The young and zealous opera Titov unwittingly disrupts the operation of the department for combating drug trafficking. By chance, he wounds one of the employees of the "outdoor" Lookout, and brings his partner to dismissal. As punishment for the failure of the operation, Titov is transferred to the OPU — the operational search department, the "outdoor", and appointed a partner of the Lookout. He is a professional in his field and does everything according to the textbook, which cannot be said about Titov.

Therefore, each surveillance of the partners turns into a cavalcade of events, as a result of which the crime is solved.
Norbert Smith – a Life (en)
Norbert Smith – a Life is a spoof TV documentary film charting the life and career of the fictitious British actor Sir Norbert Smith. It stars Harry Enfield in the title role. It was written by Harry Enfield and Geoffrey Perkins and directed by Geoff Posner. It was made by Hat Trick Productions for Channel 4 and was first broadcast on 3 November 1989. The film is presented as if it were an edition of the ITV arts programme The South Bank Show, and features Melvyn Bragg, the presenter of the real South Bank Show, playing himself as the interviewer visiting Sir Norbert at his home, and encouraging him to reminisce about his past career. The humour arises from the fact that although Sir Norbert is acclaimed as one of Britain’s “Knights of the Theatre”, in the mould of a Laurence Olivier or John Gielgud, actually none of his contemporaries has anything particularly good to say about him, and he appears to have had limited success in landing good film roles. Interviewed now in his old age, he is demented, and has confused memories about his past. The main point of the film, however, is the parodying of various 20th century film genres, through interspersed clips that feature Enfield as Sir Norbert in a variety of film roles.
