So, this fella walks into a pub
wearing nothing but a hospital gown.

He walks up to the barman,
and he says, "Give me four pints,

five tequila shots
and a bottle of wine."

The barman serves him.

The fella lines all the drinks up,

and he downs them
in quick succession.

Afterwards, he says to the barman,

"I shouldn't have done that,
not with what I've got."

And the barman goes,
"Oh, no, what have you got?"

And the fella goes, "About £3.50."

LAUGHTER

That's all he had!

I'm here all week, folks.
I'm Frank Mann.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Eh?
Paco!

I've got a great one
for you now, right?

There's a monkey and a hippo
and an elephant on a desert island.

Hey, hey!

Vince, you old tart!

Aww! Oh, careful!
SHE LAUGH

So, how was your flight?

You see I paid for extra leg room?

Yeah, only cos
my agent made you, eh? Oh!

You haven't met my wife, have you?
Not this one.

Babe, can't we just, erm,
go back to the hotel?

No, no, no, I wanna see Frank.
Eh?

Talking of pubs,
oh, I went into one the other day.

Horrible, it was.

It was called The Fiddle,
ladies and gentlemen, awful pub.

In fact, it was a vile inn.
HE MOUTHS

LAUGHTER

A violin. See?
LAUGHS

So, how are the tickets selling?

Oh, like hot cakes, Vince.

I mean, we might have to do
a little bit of extra press,

you know,
just to get us over the line.

It's all good.
Whoa!

Look at this, ladies and gentlemen.

We have a celebrity
in the Laughter Lounge tonight,

presenter of Quiz Bang,
Vince Starky!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Yes.

Vince is playing five nights
at the Benidorm Palace.

Ooh!
And I've seen him live,

and I can tell you...

I've had more fun
passing kidney stones.

LAUGHTER

I've had more fun standing on plugs.
FRANK LAUGHS

We have a fantastic act for you
next, ladies and gentlemen.

Please put your hands together for
Andy Morgan and his amazing organ.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Thank you, son.
So, what have we got?

Hen do's at the back.
Nan's been on the gins.

Perfecto. I'll get a good
ten minutes out of them later.

Frank Mann.

Can I have a quick word?
Course you can.

Velocity.
FRANK LAUGHS

Hello, mate.
Hello, Vince.

Good to see you.
Oh, this is my wife, Vienna.

She is smiling,
she's just, er, topped up the Botox.

Maybe wave your hands so that
we know you're laughing, eh, love?

Say something funny, I might.
LAUGHTER

Chris.

Bloody hell. How you doing, kiddo?

I'm all right. What you doing here?

Five sell-out nights
at the Benidorm Palace, apparently.

I meant in here.
I wanted to see you, and your dad.

Would you mind?
Oh, yeah, course, love.

No, not you.
Eh?

I'm a huge fan.
Oh, no.

Course sweetheart.
All right, here we go.

CAMERA CLICKS

Thank you.
All right. You're welcome.

Can we talk?
I'm back on in five.

Please, it's important.

All right.

Son, keep Vienna company.

Try out the new routine
you've been working on.

Shall we?

So, are you a comedian as well,
then, or...?

Yeah. I do more
kind of observational stuff.

I was at the self-service checkouts
the other day, what's that about?

Please don't.
OK.

Do you know
what they're talking about?

Probably bollocks.

Joder!

Got drunk with him once.

1997.

Children in Need's after-party.

Ended up in Stringfellows.
CHUCKLES

With Pudsey.

'Mr Starky
had only been in Spain a few hours,

'having arrived
to play a run of stand-up shows

'at the Benidorm Palace.'

'Mr Starky was a much-loved
celebrity in the UK,

'and we want to assure the public

'we will have our best people
working on this.'

'Can you tell us more...?'

Good luck with that!
DOOR OPENS

Well, this is
an unexpected surprise.

All surprises
are unexpected, Dennis.

Hm. So, are you here
for my brains or my body?

Cos I'm open
to a two-for-one kind of offer.

I think I was clear
that will never happen again.

Are we talking about the sex
or the case that I solved for you?

You got lucky.

You threw a dart like a drunk man
wearing a blindfold,

and somehow,
you hit the bullseye.

And are we talking about the sex
or the case that I solved for you?

The case. The sex was adequate.

Adequate several times, from memory.

However, lucky as you were,
it is true that you displayed

an ability to see things
that perhaps others might miss.

Well done.

I can appreciate how hard
that must have been for you.

There's a lot of pressure on this
case, and I have no detectives.

And, look, I just want you
to come and look at the crime scene.

Weird, I'm sure you said
if I ever poked my nose

into police business again,

you'd shut my miserable
little pub down.

You know, you really need
to sort out those toilets.

What's going on?

I'm afraid if you want Danger Mouse,

you're gonnae have to take
Penfold as well.

We've got a new case?

Jesus, la puerta!

What? I'm a human doorstop now?

Yes.

So, this guy is a comedian?
He was a comedian.

Do you have to be so pedantic?

No, I mean he was a comedian, and
then he just presented game shows.

What shows?
Quiz Bang. Luck Be A Lady.

It was the '90s.

Guys, I can't hear you!
Puerta!

There's blood in his hair.

Madre mia, que fuerte.
Big cut on his head.

He must have been hit
with something very big and heavy.

Dennis.

Come and look.

Dennis?

I agree. He was hit
with something big and heavy.

What are you looking at?
Something big and heavy.

What is it? What's going on?

I just found the murder weapon.

The paint's faded
cos it was kept outside.

Why keep a fire extinguisher
on the roof? Good question.

To use as a doorstop.

Like we did with Jesus.
Exactly.

Only, I imagine this is better
in an emergency.

Guys! Can someone open the door?

Doesn't mean it's the murder weapon.

If it's not the murder weapon,
why chuck it off the roof?

But if it is the murder weapon, how
did they stop the door from closing?

That, I don't know.

The killer would have locked
themselves in the crime scene.

This is basically every episode
of Jonathan Creek!

It's actually quite hot up here.

I suppose we should help him.
Hm, yeah. We should.

Who owns this place?

Vince rocked up at eight,
we had a drink,

had a bit of a chat about business.

You were promoting his gigs
at the Benidorm Palace?

SCOFFS

I put the whole thing together
myself, sweetheart.

So you were making good money?

Well, I would of.
I mean, it was an absolute sellout.

Did you ever go up on the roof?

God, no. I don't do heights.
CHUCKLES

And when Vince came to the club,
was he alone?

Vince, alone? No, never.

He had his latest wife in tow,
what-do-you-call-her?

Erm... Er, Venezuela.

Actually, it's Vienna.
We've only been married a few weeks.

This was meant to be the start
of his comeback.

So you checked in here at the hotel

and went straight
to the Laughter Lounge?

Vince wanted to talk to Frank.
About what?

He wanted to tell me he had cancer
somewhere private.

On the roof?
No, in his prostate.

No, I mean where did he tell you?

Hm! Out the front of the club.

What happened after that?

Well, he went back to his hotel.
I went back inside.

What time did you leave?

Mm. The show finished at 11.
I had a drink.

And then me and Chris went home.

Chris?

Frank's my dad.

What do you know about last night?

Mm. Nothing.

The bloke, the one who died,
came in, and then he left.

That's all I know.
I didn't really talk to him.

Thirsty?

Mm. Bricking it.

Ziggy's just told me I've got
my first stand-up gig tomorrow.

Following after your old man.

You any good?

He's about as funny
as a turd in a sandpit,

but I promised Frank
I'd put him on the bill.

So now you have to cancel all of
the Benidorm Palace shows, right?

Well, I've got no choice, have I?

Jim Davidson offered to step in,
but I'm not that desperate.

What time did you leave the club?

God knows. I'm normally half-cut
way before closing.

SMOKE ALARM BEEPS
Every bloody time.

At what time did you leave
the Laughter Lounge?

Er, about half past eight.

After Vince went outside
to talk to Frank.

And you came back here to the hotel
with Vince?

Yes. I, erm... I went to bed,
but he went to the bar.

When's the last time you saw him?
Just after nine.

Er, sorry to interrupt.
These are from... Bobby Davro.

Who?

HE CHUCKLES
Just put them with the others.

Sure.

Why do you think Vince was keen to
tell you about his illness?

I think that's what happens
when you get ill.

You don't wanna put anything off.
Here, Frank.

Oh, I'll put it with the rest.
I thank you.

Other than Ziggy, does anybody else
have a key to the club?

Yeah, Paco. Yeah, the doorman.
He locks up every night.

He found Vince on the roof.
Shaken him up a bit.

Nunca habia visto un cadaver.

"I had never seen a dead body."

Toque su mano.
"I touched his hand."

Su piel roja por el sol.
"His skin was red from the sun."

Pero estaba fria.
"But cold."

Helada.
"So cold."

Dije no.
"I said no."

No.
"No."

No puedes estar muerto.
"Don't be dead."

Pero ya era muy tarde.
"But it was too late."

Estaba muerto.
"He was dead."

And what time
did he lock up the club?

A que hora cerraste el club?

A las dos de la manana.

At 2am.

When was the last time
he saw Vince alive?

Cuando fue la ultima vez
que lo visto con vida?

Quizas a las...
a las ocho y treinta.

Around 8:30.
Fuera con Frank.

He was outside with Frank.

Ahora se que la angel de la muerte
nos acechara a todos.

"Now I know we are all haunted
by the angel of death."

And what were they talking about?

De que estaban hablando?

Estaban discutiendo.

"They were arguing."

Vince estaba muy agitado.
"Vince was very agitated."

Pero con mucha vida.
"Very animated."

Que ver con el cuerpo
sin vida en el techo.

"Unlike the lifeless husk
I found on the roof."

And there definitely couldn't
have been anyone else on the roof

when he found the body?

Y seguro que no habia nadie mas
en la azotea?

Ni de cona. No habia nadie.
Era nosotros dos solos.

No.

The door to the roof.
How did he keep that open?

Como mantuvieron la puerta abierta?

El ingeniero tenia
una caja de herramientas.

"The engineer had a tool box."
Mm.

Porque haceis tantas preguntas? "Why
are you asking so many questions?"

Estais locos?
"Are you crazy?"

Un hombre esta muerto.
"A man is dead."

Ay, Dios mio.
"Oh, my God."

Aun puedo ver su cara.

"I can still see his face."

EXHALES SHARPLY

Who's Carla?
No-one.

I knew it!
You have a secret lady friend.

What's this?
This is the window of death.

The last person to see Vince alive
was Vienna, just after 9pm,

and the club was closed
at about 2am.

So at some point during this time,

somehow, Vince got on the roof
and someone killed him.

So who's your money on?
It's too early to make guesses.

Oh, come on. You saw the same as me.

Oh, I see, you wanna be all clever
and do your little show-off.

Go ahead,
what did you see that I missed?

Well, Chris, the son, drinking
like a fish to steady his nerves.

The bloke, the one who died,
came in, and then he left.

That's all I know.
I didn't really talk to him.

Never used the victim's name.
Classic sign of a guilty conscience.

Maybe.
But he was nervous for his gig. Mm.

Then Ziggy, the old lush.

Said she rarely went on the roof,
but... I don't believe her.

SMOKE ALARM BEEPS
Every bloody time. Ugh.

Lighting up in her office
set the smoke alarm off,

so I think she did go to the roof.

How do you know that?

Did you not see the black marks
on the wall

where she stubbed her fags out?

Why would Ziggy kill Vince?
He was about to make her a fortune.

I'm only pointing out
the discrepancies in her story.

Obviously, Vienna was lying.
Obviously.

And you came back here
to the hotel with Vince?

Yes.

I, erm... I went to bed,
but he went to the bar.

She said she went to bed, but did
you not see the mark on her wrist?

Sorry to interrupt.
These are from... Bobby Davro.

Who? Just...
put them with the others.

She had a stamp for Cheeky's
Foam Disco from the night before.

Why would she lie?

Don't tell me you didn't see that?

Stop asking questions
you already know the answer to.

So what next?

Well, I think another pint.

I think it's important to tell you

that I am currently finding you
very irritating.

Tomorrow, we'll go
and talk to Frank,

see what the argument with Vince
was about.

RINGING TONE

'Please leave a message
after the tone.'

BEEP
Carla, hello.

Er, sorry it's late.

I just wanted to
wish you a happy birthday.

So... happy birthday.

It's your dad, by the way.

Anyway... if you ever wanted
to give me a call,

it would be good to hear from you.

I'd like that.

So... Yeah. OK.

PHONE RINGS

Benidorm Volunteer Police Service.

I just got a call
from an insurance company

asking for more information
about Vince Starky's death.

Wife already cashing in
the life insurance, is she?

No, not his wife.
Ziggy, the comedy promotor.

She took...
CRUNCHING

She took out event insurance on
Vince's gigs at the Benidorm Palace.

'His death means she's set for
a big pay-out.' And?

It's a motive.

Well, the gigs were making her
a fortune already.

Killing him doesn't make sense.

'Thanks, though.'
DISCONNECT TONE

So, who remembers Salt & Shake?

You remember them?
MOUTHS ALONG

Them crisps that you had to add
your own salt to?

What's that about, eh?

Why do I have to
do their job for 'em?

What next,
a packet of crisps that just comes

with a raw potato inside the bag?

Can we have a word?

Uh... Er...
That was really nice, pal.

Why don't you take a break, eh?

Good lad.

We know you and Vince
argued last night.

What was that about?

Me and Vince have kept a secret
for the last 30 years.

That he was really Chris's dad.

How did you know that?

Well it was just a hunch, based on
the fact they look exactly the same.

You saw that too, right, didn't you?
Yeah. What happened?

Me and Vince were a double act
back in the day.

We called ourselves
Half Rice Half Chips.

They called us
a poor man's Little and Large.

And which one were you?

Oh, funny.
What are you two, The Krankies?

Father and son,
but actually, they were married.

Never mind. Go on.

Anyway, we did one summer
at Butlin's Minehead.

Yeah, it was great days.
Me and Vince were banging the...

We were... were sleeping
with the same Redcoat, Linda.

Yeah.

I mean, these things happen.
We were young.

But me and Linda ended up
falling in love,

only to find out that she was
pregnant with Vince's kid.

How do you know
that it wasn't yours?

Well, I'll spare you the details,

but, er, I had a very serious bout
of mumps as a kid.

My testes swelled up to more
than four times their usual size.

I mean, from this angle,

looked like
a one-eared space hopper.

Thank you
for sparing me the details

I mean, I have always fired blanks.

But Linda,
she still wanted to keep the baby,

and I realised that, well,

it was probably my last chance
of being a dad,

so we all agreed together,
as a three,

that me and Linda
should raise the kid as our own

and nobody else
needed to know the truth.

I mean, not even our Chris.

And you never told him?

And then Vince went off to do telly.
I carried on working the clubs.

Me and Linda split up, and then
Chris went to live with her.

So why now?

Why did Vince want Chris to know
the truth after all this time?

I think being ill scared him.
He said he wanted Chris to know.

But I'd only just got him back
in MY life, you know?

Telling Chris the truth
would have ruined all that.

Yeah, and I told Vince as much.
It got a bit heated.

B-But I was compering the show,
you know?

I've got a room full of people
that can tell you that.

I never saw Vince again
after that moment,

and that is the God's honest truth.

So Vince was going to set off
a big truth bomb.

Maybe he was killed to keep quiet.

KNOCK AT DOOR
What are you doing?

Just taking a wee keek
before we leave.

"Keek"? What is this?
You can't just make up words.

You know, maybe for the next
few minutes, we just don't talk?

You know, Frank says a roomful
of people can vouch for him,

but he was only the compere
of the shows,

so he was only introducing the acts.

Plenty of time
when he was not on stage

when he could have killed Vince.

His alibi means nothing.

Help me find the key for this.

DISTANT BUZZING

What's that buzzing?

I dread to think.

Eurgh.

No.

Eurgh!

BUZZING INTENSIFIES

Surely you wash it after you use it.

SHE SIGHS

Ah-ha. There it is.

So what do you think about Frank?
He could have killed Vince, right?

Maybe. But then there's Vienna.

Please can we leave?
HE BLOWS LIPS

Why Vienna?

Because she's the brand-new wife,
and Vince was worth a few bob.

Really, Dennis?

What a tired old stereotype,
the gold-digging wife.

Maybe she married him for,
I don't know, love?

Maybe she's already a millionaire.

Well, if she wasn't before,
she certainly is now.

And we need to know
what she was doing last night.

We should speak to Jackie.

Who's Jackie?

This is Jackie.

You're in my light.

Jackie, this is Dennis.

SHE SIGHS

Apparently, you know the word
on the street. What?

We need some information.
What is he saying?

We were wondering if you knew
anything about Vince Starky.

Oh, waste of money.
I sold three tickets.

You were selling tickets
to his show?

I sell tickets to all the shows.

Who is Messy Nessy?

Like Sticky Vicky,
but not so classy.

So Vince's show wasn't selling?

Is he all right?

He looks like a hot bollock.

He's fine. He's from Scotland.
Where?

Never heard of it.

Jackie, did you say that Vince's
show wasn't selling any tickets?

Ziggy said it was a sellout.

Sellout? Pfft!
Oh, no.

Oh, so you do understand
what I'm saying?

What?

Seriously? What is her problem?

RINGING TONE

'Este es el buzon
de Maria Hernandez.

'Deja tu mensaje
despues de la senal.'

BEEP
Er, Maria, hi, this is Dennis.

I'm gonna need something from you,

the CCTV footage
from Vincent's hotel for last night.

Oh, and a photograph of you in the
bath coquettishly holding a loofah.

That last one is crucial

if we're gonna have any chance
of solving this.

OK. Thanks.

So, I spoke to
the box office manager.

Vince Starky had sold
less than 25% of his tickets

for his five-night run.

So the man who hosted
Celebrity Quiz Bang

is no longer
a big box-office success.

It means Ziggy was about to lose
her deposit.

She would have owed the theatre
thousands of euros.

That's on top of the thousands
of euros that she already owes.

So now what?

Well, I don't know about you,
but I'm pretty hungry.

Ooh, yes, let's get sushi.
Or a Chinese?

Sushi's like Chinese, but healthy.

Chinese is like sushi, but nice.

Come on, Dennis, just open your mind
a little bit. For me?

TV PLAYS

Postmortem results.

Victim died of blunt force trauma.

Mm.

Gone right off that.
We got the CCTV from the hotel.

It shows Vince and Vienna return
to the hotel having a big argument.

About what?
There was no sound,

but we got a lip reader
to translate.

Here's a transcript.

Vienna - I can't believe
you're doing this.

Vince - please, babe,
this is important to me.

Vienna -
you said when we got married

it was just gonna be me and you.

He'll move in with us,
and I'm not sharing you with some -

expletive deleted -
lanky - expletive deleted -

streak of - expletive deleted,

expletive deleted,
expletive deleted - piss.

Do you know what this is about?

Vince told you the truth
about Chris, didn't he?

That he was his real dad
and wanted to be part of his life.

Yeah. So?

"So"? It's motive.

The CCTV showed you
get out of the lift,

but Vince goes back down
and exits the hotel.

Do you know where he went?

He said he was going to get
another drink. And you?

You said you went to bed.

I...
Don't bother lying.

I left a perfectly acceptable plate
of pork balls for this.

You went out, didn't you?

I wanted some fun.
That is not a crime.

I mean, you know what it's like,

us young guys,
we like to make party, yeah?

Not really.

Did you see Vince again
after he left you at the lift? No.

Because there's a theory
kicking about

that you only married Vince
for his money,

and when you found out
there was someone else

you'd have to share it with,
you followed him to the club,

got him onto the roof and killed him

before he could tell Chris
the truth.

Then you went out and drank your
guilt away at Cheeky's Foam Disco.

Well, let me give you
another theory -

that I went out to unwind,

as people do
at a foam party disco and casino,

and when I woke up the next morning,

I found that the love of my life
had been brutally murdered.

And to make matters worse,

I am accused of killing him
by some weird Scottish homeless man.

What do you think?
Maybe just have a shave.

LAUGHTER

And she says, "Why do you think
I chose the pink ones?"

My favourite is chicken Tarka.

It's like a chicken tikka,

Right, then,
first act out tonight

on his comedy career.

He's a brilliant talent,

Aww.

So with that in mind, please give

to Chris Mann!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Kids, eh? When they're little,
you just wanna eat 'em, don't you?

But when they grow up,
you wish you had.

LAUGHTER

Chris?

Where the bloody hell are you?

Thought you had a gig?

It was me.

I killed him.

Now, in your own time, just...
tell us what happened.

Dad... was on stage.

I'm behind the bar.

I look up, and I see Vince
has come back in to the club.

And he told me
he wanted to talk to me.

Said it was important,
it had to be somewhere quiet.

So I told him to meet me
up on the roof.

Had you been on the roof before?

Er, yeah. Yeah, we...
We take our breaks up there.

Just as a matter of interest,
how did you keep the door open?

We used a fire extinguisher.

Oh...

Please go on.

Vince said he wished
it didn't have to be like this,

but once he realised he had to tell
me the truth, he couldn't settle.

It had to be now.

He said the gigs in Benidorm
meant nothing to him.

The real reason he was here
was for me...

...cos I'm his son.

Then what happened?

I just couldn't get my head
around it.

All these people in my life
who are meant to love me...

were liars.

My whole life, they'd been liars.

Then Vince said something like,
"This is a good thing..."

...and I just flipped.

I went mental, proper raging.

Don't touch me!

This is a good thing.
For who?

'And I pushed him.

'Just once, I swear.
It were only once.'

CHRIS SNIFFLES

I panicked.

And then I ran.

And then when I heard the next day
he was dead...

I... I just couldn't say anything.

HE SOBS

Hey, don't cry.

I meant arrest him.

So you just pushed him?

You didn't whack him over the head
with the fire extinguisher?

No.

Hey, you can't be right every time.

There's something else
going on here.

Dennis, he confessed.

Turn the TV on, watch your sport.

I'm sorry, Dad.

It's all right.
It's all right, pal...

Hey, it's gonna be all right.

because of his cancer diagnosis.

So he told Chris
that he was his real dad.

Hang on, he said what?

Chris got angry, pushed Vince,
who fell back and hit his head.

You killed your dad?
No, he didn't.

But you literally just said
that Vince was his dad!

He was. But Chris didn't kill him.

Is anyone else confused?

When Vince's body was found,
his arms were red with sunburn.

But in a photo taken the night
before he died, his arms were fine.

Meaning he must have been alive
on the roof when the sun came up.

How do you know that?

Because dead people don't sunburn.

I know, right?!
Every day's a school day.

After Chris pushed Vince,
he might have looked dead,

but he was only unconscious.

Paco locked up the club at 2am.

He thought everyone had gone.

But someone
was still in the building.

You were in so much debt

you had to give up your apartment
and sleep in your office.

The Benidorm Palace gigs

were supposed to solve
all your problems, but...

...Vince just wasn't
the box-office draw he once was.

SCOFFS
Oh, that is hilarious.

That is the funniest thing
I've heard in years.

Not surprising.
I've been to your club.

Hey, all right, mate.

When the sun came up
the following day,

Vince was still alive, still lying
on the roof where he fell.

And he stayed there,
burning in the sun,

until Ziggy came out onto the roof
for her first fag of the day.

Come on, you don't know that.

No, but I can make
a pretty good guess.

You couldn't smoke in the office
cos it set off the alarm,

and there's black circles on
the wall where you stubbed them out.

Deductive reasoning.

Actually, it's
inductive reasoning, because...

Dennis...
Sorry.

Anyway, when you got out there,
you found Vince.

Bloody hell, what happened to you?

HE GROANS SOFTLY

Hang on, hang on,
I'll-I'll get you some help.

And then you realised
this was an opportunity.

Vince's gigs weren't selling.
You were gonna lose the lot.

But if Vince died,
the event insurance would pay out.

And there he was,
half dead on your roof.

Nobody knew
you were in the building.

If he died,
all your problems would be over.

You just needed to make sure he did.

THUD

He probably
didn't even know you were there.

After you killed him, you
had to get rid of the murder weapon.

And, in a panic,
you threw it off the roof.

But without the doorstop,
you were locked up there,

at the scene of your own crime.

So you called an engineer out
for the air-con

and gave them Paco's number
to open up.

Then you took your chance to escape.

What a bloody mess.

I knew I should've booked
Joe Pasquale.

Mind, it's a long time
since I've been in a pair of these.

LAUGHTER

So, in Benidorm,
we have a lot of tourists.

Hands up if you're on holiday.

Have you noticed how the new
tourists look just like zombies?

They're all staggering round
in packs,

all white and pale with dark eyes,
on the hunt for cheap beer.

LAUGHTER

Invasion
Of The Boddingtons Snatchers...

Where are you from, madam?

Blackpool? Is this your husband?

I think that's what they call
unconditional love.

You have kids?

No.

35 years, ladies and gentlemen.
Give them a round of applause.

Thanks for your help.

Technically, I only asked you
to look at the crime scene.

You know you're not getting paid.

Justice is the only reward I seek.

No, it's not. You asked
for a picture of me in the bath.

That's optional.
Could be the shower.

THEY LAUGH

What about you, you got kids?

No.

No kids.

Ladies and gentlemen, you've got
a cracking night of comedy

in store for you
at the Laughter Lounge tonight.

Thank you, all.
I've been Chris Mann.

Have a good night.
CHEERS

Look at him, eh!

Told you. Well done, kidda!

That's my son.
HE CHUCKLES

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

I've got a big surprise
for you guys!

This has made the whole
weekend magical.

SHE MUTTERS PRAYER
"Need your help."

Estupendo, another case!

Do you really think
it was one of her friends?

Listen to me,
if you know what's good for you,

you'll keep your mouth shut.

This is so cool.

Are you some kind
of special investigators?

We are simply trying to help the
Spanish police find who did this.

We're looking for information.
About the Irish woman?

What are you doing here?
Does this feel right to you?

They're all liars, Dennis!

You look like
you could use another drink.
