They're in a bridal shop.

'Can I get a drink?'

'Go to the petrol station'.

I feel quite sorry for them.

They clearly haven't got a clue!

I'm feeling a lot of pity for them too. Seems like Mary is fighting a losing battle.

And her transvestite comment...CRIIIIIIIIIIIINGE

£72,000 in dresses they can't sell! Nightmare. Love the idea of taking the OTT stuff to the trans-event.

The highlight for me so far is the walkie talkie in the bridal shop

If I'd paid for a ticket on that train and had her serving me I'd be asking for my money back.

My god, they are so unprofessional.
Haircuts and dental consults needed all round!

I would have struggled to buy my wedding dress from them.

Scruffy pair with no clue really. Hopeless case I think.

That was fascinating.

I was only thinking they'd be utterly fucked without Linda and then it came up they'd laid her off.

They've got everything they need...and no business acumen whatsoever.

They laid her off ?! I missed that bit

And re-hired her.

It was in the closing credits Ken. I had literally just said to DH "she's too good for them, they'll push her out".

If Linda started up on her own, Janet and wassiname wouldn't last 6 months.
