HannahThere’s that boy you fancy.
Okay. Wouldn’t say anything. I’m just gonna play it cool.
Hey, Tina. What’s up?
Um, I’m going to a party tonight. Do you wanna come?
Yeah. Sure.
HannahNice one, Teen. That was really cool.

HannahThere’s that boy you fancy.
Okay. Wouldn’t say anything. I’m just gonna play it cool.
Hey, Tina. What’s up?
Um, I’m going to a party tonight. Do you wanna come?
Yeah. Sure.
HannahNice one, Teen. That was really cool.
Yay!
How are you doing, Paul?
Hi. I’m a friend of Tina’s. I uh… I brought some friends.
Party!
Let’s party!
HannahI don’t know whether that was such a good idea, Teen.
Ooh, be careful of the…
Hi. I’m a friend of Bradley’s. Bradley, I brought some friends. I hope you don’t mind.
Why does everyone have to keep saying that?
Oh, he fancied this bike, really?
(sighs) Look at the mess. This is bad. We’re dead.
Dead as doornails.
HannahGuys, we better tidy up.
HannahBefore five?
But what kind of music do you like at your funeral?
Oh my god! He is! (She faints)
You the house sitters?
They are!
Are?
What did you do to my house? I leave this place in your charge as a monument to taste discretion and power pelting. I come back after a few weeks and what do I find?
I said what do I find?
A scene of complete devastation?
Exactly!
HannahThis one isn’t broken?
My first wife gave me this vase. (smashing the vase on the ground) No wonder I never like this place. It was always far too tidy. I had forgotten what it was like to let my hair down. But you guys have reminded me that rock and roll still lives. You are the best house sitters ever. So, what are you waiting for? Let’s PARTY!
What, again?
You ready, Brad?
I am indeed, bro.
Okay. Let’s do it then, yeah?
Alright.
You’re moving closer so I can see your face.
(sighs annoyingly) Bradley!
Paul, no one wants to see your handwriting, alright? If we’re gonna make a doc soap, they wanna see a character. A star. A geezer, and luckily, I’m available.
Brad, just drop the card.
Okay. Excellent.
(He starts filming around closer to Hannah who is busy watching something on TV)
HannahYes? Can I help you?
Hannah Spearritt, famous singer and actress from the UK. What she lacks in inches, she makes up for her in talent. So, Hannah, tell us. How does it feel being complete nobody in the UK and completely unknown in the US?
HannahBog off, Paul.
Fair enough.
The name’s McIntosh. Bradley McIntosh. License to kill and to thrill the ladies.
Bradley, I’ll come back to you when I’m desperate.
So you say “He’s rich. He’s handsome and he’s a great kisser.” Rachel, I already don’t see what your problem is.
Well, I kind of may have sort of told him that I was a member of the British royal family.
Paul, we’re trying to have a private conversation here.
Just treat me like I’m not here.
That’d be easier when you’re gone.
Jo, who’s happy-go-lucky exterior masks a violent personality?
Go away.
Oh. Ooh! Oh, look. You think some people will be grateful to have a documentary made about them?
Paul, you’ve been making this documentary for the past 3 weeks. It was quite funny at first.
No. That’s just irritating.
I know, I know. But I’ve only got 400 hours of footage and most of that has Bradley in it.
Well, go film something else then.
Yeah. Jon’s in the bath. Go film in.
Cool.
Why do you think this guy killed you?
Okay, I’m off to Muscle Beach.
HannahOkay.
It’s the first day of my job down there.
HannahGo.
She was pushed!
I’m teaching a class called dance yourself fit.
HannahOkay.
(weeping)
Then later, I plan to be abducted by aliens, and dissected.
HannahGotcha.
You don’t care, do you? You don’t give a part that I’m the only one in this apartment with a proper job.
Let me get you something…
HannahI’m sorry, Tina. It’s just difficult to give a part about anything when Troy’s about to leave his wife and seven adorable baby daughters, and run off with his secretary, or possibly his mother.
(Off-screen) Paul, GET OUT NOW!
Honestly! Some people just don’t deserve to be in this business we call show. (sitting down next to Hannah) Eh?
I couldn’t eat another thing.
Oh, one more, Jo, and this time, could you just chew a bit more quizzically?
Careful! This is a highly sophisticated piece of equipment. I call it my steady Eddie for recording on telly.
And I call it a plank of wood, the camera set a tape to it.
So, Tina’s having lunch with Arnold Schwarzenegger.
HannahWith a guy she met down Muscle Beach. She said she was lovely and she’s gonna get the photos to prove it.
See, I think that’s all unnatural all the exercise.
Bradley, you think pushing a carpet sweep is unnatural.
Yeah, but it’s not gonna make you look any more attractive to look like you got dozens of ferrets crawling around and your skin. Does it, Han?
HannahNo! No, no. Of course not. We don’t fancy Muslim men, do we, Jo?
Oh, no.
HannahAye-aye, sexy!
Oh, my diddy!
HannahStrike a pose! How do you do?
Whoo!
And now we hear the mating cry of the single desperate female on heat.
Hi.
Hi there.
So, how was it?
HannahDid you get the photos developed?
No. He’s lovely. I think he’s the best looking bloke I’ve ever been on the date with.
It’s not exactly stiff competition, Tina. Your last one looked like the model for gargoyles.
Shut it. He’s blonde. He’s got blue eyes and the best teeth since Tom Cruise had his teeth fixed, and he kissed me.
Ooh!
Just a back on my lip but it was a passionate back, and he wants to see me again tonight.
Ooh!
Jo, can I have a sip of your water?
Ooh…! (Tina notices Bradley making the sound of it) Sorry, I wasn’t concentrating.
Extra-large, extra thick crust with everything on it.
With extra everything?
Uh-huh.
Thanks.
Enjoy your meal.
Cheers. Oh, and, (giving her a dollars) There you go. Ah.
So, I just told him that I wasn’t gonna be intimidated by him. You know, cos he’d forgive in 2 thugs and bullies then we’re society, and I warned him. I told him if he kept on pushing me, then there’d be consequences. So I just stood up to him and he walked away.
But not before he challenged Jon to a big arm wrestling contest tomorrow which Jon accepted.
That is so brave, or is it just stupid?
(holding the camera) Jon, man on the brink.
Yeah, of extinction.
No, but you didn’t really sell that stuff, did ya?
No, and tomorrow I’m a dead man.
No you’re not. You just need a little bit of training, you know.
Bradley, it takes months to train somebody.
It takes months to train a whole body. We just need to train your arm. You know, put it on some weights, put on special diet. Does the rest of me have to be present because…
That sounds really boring.
No, no, no, no, no. Th-This is it. I have finally found the subject of my movie. The story of one man facing insurmountable odds, facing injustice or I feel an Emmy coming on.
Well, get in the bathroom then, you hedge-pig.
It will be a moving and gripping documentary and a fitting posthumous tribute to Jon.
Oh, don’t say that. I think he’s really got a good shot.
Rachel, you’ve got more chance of arm wrestling that guy into submission than I have.
What are you trying to say?
Look, I’ve said I’m gonna be that so I will. I’ve got to show up on Muscle Beach at 5 o’clock tomorrow and ask for… What's his name?
Ryan.
Ryan?
Use your arm part. Use your arms. Get your back straight.
Jon’s getting really strong, you know. Last night, I saw him open the ketchup bottle all by himself.
Actually, I started that for him.
Oh.
Well, I really think he stands a chance, I mean I know Ryan’s big in everything but he’s stupid. No offense, Tina.
He’s not stupid. He’s lovely. If only hadn’t had that dumb argument with Jon and Jon hadn’t accepted the stupid challenge. Just doesn’t seem like him.
Hmm. He is a bit out of character. You’re right.
HannahIt’s their hormones. Guys are programmed to behave like that. I’ve read it in just 17. They get all insecure when they think another guy’s invading their own territory. They’re like big monkeys.
Monkeys?
HannahYeah. All snug in their tree until another monkey comes along then they get nervous for their bananas.
Their bananas.
HannahYeah. I mean that other big ol’ monkey probably already has bananas of his own, but that doesn’t stop them feeling threatened.
So I’m dating a big monkey.
HannahErm. Yeah. But a nice monkey. Your one’s the king of the swingers.
A jungle VIP.
HannahMhm.
Hey guys, can we remember who we’re rooting for in this contest?
That’s it, man. That’s… You’re out of breath.
What odds are they offering on Ryan?
HannahIt’s quite a crowd.
Yeah, look at them. Animals baying for blood turning up just cos they want to see a bit of pain and suffering. (to the woman) Amish! You’re in my seat.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Muscle Beach, and to the match, they’re already calling The Clash of the Titans.
After our match, be sure and join us on the beach for our winners’ protein drink party and you’re all invited. Now, without further ado, please welcome our sixth time Southern California armed wrestling champion, Ryan Sinclair!
Hannah(calling out loud to him)
Hi, Mr. Sinclair. I’m your director for today. I’m just gonna go around, take a few shots of making a short documentary about one man’s fight for truth and justice.
Cool. Can you get me from my right side? It’s…my better angle.
Okay. (He goes onto Ryan’s right side) Yeah! Getting a real Tom Cruise vibe from this side.
Yeah, a lot of people have said that.
And now, let’s, uh, welcome our contender the limey with the funny haircut, Jon. Somebody or other.
Go, Jon, GO!
Destroy him!
HannahGo on, sexy!
Defence, be seated.
Jon, this is gonna hurt me more than it hurts you.
I seriously doubt that. (He puts his hand on Ryan’s hand)
Let the battle commence!
(panting)
Hey, is he getting a close-up?
Maybe.
Well, if he gets one, I want one too. Get that camera back over with.
Yes, sir.
Hey, is it a big close-up?
It’s pretty big.
Get it closer. Come on! Get my face on that screen. Closer!
But…
Closer!
But!
Closer… (Paul hits his eye) Ow!
I can’t see through the viewfinder like this. It’s really small.
Yay! Yes! I won! Yes! Come one! (Girls come to Jon) Who wants a piece of me?!
I do.
You’ve had your chance. Yes!
(to them) Look at the state of this place! Someone’s gonna have to tidy it up.
HannahYeah, Paul.
Yeah, Bradley.
Yeah, Joanne.
I’m not doing it. I always do it.
Well, do you fancy a game of chess, Hannah?
HannahYeah, okay.
Yeah, we’re not until you’ve done those dishes.
HannahIt’s Paul’s turn!
No, it’s not. It’s YOUR turn!
HannahIt was my turn last week.
Well, look. Let’s have this game of chess and whoever loses has to do all the dishes.
HannahOkay. Deal. (He gives her a handshake) Ow!
I didn’t get a job.
Nor did I.
What’s up with him?
Must be his pose playing up again.
Guys, guess what? I think I just got a job.
What does the exotic dancer?
No. As a model.
Can you say that again, cos I could have just swore you said model.
I did.
You?
Yes.
You.
Yes.
You.
Yes, Bradley! Some of us can do more than just sing and dance. Some of us have hidden talents.
Must have very hidden.
Oh, don’t be nasty.
So who are you modelling for?
Well, I haven’t definitely got the job yet, but I met this woman from a catalogue for a big department store and she said she wants to see me this afternoon.
Oh, well done!
Thank you.
Well done.
Well, I think I better go and get ready for my job interview then.
Yeah, me too.
HannahWhat job are you going for?
Buddy’s Burger Bar.
I’m going for that one.
I saw it first.
No, you didn’t! You know I did.
Listen, Jo. I really need this job! I am broke!
Oh, what?! I ain’t!
Guys, calm down! I’m sure there’s more than one job there. You’ll be fine.
You had better have to be.
Wow.
Well, what do you think?
Mmm.
I’m trying to look as if I haven’t tried.
You might have to try a bit harder.
Do a pose.
Try and look a bit more relaxed.
Relaxed but… cheeky.
HannahNow go for happy yet quizzical.
Now, quizzical yet somehow yearning.
Playful yet… deep.
Sad but… cheerful.
Now try to look like a complete muffin.
THAT’S IT!
HannahExcellent!
You’re definitely getting better.
But, you know, every different style of clothing has a different style of pose.
Really?
Just take this and come back when you practice.
Oh, there we are. Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.
HannahHi, Joni.
Hi, Joni.
Hi, Joni.
Hi, Joni.
Wait till I tell all my friends, I know the S Club 7. A bunch of kids who lay around and don’t tidy up after themselves. Very impressive.
HannahWe are gonna tidy up.
We just need to decide whose turn it is.
Well, then what you guys need is a cleaning schedule.
I said that.
But we couldn’t decide whose turn it was to write the cleaning shed-yule.
Shall I tell you what one of the most important rules of show business is?
What’s that?
Knowing when to give up?
What do you mean?
Well, as far as I know you came to L.A. to find fame and fortune and unless it’s hiding under the dirty dishes in the kitchen. You haven’t found it.
HannahYeah, if it’s early days yet.
Is it?
I think we’re making good progress.
Are you?
Yeah?
We are.
HannahAren’t we?
Well, I don’t know, but what I do know is that if you guys wanna keep this apartment, you had better keep it tidy…and pay your rent on time. (She hits the table) Because otherwise it’s gonna be a case of repossession, and I don’t wanna go through that again.
Okay, guys, I’ve been practicing all day and now I want to see what you think.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Is everybody ready?
No. Wait.
No, no, no. Hold on.
Just in time.
HannahOh! How did it go?
Horrible.
Yeah? Well, you weren’t the one walking around like a giant wiener.
Ain’t that what you do every day of your life, anyway.
Shh. You two, Jon’s waiting to show us his new skills.
Okay. Is everybody ready?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hmm.
HannahYes.
But who’d have thought it though? You. A model. I mean. Well, not that you’re not… I think you’re very… Well, obviously, I can’t tell you now. I’m a bloke. But if…if I wasn’t, I’d be a woman. But what I’m trying to say is that I…
Look. Let’s just get on with it, shall we?
Alright. Cheers, Jo.
Right, okay. Jon is gonna strike a pose and you have to guess what clothes is modelling, alright?
Okay.
Okay, first one. Watch this.
Casual wear.
Yes.
Woo!
Well done, Brad.
He’s good.
Okay, this one.
HannahShoes.
Yes. Well done. Okay, and this one.
Sportswear.
Yes. Well done, Jo. It’s wicked. This one, okay?
Oh, oh. That’s easy. Arm suits.
Well done, Rach. Okay, come here. Let me do this one. (he brings Rachel) Okay, and that was this one.
Pyjamas!
Yes! Nicely one.
Okay, last one.
Underpants.
