It was wonderful stuff and I watched it on late night repeats. <br /><br />The catchy theme tune helped as well. <br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmUOee7fRRQ<br /><br />The name comes from the Cockney rhyming slang for the Flying Squad (anti-bank robbery unit). The Sweeney Todd. The Sweeney. <br /><br />I have yet to have the chance to say "Put yer trousers on, yer nicked." However when the moment comes, I will be well prepared.Conrad Kinchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15683395740934527502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-991803860372006625.post-51036679711261253342012-01-02T23:46:36.175+00:002012-01-02T23:46:36.175+00:00Mrs. Kinch sounds like a Pearl among women.
