是，首相（1986）

那当然

不过通常那家伙只是
Usually it's just a chap
自作主张支了一笔短期的
who's advanced himself a short-term,
非正式 无担♥保♥的临时贷款
unauthorised, unsecured temporary loan
朝公♥司♥借了点钱
from the company's account
不幸投错了地方
and invested it unluckily.
人有失手 马有失蹄嘛
Horse falls at the first fence, that sort of thing.
那你觉得我该任命谁?
So who do you think I should appoint?
就像我说的 这不好办
Oh, well, as I say, that's not easy.
找不出几个大伙都信得过的人
Not all that many chaps the chaps trust.
这不由我来说
It's not for me to say,
不过如果受到了邀请...
but if one were to be asked...
既然这个人被认为是...
As long as one were thought to be...
当然 人各有志 可是...
Of course, one is committed, but...
如果真是形势所迫...
And if one were to be pressed,
我敢说这个人总能腾出时间来
I dare say one could make oneself available.
就当作是为...
As a duty one owes to...
我想的是亚历山大-詹森
I was thinking of Alexander Jameson.
你觉得呢?

if you let the cat out of the bag?
要想注入新血 一不小心
Bring in a new broom and, if you're not careful,
可能就得刮骨疗毒顺带割肉
you've thrown the baby out with the bath water.
临阵突然换了将
If you change horses in the middle of the stream,
四面楚歌♥也怨不得谁
then you're up the creek without a paddle.
于是就吹灯拔蜡了
And then the balloon goes up!
可不是 被他们抓住小辫子了嘛
Obviously. They hit you for six.
等于自摆乌龙
An own goal, in fact.
我还有半小时就要上台了
I'm on in half an hour
讲话里还是没有任何实质内容
and this speech is devoid of content.
我不知道
Oh, I don't know.
你觉得呢 伯纳?
What do you think, Bernard?
我不知道 好吧 我知道
I don't know. Well, I do know.
观众会起立鼓掌的

您不能胁迫财政部长胁迫财政部
Can't you lean on the Chancellor to lean on
胁迫中♥央♥银行胁迫各银行降息吗?
the Bank of England to lean on the banks?
半小时之内? 一年半载都难
What, in half an hour? Not in a month of Sundays!
中♥央♥银行绝对不同意
The Bank would never allow it.
我能做的 只有任命清廉先生当董事长了
All I can do is appoint Mr Clean as Governor.
