You want a graphic description, do you?
A blow-by-blow account?

:50:06
I say, when I think of all those skirts
and petticoats and things...

:50:15
it's the sort of thing you used to do
when I first met you.

:50:18
In that club in Notting Hill Gate.
:50:20
And I remember how you used
to go clomping around without a bra.

:50:24
Hitting girls over the head.
:50:26
Lovely.
:50:28
Kindly keep your foul-mouthed recollections
to yourself.

:50:32
And remember who pays the rent here.
:50:34
Not for much longer, perhaps.
:50:35
Did she say something, then?
:50:37
No, I don't think so. Nothing in particular.
:50:40
No, she doesn't bloody well have to.
Not with this.

:50:43
Why? What does it say?
:50:46
None of the other characters have ever come
near me in the popularity ratings.

:50:51
And now this idiot Leo Lockhart...
:50:54
who got the sack from Stratford-on-Avon
after six months of carrying a spear about...

:50:58
and creeps around saying to everybody:
:51:01
"I gave up my career in the theatre,
you know...

:51:04
"because I found the television medium
so very interesting."

:51:08
- What's he done now?
- Now?

:51:11
Now he's succeeded. Look.
:51:14
"Sister George: 64.5."
:51:17
"Ginger Hodgkins: 68."
:51:20
Bastard.
:51:21
But you remember this:
:51:22
- Two wrongs don't make a right.
- You're right.

:51:25
- Where there's a will, there's a way.
- I know.

:51:27
As long as I am the chairman
of the darts committee...

:51:29
you won't be dropped from the team
without a fair hearing.

:51:32
Now off you get home,
and we'll talk about it tonight.

:51:35
- Cue end titles.
- You're a pal.

:51:38
- Don't mention it.
- All right, cut.

:51:43
We're rehearsing, ladies and gentlemen.
Move about quietly, please.

:51:46
That was wonderful, children.
A thing of beauty.

:51:49
If you'll gather around the table
we'll read through the next installments...

:51:52
while we've got our worthy scriptwriters
with us.

:51:55
Mildred, hand the scripts out, will you?
There's a dear.

:51:57
- Have a cigar, old chap. You deserve it.
- Thank you.
