00:00Salaam. My name's Shahid. What qualities are you looking for?
00:08Somebody that can, you know, look good against me.
00:11Well, my sister would be expecting somebody who is mature.
00:17All I want is someone to lean on and share my life with.
00:20Someone who'd make me feel like I mean something.
00:25I'm divorced.
00:26What? Did you cheat on her or beat her or both?
00:29No, no, no. Not like that.
00:31It'd be good to meet someone different, Mum.
00:33Instead of these local, narrow-minded girls with their riffraff frame of mind.
00:38I'm Fatima Mia and simple things satisfy my complicated heart.
00:43You look like you've done every celebrity diet on the planet.
00:46I feel like an advert giving hope to overweight men on Weight Watchers.
00:50Or on crack.
00:52No.
00:54You don't strike me as someone who's driven by pride and ego.
01:00You're smart, intelligent, and above all, honest.
01:04Did you know that I'm div-um?
01:06Did I know that you're what? A div?
01:08Yeah, I figured.
01:11So you don't know that you'll be married? Where's your trust? Where's the love?
01:14I like him, but I feel like you need to drop him.
01:16This is your dad.
01:17My dad who's trying to match you with some wet-trip wannabe MP.
01:20Fatima, this is Jahed Khan.
01:22There's something hidden behind those eyes. You're hiding something.
01:33And whilst all these emotions were going around in my head, something occurred to me.
01:38I have no one who I can share any of this with.
01:41I am putting myself out there, and maybe I'll find you.
01:47Back off, or there will be police.
01:52Oh!
01:53You've broke me nozzles.
01:55You beautiful booger.
01:57Oh.
01:58You gonna do that again? Go on.
01:59Go on.
02:00Oh.
