00:06We come on the slip, John B. My grandpappy and me.
00:15Down that store town we can't go.
00:20Drink it all night. Got into a fight.
00:28Well, I feel so broken up. I want to go home.
00:35So, hoist up, hoist up the John B. Say, see how it says, call for the captain of shore, let
00:46me go home.
00:47Yeah, don't you let me go home, let me go home.
00:51Let me go home, I want to go home.
00:54Yeah, yeah, well, I feel so broken up. I want to go home.
01:02Well, if that's not a recipe for mediocrity.
01:08Oh, bad heel day. Nightmare. Were they dear?
01:13My mother's.
01:14She means, were they expensive?
01:16Oh, no, not at all.
01:19We economise.
01:19Well, we are saving for the house.
01:22You're not going back, then?
01:24To your village? Wherever it is?
01:26Your real home.
01:28Russia?
01:29Serbia.
01:30This is our home now.
01:32We buy a house here.
01:33Oh.
01:35Oh, well.
01:38Come on.
01:41Proctor musicians, this way.
01:48Come on.
01:51The first make he not strong.
01:55Broken the cat's and strong.
01:59Constable had to come and take him away.
02:02Oh, God, no, I don't sing.
02:04Anyone can sing.
02:22Will they be monopolising the place all day?
02:25We are early.
02:27We'll have it another five minutes.
02:38Don't knock it till you try, Vicka.
02:42Okay, guys.
02:43Um, bit of excitement.
02:44Dear God, will my heart stand the strain.
02:50Um, comrades.
02:52There has been a request for us to do a little piece
02:55during the signing of the register
02:57at the Langridge-Platt wedding next month.
02:59I thought they were having the Mith and Royd chorus.
03:01Indeed, but, er, I suspect old language
03:03feels a tad embarrassed.
03:04But what, is daughter-shipping in a migrant choir?
03:07In other words, this is a sop to our egos.
03:09The very least they could do.
03:11And what are we singing?
03:12Um, well, I thought we'd stick with old Haydn.
03:15By thee with bliss.
03:16Adam and Eve duet going into full chorus.
03:19So, who can I ask to do Eve?
03:22Why the charade?
03:23Everyone knows it'll be...
03:24Lulu.
03:27Fancy having a crack?
03:30There'll only be about, er, 200 guests.
03:33The Mith and Royd chorus.
03:34Oh, the Duck and Field bugle.
03:36Oh?
03:37Er, do you know what?
03:40I think it's only fair to give others a go.
03:43I'm not one to hog the limelight.
03:45Well, in that case, er, Leila.
03:49Could you be persuaded?
03:50No, I dare say so.
03:52And for Adam, Gilbert.
03:54Well, er, yes, yes.
03:56What do you think of us giving one of the newcomers a chance?
03:59Hmm?
04:02Nemanja.
04:04Would you like to have a bash at Adam for us?
04:09Sure.
04:11Sure.
04:11Yeah.
04:13Yeah.
04:23Just suppose.
04:28I think with me
04:38A heart to start
04:45Both heaven and earth's heart
04:50This world so great, so wonderful
04:59My mighty land has made
05:11This world so great
05:21So wonderful
05:23He can sing?
05:25Yep.
05:26You can't.
05:29I told you.
05:30But we like a challenge.
05:35I'm digging the hair, by the way.
05:37Oh, keeps it out of the way.
05:39What?
05:40You might want to practice receiving a compliment with Grace.
05:44Where is she?
05:45Hmm?
05:46Grace.
05:47She comes and goes, sweetheart.
05:48It's just the way she is.
05:50Don't worry, mate.
05:50She'll be back.
05:51She won't be able to resist.
05:57Once the new sofas arrive.
06:00What?
06:00Imagine this space.
06:03With some big, squishy sofas.
06:05And a cafe bar, serving shit-hot espresso.
06:08And some homemade cranberry muffins.
06:10And a couple of computers with internet access.
06:13Are you insane?
06:14Where you can pop in, you can rehearse a bit, you can grab a latte, you can check your Facebook.
06:18Or a French conversation class.
06:20Or the Tondalong Appreciation Society.
06:23This isn't actually happening.
06:25Oh, yeah.
06:26If I can help it.
06:27We need to be asking ourselves the question, are we running a building here for ten people and a choir?
06:32Or do we actively throw open the doors, invite the entire world in and see what sticks?
06:38It's the way to go, Esther.
06:39But the committee, they need to...
06:41Needs to get behind it.
06:42Or we need a new committee.
06:45But most immediately, this place needs brightening up a bit.
06:48So if anybody knows a decorator...
06:52So, you've never had any formal training.
06:55My father sent me for lessons when I was 12.
06:58But I prefer football and girls.
07:01Don't let Sophia hear you say that.
07:04She knows.
07:05We met when I was 17.
07:07No wonder she snapped you up.
07:09You must have been quite a catch.
07:10She was catch.
07:12She had career.
07:13I was just student.
07:14And then you brought her over here?
07:15We brought each other.
07:17Lucky for us.
07:19We have a new baritone.
07:20Church has a new cleaner.
07:22You know, we should talk about you doing some leader.
07:25Maybe even a spot at JSB.
07:27Oh.
07:29Oh.
07:30Come it, sweetie.
07:31It's Glossop, not La Scala.
07:33Oh, no, no.
07:34But the chance for him to be invited to sing, it means a lot to me.
07:37To us both.
07:40Maybe you'll be asked next.
07:42Oh, I don't think so.
07:43Nemanja made me join the choir.
07:45I don't have such a great voice.
07:47No.
07:47Well, not everyone does.
08:04You have broken heel.
08:05I carry you.
08:06Hop-ah.
08:08Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
08:09Put me down.
08:10Woo-hoo-hoo.
08:11Oh, careful.
08:12Don't get her ropes up.
08:14Over here, we have a tradition.
08:18The bridegroom carries the bride over the threshold to their new home.
08:22Make the most of it, sweetie.
08:24Might be as close as you'll get.
08:27Why would you think that?
08:30Oh, let me see.
08:32Been together, what, ten years?
08:34No ring.
08:36Well, they're swine's men, aren't they?
08:38Get pregnant, then you'll have to do the honours.
08:44Put me down.
08:46You want to get married?
08:49None of the men.
08:50In English?
08:51Of course not.
08:52Because.
08:53Why?
08:54Why do we need it?
08:55We live together.
08:56I'm ten years older than you.
08:58You don't want to marry me?
09:00Okay.
09:02Actually, I do.
09:08We're getting married.
09:12Oh, that's brilliant.
09:14Oh, it's not definite.
09:16It is definite.
09:17I will arrange as soon as possible.
09:18He's crazy.
09:19What is there to wait for?
09:21You might change your mind.
09:22I don't change my mind.
09:24It costs.
09:25I work.
09:26Oh, actually, can I speak to you about that?
09:29I don't have a dress.
09:31We both know that will be no problem.
09:39What's wrong with you, Miss Grumpy?
09:42Knackered.
09:43Nearly home.
09:45I left home.
09:47Oh, this home.
09:48You're home now.
09:50And I have a surprise for you.
09:52And you.
10:02Oh, this is for you, sweetheart.
10:26And this is for you.
10:32And look.
10:34They match.
10:36Don't you love him?
10:38He was just there, begging to be bought.
10:41Oh, take me away with you, Layla, to your beautiful new apartment.
10:44Let's make sweet music.
10:46Layla, how can you afford this?
10:48Oh, not for you to know.
10:50How else can we invite the glitterati of Glossop to our recitals and concerts and our beautiful new home?
10:56Well, I...
10:57What do you think of Froogie Woogie?
10:59Who?
10:59Oh, that's just what I call him.
11:01You can think of his real name.
11:02Oh, isn't he a darling?
11:05Is he house-trained?
11:06Oh, Mr Spoilsport, how hard can it be?
11:09You didn't have to.
11:11No.
11:12No, I didn't have to buy my favourite 18-year-old in the whole wide world a pedigree puppy.
11:18But do you know what?
11:20I wanted to.
11:21Because I want my Georgia to feel loved.
11:24And settled.
11:26And secure.
11:26After all the upset.
11:28We're a family.
11:30That's what families do.
11:35I'm...
11:49Sweetheart, just hoping to catch you.
11:51Nothing major.
11:52Just wanted to say...
11:55I miss you.
11:59I don't mean, like, come home or anything.
12:01Though, if you wanted to...
12:04I'm not saying that you should.
12:06Just for my sake.
12:08Be nice if you would give me a call.
12:10But it's fine if you don't want to.
12:12There's no pressure.
12:12I do love you, Georgie.
12:24I do love you, Georgie.
12:42Good morning.
12:44Good morning.
12:44You should still be celebrating.
12:46I know, but I have cleaning to do.
12:48I know, but I have cleaning to do.
12:48This is my job now.
12:49And they're paying you?
12:51Oh, not yet.
12:52I'm on trial.
12:54If I do well, they will pay me.
12:55Oh, Sophia, there's money in the budget for cleaning.
12:58I'm on the committee, I know.
12:59I don't mind.
13:01It's good to be of use.
13:02Now, listen.
13:03Robin, I have enormous favour to ask.
13:17It's perfect.
13:20You saved my life.
13:22Aw.
13:25If Nemanja should see...
13:26I know, it's bad luck.
13:31You're going to do it all yourself.
13:33Everything.
13:33Design, make.
13:37I was a costume designer for the theatre in my country.
13:40And here, you're a cleaner.
13:42I don't mind.
13:43You take what you can get.
13:45At home, Nemanja was an artist, and here he hands wallpaper.
13:51It's just good to be here.
13:55Great.
14:21It's so disappointing.
14:25Disappointing.
14:26I'm sorry.
14:27After everything we've done?
14:29Included you.
14:30Offered you employment.
14:31Welcomed you into the choir.
14:33Does all that count for nothing?
14:36I don't understand.
14:37Your husband.
14:38My fiancé.
14:40Well, not content of taking over my solo.
14:42He always sings Adam.
14:43I always sing Adam.
14:45Why is it just that Michael asked him so...
14:48Now, he's encroaching into my work territory.
14:51You're...
14:51Painting the church.
14:53He's put in a ludicrous quote.
14:55Totally undercut me.
14:56There's no way you can make money from that figure.
14:58He's taking the piss.
14:59I didn't realise you tendered for the job.
15:02I don't tender, laddie.
15:04I have a going rate which the church has always been happy to pay.
15:08Yeah, I've been going through the old books,
15:09and your name does crop up a hell of a lot.
15:12I've got to hand it to you, though.
15:12Some of those charges.
15:14Pretty creative.
15:15I beg your pardon?
15:17Still, it's good to share the work out, isn't it?
15:19And Nemanja's going to need the bees, wedding coming up and all.
15:22So who's going to begrudge him?
15:30How dare he?
15:38Word of advice, dear.
15:41Your husband needs to look at his priorities.
15:43See what side his tea cake's buttered.
15:46Tea?
15:46I don't understand.
15:47It would be better all around if he's simply pulled out of the job.
16:09Why don't you listen to me?
16:11What do you say to me?
16:12In English.
16:14We agreed, we live here, so now we speak only English.
16:17If you do this thing, you risk everything.
16:21Our welcome, our place here, our friends.
16:24Friends go away because I paint church.
16:26Friends go away if you make them angry.
16:29If you take away what's theirs...
16:31So it's fine.
16:31This is not theirs.
16:32They're not friends.
16:42Jake?
16:44Um, feathers have been ruffled.
16:47That's not good news.
16:48What's the problem?
16:49We couldn't afford Jabba.
16:51You can't call him that.
16:53Look, he charges double what anybody else does.
16:55I've seen the accounts.
16:56He's been screwing this parish for years.
16:59But still, it's his livelihood.
17:00Are you kidding me?
17:01Have you ever seen him pick up a paintbrush?
17:03No, but it's...
17:04That's because he pockets the fee and then pays shrapnel to guys like Nemanja to do the work for him.
17:09Okay.
17:38What are you doing?
17:40Writing.
17:41Writing.
17:41What?
17:43Words.
17:44Which?
17:45Mine.
17:47That's it.
17:54You keep me up at night, thinking, and always stop me dreaming.
18:01Because I'm watching your eyes drove me to this state of mind.
18:09Got a tune?
18:12Nearly.
18:12I'll be waiting.
18:15I'll be waiting.
18:18I'll be waiting.
18:41Mikey, so you're reading that.
18:42He might think you're intelligent.
18:44You came.
18:45Does that mean we're friends again?
18:47You said it was an emergency.
18:48It is.
18:50Sort of.
18:50I just wanted...
18:52No, you have to guess what I got in my key.
18:54I dunno.
18:55Set of balls?
18:56A baby grand.
18:58That's risky.
18:59No, it's fine.
19:00Thinks I've got a credit card addiction.
19:01And when do you plan to disabuse him?
19:04Have I never.
19:07Is that all?
19:08Can I go now?
19:09Can I buy you a coffee?
19:10No, I'm busy.
19:11I hear that.
19:13I also hear you have a little helper.
19:16Esther?
19:17Sweet.
19:19Try tough.
19:20Oh?
19:21Try decent.
19:22Honest.
19:23Killer laugh.
19:24She makes shit hot cranberry muffins.
19:26But sweet.
19:27Not.
19:28Well, that's good.
19:29Because I'd hate to see her get hurt.
19:31What?
19:32She's had a tough time lately,
19:33and I don't want you making things worse.
19:34I know what you're like.
19:35You're incredible.
19:37Hey, hey, hey, hey.
19:38Are you leaving?
19:39Secret meetings aren't my scene.
19:41We'll just tell people you're saving my soul.
19:44Have you still got one?
20:17Right.
20:18Marmite and brie on shibata.
20:21Uh, bacon and that pudding.
20:23What's it?
20:24Pickle.
20:25What?
20:26What?
20:26What?
20:26What's she doing?
20:29Oh, sacrilege.
20:30He never lets you touch the guitars.
20:32You get kneecaps if you accidentally sit on one of his plentrums.

21:14Not as in actually met, but I know him.
21:18In here.
21:20It's like we're brothers.
21:22No, it's...

21:46and they formed Blink 182.
21:47And at the first gig they were underage and they couldn't drink.
21:50And this guy came over and he said...
21:55What?
21:57You could sit and examine him.
21:59Wish someone would learn me like that.
22:00I'll learn you.
22:04Go on.

22:30Do you know what that means?
22:31You, me and Tom.
22:32We're the same.
22:32No, he's American and a boy.
22:34But what's good, if you had an attack and you were with him,
22:37you could lend his inhaler.
22:38Cool.
22:49Real.
22:54Oh!
22:55Nigella.
23:03Brand new.
23:06Let's hope his Mastercard can take the strain.
23:08I have no sympathy.
23:12Male menopausal philandering.
23:15Quite beastly.
23:21We were just admiring your lovely house.
23:24Oh, don't call it that.
23:25Call it a home.
23:26That's what I want it to feel like.
23:29Any luck on the job hunting front?
23:31Oh, I'm not looking.
23:33Oh, didn't Mikey say?
23:34I've put my career on hold.
23:36Mikey needs me here,
23:37and so do the children.
23:39To provide a stable environment
23:41after everything that they've been through.
23:43Well, you've only got Georgia.
23:45Up until now, but...
23:47Obviously, Mikey wants all three kids with us,
23:49and once we start a family...
23:51That's on the cards, is it?
23:54Oh, yes.
23:57Oh, and you meet that special someone,
23:59you...
24:00you want to create a family of your own.
24:03Something you can belong to.
24:05Yes.
24:07And feel part of?
24:08Exactly.
24:11I love that you came to visit.
24:13We think it's important.
24:15A pastoral duty.
24:17Bringing newcomers into the fold.
24:19Otherwise, where would they be?
24:21Out in the cold.
24:23The cold.
24:24Yeah.
24:25And in return, we expect...
24:28How can I put it?
24:30A certain loyalty.
24:34Of course.
24:35A willingness to stand on...
24:37Open be counted.
24:40To declare which side we're on.
24:43And to take steps accordingly.
24:46No, no, no, no.
25:11It must be so tricky for you.
25:14What?
25:15Nemanja, being so stubborn.
25:17Oh, well, I...
25:19Of course, it's not too late for him to change his mind.
25:21Surely he's entitled to tender for work.
25:24Oh, yes, yes.
25:25But if it treads on people's toes, you know?
25:28People who were here first.
25:30I appreciate that.
25:33OK.
25:36Oh, gosh.
25:38Still quite a few.
25:40What?
25:41In the choir, hanging on,
25:42despite what Michael said about making alternative arrangements.
25:45Oh, you mean leaving?
25:46Only those who aren't quite up to scratch.
25:48He didn't mention any names.
25:50Oh, no.
25:51No, he wouldn't.
25:52He's way too sensitive.
25:55I think he just expected people to know.
25:59Did he mean me, then?
26:01Well, why would he mean you?
26:02You have a lovely voice.
26:04Doesn't she?
26:05As I say, I think Michael trusts people to know their limitations.
26:10Well, it's true.
26:11I don't read music.
26:12Lots of people don't.
26:13And sometimes it's a struggle to keep up.
26:15And there's nothing worse, is there, than feeling out of your depth.
26:18You think I should leave?
26:20She's fine.
26:22She's staying.
26:25She's comfortable with the choir.
26:27So am I.
26:28We're both staying.
26:32Good.
26:53You zip me up.
26:56must I
27:00so you've heard about the Radich wedding
27:03the music they've requested
27:05no
27:06which
27:07it would be fine if we had no standards whatsoever
27:11what are they asked for
27:12and it's not as if you haven't made it
27:14absolutely clear what standards we're setting
27:16ourselves in repertoire as well as
27:18ability
27:20the highest
27:21absolutely
27:23in other words
27:24classical
27:25of course
27:26so maybe someone ought to have a quiet word with them
27:29and remind them how we do things around here
27:39wow
27:41great job
27:45I studied four years at
27:46Novi Sad Academy of Arts
27:48oh it shows
27:51so
27:54Houston we have a problem
27:58the music you've asked us to sing at your wedding
28:01bit of an issue
28:03not sure we're going to be able to deliver
28:06well because
28:06I think they call it musical differences
28:13it's your choice of music
28:15it's not the sort of thing we usually
28:19do
28:21kind of an odd combination
28:23of what?
28:24well dare I say it
28:25the inappropriate
28:27and
28:27well the overambitious
28:30so you're saying
28:31so you're saying you're not up to it
28:32no
28:34I'm saying
28:35we're a classical choir
28:37and some of our members may feel
28:41will feel
28:43that it's not in keeping with our standards
28:46or traditions
29:06I don't think we're going to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able
29:07to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be
29:07able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to

29:09to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to
29:25In English.
29:29This is you.
29:31This is your fault.
29:32Our wedding will be ruined if we can't have the choir.
29:35You should have listened to me.
29:37You should have let them have that stupid job.
29:39This is not about me.
29:40It's about them.
29:42It's about their little cliques.
29:43They're still closed minds.
29:46I've heard.
29:48I'm not impressed.
29:50Oh, no.
29:51It's fine.
29:52Really.
29:53We understand.
29:54Michael is probably so busy he doesn't have a time to...
29:58Please don't do anything.
30:00Please don't make a fuss.
30:02We don't want to...
30:03What?
30:05Antagonise anyone.
30:06Oh!
30:07Oi!
30:16And did you hear what they wanted us to sing?
30:18Well, actually, I do quite like...
30:20It's a question of standards, Louise.
30:23If we stooped a compromise, if we agree to sing any old piece of American rubbish...
30:28Oh, is that the issue?
30:30The fact that it's...
30:31American?
30:31Well, it's one of the issues.
30:33A country barely 200 years old.
30:36Hello!
30:36Come back when you've got a culture.
30:38The issue is we're a classical choir.
30:42We have traditions.
30:43Something these newcomers obviously don't appreciate.
30:46I think what we're saying is, by all means, come here.
30:50Yes.
30:50But if you want to be part of our set-up, you need to abide by our rules.
30:54To say the least.
30:56Respect our values.
30:58Now leave your own quaint ideas at home.
31:00Cheers.
31:00Cheers.
31:03Cheers.
31:34We don't have to go through with it.
31:41The wedding.
31:48Then we wouldn't need the money.
31:51And you could let Mr. Tongs paint the church.
32:08What the eff is that?
32:10She bought it, me.
32:12Do you want it?
32:13On a kebab with extra ketchup.
32:16When you're coming up?
32:17When you're coming home.
32:20Miss me?
32:22As if.
32:23Miss me?
32:25Well, her and dad take care of a sad twat factor, so, no, I don't miss your inane or whatever's.
32:33Plus, it's good to live somewhere that don't stink a jockstrap and fungal toe infection.
32:39Actually, yeah.
32:40I do sometimes miss booting the crap out of you.
32:43Swivel.
32:44Oh, come up sometime.
32:46Just don't sit still too long.
32:47She'll paint you white.
32:50How's mum?
32:51Same as.
32:55Shit, this, innit?
32:56Yeah.
33:20Maya, then the sword.
33:28The pen.
33:31Get it?
33:37Tom had a girlfriend.
33:39Did he?
33:40Jen.
33:41Jennifer.
33:42Met her at a party.
33:44Now she's not his girlfriend, now she's his wife.
33:46They got married and had kids.
33:48Ava, Elizabeth and Jonas Rocket.
33:50And they've got a dog called Grey and they live in Rancho Santa Fe.
33:52Don't you have a girlfriend?
33:54Don't go to parties.
33:57Parties are loud and parties are noisy and the people are weird.
34:01You can get a girlfriend without going to a party.
34:03You can get a girlfriend without going to a party.
34:06Can you?
34:08How?
34:10You just ask someone.
34:14Oh.
34:16Okay.
34:22What are you writing?
34:24The pen.
34:27The mightier.
34:30And the sword.
34:36Anyone come in here while I was away?
34:39Just us.
34:40Something wrong.
34:41My brushes were here.
34:43Now they're not here.
34:45Maybe I just imagine it.
34:47Maybe I did too.
34:48My skateboard walked.
34:50This is a joke.
34:51Nope.
34:52Had a skateboard, left it in the church.
34:53Now it's gone.
34:55You mean...
34:56Huh.
34:57Deliberately.
34:57Accidental.
34:58Theft of a skateboard.
34:59It could be.
35:00I could mention it.
35:02Stuff going missing at the committee meeting.
35:03You still put yourself through that shit.
35:05Jay.
35:05Grand High Witch Tonks and our gang of familiars.
35:08I think it matters the work we do.
35:10Standing shoulder to shoulder through thick and thin.
35:12Baw.
35:13I've read the mission statement.
35:15And what was my favourite bit?
35:16Holding a something?
35:18Holding a space for people who want coping.
35:21Who came up with that bullshit?
35:23What does it even mean?
35:25It means jack shit.
35:27Well, your English is improving.
35:29I should go.
35:32Don't trip over any broomsticks.
35:34Thanks.
36:05My imagination is powerful, yes?
36:15Item four.
36:16Proposal of new member.
36:19In accordance with the rules, the putative member remains anonymous and must submit a personal statement
36:23outlining the reasons why they want to join the committee.
36:26I have here that statement.
36:31Ladies of the committee, thank you for giving me the opportunity to address you.
36:37I ask you to imagine yourselves far from home, a newcomer in a strange town, hoping to find acceptance, looking
36:49for something to be part of, wanting to contribute in a meaningful way.
36:56What skills I have, I place at your disposal, for I believe it is only through sheer hard work that
37:03I will earn the right to belong here.
37:07I would love the chance to show what I can do.
37:10I ask nothing for myself, except to be of service.
37:17Beautifully expressed.
37:19Very touching.
37:21Sign her up, give her all crap jobs.
37:28So if there are no objections, I'll invite the applicant to come in and tell us in person why she'd
37:33like to join our ranks.
38:05Thank you for even considering me.
38:10I don't really know where to start.
38:14I feel I have a lot to give and and take your time, dear.
38:26Well, I just, I feel so envious, to be honest, of all of you.
38:33You have roots and families and you belong here and I feel like such an outsider.
38:43Feel free to question the applicant.
38:49What do you feel you could contribute?
38:52Um, what would you say your special qualities are?
38:56Um, oh, I don't, I'm not sure that, I suppose I don't really think of myself as special.
39:07I just want to give something back to the people who've made me feel so welcome.
39:12But I, I, I totally understand if that's not enough.
39:17Shall we put it to the vote?
39:20All those in favour?
39:37I don't know how to begin to thank you.
39:39No need.
39:40If we stand for inclusivity, it's in our manifesto.
39:44But under the circumstances?
39:45Oh, I vote as a committee member, not an ex-wife.
39:49I just want to say, I feel really bad about what Michael did.
39:55Not that it's my responsibility, but I want you to know I feel bad.
40:00Got it.
40:00On the plus side, I think it's really changed him as a person.
40:05I mean, for the better.
40:06Is that right?
40:06He's become so much more considerate since he's been with me, which is good, isn't it?
40:12Oh, and, and, um, sad, too, obviously.
40:15I mean, for you, that it couldn't have happened when you were together.
40:18But, um, maybe that's what it took, you know, for him to grow.
40:24Yes, maybe.
40:27What do you, what do you think of Jake?
40:29He's cute, isn't he?
40:31Do you think he has a girlfriend?
40:32I've no idea.
40:34Oh, I bet he does.
40:35How could he not?
40:35He must have women falling all over themselves.
40:38Those eyes.
40:39Oh, I bet he's left a trail of broken hearts behind him.
40:42Quite possibly.
40:43Lock up your daughters, eh?
40:47How is my daughter?
40:48Oh, God, she's gorgeous.
40:51Really settled at hours.
40:53We're like sisters.
40:54Are you really?
40:56Does Jake ever mention me?
40:59No.
41:00Why would he?
41:01Well, he is my sort of spiritual mentor.
41:05Then I assume he'd keep confidentiality.
41:08Job, job, ladies.
41:10Time, martreth.
41:13Can we return to the table?
41:16We look forward to inaugurating you at our next meeting.
41:38Any other business?
41:40Just the question of Sophia's wages.
41:43For some reason, they haven't come through.
41:46Obviously, it's an oversight, because otherwise it could look like we're deliberately taking advantage, which clearly we wouldn't dream of
41:51doing.
41:54Anything else?
41:56There's been a floral request.
41:58Could the altar flowers be used for a wedding on the previous Saturday?
42:01Well, I think we've allowed this before, haven't we?
42:03Is it the Langridge-Platt wedding?
42:06I'd have thought old Langridge could afford to tip up handsomely.
42:08It's the Radich wedding.
42:10Sophia and Nemanja.
42:12Oh.
42:13No.
42:14No.
42:14I think not.
42:16Unhelpful precedent.
42:17In what way?
42:18I suppose if everyone thought they could pull a freebie.
42:21Well, it's no skin off our noses.
42:24Still, I think we have to take a stand.
42:26What stand?
42:27Otherwise, we'd have all sorts of freeloaders rolling up.
42:30Hands out.
42:31Well, I think we should put it to the vote.
42:34Very well.
42:37Those against.
42:39Those for.
42:42Request declined.
42:44No, I really feel...
42:45Sorry.
42:46We're pushed for time.
42:48Meeting closed.
43:01Sophia, can I have a word?
43:04It's about the flowers we've been with.
43:09We've hit a snack.
43:11Regrettable, of course.
43:12But we've put it to the vote and everyone agreed.
43:18I understand.
43:19And personally, I deplore this obsession with gaudy, nuptial arrangements.
43:23Bare simplicity is far more elegant.
43:27No.
43:28You're right.
43:30Far more.
43:31Mom, I really terrific.
43:33Mom.
43:35Here we go.
43:44Come on.
43:47Come on.
43:48I'm going to go.

54:54Michael!
54:57You're not going in, surely?
54:59I, er, just dropped by to pick up some music.
55:09Turning the House of the Lord into a party venue.
55:12That's quite an achievement.
55:15Yeah, I thought so.
55:22Where do you think you're going?
55:24Well, they said everyone welcome.
55:26We're boycotting it.
55:28Oh, but I've made taught Napoleon.
55:30It's a traditional Russian dessert.
55:32They're Serbian.
55:33Louise, remember yourself.
