Dempsey and Makepeace

Dempsey and Makepeace1985



Dempsey:
Ever hear of Jack Dempsey?

Horse Johnson:
'Course I have.

Dempsey:
I wanna show you something. [hands him an old newspaper clipping]

Horse Johnson:
Who's the other bloke?

Dempsey:
Mike Dempsey. My grandfather.

Horse Johnson:
Were you related?

Dempsey:
Yeah... I was his grandson.

Horse Johnson:
What, to Jack?

Dempsey:
No, to Mike. [hands back the clipping] It's a coincidence. See, they, they're sparring partners.

Horse Johnson:
Mike did win the golden gloves, though. I never used them. [puts up his dukes]

Horse Johnson:
That must be something, fighting with your bare hands.

Dempsey:
Yeah, I quite enjoyed it.
