All language subtitles for The Sweeney S2E7 Golden Fleece 25FPS

Resync and corrections By Chuck

[Ray] Sweet.

Get the Lone Ranger.

[Colin] Don't they look sweet?

[Ray] Better give them
their early morning call.

[Colin] Here she blows.

[shotgun firing]

[glass smashing]

God almighty!

[Colin] Right, Mr.
Cowley, stand and deliver,

your money or your wife.

[screaming]

On second thoughts,

we'll just settle for the money.

[screaming]

Right, out you get, Mr. Cowley,

you're gonna go downstairs,

the lady stays here, would you mind?

Your cash, gold, jewels,
anything that's nice.

[screaming]

Now you look as if you'd like
to spend a penny, Mrs. Cowley.

There's your bathroom.

[Chủ đề Sweeney]

[Mr. Earle] 3.79 thousand
million dollars' worth of gold,

-out there somewhere.
-Is that so?

That's only half as much as Belgium,

only about a third as much as Holland

and well, only about a
fifth as much as France.

And America?

Big Daddy of course,

49,000 million dollars' worth.

Makes the wife's wedding ring

and my bridgework seem insignificant.

Only about 80,000 tons
mined since the world began.

Yes, you could put in
all on one supertanker,

but if you did, 10 to one the
name on it would be Greek.

-Ha!
-Sorry to interrupt,

but these have just arrived, Mr. Earle.

Excuse me.

This is Miss Collier, my assistant,

Detective Chief Inspector
Haskins of the Flying Squad.

Yes, we met when Mr. Haskins arrived.

Yes.

[Mr. Earle] Good response to the ad?

Hm, some nice orders, five of 10 and more.

Gold coins, sovereigns,

they started minting
them again last November.

What about Kruger Rands?

I remember reading a lot about them.

Well, there's still a market in them,

it's just that, well,

we're not allowed to import them anymore.

Selling 99 pounds, buying 96.

What about the bit in the middle?

Oh, we call that the spread,
helps pay for that view.

Are you interested in Kruger
Rands, Chief Inspector?

At that price, only professionally.

Oh.

I'll check these, Judy, call you back.

Yes, of course, good morning, Mr. Haskins.

Is business good?

It's leveled off at the moment,

the Kruger Rands alone are running

at about nine million pounds
worth a week and lasting.

Any free samples?

Sorry, we can stretch
to a brochure though.

[electronic beeping]

Anyway, thanks a lot to the Flying Squad,

saved us a lot of red faces

and a lot of money.

[Frank] Well, if you ever
get a consignment of gold

caught in the dock strike
again, you'll know what to do,

-won't you?
-I certainly will.

[traffic rumbling]

-What did she say?
-Nothing,

she doesn't know anything.

What did you pay her for then?

Well, her little girl's
been ill, hasn't she?

Oh, yeah.

Straight up, guv, she
hasn't even got the bread

to go and visit her old man.

[Jack] Where is he?

Durham Maximum Security.

How much she sting you for?

Just a ticket.

How much?

11 quid, 11.24.

11 quid?

The Salvation Army, that's
where you should be.

I've been over this a
dozen times, Inspector, er?

Regan, well, that was the local CID,

-I'm from the Flying Squad.
-All we need now is Interpol.

Yes well, I'm sorry Mr.
Cowley, but this is the tenth

in a series of almost identical break ins.

Look, there's nothing
fresh I can tell you,

-instead of standing--
-They knew your name.

Aye, the tall one, he
called me Mr. Cowley.

What were the exact words?

He said, "Stand and deliver."

You're kidding.

Now look here, Inspector, er?

Regan.

I'm not usually inaccurate,
he said, "Stand and deliver,"

-and he was an Australian.
-Australian?

Are you sure?

I'm positive, Regan.

Inspector.

[upbeat electronic music]

That's all fixed, yours is
the one with the squint.

Great, thanks for nothing.

I had a clock at Bruce's place,

I'm taking mine down the club first,

so the flat's all yours.

-Me and the squint?
-Well, turn the light out.

I think I'd better.

Not again.

I was only trying to talk to her, honest.

Hey, we made the lunchtime
editions, did you know that?

[Ray] Does it say how much?

25 grand.

They spin a good yarn, don't they?

Look out, here comes Stand Back.

What is this, a union meeting?

Anzac Day.

Don't give me that,
Anzac Day was last week.

It's every week, right, Ray?

Right, Colin, every week.

The squash courts need sweeping.

That's right.

Well, get up off your fat
Antipodes and do some work.

I suppose you wouldn't care to repeat that

in front of the Race Relations Board?

[Mr. Simpkins] Work!

[Colin] Poof!

♪ The magic dragon lived by the sea ♪

Hey, Gwen we're all
gonna crowd in the sauna.

Gonna play squash.

Put your glasses on, for God's sake.

So the ball's at the end of his boot,

it's ballooned in over the goalie's head,

it couldn't be sweeter if he tried.

Guv, do you think 11.24
was stronging it a bit?

Yeah, she saw you coming, George,

one look at those baby blue eyes.

-Jack, George.
-Yeah.

Come through, would you?

Oh, bring your coffee.

Coffee.

Here, love, do us a favor, will you,

phone up King's Cross and find out

the return fare to Durham.

Who wants, Chief Inspector Haskins,

that's who wants to know, thank you.

[Frank] Oh, what about the
metal dealer's trailer?

Nothing, and that's what will
be on it, when we find it.

28 cartons of hypodermic needles.

Junkies' knitting.

Security guard shot and
wounded in Maida Vale.

-Rent and rates money.
-Cheers, son.

Well, how have you been getting on?

Well, none of our regulars know anything.

None of the jobs have a recognizable MO,

at least none that fits any known firm.

Fresh talent, do you reckon?

Yeah, they're talented alright,

10 jobs, not one ricket.

Cowley, that's the man
who was done last night,

he reckons one of them is an Aussie.

Bash a Pommy a day?

Is he sure about the accent?

[Jack] Positive.

Australian shoplifting, yes, but.

Maybe it's an Aussie
firm with the heat on,

they've come over here for
a bit of peace and quiet.

Yeah, the law's a lot tougher
on known cons over there,

they've only got to meet in the street

and they're planning a job.

This shotgun trick, they've
used that every time.

Yes, amateur night, isn't it?

Well, it's flash,

it's like that, "Stand and deliver" crack,

could be Aussies, come to think about it.

Alright, we'll cable Canberra,

the question is how are they
getting their information?

10 jobs and each one
grossing at least 10 grand.

And they knew his name was Cowley.

Whoever they are, they're well briefed.

Insurance company, it's
that sort of gen, innit?

[phone ringing]

Haskins.

A return fare to Durham is 11 pounds 24.

Oh, that's for me, sir, sorry.

Thank you very much.

What is it now, collecting train numbers?

[Stifles Laughter]

♪ Something in the way I smile ♪

[Old-Timey piano music]

-Looks beautiful.
-It does now.

Gets what you pay for in this life.

Yeah and I paid for new
tires, new cylinder head,

stiffer dampers, stronger valve springs.

[Vince] Yeah, you polished
inside the money folds?

Waste of time, Vince.

How's Mushaira doing then?

Fine, "God's in his Heaven and
all's right with the world,"

that's poetry.

- That's poetry.

- That's poetry.

You think we all come from
cow college, don't you,

-you cultured people?
-Oh, leave it out, Colin.

What do you want this
time, Jerry, shooter?

Nothing so simple, mate.

There's this copper,
he's getting too close,

we want him fixed, stitched up tight.

I don't know, that comes expensive.

That much we know.

[beer can exploding]

The point is,

can he be fixed?

Well, when do you want it done?

Like yesterday.

Who's he with?

The Sweeney.

Oh, great, what's his name?

Haskins, he's a DCI.

Oh, him, I know him, don't I?

Finest cop money can buy.

What, thin streak of
nothing, going bald on top?

That's him.

Well, it won't be easy.

They never are.

-I know I haven't got long.
-No.

Well, I'll have to do it myself, you see.

Why spread the fee?

We'll pay you 20% of the next job we do.

Now the thing is afterwards, I mean,

I'll be what they say,
a bit persona non grata,

I mean, they won't give me the MBE

and send me home in a taxi, will they?

Yeah, we've been thinking
about that, Vince,

now your old lady, she lives
in Canada, Montreal, right?

Yeah.

Well, we'll bang in the air ticket

as an extra bit of fun for you.

You will?

Today's Saturday, right,
get your skates on,

you could be in Canada, ooh, Tuesday.

-Just like that?
-Just like that.

And that's not all,

you play your cards right,

Jude might just go with you.

Oh, leave off!

No, word is she singed her tights

last time she saw you
down the Kangaroo Club.

-Get away.
-Straight up.

That's right.

Double baked jam roll,

I don't know where you put it, Jack.

Soldiers march on their stomachs.

Who said that?

Napoleon?

Oh yeah, they also carried
Field Marshalls' batons

in their bags.

Hm, that and baked jam
roll, no wonder they lost.

[background chattering]

Frank, there's a rumor
sweeping the office.

What happened to Doris?

There's a rumor going round the office.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, that you've been offered a job

at one of the big clearing banks,

help set up their security department.

Do you fancy a bigger desk, Jack?

Just curious.

When you've got 25 years on the clock,

you start to look around, don't you?

Do you?

Two lots of school fees
three times a year.

-I'll get this.
-Cheers, Frank.

Ah, thanks, Jack.

Are you seeing your daughter today?

No, no, tomorrow's my turn.

[church bells ringing nearby]

[radio broadcasting pop music]

-Morning.
-Good morning.

Come on, Doreen, hurry
up, we're gonna be late.

[Doreen] Coming.

Have you got some silver
for the collection?

Yes, dear.

-You didn't have last time.
-That was last time.

-Now do I need an umbrella?
-No, dear.

-Have you locked the back?
-Yes, dear.

-Oh, have you got the--
-Got the car keys.

[background chattering]

Have you had enough to eat?

Now this afternoon, what about
Greenwich, the Cutty Sark?

No Cutty Sark.

Hydrofoil trip?

Where's it go to?

Greenwich.

I said I didn't want to go to Greenwich.

You did, what about Madame
Tussauds, Chamber of Horrors?

(Roaring)

I've been with Mummy.

The Tower, yeah, Beefeaters,
ravens, dungeons.

Been with the school.

[sighing]

[phone ringing]

Hello.

[phone pips beeping]

[Wally] 8406?

No, you've got 8404.

Oh, sorry.

[Jack] That's alright.

[phone beeping/ lite electronic music?]

[phone ringing]

Hello.

-[phone pips beeping]
-8406?

No, I'm sorry, mate, you've
got the wrong number.

[Susie] The zoo?

Oh, no.

Why not?

I'll start to look like that gorilla.

Alright then, Regents Park it is.

Oh, thanks.

You go and spend a penny, it's
gonna be a long afternoon.

[footsteps ascending stairs]

[phone disconnection humming]

You need some new shoes.

You know that bank only
want me for my contacts.

You're too modest, Frank,

that's only part of what
you've got to offer.

It'd be nice to be my own
boss though, wouldn't it?

Well, don't put that in there.

I never do put that in there.

It'd be worth it to get away
from Regan and that lot,

you'd be much happier.

[mellow dramatic music]

[phone ringing]

Haskins.

Hello, Mr. Haskins, it's Wally Vince here,

I'm sorry to disturb you of a Sunday.

[Frank] That's alright, Wally.

Look, I've got some info
for you, urgent like.

Call me at the office tomorrow, will you?

Come on, governor, I said urgent.

[Frank] How did you get my home phone?

It's to do with these blaggings.

[Frank] Which blaggings?

Well, I'm on about a pair of
flash boys from Down Under

was out grafting in
Gerrards Cross last Tuesday.

Oh, yes?

You know the football ground, London Road?

[Frank] Yes, I do.

Yeah, well, it's near
where you live, isn't it?

I'll see you there in 10 minutes,

carpark near the main gate.

-Wally, just a--
-[phone disconnecting]

[sighing]

Who was that?

A young tearaway called Wally Vince.

Who are you calling now?

Jack Regan.

It'd be nice to have one
Sunday together, wouldn't it?

Not often we can park
the kids for the day.

-[engaged phone beeping]
-Oh, damn.

Even bank frauds don't stop
for the Sabbath, do they?

Get me the car out,
Doreen, would you, please?

What about Box Hill,
it'll be crowded later?

Yes, I'll be back in time, don't worry.

[sighing]

-[engaged phone beeping]
-Oh, no.

How long you been working here, Wally?

[Wally] Oh, about six months.

Well, I wish I'd known before,

still, I know where to
come for tickets in future.

Anytime, governor.

I didn't know you'd
taken up snouting, Wally.

Oh, needs must, Mr. H.

Alright then, what have you got for me?

First of all, there will be
some insurance, won't there?

Probably.

Well?

Check, see if any of the numbers

match with any of those nicked on Tuesday.

I don't know if they've got
a note of those numbers.

They're in sequence, Mr. H.

I'll take that, Chief Inspector.

[Suspenseful music!]

Who the hell are you?

Detective Chief Superintendent Pettiford.

[Frank] Of where?

A10.

Nice one, Wally.

Truth will out, Mr. Haskins.

We'll go in my car, my
driver will take yours.

Thank you, Mr. Vince, we'll keep in touch.

Will I be suspended?

Ask me that again in an hour's time.

[birds twittering]

[birds twittering]

-Mrs. Haskins?
-Yes.

This the kitchen?

Freezer, tumble dryer,
automatic washing machine,

dishwasher, nice kitchen.

[Doreen] Who are these men?

A10, Complaints Against Police
Investigation Department.

Mrs. Haskins, you work
in a bank, don't you?

-Yes.
-Could you show me

your payslips, please,
PAYE, bank statements,

et cetera, et cetera,
there's no immediate hurry,

but if you could do it as
soon as possible, please.

I've been set up, you know.

Possibly, what were you
doing at the football ground?

-I went to see Wally Vince.
-A known villain.

They're the ones with the information.

-A regular contact?
-No, not regular.

Then what were you
doing there on your own?

I tried to contact one of
my DIs and his Sergeant.

And?

Both numbers were engaged.

How unfortunate.

Excuse me.

Are these all the shares you have?

Yes, all, you'll find the total cost

written on the back of the envelope.

Three building society accounts.

Isn't that rather excessive?

One is mine, one is my wife's.

And this one,

248 pounds?

Which is also in my name.

I had noticed.

It's a special float for
holidays, my wife's birthday,

things like that.

Came as rather a surprise
to your wife, I thought.

-Aren't I right, Mrs. Haskins?
-Well, I--

She didn't know anything about it,

it should have come as a surprise.

I see.

[quirky Electronic music]

[Colin] You see, I've got this rule.

[Ray] What rule is that?

If she puts out on the first date,

-then she's a tramp.
-And that's what Judy did?

Yep, turned me right off.

Before or after?

After.

[Ray] Well, you needn't
have taken her up on it.

What sort of a dingbat do you take me for?

-So goodbye, Judy.
-Yep. [sighing]

Enter Gwendoline.

Now Gwen, I could talk to.

You know something, Colin,

I've never been able to talk to a Sheila.

Yeah, marvelous chats, we used to have.

So what was wrong with Gwen?

-Cow copped me.
-Oh.

How?

Well, wouldn't let me touch her.

-Beaut.
-Not a finger.

What did you do?

What could I do?

Went back with Judy.

[birds twittering]

[DCS Pettiford] When was it last painted?

In the autumn, 300 odd quid.

You've kept the receipts, have you?

They're in the house somewhere.

Hmph.

They don't believe in
half measures, do they?

Is this part of the frame up?

Well, of course, it's all circumstantial.

Not all of it, the
Commissioner got a phone call

from Vince's brief.

Making certain allegations.

-Which is why--
-Which is why

you started the investigation, yes.

Now get your receipt for those things,

then we'll go back to the Yard

and I shall recommend you be
suspended by the Commander

pending further investigations.

Not only does it bring
discredit to the Squad,

but to the whole Metropolitan force.

[George] But you can't operate
unless you break the rules,

everybody knows that.

-Do they?
-Course they do.

The odd sir, Sergeant is
a gesture of goodwill.

Sorry, sir.

There's a difference, Sergeant

between breaking the rules
and breaking the law.

But some slag's word against
his, it's a disgrace!

Don't sound off at me, Sergeant,
I'm telling you the facts

and steer clear of him, both of you,

otherwise you'll find
yourselves suspended.

If A10 want to talk and they
will, think before you let fly

and for God's sake, leave it to them,

you're in the Flying
Squad, not the US Cavalry.

Objectivity, that's what
I expect from my officers

at all times.

Yes, sir.

I wish I'd been to Oxford,
I'd be a Commander at 36.

I must say, you really
spoke up for us, didn't you?

Oh, shut your rabbit, George.

Oh, dear, I've heard of keeping stumm.

-Well, what's that?
-Well, look.

A ton.

-So?
-Two days ago

I had lunch with Haskins,

when I went to get the
coats, that was in my pocket.

-Who have you told?
-You.

You don't believe that, do you?

Christ, he's too square to be bent!

Calm down, son.

Now look, maybe it was
planted to make me suspicious,

maybe it wasn't the wrong pocket,

but ask yourself two questions,

why him and why now?

[typewriter keys tapping]

He threatened to pull the
wife's brother in, you see.

-Who was that?
-Butlin, Barry Butlin.

Any previous?

Form as long as your arm.

Haskins was gonna fit Barry up

for the Croydon warehouse blag.

-And the money was a bribe?
-Yeah,

couple of ton in readies, he says or else,

like his own private Lifeboat Day.

Well, we have your
statement, that'll be enough,

for the present.

[birds twittering]

[light melodic music]

You haven't shaved.

Well, I'm not going anywhere, am I?

Man in a car outside.

Yes, the Gestapo, A10,

the boys who keep us on
the straight and narrow.

Frank, about that other
building society account.

[Frank] Hm, I wondered when
you'd get around to that.

What is it?

It's a bit late to start
distrusting me now, isn't it?

It's cash for my helpers, informants.

Why?

'Cause otherwise they'd
blow it all in one go

and get their throats cut.

-I thought.
-Hm,

I can imagine.

Why don't you just sit
down, write to the bank

and tell them you accept the job?

That'd be great, wouldn't it?

What's stopping you?

Because I can't put my papers in,

while I'm under suspension

without the Commissioner's permission.

Who says?

The rules do.

Alright, so how long will it take?

Well, from memory,

the Times bribery allegation
lasted just over a year.

Christ!

[birds twittering]

[Ray] I like it, I like it.

[melodic piano music]

-So so.
-It's great.

I prefer the pistach they did in Nice.

Not the ice cream, Colin,
I'm talking about the house.

Yeah, I like the house well enough.

What about the Sheila doing the garden?

[Colin] I'd let her
force my rhubarb any day.

[Ray] Burglar alarm?

I know that system, you
break the door down,

you've got about ooh, five seconds

to get the phone off the hook.

And if you don't?

The alarm sounds in the local nick.

[Ray] Five seconds, is that right?

[Colin] Five seconds.

[Ray] Tasty.

[Colin] Very.

[Ray] Feel like giving it a whirl?

Tempting.

No, scrub it, see that sign?

What's it say?

Beware of the Dog.

Put your glasses on, Ray.

Beware of the Au Pair.

There's got to be a link, George.

That's what Darwin said.

Darwin?

Yeah, I've been doing a
lot of reading recently,

the evenings get a bit long now.

Hey look, George, you know
that new air hostess of mine?

Well, she's got a friend.

Yeah well, cheers, guv, but
I've met those friends before.

No, no, no, you remember
Martine Carol, the film star?

What, Martine Carol?

Yeah.

My Granny's favorite.

Alright, Peter Pan.

Right, 10 jobs, what
have they got in common?

Here's the file,

I wanna know everything about the victims,

banks, clubs, kids'
schools, business interests.

-We've done all that!
-Well, we'll do it again,

there's obviously something we've missed.

I've got an appointment.

Hello, it's DS Carter.

Yeah, could you get my car
round to the front, please?

[mellow melodic music]

[birds twittering]

[doorbell ringing]

Jack!

Don't look surprised
and don't take too long,

this is knackering me.

I'll put this here.

Next time you see me,
I'll read the gas meter.

-Whose van is it?
-Oh, it's a mate of mine's.

How are you feeling?

Do you want it with adjectives or without?

Oh, I heard the door.

Ah, you know Jack Regan, don't you, dear?

-We've met.
-Morning, Mrs. Haskins.

-Tea, coffee, something?
-No, thanks, governor,

we'll make this as brief as possible.

I'll leave you to it.

Obviously somebody thought you were gonna

-feel their collar.
-Not somebody, Jack, them,

the shotgun mob, the Aussie firm.

Who fingered you?

Wally Vince.

Woeful Wally, he couldn't tell the truth,

if his neck depended on it.

You try telling that to A10.

Anyway he's as thick as two short planks,

he couldn't put this together.

Well, just do me a favor,
Jack, don't lean on him,

it's more than my job's worth.

Yeah, that's what they call well stitched.

Keep your eyes peeled, George.

Desk first.

Hasn't done his cactus any harm, has it?

[Snorts]

Dear me, you can tell A10
have been here, can't you?

-Hello.
-What's that?

Protect yourself with gold,

each Kruger Rand contains
one tri ounce of gold.

Gold coins?

Buying price, 96 pounds each.

Haskins hasn't got the money

to spend on that sort of thing, has he?

Warburton's of London.

[Colin] Eight o'clock at Mal's place.

-Oh, party?
-Yeah, you've got to bring

a bottle, a bird and an alarm clock.

[Ray] Oh, beaut!

[Colin] Hello, hello, hello.

Put your glasses on, Ray.

Very pretty.

[cooking food bubbling]

Want any knives sharpening, lady?

[Doreen] If I did, I'd
know where to stick 'em.

[birds twittering]

You've missed him, he's gone for a walk.

Yeah, I thought so, his
boyfriend's missing.

Might have something better to do.

How is he?

Bitter.

[sighing]

Thank you for what you're doing for him.

-Trying to do.
-Well, he's grateful,

we're both grateful, when
you most need moral support,

you suddenly find yourself
in a leper colony.

Like that, is it?

The phone doesn't ring, no
letters, no callers, nothing.

There's a beer in the
fridge, if you'd like one.

Ta.

Cheers.

[cooking alarm ringing]

Ta.

How are the kids?

Lucy's put a P.S. in her prayers.

Well, it's nice to know
someone's rooting for you.

She's not praying that he gets off, oh no,

she's praying that it
doesn't get into the papers.

What's gonna happen?

-It'll fizzle out.
-Do you think?

Yeah.

I'll tell you what it's not gonna be,

it's not gonna be another
bed in the Psychiatric Wing

of St. Thomas' and a Sick pension,

oh no, not if I've got
anything to do with it.

That DCS from, what do you call it, A10,

sanctimonious, you'd think
he'd invented the word,

talked about the book as though
it was the New Testament!

[sighing]

I'm sorry, you didn't come here to--

No, it's alright, it's alright.

Frank won't talk about it, you see,

he just sits there and festers,

then you read that eight out
of 10 of the general public

think that the police are bent.

Oh no, no, no, there's
a new report out now,

didn't you know?

Yeah, it cost 95,000 quid,

it says "the public loves us madly."

I could tell it a different way

[sighing]

and a lot cheaper.

I'll only be two minutes, I promise you.

[background chattering]

[electronic humming]

Cheers.

Thanks.

-Ugh!
-It's condensation.

Business.

Yeah, it can ruin your love life.

How many?

-Another five.
-All good?

Should be, they all bought 5,000 plus.

Oh, great!

What shall we say this
time, a grand apiece?

You said that last time.

Let's try seven and a half for the five.

No, it's too strong.

-Everyone a winner.
-Look, have you any idea

how many burglar alarms, Alsatian dogs

these jokers have got?

Not to mention au pair girls,

we're lucky to make two
hits every five addresses.

Alright, seven then.

Six.

And a half.

Done.

Is this your bodyguard?

Two minutes, McGruder,

the badminton net, remember?

Git.

♪ Along, little doggie, get along ♪

Who's that?

I don't know, I've never seen him before.

What did we say, six, was it?

And a half.

Oh.

Soon be time to make like the Arabs, Col,

fold our tents and steal away.

That's what we are doing, stealing away.

My father had a formula for success,

always save a bit for the next man.

Yeah, my old man used to say ,

"Never come down from the tree, son,

"till you've picked the
last of them apples."

What happened to him?

He died.

-Oh.
-In jail.

My father's got his own Cayman Island

and he takes a new 17-year old mistress

-every January the 1st.
-Hey, is that right?

-Hm.
-Why is it, Judy

that everything we do is
either illegal or immoral?

I don't know, ask Ray.

Put your glasses on.

Single stone, claw set
on 18 carat white gold,

expanding shank, 1340 pounds.

French marble clock, ormolu
mounts and pendulum, 500 pounds.

A signed dry plant by
The Castle, 1200 pounds.

Four 18th century snuff boxes, 3,500.

Now have you got all of that down?

Were you a collector?

Only as a hedge against inflation.

Any items on this list
bought in the same place?

-No.
-What about these gold coins?

-100 Kruger Rands.
-What were they worth?

About 10,000 pounds.

Where did you get them from?

Dealer in the city, Warburton's.

Warburton's?

These people?

Aye.

And a light and bitter.

How are you?

[quiet background sounds]

Governor.

I see you've brought your
little friend with you.

Oh, I can't go anywhere without him.

Well, what is this, a wake?

We think we've found
the common denominator.

Well, tell me more.

Warburton's, remember the name?

Bullion house in the city.

What were you doing there, guv?

It was that attempted
snatch, do you remember,

the one down by the docks?

-During the strike?
-Yes.

You missed out there, Jack.

Yeah, I lost my crowbar that week.

Well, we think the answer is Kruger Rands.

What?

11 victims so far,

11 people who'd bought Kruger Rands.

So have thousands, Jack, I
mean, every pundit in the city

recommended people to put some
of their savings into gold.

Yeah, but they didn't all buy their coins

at Warburton's, did they?

Warburton's?

11 victims, 11 clients of Warburton's.

Spot the leak and we're on our way.

How does this help me?

It doesn't.

Cheers.

Oh yes, the laws changed in 1971.

No, it doesn't apply to
coins, which are legal tender.

There's no income,
remember, so it's up to you.

I'll call you back, Alex,
I've someone with me.

Sorry about that.

I didn't quite get the drift
of what you were telling me.

11 robberies and all 11
were customers of yours.

We call them clients
rather than customers.

By the time this breaks,
you'll be lucky to have either.

[electronic beeping]

-Judy.
-Yes, Mr. Earle?

Judy, bring in the Kruger
Rand register, will you?

Yes, Mr. Earle.

This could be a serious matter, Inspector,

we're like bankers, you know,

we pride ourselves on our discretion

and ability to read the wind.

Thank you, Judy, here
are the names, Inspector.

[Jack] Cowley, Arthur
George, Gerrards Cross.

Yes.

Another?

Grosse, double S-E,

Ian Philip, Great Missenden.

Another?

Ferguson, Isobel Jane, Petersham, Surrey.

Tell the Managing Director I'd
like to see him right away.

-Right away.
-And tell Mr. Warren

from Security to meet me there.

And don't mention a word
of this to anyone else,

you understand?

The Kruger Rands are then
sent either to the home.

-Through the post?
-Hm-mm, registered

and insured to the
client's home or his bank,

safety deposit box or whatever.

I see and they keep a list?

A register with all the addresses,

it's a who's who of
plums ready for picking.

And Kruger Rands aren't traceable?

Nope and they're easily negotiable,

Zurich, Canada, South Africa, the States,

anywhere in the world.

[Ray] Yep, in and out like
a rat in a coil of rope.

[Colin] Where was that?

Oh yeah, Nice.

[Ray] Yeah, nice.

Hello, Judy.

You just can't live without me, can you?

[Judy] Colin, it's time to blow.

-Who says so?
-The Big Bad Fuzz.

Not again.

I thought that orca was fixed.

Yeah, Haskins, yeah, he cost us a fortune.

Well, now there's another one,

they're going through everyone

who has access to the register.

-What's his name?
-Regan.

Have we got time?

-When are you leaving?
-Would you believe now?

-[car engine starting]
-See you on the beach, Colin.

-Right, which beach?
-Rio.

-When?
-Next Carnival.

[Colin] Ole, there she blows.

You've got to hand it to that girl.

Yeah, she's got style.

Oh, for a Sheila.

[birds twittering]

[background chattering]

Oh, look!!--

Sorry.

Last August, Warburton's sold

nearly a million pounds' worth
of Kruger Rands each week.

[George] So?

So how can you keep a watch
on everyone who bought them?

Even if you limit it to Greater London.

Yeah, tricky.

Phrase maker.

What I don't understand
is why didn't Haskins--

Don't speak ill of the dead, George.

No, but why didn't he spot it sooner?

-Spot what?
-Well, that Kruger Rands

were the link, the common denominator?

Well, give him a chance,

half the victims didn't
specify what they'd lost

and a few of the others forgot.

Forgot?

Yeah, death duties,
gifts tax, cash traders,

usual lead swingers.

Relaxes the throat.

Oh, it does, yeah.

Here we are trying to slam stable doors

and the horses have already
done the first furlong.

[phone ringing]

Regan.

Well, when was this?

[typewriter keys tapping]

George.

[Funky upbeat music]

[heavy breathing]

-When did you last see her?
-Well, lunchtime,

she had a delivery to take
to a commodities broker.

How long's she been with you?

About six months or so,

she came to us with the highest references

from a South African finance company.

Where does she live?

Oh, they'll have that in Personnel.

Do you think there's still a chance?

My guess is she's probably
still at the pictures.

Hm, pictures?

30,000 feet up above the Atlantic

in the first class section.

Here, governor.

Oh, good lad, George, a
rubber band's always handy.

It's got a number on it, look.

-183.
-Nothing to do with that.

They use them at swimming pools,

each number tallies with a clothes locker.

-Swimming, yes.
-What's that mean?

Well, she swam in the
Commonwealth Games in New Zealand

or was it Australia?

-No, it was New Zealand.
-Match with a pool, George,

-I can't be sure.
-quick as you can.

Look, we use the Trans
World Oil Sports Center,

-if that's any use to you.
-Right.

See you, guv.

[piano music]

McGruder, McGruder.

-Why aren't you changed?
-Oh, we are,

it's our new strip, do you like it?

-What is this?
-We've quit.

-What?
-As of now.

-What are you talking about?
-Withdrawal of labor.

Get changed, I'll overlook
it just this once.

-Say goodbye, Ray.
-Oh, yeah,

we'd like to say what a
great pleasure it's been

working for you, Mr. Simpkins.

-But it hasn't.
-So we won't.

There she blows.

Goodbye.

Argh!

[shouting incoherently]

What's he say?

He can't swim.

I thought that's what he said?

-Hello, Roslynne.
-Hello.

How's it going, I want
you to do him a favor.

[Ray] Where to then?

[Colin] Rio, purely coincidental.

[Ray] Oh, beaut, have you got the tickets?

[Colin] Have you got your glasses?

[spluttering]

[upbeat electronic rock music]
[Look at all the Fords!]
[The Consul GT!]

[tires screeching]

[siren wailing]

[tires screeching]

[tires screeching]

[Jaguar!]

You, go round the back!

Who's in charge?

I am.

Police looking for a
couple of Australians.

-Australians?
-Yeah, jokers, very flash.

-They used to work here.
-Used to?

-They left.
-When?

Just after lunch.

I'll get a couple of
cars out to the airport,

I'll get a description,
what are they like?

-Rough.
-What do you mean, rough?

Apparently the key witness,
Wally Vince has vanished.

Don't they always?

A10 think he might have left the country.

So the allegations are
incapable of substantiation,

you're reinstated immediately

without loss of privilege,
pay or seniority.

Here's your warrant card.

In other words, it's
service as usual, Frank.

Thank you, sir.

We've lost 'em, guv.

They're still checking
the channel ports though.

Here hold on, you'll
do yourself a mischief.

[police radio broadcasting quietly]

Well, some you lose, we've lost before.

Yeah, but we needn't have done,

a couple of Aussie Owens mugging us.

Well, no one can blame us.

I blame us.

"Stand and deliver."

What's this?

Your share of the bung.

What bung?

Haskins, it was in my
coat pocket, remember?

We can't do that, guv.

No, nice thought though, innit?

[George] That's a nice thought too.

Yeah, they're probably on board,

a cold beer in one hand,
warm stewardess in the other.

[quirky Electronic music]

George.
