- 'Hello, Fulci's.'

- Hi, I know it's short notice

but could you possibly do me

a table for two for tonight at about eight?

'Sorry, we just gave away the last table.'

Wasn't true about your mum.

Where are we gonna go?

- The Winchester.

- Don't be stupid! They don't do food.

- There's a Breville out back.

- Ed, this is serious!

Hello.

- 'Hello, it's me.'

- Hello.

'What's the plan, then? '

Erm, there's been a bit of a...

a mix-up with the table, babe.

- 'What do you mean? '

- They're full up.

'But... I thought you said it was all OK? '

Yeah.

'You didn't book it, did you, Shaun? '

- No.

- 'So... what is the plan, then? '

The Winchester?

- 'Hello? '

- Dianne, can you let me in?

- 'I'm not sure, Shaun.'

- Oh, come on.

'Lizzie doesn't want to see you.'

- Just open the door!

- 'She doesn't want to see you.'

Do you want me to climb up the wall,

come through the window? Because I will.

'You're not coming in.'

- OK, see you in a minute.

- 'Don't... '

'Hi, it's me again.'

Can we just talk about this? Let's go out.

- To the Winchester?

- Do you want to?

- No, I don't f***ing want to!

- OK.

It's not the only place in the world.

We'll go to the Shepherd's,

they do Thai in there.

- I'm going out with David and Di.

- Let's go together.

You hang out with my friends?

"A failed actress and a twat"?

That's harsh.

I did not call Dianne a failed actress.

Let's just go somewhere and have a laugh.

Things'll be fine, I promise.

You promised you'd stop smoking.

You promised you'd try drinking

red wine instead of beer!

- You promised we'd go on holiday.

- We went to Greece!

- We met in Greece.

- At a rave.

It's not the same.

You promised things would change.

- You promised us free cable.

- I'm working on that.

I can give up smoking whenever I want.

See, don't need them.

W- What was the next one?

It's not enough, Shaun.

'We appear to have

a breakdown in communication there.

'Lf you or someone you know may... '

I'd say your nine lives were up, Shaun.

Get f***ed, four-eyes!

You go out with her, you love her so much.

What do you mean by that?

'... the devastation really is extensive.

It's a total mess.'

I don't know what he meant by that.

Got you these.

- "To a wonderful mum"?

- Oooh!

Yeah, that's because...
