00:30With a tuneless handle like Tarquin Perum Eats, you need to have a degree of self-confidence.
00:36A stiff upper lip and gold cufflinks works wonders when you're ailing a cab.
00:40The problem, as any cabbie will tell you, is trying to pull a decent tip.
00:45Short arms and long pockets, that lot.
00:55We've got constantly painted pockets in.
00:58See what I mean?
01:026 o'clock, on the dock, Tarquin Perum is in with a squeaky plimsoll and black-eyed mafia. Sweating himself
01:07stupid.
01:097.35, back to the smart address to change.
01:158.30, fish fingers and chips, washed down with an unassuming little caught on Charlemagne.
01:2010 o'clock, back to the gaff for an earful of showband.
01:2510.30, Horlicks in his jubilee muck.
01:3011 o'clock, silk pyjamas, posture springing, five pages of Winston Churchill's war speeches and a swift wind of the
01:37alarm clock.
01:3711 o'clock, I'm beginning to think that Tarquin Perum Eads, Esquire, has got a stopwatch for an art and
01:45embalming fluid instead of blood.
01:4812 o'clock, bob and 10 o'clock, a 65-50, a 45 percentil.
01:5212 o'clock, bob and 10 o'clock, a 20 o'clock.
01:5612 o'clock, bob and 10 o'clock, a 25 o'clock, a 45 minute.
02:0712 o'clock, a 45-50, a 65-50, a 45-50, a 45-50.
02:14One, his wife has got a lot of water.

04:23Skye
04:23in advance for a cool shooting
04:24in Tarquin to work off Gregory's pound of flesh and, surprise, surprise.
04:45Hello, hello, hello.
04:47We could have the top off my head in the morning.
05:07I wonder what the SP on those two little lust pots is.
05:12This could be a long wait, my son.
05:21I've got to get this set sorted.
05:22Two hours of Radio One is enough to give anyone terminal piles.
05:26I see my name.
05:28Don't go back.
06:10I can see my family.
06:14He never whistles after playing squash.
06:19I think a swift shifty of that drum is most definitely indicated.
06:46Wow.
06:53A touch of the heart was bizarre, to say the least.
07:05It didn't take a vivid imagination to suss out that Tarquin Perrin had been playing Alsatians.
07:10But this, I mean, technology.
07:35This production made Okalcutta look like a festival of light committee meeting.
07:48There you go.
08:07So, guys, we're going to take a moment of time.
08:18Obviously Tarquin Perum still gets a buzz from playing doctors and nurses.
08:27I've got a fair memory for faces, especially pretty faces.
08:31This one looked very familiar.
08:44Vinnie, I was going to bail you.
08:47When? Christmas.
08:55Come in, Vinnie. Sit down, Vinnie.
08:58Make yourself comfortable, Vinnie. Have a drink, Vinnie.
09:01It's nice to see you, Vinnie. It's been a long time, Vinnie.
09:08You've been taking a course in welding?
09:15You bastard. Where have you been?
09:17I've seen it somewhere. I know it was.
09:20Shall I come back?
09:21I've lost something.
09:22Say that again.
09:28Bingo.
09:29You done this Muffet?
09:31Her name's Sally Darrell.
09:34Six months ago, her father came down from Yorkshire looking for her. He was in a right state.
09:38She'd done a runner.
09:39Been spotted in the Slaggin' Dipper Mile.
09:44Isn't that T.P. Eads?
09:46No.
09:47I thought I did.
09:50He's been a friend of the family ever since I was expelled from my first boarding school.
09:54I thought he got his turn on from the Investor's Chronicle.
09:57You should see his chicken for that.
09:59Where'd you get these from?
10:00I borrowed them.
10:02That's where I've been all week.
10:04Gum chair in T.P. for Gregory Payne.
10:06Some executive personality check.
10:08An American consortium.
10:10It's been one of those weeks.
10:13Sorry, I meant to call you.
10:26Tequila and orange juice.
10:29How do you like your eggs?
10:34Yeah, well, they're not that funny.
10:36What are they doing here?
10:39They're the joke about the nun and a bunch of bananas, isn't it?
10:43I was right about Eads, then.
10:45He says, with blushing modesty.
10:46You've done well, James.
10:48Yeah, well, I feel sorry for the geezer.
10:50Detachment, James.
10:51A necessary prerequisite for your vocation.
10:54Yeah, well, the next time you want the clog put in on someone as harmless as Tarquin Perrin,
10:58do me a favour.
10:59Try Yellow Pages, will you?
11:09Detachment.
11:10That's one of those words that's easy to use when you're on 30 grand a year.
11:21It only took a phone call to trace the registration on the maroon mini.
11:25Sheena Wilson.
11:26Who wants to know?
11:27I'm a friend of Sally's.
11:29Who?
11:30Sally Durham.
11:31Never heard of her.
11:32Oh, no, I'm sure you don't mean that.
11:37What's your game?
11:38Police.
11:38Where's your ID?
11:39Where's your feathers?
11:40Last time I saw you, you were playing a randy foul.
11:43How did you find out?
11:45And who the hell are you?
11:46James Hazel, I'm a private investigator.
11:48I want to talk to Sally Durham.
11:49She's not here.
11:50You do know her, then?
11:51So what?
11:52Look, you tell any more lies in.
11:53Your teeth are going to fall out.
11:54She was here.
11:55We were sharing.
11:56She's left.
11:56When?
11:57A couple of months back.
11:58Where to?
11:58I don't know.
11:59Look, I was a cousin.
12:00I've still got a lot of friends in the filth.
12:02Now, you don't want some great airy DS from the Vice Squad checking to see if you've laid
12:04any eggs lately.
12:05Now, do you?
12:06You bastard.
12:09Look, all I want to do is find Sally and give her a message from her dad.
12:13Her father?
12:14Didn't you know she was an official missing person?
12:16No.
12:16No, I didn't.
12:17You do now.
12:18Well, she never used to talk much about her family or anything.
12:22You're not snowing me.
12:25Cross me credit cards.
12:38She gave me this number.
12:40I don't know the address.
12:41Thanks.
12:42Don't tell her where you got it from.
12:45The address surprised me.
12:47A touch-top drawer for an apprentice Tom like Sally Durham to be hanging out in.
12:51I mean, from Batley to Knightsbridge in less than a year?
12:55That's quite a tango.
12:59Southwest One does something for you.
13:01Especially when you ain't got enough dough to pay for the inside of a matchbox.
13:17Now, that's a face I'm never likely to forget.
13:19Full frontal or profile.
13:21Vic Priest.
13:23He's been on the A-list of every nick he's been in.
13:25South London's answer to Al Capone.
13:28You don't mess with our Vic.
13:30Not unless you number an orthopedic surgeon amongst your close acquaintances.
13:43Me instinct screamed at me to get on me bike while the two sides of me body still matched.
13:48But I kept wondering if she knew what she was letting herself in for.
13:51Getting mixed up with an hooligan like Vic Priest.
14:02So much for detachment.
14:18Nice dog.
14:20What is it?
14:22Saluki.
14:23Touch of the greyhounds?
14:25Same family.
14:27Talking of families, have you heard from your dad lately?
14:29I beg your pardon?
14:31He was down here about six months ago looking for you.
14:33Who are you?
14:35James Azle.
14:37I'm a private investigator.
14:39Your dad hired me to help him find you.
14:41I am over 18.
14:43Does that stop him from worrying sick about you?
14:45He doesn't care about me.
14:47No?
14:47Never did.
14:49Well, that's not the impression I got when he gave me this.
14:55Did he tell you why I left?
14:57No.
14:58No, he wouldn't.
15:00Why?
15:01I was pregnant.
15:03He called me a whore.
15:05He hit me.
15:06He burnt all me clothes.
15:09Maybe he's sorry now.
15:10Sorry.
15:12What happened then?
15:13I lost the baby a week after I came down here.
15:17No, stay.
15:18There's no point in going back.
15:19Not now.
15:20It's too late.
15:21Well, you don't look as if you're starving.
15:23Well, I mean, why not?
15:24He called me a whore, so why not?
15:26You might as well get paid for what you are.
15:28You enjoy being owned?
15:30Owned?
15:31Vic Priest.
15:32Vic doesn't own me.
15:33Try telling him that.
15:34If I tell Vic about you, mate, I'll be there.
15:36It opened my head.
15:37Yeah, I know.
15:37I know more about Vic Priest than you'll ever know.
15:39I could show you half a dozen poor bastards he's crippled.
15:42Vic's been very good to me.
15:43He's rubbish.
15:44And when he's finished with you, you'll be back brassing.
15:46Out in the jungle with all the other old drippers.
15:51Why don't you go home, love?
15:54I can't.
15:56Look, I don't want him to know what I am.
15:58Would only hurt him more.
16:01I'll do a deal with you.
16:02Oh, what sort of deal?
16:04I won't tell your dad where you are if you write to him.
16:07Oh, but how can I?
16:08I mean, I can't tell him.
16:10Lie a little.
16:11I mean, tell him you're right.
16:12Tell him he's got a job.
16:14Decent place to live.
16:15Tell him you want some time.
16:17Sort yourself out.
16:19Tell him you'll write to him.
16:20Maybe phone from time to time.
16:24All right.
16:27You, uh, send a letter to me.
16:31I'll post it on to him.
16:32All right?
16:33Yeah.
16:39Tom.
16:43I'll be expecting it.
16:46If you, uh, ever need someone to buy you a cup of coffee, you can reach me at that number.
16:50Thanks.
16:50I'm sorry.
17:21Ah.
17:21I know something.
17:23It'll haunt me.
17:23You're a dead ringer for the fellow who used to rent that office.
17:26Name of Hazel?
17:27Know him.
17:28Heard of him.
17:29Handsome out.
17:30We haven't seen him for a week.
17:31We hoped he might have been run over or something.
17:33I've been grafted.
17:34I see you've thought of your mail.
17:35Is that the cheque you've been panting for?
17:37One hundred lovely smackaroos.
17:40Ha!
17:41What's the matter?
17:42That'll be all over a tennis court next week.
17:45Goblins.
17:45King of the Kiteflowers, him.
17:48You pulling my chain?
17:49You should see your face.
17:51Sadist.
17:52Sign the back and I'll cash it for you.
17:54Oh, all right.
17:54Good girl.
17:56There's just one thing.
17:57Mm-hmm.
17:59You, um...
18:00Oh, the petty cash, thirty-five.
18:01I'll deduct it.
18:02You snake.
18:04Dot wants to see you.
18:14You got enough there to marinate an elephant?
18:16There's nothing more boring than a reformed piss artist.
18:19Where have you been?
18:20Working.
18:20Hmm.
18:21For who?
18:23Or should that be who?
18:25I want a bit of loose grammar against you.
18:26Gigi.
18:27Right first time.
18:28Yeah.
18:29Well, you might have phoned.
18:30You're beginning to sound like Vinnie.
18:32Have you seen her?
18:33Last night.
18:35All night?
18:36Consenting, adult.
18:37I don't.
18:39I don't know what she sees in you.
18:40Yeah, well, I'll start worrying when you do.
18:45You, uh, have been trouble with your feet, though?
18:48I accepted them in lieu of a bad debt.
18:50Two hundred pairs, size twelve.
18:53Nets.
18:53Know anyone who might be interested?
18:55Maybe.
18:56Cash.
18:57Of course.
18:58In my hand.
18:59Where else?
19:01Only I've met some of your business acquaintances.
19:03They'd sell their mother for a packet of fags.
19:05Fifteen percent.
19:06Leave it to me.
19:07Five.
19:07Twelve and a half.
19:08Seven and a half.
19:09Ten.
19:10You're on.
19:26What's all this then, Chell?
19:27All our yesterdays?
19:28It takes me back a bit, Jimbo.
19:30Here.
19:31Do you remember that whistle I had?
19:32Sam Art the Special.
19:33What?
19:34Ten-inch pullets.
19:35Eight button jackets.
19:37Blue velvet trims.
19:38Red silk jive.
19:39Bresket.
19:40Kneppin' heads.
19:40And that was.
19:41What Saturday night, honey?
19:43Couple of times the snoops up Burton's.
19:45In the drinker.
19:46Six pints of tex.
19:47Then.
19:48Down at parley.
19:49Recreet.
19:50With the Richard.
19:51Snog.
19:52On top of the bus.
19:53Takin' it home.
19:54Then back with the lads.
19:56It's like they punch up with a silver tail, right?
19:58Yeah.
19:59Don't make Saturday nights like that no more.
20:02You're just an old romantic.
20:05What's this?
20:06You ain't started washing again, have you?
20:07Ah.
20:08Swimming.
20:09I thought the nearest you ever got to water was going for a car wash.
20:12Yeah.
20:12You should see my breaststroke.
20:15Ah, put on my way.
20:16You ain't got much room for your sandwiches.
20:17Come on, leave them out.
20:18Leave them out, will ya?
20:19I'm wearing them here for a friend, aren't I?
20:21Yeah, tiger.
20:21Yeah, listen.
20:22You should have been down in a red car last night.
20:24They had that sheeny stripper bag, didn't they?
20:26Boy, did you get a steamer.
20:28Her old bum going like a beeswing.
20:31Yeah, well I was otherwise engaged, eh?
20:32Oh yeah?
20:33Given that smart bit with the dogs attached to the postural variations, eh?
20:37You're talking about a woman I love.
20:38True, true.
20:39Ah, two T's John please, strong.
20:42You, er...
20:43Know anyone who could shift 200 pairs of men's, size 12?
20:46Dresses?
20:47Oh, shoes?
20:48Sure.
20:48It's good gear.
20:49All right, all right.
20:50Been clagging up Dot's office.
20:51I reckon she'd let them go for two quid a box.
20:54Well, 400?
20:54That's giving them away.
20:55Well, size 12 don't only fit closers.
20:58They're straight.
20:58Oh, I don't know, tiger.
20:59I can go elsewhere.
21:00No, no, no, about.
21:02Let's see.
21:05Yeah, all right.
21:06Don't do me no favours.
21:07You're all in a right mood, ain't ya?
21:09Do you remember that young piece went missing from, er, Batley?
21:12Er, yeah, it was a while back.
21:14I found it.
21:15Where?
21:15With Vic Priest.
21:17Back off, Jimmy.
21:18While you still get your kneecaps?
21:20I had a word with her.
21:20Where you been living, son?
21:21In a bleeding tree.
21:23You stick your nose up, Vic Priest, you'll be an accident looking for a place to happen.
21:26I can handle it.
21:27Oh, yeah?
21:27Do you know what he done to that face who grasped on a mate of his?
21:30Nailed him by his tongue to the bog door.
21:32Evil bastard.
21:33Yeah, Vic Priest is an egg case, and you got your sniffer into his private life.
21:36For what?
21:3825 a day and all found?
21:39That's not enough to tip the bloody grave digger.
21:42By the time I left town, he was sweating ball bearings.
21:46Mark did.
21:47He told me stories about Vic Priest that had my sphincter singing a solo.
21:51I suddenly felt knackered.
21:53What was a week o'clock in top in Perham?
21:56And then Vinnie sorted me out last night.
21:58I needed a crash for a few hours.
21:59I preconceΔiigi got quite a few hours.
22:41I always thought that bastard would bleed battery acid.
22:46They're not so big like that.
22:48They never do.
22:50Who, Jockey?
22:51I mean, who'd have the bottle to snuff Vic Priest?
22:54I was hoping you mightn't like me, Sonny Jim.
22:57I hope that's your warped, Celtic sense of humour working overtime.
23:00Observe my demeanour, you East End misfit.
23:03You can get more of a smile from a stone.
23:06Now, you've backed the wrong pony, Fruit.
23:08Have I, just?
23:10If you hadn't appalled me just now, in a manner which I may have caused me considerable inconvenience,
23:14I wouldn't have known the evil Vic had copped it till I'd read it in the chip wrappers.
23:18You're trying to tell me you had no contact whatsoever with the deceased?
23:21Nil, nada, nicht, zero.
23:23And his mistress?
23:25Mystery?
23:26His rump, his rattle, his grumble and grunt, or whatever gross euphemism takes your fancy.
23:33I, uh...
23:33Before that bent computer starts searching for a story,
23:38I found that in a quote she left behind.
23:43Terrific.
23:45Recognise the illiterate squibble?
23:49Yesterday.
23:51Yesterday.
23:53I met her in the park.
23:54Well, I followed her to the park.
23:56From where?
23:58Here.
23:59What time?
24:00Eleven, about.
24:02Mm-hmm.
24:03Why'd you follow her to the park?
24:05I mean, why didn't you just ring the bell?
24:08Well, I was going to, but Vic Priest was leaving.
24:11I'm not wishing to be clocked, so I lode behind a park roller.
24:14I have a horrible feeling you're in this up to your little pink ears.
24:19You love drawing chalk lines around people, don't you, Chucky?
24:22Alive or dead.
24:30I'm sitting comfortably.
24:32Let's have it.
24:33From the top.
24:41Her name's Sally Durham.
24:44Six months ago, her father came down...
24:46When Chucky's in that sort of mood, you don't mess with him.
24:48I gave him the SP on the lot, right through to Gigi, Tarquin Perrim and the Mews House Circus.
24:53His face didn't crack once.
24:55Not even when I told him about the fox and the chickens.
24:59We have been a busy little bee.
25:02Here, Chucky.
25:04Do you reckon she might have bricked him?
25:06Possibly.
25:07Because if she didn't, she must have seen who did.
25:10Possibly.
25:10Else why should she have it on her arches?
25:12Why, indeed.
25:15Am I boring you, John?
25:18You, Sonny Jim, are a constant source of amazement to me.
25:21You have a talent bordering on genius for getting up my funnel.
25:25I'll bet you say that to all the boys.
25:28Can I go now?
25:29With a word of paternal caution.
25:32I want Sally Durham and I want her fast.
25:35If you get a sniff of her, I want to hear about it slightly sooner than instantly.
25:39Look, if she did see you shot Evil Vic...
25:41And let's face it, he was on the top of a lot of heavy hate lists.
25:44She's not likely to be wagging her daily around town too much.
25:46I'll find her.
25:48Before they do?
25:49Because if you don't, my old Scotch mist, you'd better book another drawer at the morgue.
25:54Get out before I forget our Christian.
26:00What a sick nut.
26:03Just when I thought I'd got Sally Durham sorted, it all goes reels of cotton.
26:09Mark you.
26:10I cannot pretend that Evil Vic's demise was anything but an improvement in the lot of mankind.
26:30I've heard about the salt pot in the sock, but this is ridiculous.
26:34My head felt like it'd have been used in an FA replay.
26:39Now off him, boys of late.
26:42I only stroked him.
27:07Look, if this is about my phone bill...
27:09Shut it!
27:36No problem.
27:37No, it's silk.
27:39What's this magical mystery toy all about, Guff?
27:42Yeah, he's a trap, he bastard. Always was.
27:44We know each other.
27:46Just shut your crack and listen.
27:48Obviously educated.
27:49Oh, manners.
27:54That jock filth pulled you two hours ago.
27:57So you know about Mr. Priest.
27:59Let's take the three-footed spot.
28:01Sorry.
28:04We want the girl.
28:06Girl?
28:08Girl, you are pleading for it.
28:12Sally Durham.
28:13Oh, that girl.
28:15Sorry, can't help you.
28:17Oh, you're too modest, Mr. Hayes.
28:19She done a runner.
28:20Where?
28:21Now, if I knew that, I'd have told Minty.
28:23Did you?
28:23Believe me, I don't even know her.
28:25You were with her yesterday.
28:27You rabbit in a way like I could.
28:28Look, that's the first time I'd laid eyes on you.
28:30Bloody liar.
28:31Of my life.
28:32No, Mr. Hayes.
28:34You've got it all wrong there.
28:36Wrong?
28:37On your young lady's life.
28:41Vinnie?
28:42Is that her name?
28:44Very tasty.
28:47You've got Vinnie.
28:48Next door.
28:50Now, you're going to have to prove that to me.
28:53Show him.
29:18Oh, that's fair.
29:22Oh!
29:24I don't know where Sally Durham is.
29:26Then you're going to have to find her.
29:29Look, she could be anywhere.
29:32I'm told you're an ex-policeman, a private investigator,
29:36a colleague and personal friend of Mr. Middleton Squire.
29:42I'm told you have a nose like a laser.
29:45I'm told you have photographs of Mr. Durham.
29:48It took me six months to find her. Six months.
29:50I mean, she's got more reason to go missing now than ever.
29:52Mr. Hazel, I am a man of infinite patience.
29:59The patience of an oyster I have.
30:03But at this precise moment, I find myself in something of a dilemma.
30:10Please don't interrupt, Mr. Hazel.
30:15I'm sure you would agree with me
30:17that your present position is, to say the least, delicate.
30:22We've got you by the shortened curlies, Hazel.
30:26Undoubtedly, you were aware for some years
30:28that Mr. Priest was a vicious, lying, festering pig
30:32who badly needed chastising.
30:35I consider that I and my associates have done the community
30:38an immeasurable service by removing his degenerative influence.
30:44However, the filth don't seem to share my view.
30:47Yeah, that can be funny like that.
30:49Quiet.
30:49So, my proposition, simple one.
30:55You find Miss Duttham before Mr. Minty
30:58and we will exchange your young lady unharmed for her.
31:04If I find...
31:05No ifs, Mr. Hazel.
31:08You find her.
31:10Because if you don't,
31:12your young lady is going to be on the missing persons list.
31:16Permanently.
31:19How do I contact you?
31:20You don't.
31:22Well, how do I let you know?
31:23Just find her, Mr. Hazel.
31:26Then we'll find you.
31:28Then we'll find you.
32:03I had a nagging suspicion
32:04that the face with a foreign verbal
32:06wasn't playing party games.
32:08If I didn't come across with Sally Durham
32:10in the next 24 hours,
32:11Vinny's dogs were going to end up at Battersea.
32:17Of course, I knew that the smudge of Sally Durham
32:19I gave Choggy
32:20was at this moment being worked around the jungle
32:21by his trusty team.
32:23The one small advantage I had
32:24was Sally's flatmate, Sheena.
32:26The wiener.
32:28What do you want this time?
32:30Can I come in?
32:31Is it about Sally?
32:32Yeah.
32:33Trouble.
32:33I've got to find her.
32:35What's happened?
32:36She witnessed a murder.
32:47Ever heard of Vic Priest?
32:49Who hasn't?
32:50Bicious bastard.
32:51He's dead.
32:52If anyone begged for it, he did.
32:53He was paying her bills.
32:55What?
32:55Set her up in a flat in Knightsbridge.
32:57Stupid little cow.
32:59That's he getting mixed up with an animal like Vic Priest.
33:01You didn't know?
33:02She told me she'd met someone.
33:04She didn't say who.
33:05Now I can see why.
33:07She's in dead luck
33:08because she can finger the face who topped him.
33:09They're out there in the street looking for her now
33:11and if I don't find her first,
33:12she won't be pulling any more tricks.
33:14Oh, bloody mess.
33:15How about the police?
33:17I think she did it.
33:18He was found in her flat,
33:19shot at close range.
33:20Sally couldn't kill anyone,
33:21not even a pig like him.
33:23If you know she didn't do it,
33:25why don't you tell them?
33:27It's not that simple.
33:29Where would she go?
33:31I don't know.
33:32I never knew her that well.
33:33She was always a bit secretive.
33:35She came from Yorkshire.
33:37Badly.
33:38If it was me,
33:39I'd head home.
33:41Oh, well, she won.
33:41No way.
33:42Not from what she's told me.
33:44She's hiding somewhere in the smoke,
33:45somewhere close.
33:46I'm sorry I can't help you.
33:49So where do you start looking
33:50for a frightened face
33:51amongst five million faces?
33:58Oh, well, I don't know.
34:37Follow me.
35:10It's all right, darling.
35:24I chapped up every snout, grass, tom, ponce and villain I could find.
35:28Those who meant he hadn't got to first either didn't know or didn't want to know.
35:33Looking for a needle in a-stack was a doddle compared to this here, eh?
35:37Oi.
35:39Hey, come in.
35:41Do you want to come in for some fun?
35:44No, thanks, darling.
35:45Just had every lunch.
35:48Do some of you know me?
35:51You haven't seen that girl, have you?
35:53Oh, piss off.
35:54Do some of you know me?
36:46I've been ringing you.
36:49Hello, Doc.
36:51Where have you been?
36:53Around.
36:56You've had a face as long as a milk round.
36:58What's up?
36:59Nothing.
36:59Nothing.
37:01I tell you aren't you, Doc.
37:04Did the child contact you?
37:06Did the child contact you?
37:07He did.
37:07And?
37:08He offered me 100.
37:10He offered me 100.
37:11I told him.
37:12400.
37:13Green.
37:13I told him to visit a taxidermist.
37:16Oh, he's a lump.
37:17Yeah.
37:18Well, he came back with 200 and I opted to 275.
37:20Listen, I was glad to be rid of it.
37:22Well, I'm glad it's sorted.
37:25What's the matter, Dumber?
37:28Oh, I'm feeling a bit naff.
37:29You must be.
37:30You haven't demanded your cut.
37:33What?
37:34Ten percent.
37:36Oh, yeah.
37:37Well, hang on to it for me, Doc, will you?
37:40Have you seen Vinnie today?
37:43Vinnie?
37:44Vinnie.
37:45You know, consenting adults.
37:48Er, no.
37:49I knew we had an appointment to meet an hour ago.
37:52I rang her up.
37:52I own her place.
37:53I own your place.
37:54All over.
37:54No one seems to have seen her.
37:56It's not like her to screw up a business appointment.
37:59Look, er, Doc, I've got to go.
38:01Something's worrying you, isn't it?
38:03Something to do with Vinnie?
38:04No.
38:05Well, look, if it is, I can easily...
38:07Look, Doc, for once in your life, take no for an answer, will you?
38:28Wait, wait, wait.
39:02That's all I needed.
39:03Bang heads with Minty.
39:11One consolation though, he was having about as much luck as I was.
39:14Let's pack it in for the night, eh?
39:17We're packing it, man.
39:18I say we're packing it.
39:19I say we're packing it.
39:58By midnight, I was so wild I couldn't think straight and I was getting precisely nowhere.
40:03I'd just had to have a couple of hours kit.
40:38I'm going to take a couple of hours.
40:45I'm going to take a couple of hours.
40:48Hello.
40:49Hello.
40:50Is that Mr Hayes?
40:52Who are you?
40:53Sally Durham.
40:55You've been looking for me.
40:57Me and Arthur Law are in London.
40:59Can we meet?
41:00Where?
41:01A car will pick you up.
41:22The face sent to pick me up was about as tilted as 200 weight of condemned veal.
41:28But gradually the route he was taking became uncomfortably familiar.
41:45Sally?
41:54Sally?
41:58Oi!
42:00What's your game?
42:01Shouldn't I be asking you that?
42:04Choggy.
42:06You've been bending ears.
42:09Flashing smudges, asking a lot of questions.
42:11I ask myself why.
42:12Why is Hazel busting a gut looking for Sally Durham?
42:16You told me to keep an ear open.
42:18Oh, I did?
42:18Said you wanted to find her fast.
42:20That too.
42:20Well, that's what I've been doing.
42:21Now you pull this number on me.
42:22You, Sonny Jim, are a lying little torag.
42:25Oh, that's nice.
42:26That's very nice.
42:27I want to know why you're in such a sweat trying to find Sally Durham.
42:30I want to know just how involved you are in this bloody mess.
42:34I want the truth.
42:35Want it now.
42:37Was that Sally on the Dog and Bone?
42:39She's been to the yard for the last hour looking at her albums.
42:42I asked her to phone you and told her what to say.
42:46You Scotch bastard.
42:48You've been lying to me.
42:50I had no choice.
42:52What's that Chinese for?
42:55You'd better get your envelope out again, Choggy.
42:59Look.
43:01Vinny has been kidnapped.
43:04Yeah.
43:04I mean, I got home.
43:05I was zapped on the head.
43:07Next thing I know, I'm...
43:08The only chance Vinny had now was for me to lay it out for Minty.
43:12He might give the impression that he's as rough as a coal bunker.
43:14But under that granite exterior, there beats an art of ground glass.
43:18Bundle down.
43:19Bundle up.
43:25Minty.
43:27She has?
43:29Who?
43:32Yeah, thank you.
