Hey, it's garden open day. Oh, yes.

Come on in, you keep for a change.

No, I'm practicing for our neighbor's three shoes.

Honestly, Donald, you never lift a finger to help. You spend money like

drink like a fish, and you eat your own body weight three times a day.

That, sir, is what makes me a gentleman. Paul!

Hang on.

Isn't that our dinner service?

There are no clays, Mr.

Scrooge. And anyway, Grant Darby seldom seen in the best houses these days.

Paul!

They're all tips.

I found them in an outhouse.

And while we're on the subject of penny -pinching... Oh, you haven't spent your

pocket money already, have you? It's only Tuesday. Now you want to talk to me

for a tenner? Forget it! Yeah.

Where are you off? To get the royal wood done.

Hello, how are you?

Hello, how are you?

That's four more yeses.

That's everyone within a radius of 60 miles who's vaguely posh and can still

grip a firearm.

That was four more a bit, Lucy.

Oh, the unmistakable aroma of competing males. Don't you love it?

It is. Paul Bowman?

Yes, your neighbour, the lad of Glenbogel? No, he is, Lucy. Can he

Morning.

Moira McIver?

Oh, my dear girl.

I never expected to find you here.

You haven't changed at all.

Since we were 16.

I'd rather think so.

And here you are.

Let's wear...

It's wonderful to see you. I came only to see the house again, Donald

Less and less, turn up every week. I mean, look, that's my dance class.

We are just expecting too much too soon.

I tell boys, I don't know... One.

One, two, three, four, and one.

Please don't rush off, boy.

Let's at least spend a little time together.

Just for old time's sake.

We could walk down to the lock or go and see the walled garden. Remember?

I must say, Donald, I think it's marvellous that you can pick up just

left off. As if nothing had happened.

Water under the bridge and that sort of thing. Can't we let bygones be bygones?

It's simple as that.

Well, we're here now and with the whole day before us. And why dwell on what we

can't alter?

I chose to be a Gilly Ewan.

It's not the kind of job where you're likely to bump into the love of your

I'll become a DJ because I'm fighting them off.

Your dad's had the jackpot.

I'm not saying I'd like to wait that long.

What do you go for?

Look for personality.

Both? Jess, you know I'm tantalisingly out of reach.

Personality, then?

So he looks like his face caught fire and somebody put out a shovel.

Oh!

Oh, he'd have to be decent looking.

Kind, attentive, a steady kind of guy.

And a great giver.

You can get one easy.

Yeah? How?

Morning, then.

Morning.

Great day to be outdoors, then, isn't it?

You're a long way from home.

Yeah.

How are you, then?

I'll bet them a pony.

Oh.

Call a vet?

Yeah, well, good idea, but they often weren't paying.

Can't win if I have to.

Is that it, then?

No.

And a dozen Highland cows.

Organically raised.

There's a livery stable, too.

Star?

No, just me.

Once the land goes for grazing, nice for vegetables that sell locally.

I make a living.

See, my old man, bless him, all his life he sold chickens.

30 on a week at a quid each. Now, 20 years later...

I was still charging a quid each, but I was knocking them out at half a million

a week. He made a living.

I made money.

So what about you, then?

What do you think?

Too early to tell. I'll tell you what.

You let me take you out to dinner tonight in the name of a set.

Morning, you lads.

Good morning.

What I to dismind from curtsy?

I'm not very good at subjugating the peasants.

You're pretty nice to kiss for a toff, I must say.

Just a lot of toffs, have you?

You have to, until you find the one that turns into a real -life frog.

And I thought you didn't believe in fairy tales.

I'm young, I can mend my way.

I'm also a stranger in these parts.

Well, don't be.

If we're to be neighbours, we must...

Get to know each other better.

Should we start with dinner tonight, then?

Yeah, fine.

Good. You can pick me up at eight o 'clock, if you like.

Utilise resources.

Maximise and intensify.

I couldn't find one like that, Chester.

That's exactly why I sold out.

For that and disgracefully large piles of cash.

People are turning back, though.

Small -scale value -added.

Only if they can afford it.

So.

Cheers.

What's this?

Spicy relish. My gran's recipe.

What, you make it?

Mm -hmm.

May I? Mm -hmm. I'll pay for it.

Of course, Jack.

That's exactly what I'm talking about.

What are you doing for marketing?

We're doing fine.

Thank you for asking.

Look, look.

The scene of many happy hours.

I'm amazed to see it still standing.

It is.

Only just.

What? D -U -M plus M -N equals true love.

Donald Ulysses.

I thought it a name fitted for adventure.

I don't think I could have even found Gretna Green. It was just a name in

days. I hope you didn't take it too much to heart.

I was only 16.

In love.

A silly farm girl.

In that little white dress with the pink rosebuds.

And the matching glove.

And those sandals.

Patent. With a single strap and little gold buckles.

So impractical.

No, Donald.

I've hardly thought about it from that day to this.

They'll take 50 jars as a trial.

It's hardly M &S, is it?

Well, it's a tourist trap.

All the coach trips stop there.

Plus, it's a local trader who we should be supporting.

Please, we should be supporting Isabel.

Maybe I'll be aiming a little higher than the local corner shop.

Well, we're happy to build slowly.

It's not the Pyramids, Paul. It's Chutney.

And look, hit the market aggressively and immediately and I'll have the

With all due respect, Chester, this is rather up to us. Glen Bogle, Spicey

Relish. Nobody cares as long as it's got a tartan bow on the top of it. What you

don't seem to understand... My gran...

My relish, my decision.

All that time we were courting, and I never once set foot inside the house.

Well, not by my choice.

Here's the end of trailed in mud.

You used the wrong knife.

You know what they were like.

Your family were. No, no, I don't. You'll recall we never met.

Although you always had a welcome from mine.

How is the farm these days?

The farm?

Yes.

You really haven't been there since?

No.

I imagined that at some point you'd have made an effort to find me.

I was aware a good deal.

And what an exciting life you've led.

Yes, but you mustn't believe everything you read in the newspapers.

And farming in its own way must be just as interesting.

Fancy you never having been to the farm in all these years.

You really should.

Oh.

Do have tea with me tomorrow.

Shall we say 3 .30?

I wasn't planning to be here.

Oh.

I so hoped we'd meet again.

And now we have.

Yes. It'd be a great shame to waste the opportunity.

Yes.

Tea it is, then.

Goody.

Ewan, we're off.

Paul?

Uh, listen.

Meg's looking to recruit people for her dancing classes, right?

Yeah, yeah, I'm busy that day.

Whichever it is.

Yeah, I was just hoping to use the photocopier in the estate office. It's

some publicity handouts.

Marketing. Seems to be the buzzword around here. Yeah, helps out.

Well, she feels sure it'll make a difference.

I hope so.

Doesn't seem like the sort of girl to sit twiddling her thumbs.

No.

No, she isn't.

Cheers. See you later.

Oi!

You are never coming, Joppy. As a consultant.

Oi!

They had to follow scones, raspberry jam, some cloning cream corn to his can,

then biscuits, get us the lection, and cake.

Dundee, naturally.

Got all that?

It's a working house, Don. Nothing to avoid.

Look at that lady I thought you were with earlier.

Moira Mackay, then, an old and true friend.

Who, incidentally, Paul, is quite happy to accept me for who I am without trying

to change me.

I take it she's the local saint, then? Oh, the family have farmed and cooked

here across the generations. She's carrying on the tradition.

From what I can glean, quite alone.

Hey, you're still under a curfew order.

So I don't think you can go out dating.

Why don't you take me along?

Excuse me. Yes, how can I help? Do you have rooms?

We do.

Single room?

Yes.

Wouldn't you be better off with a business room?

Well, it's a personal gamble. I don't want to involve the estate.

Well, if it's personal, perhaps you'd be better not mixing it with business at

all. No, not that kind of personal.

She's a tenant, that's all, and I want to make an investment, and someone else

is showing an interest.

Are you finding it a wee bit warm in here?

If she goes with me, my input, my investment, I'll need a lump sum

up front.

Well, I mean, we like to help our customers whenever we can, but...

Sorry, I love doing that. Power mad me.

No, the money's available if and when you need it, and good luck with your

investment.

Thank you.

You will raise the weight of a lady's heart, Ewan.

Make a note of it.

Well, I'll take the price off, because nobody's going to pay it back. What?

One ninety -nine.

Oh, where's your cap, then?

Oh, it's not in your hand, is it?

You're not scared of a little competition, are you, Chester? Oh, look,

look, look. If you fancy the woman, then please say so. But trouble with

entrepreneur stuff, eh? I'm supporting a local business.

Don't you mean the bank is?

I'll bring a lot more than one, Chester. Let me guess.

Local noise.

Yeah, can be useful. For example, you're parked right under where the Starlings

perch. Oh.

All right, boys.

It's just gone half past eight and it's time for a special competition with a

great prize.

And tonight, it's one for all you guys out there.

One very special guy could win the Rob Roy Radio Dream Date.

She's gorgeous.

She's a gilly, and she's all girly. And lads, she's looking for a great kisser.

He will be kind, sensitive, a steady kind of a guy.

And he won't look like someone's soundy face while it's still wet. If that's

what's staring back from your mirror, you could be on your way to Rob Roy's

dream date.

You know the number.

Get dialed.

And I.

Lucy. And Paul.

Great.

Now, we said we were going to see loads more of each other, didn't we?

You did?

No.

Well? Paul. Evening, Paul.

Too cool.

Oh, let's not bother with menus when Paul can advise.

You don't need me to order for you.

Well, unless his local knowledge isn't all it's cracked up to be.

OK. The venison's good.

Fairly close, Ben. Yeah, when it comes from my estate.

Touche. To start the book.

Shoot it yourself, do you?

Golly. Gosh.

I find the countryside really, really interesting.

In fact, you're probably not going to believe this, but my favourite film, my

favourite ever film, is actually The Lion King.

Maybe we can place our relish here.

It's not our relish yet, Paul, remember?

You can't stand leaving, Paul.

And you'll find out it is so -called social placid in shoes.

It's not about winning or losing, Lucy. It's about what's best for Isabel and

her excellent product.

Well, as far as I'm concerned, we've had an order placed by the local shop,

which we're going to honour.

Prime. After that, it's a clean slate.

Have I been quitting this conversation?

Of course, Isabel.

Sorry. So which is it to be? Paul's well -meaning DIY approach?

DIY? Or my proven track record of making lots of money?

Can't we find a way that you can both be involved?

I don't think that'll work somehow.

No, we need the clarity.

One or the other.

Great. Thanks.

That way I'm bound to find one of my neighbours, one of whom happens to be my

landlord. There is a way out of this.

We can shoot for him.

Oh, goody. Do.

Clays, Lucy.

What now? The stage is set.

I mean, my clay shoot's only a couple of days away. I can introduce myself to

Highland society and at the same time... Win myself an investment opportunity.

What do you say?

Well, I can't imagine it's what Isabel would want.

Okay, fine, look.

We'll deliver the order tomorrow and call it quits.

Chester's far better qualified than I am.

I'd rather face it than shoot at me, sir.

What do you say, Isabel?

I say, let the best man win.

Brilliant.

Are you sure?

Well, excellent.

Thanks, Paul.

Stakes, guns, maiden's fame.

I'm quite overcome.

My interests include fighter aircraft 1939 to present day, and I'm a keen

metal detectorist, which is incidentally the correct term.

Um, what more can I tell you to interest the young lady?

Um, how to spell detectorist?

Thought okay then, Chester.

Yeah, fine.

Thank you, yes.

I don't believe it.

Want me to get it? No, no, it's fine.

It's not fine. You haven't got your wallet. I'll get it. No, no, it's fine.

Sorry for you, barman. I'll place this on the left account.

Obviously, this is ridiculous and completely out of hand.

You can't back out now.

I'm not going to back out. And by the way, the whole relish thing was my idea

the first place.

Before you're done, then.

Go.

And I sport a pretty impressive beard, which the ladies seem to find most

attractive. I enjoy long walks and quiet conversations.

Hello?

Hello?

A beard.

Thank you for a lovely evening.

My pleasure.

And yes.

Yes what?

Yes, you can see me again tomorrow if you like.

Do you always say exactly what's on your mind? Pretty much.

Life is too short to play games.

I've got some business with Isabel in the morning.

Afterwards then.

We could walk. I'll show you some of the estate if you like.

Brilliant.

Puts down for 6 ,000, Nicole Kogan.

Yeah.

Hello? Hello.

Hello? Hello.

Come on, Lucy, I'm going mad. It has nothing to do.

That's why you bought it.

And the other one.

You're my PA, not my flaming mother.

And if I were you, I wouldn't get so close to that pool geezer. It's a small

community.

You can have these bags when you promise to be good.

Well, give us a brandy at least. I only had two glasses at supper.

To the jewel.

That was very bad of you.

Why couldn't you leave them to do their little relish stuff in peace?

Because I miss it, Luz.

It's the only thing I'll do really well, taking a seedling company and bringing

it on.

It'd be so good to get back in the saddle. In a small... Low stress way.

You're expecting to win, then?

Yeah, I'm a fairly decent shot, yeah.

And Paul with an NCO in the Paris.

They tend to put in the hours on the pop gun practice.

He is full of surprises, isn't he?

Might just have to give him a surprise of my own.

Goodnight. Jess, you must be the best shot around here by now, eh?

Me?

No, Dad.

I'm Martin.

Second, then.

Oh.

You that good?

Yeah. You OK?

If you wouldn't do me a favour today, would you?

Take a box of veg sign to the big house.

And who are we avoiding?

Silly.

If you were passing.

I'm not.

But I will.

You didn't like to tell me what happened last night.

There's nothing to tell.

Honour.

Dinner.

One big happy family.

Here. Oh, for you.

Hi. Hi.

For your car.

Ta -da.

Oh, they're great.

Yeah, well, I hope the locals think so.

Got to get them in somehow.

Don't know what else to do.

Well, I'll help pick them up if you like.

Oh, thanks, Jane. OK.

Later. Bye.

Morning.

Bring them up the bed.

Anyway, bottle that, will you?

I'm on with your dundee cake.

My gratitude is as a bottomless well from which I shower you with venison.

What's a venison?

Oh, blessings.

When they come along, they should be shared.

Picnic for two. Any trouble, Ewan?

Got some nice beef from Isabel.

Yeah, she's a bit better.

Left with the crumbs, as per usual.

You didn't hear the radio last night, did you?

No, why?

I mean, neither.

I've watched the video Lion King, you know it?

Mm -hmm.

Is that not a kids' film?

Very true.

Gave me a British fighter aircraft 1939 to present at any time.

What are you on about?

I was just saying I might tell metal to take in.

Eh? Or grow a beard.

Oh.

I just thought you might like to enjoy a quiet conversation.

Yeah, but not with you, you bam -pot.

Well, to be honest, Des...

I don't think even Chester knows how much money he's got.

Whatever. It's a wedge.

Can he find something a bit more challenging in the city?

He has his own reasons for being here.

Your turn.

Come on, there's no such thing as a free character profile.

Paul?

I hardly know him.

Izzy, you don't have a soft spot for him, do you?

Of course not.

You know that if you do, then I don't.

Come on, then.

Dish the dirt.

There has to be a downside.

Mother.

We'll get 50 jars in there, no problem.

Yeah, the problem is, that's where they'll stay.

No -one's going to stay in back of you.

Nonsense.

And you can take your eyes off that spot.

I'll not move these wee chaps or some untried condiment.

You're not telling me people actually buy these?

They're on the most popular line. Sold throughout the Scottish diaspora.

Well, then, now.

You're fairly new to retail, Mr Bowman Agabar.

I fear your career may be short -lived.

Do you ever think of taking dancing lessons last?

Actually, yeah.

When I was seven.

You must have outen a great deal, didn't you?

Yeah, a great deal of taxiing to and from Bali.

Poor Mum could have got a minicab license.

Listen, when we're finished here, we'd better go and give out some of those

handbills. Sure.

I have to say, though, I think it's a wee bit optimistic.

Oh.

Lucy came tonight.

Was she?

He took out the dinner last night.

I was being welcoming.

New neighbour.

I think she's very nice.

So do I.

Are you?

Quite a grilling.

Grilling?

Loosely. I was just making conversation.

There's nothing between us.

Oh?

We're just neighbours.

You won't.

I think she's lovely.

This one's full.

Why, Golly, what wouldn't I do to get back in your good brood?

Thank you, Charlotte.

Chef says hi to Gilly, by the way. He says, how do you fancy making it a

foregun? No problem.

Golly, it's a great shot.

This, uh, Gilly.

Is he local?

No idea.

Name's McGonagall.

Bit of a weirdo, apparently.

Careful, those are, uh... Flippy.

Thanks.

Gonna help me up?

Sure.

I have a small gig for you.

North African.

I haggled long and hard for it.

Silver.

Donald, as you know, I'm a single woman living alone.

I hope you wouldn't trifle with my affections. Oh, no.

So, before accepting your thoughtful gift, may I ask what it betokens?

My affections?

You'll forgive me if I take that with a pinch of salt, given your record and

matters between us.

Why, now everything's different.

We are no longer children.

We have our own free will.

But if you were to leave me in the lurch again... Oh, I have a plan.

This time tomorrow I can reveal it to you, but not before.

You trust me.

Well, of course I trust you, Donald.

Why on earth shouldn't I?

I'm too... Tomorrow, then.

And before you go, could you help me up?

My father, the colonel, always used to say to me, rule number one, Luthi,

dry feet, stand easy.

He used to take us all camping.

I mean, real, rough camping.

I had a... Suspicion. He wanted us all to be boys.

I've got three sisters, you see. All older.

You?

No, only child.

Missed all that.

There's eleven of us now, including spouses and sprogs of area.

We all troop back for Christmas.

Log fires.

Carols.

A bit silly, really.

Not silly at all.

That was perfect.

Mr Grant!

We're going to go.

It's a substantial sum you're asking for.

Marriage is a very expensive undertaking.

A poor second to divorce, in fact.

Now,

on the matter of security... Security?

Well, we're delighted to make the loan, but we would require security.

Ah, well, there's my newly restored classic car worth double that.

Well, I'm sure it is, but it would have to be property, Mr MacDonald.

Oh, dear. Well, I'm afraid Glen Bogle's in my nephew's name.

Well, perhaps he would stand as guarantor for you.

I mean, who knows you better than your own nephew?

You'll need to sign this, though.

Ah.

In fact, I used to favour the old Moroccan double.

Otherwise, the father before him used to employ the Macintosh shuffle on a

piece.

What are you on about?

Oh, you'll hardly be wanting to take the shot yourself.

Why not? You might lose.

A man in your position can hardly leave a matter of this to chance.

You mean cheat?

Certainly not.

Good grief, cheat.

Now, what I'm saying is that you pay my wages. I am your right hand, if you

like. Why keep a dog in bark yourself?

Especially if the dog is a fine shot and hidden in the bushes.

Ah, that's the Moroccan double.

No, thanks. I'll set me own shots.

Yes, another idea.

No flies in the face of McDonald tradition.

In any case, test is hard to gilly. So you'll have to do your own shooting.

Fine. Oh!

Oh!

Again!

Aye, well, it's entirely up to you, sir. The Macintosh Shuffle is reliable, but

it's a bit old hat.

What is the Moroccan double?

That's very popular in here. Aye, they're cheap, I never had, never will.

But that guy that failed to mention he was an ex -para, are you sure?

True.

But we just won't mention your dark and murky path, will we?

You know, this is extraordinary.

This has got to be the first non -bench shooting match in Scottish history.

We're here to restore the balance, McGonagall. Keep things even.

You just beat us, Gilly.

I trust you will.

I need only draw to take the prize.

Oh, I'm sorry, but Salsa is absolutely cool.

I must do something.

Okay, well, how do you feel about Dali for beginners?

Great.

Did I mention I'm a vet?

Well, I am. A locum, anyway.

And I love being around animals. And I'm vetting. Your girl does, too.

And I think, a female ghillie.

Well, wow.

Blonde hair, blue eyes. I can see why you call it dream day.

You could probably go on all night, Rory. But you're not going to.

Right, the lines are closed, so tune in tomorrow night and I'll announce the

lucky winner.

You won't live that long.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I thought it was what you wanted.

You gave out my detail.

No need. On air. How well did you watch it? Some strange blow. One of them

sounded okay. I knew you were mad.

I know.

Hi, Dad.

Yes.

Where are you in this stuff?

What is that?

Mobile library.

Are you celebrating?

Every glass just a bit full.

Ah, the power of advertising, eh? Yeah, well, least of it.

For two, eight o 'clock.

Your dad's up, friends. You're just scared.

I'm careful.

Phone number. The vet. Name's Oli.

Hang on here, Bride. I'll take a chance, who knows?

Jess?

I'm thinking.

To speak openly, Moira, and at the risk of... I thought my chances of happiness

had gone forever.

I thought so too, once upon a time.

But now I hope... I dare to think... That we could be together.

Oh, Donald, is that your plan?

Now I'm capable of carrying it out.

You from the big house and me just a fangirl. Oh, those things can't be

these days.

What will your family think?

Oh, well, I won't tell them.

But by the time they notice I've gone, we'll be miles away.

Come to the farm.

Shall we see nine in the morning?

Oh, my dear girl.

And be sure to pack enough for a long, hard journey.

No road too rocky, no way too steep.

Why don't you call the duck away back there?

Well, maybe I could have been more persuasive.

No doubt Chester would have found a way.

I knew I should have stood aside for your sake.

It's early days yet.

I told you this would happen.

And I told you these chaps sell the hotcakes.

This is the last carton.

How does your relish square up against that, eh?

Done.

You're settling in from what I hear.

Mind, you must be on top of each other in that wee place.

We don't mind.

Backs lovely and straight and chins up, girls. I'm sure you don't.

He's quite a catch.

And you don't have to fret yourself.

Fret myself?

And stretch and hands lovely and graceful, girls. Watch me.

It was just the same with the yoga.

Ever such a nice young girl. But there just wasn't the interest.

She didn't have a golly to fall back on. Well, I'm not falling anywhere.

Not now, no.

Stretch, refill those muscles, Grace. Not that anyone minds doing golly a

favour.

Gracious, he's done enough for all of us.

Favour? Joining your clapping.

Golly.

Is that why all of you are here?

Like I say, not to be mind at all.

Nothing's too much trouble for golly.

This is Rory, the local vet.

Hi.

Hi.

Are you calling?

Just ringing you in.

Right. This is

never going to work.

What's happened?

Well, I thought it really cracked it. But no, they were all just doing you a

favour.

What does it matter why they were there? It was humiliating.

You know, and now they're all back in your good books. Well, they're obviously

not going to keep coming just for me, are they? Oh, they might.

Well, I just felt that you were losing heart.

Well, I am.

Finally, I am.

Hello.

All righty.

Here.

Thai green curry with all the trimmings.

Lover for the lady, and, uh, bill for the...

Are we?

I'll be off then, eh?

Thanks, son.

Looks great.

Look, to do what you have in mind, to build it up, could take years.

Haven't got years!

My life as a dancer is over now.

Oh, come on. You don't know that. Yes, I do.

Teaching is all I have left.

Tonight was just the last straw.

Everything okay for you?

Very, very good, Ewan.

I enjoyed it very much.

Very much indeed.

thanks big man it's nice to be appreciated

Well, Rory, I hope you're listening, mate, cos you're a lucky one, are you?

Tomorrow night, 8 o 'clock, Kelly's Rest.

Meet your dream date.

The

Laird's

account. That'll be the day, eh? Good man, Dougal, thanks.

Excuse me.

I shall be leaving after breakfast if you could make out my bill. Of course I

will.

There you go.

She's staying in?

Yeah.

Mr Borman!

Oh, morning.

I'm glad we were able to help your uncle out at this happy time.

I'll send you a copy of the guarantee form in the post.

And thank you for signing it so quickly.

Hello?

Where's Donald?

No idea.

Are these the keys to the Morgan?

Aye. Right, what's he up to? He's borrowed money for something.

No, no, he'll ask himself, don't he?

Moira make something.

This happy time.

Of course.

Well, she's leaving today with my uncle.

Moira, where's Donald?

Not with me. I'm his nephew.

I need to find him or he's in a load of trouble.

Good.

Look, I don't know what's going on between you, but he's not a bad man,

down. And whatever it is he was planning, he's risked everything he has

And quite a lot he hasn't.

Look, he's put his home, his family, his freedom on the line for you now, if you

know where he is.

Please. Tell me.

Dear golly, I'm sorry I'm moving out like this.

But I've always been able to look after myself.

I've always worked.

Something you know all about.

I need some time to think.

To decide if I'm strong enough to give all that up.

Forgive me.

Love always, Meg.

So, Uncle, tell me, which part of this did you think was an especially good

idea? The fraud, the forgery, or breaking the curfew order? Please tell

haven't missed anything out.

I left you the Morgan.

Worth more than the bank loan.

The bank take fraud very seriously, you know.

I'm going to have to tell them.

What?

I'm sorry you've been put through all this.

I deserved it.

Oh. All those years ago, she was waiting here.

We were going to be married. She was everything I ever wanted, Paul.

You've seen her.

Can you imagine?

She was an angel.

And you broke my heart.

I didn't deserve it, not to be discarded in that way.

After all, we'd been to each other. I deserved at least an explanation.

Father found out.

I packed a small case and I was sitting on my bed and... I never

could stand up to him.

He bundled me off to some relations miles away and... I'm so sorry.

Is weakness your excuse?

In the end, it has to be a despicable thing, I have to admit.

It was never indifference that kept me away. It was the shame.

After all the fine promises, all the big talk, to have to face the shame.

I couldn't.

Until now.

I told you the truth.

I came to see the old house again, but...

When I saw you, well, it seemed an opportunity to even the score.

What I did was very cruel.

More so than what I did.

Oh, Donald.

As you see, you were only a boy.

I cried and cried like a baby.

Mother couldn't take it in the end.

We packed up and we left the old house to rack and ruin.

All those memories.

Yes.

I had no idea. I'm desperately sorry.

Don't be.

I've had a happy life.

I'm widowed now, but I've got a loving family.

As I can see, you have.

I just wanted to hear it from your own lips.

That I wasn't a nobody.

Oh, far from it.

Hardly a day has gone by... Oh, far from a nobody.

Do you still have that chain?

Yes. It's not from North Africa.

It's from the village shop, 199.

I'm not only a liar, I'm a poor liar, in the sense of not

having any money.

Perhaps now we can be a good memory for each other. Do you think?

I hope so.

I'm sure.

Here.

Seems I owe you a vote of thanks.

An apology.

A few quid and a pile of crockery.

In no particular order.

Here, McDonald.

You're allowed to be an expensive liability.

In fact, it's pretty much expected.

But if you could stop short of felony next time, I'd appreciate it.

Hey, Donald.

Make it last.

Please.

We'll start soon.

So, that'll be my temporary ghillie.

McGonagall, meet Paul Bowman.

How do you do? Hello. It's a nice gun.

Something of Aberdeen, 1885.

Very rare.

Nice medallion.

Olympic shit in gold, 1990s pick.

That's even rarer. Just to even things up.

Sergeant Bowman.

By the way, where is... Name Gully?

Look. We'll give them in 15 minutes.

I think a no -show equals a four. All right. All right. That's been on my way.

Oh, come on. Give them a bit longer.

I mean, from a fair play point of view.

Yeah, it'd be the same if you had a four.

But on the other hand, it's not the game we're going to win.

Check that.

No, no, no.

All's fair in business.

Fuck!

Nice shooting we're going on.

Huh?

Golly, 30 beer. Just give him a bit longer.

Rules is rules.

Well, let's bend on them, shall we?

My good neighbours.

I'm really sorry, Paul. This is all my fault. I told him you'd been in the army

and he's so insanely competitive.

So you were.

You wanted the shooting much in the first place. Now I want to make my own

I'll tip short.

You're nice, Gilly.

Chester, you hired an Olympic... Marksman. No offense, anyone, but I

in a win -win situation.

So, Isabel?

Move!

No!

We're captured.

Sorry, Paul.

Oh, dear, Kester.

A draw.

Looks like it's all down to you now, then, doesn't it?

Meg not with you?

No, she isn't.

Oh!

Kester, what's this all?

You're in a much better position to help Isabel than I am.

Huh? So I'll call it off.

What, are you willing to feed the match to me?

It isn't about us.

It's about Isabel.

And like you said yourself, many times, you're a better man for the job than I

am. So put on the spot. You never know what you might come up with.

Thank you, Sean.

Well done, boss. Well done.

So,

we've

done business then?

Still in business.

Listen, I know this rubbish stuff is really important, but I thought this

contest deserved a proper Highland trophy. So, to the victor, the spoils.

I couldn't resist him.

Isn't he the most outrageously cute thing you've ever seen?

Look

where

those awful wee dogs were.

Like the one that Lucy caught you.

Yeah, they, uh... Must have sold out.

nowhere else to be, lass.

I see the juniper's in bed already.

Really?

It's a good sign, though, yeah?

Yeah, it's a good sign.

May not be such a hard winter after all, then.

Never did lot of these, did you?

You were father's favorite.

Worthless tat.

Come on.

There's loads of them.
