Sal is very annoyed but relents when she learns that Jock has personally tracked down Charles Dance and is paying him so as not to let the ladies down. The famous actor duly arrives but is extremely boring, wittering on about almost everything in which he has appeared, though the ladies seem not to care, Rosie fainting in excitement. Sal cares even less as she and Jock stroll off together arm in arm.
