who here knodw English cockney slang? (Lock, stock and 2 smoking barrels..
this is a great, great movie.
I can't figure out one line, though. actually, I can't figure out the nound.


there is a scene where Big Chris and Little Chris go to see Hatchet Harry for instructions on killing the heroes and retrieving the shotguns in question.

Barry the Baptist is sitting in a corner. To Little Chris he says "Do you want a lollie?"
To which little Chris replies, "Piss off, you nunce."

My question: What the hell is a "nunce?"

3. I found watching those movies with subtitles help a ton
I mean, I can't even understand with the thick accents they use. I finally did that with Trainspotting and realized just how much I really love that movie!

5. by the way, is 'snatch' as good as 'lock, stock and 2 smoking...
barrels?'
Guy Ritchie directed both....some cast spillover, too I believe
