How can you be sure it ain't been found? Over the past few years, every policeman and underworld figure in the country must have been looking for that gold.
(talking about the gold that was stolen by Freddie the Frog) And what would they have done with it, eh? They either put it through a fence, which meant it becomes public knowledge, or they smelt it down themselves. And if they do that, well that amount of gold coming onto the market causes ripples, the sort of ripples that would be remembered for a long time.
What if the police found it?
I'm talking about the police! The chaps never found it either; I had a chat with the Driscoll brothers.
(incredulous) You went and saw the Driscoll Brothers?
Why, what are they like?
Oh, they're smashing blokes, Unc! It's like bumping into the Two Ronnies; Biggs and Kray! And they never sussed out why you were asking questions?
No! I mean, you know what they're like! A couple of years ago, some guru reckoned the world would end within a month, and Danny Driscoll bet a grand that it would! And he's the brains of the outfit!
