Quotes
-
Midwife : OK, darling. Baby's doing fine, I just want to see how you're doing, see how dilated you are, OK?
[she puts on a rubber glove]
Mark Corrigan : [voiceover] Hmm, stuck on the Medical Channel and there's no remote control.
[the Midwife slips her hand between Sophie's legs. Sophie winces. Mark and Jeremy look at each other awkwardly]
Jeremy Usborne : Maybe some... music?
Mark Corrigan : Yes. Yeah, m-maybe some music.
Sophie Chapman : [gasps] Uh-huh.
[Jeremy goes over to a small hi-fi and switches it on. Panpipe music plays]
Mark Corrigan : [voiceover] What a bastard. That's gonna drive us all totally bonkers.
Midwife : Yeah, you're doing great, you're fully dilated. Your baby's coming. There's no time for an epidural.
[Sophie groans. The midwife leaves]
Sophie Chapman : She put her whole hand in!
Mark Corrigan : Blimey.
Sophie Chapman : I didn't think she'd put her whole hand in!
Mark Corrigan : No, God.
Jeremy Usborne : Look, maybe I should go.
Mark Corrigan : [voiceover] Of course, brings the insufferable music, then goes. He's like the 1980s.
