I don't have to do it all. 162 00:18:00,517 --> 00:18:05,917 I'll start with Cully and then when I've had enough, I'll just stop. 163 00:18:05,917 --> 00:18:10,237 There is one little flaw in this plan of yours, Mrs Barnaby. 164 00:18:10,237 --> 00:18:13,437 You do not have a bike. 165 00:18:13,437 --> 00:18:14,957 Mm... 166 00:18:18,637 --> 00:18:21,077 I don't enjoy asking you about this, Dad, 167 00:18:21,077 --> 00:18:25,677 but since George Jeffers doesn't seem to communicate with anyone at St Frideswide's these days, 168 00:18:25,677 --> 00:18:29,237 I'm forced to try other means. Bicycles, son. 169 00:18:29,237 --> 00:18:32,837 What do you mean, 'bicycles'? All I ever talk to him about is bicycles. 170 00:18:32,837 --> 00:18:35,637 Anything else he does is beyond me. It's beyond most people. 171 00:18:35,637 --> 00:18:38,757 And more to the point, it's not my business. 172 00:18:38,757 --> 00:18:42,637 It's not your business he's putting the future of the college at risk? 173 00:18:42,637 --> 00:18:44,797 Cos that's what it amounts to. 174 00:18:44,797 --> 00:18:48,837 It's not been easy persuading Soft Earth Systems to put up millions. 175 00:18:48,837 --> 00:18:51,437 Is George happy to lose it? 176 00:18:51,437 --> 00:18:54,277 I need to know if he's going to take it that far. 177 00:18:54,277 --> 00:18:56,917 He must talk to you about the college, Dad. 178 00:18:56,917 --> 00:18:59,197 You knew him when he was an undergraduate 179 00:18:59,197 --> 00:19:01,157 and you were the head porter. 180 00:19:01,157 --> 00:19:02,997 Surely you care, Dad? Bicycles, son. 181 00:19:04,917 --> 00:19:07,117 I won't let him do it. 182 00:19:07,117 --> 00:19:09,877 It's not just about money.
