[the Wheelman is driving the getaway car after the robbery and hears on the police radio that the police are getting very close]

The Wheelman:
I used to live round here. Hold tight.

[he swerves onto a farm track, through some greenhouses and heads towards a fence]

Guv'nor:
[shouts] That's a bloody fence! Christ! Where are you going? You stupid... Where are we going now?

The Wheelman:
[calmly] We can cut through round here, back onto the estate.

Donkey:
[shouts] There's no road. Where is it? There's no road!

[the Wheelman sees two garages with a narrow gap between them]

The Wheelman:
Sh*t! These weren't here last year.

Donkey:
[ironically] No? Well they're here now!

[the Wheelman tries to get through the gap, but the car jams, so he reverses and tries again, repeatedly]

Guv'nor:
[shouts] Where are you going, Richie?

The Wheelman:
Trying to get us out of here.

Guv'nor:
[shouts] It won't work!

The Peterman:
Can we get out!

The Wheelman:
That's what I'm trying to do.

The Peterman:
No, get out and walk.

Donkey:
Look, you don't understand the basic laws of physics. The hole is too small.

[after many attempts, the Wheelman manages to get the car through the gap]

Guv'nor:
Have you *any* idea where you're going?

[after narrowly escaping being crushed by an oncoming lorry as they overtake a coach, they arrive at some waste ground where they dump the car]

The Wheelman:
[apologetically] Sorry about the last bit, Guv. Bit untoward.

Guv'nor:
Don't worry, Richie. Anyone else would still be modifying greenhouses. Be lucky, son.
