CUT TO:
4 EXT. LARGE(ISH) JUNIOR SCHOOL PLAYGROUND. MORNING 4
GEMMA pulls up at the school gates. The TWINS charge out
of the car armed with art projects, lunch boxes etc. She
catches up with the twins in the playground to kiss
CHARLOTTE who ducks to avoid her.
CHARLOTTE:
Ergh that is gross mum.
JESS:
We’re not six!
CHARLOTTE:
Don’t hug us it’s embarrassing!
GEMMA:
No it isn’t - see.
We pan over to see TOM MARSHALL hug his overly confident 8
year old daughter POPPY goodbye, he lifts her from the
ground.
GEMMA:
There’s nothing wrong with a hug.
JESS:
Only poo heads hug.
GEMMA:
Jess, please don’t say poo heads!
POPPY passes and hears GEMMA say ‘poo heads’.
POPPY:
Excuse me Mrs Jones, can you not
use the word poo on school
property!
POPPY moves off as CAROLINE approaches she is one of the
THREE NIGELLA WANNABES (women who once had careers but now

GEMMA:
(Shouts after Poppy) Poo.... No,
hang on, I didn’t say poo..
CAROLINE:
Morning Gemma, see you just made it
on time...
GEMMA:
What! Oh, Caroline, hi, I expect
you’re wondering why I shouted poo!
CAROLINE:
Not really.
GEMMA:
It wasn’t me who said it first, I
was just repeating it...
Before she can finish CAROLINE spots TOM and moves off
towards him (not too far from GEMMA). Her fellow NIGELLA’S
SUSIE and TANYA are already with TOM.
GEMMA:
Great.
GEMMA turns back to the twins for a hug.
GEMMA:
Hug please.
JESS:
Mum! Stop being a geeky loser.
GEMMA:
(Under breath) I’ll pay you.
JESS/CHARLOTTE
How much?
GEMMA:
(Smiles) 50 pence?
JESS looks at GEMMA, arms crossed.
JESS:
Pound each or no hug.
CHARLOTTE:
And we want half up front.
GEMMA:
You two are so like your father.
GEMMA surreptitiously hands them some money and they hug
before CHARLOTTE and JESS run into school. GEMMA turns in
surprise to see TOM standing behind her.

She is a little flustered by him, mostly because she’s
aware of all the mums in the playground watching them.
TOM:
(Playful) Did you just pay your
daughters for a hug?
GEMMA:
Of course not, don’t be
ridiculous! That was their lunch
money.
TOM looks over at the TWINS holding lunch boxes at the
school door.
TOM:
But they’ve got packed lun....
GEMMA:
They have yes but they... eat two
lunches they’ve got some sort of
high metabolic rate issue. It’s
a twin thing, which affects
their... How can I help you Tom?
TOM summons up courage.
TOM:
Right, good, straight to the
point, I like that. Gemma would
you like to go out with me for a
drink, slash, meal thingy
tonight?
