The White Elephant, Episode 15, Sad"

Oh… you’ve got a face like a wet weekend . Keep it down will you, I’m trying to cook here.

Ceilia, it’s Peter - he’s feeling blue , sort him out will you?

Oh Peter, you seem down in the dumps .

Yes, it’s Edith… She’s dead.

Who’s Edith?

I’m not sure… but I think it’s his mother.

Sorry old chap. That’s terrible news. I understand why you’re so downhearted . Were you close to Edith?

Yes. I’d talk to her every day and watch her go round and round. She was a great swimmer.

Oh. Don’t cry your eyes out . Worse things happen at sea . Shall I get you a glass of wine?

This must be a very upsetting time for you. Would you like some time off?

What’s going on? Is Peter ok?

It’s Peter - his mother’s died. He’s beside himself with grief . I’ve given him a glass of wine.

Edith! Edith!

Edith? Did he just say Edith?

Yes.

Edith is the name of his pet goldfish. Peter, has your goldfish died?

Yes.

Great! You’ve got a dead fish, I could use it in my fish pie.

Gordon!
