00:58had time to wash it. It's a right mess. Yeah it is isn't it. Hey I'm surprised I thought you'd have
01:14packed him off to some posh prep school. Don't worry I'll be going private as soon as he hits 11.
01:19Can't have him mixing with the oiks from the comprehensive. Speaking of which have you heard
01:25from Frankie? No. Oh thank goodness for that. You're on to lose that. What would you know about it?
01:34She turns up on your doorstep for one night. You're stupid enough to take her in. Then she
01:38disappears again. Still good riddance to bad rubbish. If I were you I'd forget about her. Don't tell me
01:43how to live my life. Well someone's got to talk some sense into you. You're behaving like a lovesick
01:48kid. Jealous are we? At least I've got a personal life. One night by a fireside does not constitute
01:55a relationship. Even I managed a few months before I got divorced. How many divorces is it now?
02:02Or have you lost count? Let's face it the only long lasting relationship you've ever had is with
02:07your wallet. You think so? What's she doing here then? Hi. What brings you here? I'll come to wish
02:16Joe's of good luck and bring him this. That's what'll be kind of you. Oh thanks. So what do you think?
02:24You look very grown up. How about I come with you to school? Well there's no need. Claudia's coming
02:31with me. School's got to get to know her. Seeing as she's the one in charge of trouble here.
02:35You don't mind. No of course not. You go ahead. Never mind. At least you don't have to help
02:45with his own work. No you're right. I don't have to help anyone. I don't have to look after
02:50anyone except myself. Where's the rest of the rabble? School. Oh I'm here. I thought you were
03:06meant to be taking an interest in the kids. I'd rather take an interest in their mother.
03:11I don't give up. What's the problem? It's your day off. We've got the house to ourselves.
03:16Yeah and you've got a haulage yard to run. You know I've been thinking maybe we should
03:22ask Ashley if he'll take Ollie back in the youth club. He'll just say no. Not necessarily.
03:27Not if I use my powers of persuasion. Anyway she'll be safer there than hanging around your
03:31haulage yard trying to seduce your staff. If it gives us more time to ourselves then I'm
03:37all for it. Anything to make you happy. Sure. What about work? I've just given myself the
03:43morning off. Come on.
03:54Oh and I had to open up on me own and there was a coach party waiting and all.
03:59Betty I wanted to see Joseph. You forget what it's like. It's a big occasion your first day
04:04at school. Remember what Alice was like. Sorry I'm late. Yeah and what time do you call
04:10this? I said I'm sorry didn't I? Did I have a word? Thanks Betty. Oh customer Betty. Hi.
04:19Hello my love. What about a pick me up? What are you doing here? I'm on a sightseeing tour and very
04:32nice sights there. Right what do you want? I haven't got her all day. How about the dish of the day?
04:38It's off. You know you used to be a lot friendlier than this. I'm working. You shouldn't come
04:46round here bothering me. Right well I'll bother you someplace else. I mean it. Have you lost your head?
04:53No. I've lost my heart. Tell you what you think about it while I have a nice cup of tea.
05:02Time you and Bernice spent together if it was any other profession I'd say you were uncommonly close.
05:12Of course all your offering is spiritual succour. Oh dear. Oh that's where it's gone.
05:19Bernice was looking. I found it in the car. It must have dropped off on the way back from the
05:25bowling trip. I was going to return it. I thought so. You love her don't you? No. You fool. After all
05:35Bernice has been through you think you'll jump in there quick while her defences and heaven knows
05:39what else are down. You don't understand. Oh yes I do. I do. Believe me. I've been round the block and
05:46several inner ring roads. Not to mention up the M1 of a congested love life. I'm telling
05:51you. Leave my girl alone. What was all that about? Nothing. Nothing important. What do you think?
06:05They're for dad. It's just I hate to see graves neglected. Dad always liked roses. They're lovely. I used to be a bit of a gardener myself. Sweet peas. They were my favourite. Don't bother growing them now. Oh why not?
06:22They seem to waste. Nobody to share them with. Oh Ashley. You're as bad as me. Right that's it. You're going to meet me in the
06:29Woolpack later and we're going to have a serious talk about you and Bernice. Do we have to? Yes we do. Okay. Okay. Okay. We'll talk about Bernice.
06:38Then you have to tell me exactly what's going on with you and Frankie.
06:52I should be declared a rural disaster area. Can you do that? I'm speaking metaphorically.
07:00Get it. Is it that bad? Well so far today I've sold a quarter of pick and mix. Hardly counts against what I need.
07:08Is there anything I can do? I don't suppose I could tempt you with a Christmas pudding.
07:13Here Emily. Your old man's got another ad in the paper. What? While he farms in here.
07:18Oh he's not selling off more farm machinery is he? No it's not. Well he'll have nothing
07:23left to use on the farm. Well that's the thing. It's the farm what's up for sale. Look.
07:33Sarah if you spare a minute this one's for Eric. Thanks. Betty. Yeah. Betty and Rush
07:38I'll check my feet. Can you see the table too? It's witty. Yeah.
07:40It's amazing.
07:49Um. How am I expected to eat this?
07:53Well what's wrong with it?
07:56Well that where does one start? Cutlery? I don't seem to have any. Only they might help me to hack my way through some of this little lot.
08:04Say if you could run along and get me some. Thank you. You're a good girl.
08:14Ketchup?
08:16I'm sorry?
08:19Hello. Is anybody there? I asked for some ketchup.
08:23The one near marriage is in trouble if you're this cheerful at home.
08:35There is your ketchup. You know where you can stick it.
08:39Sarah?
08:40Oh go to hell.
08:44What did I say?
08:45What on earth is going on?
08:57Sarah are you okay?
09:00What's wrong?
09:02Hey.
09:03What is it?
09:05Is it something Eric said?
09:08Oh I...
09:10No, no, it's not Eric.
09:14It's Jack.
09:16It's Jack and me.
09:18It's Jack.
09:18So you enjoyed it then?
09:38Yes.
09:38Yeah? What would your teacher like?
09:41Nice.
09:42Well lucky you.
09:43If you want I can take him tomorrow.
09:45What's the point?
09:46Seems happy with Claudia, don't you?
09:47See? I told you he'd be fine.
09:50Yeah.
09:51Didn't even give us a second glance, did he?
09:53No.
09:54Off like a shot when you saw the sandpit.
09:55I didn't even get a goodbye kiss.
09:57Still.
09:58I'll get one now.
10:00Come on you.
10:01How about a quick game before tea?
10:07Oh, that girl is a godsend.
10:08Hmm.
10:09You've finally noticed.
10:10Oh yes I have.
10:11I mean she's great with Joseph.
10:12You can see how fond he is of her.
10:15After Rachel he needs some sort of...
10:16Mother figure?
10:18Well yeah.
10:19Well they'd have plenty to pick from.
10:21What with Claudia and now Cathy.
10:24And I thought you'd be pleased.
10:26They're trying to help.
10:28I am.
10:28It's just I would like to help too.
10:31Now you'd be too busy working or moping about over Frankie.
10:35That's not true.
10:35Oh come on.
10:36You come over all maternal.
10:38You start looking for something to fill your sad and lonely life.
10:42I'm sorry?
10:43If Frankie walked through that door you'd forget about Joseph.
10:46That isn't true.
10:47All I am saying is just because Frankie doesn't want you it doesn't mean that you can use Joseph
10:52as some sort of emotional stopgap.
10:54I love Joseph.
10:55I know.
10:56I'm just saying.
10:57I know what you're saying.
10:59You can't stand Frankie.
11:01You can't stand the thought of seeing me happy.
11:03But you're not happy.
11:04Oh.
11:05Goodness sake.
11:06I don't know why I bother.
11:07I mean what are you always telling me?
11:10Get a grip on my life.
11:12Maybe it's time you listen to your own advice.
11:15What's that?
11:16Your bill.
11:17Now shove off.
11:18You can't speak to your customers like that.
11:19I am not coming out with you.
11:20I'm an old woman.
11:21A very foolish old woman.
11:22I shouldn't have let you in here.
11:23All I want is for you to come out with me for a cup of tea.
11:25I can't.
11:26Look at us, Reggie.
11:27We're both way past any careings on.
11:29Or anything else, if the truth were told.
11:30Don't talk rubbish.
11:31You think you're still a good Você.
11:32I don't know how to ask a man.
11:33I can't speak to your customers like that.
11:34You can't speak to your customers like that.
11:35I am not coming out with you.
11:36I'm an old woman.
11:37A very foolish old woman, actually.
11:38I shouldn't have let you in here.
11:39All I want is for you to come out with me for a cup of tea.
11:41I can't.
11:45Look at us, Reggie.
11:46We're both way past any careings on.
11:49Or anything else, if the truth were told.
11:51Don't talk rubbish.
11:54You think you stop having fun the day you get your pension book.
11:58Well, there's a lot of life left in me, mate.
12:01And more than enough in you.
12:03I know.
12:05What about Seth?
12:08Look, I'm asking you out for a cup of tea.
12:11Not for your hand in marriage.
12:13Look, I... I lost touch with you once.
12:16I don't want it to happen again.
12:19Come out with me, Betty.
12:21A cup of tea. That's all I'm asking.
12:24All right. All right.
12:30I'll see what I can do.
12:33That's my girl.
12:37You told him what?
12:39That our marriage was over.
12:41I knew you weren't getting on, but...
12:43That's a bit of an understatement.
12:45Yes, but to say your marriage is over, Sarah...
12:48We haven't been getting on for some months now.
12:50It's like living with an acquaintance half the time.
12:53Oh, we're polite enough, but...
12:55We don't talk. Not really.
12:57Yes, but have you tried?
12:59Well, yeah.
13:00What's the point?
13:02Nothing changes.
13:04There are the kids, but...
13:07Do you know, he even sold my car without telling me.
13:10I'm just sick of it.
13:11It's the same old routine.
13:13The same old money problems.
13:14The same flipping sheep.
13:15Yeah, the same, Jack.
13:17Yep.
13:18The same, Jack.
13:20What a mess, eh?
13:22What a mess, eh?
13:31Hi.
13:32We wondered where you got to.
13:34Shall I forget youth club?
13:36Yeah, sure.
13:38I'll walk over with you.
13:39No, that's all right.
13:40I'll take him.
13:45See you later, then.
13:57Lord, not realise things were that bad.
13:59Any luck?
14:00No.
14:01There's, er...
14:02There's nobody up at the farm.
14:04And it were boarded up.
14:06What about auctioneers?
14:07Look, there's no forwarding address.
14:09Everything's got to go through the agents.
14:10They said it were repossession.
14:12I don't understand.
14:13My dad owned the farm.
14:14How can they repossess it?
14:16Well, I mean, time's what they are for farmers.
14:20Maybe he had to remorgage the farm to make ends meet.
14:24Look, my dad would have said if he were in trouble.
14:27He would have told me.
14:28Look, maybe...
14:30Maybe he didn't want to trouble you.
14:32But I'm his daughter.
14:33Why didn't he say summat?
14:35I could have helped him.
14:37Why didn't he tell me?
14:38I don't even know where he is.
14:40Perhaps he hasn't had time to get in touch with you yet.
14:43Happen he's staying with relatives.
14:45We don't have any.
14:49What, none?
14:50Not that I know of.
14:52They were just me and him.
14:56Now there's just me.
14:59I don't know where he is.
15:01Because he don't want me to know.
15:06She can't stand the sight of me.
15:08Oh, come on.
15:09I mean, Sarah's probably just...
15:11Well, I don't know.
15:12In one of the other moods.
15:13You know what women are like.
15:15The last thing she said to me was our marriage was over.
15:17Anything I say or do just irritates her.
15:20I don't know what it is.
15:21I mean, I'm not any different.
15:23It's always been a struggle.
15:25You know, the farm and money.
15:27It's just...
15:28She's changed.
15:30Can I ask you something?
15:32Does your wife have a habit of attacking men?
15:35Annie, she nearly took my head off with a sauce bottle this afternoon.
15:38I don't know what I'm going to do.
15:39Not now, Eric.
15:40Look, I know Ollie was out of order, but she's trying really hard.
15:49I'm not sure.
15:50If you let her go back to the youth club, I promise you there'll be no trouble.
15:54That's rich coming from you.
15:56Oh, I know things have got a bit out of hand recently.
15:59But can't you give her another chance?
16:02Oh, come on.
16:04I mean, you can't hold a grudge against a kid.
16:06Well, I don't blame Ashley for not wanting Ollie back.
16:09That child would try the patience of a saint.
16:11He's a vicar, not a saint.
16:12OK, OK, OK.
16:13Ollie can come back, but on her best behaviour.
16:16Oh, and there's a joining fee.
16:18Since when?
16:19Since I said so.
16:20Let's just call it reparation for any troubled, bad language or damaged cause.
16:24How much?
16:25£10 to the church roof fund.
16:27The amount of damage Ollie can cause, I'd say that was reasonable.
16:32I told you, a saint.
16:36You know your trouble, Ashley.
16:38You're too good by half.
16:39That's what you are.
16:41Hear, hear.
16:43So far today, she's called you her knight in shining armour as saint,
16:46which puts you on a par with St George.
16:48I'm not her knight in shining armour.
16:50I'm her vicar.
16:51I don't think that's how she sees you.
16:53That is exactly how she sees me.
16:55Bernice only talks to me the way she does because of my job.
16:57It's got nothing to do with your job.
16:59It's to do with you.
17:01You'll never know if you don't ask.
17:03You've got to tell her how you feel.
17:05I can't.
17:07At least this way I have something, even if it is just being her friend.
17:10You haven't.
17:11You're being dishonest with her and you're being dishonest with yourself.
17:14Oh, and you aren't.
17:15What about you and Frankie?
17:17I don't love Frankie.
17:19No.
17:20Of course you don't.
17:23So, any more plans for trips with the youth club?
17:26I don't know.
17:27I've no time to talk to Ashley.
17:28I'm surprised.
17:29He can't seem to keep away from here.
17:31It's a pub, mother.
17:33And he's just here for the drink.
17:35Well, why else would he be here?
17:37He might be a vicar, but he's entitled to some fun.
17:39Well, good luck to him.
17:40It's completely different from you and Bernice.
17:42Frankie didn't even say goodbye before she left.
17:43What do you expect?
17:44Did you actually tell her how you felt?
17:45I didn't have to.
17:46You didn't.
17:47So, it was clear where you stand.
17:48You tell me I'll be miserable if I don't talk to Bernice.
17:49You will be.
17:50And so will you if you don't talk to Frankie.
17:51Miserable and sad.
17:52Just like me.
17:53Still.
17:54At least I've got my parishioners.
17:55You've got your dog and Chris.
17:56Huh?
17:57You know she likes you.
17:58And you know Bernice likes you.
17:59Oh, stop it.
18:00You're right.
18:01You're absolutely right.
18:02You're right.
18:03You're right.
18:04You're right.
18:05You're absolutely right.
18:06I didn't have to.
18:07I didn't have to.
18:08You didn't have to.
18:09You didn't.
18:10So, it was clear where you stand.
18:11You know she likes you.
18:13And you know Bernice likes you.
18:16Oh, stop it.
18:17You're right.
18:18You're absolutely right.
18:19I do like her.
18:21I like her a lot.
18:23And do you know if she feels the same way?
18:25Oh, I don't know.
18:26Sometimes I think she does and others.
18:28You know, I almost got married once.
18:30Well, blessed.
18:32Her name was Emma and I dumped her at the altar for someone else.
18:37If I'm honest, it was just an excuse.
18:39I looked at her and I just saw a lifetime of cosy evenings in,
18:44drinking wine and listening to classical CDs.
18:48Everyone thought we were perfect together.
18:50Even Dad.
18:51But I suppose that was the problem.
18:53There was no excitement.
18:56It's different with Frankie.
18:57I'm not certain of her.
18:59I guess that's part of the attraction.
19:02What?
19:04Well, one thing's for sure.
19:06You'll never be certain.
19:08Not unless you talk to her.
19:11Let's go, Ashley.
19:12I think we need to sleep on this.
19:20Oh, for ready?
19:21Yes.
19:22Oh, well, perhaps I'll see you tomorrow.
19:24You can talk about the next youth club do.
19:26Fine.
19:27Me and all.
19:28Better get back and see what's happened to Betty.
19:30See ya.
19:31You know, call it feminine intuition, but Ashley didn't seem his usual self this evening.
19:38Perhaps his mind's on other things.
19:40He's other parishioners to think about, not just you.
19:43Anyway, I'd best get going.
19:45Erm, can I escort you across the road?
19:48No, you can't.
19:51Good night.
19:52What did you say that for?
19:53I don't want you being pounced on by him.
19:55Why not?
19:56Right, I liked it.
19:57Yeah, well, that's what I'm afraid of.
19:58Anyway, it's for your own good.
20:00Oh, leave her alone.
20:01Let her enjoy it.
20:02At least she's got an admirer.
20:04Unlike us two.
20:05Well, you know what our problem is, don't you?
20:07Oh, don't get me started.
20:08There's no talent round here.
20:10Rubbish.
20:11There's loads of gorgeous men in this village.
20:16When I saw, she was talking to Pollard.
20:20You know, I reckon he's after Diane.
20:25How would you know?
20:28I can tell.
20:30It's my male intuition.
20:35Seth?
20:36What?
20:38You know I...
20:41Well, you know I'm fond of you, don't you?
20:45What's brought this on?
20:46Oh.
20:48Keeping me bit on the side happy.
20:51Even though he is a cantankerous old devil.
20:55I love you and all.
21:03No, you're right.
21:04I should stop lecturing you and get on with it.
21:08You know what?
21:09What?
21:11I'm sick of Chris and the dog and Claudia's very sweet,
21:14but not the person I want to come home to.
21:18So here's the deal.
21:19What?
21:21I will tell Frankie exactly how I feel.
21:24Great.
21:26If you tell Bernice.
21:30I can't.
21:31It's easier for you.
21:32I have to go and find Frankie.
21:33You know where Bernice is.
21:39It isn't that easy.
21:40Yes, it is.
21:42I'm not going to do it if you don't.
