0:00:26 > 0:00:29MUSIC: "Unchained Melody" by The Righteous Brothers

0:00:29 > 0:00:31# Oh, my love

0:00:31 > 0:00:34# My darling... #

0:00:36 > 0:00:37Not a word to anyone?

0:00:38 > 0:00:40Scouts' honour.

0:00:42 > 0:00:47# A long, lonely time

0:00:53 > 0:00:55# And time... #

0:01:00 > 0:01:02- Got any soap?- Huh?

0:01:03 > 0:01:05Oh, my... Yeah...

0:01:09 > 0:01:10There.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15Oh, lovely.

0:01:15 > 0:01:19I thought I might grab a bowl of this to take upstairs.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21Actually, you might need that?

0:01:21 > 0:01:24I'm sure I can find you a bowl somewhere...

0:01:24 > 0:01:26Eh, cereal with three-day-old beans...

0:01:26 > 0:01:29- No, thanks! Gross! - It's not usually this bad.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32Oh, well, so, secretly, you're hygienic!

0:01:50 > 0:01:52- Like I say... - Thanks...

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Yeah, good job. Thanks, man. Thanks.

0:01:56 > 0:01:57Let's do it.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03I managed to squeeze everyone in.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05Cinderella, Buttons, the Uglies.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08Look at Zara!

0:02:08 > 0:02:10Makes me glad I'm just the stage manager.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12"Just" stage manager?

0:02:12 > 0:02:14There's no just about it, yours is a pivotal role!

0:02:14 > 0:02:16Costume, props, scenery...

0:02:16 > 0:02:18Talking of which, we need to have a chat later.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21Yes, we can, but then, please, can I start to get on with it?

0:02:21 > 0:02:24- Of course, how about lunch? I'm buying.- Ooh.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26- My room, two o'clock, sandwiches?- Oh(!)

0:02:29 > 0:02:32Erm, it's normal to have the director's name on the poster.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35And the writer.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37Silly old custom, I'll...

0:02:37 > 0:02:39leave it up to you.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Oh, you've tidied up! Bless!

0:02:41 > 0:02:42Don't do it for me.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44I wasn't really...

0:02:44 > 0:02:46Seriously, makes a nice change.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48From being followed around with a dustpan and brush

0:02:48 > 0:02:50and a massive can of air-freshener.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52Tembe's not that bad, is she?

0:02:52 > 0:02:55Give me a student dive any day!

0:02:59 > 0:03:02I reckon I'd have made a good student.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05Maybe not the studying bit, but all the rest.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07- What do you reckon?- Huh?

0:03:07 > 0:03:09Yeah, you'd have made a great student.

0:03:10 > 0:03:11No, the colour.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27I don't know about this.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29Not now.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31Not now we're here.

0:03:31 > 0:03:32What if she...?

0:03:34 > 0:03:37- I mean, what if...? - What if it goes great?

0:03:40 > 0:03:41We should go.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44You're not turning back now.

0:03:45 > 0:03:47What was that promise?

0:03:47 > 0:03:50- After the APC went up, the promise to yourself.- I know.

0:03:54 > 0:03:55Well, go on, then.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01- TV:- The over-crowding crisis in our...

0:04:01 > 0:04:04Oh, why's everything so complicated?

0:04:04 > 0:04:06Why can't you just get up and turn it over?

0:04:06 > 0:04:08When you've got 900 channels to flick through,

0:04:08 > 0:04:11you'd be up and down the sofa, like a...

0:04:11 > 0:04:12Like a tart's knickers?

0:04:12 > 0:04:14Yeah, like a tart's knickers.

0:04:15 > 0:04:19It is interesting, because you can use your phone and computer fine.

0:04:19 > 0:04:24- But when it comes to the remote... - Oh, no idea.

0:04:24 > 0:04:25Selective memory.

0:04:26 > 0:04:28Oh, well, it's probably just shot.

0:04:28 > 0:04:32- I am 100 years old, after all. - Hm.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34We could always test it.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37I could teach you some memorising techniques! Might be fun!

0:04:38 > 0:04:39Hmm!

0:04:45 > 0:04:46She's there.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Well, that's a good start. Go on.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52Remember what we said all along?

0:04:52 > 0:04:54Focus on the dream.

0:04:54 > 0:04:57- Walk towards it, one step at a time.- I know.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Well, go on. Steps.

0:05:02 > 0:05:03Dance steps.

0:05:03 > 0:05:06Just go and say hello.

0:05:06 > 0:05:07She's going to be gobsmacked.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10What, that you're walking so well?

0:05:10 > 0:05:12To see me!

0:05:12 > 0:05:14What, she's not expecting you?

0:05:14 > 0:05:15Course not!

0:05:15 > 0:05:18What, you didn't tell her you were coming?

0:05:18 > 0:05:21That's the dream - the surprise!

0:05:21 > 0:05:23The look on her face when I walk in.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37Frank! Hello, stranger!

0:05:38 > 0:05:41What are you doing here?

0:05:41 > 0:05:44I just wondered if you fancied a dance?

0:05:44 > 0:05:46Of course I would!

0:05:46 > 0:05:48OK, you can go. Sorry, guys.

0:06:08 > 0:06:12MUSIC: "At Last" by Etta James

0:06:14 > 0:06:16August, September, October, November, December.

0:06:16 > 0:06:19The mnemonic device is a way of associating an object

0:06:19 > 0:06:22you know really well with a thing that you're trying to remember.

0:06:22 > 0:06:26So let's say you have to memorise the playing cards

0:06:26 > 0:06:27king, queen, Jack.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30What do you associate with king?

0:06:31 > 0:06:35- Elvis. - Thank you very much. Queen?

0:06:35 > 0:06:39- # Mama, I just killed a man... # - Bohemian Rhapsody. Great.

0:06:39 > 0:06:40Jack.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43Er... I dunno...

0:06:43 > 0:06:44Jack Rabbit.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47OK. Now what if you had to remember them

0:06:47 > 0:06:51- in the order of Jack, queen, king? Hmm?- I...

0:06:51 > 0:06:56You say Jack Rabbit, Mama, I just killed a man, Elvis.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58- Weird? - Yeah, a bit.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01Wouldn't it be a easier just to remember king, Jack, queen?

0:07:01 > 0:07:03Yeah, but the order you were given was Jack, queen, king.

0:07:03 > 0:07:07- Ah...- I think we're missing the point.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10See, ultimately, I'm talking about visualisation.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14Do you need to take a break?

0:07:16 > 0:07:18Karen?

0:07:24 > 0:07:27Wow! Wow! Who...? Who's this?

0:07:27 > 0:07:29Oh, just an old friend.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Come on.

0:07:40 > 0:07:44- You learning your lines? - Trying to.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46Ever thought about using mnemonics?

0:07:46 > 0:07:48Cheeky.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50- Do you want me to test you? - Go on, then.

0:07:52 > 0:07:54I have to say, it's a recurring nightmare of mine.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56I'm stood up in front of a group of people,

0:07:56 > 0:07:59haven't got a clue what I'm supposed to be saying.

0:07:59 > 0:08:00I wonder where that comes from.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Did you do school plays or something? - Just one. Had to say,

0:08:03 > 0:08:07"Hark, three kings approach, riding upon donkeys."

0:08:07 > 0:08:08See? Still got it.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13OK. I am Cinderella. You are Buttons.

0:08:13 > 0:08:17"Oh, Buttons, tall, dark, handsome is he."

0:08:17 > 0:08:18Oh. Thank you very much.

0:08:18 > 0:08:21"Prince Charming's got everything except..."

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Except any chest hair, cos he's clearly played by a woman.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27It doesn't say that.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29Keep going.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31"..except for me."

0:08:32 > 0:08:34"You don't want the prince, with his...

0:08:34 > 0:08:36"Cute little nose and sparkling eyes."

0:08:36 > 0:08:40Sparkling? It's just cos he's drunk. Who wants a cute little nose?

0:08:40 > 0:08:41You want Cyrano de Bergerac.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43You know what they say, the bigger the nose,

0:08:43 > 0:08:46the bigger the...handkerchief!

0:08:46 > 0:08:49- You can't keep making it up. - I can't help myself.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52OK.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54"You don't want the prince, with his..."

0:08:54 > 0:08:56"Cute little nose and sparkling eyes."

0:08:56 > 0:09:03"..for it is closer to home that your true love lies."

0:09:03 > 0:09:05"Pause for laughter."

0:09:05 > 0:09:07Pause for tumbleweed.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Amway, come on, do it properly or else you'll never get it right.

0:09:11 > 0:09:14Go from...

0:09:14 > 0:09:16"You don't want the prince, with his..."

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Can I just ask one quick question?

0:09:18 > 0:09:22How come you've learnt my lines quicker than I have?

0:09:22 > 0:09:23That's true.

0:09:25 > 0:09:26Pause for laughter.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29Pause for a cup of tea while I make a note of this.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40Third prize.

0:09:41 > 0:09:42We couldn't believe it.

0:09:42 > 0:09:45Only been dancing two months.

0:09:45 > 0:09:50I started cos I saw Kelly go in the hall and I thought, "Whoa!"

0:09:50 > 0:09:53So, I walked in right behind her.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55Next thing, the instructor's going, "Take your partners,"

0:09:55 > 0:09:57so I went straight up to Kelly.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01You must have the feet for it.

0:10:01 > 0:10:05I followed her, to be honest. I thought, "Don't blow it.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07"Don't make her look stupid."

0:10:09 > 0:10:10And I did OK.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14I found something out that day.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16You can do anything if you want it bad enough.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20My friends ripped it out of me.

0:10:21 > 0:10:25Started calling me Foxtrot Tango cos of my initials.

0:10:25 > 0:10:28But it was never about dancing. It was always about Kelly.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32Same with all this...

0:10:32 > 0:10:34Getting back on my feet.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38Well, it's been a long enough road, that's for sure.

0:10:39 > 0:10:40But it's not over yet.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45And now the reason for doing it's gone.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47You can't think like that.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49In fact, a suggestion...

0:10:51 > 0:10:55Put the trophy away. Keep it for what it is - it's a good memory.

0:10:55 > 0:10:58But there'll be plenty more.

0:10:58 > 0:10:59PHONE RINGS

0:10:59 > 0:11:01You can do this on your own. I'm serious.

0:11:01 > 0:11:06What was it you just said? "If you want it bad enough"?

0:11:06 > 0:11:07Bellamy.

0:11:09 > 0:11:10Yes.

0:11:10 > 0:11:1220 minutes. Bye.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15I've got to get back to work.

0:11:15 > 0:11:16I'll see you very soon.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20You'll be fine, twinkle toes.

0:11:29 > 0:11:34Ham and cheese sandwiches, essential for any pantomime, wouldn't you say?

0:11:36 > 0:11:37So..

0:11:37 > 0:11:41So, I would like to get a couple of things nailed down, Heston,

0:11:41 > 0:11:44make sure we're on the same song sheet.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47- Can we talk about scenery? - Absolutely.

0:11:47 > 0:11:52So, obviously we want to keep things simple. You know those...

0:11:52 > 0:11:55Those folding partition things that you get in offices?

0:11:55 > 0:11:56All we need is, like, three of them.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59We can paint on bricks...

0:11:59 > 0:12:01and windows, trees,

0:12:01 > 0:12:04design something general onto lining paper, you know,

0:12:04 > 0:12:06make it look quite fun.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08Stick it on both sides, so we can turn it round.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10And then the clever bit, I thought...

0:12:10 > 0:12:13Actually, I think we can afford to be

0:12:13 > 0:12:16a little bit more ambitious than that.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18OK. First night, picture the scene.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21The audience settles, ready to be transported through

0:12:21 > 0:12:24the magic of theatre into a land of dreams.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26The curtain opens, the lights come up

0:12:26 > 0:12:32to reveal three office partitions covered in painted wallpaper.

0:12:32 > 0:12:33Marvellous(!)

0:12:33 > 0:12:35Fine.

0:12:35 > 0:12:39It's not a criticism. I just don't want us to appear amateur.

0:12:39 > 0:12:43- It IS amateur, though.- That's a bit defeatist, don't you think?- No!

0:12:43 > 0:12:44Wonder and dreams are all very well,

0:12:44 > 0:12:47but this is medical staff in their spare time

0:12:47 > 0:12:49and it's happening soon.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52- That's if it happens at all. - What do you mean?

0:12:52 > 0:12:55I mean, we need to be practical, Heston.

0:12:55 > 0:12:59You know, make lists, tick things off and stop getting carried away,

0:12:59 > 0:13:00otherwise it's not going to happen.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03Mandy, yes, of course. Thank you.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06- You need a list of jobs. - Exactly.

0:13:06 > 0:13:10OK. Let's start with the sub heading for design.

0:13:10 > 0:13:17Scenery. Obtain/manufacture paint, set dressing...

0:13:17 > 0:13:19We can discuss the details later.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22..costume design. Obtain some fabric...

0:13:22 > 0:13:25It's a good job I don't have any nursing to do, isn't it(?)

0:13:25 > 0:13:28I know, but think how worthwhile it'll be

0:13:28 > 0:13:30when the standing ovation lifts the roof.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32And I have another surprise for you.

0:13:32 > 0:13:34You will be on stage too, taking a bow,

0:13:34 > 0:13:37- because I need you to play the part of Dandini.- What?

0:13:37 > 0:13:39Pam the cleaner was down to do it,

0:13:39 > 0:13:41but it conflicts with her pilates class.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44Don't worry, there are no lines. You'll hardly know you're doing it.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47I knew you'd be pleased.

0:14:17 > 0:14:18Ta-da!

0:14:18 > 0:14:20This is the Wiki site.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23Wiki, coming from the Hawaiian term wiki-wiki, meaning fast.

0:14:23 > 0:14:27The advantage here is the enhanced interactivity.

0:14:27 > 0:14:29- You with me so far? - No.- OK

0:14:29 > 0:14:31Why don't you just tell me what it does?

0:14:31 > 0:14:34Basically, your friend Maggie gave me a list of all your friends

0:14:34 > 0:14:37from back in the day and I e-mailed them, telling them that they

0:14:37 > 0:14:40- could put stuff all about you on here.- Amazing.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42It might help with your memory.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45So much of our memory has to do with context.

0:14:45 > 0:14:49If you read the real life stories, you might start to fill in the gaps.

0:14:49 > 0:14:52- So when can they put things on? - It's live now.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57Ah. A watched pot...

0:14:57 > 0:15:00Realistically, it'll take a couple of days to get a bite.

0:15:00 > 0:15:03So, how do you tell when people have done something?

0:15:03 > 0:15:04You just hit refresh.

0:15:28 > 0:15:30I need to see her.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33Just get Kelly.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36- Don't talk to me like that. - Don't stand in my way.

0:15:36 > 0:15:39- She's not in. - You're lying.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41Why don't you do one...freak?

0:15:54 > 0:15:55You all right?

0:15:55 > 0:15:59Hmm-hmm. Fine. Everything's fine.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02One of those days, eh? Why don't you take five minutes?

0:16:02 > 0:16:04Have a cup of tea. In fact, I might join you.

0:16:04 > 0:16:08- I've been meaning to have a word. - I've got a patient...

0:16:08 > 0:16:10It's about my costumes. I've got a few ideas.

0:16:10 > 0:16:12PHONE RINGS

0:16:12 > 0:16:14Excuse me.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16Hello.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21What?

0:16:22 > 0:16:24I'm sorry, Howard.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34Come on!

0:16:37 > 0:16:41- Ah! There's one from Jo Brindley! - You got one.

0:16:41 > 0:16:43"Hey Karen, remember Deakins Field

0:16:43 > 0:16:46"when my brother and his mates went camping?

0:16:46 > 0:16:49"You and me told our mums that we were staying with the other

0:16:49 > 0:16:50"one for the night,

0:16:50 > 0:16:54"and then we went drinking cider until it got light." Oh, yes.

0:16:54 > 0:16:58"And a cow ran over the tent, and Betty grassed us up!"

0:16:58 > 0:17:00Flipping Betty lived next door.

0:17:00 > 0:17:03She could hear our garden gate squeak from a mile away.

0:17:03 > 0:17:07My mum was mad, but we just laughed.

0:17:07 > 0:17:12"My dad was so cross, he cricked his neck and had a week off work."

0:17:12 > 0:17:15Oh, I'd forgotten that! Wow!

0:17:22 > 0:17:25- Don't worry. - Kelly, sorry.

0:17:28 > 0:17:29I'm Howard Bellamy.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32I saw you at the dance hall earlier.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34We didn't get the chance to be introduced.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37I've been mentoring Frank through rehab.

0:17:37 > 0:17:38I'll make sure he behaves.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41Please, Kelly, I don't want to cause you trouble -

0:17:41 > 0:17:43that's why I left at the hall. But...

0:17:43 > 0:17:45What's going on?

0:17:45 > 0:17:49What's going on? You tell me. You turn up here and hit Mark!

0:17:49 > 0:17:53I shouldn't have done that, but seeing him in my place...

0:17:53 > 0:17:55Sorry?

0:17:55 > 0:17:56Why are you being so harsh?

0:17:59 > 0:18:01OK. What USED to be my place.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05Frank, we've never been in a relationship.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08- You're not taking that away from me. - There's nothing to take away.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10What are you talking about?

0:18:10 > 0:18:13- I'm not having this, Frank. Anyway, Mark'll be back any minute.- Kelly!

0:18:13 > 0:18:14Leave me alone!

0:18:16 > 0:18:18No.

0:18:20 > 0:18:21Frank, what's going on?

0:18:25 > 0:18:27Have you got a girlfriend?

0:18:27 > 0:18:30Me? No.

0:18:30 > 0:18:35Every time I dip my toes in Lake Romance, they get bitten off.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37- And after last time... - What happened?

0:18:39 > 0:18:41I don't know.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44I'm not really built for affairs of the heart.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47Besides, it's probably best just to stay clear.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49Who was she?

0:18:49 > 0:18:52A work colleague.

0:18:52 > 0:18:56Oh, Buttons! You went after Cinderella.

0:18:56 > 0:18:58HE LAUGHS

0:18:58 > 0:18:59Yeah, I suppose I did.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01Has this panto taught you nothing?

0:19:01 > 0:19:06- What? I should go after an ugly sister instead?- Yeah!

0:19:06 > 0:19:07For the practice.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10You know. I mean, you've got to get back in the saddle.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13Hmm. I think you're right.

0:19:13 > 0:19:15The time has come.

0:19:15 > 0:19:19- Yay! Get a girlfriend! - No. Do the washing up.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22Oh! Go on, then, and I'll dry.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26DOORBELL RINGS

0:19:29 > 0:19:31I can't apologise enough.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36I know there's something not right here.

0:19:36 > 0:19:38Can I just explain something?

0:19:40 > 0:19:43I'm guessing you haven't heard from Frank for a while, right?

0:19:43 > 0:19:44Yeah.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46- Well, he's been very badly hurt... - Not by me.

0:19:46 > 0:19:49No. By a Taliban bomb.

0:19:50 > 0:19:53It destroyed his vehicle and killed one of his friends,

0:19:53 > 0:19:55and he's been struggling with his injury.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59Perhaps more from post-traumatic stress.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03He's had to pull himself out of a dark place.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06For the last eight months, he's been on a very slippery slope.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09And he's needed an anchor,

0:20:09 > 0:20:12something strong and definite.

0:20:12 > 0:20:16And rightly or wrongly, that something was how he felt about you.

0:20:19 > 0:20:20I didn't know.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23I'm sorry. I assumed you did,

0:20:23 > 0:20:26otherwise I'd have never have let it get this far.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28But here we are.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30But I'm worried if we...

0:20:32 > 0:20:36I'm worried if we don't sort out this misunderstanding...

0:20:36 > 0:20:39Well, he'll just... He'll be back where he started.

0:20:43 > 0:20:48Oh...!

0:20:48 > 0:20:51- How's your day?- Oh. Apart from horrendous Cinderella, fine.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54- Right.- Can't anybody talk about anything else?

0:20:54 > 0:20:59Yeah, I agree. Actually, I do have a question about my costume though.

0:21:00 > 0:21:03All it is, what do I wear on my legs? Cos it's not stockings, is it?

0:21:03 > 0:21:05I wouldn't have thought it would have to be stockings.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08Are you talking costume? Great.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11I was wondering if I could have a word, if you've got ten minutes.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14- Ten?- I thought I'd save you the bother of designing mine.

0:21:14 > 0:21:20- Well, I wasn't going to. I was just going to go to a charity shop.- Oh!

0:21:22 > 0:21:26Oh, no. No, Mandy, that will look very am dram.

0:21:26 > 0:21:28We need something striking for the ball.

0:21:28 > 0:21:31I've actually done some sketches.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34Sorry, I haven't drawn since I was at college, but you get the idea.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39Who's going to make that?

0:21:39 > 0:21:41Back to the stockings, just for a second.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43Actually, It's not the stockings that I'm worried about,

0:21:43 > 0:21:45it's the suspenders I'm not really keen on.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48And... I wouldn't have thought tights would be good either,

0:21:48 > 0:21:51so I was thinking trousers. Girls' trousers, obviously.

0:21:51 > 0:21:54- Actually, yes, can I have a word? - Stitch and bitch.- I beg your pardon?

0:21:54 > 0:21:56We need to talk boots.

0:21:56 > 0:21:57Your sewing group.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00I would have thought they'd be delighted to help.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02After all, it is for children with cancer.

0:22:09 > 0:22:10Frank.

0:22:12 > 0:22:13Would you like me to stay?

0:22:26 > 0:22:29Let's get this straight, Frank.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33We used to dance together. We were mates.

0:22:33 > 0:22:36You used to write letters to me about what was going on out there.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39- I used to write back. - With kisses.

0:22:39 > 0:22:42- They're not real, Frank. - There was one that one time.

0:22:42 > 0:22:43- One kiss.- On the lips.

0:22:43 > 0:22:47A kiss goodnight. And I'm sorry, Frank, it meant nothing.

0:22:53 > 0:22:54I should have died.

0:22:56 > 0:22:58You can feel it flowing out of you like a river.

0:22:59 > 0:23:03But I thought of me and you dancing...

0:23:06 > 0:23:08And you knew...

0:23:08 > 0:23:11because I wrote it in the letters, didn't I?

0:23:19 > 0:23:23I stopped opening them when you started getting heavy.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25Yeah? Well, why didn't you throw them out, then?

0:23:25 > 0:23:27I'm with Mark.

0:23:27 > 0:23:30We're getting married. You knew I stopped writing back, Frank.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33The army stopped them cos we were stuck out in the middle of nowhere.

0:23:39 > 0:23:43- Frank, why did you never call me? - When?

0:23:43 > 0:23:47You've been back for months. Why not, Frank?

0:23:53 > 0:23:57You didn't call because you knew it was all in your head.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01I... I needed it to be true.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11I'm sorry.

0:24:11 > 0:24:13I'm sorry if you got the wrong idea.

0:24:13 > 0:24:17But, Frank, please don't come round again.

0:24:23 > 0:24:28MUSIC: "Unchained Melody" by Bobby Hatfield

0:25:03 > 0:25:05Hope you don't fancy another dance.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09Done that. No backward steps.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14You know, it was only eight months ago they wheeled

0:25:14 > 0:25:16you off a plane into Housmans.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19You didn't even know if you were going to take any steps,

0:25:19 > 0:25:20forwards or backwards.

0:25:20 > 0:25:22Yeah. That was scary.

0:25:24 > 0:25:29But today...a giant leap...forwards.

0:25:29 > 0:25:30Yeah.

0:25:31 > 0:25:34It's weird, but...yeah.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40Thanks for everything, you know.

0:25:44 > 0:25:48- Yes, Jimmi, got the message. - Not ones with a zip at the back.

0:25:48 > 0:25:50They could probably work straight from these. Do you think?

0:25:50 > 0:25:52I do need to know, is there going to be a fitting?

0:25:52 > 0:25:54You do know the Principal Boy wears boots?

0:25:54 > 0:25:57- They're absolutely essential. - I was going to try...- Thigh high.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59It's part of the pantomime tradition.

0:25:59 > 0:26:00Anything less is absolutely unacceptable.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03Is this the healthy buzz of theatrical production I hear?

0:26:03 > 0:26:05Good. Now, Mandy, since our last meeting,

0:26:05 > 0:26:07- one or two thought have occurred to me.- What?

0:26:07 > 0:26:09Like how I'm going to take everybody's

0:26:09 > 0:26:12- coats as they arrive, as well? - No, I don't think that'll be...

0:26:12 > 0:26:13Oh, you're making a joke.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18Mandy is a fully paid up member of the cast, everybody.

0:26:18 > 0:26:19Meet Dandini!

0:26:19 > 0:26:21ALL TALK OVER EACH OTHER

0:26:21 > 0:26:25I'm afraid, right now, Dandini has a patient waiting. So please...

0:26:25 > 0:26:27Yes, Mandy is right.

0:26:27 > 0:26:31There are far more important things to discuss than costume.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35For example, stage lighting.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40Mandy?

0:26:40 > 0:26:41Mandy?

0:26:45 > 0:26:47Your mum signed this?

0:26:47 > 0:26:49This is her consent?

0:26:49 > 0:26:52If you feel that strongly about it, you sort it.

0:26:52 > 0:26:55You sent my vulnerable and confused wife to stay with that creep?!

0:26:55 > 0:26:57No, I did not. I mean, it was not my idea.

0:26:57 > 0:27:00First tell me what A-level grades you got.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02I don't mean to sound ungrateful.

0:27:02 > 0:27:03Well, you do.

0:27:03 > 0:27:05It's a tricky job, this one.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07- Surveillance. - Great.
