Two's up is a very old Yorkshire expression meaning, "Save me a small amount of what you're currently consuming" It was originally used by miners who were hungry and wanted a piece of pie from one of their more fortunate colleagues. It became more popular in the 70's and meant "share your cigarette with me".
