"in which time he has performed
his duties to his own satisfaction.

"Signed, Lancelot Spratt."
:25:08
0h, dear.
:25:10
Has that pimple Bingham got the job?
:25:13
- Yeah.
- The mean old so-and-so.
:25:16
- I'll get us a drink.
- Thank you.
:25:18
- Simon?
- (Nasally) Hmm? 0h, rum and milk.
:25:22
(Mocking) Rum and milk.
:25:26
I'm awfully sorry about this, Simon.
:25:29
Fancy missing a certainty like that.
:25:31
If you weren't so successful
in that field,
:25:34
you wouldn't be in your position.
:25:37
0f course,
Macpherson's an awfully sweet girl,
:25:40
- but she's really not your type.
- No.
:25:43
- A bit predatory?
- Mmm.
:25:45
Gin and tonic, Scotch,
and rum and milk.
:25:48
Simon, listen.
:25:50
"Positions open. Suitable
for recently qualified practitioner.
:25:55
"Medical officer in luxury liner.
Salary £2,000 per annum. In dollars."
:26:00
I've come about the advertisements
in the Medical Journal.
:26:04
I'll take the millionaire if I can.
0therwise, the cruise.
:26:07
Alas, Doctor,
both vacancies are filled.
:26:11
- They only came out yesterday.
- The rush was great.
:26:14
However, we have others.
You wish to go abroad?
:26:17
- I don't mind, if there's sun.
- I have just the place -
:26:20
the Acropolis 0il Company in Iraq.
:26:23
A Greek concern, but respectable.
The tour of duty is five years.
:26:27
I don't want as much sun as that.
:26:29
Are you a man of faith, Doctor?
You look it.
:26:32
A medical missionary in Siam.
:26:34
The remuneration is not very high
but one gains one's reward in heaven.
:26:39
I prefer to gain mine
a little earlier.
:26:41
Have you any ordinary practices?
General practice would be useful.
:26:46
0f course. I thought you wished to
leave the country for some reason.
:26:50
- No.
- Well, we have many practices.
:26:53
Now, here's just the thing.
Semi-rural. In the Midlands.

Assistant to Dr Hatchet.
I know him personally.
