BOOMBAAA

I don't know.

Oh, hello. I need an ambulance for 45 Alex Road. No, no, no, 46.

No, no, it's next door. 46.

There's an old lady there, Miss Crawford. She's had a fall. She's had a

No, I don't think anything's broken. I don't know. But it's been almost 24

hours. Sam, tell them to... No.

No, I'm sorry.

Oh, hold on a minute.

They're asking whether I've got a car.

What for?

Yes, I have.

But I don't think you understand.

We're having a lot of difficulties.

Yes,

I see.

Thank you very much.

It won't come.

£400 for a couple of days' work.

It's immoral.

Well, you want to shop around.

I have shopped around.

You're just coming around five.

I don't know what the world's coming to, Ken.

I mean, I'd do it myself if I had the time.

Yeah, well, don't look at me.

You are looking at me.

Ken. No, Harry, I'm not going up any more ladders. I've got a business to

Yes, and a rent -free office on my property.

Our property? I own a bit of this mouldy neat, remember?

Yes, well, it's your bit that's doing the mouldering. Who says?

Now, look, Ken, I mean, the thing is, I mean, it's in both our interests, isn't

it? I mean, you've got to respect property.

I've already got damp in number 11. Now, if we let it go on, it'll only get

worse. I'll pay him the 400.

Not getting the thingies.

I know you're busy, but what about Rocky? Well, he's busy too.

Yes, well, what about a bit of overtime, eh? I mean, I could slip you a bit of

something on the side.

How much?

Oh, saved by the bleep, eh?

Yes, Harry Crawford speaking.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes, Mr Green, thank you.

Yes, thank you very much for ringing.

Yes, I'll go straight round there.

You all right, mate?

It's my aunt.

Old Nell.

She'll be taken into hospital.

She was lying there all night. Can't... I mean, the thing is, if I'd just given

her a call or something... Oh, I see. So it's all your fault, then.

Well, I mean, who else is there?

I mean, she hasn't got anybody else. She's never married or anything.

Well, you do your bit.

I can see her once a week or once a fortnight sometimes.

I should be all right now, won't she?

Leave it to the NHS.

So what's going on here, then?

Well, it looks like a protest of some sort.

What do you reckon?

Something to do with hospital catering?

Yeah, all the cleaners.

I don't know, Kenny, it never used to be like this.

People go out with banners now at the drop of a hat.

Yeah, well, Harry, it's called freedom of speech.

You know.

Yes, well, I hope they've left it somewhere to park.

I'll wait for you, Harry.

If you wouldn't mind, mate. Take your time.

Thanks.

Mr Crawford?

Mr Crawford?

Oh, Harry, please.

How is she?

There's no news yet.

You know, I really feel badly about this.

Maggie pops in and sees your aunt most days, usually, but we took a long

weekend, you see. I'm really so sorry. No, it's my fault.

No, I've been so tied up with my aunt's silly affairs.

We drove her here about an hour ago.

You drove her? You should have called for an ambulance.

Well, we did, but they wouldn't come.

Why not?

They're all on strike.

Started this morning.

Well, they said there was a possibility in the paper, but we never... Oh, that's

smashing, that is.

I mean, my heart's aching for you. Is that what it's supposed to do?

I'm sure she... Get on the bus. She's going to be all right.

There was nothing broken, but she was very confused.

It was a shock, you see. Yes, well, I'm pretty shocked myself.

Are you telling me that they'd have left her there?

Well, they did ask us.

Oh, very nice of them, I'll show her.

Mr Crawford?

Crawford's sleeping now. You can see her if you like.

How is she?

Well, there's nothing broken, if that's what you mean. But she may have had a

mild stroke.

We can't be sure until the neurologist had a look at her.

And where's the new neurologist?

He's at home.

On strike?

No, Mr Crawford. He's just come off shift.

He'll be here first thing in the morning.

We'll be on our way, then.

Oh, yes, yes.

Thanks very much. Give us a call if there's anything we can do.

I'll do that.

I'll show you to the ward.

Texas Rangers.

Yes?

Yeah, Mr. Lombard.

Yeah, that's Oldbury House.

Third floor.

Right. It'll be about 15 minutes. Is that all right?

Great. Thanks very much. Bye.

Rocky?

Rocky?

Rocky?

Are you going to have Deb, will you? Have you got a minute?

For where?

You know, it's that thing you get paid for. I've been out twice a day already.

Shall I phone them back, shall I? I'm awful, sorry.

He's been out twice a day already.

Needs a week to recuperate. Well, why don't you ask Ken to go?

Why don't you ask him yourself?

Ask me what?

Oh, Mr Boone, bit of a problem here. Unrest on the shop floor.

Oh, yeah?

I think the father of the chapel would like a word.

Well, would someone mind explaining?

Nothing, Ken.

Mad.

He seems to think he's overweight.

Overpaid, all right.

We busy then?

Yeah, the food hasn't stopped all week.

I reckon we should get some new riders in, you know. No, no, we just stick with

the ones we've got on the road, OK?

You should be pleased.

Why? Well, we're busy, aren't we? Count ourselves lucky.

The coaching in please and 30 miles an hour is quite fast enough.

84 years old and they wouldn't send an ambulance.

Yeah, the strike. Yes, the strike.

What's the world coming to, Ken, when the unions can use a crippled old woman

bump up their pay packets?

Oh, come on, Harry.

Well, it's the truth, isn't it?

Oh, he's sorry, love. He's just... Harry, it's like back when the

firemen came out. We were there. We didn't like it any more than these

That was different, Ken.

Well, no, it wasn't a black and white case either.

Forks on the left. Janet.

Look, Ken, I don't want to talk about it. What do you want to talk to me

Come on, go on.

Oh, yes, there was something I wanted to ask you.

The favour?

No, the favour.

Surprise, surprise.

I'm just asking you to keep an eye

on things, Ken.

Because I'll be down at the hospital, Master, today.

Well, what's wrong with Glynnis?

Glynnis? Clintus couldn't organise her own life, let alone run a hotel.

Look, I'm sorry, mate, but honestly, I've got... Just for the afternoon,

I mean, that's all I'm asking. Look, I've got it all written down here.

I need to take the weight off my mind, knowing there was somebody here I could

trust. And what happens if something goes wrong? Nothing will go wrong, Ken.

Nothing will go wrong. Nothing ever goes wrong here.

You don't have to worry about your boy's O -levels. He'll come through with

flying colours.

I would take my word for it. It'll be a doddle.

A doddle.

The name is Nicholls. Phyllis Nicholls.

Daying to week.

Phyllis Nicholls?

I know that name.

You're the actress, aren't you?

No.

I shall be taking all my meals in the hotel. I follow a strict vegetarian

You do have a vegetarian facility.

I'll have a word with the chef.

No eggs, no fish, no dairy products.

I also drink only herbal tea. I have brought my own.

There is a kettle in the room, Miss Nicholl. I deplore tea bags.

I need to be woken at seven sharp.

I must have a lot of work to do. I'll make a note.

Room 12, Derek.

Derek! Derek!

Oh, excuse me.

All right.

Yes.

Yes, I'm fine.

Thank you.

What was all that about?

It isn't like being touched.

Doesn't seem to like anything much.

Who is she?

Feliz Nego.

That's the yellow line.

That's the yellow line.

What?

You're on the yellow line.

Yeah, well, I'm only going to be a minute.

I've got to pick something up. What is on the tenth floor?

I'll give you points and I'll be back.

All right, you know how you do.

I think it was something to do with Mike finishing all this.

Anyway, she started crying all over the place. It was so embarrassing.

Got to go. I'll speak to you later. Bye.

Uh, Texas Rangers?

Said they had got to pick something up.

Oh.

Yeah, um, have you got a package for me?

And I was hoping you might have a package for me.

I'm talking about the sort of package that comes in leather and unzips.

Oh.

Oh, come on, love.

I've got a lot of things to pick up today, you know.

Just... Sign it in there.

I finish at 5 .30.

Romilly Street.

Have you got an I to Z?

Romeline.

Oh, no!

My bike!

My bike was there!

Oh, no!

Oh, God!

Get off me!

Excuse me, nurse.

Yeah? I'm looking for a Miss Crawford.

She was in that bed.

I'm sorry, I've just come on day shift.

Left past the wood sifter.

Making a point of her?

She was around.

Look, my auntie was here yesterday. Why isn't she here now?

I'm afraid you'll have to ask the ward sister.

Doctor Hamill?

You don't remember me.

Fred. Crawford, Harry Crawford. My aunt was admitted here last night. Oh, yes, I

remember. Well, I've come to visit her, but nobody seems to know where she is.

I saw her this morning.

Um, in Bryden Ward. I'm going that way. I'll take you there. Thank you.

Glynis, where are you going?

Well, it's Friday afternoon, Mr Boone. I know it's Friday afternoon.

Well, I always see my acupuncturist on Friday.

Acupuncture? For my back.

Oh, he's absolutely marvellous. After half an hour with one of his needles, I

feel like a new woman. Listen, love, can't you arrange it for another day? I

mean, Harry's left me here. I can't cope on my own.

Oh, I'm sorry, Mr Boone, but I did tell Mr Crawford, and I can't miss my

appointment. Well, he's going to look after the reception.

He should have told you.

I've got to go. I'll miss my bath. Otherwise, no.

Look, just five minutes.

Five minutes.

Two? I'm surprised nobody told you.

There must have been a flip -up in the administration.

Oh, you lose patience quite often, do you? Well, not permanently.

How is she?

Well, I'm afraid she did have a mild stroke, Mr Crawford.

She's comfortable now, but I think she's going to be with us for some time.

Oh, if only we could have got her an oxygen support sooner.

Well, they carry oxygen in ambulances, don't they?

Yes, I'm afraid they do.

Yes, well, I hope they're pleased with themselves, that's all I can say. I hope

they get their 6%. It's not quite as simple as that, Mr Crawford.

Oh, now, don't tell me you're in sympathy with them. As a matter of fact,

Oh, well, smash in.

I mean, you could all go and strike together.

Not that anybody will notice.

I mean, look at this place.

It's a shambles.

Yes, it is.

We're overworked and understaffed.

Look, Mr Crawford, I've been on an 11 -hour shift.

I'm dog -tired and I've still got patients to see.

I'll tell you this.

If I were to run my hotel the way you run this hospital, I'd be closing it

Oh, but it's all right for you, I suppose. You people are used to it.

By that, do you mean doctors?

Or Indians, Mr Crawford?

Dr Hamill, I didn't...

All right, all right.

Hello? Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Ah, OK.

Debbie?

What are you doing here?

Haven't we got any work on?

The bike's been nicked.

What? He left it outside Albury House.

With the keys in it and the spare lid on the seat.

That's marvellous.

Did you call the police?

I told her not to.

Why?

Something else.

Like what, for example?

Insurance.

Insurance?

A road tax.

Are you telling me you've been riding around on that bloody bike with no tax

insurance? What are you trying to do to me? Put me out of business? It was only

for a couple of weeks, Ken. They both went out at the same time. I was going

get him, but...

I was waiting till the end of the month.

Yeah, so now you've got no bike and you can't even claim.

Oh, dear, oh, dear.

What you've got to do is go round the police station in your lunch hour.

If you don't report a theft, that's a crime in itself.

But what about the insurance?

That's your problem, son.

Oh, I don't believe it.

I come over here to explain to you I've got to take over the hotel for the

afternoon for Harry.

It's the busiest we've ever been.

I can't be around and you're going nowhere.

We could always get some freelance riders in.

Yeah, we can have two.

What about me?

Oh, don't you worry, Rocky.

I'll find something for you to do.

Oh, God.

If I get my hands on that geezer and hit your bike, I'll bloody strangle him.

Where did you get that?

A mate lent it me. Who?

A mate.

You prat, you've nicked it, haven't you?

Leave off, Steve. I just told you I've borrowed it. Then why are you changing

the plate?

Eh?

Oh, I've got no touch.

That's why me mate lent it me.

I wouldn't have to bother, would I, if he lent me one of yours?

What, lend you a bike?

Who do you think I am?

Me big brother, aren't you?

Yeah, but they're not mine. I mend them, I don't lend them. I'm not hurt or

something.

Anyway, changing the place won't do any good. It's a different year.

Who's going to look that close?

Where did you get it, Nick?

I just told you. You just told me a bloody lie.

I'm not asking you to believe me.

Anyway, what if I did nick it? What are you going to do about it? Go to Mum?

Go to the police?

It's only for one day.

Just for the rally.

I'll put it back on Sunday. You're telling me you stole the bike, that you

out and nicked it?

It wasn't like that. I didn't... You're bloody irresponsible, Nick.

If I wasn't your brother, I'd chop you.

What am I supposed to do now?

Do you want me to go?

No.

But I want that bike back by Sunday.

Otherwise, I am going to the police.

Right, OK.

We'll be out of here by Sunday.

Just get off me back, will you?

Derek?

Derek?

Texas, Ray.

Coaching in.

No,

no, no, I'm not the owner. I'm standing in for Mr Crawford.

Yeah.

Gracie Brothers.

Oh, that's the building contractors, isn't it? No, he's not interested.

Well, that's a bit strong, you tell him.

So, can I help you?

You're not the owner.

No. Oh, that's right, I'm not.

I heard you say so on the phone.

You want to see the manager?

No.

What do you want?

Well, I was just wondering, is Phyllis Nicholls staying here?

Yeah, that's right, but she's not to be disturbed.

Oh, no, no, I don't want to see her.

I just want to give her this.

Umbrella? I don't think she'd be needing that, just the weather.

That's, um, it's hers, is it?

Uh, no.

Well, um, who's is it, then?

My nephew.

He's lost it?

No.

I've lost him.

Lost him?

He's dead.

Oh, I see, and he's, um... Yeah, he's left Mrs Nichols his umbrella.

No.

I did.

My name and address is on the label.

Harold Beamish.

Yeah, all right, mate.

I'll see she gets it.

You will see she gets it.

I'm really glad that's over, Deb.

You didn't look any guiltier in there.

They were going to lock you up, weren't they?

I didn't look guilty, did I? Oh, I'm only winding you up.

What did you tell them about the insurance?

Oh, I told them I lost the phone.

Yeah, but they're going to want to see it, aren't they?

Yeah.

They're souped to find the bike, aren't they?

Oh.

Come on.

Look, I'm really sorry, but Miss Nicholls has not seen anybody.

Oh, there is she then.

She's gone out.

If you want to leave anything with her, you can leave it in the reception.

Now, come on, just give me a minute. I've got to clear the place first.

There, there.

Right, Derek, prepare yourself for the environment.

There you are. I thought I knew her. Who?

She's Nicole.

Psychic star.

Autobiography. She's got the hotel in here and all.

She's a psychic.

Oh, she's that clairvoyant. The one who's always helping the police and all

that. Is she in her room?

No, she's in the conservatory.

Right, you deal with this lot.

Nicol, I'm sorry to barge in, but it looks like I've got your fan club

I don't want to be disturbed.

Well, they brought all kinds of stuff.

Tell them to take it with them.

I'm here to work.

Yes, I know the autobiography. Well, I'm here to run the hotel and they're not

making things easier.

So I've left and they'll go.

Right, I'll deal with it.

Wait.

One minute.

Yes?

Don't ride your motorbike.

What?

Don't ride your motorbike.

Mr Boone.

It is Ken Boone.

Isn't it?

Yes, it is.

Stay off it, Mr. Boone.

When you gave me my key, our hands touched.

So?

That's how I work, through physical contact.

That's why those people are here.

That's why they brought things.

I don't understand.

When our hands touched, I saw things.

They were confused at first.

They often are.

I saw a crash.

A motorbike crash.

I saw blood.

A great deal of blood.

And then I saw you on an operating table in

a hospital.

And finally I saw a policeman.

He was walking towards the hotel.

And I know he wasn't bringing good news.

I'm not in the business to scare people, Mr. Boone.

And it doesn't matter if you believe me.

But stay off your bike.

At least for a while.

I saw it.

And it will happen.

Dr Hamill.

Look, I want to apologise for what I said before.

It's unforgivable.

No offence taken.

No, you see, I mean, when I saw that empty bed this morning and what with

seeming to know where she'd been taken and that, I know that's no excuse, mind,

but I just thought for a second that maybe she'd, you know... How is Miss

Crawford? Oh, the nurse says she'll be fine.

Oh. That's good.

Well, you look as though you could use a bit of bed yourself.

Well, you were right about one thing, Mr Crawford.

It is chaos here.

Organised chaos.

I suppose that's why, broadly speaking, I'm in sympathy with the ambulance men.

Oh, I don't know.

I can't see that strikes are ever the answer.

The ambulance drivers didn't make that decision easily, Mr Crawford.

But somebody had to do something.

Yes, and in the meantime, we were the victims.

Me and my poor old auntie for two.

And me for a third.

Ambulances don't just deliver patients, you know.

Drugs, plasma, equipment.

Right now, we're having to use taxis, dispatch riders, just about anything we

can get our hands on.

Yeah.

Yes, well, I'll let you get on.

Mr Crawford.

Yeah?

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to spout on it to you.

Not to worry.

Hey, you mentioned dispatch riders.

A friend of mine runs his own firm.

It's called the Texas Rangers.

Don't let that put you off.

Yes, I mean, give me a call any time if you want somebody round.

No charge.

Thank you, Mr Crawford.

Thanks very much.

Certainly. Bye.

Oh, nice one, Ken. You're just in time.

What for?

Well, that was Bolton advertising.

You know, the pink spectacle brigade by the bull rings.

They've got some presentation slides for a posh client.

It's dead urgent.

Oh. You've been wanting to get in the advertising for months.

What about all those freelance people we hired?

Beattie, Tommy and Hopalong, they're already out.

By the time I get to someone else, it'll be too late.

I was supposed to be looking after the hotel.

Well, what time did Harry say he'd be back?

Four.

Oh, it's five -two now.

Five minutes isn't going to kill you.

I mean, if you knock this back, they're not going to come back.

Yeah, you're right. I'll go.

Harry,

they missed me by an inch.

Another inch, you'd be looking for another partner.

Yeah, well, it's lucky nobody was hurt.

Well, in case you're in the sports car, he wasn't too happy about being dug out

of a ton of mixed salad, but that's about it.

You say she saw this?

Honestly, mate, straight up.

The crash, the hospital, the operating table, I mean, everything.

But it hasn't happened, has it, Ken? I mean, you weren't injured. You were just

bruised. Yeah, yeah, I know, I know. But that's what worries me. I mean, um...

Well, I don't know. I mean, it may be a sort of hors d 'oeuvre. There might be

something else around the corner.

You don't believe this.

Well, what would you do?

But it's all just publicity, Ken.

All these psychic what -have -yous are all the same. You'll probably end up in

her autobiography.

As long as she doesn't put it under...

Road accidents, my greatest successes.

Hey, you are worried, aren't you?

Yeah, I'm a bit.

Oh, to hell with it, Lewis.

What do you do with all that gear, eh?

The umbrellas, alligators, all the safari stuff?

I've got Derek to put it somewhere out the way.

How's it going, then?

Good.

I told you I'd find you something to do, didn't I?

Well, I haven't got head for nights, mate.

Well, don't look down.

I've second thoughts.

You'd better keep an eye on that ladder. We don't want anyone nicking it, do we?

Very funny.

Well, get stuck in, Rocky.

And if we don't find your bike, you'll have to start on the drains next.

Where have you been?

Just around the block, getting the feel of it.

You've got a lot of power there.

Please, Kate, once you're used to it. Yeah, but you're not used to it. Don't

worry.

When are you off then?

I've got to be there at six.

What are you doing here?

Well, I was just wondering.

Couldn't see your way to lending me a tenner, could you?

I'll pay you back next week.

Oh, thanks, Steve, mate. Just do me a favour and get yourself a job, will you?

And I don't want to see that bike again.

Hey! Have a good time, OK?

Yeah. See you.

You finished then, Deb?

Yeah, I'm off.

It's been the busiest day we've ever had, Deb.

Are you all right?

Yeah, yeah, thanks.

Hey, not bad.

In fact, I might just buy you a drink.

Yes, I deserve one.

Oh, we'll pick up Rocky on the way.

If it wasn't me, it was the owner.

Then can I speak to the owner?

Well, he's not here at the moment.

Well, can you find him?

Yes, all right, Derek.

Yes, Mrs Nicholls, Harry Crawford here.

I'd like a word with you in my room, immediately.

If you could just give me a few... They must be in for an argument, don't you

think?

Yes, Mrs Nicholls.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to check out early.

Something wrong with the room?

It was perfectly all right until I came back this afternoon.

And now I find it looks like an Oxfam shop.

Yes, it does bear a certain resemblance.

It's quite impossible to work.

Yes, I've heard about your work, Mrs Nicholls.

Your friend?

Ken.

He told me what you told him.

And you don't approve?

I don't know.

I think the future's private.

You know what I mean?

I've got somebody in hospital at the moment and I'd like to be sure she's

to be all right.

But I wouldn't ask you.

I just don't think it's our place to know.

I had to tell him, Mr Crawford.

You see, I'm never wrong.

Yeah.

I'll have the porter bring down your cases.

I saw blood.

A great deal of blood.

And finally, I saw a policeman.

And I know he wasn't bringing good news.

Oh, Mr Crawford.

This is Dr. Hamill here.

Yes, Dr. Hamill. Yes, Harry Crawford here.

You were telling me about your friend who has a dispatch service.

Yes, Texas Rangers, that's right.

I wonder if we can take you up on your offer.

We need a serum from the Western Laboratories.

Well, it is very urgent.

Western Laboratories?

Highfield Road?

Yes. I'll be waiting here for it.

Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Crawford.

Here you go.

Here's to a good day.

Close shave and all.

Ken. Harry, come and join us, mate. Have you had a drink? I haven't had time

yet. Good.

On your bike. What? There's some serum or something to go from Western

Laboratories to St Stephen's Hospital for the attention of Dr Hamill. Harry.

Ken, it's an emergency. There's an ambulance strike, remember?

Yeah, I know, but I'm... Hey, it's not Phyllis Nichols, is it?

No, it's not.

Look, she saw an accident. You had an accident. So you've got nothing to worry

about. You've got Phyllis Nichols staying here.

Who's Phyllis Nichols?

Look, if you don't want to go, let Rocky have your bike. Oh, not let him get on

White Lightning.

I'll go to the hospital, and don't you be surprised if they keep me in.

Have you really got Phyllis Nichols staying in the hotel, Mr Crawford? Who

she? She's that clairvoyant. You know, finds things that disappear.

Maybe I could ask her about me bike.

Texas Ranger.

Texas Ranger.

You took it, Simon.

Well, I didn't exactly push it. Well, you're going to have to push it from

Why? That stuff has only got a short life once it's out of the fridge.

How short?

Put your foot down on whatever it is you do on that thing.

Okay.

Yeah.

Mr.

Boone. Dr. Hamill.

Thank you.

Nurse, make sure this gets to Dr.

Bear in Reno.

I made it. I actually made it.

really that bad, Mr Boone?

No, no, no. You wouldn't understand.

Well, since you're here, I wonder if I can ask you something.

Hmm? Do you happen to know your blood group, Mr Boone?

You see, we're having slight problems with donors at the moment.

Yeah, I passed over an ambulance on the way in. Nothing to do with that, is it?

Well, it could be. They're still handling emergencies.

There's been a crash.

We've got a call out for donors, but since you're here... Yeah, sure, sure.

Have you got 20 minutes to spare?

Yeah, I've always got 20 minutes to spare for a pint.

When's he coming out?

Oh, I'm afraid he's going to be in there for quite a while yet.

Well, I think if those ambulance men hadn't come out on strike... Oh,

Yes, well, I'm not sure about that anymore.

Anyway, I see on the news tonight that they're thinking of calling it off

tomorrow. So maybe their hearts weren't really in it in the first place anyway.

More tea? No, thank you, Margaret. No, I'd best be off. Yeah, all right. OK.

Bye.

Sam, thanks.

Thanks for everything.

Cheers. Be safe.

If I were you, I'd find yourself employment in a different hotel.

And you looked into the future, then.

You know, of the hotel.

Future.

As far as I can see, this hotel hasn't got one.

And this won't work.

You know, I was in the fire brigade for 15 years. We often had to give blood.

They always said, this won't hurt.

And it always did.

If you keep selling, you're a good boy. Get a cup of tea.

What's this all about, then, eh? Why the panic?

Some kid. He's going to need major surgery, I'm afraid.

Got smashed up on a bike.

Sounds grim.

And the bike was nicked.

Morning, Ken.

How's it going?

Nearly finished now.

Mr Crawford's dead pleased.

Says he'll give me 50 quid.

50 quid. Oh, Harry.

I ought to dock that money, you know, off your wages of trouble you cause me.

Yeah, sorry, Ken.

Anyway, the good news is your bike's been found.

You found it?

It's in the nick, in the pound.

Is it?

Yeah, but it's in a better condition than the geezer who nicked it, I tell

You're going to need that 50 quid. Well, when can I pick it up? This afternoon.

Oh, wicked!

And can I take the time off? Yeah, of course you can, you silly sod.

Great!

Hey, and next time, don't leave the keys in the ignition.

Right.

Oh, what's this, then?

Find a new hotel, are we? No, no.

It's an old people's home. It's nice, isn't it?

More luxurious than your place.

Are you going to send Nell there?

Oh, not send, no.

She's looking forward to it.

Great.

Anyway, what are you after? If it's about Rocky? No.

I wanted to ask you about that woman, Phyllis Nicholls. Is she still here?

No, she left before you got back from the hospital.

Hey, how's that boy, by the way? Oh, he'll pull through.

Funny, really.

I swear I'd strangle him if I ever got my hands on him, and then I'd end up

giving him a pint of my blood.

That's what I was going to talk to her about.

Morning, Glynnis.

Morning, Mr Crawford.

Excuse me.

Got a taxi, eh?

How's the old acupuncture going? All right?

Look, I know Clairvoyant's second sight is a load of old crystal balls, but what

she said came true, more or less.

Well, yes, you had your crash. Yeah, and she said she saw blood. I gave blood.

Oh, come on, Ken. No, wait a minute. She said I'd end up on an operating table.

I did, with a tube stuck in my arm. That wasn't an operating table.

Well, it looked like one.

No, it's just a lot of coincidences, Ken.

Anyway, what was the last thing she said?

About a policeman coming up to the hotel.

A bearer of bad news.

What can I do for you, mate?

Yes, sir.

I'm looking for Mr Richard Cassidy.

Rocky? What's he done now?

There seems to be some quite irregularity with his motorbike

I think you'll find him round the corner, up a ladder, the other side.

I think you might find the cheques in the post.

Yes, sir.

That's usually what's happened.

That was the policeman. She said the police won't bring bad news.

Rocky won't be too happy with the tragedy for Rocky.

This is the first chapter in her autobiography.

Motorbike insurance.

My one success.

Put that crippled bull on time.

Now, now, she overdosed on the herbal tea.

But she did say the police won't bring bad news.

Texas Rangers, Texas toughest men.

The Texas Rangers, there they ride again.

They ride in thunder, they ride in rain.

It makes one wonder if they feel no pain.

They never falter. They never fail.

They hang their halter on a rusted nail.

Texas Rangers, Texas toughest men.

Texas Rangers, there they ride again.
