"Last" episode of VoD tonight
At least it is the last to be broadcast here (might be one
special episode after it.) Maybe it helps to know the
characters (especially Alice), but to remind those of
you who do.
Last episode - Vicar's wedding:
The council comes into the vicarage to talk to Geraldine (the Vicar):
Hugo: Anyway, the thing is, uh, we've been thinking for weeks what the village
as a whole could give you as a wedding present.
Geraldine: Oh! It's not a mass suicide is it?
Hugo: No.
Geraldine: Shame.
Hugo: Anyway, we finally made a decision and we just wanted to pass it by you
before we leap into action.
Geraldine: No, don't. I love surprises.
Hugo: Yeah, well, it's not as simple as that, because what we have decided to
give you for your wedding -- is your wedding.
Geraldine: Pardon?
Hugo: We're going to take the whole responsibility for your wedding completely
off your shoulders.
Geraldine: Holy Mother of God!
Alice: I told you she'd be pleased.
Hugo: You see, they say weddings are the most stressful time in anyone's life
so we're going to do the whole damn thing for you.
Geraldine: Hey, look, guys, it's a wonderful thought...
Hugo: Alice is doing the dress ... obviously.
Geraldine: Obviously.
Alice: Well, me and my mum. The psychiatric nurses like to keep her occupied.
Later, Alice is in the vicarage:
Alice: Right, time to discuss your dress.
Do you know, I can almost not breathe, the excitement of it.
Geraldine: Yeah, I'm also having a near death experience.
Alice: First, material for the dress.
Geraldine: Right.
Alice: Now what do you think of ............... pine.
(Alice holds a pine board)
Geraldine: Pine? For a wedding dress?
Alice: Very much in at the moment.
Geraldine: In where?
Alice: My mother's mind
Again, later, Alice comes in with two more ideas
Alice: Who apart from you is the most moral woman of the last one hundred years?
...
Alice: First is Mother Teresa. So I thought to demonstrate your goodness you
could wear this as you walk down the aisle.
Geraldine: A Mother Teresa face mask?
...
Geraldine: Well ... it's not the worst idea you've ever had, Alice.
That was your suggestion to stop burning coal and start burning pubic hair instead.
Alice: Well, it's easier to get at and we don't really need it.
