Do ya really want to jump? Then let's jump!

Fans of Sergeant Martin Riggs were thrilled again last week as he butted heads with authority one more time.

They can't get enough of his disrespectful attitude to senior cops and enjoyed another characteristically witty swipe at a female colleague dubbing her "sugar tits" - he just doesn't care about your politically correct tied-down ways man!

Enthusiasts for his particular brand of self indulgent alcoholism weren't dissapointed either. As a smoky saxophone blared and rain traced a melancholic line on a windowpane Riggs pondered the tragedies that had dogged his life from the bottom of a whiskey bottle. He concluded that it was probably the Jews.

Jumping straight into a car an angry Riggs set off to battle the forces of evil one more time. In a puzzling change from received wisdom fans whooped encouragement and hollered support as the clearly drunk and mentally unbalanced man roared down the road in a large truck, ready to kill anyone who got in his way.

That's why he's the only L.A cop registered as a Lethal Weapon
