At 00:02:18,639, Character said: Oh, right on time.
What'll you have to drink?

2
At 00:02:20,807, Character said: - Tomato juice, please.
- You're looking very well, Charlie.

3
At 00:02:23,644, Character said: You look younger now
than when we first met.

4
At 00:02:25,354, Character said: - He's putting weight on.
- Looks good on him.

5
At 00:02:27,814, Character said: I've removed a lot of weight lately.

6
At 00:02:30,108, Character said: While I remember, Charlie, there's
those tickets for tomorrow's game.

7
At 00:02:33,570, Character said: Oh, thanks.

8
At 00:02:37,032, Character said: - What's special today?
- Roast beef, sir.

9
At 00:02:40,911, Character said: Well, what about that?
Shall we say three?

10
At 00:02:42,579, Character said: - I think so.
- Charlie?

11
At 00:02:43,622, Character said: - Yeah, sure.
- Another drink for you?

12
At 00:02:44,790, Character said: - Three roast beef.
- Anything to begin with, sir?

13
At 00:02:47,042, Character said: - Charlie?
- No, just the beef.

14
At 00:02:48,627, Character said: Artichoke. Are you having
another drink before we go in?

15
At 00:02:50,754, Character said: Just a dry sherry. Thank you.

16
At 00:02:52,422, Character said: Well, that's an artichoke,
half a lobster for me,

17
At 00:02:54,716, Character said: nothing for Mr Bubbles and three
roast beefs. Medium rare for all.

18
At 00:02:57,135, Character said: A large dry sherry
and another vodka and tonic for me.

19
At 00:02:59,805, Character said: Roast potatoes,
boiled potatoes, vegetables?

20
At 00:03:02,265, Character said: Yes, and a green salad.

21
At 00:03:06,520, Character said: Under Section 73,
all profits up to 60%

22
At 00:03:09,773, Character said: not declared as a dividend
after the 40% corporation tax

23
At 00:03:12,859, Character said: are taxable as super tax unless
the monies are shown to be committed.

24
At 00:03:15,737, Character said: Now, let me explain that more fully.

25
At 00:03:17,948, Character said: Before April the 6th, 1966,
this was covered by Section 245,

26
At 00:03:21,576, Character said: under which the company did
not have to declare a dividend,

27
At 00:03:24,371, Character said: which meant the profits
could be left in the company,

28
At 00:03:26,248, Character said: and the shareholders are not
burdened with the dividend.

29
At 00:03:28,125, Character said: But now under Section 73,
we must eliminate the profits

30
At 00:03:30,836, Character said: by reinvesting company monies in enterprises
for which the company was formed,

31
At 00:03:34,464, Character said: according to the company articles,

32
At 00:03:36,466, Character said: i.e., we must commit the company
money in some kind of production.

33
At 00:03:39,219, Character said: You see, really it's a question
of these monies being committed

34
At 00:03:41,513, Character said: on paper by the end of the year.

35
At 00:03:43,473, Character said: For instance, if there's a book
that you're interested in buying

36
At 00:03:45,684, Character said: with a view to turning it
into a film,

37
At 00:03:47,436, Character said: some of the profits are paid in
escrow to the people concerned,

38
At 00:03:50,480, Character said: i.e., you could place so many
thousand pounds with a writer's agent

39
At 00:03:54,192, Character said: as a sign of your interest and good faith
and seriousness as far as the project goes.

40
At 00:03:58,530, Character said: Well, if that transfer of the monies is
off the books and into the bank, fine.

41
At 00:04:03,618, Character said: That means that we're in business.

42
At 00:04:05,579, Character said: We must have a movement
of the money off the books.

43
At 00:04:10,250, Character said: I've been thinking about
the alimony I pay Lottie.

44
At 00:04:12,294, Character said: Do you think that
it ought to be increased?

45
At 00:04:14,504, Character said: She receives
a very generous allowance.

46
At 00:04:16,214, Character said: I know, but the sum was fixed a few years ago
when I wasn't earning as much as I ** now.

47
At 00:04:20,969, Character said: You did buy the house. Your son's well
provided for in all eventualities.

48
At 00:04:24,598, Character said: It's entirely up to you.

49
At 00:04:26,141, Character said: We can discuss it any time you like.
Just ring the office and fix a date.

50
At 00:04:29,227, Character said: After all, it's your money, Charlie.

51
At 00:04:31,813, Character said: How's that new stockbroker I found?

52
At 00:04:33,607, Character said: He's very good. As you know,
I wasn't too happy about using him.

53
At 00:04:36,985, Character said: I preferred my own man.
This one's excellent. Extremely capable.

54
At 00:04:39,905, Character said: At the moment,
it's all short-term investments.

55
At 00:04:42,073, Character said: Long-term investments are too
unpredictable at the moment.

56
At 00:04:45,619, Character said: That's good.

57
At 00:04:46,495, Character said: Now, there's an alternative to
the scheme we've just discussed.

58
At 00:04:49,539, Character said: It's a question of living abroad.

59
At 00:04:51,666, Character said: Yes. Couldn't I send the money or
the company out of the country?

60
At 00:04:57,756, Character said: I mean, must I go away with it?

61
At 00:04:59,132, Character said: Ah, well, you see, that's
covered under Section 412,

62
At 00:05:01,468, Character said: which carries a penal clause
to stop the

63
At 00:05:03,011, Character said: transferring abroad of shares by
an individual in this country.

64
At 00:05:05,555, Character said: It carries fines of up to �10,000.

65
At 00:05:07,766, Character said: So it's really, therefore, a matter of
your taking up residence abroad for a year.

66
At 00:05:10,727, Character said: Which means you'd have
to leave by the end of March

67
At 00:05:12,938, Character said: and return not earlier than
April the 10th the following year.

68
At 00:05:17,025, Character said: I see.

69
At 00:05:18,527, Character said: We had an interesting idea put up to
us this morning about the last film.

70
At 00:05:21,738, Character said: You know that Charlie never
wanted to write a screenplay of it

71
At 00:05:24,866, Character said: because he felt that the whole
conception of it was too literary.

72
At 00:05:28,620, Character said: Yes.

73
At 00:05:29,496, Character said: Well, this seems to be a way of
interpreting the novel filmically

74
At 00:05:34,543, Character said: and retaining the complexity of
something written in the first person.

75
At 00:05:37,796, Character said: The idea is that instead of
turning it into a feature film,

76
At 00:05:40,757, Character said: we might be interested in turning
it into a series for television.

77
At 00:05:43,677, Character said: We certainly need some
good stuff on television.

78
At 00:05:45,428, Character said: Financially, it could be very useful.

79
At 00:05:47,597, Character said: Well, there's no harm
in making a pile of money.

80
At 00:05:49,891, Character said: And these people have been
really creative in the past.

81
At 00:05:52,894, Character said: I've known people who've suffered
from the common wart all their lives.

82
At 00:05:56,523, Character said: They've tried all ways
to get rid of 'em.

83
At 00:05:58,775, Character said: They rub the affected part
with castor oil, rusty water,

84
At 00:06:03,321, Character said: raw potatoes, juice of a dandelion,
spit, head of a live match.

85
At 00:06:07,909, Character said: He could lease them for eighteen, and
he'd still have his residuals, of course.

86
At 00:06:11,705, Character said: Which means, Charlie, that it might
be possible to work out an arrangement

87
At 00:06:14,833, Character said: whereby the tapes could be leased
on a one or two showing basis,

88
At 00:06:18,628, Character said: you still retaining ownership.

89
At 00:06:20,171, Character said: There's also a cure which
consists of rubbing a wart with raw meat

90
At 00:06:23,300, Character said: and burying the meat in the garden,

91
At 00:06:25,385, Character said: based on the belief, presumably,

92
At 00:06:27,345, Character said: that the virus can be supernaturally
transferred to alien flesh.

93
At 00:06:31,516, Character said: In fact, you'd show
the tapes once to get your money back,

94
At 00:06:33,810, Character said: and then the residuals could be
lease fees for any number of times reuse.

95
At 00:06:37,230, Character said: Sounds very sensible.

96
At 00:06:38,398, Character said: Wise hands
enchasten here these warts,

97
At 00:06:41,568, Character said: which we to others
from ourselves sell.

98
At 00:06:47,282, Character said: Charlie. How are ya?
Nice to see ya.

99
At 00:06:49,868, Character said: Meet me solicitor. He suffers from
persistent warts. Look at 'em.

100
At 00:06:53,121, Character said: Mr Bigwood, Charlie Bubbles.
Charlie's a writer.

101
At 00:06:55,957, Character said: Yes, I know. And a very
good writer too, if I may say so.

102
At 00:06:59,002, Character said: - I've read most of your books, Mr Bubbles.
- Have you read any of mine?

103
At 00:07:03,006, Character said: Do you like this place?
I suppose you come here a lot.

104
At 00:07:05,717, Character said: This is my second visit. I'm not
what you'd call a regular customer.

105
At 00:07:08,803, Character said: A bit dull at these prices,
don't you think?

106
At 00:07:11,598, Character said: I arrived tieless. They forced me
to wear this filthy object.

107
At 00:07:14,976, Character said: Here, can you join us for a drink?

108
At 00:07:16,937, Character said: Or do you have to get back
to your business associates?

109
At 00:07:19,564, Character said: I see they're really getting
down to it, aren't they?

110
At 00:07:21,858, Character said: They're discussing my residuals....
