Oi! Oi! What the hell do you think you're playing at?! | 0:00:42 | 0:00:46 | |
Stop that now! | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |

Oi! | 0:00:51 | 0:00:53 | |
Oh, God! | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
SNORING | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
Yeah, police. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:01 | |
I'd like to report a micturating drunk passed out on my property. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:07 | |
Oh, dear. Oh, dear. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
Weeing, yes, on my decorations. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
Bernard Price, 81 Foster Avenue. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:18 | |
Thank you, and preferably before he wakes up. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:22 | |
Not a very auspicious start to the festivities, is it? | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
It's all under control, Mr Evans. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
It's unfortunate we see an increase in such loutish behaviour. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
Season of goodwill, et cetera. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
Still, only so much you can do. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
Exactly. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:38 | |
Though, got to think of appearances. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:42 | |
Best find something to...cover up his baubles. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:48 | |
Ah, good morning. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:56 | |
-Morning. -Hi. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:57 | |
Dr Granger, I have had a phone message from a Mrs Lomax | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
regarding a cosmetic appointment. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
Apparently she wants to look her best for the party season. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
OK, thank you. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:07 | |
She wanted to see you today, but you are fully booked. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
I see you have put time aside for a partners' meeting. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
Which we can't reschedule. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:14 | |
I wouldn't do that. Leave it with me. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:16 | |
Well, I have drawn up some points of order for your consideration. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:20 | |
Such as? | 0:02:20 | 0:02:21 | |
Oh, well, I can print them off. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
We can discuss them at the time. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
Actually, we'll be deciding the shortlist for the practice manager's job today. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:33 | |
It wouldn't be appropriate for you to be there. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
No. No, of course. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:41 | |
Morning. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
I'm ready for my close-up, Mr Bailey. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
Well, once I've got my slap on. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:50 | |
You're going to die when you see me. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
I will be covering for Mrs Hollins while she has her photoshoot. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
Miss Pitman is at the Campus Surgery. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
It was not worth getting a temp at such short notice. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:03 | |
So, of course you can use my... You can use the office. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:08 | |
No need, we can use mine. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
-Shall we say 11? -Hm. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:12 | |
So, lunchtime? We all set? | 0:03:12 | 0:03:13 | |
Yeah, fine. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
OK, shall I come with...? | 0:03:15 | 0:03:17 | |
Oh! Rude. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:18 | |
You are not going to recognise me. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
I look forward to it. I have some calls to make. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:26 | |
Right. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
For the benefit of the tape, you've waived your right to a solicitor. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:37 | |
-I can speak for myself. -Yeah. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
And you agree with the custody sergeant that you're fit to interview | 0:03:39 | 0:03:43 | |
-and you understand you've been arrested for being drunk and disorderly? -Again. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:47 | |
When we brought you in, you said you'd been put up to it. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:51 | |
I said it cos I was. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
He paid me to do it, an' all. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
Look, I want a drink. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
You've had coffee - several of them. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:58 | |
A proper drink. Keep the cold out. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
We're not the Ritz, Mr Lowe. Right, I'll ask you again, just to be sure. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:06 | |
You are saying that someone, a man, | 0:04:06 | 0:04:07 | |
paid you to go and decorate the decorations on Foster Avenue? | 0:04:07 | 0:04:11 | |
Only the ones at that house. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:14 | |
Do you know him? Had you seen him before? | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
Mr Lowe, you're shaking your head. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:18 | |
For the sake of the tape, can you answer the question? | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
No, I've not met him before. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
Would you recognise him? | 0:04:24 | 0:04:25 | |
Where did you meet him? | 0:04:26 | 0:04:28 | |
Dunno. Offy on the Jubilee, probably. My local. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:33 | |
30 quid, he gives us, but only if I spent it all on booze | 0:04:36 | 0:04:42 | |
and recycled it at the one place, he said. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:45 | |
So he was paid to do it? I've been deliberately targeted? | 0:04:48 | 0:04:53 | |
-Apparently. -Well, what a horrible thing to do. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
Can you think of anyone? | 0:04:55 | 0:04:56 | |
Not really, no. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
Well, there's always Herman the German. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:02 | |
-And who's he? -Next door. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
Moved in a few months back. Got a bit snippy about the lights. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
Doesn't do a thing to his own garden. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
It looks like a shambles, really. Lowers the tone. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:11 | |
And you two have had words? | 0:05:11 | 0:05:12 | |
Yeah, next door, the German. You see if I'm not right. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:16 | |
I can well believe he'd have no respect for the sanctity of sovereign soil. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:21 | |
-Next, Duncan Anstee? -Hm. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
Just told us what he thought we wanted to hear. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:27 | |
-And not all we needed to know. That's a no from me. -Agreed. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:30 | |
The standard was really high. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:31 | |
Yeah. So, looks like we've drawn up the same shortlist? | 0:05:31 | 0:05:35 | |
Looks like advertising the job in December was a good idea. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
Yeah. Could've gone either way. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:39 | |
You were right to cast the net wider. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:41 | |
Yeah. Like I say, we had nothing to lose. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:44 | |
So, any other business? | 0:05:44 | 0:05:45 | |
Why would I know anything | 0:05:47 | 0:05:48 | |
about a man using my neighbour's garden as a toilet? | 0:05:48 | 0:05:51 | |
I'm just asking if you witnessed the event, Mr Bork. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
I go for a run every morning about eight. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:56 | |
What time did you get back? | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
My route usually takes about 40, 45 minutes. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:01 | |
I saw the police car, so I'm assuming I missed the fun. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:04 | |
Your English is very good. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
So is yours. Your accent, not local? | 0:06:06 | 0:06:09 | |
Yorkshire, perhaps? | 0:06:09 | 0:06:11 | |
Hm. Yes. Excellent. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
Mr Price said you two had had frank exchanges of views in the past. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
I made a joke about his house being seen from space, | 0:06:18 | 0:06:22 | |
like the Great Wall of China. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:24 | |
Hardly a criticism. It is bright. More an observation. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:29 | |
What about the other things? | 0:06:29 | 0:06:31 | |
As I explained to him, I'm renting the house for a year | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
while I'm at the university's language department. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:37 | |
I pay for a gardening service through the letting agent, | 0:06:37 | 0:06:39 | |
but they are proving to be unreliable. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
You think there's a connection. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:45 | |
It clearly was not me urinating on Mr Price's Christmas display. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:49 | |
We're just following a line of inquiry. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:51 | |
What? That I would arrange for this | 0:06:51 | 0:06:52 | |
because Mr Price is not a good neighbour? | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
OK. But if you do think of anything else... | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
Just so we're clear - | 0:06:57 | 0:06:58 | |
this seems rather an elaborate practical joke at best. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:02 | |
It's not a joke, sir. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:04 | |
A joke, a plot, yes, Mr Price has been unpleasant from the day | 0:07:04 | 0:07:07 | |
I moved in, but I don't take the bait. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:09 | |
Oh, Sid! Can you give me a hand? | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
Oh, sorry, I can't stop. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:16 | |
Thanks a lot(!) | 0:07:16 | 0:07:17 | |
You don't want to let Mrs Tembe catch you doing that | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
without a high vis jacket and a hard hat. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
Not that anybody's bothered about anything at the minute. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
It's my calendar shoot today and nobody cares! | 0:07:27 | 0:07:31 | |
Do you think the novelty's worn off? | 0:07:31 | 0:07:33 | |
Absolutely. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:34 | |
That's why I'm putting fairy lights up, to brighten the place up. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:37 | |
No, no - the calendar shoot - so Daniel was James Bond | 0:07:37 | 0:07:41 | |
and everybody treated him like he was the actual one! | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
Nobody's even asked me what I'm going to be. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
Oh, don't worry about it. Just pretend the camera's not there, and be yourself. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
Well, I'm not going to be myself! | 0:07:51 | 0:07:53 | |
I'm going to be somebody you wouldn't guess in a million years. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:57 | |
Do you want a clue? | 0:07:57 | 0:07:58 | |
Do these lights look wonky? | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
Who cares?! | 0:08:00 | 0:08:01 | |
Wow, even the mural gets decorations. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:07 | |
Seasons greetings, Howard. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
Seasons greetings, Mrs Tembe. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
I'm sorry, but I've been meaning to ask for ages... | 0:08:13 | 0:08:17 | |
Who is this? | 0:08:17 | 0:08:18 | |
He used a really old photo that he had of me. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:20 | |
I used to be blonde, all right? | 0:08:20 | 0:08:23 | |
Anyway, are you going to stand there | 0:08:23 | 0:08:25 | |
or are you going to give me a hand, Haskey? | 0:08:25 | 0:08:27 | |
Hm. What do I get in return, blondie? | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
Hey! | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
Why do you hate Christmas? | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
Excuse me? | 0:08:38 | 0:08:39 | |
How small-minded have you got to be that you'd arrange | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
a disgusting little show like that this morning? | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
That was nothing to do with me. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
You're denying help to sick children. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
You're being ridiculous! | 0:08:48 | 0:08:49 | |
I don't hate Christmas and I love all children. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:52 | |
I'm German! We gave you Christmas, don't forget. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
What rubbish! | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
The trees, cake, advent calendars - all German traditions. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
You even have a big German Christmas market in Birmingham. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:02 | |
You're welcome, Mr Price. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:03 | |
No-one does Christmas better than the English. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:06 | |
Charles Dickens! You may have got some ideas from the Victorians, | 0:09:06 | 0:09:10 | |
but we took it and improved it. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:11 | |
Really? | 0:09:11 | 0:09:12 | |
Yeah. Read A Christmas Carol. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:15 | |
There's the true spirit of Christmas. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:17 | |
Herr Bork, you're welcome. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:20 | |
"If I could work my will, | 0:09:20 | 0:09:22 | |
"every idiot who goes about with Merry Christmas on his lips | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
"should be boiled with his own pudding | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
"and buried with a stake of holly through his heart!" | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
Very seasonal, Herr Price. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:31 | |
It's not like there hasn't been something between us. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:40 | |
You've come to mean... No. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:44 | |
Er... We've had a great time and it's me, it's definitely not you. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:48 | |
Eh, what ya saying? Are you telling me to sling me hook? | 0:09:48 | 0:09:53 | |
-But you're my Yorkshire pudding, you are. -What are you doing? | 0:09:53 | 0:09:55 | |
-If you're not going to take this seriously... -Sorry. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
You don't have to do her voice. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:00 | |
OK. All right. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
But I really like you. I thought you were the one! | 0:10:04 | 0:10:08 | |
Well, OK, bottom line - I'm Jean-Luc Picard, | 0:10:08 | 0:10:12 | |
you're the Borg Queen, my shields are damaged but they're... | 0:10:12 | 0:10:16 | |
No, no, no, no, no, no. Seriously. Star Trek? | 0:10:16 | 0:10:19 | |
Come on! That's phasers set to cliche. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:22 | |
Look, we'll go through it again over lunch, that you're buying. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
Thank you. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:27 | |
I've been thinking about questions for the interviews. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:35 | |
Me, too. Want to run them by me? | 0:10:35 | 0:10:37 | |
I've got to get ready for Karen but I can print them out later. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
OK. Do you know who she's going to be? | 0:10:40 | 0:10:42 | |
Nah. I've tried to get it out of her, but... | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
Hey, um, do you think this dual partnership thing is going to work | 0:10:44 | 0:10:49 | |
-until Zara gets back? -We've managed not to kill each other so far. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
True. I was wondering, should we be looking for a practice manager | 0:10:54 | 0:11:00 | |
who's got partnership potential? | 0:11:00 | 0:11:02 | |
You want to discuss that at the interviews? | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
-Oh, maybe it's too much, too soon. Just putting it out there. -Hm. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:08 | |
What about someone here? | 0:11:08 | 0:11:10 | |
Al's been making noises. | 0:11:10 | 0:11:12 | |
Yeah. I'm not sure. | 0:11:12 | 0:11:14 | |
Thought he was a mate? | 0:11:14 | 0:11:16 | |
Yeah, exactly, so I know what I'm talking about. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:18 | |
-Yeah. -What about Emma? | 0:11:18 | 0:11:20 | |
Do you think she'd be interested after what happened last time? | 0:11:20 | 0:11:23 | |
-Could always sound her out. -Yeah. | 0:11:23 | 0:11:24 | |
Well, listen, let's shelve it until she gets back. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:27 | |
-See you in a bit. -OK. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:29 | |
Right. Well, that's it for now. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:34 | |
About flaming time. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:36 | |
You're in the magistrates' court on Monday. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:39 | |
Won't matter. Like I can pay a fine. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:41 | |
Yeah, well, you can always ask Santa. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
This bloke. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
He might've, and I wouldn't swear to it in court, | 0:11:48 | 0:11:51 | |
had a bit of an accent. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
What, you didn't think to tell me that in the interview? | 0:11:54 | 0:11:57 | |
What kind of accent? | 0:11:57 | 0:11:58 | |
No idea. | 0:11:58 | 0:11:59 | |
I've been pretty out of it. | 0:11:59 | 0:12:01 | |
Money like that gets you the good stuff, | 0:12:01 | 0:12:04 | |
not the usual metal polish or cough syrup. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:07 | |
So that's it. An accent. | 0:12:07 | 0:12:08 | |
Yeah, that and he was dressed like, ah, you know, one of Santa's things. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:14 | |
You know... Er... | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
Reindeer? | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
Reindeer, talk daft! | 0:12:23 | 0:12:26 | |
Santa's...helpers! | 0:12:26 | 0:12:31 | |
An elf? | 0:12:32 | 0:12:33 | |
The man who gave you the money was dressed like an elf? | 0:12:33 | 0:12:37 | |
MUSIC: Changes by David Bowie | 0:12:37 | 0:12:41 | |
St Phil's. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:24 | |
Thank you. | 0:13:25 | 0:13:27 | |
Come back after dark - bring the family! | 0:13:27 | 0:13:29 | |
Much more impressive. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:31 | |

All I'm saying is, | 0:13:45 | 0:13:46 | |
it's made me realise monogamy's not all it's cracked up to be. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:49 | |
Sleeping around is a sign of maturity. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:51 | |
What does lifelong commitment have going for it? It's not natural. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:55 | |
Swans mate for life. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:57 | |
Which would explain why they're so bad-tempered. | 0:13:57 | 0:14:00 | |
I can understand it, if you had a family with someone. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:03 | |
Oh, so there are circumstances in which you can see it happening? | 0:14:03 | 0:14:07 | |
No, not so sure. I don't really see myself having kids. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:10 | |
Wow! | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
Why wow? | 0:14:12 | 0:14:14 | |
You don't like helping with the washing-up | 0:14:14 | 0:14:16 | |
and you're not going to have any woman come near you. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:19 | |
Well, I don't like helping with the washing-up. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:21 | |
I suppose if I'm honest, I do miss sharing my life with someone. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:27 | |
OK, now I'm getting mixed signals. Why are you finishing with Mo? | 0:14:27 | 0:14:31 | |
Well, if you're going to do the washing-up with someone, | 0:14:31 | 0:14:35 | |
then you've got to have that magic spark, that thing, haven't you? | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
I don't have THAT with her. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:40 | |
You try and live your life without that, | 0:14:42 | 0:14:46 | |
and I bet you monogamy can be just as lonely as being alone. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:50 | |
I think you have a point. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:51 | |
But, you know, bear in mind, Al, you don't have all the time in the world. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:57 | |
Ange? | 0:15:05 | 0:15:07 | |
Come and have a look at this. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
-Foster Avenue? -Hm. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
I think it's time we paid Mr Price another visit. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:18 | |
St Phil's? | 0:15:19 | 0:15:21 | |
No, no. I don't think so. | 0:15:28 | 0:15:30 | |
I'm making a donation. Isn't that what you want? | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
Not if it's to ease your guilty conscience. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:36 | |
Why should I feel guilty? I want to give money. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:38 | |
It's a time to remember those less fortunate, no? | 0:15:38 | 0:15:40 | |
What do you mean by that? | 0:15:40 | 0:15:42 | |
Like Tiny Tim. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:43 | |
No, not so you can lord it over me! | 0:15:43 | 0:15:48 | |
Listen, you know what, we won the war, | 0:15:48 | 0:15:52 | |
but you lot seem to have come out of it better than us. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:54 | |
That is a sweeping statement, and not very accurate, or polite. | 0:15:54 | 0:15:57 | |
Oh! Hit a nerve, have I? | 0:15:57 | 0:15:59 | |
One that makes me feel sad for you. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:01 | |
Well, I don't need your pity and I don't need your money | 0:16:01 | 0:16:05 | |
and I don't need your company, so why don't you just...? | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
That'll do, Mr Price. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
How about I give this to the sergeant | 0:16:09 | 0:16:11 | |
and he puts it in your bucket - will that work? | 0:16:11 | 0:16:14 | |
So what's your problem now? | 0:16:14 | 0:16:17 | |
He's being German. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:19 | |
Sounds like he's being generous, to me. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:22 | |
You've got a track record with your neighbours, haven't you? | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
I don't know what you mean. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:26 | |
You know all too well what I mean, not to mention one or two conditions | 0:16:26 | 0:16:29 | |
placed on you for putting decorations up outside! | 0:16:29 | 0:16:31 | |
Yeah, unfair conditions! | 0:16:31 | 0:16:33 | |
Look, I'd sooner talk about this inside, if you don't mind. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:36 | |
Right, I've some test results to catch up on. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:47 | |
Is that enough role-playing for one day? | 0:16:47 | 0:16:49 | |
Yeah. I'm going to stick to my guns but I'm not going to be heartless. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
Yeah, she'll appreciate your honesty. Just not right away. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:56 | |
This isn't too much, is it? | 0:16:58 | 0:17:00 | |
I may have done the dumping but you can still be chivalrous. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
I think it's fine. It shows you're still considerate of her feelings. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:06 | |
Thank you so much for all your help. You're a magnificent agony aunt. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:10 | |
You're all right. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:12 | |
I'm going to catch you up. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:14 | |
Strike while the iron is hot. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:15 | |
Oh! You picked that up early. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
Erm, can you come over to my house this evening? | 0:17:22 | 0:17:26 | |
I found a whole string of complaints on file, Mr Price, | 0:17:27 | 0:17:31 | |
all leading back to you. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:32 | |
Leading back to, perhaps, but not about me. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:35 | |
People parking on your neighbours' driveways | 0:17:35 | 0:17:38 | |
when they came to see your display, blocking access. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:41 | |
It's not residential only parking around here. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:43 | |
Petty crime and vandalism on the rise, | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
in the weeks leading up to Christmas. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:47 | |
None of which is done by me. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:49 | |
And an abatement notice from the council, | 0:17:49 | 0:17:51 | |
limiting the amount of lights and decorations you can put up. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:53 | |
Yeah - petty-minded bureaucracy which I appealed. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:56 | |
And lost. | 0:17:56 | 0:17:57 | |
Look, I've been denied my rights. You put that on your list. | 0:17:57 | 0:18:01 | |
-Mr Lowe... -Who? | 0:18:01 | 0:18:03 | |
The man you caught decorating your decorations, | 0:18:03 | 0:18:06 | |
said that the man who paid him was dressed like an elf. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:11 | |
What, you think it was me? | 0:18:11 | 0:18:14 | |
What for - a sympathy vote? | 0:18:14 | 0:18:17 | |
Or somebody who's still angry about what you do. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:20 | |
Somebody who wants to send a clear message. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:23 | |
I'm not in the habit of playing martyr. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
No, but you do have a knack of annoying your neighbours. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:27 | |
Although in this instance, I'm going to rule out Mr Bork. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
-He's the worst of the lot round here. -Lately, maybe. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:33 | |
But this is his first Christmas in the UK, | 0:18:33 | 0:18:35 | |
and as provoked as he may have been, | 0:18:35 | 0:18:37 | |
in my opinion he does not have a long-standing grudge. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:41 | |
Oh, right, that's your opinion, is it? | 0:18:41 | 0:18:43 | |
What do you think? | 0:18:43 | 0:18:45 | |
They're great. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:46 | |
I think we should include a question about relocation, where appropriate. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:50 | |
Can we help? That sort of thing. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:52 | |
Yeah, fine. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:53 | |
And maybe include a left side of the brain question, | 0:18:53 | 0:18:56 | |
just to see how they think outside the box? | 0:18:56 | 0:18:58 | |
That's a Howard trick. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:00 | |
Yeah. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:02 | |
And I will write and send letters to the unsuccessful candidates. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:07 | |
Now, who's going to break the news to Mrs Tembe? | 0:19:07 | 0:19:10 | |
I'll do it. No point in keeping her waiting. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:14 | |
DOORBELL RINGS | 0:19:14 | 0:19:16 | |
Oh, that's just great! Come to complete my humiliation? | 0:19:17 | 0:19:21 | |
I have a peace offering. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:23 | |
Well, you know where you can stick... | 0:19:23 | 0:19:25 | |
Mr Price, what have we just been saying?! | 0:19:25 | 0:19:28 | |
It's all right, Officer. This is how Mr Price and I talk. | 0:19:28 | 0:19:31 | |
Please take it. It's stollen. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
Stollen? | 0:19:34 | 0:19:35 | |
A cake. My mother sent me three. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:37 | |
She's trying to bribe me home. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:39 | |
No, I know what it is. In actual fact, I've even tried to make some, | 0:19:39 | 0:19:42 | |
although I couldn't quite get it right. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:43 | |
My mother would tell you the secret is in the temperature of the milk. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:47 | |
Interesting. Although I couldn't get the yeast to behave either. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:50 | |
Even then, you'd never get it to taste like this. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:52 | |
Mutti makes the best stollen ever. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:54 | |
Well, she would, wouldn't she, she's in Germany, | 0:19:54 | 0:19:57 | |
where all the Christmas comes from. | 0:19:57 | 0:19:58 | |
Mr Price, you have someone here who is making a very generous gesture. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |
My advice would be to take kindness where you can find it. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:04 | |
An elf should never be grumpy. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
Why does everything have to turn out wrong? | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
What can be wrong with accepting cake? | 0:20:09 | 0:20:13 | |
Maybe it's time to bury the hatchet, don't you think? | 0:20:13 | 0:20:15 | |
You'll always wonder what you missed. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:17 | |
Some tea, real stollen. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:19 | |
Tea as well! | 0:20:20 | 0:20:22 | |
Liberty Hall. S'pose I'd better put the kettle on. | 0:20:22 | 0:20:25 | |
We need to allow for more flexibility on the work rota | 0:20:30 | 0:20:34 | |
where Miss Pitman is concerned. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:36 | |
I am counting on you, | 0:20:36 | 0:20:39 | |
preferably when you are back to being Mrs Hollins. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:43 | |
It's got a bit more staying power than the usual lippy and mascara. | 0:20:43 | 0:20:47 | |
Well, Mr Bowie needs to be gone by the beginning of afternoon surgery. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:52 | |
Mrs Tembe? | 0:20:52 | 0:20:54 | |
Dr Clay, I have finished speaking to Mrs Hollins/Mr Bowie. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:58 | |
Sorry, I won't keep you a sec. I just wanted to let you know | 0:20:58 | 0:21:00 | |
that you've been successful, you're going | 0:21:00 | 0:21:02 | |
to be one of the applicants for the practice manager's job. | 0:21:02 | 0:21:05 | |
-Oh. -Oh! Congratulations! | 0:21:05 | 0:21:09 | |
Oh, Miss Pitman! | 0:21:09 | 0:21:11 | |
How many people are you seeing? | 0:21:11 | 0:21:13 | |
I do not think that is an appropriate question to ask. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:15 | |
Three. The interviews are next Friday. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:17 | |
I will let you know an exact time soon, OK? | 0:21:17 | 0:21:20 | |
Oh! I'm made up for you. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:23 | |
Thank you. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:24 | |
Now when you boss me around, it'll be legitimate. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:26 | |
I have not got the job yet. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:29 | |
No, I think the hard work is still ahead of me. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:34 | |
Now, to me, this is what Christmas tastes like. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:44 | |
It is really good. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
In the morning, toasted, lots of butter. Perfect. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:55 | |
What do you think? | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
It's all right. | 0:21:58 | 0:22:00 | |
As Santa's helper, | 0:22:00 | 0:22:01 | |
you should live on an exclusive diet of stollen and gingerbread. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:04 | |
Maybe I'll leave some on everyone's doorstep around here, | 0:22:04 | 0:22:07 | |
make them feel more festive. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:08 | |
I wouldn't bother. They're proper killjoys. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
They really object to what you do? | 0:22:11 | 0:22:14 | |
We should do something about that. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
Mr Bork. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:18 | |
I don't have an injunction against me. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:21 | |
We have a saying - good fences make for good neighbours. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:24 | |
It also keeps the police happy. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:26 | |
Well, one of our good neighbours arranged for my garden | 0:22:26 | 0:22:28 | |
to be watered this morning. | 0:22:28 | 0:22:30 | |
And that is wrong, but an eye for an eye leaves us all blind. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:33 | |
Look, I apologise for thinking it was you. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:39 | |
And while I appreciate your idea, I'm not going to encourage you | 0:22:40 | 0:22:44 | |
in sticking it to our neighbours, not in present company, anyway. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:49 | |
More stollen, Sergeant? | 0:22:51 | 0:22:54 | |
Good to see a prompt response from the police over this sorry business. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:03 | |
What is that business exactly, Mr...? | 0:23:03 | 0:23:06 | |
Evans. Of the Larches. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:08 | |
You might've heard of me. I run the local neighbourhood watch. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:11 | |
His heart's in the right place, but it lowers the tone. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:19 | |
Actually, Mr Price is honouring the terms of his abatement notice. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:23 | |
As for what happened this morning, that's hardly his fault, is it? | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
It's not an isolated case and we all have to deal with the fallout, | 0:23:26 | 0:23:29 | |
so to speak. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:30 | |
Still, not to worry - mustn't burden you with trivialities. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:35 | |
Well, that is sort of our job, sir. | 0:23:35 | 0:23:38 | |
-Are you seeing what I'm seeing? -Hm. | 0:23:44 | 0:23:45 | |
Hold that, will you? | 0:23:45 | 0:23:47 | |
Mr Evans, can I have a word, please? | 0:23:47 | 0:23:50 | |
Oh. All set? | 0:23:50 | 0:23:52 | |
Yeah. She's coming over to mine. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:54 | |
OK, well, I hope it's not too painful. Remember, have boundaries from the get-go, Haskey, all right? | 0:23:54 | 0:23:58 | |
Yeah, this is my personal body space - | 0:23:58 | 0:24:00 | |
that is her personal body space. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:02 | |
I'm not going to cross the streams. I know what I'm doing. | 0:24:02 | 0:24:05 | |
Good luck. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:06 | |
I know what I'm doing. | 0:24:08 | 0:24:10 | |
Actually, could we, erm... Could we talk? | 0:24:15 | 0:24:20 | |
Yeah, what's up? | 0:24:20 | 0:24:21 | |
There's no easy way for me to say this, so I'm just going to say it. | 0:24:23 | 0:24:27 | |
I don't think there's a future for me and you. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:32 | |
Oh, right. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:37 | |
Yeah. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:40 | |
Yeah, well me, neither. | 0:24:40 | 0:24:43 | |
It's just a bit of fun, isn't it? | 0:24:43 | 0:24:45 | |
Really? | 0:24:46 | 0:24:48 | |
Yeah. Yeah, so instead of yakking on about it, let's have some more. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:54 | |
Come on, you get the Balti in, and... | 0:24:55 | 0:24:59 | |
..da-da-da-dah! | 0:25:01 | 0:25:03 | |
We'll plug these in before you take them, make sure there's no duds. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:08 | |
This lot's going to cover the entire front of your house. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:11 | |
If I leave you a door key, you can switch them on after I go home for Christmas. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:15 | |
You're on. So, do you decorate your houses in Germany? | 0:25:15 | 0:25:19 | |
Some do. We have a more traditional time in my family. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:23 | |
What does that involve? | 0:25:23 | 0:25:24 | |
Lots of food where my mother is in charge. | 0:25:24 | 0:25:27 | |
A roast goose, venison, salmon. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:29 | |
Stollen? | 0:25:29 | 0:25:30 | |
Rooms filled with it. | 0:25:30 | 0:25:32 | |
Maybe some skiing with my brothers, if the weather allows. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:34 | |
That sounds like a merry time. | 0:25:34 | 0:25:35 | |
Eine frhliche Weihnacht. Exactly. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:38 | |
I guess I'll just be staying with my cousins in Wolverhampton. | 0:25:38 | 0:25:41 | |
Nothing fancy but it'll be nice. | 0:25:41 | 0:25:44 | |
Nice. OK. Maybe next year, you come to Germany. | 0:25:44 | 0:25:48 | |
Sorry? | 0:25:48 | 0:25:49 | |
My mother keeps an open house. Friends, family, neighbours - | 0:25:49 | 0:25:52 | |
everyone is welcome. Even elves. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:54 | |
-Well, I... -Come and see how Christmas is really done. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:57 | |
Not so much bah humbug from your neighbours. | 0:25:57 | 0:25:59 | |
Well, maybe I will. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:01 | |
-Grenade! -Die, zombie! Come on! | 0:26:07 | 0:26:10 | |
-Come on. -Watch the right flank. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:12 | |
-Yeah, I'm watching. -Ah, they're coming through the ceiling! | 0:26:12 | 0:26:15 | |
Through the ceiling. | 0:26:15 | 0:26:17 | |
Oh! | 0:26:17 | 0:26:18 | |
That was good. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:21 | |
Told you. Only next time you're going to be the trapped vigilante. | 0:26:21 | 0:26:24 | |
OK, another round. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:26 | |
Er...I'm up for a different activity, now. | 0:26:26 | 0:26:29 | |
