All language subtitles for On The Buses s07e07 Goodbye stan

You've got nobody to support, but I
can't keep it happening anymore. Not on

wages, not on what they pay me as a
busman's wages. All the food going up,

to support mum at home. It's absolute
murder.

Well, I'll tell you something, mate,
I've put in for another job. You

Well, I've had... Did you get the job?

Well, no, I've had the interview, and
I'm just waiting to see.

But I said, if I don't get any more
money off of these people here, and that

comes up, I'm taking it, mate. Oh, no,
don't be so hasty. Well... I'll tell you

what, Blake is in his office. Go and ask
him for some more overtime.

In his office now? Yeah. He's usually on
the prowl this time of the morning.

Yeah, I know, but... Ah, it's no good of
asking. Ah, come on, it's worth a try.

Oh, all right, then. You've got to ask
him, mate.

It's got no hope in it.

What's he doing?

What are you doing?

I'm his father Christmas.

Hey, you don't normally shave, do you?
Oh, yeah, I've got it.

He's been out all night. He's been on
the tiles.

Jack has got a bride.

Will you come in here out of it? Come
on.

Well, what are you doing shaving in
here?

It's my landlord.

He's locked me out of the bathroom.

He went and put a padlock on the door
and won't let me in there.

When did that happen? Three weeks ago,
but he's only just found out.

He wanted to put me rent up, and because
I said I couldn't pay, he's charging me

five bob to go in the bathroom.

Well, five bob for a bathroom. Ain't
bad.

There's a lavatory in there.

No wonder you come to work early. Yeah,
he must have run all the way.

Now, what do you want, anyway?

I'd like some more overtime, because I
can't manage on the money I'm getting at

the moment.

You can't manage? What do you think I'm
doing here today? I can't manage either.

Nobody can manage on the money. There's
no overtime going, Butler. Oh, well, if

that's the case, I've got to get myself
a better job with better wages.

That's a laugh, that is, mate.

What's so funny about that?

Who's going to employ a layabout like
you?

There's no other job going with a lot of
money, you know, for doing nothing.

Well, you've got one.

Well, I may appear to be doing nothing
to you, Butler, but I'm here using my

brains, mate. Oh, are you, yeah? Doing
what?

Thinking of ways I mean to stop you from
getting overtime.

Now, get out, go on. Why didn't I tell
you? A waste of time, Jack.

Mum?

What? Mum, it's arrived.

What's arrived?

My new job. Eh?

You never said nothing about a new job
to me.

Well, no, no, but I went up for an
interview the other day and I've got a

Oh, I just said it in case it didn't
come up, but I've got a job, see? Well,

lovely. Yeah, it's in a car factory up
north.

Up north?

But you can't leave home. Well, not now.

Why not?

Well, you can't leave home until Olive
gets married again.

Well, blimey, if I wait for her to get
married, it won't be any point. I'll get

me pension.

What?

You know what I mean. I mean, you won't
be getting married this weekend, will

you? And I've got to go Monday.

Monday? Oh, yes, I will.

Oh, this is terrible, you.

What do you mean, Joe? I thought you'd
be pleased.

Oh, is there anything like that?

My little son leaving home so soon.

So soon? Blimey, I've been here nearly
40 years.

Well, I think it's very selfish of you.

Going off and leaving Olive and me alone
in the house without a man.

Well, look, look, look, you'll have to
get yourself another husband, you know,

and if you can't get a husband, you'll
have to sort of, you know, get yourself

fixed up, you know what I mean?

Fixed up?

You're not projecting that Olive should,
um, without being married?

Well, she didn't have so much of her
room when she was married.

It's all right, nobody takes much notice
of things.

Oh, well, I never thought I'd live to
see the day when a son of mine would

such a suggestion. Oh, Mum, don't be
like that. Look, I've got to have a

job. I tell you, do you know, with this
job up there, do you know what? With

overtime, I can pick up 50 quid a week.

Oh. Oh, as much as that? Yes.

Oh, well, perhaps I was being a little
icy.

You'd better go.

Mine too, Mum.

With all the expenses and digs, I won't
be able to give you as much as I give

you now, you know. Oh, well, on second
thought, I think you'd better stay home.

I mean, after all, you're used to all
your own comfort here.

Olive, I think Stan's sausages are
ready.

Oh. Oh, yes.

By the way, Stan, if you go away, you
won't have pizza cooked for you.

Yeah, I know.

Well, you know, love, you won't like it
up north. It's all different, you know.

It's always raining.

And you won't like the food.

It's all that black pudding and things
like that.

Yeah, well, when Olive's cooking, it's
black everything.

I thought you'd leave me.

Please, Mum, love, don't get upset.

Well, how can I help you? Olive,

pass me me pen and pad.

You don't have to write to me now.

I'm not going to. I'm just going to
write out an advertisement to let you

for a lodger.

I'll make you some, isn't it? Look, you
might wait like I'm not going till

Sunday. Well, don't expect clean sheets
tonight. It's not worth it.

bedroom.

I can't bear it, dear. How much do you
think I'll get?

About four quid a week.

Is that all?

Oh, well, I'll put down five and hope
for the best.

What are you all... Tom was getting down
to that boat. You know the job I told

you about?

Oh,

great, mate. Congratulations.

Well, this is the best news we've had
for years.

Yeah, Bill, you seem like he's not in
his office. No, he's not here yet, mate.

He is late, isn't he?

Must be the first time ever. Yeah, come
on. Hang about. I've got to tell him I'm

leaving.

Frankie, look how he comes.

Oh, yeah?

He's just come back from a jumble sale.

No, I know who it is. He's going on his
holidays.

You can see how happy he is. He's too
shut up. I've had just about as much as

can take.

Don't stay in there. Help me out to get
some coffee.

What happened then, Flanky?

I've been forced out of my lodging.
That's what's happened.

Did the head lord lock you out of the
bathroom again?

I had to break the door down, look.

You must have been in a hurry to get in.

I was already in there trying to get
out.

When I broke the panel and got out,
there was a big dog waiting.

Was he waiting to go in?

It's no laughing matter.

all that in there waiting for me to stop
me getting out. There, look.

He had his teeth right in there.

Yeah, good job you got your trousers up
in time.

I was doing me washing.

Oh, yeah, look, I hadn't even had time
to dry it properly. Look at that, look.

Oh, I'd better put all this on the
radio. Oh, come on, mate, I'll give you

hand. Oh, blimey.

There you are. You see, we always
thought it was something peculiar about

No, give a sake, mate.

No, I took them down by mistake.

You took them down by mistake?

With him outside the door? No wonder he
kicked you out.

They was on the line.

Oh, thank God.

Now, what do you want? Oh, Blake, I've
come to tell you something important.

Yeah, and I've got something to tell
you, Butler.

You're five minutes late. Get your bus
out, come on. I'm trying to tell you.

telling you, Butler, anyone who starts
anything today is going to get the sack.

Now, get out. Will you listen to me? The
sack!

Let him sack you.

What are you talking about? Look, if you
chuck in your notice now, your money

stops straight away, right?

But if he sacks you, he's got to give
you a week's money in lieu of notice.

Oh, clever, yeah.

The easiest week's wages I've ever
earned.

Come on.

Get a number 10 out, come on.

No, Blake, you know, I don't fancy
taking a number 10 out.

You won't.

I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll take
two fives out for you.

Are you taking a Mickey bus?

Now, you get in that cab right away and
take that bus out or I'll sack you. Now,

don't get aerated just because the
landlord caught you with his missus.

You can't talk to me like that, partner.

What are you taking for?

A fish -faced twit.

Did you hear that?

He insulted me. Did you hear that? He
was rude.

Deliberately rude, he was then.

Butler, you take that back right away or
else I'll sack you. Well, I can't take

it back because you are a fish -faced
twit.

You're sacked!

Sacked! Right, just a minute. Hang
about.

Oh,

here we go. Here's the whole union
business.

Oh, I like you, Gil. I was merely going
to point out the brother Butler here is

entitled to a week's money in lieu of
notice.

I'll give him a week's money. If I had
my way, I'd give him ten weeks' money.

Here, I'll give you a little check,
Butler. You can take this up and get

money, right?

Yeah, you don't need to come back on
Monday.

Yeah, I'll take it.

Well, thanks very much, Blakely. That's
if you've no way to want it. That's how

you want it.

He's talking.

He's talking sex.

I've sexed him.

I've sexed him.

After all these years, I've sexed him.

Oh,

it's made my day.

I must go and tell the manager.

I want you to take a look at this, you
see.

Because I was trying to show you this in
the room there. In your office, and you

wouldn't listen to me. So I'll just take
a look at it. I've got another job, you

see, as you'll see by now.

So I'm going to leave in any case.

You tricked me.

You tricked me out of a week's wages,
didn't you?

I'll tell you what, Blakey.

Oh, God, this is making my day.

That's the last time I'll bring her back
from the Severity Gates.

That's the last time I'll switch the old
engine off, mate.

Yeah.

Ah, there.

Ah, there's Blankie.

Ah, mister.

Ah, yes.

We've done a few miles together, me and
the old girl here.

Through fair river and foul.

Yes. I shall miss her.

It's like John Wayne saying goodbye to
his horse.

Now, I know our feelings about the extra
weeks to wages then, Blankie. No, I've

got the manager taking out the road
safety fund.

Huh? Yeah.

Keeping you off the road.

Come on, mate, let's push off. Now, wait
a minute. I promised Mum to put this

notice up on the board. What was that
then? She's let in my room, you see.

She's looking for a lodger.

Oh, there you go, Blankie. Look, you're
looking for digs. Now, it's a nice room.

Well, there goes Sister Olive there.
Now, you might do yourself a bit of

mate, eh?

No, don't mind about that. It's not a
bad idea, actually, yes.

I might think about that, Butler. I
might give your mother a ring. If I'm

desperate and it's the last room left in
the town.

Goodbye. Well, don't have to say
goodbye. I'm catching a bus to the

tomorrow.

Oh, well, I'd better get home, Jack,
now.

What are you talking about? No, Sister,
mate.

You're coming up to the social club for
a drink, aren't you?

Oh.

No, look, it's a little of my last
night. I promised Mum I'd get home. Come

you're just going to have the one. Look,
it's six o 'clock. That's all. All

right, all right. I'll have one with
you, mate. Right.

Down in one. Down in one.

Good old Stan.

There you go, right.

Oh,

no, no, not another one.

I said I'd have one with you. Listen,
you haven't had one with me, have you? I

mean, you've had one with Bill. You've
had one with Harry. You've had one with

Bert. And one with me. Yeah, but you
haven't had one with me.

Well, I'm dead pleased with what we've
done for him. I've got all his favourite

things. But he'll be thirsty when he
comes in. Now, where did I put the

love? Oh, on out, in here. Yes.

Ah, there. Haven't you finished whipping
that cream yet? Oh, it's nearly done,

Mum. Oh, he loves a nice bit of cream on
his trifle. He'll be famished when he

comes in.

There you go, boy. I'll miss you,
Chalky. I'm going to miss everybody. And

stand as some three other boys.

I can't drink anymore.

Oh, I'm having a marvellous time. I
promised Mum I'd get home, G.

Look, I'll tell you what. I'll tell you
what, boy.

I'll ring at home and say you're going
to be a bit late. Hello?

I'm speaking from the demo.

Now, Stan's agreed to do a late shift
just to oblige Blakey.

Oh, well, how many extra trips will he
have to do?

Quite a few, I should think.

Don't you worry, I'll get him home by
closing.

I'll get him home by 11 o 'clock, all
right? Thanks for letting me know.

Dad's going to be late.

Oh, Mum, I can't wait. I'm so hungry.
Can't we have ours now?

Well, I suppose we'll have to.

And I did so want his last night to be a
nice, happy family party.

to pull myself together a bit.

Put that out of the way because I don't
want you to see it.

Lovely, Mum. Come on, now. Come and sit
down. Thanks very much, Mum.

Are you all right now? Oh, yes, yes,
yes. Just tired, Mum. You know, I've

working all day, you know. Well, that
last shift, you know.

Oh, it takes it out if you've done it,
love. There you are. It certainly does,

Mum, yes. Now, look at that.

Now, enjoy it.

Because it's all cooked in good bacon,
Pat.

Olive!

dinner. It's the last night. Oh, thank
you, sir.

Oh, you greedy girl.

Fancy taking his food.

You had yours earlier.

You can't have your brother's dinner.
All right, I won't. I'm going straight

bed. Oh, yeah, well, take no notice of
it, love. You get on with it. Yes, ma

'am, yes. Because you love it, dear.
Yes, thank you, ma 'am. Oh, you've got

wellies out.

Yes, ma 'am, yes. I'm glad about that.
You'll need them up north to this very

well. Yes. Shall I put them up here for
you? No, no, leave it. I'll take them up

when I go up to bed, ma 'am, yes.

All right, ma 'am. I've enjoyed that.
Thank you. Thank you, Mum. Thank you

much, Mum. That's it, dear.

I'd have had a very hard day, Mum, you
know.

And I... It

was just that Blake, you know, he

gave me another shift.

He's a beautiful man. He's absolutely
marvellous.

You see, I'm... You see, I'm...

And...

You

see, I was...

As I said to Jack... of time, you know,
Mum.

Oh, love, you must have been famished.
Oh, I'm sure you

were. Well, I think I'll go up to bed
now.

And now it's been a trifle to finish off
with.

You are, love.

There, now, go on. Eat down and enjoy
it.

But don't eat it too quick. It's a bit
sickly.

I'll just finish over here. Well, I must
say, I wasn't expecting this.

Guys,

it's a beautiful trifle, Mum.

I won't go to bed now, ma 'am. Oh, not a
little more. No, thanks. No, no.

Well, see you tomorrow, then, ma 'am.
All right. Good night, ma 'am. Get rid

your boots. No, I'll go take them
upstairs.

I had stopped her shouting.

Oh, now, look, love. Come on.

Wake yourself up. Drink your tea.
That'll wake you up. You're the

there.

What's he doing here?

I don't work anymore. Tell him to buzz
off.

Well, love, he can't get a room anywhere
in town.

And he's come to see this room.

Well, it's tea school. He's not a car
drinker. Well, it'll wake you up, love.

And I'm going to make this bed. That's
all.

Mummy must have been one of the last
-night prankster boys playing on me, you

know. Well, what ignorant lout would put
food in a boot?

I bet they wouldn't put it in their own
boot.

I suppose they would, Mum, really. Oh,
love, I've got to get this all cleared

before the inspector gets here.

The inspector said he had to go.

Oh, thank God for that. I brought him
up.

Sorry to interrupt.

Oh, it's all right.

I should throw you the place in a bit of
a mess, but you know it's like when you

pack it to go away, you know. A bit of a
mess, yeah.

Well, I'll have a look round the place
and see if it suits me, you see.

You know I'll suffer with a touch of
bronchitis, Mrs Butler. I couldn't stay

a damp room, you know. Oh.

Yeah.

Well, that bed looks a bit damp, doesn't
it?

Maybe it's dripping wet or something.

No, no, that's nothing to do with the
room, Inspector.

That was damp.

I've spilt a cup of tea all over me. I'm
ringing with you. Now, don't worry.

I'll have it all in nicely for you
tomorrow.

Oh, oh, oh. I see you've only got lino
on the floor, Mrs Butler.

It's very cold underfoot in the morning,
you know. I suffer with chill blanks.

Well, there should be a... Oh, it's got
shifted.

Get out, Olive, will you?

What's that?

Well, I've heard of people sweeping dust
out of the rug, Mrs Butler, but that's

blooming ridiculous, isn't it? Don't
worry, Inspector.

I'll have it all in nicely...

this evening.

Yeah, well, if I do take the room, Mrs
Butler, I'd move in tomorrow.

Then you can scrub it out twice.

What's this uniform doing down there on
the floor? Oh, it's mine. I'm not using

it anymore, so I don't need it. Well,
you should have handed this in. I'll

it back to the depot with me. No, no!

No, no, no. Don't take it away.

It's mine.

No,

wait a minute. It's got my personal
things in there. All right, but this is

private uniform.

I won't touch your personal things.
Here, I'll take them. Here, I shall want

What's that?

Oh, and that's food, that is.

Good food. That's a wife.

Do you know, that's almost as big as the
one I gave Stan last night.

Of course, it's nothing like the
quality.

Watch it. Watch it.

What a fine tightness he's got.

Butler, I think you'd better have that
fumigating, that uniform, before I take

that back.

Talking about that, what about a pong in
here, eh?

What is it, stale beer or something?

How much rent do you think they're
charging for this place? Well, Mum was

asking, so about five quid for it, you
see. Five quid?

Four pounds.

Yeah, I think four sounds a bit more
like it, Mrs Butler. Yes, and don't

Inspector. I can have it all clean and
ready for you this evening.

Stan's got to leave early this
afternoon.

Oh, my love, I will miss you. And you
will write every week? I will write

week, Mum.

And you'll register the letter?

Yes.

Why should I register the letter?

Well, you will be putting a few pounds
in it each week, won't you, love?

Well, I promise I'll just do my best.
That's all I can do.

Oh, I shall miss you, love.

And I shall look forward to your letter.
Bye,

love. Bye -bye, Mummy.

Oh,

come on. Hurry up, or we'll be late.

Listen, don't talk to me like that.

I want you to treat me as you do one of
your passengers.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Roy, you get all...

And another thing, passengers carry
their own cases.

It's not the job of the conductor.

Inspector, just a minute, will you?

I would like to inform you in the
conductor here that I would like to be

as a passenger.

Oh, would you?

Well, in that case, you'll have to pay
your fare then, won't you?

Give him a ticket, will you? And a
ticket for each one of those cases, come

They're over the limit.

Right, that will be 28p, sir.

What a shame.

I haven't got any change.

Don't worry, butler, I'll pay for you,
mate. I'm so glad to see the back of

I feel so sad.

Yeah, so do I. I'm afraid he's going to
miss his train.
