Man: DEAR SIR,
THERE IS MONEY, A LARGE SUM,

DUE TO ME FROM THE SALE OF MY

AND THERE IS ALSO MONEY TO COME
FROM THE STANDARD OIL COMPANY,

WHO HAVE CHARTERED

IN ALL, ABOUT �40,000.

WHEN THIS COMES,

NATURALLY I WILL HAVE NO MORE
NEED OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

AND WILL RETURN MY ORDER BOOK,
REFERENCE NUMBER 86-27946.

I WILL ALSO PAY
TO THE GOVERNMENT �10,000,

WHICH SHOULD MORE THAN COVER
ANYTHING I HAVE RECEIVED,

THE BALANCE TO GO
TO THE TREASURY

TO BE USED FOR ANY PURPOSE
THE PRIME MINISTER WISHES.

MY SOLICITORS, MESSRS. KEAN,
DUNCAN, AND McKENZIE,

WILL BE DEALING
WITH THESE MATTERS.

MEANWHILE, AS YOU ARE AWARE,
THE POWERS THAT BE

HAVE AGAIN INCREASED
THE RATES,

AND THEY ARE DEMANDING FROM ME
IMMEDIATE PAYMENT

OF 10 SHILLINGS AND SIXPENCE-

ALSO, SIXPENCE MORE EVERY WEEK.

I ENCLOSE THEIR ACCOUNT
FOR YOU TO SEE.

WELL, WHAT'S THE LATEST?
ARE THEY STILL AT IT?

YES. GOOD MORNING,
SERGEANT.

YES. THEY WERE LISTENING THIS MORNING.

WELL, I'VE BEEN
THINKING, YOU KNOW.

WHY DON'T YOU GET RID OF
THAT WIRELESS SET OF YOURS?

THAT'S THE ANSWER.

YES. YES, BUT WHAT
ABOUT THE PIPES

AND ALL THE OTHER
THINGS?

OH, YES, OF COURSE.
I'D FORGOTTEN ABOUT THEM.

WELL, IT ALL
TAKES TIME, YOU KNOW.

WE HAVE GOT
A MAN ON IT FULL-TIME.

ONE OF THE BEST

YES, BUT THERE IS
SOMETHING NEW.

THEY'VE HAD
A KEY CUT,

AND THEY GET IN WHEN
I'M OUT VISITING FRIENDS

AND GO THROUGH
MY PRIVATE PAPERS.

IS THAT SO? WELL,
I MUST MAKE NOTE OF THAT.

YOU SEE, IT'S DEFINITELY NOT THE DOLANS.

THE DOLANS WENT
SOME WEEKS AGO,

AND INDIANS ARE NOW LIVING IN THE HOUSE.

ONE OF THEM
HAS A BEARD,

AND THERE'S
A WHITE WOMAN

WHO MAY BE HELD AGAINST
HER WILL. I DON'T KNOW.

YES. WELL,
WE'LL CHANGE OUR LINE

NO ONE WILL GET
ANYTHING TO EAT IN HERE TODAY

IS STOPPED IMMEDIATELY!

NOW SIT DOWN. SIT DOWN, ALL OF YOU.

AREN'T YOU ASHAMED
OF YOURSELVES?

AREN'T YOU?

Congregation: YES.

SING A HYMN.

THEN YOU WILL GET
YOUR SOUP. UNDERSTAND?

Congregation: YES, SIR.

RIGHT.

MRS. ROSS,
OVER HERE, PLEASE.

HELLO, MRS. ROSS.

I GOT YOUR LETTER.

YOU'VE GOT 10 AND 6, I THINK IT WAS,

TO PAY AT ONCE.
IS THAT RIGHT?

YES, AND I WANT
A PAIR OF SHOES.

YES, ALL RIGHT. WELL,
YOU GET THE 10 AND 6 NOW,

AND YOU MUST GO DOWN AND PAY
THE BILL AS SOON AS YOU CAN.

WILL YOU DO THAT?

YES. I'LL DO IT
TOMORROW MORNING

AFTER I'VE DONE
MY CHARITY WORK.

GOOD. YOU DO THAT.

WELL, NOW,
ABOUT THE SHOES.

I'LL SEND SOMEONE
TO SEE YOU

BEFORE THE END
OF THE WEEK.

TRY AND STAY AT HOME
IN THE MORNINGS, WILL YOU?

I SOMETIMES HAVE TO GO OUT QUITE EARLY

IN CONNECTION WITH PERSONAL MATTERS-

TO SEE MY LAWYER
AND SO ON.

OH, I KNOW, YES, BUT IF
YOU COULD JUST STAY AT HOME

IN THE MORNING
FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS,

IT WOULD BE A GREAT HELP TO ME, YOU SEE.

VERY WELL,
MR. CONRAD.

ONE NEVER MINDS OBLIGING
A REAL GENTLEMAN.

MY HUSBAND, ALTHOUGH HIS QUALITIES

WEREN'T APPARENT
TO EVERYBODY,

HAD THE MAKINGS
OF A GENTLEMAN.

YOU SEE, I MARRIED
BENEATH ME.

DO YOU EVER HEAR
FROM YOUR SON?

HE SENT ME
A HUGE BUNCH

OF FLOWERS
YESTERDAY-ROSES.

IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY.

WELL, THAT WAS
NICE OF HIM.

HE NEVER FORGETS.

ARE YOU THERE?

Man: THIS IS PRECISELY
WHAT WE, AS A PARTY,

SHALL BE LOOKING TO
IN THE FUTURE

AND PAYING STRICT
REGARD TO, MOREOVER.

WE ARE NOT A PARTY
THAT PAYS LIP-SERVICE

TO THE OLD-AGE PENSIONER
AT ELECTION TIME

AND THEN
CONVENIENTLY FORGETS.

THE PROBLEM, THE MAJOR
PROBLEM OF OLD AGE,

IS UNDOUBTEDLY
LONELINESS.

A GREAT MANY OLD PEOPLE
LIVE ENTIRELY ALONE,

UNVISITED
AND UNWANTED,

LIVING DAY IN AND DAY
OUT IN SMALL ROOMS,

WITHOUT
COMPANY OR FRIENDS.

POOR OLD SOULS.

WE ARE GOING TO BE
THEIR FRIENDS,

AND I PUT IT TO YOU...

THAT AT THE NEXT
ELECTION,

WE SHALL ALL GO FORWARD
AND CAST OUR VOTES

IN THE LIGHT OF WHAT
I HAVE SAID HERE TODAY

AND WILL-

NOW, YOU LEAVE ME ALONE.
DO YOU HEAR UP THERE?

YOU LEAVE ME ALONE!

YOU GET AWAY FROM THERE.

DO YOU HEAR?

YOU GET AWAY!
YOU GET AWAY FROM THERE.

LET ME IN.
IT'S ME.

I KNOW WHO IT IS.
I KNOW.

YOU GO AWAY FROM THERE, DO YOU HEAR?

BUT IT'S ME, MUM-
CHARLIE.

WHO?

CHARLIE.

CHARLIE WHO?

CHARLIE, MUM.
YOUR CHARLIE. YOUR SON.

BUT YOUR FATHER
ISN'T AT HOME.

HE HASN'T BEEN AT HOME
FOR 20 YEARS,

YOU STUPID OLD MARE.

I DIDN'T COME
TO SEE DAD, MUM.

I CAME TO SEE YOU,
DARLING.

WHAT FOR?

I'VE GOT SOMETHING
FOR YOU.

WHAT?

A PRESENT.

HELLO, MUM.

WHERE IS IT?

WHAT, DARLING?

IS THAT IT?

THIS? OH,
THE PRESENT, YOU MEAN.

NO, NO,
THIS ISN'T IT.

WHERE IS IT, THEN?

IT'S A SURPRISE.

LET ME IN, AND I'LL GIVE IT TO YOU.

YOU CAN'T STAY
THE NIGHT.

I HAVEN'T GOT THE GUEST ROOM MADE UP.

THAT'S ALL RIGHT.
I'M NOT ON THE SCROUNGE.

I JUST WANT TO COME IN
AND SEE YOU

FOR A MINUTE OR TWO.
THAT'S ALL.

I CAN PAY A VISIT
TO ME OWN MOTHER, CAN'T I?

YES.

WELL, HERE WE ARE,
THEN.

BEEN TO A WEDDING,
HAVE YOU?

YOU'VE GOT
CONFETTI IN YOUR HAIR.

CONFETTI?

YES.

AH, FORGET IT.

WELL, WE'RE NOT GOING TO
STAND HERE ALL NIGHT, ARE WE?

LET'S GO INTO THE IDEAL HOME EXHIBITION.

YOU CAN PUT YOUR BROOM
DOWN. YOU DON'T NEED THAT.

IT'S NOT FULL MOON.

COR. BLIMEY.

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE
IN HERE, THEN?

Margaret:
DONE?

LOOK, WHY DON'T YOU...

I MEAN, CAN'T YOU...

LOOK, HERE'S
A COUPLE OF QUID.

BUY YOURSELF-
GET YOURSELF-

WHEN'S
YOUR BIRTHDAY?

GO AND SPEND IT
ON SOMETHING-

SOAP OR SOMETHING.

THANK YOU, CHARLIE. YOU
ALWAYS WERE A GOOD BOY.

YES. WELL, DON'T
GET HYSTERICAL.

LOOK, I'M GOING
TO THE ROOM, MUM.

I'M NOT LEAVING. I JUST
WANT TO GET SOMETHING.

I'LL BE BACK
IN A MINUTE.

MAKE US A CUP OF TEA OR SOMETHING.

OH.

HMM.

DID YOU GET IT?

WHAT?

WHAT YOU WERE
LOOKING FOR?

NO. IT DOESN'T
MATTER NOW.

WHAT WAS IT?

IT DOESN'T MATTER.

WELL, I'M GOING TO
GO NOW.

OH, I'VE JUST POURED YOU A CUP OF TEA.

OH, I'M SORRY. I JUST
LOOKED AT THE TIME,

AND IT'S LATE.

I'LL SEE YOU,
THEN.

I HAVEN'T SEEN YOUR
FATHER FOR QUITE A TIME.

WELL, THAT'S NO GREAT LOSS, IS IT?

I'LL BE OFF THEN,
ALL RIGHT?

CHARLIE.

WHAT?

WHERE'S YOUR PARCEL?

WHAT PARCEL?

YOU HAD IT
UNDER YOUR ARM.

OH, THE PARCEL.
I LEFT IT OUT HERE.

I'LL PICK IT UP
ON THE WAY OUT.

LOOK AFTER YOURSELF,
THEN.

SHALL I SEE YOU?

YES. I'LL BE BACK AGAIN SOON
- ABOUT A WEEK.

CHARLIE.

CHARLIE.

WON'T...

WON'T KEEP HOT
FOR A WEEK.

CAN YOU DENY THAT?

DIDN'T HE GIVE ME MONEY?

WHAT?

I DIDN'T ASK FOR IT.

HE GAVE IT.

STICKS AND STONES,
THAT'S ALL IT IS.

Man: YOU WANT TO MIND YOUR
MANNERS, YOU STUPID BITCH!

Woman: WHO NEEDS IT?

Man:
WELL, GET LOST!

AND YOU!

OH, I BEG
YOUR PARDON.

OH, EXCUSE ME.
MISS, MISS, MISS.

MRS. ROSS-
DOES SHE LIVE HERE?

SOME OLD BIRD
WHO LIVES DOWN THERE?

WHY DON'T YOU KNOCK
AND FIND OUT?

THANKS.

I COULD HAVE THOUGHT
OF THAT MYSELF.

WHY DIDN'T MR. CONRAD
COME HIMSELF?

AH, WELL, HE'S, UH,
BUSY, YOU SEE,

SO I DO
HIS OUTSIDE CALLS.

UM, YOU'VE-YOU'VE
GOT ANOTHER ROOM

APART FROM THIS,
HAVE YOU?

YES.

UH, MAY I SEE IT?
JUST ROUTINE.

WHILE I'M HERE,
YOU KNOW,

BUT IT DOESN'T
MATTER.

THERE'S NOTHING
IN THE ROOM.

NO-OH, THAT'S FINE,
THEN. UH...

JUST A QUICK LOOK
WHILE I'M HERE, EH?

THIS WAY, IS IT?

YOU READ A LOT,
DON'T YOU, MRS. ROSS?

YES. I'VE ALWAYS BEEN
A GREAT READER.

WE ALWAYS HAD A LIBRARY
AT THE OLD HOUSE.

I SEE. FOND OF
A GOOD READ MYSELF,

BOOKS AND THAT.

OF COURSE, YOU, UH...

UH, EVER THOUGHT OF GETTING
RID OF THOSE OLD NEWSPAPERS?

THEY CLUTTER UP THE
PLACE A BIT, DON'T THEY?

I LIKE TO KEEP THEM...
FOR REFERENCE.

YES, YES.

OF COURSE, THEY'RE A
BIT DANGEROUS, YOU KNOW,

IF THERE'S A FIRE
OR ANYTHING.

I'M VERY CAREFUL.

WELL, DIRTY, TOO.
THEY COLLECT THE DUST.

WELL, I KEEP THEM.

I MIGHT WANT TO
LOOK AT SOMETHING.

YES. WELL, RIGHT.

RIGHT. NOW ABOUT
THOSE SHOES YOU WANT-

IS THAT THE ONLY
PAIR YOU HAVE?

JUST THESE. I-

I CAUGHT IT
ON SOMETHING.

YES. YES, WELL, FINE.

YES. WE CAN MANAGE TO
DO SOMETHING ABOUT THOSE.

OH, YES. WE'LL SEE YOU
WITHIN A DAY OR TWO

ABOUT THESE.

I'D LIKE A NICE STYLE, THOUGH
- NOTHING RACY.

# JELLY ON THE PLATE,
JELLY ON THE PLATE #

# WIGGLE WAGGLE,
WIGGLE WAGGLE #

# JELLY ON THE PLATE #

Woman: OH, NO! I THOUGHT
YOU WERE GOING TO DO

THE WASHING UP
WHILE I WAS OUT.

Man: YOU'VE BEEN GONE
ALL AFTERNOON.

Woman: HAVE I?
LOOK AT THIS PLACE!

I SAID
I WOULD CLEAN IT.

YOU SIT DOWN HERE ALL DAY.
WHAT DO I DO?

I HAVE TO GO OUT
AND EARN SOME MONEY

WHILE YOU BLOODY WELL
SIT THERE, SIT THERE,

JUST SITTING AROUND THE HOUSE ALL
DAY WATCHING THE BLOODY TELEVISION!

I WAS GOING TO
LOOK FOR A JOB.

YOUNG LADY.

YOUNG LADY!

YES? WHAT?

WHY DON'T YOU ESCAPE?

DO WHAT?

ESCAPE. TAKE A CHANCE.
RUN AWAY NOW!

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING
ABOUT? RUN AWAY? WHO FROM?

FROM THAT VILE MAN WHO'S
HOLDING YOU AGAINST YOUR WILL.

AGAINST MY WHAT?

I KNOW. I KNOW HOW
HE TREATS YOU.

YOU GO TO THE POLICE,
AND YOU'LL GET PROTECTION.

WHAT HAVE I GOT TO
BE PROTECTED FROM?

FROM HIM!
FROM THAT INDIAN.

NOW LISTEN.

LISTEN. YOU MIND YOUR OWN
SODDING BUSINESS.

NOBODY ASKED YOUR ADVICE,
SO DON'T GIVE IT.

OH, AND THE OTHER NIGHT, YOU WAS BASHING
ON THE CEILING WITH SOMETHING, WEREN'T YOU?

WELL, YOU CAN LAY OFF
THAT FOR A START!

OTHERWISE, I'M TELLING YOU, I'LL COME
DOWN HERE, I'LL BASH YOUR DOOR IN,

AND ONCE I'M IN, I'M JUST AS
LIKELY TO BASH YOU IN, TOO.

KEEP YOUR BLEEDING NOSE OUT OF IT, ELSE
YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'LL NEED PROTECTING!

Man: WHO YOU TALKING TO DOWN THERE?

NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU! SO
YOU GET THE MESSAGE, DO YOU?

DON'T YOU START GIVING ME
THAT POLICE STUFF, EITHER.

OTHERWISE, I'LL BE THE ONE
WHO'LL GO TO THE POLICE.

THEY'LL CART YOU OFF TO
THE BLEEDING NUT-HOUSE.

THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

OUT OF SIGHT. I'LL PUT THEM OUT OF
SIGHT TILL I GET THEM SORTED OUT.

HE WON'T LOOK
IN THE CUPBOARDS.

OOH. WHAT'S THAT?

I HAVEN'T SEEN THAT BEFORE.

WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?

FUNNY SORT OF PARCEL.
I DON'T REMEMBER...

OH, GOD.

OHH.

OH, MY GOD.

PUT IT IN THE DRAWER.

ARE YOU THERE?

Conrad:
DEAR MR. CONRAD,

I AM GLAD TO TELL YOU THAT
MY-MY MONEY HAS ARRIVED AT LAST,

AND I WILL NO LONGER HAVE TO
ACCEPT CHARITY OR INSULTS.

Margaret: NOT MEANING YOU,
OF COURSE-

YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN
A GENTLEMAN-

BUT ANOTHER SO-CALLED CIVIL
SERVANT WHO WAS FAR FROM CIVIL,

ALTHOUGH PAID OUT OF TAXES

THAT ARE RUINING THE FEW PEOPLE OF
GOOD BIRTH AND BREEDING THAT ARE LEFT.

Conrad: I WILL NOT NOW
HAVE TO GET RID OF-

TO USE HIS OWN
COARSE EXPRESSION-

OF THE PAPERS AND BOOKS
I HAVE COLLECTED FOR MANY YEARS.

BEING A READER, WHH ISARE THESE
DAYS, WHEN VERY FEW ARE EDUCATED,

ALTHOUGH SO MUCH IS SPENT ON
SCHOOLS AND TEACHERS, ET CETERA,

AND THERE IS SO MUCH IGNORANCE EVEN
AMONGST SO-CALLED CIVIL SERVANTS-

NOT REFERRING TO YOU.

Margaret: MR. CONRAD,
AS I SAID ALREADY,

I HAVE NO COMPLAINT ABOUT YOU, BUT
ONLY GRATITUDE AND KIND THOUGHTS.

Conrad: I MAY GO ABROAD
FOR THE WINTER

TO THE UNIQUE CHARMS
OF THE UNSPOILT BAHAMAS,

AND SO I WILL NOT NEED MY
NATIONAL ASSISTANCE BOOK ANYMORE,

AND I WILL RETURN IT LATER TODAY
WITH THANKS FOR PAST FAVORS.

Margaret: P.S.: I ENCLOSE A POUND
FOR YOU TO BUY A PRESENT FOR YOURSELF.

WOMAN TOOK AN EPILEPTIC FIT
JUST BEFORE YOU COME IN.

THEY TOOK HER
IN ANOTHER ROOM.

Woman:
MISS CURTIS, PLEASE.

SHE'S NOT LONG FOR
THIS WORLD. TELL THAT.

YOU CAN TELL JUST BY
LOOKING AT THEM.

Man: MR. GROGAN, PLEASE.

THEY'RE BETTER OFF OUT OF
IT, REALLY, AREN'T THEY?

Conrad: WHEN ARE YOU
STARTING WORK?

Man: TOMORROW, SIR. FIRST THING.

I'M STARTING WORK FIRST THING TOMORROW.

I JUST WANTED TO SEE IF
YOU COULD GIVE ME A GRANT

TO GET MY WORKING BOOTS AND OVERALLS.

I'VE SEEN YOU HERE
BEFORE, HAVEN'T I?

POSSIBLY.

I DOUBT IF YOU'LL
SEE ME HERE AGAIN.

MMM. LA-DE-BLOODY-DA.

SHE JUMPED THE QUEUE.
DID YOU SEE THAT?

WHO WROTE THIS?

WHO WROTE THAT? MR.
HEWITT, SIR. THE FOREMAN.

HIS HANDWRITING BEARS A
STRONG RESEMBLANCE TO YOUR OWN.

DOES IT, SIR?

YES, VERY STRONG. WE
CAN'T GIVE YOU A GRANT.

Man: YOU CALLING ME
A LIAR?

WON THE POOLS,
HAVE YOU?

NO.

WHATHEN? YOUR HUSBAND
COME OUT OF JAIL?

CERTAINLY NOT!

WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE,
THEN... LADY MUCK?

NOT THAT I'M BOTHERED ABOUT YOUR
BLOODY AFFAIRS, 'CAUSE I'M NOT.

THERE'S SUCH A THING AS
GOOD MANNERS, YOU KNOW.

MY MONEY HAS ARRIVED. THAT'S
WHY I SHAN'T BE HERE AGAIN.

WHAT MONEY?

THE MONEY FROM MY LATE FATHER'S ESTATE.

YOU KIDDING?!

I BEG YOUR PARDON?

I'M NOLIKE SOME,
YOU KNOW.

THEY CAN'T BEAR ANYBODY TO HAVE
A BIT OF LUCK. JEALOUSY, ISN'T IT?

I EXPECT SO.

THAT'S WHAT IT IS.
SHINES IN THEIR FACES.

STILL, IF YOU'VE NEVER HAD
IT, YOU NEVER MISS IT, DO YOU?

I HAD A COUSIN, YOU KNOW,
WON THE PREMIUM BONDS.

WELL, A BIT. ONLY �25

I NEVER ASKED FOR A PENNY.
I DIDN'T BEGRUDGE IT HER.

OF COURSE,
IT DIDN'T DO HER ANY GOOD.

IT CHANGED HER,
DID IT?

NO. SHE HAD IT STOLEN.

SHE PUT IN IN HER HANDBAG.
CAN YOU CREDIT IT?

SHE DREW IT OUT OF THE POST OFFICE
AND PUT IT STRAIGHT IN HER BAG.

NO, THAT'S A LIE.
SHE SPENT A BIT.

I'LL REMEMBER YOU,
YOU BASTARD.

YOU'LL GET THE END OF A BOTTLE
IN YOUR FACE ONE OF THESE NIGHTS.

JOLLY GOOD. NOW GET AWAY
BEFORE I CALL THE POLICE.

BUT SHE HAD �10.
�10 NICKED.

I'VE GOT MORE THAN THAT
IN MY PURSE AT THIS MOMENT.

YOU HAVEN'T.

LOOK.

Conrad: MRS. ROSS.
MRS. ROSS, PLEASE.

THAT'S ME.
I MUST GO.

WELL, UH... I'LL WAIT FOR YOU,
MISSIS. YOU WON'T BE LONG, WILL YOU?

NO, I SHAN'T
BE LONG.

WHY SHOULD YOU WAIT FOR
ME? WE'RE NOT FRIENDS.

I'LL BE FRANK
WITH YOU, MISSIS:

IT'S NOT OFTEN I GET THE
CHANCE TO MEET A REAL LADY.

THIS IS A REAL
TREAT FOR ME.

I SEE. I SEE.

Conrad: MRS. ROSS,
OVER HERE, PLEASE.

OH, GOD, IT'S
COMING ON COLD.

YOU FEEL IT,
DON'T YOU,

WHEN YOU HAVEN'T GOT
WOOL NEXT TO YOUR SKIN?

YES, THERE IS
A CHILL IN THE AIR.

STILL, THEY'LL
BE OPEN SOON.

I DON'T SUPPOSE YOU'D DO ME THE HONOR

OF JOINING ME
IN A REFRESHMENT?

OH, I NEVER DRINK.

OH, I DON'T MEAN DRINK.
I MEAN, NOT DRINK.

I WOULDN'T SUGGEST THAT
TO A LADY LIKE YOURSELF.

NO, I MEAN A... A PORT,
PERHAPS. A GLASS OF PORT.

WE CAN SIT AT A TABLE NEAR THE
FIRE AND HAVE A WARM AND A CHAT.

YOU COULDN'T TAKE HARM
AT THAT, COULD Y?

YOU CAN EAT SAUSAGES
AND MUSTARD

AND SIP YOUR PORT FRIENDLY-LIKE
AND GET IN OUT OF THE COLD.

FOR THE OCCASION,
I MEAN.

WELL, IT IS SOMETHING
OF AN OCCASION.

OF COURSE IT IS,
A LADY LIKE YOU.

HERE, LET'S GET ON THIS
BUS. I KNOW JUST THE PLACE.

I DON'T USUALLY
TRAVEL BY BUS.

NO. WELL, IT'S ALL
VARIETY, AIN'T IT?

WHERE DOES THIS BUS GO TO?
I HAVE TO BE BACK, YOU SEE.

OH, JUST THE OTHER SIDE.
JUST THE OTHER SIDE.

Conductor:
FARES, PLEASE.

TWO 5s, PLEASE.

I HAVE TO BE BACK
TO SEE MY LAWYERS.

WELL, THEY'LL WAIT. AFTER
ALL, YOU'RE PAYING THEM.

IS IT MUCH FURTHER?

NO. NEXT STOP. YOU'LL
THANK ME WHEN YOU GET THERE.

WHERE ARE WE?

OH, IT'S ON THE ESTATE,
DEAR. ON THE NEW ESTATE.

I DON'T KNOW
THIS PART OF TOWN.

NO. WELL, YOU WOULDN'T, WOULD YOU?

I EXPECT YOU WENT
EVERYWHERE WITH A CHAUFFEUR.

IT'S JUST
UP HERE, LOVE.

I... I THINK
I OUGHT TO GO HOME.

OH, IT WOULD BE A PITY
NOW, WOULDN'T IT, DEAR?

WE'RE RIGHT
ON TOP OF IT.

THEY GET A GOOD CLASS
IN HERE, YOU KNOW.

WE'LL SIT IN THAT CORNER BY THE FIRE.

GO ON, LOVE.

YOU MAKE YOURSELF
COMFORTABLE.

A LARGE PORT AND A SMALL GIN, PLEASE.

OH, I'LL HAVE
SOME SAUSAGES.

THAT'S YOURS, LOVE.

YOU DON'T MIND ME
CALLING YOU LOVE, DO YOU?

I MEAN, I'M NOT BEING FAMILIAR;
IT'S JUST FORCE OF HABIT.

NOT AT ALL.

YOU SAID
I'D HAVE A SAUSAGE.

COURSE I DID.
WHAT A MEMORY.

CAN YOU BRING
THE SAUSAGES, LOVE?

COMING.

I'LL FORGET
ME OWN NAME NEXT.

LIKE I SAID, THIS IS ONE
OF THE BETTER-CLASS PLACES.

HERE WE ARE.

IT'LL HAVE TO BE FINGERS,
I'M AFRAID,

BUT I ALWAYS THINK IT
ADDS TO IT, DON'T YOU?

WELL, OF COURSE,
YOU WOULDN'T KNOW.

YOUR FATHER,
GOD REST HIM.

WHAT TOOK HIM?

TOOK HIM?

CHEERS. YES, I MEAN,
UH... HOW DID HE PASS OVER?

HE DIED IN THE SERVICE OF OTHERS.

WELL, IT'S BETTER IF
THEY GO QUICK, ISN'T IT?

5 MONTHS, EVERY NIGHT, I WENT TO
THE HOSPITAL FOR ME MOTHER. 5 MONTHS!

OF COUE, THEY WERE ONLY KEEPING
HER ALIVE WITH TUBES, YOU KNOW.

YOU LIKE THAT,
DO YOU?

IT'S NOT UNPLEASANT.

WE ALWAYS HAVE A BIT
OF PORT AT CHRISTMAS.

YOU KNOW, FOR AFTER
THE QUEEN'S SPEECH.

IT'S VERY WARMING.

WATCH ME. BIT OF SAUSAGE,
PLENTY OF MUSTARD...

THEN WASH IT DOWN.

SO HOW ARE YOU
GIRLS DOING?

FINE, THANKS.

Margaret,
unsteadily: WHEN...

WHEN MY AFFAIRS
ARE SETTLED...

PERHAP
I SHALL BE ABLE

TO OFFER YOU A PLACE
IN MY HOUSEHOLD.

AHH. GOD BLESS YOU,
LOVE.

WE LIVED...

WHEN I WAS A CHILD...
IN THE PALACE.

WHAT PALACE WAS THAT,
LOVE? CRYSTAL?

IT WAS THE BISHOP'S
PALACE.

MY FATHER WAS...
A BISHOP.

OH, WAS HE? YES.

TELL US ABOUT IT.

WE DANCED.

WE DANCED...
FOR HOURS

TILL THE MORNING.

ALL OF THE YOUNG MEN
WORE WHITE GLOVES.

OH! WE WERE
SO HAPPY.

THE CARRIAGES...
WERE WAITING.

YES. I THINK THEY'RE
OUTSIDE NOW.

UP YOU GET.

IT WAS LIKE
A CHRISTMAS CARD.

OF COURSE. YES.
YOU TELL ME ABOUT IT.

WHERE IS THIS?
AM I HOME NOW?

YES, THIS IS HOME,
LOVE.

Margaret: I SEE YOU'VE GOT
ONE OF THEIR KEYS.

ARE YOU THERE?

YES, IN THERE,
DEAR.

WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?
WERE THEY INVITED?

HEY, GET UP.
GET OUT OF MY CHAIR!

WE'RE PLAYING
CARDS.

DO YOU HEAR ME?
GET OFF!

THERE YOU ARE, LOVE.

YOU SIT DOWN THERE AND
MAKE YOURSELF COMFORTABLE.

HEY! TURN

WE'RE PLAYING CARDS!

COME ON. COME ON, MAVIS. YOU, AS WELL.

LISTEN, YOU. I DON'T WANT
ANY BLOODY LIP OUT OF YOU!

WHEN I TELL YOU
TO DO SOMETHING, DO IT

ALL RIGHT! I DID IT,
DIDN'T I?

WHO IS SHE, THEN?

NEVER MIND. AND TAKE THAT
FAG OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!

YOU CAN BOTH GET OFF
AND GET YOUR FATHER.

WELL, I'M NOT GOING OUT AGAIN.
I'VE JUST COME IN.

OH, DID YOU? NOW YOU START, AND I'LL
- JUST GO GET HIM.

DON'T KNOW
WHERE HE IS.

WHERE DO YOU THINK HE IS? YOU DON'T
NEED 2 BLOODY GUESSES FOR THAT, DO YOU?

JUST GO GET HIM AND TELL
HIM TO GET BACK HERE.

WHAT FOR?

TELL HIM I WANT HIM! TELL
HIM THERE'S SOME MONEY IN IT.

MONEY?

I THOUGHT YOU'D PRICK
YOUR EARS UP AT THAT.

DO AS YOU'RE TOLD, AND YOU
MIGHT GET YOUR SHARE. GO ON!

GO ON, MAVIS.
GO WITH HIM.

SORRY I LEFT YOU,
DEAR.

JUST GETNG
THE KI OFF TO BED.

TH-THEY'RE A GREAT
COMFORT, CHILDREN.

OH, YES. WOULDN'T BE
WITHOUT THEM.

LET ME HAVE
YOUR BAG, AR.

NOW YOU HAVE
A NICE SIP OF THAT.

IT'S ALL RIGHT. IT'S
WHAT YOU'VE BEEN DRINKING.

AFTER DINNER...

YES. WE'LL HAVE SOMETHING IN A MINUTE.

AFTER THE DINNER,

THE LADIES USED TO
LEAVE THE DINING ROOM,

AND THE GENTLEMEN
WOULD SIT WITH THEIR BRANDY

AND... SMOKED CIGARS.

THEY USED TO... SIT WITH
THEIR GLASSES AND THEIR CIGARS,

TALKING AND LAUGHING.

TALKING AND LAUGHING.

WHO IS SHE, THEN?

SHE'S DRUNK. SHE'S JUST
A DRUNKEN OLD BIDDY.

I MET HER AT THE ASSISTANCE.
SHE'S A MRS. ROSS.

10 QUID.

THAT'S RIGHT.
YES.

WELL, WHAT'D YOU
BRING HER UP HERE FOR?

SHE'LL HAVE THE POLICE
ON US IF WE TOUCH THIS.

OH, CREDIT ME WITH SOMETHING, WILL YOU?

I GIVE HER AEW DRINKS AND
BROUGHT HER HERE WHEN IT WAS DARK.

SHE COULDN'T FIND ME
NOR THIS STREET AGAIN.

ALL RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT.

SCARECROW LIKE THAT

GET 10 QUID FROM,
ANYWAY?

AT DO YOU CARE?

OH, THAT'S RIGHT. TAKE
THE LION'S BLOODY SHARE!

I DESERVE HALF, DON'T I? AFTER
ALL, I PAID FOR THE DRINKS.

I DESERVE HALF, DON'T I? AFTER
ALL, I PAID FOR THE DRINKS.

HEY, WHAT ABOUT US, MUM?

YEAH. WE WAS TO GET OUR
SHARE FOR FETCHING YOU.

YOU KNOW WHAT
YOU'LL GET, DON'T YOU?

DID YOU TAKE ALL
SHE'D GOT IN THE BAG?

NO. I LEFT HER
HER SILVER.

AFTER ALL, I DIDN'T WANT TO
LEAVE HER WITH NOTHING, DID I?

BIGHEARTED BELLA.

HERE. SEE WHAT'S LEFT.
SPLIT IT BETWEEN YOU.

HAS SHE GOT
AN ADDRESS IN THERE?

WHAT DO YOU WANT
HER ADDRESS FOR?

Boy: IS THIS IT, DAD?

WHAT DO YOU WANT
HER ADDRESS FOR?

WE GOT TO GET HER HOME,
HAVEN'T WE? AWAY FROM HERE.

SHE'S OUT
FOR THE NIGHT.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT WE CAN'T WALK
HER HOME THROUGH THE STREETS, CAN WE?

OH, SHUT UP, WILL YOU?

HERE. BORROW YOUR UNCLE BILLIE'S
HANDCART. BRING IT ROUND THE BACK.

YOU WANT YOUR BLOODY
HEAD EXAMINED, YOU DO.

AND BRING SOME SACKS.

YOU'VE JUST TALKED YOURSELF
OUT OF ANY MORE, YOU DID.

ANYBODY CAN TAKE IT. KEEPING IT
- THAT'S WHAT COUNTS.

GO ON. MAKE SOME TEA.
ABOUT ALL YOU'RE GOOD FOR.

FETCH A BRICK, SON.

WE'LL DUMP HER
UP HERE.

SHE CAN WALK
THE REST OF THE WAY.

Woman: WHAT'S THE TIME?

Man: HALF 7.

YOU SURE?

YES.

YOU LOOK IT UP
IN THE PAPER?

OH, NO.

I'LL TELL YOU
SOMETHING.

I'M NOT GOING TO WAIT
AROUND IF HE'S LATE AGAIN.

HARRY.

HARRY, COME HERE,
QUICK.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

DOWN THERE.

IS SHE DEAD?

I DON'T KNOW.

WHAT DO YOU THINK
WE OUGHT TO DO?

DON'T TOUCH HER.

DON'T TOUCH HER,
THAT'S FOR SURE.

ANY SIGN YET?

NO.

IT'LL BE
SOME TIME YET.

WELL, LET US KNOW.

CERTAINLY.

Man: EXCUSE ME, SIR.

WHAT'S SHE SIGNED HERSELF? "DAME
OF THE ORDER OF THE GARTER"?

YES. THAT'S NOTHING.
YOU SEE, SHE, UH...

OH, WELL, IT'S NOTHING.
IT CHANGES EVERY TIME.

I SEE.

I SUPPOSE... I SUPPOSE THE MONEY
MUST HAVE COME FROM HER SON.

HMM? OH, YES.

HAVE YOU FOUND HIM YET?

YES. HS INSIDE.

BUT YOU STILL NEED
TO TALK TO HER, DO YOU?

ELL, NOT REALLY, BUT IT
TIES UP THE LOOSE ENDS. W

I MEAN, THERE'S NO DOUBT WHO
DID IT. HE'SLREADY CONFESSED.

AN OLD FRIEND, HE IS.
THINKS THE WORLDOF HIS MUM.

ANY CHANGE YET,
DOCTOR?

WELL, RESPONNG, BUT NO
USE TO YOU, I'M AFRAID.

RIGHT. WELL, YOU'D BETTER
GIVE US A CALL, THEN, SISTER,

YOU KNOW, WHEN SHE'S READY. NO PANIC.

THANKS FOR
YOUR HELP, SIR.

I DON'T SUPPOSE THERE'S
ANYTHING I CAN DO, EITHER.

NO, NOT AT
THE MENT, SIR.

ARE YOU A RELATION?

NO. NO. I'M NOT
ANYTHING REALLY.

I JUST KNOW HER
FROM WORK.

IS SHE
GOING TO LIVE?

OH, YES...

WELL, RECOVER,
ALL WE SAY?

WELL, RECOVER,
ALL WE SAY?

LET'S JUST TRY IT
ONCE MORE.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

ROSS.

ROSS. THAT'S RIGHT,
ISN'T IT?

MARGARET ROSS.

MARGARET.

MARGARET.
SO YOUR WHOLE NAME IS...?

MARGARET ROSS.

MARGARET ROSS. THAT'S
EXCELLENT. EXCELLENT.

SHALL WE TRY IT
JUST ONCE MORE?

NOW, TRY AND GIVE ME
THE WHOLE NAME, WILL YOU?

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

MARGARET ROSS.

THAT'S VERY GOOD.
VERY GOOD INDEED.

SHE IS RESPONDING,
IS SHE?

RESPONDING ISN'T QUITE
THE TERM I'D USE.

DO YOU SMOKE?

YES. TNK YOU.

I'M SORRY.
I CAN'T OFFER YOU E.

RESPONDING, NO.

IT'S MORE OF A STRIPPING-DOWN
PROCESS, ACTUALLY.

IT'S A QUESTION OF...
HOW SHALL I PUT IT?

WELL, IT'S A QUESTION OF
TAKING OFF LAYER AFTER LAYER

OF OLD WALLPAPERS

UNTIL YOU GET DOWN
TO THE BARE PLASTER.

THERE'S A SAYING,
YOU KNOW:

STRIP OFF
THE PHONY TINSEL...

YOU GET DOWN TO THE REAL TINSEL
UNDERNEATH. SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

OH, BUT SHE'S, UH,

SHE'S MUCH SMARTER
THAN THE AVERAGE.

IT'S A VERY INTERESTING
CASE, ACTUALLY.

WELL, WHAT HAVE YOU
STRIPPED OFF HER SO FAR?

WELL, AS YOU KNOW,

SHE HAS QUITE A LOT OF
TITLES AND POSSESSIONS.

ONE HAS TO APPROACH IT
VERY GENTLY.

BUT GRADUALLY,
ONE BY ONE,

SHE'S YIELDING UP THE
HES OF PRIZE CATTLE

AND THE FLEETS
OF MERCHANT SHIPS.

TANKERS, WASN'T IT?

HMM?

TANKERS. I MUST SAY,
I HALF BELIEVED IN THEM.

YES. TODAY... WHERE
DID WE GET TODAY?

OH, YES. YES TODAY, WE
GOT THE BISHOP'S PALACE.

SHE'D BEEN THERE,
OF COURSE-

THERE'S ALWAYS
A GERM OF REALITY-

AS A DOMESTIC.

AND SO IT GOES ON,

UNTIL SHE FINDS OUT
WHO SHE TRULY IS

AND WHAT
SHE REALLY OWNS.

YES. THAT MUST BE
A VERY REWARDING MOMENT,

WHEN YOU TELL THE MRS. ROSSES
THAT THEY'RE NOBODY, NOTHING.

WE'VE ALSO MADE
SOME PROGRESS.

WE'VE TRACED THEUSBAND.

A GENTLEMAN
FROM THE ASSISTANCE BOARD

WANTS TO SEE YOU, ARCHIE.

WHY UP HERE? WHY NOT
DOWN IN THE HALL?

OH, WELL, IT'S A
PRIVATE MATTER, MR. ROSS.

I'D LIKE
TO SEE YOU ALONE.

OH. WELL,
GOOD MORNING, SIR.

I'M USUALLY OUT LOOKG FOR
WORK THIS TIME OF T DAY.

[COU COUGH

CAN'T TODAY BECAUSE OF
THE OLD CHEST, YOU KNOW.

THESE BOOTS,
THEY LET IN THE RAIN.

EXCUSE ME. I'LL TAKE MY
OLD RAGS OFF THIS CHAIR.

OH, THANK YOU.

WELL... CIGARETTE?

OH, THANK YOU, SIR.

OH, THANKS.

TA.

YOU'RE A MARRIED MAN,
AREN'T YOU, MR. ROSS?

WELL, IN A MANNER
OF SPEAKING.

PUT IT THIS WAY-
I COULD WELL BE.

I HAVEN'T SEEN THE LADY
WIFE FOR MANY YEARS.

SHE MIGHT BE DEAD,
FOR ALL I KNOW.

SHE'S NOT DEAD,
MR. ROSS.

ISN'T SHE?

NO. SHE'S BEEN VERY ILL,
BUT SHE'S GETTING BETTER.

YOU'RE SURE IT'S
MY WIFE YOU'VE GOT?

OH, YES, WE'RE SURE.
MARGARET ROSS, NEE SEATON,

ONE SON NAMED CHARLES.

CHARLIE. YES,
THAT'S RIGHT ENOUGH.

WHAT'S HAPPENED
TO HIM?

I'M SORRY TO S MY
INFORMATION IS HE'S IN PRISON.

IS HE, NOW?
WHAT FOR?

ROBBERY
WITH VIOLENCE.

SHE BECAME ILL ABOUT
THE TIME HE WAS ARRESTED.

HMM. NOT SURPRISED.

BUT SHE HAD
VERY GOOD ATTENTION.

SHE MADE
AN EXCELLENT RECOVERY.

I'M GLAD
TO HEAR THAT.

SHE WASN'T A BAD SOUL
WHEN I KNEW HER.

BIT OLDER THAN ME,
OF COURSE.

YOU, UH... EVER THOUGHT
OF GOING BK TO HER?

NO. NO. THERE'S
NO SENSE IN THAT.

THINK ABOUT IT.

A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE BECOME VERY
INTERESTED IN YOUR WIFE, MR. ROSS.

WHAT SORT OF PEOPLE?

OH, DOCTORS, SOCIAL WORKERS,
PUBLIC HEALTH VISITORS, ME.

SHE'S STILL YOUR LEGAL
RESPONSIBILITY, YOU KNOW.

IF YOU EVER DO GET A JOB,

YOU'LL BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR HER MAINTENANCE,

AND WE'LL BE
AFTER YOU FOR IT.

NOW WE'VE FOUND YOU.
WE CAN ALWAYS FIND YOU AGAIN.

WHY IS EVERYONE SO BLEEDIN'
INTERESTED ALL OF A SUDDEN

IN ME GOING BACK TO HER?

DID SHE ASK YOU
TO COME HERE?

NO. NO.
LOOK AT IT THIS WAY-

SHE'S GOT TO ASK ME.
I'VE GOT ME PRIDE, YOU KNOW.

LOOK, YOU'RE IN THIS
DUMP. SHE'S IN HOSPITAL.

BUT SHE'S GOT A FLAT TO
GO TO WHEN SHE COMES OUT.

SHE'S ON HER OWN.

YOU'RE NOT GETTING ANY
YOUNGER, EITHER OF YOU.

WE WERE ONLY
SUGGESTING THIS

FOR THE BENEFIT
OF BOTH OF YOU.

I DON'T KNOW...
I DON'T KNOW.

WHAT HAPPENED TO HER?

PNEUMONIA.

SUPPOSE I DID
GO BACK TO HER.

THERE ARE THINGS TO BE
WORKED OUT, YOU KNOW.

SUCH AS?

WELL, LIKE, UH,
HOW DO I GET THERE?

WE'LL GIVE YOU
A TRAVEL WARRANT.

WELL, IT ISN'T THAT
I MIND GOING BACK.

IT'S JUST THE APPEARANCE OF IT.

HOW DO YOU MEAN?

WELL, MY APPEARANCE.

I'M NOT EXACTLY
WEAVER-TO-WEARER, AM I?

I COULDN'T GO BACK
LIKE THIS.

I MEANTHAT WOULD PUT HER
RIGHT BACK IN HOSPITAL.

WE'LL FIX YOU UP WITH A
SUIT AND A PAIR OF BOOTS.

THAT'LL FETCH YOU UP A
BIT, WON'T IT, IN POUNDS?

LET ME PUT YOU
STRAIGHT,. ROSS.

YOU WON'T BE GIVEN
ANY MONEY.

I'LL SEE THE W.V.S.
AND THE SALVATION ARMY.

THEY'LL FIX YOU UP
BETWEEN THEM.

YOU MEAN CHARITY, SIR?
SOMEBODY'S CASTOFFS?

LISTEN, ROSS, I'VE SEEN YOU
CADGING COPPERS IN THE STREET.

YOU'RE A BUM, A DRUNK.

THE LAST TIME YOU TOOK
A JOB WAS 5 YEARS AGO,

AND YOU LEFT THAT
AFTER YOUR FIRST WAGE.

SO DON'T GIVE ME ANY GUFF
ABOUT BEING TOO PROUD

TO TAKE CLOTHES
FROM THE W.V.S.

I'LL SEE YOU GET KITTED UP,
BUT YOU'LL GET NO MONEY.

YOU UNDERSTAND?

HOW ABOUT SOME MONEY FOR
A RAZOBLADE AND A HAIRCUT?

I'LL NEED A MEAL
ON THE TRAIN.

GIVE ME A QUID
FOR THE LOT.

5 BOB. THAT'S FOR
THE SHAVE AND THE HAIRCUT.

YOU GET ANOTHER 5 BOB WHEN YOU GET
ON THE TRAIN, AND THAT'S YOUR LOT.

OK. I'LL MANAGE SOMEHOW.

RIGHT.

BIT OF A CHANGE,
ANYWAY.

WHAT'S SHE LOOK LIKE
NOWADAYS?

I DON'T KNOW. THEY DIDN'T
SEND ME A PHOTOGRAPH.

YOU'RE NOT GOING TO JUDG
A BEAUTY CONTEST, YOU KNOW.

YOU'RE JUST GOING HOME.

I BELIEVE YOU HAVEN'T SEEN
YOUR WIFE FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS.

THAT'S RIGHT, MA'AM.

SHE'S BEEN VERY ILL,
YOU KNOW.

SO THEY TOLD ME.
PNEUMONIA, WASN'T IT, MA'AM?

YES. SHE WAS
IN A VERY POOR WAY.

SERIOUS THING,
I BELIEVE,

WHEN THEY CATCH IT
IN THE HEAD.

WELL, SHE'S RESPONDED WELL
TO TREATMENT, BUT, UH,

A GREAT DEAL IS
GOING TO DEPEND ON YOU.

NOW, CAN YOU
BE RELIED ON?

WELL, I KNOW MY RECORD'S A BIT SPOTTY.

THERE'S NO SENSE IN
NOT BEING OPEN ABOUT IT.

BUT I'LL DO WHAT
I CAN TO MAKE UP.

WELL, DO MY BEST. I
CAN'T SAY MORE THAN THAT.

HOW ARE YOU OFF
FOR FUNDS?

MA'AM?

DID YOU GET ANY NATIONAL
ASSISTANCE ON ARRIVAL?

OH, YES, THEY TREATED ME VERY WELL.

GAVE ME 10 BOB.

I HAD A SHAVE
AND A SPRUCE

AND GOT MYSELF
A NEW HAT.

AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, I
WANT HER TO SEE ME AT MY BEST.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT,
OF COURSE.

WELL, I'M AFRAID WE DON'T
HAVE MUCH IN THE WAY OF FUNDS

FOR THIS SORT OF DISBURSEMENT,
BUT I'LL GIVE YOU A POUND.

THIS SHOULD TIDE YOU BOTH OVER
UNTIL YOU GET YOUR WIFE HOME,

AND THEN YOU CAN
SEE THEM AGAIN.

THANK YOU, MA'AM.
VERY GOOD OF YOU.

Almoner:

YOU'VE CHANGED,
I CAN TELL YOU THAT.

DIDN'T RECOGNIZE YOU IN THE
HOSPITAL. DIDN'T RECOGNIZE YOU.

IT'S ONLY NATURAL,
I SUPPOSE.

I WAS ILL.

WHAT DO YOU DO
ALL THE TIME?

I WAS ILL.

YES. I KNOW THAT.

I COLLECTED YOU
FROM THAT PLACE, DIDN'T I?

WELL, WHAT DO YOU DO?

DO YOU THINK ABOUT ME?

NEVER MIND.
DON'T UPSET YOURSELF.

YOU'RE ALL RIGHT NOW.

WELL, I THINK
I'LL TAKE A TURN OUT,

HAVE A LOOK ROUND,
FIND ME BEARINGS.

YOU'LL BE ALL RIGHT,
WON'T YOU?

YOU'LL BE ALL RIGHT?

I SHAN'T BE LONG.
I'LL TAKE THE KEY.

DON'T MAKE TOO MUCH NOISE
WHEN I'M OUT.

ARCHIE...

YES.

WHAT DO YOU FANCY?

THEY'RE NICE, AREN'T THEY?

I LIKE A FEW KIDNEYS

WHAT'S UP?

WELL, DON'T FRET.
IT COULD HAPPEN TO ANYBODY.

WELL, THINK. WHAT SHOPS

OR BETWEEN THERE

OH, YES.

OH, YES.

WELL, IF YOU'LL JUST SIT DOWN
OVER THERE FOR A FEW MOMENTS,

I'LL GO AND TELEPHONE
THE POLICE STATION,

JUST TO MAKE CERTAIN
THE MONEY

HASN'T TURNED UP
SINCE YOU WERE THERE.

YOU DO THAT.

YOU'LL HAVE TO GET UP
A LOT EARLIER FOR ARCHIE.

Woman: NEXT, PLEASE.

NURSE EDITH CAVELL WAS THE BIGGEST
SPY THIS COUNTRY'S EVER HAD.

OH, YES? WHO'D SHE
PLAY FOR THEN-CHELSEA?

Conrad: MR. ROSS.

WELL, IT HASN'T
TURNED UP.

OH, DEAR.

I DOUBT IF IT WILL.

NOW, BECAUSE YOUR WIFE'S BEEN ILL
AND BECAUSE I KNOW HER VERY WELL,

I'M GOING TO PAY YOU
THE POUND.

BUT I SHALL SEND SOMEONE
TO SEE HER TOMORROW.

I DON'T LIKE
PEOPLE LOSING MONEY.

IT'S A CARELESS
THING TO DO.

I WANT TO IMPRESS
ON MRS. ROSS

THAT SHE MUSTN'T
DO IT AGAIN.

VERY GOOD OF YOU, SIR.
I'LL TELL HER, TOO.

COURSE, IT'LL MAKE IT
MUCH EASIER

IF I'M LUCKY ENOUGH
TO GET A JOB.

WELL, I THINK
I CAN HELP THERE, TOO.

WE'VE GOT SOMETHING THAT
SHOULD BE RIGHT UP YOUR STREET.

WHEN YOU LEAVE HERE, GO
AND SEE THE VACANCIES CLERK.

HE'LL GIVE YOU A CARD,

YOU'RE AFRAID OF ME,
AREN'T YOU?

NO.

WHY DON'T YOU
TALK TO ME, THEN?

BLOODY CONVERSATION
NOW AND THEN?

GOT THINGS TO TALK
ABOUT, HAVEN'T YOU?

IT'S BLOODY RIDICULOUS
