Opening with Jill sitting, chatting away, Alan tells Dysart that she says “silly things”. She tells him that he has “pretty eyes” and wants to know if he'd like to take her out. Eventually he agrees, and they go to see a "silly" film. Alan is discovered by his own father who ... shows up at the theatre, and the truth becomes apparent to Alan, in that "his father is just like him." Shortly thereafter, an argument ensues between Alan and his father, and he won't return home and agrees that it's proper to walk Jill home. Jill ultimately leads him to the stables where they begin to become close and kiss for the first time.

In the only tolerable segment of this slice of festive treacle, Rickman teams up with Thompson again to play a cranky boss who combines shaggy sexiness with appalling bastardry. We forgive him, a little, when he gives Laura Linney some advice: "Invite him out for a drink and then after about 20 minutes, casually drop into the conversation the fact that you'd like to marry him and have lots of sex and babies."
