-Water heals.

-That's what you said, isn't it?

-It washes us clean

-from all our sins and our iniquity.

-I can feel it...

-..burning and purifying my soul.

-Mind you,

-that could be the chlorine.

-It's something that's

-been there for years, since birth.

-Surgery is usually required

-to stop the bleeding.

-A craniotomy.

-SHE PANTS

-"They were both naked...

-and felt no shame."

-Hello! I almost didn't recognize you

-without your collar.

-Mabli. How are

-the wedding arrangements going?

-I've a lot of work to do

-if I want to fit into that dress.

-If you want some help choosing hymns

-or whatever, let me know.

-Are hymns essential?

-Sorry?

-Sorry?

-

-I had something more modern in mind.

-Like what?

-Like what?

-

-A Miss Saigon medley.

-Well, I'm very open to new ideas.

-We'll discuss it on Sunday.

-Sunday?

-In church.

-I'm reading your marriage banns.

-Oh, the banns!

-Guto normally plays golf

-on a Sunday...

-..but...

-Yes, of course.

-See you there.

-MOBILE RINGS

-Hello?

-Yes, speaking.

-Oh, no...

-..I haven't had time

-to make an appointment yet.

-Today?

-I've a lot of things to do today.

-Hello?

-Hello, I'm losing the signal. Hello?

-You're not meant to enter

-through the front door.

-Why?

-They don't want to be reminded

-of these things.

-What things?

-What things?

-

-Who's on the way out.

-I'm here to see my father, Elfed.

-Elfed Thomas.

-He moved in last week.

-Right, of course. Elfed Thomas.

-Sorry, I saw the... you know,

-and I thought...

-It's a collar, not a scythe.

-Yes.

-The lesson's over, children.

-You have five minutes to play

-before getting dressed.

-We'll do it now.

-PLEASURABLE GROANING

-GROANING CONTINUES

-Dad?

-Myfanwy. What a surprise.

-Welcome to Eden Hills.

-Carry on, Oksana.

-It's an honour

-to baptize you, my sister.

-In the name

-of the Father, the Son...

-..and the Holy Spirit.

-Whoever believes and is baptized...

-..will be saved.

-Oksana here is from Estonia.

-She's learning to speak Welsh.

-A little bit, Elfed.

-A little bit.

-What do you think of the place then?

-Why didn't you come to live with us?

-As long as I can still

-wipe my own backside...

-..I'd rather do it in a

-five-star toilet, thanks very much.

-Dad!

-When you reach my age, you don't

-care a damn who sees you naked.

-Well, I care. Put that on.

-OK, Elfed. I'm going now.

-Hello, Myfanwy.

-Your father, he a very funny man.

-He has his moments.

-He tell me you are vicar.

-It's very funny also.

-SHE GIGGLES

-Yes, it's hilarious.

-The council

-tried to hide the fact...

-..that there's

-an ancient monastery on this site...

-..in order to get

-planning permission.

-Where did you get all this stuff?

-Where did you get all this stuff?

-

-I work part-time for the council.

-I have access to everything.

-One map comes from the '60s.

-I love the smell of old things.

-Are you trying to tell me

-that Owain Glyndwr...

-..is under that?

-Why aren't there any photos of Mam?

-Myf, I've lived without your mother

-for a long while.

-Nine years. I'm a single man now.

-You're not single, you're a widower.

-Your mother would've wanted me

-to get on with my life.

-She would've given us all

-a kick up the backside.

-They always said...

-..that Mam didn't suffer.

-But how do they know?

-Your mother...

-..didn't know

-she was going to leave us.

-I can tell you that for a fact.

-Why are you bringing it up now?

-No reason.

-You know, Myfanwy,

-you need to relax.

-Chill out a bit more.

-Don't look back all the time.

-After

-the Battle of Brecknockshire...

-..he could've easily come back here.

-Right underneath the blue cheese?

-I suppose anything's possible.

-I suppose anything's possible.

-

-He's right beneath us.

-I know he is.

-Where were we, sweetheart? Er...

-Blue cheese for the broccoli soup.

-Abergavenny cheese

-to stuff the chicken.

-Manchego for the aubergines and

-buffalo mozzarella for the lasagne.

-Do we need anything else?

-Caerphilly, darling.

-MOBILE RINGS

-Mrs Harries.

-You must be phoning

-to see if I've received your email.

-Yes, the flower roster's

-in front of me. I emailed you back.

-So you can't receive emails,

-but you can send them. I see.

-Alright then. OK, bye now.

-Ta-ra.

-If I hadn't answered the phone,

-she'd have turned up...

-..to check if I'd received

-the phone message about the email.

-Can't you give these people

-better IT skills?

-Are you talking to yourself again?

-Or were you talking to the boss?

-A bit of both perhaps.

-Who's died this time?

-No-one's died in three days.

-A bad time for you then?

-A bad time for you then?

-

-As silent as the grave.

-I came to check how you're doing.

-Don't lie.

-Do you have the rest of Mrs

-Barratt Wyatt's orders of service?

-The family want them back.

-The family want them back.

-

-Do you need them now?

-No. Let me know when you find them.

-Right then.

-You still haven't

-answered my question.

-Which question?

-Which question?

-

-How are you?

-Do you know what, Eurig?

-No-one ever asks me that.

-I'm worried about you.

-Have you told Terwyn?

-Have you told Terwyn?

-

-No, OK?

-Look after yourself, Myf.

-It's a symptom.

-Just a symptom.

-SHE SIGHS HEAVILY

-What am I doing? What if I die

-faffing over the parish newspaper?

-I can see the headline now. Vicar

-Dies Completing Thankless Task.

-Come on, give me a break.

-You gave Hezekiah another 15 years.

-Then again, he was a man.

-Vicar? Vicar?

-This is where you're hiding. A bunch

-of hippies are squatting out there.

-It's an art class, Mr Jarman.

-I told them

-they could use the church hall.

-I don't remember discussing it.

-I'm doing my friend, Llinor Allen,

-a favour, if you must know.

-Oh. Are they paying?

-Oh. Are they paying?

-

-20 an hour.

-It's not right. They can't do

-such a thing on church grounds.

-Llinor's a prize-winning artist.

-I don't care if she's won the

-lottery. One of them's half-naked.

-Goodness me,

-TJ would be turning in his grave.

-A letter's arrived from the college.

-Have you got a place?

-Have you got a place?

-

-I don't know. I couldn't open it.

-Will you?

-People go on to do amazing things

-after attending that college.

-I feel sick. Just tell me.

-Do you want

-the good news or the bad news?

-Oh, my God. So there's bad news.

-Oh, my God. So there's bad news.

-

-You didn't get the scholarship.

-But did I get a place?

-Yes.

-Amazing!

-Totally amazing!

-Will there be

-a cot in your room for the baby?

-You're a real killjoy.

-Think it through.

-I'm going to tell the headmaster.

-Half-naked indeed. He should've

-hung around another half a minute.

-You said

-it was an art class on nature.

-That's what it is. Nature.

-Natural things.

-Nature has certainly been

-very kind to that creature.

-It's just a body, Myf.

-Haven't you stripped off

-just to feel alive?

-No.

-No.

-

-Haven't you ever skinny-dipped?

-You haven't lived.

-Right. I've a sermon to write.

-No doubt Adam will

-get a mention on Sunday.

-What was so special

-about TJ then, God?

-TJ? If I were called MT

-instead of Myfanwy Teleri...

-..they might take me more seriously.

-MT. Good morning, MT.

-Maybe not.

-It'd remind them too much of PMT.

-You've no control of what people say

-about you after you've departed...

-..this earth.

-I didn't have much time...

-..for that Mr Jarman.

-But, well, he's a servant of God...

-..and I had to make time for him...

-..because that's

-what we vicars do, isn't it?

-We give our time to people.

-We give them everything we have.

-Be careful not to give too much.

-Mind you...

-..it's nice to be remembered.

-Isn't it?

-Sorry, vicar. Are you alright?

-It's alright for me

-to pop in like this, isn't it?

-Yes, of course. Take a pew.

-I had a root canal this morning,

-but she didn't turn up.

-That's fine by me... she has to pay

-the 25, all the same...

-..for the inconvenience.

-Is Guto with you?

-No, he's working.

-He's dealing with a big case.

-I just wanted a scout around,

-if that's OK.

-Yes, of course.

-The wedding planner says

-that spatial awareness is important.

-TEXT ALERT

-I've two fillings to do.

-I'd better go.

-Bring Guto with you next time.

-I will. Thanks, vicar.

-Terwyn!

-Terwyn?

-What was it Llinor said?

-That you had to

-strip off to feel alive?

-You wouldn't mind, would you?

-They were all half-naked

-in the Garden Of Eden.

-POP MUSIC

-Why do we dress the dead

-in their best clothes, God?

-Everyone's born naked.

-Why are we so afraid of

-our own bodies, of what you gave us?

-What do you think, God? I know

-you're meant to be neutral, but hey.

-You've seen worse, haven't you?

-You wouldn't kick me out of...

-Come through. This way.

-Would you like to stay for lunch?

-Would you like to stay for lunch?

-

-Will Mrs Daniels be home for lunch?

-Don't let Myfanwy

-hear you call her Mrs Daniels.

-The reverend hates being a Mrs!

-Coffee?

-I still can't believe it.

-They want me to go to

-the office to have a photo taken.

-Embarrassing!

-Oh, well, got to be done.

-My skin's shit these days.

-They call it the mask of pregnancy.

-I looked it up.

-Anyone'd think

-it's you who's having this baby.

-You could at least pretend

-you're happy for me.

-But how will you pay for it

-without the scholarship?

-I'll find a way.

-Will the father help you?

-Shut up, Gwen.

-Shut up, Gwen.

-

-But he should.

-It's my problem.

-You're 34 weeks now, Sophie.

-My God, have you

-been counting the weeks? Freak.

-Stop putting

-a dampener on everything.

-You must know that the bump might

-have a growth spurt towards the end.

-I'm sure there are crackers

-here somewhere.

-Oh, crikey! Who put those there?

-Shall I clear it up?

-Watch your fingers.

-Watch your fingers.

-

-I'll get a brush.

-I'll get it.

-There's not much food here.

-Perhaps you're better off

-having lunch elsewhere.

-Look at the time. I've a

-departmental meeting in an hour.

-Sorry about this, Angharad.

-Thanks for everything.

-I'll see you soon. Ta-ta now.

-Bye now.

-What's all this cheese?

-Since when have you

-brought students home for lunch?

-She wanted to show me something.

-Did you buy anything else at all?

-I was in a rush.

-Myf, why were you starkers...

-..in the utility room?

-I'll have to go shopping now.

-There's lots you can cook

-with cheese. Just think creatively.

-PHONE RINGS

-Hello? Yes, speaking.

-Alright then. Hold on.

-I can't discuss it at the moment.

-Yes, I understand that.

-Can I phone you back?

-Great. Thanks for phoning. Bye now.

-Who was that?

-Someone from church.

-Someone from church.

-

-See? You're always on call too.

-Don't you dare compare.

-You've three months off a year.

-You've all the time in the world

-to do things.

-You can't even shop for your family.

-Where are you going?

-Where are you going?

-

-Shopping!

-Dr Price, please.

-Myfanwy Elfed.

-What do you mean, he's

-not available? He just phoned me.

-Fine.

-Two o'clock. Thanks very much.

-Excuse me.

-Sorry.

-The best way of explaining it to you

-is by using this.

-Your brain.

-Have you seen one of these before?

-Surgery is usually required

-to stop the bleeding.

-Myfanwy?

-Myfanwy?

-Have you seen one of these before?

-Yes.

-Right, well, here's the weakness.

-This is where the arteries and veins

-have formed a small knot.

-It's similar to a knot

-you sometimes get in your hair.

-Like hair,

-if you can't untangle the knot...

-..then you have to cut it off.

-And then the knot's gone forever.

-That's the hope, yes.

-Regarding the knot, Dr Price...

-..can it cause you to see things

-or to view things differently?

-Who knows what these little neurons

-can do to us when they misbehave?

-But the thing is...

-..it's possible, in theory, that

-I can live a normal life with this.

-Right until the very end.

-Years, perhaps.

-Lots of things

-are possible in theory.

-You, of all people,

-should know that.

-But if I had the surgery...

-..in theory,

-I could be dead next week.

-You might be asking me to throw away

-my chance of living longer?

-In theory, we could

-also give you back your life.

-Crikey, Eurig!

-What were you doing?

-You're in a world of your own.

-Are you OK?

-Mrs Barrett Wyatt.

-Leave those for now.

-I need help to move Mrs Thomas

-Blaen Derw out of the car.

-Is Mrs Thomas dead?

-No, she's just having a nap

-in the back.

-Of course she's dead. Come on.

-Feelings are more than neurons,

-aren't they?

-Please say they are, God.

-What if you're a neuron?

-And no more than that?

-What if Dr Price

-were to cut you out?

-I've never been at ease

-in places like this.

-You'll come to no harm.

-Did they say what caused it?

-Don't they tell you?

-Why would they?

-They only call us when

-there's nothing more they can do.

-She looks content.

-She spent ten years

-in a wheelchair, poor dab.

-She couldn't

-do anything for herself.

-That could happen to me

-after the surgery, couldn't it?

-It won't.

-You don't know that.

-You don't know that.

-

-Well, it if does, that'd be OK.

-You'd still be here.

-I'd wheel you around.

-I'd wheel you around.

-

-Would you now?

-Of course, because...

-..well, it'd still be you.

-MOBILE RINGS

-Cerian.

-It's odd

-you should phone now because...

-Of course I'll call in.

-Is something wrong?

-Oh, right. OK.

-See you later.

-What did the missus want again?

-What do they want the vicar

-to talk about this time?

-Gwern.

-They were only playing.

-This is about

-his behaviour, Myfanwy.

-This could look like an attempt

-to condition a child.

-Martha needs saving.

-Gwern!

-Things could've got out of hand.

-Children love playing in water...

-dunking and splashing.

-We don't want her to go to hell.

-We'll have to exclude Gwern from

-swimming lessons for the time being.

-Who was Mrs Barratt Wyatt?

-Was she old?

-The woman at the bank with the big

-hair. She always gave you sweets.

-Why are there

-so many orders of service left?

-They expected more mourners.

-45 people didn't turn up.

-Did they forget

-or did they just not care?

-Mam? When was I christened?

-You were, um... you were very small.

-I don't remember.

-Are there any photographs?

-Are there any photographs?

-

-Probably, in the attic.

-I want to show them to Martha.

-Don't bring it up tonight.

-I just want to

-eat my cheese in peace.

-Is that our dinner?

-A simple medieval feast.

-But this isn't the Middle Ages.

-Try to tell your father that.

-Where have you been?

-With Sophie. We had dinner in town.

-How can you afford to eat out?

-Sophie's had a place

-at Atlantic College.

-Fair play to her. You'll miss her.

-Dad, where are

-my christening photographs?

-Have you asked Mam?

-We'll look for them after dinner.

-I'll save it for the mice at school.

-I'll save it for the mice at school.

-

-It's a myth that mice like cheese.

-You're better off giving them fruit.

-Did we christen him?

-We never got around to doing it,

-did we?

-You know, after...

-You know, after...

-

-But you're a vicar.

-There we go, everything's my fault.

-Where are you going?

-Listen, I'm sorry.

-I'll doctor a photograph.

-Photoshop or something.

-It's best to be straight with him.

-It's best to be straight with him.

-

-He won't know.

-I'm going out.

-I'll sort something out

-when I get back, like I always do.

-Myf! Good timing.

-I'll never finish

-this takeaway by myself.

-Do you have a bottle open too?

-Pope? Balcony?

-I'll be down now.

-You don't think

-Terwyn's having an affair, do you?

-He wouldn't know what an affair was

-if one landed in his lap.

-There are worse things

-than a faithful husband.

-I know.

-No more for me,

-in case I get a call.

-More for me then.

-You're good, vicar.

-Sometimes it seems so unfair...

-..that we only have one life.

-Says she,

-who believes in eternal life.

-So who'd be in your heaven...

-..apart from that nude guy

-in your art class today?

-I don't have time

-for things like that.

-There was someone once.

-Who?

-Who?

-

-A long time ago.

-It doesn't matter now.

-Sorry. It's none of my business.

-I'm jealous, that's all.

-A single life without children.

-I didn't get much of that.

-But your kids are gorgeous, so...

-It's swings and roundabouts,

-isn't it?

-Crikey, this wine's going straight

-through me. I'll be back now.

-You could swap her face for mine.

-And stick a large church on my head.

-Don't you think?

-Perhaps the place

-will kill me before this.

-Llinor?!

-Llinor?

-Llinor Allen.

-I know vicars are meant to be boring

-but I'm not that bad, am I?

-Thanks for dinner, Llin.

-Sleep tight.

-I'm glad you like it.

-I'm glad you like it.

-

-It's definitely unusual.

-I wanted to give you a gift to thank

-you for all your encouragement.

-Right then, Mrs Barratt Wyatt...

-..time to go home.

-Hiya. How are you, puss?

-Gwenallt?

-Gwenallt?

-Gwenallt!

-Gwenallt!

-Hey, Myf! Wahey!

-Myf!

-Oh, he's a faithful cat.

-He knows who really loves him.

-You won't take him away from me,

-will you, Myfanwy?

-Don't bring that tom

-anywhere near me. I'm allergic.

-What on earth...?

-I've told him and told him

-but he just can't help himself.

-It's in his blood!

-It's like

-Sodom and Gomorrah here, reverend.

-You're sinners,

-the whole lot of you.

-Where's Eurig? Eurig?

-Stop the bus, I want to get off!

-Are you sure, Myfanwy?

-Your journey will be

-over soon enough, remember.

-Enjoy yourself!

-Ooh! Sorry.

-I didn't see her.

-Who?

-The cat, she ran out...

-..right in front of me.

-What just happened to us,

-dear Gwenallt?

-DOORBELL

-Does anyone

-intend answering the door?

-If someone's selling something,

-look out.

-Myf. What's wrong? What's happened?

-Don't cry any more, Liwsi.

-Gwenallt's going to a better world.

-Like Uncle Tom?

-Uncle Tom hated cats.

-He won't want Gwenallt

-with him, Mam.

-Perhaps animals and people

-don't go to exactly the same place.

-No, that's right.

-There are different departments.

-Can you give him a quick blessing?

-No need for the works.

-"Blessed are the meek

-for they will inherit the earth."

-Ta-ta, Gwenallt.

-Come on, it's starting to get cold.

-Let's go inside.

-Give it here.

-I feel responsible somehow.

-There's something

-about burying a pet, isn't there?

-They never see death coming.

-Poor dabs.

-Better late than never,

-Mrs Barratt Wyatt.

-She's sleeping at last.

-I bet she'll be up and down

-all night.

-A glass of wine, Myfanwy?

-No, I'm fine, thanks.

-Lucky you were passing.

-Not everyone brings

-a cat in from the road nowadays.

-He was as deaf as a post.

-He couldn't hear a train,

-let alone a bus.

-I was going to phone you

-about today.

-Forget it.

-I know Gwern can be a handful.

-He's a very sweet child, but I hope

-you understand that I have to...

-Mami!

-Mami!

-When are you going into hospital?

-I'm still waiting to hear.

-Is it getting worse?

-Why do you ask?

-I don't know.

-You're...

-You're behaving differently.

-I'm fine.

-Listen, I'd better go.

-We don't want to keep you.

-We know how busy vicars can be

-these days, don't we, sweetheart?

-What's that?

-Angharad picked it up

-on a trip to China last year.

-Solar-powered.

-What does it do?

-What does it do?

-

-We'll see when the sun rises.

-Are you going to tell me

-where you've been?

-With Eurig and Cerian.

-We're looking into excavating

-the site of the supermarket.

-But it's open 24 hours.

-So much for positive thinking.

-They won't close for you

-to look for some bones.

-They're not just any bones.

-Don't you think you should

-focus on the present, Terwyn?

-The present doesn't exist.

-What?

-What?

-

-It only existed when I said that.

-It doesn't exist now.

-There we go, it's gone!

-The present is endless, Terwyn.

-Believe you me.

-Right.

-I'm going up.

-Are you going to be long?

-I'm just finishing the parish paper.

-Alright, sweetie?

-Bloody hell, Mam.

-You freaked me out.

-Why are you up so late?

-Parish paper.

-I'm writing the deaths column.

-Morbid.

-Morbid.

-

-And the births too.

-One lot leaves

-and another lot arrives.

-That's life.

-Why do you bother for peanuts?

-Why do you bother for peanuts?

-

-Well, someone has to.

-Don't you want to do something

-you really enjoy doing?

-Just for yourself?

-Nobody ever does things

-for free these days.

-Goodnight, Mam.

-Goodnight, Mam.

-

-Goodnight, sweetie.

-Have I forgotten

-how to enjoy life, God?

-Everything was so simple

-in the Garden Of Eden.

-They had nothing. Nothing at all.

-Only instinct.

-You decided that whatever happened

-to them from that point on...

-..was their choice.

-Isn't that right?

-It was up to them

-if they listened or not.

-Will you let me decide, please?

-I don't want anyone else

-to decide for me.

-If I live,

-then let me live life to the full...

-..until the end.

-In my own way.

-Happy birthday, sweetie.

-Oh, Mam, please.

-Pancakes are on, Gwens.

-They're our fingerprints,

-so we're always with you.

-The staples have to touch the right

-part of the machine and it'll work.

-Who's she?

-Who's she?

-

-Lynwen Horrocks.

-She was knocked down by a lorry.

-Someone could find my body in years

-to come and think I'd been murdered.

-I'm going to London for the birth.

-I'm going to London for the birth.

-

-So will you just give it away?

-My mother did that to me.

-My mother did that to me.

-Here it is, God, in black and white.

-Here it is, God, in black and white.

-The date for slicing my head open.

-in green pastures."
