"Well - intentionally..." "Yes!" "I got off with Shelley." "You didn't get off with me!" "A ring!" "Yes!" "Oh, Charlie..." "Oww!" "He's got my balls..." "No, that's me." "Do a good job and I'll give you a promotion." "Brilliant." "MOANING" "Charlie!" "SCREAMING" "I do like you, you know." "I know." "SHE YELPS" "All right, Tania?" "Fine, thanks." "Tania, why's this vending machine only serving jelly?" "Don't worry." "It's low fat, Gloria." "Don't forget your appraisal this afternoon, Tania." "Don't panic, Tania." "You won't get sacked for a bad appraisal." "Mike, don't worry." "I have got the postroom running like a dream." "Good." "My God, just take a piece..." "Like I said, Mike - a dream." "Oh, bollocks." "Get in!" "The D-Man wins again!" "5-nil!" "Aww, Post-it Jenga!" "Wicked..." "KENNY:" "Oh, no, we've been burgled..." "Aww..." "So what's she called, then?" "What's who called?" "The girl." "What girl?" "The one whose face you were eating on the steps earlier." "Can you be more specific?" "Five foot eight." "Red hair." "Average looking." "Average looking..." "Average looking?" "Av..." "Its not...it's not ringing any bells." "Same girl picked you up in her car last night." "What was the registration?" "MK06 L..." "SHE LAUGHS SARCASTICALLY" "Her name's Becky." "She's just a friend." "A friend?" "Or a girlfriend?" "You've got a girlfriend?" "Kenny's got a girlfriend." "Bullshit!" "It's nothing serious." "She just gave me a lift." "Mmm!" "Is that what they call it now?" "No..." "I think they call it "shagging"." "No way!" "Did you shag a girl?" "My lips are sealed." "At least you've still GOT lips." "Unlike Becky." "Kenny's girlfriend's got no lips." "I'd shag a girl with no lips." "Well, Mr Face Eater - you need to get back to work." "There's post that needs opening." "Time to stop your doodling." "I'd love to help." "But Mike's asked me to redesign the company logo thing." "Rebranding the firm." "It's a pretty big deal." "Cool." "How much are you getting paid?" "Well..." "I'm kind of going for something which fundamentally symbolises Fox Cranford." "This it?" "Yup." "Mmm, it's good." "I like Labradors." "Like...?" "It's not a dog." "It's a fox." "It's a fox..." "'Ere." "Does that look like a dog?" "I thought it was a horse." "I don't care if Mr Khan signed the order form " "I want them jellies out of the machine by tonight and the regular food back in." "And for your information, he is NOT a lawyer." "Just tell us what's up." "OK...but it's a long story." "It's all right, mate, just take your time." "Well, it was about six weeks ago." "It was a Thursday, and it was raining." "My auntie was buying some new glasses from SpecsToday, the famous glasses shop..." "All right, well maybe speed it up a bit." "OK, sorry." "Now, these glasses were very expensive." "Around ã120." "They seemed OK at first, and my auntie was very happy with her purchase." "But very soon, something terrible happened." "The lens...plopped out." "Nightmare(!" ")" "Oh, yes, Kenny, it's good." "I like it." "Not quite what I expected, but..." "Well, I've got this one as well - bit more exciting..." "A FLYING fox?" "Mm-hm..." "Fox with a sword..." "Oh, yes..." "Fox on fire..." "You know, I..." "I think it might be the fox that's the problem." "Well, Fox Cranford..." "It works." "But foxes are perceived as sneaky and devious." "I'm not sure that's the image that people associate with a lawyer." "Mm?" "Er..." "Sorry, Kenny." "Creativity isn't really my strong point." "You know...since my wife left me I've become so much more indecisive." "You don't realise how much you rely on someone else being around, to... to talk to, to... ..to share things..." "HIS VOICE CRACKS" "Erm..." "Hey, um..." "So...do you want to keep the fox, or...?" "Don't worry, Mike." "Gloria to the rescue." "Now Kenny, I don't want to tell you how to do your job." "But..." "What we need here is something that really depicts the honour and nobility of Fox Cranford..." "A picture of Mike." "What's going to look better than that on the newsletter?" "BREATHILY:" "Little handsome, single Mike." "With maybe a little Gloria in the corner..." "HE LAUGHS UNEASILY Fish Cranford, Mike?" "Fish...?" "What are you looking at flats for, Shells?" "Well, I've sort of decided it's about time I looked for my own place." "You know - spread my wings and stand on my own two feet." "Ahhh..." "Mum chucked you out again, yeah?" "Yeah." "Oh, my God... this is fate." "I'm homeless too." "Mum's sold up and moved out to Spain." "She wanted me to go with her, like, but... what's out there for the D-Dog?" "She didn't ask you to go, did she?" "No." "It's all right, though - I'm living here." "I've got you guys, I've got this place." "Job and home in one." "It's got everything I need." "Sleep on Mike's sofa, free tea and coffee..." "There's no shower." "I got me a flannel!" "I'm still here, people." "My problem isn't just going to go away!" "I thought it couldn't get any better, but now this!" "You!" "Me!" "As one." "In a flat." "Hello!" "Is anyone listening to ME?" "!" "We could come to work together, be at work together then go home...together...." "Commit suicide together." "Have you ever been..." "to a tile centre?" "You would not BELIEVE the range." "Floor tiles." "Wall tiles." "Bathroom." "Kitchen..." "Hello!" "Can we move back to the important things?" "Asif!" "They're just glasses!" "They're not just glasses!" "They're my auntie's glasses." "My whole family's going bananas." "They want me to sue 'em!" "They still think you're a lawyer?" "!" "Why don't you... go down to SpecsToday, and ask to speak to the manager?" "Eh?" "And then smack him!" "That's my girl." "Oi!" "Will you lot get off your arses and get some work done?" "If this pile gets any bigger it'll start copying itself." "Ooh, scary Mary!" "Is she always like this?" "Or is she just being extra nice cos it's her appraisal today?" "What do you want, Gloria?" "Just your feedback forms for your appraisal." "So your team can assess you, and let me and Mike know how well you're doing." "Or not." "You did them when I was in your job, remember?" "Very thorough you were." "100% confidential." "Oh, brilliant..." "Feel free to let it all out." "Say how you feel." "Is there a prize?" "Any problems?" "Vent your spleen." "Cool..." "Feel like you've been overlooked?" "Put it all down." "However small!" "It may seem trivial to you, but once I've seen it, it could be huge." "Interesting..." "Gloria...?" "You've got a bit of jelly on the side of your month." "So." "Who's for a brew then?" "'Ey!" "Got you a bedside lamp." "Stick it by your bed...in our flat." "Switch it on." "Have a little read..." "Stick it up your arse..." "HE CLEARS HIS THROAT" "Asif!" "Oh, not this again." "Ask Charlie what he wants." "Do we really have to go this every bloody time?" "Tell Charlie we do-oo." "Tania says "we do-oo!"" "Can we not just be grown up about it - and move on?" "It WAS several weeks ago." "Tell Charlie that I have completely moved on from the fact that he knocked me up and then shagged the office bike in the store cupboard." "She says no." "Where's my new claims?" "!" "Please, can you not shout?" "I'm confused." "Is that you or Tania?" "Both." "Both." "Where are my new claims...please?" "Got stuff going on, man." "Bit stressed today." "It's about my auntie's glasses." "Well, about a month ago..." "Right." "I'm already extraordinarily bored by you, so, here's how it's going to be." "I want to see those new claims on my desk in an hour - if not," "I'm going to change my shoes and put on my specially made shit kickers." "I'm going to come back in here with said shit kickers and kick some shit." "OK?" "OK..." "Charlie says he's got shit on his shoes." "I have found the most AMAZING flat." "Going to ring up later." "Kenny has so changed." "It's got a plasma TV, gym in the basement..." "I thought women were supposed to be complex." "Dead complex, yeah." "Security..." "Lecky gates." "Walk-in wardrobes." "En suite in every room." "Er, Shelley..." "Reality check." "How are you going to pay your deposit?" "Don't try and confuse me with your details, Tania." "It'll be three months' rent." "Best part of a grand probably - have you got that lying around?" "I think it's a little bit beyond you." "I think maybe Kenny's a bit beyond YOU." "What do you mean by that?" "The Kenny boat has sailed." "And you... well, you're not on it." "It's not sailed." "Er, Tania - reality check!" "Just because he's a good bloke doesn't mean he's going to wait around forever." "To be honest..." "I was thinking of having a little crack myself." "You know, if it wouldn't be a problem." "It would be a problem." "Tania...!" "CLATTER Ow!" "(Kenny!" ")" "(Yeah?"
