as Bethnal Green.

No pubs, no jobs.

There isn't. Not till tomorrow.

Present for a bad girl.

Tommy!

Oh, Tommy.

Do you really mean it?

I've got to go up north tomorrow,

on business.

Soon as I get back, eh?

Oh, dear. Is that the taxi already?

I'm afraid not, Rose.

- What's the matter, Guv?

- It's Tommy Swann.

He's been arrested.

- What do you mean, arrested?

- Smash-and-grab raid.

They caught him in Manchester.

What's for breakfast?

Haddock.

Cannot be purchased under

ten guineas. I'll take nine guineas.

I'll take eight guineas.

I'll take three pound.

I'll take 45 shillings...

Here we've got

a nice one for a lady going away.

I tell you what I've got. I've got

a big size for a lady coming back.

Outsize? I've got one 'ere with

charabanc fittings, Mrs Woman.

Any gentleman that loves his wife,

loves every acre of her.

Now, there's a cracker...

Now, ladies and gentlemen,

I've got the finest selection

in Petticoat Lane Market...

The last one!

I've got another last one.

And this is the other last one...

- Hiya, Sarge.

- Hello, Slopey.

Looking for bargains?

Or Tommy Swann?

- Tommy Swann? Who's he?

- Give yourself a break.

This isn't the usual

police court stuff.

Front-page interview, I want.

Thanks very much.

The last time I was on the front

page of "The East London Courier"

was when Nick Henderson

got damages for wrongful arrest.

Mazel tov...

Ladies and gentlemen,

dusters that you can't buy

anywhere else in the world.

And the price,

ladies and gentlemen,

comes in the region

of every working man...

- Morning, Mrs Wallis.

- Morning, Mr Fothergill.

Want a pair of nylons for the wife?

Guaranteed stolen goods.

Not today. It's about an old friend

of yours, Tommy Swann.

Smart boy, Tommy.

First he gets away from me,

then he gets away from Dartmoor.

It's my duty to remind you that,

if you see him, you're to report it.

Don't worry, I'd shop Tommy Swann

as soon as kiss your hand.

Good girl.

Mm. Governor of

the Duke Of Teck won a badge.

I beat him when they came

and played us in the league.

19, 12, double top, I finished.

You and your darts.

- Any errand you want done, Dad?

- What are you after now?

I want to earn another two shillings

to buy a mouth organ with.

- You think I'm made of money?

- Bertie Potts is going to buy one.

Nothing doing. You make enough

noise with your mouth!

We'll have to find something

to cover that up with.

Vi, what did we do

with the blackout stuff?

- It's in the Anderson.

- Go and get me a bit of it.

Can't. My nails aren't dry.

Tarting yourself up

to meet your boyfriends!

Nice way to spend

a Sunday morning!

It's all right. It's me.

He first worked in the film business in 1926 writing subtitles for silent films. He then began writing his own scenarios for Gaumont British Studios and later Ealing Studios under Sir Michael Balcon.
