Thought you'd be screaming for us.

Shuttle's been delayed.

They've got a VIP guest leader.

Who do you think she is? The Queen?

Nearly. She's the girlfriend of a Scandinavian crown prince.

Expecting to announce their engagement any day now.

I think she's on our flight.

Princessly.

Never had one of them before.

Listen, David.

Can you tell us why you're flying a budget airline, Your Highness? As you

this week, Fresh opened routes to two of our major cities.

I am happy to travel the same way my people do. Where is Marika? Why isn't

traveling here? Any truth in the rumor that you've proposed?

If and when there is an engagement, you will be the first to hear of it.

Gentlemen, I have a claim.

Today we have a Scandinavian prince on board.

Bill, do we cut things?

If you'd have read the etiquette sheet that you were given, you'd know,

you? Right. I'd like to brief you on the procedure.

The prince will use the airline's passport control rather than going

immigration with the general public.

His party will be bussed separately to the aircraft.

They'll board ahead of the other passengers.

The royal party will occupy the front seat. That way they can be the first to

leave when we arrive in London.

They'll also have exclusive use of the rear left -hand toilet.

It will be part of your duty to make sure that nobody else uses that toilet.

Oh, terribly sorry.

I am concealing a rather large stick of dynamite down there. Will!

It's Janet.

They're boarding.

Oh, I'm sorry. It's mom's making love.

Sorry.

Is it okay if I just stand here for a while?

Has he been boring you with his near -death experience?

Just a little.

He tells me the whole sex thing. He's lost it.

Before, he would just burn it to my body.

Now he thinks he can care about me as a person.

You believe that, love? You believe anything?

He also tells me he's now in a totally zen place.

I'm going to introduce His Royal Highness Prince Patil, and I'm coming

KC, Marker, Will, and Professor Janice.

We've allocated these groups for your party.

We have arranged a manifestation for you. If, however, you do need anything

soon, it's all right. Don't hesitate to call myself.

Oh, God.

Oh,

God, sorry.

Sorry. No problem.

I think you don't look dumb, don't you?

I'm so sorry about that. With any consolation, I am probably more nervous

you are. Don't you like flying?

Not usually.

But I have a feeling I'm going to enjoy it today.

Totally zen. Totally zen.

What happens to you when we get to London?

Oh, bag up the empties, clean the toilets and start all over again.

We shouldn't have to get off.

I'm sure your purse has told you who I am and why I'm on this flight.

They've been briefing us about it for ages.

They've been cheated of hoping you'll announce your engagement whilst in

and that way their press party for the new route will make the paper.

That's what I'm afraid of.

Since I've been single, I've had journalists going through my garbage,

my phones.

They follow me everywhere.

They'll be waiting for me when we touch down in London.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are beginning our descent.

Please return to your seats and fasten your seatbelts.

I should just be apart from it for a while, you know? Have some time to

again.

Just be normal.

Maybe you can.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to London.

We look forward to welcoming you on board again very soon.

Once you get through in the day, go to the baggage car itself.

The ladies' toilet's just before customs. Wait for me there, OK?

Enjoy your stay in London.

I've been told to tell you, there's a limo standing by to take you to the

What was all that about?

Nothing.

Right, 20 minutes, people.

Leanne, Gally, Jason, toilets.

What?

From now on, I don't want to hear another word about your so -called brush

death. Neither do the passengers when they're sat in turbulence at 30 ,000

Um, James, can I go to the terminal for five minutes? I need the chemist.

Yeah, five minutes, Emma, thanks.

Were you in the RAF, John? No, not the hard way. I was flying for a postal

service in Australia for a while after I got my licence, and then for an oil

company in the Far East.

It sounds a wonderful life.

Would you like your refreshments and hang on?

Thank you.

By the way, this press function that your airline is... putting on this

I hope you will all be there.

I don't think Julia's top invited, sir. Well, then I will have to make sure that

you are.

I am relying on you to rescue me from the boring...

Have a

look at you, Casey.

You're behaving like a groupie on heat. Can't stop, Janice.

He wants me to take his snack tray on the flight deck.

And he's invited me to the press party this evening.

Let's make this into a toilet bowl.

We'll never know.

Are you nuts?

You

can't

say that's going to happen.

Where's the tray?

One royal snack treat.

Coming up for you, madam.

Puzzling an heir to a Scandinavian throne.

My airline career is certainly ending with a bang. Oh, don't, don't, don't,

don't say the L word.

What's the L word?

Leaving.

Michael's hand is on his notice.

Next week is... Last week.

Excuse me.

Well, while you're actually still on the payroll, maybe you could actually do

some work.

Those journalists have drunk his dry.

Start collecting the empty.

Janice.

Janice!

Janice! What?

I was going to tell you... Why on earth do you think that I care?

I want to talk to you about the abortion and... Keep your voice down, for God's

sake. All I want to say is that I know I didn't handle things the best way.

I could have maybe supported you more.

And, well, I would like us to leave as friends.

You want us to be friends?

Excuse me.

Could you take it for a moment? I'm desperate for me.

Yes, of course I can.

Thank you. Hello.

Hello.

Where's Emma?

Oh, gone to the clinic.

I mean, where is she really?

Well, I don't know what you mean.

There was more in her bag?

Right, I'm getting a standby. She's not fit to work. Please, don't tell

personnel. Just say she's got a migraine or something.

Look, she's having a really rough time right now.

Her husband walked out on her last week.

Find her.

Now.

I don't know if I'm going to marry you.

That's why I need time to decide what my answer's going to be.

You're giving her your uniform.

Are you out of your mind?

Why? Is anyone going to get part of the press?

It's a sacking offence.

I'm sorry, you have to take that off. No, don't listen to her. Mind your own

business. I'm making it my business. It's a security risk. How?

We're going to change back as soon as we pass the press, people.

Maybe this is a bad idea.

No, don't listen to her.

Look, stop being such an old woman, Lee. If you're not going to help us, then

fuck off.

Fine. Oh, and James has offered you, by the way. Found that you've been drinking

on the flight.

Get help, Emma.

Ladies and gentlemen, we will be landing in London in approximately ten minutes'

time. If you do wish to adjust your watches on the local time, it's 2 .40pm

the temperature is 19 degrees Celsius.

Over. Please speak back to your office, sir. Speak back to the guys and we'll be

landing shortly.

How would you like to make £10 ,000?

I beg your pardon?

You can't go in there.

Let me out!

159 other passengers, and this is the only arse allowed in that thing for the

last two and a half hours.

Don't do that.

I'm offering you more money than you'll make in a year.

Two, probably.

So just shut up and listen to me.

You were going to this PR bash to do tonight?

I heard you say so.

And I've seen the way he's been looking at you.

You are exactly the type he likes.

There are papers I stream for in this country, people who pay money for

you could get on him now, but it looks like he's getting engaged.

If you could bet him yourself, they might even double it. What do you say?

Could be looking at £20 ,000.

Great.

And how about me?

You think I look all right?

Perfect.

You're a fresh girl now, Princess.

Marika! Marika Hahn!

Has the Prince proposed to you?

Marika, why don't you find me the Prince today? It's the Prince of Persia!

Marika! Marika, why don't you find me the Prince today?

Over here, Marika!

That's not Marika.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to London. There will be a short delay while our

VIP party disembarks.

Thank you so much.

Your Highness, I've just received a message.

Apparently the party that you are meeting with hasn't made contact with

driver or the security team.

Marika did not travel? No, no, she traveled.

She was on the Alicante inbound schedule, didn't she? But just now she

have disappeared.

Thank you so much.

I can't face going back to the hotel and seeing Gretel yet.

Just a few more hours of being normal.

Maybe my last chance.

As long as you don't mind our grotty flat.

It'd be grotty than mine used to be.

Ian!

Hey, Marika, this is my husband.

I didn't know you were married.

Leanne rang me.

Said that you were on some sort of daft suicide mission.

Giving away your uniform.

Driving with a lot of rum and cokes inside of you.

I'm here to get you back to the flat.

That's all.

Marika, get in. It's fine.

But we can drop off at the flat, and then you can take me home.

I knew you'd come back.

Our blessing uniforms are stuck at the flat.

Would it be okay if I came to pick them up?

I need to hand them in, now that I'm leaving.

Sure. I'll be out beautifying myself for the party tonight anyway.

Bye -bye.

KCM. You go shopping without me this afternoon, I'll take Michael back in my

scooter.

I'd rather do this alone.

If I didn't know you were incapable of it, I'd swear you had a crush on that

boy. Oh, please.

Right, well, thanks to his kindness, we are now all invited to the party this

evening. It is full security, so you will need passers to get in. Please pick

them up from personnel and then meet me back at the fresh centre at 6 .30 sharp.

Marco, can I have a word?

No. What do you mean, no?

Look, I promised myself I wouldn't do this again.

Don't worry.

Well, they've asked for a credit card.

Give them one.

It was rejected.

Hang on a minute. This is supposed to be my birthday present from you to me.

I'll pay you back.

I'm going to write that in your gravestone.

How much?

Well, 60 for the facial, 50 for the manicure. Hang on a minute.

I didn't have a manicure.

I did.

And 120 for the tint and highlight.

You are joking.

I need to look my best for tonight.

I swear to you on my mother's grave, you will get your money.

I'm getting maybe 20 grand.

I believe that when I see it. What's this prince going to do or say that's

to make so much money?

You don't see the way he looks, do you?

You're going to get sacked.

I haven't got a future with fresh will.

I've hardly flown in the last three months.

I am so desperate.

You've got no idea how broke I am.

I am insane.

Absolutely certifiable.

And I love you for it.

Yeah.

That's right.

What are you doing?

I asked you to pick up the rest of the stuff.

You didn't. So I brought it into work and now I'm delivering it for you.

I want to come home with you.

Can't we talk about this?

There's nothing to talk about.

There's your keys.

Liam, please don't leave me. Get off me.

No.

Look, if you don't forgive me, I don't know what I'll do to myself.

They must be all blackmail. No.

But it won't work this time.

You're all I've got.

Not quite. Or you wouldn't have fucked someone else the night before you

me. I was drunk when I slept with him, but actually it was you. Not him. I want

to be married to you.

I could probably just about forgive everything else.

But you would have let me bring up another man's kick and never told me.

It was you.

I'm going.

No. No, please.

If there's anything else you need, just call me. Thank you very much.

How is she?

He's given her some sleeping pills, so they should not cry for a bit till

gets back. I've left a message on her mobile.

I need to knit down the chemist at some point, too, to get a prescription he's

done for her. Well, I can stay with her.

Um... Marco, by the way.

I guess you're my replacement, the new housemate. Um, yes, uh, Marika.

Have you been with the airline long?

Uh, just today.

Baptism of fire.

Then that's typical fresh.

My first day was a nightmare.

Do you want a coffee?

Oh, please.

Oh, shit.

Uh, I'll have it black.

Okay, big smiles, please.

And again.

To you.

May I tell you that you are a stunning model.

Thank you.

My pleasure.

Your Highness, may I introduce you to our management team?

Yes, of course.

There must be an easier way than this.

Earning ten grand in ten days? I don't think so. Ten grand?

My credit card company are taking me to court.

When?

Today.

Today?

You didn't even show up, did you?

But we were in Orkney.

Katie, you could have asked for the time off.

So what have you done? Have you contacted your lawyer?

You don't even have a lawyer, do you? You idiot!

Casey, at least if you were there, you could have put your side of the argument

across. You could have worked out some sort of payment plan.

God only knows what they're going to do now. I suppose that's my 400 quid out

the window.

How can you spend so much money on getting your hair and nails done when

in this sort of mess, Casey?

I don't know, please don't say that.

Oh, God.

Problem, darling.

No. No, no.

Are we doing this or not?

Yeah.

We're doing it.

If you keep doing that, you'll be stuck with it forever.

No one here cleans.

It helps me think.

About what?

My boyfriend's asked me to marry him.

I'm trying to decide.

Surely you have to think about it. The answer's no.

Romantic. Aren't you?

You don't understand.

Bernard can offer me opportunities a girl like me would never get.

He's rich.

It's not the money.

His job takes him around the world. I visit fascinating places, meet all kinds

of people.

His family, they can't stand me.

Oh, that looks yummy.

Give me some of that.

Why don't his family like you?

Well, a few months ago, to help me pay for my studies, I danced in a club for

men.

They won't let me forget it.

Especially his mother.

Hmm.

More.

You haven't seen Marco, have you?

Why are you asking me?

It's called Small Talk, Janet.

Perhaps if you tried it, you'd like it.

Please move.

What am I supposed to do?

You don't honestly think he's going to come over and shag you on the spot, do

you?

Get real.

I need something to calm my nerves. What have you got?

Shh. There's too much security in press here. I don't bring a thing. You're

right.

Take that out of your own mouth. They don't know what it is. What? Can we go?

I'll do.

Boom, boom, boom, boom.

Not a single person to fag.

Hello, here, take this.

Hello, excuse me, you might want to fetch me again. I might be carrying.

Trust me, that's not a gun in my pocket. I'm just pleased to be toilet now.

Well, you don't beat me.

If you're going to bang him in the tiny toilet, which is the best angle for us,

you want to get your skates on.

They're going over to your office for the stages soon. You're talking to

What the hell am I supposed to do?

You figure it out.

I'm not going to wait for him to freeze.

So far you've told me about his money, his job, his family, and you haven't

a word about him.

What can I tell you?

He's kind, generous, intelligent.

He makes me laugh.

We're comfortable together.

He's a good lover.

He's not faithful, but I don't think marriage will change that.

But he won't leave me.

So he's a spoiled...

Dull, promiscuous mummy's boy.

Surprised a girl like you is even considering him.

Check me the bowl for the salad.

Stop!

You'll wake Emma.

If you're going to live here, you're going to have to get used to them.

I might love to.

I smell a wolf, a kid and a cockroach.

You're supposed to be marrying somebody else.

Ladies and gentlemen, if you have all the pictures you need, we'd like to take

you to the fresh centre now, where His Royal Highness will say a few words, and

a buffet supper will be served.

Thanks.

I'm really sorry.

This isn't what happened before.

Must be stress.

I'm really busy at work.

Don't go anywhere. I can do it. Just give me a minute, yeah?

Limp dick.

Sorry, I was... crap.

You were fine.

Exactly. Maybe I said you were fine unless you were the opposite.

Maybe your heart was not in it.

Why did you say that?

Well... You have someone else in your life too, no?

Not anymore. Anybody home?

Shit!

Holy shit!

Leanne! Come here and pinch me, will you?

Have they got a death penalty in Scandinavia?

All part of the fresh service, is it, mate?

Bagel for you, Your Royal Highness?

To your coffee, your Royal Highness.

Bang your bird for you, your Royal Highness. What does it mean, Royal

Oh, you're kidding.

I'm sorry.

Oh, Christ.

Where's Emma? She's asleep.

No, she ain't.

I don't understand.

Where exactly do you want? The fresh center is down there, at the end.

Here, love. It's much too much. Give me much too much money, love.

The only thing that keeps us going through the long Scandinavian winter is

dream of sunshine holidays in Greece or Turkey.

Well, thank you.

It's a private path. I work here. You need a path.

Hey! And so I give you... Fresh.

Fresh! Wait!

I want to work with you.

You wrecked my marriage, bitch.

You just had to tell him, didn't you?

Even though I kept my promise about the prostitution, Emma. Emma, don't. Let's

talk about this outside.

Get your hands off me!

You're as much to blame as she is.

Getting me drunk and shagging me on my head night.

And you.

Oh, you just had to tell him, didn't you?

Well, let's have a few home truths about you, shall we, Janice?

Guess what, everybody?

Your precious prince has been flying with a person that's nothing more than a

cheap hooker!

Get off me! Get off!

I am...

Oh, sorry, Your Royal Highness.

The young woman in question is being dealt with, I can assure you.

Some sort of mental breakdown... Not a problem.

Well, she must be somewhere, so keep trying the mobile and check the hotel

again, OK?

What are you doing?

We have deadlines and we've got a story.

But I know that I can get him.

You'll never pull it off now.

His limo arrives in about ten minutes.

Well, then, just give me ten minutes.

Please.

Give me the paper.

Your Highness, Cassandra Gregory we met this morning.

How could I forget?

You wanted me to advise you on your niece.

The one who wants to become a flight attendant.

I've scribbled down a local contact that might be of use.

Good suggestion, Cassandra.

I would like to look into it.

I think this is where we say goodbye.

I'll go in first.

Give me a couple of minutes.

That's just as well as giving him a notice, because I reckon that's about me

being so late.

Sorry. No need.

Have you thought of what you're going to do about his proposal?

I think so.

I hope you'll be happy.

Thank you.

You too.

You're very sweet, Michael.

Whoever the other woman is, she's crazy to lose you.

Janice. Bertie.

Ricard.

How are they?

They're getting the variety today.

Come, come, come, come.

What's happened?

Good news.

If you were leaving on my account, I wouldn't bother.

I'm probably going to get fired anyway.

They're going to sack me, aren't they?

I think you know what's coming.

She hasn't been well.

Her marriage has broken up, and a lot of this is my fault.

He didn't bring this airline into disrepute in front of half the world's

He did.

Emma, I'm going to need your ID card and your

company credit card.

I'm also going to need your locker key and security pass.

I don't have my security card.

Send it in.

We'll forward your P45 to your home address.

I don't have a home.

Perhaps you can come in and collect it.

I'm sorry it had to end this way, Emma.

You had a very promising career ahead of you.

I didn't let you give a fuck.

Emma?

You're not listening to me. I'm not in the mood, Marco. Just piss off, will

No, you piss off.

Do you know where I was this afternoon?

In bed with a stunning blonde.

Not a day over 25.

Why are you telling me this?

Because the only way I could come in there was by closing my eyes and

she was you.

Well, if it was me you wanted to fuck, why didn't you?

I gave you the chance.

I told you I wouldn't be taken home by you when you feel randy and then ignored

and humiliated the rest of the time.

I've got nothing else to give you. Yes, you do.

Forget Janice.

I know you.

I've been with you in the middle of the night.

You want it just as much as I do, in spite of all your crap.

Just take my hand.

That's all you have to do.

Walk out there into the party and show everyone we're a couple.

Don't do this to me, for God's sake.

You're just like the rest of us, really.

You want to be happy.

And you think that you can make me happy?

Yes.

Because you don't know shit.

Marco, you're 19 years old. I'm 34.

We've got nothing in common apart from the sex.

And when the thrill of that wears off and I give it six months tops, you start

to notice that.

You start to notice that your friends are laughing at you for being with a

that's nearly old enough to be a mother.

And then soon... You won't need to think of me to get hard when some 24 -year

-old blonde walks by.

Come on. You'll resent me.

Keeping you from all those things that guys your age are doing.

And then one day I'll come home and you... You'll be gone.

And I'll be on my own again.

What if it doesn't end like that? It always does.

You can't turn this down because of what might or might not happen in six

months' time.

Come on.

Just take my hand.

I can't.

Do

you

speak English?

A little.

So you wouldn't have the faintest clue what I'm saying to you right now, would

you?

Good.

Because I think I'm going mad.

I mean, there's something wrong with my brain, and there's no one else I can

talk to.

You see, I should be trying to drag you off for a shag right now.

I mean, you're definitely my type. You're young, cute.

You've got those gorgeous foreign eyes and a tight backside.

And you're definitely up for it.

So why... don't I want to shag you, eh?

I mean, what's wrong with me?

Marika, how did his highness pop the question?

Well, the first time was in Norway, on a lake at the university, and the second

time was just now.

He got down on one knee in one of those, what do you call them, briefing rooms?

And what made you say yes?

Well, I think I can make him happy.

I can help him in his work. I hope I can.

But most of all, because I love him.

When's the big day?

Have you told him anything?

Something's not following me. I know you. You'll do something stupid.

Em, look, for Christ's sake, this is all my fault.

Will you let me try and make it better?

Let me call Ian.

Are you trying to patch up my marriage? I'm going to call him. Tell him to come

and get me.

What's his number?

Em, wait!

Wait! He's seen me a thousand times. For Christ's sake!

Anything left to drink?

Where the hell have you been?

Don't start on me, Will.

What's the matter?

I was with a woman this afternoon.

In your room, actually.

She was gorgeous.

Blonde.

Sexy. Throwing herself at me.

I had every man's fantasy.

And the only way I could... The only way I could do it was by pretending she was

somebody else.

So what, you're in love with someone?

I hate it.

Here.

Get some more of that down you.

So, um, do I know this person?

Don't want to say.

Yeah.

As they must work for the airline.

I don't want that sort of relationship.

I've tried to fight it. I've tried pretending I wasn't feeling the way I

feeling, but... I just can't help myself.

I know how you feel.

You do?

Yeah. I'll be waiting for you to tell me for a week.

Where is she?

She's in there.

She's not good.

She's lost her job.

But, Ian, for this worth, she loves you, not me.

I could see that, and that's why I gave up.

This is all my... doing.

I'll take you back to your mum's.

I wanted to do it.

Emma. I wanted the pain to be over.

This isn't the answer.

You always said the job would kill me.

You were right.

I don't know what I'm supposed to say.

That you love me.

I mean, I know what it's like to feel the way you're feeling.

I've been going out of my mind the past few weeks. It's horrible.

You're in love too.

Look, let's not do this here, yeah?

Casey's been gone for ages. He's probably pulled. Let's go back to my

we can have a proper chat.

Did you hear something?

I like to watch you sleep at night To hear you

breathe By my side

And although sleep leaves me behind

There's nowhere I'd rather be

And now

I... bed is oh so cold my hands feel empty

no one to hold and i

can't sleep what's that i want it's not the same

with you gone oh

if you'd come home

To know that all you want Is right

here in this room All you

want Where's Ian?

I don't know what happened. He was going to take her to her mother's, but she

wouldn't go with him.

I'm sorry, Leanne. I didn't know who else to call.

It's okay.

It's all right, babe.

Come on, let's get you home.

You need me to drive you? No, it's all right, thanks.

I'm sorry.

I'd like to watch you sleep at night.

Say a prayer by my side.

Hail the joy and hail the fun.

Now it's time for me to get on top of the world.

Just the world is mine. Just the world is mine.
