00:30Come along with me, the night has opened up it's eyes to see days, a thousand moving just
00:45as one, a feeling that's so certain, that when this day is done, the paper marks will
00:56come with the dawn casting light on the play, acting it out in our own special way,
01:03making our entrance and reading the lines, the story of people who live by the time.
01:18Oh come on Willie, you should have gone by now.
01:20People want their papers in the morning you know, they don't want it at night.
01:24Oh hey, I nearly forgot.
01:27You nearly forgot what?
01:28Mrs Rutledge says to tell you that they'll be on holiday from tomorrow on.
01:32Does that mean they want their Sunday papers tomorrow or not?
01:36What good's half a message?
01:38What's her number again?
01:3920 Nutley Avenue.
01:4120 Nutley Avenue.
01:46Billy Dobson says his mum doubted taking him to France.
01:48When for heaven's sake?
01:51Oh not for another week yet.
01:52Oh, I'd like to go to France.
01:55Why?
01:55It's just strictly be with an accent.
01:57Next weekend you say?
01:59Yeah.
02:00Well go on then you lot.
02:01We're going.
02:07Bye Mrs Crawford.
02:08Go on Evel.
02:22So we're agreed that it's Billy Pryor.
02:30All we've got to do now is get a message to him right?
02:33Hey you two come here.
02:36Never mind that now.
02:37Trevor Harrison's broke his leg.
02:39So we've got a league match this afternoon.
02:41We're a man short.
02:42Well do a look at me.
02:43He said a man.
02:44Do us a favor will you?
02:45Go nip down the shipyard and get word to Billy Pryor on the shore gang.
02:48We'll go in a bold man to see the whipperies.
02:50It'll only take a few minutes and your dad will let you in through the gate Gog.
02:52We said we'd find someone Ian.
02:54If we lose this afternoon we're out of the league altogether.
02:58All right but I'm finding Ian first.
03:00I promised.
03:00Just so long as Billy gets that message.
03:02Now go on.
03:02Hurry up.
03:03Expect Sal to be on the field now with the dog.
03:05Bye.
04:20Bye.
04:50Ian?
04:52Ian where are you?
04:54Come on it's no time for games.
04:56Gog.
04:58Over here.
05:00What's up man?
05:02Come here man.
05:04What are you on about?
05:06Shut up man.
05:08What are you on about?
05:10I just sort of found her.
05:12So who is she?
05:14Trust you now we'll never get the ball.
05:16We can't just leave her.
05:18And why not?
05:20We'll catch her and she'll tell them we found her first and didn't out.
05:22No way I'm going to get rid of her.
05:24They'll send her back to wherever she came from man.
05:26If she's an illegal immigrant.
05:28For all we know she might just be taking her home on his bait box.
05:30Why is she hiding?
05:32And she's scared.
05:36It's all right we're not going to hurt you.
05:40You know speaky English.
05:44Great.
05:46Me.
05:48Gog.
05:50Him.
05:52Ian.
05:54Ian.
06:00Devinder.
06:02Basi.
06:04Kua. Jalanda.
06:06India?
06:08I didn't think she was Chinese.
06:10She's got a brother.
06:12Doctor Kamal Basi Singh.
06:1422 archway meet Birmingham.
06:16She's a long way from Birmingham.
06:18Oh that's not where she comes from you twit.
06:20That's where she wants to go to.
06:22But if this brother of hers is a doctor.
06:24She'll be able to help her.
06:26All right mastermind.
06:28But just how do I get her to Birmingham?
06:30First thing is to get away from here.
06:32Straight through the main gates dressed like that.
06:34Wait here and don't let her get away.
06:36But.
06:44So.
06:58So far so good.
07:00Yeah but now what?
07:02Come on.
07:06Well George no need for you to hang about.
07:08I've got the idea I can pass the message on.
07:10Sorry Jack but the inspector was quite firm.
07:12And he's right in a way.
07:14The uniform does add weight to an exercise like this.
07:18Oi.
07:20Where have you two been?
07:22Never mind the excuses.
07:24Sergeant Bell here is wanting a word.
07:26And he's been waiting for long enough.
07:28And we're here.
07:36What's up then?
07:38Oh just routine son. A warning.
07:40I don't know what we're doing.
07:42Got a guilty conscience have you?
07:44No.
07:46I'm glad to hear it.
07:48Look can you get to the point George.
07:50It's past closing up time.
07:52Now listen carefully.
07:54It's holiday time.
07:56People go away and leave their houses empty.
07:58An invitation to every light-fingered
08:00tail-leaf in the district.
08:02Now you lads and you Sam.
08:04You're in a position of trust.
08:06People have to tell you when they're going away
08:08In those early months we had over 200 break-ins.
08:10And a lot of the time
08:12the thieves picked up their information
08:14from milk depots
08:16and paper shops.
08:18But why would you want to tell anybody?
08:20I'm not saying on purpose Sam.
08:22But you might say something to your Dad
08:24or your Grandad Mickey.
08:26They mention it down at the pub
08:28and at the next table the lugs start to flap.
08:30Do you understand?
08:32I suppose so.
08:34Right. That it Sergeant.
08:36That's all. Thanks for the time
08:38and the tea. Good night.
08:42Right. Come on. Get off the lot of you.
08:44Or you'll all be after overtime.
08:52I hear you two didn't make it to Bolton after all.
08:54Changed my mind.
08:56Where did you go?
08:58Good film was it Ian?
09:00It was alright.
09:02Did we win Gog?
09:04Jack. All these questions.
09:06Sorry Jack. I've just run out of fags.
09:08You too. Thanks for fetching Billy Pryor.
09:10It's alright.
09:12You didn't take much interest in the match did you?
09:14So what did I say?
09:16They were down the club this afternoon.
09:18Best part of it. Both of them?
09:20Yeah. Hanging about. Whole afternoon?
09:22Yeah. I mean I wasn't keeping tabs late.
09:24Thanks.
09:26It's alright Ted.
09:30Ah.
09:32I'll get them.
09:34Could be wrong.
09:36Yeah could be.
09:38Alright lads. That's it. Looking up time.
09:40Good night.
09:52It is a bit late for you two isn't it?
09:54My dad's on shift tonight.
09:56His mum's down the bingo.
09:58What about you? What happened to them?
10:00I'm just going to check there's nobody in the showers
10:02then I'm locking up so you'll have to haul in somewhere else won't you?
10:20Psst. It's only us.
10:22Best hurry up.
10:30Soup.
10:34Hot soup.
10:42Alright then hurry. Good night.
11:00Good night.
11:02Good night.
11:28He's locked us in.
11:30Shh.
11:32It's alright. He's gone.
11:42Nearly died when I saw that flask.
11:44Quick the lights.
12:00Putties.
12:12It's only cheese. It's all I could find.
12:14It's got bars.
12:22Milco. See?
12:24See?
12:30It might be a bit big. It's me mum's.
12:32It might get cold in the night.
12:34Brrrr.
12:52OK it's a bit loose.
12:56Birmingham.
12:58Birmingham.
13:02Your brother.
13:06Do you want to be here all night?
13:10El Dator.
13:14Archway Mead.
13:18Birmingham.
13:22Your brother.
13:26Me Telefono, see?
13:30Well, are you going to give us a hand or not?
13:34All right.
13:38Thanks.
13:42Bye.
14:06Sam.
14:10You know, if the Rutledges want their papers for the train journey...
14:14Why anybody wants to take the news on holiday with them beats me.
14:18Yours not the reason why, Sam. Just get a move on. Remember, the customer's always right.
14:22Where the devil have you got to?
14:26I didn't come to the weather races either.
14:30If you ask me, they're up to something.
14:34Got a guilty conscience, have you?
14:38Do you really believe that, Jack?
14:42Give them something to think about, won't you?
14:46Well, it's nice to see you too.
14:54Hello, Direct Enquiries.
14:58Can I have the number for Dr Kamal Basi Singh, 22 Archway Mead, Birmingham?
15:02Right, thanks.
15:06Got a pencil?
15:12Yeah.
15:16Yeah. Right, thanks.
15:36Thanks.
16:06Thanks.
16:36Is there a funeral then?
16:40He must have somewhere to go to have done it around that fast.
16:44He's not boxing.
16:48He'll hardly have got himself started, I shouldn't think.
16:52Tempest to buy, tempest to look.
17:06Tempest to buy.
17:36You after a gold medal and all?
17:40Here I just hope the pair of you haven't made any mistakes.
17:44You know what they say about...
17:48Jack?
17:52Jack? What?
17:56Stir your stumpsom off out. Out? Now where?
18:00What you do and all, not hurt.
18:04Hello? Mr Crawford?
18:08It's me, Sam. There's something funny going on.
18:12Do you know either of them?
18:16Now listen, Sam, you do nothing. Keep out of their way, understand?
18:20I'll call the police.
18:24I'll call the police.
18:54Right, let's go, you piece of cake.
19:19You're a jitter, I'm a...
19:21Too easy.
19:23You'll never know.
19:25Hello?
19:27Don't panic, don't say anything.
19:29I'm learning it.
19:31Oh, Jesus.
19:43You all right, sir?
19:49Get your backs into it, come on.
19:51Come on, Gordon, you'll get stuck in.
19:53You're the biggest and the softest.
19:55One, two...
19:57What did he say?
19:59Fancy going out the window again?
20:01In broad daylight, he must be joking.
20:03The window, I haven't noticed already.
20:05What's the matter with you?
20:07Walk off at dinner time, I hope.
20:09What, he sound like this brother of hers?
20:11Scared to death.
20:13He said he'd be here in a few hours.
20:15Come on, lads, let's go out and show him.
20:19Let's go.
20:23I can see it looks bad, George.
20:25Chances are the villain's watched the Rutledgers leave.
20:27But more important,
20:29they knew in advance to be there.
20:31It's all right, it's only us.
20:33Now then, just what are you two playing at?
20:41He's coming, George.
20:45Hello, Mr Crawford.
20:47Hello.
20:51Is something wrong?
20:55We nicked your brother again a while back, son.
20:57What's it got to do with me?
20:59According to him, quite a lot.
21:01He told you?
21:03The works. How you tip him off when the house will be empty.
21:05How much he gives you.
21:07A number of other offences.
21:09You're in a bit of bother, lad.
21:11Now, the best thing you can do
21:13is to come down with me to the station
21:15and make a clean breast of it.
21:17Will you go back inside?
21:19Oh, what do you think?
21:21Do you want to end up like him, Neville?
21:23I'd rather be like him than you anyway.
21:25Oh, you paper lads, what are they ever good for?
21:27We'll ask Mr Rutledge that question
21:29when he gets back off his holidays.
21:31Come on.
21:33That's not what you'll get when your mam finds out.
21:35Come on.
21:41Cheers, George.
21:45Did Neville's brother really split under Mr Crawford?
21:47I doubt it, Sam.
21:49But Sergeant Belsey...
21:51That's the oldest gag in the book.
21:53Divide, confuse and conquer.
21:55George just used a bit of that.
21:57So,
21:59whose daft idea was it?
22:03Well, if you'll not tell me,
22:05the police will want to know.
22:07And the immigration people.
22:09And how long has she been hiding in that thing?
22:11Just last night.
22:13Last night?
22:15Why on earth didn't you telephone
22:17that brother of hers straight away?
22:19I tried. I couldn't get through till this morning.
22:21And he's coming here?
22:23Yeah.
22:25Poor Ben.
22:27She looks half-starved and terrified.
22:29Go on, go and ask Mr Robson
22:31if you tell that doctor chap
22:33to go straight to the shop the minute he arrives.
22:37What about till then?
22:39Eh, well.
22:41I don't suppose they'll hang us
22:43if a waitress has had a decent meal and a cup of tea
22:45before calling the police in.
22:47The police?
22:49By then a brother will be here and she'll be his responsibility.
22:51Well, ask Mr Crawford
22:53exactly how many laws
22:55you and Gog have broken.
22:57Just pray he's in the mood to give you the right answers
22:59before the police start
23:01asking you the questions.
23:03Come on. Jump down.
23:05You, fetch that lot.
23:11Thank you.
23:13And don't worry.
23:15I'm sure your brother will be able to sort something out.
23:27What on earth?
23:29Don't ask the question till you're sure you want to know the answer.
23:31Yes, but...
23:33No buts after dinner.
23:35Yeah. Does she eat Sunday dinner, do you think?
23:37I don't know. Shall I ask her?
23:39Uh-huh.
23:41And you wouldn't know the Indian for Yorkshire pudding.
23:43Oh. Come on.
23:51Well, perhaps you two can tell me what's going on.
24:01I call them once again
24:05The streets have seemed so long
24:07They're waking now
24:11Your job is done
24:15The night has opened up its eyes
24:17To see day
24:21The city's reading every line
24:25But while it sleeps you're working
24:27The world is just your home
24:31For paper lads alone
24:37You
