00:24I don't know where to go with my sword, right, hey
00:29I was dirty last night, I was dirty last night
00:36I was dirty last night, I was dirty last night
00:39I was dirty last night in my head, car, we're in jail
00:44Sunshine will find my mind that needs a rain
00:51And I don't know where to go with my sword, right, hey
00:57And I don't know where to go with my sword, right, hey
01:06Can't you find nothing to do?
01:16Well, that's all very quiet. Not for luck leading music.
01:21Well, keep your eye on that little team at the bar.
01:24They look like trouble.
01:26Anything you say to me.
01:46Great gig, fellas. You are definitely on an invite back.
02:06Oh, great.
02:07Here you go.
02:12Spannik?
02:13Something the matter?
02:15It was told he was getting 70.
02:17Told? Who told you that?
02:19Oh, Sammy. You said 70, didn't you?
02:22Yeah.
02:23Well, that's what you said, Chris, when I fixed the gig.
02:2670?
02:28Oh, I said 70.
02:30Hey, John, I think they're superstars.
02:33Well, 20 quid, it's hardly worth a while.
02:35I mean, knock-off transport, but left with about 2 quid each.
02:38I don't know. I don't understand you kids.
02:41I mean, you spend most of your time on the social security or gigging in pubs.
02:44I'll give you an opportunity to build up a personal following.
02:48I mean, you do want an invite back, don't you?
02:51Yeah, naturally.
02:52Then take your 20.
02:54And show a bit of gratitude as well.
02:57John?
02:59John?
03:00Now, we don't make no aggravation, do we?
03:03It's been a genuine misunderstanding.
03:08Right, Barrett?
03:09Yeah, really.
03:11You're right.
03:12I think you went down quite well.
03:14Really nice.
03:15Thanks.
03:16So listen, drop back in a couple of days.
03:21We'll talk about return engagement.
03:23Okay.
03:24Yeah, thanks a lot, Chris.
03:26See ya, fellas.
03:27Start fearing out now, John.
03:28Okay, that's it for the night.
03:29We'll talk again with a thank you to you tomorrow night.
03:30A solid soul night.
03:31Until then, good night.
03:32And be careful.
03:33Hey, get a drink.
03:34Where's the drink gone?
03:35Oh, it doesn't matter, Ellen.
03:36Wasn't that.
03:37You're kidding.
03:38Full Bacardi and Coke?
03:39Excuse me.
03:40I had a full drink, then.
03:41Have they taken it away?
03:42Well, clothes.
03:43It's not an all-night bloody drinking club.
03:44Full drink?
03:45I haven't even touched it in the night.
03:46I haven't even touched it for you, sir, I haven't even touched it.
03:47I haven't even touched it.
03:48Ok, that's it for the night, ladies.
03:49Tom Gell, we'll talk to you tomorrow night, in the night, and the night, and the night,
03:50it was a solid soul night.
03:51Until then, good night, and be careful.
03:53Hey, you have a drink.
03:54Where's the drink gone?
03:55Excuse me. I had a full drink there. They've taken it away.
04:00We're closed. It's not an all-night bloody drinking club.
04:02Full drink? I haven't even touched it.
04:04Shut up and get out.
04:05Listen, I had a full drink on that table.
04:08Are you trying to make trouble?
04:11I'm going to complain about you. Take your hands off me.
04:14Take your hands off me.
04:17Leave him alone!
04:19Get up him!
04:20Oh, help him, please!
04:22Leave him alone!
04:22Oh, look what you've done to me, you dirty master!
04:26Shut up!
04:27Come on, get out.
04:28Oh, I'm going to kill me! I've just had to say he's mine!
04:31And I'm reporting you to the police!
04:33Shut up, you little shaggy. Get out!
04:36Oi, come on!
04:38Out!
04:47You was a great help.
04:49Yeah, well, they weren't exactly the wild bunch, were they?
04:51Now, who do I see about getting paid?
04:54Me.
04:56Well?
05:05No.
05:05Should be three of those.
05:07Tenner.
05:08And another fiver for VAT.
05:11Now, look here, pal.
05:12Now, don't give me any look here, pal, business.
05:14A mate of mine phoned me up, asked me to stand in for him, right?
05:17He said three fivers.
05:19That's what I'm leaving here with.
05:20How terribly kind.
05:32The next time your mate can't make it, I'll find a debt.
05:37With the money you're paying, you'll probably get my medallion, won't you?
05:40Well, it's all these dopey jobs you'll get involved with.
05:51Well, Dennis wanted a night off.
05:52Yeah.
05:53Dennis will be having a lot of nights off.
05:55How do you mean?
05:56You see the papers?
05:58No.
05:58Four of them.
06:00Thought they had it away with a Belgian juggernaut.
06:03Six old bills sitting in the back.
06:06Oh, dear old Lord.
06:07Your name was up for that and all.
06:11Oh, that's nice, isn't it?
06:13I said, no, not my Terry.
06:14You don't want to know about pickaxe handles and shooters.
06:25Not that I've gone over to the other side, I said.
06:27It's just that like Sweden during the war, we're declaring our neutrality.
06:30Oh, my God, go on, what's this?
06:38What have you done, Arthur?
06:40Stum, Terry.
06:42Very, very stum.
06:51Hello, Mr. Chisholm.
06:52I never knew this was your gaff, Arthur.
06:55I didn't say it was.
06:57What's the trouble?
06:57I mean, we've got no record of you as landlord, tenant or registered keyholder.
07:03What's the problem?
07:04You've had the burglars around.
07:06Don't suppose you caught them?
07:09A troll car spotted them.
07:10Oh.
07:11But we're not sure where they, uh, coming out or still trying to get in.
07:16It is your place, is it?
07:17Yeah, well, sort of.
07:19Well, let's take a look inside and we'll see if they've got away with anything.
07:22No, no, no, no, not necessary at all.
07:24What have you got in there?
07:26Odds and ends.
07:28Very nice of you fellas to, uh, take an interest.
07:33I'll let you know if there's anything missing.
07:36Yeah, all right, Arthur.
07:41You'll be well insured, I suppose.
07:44No worries.
07:45National fidelity.
07:47Nah.
07:48Terry.
07:49Terry.
07:49Well, just remember, Arthur, if you're going away for the weekend, don't forget to inform
07:58your local police station.
07:59There's a certainty to get your gap turned over then.
08:03See you, Mr. Chisholm.
08:08All right, Arthur.
08:09No wonder Sir Keith Joseph keeps on about, Lord and Order.
08:12I go everywhere you look, tea leaves.
08:23Shut the door.
08:24All right, all right.
08:25You're at the long firm again, aren't you?
08:36What are you talking about?
08:38I've paid for all this.
08:40It's bent gear, innit?
08:41You want to get me nicked again, don't you?
08:42Terry, this is all kosher.
08:45Then why didn't you want the law to have a look?
08:47Because it's none of their business.
08:49Do you think they have the law poking their nose in every five minutes down at Arends?
08:52Nice suit.
08:55Swedish.
08:57Hey, you like a nice Oscar Jacobson, don't you?
08:59Get your jacket off.
09:00Try this one off.
09:02Just your colour.
09:03Grey Ellenbone.
09:05There we are.
09:07Listen, just because I'm trying it on, don't mean to say I've bought it.
09:09No bother.
09:12130 quid in the shops.
09:15Oh, yes, oh, yes.
09:17You look the business in that, my son.
09:19No bother.
09:20Oh, yes, you can have that one.
09:2170.
09:23Do what?
09:24All right, then give me 50.
09:25Listen, I wouldn't pay 50 for a suit that fitted.
09:29Now, come on, Arthur.
09:30This is all bent, innit?
09:32Terry, on my landlord's life, this is all straight.
09:35I have got bills of sale, receipts, invoices.
09:38Show me, then.
09:39No, the fellas bring it round.
09:41Insurance people.
09:42Container burst open.
09:43Happens all the time.
09:44All I've done was buy a job lot.
09:46It's all export stuff.
09:47Export?
09:48You just said this was made in Sweden.
09:49Yeah, well, import as well.
09:50Now, look, how about this?
09:51500 copies of the digest edition of the collected works of Charles Bleed and Dickens.
09:56Now, you're not going to tell me that's Swedish, are you?
09:57Now, what we've got to do is shift this lot and get some stronger locks for those doors.
10:03And...
10:03And what?
10:05Work out who it was who sussed the gear was here and tried to break in last night.
10:10I suppose it's never occurred to you that it might be a few pals of the geezer you bought it off of.
10:14Do you know what, young Terrence?
10:17It probably was.
10:20I'm knocking these out at three quid a bottle.
10:40Is that about right?
10:41Yeah, that's about right, isn't it?
10:44Going there tonight, buy three large ones, you bought yourself a bottle back.
10:46Ha-ha!
10:47Very clever.
10:48Bloody publicans.
10:49Three weeks and I'll be out of pocket.
10:50The shadow of your smile, when you are gone, will color all my dreams and light the dawn.
11:12Look into my eyes, my love, and see all the lovely things you are to me.
11:28She's hitting the nostalgia, see.
11:32Oh, yeah.
11:32A wistful little star was far too high.
11:42A teardropped kissed your lips and so...
11:44Dear old Lord, good way it went to your pub, isn't it?
11:48Oh, now that's what I really call a song.
11:51Hey?
11:52Oh, what a knockout.
11:55Huh?
11:55It's hardly a capital chart climber, is it?
12:06Well, don't tell me you know about music, for God's sake.
12:08That, that, um, was, um, 1965, if my memory serves me right.
12:13Liz Taylor and, uh, the Welshman, uh, what's his name in the film?
12:1765?
12:18Yeah.
12:19Yeah, Cassius Clay changed his name.
12:21After dumping Liston after one minute in the first.
12:23You can't fault me on history, my son.
12:25When did Harold get in the eye?
12:29Oh, I don't know.
12:30I didn't see that fight.
12:32The shadow of your smile
12:36Smile
12:40Beautiful.
12:50Knockout.
12:51Oh, tar.
12:52Uh, well, I'll tell you what, Donnie.
12:57Basically, it's a rock and roll pub, you know what I mean?
13:00So, um...
13:01So you don't want to know?
13:02No, I don't.
13:09You're all the bloody same, you lot!

25:53Oh, yeah, sure. What do you want to do?
25:55Who can I turn to?
25:57What key?
25:58Well, I don't know, do I?
26:00You're the pianist.
26:02You're the one who's supposed to know about things like that.
26:05Oh, er, yeah.
26:07Er, it's this one, isn't it?
26:13Yeah, but that's too high.
26:15And I do it ever slow.
26:17Oh, all right.
26:18Well, as the man said, you start with Valia.
26:21All right.
26:22Oh, I won't. I never even heard of it.
26:24Shut up.
26:28What do you mean you don't fancy it?
26:31Well, it's not my scene, is it, that kind of music?
26:33I am launching a star.
26:36Well, there ain't going to be any riots down there, are there?
26:39And you'll be glad handing it all over the place.
26:41You don't need me, mate.
26:42I thought you might like to share in a moment of triumph.
26:48Look, I've said good luck and all that, haven't I?
26:53Anyway, I've been doing that metrication all day.
26:57I'm going to meet a bird at night.
26:58Bring her down!
27:01I'll promise to take her for a Greek meal.
27:03Well, give her a quick don of kebab and chips and bring her down.
27:06No, she's into soul music.
27:08I'll tell you what, I'll see how it goes, all right?
27:10Oh, thank you.
27:11Very considerate.
27:15Oh, and, uh, Arthur,
27:17you know the sofa situation.
27:20Not tonight, eh?
27:21Have I asked?
27:22No, but...
27:22Hotels all over the place, you know.
27:24Well, it's all right then, isn't it?
27:25Terrific.
27:26Terrific.
27:29Might one inquire who is this little creature
27:31that makes you forsake your friends?
27:35Aerostess.
27:36Oh, not the little dark-haired job.
27:40Yes.
27:42I mean, she's not exactly jet-set, is she?
27:45I mean, she's not on Mandy flying me to Dallas, Texas.
27:48No, her name is Penny,
27:49and she works on the, uh,
27:51London to Manchester shuttle service.
27:53Yeah, you don't exactly have to be fluent in three languages for that, do you?
27:56All she needs is a good umbrella.
27:59At least you don't sing.
28:02Terrance.
28:02Who can I turn to
28:10When nobody meets me
28:15My heart wants to know
28:19And so I must go
28:21Where destiny leads me
28:24With no one to guide me
28:29And no one beside me
28:34I'll go on my way
28:37And after the day
28:39The darkness will hide me
28:43And maybe tomorrow
28:46I'll find what I've done
28:50Monday night, innit?
28:51Anyway, most nights you don't come in till the booth is closed.
28:54Yeah, vodka, sir.
28:54Wait, where is everybody?
29:01Oh, probably not.
29:02I don't know.
29:03The record producers.
29:04The faces.
29:05The guests.
29:07I didn't show.
29:08On a new day
29:10But who
29:12Can I turn to
29:13If you
29:15Turn
29:15Turn
29:16Away
29:17Turn
29:18Away
29:19They'll be doing come dancing next week.
29:35She's got another vodka in there.
29:36I would now like to do
29:40A lovely love song
29:43Called
29:44The Shadow of Your Smile
29:47The Shadow of Your Smile
29:56When you are gone
30:02What colour of my dreams
30:06You took
30:07And died
30:08The time
30:10Look into my
30:14My
30:17Oh my god
30:18Hey, that's
30:26One, twenty
30:27Sorry about that
30:28This is your DJ here
30:29At the music room
30:30And here we go
30:31With our first number
30:32Don't you fret
30:42My darling
30:43Yeah
30:43Freddie
30:45Oh, God
30:47They're all pigs
30:51Oh, God
30:52They don't appreciate nothing
30:55No, no, you're quite right
30:56My dear
30:57Dress looked nice, sir
30:58Sorry, Sharon
31:01It wasn't very much together
31:02You and your band
31:04You wouldn't be nicked
31:05It wasn't our fault
31:06Well, whose fault was it then?
31:08Well, she just did a few bum notes
31:09That's all
31:10Bum notes?
31:11You weren't exactly
31:12Matt O'Varney yourself
31:13Who?
31:16Who, he says
31:17Matt O'Varney
31:20Famous musician
31:22Bloody great orchestra
31:23Could play anything
31:23Oh, well
31:24The difficult numbers
31:25For a bandwagon hours
31:26Listen
31:26For three hundred quid a go
31:28You should be able to get through
31:29The Warsaw Concerto
31:30Three hundred?
31:31Your poxy fee
31:32We got twenty-five quid
31:33And that's a five more
31:34Than last time
31:34What did you say?
31:37Twenty-five
31:38Dry her tears
31:41You
31:49You turned me over
31:50Calm down, Mr. Daly
31:53Calm down
31:53You had six hundred quid off me
31:55She went on
31:56She went off
31:56Not my fault
31:57Where are people?
31:58The record producers
31:59Are celebs
31:59Didn't show
32:00Invites
32:02Telephone calls
32:02Did I try my best, John?
32:04Worked our fingers to the bone, didn't we?
32:06You're lying
32:06I want my dough back
32:07Then all I can suggest
32:09Is that you put the matter
32:10In the hands of your legal ability
32:11Advisors
32:11I don't have legal advisors, sonny
32:14I have people who come round
32:15And punch your little head in
32:16That's a very nasty threat, Mr. Daly
32:19Made in front of witnesses
32:20In fact, you'd better show Mr. Daly the door, John
32:23Hey, watch it, watch it
32:25That's an 80-ginny velvet
32:27Don't we get messed up now, do we, Mr. Daly?
32:31You don't know me, son, do you?
32:33Well, we have heard the name
32:34What was that old election slogan?
32:39Yesterday's people
32:40That's a trouble, isn't it, Mr. Daly?
32:43Times change, don't they?
32:46See ya
32:46Here, I cracked it with this metrication
33:01You see, one inch equals two and a half centimeters
33:03Yeah, well forget all that
33:04They had me over, Terry
33:05No stars on Sunday
33:07That Chris is gonna be seeing some stars
33:09Forty? That's a 17 collar
33:12Near enough
33:13Collar? I thought it was a chest size
33:16They tucked me up very nice
33:17Poxy band
33:19Record executives
33:21Producers
33:21They had about ten squatters in the place
33:23Sharing half a pint of shandy between them
33:25Well, that's show business, Arthur
33:27It's diabolical business
33:28Six hundred sobs
33:30That man, that little flash, Chris
33:33He stole my money
33:34And that is a crime
33:35That is a liberty
33:37So you forget all that metrication
33:38And get over there and give him a pull
33:40Get the money back?
33:42Right
33:43Well, supposedly he don't want to pay
33:45Then he gets a spank
33:47And he keeps getting spanked
33:49Till he does want to pay
33:50Hmm
33:52What do you mean?
33:54Hmm
33:54I mean, those days are over, aren't they?
33:59Eh?
34:00Putting the frighteners on
34:01Helping one of the chaps out
34:03Collecting bad gambling debts
34:05Gambling debt?
34:06That man stole my money
34:08No, he didn't, Arthur
34:10He just ripped you off
34:11Which is your game, innit?
34:13I mean, how many mug punters
34:14Have you had over, eh?
34:15Now, you thought you were on a winner, didn't you?
34:17With Fulham's answer to Dusty Springfield
34:19But you were wrong
34:20All right?
34:21You lost
34:21So what?
34:22Tough
34:23The man threatened me
34:24Oh, what's he gonna do it?
34:26You're over the head
34:26With his silver bracelet
34:27Marvellous, isn't it?
34:30I mean, here you are
34:31Supposed to be minding out for me
34:32I'll come to you with a genuine grievance
34:34And you don't want to know
34:35That's gonna sound good on a man, innit?
34:37That's gonna do a lot for my image
34:38Your image?
34:40Listen, sunshine
34:43I am I, the respected person
34:44Oh, yeah?
34:46And where would that be?
34:47Sunshine
34:48A few afternoon drinking clubs
34:50Car auctions
34:51A few old villains with long memories
34:53I don't know what's got into you
34:55I mean, have I?
34:56Have I?
34:56Have I?
34:56Have I not done you a favour, Arthur?
34:58Oh, four, even
34:59Looked after your mum while you were away?
35:02Here we go, yeah
35:03Dropped round with a few prezzies?
35:05Oh, yeah
35:05A nice set of drail on curtains
35:08As advertised on Police 5
35:09She can't live without them
35:10Set you up when you came out?
35:12You're getting there, Arthur
35:13But now you're setting me up
35:15To go back in again
35:16Look, I'm not asking you
35:17To go and shoot the geezer
35:18All I want is a little friendly retribution
35:20I'm sorry, Arthur
35:22I'm not doing it
35:22Look
35:23He nicked 600 out of my pocket
35:25And what you are saying
35:26Is I should just stand for that, eh?
35:27No, I'm not saying that
35:28Well, what are you saying, then?
35:30Well, there's got to be something else, isn't there?
35:31I don't know
35:32Solicitor's letters
35:33I mean, 600, it's high finance, innit?
35:37Just sussed it
35:39Bottle job
35:41Uh-uh
35:42Adams, you said so yourself in the past
35:45There is always going to be somebody better
35:48Well, it has come to pass
35:50That Chris has got himself well protected
35:52You've made your decision
35:54Swallowed it
35:55Oi
35:56Look at me
35:58Am I trembling?
36:00The guy that got down there
36:01That I could have him over in 10 seconds
36:03Including the count
36:04Course you could
36:05Then you'd have a whack at that, Chris
36:06Walk out with the money
36:07And there'd be a nice drink in it for you
36:08Yeah
36:09And then little Chris phones the old bill
36:11I get done for assault
36:12And demanding money with menaces
36:13Look, can't I get it through to you?
36:15I'm not doing it
