M = Mel H = Howard E = Eve

M: Mum said we mustn't forget to get something for the bridesmaids.

H: It's on my list.

M: And she asked, `Have you called the video man?'

H: Yeah, yeah. I spoke to him last night. Raring to go.

M: And, er, don't forget the ring.

H: I'm picking it up on my way to work.

M: So this is it.

Big week.

H: Yeah.

M: Nervous?

H: I'm terrified. What about you?

M: Oh God! Why didn't we just get married on a beach somewhere, just the two of us!

H: Hey. Cause your family want you to have the most wonderful day of your life.

E: Oh, morning Howard!

H: Morning! Good weekend?

E: Yes. I made 22 jars of greengage jam. I left one on your desk.

H: Oh! Thank you.

E: Oh, and Mel called, asked if you've got the ring.

H: Just picked it up from the jewellers.

E: Could you call her?

H: Absolutely.

Was there something else?

E: I just wondered if I could have a little look at it.

H: Oh! Here. Help yourself.

E: Oh. It's lovely!

H: It's been in Mel's family for 150 years. They have this rather charming tradition where they pass it down from generation to generation. Eve? What is it?

E: Oh, I'm sorry. I always get like this about weddings.

H: Oh, don't cry.

E: I always wanted a fairytale wedding of my own.

H: Well, there's still time.

E: Do you really think so?

H: Yes!

E: I don't think so.

H: Just you believe it. One day you'll have a ring just like this on your finger.

E: Oh, in my dreams.

H: Try it on. See what it feels like.

E: Oh I can't do that! It's bad luck.

H: Come on.

E: Oh, it's lovely.

H: Hi Mel! I was just about to call you. Yeah. I picked it up on my way in. He's reduced it by 3mm so it should fit pretty snugly now. What are you doing?

E: I can't get it off.

H: No! No! You're gonna be really pleased with it.

Don't mess about, Eve.

E: No really. It's stuck!

H: Yeah, they've done a superb job.

Well, get it off!

E: I'm trying!

H: I know, I know. I can't wait to show it to your grandmother tonight.

Eve! I'm getting married in five days' time. When the vicar asks me to put the ring on my fiancée's finger it would be very nice if my secretary was not attached!

E: Oh!

H: No, nothing's wrong. Um, look I've gotta dash so I'll see you later.

E: Oh-oh ...

H: Come on! Get pulling!

E: I'll er ... get a plumber.
