The Security Men Page #4

Synopsis: Duckers, Jimmy and Ray are three work-shy security guards at a shopping mall who spend much of their time mocking their Jobsworth boss Kenneth. One night they bunk off to watch and bet on a boxing match at the electrical shop, only to find on their return that the mall's jewellers has been robbed. To save face - and their jobs - they bring in computer ace Rhys to help concoct a new CCTV film in which two of them pose as robbers and the other two pursue them but lose them. It looks very genuine but P.C. Greaves has his doubts. Can they get away with it?

It wasn't my idea. I just went

along with it. A very sad day.

Sorry, Kenneth. We just wanted to

watch Amir Khan. Bite him!

Come on, Khan, come on!

He's knocking the shite out of him,

Kenneth.

Come on, come on!

What round is it? It's the last

round. It's nearly over.

He's got him, he's got him.

Come on! Use your left!

Cracking fight, that.

Cheers, Kenneth.

Thanks, Kenneth.

Yeah, thanks, Kenneth.

Well, you have to know when to bend

the rules sometimes.

I used to do a bit of boxing myself

as a young man. Yeah?

Were you a biter, Kenneth?

I were a biter.

No, jab man.

Keep 'em back with a jab.

Now then, we'd better get

those alarms back on.

Hey, I didn't hear that!

You didn't set the alarm

properly down there, you clown.

I did. I definitely did.

Hang on a minute, that's not

Electrical Land. That's Denbys.

Denbys High Class Jewellery

and Precision Watches.

Rewind the tape.

Oh, Jesus Christ.

The robbing whores.

Why did we leave our posts?

Jimmy, go down there

and check it out.

Twenty-five years unblemished service

up in smoke.

Come on, Kenneth,

this wasn't down to you.

Yes, I suppose we're partly

to blame, too. In a way.

I'm just glad my mother's senile.

We'd never have caught them.

There's two of them.

There's only four of us.

'I'm down here now.'

What can you see, Jim?

'I'm just going inside.

Over. Roger.

I'm in the shop now.'

And?

'There's been a robbery.'

Bloody hell, Jim!

What have they taken?

'Every fecking thing

by the looks of it.'

OK, come back up here and we'll work

out what to do next.

'Copy that.

Wait. What's this?

There's a lovely looking watch

they've dropped on the floor.

It's a... rol... dex.'

Don't even think about it, Jimmy.

We can draw straws for that later.

We certainly will not.

Well, there's nothing else for it.

I shall have to send Mr Lomas a memo

tendering my immediate resignation.

No, there's got to be a way

out of this, Kenneth.

Yes, with all due respect,

with the best will in the world,

it's no good YOU just resigning.

We're all in this sh*t.

And where are we gonna find another

job that's mainly sleeping?

The only way out of this

is for me to fall on my sword.

Look, let's think about this

logically.

What we need is a reason

why we never tried to stop 'em.

Because we were watching the boxing.

We know that.

Hey, why don't we blindfold

ourselves and tie ourselves up?

Grow up.

They've cleaned the place out.

There's nothing left there.

What time is it now?

Put that back.

Yeah, put that back.

I'm just minding it until the

police get here. Keeping it safe.

Why don't we wipe the video tape and

they'll never know what happened.

Actually, that's not a bad idea.
