The Beiderbecke Affair1985

[Sergeant Hobson has warned Big Al that using the church crypt as a warehouse contravenes planning regulations]

Big Al:
The town planners have moved in like a wolf on the fold.

Trevor Chaplin:
I believe they tend to do that.

Big Al:
If we don't get all that gear out of the church basement by the weekend, we're all pencilled-in for deportation, solitary confinement, loss of privileges, discharge with ignominy, boiling in oil... or a small fine.

Trevor Chaplin:
All that for breaking the town planning regulations?

Big Al:
I think you get a choice - I haven't studied the small-print.
