00:24Who's there?
00:25Oh, um, it's the post.
00:29It looks like there's one from Bob and Hilda.
00:31Oh.
00:32And Lee.
00:32About time we heard from that lot.
00:35I hope our Terry's not up to his tricks again.
00:38Yeah.
00:39Michelle's gone straight over to the stall.
00:41She left the house with a face like thunder.
00:43I don't know what's up with her these days.
00:44You'd think she'd want to wish her dad luck on his first day at work, wouldn't you?
00:48Still, it's good of her to give her hand, I suppose.
00:51Now, you'll be able to manage without Arthur.
00:53I was running stalls when you were on your pot.
00:56Yes, I know.
01:00Well, Gil, what do you think?
01:02Oh, that's going to look smart, Arthur.
01:04Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:04Oh, just a minute.
01:05Oh, no, no, it's all right.
01:07Hey, he's still asleep, you know.
01:08I know, he's a good baby.
01:09Yeah.
01:10Here, um, it's come.
01:12Look, it's here.
01:13Letter from the council.
01:15They've got to send someone round from the housing to see for themselves.
01:18The trouble had to get herself out of the house before she saw him.
01:21Yeah, I'll telephone from work.
01:23We'd better make sure they come on her bingo day.
01:25Yeah, yeah.
01:26I'd love to hear you say that.
01:27What?
01:28I'll telephone from work.
01:31Bye-bye, darling.
01:32All right, love.
01:33Oh, look.
01:33Hello, Ian.
01:34Sorry, darling.
01:35Bye-bye.
01:36You ready to go home?
01:37Yeah.
01:37Uh, do you want egg?
01:39No, no, thanks, sir.
01:40I guess I'm going to Kelvins, right?
01:41I'd say we're really getting somewhere now.
01:43Good.
01:43Well, you get a move on, then.
01:46That's what I like to see.
01:47Everyone in this house setting off for their day's work.
01:50Kelvins, I'm glad you're busy, okay?
01:52But what did I tell you about being a good craftsman?
01:54Hmm?
01:55Whether you're building a cupboard or making a jersey, you create order, right?
01:59You look after your tools, right?
02:02You do one piece at a time and you clear up after you, right?
02:08And then don't let you have the washing up.
02:09Yeah, Dad, hang on a minute.
02:10I'm just going to get this tricky bit done.
02:12Yeah.
02:12Uh, aren't you going to ask me what the bank letter said?
02:16That's all I didn't notice.
02:17Well, I told you, they don't give bank loans to black men.
02:21Wrong.
02:22I got it.
02:24So things might start getting better for a change.
02:26Oh, that's great.
02:27Now then, your mother's coming over and, uh, we've got to talk about your future, whether
02:32you like it or not.
02:33Yeah, but Dad Ian's on his way and I've got to get this one right and we have to finish
02:35it today because he's going back to school.
02:37Look, look, okay, I'll make a bargain with you.
02:38You and Ian, get this place tidy then before she comes and I'll take her off somewhere else
02:42where we can talk, okay?
02:44Look, you know what she's like.
02:45If she sees this place like this, she's going to, you know, it would only start a row.
02:49Look, look, I know what I'm talking about.
02:51Look, believe me.
02:54Look, just a minute.
02:57Look, before you get carried away, Kelvin here is on the washing up and pushing the dishes
03:01away, you and I are on hoovering and dusting duties.
03:03When that is done and only then, you're on your own, okay?
03:07All right, come on, come on.
03:20Now look what you've done.
03:22Do you have to do that at a table, love?
03:24I mean, the smell is disgusting.
03:26There's one thing I can't stand.
03:28It's chipped nail varnish.
03:29It's really tacky.
03:30Well, that has just put me off my toast.
03:32Thank you very much.
03:36I mean, what's with all this warping and glad rags for anyway?
03:39I mean, are you going somewhere special?
03:41That's right.
03:42I thought you were meant to get some studying done on your day off.
03:45I was.
03:46Changed my mind.
03:47Hmm.
03:48When we get some funds then, maybe we'll get done to getting some proper coffee.
03:52I'll be fair instant, myself.
03:54What time's your lunch break today?
03:55Why?
03:56I want you to meet me in the pub.
03:57There's something I want to discuss with you.
03:59Sorry, love, I can't meet you at lunchtime.
04:00I've got a meeting, wouldn't make it back in time.
04:02Okay, and talk about it now then.
04:04Dave's angry belated, eh?
04:05I'll tell you where I'm going on my deal.
04:07Oh, yeah?
04:08To the bank.
04:09Why?
04:10I have an interview with my boss to see if he'll let us have a loan.
04:13Don't expect he'll refuse, but you never know.
04:15What do you want to get us into all that for then, eh?
04:17What do you think for?
04:19We've got to replace the things we've lost somehow.
04:21Well, don't you think that's something we should do together?
04:24That's what I'm telling you.
04:25If we met in the pub, we could fill in the forms for me to take in tomorrow.
04:28Well, can't we do that this evening?
04:30I mean, it's a big decision.
04:30Supposing we can't keep up the payments?
04:32I thought you were on overtime this evening.
04:34I am!
04:36What?
04:37I forgot.
04:38You forgot?
04:40Okay.
04:41I suppose I better tell you why I'm doing so much overtime lately.
04:45I'm not sure I want to know.
04:47It isn't what you think, love.
04:48No, no.
04:48What's the name?
04:49Oh, for God's sake, Debs.
04:51It's this little boy I'm nursing.
04:53So?
04:54He's six years old.
04:55His mother's in the same hospital having a baby.
04:58And his dad's got all his time taken up, minding the other kids.
05:01He doesn't have anyone else but me.
05:03He'll hardly let any of the other nurses near him.
05:05I don't understand.
05:06That's not so unusual.
05:08I'm sorry, but it's not, is it?
05:09Surely the social work...
05:10He's got very painful eczema, Debs, all over his body.
05:13He's got to have constant baths and treatment.
05:16In spite of all that, he's the most cheerful little lad I've ever met.
05:19Andy, we're professional people.
05:21We don't bring our work problems home.
05:23That's the first rule.
05:24How long do you think our relationship would last?
05:26Liz, listen, this is different, love.
05:28Please.
05:28You always said yourself that you were taught that a good nurse never gets emotionally involved.
05:33First of your stuff, that's theory.
05:34I'm a person, love, not a machine.
05:36Look, Stuart is improving because he trusts and he needs me.
05:40I mean, he's amazingly bright with a great sense of humour.
05:42Look, you love him.
05:43I love him.
05:43What's it got to do with me?
05:45What do you think I'm trying to get through to you, love?
05:47I want to bring him home.
05:48What?
05:49You actually want to bring our patient home.
05:52Oh, don't, Debs.
05:52With a skin disease.
05:53You've gone mad.
05:54It's not allowed.
05:56It's against all the regulations.
05:57No, it's not.
05:57It happens all the time.
05:58I mean, how do you think we cope with all the cuts and the staff shortages because everyone
06:02knows when to turn a blind eye?
06:03Look, love, please.
06:05You're a good girl.
06:06It'll work out beautifully.
06:07You'll see.
06:07Look, when you meet him, you'll understand, honestly.
06:09Please do it for me, eh?
06:15I wish you and I could get away.
06:17It makes all the difference, mate.
06:19And Pete was a new man.
06:20You know what I mean?
06:21Oh, yeah.
06:22No, I can't see any chance of us getting away.
06:24Well, not to the Littlen start school.
06:26Oh, go on.
06:27We'd all help out.
06:28I mean, what with half a work in there, I mean, you might be able to manage a week away
06:31somewhere.
06:32Maybe next year.
06:33And what they're paying him, not much more than what he's got on the dole.
06:38Oh!
06:39Oh, Cap, it's lovely.
06:41It's bigger than he is.
06:43Oh, you should, love.
06:44Do you like it?
06:45Yeah.
06:46You've got some right funny looks on the plane, I tell you.
06:48It's a pity he's asleep, though, isn't it?
06:50Oh, you're half a good baby.
06:51You are lucky.
06:52Yeah, I've got that to be thankful for.
06:54Remember when Mark was nine weeks old, he managed to roll off the bed.
06:58I often wonder if that's what made him away.
07:00Oh, come on now, Paulie.
07:01You know what we said.
07:02You're not to blame yourself, OK?
07:03Yeah.
07:04Here, Cap, I've got something I wanted to ask you.
07:06Oh, what's that?
07:08Well, we'd like you and Peter to be godparents.
07:10I mean, you're the first people we thought of.
07:12Because he's going to need some goodness growing up round here.
07:15And, well, I don't want to make the same mistakes with this one.
07:18Oh, thanks.
07:19Well, here we go, Michelle.
07:22She's a good kid, Michelle.
07:24Lou's a hard woman, but I'll give her one thing.
07:26What's that?
07:27She's making sure she don't turn out like her brother.
07:30Which reminds me, you've been in the report of the breaking officer yet?
07:34What do you think?
07:36Here, give us one, will you?
07:38You want to knock that on the head?
07:40You know how one thing leads to another.
07:43Give it a rest, Mark.
07:44You've been on at me since I got up this morning.
07:46Yes, but I should have done it years ago.
07:48I feel it was been too soft.
07:49That's me trouble.
07:50You wait for your father.
07:52He has what you're being up to.
07:53There'll be ruptures.
07:54As soon as he's probably in out of Mongolia or something,
07:56I don't think that's much of a problem right now.
07:58Anyway, you're right when they talk about smoking.
08:01They've probably got old tobacco fields growing with your name on.
08:03Don't be so cheeky.
08:04You know very well.
08:05In my case, it's medicinal.
08:07You what?
08:08I'm in neurasthenia.
08:09Dr. Legg says she's never seen nerves like it.
08:12Where are you going this afternoon?
08:14What do you want to know for?
08:15You're due at the job centre, right?
08:17Then I want you to come straight back here when I come off shift
08:19and walk me down to the chiropodist to get my palms cut.
08:21You must be joking.
08:22Unless you want that quick on your back, I'm accounting for your movements.
08:27Here, make yourself useful.
08:29Put in your hands on these.
08:31All right, hold on a minute.
08:33Look.
08:34Oh, get the tea.
08:44Hello, love.
08:44How's it going?
08:46All right.
08:47Aren't you going to ask me how my morning went?
08:49Was it okay?
08:51I haven't been cleaning your school, you know.
08:53We do lots of other things besides.
08:55Is that what's bothering you?
08:56I might show you up in front of your mates when terms don't happen.
09:00Of course it's not, Dad.
09:01What do you type me for?
09:02Some sort of snob or something.
09:05I'm glad it went all right for you, Dad.
09:06Good girl.
09:07I'll see you tonight.
09:07Yeah, bye-bye.
09:20What's your lofty?
09:21How's it going, mate?
09:22Okay.
09:24Have a jar of you later.
09:25Catch up of old times, eh?
09:26Well, I've been out for a can, really.
09:28I mean, I'm sorry.
09:29Come on.
09:29Don't you be like the rest of them.
09:31I'm clean, aren't I?
09:32Paid my dues, right?
09:33Hello, lofty.
09:34You thought a bloke like you'd bear a grudge?
09:36I'll do them for you.
09:37Yeah, if you've got that on.
09:39Yeah, would you, Dad?
09:40It's the tea towels from...
09:41It's some tea towels.
09:42Yeah, right.
09:44Here.
09:45You don't know what I've got to pull up with.
09:47The old woman treating me like a monkey with a chain on its neck.
09:50That's what I feel.
09:51I can't even have a slash about my perinone on my shoulder.
09:54Oh, blimey.
09:55I'm in the pressure.
09:55I don't need it.
09:57I do my best to keep my nose clean.
09:59Don't go back and have a place.
10:01I've had it with drugs.
10:02I ain't stupid.
10:03You're in the hard way what it does to you, right?
10:12Typical.
10:13If it carries on like this, no-one believe it, let alone being about as popular as a rat
10:17with rabies, I'm going to be pushed right back into the old bleeding nightmare.
10:21You know what I mean?
10:23What's all this?
10:24Oh, my God.
10:26It's a power cut.
10:31Now what am I going to do?
10:32I can't see properly.
10:34I don't know what we have to live in a basement for.
10:35Look, don't panic.
10:36The lights will be back on soon.
10:37Where's the rush?
10:38Yeah, we're just starting to come right.
10:40We all design our stuff.
10:41Our own label.
10:42We'll be rich.
10:43Look, your mother's due any minute.
10:45Tony!
10:45Come in, Hannah.
10:47No, I'll keep my path to the bargain.
10:48Look, you want to be a good businessman, you've got to learn to cope with things when they
10:51go wrong.
10:52You know, use the initiative.
10:54You got any candles, Mr. Carpenter?
10:56No way.
10:56You want to set this place on fire?
10:58Yeah, but Dad...
10:58Hang on, you must have a torch.
10:59If you've got a torch, I'll be showing you.
11:01Yeah, but I don't do it.
11:01Ah, come in, come in.
11:03We seem to have another power cut.
11:04It happens all the time, you notice.
11:07Everything seems to be breaking down.
11:09Look, I'm doing some work around the calf.
11:11We can talk around there in private, if you want.
11:13What's that you're doing, Kelvin?
11:16Knitting?
11:19You can't do that, mate.
11:20Push-putting pumps off.
11:22Have you noticed?
11:22We're having a power cut running nearly every week.
11:24I bet they don't get one at the House of Commons.
11:26Oh, no.
11:26They'd soon do something about it then.
11:28So, manuals, all right?
11:29I'll have two parts of that then, Ben.
11:32Oh, no, look.
11:34If I've been all ready, I thought we were going to get away with it for a bit.
11:37What's it going to be, then?
11:38Well, you tell me, mate.
11:40Guinness.
11:41I don't know what it is about those Irish, but no matter what happens, it always seems okay.
11:45Right, you all right?
11:46Here, Pete.
11:47Ain't it marvellous, eh?
11:48Bloody modern science.
11:49We end up using a good old-fashioned lock and key.
11:51Here, listen, mate.
11:52I know you're up to your eyes, isn't it?
11:53But I've got to ask her something later.
11:55Look, I'll come back and have a word with you after I've something to cut with Arthur.
11:59Yeah, you can pay me then and all.
12:00Cheers, mate.
12:02You're going to have to make your mind up and quick.
12:04Not now, Ange.
12:05It's an honour, isn't it?
12:06To be asked to be a godfather.
12:08Look, we've had all this out before.
12:09After all the family's done for you, where would you be without Pete, eh?
12:13Why can't you just say yes and we can all get on with it?
12:16I'm going up to this to get some change.
12:23Oh, I don't believe it.
12:25That's the second pair this morning.
12:26Good nasty boxes.
12:28If I get through 40 of these a week, I'll get to the game free and it helps the club.
12:32Good scheme, eh?
12:33What do you think?
12:33I think it's some better clubs to waste my own issues on.
12:36Mind you, there's no accounting for taste.
12:38They've got great potential.
12:39There's a lot of young talent there.
12:41They just want waking up a bit.
12:43Waking up?
12:43They want nagging, resurrecting.
12:45Here, do you want another drink?
12:47No, I don't think so.
12:47Guinness never was my tipple.
12:49Anyway, nice to catch up with you.
12:50Glad you had a good holiday.
12:51It went all right, Dick.
12:52No problem.
12:53Hard work.
12:54But then you know me.
12:55Always was a craft.
12:56Yeah, well, I know that.
12:58Look, I'm sorry the way I was behaving to you.
13:00I mean, I'd know you all right.
13:02You sure you don't want another drink?
13:03Well, just a quick one.
13:04Make it a bottle of lager.
13:05That'd be nice and cold.
13:06That'd be drinkable anyway.
13:08All right, Mum.
13:08What do you want?
13:09I'll have a short.
13:10I know you do.
13:11It's a float much when pensioners can't have a nice bit of telly with their dinner.
13:16If you ask me, I blame the...
13:17Government.
13:18What for?
13:19What are they all for?
13:20Oh, I don't know.
13:21But there's always a reason.
13:23Always a reason.
13:24You mark my words.
13:26There's no use banging it.
13:27The pounds are off.
13:28It's a boulder.
13:29Where's the sweaters going in?
13:30Yeah, all right.
13:31I'm going over there.
13:32Like, it's more real.
13:33Well, when you've got them done, maybe you can make me one with me name across your throat.
13:36Look good, don't you think?
13:39Hey, this bottle of lard is as hot as my night-time coker.
13:43I give up.
13:45Listen, I'm on work for you.
13:48Here.
13:49I saw you talking to that Nick.
13:51You gone softened it or something?
13:54Do you know what mixing with that refresh's going to land you?
14:02One of these days, we'll find a proper place to hold a conversation.
14:06What a mess.
14:08I don't understand you.
14:09I mean, all your talents and you're still doing jobs like this.
14:12If I get any paint on my clothes, I'll just add it to the rest of the money you owe
14:15me.
14:16Oh, man's got to work, right?
14:18I mean, we can't talk in front of the boy.
14:21You won't go to the pub.
14:24You want me to book you a table at the rates?
14:26Now, look, I took the day off work.
14:27I would have thought this was important enough for you to do the same, if this is what you call
14:31work.
14:32You think what?
14:33What did you say?
14:35You've got no idea, have you?
14:36I mean, all the bills I've got to keep paying, just trying to keep up...
14:39Keep up what?
14:40Now tell me that, eh?
14:42I mean, what do you do with all that top management salary, eh?
14:46Standards.
14:47You mean, buy more things to cram in that overstuffed house?
14:49Just keep yourself busy polishing so you don't have to think what you turn yourself into, right?
14:54Yes, well, I was trying to build a home for us all, to be a good wife and mother.
14:58Look, I'm not saying that you won't.
14:59As well as earning most of the money to maintain it.
15:02You really learn how to put the knife in every time.
15:05That's my Hannah.
15:06I'm not your anything.
15:08Right first time.
15:09And you know what that means?
15:10It means I don't owe you anything anymore.
15:13You had the last check that you're likely to get from me, woman.
15:16You've had all I had to give, Hannah.
15:18And you...
15:19You can say that to me...
15:20You spent more time in a tabernacle than you ever did in my bed.
15:23What sort of a home do you call that?
15:25That was not a marriage.
15:26Ah, so that's what you tell all your dumb little girlfriends, is it?
15:29I can hear you say it now.
15:30My wife's frigid.
15:31It's a good line.
15:32It just doesn't happen to be true.
15:34I'm not a girl anymore, thank God.
15:36And I expect more from a man than that sort of rubbish.
15:38You have a mighty short memory.
15:40Don't you think so?
15:41Well, I learned from you just how to tell when a man's lying.
15:44At least the man I'm seeing at present shows me some respect.
15:46He knows better than to try it.
15:50What now?
15:51None of your business!
16:02Tony.
16:04Tony.
16:05Tony.
16:07You have got to talk about Kelvin.
16:11Can't you just try not to do this anymore?
16:17Okay.
16:19Whether you like it or not, we're going to the pub.
16:26How do you put the machines on?
16:28How can I put the machines on?
16:31You drill loose.
16:32Hey, Mars.
16:33Calm down.
16:34Oh, it's no good, I've had it.
16:36I can't cope no more.
16:37I'll lock it up.
16:38Don't get so hysterical.
16:39Look, you get down the job centre.
16:41You can pick me up from the pub.
16:46Right, now, I'll make an appointment with the local careers office,
16:49and you make sure he keeps it, okay?
16:51I shouldn't.
16:51I can see the sense of this business study's idea,
16:54if it's not another of his passing fads.
16:56Look, he's been working flat all the time.
16:58But I can tell you what they'll say, because I've been checking up.
17:01There's no way they'll accept him until he's retaken all of his O-levels.
17:04And to do that, we've got to get him into Walton College.
17:07The next year of his life, Tony,
17:09he's really got to get down to some serious study,
17:12because he won't be getting another chance.
17:17What do you got there, boy?
17:19Come here, go on.
17:22Oh, what a mess.
17:23Go on.
17:26Hello, darling.
17:27Nice to see you.
17:28I'm going frantic here.
17:29Thanks, sweetheart.
17:31Do you have a nice holiday?
17:32Well, when I'm coming, eh?
17:33What's the stuff you've got to stay back there?
17:35As if I didn't know.
17:36One of Den's projects.
17:38Let's go upstairs, eh?
17:39You can manage on his own for a change.
17:40You sure?
17:41Well, unless he wants me to have a screaming hysterics
17:43in front of the customers,
17:44the ones that are left that are choking on the warm beer.
17:46Show him, darling.
17:47How did you make yourself useful, eh?
17:49Take Rowley for a walk.
17:50I caught him trying to cock his leg on them blasted boxes.
17:53Mum, I want to watch the video.
17:54Get some fresh air.
17:55You can't watch a video with the pads on.
18:09Beverly, I'm feeling ever so friendly.
18:12I think I'm going to have one of my turns.
18:15Would you like me to see you home?
18:17Oh, if you would.
18:18Oh, you can't imagine what it's been like this morning.
18:22If a woman in my state of health
18:23ain't got enough to contend with worrying about her boy,
18:28it's nobody understands him, certainly.
18:31Won't it's fault that he got onto them drugs?
18:34It's the lack of a father's hand.
18:36That's been the trouble.
18:37I mean, if everybody's going to be against him,
18:41how's it going to get any better?
18:44I do, me baby.
18:45I mean, it's her mother's duty, eh?
18:48You'll understand that one of these days.
18:51I mean, it could happen to any of the kids round here.
18:55Look at Pauline's mug.
18:56Oh, dear, I should never have had that shandy on top of me pills.
19:02Nobody never told me it was an alcohol.
19:04You really should be careful.
19:06I've been all right when I've had to lay down.
19:10Yes, come on.
19:10I've always been highly struck.
19:13It's the cross I've had to bear.
19:16Same again, sir.
19:18And another thing, Kath,
19:19I don't know what I'm going to do with that girl.
19:20You're much better off with a boy, I'm telling you.
19:22They're much less bother.
19:25Anything in trousers at the moment and she's after it.
19:27I don't know about that, love.
19:29What do you mean?
19:30Always being easier.
19:32I mean, look at Mark and that Nick
19:33and what goes on round here.
19:35I worry about Ian getting dragged into all that, I'm telling you.
19:38Yeah, but your Ian's different, isn't he?
19:41Mind you, you and Pete are different, aren't you?
19:43You've got a good, solid marriage there, girl.
19:45Oh, yeah.
19:46But he's going to start taking girls out soon, isn't he?
19:48I mean, supposing he gets one into trouble, eh?
19:50We're going to feel just as responsible, probably worse.
19:53No, not him.
19:54He's got better things on his mind, hasn't he?
19:56Not like my Sharon.
19:58She's walking jailbait.
20:00I'm going to have to have a right old mother and daughter talk with her.
20:04What do you reckon, eh?
20:05They're all the same at that age.
20:07We were.
20:08Anyway, as you and Den doing.
20:11Has it been better since you come back?
20:14No.
20:14He's up to something.
20:16He wouldn't, would he?
20:17He bloody well would.
20:18I know him when he gets shifty.
20:22I think he's seeing that woman again.
20:24Oh, Ange, no, it's all in your head.
20:25It's not, Kath.
20:26I can sense it.
20:28You know what I'm talking about.
20:29You're married yourself.
20:32You can be wrong about these things, you know.
20:34Yeah, but I'm not.
20:35Since the first time it happened with that bloody female accountant
20:38and in the first pub we had, kept on talking about her all the time.
20:42How brilliantly she did the books.
20:44Then all of a sudden he stopped talking.
20:47That's when I knew.
20:49I was right then and I'm right now.
20:51Oh, you've done.
20:52It's no good pretending, Kath, is it?
20:54I mean, all right.
20:56You're lucky with Pete.
20:57You've got a good one.
20:58But we always end up the losers in the end, don't we?
21:03What's that?
21:04Oh, he'll be back soon.
21:05I just wanted to talk to you on your own.
21:08Oh.
21:09You're making that.
21:11Yourself?
21:11Yeah, well, sort of.
21:12Oh, it's lovely.
21:14No, really it is.
21:16Look, love.
21:17I know I've been a bit hard on you.
21:19Come and sit down on the chair.
21:20Come on.
21:23But I worry about you.
21:25I just want you to use all your talents.
21:27And, I mean, this time you have.
21:29You've started something and it's nearly finished.
21:31Do you like that, really?
21:32Yeah, but do you think it'll sell?
21:33Look, if you want to do business studies,
21:35I'll do everything I can to help you.
21:38But you've got to get down to some serious study.
21:41There's no room for amateurs.
21:43I know there.
21:44Your dad and I, our rounds,
21:46I know how much it upsets you.
21:48But both of us, and I mean both of us,
21:50always put you first.
21:52We don't mean to shout.
21:54It just happens.
21:55Do you want a cup of tea?
21:57Yes, I will.
21:58Oh.
21:58Well, there's a Coke in the fridge.
22:00All right, that would do anything.
22:02Look, if you like Kelvin, we'll try and help you.
22:05You sort it out
22:06and see if you and your friends can make this work, okay?
22:09Because I'm not so bad at business myself.
22:13You know, you won't admit it,
22:14but that's maybe where you get it from.
22:16You see, your granddad started from nothing,
22:18just like you.
22:19And look where he ended up.
22:32Hold up!
22:37Hang on a sec, eh?
22:39Can I have a word with you?
22:40Yeah, hang on a minute, Lottie.
22:42Just get my breath back, eh?
22:44What is it, mate?
22:45I wanted to talk to you about Nick.
22:47Oh, yeah.
22:48You know all about drugs and that, don't you,
22:49from working at the hospital.
22:51He's not getting involved again, is he?
22:53No, no, he ain't.
22:54Well, but you remember what happened last time and everything.
22:56Hey, it's not your responsibility.
22:59Stay clear of him, eh?
23:00But nobody else is going to help him round here, are they?
23:02I just thought, well, you might know a place
23:04where he could go for advice and that.
23:06Well, he's not the type of person
23:07who takes kindly to that sort of thing.
23:10Look, it's none of my business.
23:13But if you want some advice from me,
23:15you keep well out of it, eh?
23:16He is part of our community, Andy.
23:18He's one of us.
23:20I was talking to his mother yesterday.
23:22She's worried sick and she's a really nice woman.
23:24But what can we do, Deb, eh?
23:26Well, you must know somewhere.
23:28I thought you didn't believe in just theory.
23:30Well, there are drug dependency units
23:33and self-help groups.
23:34Look, I'll tell you what.
23:36I'll get some leaflets from the medical social workers
23:39at the hospital.
23:39OK, that do you.
23:42Come on, love.
23:42We've got a lot on today.
23:44I'll see you, love.
23:50Oh, hang on, Den.
23:52I've broken me nail.
23:53Oh, come on, lad.
23:54Let's get these upstairs before too many questions get asked.
23:56You're telling me, sunshine.
23:57Must be off my trolley agreeing to this, love.
24:00Yeah, well, you'll sing a different tune
24:01when the pennies start rolling in.
24:03Yeah, and if it ain't more than pennies,
24:04I'm going to have you singing soprano
24:05like that choir boy on the telly.
24:07You owe me for two pairs of tights and a complete manicure.
24:10Oh, get on.
24:11We'll soon be rolling, innit?
24:12Oh, I've heard that before
24:14in what we laughingly call our relationship.
24:16Hang on, Den.
24:20Catch!
24:21Hey, Lou, I've asked to have a word with you
24:23because we're both mothers
24:25and we've known each other since I was little.
24:29But there are bounds beyond which you do not step.
24:33When did my poor boy ever have a chance, eh?
24:37He means it this time.
24:39Your attitude ain't helping none.
24:41Oh, for heaven's sake, Lou.
24:43We've got the bill and the blooming social workers
24:45round our flat like other folks got, please.
24:48He's trying to go straight
24:50and the likes of you are spreading slander.
24:53I think we'd better talk about something else.
24:56You're an iron woman, Lou.
24:58Where's your Christian charity?
25:01Tell me that.
25:04Look, one of us has got to go downstairs, haven't we?
25:07This is bleeding ridiculous.
25:08Kathy and Lofty can manage.
25:09This is far more important.
25:12Sharon, darling, you might give us a hand.
25:14Oh, come on, princess.
25:15I'll give you a bit more pocket money if you do.
25:17You shouldn't have to pay her to help.
25:19There you go again talking about this
25:20if I'm not here.
25:21I'm not invisible, you know.
25:24Now, look what you've done.
25:26Why is it always me?
25:27Because you rub her up the wrong way.
25:28What about you setting a good example?
25:30Do what?
25:31You know what I'm talking about.
25:32Your daughter is turning into a right little tart.
25:35She's a crying girl.
25:36What's the matter with you?
25:37Jealous or something?
25:38Me?
25:39It's you I'm talking about.
25:41You and your goings on.
25:42I'd call it if I was you.
25:43That's a very dodgy area.
25:44Do you want to believe that?
25:45That's your problem.
25:47Oh, come on, hands.
25:49Just get these out of the way
25:50so we can earn some real money.
25:52I thought I'd go up West End
25:54and have a family outing
25:55so we'd get through to each other.
25:56Might even take her
25:57one of them fancy nightclubs
25:58she's always on about.
26:01Oh, can you manage on your own tomorrow night?
26:03Yes.
26:04Good, because I've got the rounds to do.
26:05Some customers to see.
26:07Oh, yeah, like who?
26:10Well, come on, name names.
26:12Well, just a few contacts.
26:13No one you'd know.
26:14Word of mouth from one or two of the fellas.
26:17Now, look,
26:17if we're going to make a profit on this deal,
26:18I've got to get out and sell, right?
26:19Otherwise, you, my love,
26:20will be sitting on that sofa
26:21for the rest of the year
26:22up to the knickers
26:23in duvets and sheets.
26:25Oh, Dennis, sometimes.
26:26I don't care what you say, Paul.
26:29You don't have to fall
26:30as far as that boy's concerned.
26:32There's never been any talent.
26:34Well, I mean,
26:35you can't help but feel sorry for her, Mum.
26:37Mum's sentimental rubbish.
26:39Look what he did to our mum.
26:41He's going to do the same to young Lofty.
26:43He's a good-natured boy there,
26:45and he'll get used
26:46if we don't put a stop to it.
26:48It's not an affair, is it?
26:50Oh, I think it is.
26:51I think Mum's right, Arthur.
26:53Perhaps if we'd done something
26:54sooner, our market.
26:56Oh, no, come on, love, don't we?
26:58I'll tell you what.
26:59Let's give Pete
27:00to your Lofty.
27:01He's the one with most sense
27:02in our family.
27:04Good thinking, Mum, that.
27:06She's turning into
27:07a right provocative little teaser.
27:09Yeah.
27:10She don't know what
27:11she's letting herself in for,
27:12does she?
27:13I was a bit worried
27:14this skirt was too short.
27:16You've got to keep him
27:17fashion, though, haven't you?
27:18Look, I've got a suit of custom.
27:22What do you think, Mr. Carpenter?
27:24That fashion's for young girls.
27:27Oh, I think they make
27:28you all look very pretty.
27:30Especially when you're
27:31young enough to get away with.
27:35That young woman
27:36is turning to be quite something.
27:37She's going to have
27:38a real way with the boys,
27:39just like her mother.
28:26a fact he knows.
28:27She's going to have
