Yes, potentials.

You're going to require

some extra retirement income.

Have a good day, sir.

Coming out now.

That's robbery.

Daylight robbery.

With all that's happening

in the news...

...we ask, are we turning

our backs on our elderly?

We're following the developments

in the pension crisis...

...all this week as many pensioners

feel forgotten.

Thrown on the scrap heap.

We've been out

and about getting your views.

Well, we're having to move in

with my daughter...

...as we just can't afford

to keep the house on.

I was in the bank

the other day and I...

...Trafalgar Electronics went into

liquidation on the ninth of April.

This has had

a detrimental effect on...

You're going to require

some extra retirement income.

We could discuss

taking your house off your hands.

Sir, with all due respect

it's economics.

Coming out now.

Mr. Goode. Didn't expect to see you

and Jemima again so soon.

Well, she's been coughing a lot.

Would you mind taking a look?

-Of course not.

Ok. Coughing you say?

A latte with hazelnut syrup.

No, hold on,

change that to almond syrup.

No, hold on ch...

Do... Do you...

Excuse me, do you have a toilet?

Sorry, but I'm serving someone.

Yeah, but I just want to use

the toilet.

Do you mind?

I'm ordering here.

Well, I just want to use

the toilet.

Not without buying something

you can't.

-I'll have a muffin.

-Chocolate, lemon or blueberry.

-Blueberry.

-Seriously, I was here first.

Well, you can have the muffin.

-I don't like blueberry.

-Look, who am I serving?

I was first.

Alright, look, look just,

just give him whatever he wants.

I just need to use the toilet.

Fine, it's on the back on the left.

Alright.

What are you doing?

What are you thinking about?

You stupid old man.

Because that's what you are.

An old man.

Stop being so stupid.

Stop making a fool of yourself.

Come on, what are you

doing in there?

I've got a baby to change.

I need a wee too, Mummy.

-Apologies.

-Okay.

-Sorry.

-Okay.

Come on, Hattie,

let's change Sebby.

Bloody hell, Dave,

not so hard.

It's ringing like a bell in here.

Coming out now.

Come on, love.

We'll be late for bowls and bingo.

Bowled one ninety.

Top of the shop, and that's

the age of my girlfriend.

Wife said it's ok,

as long as she's older than her.

Here we go.

Legs eleven. Those wonderful legs.

-That's me!

-Oh, come on. Let's have a check.

Looks like we've got a winner.

It's on. Full house, darling!

Here's your prize, madam.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

And I'll see you all

in a fortnight.

Fortnight? What about next week?

Phil says the club can't afford

his petrol every week.

It's ridiculous.

Afternoon, ladies.
