00:00and against in for far they thought it was like synthetic cowpat 94 percent against
00:09silently plastic dog turds whose idea was this mark that is yours yours yours yours at the test
00:20launch graham yeah i suppose we might consider altering the formula could even put a bit of
00:28chocolate in oh god knows what they're going to say about the potency batch i'm sorry i'm late mr
00:42chumlee there was just so much of it it kept spewing out and and mr chumlee mr farris
00:49they loved them in potency what what listen to this pleasantly nutty subtle and delicious
00:58addictive compulsive tasted full of goodness a hundred percent in favor isn't that wonderful
01:08it's not it's awful isn't it great scott good lord but that's brilliant brilliant
01:17but that was the battery six percent meeting them simple adjustment of the formula and bingo
01:23for being but we can't go on deliberately putting meat in can we gentlemen leave it to special projects
01:36there you are mrs wedderburn one nice soft tongue half a pound of steak pound of black pudding and then
01:44next have you got my lungs kidneys mr owsley all waiting for you mrs coote i'll just serve this young
01:50gentleman could i have 140 pounds of prime scotch fillet please mr owsley 102 pounds of new seasons
01:57welsh lamb and um oh yes three young porkers as they come with uh heads ears trotters and uh be quick
02:05about it i'm on a double yellow line
02:24oh
02:29this will be new to you littleton in-house testing on closed circuit tv yeah our own employees but they
02:46can't see this because we're using concealed cameras here oh gosh come on ah there we are
03:03this is it littleton your new formula on test you'll be surprised to hear this but the trained
03:09eye can actually tell from subtle clues i mean uh facial expression rate of mastication
03:15involuntary vocalization and so on whether or not we have a viable product uh do you mean if they
03:22smile a bit and say yum yum that means they like it broadly speaking yeah oh gosh isn't science wonderful
03:31oh shut up
03:40oh
03:42oh
03:52I haven't got a trained eye or anything and well shoot me down if I'm wrong on
04:10this one but by and large I'd say they weren't too keen. Shut up.
04:16I don't understand this, Graham. It's illogical, yeah? What's illogical about it? They hate the stuff because it's bloody horrible. Too simple, Graham. Pork nougat, liver truffles, oxblood creams. Please, please. Why can't we go back to putting chocolate in them? That's what bankrupted your company in the first place, Graham, yeah?
04:42Are you all right? Like wild beasts. It was quite fun actually. Are you sure you use the same proportions as in the potency batch? Yes, Mr. Ferris. Six percent.
05:00I'm baffled. Yeah, I'm ruined. Yeah. Mr. Chumley, I think I understand. People don't want to eat chocolates with cows and pigs in them. People want to eat chocolates with people in them.
05:20Brilliant. Yeah.
05:30All right. Now, our problem is to find a regular supply of the, uh, special ingredient which proves so popular in potency, yeah?
05:46Ferris, you're off your head. We can't expect our employees to...
05:52We can't expect our employees to dive off the gantry simply to boost the flavour.
06:01Well, perhaps not.
06:04Besides, we do need a minimum number to maintain the machinery, yeah?
06:08But, think of all those millions and millions of unemployed school leavers, yeah?
06:14A tragic, tragic situation.
06:18But we could give them a chance to do their bit for society, yeah?
06:24They could see it as a form of national service.
06:27Think I would shorten the dole cues, eh?
06:30We'd probably win the Queen's Award for Industry, yeah?
06:35What's wrong?
06:37Sorry. Have I overlooked something?
06:39It makes financial sense, doesn't it?
06:41It's murder, Ferris. An accident's one thing.
06:44But deliberately grinding up the unemployed is another.
06:48Oh, well.
06:49You're gonna split hairs.
06:50Besides, we could be found out.
06:54Well, that is your point, yeah?
06:56It might be a silly idea, but...
07:11Why not use people who are dead already?
07:15I mean, they wouldn't mind, would they?
07:18Oh, really?
07:22Foreign bodies wouldn't buy chocolates.
07:25Oh, dear.
07:26Oh, they wouldn't be foreigners, Mr. Chamberlain.
07:29They'd be nice English people.
07:32Nice English people.
07:34Ethel.
07:35That is a brilliant idea.
07:37Sounds like a job for special projects.
07:40Littleton?
07:41Yes.
07:48Look, sir.
07:49Really, I can't.
07:50I'm much too squeamish.
07:51I mean, I had bad dreams when my hamster passed away.
07:57We're all capable of much more than you think, Ian.
07:59Think of the future, yeah?
08:01Take me as your model.
08:10Dr. Forrester.
08:12My name's Paisley, yeah?
08:13This is my assistant, Mr. Tweed.
08:17We're very glad to know you, Dr. Forrester.
08:19Yes, the Balmoral Institute of Tissue Analysis.
08:24I can't say a third of you.
08:26We've newly expanded into this part of the country, yeah?
08:30We're a very forward-looking company.
08:32Very successful.
08:33We'd like you to share in that success.
08:35Would you?
08:36Would you?
08:38What's the matter with your wee man, then?
08:41Mental defective, is it?
08:44Had a lobotomy, have you, laddie?
08:48No, Dr. Forreston.
08:51Yeah, it's not really my, uh, my line, psychiatry.
08:55If you'd, uh, follow me, gentlemen.
08:58Surely.
09:00Look, Dad.
09:01How's that?
09:02Yeah.
09:03As we at Balmoral say, you at Redburn are...
09:06...seriously undercapitalizing on your assets, yeah?
09:08Howie.
09:09Howie.
09:11Well done, Mr. Clark.
09:14There, you see, he's given us a lovely, clear view of the pancreas.
09:19Oh, yeah.
09:23I understand that when you've completed your work, you consign the, uh, raw material to the clients, yeah?
09:29Naturally, naturally.
09:30Oh, Miss Hennessy.
09:32That's not the Christmas turkey.
09:37We at Balmoral would be interested in taking them off your hands.
09:41These?
09:42Whatever for.
09:43Seventy pence a pound on the bow.
09:44The quantity would be substantial.
09:47You could enhance your financial profile, your personal financial profile considerably.
09:53We at Balmoral are very discreet, aren't we, Mr. Tweed?
09:57That is a most improper suggestion, Mr. Paisley.
10:00I couldn't possibly countenance it.
10:03For a penny less than, uh, one twenty a pound.
10:07Come on, it's fine flesh, man.
10:11Feel the density, Mr. Tweed.
10:13You're not trying better hung corpses than that south of the border.
10:17Well, for that quality, my directors might go to, uh, eighty?
10:20One ten?
10:21Ninety?
10:22Bones included?
10:23Of course.
10:24You're on.
10:25Now, quantity?
10:27Seven hundred and twenty pounds a week?
10:29Well, that trade, we might be able to make some reduction.
10:32You can take delivery any time you like.
10:34Tomorrow, after six o'clock, reporters will have them bagged and ready for the freezer.
10:38And I'll throw in a few spare legs and a nice lucky bag of lights and giblets as an introductory offer.
10:43How about that, Mr. Paisley?
10:44Excellent, Dr. Forrester.
10:46My assistant, Mr. Tweedle, will be the one actually handling them.
11:02Get out.
11:04What are you gonna do to me?
11:06Relax, Ian.
11:08Trust me.
11:18Do you understand what I'm showing you, Ian?
11:21Uh, Beeston Council Estate.
11:24I'm showing you the world.
11:27The world, Ian.
11:29And it could be yours if you're prepared to seize the moment.
11:33I see myself in you, Ian.
11:36You could be like me.
11:38Prince of the pulsating business city.
11:41All you have to do is throw a few stiffs into the chocolate bats.
11:46I'm sorry, Mr. Farris.
11:48I don't like to let you down.
11:50I just can't stomach it.
11:53Well, that is a shame.
11:56We're gonna have to let you go, Ian.
11:59No job.
12:00No company car.
12:02No references.
12:04Fifty years on the dole.
12:05Have you got a girlfriend, Ian?
12:07Do you think she'll look at a hopeless bum with no prospects?
12:09I doubt it.
12:11Well, think it over.
12:13Sleep on it.
12:15Where do you want to be?
12:17On top of the world?
12:19Or drowning in shit with the rest of them?
12:20Have you ever noticed how nobody's got both eyes exactly the same size?
12:29Felicity.
12:31When I was at school, I used to go out with this boy who had a glass eye.
12:35He used to take it out sometimes, and it'd like, watch us.
12:39It was dead strange.
12:41Felicity.
12:43I love you.
12:45Oh, Ian.
12:46Me too.
12:50Hey, this bed's dead hard, isn't it?
12:53I would have thought a senior executive could have done himself a bit better than this.
12:58I may not be head of special projects much longer.
13:01They're not going to promote you again.
13:04No, no, no, they're not going to promote me.
13:07Felicity, would you still love me if I got the sack?
13:11Well, you're not going to, are you?
13:14You've got a smashing job. You're a great success.
13:17But if I lost my job, would you still love me if I was a tramp?
13:21Oh, yeah, I would.
13:23I'd come and be a tramp with you. I would, honest.
13:27I'd love to sleep in barns and roll about in the air with you.
13:30We'd both be dead smelly.
13:32And we'd both have these great long beards, like, and, and hats with holes in them.
13:39Oh.
13:40Well, Mr. G.
13:41Oh.
13:50Hey, Ian.
13:52Do you reckon this bed would be any softer if we, like, lay down a little bit?
14:02Oh.
14:03Damn!
14:04Damn!
14:05Damn!
14:06Damn!
14:07Damn!
14:08Damn!
14:09Damn!
14:10Damn!
14:11Damn!
14:12Damn!
14:13Damn!
14:14Damn!
14:15Damn!
14:17Listen to that, Spencer.
14:19Isn't it romantic?
14:21I can't do it.
14:23I can't do it.
14:25I can't do it.
14:27Never mind, my puppet.
14:29You lie back, Mrs. Garza.
14:32Do it.
14:35It's all wrong.
14:36I shouldn't be here at all.
14:39I'm a good boy, really.
14:43I'm in turmoil, Mrs. Garza.
14:46I'm discovering terrible things about the world.
14:49Did you know that people just want to eat each other, Mrs. Garza?
14:53Of course they do, silly.
14:59There is to me, Graham, yeah?
15:02Whichever way it goes.
15:04I've been up shit creek before, and my paddle is stainless steel, yeah?
15:10Yo!
15:14Ah, Ian.
15:15By on the stairs, yeah?
15:16I trust you had a restful night?
15:18I'm safe.
15:22I've come to...
15:24I want to...
15:27I want to resign, Mr. Ferris.
15:30I don't want to be head of special projects anymore.
15:37So?
15:39Well, Carol Donnage.
15:48You owe us Β£11,760.
15:55We'll overlook the odd pennies.
15:57A cash or banker's draft would be acceptable.
16:00What?
16:01No, but I don't.
16:03How can I owe that much?
16:05Well, let me see.
16:07Ah, yes.
16:09Misuse of company credit card, yeah?
16:11Belgian suite.
16:12Olympic.
16:16Pleasure bed.
16:18King size marbleised Jacuzzi.
16:21Shall I go on?
16:24Oh, God.
16:26I'll pay you by instalments.
16:28Ah, you'll get every penny, I promise you.
16:29I'm an honest man.
16:30No, you're not, Ian.
16:31You're a fraudulent little shit, and you're going to jail.
16:34Murder, conspiracy, extortion, falsifying expense accounts.
16:39You'll be lucky to get out in 25 years, son.
16:43However,
16:45Mr. Chumley and I don't hold that against you.
16:49You're impetuous, but you have excellent qualities.
16:51Has he not, Graham?
16:52Oh.
16:54And if you are prepared to reconsider,
16:57and accept a new post,
16:59as Executive Director for Requisitions,
17:02we might be prepared to overlook these, uh,
17:05trifling peccadillos, yeah?
17:07Yeah?
17:10I really think this is an offer you can't refuse, Ian.
17:26I've come for the delivery.
17:28For Balmoral.
17:30Balmoral?
17:32Oh, then you must be...
17:34Mr. Tweed?
17:35Yes, yes, I'm not sure, yes.
17:36It's round the back.
18:01Mumbling.
18:07You're ready.
18:08You're in.
18:09You're ready.
18:10You're ready.
18:11You're ready.
18:13You're ready.
18:15You're ready.
18:17You're ready.
18:18You're ready.
18:20Good.
18:22This time I'm going for my library.
18:24I'm a huge issue.
18:25Go on.
18:26It's a huge issue.
18:27You're ready.
18:28You're still so pale, my little warrior.
18:57Here, let's see what this does for you.
19:24The latest on the air disaster, the death toll's reached 575. Could be a record. But for now, we're going over to Big Teddy, somewhere in the heart of England. And would you believe he's breaking his diet again?
19:36Thank you, Ducky. We're here to see how they launch a new brand of chocolate. I'm sorry I can't tell you the name, but the makers would like us all to be absolutely passionate about them.
19:48Well, let's see what you, the people, think. Let's talk to someone. Ah! What's your name, Ducky?
19:54Trevor.
19:55And what does Trevor think of passionels? Oops, sorry. Ah, a moment of truth. The nation holds its breath.
20:04Yeah. Yeah, one of the cavalry who said the art of conversation was dead. Well, they say accents speak louder than words. Now, let's talk to these ladies here. Now, ladies, what do you think of passionels? Put the roses back in your cheeks today.
20:21Hey. Tastier than steak and kidney pie. They're lovely. I love them. Roger loves them, too. Here on you. I'm going to get a box of them passionels from my husband, I am. Oh, and why is that, my darling?
20:33Letting it'll put the leg back in his pencil. Ah!
20:37Oh, charming. Well, it's back to you in the studio, Sue. Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute. I've done one of these myself yet.
20:43Mmm. A cheeky little chocolate. He has a winning way about it. It's official, Sue. Big Teddy's back off his diet, Ducky.
20:57Save one for me, Big Teddy. And now, to our next studio guest, who's brought a rather unusual friend along.
21:05That's it. Yeah? We're home and dry. The only question is, Brian, how do we keep up with demand?
21:13We at Balmoral say stop burying your assets and start investing for the future.
21:26I don't understand him, son. Go and make a cup of tea, Dad. I'll look after this.
21:33Why lay the departed to rest when you could put them to work?
21:38Look. I'll give it to you straight. If he's not in here, when you put it under, who goes to know?
21:51Cheers.
21:52Ah, the tango. Ah, it'll bring me back to Valletta.
22:05The sailors, their belly-bottom trousers, their tight little bumps.
22:10Come back.
22:12Please, Mrs. Cosa.
22:24And now, I have my own little dance studio.
22:27Whenever I say, Mr. Littleton from Chumley.
22:31The bank, go up straight away!
22:45Mercy help me, Mrs. Cosa, please.
22:47Please, I'm so tired.
22:50Yay!
22:51Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
22:54Hey, hey, hey, What?
22:55Whoa!
22:57Whoa.
22:58Oh, my.
23:01Hey!
23:04Hey!
23:09This like a bee gameinee,
23:14makan a dud.
23:17Hey, he's talking.
23:18Well, now, bodies we do have, as you can see.
23:26So, um, what's the problem?
23:29Oh, relatives.
23:31They all got relatives, see?
23:32And these relatives, they come and ask for them.
23:34And if I say, well, sorry, Mrs., I just sold him,
23:37well, it's a bit awkward, see what I mean?
23:38I only want one, Dr. Rees.
23:40It's an emergency.
23:41Only one?
23:43Well, let's see.
23:44Well, Dumas, here's a boil for you, ma.
23:49Tramps, see, no bother about him.
23:51A bit smelly, mind, but, um, he's all there, no missing parts.
23:56Um, how much does he weigh?
23:59Oh, I don't know, about, uh, ten, ten hours.
24:03I'll take him.
24:04So I get one of the nurses to wrap him up for you?
24:06No, no, no, no, I'll, uh, I'll take him as he is.
24:09I'm a bit of a hurry, you see.
24:14I'm a bit of a hurry.
24:44Oh, I feel a bit rough.
25:02This wouldn't be darken, would it, sir?
25:05The thing is, I've got a good pair of boots waiting for me in darken.
25:09Um, yes, well, I think I'd better be getting along there, then.
25:16No, no!
25:16No, no!
25:35Blimey!
25:37Ian!
25:38Ian, Ian, Ian, come here!
25:39I did what you said I shouldn't do.
25:41I analysed a special batch.
25:43Can't wait. Special projects.
25:44No, but this is special, Ian.
25:45This will amaze you.
25:47I think there's human tissue in there.
25:50Ian!
25:51Oh, yeah.
25:51Yeah, well, you could say I masterminded the whole operation, yeah.
25:54Oh, thank you, Ethel.
25:55But we should not underestimate the importance of our new...
25:58young chief executive, yeah?
26:01Yeah, absolutely tireless.
26:02Wouldn't you agree, Mr. Chumley?
26:04Graham?
26:04Oh, oh.
26:06You've never met anyone like him.
26:08Yeah.
26:09Well, Ferris, I can't wait to meet this young man.
26:11Oh, hope you don't have to wait too long.
26:13Oh, here he is now.
26:18Sorry, I'm late.
26:19I've been dealing with a dead Irishman.
26:21Well, he wasn't dead when I met him.
26:23But he's short as hell is now.
26:24Bubble.
26:29What a card, huh?
26:31Absolute original.
26:32Ian, these gentlemen can't wait to meet you, yeah?
26:34Really?
26:35Hello?
26:35Hello?
26:35Hello?
26:36Well, that's got that over.
26:37What's next on the agenda?
26:38Donnelly, sir.
26:42Anglo Foods and Horlidge.
26:44Our parent organization, Ian, yeah?
26:46Nice and firm.
26:46You must be about, what, 18 stone, I say?
26:4818, too.
26:49Oh.
26:50I see, Sue.
26:52Ronald Worcester, Anglo Foods and Horlidge.
26:55Nice and plump.
26:56Yes, I think I'll eat you now.
26:58I haven't had a bite since breakfast.
26:59Oh, really.
27:00Really.
27:01Nice and firm.
27:05Roger Rutland.
27:07Roger Rutland.
27:07Oh, did they?
27:07Yeah.
27:07Your body, Rutland.
27:09I wouldn't have that as a gift.
27:15I like this man.
27:16Young man.
27:17I like your wits.
27:19I like your work race.
27:20You know, you've made us a profit faster than I thought possible.
27:24Oh, and that's what really counts, isn't it?
27:26Well, that's what we say, Anglo.
27:28We say that, don't we?
27:30Yeah.
27:30Yeah.
27:32Lord Mayor, delighted you can make it, young.
27:35Well, I wanted to meet the young man who saved our town.
27:38You do?
27:39Oh.
27:39Oh.
27:40Littleton, Ian.
27:41Mayor, Lord.
27:42Ah, Mr. Littleton.
27:44My warmest congratulations.
27:46My God.
27:47What a municipal little mouthful you are.
27:50How would you like to be in chocolates?
27:51Hmm?
27:55Why don't we all go and eat, yeah?
27:57Yeah.
27:57Yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:58Why don't we?
27:59And I think I'll start with Mr. Worcester here.
28:02Oh, no.
28:03No, no, no, maybe not.
28:05No, maybe I'll just have a couple of wings.
28:07A couple of thighs, maybe.
28:08A tossed sailor.
28:10Who said that?
28:11Did I say sailor?
28:12Hmm?
28:13Reminds me of Malta.
28:14Huh?
28:14Gentlemen, never, never go to Malta.
28:17For Letta Harbor is an extremely dangerous place.
28:27Excuse me, gentlemen.
28:28I've got to go and service a most important client.
28:31Good day to you all.
28:31A most remarkable young man.
28:36Most remarkable, yeah.
28:38Yeah, that's why at our, um, annual dinner, we're making him Chocolate Man of the Year, yeah?
28:43More thrust from the heaps, Mr. Littleton.
28:46The tango is the dance of love.
28:50It all gone too far.
28:52That tramp.
28:53I can't bear it.
28:55I'm going to spill the beans.
28:56I'm going to confess everything.
28:57Nothing to confess, dear.
29:01Nothing to confess.
29:02Your husband, Dermot, went into the chocolate.
29:06People ate him at vicarage tea parties.
29:08Well, he always used to like to spread himself around.
29:12Not to worry, I got you now.
29:14It's still going on.
29:15They can't get enough of the flavor, and now people are eating people all over the country.
29:19Oh, I didn't know, but I'm not surprised.
29:23I think it's quite normal.
29:26Normal?
29:26Normal?
29:36Stay here.
29:37I'll send them away.
29:40And you take off your trousers, Mrs. Garza, will make you feel better.
29:43Yes.
29:58Can I have a dancing lesson?
29:59Not open yet.
30:00Goodbye.
30:01I've come to see Mr. Littleton.
30:03Sorry, you've got no trousers on.
30:05Goodbye.
30:06I'm his fiancΓ©e.
30:11Hello, Spaghead.
30:13I can explain.
30:18I've been taking dancing lessons as a surprise for you.
30:20With no trousers on.
30:22Maltese tango.
30:23Pull the other one.
30:25Okay, I come clean with you.
30:27Mr. Littleton, I'm a lovely boy.
30:31He's crazy about you.
30:33He's mad about your body.
30:36But he don't know how to do it.
30:38Mrs. Garza, he say,
30:39I want the first time with my fiancΓ©e to be beautiful.
30:46Not the dog's breakfast.
30:48So I give him lessons.
30:50Oh, is this true?
30:53Oh, well, why didn't you say so?
30:56I think that's a lovely idea, Mrs. Garza.
30:59Is he any good?
31:00Oh, you won't be disappointed.
31:03Eve Warner Silver made her last week.
31:06This week he's practicing for gold.
31:09Oh, well, Silver will do fine for me.
31:11I'm only from Woodward's Field.
31:13Come on, Spaghead.
31:14I want you.
31:15Thank you very much, Mrs. Garza, for everything.
31:18Goodbye, Mr. Littleton.
31:38Somehow I don't think I'll be seeing you anymore.
31:42So what's a bore we don't do?
31:45All alone in the world.
31:51You really don't mind?
31:53Of course not.
31:54We've all got to learn off someone.
31:56I thought you must be up to something really bad like.
31:59Felicity, I've been up to something really bad.
32:04Come on, then.
32:05Who else have you been getting lessons off?
32:07No, no, no.
32:08No, no, it's nothing like that.
32:10It's just...
32:12Oh, my God.
32:12Come on, I love you.
32:17I've been putting bits of people in the chocolate.
32:21I thought it was people.
32:23Hey, the experiment was right.
32:27But don't you think it's appalling?
32:29How do you persuade them?
32:31What?
32:32Well, to let you cut bits off them.
32:35Oh, my God, you...
32:37I've only asked.
32:39We don't use bits of live people.
32:41We get them out of mortuaries and places...
32:43Go on.
32:48Leave me.
32:49Don't be daft.
32:51Doesn't hurt them if they're dead.
32:54They'd probably be glad to know they were being useful, like.
32:58Oh, come on, Ian.
33:00People carry cards around saying,
33:02I would like to help someone after me death.
33:05I'd do it myself.
33:06Come on, cheer up.
33:10You're going to be chocolate man of the year.
33:13You don't think it's horrible?
33:16I think maybe women are more practical than men.
33:20Oh.
33:22I'm experiencing a strange and...
33:26not unpleasant sensation, yeah?
33:29I wonder if it could be marketed.
33:31Well, I think you're ready now.
33:35Oh.
33:36How extraordinary.
33:38I...
33:38I wonder if anyone's thought of this before.
33:41I...
33:42Oh.
33:45Now, listen to me.
33:48You know, my lovely little Mr. Farish.
33:51Oh, yes?
33:52Now, we're such good friends.
33:54We're good friends, aren't we?
33:55Oh, yes.
33:56Yes, yes, yes.
33:57I'm worried about Mr. Littleton.
34:01Oh, I think maybe he's going off his rocker.
34:05He tell me everything.
34:07He tell his girlfriend everything.
34:11Ah.
34:12You pay attention here, Mr. Farish.
34:14Yes, yes.
34:15Go on.
34:16Oh, pretty soon he tell everybody everything.
34:20Oh, I think he should be like you and me.
34:25Oh, I'm more distraught.
34:29Oh, I think I've just maximized my potential, yeah?
34:46Oh, so soon.
34:49Oh, well, my little Farish.
34:54I hope you're grateful to Mrs. Garza.
34:58Oh, yes, yes.
34:59Very grateful, thank you.
35:01Then you find a way to solve this problem.
35:05Then everyone be happy.
35:08Yes, I, um, I think I can see a way, yeah.
35:15Couldn't you just eat him?
35:16Oh, yes, I could.
35:19Look, Spencer.
35:21Chocolate man of the year, that is.
35:23Doesn't he look smart?
35:27And he's our lodger.
35:29Not for much longer, Mrs. Gordon.
35:30I'm going to blow the whole thing sky high.
35:32Don't say you're leaving us, Ian.
35:34Old Farish wants to see me privately before dinner.
35:37Well, what for?
35:38I expect he'll offer me another promotion.
35:41Stuff it, spaghead, I shall say.
35:43There is a world elsewhere,
35:45and me and my girl are off to conquer it.
35:47Oh, Ian, you want to be careful.
35:50I think that Farish is dead ruthless.
35:53You should watch him chew celery sometime.
35:56Farish doesn't frighten me.
35:57No one frightens Ian Littleton anymore.
36:02I have become a man.
36:07I've got that, Spencer.
36:09Isn't it exciting?
36:21Ah, good.
36:22Up on the left bit.
36:23The other left.
36:24Right, right, right.
36:25Good.
36:27Bonsoir, monsieur.
36:37Graham.
36:39Ah, this is Mrs. Garza, yeah?
36:41I've just been...
36:42Look!
36:44Showing her around the factory.
36:47Mrs. Garza, this is Mr. Chumley,
36:49chairman of the company.
36:50No.
36:51Really?
36:52Oh, you're chairman of all this great big factory.
36:59Oh, I'm so pleased to meet you, you know.
37:02I'm on the right.
37:02You're on the right.
37:03I'm a real good friend of Mr. Littleton.
37:07And Mr. Farish, that tell me everything.
37:11Oh, dear.
37:12Oh, don't be frightened.
37:17I'm not a difficult lady.
37:18In fact, I'm a very easy lady.
37:23Good evening, Paris.
37:24Good evening.
37:25Crime?
37:25Oh, no, no, no.
37:28Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
37:30Are you sure you wouldn't like me to come along and hold your hand like?
37:37No.
37:38No, you go on ahead.
37:40You can tell them I won't be long.
37:43This is man's business, Felicity.
37:50Of course, I was his personal secretary for quite a while.
38:00Oh, Ben.
38:01The Lord Mayor, ladies and gentlemen, dinner is served.
38:12Graham, I'll just go and see if I can find Littleton, yeah?
38:16Do you know what a workaholic he is?
38:17He's probably still at it somewhere, on the floor.
38:20Don't you worry about a thing, Mr. Chomley.
38:23Mr. Farish, take care of Mr. Littleton, and I'll take care of you.
38:27Oh, no.
38:31Littleton.
38:34Fancy a drink?
38:37Yeah.
38:38Don't mind if I do?
38:49This?
38:50Where's the guest of honor?
38:52Oh, I know where he is.
38:54He's having a private interview with Mr. Farish.
38:56Cheers.
38:57You've done a wonderful job, Ian.
38:59Thanks.
38:59But I won't be doing that job anymore.
39:03Right.
39:05Time to move on in the world, eh?
39:10Right to the very top.
39:13Yeah?
39:14Yeah.
39:15I've got a new position for you, Ian.
39:27What?
39:29Posthumous president.
39:31Fancy it?
39:31Not much.
39:33You fancy it yourself?
39:34Can you take that, you swine?
39:47What a deal.
39:47Come on.
39:50Get your ass.
40:00Go!
40:01Go!
40:02Come on.
40:04Come on!
40:09Go on!
40:10Come on!
40:10Come on!
40:12Go on!
40:13Go on!
40:14Oh, God.
40:44I'm sorry. I'm terribly sorry.
40:52I'm sorry.
41:01Are you all right?
41:07You see that?
41:17What a man!
41:19How about that?
41:21Take that, Baron!
41:23Ian!
41:25Ian!
41:27Ian!
41:29Ian!
41:33Ian!
41:35Ian!
41:37Ian!
41:39Ian!
41:41Ian!
41:43Ian!
41:45We'd better start with him or without him.
41:49All right. All right.
41:51I mean, things are getting out of control.
41:55Ladies and gentlemen, all right, all right!
41:59Oh!
42:01I, too...
42:03I, too, would have liked to see Mr. Littleton here tonight.
42:09Yeah! We want it all!
42:11I, too, would have liked to see Mr. Littleton.
42:21Oh!
42:29Stop!
42:31Is it you in there, Mr. Littleton?
42:33It is!
42:34It is!
42:35Oh, what a lovely flavour!
42:37My hero!
42:43It wasn't me.
42:45It was Faris.
42:46It was all Faris.
42:47I didn't want to eat.
42:49You, you, you can have it all.
42:50You can become...
42:51Chairman!
42:52...
42:54Only, please, sir...
42:58Don't tell on me.
43:02Littleton!
43:03My Lord Mayor, ladies and gentlemen,
43:05pray silence for Miss Ian Littleton's Chocolate Man of the Year.
43:14Please!
43:15Please!
43:22So, what is Big Teddy doing standing outside Buckingham Palace celebrating one of the great men of our time?
43:29Even as I speak, at this moment, Her Majesty the Queen, God bless her,
43:33is tapping the royal sword on the shoulder of the youngest knight ever to be dubbed in this green and pleasant land.
43:40Her eyes, is that Ian?
43:56Not bad for a spaggot, eh?
44:00Ian, are you feeling all right?
44:05Lovely and firm.
44:06Plenty of flavour there.
44:08Yes, steady on. Plenty of time for that.
44:13Yes.
44:15A bridal assortment.
44:18Yes.
44:38Yes.
44:39Please thank you on behalf of the Royal House Cells.
44:48There we go.
44:49There's no way to vote.
44:50Me not immerse a good convenience for this summer.
44:51chisδΎΏ there.
44:52Ah, yes, thank you.
44:54Oh, dear.
44:55No.
44:56Please, please.
44:57Let's Raquel.
44:58No.
44:59Sometimes a load.
45:00Hey.
45:00Buenos, inventory.
45:01Thank you for that needless, brother.
45:02We've enjoyed THE protagonists.
45:03Backward you too.
47:53It's about how people really will do anything for money and the extent to which they'll go
48:00to maintain profit margins.
48:02It's a fable of our times.
48:05It's an allegory of our times told in an extremely comic, extremely funny way.
48:12And it's a very black story.
48:14It's a very black story.
48:15It's a real black comedy.
48:16Two, seven, one, take three.
48:18Action.
48:19You got this?
48:20Where's the guest of honour?
48:21Oh, I know where he is.
48:22He's having a private interview with Mr. Farris.
48:26Well, you better go and fetch him then.
48:27The basic premise of the thing is that three men fall into the chocolate vat and get mushed
48:39up and processed and made into chocolates.
48:41So that is the, if there's any humour in it, it's there.
48:47When I first read the script, I thought, oh my God, this is sick.
48:51You know?
48:52And then I read it again.
48:53And once we started performing, you're just rolling about.
48:57Oh, Littleton isn't here yet.
48:59Never mind.
49:00Get him on.
49:11Ladies and gentlemen, pray silence for her worship.
49:22Well, Mrs. Garza's attracted by one thing only.
49:25She's a widow.
49:28She's got no pension, no security.
49:30She's just got herself to use to get on.
49:34So she's attracted by the man who's nearer the top.
49:39So she starts at the bottom and works her way up until she gets to the top.
49:43The top is the chairman.
49:45Mrs. Garza presents herself as the main chancer and a very voluptuous woman,
49:50presents herself as a substitute mother figure, which immediately appeals to her.
49:56Because she thinks, well, if this guy owns all this factory and all this stuff,
50:01then she's going to get a lot going for it.
50:03If she does, so she does.
50:05And I accept a very familiar situation for me personally.
50:10Look, Chumley, what's going on here?
50:12Where's the man of the moment?
50:13We can't wait all night.
50:15He'll be here in a moment, I'm sure.
50:17What's to worry, Mr. Faris, taken care of Mr. Littleton?
50:22All I ever wanted was to make good chockeys.
50:29Life used to be so simple.
50:31Now it's just got out of control.
50:35Oh, poor Mr. Chumley.
50:39Oh, you need someone to take care of you.
50:43Would you like me to take care of you?
50:47Uh-uh, just like your own mama.
50:52Oh, Mrs. Garza, if only you would.
50:57I suppose it's a classical situation of birth, copulation and death.
51:04My Lord Mayor!
51:06Ladies and gentlemen!
51:08All right, all right!
51:10Oh, .
51:12Sorry.
51:13Sorry.
