treeduck Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 In the 70s The Sweeney was essential viewing! A true classic TV show! Any UK TRFers of a certain age will know what I'm talking about. If you haven't seen this show you've missed out BIG time! Get over to netflix or youtube right away! Here's a typical scene: Let me just say "...we're the Sweeney and we haven't had any dinner!" And: "Get your trousers on sunshine, you're nicked!!" Anyone else?

treeduck Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 "I hate this bastard place, it's a bloody holiday camp for thieves and weirdoes, all the rubbish. You nail a villain and some ponced up pin stripe Hampstead barrister screws it all up like an old gay packet and pops off for a game of squash and a glass of Madeira. He's taking home 30 grand a year and we can just about afford 10 days in Eastbourne and a second hand car. Nah, it's all bloody wrong, my son."

treeduck Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 "I am utterly and abjectly pissed-off with this little lot. I've given the best years of my life to the job. I've got eighteen bloody commendations, if you include the one I didn't get yesterday. And how does this 'wonderful' police force show its gratitude for all my years of unstinting effort? It bangs me up in a crummy little cell like some cheap little villain - all because a toerag called Hutchinson's got a few bottles twitching on the Fifth Floor. Now, because that poor little bastard had the guts to get off his arse, I'm going to have to be reinstated. And what do you bunch of bleeding double-dyed hypocrites want now? You want me to crawl back to work and be terribly grateful that I didn't get nicked for something I didn't do. Well you can stuff it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 "The hairs on my wooden leg tell me that something is up." "You couldn't find an Irishman in a Harp Club." "He's a weirdo and he's hard enough to rollerskate on." "If you weren't who you are, I'd kick your arse up to your shoulderblades." "Now the question is: do I write my statement and then get drunk, or get drunk then write it?" "Nah, course I wasn't scared. Mind you, some bugger peed in my pants."
