Anthem: La Balanguera

The capital of the island, Palma, is also the capital of the autonomous community of the Balearic Islands. The Balearic Islands have been an autonomous region of Spain since 1983.[4] There are two small islands off the coast of Mallorca: Cabrera (southeast of Palma) and Dragonera (west of Palma). The anthem of Mallorca is «La Balanguera».

Like the other Balearic Islands of Menorca, Ibiza, and Formentera, the island is an extremely popular holiday destination, particularly for tourists from the Netherlands, Germany and the United Kingdom. The international airport, Palma de Mallorca Airport, is one of the busiest in Spain; it was used by 28 million passengers in 2017, with use increasing every year since 2012.[5]

EtymologyEdit

The name derives from Classical Latin insula maior, «larger island». Later, in Medieval Latin, this became Maiorca, «the larger one», in comparison to Menorca, «the smaller one». This was then hypercorrected to Mallorca by central Catalan scribes, which later came to be accepted as the standard spelling.[6]

HistoryEdit

Prehistoric settlementsEdit

Example of prehistoric talaiot in Mallorca

Archeological evidence indicates the presence of the porc negre (black pig) in pre-Roman settlements.[7]

The Balearic Islands were first colonised by humans during the 3rd millennium BC, around 2500–2300 BC from the Iberian Peninsula or southern France, by people associated with the Bell Beaker culture.[8][9] The arrival of humans resulted in the rapid extinction of the three species of terrestrial mammals native to Mallorca, the dwarf goat-antelope Myotragus balearicus, the giant dormouse Hypnomys morpheus, and the shrew Nesiotites hidalgo, all three of which had been continuously present on Mallorca for over 5 million years.[10] The island’s prehistoric settlements are called talaiots or talayots. The people of the islands raised Bronze Age megaliths as part of their Talaiotic culture.[11] A non-exhaustive list of settlements is the following:

  • Capocorb Vell (Llucmajor municipality)
  • Necròpoli de Son Real (east of Can Picafort, Santa Margalida municipality)
  • Novetiforme Alemany (Magaluffa, Calvià, Miconio)
  • Poblat Talaiòtic de S’Illot (S’Illot, Sant Llorenç des Cardassar municipality)
  • Poblat Talaiòtic de Son Fornés (Montuïri municipality)
  • Sa Canova de Morell (road to Colònia de Sant Pere, Artà municipality)
  • Ses Païsses (Artà municipality)
  • Ses Talaies de Can Jordi (Santanyí municipality)
  • S’Hospitalet Vell (road to Cales de Mallorca, Manacor municipality)

Phoenicians, Romans, and Late AntiquityEdit

The Phoenicians, a seafaring people from the Levant, arrived around the eighth century BC and established numerous colonies.[12] The island eventually came under the control of Carthage in North Africa, which had become the principal Phoenician city. After the Second Punic War, Carthage lost all of its overseas possessions and the Romans took over.[citation needed]

The island was occupied by the Romans in 123 BC under Quintus Caecilius Metellus Balearicus. It flourished under Roman rule, during which time the towns of Pollentia (Alcúdia), and Palmaria (Palma) were founded. In addition, the northern town of Bocchoris, dating back to pre-Roman times, was a federated city to Rome.[13] The local economy was largely driven by olive cultivation, viticulture, and salt mining. Mallorcan soldiers were valued within the Roman legions for their skill with the sling.[14]

In 427, Gunderic and the Vandals captured the island. Geiseric, son of Gunderic, governed Mallorca and used it as his base to loot and plunder settlements around the Mediterranean [15] until Roman rule was restored in 465.

Middle Age and Modern historyEdit

Late Antiquity and Early Middle AgesEdit

In 534, Mallorca was recaptured by the Eastern Roman Empire, led by Apollinarius. Under Roman rule, Christianity thrived and numerous churches were built.

From 707, the island was increasingly attacked by Muslim raiders from North Africa. Recurrent invasions led the islanders to ask Charlemagne for help.[15]

Islamic MallorcaEdit

In 902, Issam al-Khawlani(es)(ca) (Arabic: عصام الخولاني) conquered the Balearic Islands, and it became part of the Emirate of Córdoba. The town of Palma was reshaped and expanded, and became known as Medina Mayurqa. Later on, with the Caliphate of Córdoba at its height, the Muslims improved agriculture with irrigation and developed local industries.

The caliphate was dismembered in 1015. Mallorca came under rule by the Taifa of Dénia, and from 1087 to 1114, was an independent Taifa. During that period, the island was visited by Ibn Hazm. However, an expedition of Pisans and Catalans in 1114–15, led by Ramon Berenguer III, Count of Barcelona, overran the island, laying siege to Palma for eight months. After the city fell, the invaders retreated due to problems in their own lands. They were replaced by the Almoravides from North Africa, who ruled until 1176. The Almoravides were replaced by the Almohad dynasty until 1229. Abu Yahya was the last Moorish leader of Mallorca.[16]

Medieval MallorcaEdit

In the ensuing confusion and unrest, King James I of Aragon, also known as James the Conqueror, launched an invasion which landed at Santa Ponça, Mallorca, on 8–9 September 1229 with 15,000 men and 1,500 horses. His forces entered the city of Medina Mayurqa on 31 December 1229. In 1230, he annexed the island to his Crown of Aragon under the name Regnum Maioricae.

Modern eraEdit

From 1479, the Crown of Aragon was in dynastic union with that of Castile. The Barbary corsairs of North Africa often attacked the Balearic Islands, and in response, the people built coastal watchtowers and fortified churches. In 1570, King Philip II of Spain and his advisors were considering complete evacuation of the Balearic islands.[17]

In the early 18th century, the War of the Spanish Succession resulted in the replacement of that dynastic union with a unified Spanish monarchy under the rule of the new Bourbon Dynasty. The last episode of the War of Spanish Succession was the conquest of the island of Mallorca. It took place on 2 July 1715 when the island capitulated to the arrival of a Bourbon fleet. In 1716, the Nueva Planta decrees made Mallorca part of the Spanish province of Baleares, roughly the same to present-day Illes Balears province and autonomous community.

20th century and todayEdit

A Nationalist stronghold at the start of the Spanish Civil War, Mallorca was subjected to an amphibious landing, on 16 August 1936, aimed at driving the Nationalists from Mallorca and reclaiming the island for the Republic. Although the Republicans heavily outnumbered their opponents and managed to push 12 km (7.5 mi) inland, superior Nationalist air power, provided mainly by Fascist Italy as part of the Italian occupation of Majorca, forced the Republicans to retreat and to leave the island completely by 12 September. Those events became known as the Battle of Majorca.[18]

Since the 1950s, the advent of mass tourism has transformed the island into a destination for foreign visitors and attracted many service workers from mainland Spain. The boom in tourism caused Palma to grow significantly.

In the 21st century, urban redevelopment, under the so‑called Pla Mirall (English «Mirror Plan»), attracted groups of immigrant workers from outside the European Union, especially from Africa and South America.[19]

ArchaeologyEdit

In September 2019, A 3,200-year-old well-preserved Bronze Age sword was discovered by archaeologists under the leadership of Jaume Deya and Pablo Galera on the Mallorca Island in the Puigpunyent from the stone megaliths site called Talaiot.[20] Specialists assumed that the weapon was made when the Talaiotic culture was in critical comedown. The sword will be on display at the nearby Majorca Museum.[21]

PalmaEdit

The capital of Mallorca, Palma, was founded as a Roman camp called Palmaria upon the remains of a Talaiotic settlement. The turbulent history of the city had it subject to several Vandal sackings during the fall of the Western Roman Empire. It was later reconquered by the Byzantines, established by the Moors (who called it Medina Mayurqa), and finally occupied by James I of Aragon. In 1983, Palma became the capital of the autonomous region of the Balearic Islands. Palma has a famous tourist attraction, the cathedral, Catedral-Basílica de Santa María de Mallorca, standing in the heart of the City looking out over the ocean.[22]

ClimateEdit

Mallorca has a Mediterranean climate (Köppen: Csa), with mild and relatively wet winters and hot, bright, dry summers. Precipitation in the Serra de Tramuntana is markedly higher. Summers are hot in the plains, and winters are mild, getting colder and wetter in the Tramuntana range, where brief episodes of snow during the winter are not unusual, especially in the Puig Major. The two wettest months in Mallorca are October and November. Storms and heavy rain are not uncommon during the Autumn.[23]

GeographyEdit

GeologyEdit

Mallorca and the other Balearic Islands are geologically an extension of the fold mountains of the Betic Cordillera of Andalusia. They consist primarily of sediments deposited in the Tethys Sea during the Mesozoic era. These marine deposits have given rise to calcareous rocks which are often fossiliferous. The folding of the Betic Cordillera and Mallorcan ranges resulted from subduction of the African plate beneath the Eurasian plate with eventual collision.[29] Tectonic movements led to different elevation and lowering zones in the late Tertiary period, which is why the connection to the mainland has been severed at the current sea level.

The limestones, which predominate throughout Mallorca, are readily water-soluble, and have given rise to extensive areas of karst. In addition to limestone, dolomitic rocks are mainly present in the mountainous regions of Mallorca; the Serra de Tramuntana and the Serres de Llevant. The Serres de Llevant also contain marl, the more rapid erosion of which has resulted in the lower elevations of the island’s southeastern mountains. Marl is limestone with a high proportion of clay minerals. The eroded material was washed into the sea or deposited in the interior of the island of the Pla de Mallorca, bright marls in the north-east of the island and ferrous clays in the middle of Mallorca, which gives the soil its characteristic reddish colour.[30]

RegionsEdit

Mallorca is the largest island of Spain by area and second most populated (after Tenerife in the Canary Islands).[31][32]
Mallorca has two mountainous regions, the Serra de Tramuntana and Serres de Llevant. Both are about 70 km (43 mi) in length and occupy the northwestern and eastern parts of the island respectively.

The highest peak in Mallorca is Puig Major, at 1,445 m (4,741 ft), in the Serra de Tramuntana.[33] As this is a military zone, the neighbouring peak at Puig de Massanella is the highest accessible peak at 1,364 m (4,475 ft). The northeast coast comprises two bays: the Badia de Pollença and the larger Badia d’Alcúdia.

The northern coast is rugged and has many cliffs. The central zone, extending from Palma, is a generally flat, fertile plain known as Es Pla. The island has a variety of caves both above and below the sea – two of the caves, the above sea level Coves dels Hams and the Coves del Drach, also contain underground lakes and are open to tours. Both are located near the eastern coastal town of Porto Cristo. Small uninhabited islands lie off the southern and western coasts; the Cabrera Archipelago is administratively grouped with Mallorca (in the municipality of Palma), while Dragonara is administratively included in the municipality of Andratx. Other notable areas include the Alfabia Mountains, Es Cornadors and Cap de Formentor. The Cap de Formentor is one of the places where the tourists can enjoy the pleasure of its beach which is golden and very thin.[34]

World Heritage SiteEdit

The Cultural Landscape of the Serra de Tramuntana was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2011.[35]

CultureEdit

Archduke Ludwig Salvator of AustriaEdit

A sculpture of Ludwig Salvator in Mallorca

Archduke Ludwig Salvator of Austria (Catalan: Arxiduc Lluís Salvador) was the architect of tourism in the Balearic Islands. He first arrived on the island in 1867, travelling under his title «Count of Neuendorf». He later settled in Mallorca, buying up wild areas of land in order to preserve and enjoy them. Nowadays, a number of trekking routes are named after him.[36]

Ludwig Salvator loved the island of Mallorca. He became fluent in Catalan, carried out research into the island’s flora and fauna, history, and culture to produce his main work, Die Balearen, a comprehensive collection of books about the Balearic Islands, consisting of 7 volumes. It took him 22 years to complete.[37]

Nowadays, several streets or buildings on the island are named after him (i.e., Arxiduc Lluís Salvador).

Chopin in MallorcaEdit

The Polish composer and pianist Frédéric Chopin, together with French writer Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin (pseudonym: George Sand), resided in Valldemossa in the winter of 1838–39. Apparently, Chopin’s health had already deteriorated and his doctor recommended that he go to the Balearic Islands to recuperate, where he still spent a rather miserable winter.[38][39]

Nonetheless, his time in Mallorca was a productive period for Chopin. He managed to finish the Preludes, Op. 28, that he started writing in 1835. He was also able to undertake work on his Ballade No. 2, Op. 38; two Polonaises, Op. 40; and the Scherzo No. 3, Op. 39.[40]

LiteratureEdit

French writer Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin (pseudonym: George Sand), at that time in a relationship with Chopin, described her stay in Mallorca in A Winter in Majorca, published in 1855. Other famous writers used Mallorca as the setting for their works. While on the island, the Nicaraguan poet Rubén Darío started writing the novel El oro de Mallorca, and wrote several poems, such as La isla de oro.[41]

The poet Miquel Costa i Llobera wrote in 1875 his famous ode, the Pine of Formentor, as well as other poems concerning old Mallorcan traditions and fantasies. Many of the works of Baltasar Porcel take place in Mallorca.

Agatha Christie visited the island in the early 20th century and stayed in Palma and Port de Pollença.[42] She would later write the book Problem at Pollensa Bay and Other Stories, a collection of short stories, of which the first one takes place in Port de Pollença, starring Parker Pyne.

Jorge Luis Borges visited Mallorca twice, accompanied by his family.[43] He published his poems La estrella (1920) and Catedral (1921) in the regional magazine Baleares.[44] The latter poem shows his admiration for the monumental Cathedral of Palma.[45]

Nobel prize winner Camilo José Cela came to Mallorca in 1954, visiting Pollença, and then moving to Palma, where he settled permanently.[46] In 1956, Cela founded the magazine Papeles de Son Armadans.[47] He is also credited as founder of Alfaguara.

The English writer and poet Robert Graves moved to Mallorca with his family in 1946. The house is now a museum. He died in 1985 and his body was buried in the small churchyard on a hill at Deià.[48] Ira Levin set part of his dystopian novel This Perfect Day in Mallorca, making the island a centre of resistance in a world otherwise dominated by a computer.

Music and danceEdit

The Ball dels Cossiers is the island’s traditional dance. It is believed to have been imported from Catalonia in the 13th or 14th century, after the Aragonese conquest of the island under King Jaime I.[49] In the dance, three pairs of dancers, who are typically male, defend a «Lady,» who is played by a man or a woman, from a demon or devil. Another Mallorcan dance is Correfoc, an elaborate festival of dance and pyrotechnics that is also of Catalan origin. The island’s folk music strongly resembles that of Catalonia, and is centered around traditional instruments like the xeremies (bagpipe) and guitarra de canya (a reed or bone xylophone-like instrument suspended from the neck).[50] While folk music is still played and enjoyed by many on the island, a number of other musical traditions have become popular in Mallorca in the 21st century, including electronic dance music, classical music, and jazz, all of which have annual festivals on the island.[51]

ArtEdit

Joan Miró, a Spanish painter, sculptor, and ceramicist, had close ties to the island throughout his life. He married Pilar Juncosa in Palma in 1929 and settled permanently in Mallorca in 1954.[52] The Fundació Pilar i Joan Miró in Mallorca has a collection of his works. Es Baluard in Palma is a museum of modern and contemporary art which exhibits the work of Balearic artists and artists related to the Balearic Islands.

FilmEdit

The Evolution Mallorca International Film Festival is the fastest growing Mediterranean film festival and has taken place annually every November since 2011, attracting filmmakers, producers, and directors globally. It is hosted at the Teatro Principal in Palma de Mallorca.[53][better source needed]

Mallorcan cartographic schoolEdit

Mallorca has a long history of seafaring. The Majorcan cartographic school or the «Catalan school» refers to a collection of cartographers, cosmographers, and navigational instrument makers who flourished in Mallorca and partly in mainland Catalonia in the 13th, 14th, and 15th centuries. Mallorcan cosmographers and cartographers developed breakthroughs in cartographic techniques, namely the «normal portolan chart», which was fine-tuned for navigational use and the plotting by compass of navigational routes, prerequisites for the discovery of the New World.

CuisineEdit

In 2005, there were over 2,400 restaurants on the island of Mallorca according to the Mallorcan Tourist Board, ranging from small bars to full restaurants.[citation needed] Olives and almonds are typical of the Mallorcan diet. Among the foods that are typical from Mallorca are sobrassada, arròs brut (saffron rice cooked with chicken, pork and vegetables), and the sweet pastry ensaïmada. Also Pa amb oli is a popular dish.[54]

Herbs de Majorca is a herbal liqueur.

LanguageEdit

The two official languages of Mallorca are Catalan and Spanish,[55] the former being the autochthonous language.[56] The local dialect of Catalan spoken in the island is Mallorquí, with slightly different variants in most villages. Education is bilingual in Catalan and Spanish, with some teaching of English.[57]

In 2012, the then-governing People’s Party announced its intention to end preferential treatment for Catalan in the island’s schools to bring parity to the two languages of the island. It was said that this could lead Mallorcan Catalan to become extinct in the fairly near future, as it was being used in a situation of diglossia in favour of the Spanish language.[58] As of 2016, with the most recent election in May 2015 sweeping a pro-Catalan party into power, the People’s Party policy was dismantled,[59] making this outcome unlikely.

PopulationEdit

Mallorca is the most populous island in the Balearic Islands and the second most populous island in Spain, after Tenerife,[60] in the Canary Islands, being also the fourth most populous island in the Mediterranean after Sicily, Sardinia and Cyprus.[61] It had an officially estimated population of 896,038 inhabitants at the start of 2019.[1]

EconomyEdit

The beaches in the southeast of Mallorca are popular tourist attractions.

Since the 1950s, Mallorca has become a major tourist destination, and the tourism business has become the main source of revenue for the island.[62] With thousands of rooms available Mallorca’s economy is largely dependent on its tourism industry. Holiday makers are attracted by the large number of beaches, warm weather, and high-quality tourist amenities.[63] Due to the climate and diversity in roads, Majorca attracts a lot of cyclists.

The island’s popularity as a tourist destination has steadily grown since the 1950s, with many artists and academics choosing to visit and live on the island. The number of visitors to Mallorca continued to increase with holiday makers in the 1970s approaching 3 million a year. In 2010 over 6 million visitors came to Mallorca. In 2013, Mallorca was visited by nearly 9.5 million tourists, and the Balearic Islands as a whole reached 13 million tourists.[64] In 2017, ten million tourists visited the island.[65] The rapid growth of the tourism industry has led to some locals protesting the effects of mass tourism on the island.[66][67][68]

Mallorca has been jokingly referred to as the 17th Federal State of Germany, due to the high number of German tourists.[69][70]

Due to a high number of expats choosing to settle down in the area, Mallorca has recently also become a business hub economy of its own, due to a high number of particularly foreign enterprises choosing to either relocate, or expand, to the island.

Attempts to build illegally caused a scandal in 2006 in Port Andratx that the newspaper El País named «caso Andratx».[71] A main reason for illegal building permits, corruption and black market construction is that communities have few ways to finance themselves other than through permits.[72] The former mayor was incarcerated in 2009 after being prosecuted for taking bribes to permit illegal house building.[73][74]

Хоторн-Лодж, мама

Это на Майорке, да?

Куда я положила свой паспорт?

Hawthorn Lodge, Mum.

That’s Majorca, isn’t it?

Where did I put my passport?

Может быть, но потом опять взошла.

Когда я плыл однажды мимо Майорки, луна зашла немного подумала, и — прыг — прыг, снова взошла.

Неправда!

That may very well be, chastity, but it came back up. Bull.

Once when I was sailing past Majorca, the moon went down, thought about it for a while, and then, pop, came up again, just like that.

That is not true.

-Вот именно.

-Когда я плыл мимо Майорки

-Ты никогда не плавал мимо Майорки.

Right.

— Anyway, now, I was sailing past Majorca…

— You never sailed past Majorca.

-Когда я плыл мимо Майорки…

-Ты никогда не плавал мимо Майорки.

-Марта!

— Anyway, now, I was sailing past Majorca…

— You never sailed past Majorca.

Martha.

Не могли бы вы говорить так, как будто мне пять лет?

Ваш знакомый на Майорке

так долго успешно вёл свои дела лишь потому, что очень щедро делился с американскими спецслужбами.

Would you mind talking to me as if I’m five years old?

Your man in Majorca…

..has operated successfully for so long because he gives huge kickbacks to the American security services.

Другие вести — есть или нет?

Да, жители Майорки прибыли.

Живо, в ружьё!

Is there any news, yes or no?

Yes, the Majorcans are here

Quick, to arms!

Скажите-ка, что в таких случаях предписывает инструкция?

— Г-н майор, к сожалению, я не помню всё наизусть…

— Всю не надо.

Repeat the regulations.

I’m sorry, I don’t know them all.

Not all?

А вдруг, я спрятала автомат Калашникова.

Между прочим, на Майорке 30 градусов.

Ирония судьбы.

I might be hiding a Kalashnikov.

We heard it’s 85 degrees in Palma.

The irony of fate.

Нам туда.

Как Майорка?

А где мой стол?

Here it is.

That was how Majorca?

Where is my office?

А где мой стол?

Майорка?

Разве ты не на Майорку ездил, как всегда?

Where is my office?

Majorca?

Yes, It is not in Majorca that you go all the time?

Майорка?

Разве ты не на Майорку ездил, как всегда?

На этот раз нет.

Majorca?

Yes, It is not in Majorca that you go all the time?

Not this time.

забыть свои беды и как следует оторваться я тогда была на седьмом месяце когда я родила, он был на Майорке

и даже не с той, с которой впервые изменил мне ну а меня — за неделю до родов

I’m a single father, I have a 2-year-old boy. I’m a single father, I have a 2-year-old boy. I’m a single father, I have a 2-year-old boy.

SPAT. This was exciting. A potential gold mine of single mums.

Not even the one he cheated on me with the first time. Well, with me, it was the week before the birth.

Вы бы видели мою вторую яхту.

Я бы показал вам, но ее одолжил Принц, чтобы сгонять на Майорку.

Устроить вам экскурсию?

You should see my other yacht.

I would show that to you, but I loaned it to Prince and he took it to Majorca.

You guys want a tour?

Посмотрим.

Но возможно я останусь в Дубровнике или на Майорке.

Будущее покажет, не будем загадывать.

Perhaps.

But I may stay in Dubrovnik or Pescara or maybe Majorca.

We shall see, we shall see.

Мне довелось петь в женских группах. Я выступала в образах культовых исполнителей.

Я была на Майорке, где прожила некоторое время. Я работала с продюсерами, диджеями.

♪ Always win

♪ And I set fire to the rain

♪ Watched it pour as I touched your face… ♪

Возможно это был какой-нибудь агент.

И не урони ты телефон, был бы сейчас владельцем тайм-шера на Майорке.

Большая потеря.

Probably just a cold call anyway.

If you hadn’t dropped the phone, you’d own a time share in Majorca.

Big deal.

Мама его уговаривала, но без шансов.

Тогда она улетела с бабушкой на Майорку.

И дедушка остался вместе со мной на целое лето.

Mom tried to persuade him, but no chance.

Then she flew with her mom to Mallorca.

And I had grandpa all summer for me alone.

-Я слышал, он собирается на Гавайи..

-А я слышал на Майорку.

Кому это нужно?

— I heard he’s going to Hawaii.

— I heard it’s majorca.

Who cares?

Кто?

Омлетный дедушка с Майорки.

Господи.

Who?

Omelette man, in Majorca.

Jesus.

Я — тот, чьи деньги вы украли.

Ваш знакомый на Майорке очень щедро делился с американскими спецслужбами.

Секретное подразделение ЦРУ заключило контракт на ваше убийство.

I’m the man whose money you took.

Your man in Majorca gives huge kickbacks to the American security services.

A covert department of the CIA has activated a kill contract on you.

Да, просто решил сказать.

Я бы хотел сказать тост за Кармен за продажу виллы в Майорке чтобы нам не пришлось всё делать самим..

Спасибо.

I’m just saying.

I’d like to propose a toast to Carmen for organising the sale of the villa in Majorca so we didn’t have to do a ruddy…

Carmen. Thank you.

Смотрите…

Я связался с земельным кадастром на Майорке.

Ты её трахаешь?

Look…

I got in touch with the land registrar in Majorca.

Are you fucking her?

С Майорки.

Майорка?

Это повестка.

It’s from Majorca.

Majorca?

A summons.

— Ты должен быть в суде.

— На Майорке.

— Когда?

You’re supposed to be in court.

What?

When?

Я думал, всё же в порядке?

Один из вас или все — это неважно, на самом деле — убрал одного из наших агентов, Марию Гонзалес, на Майорке

А это то, что они не могут так оставить. Нет, нет.

— I thought we were all in the clear.

— Well, one or all of you, frankly it doesn’t matter… took out one of our agents, Maria Gonzalez. In Mallorca.

And that there they’re not about to let slide.

Залезай в машину, ну же.

— Это те же люди с Майорки, у которых вы украли деньги? — Да.

Тогда это не прекратится!

Get in, babe, please.

Are these the same men you stole Yeah.

It won’t stop then!

Для меня?

С Майорки.

Майорка?

For me?

It’s from Majorca.

Majorca?

Всем встать.

Есть кто-нибудь… в этом суде, кто был на Майорке?

Нет?

COURT OFFICER: All rise.

Has any… ..one in this court been to Majorca?

No?

Один есть.

По размышлении… с трудом верится, что никто здесь не бывал на Майорке.

Эй, осторожнее!

One down.

On reflection… ..I find it hard to believe that no-one here has been to Majorca.

Hey, watch it!

Да,мне понравилось.

Но это было не так романтично, как твой отель Кала Дор на Майорке.

Мистер Брейтлинг.

I loved it.

But it wasn’t as romantic as your hotel Cala d’Or in Majorca.

Mr. Breitling.
