Although we didn't get out

I really must make tracks.

Why don't you check with security?

Hi, Ben. Look at you.

Waiting for six checkouts.

Any chance I can get five minutes?

Ooh, Ben, come here.

We're just here to stop anyone

Morning, sir. Everything all right?

My name is John Boyack

He'll be fine.

It means we get a few minutes'

What's wrong with her?

She's having a hypoglycaemic attack.

Well, what do we do?

They'll take her.

Rachel, pass me that box.

What are you doing?

The sugar in the jam is absorbed

through the mucus membranes

I wasn't always a cleaner.

HE GASPS

Hey.

You OK?

It's Adam, isn't it?

Thank you.

They've got someone.

Come on, sir.

He's Sudanese. For Christ's sake,

his brothers and father

If he gets sent back,

Exactly what my boss will do to me

Look, I'll sack him.

We're not stupid.

You had, what? Two minutes,

He wasn't quick enough. We got him.

Jackie?

Jackie, can you...?

I am terribly sorry, everybody.

Erm, Gino, could you perhaps get

OK.

This guy's just rang down.

So, anyway,

and he thinks I'm gay.

Why does he think you're gay?

I told him I have a boyfriend.

What?

GINO: 'He's in my bar.

Thank you.

'And I'm being, you know,

'Just smiling and shit

'Anyway, eventually, he get up

'I had to say something.'

'So you told him you had

Yeah, he's a big fella.

This guy tip like an Arab,

so I need your help.

With what?

Make me more...

Believable?

You're the only gay I know.

You think I should lose

No! I think the moustache

Hey, Ben. Just the walking

You make me a real gay,

I'll bear that in mind.

I start looking at men's asses,

SHE TUTS

Hi. I need to speak to someone.

It's a little delicate.

I stayed here the night before last.

I trust you both had

Yeah. Yeah, it was great.

Erm, look, I need you

Well, to me, actually,

He's found a receipt for something

So I need you to send an email

I don't know, that it was a mistake

Was it a particularly

Yes. Yeah.

It was one of those mini bottles

You've got to admit,

Well, I'm afraid there's not a lot

The prices are listed

I know, it was stupid of me

but if you could just send

That's really not possible.

However, I will make a note

and on your next visit...

That man I was with,

Ah.

My husband thinks I was staying

Look, I know this is a lot to ask,

but, please,

No!

Hotel policy. We don't lie

Come on, Charlie.

Well, suppose he finds out?

Suppose he finds out and wants a

as evidence in court.

We're not here to cover up

I've told her it'll be fine.

I mean, I am saying this out loud?

It's not up to you to

If you're wondering

And you wouldn't want to commit

'I'm really sorry.'

No. Right.

OK. Thanks, anyway.

Erm, this isn't because

I am gonna tell him.

The other man, he's gonna tell

I care deeply about my husband.

He deserves better

Wait a second.

Give me your email address.

I'll say that we've had a glitch

and the computer's putting out

Oh, God, thank you.

I'll put my mobile number

I'm not proud of this,

I fell in love.

You're a doctor in...?

I was an anaesthetist in Freetown.

I wrote an article criticising

We fled before the police came,

Apparently, I was sentenced

Rachel, give him some aspirin.

We don't have any.

Is there anything I can do?

They keep aspirin in reception

Sure. I'll nick a couple of packets.

I also need bandages,

This happen a lot?

A lot of them, they connect

If they go there,

information passed.

Now, forgive me.

Thank you. I know it sounds...

It reminds me of my former life.

You must be really proud

I...

You like it here?

Your accent. It's not English.

Australia? Then we're all

Yeah. Yeah, we are.

REBECCA: What we need

by the Immigration Service.

It's been about five months

so I guess we were due one,

and given they were able

that should hopefully buy us

What I do want to talk about

Yeah, I just wanted to know

Now that we've, what,

they won't bother us for a while?

Well, I think that's a slightly

They know there are people working

The fact that we are allowed

given those circumstances,

Enduring a raid now and then is...

Is a small price to pay if it...

If it allows us

for below the minimum wage.

to continue working here safely.

Next time,

I should just let Immigration

No, of course not.

We all have jobs to do...

Unless you're gonna pay more

these are the people

the fact it's casual work suits them

If we need anything else obvious

Yeah. They work 18-hour shifts

yet it's the hotel being exploited.

We feed these people.

But we have responsibilities,

so stop being so bloody naive!

Well, I guess that's me told.

Hi, Rachel. Pull up a chair.

Here you are, Rachel.

You literally have no windows.

What are you doing here?

I thought that was illegal.

No-one was told.

What if there was a fire?

What do you want?

..2005.

What about it?

A few weeks, we could deal with.

But six months? That's just rude.

So what happens now?

Well... you could go back

and apply for a new visa there,

You've concealed your status,

which means

That doesn't so much as put you

but put you in

you really don't want to be in.

I have a son here.

I can't leave him.

This is his home. This is my home.

Yeah, moot point, that.

Option two, marry.

The dad still on the scene?

Ah.

Anyone else... around?

Not really.

So where does that leave us?

Here's the thing.

and you are going to help me.

We won't take the piss.

You give me someone now

and we won't have to come back

I can't do that.

Sleep on it.

I got to take someone home

Doesn't have to be you.

DOOR BEEPS

Listen, I've only got 15 minutes.

I promised I'd help out

The thing is,

Oh. Why don't you tell me after?

Or better still, during.

I have to go back to Australia.

My visa's run out.

You're kidding?

No.

How come?

OK, the plan was, George, my ex,

by which time, my visa had expired.

For the first month or so,

and we'd get back together.

But it got later and later,

they'll send me back,

There must be something you can do.

I could get married, Charlie.

You and, erm, what's his name?

You're not seeing each other, right?

Yeah.

No, obviously not.

Can't you appeal or write a letter?

It'll be fine.

I just thought

Oh, sorry.

Come on in. I was just...

Shit. What happened to your face?

The vacuum pipe, it was stuck.

Babe, you need to get some powder

OK, prepare to be dazzled.

MAID LAUGHS

WOLF WHISTLE

# Fools come and go

# Princess of mine. #

It's great to see you again.

Thanks, Gino.

That's a nice tie.

Have you lost weight?

I like your mouth.

Whoa!

OK, that's...

We may just have to pull back

Yeah, I'm confused. Do you actually

I thought you said compliments

Compliments, yes, but you're getting

Though, to be fair, I have got quite

Let's just keep it to things

A good-looking female cousin.

You can flirt. You can be twinkly.

How much of a big tipper

Last time he here, he give me £100.

Jesus! You go, girl.

Is there a walk as well?

Show them the walk.

What?

Is terrible, isn't it?

No.

No, no, it's great.

And me.

My God.

What?

That's the guy.

The woman who asked me to send that

So who's the woman?

How cheap.

Yeah. You think he'd at least

No, I mean the wife.

I bet you anything that the collar

Hi. We have a room booked. Fuller.

Mr Fuller. And have you stayed

Once or twice.

Right, then. All your information

Yes, excellent. I just need to swipe

Er, sorry, babe, could you, er...

It's just the guy that does

BEEP

That's excellent.

Is there a problem?

Oh. Actually, I'm ever so sorry,

but it looks like the suite

There was a leak in the room

What? You're joking.

However, I've got another room

It's very nice.

Does it have a view?

Sorry, darling.

There you go.

What's this?

But you normally just leave these

That's so impersonal,

It's just my way of saying,

thank you for all the hard work

Your ill-gotten gains.

Your face! Relax.

More wrinkles.

Darren who?

He works in the kitchens.

All I know is the guy's leaving

and they've asked everyone

HE GRUMBLES

Yeah.

Jesus!

Rachel, what happened?

It is fine.

Please, come into my office.

I've spoken

and the head of security.

As you wish.

But Rachel stays.

I've seen what you do to her, Adam.

You say goodbye with me there

I shall take her with me.

Please. Do not interfere

When someone does that

Do you know what they do

Their children, their daughters?

I can imagine.

I was a fool.

You are so keen

and immerse them

The way the men

This is what I risked our lives

So that's how you protect...?

I was a doctor,

Can you even begin to understand

You can't take that out

She is all I have left!

We will not be separated.

If you want her, then I will stay.

Well, if you can't help me, perhaps

Problem, sir?

Mr Fuller

You're a very popular guest.

They were all misdirected

Ah, hang on a minute.

Yeah, we have had

I think it's redirecting the calls

And I've just had a prostitute

Well, she would have to let you know

I didn't order her, you idiot.

What I did order

from Room Service

And it's still not arrived?

HE SIGHS

Is this anything to do with you?

Me, sir?

Room Service

I would have to have gone down there

and told them

I'll tell you what, why don't

and get it for you?

Where are you going?

He checked in about 3:00.

How do I look?

Fabulous.

Mr Linden, so good to see you.

Oh. So, Mr Linden,

Sex on the beach,

HE LAUGHS

A vodka tonic would be great.

Your champagne, sir.

Five hours, that took.

I hope you're not expecting a tip.

I'll live.

Sorry?

What was that?

I've had enough of this.

Mrs Sykes came by yesterday.

Her husband found a minibar receipt

She was worried your relationship

and so she asked us to send an email

to give you both a chance

Is that was this is all about?

Christ, what are you?

Don't get me wrong, sir. Once you're

I wouldn't care

with Topol and Arthur C Clarke,

but what I do object to

I didn't mislead anyone.

So, Liz Sykes knows about this one?

Look... Liz has always had

of our relationship than I have.

She's certainly got

Don't lecture me,

You're staff, OK?

and remember that you are here

There's a food chain,

These petty little revenges,

..cos they're all you can do.

So bring it on, little man.

'Hello.'

'It's Charlie Edwards

How's it going? How much

He's playing some merry game.

OK, so now you pull back a little

Yeah, maybe. Or maybe I give him

Hmm, yeah. A bit slutty.

Thank you.

So, how's your boyfriend?

Oh, sorry to hear that.

I want to, er, sleep around.

That's very honest of you.

Oh, I dropped my cloth.

I must clean this floor.

Gino, this is Jane, my wife.

Wife?

Did you got here OK?

Another vodka tonic, please.

He's married.

I can't believe I got it wrong.

You all seem gay.

Don't worry, Gino.

Your payslip.

Normally, don't you put these

God, why is everyone so...

No. Thanks.

Listen, Jackie...

..I'm sorry about...

In the meeting yesterday, I'm sorry

You care about them,

I can't always do that.

And so they need someone like you.

Right. Good. I'll see you later.

I'll do it now.

A very good evening.

A couple more visits and we'll be

It's OK.

Of course, Mr Boyack.

JACKIE: Move, come on!

Let's go!

Jackie!

Come on! Let's go!

Please. Come on!

Move it! Come on!

Hurry!

Wait. Where is my father?

Let me in! It's Adam.

Let me in!

Rachel! Open the door!

HE KNOCKS

Jackie, let him in. Jackie, please.

ADAM: No! No!

John Boyack, Immigration Service.

that you are working here illegally.

'No. No, please. Please, let me go!'

Let me go! Rachel!

'Rachel!'

Looks like you've got

Just him. That was the deal.

Catch you later!

How do you sleep at night?

Like a baby.

They've gone.

RACHEL SOBBING

You don't know what he was like.

Rachel, tell them, please.

Rachel, what he was doing to you

Look at your face.

Rachel, please...

Everything all right there,

Kool And The Gang.

Can I ask you something?

About marriage as a principle.

Marriage as a principle? Blimey.

You're happy? You'd recommend it?

Well, I'll tell you

It means a lack of uncertainty.

That's a good thing, isn't it?

Some people like uncertainty.

Cheers, Tone.

It's interesting that you didn't

I mean, my marriage

but it's probably one of the best

You must have had a pretty good idea

Meaning?

Listen, anything weird

Weird? Like what?

Doesn't matter. Mrs Sykes,

What's going on?

I'm so sorry. I didn't really know

Liz.

Who are you?

Who are YOU?

OK, look. This is...

You said you were seeing

of Guys And Dolls.

Two nights ago, he was here.

What's she talking about, John?

It's actually quite a funny story...

Wait a minute. Liz?

Not clingy Liz from work

What?

You said she was morbidly obese.

Ladies, if you want to fight,

Yes, now we all need to calm...

Ugh!

Ooh!

I'm sorry.

You've just saved me

Liz! What's going on?

Home.

Liz...

Liz!

Never mind, sir.

Have a mint.

Charlie. My office. Now.

You're fired.

OK, I know that I shouldn't

It's not because of that.

actually turned out to be...

Why, then?

There's an overpayment of £1,000.

Did you think

What is this? Some kind of test?

And why would you need testing,

I got an 18-month sentence...

I had my own business,

First year, 50 grand profit.

Second year, nothing.

£20,000 loss in the third year.

I borrowed everything I could,

tried to... turn things around,

So I set up a couple of accounts

..borrowed what I needed.

The plan was always to pay it back.

One good deal

OK. I've heard enough.

This wasn't a question

This wasn't omission, Charlie.

Have I done anything since?

I'm asking you. Have I done

Don't you dare take

You work in an industry

A previous conviction for fraud

I've done my sentence.

I'm not a risk any more.

be the judge of that.

How do I know you're straight?

How do I know

Being in prison...

..it's not like Porridge.

Nothing in the world

You still lied to me, Charlie.

Why should I give you

Cos you had one.

We are talking about

My personal life

People screw up.

But that doesn't make them bad.

That makes 'em... human.

You're on your last life.

Thank you.

The other option.

The other option to keep you here.

If that's what it takes.

If it's our last resort,

Let's get married.

Sorry. If there's any consolation,

that really did sound better

It's fine.

It is?

What is?

I explained the situation

Really?

but they've given me another

And what's gonna happen, then?

..well, I'll cross that bridge

Right.

That's great, then.

But, hey, thanks and everything.

You're my mate.

Sorry. Carry on.

Nice touch (!)

CHARLIE: 'A hotel
