:22:06
I've come to give you
a present.

:22:11
How nice.
:22:13
To me, this represents
everything that is wrong...

:22:15
and everything that is vile
with this profession.

:22:18
- Really?
- It is the reason I'm resigning.

:22:21
- What's upset you about it?
- The hypocrisy it represents.

:22:25
- It was never used.
- Not it... mine.

:22:28
I believed in it, and I sat back
like some idiot while they buggered it.

:22:32
- I should have resigned then.
- I see.

:22:35
I don't approve of its rejection.
I can no longer tolerate it.

:22:38
I don't approve of Her Majesty's
government's cynical bit of twaddle...

:22:42
that smoking can seriously damage
your health as any kind of alternative.

:22:45
I wouldn't have thought
anyone was arguing about that.

:22:48
Precisely. Nobody's arguing about it,
especially the government.

:22:52
The only fucker this ever frightened
was the chancellor of the exchequer.

:22:55
But I'm going to argue about it.
I'm going to shout about it!

:22:58
- I wouldn't do that, old chap.
- Can damage your health?

:23:01
What's "can" got to do with it?
Can, could, might, possibly, maybe.

:23:05
"Does" is the word
we want to hear.

:23:07
The bastards are killing
100.000 a year.

:23:10
Warning by Her Majesty's
government:

:23:12
"This product contains
highly-toxic carcinogenic poisons.

:23:16
"Avoid all contact.
Do not inhale.

:23:19
Should inhalation occur,
seek immediate advice from a physician."

:23:22
I saw Harry yesterday. He said
you had problems with the pimple cream.

:23:27
Did he?
Well. He's wrong.

:23:29
Because I have irradicated
the pimple cream from my life.

:23:32
He also said you lost your temper
with some photographs.

:23:34
That's right.
Closeups of hives.

:23:36
Don't you think the way you reacted
could be considered irrational?

:23:40
Don't start the old irrational
ballocks with me, Bristol!

:23:43
I'm up to here with it.
I know everything about rationality,

:23:47
and I know everything there is
to know about advertising.

:23:50
- Hold them, Sheila.
- So don't tell me I'm being irrational.

:23:53
Because I'm the one who's take
the stench out of everything but shit.

:23:59
Okay, old chap, why don't
you take some time off?
