Sound of knocking on door
DETECTIVE HUNT
Bridget Evans? Annie Taylor? Detective David Hunt from the Metropolitan Police. Could I have a word with you, please?
ANNIE
So we went to the restaurant and it was a very good vegetarian restaurant and I had the peppers and Hector had the mushrooms, which was very nice because Hector doesn't like mushrooms, so I said to him that it was good for him to try.
BRIDGET
Annie!
ANNIE
Oh, and then afterwards, we went for a lovely walk and it was such a beautiful evening, and the birds were singing...
BRIDGET
Annie! Will you shut up!
ANNIE
Sorry.
BRIDGET
You have been talking non-stop for twenty minutes.
ANNIE
I know. It's, it's because I'm doing a sponsored silence for the charity Pigs With No Parents.
Sponsored silence. So why are you talking?
ANNIE
Well, it doesn't start till 10 o'clock so if I talk a lot now, then I won't have to talk later. Anyway, what's wrong with your mouth?
BRIDGET
Oh, er, nothing.
ANNIE
Have you got a spot? Oh! I'll call an ambulance.
BRIDGET
No, but I am going to see my beautician later.
ANNIE
What for?
BRIDGET
Oh, just for a check-up.
A check-up? But you go to the dentist for a check-up, for your teeth.
Exactly. I'm going to the beautician's to check...
Check that you're beautiful?
Of course not. I don't have to check I'm beautiful, do I.
Oooh!
Hey, Nick, do you like my new clothes, huh? Nick!
Ohhhhhh!
Nick! What is the matter? You can tell me. Oh, you have a toothache. Then if you have a toothache, you must go to the den.....
Aaaarrrghhh!
Can't I say the word 'den....? OK, I won't say the 'D' word. I call him, erm, plumber. OK, so when did you last see the plumber?
Ah-ah?
That's not too bad, five months ago.
Five years ago? No?
When you were five years old?
Ah-ah-ah.
Whoo-hoo-hoo. It's going to be a big job. He'll need a big drill. Come on! The girls must know a good plumber. Come on! Do you want a sweetie? Do you want a sweetie? Uh-uh-uh, sweets are bad for your teeth. Come on.
Ah-ah-ah!
Oh, hi, sugar-plum.
Hello, snuggly-puppykins. Ooh! Nice clothes. New?
Yeah, thanks.
Is Nick rehearsing for the pantomime?
No, he has a toothache so he must see the plumber.
No, no, no, Hector. For a toothache, he must see the dentist.
Whaaaaahhhh!
Shh, shh, shh! I know that, but Nick doesn't like the 'D' word.
Oh, dentist.
Ah-ah-ah!
So I'm calling the dentist a plumber. So do you know a good plumber?
A plumber? What for?
Nick has toothache.
Well, he doesn't need a plumber. He needs a dentist.
Aaah!
Yes, Hector, we have the number of a very good plumber - Julian.
Oh, Julian! He's so gentle.
He's so married! Oh, hi, Julian. Listen, we have an emergency here. What are the symptoms? Oh, shaking, squealing..., yeah, just a toothache.
You can? Oh, thank you! Bye!
Sorted. He'll see Nick now.
OK, come on, Nick. Come on. Come on, Nick. Come on, Nick.
Assorted groaning noises/sound of door slamming
Julian looked in my mouth once. He said, "Bridget, you've got wonderful teeth."
With a mouth that big, I'm surprised he didn't fall in!
Sound of telephone ringing
Hello? Who’s this? Bernard?
BRIDGET [In flashback]
Oh! Hello, Bernard.
Oh, hello, Bernard. You've been what? Robbed? When? When you were in the bath? All your clothes? And your keys? Oh, poor Bernard. Listen, you must call the police, OK? OK. Bye.
Poor Bernard. It's ten o'clock! My sponsored silence starts now.
NICK [Composing email]
Oh, I've got a toothache. I don't want to go to the - dentist, but Hector says I must go.
He'll need a big drill.
Arrrghhh!
Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta!!! Ha-ha-ha-ha!
Owwww!
ANNIE [Composing email]
This morning I started my sponsored silence for the charity Pigs With No Parents.
If I talk a lot now, then I won't have to talk later.
ANNIE [Composing email]
I won't have to speak, because Bridget has gone to see a beautician.
Have you got a spot?
ANNIE [Composing email]
Oh!! It was urgent!!
I’ll call an ambulance!
ANNIE [Composing email]
You won't believe this, but our neighbour Bernard has had all his clothes stolen.
All your clothes? And your keys?
ANNIE [Composing email]
I wonder who could have done such a terrible thing?
Poor Bernard! I told him he must call the police.
Bridget Evans? Annie Taylor? Detective David Hunt from the Metropolitan Police. Could I have a word with you, please? Why not? You can't speak, I'm sorry. Oh, you can speak.
Are you trying to be funny with me, young lady? I no speak for, hmm, one word, three syllables. First syllable - sit. Seat? Chair? Second syllable - A, E, I, I, Tea. Chair-I-Tea. Chair-i-tea?
You're being silent for charity! Ah, but which charity? Cow? Dog? Cat?
Pig? Got it! Pigs Without Parents!
Is this man bothering you, Annie? Because if he is, I am going to show him some Argentinean....
Detective David Hunt of the Metropolitan Police.
...respect.
And you are?
Hector Romero.
Ah, I suspect you're not English, eh?
He is a very good detective.
Ha-ha-ha!
And you are?
[ …Unintelligible …]
He's just been to see the plumber.
The plumber?
Yes, he had a toothache.
But you don't go to the plumber when you've got a toothache.
You go to the den....
Biscuit?
Den....
Anyway, I'm here to investigate a robbery of Bernard Reynolds.
Huh! Somebody has stolen Bernard!
Ha-ha-ha-ha!!
It's not a robbery. Bernard Reynolds' clothes!
Oh, who would want Bernard's clothes?
So I'm investigating everybody in the building, because someone has stolen Bernard Reynolds' clothes. Where were you last night?
I was with Annie. Annie?
Oh, it's OK. She can't speak for chair-I-tea! Anyway, what about Nwiff?
Huh? Well, I [Assorted noises].
Show me, Nick.
[Assorted noises].
Ah! I went to Leo's Bar...
[Assorted noises].
I had a beer...
[Assorted noises].
There was a beautiful girl...
[Assorted noises].
And a motorbike?
You were with a young woman on a motorbike? Motorbike. Registration?
[Assorted noises].
Name of the young woman?
[Assorted noises].
Oh, he wasn't with her.
Ah! The young woman was on television on a motorbike!
[Assorted noises].
I saw that! Very nice! Gee, I'm getting good at this.
ANNIE [Composing email]
Anyway, I was being silent and there was a knock on the door.
Bridget Evans? Annie Taylor?
ANNIE [Composing email]
It was a policeman, a detective!
Detective David Hunt from the Metropolitan Police. Could I have a word with you, please?
ANNIE [Composing email]
Unfortunately, I could not speak, because of my sponsored silence.
Chair-i-Tea?
ANNIE [Composing email]
And worse still, I had to tell him why.
Got it! ‘Pigs Without Parents!’
Oh!!
NICK [Composing email]
When Hector and I came back from the dentist – [oww!] - a policeman was waiting for us. He wanted to know where I was last night. [Uh-oh!] ... .. .. .... Huh? Oh, well, I ... ... ... .. Ow!
Anyway, Hector managed to translate for me, unfortunately!
Motorbike. Registration?
[Assorted noises].
Name of the young woman?
[Assorted noises].
Sound of knocking on door
Oh, there you are!
Oh, hello, Mr Reynolds.
Well, have you caught them?
Who?
The robbers.
The robbers who stole my clothes.
Ah, yes. My investigations are going very well.
[Makes loud sneezing noise]
Oh, you have a cold, Bernard? Oh, you need some clothes?
What a week!
First Mum went away to play bingo all weekend!
Bingo?
[Assorted noises].
Two fat ladies, 88.
[Assorted noises].
Clickety-click, 66. Well, anyway, and then someone stole my clothes.
Bingo!
Ah, Digestives! My favourite.
Sound of door opening
Aha! You must be Miss Evans.
And this is Sherlock Holmes!
Bridget, I'd like to ask you a few questions.
Bernard's wearing my dressing gown! What are you staring at?
Nothing.
[Assorted noises].
Is there something wrong with your top lip?
No.
Yes, there is. It's bright red.
It doesn't show, does it?
No, no, no.
They told me in the salon no one would notice! [Sound of Bridget blowing her nose]. Thank you.
I wanted perfect lips, but I didn't have enough money, so a student did them.
What, a butcher student?
There, there. You're still very pretty.
Am I? Really?
Really. Where were you last night?
Looking in the mirror.
All night?
Yes, all night.
How can anyone spend all night looking at themselves in the mirror?
[Assorted noises].
Oh, Bridget would.
So let me summarise everybody's alibis.
Annie is doing a sponsored silence for ‘Pigs With No Parents.’ She would not have had time to take Bernard's clothes. And what's more, Bernard's clothes would be too big for her.
Hmm, Nwiff was watching ‘Babes and Bikes’ on television. I watched that too, so he may be telling the truth.
Bridget was looking at herself in the mirror all night. Huh! An unlikely story.
However, if I accuse her, she'll start crying again and I can't stand hysterical women.
Which brings me to Hector.
Hector's wearing a terrible suit. It looks stolen.
Nobody would buy it, surely.
And his only alibi is Annie, and guess what?
She can't speak!
But the clues do speak!
Hunt, you're a genius!
I think that someone here is not telling the truth and I think that someone is you!
But I told you: I was with Annie.
Annie hasn't said she was with you.
That's true.
She can't speak. She is doing a sponsored silence for chair-I-tea.
It doesn't matter. Did you go out at all?
Yes.
Where?
Shopping.
Shopping? For what?
Some new clothes.
These new clothes? Now let me get this straight. You need some new clothes and Mr Reynolds' clothes have been stolen. So what does that tell me?
Yes, but I...
Why buy new clothes when you can steal somebody else's?
Yeah!
Oooh!! Do these look like Bernard's clothes?
Ooooh!!
They could be. My colour.
Oh no! I spoke! You! You made me speak!
Oooh!
Hello? Yes, he's here. I'll get him. Bernard? It's your mother.
Hello, Mum. You're back. How was bingo?
Mum, someone stole my clothes.
Oh! Oh! Ah.
Ahhh.
OK. Right, I'm off. Mum's back.
She's cooking my tea.
Bernard, what about your clothes?
It's OK. She's got them.
What?!
What?
What?
She put them in the washing machine before she went to bingo.
Oh.
Bye!
So Bernard's clothes were in the washing machine all the time.
Well, yes, as I suspected. That's another case solved. I'll be off then.
Oh no you won't.
What?!
You owe me £120 for ‘Pigs With No Parents.’ You made me speak.
Well, will dollars do?
Ow!!
Next time in EXTRA, the girls enter a game show and guess what Hector finds on his jumper?
EXTRA, don't miss it.
