"I love you." "Oh, well, well done and you're welcome and what a boost!" "It's a fan hand forsooth, sir!" "I need to workshop the issue with Stevie but we've fallen out." "Apparently I've ignored her since having a boyfriend." "Objection, my lord!" "Although at disco karaoke finals..." "What else to impart?" "Mum's having a tennis club dinner tonight." "She doesn't want me there." "Apparently I let her down last year." "Side bar, m'lord!" "Oh, I'll serve drinks." "I don't know who this woman is." "Right!" "I declare this cheeky little day ready and open for the business we call life!" "Gary, look at you in your own restaurant." "Are you renaming it?" "What? "Gary's"?" "What's wrong with Gary's?"

"OK, can we all just calm it, please?" "Everyone seems at odds." "Just calm." "Do you know what my favourite three little words are?" "All day breakfast." "I'm going to start doing it." "It's the best thing since sliced bread." "It IS sliced bread." "Then it's toasted and an egg's popped on." "Mike, please ask your girlfriend, who loves you so much she..." "Well." "Ignores best friends, if she would for once share her pancakes?" "Oh, sorry about this!" "Oh, no, I really am sorry." "I mean, if I could stop, I would." "Well, that is it."

"She's convinced that my tennis dinner won't be nearly as good as hers last year." "Over my yoga-plated, flab-free, super firm, what-I-call buttocks." "Now, do you think that Mike would..." "What's happening?" "Oh, Raymond Blanc!" "You look like you're doing Riverdance." "You'd be the same if your pin-up suddenly walked in." "Is Gary Barlow here?" "Is Theo Paphitis here?" "Theo Paphitis?" "!" "I could ask Raymond to the dinner." "If I got a celeb to the do, in your face, Belinda!" "Bonjour, Monsieur Blanc." "Bonjour, mademoiselle." "Erm, je suis avoir un soiree."

"Don't start stalking again!" "I'll observe with binoculars at the minimum distance as laid down by Barry Manilow's lawyers." "I presume you're still not speaking to me." "So, as your superior," "I would like you to send off this letter to British Gas." "Thanking you." "Tripped." "I meant to." "I meant to go up the stairs like this." "Right!" "OK, I can change a duvet cover on my own." "Don't need her help, it's fine." "Stevie!" "I can't find the right corners!" "Stevie!" "Be my friend again?"

"How do I tell someone I love them?" "Oh, um, write it on a muffin and give it to him." "Well, even if I knew how to make a muffin," "I wouldn't have time to make a muffin." "He's upstairs!" "I didn't know that!" "Think!" "Sorry I shouted." "Crazy day." "Um, I..." "No, I'll tell you later." "I love you." "Well, I, erm, I..."

"Love oo!" "No!" "Now, as this suggests," "Mike is not what makes your heart skip." "I mean you love him but you're not in love with him." "That's why you can't say it." "I'm right, aren't I?" "Yes." "Oh, my Marple!" "Now, we need to work out how you'll end it." "Can't she just tell him?" "Just tell him?" "This guy!" "Miranda can't be direct." "It's a condition." "I call it Pushy Mother-itis and Acute Englishness-ness-ness." "She had to write a letter to switch gas suppliers." "Too scared to ring." "They make me feel guilty." "I end up signed to all protection plans and offering them a place to stay if they ever visit from Mumbai." "I mean to be fair, Raj and Miri were very nice." "Oh, they were lovely." "I'm gonna have to write Mike a letter, it's only way." "It's too mean!" "Come on." "Think and pace." "No, I really should..." "THINK AND PACE!" "Well, we've run out of options." "Well, I've written him that letter." "You can't send that." "Why can't you be less mimsy?" "What's going on?" "She can't be direct because of a pushy mother." "She loves very much!" "That's my mother." "Oh, heavens above!" "We don't know." "I'm not pushy." "Miranda, you are to drop everything and order Mike to help me tonight." "I can't find Raymond but Mike could get us news coverage for the dinner." "Isn't that Raymond Blanc?" "Where?" "Where?" "Oh, get out of the way!" "What's going on?" "We're workshopping because she realises she doesn't love Mike." "Mike Owen!" "Mike Owen!" "Mark Owen." "I don't love Mark Owen." "Nor do I. I love Gary Barlow!" "That's Mike." "This is a nightmare!"

"Oh, but I'm still mimsy." "The thought of telling him, he's so gorgeous." "And the other thing is... well now it looks like I'm talking to no-one!" "Mike, listen, I need to talk to you actually." "I love being with you but, erm, I just feel that I need a breather..." "Breeder." "Breeder." "Dog breeder." "Horses." "Horse dogs." "I'm going to breed horse dogs." "Yeah." "Dogs that you can ride."

"Daisy's gone." "Oh!" "Sorry, I know she's only a dog, but I'm gonna have to go." "Sorry, what were you saying?" "Oh, it's not important now." "Something about having to end."

"Oh!" "Mike!" "And I was just going to say guess who?" "OK, what is it?" "Moment's gone!" "I've been waiting to hear that." "Well, it was lucky you were here then." "Why were you here then?" "Oh, Mike, now, about my dinner." "Oh, mother!" "Penny, there's something I need to ask Miranda's father." "Proposey eyes!" "Oh, table!" "I've just laid that!" "He wants to speak to your father." "Oh, darling!" "Oh, no!" "It's Rose." "Do something!" "How does that help?" "Well, I'm clearly in the way, I didn't realise you two were..." "Yeah." "So, you know, bye."

"Few sugars I shall make in your tea now for you." "Yes." "Is that a barn owl?" "Just forget about the tea." "Will you just sit for one moment?" "You're so skittish today." "Like a little pony." "So listen, I know we've only been seeing each other for a few weeks but I've been thinking about the future." "Hi, can I speak to Miranda please?" "Yes." "Oh, hi, I'm from BT." "I'm really sorry you're not happy at the moment." "Oh, listen, I did mean it." "It's not you, it's me, I just want to be with someone else." "Bye." "Yay, mimsy-less!" "Disappointing!" "What are you doing here?" "They are here to wish me well, er, for letting go of BT." "So why were you in the bathroom?" "We urgently needed the loo." "We didn't go together." "I went first." "I followed through." "OK." "Bye then, guys." "Thanks so much for coming." "Look, I don't know what's going on here but will you just listen to me before I burst?"

"On the one day I was struggling and needed your help like you always do, your issues are still more important although they very rarely are!" "They WERE more important!" "Oh, what?"
