Is there a man out there?
Someone to hear my prayer
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! A man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
Sorry to drag you away
Thank God you did, this used to be
a quiet wee island.
Regretting you stayed away so long?
No, I'm regretting I never knew
what was here.
What?
This plave - the Taverna. I always
meant to come back and build it
some day, but - she beat me to it.
Do you prefer buildings to people?
What?!
Tell me something about my mum.
Your mum was irresistible, a one-off.
We talked and we fought - you
know it was me that brought her to
this island?
That wasn't the only thing you did,
was it?
Oh right, what has she told you?
Nothing. She's never mentioned
you.
But you said "Mum's always talking
about her friends from the old
days." What's going on? Sophie,
why am I here?

Fancy Donna with a grown-up
daughter!
Have you got any children, Harry?
No. I haven't put myself in the path
of paternity.
It's never too late.
I don't think my other half would
agree.
Oh - you don't want children?
No, no, it's not like that. It's just that:
: well, I'd have liked a daughter. I'd
have spoiled her to bits.
Lucky thing.
Is your Dad here?
I don't know.
What?
I don't know who my Dad is.
Is there a man out there?
Someone to hear my prayer:
Can I be nosey, I'm a writer so it
goes with the territory.
Go on.
How did your mother get this place?
When I knew her
she was singing in a night-club on
the mainland.
She was left some money, in a will.
We lived with an old lady when I
was little. Her name was Sophia?
What, my Great-Aunt Sophia?
I think it must be.
But: I always heard her money
went to: family:
Wait a minute - how old are you?
Twenty.
