00:01Music
00:27I'm finally finished then, Edwin.
00:29I've been waiting for that bathroom for over half an hour.
00:32Sorry?
00:34Well, look, if I don't get started soon, I'll never get to work.
00:36So I've finished now?
00:38But the room's still full of nappies.
00:40It's like a Chinese laundry in there.
00:42Look, they've just been building up of it.
00:44You know what it's like?
00:45Well, let them build up in here.
00:47You can't even get near the mirror.
00:49How is Ali going to shave?
00:50Look, I'll move them when they've stopped dripping.
00:52That'll be too late.
00:53You've got to shift them now.
00:55I mean, what happened to the disposables, anyway?
00:57Expensive.
00:58The elf visitor got me this lot.
01:00Well, these are a bloody nuisance.
01:01Look, do you think you could keep your voice down a bit?
01:04Eh?
01:04Well, I've only just got her off to sleep and I don't want to wake you up again, thank you.
01:07Oh, great.
01:09She'll get me up all last night in half the square, I shouldn't wonder.
01:13Oh, I'm sorry.
01:15Oh, look, I don't need to get at you, love.
01:18It's just that if we're going to share a bathroom, we're going to have to sort it out a little
01:21bit.
01:21I'm sorry.
01:23It's not as if you're working or anything.
01:25I mean, so perhaps you should just let me and Ali use it first in the morning, eh?
01:28Yeah, I'll try and remember.
01:30It's just that she doesn't fit into a timetable yet.
01:34You said the way Reg Cox used to go on at us.
01:37He hated kids.
01:38Sue?
01:39Here.
01:40Where's my clean shirt?
01:42Oh, sorry.
01:43It's on the table.
01:44All laid out for you.
01:45Sleeping peacefully, eh?
01:47Yeah.
01:48I'm sorry if she kept you awake.
01:49I know what it's like working late in there.
01:51We don't mind, love.
01:52We understand about babies, don't we, Sue?
01:55You threatened to come up and struggle her last night.
01:57I was only joking.
02:00You look tired, love.
02:01Yeah, I've not been sleeping.
02:03Oh, can't have that.
02:04Got to keep your strength up, hasn't she, Sue?
02:06I thought you were going to move those nappies.
02:08Oh, yes, sorry.
02:09Don't worry.
02:10We can work round them.
02:12It'll be all right this morning, but don't make her a bit of it, eh?
02:15I don't know why you don't use the laundrette.
02:18I thought it'd be a bit pricey.
02:19Well, the dryers don't cost much.
02:21We could take them round for her.
02:22We don't want to interfere.
02:24Don't worry.
02:26I can manage.
02:28Oh.
02:29If you'll excuse me, I think she needs feeding again.
02:32Oh, yeah.
02:33Well, we've got to get on and off.
02:38You're just making trouble for yourself, you know.
02:40I don't know why you don't bottle feed.
02:42I like it.
02:44It makes me feel closer to her.
02:49Come on, you're worse than your mother.
02:52Forget it.
02:53It's not on, I've told you.
02:55It's smoke.
02:56We can't afford a microwave.
02:58No, but we can afford a villa in Spain, can't we?
03:01Yeah, and that's another reason why we can't afford one.
03:03Oh, you're hopeless, you are.
03:05You know, this villa's just a pipe dream, and you never think of anything practical.
03:08That's not true.
03:09Yes, it is.
03:10It's like this pub, innit?
03:12It's falling apart round your ears, you're still talking about conversions.
03:15There's nothing wrong with this pub.
03:18Have you seen the books lately?
03:20Don't look too good.
03:22Both sets.
03:23They'll pick up.
03:24Get out of the way.
03:25Not unless we do something they want.
03:27I mean, we've got a nice few regulars, but if there was a flu epidemic in Albert Square,
03:31we'd go broke.
03:32Rubbish.
03:33You've got to look after your regulars.
03:35Yes, but it would be nice to get some new ones.
03:40You could have some in there, Ench.
03:44You know what really pulls them in, don't you?
03:46No.
03:47Surprise me.
03:48The dolly barmaid with the...
03:49Oh, trust you to think of that.
03:51Well, I'm only doing like you said, trying to be practical.
03:54And you've got to admit, it always works.
03:56Well, you can forget it.
03:57We've already got two dolly barmaids in this pub, Cathy and me.
04:02And we don't need a 50-inch fast to prove it.
04:06I don't know where to look.
04:08I bet you didn't.
04:10I mean, it takes you back a bit though, doesn't it?
04:11You think you've been this all that larkin' about when you're a youngster?
04:14And there you are, out by your own son.
04:16Yeah.
04:16Good job it weren't the milkman.
04:18You seen that milkman?
04:19No, Pete had a talk to him.
04:21Who?
04:21The milkman?
04:22No, you're Wally Ian.
04:23It's what Pete calls a man-to-man chat.
04:26Is it all that these days?
04:27He's trying to turn that kid into a Charles Bronson or something.
04:30No, Charles.
04:31He's a quiet, sensitive type.
04:33I wish our Mark was as quiet as him.
04:35The only time he's quiet is when he's asleep.
04:37And then I dread to think what he's dreaming.
04:38I wonder what the new one will turn out like.
04:40It's going to be funny having a baby in the family again, isn't it?
04:42Oh, don't.
04:43It's been so long.
04:44I don't think I'll be able to cope this time round.
04:46It's all she will.
04:47It's like riding a bike.
04:48Oh, yeah.
04:48You must have had a funny delivery.
04:51Well, how about you then?
04:52Do you fancy having another one?
04:54No.
04:54Pete wouldn't like it.
04:55Yeah, but what about you?
04:57Oh.
04:58Oh, hello.
04:58Right, honey, please.
04:58Yeah, Mum.
04:59Let's a couple quid.
05:00You've already had your pocket money.
05:01Yeah, I know.
05:01I'll pay this one back.
05:03What's it for?
05:04I can't tell you.
05:05Surprise.
05:05Yeah.
05:06Am I riding a mug, are you?
05:07I know.
05:08See you later.
05:08Bye.
05:09Mark's just the same.
05:11Well, at least you'll have a bit extra this week.
05:13You've got one holiday.
05:14I know.
05:14The only trouble is it's spent before it comes in.
05:17I'd be a lot happier about this baby if I knew we could have fooled it.
05:24That's £1.900.
05:25Just made it.
05:26A couple of quid.
05:28All right, if we pop into your gaff later, Tom.
05:30Get some cookery tips.
05:32Aye, aye.
05:33What's this, Tom?
05:34You a bit for Mrs Beaton, are you?
05:36I'm doing a big meal, see?
05:38Different bits from different countries.
05:39I was going to get a few portions of rice and peas from the Turpin Road.
05:42The budget won't stretch out, Tom.
05:44It's not going to make me up.
05:46OK.
05:47But my recipe sticks to your ribs.
05:48You won't need much else with it.
05:50OK, thanks.
05:51I'll see you later, all right?
05:52Bye-bye.
05:55Rolling in it, kids, these days.
05:58Mark, you're staying around with Nick Cotton, didn't he?
06:00I wonder if that had anything to do with it.
06:02My brother saw him.
06:03Who?
06:03Nick.
06:04Stoke Nianton way.
06:05Did you tell the bill?
06:06Joking, aren't you?
06:07He values his health.
06:08And he's got kids, same as us.
06:11You're such a good family, man.
06:12It's a pity you don't start acting like one.
06:14What have I done now?
06:16What have I done now?
06:17What have I done now?
06:17Oh, the butter wouldn't melt in your mouth.
06:20Come on in.
06:21Your eyes are popping out of your head.
06:23What are you talking about?
06:25Mary Mary in the sea-food towel.
06:27I said she is.
06:29Don't talk rubbish.
06:31You're all over her.
06:34I worry about her.
06:36Even you've got to admit she looks ill.
06:38Cheers, dear.
06:39Well, you know better than me.
06:41You were studying her clothes, you love.
06:42She's not eating properly.
06:44It's obvious.
06:46You like her skinny?
06:48I'll give it a rest.
06:52I was just worried about her.
06:54And the kid.
06:55You know what I'm like with children.
06:57Hey.
06:59What would I want to go chasing after her for?
07:01When I've got a girl like you, eh?
07:03But you say that to all your wives.
07:04No, there are four of them.
07:06Oi, oi.
07:07Pack it in, you two.
07:08I'll have to call in the vice squad.
07:09What do you want, Pete?
07:10Got any change?
07:11Old punter just turned up the £50 note.
07:13Is it all right just to bring your pram in?
07:15Yes, that's OK.
07:16We're not good, sir.
07:18Can you manage?
07:24I'm still angry with him for getting drunk, though.
07:26I feel as if everyone's laughing at us.
07:28Oh, don't be silly.
07:29No-one cares if someone gets tiddly once in a while.
07:32To be honest, there's a lot more think more of him because of it.
07:36Is it all right just to use the dryer?
07:38Yes, if you put the money in first.
07:40But when we're busy, them to use the machine gets priority.
07:44No, dear.
07:45You put them in here first, it saves money in the long run.
07:52Yeah, you look a bit pale. Are you all right?
07:55Yeah, I just feel a bit faint, that's all.
07:56Oh, give them to me, I'll do them for you. You sit down.
07:59It's all right, there's no extra charge.
08:00Give us your tens.
08:03You sit down before you fall down.
08:06Yeah.
08:07I don't know.
08:09Everybody's mother I am.
08:10I can't think why, it must be suffering in the blood.
08:13You know what you ought to do?
08:14Beat him at his own game.
08:16You know, what sauce for the goose and all that.
08:18Sorry?
08:20Well, if he had a drink, so can you.
08:22I mean, if I've got to stay this hole all day,
08:24we might as well jolly things along a bit.
08:26Yeah, but I can't leave the shop though.
08:28Well, he did, didn't he?
08:30We'll do it in the lunch break.
08:31Everyone's in time to a break, even you.
08:34We'll go halves on a bottle of plonk.
08:35I've got some plastic cups in the back.
08:37Said won't like it.
08:39Are you going to put your foot down or go on being a doormat?
08:44Come on.
08:45All right then, I'll come back at lunchtime.
08:47Right.
08:47Okay.
08:50What about you, love?
08:52Fancy three-way split.
08:53You look as though you could do it a bit of cheering at.
08:55I can't really afford it.
08:57I'll tell you what, add this one on me then.
08:59I feel a bit generous today.
09:00Oh, darling.
09:04You know, love, I've been thinking.
09:05Mm-hmm.
09:06About what you were saying about lighting this place up.
09:08Yeah.
09:08Well, you're right.
09:09It's not who you've got behind the bar that counts.
09:11It's the attractions you've got to offer.
09:13Oh, yeah.
09:14You need a gimmick these days.
09:15Everything is down to gimmicks.
09:16What sort of a gimmick?
09:18Well, take for Harry.
09:19He can't get near his place on Sunday.
09:21He's pulling them in.
09:23He can't get near his bar most of a day for the week.
09:25What's he offering?
09:26Free beer?
09:27No.
09:28Floor, Sherry.
09:28The full of works.
09:30Yeah, then we can't afford that sort of thing.
09:32Well, it's not that expensive.
09:33It pays for itself twice over.
09:34What does?
09:35Well, Harry's got four of them.
09:36He's got a guardsman, a bunny rabbit.
09:38You've finally gone, Sherry.
09:39You've flipped your lid.
09:39They're strippers.
09:40The third one does things with...
09:42Forget it, Dennis.
09:47Ah!
09:49You're just in time for lunch.
10:01Pull up a newspaper and sit down.
10:07Hey, it's coming on, eh?
10:09Yeah.
10:09Great.
10:10Gonna keep it Japanese-style or what?
10:12Eh?
10:13Well, you know, squatting on the floor.
10:15Or are you gonna get some furniture in?
10:17Yeah, I'd like a lot of space.
10:18Mum's got plenty of chairs and stuff spared, Dad.
10:21Chip's a splitter with you.
10:22It's only fair.
10:22Nah, she can keep them.
10:23I wanna make a fresh start.
10:26Anyway, I don't wanna fill the place up with junk.
10:30When I get furniture, it's gonna be something I can live with.
10:33Something I gotta keep.
10:35Something you can afford?
10:36No chance.
10:38If I can't afford it, I will do without it till I can.
10:42This place is gonna be something special.
10:45Yeah, well, Mum doesn't think you'll ever finish it.
10:48I know.
10:49She told me.
10:50Yeah, well, I reckon you will.
10:54This ain't easy for me, you know.
10:56What ain't?
10:58Isn't.
10:59And all this hassle between you and Mum.
11:03I know, Kelvin, and I'm sorry.
11:06But I've tried to be straight to you.
11:08Keep you informed of what's going on.
11:10No lies.
11:10It's still not easy, though, is it?
11:13Look, it happens in relationships, you know.
11:17They go wrong.
11:19I mean, it's not very fair on us stuck in the middle, though, is it?
11:22What are you asking?
11:23That me and your mother get back together again?
11:25Believe me, life wouldn't be worth living.
11:27No.
11:28But I just don't know which side to take.
11:30Then don't take sides.
11:33Okay, your mother is not perfect.
11:34Neither are you.
11:35Yeah, I was coming to that.
11:37But there's good points in both of us.
11:38Hang on to that.
11:42You're not perfect either.
11:44You still play in the field.
11:47Who is it this week, Sharon or Michelle?
11:50Well, have you got another one up your sleeve?
11:52I haven't heard of you.
11:53Well, I'm not all that bothered.
11:57As long as I don't get a gang of angry fathers
11:59blaming you for every two-tone baby in the square.
12:02Yeah, well, maybe I'm learning from you, eh?
12:04I don't want to get tied up with one woman too soon.
12:08Hey, Dad.
12:09It was a joke.
12:11Oh, I didn't mean anything.
12:14It's okay.
12:17You're right.
12:20You'll probably make a better job off your life without any advice on me.
12:27What's your drink, babe?
12:28Oh, thanks.
12:28How much do I owe you?
12:29One-fifty.
12:30What?
12:30I hope you're not a connoisseur.
12:32I hope you're not a connoisseur.
12:32Then only does white bread and a bit of the Aunt Rosie.
12:35Oh, you're sure he puts a bit of food culling in it, though.
12:38I'm sure it'll be fine.
12:39I've never had wine before.
12:40No.
12:41The old man's the boozer in your family, ain't he?
12:43Think they're coming down a bit lunchtime for sherbet, Said?
12:45No, not, Said.
12:46No, very wise.
12:47The last person I see drink like that, eh, Gil?
12:49Not saying he was lickers, but then's thinking they're going away for a week on the profits.
12:53Nice one, Said.
12:55Now, here.
12:57Are you sure about this, er, dinnertime drink?
13:00Why not?
13:01You got drunk and now you're one of the boys.
13:03Nice one, Said.
13:04It's different for you.
13:06Oh, I see.
13:07You can be a cotton bingo, but I can't.
13:10You know what I mean.
13:11I'm having a drink with Pauline.
13:13What I do in my lunch hour is my business.
13:20Oh, Pete, turn it down, eh?
13:22What are you on about?
13:23Just be a party.
13:24This is a social occasion, not a rave-up.
13:27You get me shot.
13:28Seems better than watching the telly, ain't it?
13:31Look, just turn it off, eh?
13:32You'll lose me, me job.
13:33Have you got some music?
13:35Oh, but you've got...
13:36Yeah, supposedly the governor's come in this afternoon.
13:39You know, lose your loaf.
13:40Oh.
13:41Hello.
13:41I thought I'd pop in and see if I was nicking all my customers.
13:44What's your Denny boy want to drink?
13:45Well, I wouldn't say no.
13:46I'll get it.
13:47Right.
13:48Cheers, darling.
13:49See that?
13:49Full measure.
13:50Don't get that in your gaff, do you?
13:52I'm not surprised.
13:53Hey.
13:53Did you mean it about me coming?
13:55Yeah, come in, love.
13:56Make yourself at home.
13:58Here, sis.
13:59This is the life, ain't it?
14:00Oh, my God.
14:00Let's go.
14:00I don't mess to the afternoon.
14:02On your bike, you.
14:03Kathy can come over when you've finished that.
14:05It was supposed to be a hen party, remember?
14:07I'll leave.
14:08I've says Kathy don't enjoy this sort of thing like I do.
14:11Yeah, but perhaps you don't appreciate her enough.
14:13Oh, you two been talking?
14:15Sort of.
14:16You really ought to listen to her.
14:18Sounds dodgy.
14:19Yeah.
14:20Well, you've already had words about him, so you should just think what's behind it.
14:25Search me, mate.
14:25I think she's a bit broody, myself.
14:28Broody?
14:28Yeah, well, that's because of me, I suppose.
14:32Cheers, Paul.
14:33I won't report it to the licensing people.
14:35Sorry.
14:37Sorry.
14:38Huh?
14:39Did you say Rorick?
14:41Yeah.
14:41Would that have throw up?
14:43But he wouldn't know.
14:44It cooks, see, on the spaghetti.
14:48It's a cheap meal.
14:50But everything you need for a balanced diet.
14:52Vitamins, protein, carbohydrate.
14:54I'll try it on him next week, all right?
14:56Yeah.
14:56And remember, don't cook the pasta for longer than nine minutes.
15:00Make it sort of al dente to the teeth, yeah?
15:03Right.
15:04You're a mate, you are.
15:04Thanks.
15:05My pleasure, young man.
15:07So how long have you been cooking in?
15:08Hmm.
15:09Since my early twenties.
15:11With my first wife, it was a case of having to or starved.
15:16Sure.
15:17Wish you'd have a word with my old man.
15:20It's all right as obby, he says.
15:22He reckons there's no future in it.
15:23He thinks I'm not ambitious enough.
15:25He just wants the best for you, that's all.
15:27We all want that for our kids.
15:29His ambition at my age was to be a redcoat at Butlins.
15:32And did he make it?
15:33No.
15:34So you better do it for him, then.
15:36Oh, try telling Mum that.
15:39Hmm.
15:41She doesn't want you to be a redcoat.
15:44No.
15:45Feet on the ground, she says.
15:47Qualifications.
15:48What's the point of big ambitions if you've got nothing to back it up with?
15:54And you're caught in the middle, huh?
15:57Hmm.
15:57Like a punch bag.
16:02You remind me of someone.
16:04One apple and he expects the bigger the crop.
16:06Well, you know what it's like when you fancy something.
16:08I'm not asking out on the grounds I might incriminate myself.
16:11Oh, I suppose you want it.
16:12Give that thing, I'll tell you.
16:14Yeah, and fight to anyone else.
16:15Oh, Pete, you don't fancy a few nights in the bar, did you?
16:17What, Mr Lofty, or is he?
16:18You put me on, I only employ him out of the goodness of me heart.
16:21Who is he anyway?
16:22I've seen him for ages.
16:23Oh, an invisible man out of Lofty.
16:24Therefore reckons he's locked himself in upstairs in his room.
16:27Funny thing, is it?
16:28Well, show me a man who isn't.
16:29Well, Pete's all right.
16:31He's only smart in the range because he wants something.
16:33Well, the extra money might come in handy.
16:35I mean, I might be away for a while.
16:36Think about it.
16:39We'll see you home, Tom.
16:41Denny?
16:42Yeah.
16:43Well, we don't want us both working nights.
16:45If we leave him with a run of the house,
16:47we'll be having parties all week.
16:48Especially with you, trying to get him through these Jack the Lad.
16:51Well, don't start that again.
16:53I didn't start it.
16:54I'm just putting the lid on it.
16:55Mother knows best, eh?
16:57Do I not?
16:58Well, Pauline reckons, you got other ideas?
17:00Oh, yeah.
17:01Yeah.
17:01Yeah, you're getting broody.
17:03Believe it, eh?
17:04I'm about to hear it.
17:05Because that idea's definitely a non-starting, Kath.
17:08Hang on a minute.
17:09I'm not getting broody, right?
17:11But that doesn't mean you can just take it for granted that we're not having any more kids.
17:15Not without a proper discussion between us.
17:17Right.
17:18We're disgusting.
17:19Things change.
17:20I mean, I haven't told to have my say.
17:22What goes on in this family concerns me and all.
17:25That's why I don't want to see you messing Ian about.
17:28You two still at it.
17:30Do you want to talk about anything else?
17:32All right, Ian, son.
17:33We won't.
17:33I did want to talk to you both, but I think I'll leave it now.
17:39Well, that's the last of them.
17:40Hallelujah.
17:41Where have you been, anyway?
17:43Oh, Dan, don't tell me you've been so busy that you missed me.
17:46Now, don't start on about that again.
17:48Every time I think up ideas to fill this place up, you knock them down.
17:51All right, all right.
17:52I'm sorry.
17:52I've been a bit hard on you and I.
17:55Eh?
17:56Well, I've been thinking.
17:57Ha!
17:57Wonders will never cease.
17:59You might be right.
18:00Stripper might be just what this place needs.
18:02Well, you've changed your tune.
18:04Well, I'm not like you, am I?
18:05I do admit when I'm wrong.
18:06Yeah.
18:07That's good of your hands.
18:08I've even gone one further.
18:09I've phoned Sully.
18:11Well, he's not using strippers, is he?
18:13No, not yet, but he's thinking about it.
18:14You'd better get a move on.
18:15Everyone's going to get the same idea.
18:17Yeah.
18:17He said there's a really good act on at the plough.
18:20You get down there tonight, we might be able to book them.
18:22What, just like that?
18:23Well, why not?
18:26Let me get this straight.
18:28You're setting me off to look at a stripper.
18:30Yeah, that's right.
18:32And you're not bothered?
18:33No, why should I be?
18:35I mean, it's not like sex to you, is it?
18:37It's a commodity.
18:38Like the pub, something to put the prices up.
18:39Yeah.
18:41Yeah.
18:42Yeah.
18:42Yeah.
18:43Well, go on then.
18:45Go and put your best suit on, get yourself all dollied up.
18:47Go out and have a nice time.
18:50I'll look after the bar.
18:54I thought I'd come and see what all the excitement was about.
18:56Feel free to buzz off and come back with a bottle.
18:59We're getting a bit low.
19:00It's supposed to be working.
19:02Anyway, they're closed now.
19:03Oh, I'm sure you and Deng will come to some arrangement here.
19:06Come here.
19:06No chance.
19:07He's just being tight here.
19:09If I'd known all this was going on, I would have brought my party hat.
19:14What's going on?
19:16Your mother is leading the community astray.
19:19Do you?
19:19Mm-hmm.
19:20You know what I'm saying?
19:21Now we've got work to do.
19:24What's up, Cheryl?
19:26I'll have a dab or whatever that is, please.
19:28No, you won't.
19:29Because we're getting a bit low and I'm not wasting whatever it is on you.
19:32Oh, come on.
19:33It's a celebration.
19:35School's over.
19:36I finally managed to keep my brother out of the building.
19:38Yes, and onto the doll.
19:41If Dot's going to be away, you're going to be short-handed, aren't you?
19:43Well, I could do a couple of shifts.
19:45Yeah, all right.
19:45I'll have a word with the governors.
19:47Oh, great.
19:47Need the money for me holiday.
19:48Right.
19:49You ought to go and see the doctor, you know.
19:52I'm not ill.
19:53I'm just tired.
19:58Well, at least yours ain't getting divorced.
20:00Oh, I couldn't take that out of me.
20:01Oh, it's okay.
20:02What do you mean, okay?
20:04Well, at school it makes it a bit different, right?
20:06Know what I mean?
20:07But I wouldn't let him or her know that.
20:08Oh, you'll crack you off.
20:10You know, it's just the splitting yourself down the middle, I hate you.
20:13I mean, I have to keep a diary giving them both equal time.
20:16Only she's winning at the moment because of homework.
20:19Well, I can't study at this place, can I?
20:20Have you seen the state of it?
20:22Yeah.
20:23I'm trying to get to laugh, you old man, innit?
20:25Yeah.
20:26But what do you think I should do?
20:27Don't ask me.
20:29I'm not exactly the world's greatest authority on parents now, am I?
20:32Mind you, I'm not exactly the world's greatest authority on kids, are you?
20:35Kids.
20:36I hate that word.
20:37Makes us sound like baby goats.
20:42Here.
20:42Have you found anyone to take over while you're away yet?
20:44It's all in hand.
20:45What's that mean?
20:46I spoke to Pete this morning.
20:48Oh, what's he say?
20:49He's thinking about it.
20:50He won't do it.
20:51You know he won't.
20:52I'm going to be lumbered as usual, aren't I?
20:53Oh, don't start.
20:54I'll sort something out, okay?
20:55Well, you better.
20:57Because if you don't, I might just close the bar and have Olaudini's cell.
21:03What do you want me to do about it?
21:14It's not as if it's any of our business.
21:17That's a terrible thing to say, Sue.
21:19Oh?
21:19I just think there's nothing wrong with being concerned.
21:21We're all concerned, okay?
21:23It's just the question of what we do about it.
21:25Well, I think it should come from you, Andy.
21:26After all, you're the nurse.
21:27Yeah, and a children's ward.
21:28I mean, the kids get sent near by doctors.
21:30I don't stand in the street corners tidying for custody.
21:33But she'd listen to you if you told her to see the doctor.
21:36That's right.
21:36You're the professional.
21:37Well, she must be seeing a healthist as it is.
21:39Yeah, but you know what their caseload's like.
21:41And she's not exactly going to thank me for interfering.
21:44But it doesn't have to be official, though, does it?
21:47No, but I just can't seem to talk to her these days.
21:50She still treats me like a kid.
21:52I mean, a child.
21:53Look, I know Mia and I have had our differences.
21:56But she only wants the best for you.
21:59She's the one who's always done with the school
22:00and given the teachers what for.
22:02Oh, yeah, she's great at telling people what to do,
22:04especially us.
22:05It's listening she's no good at.
22:07You're going to end up with nothing.
22:10What do you mean?
22:11Well, I mean the house, the furniture, the carpets.
22:14I know it's all supposed to be sorted out in the divorce and that,
22:17but you've written it all off, haven't you?
22:19Well, easy come, easy go.
22:23She's the one who chose most of it anyway.
22:25Oh, fine, great.
22:26But just remember this.
22:27I'm not one of the fittings.
22:29The divorce is between you and Mum, Dad, not me.
22:32And I want to see you because I want to see you,
22:34and that's the same for Mum if that's what she wants.
22:37But the bottom line is,
22:39from now on, I'm going to do what I want.
22:42Oh, so you've got it all sorted out there, huh?
22:45No, well, not quite.
22:46There's no point even trying with Mum.
22:47She doesn't want to listen.
22:50So, what's up?
22:53I want to leave school.
22:57Yeah.
23:00Well, she's not going to be too keen on that.
23:03Nor am I.
23:04I mean, we have always hoped you would stay on for your A-levels,
23:07or at least do a course of the tech.
23:08But what about me, what I want?
23:10Yeah, look.
23:12Wait until you get to your O-levels results,
23:14and I'll have a talk with her.
23:15If you should say anything before that, it would only cause trouble.
23:17No, no, you don't understand.
23:18I want to leave now.
23:20I don't want to go back next term.
23:21Yeah, but...
23:22What about your exams?
23:24I don't care about the exams.
23:26They've had enough.
23:27Look, I'm 16,
23:27and she can't stop me from leaving school.
23:30And that's exactly what I'm going to do.
23:32I don't know what all the fuss is about.
23:34I felt faint, that's all.
23:35I'm fine now.
23:37This room's enough to make anyone feel ill.
23:41She'll need you some tea.
23:47Look at that damp there.
23:49That's a new patch, isn't it?
23:51Yeah, it's always worse when it's been raining.
23:53Aren't you worried about little Annie, though?
23:55I mean, it can't be doing her any good.
23:56I wrap her up well enough.
23:57She'll soon yell if she's not warm enough.
23:59I think if I had children,
24:01I wouldn't want to bring them up in a room like this.
24:02Yeah.
24:03Well, you haven't got children, have you?
24:05So you wouldn't know.
24:06Beggars aren't the choosers.
24:06When I have children, if I have them,
24:08they'll be planned,
24:09so everything will be ready.
24:13Sorry.
24:15Look, that's what you ought to do,
24:17is start making plans.
24:19Work out exactly what you need,
24:20get it all down on paper.
24:22You've got rights, you know.
24:23There's all sorts of organisations that can help you.
24:26You ever tried talking to people like that?
24:29It's all right if you go about it the right way.
24:31It's all right if you've got a posh accent
24:33and you don't really need anything, you mean.
24:35If you're skint, they just don't want to know.
24:37They treat you like rubbish.
24:38That's why you've got to plan things out.
24:41I'll come with you sometime.
24:43We'll sort out a whole load of leaflets,
24:44find out exactly what you're entitled to.
24:46Oh, what's it to you anyway?
24:48Look, it's my life, it's my kid,
24:50and it's none of your business.
24:52I'm only trying to help.
24:53Yeah, well, don't bother.
24:54Nobody asked you to.
24:59Look, Mary...
25:00Look, just clear off, will you?
25:01I don't need you looking down your nose at me.
25:04I can sort me own life out.
25:15Hello, darling, you're back early.
25:18Didn't you stay for the second show?
25:20What do you think?
25:21Oh, well, I suppose if the act's really good,
25:23you know within the first ten minutes, don't you?
25:26You're really enjoying this, aren't you?
25:28Then, of course I am. I'm happy for you.
25:31When did you book it for?
25:33I didn't.
25:34Was it any good?
25:36I'm going upstairs.
25:38Well, all right, darling, I'll see you later.
25:41What's the matter with Dan?
25:42He's got a face as long as a kite.
25:44Yeah, well, I'm afraid it's my fault, Sue.
25:46I sent him off to look at a stripper.
25:48He wants one for the pub.
25:50Well, you don't look lucky seeing a stripper,
25:51not unless she looks like the back of a bus.
25:54I know, I sent him to the plough.
25:56What have you done?
25:57Well, there's end party there.
25:58It was a male stripper.
26:02You know, I'm fed up.
26:04Yeah, me too.
26:05I tell you, if either one of my parents
26:06has another go at me again tonight,
26:08I'll chuck this milk all over them, I swear.
26:11Mark eating with us.
26:12Oh, you tell me.
26:13Probably out getting drunk somewhere
26:15to celebrate his leaving school.
26:16Yeah, what's he going to do?
26:17I can see him now.
26:19First footman at Buckingham Palace.
26:21Oh, good morning, Your Majesty.
26:22Shall I take your poodles for a walk now?
26:24It's cool this the Queen's got.
26:26Eh?
26:26Not poodles.
26:27Might as well be elephants all the poodles that make for him.
26:30You know, he'll be up the dole shop
26:31until he starts drawing his pension.
26:35I don't know why he don't go on YTS.
26:37They've got to offer you one, you know.
26:38I might reckon he's a con.
26:40He reckons he's only the bright sparks
26:41will get anything decent.
26:42He goes,
26:43I'll be three months hurting the sweep up,
26:44three months scaring the bogs
26:45and the rest clearing the boss's car.
26:47Let him keep it.
26:48Oh, he's just a lazy slob if you ask me.
26:50You'll be all right, though.
26:51Art and Kath reckons you're going to get a fistful of GCEs.
26:53Yeah, Dad reckons I'm a dead cert for needlework.
26:57Here we go.
26:58Right, your Aunt Paulie said you wanted to see us.
27:00Yeah, I was going to send you an invitation,
27:02but I never got round to it.
27:04What's all this?
27:05Ian's cooking a full family feast.
27:06Oh, great, saved me a job.
27:08Yeah, do you want a hand, Ian?
27:09No, it's all right, thanks.
27:10I love hanging a tight all night.
27:11What?
27:12You're not going anywhere?
27:13Well, he's boxing on late.
27:14It'd be a good fight.
27:15I don't want to miss it.
27:16Where's your dad?
27:17Oh, he's upstairs.
27:18Oh, right.
27:20Yeah, I don't understand you.
27:22You're more interested in baiting lately
27:23than beating Bantamweight.
27:25What's the matter with you?
27:26Don't stop all that again, will you?
27:26Yeah, where's that guard I told you, eh?
27:28Come, where's that guard?
27:28Look, I'll knock your spark out, then.
27:29Oh, just leave it out, will you?
27:31Come on there.
27:33Thought you'd make a good box for once, son.
27:35Come on, old son.
27:36Oh, snap off, will you?
27:38You're going to be a real pain, you are.
27:40Ian, there's no need to torture your dad like that.
27:42And you're just as bad.
27:43What?
27:43I'm just at it.
27:44I'm fed up with it.
27:45You telling me to do one thing, you telling me to do another,
27:47well, I'm a human being too, you know.
27:48Why don't you let me do what I want to do?
27:50What about your meal?
27:51Oh, stuff the meal, stuff the lot of you.
28:12Would you like to eat out before you try on there.
28:13You made a meal.
28:13We'll be happy.
28:13And I'm just at the에.
28:35You're so nice to have alright.
