00:55:27,282 --> 00:55:28,955
I've got you.
676
00:55:29,159 --> 00:55:30,581
Can't stop. In a hurry.
677
00:55:30,786 --> 00:55:34,290
- You always are these days.
- Yes. Sorry.
678
00:55:36,583 --> 00:55:38,176
Hey, don't mess about, mister.
679
00:55:38,377 --> 00:55:41,802
I haven't seen you for months.
Can't you spare me two minutes?
680
00:55:43,924 --> 00:55:45,517
How's the pregnancy going?
681
00:55:45,717 --> 00:55:47,765
Oh, lumping along.
682
00:55:47,970 --> 00:55:49,597
- Still at the flat?
- That's right.
683
00:55:49,805 --> 00:55:51,648
- The three of you?
- Four, soon.
684
00:55:51,849 --> 00:55:54,773
That's not very fair on you,
with a wife, the husband too.
685
00:55:54,977 --> 00:55:58,356
- We share.
- You share? Share what? Him?
686
00:55:58,564 --> 00:56:00,407
The flat.
687
00:56:00,607 --> 00:56:02,860
Well, it all seems very offbeat,
if you ask me.
688
00:56:02,943 --> 00:56:04,570
Oh, it is. It's dead kinky.
689
00:56:04,653 --> 00:56:08,829
We all dress up as Boy Scouts
and beat each other with our woggles.
690
00:56:12,744 --> 00:56:14,963
Get them out of the flat.
I'll pay your rent.
691
00:56:15,163 --> 00:56:16,836
- Can't be done.
- Why not?
692
00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:18,758
The baby.
693
00:56:18,959 --> 00:56:21,053
Look, I haven't had
my answer yet.
694
00:56:21,253 --> 00:56:22,846
- Hey.
- Forgot my hat.
695
00:56:23,046 --> 00:56:26,971
- Come on. Bye-bye.
- Here. Hey.
696
00:56:32,222 --> 00:56:34,566
TED: You know, I won 15 and 6
myself on that race, sir.
697
00:56:34,766 --> 00:56:37,861
- What a winner that horse was.
- And it won't be the last time.
698
00:56:38,061 --> 00:56:40,689
I bet it won't. The wife's laid out
a buffet supper in the dining room.
699
00:56:40,772 --> 00:56:43,070
- Get us a bottle of something, Ted.
- Right you are, sir.
700
00:56:43,275 --> 00:56:46,654
- The Nuits-Saint-Georges, perhaps.
- That sounds good enough for me, sir.
701
00:56:46,862 --> 00:56:49,331
Doris, Mrs Leamington isn't
joining me for supper, is she?
702
00:56:49,531 --> 00:56:50,999
- No, sir.
- Right.
703
00:56:51,199 --> 00:56:53,668
Then you'll sit down with me,
won't you, Ted?
704
00:56:53,869 --> 00:56:56,418
Oh. Thank you very much, sir.
705
00:56:56,622 --> 00:56:59,296
Now, that is the end
of a perfect day.
706
00:56:59,499 --> 00:57:01,217
Mr James' horse won.
707
00:57:01,418 --> 00:57:03,341
Mrs Leamington's gone.
708
00:57:03,545 --> 00:57:05,968
- Gone?
- Gone.
709
00:57:06,173 --> 00:57:07,846
Gone where?
710
00:57:08,592 --> 00:57:09,639
She's dead.
711
00:57:15,849 --> 00:57:17,977
Doris, what a thing to say.
712
00:57:18,185 --> 00:57:21,359
Well, what am I expected
to say, then?
713
00:57:22,189 --> 00:57:24,066
Wait a minute.
714
00:57:25,776 --> 00:57:27,244
Leave it to me, sir.
715
00:57:37,788 --> 00:57:41,258
Doris, what a way in which
to speak. What happened?
716
00:57:41,458 --> 00:57:44,382
Well, I heard this thundering
great crash upstairs,
717
00:57:44,586 --> 00:57:47,556
and thinking it was
that damned cat, up I went.
718
00:57:47,756 --> 00:57:50,259
If I've shooed that cat out once,
I've shooed him out...
719
00:57:50,467 --> 00:57:51,889
Get on with it.
720
00:57:52,094 --> 00:57:55,598
Well, there she was, lying beside
the bed... Mrs Leamington, this is.
721
00:57:55,806 --> 00:57:59,185
With one of her medical books
on the floor where she'd dropped it.
722
00:57:59,393 --> 00:58:02,738
- All blue, her face was...
- Doris, don't go into it.
723
00:58:02,938 --> 00:58:04,485
- Did you fetch the doctor?
- Yes.
724
00:58:04,690 --> 00:58:08,285
He said she was dead straight away.
I helped him to lift her onto the bed.
725
00:58:08,485 --> 00:58:10,487
Oh, she does look awful.

My apologies for that, sir.
Doris is not herself.
729
00:58:18,161 --> 00:58:21,711
Your wife is at peace, Mr James.
It was a quick and merciful release.
730
00:58:24,251 --> 00:58:28,256
- I don't suppose she knew what hit her.
- Something hit her?
731
00:58:28,630 --> 00:58:32,931
- Pardon?
- Oh, I... I see.
732
00:58:35,053 --> 00:58:38,683
- What do we do?
- I'll take care of everything, Mr James.
733
00:58:38,890 --> 00:58:42,611
You're... you're too overcome
with grief and shock.

Yes, that's right.
735
00:58:46,690 --> 00:58:49,739
No doubt you'd like to pay
your last respects?
736
01:00:28,959 --> 01:00:31,883
It was nice of you to come,
Georgy.
737
01:00:32,087 --> 01:00:34,966
Oh, I don't mind funerals.

Oh. That's lovely, Georgy. Yes.

- Hi.

marvellous pictures.

Look, will you two
leave me alone!

01:00:58,989 --> 01:01:01,162
They'll help you understand
the fetal development, Meredith.
744
01:01:01,366 --> 01:01:04,210
I don't want to understand.
I don't want to know anything about it.
745

You know, she won't even
recognise labour when it starts.

- Now, come on, Mummy.
- Shut up!
748
01:01:19,384 --> 01:01:21,762
I'll tell you what this
little episode's taught me.
749
01:01:22,137 --> 01:01:25,107
It's taught me what it feels like
to look like the back end of a bus
750
01:01:25,307 --> 01:01:27,856
and sit around every night
with nothing to do.
751

Oh, here we go again.
Just like my mother.
754
01:01:38,445 --> 01:01:41,824
She always used to cry when the
announcer On the radio said "good night."
755
01:01:42,073 --> 01:01:44,542
Lucky for you you're pregnant,
otherwise I might smack your face.

You think you're one
of the world's beauties.
757

At least I'm not one of its freaks.
758
01:01:49,581 --> 01:01:52,130
- I think I'll smack it anyway!
- GEORGY: No, she's right, Jos.
759
01:01:52,250 --> 01:01:54,628
I am like the back of a bus,
and my face is too fat.
760
01:01:54,836 --> 01:01:57,555
- My hair's like grass. I'm just a mess.
- Oh, shut up. You're not.
761
01:01:57,756 --> 01:01:59,679
- Look, she's just jealous of you.
- Jealous?

And about as exciting
as a half-brick.
784
01:04:05,675 --> 01:04:08,599
I'd always hoped,
when Georgy was a little girl,
785
01:04:08,803 --> 01:04:11,181
that you'd have a son and,
786
01:04:11,264 --> 01:04:15,360
Oh, I don't know,
maybe they'd get married.
787
01:04:15,560 --> 01:04:21,033
I suppose that sounds silly to you,
the idea of anyone wanting Georgy.
788
01:04:24,069 --> 01:04:25,821
No.
789
01:04:27,030 --> 01:04:28,907

Doesn't it worry you sometimes,
the dangers she runs?

- Dangers?
- The people she mixes with.
792

- She's not much more than a child.
- She's as tough as old boots.

Do you know, when she was eight,
she could crack a walnut in her fist.

she's immature.

01:31:35,824 --> 01:31:38,794
First of all, I thought he was
one of these health perverts.
1173
01:31:38,994 --> 01:31:41,588
Then I noticed he was keeping
himself away from the shore,
1174
01:31:41,788 --> 01:31:45,418
tiring himself out, you see,
getting weaker and weaker.
1175
01:31:47,043 --> 01:31:49,637
Then the river police
came in a launch,
1176
01:31:49,838 --> 01:31:52,307
and by that time,
he'd gone under.
1177
01:31:53,008 --> 01:31:55,477
They cruised around for a bit,
then they went away,
1178
01:31:55,677 --> 01:31:58,226
to get a net, I suppose.
1179
01:32:01,933 --> 01:32:04,231
(SHIP'S WHISTLE BLOWING)
1180
01:32:08,148 --> 01:32:11,948
I never felt suicidal, Georgy,
till the last few weeks.
1181
01:32:13,153 --> 01:32:14,700
Didn't you try to save him?
1182
01:32:17,615 --> 01:32:20,368
I don't want to save anybody.
1183
01:32:21,244 --> 01:32:23,212
That's where you're a freak,
George.
1184
01:32:23,413 --> 01:32:27,759
Not being big and ugly and all that.
It's this wanting to save people.
1185
01:32:40,638 --> 01:32:42,766
MAN ON SPEAKER:
...where we will have a five-minute stay.
1186
01:32:42,974 --> 01:32:46,274
I would like to point out that
the commentaries on these vessels
1187
01:32:46,478 --> 01:32:47,980
are entirely voluntary.
1188
01:32:48,188 --> 01:32:51,738
Therefore, should any of you
care to appreciate it,
1189
01:32:51,941 --> 01:32:55,286
you may do so, and I will
pass among you with a hat,
1190
01:32:55,487 --> 01:32:58,457
for which I should like
to thank you very much.
1191
01:32:58,656 --> 01:33:00,909
Thank you very much.
1192
01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:15,174
JOS: I love her. I love her. I love her.
I do. What can I do?
1193
01:33:15,381 --> 01:33:19,011
Hey, I am a desperate man, missus.
I'll stop at nothing.
1194
01:33:19,260 --> 01:33:21,354
I'm gonna strip stark naked
if you don't come home with me.
1195
01:33:21,554 --> 01:33:24,603
Go away, Jos. Go away, or I'll cry.
1196
01:33:24,808 --> 01:33:27,277
Really? How very peculiar.
1197
01:33:27,936 --> 01:33:31,611
You mean salt tears will actually
fall down your cheeks?
1198
01:33:31,815 --> 01:33:33,192
Shall I cry?
1199
01:33:33,399 --> 01:33:35,697
I'm told it's quite easy.
1200
01:33:44,077 --> 01:33:47,877
It's no good. Nothing happens.
Can you teach me?
1201
01:33:51,292 --> 01:33:53,795
Hey, fat face, I'm talking to you.
1202
01:33:56,381 --> 01:34:00,181
I don't think I've cried since I fell off
the seat of my bicycle when I was eight.
1203
01:34:03,221 --> 01:34:07,351
You're not laughing, are you?
No, you're not.
1204
01:34:07,559 --> 01:34:09,402
Other people might think
you were, but not me.
1205
01:34:09,602 --> 01:34:14,073
I can see through what other people
might think was a laugh. Just like that.
1206
01:34:14,274 --> 01:34:15,901
That was meant to be my fingers,
1207
01:34:16,109 --> 01:34:19,158
only, you see, because I can't click
my fingers, I use my tongue instead.
1208
01:34:19,362 --> 01:34:21,114
(LAUGHING)
1209
01:34:21,364 --> 01:34:22,536
I'm like Peter Pan.
1210

(HONKING)
1211
01:34:23,950 --> 01:34:27,124
He couldn't click his, you know.
It's very embarrassing.
1212
01:35:21,216 --> 01:35:24,470
Georgy. Georgy.
1213
01:35:26,262 --> 01:35:28,060
Here, Georgy.
1214
01:35:30,058 --> 01:35:33,062
Georgy, could I talk to you
for a minute?
1215
01:35:33,269 --> 01:35:35,488
Come inside.
1216
01:35:35,730 --> 01:35:37,403
Come inside.
1217
01:35:43,571 --> 01:35:44,697
(RAPPING ON GLASS)
1218
01:35:44,781 --> 01:35:48,285
- Where are we going?
- Nowhere.
1219
01:35:48,493 --> 01:35:52,214
I just want to be sure
of your undivided attention.
1220
01:35:52,413 --> 01:35:55,963
Oh, I see.
It's abduction now.
1221
01:35:56,334 --> 01:35:58,553
He's gone, hasn't he?
1222
01:35:58,753 --> 01:36:00,346
Jos? Yeah.
1223
01:36:00,546 --> 01:36:03,220
What are you going to do now?
1224
01:36:04,217 --> 01:36:06,185
Don't know.
1225
01:36:07,262 --> 01:36:09,731
I've been thinking.
1226
01:36:13,559 --> 01:36:15,061
What?
1227
01:36:15,645 --> 01:36:18,694
I've been thinking that the terms
of my proposed contract
1228
01:36:18,898 --> 01:36:21,697
could be amended to cover this.
1229
01:36:21,901 --> 01:36:23,619
Oh, don't you start all that again.
1230
01:36:23,736 --> 01:36:25,864
I've had nothing else
for the last six months.
1231
01:36:26,072 --> 01:36:29,121
Just contracts, contracts,
contracts.
1232
01:36:30,451 --> 01:36:33,170
They're still going to
take the baby away.
1233
01:36:33,371 --> 01:36:35,749
- No, not necessarily...
- Stop the car!
