Mum, Dad. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
I miss you. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:08 | |
My Far Eastern adventure is not what I expected. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:11 | |
I came here to follow my dreams | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
and ended up being pursued by a nightmare. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
My backpack fell down a waterfall. | 0:00:19 | 0:00:22 | |
My passport got stolen in a bar. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:24 | |
My girlfriend turned out to be a man. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
Worst of all, my plan to set up a Punch and Judy franchise on every beach in Thailand | 0:00:27 | 0:00:32 | |
fell foul of the all-powerful Puppeteers' Union. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:36 | |
They're worse than the Triads. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
And I need to pay them 2,000 US dollars | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
or they'll stuff me and mount me and use me as a glove puppet! | 0:00:42 | 0:00:46 | |
Mum, Dad, if you're watching this, please wire me the money before it's too late! | 0:00:46 | 0:00:51 | |
I'm desperate. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
Ugh! Cockroach! | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
Mum, Dad, if you're watching this, | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
please wire me the money before it's too late! | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
-I'm desperate. -You're not watching that again! You'll wear the tape out. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:16 | |
Just showing concern for our son. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
Is the popcorn really necessary? | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
He'll be all right. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
I sent him the 2,000 dollars. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:27 | |
-Did you? -Yeah. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:28 | |
So did I. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:31 | |
# Noel, noel | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
# Noel, noel | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
# Born is the king of Israel... # | 0:01:54 | 0:01:58 | |
Hey, Mikey! | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
What? | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
Christmas is over for another year! | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
Rejoice unto the heavens! | 0:02:14 | 0:02:16 | |
-There. -You could have waited till Boxing Day. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:29 | |
You asked me to clear up after dinner. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
I didn't mean tear down all the decorations 12 days early. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
Well, we don't want the job hanging over us, do we? | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
Well, that was for me? Ah. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
TV PLAYS THEME TO THE GREAT ESCAPE | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
I love this quiet time between Christmas and New Year. | 0:02:56 | 0:03:01 | |
This lull. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
-Don't you? -Yes. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
No more cards to write, presents to wrap, decorations to put up, turkey to stuff and baste... | 0:03:05 | 0:03:13 | |
No... | 0:03:13 | 0:03:14 | |
Hey! You didn't do any of those things - I did them all. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
No more arguments. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:20 | |
Now, you wait one minute. I'll be the judge of that. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
-Judge, jury and executioner. -PHONE RINGS | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
Hello. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
Janey, you've just interrupted a perfectly good row... | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
And Merry Christmas to you, too... | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
What? | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
What?! | 0:03:38 | 0:03:40 | |
What?! | 0:03:41 | 0:03:43 | |
When? | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
OK... | 0:03:47 | 0:03:48 | |
Ben, Janey's coming over and she's bringing her... | 0:03:50 | 0:03:54 | |
-..fiance! -What? | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
Janey's coming over? | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
-Does she have to? -Ben, Ben... | 0:04:00 | 0:04:03 | |
Janey's got a fiance. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:05 | |
Yeah, I heard. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
-Fiance?! -Don't you know what this means? | 0:04:07 | 0:04:11 | |
She got engaged to a stranger without telling us? | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
No. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
OK, yes. But it also means a wedding to organise. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:21 | |
At last! | 0:04:21 | 0:04:22 | |
No more Janey to support. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
At last! | 0:04:27 | 0:04:29 | |
This is so exciting, Abi! | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 | |
I know. I love Christmas. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:38 | |
Comes round quick, though. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:39 | |
Doesn't seem a year since we last put these up. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
I was talking about the wedding. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
Weddings aren't exciting. With my Dad, weddings are a weekly event. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:48 | |
How lovely. You can be our resident wedding expert. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
No, thanks. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:53 | |
Weddings make me think of just one thing - divorce. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:57 | |
They're here! | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
Oh, Abi - will he be handsome? Will he be rich? | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
Que sera, sera, Susan. You'll soon find out. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:07 | |
And when you do, don't tell me. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:09 | |
Hi, Mum. Merry Christmas! | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
-Happy Christmas, darling. And congratulations! -Thank you. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
Well, where is he, then? | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
Here. This is Ches! Ches, Mum. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:22 | |
Merry Crimbo! Pleased to meet you, er... | 0:05:25 | 0:05:29 | |
Um... Susan. Thanks. Ches. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:33 | |
Well, what d'you think? | 0:05:33 | 0:05:35 | |
-It's an antique. -It certainly is. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:38 | |
-Ben! -So, let's meet the young whippersnapper. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:43 | |
You're forty years too late. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
Mmm? Oh, dear. Yeah, yeah, very good. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:49 | |
That's very... | 0:05:49 | 0:05:51 | |
Oh, my God! | 0:05:51 | 0:05:55 | |
-Something the matter, Dad? -Nope. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:57 | |
-Ring. Ring. -Ring. Big Ring, nice ring. Lovely ring. | 0:05:57 | 0:06:00 | |
Must be if you can see it from there. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:03 | |
Dad, this is Ches. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
Hi, Dad! | 0:06:06 | 0:06:10 | |
Can't breathe. Can't breathe. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:12 | |
So... | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
you're marrying Janey? | 0:06:15 | 0:06:18 | |
Yep. You know, | 0:06:18 | 0:06:21 | |
you're not what I expected. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:24 | |
We're not what you expected? | 0:06:24 | 0:06:26 | |
-I thought you'd be much younger. No offence. -None taken. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:30 | |
So, you're marrying Janey? | 0:06:30 | 0:06:34 | |
-Oh, Ben, just shut up! -What? What's the matter with you? | 0:06:34 | 0:06:37 | |
-With me? Don't be ridiculous. -Now, I did expect this. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:41 | |
-Oh, Chesey! -Oh, Janey-ey! | 0:06:41 | 0:06:45 | |
I know what you're thinking. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:50 | |
Oh, no, you don't. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:52 | |
"We were just like them, once upon a time!" | 0:06:52 | 0:06:56 | |
How could you tell? | 0:06:56 | 0:06:58 | |
Well, Michael, Merry Christmas. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:02 | |
Wow. Thanks, Molly. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:08 | |
-I hoped you'd get these. -Good. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:10 | |
What have you got? | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
A set of dinner plates. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
Uh-oh. Must be getting serious. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
I know! Six weeks! | 0:07:17 | 0:07:19 | |
Oh, Michael, maybe next Christmas we'll be eating off them together. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:23 | |
Wicked. | 0:07:25 | 0:07:27 | |
No, I think maybe we should go to your place. Too many relatives here. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:32 | |
OK, but shouldn't you get a jacket? | 0:07:32 | 0:07:34 | |
Nah. Being cold's more... | 0:07:34 | 0:07:37 | |
Christmassy. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:38 | |
Abi, Molly mustn't get the slightest whiff there's a wedding. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:42 | |
You've seen what she's like. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:43 | |
She's started slowing down outside jewellers' windows. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:46 | |
Well, why don't you just break up with her, then? | 0:07:46 | 0:07:49 | |
Well, because she gives the most fantastic... | 0:07:49 | 0:07:53 | |
Christmas presents. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
You know, Dad, | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
Janey's a very, very special lady. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:04 | |
Oh, yes... | 0:08:05 | 0:08:08 | |
unique. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
Don't you have something to ask, Ben? | 0:08:10 | 0:08:11 | |
What? Yes? So, you're marrying Janey? | 0:08:11 | 0:08:15 | |
-No, not that again. -Sorry. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
Ben - I mean "Dad" wants to know | 0:08:17 | 0:08:20 | |
-if you can keep Janey in the manner to which she's become accustomed. -No. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:24 | |
Ches can do much better than that. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
Do you know he owns Peppermint Puss... | 0:08:26 | 0:08:29 | |
the chain of nightclubs? | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
Lap-dancing, pole-dancing, table dancing, disco dancing... | 0:08:31 | 0:08:36 | |
I think we've established that there's dancing. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
Your father also wants to know how long you've known each other. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:41 | |
How long is a white dove's kiss? | 0:08:41 | 0:08:45 | |
Ten days. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:50 | |
-But it seems like a lifetime. -Yeah. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
Every minute we're not together seems like... | 0:08:52 | 0:08:56 | |
a minute and a half. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:58 | |
Tell me you're happy for us, Dad. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
I'll get back to you in a white dove's kiss. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:05 | |
-When he lowered his poinsettia and I saw his face...! -I know. | 0:09:08 | 0:09:13 | |
That man is old enough to be her... well, me. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
-I can't bear to think of Janey giving herself to some old crinkly. -No. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:20 | |
It's bad enough I have to. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:23 | |
That man was pulling grey hairs out of his pubes before Janey was born. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:27 | |
I wondered what the screaming was in the next ward. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:31 | |
And those clothes, the tacky nightclubs, the tan, the jewellery. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:36 | |
What does Janey see in him? | 0:09:36 | 0:09:38 | |
He's so nouveau riche. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
Well, at least he's riche. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:43 | |
Come on, chin up. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:45 | |
Don't forget you've got a wedding to organise. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:48 | |
Yes. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
A June wedding would be nice. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
And at least Janey will have a "riche" husband. So I'm off the hook. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:57 | |
Once you've paid for the wedding. | 0:09:57 | 0:09:59 | |
Love the house name, Ches. Very witty. Yep, "Chez Ches"! | 0:10:09 | 0:10:14 | |
No, Dad, it's Ches Ches. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:18 | |
What happened with your education? No offence. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
Oh, I only got a string of dental qualifications. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:24 | |
Oh, bummer! | 0:10:24 | 0:10:26 | |
Hello, Kenzo, darling. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:28 | |
These'll give him nightmares, you know. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:31 | |
-Mum... -Now park your carcasses and I'll drum up some nibbles after I phone my other "very special lady". | 0:10:31 | 0:10:38 | |
His Mum. She's making the wedding cake. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:44 | |
His mum? | 0:10:46 | 0:10:47 | |
I see. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
Isn't he wonderful? | 0:10:49 | 0:10:51 | |
-I don't know. You tell us. -OK. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:54 | |
-He's wonderful! -But why do you think he's right for you? | 0:10:59 | 0:11:02 | |
Oh, I don't think, Mum. I know. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
I've never felt so sure about anything in my life. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
-How come? -A psychic told me. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:09 | |
-A what? -Yeah. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:11 | |
You know, a psychic once told me I'd meet the one true love of my life at a wedding. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:16 | |
And that's where I met Ches. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:18 | |
-It's destiny. -A psychic! Are... | 0:11:18 | 0:11:21 | |
Are you crazy? | 0:11:21 | 0:11:23 | |
You can't live your life according to some mumbo-jumbo. | 0:11:23 | 0:11:27 | |
If a psychic said you'd marry a donkey, would you? | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
That's what they told me... | 0:11:31 | 0:11:33 | |
Janey, there must be other weddings, other men... | 0:11:33 | 0:11:37 | |
other psychics. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:39 | |
But I love Ches. And in two weeks' time I'll be his wife. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:42 | |
-Two weeks? I can't organise a wedding in two weeks! -Susan. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:45 | |
Oh, Mum, you don't have to. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:47 | |
Ches and I have organised everything. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
-Everything? You can't have. -Susan. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:51 | |
You're hyperventilating, have a dip. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:53 | |
What about the reception? | 0:11:55 | 0:11:58 | |
We're having it here. If you've got it, flaunt it, get married in it. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:02 | |
The church, then? No church will take you at such short notice. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:06 | |
Oh, you're right. So we're having the ceremony here, too. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
No church wedding? | 0:12:09 | 0:12:11 | |
This can't be happening. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:12 | |
I know - it's like a dream. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:16 | |
Sometimes I have to pinch myself. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
-I could help. -What's that, Dad? | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
I was just saying, I think I speak on behalf of Susan when I say... | 0:12:21 | 0:12:24 | |
Oh, and I want you to know I'm paying for it all, too. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
The whole shebang. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:29 | |
So, Dad, what were you going to say? | 0:12:29 | 0:12:31 | |
Love the prawn things, son. Susan? | 0:12:31 | 0:12:35 | |
I used to have such plans for Janey. Dreams. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:43 | |
It's like she's going against my wishes all the way. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:45 | |
Or this may not be about you. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:49 | |
-And now even her wedding is being snatched away from us. -Good. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:53 | |
Look at it this way - you won't have to spend months planning it | 0:12:53 | 0:12:57 | |
and I won't have to listen to you spending months planning it. | 0:12:57 | 0:13:00 | |
And it'll all be paid for by someone else. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:02 | |
Yes, by Ches. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:05 | |
Ches, Ben. She's marrying Ches. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:08 | |
We have to call the wedding off! | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
It's not ours to call off. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:14 | |
-Is it? -I suppose. | 0:13:14 | 0:13:18 | |
It's all right, darling, it's all right. You'll get used to it. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:24 | |
You'll think differently when you hear the patter of... tiny snakeskin boots. | 0:13:26 | 0:13:33 | |
-Are you sure you've thought this through, Janey? -There's no need. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:39 | |
Mum, this is destiny. The psychic, remember? | 0:13:39 | 0:13:43 | |
Bloody psychics, they never think about the future. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:47 | |
-Haven't you heard of love or romance? -Of course. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
I've heard of them. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:52 | |
I can't wait for the wedding. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:54 | |
It's not just that Ches and I are destined. We're so compatible. | 0:13:57 | 0:14:02 | |
We love the same things, you know - shopping, spending money, | 0:14:02 | 0:14:07 | |
holidays, clubbing...shopping. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:11 | |
These are all very important things, Susan. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:14 | |
-You think I'm doing this on a whim? -I wish it was something that solid. | 0:14:14 | 0:14:18 | |
Yeah, right. I've had enough of you two. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
I'm getting married with or without your blessing, and if you don't like it, you can stay away. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:25 | |
OK, staying away it is, then. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:28 | |
No, Ben. Janey obviously loves Ches. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:33 | |
In the end, that's all that matters. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:35 | |
-We are not losing our daughter over this. -Oh. Aren't we? | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
No. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:39 | |
We've got to enter into the spirit of this wedding. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:42 | |
You do some bonding with Ches. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:44 | |
We'll invite his parents round. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:46 | |
And I'll need a new outfit. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:48 | |
Some shoes, a handbag, two handbags. Oh, and you, here... | 0:14:48 | 0:14:53 | |
-What's this? -Get writing your father of the bride speech. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:58 | |
-No chance! -Ben, you must. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:00 | |
You're only father of the bride once. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:02 | |
-I can't. -Just write down what you really feel. | 0:15:02 | 0:15:05 | |
OK. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:08 | |
I don't want to make a speech. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:12 | |
Susan, this is an idiotic idea. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:20 | |
You need to get to know Ches, have a fatherly chat. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
At the Peppermint Puss? | 0:15:25 | 0:15:27 | |
Good God, we won't hear ourselves over the bumping and grinding. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:30 | |
-Oh, we all have to make sacrifices. -Can I make some too? | 0:15:30 | 0:15:34 | |
BOTH: No. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:36 | |
CAR HORN BEEPS A TUNE That'll be him. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:40 | |
Unless it's old Mrs Burridge. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
Bye. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:44 | |
Bye. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:46 | |
Right...Michael. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:49 | |
-Guest list. -But Dad's out. Wouldn't he want a say? | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |
Yes. Guest list. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
You'll want to invite your little friends - Hubert, Jack, Molly... | 0:15:57 | 0:16:03 | |
No! Not Molly. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:05 | |
-But she's your girlfriend. -Yes, but... | 0:16:05 | 0:16:08 | |
confetti brings her out in hives. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:10 | |
-Hives? -Yes. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:13 | |
Suit yourself. | 0:16:13 | 0:16:16 | |
Auntie Joyce, | 0:16:16 | 0:16:18 | |
the Jacksons, Roger... | 0:16:18 | 0:16:22 | |
-Roger's coming? -Of course. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |
What about Gran? | 0:16:25 | 0:16:27 | |
Gran. No. She'll be too busy. She won't want to come. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:32 | |
-To the wedding of her only granddaughter? -Next! | 0:16:32 | 0:16:35 | |
Come on, Susan. You have to have at least one embarrassing drunk at a wedding. It's tradition. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:40 | |
If you don't invite Grace, we'll have to find another one. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:43 | |
We'll put an ad in the paper. Next. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:45 | |
Dad. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:49 | |
-Dad! -Yeah. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
So, how's your business? | 0:16:53 | 0:16:55 | |
-Um, it's pretty much like this really. -Really? | 0:16:55 | 0:17:00 | |
Yeah, yeah. Well, we're both in the entertainment business, aren't we? | 0:17:00 | 0:17:05 | |
Yeah. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:06 | |
I mean, what's more fun than a mouthful of healthy teeth? | 0:17:06 | 0:17:10 | |
What do you think of the sound system? | 0:17:10 | 0:17:13 | |
Fine. We have Radio 2. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:15 | |
Seems to do the trick. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:17 | |
Oh, thanks, babe. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:20 | |
Thank you. Hey, that's nothing. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:25 | |
You should see what dental nurses wear these days. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:28 | |
Let me get you another one. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:34 | |
Oh, it's fine. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:36 | |
I was talking to her. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:38 | |
What a night. | 0:17:46 | 0:17:49 | |
What a night! | 0:17:49 | 0:17:51 | |
And hello to you too, Ben. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:53 | |
Ches is not a normal son-in-law. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:56 | |
What did you find out? | 0:17:56 | 0:17:58 | |
He's already married? He's a junkie. | 0:17:58 | 0:18:01 | |
He's a bag man to the mob. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:02 | |
Worse than that. He wouldn't let me pay for anything. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:05 | |
Not a penny, not a cent, not a Portuguese escudo. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
-But you like not paying. -Yes, within reason. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
But he takes it to extremes. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:13 | |
Valet parking - he paid. Drinks - he paid. Meal - he paid. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:16 | |
Toilet attendant - he paid. Ten quid in the dancer's G-string - he paid. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:21 | |
-A semi-naked girl was gyrating and all you could think about was who was paying? -By that stage, yes. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:27 | |
Good. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:28 | |
So what did you and Ches talk about? | 0:18:28 | 0:18:30 | |
Who was paying! | 0:18:30 | 0:18:33 | |
By the end of the night, I felt inadequate, completely redundant. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:38 | |
Susan, my role in this family has always been | 0:18:38 | 0:18:41 | |
the poor schmuck who pays for everything. What am I now? | 0:18:41 | 0:18:44 | |
Just a poor schmuck? | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
-Thank you. -Where are you going? | 0:18:47 | 0:18:50 | |
To spend a penny. And this time no-one is going to stop me. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:54 | |
Oh, yes. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:58 | |
Hey, hey, hey. Listen to this. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:01 | |
What can I tell you about my only daughter, Janey? | 0:19:03 | 0:19:06 | |
Look at the facts, what do you see? | 0:19:06 | 0:19:10 | |
An endless list of disappointments. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:13 | |
A single mother, college drop-out, | 0:19:15 | 0:19:18 | |
a grasping, shallow clothes horse, | 0:19:18 | 0:19:21 | |
now married to a sugar daddy | 0:19:21 | 0:19:23 | |
-with all the charm of a virulent stomach bug. -Stop, stop, stop! | 0:19:23 | 0:19:28 | |
-Yes, dear? -You can't say any of that! | 0:19:28 | 0:19:31 | |
Yes, I can. I have to say what I really feel. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:35 | |
Oh, no, you're not wriggling out of it that easily. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:39 | |
Don't you know there's a wedding on? | 0:19:39 | 0:19:41 | |
-We've all got to do our bit and yours is making a speech. -Yes, but I... | 0:19:41 | 0:19:45 | |
-A proper one. -OK, OK... so what's your bit? | 0:19:45 | 0:19:48 | |
Being an island...of calm. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:53 | |
DOORBELL RINGS | 0:19:53 | 0:19:55 | |
Oh, that's them! | 0:19:55 | 0:19:57 | |
Janey's just settling Kenzo. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
I was just telling Ben how proud we are of our Ches. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:08 | |
Do you know he brought strobe lighting to the Midlands? | 0:20:08 | 0:20:12 | |
It must've been a great help down the mines. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:15 | |
So were the hot pants! Refill, anyone? | 0:20:15 | 0:20:18 | |
We've got all this to get through. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:21 | |
Oh, Ches brought a case? | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
Four cases. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:25 | |
How generous. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
So, Edie, you must be delighted Ches has found a girl like Janey? | 0:20:27 | 0:20:33 | |
No. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:36 | |
Oh, right, of course, | 0:20:36 | 0:20:38 | |
cos a man like Ches could have his pick of cheap little bimbos. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:42 | |
Believe me, I have - but I settled on Janey. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:45 | |
Ches is too young to be married. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:48 | |
Where did all the time go? | 0:20:48 | 0:20:52 | |
You mean the last half century? | 0:20:52 | 0:20:54 | |
-Lovely wife you've got there. -She's a miserable old cow. | 0:20:57 | 0:21:02 | |
I like that in a woman. | 0:21:02 | 0:21:04 | |
Our marriage is nothing but a sham. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:06 | |
Really? Can work for some people. | 0:21:06 | 0:21:08 | |
Not for us. We're only together for the sake of the kid. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:12 | |
-You've got a kid? -Ches. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:15 | |
Just waiting for him to be off our hands and I can divorce her. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:21 | |
55 years is enough for anyone. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:23 | |
Just look at the sour old baggage. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:26 | |
So, Edie, | 0:21:28 | 0:21:30 | |
how's your wedding cake coming along? | 0:21:30 | 0:21:33 | |
-It's finished. -Really? | 0:21:33 | 0:21:35 | |
Have you gone for the traditional three tiers or... | 0:21:35 | 0:21:39 | |
It's in the shape of the Bridge of Sighs. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:41 | |
..and these are Ches's cousins, Lucy and Marina. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:50 | |
They're going to be my bridesmaids. Seeing as you won't. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:53 | |
-I hate weddings. -Oh, I love them. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:56 | |
They're sexy, sexy, sexy. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:59 | |
They're tiresome ritualistic social functions. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:02 | |
With lots of men, men, men. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:04 | |
So are public hangings. | 0:22:04 | 0:22:07 | |
She gets it. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:09 | |
Oh, and Michael's going to be our page boy. ..Mike. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:13 | |
Aw! | 0:22:16 | 0:22:18 | |
-Right, that's it. -Michael... | 0:22:18 | 0:22:20 | |
Nothing in the world could make me wear this in public. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:23 | |
What about a phone call to Molly? | 0:22:23 | 0:22:24 | |
How do you know about that? Abi! | 0:22:24 | 0:22:27 | |
-Oooooh! -Kill me now. | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
Hello, everyone. I've bought my wedding outfit. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:37 | |
-On your own? -Yes. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
I thought the one thing I'd be allowed to do for my own daughter's wedding | 0:22:39 | 0:22:43 | |
is choose my own outfit. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:46 | |
Look, Mum, if it makes you feel better | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
you can help me choose the material for the bridesmaids' dresses. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:53 | |
OK! | 0:22:53 | 0:22:54 | |
I was thinking pretty pastel shades with ribbons... | 0:22:54 | 0:22:58 | |
Mum, it's between the leopard print or the zebra. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:01 | |
Leopard print or zebra? | 0:23:01 | 0:23:03 | |
Can I be a bridesmaid? | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
One day to the wedding. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:11 | |
You must be so excited. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:12 | |
Tomorrow, thanks to some dunderhead psychic, | 0:23:12 | 0:23:16 | |
my daughter's marrying a decrepit disco king she hardly knows. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:20 | |
They're pledging their vows in a room that would make Liberace vomit. | 0:23:20 | 0:23:26 | |
The bridesmaids look like extras from Tarzan. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:30 | |
The wedding cake is in the shape of the Bridge of Sighs. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:34 | |
The bride's father thinks he's making a speech for the prosecution, and there's something else... | 0:23:34 | 0:23:39 | |
Oh, yes, yes... | 0:23:39 | 0:23:40 | |
your grandmother's coming. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:42 | |
What are you smirking at? | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
Can I bring Molly? | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
The most important advice about marriage is this - stand up for yourself, Janey. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:55 | |
Be assertive and confident. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:58 | |
Not self-effacing and submissive like I am with your father. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:03 | |
Yes? What do you want? | 0:24:03 | 0:24:05 | |
Sorry, darling. Could I just have a little word with Janey? Alone. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:09 | |
OK. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:10 | |
But don't tire her out. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:14 | |
Dad, look, destiny is guiding me. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:20 | |
I don't need your fatherly advice. | 0:24:20 | 0:24:23 | |
No... | 0:24:23 | 0:24:25 | |
you don't need anything from me any more, do you, Janey? | 0:24:25 | 0:24:29 | |
Oh, look. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:33 | |
It reminds me of your teddy - Mr Eddy Edwin Tedworth. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:37 | |
Yeah, that's him. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:39 | |
Oh, mm-hm. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:41 | |
-Ah. It doesn't seem that long since... -Yes, well... | 0:24:41 | 0:24:45 | |
..big day tomorrow and I'm tired | 0:24:46 | 0:24:48 | |
so just do your advice bit and go. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:51 | |
Er, Janey, darling... | 0:24:53 | 0:24:56 | |
I just want to say... | 0:25:00 | 0:25:02 | |
..always remember to floss... | 0:25:05 | 0:25:07 | |
..regularly. | 0:25:10 | 0:25:13 | |
Sounds good. | 0:25:14 | 0:25:17 | |
'Night, Dad. | 0:25:17 | 0:25:18 | |
Sweet dreams. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:28 | |
Oh, you moron! | 0:25:30 | 0:25:32 | |
Oh, not you as well? And what advice have you got? | 0:25:34 | 0:25:37 | |
This - find yourself another page boy. | 0:25:37 | 0:25:40 | |
-Right, I'm phoning Molly. -Too late. I've already invited her. | 0:25:40 | 0:25:44 | |
-The way this wedding's shaping up, it'll put her off for life. -Oh, thanks! | 0:25:44 | 0:25:48 | |
A blessing on you too, Michael. | 0:25:48 | 0:25:50 | |
FLY BUZZES | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
I'm also running out of food. | 0:26:29 | 0:26:31 | |
FLY BUZZES | 0:26:33 | 0:26:35 | |
I think it says "mother of the bride" in a hip, young, island of calm way. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:44 | |
And what does my outfit say? | 0:26:44 | 0:26:47 | |
HE GIVES A TARZAN CRY | 0:26:47 | 0:26:50 | |
HE CHATTERS LIKE A CHIMPANZEE | 0:26:50 | 0:26:53 | |
Ah, Molly...got your hives under control? | 0:26:53 | 0:26:57 | |
My last girlfriend kept bees. | 0:26:58 | 0:27:01 | |
Susan, would you like to hear the fourth draft of my speech? | 0:27:01 | 0:27:05 | |
Right. What can I tell you about my only daughter, Janey... | 0:27:05 | 0:27:09 | |
No, no, stop, stop. I can't bear it! | 0:27:09 | 0:27:11 | |
Each draft gets worse. | 0:27:11 | 0:27:13 | |
I give in. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:15 | |
-Michael, you're making the father of the bride speech. -Aw! | 0:27:15 | 0:27:18 | |
But I'm not her father. | 0:27:18 | 0:27:20 | |
Stop nit-picking. | 0:27:20 | 0:27:22 | |
Listen, I don't want any embarrassments today. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:25 | |
Michael, obey orders. | 0:27:25 | 0:27:27 | |
Ben, keep your eye on Ches Senior. | 0:27:27 | 0:27:30 | |
Abi, make sure that Marina girl keeps her knickers on. | 0:27:30 | 0:27:35 | |
And all of you, all of you... | 0:27:35 | 0:27:38 | |
keep Gran off the booze. | 0:27:38 | 0:27:41 | |
Oh, look...it's that damned elusive Pimpernel. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:50 | |
No, no, it's me, Roger Bailey. | 0:27:52 | 0:27:55 | |
And look who I found on the doorstep! | 0:27:55 | 0:27:57 | |
Horizontal or vertical? | 0:27:57 | 0:27:59 | |
Ben, you look radiant. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:01 | |
Hello, mother. Glad you could make it. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:05 | |
Oh, I wouldn't have missed this for the world. | 0:28:05 | 0:28:08 | |
I understand it's going to be ghastly. | 0:28:08 | 0:28:11 | |
Roger, you look... | 0:28:12 | 0:28:14 | |
unusual. | 0:28:14 | 0:28:16 | |
Thanks. You too, Abi. | 0:28:18 | 0:28:21 | |
-This reminds me of the morning of your wedding. -Oh. Really, Mum? | 0:28:22 | 0:28:27 | |
Mmm. | 0:28:27 | 0:28:28 | |
The hairdresser was late then, too. | 0:28:28 | 0:28:31 | |
The hairdresser has already been. | 0:28:31 | 0:28:34 | |
Try to keep something back, Grace. You're going to need all your bile for later. | 0:28:34 | 0:28:40 | |
Mother, just so that you know, | 0:28:40 | 0:28:43 | |
I ought to warn you that the groom is a little older than you might expect. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:47 | |
I know, Susan, you wrote it on my invitation. | 0:28:47 | 0:28:50 | |
You didn't! | 0:28:50 | 0:28:51 | |
-She wrote it on all the invitations. -I was trying to avoid embarrassment. | 0:28:51 | 0:28:55 | |
Oh, Michael, look, here comes the bride! | 0:28:55 | 0:28:59 | |
Here comes the embarrassment! | 0:28:59 | 0:29:02 | |
ALL: Oh! | 0:29:02 | 0:29:05 | |
-Today's the day, Ben, eh? -Yeah. | 0:29:22 | 0:29:24 | |
-Free at last. -Well, I wouldn't say Janey's exactly been a burden. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:29 | |
No, I was talking about me! | 0:29:29 | 0:29:32 | |
-As soon Ches and Janey are on that plane to Acapulco, Edie won't see me for dust. -Well, congratulations. | 0:29:32 | 0:29:38 | |
I hope you'll be very happy apart. | 0:29:38 | 0:29:40 | |
Presents over here, please. | 0:29:40 | 0:29:43 | |
Presents over here, please. | 0:29:43 | 0:29:45 | |
Brother of the bride. | 0:29:45 | 0:29:47 | |
Glad to see you're making yourself useful. | 0:29:47 | 0:29:51 | |
Stash these with the others, Hubert. | 0:29:51 | 0:29:54 | |
Now, that is a bit fit. | 0:29:59 | 0:30:01 | |
That's Roger. | 0:30:01 | 0:30:03 | |
Those breeches emphasise things, don't they?! | 0:30:03 | 0:30:07 | |
Hey! This isn't a cattle market. | 0:30:07 | 0:30:10 | |
Sexy, sexy, sexy. | 0:30:10 | 0:30:13 | |
I'm just looking out for Roger. | 0:30:14 | 0:30:17 | |
I noticed. | 0:30:17 | 0:30:18 | |
Understated little place. | 0:30:18 | 0:30:21 | |
Everyone to their taste. | 0:30:21 | 0:30:23 | |
Taste isn't the word that springs to mind. | 0:30:23 | 0:30:26 | |
What does this, um, "Ches" do? | 0:30:27 | 0:30:31 | |
-He's in night clubs. -And during the day? | 0:30:31 | 0:30:34 | |
There's plenty of time for this later. And remember... | 0:30:34 | 0:30:38 | |
Yes, yes, I know, don't worry - | 0:30:38 | 0:30:41 | |
Ches is a little older than I'd expect. | 0:30:41 | 0:30:44 | |
Oh, sorry, sorry. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:49 | |
Ches Rochester. | 0:30:49 | 0:30:51 | |
Grace Riggs. So you're Ches? | 0:30:52 | 0:30:56 | |
Haven't you done well? | 0:30:58 | 0:31:01 | |
Oh, yes. | 0:31:01 | 0:31:02 | |
This is the happiest day of my life. | 0:31:02 | 0:31:05 | |
Fancy a dance later? | 0:31:05 | 0:31:07 | |
And who knows what might follow? | 0:31:07 | 0:31:11 | |
-Your wife? -Soon to be ex-wife. | 0:31:12 | 0:31:17 | |
I see. | 0:31:17 | 0:31:19 | |
Excuse me. | 0:31:19 | 0:31:21 | |
Ah, how sweet... | 0:31:26 | 0:31:29 | |
twins! | 0:31:29 | 0:31:30 | |
Which of you was born first? | 0:31:34 | 0:31:36 | |
You can't tell. | 0:31:36 | 0:31:38 | |
-Well, Edie, I think you have excellent taste. -Hmmph. | 0:31:40 | 0:31:44 | |
Better than my son's. | 0:31:44 | 0:31:47 | |
How could he be doing this to me? | 0:31:47 | 0:31:50 | |
Oh, Ches! | 0:31:50 | 0:31:52 | |
Are you the little boy I carried? | 0:31:52 | 0:31:54 | |
I don't know. Does your broomstick seat two? | 0:31:54 | 0:31:57 | |
-How's the island of calm? -Storm-lashed, overrun by pirates | 0:32:00 | 0:32:04 | |
and in the path of an oncoming oil slick. | 0:32:04 | 0:32:07 | |
Susan, meet Nige, the wedding photographer. | 0:32:07 | 0:32:10 | |
Actually, this is my first wedding. | 0:32:10 | 0:32:13 | |
Oh. But you are a photographer? | 0:32:13 | 0:32:15 | |
Oh, yeah. Glamour. | 0:32:15 | 0:32:18 | |
Pretty young ladies for magazines. | 0:32:18 | 0:32:20 | |
That kind of thing. | 0:32:20 | 0:32:22 | |
Lovely. | 0:32:22 | 0:32:23 | |
-I think we're about to kick off. -Ah, | 0:32:28 | 0:32:31 | |
the traditional entrance of the bridegroom, Chester Rochester, | 0:32:31 | 0:32:34 | |
flanked by a brace of delightful sex-kittens. | 0:32:34 | 0:32:37 | |
If that's Ches, who's he? | 0:32:47 | 0:32:50 | |
His father, Ches Senior. | 0:32:51 | 0:32:53 | |
He's leaving his wife after the wedding. | 0:32:53 | 0:32:55 | |
Oh, that's a relief. | 0:32:57 | 0:33:00 | |
Where the hell is the bride? | 0:33:00 | 0:33:02 | |
Kenzo. Nappy. And don't say "hell" in chur...in a living room. | 0:33:02 | 0:33:07 | |
Sit down, please. Quickly now. It's Saturday. | 0:33:07 | 0:33:09 | |
-Back to back weddings. -But... -Just do it. | 0:33:09 | 0:33:12 | |
-Name, please. -Ben Harper. -Repeat - "I, Ben Harper, take thee..." | 0:33:12 | 0:33:17 | |
Sorry, could we just sort of wait for the bride? | 0:33:17 | 0:33:19 | |
It is traditional, mate. | 0:33:19 | 0:33:21 | |
You're not telling me this isn't a gay ceremony? | 0:33:21 | 0:33:24 | |
-No, of course not. -Oh, come on! -I know you're in a hurry, | 0:33:24 | 0:33:29 | |
but I'm not about to enter a bigamous gay marriage | 0:33:29 | 0:33:31 | |
with my daughter's fiance to help you out. | 0:33:31 | 0:33:34 | |
Pity - you make a lovely couple. | 0:33:34 | 0:33:37 | |
Here's my special lady now. | 0:33:37 | 0:33:41 | |
There's a good boy. Thanks, Roger. | 0:33:43 | 0:33:46 | |
Right, people. Underwater wedding at the Lido in an hour. Let's get married! Repeat - | 0:33:49 | 0:33:56 | |
"I, Jane Elizabeth Laura Harper take thee, Chester Rochester, to be my lawful wedded husband." | 0:33:56 | 0:34:00 | |
I, Jane Elizabeth Laura Harper take thee, Chester Rochester, to be my lawful wedded husband. | 0:34:00 | 0:34:05 | |
-Vice-versa. You get the gist. -I, Chester Rochester, | 0:34:05 | 0:34:07 | |
take thee, Jane Elizabeth Laura Harper, to be my lawful wedded wife! | 0:34:07 | 0:34:10 | |
Come on, time to smile after you're married. | 0:34:10 | 0:34:12 | |
Are you, Jane Elizabeth Laura Harper, lawfully free to marry Chester Rochester? | 0:34:12 | 0:34:16 | |
-I am. -Are you, Chester Rochester, lawfully free to marry Jane Elizabeth Laura Harper? | 0:34:16 | 0:34:19 | |
I sure am. | 0:34:19 | 0:34:21 | |
No customising, please. | 0:34:21 | 0:34:23 | |
Rings. Rings, come on! | 0:34:24 | 0:34:27 | |
Ow! | 0:34:29 | 0:34:31 | |
Janey...you are the hurricane beneath my wings, | 0:34:33 | 0:34:38 | |
the cream leather upholstery in my favourite Ferrari, | 0:34:38 | 0:34:43 | |
the filtration system in the jacuzzi of my life. | 0:34:43 | 0:34:48 | |
Oh, you just take your time! | 0:34:48 | 0:34:50 | |
Let the couple at the Lido drown waiting. | 0:34:50 | 0:34:53 | |
Ches... | 0:34:55 | 0:34:57 | |
you are my destiny, my fate, | 0:34:57 | 0:35:01 | |
the platinum Amex card in my Prada wallet. | 0:35:01 | 0:35:04 | |
I want to laugh with you in the rain, | 0:35:07 | 0:35:09 | |
cry with you in the sun. Janey. | 0:35:09 | 0:35:13 | |
I'll stand by your side every day. | 0:35:13 | 0:35:16 | |
I'll dance by your side every night. | 0:35:16 | 0:35:20 | |
Ches. | 0:35:20 | 0:35:21 | |
Yes! | 0:35:24 | 0:35:26 | |
OK, OK... | 0:35:26 | 0:35:28 | |
we've nearly nailed this one. Let's sign the register. Come on. | 0:35:28 | 0:35:33 | |
Music! | 0:35:33 | 0:35:35 | |
MUSIC: Theme From "2001: A Space Odyssey" | 0:35:35 | 0:35:41 | |
All right, mother-in-law? | 0:35:42 | 0:35:45 | |
OK, everyone, OK... | 0:35:50 | 0:35:53 | |
lick your lips, stick out your tongues a little... | 0:35:53 | 0:35:58 | |
now...make love to me, everyone! | 0:35:58 | 0:36:02 | |
Beautiful, beautiful! | 0:36:08 | 0:36:11 | |
That's top notch! Lovely! | 0:36:11 | 0:36:14 | |
-I remember our wedding day so clearly. -Yeah? | 0:36:22 | 0:36:25 | |
Don't worry, | 0:36:25 | 0:36:27 | |
you won't remember this one at all. | 0:36:27 | 0:36:29 | |
Susan, did you say no-one should embarrass Janey? | 0:36:29 | 0:36:33 | |
Yes. I'd better check no-one is. | 0:36:33 | 0:36:36 | |
I'm going to circulate. | 0:36:36 | 0:36:37 | |
-Dad! -Ches! | 0:36:42 | 0:36:44 | |
-Maybe we should have that father-in-law, son-in-law chat that you wanted. -Sure, son. | 0:36:46 | 0:36:52 | |
Once my ribs have healed. | 0:36:52 | 0:36:54 | |
-Abi, have you seen Michael? -Yeah, he just left the marquee. | 0:36:54 | 0:36:59 | |
-Jealous? -We're just friends. | 0:37:05 | 0:37:08 | |
Yeah, like those two. | 0:37:09 | 0:37:11 | |
Here's some more. How's it going? | 0:37:17 | 0:37:19 | |
Superbly. | 0:37:19 | 0:37:22 | |
How did people manage to flog wedding presents before we had eBay? | 0:37:22 | 0:37:25 | |
What's the latest, then? | 0:37:25 | 0:37:27 | |
The crystal tumblers are up to 50 quid, the espresso machine is at 70 | 0:37:27 | 0:37:32 | |
and we've got a girl-fight over the novelty cruet set. | 0:37:32 | 0:37:35 | |
-Excellent. -Janey is all right about us doing this? | 0:37:35 | 0:37:39 | |
Janey? | 0:37:39 | 0:37:41 | |
Of course. After all, who needs a yoghurt maker and musical smoke alarm? | 0:37:41 | 0:37:46 | |
A woman in Stavanger, Norway, apparently. | 0:37:46 | 0:37:50 | |
Michael, do you think I might come out and eat at some point? | 0:37:50 | 0:37:53 | |
Not yet. Keep at it. | 0:37:53 | 0:37:56 | |
I'll send someone in with a canape. | 0:37:56 | 0:37:59 | |
Smashing! | 0:37:59 | 0:38:00 | |
Ah. | 0:38:04 | 0:38:06 | |
Molly. Hi. Having fun? | 0:38:06 | 0:38:08 | |
-No. -Great! | 0:38:08 | 0:38:10 | |
-Who've you got in there? -No-one. | 0:38:10 | 0:38:13 | |
Just checking on the presents. You know what weddings are like. A hotbed of crime. | 0:38:13 | 0:38:17 | |
Stomach acid? | 0:38:22 | 0:38:24 | |
-All the time! -What a drag, eh, Dad? | 0:38:24 | 0:38:26 | |
Yep. Arthritis? | 0:38:26 | 0:38:28 | |
Check! Big toe, left foot. You? | 0:38:28 | 0:38:30 | |
Right knee, left elbow... | 0:38:30 | 0:38:33 | |
-Peeing in the night? -Yeah, tell me about it! | 0:38:33 | 0:38:36 | |
-Well, last night my bladder... -No, maybe not. | 0:38:36 | 0:38:39 | |
-Ear hair? -What? -Ear hair? -Yeah, yeah. | 0:38:39 | 0:38:43 | |
I could knit a sweater. | 0:38:43 | 0:38:45 | |
-On the old Viagra, yet, then? -Of course not. | 0:38:45 | 0:38:48 | |
Me neither. | 0:38:48 | 0:38:50 | |
Abi... | 0:38:51 | 0:38:53 | |
I think you should go and see what Roger's up to in the corner, over there. | 0:38:53 | 0:38:59 | |
I knew it! | 0:38:59 | 0:39:01 | |
That piece of trash! | 0:39:01 | 0:39:04 | |
Don't be embarrassing, Abi! | 0:39:04 | 0:39:06 | |
-Roger! -Abi. | 0:39:08 | 0:39:11 | |
-You've written my name. -Yes, er... | 0:39:11 | 0:39:14 | |
-I was making a list. -What of? | 0:39:14 | 0:39:17 | |
People I see. | 0:39:17 | 0:39:19 | |
Where are the other names? | 0:39:19 | 0:39:21 | |
I'm short-sighted. | 0:39:21 | 0:39:23 | |
What's with all the hearts? | 0:39:23 | 0:39:26 | |
It's because... | 0:39:26 | 0:39:29 | |
I love... | 0:39:29 | 0:39:31 | |
making lists. | 0:39:31 | 0:39:33 | |
I love... | 0:39:33 | 0:39:35 | |
-making lists too. -You do? | 0:39:35 | 0:39:38 | |
Oh, Abi, I never... | 0:39:38 | 0:39:41 | |
Has anyone seen Michael? | 0:39:41 | 0:39:43 | |
Oh, look! | 0:39:49 | 0:39:51 | |
My mother's not good enough for your husband, then? | 0:39:51 | 0:39:54 | |
No Harper could ever be good enough for a Rochester. | 0:39:54 | 0:39:59 | |
You know what, Edie... you're a sour old bat. | 0:39:59 | 0:40:03 | |
I hate your son, I hate your husband, and most of all | 0:40:03 | 0:40:08 | |
I hate your cake! | 0:40:08 | 0:40:11 | |
You're jealous of my cake. | 0:40:12 | 0:40:14 | |
You've always been jealous of my cake. | 0:40:14 | 0:40:16 | |
And you haven't even tasted it yet. | 0:40:16 | 0:40:19 | |
I'll die first! | 0:40:19 | 0:40:20 | |
Probably afterwards too. | 0:40:20 | 0:40:23 | |
Hello, darling. Having a magical day? | 0:40:24 | 0:40:27 | |
Oh, just perfect, Mum. Just like the psychic predicted. | 0:40:27 | 0:40:32 | |
You should have said before... | 0:40:32 | 0:40:35 | |
-I'd have let you foot some of the bill. -No, it's nice to know... | 0:40:35 | 0:40:38 | |
I never wanted you to feel emasculated or humiliated | 0:40:38 | 0:40:42 | |
or cheap or... lower than the lowest... | 0:40:42 | 0:40:45 | |
Ches, Ches, it's OK, you've made your point. | 0:40:45 | 0:40:48 | |
Ah, here comes the bride! | 0:40:48 | 0:40:50 | |
Janey! | 0:40:50 | 0:40:51 | |
Hello, Mrs Rochester! | 0:40:51 | 0:40:55 | |
Hello, Mr Rochester! | 0:40:55 | 0:40:57 | |
Hello, Jack Daniels. | 0:40:57 | 0:41:00 | |
Right! Come out. I know you're in there. | 0:41:03 | 0:41:06 | |
And you too, Romeo. | 0:41:09 | 0:41:11 | |
I think of myself more as Mercutio. | 0:41:16 | 0:41:19 | |
And looking at Ches I think we can all agree that he has found true happiness. | 0:41:20 | 0:41:26 | |
But we're not just here to celebrate 20 years of Peppermint Puss. There is a wedding on. | 0:41:26 | 0:41:30 | |
Oh, which reminds me, present your wedding invitations at any of our clubs and get a free rum and coke. | 0:41:30 | 0:41:35 | |
Get on with it, Nev. None of us are getting any younger. | 0:41:35 | 0:41:40 | |
I'm only saying. | 0:41:42 | 0:41:44 | |
And now we come to a very special time on this very special occasion. | 0:41:44 | 0:41:48 | |
A speech from the father of the bride. | 0:41:48 | 0:41:51 | |
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you... | 0:41:51 | 0:41:53 | |
-Michael Harper! -Sit down, Mikey. I'm going to do this speech. | 0:41:53 | 0:41:57 | |
-No, Ben, please... -Susan, I am the father. Susan. | 0:41:57 | 0:42:01 | |
Now what can I tell you about my only daughter, Janey? | 0:42:10 | 0:42:15 | |
Well, look at the facts and tell me, what do you see? | 0:42:15 | 0:42:18 | |
An endless list of... | 0:42:20 | 0:42:22 | |
attributes. | 0:42:22 | 0:42:25 | |
Now where do I start? | 0:42:25 | 0:42:28 | |
OK. OK. Here goes. | 0:42:28 | 0:42:31 | |
Janey is a... | 0:42:31 | 0:42:34 | |
..beautiful young woman | 0:42:36 | 0:42:38 | |
with a firm will and a sharp wit. | 0:42:38 | 0:42:40 | |
Clear-eyed and determined. She's always known what she's wanted | 0:42:40 | 0:42:44 | |
and no-one was going to stop her. Believe me, I know. | 0:42:44 | 0:42:46 | |
She was told apparently by a psychic | 0:42:46 | 0:42:50 | |
that she was going to meet the man of her dreams at a wedding. | 0:42:50 | 0:42:54 | |
And that man has turned out to be Ches, who's finally saying goodbye to his Mum and Dad, | 0:42:54 | 0:43:01 | |
to make a family of his own. | 0:43:01 | 0:43:05 | |
So, ladies and gentlemen, I ask you to raise your glasses | 0:43:05 | 0:43:08 | |
to...a funny, lively, spirited, cheeky, little girl... | 0:43:08 | 0:43:15 | |
..who's grown into a wonderful daughter... | 0:43:16 | 0:43:20 | |
..a wonderful mother | 0:43:22 | 0:43:24 | |
and, no doubt, | 0:43:24 | 0:43:28 | |
a wonderful wife. | 0:43:28 | 0:43:29 | |
Oh, God! | 0:43:33 | 0:43:35 | |
I give you | 0:43:35 | 0:43:37 | |
Janey and Ches! | 0:43:37 | 0:43:39 | |
ALL: Janey and Ches! | 0:43:41 | 0:43:45 | |
Oh, Ben. That was so moving. | 0:44:00 | 0:44:02 | |
Not at all embarrassing. | 0:44:02 | 0:44:04 | |
I feel like I've let you down. | 0:44:04 | 0:44:06 | |
No, of course you haven't. | 0:44:06 | 0:44:08 | |
-Ladies and gentlemen, I'm the mother of the bride... -Susan. | 0:44:08 | 0:44:11 | |
..and my husband is just... | 0:44:11 | 0:44:14 | |
My cake! | 0:44:19 | 0:44:20 | |
Really! | 0:44:20 | 0:44:23 | |
Oops. | 0:44:25 | 0:44:27 | |
MUSIC: "I'm Not In Love" by 10CC | 0:44:36 | 0:44:40 | |
Oh, what's this? | 0:44:42 | 0:44:44 | |
Oh, look, a little more masonry from the Bridge of Sighs. | 0:44:44 | 0:44:48 | |
Bit heavy on the marzipan. | 0:44:52 | 0:44:54 | |
But then so were you! | 0:44:55 | 0:44:57 | |
Ben, I never want to go to another wedding ever. | 0:44:59 | 0:45:04 | |
No worries. There won't be another wedding ever. | 0:45:05 | 0:45:10 | |
Oh, yeah? | 0:45:12 | 0:45:14 | |
# I like to see you | 0:45:21 | 0:45:23 | |
# But then again | 0:45:25 | 0:45:27 | |
# That doesn't mean | 0:45:28 | 0:45:30 | |
# You mean that much to me... # | 0:45:30 | 0:45:33 | |
Everyone, hello. Hi. | 0:45:36 | 0:45:38 | |
I'd just like to say a few words. | 0:45:38 | 0:45:41 | |
Thank you all for coming. | 0:45:41 | 0:45:43 | |
This has been the most wonderful day of my whole life. | 0:45:43 | 0:45:46 | |
And it's been made all the more special by the man I'm going to spend the rest of my life with. | 0:45:49 | 0:45:55 | |
Lars! | 0:45:55 | 0:45:57 | |
Ches, I want a divorce. | 0:46:02 | 0:46:04 | |
I told you I was destined to meet the love of my life at a wedding. | 0:46:16 | 0:46:19 | |
Yes, but not your own wedding to somebody else! | 0:46:19 | 0:46:23 | |
That speech, Ben. Why did you have to mention that damn psychic? | 0:46:23 | 0:46:28 | |
-Poor Ches. -I'm cool, Mr and Mrs H. | 0:46:28 | 0:46:31 | |
I've still got my clubs and my beautiful ladies. | 0:46:31 | 0:46:35 | |
And the wedding's been good for business. | 0:46:35 | 0:46:38 | |
And it's probably best he stays single for the sake of his parents' marriage. | 0:46:38 | 0:46:42 | |
Poor Ches Senior. | 0:46:42 | 0:46:45 | |
No worries. I'm taking Mum and Dad to Acapulco for the honeymoon. | 0:46:45 | 0:46:48 | |
-Party time. -Well, gotta fly. | 0:46:48 | 0:46:52 | |
Oh, Janey, are you happy with what we talked about? | 0:46:53 | 0:46:56 | |
-Yeah, it's a great offer, Ches, but I don't want your money. -What?! | 0:46:56 | 0:47:00 | |
-I made the mistake. -Don't make another. | 0:47:00 | 0:47:04 | |
She'll be all right, Ben. | 0:47:04 | 0:47:05 | |
-She's still got us to support her. -Yippee. | 0:47:05 | 0:47:08 | |
You said some lovely things about me today, Daddy. | 0:47:08 | 0:47:11 | |
-Oh, all lies. -Stop it, Ben. You're sullying the memory of her wedding. | 0:47:11 | 0:47:15 | |
It's all right - we've always got the photos. | 0:47:15 | 0:47:18 | |
Ben, I'm sorry things didn't work out the way that you wanted | 0:47:18 | 0:47:22 | |
and maybe this will ease the pain. | 0:47:22 | 0:47:25 | |
A special gift from me to you. | 0:47:25 | 0:47:28 | |
Oh, really? Cheers. | 0:47:28 | 0:47:29 | |
I'm going to let you pay for the wedding. | 0:47:29 | 0:47:33 | |
Just going to be sick with gratitude. | 0:47:35 | 0:47:39 | |
Right, young lady. You and Lars. | 0:47:41 | 0:47:45 | |
Church wedding? | 0:47:45 | 0:47:47 | |
Mum! Dad! Emergency! | 0:47:49 | 0:47:51 | |
The money didn't arrive. | 0:47:51 | 0:47:53 | |
I think it was stolen online by cyber-pirates. | 0:47:53 | 0:47:56 | |
Anyway, the price has gone up. I need 3,000 US dollars and I need it quickly! | 0:47:56 | 0:48:00 | |
The Puppeteers' Union have joined forces with the Guild of Lady Boys. | 0:48:00 | 0:48:06 | |
Please help! | 0:48:06 | 0:48:08 | |
I can't hide from them much longer. | 0:48:08 | 0:48:11 | |
Please! | 0:48:11 | 0:48:13 | |
And...cut. | 0:48:13 | 0:48:16 | |
-Well, it was good for me. -Oh, yeah? | 0:48:18 | 0:48:21 | |
I dunno. | 0:48:21 | 0:48:23 | |
"Cyber-pirates"? Do you think they'll buy that? | 0:48:23 | 0:48:25 | |
TOGETHER: Yeah. | 0:48:25 | 0:48:28 | |
One more for luck? | 0:48:28 | 0:48:30 | |
-OK. -OK. | 0:48:30 | 0:48:32 | |
I think I'll try for 4,000 this time. | 0:48:39 | 0:48:41 |
