00:01I love you.
03:00Yes, I made an appointment with the estate agent for you to view next Thursday.
03:06How does today look?
03:07I'm pretty hectic, I'm afraid.
03:09I've got a board meeting at 10, luncheon with Dalton, a meeting with Sanders at 3 o'clock.
03:14Oh, and I tentatively penciled in Carlton for 4 o'clock.
03:18Carlton? What does he want?
03:19He just wants an hour of your time to go over the revised forecast for the Lausanne project.
03:23No, I've decided not to go ahead with that now.
03:26She'd better cancel him.
03:27Very well.
03:29Morning, Jack.
03:30Morning, sir.
03:31So, then, after Sanders, the rest of the day is clear.
03:33Good.
03:45Good.
04:04Well, then, how's everything going with this cocktail party tomorrow evening?
04:07Well, I've got a copy of the guest list here.
04:11Apart from Councillor Davis, everyone else is attending.
04:16Well, what about Masters? I don't see his name on here.
04:19I don't believe he was sent to an invitation.
04:23Why?
04:24Charles, when you started up operations in this area, I thought you wanted local dignitaries to attend.
04:30Well, Masters just isn't in that league.
04:32I want him here tomorrow evening, Gerald, and I want him cultivated along with everybody else who can be of
04:37some use to us.
04:38All right, I'll attend to it personally.
04:43Morning!
04:44Morning!
04:45Morning! Did Lynn get off all right?
04:47She'll be halfway to the Isle of Wight by now.
04:50How's she feeling? Excited, I'll bet.
04:52Every second seemed like an hour before she left.
04:54God knows what she'll be like by the time she gets to the start of the race.
05:10Well, I hope so.
05:12Bye.
05:14Bye.
05:17Bye.
05:19Bye.
05:22Come on.
05:23Bye.
05:24Bye.
06:15Oh, hello, Lynn. You've made it. You've met Denise, haven't you, but not Sally.
06:19Hi. Lynn Howard, Sally Thompson.
06:22Hello. Hi.
06:23Why don't you get your gear down below and get settled in?
06:26Sue and Joan are in town. They're getting in some more supplies.
06:29We'll be going for our race plan and safety checks in a couple of hours' time.
07:19I thought I could persuade Jan, but I was hopeless.
07:24They were back to square one.
07:25Yes. Unless we come up with firm proposals, the bank will foreclose. Damn. So frustrating.
07:32We could have easily covered the inject with the equity on the house.
07:37If I sold the fish, it still wouldn't be enough.
07:39Oh. No.
07:40Madness is looking for at least 20% of the prototype cost.
07:44Wait a minute. It might. If Jack could be persuaded to make over his house, too.
07:51Oh, Tommy already has. The bank took a second charge on it last year.
07:56When do we have to get back to Meadows?
07:59Four o'clock.
08:00That doesn't give us much time.
08:04I just have to try Jan again.
08:09Nothing else we can do.
08:12How's your game, then, lad?
08:13All right.
08:17My, you do look smart.
08:19Yeah. Not bad, is it?
08:21I had to put on all the gear this morning because of the board meeting.
08:24Oh, yes. How'd it go?
08:26Well, I can't complain, I suppose.
08:28But business is turning over in all the garages.
08:30It's just the directors.
08:32They've got no class.
08:35No, I'm tired of them all.
08:37And of the smell of grease and oil.
08:40So why don't you and I go out for a special lunch, eh?
08:43You can brief me on your trip to London.
08:45I'm sorry, I can't.
08:47Tom's asked me out to lunch.
08:50I thought now you weren't going along with him about the house,
08:53he'd be the last person to invite you out to lunch.
08:56So did I.
08:59What's all this, then?
09:00I'm just finalising the details of my trip.
09:03Oh.
09:04You'll be going at some, won't you?
09:05To see all these people.
09:06Well, not really.
09:07Sonia Fielding thinks she'll be able to introduce me to most of them
09:09at the reception after her show.
09:11Old school network, eh?
09:13As I told you before, it's not exclusive to men.
09:16No, no.
09:17No, good for you.
09:18There's no point in having contacts unless you're going to use them.
09:20I'm not using anyone, Ken.
09:23Sonia's a friend of mine, not just a contact.
09:26You may use yours, but I don't mind.
09:27Oh, I don't use mine, believe you me.
09:29They wouldn't do me any good.
09:31They've got no style.
09:41Master's Chandra, eh?
09:43Yes, Gerald, he is.
09:45Hang on a second.
09:46Gerald Urquhart.
09:48Tell him I'm in conference and not available.
09:58Hello, Gerald.
10:00He's in conference at the moment and has asked not to be disturbed.
10:04Can I take a message?
10:07Mm-hmm.
10:09Oh, very nice.
10:13Yes.
10:14Absolutely.
10:16All right.
10:17Bye for now.
10:19What was all that about?
10:21It's called playing the game.
10:23When you're negotiating with people, don't always be available.
10:27You remember that.
10:29But you might miss out on something.
10:30Never.
10:31Are you sure?
10:32Yeah.
10:34Oh.
10:35It's just that Gerald was asking you to a cocktail party tomorrow evening at his place.
10:40Apparently all the local dignitaries are going to be there.
10:44Sounds quite the occasion.
10:47Perhaps you should change your tactics, Ken.
10:51Especially if you're looking for style.
10:54Did you get the forecast?
10:55Mm.
10:56Easterly.
10:56Three to four.
10:57All the way to the city.
10:58Mm.
10:58That should give us a good start out of the needles.
11:00It should do.
11:01Seeing as Sally won't be taking a turn in the galley.
11:03I see you've heard all about my culinary delights.
11:07Particularly in the Morgan Cup.
11:09The melted spatula in the pan sounded delicious.
11:12My reputation spreads far and wide.
11:14Would you believe it?
11:16What's this, Lynn?
11:17A women's lived day trip?
11:19What does it look like?
11:21No.
11:22Don't tell me you girls are here for the race.
11:24Is it a friend of yours?
11:26No.
11:27Oh, Lynn.
11:28You disappoint me.
11:29And we were so close once.
11:31Aren't you going to introduce me to your friends?
11:35Don't get lost.
11:37Why are you offering to navigate?
11:39See you at the start line, if you can get that far.
11:46He's a bit full of himself, isn't he?
11:49Yes.
11:51Which is why we've got to beat him.
11:55There you go, Lynn.
11:56Thanks, Chief.
11:59Sorry about that, Jack.
12:00Oh, no problem, Arthur.
12:02What was I?
12:04August, 1947.
12:06The boat had been completed and was just about to be launched.
12:09Ah, yeah, yeah.
12:10Right, right.
12:11Monday, I think it was.
12:12No.
12:13No, I'd tell a lie.
12:14It was on a Sunday because all the apprentices came down to see the boat being launched on the day
12:20of...
12:21I know.
12:23She was a beauty, Arthur.
12:25First boat I ever built.
12:27So you've already said, Jack.
12:29Right, Varner, she was.
12:32Real careful stuff, too.
12:35Do you know, Arthur, I'm telling you that when I stood on that dock and watched her slip into the
12:42water, it brought tears to my eyes.
12:45It was.
12:46Oh, those were the days.
12:49You didn't need a semi-lines to build a boat then, Arthur.
12:53Just sweat on your brow and blisters on your B.U.M.
12:57I'll get it, if you'll excuse me, Jack.
13:00Yeah, right, right.
13:03Jolly sailor.
13:04Then I'll tell you...
13:05Yes, he is.
13:06Hold on.
13:10It's for you, Jack.
13:12Harvey's that two-faced daughter of mine I don't want to speak to her.
13:15It's not Avril, Jack.
13:17It's a Mrs. Harvey.
13:19I don't know Mrs. Harvey.
13:22Well, she seemed to know you.
13:26Hello.
13:29Oh, it's you.
13:30Jack, what are you doing?
13:32Queuing up for fish and chips.
13:34What do you think I'm doing?
13:35I mean, what are you doing there?
13:38Drinking.
13:39How did you know I was here?
13:41Telepathic again, are you?
13:42Process of elimination.
13:44I rang up the boatyard and they said you weren't in.
13:47I was going to ask you to the races over the weekend.
13:49Get away from things.
13:50No, thank you.
13:51I'm not interested in horses.
13:53I would just want to be near my boat.
13:56And bottles, by the sound of it.
13:57Oh, no, don't you start on me.
13:59That's all I need.
14:00Exactly.
14:01It is just what you need.
14:03Going to a pub every single time you get into a spot of trouble
14:06is boring and childish and downright pusillanimous.
14:10What?
14:11Feeble, if you prefer it.
14:12For heaven's sake, pull yourself together.
14:14Oh, stop nagging me and leave me alone.
14:17You old teabag.
14:20Sam, we're getting off the police.
14:27Are you sure?
14:31I don't think I'm just going to get around for a free land.
14:33Go on, that's enough for two of us.
14:35Three of us, you mean?
14:39Sorry, I haven't made anything.
14:42Hey.
14:44Why did you come round?
14:46I told you, I was in the area getting some materials for this decorating job I'm doing.
14:49So, whilst I was in town, I thought I'd stop by.
14:51Real reasoning.
14:54Alright.
14:55I wanted to talk to you about your decision to have the abortion.
15:00Thought so.
15:04You don't believe in it, do you?
15:06No.
15:07But it doesn't matter what I believe, and only what you believe in.
15:10If you're sure what you're doing is right.
15:13Well, are you?
15:16Yes.
15:19You feel that way now, but in a few years you might feel differently.
15:24Leo, please.
15:26Do you think it's easy for me?
15:28I've already made my decision.
15:31So just...
15:33Leave it.
15:35Please.
15:42Abby!
15:47Okay, I was wrong.
15:49I'm sorry.
15:51I'd never want anyone imposing their beliefs on me, and I shouldn't try and impose mine on you.
15:56I'm only trying to help.
15:58I didn't mean to upset you.
16:00I'm not upset.
16:02Yes, you are.
16:02Look at me.
16:08It's just I have to...
16:13Go to the clinic tomorrow to sort it all out.
16:22I don't think I haven't gone over all the alternatives.
16:27Because I have...
16:33Over and over again.
16:42I mean, I'm carrying the baby, Leo.
16:51He's with me every minute of the day.
16:53Oh, come on.
16:56Everything's going to be all right.
17:05Give me another shot, Arthur, and make it a large one.
17:09Are you going at it a bit early in the day, aren't you?
17:11Well, who's watching the time?
17:13And the third stroke, it'll be Scotch o'clock.
17:15Look, Jack.
17:16Why don't you get yourself home?
17:19Why don't you go get yourself stuff?
17:24Now, take it easy, Jack.
17:26I don't want trouble.
17:28Well, you better bloody well serve me, then, aren't you?
17:31Are you refusing me a drinky puss?
17:35I am.
17:38Now, come on, Jack.
17:40I've known you for over 25 years.
17:42And I know when you've had too much to do.
17:45All right, then.
17:47I'll be checking my drinking somewhere else in the future.
17:51Plenty of other pubs, you know.
17:54Some friend you are.
17:58Mr. Rhodes, was it?
18:08I wondered why the sudden invitation to lunch.
18:12I thought it was to make up after our argument last night.
18:15Not to try to force me to agree with you about the house.
18:18I'm not trying to force you.
18:20I'm trying to convince you that a compromise is fair.
18:23Don't you understand?
18:24I have to raise the capital.
18:26And this is the only way I can do it.
18:33Otherwise, I go under.
18:34It's as simple as that.
18:38Dividing up the house all seems rather final.
18:41Don't you think?
18:44Almost as if you're going your way and I'm going mine.
18:47No, it's a purely financial arrangement.
18:50It makes sense under the circumstances.
18:52I understand your point of view.
18:54All I ask is that you understand mine.
18:57I've come too far to go back now.
19:00What about the monthly payments on the loan?
19:02They'll be continued until the prototype goes into production.
19:05Then I can clear the loan entirely.
19:07And if you don't?
19:08You'll have the house.
19:10Effectively, I'll be bought out.
19:12You'll be covered either way.
19:17All right, Tom, if that's what you want.
19:22It's the only way to be fair to us both.
19:26Yes.
19:27And we must be fair to us both, mustn't we?
19:35I have to go.
19:36I have to go.
20:06I have to go.
21:11Oh, come on!
21:15Come on, you're going to be beat by a factor with me!
21:25Come on, we're winning!
21:28We're rubbishing them, girls!
21:39Go, go, go!
21:41I'm beating a pencil!
22:13Jack!
22:16Jack!
22:17I know you're in there!
22:20Come on out!
22:22It's Kate!
22:24For heaven's sake!
22:26Look, if you want to tell me to go to hell, come and tell me to my face!
22:52Jack!
22:57Jack!
23:02Oh, my God!
23:04Jack!
23:11Jack!
23:12Jack!
23:13Jack!
23:15Jack!
23:15Jack!
23:16Jack!
23:17Jack!
23:20Jack!
23:34John!
23:44Oh!
23:48I'll get a copy of the formal agreement to you as soon as it's drawn up.
23:51And, Mr. Meadows, thanks for your cooperation.
23:55Bye.
23:58The loan will be transferred to the yard account by tomorrow.
24:01And the overdraft?
24:03Marked forward to cover the cost of building the prototype.
24:07Thank God for that.
24:08Yes. Let's hope Jack feels the same way too.
24:32Jack?
24:39Jack?
24:42What the bloody hell's going on?
24:45It's all right. Don't worry. You'll be all right.
24:49Where am I?
24:51In a rehabilitation center.
24:53What?
24:54A drying out clinic.
24:55I find you unconscious and I dialed 999.
24:58I thought you'd had a heart attack.
25:01Have I?
25:02No.
25:03What am I doing in this place?
25:06They diagnosed acute alcoholic poisoning.
25:10What?
25:11Drink.
25:11Oh, I feel awful.
25:16I'm not surprised.
25:17Doctors say that you've had more whiskey flowing through your veins during the past 24 hours than blood.
25:23Oh, very funny.
25:24No, it's pathetic.
25:25Because it's true.
25:28I'm not staying in this place, you know.
25:30You can go whenever you like.
25:32It's your life.
25:33You want to kill yourself with drink or end up in the gutter.
25:36There's the door.
25:37Just go.
25:40If you'd seen yourself as I found you, and if you're even half the man I think you are, Jack
25:45Rolfe, don't you dare.
25:57Let me know you.
26:39Are you all right?
26:40Yeah, I think so.
26:42What's happened?
26:43Grand phone.
26:45She couldn't make it so I was lumbered with cooking dinner.
26:48And there it is.
26:50Mmm, smells delicious. What was it?
26:52Stential casserole. Health food.
26:55Doesn't look too healthy now, does it?
26:57No.
26:59Mum phoned.
27:00She arrived safely at the hotel.
27:03How was she?
27:05All right.
27:07She'd seen some of the highlights of the fastener on the television.
27:11After all that hassle about Lynn taking part, she actually seemed quite excited.
27:14Ah, well, so she should.
27:17Big occasion in Lynn's life.
27:19If she gets a good result, it could open up all sorts of doors.
27:23Yeah.
27:24If any of them lead into the kitchen, she wants to give them a wide berth.
27:30I wonder Mum was so eager to find another career.
27:34Right.
27:35That's it.
27:39Just have to whip up a few savoury risso's, I suppose.
27:42Some what?
27:42Risso's.
27:43We need a few, uh, soybeans, grated nuts.
27:46Leo.
27:47Uh-huh.
27:47Let's eat out.
27:50Yeah.
28:04How are we doing?
28:05We're here, about two miles from the fastener.
28:08Morning Glory passed it at 6.20, so we're about two hours behind.
28:12So we could be right up there with the meters then.
28:14I would say so.
28:17Has the wind held during your watch?
28:19Yeah, it's still now, but it's near 20 degrees or so.
28:22We're almost quite so old, so we should be fast running home when we run the rock.
28:32What course are you staring now?
28:34Well, we're holding 315 degrees quite nicely, but there's no need to look at the compass.
28:38There's the fastener rock dead on the nose.
28:41Just steer straight for it.
28:46Yes, you see, Rupert, darling, I want this to flow a little bit more.
28:50It's a tiny bit sort of skimpy here.
28:52Not quite sort of generous enough.
28:54I like you to pick it up.
28:55Jam, darling, come on in.
28:58Right, now, can you do the same for the other side?
29:01You know, be more generous with it.
29:04Darling, how are you?
29:05Fine, it's lovely to see you.
29:07And you, and this is very good news.
29:09Well, we'll see.
29:11You've done all right for yourself, I must say.
29:13Yes, not bad.
29:15It's been quite a struggle to get established over the years, but I guess it all seems to be paying
29:19off now.
29:20Do you like those?
29:22They're lovely.
29:23Yes, nice, aren't they?
29:23This whole order's going to Delacroix.
29:25Come and have a look at these over here.
29:27These are my feet.
29:29They're all from Georgina von Etstorff designs.
29:31Do you know her stuff?
29:32Oh, yes.
29:32Yes, these.
29:34Love.
29:37Yes, nice, isn't it?
29:39This whole order is going to go to Moulton's, which I'm very pleased about.
29:43Now, this is Annie, my cutting lady.
29:45Hello.
29:45And Wendy.
29:49Jasmine, would you give us some tea, please, darling?
29:51Tea?
29:52Yeah.
29:52Oh, yes, white with no sugar.
29:53White and black with no sugar.
29:54Thank you, darling.
29:57And this is my little nest here.
30:03Steady now.
30:04Get it right under cover, lads.
30:07It looks fine all the way through to me.
30:09Bill, what do you think?
30:10Could have done with a bit longer to dry out, I suppose.
30:12Seems all right.
30:13We'll make sure they stack it properly when you can't afford to let it spoil.
30:17Spoil.
30:18We'll do when it's on his ruddy boat.
30:24Well, it's not lines on pieces of paper now, is it?
30:28How's it feel?
30:29Must be quite a moment for you.
30:31We've still got a long way to go, but you know, I think we're going to get there.
30:48Oh, wait.
30:50No, you don't have to.
30:51I'll make my own back.
30:52I know I don't have to, Abby.
30:53I want to.
30:54I've got nothing else planned for today, anyway.
30:57Oh, OK.
30:59Davy's father sounds like a really good doctor, so don't worry.
31:03These are terrific, Sonia, really.
31:06When will they be ready?
31:07Provided the production outlet's on schedule, within 10, 12 weeks.
31:12I'm definitely interested.
31:14If there's anything that particularly catches your eye, I can show you a mock-up.
31:18It'll be difficult to choose.
31:19I like them all.
31:25Especially these.
31:27Sonia, these dress designs are quite stunning.
31:30Yes, yes, they are, aren't they?
31:33Unfortunately, they're not mine.
31:35They were done by a young fashion photographer we use.
31:38He's desperate to get into full-time design.
31:40If this is an indication of what he can do, he shouldn't have too much trouble.
31:43That's nothing to what he can really do.
31:45His best son was usually thrown away in fits of frustration.
31:47He is absolutely brilliant, Jan.
31:49But he's his own worst enemy.
31:51If only he'd start believing in himself, he could go all the way.
31:55What's his name?
31:57Claude Dupont.
31:59He's based just outside Cannes, but he's over here this week, taking some pictures.
32:03I can introduce you if you'd like to meet him.
32:05I'd love to meet him.
32:07All right.
32:08I'll call the studio, see if I can fix up something for this afternoon.
32:11I can refer you to a gynaecologist.
32:14Though I must tell you, the termination of a pregnancy this far advanced
32:19is usually only recommended if the health of the mother is threatened.
32:23And that's not the case.
32:25I know.
32:27Do your parents know you're pregnant?
32:29No, I haven't told them.
32:31May I ask why?
32:34There was no point.
32:36They don't really care about me.
32:38Or each other for the matter.
32:41But you.
32:43Surely you care about this child you're carrying?
32:46No.
32:48Then why have you waited so long before inquiring about an abortion?
32:54Are you certain that's what you want?
32:57Yes.
33:00Very well.
33:03I'll make an appointment for you to see one of the clinic's social workers.
33:07I need their reports before I can refer your case.
33:10Why?
33:12Why?
33:13It's in your own interest.
33:15To ensure that an abortion is the right thing for you and the child you're carrying.
33:19And not something you might regret.
33:28Physically, they reckon I'm fine.
33:30But the woman who does all the psychological stuff thinks I'm a bit low and in need of a rest.
33:36Oh, thank you.
33:37Jack.
33:38Well, she is.
33:39Do you know, I'm in her office this morning.
33:43She poured me out a glass of water.
33:45And I had to sit there for over an hour while she asked me questions about it.
33:49About what?
33:49About the glass of water.
33:52Is the glass half full, Mr. Rolf, or is it half empty?
33:56If you ask me, she's the one who needs her head examined.
34:00They know what they're doing.
34:02I sure as hell don't.
34:04You will go through with the program, won't you?
34:06Well, take it one day at a time, as they say.
34:09Good, Jack.
34:11What about Avril?
34:12You should let her know you're here.
34:14There's no point.
34:16I shall probably be seeing her again soon.
34:18Because, Kate, I tell you, if I have to see that old bag again, I'm off.
34:46Excellent.
34:48Very good.
35:13I think we have a problem here.
35:16And it's wonderful.
35:37Thank you very much, it's very good.
35:43Love it, darling.
35:46Darling.
35:47Ah.
35:47Hello, Sonia.
35:49Hello.
35:49I'm not stopping.
35:52Claude, I'd like you to meet Jan Howard.
35:55Jan, Claude Dupont.
35:56How do you do?
35:57How do you do?
35:58Jan's been taking a look at your designs, darling.
36:01She was very impressed.
36:02She wanted to meet you.
36:03Well, I am pleased that you enjoyed them.
36:06Enjoyed them?
36:06I adored them.
36:08And I think they'll do very well.
36:10Perhaps one day.
36:11You see, he just refuses to accept that he's got talent.
36:15Oh, I know.
36:16I accept that.
36:17But the question is if other people will accept it.
36:19Well, they will if you will, darling.
36:23Claude, Jan's opening a new boutique.
36:27She's very interested in your catalogue.
36:29Really?
36:30Well, we're just starting out.
36:32You know, buying in stock.
36:33We can only carry a limited range at the moment, but yes, I am.
36:38Very interested.
36:39Well, if you are available after the shoot, I could show you some examples of my designs.
36:45I should be finished in about one hour.
36:47Oh, I've got another appointment at four, I'm afraid.
36:49Then you might like to meet later to discuss business.
36:53Over dinner, perhaps?
36:56Yes, Claude.
36:57I'd like that.
36:59Very much.
37:16Give a pull on the leech line.
37:20Jane, take the slack out of the kicker.
37:25Just an inch on the leech line.
37:32Oh, no, no, no!
37:33I have to take the helm, Lynn.
37:35I think I've broken my arm.
37:40What path were you steering?
37:420-9-5.
37:49There he is.
37:51Keep pointing, Sally.
37:52Keep pointing.
37:58Okay, I'm tacking.
38:01Get that full sail down.
38:06We've got her, Sally.
38:07Yeah, we've got her.
38:09Keep pointing.
38:16There, she's at it.
38:17Right here.
38:31Come on, love.
38:32We'll come get you out.
38:36Are you okay, Denise?
38:38No, she's in there.
38:39I know.
38:39She's in there.
38:40All right.
38:49Roll her in.
38:56Get her through this.
38:57All right?
39:00Get her down below.
39:02You all right, please?
39:03All right, we'd better get that dumb boy up quickly.
39:06All right.
39:08Get inside there, okay?
39:11Oh.
39:13You got it, Jo?
39:14Yeah.
39:15Watch it, watch it.
39:18Okay.
39:20We'd better get you into the nearest port.
39:23No, it's just as near the Plymouth. It'll be all right.
39:26Look, by the time we got there, we might just as well have finished the race.
39:28It's not worth it, Jo. It's only a race. There'll be lots of others.
39:32If Jo's willing to finish the race, so should you be.
39:34We can't give up. Not now.
39:37Not when we're doing so well.
39:38Well, that's easy for you to say. You haven't got the broken arm.
39:41Thanks, Sally, but you haven't got the helm.
39:46I'm going down below to see to this arm.
39:48Now, you've got control, then.
39:49And remember, there's just one place that we're heading for, and that's Plymouth.
39:57Now, just remember, darling, that Charles has invited not only the board of directors, but some very influential people here
40:03this evening.
40:03So just watch what you drink, and say...
40:06Spare me the briefing, Gerald. It's becoming a fall.
40:09Just as long as you understand.
40:10Oh, I understand all right. It's the same every time we're required to play hosts or summoned to attend.
40:16Now, I mean it, Polly. This is a very important occasion for Charles.
40:19And we mustn't upset Charles, must we?
40:22Oh, God. Now, you're not going to start, are you?
40:24Oh, no, darling. Not when Charles Freer requires every good wife to do her duty.
40:29So you just give me the cues, as you always do.
40:32And I'll be there, on your arm, with a smile.
41:03That's all the invoices entered. How's the revised forecast looking?
41:08Hang on. I'll let you know in a minute.
41:14Well? Assuming we tighten up the cash flow, and get our invoices paid on time.
41:21I'd say with a capital inject. 16 to 18 weeks.
41:26So we're clear.
41:27Looks like.
41:30Well, I don't know about you.
41:32Now I've had enough for one day.
41:33Oh, I know how you feel.
41:40Come on. If you've got nothing else planned, I'll take you out to dinner.
41:46All right.
41:47Where would you like to go?
41:49How about Caspers?
41:51Why not?
41:52We deserve it.
41:54It's been quite a day.
41:55It certainly has.
41:58On second floor, I know somewhere else you might like to go.
42:03Will we have to book?
42:05No.
42:07Ah, darling, you really are.
42:09You want to ask us?
42:10You want to ask us?
42:12Don't.
42:14So you're in banking then, John?
42:17Ah, yes, yes, that's right, yes.
42:19Locally?
42:20Well, no, we're actually internationally.
42:23Merchant bankers, you know?
42:25Oh.
42:25Ah, we deal all over the world.
42:29If you, er, want advice at any time, don't hesitate to call.
42:33I'll do that, John.
42:37Sir, John.
42:38Sorry, I didn't realise.
42:39Oh, John.
42:40Apologise, it happens all the time.
42:42So, er, what line are you in, Kenneth?
42:46Well, I'm on the board of a few companies, you know.
42:49Yeah?
42:50Er, where are you based?
42:52In town?
42:53Er, no, just outside, actually.
42:55Tarrant.
42:57What's Jeremy's wife's name?
42:59Sylvia.
42:59You met her just over a year ago.
43:01Jeremy.
43:03Sylvia.
43:04How are you?
43:08Do you know I haven't seen you since Jeremy was appointed to the board?
43:12That must be...
43:13Well, it's over a year ago, at least.
43:15Darling, how awful, Paul.
43:17I always thought you and Pam were such friends.
43:20Well, do make it up before Saturday at Adam's party.
43:22I'll be ashamed of myself.
43:24Oh.
43:25Excuse me for a minute.
43:27Ken!
43:28Lovely to see you.
43:29Paulie.
43:30It's a splendid deal.
43:32How are you?
43:33Fine.
43:34Jan's in town, I hear.
43:36Yes, that's right.
43:37She's away on a buying trip.
43:38I do so envy her pursuing her career.
43:41If you're planning any expansion and need a capable pair of hands, I'm really willing and able to do it.
43:47Well, I'll bear that in mind, yes.
43:48Paulie.
43:52You're looking as wonderful as ever.
43:54Positively shimmering.
43:55Thank you, Charles.
43:56Oh.
43:57Jen, good to see you.
43:58And you.
43:58I trust you're being taken care of.
44:01We always take care of your guests, Charles.
44:03You know that.
44:05Well, if you gentlemen will excuse me.
44:08Yes.
44:11Oh, thank you.
44:12You're welcome.
44:15Actually, Sir John and I were just saying, I'm impressed we were with the staff.
44:19I mean, they really know what the word service means, don't they?
44:21Well, let them spoil you and enjoy it, Ken.
44:24Oh.
44:25We're due to meet soon, I believe, to discuss the marine development.
44:27That's right, yeah.
44:28I'll be phoning Gerald as soon as I've gone over all of the proposals.
44:32Good.
44:32I'll look forward to that.
44:33I was checking this out today.
44:35I must say it's an ideal location for a marina.
44:38Or for any other development, come to mind.
44:41There are other interested parties, you know.
44:45Oh, yes, yes, I'm sure there are.
44:48And if you can get your asking price from them, my advice to you would be to sell.
44:52I'd never stand in the way of a good business proposition.
44:55I'm glad to hear him.
44:57Oh, I hear Sir John.
44:59You should meet him.
45:00He's an international banker.
45:02Or perhaps you already know.
45:04Hmm.
45:04We have met.
45:06Well, if you'll excuse me, I'll just go and have a chat.
45:09Sir John.
45:11Steer him away from Stephen's.
45:14Gerald, keep an eye on him.
45:17Now, in this time, I'm going to try a minute.
45:19Yeah.
45:20Yeah.
45:24Right.
45:40To be honest, I'm not a good man.
45:41There, I will not stand in the way.
45:41But we'll be right back.
45:41To be honest.
45:53thank you thank you not only for the meal but for the thought well when I saw you unloading
