voice of the film narrator:
[to black-and-white images of doomed cattle and poultry, the film in the cinema drones on]
Master butchers like this one
[creepy older man in audience surveys crowd]
voice of the film narrator:
are quick to spot the right bird,
[spots Luci, latching on to her]
voice of the film narrator:
and their experience and know-how is the key to the young housewife's satisfaction. Meat auctions attracts the crowds, some keen, some just curious. Here the butcher can see just what he is a-getting.
[on-screen, a variety of pigs]
voice of the film narrator:
This is a free-for-all, and anybody is welcome.
[Nick returns from smoke break]
voice of the film narrator:
Today, the standard is very, very high, but a little rough meat still finds its way onto the British market. Judging meat on the hoof is an expert business and it would seem there are fewer master butchers
[the creepy guy sits down next to Luci]
voice of the film narrator:
buying from the market these days. Some say that they are getting older and that there aren't any youngsters going into the trade.
[the guy places his leg next to Luci's, his hand poised]
voice of the film narrator:
Even so, these are the men who enjoy the excitement of the market auctions. Yet the master butcher remains what he has always been: a craftsman, descendant of a long line.

voice of the film narrator:
We are all Jack Sprats at heart, you know.

We like it lean.
[Nick sees the undue attention being lavished]
voice of the film narrator:
The modern taste is for small joints.
[Nick urges her to resist, but she just sits back]
voice of the film narrator:
This helps the farner, who can grow the end product more quickly. And that means more and more meat goes into the British oven.
[stroking thighs]
voice of the film narrator:
And here is the result of all the farmers' work and the butcher's craft. A prime cut of the protein.
[Nick nudges her]
voice of the film narrator:
You don't have to ask whether they like it.
[narrator guffaws, turkeys squawk, Nick drags Luci out of her seat, and they run out of the cinema]
