- What's in my eye? - What is in your eye?

Which one is it?

Nearly there.

Are we there yet?

We are indeed.

And here we are.

Youse ready?

I'm so excited.

Welcome to Glasgow, kids.

- Got your coats? - No, we're fine.

- This is it. - Do we have the whole thing?

Not the whole thing. We don't have the basement.

But we've got that floor, that floor,

that floor and that floor.

- Do you like it? - Yeah.

- Let's get inside. - Come on, Fay. Let's get that...

Right, big man. You gonna help open this door?

- Yeah. - Me, too.

Right, big push. Go.

I'm gonna claim the biggest bed!

I'm gonna get the biggest and best bed!

- Careful. - Hey, look.

- What is it? - I dunno.

- What is it? - It's a box of biscuits.

"Here's to good neighbours, see you soon."

Jan, 9A, basement flat.

Isn't that lovely?

Yeah.

Who's Jan?

We haven't met her yet. She lives downstairs.

Well, shall we see our new home first?

Come on, let's explore.

Go, go, go, go.

Yep, yep, yep, yep!

Wow.

It's a palace.

We could play football in here.

Not with those windows you won't, kid.

Can we have takeaway? Pizza?

I dunno, maybe. We'll see.

It is incredible.

I'm gonna get the best, biggest room!

Let's go and get them.

Whoa! Have a look at this.

It's massive.

- You'll be able to swim in that. - We can all swim in it.

- Can we go outside? - 'Course.

Come on, Fay.

That's pretty good.

Yeah, really good.

So, is our new home.

I mean, it's a bit scary.

Scary?

Yeah. You're from down the road. I don't know anyone here.

You've got what's-her-name. Anne.

I haven't seen her for 15 years.

All right, but, I mean we'll make new friends.

Anyway, what's the difference between scary and exciting?

Maybe, you're excited.

Megged him. Megged him.

Give it, give it, ow!

Go on, Fay, get it off him.

You guys must be thirsty. Here, Paul, have a drink.

There's no time for drinks, Mum.

Paul, pass.

Hi.

Um, I'm from downstairs.

And I wondered if you'd like some pizza?

We just wanted pizza.

Hang on a second, can we introduce ourselves first, please.

This is Fay and Paul. I'm Rebecca, this is Martyn.

Hi.

Uh, you must be Jan?

Yeah. Um... Go on.

Yeah. Well, yeah... Um...

Jan.

But people call me Jan and I answer to anything, so...

Hi. Hi, Jan.

Um, thank you so much for those biscuits.

Oh, right. Yeah.

Well, I didn't think you'd have time to cook tonight, with everything going on.

That's so kind.

Are you a pizza maker?

Who me? Oh, no.

You should be. This is good.

Really good.

Thank you.

Okay. Big smiles guys.

Oh, sorry. I hope you don't mind.

Yeah, no. No, no. It's fine.

Three, two, one.

So, do you live below us?

I do, yes. Aye.

You're in the old servants' quarters, aren't you?

My dad thought you were a woman.

Oh!

- It's true. - Hey, sorry.

What do you do, Jan?

I'm an architect, myself. I've got a new office on Berkley Street.

My design's been shortlisted

- for the new Arts Hub. - Aye. Very good. Um. I work from home.

- Doing what, if you don't mind me asking? - I buy and sell NFTs.

So. Non-fungible tokens.

Uh, it's part of the Crypto thing.

Oh, aye.

Thought all that had taken a bit of a dive, hadn't it?

Goes up and down.

Anyway.

Um...

Nice to meet you all.

- Thank you. Bye. - Bye.

Thank you so much.

And, uh... I'll bring the board back.

Okay.

What a nice man.

Yeah. Lovely.

How could this get any better?

Play your cards right, something might happen later.

Oh, yeah?

Get an early night.

Yeah.

I'm gonna get in before you.

Are the flippers really necessary?

- Yeah. - Yes. Don't get in without me.

Go on, in you get.

Is it warm enough?

Yeah.

Oh, is that your weapon?

Fay!

Mercy! Mercy!

Get him, get him, get him!

Yeah, that is a slide. Are you gonna come in with us?

Five more minutes.

Five more minutes.

Peace, peace!

Oh, wait, shall we close the shutters?

There's no one overlooking us.

I love it here.

This place is amazing.

Hey.

It's your Dad's birthday next weekend.

I know, I know. I'm not saying let's go over.

Good.

But how about they come here?

No.

- Come on. - No.

My dad's never coming here, he'd spoil it.

Find some fault with the house and just...

we don't need that. Nobody needs that, all right? So, no.

Okay.

I didn't mean to bite your head off about it.

I'm sorry.

Apology accepted.

Right, you two.

Up. Fay, let's get a picture.

I want a picture out the front here, with the door in.

- Where do you want... - First day of new school. Big day.

Come on in, Mum.

Okay.

You ready? Smiles!

- Yeah! - Great.

Right, here, gimme a hug goodbye.

Where you going? It's the first day of school.

It's my first proper day in the office.

- Can't you go a bit later? - I've got to deliver the Hub brochures.

I promise-I'll do the school run tomorrow, all right?

- You better. - Right, have fun.

Why isn't daddy coming with us?

'Cause he's got an important first day today with his competition.

Big Issue.

Big Issue.

Martyn Berwick Architects.

Yeah. Speaking.

Ah, sorry, I'm gonna stop you right there, um...

We don't do extensions or loft conversions.

We're commissioned architects working on large-scale projects.

No, not at all and, uh, thank you for your inquiry.

Yeah.

John, hey.

Martyn. How you doing? Hello.

These are for you and members of the jury.

A few more images and angles.

I was gonna call you this morning.

Your design went forward last night with our blessing.

We've given it the big push, so, moment of truth.

- The committee meet tomorrow. - When do you think we'll hear?

Never can tell.

They have been known to make quick decisions.

I was looking at the model.

It'll be a building that makes people go "what is that place?"

I mean, its own advertising logo. It's the Glasgow Arts Hub.

I agree. Everything crossed, all right?

- I've gotta go. I'll speak to you soon. - Thanks for all your support.

No worries. Put the champagne on ice.

Jan.

Uh, lentil soup.

If you like lentil soup, I made too much, so...

Um...

I love lentil soup. Yeah. Thank you.

I was just staring at a salad going, "Really?"

So, thank you.

Hey, do you wanna join me?

Oh, no, I'm...

No, no, please. Come on.

Come in.

You're a really good cook, Jan.

- Oh. - Take it from me.

There's lentil soup, and there's lentil soup.

So, are you-are you from Glasgow?

Um...

I was adopted.

So...

I dunno.

But I grew up in Campbeltown. Near the bottom of Kintyre.

I went to Inveraray once.

A few hours on from that. It's...

it's at the end of the road to nowhere.

Makes you feel trapped.

So, how did you leave, uh, when... sorry, when, when did you leave?

It took a while, um...

I mean...

I wanted away from when I was...

I dunno, not even 10.

I mean, where'd you go at that age?

My mum was a single mum, and I'm an only child...

and, um, when she died, I...

Yeah, I realised I felt no ties to where I grew up.

To anywhere.

It's a strange feeling.

But this is home now.

Can I just say, um...

that's a lovely colour on you.

It's beautiful.

I'm... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to...

No, no.

Thank you.

I was thinking earlier, is this a good top?

And you like it, and I like it too.

Yeah.

Thank you. That was perfect.

Thanks.

Bye.

And your teachers?

Mr Manzy.

Right, so Mr Manzy and Miss...

Godbold.

And what are they like? Are they nice?

Yeah. Miss Godbold's very pretty.

Oh, is she?

She's got shiny red lips.

Oh, nice.

Oh, and, uh, Jan came round for lunch. He, um, he brought up some soup.

It was really nice.

Did he bring any biscuits?

Oh, biscuits and suddenly we're interested, eh?

No biscuits and...

Okay, Fay, Fay.

Come on bath-time, 'cause I wanna wash your hair.

I know, I know, darling. Come on.

- Come on. - No.

- Same to you, let's go. - Not washing hair.

Yes, it's all tangled.

Listen to your mother, children!

Listen to your mother!

Hello.

- Good morning. - Yes, good morning.

The market seems pretty flat.

Yeah.

The floor price is low, yeah. Has been all day.

- The burn rate's decreased. - Will it go lower?

Let's say sink or dip.

That's the name of the game, isn't it?

When to jump.

Yeah, let me know if it drops at your end.

Sure, will do.

Bye.

- Oh, my God! - Hello, oh, my God!

- Can't believe you're here. - So, good to see you.

- Jesus Christ, you haven't aged a day. - Oh, shut up.

Look at you.

It's amazing to see you.

- How have you been? - I'm good. How the kids?

Yeah, they're all right.

Wow. I can't believe you live in the same city as me.

- I know. It's insane. - How's the new house?

The house is ridiculous. I can't wait for you to see it.

- Thank you very much. - Enjoy.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

This is where you bring dates, is it?

Hmm. Yeah, there's lots of booths near the back,

so it's nice and intimate.

No, I mean, God, dating is just a nightmare.

Why?

Well, it's just impossible because I'm never here.

They get fed up. They think I'm not keen.

Like, you know, next week I'm in Oban Monday,

Edinburgh Tuesday, Thursday Dumbarton, Friday Aberdeen.

All over.

What about you? Going back to work? Gene therapy, right?

Yeah, gene therapy and stem cells.

I mean... I just don't know if seven years out is a bit too long.

Hey, I've got an ex who co-owns BioSCG.

- Do you know it? - Oh, my God, yeah.

I can put you in touch with him.

If you want.

I mean, it's a phone call. And he's lovely.

If you're not his girlfriend.

I mean, I could just ask him to give you a call.

Okay, you can make that call.

- Yeah? - Yeah, before I change my mind.

Okay.

- Hi. - Hi.

Uh, my version of lentil soup.

I hope you like a vanilla slice. It's one of my guilty pleasures.

Ha! I'm sharing my secrets with you.

Yeah. Uh, thanks.

Uh, I'd ask you in, but, um...

Oh, no, no, God. It's fine, it's fine.

Enjoy, bye!

Bye.

Oh.

Thought you might need some help.

Oh, no, I'm fine, thank you.

Vanilla slice was nice, thanks.

Oh, good. Um, I'm gonna have mine with the children.

Crumbs everywhere, mind.

Oh, God, don't. And I've just hoovered.

You must look lovely in those, too.

Hello?

- Hello, hello. - Hiya.

- Hey, darling. - Hi.

How are we, big man?

Can't talk, we're doing our homework.

Science homework.

So, please don't distract us.

All right. No distractions.

- How'd it go with your mate? - With Anne?

- Yeah. - It was great. I've invited her over.

Thought maybe have a dinner party with the Hub people.

Oh, yeah, that'd be nice.

Have you heard anything?

No, but...

...they're texting and making me feel wanted, so it's encouraging!

Oh, good.

You okay?

Yeah.

Something weird happened today.

- Weird? - Yeah. I was, um...

I was hanging out the washing in the backyard

and Jan came out, and we were chatting,

but then he saw some of my underwear

and suddenly said, "I bet you look lovely in those."

- What? - I know.

Then he just walked off, like I wasn't even sure, if he'd said it.

I mean, he did, but there was no build-up or anything.

Okay, well, um...

Yeah.

- I mean, I'm not saying do anything. - No, I mean...

if it happens again, or anything like it, I'll be having a word.

Yeah, I know. I'm sure it won't, but...

Oh, after seeing Anne,

I thought your dad's birthday, get him a present.

Here.

Well, I've thought about that, and...

We're not going.

It's only twelve days after we've moved, it's just bad timing.

It's his 70th.

And your mum invited us. Never mind your dad, think of her.

When was the last time you saw her?

Corrine's funeral.

Right, so maybe she's wanting happier times to remember.

Do it for your mum, okay. We can't not go.

- Right. - Okay.

I know it's only an hour, but has everyone been to the loo?

Yes!

I always feel sick going home.

How far's Grandma's?

Nearly there, I promise.

Oh. Here they come!

Oh, hello, hello!

- Grandma! - Oh, there you are.

- It's so good to see you. - Hi, Grandma.

Hello, look at you! You look so pretty.

So what's this? Is this presents for Grandad?

- Yeah. - How marvellous.

He's indoors, go and give them to him.

- Have you made a special cake? - I've made a special cake.

She's never gonna forget that cake.

- Hi. - Hello.

- It's lovely to see you. - And you.

I put the children in the spare room. They're big enough now.

They might come in with us, but thank you.

Hi, Son.

So, how was the move?

Ah, usual carry on.

It was great, we've got some photos to show you.

Brian's already got some photos downloaded from the Internet.

Is Brian here?

- Hiya! - Grandpa!

- Happy birthday! - How you doing? Thank you!

Thank you.

Oh, it's lovely to see you!

Rebecca.

Hiya, bro.

How are you?

Eh? Good to see you. Looking good.

Come and give us a hug. Just a quick one, eh?

Aye. Aye, aye, aye.

Whereas you...

can have as long as you like. Rebecca, how you doing?

- I'm very good, how are you? - Good, good.

- What's this? - It's your present.

Ahh!

Boy-boys, boys.

Come on. Let's be fraternal and bond, eh?

Eh?

- Oh, dear. - Jeez.

Where's the birthday boy? Hello, Allan.

- All right, Dad. - Hi, Son.

Behave.

- Happy birthday. - Thank you.

That's fantastic, keeps my lugs warm as well, eh?

Oh, that's wonderful.

- Is that you? - Hey?

- Next to Aunty Corrine? - Aye.

That's me in the Parachute Regiment.

Uh...

That's your great-grandad there.

And that's him with, uh, his wife, my mum.

Hey. Come on, come here.

Ah, it's great to see you. Hey.

I'm looking for Mr - Mrs Studs.

Right. So, uh, he and, uh, Mrs who?

- Studs. - Do you want a drink?

- I'm gonna go with this one. - Cup of tea.

That's the age he likes them. When they do what they're told.

He's in his element.

- Okay, shall we? - Oh, yeah, please. Thank you.

No. Right. Remember where it is.

Wait. Now, your turn.

Concentrate. Where is it?

What?

No.

I know that look. What?

So, uh...

are you glad to be home then, Mr West End?

Coulda bought four houses here for what you've paid for a postcode, bro.

But it's not just a house is it?

- It's a historic house. - Mmh.

With style. Something you'd know nothing about.

But because of my job and because I've got style,

I appreciate it.

Pretty hefty mortgage as well I imagine, Mr Style?

I've got plenty of work coming in. Don't you worry about it, brother.

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Dear Grandpa ♪

♪ Happy birthday ♪

♪ To you ♪

Cake for everyone.

Yeah. And extra strawberries.

Here, look at this.

Oh, here, there's your dad. Look.

That's when he was clay pigeon shooting, eh.

What's clay pigeon shooting?

Eh, oh, you get, um, it's like a wee, uh, disk of clay,

and it gets fired out a trap, and you with your shotgun go, bang!

Shoot it down.

Aye, your dad showed... he showed a lot of promise,

but, um, he sort of lost interest.

But your Aunty Corrine. Oh, my goodness.

Look at this.

Here you are, first prize.

Corrine, she was exceptional. She really was.

I liked Aunty Corrine.

Aye, I know love.

She was a wee cracker, wasn't she?

There's another prize. Young Shot of the Year...

It's lovely to hear him speaking about Corrine.

That amazing, hey? Anyway...

Make some space, then.

Here he comes.

Here he comes.

Ahh.

Lucky me.

Dad.

Dad.

Dad. No. No.

No. You see the doctor. Then what? Then what?

Jesus Christ.

What are you doing?

She wouldn't have died if he'd put her on that trial.

She wasn't eligible.

He cancelled her appointment.

That was the hospital!

There was nothing more they could do!

You can hold it, if you want there.

Ah, look. That's it.

No!

So, you see that wee cross? See that?

- Yeah. - That's called the reticule.

- Oh, there you are. - Hey, are you okay?

Paul!

Nice and steady.

Paul! Paul!

Put that down.

Give me that thing. Get inside to your mum.

Move!

- What the hell are you playing at? - I'm just showing them the rifle, Martyn.

These are my kids. I don't want them near them fucking things.

I will never forgive you for this.

Why are you letting them down there?

- Come on, mate. - Just sit on your ass...

Get in the car. Move!

I knew they were in the garden,

I knew they were in the shed, but I had no idea.

If I'd known he'd got his guns out I...

In the car. Seatbelts. Fay, seatbelt on. Now! Paul, move!

Please. Martyn, please.

Just come back inside, and we can talk about this.

Mum, I don't want my kids anywhere near guns.

I know that. I know that, and it will never happen again.

They shouldn't be anywhere near 'em. Full stop. And neither should he.

We're going, okay. We're leaving.

Bye, Grandma.

Bye. Lots of love.

Bye.

Bye!

Why are we leaving? I thought we were staying the night.

No, we're not gonna stay the night anymore.

What was Grandad showing you in there?

- He showed me his gun. - And he said we can go hunting.

No, you're not going hunting.

We don't play with guns. They're not toys.

Sorry for shouting earlier, okay?

It's okay.

Night-night.

- Paul. - Yeah?

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Do you think Dad's okay?

Yeah. He's fine.

Dad.

Don't.

Hey.

I really can't believe he did that.

I thought he'd given up his guns after the whole Corrine thing.

He said he would.

He said he had.

I mean, after that...

He was grieving back then, though.

To have your child die in front of you.

I'd say he was calmer now, though.

Hey, much calmer.

Ronnie. Spin.

Forwards.

- Tuna sandwiches without the crusts on. - And wink.

And wink. Okay. You can have that.

Right, pop this on.

- Undeed. - Undeed? Is that a word?

You can do that bit.

- Have you heard anything from the Hub? - Not yet. Right.

Team Berwick, we are all gonna have

the greatest, bestest, most brilliant day ever, all right?

- And that is an order, okay? - Yes, sir.

- Okay. - Love to see it.

Oh, God, please, wait.

- Love you guys. Love ya. - Let's go, let's go!

- Did you bring everything? - Did I bring everything?

Well, I've got you and I've got you.

And I've got me. So, I think so.

- What drink did you bring? - What drink did I bring?

You've got the orange squash you asked for...

John.

You keep me in suspense. Uh, what's the news?

Ha ha. So, Martyn.

Look, the committee loved you, they loved your design.

Mm-hmm.

Unfortunately, they've decided to go with another architect.

I know this isn't what you wanted to hear.

Yeah, I'm...

...naturally disappointed. You know, how could I not be?

But, um...

it was nice to be in the frame and, uh, you know just...

good luck with it all, yeah, um...

hope it's, hope it's a massive success.

Thank you. Really appreciate that, Martyn.

- Good luck going forward. - Okay, you too.

- Okay, thanks. Bye. - Bye.

Fuck!

Oh!

Stop it. It's fine.

Have you heard?

Sorry, hello?

Yeah, hi.

You... you cut out for a second there. Um...

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine. Just...

No word yet. They haven't heard,

so they want to take me out to lunch

to a top restaurant, um...

Wow, that's great!

Let me know how it goes.

Yeah, okay. Bye.

Bye, good l...

- Good afternoon. You joining us for lunch? - Yeah, yeah.

- Table for one? - Yeah, just myself.

Do you want to take the window?

I can hang your coat for you.

Thanks.

Good afternoon, sir. Can I get you anything to drink?

Um... I'll have a glass of champagne, please.

- And the taster menu. - Absolutely.

Last one to the door is- a bucket face!

- Paul's the last one. - Paul, be nice.

No, the bucket face is you, Fay.

Oh, look. It's a card and flowers!

Oh, no don't. Don't touch it.

It's for you.

Can we play on the tablet?

Um...

Yeah.

Hey, hey. Um...

Just walking into a meeting. Literally a face-to-face.

Yeah.

Oh, uh, um... good luck.

Call you in a bit, okay?

All right, bye.

Bye.

Look at that dragon.

He's acting like the whole castle's his.

Look at him, he has one tooth.

Hi. Uh, this is Martyn Berwick Architects.

You called last week about an extension you're planning

and we have just this week expanded our workforce

so if you're still looking for an architect,

we can now offer that service.

Oh, excellent. Yeah. Uh, no, just really happy we can help.

Uh, just give me a second, okay,

and I'll see where we can fit you in the diary.

Okay, thank you.

Hello.

Yes. How's next week?

Fay. Come here, now. We need to finish your hair.

- Stop it! - Fay!

- I don't like it! - Paul, tell her.

She won't listen to me.

Right, well I'm coming down.

Come on, young lady, we're not playing this game.

- Daddy! - Hello, darling. Oh!

Hi, Dad.

How was your meeting with the Hub people?

Were they the people you had dinner with?

Yeah. Um...

Mummy got flowers and a card with lots of kisses in it

by the biscuit man downstairs.

Yeah, okay, why don't you two play in the front room with Ronnie and Rosie.

Go on. Have a little race.

Ronnie and Rosie, take them with you.

And take this, Fay.

That's it, good girl. Hurry up.

Don't... don't touch it. It will stain your fingers.

I know.

"You took my photo, can I take yours?

You invited me in,

and when I said you look lovely,

you said you liked it.

So did I.

I like watching you.

I like thinking of you in those things you were hanging up.

And I like sharing secrets..."

- Okay, don't read anymore. - "And when I licked your vanilla slice?"

I wanted to throw it away, but if the children saw me do...

What the fuck-what vanilla slice?

He brought me some soup.

Then he's licking your vanilla slice?

Yes, I took him a cake as a gesture.

- Fuck this. - Martyn, what are you doing?

Martyn, you're gonna make it worse.

Jan!

Jan!

Open up!

I know you're in there.

Jan, open the door!

Unacceptable.

Unacceptable and inappropriate.

Leave my fucking wife alone.

Do you hear me?

- Hey. - Hey.

So...

what did he say?

He apologised.

He wouldn't come out,

but from the other side of the door, he said sorry.

So, it's been put right.

Okay. It's done.

Okay.

Anyway tell me about your meeting with the Hub people.

God.

What?

I've pulled out.

What do you mean?

I had to.

They lied ab...

They didn't tell me they've had a funding cut.

Which isn't their fault,

but the Hub budget's been reduced by a third,

and you can't build my design for that.

- Why didn't they tell you? - I don't know.

But slash the budget by that much and it's a simple decision.

Can't be done.

It's impossible.

Just wish they'd been straight with me.

- How do you feel? - Really sad.

You know, disappointed.

It was a great design.

It is a great design.

There'll be other projects.

And we come here for a better life.

And there's a great, big, beautiful park

right there on our doorstep

which none of us have been to yet.

So, tomorrow we're gonna get the kids,

we're gonna explore, and we're gonna have some fun.

Sounds like a plan.

Oh, head. Nice!

Out we go.

- I'm gonna nutmeg you ten times! - You're not gonna nutmeg anybody.

Yes, we are!

We're gonna nutmeg you!

Far enough. Don't run close to that road.

- Tag no returns. - Tag no returns.

Hey, wait till we're off the stairs...

Wait till we get to the bottom of the stairs.

Bottom of the stairs.

High five.

So, next time can we go to the skate park?

Yes, well, we could,

if Paul's gonna teach us all to skate.

But I don't need to tell you that.

Becs.

Police Scotland.

"I am writing to report the neighbours who live directly above me."

"I can hear things in the flat. The people upstairs have two small children."

"And I can hear them doing unspeakable things to those little children." What?

"Telling them to do the worst things you can imagine."

- What is this? - Oh, my God.

"The severity and frequency of these occurrences

have left me deeply troubled, which is why I'm writing to you."

"Touching them. Hurting them."

"Further investigation is warranted and I trust

that your department will take immediate action.

Why is he doing this to us?

Mr Boyd, it's the police.

Mr Boyd, it's the police. Can we have a word, please?

Mr Boyd?

We're chasing our tails here. This one's not for us.

Okay, Mr and Mrs Berwick, if you keep hold of this for now

the Child Protection Unit will be in contact.

What? You're not just going, are you?

What would you like us to do, Mr... Mr Berwick?

You've just read this. He's harassing us!

I have, and that is Mr Boyd reporting what he believes to be a crime,

which he's entirely entitled to do.

And what are we entitled to? How about some protection?

As of now, as far as we're aware,

Mr Boyd has not committed a crime.

This is a fucking joke!

There's nothing more we can do.

Oh, my God.

Are you serious?

Look at me and listen, okay?

I'm gonna sort this...

I will not let this happen to us.

- What are we gonna do? - Plenty, just you watch.

He's a fucking weirdo, and this stops right now.
