Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,720
Normal is a relative term,
2
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,680
and what is normal for some people
is not normal for others.
3
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:23,600
It is the thing that puts a smile
on my face, it's a train.
4
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:27,360
The outside is very unremarkable.
5
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:32,480
Oh, Jayne, this is incredible.
6
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,440
I want to create something
on the interior that's different.
7
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:44,120
To reproduce something like this
in my home would be absolutely fantastic.
8
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,640
My husband Chris and I
first came to Suffolk.
9
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,280
About 30 years ago.
10
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:08,840
We designed the house on
the interior to be based on a beach house.
11
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:13,440
We wanted it all painted white
and we wanted it to be very calming.
12
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,360
We was married for 41 years.
13
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,520
But my husband died in 2014.
14
00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:26,000
It did mean
that I've come to the house less.
15
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,680
Because I've had to step into
Chris's shoes and take over the business.
16
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,880
But I do hope
to be spending more time here.
17
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,360
My life is completely empty
without Chris.
18
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,520
I want it to feel
like Chris is here.
19
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,920
I want to create something
on the interior that's vibrant.
20
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,120
And that's what Chris was all about.
21
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,120
I head up God's Own Junkyard.
22
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,520
We are a studio full of neon signs,
23
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,200
Signs from film sets
that we've done,
24
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,160
Signs from icon destinations
throughout London.
25
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,000
We've probably go 2,000 signs
in here.
26
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:12,640
We've had loads and loads of celebs
buy neon artworks from us.
27
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,480
Kate Moss, Johnny Depp,
Elton John.
28
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,480
Chris came into the business in 1971.
29
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,240
I joined the business
in the late '70s.
30
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,440
And worked with Chris ever since.
31
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,680
They called him the Godfather of Neon,
32
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,000
The King of Neon.
33
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,640
So whenever I come in here,
the first thing I feel,
34
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,400
always, since losing Chris
35
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,360
is that the glow is his glow.
36
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:42,920
And it's shining down on me
37
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,880
and I feel warm and comforted.
38
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,040
So I'm going to transform
my three-bedroom home.
39
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,480
Into a neon extravaganza.
40
00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:00,320
My plan is to take some of the most
precious signs from my London studio.
41
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,360
And decorate my house.
42
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,440
The focal point is gonna be
a unique neon artwork.
43
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:08,960
In the sitting room.
44
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,160
I'm gonna use
different materials and textures.
45
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,160
So that we not only have
a professionally-made neon sign,
46
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,440
But also reclaimed wood panels,
47
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:19,600
Colorful LEDs,
48
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,000
And Perspex light boxes,
49
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:23,520
The whole shebang.
50
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,560
I want something that would really
mean something to me,
51
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:28,840
that would incorporate
Chris's life as well.
52
00:03:28,920 --> 00:03:31,320
I really need to get
this piece done.
53
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,200
By the third anniversary
of Chris's passing.
54
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:35,760
So I planned this party,
55
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,600
and I want everybody to walk in
and go, "Wow."
56
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:51,320
Right.
57
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,360
We have a blank piece of paper.
58
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,280
There'll be a touch from all of us,
something in there from everybody.
59
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,120
Working from what we know,
Dad and his work,
60
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,360
his colors, his style...
61
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:12,640
his amazing ability
to produce fantastic neons.
62
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:14,600
What are we gonna do?
63
00:04:18,280 --> 00:04:20,000
Something Dad said to me,
64
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:25,840
"Hey, Lin, this is the strangest life
I've ever known."
65
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,080
Typical.
66
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,680
- Yeah, and it... Yeah, that is.
- Typical.
67
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,200
Can I just put this to you,
as a starting point?
68
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:40,440
It's fantastic to work with the
boys, produce something, create together.
69
00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:45,160
It means a lot to my mom, you know,
to be able to make this piece sentimental,
70
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,880
you know, for her and for us,
this means so much.
71
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,200
You've got a combination of neon
and we can have some carnival bulbs,
72
00:04:52,280 --> 00:04:55,000
reclaimed wood letters
cut out and painted.
73
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:56,320
Making it more 3D.
74
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:57,880
Just like Dad would've done,
75
00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,960
Creating layers and effects.
76
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,440
We've sort of got the idea
on paper.
77
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,760
If we don't get it right,
if we lose something off of that...
78
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,360
...then it's kind of like
losing a bit of my dad.
79
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:15,960
This is just the start of putting together
something very special for Chris.
80
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,040
Yeah, there's a lot more work to go.
81
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,680
I live in Toronto.
82
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,560
I live with my beautiful wife Sidura
and our three amazing kids.
83
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,880
Express coming through!
84
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,440
The neighborhood is very typical.
85
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,360
You know, just to see the house
from the outside,
86
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,240
it looks like every other house.
87
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,840
Come on down. This is the basement.
88
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,760
This is a Via Rail Canada coach
in my basement.
89
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,000
Built in 1954.
90
00:06:11,840 --> 00:06:15,360
The frame of the train in the basement
is wood so I had to build that.
91
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,040
So that isn't the actual steel walls
from the real train.
92
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,920
But inside is a mix
of recreated parts.
93
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,080
And parts that are
from the real train.
94
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:24,960
So the seats are
from the real train.
95
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,440
These seats date from 1954.
96
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:28,960
Really robust.
97
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,680
And the tables were added
almost 40 years ago.
98
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,040
And it fits my whiskey glass
really nicely.
99
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,400
I love trains all over the world,
100
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,800
But it's Via trains in Canada
that I am obsessed with.
101
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,840
Isn't that great?
102
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,880
I love the equipment, I love the history
of it, I love the smell.
103
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,120
Sometimes I'll come, I'll just, you know,
really smell that upholstery.
104
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:54,960
Oh, I love it, 'cause it takes me back.
105
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,880
But at the end of the day for you,
it's really nostalgia.
106
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,960
When I was two years old
we took the train for the first time.
107
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,000
It was called the Turbo.
I remember it so vividly.
108
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,520
I became obsessed with that train.
109
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,120
But the Turbo was retired
when I was seven.
110
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:13,080
I was crying for a week and I
swore, when I was old enough to do so,
111
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,400
I was gonna build a Turbo coach
in my house.
112
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,640
I printed my own tickets.
113
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,840
And you have a 1980 Via ticket.
114
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,280
Same paper, same everything
as the original Via ticket.
115
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,560
I mean, even down
to the little tiny printing,
116
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,120
So you can really have
the whole train experience
117
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,440
by coming to my basement.
118
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,560
Overall, I think that the total outlay
for the train in the basement
119
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:33,840
is about $10,000.
120
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,160
When you think about it spread
over four and a half years
121
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,320
it's actually not a crazy amount of money.
122
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,920
On the real train
there's a bathroom over here,
123
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,280
and on mine there's no bathroom.
124
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:47,240
That would just be smelly and stinky
and instead I've got my record collection.
125
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,840
We can turn on the sounds
for the vestibule.
126
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,280
Just like that,
and they start in the vestibule.
127
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,120
The vestibule has a recording
of a real vestibule
128
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,400
on one of these cars, taped in 1979.
129
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,040
And it's really squeaky and wonky
because they were very squeaky vestibules.
130
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,440
We've got the next train car
over here as a photo mural.
131
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:10,040
So you can stand in the real train.
You think the rest of the train continues.
132
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,920
It's got wonderful
end of car details.
133
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,160
There's gotta be about 200 rivets
in here, if not more.
134
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,560
Maybe 300 rivets.
That took about two weeks.
135
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:23,080
It was a long time of,
you know, glue, pop, glue, pop.
136
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,360
Normal is a relative term.
137
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,200
And what is normal for some people
is not normal for others.
138
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,160
Jason doesn't do anything the easy way.
139
00:08:32,680 --> 00:08:34,560
We've been married 17 years.
140
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,800
And I think when you live
with something for so long.
141
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,280
And it becomes your normal,
142
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,840
You forget how to look at it
the way other people look at it.
143
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,040
Dinner.
144
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,360
I was just saying this
to the kids the other day,
145
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,960
You know, you have to work hard
in order for something to mean something.
146
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,000
You know, Jason can say with pride,
147
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,120
it took him four and a half years
to build that train in the basement,
148
00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:59,840
and he did this himself.
149
00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:02,120
I mean, it's a train.
150
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:03,680
It's awesome, it's amazing.
151
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,960
It is the thing
that puts a smile on my face,
152
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,800
because I'm seeing or being on a train.
153
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,680
Everyone has the hobby gene. I wish
more people embraced their inner nerd.
154
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,720
Today we've come to meet up
with Nick.
155
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,760
Nick makes all our glass
for God's Own Junkyard.
156
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,640
We just roll over with him,
everything to do with the design,
157
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:39,560
And the glass and the colors,
make sure everything's in stock.
158
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,880
Most importantly, to make sure
that we can get this made in time.
159
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,480
Okay, Nick, here's the design,
this is what we're looking to make.
160
00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:50,600
Any problems that you can
initially say?
161
00:09:50,680 --> 00:09:52,760
Mostly it looks all right,
apart from the S's.
162
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,600
Might need to be scaled down
a little bit.
163
00:09:54,680 --> 00:09:58,880
Right, so the big question today is
whether we're gonna get this done in time.
164
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:00,800
That is a big question.
165
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:02,240
There's a lot of glass there.
166
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,880
- Do your best though.
- I'll do my best.
167
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:15,360
This job is quite a sizable job
for the amount of time that I've got
168
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,400
so there's no real room for mistakes.
169
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,000
I use propane gas mixed with air,
170
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:26,320
Which gives you the heat.
171
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,720
Put the glass in the flame
and bend it.
172
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:33,640
When you're making neon you sometimes
get a little crack in the glass
173
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,280
which has to be repaired
or you can drop a tube,
174
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,120
You can break a tube
and it all has to be remade.
175
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,360
It becomes like a bit of spaghetti.
176
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,040
The two most challenging words
are gonna be "strangest".
177
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:47,120
And the "S".
178
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:51,520
"Strangest", I've got to follow a template
and make it fit exactly.
179
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,840
And it's gotta be done
in Chris's style,
180
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:55,920
Which is quite time-consuming.
181
00:10:57,560 --> 00:11:01,120
Emotionally, this is probably one
of the hardest pieces I've ever done.
182
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,240
Because it evokes so many memories
183
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,160
and because we're trying to get it
true Chris style.
184
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:08,600
I'm about to pump the chassis.
185
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,080
I'll pump this tube
with pure neon gas,
186
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,680
Which lights up red
once it's finished.
187
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,840
If I wanted the tube different
color I would pump it with argon gas.
188
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,080
The last bit of the process
is where the tube settles down.
189
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:34,960
And becomes a true color.
190
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:40,280
In the next couple of weeks,
I'm gonna be making visits to Nick,
191
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,800
making sure he's on it
and he ain't let me down.
192
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,640
'Cause he's up against it.
193
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,680
And then we've got to get it up
to me mom and dads' house in one piece
194
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,120
and make sure it's on that wall working
195
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,840
and it hasn't fractured
or broken in transit as well.
196
00:12:01,680 --> 00:12:04,160
I'm so excited about today.
197
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,120
Really looking forward
198
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,360
to doing something so special for Chris.
199
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,800
When I'm finished with this
it will look totally different.
200
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,360
It'll almost be like a Soho Street scene.
201
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,240
We're gonna get something up
in there.
202
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,440
Maybe something like "hotel",
nice red glow.
203
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,360
As they come in, it'll be,
oh gosh,
204
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,320
neon overload.
205
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:29,920
Brilliant.
206
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,800
I'm Martin. I live in the
southwest of England with my mate Jayne.
207
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,040
We've been in this house
for a year.
208
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,200
The outside is very unremarkable.
209
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,160
It's your standard post-war house.
210
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,760
You'd pass the house and not even
know what's going on inside.
211
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:09,280
We wanted a medieval dining room
and that kind of sprung from there.
212
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,240
We wanted the whole room
to feel medieval.
213
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,040
And I actually think when you
walk in here it does feel medieval.
214
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,320
Although the room is actually
a square room, with a bay window,
215
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,120
Because the ceiling
has been painted round,
216
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,960
it actually makes you feel
like you're in a tower.
217
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,320
There's an archway here
painted on the wall.
218
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,920
There's steps that we've done up
so it leads into another place,
219
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,640
which I absolutely love because I feel
that I want to go through that door,
220
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,040
I so want to find out
what's behind that door.
221
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,960
I wanted the color to match in
with the table and the fireplace,
222
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:47,840
Which are actually
quite different woods
223
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,760
I didn't want the place to look
like a dungeon, so I didn't want it gray.
224
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,720
I wanted it to have a warm feel.
225
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,200
I really wanted some flame lights in here.
We used to have some other flame lights.
226
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,600
The fan was quite noisy.
227
00:13:59,680 --> 00:14:03,280
I managed to find these flames
in the basket, which I think are gorgeous.
228
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,920
So I actually found these coats of arms
at a car boot sale.
229
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,800
Our family coat of arms, it was actually
black and white with three stars.
230
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,560
So I printed it and put it on here.
231
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,360
Here it is, this is the back
of our house.
232
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,040
We decided,
as the dining room was medieval,
233
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,320
It made sense to paint a castle
in the back of the house.
234
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,760
So we've got a portcullis
in the middle
235
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,200
and then there's all the battlements
across the top.
236
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,400
These are pennants, this has got
our coat of arms as well.
237
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,800
And then there's kind of a witch's corner
down here with a cauldron and a broom.
238
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,760
It's not something you would
expect to see at the back of the house.
239
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,320
Particularly our house
because it just looks very regular.
240
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,600
And unremarkable from the front.
241
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,720
I have twins,
Max and Evie who are 15.
242
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,016
Max and Evie don't particularly
share my passion for things
243
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:10,880
that are unique and different.
244
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,520
This is yours, Max. Go to this side.
245
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,640
It's not really my style.
246
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,240
My least favorite part of the house
is probably the dining room
247
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,160
because it's probably the weirdest.
248
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,480
Is there anything
you like about it or not?
249
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:24,880
I like the fireplace.
250
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,080
- Do you? The twinkling lights?
- I like the lights.
251
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:29,880
What would you do then?
252
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:31,800
- Paint it white.
- Would you?
253
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,240
I mean, it doesn't look normal, does it?
254
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:40,080
So I've got some friends coming over today
who've never seen the house before.
255
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,640
Thank you for coming.
Come on through.
256
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,520
This is our medieval dining room.
257
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,480
Oh my word.
258
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,280
Oh, Jayne, this is incredible.
259
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,200
Makes us think that we've
come down from Harry Potter.
260
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:53,360
Yeah.
261
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,800
Thank you for coming.
Come on through.
262
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,080
But actually, it doesn't really
matter, it's not for them, it's for us.
263
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,560
Where would you find a suit of armor?
264
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,920
We actually found it
in a reclamation yard.
265
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,760
It's always nice
if people like what you do.
266
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:08,440
Oh, look at this!
267
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,320
Look at the fairy garden.
268
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,600
If you turn around you can look
at the back of the house,
269
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,480
that's the last medieval surprise.
270
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,240
I love it! That was one of the first things
we ever bought, actually, wasn't it?
271
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,120
It's not a normal house, is it?
272
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,200
I think we could both do this
individually.
273
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,800
But I think we did it bigger
and better together.
274
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,440
Everyone inside. Let's go. See you later.
275
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,440
- Thanks for coming.
- Goodbye now.
276
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,480
It's been really tough
to get everything finished.
277
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,040
And finalized in time
for the party.
278
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:08,840
There were moments when I thought
this would not get finished.
279
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,960
I'm really happy
with the final piece.
280
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:36,720
It's got everything that ties
into what Chris was about with his neon.
281
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,560
It looks fabulous, it's got color,
282
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,880
It's got life, vibrance.
283
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,080
I feel like Chris is here with me.
284
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,360
Chris had a big thing
about America.
285
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,480
Anything to do with American
he would love.
286
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,720
He got the idea for Dog House
from an American motel.
287
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,800
He just thought it was brilliant
because most men end up in it anyway.
288
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:07,440
Bulb signs
were especially poignant
289
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,720
because, especially like "fun fair"
and "carnival",
290
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:15,200
When I met Chris,
he was doing beautiful fairground art.
291
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,920
They kind of always take me back
to those really early days
292
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:20,680
when we first met.
293
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:25,160
I'm gonna be really excited to see
what everybody thinks when they come in.
294
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,720
People that know us,
they know that we work in neon,
295
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,720
but I don't think they expect
to see a house full of neon.
296
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:41,240
Hi guys. I'm absolutely thrilled
that you've come along tonight.
297
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,720
And you all mean an awful lot
to me
298
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,880
and you all meant an awful lot
to Chris, as well.
299
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:52,000
And there is something
that I've made in honor of Chris.
300
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,640
And it's something
that I'd like to share with you.
301
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:56,840
Shall we go in?
302
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,160
Lovely.
303
00:19:09,120 --> 00:19:11,920
This is a one-off, isn't it,
very much so.
304
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:13,760
"Get your ya' ya's out"?
305
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,840
- I don't think so.
- Oh, that's wonderful.
306
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,280
I'm feeling really happy.
It's been lovely to see everyone
307
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:31,400
and to share the warmth
and the glow of the neon with everybody.
308
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,280
I like the lips there with the neon,
it looks really nice.
309
00:19:35,360 --> 00:19:37,600
I would probably have that
in my house.
310
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,440
We own the house just down the road.
It looks nothing like this.
311
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:44,440
Completely different.
This is unique, one in a million.
312
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,480
You won't find this anywhere else.
313
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,800
It's like saying, look, he's still
around, he's still in our lives,
314
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,960
and we'll always remember him
with his neons.
315
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,920
It's always gonna be there.
It's like the legacy of Chris.
316
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:03,840
I'm sure now I feel
that I can come to the house,
317
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:08,520
be here, whether on my own
or with the family,
