The Ricardos and Mertzes Go to London!

Ricky, can you believe it? We're in London! How about it, eh? It just doesn't seem real actually seeing all those places. Piccadilly, London Bridge, Westminster Abbey. Isn't it exciting? Oh, and look at this lovely room! Isn't it nice? Oh, honey, we have a balcony! Oh, yeah. Will that be all, sir? Yes, thank you. Pardon me, but could you tell me where Buckingham Palace is from here? Yes, ma'am. It's right over that way. Oh, Ricky, we can see it from here! Yeah! Isn't it beautiful? Wonderful! Oh, dear, I'm just dying to see the Queen. Oh, have you ever seen the Queen? No, ma'am, but I came frightful close during the coronation. I just missed her. Ah, what a shame. But I did catch a glimpse of him. Philip? No, ma'am. Danny Kaye. I'll bring a whistle. All right. Oh, isn't it exciting? Don't you just love it? I say all being, ain't this the nuts? What a city this is! How's your room? It's great, just like this. Same view and everything. Uh, one thing stumped him, though. What was that? He didn't know how much to tip the bellhop. I didn't know whether to give him tuppence or thruppence. Fred, thruppence is only about three cents. Well, he solved it rather neatly. What'd he give him? Nuppence. Well, it's not my fault. I just can't figure the money over here. Well, it was your excuse in the USA. Fred is now the darling of the bellhops on two different continents. Well, whether I tip them or not, remember, they'll always be in England. Yeah, but it won't always have us in it. Come on, we got a million sights to see. Let's go to Buckingham Palace first and see the Queen. Honey, it's only ten o'clock. Queens don't get up this early. How would you know? Oh, well, let's just go by the palace and look. You know, see if the shades are down. Yeah, and if the milk is in the front porch, don't ring the bell. I won't, honey. Fred, but there are magnets that are out here, hot-knobbing with royalty. Let's you and I go to the theater, eh? Right-o. Oh, honey, aren't you gonna go with us? No, I gotta go to the Palladium. I'll go get my coat. I'll go get my coat, too. Hey, maybe we can do some shopping. Okay, I wanna get some souvenirs. Souvenirs, okay. Honey, if I'm gonna go shopping, I need some money. All right, but no funny stuff now. What do you mean? Well, back in Hollywood, you came home with John Wayne's footprints. I don't wanna find Big Ben sticking right next to my bed. Fred. What's this? That's 10 pounds, English money. English money? How much is this in our money? Well, a pound is 280, so that's $28. 28, well, thank you. Hey, what if I wanna buy something that's less than $28? You could change, just like they do in America. Well, I don't know what kind of change I should be getting. Well, here it is. Fred is with the book. Now, you know how much a pound is? Sure, 16 ounces. A pound is $2.80. There are 20 shillings in a pound. Each shilling is worth 14 cents. There are 7 shillings in a dollar and 12 pennies in one shilling, see? No wonder the Pilgrims left here to go to America. Just buy whatever you want and trust the people to give you the right change. All right, honey, I will. Okay, I'm all ready, honey. Goodbye, dear. I'll see you later, honey. All right, see you later. Don't spend all that dough I gave you, Ethel. How much you give her? $10. $10? Well, 10 of whatever they call dollars over here. Fred, if you gave her 10 pounds, you gave her $28. $28? Holy cow! Come on. Let's go.
