He says he likes
sharing his thoughts with me.
He says there's
an incredible witnessing
going on in
a church in Hackney.
He says he may take
a group of us there next Sunday.
Peter's so great.
Yeah.
He said this,
like, black priest
has actually flown
over from America
to save the Church
of England from itself.
Can you imagine?
That's just so Pete.
You've got lovely hair.
What?
Sorry.
I've wrote you a poem.
I've got it here. I could
read it to you, if you like.
It's okay,
you can just give it to me.
I can read it later.
I'd really like
to read it to you.
Really, it's okay.
It's only five lines.
Go on, then. Quickly.
You are the harvest,
God's water and wheat
"Birds fly for you, sing for you
Each wing a beat
of my heart for you
Felt for you, my clay feet
I do not sing for you,
do not fly for you
I'm not water, I'm not wheat
I would be dove,
I would be hawk
Your milky breasts,
my strange meat
What do you think?
I'm sorry,
but you're just too weird.
You're walking through the desert.
It's very, very hot.
Walking. Tired.
You're walking and
walking and walking.
And then... Over here.
You see a eucalyptus tree.
And then
carrying his loaves and fishes.
Now, everybody,
quickly, quickly, sitting
in the shade of the eucalyptus tree.
Sitting in the shade,
sitting in the shade.
I'm so proud of Ben.
Not only has he found a job
he's found a job
helping a retired actress.
She's not retired.
What's her name again, Ben?
Eve Walton.
She's a dame.
Eve Walton?
Wasn't she with
Played Ophelia.
I've really no idea.
Haven't heard her
name for a while.
That's not
saying much, is it?
When was the last time
you went to the theater.
We went to the West End
last Christmas.
That was panto.
I'm sure Dame Eve's
never done panto.
We must invite her over, Ben.
Perhaps she can help us out
with The Story of Christ's Miracles.
On second thought, maybe
we should save her for
Peter's International Day.
Give the Muslims
something to think about.
Excuse me.
Who is it?
Ben.
Come in.
Mum thought you might
like some crumble.
What's that one?
A skylark.
Skylark?
It's found mainly in the Highlands
now, I think.
Its call is
a sort of chirruping...
It's not to be confused with
the woodlark, which has a quieter...
Aye.
Oh, you can borrow the book,
if you like.
It's okay.
Well, it's on the shelf.
Anytime.
Thanks.
Thanks for the crumble.
God, I loathe gardening.
and my bloody back's in agony.
And whoever made up
all these ridiculous Latin names
should be shot.
Floria Fuckabundee.
