Rivals Season 1 Episode 1
Transcript
00:10You
00:36This is your captain speaking. Keep your eyes on the board. We're about to go supersonic.
01:01Oh! Oh! Oh!
01:17Did we break the sound barrier?
01:20Sorry, Mr. Camper Black. I didn't know it was you in there.
01:32You can't breathe. Running at a different speed. Your heart beats. Double time. Another kiss.
01:47Enjoying your flight, Rupert?
01:49Tony Battingham.
01:51Do you know B.T. Johnson from The Scorpion?
01:54Oh, no. But I hear great things.
01:56Did the Prime Minister give you permission to fuck a journalist in the on-board toilet?
02:01Lou, Tony, don't be plebeian. B.T.'s ghosting my memoirs. Now I believe in laying one's ghost.
02:07Oh, B.T., what's your angle?
02:09Champion show jumper put out to pasture. Now a powerless backbench politician, casting round for his next hobby.
02:16Never quite achieving the success he once had.
02:20What are you doing in New York? Whoring yourself around advertisers?
02:23You know if you don't start spending some of that fortune you're coining on making decent television, you're going to
02:28lose your business.
02:29Very much in hand. Just recruited a hot-shit young producer.
02:33Who?
02:33Mm. Cameron Cook.
02:36Never heard of him.
02:38You will. Desperate to work for Cronium. Bit my hand off of her.
02:43Hope it didn't bleed on your nice suit.
02:47We'll be when we head back, too.
02:49What?
03:16You gonna get back, too?
03:19Oh, oh, oh.
03:49Drug use. Pornography. Easier divorce. Rampant. Homosexuality.
03:53Recent studies have shown that HIV isn't exclusively a homosexual disease, Deputy Prime Minister.
03:59Oh, but loveless rutting.
04:01The promiscuous encounters that characterize a Saturday night in Soho, those are the preconditions for this virus, which threatens...
04:08The precondition, Deputy Prime Minister, is the Victorian conservatism of the Tory government, which is narrow-minded, hypocritical, and quite
04:15frankly, cruel.
04:16And cut there. Thank you. Ready to go again.
04:19He can say gay sex is loveless rutting, but I can't make a small comment about the government.
04:23BBC editorial policy, Declan. Sorry, Deputy Prime Minister.
04:27We're going again.
04:28Cue Declan.
04:32Mr Stratton, yourself and Mrs Stratton have been married, what, 15 years?
04:3715 in April.
04:38Yeah, three children, a wife, a mistress, and an all-consuming job. It must be difficult to juggle everything.
04:46What?
04:47Although your wife, Winifred, has been staying at her family's Pimbleco apartment, which must have made it easier for you
04:52to spend time with your, uh...
04:5429-year-old secretary, Miss Sarah Price, who proudly told our researchers that you have the girth and stamina to
05:02compete with any championship racehorse.
05:04Is that a fair comment to make, sir?
05:05Aye, uh, well, the...
05:07CUT! CUT!
05:08I would look to your own glass house, Deputy Prime Minister, before you start throwing rocks at others.
05:13Look, Declan, if we could just do another take without the slant...
05:15CUT! CUT! CUT! CUT! CUT! CUT!
05:48I don't know whose bloomers are more of a twist tonight, aren't they, to the Prime Minister's?
05:52We both know that the BBC won't show tonight's episode.
05:55I've said it before, Lord Bandingham, I'm happy here.
05:58And I'm not interested in commercial television.
06:01PHONE RINGS
06:02Oh.
06:04PHONE RINGS
06:05Director-General calling, save it a naughty boy.
06:10PHONE RINGS
06:10PHONE RINGS
06:20I'm offering you freedom.
06:22I saw your interview with Reagan. I bet they hacked out some corkers.
06:27We'd put you out live.
06:31Live?
06:32Complete editorial control.
06:35The skew of the bastards on air is halfway around the world before anyone's got a chance
06:38to complain.
06:40The satellite's coming.
06:42We're going global.
06:44It's exciting.
06:47You're stuck here with a load of librarians.
06:51When you could be an astronaut.
06:58I'd have to persuade Maude.
07:02Massive house from the country, she'd love it.
07:04It's a Wicklow man like you doing it in Fulham.
07:07Dodging litter and dog shit.
07:08Come to the Coswolds.
07:11Even I have to win sometimes.
07:12I'll fucking pretty the place is.
07:20A little signing bonus.
07:22Declan, come on.
07:24You're being paid peanuts to get bloodless interviews with one hand tied behind your back.
07:29It's the golden age of television.
07:32You're missing the game.
07:35It's the golden age of television.
07:35It's the golden age of television.
07:37It's the golden age of television.

07:57It's the golden age of television.
07:59It's the golden age of television.
08:01It's the golden age of television.
08:34And hit me like a ton of lead
08:37If I blow my tongue
08:40Daddy's hand
08:41Will you let it go in your head?
08:45Give me all your loving
08:47All your hugs and kisses too
08:53Give me all your loving
08:55Don't let it come to a fool
09:05Hello darling
09:06How was your day?
09:07Extremely successful
09:09Sorry I landed on you again
09:10Yes, we do have other ones

09:53Look, we're here
09:58Oh my God
10:22Exciting things are gonna happen to us in a place like this
10:24Amazing
10:27Racial gold
10:28That's the best room
10:29Absolutely not
10:30The prettiest prison I ever saw
10:50Why don't they do so so

11:07Jehovah's Witness
11:08Oh, fuck, she's seen us
11:10Oh, you'll have to go down
11:13What? Why me?
11:14I'm on the lookout
11:15What?
11:15For him?
11:16Oh, God
11:16Soviet officials have announced that 79 bodies have been recovered and nearly 320 people are missing
11:26After a Soviet cruise ship sank
11:28Door!
11:31Hello
11:31I just wanted to welcome you to...
11:33Oh, Dad, it's a good story
11:34No, no, thank you
11:36We're not on the best of terms with Jehovah in this house
11:40Daddy just shut the door
11:41Oh, it's not mine
11:42I found it on a lawn
11:44New English
11:44Is it the New English Bible?
11:47Yes
11:47Daddy says it's a literary abomination
11:49He must have thrown it out the window
11:51I'm Lizzie
11:52I live down the valley
11:53I bought you a bottle of some eggs
11:56We'll open this now
11:57Okay
11:59Come on in
12:01We haven't found the wine glasses yet
12:04Turn us to second post here
12:06Oh, there isn't a second post
12:08Taggy lost her virginity this summer to one of her son Patrick's university friends
12:12He's in the south of France right now and not writing many postcards
12:16Mummy
12:16Oh, it must be so lonely for Rupert now he's not show jumping
12:19And the only thing that persuaded Caitlin to leave all her friends in London
12:22Was the thought of living opposite Rupert Campbell Black
12:25I want him to ravish me
12:27He's a middle-aged MP, Caitlin
12:29Well, I'm so cross
12:30I'm off to boarding school and won't get a first crack at him
12:32He's bountiful for taggy
12:33Or even Mummy
12:34How well do you know him?
12:36Oh, I'm not sure anyone really knows Rupert
12:38But we're friends
12:40So not carnally then?
12:42I'm one of the few women around here who hasn't been ravished by Rupert
12:45Is your husband Fiercely Protective
12:47Mm-hmm
12:49Oh, that's my novel
12:52I wrote it
12:53Have you read it?
12:54Oh, no, Taggy doesn't read
12:56She's dyslexic
12:57For a long time we thought she was retarded
12:59Oh, he took what he wanted
13:01I loved this
13:03Talk about getting ravished
13:04Isn't there a very naughty bit with some dock leaves?
13:09Oh
13:13Yeah, the fight is quite old
13:15Have you got another one coming out?
13:16Well, what with the children and my husband
13:18I don't find much time to write nowadays
13:20Bag, Vanita shirt
13:22And some fucking socks
13:25Oh, Daddy, that's Lizzie
13:26I live just down the valley
13:28She writes dirty books
13:29Nice to meet you, Caitlin
13:30You're wearing my socks
13:31Well, they're warmer than tight
13:32Sorry, still unpacking
13:33Thanks, love
13:34How easy is it to find help, aren't you?
13:36We are not forking out for a cleaner
13:38Well, stealing a woman's help around here
13:41Is worse than stealing her husband
13:42What if you stole both?
13:47That's Grant, Tag
13:48Right, I am going to buy
13:5030 pairs of socks
13:51In such a disgusting colour
13:53That none of you will ever pinch them again
13:55Nice to meet you, Lizzie
13:56Good luck, Daddy
13:57Give them help
13:57Yeah
13:58All right, let's get smashed
14:00Whew
14:01Welcome to Racha
14:13A man walks down the street
14:14He says
14:15Why am I soft in the middle now
14:16Why am I soft in the middle
14:18The rest of my life is so hard
14:20I need a photo opportunity
14:22I want a shot of redemption
14:24Don't want to end up a cartoon
14:26In a cartoon graveyard
14:27Bone-digger, bone-digger
14:29Get these months away from me, you know
14:31I don't find this stuff on music anymore
14:35If you be my bodyguard
14:37I can be your long, long time out
14:42I can call you Betty
14:44Betty, when you call me
14:46You can call me out
14:50A man walks down the street
14:52He says
14:52Why am I short of attention?
14:54Got a short little span of attention
14:56Oh, my nights are so long
14:58Where's my wife and family?
14:59What if I die here?
15:01Who'll be my role model?
15:03Now that my role model is gone
15:05Gone
15:06You duck back down the alley
15:08With some roly-poly little bat-faced girl
15:11All along, along
15:14There were incidents and accidents
15:16There were hints and allegations
15:20If you'd be my bodyguard
15:34Just a man of the people
15:36Don't be jealous, James
15:37At least he won't steal your sunbed
15:39He's tall, isn't he?
15:40Standing next to a very short car
15:42I saw him in Pensken
15:43I think he looks a lot older in the flesh
15:45Thank you, Deirdre
15:46Who's producing him?
15:47Cameron
15:47It's factual, not drama
15:49Why does Cameron get all the good stuff?
15:50I really can't think
15:53Declan, how much are they paying you?
15:55Why'd you leave the BBC, Declan?
15:56Come on, Declan, give us a smile
15:57All right, all right, thanks, lads
15:59That's your last
15:59Give me the frock out of it
16:01This way?
16:02You've got the paddy among the pigeons, haven't you?
16:04Who says no blacks, no Irish?
16:05I'm a one-man
16:06Equal opportunities revolution, Ginger
16:09What's that point?
16:12I'm a journalist, not a celebrity
16:14I ask the questions
16:16It's Declan, you're higher
16:20Where the fuck is this Cameron guy
16:23I'm supposed to report to?
16:24Jesus, you don't just ambush someone
16:26I'm a serious fucking journalist
16:29I don't discuss my career with the Scorpion
16:32Shit, shut up
16:36Come in
16:43Where is he?
16:47Take a seat, Declan
16:51What, you're...
16:52Cameron Cook
16:55You were expecting a man
16:57Possibly queer, which you would have endured
16:59But certainly not a woman
17:00And God forbid a black one
17:02I thought you were a publicity girl
17:03No, I'm a producery woman
17:05Listen, I'm not...
17:07Prejudice? Of course not
17:08You're an asshole to everyone
17:10This isn't going to work, Tony
17:12It's not a chat show
17:13It's a serious program
17:14I want to produce a serious program too
17:16But there are ways of running the audience
17:17Oh, we're calling up on a sofa with cushions
17:19You've seen the set design, then
17:20I know my audience, Tony
17:23A fucking sofa
17:24You might listen to Cameron
17:25NBC howled when I poached her
17:27Oh
17:28Do you know Charles Fairbent
17:29Controller of Programs?
17:31Declan
17:33We knew each other at the beam
17:34Look, um...
17:35Fatter
17:36I don't miss the canteen at the BBC, darling
17:38And gingerbread
17:39Head of Operations
17:43I'm sorry, Tony
17:44I produce myself
17:46I've got Johnny Friedlander flying over
17:48For your first interview
17:49Johnny Friedlander, the film star
17:50No, Johnny Friedlander, my Dennis
17:52I don't interview actors
17:54Friedlander doesn't give interviews
17:55Not since the sex tape
17:56They're saying he could be the next Bond
17:58They'll have trouble replacing Roger
18:00I've been speaking to Jackie Kennedy
18:01She'll just blabber on about her old boring publishing job
18:04No, she wants to talk about life
18:06As a single American woman, actually
18:08You could learn something, Cameron
18:10Look, you two log horns if it turns you on
18:12But don't forget
18:12I hired you both because you can get ratings
18:15So let's pull together and get them, yes?
18:17The BBC have put top of the pops against us in the schedule
18:21So you need to be more popular than Jimmy Savile
18:23Johnny Friedlander is a global megastar
18:25And he hasn't given an interview in five years
18:26People will watch this
18:28Book Jackie for the next one
18:37Okay, fine
18:39But I do my own research
18:42And no fucking sofa
18:46Give him whatever fucking furniture he wants, all right?
18:48We all know it's not about the sofa
18:49I don't need this shit, Tony
18:50You brought me here to produce drama
18:52Not a chat show
18:53I brought you here to be the cleverest person in the building
18:56And terrify the rest of them into pulling their socks up
18:58So far, so good
18:58You're a lion in a petting zoo
19:00But we need big game like Declan
19:02To convince the IBA to renew our contract
19:04We lose the franchise
19:06There won't be any drama to produce
19:07You'll be on the next boat back
19:11I didn't come here on a boat
19:13Forgive me, semantics
19:14I flew here on fucking Concord
19:17I paid for the ticket
19:20Worth every penny
19:39It's gorgeous
19:40Yes
19:41There are badger's heads up at the top there
19:44And in spring, the bluebells flame between the beach trees
19:48Like little funts and burners
19:51Sorry, I sound like an estate agent
19:52I just can't believe this is all ours
19:54Well, only to the bottom of the wood
19:56And then Rupert will have you for trespassing
19:58Thank you for walking me back
20:03I'm really quite pissed
20:08It's like Rupert's back home
20:11Caitlin will be scaling the wall
20:13Caitlin's all talk
20:14She's sworn off and married until she's at least 35
20:16I've got too much to do, she says
20:19And you?
20:21With parents like yours, you must have big plans
20:24Oh, I'd like to be a cook
20:26Following recipes and writing things down
20:28I don't know what to do with myself, really
20:31How old are you? 19?
20:3220
20:34Your whole life ahead of you
20:37It's 1986
20:39You can have whatever you want
20:42So Cosmo tells us
20:48Back into battle
20:50How many children do you have?
20:52Two
20:52Three, counting my husband
20:54He works for Corineum too
20:56You didn't say?
20:57I talk about my husband as little as possible
21:00He does enough of that himself
21:04I'm gonna get you
21:11I'm gonna get you
21:14You can't catch me
21:15Hello?
21:17What's going on?
21:34Oh my god
21:35There's fire
21:36Oh there's fire!
21:48Oh come on
21:50Oh come on
21:58Oh come on
22:13Fire!
22:17Fire!
22:19Fire!
22:21Tenfold
22:22Potentially six inches over the line
22:24Well you can't fall then
22:25You're at ten inches over the line
22:27Ah! Ah! Ah!
22:31Um...
22:33Don't be shy, darling.
22:36Your fields are on fire.
22:39And...
22:40it's the quickest way to get rid of the stubble after the harvest?
22:43Could you, um...
22:45So you separated them on purpose?
22:47Sorry.
22:49Who the fuck are you and why are you here?
22:51What about the animals? The rabbits and voles and birds?
22:53Yes, and the lovely ickle earwigs.
22:55Should I stop ploughing my fields because it's cool to woodland?
22:57You're murdering them.
22:58Do you want me to give them a state funeral?
23:03What the hell?
23:05I called the fire brigade.
23:09Get off my land before I call the police as well
23:12and take that brute back to its pigsty!
23:16You are utterly...
23:22abhorrent!
23:28Well, I was born an original sinner
23:32I was born from original sin
23:36And if I had a dollar bill
23:38For all the things I've done
23:40There'd be a mountain of money piled up to my chin
23:43Gentlemen, you ordered a full-bodied Argentinian.
23:46And the wine, Basil.
23:47Yes.
23:48Have you tried this one before?
23:49Oh, it's very, very nice
23:51I'm assuming we're on expenses
23:53Baz enjoys helping you spend corinneal money
23:56I do
23:57Oh, wonderful
23:59Now, I must say
24:00I loved your coverage of the royal wedding, Charles
24:02Thank you, Baz
24:03Andrew and Fergie are a modern-day fairytale
24:06Well, you know what they say about rare chance
24:08Enjoy, champs
24:10That's Tony's brother
24:11Half-brother
24:12He got a good half
24:14The mother had a scandalous fling with an Argentinian polo player
24:17That's always the result
24:19Baz was always the favourite with daddy
24:21Despite his dubious origins
24:24And poor Tony just never managed to catch up
24:27Is he all a grudge?
24:28Tony, darling, he cultivates them like rare orcas
24:31Artists, Tony cultivates artists
24:34You're in safe hands
24:35We're so lucky to have such a strong leader at the helm
24:38Hello, Archie
24:39I'll have the..
24:43Liver and marmalade
24:44Panel radicchio salad
24:46And for you, sir?
24:47Steak
24:48Still mooing
24:57Tony's son
24:58Working here for the summer holidays
25:00Teaching his children the value of money
25:02Tell me, is Cameron cook as big a bitch as she seems?
25:07She is a genius.
25:12So we ripped up the treatment,
25:14aged all the characters down 10 years
25:16and gave them some desire.
25:18The men were all dickless.
25:20So I said to Tony,
25:21our audience wants to fantasize
25:23about being banged over the sink
25:25while doing the dishes.
25:26And four men went to mow.
25:28It's now the top-rated network drama of the year.
25:31Looking good, boys.
25:32I smell like Sunday lunch.
25:34You look delicious.
25:35Everybody, this is Lady Gosling,
25:36chairwoman of the Independent Broadcasting Authority.
25:39Best behavior, everyone.
25:42And this is the Declan set.
25:44Yes, very impressive.
25:45You're rather impressive, aren't you?
25:48Where did Tony find you?
25:50New York.
25:51Ah, August 26, 1970.
25:54I marched with Gloria Steinem
25:56on the women's strike for equality.
25:58My mom was on that march.
26:01Don't iron while the strike is hot.
26:04I think you'll be pleased with the efforts
26:06we've made to address your concern.
26:07I am not your Barbie doll.
26:11And Declan O'Hara's presence on the Carinium team,
26:13it just nudges that political dial leftwards.
26:16And the board.
26:17If you want to hang on to your franchise,
26:19then Carinium's board needs strengthening.
26:21Well...
26:22Have you thought of Rupert Campbell Black?
26:26Rupert's presence would give you legitimacy, Anthony.
26:30I don't like taking people's franchises away,
26:32but Rupert would give Carinium real sparkle.
26:35I want to be convinced that I'm backing the right horse.
26:39Tell me more about your mama.
26:51I mean...
26:53They don't tell you when you leave the BBC.
26:55Yes, there's a lot more money in independent television,
26:58but you're going up against 14 other regional companies
27:01just like you.
27:03And then there's franchise renewal.
27:05But that's, what, once every five years?
27:06Yeah, but the anxiety is constant
27:08because some other company can just waltz in
27:10and take your franchise away.
27:13We may not have had biscuits at the BBC,
27:15but all we had to do was make television.
27:18Do you think I made the wrong move?
27:20Oh, no.
27:21Granada have Coronation Street,
27:23LWT has Blind Date,
27:25Carinium now has you.
27:27You're the Golden Goose, darling.
27:29Say it back and let Tony fucking fatten you up.
27:33The foie gras is divine here, by the way.
28:02I wish I was coming too.
28:03I've only been invited so I can drag Marie and Daddy home
28:05when they're drunk.
28:06Oh, you've already met Rupert.
28:07It's not fair.
28:09He's always Willie.
28:10He's vile.
28:11Oh, that journalist is so lucky to be shagging him.
28:15What are you looking for?
28:16Oh, it's a bright blue Minnie.
28:20Do you think it's going to happen again?
28:22What?
28:23Mummy.
28:28Now we're here, I quite want to stay.
28:30Taggy!
28:32Oh, let's go.
28:36What?
28:37You're wearing Taggy's dress?
28:39Uh, I wore this to Bono's Christmas party.
28:41It was mine then, too.
28:42Oh, you're so touchy these days.
28:44Look, we are going to go and meet the most wonderful people this afternoon.
28:48I'm excited.
28:52Leaving London's going to be good for her and Daddy, isn't it?
28:56It will be.
28:58I'll be okay.
29:00I promise.
29:16Vernon will meet me when the poor act lands.
29:20Keys to the MG will be in his hands.
29:24Adjust to the driving and I'm on my way.
29:28All on the right side of Montego Bay.
29:34Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
29:38Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
29:42Come sing me love.
29:44Come sing me Montego Bay.
29:48Well done, darling.
29:50Great turnout again, I must say.
29:53As I've told them to up the proportion of orange juice in the Bucksville, don't everyone plastered like last year.
29:59No.
30:01So, which one is what you want for your board?
30:03Is it the electronics millionaire chap?
30:05Freddie Jones.
30:06Over there with a touch.
30:09I'll get him onto satellite technology.
30:11You can ask her if she's made any friends in the area yet.
30:13She's opened a boutique in Colchester, so you should offer to pop me in and buy something.
30:20Hmm.
30:22Is Miss Cook coming?
30:25Couldn't drag her away from the studio.
30:28Declan goes live in a matter of days.
30:30And here's our star.
30:36Ah.
30:38Even more beautiful in the flesh, Mrs. O'Hara.
30:42Declan.
30:42Tony.
30:43We're so glad you're here.
30:44Everyone's dying to meet some new people.
30:46We're all very bored of each other.
30:48The Maud O'Hara.
30:50My favourite actress, Bess.
30:52The better baddie.
30:54If you say so.
30:56So please, you can make it, Basil.
30:57Declan, let me show you off to some board members.
30:59Why don't we get you a drink?
31:02You were wonderful, Mrs. Lady Macbeth.
31:05Hmm.
31:17Not going to Lord B's party.
31:19I turned Tony down.
31:21Not my kind of crowd.
31:22Is that the only reason?
31:25What other reason would there be?
31:29I want your opinion.
31:30I'm not paid to have opinions.
31:33Now, I agreed to ditch the sofa, but why a desk?
31:35It's not a news anchor.
31:37Perhaps he wants to hide behind it.
31:39Huh.
31:40It's not because he hasn't got good legs.
31:42I've looked.
31:44Hmm.
31:46Steve, move the desk off the set for a minute.
31:49Declan asked for the desk.
31:50Yeah, I want to see it without the desk.
31:51It's just we built the desk.
31:52I'm not telling you to burn a damn thing.
31:54I'm telling you to move it so I can see the set.
31:55Can you do that?
31:56All right.
31:57Keep your way going.
31:59That's funny.
32:01You know what isn't funny?
32:03Looking for another fucking job.
32:08You see it?
32:15It's better.
32:16See?
32:17It's better.
32:29Rupert's arrived.
32:34Really?
32:35That's Gerald.
32:37Rupert's aide.
32:38We go way back.
32:41Where's your gorgeous Lord of Martha?
32:43He's not here.
32:44Oh, damn it.
32:45I have a pile of papers for him to sign it.
32:46I can only pin him down at parties.
32:48You can pin me down later if he likes.
32:54Follow-up on.
32:56Actually, I think I might just...
32:59Lizzie.
33:01Lizzie.
33:03Um, I think my mum wants you.
33:06He doesn't want me.
33:07That's my husband.
33:10That's all.
33:31Thank you, darling.
33:32I feel like I should be reading the news.
33:34Um, fortunately, we have the wonderful James Verica to do that instead.
33:39Um, now, I won't keep you from your lunch, uh, but I'm very glad to have you all here to
33:44celebrate Carinium's newest star with me.
33:47Ladies and gentlemen, Declan O'Hara.
33:49CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
33:55Declan joins Carinium, of course, on the crest of a wave.
33:58Uh, wonderful ratings for our prestige drama Four Men Went to Mow.
34:03Who knew arable farming could be so sexy?
34:06Uh, and with revenue from our sales to America, we are confident that this is going to be our
34:13most successful autumn ever.
34:16LAUGHTER
34:17Jumped over six for a grown man.
34:20LAUGHTER
34:26Oh, my God, it's him.
34:28So sorry, sorry.
34:30Didn't mean to steal your thunder.
34:31No fire engines with you today.
34:36Um, please, uh, go on to your speech.
34:39Oh, hello, darling.
34:41Hello.
34:42Um, but, Declan, you are undoubtedly the jewel in the Carinium crown, and I know everyone
34:49here joins me in welcoming you, your wife, Maud, and your daughter, Agatha, to our Cotchester
34:55family.
34:56Declan O'Hara, ladies and gentlemen.
34:57CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
35:06Lunch, everybody.
35:08Good lunch.
35:16Is it loving in your eyes all the way If I listen to your lies, would you say
35:29I am a man without an infection Look at all this gorgeous food
35:40People are always saying you should write a book, Mrs Jones. You've led such a fascinating life
35:45How funny. People are always telling me I should open a shop
35:51So where have you moved to?
35:53Witcher, Green Lawns. It's a lovely house now. We've added the extension and double glazed over those draughty old windows
35:58Those Victorians must have worn a lot of jumpers
36:01Home. Very good. But the only house I know around there is Bottom Hollow Court
36:06Green Lawns sounded so much prettier, especially now we've landscaped the gardens
36:10No tatties, Fred Fred
36:15Lord Baddingham is wooing my Fred Fred for his board
36:19I'm encouraging him to get more cultured
36:21We could do with a few more caring wives at Carina, Mrs Jones
36:24Oh, please
36:26Call me Mousy. All of my friends do
36:29Shall we go and find somewhere to perch?
36:32Let's. Mousy
36:34Do move on to something soft, darling. We don't want the hump ball again
36:37I do so enjoy your couple
36:42My husband tells me you're one of the most powerful men in England
36:47Yeah, I suppose I am
36:48And I expect you're allowed a few potatoes
36:53One potato, two potato, three
36:56Shall we find my booze?
37:01Hello, Duncan
37:03I'll see you later
37:05We were all so surprised when you left the BBC for Carinium
37:08Do you miss your integrity? Or do you feel lighter without it?
37:12What was it the private I called you?
37:15The first not quite a lady of Fleet Street, was it?
37:23Dag
37:24Have you seen your mother around?
37:26No, I don't
37:30I've met a few athletes in my time, they always get what they want
37:33And what do we want?
37:35To win
37:36Well, sadly, I'm not sure of jumping anymore
37:39Well, you're still athletic
37:43You're certainly too disturbing to be living across the valley
37:46Ah!
37:52There you are
37:53Finally
37:55Sure guy himself
37:57Mr. Cumberblack
37:59Getting to know the neighbours?
38:02Taggy, have you met Rupert?
38:05No, I think I remember
38:08Agatha, that's my daughter
38:09Taggy
38:11I hear you did a hatchet job on Paul Stratton
38:14That I'd have loved to see
38:15Mmm
38:20Shall you make a dent in Tony's whisky collection?
38:25Why not?
38:41Are you hiding again?
38:43Well, they're just at the end of Das Rheingold
38:45I need you out there with me
38:47Bloody Rupert, I want to get this over with
38:49No, come here
38:54Can't believe I'm going to him for legitimacy
38:57All he did for his status was to be born into it
38:59It's just social currency, darling
39:00It's the way the world works
39:02Public school, why?
39:03Well, shall we send Archie to a comprehensive
39:04And save on the school fees
39:07He'll only make you feel inferior
39:09If you give him permission
39:10Now, deep breath
39:12Shoulders back
39:14Goodbye
39:19Working the weekend?
39:20I hope Tony's paying you handsomely, Ginger
39:23Come on, Docs
39:26Took some digging, but I found these
39:28I think you'll enjoy them
39:29It's a little Declan O'Hara insurance
39:33Ooh
39:34Ooh
39:57Peaceful is the country that is strongly armed
40:01Hmm
40:01Baddingham family motto
40:05Circa 1972
40:10Lord Pop Pop, Tony's father
40:13Made his millions in munitions during the war
40:15That's why Tony married Lady Monica of the Glen
40:19He had Daddy's cash
40:21Mon Mon had the house
40:22And what Tony wants most of all
40:25Class
40:28Why are the English so obsessed with class?
40:32Monique
40:32Declan?
40:33I was only asking Mr. Cumberbuck a question, Lord
40:37Rupert!
40:38You've met Declan, then?
40:39Anyone want another drink?
40:40Oh!
40:41You found one?
40:44It's decent scotch, did Monica choose it?
40:46He he he he he he he he he
40:48Ignore us, our families go back a loooong way
40:51Not that far
40:53Listen, er, can I have a word, Rupert, in private?
40:56A business proposition
40:57Well, we're all friends here
40:59Nothing you can say to me that dear Morty shouldn't hear?
41:02Yeah, I am not drinking sherry with the wives while the men have all the fun.
41:06Oh, you want to be here when Tony asked me to be on his board?
41:16Uh, well, all right.
41:20It's a lucrative game, I thought you wanted.
41:23It's so hard to take you seriously, Tony, you just always sound like you're playing Monopoly.
41:28Ha!
41:30The answer's no.
41:31Lady Gosling thinks I can give you some class, help you keep your franchise,
41:35but I'm not using my family name so you can buy yourself a bigger helicopter.
41:42Uh, Tony, Paul Stratton's here.
41:45Ah!
41:48Sorry we're late, everyone.
41:50Bit of trouble getting out of bed, actually.
41:52Yeah, you know what newlyweds are like.
41:55Oh, mind yourself in those jeans, you bend over your eyes will pop out.
41:58And the new Mrs Stratton.
42:01Now, you are a very welcome upgrade.
42:04Well done, Paul.
42:08Uh, do you know Declan O'Hara?
42:09Oh, yes. Yeah.
42:10You did us all a favour, actually, Mr O'Hara.
42:13Good to get everything out in the open.
42:15We're insanely happy. Aren't we, Paul?
42:17I'm a new man.
42:18Hm.
42:22Excuse me.
42:41I heard about you catching Campbell Black playing tennis in the Noddy.
42:47That's enough to upset anyone.
42:49Who knows about that?
42:52Well, the whole valet knows about the fire engines.
42:56And I know who the mystery woman was now, don't I?
43:05Too many.
43:13I need to lie.
43:15I need him.
43:16I could go man.
43:18I need him.
43:21He's right at home.
43:22He knows.
43:26I should go.
43:28Bye.
43:28I need him.
43:52You know you're dancing with the devil, don't you?
43:55Says the man who works for Thatcher.
43:58Let's hope he's got rhythm.
44:18Oh, you ain't coming.
44:23You bastard!
44:26You've been shagging Sarah Stratton, too.
44:34It was only tennis.
44:36Oh, fuck!
45:02You
45:21I'm going to ruin you I'm so sorry
45:42I wouldn't mind but that's my car
45:57So it's Rupert now is it?
45:59It was a conversation I was conversing
46:01You were all over him
46:02Oh now I can't even talk to a man without you assuming that I'm after him
46:06Oh grow up
46:06Oh God I didn't ask to come here
46:08You're the one that took the check and just sold us all out
46:11Yeah Maude it's a horrible house and you live a terrible life
46:14But these are our people now
46:15Oh my God they're all horses and dogs and houses and cars
46:19And who's got the longest feckin driveway
46:22Oh my God the men are all desperate to ride anything
46:25As long as they're not married to it
46:26The wives Jesus they haven't had an orgasm since pony club camp
46:38That's not us is it?
46:43Everyone was looking at you
46:45Huh?
46:47And did you like that?
46:50Oh God
46:50How much?
46:51How much is it like that?
46:54Tell me
46:55No I'm not
46:57Oh
47:06Oh
47:07Oh
48:21Yes.
48:23Yes, fine.
48:26No, it was a buffet table.
48:31Of course.
48:32See you at 9am.
48:34You have a good evening, Prime Minister.
48:42Come on, dogs.
48:44Daddy's in trouble again.
49:03Mummy and Daddy are clearly back on track.
49:06Was Rupert there?
49:07Yeah.
49:09I think so.
49:19As she gazed at the Ocaseats with their burnished bohemian beauty, entering this world of unbridled passion, she worried.
49:29Little did Dermot Ocasey know that he had brought his family into the wild.
49:34Into a world of untamable beasts, giving in to their basest needs.
49:48Hungry for sex.
49:55Hungry for status.
50:00Hungry for love.
50:09Hungry for power.
50:12You know, Campbell Black is finished after today.
50:15Hungry for comfort.
50:16Are you coming to bed?
50:18Are you coming to bed?
50:19You had better be stopped while I'm naked when I get through there.
50:24Good dog.
50:25Good dog.
50:26Slide up.
50:33Mm, my eyes have seen the glory and the coming of the Lord.
50:48Mm, my eyes have seen the glory and the coming of the Lord.
50:54Because as seductive as these predators might be, one should always beware of being eaten from.
51:13My ass!
51:25This is a surprise.
51:27The Prime Minister wasn't thrilled about seeing her Minister's private lives splashed all over the papers.
51:32Paul Stratton's been shuffled to the back benches.
51:35Oh dear, have you lost your job?
51:37No, not at all. No, no, Mrs. Thatcher's given me a promotion.
51:41I'm her new Minister for Sport, so...
51:46I couldn't have done it without you.
51:49You had to come all this way to tell me that.
51:53I want you to keep your grubby little nose out of my affairs.
51:58Maggie will see through you soon enough, you overprivileged cunt.
52:07I have to try harder than that if you want to beat me, Lord Battingham.
52:18Come on.
52:20You are new to this...
52:29They will show you how to drain you in the sun, because it's okay.
52:35You have to do the same claps as well and as well, that's nothing to do!
52:41You don't have to �HHH!
52:49Theance of iras is TYRCH LADY everyone's chances to hear from you.
52:49Oh, ha ha ha ha ha ha.
52:53Oh, ha ha ha ha ha.
