Used all my options, worked off my dues.

Played all the cards, now there's
nothing to lose.

Don't want tomorrow to be like today.

That's why I'm breaking away.

Not trying to run, not trying to hide.

What can I win if I'm losing my pride?

Won't let tomorrow be like today.

Why I'm breaking away.

Breaking away.

Got to find a better way.

She loves me.

She loves me not.

Oh, no, she loves me again.

Are you all right, Dennis? Yeah, I'm
wonderful.

Yeah, you seem a bit down in the dust,
man.

Oh, full of the joys of spring, I am,
Odd. Oh, no, no, that's what you say,

but I can see different, man.

I mean, I can tell, look where they are
laying them bricks. I mean, you're not a

happy man, Dennis, man.

You're listless.

It's the same with me budgie back home.
Tommy, I mean, if he's not nutting seven

colours out that bell, well, now there's
something wrong.

Oh, aye, you know, Den, you can learn a
lot about human nature, you know, by

studying budgies.

Really? Yeah.

Right, er, suppose I was feeling a bit
down in the beak.

Yeah. What do you do for budgie that you
could do for me?

Huh?

Well, I mean, it varies, doesn't it? I
mean, er, you know, sometimes I'll give

him a nice bit. Cuttlefish to peck at.

Or we'll shift these mirror around the
cage a bit, you know, give them a bit of

change of season. That usually does the
trick. Well, that doesn't kind of work

with me.

No, no, I don't suppose so.

Yeah, is this an official strike or
what?

I'm just trying to cheer you all dead
up, my love. I don't need cheering up,

thank you very much, Oz.

And as for you and your budgie, about
the only thing we've got in common is

we're both sick of seeing your face
through the bars of our kids.

Now,

that's not a depressed punter. You
know...

What are you doing?

Vera, man. I know it's Vera, man. I'm
just trying to find out what's going on,

man.

What's the matter with you two, eh?

It's just us, man. Dennis is a bit
concerned about you, that's all.

Look, are you going back to England or
are you not, that's all? What's that got

to do with you?

Well, you're my mate, aren't you? I
mean, eh...

I just want to know what you're going to
do before I decide what I'm going to

do. I mean, I don't want to be stuck on
me jack in Germany working here if all

me mates have went home. I'm sure you're
really concerned about you.

You're not concerned about me at all.

Look, I'll tell you exactly what I told
Vera, right? I'll make my mind up at the

end of the week. And when I do, it's
what's best for me that matters, right?

for Vera or for Dagmar or for you or for
your flipping budgie.

For once in my life... I'm putting my
interests first, okay?

Well, could you let me know by Thursday?

Are

you

all right, boy?

Yeah, terrific. Why?

Oh, no, no, no reason.

I'm just intrigued to know why the
person who buys each bag is going to

with an inscribed skirt involved, that's
all.

It's not for Ria Barry, it's for Krista.
Oh, Krista!

So it's true then, is it? Yeah, yeah,
it's true. There's no need to sound so

triumphant about it. I'm not going to
hide anything, at least of all the six

foot piece of timber.

My, I say, Wayne, there is a highly
original love token, that is.

A plank.

Aye, aye, Boxer.

No heart -shaped token for Wayne's girl,
aye. Only the finest piece of skirting

board will survive.

Oh, well, I suppose there's one way of
starting an arm together.

You're taking the Euro on, son.

Oh, well, you've got to admit it, mate.

It must have been a bit strange coming
from you, mate.

I thought you were the woman leaving,
mate.

John. Jump them and leave them, right?
Now, that's the difference, Steve.

Instead of carving notches, I'm now
carving names, aren't I?

Hello.

Hello.

Oh, hello,

Trimble. We were so busy that we didn't
see you come in for a minute.

Could you stop working for a moment,
please?

Oh, yes, please.

Thank you.

Now, I have to talk to all the British
workers about the new labor regulations.

So, could you and your colleagues come
to my office at one quarter of an hour

before the lunch break, please?

Well, gentlemen, as you probably know,
there have been one or two changes in

federal government's attitude to Gustav
Biden, the visiting worker.

This is because of increasing
unemployment here in West Germany.

Oh, yes, we have it too.

Our brand is bigger than yours.

So, we have had to look at ways of
keeping more jobs for our own people.

Up until now, you have worked here
without paying tax or insurance.

And that has been very convenient for
all of us, yeah?

But from next Monday, if you wish to
stay and work here in Germany, you

will have to apply for official
registration and be issued with a

Yeah, does that mean we've got to give
up our British nationality? Because I'm

buggered if I'm becoming a German.

No, no, no, you do not understand.

As members of the EEC, you have the
right to work here, but from now, you

accept your financial obligations to the
German state.

Well, can we not just grasp here and
then send what tax home?

Don't be ridiculous, though. I'm not
being ridiculous.

I just think it's a bit strong with we
give Germany all our skill and labour

now it's trying to issue us with dog
licenses and take what little pittance

money we earn off us.

Just ignore him, Herr Grunwald.

So, if you could let me know as soon as
possible if you wish to stay or not, we

can get on with the paperwork.

I can let you know straight away, Herr
Grunwald. I'm going back to England.

Me too, Herr Grunwald.

Family calls.

I shall be sorry to see both of you go.

Anyone else?

Personally, I'm not quite sure yet, Herr
Grunwald.

No, me neither.

And what about you, Mr Paddle?

I haven't decided yet, Herr Grumwald.

Well, it looks as if no one will be
staying here.

I wouldn't be too sure about that, Herr
Grumwald.

Well, this is a right puzzle, this one.

I don't want to go back home, but I
don't really want to stop here working

Germany, especially if I'm just going to
be working with Germans.

I thought she had a wife and her kids, I
was.

That's why he doesn't want to go back.

True, true.

What about you, Moxie? You'll stop your
others, won't you?

Much as I like her, I can't say I relish
the idea of paying tax -like.

I mean, when you think about the squalid
lifestyle that we lead at the moment,

it's going to be even worse with less
money.

Sounds like another boy blighty -bound
to me.

No way, Bob.

There's even less chance of that
happening.

How's that like?

Huh? Look at her record, haven't I?

Oh, right. Yeah, I was in the nick for
two years before I come out here.

Yeah? This was supposed to be me fresh
start in life.

Oh, what did you get locked up for?

Huh?

Arson. Arson? Yeah, I know. I didn't
want to tell you blokes, you know.

Arson? She got worried, like, you know,
about being in the same hut as me, like.

But it don't matter now, though.

Arson, huh?

And you don't even smoke.

How did that come about, Marks?

I was working on this building site, you
know, back in Liverpool.

Back to the site manager.

Had it in for us, like kept talking my
wages for no reason.

Well, one day, you know, I just lost my
rag.

I set fire to his hut.

What, was he still in it?

Not for long, no.

So there you go.

Record for arson.

Dog City address.

Where? Kirby.

I reckon my chances on Merseyside are
even worse than Everton.

I see what you mean.

Well, stop on, Moxie. That's the only
thing you can do, really.

Yeah, I know, Oz, but, you know, once
they get me named down on their forms

their files, it'll only be a matter of
time before they find out about me, Pat.

Hey, Dennis, you'll never guess what.

Moxie's an arsonist. Schnaps.

Just leave the button.

I'd forgotten all about it till he
asked.

Yeah? Well, he was lucky I reminded you
then, wasn't it, eh?

I mean, imagine what the scene would
have been this coming Saturday, right?

You and Brenda locked passionately on
the sofa together over a nice cup of

cocoa, eh?

Unable to control your ardour any
longer, you slip off your pyjama jacket

well, look, Brenda's cries wake up half
a bloody Tyneside, eh?

You've got five days to work out a good
story, haven't you?

Whatever I tell her, she's not going to
believe it, though, is she?

Have you finished yet?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just wanted to get a
rough idea, you know.

What is it you're making, anyway?

Sort of a commemorative plaque, I
suppose, you know.

Two arts intertwined forever.

Wayne and Christa.

A bit like Marks and Sparks or Neville
and Lottie.

Look, instead of making tactless jokes,
Wayne, why can't you use your rancid

imagination to help me find an
explanation for this?

Yeah, you're right.

Let me think.

Oh, yeah, what about this? What about it
was your first night out here, right?

You underestimated the strength of
German beer, got pissed out your brains,

up in the morning buff with that on your
arm.

That's no good. That's the truth.

Oh,

thanks a bunch, Wayne.

Any time, soldier.

Not really, Barry, thank you. Oh, no,
no, no. Now you're going home, don't

forget about your little, you know, your
little T -I -double -T -double -R, will

you? Barry, get S -T -U -double -F -E
-D, will you?

Show me.

Ah, don't take offence, Barry.

There's a lot of chickens going home to
roost this week.

Pressure's on, mate.

See, we've been in our own private
cocoon here for six months.

Now real life's howling at the door
again.

You know something, Ray?

There's a real serenity and wisdom about
you these days, you know.

Yeah, well, it's the power of love,
isn't it, Barry?

Yeah, I suppose it is, yeah.

What's it feel like?

Love, I mean, being in love.

Well, I don't really sparkle in that
department, see, between you and me.

I ain't any other adjacent one either.

I'm the sort of bloke who looks at the
three -year expiry dates with a packet

johnnies and wonder if I ever use them
in time.

Hey, come on.

Your time will come, mate.

And you'll know when it hits you, I tell
you.

Yeah.

What's it feel like?

What's it feel like?

Love is... Love is sitting in a hut on a
German building site, carving two names

into a plank of wood without feeling a
prat about it.

Now, I know I've been pretty viperish in
the past with your concern, Wayne, but

that's... That was almost poetry.

Hold the book. I contributed to a German
hut to be a charity fund.

And instead of one of them little flags
from me lapel, they put this tattoo on

me arm. Oh, very ingenious. Even Brenda
would see through that very deal, man.

I thought Dennis could come up with
something.

Not a chance.

What's got into him?

I don't know, but he's certainly taken
hold.

I'll have a word with him. He's talking
to me. Just stop right where you are,

Oz. Come on, Den, we're your mates.

Whatever it is, share it with us.

Trouble shared's a trouble halved, eh?

No, that was one of Vera's favourite
scenes, that was.

Come on, then.

Snap out of it, man. Snap out of it.
Will you listen to this, lad, eh?

Have you lot any idea what it's like
being kicked out of a marriage?

It's like being asked to take down all
those walls we've been building, brick

brick, with your bare hands.

Imagine what that feels like, eh?

And then imagine what it would be like
if they came along and said, right, now

put them all back up again.

We can help you then.

Thanks for the offer, bummer, but you
can't. I'll help you with your problems.

Doesn't work the other way around.

That's how it is.

Do all of you. Just do me the only
favour you can, will you?

Just leave me alone.

Na, meine Damen, hättet ihr Lust, was zu
trinken heute Abend?

Nein, danke, wir haben schon was anderes
vor.

Aber komm schon, sie werden euch nicht
beißen.

Nein, wirklich nicht.

Ja, ja, so beschäftigt mit den
verdammten Engländern.

You've got to see how desperate I am
when I'm asking you, man. That's

to be flattery, is it, Oz? Supposed to
melt my heart, is it? Well, I'm sorry,

it's not going to.

Hey, dear, you're wasting your time, you
know. You won't get him to change his

mind. But what about you, Moxie? Do you
not fancy... I'm sorry, Oz, but I've got

a face for whether I don't have an
extradition treaty with Britain.

Yeah, well, try the Antarctic, eh? Why
don't you? Somebody that lights fires

will be popular up there.

Bloody Germans. Why couldn't I just
leave well alone, eh?

Morning, ladies.

Hello, Wayne.

Good morning, Wayne.

Erm... I bought you a little something.

Oh.

Beautiful. You made it yourself, yeah?
Yeah, well, you know, my union card, it

says join it, but I'm a sculptor,
really.

Dagmar, look, Weynard made me a
paperweight.

Very nice.

No, no, no, it's not a paperweight.

It's a plaque, isn't it?

You know, you're supposed to put it on
the wall, like, above your bed, like.

What?

Cool. Very nice there.

It's all right then, isn't it?

I want to fill in one of those forms as
well, if you'd give us any.

Which forms?

The work permits, you know.

What do you call them?

Your staying?

Well, about the only one who is by the
look of it, eh?

Of course, a couple of lads haven't
quite made their minds up yet, you know.

Erm... You want me to, um, to write for
you, yeah?

Yeah, please, if you would, love. My
German never got much past Donner and

Blitzen.

OK.

Please, your full name.

Look, you do know why I'm doing this,
don't you?

I think I can guess.

Right.

Wayne Winston Norris.

Well, I still say we're being tricked
like shit.

I mean, Germany takes us on as cheap
labour when their going's good, right?

then what happens?

It cuts up a bit rough for them and
wallop. They want to dump us overboard,

don't they? And it's just so their dole
figures look all right.

We're not being dumped, Oz. Yeah.

We're being invited to stop them if we
pay their tax or so.

If we don't, they'll let one of their
lads have our jobs. It's quite fair

enough. Fair?

The words fair and German don't go
together in my book, pal.

I've heard you going on about English
since back home, man, Oz.

Mourning away about the Irish coming
over and taking jobs off our lads and

paying the tax.

It's exactly the same here.

Only over here we're the Irish and the
Germans are the English.

Well, they're right about one thing,
Niddle.

The English have become the Irish of
Europe.

No, he's wrong there, Oz. What?

The Turks are the Irish of Europe.

How can the Turks be the Irish of Europe
when Turkey's not even in Europe, you

duck egg? It's in Asia, man.

All right.

So how come they think of the Eurovision
Song Contest, then?

Well, so do Israel, don't they? They're
even farther out of Europe than Turkey.

If you ask me, I think they're more like
the gypsies of Europe.

Oh,

trapping the land in search of
employment. Yes, except that the gypo

gruff, didn't he?

Ah, you are ridiculous, Oz.

I'm ridiculous, get this? I'm
ridiculous.

You're the one stood there with his arm
stuck out, hoping the sun will make his

tattoo go away.

That's very interesting, this is.

Yeah, it could have filled me.

What is?

This, this dissension in the lower
ranks.

Oh, it's a sure sign that we're missing
our tribal lady, you know.

I read about it in the Naked Ape.

There's this group of chimpanzees,
right?

And I was suddenly deprived of their
elder stage chimp, with the result that

rest of them took part in several days
of fierce squabbling, right?

That's what's happening here.

We may not know it, but this is a
primitive leadership struggle to see who

succeeds Dennis.

Marty, don't take this the wrong way,
will you? But why don't you go and boil

your head?

I think I was just made the first bit
for the job.

Two o 'clock.

Work on your heads, everybody.

There's no hurry.

Oh, hey, what a day.

Shut up.

All right, here I go.

When's it on, then, Art?

Yeah. Got to put it up with you, haven't
I?

Oh, cheers. It's his charm that knocks
me out, you know.

How's a cup of tea, now?

You know what, Ned?

He's getting really bossy these days,
isn't he?

Hey, I reckon it's Barry's Planet of the
Apes theory's gone to his head. Yeah.

Oh, wait, man, just pour the tea. Yeah,
of course, the advantage of being a

chippy is you don't have to work in the
hot sun all day, you know.

I'll be embodied with all this pullover,
you know. He's got them convicts for

missing Denison's leadership.

Yeah, yeah, look, come on, what are we
going to do about him, eh?

I mean, we've all lent on him enough for
the past six months. It's time we gave

the old poor sod an end.

Oh, that's just the trouble, though.
He'll not let her.

Maybe he doesn't pride her.

Maybe he just don't trust her.

Just to avoid any more embarrassing
scenes, I, uh, I shan't be going over

club tonight.

I'm going down to the town to get the
legless.

So you lot will be safe where you are.

I reckon instead of examining our
behaviour, Professor bloody Barry should

a look at him.

Never seen a man so withdrawn.

He's not a nice sort of mate.

Why?

Maybe you should pool your knowledge of
budgies with Barry's knowledge of

chimps. Between you, you might come up
with a solution.

There's no need for that then. I'm just
trying to... Oh, isn't there?

Seems to me you couldn't care less about
Dennis.

I could, I could.

All right,

all right, I'll prove it then.

Same thing as you, by the looks of it,
getting pissed.

Hey, you, get back.

Come on. Get back.

Join me, why don't you?

Thanks.

I thought you were out in the country
avoiding the law.

I'm not letting any foxy German cop keep
me out of town, you know.

Thought I'd just lie low for a couple of
days, avoid the construction sites,

like, you know, might be a marked man,
like.

That's a reasonable assumption in the
circumstances.

So what you doing for doubts, Marks,
didn't you?

Couldn't have got much for our
dartboard.

Ah, I'm sorry about that.

Hey, I left the darts though, didn't I?

Oh, you're stupid.

I'll keep the tray here with you.

I just, you know, put it on the outside.

I don't understand.

Keep what this should do us for a while
then, eh?

Bloody hell, McGowan.

Another one?

Good thing a drink with you, McGowan,
eh?

You get good service.

So what are you actually doing?

I'm working as a bouncer, you know, at
this gay nightclub.

Any of them etiquettes get out of order.

You know, I have to... Drag them.

Yeah, that's right, drag them down the
stairs, not kick them into the alley.

Is it voluntary work like, eh? 20 quid a
night, like, and all I can drink.

It must cost nearly 100 pound a night
then, eh?

Listen, Charlie, I'm only drinking with
you because you're the bread. Don't take

the pit, OK? Otherwise they treat you
just the same as they do the customers.

Oh, they've got customers in here, do
they? I'm surprised you haven't broken

them all off.

Right, as soon as I finish this lot, I'm
going to give you a thump. Ah, thump,

thump, thump away. Why do I care? I'm
going.

You're tired of life. Ah, you could say
that.

Sounds like a couple of addicts asking
for trouble if you ask

me. Just get out of this, McGone. I'll
handle it.

Go home with your wife.

Maybe I'll have Dagmar.

Sounds like he's provoking you. Do you
want me to sort him out for you? You

stay out of this, McClurey. I'll handle
it.

You're not hard enough for this, Jody.
Oh, no.

and be all right?

Aye. Aye, they've just sedated him.

Had to give him a blood transfusion.

Over two litres.

It's a good job that ambulance got there
so quick.

What happened, for God's sake?

Oh, there was a bit of a rumble in this
vehicle with some German lads.

McGowan turned up.

Oh, he's got his arm slashed with a beer
glass.

McGowan, I might have known. That man
could start a fight in an empty house.

And I'll get him far behind.

Oh, you've got it wrong, Neville.

It's my fault.

I started out with Trump.

You did?

Aye.

Doctor,

this is one of Mr Osborne's colleagues,
Neville Hope.

Hello. How do you do, Doctor?

Your friend is a very lucky man.

Aye, I know.

We're very grateful for what you've
done.

Don't thank me for doing my job, Mr
Hope.

Guten Abend.

Alles gut? Alles gut.

I just wish you men could settle
arguments without resorting to violence.

That isn't typical, Doctor.

I see a lot of people injured in stupid,
drunken fights about football or women.

Yeah.

Is he going to be all right, then?

Oh, yes.

He's lost a lot of blood, but that's
been replaced.

And I've given him a sedative to help
him rest.

And fortunately, the wound isn't too
large.

He'll have a scar, of course.

But if he wishes, that can be put right.

Put right?

Yes.

Cosmetic surgery, skin graft, whatever.

I hope you don't mind me asking, Doctor,
but while you're here, is there

anything I can do about this?

Look, Neville, I just don't think this
is the right place at the time. What

would you mind, Dennis?

And I've got to do something about it.

Who is Lottie?

I don't know.

But it's not the wife.

That's just the trouble.

So, this is an unwanted souvenir of your
time in Germany.

Very much unwanted.

I've already lied to the wife once about
it.

I bandaged it up and told her it was an
injury.

Well, I can't keep doing that all my
life, can I?

Oh, I'm sure he'll be all right. Yeah,
strong as the knocks. Yeah, I mean, if

anything was really bad, we'd have heard
about it already, wouldn't we?

Yeah, I know, but, you know, all the
same, though, it just seems a bit

incongruous, like, you know, us being in
hospital, you know, beaten up.

All right, Nev's back.

Wait, what's the word then, Nev?

Couldn't do anything.

Oh, God.

Unbelievable.

What? No, for me tattoo, not for us.

No, us, it's fate.

Very comfortable out of danger.

Believe that, Nev.

You had us all going there. Yeah, right,
right. And who wants to be back to your

poxing, napping tattoo, Nev? I'm sorry.

I was just a bit preoccupied.

Yeah, well, you know, what happened,
Leith?

Well, this lady doctor said I should
stop being so pathetic and just tell

straight. The whole relationship was
sound, you understand?

Neville, Neville, how about if we pulled
your arm off some? Would that solve the

problem, eh? As odds, for Christ's sake.

Well, it seems you've followed Dan down
to the beer killer.

Kind of garden him like.

Anyway, there was a bit I grew, and he
got his arms flat with a glass.

All right, give me the beer, please.

Funny thing was, Dennis said it was his
fault, not others, that he started the

rook. Yeah,

it's true, bummer.

Because of me, Oz was nearly killed.

I don't care.

I've acted like the right prick.

You know, these last few days, and,
uh... wallowing in me own problems and

shooting all you lads out and that, and,
uh... Well, I'll apologise to Oz when

he's feeling better, like, but in the
meantime, I've got a lot of apologies to

make, and you lads will do for a start,
like... I'm sorry.

Come on, you bad -tempered old bastard.

Buy us all a drink.

Good morning.

I'm sorry to hear about us.

Yeah, yeah, me too.

Look, can I see you this evening? I
think we should have a chat.

Yes, I know.

Well, this is hardly the time of place,
is it?

All right.

Come to the flat at seven?

Well, won't your mother be there?

I can always go out on a train, can't I?

All right, great.

Seven o 'clock, OK?

Look, I've got dust because we're a bit
sore without those.

See you later.

Oh, yeah.

So I was listening, eh?

Playing 349.

Thought you were going to level with
Brenda.

I am, I am. Oh, yeah.

Just wanted to do it in my own time.

Don't want her to blame me for
homecoming, do I?

Hello. Anyone expecting a telegram?

Oh, don't give me a hand, anybody, will
you? No, no, it's all right. I'll just

give it a ruck to myself, that's all.

What's the score then, Barry?

Indoor motor.

Oh,

Faithfully is going to get me to Jeddah,
isn't she?

I think I'd better give her a complete
service before I set off.

Well, you're not riding that all the way
to Saudi Arabia.

No, no, I thought I might run alongside
it, you know.

Here, hold on, Barry.

This is all a bit previous, innit? I
mean, it's all right for you lot. You

all go your separate ways at the
weekend, right?

But this is still my home.

I know it's the pits, but I don't want
it turned into the pits.

Do you know what I mean?

Don't worry, I'll be tidy.

I used to be able to build a whole
Meccano set to a tea tray, you know,

was a kid without losing one single
piece.

Yeah?

If the match is one not all boats, drive
off this trice, Dan.

It's on your bike.

Oh, hello, Dan. Nice to see you, mate.

How are you doing, killer?

I'm all right, you know. I'm just a bit
bored with this German hospital radio.

It just sounds like interference and
splunking, conting, splunking. Aye,

I've brought you a little something.

What, floors?

No, man, look. Look at that, man.

Oh. Yeah?

That'd have been a... A idea.

Had a bit of a problem getting it in
with that lady doctor, you know. I think

she's got a bit of a down on the drink,
like.

So, after what happened last night...
Yeah?

Speaking about which, what exactly did
happen last night?

Well, er... How much do you remember?

Er, well, let's see. I remember that
German with a glass.

Aye. Bastard.

And I remember the ambulance.

Yeah.

And that's it, really, the rest of the
blue.

I woke up in here this morning, I
thought I'd painted the hut.

Ah, you see, you passed out in the
ambulance.

Loss of blood, see?

Hey, you're a lucky lad, you know.

Lucky? Me?

If I'd hit score drawers up, they'd
probably lose me bloody coupons.

You know what this is going to mean?
I've lost me money from work.

I'm going to get a whacking great
hospital bill when I get out. Oh, look,

don't worry about that, right? I'll take
care of all that in the circumstances.

That's the least I can do, man.

Oh, bollocks. No, I'm not getting at you
then. I mean, you would have done the

same for me, wouldn't you? I mean,
that's what mates are for, aren't they?

mean, money doesn't come into it, mate.

Well, one good thing did come up last
night, apart from me getting shaken up,

like.

What's that?

My going's back behind bars.

Oh. Aye.

He was dismembering those two Erics when
the police got there, so they called it

in for the whole incident.

You and me's just down as innocent
bystanders.

Oh, well, er...

Well, in that case, I want a little sort
of... Go on, open it. I'm choking. What

a pain. Ah, good lad. You'll do us.

All right.

Not bad for a bloke who's just had a
blood transfusion, eh?

We thought there was blood transfusion.
Well, I might not have to give you

nearly four pence if... Are you trying
to tell me? There's four pints of German

blood swelling about inside of me. Well,
I'm only surmising it was... Oh, man,

you know what this means, don't you?

I'm half bloody German now, man.
Probably got a special English tank,

aside for emergencies, you know. Ah,
bollocks. All right, us? How are you

feeling, mate?

Bloody suicidal at the moment, sure.

Neville, I thought you were under strict
instructions to cover that up.

Cover water.

Look, it's no good playing dumb now, my
Neville. He's noticed the plaster.

You see, according to medical ethics,
blood donors are supposed to remain

anonymous. But, I mean, there's no
point.

Now, I mean, you might have worn a
smaller plaster, Neville. What do you

Neville? Aye, it was Neville. It was
Neville. Neville, if you won't tell us

will, I'm proud of you, man. I'm proud
of you.

Neville gave you four pints of his
blood, man. Didn't you, Nev? Didn't you,

Aye.

I did. Oh, well.

Well, what a relief. I mean, well, how
can I ever thank you, Nev, for what

you've done?

It's all right. There was nothing.

Nothing? Nothing, nothing?

I've always said you were a good lad,
Nev.

Hey, you know what this means, don't
you? Me and you's blood brothers now.

Supposed to do it, aye. Aye, well, I'll
give you a blood brother of the English

people, Nev.

Thanks, poor kid. Poor kid. Well, look,
I've got to get off. I've got to go and

see young Dad, my poor kid. Oh, what,
you made your decision, then? Well, I

have, Oz, yeah, but I'd rather tell her
first, you know, if you don't mind.

What? Cool.

Cool, then. I understand. And listen, I
can make my decision without having to

lean on you, so don't think you'll be
holding to me at all, OK?

Oh, thanks. Thanks a lot, mate. Right.

I'll see you back at the hut, Dennis.
Are you OK? So long, Oz. So long. Thanks

for the flowers. Look, if he ever finds
out we are dead... Right.

I don't believe it.

What?

It's worth me and you get by.

And know this, it's a saying, isn't it?

Well, I've got to go home, you realise
that? That's what it means, I've got to

go home.

Look, man.

Oh, yeah, there's no doubt about that.

Mind you, we've got a bridge over the
Tyne, you know, that's just like that.

Well, not exactly like that, but
beautiful in its own sort of way, you

You sound as if you were homesick.

You?

What is it going to be?

Ryan? At the time?

Well, I'll tell you, Bonnie, the last
few days have been amongst the worst in

life. I mean, I know there hasn't been a
picnic for you either, but... Well, the

way I see things now is this.

If I, er... If I was Dennis the Bald,
I'd

be starting off a new life in a new
country with...

with the lovely ladies accompanying him.

But unfortunately, Dennis the Brave is
also a selfish sod, you know, who gets

his mates all carved up when he tries to
act big.

So he goes back to being Dennis the
Realistic.

And his role in life is to be there for
other people to lean on.

And if three of those people happen to
be his wife and his kids...

I mean to put realism before bravery
every time.

Would you have stayed if Vera hadn't
come last weekend?

Yeah, probably, yeah.

Don't you think that I need to lean on
you just as much as she does?

No. But why not? Because Vera's got the
kids, Dagmar. Don't you see? It's the

kids. They make the difference.

I mean, and because of the way I am, I
mean, I'll always get pulled into the

area of greatest need. Look, look, I'm
sorry, Dagmar. I really am.

How's it going?

Going to be for readying time.

Oh, thanks, sir, yeah.

I've just got one or two more
adjustments to make and I think I'd

her a complete change of oil.

Oh, well, you're going to the right
place for that, eh? What?

Oil.

Oil. Oil's sadly ripe, you're all. Yeah,
yeah, yeah.

Huh? Yeah, happy mood, isn't she?

Aye, well, the lack there, isn't it?
Brilliant, man.

Been over to admin for the pack of
boats, got the ticket for the Geordie

Oh, and I just rang Brenda and guess
what?

What? You're throwing a surprise party
for us when I get back.

Well, how can it be a surprise if you've
not had it already?

Oh, don't quibble there, Barry.

Where's all you other lads, then?

Having a club, getting the stores open
this afternoon.

What's happening this afternoon, Lee?

There's not been a ceremony either on
your beach.

Top and out ceremony?

But our bit's not finished yet.

Don't quibble, ain't it?

Not long now.

What? One of these might be the last
brick I lay in Germany.

Hey, don't start getting all
sentimental, never.

Put down, put down, put down.

Keen, ain't ya?

That's all right, mate.

Keen's the guy with the bevy. Hey, not
before five o 'clock, eh, lad? You don't

want to spoil our noise -exemptly work
record whilst you're changing the axe on

our last day, do we? Don't do it, Dad!

What are you doing up here, then? That's
different from me, isn't it? I'm a

skilled worker, mate. I'm not labourers
like you lot.

I work on miniature masterpieces of war,
and I do. It's got to be constrained by

mere units of time.

Oh, where's the time, by the way? It
must be getting pretty close.

About 30 seconds to go, I think.

I'll give you a countdown on my superbly
accurate digital watch, shall I?

Right.

15, 14...

To Oz. To Oz.

I don't believe it.

Can I drop in, lads?

I knew I had to go home on a rent.

I mean, can you imagine the difference
he's going to make?

Kevin Keegan at St. James. First
division football for us next season. I

Cheers. Cheers.

I bet you'd find a nurse out there,

right, that would turn plastic frank
into a stiffy thing.

You reckon?

Yeah, of course. That's why they call
them angels, innit?

Between you and me, Barry, I lost my
cherry to a nurse.

What is that? Some depraved, dirty,
hostile party, was it? No, no.

Oh, gee. No, no, no. When the children
won't watch out for the hospital, I'll

dab in my crinkles out at the time.

All casual labour, no names, no factual.

Yeah, it's half of the half of that one.
Well, you know, I don't think it's the

most tactful place in the world for an
ex -artist to work like, you know, on

field. Oh, do you know how much you'd
come in handy, man, burning all the

stubble? Oh, very good.

Look, I've got to get up. I'm going to
go and see young Dagmar.

You've not changed your mind, have you?

No, I just said we'd have a farewell
drink, you know.

See how beat a Jane like.

All right, then.

Take care. Hey, give a word for me, will
you?

Take the place of us.

Last 4 ,000 years, this, will you not?

I tell you,

there'll always be a place for skilled
labour.

Is that funny smell?

Good.

It's a bit smoky, isn't it?

No, it's definitely not socks, mate.

Stronger than socks, that is.

Stronger. It's petrol.

Hey!

Your bloody bike has been leaking petrol
all over my home, you idiot.

Commission. Look, look, I really think
we ought to get out of the way, you

Stop cracking her up.

But just again.

I'm glad we could say goodbye like this.

Yeah, yeah.

Well, it's better than jumping off
bridges and all that nonsense.

You were... You're going to be all
right?

I think so.

I have to be.

I got over relationships before, you
know.

Yeah.

You were right to me.

Yeah, of course, yeah, of course.

I'll have a lot of free time on me hands
when I'm back on the door.

I'll send you my new address when I
move. Yeah, yeah.

Well, getting out of here will be a
boom.

Have you told Vera yet?

No, no.

The arrangement was I'd give her a ring
tomorrow morning.

So we could spend one last night
together?

You're not expecting anybody, are you?
No.

I'm sorry to disturb you, but there's
been a bit of an accident.

Accident? What accident?

The hood's burnt down.

Oh, who's done that, Moxie? No, no, man.
Oh, don't tell me McGowan's brought out

of the nick. No, it was Barry's bike
caught fire. But, look, anyway, we've

everything. The money, the passport, the
ticket, the clothes.

Oh, bloody hell.

Well, Neville, you'd better come in.

You can't play the night.

Thanks, Dagmar.

There's a couple of the lads and all.

Hi, Dagmar. Hello, Dagmar. How's it
going? Hi, Dagmar.

Oh, this is how we do it, isn't it?

Working on the site from morning till
night.

That's living alright.

That's living alright.

Then a pint with the boys in a buffalo
noise.

That's living alright.

But you don't ask their names That's
living alright

No work, no money, no prospects.

Oh, I met a bloke in the bar before and
he reckons we'll be needing bricklayers

of all ways soon.

Oh, how was that?

Well, it was just a whisper, like, but
he had heard that they're going to

rebuild Hadrian's Wall.

Just to keep you in beer.
