01:00You're losing far too much cream, nurse.
01:07Is that enough, Miss Winder?
01:09Yes, that's better.
01:12Don't forget the heels.
01:17Yes, that's coming along nicely, girls.
01:24Make sure it's good and tight. No movement at all.
01:30Oh, far too loose. Try again, will you?
01:46Yes, that's really good.
01:49Good.
01:51You did tell her you were going to take up that pressure, didn't you?
01:55Oh, yes, Miss Winder.
01:56That's right. You must always do that, you know.
01:58Otherwise the patient could be quite frightened.
02:05No, the other way around with the pillow, nurse.
02:07The opening away from the door, always.
02:13That's quite hopeless, Nurse Rutherford.
02:16Take it off and start again.
02:20Yes, good.
02:22Miss Winder, if it's gone four o'clock...
02:24Now, all the corners must be correctly mitered,
02:27even the ones we don't see under the pillows.
02:29Try that one again, will you?
02:37I thought I told you to re-bandage that patient, Nurse Rutherford.
02:41But it's gone four, Miss Winder.
02:43So you'd leave your patient to bleed to death.
02:47Well done, girls.
02:50Fine.
02:52Now, uh, strip it.
02:54What?
02:56Class is finished for today, nurse.
02:59Put the blankets on here.
03:02And the sheets in the laundry bin.
03:06All right, girls, you can start tidying up now.
03:14In the laundry, Nurse Rutherford.
03:17Why?
03:18Because it's no longer sterile.
03:20Well, you won't get blood poisoning if I use it again tomorrow, will you?
03:23I said, laundry.
03:28I thought I told you to strip that bed, Nurse.
03:30But it's beautiful, Miss Winder.
03:33Every bed you ever make should be a thing of beauty.
03:37Now, uh, who has the watch?
03:39Oh, here it is, Miss Winder.
03:41Ah, thank you, Nurse.
03:42Try to find your own or get yourself another one, will you?
03:45Sorry.
03:46And the scissors, Nurse Regan.
03:48Why give them back, Miss Winder?
03:50Not to me.
03:51Uh, no, I left them in the desk.
04:00Who took the scissors from my desk?
04:02Nurse Sorrell, did you take them?
04:04No, Miss Winder, these are mine.
04:06Oh, all right, thank you.
04:07Good night.
04:08Clean the blackboard, Nurse Regan.
04:10Oh, I've got an appointment, Miss Winder.
04:13Good night, Nurse Vicks.
04:14Good night, Nurse.
04:21I don't know why they don't use duvets.
04:25I thought you were in a hurry tonight.
04:27Won't be long.
04:30Hurry up, girls.
04:54Oh!
04:55One must always endure to avoid throwing one's patient out of bed, Nurse Morovan.
05:12What time is she expecting us?
05:13Anticap.
05:14Anytime.
05:15Soon as we can get out there.
05:18You haven't told me where she lives.
05:20It's near Crystal Palace.
05:22That's the back of Beyond.
05:24Won't take long.
05:25I say it won't.
05:26I've looked it up.
05:27We get a bus to Victoria, then a Southern Region train, then another bus.
05:31It won't take long, really.
05:33Yes, it will.
05:34Hours.
05:35Oh, you are still coming, aren't you, Pat?
05:38You promised.
05:39Look, it's you she wants to see.
05:41No, Pat.
05:42Soon as I said I had a friend, she said to bring you right away.
05:46Please, Pat.
05:50All right.
05:51It's better than looking at that all evening, I suppose.
05:54Yes, it is awful, isn't it?
05:56There's not much we can do about it.
05:59Yes, there is.
06:00If you go about it the right way.
06:03What?
06:05I might, just might, be moving up next week.
06:08Up where?
06:09Up where?
06:10One of the front rooms upstairs.
06:11Upstairs?
06:12That's right.
06:13But...
06:14But what?
06:15You don't know anyone up there.
06:17Well, I will.
06:18I know my way around a bit better now.
06:26What have you done?
06:31You clown.
06:32I'm sorry, Pat.
06:33I don't really understand about those brushes.
06:35Well, that's the lipstick brush for a start.
06:39Oh, is that Kate Jennings?
06:41Yeah.
07:25I'm terribly sorry.
07:40Oh, you've done it now.
07:41Done what?
07:42That was Sister Eastby.
07:43Most shining of the top brass.
07:45Oh.
07:46God help you if you hit her ward, that's all.
07:48She takes notes.
07:49Was that her...?
07:50Her notebook, yes.
07:51Oh, Pat, whatever can I do?
07:53In case she forgets, that's all.
07:56What have you done to your lips?
07:58I'm sorry, Pat.
08:00Well, it's too late to do anything about it now.
08:02Do you know, I'm so hungry, I could eat a diseased pancreas.
08:05Would you like to have something in the canteen before we go?
08:08Oh, not likely at Shepherd's Pie tonight.
08:10You said it wouldn't take long, didn't you?
08:12Well, why is it away for a bus or something?
08:20Are you coming or not?
08:22Pat, it's Jenny Sorrell from class.
08:24Couldn't we bring her too?
08:25What, to Auntie Gath's?
08:26She wouldn't mind, I'm sure she wouldn't.
08:28After all, I only had to tell her about you and she said to bring you along.
08:32Come on.
08:39Every ten to twelve minutes.
08:41Well, we've been waiting for longer than that already.
08:43There'll be one soon, then.
08:48It's a lovely evening, anyway.
08:50It's starting to rain.
08:51No, it's not. You're imagining it, Pat.
08:53I am not.
09:02What about a taxi?
09:03No, no, no.
09:05What about a taxi?
09:06It's a long way.
09:07But you said it wasn't far.
09:09Well, there's a bit of a walk the other end.
09:11Oh, my God.
09:13Never mind.
09:15It's nice just being out, in fresh air, among real people.
09:19Excuse me, are you girls waiting for the bus?
09:22Yes, we are.
09:23Well, would you move over?
09:25There is a queue, you know.
09:52Is there any point in asking where we are?
09:54I'm not sure.
09:56Well, it's one way of seeing London, I suppose.
09:59Oh, Pat.
10:00Yeah, I'm sorry you came, are you?
10:02It's my birthday, you'll see.
10:04Just think, a real home-cooked dinner,
10:07round a fire, with a family.
10:16Maybe she's made some Kerry cakes.
10:19Some what?
10:20Kerry cakes.
10:21Mammy was always talking about Auntie Cat's Kerry cakes.
10:25She said they had to be tasted to be believed.
10:27What are they?
10:28Don't know.
10:29Some sort of cakes, I suppose.
10:31Or biscuits, or maybe pudding.
10:33They're marvellous.
10:34Mammy always said so.
10:36She's a wonderful cook, Auntie Cat.
10:54More, dear?
10:55Oh, no thanks, Auntie Cat.
10:57Honestly, it was lovely, but no thanks.
11:01We just love shepherd's pie.
11:03A change from what you usually get, I expect.
11:07But, of course, I don't bother much these days.
11:10Get it over and done with,
11:12and then have the evening to settle down to and enjoy.
11:17Moreen was telling me about your Kerry cakes, Mrs Riley.
11:20My what?
11:21Your Kerry cakes.
11:22Mammy said how marvellous they were.
11:24Oh.
11:25Oh, I dare say.
11:27That's a long time since I made any of them.
11:38I'm sorry, I've got to go.
11:40I've got to go.
11:41I'm sorry, I've got to go.
11:43I've got to go.
11:44I've got to go.
11:54It's a lovely house.
11:56It's a bit on the small side.
11:58Handy for the shops, though.
12:00What does your son do? Barry, is it?
12:02Barney. He works in the city.
12:04Oh, what at?
12:05Insurance.
12:06Oh.
12:15What do you make of the situation in Belfast, Mrs Riley?
12:19But then, of course, it isn't just Belfast any longer, is it?
12:22I've never been to Belfast.
12:25But it's Ireland, isn't it?
12:28Pat, Auntie Cath comes from Mill Street in Cork, right down south.
12:33We all come from the south.
12:45How's your mother, Maureen?
12:47Oh, she's fine, just fine.
12:51And how many brothers and sisters have you now?
12:54Well, there's Patrick, of course. He's the eldest.
12:57You'll be remembering Patrick.
12:59He's the real little man now.
13:01Runs the farm, if Mammy will let him.
13:03Kate, she's so handy about the house.
13:06I made sure she could manage a bit before I left,
13:08to make up for me not being there.
13:10She's marvellous with the boys.
13:12And Sean, then. Mad about boats, he is.
13:15Soon as he's old enough, he'll be off to sea.
13:17Mammy says no, but I'm sure of it.
13:19Patrick's more interested in the farm.
13:22You'll miss them, I suppose.
13:25Yes.
13:27Yes, I do.
13:43Do you ever hear from Uncle Brian?
13:46Not since it happened.
13:50What happened?
13:54Are you sure you wouldn't like a cup of tea, Maureen?
13:57Well, yes.
13:58I'll put the kettle on.
14:13You all right, Pat?
14:15Fine. Just fine.
14:17You aren't finding all this awfully dull?
14:19No, madly exciting.
14:20Because if you are, just say so.
14:22I said I'm fine.
14:25Pat, you, Barney?
14:26Right first time.
14:28Bathroom.
14:29OK.
14:31Well, hello.
14:34Barney.
14:36This is Maureen.
14:38Cousin Maureen.
14:40Maureen.
14:41Cousin Maisie's girl.
14:43And her friend Patricia.
14:45Pleased to meet you, Patricia.
14:47Hello.
14:48Your dinner's in the oven.
14:49You never said you were going to be late.
14:50No, never.
14:51Well, so what do you girls do then?
14:53Students?
14:54Nursing students.
14:55Oh.
14:56Worth getting ill for, I should say.
15:00It's all right, Mam. I'll do it.
15:01You stay where you are.
15:02I might need a little bit of help, though.
15:04Yes, it's time I did something for myself.
15:06I'll show you where the things are, eh?
15:07Right.
15:08Excuse us.
15:10Excuse us.
15:16Known her long, have you?
15:18Pat, not long.
15:19Just since I started training.
15:21A few weeks, then.
15:22That's right.
15:24You want to be careful who you get friendly with.
15:26A young girl like you on her own.
15:28Oh, I know.
15:29That's why I'm so glad I met Pat.
15:32I'm worried about Barney.
15:34Oh?
15:35He's lapsed, you know.
15:36Oh, I am sorry.
15:37He needs a nice, steady girl to settle him down.
15:40A nice, steady Catholic girl.
15:42Yes, I expect so.
15:44Are you engaged, Maureen?
15:45Engaged?
15:47A young man back home, anything like that?
15:49No.
15:51Oh.
15:52That's good, then.
15:56Taking a long time out there, aren't they?
15:59I think I'd better get out there.
16:02Where's that tea, then?
16:03Oh, just coming, Mrs Riley.
16:05I think I'd better get out there.
16:07No, honestly, Auntie Kath.
16:08She's awfully good, Pat, is it?
16:09Fixing things.
16:10I can imagine it.
16:13I'm sorry I took so long.
16:14Oops.
16:15Um, we couldn't find a tray.
16:20It'll be a good strong cup.
16:27They make awful tea here, don't they, Auntie Kath?
16:30I haven't had a decent cup since I left home.
16:32Would you like a drop of hot water than that, then, Maureen?
16:34Oh, no, it's perfect.
16:37Getting to know each other, then, were you?
16:39Pat's been taking more blood pressure.
16:43How?
16:45By gazing into my eyes.
16:49Right, well, I'm off, all right?
16:51Don't you want anything else, then?
16:53No, uh...
16:57Uh, no, I can't give that a miss, all right?
16:59Well, where are you off to, then?
17:00I thought I might go out west for a change.
17:02Oh, take your scarf. It's bitter cold outside.
17:04Yeah, OK, then.
17:05Nice to meet you, Arlene.
17:07Maureen.
17:08Maureen, sorry.
17:21Is your tea all right, Maureen?
17:22Oh, it's lovely, thanks.
17:24Well, now that we have a bit of peace and quiet,
17:26I've got something that you'd be interested in.
17:29Oh, what?
17:30I've got some old John McCormack records.
17:32You'd like to hear them now, wouldn't you?
17:34Oh, I'd love it.
17:35And some by Father Sidney McKeown, if your friend would be interested.
17:37Oh, I'm sure she would.
17:39Pat?
17:41Pat, are you all right?
17:43Yes, I'm fine.
17:44Are you sure?
17:46It's just a touch of migraine, that's all.
17:48Oh, Pat. I'll be all right in a few minutes.
17:52Oh, I'm sorry, Mrs Riley, for being such a bore.
17:55Poor Pat.
17:57That came on all of a sudden, didn't it?
17:59It always does.
18:01I'll be OK in a minute.
18:02You will not.
18:06Do you remember Auntie Kath?
18:07Auntie Bridie used to get migraine, blind as a bat she was,
18:10and laid up for days sometimes.
18:12Can't they give you something at the hospital for that?
18:16I'm sorry, Auntie Kath. I'd better get her home so she can lie down.
18:19There's no need to trouble. I can find my way.
18:21You cannot.
18:22I'm perfectly all right on my own.
18:29I'm absolutely glad you made us come back by train.
18:31We're so much quicker.
18:33You're looking better.
18:35Oh, the attack doesn't last long. It's nearly over now.
18:38Yeah, look, Auntie Bridie used to be laid up for days.
18:41Yes, so you said.
18:42Why are we going this way?
18:44Back to the hospital.
18:46No, we go by the main road.
18:51We should have turned left back there.
18:53Pat, you're better, aren't you?
18:55I don't feel like going in just yet.
18:57You should, you know. You should lie down.
19:06You've probably got a touch of flu.
19:08I'm perfectly all right, I tell you.
19:11Well, perhaps the fresh air might be best.
19:17This place gives me the willies.
19:19Well, there's no need for you to come.
19:21And suppose you got knocked over?
19:23And why should I get knocked over?
19:25Well, you can't see properly, can you?
19:27Auntie Bridie never could when she had an attack.
19:31But it's much better now.
19:33Oh, I am glad.
19:40Oh, do please go home, Maureen.
19:42I'd hate to think I'd spoil your evening.
19:44But you aren't spoiling it.
19:45Honestly, Pat.
19:48Ooh!
19:53As a matter of fact, I feel like a drink.
19:56Do you think that's a good idea?
19:58Yes, I do.
19:59Well, if you say so.
20:02You can find your way back to the hospital, can't you?
20:04It's not far.
20:05I couldn't let you go in there alone.
20:07Oh, for God's sake!
20:18Come on.
20:19Come on.
20:20Come on.
20:21Come on.
20:22Come on.
20:23Come on.
20:24Come on.
20:25Come on.
20:26Come on.
20:27Come on.
20:28Come on.
20:29Come on.
20:30Come on.
20:31Come on.
20:32Come on.
20:33Come on.
20:34Come on.
20:35Come on.
20:36Come on.
20:37Come on.
20:38Come on.
20:39Come on.
20:40Come on.
20:41Come on.
20:42Come on.
20:43Come on.
20:44Come on.
20:45Come on.
20:46Come on.
20:47Come on.
20:48Come on.
20:49Come on.
20:50Come on.
20:51Come on.
20:52Come on.
20:53Come on.
20:54Come on.
20:55Come on.
20:56Come on.
20:57What do you have?
20:58Oh, no.
20:59I couldn't.
21:00I brought you here, it's the least I can do.
21:02What do you want?
21:03Oh, just some lemonade, or something.
21:05Lemonade?
21:06Something soft.
21:07No gin?
21:08Vodka?
21:09Anything?
21:10I don't, you see.
21:11Don't what?
21:12Drink.
21:13I promise not to.
21:14Not till I'm 21.
21:15Come on.
21:16You promised who?
21:17For confirmation.
21:18But you had a drink with me, remember, the night we arrived.
21:21Oh, but that was a very special occasion.
21:23So long as you don't go to hell for it.
21:25Oh, no, Pat. It's a very venial sin.
21:27Really, Pat.
21:28You relieve my mind.
21:30Bit of lemon, then?
21:31Sounds lovely.
21:32Right, grab a table. I'll bring them, OK?
21:34I'd like gin and tonic, please, and a bit of lemon.
22:10Shall we have it?
22:12Hope you like it.
22:18Cheers.
22:22Cheers.
22:28All right?
22:29Fine.
22:30It is bitter, though, isn't it?
22:32That's the general idea.
22:33I could get you some squash if you'd like.
22:35Oh, no, this is lovely, Pat.
22:38Why don't you take your coat off?
22:41We aren't staying long, are we?
22:43Why not? It's nice here.
22:45Anyway, that's the way you catch a cold,
22:47keeping your coat on when going out.
22:49Oh.
22:54You never go off duty, do you?
22:56What do you mean?
23:00Oh, I forget.
23:01It's a job, isn't it?
23:03It is.
23:05Oh, I forget.
23:06It's just common sense.
23:11Tell me, are all your family like that?
23:13Like what?
23:14Like Auntie Cath.
23:16Oh, no.
23:18Oh, that's something.
23:20She's got her eye on you, hasn't she?
23:22What do you mean?
23:23That son of hers.
23:24Barney?
23:25Oh, no, Pat.
23:26Yeah, you could tell by the way she looked at you.
23:28Oh, surely she could not. She barely knows me.
23:30Nice Catholic girl, though, aren't you?
23:32Nice and steady.
23:37Do you like him?
23:38Yes, I suppose so.
23:41He seems nice, but...
23:43Well, he's a bit rough, isn't he?
23:46Hmm, rough and ready.
23:48I don't think he's my type, really.
23:50Seem.
23:53What?
23:54Type's old-fashioned. He's not your seem.
23:58Oh, yes.
23:59Oh, hang on.
24:00Sorry.
24:02Sorry.
24:09Do you think he's in the IRA?
24:10Pat!
24:11No, seriously.
24:12That's a terrible thing to say.
24:13Wouldn't put it past him.
24:14Or her.
24:15She shut up like a clam when I mentioned Ireland.
24:17Well, of course she would. People don't like to talk.
24:19Bet there's an outside loo packed full of explosives.
24:23You like another one?
24:24Pat, honestly, they come from Cork.
24:26There's no IRA down there.
24:27Look, I'm having another one. Do you want one?
24:29Do you think you should?
24:30Yes, I do.
24:31Well, I've got lots left.
24:32All right, then.
24:39Maman, can you tuck that up for me, please?
24:43Excuse me.
24:45Would you think it very pushing of, if I joined,
24:48seeing it's just you and your friends?
24:50Of course not. Do sit down.
24:51It's very nice of you, dear.
25:02You never like sitting here on my own, do you?
25:05Oh, no, no.
25:07Your friend said it was all right if I sat down.
25:10You don't mind, do you, dear?
25:12It's not very nice sitting in these places on your own, is it?
25:16Well, why come, then?
25:18Oh, I came with my friend, only we had a tiny disagreement,
25:22and I didn't like to go home, not just yet,
25:25so I thought I'd stay a while.
25:26You don't mind, do you, dear?
25:29You're not expecting anyone, are you?
25:32Well, I'm not.
25:33Of course not.
25:34Well, that's all right, then.
25:42I'm Beryl.
25:43I'm Maureen, and this is Pat.
25:46You're from St Andrews, aren't you?
25:48How did you know?
25:49I saw you both coming out earlier when I met my friend.
25:53Are you a nurse?
25:54Yes, I'm over at the Russell General.
25:58We're just students, you know.
26:01We're all off duty now, aren't we?
26:06Does your friend work at St Angeles?
26:08Yes.
26:09Would we know him?
26:11Not if you're students, no, dear.
26:20What are you going to have, then?
26:22This one's on me.
26:25It's nice here.
26:28Well, it's a bit quiet.
26:30The island's up this road.
26:33You come here often, then?
26:34We usually meet for a drink on Fridays before we wend our weary way home.
26:39It's a long way to come from the Russells.
26:41I usually manage to get away pretty smartish on Fridays.
26:47Tell me, who takes PTS now?
26:50Is it Miss Windrup?
26:51Why, did you train in St Angeles?
26:53Long, long ago.
26:54Oh, when you transfer her to another hospital later?
26:57That's right, dear.
26:59Um, anyone fancy a dinner?
27:01No, thanks.
27:02Not for me.
27:03Leave my seat.
27:14What made you pick her up?
27:16I didn't. She came over.
27:18She wasn't her own pet.
27:19Well, we're stuck with her now, aren't we?
27:21Don't you like her?
27:23I came here for a good time, to play nursemaid to a lush.
27:26A what?
27:28A drunk, dear, didn't you guess?
27:30But she's a nurse.
27:32Yes, she says.
27:35She doesn't look drunk.
27:37A lush is a decent show.
27:39We haven't done that in class, have we?
27:42It comes under the heading of extracurricular instruction.
27:45I'm sorry, Pat, I didn't know.
27:50Perhaps a friend will come back for her.
27:52Not likely.
27:53Do you think he's a doctor?
27:55He must be married and schooled.
27:57I don't know, and I don't care.
27:59I'm sorry, Pat.
28:00Oh, stop saying you're sorry, will you?
28:08We could go somewhere else.
28:10Why?
28:13We could go somewhere else.
28:15Like where?
28:17Another pub, other pictures, or just home.
28:19All right, then why don't you?
28:21Why don't what?
28:23Go home.
28:25All right, if you want to.
28:31Well?
28:33Well what?
28:34Aren't you coming?
28:35Where?
28:36Home.
28:37I don't want to go home, Maureen.
28:39Oh, I thought you did.
28:40Well, I don't.
28:41Will you go, then?
28:42No, it's all right.
28:45I thought you opted to.
28:46I thought you did.
28:47Well, there's nothing to stop you.
28:48I'll leave you here alone.
28:49Alone with Beryl?
28:50I thought you didn't like her.
28:51Oh, God.
28:52Well, I'm sorry, Pat, I couldn't help it.
28:54Of course you could.
28:55All you had to do was to say to her that you really didn't like her.
28:57Yes, Barney.
29:03Barney?
29:07We're over here.
29:11Surprise, surprise.
29:13Yes, isn't it?
29:16I thought I'd change your name.
29:18You don't come here often, do you?
29:19It's our first time.
29:20What a coincidence.
29:22Well, now we've all met, what are you two drinking?
29:25Gin and tonic, please.
29:26And Eileen?
29:27Maureen.
29:28Maureen, of course.
29:30Thanks very much, sir.
29:32Right, what do you want with it?
29:34Oh, nothing with it.
29:35Confirmation promise.
29:37Oh, yes.
29:38Barney, this is Beryl, I think.
29:40Hello, Barney.
29:41All right?
29:42I'm just getting these two drinks, OK?
29:43Yeah, I'll have a carry.
29:49Her boyfriend, is he?
29:50Oh, no, we only met him tonight.
29:52He's a sort of cousin, actually.
29:54A blinder, me.
29:56You know something?
29:58Not ever.
29:59Excuse me.
30:00Excuse me, please.
30:01What?
30:02It's ridiculous.
30:04Are you all right?
30:05Sorry.
30:06I didn't mean it.
30:07I didn't come to make a mess.
30:09I had to get rid of my mates, didn't I?
30:11It's more than what you did.
30:12God knows I tried.
30:13Anyway, I wasn't sure you'd come.
30:15I said I would, didn't I?
30:17Look, let's go down and have a bit of a talk.
30:22So, a floaty for Eileen.
30:24Blows for Eileen.
30:25Yes?
30:26Yeah, really.
30:30Anyway, who's the old bag?
30:32Someone Maureen picked up.
30:34It's all you do, just blow.
30:36And have those great Spanielites reproach me for the rest of my life.
30:39We're married, so what?
30:40We're in the same class.
30:42So what are you going to do?
30:43She'll go soon.
30:44She's getting tired.
30:46She doesn't look tired to me.
30:48She looks a bloody fixture.
30:50No chance of her passing out, I suppose.
30:52On a bit of lemon?
30:53No, I suppose not.
30:55Excuse me, love.
30:57Can I have a pint of bitter?
30:59Yes.
31:00A gin and...
31:01Look, you go back, love.
31:02I'll manage.
31:03I'll be all right.
31:04Yeah, you come along.
31:05Gin and tonic.
31:06Ivani!
31:07And a bit of lemon, yeah?
31:08Think of something.
31:09Yeah, will do, will do.
31:11There we are.
31:12And, er, can you put a lot of gin in that bit of lemon?
31:14Yep.
31:15Please, tell me.
31:16Lovely.
31:18Still homesick, then, actually?
31:20Yes, I am, very.
31:24Of course, you're a Landler, aren't you?
31:26More or less.
31:27Well, not so bad for you then.
31:30Now, a whole new life, really.
31:32Yes, it is.
31:35Well, it's the one thing that you've got to watch out for in your position.
31:43Excuse me, love.
31:45They're called murders, wards.
31:47Look at this.
31:48No!
31:49God, I can't believe three hands for this job.
31:52Gin and tonic for the lady.
31:54A bit of lemon for the other lady.
31:56And a pint of rock art for me.
31:58Cheers.
32:00Cheers.
32:02Sorry.
32:05What's the matter?
32:06Oh, it does taste funny.
32:09It's, er, probably a different brand now.
32:11Yes.
32:13It's nice, though.
32:21Very nice, when you get used to it.
32:25I was just saying to the girls that the one thing they've got to watch out for in their position
32:30is getting too insular.
32:32Insular?
32:34Well, you know.
32:35Stuck in that hospital all the time, too tired to go out.
32:40You should, you know, go out.
32:44Make the effort.
32:45That was the general idea tonight.
32:47It's friends.
32:48Lots of friends, not just one or two.
32:52Because, you see, dear, unless the recreational facilities have changed considerably
32:58since my day
33:00Have they?
33:01I'm sorry, have they what?
33:04Oh, you know, table tennis and all those awful little rooms where you eat together and drink coffee.
33:11If you mean are they still like the black hole in Kolkata, yes, they are.
33:15Well, there you are then.
33:20Will you, er, excuse me a minute?
33:24I think I'll follow.
33:28Yes.
33:31The main attraction of the evening.
33:34The lady we'll be waiting to see.
33:36Miss Candy Dubarry.
33:48Look at your 12-year-old girl, she's happy.
33:52He's had his cheeks on, he can't complain.
33:56They've had a little rest along, they're happy.
34:01Oi.
34:03Oi.
34:05Oi.
34:07Yes, I didn't think so.
34:09It's never so hot in here, though, is it?
34:11Yes, it is.
34:12You don't want to go on, do you?
34:13No, I couldn't leave Pat on her own.
34:15She'll be all right.
34:16No.
34:17What if I look after her, is it?
34:27Barney!
34:28Barney.
34:30Etiquette says you've lapsed.
34:32How far?
34:33You know, from the church.
34:35Yeah, I suppose I have.
34:38Is it because of the new mass?
34:41I know you probably don't like talking about it.
34:43I don't either.
34:45Because nobody understands, do they?
34:47Except us.
34:49They used to say we'd go to mass in any country in the world at all.
34:53And it would be exactly the same.
34:55Like a little bit of home in a strange place.
34:57Because where God is, that's home, isn't it?
35:00And here, they don't seem to care.
35:03It's like they're doing God a favour, going to church at all.
35:06They say the words, but they don't seem to mean them, you know.
35:10And they have this kiss of peace thing now.
35:12Everyone's supposed to turn to the person next to them and smile.
35:16They don't, not here.
35:19They just look straight ahead when I smile at them, that is.
35:22Why's that?
35:28Barney, I think this is a pagan country, don't you?
35:31I sometimes wonder if God doesn't come here.
35:34Because I don't feel God's presence a bit at mass.
35:37Just me alone and all those strangers.
35:41Barney, what should I do?
35:43Do?
35:44About the mass.
35:45Should I keep going, feeling the way I do?
35:47Oh, well, look, listen.
35:48I gave up worrying about all that years ago, all right?
35:52You take your time.
35:58You two want a shot?
36:01You'd better stay here. I'm worried. You don't look too good.
36:03I'm fine, honestly.
36:05You feeling all right, my love?
36:07You don't need out in the window or something, do you?
36:09Sit down, mate. I'll open this window for you.
36:11Have a seat.
36:18There you are.
36:19Bree's up your kill, eh?
36:21Now, you just sit there quietly, will you, Barney?
36:23I'll see you in a minute, all right?
36:27Yes.
36:49Oi!
36:52Oi!
36:56Move, young Harry.
37:08Cones deserted, you have they?
37:10I went to see the floor shop.
37:12Well, these'll keep.
37:16Mother's Ruin and Bitter Lemon, wasn't it, dear?
37:19That's right.
37:20No heel taps now.
37:23Oi!
37:26I got you a double, all right?
37:33What were you talking about just now? You looked all upset.
37:37About the church. Barney's lapsed.
37:41Well, you don't have to go to church to be a Christian.
37:45I haven't been to church for years.
37:47I haven't been to church for years.
37:50Well, Christmas Day, maybe, if I feel like going.
37:54And I'm a Christian. It's different for us.
37:57Well, of course, you have to go, haven't you?
37:59We only go if we like the vicar.
38:05Go open that window.
38:07Behind you, you'll get pneumonia.
38:11Oh!
38:16There. Is that better?
38:19All nice and cosy again.
38:26You are not upset because you fancy him, are you, dear?
38:30Because he fancies your friend, you know.
38:33Does he?
38:34You don't think it was any coincidence him turning up here tonight, do you?
38:38I hadn't really thought about it.
38:40Well, that's good, dear. As long as you don't pounce on him.
38:44No, he's not my type.
38:46Well, that's good.
38:48Scene.
38:50What?
38:51You don't say he's not my type anymore. He's not my scene.
38:56Well, that's good.
39:05You're well out of it, dear.
39:07You don't want to start getting too dependent on other people.
39:10Not at your age.
39:14I was your age when I met my friend.
39:17St Angeles.
39:19You didn't know that, did you, dear?
39:21No.
39:23It's difficult. You see, we both have our own lives to lead,
39:28but we can't get away from each other, you see.
39:31You see what I mean, dear?
39:32Yes, I see.
39:33I mean, I get tired too after a day out on the wards,
39:37but we're quite a way out.
39:39I mean, it's a long way to come back into town and go home,
39:43then get changed and come back.
39:53That's why I say, why don't we meet here,
39:58not go home at all, see a bit of life for a change.
40:03Alex always says, no, I'm going home, I'm too tired.
40:08It's no life for a woman, is it, dear?
40:12Is it, dear?
40:13No.
40:14See, I like to be married and have children.
40:18That's what women are for, isn't it?
40:21What chance do I get stuck out there every evening watching television?
40:27So, we reach this sort of compromise, you see.
40:31Every Friday, if neither of us is on night duty,
40:37we meet here, maybe go to a show or something.
40:42Only sometimes Alex comes in and says,
40:44no, I'm going home, I'm too tired,
40:47and so I stay here on my own, like tonight.
40:52In case something turns up, meet someone.
41:02Alex comes in later, sometimes,
41:06in the car, to take me home,
41:09for buying a house, you see, on mortgage.
41:26Hey, do you think Marie will be all right?
41:29Yeah, she will. You all right?
41:36That's a funny-looking woman.
41:39What?
41:40Over there.
41:43Oh, that's just the drag show, love.
41:45You don't want to go and watch it, do you?
41:47We're nice and cosy as we are.
41:52Who's Alex?
41:54Alex.
41:58Alex is my friend.
42:01Oh.
42:08I'm still an attractive woman.
42:11It's not too late for me, is it?
42:15Do you think it's too late for me?
42:17No, no.
42:18Well, that's what I keep saying, only Alex never listens.
42:21Seems very selfish.
42:23That's it, then, isn't it?
42:24You've hit the nail right on the head.
42:26Selfish.
42:33I'm so thirsty.
42:36You better have your friends, then.
42:38She doesn't seem to want to.
42:41It's tonic instead of bitter lemon.
42:44I don't suppose you'll mind that, will you?
42:46No, thanks.
42:49It's not the house, though.
42:52Not really, not just the house.
42:56See, we need each other, in a way.
43:01We've been together for so long now,
43:04it wouldn't be any good trying to live apart.
43:08We need each other, you see.
43:13Why don't you get married, then?
43:16Why don't you get married, then?
43:18I've just told you, dear, I never meet anyone.
43:21No, to each other.
43:26It isn't possible, dear.
43:29We live together.
43:32Yes, for financial reasons.
43:35There's nothing wrong, you know, dear.
43:38Wrong?
43:39Well, anything like that.
43:46Right.
43:51Motives of the economy.
43:53How it all started.
43:55It starts off, a lot of you sharing a flat together to save on rent,
43:59and then, one by one, the others go.
44:03Some get married, some go to live somewhere else,
44:07and then there's just the two of you.
44:10Forever and ever and ever.
44:12I'm going to be sick.
44:14There, dear, do you want any help?
44:21You're in the wrong one, Zoe, that's for men only.
44:24Isn't it?
44:26All right?
44:45All right, Nadia?
44:47Yes, thank you.
44:49Good girl.
44:55Perhaps you should go home, Nadia.
44:58No, I don't want to spoil Patsy evening.
45:06I'm sorry.
45:07I'm sorry.
45:08I'm sorry.
45:09I'm sorry.
45:10I'm sorry.
45:12There's something funny about that bitter lemon.
45:15Bitter lemon?
45:17Well, that's a new one.
45:19What do you mean?
45:20Blaming the bitter lemon.
45:22Well, it felt awful before I started on the tonics.
45:24It couldn't be that.
45:25See, you had about half a pint of gin.
45:32Three doubles, remember?
45:34It's your friend got you.
45:36The two I bought.
45:38Gin?
45:39Gin!
45:40Well, that was what you wanted, wasn't it?
45:43That was what your friend got you, your cousin, remember?
45:50Where is he?
45:51They were at the bar.
45:53Well, I wouldn't interrupt them, dear.
45:55Oh, shut up!
45:56Shut up!
46:06Why did you give me gin?
46:09What?
46:10The bitter lemon.
46:11You put gin in it.
46:12That's what you asked for, wasn't it?
46:14It was not.
46:15I don't know.
46:16I must have made a mistake.
46:18I'm sorry.
46:19Oh, I didn't agree with you.
46:21You did not.
46:22I got one gin.
46:23A double and Beryl thought that's what I was having and she got me two too.
46:26Come on, Pat, we're going home.
46:28Look, it's only a joke.
46:30A joke, was it?
46:31Making me feel like it was a death's door.
46:33Landing me with that god-awful woman all evening.
46:37Say you're sorry, Barney.
46:40I'm sorry, Barney.
46:41I'm very sorry.
46:43Pat, please come home.
46:46Please, Pat.
46:47All right.
46:48There she is.
46:52Look, Alex.
46:53These are the girls.
46:59There she is, Alex.
47:00Aska.
47:03It's all right.
47:04I've been talking to you all evening, haven't I, love?
47:07Nobody else but you.
47:08We've just been having a lovely, cosy talk.
47:11I'm sorry, sister.
47:14She came in luck, like I told you, all the way in the car to bring me home.
47:20I told you she needed me, didn't I, dear?
47:24Come on, Beryl, we're going home.
47:25No.
47:26I don't want to go home.
47:28It's too early to go home.
47:30Why don't we all have a nice drink?
47:33All us nice new friends.
47:36Barman?
47:38Barman!
47:39Where are you parked?
47:41Well, she won't get a car in that condition.
47:43You bring the car to the door.
47:45I'll get her to the door.
47:46I'll manage.
47:47You cannot.
47:48She's as drunk as a fiddler's bitch.
47:52It's all right.
47:53We can manage.
47:54It's just the excitement.
47:55Are you sure?
47:57Hurry.
47:59Your friends are waiting.
48:00It's all right.
48:01I was going home anyway.
48:02Hurry.
48:15Come on now, Beryl.
48:16I don't know, love.
48:17I'm sorry.
48:18It wasn't.
48:19Well, I just wanted to go home.
48:20No, I didn't want to go home.
48:22Come on, ladies.
48:23Let's wait.
48:24Excuse me.
48:25Can we go through, please?
48:26What is it?
48:27I would support you.
48:28I'd say goodnight, then.
48:30This way.
48:31Come on, ladies.
