Used all my options, worked off my dues.

Laid all the cards, now there's nothing to lose.

Don't want tomorrow to be like today.

That's why I'm breaking away.

Not trying to run, not trying to hide.

What can I win if I'm losing my pride?

Only tomorrow.

like today, why I'm breaking away.

No, I should know about it. I'm the one to try, you know. I see.

You see, recently I've been reading a lot about alternative medicines, you

Like, you know, naturopathic cures, that kind of thing. See, the short comment

of orthodox medicines, ointments and so on, is that they only suppress the

problem, they don't eliminate the toxins which are the root cause.

That's a very interesting way.

You see, that's the fundamental difference between natural cures and

dispensed by the medical profession.

Not doing that for real.

Hey Dad, Dad, I've got the book if you want to... Nah, then you die, come on.

Nah, nah.

Hey

mate, the

party's over here!

Let's get the toad back up! Come on, we'll hold you! Listen mate!

How can I keep this stamp?

I bet it'll be rare one day.

Oh, he's bashed in a penny bag. I expected well.

No, sorry, Arabia.

Oh, this letter's from my cousin, Dudley.

He's working there on the pipeline.

Good crack there, Arabia.

Oh, but you see, your social life's severely curtailed, you see. There's

to do but play drafts or kick a ball around.

It's too hot to kick a ball.

Oh, any meal for me, then?

Cheers, mate.

Cheers, mate.

What's the matter with you, Oz?

Didn't expect no news as good news as far as I'm concerned.

I've got a letter from my cousin, Neville.

He's working in Saudi Arabia.

Oh, yeah?

Oh, lots of money, like, but nothing to do.

I see the regime's very strict there, you see. You can't even drink.

Oh, I read about that somewhere.

You can't even drink.

Oh, it's against their religion.

I know, but your cousin's English, isn't he? Where he's Birmingham, that's near

enough to see him.

It's no different, sir. He's still got to abide by the rules of the regime.

That's why booze is verboten.

Oh, it's against their beliefs or something.

Oh, well, I wouldn't lie to her. Well, it's, you know, it's a public flogging

least. Never. No, it's right there. It's a one -month fact.

What, one light ale and you get flogged? In a marketplace.

I expect a Newcastle Brown's life imprisonment.

No, but I mean, Barry's cousin's British. He's like us over here with the

addicts. I mean, without us, where are they?

You still got your boy by the size of that? Ah, bollocks. I mean, if we broke

the law over here, we wouldn't be subject to the addicts' rules, would we?

course we are. I mean, it's their country, isn't it? Their laws and that.

No, I'm just saying, I mean, it doesn't give them the right to flog us in

marketplaces.

all edgy again.

I don't know what she imagines I get up to around here, lad.

Obviously torturing herself with fantasies of my dissolute life.

Tell you what, send her a polar rider, this jumper. That'll reassure her.

I mean, when she sees the crack I'm sending home, she must realise there's

precious little left for me to enjoy a lavish lifestyle.

She's lonely, Nev. You know, I mean, it's the worst time. Been a few weeks

Ah, awful.

I'll miss her, God knows, and home.

Well, I'm going back for the weekend.

I'll drop in. You're late.

Are you?

I have to.

See the solicitor.

Sort things out.

Oh, the divorce is going through, is it?

Aye. Looks like it's part of the shouting.

Or in her case, the cheering.

Oh, how are you, man? Den, I don't reckon your Vera's any happier about

divorce than you are.

Aye, who knows?

Look, I'm just going to go in the Cabo's office, check the flight time.

Maybe I'll come with you.

All right, boy, all right, now I'm done.

It's a bastard miracle I wasn't. What's the most kind of a... What do you say?

Accident. Accident bollocks, it's cos you lot's incompetent assholes. Shut up,

man, nobody did it on purpose. You take their sale, we might expect that. You

want to decide what you fit, you do.

I want to what?

You've got more mates amongst the addicts than us, look, man.

No, I haven't. You're my mate, I was more than... You are welcome to those

friends.

I've made me mind up. I'm coming with you.

Same. Just getting too much round here, lad, especially that Oz.

Anyway, I want to see Brenda. Thought that out.

You, er... You not forgot about something?

What? That incriminating masterpiece on your upper arm.

Oh, God!

I got so used to it, I'd forgot all about it.

That's a good job I mentioned it, then.

Isn't it?

Where is this bar, then?

I thought we were in the old town, but not quite. It's across this square,

opposite that bar where all the mix hang out, you know? What do you call it?

Oh, forget it. I just come across it by accident.

It's packed full of strumpets, though. Oh, that's a new bummer. I likes him.

Rump and scrum. I promise you, it's full of it. It's not one of them student

boards, is it? I can't stand them student boards. Ah, you get all sorts in

there. It's good sounds, too.

Van Halen, Styx, ACDC.

No chance of Eve Boswell, I suppose.

Who? Eve Boswell.

Sugar brush, come dance with me.

Don't that ring a bell?

Can't say it does, my son. I know she all wants to bum her.

Tell you what else bummer used to like.

Yarner.

Remember Yana, Dennis?

Well, vaguely.

I don't recall any of her records, but she had enormous tits and lived

near Brighton.

Oh, and have a shiv of yourself.

Oh, don't worry, Dennis. I just wanted a shiv. I'll be in a minute.

Can't fix that, then?

Yeah, great idea, that. Cheers, mate.

I read this spy book once, you know, where this bloke brings the plants

in a plaster cast.

He pretends his leg's broke, like, and then he comes across the border with a

microfilm stuck down the plaster.

Can I have that, Leek?

Except you've got a coating shot.

Cheers, Oz.

Leek, I'm ready.

Hey, have a pint of bitter for me, will you?

Don't call it bitter where I come from, son.

Nah, they call it sheep dip. It's the best beer you can get, pal.

All right, see you, lads. Bye, Harold.

Hey,

listen, if you come back Sunday, bring the papers. Yeah, sure, I will do.

Bye.

I hope he works out, I hope. Right.

Cheers, mate.

Hey, what do you mean, I hope he works out?

You're worried about his divorce, aren't you?

Oh, hey, I didn't realise that.

Ah, it's nice to me, I know.

Is it different than getting a divorce, then?

Sadly, yes.

Well, look, you bloody Dennis.

Hello. Come in. Come in.

You must be Mr.

Patterson. How are you?

Clive Armitage.

How do you do?

And how are you, Vera?

I'm fine, thanks, Clive.

Right. Sit down, won't you?

I was just sorting through this lot.

I'm sorry, but there's no one else here on a Saturday.

Yeah, well, I appreciate that, but I can't get here through the week.

Yes.

Now, Vera, your wife tells me that you haven't appointed your own solicitor

Am I right? No, well, you see, I didn't think it would get this far.

I'm afraid it has got this far, and we have to move ahead.

Well, I've done my best to accelerate things, haven't I? Dennis, there's no

to be so... To what, pet?

When I knew she was serious, I said to myself, right, let's get this all over

with as soon as we can.

That's why I signed the letter.

Yes, I have it here, Mr Patterson.

But I still can't represent both of you, ethically and professionally.

And as you have a home and family, you should have legal counsel.

It's for your own good. Look, I know what's good for me.

It's all been stripped away by what's happened here and now.

Do you mind if I smoke?

Not at all.

Use that lighter.

Sorry, you're soon.

You have to consider division of matrimonial assets, such as the house

belongings. There are the periodical payments to consider, what we used to

maintenance for the wife and children.

There's the question of access to the children. There's always more to go into

it than you figure.

I'll get a solicitor. I'll see to it.

How long before it's all done?

You should have a... Well, it depends on the court lists, but you should have a

decree in ISI within three months, then six weeks to make it absolute.

Absolute?

That's a hard word to argue with.

I realise for a minute I'm not used to curtains and wallpaper.

Yeah. A cup of tea in the journal.

Oh, excellent.

Do you know what time it is?

Never. It's after eleven.

Never? Uh -huh. I was up at nine.

I've been to the shops already and I've had a coffee with my sister.

Oh, I slept like a log. Out of the world.

It's jet lag.

Oh. What have you been up to over there? Too many late nights?

Oh, I have a very wild social life.

I've never seen me bed for a week. Oh, who's then?

Don't be daft.

I don't know where you get these ideas from.

How were you spilling your tea, Neville?

Sorry.

Come here.

You're like an animal.

You didn't mind last night, though, did you? I just wondered where you'd got it

from. Don't be daft.

Didn't seem to hear you at all.

What? Your bad arm.

Arm? Well, like I said, I fear you.

You never told us how it happened.

Well, it was some scaffolding fell down. Have a look. Wait.

Oh, it should have a new dressing, shouldn't it?

I'll do it. I'll get some new bandages. No.

Don't worry, pet.

I was a nurse after all.

Come on through, then.

Oh, I was just passing by.

Where did you carry your breakfast?

I just got out an hour ago. I slept like a log. I woke up in the fireplace.

Where's your Brenda?

She's out in the hairdresser's.

We're going on the town for a meal tonight.

All right, nice. Yeah, I'll make you some fresh tea. No, no, no, don't

Neville. I thought I might catch a pint down the mud pile.

Oh, right, yeah.

I've got to know what to kill. Like, I'm picking up the burns at one, taking

them out for the day.

Oh, nice.

I could be, if I knew where to take them.

Where would you suggest?

I don't know.

It's a bit cold for the beach, eh?

It's too cold for the beach in bloody August, Ronnie.

They're a bit young for the match.

Aye. Aye, we'd better let them get a bit older before we inflict that misery on

them, eh?

Hey, how's your arm? By the way, is it on the mend? Oh, hey, what a narrow

escape I had.

Brenda wanted to change the dressing. Never.

How did you get out of that?

Well, I told her they put this special ointment on which had to be allowed to

set. Set?

What did you say it was there, a plain glue?

I had to say something.

Well, it's nothing, bunny lad, compared to the deception that she imagined you'd

up to, eh? Oh, I've got a mind at rest about that.

You have to be firm with a man, Dennis. Really? Hey, I should have sought your

advice earlier, Neville.

Oh, how you were at the solicitors, weren't you? How'd it go?

Come on, man. Get your gate on. Let's get that pint.

Donker. Cheers, mate.

Your health, old chum.

Cheers, Bob.

Hey, Den and Neville being their local now, don't be afraid to let Neville out.

Oh, Tim's got no more trouble on that score, has he?

Poor dad.

He don't say much.

Keeps it all inside.

But he's taking his divorce kind of hard.

He'll throw him off kilter, you'll see.

How long you been married, Bob?

Oh, longer than I care to call by you.

Oh, I don't mean her.

I mean Times Wing Harriet.

She's okay, you see, your old lady.

Fine woman.

It can't be easy looking after Bomber and Five kids.

No, I reckon I'd done all right there.

To earn exactly a union blessing, I hope.

But since that night he was consummated in the caravan outside Bridport, it

meant it's a laugh at the distance.

Hey, in spite of your obsession for yarnery. Oh, she don't know nothing

that.

Hey!

You must have been working there Saturday.

I'd have put a bit in myself if it weren't for my angle work.

Hey, it was a good club waiting for him, wasn't it?

Only be, lad.

It's okay.

Look,

don't have an old grudge about yesterday.

That on.

You don't speak for the rest of us.

Have a drink, right?

Now, Duncan.

Suit yourself.

Bye, David.

It would appear relations are strained.

Pro tem.

Do you mind if I take my paper and prep for the lad?

David, take the breath, will you? I'd like to read Roderick Mann.

That great smell.

I've got a leg of lamb.

Oh, great.

I just live on rubbish over there.

All fried or out of tins.

You should try and eat the right kinds of food, pet.

Fruit's important.

I've packed you a lot of oranges.

And I'll make you some sandwiches for tonight when you get back.

Wish I didn't have to go.

No.

I know you think we're just raving it up over there, but honestly, it's not like

that at all.

Not for me, anyway.

Stop in most nights or just pop over to the local.

Well, you must go out sometimes, though. To discos and that.

Why do you?

Oh, only on Thursdays.

What happens Thursdays?

The girls may go to Tuxedo Junction. Girls going free that night.

What's Tuxedo Junction?

Oh, very exclusive.

Lots of footballers get down there.

Oh, do they?

Why?

Don't you trust us, eh?

As much as you trust me.

Well, that's okay then, isn't it?

I could have had another four hours with them. The plane doesn't go until five.

Denny, I know.

How often do they get the chance of going over to the country?

Alan's going to drive them to Rockbury.

Anyway, after you'd gone, what would they do with sitting in front of the

television as usual?

Kids needed them.

Does it never occur to you that I might need them?

Let's not start.

Oi, oi.

Kevin, I told you to put a warm coat on. Not cool, Mum. You will be up on them

words. Go on.

Can I wear this, Mum?

Yes. Yes.

Put this round your head.

She's never had a cold, this one.

Why's my dad not coming?

Oh, they're all going to go back to Germany.

I'd come otherwise.

You know that, don't you, eh?

Mam, can I take my ball? You won't need it, Kevin.

Just this once, you won't need your ball.

He's going to play for Newcastle one day, aren't you, son, eh?

Yeah. Me and Derek, we're not going to join together.

No, you are.

Come on, there's Alan.

Well, ta -ra, then. Hey.

You look after your mum, right? You're big enough to know, you know.

Ta -ra, Dad.

Ta -ra, Dad.

Ta -ra.

Love you.

Got a great car.

All in. All in.

All in, you best bid off.

How will you get there, Paul?

Well, I'll just cheer a car for Neville.

Give him my love.

And Brenda too, if you see her, tell her I'll pop round and I owe her a visit.

Yeah, sure.

Well, take care then.

You too.

Good side, eh?

Magic. Great, thanks.

Hey, is everybody up?

Oh, there'll be a sound.

Sways away with some dupes.

What?

What's up with you, then?

Oh, full of cold.

Hey, you want some tea, Dad?

What? Oh, no. No, thanks, Mox.

God, what a...

Pressing place, eh?

Sunday night in a hut in Dusseldorf.

Aye.

Especially after all, mate.

Too true.

Hey, do you know exactly where the lads are?

Oh, there'll be a new bar that Wayne found.

It's across the square in the old town, you know. What is it, that pub where the

mix drink?

What do you say, Neva?

We'll go suicidal if we spend the night in here.

Couple wouldn't hurt, would they? No, come on.

Oh, there

you

are, mate.

Welcome back to the far line. We told you escape was impossible.

Keep your voice down. You know, you were going to get us really murdered one

day. You've only been back two minutes. You two's on my back already.

I'm offering a flash, mate. Hey, if you pass that cigarette machine, get us 20

francs. No, I'm sure they are, isn't it? No, there's never anybody around on the

same day.

Sorry?

Neat, fancy, Deutsch, English.

Oh,

well... Aye. Sure.

Late. Late.

Your name?

Neville. Little Neville.

Aye. Leave it to you. Neville's poor.

What, Neville?

Never. They're chummy, aren't they? He was out with his wife, did you forget?

Thing?

Eh? You buy me a thing?

Oh, er... Sorry, I must go now.

I leave.

Sorry.

Wait.

Where are you going?

Big old billing site.

With Texas?

Yeah.

Well... Must be off.

No.

It's my way. I shall wait.

What?

Dropped me to the right in it.

Don't be stupid.

We're just sharing a cab. I said I was off.

I'll be off before I start.

Who wouldn't like a rapid rain pipe?

Oh, good day.

I

pray,

really.

Please, will you walk with me?

Walk? Thank you.

or what's the special about this place then?

Knocked a block last night.

Private. Couldn't move a stone.

Oh, that's a playboy match if it were.

So you and us were here both nights, were you? Yeah. So was I. Well, that

explains it, doesn't it?

What? You frightened them all up?

No. We warned Oz not to use his charm. Oh, Halloween bollocks.

Yeah, Nev, you haven't talked to the old comer last night yet.

I wasn't opening a flat, I'm sure. It's not what we got back.

Aye, could still be another, that. Yeah, what's the word, then? Nev got jumped

last night or something, eh? I couldn't believe it.

All right, outside.

Huh? All right.

Now, please, outside.

All British, come with me.

All of

the British.

Hey,

what's going on?

Hey, here's the place and I think you're right.

Je mehr ich loszukommen versuchte, desto gewaltsamer wurde er.

Er schlug mir auf den Kopf und schlug auch mein Gesicht gegen die Hautrand.

Er hörte damit auf, als ich zu Boden rutschte und weinte.

Er traf noch ein paar Mal nach mir, auch ins Gesicht, bevor er wegrannte, weil

der Hund meines Nachbarn zu bellen anfing.

Ich versichere alle Angaben der Wahrheit entsprechend nach bestem Wissen und

Gewitten gemacht zu haben.

Before you sign, I want you to read it again.

Read it carefully and take your time.

Maybe you want to change something, or maybe your attention is lost.

Would you like a coffee?

Yes, please.

Let the rain come.

And as I said, take your time.

Please, why am I here?

Me here? How and why?

I don't understand German.

Doesn't anybody here speak English?

I want somebody to tell us what's going on.

I don't understand.

The police say that the girl, she was assaulted, beaten up.

Yeah, well, anybody could say that.

What's that got to do with Neville?

So what happened?

She pointed him out.

Last night she say he beat her up.

Bloody madness, man. Look, you know, young Neville, you know he's not capable

a thing like that.

Don't you?

It would surprise me, yes, I admit. It bastard should.

It is in police hands, all right? No, it's not all right.

Look, that young lad's down that cop shop, right? He's alone, he'll be scared

stiff, he'll need a lawyer.

Look, you give me an hour off work, I'll get on there, try and sort it out.

He should have helped.

Wait for me.

And

then

I dropped her off at her apartment.

You go with girl.

Hon?

You went with her to her apartment?

She asked us to.

She said it was dark and she asked us to take her in.

But I only went part of the way.

And she asked us inside, but I said no, I had to get back.

So I left her and went to find another cab.

How long did it take you to get another cab?

Only about ten minutes.

I was back in the hut soon after.

That's enough time.

What did he say?

He said it was long enough.

Long enough for what?

I was only with her a minute at the most.

It took us about ten minutes to find the cab.

You can check the times with the barman and all me mates.

And the, and both cubbies?

What did he say?

He said he wants to question you and everybody who was with Neville last

He's coming back to the building site with us.

Well, come on and go and see the lad.

Please, Dennis.

It'll not help.

Snap.

They let you see him this time?

Aye. Poor sod.

Won't they let him out? They have to let you out unless they charge you.

They've charged him?

With what?

I don't know, whatever the Germans call it.

Assault, I suppose.

At least he's got a lawyer now.

I suppose it's the equivalent of our legal aid.

Apparently he's a good enough bloke, but I mean, how can we tell?

Well, what about Bell?

I mean, don't they have that over here?

They want 3 ,000 marks in his passport.

3 ,000?

How are we going to manage that?

God knows.

We'll have to have a whip around, I suppose.

Where's all the lads at?

Over the club.

We're all skimped, man, and it's only Tuesdays.

Oh, Jesus, what a bloody mess.

Look, if you lot want to make anything of this, just forget about it, right?

should know young Neville better. Please.

We know him, as you say.

We wish to help.

You do? Yeah.

Oh,

cheers. Look, we need bail.

Money, you know, to get him out.

Ah.

Okay, we all put in

No

Now what just cuz I'm two minutes it I'm here

What's up?

Telephone from England.

Where can it be from here, man?

Please take it.

Where in here?

Hello, who's that?

Hello, who's speaking, please? This is Ozzie. Who's that?

Brenda Hall.

Never mind.

Oh, hi.

Is he there, please?

No,

he's not at the moment.

Is he all right?

Oh, he's fine, why?

Well, it's just that he usually calls us Monday night and Mondays and Fridays

without fail.

Only he never called last night.

Well, I had this number for emergency, you could see, and, well... No, well,

there's nothing to worry about.

He's had an accident, hasn't he? No, no, he's fine himself.

It's just, um... It's just what?

Why can't he come to the phone?

Well, er, he's had a bit of bother, like...

Hey, guys.

Good news is the Eric's having a whip round for Neville's bill.

It's not great, eh?

Oh.

What's the matter?

Well,

the bad news is Brenda's coming over.

What?

Oh,

hello. Hello.

Hans Bauer. Oh, Dennis Patterson. You're the chap I spoke to on the phone.

You're Neville's... I'm Mr. Penn.

If it goes that far. Thank God you speak good English.

The Düsseldorf judiciary knows that only too well.

They give me many Englander... Sorry, I mean Englishmen.

Own Scots, too.

Football hooligans.

My butter and bread.

I've brought a German friend just in case.

Helmut Fischer. Bauer.

Angenehm. Ganz meinerseits.

Dann nehmen wir noch mal Augenblick hier Platz.

What do you mean if it goes up for?

I think there is not a case.

I've now seen copies of the girl's statement and also the report from the

log. I'll give you translations, of course.

You'll see.

There are many holes.

However... I must now do some homework of my own, just in case.

See witnesses, verify facts, etc., etc., etc.

Well, I can bring the lads in whenever you like. Oh, good, good. Sir, shouldn't

we talk about all this when Neville is released?

Of course, you're absolutely right.

Sure. Oh, he says maybe we should discuss all this after we got Neville

Yeah, I've got that. Yeah, that's a good idea.

Did you bring the authority?

Yes, all here.

It'll just need a lot of counting.

Did you win all this in a poker school?

No, no, we had a whip round.

I'm sorry.

The boys put it together.

Oh, excellent.

That means Neville has many good friends, doesn't it?

Do you want to stop for a drink?

No, just let's get back here.

Hey, we would have had you out earlier, you know, if we'd had the money.

Mr. Ballard said the lads had a whip wrong, didn't he?

Well, hey, you can thank Helmut and all the Erics for that.

I can't thank you.

Oh, here, buddy lad, get it out of your system, then you can face the lads. Hey,

they're all dying to see you, you know.

I never thought I'd miss Oz.

I was right. It's full of holes. Look, according to this police report, they

this girl, this Bettina, near the street where she lives.

The patrol car spotted her, noticed she was in distress, but she ran away.

They followed her on foot and caught up with her.

So what exactly is the point?

Look, she ran away, right? She didn't report it.

She didn't go to the police or register a complaint or whatever they call it.

Right. So when she sees the law, does it run her? Absolutely.

But, see, the prosecution might argue that the girl evaded the police because

she didn't want the aggro. Oh, see, most rape cases, they don't get reported,

you know, because the victim don't want the stigma.

All right. Yeah, yeah, fair enough, Barry, fair enough.

But the other alternative issue was trying to protect somebody.

The boyfriend?

Boyfriend? Wait, the bloke she was with in the bar.

There were a few shaggy -haired louts hanging round her. Oh, I know, it's

There was one bloke in particular, right?

Right, she was having a ding -dong with him, right? Yeah, he looked very beady,

he did, when Nev went off with her.

Oh, that's why she tried to pull you, then, to get up the other geezer's nose.

Yeah. You mean to her nose irresistible charm?

Yeah. Listen, I get friends.

Me friend, he's...

Who you look for. Right, that's more like it. Let's find the bastards and

them a good scolding. No, I think... You just stay put.

Look, we know the bars.

Speak language.

Ask questions.

Need someone to identify them, won't you, though? You and me go, Bond. We'll

know them.

I think they had a jeep.

I'll make some coffee. Good luck, lads.

I'm going to go for a shower. Thanks for a couple of jobs, right, Annette?

Right. You're on, Wayne.

A thing like this really lets you know who your friends are. You're right

It does that.

Listen, uh... Something I've got to tell you.

Uh, well, look.

I've heard it all the time. I've heard it all the time.

Brenda.

She's coming over.

What? She knows all about it. How did she find out? Well, you didn't ring on

Monday, you see. I mean, she panicked. She rang the site.

Oz was passing like... Oz!

A mate, a bloody moon! Well, it wasn't entirely Oz's fault, Neville, you know.

mean, he was caught on the spot.

I mean, he couldn't explain why you weren't available without her thinking

were ill or something.

Anyway, I rang her straight back.

But she was adamant.

Anyway, she missed today's flight, which will be over first thing in the

morning.

They should have kept me inside, lad.

What for?

Cos I'm going to kill Oz.

You're looking very happy today.

I am, Pet.

Last night, Helmut and his mates found the bloke who beat up a girl.

Yes? Yeah, looks like it. I think they persuaded him to accompany them down to

Clink. Clink? Police station.

Anyway, we've all got to go down there for testimony and that, but... Will you

do me a favour?

Oh, you?

Oh, you, I do a favour.

Well, Neville's wife, she's flying in. Any chance you could nip off and meet

her? Sure, of course.

I don't know how to thank you.

Don't worry. I'll think of some way.

Thanks ever so much. That is all right.

The reservation is in your name, okay?

Goodbye.

Cheerio.

Hello, Craig.

Oh, Dennis. I know, I know. Come on, there's no need to fret. It's all over

with. He's a free man.

What? Well, he's concluding formalities, but all charges are dropped. They've

got the other bloke.

Honest? Well, don't look too surprised. You don't think Neville did it, did you?

Oh, no, of course not.

Aye, aye. Some of our German friends, they found the bloke and turned him in.

I think they extracted their own confession. He didn't look too healthy.

Well, what exactly happened then?

Well, this bloke... You see, he was like the boyfriend. Well, he got the needle

when he saw... Neville take her home. Well, he bit her up, you see.

Then the police saw her condition and she fingered Neville. He did take her

home, didn't he? Look, Brenda, the point is... That is the point, Dennis.

Of course, I knew that Neville didn't do the things they said he did, but he

took that girl home. He went with her. He didn't.

Look, she imposed herself on him. She shared his cab.

Look, you know young Neville, he's so polite, he'd give Hitler a ride.

You're going to make me very angry, Brenda. At what?

Look, if you can't see how much that lad cares for you, you're a very silly

lass. He cares so much it hurts.

It hurts him to be away from home. It hurts every minute he has to spend over

here, sacrificing everything he wants so that you can enjoy something better in

the future.

Look, he's the only bugger in Germany who isn't on the pull. You're his

You're his wife and you don't seem to know that lad as well as I do.

Look, the reason he got into trouble is because he didn't go with the girl.

If he'd been like the rest of us, he'd have gone. Oh, aye, he'd have gone. He'd

have done the business.

She'd have been content.

Nobody'd have been none the wiser. But he's not like the rest of us.

He gave her the elbow.

She got vindictive.

He didn't want to know.

That's what happened.

I suppose so.

Look, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to...

Sound off at you like that.

It's just... Well, you two, you've got a marvellous marriage.

And I appreciate that more than most because mine's down the toilet.

Oh, you're right, Dennis.

Well, what happens now?

Well, let's go and fetch the lad, eh?

Well, thanks.

Thanks for everything.

For me, it was a change from defending Britishers who've broken up bars.

Thanks very much, Herr Bauer. Bitte, bitte, gern geschehen.

And your helmet and your mates. I don't know how you managed to nail them.

Didn't surprise me, like.

Why? How was that, like?

Say, have faith I've making you talk.

Are you going to introduce us to your friends? Never.

Certainly not.

We're going back to the hotel and we're out for a meal tonight.

Never mind, Pat. She's not worth it.

I'll give you a ride back to the hotel, yes?

Oh, cheers.

Over there, yes? Can I have a word, please?

Just a minute, Pat.

What's the matter? Look, I suppose sooner or later, you and Brenda will be

to bed, like.

What business is that of yours?

That's the case. I think you should take precautions.

What do you mean?

Brenda's on the pill.

I are, but I still think I should wear this, though.

How very kind.

Well, you know, I appreciate it. You've been a lot of help.

It really was not necessary, but thank you.

Oh, thank you.

Oh, what about the happy couple?

Oh, Brenda's staying over. Neville's going to take her for a meal and show

old town.

And you're going with them?

What do they need me for?

Perhaps you could take me out for a meal then.

Yeah?

Or are you another one of the married men?

Yeah, I'm afraid I am, yeah.

But only just.
