:07:01
you haven't. have you really?
:07:03
it's such a silly play.
:07:04
oh, it's not the play,
:07:05
it's you. you're just... just great.
:07:08
I'm glad you liked me.
:07:09
liked you? I loved you.
:07:13
I won.
- what?
:07:15
well done.
:07:17
come on, Mr... uh...
:07:42
all an actress like Julia needs
:07:45
is a vehicle.
:07:46
it's the actors the public go to see,
:07:48
not the play.
:07:48
that's true in my case. I'd see
you in anything, miss Lambert.
:07:51
but you know what I'd
really like to find out?
:07:54
how did you start?
:07:55
how did you get to be where you are,
:07:56
owning a theatre, top of the tree?
:07:58
clean living and hard work. cigarette?
:07:59
we owe it all to a rude, foul-mouthed
brute called Jimmie Langton.
:08:03
we were in his repertory
company in Middlesbrough.
:08:04
he knew all there is to know
about theatre and acting.
:08:07
that's where I met Michael.
that's how we began.
:08:10
I was a rotten actor.
:08:12
yes, but you have presence.
:08:13
the audience always
gasps when you come on.
:08:16
it's his dazzling good looks, you see.
:08:19
gee, this is fascinating. fascinating.
:08:22
dreadfully jealous of him?
:08:23
you're very sweet, but
I know perfectly well
:08:25
that all I can play are
diplomats, lawyers and politicians.
:08:27
I'm more interested in
the business side. that's--
:08:30
yes, but you know as well as I do
:08:31
that we'd be nothing without Jimmie.
:08:33
I always lay a place
for him at the table.
:08:35
just in case he turns up.
:08:37
he's been dead for 15 years.
:08:38
yes, but you never know.
:08:41
he was a monster.
:08:44
uh, how do you spell your first name?
:08:48
t-o-m.
