Sound of mobile phone ringingNICK [reading text message] "Nick., I am too angry to speak. Bridget." Sound of mobile phone ringing NICK Huh! Hi, Bridget! BRIDGET Nick. NICK I thought you were too angry to speak to me. BRIDGET Shut up, Nick. How dare you. NICK How dare I what? BRIDGET Teach Hector to be a news reporter! NICK Ah, ahm, sorry, Bridget. BRIDGET He was ridiculous. "Hi, sexy, this is Hector Romero." My new editor will be here soon and I wanted to impress her. NICK So will Hector get the job then? BRIDGET Of course he won't get the job. You made me look a fool. You.., you and Hector are so stupid! ANNIE Who was that? NICK Wrong number. ANNIE Hey, Nick, look at this. This could be perfect for you. NICK What is it? ANNIE [Reading advert] "Is Shakespeare in your blood? Could you be our Hamlet?" NICK Yeah! ANNIE "Do you love performing?" NICK Yeah! ANNIE "Do you love travelling?" NICK Yeah! ANNIE "Do people adore you?" NICK Naturally! ANNIE "Then we need you. Call this number for a Shakespearean experience." NICK Wow! Hamlet! My dream! I'll call now. I must learn my lines. "To be... to be..." ANNIE "Or not to be?" BRIDGET Aagh!!! EUNICE MOUNTAIN Hello, Bridget. BRIDGET Eunice, what are you doing here? EUNICE MOUNTAIN Long time no see, Bridget. And how's Nick? Does he miss me? BRIDGET No. Er, yes. EUNICE MOUNTAIN Oh! You have a new hairstyle. BRIDGET Yeah. So have you. EUNICE MOUNTAIN Yes, but the difference is, mine looks good. BRIDGET Yes. EUNICE MOUNTAIN Anyway, Bridget, I am your new editor. Surprised? BRIDGET No, no, no. EUNICE MOUNTAIN Good. OK. Two rules. One: I am your editor and I am always right. Two: you are the researcher, you are always wrong. OK? BRIDGET OK. EUNICE MOUNTAIN OK. Now what have you got for me today? BRIDGET Well, Sting would love to come for an interview, but... EUNICE MOUNTAIN … But he's not coming. BRIDGET No. But we need a new reporter and... and... and I have found you the most perfect person. He's Latin American, speaks English and he's very sexy. Watch this. I know you'll love him. HECTOR "Hi, sexy. This is Hector Romero for Channel Nine. Wow, you look beautiful today. Guess what? There's been a diamond robbery in London. I would love to put diamonds on those pretty ears. But you, yes, you can sleep safely in your bed tonight. This is Hector Romero. I'll be back." BRIDGET Well? EUNICE MOUNTAIN Of course! Hector! Oh, he is perfect! BRIDGET [Composing email] ‘What a day! Hector's audition was a disaster.’ HECTOR "Hello, this is Hector Romero for Channel Nine." BRIDGET ‘Guess who interfered? Nick!’ BRIDGET Right, Nick! BRIDGET [Composing email] ‘And worse still, guess who is my new boss? Eunice Mountain!’ EUNICE MOUNTAIN I am your new editor. BRIDGET [Composing email] ‘But the good news is, she loved Hector.’ EUNICE MOUNTAIN Oh, he is perfect! ANNIE [Composing email] ‘We’ve found a perfect role for Nick. Hamlet, by William Shakespeare.’ NICK My dream! ANNIE [Composing email] ‘He's very excited!’ ANNIE Oh, don't worry, Hector, my little puppykins. I'm sure you would have been a very good reporter. HECTOR But Bridget is angry with me. ANNIE Huh! Don't worry about Bridget. NICK Guess what? I've got the job. ANNIE Hamlet? HECTOR Shakespeare? Congratulations, man! ANNIE Oh, great! When do you start? NICK Tonight. I've got the costume already. I think I will go and wash my motorbike. HECTOR You haven't got a motorbike. NICK I have now. BRIDGET Hi, everyone! Hector, you have a visitor - my new editor! Eunice, do you remember Hector? EUNICE MOUNTAIN Hmm. How could I forget? And of course Nick! I could never forget you! BRIDGET I thought you had a motorbike to wash? NICK Thank you. EUNICE MOUNTAIN Hector, I just popped in to say congratulations. You've got the job! Isn't it wonderful? BRIDGET Eunice really liked your tape. EUNICE MOUNTAIN Oh, you are perfect, Hector. BRIDGET Hector will have such fun. EUNICE MOUNTAIN I'm off. Oh, see you at 8 o'clock sharp tomorrow morning, Hector. Hmm! Oh, hmm! BRIDGET There's no need to thank me, Hector. ANNIE Oh, I think I’ve got something in my eye. Well, it was nice while it lasted, but now, Annie, it is time to say goodbye to Hector. He is going to be a famous news reporter, so there'll be no room for little old you. HECTOR It's OK, Annie. Whatever happens, we will always be together. ANNIE But you'll forget me when you're a famous news reporter. HECTOR However many stories I report - murders, bank robberies, small cats in trees - I shall never forget you. You, light of my life. "This is Hector Romero for Channel Nine, London." ANNIE Oh, Hector! HECTOR Oh, Annie! BRIDGET Oh no. Nick? NICK Yes? No! Ohh... "To eat or not to eat. That is the question." Hamlet's burgers - eat them without question. Sound of laughter COMMENTARY [v.o.] Next time in EXTRA, Annie wants to save the animals, Bridget has a date with Leonardo di Caprio, and what is in Nick's box? EXTRA, don't miss it. NICK That's nice.
