but this is a bit special,

so... champagne all round.

I'll get some glasses.

- Hi.

- Are you all right?

- She hardly knows him. None of you do.

- He's been round here a lot.

But he's showing his good side.

I don't think he's a nice man.

DAD:
Darling, where are you going?

- He's lovely to Kerry.

Do you like him?

I think he's great.

Come on, Miranda.

Give Kerry a break.

OK.

- Congratulations.

- Thank you.

Did you turn the meat on the barbecue?

No, you never said.

Whoa!

- Congratulations, Brendan.

- Thank you.

Oh...

You know, it's funny - when I made the

announcement, I was looking at your mouth.

Why?

It's beautiful, and I was thinking:

"I've come into that mouth."

What did you say?

KERRY:
Brendan, Mum wants a photograph.

OK.

MUM:
Come on, everybody

let's have a pate, before we sit down

Come on, Derek. Leave them. They'll be fine.

They can't get any blacker!

Come on, Miranda!

DAD:
Family photo.

- Sweetheart!

- Miranda, come and join us.

That's lovely.

And cheese.

It's a nice street.

Miss De Silva.

Hi, I'm Kerry. We spoke on the phone.

And this is my sister, Miranda.

I brought her along. You don't mind?

- Can I just have a look round?

- Yeah, sure.

- OK. Well, shall we start here?

- This is the front room.

- So, what do you think?

- I like it. It's got great potential.

Yeah. I'm just not sure, with the amount

of work you'd have to do, and the cost,

that it's worth it.

You could do the work.

Oh, Miranda, it would mean so much to me.

If I use my savings and sell

my little place, I could buy it.

Isn't Brendan going halves with you?

Oh, the mortgage company won't give him

the money - just cos he's not working.

- Is he looking for a job?

- Yeah, course he is.

Aren't you going a bit fast?

You hardly know him.

- I see.

- What?

You can't stand it that,

for once, I've got something you want.

But you'll find another boyfriend.

You always do.

- It's not that.

- OK, then, what is it?

You've known him for six weeks.

You're selling your flat. You're engaged.

When you know, you know.

I just wish you'd be happy for me.

- Hi.

- Hi, babe.

- Do you want a drink?

- Yeah.

Have you got any cash on you?

Erm...

Hi, Kerry. It's me.

Sorry about today.

I'm really happy for you.

Hi, Kerry. It's me. Erm...

I'm sorry about today, and...

if you buy the flat, I'll do the work.

I'm really happy for you.

Oh, for God's sake.

KERRY:

Hi Sorry we're not in to take your call

Please leave us a message

and we'll get back to you Bye

- Hi, Kerry. It's me.

I'm really sorry about today,

and er... if you buy the place,

I'd love to do the work for you.

I'm really happy for you. Bye.
