00:04Let me take you to the place where never shifts a smiling face
00:09Put shoulders with the stars
00:12We're free to take you by the hand
00:14And welcome you to Wonderland
00:17We'll meet the plan for us
00:20The dragon kind of dreams are pretty
00:25And sunshine is enough for everyone
00:29All that's missing is to see
00:38Mum said I could crash the party
00:43How does she behave?
00:47Sex on the beach
00:50Just the sex, please
00:53Come on, darling, enjoy
00:55Can James' trunks contain his excitement around Mrs. Stratton?
00:59Stay tuned to find out
01:03You okay?
01:06Have a bad time
01:15Cream?
01:17So easy to burn in this heat
01:19Good idea
01:20James, I'll do you if you do me
01:22Thanks, Deirdre
01:25Thank you, Deirdre
01:28The path to true love never did, I suppose, darling
01:31You really know how to throw a party?
01:41Oh, yes
01:42I'm king of the fucking castle
01:46Catch!
02:02Everybody ready?
02:06Smile, it's not a firing squad
02:09Right, let's go
02:22We are delighted to announce that we are a new consortium called Ventura
02:28And we are pitching against Carinium for the Central Southwest ITV franchise
02:33When did you decide to make this bid?
02:35Is it a personal vent?
02:37Are you the only one on the team with TV experience?
02:39Does Lord Battingham know that you're taking him on?
02:43If I could have a word, Lord B
02:44Not now
02:45You're going to want to hear this
02:49What is it?
02:50It's a rival franchise bid
02:53Declan, Freddie Jones
02:54Rupert Campbell Black
02:57What the fuck?
03:04Fuck
03:04Fuck
03:04Fuck
03:05Fuck
03:05Fuck
03:05Fuck
03:06Fuck
03:12Fuck
03:13Fuck
03:59Unbelievable. That bunch of amateurs think they can take me on. You call yourself a fucking journalist. You should have
04:05been all over this. I can't be everywhere. Oh, pitiful. And you, why the hell didn't you know this was
04:11happening? I told you as soon as I found out.
04:14All right, okay, we have to fight back. We're stronger than them and we can prove it.
04:18No one is to speak to anyone from the fuck they called? Venturer. Sounds like a brand of Johnny's. No
04:24one is to speak to anyone from fucking Venturer under any circumstances. Instant sucking if you do.
04:31No! Why the fuck are you all wearing swimwear? Party's over!
04:39Sorry.
04:40Not eaten at all. Not eaten as biscuits.
04:43You! Backstabbing whore!
04:45Tony!
04:46Her husband, Rupert Campbell Black and Declan Bloody O'Hara are bidding for my franchise. Get out of my house!
04:53Tony, Hermione's my friend.
04:55Not anymore.
04:56Go on, fuck off!
05:02Hermione!
05:04I've never seen him so angry.
05:08That man is a monster.
05:10This sort of behaviour is just a nut hole.
05:13No, it isn't.
05:14This is what we're dealing with.
05:16Tony's gloves are off.
05:19One good thing, Cameron obviously hadn't blabbed.
05:23Otherwise, he'd never reacted like he did.
05:25Yeah, well, in an ideal world, he wouldn't have had a clue about us yet, except we had to announce
05:30early because you couldn't keep your trousers up and your mouth shut.
05:33But from now on, we need to stay in full control of our campaign.
05:38A campaign, you say?
05:39We're in our war, Henry.
05:41Yes.
05:42Now the hard work begins.
05:45Gerald.
05:45Certainly.
05:47These are copies of our draft application for all of you.
05:51Everyone needs to know this back to front so we can answer any questions that come our way.
05:54We also need more television people.
05:57Producers who know how to make award-winning programmes.
05:59As wonderful as you all are, we lack practical experience.
06:03We also need to start a petition, get the locals on side so they come to the public consultation next
06:07month.
06:08It is crucial that we make a good showing, else Lady Gosling can pull her application.
06:13I have a captive audience every Sunday and can certainly secure the support of my flock.
06:19I will canvas my students and put up posters at the university.
06:22I can have art with a petition.
06:25Please, if you coach me what to say, I know I can do it.
06:27It's a lot to learn, Tag.
06:29Then help her, man.
06:31General Patton was dyslexic.
06:32Never stopped him.
06:34Tag here, the front of town command.
06:36If that's what's needed.
06:37Thank you, Tag.
06:39Yeah, I have an idea.
06:40Hope it's better than your last effort.
06:43Fuck off, Decker.
06:44Oh, Rupert, give it a break.
06:45No, stop it, stop it.
06:51Do you know why I've never had one strike in my factories?
06:54I let every man play to his strengths and I don't interfere.
06:59We're all on the same side here.
07:02We need to pull together, not pull each other apart, okay?
07:07Yeah.
07:14Good.
07:16Your husband is very impressive.
07:19All this.
07:20In his element.
07:22Yes.
07:22And just when I thought he was mine again, the new mistress whisks him away.
07:29God, for another ball at the end of Five Nations, a Twiggy.
07:32Everyone keeps having a go at me.
07:33I can't keep saying I'm sorry.
07:34Well, then stop doing things you need to be sorry for.
07:51That's just what I don't wear so much.
07:53We're really appreciate it.
07:58I just love that I'm going to go to the end of the show.
08:01I'm just talking about dance for the television.
08:02Can't you go for the new band?
08:03Oh, it's supposed to be fun.
08:04It's supposed to be fun.
08:05I'm not going to go for the new band.
08:06I guess I just want it to be.
08:07You're a red fire at all.
08:09I'm not.
08:12These are the days when you wish your bed was already made.
08:18It's just another Manic Monday.
08:23Hi, I'm Taggy.
08:25So I don't know if I'd like to talk to you about Ventura television.
08:27Of course.
08:28Okay, great.
08:29You won't be free to talk about Ventura this morning.
08:31Hi, um, can I talk to you about Ventura?
08:33No, I'm not interested.
08:49Taggy!
08:49Miss Feblin, I'm so sorry.
08:51I didn't know you lived here.
08:52Wait, I...
08:56Fancy an illicit cup of tea?
09:00All right.
09:00Oh, and then, I was hoping to run into you to thank you for New Year's Eve.
09:06You're having a heart attack.
09:08It wasn't a heart attack.
09:10It was, um, a panic attack.
09:14Started about a year ago.
09:16I don't tell many people, so if you could, just keep it to yourself.
09:19Of course.
09:22You better now.
09:23Definitely on the mend.
09:25After New Year's Eve, Rupert visited me at home and realised I wasn't coping with Mother.
09:31He put a rocket up social services.
09:34Now we've distrapped us every day.
09:37Rupert did that?
09:38Yes.
09:40He was tremendous.
09:47The stars are hitting the red carpet in London today for the 1987 British Television Awards.
09:54Competition is tight in this year's drama series category.
09:57It could be the life and loves of a she-dowel, a singing detective, or will they go with this
10:03year's audience choice of four men went to moan?
10:06Over here, over here, please.
10:09Back to her.
10:10Let's go.
10:11Let's go over here.
10:12Let's go.
10:13Let's go.
10:13Let's go.
10:14Let's go.
10:15Let's go.
10:16Let's go.
10:22Let's go.
10:23Let's go.
10:23Let's go.
10:26Let's go.
10:27Let's go.
10:28Let's go.
10:29Come on.
10:29Good to see you.
10:31Let's go.
10:33Let's go.
10:34Let's go.
10:35Let's go.
10:37Let's go.
10:38Let's go.
10:39Let's go.
10:44I told you I could get this invited.
10:46Well, what to say, Rupert?
10:49This was definitely one of your better ideas.
10:51Yeah.
10:53See the book and tell what he says.
10:56So, who's the big fishery on a lousy night?
11:00Lots of potential, but that's Harold White over there from Canada.
11:04He's my number one for program control.
11:07Marie Lemon, then.
11:09Mm-hmm.
11:12Harold!
11:13Oh, Dick!
11:22I hope I don't run into you here.
11:25Thanks for keeping your mouth shut, that adventure.
11:28If any consolation didn't even read your application in the end, Declan thought it wasn't fair game.
11:32Hmm.
11:34At least someone in your consortium has integrity.
11:37You still won't win, though.
11:44Cameron Cook.
11:45I think I'll bump into you.
11:46Do you mean Hathaway?
11:48I'm part of the group that's pitching for Yorkshire TV.
11:50Hey, I'd be very much like to talk to you about coming on board.
11:55I'm happy at Carinium.
11:57Well, we can top what Tony's paying you.
11:59Our pockets are just as deep.
12:00But not your vision, and I'm a vision kind of a woman.
12:03Well, I...
12:05Fuck off, Hathaway.
12:09What a nice slimeball one.
12:10He asked me to join his bid for Yorkshire television.
12:14What did you say?
12:15But I'm happy where I am.
12:17Tony, hi.
12:18Richard.
12:19Oi, great to see you at the board meeting the other night.
12:21Sorry, good.
12:22You remember my wife, Elissa?
12:23So glad you're here.
12:25Come on, Harold.
12:26You spent the last ten minutes telling me how unhappy you are.
12:29You left Carinium in a blaze of alcohol-sanked violence.
12:33Documented on live television.
12:36And every gossip-odomist this side of whopping.
12:39Hardly the ID in the CD for the managing director.
12:42Would you at least think about it?
12:44Look, I'm a good friend there.
12:46Yes, you are a very talented presenter, but running a franchise is a completely different skill set.
12:53And frankly, I can't risk my entire career on that kind of long shot.
12:58Harold.
13:05Ladies and gentlemen, presenting tonight's award for the best drama series, please welcome Miss Natalie Perrault.
13:20It's so lovely to be back in the UK to present this award and to have such a warm welcome.
13:28The winner of best drama series is...
13:32C'est magnifique.
13:33Four men went to Moe.
13:35Yeah!
13:39Well done.
13:43Well done, boy.
13:47Well done, this movie is so proud.
13:52Good to see you.
13:54I'd want an award if I had to sleep with Tony.
13:56Oh, she's a woman who gets watching once, that's for sure.
13:59Oh.
14:11Thank you so much for this British television award.
14:14It means a huge amount.
14:17I remember the day that my dad brought home our first television.
14:21A Ferrante.
14:22It was quite the status symbol of 1952.
14:25A big wooden box of tricks warming up in the corner of our lounge sitting room.
14:31Um, my father, Lord Battingham, loved television.
14:39He spent his days walking the corridors of power with world leaders, helping good men to win bad wars.
14:46And then he'd come home in the evening and sit down and watch Coronation Street.
14:50He would have loved Four Men Went to Moe.
14:53Four Men Went to Moe entertains 12 million people weekly.
14:56And that's in the UK alone.
14:58And that's in the UK alone.
14:58It's become a global phenomenon.
15:02Dad, I hope it made you proud tonight.
15:05Uh, but it would never have become what it is, a lauded and beloved national and international
15:14hit, without the real brains behind the programme and behind Carinium.
15:22The force of nature that is Cameron Cook.
15:26Cameron, this award is yours.
15:49Wow.
15:51Um, when Tony invited me to England to become a part of the Carinium family, I was
15:58a part of the Carinium family.
15:59He promised that together we would make award-win in television with integrity.
16:12This...
16:18This really needs a lot.
16:20This really needs a lot.
16:30Congratulations, Lord.
16:31Lord Barrington, Cameron Cook, and the Canadian Television Team behind four men,
16:35Wenson One.
16:38Thank you very much.
17:14You're not scared. Somebody might see us.
17:20Tonight, I am oiled.
17:55Tonight, I am oiled.
18:10Tonight, I am oiled.
18:17Tonight, I am oiled.
18:24Tonight, I am oiled.
18:29Tonight, I am oiled.
18:47What's happened?
18:52Walter Scott's dead.
18:54Oh.
18:55I'm sorry to ruin your first British television award.
18:59You could never ruin anything.
19:05Oh, I'm sorry.
19:09You're such a loyal animal.
19:14I hope no one saw you coming here.
19:16Not that it isn't lovely to see you, but just if Tony knew.
19:19Don't worry. I was very careful.
19:22Thanks. Right.
19:24So, what can I do for you?
19:27We'd like you to join Venture.
19:29What?
19:31Did Daddy put you up to this?
19:33She told me she saw you.
19:34I don't need pity.
19:35I'm not offering pity, Charles.
19:39You are still one of the best and brightest.
19:43A real whiz kid.
19:45Well, I'm a whiz kid now.
19:47Because Tony makes you feel worthless.
19:50He is wrong.
19:52You have so much to offer.
19:54You would make an incredible controller of programmes.
19:57No. No, no, no. I can't.
19:59Not with Mother. There's stress.
20:01Okay. All right. All right.
20:03Oh, but documentaries.
20:05That's where you started out.
20:09I've loved that. Thank you.
20:12Tea.
20:13Tea.
20:13Yes.
20:17May our British Television Award be the first of many.
20:21Bravo.
20:24Now, you all need to sign new contracts.
20:27What for?
20:27Standard practice in any franchise here.
20:30Tony needs to know that you're loyal.
20:32Miss Madden will have them on your desk tomorrow.
20:33Sign your return by Friday, please.
20:35No holidays to be taken until this is in the bag.
20:38Not even sick days, unless you're actually dying.
20:41Between now and December, we are going to wow the IVA with our creative output.
20:44But we also need to discredit Venturer.
20:49Declan was desperately pushed for cash when it worked here.
20:51How's he raised funds?
20:53We should investigate any IRA connections.
20:55Well, not all Catholics are terrorists.
20:57Well, he's tried to blow us sky high.
20:59Wouldn't be anything past him.
21:00Rupert's a government minister, surely being a part of Venturer's conflict of interest.
21:04No, sadly.
21:06But get your husband to ask about it in the house anyway.
21:09Nothing wrong with seeding doubts.
21:10What about the bishop?
21:12Bet he's fiddled with a choir boy or two.
21:14One for you to investigate there, Charles.
21:16But most importantly, find out who Rupert's sleeping with, Seb.
21:19There's got to be something there.
21:19That's not really the sort of journalism...
21:20I don't give a fuck!
21:22I also heard Freddie Jones on the radio this morning,
21:25doing his Man of the People shtick.
21:27Ginger, the Mind Radio Colchester, I'm on their board.
21:30I don't want any more of that sort of coverage.
21:31Consider it done.
21:32They'll be recruiting production people, so watch your colleagues.
21:38Cheers.
21:39Cheers.
21:41Now, fuck off, they're on it.
21:43Excuse me.
21:47He was so angry.
21:49You need to be careful.
21:52So he's really gunning for us, then?
21:54I've never seen him so determined, Declan.
21:56He's like a man possessed.
21:58He's going to try to destroy you.
22:00Thanks for the heads up.
22:06You're going to have to do better than that if you're going to work for Venturer, Charles.
22:10Oh, yes!
22:12Oh, very good, Sebastian.
22:13Very funny.
22:15Don't make that joke to Tony, though.
22:17I don't make jokes about things that aren't funny.
22:21And you helping Venturer win the franchise?
22:24That isn't funny at all.
22:27We've had word that with the rocketing AIDS numbers, the IBA wants real focus on family values.
22:33So with that in mind, I thought, we thought that a program on how to stay married would fly.
22:40Network slot, of course.
22:42Network?
22:44Yeah.
22:45Great, marriage.
22:47Finances, dual careers, housework, sex, rows, decorating the house.
22:53And we'd like you to front it with a lady very close to your heart.
22:57Sarah would be honored.
22:59I'm not talking about Sarah.
23:01I'm talking about Lizzie, your wife.
23:03Lizzie?
23:04Yeah, of course.
23:05So the fewer working lunches you have with Mrs. Stratton from now on, the better.
23:09Yeah?
23:12Absolutely, Tony.
23:14Off you pop.
23:15Right, yes.
23:33Darling.
23:38Guess what?
23:38What?
23:39We've been off on our own show.
23:42What do you mean, our own show?
23:44You and me.
23:45Tony wants to call it How to Stay Married.
23:49Us?
23:50On TV?
23:51Well, it'll mainly be me, but Tony wants you too for authenticity.
23:54Well, I can't.
23:55My editor's screaming at me for a draft.
23:58There aren't enough hours in a day.
23:59Of course you can.
24:01There's nothing you can't do.
24:02Haven't I always said that?
24:04In fact, this show, it could be the push your books need to really, you know, sell.
24:14But I hate being photographed, let alone on camera.
24:18Can't you do it on your own?
24:19Oh, for God's sake, of course not, Lizzie.
24:20Tony wants you.
24:22Us.
24:23He asked me personally,
24:26at least do the screen test before you decide to destroy my career.
24:32Okay.
24:33Fine.
24:34I'll do the test.
24:36This is going to be the making of us.
24:46Here we are, ladies.
24:47Topper?
24:49Excuse me.
24:51What are my two favourite girls doing having a drink?
24:53In my bar.
24:54Without letting me know.
24:55Oh, we're on the run from our humdrum lives.
24:58Are you really?
24:58Oh, you are disgustingly bred.
25:00A few weeks playing polo in Argentina will do that to a chap.
25:03What?
25:04No rest for the wicked.
25:06Excuse me.
25:08Oh, that arse.
25:10Oh, we'll have to meet in secret from now on, or James will have a fit.
25:13Oh, good practice for having an affair.
25:18I've never had an affair.
25:19I think if I didn't have my admirers, I'd tell Declan I would still be married.
25:24Oh.
25:24What he sleeps with is work.
25:26We need something.
25:27Everybody does.
25:28It's how people stay married.
25:30You sound like Rupert.
25:32I'll take that as a compliment.
25:35Really?
25:35You'd never fancy just a little pin in the side?
25:38Much too complicated.
25:41I love complications.
25:44Makes life much more exciting.
26:00Can I help you?
26:03Where's your father?
26:07Christ, Charles.
26:08What are you playing at?
26:09Sorry.
26:09It keeps the Battingham KGB off my trail.
26:12Something's happened.
26:15So now you know then,
26:17what are you going to do, Seb?
26:19Tell Tony about Charles.
26:24Declan, working with you,
26:26was the best job I've ever had.
26:28What I'd like to do,
26:30is join you.
26:32If you'll have me.
26:34I could be another mole in Tony's camp.
26:36I always fancy myself a spy.
26:38Careful, you don't get, like, carried away, Sebastian.
26:41Sorry, couldn't resist.
26:42You really want to help us take on Tony?
26:44I was thinking bullies is what I went into journalism to do.
26:56Head of news, perhaps.
26:57Welcome on board.
26:59Bravo. Thank you.
27:06Table for two.
27:09It's a bit public, isn't it?
27:10Actually, we're here to see you.
27:13Right?
27:14It's high time you joined Carinium.
27:18There's a seat on the board with your own name on it.
27:21That's very generous of you.
27:23I need people around me I can trust.
27:24They're at my back.
27:26It isn't about work, it's about loyalty.
27:28Family.
27:30Saying that Carinium's very lucrative business to get more.
27:33And we've got amazing program plans in all areas,
27:36so this is really the time for you to join the board.
27:41Good afternoon, Tony.
27:44I've just signed with the other side.
27:48Rupert's promised to put Polo on television.
27:50Something I'm interested in that you've always dismissed as ridiculous.
27:53Yes.
27:54You only want me to join your board so you can impress the IBA with your...
27:58family values.
28:00Whereas Venturer asked me because they know what I'm worth.
28:04I'm not just your little brother, Tony.
28:08I'm an asset.
28:13No.
28:14The only asset you have is the Battingham name,
28:16and you got that by the skin of your illegitimate teeth.
28:20Rupert asked you to try to hurt me.
28:21That's how desperate he is.
28:29Look at you all.
28:31A drunk.
28:32And a weak.
28:34And a washed-up show jumper.
28:37All you've got in common is overblown ego.
28:42I'd enjoy destroying you all, though.
28:45You'll implode all by yourselves.
28:54Tony's right, though, isn't he?
28:57Nobody will touch us with a barge pole.
28:59We have morals. That should come for something.
29:01Yeah, some of us do.
29:02Well, Sir Baz isn't on board, then.
29:04It doesn't matter how many people join us.
29:06Declan's the only person on that team who's actually made any television.
29:10Well, you haven't lost anyone's respect if you just jack it all in.
29:12I mean, the whole of Fulham are desperate for us to return.
29:16I mean, we could even go back to Dublin.
29:18You said I'd have to drag it by your hair back to Dublin.
29:20At least someone will be touching me, Declan.
29:23Tony's got inside our heads.
29:24It's exactly what he wants.
29:26But is he right?
29:28Is Venture a stupid idea?
29:44Good morning, Gerald.
29:46Good morning.
29:47Busy day today.
29:49The PM's office called.
29:51Say what?
29:52Well, she thinks you've joined the wrong team in this franchise race.
29:56Backbenchers are beginning to doubt your intentions.
30:00New Year,
30:16Darling,
30:18do you think you'd be back in time to record my radio interview?
30:20I've left a blank tape next to the hi fi.
30:23Oh, no, I'm not going to Carineon today.
30:25James is doing the screen test with Lizzie so I thought I'd keep out of the way.
30:30Right.
30:36I'm surprised you're so relaxed.
30:38What do you mean?
30:39Oh, come on, Fitzgerald.
30:40Lizzie and James' show goes well.
30:44Tony will want her for Roundup, too.
30:46All that real-life chemistry on screen.
30:50Can't beat a day.
30:52It's a shame, really.
30:54You being on TV was very good for our profile.
30:56Tony would never do that.
30:57But James wouldn't have it.
30:59Ambition is a cruel mistress.
31:03You need a strategy, my love,
31:06before you are out on your ear.
31:16Ooh-loo.
31:31Good morning, Mrs. Stratton.
31:44Sarah, I've got half an hour
31:45till my How to Stay Married screen test.
31:46Yes, and I want to help you with that.
31:48No, absolutely not.
31:49Oh, come on.
31:49You're so much better on screen when you're relaxed.
31:51I am completely relaxed already.
31:53Are you?
31:53Yes, I am.
31:54Look, Sarah.
31:55James, what Tony doesn't know
31:58won't hurt him.
32:04Lizzie Verica?
32:06For the screen test?
32:07Please take a seat.
32:20Mrs. Verica, ready for your TV debut?
32:23Not really, Deidre.
32:24Do I look okay?
32:27I'm sure wardrobe can do something.
32:30This way.
32:34James is in here.
32:35Do you want to say hello first?
32:37Hmm.
32:49Let's get you to wardrobe.
32:59Right, lights on, Birdie.
33:02Here we go, people.
33:04Camera's set.
33:06Why don't you're on the single, yeah?
33:08John?
33:08Got two shots.
33:09Lovely.
33:10Right.
33:10We're going to have a set, please, ladies.
33:12Big red bus.
33:14Big red bus in the morning.
33:16Red lights!
33:18Standby.
33:19Ready?
33:19Roll camera.
33:21They're going to be marvellous.
33:22Oh, better to hold hands.
33:24Looks more married.
33:26On in.
33:27Five, four, three.
33:29What's it?
33:34Welcome to How to Stay Married,
33:37a new weekly series where we explore
33:39how couples last the course.
33:48And Cher?
33:51And Cher, our secret recipe for long-term love.
33:57I'm Lizzie Verica, a romantic novelist and mother of two.
34:02And you need no introduction to me, James Verica.
34:06We've been married for...
34:07What do you think?
34:09Lizzie needs work, but she'll get there.
34:11There we go.
34:11It makes him much less plastic, like a real marriage.
34:15And we'll be your hosts for How to Stay Married.
34:21That's a great concept.
34:24The show or married?
34:28Both.
34:39And now, moving on to a member of your own party, Mr. Stratton.
34:43Someone that everyone seems to be talking about at the moment.
34:46Ah.
34:47Showjumper, member of parliament, and now television producer.
34:50What next?
34:52Joan Collins' husband?
34:54The minister for sports certainly gets around, doesn't he?
34:57Indeed he does.
34:58And I think I can speak for the entire Tory party
35:00when I say that ministers should focus on what voters need.
35:04Not cooking up alternatives to Grange Hill.
35:07So, could Mr. Campbell Black be gambling his political career
35:11with his franchise beer?
35:12No, I couldn't.
35:13For God's sake, shut him up.
35:14Oh, but shut...
35:20Turn off here.
35:23Where are we going?
35:24Where are we going?
35:53Good luck.
35:54Up.
35:55Up.
35:56And Rupert and Belgravia sail over the water and turn.
36:01Shepet stampede the course as if the jumps didn't exist.
36:04A heroic effort.
36:05Keep it tight.
36:07Keep it going, Ness.
36:07No, keep it together.
36:08Just me and you, you're a heroic effort.
36:10What?
36:12Rupert Campbell Black and Rocky have won.
36:15Yeah!
36:15No, no, no.
36:17Good boy, Rocky.
36:19Good boy.
36:20And it's an Olympic gold for Greg Rupert Campbell Black
36:23has done it.
36:24Despite his dislocated shoulder,
36:26there will never be a victory quite like this.
36:30You're right, Minister.
36:40What's happened?
36:43Someone died?
36:48Or...
36:56I'm in my cell.
37:00Come on, let's go.
37:03Come on.
37:05Let's go.
37:30Right, next stop, Cochster Rugby Club.
37:33Follow the road for three miles,
37:35then take the second left.
37:37You'll see the pub in the corner.
38:00Taggy?
38:01What are you doing here?
38:04Come to talk about sport on television.
38:06Talk to this lot.
38:07They're a bit rowdy.
38:08Yeah, but they're on my list, so...
38:10Right.
38:11Okay.
38:12Well, come on, then.
38:15Well, she'll have you, ladies.
38:17This young lady has come to talk to you about television.
38:22Go on, then, my lover!
38:28Off you go.
38:31Good afternoon.
38:32Get your teeth out!
38:43I'd like to talk to you about Ruch's sporting prowess.
38:46I'll give you prowess, love!
38:50Listen to the lady.
38:54Ventra Television is pitching for its central-southwest ITV franchise in the area,
39:03and we'd like your support on our campaign.
39:07We're really interested in rugby at all levels,
39:09and we'd like to promote competitive sports and...
39:13...the future.
39:18You better go, taggy, love, before they turn feral.
39:23It's so good.
39:25I'll just leave this thing.
39:36Take the first left off to the village green,
39:38carrying the straight down that road for about two miles.
39:41Turn left at the fork in the road, and follow the side...
39:43What fork in the road?
39:44There isn't a fork in the road.
39:47Oh, for fuck's sake!
39:53Oh, shit!
39:57Oh, shit!
40:00Oh!
40:03Unlock the door.
40:05You OK?
40:07You OK?
40:08I'm fine.
40:13There's a blind corner.
40:14Sydney didn't see you.
40:15You hurt?
40:16No.
40:18Sure?
40:18Do you need an ambulance?
40:20No, no, I'm OK.
40:21I'm OK.
40:22I'm fine.
40:22Take a breath.
40:23Take a breath.
40:24I'd better drive her home, and I'll see you tomorrow, Gerald.
40:28You all right?
40:29Yeah.
40:36You'll next be looking out for the post office, which should be hidden around.
40:40Is that you?
40:43Um, yeah, I'm terrible at directions.
40:46You've never been travelling around on your own.
40:48Oh, I don't mind.
40:50I've got so much ground to cover, but, um...
40:53Yeah.
40:54No, today was hard.
41:17You're very quiet.
41:21Too much to think about.
41:24Are you worried about the franchise?
41:28No.
41:30God, no.
41:31Not at all.
41:32No.
41:32Worrying's for losers.
42:02Thanks for driving me back.
42:04At least I could do after nearly running off the road.
42:12Well...
42:15The PM's announcing the election tomorrow.
42:17When she does, I'll be canvassing all over the area.
42:19Why don't you come with me?
42:21Paddle the Venturer canoe.
42:24Better than slogging around on your own.
42:25We can even use the Tory loudspeaker to plug Ventura when no one from the party's listening.
42:29Is it allowed?
42:30Well, make it allowed.
42:35Thanks.
42:37Erm...
42:38How are you going to get back?
42:42Erm...
42:42I'll walk.
42:44It's...
42:46Gorgeous evening.
42:50OK.
42:51Well...
42:52Yeah, yeah, there you go.
43:01OK.
43:04Erm...
43:05Don't worry about the bed.
43:06You're a winner.
43:07You'll work out what to do.
43:08Maybe...
43:19I'll be back.
43:25I don't know.
43:27I don't know.
43:31I can't wait.
43:31I can't wait.
43:32I can't wait.
43:32So long.
43:32I can't wait.
43:33I can't wait.
43:33So long.
43:56What the hell are you doing here?
43:58Five minutes, please, then I'll go.
44:01Five minutes, and then I'm calling the police.
44:12No, I should never have taken your application.
44:16It was a dirty trick to play.
44:17I can't take back what I did, but I can give you our application in return.
44:26Comes with an offer.
44:27Controller of programs.
44:29Carte blanche to make any show you want.
44:34Wow.
44:37You can't afford me.
44:38Yes, we can.
44:40But we can also offer you something more than money.
44:45Stay with Tony, and you will never be a true partner.
44:49With us, you can be a founder.
44:51Have an empire of your own.
44:56Read a replication, sleep on it.
44:59Do whatever you need to do, but we are deadly serious.
45:05Who aren't you?
45:07You know, I can hand that straight to Tony.
45:10It's a huge risk you're taking.
45:12You're worth the risk.
45:15There's a meeting at Pensken, three on Sunday.
45:18If you like what we have to offer, come along.
45:23I don't know.
45:24I don't know.
45:29I don't know.
45:29I'm nervous, I'm frightened of my hands.
45:36Oh, my God.
46:00Oh, my God.
46:30It's Lizzie. Oh.
46:33Hello.
46:36I was just thinking about you.
46:41Really?
46:43Yes.
46:44If that's not too forward.
46:46Not forward at all.
46:48I was calling to see if you'd still like to take me philandre on day.
46:51Oh.
46:57Yes.
46:59Yes, absolutely.
47:01Oh, if you're sure.
47:03I am.
47:04And maybe book somewhere with rooms.
47:09Okay?
47:17Cool.
47:19Oh, my God.
47:52Cameron.
47:54In here.
47:56It's Sunday. Are you okay?
47:58I needed to see you.
48:06Open it.
48:17If we win the franchise, I'll turn that into an engagement ring.
48:22Okay, you just commissioned a show called How to Stay Married.
48:26As you said, it's a great concert with the right person.
48:31I never want to lose you.
48:36So when we win, I say we make it official.
48:38And get married.
48:48What do you think?
49:12Rupert.
49:13We need to stop.
49:16Good to see you.
49:17You too.
49:19I'm expected at the Mothers for Christ Tea at five.
49:23Right.
49:26Well, I've got good news and other news.
49:31I put Penscombe up as collateral, secured a seven million pound loan.
49:36So added to your stake.
49:36Should we win, we're covered for our first two years.
49:40Bloody brilliant.
49:42But you put your house up as collateral.
49:46I'm all in.
49:48Christ.
49:49And the other news?
49:52I offered Cameron Cook control of programs.
49:55I see.
49:57Is that the black woman?
49:58Shh.
49:59Inappropriate.
50:00You've gone mad, Rupert.
50:02And?
50:03I gave her our application so she can see what's on offer.
50:06I'm sorry, you did what?
50:08Why would you do that?
50:09What the fuck?
50:09What did she say?
50:11She didn't.
50:14But I told her if she was in, to be here at three o'clock.
50:17It's nearly all past.
50:18I wanted to secure the win.
50:20You hadn't found a controller of programs.
50:22She's Tony's only trump card.
50:23So you thought you'd just give her all the other cards to?
50:25She gives her application to Tony and he will sabotage all our plans.
50:28She won't do that.
50:29She's fucking amazing.
50:30We need her.
50:31You do, you mean.
50:32On her back.
50:33Fuck off, pass.
50:34I joined this consortium to get away from bullies like her.
50:37Now I have to put up with her when we win.
50:39Fortunately, no, because that treacherous bitch clearly isn't coming.
50:44That's where you're wrong, Declan.
50:46The treacherous bitch is here and she's come to join your side.
50:55Your absolute beauty.
51:00Your creative vision for venture is dazzling.
51:03Look, I'm totally won over.
51:04Sorry, boss.
51:05But I can make that vision a reality.
51:07You expect me to trust you.
51:09You'll be taking a risk.
51:11But you've seen how far I'll go for something I believe in.
51:14Surely it's a risk worth taking.
51:32To Venture's new controller of programs.
51:39Camera and cook.
51:40Cheers.
51:41Camera and cook.
51:42Camera and cook.
51:43Camera and cook.
51:46Right, let's get camera up to speed, shall we?
51:48What is there?
51:51What do you think?
51:56So, uh, what's up?
51:58We're all here.
51:59I hear that.
51:59I hear that.
52:01What do you think?
52:05I hear that.
52:13So, uh, what's up?
52:13We're all here.
52:13That's good.
52:15Oh, God.
52:15Oh, God.
52:20Declan will have his fucking franchise.
52:24What will I have?
52:27Jane.
52:31Shh.
52:34Hmm?
52:36Come on.
52:42So, should I see you later?
52:44Finalize the finer points of our relationship.
52:50Sounds perfect.
53:19Do you really think you can trust her?
53:23I don't know.
53:50What's his name?
53:51No.
53:51But I thought Siegfried.
53:54Siegfried it is.
53:55Hmm.
53:56Well, give me five minutes.
54:03We need to up our surveillance.
54:07We've tapped all the internal phones and we're opening the post.
54:09I'm thinking more personal surveillance.
54:15On everyone.
54:19Absolutely.
54:21Everyone.
54:21We need to be taken care of.
54:25We're coming.
54:32We're coming.
54:34We're going.
54:40We're coming.
54:41We're coming.
54:45We're coming.
54:51We'll be coming.
54:51Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
55:22Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
