- lt's Christmas.
- I won't sit round the dinner table

:47:03
With her, eating food.
:47:05
- I'm sorry, I can't help it.
- He's me brother.

:47:07
- What am I supposed to say to him?
- I don't know.

:47:11
We ain't never going
to have a Christmas by ourselves!

:47:15
Just you and me.
:47:26
All right, I'll go.
:47:28
For you.
:47:31
l ain't staying though.
:47:35
We'll have a quick drink
and then we'll leave.

:47:37
All right?
:47:45
Now I have received a reply from
:47:47
three of Mrs. Drake's four employers.
:47:49
Mrs. Wells has not even had the decency
:47:52
to respond to my second
letter, I'm afraid to say...

:47:54
and whilst they all speak
very highly of Mrs. Drake,

:47:57
I'm afraid that none of them,
under the circumstances,

:47:59
feel able to appear as a character
witness on your behalf.

:48:04
Uh, Miss-- uh, Miss Kitchener uh, does,
however, send her blessing.

:48:08
On a more positive note,
:48:10
l have secured the services
of Mr. Hampton Ward,

:48:12
who is an excellent barrister,
:48:14
and will present our case
in the best possible light.

:48:17
Now, the judge may see fit to give us
the minimum sentence,

:48:19
which could be as little as 18 months.
:48:23
I'm afraid I'm unable to offer you
:48:25
any more hope than that.
:48:28
I'm sorry.
:48:45
You been feeling all right, Joyce?
:48:47
Yes, thank you.
