(PHONE RINGS)

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

Hello?

Hello?

Freddie?

Stuart?

Hello?

I'm not sure where Stuart is.

This is Ash, his neighbour.

Oh, is this Stuart's mum?

Nice to meet you.

No, I'm not a girl.

Ash is also a boy's name.

Yeah, it is.

I suppose I'll be seeing you
at the party tonight, Mrs Bixby.

At the big party
for Freddie and Stuart.

Yes, the actor.

Didn't you know about it?

Great, I'll see you tonight.

Yes, I'm positive I'm a boy.

Ash, what have you done?

Violet, you're back.
Yes, and just in time I see.

Was that Stuart's mother
you were talking to?

Yeah, why? And you told her about
the anniversary party?

The party for her son
and his partner?

The party that's tonight?

Yeah. The son she doesn't know the
truth about yet.

She doesn't know he's gay?

Oh, you're joking.

I'm afraid not.
Now think very carefully.

Exactly what did you say?

I don't remember.
Think very hard, Ash.

You're scaring me!

Don't worry. We're in this together.

Oh, God, what are they going
to do when they find out?

Find out what?
Aghh!

What the hell is wrong
with you two?

Hello, darling, I'm back.

Oh!

I had nothing to do with it.
It was all him.

Ash, you remember our friend Violet.

Hi.

I should be leaving.

Not until somebody tells me
what's going on.

Why are you both here?

Is Stuart dead?

Oh!

Oh, shit.

Happy anniversary to you, too

Oh, is that today? I knew there was
a reason I woke up vomiting.

Well, happy anniversary.
I should get home and unpack.

I am so sorry that it didn't work
out with your boyfriend
in Buenos Aires, Vi.

Well, it was all terribly romantic
at the start.

And the fact that he stole
from me proved he really did care.

Now do tell me,
what were you both going on about?

It was nothing.

We were just talking
about the party tonight

and how much fun it's going to be

and how I maybe invited your mother.

You did what?

You tell me exactly what happened!

Well, I walked in and the phone
was ringing

and there was no-one was here,
so I answered it.

And she was really sweet.

Oh, I don't think
that's Stuart's mother, Ash.

And she said that I sounded like
a girl.

Oh, no, it was her.

Can I have a glass of water?
It's really hot in here.
Is anybody else hot?

Oh, you're doing fine, darling.

I already told you I had nothing
to do with what this
lunatic did, right?

Continue, Ash.

I asked her if I was going
to see her at the party tonight.

And she said, 'What party? and
I said, 'Freddie and Stuart's party.'

She said, 'The actor?'
I said, 'Yeah.'

I don't remember if I said it
was an anniversary party

but I guess I invited her
and she said she's coming. Bye!

I cannot believe it!

He answered our phone?

Hello, Judi,
it's Freddie Thornhill again.

Just checking to see that you got
my messages concerning the party
this evening.

It would be lovely to see you.

Oh, please don't tell me you were
calling Judi Dench again.

She's a very dear old friend.
Why shouldn't I be ringing her?

Because you haven't seen each other
in over 40 years.

What nonsense.
We saw her just the other day.

Yes,
in the latest James Bond film.

You do realise
she can't see us back.

Well, any way we used
to be very close.

Need I remind you we once appeared
on television as young sweethearts?

Oh, in that Smarties commercial
you did 50 years ago?

That very well-regarded
Smarties commercial.

>Some even called it Hitchcockian.

And why are you always lurking
in doorways?

Isn't there a counter
that needs wiping down?

Oh, no, I don't need any
help at all preparing for the party.

Thank you so much
for offering, you big bitch!

I'm coming, aren't I?

That should be enough.

I was hoping you'd show
a little more enthusiasm.

After all, it's been 49 years.

49 years of what?

I have absolutely no idea
at this point.

I have made a decision
about something, Freddie.

Well, are you going to tell me

or are we waiting for a messenger
to deliver a scroll?

It's something you've wanted me
to do for a long time.

You're finally ready
to have an open relationship?

No!

I'm going to tell my mother
about us...

..tonight.

It's time, don't you think?

I do.

This is delightful.
Mmmm, yes.

Tell me whose flat is this?

Freddie and Stuart's.

Right. It looks like they're
getting ready to have a party.

Maybe we should leave.

We're at the party, dear.

Of course.

What fun!

Sorry to keep you waiting.

We're putting all the anniversary
gifts over there.

Where did you leave yours?

At the store.

Hello, Penelope.

Happy birthday, Steven!

Everything you just said was wrong.

What a glorious evening for erm...

Oh. Is it just the two of them?

So far.

I'll come down again
when there are more people.

(DOORBELL)
Can I pour myself a drink?

When we get our gift
you get your drink.

Oh!
Happy anniversary, darling!

Thank you, Violet.

Let me take that from you.

It's so light.

It's just a box.

I wanted to make a festive entrance.

What is wrong with you people?

How many now?
Oh, for God's sake!

Just come down!
Fine.

Hello, Violet.

I was hoping to make an entrance
for Judi.

Who's Judi?
Judi Dench!

Who else is Judi?

The check-out girl
at my Tesco is Judi.

Well, it's not her! We did not
invite the bloody check-out girl
from Tesco to our anniversary party.

We invited Dame Judi...

..Dench!

Is Judi Dench coming tonight?

We're hoping.
Freddie has invited her.

(No.)

We worked together long ago.

The 12 hours
we spent eating chocolates

was one of the highlights
of my career.

Yes, of course,
the Smarties commercial!

That she remembers!

I see your mother's not here yet,
Stuart.

No, not yet.

You'll know she's arrived
when you hear the gates of
hell creaking open.

Have you decided
what you're going to do?

Oh, yes. I'm going to tell her
the truth about myself and Freddie.

Finally.

I'm very proud of you.

Tonight? Are you sure?

Perhaps Ash never mentioned
it was an anniversary party.

We can just say we're celebrating
some other event.

It was actually
my birthday yesterday.

So what?

We wouldn't be having a party
for that.

No, I've decided,
I'm going to tell her.

Damn the consequences.

(DOORBELL)
Oh! That could be her.

Look out of the window first.
Check if you see any flying monkeys.

Oh. It's just Ash.

Oh, Ash, you are looking
very handsome this evening.

Very...tapered

and slim. Very stylish.

Very well-groomed.

I'm still straight.

Will you let us know
if that ever changes?

I've brought you a gift.
Oh, thank you, Ash.

How thoughtful.
And it's not even empty.

Stuart, I'm really sorry about
mentioning the party to your mum.

No, I'm actually glad you did, Ash.

I've been putting it off
for far too long.

If you waited any longer
we'd have to dig her up to tell her

Ash, you know Penelope and Mason.

And you remember our friend Violet.

You're joking, right?

Excuse me?

Nothing, it's just...

Just what?

Well, it's kind of...

Kind of, you know...

What's he talking about?

Is he having a seizure?
You have to hold his tongue.

It's kind of crazy, don't you think,
that you always say to me,
'You remember our friend Violet?'

I mean, I've only met her
a thousand times.

We've all had dinners together.
We've gone to pubs together.

We even went to bloody Stonehenge!

Of course I remember Violet!

She practically gives me a hand job
every time she says hello!

Well, about time.
Welcome to the family.

I didn't even realise
I was saying it.

Did you?
Not at all.

And I only touched his penis twice.

By accident.

Wow, it feels really good
to say what you think.

I'm going to try it more often.

Please don't try it on me, dear.

Because it's already
horrible enough coming here.

How heartwarming.

You're both going to turn that sweet
boy into a gargoyle like you.

Yes. I think we just might.

(DOORBELL)

Oh, my God, it's her.

Or Judi. It could also be Judi.

Judi Dench.

Not Judi from Tesco.

Hello, Mother.

Hello, Stuart.

Please, come in.

Hello, Mildred. You're looking...

..alive.

Kind of.

Who's he?

That's Freddie, my flatmate.

You know, the actor.

And this is Ash

and Penelope and Mason.

And Violet of course.

Oh, yes. The slut.

Lovely seeing you, too, Mildred.

Now tell me,
is this your birthday party?

Yes, it is.
No, it's not!

Don't you know when my birthday is?

April?

Freddie,
tell her when my birthday is!

July?

It was mine yesterday.

Happy birthday to me.

My birthday is in October!

And this party, Mother,

is celebrate our 49th anniversary!

Yes. That's right,

Freddie and I...

..are partners.

Well?

I told you not to say anything.

Are you sure she's all right,
Freddie?

Yes, unfortunately.

Just a fainting spell.

You think she could have
at least broken a hip.

I can't help but feel it might have
put a damper on the party

if Stuart's mother had died.

I don't know. I think it would have
perked things up a bit.

Erm, did anybody lose a set of teeth?

They must be Mildred's.

Oh, yes. You can tell
from the fangs.

How is she, darling?
She's resting peacefully.

With God?

I don't think
she even remembers what happened.

Oh, did anybody find teeth?

I did. They have bits of stuff
from the floor all over them.

They need to be rinsed off.
No, they're fine.

I'll just shove them back
in while she's asleep.

So she didn't mention anything
at all about your news?

Not a thing.

Oh, she did apologise for
breaking wind after she collapsed.

I told you that was her!

I stand corrected.

This time.

Well, hats off,
it was another glorious evening.

This party's isn't over yet. There
are still more guests to arrive.

Freddie, I don't think
udi Dench is going to come.

Of course she's going to come.

It's early still.

We're supposed to be having fun,
so let's have fun for Christ sake!

Now you, sit down!

Do as he says. Everybody,
please, just do as he says!

Well, I think I'm
going to have another drink.

Anybody else like one?

I think if we're going to get
through this night, we'll each need
our own bottle.

All right, settle down.

This isn't quite as I imagined
our 49th anniversary.

Really? Because this is exactly how
I imagined it.

Uncomfortable and tense
with very little food.

Oh, isn't it as grand as
your anniversary parties?

Oh, wait, that's right!
You've never been married.

Well if you'll excuse me,

I think I'm going to say
hello to the dog.

He's somewhat better company.

What's wrong with her?

I have no idea. Suddenly
people can't take jokes any more

You all know we're joking
with you, right?

Right!

Yeah.
Yes, of course.

Are you all right, Violet?

Yes, yes, I'm fine.

>I'm just being silly, that's all.

Do you want to talk about it?

With you?
Yeah. With me.

Oh, Ash, I don't want you to think
I'm feeling sorry for myself.

It's just... When is it my turn?

When am I going to meet somebody?

I don't want to be alone any more.

I guess I had a dream
my life would be so different

from this hell I'm living.

Now life has killed the dream
I dreamed.

Isn't that from Les Mis?

Yes, but it holds true
in this situation too.

I think you're a wonderful woman,
Violet.

You do?

I do. And any man
would be lucky to have you.

He's out there. I promise.

(CHEERING AND LAUGHTER)

Oh, sorry.

Thank you.

I feel much better.

OK, well,

I'm going to go
into the other room now.

What was that?

Just two friends sharing a moment.

>Oh. Because it looked like you
were trying to eat his face.

I didn't mean to hurt
your feelings just now.

I sometimes...

I know, darling. It's all right.

You know, I actually feel
kind of fabulous.

Stuart, get in here. It's back!

God help us.

Mother, how are you feeling?

Like there's something
very strange stuck to my teeth.

A button.

You're old. You're eating buttons.

It happens

Is there anything you'd
like to talk about

from earlier this evening, Mother?

You mean when I farted?

No, before that, dear.

When I told you my news.

No, I don't remember.

Well, then perhaps
I should refresh your memory.

It's something
that is very important to me and...

I said I don't remember

and I certainly don't want to
talk about it, so do be quiet!

Of course, Mother.

Well, we are going to talk about it.

And you are going to listen!

Oh, good Lord.

Why don't they just bash her
over the head and be done with it?

The man you are talking
so disrespectfully to

is not only your son
but my partner of 49 years!

Oh, they're a couple!

And I will have you know he is
the most wonderful man in the world

and I am proud to call him my lover!

It's getting very graphic.

Yes, we have had a few minor
differences over the years

but I can't imagine
my life without him.

So when you talk to him,
you talk to him with respect.

Oh, Freddie, I don't know
what to say.

Shut up!

I'm not finished yet.

He cares very deeply about you

but unless you can accept him
and our relationship

you are not welcome here.

Now I'm finished.

Thank you.

OK.

OK?
Yes. Congratulations.

Call me tomorrow.
And the food was awful.

I can't believe it.

After all these years
my mother finally accepts me.

Oh, Stuart.

She really is a vile woman.

Dreadful.

That was amazing
what you did, Freddie.

Not at all, Ash. I just stood
up for the person I love.

You'll do that one day, too.

I hope I have your strength.

I'm sure you will.

Did Freddie Thornhill
just use the word 'love'?

You're so desperate.

Clinging to any kind word
tossed your way.

It's very unattractive, Stuart.

So why don't you get us some drinks

and stop standing there
with your mouth gaping open

like a cheap Italian fountain?

It must be so nice to have
been in love with somebody

for 49 years.

Do let me know what that feels like.

Ah, this is the way it should be.

Now it feels like home.

So do you both sleep
in the same bed?

Yes, Penelope.

Two men.

How extraordinary.

You know what?
It's a gorgeous evening.

I suddenly feel like
opening the curtains.

We are just so happy

that you are all here
to share our anniversary.

You do know that we love
you all very much, right?

>Right!

ANSWERMACHINE: Hello, Freddie,
it's Judi Dench.

It's so wonderful to hear
from you after all these years.

Yes, I'd love to come to your party

but you didn't leave me your address.

So if you could just ring back
with that, that would be fantastic.

(END OF MESSAGE BEEP)

Hi, Freddie, it's Judi Dench.

I still haven't heard back from you.

I cancelled plans with Daniel Craig
for this, so do phone back.

(END OF MESSAGE BEEP)

It's me again, Judi. It's ten o'clock

and I still haven't heard from you.
Right after I throw your gift out,

I'll be heading to sleep
so don't bother ringing me back.

I've got an Oscar.
I don't need this bullshit.

(PHONE LINE DIES)
