Listen, Phil, I was a journalist, OK?

Now, if you don't respond you create a vacuum

that sucks in speculation

and then you can't respond - you get sucked fucking inside out.

Look, Tickle wasn't the Queen of people's hearts.

He was a twat in a tent. Tick-EL! He was called Tick-EL!

We drove a man to his death. We are responsible for this.

Glenn, please, shush.

Do you think we could just pretend to behave like compassionate professionals in control,

just for once? Yeah, OK, er...

Look, er, whatever the fallout from today, megaphone Mary,

you brought her in, she's your problem.

Right, fuck. Adam, we need to.

Could be... Hang on they're coming back. I'll ring you back.

Great stuff, Tara, we're going to go ahead with the bank.

Yep, meeting's over. Don't you need to talk to the Treasury?

Done that. OK, well, let's talk details.

When it comes to interest rates, there's still quite a lot... Hey, don't talk us out of it.

You don't want to do that. So, is this the green light?

Uh-huh, yep, £2 billion.

Oh, my God! Oh! Crikey. Ohh! That's great.

Oh, right, OK! Oh, my God. Great, great, terrific.

We'll be in touch. Thank you. Lovely to meet you. Great.

What have we just green-lit?

Well, we are starting a community bank with £2 billion.

Right, is that the £2 billion we keep in the biscuit tin?

This is just great, this is just fucking great.

Oh... I hang around this moral abattoir to do something exactly like this and you shut me out.

So I'm spending my bank holiday founding a bank?

I thought the point about bank holidays is that they're supposed to be shut.

You know, when we see something we like we just buy it,

that's the way we work round here.

I hope the Tickel situation is all OK.

Well, it'll be fine. Thank you. Great. Lovely to meet you. See you soon.

Right.

Right, I'm in fucking charge and I am going Nordic drama.
