Thank you.

Oh, God almighty.

Come on, girl.

We've got work to do.

Actually, I haven't missed it, have I?

No, I'll be about 15 minutes late,
Timmy. All right.

I hope there's a parcel for me on it.

If it's on it, you'll get it.

It's nice to know.

You can rely on British Railways and the
power of steam.

Aye. You're fully enough of it.

So, er, how are you and your pigeons
getting on?

Ach, got fed up last week.

Took them all out and wrung their necks.

Ah, wee.

You can you wring out a dishcloth.

Oh, here.

Could you tell that pal of yours that
the train will be a wee bit behind hand?

Who? Alec Ritchie. He's a neighbour of
yours, is he not? Aye.

Well, he's out there, waiting.

Corrie Begg.

Paddy's Market.

Well, never mind.

Here.

That was some party you and Jenny threw
last night.

Aye.

Aye, it was some party.

One every meal time.

And her father's been sending her money
all this time to support us.

She never even told me.

She had. They just made her send it
right down the post.

Damn right.

She's made a bloody fool out of me.

Well, you're halfway there already.

Look, Alec, it's none of my business,
but you've got a good woman there.

Wish to God I had a man the same.

If you're getting all het up, just give
your pride -stein a bit of a dandy. My

pride is all I've got. No, it bloody
isn't!

You've got a wife, a farm and
responsibilities.

It's about time you started facing up to
them.

So... Oh, by the way, the train's late.

Don Bartow, shall we get down to
business?

The sooner, the better.

Here.

That'll stick to your rib.

You know about the model lump, then?

Fuel for the boiler. We'll need every
bit of it.

We?

I'm coming along.

But the doctor said no undue exertion.

Exertion? I'll tell you what that is.

Being stuck in here like some old fogey,
that's exertion.

My life's out there, not inside four
walls. So to hell with doctors.

Well, have you taken your tablet at
least?

I took the little box.

Come on.

See? Told you you could always rely on
British Railways.

That's the agreed sum, all right. Six
months in advance.

I'm sure now, Mr. Forbes.

I've counted it twice, Humberto.

I saw that.

Ah, well, better safe than sorry.

So, the place is yours.

Bravo. As long as you keep up with the
rent.

Ah.

That's what I want.

You can have a great big business going
here. No.

A great big business.

How are you going to find the time,
anyhow?

Hmm?

Being here and still working for Jimmy.

You're going to be a busy boy, eh?

I'll manage. Don't you worry.

Grazie.

It's alright.

Coast's clear.

They

all

tap it hen.

She never lays where you expect her to.

Yes, I know that.

Just a mock.

It's supposed to be bad luck.

You better have it, then.

Jennifer, I'm sorry, all right?

You said some very cruel things, Alex. I
know.

I know.

It was the drink.

No, it was more than that.

Aye.

You're right.

was more than that.

Listen, can we go outside?

There's a hell of a stink in here.

Still not working, eh?

I'll ask Umberto to fix it.

I thought I might do it myself.

Well, you know.

Jenny.

Made a bloody fool of myself.

Yes, you certainly have. You had no
right to go behind my back, though. And

had no right to talk to me like that.
All right, OK.

I am truly sorry for what I said.

But... I had my reasons.

We've got a lot of sorting out to do.

I'm game if you are.

So. Salting air.

Is that a deal?

It's a deal.

Now then, a toast.

To Andrew.

God bless him.

To Andrew.

Do sit down.

We'll all be going down to the station
together, of course.

Oh, but are you sure?

I was going to sit in my own car.

Why?

Well, there mightn't be enough room.

On the way back, I mean.

With the luggage.

Oh, don't worry about the luggage, my
dear. No, no, no, no. We'll send Nippon

back for that later, if need be.

And take the rest of the day off, Flora.

That's not really necessary.

Well, of course it is.

Family come first, after all.

You and Andrew will have a lot to talk
about. I'd rather not if you don't mind.

I'm... I'm behind enough as it is.

There'll be plenty of time for Andrew
and I to talk.

For heaven's sake.

No, she's right, James.

There'll be plenty of time.

All the time in the world.

This one's yelled.

Aye, she's a lamb.

Do you not watch what you're doing?

It's not my fault.

Then whose is it?

She's a right wee diet loup of that one.
Well, whatever. She went from you, so

you can fetch her back.

Aye, all right.

Probably took one look at your facade
and ran for her life.

Do you want some cake with your tea?

No.

No, thanks.

Is that all settled, then?

Yes.

We'll get a loan from my father, a
proper loan. And we pay it back out of

profits? Whenever we can. No.

As soon as we can.

All right.

All right.

That wasn't very hard now, was it?

No.

I used to make pretty good scrambled
eggs with powdered milk in my mess tin.

Bullets flying overhead.

Sounds lovely.

Maybe I'll take it up again.

More dodging bullets?

No, no, a bit of cooking.

Well, I'll just shoot down one of these
pigs I see flying around and you can

roast it on Sunday.

Did you miss me?

Did get a little chilly.

You could have made up a hot water
bottle.

You've only warmed the one spot.

Yeah, I was out thinking you married me
for my good looks.

But no, just for my circulation.

Righto.

But you do love me, eh?

You want to watch that, boy?

Eh?

These coffin nails.

Smoke and rot your lungs away until your
insides are like a peat bog.

You'll be dead before your time. Oh,
that's right. Cheer me up.

What's that you've got there?

Pal of mine for college.

Graduated.

Having a party and I'm invited.

No point in you going. You didn't
qualify.

Aye, I know.

Left halfway.

I know. There's no need to rub it in.

Waste of money.

And time.

I realise that now.

Nothing there you can't learn here.

Well, there is.

Things are changing all the time.

Farming.

Like a science thing.

God, virtually every day there's
something new.

I'm missing it, aren't I?

Size, eh?

Oh, well, I dare say there's something
in it.

There's much more to farming than just
that.

Nature.

You have to understand her ways right
down to the heart.

See these hills?

I know every stick and stone of them.

Aye, nature.

It's a balance, Robert.

She gives and she takes.

You have to understand that first and
foremost before science or any other

thing.

You have to keep things in balance.

Didn't he know you were such a romantic?

There's nothing romantic about it.

I think I'll take a wee turn into the
village this afternoon.

I'm starting a business.

What kind of business?

A repair shop.

Things are always breaking.

I like thick skulls.

You'll never make a go of it.

Have a damn good try.

You're never going to be able to do that
and put in a day's work here, are you,

Nick?

No, I'm not.

No more ore in the north for you, eh?

Two grand for all that now, eh?

That's it, just quit.

Skedaddle, leave me high and dry.

That's the plan, is it?

Yeah, that's the plan. Listen, if it
hadn't been for me, you wouldn't have

any work of any kind.

You were just a washed -up prisoner of
war with nothing and nowhere to plant

yourself.

That's right, Phoebe.

You keep on telling me that.

Just a hired hand.

Well, hired hands, they come.

Then they go.

Then go.

And good riddance.

You're the boss.

I didn't think you could use this place
like a hotel either.

I don't intend to. I'm going to stay
there.

Total desertion.

I want you right either. Good at that.

Umberto.

Father.

Don't see me, Phoebe.

I don't know where I'll be.

At last. Come along, Constance. Come
along. We'll be late. You know how I

being late. Don't talk so, Jane.

Pension time.

Isn't there, Flora?

Well, there's enough.

Just about enough.

If Andrew's come back all the way from
Korea, the least we can do is to be on

time to meet him.

Nobody's forgotten anything, have they?

No.

You have got the ring, haven't you?

The what?

The way you're carrying on, I keep
thinking we're going to a wedding.

Yes, well, we're not.

Not yet, anyway.

At least one engine's working.

Well, try and keep it that way.

You just get back in the kitchen where
you belong.

Well, there's a face that we haven't
seen for a while.

I wonder how long she's going to be
staying this time.

Five minutes is too long for me.

Well, whatever harm she did, I'm sure it
was a long time ago.

Things change, don't they? She left her
wedded husband, and that doesn't change.

Sir James seems to have forgiven it.

Ah, no fool like an old fool.

Now, why would she come back, do you
think?

There's only one answer I can see, and
it sticks out a mile.

To feather her own nest.

Well, I'll look at many feathers out of
you bald brain -outs for sure.

That's not true, Major Mingus. I'm all
right now.

Behold, I'm here.

Couldn't say hello, Mother.

Andrew, my dear.

And I must say, you look very well
indeed.

Doesn't make answers.

Splendid shape.

It could have been a lot worse.

Except that I keep getting this crick in
my neck.

Hello there.

Hello, stranger.

Welcome home.

Oh, have you heard, Mr. Macrae?

Our Italian friend, Umberto, is going to
open a wee business in the village.

Ah, ice cream, no doubt.

It'll certainly put Femi's nose out of
joint.

Ah, well, there's big noses and there's
wee noses.

I'd like to transfer some money from my
account, please. Yes.

Where to, Mr. McRae?

Another account.

Uh -huh.

And whose might that be?

I haven't opened it yet.

Great to see you, sir.

Sir James.

Ladies. So, how are you?

Not too bad, for a change.

How about yourself, though?

I'm pretty well, thank you. Good. Those
wee bandits didn't do you too much

damage, then.

They done well did their best.

But it's a different war out there,
isn't it?

That's what we've been through.

Aye, I'll bet.

Well, I'd better be going. I'll see you
around, Alec. Give my best regards to

Mrs. Ritchie. I will.

Great to see you, sir.

You might have knocked.

I didn't need to knock.

I won the play.

You're making great progress with your
packing.

I don't have a good match.

I'd say you took quite a lot from here.

Nothing there was no tougher.

Ah, well.

I needed to make some savings anyway.

What with the rent ride coming up, the
one less piece of livestock around the

place, one less mouth to feed.

Mind you, girls in the village will be
licking their lips.

Huh?

A great big bull like you being let
loose in the field.

That'll set their hearts aflutter.

Look, Amy, I'm not going there to make
any flat on anything.

Oh, good.

I'm glad.

I'm going there to make a life for
myself. My own life.

Because you come first, don't you?

Number one.

Aye, I do.

Like everybody else.

That's how the world is.

That's how your world is, maybe.

Here. Go on.

It's for you.

Open it.

Sent away for a surprise for you.

Turned out I got the surprise.

Just hope it fits.

Thank you. It's very nice.

I didn't mention it, Umberto.

It's no much use to me anyway.

I'm not planning to have a man around
here.

Not for a while.

As I said, just hope it fits.

Well, nothing seems to have changed,
thank God.

No. Just the same.

Yes, dear. Just the same.

Wild hills of bonnie Scotland.

All covered over with those terribly
fascinating sheep.

It'll do me.

Okay.

Can you manage?

Yes, I think so.

How?

I'll arrange for some tea.

Can you manage?

Yes, no problem.

Oh, God.

There's got to be something to happen,
isn't there?

Any suggestions?

Levitation?

Ah, Andrew, um, when you have a moment,
could I have a word with you, please?

Yes, of course.

Oh, it's to Jane.

If you don't mind, I think I'll go back
to work now.

Will you?

Oh, well, just as you think, Flora.

You don't have to go yet.

Yes, I do.

It might be a family matter.

Your family. Not yet, I'm not.

Father!

Give me a hand.

My dear chap.

Hey.

What's going on?

I'm mending it.

Mending it? It's in more pieces than a
bloody jigsaw. Well, it's the only way

find out what's wrong.

Yes, but darling, that's my bike.

It's our bike.

You'll only wreck it. I'm going to mend
the bike, Alex. I bet you won't. I will.

I bet you a big bulk of chocolate you
won't.

All right.

It's a bet.

Not this time.

Wait a minute. What am I betting?

Oh, I'll think of something.

Anything to eat? I'm starving.

There's some cold meat in the kitchen.

Is that all?

No.

There's some carrots and potatoes and
cabbage.

Oh, well. Fair enough.

All you've got to do is put them in some
boiling water.

It's amazing what happens when you do
that.

Oh, well, you did offer.

I propose to go and live in America.

But I thought you didn't like Americans.

I don't particularly, but I shan't be
staying with any.

I'm going to take up residence with your
mother.

You mean live together?

Why not?

It's a big country, she tells me. Room
enough for two.

But what about the last time?

What about it?

Well, I... One can hardly say your
marriage was a roaring success. Come on.

Well, time has passed, Andrew.

We're both a bit wiser now, presumably.

You really think it'll work out?

I don't see why not.

Neither do I.

Carl!

How long have you been standing there?
Long enough.

Will I never be able to cure that
dreadful habit of yours of barging into

at the most inconvenient moments?

With a fair amount of style, surely.

Well, Andrew, what do you think?

Are we just two old fools trying to
relive the past?

What do you see in front of you?

I see two people whom I would dearly
wish to be happy

together.

Good.

Good, good.

Of course, you and Flora will have to
fix a date for your wedding.

And naturally, you will have to resign
your commission.

You can use the tractor and trailer if
you want.

No extra charge.

Just bring it back, eh?

I'll bring it back.

Scraps.

That's the money.

That's right.

I know how to spell.

You can?

You had better money.

You've earned it.

Part ways, at least.

You did not a bad job when I was laid
up.

Oh, not all that good, either.

Certainly. What disastrous.

Thanks. There might even be a wee bit
more of where that came from. It all

depends.

On what?

On what you want to do with all your
moaning and groaning earlier.

I was wondering, maybe you'll want to go
back to your college, eh?

You trying to get rid of me?

If I wanted that, I'd kick your backside
out the door right now.

OK.

Thanks very much, Grandfather.

Aye, well.

Have you been learning in my book?

No.

So, what are you going to do with your
windfall?

Don't know.

Might be an idea to go back and finish
the course.

Mm -hm.

Get yourself qualified so you can come
back here and plague me with your

scientific notions.

That's if you'll want to come back here.
Of course I will.

Well, it's your decision.

Just don't go spending it on gambling
and the women, that's all I ask.

Maybe I should go to this party.

All right.

Could make the other students find out
how it's all going.

It could be.

Just leave this here with me.

That's what I'll do.

Spy out the liar of land.

Party. I know what you'll be spying at.

Who's this?

A wee box.

And it's empty.

Where are the pills that were in it?

Down the sink.

Oh, I don't believe it!

Oh, it's true enough.

Look, how are you supposed to get better
if you don't take your pills?

I am better! My heart's as sound as a
bell.

What I need is fresh air and hard work,
not pills.

But it's her doctor's orders.

He can stick his orders where the monkey
stuck his nuts.

No more pills.

Alistair McCrae.

Well, no. That's what I like to hear.

There.

How's that?

I don't know, do I?

Oh, sort of.

What's the verdict?

Lord Parson muster. Oh, thank you very
much. Don't mention it.

Now, more importantly, how do I look?

Absolutely gorgeous.

Oh, my God. What?

I completely forgot.

What? Fetch me that parcel, please.

Go on, then. Open it.

What do you think?

Perfect.

You'll make a very lovely lady of the
house.

Remarkably well boiled potato, I must
say. That took a lot of effort.

Filled a hole anyway.

Well, I suppose we'd better start
getting this place into some kind of

Oh, tomorrow will be soon enough, won't
it?

All we really need to do is make the bed
up.

You mean you didn't? I slept in the
armchair.

Couldn't have been very comfy.

It wasn't.

Do you want a cup of tea, then?

I'll make it, don't worry.

All right, all right. You can do the
washing up.

Chuck in the mud. He sticks to the pole.

I sail on with the punt.

And he's left, marooned like Robinson
Crusoe, hanging on for dear life in the

middle of the river.

I don't remember that.

Oh, but you must, darling.

We had to be towed away by a rowing
boat.

Surely you remember that.

The little man kept looking at you and
shaking his head.

I shall be glad to get you out of the
country, Gonsles.

Perhaps we should have a double wedding.

Oh, what a good idea. No, no, no, no,
no.

I'm far too long in the tooth for that
sort of shenanigan. No, don't be so

silly, James.

You may be an old horse, but I'm sure
you can still raise some sort of gallop.

I hope you realise what sort of a mother
-in -law you're getting, Flora. Oh, I

realise, all right.

Mum, that's what I call a damn good
meal.

Yes, Mrs Mackenzie certainly pushed the
boat up.

Did us proud.

I hope you'll be keeping her on, Andrew.
Yes, certainly.

Especially after some of the muck we had
to eat in Korea.

Not exactly cordon bleu.

Not exactly anything.

I never want to see another bowl of rice
for as long as I live.

And the wind cuts through you like a
knife.

Made Persia feel like the Riviera.

No, we shan't be going there for a
holiday.

Oh, sounds just like a bed sit in
Oxford.

Were you at university with Sir James?

Heaven no. Far too stupid.

I was terribly arty, painting away in
some well -appointed garret.

I used to go there to see my brother. He
and James were bosom pals.

Boothing companions.

In fact, I remember one rag week being
woken at three o 'clock in the morning

a university student serenading me with
the Eton Boating song.

Accompanying himself on the... Ukulele?

Rubbish! I did nothing of the kind.

Anyway, it was a banjo.

I mean, honestly, Alec, when did you
last

give this bike a good start?

Not that long ago.

When Noah was doing up the art?

I mean, the valves and the filters?

Completely clogged.

It's not going to make a damn bit of
difference, you know.

Where are you going?

It's nearly dark. You can do it in the
morning, for God's sake.

Something attempted, something done, to
earn a night's repose.

It's a long fellow.

Well, I'm with you on the repose bit.

Banjo. My father playing a banjo.

It could have been words.

It could have been the pipe.

My God, yes. I can just see him
launching into the braids of Killy

would have gone down very well among the
dreaming spires.

And ye have been where I have been. Ye
would maybe talk.

Andrew's in fine voice tonight.

Perhaps a little too fine.

He needs to let it go, James.

Whatever poison it was that got into his
blood out there, he needs to let it out

of his system.

Remember when he was very small?

He used to bottle things up for just so
long, and then, bang, there was an

explosion.

Now, we don't want that, do we?

Certainly not.

We don't approve of explosions.

He's not like you, James.

Nor me, either.

Combination of the two.

Combination of the two.

What would I do without you?

Quite a lot, I should imagine.

You knew you were going to have to be a
nanny, did you?

I still can't believe you're really
here.

Oh, I'm here, all right.

You don't have to go, you know.

Now, I mean.

Andrew. Well?

Well, if that lot of you'd be to me with
a hole in your leg. A hole? Oh, sorry,

sorry.

Anyway, what if I met your father in his
dressing gown in the morning?

Or even your mother?

I can slip out early. No one will ever
know.

Oh, yes, they would. This house has
ears.

Good night, Andrew.

Sleep well.

Tired?

It's been quite a day.

Not counting the night before.

I thought we called a truce on that.

Sorry.

Where did you rampage off? A

truce, I say.

Yes, I know.

I know.

But...

Killed the cat.

Where?

Guess.

Well, I thought you might have gone to
the caravan.

No, no.

Further afield.

I spent the night at the railway
station.

I was going to run away from home.

Oh, Mark.

It's funny.

Sometimes things seem so important and
then... They just blow away.

The only thing that's important is that
we've got this place.

Yes.

There'll be time enough for other
things.

I'm game if you are.

Goodnight.

Night.

And you are dead lucky with that bike.

Changed your mind, eh?

Oh, sorry.

I'm sorry I should disappoint you.

I thought... Ah, thanks, thanks.

I won't be a minute.

I thought perhaps that I owed you an
explanation.

Of what? Your mother and I getting back
together.

A bit of a shock?

Ah, yes.

Yes, to me as well.

That sort of happened.

Well, things tend to do that sometimes.

You know, when you went off to Korea,
the first time in my life, I felt rather

isolated.

I'd lived alone a long time, but this
was different.

I saw a long road with no one on it.

The only person I've ever really been
able to talk to, or rather argue with,

was your mother.

So I asked her over.

The rest just sort of crept up on me.

Life has a habit of doing that. Does it?

Well, I wish it didn't.

But now that it has, I find that I'm not
entirely displeased.

Well, that's it.

Not much of an explanation, I'm afraid.

There's no need to explain.

Oh, I think there is.

Even if it's only to myself.

You must be dead beat.

I am.

Good night, Andrew.

Good night, Father.

Thanks for popping up.
