00:01Ah, I was just bringing these upstairs to you.
00:04Well, I saved you the trip, Ben.
00:06Oh, it's a shame.
00:08It's a late shift today, isn't it?
00:12Do you know what?
00:14Tear tastes better in bed.
00:24Do you think our honeymoon phase will ever end?
00:26No, I hope not.
00:27You know, it's funny, right, cos if we were a heterosexual couple,
00:30we'd be thinking about what's next, like kids.
00:33Ew.
00:34What, you never thought about it?
00:36You know I haven't.
00:38Do you know Ivani asked me this the other day?
00:43I think about it.
00:44Sure, what?
00:46No, I'm serious.
00:47I think about it all the time.
00:48Kids?
00:49Well, no, kid, singular.
00:52You think about having a kid?
00:54Yeah.
00:55With me?
00:57Ha, ha, ha.
00:59I, um...
01:01I hate to break it to you, my love,
01:02but I think both of our eggs are a little on the geriatric side.
01:06There's always ways.
01:08What?
01:09I'm being serious, Eve.
01:12I think we'd be amazing parents.
01:19You are serious.
01:21Oh, why is it such a crazy idea?
01:23If people have babies all the time, worse candidates than us,
01:26so why shouldn't we?
01:27We've never discussed it before.
01:29Well, we're discussing it now.
01:31I...
01:32Is this about Vinnie and us?
01:33Are you feeling a bit pushed out?
01:34No.
01:35Are you?
01:36No.
01:37Well, maybe.
01:38But look, you said yourself that I was an amazing mum.
01:40Yes, you are.
01:41Right, and that meant the world to me.
01:42See, cos that's how I want to be seen.
01:44Well, what about being a career woman?
01:46On both.
01:47And being a good mum matters to me.
01:49You've already done it, Suggie.
01:50Yeah, but I did it on my own, Eve.
01:52And with a man I didn't love, and whilst living a lie.
01:56This, me and you,
01:59this is right.
02:01And I want us
02:03to have a chance at being parents.
02:06Together.
02:09Will you think about it?
02:11Yes, yes, I will.
02:14I will think about it.
02:16Yeah?
02:21I think Stacey did say she wanted me in a little bit earlier,
02:23so I'm gonna...
02:25I'm gonna jump in the shower.
02:27OK, sorry about that.
02:35He wants to hide under the quill,
02:36and then the other partner knows it's important
02:38to mark these moments, especially for the kids.
02:41I'm...
02:42A cat's made a cake.
02:43So I'll hope it's not morbid.
02:46I said don't bite of them ones.
02:49Are you all right?
02:50You've come in early,
02:51and you're late,
02:52and I think you've left your brain in the bed.
02:55Suggie wants kids.
02:58Kid, singular.
03:00What?
03:01Exactly.
03:02I mean, what...
03:03What the hell is going on?
03:04How did this happen?
03:05I mean,
03:06she's in the late fifties,
03:07for God's sake.
03:08I thought those hormones were supposed to be switched off by now.
03:11You really sound like a bloke sometimes.
03:13Hang on.
03:14Sookie wants a baby with you.
03:16Yeah.
03:18Aw.
03:19No, Stacey, not.
03:20Aw.
03:21Ew.
03:22Why?
03:23I don't want a baby.
03:24Why not?
03:25Look, the great thing about being gay, right?
03:27Is that you can stick two fingers up at a convention.
03:30Right, so...
03:31All of those...
03:32All of those questions that people feel like they've got the right to ask you,
03:34like, when you're having a kid or when you're having a second,
03:36we don't have to deal with it.
03:38You know, we can...
03:39just live our lives without any pressure.
03:42You know, I never said I wanted kids, not once.
03:45So just tell her that, then.
03:47You don't want them.
03:48It's not that simple.
03:51She's got that look in her eyes.
03:54You know where she's already decided.
03:56Yeah.
03:58It's like...
03:59When Sookie's made up her mind, you know you're in trouble.
04:02What are you gonna do, then?
04:04Why don't you come to the drinks this afternoon,
04:06take your mind off it?
04:08What drinks?
04:10Martin's birthday.
04:11I knew you weren't listening.
04:14Sorry, Stacey.
04:15Come on.
04:19You all right, Stace?
04:21I've got this memory jar thing.
04:22The kids have written some messages.
04:23I thought we could all read them out later.
04:25Aw, that's lovely.
04:26Thanks, Kat.
04:27Like that weren't rude.
04:29What are you taking for?
04:31They need to give teachers a pay-wise.
04:33These holidays are gonna kill me.
04:34Literally.
04:35Trace!
04:37Okay, Stace.
04:39Well, be here, please, Trace.
04:41I wouldn't give for a pint with that bloke right now.
04:44Hi, Stace.
04:45Sorry Billy can't make it.
04:46He's got stomach issues.
04:47Oh, don't worry.
04:48Jean's got the trucks and all.
04:49Oh, has she?
04:50I just thought you'd eaten a bad burger.
04:52Reckons it's super spreaders.
04:55Pardon?
04:56Kids.
04:58Okay, right, listen, is everyone here?
04:59Lovely.
05:01Attention, everybody.
05:02Listen, um...
05:04Thanks for coming, okay?
05:05As painful as it is, I think it's great that we're all
05:09doing this together, yeah?
05:10Even if it means suffering cats baking.
05:13Oh, it sounds good.
05:15Here you go, kids.
05:16Let's go.
05:18Nice.
05:19Come on, then.
05:20Make a wish.
05:24Yay!
05:26All right, everybody.
05:27Come on.
05:29Let's raise our glasses.
05:30Hands for Martin, yeah?
05:31Martin.
05:32Martin.
05:33Martin.
05:35Martin.
05:36What does it say, sweetheart?
05:37I remember when we made Martin a leopard print money belt.
05:41It was the day we knew he was a sleater.
05:44Is that you?
05:45No.
05:46It's me.
05:47I can be sentimental sometimes.
05:49Oh, man.
05:51My turn.
05:54Sharon.
05:55Why is it in your scroll?
05:56She, er, got in touch earlier from Australia.
05:58She just said she wanted to be included.
06:00Aw, that's nice.
06:02I remember me and Michelle babysitting Martin when he was a nipper
06:05and going to read him a story only to find him jumping up and down on the bed
06:08wearing my lipstick in his birthday suit.
06:12Nice.
06:13OK, right.
06:15Oh, talking of birthday suits.
06:18Right, and this is, I remember when I pulled Martin's towel off in the kitchen.
06:24OK?
06:25Guilty.
06:27I was hilarious, wasn't it?
06:29Yes.
06:33You OK?
06:34Yeah.
06:36I'm just saying I wouldn't be without my kids.
06:38It's nice.
06:39No, I'm not trying to persuade you.
06:40I'm just saying they don't take stuff from you.
06:43They give you stuff.
06:45So much.
06:49Whoa!
06:53So sweet.
06:55Wait, when it last year was in the Square Gardens,
06:59were we celebrating this mistake, thought we have?
07:01It's horrendous.
07:02I mean, it felt awful.
07:03Tony, I was making jokes about eye cream for weeks after.
07:06I mean, it's a bit fair.
07:08He loved it.
07:09He did, he did.
07:10Hi.
07:11Jackie.
07:12Hi.
07:13Hi.
07:14Hi.
07:15Hello.
07:16You all right?
07:17Yeah.
07:18Hot stuff?
07:19What can I get you?
07:20Some nice tipsy.
07:21Yeah, I might have had a couple of drinks.
07:24Actually, I think this is one who's white wine, so we could just steal a glass room.
07:29Oh, no.
07:30Just an orange juice, please.
07:32We're celebrating.
07:33Hello, yeah.
07:34I just want to have a chat later.
07:36I need a clear head frame.
07:38Oh!
07:39Oh!
07:40Oh, that is a beautiful dress.
07:44Oh!
07:45How lovely do you look?
07:47Oh!
07:51What?
07:53You.
07:54You're so transparent.
07:56What do you mean?
07:57Well, you think that me seeing you with a cute kid is going to make me all gooey-eyed?
08:02What?
08:03I don't want kids, okay?
08:05I never said I did, so can you please just drop it?
08:08Thanks.
08:10Thanks for thinking about it.
08:13I'll get the orange juice.
08:28I'm sorry, that was clumsy.
08:36Forgive me?
08:38Look, it's just, you're suddenly saying all this stuff, you know, about wanting a kid.
08:44It's just really freaking me out.
08:45Yeah.
08:46I can see that.
08:49I love you, and I love our life, and...
08:53I'm the happiest I've ever been.
08:54Yeah, me too.
08:55Right, so surely that's enough?
08:57It is.
08:58I never said it wasn't.
09:00And it's because I'm happy with you that I want this.
09:03You don't even like kids.
09:05I do.
09:06I can't imagine you're on the floor playing Lego covered in goop.
09:09Well, no, because that would be your job.
09:10Me?
09:11Yeah.
09:12Right.
09:14Because you were the big kid.
09:16Eh?
09:17I'd teach them discipline and teach them to tell the time.
09:23And you would do the silly voices and get them riding a bike.
09:30We'd be a brilliant team, Eve.
09:33And you would be an amazing parent.
09:35You don't know that.
09:38That's what it's about, isn't it?
09:40You're scared.
09:42Suki, I'm just not wired for it.
09:44Says who?
09:45Says...
09:46Says your mum, your dad, your guilty conscience.
09:48Come on.
09:49Hey, you are the most fearless person I know.
09:53We've all got demons.
09:55This voice inside our head that tells us we don't deserve something.
09:59And maybe somewhere, on some level, those words have gone in.
10:07I mean, my mum did say, at least you won't have kids.
10:10At least that gene won't get passed on, so that's a blessing.
10:13I mean, I know, I know, I know it's ridiculous.
10:15It's homophobic nonsense, but...
10:19Maybe you are right.
10:22And maybe I've never gotten over it.
10:24Because I never had to, right?
10:25Because...
10:28No one ever made me feel like it was an option.
10:30Until now.
10:34Eve, you are kind.
10:36You're caring.
10:37You're funny.
10:38Mm-hm.
10:39And patient.
10:41You'd be an amazing mum.
10:43You would.
10:44Family?
10:45Yeah.
10:46Our own little family.
10:47Shhh.
10:48Wow.
10:50Is that a good well or a bad well?
10:51It's a good well.
10:52It was a good well.
10:53Yeah.
10:54It was a good well.
10:55Yeah.
10:56I'm not saying definitely yes, okay.
10:57I'm not.
10:58But we can look at...
10:59At some options.
11:00See what's possible.
11:01So you'll consider it?
11:02Oh, it's a good well.
11:03It's a good well.
11:04Yeah.
11:05It's a good well.
11:06Yeah.
11:07It's a good well.
11:08I'm not saying definitely yes, okay.
11:09I'm not.
11:10But we can look at...
11:11At some options.
11:12See what's possible.
11:13So you'll consider it?
11:15Oh, for you.
11:16So you'll consider it?
11:17Oh, for you.
11:29So you up for it then?
11:32You up for having my baby?
11:33Yeah.
