1:19:05
Excuse me, sir.
There's a phone call for you.
1:19:07
- Not now.
- lt's Peter Norris. He said it's urgent.
1:19:10
Oh. Thank you.
1:19:12
Would you excuse me?
1:19:23
Peter?
1:19:25
l'm sorry to drag you away
from your dinner party.
1:19:29
l'm afraid l've got some rather bad news.
1:19:33
By the time the shit hit the proverbial fan
in London we'd escaped Singapore...
1:19:38
..to ponder the future
and consider my options.
1:19:41
lf l had any.
1:19:43
What's gonna happen, Nick?
1:19:46
They must have got my fax and
closed down all the positions on Friday.
1:19:50
The market seems to be holding up OK.
1:19:52
But you're definitely out of a job?
1:19:57
lt could have been a lot worse,
but l still lost them a ton of money.
1:20:03
l'm starving! Think they do burgers here?
1:20:05
(laughs) No! You're not having a burger.
1:20:07
- That tummy of yours is driving me nuts.
- Don't stress me, wench!
1:20:11
(laughs)
1:20:12
l'll work it off in the gym.
1:20:17
Better still...
1:20:22
(kissing)
1:20:25
- Stop it. People are watching.
- So? l don't care. Come here, girl.
1:20:34
Jesus Christ, Lisa!
1:20:37
- Barings has gone bust!
- What?!
1:20:41
The Chancellor of the Exchequer
is trying to calm fears...
1:20:44
..sparked by the failure of Barings Bank.
ln a statement to Parliament...
1:20:48
..he denied reports that the British
banking system is about to collapse.
1:20:52
According to him, Barings'
failure is a unique situation,...
1:20:55
..which he blames on the actions
of a rogue trader in Singapore.
1:20:59
Estimates of potential losses range from
800 million to over one billion pounds.
