The first 200 lines.
You're back, then? - Yes.
She's gone to her gran's in Liverpool.
Kelly died in Liverpool and I never knew why she was there.
There's this wedding tomorrow.
I'm allowed to bring someone.
I would love it if it was you.
Yeah, of course.
You don't make sense at all.
You've had one proper relationship in your life
and then that broke up because he cheated on you
and you are still going to his new wedding!
- When it comes down to it, it'll just be us. Total commitment. You and me.
See you at the church.
- Are you sure? That you want to marry Liam?
Why wouldn't I marry him?
OK.
Is there any reason I shouldn't?
Hasn't he called you?
His friend's found him some work in New York.
He's moving.
- But do you think all this is a bit much, with what he's going through?
I'm sorry.
Forget it all.
I'm still your Gail.
You ever want to just scream?
All the time.
Please be upstanding.
# I found a love
# For me
# Darling, just dive right in
# Follow my lead
# I found a girl
# Beautiful and sweet... #
Please be seated.
All right? - Yeah.
- Dearly beloved, you have come together
into the house of the Church
so that, in the presence of the Church's minister and the community,
your intention to enter into marriage
may be strengthened by the Lord
with a sacred seal.
Liam, have you come here to enter into marriage
without coercion, freely and wholeheartedly?
I have.
- Hannah, have you come here to enter into marriage
without coercion...?
..freely and wholeheartedly?
Hannah?
- Don't know what you were dreaming about,
but it sounded very exciting.
I've got Evie up, haven't done her nappy,
I thought I'd leave that to you. Your coffee's there.
Don't take too long, it's your big day.

So, that was Rachel on the phone.
We've been talking about a bucket list
and she's booked me in for this morning.
This morning?
Yes.
- Oh. Well, that's wonderful. Are you up for it?
- Yes, I think so. We've got time, haven't we, before the wedding?
She wants you to go with me. - Really?
To take pictures.
Mmm, tea's lovely.
So glad you're back.
Right, I should get dressed.
It says here, loose clothes.
I'm not sure I've got any of those.
Third drawer down.
Just doing the post.
Hi.
Hey.
You all right?
Yes.
You OK?
Yeah. I just needed some fresh air.
My mum's a bit intense.
- I was a bit intense when my daughter got married.
But you're up for it?
What?
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
I can't wait.
I better get back inside. People arriving.
Did you know, even then?
Know what?
That it was wrong.
It wasn't wrong.
I loved it!
And I loved you.
So, what happened?
You like things clear.
But life exists in the vague, David,
in the dark places inside us we don't want to think about.
- Well, I'm certainly in a dark place now.
You want to hurt me, get rid of me.
Fine, I deserve it.
Yeah, that's right.
But she doesn't.
Whatever you're thinking of doing today...
..don't.
Oh, it doesn't fit.
- Oh, come on, you're not that much bigger than me.
No, I'm smaller!
I'll buy something this morning. You can drop me off
on the way to your thing. - What thing?
Here.
They meet every Saturday morning.
I checked online. - I put it in the drawer.
I know. I took it out, had a look.
Oh, Maya, have you got any earrings I could...?
So, I am hoping to pull tonight.
I beg your pardon?
- I'm hoping there'll be some eligible young man at the wedding.
You've just got out of hospital.
- Exactly! I'll never be more sane than I am right now.
- Well, you can't bring him back here. And don't get pregnant.
No chance.
I've got the implant and I'm taking the pill.
Not sure you're supposed to double up, but I'm not taking any risks.
- Can you revoke a wedding invitation? - No, you can't do that.
I want you to be there instead.
I haven't properly told you but I was...
- I'm sorry. - ..stressing even before she was coming. - Any other time.
Yeah, OK.
Are you going to that meeting today?
- How does everybody know...? - I saw it on the side. You should.
You owe me, I reckon.
All right, yes, if I have to.
- Maya, it's early. You don't need to go yet.
Yeah, I do.
- It's going to take time... - I know!
Mum, she needs to sleep.
Just put her down, shut the door and leave.
The whole point was that...
- It seems a bit mean to just abandon her.
- She's a baby. - Is it too early to open a bottle of Champagne?
- Yes. I don't want to be pissed walking down the aisle.
Ooh!
Too late!
Maya, how are you getting on?
- Got hours. - No. It takes...
No, it takes about ten minutes.
The only reason I'm here is because the other option
is being at home with my mum and, as we talked about,
mums are really fucking annoying.
What's your name again?
- Gavin. Oh, don't be so silly. - I'm not.
I've told you my name three times
and you can't be bothered to remember it, so what's the point?
Gavin.
Text me if you need anything.
- Why? Where are you going? - Kitchen.
You just need to spend some time with her.
I don't.
Now, can we get a move on?
I need Rose to get on to the real star of the show.
- Oh, God. - What?
I don't want to look at it.
Look, there's curtains.
What are you doing?
Put them back, please.
Henry?
That's right.
And this is your wife?
I was told it was a lesson for one.
She's just here to watch.
I'm interested in learning with a professional.
OK. Please.
You can sit there.
So, you have danced before?
- Er, no. - So why now?
Because it's strange. Your daughter called first thing in the morning,
booked one lesson...
I mentioned it to her yesterday
and she was being impulsive.
But, yes, I've watched people doing it and, you know, carpe diem.
Try everything once, except incest and folk dancing.
- Incest? - It's a saying.
- You shouldn't try incest. - No, exactly. I was just... - He's dying.
He's got five months to live and this was on his list.
In that case, we should start.
Now, if you feel ill, you tell me,
cos I have a rule -
when I'm teaching, no-one dies.
I'm Belle,
and I don't know if I'm an alcoholic.
My sister thinks I am, but she's got so many issues of her own.
Anyway, her and her daughter don't get along
but the one thing they agree about is that I drink too much.
I mean, probably not as much as a lot of you!
I don't know why I do it.
I'm just worried about not being fun enough.
And that makes me...
I nearly went into a job interview very drunk.
It was only because...
- Sorry. - No worries. Come join us.
Please, carry on.
Right, well, I was saying,
at this interview,
someone actually stopped me going into... Oh...
