1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,400
(audience murmurs)

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:07,380
(footsteps approaching)

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:08,220
Hey.

4
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:09,060
You're late.

5
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:10,140
I'm consistent.

6
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,500
(audience applauds)

7
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:15,340
Hello, and welcome to this QandA.

8
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:16,940
I'm delighted to say that I'm joined

9
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:18,900
by one of our most talented, promising,

10
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,540
and soon-to-be-in-demand young
actresses, Emma Lytleton.

11
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,540
(audience applauds and cheers)

12
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:26,820
Emma, thank you for joining us,

13
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,180
and thank you for writing
that introduction.

14
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:30,140
(audience laughs)

15
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:31,860
My pleasure on both counts.

16
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:32,980
(Emma chuckles)

17
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:37,220
So, how do you feel
about your play opening?

18
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:38,580
Terrified.

19
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:40,020
Absolutely terrified.

20
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,900
This is the biggest thing
that I've ever done.

21
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,260
It is in fact the only remotely big thing

22
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,660
that I've ever done, so, yeah, not great.

23
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,140
Okay, and what were you in before this?

24
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:52,140
Unemployment.

25
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:53,580
(audience laughs)

26
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:55,780
Right, and what kept
you going through that?

27
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:56,660
Shame.

28
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:58,300
Yeah.

29
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,100
I think if you want to act,

30
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:01,820
you have to have this burning desire

31
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,780
deep inside to want to prove-

32
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:04,620
Prove your mother wrong.

33
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:05,540
Exactly!

34
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,640
(audience applauds)

35
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,200
(upbeat music)

36
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,480
(soft vocalising)

37
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,900
(water splashes)

38
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,380
Joey, come on!

39
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,740
(water splashes)

40
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,840
Yeah!

41
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,880
No!

42
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,360
Yeah! Joey!

43
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,000
(slow string music)

44
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,340
That went well.

45
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,620
Yeah, I just wish I had said something-

46
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:14,540
Interesting?

47
00:02:14,640 --> 00:02:15,580
Ideally, yeah.

48
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,420
(chuckles)

49
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:18,340
What are you doing now?

50
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,380
I'll probably get the bus
home and panic about the play.

51
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:21,700
(chuckles)

52
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:22,660
Right.

53
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:23,780
Whereabouts are you based?

54
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,620
South, do you know Telegraph Hill?

55
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:26,460
Yeah.

56
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:27,300
That's where I live.

57
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,140
Whereabouts?

58
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:29,020
You know, at the north side.

59
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:29,820
The rough end?

60
00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:31,260
Yeah.

61
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:32,100
Nice.

62
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,600
No, it really isn't, but...

63
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,180
So, er, I have a question.

64
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:40,420
You've asked me a few already.

65
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:41,460
I know, but I'm still hoping

66
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:42,740
that you might say something interesting.

67
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:43,740
Seems unlikely, doesn't it?

68
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,460
Yeah.

69
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:46,820
Who's Joey?

70
00:02:46,920 --> 00:02:50,660
(slow sombre music)

71
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:55,760
(water splashes) (laughter)

72
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,180
Sorry.

73
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:58,540
Sorry, I just saw it on your necklace

74
00:02:58,640 --> 00:02:59,380
and I thought I'd ask.

75
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,500
(phone buzzing)

76
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,600
Oh, erm, I have to go.

77
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,500
Giving up on me saying
something interesting?

78
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,600
Had to.

79
00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:13,900
I was gonna buy you a
drink to say thank you.

80
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,000
Right.

81
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,100
Er,

82
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,200
yeah, sorry.

83
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:21,940
Sorry, I, I do have to go.

84
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,280
Okay, well thanks anyway.

85
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,400
You were

86
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,820
funny.

87
00:03:30,920 --> 00:03:32,920
Yeah, so were you.

88
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:37,660
Actually, erm, I've changed my mind.

89
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:38,740
About me being funny?

90
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:39,940
About you buying me that drink.

91
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:40,860
Okay, great!

92
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,620
Let's go.

93
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,720
Yeah, why not?

94
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,040
(dramatic music)

95
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,800
(laughter)

96
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,780
(indistinct)

97
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,120
(laughter)

98
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,300
So, what do you write about?

99
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,060
I write a weekly column

100
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,700
that is supposed to be
funny, but rarely is.

101
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:25,980
So not proper journalism then?

102
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,080
No. God, no.

103
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,020
And you interview people?

104
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:32,580
Sometimes.

105
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,220
Anyone interesting?

106
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:35,540
Not recently.

107
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,880
(chuckles)

108
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,520
I'm this way.

109
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,980
I'm just across the park.

110
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:45,540
I'll see you next time then.

111
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,640
See you next time.

112
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,840
(soft dramatic music)

113
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,100
(birds chirping)

114
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,940
(water rolling and splashing)

115
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,820
(children laughing)

116
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,640
(water sloshing)

117
00:05:24,280 --> 00:05:27,040
(water sloshing)

118
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,260
Hi.

119
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,460
Hi.

120
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,560
That's my towel.

121
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,020
Wait, what?

122
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,120
You're using my towel.

123
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:45,540
I can see that.

124
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,580
I didn't know that when I picked it up.

125
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:48,460
That would be-

126
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,560
Weird.

127
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:56,860
(laughter)

128
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,300
I have no idea what to say next.

129
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,500
Me neither.

130
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:01,580
I'm Harry.

131
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,680
I'm Emma.

132
00:06:04,280 --> 00:06:05,220
Oh, there, hey!

133
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:06,020
Joey.

134
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:07,980
What are you doing here?

135
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:09,220
Oh, sorry, this is Harry.

136
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:10,700
He used to go out with Kate,

137
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,100
and Anna,

138
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:13,900
and Olivia for a while.

139
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,820
Not officially.

140
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,020
Okay.

141
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,460
How do you two?

142
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:19,780
Oh, Emma's my sister.

143
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,700
Yeah.

144
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,040
(laughter)

145
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,920
(phone buzzes)

146
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,220
(sniffles)

147
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:31,340
Hello?

148
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:32,180
Hi Emma.

149
00:06:32,280 --> 00:06:33,660
It's Ben.

150
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:34,980
(sniffles)

151
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:36,220
Hi.

152
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,220
Er,

153
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:39,660
is now a bad time?

154
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:40,740
No.

155
00:06:40,840 --> 00:06:43,180
Sorry. Just it sounded
like you were crying.

156
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:44,620
No, I am.

157
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:45,460
Erm,

158
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,180
(sniffles)

159
00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:49,900
I'm watching Say Yes to the Dress.

160
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:50,740
Ah.

161
00:06:50,840 --> 00:06:52,540
That's not good.

162
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:53,620
(laughs)

163
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,140
Yeah, so listen, erm,

164
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:57,900
the last time we saw each other,

165
00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:58,740
you said

166
00:06:58,840 --> 00:06:59,980
"See you next time,"

167
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:00,820
and,

168
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,540
yeah, I mean,

169
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:03,820
I mean this isn't very cool

170
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,060
or indeed professional,

171
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:05,980
but neither am I.

172
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,980
So yeah, I, I, I just wanted to say

173
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,660
for the avoidance of all doubt,

174
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,840
I would like there to be a next time.

175
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,880
So, so, yeah, erm,

176
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:21,660
I, I, I was just wondering

177
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:22,660
if you wanted to go for a drink.

178
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,420
I'm sorry, Ben, I have gotta go.

179
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,000
(phone beeps)

180
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,060
(sighs deeply)

181
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,160
(slow sombre music)

182
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,720
(children laughing and squealing)

183
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,760
(children laughing)

184
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,720
(footsteps)

185
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,440
Hi!

186
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:12,980
Hi!

187
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,100
Er, what are you doing here?

188
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:15,020
I saw you across the park,

189
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,200
and I thought I'd say hi.

190
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,220
I'm sorry about the
other day on the phone.

191
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:21,020
I didn't mean to be-

192
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,580
Daddy!

193
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:23,420
Have you got-

194
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:24,220
Hello, mate.

195
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:25,500
Daddy!

196
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:26,700
Any more?

197
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,800
Er. No.

198
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:31,060
Who's this?

199
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,560
Er, this is my friend Emma.

200
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,140
Would you like to meet her?

201
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,540
Okay, so Emma, this is Poppy,

202
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,640
and this is Jack.

203
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,340
No, we're not!

204
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:44,860
Okay, well who are you then?

205
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:45,940
He's Peter Pan.

206
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:47,340
I'm curly,

207
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,960
and he's one of the Lost Boys.

208
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,180
I already knew that.

209
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:54,260
Do you wanna know why?

210
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:55,060
Why?

211
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:56,500
Why?

212
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,820
Because my name's not really Emma.

213
00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:00,900
It's Captain

214
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:01,740
James!

215
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,380
- Hook!
- Hook!

216
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:04,980
(Poppy and Jack scream and squeal)

217
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,900
I'm gonna get yer!

218
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:11,360
(Poppy and Jack scream and squeal)

219
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:16,780
My Mum comes down to help,

220
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,980
but other than that,

221
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,020
it's just been the three of us ever since.

222
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,100
And I don't always tell people about them.

223
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,200
Why?

224
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,300
Don't want to tell a sad story.

225
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,380
I don't want them to be a sad story.

226
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,380
Have you ever written about it?

227
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:35,300
(Jack) Emma!

228
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:36,140
Yeah?

229
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:36,940
Can you chase us?

230
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,040
Can you chase us?

231
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,740
Well, I have to go now,

232
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,300
but whoever catches this magic sword

233
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,220
is gonna be the new Captain Hook.

234
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:50,620
Are you ready?

235
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:51,460
One,

236
00:09:51,560 --> 00:09:52,300
two,

237
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:53,140
three,

238
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,240
go!

239
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,940
Oh, and for the avoidance of all doubt,

240
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,900
I would like to see you again.

241
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,080
(lighthearted music)

242
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,420
(soft piano playing)

243
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:15,220
Oh, there she is.

244
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:16,460
Emma!

245
00:10:16,560 --> 00:10:17,860
Oh!

246
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,500
Oh. You look-

247
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,420
Harassed, sweaty.

248
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,140
Wonderful!

249
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,460
I really don't, but I
appreciate the conceit.

250
00:10:25,560 --> 00:10:26,300
Yo.

251
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:27,100
Yo.

252
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:27,940
Happy birthday.

253
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:29,780
Your necklace is ridiculous, by the way.

254
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:31,900
Thank you. Mum got it for me.

255
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,380
No one knows why.

256
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:37,340
Maybe in case you
forget your own name me.

257
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,340
So, I hear you met Harry.

258
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,440
Er, yeah.

259
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,220
He's nice, isn't he?

260
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,020
Mother, stop foisting
my friends onto her.

261
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:47,940
I'm just saying!

262
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,820
It might be nice to have someone more

263
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,580
reliable and dependable.

264
00:10:52,680 --> 00:10:53,540
(whispers) Reliable.

265
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:54,380
Like Dad?

266
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:55,580
Now, don't involve me in this.

267
00:10:55,680 --> 00:10:57,500
Because your career is-

268
00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,060
Dormant.

269
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:00,540
Precarious, I was gonna say.

270
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,100
So to meet someone reliable.

271
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,500
I'd like to propose a toast to Joey.

272
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,140
May you live a long and happy life,

273
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:08,860
and may all your relationships

274
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:09,980
be just like Mum and Dad's.

275
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:11,860
Fueled by alcohol
and passive aggression.

276
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:13,960
Cheers!

277
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:15,020
[Everyone] Cheers!

278
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,040
(glasses clinking)

279
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:21,860
When we came in,

280
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:22,700
one of the new waiters

281
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,960
asked me if it was a special occasion.

282
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,000
I said it was my daughter's birthday.

283
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,400
Anyway,

284
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,540
we all have a lot to look forward to.

285
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,300
You have a lot to look forward to.

286
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,500
And when I see you stood up there

287
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,580
with everyone staring at you,

288
00:11:47,680 --> 00:11:49,500
I'll be so proud.

289
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,340
I know. I just keep
thinking of Joey and-

290
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,620
[All Waiters] ♪ Happy birthday to you. ♪

291
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:01,820
♪ Happy birthday to you. ♪

292
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:06,940
♪ Happy birthday, Happy birthday. ♪

293
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:11,100

294
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,440
(applause)

295
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:19,920
Happy birthday, Joe.

296
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,540
(lighthearted upbeat music)

297
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,220
How do I look?

298
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,140
Available.

299
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:29,500
I was going for urban sophisticate.

300
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,020
Well, you've landed on slutty Sandy

301
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:32,260
from the end of Grease.

302
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,140
Do you know what I don't understand?

303
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,980
The patriarchal conditioning
at the end of Grease?

304
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,620
I do actually. I'm just redefining it.

305
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:39,620
What I don't understand is

306
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:40,500
why you were so desperate

307
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,260
for me to come out with
you for a drink tonight?

308
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:43,460
So, you know Harry?

309
00:12:43,560 --> 00:12:44,940
Yeah.

310
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,060
Well, he has this friend, Cameron,

311
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:48,940
who I've been messaging,

312
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,340
and I'm gonna go meet
them tonight for a drink.

313
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,100
And you're telling me this now because-

314
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:55,380
Because if I told you any earlier,

315
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:56,220
you would've said no.

316
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:57,940
An accurate assessment.

317
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,220
Yeah.

318
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:01,260
Come on.

319
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,180
What's the worst that could happen?

320
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,040
(dramatic music)

321
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,880
(music intensifies)

322
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,100
(music slows and fades)

323
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,500
That's all I've written so far.

324
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,620
What do you think?

325
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,720
Is it that bad?

326
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,760
I, I, I just need to,

327
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,820
I just need to find the right ending.

328
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,540
You know.

329
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:57,660
Like a way to say-

330
00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,260
I thought I'd never feel happy again,

331
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,360
but I was wrong.

332
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:03,900
Things can change,

333
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:05,140
I can change.

334
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,240
Something like that.

335
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,320
Yeah, something like that.

336
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,440
Do you think that's true?

337
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,600
Do you think people can change

338
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:23,140
after the worst, most unimaginable thing

339
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:24,060
has happened to them?

340
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,220
Do you really think
people can be happy again,

341
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,840
the way that they were before?

342
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,260
I don't think anything can
be the way it was before.

343
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,700
I think you're probably right.

344
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,440
Who else have you shown this to?

345
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,300
No one.

346
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,220
I mean just you.

347
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,320
Don't know if I'm even gonna use it.

348
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,080
I wanna tell you who Joey is.

349
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,320
Joey is my sister,

350
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,360
and she died.

351
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,660
No one else I've ever spoken
to really understands it.

352
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:13,940
Lucky them.

353
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,300
You know when you tell someone,

354
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:17,340
and they nod

355
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,940
and start comparing it
to when their Nan died?

356
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:22,980
Yeah. It is annoying, isn't it?

357
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,140
Yeah.

358
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,780
Thank you for telling me.

359
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,040
(slow dramatic music)

360
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,260
So, I became a writer

361
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,220
because I have no other marketable skills.

362
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:43,180
Can you cook?

363
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:44,860
Nope.

364
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:45,820
Can you drive?

365
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,540
Not even nearly.

366
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,540
How do you get Jack and Poppy around?

367
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,640
With great difficulty.

368
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,160
(sombre music)

369
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:02,780
Are you alright?

370
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,580
I used to swim here
all the time with Joey.

371
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,160
And do you still swim here?

372
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,940
So the way I see it,

373
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:15,940
we could either go home,

374
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:16,780
you to yours,

375
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,740
and me back to the chaos

376
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,420
of Lego and the disgruntled mother.

377
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,700
Or,

378
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,100
we could get another drink.

379
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:27,900
Okay, wait.

380
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:29,020
So let me flesh out the arguments-

381
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,120
You had me at drink.

382
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,900
(slow dramatic music)

383
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,280
(laughter)

384
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:40,780
You know what's weird?

385
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:41,700
How drunk I am?

386
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:42,620
No, no.

387
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,060
That was perfectly predictable.

388
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,160
What's weird is

389
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,460
how easy they make it to
get in when it's closed.

390
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,460
What?

391
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,260
Yeah, you just jump over.

392
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:54,300
Come on, I'll show you.

393
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,400
Absolutely not.

394
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,100
What are you waiting for?

395
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,960
(dramatic music)

396
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,500
So, was this her special place?

397
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,600
No, she hated it.

398
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:22,820
No, we came here all the time,

399
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:24,920
and yeah, we loved it.

400
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,060
We should do it together.

401
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:29,620
I don't think so.

402
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,720
I understand.

403
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:34,860
It can be pretty
intimidating to stand next

404
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:36,460
to me with my top off.

405
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:37,380
(snickers)

406
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:38,580
Hey, you laugh, but I'm telling you,

407
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,140
you do not want to know

408
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:41,940
what is going on under here.

409
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:42,860
I'm shredded.

410
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,960
I'm like coleslaw.

411
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,320
I'm sure it's lovely.

412
00:17:49,120 --> 00:17:50,220
Right.

413
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:51,340
What are you doing?

414
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,140
I'm going in.

415
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:54,140
Why?

416
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,180
Because I kind of wanted to anyway,

417
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:57,020
but if I do it now,

418
00:17:57,120 --> 00:17:58,540
then it'll seem like a grand gesture.

419
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,800
Plus if I don't do it now,

420
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,460
then I'm just the guy stood in his pants.

421
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,180
Essentially, I've overcommitted too soon.

422
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:07,260
Ben. No.

423
00:18:07,360 --> 00:18:08,340
Also by the way,

424
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,540
once I'm in, you're coming in with me.

425
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:11,540
Absolutely not!

426
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,220
If you don't do it now,
then you'll never do it.

427
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:14,540
Ben, no!

428
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:15,780
(water splashing)

429
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:17,860
(dramatic music)

430
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,960
Woo! Emma, come on!

431
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:21,380
Just do it!

432
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:22,220
There's no way!

433
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:23,180
Please. You won't regret it.

434
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:24,860
Do it, or I'm getting out.

435
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:25,740
Five,

436
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:26,780
four,

437
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,020
three,

438
00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:29,500
two, one.

439
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:30,660
Come on!

440
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,140
(water splashing)

441
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,480
(laughter)

442
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,760
(upbeat dramatic music)

443
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,960
(uptempo music)

444
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:08,780
I'm a little bit nervous,

445
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:09,620
as I'm sure you can tell.

446
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,260
And if you're thinking
that might manifest itself

447
00:19:11,360 --> 00:19:12,300
in some kind of poor performance,

448
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:13,940
then that's probably not
an accurate assumption.

449
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:15,300
Ben, stop talking.

450
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,400
Okay.

451
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:24,540
Was that your first time?

452
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:25,900
I hate to point out the obvious,

453
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,420
but,

454
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:28,420
I've got two children.

455
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:29,380
I meant, since-

456
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:30,980
Yeah.

457
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:31,980
Sorry.

458
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,080
It's okay.

459
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:36,660
You know, it's not like there's a

460
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:37,980
handbook for all this.

461
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,300
And yet, for so many years,

462
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,980
Cosmopolitan magazine
had me believe otherwise.

463
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,320
(laughter)

464
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,480
I have to go soon.

465
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,520
Not yet.

466
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:55,460
(keys jangling)

467
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,820
(television sounds)

468
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,320
(door shuts)

469
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,980
[Television] And its mother
will spend the next two years,

470
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,960
taking care of her precious charge.

471
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,340
(floor creaking)

472
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,520
(lighthearted music)

473
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,460
(children squealing)

474
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,100
Guys. Come on. Enough now, please.

475
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,220
Oi!

476
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,320
In bed now!

477
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,100
(children laughing and squealing)

478
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:55,060
In you get.

479
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:56,260
Thank you.

480
00:20:56,360 --> 00:20:58,420
(children laughing)

481
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,120
(upbeat music)

482
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:03,100
I'm going out.

483
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:03,940
I love you.

484
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:04,780
I love you.

485
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:05,940
I'll see you the morning, right?

486
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:06,740
Yes.

487
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:07,620
Yes.

488
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,420
Be good. Grandma's in the next room.

489
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,600
(children squealing)

490
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:18,580
Sorry I'm late.

491
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,300
Sorry.

492
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:21,900
There was a thing at bedtime.

493
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,180
One was a cat, one was a dog.

494
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:24,020
And they,

495
00:21:24,120 --> 00:21:25,020
and they didn't,

496
00:21:25,120 --> 00:21:26,780
anyway you wouldn't-

497
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:28,220
Understand?

498
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,140
Be interested. I was gonna say.

499
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:31,900
Well, I would be.

500
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,620
Okay. What would you wanna know?

501
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:35,940
Who was the cat, and who was the dog?

502
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,040
I've honestly no idea.

503
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:42,740
Ever since the accident,

504
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,220
I've tried pretty hard not to think

505
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,320
about how I feel

506
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,060
because it was dangerous

507
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,160
for me.

508
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,780
But when I'm with you, I feel happy.

509
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,700
Which I know doesn't sound
like a lot, but it's,

510
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,100
it's more than I ever expected to feel.

511
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,500
The reason I asked is
because there are things

512
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,540
that I want to tell you about me.

513
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:07,380
Things that I've done

514
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:08,660
that are hard for me to talk about,

515
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,820
but,

516
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:12,100
if this is what I think it is,

517
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,540
I wanna talk about them with you.

518
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,640
Okay.

519
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,640
Ben, this isn't easy.

520
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,220
Is it about Joey?

521
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,320
A bit, yeah.

522
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,600
(phone buzzing)

523
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:31,660
You should just take it.

524
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,420
I'm gonna use the loo.

525
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,200
(phone buzzing)

526
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,440
Hi Mum, what is it?

527
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,340
Wait, what's happened?

528
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,160
(dramatic music)

529
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,600
(intense music)

530
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:15,740
What, what's happening?

531
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,380
Which one's not breathing?

532
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:19,217
[Ben] You're gonna be all right!

533
00:23:19,241 --> 00:23:21,400
Don't leave them alone!

534
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:24,540
They're in the children's ward.

535
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,640
Thank you.

536
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,580
[Poppy and Jack] Daddy!

537
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,980
Hey, hey, Jack Attack.

538
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:32,900
Are you alright

539
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:34,020
I had an accident, Daddy.

540
00:23:34,120 --> 00:23:35,500
They were playing that
bloody cat and dog game,

541
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:36,377
and he hit his head on the radiator.

542
00:23:36,401 --> 00:23:37,740
Yeah, I know.

543
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,380
We're okay now.

544
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:40,740
Yeah. Yeah.

545
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,260
We're all okay?

546
00:23:42,360 --> 00:23:45,540
Hey look, I'm so sorry, you guys.

547
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,580
I'm never gonna leave
you like that ever again.

548
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,460
Okay?

549
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:51,560
Come here.

550
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,080
Daddy's here.

551
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,580
Hey.

552
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,920
(dramatic piano music)

553
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,280
Thanks.

554
00:24:08,120 --> 00:24:12,580
You know, I've seen you
all in here a few times,

555
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,220
and I always want to come over

556
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,560
to tell you how sorry I am.

557
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:19,180
(tongue clicks)

558
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,760
I still think about their Mum.

559
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,720
If she could see you all now

560
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,140
and see the beautiful people

561
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,100
you've helped her children become,

562
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,600
I think she'd be really proud

563
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,820
cause I'd be really proud.

564
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:39,920
Thank you.

565
00:24:44,120 --> 00:24:46,260
Do me a favour.

566
00:24:46,360 --> 00:24:48,460
Whatever it is the three
of you have been doing,

567
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,060
keep doing it.

568
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,240
(sombre piano music)

569
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,040
(uplifting music)

570
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:19,220
Hey.

571
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:20,340
Hey.

572
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:21,260
Sorry to bother you at work.

573
00:25:21,360 --> 00:25:22,740
No, it's fine. I'm on a break.

574
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:24,460
Yeah,

575
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,500
it's just that I wanted to speak to you,

576
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:27,860
and I didn't wanna do it over the phone.

577
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,100
I got your message. How is Jack?

578
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:31,820
Yeah, yeah, he's fine now.

579
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:33,540
Good. I was worried
when you left, I thought-

580
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:34,380
Yeah, I know,

581
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,020
I'm, I'm, I'm sorry.

582
00:25:36,120 --> 00:25:38,060
Erm, but that's not why I'm here.

583
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:39,220
Okay. Look, I haven't really slept,

584
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:40,980
and I'm sure that you haven't either,

585
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:42,860
but last night I was trying
to tell you something.

586
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:44,960
I need to talk to you.

587
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:47,980
About?

588
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,080
Us.

589
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,300
Look, erm,

590
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,780
look, my life is complicated and-

591
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:56,820
I know it is, but-

592
00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,500
Yeah. And, and I, I, I, I
wanna be honest with you, right?

593
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:01,940
I, I think I'm falling
in love with you, and

594
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,180
and, and I can't do that.

595
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:05,620
And, and, and this.

596
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,500
The children.

597
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,260
Yeah. Yeah.

598
00:26:09,360 --> 00:26:12,020
I'm, I'm, I'm barely holding
it together as it is, and

599
00:26:12,120 --> 00:26:16,380
and I don't think I
can lose someone again,

600
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,460
so,

601
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,420
need to stop it now

602
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,520
before that happens.

603
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,060
Fine.

604
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:27,140
Just go.

605
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:28,580
No, Emma, I don't wanna just go. I want-

606
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,380
I said just go, please.

607
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,120
