Loving Miss Hatto Page #6

Why do you bother to come,

Joyce? Well...

I'm still hoping to hear

some kind of explanation.

I was just doing what every other

bugger in business does,

if they think they can

get away with it.

I didn't rob a bank.

I just skimped on some paperwork.

We needed the money... We needed

money because you made

such a lamentable fist

of being a concert promoter.

No, Joyce, we needed

the money because...

Because what?

It doesn't matter.

Don't stop.

I'm sure that's one thing you didn't

miss - me murdering Godowsky.

I missed all of it.

I was a nit.

They're doing a big Chopin

thing at the Festival Hall.

They called me.

I thought I might give it a bash.

Toe in the water.

No boosting required.

Are you going self-op,

or can a pal come along?

Pal's always nice.

Getting the feel, Miss Hatto?

Everyone's parked up, your mother's

been to the Ladies, all serene!

I can't get this...

Here, let me...

Leave it. I'll do it later.

Come on...

we've worked for this.

Play how you play at home.

Never mind about the stool

and people fanning themselves

with their programmes,

just play the music.

This is us back in the game, hm?

The old firm!

The two before you, they're not

going to set the Thames on fire.

No hoper, no hoper, Hatto,

interval, perfect.

Get on, get off, get out. Yep?

See you later, alligator.

Good luck, Miss Hatto!

Ready for off?

Always has to fiddle.

I thought I could do it.

But I couldn't do it.

Look, there's...

There's a thing you

have to have inside...

to really make it.

And I don't have it.

Maybe neither of us do.

Maybe we just flew too high.

Melted our wings?

Melted our wings, Ducky.

We'll be all right.

We'll be all right.

People say to me, "Oh, Liszt

is so romantic," and I say,

"No, you're wrong, he's not

romantic, he's passionate,

"and there's every difference

in the world."

And I say, "There's no point in

waving your arms about like a dying

"duck in a thunderstorm, because if

you don't feel the power from here,

"then it doesn't matter

what you feel about Liszt,

"you won't be doing him

justice when you play."

Absolutely, we'll remember

that when Claudie gets on to Liszt.

Say thank you

for the KitKat, Eleanor.

Thank you, Miss Hatto.

See you next Monday - thank you!

People think it's from the wrist,

but the wrists have nothing to do

with it. It's all from here.

'...Into a full blown

squabble.

'But there is still no dominance,

despite...'

'..and Simon definitely

needs the discipline.'

I'm back.

Big drama with the new monkey?

Simon?

He's just bitten Arthur

and they've got rid of him!

I knew it.

It's an accident waiting to happen.

How was the post office?
