00:00THE END
00:08Look at the fish there. Look at the trout going through there.
00:10Wobbly, look. Yeah, I see it.
00:11Look, it's coming up to the top. Look, that trout is.
00:13Look, see him?
00:14Wobbly, look at the size of this thing.
00:16I see it, yeah.
00:17They've been in there a couple of years now.
00:19Have they? Yeah.
00:20Isn't that magnificent?
00:21Yeah, yeah, that is, yeah.
00:22That's, like, what do you get out of it?
00:24All this? That. That's what I get out of it.
00:26Yeah, no, exactly. Yeah, yeah.
00:28That is what I get out of it.
00:29Yeah, you're a very fortunate man to be able to do it, mate. It's lovely.
00:31Do you know what, Wobbs? The harder I work, the more fortunate I get.
00:34That's it, yeah. The luckier I've become, innit?
00:36Yeah. Go on.
00:38That's it.
00:39God, that's made me day, that. They looked happy as anything, didn't they?
00:42Yeah, they do, yeah. It's lovely.
00:44I bet I'll get on with some work.
00:55Three weeks into me third year.
00:57The vision for my little corner of West Sussex just got bigger.
01:03This is what it's all about.
01:05And you don't go in here with strimmers and shave it right to the edge.
01:09This is a beautiful wildlife sanctuary. Look at that.
01:12With the farm, lake house and manor house in the bag.
01:18Boom.
01:19I've only done the triple and I'm busier than ever.
01:22At the moment I've got three projects.
01:24I've got the farm, I've got the gentleman and I've got the manor house.
01:28So be careful what you wish for.
01:30If there was silence and nothing going on, he'd fill it.
01:34I've got a four month deadline to get works on the manor house wrapped up.
01:38Because I've got a push on down to the lake house.
01:42You have to keep looking.
01:44With my eyes on the prize, what could possibly go wrong?
01:48Emma will say it, Wobbly will say it.
01:51Oh, you know, he's got too much on.
01:53I haven't got too much on.
01:55Yes, the list gets longer, it doesn't get shorter.
01:57Just how I want it.
01:59You can see pressure here.
02:01This has got to be done quickly because the amount of people running around,
02:04you can see there's an end goal.
02:06There's armoured cables that are going all the way down there.
02:08Bloody mess it is.
02:09It's just madness.
02:10The carpentry, the plumbing, the roofing.
02:14What's that floor going down?
02:16The plasters.
02:17The painting.
02:18It's got to be a White House, Clint.
02:20I want it to be the White House up on the hill.
02:22And all that will be all Rattan furniture.
02:25It's Vinnie all over, he wants it done like yesterday.
02:28You know, they're knocking walls down there and they've got a painter in the next room.
02:31And that's what it's like.
02:36With an army of tradies underway.
02:39You making a mess everywhere?
02:41Oh, I can't even look.
02:43I've got a guy on the ground keeping a close eye on all my finer details.
02:49James.
02:51I want this nice and bright, James,
02:53because otherwise you're coming into a black hole of Calcutta, aren't you?
02:56Fine.
02:57James is a good bloke.
02:58He's my project manager.
03:00He does it brilliantly.
03:01Would he be able to hold onto my rocket in a day's work?
03:04I don't think so.
03:05Sorry, is there anything that you need me to help?
03:08Yes, put the kettle on, hon.
03:09Possibly the bar.
03:10This is my personal pain in the arse right here, James.
03:13And, hon, what do you need her for?
03:15So, well...
03:16James, talk to me.
03:17The kitchen's done, I think.
03:18The only thing that I don't know is the bath.
03:20Vinny's mantra, keep swinging.
03:23I think, depending on emotions, Vinny can go into turbo.
03:29Personally, I think I like that one.
03:31OK.
03:32It looks a bit shorter.
03:33That's like yours.
03:34Dumpy.
03:35No, my legs, no.
03:36Go with that.
03:37It's more of like, where does it end?
03:40Is there a finish line?
03:42And the answer is probably no.
03:44What colour scheme were we on the walls up there, James?
03:47We haven't gone into that yet, so...
03:48I just want a little tinge of something.
03:50I don't, you know, I don't want this bold colour.
03:53It's got to be bright.
03:54Yeah.
03:55But Magnolia's lovely, innit?
03:56That tiny tinge of yellow, innit?
03:58Yeah.
03:59Yeah?
04:00You and I can liaise.
04:02Yeah.
04:03Don't listen to her.
04:04She has not got final say, James.
04:05He talks about it like an army.
04:07He is the general.
04:09If he wasn't Vinny Jones here,
04:11he would probably be a general somewhere.
04:14TV up there.
04:16Oak, rails, rails, rails,
04:18because this is a walk-in closet.
04:20All this is going to be drawers, right, James?
04:22Fine.
04:23And then you can hang shirts.
04:24And we can't both talk.
04:25Sorry, yeah.
04:26This is going to be single.
04:28Stop looking and talking to her, James, please,
04:30because you are causing all the problems here.
04:32Do you like that?
04:33Yeah, it's done.
04:34Don't even go there.
04:35We've just spent thousands on the windows.
04:38I think we've done it right.
04:40Yeah, no, I agree.
04:41You agree?
04:42I'm not having that.
04:44It'll be fine.
04:45Let's go.
04:46Absolutely.
04:47Well, that's the right answer, James.
04:48Well done.
04:50We will swap numbers, OK?
04:52So that we can liaise, hon.
04:54I'll give her a different one.
04:55Yeah, yeah.
04:57With the controlled chaos in full swing,
05:00the man has no place for my newly appointed conservation builder.
05:06Morning, mate.
05:07Morning.
05:08Not so you see every day, is it?
05:09What a bright happy day.
05:10What is that?
05:11It's a baby peregrine.
05:12Is it?
05:13Yeah.
05:14Not so you see every day, is it?
05:15No.
05:16He or she?
05:17She.
05:18How old she, then?
05:19About 20 days.
05:20Look, a lot went on last year, and I think poor old Wob's got grinded right down to a halt.
05:27So I've got to regenerate him.
05:29Put some energy back into him.
05:31I'll put him on luxury jobs, shall we say.
05:35Nature jobs.
05:36Oh, fuck.
05:37I knew this would happen.
05:38Who's putting the goats out?
05:39Wobbly.
05:40He'll be grafting, but I won't be pushing him as hard, because he is a celebrity now, you
05:49know, our old Wobbly.
05:51I keep hearing, anyway.
05:53This is definitely the troublemaker, this one, isn't it?
05:56The first thing our newfound celebrity can open, is a pathway between properties.
06:02Cutting through the woods, the organic way.
06:06I was expecting six or eight big old goats to come in there and chew through it all.
06:12Not little toy goats.
06:14I don't know how long it's going to take them to munch through there.
06:18and just flatten it, but it's not a very nice thing to do, is it?
06:22So the first problem we've got with the goats is working it out to put this on.
06:26Well, it's supposed to be a head collar.
06:27Can't be that hard, can it, surely?
06:29I just want to work this out so I don't look like a dickhead when I'm putting them on.
06:34It's a typical Vinny, really.
06:36He's had the idea.
06:38He plants the seed, and then everyone else has got to water it and make it grow, basically.
06:43Right, stay still.
06:44If that goes there, that ain't right.
06:47They didn't teach you this in goat school, did they?
06:49No, they didn't teach us this in goat school.
06:51I'll give up.
06:56Come on then.
06:58Come on.
06:59It's working.
07:01Warbly walking his goats.
07:04You shake your nuts.
07:05That's how you get your goats.
07:07You shake your nuts.
07:08Come on.
07:09They're not pissing off, are they, love them?
07:11So that's what I was doing, was shaking my nuts and that's how you call your goats.
07:14Oh, this is working, really.
07:15This is easy, isn't it?
07:16I had the measure of them straight away.
07:18Hey.
07:19They look like they're enjoying their self.
07:24The hardest thing is going to be getting them in there.
07:26They're not going to be able to do the job.
07:28I can tell you that now.
07:29They're not going to be able to do the job that I need.
07:31Come on.
07:33Good boys.
07:34Good boys.
07:35Good boys.
07:36Oh, I'm a natural, aren't I?
07:38I have a natural.
07:40Look at that.
07:41They're straight onto it.
07:42Look.
07:43Maybe it will work.
07:44Be interesting to see at the end of the plate of the day, once they've been eating that
07:46all day, whether this is still as important to them.
07:48Now they've had a taste for it.
07:50Wobbly's little squad of goats are on the brambles.
07:59But I'd better see some results, cos the transfer window's wide open.
08:05And at the farm, there's already talk about expanding the team.
08:11Which could turn my summer on its head.
08:15It's quite an experienced boy.
08:17He's been around the block.
08:19He's kind.
08:20I'm looking for a kind boy.
08:21Hon!
08:22Do you know?
08:23I don't know.
08:24I don't know what to do.
08:25Right.
08:26It is solely your responsibility, hon.
08:28I'm in turmoil, honestly.
08:32So, Pip is now four.
08:35And we always thought, let's not have a spade cos we might want to have puppies.
08:40And we left that open up until now.
08:44Up until she was four, cos that really is kind of the cut-off point, really.
08:48You've got one or two days left.
08:51Well...
08:52She's in season.
08:53You're going to have the moody Margaret for a bit.
08:57You mate her with Ted.
08:59Yeah.
09:00Which I don't want to see, or anything to do with that.
09:02You don't have to see that, hon.
09:04Don't want you getting any ideas, though.
09:08Oh, blimey.
09:09Blimey.
09:10Season three!
09:15But, look.
09:16This is totally your decision, because I'm not going to be here to change that...
09:21Nappy.
09:23The kennel.
09:24Three or four times a day you've got to change it.
09:26All the piss and shit.
09:27And then how many times you've got to feed them?
09:29I have not got time to mess about with them all.
09:32No, I know. I understand that.
09:33You, on the other hand, have got plenty of time.
09:38Really?
09:39I'm telling you that from day one.
09:42I'm being straight.
09:43I wish Pip could just tell me what she wants to do.
09:46I think they should have one letter.
09:49You'll love them.
09:50But, when all the hard work's done, they go.
09:52Yeah.
09:53I know.
09:54And that's kind of where my heart is.
09:56But then, do we really want another dog?
09:58That's the thing, isn't it?
10:00I don't know.
10:01We've got to the weekend to decide.
10:03No.
10:06Pip's clock ain't the only thing ticking right now.
10:09I've got trouble brewing at the lakes.
10:11So I'm gathering a posse.
10:13I'm going to go down and see Patty. I'll be back.
10:16The long, hot summer may be a lucky stroke,
10:18keeping my roofers and painters on schedule.
10:21But right now, none of that matters.
10:24The lake house is more important at the moment
10:26because the fish are dying.
10:29Too much sun and not enough rain
10:31has thrown one of me lakes out of whack.
10:36Unless I move fast,
10:3820 grand's worth of prized trout could go belly up.
10:43The top lake loses oxygen very quickly
10:46because it's not deep enough.
10:48And the sun's rays go straight through it to the bottom.
10:51Then you get the algae and everything else
10:53and the weeds are growing.
10:54The fish are gasping.
10:57Their top fin is out the water
10:59and they're swimming around in circles.
11:00So what the emergency is to get oxygen back into that lake
11:04as quick as we can.
11:07With my prized trout in jeopardy,
11:09I need my star men, Wobbs and Patty.
11:12Where's Patty?
11:13On the ball.
11:14What do you reckon?
11:15Hey, Patty.
11:16Hello, Wobbly.
11:17As I understand it, my little knowledge.
11:20Trout basically live in a river, don't they?
11:22So it's very fast flowing.
11:24So then he has a big sort of aerator
11:26that disrupts the surface which puts oxygen into the water.
11:30But gone to put his switch on, it's not working.
11:32So hence Patty's here to try and sort out the electrics.
11:35If anybody can, Patty can.
11:37I say he gets it going.
11:39Patty was a super footballer.
11:41I've known Patty 45 years, you know.
11:44He's such a great bloke.
11:46Like, whatever you said, Patty, we've got a shuttle to the moon tomorrow.
11:49Yeah, I'm in, son.
11:50Yep.
11:51And he'll be there.
11:52No, I'll get it going today, whatever happens.
11:54Patty was the nearly man.
11:56He nearly made it as a pro and he got released at the last minute.
12:00I think he sort of see it coming and went into electrics.
12:03If there's power there, then you're made.
12:05Change the fuse, we're done.
12:07Come on, Patty, what you got?
12:08There's no power here.
12:09Nothing at all?
12:10No.
12:11Well, there's only one place that can come from.
12:13This must run down there into that barn.
12:17I told you about the pump, didn't I?
12:19Pump. It trips.
12:20It's tripping.
12:21Oh, non-stop, non-stop.
12:24It was a right touch wrangling wabs to help Patty.
12:27There's a cable there.
12:28If anyone can throw some light on a situation, it's him.
12:33That's the controller for it, obviously.
12:35Yeah.
12:36And then that's the cable that goes out.
12:38There was a join in that, cos I cut through it.
12:41What do you think, boys?
12:42There's wires going behind this, Patty.
12:45They're both going into that.
12:48Where does that feed?
12:49I wonder if it's in here, Patty.
12:50No, I've got live air, then.
12:52Have you?
12:53Yeah.
12:55Are you switching things on and off?
12:57Yeah.
12:59I reckon it went down through that.
13:00Why has it been cut off there?
13:01I don't know.
13:02There's your three wires there, mate.
13:04If you take that juncture box off there, Pat, you'll see there's nothing coming out of that, mate.
13:09Nightmare.
13:10I reckon it's in there somewhere, but it's how far back it goes.
13:14Dig this up, we'll find it, mate.
13:15I've got another idea.
13:16We'll run a generator straight there, get the aerator out there, boss.
13:20At least that would get you out of trouble for the time being, wouldn't it?
13:22Yeah.
13:23You've got two builders here and the old film star comes up with the idea.
13:26Not my first radio, Patty.
13:28Max, give him your tools, mate.
13:30Give him your tools.
13:31You know when the bloke says, look where the ball is and he's got the three jugs and he's
13:36going, shh, shh, shh, and you go, it's under that one.
13:38No, it's under that one.
13:39That's me at the moment.
13:40Yeah, that's it.
13:41Shall we get the Jenny off, lads?
13:43All right, Patty.
13:44Steady on, son.
13:45Did you know how to start it, Patty?
13:48No.
13:49I know how to put a plug on, though.
13:54That's rough, isn't it?
13:55Yeah.
13:57Another journey, lads.
13:58Sorry.
13:59Honest to God, this is never-ending.
14:01Come on, Wob, let's fly up and get this going.
14:03Right, Patty, that's got a roll on the bottom of that.
14:05I'll bring that round and the two airways.
14:07Get them's up.
14:08We'll be back.
14:09We'll pull it up.
14:10We'll go wallop.
14:11Job's a good'un.
14:13It's all got to be done because the fish are dying.
14:15Even the plug top's fucked.
14:17Buy a bicycle for a nice house somewhere on a nice estate with a nice small little garden and be done with it.
14:25You do not need this ag.
14:33A cup of coffee for me, Pip.
14:34What do you reckon?
14:36It's the only way me and Pip get a breather.
14:44I think people just see my Polaris now and just wave.
14:46I don't even know who they are.
14:48I'm trying to juggle everything, all the building works and doing the gentleman and everything else.
15:00It just wears you out and then I've got to go home and learn dialogue and get into the scene and the character and then get to work.
15:10Lately, I've been driving two or three hours every morning to work, two or three hours back.
15:15We did my mum's funeral yesterday, which was tough and I just...
15:25I've never, I've sort of, I've had to listen to myself a bit with the swinging.
15:34I really have kept swinging with this and I've let my sister deal with it and she done a good job.
15:42My sister done a good job. My mum's in a better place now, I think.
15:47She had a tough life, my mum.
15:49Yeah, she was in a home for four or five years growing up.
15:52I think there were some deep scars that my mum never dealt with.
15:58I'm not sure if I've had any closure with my mum, to be honest.
16:02I literally pulled up on set and my sister phoned me to say that mum had gone.
16:07It was quite a sudden heart attack.
16:09And, er, I processed it.
16:14Rather than the reactions, I kind of had the process.
16:19And I've been working and trusting the process.
16:23But I need a coffee to do it.
16:25And this is our local coffee, water and I'll...
16:28Say that.
16:34It's too much of a lump of your life to be able to move forward...
16:43...quickly, you know?
16:45I think my whole brain and body is still working out that me mum's gone.
16:54Right.
16:55Like me, my trout are gasping for a breather right now.
17:04So I've got patty on the sparks, fixing the aerators.
17:05And my hope's on Jenny number two working.
17:10Cos if it ain't got power, my fish are battered.
17:14What have you done, patty?
17:15Put a plug on.
17:16Don't go all that round, have you?
17:17Have you seen if that works?
17:18I can't see if it works.
17:19You should have plugged it in down there on the electrics.
17:20Oh, no.
17:21Oh, no.
17:22Didn't think of that.
17:23Oh, didn't think of that.
17:24Oh, didn't think of that.
17:25Thank fuck the actors here.
17:26Good.
17:27We're working.
17:28Yeah, but now we've got to see if this bloody thing works.
17:29Didn't you have a paddle one here last year?
17:30Oh, no.
17:31Didn't think of that.
17:32Oh, didn't think of that.
17:33Fuck the actors here.
17:34Yeah, but now we've got to go all that round, have you?
17:35Have you seen if that works?
17:36I can't see if it works.
17:37You should have plugged it in down there on the electrics.
17:41Oh, no.
17:42Didn't think of that.
17:43Oh, didn't think of that.
17:44Thank fuck the actors here.
17:47Good, we're working.
17:49Yeah, but now we've got to see if this bloody thing works.
17:52Didn't you have a paddle one here last year?
17:55That's in there, the little blue one.
17:57Where's the little blue one, patty?
17:58I couldn't find it.
17:59I don't know where it is.
18:00The one on the trailer, you tosser, with a great big lead on it.
18:05Look, you've got a screwdriver there, Pats.
18:07While we're fucking around with this, I'm going to go and get the blue one.
18:10Go on in.
18:11I'm going to get the other one, patty, that I know works,
18:13the one that you couldn't find.
18:17You've got to just grin and bear it like that.
18:19You've got to have, the cup has got to be half full.
18:24You look at this, where patty couldn't find it.
18:26Look, are you kidding me?
18:30Oh my God, do you know what I think he's done?
18:34Do you know what I think he's done?
18:37I think he's nicked the plug off it, not knowing it was on that.
18:42No way, he can't have done that.
18:45He has, there was a plug on there yesterday.
18:47Absolutely ridiculous.
18:49If you're not actually there, going that to there, that to there, it's a cock up.
19:01That might do. Tie it round there, see if we can put the thing on it.
19:04With a makeshift anchor on board to weigh down my aerator.
19:09I'm just hoping patty hasn't had another brainwave in my absence.
19:16Patty, I'm going to ask you something and I want you to answer me honestly.
19:20I know it's hard.
19:21Yeah, go on.
19:22I'd always tell the truth.
19:23Answer me one question.
19:24Did you cut a plug off something in the barn?
19:27Yeah.
19:30Do you know what you cut the plug off, you bellend?
19:33The other aerator that works.
19:35And you put it on one that don't work.
19:38Look, he's cut wobbly.
19:40He's cut the wire off this.
19:43That's the one you couldn't find, Pay.
19:46No, no, I didn't cut it off of this.
19:47Don't start lying.
19:48Here come the wires.
19:49No, no, no.
19:50That is bollocks.
19:51Where was that?
19:52Before you start lying, right, to cover up.
19:56That's fresh, you lying bastard.
19:59I didn't realise that.
20:00This is the only one that worked.
20:01What a load of tools.
20:04I try and put too much on people sometimes,
20:07but it's how I am.
20:10Hey, you know what I said?
20:11Got a three-pin plug.
20:12Yeah, yeah, he said.
20:13No, I had one plug in me.
20:14Well, why'd you nick my only one that works?
20:16Yeah, it was a nice cut.
20:17Nice and fresh.
20:19You're not running a race to get to the finishing line.
20:22It is a life process.
20:24Hang on a minute.
20:25Hang on a minute.
20:26The actor's bought a Thermalite block.
20:27Yes.
20:28It's probably going to float.
20:29Oh, that will.
20:30If that floats, I will show my arse in Harrod's window.
20:33Come on, put a four-way on it.
20:35I'm going to try, mate.
20:36I'm going to try.
20:37And it is, let's go, let's go.
20:39There's no reason to watch the clock.
20:41Wobbly, that's embarrassing.
20:42It's not.
20:43It's going to be perfect.
20:44You watch.
20:45It'll be perfect.
20:46Let's go.
20:47Let's get that done.
20:48Let's get that done.
20:49Look, let's just bodge it.
20:50Get it out there in the middle.
20:51Get it down, tie it off, and it's all ready.
20:53And all we've got to do is plug the bastard in.
20:54Right?
20:55Oh, dear.
20:56What have we got to do, Wobbs?
20:57As normal, don't let it beat us, son.
20:59What part of us is going out there in the boat?
21:04It's the same as life.
21:05How are you going to get to the end of your list if you, you know, if you don't push
21:09that bit harder?
21:10Look at that.
21:11The bollocks.
21:12He's away.
21:13Hey, you know what you've got to be careful is the lead has got to get to there, hasn't
21:18it?
21:19Come towards this way.
21:20Right.
21:21Throw it in there.
21:22Put your brick in first, wouldn't you?
21:24Well, I don't know how long the lead is, mate.
21:27He's going to go in a minute.
21:29Oof.
21:30Don't stand up, Wob.
21:31That's not the way to go.
21:33You're chancing it.
21:34Here goes the brick.
21:36Told ya.
21:37The brick's floated.
21:38Told ya, didn't I?
21:39It's a thermal light.
21:40Hang on.
21:41It might soak up some water.
21:42Let's see.
21:43You can't make this shit up.
21:44Well, have you got a plan to see?
21:45No.
21:46I'm out.
21:47I'm done.
21:48Well, listen.
21:49It's better than nothing.
21:51Should we just leave it for now?
21:52Get it going?
21:54See how it goes?
21:55Yeah.
21:56Why don't we try it?
21:57Why don't we try it?
21:59Why don't we try it?
22:01Why don't we try it?
22:03Why don't you try it?
22:05Why don't you try it?
22:07Why don't you try it?
22:10Why don't you try it?
22:11Why isn't it working, Wobb?
22:13I don't know.
22:14Here it goes!
22:15Here it goes!
22:16Hey!
22:17Look at that.
22:18We've got to weight it down.
22:20No, it'll just go round in circles.
22:21Will it?
22:22Yeah.
22:23Look at that.
22:24The old actor sorted it all out.
22:26It was down to me when I'd just run the lead out.
22:30I'd done the idea, though, innit?
22:31Hang on a minute.
22:32Why are you two taking all the credit?
22:34What about me?
22:35Didn't I have a little hand in this?
22:36You're a labourer, £80 a day.
22:38Hey, Wobbly, I'm loving a bit of that.
22:40I'd like to say job done.
22:43But with a lake this size, I need both aerators blowing.
22:47If me and my trow are going to breathe easy.
22:52Do that one.
22:53Yeah.
22:54And then we can put that green bastard in and all, can't we?
22:56This one does a big spray.
22:57Well, why don't we put one there and one up here?
23:00Yeah.
23:01Come on, Wobbs!
23:02Get in here, hang on.
23:04The door don't help, look at it.
23:05It's like a stick.
23:06Throw the anchor.
23:07Tie it on to the blue thing.
23:10Yeah, I'm going to.
23:11There you go.
23:12Well done, Wobb.
23:13There it goes.
23:15That'll do it.
23:17Hello, mate.
23:18Yeah, just having fun and games.
23:20I'm just on the lake.
23:21Me trout are dying, cos there's no oxygen, and then Patty cut me plug off.
23:24You don't know any good electricians, do you, Lou?
23:26With a fresh plug on, no thanks to Patty, it's time to give old Greeny a go.
23:33I think this would be alright cos the propeller's pointing down.
23:37This is a fountain.
23:38It's going to soak in.
23:39I don't think this will need time.
23:40You watch this when it turns it on.
23:41Turn it on and see what happens.
23:42Go on, go on, go on.
23:43Yeah, turn it on.
23:44Look, it'll soak in.
23:45What's this?
23:46What's this?
23:47Go on.
23:48Oh, you lucky bastard.
23:53Tell you what, mate, that's the dogs.
23:55Well done, Wobb.
23:56That's a good effort, son.
23:58Well, it's going to put oxygen in the water, innit?
24:00Yeah, well done, Wobb.
24:03Oh.
24:04Tripped?
24:05No, is the lead wrapping around it?
24:07I expect this is tripped.
24:11When you're taking on a project like this, there's unforeseens.
24:14When these problems happen, you're never prepared for it.
24:17So it's almost like he's constantly putting his hand in the dike
24:20to try and stop the flow of water.
24:22You know, you're trying to row a boat with one oar that's splitting half.
24:26Got his tester out, see if we're getting any voltage.
24:29Oh, no, no, look.
24:30Is that gone, is it?
24:31Yeah, it's burnt the lead out.
24:33I don't like it that two of them are on the same one.
24:36What can you do tomorrow, Petty?
24:38I'll put this onto a...
24:40A box?
24:41Straight onto a box, and then the box goes straight.
24:43The weak point's the plug, you see?
24:47Blondie!
24:48Han?
24:49Yeah?
24:50What are you doing?
24:51Oh, we're having nightmares.
24:52We're down by the lake, hun.
24:53These aerators keep blowing the fuses and everything.
24:56We've got everyone down there.
24:57Well, I'm trying to see what time you want your tea.
25:00Well, give me a time, man.
25:01What's the time now?
25:02I have no idea.
25:03Oh, it's six.
25:04It's quarter past six, boys.
25:05I'm like, this is mental.
25:07It is mental.
25:08My mum used to do that to me when I was seven years old at La Palette Road.
25:12Street lights used to come on, mum used to come out.
25:14Vincent?
25:15Used to hate it.
25:17Used to hate it.
25:18Same as when I used to hear Coronation Street.
25:21Da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
25:23Mum used to go, right, bed, and you go, oh, here it comes.
25:26Used to hate it, yeah.
25:27Right, put the dinner on, hun.
25:29I'll be about 20 minutes, all right?
25:31Okay, all right, fine.
25:32Okay, then.
25:33Bye, love.
25:34See you soon.
25:35Bye-bye, bye-bye.
25:36Dinner calls, Patty.
25:37Cheers, son.
25:38Cheers, brother.
25:39Good effort, but you are shit.
25:40Thanks to me, we've got a bit of aeration.
25:42I've saved some of the trout.
25:49With the farm in full swing, and my manor house teaming with tradies,
25:55sometimes you've got to go further afield just to hear yourself think.
26:01You never know what you're going to see.
26:05I do me rounds kind of every night.
26:08Take the old binoculars.
26:13Never, never know what you're going to see.
26:17Right, what's this?
26:19Lake house, not good.
26:20Camera.
26:21Okay, I've got a little video here.
26:23Oh, here we go.
26:25And it looks like the goats have found their way out.
26:27I knew I'd get involved with the goats.
26:29Let's go.
26:30Goats are out, Pip.
26:31Do a little bit of goat herding, shall we?
26:35Parking his goats in their overnight pen,
26:38Wobbly's pathway wrecking crew have made their great escape.
26:43Oh, there.
26:44Look at that.
26:47What do you reckon, Pip?
26:48Go on, then.
26:49Let's go and round them up.
26:51Okay.
26:52This ain't in my job description, as it goes.
26:54Right, you little buggers.
26:56Come on.
26:57I like goats...
27:00in a curry.
27:02Come on.
27:04Come on.
27:05We've got a nice place down the road here.
27:06A wild goat in a curry is very good.
27:09Here, come here and they'll follow you.
27:11Come on.
27:13Come, Pip.
27:14Here, here.
27:15They're interested in Pip.
27:16Watch out, Pip.
27:17They'll head back you.
27:20Come on, then.
27:21Here, here, Pip.
27:22Here, here.
27:23Here.
27:24Come on.
27:25There's a good girl.
27:26Come on, you buggers.
27:28Do you need help?
27:29They were following Pip around, so I was using her as a decoy.
27:32Come on.
27:33That's got it.
27:34It's all about the grub.
27:35Don't overfeed them.
27:36They should be in the pen, shouldn't they?
27:38They're all having a piss stop.
27:40It was your idea to get goats.
27:42No, it wasn't.
27:43It was.
27:45The goat idea was nothing to do with me at all.
27:49The chaos that is all around us is all down to Mr. Jones.
27:55Call Wobbly.
27:59What?
28:00How you doing?
28:01Your goats are out, Wobbly, and I can't get them in.
28:03Come on.
28:04Good goatee.
28:05You're bringing me to come and help you get the goats in?
28:07Absolutely, Wob.
28:08He's only up the road, hon.
28:09Can't you just help me try and herd them back in?
28:11Go on.
28:13There you are.
28:14Go on, love.
28:15Get in there.
28:16Hey!
28:19Go on, love.
28:20Go in there.
28:21Well done.
28:22Must have been me.
28:23They know I don't like them.
28:27Go on.
28:29Bollocks.
28:30Here he is.
28:31Come on, Wob.
28:32What you done to me goats?
28:33Well, go on then.
28:34I'll stay out of the way then.
28:35Where's those ropes?
28:36Where's the ropes, hon?
28:39That's it.
28:40That's it.
28:41See?
28:42That's the one.
28:43The white one.
28:44Get hold of this one.
28:45Then you've got half a chance.
28:46Right, hold on then.
28:47Yeah, she's the boss.
28:48If you can get her, the others do follow.
28:50Come on.
28:52Mine is orange.
28:54Come on, you.
28:55Here, Wobbs.
28:56Go on, mate.
28:58Come on.
28:59Ow!
29:00Don't!
29:01Buggers.
29:02Oh.
29:03Oh, she's taking her back for it.
29:05Well done, love.
29:06Yeah, she wants to come in now then.
29:07Right.
29:08Come on.
29:09Come on.
29:10That's it.
29:11Hooray.
29:12I am the goat man.
29:14Capricorn, see?
29:15High five.
29:16Cheers, Wobbly.
29:17Cheers, Wobbly.
29:20Well, I was told that they can get out of anything, and they proved me right.
29:26Obviously, what they've done is they've pushed against it, and they've done that.
29:29And it was literally, that was enough.
29:31One's out.
29:32They're all out.
29:33Put that in there like that.
29:35That ain't gonna get out of there now, are they?
29:39Hopefully, that'll hold them in.
29:41The little sausages.
29:43Obviously, my goat pen building skills were not good enough at the time.
29:50The goat pen's not the only thing that's taken a batter in.
29:54I managed to chuck me trout a lifeline yesterday, but they're not out of the hot water just yet.
30:00Oli, Kerry, can you put them two big concrete blocks in the back here?
30:05Well done, mate.
30:06That'll sink, will it?
30:07We'll go and see Patty quickly, then.
30:09We've got our drama down the lake.
30:12If I don't rescue them, I'll put carp up there, because they're harder.
30:15Carp are more tougher fish.
30:18Trout are kind of prima donnas.
30:20They're Premier League.
30:21They're your Man City, Man United, and the carp are a little bit like me in Wimbledon.
30:25My aerators have blown two Jennys already, so Patty's working his magic to find a more permanent solution.
30:34Rather than run out leads, because of the distance, we're losing so much voltage that we've now got to run out an armoured cable to run these two aerators.
30:46And it's all going to be done properly.
30:50I'm going to go and see what Patty's doing.
30:52Hopefully he's got this lake sorted out now.
30:55If I don't do it today, I'm going to lose these trout otherwise.
31:00It's working.
31:02God, that's the nuts, innit?
31:05Well done, Patty boy.
31:07I'm in shock.
31:13Well done, son.
31:14That is a gold star for Patty, alright?
31:16Come on, Pip.
31:17Well done, son.
31:22With the aerators flowing on full power, my trout can finally catch a breath.
31:27So this is where I first saw it.
31:32Come down here.
31:33This is the shallow end.
31:35There's a trout over there.
31:36Come up, look.
31:38Well, they look a lot more happier now, I've got to say.
31:41Saved the day.
31:42Well done.
31:43Our job here is done.
31:44Took two or four blokes work and 500 quid in cables to save a couple of trout.
32:00Wayward goats and gasping trout have given me the right run around.
32:05So when it comes to chaperoning a doggy blind date,
32:09you can count me out.
32:11Big day today.
32:14We are going to see if Pippa is feeling it with Ted.
32:20If she wants to have puppies, then now's the time.
32:24So we're all here, patiently anticipating Wags and Ted's arrival.
32:33Me old mate Wags pride and joy.
32:36Oh, my gosh.
32:38Is Ted.
32:39I actually feel very sick.
32:41Ted, come on.
32:43OK, here's Ted.
32:45Pippa, what do you think?
32:47This long-haired Lothario has fathered quite a few litters around here.
32:51But we won't hold that against him.
32:53Yet.
32:55Oh, my goodness.
32:57Father Ted.
32:58He seems like a good, honest, solid chap.
33:02She likes him.
33:03She likes Ted.
33:04It was very sweet, actually.
33:05They sort of skip around together.
33:10She seems ready anyway.
33:12Oh, wag.
33:13Do you know what you're doing?
33:15I'm not doing it.
33:16Ted's doing it.
33:17It's all natural.
33:18That's what you're doing.
33:19Oh, my gosh.
33:20I can't even look.
33:24She's playing hard to get.
33:26She's playing hard to get just to feel good in herself.
33:29If she was just to stand there and he was to jump on in the first 30 seconds, what does that say about a bitch?
33:39Oh.
33:40Oh, my gosh.
33:42And it's as easy as that.
33:43Oh, okay.
33:44She's...
33:47I can never unsee this now.
33:50I wish I hadn't have looked.
33:51At least Ted hasn't got stage fright.
33:54Has he?
33:56Father Ted's got the minerals.
34:00She's out of view now, so...
34:03We may be lucky.
34:05Okay.
34:06How do we know?
34:08We're waiting for the hallelujah moment.
34:10Okay.
34:12I've done my bit.
34:13I've given it up to the gods.
34:15Yeah, it's...
34:17I'm...
34:19I'm a little bit like...
34:25Thank you so much.
34:28After laying out time and money on me trout, I need to see some results for all my efforts around here.
34:34And a goal's a goal.
34:37Come on, let's see what these goats have done, Pip.
34:41Mmm.
34:43Not that much.
34:45I don't think they're hungry enough.
34:47Listen, I've been to Ireland.
34:48There's wild goats.
34:49They survive in all weathers, all terrains.
34:53We've got to be a bit harder on these goats.
34:55They need a proper kick up their arses.
35:01Come on, Pip.
35:02Right, Wobbs.
35:03Yo.
35:04It's too easy street, mate.
35:05We can't be feeding them here, feeding them nuts.
35:09Unless we knock all this on the edge, we're going to be here weeks and weeks and weeks.
35:12They're just picking off the little leafs, aren't they?
35:14And they're not really...
35:15No.
35:16Goats go through everything.
35:17That was what my plan was.
35:18Let's give them one more chance.
35:20Otherwise, it's going to be Operation Vinnie and I'm going to get some big monsters in here.
35:25Things are going to change around here, goat boys.
35:27Only Belmars Prison and not Hotel California, Wobbly, please.
35:32No way.
35:33All right.
35:34Wobbs, you know the alternative, son.
35:36Yeah.
35:37Back on the building.
35:38Yeah, I know.
35:39And you don't want that.
35:40I know.
35:41So I would get these little bastards doing their job if I was you, Wobbly.
35:43If these boys don't do what they do, I'm back on the spanner.
35:48Just saying, Wobb.
35:53Wobb's wrecking crew have had their munching orders.
35:56Clear a path or clear off.
35:59Don't let me down, boys.
36:02While the beasts take the burden, I can almost take a breather.
36:06And the perfect way to unwind is fishing with friends.
36:11Old mates or new.
36:14We've had a call.
36:16Rag and bone man has bought a place near here with a few acres and he loves the show.
36:23That's a feather in our cap, really, you know.
36:25It'll be interesting to spread a bit of knowledge with him.
36:32Here he is. All right, mate?
36:33All right, mate.
36:34See you coming on the old camera there.
36:36I didn't know you were so big.
36:37I had my week a bit.
36:38Big old boy.
36:39Big old boy.
36:40You've been seeing the show then, have you?
36:42Vinny loves Scar.
36:43He loves rockabilly.
36:45So I was quite surprised that he knew who Rag and bone man was because I didn't know he was quite current.
36:49Nice to have a day off, innit?
36:50Yeah, lovely.
36:51Yeah, come on, mate.
36:52Come on.
36:53Let's go.
36:54There.
36:55There she is.
36:56There you go.
36:57Just about getting it.
36:59Let's go and have a look round then.
37:01Lovely jubbly.
37:02A country boy at heart, like me, Rory's put down roots away from the hustle and bustle.
37:12So you've got a small hole in now, have you?
37:14Yeah, basically, I moved to London for a bit and then I ended up moving back.
37:19And the sort of hectic lifestyle I have now, I see that gate of my house and I'm like, I'm good.
37:26I'm all right now.
37:27Yeah, yeah.
37:28You know what I mean?
37:29Shut the gate.
37:30We ain't got a lot of space, but there's a couple of acres.
37:32You need somewhere where you can just feel that peace.
37:37He wants that tranquility now.
37:39And he wants to raise his family privately.
37:41And that's what happens.
37:42The more your celebrity status gets bigger, the more you enclose the area you're in.
37:50See that little spindly tree right over the back there on its own?
37:53Yeah.
37:54There.
37:55That's where we start.
37:56Go right through this valley now.
37:58And what it does, the belly gets bigger and bigger.
38:00Yeah.
38:01But it's kind of enough, you know?
38:03Do you know what you need?
38:04You need 30 acres.
38:06That's it.
38:07I was just going to say 20 plus.
38:09He's definitely opening Pandora's box.
38:12Look what's happened with me.
38:13You know, you've got a bit here.
38:15Then they ring you up and you buy that.
38:17And then all next door, where do you stop?
38:24What's up, son?
38:26Need some wood.
38:27Got a guest of honour here, the old rag and bone man.
38:29You didn't recognise him, did you?
38:31How you doing, mate?
38:32All right.
38:33What are you here for?
38:34Just have a little look around, you know?
38:35Do a bit of fishing, hopefully.
38:36Are you a fisherman?
38:37Yeah.
38:38Oh, lovely.
38:39Well, when you want to sing a song, mate, I'm up there.
38:41So if you want to come and get your guitar out.
38:43Show me the way to go home.
38:45I'm tired and I want to go home, I'll tell you that.
38:49Lovely to meet you.
38:50Really, really nice.
38:51Keep up the good work.
38:52And I hope you catch a few.
38:53All right, boy.
38:54See you later.
38:55All right.
38:56So, I'll carry on working while he goes and plays.
38:59Lovely, isn't it?
39:00Nice.
39:03There'll be no playing, Wobbs.
39:05Not with my reputation on the line.
39:08I've had Gazza down here and I've had Whitehouse down here.
39:12They've both blanked.
39:14While my prima donna trout deserve a celebratory rest on the subs bench...
39:19Right, Mark?
39:20I know my rough and ready carp are always up for a tackle.
39:24I need you to prove that they are in there.
39:27Because Shyhouse, who's got his own show, his own fishing show, couldn't catch.
39:33I've got me old school mate, Mark, on the rods.
39:36Dobber's caught more fish than I've had at Subbers.
39:39That one's about there.
39:40You know what you're doing right now.
39:41So Rory's in with a chance to outdo me old mate, Mr Whitehouse's efforts, last summer.
39:47If we catch one, he'll absolutely be gutted.
39:51Good luck, lads.
39:54You spend a lot of time down there.
39:58I do.
39:59I come down there nearly every night, see what's about, watch the deer and all that.
40:03You kind of get a figuration of how it all works, you know what I mean?
40:07And if I can kind of make it pay, doing a couple of events.
40:12Yeah.
40:13I mean, you know what, we could do it.
40:15I thought about a little festival.
40:16I could put a little festival on, couldn't I, just thinking that earlier on.
40:19The little stays down there are a little beautiful.
40:21Wouldn't it?
40:22You can imagine that, you know what I mean?
40:26I did a charity once for my little local football team where I started.
40:30Yeah.
40:31Where I started playing, you know like under 10s, under 12s.
40:34And I got Sister Sledge, do you remember them?
40:35Yeah.
40:36Seven grand.
40:37And I had them at our local football club.
40:40Yeah.
40:41And we raised 35 grand.
40:42And that kept the football club going.
40:43Amazing.
40:44You know, all the shirts and everything for the season.
40:46It was good.
40:48I say it's similar, but it ain't.
40:50I got offered quite a decent amount of money to do one of those corporate gigs.
40:54I was like, I don't really want it if I'm honest.
40:56And then I saw the money and I was like, yeah, I think I'll do it.
41:01Yeah.
41:02Hold on a minute.
41:03They said, oh, by the way, it's you and Jamiroquai.
41:06Like back in the day, I was a massive Jamiroquai fan.
41:08Yeah.
41:09So I was like, I get paid loads of money for doing this and I get to see Jamiroquai.
41:12Yeah.
41:13Well, we was on first.
41:14I played to about 30 people.
41:16By the time Jamiroquai got on, he played to three people sitting at a table and a kid at the front.
41:22No.
41:23There was no one there.
41:24No way.
41:25So I basically had a private Jamiroquai gig.
41:28It was insane.
41:29There you are.
41:30There you are.
41:31Go on.
41:32Go on.
41:33On that middle way.
41:34Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait.
41:35Nah.
41:36That proper went down.
41:38Oh, I'm going to absolutely give it to White House if we catch one.
41:42Come on, you bastard.
41:44If there's one lesson I've learned over the years, when it comes to fishing, there's no
41:54fast lane.
41:58That floats bobbing a little bit.
42:00You've seen it?
42:01Yeah, I'm keeping my one eye on it.
42:03There is a bit of movement on it.
42:06I think just being by the water sometimes is enough.
42:09Yeah?
42:10It's calming.
42:11You know, you're fishing and you're outdoors for me is me mental health release.
42:15Yeah.
42:16You know, because recently I lost me mum and it helped going all through it.
42:22You know, I've dealt with it better with me mum.
42:27How old was your mum when she passed?
42:2980, I think.
42:3080?
42:31Yeah.
42:32But it still hit you?
42:34You're just like that, aren't you?
42:35You're just like, fuck it now.
42:36Yeah.
42:37Well, you've been through it all, haven't you?
42:38Yeah.
42:39But you're younger than me, you see.
42:40Yeah.
42:41My mum was only 69.
42:42That's ridiculous.
42:43Didn't even make 70.
42:46This thing about keep swinging.
42:48I want to keep busy and I want to keep doing things, but that doesn't mean I have to be
42:53running full blast around this lake.
42:55Yeah.
42:56I could walk around this lake and sit here like this and have a chill.
42:58The more you can do that, the more you like yourself.
43:01Yeah.
43:02And I think it is about taking up other activities like your fishing.
43:07I'm always just scared of slowing down with work because I don't know what I'll do with
43:12myself.
43:13But then I, then look what you're doing now.
43:16Yeah, exactly.
43:17You could do this all day long.
43:18Yeah.
43:19You know what I mean?
43:20The hardest thing for me was when the dressing room door shuts on you.
43:23Yeah.
43:24Oh, baby.
43:25That's the left hand one.
43:26That's you.
43:27That's all you.
43:28Come on, son.
43:29I had massive anxieties when I got into my 30s.
43:34Yeah.
43:35Because I knew the crack would end.
43:37There was no dressing room.
43:38I had 30, 40 blokes you were just bantering with and just smashing it with.
43:43Our jobs now can go on forever.
43:46Yeah.
43:47That's where we're lucky.
43:48That's where you're lucky and I'm lucky now.
43:49Yeah.
43:50We're nearly on.
43:51Did you see it?
43:52Look, look, look.
43:53Watch it.
43:54The middle one.
43:55On the float.
43:56Went right down.
43:57Oh, come on.
43:59This is what happened with me and Paul.
44:01We kept getting, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee.
44:04I've got to beat the guy that's got his own fishing show.
44:07We have, yeah.
44:09Have you had struggles with it then?
44:11Have you had your own struggles?
44:13I think I got to a, probably sort of like four or five years ago.
44:18And I was like, what do you mean mental health?
44:21We didn't know.
44:22I didn't know.
44:23No, I didn't.
44:24I had periods where I felt like sort of a bit down or whatever, but I just didn't really
44:27put that down to anything other than just being in a mood or whatever.
44:31But I think the thing that I struggled with was a lot to do with being out in public and
44:41also being someone that is really easily recognisable.
44:44It's not as if I could put a hat on and hide behind a tree, do you know what I mean?
44:48That's impossible.
44:49We live in that culture now where everybody wants a picture of everything.
44:52We'd rather shut the gates.
44:54I've been in it in the public eye probably, I don't know, since 1986.
44:58This kind of stuff, this privacy stuff, you've got to try and find enough of it.
45:02You know what I mean?
45:03So this is like my space and I'll bring my mates in.
45:07It's not me going to the public.
45:09It's me bringing people in and then I can control it.
45:12Yeah.
45:13And...
45:14Sorry, Pete.
45:16Sorry.
45:17Summit's got to have it.
45:18That went right under again.
45:21And it is simple things.
45:23It's about spending time like this that don't cost nothing.
45:26You know what I mean?
45:27Same as the dog.
45:28You know what I mean?
45:29I don't spend anything on her, but it's the most loyal little thing you can have on the
45:33planet.
45:34You know what I mean?
45:35More than my fish.
45:37Yeah.
45:38I don't think we're going to catch the fish today, you know.
45:41Do you?
45:42Well, I've been in this situation before with Mr. Paul's shite house.
45:47But I reckon we can give it a few more minutes.
45:50Yeah.
45:52Go on!
45:53Go on, my son!
45:55We're in!
45:56Go on, my son!
45:58There it is.
46:01Look at the size of that.
46:02That's a big fish.
46:03Look at that!
46:04This could be your biggest ever, Roar.
46:06Yeah.
46:07Take your time, son.
46:09How's that feel, mate?
46:11I'm so happy.
46:12I didn't think I was going to get one today.
46:14Oh, yes.
46:15Oh, my God!
46:16Woo!
46:19Well done, son.
46:20Look at that!
46:22Oh, my God.
46:23Oh, that's beautiful.
46:24Oh!
46:25Well, yeah, I'm over the moon.
46:27The old singer pulled in the 19-pounder.
46:30Thanks very much.
46:31And it would take Rory a long time to catch one that big again.
46:35Because they're good fish.
46:38That's it.
46:39Good old boy.
46:40Well done.
46:4119-pound.
46:42Cheers, mate.
46:43Come in this summer.
46:44There we go.
46:45There you go.
46:46Wobbs gets tooled up.
46:47Wobbs to the rescue again.
46:48So, we start the next project.
46:49Whoa, whoa.
46:50That might an inch.
46:51My old mate joins the crazy gang.
46:52Hello.
46:53Oh, my God.
46:54You've come to join the asylum then, cosy, have you?
46:56And the chaos continues.
46:57It's a good start, isn't it?
46:58That paint job, cosy, is awful.
46:59It's one bollocking after another.
47:00I'm sure it's an April Fools or something.
47:01After another.
47:02I don't give a bollocks where you are.
47:03No, just listen to me.
47:04After another.
47:05Oh, my God.
47:06These are the things you find to see.
47:07It's the hole that you see.
47:08It's the hole that you see.
47:09It's the hole that you see.
47:10It's the hole that you see.
47:11So, we start the next project.
47:12Whoa, whoa.
47:13That might an inch.
47:14My old mate joins the crazy gang.
47:15Hello.
47:16Oh, my God.
47:17You've come to join the asylum then, cosy, have you?
47:19And the chaos continues.
47:20There you are.
47:21No, just listen to me.
47:22After another.
47:23Oh, my God.
47:24These are the things you find to see.
47:25It's the hole that you didn't create.
47:27Yeah, I better cancel the holiday.
47:28Hang on.
47:29You've got some babies in here.
47:31Hon, you're going to be busy.
47:33I've never had puppies before.
47:35Woo-hoo!
47:36You do get used to it in the end.
47:38This is why I get paid the big bucks.
47:50I'll see you next time.
47:51Bye.
47:52Bye.
47:53Bye.
47:54Bye.
47:55Bye.
47:56Bye.
47:57Bye.
47:58Bye.
47:59Bye.
48:00Bye.
