Chariots of Fire1981

[The athletes are playing cricket in the ballroom of their hotel. Henry Stallard is the umpire; Aubrey Montague bowls a delivery to Eric Liddell, batting]

Henry Stallard:
No ball!

Harold M. Abrahams:
[desperate to get into bat] Come on, Aubrey, the old leg-break!

[Aubrey bowls another delivery, which deceivingly appears to have gotten Eric out]

Harold M. Abrahams:
How zat!

Henry Stallard:
Not out!

Harold M. Abrahams:
What do you mean, not out? You could have heard it from bloody Bournemouth! Come on, Liddell, my innings.

Eric Liddell:
I didn't touch it, I swear; it must've been the crack of my wrist!

Harold M. Abrahams:
He's out I tell you, you're all deaf - deaf and bloody blind! Aubrey I ask you, for God's sake!

[No response from Aubrey, dramatic pause]

Harold M. Abrahams:
[punching the air] It's not FAIR!

[The athletes break into laughter, Abrahams eventually joining them]
