1
00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:58,560
Hi.

2
00:00:58,720 --> 00:00:59,720
Hey.

3
00:00:59,980 --> 00:01:00,980
How you doing?

4
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,220
Good, thanks. How are you? I'm good.

5
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:05,040
Good.

6
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:07,199
You're late.

7
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:08,600
I'm late. I'm sorry I'm late.

8
00:01:09,340 --> 00:01:10,340
It's okay.

9
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,960
I'm about 10, 15 minutes late in life.

10
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:14,520
I've realized.

11
00:01:15,180 --> 00:01:16,300
You're always late.

12
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,600
Yeah. It might be a good thing for you
to bear that in mind.

13
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:22,240
Okay.

14
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:24,640
What were you thinking when I texted
you?

15
00:01:28,330 --> 00:01:29,330
You mean the honest answer?

16
00:01:29,750 --> 00:01:30,750
Yeah.

17
00:01:31,090 --> 00:01:32,090
Ooh.

18
00:01:32,370 --> 00:01:33,650
Only the honest answer.

19
00:01:33,970 --> 00:01:36,370
I was thinking, oh, this guy.

20
00:01:36,990 --> 00:01:37,990
Oh, this guy?

21
00:01:38,190 --> 00:01:39,190
This guy.

22
00:01:39,750 --> 00:01:45,150
I don't know. Like, if it was anyone
else, I would have probably dismissed

23
00:01:47,690 --> 00:01:48,690
Okay.

24
00:01:49,110 --> 00:01:52,750
I don't know. I felt... I don't know
why. I don't know why I felt this

25
00:01:52,750 --> 00:01:54,530
differently.

26
00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,119
That's good.

27
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:00,120
Yeah.

28
00:02:05,860 --> 00:02:06,860
Okay.

29
00:02:13,700 --> 00:02:14,700
Look.

30
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,700
Together for over 65 years.

31
00:02:18,980 --> 00:02:22,260
Yeah. Let me not to the marriage of true
minds.

32
00:02:22,660 --> 00:02:23,660
All right.

33
00:02:27,050 --> 00:02:28,470
I have to sit here now.

34
00:02:28,810 --> 00:02:29,810
Okay.

35
00:02:30,250 --> 00:02:31,250
Wow.

36
00:02:32,650 --> 00:02:35,110
65 years. Imagine being with someone for
65 years.

37
00:02:35,630 --> 00:02:36,630
That's crazy.

38
00:02:37,430 --> 00:02:38,430
Yeah.

39
00:02:41,330 --> 00:02:44,110
Is that a dream? Would that be the
dream? Is that your dream?

40
00:02:50,630 --> 00:02:52,590
Maybe, yeah. The right person.

41
00:02:56,270 --> 00:03:00,010
If she can't really know, can't really
know that's starting out.

42
00:03:02,370 --> 00:03:03,370
Yeah,

43
00:03:05,930 --> 00:03:09,330
that would be... The idea of it's nice.

44
00:03:11,490 --> 00:03:12,490
I think so.

45
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,260
I just wanted to say I hope you like me
as much as I like you.

46
00:05:44,380 --> 00:05:45,380
Yeah.

47
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,900
All right, then. No worries. Thank you
very much, though.

48
00:05:49,780 --> 00:05:51,320
All right. Cheers, buddy.

49
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:52,920
Cheers. Thanks.

50
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:08,840
So you've been on many of these...

51
00:06:10,420 --> 00:06:11,420
Swipe right dates.

52
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,320
No, I'm pretty new to it, actually.

53
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:16,680
Oh, yeah?

54
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:17,720
Yeah.

55
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:18,920
What did you do before?

56
00:06:21,340 --> 00:06:22,720
Fell into things by accident.

57
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,080
Oh, okay.

58
00:06:24,620 --> 00:06:26,820
What about you? You've done this a lot.

59
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:32,760
Yeah, I've defeated, I've clocked the
dating apps. I'm waiting for, like,

60
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:33,679
two to come out.

61
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,660
Oh, you've completed it. I've completed
it, yeah.

62
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:37,140
Clocked. That's gaming.

63
00:06:37,460 --> 00:06:38,419
Okay, sorry.

64
00:06:38,420 --> 00:06:39,420
The term.

65
00:06:40,420 --> 00:06:43,160
Yeah, no, a lot, a lot, and I should
stop.

66
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,920
But when you're just in the office all
the time and you're sort of like, you're

67
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,860
seeing the same people, then you've got
your time's precious.

68
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:52,840
You've got a lot of time, you know, it
makes sense.

69
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:54,960
Yeah.

70
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,480
And good experiences?

71
00:07:02,060 --> 00:07:05,800
Good and bad. Sometimes people look
nothing like their picture.

72
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,980
And if you're going to sound bad, but
like...

73
00:07:09,210 --> 00:07:11,530
One girl literally turned up, and she
had, like, two extra tints.

74
00:07:12,290 --> 00:07:15,150
Now, I know that sounds... You know what
I mean, though? It's like, why are we

75
00:07:15,150 --> 00:07:16,150
starting on a lie?

76
00:07:16,550 --> 00:07:20,950
I don't have a problem. I don't
necessarily need a girl to be skinny, or

77
00:07:20,950 --> 00:07:23,830
really bothered about size, but, like,
let's not start on a lie.

78
00:07:24,130 --> 00:07:26,810
We're starting a date with an elephant
in the room. Do you know what I mean?

79
00:07:27,650 --> 00:07:28,650
An elephant in the room?

80
00:07:29,030 --> 00:07:30,370
No, I don't... Sorry.

81
00:07:32,030 --> 00:07:33,970
Sorry, I know what you're saying. I know
what you're saying. Yeah, you know what

82
00:07:33,970 --> 00:07:34,970
I'm saying.

83
00:07:35,950 --> 00:07:38,470
So what made you start swiping?

84
00:07:44,750 --> 00:07:51,390
I don't know. I guess I'm hoping to meet
some interesting people, maybe,

85
00:07:51,490 --> 00:07:53,630
and just see what happens.

86
00:07:54,530 --> 00:08:01,470
You're not looking for anything
specific, or...? What, like, husbands,

87
00:08:03,250 --> 00:08:04,250
What, Adam?

88
00:08:04,470 --> 00:08:07,330
I don't mean, like, second date, let's
get married, but... Yeah.

89
00:08:07,610 --> 00:08:11,130
You're going there with intention. Like,
some people are on it just to have a

90
00:08:11,130 --> 00:08:13,470
shag, and some people are on it for
other things.

91
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,580
Yeah, possibly, possibly.

92
00:08:17,940 --> 00:08:21,740
I haven't made up my mind about all that
stuff yet.

93
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:25,600
At all?

94
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,660
At your age? Not like that. I know it
sounds bad, but at your age, you must

95
00:08:30,660 --> 00:08:32,559
thought about it, clock ticking, all
that.

96
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:40,419
Well... Yeah, I've thought about it. I
haven't decided.

97
00:08:44,650 --> 00:08:45,650
You ever thought about a kid?

98
00:08:47,490 --> 00:08:48,490
Thought about it.

99
00:08:48,710 --> 00:08:49,830
Still thinking about it.

100
00:08:52,030 --> 00:08:57,770
But I... I suppose I just, I don't know
exactly what it is that I want yet. And

101
00:08:57,770 --> 00:08:59,490
I'm still trying to figure it out.

102
00:09:03,210 --> 00:09:04,210
So why are you on the date?

103
00:09:08,770 --> 00:09:09,770
This date?

104
00:09:09,970 --> 00:09:10,970
Yeah, why are you on this date?

105
00:09:14,570 --> 00:09:18,350
I don't know. I thought we were getting
to know each other, having a chat.

106
00:09:19,570 --> 00:09:23,750
You seem like an interesting guy. I
thought we could see what happens.

107
00:09:25,030 --> 00:09:28,070
When you say see what happens, do you
mean actually see what happens? Yeah.

108
00:09:31,270 --> 00:09:32,270
You look annoyed.

109
00:09:32,410 --> 00:09:37,050
I'm not annoyed. I just know what I want
out of this. And if I meet someone, I'm

110
00:09:37,050 --> 00:09:41,310
meeting, thinking, what is this and what
can this be?

111
00:09:43,070 --> 00:09:48,290
I don't mean to put pressure or anything
like that. I just mean I have to waste

112
00:09:48,290 --> 00:09:50,870
a lot of time. I've been on a lot of
these dates and I just feel sometimes

113
00:09:50,870 --> 00:09:55,210
getting a little bit frustrated when
someone's just come out of a

114
00:09:55,210 --> 00:09:57,110
or someone's not ready.

115
00:09:57,390 --> 00:10:00,190
I sort of just feel like I need to be a
lot more honest.

116
00:10:00,410 --> 00:10:05,390
So I know that can be abrasive for some
people, but yeah, that's what I'm

117
00:10:05,390 --> 00:10:06,390
asking.

118
00:10:07,590 --> 00:10:11,570
Because I don't think you know what you
want. See, I think you're wasting my

119
00:10:11,570 --> 00:10:12,570
time.

120
00:10:12,940 --> 00:10:17,180
I think you're here to find yourself, or
use me to find yourself, or use me to

121
00:10:17,180 --> 00:10:20,820
find what you really want, and I just
fucking wasted my time to do this.

122
00:10:22,220 --> 00:10:24,860
So, I think we should just leave it
here, yeah?

123
00:10:26,020 --> 00:10:27,080
Okay. I'm right, right?

124
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:30,880
I'm... I'm right, right?

125
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,640
Yeah, fucking joke. You think you're
right. I'm right. Okay. Don't waste my

126
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:36,640
fucking time. Peace.

127
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,360
What do you want, Mum?

128
00:11:18,460 --> 00:11:19,800
Um, herbal, please.

129
00:11:28,300 --> 00:11:29,300
Chamomile, all right?

130
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:30,880
Lovely.

131
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,140
Do you want me to leave your tea bag in?

132
00:11:43,820 --> 00:11:44,820
Yes, please.

133
00:11:59,950 --> 00:12:02,670
Do you remember what your grandmother
used to say?

134
00:12:04,910 --> 00:12:09,790
She used to say, there is no path to
happiness.

135
00:12:12,110 --> 00:12:14,450
Happiness is the path. Yeah.

136
00:12:18,770 --> 00:12:22,270
It feels strange not having her there.

137
00:12:22,870 --> 00:12:27,290
But you have to build your own
happiness, Hannah.

138
00:12:28,620 --> 00:12:31,440
You are very smart. You're strong.

139
00:12:32,780 --> 00:12:33,860
You're beautiful.

140
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,360
Yeah, you are, really.

141
00:12:37,900 --> 00:12:41,740
And you can have everything, Hannah.

142
00:12:42,460 --> 00:12:44,480
But it doesn't happen by itself.

143
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:51,540
And sometimes you have to make conscious
decisions about what you want in life

144
00:12:51,540 --> 00:12:57,020
and make a plan and stick to it.

145
00:12:58,190 --> 00:12:59,450
You don't need to worry about me, Mum.

146
00:13:00,570 --> 00:13:01,570
I'm all right.

147
00:13:03,250 --> 00:13:04,330
I'm fine, Mum.

148
00:13:05,250 --> 00:13:08,410
And I don't think you are, Hannah. I'm
happy, Mum.

149
00:13:08,790 --> 00:13:10,690
I really don't think you are.

150
00:13:11,650 --> 00:13:18,330
I know this is going to sound silly,
Hannah.

151
00:13:19,470 --> 00:13:22,890
But one day you're going to wake up and
you're going to be 40.

152
00:13:24,330 --> 00:13:27,530
Well, they say that 40 is a new...

153
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:32,660
20, 50, 30, so... Not that bad.

154
00:13:32,980 --> 00:13:34,720
You might look great.

155
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:42,540
But your body will be that of a 40 -year
-old woman, and... I don't want

156
00:13:42,540 --> 00:13:49,520
you to... miss out on building a family
and sharing

157
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:50,760
your life with somebody.

158
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:57,120
Of building a really loving, meaningful
relationship.

159
00:13:57,950 --> 00:14:01,710
God, Mum. All I really care about is
your happiness.

160
00:14:02,330 --> 00:14:07,390
I don't want to just sit here and watch
you and have cups of tea once a month

161
00:14:07,390 --> 00:14:11,830
while your life just drifts by. Mum,
please, please, please drop this.

162
00:14:12,410 --> 00:14:15,190
I'm sorry. I'm sorry that you don't have
grandkids.

163
00:14:15,790 --> 00:14:21,130
It's not about that, Hannah. It's not
about me having grandchildren.

164
00:14:21,550 --> 00:14:23,950
It's about the whole of your life,
darling.

165
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,560
You can't meet Mr. Wonderful when you're
60, darling.

166
00:14:44,740 --> 00:14:45,740
Hi, Mum.

167
00:15:57,930 --> 00:16:01,330
You take a step, my heart beats on my
chest.

168
00:16:01,610 --> 00:16:05,530
And if you need to tell, then you are
like the rest.

169
00:16:05,790 --> 00:16:09,550
Now that you've made your way, it's time
for us to play.

170
00:16:09,910 --> 00:16:13,370
And when I'm done with you, you'll take
a mercy.

171
00:16:14,070 --> 00:16:19,970
We like you. We like you. We like you.

172
00:16:57,420 --> 00:16:59,620
Hello. How are you doing?

173
00:16:59,960 --> 00:17:00,960
Hey, darling.

174
00:17:01,300 --> 00:17:03,780
How are you doing? I'm good, thanks. How
are you?

175
00:17:04,060 --> 00:17:05,060
Yeah, good.

176
00:17:05,079 --> 00:17:06,180
This is Gabriel.

177
00:17:06,579 --> 00:17:07,579
Oh, my gosh.

178
00:17:07,619 --> 00:17:09,660
Hello. He's gorgeous.

179
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:11,118
Oh, hi.

180
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:16,420
Yeah, he's quite cute, isn't he? Gosh,
I... Oh, thank you.

181
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,339
That's really kind. Thanks so much.

182
00:17:20,740 --> 00:17:21,740
Yes.

183
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:23,380
How are you?

184
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:25,339
I'm good. I mean...

185
00:17:25,589 --> 00:17:29,290
The lack of sleep thing is difficult,
but apart from that, I feel really good.

186
00:17:29,510 --> 00:17:32,050
I feel really happy, quite contented.

187
00:17:32,330 --> 00:17:36,170
I don't think I was expecting to feel
the big love rush thing everyone talks

188
00:17:36,170 --> 00:17:37,730
about, but it's all true.

189
00:17:39,870 --> 00:17:41,470
And Tim's been brilliant.

190
00:17:41,670 --> 00:17:44,870
He's been just an absolute Trojan.

191
00:17:45,330 --> 00:17:49,890
He's there every step of the way with
the 2am feeds and the 4am feeds and

192
00:17:49,890 --> 00:17:53,930
changing nappies in the middle of the
night. He takes it all in stride and

193
00:17:53,930 --> 00:17:57,120
he's... He's amazing. It's really
brought out the best in him, I think.

194
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,180
And the best in us, I think.

195
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:00,640
Yay!

196
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,020
Yeah. Yeah.

197
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:09,640
Do you want to hold him?

198
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,120
Yeah. Yeah? Why not?

199
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:13,660
Cool. Are you sure?

200
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:14,880
Yeah.

201
00:18:15,260 --> 00:18:16,260
He's quite ill.

202
00:18:17,140 --> 00:18:19,260
Which side do you want his head?

203
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,600
Left or right? Yeah, right I guess.
Straight over.

204
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:27,460
I need to wake up. Oh, God, quick.

205
00:18:59,409 --> 00:19:02,250
I'm so happy for you. Oh, thank you.

206
00:19:03,350 --> 00:19:04,350
Amazing.

207
00:19:05,550 --> 00:19:06,770
Amazing what you've done.

208
00:19:09,430 --> 00:19:10,430
Oh, love.

209
00:19:13,350 --> 00:19:15,690
Oh, love, what's going on? Nothing,
honestly.

210
00:19:16,530 --> 00:19:18,090
Come on, are you all right? What's
happening?

211
00:19:19,090 --> 00:19:20,090
Fine.

212
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,140
Yeah. Ian, how are you doing?

213
00:20:43,660 --> 00:20:44,660
I'm good, thanks. How are you?

214
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:45,960
Great. Good.

215
00:20:46,460 --> 00:20:50,520
Sorry if I've kept you waiting. No, no,
no, not at all. It's been, like, ten

216
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:51,519
minutes. It's fine.

217
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:55,840
It's fine. I ordered a sort of small
beer, and I've drunk a bit of it, so I'm

218
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,120
pretty much raring to go. Do you want a
drink?

219
00:20:58,820 --> 00:20:59,820
Yeah, why not?

220
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:02,280
What can I get you?

221
00:21:02,740 --> 00:21:05,900
Can I have a vodka cranberry juice,
please? Sure, no problem.

222
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,160
Thank you.

223
00:21:10,890 --> 00:21:11,890
How was your day?

224
00:21:13,930 --> 00:21:14,930
Good.

225
00:21:15,070 --> 00:21:18,890
Good. I do like freelance copywriting.

226
00:21:19,490 --> 00:21:20,490
I'll tell you what I wrote.

227
00:21:20,830 --> 00:21:24,930
Right. There's a button you have to
click to get into the website.

228
00:21:25,750 --> 00:21:29,590
And I gave them five different options.

229
00:21:29,870 --> 00:21:33,410
And we went with, eventually, click
here.

230
00:21:34,690 --> 00:21:36,510
So there you go. Three years at
university.

231
00:21:36,850 --> 00:21:37,850
Pretty solid.

232
00:21:38,930 --> 00:21:39,930
So there you go.

233
00:21:44,300 --> 00:21:45,300
Here's a romance.

234
00:21:45,340 --> 00:21:51,500
Sometimes I want to meet someone who I
can find peace with, titled fucking

235
00:21:51,500 --> 00:21:56,420
Tranquility. But then... But then
sometimes I just want...

236
00:21:56,420 --> 00:22:00,180
Fucking chaos, you know?

237
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:07,120
All that person to be mad and drive me
insane and torment me even more, you

238
00:22:07,120 --> 00:22:08,120
know?

239
00:22:08,660 --> 00:22:12,380
So tell me, what's Hannah looking for?
What are you after?

240
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:20,600
I don't know, I suppose when it comes to
a relationship, I want to have the

241
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,100
freedom to be myself.

242
00:22:25,300 --> 00:22:26,520
Like, completely myself.

243
00:22:27,540 --> 00:22:34,300
And... I don't know if I've ever really
had that in a

244
00:22:34,300 --> 00:22:35,300
relationship.

245
00:22:36,700 --> 00:22:43,040
Like, don't we want contradictory things
from people? Like, we like the idea

246
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:49,600
of... Safety and security and love and
care and someone to feel like home.

247
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,840
And of course we want that. We need
that. But then there's another side of

248
00:22:53,840 --> 00:23:00,760
that wants novelty and excitement and
the new. And I don't know how you

249
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:05,760
resolve that. I don't know how you
resolve that with just one person. So I

250
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,380
that I don't want to be tied down.

251
00:23:08,340 --> 00:23:12,120
I know that I want excitement.

252
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:15,760
I like that.

253
00:23:19,060 --> 00:23:25,060
I... I don't know, I guess sometimes I
feel like I'm a bit of a freak.

254
00:23:26,820 --> 00:23:33,680
Compared to other women that I know. I
mean, most of my friends from school and

255
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:38,800
uni, they're already settling down. Some
are on their, you know, their second or

256
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,840
third kids.

257
00:23:42,990 --> 00:23:48,170
I worry sometimes that I'm going to be
left behind before I figure my shit out,

258
00:23:48,290 --> 00:23:49,290
you know?

259
00:23:52,030 --> 00:23:53,030
I don't know.

260
00:23:53,970 --> 00:23:54,970
Yeah.

261
00:23:56,370 --> 00:23:59,870
Pretty fucking incredible as far as I'm
concerned.

262
00:24:04,110 --> 00:24:05,110
Um,

263
00:24:05,710 --> 00:24:09,010
just going to go to the loo. Yeah,
that's fine. Sorry.

264
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,000
Come on, let's go back upstairs.

265
00:25:00,360 --> 00:25:01,299
Let's go back upstairs.

266
00:25:01,300 --> 00:25:02,460
Come on, straight up, straight up.

267
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,440
So, yeah, I was telling you that my
parents had a dinner party a few weeks

268
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:14,340
and they were, like, had all their
friends over and they were all, like,

269
00:26:14,340 --> 00:26:20,180
brought all their kids and it was, like,
so mental, but it was so, so, so fun.

270
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:26,900
We had, like, this huge table for all,
like, my mum and dad's friends and then

271
00:26:26,900 --> 00:26:28,500
we had, like, another table for all the
kids.

272
00:26:28,740 --> 00:26:33,000
And it was just... so fun like everybody
was together and they were all telling

273
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:37,620
stories about being on holidays with
their kids and like kids were like

274
00:26:37,620 --> 00:26:40,300
about or being friends together they've
all known each other since they were

275
00:26:40,300 --> 00:26:46,280
little and i was just like oh my god
like i want that like

276
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:53,020
i want to have that relationship with
someone that's like my person my

277
00:26:53,020 --> 00:26:59,820
partner and my husband and i want to
have The house and the white picket

278
00:26:59,820 --> 00:27:06,680
and the children and the dog and the
nice kitchen with the

279
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:13,560
island in the middle. And I know that
sounds materialistic, but I think

280
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:14,560
it's more than that.

281
00:27:15,020 --> 00:27:20,400
I don't know. I guess I just don't see
the point in being in a relationship for

282
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:21,400
the sake of it.

283
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,580
What's the point? What's the point in
being with someone who isn't right just

284
00:27:25,580 --> 00:27:26,580
because you're scared of being alone?

285
00:27:27,300 --> 00:27:34,260
You know, I would rather be on my own
than be with someone who isn't right.

286
00:27:35,100 --> 00:27:39,800
And I see so many women, so many people
that we know, they've panicked and they

287
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,920
have settled for, like, the next guy
that's like, he'll do, like, I've just

288
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:47,900
to have kids. And I just, I don't want
to be that person. I want something

289
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:49,680
I do.

290
00:27:52,129 --> 00:27:56,130
And you know what my biggest fear is? My
biggest fear is that actually I'm

291
00:27:56,130 --> 00:28:01,010
getting it wrong and... And maybe my
mum's right. I'm going to wake up and

292
00:28:01,010 --> 00:28:03,590
going to be... And it's going to be too
late and I'm going to realise too late

293
00:28:03,590 --> 00:28:04,590
that that is what I want.

294
00:28:05,470 --> 00:28:09,650
That is what I want and I've fucked it
up. I'm terrified of fucking it up.

295
00:28:13,830 --> 00:28:15,310
Fucking ridiculous, actually.

296
00:28:18,330 --> 00:28:19,710
It's so fucking unfair.

297
00:28:20,490 --> 00:28:24,110
so fucking unfair that we even have to
think about this now guys can decide to

298
00:28:24,110 --> 00:28:29,030
have kids when they're 50 it's not an
issue but the moment we hit 35 it's like

299
00:28:29,030 --> 00:28:34,570
you've got to decide now or it's gonna
be too late and like you know what we've

300
00:28:34,570 --> 00:28:38,490
been told from like our teenage years to
our 20s like it's like the worst thing

301
00:28:38,490 --> 00:28:41,470
that can happen is to get pregnant it's
like at the end your life will be over

302
00:28:41,470 --> 00:28:43,990
right that's what we're told that's like
drilled into us from

303
00:28:44,780 --> 00:28:48,660
such a young age and then suddenly it's
like it switches it goes from like don't

304
00:28:48,660 --> 00:28:52,980
get pregnant to like you better fucking
get pregnant or or you've missed your

305
00:28:52,980 --> 00:28:56,740
chance and that's like literally that
change happens in like five years in

306
00:28:56,740 --> 00:29:00,740
30s and it's just like what the fuck so
now in this tiny space of time i meant

307
00:29:00,740 --> 00:29:04,300
to find the guy the perfect guy the guy
that i could potentially spend the rest

308
00:29:04,300 --> 00:29:09,000
of my life with and do that and get all
that done i just think it's insane i

309
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,400
think it's crazy i think it's fucking
crazy i just

310
00:29:13,430 --> 00:29:17,010
And I don't want to buy into any of that
crap, but yet I still, obviously, I'm

311
00:29:17,010 --> 00:29:18,010
bothered by this crap.

312
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:46,640
Good morning. Morning.

313
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:48,760
Have you an appointment with Dr. Sarris?

314
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:49,960
Sure. Can I have your name?

315
00:31:50,220 --> 00:31:51,220
Hannah Lee.

316
00:31:52,380 --> 00:31:54,280
If you'd just like to take a seat here,
the room will be shortly.

317
00:32:16,059 --> 00:32:19,840
Obviously, it very much depends on who's
doing the egg freezing, what their age

318
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,240
is, and how many eggs we can get as
well.

319
00:32:22,460 --> 00:32:26,500
The success rate of somebody who's in
their 20s, where you might have 10 or 12

320
00:32:26,500 --> 00:32:29,680
eggs frozen, might be as high as 40 or
50 percent.

321
00:32:30,700 --> 00:32:34,780
But for a woman who's in her 40s, the
success rate can be as low as 1 percent.

322
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:39,840
So at the age that you are, very roughly
we'd expect about a 3 to 4 percent

323
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,840
chance of each egg to give us a baby.

324
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:47,420
Three to four. Correct. But of course,
if we have a number of eggs, 10 eggs or

325
00:32:47,420 --> 00:32:52,440
dozen eggs, for example, it can be
anywhere between 20, 25, maybe even 30 %

326
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:53,439
success rate.

327
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:57,120
Egg freezing is like an insurance
policy, but actually it's not a very

328
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:58,119
insurance policy.

329
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,320
Because you'd expect a good insurance
policy to pay out every time that you

330
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,760
it, as opposed to this is a might pay
out.

331
00:33:05,140 --> 00:33:08,000
But it's the best that we have.
Unfortunately, we have nothing better

332
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:12,300
It's hope, though, isn't it? It is hope,
but it wouldn't be right for me to tell

333
00:33:12,300 --> 00:33:17,760
somebody that this is a guarantee, when
in fact it's just a possibility.

334
00:33:40,270 --> 00:33:41,270
I'm so worried.

335
00:33:44,710 --> 00:33:45,710
Mum.

336
00:33:46,670 --> 00:33:47,649
It's okay.

337
00:33:47,650 --> 00:33:48,650
It went really well.

338
00:33:49,490 --> 00:33:50,490
Really well.

339
00:33:50,830 --> 00:33:51,830
Okay?

340
00:33:53,430 --> 00:33:58,190
He was amazing. The doctor, you know, he
really reassured me. We talked through

341
00:33:58,190 --> 00:34:02,230
everything and... Yeah, I'm going to do
it.

342
00:34:05,010 --> 00:34:06,010
I am.

343
00:34:07,150 --> 00:34:09,590
You should be happy for me. You should
be happy. I'm so happy that I'm going to

344
00:34:09,590 --> 00:34:12,510
have some options. I'm going to have
some more time.

345
00:34:14,770 --> 00:34:15,770
It's a good thing.

346
00:34:16,630 --> 00:34:17,969
It really is. It's a good thing.

347
00:34:19,030 --> 00:34:20,730
You know, yeah.

348
00:34:22,610 --> 00:34:27,830
I can, in a few years, if I've met
someone, I can, you know, we could do

349
00:34:27,830 --> 00:34:30,850
together. Or if I haven't met someone, I
could do it on my own. It's all

350
00:34:30,850 --> 00:34:31,850
possible.

351
00:34:32,770 --> 00:34:33,770
Brilliant, really.

352
00:34:35,070 --> 00:34:36,070
I promise you.

353
00:34:37,110 --> 00:34:38,170
Don't look so worried.

354
00:34:39,750 --> 00:34:40,750
Come here.

355
00:34:44,730 --> 00:34:45,730
It's all right.

356
00:34:48,770 --> 00:34:50,469
I really wish you'd been there,
actually.

357
00:34:51,330 --> 00:34:55,150
If you'd heard what he had to say, I
think you'd feel so much better about

358
00:34:55,949 --> 00:34:56,949
Come on.

359
00:34:58,190 --> 00:35:00,150
Honestly, it's really exciting what they
can do.

360
00:35:02,410 --> 00:35:03,410
Okay.

361
00:35:03,770 --> 00:35:06,850
It's okay. Look, you were the one who
told me to come up with a plan. This is

362
00:35:06,850 --> 00:35:07,850
plan.

363
00:35:08,110 --> 00:35:09,110
It's a good plan.

364
00:35:09,670 --> 00:35:10,670
Are you sure?

365
00:35:10,890 --> 00:35:11,890
I'm sure.

366
00:35:23,290 --> 00:35:27,990
Okay, Hannah, what I'm going to do now
is I'm just going to insert the probe.

367
00:35:28,130 --> 00:35:30,870
You might feel a little bit of pressure.

368
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:38,260
And if you want, you can look at the
screen as well. So here I'm just looking

369
00:35:38,260 --> 00:35:39,260
the womb.

370
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,740
This little triangle inside of the
cavity.

371
00:35:42,020 --> 00:35:47,140
And you can see just here how on either
side the tubes are going out of the

372
00:35:47,140 --> 00:35:49,660
womb. And we'll check that a little bit
later.

373
00:35:50,980 --> 00:35:56,720
And here what we're looking at is the
ovarian one side, this little grey area.

374
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,320
And what I'm trying to see is how many
of the little black...

375
00:36:00,620 --> 00:36:03,180
spots I can see inside, which is where
eggs are developing.

376
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:11,360
Okay, so now that we've looked at the
ovaries and the womb, I'm just going to

377
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:15,400
arrange for you to have your blood test,
and after that, I'll see you back in

378
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:16,400
the consulting room.

379
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:23,520
So, for somebody of your age, we'd
expect to see 15 or 16 of these little

380
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:25,440
developing follicles with their eggs
inside.

381
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:30,700
But when I scanned you, unfortunately,
what I saw was... one follicle.

382
00:36:31,420 --> 00:36:36,320
Now, the blood test that we did is
another way of looking at what's

383
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:40,200
your ovaries. And again, your results
came back very low.

384
00:36:40,460 --> 00:36:45,040
In combination, those two tests tell us
that the number of eggs your ovary is

385
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:49,300
releasing every month is much less than
we would expect for someone of your age.

386
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:55,880
The final test that we did looks at the
tubes that connect the ovaries to the

387
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:56,880
womb.

388
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:58,500
And unfortunately,

389
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:05,860
What that test showed us is that both
tubes appear to be blocked and not to be

390
00:37:05,860 --> 00:37:06,860
working properly.

391
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:14,460
So, what exactly does that mean

392
00:37:14,460 --> 00:37:15,540
for me?

393
00:37:16,460 --> 00:37:20,620
Well, the chance of achieving a natural
pregnancy on your own is very low.

394
00:37:21,610 --> 00:37:26,370
Now, for egg freezing to be something
which is worthwhile from an insurance

395
00:37:26,370 --> 00:37:30,450
point of view, we would want to be able
to collect a good number of eggs. And

396
00:37:30,450 --> 00:37:36,470
based on today's information, we would
be

397
00:37:36,470 --> 00:37:42,010
very unlikely to be able to collect that
number of eggs, even with multiple

398
00:37:42,010 --> 00:37:43,110
cycles of egg freezing.

399
00:37:43,370 --> 00:37:48,230
Also, even if we tried to do something
like IVF, although not impossible,

400
00:37:49,020 --> 00:37:51,040
the chance of success will be very low
as well.

401
00:37:57,960 --> 00:37:58,960
Okay.

402
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,800
I know it's a lot to process right now.

403
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,300
We can arrange for another meeting to
talk about it again.

404
00:38:07,460 --> 00:38:12,100
Also, what a lot of women find useful is
maybe speak to a counsellor. I can give

405
00:38:12,100 --> 00:38:13,900
you details for that as well.

406
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:16,520
Okay, yeah.

407
00:38:17,950 --> 00:38:20,370
Yeah, that would be good. Thank you.
Thank you.

408
00:38:20,850 --> 00:38:23,690
Do you have any other questions?
Anything else I can help you with at

409
00:38:23,690 --> 00:38:24,690
moment?

410
00:38:26,530 --> 00:38:27,990
No, no. No other questions.

411
00:38:28,630 --> 00:38:29,750
Thanks very much.

412
00:42:16,710 --> 00:42:18,610
Because I get bored of people so easily.

413
00:42:24,190 --> 00:42:29,670
I mean, at this bit, for example, most
of the time, like, after...

414
00:42:29,670 --> 00:42:35,930
After I've done it, like, I just kind
of...

415
00:42:35,930 --> 00:42:39,570
I'm not interested anymore.

416
00:42:39,790 --> 00:42:41,150
Like, I could take it or leave it.

417
00:42:52,490 --> 00:42:53,490
I'm really liking this.

418
00:42:57,830 --> 00:42:59,890
I'm really, really liking this.

419
00:43:00,630 --> 00:43:07,570
I just kind of... I don't want to leave.

420
00:43:09,350 --> 00:43:10,350
I, um...

421
00:43:10,350 --> 00:43:17,190
I don't want to mess this

422
00:43:17,190 --> 00:43:18,190
up.

423
00:43:22,730 --> 00:43:24,090
We don't have to worry about kids.

424
00:43:25,210 --> 00:43:28,590
This is just about you and me.

425
00:43:30,950 --> 00:43:33,090
This could be that 65 -year thing.

426
00:43:35,470 --> 00:43:36,790
This is the one.

427
00:43:50,170 --> 00:43:51,170
Fucking hell.

428
00:43:58,540 --> 00:44:02,160
I don't get you. I do not get it. Are
you telling me all that stuff you said

429
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:03,820
me about how I make you feel?

430
00:44:04,300 --> 00:44:05,300
You do. Right?

431
00:44:05,860 --> 00:44:08,140
And now you just want to dash it all
away.

432
00:44:08,700 --> 00:44:09,720
That's not what I'm saying.

433
00:44:10,240 --> 00:44:14,720
I can't carry on with you as if nothing
has happened. Things have changed for

434
00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:15,720
me.

435
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:21,480
And I feel like I can be okay, but I
need some time.

436
00:44:23,020 --> 00:44:26,440
Honestly, I don't think I can be in a
relationship right now.

437
00:44:29,130 --> 00:44:30,310
Can you understand that?

438
00:44:31,970 --> 00:44:37,090
Isn't there a world, right, where I can
help with that? I don't want you... I

439
00:44:37,090 --> 00:44:41,130
cannot rely on someone else to get me
through this. I need to know that I've

440
00:44:41,130 --> 00:44:42,130
done it for myself.

441
00:44:42,310 --> 00:44:46,090
And I'm sorry, I know you want to be the
knight in shining armour and you want

442
00:44:46,090 --> 00:44:50,610
to just, you know, help me pick up the
pieces, but to be honest, I don't mean

443
00:44:50,610 --> 00:44:53,810
sound disrespectful, but I need to. I
need you to understand why I need to do

444
00:44:53,810 --> 00:44:54,810
this by myself.

445
00:44:56,510 --> 00:44:57,510
I have to.
