00:00I
00:33Get dressed.
00:34Frank.
00:35Get dressed.
00:45Irene.
00:46Sorry, sorry, I thought Peggy was in there.
00:49Is she, um...
00:50Yeah, she's on her way back, organising.
00:52Yes, yes, of course, of course.
00:54Irene, um...
00:55Please!
00:57Don't tell me it's not what I'm thinking.
00:58You're talking to me.
01:01No, I...
01:02I wouldn't do that, no.
01:05How could you do that to Peggy?
01:07There you are!
01:10Irene, please, Donnie.
01:11I would really appreciate it if you didn't say anything.
01:13Please.
01:14Please, sweetheart.
01:16Please.
01:16Hey!
01:17Hey!
01:18I've been looking for you.
01:19Yeah, yeah, yeah, I...
01:21I've just got back a little while ago, you know?
01:23I thought you'd still be at the bar, now.
01:24What have you been up to, eh?
01:26Just, uh, as I say, got back out of the shower and...
01:28Can't stand a pace, eh?
01:30That's the trouble.
01:31I can't stand a pace anymore.
01:40Roy's back.
01:43Yes, I know.
01:45I haven't said anything, if that's what you're wondering.
01:48No.
01:50I can hardly give the lecture, can I?
01:51I'd be like the pot calling the kettle black.
01:53I doubt you could say anything I'm not thinking myself.
01:57Coffee.
01:59Hello, sweetheart.
02:00Have a nice day.
02:02Yes, yes, lovely, thanks.
02:03Er, Peggy and Terry have just got back, so, er, we're gonna sit outside and have a drink.
02:07Can you join us?
02:08Oh, I'll be right out, love.
02:11What a mess we make of our lives, eh, Pat?
02:14I'd better go home.
02:20Tequila Slammers?
02:21Yeah.
02:22We thought we'd cheat ourselves, didn't we, darling?
02:24What are you poisoning yourself more like?
02:26Actually, I've got quite a taste from them, I can tell you.
02:29You all right, love?
02:30I've poured you a drink.
02:31Oh, thanks.
02:32Did you finish your book, Pat?
02:34No, not quite.
02:35Oh, I didn't even get mine out of the case.
02:38Talking to which, er, better get on with the packing.
02:40We don't want to leave it till morning, do we?
02:41What time's the flight?
02:43Er, flight's at 7.30, check-in, 5.30.
02:46Cavs are picking us up at 5.
02:48Oh, right.
02:48Not much point going to bed, is that?
02:50No.
02:51Oh, Pat.
02:53Looks like you've lost one of your earrings.
02:55Eh?
02:59I'll have a look for you, love.
03:01Were you by the pool?
03:02No, come to think of it, I heard something drop in the bathroom.
03:05It's probably in there.
03:06Yeah, well, I'm always doing that.
03:07I'll go and have a look for it.
03:08Well, come and have your drink first, eh?
03:09No, no, no, then I can make a start on the cases.
03:11You stay here, love.
03:13Oh, yeah.
03:14Yeah, she's right, Frank.
03:16Come on.
03:18We'd better get started.
03:19Yeah.
03:19Oh, yeah.
03:20Oops.
03:21Yeah.
03:21I'm sorry.
03:44I was just bringing your suntan lotion back.
03:47I borrowed it this afternoon.
03:48I hope you don't mind.
03:48No, of course not, darling.
03:50Help yourself.
03:51I don't mind sharing.
03:53Well, I'd better get on, hadn't I?
03:54Yeah, yeah, yeah.
04:01Hello, love.
04:02Where you been?
04:03Oh, I was just giving Peggy a suntan lotion back.
04:05Did you find your earring?
04:07No, no.
04:07I'll look for it later.
04:08Yeah, all right.
04:09Let's get on with the packing, shall we?
04:16Must be a job for you.
04:18Sorry?
04:20Knowing whether to pack or not.
04:23Terry, I really can't do this now.
04:27Well, you don't have to.
04:29Well, it gets nippy at night when the sun goes in, doesn't it?
04:39Yes, it does, darling.
04:40Now, darling, I'm going to leave everything we need out on the dressing table for the morning.
04:44Right, right.
04:45You know, I had a really nice afternoon with Irene.
04:49Oh, good, good.
04:50I haven't laughed like that in ages.
04:54Shame about her and Terry, though.
04:55Ah, yes, yes, yes.
04:56Yeah, mind you, I think she was starting to realise that he wasn't as bad as she thought he was.
05:01There you go.
05:02So, I hope they sort things out.
05:03Mm-hm.
05:04Tell you what, though, darling.
05:06What's that, darling?
05:06Made me realise how lucky we are.
05:08Yeah, absolutely.
05:09Frank?
05:10Yeah?
05:11Are you listening to me?
05:12Of course I am, sweetheart.
05:14What did I say, then?
05:16Ah, you said you made you realise how lucky you was.
05:20We were.
05:20We were, that's what I meant to say.
05:22I meant we were.
05:23The trouble with Irene is, though, she doesn't really know what she wants.
05:27Yeah.
05:27She says she feels trapped, like she's missing out on something, although I don't know what.
05:31I mean, she's got husband, home, money in the bank.
05:34I mean, what more could she want?
05:36Absolutely.
05:36Oh, dear.
05:37Pass me my pashmina, darling.
05:38Yeah, my pashmina, what, darling?
05:40Me shawl is behind you.
05:42Oh, no, you're shawl.
05:42It's getting cold.
05:43Oh, no, you're shawl, you're shawl.
05:44People always want something that they can't have.
05:47Yeah, I know, I know.
05:48I mean, if she didn't want Terry, I mean, why did she marry him in the first place?
05:52Yeah, you see, people don't take marriage seriously anymore.
05:57They don't work at it like they used to.
05:59Mm-hmm.
06:00I know they don't.
06:01I'll show you what, though, darling.
06:02They're going to have a lot of talking to her when they get back home.
06:05Here, here.
06:06Peggy.
06:07What?
06:07Get some cuddle, eh?
06:09Oh.
06:10Have you missed me, then?
06:12Mm-hmm.
06:13Oh.
06:15Frank, I want to tell you something.
06:18Look, when Irene and I went out this afternoon, we met a couple of fellas, had a drink.
06:22Yeah.
06:23I mean, there was nothing in it.
06:24Just chit-chat.
06:25Yeah.
06:26You don't mind, do you?
06:26No, of course I don't mind, anyone, as long as you enjoyed yourself, my sweetheart.
06:30Oh, you don't.
06:31Oh, I do, do.
06:33I love you.
06:34Oh, I love you, too, my darling.
06:35I really do.
06:37Well, I'll tell you what, how many times get in when you're going to carry them back, you know?
06:40Oh, you've got plenty of that to do, darling.
06:44You enjoy yourself today?
06:47Mm, didn't do much, just lays by the pool.
06:49Yeah, good for you.
06:51Very nice to get home, though, eh?
06:52Mm, yeah.
06:56You okay?
06:57You, uh, seem very quiet.
06:59Oh, just thinking about getting up at four in the morning, that's all.
07:02Yeah, well, we'll finish this lot of an early night, right?
07:04I think I'll have a shower first.
07:06Yeah, sure, go on, you carry on.
07:08I'll sort this lot out.
07:09Thanks.
07:29I need some water.
07:34Are you okay?
07:35No.
07:37All right, no, you've got a look.
07:38Frank, please don't.
07:47Paddling.
08:03It's been quite a week.
08:07Yeah.
08:11You and Frank.
08:12I was so wrapped up in my own problems.
08:13I didn't see that one coming.
08:16It wasn't like that.
08:18It just happened.
08:19I can hardly believe it myself.
08:21Like I said, I'm the last one to give you a lecture.
08:25But you disapprove?
08:27Who am I to judge?
08:29All I know is the pain it causes other people.
08:34It's the only part of that Troy thing that I regret looking back on it.
08:37What it might have done to Terry.
08:41And the fallout, if Roy or Peggy had walked into that room instead of me, it doesn't bear thinking about.
08:46I know.
08:48So what now?
08:50Get on a plane and forget it ever happened?
08:53I don't see I've got any other choice.
08:56And is that the way Frank sees it?
08:58Holiday fling?
09:03He doesn't, does he?
09:04We haven't had time to talk about it.
09:06Sounds like you better make time.
09:09Yeah.
09:11Pat.
09:13All finished, love.
09:15Shall we get an early night?
09:16Yeah.
09:18Goodnight, love.
10:22Is that the last one, though?
10:24Uh, no. The brown holder's on the bed with all the presents in it.
10:27I need a ruddy, forklift truck.
10:29Where are they? In your room.
10:30Oh, you're a good man. Thanks very much.
10:35Pat. I promise you. Pat!
10:45Pat, have you seen Terry?
10:47No, I haven't.
10:47Well, watch that little one. It's got breakables in it.
10:50Yeah, right.
10:50I think I'll take it on as hand luggage.
10:52Oh, yeah. Couldn't I do?
10:55Frank, do you know where Terry is?
10:57Sorry?
10:57Terry.
10:59No.
10:59No, I'm sorry, darling.
11:01I don't know.
11:19The cab's going to be here in ten minutes.
11:21Well, maybe he just went for a walk.
11:23Tell you, be here.
11:24Did he say anything to you?
11:26No, he was here a minute ago. No, he's gone.
11:28Think we should go and look for him.
11:29Oh, there he is.
11:31Oh, oh, right.
11:32Where have you been?
11:35I, er...
11:36I had something to do.
11:38Well, what?
11:42I'll show you.
11:43What? The cab's going...
11:44I won't be a minute.
11:45What?
11:46Now, where are they going?
11:49Oh.
11:55Come on.
11:56Not much further.
11:57I don't understand.
11:58What are we doing?
11:59I think they call it make-your-mind-up time.
12:01What?
12:02It's what I was doing yesterday.
12:04Yesterday what?
12:05There you are.
12:08Bought and paid for.
12:10There's a full tank of petrol.
12:12Your passport and ten grand in the glove compartment.
12:16Come on, Irene.
12:17This is what you wanted, isn't it?
12:18It's what you talked about.
12:20Going out into the big, wide world.
12:22Find out what you're missing out on.
12:24But not like this.
12:25Well, you've got five minutes to make your mind up.
12:28I can't.
12:29It's easy to talk about, isn't it?
12:31Bit scary, though, when it's for real.
12:33No one else to blame.
12:34Nothing holding you back.
12:36For once in your life,
12:38the only thing between you and the life you think you want is you.
12:44You want me to go?
12:46Oh, no.
12:47I want you to stay so much I feel sick.
12:51Then why all this?
12:53Because I need to know.
12:57If we get on that plane, I need to know you're there because you want to be.
13:01Not because you're killing time trying to decide what to do with your life.
13:05Don't you see?
13:07We can't go back now without doing this.
13:11Looking at you every day.
13:14Wondering if you'd rather be somewhere else.
13:15I can't fight something I can't see.
13:19You said you'd been waiting for something.
13:22For as long as you could remember.
13:23Waiting.
13:24Just once for the knock on the door to be opportunity
13:27rather than someone coming to read the gas meter.
13:29Well, here it is.
13:30A real 24-carat, in-your-face, life-changing moment.
13:42So what are you going to do, Irene?
13:45The open road?
13:47The wind in your hair?
13:48The chance to finally find out
13:50whether there really is something better out there?
13:53Or there's me.
13:55Terry Raymond.
13:57No promises, just more of the same.
13:59But I'll love you as best I can till the day I die.
14:04And just maybe,
14:06having had this
14:08chance
14:10and walked away from it
14:12will mean that
14:13you can love me too.
14:21I don't believe this.
14:22Frank,
14:23just give him a few more minutes, will you?
14:25Roy,
14:26do you know what's going on?
14:27He just needs ten minutes with her, that's all.
14:30He's out all week.
14:30Why now?
14:31I'm sure he'll explain later.
14:34Oh, great.
14:36Fellas, could you put the baggage in the taxi, please?
14:40All right.
14:41Thank you very much, indeed.
14:43We're going to have to go after him.
14:44No!
14:46Give him a few more minutes.
14:50I just can't go.
14:52Yes.
14:53You can.
14:54That's the whole point.
14:56If you don't like your life,
14:57then change it.
14:59You love me this much?
15:01The whole world, I'm back again.
15:03You know the saying about loving someone enough to let them go?
15:07Yeah.
15:08It's rubbish.
15:11I don't know what to do.
15:12Then stay.
15:14I won't have this conversation next week, next month.
15:16No.
15:17What you were saying was that you didn't have a choice.
15:19Your whole life was mapped out for you,
15:21and you were stuck with it, whether you liked it or not.
15:23Well, now you've got a choice.
15:25Choose me.
15:27I want to.
15:28Well, that's a start.
15:30Is it enough?
15:31You're the one with the keys in your hand.
15:34Those things you said about Troy, was all that true?
15:36Yeah.
15:39I didn't want to hurt you.
15:40I wanted you to know the truth.
15:42To drag me kicking and screaming back to my senses.
15:44To clear my head of all this romantic rubbish.
15:47Oh, that too.
15:49Do you really think we could be happy, Terry?
15:52I'm staking my life on it.
15:55And all this?
15:56To make sure you stay with me through choice, not circumstance.
16:00Oh, a bit of a gamble.
16:02Well, you know me.
16:03Yeah.
16:07First time I'm shaking, waiting for a result.
16:12The question is, could you live with it if I go?
16:18No.
16:19It's could you live with it if you don't.
16:24Not sure.
16:26It'd be a hell of a thing to tell the grandchildren.
16:28Oh, wouldn't it just?
16:31You know there's nothing and no one out there can love you as much as I do.
16:37I believe that.
16:39Well, then let's start with that and build from there.
16:43We can be like everyone else, like Roy and Pat and Frank and Peggy.
16:47You know, grow old together.
16:50You know what?
16:52I think that's what worries me.
17:08What are you doing, then?
17:10You're coming home.
17:16No.
17:18When you did all this, you knew that would happen, didn't you?
17:20Yeah.
17:20But you did it anyway.
17:22I thought I'd give it a shot.
17:24Silly old sod.
17:29Nah.
17:30Eternal octopus, that's me.
17:34I really do love you, you know.
17:38Anna.
17:53I don't want you to come back.
17:56I couldn't bear the waiting.
18:01I can't hear you, you know.
18:10No, it's not that easy.
18:12It's too long, yeah.
18:13It's all the time for a service.
18:15Roy.
18:17One minute.

20:06Let's get it to the people, let's bring things down here and eat.
20:10Who has to buy the equipment? So if you have everything done with your kids, the equipment are done.
20:16Keep it up, don't let go away, pull it up.
20:19And while your husband bows, who cares?
20:22Your husband has to have to take long, you've got to go to the airport.
20:25What is happening? Still can't do it, but don't let go away, woman!
20:29but you don't care, you give the same one.
20:32What a hell!
20:33You tell me one day what you were saying.
20:35That's a lie!
20:37He's dead!
20:38He's dead!
20:39He's dead, he's dead!
20:40He's dead!
20:40He's dead with a man!
20:43He's dead!
20:44He's dead!
20:44I hope he's dead!
21:45You all right, love?
21:47Yeah.
21:48I assume I'm a bit quiet, that's all.
21:49I think I've got a headache coming up.
21:51You're taking anything for it?
21:52No, no, no, I won't go soon, love.
21:54Here, Frank, it says here, a wife in Southampton found out her husband was having an affair,
22:03waited until he was asleep, before pouring a kettle of boiling water all over his bits.
22:11Bits?
22:15Oh, can I have a Scotch, young lady, please?
22:19Thank you for it, my dad.
22:20Can I just unamash him?
22:22Really Englishman, thank you.
22:25Then she cut up all his clothes and set fire to him in his car.
22:30It's been over the top, ain't it?
22:32Too good for him, if you ask me.
22:33I prefer the Bobbitt approach.
22:42I'll tell you what, sweetheart.
22:44I'm just going to make some room for them.
22:46What's that?
22:46I'll be a second.
22:47Oh, yeah.
22:49Pat.
22:51You can't keep running away like this, you know.
22:53I wish I'd done it sooner, then I wouldn't be feeling like this.
22:54Look, I know it was terrible at wearing walking the other night.
22:56I've made plenty of mistakes in the life more than most, but that was a real hump dinner, even for
23:00me.
23:01Sorry.
23:05Frank, just tell me one thing.
23:06What?
23:06You won't say anything to Roy.
23:08What have you got me down as a complete idiot?
23:10You couldn't bear it.
23:11Listen to me, I don't want to hurt Roy any more than I want to hurt Peggy.
23:14Then we're agreed on one thing.
23:15Good, good.
23:17Well, my God, I'll see you again.
23:19You are joking.
23:22Hey, I meant everything that I said.
23:24Forget it, Frank.
23:25It's not going to happen.
23:26How can you say that after yesterday?
23:29Can we put it down to too much sun and forget about it?
23:32No, we can't.
23:34And Peggy?
23:36We can keep on Alaska.
23:38You know what I mean, Frank.
23:40Now, come on, we're not 16 anymore.
23:42We're both married.
23:43Honestly, I think that we can carry on like nothing's happened.
23:47Yes.
23:48Well, I can't.
23:50That's your problem.
23:56Don't even think about it.
24:04So, what happened to that?
24:06I can honestly say I haven't a clue.
24:09I feel empty.
24:12I don't know how I'd cope.
24:14Let's hope you never have to.
24:20You can go next for it.
24:22I'll show you my mind.
24:28Stop it, Frank.
24:28I'm not doing this.
24:29At least we're going to discuss this.
24:31I've got a million questions running around this side of my head.
24:33And the answer to every one of them is no.
24:35Oh, but you can't mean that.
24:38Yes, I can.
24:40I love Roy.
24:41He deserves better.
24:42And so does Peggy.
24:44What about us?
24:46Oh, Frank, there hasn't been an us in a long time.
24:52And yesterday?
24:55It didn't happen.
24:56Oh, no, no, no, no.
24:57I'm not having that.
24:58I'm not going to buy that one, darling.
24:59Because I know you for the same as I do inside.
25:01Please, please be honest about it, please.
25:02You're Frank Butcher.
25:03You don't even know how to spell on this.
25:06Hey, hey.
25:08I'm not leaving it like this.
25:10I'm not giving you the choice.
25:25Hey, um.
25:26Should I go and get a cab, yeah?
25:28There's a rank there, Roy.
25:29Yeah, right.
25:29I'll go and grab a couple.
25:30OK, mate.
25:32Are you all right, love?
25:34I think reality has just kicked in.
25:36I know what you mean.
25:40No, I can't get over Irene.
25:43Who would have thought it, eh?
25:45Yeah, yeah.
25:46Um, would you do that for me?
25:49Do what?
25:50Just let me go like that.
25:52Well, I suppose if that's what you really wanted, yeah.
25:55Yeah?
25:56Well, you don't get rid of me that easy.
26:15Well, at least the pop's still standing.
26:17Hey, um, tell me, um, can you hold on to one of these?
26:19Um, no, I'd rather walk.
26:21Roy's been a great time here.
26:23Yeah.
26:23Now it is yours.
26:24See you later.
26:25Oh, see you later.
26:26All right, darling.
26:27Don't worry.
26:27OK?
26:28And Terry, don't forget, if you need anything, even if it's just a chap, you know where we
26:33are, don't you?
26:34Go forward with us, mate.
26:35Yeah.
26:35Thanks very much.
26:36Cheers, mate.
26:37Cheers.
26:39Terry.
26:41I'm going to be on the coast.
26:43Yeah.
26:47Yeah.
27:03I'm going to be on the coast.
27:42I'm going to be on the coast.
28:05I'm going to be on the coast.
