(soft music) - Very smart.
- Every inch the professional.
- Yes, well, come on, don't want to keep them waiting.
- So will Mrs Brompton be joining us at The Drovers?
For birthday drinks?
- I think she's planning to drop in briefly.
- Hope you told her to come before things get too rowdy.
- Oh, It's just a few drinks.
- Please try not to get completely legless.
- I can assure you I'm planning a very civilized evening.
- Oh, Yes?
- It's not like I'm a student anymore.
Things have changed.
In fact, I was half wondering if a little dinner might be more appropriate.
- Oh, aye?
- I mean it wouldn't have to be anything fancy, but if it's too much trouble.
- Birthday dinner for six at less than a day's notice - No, no, you're right, it's a stupid idea.
- Sure I can rustle something up.
- Oh Mrs H, you are an absolute star.
- That's one word for it.
- And actually, if you could make it dinner for seven.
- Oh, for the love of God.
- I just thought I might want to invite a guest - And who exactly might you want to invite?
- I don't know yet, but the day is still young.
