00:00Touch one!
00:02No!
00:03Can I pick one up?
00:04No, I don't.
00:05Pick one up.
00:08What's going on, guys?
00:09Frank's going fishing.
00:11Fishing?
00:12Isn't that for old people?
00:13There is no person.
00:14Frank's granddad is 79, and it's his birthday's day.
00:18Every year on his birthday, they go to this special lake.
00:23Sounds boring.
00:25Good thing you're not invited then.
00:28Last year, they caught three perch, two singlebacks, and a dead frog.
00:35Mmm.
00:36That one's my favourite.
00:41You fair?
00:42No!
00:43Yes, I insist.
00:44Come on, they're good for you.
00:46I love it!
00:47Don't eat that!
00:48Open up!
00:49Open up!
00:50No!
00:51Frank?
00:52You need to see it in the office, yeah?
00:54Okay.
00:55I'm sorry, Frank.
00:56We just heard some terrible news.
01:10Your granddad has died.
01:13I mean, we know he was getting weaker.
01:15We talked about that last time, remember?
01:17I think he was ready to go.
01:18When's the fear?
01:22When's the fear?
01:23We didn't know about this.
01:24We only found out when we found his lodgings to sort out the taxi.
01:29The landlady, she wanted to tell you, but she didn't know how to contact you.
01:30He actually died nearly a week ago.
01:31The funeral was yesterday, I'm sorry.
01:32The day without me?
01:33No.
01:34No.
01:35No.
01:36No.
01:37No.
01:38No.
01:39No.
01:40No.
01:41No.
01:42No.
01:43No.
01:44No.
01:45No.
01:46No.
01:47No.
01:48No.
01:49No.
01:50No.
01:51No.
01:52No.
01:53No.
01:54No.
01:55No.
01:56No.
01:57No.
01:58No.
01:59No.
02:00No.
02:01The house will be probably bezos.
02:03No.
02:04No.
02:05No.
02:06No.
02:07No.
02:08No.
02:09No.
02:10No.
02:11No.
02:12No.
02:13No.
02:14Yeah.
02:15No.
02:16Look, leave me alone.
02:17I'm fine.
02:19You're a pilot.
02:29What's that? What have you done?
02:33Frank, get out!
02:35Go on!
02:36Stop it.
02:37Leave me alone.
02:40What's going on?
02:42Tell me what's going on.
02:43He needs some space.
02:46Come on.
03:16I don't mind if I come in.
03:20Why didn't anyone tell him?
03:23Imagine having a funeral about anyone there.
03:25Well, he's dead. Doesn't matter.
03:27Course it does.
03:29It's really important.
03:30It shows everything they've done in their lives.
03:34Frank's granddad did loads for him.
03:35I mean, he looked after Frank when no one else would.
03:38Oh, it's not like any of you lot actually knew him anyway.
03:47It's all about being independent.
03:49Of course, she won't be leaving the dumping ground for a while yet, so this actual flat might not be empty then.
03:54It'll be roughly the same though.
03:56Ground floor, you get the garden.
03:58Top floor, you get the views.
04:00Yep.
04:01This needs a bit of colour.
04:04Might get some curtains, loads of cushions.
04:07No, let's think about that in here.
04:09Residents are prohibited from supplying their own soft furnishings.
04:12What? Why?
04:13I don't know.
04:14Fire risk, I guess.
04:15Best to be on the safe side.
04:16Yeah.
04:17This isn't so bad.
04:18Well, it's just a bit dirty, that's all.
04:21Give me a couple of hours, I could have to be spotless.
04:24Oh, residents are prohibited from supplying their own cleaning materials.
04:27Oh, you are joking me.
04:28Any eco-friendly products allowed?
04:30Oh yeah, because mould is very eco-friendly.
04:33Well, it is organic.
04:34Well, at least I'll be able to cook what I want when I want.
04:37Maybe a little candle on the table?
04:39No candles.
04:40Well, I'll get a lamp.
04:41All electrical products must be tested.
04:43Fine, I'll cook chips in the dark.
04:44Deep fat fries are prohibited, let me guess.
04:47Is there anything else I should know?
04:49Well, actually.
04:51No posters, no pets, no paint in the walls.
04:54No music after ten.
04:55No more than three visitors at any given time.
04:58Friends staying the night are absolutely prohibited.
05:00Anyone under the age of 18 must have written permission from their parents.
05:11No.
05:12No.
05:17Sapphire, wait.
05:18Look, I'm sorry if that wasn't what you hoped.
05:20No, whatever.
05:21No, I know how you've been building it up in your mind.
05:24No, I haven't.
05:25It's council, innit?
05:26It's going to be rubbish.
05:27The fact is, it's always harder leaving this place than anyone thinks.
05:30Oh, and you'd know.
05:32Yes, I do.
05:33I've seen loads of people go.
05:35They really miss it.
05:36Oh, the dorms.
05:37Is that why you're still here?
05:39No.
05:40You doing independence training is a total joke.
05:43Sapphire.
05:46What's that supposed to mean?
05:48Look, just take a look at yourself, Bika.
05:50You're still living with Cam.
05:51She does your washing.
05:52She lends you her car.
05:53I've done loads.
05:54I've got a job and I wrote a book.
05:55Have you ever actually lived on your own?
06:13What's up with you lot?
06:14Someone died.
06:15How did you know?
06:22Do we know where the funeral was?
06:24We could take some flowers.
06:26Yeah, he'll have a grave, won't he?
06:28It depends if he's been buried or cremated.
06:31Cremation remains may be scattered over a garden of remembrance
06:35or blasted into space.
06:36He wasn't blasted into space.
06:38He was buried.
06:54It needs its name.
06:57Why hasn't it got its name?
06:59Maybe they just didn't have enough time.
07:05I'm going to get to him and it looks good.
07:09Let's start.
07:10Yeah, we can do that, can't we?
07:11Of course.
07:13With a vase to put flowers in.
07:17We'll get a nice pot or one.
07:19Yeah.
07:20And the grass will grow over.
07:21You can plant little bulbs.
07:22They'll be out in the spring.
07:23Yeah.
07:26I mean, we're not being a gardener.
07:34Combs and I are going to plant some bulbs.
07:36And we're going to make a grave garden.
07:37I can do like a CD for the service.
07:39And someone to say something about him.
07:41It's called a eulogy.
07:42It has to have drugs.
07:44It doesn't have to.
07:46Witty anecdotes about the deceased.
07:49I think I know slightly more about funerals than you do, Gus.
07:54We can do what we want.
07:56It's our do, yeah?
07:57Yeah.
07:58Come on, give me and Frank a bit of space.
08:01Come on, T.
08:03Come on, Toby.
08:04We'll start the music.
08:05Who's got some?
08:06No, it's not playing.
08:07Three steps to heaven.
08:09Three steps to heaven.
08:10Three steps to heaven.
08:11One, two.
08:12One, two.
08:13Fire.
08:16I'll teach you to.
08:17I'll teach you to.
08:18I'll teach you to.
08:19I'll teach you to.
08:20I'll teach you to.
08:21Another one bites the dust.
08:25And another one gone.
08:27And another one gone.
08:28Another one gone.
08:29What was that?
08:30Er, poo!
08:32Oh, no, it's right.
08:33No.
08:34That's just mine.
08:35Not for a funeral.
08:43So, are you leaving then?
08:44Not yet.
08:45Why are you after my room?
08:47No.
08:48I just think you're lucky.
08:50Can't wait to get out of this prison.
08:52Oh, trust me, it's not that different out there.
08:54Still control you.
08:55Well, they won't control me.
08:57Where are the others?
08:59Downstairs, having some stupid meeting about Frank's grandad.
09:02Like, one funeral isn't enough.
09:04I reckon he's lucky to have missed it.
09:06Well, you don't know Frank then, do you?
09:08Yeah, well, why have all the fuss about some smelly old man?
09:10Right, that's Frank's grandad you're talking about.
09:12You might not care, but he does, so you can shut up.
09:15Well, if you care so much, why aren't you doing something about it?
09:18One phone call and social services would have found him.
09:24I will never understand people, you know?
09:27Yeah.
09:28So, how'd you go with Sapphire?
09:31The flat?
09:32All right.
09:33Bit grim?
09:34I don't know, I can't really compare it.
09:37I'm going straight out of the dump and ground and in with you.
09:40Yeah, but you've known young people who've lived in those kind of places, haven't you?
09:44Yeah, but I've never done it myself.
09:46I've never had to be independent.
09:48Well, independence isn't just about having your own flat.
09:52Yeah, but how can I help Sapphire if I've never paid the bills or done the shop for myself?
09:57I mean, loads of people my age live on their own by now.
10:00Yeah, but you don't want to move out, do you?
10:03Do you?
10:07Well, I can't stay here forever.
10:10Lily's living with her dad, that's going really well.
10:13I just think it's the right time.
10:15So when are you going to start looking?
10:17Tomorrow.
10:19I booked an appointment with a lettings agent.
10:26500 quid for an headstone.
10:28We could pull up a paving stone and make our own.
10:31No, I want a proper one.
10:35Lucky we kept some of that cash back.
10:37I don't know how much is there.
10:39There.
10:44180.
10:45220.
10:47400.
10:48400 short.
10:50Look, there has to be some mistake.
10:52Let me talk to whoever's in charge there, please.
10:54You're the manager, I see.
10:56Well, then maybe you could sort it out.
11:02You're just making excuses now!
11:07This is an absolute disgrace!
11:10So what's happened now?
11:12I need to find Frank.
11:18It's a fish.
11:19Where's this eye?
11:20There we go.
11:21Now all we need are the mirror pieces.
11:23So the mirror pieces can go around the fish and it will look like water.
11:26Cool.
11:27It was Sapphire's idea.
11:31Gina, did you like Elvis Predley?
11:33Well, I didn't know him personally, you know.
11:36What other music did he listen to in the 50s?
11:38How old do you think I am?
11:40Well...
11:42Come on, Mike.
11:43Give generously.
11:44Where is Frank?
11:45Nice dance.
12:14Hello.
12:15Can I help you?
12:16Are you looking for something in particular?
12:18I've come to sell something.
12:21Sorry.
12:22I didn't quite catch that.
12:24I've come to sell this.
12:28And is it yours to sell?
12:30Yes.
12:31My grandad gave it to me.
12:34Oh, your grandad.
12:35And what does he think about you coming here?
12:38He's dead.
12:41Oh, I'm sorry.
12:42I'm sorry.
12:44Santhi.
12:45Frank.
12:46May I?
12:50Well, this is quite a lot older than your grandad.
12:55Where did you get it from?
12:56From his dad book for him, then his dad book for him, and then his dad...
13:05So it's got quite a lot of history then.
13:08Well...
13:09That explains its condition.
13:10Here.
13:11There's a scratch on the glass, and the casing is dented.
13:21There's some discoloration on the face.
13:24Is that bad?
13:25Well, it's not the best example of a pocket watch I've seen.
13:29Can you sell it though?
13:32If it's a family heirloom, you'd be better off keeping it.
13:36I really need it, the money.
13:41How much were you hoping to raise?
13:43A hundred.
13:45A hundred?
13:46If I had a stone.
13:48A hundred.
13:50Very well, young man.
13:52You have yourself deal.
13:54How's that, bud?
13:55Oh.
13:57Moving.
13:59Nothing can stop it.
14:01Moving.
14:03Moving.
14:05Time to break free.
14:07Nothing can stop it.
14:11Oh.
14:18I've got the minute where it hurts good.
14:31Frank.
14:33I'm sorry.
14:35We spoke to the people at the cemetery and...
14:39The fact is, you can't have a headstone.
14:42Why?
14:43Look.
14:48Nobody paid for your granddad's grave, so he's in a kind of a...
14:52You know, a general one.
14:54So it really wouldn't be fair to put up a memorial just for him.
14:58Look, it means he's sharing a grave.
15:00They buried them three deep.
15:02Saf.
15:03Well, might as well be honest.
15:04That's how tight the council are.
15:06Well, Frank, you'll be able to put flowers on the grave, yeah?
15:09And as long as we know he's there...
15:11You don't need a crummy old gravestone.
15:14I'm sorry, why are you making excuses?
15:16It's totally unfair.
15:18We can't change the rules, Saf.
15:20Just because the only family had left was a kid in care.
15:23We never get what other people have got.
15:29Quality, Saf.
15:31I love what you've done.
15:34Hi.
15:35Hey, how'd you get on?
15:37Fine.
15:38You found a flat?
15:39It wasn't any I liked.
15:40So why are you looking so pleased with yourself?
15:43Come see.
15:46What?
15:47Wait for it.
15:48What?
15:49Wait for it.
15:51Ta-da!
15:52My car.
15:53Round, round, get around, I get around, yeah, get...
15:57What?
15:58Oh, I saw this bloke selling it on the way home.
16:00It's a right bargain.
16:01Tracy!
16:03Ugh, looks like a bad clown's car.
16:05Has it even got an MOT?
16:06See?
16:07Look, I'm not that stupid.
16:08I just thought you'd be really naked.
16:09It's probably a death trap.
16:10This means I don't ever have to borrow your car.
16:12I can be independent.
16:13I don't mind you borrowing my car.
16:15Fine.
16:16I'm gonna show you the kids.
16:17At least that'd be a bit more enthusiastic.
16:22What were you thinking?
16:23Look.
16:24I'm sorry about the headstone.
16:40How did you get the money anyway, Frank?
16:43I saw the pocket watch.
16:46What?
16:47I saw the pocket watch.
16:51Come on, Frank, not the watch.
16:53I had stomach proof Grandad existed.
16:58Who am I gonna leave the watch to?
17:01No one.
17:02What are you talking about?
17:03Of course you're gonna be able to leave it to someone.
17:06I'm not.
17:07I'm a nothing like Grandad.
17:10No, he was not a nothing.
17:12I think.
17:16They buried him like rubbish.
17:18Like, he never mattered.
17:21That's what's gonna happen to me.
17:24Stop it, Frank.
17:25You do matter and so does your Grandad and all the other Matthews.
17:29Going back to the first person who ever owned that watch.
17:32How many of us can say where we come from?
17:36Look, you're not a nothing.
17:38And as long as you've got that watch, you'll know exactly who you are.
17:41But I haven't got the watch.
17:44I showed it.
17:46So what are we still doing here?
17:48Come on.
17:53So is this it then?
17:55Council says we can't have something and so everyone just gives up.
17:59Look, they don't control us.
18:02Nobody does.
18:04We don't need their cheapskate grave.
18:06Yeah, but what can we do?
18:09We could dig up his body.
18:11No.
18:12No, look.
18:13It's not his body that matters.
18:14I said that.
18:16It's his life.
18:17That's what we need to remember.
18:19How?
18:20I know.
18:22When my mum and dad passed on, everyone gave her money and my uncle bought a bench for the park.
18:27Yeah.
18:28That's it.
18:29That's what we'll do.
18:30And we can put it by the lake.
18:31Where they used to go fishing.
18:32Yeah.
18:33Yeah.
18:34Yeah, but where are we going to get a bench?
18:35Ow!
18:36How long are you?
18:37Right, okay.
18:38Wait.
18:39What is this?
18:40Just do it.
18:41Take it off.
18:42Right.
18:43Can you wait till I put it down?
18:44Come on, Dad.
18:45Keep your hair on.
18:46Keep your hair on.
18:47Whoa.
18:48Perfectly salt.
18:50Oh, that's just so lovely.
18:52Why don't we just need some new wood?
19:04Quite a lot of new wood.
19:08Well, we'll just have to build our own bench.
19:12I'm sure I've got plenty of junk lying around this place.
19:14Come on, lad.
19:15What a pile of junk!
19:30What do you reckon?
19:32Frangin!
19:33Wicked!
19:34Want to lift?
19:35Yeah!
19:36No way! Are you in the front?
19:38Right. I'm going to do.
19:40Just go and pick something up, okay?
19:42You and Frank?
19:45I'm in the front of the park.
19:47Maybe you're at the front of the park.
19:49I want you to pick something up here.
19:51I'm in the front of the park.
19:53Decorations?
19:55Yeah.
19:56Ooh!
19:58Oh, yeah.
19:59Yeah.
20:00Yeah.
20:01Yeah.
20:03Oh, yeah.
20:04Oh, yeah.
20:05Oh, yeah.
20:06Oh, yeah.
20:07Oh, yeah.
20:08Yeah.
20:09Oh, yeah.
20:10Oh, yeah.
20:11Oh, yeah.
20:12Oh, yeah.
20:13Oh, yeah.
20:14Oh, yeah.
20:15I don't know what's wrong with it.
20:33I hate to say it.
20:35It's what we could do with a lecture.
20:36Don't worry, I'll get you to the watch place.
20:39Yeah.
20:40I was like, I mean, it was better off all the time.
20:43Yeah, yeah.
20:43Can I have some of that part one?
20:45Cross, cross, cross.
20:48I'm eating the blue at the moment.
20:53Okay, Tracy.
21:08This is way better than a headstone.
21:10Yeah, it's the best surprise.
21:11It's the best surprise ever.
21:12Electra, you did loads.
21:14Didn't she?
21:16Yeah, you didn't do bad.
21:18How can you do all that stuff?
21:19How come you can't?
21:20Oh, hello.
21:36Did you get your headstone?
21:37I'm not allowed to get out one.
21:40Oh, that's a shame.
21:41Yeah, that's why he wants the watch back.
21:44Sorry, you want me to return the watch?
21:46Even though you begged me to buy it from you.
21:49It's a family, Alan.
21:51He's changed his mind.
21:53Well, I'm sorry, but it's already reserved.
21:55I have a customer coming in this afternoon.
21:57What?
21:58He's one of my regulars.
21:59He's a pocket watch collector.
22:00I telephoned him the minute it came in.
22:02We'll pay extra.
22:04Well, I'm afraid you're going to need a little more than that.
22:09How much?
22:12$7.50.
22:14You only paid $100.
22:16You cheer me.
22:18I did not.
22:19You asked me for £100, and I gave it to you.
22:23Like a beer.
22:25Do you see bin bags on the doorstep?
22:28A collecting box on the counter?
22:31No.
22:31No.
22:32This isn't a charity.
22:33I'm running a business.
22:35Look, he's desperate.
22:36It was his granddad's, the last thing he had.
22:38Then he should have done some research into its value first.
22:41It's my granddad's.
22:42The more precious thing I've ever had.
22:45He wouldn't say it by anything.
22:47I'm sorry, I can't understand a word you are saying.
22:50You're insulting it, but...
22:51Bordering on aggressive, actually.
22:58You put that down!
23:01No, Frank.
23:02No.
23:04Look, I'm really sorry.
23:06Please remove your friend, or I will call the police.
23:12Come on, Frank.
23:17What happened?
23:18She won't give her back.
23:20She wants $7.50 for it.
23:22What?
23:23We'll get no money, Frank.
23:24We won't.
23:26We won't get it down.
23:28Frank, it's okay.
23:29Calm down.
23:30Nah, I'm going to sort this out.
23:34And who are you?
23:35His sister?
23:36His care worker.
23:37He lives in a kid's home.
23:39Then shouldn't you know what he's doing?
23:40Why are you letting him walk around with an extremely valuable watch?
23:45Isn't that rather irresponsible of you?
23:48This isn't my fault.
23:49The boy needed money, and I helped him, which is rather more than you have done.
23:55Okay, let's come to an arrangement.
23:57You sell antiques.
23:59So, what if...
24:00What if I had an antique car?
24:15It's junk.
24:16It's classic.
24:17It's a wreck.
24:18It's got character.
24:20Stop wasting my time.
24:26Actually, er...
24:28I could do with a little runaround.
24:31What?
24:32How much are you asking?
24:34Just the watch.
24:35And you get the hundred quid back.
24:37Done.
24:42I still don't know how you got her to buy it.
24:44My superior selling skills.
24:46No, seriously.
24:48Hey, doesn't matter.
24:48We got the watch back and saved the cost of scrap in the car.
24:52Yeah, cheers, Xanthi.
24:54Xanthi.
24:55That's it?
24:56What?
24:57X4NTHE.
24:59It's a personalised number plate.
25:024 looks like an A, so it says Xanthi.
25:03You gave it away.
25:05Oh, hardly.
25:07I can't believe we missed it.
25:09Oh, come on, boys.
25:10I'm sure it's not worth that much.
25:11Have you got internet on your phone?
25:12I'll prove it to you.
25:15Hi, Mike.
25:18What?
25:18Now?
25:22Yeah, see you soon.
25:24I know.
25:25Why don't we go to the lake?
25:27You know, the one you'd go to with your granddad.
25:29You can tell about the watch.
25:32No.
25:34Back in the taxi.
25:35You're never going to believe this, Tracy.
25:38Oh, forget it.
25:41Please.
25:41Come on, just have a guess.
25:43Look, I'm really not interested.
25:44Money doesn't matter.
25:45Seven and a half million pounds.
25:47No, wait.
25:47What?
25:47For one number plate?
25:48Of course, most are less than that.
25:50I'm only tens of thousands.
25:51So, you can shut up now, please.
25:52Ha!
25:53So, where are we going?
25:54Granddad's special, please.
25:59Ten thousand, you know.
26:00All right.
26:00Come on.
26:02Are we nearly there?
26:03What's that?
26:08Don't know.
26:09What does it say?
26:16Eric Beverly Matthews.
26:181931 to 2010.
26:21Frank's granddad who took him fishing
26:22and gave him a pocket watch.
26:24From Frank and all his friends at the dumping ground,
26:27we will always remember you.
26:28Surprise!
26:32Do you like it?
26:33Look.
26:34I made this fish.
26:35And look, I did this owl,
26:37but I actually did most of the work.
26:39I just did the fixing for the last few years.
26:42Well, go on then, try it out.
26:43It's a day.
26:44I really don't know what this is.
26:51My granddad would know this.
26:54And he would be dead and just get it ready.
27:00Fools ready!
27:02Here you go, girl.
27:04Okay.
27:05Can I have one?
27:06Listen, about the independence training.
27:08Oh, don't even worry about it.
27:09No, you were right.
27:11I've never had to manage on my own.
27:13We've got other good points, though.
27:15I mean, you've got Frank's watch back
27:16and sold your car without thinking.
27:18Don't talk to me about the car.
27:20All right, you horrible locks.
27:22Standing by for a photograph, please.
27:24Come on, everybody over on the bench.
27:25Come on.
27:26I want you gathered up there, please.
27:30Come on, Electro, are you?
27:33I'm ready.
27:37Yeah!
27:39Here we go.
27:40Oh!
27:46What?
27:47Knew I'd get you back.
27:52Knew I'd get you back.
