:35:00
I often walk.
:35:02
I'm sure you don't need
to take any exercise, my dear.

:35:05
- Alice was just preparing tea. Weren't you?
- Yes.

:35:08
I do hope I haven't put you to any trouble,
inviting myself out of the blue.

:35:12
- Not at all.
- No, that's rubbish.

:35:16
I'm so sorry. Won't be a minute.
:35:18
- May I look around?
- Of course.

:35:20
I adore looking at other people's flats.
:35:23
They do reflect their owner's personality...
:35:25
in an incredibly accurate way.
:35:30
But you know, to be perfectly honest,
I imagined your home to be different.

:35:34
- Really?
- Yes.

:35:35
These charming dolls,
for instance, somehow...

:35:38
They're Miss McNaught's.
:35:41
Of course, that would explain it.
They're just not quite you, are they?

:35:47
- Now, I didn't know...
- Yes, I have a flatmate.

:35:49
How nice.
It's so important to have companionship.

:35:53
Especially when one is an artist.
:35:55
These are mine. I collect horse brasses.
:35:59
How useful.
:36:03
Personally, I try to avoid collecting things.
:36:05
I find one's home
gets into such a terrible clutter.

:36:10
But I do think you've been sensible
to avoid falling into the trap...

:36:15
that so many of our television performers
have stumbled into.

:36:18
- Trap?
- You know how it is with some of them.

:36:22
As soon as money starts coming in,
they go quite wild.

:36:26
Houses, motor cars, swimming pools.
All kinds of extravagances.

:36:31
But this place is really...
:36:36
quite modest.
:36:41
Won't be long now.
:36:42
Good.
:36:43
Kindly close that hatch.
:36:50
Sometimes I have the insuperable desire
to strangle that girl.

:36:56
You obviously haven't let fame and riches
go to your head.
