I wagged my wig at him.
Nitpick: “Waggled.”
Oh, aye.
Inspector: Yes. And, er, he never showed any inclination towards being a Scotsman before this happened?
Wife: No, no, not at all. He was not that sort of person…
Inspector: He didn’t wear a kilt or play the bagpipes?
Wife: No, no.
Inspector: He never got drunk at night or bought home black puddings?
Wife: No, no. Not at all.
Inspector: He didn’t have an inadequate brain capacity?
Wife: No, no, not at all.
Jolly good. Well, back to the office with you then.
Battery lights, dynamo lights, rear lights, brains – here we are…
Right… this is the plan, then. At 10:45, you, Reg, collect me and Ken in the van, and take us round to the British Jewelry Centre in the High Street. We will arrive outside the British Jewelry Centre at 10:50am. I shall then get out of the car, you, Reg, take it and park it back here in Denver Street, right? At 10:51, I shall enter the British Jewelry Centre, where you, Vic, disguised as a customer, will meet me and hand me £5.18.3d. At 10:52, I shall approach the counter and purchase a watch costing £5.18.3d. I shall then give the watch to you, Vic. You’ll go straight to Norman’s Garage in East Street. You lads continue back up here at 10:56 and we rendezvous in the back room at the Cow and Sickle, at 11:15. All right, any questions?
He’s not the Messiah, he’s a very naughty boy!
I waggled my wig at him.
Lemon curry?
Out of the door. Line on the left. One cross each.
Three, sir.
Well, it’s getting late. I must go and have a wash.
African or European?
Today we have, for appetizers moules marinières, pâté de foie gras, beluga caviar, eggs Benedictine, tart de poireaux, that’s leek tart, frogs’ legs amandine, or oeufs de caille Richard Shepherd, c’est à dire, little quails’ eggs on a bed of puréed mushroom. It’s very delicate, very subtle.
Better.
Do you get wafers with it?
Yessir. It’s ah… it’s a bit runny.
The text, Vic! Don’t say the text!
We apologise again for the fault in the subtitles. Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked, have been sacked.
Ooo, I like it runny!
