However, he has friends who do more than stand by -- they kidnap the wife's French lover and hold him prisoner so that Colin can restore his manhood with revenge. A kangaroo court takes place and as the situation escalates Loverboy's life hangs in the balance as Colin wrestles with revenge, remorse, grief and self pity, all the while egged on by his motley crew of friends who just want him to get on with it so they can get down the pub.

"Poor Colin.

He's pathetic. "

You can say it.

I can take it.

Well, you can all f*** off.

Sling your dirty hooks.

Sorry to have inconvenienced you

and all that,

but uour services

are no longer required.

Snakes.

Laughing at me.

I might look like a c*nt,

but I'm not f***ing stupid.

- No, it's her

that's stupid, Col.

It's Liz.

- What do you know about her?

What do you know about

what it means

to be f***ing married?

You still live

with your f***ing mum.

- Oi.

- This is why Loverboy

must be killed.

This is why she must be killed.

Do this to a man?

Jesus f***ing Christ almighty.

Fire and f***ing sword.

It's unforgivable.

De-f***ing-plorable.

Look at the man.

Where is he?

Look at him.

He ain't there.

Someone else.

F***ing shell that is,

if that,

sad, empty shell.

Hurts your f***ing eyes.

Can hardly look at him.

Make you weep.

Oh, mother of God,

theu will suffer.

Oh, yeah, they will suffer.

That is my promise.

They will f***ing suffer.

- I'm sorry, Arch.

I don't know what I'm saying.

I'm cracking up, mate.

- That's all right, mate.

Forget about it.

It's understandable.

- Here, Colin,

this'll cheer you up.

Have a guess

how much I won last night.

- F***ing suffer.

- Have a guess.

- How much you win?

- Well,

when I left here last night,

I was buzzing.

I was on my way to

the Buckingham for a quick one.

None of you wet willies

wanted to come.

And guess who

I bumped into.

- Meredith!

- Tippi Gordon...

- Off his f***ing face,

pumping, zooming.

Pupils the size of a sixpence.

both:
You up for it?

Are you with me?

Night of it, beauty boy?

You up for it?

Boys' night out?

- He was on his way

to the Grenadier,

invites me along.

both:
I like a line the size

of a f***ing Toblerone.

Oi, bumface, here you are.

- Get your nose

stuck into that.

- Go on, then.

What'd you win?

- 40,600 is what I won.

- F***ing hell.

- F*** me.

- How?

- Well...

We were f***ing about.

So I bet Tippo five grand

he can't win

six grand in a minute.

- I f***ing can.

- Go on, then.

Smacks six thou down

on the black.

both:
Red, c*nt.

Double or quits.

- He bets black.

- Black! Come on!

Come on, you c*nt!

Come on, come on, come on,

black.

Come on, then, red.

God!

both:
Double or quits twice.

- Bets black.

- Come on.

Come on.

Black! Black!

Come on!

both:
Red, c*nt.

Double or quits.

- For the third time.

Only this time,

he bets red.

- Now, come on, come on.

Come on, come on, come on!

Come on, oh, yeah, yeah.

Come on.

Black!

- C*nt, c*nt.

- Meredith.

- "You are a c*nt.

"Here's your 40,000.

Thank you very much.

See ua. "

Well, for a giggle,

I've had 400

on the pontoon table.
