We will be with you shortly.

Mrs. Greenslade, thank you for waiting.

I've consulted with my manager...

Now if you'll just stay on the phone for a moment and talk to me.

Just talk to me. Of course.

I'm not even clear-I mean, I don't actually understand what it is I'm trying to order.

Is wireless the same as Wi-Fi?

And what do either of them have to do with broadband?

Mrs. Greenslade, since the account is not in your name,

before we can make any changes,

we need to verify details with the account holder.

Can I please speak to the account holder?

What?

I'm asking if I can talk to the account holder.

Before we can make any changes...

You can't talk to him, no.

He's dead.

He died of a heart attack.

There's only me.

Mrs. Greenslade, since the account is not in your name...

Lord Justice Walton requests the pleasure of our company.

- Had you forgotten? - I hate retirement parties.

Crap cheese, crap wine.

Endless speeches.

Why do people do that?

Nobody... Nobody ever said about a retirement party, you know,

"Well, this is great.

I can't wait to have one of my own."

It'll be yours one day.

One day very soon.

You've been saying that for years.

It was often said of Stancombe that his bark was worse than his bite.

But as the recipient of both,

I can testify to the fact that neither actually required surgery.

His relationship with all his pupils...

was founded on respect.

We respected him, and he respected that.

Indeed, to this day, I recall his response...

to the unwelcome news that I would trans...

Praecipitium a tergo lupi.

This is the day.

Graham?

This is the day.

And there's an unlimited range of leisure opportunities...

just a stone's throw away.

So, as I say, what you're looking at here is very competitively priced.

You won't see better for your Grey Pound.

Another little feature...

not necessarily right now, give it a few years...

rails on the wall to help you get around.

And over here, a panic button.

In case of a sudden fall, brings the warden running.

What if we fell somewhere else?

Sorry?

It's just we might not manage to plan our sudden fall...

in the exact corner where the button is. Yeah, but...

And would it be possible to have the rail going through the middle of the room...

Darling. To help us get across, as well as around.

Um, c-c-could we have a moment, please? Thank you. Yeah.

Thank you so much.

Darling...

Thirty years in the civil service, and this is all we can afford.

W-W-Would it help if I apologize again?

No.

But try it anyway.

Could Dr. MacKenzie please make his way to Theater 7.

Dr. MacKenzie to Theater 7.

Young lady, I want a cup of tea. And I want it now.

The trolley will be along shortly.

How hard do you have to fall to get proper attention?

I've been lying here for hours.

Not a single doctor has come to see me.

Now that's not quite true, is it, Mrs. Donnelly?

A doctor did try and examine you, and you sent him away.

What, that one? He can wash all he likes. That color's not coming out.

I want an English doctor.

Oh, an English doctor.

Why didn't you say so? I'll get one right away.

Thank you.

Mrs. Donnelly, this is Dr. Ghujarapartidar.

Notes, please.

And after that, I worked as a systems analyst for a few years,

but I just found it so dull.

What I really wanted was to do something more creative that matched...

Um, I'm sorry.

Um, on the form, they asked for our age bracket...

and the age we wanted to meet.

And in both cases, I ticked "25 to 39."

That's right. So did I.

Anyway, don't stop. Uh... "Something more creative."

How old are you? Early 40s.

And, you know, my interests are travel, theater...

Do you mean you were born in the early '40s?

Judy, I know what you're asking.

It's Judith.

Judith. Trust me.

I've still got it.

Just can't find anyone that wants it.

Hi. I'm Norman.

This is crazy. You're crazy. You can't just up and leave like this.

And yet, if you watch me, that's exactly what you'll see happen.

What's going on? Your mother's lost it.

- My mother never had it. - You talk to her.

She doesn't listen to me. Nobody listens to you.

I still don't understand what's going on.

I just asked her to babysit, and now she says she's leaving.

But you love babysitting. I loved it last night.

We had pizza and stayed up late.

- And the night before? - We had Chinese and stayed up late.

If you don't go, tonight we could do a curry.

It's tempting, darlings, but you know I have to leave.

We know.

Being here is stopping her finding a husband.

Another one?

Bye, Granny. Bye, Granny.

Don't let the buggers get you down.

How many husbands have you had anyway?

- Including my own? - Mother.

Mother.

Mother!

Thank you, yes.

Right. Name the place, darlin'. Where you going?

I've absolutely no idea.

There's no other way. There just isn't.

Harold told us this three months ago.

And I'm afraid matters have only got worse.

We can't wait any longer.

We need to put this flat on the market and at least start paying off Dad's debts.

I've talked it through with Polly and the boys.

Of course, we all agreed. Ma will come and live with us.

I think that's best, Evelyn.

And it's what Hugh would have wanted.

Good. Well, that's settled. End of discussion.

Oh! That's just what your father used to say... Ma.

When there'd never been any discussion at all.

I want to look after things for you.

What, like he did for 40 years? Look how that turned out.

How on earth do we know what Hugh would have wanted?

And would he have seen fit to tell us anyway?

Obviously, the flat's got to be sold.

And you're very kind, and dear Polly.

But I shan't be coming to live with you.

You need a new hip, Mrs. Donnelly.

It's not a difficult operation.

That's easy for you to say. You're not having it.

Regardless. You do need a new hip.

- I'm not gettin' it from you. - Not me personally, no.

- No, none of your lot. - I see.

When do I have the operation?

I'm afraid you'll be on the waiting list for at least six months.

At my age, I can't plan that far ahead.

I don't even buy green bananas.

There is another way.

Our hospital trust is funding a pilot scheme...

that will enable us to outsource you to another hospital...

where they can perform the procedure almost immediately...

and at a fraction of the cost.

Is it local?

They cover the cost of the flight out apparently.

When did you get a computer?

How far along is the progress bar?

That thing at the top. It tells you... I know what it is, Ma.

What are you showing me anyway?

Come and spend your autumn years in an Indian palace...

with the sophistication of an English country manor.

Tucked away on the outskirts of Jaipur, and graced with breathtaking surroundings...

"Lofty terraces, open courtyards",

domes, arches...

and canopied balconies abound with opulent comfort.

Indeed, the entire building exudes historical ambience...

"and transports one back in time to the proud tradition of the Raj."

Is that good? It is. It is.

Very good.

Thirty-six years, four months since the day we were called to the bar,

and you've never once talked about India.

Do you want any of these books?

You might be needing them again.

- Mrs. Megson. - Sir?

I want you to have this.

- Are you sure? - Oh, absolutely.

Th-There's a little crack there just on the bottom,

but I think you know something about that already.

I used to live there...

a long time ago.

There won't be any golf courses.

Well, that's just as well. I can't afford the green fees.

But a retirement home?

It's a luxury development...

where all the residents are in their golden years.

Like the Costa Brava?

Yeah, but with more elephants.

You know who'll be there... Indians.

Loads of them.
