"Who's there?"

I can see who's there.

It's you.

I like what you've done

with the place. Bit draughty.

How's Selina?

We divorced 10 years ago.

Yeah, I know, just

wondered how she was.

She's doing very well,

apparently.

Have you got anyone

else on the go?

Yeah, I do, as it happens. She's a

fitness instructor. Twenty-six.

Pedophile. I'm kidding.

I'd love to meet her sometime.

No. Why are you here?

Haven't you heard? We're getting

the band back together.

I'm not your

bass player anymore.

No, I mean we're getting

the boys back together.

We can get the band back

together as well if you want.

No, we can't. You sold

my guitar to buy drugs.

I've always wondered, what's

that thing over the door called?

That's a lintel.

So, the plan is, we're going

to go back to Newton Haven,

we are gonna do

The Golden Mile

and this time, we are gonna

make it to The World's End.

Everybody's in.

What, even Andy?

Oh, you better

believe it, big balls.

Andy is going drinking with you?

With us.

Think about it, go back to the

old town, sink a few pints...

Twelve pints.

Yeah.

Twelve pints is insane.

I know!

What is this

all about, Gary?

It's about closure,

you know.

Why should getting older affect

something as important as friendship?

A lot's changed since then, Oliver.

Right.

This is our chance

to take stock.

A stock take?

You make it sound so much fun.

Come on, O-Man. Isn't that

something you'd like?

What I'd really like is for you

to take your DMs off the sofa.

Look. If you're worried about

me, don't be. All right?

I'm here to tell you that Gary

King is back on the horse.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

You're back on the horse?

No, I mean

I'm back on the bike.

What is bike?

What do you mean?

What is bike slang for?

Bicycle.

I'm lost.

Don't be.

Okay.

Listen.

This is our chance to finally

finish what we started.

Come on, man,

it'll be f***ing mental!

I think we're all done.

So...

How do you like

the property?

Yeah. It's amazing.

Amazing location.

Fantastic.

Fantastic aspects.

It's just... It's just a little

bit out of our price range.

He'll knock some off for you.

What's it down for?

1.2 million.

F*** off!

You have my card.

Gary, WTF?

It's good to see you,

too, O-Man.

Please don't call me O-Man.

Sure.

Hey, how's your sister?

She's fine.

She talk about me?

No.

So, Friday, we'll all

go down together.

Make a road trip of it,

I'll drive.

Don't think I can. I think I've

got a doctor's appointment.

Yeah, you do.

With Dr. Ink!

You know, Dr. Ink?

Yeah. "Drink." I get it.

Come on. It wouldn't be the

same without the O-Man.

Jesus.

You can see the guys, see how they're doing.
