Dancers, you mean...

Look, seven o'clock, eight, nine, ten o'clock!
Wait a minute! It's seven o'clock!
That's just three hours!
What am I going to wear?
What are you going to wear?
But Nick, what about Bridget and Annie?
Aha!
It's not a problem!
Ah- ha- ha! Yes!
Nadia.
Oh, my plant!
What's the problem?
This is the problem!
Hector!
Cuddles and Bubbles...

So, Nick, what should I say?

Good, good.
Well, you can pay for these, then!
If you please!
Your faces!

Millionaires, very funny!
With fast cars!
Good trick, eh?
But that is my car!
You smell so sweet!
And you do have beautiful eyes!
Or is it ears?

Quick! Hide, Hector! Erm, er...
In the bedroom!

Tell me.
What is a taxidermist?
Oh!
Next time in Extra...
Hector wants to get a job.
Bridget and Annie have a surprise.
And guess who's coming to dinner.
And guess who's coming to dinner.
And guess who's coming to dinner.episode IV
This is the story of two girls
who share a flat in London.
They have a visitor from Argentina who speaks only a little English.
What the girls don't know, but Nick does, is that Hector is very, very rich.
Does Hector like Bridget?
Does Bridget like Hector?
And who does Nick like?
Stand by for Extra.
Job...stuntman.
Age.... ?
No. , more mature.
Age....
- Where's the fire?
- It's the smoke detector.
I know that! Where's the broom?
Oh, good, it's stopped.
I think this was the problem.
Anyone for very hard- boiled eggs?
- Nick.
- Eh?
- Are they your eggs?
- Eh?
I thought so!
What on earth are you doing? Are you crazy?
Ah. Are my eggs ready?
Oh... Your eggs, Hector.
Hector's eggs, Bridget.
Is he crazy?
Hector...the eggs are, erm, ruined.
Perhaps some cornflakes instead?
Thank you, Bridget.
Hm. Perhaps some cornflakes instead?
What are you doing on our computer anyway?
Nothing.
Let's just say, girls, one day you will say,
'Brad Pitt... Urgh! Pah!
'Johnny Depp... Urgh! Pah!
'Nick from next door... Vroom- vroom- vroom!
''The coolest stuntman in the world.''
Oh, you a stuntman!
Yep. I got the job on the Internet.
Well, nearly. I'm waiting for confirmation.
Oh, how exciting!
The coolest stuntman in the world.
On a moped, right?
On a Harley- Davidson, actually.
Films! Those stars! That money!
Oh! Oh!
Have you seen Carina's dress in the magazine?
I'd love to have a dress like that.
Mm, me too.
It would really suit me.
- How much is it?
- Oh, let's see. Erm...
How much?
Oh, I'm a student. It's too expensive for me.
I've got a job and it's too expensive for me.
We need more money.
Money?
Bridget, Annie, I have something to tell you.
Hector, don't. It's a secret.
''The Romero family,
one of the richest families in Argentina.''
Keep it a secret. Shh. Eh?
Shh.
What's a secret?
You have been very kind.
Yes, Hector.
I'm sure Bridget and Annie
have a little money.
Shh, Nick.
So I want to...
I want to give you some money.
Yes?
So, I am going...
to look for a job.
Oh... That's a great idea, Hector.
Great!
Yeah, we can look for a job on the Internet,
can't we?
- OK, here we are. Job vacancies.
- Well, let's see.
Oh. Well, there's a job in a launderette.
Hector!
No.
And there's a job as a gardener.
My plant!
No.
Erm, here's a job as a cook.
No.
Wait a minute. Look at this.
A waiter!
What a great idea!
Yes! Ooh, I love good- looking waiters!
Did you say good- looking? Here I am.
What about Hector as a waiter?
A waiter?
Yeah. You know.
Oh, but I don't know how.
Oh, don't worry. I will teach you.
Hello.
Howard!
How are you?
(Laughs) Oh, thank you, Howard.
Me? Dinner tonight?
Seven o'clock at the Singing Parrot Cafe.
OK, Howard.
Bye, Howard.
That was Howard.
No!
He's invited me to dinner tonight because he wants to...
talk to me about a new job!
Who is Howard?
Bridget's boss.
He is so rich, he's so clever
and he wants to see me!
He might offer me a promotion.
What shall I wear?
I have nothing to wear!
No! Wrong!
Huh!
So last season.
Bet Howard can't ride a motorbike.
Nope.
I hope he does give Bridget promotion...
Although I have heard Howard has a nickname.
(Bridget) What was I thinking?
What?
The Octopus.
The Octopus?
Oh, The Octopus!
Is he meeting her alone?
Yes.
No, no!
- Bridget needs help.
- We must stop her.
I have an idea.
Why don't you eat here?
No!
Yes, then we can both talk to your boss
about your new job.
Here?
No. No way.
I could cook for you.
Huh! Definitely not, no.
And I could be your waiter.
N...
I want to be your waiter.
Yeah, OK, then, but be serious.
Don't worry,
we will help you get your promotion.
Leave it to us.
I am going...
to look for a job.
My plant!
Hm.
A waiter?
Yeah. You know.
OK, Hector, you are the waiter so you must set the table.
Yes, I have set the table but there is one problem.
A problem?
The table is too small.
- The table is too small?
- Yes. Look.
Hector, this is set for courses.
Dinner at home is always like this.
Well, yes! You are a million...
You are a millionaire.
This is just a little dinner for Bridget's boss.
- OK?
- OK.
OK. I am the customer.
Where would you like to sit?
Hm.
Here.
Oh, I... Erm...
The bill.
Not yet. The menu first.
Oh, sorry. Erm... The menu.
Ah.
Forget the menu. What have you got today?
- To eat?
- To eat.
Today, as dish of the day, I have a delicious hot cat.
- A hot cat?
- Mm- hm.
That's a hot dog.
Ah! Hot cat, hot dog!
Cat...hot...dog...
Oh, no!
Oh, how's it going?
Great! Nick is a good teacher.
- Let's see.
- Uh- uh. Hector's Cafe is now closed.
Oh!
I'll get it.
Delivery, Miss Evans and Miss Taylor.
Thank you.
Oh! Bridget, look!
''For lovely Annie from H.''
''For beautiful Bridget from H.''
- Who's H?
- Oh, it must be Howard!
Ooh, what is it?
Oh, Bridget!
Look, it's Carina's dress!
But how did he guess?
Oh, he's a clever man!
Anyway, it's not Carina's dress now,
it's Bridget's dress!
Oh, thank you, Howard!
Oh, Bridget, isn't your boss kind?
But why did he buy me one?
Oh, I've told him all about you.
Me? Dinner tonight?
He's so clever and he wants to see me!
Oh, thank you, Howard.
- The Octopus!
- Ugh!
We will help you get your promotion.
Wow!
OK, Nick?
Yeah. Hot. The soup, hot.
Uh- uh- uh- uh- uh. The soup is hot.
Thank you, Hector.
He's here.
- Good evening, Howard.
- Ah, Bridget, my princess!
Please come in.
Bridget, you look divine.
Oh, this must be Annie.
Are you sisters? Such beauty!
The dresses are exquisite.
Oh...
Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Don't thank me. It's a privilege.
Oh, and this, of course, is Nick.
Hi.
And this is Hector. He's from Argentina.
- Hello.
- Argentina?
- Do you have a cow?
- Two million.
- What?
- My parents own two million cows.
Er, yes, thank you, Hector.
- Hector's English is a little...
- Weird.
Never mind, Hector.
- So, Bridget...
- Ooh!
What a beautiful apartment for a beautiful lady.
Dinner is served.
Hector, go on.
Today we have sick pea soup.
Mm. Sick pea soup. My favourite!
Chickpea. Chickpea.
Er...chickpea soup.
This guy is great.
Where did you find him?
Sick pea soup!
Mind you, it does look like...bleurgh!
Sorry, Nick.
Main course. Teeth casserole.
Teeth casserole?
Beef. Beef.
Sorry. Beef casserole.
I bet the beef is as hard as teeth.
A dinner with bite!
Oh! Sorry, Nick.
So, Bridget, you would like a better job?
Well, Howard, I...
Are you willing to work harder, huh?
Agh!
You stupid idiot!
Sorry, er...
And, Bridget, with your good looks...
What a creep.
Hey! It's cold!
Hector! I want hot coffee.
He wants hot coffee.
Then he will have hot coffee.
So, by the age of
I had people working for me.
Fascinating.
My father said,
''If you want more money, you must work hard.''
Hey! You have poisoned me!
You fool! You stupid boy!
Stupid?
Don't you dare
talk to my friend Hector like that!
Oh, what is he?
Is your boyfriend or something?
He is...
a kind and clever and lovely man, which is something that you will never, ever be.
So you can keep your job, you creep!
- And we'll send you back the dresses.
- What dresses?
Oh, these dresses,
the ones you bought Annie and me.
I did not buy those dresses.
I would not spend money on you! Ha!
Goodbye, Howard.
You've lost your job.
Well, too late. I quit!
Howard said he did not buy the dresses.
So who did?
If H isn't for Howard...
Then H is for Hector!
You? But why did you buy the dresses?
To say thank you.
But they're so expensive.
Where did you get the money?
I...found it.
Well, these expensive dresses
must go back to the shop.
Yes, they must.
But not until tomorrow.
That's right! Let's go clubbing!
Come on, Nick, Hector!
See you later, boys!
Hector, you are a true, true friend.
Money is not everything.
So, what did you buy me?
What do you think?
I love you. I love you.
Hm. One moment.
You didn't buy me a bike.
You didn't buy me a bike.
You didn't buy me a bike.
OK?
Thanks, Hector. It's really, really...
It's OK, Nick.
Hop on. I'll give you a lift.
Hey...
So do you still want to be a waiter?
No, I want to be like you, Nick. A stuntman!
Aaagh!
Next time in Extra...
Nick gets a job on TV
Annie loves watching TV
And why does Hector want to learn to cook?

This is the story of Bridget and Annie,
who share a flat in London, and the boys next door,
Nick and his friend Hector from Argentina.
The girls like Hector because he is...pure.
And Nick likes Hector because he is rich.
And Hector likes Nick
because he is one crazy guy.
Stand by for Extra.
But I can't live without you.
I love you.
I love you too, but it's for the best.
It's finished.
Oh! Oh, darling, no. I'll die without you.
Ohh. She can't!
No, she can't. He's too good- looking.
And her husband is so awful.
I'm sorry. I'm more sorry than you are.
It's your turn.
Hello.
A message for who? Rock Thrust?
Erm, I'm sorry,
but I think you have the wrong number.
That's OK. Bye.
Well, who was that?
Someone wanted Rock Thrust.
Rock Thrust? What a stupid name.
I know. Who would have a silly name like that?
Go, go, go, go, go!
Go!
It's a raid!
Don't move. Legs in the air.
Hands. Not legs. Hands in the air.
OK.
Hands in the air.
Hello, Nick. Hello, Hector.
- How did you know it was us?
- Huh?
Oh, lucky guess.
Great. It's like Piccadilly Circus here
on a Friday night.
Uh?
This apartment is very busy.
Crazy phone calls, crazy names and now the FBI!
So, Bridget darling, any messages for me?
What do you mean, messages?
Who do you think I am? Your secretary?
This is not your apartment. You do not live here.
I never have any privacy.
But they cut off my telephone.
That's not my problem.
You should pay your bills.
Sorry, Bridget.
And, Hector, you live with Nick now.
Please knock on the door.
Now, I want to be alone.
Well, that went well. What's wrong with her?
- Nick, what day is it?
- Erm, Wednesday.
- And what time is it?
- I know. Half past six.
- So...
- So...
So what's on television?
Oh, Love's True Dream.
Love's True Dream. What is that?
Oh, Alberto, Alberto!
I love you, I love you!
And I love you too, Penelope.
- Bridget's favourite programme.
- Yeah, and mine.
Oh, really, Annie? Why?
Because it's about the simple love of a boy from Argentina and a girl from England.
Uh?
The simple love of a boy from Argentina
and a girl from England.
Oh.
Nice.
Oh, Hector! I love this advert.
What is it?
It's for chocolate mousse. Shh.
Chocolate so smooth
it will melt a beautiful lady's heart.
Chocolate mousse,
the chocolate dessert for lovers.
Mmm, I love chocolate mousse.
Hey! This advert's good too.
# Ooh! Popcorn in the microwave
# Popcorn in just seconds
# Popcorn in your tummy
# They're Poptastic #
Ha! And do you like popcorn, Annie?
Oh, yeah, especially Poptastic popcorn.
Well, we don't have Poptastic popcorn in Argentina, but we make great popcorn.
- Yeah?
- Yes. I'll make it in the frying pan.
Oh, yes! Yes, great!
I've got the part! I've got the part!
Wow, man! That is great! Hey!
What is it?
Let's just say that my face will be on your television
every night at six o'clock in front of a huge audience.
Oh- ho! Ladies and gentleman, a star is born!
Oh, Nick, that's fantastic!
Ha- ha! This is it, Nick.
Today, London, tomorrow, Hollywood.
I'd just like to thank my parents,
my brothers, my sisters...
my dog, his vet...
and of course my adorable girlfriend Bridget.
Huh! I don't think so.
Anyway, what's going on?
Oh, it's wonderful news, Bridget.
Nick is going to be on television.
Well, tell us, Nick. What is it?
Well, it's on every night.
It'll be hot.
Sometimes it'll be stormy.
So will you still love me when I'm a superstar?
Yes, Nick, and I'm going to help you
to be a great superstar.
Yes!
Lesson number one.
This is how all superstars make a big exit.
Goodbye, Nick. See you at the Oscars.
- Annie?
- Uh- huh?
I really think you're watching too many adverts.
What do you mean, too many adverts?
Well, remember Chunky Chunks?
Oh, Chunky Chunks...
Hello and welcome
to the Chunky Chunks challenge.
Nick, in front of you are two plates and all you have to do is tell me
which plate is Chunky Chunks -
A or B.
Ready? OK.
This is Plate A.
Good. And this is Plate B.
OK, Nick.
Which plate do you think was Chunky Chunks?
A or B?
Well, they both smelled great.
Correct! Well done!
Both plates were Chunky Chunks.
- By the way, Annie...
- Uh- huh?
What are Chunky Chunks?
Dog food, of course.
- Do you see what I mean?
- Oh, I think so.
What's that noise?
Oh, Annie's popcorn!
- My popcorn?
- Yes, I wanted to make popcorn just for you.
Oh, Hector, thank you. Oh, you are sweet.
I like popcorn too, Hector.
- Rock Thrust? What a stupid name!
- I know!
Go, go, go, go, go!
Popcorn in your tummy
They're Poptastic
Man, that is great!
Today, London, tomorrow, Hollywood.
Ah. I co- starred with Russell Crowe in this one.
You, in Gladiator?
Wow, Nick, I didn't realise. What were you?
The centurion.
Which centurion?
Er... Ah! Here it is.
There, that's me, on the ground.
Huh! A dead centurion.
Yeah, good, eh?
I had some words, but they were cut.
- What did you say?
- Erm...
Hey, but now I've got the whole script
just for me on television every night.
Nick, tell me.
- What is it?
- It's my show.
When I'm a star, I will not forget you, my friend.
..at pm today
when I'll show you how to make a delicious chocolate mousse, a dessert for lovers.
You'll need chocolate, eggs and butter.
And don't forget the way to a heart
is through the stomach.
The way to the heart is through the stomach.
What does that mean?
It means if you want a girlfriend, cook for her.
I want to learn how to cook.
Anyway, what do you mean
by I watch too many adverts?
Well, remember when you wanted us
to change our washing powder?
Oh- ho! Hello there.
As a mother,
I must fight difficult stains every day.
Tomato ketchup.
Chocolate...ooh!
Gravy.
And...egg.
But help is here.
I will wash one shirt in ordinary washing powder and the other in new Zap!
So, the shirt
washed in normal washing powder is...
Oh! Still dirty.
But the shirt washed in new Zap! is...
Oh.
Annie, have you seen my red T- shirt anywhere?
Oops!
See what I mean?
- Oh, hello, Bridget.
- Hello, Hector.
Oh, hi, Annie.
Oh, thank you. Yes, I know.
Do you know where Nick is?
- No, we've just arrived.
- I'm a great actor.
Erm, I think I know where Nick is.
(Nick) ..love to do the part, but I'm too busy.
No, it's not the money.
I don't need million quid.
Look, talk to my agent, Bridget, hm?
I have an idea.
Oh. So Robert De Niro said yes already?
Hm? Well...
- Hello.
- Hello?
- Nick Jessop?
- Yeah.
I have an executive from Warner Brothers
on the line for you.
Right.
Hello, Nick.
You are very big in England.
What are you working on now?
Hi. Well, it's something
that all of England watches.
It's the, erm...
Ha- ha- ha- ha- ha.
You can laugh,
but tomorrow night at six o'clock you will see that Nick from next door
has star quality and then Spielberg will call.
Now, excuse me, I must learn my line.
Hello and welcome
to the Chunky Chunks challenge.
New Zap!
Chocolate mousse,
the chocolate dessert for lovers.
Hello, all you gorgeous chefs. Mwah.
And welcome to Charlotte's Kitchen.
Today...mmm...
chocolate mousse, a dessert for lovers.
- First, take some chocolate.
- Chocolate.
And melt it over hot water.
Melt?
Oh! Over hot water.
Now, my darlings, you must
separate the eggs into two bowls.
Separate the eggs?
Separate the yolk from the white.
Oh, the yolk from...
- Hector?
- Ah, hello, Annie.
Mix the yolk and the chocolate.
Add the butter.
And now for the fun - whisking!
I love whisking. Don't you?
- Oh, whisking?
- Ah! You need Annie's magic whisk.
Yes, please.
Nearly finished, my darlings.
Finally, add the whites to the chocolate and put it in the fridge.
And in minutes, this delicious chocolate mousse
will be ready for your lover to taste - mm!
And put it in the fridge.
Why, Hector, who's the lucky lady?
I think I know!
Chocolate mousse, my favourite dessert.
Nick! What time is it?
- Six o'clock.
- Quick! Change channels!
It's six o'clock
and time for the weather with Rock Thrust!
With Rock Thrust.
Oh, me. I'm ready.
- The weather?
- Rock Thrust?
Nick!
Hi! I'm Rock Thrust.
- Get on with it.
- Huh.
And here is the weather. Big smile.
And here is the weather.
In the south, it will be hot.
Sun, sun.
Oh, sorry. Hot.
So put on your beach clothes.
And in the west, it'll be windy.
And in the east, it will rain,
so don't forget your, um...
..brella.
And there could be some...
Oh, no. Not lightning.
And that's the weather with me, Rock Thrust.
Ah, come in and sit down.
Close your eyes.
Now, are you ready for a taste of paradise?
Chocolate so smooth it will melt a beautiful lady's heart.
Ready?
Mmm!
Chocolate mousse,
the chocolate dessert for lovers.
Oh, Hector, that was so much fun!
I love doing adverts,
especially with your delicious chocolate mousse.
Oh, I'm glad you like it.
Well, hello! It's Rock Thrust.
Would you like your messages, Mr Thrust?
As your agent, I take ten per cent.
Oh, poor Nick. You must be very tired now.
Yeah, I am.
Working in television must be exhausting.
Yes, because I had to run
all the way from the studio.
Run? Why?
Because I was chased.
Next time in Extra...
Bridget wins the lottery.
Nick finds love at the traffic lights.
And why does Hector become a dustman?
And why does Hector become a dustman?
