00:00THE END
00:50Come on, come on.
01:07Come on.
01:30There you are then.
01:32You are.
01:45Hello.
01:47Hello.
01:48Before you ask, come well.
01:50And you?
01:52Me too.
01:54Thank God for that.
01:56I need someone to talk to.
01:59It's a great old horse but a rotten conversationalist.
02:03It looks hard work.
02:04That gets you fit.
02:06And the horse.
02:07She was fit already.
02:10Is it a boy or a girl?
02:13What's all that?
02:14Well there's dandelions,
02:17beach leaves.
02:17What are you using for?
02:19What to eat?
02:20You're kidding.
02:21No.
02:22They're like cabbage but softer.
02:24May I?
02:25Have a dandelion leaf.
02:31Not bad.
02:32You can make a very drinkable liqueur out of them as well.
02:36That one's brook lime.
02:37Sort of watercress.
02:38Cure the gut with a sprig of mint.
02:40Sleep with your feet facing north.
02:41You're one of those.
02:42A real old crank in other words.
02:43I never said anything about old.
02:51Hello beauty.
02:53Work you hard does he?
02:55There you are you see.
02:56She doesn't even answer.
03:00Mushroom omelette cooked in beech nut oil.
03:03Little watercress and wild spinach.
03:06Some dandelion coffee.
03:07And a glass of beech nut oil.
03:10Now what do you say to that?
03:11Well first I'd say where then I'd say when.
03:16What do you know White Cross?
03:18I've heard of it.
03:19Oh it's about four miles down river.
03:21Down canal.
03:23That's uh...
03:24That's three locks.
03:25Oh as you say.
03:27Do you mind if I look around?
03:29No help yourself.
03:31Don't close any hatches or windows though will you?
03:33Why?
03:33Can't you get enough fresh air?
03:35Methyl alcohol.
03:36Where?
03:37Oh in some barrels.
03:38Let's offer heavy vapour.
03:39It's highly inflammable.
03:41And you don't fancy blowing yourself up?
03:43No not really.
03:44We got our own still.
03:46But we're not so posh.
03:47We call it wood alcohol.
03:49Oh really?
03:50We call it CH308 as a matter of fact.
03:54What else have you got in this travelling shop?
03:57Oh this and that.
03:59Grain.
04:00Spuds.
04:01Iron mongery.
04:02Wellington boots.
04:04I don't know where to get them from.
04:06Well we found this old house see.
04:08Vicarage it was.
04:10With this whacking great rubber tree plant in the hall.
04:12No?
04:13Sorry.
04:15How about an abandoned lorry and a lay-by off what was once the A40 loaded with boxes and boxes
04:20of brand new boots.
04:21Oh yes I'd buy that.
04:23That's the truth.
04:25The A40.
04:27I love that hat.
04:29Yes so do I.
04:30Keep your fingers off it.
04:32For our rights it should be covered in fish hooks.
04:34Why you big fishermen.
04:35I couldn't pull a packet of fish fingers out of a deep freeze let alone a canal.
04:41How about letting us have some of your wellies.
04:44Ah they're going to Woodkirk.
04:47How many pairs have you got?
04:4930 or 40.
04:50Oh they never miss half a dozen.
04:54Would they?
04:55Well.
04:56Oh go on be a devil.
04:58Would you throw in one of your dinners like you described?
05:02For you?
05:03Anytime.
05:05Okay you're on.
05:06Who knows you might like it so much you decide to stay.
05:09Who knows?
05:11What do your people need?
05:14Oh couple of male goats.
05:16Sugar beet.
05:17Some fruit trees among other things.
05:19Well we might be able to help.
05:21We've lots of dry bracken for bedding cattle on.
05:24Who hasn't?
05:27Meet me tomorrow then.
05:30Who's me?
05:32Oh John.
05:33John Millard.
05:35Pigeons call powder and horses call horse.
05:37I'm Mina.
05:39With an I.
05:40M-I-N-A.
05:41How'd you do Mina?
05:43How'd you do?
05:48Did your husband survive?
05:53No.
05:54Oh I'm sorry.
05:59Were you money?
06:00No no.
06:02Have you been a canal man all your life?
06:05Oh good lord no.
06:07No I used to work at Birmingham Airport.
06:09Marshaller.
06:10You know the blight with the earmuffs and the ping pong bats.
06:13Two years ago I was as deaf as a post.
06:16Couldn't hear a 747 let alone a thrush.
06:22Oh.
06:23Can you let me off here?
06:25Yes surely.
06:26Chuck us that rope will you?
06:29That's right.
06:30Now shove the home away from you.
06:31Right.
06:31The tiller away from you.
06:32That's it.
06:33That's the way.
06:35Hello.
06:37Oh love me I haven't stopped the horse.
06:39Horse!
06:40Whoa!
06:41Whoa!
07:07I must be home before it gets dark.
07:09It was nice meeting you Mina.
07:11See you tomorrow John.
07:12Yeah.
07:14Four miles you say.
07:16It'll probably be after lunch.
07:17Some of those locks in a terrible state.
07:19Oh that's all right.
07:20Well I look forward to seeing you.
07:22Me too.
07:26Hi!
07:29Oh painful?
07:31And then some.
07:32Would you like some milk?
07:33Oh please.
07:37Feeling lonely?
07:38Very.
07:40I bet you wish you went with the others now on the salt detail.
07:43Mmm.
07:46For whatsoever a man soweth,
07:49so also shall he reap.
07:52Well one thing's for sure.
07:54We shouldn't go short of cabbages.
07:56No not if we get some rain.
07:59No not if we get some rain.
08:15War!
08:16Come on.
08:18Meaner homeward plodding a weary way.
08:20Very weary.
08:22You know I warned you before.
08:24It's dangerous hitching lifts.
08:25I got news.
08:26Important news.
08:27Come on tell me all about it.
08:28Well I was four or five miles down the canal and I met a man with a barge.
08:32A water bus I suppose you call it.
08:34What fuel was he using?
08:35You see.
08:36You stop me before I've even started.
08:38But that's the sort of thing I need to know.
08:40Horsepower.
08:41What?
08:41The sort you lead on a rain.
08:43No the point is he had 30 or 40 pairs of boots.
08:46Wellington boots.
08:47Boots?
08:48Yes.
08:49Well he could do with some of those.
08:50That's what I told him.
08:51And what did he say?
08:52He's meeting us tomorrow.
08:53Train?
08:54Yes.
08:54Clever girl.
08:57Where did he manage to get hold of all these boots?
08:59A lorry in a lay-by.
09:01Oh it's true.
09:03That's a bit of luck.
09:04As long as they're not all left feet for four year old midgets.
09:07No.
09:14And where does he come from?
09:15This vulgar boatman of yours.
09:17Oh good lord.
09:18You know I never asked.
09:20That doesn't sound like you.
09:21No it's true.
09:25Oh Mina.
09:26Do you know something?
09:27Mm-hmm.
09:29That is the most suspicious thing I've heard in weeks.
09:37You're not frightened?
09:40No.
09:41So why is her lip trembling?
09:43I'm only teasing.
09:46Where'd you get it?
09:48Off that new fence.
09:49The one Jack put up for them went away.
09:52Right.
09:53Let's have a look.
09:55Ouch.
09:56Sting?
09:57Yes.
09:58Good.
09:58Supposed to.
09:59Good alcohol.
10:00You're not just a pretty face.
10:03Relax.
10:04Let your hand go loose.
10:08Where's my boyfriend?
10:10John.
10:11Who else?
10:11Reading.
10:12Water babies?
10:14No.
10:14We've finished that.
10:16Ouch.
10:17Voila.
10:18Oh you can be glad it wasn't down your thumbnail.
10:25There we are miss.
10:27A week's rest and you'll be able to play the violin again.
10:30I can't play the violin.
10:33Exactly my point Greg.
10:35The mill, the methane gas project.
10:38All these things can only happen when we've got size.
10:41More people, bigger division of labour.
10:43Exactly.
10:44It's the old industrial argument.
10:46Only the big companies could afford research.
10:48If you don't research you don't get big.
10:50Well that's all fine and dandy.
10:51Just as long as staying put and becoming big,
10:54don't become hands in themselves.
10:55Oh is that likely?
10:56Well it's possible.
10:57It's something you've got to guard against.
10:59The more fixed you become, the more reactionary you're going to find.
11:03Geriatric and unlimited?
11:04Yeah.
11:04No.
11:05There'll be kids here soon Greg.
11:06Another generation.
11:07The Johns.
11:08The Lizzy's.
11:08They'll all be moving out just as fast as they can,
11:10like Philip and Judy,
11:11unless we make it as attractive as possible.
11:13Oh by we, you mean me, don't you?
11:16How are your hands?
11:18My blisters have got blisters.
11:21Don't get sidetracked.
11:24You're pulling back Greg,
11:25is that what you're trying to say?
11:27Charles, this whole thing from the horror course onwards,
11:30it's all been a new lease of life for you.
11:32So?
11:34Well one day this settlement of yours is going to need a new leader.
11:37Someone younger.
11:38You?
11:38No, no, no.
11:39Someone younger, different generation entirely.
11:42I mean someone for whom, well this is the reality.
11:44They're not like you and me,
11:46rear mirror drivers forever looking backwards.
11:48So?
11:51So you've got to make this place attractive to young people.
11:54Because if you don't,
11:55it's going to end up like one of those south coast resorts.
11:57Just a bunch of pension books.
12:01Once things are removed.
12:02Thanks Ruth.
12:03Have you told Charles about the Wellington Boots?
12:05Mm-hmm.
12:06Well we'll stick a reception committee down by the canals tomorrow morning.
12:11Not so strong John.
12:13You throw yourself in.
12:14It's more of a whip action.
12:16Use your wrists more.
12:18Did women fish Greg?
12:19Well only for compliments.
12:21Well some did, but it was mainly a man's sport.
12:24Mina says there wouldn't have been any fish in here at all.
12:27Not in the old days.
12:28She's wrong.
12:30There have been what they call coarse fish.
12:32Dace, perch, bream, carp, even pike.
12:36Mina showed us a picture of a pike eating a swan.
12:39Oh, did she?
12:40That was nice of her.
12:41It was horrid.
12:43The pike got hold of the swan by its head.
12:46Yes, lovely, lovely.
12:46That's nice of you to tell me that.
12:52Did you know that well hedged land can support a thousand pairs of birds on every thousand acres?
12:57Don't you ever stop talking.
12:59Should I?
13:00Well fish have got ears, you know.
13:02Haven't got eyelids.
13:02Yeah, well the way you go yakking on, you'll never catch one to find out.
13:08Look!
13:12That's it.
13:13All right you two, you know what to do.
13:15Can't we stay and watch?
13:16No you can't.
13:17Now go on, there's a prize for the first one home.
13:18Only a first prize?
13:19Yes, only a first prize.
13:21What is the prize?
13:22Go on, run.
13:28It's here!
13:30What is it?
13:31The boat.
13:32Right, I'll be right with you.
13:33Is Greg there?
13:34Yes.
13:36Meena, the barge is here.
13:38Already?
13:39But he said after lunch.
13:40Well it's here.
13:41I've seen it.
13:45Aren't you coming?
13:46No.
13:47I must get some water, Chris.
13:48Now you run along.
13:56Welcome to White Cross.
13:58Oh, thank you uncle.
14:00I'm Jess Cain and my number two is Les Grice.
14:07Nice to meet you.
14:10Looks like we was expected.
14:11You were.
14:12Can we look after your horse for you?
14:13Oh my pleasure.
14:14He don't like me and I don't like him.
14:17Well maybe it's because it's a she.
14:19Maybe it is.
14:21Well can we offer you some hospitality?
14:24Sounds like a good idea, eh Les?
14:26Bring on the dancing girls.
14:27You don't mind if the kids look around do you?
14:29They've never seen anything like this before.
14:30Be my guest.
14:35Relax.
14:38The settlement's about half a mile from here.
14:40Oh I like the public instead.
14:41What's another half?
14:44Well you're going to Woodkirk I hear.
14:46Oh what big it is you've got uncle?
14:49It's not often a barge drops in on us.
14:51What do you call it?
14:51A barge?
14:52A water bus?
14:53Skylark.
15:10Smells good.
15:11Any ideas?
15:14That's not bad that.
15:17Gale beer.
15:18It's not safe to keep in a bottle.
15:20What you mean it might blow up?
15:22Great.
15:24Gale beer.
15:24Where have you been all my life?
15:27You can drink it a month after brewing.
15:30Tastes even better after the first frost.
15:32Like Brussels sprouts, eh?
15:34You say gale.
15:36Now what sort of gale's that?
15:37A sweet gale.
15:38It's the sort of shrub was used in brewing long before Hobbs.
15:40Oh you're a little fund of knowledge.
15:43Not really.
15:44This is Mina's province.
15:46Who's Mina?
15:47You met her yesterday.
15:49Oh did we?
15:51Yeah well I tell you it's been hectic couple of days.
15:56Well er, would you like to eat now or?
15:58Oh now.
15:59Or no time like the present.
16:02Right well erm, help yourself to some more beer.
16:05I'll be back in a minute.
16:11Gale beer.
16:16Can we eat?
16:17Yes it's all ready.
16:19You know it's a funny thing Charlie.
16:20I've seen one of those men before.
16:23Which one?
16:23The one with the hat.
16:25The one with the hat.
16:26Do you remember where?
16:27No.
16:28I can't place it.
16:31Who the hell's Mina?
16:32Mina?
16:33You remember Mina?
16:36The story of Mina began in the springtime.
16:39Easy Jath.
16:40Don't push your luck.
16:42Spoken like a true screw.
16:44Bit of bother coming up on sea wingers there Mr Grice.
16:48All those nasty maximum security men.
16:56Oh that's a good number this.
16:59Pigs.
17:00Cows.
17:01Enns.
17:01Cows geese.
17:02Sheds full of equipment.
17:04Soap.
17:06Some sort of gas I reckon.
17:08You've got eyes like x-ray machines.
17:11Abbey.
17:12You clock anything that's nickable.
17:15Here I like the welcome party.
17:17I had another one of those once.
17:19Welcome home Jeff Kane.
17:21Where'd you be?
17:23Borstal.
17:27Come on you two.
17:29Behaving like a couple of pirates.
17:31Come on.
17:57Stick them up.
18:02Now John just take your finger off that trigger.
18:05And point the gun away.
18:06It's not loaded.
18:07Never mind that.
18:09Now take your finger off the trigger and point the gun away.
18:14That's better.
18:14It's not loaded.
18:18It's all right John.
18:19It's all right.
18:19Never mind.
18:20At least you did what you were told.
18:22It's all right.
18:22I didn't think anyone else had any more bullets.
18:26I didn't think anyone else had any more bullets.
18:52I haven't even begun.
18:54I haven't even scratched the surface.
18:57Acres are the best substitute for ancestry.
18:59I don't know who said that.
19:00But it was-
19:00I think it was you actually, Charles.
19:02Was it?
19:04One of my purple moments.
19:07Well, gents.
19:08I don't like to rush you.
19:09But when do we talk business?
19:12Have we any business to talk?
19:15I hope so.
19:16Yeah, well like I said, you were well briefed.
19:19Well you are going on to Woodkirk, aren't you?
19:21Oh, so you tell me.
19:22Mrs McGregor.
19:24Suddy Farm.
19:24She'll drive a lot harder bargain than we will.
19:26And we drive the hardest bargain of the lot.
19:31Well, obviously I don't want to interfere with anybody else.
19:33Oh, obviously not.
19:34All white, kosher gentlemen here, aren't we?
19:36Old stool tie on the square and all that.
19:38Yes.
19:40The voice of my conscience.
19:42Perhaps you should listen to it more often.
19:46That sounded less than friendly, Uncle.
19:49What would you say, Les?
19:51Skipping.
19:53Oh, easy going old Les.
19:54Famous for it.
19:56Well, look, why don't we just see if we can come to a deal?
19:59Ah, sounds all right by me.
20:01Yeah, but it's me that's to sound all right by.
20:05Well, I understand you want some goats. Male goats.
20:07No, what we want them for?
20:09Breeding.
20:10No.
20:11Not that desperate yet, are we, Les?
20:14Well, obviously we've been misinformed.
20:16Obviously.
20:18Sugar beet?
20:19Never touch the stuff.
20:20Now, gale beer, that'd be different.
20:22Well, it's no problem.
20:23And you wouldn't have a box of cigars lying around anywhere, would you?
20:28No, I'm sorry.
20:29Look, have you got a short list of the stuff that you need?
20:31Oh, surely.
20:32Any spare blankets?
20:34Well, we'll have a look for you.
20:36Binoculars?
20:37No.
20:39What have we got that you want?
20:41Well, obviously it's not the alcohol.
20:43We've solved that problem for ourselves, but...
20:45Well, the Wellington boots?
20:47We could do with about ten pairs of those.
20:49Oh, I think we could manage that, don't you?
20:52Depends.
20:53Well, if not ten pairs, then eight, six.
20:56Yeah, maybe.
20:57Here, can you put us up for a night?
21:00Um, yeah, yes, yes, of course.
21:02You can go in the treehouse.
21:04Yeah, why not?
21:05Yeah, then we can, you know, take a walk round, see who takes off...
21:09...what takes off fancy.
21:12Well, I think we ought to push off.
21:13Relax.
21:15They'll be expecting till we have...
21:16Oh, real worry, Gats.
21:18I'll be down by the canal later on.
21:20Yeah, well, help yourself. Ten pair.
21:21Thanks.
21:23Just a point of interest.
21:25How is it you've still got shotgun ammunition?
21:29Point of interest?
21:31How did you know?
21:33The little boy fired a shot.
21:35Well, that should have taught him something.
21:56They'll expect to hear from him.
21:58What, a quick thirty seconds after six o'clock?
22:00You know what I mean?
22:01A bloke sails off with a boatload of goods.
22:03Couple of days, they're bound to start worrying about him.
22:05Wouldn't take you two days, would it?
22:07Look, what you've got to think about is the months of hard labour,
22:10the graft, sweat, capital.
22:12Well, we were lucky, weren't we?
22:15John!
22:19Oh, sorry.
22:20I thought you were John Millen.
22:22Where is he?
22:23John.
22:25Oh, you didn't come with a water bus?
22:27Yeah, we did.
22:29Well, John, see, you had to go back.
22:32Back?
22:33Yeah, to the settlement.
22:35Well, that was certain.
22:37Very.
22:37Yeah, we took over from him.
22:39Why?
22:40Why what?
22:41Well, why'd he have to go back?
22:43Domestic.
22:44What's that mean?
22:45Well, he's woman, see, she was took sick.
22:47Yeah, colitis.
22:50I see.
22:51Do you, er, you know him, do you?
22:53Yes.
22:54I was a good man, John, eh, Les?
22:56Ah, one of the best.
22:59Did he send any message?
23:01Well, that depends on who you are, love.
23:03Mina.
23:05Wouldn't he say anything?
23:07Yeah, he did.
23:08Er, he said, er...
23:10What was it he said, Les?
23:12Er, he told you, didn't he?
23:15Yeah, er, he said, erm, not to worry and he'd see you next time.
23:19Next time?
23:20Yeah, that's right.
23:21Well, nothing else.
23:22Sorry.
23:23Well, like you said, it was all so sudden.
23:29What's wrong?
23:31Why are you wearing his hat?
23:36You got more questions than a dog got fleas.
23:38Why?
23:40Ah, the, er, Donald Schwab.
23:42Yeah, that's right.
23:43Exchange is no rubbery.
23:44He took my poncho.
23:44I took his hat.
23:45Satisfied?
23:50You know, this is like kitting out a foot fetish's parlour.
23:54Sorry.
23:55That's all right.
24:02You know, I used to drink this stuff.
24:05Oh, which, the beer or the wood alcohol?
24:06The beer.
24:08Tweeds, a pipe, a couple of glasses of bitter,
24:11and hope they wouldn't notice the dog collar.
24:12Did it work?
24:14No, it takes time.
24:15It was like having a horn in the middle of my forehead
24:18and trying to pretend it wasn't there.
24:20Yeah, I'll bet it was.
24:22No, you drink that other stuff, you'd be lucky to survive.
24:25It's as strong as that.
24:26Mm.
24:27Blinds you.
24:29Then kills you.
24:31I'll stick to milk.
24:32Much safer.
24:40I'll try.
24:42But I don't think I'm gonna like little Mina.
24:44So it was John, eh?
24:46Yeah, some say good old John.
24:48And some say nothing at all.
24:50What's that mean?
24:52It means I think we should go.
24:54Go.
25:12Oh, bones, don't it?
25:14Yeah, as it rots, it gives off a kind of gas.
25:17Hey, could you use it as a sort of fuel?
25:21I don't see why not.
25:23Power from that pump.
25:24Soap.
25:26Gas.
25:29And, er...
25:30This.
25:32Oh, where'd you get that?
25:35Still waters.
25:36Eh?
25:51Come in.
25:52You all right?
25:55Thank you for the water, Chris.
25:56Welcome.
25:58What's wrong?
26:00Nothing.
26:02That water bus.
26:04What about it?
26:05When I met it yesterday, there was one man with it.
26:08John.
26:09And now there are two.
26:11Two different men.
26:12Is that all?
26:14Yes.
26:18There'll be scores of explanations.
26:19Why didn't you ask them?
26:20I did.
26:22What did they say?
26:22That John's wife, his woman, was taken ill.
26:26They replaced him?
26:27Yes.
26:28Sounds credible enough.
26:29No, he doesn't have a wife.
26:30He told me.
26:32Maybe he didn't want you to know.
26:35Why?
26:36I don't know.
26:39Have you fallen for him?
26:43Fool.
26:44You make it sound like true confessions.
26:47I...
26:49I liked him.
26:52Don't read too much into it, love.
26:54No, perhaps not.
26:58One of them...
27:00was wearing his hat.
27:04Last Tuesday and Wednesday I wore your old skin.
27:06No, that's different.
27:07That was because of the storm.
27:09Doesn't alter the fact.
27:24You only see that valley there.
27:25There's a canal.
27:36Whoa!
27:37Did those men object to your going aboard the boat on your own?
27:41Well, if they did, they didn't say so.
27:43Did you look around?
27:45Well, there isn't all that much to look around.
27:47Well, could there be someone else on board?
27:50Well, to be honest, I didn't look that closely, but...
27:53I wouldn't have said so, no.
27:55Like I told you, I met just the one man.
27:58And neither of those two is him.
28:00Well, whoever they are, they've got a miniature arsenal on board.
28:11Come on.
28:12Come on.
28:19Wide open.
28:21Begging to be done like those desirable bijou residences.
28:25With everyone sitting goggling with the bedroom window on the latch
28:28or the back door open for tittles.
28:31Hey, was that how you started? Creeping?
28:34It was never this easy.
28:36Did you ever get a regular job?
28:38Nah, what for?
28:39See, I never had no time for the 9-5 Brigade.
28:42You see them all streaming home in their HP jam jars
28:44with a nodding dog in the back window and the paper snot rags in the front.
28:48Peasants.
28:49See, and now they're all here,
28:51pretending it's some jolly outward bound camp.
28:53The Duke of Edinburgh will be popping in with a few of his awards.
28:56Yeah.
28:58At least villains had something to rabbit on about.
29:00Life had a bit of taste to it, a bit colour.
29:03Tempo and excitement.
29:06Was your old man bent?
29:08So straight you could rule lines by him, poor sucker.
29:12All he hit every year I got out of it was poverty.
