351
But I went before I left home.

352
Trust me on this one.

353
[g]asps] Oh.

354
Not g]ood.

355
[thinks]
All right, tiny make-up mistake,

356
but I always have wit and conversation
to fall back on.

357
Thank you.

358
- Bridg]et.
- Hello.

359
Derek, Horatio, Camilla.

360
- Horatio?
- Yes, Horatio.

361
Horatio was just saying]
he's totally ag]ainst charitable g]iving].

362
[laug]hs]

363
- What?
- Well, obviously you don't mean it.

364
Absolutely. Do you think it's helpful
to g]ive a beg]g]ar fifty pence?

365
- Maybe he's just hung]ry.
- Don't be so naive¹.

366
The people you see outside the tube
every day are there by choice.

367
- End of story.
- Oh, no, it's not.

368
Some people
have terrible personal problems,

369
and other people mig]ht have lost their
family in some trag]ic ferry disaster.

370
And some people are just plain hopeless.

371
Honestly, this is the sort of rubbish
you'd expect from fat, balding]

372
Tory, Home Counties,
upper-middle-class twits.

373
[music stops]

374
- [chatter resumes]
- [laug]hs uneasily]

375
[violins, chatter]

376
[man] Yeah, very g]ood.
Tested my resolve.

377
How did I do?

378
You seem to have made
quite an impression.

379
I've put you next to Giles Benwick.

380
- Oh, I'm not sitting] next to you?
- No. He's terribly nice,

381
but his wife's just run off
with one of the partners.

382
He probably won't mention it,
but you should know.

383
I always knew she was out of my leag]ue.

384
You see, there's the hig]h-fliers,
like Annabel and Mark Darcy

385
and there's the g]org]eous g]irls,
like Rebecca there

386
and there's the rest of us.

387
Like you and me, you mean?

388
Absolutely.

389
I mean, look at the state of us.

390
You and me stumbled into the VlP room
by mistake

391
and it's only a matter of moments
before they show us the door.

392
[pounding]]

393
My lords, ladies and g]entlemen,
let the quiz beg]in.

394
[laug]hs] Oh, g]oody. I love quizzes.

395
All those years of playing]
Trivial Pursuits are about to pay off.

396
Now I want to see your hands
poised over those bells. Ready?

397
Here we g]o. What are something]
called "customary freeholds"?

398
- [bell]
- [man] Superior copyhold.

399
[speaker] Yes.

400
What is the correct g]race
used in the lnner Temple
