00:30Ah, Jerry, you've got a straight line to the green from there.
00:37Wish I had, sir. I'm behind a tree.
00:43You crawler.
00:44That's the rule of business. You play golf with a boss, you always lose.
00:49Afraid I shall have to hack it out from here, sir.
00:58Tarzan, you playing golf with us?
01:08They're chestnuts, I think. Nature's very bountiful, you know.
01:12Are those mushrooms or toadstools?
01:14I don't know. You're supposed to be playing golf, not replenishing your larder.
01:19That's what you think. Are those damsons?
01:21Will you be putting at all today, good?
01:30What? Oh, sorry. Blackberries.
01:35Hold those, will you?
01:45Oh, well done, sir. Brilliant.
02:09Six for me.
02:10You took eight.
02:11Six.
02:13Mind you, Jerry, you've got an easy tap in for a half there.
02:19Well, nothing's safe till it's dead.
02:21I'll hold you, sir.
02:30I just don't seem to be able to read these greens like you can.
02:33Oh, incidentally, Jerry, Van Kampen of Holland's Pastique's coming over on Saturday.
02:47Yes, sir?
02:48Put him up for the weekend, will you? You know the sort of thing.
02:51Then bring him into the office on Monday and we'll get down to business, all right?
02:54With pleasure, sir.
02:55Good.
02:56Now, then, 340 yard, par four.
03:00Yes, dog legs round to the right with your slice.
03:03My what?
03:04The way you can deliberately slice the ball.
03:07You should have no trouble at all.
03:09Yes, of course.
03:13What are you taking here, good?
03:15Pardon?
03:16I said, what are you taking here?
03:18A shotgun.
03:21Rabbit.
03:37The thing is, Barbara, I have rehearsed and rehearsed until I am word perfect.
03:41It's just that I can't remember the lines.
03:44Margaret, do get it in proportion.
03:46This is an amateur production of The Sound of Music at Surbiton Town Hall.
03:50Not a command performance.
03:52Yes, I realise that, but I am the star.
03:55If I'm wrong, everything's wrong.
03:58Well, look, what is it about this particular scene that bothers you?
04:02It's Miss Mantraff's nephew.
04:04He's playing one of Baron Von Trapp's children.
04:07So?
04:08His nose runs, Barbara.
04:10Whenever he's on stage, there's nowhere else I can look.
04:13Yes, I know what you mean.
04:15Look, would you give me the lead-in to the song again?
04:17Right, now the setting is Baron Von Trapp's castle.
04:20Schloss, actually.
04:21Schloss, then.
04:22And Maria...
04:23That's me, of course.
04:24That's you.
04:25You're in your bedroom and there's a thunderstorm outside.
04:28That will be Mr Wainwright with his sheet of metal, of course.
04:31Of course.
04:32Now the children, frightened by Mr Wainwright and his sheet of metal, rush in...
04:37Yes, then I, as Maria, sit on the bed with my arms round the children,
04:43hoping desperately, Barbara, that that runny-nosed little wretch is not one of those I have to come with.
04:48Very sensible.
04:49Now, the children go, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
04:53No, Barbara.
04:54I am not a devotee of Stanislavski. I need the lines.
04:58Right.
04:59Oh, Fraulein, oh, Fraulein, oh, Fraulein, oh, Fraulein, oh, Fraulein, oh, Fraulein, oh, Fraulein.
05:05There are seven children, you see.
05:06Yes, I gathered that.
05:08Oh, Fraulein Maria, we are frightened by the storm.
05:11We are frightened, oh, Fraulein Maria.
05:14Barbara, can't you give me a little more?
05:16Oh, Margo, I've had a busy day.
05:18I'm not up to playing seven Austrian children.
05:20I'm sorry, dear.
05:21It's the director in me coming out.
05:24Post, incidentally, which is totally inadequately filled by Miss Mountrath's brother-in-law,
05:28who has a steel plate in his head.
05:31Can you give me the last line again?
05:34Oh, Fraulein Maria.
05:35Yes.
05:37Then I say,
05:40don't be afraid of the storm, children.
05:43Shall I tell you a secret?
05:45Do you know what I do when I am frightened of something?
05:48Why?
05:49I simply think of my favourite things.
05:57Into song.
05:58Yes, I won't sing, Barbara, because I'm saving the voice for Friday.
06:01Right, very sensible.
06:02Well, the lyrics, then.
06:04Yes.
06:05Raindrops on noses and dewdrops on...
06:08No, no, no.
06:10You see, it's that child and his wretched nose again.
06:13Well, get his nose.
06:14Now, it's raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens.
06:18Yes, whiskers on kittens.
06:20Bright copper kettles and...
06:22Warm.
06:23Warm woolen mittens.
06:25Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings.
06:28These are a few of my favourite things.
06:31Perfect.
06:32Yes, I think I've got it now.
06:33When the shark bites, when the bee...
06:36Shark?
06:37Oh, my God, I've strayed into the Thropony Opera.
06:40Well, that's it, it's going to be total disaster.
06:42I shall be laughed off the stage.
06:44I can't, I can't.
06:45Go sit down.
06:47Now, come on, calm down.
06:49Now, look, this is just nerves, that's all it is.
06:53I was the same when I had to play the recorder at the school concert.
06:56Really?
06:57Yes, if I hadn't been nervous, I'd have just flicked over the pages.
07:00As it was, I dashed at it,
07:02knocked the stand over and stuck the recorder up my nose.
07:06Noses keep cropping up, don't they?
07:08Yes, but I was only 11, you're a woman of thir... mature...
07:13You do know it, Margot, and you'll be wonderful, you'll see.
07:17Thank you, Barbara.
07:19And thank you for stopping my hysterical outburst.
07:21It's just that, ooh, this is so important to me.
07:23Yes, I know.
07:24Well, look, a couple of gins before you go on and you'll knock them dead.
07:27You won't even notice the runny nose.
07:29I hope not.
07:30Right, now...
07:32Hello, girls.
07:33Oh, hello.
07:34Had a nice gossip?
07:35No, we've been playing strip poker with the postman.
07:38Oh.
07:40Well, you chaps had a good round of golf.
07:42Fair, I shot an 87.
07:43Tom?
07:44Fair, I shot two rabbits.
07:46Oh, a couple of pound of blackberries and dams and a few chestnuts.
07:49I didn't shoot them, I picked them.
07:51I do hope Andrew wasn't offended.
07:53No, no, I let him win.
07:54Good.
07:55Oh, by the way, darling, you remember that Mr Van Kampen?
07:58We met him in Amsterdam.
08:00Oh, yes, charming man.
08:02One house in Hilversum and one in Delft, incidentally.
08:05Nice.
08:06Well, anyway, we're putting him up for the weekend.
08:08We most certainly are not.
08:10What? Why?
08:11The hills are alive with sound of music.
08:14Oh, God, I forgot.
08:15Well, thank you very much, Jerry.
08:17Thank you very much for forgetting the most important weekend of my whole year.
08:21But I practically agreed, what am I to do?
08:23Well, tell sir to get...
08:25Look, tell him that Margot's got something very important to do
08:27and you can't put the bloke up. Simple.
08:29But that would mean saying no.
08:31Well, it would be a change from saying yes all the time.
08:35Tom wasn't a yes man when he worked for the company.
08:38No, Tom never got further than the fourth floor, did he?
08:41Look, that isn't the point, Jerry.
08:42He takes advantage of you, both of you.
08:44He treats your house like a hotel.
08:45Margot doesn't mind?
08:46Not generally, Jerry, no.
08:48But if you deny me my crowning moment at the town hall,
08:51I shall never respect you again.
08:55Yes, you're perfectly right.
08:57I shouldn't have forgotten in the first place.
08:59Well, I shall just have to tell sir no.
09:02Thank you very much, Jerry.
09:06Well, cheer up.
09:07You're only saying no to some pot-bellied old twit who cheeks at golf.
09:10Yeah, and slices.
09:11Exactly.
09:12Well, here's to Jerry.
09:13Sir Jerry, slayer of pot-bellied old twits.
09:16Yes.
09:18Mind if I use your loo?
09:25Push, push.
09:27I still think we should have hollowed it out and sculled home.
09:30That would have made it damp and we couldn't have burned it.
09:33Oh, I hate you on the days when you're always right.
09:35Oh, stop moaning or I'll trade you in for a mule.
09:41Oh, thanks, Jerry, that's very thoughtful.
09:43Couldn't have left early, could you?
09:44Couldn't you give us a lift?
09:46Sorry about that, I've had rather a heavy day.
09:49Well, did you get in to see sir?
09:51Yes.
09:52Did you tell him about the weekend?
09:53Yes.
09:54What did he say?
09:55Nothing much.
09:57Just gave me a month's notice.
10:06Margo, will you please keep still?
10:09Keep still, woman.
10:10I'm sorry, Jerry.
10:12These flowers they've given me.
10:14I mean, one does not pick dahlias and chrysanthemums in an alpine meadow.
10:19I'm still desperately worried about Baron von Trapslederhosen.
10:22Why?
10:23Because they have not been dubbed in properly and every time he bends over they squeak.
10:28Darling, that's his problem, you can't worry about everything.
10:30No, I know, but I do.
10:32Oh, dear, I haven't even asked how your job hunting went today.
10:35Oh, I'm at full cry, don't you worry.
10:37Good, it shouldn't be too difficult to find another situation, should it?
10:40Oh, piece of cake.
10:42Now, I must remember not to kick the mountains as I make my entrance because they wobble.
10:48Is this the staff dressing room?
10:49Oh, Tom, Barbara, do come in.
10:51Couldn't afford a telegram, so we made you that.
10:53Oh, how kind.
10:56Shouldn't they be edelweiss?
10:58You see, Barbara's noticed.
11:00I told Miss Mountsharf she should have ordered the real thing from Moisey Stevens, but no, plastic will do.
11:05The whole thing is tap, tap, tap.
11:07Oh, now, come on, Margo.
11:10We saw some of the cast on our way round here.
11:12They look very, very good.
11:13Except the kid with the runny nose.
11:15With his nose running on one side and the baron's lederhosen squeaking on the other.
11:20I should go to pieces, I know I should.
11:22Overture and learners, please. Overture and learners.
11:24Overture and beginners, you ghastly little child.
11:28Yes, I must.
11:30One wonders why one does it.
11:32Now, look, Margo, you'll be wonderful now.
11:34It's raindrops on roses.
11:36And whiskers on kittens.
11:38Ah, you see, you'll be a knockout, Margo.
11:40And don't forget, kid, Flo Zeefield is out front.
11:43Good luck, darling.
11:44Oh, thank you, Jerry.
11:45You've all been most kind.
11:48Oh, most kind.
11:51The hills are alive with the sun.
11:59Hasn't it gone quiet?
12:01The party! Oh, my God, the party!
12:03Why, everything's arranged.
12:04The moment the curtain comes down, we three go off and get everything ready
12:07and you come on later with the cast and friends.
12:09Yes, of course. Sorry.
12:13Don't trip over the mountains. Don't trip over the mountains.
12:19Well, I suppose we should be grateful they're not doing it on ice.
12:24Mind you, it'd make it a lot funnier, wouldn't it?
12:26Tom! Now, look, I know you. You will not laugh.
12:29I don't care if the nuns come on in football boots, you will not laugh.
12:34Stuff your hank in your mouth.
12:36Don't you think we should get to our seats?
12:38Yes, come on, come on. Showtime, Jerry. Come along.
12:40Roar the grease paint and the smell of the crowd and all that.
12:42No. Yes.
12:49Haven't found another job, have you?
12:51No.
12:52Well, only a matter of time.
12:54Once the word gets round a commercial wizard's on the market, you'll be in.
12:57You are out of touch, Tom. I'm 42.
12:59At my executive level, that's practically senile.
13:01Yeah, but you've got contacts.
13:03Yes, the funny thing is, the moment they hear you've got the sack,
13:05they sort of fade away like old soldiers.
13:07And what sort of friends are they?
13:09Well, they're not friends. They're contacts.
13:11Contacts are people who meet each other in pubs
13:13and boost each other's egos with large gins,
13:15then spend the rest of the day stabbing each other in the back with large knives.
13:19Jerry, come on, there must be plenty of other jobs.
13:22These days.
13:24Oh.
13:26Oh, poor old Jerry.
13:28It's all right, Barbara. I can still walk.
13:31Don't worry. I'll be all right.
13:33It's a bad time to get lumbered with the expense of a first night party, isn't it?
13:36Yes, trouble is, I've got a last night party to pay for as well.
13:39Oh, blimey, when's that?
13:41Tomorrow. They're only having two nights.
13:58Oh.
14:01Oh.
14:04I mean...
14:09That was the sound of music, wasn't it?
14:15Possibly.
14:18I only ask because at one time I thought they'd wandered into the Folies-Bergère.
14:23You mean the sunrise scene when all the nuns suddenly realise they're in see-through habits?
14:28Yes.
14:30I never really believed in them after that.
14:33Why did Margot sing Maria?
14:35That's not the name of the character she's playing.
14:38I know it is. I thought the song came from West Side Story.
14:43Oh.
14:47It struck me as rather odd at the time.
14:49I don't think anything would have struck me as odd by then.
14:52No.
14:54Still, one can't expect an amateur production to be perfect, can one?
14:59Not after tonight.
15:04Is the mayor incontinent?
15:08I don't know. Why?
15:10Well...
15:11He kept popping out.
15:14Probably just a music lover.
15:16Poor Margot.
15:19Oh, smiles on. Here they come.
15:21Quick, quick.
15:25Margot!
15:30Good evening.
15:32Where's the crowd?
15:35Nobody's coming.
15:37Well, really?
15:39Oh, well, let them do what they like.
15:42The show had a few gremlins in it, of course, but nothing that can't be...
15:46But you, Margot, you were... I said you, didn't I, Barbara?
15:49Yes, you did, and I said.
15:51I'll say it again.
15:53Yes, we agreed, but all in all, you were really, really...
15:57You were...
15:59Bloody awful.
16:03Well, I was.
16:06Oh, come on.
16:08You can't take all the blame. The rest of the cast were awful as...
16:13As well. You were going to say, as well.
16:16No, no.
16:18Oh, Margot, look what leading lady could possibly do her best
16:21opposite a bloke with squeaky trousers.
16:24Bad enough, four rows back, Heaven knows what it sounded like on stage.
16:27Somebody should have taken him out and oiled him.
16:30And have a conductor with his arm in a sling, his conducting arm, I might add.
16:34And see through nuns.
16:36Exploding footlights.
16:41No, I'm sorry. Everything you say is true.
16:44But the fact remains that I was the leading lady.
16:47I could have saved that show.
16:49Instead of which, I gave a performance that plumbed the very depths of ineptitude.
16:54I am right, aren't I?
16:57Yes, you were terrible.
16:59Thank you, Tom.
17:01Why do you sing Maria from West Side Story?
17:04You tell me. The state I was in, I might just as easily have sung the soldiers' chorus from Faust.
17:10Well, there's always tomorrow night.
17:12There isn't. We've been taken off.
17:15You were only on for two nights.
17:17Well, the mayor said we were giving the borough a bad name.
17:23What about the people with tickets?
17:26Well, we're telling them that the chandelier is unsafe.
17:31It probably is after tonight.
17:34I spoke very briefly to Miss Mountshraft after the performance.
17:38Do you know what that stupid woman said?
17:41She said, never mind Mrs Ledbetter, that's show business.
17:45I nearly struck her.
17:47Well, come on, let's celebrate. I mean, let's have a drink. This will cheer us all up.
17:51Champagne? Margarine?
17:53No, thank you, Jerry.
17:55Barbara?
17:56Um, no, not at the moment, thanks.
17:59Tom?
18:00Uh, not for me, no.
18:03Oh, well.
18:13There's lots of food.
18:14Yes, there is, isn't there?
18:17Oh, come on, Margaret, cheer up.
18:19A little disaster at the town hall isn't the end of the world, now is it?
18:22No, of course not.
18:24It was a little production by little people in a little town hall.
18:28Well, that's all right then.
18:30It isn't.
18:31The thing that really depresses me is that I have been totally selfish.
18:35I was so besotted by this fiasco that I never gave a thought to the really important thing,
18:40which is Jerry losing his job.
18:42Hey, that's all right, darling.
18:44Getting the sack isn't a tragedy.
18:46Of course it is, and all the best people do it. Look at Ted Heath.
18:48Ah, it's really not.
18:50Well, wedgie then.
18:52Worse.
18:54I'm not a fool, Tom.
18:55I'm an executive's wife,
18:57and I know very well, if I take the time to think,
19:00that Jerry is not simply going to walk into another job.
19:03Are you, Jerry?
19:05No, it doesn't look like it.
19:06It's all my fault.
19:08If I'd simply entertained Mr Van Campen in the first place,
19:11you'd never have got the sack.
19:12There's never any question of that.
19:14This show was important to you.
19:16Yes, it was.
19:18What a total waste of time it turned out to be.
19:20That's not the point.
19:22Darling, I may have been engaged to the company, but I am married to you.
19:25Oh, Jerry.
19:29Well, er, goodbye all.
19:31Please don't go.
19:32Don't go.
19:33All right, tell you what, look.
19:34You start that end, I'll start this end, and we meet in the middle.
19:37Right, and Jerry and I will do the same with the champagne.
19:39Last one to pass out will do the washing up.
19:43No, I...
19:44I think I'll go to bed, if you don't mind.
19:47Good night.
19:49Good night, Marga.
19:50Good night, Marga.
19:53Jerry.
19:55Now, I think I'll be off too.
19:59Well, tuck in.
20:00You don't mind letting yourselves out, do you?
20:02No, of course not, no.
20:03Night, Jerry.
20:04Night, Jerry.
20:12You know the pigs are constipated and there's no fuel for the generator?
20:19Yes.
20:20You know we've got grey aphids in the Brussels sprouts?
20:23Yes.
20:25We are half lucky.
20:27I know.
20:28What are you doing? Who are you phoning?
20:30I'm going to try and get Jerry's job back.
20:32How?
20:33Look, just leave it to me, woman, will you? Just leave it to me, please.
20:35What?
20:36Hello, sir?
20:37Ah, Tom here, sir.
20:39Tom Good.
20:40Yes.
20:41Look, sir...
20:43Well, this is all very pleasant, Tim.
20:46Tom.
20:47Tom.
20:49Ah, nothing like a log fire, hmm?
20:52Tell me, where do you buy your logs?
20:54Ah, we don't.
20:55We wait till the trees fall over on the common from Dutch-Eldon disease,
20:57and then we haul them home.
20:59Oh, I see you've got your own lorry, have you?
21:01Not exactly, no. It's a trolley with four pram wheels.
21:04Here we are.
21:05We call this the Peapod Express.
21:07Ah, home brew.
21:09Yes, now be careful.
21:10It's very powerful.
21:11My dear Tim, I have drunk tequila in Mexico City,
21:15snaps in Berlin, and sake in Kyoto.
21:19Cheers.
21:20Cheers.
21:29My God!
21:32Told you.
21:33Well, now, you may have thought this was a social gathering,
21:36but in fact I do have an ulterior motive.
21:39I know. You want me to give Jerry his job back.
21:43Yes, all right, I do.
21:44Why should I?
21:45I'll tell you.
21:46But first of all, let me say this.
21:48You're not a fool, and I'm not going to treat you like one.
21:50I'm not going to waste time going all round the houses
21:53trying to find some infinitely subtle way to influence your decision.
21:56I'm just going to come straight to the point.
21:58When?
22:01But let me add this.
22:03I used to work for you, and I walked out, right?
22:05So now we're just two ordinary blokes, right?
22:08I'm not going to be about the bush.
22:10I'm just going to say what I think.
22:12Yes, but what is it?
22:15Jerry's a nice bloke.
22:17Any more wine?
22:20Well, Jerry is a nice bloke.
22:22So?
22:23Well...
22:24Well, what?
22:25Well, nice blokes shouldn't be sacked for putting their wives before their job.
22:28Oh, I think that's me to decide.
22:31Anything else?
22:33Yes, lots.
22:36Barbara?
22:37Yes. Yes, actually, I do have something to say.
22:40Why don't you think of the woman in this?
22:42Think of Margot.
22:43Ninety-nine times out of a hundred,
22:45she's been the unofficial hostess for your company.
22:48It's like United Nations next door sometimes.
22:51I mean, she entertains Russians, French, Belgians.
22:54If you said there were 50 Eskimos coming for dinner,
22:56she'd be down the shops trying to buy whale blubber.
22:59So what was the difficulty with one single Dutchman last weekend?
23:03Well, I mean, she has her own life, too, for heaven's sake.
23:06I think I'll have a drop more of that, if I may.
23:11All right, maybe this'll do it.
23:13I was your top designer at JJM, wasn't I?
23:16Yes.
23:17All right, you take Jerry back,
23:18I'm willing to take on any freelance work your fellows can't handle,
23:21and I might tell you this is a contradiction of terms of the way I lead my life,
23:24and I don't do it lightly.
23:26You don't have to. I've found a better designer than you.
23:32But Jerry is a nice bloke.
23:34There you go, you see.
23:35You charge your whole argument with emotionalism.
23:38It's just a waste of time.
23:40I'm a businessman.
23:41Now, as a businessman, the one thing that might sway me
23:45would be if you were to tell me that Jerry was the kind of efficient executive that I need.
23:50Well, he is.
23:51I know.
23:52That's why I've decided to keep him on.
23:56What?
23:57Well, I may have been a bit liverish when I fired him anyway,
24:00putting the fear of God into one's executives never does me any harm.
24:03Now, if he's learned his lesson, I'm quite prepared to reinstate him.
24:07Then why do you watch us wriggle and squirm when you've already decided that you're some sort of a sadist?
24:12No, I just thought that you might like to give Jerry the news.
24:15I mean, I'm certainly not going to approach him personally.
24:18I thought I might use you as a kind of filter system.
24:22Is it in a sewage farm?
24:25Will you tell him or not?
24:27Yes, all right, I'll tell him.
24:28Good.
24:29Well, I think I'd better be going.
24:31Well, thanks for the drink.
24:33Oh, not at all. Thanks for making us better people.
24:36Just tell me one thing, would you?
24:38When you say, if Jerry has learned his lesson,
24:40you mean if he comes crawling back on all fours, licks your boots and says sorry for being a naughty boy?
24:44Yes, I suppose I do in so many words.
24:46And just what the hell do you give him back in exchange?
24:5018,000 a year, an expense account and a company car.
24:54Good night.
24:56No, James, no, it's not that I particularly want to leave JJM.
25:01No, just that one likes to keep the old ear to the ground, you know.
25:04What?
25:05Oh, you've heard.
25:07Yes.
25:08Yes, well, all right, James, put it like that.
25:10Yes, I do want a job.
25:12No.
25:13No, of course not.
25:15No, well, it's just a thought.
25:17Well, I'll see you around, Santa James.
25:19Yeah, and to Margaret.
25:20Yes, you must both...
25:23I do hope you get dysentery soon, James.
25:27Oh, well, so much for James and Maggie Preston.
25:31At least we won't have to listen to any more of those interminable stories about her womb.
25:37I'm beginning to realise what it must have been like to have the plague.
25:39Yes.
25:40Even that social climber Veronica Naismith cut me dead in the hairdressers today.
25:44I hope you cut her back.
25:45I certainly did.
25:46Her auburn rinse is no longer a secret, Insurbiton.
25:50You know, Tom and Barbara are the only real friends we've got.
25:53I'm beginning to see that.
25:55It's just a shame they don't have any influence or money.
25:58I'm afraid we're heading for a recession.
26:00Well, we'll be able to economise on Christmas cards anyway.
26:04The number of people we've cut off our list.
26:07I've been thinking about having to economise, Jake.
26:10In fact, I've already made a start.
26:12Bless you.
26:14Well, you know Mrs Pearson comes in five days a week to clean?
26:18Yes.
26:19I've told her that from now on it'll only be three.
26:23Thank you, Margo.
26:28Sir, Ma and Pa Kettle from next door. Can we come in?
26:30Of course, Tom and Barbara.
26:32Have a drink?
26:33Oh, yes, please. I could use one.
26:35Who's been ruffling your feathers?
26:37The Marquis de Sade.
26:38Who?
26:39Sir, Andy.
26:41You've no idea how close I came to letting him have it with that bottle.
26:44When?
26:45Just now.
26:46We asked him round to try and persuade him to get Gerry his job back.
26:48Oh, that was kind.
26:50You'll never know how near he came to ending up in my effluence digester.
26:53Oh, don't mind, Tom. Thanks for trying, anyway.
26:55Oh, you can have your job back any time you like.
26:57What?
26:58Gerry!
26:59Oh, yes, just make your public confession.
27:00A couple of hours on the ducking stool.
27:02Sackcloth and ashes for a month.
27:03I'll be able to.
27:05Don't worry, he's got a lot to learn yet, that man.
27:07A lot to learn about people, that man, I can tell you.
27:09A lot to learn about Gerry.
27:10Right. If he really thinks that Gerry will simply...
27:13Hello, sir. Yes.
27:15Gerry here.
27:17Yes, yes, I see.
27:19Awfully decent of you about this, sir.
27:21Very decent indeed.
27:23Yes, yes. Oh, I absolutely agree, sir.
27:25Andrew and Felicity must come to dinner soon.
27:27Miss Margo says you must come round to dinner soon.
27:30Well, any time you like, sir.
27:32Open house here, you know that, sir.
27:34Shall we go and play with our chickens?
27:36Saturday, that would be fine, yes.
27:39How many?
27:40Eight.
27:41Yes, bring them all along.
27:43All Japanese.
27:45How interesting.
27:47I've always wanted to cook seaweed.
27:49I bet she's always wanted to cook seaweed.
27:51Yes.
