00:00Satsang with Mooji
00:30It's like the last chance saloon on the edge of the desert, isn't it?
00:38Still, I say it's always darkest before the dawn.
00:42You know, every black cloud's got a silver lining, eh?
00:44And as one door shuts, another slams firmly in your face.
00:47Yeah, yeah, March comes in like a lion and goes out like...
00:50Lofty, shut up!
00:54Worst it's been...
00:55What?
00:56Trade.
00:57I can see that, Lofty.
00:58Why?
00:58If I knew that, I'd do something about it.
01:00No, it's not!
01:02Trade was dropping off when Angie was here, like everything else in this country.
01:05Now, you go and put some music on.
01:06Do something to shut up this silence.
01:08Yeah, it's here to close.
01:09Yeah, it's your customer.
01:14Now, what have I done?
01:15Oh, come on in.
01:16Just when I thought trade was deserting me here, you all right?
01:18Cheer me up.
01:19Not in the mood to cheer anybody up.
01:20What the Lord?
01:21Yeah, flagged me down the minute I left the flats.
01:23Went right over the van.
01:24I mean, that's better than a ruddy M.O.T.
01:26All right, they've already done me, like Dickie Light.
01:28Now that's how they've never got dodgy breaks.
01:29God knows what to do before this time.
01:31Well, we've all got problems, mate.
01:32Yeah.
01:32Never fine, I'll do with help.
01:34Yeah, money, money, money, eh?
01:36It's like water dripping through a hole in a bucket.
01:40Angie's costing me a packet apart for the divorce.
01:43Do you want to hear her solicitor complaining how she's staying in a modest hotel, which
01:46ain't good enough for her?
01:47Well, it might be modest, and it might not be good enough for her.
01:49If it's costing me a fortune, the last thing I need is a pub dying on its feet.
01:52Yeah, I noticed that.
01:53What is that?
01:53It's nothing to do with Angie's not being here, either.
01:56Did I say that?
01:57Free this side of the bar, one that punt the side.
01:59No way to run her.
02:00At least no one thinks you're Jack the Ripper.
02:02Don't be too sure about that, mate.
02:03All right, so your business is doing better.
02:05I'll show you my returns from the stall.
02:07Here, it's yours, loves.
02:08Whiskey, please.
02:08Oh, Mr. O'Brien.
02:09Oh, it's quiet in here, don't I?
02:12Oh, it's getting lively by the minute.
02:13Soon be swinging.
02:14Well, not too loudly.
02:15I hope this is the noisiest neighbourhood I've ever been in.
02:17Really?
02:18I've never noticed it.
02:19Good night.
02:19Car doors banging, people shouting.
02:21Oh, you're not out in the suburbs now, old bean.
02:24I mean, look down the leafy lanes with the old back squeaking, telly-o and wacko and
02:27all that.
02:28Oh, I'm sorry I mentioned it.
02:30Double glazing.
02:31What?
02:31That's the answer.
02:32Oh, right.
02:33Yeah, front and back.
02:34Yeah, it'd have to be.
02:36They're at Weston, all right?
02:38No.
02:38Kelvin.
02:39Wixie, the usual and the dancing.
02:41All right.
02:43Yeah, well, I know.
02:44It's trade, honey.
02:45Do I really need it like this?
02:50Cheers, Kelvin.
02:51Cheers, Wixie.
02:53I'll challenge you.
02:55Only if you're stuck in that.
02:57Look, you can't run away from it, you know, Dad.
02:59I'm not running away.
03:01Good shot.
03:02What?
03:03Well, yeah, double top.
03:05You know something?
03:05You've got a good reputation around there.
03:07And you can't go around dealing with the likes of Nick Cotton.
03:09I know people won't notice.
03:10I'm not dealing with Nick Cotton.
03:12Well, where'd you get the silver, then?
03:13Oh, you're interrogating me.
03:15You're worse than...
03:16I don't know, the Gestapo.
03:17Well, if it's legit, why haven't you got a receipt?
03:19Because there's a pocket presence in a public place.
03:23Well, only just.
03:24Kelvin, leave it.
03:26What a play.
03:28I don't know.
03:29Stay away from Nick Cotton.
03:30I'll get you into nothing but trouble.
03:32How many times have you told me that, eh?
03:33I'm your father, Kelvin.
03:34Well, that's no excuse.
03:36Kelvin.
03:36Well, I'm your son.
03:38I think it's about time Dad took a bit of advice from sons.
03:41There's some things I know that you don't, you know.
03:42Kelvin, leave it.
03:43Hi.
03:44Hello, Al.
03:45Oh, bit of space.
03:46A bit of peace and quiet in a pint, please.
03:48Don't mention the quiet when Den's about.
03:50It's been really bad, mate.
03:51Maybe it is, and I'm sorry if it is, but you should be at my place.
03:53Two women, three kids and a beating snake.
03:55Hardly a room to swing the cat.
03:57And the noise.
03:58Don't talk to me about noise.
03:59I won't.
04:00Why?
04:00It's sleepless and nice.
04:02All right, then.
04:03All right.
04:04Two houses, showshops, please.
04:06Well, if Silver C's not like it, Sammy.
04:08I'm taking it for tasks, sloppy little beggar.
04:10Pick up after him, put away after him, empty ashtrays after him.
04:13Sounds just like my mother.
04:14Oh, no.
04:15It's not good enough, man.
04:16No, I'm on your side, mate.
04:18You won't intimidate me.
04:20Well.
04:20Without training me yet.
04:22I'll wish you luck.
04:23I'll leave it.
04:31I'm so happy to be a publican.
04:34Well, Den, it's a bit better now, isn't it?
04:35Still quiet, but at least there's a few bodies in the morgue.
04:38Seven customers, however regular, are not going to keep me in the manner I'm accustomed to, Lofty.
04:42Nor Ange, nor Sharon, nor you.
04:46So go and put some music on.
04:47Yeah, right.
04:49Are you on the door?
04:50Yeah, Tom.
04:52Here.
04:5315.
04:53Get Wixie for me in the morgue, but don't let me dad know.
04:56Yeah, all right.
05:01Sorry, Sharon.
05:02I just talked to you.
05:03Where?
05:03What's she in the morgue?
05:04All right.
05:05Keep in your mind, Den.
05:05We'll let you know if he's coming.
05:06Here, all right.
05:07Hiya.
05:10Hello.
05:11Just back from work.
05:11Want to say hello.
05:12Great.
05:13You all right?
05:14Yeah, I suppose so.
05:15Well, I don't sound so sure.
05:16Well, perhaps I ain't.
05:18It's difficult.
05:19What is?
05:24Well, suddenly I've got three fathers.
05:26One I'm keeping away from.
05:28One I never knew, so God knows what he's like.
05:30And Pete.
05:30Yeah, well, I've got two in all.
05:31I've only known one of them, and he ain't me real one, neither.
05:34You should think yourself lucky.
05:37Where's Wixie?
05:38Um, well, he was...
05:39Never mind.
05:39We're not exactly rushed off our heads.
05:42It won't have time to think about it.
05:44I can't make her head nor tail of it.
05:46Why don't you ask Lou?
05:46She'll tell you the truth.
05:48Yeah, well, she hasn't so far.
05:49Yeah, she probably thought it's for the best.
05:50But try now, eh?
05:51Yeah, maybe you're right.
05:53I'll talk to her tomorrow.
05:55What is it, Lofty?
05:57Look, I've got to go, Wixie.
05:58I'll speak to you tomorrow.
05:59Yeah.
06:01Softly, softly, catchy monkey.
06:03I'm not worthy of that.
06:04There are other ways to skin a monkey than by ramming six lace holes up his backside.
06:09I still don't understand it.
06:10You will, Lofty.
06:12You will.
06:13Now, come on, we need something to cheer us up.
06:14Maybe we should have a party, then.
06:16A party, that's it.
06:17Not just a pretty face, Lofty.
06:18Well, I never was.
06:19A party.
06:21Pete needs cheering up.
06:22I need cheering up.
06:23The pub needs cheering up.
06:24We all need cheering up.
06:25So we best have a party.
06:26We best make it soon.
06:27Wednesday night.
06:28Wednesday night is party night at the Queen Vick.
06:30All right.
06:31A party, party, you berk.
06:34Anyway, it's your birthday, isn't it?
06:36Oh, so it is.
06:36Happy birthday.
06:37So we'll have a booze up, a knees up, a song and dance.
06:41Fancy dress.
06:42Fancy dress.
06:42Set a theme, then, a style, right?
06:44Yeah, what about prison gear?
06:45For booze and cops.
06:46No, you don't want anything too difficult.
06:48If it's Wednesday, anything you can find around the home.
06:50Well, men as women, women as men.
06:51You know, that wasn't quite what I had in mind when I mentioned the theme.
06:54Have we all got the numbers?
06:56Have we got the bottle?
06:58So come on, let's dig out in frocks.
07:01Give the missuses the suits.
07:02No, sir, I don't think that's it.
07:03Now, come on, we haven't got time to advertise.
07:06The circle eight, spread the word amongst the square, all right?
07:08Now, this is going to be interesting.
07:10The women keep thinking they're bosses, don't they?
07:12Yeah.
07:12Let them wear the suits.
07:14We'll wear the frocks.
07:15No sign of Arthur's gyro.
07:20You actually have been here today.
07:21Well, Thursday, Friday by the latest.
07:23Oh, maybe it got lost in the post.
07:25No, it's never been late.
07:26I'll just ride in case they've stopped it.
07:28Oh, why should they do that?
07:30Man, they stop your money for any reason these days,
07:32whether you need it or not.
07:34Oh, maybe they've sent it on to him.
07:37I wouldn't have thought, so I'll ask him when I see him later.
07:40They're going to build an automatic toilet in the gardens.
07:43Yeah, how's that going to help the gyro?
07:46When you say cross-dressing, what exactly do you mean?
07:49Just that.
07:49You wear men's clothes, I wear women's clothes.
07:51I told you, they won't suit you, Dad.
07:53Look, you just keep it out of this.
07:54I lend you some of my gear, you lend me some of yours.
07:56Look, they won't fit you.
07:57Look, just button it.
07:58It's just a little bit of fun.
07:59I mean, the pub ain't been doing all that since Anne's left.
08:01Oh, so you put on my frock, I put on your suit,
08:04and we all go down the pub to improve Dennis' life.
08:06Is that it?
08:06Yeah, well, he's desperate.
08:07Yeah, so are we, which is why I ain't in the mood.
08:09Yeah.
08:10Here, Mary's got a mention in the papers.
08:12Miss Mary Smith, 23, Albert Square, found guilty of soliciting and fined 50 quid.
08:19Yeah, let me say something.
08:20Stupid woman.
08:21It ain't so easy for some.
08:22Ain't easy for none of us.
08:23No, I suppose not.
08:25Now, at this party, we're going to go to it.
08:26Yeah, you two remember, it's me and Pauline's birthday.
08:28We haven't forgotten.
08:29Yes, all right, we're going.
08:30Oh, well done, Mum.
08:31We need a bit of cheering up, don't we?
08:32Yeah, well, thank God for that.
08:33The council are getting round to putting the toilet in the middle of the square.
08:36It ain't one of them automatic jobs.
08:37Yeah, and when you're finished, you've got 30 seconds to get out,
08:39otherwise you're sprayed with disinfectant.
08:41Eh?
08:41Well, it's all done to the sound of music, of course.
08:43Pete, I want to start training.
08:45What?
08:46The Samaritans?
08:47Yeah, I think it's best I start now.
08:48Well, I really thought you would have given up that idea.
08:50At least one of them in this mess with the old bill.
08:52Well, it won't make no difference to that.
08:54Oh, great, ain't it?
08:55I've been training to support other people.
08:57Oh, yeah, lovely.
08:58Who's going to support me?
08:59I'll have plenty of time to give you hand.
09:00Well, I'm here to work, Dad.
09:02Look, while things are unsettled like they are, I'll take some time off college.
09:04I don't mean that, son, and your mother knows that.
09:06Oh, that ain't fair, Pete. It's different.
09:07There's no difference.
09:08You ain't suicidal.
09:09That's what you, Ruddy, think.
09:14Don't worry, Mum.
09:15They're just a bit upset, that's all.
09:16Oh, no, but that don't have to make him stupid.
09:19I'll tell you what, I've got an idea about his party tomorrow night.
09:22Oh, yeah, what?
09:23I'm not going to tell you.
09:24It's a surprise for you as well.
09:29Oh, it's in there.
09:30Yeah, Mum.
09:31Of course, the traders are always in trouble when the hub is closed.
09:47Yeah, but what will the other people do?
10:01What people?
10:01Well, the people who are traders.
10:02Well, they'll have to put up with it, won't they?
10:04It's the traders who bring the money into the square.
10:07It's all right, darling.
10:07I'll get it.
10:09Hello, yes?
10:10No, I'm sorry.
10:10Someone's been sitting there.
10:12Oh, no.
10:13What's that?
10:14I told you not to play with it.
10:16The damn snake's got out again.
10:18All right.
10:19All right, don't worry.
10:21There's no need to cry.
10:22We'll sort it out.
10:23No.
10:24You stay there.
10:27All right.
10:27Now, what's that?
10:28Allie.
10:28No.
10:29Please.
10:31Come on, I'm a bar for Kel.
10:32Will you go find this snake?
10:33Two teeth, please.
10:34Sue?
10:35Come on, Allie.
10:36I knew we shouldn't have left those kids alone in that flat.
10:45Well, I thought they'd be silly.
10:46Cheers, Sue.
10:47Have you seen us in the papers about Mary?
10:49Fined 50 quid for soliciting.
10:51Do you know something?
10:52It's disgusting.
10:53When she was arrested, she spent all night in themselves.
10:55If Dot and Neffel had heard the little baby cry,
10:56she would have spent the night in the room on her own.
10:58Oh, no.
10:58I'd better go see her, hadn't I?
10:59Yeah, you better do.
11:00Oh, yeah, there's a door on at the beach tomorrow night,
11:02a fancy dress dude.
11:02Do you want to go?
11:03What sort of fancy dress?
11:04Well, I think it's guys dressed as girls
11:06and girls dressed as blugs.
11:07You're not serious.
11:08I am.
11:08Do you want to go?
11:10Actually, I don't know if I fancy dressing as a woman, though.
11:12Oh, what?
11:12Yeah, really terrifying.
11:13Are you two talking about our party?
11:15Yeah.
11:15You going?
11:16Yeah, why not?
11:17Yeah.
11:18Oh, good, because I've got a really good job
11:19of telling my dad.
11:20Actually, I do, but I didn't really want to go.
11:22Look at her, shaming herself.
11:24Shaming?
11:26Yes.
11:26How do you mean shaming herself?
11:28Well, just look at her.
11:29Yeah, well, she's talking to Dr Singh.
11:31What's wrong with that?
11:32He's a very nice man.
11:33He's a Sikh.
11:34So what's that got to do with it?
11:36You wouldn't understand.
11:38I would have thought you, of all people,
11:39would think differently about racism, color, and creeds.
11:43What hope is there for the rest of us?
11:45It's got nothing to do with that.
11:47Of course it has.
11:47You always complain about racism,
11:49and you're as racist as anyone, perhaps even more so.
11:51I said you wouldn't understand.
11:53Well, whether I understand or not,
11:55Nainer could do a lot worse than the struggle cap of Dr Singh,
11:58or he is turban at her.
12:01I'm just going to lunch.
12:02I'll be back soon.
12:02I'm with some sort of helping doggy's leg.
12:05Someone you trained in.
12:07Nainer, I'd like a word with you in private.
12:09I'm busy.
12:09It won't take a moment.
12:11Excuse me, sir.
12:12What?
12:13You're making a fool of yourself.
12:14What do you mean?
12:15Smiling and fawning over that man.
12:17What do you mean, smiling and fawning?
12:19Smiling and fawning is what I mean.
12:21Mind your own business.
12:23It is my business if you embarrass me.
12:25I will smile and fawn as you call it over whomever I like.
12:28He's a Sikh.
12:29I know.
12:30A Sikh.
12:31No, shut up.
12:32I don't care if he is a Sikh.
12:33Get back to the shopper.
12:34Leave me alone.
12:36I'm sorry about that.
12:37It's all right.
12:38I must be going anyway.
12:39Oh, what a pity.
12:41I was wondering, perhaps we could go out for a drink sometime.
12:44You and me.
12:45I'd like that very much.
12:47Don't know whether you could face the fancy dress thing at the Queen Vic tomorrow night.
12:52Hello.
12:52Hi.
12:53Marriage with family, then.
12:54All right.
12:55Didn't even notice you were gone.
12:57Oh, thanks.
12:57Only jokes.
12:58I bet.
12:59Anyway, couldn't find it.
13:00What?
13:00A snake.
13:01Oh, a snake.
13:02Yeah, well, it's got to be somewhere.
13:05I wonder if the kids had taken it out.
13:07Well, they said they hadn't, but perhaps it slipped down a drain pipe or flushed itself down a toilet.
13:10It's very unlikely, Allie.
13:12No, it's not.
13:13Look, if it was determined to get out, it would have.
13:15Nothing would have stopped it.
13:16Yeah, but if it gets out, it might die.
13:18The weather's still bad.
13:19It'll go numb, sleeping.
13:20Well, I wish it would.
13:21It'd save me a lot of trouble.
13:22No, look, it's bound to be in the flat.
13:24I'll come out eventually.
13:25Yeah, but supposing it isn't.
13:26It is, all right?
13:27The cuisine's right.
13:28Maybe it is out.
13:29Maybe the kids took it out and they're too frightened to admit it.
13:31What do you want me to do, eh?
13:32Beat the information from them?
13:33Ask around the square, see if anybody's seen it.
13:36Yeah, right.
13:36I walk up to someone and say, have you seen a snake?
13:40Oh, please, Allie.
13:42The kids will be really upset if it dies.
13:44About a snake?
13:45Yes, they will.
13:46I'd get those kids examined.
13:47Allie, go on, get out of the way.
13:49You're in our way.
13:49You're under our feet.
13:50Go and see if you can find that snake.
13:51Yeah, well, maybe this is how the snake felt, innit?
13:53You know?
13:54I don't think it's appropriate.
13:55Men should dress as men and women should dress as women.
13:58Otherwise, you get confused.
13:59Is that it?
14:00No, that's not it.
14:01Well, I'm going.
14:03And the fact that you don't find it appropriate is enough to make me go.
14:07Anyone seen a snake?
14:09No, you're the first one today.
14:10Oh, thank you.
14:11No, seriously, I really am looking for a snake.
14:13The kids have lost it.
14:14Well, you won't find it in here.
14:15I hope not.
14:16What sort of snake?
14:17I don't know, a long one called Crush.
14:18What, a bird constrictor?
14:19If you like.
14:20If he grabs hold of me, I'll let you know.
14:21Cheers.
14:22Hey, you're going to the party at the Vic tomorrow night?
14:24Yep.
14:25Oh, I don't know yet.
14:26Yes, yes, I'm probably going.
14:27Great.
14:28Guess what Ian suggests we do.
14:30What?
14:30Crush.
14:31Crush.
14:31What's up?
14:32Oh, I've got a snake among this hot Pete.
14:50Sell your cucumber.
14:51No, that's no substitute for a snake.
14:53What's you on about?
14:54The kid's snake he's missing.
14:56It's escaped from the flat somehow.
14:57Lucky thing.
14:58If I see it, I'll tell it to go straight home, shall I?
15:00Do that, Pete.
15:00Cheers.
15:02Crush?
15:02Oh, yeah.
15:05Crush?
15:06Crush?
15:07Crush?
15:30Crush?
15:31Crush?
15:32I'm looking for a snake.
15:37Are you?
15:38Good luck.
15:39My main hope is that it might have eaten a cat, a dog or a policeman
15:41and got stuck in them railings due to a large bulge in its belly.
15:45You must have seen it on TV.
15:47Can't say I have.
15:48Or want to.
15:48Bye.
15:49Yeah, see ya.
15:52Looking for a snake?
15:53I can't help you, mate.
15:54You do.
15:55I don't want no aggro.
15:56Keep awake in the square, then.
15:58I'll see ya.
16:00Thanks, Kath.
16:01I didn't feel like going home straight away.
16:03I know the feeling.
16:05I do appreciate it.
16:06Oh, I'm glad I have a chance to scive off.
16:08Bit down the mouth meself.
16:10Here, I come.
16:10Say when.
16:11Oh, well.
16:11Oh, look, what do you know, Arm?
16:13Is this what being a Samaritan means?
16:14Well, I ain't sure you're supposed to get the booze out.
16:16Oh, well.
16:17Anyway, cheers.
16:20You ain't seen a boa constrictor, have you?
16:22What?
16:22A boa constrictor.
16:23Are you joking?
16:24Wish I was.
16:25No, I ain't seen a snake all day.
16:27Don't know when I have round here.
16:28They're not too common.
16:29But if I do, I'll tell ya.
16:30Cheers, mate.
16:31I'll tell you what, after last night, I should be seeing snakes everywhere.
16:34You going to that fancy dress gig tomorrow night?
16:36Yeah, might be good for a laugh, eh?
16:38Tell you what, if I find a snake, I'll put it round my waist and go as Eve.
16:41Suit the cars, Adam.
16:42Yeah, she'll probably go in armour with a bowler hat.
16:45Oi, oi.
16:46Oh, well, just a bit cheesed off, I thought.
16:49Got my sister-in-law there with her three kids, me and Sue,
16:52and a hide-and-seek boa constrictor all crammed into the flat.
16:55It's like a busy day in the cafe all the time.
16:57Come back, Mehmet, wherever you are, eh?
16:59Rescue me from your family.
17:02And Sue, she's loving it.
17:03Surrounded by kids, hugging and kissing that youngster all to herself night and day
17:07like a blood transfusion.
17:08It ain't good for her.
17:10I mean, they'll all be on their way sooner.
17:11What should be left with?
17:12Nothing, I suppose.
17:14Well, I wouldn't really mind, but they're so bloody good at everything they do.
17:17The cab's running like a dream.
17:19There's nothing left for me to do.
17:21Don't feel needed at all, you know?
17:24And all that women together stuff and their car still in their garage.
17:27I can't even get out of the night.
17:28Well, I'm sorry about that.
17:29No, no, I didn't mean...
17:32Listen, you don't want to hear all this rubbish.
17:33Well, that's OK.
17:34Nah, I'd best be on the way, all right?
17:36Hope you find your snake.
17:39Got mixed feelings about that.
17:40Go on, you love it.
17:43Cheers, mate.
17:47I don't know whether it's a laugh or cry.
17:48Oh, laugh, Paul, for God's sake.
17:50Where would we be if we couldn't laugh?
17:52In the loony bin round the twist.
17:54Shouldn't say that, should I?
17:55Well, if you can't say it, who can?
17:58Honestly, we should believe it, eh?
18:00Arthur comes up in court May the 7th.
18:02Heaven only knows when Pete's going to go up.
18:04Mary's already been.
18:06All we need now is for Dennis to go.
18:08Then we really can say, what is the square coming to?
18:10Oh, Denner never get nicked.
18:12No, not our Den.
18:13Yeah, that reminds me.
18:14I haven't seen Angie about.
18:15How's she coping?
18:16All right, I suppose.
18:17Bored out of her brain in that hotel.
18:19She finds it really frustrating being on her own.
18:22Yeah, divorce isn't easy, is it?
18:24I don't know, Paul.
18:25And I don't intend to find out.
18:27No.
18:27Oh, Den's not too happy at the moment.
18:29I mean, the pub's really doing horrible business since Angie left.
18:31I mean, not that Den will admit that's the reason.
18:33On top of that, Mr Wilmot-Brown's taken over the Dagmar.
18:38Ben's really nervous about that one.
18:39Yeah, I heard about that.
18:41That's going to make his business even worse, Vic.
18:44And Wilmot-Brown still uses the Vic.
18:46I mean, it's the right chick.
18:48It's not good form, though, is it?
18:50I mean, he'd say that himself, I know.
18:51Oh, yeah, yeah.
18:55Oh, dear.
18:56Do you think Mary was soliciting?
18:57I don't know.
18:59I mean, the police say she was.
19:01But what does it matter anyway?
19:03Yeah.
19:04They don't seem to get the men, do they?
19:05Always some poor girl like Mary, driven by desperation.
19:08Yeah.
19:09Only the women know what it's like to be that desperate.
19:13I mean, there for the grace of God go I.
19:14You can say that again.
19:16No, I don't think I'll bother.
19:22Here, guess what, Sue?
19:23I found it.
19:24Oh, good.
19:25Great.
19:25It was in the flat all the time.
19:27Oh, where was it?
19:28In a school bag.
19:29In a school bag?
19:30Yeah.
19:30Who'd ever think of looking in a school bag?
19:32Ain't quite a place in a flat.
19:33Ain't been disturbed for weeks.
19:36Yeah, I was thinking, Kath,
19:38if they send them two to the Knick,
19:40you and me will be prison widows.
19:42They won't send Pete, will they?
19:44No, no, I was only thinking the worst.
19:46They won't send Hartford, either.
19:47I hope not.
19:49You know they won't.
19:50Like the state of mind he's been in,
19:52they'll take that into consideration.
19:54I hope so.
19:54Pete would never attack women like that.
19:58I know he would.
20:00Right.
20:00He can be violent and lose his temper.
20:04I mean, thump a copper, yeah.
20:05Yeah.
20:06I could see him doing that.
20:07Even thump Pat.
20:08Mm.
20:08But beating her half to death, never.
20:10I don't care how much she provoked him.
20:13No, he wouldn't do that.
20:16He'd be all right, wouldn't he, Paul?
20:18Yeah, of course he will be all right.
20:21I mean, you never know.
20:23When you get caught up in the law,
20:25anything could happen, you know?
20:25You don't always come out the right way.
20:27No, no, Kath.
20:28I'll tell you what,
20:29he'll probably get, um, community service.
20:32You know, you have to do so many hours
20:34for the community.
20:36Mm-hmm.
20:37Yeah, they can clean that automatic toilet.
20:41Yeah, I've never heard anything so stupid in me life.
20:45Automatic toilet.
20:46Yeah.
20:47It's for automatic people, I suppose.
20:49Yeah, but, but,
20:50they're very good if you're constipated.
20:53Why's that?
20:54Because you go automatically.
20:57I was not soliciting,
21:00and I'm not a prostitute,
21:01no matter what the court says.
21:02That's not what I'm saying, Mary,
21:04but you did go up that market,
21:06and we both know what happened then you came back black and blue it's not the same thing i was just
21:10enjoying myself can't i enjoy myself no one's saying you can't enjoy yourself oh 50 quid how
21:16am i gonna manage 50 quid it's just to ease their consciences that's all they find me 50 quid and
