Corrected entry: In order to tell Archie where the loot is hidden, Ken imitates a flying jet, and Archie immediately states "Heathrow". That may be okay for people who don't know London, but Archie is born and bred - he would have to know that Ken could be alluding to any one of the two major or two large regional airports which serve London - Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted or Luton (London City wasn't open in those days). He's a lawyer - he wouldn't jump to conclusions like that. (Why didn't he ask Ken to write the address down?!?).

Correction: The whole point of that scene is to make a joke about how Archie is able to guess the correct airport from just the imitation of a plane.

Correction: At 1:36:31, Ken tries to tell Archie the name of the airport, successfully pronounces the first syllable ("He-he-he"), then gives up and starts imitating an aeroplane. Archie then promptly puts two and two together and darts off. Btw. Archie offers the pen to Ken immediately after Ken starts stuttering ("Here, here, again!"), but the latter thinks that playing at aeroplanes is faster and easier. (Quite obviously, the makers of the movie decided that this was more comical than Ken writing again.)
