JUDITH:
You’re not the only one.

BETH:
The state of that gear. What do they look like?!
[STRUCK, JUDITH PEERS AT THE PHOTO AS SHE

Loons.
BETH:
No kidding.
JANE:
Yeah, mum..?
JUDITH:
(TO BETH) The pants, silly! I had a pair in crushed velvet...
JUDITH:
(WISTFUL) My glory days. Out gallivanting, not a care in the world back

DAVEY:
Got your text. This Greyvale?
JANE:
(AFFIRMING) They're the only ones the right age at the right time.
JUDITH:
(INDICATING) Think these two were in my year at school. Karen Shaw.
And Sarah... Millar? Dunno about the other. Lucy? Maybe the year above.
JANE:
D'you remember anything about them?
JUDITH:
Had me own crowd. (MOVING OFF, TINIEST HINT OF RUE) Anyway,
got a bit busy for the next eighteen years didn’t I?
JANE:
Would some of your old crowd know the third girl?
JUDITH:
Ooh, haven't seem ‘em in years.
[SHE DELIVERS PINTS, TAKING MONEY, MORE
CUSTOMERS WAITING]
JUDITH:
Ask the other two. Think they still live local.
MICK (OOV):
Babe, I think I got a temperature!

the Old Bill... [isn't fun.]
