- with the young manager there.

- Keep going.

And when the' uh, my hand

inadvertously slipped.

- Will you get your hands off me?

- All right, madam, calm down.

[Sandra] I do hope you know

who you're dealing with.

I'm married to the former

Chief Constable of Surrey Police.

[siren wailing]

Her husband's been cheating on her.

I'm not surprised.

[Bit] What did they charge you with?

Racial aggravation

or drunk and disorderly'?

Could we discuss this

in a less public forum?

Sure, I'm coming down.

Chuck this in the bins, will you?

[Sighs]

[people talking loudly in flats]

[sighs in disgust]

I came down to the station, [chuckles]

but they said you were sleeping it off

This Isn't funny, Bif.

If you hadn't been bullying me,

I wouldn't have got so upset

and thrown the onion bhaji at that woman.

It was a man and you assaulted him

with a prawn dumpling

Why are you being so persnickety?

Listen, why don't you have

an Alka-Seltzer, have a lie-down,

and I'll be back this afternoon.

- Why? Where are you going?

- Dancing.

[Chantilly Lace playing]

[instructor] Very good! Good, good, good!

And turn!

Turn! Flick! Flick!

- Flick! Flick! Flick!

- Flick!

- Sorry, Corrinna.

- Oh, no worries. You're with Ted.

I've worked out some new moves for us.

[laughs]

Might want to put

your crash helmet back on.

Very nice.

Good, good! Sheila, great!

[snoring]

[mobile phone ringing and vibrating]

[gasps]

Hello?

Sandra, it's me.

Oh, yes. [hiccuping]

Pamela's asked me to move in with her.

She wants us to make

a fresh start together.

I thought it through,

and I've decided

it's in everyone's best interest.

How very bloody thoughtful of you.

Sandra, I hope that with time,

you'll understand that

I never set out to hurt you.

Hurt me? How about bloody destroyed me?

[mobile phone clatters]

[sobbing]

[lively music continues]

- [music ends]

- [cheering, laughter]

Okay, everyone, let's take a break.

- Oh, I'll never get it.

- Yeah. Here you go, Ted.

Payment for your labor the other day.

What? Danger money, you mean.

Oh, put it away.

How did your Internet date go

at the weekend?

Well, let's just say,

I got more than I bargained for.

- Ooh, lucky you.

- No, he showed up with his wife in tow.

Turns out I'd clicked swinging

instead of swimming on my list of likes.

[chuckles]

[shuddering]

Ooh.

[panting]

[Charlie] These old locks are a bloody...

[Bit] You don't fancy changing the one

on my front door, do you?

[both chuckling]

Not in this condition, you haven't.

Gravity hits us all, Sandra.

The challenge is to make sure

our spirits don't drop quite as far.

Look,

I want to help you get back on your feet,
