If something is wrong in my relationship, you always say.
That's a lie. You actually don't know me, Sam.
So this is why I've lost you.
How's it going with Georgia?
Amazing.
Robbie's gonna be doing drag. Yeah.
Such a show of your confidence.
She's here, bitches.
My name is Miss Reality Check.
Why don't I arrange a double date for you?
How tall are you guys? I'm six foot one.
Enjoy yesterday? I did.
What are you thinking? Drinks.
Drinks? Yeah, let's do it.
Miles texted her and asked her out for drinks.
I'm gutted that he's done that.
You literally just dragged me through the mud.
I don't know how I can defend you any more.
Well, I've definitely learnt... I don't wanna hear it.
I need to go and enjoy the rest of my night.
We haven't really spoken.
Feels like it's a thing now. Are you asking me on a date?
Grow up. No, no, no, what?
Wow, you're very flexible.
This is when you get jealous. What?
Are you blushing? Cheating ex - what a lovely title.
What's he trying to gain from that? It's another level of petty.
I want you to be my girlfriend. Sound like a prince, don't I?
Oh, shut up. Is that not embarrassing?
You seem pretty angry. Ooh, bitchy.
I would never do that to you.

Yeah!
I got to run but I'll catch you guys later.
Thank you so much. Thank you guys so much.
I'm out of breath.
That was amazing.
I've embarrassed myself yet again.
I will always remember you coming out of that elevator like... Damn!
Why was that so dramatic?
I was iconic.
I was like, "Damn." I had to take it to the next level.
You were feeling yourself.
Yeah, this has just been a year of growth really.
I had what you're having. It's called a gay awakening.
Gay awakening. Like, you are... Ta-da-da-da!
Rainbows. Jazz hands.
No, but literally, you know... It's so true.
Yeah. I'm almost existing in like two different worlds.
Like, on the one hand, I'm openly gay,
doing drag and all of these things. Yeah.
And on the other hand, I'm studying law.
I want to be a lawyer. Like, I'm very serious about that.
And I love that too.
You're a double-sided coin. And that's fine.
MUSIC: No One Knows You Better Than Me by Runrummer
What do we think about this one? Ooh, I like it. Date night vibes.
I knew you were going on a date, but I need more details.
So, Liv set up Melissa and I on a lovely blind double date. OK.
And then Charlie... OK.
And Charlie... Charlie was the blonde one.
Blondes aren't normally my type.
But there was a little vibe going on, I have to say. There was.
They were looking into each other's eyes. No, no.
Fireworks flying everywhere. No, no. Sorry. It was... It was quite sweet.
Where's he from? How old is he? What's his blood type?
27. Blonde. From Parsons Green. So he's from Chelsea.
27, blonde, Parsons Green. Got a lovely job.
Yeah, he... Liv has passed his number on to me.
We've exchanged a few messages - he wants to see me again.
He's planned a lovely little date night.
It's gonna be like... I kind of count this as the first date.
Yeah, I agree. Because it's just him and I. Yeah.
He's taken the initiative,
he's planning it all, and we'll be alone, so...
That is also very, very sexy.
Do we think that he's gonna do a lovely dark setting with loud music
so you can get really close and have a flirt? I don't know.
Cause that's essential for me for a first date.
OK, any dating tips? It has to be kind of dark. OK, dating tips.
What are your...? Yeah, what's your like go-to?
First date - loads of alcohol.
You just have to get hammered, because it's so awkward
and it's the only way through the whole thing.
So... You do. Loads of alcohol.
No, don't be battered. You know...
No, he might not wanna see me again.
No, you wanna be happy-tipsy - that's all you need do.
Yeah, liquid courage, a bit of liquid courage.
Exactly, and, honestly, what we did on that double date...
Was perfect. Is perfect.
Robbie's party was so much fun. I had the best time.
Yeah, it was really fun, apart from me and Miles
had a little awkward encounter.
Oh, God, tell us. I just thought he was being
a bit of a selfish arsehole at the minute. About what?
All these girls. I'm disappointed in him, I really am. I just think...
He always talks about, "I wanna do things differently,
"I don't wanna do it any more. I wanna be in a relationship."
And it's the same behaviour. I said he needs to take a step back now.
It's hard when you kind of get invested in the girl he's dating,
cos then you like... All the time! ..have a friendship with them
and then they get upset and then it's hard for you.
They befriend me and I end up getting quite close to them,
I end up liking them, and then I feel really awkward.
I do get put in the middle of it all. Yep.
Sort your shit out, take a step back, stop these empty dates.
It's so boring for us all at this point. Yeah.
I'm going out with him tomorrow night and Liv.
Are you? Where are you going? Don't know why they didn't invite you.
Quite rude, isn't it? That is a bit rude. Where was my invite?
He's probably rutting a bit - "I have to get the other girls on side.
"Let's invite Melissa and Liv out." Do you know what I mean?
I don't know any more.
I think it's just time to grow up now.
MUSIC: On The Run Again by Robin Loxley and Smudge Mason
I'm genuinely so happy for you, Julius. Like, I really am.
Yeah, I'm in a place where everything in life is going so well.
Yeah. I feel so happy because...
And on top of everything I'm doing work-wise,
I've got someone who is by my side. It's amazing.
Amazing. She is honestly one of the best girls I've ever met.
And I know how much you wanted just a good relationship for so long.
Like, not even in a cringy way.
Yeah. But also do you know what I did?
Like, I took the pressure off.
You approached it with just being open-minded and not...
I didn't... I wasn't searching for it. I took the pressure off.
You weren't stalking her. Let's not go back to the days of you and I!
Um, but I wasn't. I genuinely... I genuinely wasn't expecting it,
and out of the blue I randomly bumped into her
and I was like, "Oh, my God, there's this amazing girl,"
and suddenly felt something. Oh, I'm so happy for you!
Um, I'm gonna... Well, I'm gonna take...
No, no, no, what? What? What are you gonna do?
I'm gonna... No, I'm gonna do a little date. OK. Tomorrow.
What did you think I was gonna say?
I dunno. Ask her to be your girlfriend or something like that.
It's on the cards.
OK.
Come tomorrow there might be...
I might be off the market.
Oh, yeah, Julius! Whoo!
Don't.
MUSIC: Dive In by Clubhouse
So, missing the boyfriend? I am, actually.
Yeah? Well, because we live together
so it's weird not having him there and I feel a bit lonely.
Yeah, I've noticed... there's a lot of plants, like...
It's a lot and it's a lot of watering.
It's a mini forest in there. Yeah, and I have to clear it up.
Hello. Oh, hey. How you doing? Are you good?
I'm good. How are you? So good to see you. Nice to meet you.
Miles. Miles - Charlie. Nice to meet you. How's things? Good.
Charlie is a friend of mine who I set up on a double date with Ruby.
Yeah. Oh, nice. Yeah, a lot of fun.
How'd it go? Apparently, you worked your magic.
It was good. We'll see where it goes. Seeing her tomorrow. Lovely.
What are you gonna do for the second date? I'm thinking a cocktail bar.
Nice. Maybe a rooftop. Ooh.
Quite intimate. What about a jazz..?
Oh, shut up. Oh, shut up. Is that your thing?
So you've done that. Scrap the rooftop. Now I get it.
I understand why all these poor girls...
It works. It works. Clearly. We seem to have the same playbook.
The only club. Straight to a rooftop. Straight to the rooftop.
Not too much of the same behaviour. I'm joking.
OK, what about...? So, what do you like about Ruby?
Very easy going. I mean, undoubtedly a beautiful girl.
Like, that's obvious. Um, I don't know.
I just feel like there's more to learn.
It's the first time I think I've looked forward to -
this sounds dreadful - but looking forward to a date.
That's really sweet. That's really sweet, though. Yeah, so...
Fuck, you're a sweet dude.
Wait, hang on, what the hell's going on with you and Emily by the way?
I don't know. It's upsetting because I've been there a lot
throughout situations. Yeah.
Right? Emily and I are like super close - we used to live together.
She's like one of my best friends.
When I've heard...that she wasn't really having my back,
I was a bit like, "Oh, OK."
That's the thing - surely, best mates,
surely, you should be her priority, right?
I think... I hope
she kind of sees it from my side a little bit
and I... Have you spoken to her since?
No.

Yeah, exactly. No way.
Oh, you're the best boy. Look, look, look.
What is going on? Hello. Hi.
Have you given birth without me knowing? Yeah, I just gave birth.
What's with the creepy doll?
Well, OK, the thing is uh, Clyde is not used to babies.
At the NCT class,
she suggested, after I said that Clyde was very jealous,
buy a doll and pretend it's the baby and introduce them slowly.
Clyde is so obsessed with James.
Try and just hold the baby and just like pretend it's a real one.
Hello, bubba.
DOG BARKS Oh. You're the best boy.
No... No. No. You're...

So are you kind of over it now, over being pregnant?
I'm over being pregnant.
Fed up. I'm too fat, too swollen, where I start to get...
..to wear compression tights.
You should hear her try and get these compression tights on.
Oh, yeah. Is it fun to watch?
Oh, yeah. 15 minutes every morning. It's like a dying cat.
15 minutes. Something going on.
But you still put in all the effort. You came to Robbie's birthday.
Did you see Julius brought a lady friend?
Yeah. Oh, God, yeah. Apparently, they're in love.
Like, no, he said he was falling for her.
But also... I mean, Sam's new hobby is tormenting Julius.
Yeah, also, since I've been... Are you obsessed with Julius?
I just kind of took the mickey a little bit.
This is my best piece of work.

But I rate it. It's fantastic, banterous, great humour. Well done.
It's another level of petty. Thank you. I really...
I appreciate it, team, I really do.

Cheers to us. You can join too.

Well, obviously we met... We met in the coffee shop and then we went...
Then George came to one of my... And what was nice, I went travelling
and then we started... I found myself just wanting to chat to you.
Travelling? You went on a family holiday.

Sorry... You didn't go and find yourself in some Buddhist church.
Sorry, what? I'm not saying I was on the Eurotunnel,
or whatever it's called. I went travelling.
That's what that is - I go on a plane, I went travelling.
And we just ended up talking quite a lot when I was there.
The conversation just flowed instantly, which was nice.
Oh, guys, I'm actually so happy for you. That was just so sweet.
But you've got...? Your birthday's coming up, no? Yeah, it's very soon.
OK, so what are we doing? I don't know.
I'm at that point with birthdays where I'm like
I'm not really too sure what to do.
You know what that means when someone says,
"I'm really not sure. I feel like I should..."
Can you throw me a birthday? It's, "I want a surprise birthday
"and I don't want to plan it." Please?
How great is a surprise party? You don't have to do anything.
I'll act so surprised if you do me one. Do you want to plan your own?
OK right. I actually have to bring this up because...
Oh, no. I have been sent Sam Prince's TikToks of your TikToks.
Mmm.
Have you seen them?
Yeah.
And what is going on there? Is it like TikTok battle?
No, I just blocked him. OK. Cos he's a kid, so...
I mean, it's a classic Sam Prince move
but how do you actually feel about it? You don't care?
Fortunately, I've got a strong enough esteem that I look at it
and laugh. Yeah. And he's clearly got a lot of time on his hands.
He told me about his two businesses he's got, which is good for him,
but it's... Spend time on your businesses.
Spend time on cultivating an actual relationship
where you can actually be loyal with Inga, like...
I hope... Like, do, focus on bettering yourself and being good
and focusing on actually progressing in life.
He's so irrelevant, he's acting like a child.
It's like, "You're 30-year-old man making TikToks about another man."
Grow up.

Seems quite genuine.
I'm like, "Is there gonna be a first-date kiss?"
Yes, he will. I always kiss on the first date. He's got confidence.
I always launch it. Half an hour in I'm like...
Half an hour in! Half an hour in? That quick?
Time schedule, here we go.
If I know, I know. I'm like, "Just let's just get on with it,"
otherwise it's just wasting time.
We're wasting time! Wasting a lovely date!
Oh, my God, Melissa. You're in a rush, Melissa.
Do you fancy Miles? You can't turn it on. Can you guys go on a date?
I don't fancy Miles. Please, I honestly... Oh, that hurts.
Can you guys just go on one date? You don't fancy a little bit?
No, I think you're so great and I think you're so beautiful...
Tell him you fancy him. So, why don't you fancy me?
Oh, I can if you want me to.
No! I could try my best.
I honestly... Please can you guys go on one date for me?
Ah, yeah, we will for you. We'll do it for you.
For me. We'll do one date. Yeah. You can play a bit of footsies.
Yeah. Yeah. Show me a good time, Miles. I deserve it, come on.
Did you get any messages from Em?
We still haven't really spoken.
Shouldn't have walked away from me from the night.
When I confronted her about it, I was like,
"I'm here to have a conversation with my friend,
"This is not an argument."
It must be pretty awkward if she's not here with us at dinner.
Feels like it's a thing now.

Why are you all suited and booted?
This is very different to what I last saw you in.
I'm doing basically like an internship.
Oh, you got one. Yeah. It's a mini pupillage.
I'm dipping my toes in like all the different areas of law
at the moment. So I'm gonna do some commercial work experience,
some criminal work experience, I'm currently doing the latter.
It is so funny that you can go from
Miss Reality Check wearing ten-inch heels...
I enjoyed it up until I reached the tenth hour wearing those heels
and I panicked. Horrendous.
And I was like, "Get me out."
They felt like pigs' trotters. Like, they don't feel like...
After a few hours you cannot feel your feet.
It's an experience that I did not enjoy, I have to say.
Yeah. Being a girl isn't all...
No. ..fun and games. No, it isn't. There's a lot of pain in there.
I got so stuck in.
Yeah. Voguing, doing drag, studying law...
It's all a bit much.
But it's your reality. It's like, for me, this is who I am.
I go to work, I'm creative, I can dress how I want to do,
like, my life, my work, my play are all intertwined. Mmm.
And yours is so different from that. Mmm.
And I think that's maybe where you're having your anxieties.
It's...how do you start...? Oh, do you think?
It's such a conservative profession.
Being gay is perfectly fine.
Um, but I've spent so much time...
It's OK.
Mm.
I think the last thing I want is...
The last thing I want is who I am to get in my way.
Yeah.
The dating game's a weird world. It's changed. It really has.
I've not met anyone for the last 18 months
that's even remotely made me like...
So, actually, my friends get annoyed at me
because I don't go on many first dates - second dates, sorry.
But I made it to second date.
You did. Congratulations.
Cheers to that. Cheers. Cheers to making it to the second date.
I wonder why. Mm. Well, I don't, but... I'm joking.
Oh, you don't wanna...you don't wanna know why. I do.
Oh, you do. I do wanna know. OK. Go on.
I was naturally drawn to you. Were you? Um, yeah. I genuinely...
I felt like we had a little vibe. Yeah, a little vibe.
And I also need a girl to have fun with.
Yeah, 100%.
So, in terms of like where you're at now... Yeah.
..obviously, you mentioned on the double date that you were
in a space now where you felt like you could potentially be
with the right person
Do you know, I think I love...
I love being in love and that's really... Yeah, who doesn't?
..cringe again, but... No, it's not.
And I'm like a bit of hopeless romantic. Yeah.
But at the same time you wanna wait until you find something special
with someone. Yeah. My mum is like,
"Charlie like, what's wrong with you?
"Your three best mates in the whole world are married.
"When are we like...? Yeah. When's the train moving a little bit?"
I love that, though. I speak to my mum like all day every day. Yeah.
Right, so you're gonna think I'm crazy, but I went to see a medium...
Yeah. ..for a reading.
Yeah. I actually speak to this medium once a week.
Oh, wow. What's his name?
Dave? Dave? Dave the medium?
He speaks to me, Liv, Melissa, all of us.
Oh, my God. I got his number from Liv.
Has he got a slot for me or what?
I can pass his number on. Dave.
Yeah. Dave the medium, right.
But recently he said to me that the person I'm gonna marry..
Yeah. ..his name begins with A.
Do you have a middle name? Aaron.
Yeah. Aaron? Yeah.
Are you sure? No, it's not Aaron but let's go with that.
What is your middle name? William. Very English.
Charles William.
Sound like a prince, don't I? Um, OK, so no A.
No. Do you think you got me sussed out?
I feel like I can read you quite well.
Do you feel like I fancy you?
Um...
Yeah.
Correct. You do.
Yeah, I do, yeah, yeah. Well done.

So how are things with you and Miles actually now,
because you said you guys weren't really talking?
We haven't really spoken
but he's currently on a night out with the girls,
which is quite bizarre, but anyway...
The other day, he messaged me and was like, "What are you doing?"
And the weather was horrific, so he literally came over and we had...
You invited him round? It was the most random thing.
I didn't think anything of it. I was like, "What...?"
I guess he has really been taking the time to sit
and reflect on things/message you.
He's done the opposite, which is so great.
So great. Maybe. Classic Miles.
So he comes round, we have a glass of wine together,
chatted for hours,
and we get on really well and nothing happened.
Oh, my God. You're telling me
he came round to your house and you drank wine
and there wasn't even like a close call -
not even a kiss or a little moment?
No. No kiss and that's what was quite nice.
Nothing happened between us two. We get on really well.
Right.
But I'm not sure if it's just friends.
Like, it's not going any... Do you fancy him?
Of course I fancy him, but like doesn't mean like I'm...
So that's a yes. No, I don't emotionally fancy him.
Just remember that it was only very recently that he brought Ella over
and they were speaking for God knows how long
and then, you know, they were kind of lining up to be
a full-blown relationship.
Obviously, it didn't work out but... Yeah.
Girl after girl after girl after girl. Yeah.
Like, is he ever gonna take a break?
If he says he's looking for just a friendship,
I don't personally buy it.
At the back of my mind, I'm slightly nervous cos I really like you
and I don't want you to be another girl that then in a month's time
you go...you're in the same position as Ella and Issy.
I would hate that. No. For both of you.
Of course, cos you kept being in that situation,
and for me I think I won't allow myself
to get into that situation where it's like...
I will not put anything on the table unless I thought something
was happening naturally.
And if it doesn't work out, it doesn't work, and that's that.
But you just don't wanna be another girl.
You just don't.

I mean we've... It's probably the first time we've sat down in

Not that I ever hated you but I firmly disliked you at one point.
But we're over that.
Yeah, past the firmly disliking stage, which is great. Yeah.
Nice and what do you do?
Work alongside my mum in kind of like property

I'm so happy for Rube.
Let's see where it goes. We'll have fun either way.
I see you've invited everyone. Sam and Inga.
I always think it's good to, you know, it's unity, isn't it?
Good to invite everyone and... Something Sam Prince wouldn't do.
Ooh, bitchy, here we go. Yeah, but Sam Prince is fun so
if you wanna have a good party, you may as well invite Sam Prince.
As we go along there's a lot of bitching
so I'll tell you who these people are in short bites.
Sam and Julius don't like each other.
Sam will make funny TikToks with Julius. Ah.
You can't bring it up cos when I brought it up it was quite...
No, but you laugh about it surely.
I just saw it and just went, all right.
I'm not... It doesn't keep me up at night. I genuinely saw it...
It keeps me up at night. I saw it, I laughed a little bit.
But I saw it, laughed at it, blocked him so I don't have to
see him do it again and so...
Anyway, moving onto positive things, how is Georgia? She's amazing.
No, she's so great. I don't know why I'm answering for you.
Right, tell me, what happened.
It was actually amazing. I was going to ask her out and then...
And then? I get a message from Sam Prince. No!
Saying what? Saying what? Saying, "Miss you, bro."
I mean, it was just like, it kind of killed the...
Julius, what are you doing?
It's just...it's just pathetic. Yeah. What I don't understand,
though, why did that one text from Sam stop you from asking her
to be your girlfriend? I don't particularly wanna ask
Georgia out when his names are muttered in the same evening.
It didn't ruin my night, it just left a bit of
a bitter taste in my mouth so didn't feel right.
Are you blushing? Am I blushing? What do you mean?
I can see a little spark.
He seems like a really nice guy.
He's really nice. If you were to just have, you know,
a one-on-one scenario you'd actually probably like him.
Do you think he's fit? Yeah, I do think he's fit.
But obviously I need to get to know him a little bit.
Yeah. I mean, I'm sure he finds you... Is that not weird
if I speak to him? If I cared I would tell you.
OK. There's no harm in getting to know him.
And it's also great for Miles
to see that I'm kind of doing my thing, you know.
Listen, keep those options open.
I actually think you could be the first girl
to give Miles a taste of his own medicine. Mmm.
Cheers. Cheers.
Did you enjoy last night? Yeah, I did, it was fun.
Yeah? Pleasantly surprised? Yeah, I was.
So am I planning this third date, then? I think you are.
Yeah? I'll plan this one, you plan the fourth.
OK. Sound good? See how date three goes. OK.
Verity's party. Verity's party.
How things have changed. Didn't think we'd be here.
No, great to be here.
Dressed in winter clothes.
It is winter now. Although I do like the hat, I must say.
Ooh. Ooh.
Hi. Hey. Hi. Hi.
I just thought I'd come over and introduce myself.
So hello, I'm Georgia. Hi. Lovely to meet you.
Are we just kind of all putting this...the crap behind us
and can we just move on as adults?
Hey, we've just met... I know but I...
I have no crap, I have no... There's no... I mean...
I just wanna be Julius' friend. I just wanna, I just...
I feel like I joke with him and he takes it really serious and deep.
And I feel like I'm just joking around, having a good time.
But is it a joke? I mean, it's not funny. Do you find it funny?
I mean, I think it's all in jest, it's just banter, isn't it?
Yeah, I mean, I find it pretty funny.
I think people just find it mean. Really?
From an outsider's point of view it does seem really petty.
Yeah, maybe. It's very petty.
You're what, a 27-year-old man and you're making...? I'm 25.
OK, well as long as we can just all move past that
and be friends, then fine.
Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't... Is he upset?
He's not upset. He's not, like....
That would mean he actually had to feel something.
I think he just now is just like numb to it
and doesn't care. Like, we're all grown ups here,
it's just boring really. Yeah.
But if Julius doesn't care and is not upset
and he's really...just like doesn't give a shit...
..what's the whole point of this conversation?
Why is he talking about it on podcasts?
Why can't he just laugh about it? I think people...
"Haha, it's quite funny."
From my perspective, I just don't really understand
the intention behind anything that you're doing.
What are you trying to gain apart from a reaction?
I think I definitely want a reaction, for sure.
But why, what are you doing? I'm just... If I'm honest...
Are you bored? So bored. I've got so much time on my hands.
Get a job. I've got so much time on my hands and I'm just here to...
Is that not embarrassing?
It's fine. Like you said, you're a 25-year-old man.
I enjoy it, I enjoy it.
He's got three businesses, he does have a job.
But he has so much time to make TikToks.
In my spare time I take my TikToks very seriously,
especially when they're about Julius.
If I'm honest, I really enjoy it. What, enjoy being a dick?
Well, he's been a dick to me and I just feel like...
So you're just going to create shit content and put it out there?
It's actually really good content. I mean, people do love it
and we've got a million views, like, people do enjoy these videos.
What, so you only get views if you put Julius in your video,
is that what you're saying? Incorrect but...
But I think that's exactly what just came out your mouth.
Are you angry? You seem pretty angry.
No, I'm actually really quite calm. You do seem very angry.
I'm quite calm. Are you sure? Yeah.
You came in quite passive aggressive. Yeah.
Maybe not even passive aggressive, just quite aggressive.
I actually came in with all good intentions
so that's why I came over to say hi. Well, I'm sorry if it upset you.
I hope you're OK, I hope Julius is OK and I think this is...
You just sound so insincere. No, I mean it, honestly.
Everything that comes out of your mouth is just a lie.
Huh? Well...
Look, I'm going to leave you to your really busy businesses
and I'm going to go.
I've got a feeling I might like her more than Julius.
I've met your new boyfriend.
Right, we've been on a date and a half.
I heard. Um... Charlie. He's lovely. Yes, very lovely.
Did you get a good vibe? How was the date?
Yeah, it was really fun, the conversation. There was
no awkward silences at all. That's good. I felt like a lot of
the time I was laughing... That's good. ..which is a great sign.
He definitely is very different to what you normally go for.
Yeah, but maybe that's where I've gone wrong. Well, not always wrong.
Not always. Not the whole thing. Well, a little bit wrong.
No, but he...he, like, seems really exactly what you needed. Yeah.
Hello! Oh, hey! Hi. How are you? Hey, how are you?
Good, thank you. You good? Hi. Hello.
How are you? I'm good, thank you. You look lovely.
Thank you. So do you. What's going on in the party? Any goss?
Uh, no, the only thing is that, obviously, like, Emily
and I are still not talking so... Yeah. ..bit awkward but...
Well, you guys are both being very stubborn. I think she's waiting
for you to come up to her, vice versa. Mm.
And she mentioned that you guys weren't really talking.
Oh, really? What did she say?
Kind of like saying, like, you know,
"Be careful with Miles" kind of thing.
I was like, "Everyone keeps saying this to me."
Um, maybe, like, "Stay clear."
Again ,I feel like every move I do now is being watched, like...
It's like, "Oh, what's Miles gonna do next?"
It's, like... We've said this before. Yeah. We do get along.
Would you go on a proper date?
Uh, talking of dates, actually,
Emily tried to set me up with Harvey.
No!
What?! What? Harvey?! Yeah. He's a nice guy.
This is when you get jealous.
She's trying to set you up with Harvey, her ex, who cheated on her?
It seems a bit...weird. But why wouldn't... Like,
why would she promote me to go for her ex that cheated on her
and not for like her best friend? Well, that's the question
I ask myself at the moment, which I don't even know the answer to
because, clearly, my best friend is not being my best friend.
As a person, she talks very highly about you.
Well, it doesn't seem like it.
She knows, like, so much about things that people don't know,
so for me to hear now, all of a sudden, she's, like,
saying these things...
It's... Yeah, it fucking sucks, to be honest.
MUSIC: Clandestino by Nitefire
Ah, god, we've had some memories in here, haven't we, Harv?
We have indeed. Sorry, that's weird. And we're standing in the spot
that you guys started... Not quite the spot. It was round there.
There's a more romantic spot there. OK, that's better.
I was worried this wasn't gonna be awkward and I fucking love it.
I really do. So, this is... This is potentially a thing.
It's just two single people. It's just... Yeah.
Anything could be a thing at that point. I'm in for it.
Yeah. I mean, yeah. Who knows? How far we've come.
Am I weird for doing this? A little bit, yeah.
Mmm. Quite like it. It's cool, cool that we're here.
Miles is here as well. Have you spoken to him?
No. I haven't had a conversation with him yet. But I'm sure I will.
Um, so I spoke to him yesterday at Verity's... Oh, yeah.
..and I was saying how, like... Kind of joking that Emily was kind
of, you know, saying, like, "What about Harvey?" kind of thing.
His face literally dropped
and I was a bit taken aback. I was like,
"What have I just said that has really made him so annoyed?"
He was like, "Why would Emily think her cheating ex is better
"than her best friend?" Fucking hell.
Like, was getting angry. Get over it.
No, he's clearly taken it the wrong way.
Cheating ex?! What a lovely title.
I...I just don't get why he's... Like, he can defend himself.
Why is he attacking me? It's a bit much.
MUSIC: Vertigo by Raphael Lake
What the fuck?
I'm wearing it for you. I wanted to show some solidarity.
In your own way. I mean, I've got
to say that I feel rather uncomfortable.
Well, you can unbutton it.
Really? Am I doing it wrong?
No. Are we in a...a meeting?
That's how it feels. What are we discussing? Are we buying a home?
We're discussing you. I mean, one minute, you can wear a suit.
And the next minute...
..you're like me.
Maybe this is what you should turn up to work in.
I don't think they'd...they'd accept that.
Why? That's not... Wow!
You're very flexible.
That's not work attire. You should know!
No, I'm just so proud of this journey that you're on
and I think... Thanks, baby. ..you should be proud of yourself as well.
I'm waving your flag
and you deserve everything that you're gonna get.
Look, don't support me too much. You don't have to do this again.
No need to wear suits in support. Maybe I like it.
Maybe I'll be coming for your gig.
Don't you dare!
Joel, it's, uh...it's different doing life not alone, you know?
Yeah.
I'm very grateful for your existence in my life.
It's the least I can do.
Hello. Hello, look at this. It's just us now. Yeah.
Quite nice. That was...that was nice though. It was.
I think it's really rare to see, like, an ex be
so kind of chill with their ex.
I mean, it is nice that we're at that stage.
Yeah. You know, she's so moved on with her boyfriend and,
yeah, so am I, which is lovely. Yeah, it was really nice to meet you
the other day. It's nice I'm actually now in front of you.
Your eyes are incredible. Thank you. They are. It's so weird.
I feel like cos I haven't been, like, dating,
I find this whole thing really weird.
OK. When you've been with someone for so long and then you're, like...
I dunno. There's definitely some cobwebs to be dusted out.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. What's your, like, perfect ideal first date?
I quite like sort of something a bit interactive, like
going and doing a, you know...
..like, a little mini golf or comedy club, comedy club's good.
I've never done either. Ah. I find that... Yeah, but...
Comedy club's a fun one. Really?! Yeah. Well, we could go.
So, are you asking me on a date?
Yeah. I think I am, yeah.
Right, let's do it. Let's do it. I look forward to it.
Likewise. Cheers. Cheers.
MUSIC: To Break Through by Roscoe Williamson
Emily and I are essentially avoiding each other.
Oh, she's...she's made up her mind, hasn't she?
She thinks that you're in the wrong. It's just the fact that I feel like
I don't even have my best friend any more.
Hello. Oh, hey, how are you?
I'm good. You OK?
Yeah. I think you two need to clear the air. Yeah, I agree.
I'm gonna leave you two to it. OK. Yeah.
Hello, Miles.
MUSIC: To Break Through By Roscoe Williamson
This is...this is the highlight of my day.
I feel very calm. I feel very at ease with you. Yeah.
I like that, you know... What, that I boost you?
You boost me. You boost me. Um...
..Verity messaged me earlier saying, "Thank you for coming."
How you feeling after chatting with Sam and Inga?
Fine. I mean, it was such an irrelevant part of the whole day.
Mm. Like, on reflection, the whole thing was just pathetic.
Do you know what I found quite sad is that whenever you've spoken
about Inga you've kind of...you've spoken about her with respect,
you know, and that you valued your friendship in the past with her?
And she just stood there sniggering at the whole conversation.
Because do you think she would've acted like that if he wasn't there?
No, probably not. Anyway, as we sip over our fine wine...
..I just... God, I'm getting a bit nervous. I guess, I...I guess...
You're getting tongue tied?
Um...I...
..I actually do appreciate you having my back,
even though you didn't need to. Even though that...
It means a lot.
And, like...
..as soon as I met you, I felt there's something different.
Attraction aside and how beautiful I think you are,
I love how much we laugh together.
Like, I haven't had anyone else on my mind
since pretty much the first date we had.
Yeah.
And I just...
I want you to be my girlfriend.
So, I don't even need to think about the answer to that question.
Come here.
MUSIC: Magnificent by Oh Wonder
Were you nervous? Yeah. Well, you gave a good speech.
Yeah, I'm nervous cos I... Yeah.
Cos it means a lot, right?
My heart's...my heart's still racing so...
Cheers to us.
It's really upsetting to listen to Melissa and Ruby
and Yas, hearing them say, you know,
"She's disappointed in you," and, "classic Miles,"
and, "here we go again," and Yas is coming to me
and saying that she felt like you were warning her off me
and being like, "You should go for Harvey,"
and I'm like, "What?! So, she'd rather..." No.
"..push her ex, who cheated on her, than her best friend."
It feels like, OK, you're very against me,
and it's like, "OK, well, no, don't go for Miles.
"He's not a good guy right now. Yeah, I have said those things
and I'm sorry if you've felt a certain way that I didn't
come to you quick enough and I was speaking to other people.
You know, I take that on board. But what I said
to you at Robbie's birthday is genuinely what I felt
and how I was feeling. I was being completely honest.
Yeah, but you were honestly short.
You barely let me explain myself and then you walked away.
Yeah, because I felt like... That's so unfair.
Yeah, because I felt like, Miles... I'd never do that to you.
..I've done that. I would never just walk away from you. I felt like
I have sat there, explained things to you before
and you clearly just...you've not listened to me.
Because you say, "I won't do it again, I wanna do this,
"I wanna do that," and then you go and date another girl
and then upset her again. And the whole Yas and Harvey thing,
I thought they would make a cute little match.
The thing is, because I actually care about you a lot,
I don't want you looking bad and I don't want you to be painted
in a bad light because you're not a bad person and... I get that
and, look, this is all I wanted.
I just wanted us to have, you know,
a clear up of the whole situation.
You mean so much to me in my life.
There's only one girl who fucking annoys me.
And that's me? That's you.
And I like it that way. Yeah, you do.
So, does that mean we're friends again? I guess so.
Well, to be honest, let's get you out of this club before you try
and get with someone else. Shut up!
Should we hug it out?
Yeah. I don't like hugs, but...
Aw. OK, let's have a drink.
Let's do it. You're buying them.
I've got a date! Yes, Harvey. Woo. Get in there.
Just have your wits about you cos he's,
yeah, a bit of a liar, I think.
He was like, "I'd be cautious going into the date."
You're a bit of a weasel in the grass to be honest with you, mate.
I don't care about you. When a weasel like you comes up
and tries to drag my name through the mud,
slander me still, I have to stand up and be like, "Right, what the fuck
"is your motive?"
Ruby has a new man.
Oh, right, right, let's all calm down.
I think you should hurry a little bit.
Really, do you think? Yeah, you just don't wanna miss your chance.
I'm very much, obviously, enjoying what we're doing. Mm.
I think this has reignited my hope in humanity.
After everything I went through with Inga, it shocked me that
she was capable of doing that.
Unfortunately, I do think you have to apologise.
Apologise?! Incorrect.
You're there laughing at my expense to my girlfriend
and then going behind her back and bitching about her.
If she doesn't come over... Done. Just don't be bitchy
to my fucking girlfriend. OK? That's it. Let's go. Ciao.
