Three Men in a Boat Page #3

seemed to infuriate the mob.

They told him to...

Go and curl your hair with it!

- And to...

- Go and stuff it!

...away somewhere.

(ALL SHOUTING)

Evidently, it happens all the time.

- It really is an awfully good maze.

- Mmm.

We must try and get George into it

on the way back.

Good idea.

- Incidentally...

- Mmm?

I'm quite willing to let you

scull for a bit if you want to.

Don't want to be selfish about it.

(JEROME CHUCKLING)

- HARRIS:
Put in here a while, J.

- Here? Why?

It's Hampton Church,

I want to see Mrs Thomas' tomb.

Who's Mrs Thomas?

How should I know? She's just a lady

who has a funny tomb.

I know it's supposed to be

the proper thing to do

every time you see a church,

to rush off and enjoy the graves.

I don't hold with it

as a form of recreation.

Anyway, we haven't got time.

HARRIS:
I have looked forward

to seeing Mrs Thomas' tomb

since the moment this trip was proposed.

In fact, I wouldn't have come but for

the thought of seeing Mrs Thomas' tomb.

JEROME:
This is just

morbid extravagance. I'm sorry.

Well, what about the scold's bridle

at Walton Church?

I must see the scold's bridle.

JEROME:
We have to get the boat up to

Shepperton by teatime to meet George.

Oh, hang George!

Why couldn't he get the day off?

What use is a bank anyway?

They take all your money

and when you want to write a cheque

it's referred to drawer.

Damn nerve!

I'm going to withdraw my account.

I'm going to get out and have a drink.

- There's some lemonade in the hamper.

- I said a drink!

Not your Sunday school slops,

lemonade, raspberry syrup...

- That poison! Dandelion and burdock...

- Pull on your line.

...ginger beer. If you ask me,

they ruin body and soul

and are responsible

for half the crime in England.

- Pull on your line!

- I'm pulling.

(MONTMORENCY BARKING)

The other one.

I say, though.

This is the life, isn't it?

Rather.

- Sorry if I was a bit touchy back there.

- Touchy? When?

Wasn't I a bit touchy

about George and Mrs Thomas?

Were you? I didn't notice.

Very kind of you

to concern yourself, though.

Not at all. Good egg.

(INHALES DEEPLY)

Who's this?

Do you know you gents are trespassing?

What does he say?

He wants to know

if we know we're trespassing.

I'm not sure I've given the matter

sufficient consideration.

We haven't given the matter

sufficient consideration.

But if you give us your assurance

that we are indeed trespassing,

we would without hesitation believe it.

Well, I tell you, you are trespassing.

- He says we are.

- Ah.

- Thank you.

- Thank you very much.

I'm supposed to throw you off!

What does he say?

He says it's his duty to throw us off.

Oh, well, if it's his duty,
