All language subtitles for Boon s02e01 Texas Rangers

Hello.

he can't attend every function he's
invited to.

There's still an official opening.

Yes, yes, I sent a letter.

Well, I mean, he regretted that he
wasn't able to attend.

No, no, no, no, but... Paddy, your chef
is impossible.

Look, all I'm asking for is ten minutes.

He wouldn't even have to wear this
chain.

Get the lead out.

No, sorry.

Could you repeat that?

No, no, no, it's just that... Ted!

Look, forget all about it. Forget it.
Yes, all right. Bye.

Ted!

I like the whistle, Larry.

Hey, your suit.

Very nice.

Oh, thank you very much.

the peg, you know. No, I can see that.

Can you?

Look, Ken, how about cutting the motor
before you come in to drive?

Well, as soon as you get it level,
Harry. I mean, it's quite difficult

uphill.

So what do you reckon?

The base station.

Bloody space station, more like. Come
on, give us a hand.

No, Ken. Come on, your clientele aren't
watching.

The owner of the Birmingham Hilton
doesn't have to do this. You'd have to

him in, wouldn't you?

How do you get on with the mower?

He's had my vote.

Where? Over here.

Next to where the phone's going.

I suppose you've got a licence for it,
Harry. Harry, you mind your business.

Yes, Ken, but you're running your
business on my property.

Our property.

Thank you, Harry.

No, it's just I feel responsible for
you, Ken.

Free enterprise hasn't exactly been your
forte.

I'd like to keep a watchful eye on you.

Thank you, Harry.

Wouldn't you be better off with a new
one?

Well, yes.

Before I got talked into investing the
proceeds of the Ponderosa, certainly I

could afford a new one.

You'll get it back, Ken.

Tenfold. It was a hundredfold before it
went in. Quibble, quibble.

Hey, tell me, doesn't this thing
presuppose a person at each end?

Harry, I will sort that out.

Well, I hope this is a well -advised
move, Ken.

I do.

You let me have it for a thousand quid
cash.

Flannery also included a list of his
customers.

Flannery?

Flannery's got so many fingers in so
many pies, he's got permanent shortcrust

pastry round his knuckles. It's not that
bad.

Anyway, where are you going?

I'm going to use your facilities.

Oh. No, wait a minute.

We'll have this off at least.

Oh, Harry. Come on.

Thank you, Ken. Thank you.

I used to go in and out on the Grand in
my bike gear, didn't I? The Grand was

different, Ken. A different quality of
guest entirely.

Oh, you mean I don't get sales reps
anymore?

Well, of course you'll get sales reps.

But what do they represent?

Last night we had Karl Nagerfeld perfume
stain.

Oh, really?

Yeah, at the Grand we'd have been lucky
to land carbonic soap.

Well, can't you just nail it back off?

My advice, Ken, always supervise
everything yourself.

Yes, well, I do, Harry, but I still
don't have any water in my flat.

Yes, all right, all right. You'll have
to use one of the bedrooms.

You stay there.

I'll get you a key.

Hello, Flannery.

Coming to deliver, were you?

Carl Longville.

Oh, sorry.

That was my fault. I thought the room
was empty.

It will be.

No, I'm not a guest.

I'll just clear it up.

Surely a staff can do that.

What? Debbie!

You are a guest, aren't you?

Debbie!

can't even spell guacamole, never mind
make it.

You brought me in to supervise the
catering. And very well you're doing it,

Gwyneth.

Couldn't you just come to some
accommodation, some halfway house?

There is no halfway house with this,
Harry.

You have the ingredients and you have
the dish.

I'll be gone next week, then you'll miss
me.

Mr Crawford, the morning post. Are they
wrong? No, but you asked me to remind

you if they didn't. Why, if you can,
tell me. A month to get this opening

Oh, but it shouldn't be difficult,
should it?

I made some food, a speaker, a bit of
publicity.

Yeah, Harry, about your new chambermaid.
All I need now is an outbreak of typhus

to wipe out me guests, and I've got me's
there.

Bloody engaged.

Yeah. Harry.

Good morning, Romany Riders.

Account number.

Pick up and destination, please.

Better have some answers for the man,
Flannery.

Ken! Ken!

It's all right, Harry. I'm going. You
can tell your clientele they can uncover

their eardrums. No, no, no. Where are
you going?

Well, I'm doing a round of the
customers.

Well, now, in Flannery, there won't be
too many of them.

Harry, with mates like you, I don't need
a bank manager.

Well, I worry about this messenger
business, Ken. I really do.

Still, never mind. Look, if you're going
anywhere near the centre, would you

bring something back for me? Sure.

What's this?

Well, it's a job, isn't it?

What do you mean, a job?

I mean, I only want you to fetch
something. I mean, you can do that for a

can't you? Yes, I know I can, but I'm
doing it for a living now.

So put it down there, top line.

First customer, Harry.

Oh, he was on me way right here.

I know I've been after Owen for a while
now.

But there you are.

That's all yours.

Grant. Four months back rental.

You'll be carrying on with your
concession then, will you?

Well, I don't know.

It's a bad patch.

It's not easy to make your way.

You wanted to get into the business, you
take the area I give you.

You persevere, you pay your percentages.

I might move you up market.

That's a very kind offer indeed.

But I'll probably give it a miss.

Concentrate on one of my other business
activities.

Equipment had gone.

We checked.

That was my radio equipment, Flannery.

What are you saying?

Somebody might have broken in right
after and... You sold it, didn't you?

No. That's how you raise this.

Who do you sell it to, Flannery?

Name and address?

Well, I... I don't know what you... My
father asked you who you sold it to,

Flannery. My name of Boone.

As I say, Mr. Plume.

Boone. Oh, Boone. My brother, Bottevard.

We shall not be needing your services
anymore.

I'm sorry to say.

Yep. Thank you very much. Okay, Mr.

Patel.

Whitefield Drapery, Oozle Street, York.

Could be your lucky day, Flannery.

You got your head screwed on right.

But if you're lying, I'll strip the
thread.

Took you long enough.

Something else for you inside.

Yes, I realise it's last minute and the
editor's a very busy man, but I have

been in touch and I didn't receive any
reply.

What? Yes, right, the news editor.

Yes, if you could transfer... Oh, I see.

Yes, well, when he gets back from lunch,
could you ask him to phone me?

Yes, thank you very much.

That's Led Crystal, that is.

Smarten yourself up for tomorrow. You'll
be waitressing.

Is that before or after I make the bed?

It won't be during, will it?

You're here to learn, Debbie.

Remember that.

You may officially be a chambermaid, but
I like to think of you as a hotel

management trainee.

Does that mean I get to be hotel
manager, then? It means you get to try a

everything.

It also means, more importantly, that
you've got prospects.

Now, go on, off you go.

And be careful.

Yes, Mr Crawford.

Thank you, Mr Crawford.

Good morning. Coaching Inn.

Harry Crawford, proprietor at your
service.

I want Ken Boone.

He's not here at the moment, but I could
take a message. It's a matter of a job.

I want something delivering.

Is it urgent?

Of course it's urgent.

Well, I know where he's gone. I mean,
you could phone him there if you want.

Right. Just a moment.

In the Ferndale Centre.

Mm -hmm.

No, no, no, I don't need the telephone
number. I'll catch up with him

you Right we'll talk to him

Hello? Go down.

Ken Boone.

Is that your name, is it?

Ken Boone.

He's deaf.

The man's deaf.

What do you think, Parrot? Deaf.

Let me ask you a question.

It ain't a crime to be Ken Boone yet.

All right, what do you want?

You've got something that belongs to us.

And we'd like it back.

A matter of a radio set you bought.

Well, you think you bought it.

Who are you?

The geezer who sold it to you. Well, it
wasn't his to sell.

Like my friend here said, we want it
back.

All right, just keep this out, OK?

I'll compliment.

Just so long as you're clear on one
thing.

You're working for us.

And we take our cut.

Every month.

Let me tell you something, son. I work
for myself.

I don't pay a slice to anybody.

Anyone gets on my back, they get a rough
ride.

Got it?

Thank you.

He didn't give you his name?

I didn't ask him.

It was a job. I thought you'd be
pleased.

Oh, yeah, delighted.

Harry, that is my blood, mate.

You should have a check -up.

I'll pass, not that.

Well, at least go to the police, Ken.

Yeah, and what am I going to tell them?
Three geezers in black leather trying to

wipe me out. Where's that going to get
me?

The fact is, Ken, it's a very rough
trade.

And knowing about bikes isn't enough.

Debbie, in the hotel business, we knock
before we enter a room.

There.

You should work for me.

Oh, yeah. Last time we tried that, you
nearly ended up in jail.

I was a key prosecution witness.

Just as well, wasn't it?

Thanks, Harry.

So you're going to carry on as if
nothing had happened?

Harry, you don't have to get involved.

No, I just have to sit next door to your
intergalactic communication centre

taking phone messages for you. Ken,
don't be obstinate.

You're out of your depth. Go in for
something safer.

Look, if it's the money you laid out
that's bothering you, I'll buy you out.

you won't, Harry.

No -one's going to drive me out of that
business.

Not a bunch of villains, not you,
nobody.

Harry, how could you do this? Not now,
Gwyneth. Please, please.

Room 15 on the third floor.

Portal, take your bag. No.

No, no, no, no, no, no. Not necessary.

I've got something to say.

Take your helmet off, Rocky.

I'm a biker.

Bikers have a code of honour.

They look after other bikers.

That guy could have been killed.

What guy?

Ken Boone?

Brakes don't just fail.

Even on my bike, brakes don't just fail.

What happened?

All I know is this ain't no ordinary
dispatch company.

There's a couple of jobs for you inside.

Take them when you're finished with the
day.

And try not to take all afternoon about
it.

Rocking.

Oi, it's so much damage.

You could say that.

Hiya. I'm Debbie Yeath. Well, you might
have to use one of the bathrooms again.

You didn't tell our misery guts, did
you?

It's just that, well, I live in a squat.
I've got nowhere to wash.

I know, you feel that?

You used to be old friends, didn't you?

Yeah, we shared a dorm together at Eton.

Same what in the fire brigade.

But just now he objects to my oily
present next to his spanking new hotel.

Mind you, he's got a point.

Yeah.

It won't always be like that.

I mean, once he starts expanding, he'll
have a fleet of limos.

You'll be an asset to him then.

I mean, you'll be inspecting the guests
before they park their bums on the car's

leather seats.

It'll be a while after I've got this
bike together.

Don't you mean if you get the bike
together?

Debbie!

How are you finding the hotel business?

Etty.

Yes, the creme de la creme of Birmingham
will be there.

Yes, the mayor himself has expressed
great interest in attending.

Well, no, he won't, but still... Harry?

Yes, if you feel that the diary will be
interested, then maybe you would pass me

over to it. Harry?

God knows what would have happened if
Watergate had broken in the Midlands.

Yes, all right, I'll hold on.

Yes, please.

I think I should draw your attention.

You do have... Quite an illustrious
guest, staying under your roof.

Oh, yes.

I hadn't noticed him as he signed in,
that's all.

Gwyneth, I'm desperate for a celebrity.

Mr. Emlyn Price -Jones, am he?

Oh, yeah.

Member for Carnarvon West for the last
20 years.

Moved the Price -Jones amends, then?

Oh, did he?

Sunday drinking.

Where is he now, then?

In the bar.

Will he do?

He'll have to.

Right, it's 253 feet, about 16 brake
horsepower at 6 ,500 RPM. OK?

It's there if you want it.

Let me think about it.

Thanks.

Now then, sir, what can I do you for?

Who's that then, Greasy?

Mr Boone.

BSA, A65, vertical twin, if I'm not
mistaken.

Well, this morning you wouldn't have
been.

Oh, dear me, Mr Boone.

Nothing gone awry, I trust.

Maybe half of it. I need some bits.

Well, now, why don't we start at the
front and work backwards?

One more time.

There you go, love.

Thanks, Mrs J.

I thought y 'all got a job.

I thought y 'all got a job.

Yeah, I am. Honey, I've got a lot of
things to think about, that's all.

Give you plenty of room, then.

Oh, it hurts, Mr Boone. It goes against
the grain.

Spitfire force and a lightning.

Yeah, but this is an emergency, Grovesy.

Even so, Mr Boone. How much do I owe
you?

What's that?

Uh, Norton Commando, about, uh, 1972, I
should think. Yeah, yeah, I know that.

Where's the geezer who owns it?

Rocky? Oh, he should be around
somewhere.

That is, he should be with Romany
Riders.

Not an altogether pleasant bunch.

No, I think I've come across them. Where
do they hang out?

Well, I imagine I should have an address
in the office. Or we could simply ask

Rocky. No, leave him where he is.

Listen, can I play this stuff with you
for a while? Can you lend me a pair of

wheels? Yeah, take mine, the Triumph.

Typical politician.

Oh, I'd love to.

If only I could.

Agricultural conference, first thing.

Harry, I'm sorry.

You did your best, goodness.

Er, how's the smorgasbord?

Yeah, erm... Morning Post.

Diary, please.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yes, well, that's par for the course.

Tell me, how long will the union meeting
go on for?

If we want him to work for us... He has
to be docile.

I mean, look at Flannery.

I tell you, if some sick bloody paddy
thinks he can double -cross us, we must

going soft.

Did you try to reason with him, Mickey?

He wasn't that soft. He wasn't, did you
learn that?

Well, how do you know you've convinced
him of anything?

One small operator rebels and it's the
beginning of the end.

There's no law that says we can run
franchises.

The law says the opposite.

We run them because we've got a knuckle.

And that means nobody works outside of
Birmingham unless they pay us to.

You still don't get violent without my
say -so.

Yeah, well, it's all right for you,
isn't it?

Sitting here.

Well, yes, it is, but it's...

The old story, Mickey.

You do as I say, or you walk out that
door and you don't come back, son.

We'll give him another chance.

We'll talk it over.

Explain the situation.

I'll come along with you.

I'll show you how it's done.

You're going to inherit this business
one day, Mickey.

I want to make sure you can run it.

Hello, boys.

Our own service.

No, that's not me.

Oh, well, way there, isn't it?

Yeah, OK.

It's about doing the thing I don't do
around here.

Watch your hands.

Are you trying to tell me you can't make
it?

You can?

Oh, that's marvellous.

Twelve o 'clock, then.

Westminster Road.

Yeah, I look forward to seeing you.

A gentleman of the press will be
present. We have publicity.

Excuse me.

What do you think you're doing here?

I just... We're within a stanch throw. A
solid old constabulary. They'll be here

in minutes, Linda.

I was told I could find Ken Boone.

Oh, you were, were you?

Well, you can just turn straight round
and tell the person who told you to

him alone. Now, I'm not afraid of you.
I'll have the law on you quicker than

that. Look, I've just got to tell him.
You tell him nothing. I saw the state of

him last time you people had a
conversation with him. Now, you shut

and your eyes around here once more and
I'll have you inside. You hear me?

Inside!

You fell over?

That's not unheard of.

Didn't I... Didn't I want something?

A bottle of whiskey?

I'll have someone send it up for you.

You stay right there. No, I... A bottle
of whiskey for

room 15.

Don't ask, I'm finished.

The lady at the job centre never said
it'd be like this.

What's that?

Are you giving me your marching orders?

Not exactly, but I'm looking for another
job.

You've got a job, haven't you?

Yeah, but I'm having my doubts about
being management trainee now.

Well, I'm having my doubts about being a
dispatch rider.

You're going to need someone to operate
that radio, aren't you?

Yeah, I know, but...

Well, you see, that'd be sound for me,
because electronics and all, I can do

that. I did a course on it, and I'm
great with bikes.

I haven't got any work for you, love. I
can't afford to pay you.

I could put this area up for you.

Look, it's not that I don't want to
employ you. Look, as a favour for

Think you want to go home?

You haven't seen where I live.

How's your head for heights?

Sam? That's the guy we're going to talk
into lying, is it?

I tell you, people like that, we've got
to be harder, not softer.

Those sort of men don't knuckle under.

Then you're just going to let him run
free?

You can convene the chapter, can't you,
Mickey?

Yeah? Well, convene it.

When did I last see you looking this
smart?

Probably when Dorian was around.

Not even then, mate.

Not even then.

Funny, isn't it, how both our exes ended
up in Spain?

No, I don't think it is, Ken.

I don't think it is.

Spain's the place you run off to, isn't
it?

England's the place where you stay and
fight it out.

Leading officer Crawford, smoky boon,
dashing round factory blazes, gas

going up.

Two -inch shrapnels zinging past our
ears.

We had it then, mate, and we've still
got it.

Give or take a lung.

No, Ken.

Up there.

Doggedness, perseverance, obstinacy, if
you like.

You were right yesterday, mate. Nobody
tells you what to do, nor me either.

It may not be fashionable to say so,
Ken, but that's the spirit that made

Britain great.

Oh, leave out the rhetoric, Harry.

It's me you're talking to, mate, not the
press.

What I mean, Ken, is that we're at the
forefront of a new era.

The economic revival's underway, and
we're at the front of it.

The new Britain's camp, you and me.

Growth is the watchword. Ever onward,
ever upward.

Yeah, well, do you think I'm going to
turn my water on now the economic

revival's underway?

Oh, I forgot to tell you, with all the
fuss.

One of them turned up yesterday.

One of who?

Those blokes who were trying to run you
out of business. Big fella. Black

leathers. Smoked visor.

Oh, yeah. Sounds familiar.

I saw him off. Did you?

No problem.

Good man, Harry.

They're on their way.

Now, Mickey, they understand how far I
want them to go, huh?

Don't be silly, Dan.

The movie coming up, or what?

No, no, no, no, no. I want the organizer
of the Carlisle Dairy Conference,

please.

No.

Price Jones.

Price Jones.

No.

No.

No,

there's no chance I'm afraid, no.

I had an effort.

Not turned up for work?

Oh, that's marvellous.

That's today's youth, that is. Debbie,
absent.

Well, she's sick. Not half as sick as
me.

I'm understaffed as it is, Ken, and this
is my big day. Oh, don't panic, Harry.

I'll help you.

No, I couldn't ask you. Will you?

Price Jones, what's he doing here?

I thought he was checking out early.

Mr Price Jones?

Could I make one final entreaty, do you
think?

It's now only an hour from the
reception.

Now, I know you're on your way to
Carlisle, but if you could just stay to

our delightful buffet.

I was on my way to Carlisle. Not
anymore.

Now, I realise you're a very busy man,
but as this is our public opening, I

wondered if you might like to say a few
words.

I don't mean this.

Oh, that's smashing, Mr Price Jones.

I mean, it's not every day that a new
hotel's opened, is it?

Hey, Gary's after your blood, you know.
You're over three hours late.

Look, I'll work for nothing.

Huh? Oh, I hate it over there.

I'm wasting me time.

And Mr Crawford.

You're going to need someone in the long
run.

Might as well be me.

Look, you're better off over there, kid.

Oh, no way.

Debbie do this, Debbie do that, all the
frigging time.

If I wanted to be a slave, I'd stay at
home.

No, I've made me mind up.

Our misery guts.

Hey, wait a minute.

How about 30 quid a week?

Plus your bus fare.

How's that?

Where are you going?

I'm going to slum my nose in our
Crawford. It's not quite the right

Look, just leave that out.

I'll deal with him.

OK.

Where do you want the volleyball, Smith?

Just there, look, please.

Still smells of paint in here.

Might just as well have served this in
paint tins. Oh, sorry,

Gwyneth. Oh, I'm just nervous.

No, it's perfect.

Perfect.

Mr. Murray.

Chairs. Yeah, down the hatch. No,
chairs. Ken, could you set them up,

mate? Right, yeah.

Look, it's about Debbie.

Is she in? No, not exactly. Well, when
she does arrive, she's fired, I can tell

you that.

Oh, Debbie.

Wired, eh?

That's right.

So what is this

coat for me?

At the hotel.

Did we turn it over?

Oh, Nicky.

Whatever gets in your way.

Of course it wasn't in

anything like this shape when I took it
over.

It's had a complete refit. And you
capitalised the whole project yourself?

Yes.

Well, pretty much.

90%. More wine, gentlemen.

Oh, yes, and do try our buffet. I think
you'll find it representative of the

standard of cuisine I shall be
establishing here.

Here comes your star, Tony.

Oh, Mr Price, Jones.

Please, let me get you something.

Oh, I see you're already provided for.

You've given up work now.

We'll never get you out of here.

I think they're about ready for you now,
Mr

Price -Jones.

Where do you want me to go?

This way, sir. This way, please.

Ken, would you clear the podium, please?

There will be full press coverage, of
course.

Well, I don't see many tickets in
Atbans, Harry.

Well, where the bloody hell are they?

Morning Post.

There you go.

Sorry. On the phone.

I'll put it through to your office.
Ladies and gentlemen, can I have your

attention, please?

Can I ask a little quiet?

Quiet, please!

But yesterday you said you'd send
someone.

I don't understand.

Oh, the diary reporter's sick.

Well, how many have you got?

Oh, I can see that's a 100 % disaster,
then.

You're not pulling him out of there this
side of Christmas.

Yes, well, the space on your page is
nothing to the ones in my hotel room.

I was depending on that publicity.

And now what am I supposed to do?

No wonder they didn't want to hold the
Olympic Games here. It's all I can say.

Just a minute.

Yes,

listen. Listen, I've just had an idea
that could solve both our problems.

What if I was to send along some
publicity photos?

Could you slot them in?

Revolt, Dutch and Fraser.

They are the aims in which this party
believes.

And this party believes, the country
believes.

Sir, I think you will agree with me that
the spirit that has been shown here

in the embodiment of Mr... of Mr...

It's exactly the kind of enterprise,
exactly the sort of get up, get

up and go that is putting this nation
back on its feet again.

The deadline's 4 .30.

All right, no problem.

We'll get going. All right, Harry, all
right.

Oh, God, now what's happened?

What are you doing here?

Waiting.

I beg your... Yeah, well, never mind.
Look, get on to Ken.

Tell him if he gets the film there in
half an hour we're in.

Otherwise we're drunk.

Thing is, Mr Crawford, I like to think
of myself as a bit of a trainee at the

moment.

Well?

I'm doing me best.

Debbie, take my advice.

Never fall back on that one.

It's results that matter in this life.

Well, now.

You're going to get what's coming to
you, my friend.

And believe you me, it ain't a slap on
the wrist.

Don't try and look round.

I mean, they'll keep their curtains well
closed round here.

Milfarm Estate, get a place round here,
quick! Leave it to me!

Olivia!

He hasn't stopped.

Is that your name, Rocky?

Uh -huh.

Harry, listen, small earthquake in
Wolverhampton, that's the problem.

I can't hear you. What did you say?

Now, the news is you're in. You've got
half the diary paid to keep the front

doors open, ready for the rush.

Have you had a work?

Uh -huh. Not anymore?

Oh, great.

Come on, move it.

Texas Rangers, Texas toughest men.

The Texas Rangers, there they ride
again.

They ride in thunder.

They ride in rain.

Texas Rangers, Texas toughest men.

Texas Rangers, there they ride again.
