Just Around The Corner Page #4

Synopsis: In the not to distant future the globe has warmed and the economy has collapsed. James fleet plays his usual buffoon self, and James Bolam plays his usual cantankerous old geezer. In this pilot, where floods keep depositing bodies and the local war Lord (who is a lady) goes round pinching other girls boy friends, tries to get our hero (Fleet) to teach her new "friend" to read. This was a little hit and miss, but with Andy Hamilton at the tiller, and Sanjeev Bhaskar as the neighbour, I have hopes that it will get better.

Maybe he's the twin brother

of the other body.

He probably died of shock

when he discovered his brother

had a heart attack.

Either that or

he was dragged here by an otter!

You put a mac on him,

you shaved off his moustache

and your threw him back over the

fence... threw him over the fence.

And what's more...

Is that a car?

That's Big Delia's car!

Oh, Jesus.

It's been nice knowing you!

I knew this would happen.

It'll be fine,

she's probably just passing.

Delia forced Sony Watkinson's mum

into prostitution.

I'm not sure how much

forcing there was.

Mick...

She was quite

prostitute-y already...

I'm told.

Talking of prostitutes,

let's be very careful not to make

any reference

to Delia's early career.

Right.

Or that of her mother.

- And grandmother.

- Grandmother?!

Yes, and her...

Whoa, stop right there,

what we don't know we can't say.

Oh, and nobody mention what

happened to her husband.

What did happen?

She topped him.

Yeah, well, we don't know that.

For all we know it was

a freak accident involving

a steam roller and lots of weasels.

Was that thunder?

No, Mick, that was you.

The main thing is to be confident.

What are you doing?

I'm never going

to remember all this

so I'm writing "murderer",

"weasels" and "whore" on my hand.

No, no, no, don't do that.

Area controller,

what a nice surprise.

Happy birthday for yesterday.

Sorry I didn't make it,

but I came down...

with a dose of... er... of, um...

of, er...

Syphilis.

Yes, syphilis.

Cup of tea?

Thank you,

and what's-his-face will have some.

Oh good, good. Oh there's no milk.

Kia would you fetch the...

What's that say, on her hand?

It says...

weasels, murderer and whore.

Weasels, murderer and whore?

Yes, it's, erm, a..

A law firm.

Yes, it's a law firm that she's

thinking of consulting. Kia, milk.

I hope you got the milk from one

of my approved outlets

and not some roadside

cloggy bastards.

Oh, absolutely, 100%.

How many cloggies does it take

to change a light bulb?

11. One to change the bulb

and ten to crew the submarine.

Here, I've been told

that some of them

are basically male prossies

targeting our women,

cos they don't see

our women as people

and of course,

a lot of their woman drowned.

Is that right?

Yeah.

Oh. I'll tell you what,

I'll ask what's-his-bollocks

here, cos he's Dutch.

Course, I've also heard that

some of these Dutch gentlemen

and their English lady friends

form loving and...

Leave!

Of course, yes.

And you. What's your name?

His name is Pyk.

Pyk Van Der Linden,

and he's my boyfriend.

Yes, er, actually, sweetheart,

that...

Or at least he was...

Actually, sweetheart...
