:03:02
some genuine and some...
not quite so genuine.
:03:07
And what's great is that lots of friends
have ended up in this part of London.
:03:11
That's Tony, for example,
architect turned chef,
:03:14
who recently invested all the money
he ever earned in a new restaurant.
:03:18
And so, this is where
I spend my days and years...
:03:21
in this small village in the middle of
the city in a house with a blue door...
:03:25
that my wife and I bought together
before she left me for a man...
:03:28
who looked exactly like Harrison Ford.
:03:31
And where I lead a strange half-life
with a lodger called--
:03:34
Spike!
:03:39
You couldn't help me with an incredible
important decision, could you?
:03:43
Is this important in comparison to,
let's say, whether they should cancel
Third World debt?
:03:47
That's right. I am at last going out
on a date with the great Janine,
:03:50
and I just wanna be sure
I've picked the right T-shirt.
:03:53
- What are the choices?
- Well, wait for it.
:04:02
First there's this one.
[ Growls ] Cool, huh?
:04:06
Yeah, it might make it hard
to strike a really romantic note.
:04:10
Point taken.
Don't despair.
:04:12
If it's romance we're looking for,
I believe I have just the thing.
:04:20
Yeah, well, there again, she might not
think you had true love on your mind.
:04:23
Right.
Just one more.
:04:32
True love here I come.
:04:39
Well, yeah. Yeah, that's--
that's, um, perfect.
:04:43
Great. Thanks.
:04:46
- Wish me luck.
- Good luck.
:04:54
[ Narrating ] And so it was
just another hopeless Wednesday,
:04:57
as I walked the thousand yards
through the market to work,
