Lock, Stock: SCRIPT

It’s all a deceptive façade

A few nights ago rorys roger iron rusted
So he’s gone down the battle cruiser to watch the end of a football game
No one’s watching the custard so he switches the channel over
A fat geezer’s north opens
And he wanders up and turns the lizer over
Now fuck off and watch it somewhere else
Rory knows claret is imminent but he doesn’t wanna miss the end of the game
So calm as a comber, picks up the fire extinguisher,
Walks straight past the jam rolls who are ready for action and plonks it outside the entrance
He then order an aristottle of the most ping pong tiddly in the nuclear sub and switches Back to his footer
“That’s fucking it” says the geezer
“That’s fucking what?” says Rory
And he gobs out a mouthful of booze covering Fatty and he flicks a flaming match into his bird’s nest
And the geezers lit up like a leaking gas pipe, Rory unfazed turns back to his game, his team’s won too 4-0!

Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels Pub Scene

I think this is the chosen audio that I will use for my moving image piece (edited down in some way)..

Rhyming Slang Translation - Commercial

3 People at Lord John Russel Pub, London...

Austin Powers - Goldmember

This is the inspiration for the 'Cockney Rhyming Slang' idea...

Initial thoughts..

Martin Luther King Speech "I Have A Dream" -
Audio: Snippets of the main/most recognised sections of the speech
Images: Rally boards/banners, type accentuating the key words/phrases

Sat Nav Journey -
Audio: Sat nav voice describing a journey
Images: Type found in the environment, road/directional signs

Colloquial Accents -
Audio: People with different accents from the UK saying the same phrase
Images: Purely typographical, a visual interpretation of the words but how they would be spelt e.g. 'accents' said by a Londoner would be spelt 'aksunts'

Cockney Rhyming Slang -
Audio: Various rhyming slang words either individually or said in a sentence
Images: Typographical with the meaning/translation of the word being said
