00:01Come on, Shell. We want to be there first, eh?
00:04Come in.
00:09Gets well crowded down the surgery, doesn't it?
00:12You going with her or is she going with you?
00:14Um, I'm going with her.
00:16Well, it's the proper thing to do, really.
00:18I mean, if you're going to get married to someone,
00:20at least you can go to the doctors with them.
00:22Responsibility, I think.
00:24Seems about right.
00:25Oh, no.
00:26Hey, good morning, all. Guess what?
00:27Everything's coming up roses.
00:29I'd sing it if I could.
00:30Guess what?
00:31What?
00:31Guess.
00:32I can't guess.
00:33Come on, Dad.
00:34Tony's offered me a job starting this afternoon,
00:36helping to fit out the shop.
00:37Oh, Arthur, that's wonderful.
00:39That's really great.
00:40It's great, you know, I can't go wrong.
00:41I've got money falling from the trees.
00:43Well done, Dad.
00:44Yeah, darling.
00:44I can't stop. I've got to go to the doctor's.
00:45All right, now.
00:46See you later.
00:46Bye.
00:50I suppose we'll have to get used to Lofty.
00:52He'll be part of the fixes, won't he?
00:54It's really awkward having Lofty hanging about.
00:56I mean, I'm quite fond of him.
00:59I really do like him,
01:00but I've never really thought about him before.
01:02But now he's going to be our son-in-law,
01:04and for all we know,
01:05he could be the father of Michelle's baby.
01:08I just don't know how to treat him.
01:10Decent of him to go with Michelle to the doctor's, though.
01:12Oh, yeah, I know.
01:14I've had enough of that,
01:15sitting in an overcrowded waiting room
01:17with no-one for company.
01:18I was at work.
01:19Well, not all the time.
01:21What do you mean, not all the time?
01:23Anyway, it's history, Arthur.
01:24There's no point in going over it now.
01:25Then why mention it?
01:26I was just saying about Michelle,
01:28how well she's got everything organised.
01:30She's got a baby at home to practise with,
01:32special tuition,
01:33everyone running around in circles after her.
01:36I should have been so lucky.
01:38Oh, come on, love.
01:40Hey, listen, I'll tell you what.
01:41Why don't we get a new carpet from here?
01:43We've talked about it for years.
01:45Brighten up the place.
01:46What do you say?
01:46Oh, Arthur, could we really?
01:48It's no problem.
01:48We can get it with the money I get from Tony.
01:50Oh, you'll be sorry.
01:52A few quid coming in,
01:53everyone goes mad.
01:54We skimped and saved for years.
01:56Let's have a bit of a splash.
01:58Oh, splash away.
01:59When you drown, don't look at me.
02:00I won't throw you a life belt.
02:02All I know is that famine follows fees
02:04as sure as a dog follows its dinner.
02:06Oh, well, nobody listens to me,
02:08so I'm going to me room.
02:10I'll ring if I want anything.
02:14Thanks, Mum.
02:17Can't we be friends, eh?
02:18We are friends.
02:19Look, Mary,
02:20I know I didn't handle things very well the other day.
02:23I thought you handled everything just fine.
02:25You know what I mean.
02:26I don't know what you mean.
02:28I'm just trying to get
02:29that little misunderstanding sorted out, that's all.
02:31What misunderstanding?
02:33I didn't notice any misunderstanding.
02:35If there was, you're the one that's doing it.
02:37Yeah, right, OK.
02:39I'm sorry, Mum.
02:41It don't take you to make me miserable, you know.
02:43I was miserable before I met you.
02:45Oh, come on, Mary.
02:46Things are looking up for you, love.
02:47You're learning to read and write.
02:48I mean, that doesn't have to stop.
02:50You're going somewhere.
02:52Somewhere you don't want to go.
02:53Is that right?
02:54Is that why you've changed your hair again, eh?
02:57You think I changed it for you?
02:59I didn't say that.
02:59You've got a high opinion of yourself.
03:01Sorry, sorry, love.
03:02It's just a thought.
03:03I don't care what you thought.
03:06Anyway, even if I had changed it for you,
03:08where would it have got me?
03:10Nowhere, that's where.
03:11You were doing well with Ian and Kelvin.
03:13They're kids.
03:15Who do you think I am?
03:17Anyway, they've gone off me now, too.
03:20It makes me feel great, that.
03:21Everyone goes off me in the end.
03:22What, intimidated by the make-up?
03:24Don't start.
03:26Anyway, you don't need to worry about me.
03:28I didn't want a relationship with you in the first place.
03:31What good would that do me?
03:32You tell me that.
03:33No good at all, I suppose, love.
03:36Oh, Willie, Willie.
03:38If only you could talk.
03:41What a tale you'd have to tell your mummy, eh?
03:43All about your adventures.
03:45Come on, I have all time to get outside.
03:47Time for opening.
03:48Just because Dan and Angie aren't here,
03:50we've got to keep moving, haven't we?
03:51Keep working.
03:52Oh, come on, Willie.
03:53I suppose we'll have to jump to it.
03:56Hello, love.
03:56You've been ages.
03:57It's going to court to 12.
03:58Oh, it was jam-packed.
03:59I didn't think I'd ever get away.
04:01Well?
04:01No problems.
04:02Everything's fine.
04:03Oh, good.
04:03Do you want a cup, love?
04:04Yeah, I'll do it.
04:05No, no, I'll do it.
04:06You go and sit down.
04:07You've had enough with hanging about in a crowded surgery.
04:09Doctor, you don't have to do something about it, you know.
04:11Yeah?
04:11You don't have to get a secretary or something.
04:13Lofty had to leave when you get to work.
04:18Shell, you're not serious about Lofty, are you?
04:21Here we go.
04:22Dad, I'm serious.
04:23Now, hang on a minute.
04:24Me and your dad's been talking.
04:26Well, that's fatal, isn't it?
04:27Don't push us aside.
04:29I mean, it's a big step.
04:30And I've made up my mind.
04:33You've panicked.
04:34That's what it is, isn't it?
04:36What are you talking about?
04:37The baby's only a couple of months away.
04:39You've got your exams, pressure.
04:41It's only natural.
04:42Dad, leave it, please.
04:44We can't leave it, Michelle.
04:45It's important.
04:46I like Lofty.
04:48Like?
04:49I don't hear much about love.
04:51Love is something I hear from other people.
04:53I like Lofty.
04:55I respect him.
04:56I don't think he'll ever hurt me, and that's good enough for me.
04:59He hasn't got a steady job.
05:01He's got no prospects.
05:03So being a nice bloke and having a good character ain't much copy if you ain't got prospects.
05:07Is that what you're saying?
05:07It is important, Michelle.
05:08I mean, I can marry a drunken, battering maniac.
05:10That's all right.
05:11Just as long as he keeps me in the manner to which I've never been accustomed to.
05:13What are you talking about?
05:14Well, apply those standards to yourself, and who'd marry you?
05:16Oh, we'd had a steady job when I married your mum.
05:18You'd marry, so why can't me and Lofty?
05:20That's not fair, Michelle.
05:21What's being fair got to do with it?
05:24Saved by the bell.
05:25Arthur, go and see what mum wants.
05:26No, we've got to get this sorted.
05:27I'll tell you.
05:28Look, it's not the time, Arthur.
05:30We're obviously not going to get anything sorted today.
05:32That's clear.
05:32And if being settled means me giving up Lofty, it won't be settled today or any other day.
05:36Why are you being so pig-headed?
05:37Please, don't yell.
05:39Don't shout.
05:40This has all got to be sorted out properly.
05:42And what's properly, mum, eh?
05:43What's best for you?
05:46Arthur, go and see to mum.
05:48Mum, mum, listen.
05:50Maybe I know what's best for me, eh?
05:52You can't stop us worrying about you.
05:54Well, you can worry away.
05:55I trust Lofty.
05:58Well, if you trust him, love, then...
06:01Oh, come here, love, then.
06:04As long as you're sure what you're doing is the right thing for you, we'll stand by you.
06:12Hello, Queen Vic.
06:14Angie?
06:16Angie, is that you?
06:17Well, the line's not too good, mate.
06:21No, you sound a bit slow and fuzzy.
06:24Look, hang on a mo.
06:29Look, where are you?
06:32Are you all right?
06:34He's...
06:35Dan?
06:35Yeah, yeah, I know he's back.
06:38No, he's not here right now.
06:40He's, er...
06:42No, no, look, he is here.
06:43I just mean he's not here.
06:44Right in the pub now.
06:46Yeah.
06:47No, look, he had to go out.
06:49He's, er...
06:50Something on one of the pumps.
06:51Yeah, er, he's out getting a spare bit or something.
06:55No, honest.
06:59Yeah.
07:00Look, when Dan gets back, I'll tell him...
07:05Well, can I get him to ring you, then?
07:09No, all right.
07:10All right.
07:12Yeah, look, you enjoy your...
07:15Self.
07:17Oh, Angie.
07:24What's up?
07:25I just had Angie on the phone for my beefer.
07:27Oh, yeah.
07:28Oh, she sounds terrible, Pete.
07:29Really bad.
07:31I don't know what to tell her.
07:32I couldn't tell if Dale ain't here and I ain't got a clue where he is.
07:34What did you say?
07:36He said he's gone out to find something to fix a pump with.
07:39Look, where is he, for God's sake?
07:41Yeah, well...
07:42Look, he is back with Jan.
07:44What?
07:45Yeah, I saw him yesterday.
07:46Why didn't you tell me?
07:48I didn't know what to say, did I?
07:49Didn't I worry everybody?
07:50Oh, God.
07:52If she finds out this is a killer...
07:54Well, she killed herself.
07:55Perhaps she was close to it last time.
07:56Yeah, we can't make our own lives, haven't we?
07:59You don't have to be so hard, Kate.
08:01I don't mean to be hard, Kate, but it's true.
08:02I feel sorry for it.
08:04I'm probably so good at all.
08:05I'm not loving both tonight.
08:06I can't live their lives.
08:07Yeah, but it ain't easy, is it?
08:09Nah.
08:10Must leave me out a drink when I'm parched.
08:16Look at you.
08:17You're killing yourself.
08:18I can't stand people who go around killing themselves for no good reason.
08:21There's plenty of other people in this world with good reason, too.
08:23What are you talking about?
08:25Smoking.
08:26Well, what's wrong with smoking?
08:27This antisocial diet.
08:28You should give it up.
08:29What if I don't want to give it up?
08:31Well, everybody wants to give up smoking.
08:33I can't give it up.
08:35Well, you just give it up, that's all.
08:36You simply say, I won't smoke anymore, and that's it.
08:38I can't do that.
08:39I've got the wrong constitution for it.
08:41If I'm too brutal to it, it'll turn on me.
08:44Go to Dr. Legg then.
08:45He'll help you give it up.
08:46How?
08:47Well, he'll give you something to help you cut down the craving.
08:50What?
08:50You could prescribe nicotine-flavoured chewing gum.
08:53You what?
08:53Well, it gives your mouth something to do
08:55and cuts down the body's craving for nicotine.
08:56It's supposed to work a treat.
08:58Why don't you get something?
08:59I don't want to give up smoking.
09:00Well, you should.
09:01Have you got asthma?
09:01No, smoking helps my asthma.
09:03I mean, cigarettes actually help me to breathe.
09:05Yeah, you must be the only person that does help me.
09:07The only trouble is, when I cough, I get a fall of soot.
09:09Oh, yeah, nicotine-flavoured chewing gum.
09:13I don't know what your motive for.
09:14You smoke enough of it.
09:15Your mouth must be used to the taste of it by now.
09:17Yeah, well, not in chewing gum.
09:19They're usual for me and Pauline, please.
09:20I'm deep, all right?
09:21If you smoke Pauline, what do you think?
09:24Yes, but leave me out.
09:26It's antisocial.
09:27Yes, I know it's antisocial.
09:29And I wish I could stop smoking again, but I can't.
09:32Well, I don't like being called antisocial.
09:34I reckon it's guilt that spoils smoking.
09:37Well, it is antisocial, isn't it?
09:38What?
09:38The smell of stout tobacco in your hair and on your breath.
09:41And your lungs fill up with black goo, don't they?
09:43And you get empty, watch it, and you can't breathe
09:45because you can't get enough air in a little bit of that.
09:47Well, you ain't wrong, you know.
09:49Look, is there anyone going to come down this end?
09:50I must stop my feet.
09:51Yeah, be with you in sex.
09:52Well, I'd like to ban smoking in pubs.
09:55You can't stop smoking in pubs, Cathy.
09:57No, I mean booze and nicotine go together, don't they?
10:00I'd be the first non-smoking pub in London, in the world.
10:03Might even catch on.
10:04Yeah, well, I've been smoking far too long to give it up easily.
10:07When did you start, then?
10:08When I got married.
10:10Charlie liked company when he smoked, so I took it up.
10:13I used to have a long onyx holder.
10:15Oh, what?
10:16He liked me to look feminine.
10:17I didn't know women were allowed to smoke in them days.
10:19What days?
10:20Them days.
10:21Here, how old do you think I am?
10:24Anyway, look, a cigarette ain't feminine,
10:25even if it is stuck in the end of a long holder, Dot.
10:27Unless, of course, it's feminine to weave.
10:29Oh, I'm not taking any more of this.
10:31You've spoiled my lunchtime drink.
10:33I was going to have a sandwich here, but not now.
10:36I'm off to Sue's.
10:36That didn't mean it, Dot.
10:38Julie!
10:39As fascinating as this conversation is,
10:41I've got to start work.
10:42Tony will be waiting for me.
10:43Oh, yeah?
10:44Yeah, I'm helping him to fit out the shop.
10:45Oh, lovely.
10:46Oh, here, I've only forgot he'd kill me.
10:48Take Pete's drink out.
10:49Yeah, right.
10:49Here, just because then I'm hand, Janey,
10:51don't think you can leave it all to me.
10:52Oh, no, I'm chatting to the customers.
10:54I mean, seeing as then I'm here, well,
10:55it's down to the senior staff member, isn't it?
10:57Oh, yeah.
10:59Don't try to be my viewer here, right?
11:01We've got a job to do.
11:02Yeah, and we're doing it.
11:04She called me anti-social.
11:06I've never been anti-social in me life.
11:08Ask anyone.
11:09Well, you don't need to tell me that.
11:10You can go back as far as you like.
11:11You'll never find anyone to say that about me.
11:20That Cathy, she called me anti-social.
11:23I've never been anti-social in me life.
11:24Ask anyone.
11:25Well, you don't need to tell me that.
11:26You can go back as far as you like.
11:28You'll never find anyone to say that about me.
11:30I know.
11:31I like people.
11:32I know.
11:32Love them.
11:33So do I.
11:34Everybody knows that.
11:35I know that.
11:36She likes to hurt, don't she?
11:38Likes to make people victims.
11:40That's it.
11:41That's exactly it.
11:42Then there's that other one, that Debbie.
11:44Oh, another madam she is.
11:46Another pain in the neck.
11:47Yeah, I know.
11:48Though I must say, she's usually quite nice to me.
11:51Yeah, but still.
11:52I know.
11:53People are too free these days.
11:55Too free with others.
11:56Tight with themselves.
11:58I think they can do what they like.
11:59Say what they like.
12:00Like they're thinking about.
12:02Thank the Lord for me Bible.
12:04Must be nice to have a comfort.
12:06I wouldn't be without it.
12:08Anyway.
12:09Here you are, love.
12:10Oh, thanks.
12:11All right.
12:12Bye, then.
12:13Bye.
12:13Oh, how's it going, Cheryl?
12:16Bye, thanks, love.
12:17Oh, not long now, eh?
12:19No.
12:19No, you're a good girl.
12:20You've got the right idea.
12:22Not like some.
12:23Yes, you've got your values straight.
12:26Babies for God.
12:27That's the idea.
12:28God must never be denied souls.
12:32Bye.
12:32Bye.
12:33What is she talking about?
12:35I don't know.
12:36I never listen to her.
12:37Neither do I.
12:38Anyway, you're doing the right thing.
12:40Yeah, I think I am.
12:41Hope I am.
12:42At least you thought about it, which is more than most people do.
12:45He's got as good points as Lofty.
12:47He's kind.
12:48He's thoughtful.
12:48He thinks about me.
12:50Ian's the same.
12:51I'm not frightened of him.
12:53Lofty, I mean.
12:54It's easy to get frightened, isn't it?
12:56Yeah.
12:57Anyway, marriages should be thought about.
12:59Not rushed into and end up miserable and unhappy.
13:02Yeah, I know.
13:03I approve of Lofty.
13:05Thanks.
13:07Now, I don't mind telling you this.
13:09I wouldn't admit it to Mum or Dad or anyone else,
13:11but I did begin to get in a bit of a state.
13:14I didn't think I'd be able to manage, cope, or, you know, without someone.
13:18Is that why you said yes to Lofty?
13:19No, no.
13:20Let me finish.
13:23I began to think a lot about the baby's father.
13:25His real father, you know.
13:27Because Lofty won't be the dad, will he?
13:29Although he'll make a good one, I reckon, you know.
13:32I began to feel really fond of him all of a sudden.
13:36The kid's dad, back then.
13:38And I missed him, which surprised me.
13:42And then all of a sudden I began to feel really fond of Lofty
13:44and everything seemed all right.
13:46He knows what he's doing, does Lofty?
13:48I'll do all right by him.
13:49I know you will.
13:53You all right?
13:54Yeah.
13:55Just suddenly missed me dad.
13:57He'll be back.
13:58I know.
13:58But he's not here now when I miss him.
14:05You're doing a great job there, fellas.
14:07We aim to please.
14:08We always do a great job.
14:11Why is it you reckon Debbie never asked me to decorate her bedroom?
14:15Perhaps she thinks you wouldn't do a great job.
14:17I always do a great job.
14:19Hey, watch it.
14:20Hey, watch it.
14:25All right.
14:25All right.
14:27Bit of a mess, aren't we?
14:28Oh, just a bit.
14:29Shouldn't be for much longer, though.
14:31All right today?
14:32Yeah, I'm fine.
14:33You?
14:34Yeah, yeah.
14:35Couldn't be better.
14:36Well, I popped in for a few things, you know.
14:40And what did you want?
14:41Um, I can't think for a minute.
14:45Take your pick.
14:46Yeah.
14:47Oh.
14:48Oh, and biscuits.
14:52What's up?
14:53Oh, right, Tom.
14:57Oh, shampoo?
15:00Is that all right?
15:01Oh.
15:02Look, I'm not putting too much pressure on you, Emma.
15:04No, no, no, not at all.
15:05I mean, I want everything straight and above board, if that's what you want.
15:08I know.
15:14I mean, nothing underhand, you know.
15:16No hole-in-the-corner stuff.
15:18I mean, just a chance to go out with you, nothing more.
15:21I mean, you're under no obligation, of course.
15:23Of course.
15:24No.
15:25Naturally.
15:26Well, I mean, you know, cinema, have a meal and so on.
15:28I mean, expect nothing more.
15:30You know, I mean, let's see what happens.
15:33That's fine with me.
15:35Right, well, let's settle.
15:37Good.
15:38Well, I think I've got what I want.
15:40I'd better settle up.
15:42All right.
15:45Why don't you come round for a drink tonight?
15:47Oh, can I?
15:48No.
15:48Me?
15:49No.
15:50Manual workers don't stand a chance.
15:53Black manual workers have even less.
15:55Oh, shut up, you two.
15:56Oh, what time?
15:58Uh, six.
16:00I'll be there.
16:01Okay, so that's four sixty-nine.
16:04Eh?
16:04Oh, I don't understand it.
16:06What?
16:07Oh, sorry, mate.
16:08I was just, uh, talking to myself, you know.
16:10Well, they're the best kind of conversations to have.
16:13I mean, nobody interrupts you, do they?
16:14No, I was thinking of women.
16:16What, in general?
16:17No, no, in the particular.
16:19I don't know.
16:20Women.
16:21They get carried away and try to make too much of things.
16:23Yeah.
16:24See, as far as I was concerned, it was just a bit of fun.
16:27Nothing heavy.
16:28Well, she seems to think it was serious.
16:30Who?
16:31Name her.
16:31Oh, yeah.
16:32Yeah, I never thought she'd think like that.
16:34Well, women do, don't they?
16:35I mean, think like that.
16:37Well, then you know what I mean.
16:38Yeah, she's still married to Saeed, of course.
16:41I mean, that might have something to do with it.
16:42Oh, yeah.
16:43I never thought of that.
16:45Well, now, your mound of Jupiter shows that you are ambitious.
16:51But your mound of Saeed shows that your ambitions are unfulfilled.
16:57Is that right?
16:58Yes.
16:59Yes.
16:59You've really put your finger on it.
17:01It also shows that your ambitions have to be kept secret.
17:07Yes.
17:08Yes.
17:09Oh, hello, hello.
17:10What's all this, then?
17:11Oh, Lofty.
17:13You trying to do me in?
17:14I'm sorry, it was just a joke.
17:16Well, I could do all this crowd without you.
17:19Yeah, well, I won't do it again, eh?
17:20Well, I lost the thread now.
17:23My secret ambition.
17:24Ah, the time is right.
17:27Seize your heart's desire now, or forever miss the opportunity.
17:31I never liked having my hand red.
17:33I always thought they were looking at my fingernails.
17:35I see from your mound of Mars that you lack courage to some extent.
17:40I do, I do.
17:41Wow.
17:42Yeah, Ed, I could take a few of your customers, couldn't I?
17:45I mean, we'd have a quicker turnover.
17:46You know, you'd stand a better chance of not being nicked, do you?
17:49You must overcome these fears, and you need training, get out.
17:53But I've had training.
17:55I've been training for 20 years.
17:57Ah, yes, but I meant him.
17:58Now, your mound of Neptune here shows there's no reason why you shouldn't be a success.
18:05Look, but you just chat them up with me, don't you?
18:06I mean, say what will please them.
18:08Listen, it is a great gift, and it's only given to a few people.
18:13You've got to train!
18:15But will you train me, dear?
18:17Listen, you can start by keeping an eye open for the law.
18:20Excuse me?
18:21Oh, the time has come, right now, this very second.
18:28Your dreams will come true, and you can be who you want to be.
18:33But you must start now.
18:35Now.
18:36Right now.
18:38Yes, you're right.
18:39Yes, I know you're right.
18:41And time's running out.
18:43I'll do it.
18:44I'll take the plunge.
18:46Oh, my God!
19:11Hey, what is it?
19:13Oh, my God!
19:16Oh, my God!
19:20Oh, my God!
19:24Oh, my God!
19:26Oh, my God!
19:28Oh, my God!
19:28I hope the police don't arrest that poor woman.
19:31The police are there to stop them what's got nothing,
19:34take them from them what's got everything.
19:36Oh, well, that doesn't sound like you, Doc.
19:38What?
19:39Oh, I heard it on the radio yesterday.
19:41Oh.
19:41Oh, it's all right.
19:42They're letting it go.
19:43Good.
19:44Here, Ethel.
19:47What do you think about smoking?
19:50Well, it all depends what's doing it.
19:52No, I mean cigarettes, pipes, things like that.
19:55Oh, I don't like pipes.
19:56Oh, neither do I.
19:59I like cigarette holders, though.
20:01Here, Ethel.
20:03Will you tell me fortune?
20:04I'm worried.
20:05I'm very worried about what's left of me future.
20:09Oh.
20:09Yes, all right.
20:11Oh.
20:11Here, I'll tell you what.
20:13I'll read you cards.
20:15Here we are.
20:19Yeah.
20:22Just a tiny little shovel.
20:25Now, cut.
20:28Left turn.
20:30Oh, sorry.
20:31Lovely.
20:33Now, I want you to take 13 cards out of this pack anywhere you like.
20:41You know, I was all right this morning.
20:44Yeah.
20:45And then they all started fussing about being anti-social.
20:49You know, I've lost all my self-confidence.
20:52There we are.
20:54There's 13.
20:55I like them.
20:55Yeah.
20:57Ow.
21:01Oh.
21:06I feel if the future holds something good for me, I might be able to recover myself.
21:15Now, that is your card.
21:19A dark woman.
21:21Now, you are still married, aren't you?
21:23I mean, there hasn't been no divorce and you're not a widow, are you?
21:27Oh, well, that's all right then.
21:29The queen of clubs for you.
21:31Now, surrounded by arts.
21:34That's very good.
21:36Love and friendship.
21:37Oh.
21:38I see a very useful love life coming along for you, Doc.
21:42That's sad.
21:42Now, we have the king of clubs next to the seven of arts.
21:47Now, that means marriage or a loved one.
21:51But you are married, so it's got to be the loved one.
21:54And here is the jack of clubs, a dark man.
21:58And over here, we have the ten of hearts.
22:02More love.
22:03Oh, ho, ho.
22:04These are marvellous cards of yours, Doc.
22:07I mean, your own life is changing before your very eyes.
22:12And next to the ace of arts, the ace of spades.
22:15Now, the ace of spades is a proposal.
22:18But if it's next to the ace of arts, it means marriage.
22:23Yes, but you are married.
22:25So I don't know what that means.
22:27Well, it's Charlie, isn't it?
22:28You're predicting Charlie's coming back.
22:31Well, I don't know.
22:33I suppose it could be.
22:34I mean, as you're married to him, it might be that he's coming back.
22:37Yes, this time, for good.
22:38I feel it.
22:39Oh, I just melt at the thought of it.
22:41Thank you, Ethel.
22:42Oh, yes, but, I mean, last time he came, he went away again, didn't he?
22:46And took all your cash and fags.
22:49Bitter and sweet.
22:50That's life.
22:51I mean, you can't expect only sweetness, can you?
22:53And I've had enough bitterness, so now it's time for me sweetness, ain't it?
22:56Right.
22:57Let's begin.
22:58I thought we had begun.
22:59Yeah, so did I.
23:00We just sunk into embarrassed silence.
23:03Look, why should we be embarrassed?
23:04We're simply sorting out our living quarters and the conditions.
23:08I don't see any problems there.
23:09Well, there seems to be a problem there, doesn't there?
23:11Oh, we wouldn't be embarrassed.
23:12Well, let's dive straight into it.
23:14Practical to a fault, Debs, eh?
23:16Andy, we sort nothing out at this rate.
23:18Maybe I shouldn't be here.
23:19Why shouldn't you be here?
23:20Hmm?
23:21You're Deb's employer?
23:22She's your landlady?
23:23Where else would you be?
23:24Andy, please.
23:25Sentiment is no place in this, love.
23:27Now let's go on with this conference, a bowl meeting, whatever you want to call it.
23:30Right.
23:30Well, it seems to me to be fairly straightforward.
23:32For a number of reasons, Neymar has now moved into the main bedroom.
23:36Oh, the master bedroom, eh?
23:37Or what used to be known as the bridal suite.
23:39That's right, Andy.
23:40And from now on, you will occupy the spare room.
23:44Ah.
23:44Newly decorated?
23:45Smelly of paint?
23:46Well, we can't have everything, can we?
23:48Hmm?
23:48And I will sleep in the front room on the Z bed.
23:51On the Z bed, no less.
23:53I suggest that Neymar pays £30 per week for her room.
23:56Andy, you'll pay £20 per week, in addition to each paying one third of the running expenses.
24:01How do you feel about that, Neymar?
24:03Well, I think that's very fair.
24:05Good.
24:06Andy, how do you feel?
24:07I've never felt so happy in all my life.
24:09Right, anything else?
24:10Yes.
24:11Yes, there is something else.
24:13Something dear to the ladies' hearts I've always heard.
24:16Tidiness, to coin a word.
24:17I think we've all heard of it.
24:18Even you, Neymar.
24:20Right, Andy, I know I'm untidy.
24:21I know.
24:22You don't have to tell me.
24:23I'll make a bigger effort.
24:24Okay, fine, fine, fine.
24:25So that means when I go into the kitchen and pick up the dirty dishes or thrash my way through
24:29a forest of damp underwear, I can say to myself, you are doing your best.
24:33Andy, we've all got to try to live together.
24:35Now, that's what I'm talking about.
24:36Yeah, Andy, I know.
24:38Now, I wonder who that can be, eh?
24:39I'll go.
24:43I'm sorry, Andy.
24:44I know I'm untidy.
24:45I know I'm messy.
24:46I promise I'll make a bigger effort.
24:48It's Roy.
24:49Oh, it's Roy, eh?
24:50What's the prize, Roy?
24:51What, eh?
24:51Prize port champagne.
24:52Isn't that wonderful?
24:53Champagne, eh?
24:54Such extravagance, my man, eh?
24:56What is it?
24:56Andy, shut your mouth and open the bottle.
24:59I'll get the glasses.
25:00Dum-ba-dum-ba.
25:02Do, sit down, Roy.
25:03All right, please, come on, have my seat.
25:04Yeah, thanks, yeah.
25:05I just thought we'd christen the room, you know?
25:08Good idea.
25:09Now, what shall we call it, hmm?
25:10I think it's a lovely idea.
25:12Roy.
25:12Yes?
25:13Bring the bottle in here.
25:14Yes, of course.
25:15Snap, snap, Roy, eh?
25:16My God, he has a beating, isn't he?
25:18I thought we could pour in here and take it through.
25:21Everything all right.
25:23Take no notice of him, he's in a foul mood.
25:25Yes, isn't he?
25:26Now, look, I don't think I'll stay long.
25:28You stay as long as you want.
25:29No, it, er, might be best.
25:31Let me decide what's best as far as Andy's concerned.
25:34What's wrong?
25:36Nothing.
25:37Nothing needs to be wrong.
25:39Anything I can do?
25:40No.
25:41Oh, by the way, I heard this afternoon when the promotion board is,
25:44so it's fingers crossed.
25:46That's great.
25:47Yeah.
25:47Good luck.
25:47I'll need it.
25:48When is it?
25:49Well, it's not for a month or so yet.
25:51Well, it's time enough to get myself together.
25:52Time enough to...
25:54Look, I know they'd never say it, but I'd stand a much better chance
25:57if I was a married man, you know?
26:00We'll have to see what we can do, then.
26:02Ah!
26:03Clean statues, eh?
26:04Oh.
26:05I wonder what was keeping you here.
26:06Ah, just doing it.
26:07Getting waiting for the sound of the pop there,
26:08but playing statues instead, eh?
26:10We'll be straight in.
26:11Here we go.
26:12Whoops!
26:14Now here's to my little room, eh?
26:15You know, freshly decorated smelling of paint,
26:18ideal for the single man.
26:20Hi.
26:20For all the acquaintance be forgotten.
26:25There we go.
26:28Well, cheers, eh?
26:29One, two, three.
26:33There we are.
26:34Cheers.
26:35Lovely.
26:35Cheers.
26:35Cheers, all.
26:37Well, I don't think it would be a lie to say
26:38we did a fairly good job there, you know?
26:40An extremely good job.
26:41Yeah, I must agree.
26:42I must agree.
26:42Not to sound boastful or anything,
26:44but I thought my skirting boards took the prize.
26:46Well, the ceiling isn't that bad,
26:48though I say it myself.
26:49And the door.
26:49The door.
26:50Now, poor fellinger, mate,
26:51compared to my skirting.
26:52Now, there is feather.
26:54Look, er, I really do have to go.
26:56I can't stay.
26:57Must you go?
26:58All right, please, please don't go, eh?
26:59No, no, I must.
27:00I'll see you out.
27:01I'll see you out.
27:01Goodbye.
27:02I can manage.
27:03It's all right.
27:03It's okay.
27:05What's the matter, Andy?
27:06Oh, Nina, what could the matter be, eh?
27:08Perhaps you could tell me.
27:10Look, love, I'd be an old woman before my time,
27:12and I wouldn't wish that on anybody.
27:17I'm off to my room.
27:18More champagne.
27:19No, thanks.
27:20Off to the bridal suite.
27:24Andy.
27:25Look, love, I know what you're going to say.
27:27The implications of it all, eh?
27:29Our room, lecture foreigner.
27:31Remembrance of time has gone past, eh?
27:33Happy little clamberings on the stairs.
27:35Kisses, cuddles.
27:36I was going to say nothing of the salt.
27:38Good.
27:38Because I'm off to my pit.
27:40Andy.
27:41You want some more champagne?
27:43Yeah.
27:43Well, do you mind if I take it upstairs?
27:45Take the bloody bottle with you!
27:47Cheers!
