00:00:02,670 --> 00:00:04,Here I go again.

00:00:04,950 --> 00:00:07,I hear the trumpet blow again.

00:00:08,610 --> 00:00:11,All of low again.

00:00:11,710 --> 00:00:14,Taking a chance on love.

00:00:15,370 --> 00:00:18,Here I slide again.

00:00:18,770 --> 00:00:21,About to take that ride again.

00:00:23,090 --> 00:00:25,Sorry I'd again.

00:00:25,610 --> 00:00:28,Taking a chance on love.

00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,Things are mending now.

00:00:32,820 --> 00:00:35,I see a rainbow blending now.

00:00:36,380 --> 00:00:39,Still have a happy ending now.

00:00:39,940 --> 00:00:40,Taken.

00:00:41,700 --> 00:00:43,Taken a chance on love.

00:00:49,500 --> 00:00:50,Good morning.

00:00:50,780 --> 00:00:51,Good afternoon, madam.

00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,Oh, yes, there it is. Good afternoon.

00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,And I've arranged to meet my cousin
here, Mr. Chesney.

00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,Mr Thomas Chesney. I was wondering if
he'd arrived yet.

00:01:02,140 --> 00:01:03,No. Ah.

00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,Not actually quite sure what he looks
like. I haven't seen him since I was

00:01:09,011 --> 00:01:13,But he's a chartered surveyor from
Hartlepool. You're quite sure there's

00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:14,Quite sure, madam.

00:01:14,700 --> 00:01:17,Ah. Well, I'll just wait if you don't
mind.

00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:23,And if anyone should ask for Miss Alison
Little... Thank

00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,you so much.

00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:06,No, sir, yes. Trying to find a woman.
Ah, this is a no -tell, sir. I don't

00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,really think so. No, no, no. Um, blind
date.

00:02:09,161 --> 00:02:11,Computer matchmaking stuff.

00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:15,No, Trance, Tom Trance, arranged me to
Miss Allerton Thew, said she'd be

00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,a pink and white dress. Any sign?

00:02:17,241 --> 00:02:20,No, I haven't seen any one of that
description, sir, no.

00:02:20,220 --> 00:02:21,Ah, yes. Uh, coat.

00:02:21,761 --> 00:02:23,I beg your pardon, sir?

00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:24,Coat? It's hanging up.

00:02:26,420 --> 00:02:27,Yes, sir.

00:02:28,060 --> 00:02:29,Put this back for you.

00:02:29,620 --> 00:02:30,Thank you.

00:02:39,791 --> 00:02:44,Bit loose, that. Ought to be fixed.
Could be dangerous.

00:02:44,820 --> 00:02:47,We're very grateful to you for pointing
it out, sir.

00:02:47,580 --> 00:02:49,Girl arrives in bar.

00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,OK? Yes, thank you.

00:02:56,660 --> 00:02:59,Not... Not Alice?

00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:01,Yes, I think so.

00:03:01,780 --> 00:03:02,You must be Tom.

00:03:03,260 --> 00:03:04,G***t it in one.

00:03:04,311 --> 00:03:08,Idiot behind the desk said you hadn't
arrived yet. No, I wasn't entirely sure

00:03:08,420 --> 00:03:09,noticed me when I did.

00:03:09,860 --> 00:03:10,Never mind.

00:03:13,700 --> 00:03:14,Nice to meet you.

00:03:15,100 --> 00:03:16,Drink? Anything special?

00:03:16,421 --> 00:03:19,Oh, whatever you're having would be...
Would be fine, fine, good.

00:03:19,300 --> 00:03:20,Coat? Yes.

00:03:29,820 --> 00:03:32,Two pints of lager, please.

00:03:32,021 --> 00:03:33,Table over there.

00:03:33,740 --> 00:03:37,The bar is open, sir. I don't quite
follow you. Well, they serve drinks in

00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,bar, sir. It is now open.

00:03:39,740 --> 00:03:42,Don't want a drink in the bar. If did,
would obviously go there.

00:03:42,811 --> 00:03:45,Ordered too difficult or something?

00:03:45,020 --> 00:03:47,I'll bring them to your table, sir.
Good.

00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:48,On your way.

00:03:48,891 --> 00:03:50,Yes, sir?

00:03:50,340 --> 00:03:51,Coat. Needs hanging.

00:03:52,531 --> 00:03:54,G***t

00:03:54,020 --> 00:04:04,here

00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:05,all right, then?

00:04:05,180 --> 00:04:07,Oh, yes. I came straight from the
library by bus.

00:04:07,940 --> 00:04:09,Ah. Bye.

00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,Went on a bus once.

00:04:12,460 --> 00:04:13,Not a good idea.

00:04:13,860 --> 00:04:16,Only one seat covered in orange peel.

00:04:16,481 --> 00:04:19,Back of seat in front covered in four
-letter words.

00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:24,Married couple in row behind having
blazing row. Child across gangway puked

00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,the aisle.

00:04:27,660 --> 00:04:29,Bloke next door exposed himself.

00:04:31,420 --> 00:04:32,G***t off at the next stop.

00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:34,Not surprised.

00:04:35,060 --> 00:04:37,No. Bus going in wrong direction.

00:04:41,020 --> 00:04:45,Exactly. One pound and ninety -six
pence, please. One pound and ninety -six

00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:46,pence.

00:04:46,700 --> 00:04:49,Excluding gratuity, sir. Yes, thank you.
Thank you.

00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:51,Thank you, sir.

00:04:52,280 --> 00:04:56,Look, um, thought we might go out for
dinner this evening.

00:04:56,660 --> 00:04:57,Oh, lovely.

00:04:57,820 --> 00:04:58,But first...

00:05:10,990 --> 00:05:12,One that's come clean.

00:05:14,010 --> 00:05:15,Saves disappointment later.

00:05:15,710 --> 00:05:16,Get my meaning?

00:05:16,770 --> 00:05:17,Not really, no.

00:05:18,190 --> 00:05:21,Two people meeting each other for the
first time.

00:05:21,390 --> 00:05:22,Obviously, expectations.

00:05:23,070 --> 00:05:26,But certain things bound to come out
later.

00:05:26,490 --> 00:05:29,Better to let it all out at once.
Everything up front. Agreed?

00:05:30,050 --> 00:05:32,You mean sort of confession time?

00:05:32,031 --> 00:05:33,Sort of, yes.

00:05:33,230 --> 00:05:35,Oh, yes. Well, that seems like a good
idea.

00:05:35,670 --> 00:05:39,I suppose I could start by admitting
that I'm not actually a parent.

00:05:40,539 --> 00:05:41,Sorry, misunderstanding.

00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:43,Not you to confess.

00:05:44,140 --> 00:05:49,Me. Ah, oh, I see. Yes, that would
probably be a lot more interesting. Long

00:05:49,840 --> 00:05:52,story, though. Patience. Oh, yes, I'm a
very good listener.

00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:53,Well, good.

00:05:54,100 --> 00:05:55,Start with basic principles.

00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,Your mother ever make plum crumble?

00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:05,Plum crumble?

00:06:06,140 --> 00:06:07,Yes.

00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,Well, yes, she still does, as a matter
of fact.

00:06:10,350 --> 00:06:14,Tried to take all the stones out first,
yet always one left.

00:06:14,351 --> 00:06:18,It's funny you should say that. There
usually is. It's always the father who

00:06:18,450 --> 00:06:19,finds it.

00:06:19,650 --> 00:06:20,Precisely.

00:06:21,630 --> 00:06:25,Coincidence. That happens all the time,
all over the world. Very little known

00:06:25,750 --> 00:06:26,about it.

00:06:26,350 --> 00:06:30,Coincidence. Man in Virginia struck by
lightning seven times.

00:06:30,730 --> 00:06:32,Seven times. Seems incredible.

00:06:32,271 --> 00:06:35,Absolutely true. Looked it up in the
Guinness Book of Records. Isn't that

00:06:35,350 --> 00:06:38,strange? A woman in Penang...

00:06:38,570 --> 00:06:41,had 14 husbands, all committed suicide.

00:06:41,730 --> 00:06:45,All? 14. Incredible. Now, come to point.

00:06:47,070 --> 00:06:52,I'm personally, persistently plagued by
coincidence.

00:06:52,810 --> 00:06:59,Ah, you mean that in life's great
crumble, as it were, it's always you who

00:06:59,670 --> 00:07:00,finds the plumbstone.

00:07:01,830 --> 00:07:03,Dog b***e. Every time.

00:07:04,730 --> 00:07:08,Book into wrong hotel, pick up wrong
suitcase, drive off in wrong car,

00:07:08,510 --> 00:07:10,identity. Happens to me all the time.

00:07:11,810 --> 00:07:15,And do you think this could be a serious
drawback to a relationship?

00:07:15,290 --> 00:07:20,Could be. Could be. Still, there have
it. Could both stop now, go our separate

00:07:20,630 --> 00:07:22,ways. Wouldn't blame you at all.

00:07:22,970 --> 00:07:26,Wouldn't hold any hard feelings,
whatever. Put off plenty of women before

00:07:27,970 --> 00:07:29,Still.

00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,Give you a moment to decide. G***t to go
to the little boy's room.

00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,Lager goes through me like a
hydroelectric power scheme.

00:07:44,060 --> 00:07:45,Back shortly.

00:08:12,581 --> 00:08:14,Can you lift the library?

00:08:14,620 --> 00:08:17,Oh, thank you. That'd be very nice.
Good, good.

00:08:19,900 --> 00:08:21,Ah, yes, uh...

00:08:21,580 --> 00:08:33,Yes,

00:08:33,860 --> 00:08:36,sir? Codes, please. And, uh, manager...
