It's hard to know where to

begin

Thank you.

Yeah. You want a biscuit?

Yeah.

What then?

And who told you that?

Any clue in the pot room?

Dad? What?

I'll leave it out here then.

Today we're going to go on an adventure to a mystery place.

It's nice isn't it? It's like we're in a real jungle.

It's time to move on, Ruth.

We are. We could do with some more bin bags.

What happened?

He was panting, of course. A muddy bench.

And she fell in.

Silly Lily.

Come on, Tiz, it's not the end of the world.

We can wash her properly later.

We can even dry her hair if you like.

OK?

Come on, let's go see what all that noise is about.

This is a joke, right?

Nope.

What do you want to do that for?

We need the money, Roo. I could get a job and love school for two weeks

tomorrow. Don't be silly.

You've got enough on your plate, have you?

Who's going to make their breakfast then?

It's just until we get straight, Roo.

Well,

I hope they like Cocoa Pops.

and tell me if it's over

So what's the occasion?

We're at our first customer.

So what's her name?

Dorothy or something, I think.

Ex -ballet dancer.

You'll be able to teach her a few new steps, I think.

I'll go and get these.

Hello.

All right?

Sorry about this. You'll have to bear with me. It's my first day.

No problem.

Let go!

Let go!

Leave him, Tiz.

Hello, stranger.

Linda. Linda Davis?

Linda Davis?

I can't believe it.

I know. If you're wondering where the thin Linda's gone, I bet her.

Don't be daft.

You look great.

Oh, thanks. You're not worn too bad yourself.

Are you still out of kick?

Oh, yeah. I'll hop to this farm now.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, I know it.

Dad?

We've only got parking for half an hour.

My life, she's a spear cat.

Cheers.

Careful. Whoa!

I hope this isn't the conjugal bed.

You've got a nice view from here.

Most reliable one in the house.

Oi, you two, come on.

Just a little bit longer, please.

Really fun, have a go.

This is not much better.

But it'll have to do. I have adjudications all next week, and I can't

hassle of moving.

This room's not for rent.

I expect breakfast at eight o 'clock.

It's a work of art there, but I can't eat it.

Eggs. Oh!

I would like a little muesli.

Croissant. And cheese.

Nobody likes muesli in this house.

Well, I do.

That's one, isn't it?

And I'll have my tea in a cup.

I don't mind builder's tea, but it must be a cup, not a mug.

present from my director on the first night of his death.

It's going to be a beautiful day.

She's moving my stuff.

It's not for long.

Tell her to put it back.

Did you say she could?

You did.

I could put it back when she goes. What's the problem?

It's just stuff.

In your road, a clear out will do you good.

You can't just bin things, you know.

We were fine as we were.

Hibby. What's this?

Nothing.

Will you

play

with me?

Not now.

In a minute then.

Maybe.

That always means no.

Is he in?

Yeah, go on in.

Hiya!

My dad's not in.

Oh, I know.

Well, can you give him this?

I don't know whether he'll be up for it, but I thought it might be a laugh.

If he doesn't stay up late, he has to get up early to smoke the cows and that.

Anyway, he doesn't like going out.

Doesn't sound like the Tommy I knew.

Any road, a night off might do him good.

Bit of fun.

I'll tell him when he gets in.

OK. All right then.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye. Bye.

Bye.

Thank you.

Hey! Hey, what are you doing?

Oh, you want a skateboard, do you? Can we get it then? Oi, get out of the way!

Come on!

Please just give it to me, it's mine.

Get out of the way, man!

You've got to give it to me! No!

No, I'm having it!

Ship it!

It's mine now!

Please give it back.

Come on.

Pack it in, Coop. Pack what in?

Pack it in, Coop. You're just messing about, man.

Give her back her ball. Yeah, whatever.

I don't want it anyway.

Well, if you look here, you'll have these wounds going right out of that.

You know what I mean?

You're a twat.

Yeah, yeah, whatever, mate.

If you want, I can fix it for you.

Let's see.

I can do it myself.

What's up?

I need to get some books from the Cobb Library for a project.

What project?

It's about the Blitz.

Should I store it for you?

Well, she's got some stories.

Can I go? I won't be long.

I don't see why not.

Thanks.

Well, you'll have to take Tiz, will you?

Are you going to the library?

It's shut.

What time did it shut?

Ages ago.

How do you know it's shut?

I saw it on the news.

When? Will you just be quiet about the library?

It's shut.

Are you the girl from the other night?

You looking for Luke?

I don't know, maybe.

Down by the harbour.

Okay, fine.

It's your boyfriend.

Don't be silly, it's just a known one.

Alright.

Do you want to sit?

Hey! Kudos for your money!

You get no money mate!

Wow,

that's amazing.

Yeah, pretty cool.

Did you manage to get your board fixed?

No, not at the time.

Do you think you could fix it for me?

Let me have a look.

Man, this is old school.

Catherine,

I thought you said you called your Rudy.

I can't fix it, okay?

I don't mind.

What words of mine will reach you now?

There's words I never said, should have said, and evermore will linger in my

head. And that is... By Rudy Waller.

Did you write that?

Can't remember.

Anyway, we need to go. Come on, Ted.

Do you want to come out tomorrow?

For, like, Bernie's birthday.

How would I become a ballerina? A ballerina?

Yes. A great ballerina?

Yes.

Well, you'd have to get yourself to a good dancing school.

You'll have to practice every day for hours and hours and hours.

And you'll be worked very, very, very hard.

Once in, you'll probably be with the corps de ballet. That's the dancers all

together. You may get a small bit part.

And then...

The big time is when you become the soloist. All the time you have to have

lovely feel and a feeling for the music as well.

And then, of course, you have the lovely male dancers with all their strength.

You keep on working and you have to love it. And this takes a long, long time.

And you have to be dedicated.

It is your life.

So is that what you want for yourself?

I'll think about it. You'll think about it. I think that's a good idea that you

think about it.

Your mama, did you call her mama?

Mommy? Yeah, mommy. You called her mommy, right.

What happened to her?

Was she poorly?

Well, she had a little heart attack.

Poor Tizzy.

Just remember, somewhere out there is Mummy.

She's up there amongst the stars.

You look at those stars.

You'll see her up there.

Yes? Yeah.

Yes. And you miss her.

Yeah. Rudy doesn't really like talking about her.

She's a teenager.

They go like that.

Hey.

You live here? Yeah, just round the corner in my nan's shop.

It's very central, being in the middle of town.

I live on a farm.

You live on a farm? Yeah. A real farm? Yeah.

With animals and stuff? Uh -huh. And wheat?

Not wheat.

Really? Uh -huh.

That's cool.

Wee! You alright, guys?

You alright, bro? Yeah, yeah. What do you say? Yeah, good, man. You?

Oh, yeah, we're alright.

I've got something for you, actually. What's that? Something my nan made.

Come on.

Let's go.

Oh, I'm excited now.

Yeah, my nan made them for you going away.

Oh, sweet.

Ba -ba -ba -ba -ba -ba -ba -ba -ba -ba.

Rotten. Oh.

Ah!

Over here!

You ready?

Yep, go on.

You go first.

1970 1970 1970 1970

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank

you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Bushes don't run the flight on a Sunday.

Oh shit.

Boney, I'll be back for you in a bit, you hear me? Alright mate, I'll see you

soon.

Good night. Good

night.

I like your jeans.

What? Your jeans.

I like them.

Thanks.

Thanks for the day.

No worries.

You want to come in?

I know

that

you could love me too, but

show me first, show me what to do.

But I have never known what must I do

to make you my very own.

Teach me, tiger, how to tease you.

You've been to the library again. Tiger, I want to squeeze you.

But teach me, tiger.

Earth is you.

Earth is you.

I found that in the

bin.

Come on, Rudy.

We're going to play a game.

So, uh... Tizzy tells me your name's Luke.

Yeah.

Do you live around here, Luke?

I live above my own shop in Coff.

Here you go.

Thank you. Thanks, Luke.

So what do you do with yourself, Luke?

Work in a warehouse.

Hang out with my mate.

Go skateboarding.

Go on the scooter.

You got a scooter, eh?

So, uh, how long have you been mates for Rue?

Not that long.

She's very precious.

Make sure you remember that.

It's lovely.

I had one of these for years.

Me and Kath.

We had a lot of laughs.

You mind if I sit?

Carry on.

That was bloody brilliant.

Dad wasn't giving you a hard time, was he?

Nah, he's cool.

That'll be me in about five minutes.

Part of my show's about to begin.

I'll see you soon, yeah?

Yeah, OK.

I was thinking, if you want, I can try and fix your board Saturday.

OK.

You got a phone?

Yeah, but I got no credit.

Give me your number and I'll text you.

Okay.

Coolio.

See you in a bit, yeah?

What do you reckon?

Eh?

I'm gonna have a dance with your dad.

You're full of sad losers, you know.

Oh.

Thanks very much.

Yeah, Rue.

Do you remember when you used to dance with my feet?

No. Of course you do.

Rue.

Why did the scarecrow win the Nobel Prize?

I don't know.

I think you do.

Come on.

What time are you coming back?

Don't wait up.

I'm biting my hair down.

Really? I'm getting cold.

What's happening?

Ow! Don't be a wuss. I'm not being a wuss.

Come on, it's a jumpsuit.

There we go.

Brush your teggies.

Tiz, come on. I'm just doing my socks.

You don't need socks in bed. What if my feet freeze? They won't. Now come on.

I'll count to three.

One.

Two.

Two and a half.

Tiz, bed now.

Tiz.

Just look at those dreary people.

Do you dance?

Well, you should, my dear.

It would sort out your slouchy posture.

I went completely mad.

Before I died.

It was my finest hour.

And I did it all for love.

He was besotted with me. I was as light as a feather.

And so beautiful.

I did it all for him.

It was so painful.

I would have loved her so much.

Her tiny little hands.

But life goes on.

Otherwise, we die.

It wasn't a bad night, was it? No, it was really good.

What was Graham like?

With his dancing.

I can't believe it.

Sobbing his trousers like that.

And his singing.

What was he doing?

He was absolutely hilarious.

He was.

He sued his arse.

Oh, my God.

It was good fun, wasn't it? Yeah, it was really good fun.

Next time, we'll go to Jumping Jacks and have a really good night.

Right then.

Jesus, Mo.

What are you sitting in the dark for?

What the hell have you done to your hair?

What the hell have you done to yours?

Perhaps I'd best leave you to it.

I'll see you out.

I'm going to need you to babysit again.

I'm going to take some flowers over to Linda.

I have an apology.

Would you mind watching the kids for a bit?

I was going to go get you some of that muesli you like.

And some croissants.

How long will you be?

Not long.

I only eat all buttered croissants.

Thanks.

21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29,

30. Come on, 30.

32, 33, 35,

36, 37, 30.

Welcome.

Very good job.

Thank you.

What's the scar?

Doesn't matter.

Sorry.

No, it's fine. It's nothing competitive.

What am I looking at?

I have the jaw of a goat.

What? Yeah, it's just the way I was born.

I don't think I've got a clue.

Give me your hand.

Okay.

I can't.

Sorry,

I couldn't resist.

Come meet my nan.

Nan, this is Rudy.

Hello, darling.

Hi.

Go and fetch me slippers for me, Lou, please.

I went tonight to the captain's head. Oh, my God, what a dump.

They had something called chicken tikka sandwich all curled up at the edges.

Disgusting, honestly.

Did my dad turn up?

Yes, like a bad penny.

Can you give me a hand with these, please? Because they're a bit tight.

Oh, thank you, sweetheart.

I mean, there's no excuse for bad cooking, is there, darling?

No.

You know that bloke from Yorkshire? He's got a lovely head of hair.

James Martin?

That's it, James Martin.

Do you know I'd love to go out with him and test out his buffet.

Oh dear.

Oh, James Martin.

Listen, you two young people, just talk and let me have a little dose. I'm

tired. I'm really tired.

Tizzy! Charlie!

Coming! Ready or not!

Charlie, I have some sweeties for you.

I'm not playing anymore.

May I help you, madame?

Why yes, I'll have these in a size six. A six?

Yes, six.

Devon.

I don't think... Well, not as Devon as mine.

Didn't you hear me call?

Now, fetch your brother.

You want to come with me?

Enough of your game, madam.

Bob, you had.

People are looking at him like, what are they doing?

Stop crying.

Have their hiding place.

I went on the wagon till I saw her sitting there.

The dim lights of the farm were flaming red hair.

She looked up and smiled in invitation to come in back

when the wheels fell off the wagon again.

I want my little girl, but we can't always have what we want, can we?

Charlie!

Charlie!

Charlie!

Charlie! Charlie!

Where's Rudy?

She's going to get me some boozy.

Take Tiz back and wait at the house.

Daddy! Go back with Dorothea.

Go, Rudy. It's your birthday.

But things are getting higher.

Charlie!

I'm very sorry. I didn't mean what I said.

It's okay.

Oh, my God.

That was disgusting.

She better come back soon.

I've got some firm words to say to her.

None. None.

None. None.

Rudy! Rudy!

Rudy!

Hey, you!

If you've lost your cat, put a notice on a tree. Don't wake everybody up.

God.

Why have I lost my cat?

Thank you.

We weren't doing anything, you know.

What the hell were you thinking?

Swing off like that.

Come on.

I don't know.

You know you're in charge of the kids when I'm working.

I'm really disappointed in you, Ernie.

For God's sake, Ruth, come on. We're going home.

But you don't want me there.

What are you on about?

I've been out all night looking for you. I'm sorry to have spoiled your night.

We ain't got time for this.

Do you even care anymore?

Are you trying to get away from us, maybe?

Come on, Ruth.

You're growing up.

What do you want from me?

You want me to read you bedtime stories?

Can't keep pretending your mum's not gone, Rue. Oh, no. Now I remember. You

a nice, brand new life.

I don't want a nice new life.

You don't fucking get it, do you?

I could never get back what I really want.

Never.

Hello my dear.

You've got hair a bit like Janice.

Who's Janice?

Hello, Janice.

Pleased to meet you.

Now,

if you need me, just give me a call.

Thanks. OK.

I really appreciate it.

You take care.

You too.

I'm thinking about going away.

After the funeral, like.

Where?

Ireland, maybe.

Then Portugal, Fibonacci.

Wow. Sounds nice.

Lucky old you.

Sorry.

Anyway, I've got stuff to do.

Yeah, same

Give me a fun.

Why? Give me a fun.

here anymore.

You coming back?

Who do you write with?

She said she can't fucking stand her hair anymore.

I remember a few years, years back, and I got myself in trouble in school.

And I had to go to Ireland.

And she said, I won't even tell. That's not secret.

That's how Ireland was great.

Good woman.

Thank you.

I bet there's some stock in that shop, you know. I bet it's worth some cash.

We should go down and clear it, eh?

You're actually coming to ask for money?

On the day of my nan's funeral? You must be mad.

Hey, hey, calm down. She's having a laugh. Calm down.

What? Oh, Joey, you've got some nerve. It's her funeral.

Don't let him talk to you like that. Don't let him talk to me like that? What

are you even here?

Did you even know my nan? Hey, don't ever go to a door like that.

You're taking the pictures. Get out. You've got no right. Get out!

Don't come to me again.

I'm through with you.

It's just not worth the effort.

No son of mine.

Come on, calm down.

You know, I keep thinking she's gonna walk through that door.

Silly.

This is really fucking hard.

I just can't wait to get away.

He's still got his fat helmet.

Skin.

Heat.

Hair.

In.

Touching feet over you.

And I.

From the world.

Though the world.

A rarity of my genuine smile

So breathe, breathe with me

And every hope on you I hope that you don't bleed with

me I'm afraid of the things

in my brain But we can stay

A little bit.

That was a lovely ice cream.

Go!

Woah!

You're a terrible driver!

You're rubbish at driving!

Are you okay?

Yeah, that was fine.

Yeah.

What's the matter?

Um, the board's gone over the cliff.

What?

I can't hold.

Shit.

Rudy. Rudy!

Rudy!

You know, you've never spoken about your mum.

Haven't I?

She was a good person.

And, I mean, I'm not just saying that because... She's...

gone.

It's just so weird at home. Everyone pretends that nothing's happened.

Oh, I do.

Do you reckon if you move on, you forget?

I'm so scared of forgetting.

Don't forget then.

My nan will be well pissed off if I forgot about her.

Your nan was so nice.

Yeah.

And it was a box of frogs.

Her words.

She was my rock.

What about you on them?

She had stuff.

I was too young to remember her.

Thing is, I didn't just run out on her store.

She ran out on me too.

You don't get skies like this in the city.

What?

I just remember one of my dad's crappy jokes.

Go on, then.

Okay, why did the scarecrow win the Nobel Prize?

I don't know. Why did the scarecrow win the Nobel Prize?

He was outstanding in his field.

It's so rubbish, but it's the only joke you know.

I'll remember that one.

I wanna get that, Luke.

I gotta sort things out with my dad.

I know.

How's the gate, John?

It's alright, thanks.

Doctor thinks I'm the man.

Comes back now and then.

What? I don't speak chocolate, I'm sorry.

It's hot.

Funny that.

He's probably having the time of his life right now.

You know, I can't imagine him as a lifeguard. I don't know why.

Really? He can barely swim.

Imagine Baywatch, but with bony instead.

I could write you letters.

Letters? Yeah, and, like, what's the word for it? Old -fashioned handwriting.

Yeah.

Bouncing pen. Quill.

Yeah, exactly. Those big feather things are quill.

It has been many weeks since.

Should be fun in Ireland.

Take my mind off everything.

God knows I need it.

Yeah.

What's Jack going to say when you get back?

You'll probably be relieved to see her. Maybe.

Dive in.

Your little runaway.

Will you do me a favour?

Let me attack the day I'm coming home.

What? Thank you.

And your words chased round and round in my head last

night.

Look at me now I'm quiet now

Hi. Hi.

Good morning.

Dorothea's gone.

She wore such an old boot.

Gave Tiz some fancy earrings.

Coat suits you.

Your mum would like to hear you wearing it.

I remember the day she got it.

I did this.

I thought she'd be mad at me, but she wasn't.

It's a happy face.

Maybe that's why.

Yeah.

Thank you.
