Short filmTranscript
00:01The 1980s heroin epidemic that seized Leeds and Bradford catapulted Keith Eckersley to the top of the criminal underworld.
00:08Bound by blood and fuelled by violence, Eckersley and his four sons built an illicit empire that would give the
00:14Eckersley name
00:14a currency all of its own in the shadow economy of West Yorkshire.
00:18Tales of murder, extortion, international drug trafficking and the disappearance of two servant police officers
00:24sealed Eckersley's formidable reputation far beyond the city in which he operated
00:29and a dark secret was rumoured to lurk inside the walls of the Eckersley family home.
00:34In 1990, Eckersley's wife of 18 years, Janet, disappeared without trace, leaving behind her four adult sons and her nine
00:43-year-old daughter.
00:44Excuse me. Hey, can I see something about my hand please?
00:48Can you tell me what's happened?
00:49See, I've, erm, hit something, somebody. It happened about two, three hours ago.
00:55I'll take your name and date, Bert.
00:56Yeah, it's Catherine Eckersley, 16th of February, 1981.
01:00Alright.
01:05Address?
01:06It's Upper Crofting Hall, Green Lane, Rippenden. HX690i.
01:11Okay, thank you. Take a seat please.
01:21Is Nisha gonna be alright?
01:23What have you done?
01:25Oh, I put a bus on me under.
01:26How?
01:27Hit someone.
01:29What for?
01:32Alright.
01:38What were you doing?
01:39Is Nisha gonna be alright?
01:41Well, she's still in resource, but still don't know anything.
01:46What happened?
01:48You know, I've got a criminal record, don't you, because you told Jess.
01:50If she was giving you a job, I thought she should know.
01:52So what happens if I just smack this fella in the mouth?
02:00Yeah.
02:10So hang on, this is Tom's wife's dad?
02:14Yeah.
02:15I walked away once, but he followed me.
02:18To presume to tell me.
02:20I hoped to tell Tom, who his father was, when he knows nothing about it.
02:24Like, it's that simple.
02:35I was 12 years old, Holly.
02:39I was 12 years old, and I was fucked, repeatedly, for months.
02:45By three blokes, one of whom is Tom's dad.
02:49How could you tell someone that your father is one of three folks who would fuck a 12-year-old?
02:56I haven't even told Beth.
02:59How could I tell her that?
03:01That's where this boy that she loves,
03:04that she spent years of her life bringing up came from.
03:07I mean, it would break her heart, wouldn't it?
03:11And what would it do to him if he do that?
03:13And then this fella just glimply says that, like I haven't even thought about it.
03:20It's savage between whether he would like to fuck me or not.
03:33So, do you want to talk about what happened when you were 12?
03:36Oh, okay.
03:38Well, I think it sounds like this Graham would be pretty stupid to report what's happened to the police because
03:46-
03:46Yes, but if he does, I've stuffed on her.
03:50Because I've got previous.
03:51Did anyone else hear what he said to you?
03:54No.
03:56Everyone's told me smacking one of them, but no.
03:58He said it so no one else would hear him.
04:01Oh, hey, my God.
04:03Do I look like someone who wants to get fucked up by some slimy old shitbag?
04:08I must do.
04:09It's not about you, though, is it?
04:11When men say things like that, it's about whatever deluded crap goes on inside their tiny minds.
04:16What does he think happens next, sir?
04:17He doesn't...
04:18He just thinks we're going to carry on being one big happy family.
04:21I'm tempted to say, I think you did the right thing.
04:24Except...
04:26What he did isn't a criminal offence, whereas what you did could be.
04:29It is.
04:30It's assault.
04:32But, look, if it did go to court, the first thing they'd ask is, why did you hit him?
04:37And then you tell them.
04:38And then, when he's challenged with it, he either says, yes, I did say it,
04:40makes himself look like a creepy old tosser, or he perjures himself.
04:44And middle class people don't like perjuring themselves, Kitty.
04:47Because it frightens them.
04:50The whole thing reflects much worse on him than it does on you.
04:53That's all he'll care about.
04:54He's not going to report it to the police, Kitty.
04:58Oh, for fuck's sake.
05:00Go away, Rudy.
05:06Is that you?
05:08No.
05:10Oh, I think it is.
05:12Yeah, I think that is you.
05:15What's your name?
05:15Jesus Christ.
05:17Do you know her?
05:19Is she a friend of yours?
05:20I need a way.
05:21You're under arrest.
05:23What's her name?
05:26Kitty Eckersley.
05:28Oh, you're so funny, are you?
05:30She is.
05:32She's Kitty Eckersley.
05:33Check on your briefing.
05:34Well, the guy said it was a random attack.
05:36Said he didn't know who she was.
05:38So what is your name?
05:39The guy fucking well knows who I am.
05:41Right.
05:41You're under arrest.
05:43Do you understand?
05:44I'm arresting you on suspicion of criminal damage.
05:46You don't need to cuff her.
05:47You can see how badly hurt she is.
05:49Just put out, Holly.
05:52You're not in the job anymore.
05:53Okay?
05:54You're irrelevant.
05:59You do not have to say anything.
06:01You may harm your defence if you do not mention one question something you lay to the line and caught
06:04anything.
06:05You do say it may be given an evidence.
06:079837, I've got a 112 for criminal damage crime number...
06:1000.
06:1100.
06:1800.
06:27And, on that brutal day, police constable Powell was targeted.
06:3200.
06:3300.
06:3500.
06:3500.
06:41Beth, where's Kitty and Annie?
07:19She's washed up Gavin's car.
07:21When?
07:22Weeks ago, just before you met, probably just before you heard her singing in that pub.
07:28I can't believe that Graham would say that to her.
07:30Oh, I think she could handle the lewd comments.
07:33It was more him telling her that she really ought to tell Tom who his father is.
07:38That got up her nose.
07:41Yeah, she's never wanted to talk about that, and I haven't wanted to push her.
07:51Well, I guess, you know, she was 12.
07:57That's rape, whichever way you look at it.
08:02So, er, she's just gone into triage, and, er, so that'll be another couple of hours
08:06till they sort her out, and then we'll be another, what, three hours at the police station.
08:11So I'll wait with her, and then I'll drop her off when, er, when she's been processed, all right?
08:15Well, that's very kind of you, Holly.
08:17You know what's so fucking ironic?
08:21Tonight was brilliant.
08:24Oh, my God, that song, and you wrote it, and the way she sings it, and us all managing to
08:33play together, and at that speed.
08:37And the audience, and it was all, I don't know, it's...
08:44It's like a little bit of a magic.
08:50Holly's found her.
08:51Who's Holly?
08:54I'm...
08:54I'm gonna have to go, Holly.
08:57Yeah, sure, sure.
08:58Sorry.
08:59Poor Nisha.
09:00Give her my love.
09:01Yeah, I will do.
09:02Yeah, if I get to see her.
09:02I mean, we still don't know what's going on, so...
09:04Well, let us know when you can.
09:06Yeah, I will.
09:07Bye.
09:07Bye.
09:08Bye, love.
09:08Bye-bye.
09:15She's in A&E.
09:17She broke her hand when she hit him.
09:20And apparently what Graham said was, I'd really like to fuck you.
09:30And when she made it clear that that wasn't on the cards, he said, I wouldn't fuck you anyway, darling,
09:36not for any amount of money.
09:37With his wife, and his daughter, and you, standing, what, two feet away?
09:47Graham wouldn't say that.
09:48Why would she lie?
09:50Did you listen to that podcast?
09:51She's nothing like them.
09:52She...
09:52She was mentioned in passing, she's barely a footnote, if that.
09:56Yeah, but she is like them.
09:57You can see that she's like them for the second she opens up, before she opens her mouth.
10:02I don't believe for a second that Graham would say anything like that to anyone.
10:06Well, I know she's not perfect, but she wouldn't hit someone, not without some provocation.
10:13Do you think that you see too much in her?
10:15Do you think that you see things that aren't really there?
10:18No, I don't.
10:20I couldn't say the same about you.
10:22You're Graham.
10:23Graham and Trisha are good people.
10:25They're kind.
10:26They're interesting.
10:27They engage with the world.
10:28She...
10:29Oh, my God.
10:30It is like she's brainwashed you.
10:32Like she's inveigled away into your life, into your house.
10:36She'll have you changing your will next.
10:38For God's sake.
10:39Do not tell Fern that she said that about her dad.
10:41Of course I am not going to.
10:43What a disgusting thing to say, making out like he's some kind of creep.
10:48Seriously, Mum.
10:49I don't think this woman should be in our house.
10:52This woman?
10:55This woman is your mother.
10:58No.
10:58You're my mother.
11:00Yes.
11:00And I appreciate you saying that.
11:03It feels like at no point have you actually stopped and thought about what any of this
11:06is like for me.
11:07I think about nothing but what is best for you.
11:10That's not true.
11:11You've been that obsessed with this talent contest.
11:14Do you know, finding out that someone like that gave birth to you is a shock.
11:18It's disturbing.
11:19And the way that you have just presented her...
11:22I tried to phone you the day before and you never answered any of my calls.
11:27Because you will never do.
11:27I should have been able to choose if and when and where I got to see her in.
11:31Instead it has just been like, oh, here she is.
11:33Your new best friend living in our house.
11:37And suddenly you are so...
11:40God, I don't even know who you are anymore.
11:42What? I'm so...what?
11:44N.F.Y.
11:44She's not your friend.
11:45I know that you think she is, but she's not.
11:47Why would you say that?
11:48She's nothing like you.
11:49Look at you.
11:51With your stupid tattoos and this.
11:54Whatever this is.
11:55Oh, this is...
11:57For God's sake, it's just a bit of fun.
11:59We're on stage.
12:00That clip's on.
12:03Oh, so is that not a proper tattoo?
12:04No, that is.
12:06I've always fancied a tattoo.
12:08No, you haven't.
12:09Yes, I have.
12:10I was in a very dark place before we started this band.
12:15And I...
12:16And I won't say how dark, but...
12:21I was...
12:23I was pretty low.
12:27And...
12:27Now all that's gone.
12:30It's vanished and I do not want to go back there.
12:35Look.
12:37I know that it's been fun for you with the band and writing the songs and everything, but it's just
12:42far too complicated.
12:43It saved my life.
12:45No, you haven't.
12:57Tom.
13:01You think...
13:08One day, you think you're going to find this person
13:15who has the key to who you are,
13:20to all of these odd little things
13:24that you've never understood about yourself.
13:29And then you meet them.
13:36I don't like her.
13:39I can't cope with that.
13:42She makes me feel grubby and ridiculous and wrong.
13:49What's she even doing, Kia?
13:54I want you to be my mum, not her.
13:59She doesn't belong here.
14:01I want you to be mine...
14:06I want you to be in my penis.
14:22And was they...
14:24I'm guilt in you, and it was my thing.
14:26Have you seen it before you were talking to yourgendered people?
14:47All done, Darren. Cheers. You can get up on your break. There you go. Check and sign.
14:57On the pad.
15:04I could have got the bus. It's Sunday. You couldn't. Not up to where you live.
15:12What did the duty solicitor say?
15:14Oh, it's just about making counter allegations against him. Gavin. For knocking me about. Good.
15:25See you, Arlie.
15:37Have you turned your phone on?
15:39No, why?
15:40Oh, just there was a message from Cam a couple of hours ago.
15:44Nisha's fractured her pelvis and broken her collarbone, but they didn't need to take her to Leeds, so that's something.
15:51They give you a court date. Eight weeks.
16:07You all right?
16:08Yeah.
16:18Is anybody private?
16:24Is everything sacred?
16:29Is everybody out to show?
16:35Everyone wants to see me naked.
16:42And everyone's out for dark.
16:48And everyone's out for dark.
16:54You can drop me off at the top if you want.
16:56For sure?
16:58Yeah.
17:01I can't unfasten this.
17:06There you go, look.
17:14Did you say out to Beth about what I told you about when I were 12?
17:20No.
17:25Does she never been in prison?
17:27Not from me.
17:33Kitty.
17:34What?
17:37Look after yourself.
17:41Oh, shit.
17:42You paid me once before.
17:47You paid me once.
17:53You paid me once.
18:03Oh, give it up, give it up, everybody
18:11I dare into your favor
18:16Oh, give it up, give it up, everybody
18:23I dare into your favor
18:27I'll give it, I'll give it everybody
18:36I guarantee you will
19:08Oh.
19:15Oh, my God. She got around, okay?
19:26Hello.
19:30I shouldn't have hit your dad, Fern. I'm sorry.
19:32Why did you?
19:40I'm thinking I ought to get my stuff and find somewhere else to live.
19:44What did he say to you, Kitty?
19:50Do you want some tea?
19:53I think I ought to just go.
19:54What did he say to you, Kitty?
20:00I don't want to repeat it.
20:02You don't want to repeat it because it's not true.
20:09What?
20:10You don't want to repeat it because he didn't say it.
20:20What did he say?
20:21He didn't.
20:21Okay, so what did he not say?
20:26Well, if that's what you want to believe, I've got other stuff to worry about now.
20:29Beth, can I get me things?
20:30I don't think you should leave.
20:31I think you should get some sleep.
20:32I think she should.
20:33She hasn't got anywhere else to go.
20:35What did he not say?
20:38Why won't one of you tell me?
20:41Well...
20:45According to Kitty, and I think it probably says more about her than it was about Graham, he intimated that...
20:55What?
20:58That he would like to have sex with her.
21:03Don't worry.
21:04We both know that your dad wouldn't say something like that to anyone.
21:09least of all.
21:14Could you...
21:15Could you have...
21:17misheard him?
21:31Don't get my things.
21:53Kitty!
21:54I don't think you should leave.
21:55Not like this.
21:56I think you should rest.
21:58You was right.
21:59You don't want me or I'm trouble.
22:00I've kept telling you don't know me.
22:02You've kept on not...
22:02Listen!
22:03I picked you up in a bar when you were three sheets to the wind and had nowhere to live.
22:06I knew you weren't Princess Diana.
22:08And I know all about your family.
22:10I've listened to a podcast about them last night and I also know you are not like them.
22:15Yeah, do you though?
22:16I've been in prison twice.
22:18What...
22:19What for?
22:20Assault.
22:20You took like shit.
22:22I mean, it was a long time ago.
22:23I was a kid.
22:23I was an idiot, but...
22:24Hey, well, that's...
22:25I don't care.
22:26I mean, I do care.
22:27I hope you didn't hurt anyone.
22:29Assault!
22:30I did!
22:30If it's a long time ago...
22:32Mitigating circumstances as well, but...
22:35I was pissed, but...
22:36No.
22:36I'm not sure that that is...
22:39Anyway, you wouldn't do something like that now, would you?
22:41Yeah, Beth, I just did.
22:43No.
22:43He was provoking you.
22:45That is mitigating circumstances.
22:47Well, anyway, Tom's decided I'm lying and you think I might have misheard him,
22:50so the whole thing is a fucking big mess now, so...
22:52Kendra, I was...
22:53I was just asking the question for his sake.
22:56When I've been charged with criminal damage, I assume Holly's told you.
22:58The chances are I'll be back inside in two months' time,
23:00so you won't need to worry about me anymore,
23:01and you can all forget I was ever here.
23:03You can all forget I ever existed at all!
23:05I wish I could!
23:07Don't say that, Kitty.
23:11You know, I didn't see you people out.
23:14You saw me out.
23:15I had dealt with all this.
23:17I had forgotten about it, literally.
23:19It had gone.
23:20And then I kept that letter off the adoption service,
23:22just stirring it all back up again.
23:24That's what I was doing!
23:25Trashed in that pub when I met you!
23:27I picked a fight with Gavin about him leaving his wife, basically,
23:31because I was trying to bend my head around all that misery again.
23:35And you're right.
23:36I'm not like my family, just out of interest.
23:39I am a lot of useless, idiotic things, Beth.
23:43But I am not evil.
23:45I know what evil is.
23:47I have lived with it.
23:48And I am not that.
23:50And I don't need you or anybody to tell me.
23:54And I'm not a liar, either.
23:56I mean, I am.
23:58I can be.
24:00But not this.
24:01I said misheard.
24:03Dorky.
24:04Not lied.
24:06Kitty.
24:07Kitty, please.
24:10Kitty, where will you go?
24:12Who fucking cares?
24:13I don't.
24:18Tom.
24:19Is this really what you want?
24:21Kitty.
24:22Come on.
24:22Let me help you.
24:23Come on.
24:25Kitty.
24:26Kitty.
24:28Kitty.
24:32I'll tell you what.
24:35You leave me alone and I'll leave you people alone.
24:37Alright?
24:43Kitty.
24:47Kitty.
24:50I'll tell you what.
24:51You leave me alone and I'll leave you people alone.
24:53Alright?
25:00We need to think about going back to Sheffield.
25:32Oh my God.
25:33Morning.
25:39What time is it?
25:42Did you get Granny home properly last night?
25:45Don't ever ask me to do anything like that ever again.
25:47Why?
25:48What?
25:48Why?
25:49She didn't even know where we were, Mum.
25:51You do know it was an emergency.
25:53You do know Nisha got very badly beaten up last night.
25:56I think she thought we'd broken in or something.
25:58We kept saying, it's Carl and Adam and she just kept going, where's Ollie?
26:02And we explained but, you know, so we told her to lock herself in and hopefully she managed
26:06to get herself to bed and everything.
26:07Well, she didn't try to ring me so...
26:10Oh my God.
26:11I hope she's wandered off again.
26:13I better get round there.
26:15Oh, erm, what did you think about the band?
26:20What band?
26:21Our band.
26:22You're my band.
26:24You're like, ow!
26:24Oh, yeah.
26:25Yeah, that was embarrassing, wasn't it?
26:28We thought it went quite well.
26:30Yeah?
26:30Yeah, well they were all drunk, weren't they?
26:31They'd have clapped at anything.
26:32Somebody had come on and farted they'd have clapped.
26:34We came third.
26:36Digustibus non, dispute tandem est.
26:38Sorry?
26:39Oh, what, er, did you not like the song?
26:41What, a load of old women singing about periods?
26:43Yeah, fucking bought the vinyl.
26:45Well, it was the menopause, in fact.
26:49We were all right, weren't we?
26:51We held it together.
26:52We got to the end.
26:54People were happy.
26:55They joined in.
26:56They cheered.
26:57Oh, but they were just doing it because they were drunk.
27:00Obviously.
27:00Silly me.
27:01Can you get some more milk?
27:02If you're going out, please.
27:03Six weeks?
27:05We did that in six weeks?
27:06Yeah.
27:07Well, it showed.
27:11Don't forget the milk, Mum.
27:13Fucking milk.
27:38Hello, love.
27:39Oh.
27:41Has Veronica been?
27:43I don't know.
27:44Has she?
27:44Probably.
27:46So was everything all right last night?
27:48Last night?
27:49Yes.
27:50As far as I know.
27:53We were wondering about a little holiday.
27:55Who is?
27:56Me and your dad.
27:59Where were you thinking of going with Dad?
28:02I've always fancied the Caribbean.
28:07Mum, you've never wanted to fly.
28:09You haven't got a passport.
28:10Oh, it'll be your dad telling you that.
28:12You know, he's clipped my wings.
28:14I've often fancied abroad.
28:18Right, okay.
28:19So, you're all all right.
28:20You don't need anything.
28:22Oh, you're not stopping?
28:25What are you dressed as?
28:27Who the hell is Jenny Lennox?
28:30Who's that texting you?
28:32Yvonne.
28:33Our Yvonne.
28:34Oh.
28:34Was she after money?
28:36I don't think so.
28:39Hiya, kid.
28:40Who's Jenny Lennox?
28:41Jenny Lennox?
28:43That's a fancy name.
28:44Is she talking rubbish?
28:46She will be.
28:47She's fluent at that.
28:49But she finds bands to fill local venues.
28:52Really?
28:53Yeah.
28:55And she loved us.
28:56She thought we were the real deal.
28:58Oh, wow.
28:59So, yeah.
29:00That sounds made up, that name.
29:02And she thinks people would definitely give us a shot.
29:04You kidding?
29:06I ended up dealing with as best as it appeared,
29:08because Kitty hit the spell.
29:09Jenny bollocks.
29:09That sounds made up.
29:11She's really excited about us.
29:13And she thinks we could do proper gigs
29:15if we got enough material together.
29:17She's got a ton of ideas, like recording a track
29:20and sending it out to people.
29:21What are you laughing at?
29:21Like a calling card.
29:23And she wants to come and talk to us at our next rehearsal.
29:25I said, well, technically we haven't got a next rehearsal,
29:27so I'm thinking maybe we should try
29:29and get everybody together on Tuesday,
29:31as we have been doing,
29:32or if she's free this afternoon,
29:34maybe we should try and get everybody together.
29:35Sure.
29:36Well, yeah, yeah.
29:36I'm free.
29:39You're laughing?
29:39What are you laughing at?
29:43You at my mother's?
29:46Yeah.
29:48So have you heard all that,
29:49or were you just being a dickhead?
29:51Yeah, I got it.
29:53Right, well,
29:54I'll phone around everybody else.
29:57You don't have to do anything.
29:58You just sit on your hands
29:59and turn up when required.
30:01Okay?
30:02I'll keep you informed.
30:04Yeah, yeah.
30:05Yeah.
30:09I don't know why I bother with them two.
30:11They're both twats.
30:17It's not Bollocks, it's Lennox.
30:19What is?
30:20Jenny Lennox.
30:22The woman who Yvonne was on about.
30:25Well, who's Jenny Bollocks then?
30:26No, you made her up.
30:28Oh.
30:30It was you that said it, wasn't it?
30:32That was the lady you said, wasn't it?
30:36No, I thought you said it to make me laugh.
30:40Is there what?
30:46Jenny Bollocks.
30:49I've missed something.
30:53No.
30:55Oh.
30:57Okay.
30:58Oh, my God.
30:59I want to go and see how niche her is, shit.
31:02I don't love you.
31:03Who?
31:06My colleague, you do it nowhere.
31:08Bye, love.
31:23Oh.
31:23No.
31:30Oh, my God.
31:33Hey!
31:35Desi!
31:36Mum, come on, we're out here!
31:39Open the door!
31:41Come on, Grunty needs a way! Open the door!
31:47Mum, open the door!
31:53Come on, Mum, the door's locked!
31:57What have we got on a greener to now?
32:25Hello.
32:27Hello.
32:28Holly.
32:30Just wanted to go and have a look at you.
32:34Do you want a few minutes?
32:36I could stretch my legs and get a cup of tea.
32:40Sure, if that's... Thank you, Grace.
32:42Bye.
32:53How are you feeling?
33:08You will get through this, Nisha.
33:13And when you do, you come out the other side and you'll be even stronger, as I know you.
33:20Remember me asking you not to go upstairs?
33:23Complaining to the boss about Rudy?
33:27Well, obviously he did his job properly last night for all his faults.
33:31No.
33:34No.
33:36No, you didn't, Ollie.
33:39He took photos of me.
33:43You what?
33:44I had my hands.
33:47I had my chalices around my ankles and I was stirred six feet off the ground on top of this
33:53bin.
33:54And I had this busting noise in my head so bad I could hardly see straight.
34:00You've got yourself into a right pickle here, haven't you?
34:03I know.
34:04And he stops to take photos.
34:07And he goes.
34:08Telling fucking Holly to go upstairs and squeal to the boss.
34:11Smart man.
34:13No.
34:15And he unfastened me.
34:17And he let me fall.
34:20That's how I fractured my pelvis and that's how I'm a collar butcher.
34:24What?
34:25And that weren't them lads.
34:27It was him.
34:29I asked you not to say out.
34:32But you always know best, aren't you?
34:36Did you tell that to them?
34:38Made you instantine?
34:39Oh, yeah.
34:39Make everything even worse.
34:41You'll get done.
34:43They'll just brush it onto the carpet.
34:47And someone upstairs, like you or Tony, will have a word with someone.
34:50You'll have a word with someone else.
34:52By the time it's got to the bottom of the food chain, that someone else will probably just be one
34:55of Rudy's mates.
34:57Like Sergeant Arsall.
35:01So it doesn't work, Holly.
35:04Going upstairs never works.
35:08And I knew that, even if you didn't.
35:11And whatever happens now, those photos of me will be out there.
35:22So nah.
35:25I haven't all the major incident team.
35:28Because do you really think I want anyone who cares about me knowing they exist?
35:34Oh, you can go now.
35:36I can't stand to look at you.
35:40I can miss you.
35:40No.
35:52No.
36:03No-no.
36:07And it's the name of my sister.
36:07And he will poor my sister's gifts.
36:08You guys want me to fight, support her.
36:48Would you like more tea, Bea?
36:51Would we like more tea, Mum?
36:56No, I think we're all right, thanks.
36:58She's tired herself out.
37:00She was up at three o'clock this morning singing.
37:03What was she singing?
37:05Oh.
37:05La, la, la, la, and a nightingale sung in Barclays Square.
37:27The joke's on you
37:30Because you never really knew her
37:35A rebellious, suburban, badass bitch
37:40Who never for a second would have taken your shit
37:44Rebel with a Sparks card
37:48She's the countdown queen
37:52Gotta go
37:56Don't want to miss the Chelsea Flower Show
38:18So we met Jess last night
38:19She did
38:20I'm Mary
38:21Oh yeah, she's not in the band, she just lives there
38:23I just own the place
38:25Okay
38:26And that's Holly
38:28You play bass
38:30Can you drop this face business when you say my name?
38:33Because I was not laughing at you, okay?
38:35It wasn't about you
38:35Not everything is about you, Yvonne
38:37It was about Jess
38:39How did you do?
38:40The sisters
38:41All my life I've had this
38:42Oh
38:43Ever since I was a kid
38:44Your little sister
38:45And the woman who professes to be young with her taking the
38:49My kid
38:50Then people wonder why you're bad-tempered
38:51Sorry
38:52Should we just listen to what Jenny's got to say?
38:55Yes
38:56Sorry, sorry
38:57Can I just say
38:59Beth visits her mum on Sunday afternoons
39:01And Kitty has resurfaced, apparently
39:04But we can't get hold of her just now
39:05Because, well, I imagine she's asleep somewhere
39:08Because she was in A&E all night
39:10With a fractured fifth metacarpal after she punched Ferns down
39:12Cam's not here
39:14Because, well, could you know about Nisha?
39:16I mean, things aren't usually this dramatic
39:18Okay
39:20Well, moving forward
39:22I need a support band
39:23For the Ogden Water Babies
39:25At the Hebden Festival in two months' time
39:28You think you possibly have enough material to do a 30-minute set?
39:31Yes?
39:32Half your own material, half covers?
39:33Probably more original stuff than covers, I'd say
39:36But, yeah
39:38Yeah
39:38So, as well as making a recording of Seeing Red
39:40In the next few weeks
39:42This gives you something else to aim for
39:44Seriously
39:46Perform, like
39:47Are you serious?
39:48Yeah
39:49It's a block band
39:50So, in the eight weeks before the festival
39:52It'll be down to you
39:53To keep the passion and the creativity
39:55And the hard work going
39:56Okay
40:01Yeah
40:10Right, so
40:11So what she wants us to do, first of all
40:13Is a recording of Seeing Red
40:15I mean, a proper recording
40:19In a studio
40:21And she can set that up for us
40:22I mean, we'll have to pay for it ourselves, obviously
40:24And then
40:26Oh, God
40:27She wants us to support the Ogden Water Babies
40:29At the Hebden Festival
40:31The Ogden Water Babies?
40:33And she's so excited about us
40:35I mean, she wants to come to the rehearsal next week
40:38And give us some hints and tips
40:40What have we got to lose?
40:42A few quid
40:42A few quid hiring a recording studio
40:48You and me are 60 next year
40:51And you know what comes after that, don't you?
40:5361
40:5470
40:55This is our time
40:57This decade's going to go like that
40:58We need to grasp it
41:00Yeah, so we just need to get
41:02Nisha back on her feet again
41:03And Holly thinks it's very unlikely
41:05That Kitty will get a custodial sentence
41:09For that business of that Gavin's car
41:11Um, so is she in bed?
41:15How is she?
41:17No
41:19No, I'm afraid
41:21She's
41:23She's gone
41:26Gone
41:29Where?
41:30Well, I had hoped she might come to you
41:31Or Holly
41:33Clearly not
41:34Oh, pass
41:40Are you alright?
41:42Tom doesn't like her
41:44And he doesn't believe that Graham would say something like that
41:48And he hasn't been able to hide how he feels
41:52So she's gone
41:54She was upset
41:55And she was angry
41:57And I
42:01I don't know
42:02He is so disdainful towards her
42:06And it's heartbreaking
42:07Because when I look at her
42:08I just see him
42:25Tricia
42:30Hello, Tricia
42:30Ben, hello
42:31How's Graham?
42:34Are you busy?
42:36No
42:36I, um
42:40Fern rang me
42:42And told me that everything's a bit of a mess
42:45Because
42:47Tom accused Kitty of lying
42:49Because
42:49Graham would never say such a thing
42:52Quite a big mess, actually
42:55Well
42:56I'm sorry to have to tell you
42:58That Graham would say such a thing
43:01Because
43:02Because
43:06He's done it before
43:07On more than one occasion
43:09And probably
43:10More times than I know about
43:14He appears to make something of a habit of it
43:18Um, I forgave him the first time
43:21It was drawn to my attention
43:23By a well-wisher
43:24And
43:25I turned a blind eye on another occasion
43:30You keep hoping it's happened for the last time
43:34Of course
43:35But now this
43:38Tom's birth, Mum
43:40I mean, you know
43:42What the actual fuck
43:45How is Kitty?
43:49She's safe
43:52I miss that song
43:57The one that hurts like something's wrong
44:05Cause even when I'm feeling fine
44:13It's always nice just to remind
44:30So are we assuming that Kitty's not coming?
44:32Oh, she...
44:33She's...
44:34She's just not replied to any of our texts or messages
44:38So...
44:38We can do it without her, can't we?
44:40Sorry, you can record Seeing Red without Kitty?
44:43How?
44:44Can't we get someone else?
44:45Where?
44:47People who sing like Kitty don't grow on trees
44:49Well, she'll turn up by next Thursday
44:51I can't keep a studio and a sound engineer booked for a whole day
44:54On the understanding that she may or may not turn up
44:56I only got this slot cause someone else had cancelled
44:58And then there's her two days mixing
45:00And you know, this is your money
45:03Where does she live?
45:07Um, she...
45:10We don't actually know where she is
45:12At the moment
45:13But we do know she's not dead
45:15Because she has read our messages
45:16Well, somebody's read our messages
45:20Oh
45:22So she...
45:22Could be?
45:26Look, I don't want to be...
45:28I wanted to help you
45:30I honestly thought you had something when I saw you on Saturday night
45:32But maybe I just got carried away
45:34The thing is, you know, what you're doing is lovely
45:37But the truth is, and the song, the song is fantastic
45:40You know, you are definitely more than some sad dad band doing cheesy covers
45:44But without Kitty
45:47She really is your secret weapon
45:51What I'm offering you is next level
45:54And this, without her, this isn't enough
45:58Twice now she's not shown up
46:00And clearly there are issues with her
46:02And if she wanted this she'd be here
46:05So
46:06I'm sorry, but
46:07I'm afraid this isn't for me
46:11Sorry, mate
46:17Well, where have you been?
46:19I just said, I'm sorry I'm there
46:22What have I missed?
46:24Well, nothing
46:25Because we can't actually do much without you
46:27But, um, it turns out
46:30Well, I'm here now, so
46:31Kitty, I'm Jenny Lennox
46:34We met briefly on Saturday
46:36So what's happening?
46:38Well, I was just gonna...
46:39You know what's happening?
46:40We've all been sending you texts and messages for two days
46:43Telling you what's happening
46:45So I was just gonna make a little recording of you
46:47Singing Seeing Red on my phone
46:49So I could send it to the sound engineer at the recording studio
46:52I've got booked in Huddersfield next Thursday
46:53So he's got a rough idea of what the song is meant to sound like
46:56OK, cool
46:58But, I guess
47:01I need to know that you're committed
47:04Because I'm sensing
47:06You're not as tight as you might be
47:09Tight?
47:11Together
47:13You're 40 minutes late
47:14You've been ignoring everyone's messages for the last two days
47:16So, yeah, I have to ask these questions
47:18If I'm putting my time into this
47:20Not to mention all these other ladies' money
47:23A day in a recording studio
47:24With a sound engineer
47:26Then two days in the mix
47:27That's Β£1,000
47:29Yeah
47:30So we need to know you're not going AWOL
47:32Every five minutes
47:34Kitty
47:35I'm here, aren't I?
47:38Who was that
47:38That dropped you off?
47:41Why?
47:47So you're doing this or what?
47:49Well, you've
47:51You've not come back to Gavin
47:53Well, do you know what, Beth?
47:55I didn't have a fat little fucking choice, did I?
48:01So, excuse me for being thick
48:03But that car that you just got dropped off in
48:06Is that the Jaguar you were up in court for having trashed?
48:10Oh, yeah
48:11Well, it's been fixed now, so
48:15Sorry
48:16This is the man who had his mates beat you up that day I arrested you
48:19And you were trying to kill yourself with vodka and painkillers and a carving knife
48:22You've gone back to the man that did that to you
48:24Like I said
48:25It was either his place or the bus station
48:28Segar figure
48:29You arrested her?
48:31Briefly, yes
48:32For her own good
48:33Under the Mental Health Act
48:34When?
48:35I told you
48:36No, you didn't
48:36You told me she'd been in prison twice
48:37Well, it would have been the day before Beth picked her up in that karaoke pub
48:42Yeah
48:43Yeah, that was the first of our memorable nights in A&E together, wasn't it?
48:49And, wow
48:51You've gone back to him
48:52So, but he's not still taking you to court then, I take it?
48:56I take it he's dropped that?
48:57Yeah
48:59Yeah, he's going to drop it, yeah
49:03Go into
49:03Oh, what is your problem?
49:05Yes
49:05He's on his way to the police station right now
49:08For that purpose, okay
49:11I'm here
49:12Make the most of it
49:16Shall we rewind half an hour
49:20Pretend you weren't late
49:22Ladies?
49:29Rigged it up for you earlier, Kitty
49:31That's good
49:33When you ready?
49:41Let's go
50:07So depressed, I can't get dressed
50:10Having trouble hiding my lack of interest
50:13But today it was pouring like rain
50:16But I hadn't even thought breathing all day
50:18My time's waning, feels like I'm fading
50:21Doctor taught me to stop complaining
50:24If it happens in flux, God only knows
50:27We'll be getting HRT
50:29Am I invisible?
50:32Am I untouchable?
50:35Am I unlovable?
50:37Are you uncomfortable?
50:40And I'm seeing red
50:42Red, red, red, red, red
50:44Red, red, red, red, red
50:47Red, red, red, red, red
50:48Red, red, red, red, red
50:51I'm seeing red
50:53Red, red, red, red, red
50:57Red, red, red, red, red
50:59Red, red, red, red, red
51:01Red, red, red, red, red
51:01Red, red, red, red, red
51:02Red, red, red, red, red
51:07Red, red, red, red, red, red, red
51:10I've got to get back.
51:12Bases.
51:14What's up?
51:16See you, sweetie.
51:18Kitty, what?
51:23We need to have a think about how to work on new material
51:26for the festival.
51:29It comes flat if you want to.
51:31Have you got a keyboard?
51:32No.
51:35So it would make more sense if you came up to me, wouldn't it?
51:41One evening.
51:42Evening's now.
51:43During the day is better for me when he's at work.
51:46Um, I'm at work.
51:49During the day, as you know, so...
51:51Maybe just work on them separately, then.
51:53We need, realistically,
51:56we need four more songs ready in eight weeks' time,
52:00so that is quite a tall order.
52:06Shall we talk about this when you're sober?
52:09I know. I know.
52:14Did you get my text about Trisha phoning me up?
52:17Yeah.
52:18No, no, no.
52:20Olney, you didn't reply.
52:21I didn't need to.
52:23I know what that creepy old tosspot said to me,
52:25even if you didn't believe me.
52:27I... I didn't... I shouldn't...
52:29I shouldn't have said anything.
52:31This is great.
52:32I don't know.
52:33Well, I assume so.
52:35He's not...
52:36...taking me back, either.
52:40Come on, you know.
52:42It makes sense for you to come to me to work on the songs.
52:46I'm not coming to your house, Beth.
52:49Ever again.
52:59Can somebody help me get the keyboard into the car, please?
53:02Yeah, me. I will.
53:26Okay.
53:27I have red wine.
53:29Ooh!
53:29Here we go.
53:32John loves it.
53:33He's just listened to it through twice.
53:36He's got a few thoughts.
53:37The singer amazing.
53:38Yep.
53:39Where is she?
53:42She left.
53:43After we finished.
53:45It'll be that Gavin.
53:46He doesn't like a stopping outlet.
53:47Why has she gone back to him?
53:50He said nothing about the fabulous drummer
53:51and the sublime backing vocals.
53:53Yeah, like I said, he's got a few thoughts.
53:56So, this is how it's going to work next week.
53:59Beth, John wants you and Kitty there from 8am
54:01because you wrote the song, you know how you want it to sound.
54:04Jess, you need to be there then too
54:05because he'll want to lay the drum track first.
54:07So, Holly and Yvonne, you don't need to be there till 10-11.
54:10You'll do keys and vocals last
54:12but you and Kitty will both be there anyway, so...
54:14What about backing singers?
54:15Oh, I'd get there 2, 3, 4 o'clock.
54:18Whenever you feel like it, really.
54:21Vino?
54:22No, I'm going to love you and leave you.
54:23I'm up to here.
54:24It's the Slavik Music Festival next week.
54:26Exciting times!
54:28Yay!
54:28Well done, riot ladies.
54:31Oh, thank you.
54:32See you later. See you.
54:33Bye.
54:33Cheers, Mel. Thank you.
54:37Is she a bit of a wanker?
54:38Did she just call us riot ladies?
54:41We're going to talk about the elephant in the room.
54:43What elephant?
54:45Kitty.
54:46We're putting all this money in
54:47and if the wind's blowing in the wrong direction,
54:49she could just not bother turning up again next Thursday.
54:51I can't believe she's gone back to that moment.
54:53She's like a right bastard.
54:54She's chaotic.
54:55She's flaky.
54:56And she's not putting any money in.
54:58Hang on.
54:58So what are you saying?
54:59Look, it's been a blast.
55:01We've done what we set out to do.
55:03We did the talent contest and we did it really well.
55:06We came third.
55:07But this, now, with her like that,
55:10I think we could be kidding ourselves.
55:11I'm reluctantly suggesting that we call it a day.
55:19And the sky was made of amnesia.
55:24And all the stars were just like me.
55:29You should learn when to go.
55:35You should learn how to say no.
55:38all of us.
56:04And if you couldn't see what we need
56:07in some form saying I was declining to prosecute you and then I find out that I'm being investigated
56:13because of allegations of assault made by you. Oh yeah, no. That was a duty solicitor,
56:19that was his idea. I can drop all that if you've dropped that thing against me. I haven't
56:23dropped the charges against you. I was going to but then this, did you think that I wouldn't
56:27find out? I forgot it was him, it was that solicitor. You forgot? I was exhausted, I'd
56:34been in a hospital and I've been arrested, I was in agony. Do I look stupid? What? Do I
56:39look stupid to you? They both go back there together and tell them that neither of us want
56:43to prosecute the other one. You think I'm going to go back there again now, tonight? You
56:46don't just pop in and say, oh by the way, especially not when you're off your tits on vodka. Then
56:51I'll have to because I need those charges dropped. Oh yeah, yeah, then what are you going to
56:54do, eh? Just disappear and have a big laugh when I get arrested. You won't waste your
56:57money doing it if you're dropping the charges against me. No, no, no, you are going to go
57:01and drop these allegations first. I have got charges against me, pal. I have got a court
57:06date. I need to know you're going to do what you say you're going to do. Why, why don't
57:09you just play? Well, I'd like to trust you, Gavin, but you know you're the fellow who told
57:14me he was divorcing his wife when in fact you were planning to jet off to paradise to do
57:17your marriage vows again, sir. Just saying.
57:30Okay. All right. Can you get back in? So, we're both going to? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
57:55I'm fucking dead. I've had it. I've had it. I've had it. I've had it. I've had it.
58:16Take everything. Take everything. Take everything. Take everything. Take everything.
58:30Take everything. Take everything. Take everything. Take everything.
58:33Take everything. Take everything. Take everything. Take everything. Take everything.
58:46Amen.
