Auf Wiedersehen, Pet · Season 1, Episode 15

Wayne, Oz and others in “Unfinished Business”

Hey, she was a bit tasty that interviewer, eh? Old Nev should've steamed in there!

Aye, they've got some canny boilers, the Germans, like, I'll give 'em that.

But nothin' else, though.

. Well, the beer's passable. [His comments start attracting the attention of a few German workers]

You passes enough of it.

No, no, no. To be fair, I've only been here three weeks, I mean.

Doesn't make any difference, does it? You could be here three years, and all you'd see was bierhalles, massage parlours...

So yer gettin' at me again? [Bomber nods]

Look, you could use workin' here as an education, yer kna. You could learn from it.

Look, man, look. I lay bricks, that's what I do. I get up in the morning and for eight hours a day, five days a week, I lay bricks, alreet? It doesn't make no difference to me if it's Dusseldorf or Darlington. I just lay bricks man. [The German workers shake their heads and prepare to confront Oz.]

It depends how you use your time off, don't it, eh? I mean Nev's got the right idea, he's integrating himself, I mean.

Oh, has he?

Yeah, that's what Kevin Keegan did. When Kevin Keegan went to Hamburg, he made a real effort to adapt...

[To Dennis, who's gone to the bar] Get us a bottle, will ya?

And Mrs. Keegan! They learn the language, and they made a wide variety of friends amongst the German community.

Oh, aye? So how come he transferred to Southampton, then? I mean Germany must be pretty desperate if he preferred Southampton!

[Returning to the table with some more beers] Have yer been there, like, have ya? [Three of the German workers stands behind Dennis.]

Course I have...

GWGerman worker

I have a question for you.

Oh aye? Wanna see me papers, do ye?

GWGerman worker

If Germany is such no good place, why don't you piss off back to England? [Dennis winces as Oz breaks a bottle and grabs the German worker]
