1
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,679
Nathan, have you got a boyfriend?
You don't have to say but...

2
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,149
- lt's not about being gay...
- l'm not!

3
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,550
(Donna) 'What you gonna do?
What you gonna tell her?'

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,676
- l can't!
- You'll have to!

5
00:00:18,080 --> 00:00:22,278
Ah, Stuart and Vince.
Cameron Roberts, l did Phil's accounts.

6
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:25,955
As a matter of fact
l'm dead good-looking. l was told.

7
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:28,429
Well, you are.

8
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,156
Aye aye, Bernie, one of yours?

9
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,915
You won't shift him tonight.
Clever little bugger.

10
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,356
Well, if we can get him home
you're coming with me.

11
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,876
- Take him, it's his fault.
- Fuck off, Vince.

12
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,193
(Nathan moaning)

13
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:22,996
(Alarm beeping)

14
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,513
(Alarm stops)

15
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,112
Right, come on, move, l've got work.

16
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,475
Oi! l said out!

17
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,351
And you.

18
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,879
(Radio) 'The sun goes down tonight
at nineteen minutes to five.'

19
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,475
Right, come on, shift your arse,
l've got to sign on.

20
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:56,111
'..in 33 days. Four days to go
till the Corrs play live...'

21
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,156
(Dog barking)

22
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,309
That was all right last night, wasn't it?
Bit of a laugh.

23
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,436
Am l gonna see you again or what?

24
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,760
- You can see me now.
- Oh, fuck off.

25
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,395
- Uncle Stuart!
- Call the police!

26
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,436
Mad children on the loose!

27
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,671
They do recognise you.
Thomas, say your piece.

28
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,593
Mum says your phone's broke.
You never call back.

29
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,911
Tell your mother she's not clever
and she's not funny.

30
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,877
- Bye, Stuart.
- Bye, Stu.

31
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,599
- See ya.
- Who are they?

32
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,070
Those nice men were
fixing your uncle's plumbing.

33
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,271
ls that my shirt? ls it ironed?
l met this bloke,

34
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,033
thought he was nice
but when l woke up...

35
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:51,432
You could have been dead.
Your mother's coming. Shall l tell her?

36
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:56,992
She's hanging on but if l tell her what
you're doing she'll have you back home!

37
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,038
Do you want me to tell her?! Do you?

38
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,439
No.

39
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,157
- Anything else to say?
- Sorry.

40
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,152
You're in this house
on a favour, sunshine.

41
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,196
Don't piss me off.

42
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,475
- Hi!
- Sorry l'm late.

43
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,516
Here he is.

44
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,751
Scrubbed and pressed. See you tonight!

45
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,955
- Phew.
- Why do you bother?

46
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,079
That's for the shoppin'.
And a bit extra if he needs any pens.

47
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,039
Don't buy him more than two at once,
he's always losing 'em.

48
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,071
Tonight? lt's not much warning, is it?

49
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,515
l know. l did ask Louise but...

50
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,708
Since their dad went
they think l'm gonna disappear too.

51
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,633
lf you baby-sit they'll be so excited.

52
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,518
- What's his name?
- Malcolm.

53
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,875
Don't laugh!

54
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:02,272
He's from the office, he's a bit of an idiot,
he's got really funny teeth.

55
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,999
But he asked me out -
it's good enough for me.

56
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,239
lt's just work. l'm up to my eyes.
Can't you ask Mum?

57
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,039
- Tell her l have a date?
- Good point.

58
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:15,792
(Kids yelling)

59
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,919
Do you ever go on dates?
Proper sit-down-for-dinner dates?

60
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,356
Yeah, yeah, l did once.
Shagged the waiter.

61
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,032
OK. l'll do it.

62
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,796
- l'll pick you up usual time.
- Don't give me a lift, it's embarrassing.

63
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,793
lf you'd rather not be embarrassed
then you know what to do.

64
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:42,670
Come home tonight, love. Just for tea.
Your sister'd love to see you.

65
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:44,910
And there won't be any trouble.

66
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,109
l'll pick you up tonight.
l'm not giving up, Nathan!

67
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,156
l'm not walking out!

68
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,318
There's an offer on coffee, two for one.
Might as well stock up.

69
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,755
And double the points on your card.

70
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:01,671
Get us a box of Weetabix.

71
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,350
- Your breakfast's 20 Bensons.
- For Little Lord Fauntleroy.

72
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:12,879
l'm not shopping for him. What else
does he want? Angel Delight? Nappies?

73
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,316
Get me a big box of Surf,
l've got double the laundry.

74
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:20,359
l'd forgotten how much
teenage boys masturbate.

75
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:21,839
Mum!

76
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,230
- Stiff as a board.
- Don't wash 'em, l'll have 'em!

77
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,231
Bernard says he'll have 'em.

78
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:32,678
lt's like an 0898 number.
l'll bring the stuff round in the afternoon.

79
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:37,788
We're having words about Nathan.
lt's a fortnight now, it's ridiculous.

80
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:43,195
'Scuse me, sir.

81
00:05:43,280 --> 00:05:46,909
Sue, put that on staff discount
and put my name on it. Ta.

82
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,877
You're busy, l'll just go.

83
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,878
Oh, my God. Sorry. Yeah.

84
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,316
- Cameron. We met at Phil's funeral.
- Yeah, course.

85
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,597
- Sorry. Vince.
- l know.

86
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,149
Well, bit of a coincidence.

87
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:08,279
Not really. Phil told me you worked here
so l came looking.

88
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,432
Just thought you might
fancy dinner tonight.

89
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:15,718
- Sorry, not at work, you know?
- (Whispers) ls that a yes or a no?

90
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,792
l don't know. l might be doing all sorts.

91
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,836
lt's all right, no pressure.

92
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,797
Here's my card.

93
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,190
- Think about it.
- Yeah, right. Nice card.

94
00:06:27,280 --> 00:06:29,236
Call me.

95
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,316
So why has it got to be me?

96
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:40,235
He's dull as ditchwater, wife and three
kids, one at Oxford, blah blah blah.

97
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,675
So no shock tactics, just behave.

98
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,196
Nice meal, couple of brandies
and get him to sign.

99
00:06:46,280 --> 00:06:48,396
Martin.

100
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:52,439
- Stuart. l've heard a lot about you.
- All of it lies.

101
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,636
Sandra can book us a restaurant

102
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,315
or Bridgewater Hall
if you'd prefer a concert.

103
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,550
- (Mobile phone)
- Excuse me.

104
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,279
There's a production of Twelfth Night...

105
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:07,478
- So we're talking now?
- Shut your face. Complete emergency.

106
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,915
l've been asked out - on a date.

107
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,798
Do you remember? Cameron Roberts.

108
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,429
We were stood by the buffet,
he was taller than you,

109
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,069
- Australian.
- Oh, yeah, the blind Australian.

110
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,116
- Was he nice?
- Well...

111
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:26,876
Like, he used to be nice when he
was young but he's, what, at least 36

112
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:31,238
and he's an accountant so he's
probably gonna sell me a pension.

113
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,392
- Phil's dead so he's got a gap.
- Take the initiative.

114
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,438
Seduce him over the portfolios.

115
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,233
There's other things l could be doing.

116
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,596
Like throwing that kid
out of my mother's house.

117
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,238
(Chuckles)

118
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,788
l thought you might apologise.
Course not.

119
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,633
A day like that you need a shag
at the end of it.

120
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:56,111
But he's waiting for the next shag
so he'll stop there till he gets it.

121
00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:00,159
- Why does it bother you?
- Cos every time l go round Hazel's

122
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,708
there he is - she's cookin' him tea!

123
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,916
- (Chuckles)
- Same old story.

124
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,913
lt's like that Alan Lucas,
he falls in love with you

125
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,879
and ends up locking himself
in my bathroom.

126
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,269
Said he wouldn't shift
till you come round.

127
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,750
He was in there three hours,
he was eating toothpaste!

128
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,628
l couldn't use my own toilet,
l had to piss in the sink.

129
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,269
- That's what happens because of you...
- Mr Roberts?

130
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:30,273
Yeah, l've got Mr Tyler here for you.
Putting you though.

131
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,556
Go on!

132
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,236
Hi, it's Vince, yeah.

133
00:08:39,560 --> 00:08:42,199
No, he's a trainee. A bit useless.

134
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,356
l'm sort of busy.

135
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,795
Erm, l'll give you a call in a week.

136
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,477
No. The thing is l'm really sort of...

137
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,078
All right then. OK.

138
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,908
l'm having dinner. Eight o'clock tonight.

139
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,639
- Yes!
- (Beeps horn)

140
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,676
He's got a date!

141
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,832
l've got a pension. You bastard!

142
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,715
The concert begins at eight
so l'll pick you up at ten to.

143
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,872
l did think, er... l mean, the concert. But...

144
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,236
l thought we'd have
a touch more fun, you know,

145
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:32,154
- if we went to your sort of place.
- My sort of place?

146
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,629
Your sort of place.

147
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,712
Jesus Christ, is there no one straight
left in the world?

148
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,791
Martin! Twist my arm!

149
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,108
That history project, when's it due?

150
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,111
Monday.

151
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,351
l'll take a look at it Sunday.
ls that all right?

152
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,351
Fine. Come for tea.

153
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:55,228
- lt's like having two mothers!
- And whose fault is that?

154
00:09:59,960 --> 00:10:02,474
Give it time, we'll wear him down.

155
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,268
l've banned EastEnders. He's livid.

156
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,875
lt's simple - you go upstairs,
you pack his bags,

157
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,110
shove him in the car and take him home.

158
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:18,035
- Who's in charge, you or him?
- He says, ''London'' every time l try.

159
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,829
And he could - plenty of boys his age
just take off and...

160
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,515
He likes it here too much.
While he's here he's safe.

161
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,195
- What have l done wrong?
- He's 15, that's all.

162
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:36,070
Happens all over. Some boys don't
come out of the closet - they explode.

163
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,913
What about his dad?
Can't he do anything?

164
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:43,118
He won't talk about it.
Won't talk at all. l can't tell anyone.

165
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:47,557
lf l tell his school they'll tell
social services - they'll have to.

166
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,596
And then there's Helen.

167
00:10:49,680 --> 00:10:54,151
She gets interviewed and her name
on a register at ten years old.

168
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,631
- No, all they'd do is visit.
- Oh, you'd know, wouldn't you?

169
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,310
l'm sorry, l didn't mean...

170
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:11,314
Got it wrong, didn't l? Somewhere
along the line l got it all wrong.

171
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,916
But he'll be all right, won't he?

172
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,037
lf he's out on Canal Street,
keep an eye on him.

173
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,237
- Course l will.
- Thanks, l'd better...

174
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,072
Thank you.

175
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,756
Oh, well done, Vince,
reduce a grown woman to tears.

176
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:36,152
Like no one's talked to her before.
What's the matter with you?

177
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,231
l've got a date.

178
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,628
No. l don't want a pension.

179
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,029
Cameron, just stop right there.

180
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:50,192
No pension. No.

181
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,032
lt's all your fault.

182
00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,113
lf l end up with life insurance
and endowment policies and things

183
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,270
you're paying for it, all right?

184
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,636
- Where are you anyway?
- We're going to Via Fossa.

185
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,508
l've got a new friend called Martin
so you won't be missed.

186
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,556
Thanks a lot.

187
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,676
Oh, my God, l'm here.

188
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,512
l'm going in.

189
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,398
Good luck. Keep your phone on.
And Vince?

190
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,517
Just remember one thing -
you're fantastic.

191
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,795
l'm a fantastic twat.

192
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,955
ls the Rembrandt still going?

193
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,679
Yeah, l go there. And Via Fossa.

194
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,479
And the Union, and Manto's, and Metz.

195
00:12:40,560 --> 00:12:43,677
And Napoleon's,
New York New York. And Cruz.

196
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,751
And Babylon and Paradise.

197
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,479
And Poptastic. Just every now and then.

198
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,796
- You're officially a scene queen.
- l'm not.

199
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,356
l just go out a lot. How come you don't?

200
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,355
(Sighs) What is on that street
that can surprise me?

201
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,908
But how are you gonna meet someone?

202
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:07,314
Hello.

203
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,152
Right. Yeah.

204
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,312
Are you having a starter?
l never have a starter.

205
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,676
Yes, l will, l'm starving.
l'm having a starter.

206
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,354
Blimey, look, there's hundreds of 'em!

207
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,556
Where's that wine?

208
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,995
(and Abba: Mamma Mia)

209
00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:27,591
See anyone you like?

210
00:13:27,680 --> 00:13:30,672
- There is one.
- Which one? l might know him.

211
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,589
- Oh, right.
- Sorry.

212
00:13:37,680 --> 00:13:40,035
l don't suppose that...?

213
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,998
You wouldn't, not in a million years but...

214
00:13:44,560 --> 00:13:47,791
l'll sign the contract
if you're prepared to...

215
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,953
l mean it. l will, l'll sign...if...

216
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,038
That was my boyfriend
on the phone - Vince.

217
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,554
He's seeing his accountant tonight.

218
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,437
That's OK.

219
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,715
l-l'll sign it anyway.

220
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,756
Sorry.

221
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:09,231
Tell you what, what about him?
Tall blond one, he's up for anything.

222
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,276
l'll put in a good word for you.

223
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,397
- How old is he?
- 15.

224
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,552
15? That's a bit revolting, isn't it?

225
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:19,958
Absolutely.

226
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:26,388
Nathan, l can see you now. Bet you can't
remember my name, you dirty shagger.

227
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,074
- You hanging round for a bit?
- No, we're going.

228
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,549
- We just got here.
- We're going.

229
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,596
Nathan, love, calm down.

230
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,229
This might come as a shock
but l'm not in love with you.

231
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:42,633
Back in a minute. l'll have a dry martini.
lt's Daniel, by the way. Dazz.

232
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:48,271
Daniel from last night? Daniel
the six foot two barrister with a BMW?

233
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,510
No, that's a different Daniel!

234
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,272
(Laughs)

235
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,157
(Laughs sarcastically)

236
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,278
lt's a nightmare. He says he's 36, the liar.

237
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,830
He's an old man.
lt's like the auditions for Cocoon 3.

238
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,993
Tell him that story about the broken leg.
That always works.

239
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,196
ls that Vince? Say hello from me.

240
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,475
Er, some twat says hello.

241
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:14,678
ls it Nathan? His mother had
a right go at me. Keep an eye on him.

242
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:18,435
Never mind him,
just think about yourself for once.

243
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:29,515
We could go somewhere afterwards.
ls Cruz open? You're the expert.

244
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:34,833
Listen, l've got to make this call - there's
this boy and no one's looking after him.

245
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:36,876
You don't mind?

246
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:43,473
Stuart, seriously,
it's your fault he's left home.

247
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,949
- (Beep)
- Hold on, call waiting.

248
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,474
- Yeah?
- Stuart, thank you so much.

249
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,870
That's all Ben needs,
another man to abandon him.

250
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,839
l did leave a message.
lt's an emergency, l've got to work.

251
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:01,118
You're in a bar - l can hear it!
How many dates do you think l get...

252
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,077
- (Beep)
- 'Hold on.'

253
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,680
- Yeah?
- Are you with Martin Brooks?

254
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:11,151
His wife's on the phone,
she's had the roof fall in or something.

255
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,073
- Martin, it's your wife.
- l'm not here.

256
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,038
- He's not here.
- Call waiting. He's busy.

257
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,829
Look, could you
put it down just for a minute?

258
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,992
- (Beeping)
- Yeah. Sure. Sorry.

259
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,311
- lf you want to go clubbing, l...
- (Mobile phone)

260
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,756
Sorry, l promised his mother. Hello?

261
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:34,196
- Vince, put him on the phone.
- l'm not with Stuart.

262
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,590
You're always with him!
l was supposed to be on a date!

263
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,514
Marie, honestly, l'm not.
Hold on. Call waiting.

264
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:42,953
(Beeps)

265
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,110
- Yeah?
- Vince, put him on.

266
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,510
l know he's taken
Martin Brooks to some dive.

267
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,353
- l'm not with Stuart.
- His wife's going mental.

268
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,635
- Whose wife?
- Martin Brooks'!

269
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,836
- Who's Martin Brooks?
- (Beep)

270
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,151
Hold on, call waiting. What?!

271
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,708
- You hung up.
- Are you with Martin Brooks?

272
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,792
- How do you know him?
- Sandra's chasing him.

273
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,474
- l've never heard of him!
- 'Hold on.'

274
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,109
- He's not with Martin Brooks.
- Who's Martin Brooks?

275
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:16,513
- Sorry, wrong one. No Martin Brooks.
- He is and his roof has fallen in!

276
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:20,070
- Whose roof?
- Martin Brooks'!

277
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:25,188
- Marie, is your date with Martin Brooks?
- Who the fuck is Martin Brooks?!

278
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:29,478
- He's got a wife and a dodgy roof.
- l know him. Let me have a word.

279
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,149
Oi! That's my phone!

280
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,756
Call me.

281
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,193
What with?

282
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,078
(and Blondie: Picture This)

283
00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,914
- Bastard accountants.
- Sweetheart, l've missed you.

284
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,915
l'm stocking up on this aftershave.

285
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,596
Oi, Donna says you've had him.

286
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:12,719
Well, that's the last you'll see of him.
He's a chicken hawk.

287
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:17,157
Buy you dinner but once they've
shagged you they won't look at you.

288
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,391
- l've had him twice.
- He never bought you dinner.

289
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,119
- Do you like him?
- He's all right.

290
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,715
Oh! Like Nathan's not
completely in love?

291
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:31,191
Word of advice - he can swan about
but there's one thing he's short of,

292
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:33,430
he's not young and he knows it.

293
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:35,875
Your age, you can make him beg.

294
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,596
- What's your name?
- Adrian.

295
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,148
Martin. Martin, Adrian. Off you go.

296
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:42,514
Drink?

297
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,556
(and Abba: SOS)

298
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,474
- Waste of time, he didn't even like me.
- He must have.

299
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,235
No shag. He's gay, we go out on a date.
Where's the shag?

300
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,996
l don't care. See that bloke there?
He's been looking. l'm going over.

301
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:01,915
- He asked you out, he kissed you.
- Then he went home! lt's unnatural.

302
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,992
ls it so hard to believe
someone fancies you?

303
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,469
l don't care. l'm shagging. l am.

304
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,874
(Donna laughing)

305
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,952
Sorry, d'you mind
shutting your mouth a bit?

306
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:36,996
Yeah, sure.

307
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:40,558
Er...

308
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,110
lt's just more sexy
if you keep your mouth shut a bit.

309
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,156
Yeah, sure.

310
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,192
Oh, my God, you've got
Genesis Of The Daleks!

311
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,748
- Yeah?
- Can we watch it?

312
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:59,118
- We can watch it after, yeah?
- Oh! Can we watch it now?

313
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:00,553
Please?

314
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:05,475
- 'Davros!'
- 'Exterminate! Exterminate!'

315
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,391
'Exterminate!'

316
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,677
Cos this is the first time
Davros ever appeared,

317
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,514
he's manipulating the war
between the Kaleds and the Thals.

318
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,990
- l know.
- Cos they were the first Daleks ever

319
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,356
and they were called
the Mark Three Travel Machine.

320
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,476
l know, it's my tape.

321
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:28,719
Three more episodes! Molto bene, molto!

322
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,030
(Davros) '..the supreme creature,

323
00:20:31,120 --> 00:20:34,317
'the ultimate conqueror of the universe!
The Dalek!'

324
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,189
lt was all right. lt was nice.

325
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,236
Apart from the spitting.

326
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,276
l suppose you got lucky?

327
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:48,432
Good clubs, though. Must be marvellous
doing that all the time.

328
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,954
- Do you think?
- Should be good tonight.

329
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,315
What time is your train at?

330
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,356
Oh, l'll call and cancel.

331
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,159
- l'll tell Anne l've got to work.
- Fine.

332
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,994
Cancel, go ahead, get pissed,
get shagged. Fine!

333
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:07,039
Do it again and again,
get shagged every night of your life.

334
00:21:07,120 --> 00:21:09,509
Forget your wife, forget your kids.

335
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,559
Just don't be a tourist.
You either do it or you don't.

336
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,438
So what's it gonna be?
Staying or going?

337
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,154
My train's at half past.

338
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,517
They're all talking.
Amanda Boyce for starters.

339
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,352
What did she say?

340
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,876
''How come Nathan
doesn't walk to school any more?''

341
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:40,715
And Chinese Susan says, ''He's never
home. lt's like there's a divorce.''

342
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,711
What did you say?

343
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,234
l said nothing. l said l don't know.

344
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,278
- That is brilliant!
- No, it's not!

345
00:21:48,360 --> 00:21:52,558
lf school hears, you'll have
education welfare down your back.

346
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,189
lt happened to Billy Valentine.
They put him in care.

347
00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:00,034
- And he had real problems.
- l've got real problems!

348
00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:04,557
Oh, like what? Like your mother's
been going through your things?

349
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,200
- Big deal!
- She knew everything!

350
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,157
She'd been spying!

351
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,800
So? She's your mother, it's her job!

352
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,350
She thinks if l move back home
l'll go back to normal.

353
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,715
Like l'm sick and l'll get better.

354
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,509
- She never said that.
- You don't know her! You know nothing!

355
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:25,751
Cos you're straight!
You're part of the system!

356
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,400
The fascist heterosexual orthodoxy!

357
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,233
l'm black and l'm a girl.

358
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,550
Try that for a week.

359
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:38,509
- l'm late, l'm on the midday shift.
- You've got The Seeds Of Death!

360
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,556
lt's a classic!

361
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,913
l'll...come round and watch it some time.
ls that all right?

362
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,956
Yeah.

363
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,069
Well...bye.

364
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,995
Beware the Mentiads!

365
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,149
(Door closes)

366
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,514
l took him to Alderley Edge, he loved it.

367
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,989
- Vince not with you?
- Should he be?

368
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:13,154
l was talking to Alfred. We've been
entertaining another of your babies.

369
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:17,233
When Helen was five
she used to ride piggyback. Hiya.

370
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,914
- Why are you here?
- l was passing.

371
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,788
Weekends, l could look after Alfred.
You know, baby-sit.

372
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,997
You work all week
you must be worn out at your age.

373
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,470
We like Nathan. Nathan can stay.

374
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,350
lt's like having a houseboy -
he could do the garden!

375
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:40,399
lt's the Stuart Jones Foundation
For Fallen Boys.

376
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:44,837
- Can l help it if he's obsessed?
- At 15? What does that make you?

377
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,798
- A train set? A PlayStation?
- (Laughing)

378
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:53,437
(Ghanaian accent) Sorry,
am l interrupting? This must be Stuart?

379
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,636
Heard all about you, mate.

380
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,314
l have heard nothing about you, mate.

381
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,392
Lance. Lance Ampomah.
Nice to meet you.

382
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:05,917
l have told you. Lance works at the
university. We did a seminar on ethics.

383
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,956
lf you listened.

384
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:12,318
He's moved in. He's got the
room at the back. Our token straight.

385
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:16,029
Oh, look at Alfie. lsn't he hot in that?
Do you mind?

386
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:24,149
- (Crying)
- Oh, oh, oh, come here big fella, yes?

387
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,470
Er, moved in since when?

388
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,109
Oh, it's not for long.
My visa expires in five months.

389
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:35,955
l had to move flats last week
so Romey helped me out.

390
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,315
l'm another one of her lost causes.

391
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,312
You can't turn your back on this house.

392
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,470
And yet you still do.

393
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:46,996
(Lance) Oh, there we go.

394
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,958
- Look at that. Oh...
- (Gurgling)

395
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,031
Oh-oh, who can fly then?

396
00:24:52,120 --> 00:24:55,590
Yes. Yes, you can. And again!

397
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,718
Knock knock. lt's Eileen's last day,
we're going for a drink.

398
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,110
- D'you fancy coming?
- Er, no... Sort of busy.

399
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:16,909
- Anything interesting?
- No, just this friend.

400
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,151
- l might not go.
- ls it a date?

401
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,310
Erm...

402
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,152
Might be.

403
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,590
Have a good time. Good for you.

404
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,151
lf you don't go
we'll be in the Feathers at seven.

405
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,756
Hello, it's me, Vince.

406
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,436
l did phone. l left a message.

407
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:11,911
ls this what you do on Saturdays,
apologise for the week?

408
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,911
The childminder's
a bit stupid with messages.

409
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,072
- Get an answerphone.
- l had one. Robert took it.

410
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,116
Here, get a new one.

411
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,237
The car needs a service,
the clutch is going.

412
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,835
- How much?
- 200.

413
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:34,711
And Tom's nagging for software,
he wants a new graphics package.

414
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,677
Just call it 500, yeah?

415
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,159
Fine.

416
00:26:39,120 --> 00:26:42,749
- Oh, Mum and Dad are getting a divorce.
- Yeah, yeah. Funny.

417
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,799
You've been to see them?
Driven all of ten miles to see them?

418
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:50,077
Course, they don't tell golden boy.
l get it all.

419
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:54,233
- What have they said?
- You could just write them a cheque.

420
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:58,313
lf you don't believe me, go and see them.
l'll draw you a map.

421
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,075
(and Pounding techno)

422
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:09,469
Honestly, l don't mind,
we could go down Castlefield.

423
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,516
You like this place, you said.

424
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,512
lt's your day, we're doing what you like.

425
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,152
Problem is, it all starts to look the same.

426
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:24,313
l spent three years in Sydney, you know?
lt's fantastic.

427
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:28,359
The scene's huge, hundreds of pubs,
and then l come here,

428
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,352
halfway across the world
and what do l find?

429
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,910
The same men
standing in the same clubs.

430
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:40,399
- Yeah. What's the same?
- The men.

431
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,436
Right.

432
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,751
- Same as what?
- The same as Sydney.

433
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,752
- She was at the funeral, that woman.
- What woman?

434
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,070
(Cameron) That one there.

435
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,038
Hey! Where the fuck have you been?!

436
00:27:54,120 --> 00:27:57,271
Hiya. Stuart, Cameron. You've met.

437
00:27:57,360 --> 00:28:00,033
That's right, yeah, we met by the buffet.

438
00:28:00,120 --> 00:28:03,396
l liked that buffet,
it was fucking excellent.

439
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,869
- You're pissed.
- Get me a drink!

440
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,989
(and Touch And Go:
Would You Go To Bed With Me? )

441
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,676
and Would you go to bed with me?

442
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,673
- What does an account director do?
- l direct accounts.

443
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:35,396
Some of it's shit
but some of the clients are good.

444
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,552
Manchester indie labels,
that sort of thing.

445
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,596
l could do it in my sleep.

446
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,433
l don't know. l'm thinking about moving.

447
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,431
l'm lookin' around.

448
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,478
- What for?
- Anything.

449
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:57,590
There's always something better,
isn't there? Waiting to come along.

450
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:00,511
D'you know that feeling?

451
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,516
Here you go.

452
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,035
You took your time. l missed you.

453
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,716
Oh, don't mind me.
