Governor: Good evening Gressom. So what have you been doing since we last met?

Gressom: why corblimey governor. I left the cheese and kisses in the god forbids and rat and mouse, took Flander and dabbed on the frog and toad, but I had a very pleasant pint of pig's ear and a large pimple and blodge.

Governor: You've been down to the east end again haven't you Gressom?

Gressom: you've tumbled me

Governor: what's it like?

Gressom: well, rather like this

Of course, you and I might think they'd be happier in nice houses like ours, but top scientists have proved that if you give a working man a nice house, he'll quickly let it fall into a state of filth and depravity.That's how he likes it.

working man in film: those west end do-gooders theys have gived us a perishing inside toilet now.

2nd working man in film: Inside toilet? I ain't never not heard of one of them nor I ain't no know nothing. As you knows, I doesn't know its. Mind if I pop outside and foul your pavement?
