Auf Wiedersehen, Pet, Series 1
Oz:
Well, this is a right puzzler, this one. I don't wanna go back home, but I don't really wanna stop here working in Germany, especially if I'm just gonna be workin' with Germans.
Moxey:
I thought you had a wife and a kid though, Oz.
Bomber:
Aye, and that's why he doesn't want to go back!
Oz:
[Nods in agreement] True, true. What about you, Moxey? You'll stop here with us, won't ya?
Moxey:
Ah, as much as I like it, Oz, I can't say I relish the idea of paying tax, like. I mean, when you think about the squallid lifestyle that we lead at the moment, it's gonna be even worse with less money.
Bomber:
Sounds like another boy Blighty-bound to me!
Moxey:
No way, Bomb. There's even less chance of that happening.
Oz:
How's that, like?
Moxey:
I've got a record, haven't I? I was in the nick for two years 'fore I come out here.
Oz:
Yeah?
Moxey:
This was supposed to be me fresh start in life.
Oz:
Ahhh, what did you get locked up for, eh?
Moxey:
Arson.
Oz:
[Shocked] Arson?!
Moxey:
Yeah, I know! I didn't wanna tell you blokes, you know, in case you got worried, like, you know, about bein' in the same hut as me, like. Guess it don't matter now, though.
Oz:
[Still shocked] Arson, eh? And you don't even smoke!
Bomber:
And how's that come about, Mox?
Moxey:
I was workin' on this building site, you know, back in Liverpool. Bastard site manager, had it in for us, like, kept dockin' my wages for no reason! And one day, you know, I just lost me rag. I set fire to his hut.
Oz:
What, was he still in it?
Moxey:
Not for long, no. [Bomber chuckles] So there you go, record for arson. Dodge City address.
Oz:
Where?
Moxey:
Kirkby. I reckon me chances on Merseyside are even worse than Everton's!
Bomber:
I see what you mean.
Oz:
Well... [Slams his palm on the bar] Stop on, Moxey. That's the only thing you can do, really.
Moxey:
Yeah, I know, Oz, but, y'know once they get me name down on their forms and their files, it'll only be a matter of time before they find out about me past.
