0:00:28 > 0:00:30DOOR OPENS
0:00:30 > 0:00:31Elaine?
0:00:31 > 0:00:34Darling? Where you hiding?
0:00:35 > 0:00:37You upstairs?
0:00:37 > 0:00:39Yes. In the bedroom.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Hello, stranger.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47I thought you weren't back until tomorrow night?
0:00:47 > 0:00:49I couldn't bear to be away from you a moment longer.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Also, my gammy toe's flared up again.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57Put a kibosh on my game.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02So I didn't fancy hanging around for the prize-giving.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04I told you to get it checked.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07Yeah, well, you know me, last of the stoics.
0:01:07 > 0:01:09Have fun, did you?
0:01:09 > 0:01:13Six weeks, it's too long.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15I missed the comforts of home.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17And you.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21You still haven't noticed, have you?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Noticed what?
0:01:27 > 0:01:30Something different about me.
0:01:32 > 0:01:33What the hell have you done?
0:01:38 > 0:01:40I like that the plants are overgrown. Go on, after you.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42SHE CHUCKLES
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Right, there's some work stuff I really need to catch up on.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Help yourself to a tea, biscuits, Havana cigars.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Have you employed a cleaner?
0:01:50 > 0:01:52No, Mother, this is all me.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54Here, let me put this up in your bedroom.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56I'd be happier at home, you know.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58I've still got a lot to organise for my cruise.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00Oh, I thought you'd done all your holiday shopping.
0:02:00 > 0:02:04- Oh, mostly.- You remember where everything is, yeah?
0:02:04 > 0:02:05Ah-hm.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Kitchen is that way.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09I know.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13HE SIGHS
0:02:15 > 0:02:17You managed to live with it for 60 years,
0:02:17 > 0:02:19why go under the knife now?
0:02:19 > 0:02:22I wish I'd done it years ago.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24If I hadn't listened to you, then I probably would have.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26It's utterly selfish of you.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28How is it selfish?
0:02:28 > 0:02:32I spend more time looking at your nose than you do.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35And I happen to prefer the old one!
0:02:36 > 0:02:39When was I ever unkind about it?
0:02:39 > 0:02:43My sense of worth doesn't entirely depend on your approval!
0:02:45 > 0:02:46SHE SIGHS
0:02:46 > 0:02:50Ever since I was a child, it chipped away at my self-esteem.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53I already feel more confident!
0:02:53 > 0:02:57Why can't you just be happy for me?!
0:02:59 > 0:03:01I dread to think what it cost.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04No more than your wretched golf tour!
0:03:04 > 0:03:05SHE SIGHS
0:03:07 > 0:03:09There's a ready meal in the fridge.
0:03:09 > 0:03:10Where you going?
0:03:10 > 0:03:14Out to lunch...with a friend.
0:03:19 > 0:03:20I always thought cosmetic surgery
0:03:20 > 0:03:23was the province of faded movie stars.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Now everyone is being nipped and tucked and botoxed and...
0:03:30 > 0:03:32I think there's something to be said
0:03:32 > 0:03:34for growing old gracefully, don't you?
0:03:34 > 0:03:37I wouldn't know...yet.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Elaine always looked after her appearance,
0:03:40 > 0:03:43but I would never say that she was vain.
0:03:44 > 0:03:49It's so unseemly for a woman her age to get a nose job.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Who's she trying to impress?
0:03:51 > 0:03:54- What can I do you for?- Sorry?
0:03:54 > 0:03:58You didn't come here to discuss your wife's nose job, did you?
0:03:58 > 0:04:02No. No. Sorry. Huh! Er...I've got a gammy toe.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04I covered it in antiseptic cream,
0:04:04 > 0:04:06but it hasn't made a jot of difference.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10OK. Well, pop up on the couch and I'll take a look.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Ooh!
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Played havoc with my handicap.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Handicap?
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Golf.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Feast your eyes.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26Ooh! That's a pretty nasty infection.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29I'd say at the very least, you're going to need a course of antibiotics.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31I'll see if I can get you in with a doctor.
0:04:31 > 0:04:32- Who's your GP?- Granger.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36Er...he's not here at the moment, but Dr Carter is.
0:04:36 > 0:04:37Er...no, no need.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41I'm sure I've got antibiotics knocking about at home.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44They'll nip it in the bud.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Er...that's not a good idea. It's best to see a doctor.
0:04:46 > 0:04:51Yeah, well, I'll speak to Daniel. Probably at the 19th hole.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54- Ah, you're golfing buddies?- Yeah.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57I owe him a few... Oh!
0:04:58 > 0:05:01I owe him a few, um...pointers on his swing.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04OK. Well, you need to get this looked at ASAP.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Er...heard you.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09And, er...I'll speak to Daniel.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Yeah, he's not around at the moment.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13Yeah, well, I suppose I'll have to wait.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15It can't wait. You're a diabetic.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Thanks for reminding me.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19- Mr Bottrell, this is... - DOOR SHUTS
0:05:20 > 0:05:23He's less stressed than he used to be,
0:05:23 > 0:05:26but still same old Geoff.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29I can't imagine him as a man of leisure.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32I'm so used to him firing orders at everyone.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Oh, that hasn't changed.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Poor you.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38It suits you, by the way.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41The new nose.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43Oh!
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Thank you.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Did you think I hadn't noticed?
0:05:47 > 0:05:48Well, I-I wasn't sure.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50You look a million dollars.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55Look who's come to say hello. You...you remember Ayesha?
0:05:55 > 0:05:59Oh! Of course! How could I forget?
0:05:59 > 0:06:01It's good to see you again, Mrs Haskey.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03Oh, call me Eve, please.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06Alasdair didn't tell me you were joining us.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09It's a spur-of-the-moment thing. I need his advice about a patient.
0:06:09 > 0:06:13I expect you two have quite a few spur-of-the-moment things.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16It's OK, there's no need to be coy about it.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19You're an...unlikely couple,
0:06:19 > 0:06:22but, then, people used to say the same about Henry and I.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28Right. Er...I'm just going to put the kettle on...again.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34I was sorry to hear about your mother.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37To lose a parent at such a young age, it must be devastating.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Thanks. It was.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42It is.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44I hope you don't mind my mentioning it?
0:06:44 > 0:06:45Of course not. It was a massive shock.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48- It's...hard to accept.- Mm.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51It's a long process.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53I'm still grieving Henry.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55I don't suppose I'll ever stop.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07I think it's a sort of spiritual experience, as well, golf, isn't it?
0:07:07 > 0:07:09I think there's plenty of time for golf...
0:07:09 > 0:07:11- That's what I understand. - ..when I'm older.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14My goodness! Well, um...come in.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18Come in. Come in!
0:07:19 > 0:07:21Oh, God!
0:07:23 > 0:07:24SHE SIGHS
0:07:26 > 0:07:28It was so good to catch up with you.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- Let me take this for you.- Thank you.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Right. What do you make of her?
0:07:39 > 0:07:42She seems as sharp as a sharp thing.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44- Really?- Yeah.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46We spoke about my mum and work,
0:07:46 > 0:07:48and she seemed to remember everything I told her before,
0:07:48 > 0:07:49at your dad's memorial.
0:07:49 > 0:07:54She keeps forgetting where things are. Things like the kitchen.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Al, she's bound to be up and down after losing your dad.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Yeah, that's true.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00Do you think she's depressed?
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Maybe.- That can be mistaken for the early signs of dementia.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Yeah.
0:08:06 > 0:08:07Yeah, you're right.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11I'm just trying to medicalise things, aren't I? Typical doctor!
0:08:11 > 0:08:13It's fine. Thank you.
0:08:13 > 0:08:17I mean, in truth, we've never got along so well. Hm!
0:08:17 > 0:08:20Have you ever dealt with a Geoff Bottrell, a 60-year-old diabetic,
0:08:20 > 0:08:22one of Daniel's golfing buddies?
0:08:22 > 0:08:25No. He sounds like a patient to avoid to me.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27He's got a really infected toe. It's in need of some urgent care,
0:08:27 > 0:08:29but Daniel's the only one he'll see.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Right. Have you tried calling him?
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- Who, Daniel?- Yeah.
0:08:33 > 0:08:35No. I thought he was incommunicado.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Well, if it's about golf, then you might as well give it a try.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39Or, should I say, a swing?
0:08:41 > 0:08:45I don't believe you two have been talking about a patient all this time.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49I think you two lovebirds have got better things to do.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Ooh! House-hunting!
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Oh, no, no, no. I'm just looking.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Not sure what happened to the main paper.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01It's just here.
0:09:01 > 0:09:02Oh, yeah. Huh!
0:09:04 > 0:09:07- I love the property edition, don't you?- Er...yeah.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10They had a really interesting article last week
0:09:10 > 0:09:13about up-and-coming areas and schemes for first-time buyers.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15- Really?- Mm-hm.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20He's diabetic.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22I know. How's that working out?
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Oh, he's in complete denial.
0:09:24 > 0:09:25He eats and drinks as he did before
0:09:25 > 0:09:29and his idea of healthy exercise is to play a bit more golf.
0:09:29 > 0:09:30Well, I told him to see a doctor ASAP,
0:09:30 > 0:09:32but you're the only one he'll see.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34I have no idea how much longer I'm going to be tied up here.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Is there any way you can you get him back into the surgery?
0:09:37 > 0:09:39- I can try.- OK.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51You look dreadful.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55I'm jet-lagged. I didn't get a wink on the plane.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Is that why you didn't join us in the restaurant?
0:09:57 > 0:10:00I wasn't invited!
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Only because you were meant to be in Florida!
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Oh, how convenient!
0:10:05 > 0:10:08What else have you been up to in my absence?
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Aren't I entitled to have a social life?
0:10:11 > 0:10:12Not with him!
0:10:12 > 0:10:14We mainly talked about you!
0:10:14 > 0:10:17In fact, that was the whole basis for the meeting...
0:10:17 > 0:10:21First he steals my job, then my wife.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Oh! Don't be ridiculous!
0:10:23 > 0:10:27Now I understand why you had the nose job.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29He's quite the womaniser, you know.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32The most you'll be is another notch on his rickety bedpost.
0:10:32 > 0:10:37He feels bad because you left Hollington's under a cloud.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39What does he expect?!
0:10:40 > 0:10:42- He had me fired.- That's not true!
0:10:42 > 0:10:44It was just boardroom politics!
0:10:44 > 0:10:46- Oh!- The only reason I had lunch with him
0:10:46 > 0:10:50was because he wanted my advice. He's desperate to make amends!
0:10:50 > 0:10:52As for my nose, the only person who helped persuade me
0:10:52 > 0:10:55was your golfing crony, Daniel Granger!
0:10:56 > 0:10:59- What? - He recommended an excellent surgeon.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Did he now?
0:11:02 > 0:11:03PHONE RINGS
0:11:03 > 0:11:06Well, that's one backhander he'll live to regret.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11Hello? I'll get him for you now.
0:11:11 > 0:11:16It's the nurse at the Campus surgery. She says it's urgent.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19Hello.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24VEHICLE APPROACHES
0:11:29 > 0:11:32You've got to cover your stamp duty, then there's all the moving costs.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34I'd probably just hire a van. I don't have that much stuff.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37- I was talking about your solicitor's fee.- Right, yeah.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Have you been moonlighting as an estate agent?
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Because you seem to know an awful lot about all this.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47Don't tell anyone but, um... I'm thinking of moving.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50Really? But Heston's house is... Sorry, your house is lovely.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Yeah, and that's exactly why.
0:11:52 > 0:11:56It just doesn't feel like it's our place, you know? It feels like his.
0:11:56 > 0:12:00So...I think if we buy something together, we can both put our stamp on it.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03- Found anything?- No. I'm just doing all the groundwork.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Working on Heston, which could take a bit of time.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12- Is something wrong? - Look, why don't I speak to him now?
0:12:12 > 0:12:13He's in a foul mood. I thought we agreed...
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Look, someone has to break the deadlock.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18- No time like the present. - Elaine? Where are you?
0:12:20 > 0:12:24He needs to see a doctor. Can we do this another time?
0:12:26 > 0:12:27Please?
0:12:27 > 0:12:29No problem.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Geoff! How are you?
0:12:34 > 0:12:36What's going on?
0:12:37 > 0:12:39It's been too long.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Look, can we meet for a chat?
0:12:41 > 0:12:44Yeah...when hell freezes over.
0:12:49 > 0:12:50I'm sorry.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Um...before you go...
0:12:52 > 0:12:54SOUNDS HORN
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Are we going, then?
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Ooh, don't chuck that away. Sid was looking at it earlier.
0:13:04 > 0:13:05Sid was?
0:13:05 > 0:13:07Yeah.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11I didn't know he was buying a house.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15I think he was...just having a bit of a nosey, you know.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19Mm! Nice sandwich.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29It's not for me.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Go on, open it!
0:13:41 > 0:13:45What does he want me to do with this, hang myself?
0:13:46 > 0:13:49I suggested something golf-related.
0:13:51 > 0:13:56Well, you can tell him where to stick his guilty peace offering.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58You were always attracted to him, I could tell.
0:14:00 > 0:14:06Listen, if you think that you have a future together, that's fine.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09I'll get my lawyer to file for a divorce.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13How could you even think such a thing?
0:14:14 > 0:14:15Dr Granger's ready to see you now.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23- This is your room. I thought I was seeing Daniel?- You are.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Hi, Geoff.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32So, let's have a look at this gammy toe, shall we?
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Is this what the NHS has come to?
0:14:37 > 0:14:39I'm so sorry. It's was a real foot-in-the-mouth moment.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41It's fine. Look, you weren't to know.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Hi, Emma. Mm-hm!
0:14:46 > 0:14:50So...when were you thinking of telling me?
0:14:50 > 0:14:51Telling you what?
0:14:55 > 0:14:58Look, I haven't decided that I was going to move out yet
0:14:58 > 0:15:00and I haven't decided that I was going to stay put.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03I was just...weighing up my options, that's all.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06Right. Well, thanks for letting me know(!)
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Er...a little bit closer, please.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14I've got a bone to pick with you, Granger.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17Why did you do a sales job on my wife?
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Er...sorry, you're breaking up.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22You persuaded her to have a new nose.
0:15:22 > 0:15:27I've a good mind to have your membership revoked at the club.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30Sorry, slight technical hitch. Bear with me.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33Brave new world(!)
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Hello?
0:15:40 > 0:15:41That's...random.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Ah, OK. Where were we?
0:15:43 > 0:15:46Your missus was locking herself into a hotel wardrobe.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49Oh. Er...yeah, sorry about that.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51She's, er...she's just playing hide-and-seek.
0:15:51 > 0:15:52Oh, yeah, naturally(!)
0:15:52 > 0:15:55Yep. So let's have another look at this, er...toe.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02Argh! Nurse Lee, would you do me a favour and take Mr Bottrell's blood pressure?
0:16:02 > 0:16:04- Mm-hm.- Thank you.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09I thought you weren't playing? Where's Joe?
0:16:09 > 0:16:12He's in the bathroom. I think he's locked himself in.
0:16:12 > 0:16:13Oh! Not again!
0:16:16 > 0:16:18It's all right, Joe, Mummy's coming!
0:16:18 > 0:16:20150/93.
0:16:20 > 0:16:24OK. Er...look, Geoff, I think you need to get yourself to A&E straightaway.
0:16:24 > 0:16:25The toe is badly infected
0:16:25 > 0:16:28and there's a chance of gangrene.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Just turn the lock. You must've turned it to lock it.
0:16:30 > 0:16:31Can you turn it the other way?
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Just when I thought my day couldn't get any worse.
0:16:34 > 0:16:38Er...is there a friend or a family member who could take you to St Phil's?
0:16:54 > 0:16:56Can you call a taxi for Mr Bottrell, please?
0:16:56 > 0:16:57- It's going to St Phil's.- OK.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08I think your wife's gone.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10I've called you a taxi. It should be here shortly.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12Does this belong to you?
0:17:17 > 0:17:19We've been married for 31 years.
0:17:19 > 0:17:23Had our ups and downs. I'm not an easy man to live with.
0:17:23 > 0:17:28But I have never had reason to doubt her loyalty.
0:17:28 > 0:17:29Not until today.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34I didn't know you were still there.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36You breathe one word of this down the club
0:17:36 > 0:17:38and I really will have you barred.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41You can count on my discretion.
0:17:43 > 0:17:44Bye, Daniel.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53She must've been planning this for months.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56Nose job.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00She had the surgery coincide with my golf trip.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06- Maybe she wanted to surprise you. - No. This wasn't about me.
0:18:07 > 0:18:12I've always loved her face, with its imperfections.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Did you tell her that?
0:18:14 > 0:18:15Yeah, loads of times.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22Once or twice.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33Look, you didn't expect me to stay forever, did you?
0:18:33 > 0:18:35Of course not!
0:18:35 > 0:18:37I'm sorry, I was being silly...selfish.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40You deserve a place of your own.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42I could always help you find a replacement,
0:18:42 > 0:18:44if and when I do decide to move on.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47- Hm!- We could put an ad on, um...Letherbridge Roomers.
0:18:47 > 0:18:52What would it say? Um... Hospitable landlady seeks single, pet-free tenant,
0:18:52 > 0:18:54um...with superb references.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Applicants should be sociable, independent,
0:18:56 > 0:18:59gastronomically-gifted and scrupulously tidy.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Oh! Well, if it was that easy to find somebody, I'd marry them!
0:19:02 > 0:19:06Thanks, but, um...I don't want to let rooms to strangers.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09I only let rooms to people that I know and like.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Hm!
0:19:12 > 0:19:15You've changed a lot in the time I've known you.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17- Is that a compliment?- Of course!
0:19:17 > 0:19:21You're... Well, you're much more self-assured, confident.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23And you know when to keep your mouth shut.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Well, most of the time.
0:19:26 > 0:19:31- I'm going to miss you.- I'm not going anywhere, not for a while.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34Still, you've made me think about my own future.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37That house is so big. With just me on my own, well, I'll rattle around.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Maybe I should think about moving, too.
0:19:45 > 0:19:49He always buries his head in the sand, waits for a small problem
0:19:49 > 0:19:51to escalate into a full-blown crisis.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Well, look, he's not alone in that.
0:19:53 > 0:19:54Could just be a guy thing.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56No, it's a Geoff thing.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58I...I have put up with it long enough.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00Well, I hope not. He'd be lost without you.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02Is that a reason to stay together?
0:20:02 > 0:20:04I can think of worse.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06Thanks for your concern, Dr Granger,
0:20:06 > 0:20:09but I think marriage guidance is beyond even your remit.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12Well, I just wanted to bring you up to speed.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15And find a way into Geoff's good books?
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Let me guess - he threatened to expel you from the golf club?
0:20:18 > 0:20:20Er...I didn't take him seriously.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24PHONE RINGS I need to go. Daniel, thanks for your call.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26OK. You're welcome.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34Hello again.
0:20:37 > 0:20:38Not eloped, then?
0:20:39 > 0:20:41Have you seen the consultant?
0:20:41 > 0:20:45I'm due in theatre soon.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47They're going to amputate the toe.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49And if that doesn't work, the whole foot.
0:20:51 > 0:20:52I'm sorry.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Now you can say, "I told you so".
0:20:54 > 0:20:55That's not why I'm here.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58No? Why are you here?
0:20:58 > 0:21:02Daniel phoned. He thought you could use some moral support.
0:21:02 > 0:21:06Look at you. You only get more perfect with age.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09I, on the other hand, have run to seed.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13Let bits of me go...literally!
0:21:14 > 0:21:17That gammy toe isn't your finest feature.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20And my nose wasn't mine.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22No, I don't suppose it was.
0:21:22 > 0:21:23But that's why I liked it.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27Well, from the moment we met,
0:21:27 > 0:21:30I always knew that you were out of my league.
0:21:30 > 0:21:34But your nose was slightly crooked and a little bit big.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36It gave me hope.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38- Hope?- Yeah.
0:21:38 > 0:21:42If you were slightly less than perfect,
0:21:42 > 0:21:47then maybe you could overlook my infinite flaws.
0:21:48 > 0:21:52I am a long way from perfect.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54KNOCK AT DOOR
0:21:54 > 0:21:55Come in.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57How's the patient?
0:21:58 > 0:22:00You don't give up, do you?
0:22:00 > 0:22:04You might enjoy holding a grudge, but Marcus doesn't.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06He's gone out of his way to patch things up!
0:22:06 > 0:22:09Well, some friendships are beyond repair.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11They have to be written off.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Will you just hear him out?
0:22:14 > 0:22:16If not for his sake, then for mine?
0:22:16 > 0:22:18I'm a captive audience, aren't I?
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Would you like a coffee?
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Oh, yeah, thanks.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Don't make yourself too comfortable.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Just say what you've got to say.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Right. The, er...
0:22:32 > 0:22:34..the board aren't happy.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36Now, I understand why you left in a hurry,
0:22:36 > 0:22:38but it could've been a smoother transition.
0:22:38 > 0:22:42Now, one or two of the clients are...making noises.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44They've threatened to jump ship.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Well, frankly, it's...it's a mess.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50So in other words, you're not up to the job.
0:22:50 > 0:22:54Clients don't trust you, the directors are losing patience.
0:22:54 > 0:22:58You blamed me for the teething problems...
0:22:58 > 0:23:01- I...- And that excuse has worn thin.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03I never blamed you. It's just that I need...
0:23:04 > 0:23:07- ..I need your help. - Yeah, of course you do.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10- Look, I know that you don't owe me anything.- Ho!
0:23:10 > 0:23:15But I could arrange a generous consultant's fee off the record.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18That's where you go wrong, Marcus.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21You can't be trusted.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32I've worked up quite an appetite already.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34Are there any plans for dinner?
0:23:34 > 0:23:37Not really. I'm afraid the fridge is a bit depleted.
0:23:37 > 0:23:41We should stop at the supermarket on our way home.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45Or a butcher. They might have some Smalahove.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52Norwegian sheep head?! I...I thought you weren't interested?
0:23:52 > 0:23:54I'm coming around to it.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56It's pretty tricky to prepare.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59I'm a dab hand with a blowtorch.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01AL CHUCKLES
0:24:03 > 0:24:05What happened?
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Oh, he's not interested.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11- In what?- Patching things up.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14Oh! There's just a bit of trouble at work, that's all.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16I...I thought he might be able to help.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20That's what this was about.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24Nothing to do with Geoff's friendship.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27- Or mine.- Elaine, don't be like that.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31This is yours.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33Oh, thanks. Hm!
0:24:34 > 0:24:37How long do you think they'll keep him in?
0:24:37 > 0:24:39I'm not sure. A few days, probably.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41We should make the most of them.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46- You don't think...?- What?
0:24:47 > 0:24:49If I've given you the wrong impression...
0:24:49 > 0:24:50By fluttering your eyelashes
0:24:50 > 0:24:52and complaining about the state of your marriage?
0:24:52 > 0:24:54That's not fair. That's not what I meant!
0:24:54 > 0:24:59Look...you're wasted on Geoff.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02You deserve to have some fun!
0:25:02 > 0:25:03Especially now.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Now?
0:25:06 > 0:25:09That makes such a difference. It's worth every penny.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14Goodbye, Marcus.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17Good luck with your precious job.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Sweet-talk you, did he?
0:25:25 > 0:25:27He tried to.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32He's good at playing people.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34I wish I'd seen it sooner.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37It's my fault. If I'd been around, nothing would've happened.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Nothing did happen.
0:25:39 > 0:25:43I just enjoyed a bit of attention.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48I feel like a fool.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50You're nobody's fool.
0:25:52 > 0:25:53I'm your fool.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58I miss your old nose.
0:25:58 > 0:25:59SHE CHUCKLES
0:25:59 > 0:26:03I think I might get to like the new one...in time.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06Mm! That's very noble of you(!)
0:26:08 > 0:26:10Will you be here when I wake up?
0:26:10 > 0:26:12Of course.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15Where else would I be?
0:26:17 > 0:26:19So if we set off after work tomorrow,
0:26:19 > 0:26:21we should get back to yours about 8-ish.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24Oh, that'll be fine. It'll be good to see Henry again.
0:26:26 > 0:26:27Mother...
0:26:29 > 0:26:31Yes, I know.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33I spoke without thinking.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36- Old habits.- Right.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39It'll be good to be home again, anyway.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41Even if there isn't anyone waiting for me.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44We've had fun today, haven't we?
0:26:44 > 0:26:46- Yes, we have. - There's no rush for you to get back,
0:26:46 > 0:26:48so, why don't you stay for a couple more days?
0:26:48 > 0:26:50I mean, I've enjoyed having you.
0:26:50 > 0:26:54And you know what, Mum, I would really appreciate it.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Very well. If that's what you'd like.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10What can I get you, Captain? Tea? Coffee?
0:27:11 > 0:27:15Isn't it funny how, all of a sudden, you're OK with him watching telly all day(?)
0:27:15 > 0:27:18KNOCK AT DOOR That'll be Social Services.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20Why is a lion like a wolf?
0:27:20 > 0:27:21I don't know, why is a lion like a wolf?
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Mum, it's not a joke.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25Couple of weeks, you'll be out of here.
