1
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Christmas rubbish.

2
00:00:50,300 --> 00:00:51,300
I'm not listening.

3
00:00:51,580 --> 00:00:52,840
Oh, look at that fairy.

4
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,960
You know one or two fairies around here
who could do with a tree up there.

5
00:00:55,980 --> 00:00:56,980
That's quite enough.

6
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,280
You'll get a message for obscene
mumbling one of these days.

7
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,080
You're like a mad old bag lady.

8
00:01:02,460 --> 00:01:04,560
Ho, ho, ho, Merry Christmas.

9
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,940
That was a good shot. Thank you very
much.

10
00:01:11,420 --> 00:01:12,420
Oh, my God.

11
00:01:12,740 --> 00:01:13,780
Quick, cross over.

12
00:01:14,540 --> 00:01:17,760
Who is it? Betty Craddock, contract
killer for the Women's Institute.

13
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:25,520
Bolshevik.

14
00:01:29,540 --> 00:01:31,100
Oh, to hell with this.

15
00:01:31,620 --> 00:01:32,620
Let's get a cab.

16
00:01:33,220 --> 00:01:34,220
Christmas shopping.

17
00:01:34,420 --> 00:01:35,420
You'll be lucky.

18
00:01:35,780 --> 00:01:36,920
Yoo -hoo! Tom!

19
00:01:37,220 --> 00:01:38,220
Diana!

20
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,400
What's Jane doing with an elderly
bookie?

21
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:43,840
Hello!

22
00:01:44,300 --> 00:01:48,340
This is my grandad, Jamie Edwards, from
Cork.

23
00:01:48,730 --> 00:01:50,230
He's coming to Bayview for Christmas.

24
00:01:50,630 --> 00:01:53,130
And I'm sure it'll be a wonderful
occasion.

25
00:01:53,530 --> 00:01:56,230
It'll be extraordinarily banal and
pathetic.

26
00:01:57,130 --> 00:01:58,130
What, how?

27
00:01:58,490 --> 00:01:59,510
Tom Ballard.

28
00:01:59,870 --> 00:02:01,210
Nice to have you aboard.

29
00:02:01,670 --> 00:02:02,670
Diana Trent.

30
00:02:03,390 --> 00:02:04,670
Well, well.

31
00:02:07,430 --> 00:02:09,410
Are there any more like you at home?

32
00:02:09,910 --> 00:02:12,590
Not her. She doesn't like compliments.

33
00:02:13,510 --> 00:02:15,890
All women are beautiful, Jane.

34
00:02:16,270 --> 00:02:18,250
And love being told so.

35
00:02:18,730 --> 00:02:21,770
Not that one. Come along. See you later.

36
00:02:28,730 --> 00:02:29,730
Charming pillow.

37
00:02:49,610 --> 00:02:50,610
Come and hold the ladder, will you?

38
00:02:51,350 --> 00:02:52,350
Of course.

39
00:02:52,610 --> 00:02:54,490
You go and have some tea, Grandad.

40
00:02:54,730 --> 00:02:55,790
Harvey needs me.

41
00:02:56,530 --> 00:02:58,050
He certainly needs something.

42
00:02:58,990 --> 00:03:00,850
What? Nothing, Harvey.

43
00:03:01,830 --> 00:03:03,250
Right -o, I've got you.

44
00:03:03,930 --> 00:03:06,050
And no trying to peer at my trouser
legs, Jane.

45
00:03:06,490 --> 00:03:07,490
Harvey, please.

46
00:03:25,540 --> 00:03:29,320
What? Harvey decorating up a ladder. Up
a ladder?

47
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,340
Sounds like a chance too good to miss.
I'll get the coats.

48
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,600
I wonder what the Buddhists are up to at
this time of year.

49
00:03:37,900 --> 00:03:43,180
Oh, here we go. I hate Christmas, so
let's all get chronically depressed and

50
00:03:43,180 --> 00:03:44,180
our throats.

51
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,380
I do wish you'd give me to rest.

52
00:03:46,660 --> 00:03:50,200
Well, this is the high season for the
seriously nasty and unpleasant.

53
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:55,640
It's also the season when we remember
the universal joy... And rejoicing at

54
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:56,640
Jesus' birth.

55
00:03:56,700 --> 00:03:58,620
Universal? It wasn't universal.

56
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,980
The Chinese couldn't give a toss.

57
00:04:01,940 --> 00:04:05,300
They won't suppose they were banging the
tanners in the puddings in Baghdad,

58
00:04:05,300 --> 00:04:09,020
either. In Christendom, the rejoicing
was universal.

59
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,980
No, it wasn't. I have it on very good
authority. King Herod was much upset by

60
00:04:12,980 --> 00:04:13,980
the whole thing.

61
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:15,620
Put your coat on.

62
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,120
Some kingdom he had.

63
00:04:18,740 --> 00:04:20,680
Knee deep in soppy shepherds.

64
00:04:21,420 --> 00:04:23,240
All those... All those...

65
00:04:27,180 --> 00:04:29,920
Wise men, my foot. Talk about silly
gifts.

66
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,780
Gold, frankincense and myrrh.

67
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:34,840
Well, what is myrrh, anyway?

68
00:04:35,620 --> 00:04:37,120
Myrrh. Myrrh.

69
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,360
There's Jesus, barely born, 40 years to
become the greatest man that ever lived,

70
00:04:42,380 --> 00:04:43,380
and what do they bring him?

71
00:04:43,540 --> 00:04:45,320
Something unpronounceable from Boots.

72
00:04:46,780 --> 00:04:50,460
You're lucky that God is a forgiving
sort of chappy and has a good sense of

73
00:04:50,460 --> 00:04:51,460
humour. Come on.

74
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,260
Let's go and upset someone whose name
begins with Harvey.

75
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,560
Now, whatever you do, Jane, don't let go
of the ladder.

76
00:05:01,100 --> 00:05:02,620
Oh, do be careful.

77
00:05:05,420 --> 00:05:06,980
Almost too easy, isn't it?

78
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,200
Shall we try the old coronary number?

79
00:05:10,500 --> 00:05:14,380
Oh, I think under the circumstances, the
old coronary number is compulsory. Away

80
00:05:14,380 --> 00:05:15,380
you go.

81
00:05:16,900 --> 00:05:21,040
This is so tasteless.

82
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,080
I'm just kidding.

83
00:05:57,100 --> 00:05:58,100
Oh,

84
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:07,120
God!

85
00:06:08,900 --> 00:06:11,940
You've killed him! What did he land on?
His head.

86
00:06:12,220 --> 00:06:13,220
No damage there.

87
00:06:13,620 --> 00:06:14,640
Wake up!

88
00:06:16,380 --> 00:06:17,520
Are you all right?

89
00:06:18,140 --> 00:06:19,180
Of course I am.

90
00:06:19,700 --> 00:06:20,880
I'm absolutely fine.

91
00:06:21,740 --> 00:06:24,260
What a funny little joke that was.

92
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:26,360
Yes, I did enjoy it.

93
00:06:27,900 --> 00:06:29,120
Shall we get married, Jane?

94
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,820
Well, we've been messing about for far
too long now.

95
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:34,780
Might as well tie the knot, eh?

96
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:36,540
Better get him to hospital.

97
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,160
Get him alone!

98
00:06:38,840 --> 00:06:39,840
He's mine!

99
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:41,260
And he's all mine!

100
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:43,200
Come on, Harvey!

101
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,540
We'll have a church wedding, Jane. Cake.
The full bling. I always look good in a

102
00:06:47,540 --> 00:06:48,760
morning suit. Oh, you do!

103
00:07:00,170 --> 00:07:01,089
Penguin attack.

104
00:07:01,090 --> 00:07:02,190
Hang on to your loose tail.

105
00:07:04,350 --> 00:07:06,850
Sister Sheila, how lovely to see you
again.

106
00:07:07,410 --> 00:07:09,750
You will come and take a dish of tail of
us?

107
00:07:09,990 --> 00:07:12,270
Sure, that would be a great pleasure,
Tom.

108
00:07:14,310 --> 00:07:15,850
Irish penguin to boot.

109
00:07:16,130 --> 00:07:18,010
Nail down the furniture as well.

110
00:07:20,070 --> 00:07:24,150
I'm sorry, Tom. I didn't quite
understand that last point.

111
00:07:24,570 --> 00:07:27,010
What's the problem with me serving in
Africa?

112
00:07:27,790 --> 00:07:28,790
Temptation, my dear.

113
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:34,220
you'll be bound to meet a brilliant
tropical diseases doctor and find

114
00:07:34,220 --> 00:07:37,700
hopelessly enamoured with him and have
to give up your nunship.

115
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:39,360
Nun story.

116
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,340
Peter Finch, Audrey Hepburn, 1958.

117
00:07:44,140 --> 00:07:48,460
What a wonderful imagination you have,
Tom. Don't encourage him. I've spent the

118
00:07:48,460 --> 00:07:52,220
last few years digging him out of
Coldick, dragging him off the top of

119
00:07:52,220 --> 00:07:55,140
and trying to stop his rather unhealthy
friendship with a flying doctor.

120
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,420
Stopped if I'm going to start trolling
round Uganda dressed up like Julie

121
00:07:59,420 --> 00:08:00,420
Andrews in a bag.

122
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,700
Do please excuse my wife's colourful
language.

123
00:08:06,020 --> 00:08:07,940
I'm not your wife. Yes, you are.

124
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:18,480
Sister Sheila, I'm sorry if this offends
you or your cloth, but Tom and I are

125
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,380
not married, nor ever likely to be.

126
00:08:21,620 --> 00:08:24,340
We are just shacked up together.

127
00:08:28,330 --> 00:08:29,370
Tom, just relax.

128
00:08:29,890 --> 00:08:34,210
You already told me that your wife had
died over 15 years ago.

129
00:08:34,490 --> 00:08:39,049
So, unless this is Mrs Lazarus, I doubt
very much she's your wife.

130
00:08:40,190 --> 00:08:41,850
I'm his hot bit of fluff.

131
00:08:44,490 --> 00:08:49,010
Frankly, I don't care what you are, so
long as you're going to be there to

132
00:08:49,250 --> 00:08:50,250
Help with what?

133
00:08:51,090 --> 00:08:52,410
He hasn't told you.

134
00:08:52,670 --> 00:08:53,970
No, he has not.

135
00:08:55,250 --> 00:08:56,930
Tom, this had better be good.

136
00:08:57,900 --> 00:09:03,400
I just said that we'd arrange some sort
of entertainment for the elderly of the

137
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:08,060
parish at Christmas, a nativity play,
and you'd be the director.

138
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:09,279
Oh, great.

139
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:10,280
Thanks a bundle.

140
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:15,640
What Tom did not tell you is that not
only am I a screaming atheist, but I

141
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,600
hate Christmas and all the inherent
humbuggery that goes along with it.

142
00:09:20,180 --> 00:09:22,760
Oh, yes, he said you were a foul
-mouthed old bat.

143
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:32,680
But you were the only one who could get
anyone to walk in a straight line round

144
00:09:32,680 --> 00:09:34,060
here. Yes, well, that is true.

145
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:35,280
So you'll do it.

146
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,080
No, not in a fit. Forget it. OK? You've
wasted your time. I'm sorry.

147
00:09:39,740 --> 00:09:40,800
All right, Miss Trent.

148
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:42,560
Thank you for your time.

149
00:09:45,100 --> 00:09:46,100
Hey, wait a minute.

150
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,320
Yes? Are you giving up? But you said you
weren't going to do it. But that is not

151
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:50,859
the point.

152
00:09:50,860 --> 00:09:53,220
You can't just fold at the first fence.

153
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,760
Dear God, what do they make nuns out of
these days?

154
00:09:58,790 --> 00:10:02,030
In Cambodia, you lot were taking on the
most awful problems and battling

155
00:10:02,030 --> 00:10:04,790
through. Nuns were some of my best
drinking buddies.

156
00:10:05,190 --> 00:10:07,290
And what are you doing? You're just
giving up.

157
00:10:07,710 --> 00:10:11,910
What should I do, then? Well, I don't
know. You could, well, use threats or

158
00:10:11,910 --> 00:10:13,270
subtle ploys.

159
00:10:13,470 --> 00:10:15,670
There are a million ways to skin a cat.

160
00:10:15,910 --> 00:10:19,310
Oh, no, it's quite all right. There's
plenty of volunteers.

161
00:10:20,310 --> 00:10:22,750
I'll get Jenny Brown to do it. Jenny
Brown?

162
00:10:23,390 --> 00:10:25,490
Her eyes don't even look in the same
direction.

163
00:10:26,170 --> 00:10:27,610
John Cameron will help.

164
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,060
John Cameron couldn't organise a piss
-up in a brewery.

165
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,340
Foggy Matthews. He was a quartermaster.

166
00:10:33,660 --> 00:10:36,000
Foggy Matthews is dead, you great Luke.

167
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,860
Betty Craddock of the WA.

168
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:39,280
Betty Craddock. I'll do it.

169
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,580
If that baggage Craddock gets it, she'll
be gloating all over Bournemouth. I

170
00:10:44,580 --> 00:10:46,180
will do it. Thank you. God bless you.
Goodbye.

171
00:10:51,340 --> 00:10:52,340
Hang on a minute.

172
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,200
What just happened? I think a cat has
just been skinned.

173
00:11:03,470 --> 00:11:04,470
Thank you.

174
00:11:04,910 --> 00:11:06,990
What's this, Geoffrey? He's a changed
man.

175
00:11:08,250 --> 00:11:09,910
Harvey! Oh, hello, Tom.

176
00:11:10,190 --> 00:11:11,129
Hi, Diana.

177
00:11:11,130 --> 00:11:13,850
Oh, look, there's good old Geoffrey.
How's your lovely, charming wife?

178
00:11:14,170 --> 00:11:16,530
I haven't got a lovely, charming wife.
I've got to marry him.

179
00:11:16,730 --> 00:11:17,990
You know I'm getting married.

180
00:11:18,210 --> 00:11:19,210
Really? Who to?

181
00:11:19,350 --> 00:11:20,670
To Jane. Jane who?

182
00:11:21,470 --> 00:11:22,470
Jane Edward.

183
00:11:23,170 --> 00:11:24,170
Isn't that your name?

184
00:11:24,450 --> 00:11:25,450
Yes.

185
00:11:26,550 --> 00:11:27,550
Any relation?

186
00:11:28,130 --> 00:11:32,000
Oh. Come along, Harvey. We have to have
the bands read. What fun.

187
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,520
Look, do enjoy your day. You'll find the
food is much improved since I doubled

188
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:36,520
the catering budget.

189
00:11:36,580 --> 00:11:38,160
Diana, is there anything I can do for
you?

190
00:11:38,460 --> 00:11:39,500
Truck yourself onto a bus.

191
00:11:40,060 --> 00:11:42,260
OK. Oh, come along, Harvey.

192
00:11:42,620 --> 00:11:43,499
Bye, all.

193
00:11:43,500 --> 00:11:44,500
Just be happy.

194
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,080
Maybe I should try dropping Marion on
her head.

195
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,380
Yes, all right, thank you. Can we get on
with this meeting?

196
00:11:49,870 --> 00:11:52,690
Right, now, first things first, the
script. Tom, you're going to have to

197
00:11:52,690 --> 00:11:54,150
the script. Is that all right? The
script, okay.

198
00:11:54,390 --> 00:11:58,790
Right, and I am going to be the director
of this epic stage production, Jesus,

199
00:11:58,910 --> 00:11:59,950
the Early Years.

200
00:12:01,050 --> 00:12:02,550
It's called The Nativity.

201
00:12:02,830 --> 00:12:06,090
Right, now, my niece's child, the baby
Diana, will play the baby Jesus.

202
00:12:06,350 --> 00:12:07,650
But isn't she a girl?

203
00:12:07,910 --> 00:12:11,450
Well, I hope so. Boys called Diana tend
to lead somewhat turbulent lives.

204
00:12:12,010 --> 00:12:14,650
But Jesus is a boy. You can't have a
star part.

205
00:12:15,050 --> 00:12:16,990
Played by a girl. It's not a pantomime.

206
00:12:17,190 --> 00:12:20,470
It doesn't matter. She'll be all wrapped
up in swaddling clothes, whatever the

207
00:12:20,470 --> 00:12:21,289
hell they are.

208
00:12:21,290 --> 00:12:22,770
Clothes you get swaddled in.

209
00:12:25,890 --> 00:12:31,330
Well, now, Tom, you, Basil, and Jamie
the Blarney here will be playing the

210
00:12:31,330 --> 00:12:32,089
wise men.

211
00:12:32,090 --> 00:12:37,110
You know that Basil's gone off on an
Icelandic wife -swapping cruise, but he

212
00:12:37,110 --> 00:12:38,170
hasn't got a wife to swap.

213
00:12:38,990 --> 00:12:40,170
He's taken his teddy.

214
00:12:41,950 --> 00:12:45,860
He is due back in plenty of time. and so
we will rehearse without him. Now then,

215
00:12:45,940 --> 00:12:47,640
the casting of the Virgin Mary.

216
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:48,960
How about Marion?

217
00:12:51,820 --> 00:12:52,799
Perhaps not.

218
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:57,120
The Virgin Mary will be played by the
child's mother, Sarah, and Geoffrey, you

219
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,120
will play Joseph and a couple of
shepherds, and Marion will play the

220
00:13:01,300 --> 00:13:02,279
OK?

221
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,140
Fine, Marion's always at home in a pub.

222
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,060
Who's going to play the ass?

223
00:13:07,460 --> 00:13:09,020
Most of the cast, I should imagine.

224
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:12,860
Jamie, Jamie, you're going to look
wonderful.

225
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,500
I just don't think you should have asked
the assistant if she wanted to be a

226
00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:18,860
bridesmaid. You look lovely.

227
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:23,120
People are such nice creatures. I love
them all. No, you don't. You only love

228
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:24,120
me.

229
00:13:28,380 --> 00:13:31,740
We're responsible for that. We ought to
do something about it. Nonsense, he's

230
00:13:31,740 --> 00:13:33,480
asked. A manium is what he's always
wanted.

231
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,100
But he's concussed. His mind is in an
altered state.

232
00:13:37,380 --> 00:13:38,380
So what now?

233
00:13:38,740 --> 00:13:41,040
Well, if he were in one of the best
films...

234
00:13:41,290 --> 00:13:43,970
He'll get another bang on the head that
will bring him back to normal. Yes, but

235
00:13:43,970 --> 00:13:47,090
we're not in one of the best films.
We're in a Daffy Duck cartoon.

236
00:13:47,770 --> 00:13:49,050
Oh, that's rehearsal time.

237
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:12,920
Get behind the desk.

238
00:14:13,140 --> 00:14:15,040
Right, where's the baby?

239
00:14:15,460 --> 00:14:16,460
Here she is.

240
00:14:16,660 --> 00:14:22,900
Oh, hello, my little munchkin. Little
munchkin, yes.

241
00:14:23,420 --> 00:14:25,100
Isn't the baby supposed to be newborn?

242
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,340
So? Well, baby Diana's about 27 now.

243
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,480
She's 18 months.

244
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,300
why they're looking for a place.

245
00:14:44,620 --> 00:14:50,660
Jane, you are a shepherd, so shut your
face and shep.

246
00:14:53,980 --> 00:14:55,900
Is she right? Is that in the script?

247
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,020
Afraid so, and a lot of people know the
story.

248
00:14:59,300 --> 00:15:00,780
Can't really mess around with it.

249
00:15:03,060 --> 00:15:06,180
Okay, dump the baby, shove something up
your jumper.

250
00:15:09,450 --> 00:15:10,910
I'm so glad I came.

251
00:15:11,270 --> 00:15:12,430
It's all right, all right, all right.

252
00:15:14,470 --> 00:15:21,110
Now... Mary and Joseph arrive at the pub

253
00:15:21,110 --> 00:15:23,830
and... Action!

254
00:15:26,450 --> 00:15:30,290
Oh... Oh, golly, I'm so tired.

255
00:15:30,610 --> 00:15:33,990
It's been such a long walk from where
the week came from.

256
00:15:34,490 --> 00:15:37,090
I couldn't remember where they were
coming from.

257
00:15:40,670 --> 00:15:43,970
Nazareth? And the town is really full.

258
00:15:44,530 --> 00:15:46,410
And we can't get in anywhere.

259
00:15:46,970 --> 00:15:51,910
Oh, woe is us. And especially me with
the new Messiah in my tum -tum.

260
00:15:53,410 --> 00:15:54,910
I like that bit.

261
00:15:56,070 --> 00:15:57,930
Get on with it.

262
00:15:58,450 --> 00:15:59,450
Right.

263
00:16:16,590 --> 00:16:18,010
Will you please get on?

264
00:16:19,710 --> 00:16:20,970
What do you want?

265
00:16:23,870 --> 00:16:30,390
Oh, um, do you have a room, kind sir,
for a weary couple who have walked for

266
00:16:30,390 --> 00:16:32,650
miles from... Nazareth?

267
00:16:33,810 --> 00:16:36,870
Nazareth, and are about to have a baby?

268
00:16:37,150 --> 00:16:38,150
Double or single?

269
00:16:38,510 --> 00:16:41,030
What? TV, minibus?

270
00:16:42,770 --> 00:16:45,010
Jacuzzi, room service, in -house video?

271
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,780
Jeffrey, will you put your wife back on
her lead?

272
00:16:49,420 --> 00:16:51,600
Marion, you're not supposed to have any
rooms.

273
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,560
Oh, OK.

274
00:16:55,020 --> 00:16:56,760
We haven't got any rooms.

275
00:16:57,300 --> 00:16:58,300
Shovel.

276
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:01,160
Stable, Marion?

277
00:17:01,580 --> 00:17:03,860
No. Pretty wobbly, actually.

278
00:17:04,839 --> 00:17:06,260
A stinking headache.

279
00:17:07,819 --> 00:17:10,500
I think I'll have a gin and lie down.

280
00:17:10,940 --> 00:17:12,040
See you at the premiere.

281
00:17:18,319 --> 00:17:21,280
That Dickie Attenborough doesn't have to
cope with all this fiddle -assing

282
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,940
about. I should have left it to Betty
Craddock.

283
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,240
How's this?

284
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,300
You look like Marvo, the magician.

285
00:17:36,980 --> 00:17:39,680
The costume places around wise men
outfits.

286
00:17:40,100 --> 00:17:43,980
Jamie got there first, and it was this
or Robin Hood.

287
00:17:44,580 --> 00:17:47,640
I'm in a class and all the doors are
jammed shut.

288
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,620
There's another problem, too. I don't
wish to know.

289
00:17:50,940 --> 00:17:52,720
Jane wants me to give her away.

290
00:17:53,140 --> 00:17:54,140
What did you say?

291
00:17:54,260 --> 00:17:56,280
I said you'd talk to her. Oh, no, you
don't.

292
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:57,860
This is a moral dilemma.

293
00:17:58,280 --> 00:17:59,360
That's all your field.

294
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,860
Hello. Oh, and here she comes. You deal
with it.

295
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:03,800
Oh, hello, Tom.

296
00:18:04,120 --> 00:18:05,240
You look like a magician.

297
00:18:06,820 --> 00:18:09,480
You look like a 1950s air hostess.

298
00:18:10,360 --> 00:18:12,000
What's with all the flesh clobber?

299
00:18:12,420 --> 00:18:14,000
It's my going -away suit.

300
00:18:14,980 --> 00:18:16,260
For after the wedding.

301
00:18:17,060 --> 00:18:18,060
Jane.

302
00:18:18,830 --> 00:18:21,350
He has to talk to you. Tom has to talk
to you.

303
00:18:22,430 --> 00:18:24,510
Jane, do sit down.

304
00:18:24,930 --> 00:18:28,210
I've only got a minute before my next
gown fitting.

305
00:18:28,730 --> 00:18:30,070
Oh, isn't it wonderful?

306
00:18:30,730 --> 00:18:34,690
Jane, there is something we have to
discuss about this wedding thingy.

307
00:18:35,210 --> 00:18:39,290
Now, if I'm going to give you away, I
shall be acting in loco parentis.

308
00:18:39,630 --> 00:18:41,270
Particular emphasis on the loco.

309
00:18:42,450 --> 00:18:47,730
Diana, and as such, there are certain
things I feel obliged to say to you.

310
00:18:48,170 --> 00:18:49,410
It's all right, Tom.

311
00:18:49,830 --> 00:18:51,550
I know all about it.

312
00:18:52,210 --> 00:18:53,370
All about what?

313
00:18:53,910 --> 00:18:54,910
It.

314
00:18:55,370 --> 00:18:59,390
It? What it? The wedding night. It.

315
00:18:59,730 --> 00:19:00,910
Oh, my God.

316
00:19:02,030 --> 00:19:03,630
I have a little book.

317
00:19:03,850 --> 00:19:09,210
My great -aunt gave it to me. She said
it got her through her time of duty and

318
00:19:09,210 --> 00:19:10,770
anguish. It.

319
00:19:12,290 --> 00:19:15,530
Advice to young brides by Merica Rubber.

320
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,180
1893. It's very informative.

321
00:19:20,180 --> 00:19:21,580
The wedding night.

322
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:23,660
Dismissing your maid.

323
00:19:24,100 --> 00:19:25,600
Lowering the gaslight.

324
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:27,460
Thinking of England.

325
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,720
Smelling thought. Sounds good stuff.

326
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:55,080
Marriage has to be entered into in a
spirit of mutual trust.

327
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:56,400
I don't know what you mean.

328
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,940
It means you can't just grab a bloke
with concussion and whip him off for a

329
00:19:59,940 --> 00:20:00,779
quick marriage.

330
00:20:00,780 --> 00:20:04,060
He's not normal right now. He's being
nice to everyone.

331
00:20:04,260 --> 00:20:05,820
Especially everyone in Skirk.

332
00:20:06,060 --> 00:20:08,580
God, if you have bridesmaids, you'll
never make it up the aisle.

333
00:20:08,780 --> 00:20:10,100
He is quite normal.

334
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:14,060
It was the previous Harvey who wasn't
the normal Harvey.

335
00:20:14,620 --> 00:20:19,100
But I would be very grateful if you
would leave us alone and mind...

336
00:20:26,540 --> 00:20:29,320
He must have come into this picture
after the intermission.

337
00:20:29,900 --> 00:20:32,560
Tom, this is not a movie. This is real
life.

338
00:20:32,820 --> 00:20:33,820
Are you sure? No.

339
00:20:35,260 --> 00:20:37,940
So what do we do? I don't... Yes, you
were right.

340
00:20:38,340 --> 00:20:40,660
We give him another bang on the head.

341
00:20:59,110 --> 00:21:00,950
snit as the grandson -in -law.

342
00:21:01,570 --> 00:21:02,570
Here he comes.

343
00:21:05,890 --> 00:21:06,890
Get the ball.

344
00:21:10,590 --> 00:21:12,070
You can't do that.

345
00:21:12,430 --> 00:21:14,570
There's 20 pounds of gravel in there.

346
00:21:28,490 --> 00:21:29,490
I still am, Tom.

347
00:21:29,730 --> 00:21:32,870
Okay. Then head this into the gold.

348
00:22:14,190 --> 00:22:15,190
He's still in Iceland.

349
00:22:15,510 --> 00:22:18,850
What? Dear Tom, heading north with
Eskimo Nell, happy Christmas.

350
00:22:19,750 --> 00:22:21,770
That means we've only got two wise men.

351
00:22:22,510 --> 00:22:23,510
Well,

352
00:22:23,790 --> 00:22:25,230
you and Jamie will have to keep moving.

353
00:22:25,450 --> 00:22:28,370
Good house.

354
00:22:28,630 --> 00:22:30,210
New York Times gave us a plug.

355
00:22:30,530 --> 00:22:32,210
Technical transfer to the West End.

356
00:22:32,450 --> 00:22:34,350
Oh, we need two good songs and a nude
scene.

357
00:22:34,630 --> 00:22:36,250
A nude scene, that's a good idea.

358
00:22:36,570 --> 00:22:38,970
Hey, Sarah, how do you feel about taking
your clothes off? Perfect.

359
00:22:40,890 --> 00:22:43,310
We could have a nude wedding. That's
enough.

360
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,080
of naked bridesmaids. Oh, stop it! And a
naked vicar and a good old -fashioned

361
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,140
niece of orgy. Oh, you're disgusting!

362
00:22:51,940 --> 00:22:52,940
Jane,

363
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:54,219
you've touched me.

364
00:22:54,220 --> 00:22:55,220
Oh, dear.

365
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,560
You haven't changed, have you?

366
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,640
Changed? Of course I haven't changed.

367
00:23:01,180 --> 00:23:02,880
So the wedding's still on?

368
00:23:03,900 --> 00:23:04,900
What wedding?

369
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:06,160
Your wedding!

370
00:23:07,140 --> 00:23:08,140
Our wedding!

371
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,840
Oh, sure, our wedding's still on, Jane.

372
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,400
The same day the Martians landed at
Bayview.

373
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,780
What's the matter with you? You banged
your head or something?

374
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,020
My life is over!

375
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,160
Your life has been saved.

376
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:36,760
Ladies and gentlemen, it's so lovely
that you could all make it to this

377
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,180
wonderful event.

378
00:23:38,700 --> 00:23:41,520
And I'm sure that you all have a lovely
time.

379
00:23:42,010 --> 00:23:47,570
as we watch the Bayview Retirement Homes
production of The Christmas Story.

380
00:23:48,790 --> 00:23:50,570
Over to you, Bayview.

381
00:26:27,530 --> 00:26:28,810
just on a slower camel.

382
00:26:29,010 --> 00:26:33,510
Get off! I know that voice.

383
00:27:20,490 --> 00:27:21,490
I usually do.

384
00:27:22,690 --> 00:27:25,070
Well, I'm sure the insurance will cover
it.

385
00:27:25,450 --> 00:27:27,150
Place needed a new roof, anyway.

386
00:27:28,230 --> 00:27:29,230
What?

387
00:27:29,470 --> 00:27:32,350
Yes, yes, I thought the police were
rather nice, too.

388
00:27:33,450 --> 00:27:34,450
All right, then.

389
00:27:34,930 --> 00:27:35,930
Bye -bye.

390
00:27:36,770 --> 00:27:40,910
Oh, well, so much for my career as the
Andrew Lloyd Webber of Bayview.

391
00:27:41,770 --> 00:27:44,750
It's God's vengeance on you for taking
his story in vain.

392
00:27:45,090 --> 00:27:46,610
Oh, is he? So he thinks Betty...

393
00:27:53,230 --> 00:27:54,270
suffering from cutbacks.

394
00:27:54,530 --> 00:27:57,490
Oh, if only you had believed, Diana.

395
00:27:58,570 --> 00:28:03,370
If only you had a little faith. If only
you had relaxed and let it all sweep

396
00:28:03,370 --> 00:28:07,230
over you, the joy, the mystery, the
happiness.

397
00:28:07,690 --> 00:28:08,970
It could all be yours.

398
00:28:10,370 --> 00:28:16,770
All you have to do is reach out, open
your heart, and let it all

399
00:28:16,770 --> 00:28:17,810
flow in.

400
00:28:19,410 --> 00:28:20,410
What do you say?

401
00:28:22,060 --> 00:28:23,060
Open my heart.

402
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:24,640
Join the human race.

403
00:28:24,940 --> 00:28:26,740
Let it all flow in.

404
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:28,220
Feel the warmth.

405
00:28:28,820 --> 00:28:31,120
Tom, come here.

406
00:28:34,120 --> 00:28:35,560
No, no, closer.

407
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:37,500
I want to say something to you.

408
00:28:39,180 --> 00:28:40,580
Sweet nothings.

409
00:28:42,660 --> 00:28:43,660
Merry Christmas!
