00:24How's that?
00:25Oh, very artistic, as your mother would say.
00:27Oh, there's nothing wrong with this here.
00:29All right, all right. No need to start a fight.
00:31It wasn't.
00:33All slagging up you these days.
00:34Either that or doing a big smoothie.
00:36Oh, I'm not that bad.
00:38Too sensitive to you. That's your trouble.
00:40And that's another word your mother's very keen on.
00:43Shall I get a taste?
00:44I'm freezing.
00:46What's the matter with you?
00:48This ain't cold.
00:49Where did we get a real winter?
00:50I'm not used to it like you. Your body's hardened to it.
00:53Well, if we've got a pamper to the little lads, every little whim.
00:56Here, take that to your grandpa and tell her the onions should be oranges.
01:00I'll change them later, all right?
01:03Oi.
01:04It ain't too heavy for you, is it?
01:08You're in the way.
01:12That tap's still dripping upstairs.
01:15Kept me awake half the night.
01:16Needs a new washer or something.
01:18I'll fix it this afternoon.
01:20Oh, it's nearly that now.
01:22Your son's still snoring in the front room like a pig.
01:26I want to do him there next.
01:28Mark, shift yourself.
01:29And all this noise is not doing my headache any good.
01:34Here, move back there, will you?
01:36You're in the way again.
01:37Story of my life.
01:39Of course, he ought to be down the job centre
01:41or getting on one of them schemes.
01:43If he gets used to being a layabout, he'll become a habit.
01:46I'll get out from under your feet, Mum.
01:48I mean, I can't sit about enjoying myself all day.
01:50Can I?
01:51It might become an habit.
01:52Yeah, go and buy that washer.
01:54Yeah.
01:55Mark!
01:56Hey, Mark!
01:58Mark!
02:01He's not in there.
02:02Did he come in last night?
02:03What the hell should I know?
02:05Well, maybe he went out early this morning.
02:07Early?
02:07Don't know the meaning of the word.
02:09I'll go and help Paul in with the shopping.
02:12What's your son?
02:13All right, Uncle?
02:13Yeah.
02:14Hey.
02:14Be advised by your wise and favourite uncle.
02:17Don't say a word to upset the Queen of the Amazons in there
02:19or you will not live to celebrate your next birthday.
02:23Hello.
02:24How's it going?
02:25I'll just leave you through out here, Greg.
02:26Oh, there's a good lad.
02:27Yeah, I'll better get him back, all right?
02:29Hang on.
02:30Only Dad's on his own, see?
02:31Go on, he can manage.
02:32I want to talk to you.
02:34Listen.
02:35I'll come up to the flat as soon as Dad's packed up the store.
02:39You don't have to, Greg.
02:41Oh, no, Ian.
02:42It's better we clear this business up once and for all.
02:44I'm not having you upset because they can't see what's tearing them in the face.
02:48Here.
02:49You leave the talking to your gran.
02:51I'll sort them out.
02:54Hey!
02:55All right, darling.
02:56Hey, got him a bit big to be stuck in a chair all day, Sue.
02:59You should let him out here with us.
03:01He's getting trampled underfoot.
03:07Hey, you got me dead, mate?
03:08Yeah.
03:09Yeah, me too.
03:10It's great, isn't it?
03:10Yeah, it will be as long as Grandpa, Turner.
03:12You're getting me dead longer.
03:13I just know it.
03:14You're great?
03:14Yeah.
03:15Yeah, got two cups of tea.
03:16Can I have two cheese rolls, please, Sue?
03:21Hello?
03:21Our cab?
03:23No, he isn't here.
03:24And he's never here.
03:27Hello?
03:28Well, who is this?
03:31Hello?
03:34Toast burning, Sue.
03:36Sue, can I have two cheese rolls, two cups of tea, please?
03:38Oh, just toast anyway.
03:40Meh!
03:41Never mind, Tone.
03:43Charcoal gives you a glossy coat.
03:45And a moist nose.
03:47My Willie eats lots of charcoal.
03:49Morning!
03:50How's it going?
03:52All right.
03:52All right, Tone.
03:53Where the hell have you been?
03:55I've been here.
03:56I've been up to my eyes.
03:57I've actually been with Mary washing her bloody...
04:01Money!
04:03Money?
04:04What money?
04:04Ten pounds in each.
04:05Just the right second post.
04:07It's the golden circle, love.
04:09It's starting to come good.
04:12Sweaty clear.
04:13Big deal.
04:14This is just a start.
04:15We could be for two or three hundred pounds.
04:17Maybe more.
04:18Hey!
04:19Do you hear that, sir?
04:20We're going to be rich.
04:21Hey, come on.
04:22Hey, that being so.
04:24Maybe you could stand me a new set of tea.
04:27You could borrow some of Ethel's.
04:31When I borrow Ethel's, I want the whole thing.
04:35Oh, I don't believe in borrowing.
04:38Take me, I'm three.
04:41See you.
04:42Hey, you've got a job on, huh?
04:44I don't know yet.
04:45I've got to price it now.
04:47Well, if you get it and you need any help...
04:48Sorry, Arthur.
04:49It's just a ten-minute little decorating thing.
04:52And I've got all the help I need.
04:55See you.
04:56Bye, Tom.
04:58Bye.
04:58See you later.
04:58See you later.
04:59See you later, Kelby.
05:00Hey, Dad, hang about.
05:01See you later.
05:04Do you want something, E?
05:06Yes, please.
05:06Can I have two cheese rolls and two cups of tea, please?
05:09Ali and Sue have been sent 20 pounds.
05:12Ali says there's a lot more to come.
05:14They could make thousands.
05:15Very nice.
05:16Oh, dangerous if you ask me.
05:19You know what Ali's like.
05:21Oh, pity it couldn't have happened to somebody more, you know.
05:25Mm-hmm.
05:25Well, I mean, if you remember, Lofty and I were in it till you tore up our bits and pieces.
05:33Not that I need a lot of money.
05:34I mean, I'm quite happy as I am.
05:36But Lofty, well, where is he, by the way?
05:40I haven't seen or heard of him for days.
05:42Has he gone away?
05:44No, he's in his room.
05:45Oh.
05:46Is he ill?
05:47No, I wish it were that simple, Ethel.
05:48He's not ill, just unemployed with no prospects.
05:51Nothing to do.
05:52All day to do with him.
05:53Yes, but he can't sit up there all day moping.
05:57I mean, he's in the prime of life.
05:59I imagine that's just what makes it so depressing for him, Ethel.
06:01The world should be his oyster, only the world doesn't want to know.
06:05Oh, well, I'll go up and cheer him up, Lofty.
06:10No, no.
06:11No tea and sympathy, Ethel.
06:12It won't be welcome.
06:13No, no.
06:14What we've got to do is to find a way to make him feel useful.
06:18Give him a sense of purpose.
06:20Yes.
06:20Well, I see why he's fed up, but I mean, he really ought to cheer up a bit.
06:26There's always somebody worse off than you are.
06:29Yes.
06:30It's like the doctor in the hurry and his car won't start.
06:32No, then.
06:33I've got damp in the plugs again.
06:35Do you want to push, Doctor?
06:37Oh, that's very emancipated of you, girls.
06:40Hi, here's Lofty.
06:41Lofty, you'll give a hand, won't you?
06:43Eh?
06:44You see, girls, the age of chivalry is not yet dead.
06:47You need a bump start here, Lofty.
06:48Oh, yeah.
06:51Right.
06:54Right.
06:55Ready when you are.
06:56Come on, Superman.
06:57Get the handbrake off, Doctor.
07:01I'll give it to you.
07:03Come on.
07:13She's not going to have it, Doc.
07:14Oh, I think so.
07:15Let's try again.
07:16Of course, you know what you need, don't you, Lofty?
07:19Hear me, Ed, looking at me.
07:20Nonsense.
07:20No.
07:20What you need is something to occupy your mind.
07:23Like another asthma attack.
07:25Ready when you are.
07:28Right.
07:29I'll put it in the gear, Doc.
07:30It's in gear.
07:32Hey.
07:33Hey.
07:37Handbrake off.
07:38Yep.
07:40Oh, that's it.
07:41I won't pay off.
07:42It's punished me off for the rest of the day.
07:44Look, you've got to give it some gas and all.
07:45Here.
07:46Get out.
07:46Let me have a go.
07:47There's so many lonely people in the world, Lofty.
07:50All of them thinking that they've got nothing to offer.
07:52But if only they had the confidence to reach out, eh?
07:58Let's push around to the back straight, shall we?
08:01Ladies.
08:03Okay.
08:05You take Mary, for example.
08:07Oh?
08:08Mary, with a baby.
08:10Oh, her.
08:11Yeah.
08:11Lonely, helpless.
08:13And that room she's been put in is a disgrace.
08:16I'm going around to the housing department just as soon as I finish my calls today.
08:20Oh, yeah.
08:21Right.
08:23Not that complaining will do much good.
08:25Not in the short term.
08:26The system's so overloaded.
08:29The health of this has been around to give her a bit of advice about bottle feeding.
08:32That'll help her to cope a bit better.
08:34But what that girl needs more than anything, Lofty, is that very old-fashioned thing.
08:39A good neighbor.
08:40Well, she's got Ethel.
08:41Ah, yeah.
08:41Well, we've all got Ethel.
08:43Bless our heart.
08:43No, no, I was thinking of someone more Mary's own age.
08:47Someone she can relate to.
08:49And someone with a practical turn of mind who can do things for her and make her life
08:53just that bit more comfortable, you know.
08:56Sort of Sir Galahad, if you like.
09:00You tightening me?
09:02Shall we have another try?
09:06Right?
09:20I've had it.
09:22I'll need at least an hour on me puffer now.
09:24Oh, well.
09:24Look, she lives in there, Lofty.
09:26Upstairs.
09:28Lofty, I'm talking about helping a fellow human being.
09:32You've got so much to offer.
09:35Thanks for all your help.
09:43What was all that about?
09:47Well, you warm enough.
09:48St. Cunt.
09:49Sorry, I spoke.
09:51Where's Annie Paul then?
09:52Doing her shopping.
09:54You should have put another jumper on, you know.
09:57Don't fuss, Mum.
10:02I didn't want you on that stall today.
10:04You've got a lot of studying to do before you get back to school.
10:07You should have in words with your father.
10:09Oh, but Dad says...
10:09No matter what Dad says.
10:12You can't get a GCE in front of bed, you know.
10:18If you were a gentleman, Den, you'd offer to give me hands.
10:21I told Sharon to bring them in.
10:22She told me you told her not to bother.
10:25Lying little cow.
10:26Like a dead.
10:27Where is she, anyway?
10:29She's gone off with Michelle.
10:31Well, she'll pull her weight while I'm away.
10:32Don't you worry about that.
10:33Well, she's going to ask you, won't she, don't you?
10:34Because I can't manage on me arm.
10:37Well, I was going to ask Lofty to cover for me while I was away.
10:40Oh.
10:41We're back being in all departments or just behind the bar.
10:44Angie, I thought we agreed about this Spanish trip.
10:47I don't remember agreeing to anything.
10:49But the microwave I got you.
10:51Ah, well, I never said you couldn't go, did I?
10:53But I would like the name and address of the hotel you're staying in.
10:56Ah, we might have an emergency while you're away.
10:58Emergency?
10:58What sort of emergency?
11:00Well, I might drop dead from exhaustion.
11:02I suppose you'd come home for the funeral.
11:04Well, I'll have to give you a ring when I get to Spain.
11:06I haven't got the particulars yet.
11:07Den, you can't go if you don't know where you're staying, can you?
11:10Of course I don't know.
11:11That's the whole point of these cheap packages.
11:13They fit you in when you get there.
11:15Well, they won't have any trouble fitting you in anywhere, will they?
11:19Oh, damn!
11:21Oh, me bra strap's gone.
11:22I'm not surprised.
11:23It must be bloody hard work.
11:25I beg your pardon?
11:26Those crisp boxes, then, aren't they hard work?
11:28Hmm.
11:28Well, I'm going upstairs to change.
11:47Jan?
11:48Den?
11:49I've been trying to get you all morning.
11:51Well, it's been a slight change of plan.
11:54No, no, no, no, no.
11:54Of course I'm still coming.
11:56It's just, um, I need my ticket earlier.
11:58Can you send it around to me?
12:00Well, because she's coming to the bleeding airport with me, that's why.
12:04It's your lucky day.
12:05Here, if your battery's kaput, I'm not going to give you a hand.
12:08What are you on about?
12:08I'm about to find a drink, Lofty.
12:10Why, what have I done?
12:11You are the first person I met since I decided to buy a drink for the first person I met.
12:15I think everyone's gone mad today.
12:17I'm celebrating my good fortune.
12:19Yeah, it's all right for some.
12:20Are you with us, Lofty?
12:21What?
12:22Are you going to beam down from Mars and have a swift hour for what?
12:25Oh, yeah, yeah, all right.
12:27What are you all sprouxed out for?
12:29Well, I've been told to help a fellow human being.
12:32Something about Sir Gallard and me having a lot on offer.
12:34You're right.
12:35Everyone is mad today.
12:37Look, I said I was going to buy a drink for the first person I met, and you're the first
12:41person, okay?
12:41That's very nice, yeah, only I can't stay long.
12:44Well, if you don't want a drink with me, don't.
12:45No, no, no offence.
12:47I'll have a scotch.
12:48A scotch?
12:49If that's all right.
12:50All right.
12:51Two scotches, please, then.
12:52And one for yourself, if you fancy it.
12:54Cheers.
12:54I'll take you up, won't it, for this once?
12:56We're celebrating a golden circle.
12:57You jammy torag.
12:59Have you struck lucky?
13:00Twenty quid came in the post today out the blue.
13:02I've got a feeling there's more to come.
13:06You okay, Lofty?
13:07Yeah, yeah, fine.
13:13Cheers.
13:13Cheers, mate.
13:14Good wealth.
13:16Yeah, cheers.
13:24Right, thanks.
13:25Hang about.
13:27Yeah, where are you off to all ponced up anyway?
13:29I've just got to go and visit somebody.
13:31You haven't got another job, have you?
13:33Job?
13:33No.
13:34Only I was going to ask you a favour, like...
13:37Yeah?
13:38Yeah.
13:44You know, I'm off for a week.
13:45I'm a bit stuck for something to cover for me, like...
13:49Someone I can trust, you know?
13:53So I was wondering if you could help me out.
13:55But me?
13:55You only gave me the push last week.
13:57Yeah, but I didn't want to do that, you know that.
14:01Well, any chance?
14:02What, all week?
14:04I'll make it worth your while.
14:06Yeah, all right.
14:08Cheers, love.
14:09You're a pal.
14:14Um, sorry I took so long to answer the door.
14:16Eh?
14:17Don't matter.
14:18Better safe than sorry, eh?
14:20Yeah.
14:32They caught him, you know.
14:34Nick Cotton, the bloke who, um...
14:36I heard.
14:37He's been properly charged and everything now.
14:39You know, sent to court, reminded for trial.
14:42They're doing him for everything from murder down.
14:44Don't expect we'll see him around here for a while.
14:48Anyway, we're not all like him.
14:50That's all right, then, isn't it?
14:52Yeah.
14:53Is that why you came?
14:55Sorry?
14:55You could tell me that.
14:57No, not especially, no.
14:59Ah.
15:00Ethel send you, then.
15:03Ethel?
15:04No, of course not.
15:05I just thought I should see if I could try and be, like, a good neighbour.
15:09You know, see if there was anything you needed doing.
15:12Well, it's not much of a world, is it, if you can't reach out?
15:17Reach out?
15:18Ah, so that stuck-up cow from opposite put you up to this.
15:20You know, the one that works in the bank.
15:22I hate do-gooders.
15:24No, I told you, it was my idea.
15:25I just thought there might be something I could do that Ethel can't.
15:28Such as what?
15:30Well, you know, sort of practical things.
15:34Ah.
15:35Got a magic wand, then, have we?
15:37Well, there must be some in.
15:38Yeah.
15:40You can hold the baby.
15:42She'll need a burp while I clean the bottle.
15:44Come on, honey.
15:46Put her over your shoulder.
15:49That's right.
15:52Just got her onto powdered milk.
15:54She's going great, isn't it?
15:55Uh-huh.
15:56Sleeping better, too.
15:57Great.
16:00Mary.
16:01You make such a thing out of keeping this bottle clean.
16:05Sterilising it, scrubbing it.
16:07Not easy when you have to keep lugging off to the bathroom for water.
16:10Mary.
16:11What's up?
16:12I'm not sure.
16:17Oh, Annie.
16:19Hey.
16:20I'm ever so sorry.
16:21You'd better put it under the water, quick.
16:23Oh, it don't matter.
16:26She's got good taste, as it happens.
16:27My mum gave me this jumper.
16:29I never liked it, either.
16:30Nice one, Annie.
16:32Same again, is it?
16:33Yeah.
16:33Tire, love.
16:34Yes.
16:36I remember when my Albert died.
16:38Oh, I'll never forget that day.
16:40He was only a nipper then.
16:42But, you know, getting in a certain light is the image of his granddad.
16:46Well, what are you going to do, then, Lou?
16:48My duty.
16:49Of course, they'll call me an interfering old bag, but it's got to be done.
16:53Hello, Arthur.
16:54You'd better get your skates on.
16:56We're just about to close.
16:57Here.
16:57Give him off.
16:58Thanks, all the same, Mum, but I'm just looking for Tony.
17:00Possibility of work.
17:02How's your hair with this jet?
17:03No.
17:04Here.
17:04Did you remember to get a washer for that tack?
17:07It's on me list, Mum.
17:08It's on me list.
17:12Well, someone's giving her the yump, and I wouldn't like to be in their shoes.
17:20Hello, how's Kev?
17:23Who's speaking, please?
17:26Hello.
17:27Look, who is this?
17:29Hello?
17:37Wrong number.
17:39Some woman.
17:40May I speak with Ali, please?
17:43Hang up.
17:44No message.
17:45I'm sure she's the one who rang this morning.
17:48Nah.
17:48Poppy's grey-haired granny.
17:50Heard about the golden circle.
17:52Hey.
17:54What's that for?
17:55Sitting on.
17:56It's a stall.
17:57I mean, you've only got one chair.
17:58What would you give the Queen Mother comfort her?
18:00You couldn't expect her to sit on the bed.
18:01I can't take your furniture.
18:03That's all right.
18:04It's not mine.
18:04It's Dr Legg's.
18:05What?
18:05Well, he wouldn't mind.
18:07I mean, he's quite a nice bloke, Dr Legg.
18:09Anyway, it was only going to be chucked out,
18:10so it's good as if it knew you a turn.
18:12Look, it's okay.
18:13Hey.
18:14Well, as long as you keep your feet on the floor.
18:18All right.
18:20No, you can't start Henry now.
18:22I've only just got her off to sleep.
18:23No, it's all right.
18:24We'll start with this.
18:25Drafted splendor.
18:26It's like a wind tunnel, isn't it?
18:28The windows are rotten.
18:30It won't do any good.
18:33Nothing's ever hopeless.
18:34When I was in the army, we used to camp out in some riot holes,
18:37you know, mud up round your armpits and all that.
18:40You'd be surprised how comfy you make a ditch.
18:42You've just got to think positive.
18:44I can't manage on my own, you know.
18:46Yeah, sure you can.
18:48And I'm not thick.
18:49I never said you was, did I?
18:51Someone's put you up to this good neighbour rubbish.
18:53No, they haven't.
18:54I told you.
18:55Well, I don't like handouts.
18:58I've got feelings too, you know.
18:59I've got feelings too, you know.
19:14Hello?
19:17Look, I don't know who you are,
19:19but if you phone again, I'm going to get the call traced.
19:22Oh...
19:24Oh, nah!
19:25Oh!
19:27Am I too late?
19:29No.
19:32Skinny of your teeth, though.
19:35God, I don't know where you two fellas put all this to you.
19:37You've got hollow legs or something.
19:40What's up with you, love?
19:41Every time I've seen you today,
19:42you've had a face like a camel's back side.
19:44Oh, I'm all right.
19:46Girlfriend trouble?
19:47Nah, parent trouble.
19:48They've been on at me a lot.
19:50Well, you're lucky they take the bother.
19:52Yeah, Gran's going to sort them out.
19:54Then I'll be right in the car, I'll see.
20:01Hello, Tom.
20:02Did you get that job?
20:04Nah, some damn cowboy got him before me, yeah.
20:07Yeah, no, innit?
20:08Here, you seen our mark on your travels?
20:10No, not today.
20:11Why, you lost him?
20:12Yeah, I don't know whether to be worried or grateful.
20:15See ya.
20:16See ya, Arthur.
20:17Evening, Doc.
20:22I'm going to do a bit of drilling tonight.
20:26Is that okay?
20:27Do what you want, Tony.
20:34Evening, Doctor.
20:35Oh, hello, Lofty.
20:37You've been shopping, eh?
20:39No, no, I've had a really good afternoon.
20:41I wish I could say the same.
20:42I've done what you said about being a good neighbour.
20:44I've been helping that Mary.
20:45Oh.
20:45Well, just a few bits and pieces, really.
20:47That placement's pulling down, doesn't it?
20:49Look, I'll fix the window.
20:51I'll put up a new line for the anatomy.
20:52She was well pleased.
20:53At least, I think she was.
20:55Would you like a drink, Lofty?
20:57What, now?
20:58Yes, I'm going to have a drink before evening surgery.
21:00And you may join me if you wish.
21:02Yeah, right.
21:04Right.
21:06Evening.
21:08Hello, Doctor.
21:09We don't often see you in here of an evening, do we?
21:11Well, everyone's so concerned for my professional propriety.
21:14I'm most gratified.
21:17Yes.
21:18Well, what can I get you?
21:19I'll have a large glass of red wine, please, Angie.
21:21Right.
21:23No, make it a bottle.
21:24And four glasses.
21:26Something full-bodied.
21:28A bottle?
21:29Mm-hmm.
21:30Well, let's see what we've got, shall we?
21:36Well, there's this.
21:38French.
21:41And, er...
21:43There's this.
21:46French.
21:47This one's very good.
21:49Er, Van de Table 84.
21:52Oh, splendid year.
21:53I'll take it.
21:54Is that all right for you, Doctor?
21:56Yeah, terrific.
21:57Right then, Doctor.
21:58That'll be £3.75, please.
22:01Shall I be Mother?
22:02No, no, no.
22:03There's trouble.
22:04Here you are.
22:04There's four.
22:08Fetch the glasses and the change, will you, Doctor?
22:11Er, forgive me for troubling.
22:14You're just the two people I want you to see.
22:16Hi, Doctor.
22:17May I?
22:17Yeah, sure.
22:18Fine.
22:19Deb's gone early for a change, so we thought we'd do this.
22:22Oh, splendid.
22:22Well, why don't you join me?
22:24What's this then?
22:24A celebration?
22:26Oh, it's a stirrup cunk.
22:27Before we ride off in pursuit of the Philistine.
22:31I visited the offices of the housing department this afternoon to see what could be done about
22:36Mary Smith.
22:37Her place isn't nearly as bad as it used to be.
22:39I was told, in a roundabout way, that she's likely to be rehoused eventually.
22:44Oh, that's great, isn't it?
22:46She's likely to be rehoused because the whole of that side of the square may be pulled down.
22:51What?
22:52Pulled down.
22:53Redeveloped.
22:55One of the last unspoiled Victorian squares in East London, and they're talking of destroying it.
22:59They can't do that.
23:01Oh, they can if they're not stopped.
23:02Well, hang about.
23:03The houses on that side of the square are really grotty.
23:05They're part of London's heritage, Lofty.
23:08Yeah, well, I expect Mary would rather have a roof that didn't leak.
23:11Lofty, you don't need to sweep away a piece of history for want of plugging a leaking roof.
23:16Oh, sorry.
23:17Of course, it is only a possibility, an idea that's filtered down from some obscure committee
23:22or other, but the fact that someone somewhere's even suggested it means that we must be on
23:26our guard, ready to fight if and when the need arises.
23:30Now, I look to you, Andy, and to you, Debbie, as informed people to organise our resistance.
23:36Didn't we want to find out what other people think first?
23:38Oh, Andy, everybody's bound to be up in arms.
23:40Lofty's not.
23:41There are families here who've lived here practically since the square was built.
23:45I mean, they're not going to want the character of the place changed.
23:47Yeah, okay, Deb, so that's your opinion.
23:48Well, don't you agree, then?
23:49No, all I'm saying is...
23:50No, Andy's quite right, of course.
23:51We should check local opinion before we do anything.
23:54We'll have a petition, then.
23:55Oh, I think it's early days for that yet, Debbie.
23:57No, perhaps just chatting to people and sounding them out.
24:01There's Ali and some others in the bar going to ask them.
24:03For Pete's sake, you can't go barging and button-hauling people.
24:06Why not?
24:07This is important.
24:08Look, I tell you what, it's time for my evening surgery.
24:11Why not just walk along and we'll talk about it on the way, eh?
24:13Yeah, why not?
24:14Yeah.
24:17You've well finished after what?
24:18I'm going to lock it.
24:19Keep the change.
24:20I think the petition's great.
24:27Yes, my love?
24:30Another stupid red wine or were you going on the wait?
24:33Black orange juice, please.
24:35Yeah.
24:41Oh, God, what's that smell?
24:44Has someone been sick or something?
24:47Ian, come and sit here.
24:48You're making the place look untidy.
24:51I wonder what your mum wants.
24:52I can't remember the last time she paid us a visit.
24:56Oh, perfect timing.
24:57I'll go.
25:03It don't work.
25:04Oh, you're supposed to kick the door.
25:08Stinks, too.
25:09Look, come in.
25:10Just having dinner.
25:11Come and sit down.
25:14Very clean.
25:16A bit too much like hospital for my taste.
25:19Would you like something to eat, Mum?
25:22Don't like messed up food.
25:24I'll have a cup of tea.
25:30So, what's all this in the aid of, eh?
25:32Him.
25:33Ian?
25:34All right, what's he done?
25:35Ain't done nothing, poor little perisher.
25:37It's you.
25:38And her.
25:40What are you on about?
25:42Come to see me, didn't he?
25:44Talk about a state.
25:47Didn't know if it was punch-bored or countersunk.
25:50Boy at 15 in tears.
25:53Don't you start on at him again.
25:55He's a good lad.
25:57Best his family's seen since my hour.
25:59But you two, telling him this, telling him that.
26:02Knagging.
26:03Rown about him all the time.
26:04Why can't you leave the poor little bugger alone?
26:07Ian, finish that in your room.
26:09What's that?
26:09I wouldn't treat a dog the way you treat that boy.
26:13Don't you think you're going a little bit too strong?
26:15I mean, what has it got to do with you?
26:17Well, I'm his gran.
26:19And you're my son.
26:20And I'm 40 years of age.
26:22And you've got no right to come marching into my home
26:24and telling me how to bring up my son, right?
26:27Oh, somebody's got to tell you about it.
26:29Make the right pixie of it, aren't you, at the moment?
26:31Not for the first time.
26:33Two other grandsons I've got somewhere, haven't I?
26:35How old are they now?
26:3719, 20?
26:39What sort of father goes 20 years
26:41without bringing his kids to see their gran?
26:44Oh, for God's sake.
26:45Ain't natural.
26:47Nor's divorce.
26:49Never been a divorce in our family till she come along.
26:52Now, don't start on Kath.
26:53Oh, he's breaking up families.
26:55Riding rush on.
26:56She got what she wants and sobbed the rest.
26:59Why don't they just add up to her for a change?
27:01She's got you screwed to the floor.
27:04And she's doing the same with Ian.
27:06For your information...
27:08Hello?
27:09Who pulled her a change?
27:11For your information,
27:12Pete can go and see his other sons any time he likes.
27:14Then why don't he?
27:15Because their mother he married
27:17and it means interfering in someone else's life.
27:19And there are some of us that think interfering's wrong.
27:22Ian's our son, our son.
27:24Understand?
27:24Pete's a mine.
27:26And if we rar about him,
27:27it's because we care what happens to him.
27:28We want to make sure we give him what's best.
27:30When did you ever give any of your children anything, eh?
27:33Never.
27:34All you ever do is take your selfish old bag.
27:36You sit in that bloody room of yours
27:37like a poisonous great spider,
27:39sucking everybody dry.
27:40Well, you're not sucking me dry
27:42or my husband or my son.
27:44I'm going.
27:45No, you're not going.
27:45I'm throwing you out.
27:46Go on, get out.
27:48Hey, go on.
27:49And if you ever come back here again,
27:50I'll throw you out the bloody window.
27:54Go on, get out.
