00:07Music
00:25Be a nice break for you
00:26It's a hard bit back then, is it?
00:27Well, no, what they say, a change is as good as the rest
00:30I prefer, there's no place like home
00:33Graeme, can I move my stuff into your room while you're away?
00:35No
00:36Why not?
00:36Because I said not, that's why
00:38Look, it makes things a lot easier
00:40I don't want anyone in my room while I'm away, got that?
00:45Yeah, you all packed then?
00:46No
00:47There's plenty of time, I suppose
00:48Only Pete said he was going to get here early
00:50Trying to get rid of me?
00:51No, no, no, no
00:52I meant I'd give you a hand if you wanted, that's all
00:54I'm not senile yet
00:57I can stick a few things in me bag when I'm ready
01:00Yeah
01:01I thought you were going to finish your own work this morning
01:03You did nothing over the weekend
01:04I'll get it off Brenda in the playground
01:06It's your own work, you do it yourself
01:08Go on, you've got half an hour
01:09Look, we haven't even got the set of books
01:11It's not enough to go round with all the cuts and everything
01:13What you haven't got is the energy and application
01:15Go on, get on with it
01:18Get away with murder if I let her
01:21Right, shall we get on with that packing then?
01:23I'll have another cup of tea first
01:26A decent one this time
01:27I know, make another problem
01:28I'll do it
01:30I told you, I want a decent cup
01:32I don't know how you lot will manage without me
01:37Of course, there's one good thing about you having the car off the road
01:41Yeah?
01:41Well, it means we get to see a bit more of each other for a change
01:44Yeah, that's right
01:45Look, we've got to start looking on the bright side
01:47Yeah, I mean, usually it's just work, work, a bit more work
01:51A few hours, Kit
01:52That's usually on me own, cos you're out driving
01:54Oh, I don't know
01:55We always manage to get together sometime
01:58Yeah, at least I haven't managed to put a text on that yet
02:00Look, we'll be all right
02:04As long as we've got each other, we'll be all right
02:06I mean, it's not as if we haven't been hard up before
02:09And we've always got through it
02:10Money ain't everything
02:11No
02:12Helps you to be miserable in comfort, though
02:14You're not miserable, are you?
02:15No, like I said, we'll be all right
02:18How much have you got left?
02:19Eh?
02:20Money
02:20I'm totally skint
02:21What I thought
02:22Well, I've got £1.50
02:26I reckon we ought to split that down the middle
02:28That way you'll be able to get a pint at lunchtime
02:30Nah, Sue, I couldn't take it
02:32Go on, you deserve it
02:34What if you're sure?
02:35Of course I don't
02:36Look, don't porn it
02:38You wouldn't be the same without it
02:41True
02:42I'll get it
02:43All right, yeah
02:45Shh
02:51Hello, Lofty
02:52Hello, Lofty
02:54Please, it's just up
02:56It's Lofty
02:57Watch your hand
02:58Oh, what's up?
02:59Couldn't you sleep?
03:00No, I just thought I'd get started bright and early
03:01Oh
03:03Well, the sooner you start, the sooner I'll get back on the road
03:05I guess the keys, then
03:06How long do you reckon it'll take?
03:08Well, I'll give you my professional opinion when I've had a proper look at it, eh?
03:13No, I haven't done nothing like this for ages
03:16I'm really looking forward to it
03:19He will be all right, won't he?
03:21He's hardly trained
03:22He would say was Hitler
03:25He's our ever in us, Ben
03:27He's dropped a couple of stitches, Ethel
03:31What?
03:32Should we pick him up for you?
03:33Oh, oh, would you love?
03:35That'd be terrific
03:36I thought you hated knitting
03:38I do
03:40If you ever go to jail
03:42I'll go bail
03:44If you're...
03:45Oh, George, you're cheerful, aren't you?
03:46Yes, well, it's a nice day, isn't it?
03:48Not from where I'm standing, it's not
03:51Come on, Missy, you'll be late for school
03:53And your dad said he can't give you a lift in the car
03:55He's taking it in for a service
03:56At least I'll get there on time for a change
03:58Can be fair, then, I'm skint
03:59Yes, OK
04:02Friendship, friendship, everything is friendly
04:04Ethel
04:04Yes?
04:05I wanted to talk to you
04:06Oh, well, talk away
04:08I don't know how to start, really
04:09I've been trying to talk to you about it for ages
04:11Well, we keep getting interfering with, don't we?
04:14Yeah
04:15What's your problem?
04:16Blokes
04:16Oh, well, I gathered that
04:18Well, not just blokes, it's a trouble they cause
04:20Well, I gathered that as well
04:21I know what you mean
04:23Do you?
04:25Some things never change
04:27No, I suppose there was girls having babies in your day
04:29Well, you lot wouldn't be here otherwise
04:31Mind you, I think your mother ought to have talked to you about these things by now
04:36Oh, no, I understand the facts of life, Ethel
04:38It's knowing how to handle them
04:40I see
04:41Well, I'm not a fool, and don't get caught out at my age
04:44Oh, no
04:45Can't tell Dr Legg that, though
04:46He still treats me like a kid
04:48Oh, I know it
04:49He's a very good doctor
04:50He knows what he's talking about
04:51You reckon?
04:52Oh, yes
04:54He could be up in Harlem Street by now if he wanted
04:57Well, he didn't do much for me
04:58I wish I'd gone to see him now
05:01Well, it's the age, I suppose
05:03What do you mean?
05:05Well, I mean, there's all these modern ideas
05:07I have difficulty keeping up with them
05:09I suppose it's the same with him
05:11I mean, maybe you should go to someone younger
05:13Hmm, maybe I should
05:15Mary might help
05:16After all, she's got a kitty
05:18She's not much older than you
05:20Here's our baby's bus, Phil
05:21And it's for the bus, right?
05:23Don't go spending it on chips
05:24Of course not
05:25Would be the first time, would it?
05:27Thanks for the chat, Ethel
05:32Hey, Lofty
05:33Is this a private boat now?
05:34Or can anyone use it?
05:36It's all right, Pete
05:37I'll get it shifted
05:43Yeah, we'll make it, Snappy
05:44I've got a lot on this morning
05:51There you go, mate
05:52Cheers
05:53Oh, Pete
05:55What now?
05:56Have you got a half-inch socket?
05:57I can't seem to find mine
05:58Lofty, I'm in alley, mate
05:59Well, I can't really get on without it
06:08Here, there's one in there somewhere
06:19There's a little devil I was looking for
06:22Oi
06:23Are you forgetting something?
06:25Oh, yes, sorry
06:33All right, all right
06:34Ready, Mum?
06:35Already unpacked?
06:36I'm not going
06:37Eh?
06:37She wants to see Paul in him first
06:39I'm needed here
06:40I don't think I managed
06:41I've already told her that
06:43She's my daughter
06:45I'm the one that should be seen to her
06:47You're not too well yourself, Mum
06:48That's why we're doing all this
06:49I've made up my mind
06:50This is my house
06:52No-one's going to clear me out of it
06:53Till I'm good and ready
06:54Want a cup of tea, Pete?
06:56Why not?
06:57Yeah, what's all that then?
06:58It's my schedule
06:59Trying to sort out
07:00Up and do a thing
07:01During the day
07:03I do have a business to run, you know
07:05In between being the taxi service
07:06I expect I can carry me cases over the estate
07:09It's only a couple of miles or so
07:10What's that to an old lady with shingles?
07:12Oh, I didn't mean that, Mum
07:13You just need sorting out, that's all
07:16Arthur, what's the oldest Paulian can come out of the hospital?
07:19Well, any time now, she thinks
07:20She's got to see the doctor to give her the nod
07:21But that's just a formality
07:22Right then
07:23I'll have a cup of tea first
07:24Then I'll pop over the road
07:25Ask Ian to hold the fort a little bit longer
07:28What's Ian doing at the store?
07:30I thought he was supposed to be off sick
07:33Cass, look, you know
07:34I feel a long direct, remember?
07:35Oh, some people would have closed up for the day
07:38Family's being more important than money
07:40Look, that new wine bar in the precinct
07:42Has given me a weekly salad order
07:44The first time I let them down
07:45They'll be round terpy mode
07:47And I lose a good little earner
07:49And I'm not letting that happen
07:50Oh, that place won't last more than two minutes
07:53Looks like a French broth
07:54Or people round here don't want a wine bar
07:57Give me a good old-fashioned pub any day
08:00Dear money, it's good as anyone else's
08:02Right then
08:03I'll pick Pauline up by ten
08:04That gives Mum a chance to see her in
08:06Get over to the estate
08:07All sorted out by lunchtime
08:08One
08:09Flowers
08:10One
08:10Oh, we've got to have some flowers here
08:12To welcome Pauline back
08:14Don't worry, I'll get the flowers
08:15You see what I mean?
08:16I've got to think of everything
08:17You two couldn't organise a booze up in a brewery
08:21Yeah, well, if you ask me
08:22You don't know when you're well off
08:23Really?
08:24Yeah
08:24If I was your age again, I'd stay clear of fellas
08:27Rubbish
08:28No, it's true
08:30I've never met one that was worth the bother
08:32Well, that's only because you got caught out
08:34It's not going to happen to me
08:35Yeah, that's what I thought, I suppose
08:37But the pill's safe
08:38You can't get pregnant when you're on it
08:41As if you remember to take it
08:42A lot of people don't
08:44In any case, why should you go messing up your body
08:46Just so some bloke can have this bit of fun when it suits in?
08:49It's not just it, is it?
08:50Maybe I might enjoy it
08:53Yeah, well, that's your look-out
08:54Look where it got me
08:56Nowadays, I'd rather have a good meal
08:58At least after that, all you get is indigestion
09:00It's not as bad as all that
09:02I mean, you love Annie
09:05Yeah, of course I do
09:06Well then
09:07Loving her don't provide for her
09:09She still needs feeding and dressing and somewhere to live
09:11But you've got all that
09:12Well, it's a right palace, isn't it?
09:15They're shoving me into a bed and breakfast for a few days
09:17So they can bodge up the dump
09:18Well, I suppose if we get hungry, we could stew up one of the mice
09:22Yeah, you're right, Sharon
09:24Me life's a real picnic
09:26Oh, look
09:27I'd better be going to school now
09:30Oh, well, thanks for the tea
09:32It's all right
09:33Thanks for talking it over
09:34Well, why don't you take a bit of notice
09:36Look, it doesn't have to be like that
09:38What?
09:39Well, sordid
09:40All you know about is what can go wrong
09:41But there must be another side to it
09:43Yeah
09:45Look, it's not just for the bloke's convenience
09:47If I go on the pill, it means I can say yes or no when it suits me
09:50You reckon?
09:51Well, yeah, it's freedom
09:52Freedom to do what I want with me own body
09:54I reckon everyone's entitled to that
09:56Yeah, well, it's your life
09:57It's up to you, Annie
09:58It's right
10:00Yeah
10:05Are you sure you know what you're doing, Lofty?
10:09How's it going, son?
10:10Oh, it's pretty frantic
10:10I'm glad you're here
10:11I'm not stopping, son
10:13Here, is that bloke from the wine bar turning up yet?
10:15Yeah, he said something about a bigger discount
10:17I think he's entitled to it as a regular order
10:19I'm probably going to need some more squeezing in
10:20Yeah, right, coming on
10:21Thank you
10:22Oh, yeah, I wouldn't leave it too late if I was due
10:24Right
10:25He said he might take his trade all the way off
10:26Oh, yeah
10:28If I give him much more of a discount, I'll be paying him
10:30Yeah, there you go, Ant
10:33Oh, yeah
10:33Market inspector wants to see you as well
10:35Oh, what about her?
10:36What?
10:37Well, if it rains, it pours
10:38I said you'd be back here in about an hour
10:40More like a lunchtime on my face, son
10:42Your old grin's packed in up again
10:44Look, Dad, I don't want to be stuck over here at lunchtime
10:46If you had master turns up, I'm going to go right, Wally
10:49Only asking you to do a favour once in your life, son
10:51If it gets too busy, you can ask also he to give you an hand
10:54Dad, my side really aches
10:56Look, I ain't putting it on
10:59I reckon when it gets better, I might take up this idea about boxing
11:02Oh, now you're talking, now what, I'll fuck
11:06I wouldn't be mad at the soap bays, though
11:08There's foam everywhere in there
11:11It's just like you dressed up as Father Christmas
11:13Yeah, here, just sweet, when you go grey
11:14I'll have to put up you looking like that for the rest of my life
11:16You keep pulling strokes like this
11:18You won't live long enough to see it
11:20Oh, can't you take a joke anymore?
11:21Yeah, you wait till I get me home with my clothes
11:24You, well, I bet you don't finish off a salvage job
11:27Look, I'm going to shoot off, son
11:28I'll be back as soon as I can, honest
11:30You got a minute, Pete?
11:31Well, frankly, no
11:33Oh, frankly, okay, mate
11:35Oh, what's it about?
11:36Well, it's a bit of a cheek, it's personal
11:38I just want to ask a better advice
11:40So, what's the problem?
11:42Well, it's probably nothing
11:42I mean, these things happen when you live with someone
11:44There can be roses all the time
11:46So, you've had an up and a down with the old lady
11:48Yeah, exactly
11:49It's just that we don't seem to be so together as we used to be
11:52I mean, you and Carp have been married for years
11:54And you still look pretty happy
11:54I just think you might give him a few tips
11:56Buy him a present, eh?
11:58Look, when they're down in the mouth, you buy him a present
12:00Nothing fancy
12:01It's the thought that counts
12:03It can't be as simple as that, surely
12:04Now, that's exactly where you're wrong
12:07People are always going on how complicated women are
12:10It's a load of old toffee
12:11They just want to be noticed like the rest of us
12:13So, you buy him a present
12:14And that perks him up
12:17You take my advice, old son
12:19And you'll be home and fly
12:21Got to shoot now
12:22Cheers, Pete
12:26Now, have you got a plaster?
12:28Oh, what have you done now?
12:30Well, there's a nut I couldn't get loose
12:31My hand slipped
12:32Well, you haven't done any more damage to the car, have you?
12:34I'm not damaging the car
12:35I'm fixing the car
12:37I was up with a crack of dawn to fix the car
12:39For your convenience
12:40Now, I'd just like a plaster before I bleed to death
12:42It's not too much trouble
12:45Tar
12:45Here
12:47You ought to wash that before you put a plaster on it
12:49Otherwise, you'll get gangrene and it'll drop off
12:52Yeah, well, medically, you may be right, Ethel
12:54But I want to get this car fixed if it kills me
12:56Even if I'm not appreciated
12:59Lovely fella Lofty
13:01He'll do anything for anyone
13:02We are paying him
13:04Ah, yes, but it's a big job, isn't it?
13:06It's a long while since he's had a lot to do with engines
13:10He doesn't know what he's doing, though, doesn't he?
13:12He'll stick at it till the job's finished
13:14Even if it takes him till next Christmas
13:17I've just been talking to him outside
13:19He was in a proper dizzy, poor love
13:21But he's determined to get it finished
13:23Well, I hope he doesn't make it worse
13:25Anyway
13:26When people see what he's done to your car
13:29They'll probably offer him a lot of jobs
13:32Well, I hope so, Ethel
13:33Well, it'll be a weight off your Ali's mind, won't he?
13:37When it's all sorted out
13:38I expect you're feeling the pinch without his cab money
13:41See, right we are
13:43Funny
13:44Bumped into him earlier on
13:46Ali?
13:47Hmm
13:48He's meant to be over the bakery
13:49Sorting out a delivery that never got here
13:51Oh, well, that's funny
13:53Cos he was coming out of the betting shop when I saw him
13:58Hello, darling
14:00We were just starting to worry that you'd had an accident
14:03No, no, no
14:04The doctor had an emergency op this morning
14:06Oh, them flowers
14:08They're lovely, Arthur
14:09They was my idea
14:10Oh, thanks, Mum
14:12Hello
14:12Come on
14:13Would you like a nice cup of tea?
14:15Oh, yes, please
14:16It's all right
14:17I'll do it
14:18I know how she likes it
14:20He never warms the pot
14:22Good to be, Omae
14:24Oh, it's wonderful
14:25Here, don't believe her, Arthur
14:27She had all the nurses fussing around her
14:29I bet she thought she was in the Hilton
14:30Oh, food wasn't like an hotel, though
14:33Won't fit for a pig, most of it
14:34I've got a nice pie eaten up in the oven
14:36Pie and mash, eh?
14:37Just what the doctor ordered
14:38Oh, I told him you wouldn't feel like a big meal
14:40Not when you first got back
14:42Good, you're joking
14:43I could eat an horse right now
14:44Oh, well, that's probably what's in it
14:47If you got it down the market
14:48Here, let's make a start on the packing, Mum
14:49Get me ready to go straight after dinner
14:51Not now, Pete
14:52I want to hear all Pauline's news first
14:54Well, you can do that over dinner, can't you?
14:56I can't leave you in on that stall all day
14:59Now, I want you to tell me
15:01Exactly what the doctor told you
15:03I want to make sure you're being looked up to properly
15:05Well, he said I was doing quite well
15:07You know, considering
15:08But I've got to take it easier, a bit
15:09You heard that, Arthur?
15:11I've been trying to tell her that for weeks
15:12Yeah, I'll tell you what, Mum
15:13You sit and chat with Pauline
15:14And I'll go and do the packing for you, eh?
15:16Just tell me what you want to take
15:17Stop rushing me, Pete
15:19I'll do it when I'm ready
15:21Not before
15:22Here, you can help Arthur with the meal
15:24Yeah, you can dig the spuds if you like, Pete
15:26They ought to be done by now, tart
15:30You and Sharon had a nice chat this morning, then, Ethel?
15:33Oh, yes
15:34You two seem to be getting on pretty well lately
15:36Oh, turning out to have a mind of her own, that young lady
15:41What were you talking about?
15:42Well, you know what it's like at that age
15:45All trying to grow up too quick
15:48How do you mean?
15:49Well, I mean, it's nothing but boys, boys, boys
15:51There's no time to think about anything else
15:54I think it's a shame
15:56Yeah
15:58I had a crush on a boy called Brian when I was at school
16:01He was the delivery boy for the bakers
16:04And I admired the way he rode his bike, Ethel
16:07Of course, I never told him
16:09I mean, you wouldn't in those days, would you?
16:12But I've thought about him all the while
16:14Different nowadays, isn't it?
16:16Well, that's your perceptive society, isn't it?
16:19Permissive, Ethel
16:20That's what I say
16:22It's the parents I'm sorry for, you see
16:25I mean, especially with girls
16:26It's nothing but worry
16:29You'll need to keep an eye on your Sharon
16:32Oh, well
16:37This is a bit of a turn-up
16:38You look so down in the dumps lately
16:40I thought I'd spend my lunch out cheering you up
16:41I'll even buy you a drink
16:43Of course, you'll have to get him in
16:44Because Angie won't serve me
16:45Ah, it's my run
16:46Anyway, I'm chuffed to see you
16:50A pint of Churchill and a Coke, please
16:52Coming up
16:53Oh, Ethel
16:54Do us a favour, can you?
16:56What?
16:56Take Rowley for a walk
16:57He'll be sitting there with his legs crossed
16:59You're all right
17:00Put all my stuff behind the bar, will you?
17:03Oh
17:04Oh
17:04Come on, Rowley
17:05Oh, Wigley
17:07I've just been talking to Pete
17:08He's seen a thing at buying her a present
17:10What's all of her thing
17:11Oh, is it her birthday?
17:13Nah, just a piece of her thing, you know
17:14I see
17:15What have you done wrong?
17:16Nothing, not that I know of
17:17I don't understand
17:19No, neither do I
17:20But I know there's something
17:22Perhaps you should, uh
17:24You should try and talk it over with her then
17:25I've tried
17:26But she just says she's busy
17:27Well, people get irritable when they're busy
17:29I know I do
17:31Neymar does
17:31Oh, I don't know
17:32I've been worried about it for a while
17:34That's really why I was signing off to you and Neymar
17:36It's not really the area that's worrying me
17:38It's what it's doing to me and Debs
17:39How do you mean?
17:40Maybe it's the house
17:41Or the fact that we're together all the time
17:44We just seem to be getting on each other's nerves
17:46We don't seem to be a couple anymore
17:48It's all so one-sided
17:50Maybe you should do what, uh
17:51Pete and me suggested
17:53Huh?
17:53You'll buy her a present
17:54And then when she asks you what it's for
17:56Get her to talk over the problem with you
17:58You're not still moping about this woman, are you?
18:01I suppose so
18:03It still leaves a nasty taste
18:06Take the warning, boy
18:08We blokes all stick together
18:09You know where you are that way
18:11You can't trust women
18:13You're getting a bit cynical in your old age, aren't you, Dad?
18:15That's a voice of experience, Calvin
18:17Don't you go tying yourself down too soon
18:19Oh, I've got enough in me plate with these exams
18:21Mm-hmm
18:23You've still seen a fair bit of Michelle, though
18:25Oh, yeah, but...
18:28It doesn't work, you know
18:29What?
18:30Mixed relationships
18:32Is that the voice of experience, too?
18:34Well, maybe
18:34Well, maybe you've just been unlucky
18:38That's an understatement
18:40I'm on to my second divorce
18:42I'm either unlucky or damn careless
18:50Your mum's getting really heavy about it all now
18:52No, no
18:53That's between you and her, Dad
18:54I really don't want to know
18:55I bet you hear plenty of her side
18:59Look, I tell her the same as I tell you
19:00It's none of my business
19:02I don't want to be stuck in the middle, Dad
19:04And I don't want to take sides
19:06All right, I know she can be difficult
19:08But so can you
19:09So sort it out between yourselves, eh?
19:11Okay, okay
19:12I don't suppose there's any more mash
19:14You don't mind about that, Pete
19:16It's time I got on with my packing
19:17You said you were going to help me
19:18What, you ready?
19:19Let's go
19:20That was a lovely meal, Arthur
19:22Yeah, well, from now on
19:23Everything's going to be organised
19:24To keep your strength up, love
19:25I told you the doctor said I was all right
19:27Maybe, but we want to keep you there, don't we?
19:29That's why I reckon you ought to give up the long grant
19:31What's all this?
19:32I've worked it all out
19:33By the time you take the allowances and everything in
19:35We'll only be four quid a week worse off
19:37Oh, well, it doesn't seem worthy
19:38While working these days, do it?
19:40I don't think Pauline should go back
19:42But four pounds is four pounds
19:44Going to make a lot of difference
19:45With your sort of budget
19:46Mum, let's get on with the packing, eh?
19:47Oh, don't be stupid, Pete
19:49We're talking about Pauline's elf
19:51This is more important
19:52We've got to get it sorted
19:54Well, I mean, it is a bit of a strain at times
19:56But Mum's right
19:57We're feeling the pinch as it is
19:58And with four quid out the window
20:00We'll make things even tighter
20:02Well, my vote says you ought to give it up
20:04And we'll make the best of things the way they are
20:07What are you doing here?
20:08I thought you would be home by now
20:09Yeah, so did I
20:10Hasn't your mum finished at the launderette?
20:12Yeah
20:12She's on the stall now
20:13But we've got another problem
20:14Ah
20:15The market inspector's been round
20:17He forgot to renew our licence
20:18We shouldn't have even been training today
20:21He says he'll turn a blind eye
20:22If you go down the town
20:23I'll get it sorted out
20:24Oh, blimey
20:27I thought you had more sense
20:28You never see a poor bookie
20:29Say that again
20:31Well, what do you want to go
20:32Lining their pockets for, then?
20:34And where did you get the money, anyway?
20:36Don't tell me it was at 75
20:37Because I know different
20:39Your bets are always 10 pounds on the nose
20:41Or a fiver each way
20:43And it's like a disease, will you?
20:44You can't stay away from them
20:45What are we going to pay Lofty with?
20:47Shirt buttons?
20:48How about this?
20:51You won?
20:52185 quid
20:53Three cross-doubles
20:54Well, why didn't you say?
20:56You never let me get a word in, did you?
20:58How's it going, Einstein?
20:59All right
21:00Might take a bit longer than I thought
21:02The suspension's totally witter
21:04Terrific
21:04Are you sure you can handle a job like that?
21:06Yeah, yeah, of course I can
21:08But I'll need a few spares, mind
21:10Well, and the readies to pay for them
21:13This will keep you going for a while
21:15I don't want to see mercenary or nothing
21:17But weren't you talking about
21:19Bunging me something for doing it and all?
21:21On account, eh?
21:22I suppose you're doing business with me, I'll
21:24I'll let you know how it's going, eh?
21:26See ya
21:27Cheers, love
21:28In one hand, out the other
21:32I'll do that, love
21:33Sit down, I can manage
21:34Yeah, well, don't put that red woolly in there, it runs
21:36I know, Mum, I'm making a separate bag for the reds
21:38I'm going to take these into Auntie Cat in the morning
21:40We're going to make you take things easy
21:42Whether you like it or not
21:43Come on
21:44How are you feeling now?
21:45You still look a bit peaky
21:46Yeah, I know
21:46I've been thinking about it quite a lot lately
21:48Reckon I might take up boxing
21:49Oh, you want to talk to your dad about that?
21:50He still knows a few people down at the gym
21:52Well, you can have a long wait
21:54If you're expecting him to get it together
21:56I've been sat here half the afternoon with this case
21:58He's all mouth these days
22:00He was ready at 8.30
22:03Oh, you've finally turned up, have you?
22:05But don't you start
22:06I've just had a lecture down that terminal
22:08Well, you should turn up at the proper time then, shouldn't you?
22:10You're ready then?
22:11I've been packed for hours
22:13Come on, Mum
22:14Here we go
22:15Right then, Mum, have a nice time
22:16Oh, thanks, love
22:17Look, are you sure you can manage without me?
22:19I mean, I don't uncancell it even now
22:21We'll be able to manage, honestly
22:23Yeah, you just go and enjoy yourself
22:25Bye, Gran
22:26Oh, it must bring a lump to me throat, you know
22:29Eh?
22:30We're all leaving the old place behind
22:32I've lived here all my life
22:33It's only for a few days, isn't it?
22:35Yeah, I suppose so
22:36But at my age, you never know what could happen
22:39Oh, don't be so morbid, Mum
22:41Are you coming, then?
22:42Yes
22:42Hey, if you've finally finished business with me
22:44Hey, Orion, bye-bye, Mum
22:45Oh, now you go
22:46Bye-bye, fancy
22:47Bye-bye, bye-bye
22:48See you, bye-bye
22:49What brought this on?
22:50Aren't I allowed to buy you presents, then?
22:52Of course you are
22:53I just wondered what it's for
22:54Chew you up a bit
22:55I'm not miserable
22:56You know what I mean
22:57No, I don't
22:58Well, I just don't seem to really get through to these days
23:00I thought these might help
23:02Oh, I see
23:02It's the old Pat the Little Woman on the Head routine
23:05Eh?
23:05When they get difficult, you give them a present to shut them up
23:08It's not like that at all
23:10You're dead right it's not
23:11It might have worked with your old mum in Glasgow
23:13But I want a bit more out of life
23:15I know
23:16I'm not working at these exams to spite you
23:18It's because I want a career for myself
23:20I'm a person in my own right, got it?
23:22I'm not arguing with that
23:23I just think it ought to leave a bit of time for us as well
23:27Feeling neglected again?
23:28Yeah, I am
23:29I'm a person in my own right, too
23:31I'm not just your flatmate
23:32Have a coffee cream and shut up
23:34This is serious, Dad
23:35It's you, maybe
23:36I just don't see there's any problem
23:37Well, I do
23:38And I think we should have proper talk about it
23:41Okay, okay
23:43What are you doing now?
23:44I thought you agreed we're going to discuss all this
23:46Yeah, fine, but not now
23:47I've started my exams tomorrow
23:48I haven't got time
23:49Oh, I see
23:50I've got to fix up an appointment now, have I?
23:53God, you're impossible these days
23:54I wonder how she's getting on over there
23:58Probably enjoying every minute of it
23:59Yeah, Pete always was golden boy
24:01I could never do nothing right
24:02It's always the way, isn't it?
24:03The one who looks after them gets all the stick
24:05Anyway, it's there waiting for a while now
24:07We can enjoy a bit of peace and quiet
24:09Hello
24:10I spoke too soon
24:11That's probably her coming back
24:12Don't be silly
24:13Mum wouldn't knock at the door
24:14Go and let him in whoever it is
24:16Come in whoever you are
24:16It's not locked
24:18Hello, love
24:19Hello
24:20I'm going to sit down
24:22I thought I'd come and welcome you back
24:23No, I can't stop
24:24I brought you this
24:26Sorry, it's got a new line in instant meals
24:28I thought, well, you shouldn't be spending too much time in the kitchen
24:30You ought to be taking things easy
24:32Oh, curry, is it?
24:33I like a bit of the old winderloo
24:35It's shepherd's pie
24:36Oh
24:36I hope that's all right
24:38Oh, it's lovely
24:39Thanks ever so much, dear Tom
24:40Got to get back
24:41Bye
24:42See ya
24:43Oh, can I move my stuff into Gran's room?
24:45You heard what Gran said this morning
24:47It's out of bounds
24:48I'm asking Mum
24:48Well, don't
24:49You've already been told
24:50And your mum don't need you, Pastor
24:52She's just got out of hospital
24:53She needs some consideration
24:54Sorry, Mum
24:55As to Gran's room
24:56She's only gone for a few days
24:58If it turns out to be longer
24:59We'll have another think about it
25:00You reckon she might stay longer, then?
25:02Well, you never know
25:03She might get to like it, then
25:06Are you sure he knows what he's doing?
25:08Well, maybe it'll take him a bit of time
25:10But he'll get there in the end
25:11Well, at least that's one problem
25:13Off our mind, eh?
25:13Yeah, thanks to me
25:16Don't let it go to your head
25:18You must have lost enough money
25:19Down that betting shop
25:20Over the last couple of years
25:21To pay for three cars
25:23You're always knocking me
25:24I just got to have a problem, didn't I?
25:27All right, all right
25:28Don't get flesh
25:30Well, the first thing we've got to do
25:31Is put out some money for that cooker
25:33Yeah, when we get it
25:35We've got it now
25:36You've got 150 quid of our winnings
25:38My winnings?
25:39And I've got plans for them
25:41Look, Ali
25:42If we don't pay for that cooker
25:43They're going to take it back
25:45Look, I don't want to be paying out
25:47A bit here and a bit there
25:48Just to keep people off our backs
25:49For two minutes
25:50I want to clear the whole lot up
25:52Terrific
25:53But we can't
25:54I can
25:57Ali, just give me the money
25:59Look, they're my winnings
26:00I say what's to be done with them
26:02You can't wait to lose them again
26:04Can you?
26:05You don't know what you're talking about
26:07Don't I?
26:07I have to live with it, remember
26:09Gambling's a bloody disease, you know
26:11Oh, don't talk wet
26:12I'm serious
26:14If I'd listened to you last time
26:15We wouldn't have any money to argue about with now, would we?
26:19I know when I'm on a winning streak
26:20You get a feeling
26:22So how come you always lose?
26:24Because you need a decent stake
26:25Before you can go for a really big win
26:28And I'm just on the way to getting it
26:31You're going to go down that betty shop
26:32And throw it all away tomorrow, aren't you?
26:35No, I'm not
26:35Well, what are you going to do with it then?
26:38That is my business
26:42Bloody lifts
26:42You might have known that I've been up the spout
26:44That's the sort of day I've been
26:45Where is she now?
26:47On the 11th floor when I last looked
26:49Ian's doing a great job
26:50Trying to keep her cheerful
26:52Do you want to take her and have a cup of tea down?
26:54No, I reckon she's close to the winning post by now
26:56We'll have one waiting up here for her
26:58Celebration
27:00I feel really sorry for her for once
27:02Poor old dear
27:03I mean, it's not on at her age, is it?
27:05She's enjoying some of it
27:06Met old Ma Murphy on the 8th floor
27:08You know, used to work round Turbine Road
27:10They had a bit of a check
27:11Probably just getting her breath back
27:13Nope
27:14Moaning away that her old man never paid Dad a fiver back
27:17He borrowed in the old days
27:18She'll have feuds going on all over the estate before she's finished
27:21It's all right, she's coming
27:23I didn't tell you
27:26There, come in, Mum
27:27Here, for God's sake, sit down
27:29Before you fall down
27:31Oh, nice cup of tea, eh, Mum?
27:32That'd bring the colour back to your cheeks
27:34Yeah
27:34Didn't you do well getting up all them stairs, eh?
27:37If you keep going on at this rate
27:39I'll be able to enter you
27:40The London Marathon next year
27:41Well, put the cases in Ian's room
27:43He's got to sleep on the sofa
27:44Anything you want, Mum
27:45You just ask and we'll get it for you
27:47Well, we've got a black and white telly for your room
27:49Then you can always watch it in bed, if you like
27:51Oh, me, for us
27:53Yes

27:56You tell that caretaker I want to see him in the morning
27:59Eh?
28:00It's not right
28:01We're not putting up with it
28:03Don't work like that, Mum, round here
28:06The council do things in their own sweet time
