🎵

Daddy.

Daddy?

Hello.

Daddy, bird.

I thought I was in the song yet.

Looking for words.

Fellas in puricus.

Dad, I don't remember that when you next get a confession.

Come here.

What are they?

They're a kind of mushroom.

Can't you smell them?

Ugh.

Smells like dead meat.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

Ugh.

Smells like dead rats.

Smell comes from the green slime on the caps.

You told me that after breakfast?

They're commonly called stink horns.

Very apt.

Germans used to call the eggs they come from devil's eggs.

They used to use them to make aphrodisiacs.

Must have gone to bed with pigs on their noses.

Ha ha ha.

Mum is written.

She gets back from Germany today.

Is hurting a displaced person?

I have to think of her after her playing Lady Bountable.

You know, you should have done something like that.

Maybe I believe charity begins at home.

Getting you sorted out.

You should be making a home with your own.

I don't think we'll go into that if you don't mind.

I wish I could help.

Well, another item of confession if you're not careful.

I wish you'd do better than God.

Mum's gone back to his wife.

There's never any doubt that he would.

But both good Catholics.

Poor love.

That was the war that was.

I'll go and see Mrs. Laird about breakfast.

Cole?

Cole, don't be all day of talk to the library at nine.

You didn't pull the chain again.

I didn't do anything.

Well, what were you doing in there then?

How was trying?

But you put me off.

Another for serving?

Has anybody called Lake?

No, I'll let him lay him.

He was working down his yard till God knows what time last night.

It's Saturday anyway.

What's that got to do with it?

Well, he works for himself now.

I don't see why he shouldn't anticipate.

The five-day week will all want when the country gets back on its feet.

Whenever that might be.

When Nelson gets his eye back.

I won't never get you, Mother used to say.

The only union that she ever belonged to was Mother's Union.

Six days' shot-down labor.

And you know where that's written.

Yeah, conditions of employment with Stanton ironworks.

No reading at table.

And I want a nice clean plate today, young fellow Millad.

It's your last day.

He could sound like the day of judgment.

And that's not so far off neither.

Oh, Dad, the sun's shining on creation this morning.

We know you're in touch with the maker.

Don't let it go in just yet, eh?

He's going to a better place than this is, Carl.

42 Betsy Street, my old house.

You're going to like it there, Carl.

I can vouch for it.

I lived at peace when I lived in Betsy Street.

Armin.

Ready to help me get us all moved today, are you?

If you want me to.

I'll tap this up for Jean.

Well, that wasn't very gracious, was it, if you want me to?

I don't want to go.

Don't you have a house of your own?

Everyone wants a house of their own.

This is my house.

I'll see if it's a new one.

That's not enough to keep us.

Sparrow alive.

Let alone move house on.

Oh, very well.

What'd you say?

Please go leave the table.

There you go.

Wants to leave the table but doesn't want to leave the house.

Maybe it rubs off from Owen.

Well, Owen's only going because he knows he must.

They've got to lead their own lives.

The man with the child's fear of the dark is Owen.

I've seen no fear in him, in his job.

When he goes out in the dark after poachers.

Another kind of dark, I mean.

Here you are.

Tom.

They say they're last of the Ukrainians left the camp yesterday.

They earned this left last week.

I went round to try and see him, but they'd already taken him off.

Better for you.

Oh.

Bill for you.

Oh, one for Blake with a German stamp.

I'll just get my shoes and then I'm off.

Well, wait, Blake told me, will you?

I forgot Mark's calling for him.

That would be from his froline.

They want me to sing.

Blake's coming to men the end,

until of my father's steam launch.

Have at the lake. Why didn't you come with us?

I've homework to do.

What? All weekend?

We still get homework.

He went to board in school, didn't he?

In public school.

The same one my father went to.

Grandfather two was a matter of fact.

What was it like?

Oh, for me.

Some of the champs liked it well enough, I dare say.

Depends on your temperament, I suppose.

Peg says that's why I like your house.

Why?

It's a home.

I don't feel I ever had one.

Breakfast ready.

Good.

How's Mark making out at the estate office?

Does he like it, I think?

Why don't you ask him?

Well, I'd be a more or less tired of the ironworks.

Since I got back to the estate, you need to grip some things.

I was hoping he'd say something.

Imagine if he'd hated the job he would have.

He loves it.

It was the ironworks he hated.

I'm glad you didn't try to pressurize him

into carrying on the family name there.

Yes, well, I understood you see.

I inherited the double responsibility, the works and the estate.

I know where my own real interest lies.

Perhaps I envy him in a way.

Is it still keen on Peg as he?

They're inseparable.

Except there's the same old problem, of course.

She won't become a Catholic.

Mark thinks she shouldn't have to.

She waits in patience while he agonizes.

I think we shall lose him.

Mayor Cooper?

Oh, I haven't said yet.

We did that hair shirt, Daddy.

He hated school.

He barely got to university when we had a war.

It should have been some of the best years of his life he'd spent in the army.

He's institutionalized.

It was worse than if he'd been an orphan.

Oh, that's a terrible thought.

Terrible for me, I mean.

It's not all your fault.

Any more than it was that you and Mummy separated.

I don't want to open up old wounds, but she was unfaithful to you.

The fact that Man was killed at your both alone now doesn't alter that.

Did you take it very badly when he was killed?

Yes.

Well, I say that.

We hardly saw each other for four years.

Did you meet him at all?

No.

She wanted me to.

I couldn't.

I don't think Mark would have either.

Still, your charm seems to have worked on Peg.

Maybe she'll convert him.

Peg's brother's coming today, by the way.

To many engine of the steam launch for you.

It is almost impossible now to move between zones which are occupied by a marriage.

I'm not a African American or British or Russians.

Now I'm in the British zone where my father still is, but for some few weeks only.

Soon I must return to the East.

This is the last letter I'm writing to you.

Where is Owen?

You'd be in the attic.

Looking for some of his old things, we put away there.

I can't think why he wants to take everything.

But most of Grandad's furniture's still in the place.

I just wish that van would come.

You know we're taking the bed.

Stop worrying.

We're moving love that's been in there.

But I think he wants to stay with Blake.

Something's making him miserable.

Moodiness seems to be contagious in this house.

I'm sorry, but honestly I think Owen would take the wall paper.

It's better like this. It'll help you. Both of you.

And Bladerns came here that time.

He loved you all.

I think you reminded him of his family.

You know the prisoners have gone for an account.

Yes, I know.

Perhaps he's with them now.

His family.

The dead.

I wanted it too, you know.

To die.

He wouldn't let me.

He was right.

I'm glad about your news.

What's your message hearing you sing?

I don't know anything about music.

Neither do I.

Does George know?

No. He's always been a bit odd about my singing.

As if it came between us silly man.

What about your politics?

I'll say to him.

Oh wow, tell him in due course.

Mark's got a flake.

Snowgrape rush.

And peg on.

Did you pass ya?

I'd be on the beach with love it.

We're picking her up at the library if they're little.

I'll tell Blakey here.

Excuse me.

Hey, love it.

Fishing there in port.

Can't grandad. That won't let me.

Oh, can I tell you since when?

Since we sent last week.

We didn't think we proved it would float full of water.

Of homework in any case.

Taking me mate off me now, is he?

Hello darling.

We didn't expect you so soon.

I got back last night.

I assumed you'd be here.

Haven't come to drag you back to my place by the way.

Your father here?

Yes.

Mark's here with Pec's brother.

They're doing something to the steam launch.

Let's get into it.

Do you think your father might have some spare petrol, Coopens?

You've got extra rations here work.

I've come rather a long way.

You've taken the trade really.

But I've got to go back from a different airfield at the end of next week.

He's no idea what I've actually been doing in Germany, has he?

He's assumed you've been playing Lady Bunford with troops.

I don't even have to tell a little white lie.

Yes, I thought he might have assumed I'd been doing something like that.

It's a natural assumption to pre-war you.

It would be for him.

Oh, money, be kind.

I haven't spoken to each other for more than five or six hours in this many years.

How do you know there isn't a new post-war him too?

She hides it.

It says it makes me fat.

You can have my sugar ration.

Oh, I'm not really annoyed.

It's her way of getting back at me, though, that I always like to think of as my war effort.

Fraternizing with the Angkias, you call.

It sounds worse than fraternizing with a journey.

Excuse me, I think Blake's having some trouble.

I think you ought to have a word in yourself.

Oh, then I will, of course.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

But it doesn't have to be for continuous time.

insight...

of course.

Well, then I will, of course.

Why'd you call himself?

Come on, this habit.

Respect for one's payment should be demonstrated even when he doesn't exist.

Like a lot of other things.

Oh, Sauer Leading Allan puts it in.

I'm not allowed on the premises when the managers fired me.

I gather you weren't too dismayed.

Peg tells me you started in business on your own.

It's what the country needs to get off our pre-war back sides and work, you mean?

As opposed to just collecting the rents.

I suppose that's part of it.

I think I can understand the reason for that particular socialist point of view.

I'm not a socialist, as a matter of fact.

I don't believe in nationalisation.

I just want a world in which what people have has been fairly in.

They're looking me straight in the eye to say it.

Nothing personal.

But if the cap fits weird, yes?

John?

How was Germany?

Chaos.

Good to see you.

Peg wants you to be in this photograph with him.

You stayed at lunch?

I could be persuaded.

Good.

He's assumed we've been introduced.

I'm Beth Warrington, my ex-mother.

Blake Hayward.

You've been in Germany.

I've just come back from there.

I've been trying to get there for the last 12 months.

They say it's impossible.

It is for most people.

Why do you want to get to Germany?

I have a friend there.

English.

German.

It seemed to be Steve.

Beth, pay your attention on this one.

Coming.

Pass me the half inch, will you?

That's a one inch, you public school.

I suppose even a woman should know the difference between half and one inch.

I'm our sister, Rose.

Blake Hayward.

Been binding to you about his public school education, has he?

Yeah, since we met just before the end.

The end?

Doesn't feel like the end, does it?

Doesn't to me, in over a year's gone by.

Same grey old wartime world.

We're not careful, we should get too fond of it.

Yeah.

That's something you, of course.

Peg, Mark.

Can't imagine that happening before the war.

You approve.

Well, I hope I'm not a snob.

Oh, boot on the other foot now, eh?

Come on, you two, flush.

You're staying?

Well, I hope so.

I've always wanted to see out the other half-eats.

Away from the officers, Matt.

I'll be along in a minute.

Interesting family.

Hmm.

Like us.

No two of us in.

Now, tell me you're a wizard with an engine.

Oh, anything that makes the wheels go round?

I might be able to get you to Germany.

How?

I don't want to talk about it here.

Get Mark to bring you over to the cottage.

I'm not English, gentlemen.

It's good to see you.

Have you got any more news from Blake?

Yes.

I received this this morning.

You should be hearing a couple of days.

You know how unpredictable traveling is these days?

Yes.

Without your help, I couldn't even have come here to my father's funeral.

If I had only come to the west, then Blake wished me to.

How different life would have been?

We thought your father was in the east.

And life's no better here than in the Russian sector.

You have been.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

You have been.

No.

Not happened.

And how could you know what kind of life I speak of?

When does your permit expire? I've forgotten.

In a week.

I could run away, disappear in the city, of course.

Don't be alarmed. I shall not embarrass you.

You know I have to go back.

And why?

And since I have to go back, it is better not to see him.

It's the reason he's coming.

Yes, I know.

But when my father is buried, I shall go.

You understand?

Yes.

Yes, I understand.

No.

There's going to be any room on this thing for us.

It's always like this.

Hey, Fred.

Oh, it's right.

This is Blake here with me.

For her chances.

Well...

We simply wait, hopefully.

There's some experience.

To us during the war?

You flew during the war.

To France.

Well, it's no longer secret.

Except for my husband.

We're separated.

But I suppose you gathered that from Mark.

It must be obvious anyway.

It is, naturally.

But I know we're near together.

How much can you know of any two people by simply seeing them together?

Not much, I think.

Sorry.

I'm not sure if you know any of my business.

But why do you not want him to know all of this?

I was a man.

It was responsible for my becoming involved.

I made him through my caring work.

I speak German, French.

And this refugee thing, you're involved in.

Through him also.

There he was dead when they asked me to do it.

Through his memory, you could say.

You run the whole thing.

Ha!

You signed his disbelieving as my husband.

It's my turn to be curious.

About your German friend.

We met on V-E day.

I was in the Tank Corps station in her town.

When the Als Agreement was made up, we were inside the Russian sector.

We pulled back and she stayed.

She was searching for her father.

She's been there ever since.

How it is in Germany now.

You have sympathy for them.

Certainly not.

Not for Buchenwald, Auschwitz, Dachau.

Gonna be a problem for them too, learning to live with him.

And the world people in the German naval movement before the war.

Some got hired, and stayed, died in the camps.

This is where it goes.

Thank you for helping those.

Well, I'm hoping that when you see what is life out there, you'll want to stay and help us.

We need your skills to keep our supply trucks moving.

I want to get out of this safe.

Do we go down with him?

No, you go with him. I'll go in and let the knower here.

What have I done?

Done? I don't understand you.

I've done something.

Said something, haven't I? I've upset you.

It's not you. It's me.

Always moody on Sundays.

You go with him.

I'm going.

How long have you had this?

They told me it's school two weeks ago.

Two weeks?

I was on a rub, but the boy I win the place can't take it.

Have you told anybody else?

No.

Anybody who thinks it ashamed.

You've won a scholarship to a good school.

You should be proud, not ashamed.

I just don't understand you love it.

I don't want to go.

Why?

Just don't.

Just don't.

I've not done a thing to your old room yet. Not even cleaned it.

And I must get it done before Blake gets back.

Did I ever tell you what Owen said about the wallpaper in that room?

What?

When he was in that Japanese camp, he used to close his eyes and think of it, he said.

Think of wallpaper.

You every inch of the pattern fixed in his mind.

Made him feel closer to home, I suppose.

It's been a wrench for him leaving here.

Even just down the road to his granddad's old house.

He didn't say much.

Well, he never does.

There's a lot goes on in his head that he never tells.

And I still fear to push him to tell me what happened to him.

What they did to him out there.

How long has he had this?

A couple of weeks.

Two weeks.

Left it here on purpose, I reckon.

Oh, when I break the bad news.

The bad news?

Ah, sconnyship to a public school.

Your own lad, after what you said about him.

A breeding ground for privilege.

You called him once, as I remember.

Yeah, but it's an achievement for him even so.

There's no reason to keep it from us.

Unless he wants to go and has a fear to tell you.

You'd say near to him, wouldn't you?

We couldn't afford it.

It's a scholarship.

Ah, yes, but there'd be things we couldn't provide.

If he was going to stand his ground.

Now look, there's no more money coming into this house than there was during the war.

Care keeps himself in London, and now to spare, Blake's gone off and for all I know might not come back again.

Even the bit we had coming in from Owen and Jean staying with us has gone now.

Ah, well, it's a better excuse than principles, I suppose.

It's not an excuse. It's a reality.

Do you know what respect you've got for principles?

I have principles on my own.

And I don't expect others to pay the price for them though.

It's not the reason, Dad.

The reason good enough, even so, look, I'm local secretary to a party that seeks to reform education.

To carry on where Butler's reforms left off.

Butler, I'm sick of hearing about Butler.

They're all the same, you're not.

He's a bloody Tory.

Oh, well, shame on him then.

You think I am ignorant, don't you?

Why do you say that?

Well, I am ignorant. I know I am.

I did better for you than was done for me.

So it's up to you to do better for him.

That's how life goes forward, not with ideals.

Ideas can blind you to facts.

What you believe today can be rubbish tomorrow.

But there's then that go on believing it regardless of clinging on.

It's his future we're talking about, not yours.

Not yours.

You think I am not yours?

I'm not yours.

I'm yours.

You're not yours.

You're mine.

No!

Dad!

No!

No!

No!

No, wait.

I'll never leave all of it.

Never leave all.

I don't care.

I'm not me.

I'll be done.

What do we do now?

Wait. Again.

Face and see.

The track will come if it hasn't broken down.

They're always breaking down. That's why we need your services.

Will it come to this actual spot?

Those bags do every for you.

There's in them for God's sake.

Or should I ask?

Something that's probably literally worth its weight in gold.

Cotton.

Strips of cotton.

We use it to make shoes out of old tires.

You can't beg, borrow or steal it in Europe now.

I'll be done.

Come on. Relax.

No more creation, I know.

You've seen five years of war on faces of some of the people you'll meet out here.

And realise that it won't be wiped away in...

A lifetime for some.

We'll be done.

When you accepted that, you've learnt a way.

You've been doing this since the end of the war.

I was in Prague a few weeks ago.

I visited an internment camp for Germans of Iliad.

They showed me a room with a Germans' honey prisoners with wire.

After a trial in which all that was said was, you haven't been granted mercy.

A clean room.

White tires.

A hose to wash down afterwards.

You learned to forgive the hard way, didn't you?

What other way is that?

But now, in the room next to this one, there are dying babies.

Some of them born to check women or married to Germans.

Alone.

Dying alone.

Nobody even to sit with them.

In this world in which we all have to live.

It seems to be the father.

You wonder that I'm still a Catholic.

After all that, yes I did.

Because of all that.

What's your fear?

Don't have any.

You'll find life more comfortable that way.

You're supposed to be the other way around.

Who is this friend you wanted me to get the messiest of?

We were in the army together.

In the beginning of the second front.

I was the first to be demobbed.

And he wrote to me and said he decided to stay on.

Hard really, I wouldn't have thought he was a titan.

How can he help?

Some time ago, I asked him to try and find her for me.

Every time she wrote to me there was some different address.

I got all her letters, but all mine will return, Mark, gone away.

And a month ago he wrote to me and said he thought he found her father.

For you hope?

Yes, I hope.

Don't hope to, Mark.

That looks like our chuck.

You'll be at the airfield in a couple of hours.

I thought he'd made up your mind.

I have. My mind is made up.

I think not.

You know my mind better than I know it.

Then you want me to tell him that you won't see him?

No.

Only that you do not know where I am.

I told him I'd found your father.

You'll ask to see him.

What shall I tell him then?

Very well.

Tell him to.

Tell him that I cannot see him not wound.

That I cannot.

Then he'll want to know why.

I ask you to lie for me.

And you don't wish to lie.

I'm wrong to ask.

I will see him then.

I'm such a bad liar, T

I'm sorry.

Remember the day we met for the first time?

Vide.

War was over.

All that terrible thing was over, we thought.

You cooked for us.

We sat at the table. You.

He and I, like a family.

The beginning of our peace.

We thought.

A good time.

Yes.

Yes, a good time.

Ross?

Pardon the constituents.

They are signing me out to stand for the seat.

Oh, daddy, that's marvellous.

The next election is four years away.

Labour members, not a well man.

These all night sitings they've been having in the house.

They're taking their toll already.

He'll hang on as long as he can.

Of course, they all will.

It's a very intense conversation going on over there.

I'd permission to tell you.

He's proposing.

He showed me the ring.

We've lost him then.

In respect of his faith, I mean.

But there's a game.

You lose and you win.

I like her enormously.

You know I do.

She tries so hard to bridge the gap between Mark and myself.

Little success, I'll ask, but she tries.

There's another gap to be faced to, isn't there?

We've made no effort at all to meet her people.

I've tried.

It's Mark who stands in the way.

It's almost as if he were ashamed of us.

Could you take me home, please?

What's all this about?

What did he dial?

A malnutrition, old age, defeat.

The usual erosion and speed it up.

People are dying too quickly.

They're not the facilities, even to give them a decent barrier.

Why did you stay on?

To learn?

Learn what?

About survival.

It's a fascinating subject.

Almost every instinct of life is subordinated to it.

I don't know.

So why didn't you tell me?

I don't know.

I don't know.

I'm not saying.

I don't know, honest.

Has he got anything to do with me and me politics?

A bit.

And the rest.

I don't want to leave here.

I like it here.

Well, don't be on the defensive.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to stay with your roots.

Unless I got like Owen.

Owen.

You're trying to go anywhere.

You won't even go to Silport.

Oh, says he won't.

I heard you tell Mum.

Yeah, well, that's some of the war did to him.

Will he always be like that?

I don't know, son.

No, as for this other thing.

Look, I named you after a well-known Labourman like I did the other laps.

But what you are, what you become is up to you.

Now, I've got nothing against this scholarship.

It's a good school, they tell me.

It should be.

It's paid for out of the profits that come from the sweat of on his folk.

It's public in that sense, at least.

I think I should go.

I think I should go.

If that's what you want.

I think I should.

Well, that's it then.

Can I be making that bed?

I've made it.

Oh, I've got the colon.

No, but I will.

That's a lad.

Well.

You want us to go.

I'm glad.

Five years of war with all but one of your lads are wearing your...

You're a funny woman.

It's cost you more than me.

Well, principal.

We shall afford the money somehow or other.

I suppose you think like him down then, that God will provide.

God might think what I think that you've done enough.

Nah.

Nah.

They're all droppings of these.

Wherever that fox is he's not here now.

He'll be around again, though.

And I'll be after him.

That farm where Jean worked the gallways.

I didn't realise it was part of the estate.

Well, I was to your dad, I.

Only tenants we have that don't seem to set with problems of one kind or another.

We'll have to take a run over one of these days and find out how they managed to cope so well.

I was round-arm yesterday.

I'd come back in a mood.

What's up?

I gave her a ring.

She gave it back to me.

What did she do that for?

I told her I'd stop being a Catholic.

She said if I could give up caring as easily as that, I could do the same with her.

But I damn well did it for her.

Contrary women are.

She knows I've been fighting it out with myself for over a year now.

And she never said anything before.

When I finally make the break, this is what happens.

It doesn't make sense.

Oh, a go, but isn't it?

Can I say your dad?

Jack Bassett, Labour Party agent.

Oh, sorry, I didn't recognise her for a minute.

I'll tell him here.

Anti-monicus, anti-classed.

Jack, come into the living room lad.

I can't stop, look.

Is it safe for me to bring somebody to see you on that later this week?

It's safe, but I don't want too many to know about it.

I'd better use that back room at the working men's club.

I mean, you're slipping the back way.

I can't let you know just which night it'll be till I've heard from her.

Yeah.

When she's ready to talk to us, I'll let you know.

Hey.

I'll call around.

I'll call you next week.

I'll call you next week.

I'll call you next week.

I'll call you next week.

I'll call you next week.

I got your letter a week ago.

Why did you say it would be the last one?

It's because I had no letter from you.

They all came back after time.

If I had known.

You thought I'd stop writing?

Yes. I thought you'd given up help.

I'm here to prove I didn't.

I thought you had to possibly marry some nice English girl.

To live as other people live.

How is it in England?

Oh, everyone complains.

As if peace wasn't enough of a prize.

Everyone except those that suffered.

It's heaven compared to all this.

You'll see.

I will see.

I'm going to get you back there.

It won't be possible, my permit will end. I have to go back to the east.

Over my dead body, you will.

You're just like my father was.

When my mother was alive, she used to say, yes, my love to all he said.

Yes, my love.

Yes, my love.

Early in their life, she knew.

He would never accept what she knew was impossible.

He was right.

You know he lived for a year in this room with nothing.

Twice. I was allowed to visit him.

All under table is what he had.

A cup, a pan and a knife.

And his last candy burnt out.

I have to go to the hospital now for his things.

What he wore.

In the old days, we would have passed him.

If not, he's worn out shoes. I think he's not fired you.

I'll come here.

No.

I have to do this on my own.

I will see you here in the evening.

We shall sit and talk as we did in the house where we met.

As I will always remember.

Yes?

Ross said you wanted to see me.

Yes, I do.

Have you seen Father Ross?

No.

Are you going to see him?

No.

You're just going to leave the flock and take to the hills.

I already have.

I realize you're going to find it difficult to accept.

It seems I'm not alone in that respect.

After that incident with Pegg last night.

That's between us.

Yes, yes, of course it is.

No doubt you fully understand how she feels.

No.

Well, that's an honest admission.

I suppose you think you do understand.

I understand completely.

But then I'm in a better position to understand.

She's been seeing Father Ross for the best part of a year now.

She didn't want to become a Catholic simply because of the marriage problem.

She wanted to find out if there were better reasons.

It seems she was well on the way to finding them when you lost yours.

Father Ross told you this.

No, she told me herself.

Lesson and Aragah.

I was faced with a choice.

I'm a poor Catholic father.

No poorer than many of us perhaps.

You're not alone in your doubts and uncertainties.

Lord, I believe helped thou my nonbelief.

I think perhaps I better go and have a weirder.

She's upstairs waiting for you.

I'm not alone.

I'm not alone.

I'm not alone.

Her does not beg it.

She's not coming.

What?

She's on her way back to the east.

Why? I mean we raise a meat here.

She thought it better not.

Oh, see.

If what you think you see is that you had a real choice, you'd better think again.

She asked you to come here.

I said I'd do this for her, providing she'd let me tell you the fact.

She could have told me herself.

Maybe she thought you might persuade her to do what she'd like to be able to do more than anything, I think.

Stay with you.

I'm not alone with you, Mary.

I'm afraid one of the facts is she's married already.

Married?

Yeah, German in the Russian sector, some sort of communist party official quite high up, I think.

That's what she's gone back to.

More than that. A child.

Yours.

She didn't know she was pregnant until we'd pulled back.

Until the Russians moved in.

By the time she discovered her father was in the British zone, it was too late.

She married the German to protect the child.

My child!

You weren't there.

You were at home.

They were living in the dark ages again here in Europe.

You might think you know what it was like, but does imagination really qualify you to know what it was like to shuffle into the gas chambers of Dachau?

He kept it with him to be sure she returned.

Would you have had her do otherwise?

Paper again, Grandad.

Sunday, Vist, I'm Friday.

I have no time to waste talking.

Didn't leave you much time to get changed.

We'd haven't had a way to lead gone out.

Yes, well don't you make it worse or I'll be...

All right, clever clubs, you caught me out.

And I know who's waiting for you in that car out there and all.

Oh, but two and two together. I made it five, did you?

I made it four. So well, I'm at George.

Hi. I'm on his side for once.

If I'd known what your offer was, when you told me you had one last week, I'd have told on you.

After a fate of company, are you?

Like that woman in that play on violence last week.

Yes, I am.

It'll be something for the good cause. I'll give you that.

She'll not be so long now.

I can't see you may have got to make such a damn great mystery out of it.

But soon as she told you herself.

Why me? What about the rest of the selection committee?

I've told you. This personal interest involved.

I can't think what.

Anyway, what's the worry?

Maybe no need for a by-election. He couldn't make the end of this parliament.

I don't it.

A year I give him at most.

He'd expound to marry if he knew that party had lined up a woman to take his place back.

George, look how he did some of skills, made a mark.

She's made herself damned unpopular too.

It's a difficult job. We ration him worse than it was in the war hall.

She's respected for it.

You need a name these days to make a mark. You need somebody that'll get talked about.

I'm not against women in politics. Within reason.

Not like I'm against the way they've started using pubs.

You're out-fashioned, George.

Maybe. That's one of the reasons I very rarely use this club.

I use some of the turns they get in.

Women with screeching voices trying to make themselves heard.

When no one wants to listen. All they want is someone to look at.

While they swap. Someone flaunting a bit of sex.

You're a despair of me on class sometimes when I see what the readers call choke.

I think that might be it.

I'll go and see.

George?

He'll be back in a minute.

But rose by the way, sight growing.

Now to late he understands by his peers and bleeding hands.

And his tears of blowing.

Rose but rose but rose by the way.

Now to late he understands by his peers and bleeding hands.

And his tears of blowing.

Rose but rose but rose by the way, sight growing.

Thank you.

I wish you'd cut your nails more often.

I don't know whether to don them or leave the holes for your toes to poke through.

The ends are still laying well. Look.

Just as well. We're Blake coming home tomorrow. Help me feed him up.

I'll bet he's as thin as a rake after more than a year in Germany.

Yeah well. He ain't like of expected to live off the fact of the land without the starving on and on.

Puzzles me, why you stayed on so long? And the girl he went for left him.

Another of her own accord, as far as his letters are clear.

The Russians.

State of things out there.

Never tells as much does he?

It's a funny lad. He pretends to believe that charity begins at home and then he gives up a year of his life to go and help starving refugees.

As more goes on in his head than he lets on to us.

Like Owen?

Yeah, like Owen.

Though Jean says he's settled enough in the town now, apart from the fact that he'll never go out except to come here.

Winter's on the way. Let's hope it's not like the last.

Hmm. Not forget the start of 1947 in all right.

Look, they'll get mugged up to the eyes.

You've got the sleeping mud sometimes.

When the japs are just working away from the camp.

That's the first time you've said that word, Japs.

All right.

We've got to another first today as well.

First time you've not been back to your mother since we moved.

I'll go tomorrow.

What's laughing at?

You...

don't get a say that your mother's done.

I feel right enough about where we are now.

Now I do.

He's lost his fear of me.

I've seen him now.

You and I.

Me.

He seemed a bit fear of me in a way when I come back.

I went there.

Five years away.

Stranger almost must have seen.

Is it going now? What you feared?

Yes.

Yes, it's gone.

I feared you too.

Fire to sight, air to mind, they said, don't they?

Someone allowed you to get...

dear John letters.

Dear John, I'm sorry, but I've met somebody.

I used to be glad I didn't get letters sometimes.

I guess I got one of them.

Yeah.

Not truly I didn't get them.

Yeah.

Not truly I didn't.

I knew you'd not.

Why would you give me up for a dead?

Towards the end, Eddie?

Easily I said.

Suppose I had written you one of those letters like you said?

I'll live for you out there.

You and him.

I'll live to come back to you.

Hey!

Come on.

You better be getting back.

The dark's in time.

Go.

Breakfast on there.

And call your grandfather, will you?

I've called him twice already.

I'll bet you anything it complains about it being cold when he does come.

Grandad, breakfast!

Where's Dad?

Gone for a walk, you said.

Oh!

Well, Dorsey's wouldn't have dragged him out for a walk at one time.

Not a bit of a rival, have you?

Oh, I've got a rival, all right.

Which Stanton Labour party?

Wanda's Blake got here.

He was catching a late train last night, so it could be any time.

Aren't there any houses in there?

Oh, no.

Longer we've not already looked at.

On there.

Doesn't Marx's father have anything on his estate?

Mark won't ask.

He looks cold.

What did I tell you?

You've got five minutes to eat that.

I want to get washed up.

I've got to get to the shops before Blake gets here.

And I shall want your pension money.

He'll have knout in his pocket.

I'll be bound.

It is voluntary work.

He did it for his keep to help others.

God helps them that helps themselves.

And he's got that card he was doing up to sell.

So that'll keep him going for a bit.

A car's not money.

He should have sold it before he went off.

A right-stated had been in by now if I'd not looked after it for him.

Waste not, want not.

What would we do without you, Grandad?

I'm a lot more used to this family than I'm given credit for.

You think I'll outlive me usefulness, don't you?

In spite of the fact that I put a roof over your own head.

Your breakfast is not a good thing.

I'm not going to get a good drink.

I'm not going to get a good drink.

I'm not going to get a good drink.

I'm not going to get a good drink.

I'm not going to get a good drink.

I'm not going to get a good drink.

I'm not going to get a good drink.

That'll put a roof over your orange head.

Your breakfast will freeze.

Ah, don't want it.

It's cold, any road.

I'll show you.

Grandad.

Waste not, want not.

You say hello, come in.

Ah, thanks.

Thanks.

The best of the party agents said I want to keep in touch with you,

and I've been trying to catch you for months now.

I'm just here from Germany.

I freeze to over cold, isn't he?

Yeah, not as cold as last winter.

Worse this century than said.

January the 1st, we nationalized the mine.

Two months later, we were told there wasn't enough cold to go around.

Come and have some coffee with me.

Thanks.

Rest.

I didn't want to be the first to give in.

I'm blaming somebody out there sailing.

Of course, as deaf as you are.

God, I miss that in Germany.

You're not bored.

You reckon?

Helping the crowds and the rubber and the need.

After five years fighting their sons.

You know why I was there.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm sorry he didn't work out for you.

Am I to come to revolution, sardia revolution.

It owes a proletariat that suffers.

They sacrifice themselves for the future.

Not in their ass, they don't.

I'm not standing here arguing with you.

Not in this weather.

You realize you're going to take the taxi if you haven't spent your last quinpe in my rail, man.

Oh, God, I ain't coming on the quinpe.

Why did I let you persuade me?

I'm 27.

And even if you're not five years off the wall, that's going to think you'll never get me

off his back.

Have you got anything in bank?

Yeah.

As a cardiata was doing up to self, sugar leased a couple of hundred for it.

But now they're the shining examples, are we, eh?

Rose, who's out sailing?

I think she's getting bored with the life of Idonnas after working all through the wall.

You seem to be able to find anything that interests her.

Sugar?

No, thanks.

So...

I, eh, I don't know what, uh, sort of world they expected after the war.

I know what I hope for.

I have to be one of the election in 1945.

My wife, once the old one back again, I don't.

But it might be what we've got.

You think we'll win this by-election if we have to have one?

Oh, a year ago I'd have said there wasn't a doubt.

I mean, the games we made in local elections are legislation that went through the house.

This last window was a setback.

They still want me to stand, are they, you?

Oh, yes, you'll be asked to stand.

I, eh, I know you're not well known in the party, but then, eh, neither was Crips.

And your local connections all count.

The Tory husband, local employer, me standing for labor.

Does he know?

No.

Then we're separated, my life's my own.

You mind if I call you George?

We'll have to learn too soon, or later, any road.

And seeing as how we're going to be in laws.

Has John made no effort to get in touch since Mark and Peg got engaged?

I shall meet him at the wedding, no doubt.

He's a very private man.

How do you make the first move?

I, and I work for him.

He'll want to, perhaps.

What made you want to stand for labor?

What makes you ask?

Well, it's becoming fashionable among the upper crust and people's reasons, interest me.

There might be the wrong ones, you mean?

I'm a socialist in the same logical basis that I'm a Catholic.

It appeals to my reason.

I know now about religion.

New worlds are opening up for all of us.

The world of the bomb.

Living with what we've done in the concentration camps.

And now, in Bevan said, in tribute, the Holy Spirit,

and now in Bevan said, in tribute, the hope of an organic federation in Europe.

I've been all over Europe in the last two years.

I know what he means and why it's necessary, and yet people have such short memory.

He's black home yet, by the way.

And sometime today.

He came over on the plane with me, but he was calling to see you all of a sudden in London.

He's been a godsend to us out there, keeping our old worn-out trucks in the move.

Now, there is an enigma of a man.

I went to war as socialists, believing everything I'd taught him,

and when he came back, he'd join the other side.

Oh, I wish I could declare myself as a candidate now.

It's all his secrecy necessary.

Well, Bess had talked to the wife of the member,

and she believes that it might destroy him completely if he knew that people planning a successor,

even though he knows it.

No!

Oh!

Didn't know we had a visitor.

You know, Mr. Heywood.

Of course.

I hadn't said quent, George.

I do.

And you're dripping all over the carpet.

Oh, sorry.

I'll go and get changed.

Another?

Yeah, thanks.

I'm glad she didn't rush in to marry it when the men came back,

as so many of them did, but I wish you could find some fulfilment in life.

It's a man's world, isn't it, George?

That I resent it, I think I always have.

You'll have to change it, then, won't you?

It's not a trough, you know.

I said it's not a trough.

All right, Grandad.

I'll take it somewhere where it'll not offend you to see me eating it.

Here, I'm sure, Grandad, didn't mean it that way.

I'm sorry, Mom.

Go on, then, flame it.

What a thing to say.

Eating like a pig.

That's enough.

They costs now don't manners.

You spoil them.

I know why it's come back, you know.

Spent up.

That's why he's back.

It's none of your business, whatever it is.

All right, it's none of my business.

None of my business.

Hey, Mom, business, brother.

He's worse than everyone since love it went off to school.

No, I must say, Keir was eating like a starve creature.

I don't think he's been getting much to eat.

His last job packed up a month ago.

What was it?

Lion's corner house.

Somebody in the kitchen washing up, I suspect.

A higher school certificate to wash up.

I had to follow him to three addresses before I found him.

You've flogged his typewriter when you still owed two weeks back rent.

You paid it.

I had just enough left to pay for our joint tickets.

We're both a bit of a letdown, aren't we?

Pssst.

I'm sorry, Mom.

I'm sorry, Mom.

I'm sorry, Mom.

Pssst.

What is it, Grandad?

It's still not at me, are you?

Serve your right if I am, you've got a nasty habit of telling the truth.

It's me age.

What's age got to do with it?

Well, you can afford to share what you like when you're my age and speak the truth.

I've now to lose.

I found something in my chest.

What's wrong with your chest?

No, not wrong with my chest.

In my room, you're gulp.

Four gold sovereigns.

Now, don't say, nay, I've seen put by the love of it.

And Blake had his affordable and Owen.

I mean, his bad books and all.

Owen?

Hi.

I distempered this room for your mother when she went out one day.

Owen came in while I went middle of it.

It's the first time I've seen him come to life since he left the prisoner walkamp.

He raged at me, stamped out, and all.

Nobody sawed him for the hours.

Mm.

The room they lived in when they got married.

It'll be sentiment, I suppose.

A funny thing is sentiment.

Do you know I miss young love it?

Yeah.

Yeah, I suppose you do.

Nobody did a gold fishing in court with me these days.

And I remember.

You and me were great pals when you were a little lad.

I'll go fishing with you, grandad.

I didn't give you four gold sovereigns just so you'd go fishing with me.

No, not for four gold sovereigns.

I don't worry about you. You soon get back on your feet.

Still trying to be a writer, is he?

Seems he is.

I think his typewriter's been in and out of hock a few times.

What was it like where I lived?

Well, I don't want tales. I want the truth.

Down some steps. They call our semi-basement.

Bars in the window.

Light floor.

Bed, a toad, a chair.

Gasring to cook on.

Dirty.

Filthy.

I can't see what's funny about it.

In the circles that Kia moves in, it's the only respectable way to live.

Them starving garrets these days, they live in filthy basements.

What do we do about him?

You feed him up, you send him off again.

What future is there in it? Everybody you talk to thinks it's mad.

Why can't he do a proper job to say?

What he wants.

A hell of a job to swag him to come back for a while.

You think it's right? What he wants?

Maybe he's prepared to live like that for it.

It is.

That's what your father says.

He's right.

They had such hopes for him.

Well, you're a fine-wanted talk.

Singing in clubs help keep love at its school.

As Dad got used to the idea yet.

He won't let me go without him.

It's like I'm in a bodyguard.

As if I'm going to get admires at my age.

I thought he has to fight him off.

Not a tutor.

Your girl in Germany.

Your bluster.

Since Bedom started a tough containment of Russians, the barbed wires got up.

Did the urns get back to Russia, did you hear?

No, nothing more.

How are they? Do you know mine?

I think she accepts now.

I think so.

I think she doesn't.

Acceptance.

Acceptance.

Resignation to be resigned.

To accept what we used to say in the war.

There's no future to it.

Do you?

With this girl?

No.

He worries you, doesn't he?

You'd like to see me married, settled.

That's what mothers want.

Endless care.

Oh, that war.

You can't go on blaming the war forever, Mum.

I'll learn it probably in time.

What you said.

To accept.

The things which make it harder.

Maybe it's better not to know like Owen.

He's safe now, you think, in his ignorance.

Only the goldways know about Gene announced.

The people at the farm where they worked.

He's safe now.

In his ignorance.

Hello, Mark.

Mother?

Ross tells me you're in peg are looking for someone to live.

Oh, we're looking at something she's spotted tonight as a matter of fact.

Well, the stable's fat up at the lake house is empty, you know.

I think peg wants to be near the sand.

I see.

I'll just like it.

I think it's a little bit of a problem.

I think it's a little bit of a problem.

I think it's a little bit of a problem.

I think peg wants to be near the sand.

I see.

Just an idea.

Thanks anyway.

Oh, Robert tells me the goldways barn was on fire last night.

They rang him to snow.

Worried about the insurance.

Whether it's covered by ours or theirs.

Goldways, yes, that's the farm near us, isn't it?

Hargone, see them.

Date for the wedding yet?

January, we thought.

I suppose it's time I met these people.

These people.

Peg's parents.

I was wondering whether to write or call.

I'll leave it to you.

Well, it's time I got back to the works.

We'll do something soon.

You know where I am if you want me.

Well, you're a devil.

The tenants of the farm near us.

Insurance problems.

Hargone, see them in the morning.

Oh, good with you then.

Hey, Cole.

There's Blake coming in.

I look away from the children.

You'd better ask it, huh?

Come on.

Well, if you're in a life, Jackie, for you, you're kidding me.

Thanks, Dad.

You don't want to, do, do you?

How can I say in there, too?

Maybe all right, Blake.

Ah, your fear for him, even so.

Just like your mother when you went off to war.

We don't know, do we?

Men, what it is for you, women?

Not seeing Mark by any chance, have you?

Sorry, Mark, let's date off with.

He's coming over here later on, he said.

Oh, that's all right.

Then I thought maybe you were going to be a little bit more.

All right, then.

I thought maybe you'd forgotten.

After we got up a bit earlier in the morning,

got to go and look at a burn-down barn first thing.

Oh, I hope it's not the one I want Mark to look at tonight.

It's over, Tony. It's Muddis Place.

Galway's.

Well, you used to work.

Yes, I'm here. I'll get it.

I've got a formal language bringing the doorbell.

This for me, I don't know.

That's a matter of fact.

It don't be silly, of course I know who that for.

Welcome home, present.

Something like that?

She's upstairs.

Her thing's at the works.

Finish for the weekend.

Wishing me up at Lake House, now she's back.

Well, I do understand you know that you have to be here when she's at home.

She was always quite hopeless looking at herself.

You mean, really got to stop thinking about her like that.

You do.

It's all such a nonsense.

Us down here, you up there lonely.

Ross!

In here!

You were going to say something else.

Well, marriages sometimes break up because people

find they married someone else, don't they?

They've married the person that is.

Not the person they want them to be.

You were saying I am the velveter.

Underestimating perhaps.

That's more forgivable, isn't it?

Hello, Bob.

Well, are you ready?

No, what's the rush?

Things expected me.

What it is to be young and in love.

John!

You should have told me and you brought us flowers.

Well, come home.

I'll get myself something.

The impatience of youth.

The lad wants his tea.

I love getting for you.

And I'll put these into water.

Come and talk to me in the kitchen.

And stay to tea.

If I'm invited, I will.

Flowers.

I wear a very nice thought.

Very corrupt when you ask me.

Beware of Greeks bearing gifts.

What a suspicious mind you have.

Come off it, Rosie.

You're not that naive.

This is Jesuit upbringing.

You know, I've always suspected him of having a hand in Pec's conversion.

She'd want with Catholic than I am, now.

You resent the fact that you went to Father Ross without telling you, don't you?

The fact that she owes her certainty to him.

Father Ross isn't God.

Oh, by Catholics.

We live with it.

As well as for it.

Those two in there.

Living unnatural lives apart.

Can you wonder there's a compulsion for them both to come together again?

To live a natural life that they couldn't otherwise live without sinning.

A man doesn't want it.

No?

Do any of us really know about her?

Have you thought that maybe it's you that doesn't want it?

Have you thought of that?

Nyeh, don't come here.

I'll meet you there.

I, and say now to nobody.

Write them.

Don't forget, Blake pay for that phone to be put in.

I's got nut left now to pay for to be taken out again, as he.

It's the first time you've seen me on this, any road.

It is come to think of it.

Who do you know on the telephone?

You'll be surprised who I know has got telephones.

I perform my wonders in a most mysterious way.

I don't know. I'm all out of order today. What with Blake and Keir needed to be fed and...

Oh, we won't stay. You've enough on your hands.

You're warning out you about owing going to the go-ways tomorrow.

When you needn't, they won't say anything to them about her and so stop for you.

Oh, I know. It's just that it's there between us. That's silence.

Even if I am being silent because it's better for him not to know.

I suppose it is better, isn't it?

I've always thought so.

Then sometimes I thought maybe it'd be better to tell.

Then I've looked at him and thought, could he bear it?

He couldn't.

That's what you think, wouldn't it?

It's what I feel sometimes when I catch him looking at me.

He puts his hand on me.

As if he needed to touch me to know I was there, to hold him up.

Are you ready? No, it isn't.

I don't see why everybody in this house should expect to eat just when they feel like it.

I was only asking.

Mark's calling for me in a minute. We're going to look at a house.

I'll go in the pantry and make myself a sandwich as you can.

Hello. Are you ready?

Would you mind going out and coming in again and saying something else?

Right. Now you go, you'll win.

I'll see you, Mom. See you, we'll just stop.

You're back, then.

You're back, then?

For good?

If I can make a living to keep me here, I kept up the rent on the yard while I was away.

I'm a car there to sell that at all but done up before I went.

You should get a couple hundred for it, get started again.

After being an old Northfield.

Why not? Somebody's got to get this country back on its feet.

I'd end it nationalize you.

They'd be welcome if they've paid me to compensation. They paid the coal owners.

They'd be taking that gun.

They'll know a sign of us again.

Let's talk about warringtons being nationalized.

Ironworks as well as mines.

Different warringtons that are on the mines.

They'll be related somewhere along the line.

You've had too much for too long around here, are you?

Oh, that's what Dad's always said.

Yeah, but if he had his way, he'd only be another lot runners from London.

Tell us what to do. I'd enough of being told what to do in the army.

Oh, see, it's funny.

Think of it all going on while we were away.

I'm thinking I were dead. Me alive still.

Now I'm here like I've never been away.

Everything's same as it was. After all that.

I am all right, you know.

Of course you are. I am all right.

They told me I was.

I didn't know you were a devotee of George Bernard Shaw.

Didn't you?

You must have pretty well everything is written there. Good pre-war editions.

I hate the cheap wartime paper for anything else precious as books.

I had them when I was at Lake House.

I didn't remember seeing them.

I thought you might find such radicalism in your book shows and balances.

I'll take that, bro.

I can't remember her reading that much at all.

I can. She's to reading the garden hut by the lake in summer. And in winter.

You remember I saw in the room.

I don't think I went there more than once.

There was her reading room really.

You know she never talked to me about books.

Maybe because you always said you know it's buried in one.

I thought Peg was going to catalogue your library by the way.

We decided it might be better to wait until things are more settled.

We decided? You and she.

Because you thought Mark might object.

You've got quite a relationship you two, haven't you? I'd watch it if I were you.

Mark might object.

He might get the impression you're using, Peg, to drag him back into the bosom of the family.

Oh, it's nonsense, of course.

We're in the fonder by her since Mark first bought her here.

I know you have. I'm saying he might get the wrong idea, that's all.

Have you told me about the flat at Lake House yet?

You mentioned that today as a matter of fact.

Cool reception? Predictably.

Mentioned to Peg.

Oh, why may I say something about him passing her?

I'd be careful if I were you. You're not very good at that sort of thing.

What sort of thing?

Can I, Ving?

Daddy.

Don't you think it's time you met the rest of the family?

Yes, I suppose it is.

I met one of Peg's brothers, of course.

The one your mother invagled into her charitable works.

He's home now. Did you ever get that bit for the engine, maid?

Oh, months ago. I'll tell him.

Oh, perhaps you'd tell Peg's father I'd like to meet him.

Of course.

And I'll also say that you're a bit reserved.

I thought I lost all that in the States.

You know the taxi driver's there, call you Bud.

I'll tell him to call you Bud.

I'll have a sale down there in the morning.

I love first light at this time of year.

No, you watch those tides, my girl.

Don't be an old fuss pot. I'm entitled to be.

Seems to be here in a family I've got.

Man and Superman.

Allow me to introduce myself.

Mendoza, President of the League of the Sierra.

I am a brigand. I live by rubbing the rich.

Tana, promptly.

I am a gentleman. I live by rubbing the poor.

Catch him.

Catch him.

A kitchen.

The lounge?

Mm.

This is one of the colors made into a smashing house.

Roof's not too good.

Quite, though.

Unless you happen to be sitting underneath when it falls in.

What's the name of the room?

It's our bedroom.

Oh, yeah.

Possibilities, isn't it?

There's a cottage belonging to the estate coming empty next month.

Where?

Old at Stanton.

I don't like old Stanton.

Actually, it's not a very good cottage.

Which brings us back to this?

Yes.

Yes, well, I see what you mean. I mean, you look at it and see something.

I look at it and I see something else.

What do you see?

Trouble, frankly.

Oh.

Oh.

Sorry.

Oh, well.

Oh, dare I say something or turn up?

In the next two or three years?

There's a flat.

Where?

The lake house next to Father.

Well, you wouldn't want that, though, would you?

I'll take it and see it tomorrow.

It looks sound.

Ah, well, you look well in this, Jim. You and your Mrs.

There's no Dr. Lip Pass 70, would you get it?

It's one of the women all after that that's got to buy it.

You're not Lip Pass 70, you.

You're not Lip Pass 70, you.

You put that in guarantee, will you?

It was only just for Ty when it was started.

We've never been anywhere much.

We've saved every penny we've put to this, do you?

All right.

All right.

I wouldn't do it again.

Make sure for you to come out of that life and let you down.

I never achieved that ambition of mine, neither.

The one I had went on with a little lad.

What was that?

I want it to be a cowboy.

I'll call it trigger.

Trigger.

Unlippo, did you say?

All right.

Done.

And they think I've outlived my usefulness.

I'd like some help in my biography but would you like to go back.

I could see you were in trouble from the house.

It's always sensible to be around here when you're problems.

Who said I had problems?

Tides on the turn.

No!

You can speak to him because it's coming here.

You don't remember where you do you?

I'm embarrassed you're by playing guessing games.

I'm Mark's sister.

Of course.

You said that better convincingly?

We met at your father's house when I was up there many times.

No.

I've been abroad, I only got back here.

Oh, but you're still there?

Yeah, half of me.

Dad, he's got the part you wanted to make for the engine.

You've been waiting till you got back.

Wonder when you could do it.

Ah, you better come up to the house.

He's bringing her in the house.

I'm going upstairs.

I'm not fit to be seen.

Tell him to take her in the front room.

Don't let him bring her in here.

We've been in here lots of times before.

Not at 10 o'clock on a Sunday morning.

Just look at the place.

I'm going.

She takes her as she finds as she's silly woman.

What's the rush?

Blake's bringing Ross Wellington in.

My mother thinks she's not fit to be seen,

so she's gone upstairs to put her tiara on.

It's a little too big for me.

I'll see you later.

Bye.

Bye, buddy.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Well, this must, isn't it?

Let's have a look.

Veeham's chart to Jigory.

Bad for stonifier.

We can see in a leaf.

If I don't mind to break through a wall any time,

it could fit the old lockdown.

What started it?

Now, it's but carelessness.

Useless is that chap I have working for me now.

Not a patch on Ukrainian, a hadir during the war.

And he was supposed to be a prisoner of war.

Prisoner?

I.

I wanted to wear the lass of work, dear then.

But Osmond came home from the japs.

The chief thought we're dead.

Grandad.

See you in Grandad.

I'll hear you.

Oh.

You wanted me, Grandad?

Hi, I do.

You did your job for your keep-your-mother tells me.

Yeah, something like that.

So you'll be a bit short then?

A bit.

Tilly of salt, young car.

Yeah, there's always that.

Well, I'll do it for you.

I've sold it for you.

Yeah.

Yeah, I've got the money here.

Hee hee.

100 pounds.

100.

Hey.

I've done well for you, haven't I?

It was worth a couple of hundred, Grandad.

It's going to cost me more than 100 to get another one and start again.

Pfft.

What, huh?

Does work at the mine.

You're an educated lad.

Oh.

Shame in labor, is that?

No, but the world needs brains as well.

Aspired to nothing better than to toy like animals, do we?

Aspirations are about all I have got.

I feed on aspirations.

But this writing of yours, is there any future in it?

I don't know.

You think I'm wasting me time, don't you?

No, I don't think that.

I can do nothing to help you.

That's what I think.

Well, a stretch of honest, toil might give me something to write about.

Yeah, well, your mother will find it very hard to accept you working at the Iron Mine.

Now, women of her generation know more about the dirt of labor than the dignity.

You stand there to have the washing to do.

If you could find some way of making a see it as a means to a better end.

You see, that's what education is to my mother.

It's a means, it's not an end in itself.

Come on, you can't expect her to share your political views, I'm not even sure she shares mine.

I've never known for a certain which way she's voted.

I love her.

But she makes me despair.

Life's a mix here.

Your mother was a cuddab of me when a man had earned this.

Even more of a mix today, look at our peg.

It's been fixed for me to meet Warrington tonight.

The man that employs me, that represents everything I've fought against all my working life.

What else can I do?

What in God's name am I gonna say to him?

I know we're hard-set to him.

With your sister's happiness in the balance?

She's not a strong girl, you know.

Is she any worse?

No, but you know what Rheumatic Fever did to her art, and it'll not go away.

She's no worse as far as I know, but she'll never get any better either.

Or more can anybody offer her in life?

In life itself.

What's the matter?

Weren't you invited too?

Not this time round. Men only this time.

You mean you get inspected later?

I wish you wouldn't.

Wouldn't what?

Mate life a battleground.

I don't make life a battleground, it just is.

As soon as she married somebody her own kind, more than you, I dare say.

But I like your mark, so I'll live with the other.

That's the spirit.

What is?

You looking down on them.

I look down on nobody here.

It's a difference, that's all.

Oh, I... certainly a difference, all right.

Well, tell me about it some practice.

I've got a concert at Silport Labour Club next week.

Paying to get love at through school.

I enjoy it.

Anyway, nothing comes free.

There with the wedding before long.

God knows where the money for that's coming from.

Well, I'll not be a burden on you much longer, I'll be working soon.

So your father was telling me?

No, he even had to take that on himself.

I've disappointed you have now.

You're as you are.

More like your father than anybody.

Trying to take all the aches and pains of life on yourself.

And where's that washing?

Upstairs, you're not gonna like it.

I love it to do whether I like it or not.

And when you've fetched it, go on cheer your grandad up.

You think it was in was under a pound's down instead of Blake.

There's another that thinks they can put the world to write.

What a family.

Prisoner.

I wanted a weather last week I'd work in here then.

But her husband came home from the jabs.

And she thought what did.

Jack!

You take us off about 9.30.

9.30.

I've asked Ross to pick us up in a couple of hours.

All right with you?

Uh, here's I've got nothing else under that.

Oh, Chuck.

I got your parent, is that all right?

Yes, yes.

Well, to our respective children, I think, don't you, George?

I hope you don't mind.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I hope you don't mind your bringer this far out.

I've been known as part of the world for years.

No, no, I'm glad you did here as a manufacturer.

No one knows me around here.

No, George?

No.

No.

Look.

You've hit your grands.

We better get on there.

You take too many chances as it is.

Oh, the boats are too hander, really.

I can never find a crew.

You found one.

I shall hold you to that.

You may live to regret it.

I'm told I'm unbearably bossy when I sail.

That makes two of us then.

There's two at the pub getting on all right.

I'm picking him up in an hour or so.

I'll tell Daddy you fixed his engine.

I'll send him a bill.

Mommy said he was the one that I was in.

Mommy said he was the one who kept our trucks on the road in Germany, helping with the DPs.

I'm not a charitable institution.

I had personal reasons for going.

Yes, I know.

Maybe you don't mind that you told me.

I think she thought it might help me.

Yeah.

You?

Oh, one of those abortive wartime affairs, you know.

They can't last forever.

These hangovers from the war.

Except that they're all tangled up with the whole damn thing.

And you wonder, will we have a bit free of it?

Prisoner?

I... I... wanted to wear the last word working here then.

But Ospen came back from the chaps.

Try one of these, dear.

She said.

They've tickled your hormones.

Not as good women.

Oh, my God.

There was never much to do with the yanks.

Oh, we had some air in the town before the invasion.

For a buying increase in the population, that ought to be.

Yeah, there were one or two casualties.

Of course, they're completely dominated by the women at home.

Remind me of my father.

Do you ever hear the story when he found a core maker,

running a book in the works?

And he settled a man. You go and fetch your cards.

And the man said...

Well, then said, I'm not running today.

You fetch him your bloody self.

You know that word. Good.

Stanley, I've pined to the sex a little bitter.

I've not done this like yet.

Well, we have no way.

I should be loud more.

Dispositional, I'm separated from my life.

Yeah, I gathered some.

What's hell with the hounder on him?

Well, George, we should do this more often.

This red is first-class stuff.

I'm not going to do this.

I'm not going to do this.

I'm not going to do this.

I'm not going to do this more often.

This red is first-class stuff.

Did you, erm...

hear that other story about your father?

I'm the boiler, man.

Owen hasn't come home.

He didn't come home for his dinner,

and I thought maybe he'd have to stay on at work,

but he hasn't been back for his tea either.

I went out for a minute.

Own it down the road.

I left the door open.

You might be out in the shed with Grandad.

It's a light I'm going to come past, haven't I?

I can't come with you.

Yeah, come on.

I'll, er, go and get me washing.

You know, there was something I thought this morning after he'd gone out.

Look, always might not know him.

Might not know who he is.

What difference?

I was like that when the tide came in.

That little bit of time.

Difference between living and dying.

Gee!

How long have you been here?

There's nobody here when I came.

What's wrong there, Blatt?

Grandad changed the wallpaper.

Yeah.

Yeah, he did.

When I was dead.

Life went home.

When I was dead.

Here.

It's all right, Lovies up here.

Life goes home, don't it?

Where were you?

Go.

Go.

It hurts you, Dad.

You know, don't you?

I.

I know.

I know.

I know.

I know.

I know.

I know.

I know.

Didn't Zalmer stop loving nothing?

Mark's probably describing some of our relatives.

You see, my father literally.

Yes, Mark took me up to the house couple of weeks back when we had to talk about the wedding.

Grandad.

You and Mrs. Haywood don't mind the wedding being there.

The part of his dozen is that the part that wants the best for Peg accepts it.

I'm glad you and Daddy get on.

We still own up as it sides of the fengina.

Does it matter?

That's a question that could only come from your side.

No, no, no. How many is the rest of me, Salf?

You stay here well it's more.

Taught you down the street holding a hanger.

What a bean lad he's grown up to be this sea, has to be on the hedge.

Oh, and he looks going to be the best man mark, Blake.

Very appropriate choice.

Gluten-ed, empty.

Well, that's the lot anyway.

There's more of you than us. It's quality that counts.

I'm sure your relatives are all very nice.

Nice.

What does that mean?

It means he's a snobbing reverse.

Oh, come on.

Come on, will you?

I said I go sailing up there at Rose.

What in this weather?

Yes, it's when the real sailors sail.

Oh Lord, don't you fancy yourself?

Right, let's clear this.

He's so like a horse in order to work on.

He'll do well, Blake. He'll make a go of it.

I wondered when you would have something to say for yourself.

I can remember thinking last winter.

If we can get through this, everything will get back to normal and it has.

Rose seems years away already.

In spite of everything being short still.

You'll not know what to do yourself.

You don't have to queue up no more.

Oh, yes, I will.

Well, care, I'll be home soon.

How about to get his dinner?

I'll help you.

Two more weddings to go.

That's what your mother's thinking.

And you'll all be settled.

They don't hunt weddings, do women.

I hear him, Blake.

They will stop single if they know what's good for them.

Here comes the bride.

Or dinch is why.

Here comes the groom with a face like a moon.

Duh, duh, duh, duh.

Why don't you come on up and say hello?

Well, five of us in yum.

Oh, dear.

I'm not a lie.

I'm not a lie.

I'm not a lie.

I'm not a lie.

You're not a lie.

I'm not a lie.

I'm not a lie.

Well, five of us in yum.

I like the nine well enough,

but I never feel right up there.

You take a check like a duck towards, aren't you?

Officer's mask gave me a taste for it.

It's only skin deep.

Hey, Blake.

You coming?

Hurry up!

There'll be another turning cafe soon, haven't you?

You reckon?

Hey, you've never probably told us about the German girl.

It's all behind me now.

I think they want you.

Come on, Blake!

I'll stop it.

I'll stop it.

They like you to know they're about, don't they?

They're Warrington Planet.

Right here.

Mark isn't like that.

He's in high spallocks, that's all.

So it should be.

Mary and yours is not.

Blake looks set for a merger too.

What price the ties are flesh and blood, eh?

Flesh and blood.

Your grandson in Germany, I mean.

I would just say it out of mind, I suppose.

Right.

Your grandson in Germany.

Well, you knew, didn't you?

You know damn well I didn't.

Derek, you're done.

Hey, Brad.

Yeah, human blood.

Have orders.

You've waited.

I'm sorry.

I have to be careful.

Yes, of course.

Sometimes I give orders that someone who worked for me should be followed.

Above me there are others who also give orders, I think.

My wife is all the time fearing.

Do you understand?

How is her?

She's well.

We are all well in the Russian zone.

The state provides.

How is it linked?

They fear another winter like the last one.

The light's going out.

Men working in their offices by candlelight.

Planning on new Jerusalem.

Thank you.

I'm Kafid Swasht.

Does Hetan know your singer?

No.

I get your name from a letter.

She writes to her.

I steal it from where she hides it.

You see?

Yes.

Perhaps.

Life is different for Germans in the East or in West.

All over German people steal to survive.

I'm not making a judgement.

Judgement.

Judgement.

Who can judge?

It would be gods to believe in God if I could.

Let him who is without fault cast the first stone.

This is what one of you in is right to say.

Christ said it as far as I can remember.

Mind you I haven't had much to do with him since I left school.

Heter would tell him.

We had a few friendly arguments about religion in the house where we first met.

Where Blake and I were visited.

This Blake was your friend.

We served in the army together during the war.

The one who's the father of her child.

I read other letters too.

Tell me about this man.

This is the last letter I shall write to you.

Although in my head and in my heart.

And in our child.

I feel married to you.

We're one of the fortune of you round here you know.

We do have a bathroom.

There's somebody in it when I went up.

I'll eat mucky if you like.

Eat mucky.

What do I think for a gentleman to say?

Gentlemen.

I don't think she's got the message.

I think the way it's gone to her head.

That job getting you down.

Am I not up to it is that what you mean?

You have brought up to study not labile with your hands.

You wish you'd got it to bend the other way around.

I thought you thought the working man was badly done too.

I don't draw a line between working with your head and working with your hands.

Not in that way I don't.

Oh well.

What suits one doesn't suit another.

Owen likes his job.

Working on his own mostly.

Is that what he says?

Oh, it suits him he says.

How is it now between you and Owen?

He says he understands.

That we thought him dead.

The life goes on.

I only wish we'd told him though.

Instead of him finding out like that.

You didn't hear what happened to...

Owen's.

No.

Another one thought dead.

I don't think of that it.

Like Owen says life goes on.

Yeah, life goes on.

That was my dinner going on.

I'll not be warned through you'll have to wait another few minutes.

I went in the other room.

I'll shout you when it's ready.

Eat and muck it.

Hello.

You alright?

What's cold?

I don't know.

Is he vanished again?

We came to out with a wedding card.

What do you think to this wedding?

Well I like your work.

I work with you.

No, I'm peg-turning Catholic.

Not that there's anything to be said for any of the other lot.

Look, you're believing God.

Created by a man in his own image.

He's a sort of Superman to help us out when things go wrong.

Your mum's seeing to it.

Come on, time we were off.

What's cold?

On the beach where he always is.

There's no harm in it.

Oh, well.

Draw.

See you.

Thank you.

Draw.

Draw.

Oh, I'll follow you.

See you, Dad.

Hey, don't take my paper with you.

Oh, sorry.

I'm always last to get to read it as it is.

Don't tell me, Paul, or someone.

I'm teasing.

Jim says he's taken it all right and known about her in the Ukrainian.

What do you think?

Why should I think any different to her?

It's the change in him I can't get used to.

I know he was before the war.

It's a booking library written by a bloke who was the prison of the Japsim as I was.

I read a quarter way through and took it back.

I couldn't bear to be done.

The wonder is that he's still alive.

Not that he's changed.

But you.

You haven't changed much, have you?

Me?

Drop him brick some people.

Telling me of a grandson in Germany, is it true?

Well, you don't think I'll invent a thing like that, do you?

I mean, you used to before war or anything to cause a stir.

Well, you'd have to ask Blake if you don't believe me.

Yeah, well, I'll have to ask him now you've brought it up, won't I?

It's me duty to ask him.

Call him!

Colin! Colin will you, Conda!

No, Colin, I'll call you, don't come here.

Get down!

You heard me calling for you, didn't you?

What do you think you're doing up there?

I don't know, I've seen a lot.

How many times have I told you it's dangerous round here?

And when you hear me calling it, you call me a calling!

Jane! Jane! No!

No more.

God's sake, Owen, it's dangerous round here.

Why can't you understand that it's no good just telling him?

Sometimes he just needs a wallop.

I'll have to go.

You do realise I'll have to be going by the time you get in.

There's always a moon.

I like to see what I'm doing.

You just don't like my boat, before that old wreck of yours.

Rick!

I'll tell you.

That's a bloody good boat.

Oh well.

I might be enough sitting here.

Fine.

Flinking of saving, eh?

Only thinking.

Blake.

Take us and set anything, but I know she'd love you to go and look at the flat.

Ah.

Well, okay.

Back in a minute.

Robert tells me there's some storm damage in the windows upstairs.

I don't think George is completely happy about the wedding being here.

He bowed to Prakta Kalata, you mean?

You see, why we have to hold down relatives of ours?

I'll do not speak to each other, anyone.

I don't want people to think we're running away, eh?

It's not fancy.

From the hell hearted approval to the marriage of my son, the daughter, one of my wages class.

What do you do, Prue?

I want to be seen to approve.

By the family or by mummy?

She's in Germany again, isn't she?

Oh, don't worry. She'll be back for the wedding.

What's she gonna do with her life and there aren't any refugees to work for?

Will the day ever come?

She seems I'll be radical these days.

Took me to task the last time I saw her.

I was in criticism, I met her happily.

Came back and we were some very sharp political comment.

I shouldn't she be radical?

I'm not, but it's a free country.

She said she wasn't before the war.

Oh, back and taken?

No, I know what you're going to say.

I shouldn't think of her as she was before the war.

I suppose she got these ideas from that fellow.

She won't say he was involved in politics.

One of the rare occasions he's been mentioned.

I suppose that's how she met Morrison in that lot.

How about Morrison?

Labor now?

I don't know.

What a hope regardless of his throat around too much of the wedding.

Especially if your uncle he was there.

I can remember him telling me about the first days in the house after Labor came to power.

Are they saying the red flag?

The torus set their opal thinking the revolution would come.

Thank God you find it amusing.

Well, isn't it? Isn't it exactly what we needed to shake us out of our damn lawful complacency?

Probably.

This friendship between you and Big Brother.

That's exactly what it is.

A friendship.

Oh.

Disappointed?

I'd like to take the haywoods over, would you?

I like them enormously as a family.

But they're not Catholics, is that it?

Well, he doesn't strike me as the type who'll come over to us as big did.

I don't suppose he is.

I'll stop worrying about me, will you?

Been through all that before.

Well, something similar.

I'm not likely to want to go through it all again, I'm not.

When's the furniture going?

When I finished choosing it.

It's difficult. There's just so much to choose from.

Been going around the house with him, have you?

Oh, Mark, don't.

Don't be sour.

I like him. That should be good.

You like him because he spoils you to get at me.

He spoils me to please you.

To ingratiate himself.

That's not a nice thing to say.

I can see his study window from here.

Anyway, I don't want to think about him.

I'd pretend we're a million miles away.

You did it for me, didn't you?

Accepted this flood.

Yes, of course I did.

And it wasn't easy, was it?

No, it damn well wasn't.

Ben, I owe it to you, not to him.

There was no real effort for him.

So thank you.

I love it.

We're going to be happy here.

Misery guts.

Oh, don't be stupid, balloon head.

It's too much for him, isn't it?

Mom?

Labour, not the hand works.

It means to an end to end his living.

Well, he feels his way towards what he does he really wants.

Too ripe. That's not a real job.

That's what he wants, it's an his end.

He won't be moved from it.

A family of donkeys, that's what we bred.

We're all late starters because of the war, that's a pity of it.

Has Blake told you anything about this woman he met in Germany?

Precious little. That's another thing they are, secretive.

Secretive, donkeys, eh?

Donkeys, eh?

Donkeys, eh, isn't all.

How can you keep with a racket like that going on?

Grandad!

You're obviously a man of some consequence in the Eastern zone.

Why should you be afraid?

You have no such fears?

I'm a nobody politically.

In my world it is the nobody who will survive.

The Communist and Socialist parties were united in our zone last year.

Sovis wished it so.

Decidants were approached.

I believe with Marx that the state should wither away at each day it grows in power.

Starling rose.

Is it all he wanted from me?

To know about Blake?

Just a man curious to know the father of his wife's child you think.

If there's anything I can do.

You will see me again.

Yes, if you want me to.

In some weeks I will come again. If...

When I come again I bring with me my wife.

Can you take her to England?

Come on!

Yes, come on!

Yes, come on!

Come on!

No, no, no!

No, no, no!

Come on!

Come on!

Come on!

Yes, come on!

Yes, come on!

Yes, come on!

Come on!

Not a very good idea!

Mother!

What are you doing here?

I've come for your wedding tomorrow.

I mean, why aren't you over at Whit Stanton at the house?

Well, I call to see your father.

Might have been a better idea if you said at the house instead of holding your stag party here.

Oh, father said he'd send someone over to clean up.

You spending the night here?

I don't feel fit to drive actually.

But since you're here, I'll come home with you, I think.

What do you think to the place?

It's rather grand, eh?

Father said Peg could have anything she wanted from the house.

Oh, that was good of you.

He likes to be liked.

Especially by Peg.

He's charmed her.

She thinks he's a remarkably nice man.

He's right. He is a remarkably nice man.

Not nice enough to keep his wife on the straight and narrow.

You have obviously and inevitably had too much to drink, so I forget you said that.

I'm sorry.

I wasn't in any way hitting it, you.

I knew who you were hitting up.

And you're wrong.

What have you two been doing over there?

Talking over old times?

Forgetting the bad times, remembering the good.

There were times we lived through that's all.

And this is a time when somebody we brought into the world was existence we're responsible for.

Begin to life of his own.

I began that a long time ago at school.

It lights out.

Ah, so that's the crux of the complaint, is it?

That we sent you away to school?

I didn't know what a family was until I was a little bit old.

I met the hills.

It wasn't you, it was you.

It was both of us.

It was what we were brought up to believe.

I believed it then too, just as I believed the earth was round.

But possibly flat.

Nobody could ever convince your grandfather that it was round and I loved and respected him.

I just don't happen to believe in such schools any longer.

He does.

I don't know whether he does or doesn't.

But isn't it the circumstance of his belief at the time the alleged scene was committed to camps?

You're a real Catholic, aren't you?

Oh, I wish I was.

I'm only a Catholic because of PEGNA.

How remarkably young you are for somebody who's seen so many die in a war.

War doesn't mature as even does it?

I think I'd like to go home now.

Come up and slow, court.

I thought you said you could run.

I thought you said you could run.

I'm the old witch of the hill and I've lost my broomstick.

Now I've got you.

Now I've got you.

Right, that's it.

Come on, let's go back.

Oh, come on.

You don't know.

Now, can you get all mucked up?

Can't your mum be mad?

We've got to be the church in a minute.

Call!

Yes, thank you. Well, everything seems to be all right here.

I suppose we had to have it here.

We're future father-in-law's into understand, except my reasons.

You did have the option, you know.

You don't imagine I attempted to dragoon him into it?

I think we're probably persuaded there was the fact that PEGNA wanted it too.

She said so?

What a lovely place for a wedding she said.

Anyone who stands for bravely the edge of life she deserves

whatever can be given her.

I don't need you to tell me something like that, father.

I wasn't telling you so much as reminding myself.

I'm glad you're metting, PEG.

I know some of the people who work for me.

The medic opened my eyes to a certain extent,

made me aware of how class-red and the society we are.

I don't think the wars made all that difference.

And I don't think this government will survive clearing up the mess.

But perhaps we're building a small bridge today that might help in the future.

Oh, it's very nice.

I think I'd better go and check that I've still got the ring.

Ten minutes.

Yes, I know.

I'm beginning to feel a failure in this post-war world, Beth.

Mark?

We don't even begin to communicate.

He's very young, in many ways.

Yet you see, men die.

I teared him last night.

War doesn't even mature, people.

I just made him rather a pompous speech about building bridges to help in the future.

We're a very busy woman these days.

Yes, I suppose I am.

Well, what you're doing, you enjoy it.

It's what you want.

It'll do for now.

And, uh, went over?

I shall do something else.

I'm so lonely, there's damn house, Beth.

I was happy here before the war.

Were you?

I suppose I was doing away.

I would like to see around the ironworks, sometimes.

The works?

In all the years we were married, I made one visit to the offices.

Is a woman supposed not to be interested in her husband's work?

Wouldn't it?

No.

What about, what about, of course not?

You won't mind my coming, then?

Of course I won't mind your coming, I...

I'd be delighted.

I do have a reason.

It's all a bit mixed up just now.

We'll talk later.

Mom, you two don't leave it until last minute.

I'll see you at the car.

You're looking pleased with yourself.

Am I?

Don't lose sight of that dream you have.

Dream?

It was all being a family again.

On a day like this I could begin to believe in miracles again.

Alright.

Yeah, what's that if you like it, yeah?

You look good in a sack.

Most of it's made from your cool pinge, you know?

I thought it looked familiar.

Mom says, can you come and have a word we grand now?

He's decided he's not going.

Not good.

Mate and kid put him in a white shirt and he's got ripped all day back.

Get out of the way, is he then?

George, will you come and speak to your father?

He'll be right enough as long as he keeps his jacket off.

You'll let your mother to send some money and come and sell.

Oh, you lovely kid.

Be off in a minute, eh?

I can remember you, I think.

Can you?

Not long been out of hospital.

I'm an ardramatic fever that left me with this silly heart.

It's a grand out.

What's your lifetime?

Hey, come on, what have I said?

It's not you.

I should have more sense making jokes at a time like this.

It's all right.

All right.

Sure?

Yeah.

Here.

Use my towel.

Oh, Owen.

Get back.

Just let your word be for the war.

Oh, it's laughing.

Making jokes.

Zero.

Zero.

You've got me, Auntie.

What happened to your face?

Oh, don't fuss, Mum, please.

It's like the Colorado desert.

You've never seen the Colorado desert.

Come on, after you go, the cars wait, Tim.

We'll get a straight note.

I can't leave her like that.

Give no option.

You'll hold up the entire works if you don't get off.

Don't you think I'm going to get off?

I'm going to get off.

No option.

You'll hold up the entire works if you don't get off.

God bless you.

Come on, Mum.

I shall hold you responsible.

Now I'm responsible for the entire Colorado desert.

What was all that about?

Oh, just me and the day.

I won't hurt you, have I?

Maureen or Werenton?

Only one thing in your life could hurt me.

But you shouldn't be happy.

I am.

Oh, I am.

Here you go.

Don't you start irrigating that desert again and you'll get me shot.

Perhaps you are still writing to me, but you let us do not reach me, so I do not know.

This is the last letter I shall write to you.

Although in my head and in my heart and in our child, we are married.

I am not in love with my husband, but I do care for him.

However, it is you to whom I feel he married.

I long for us to be together.

I cannot live from words on paper, and so I shall not write again.

We must live as we can.

As we can.

Following your attention

Oh, please.

Your attention, please.

Please be upstanding.

A toast?

The bride and groom.

The bride and groom.

All right, this is good.

It's a pair of good little mugs.

I think this is going to my head.

That would have grand spread that one.

Where have I did the get the coals for?

Points of a poor people more.

Oh, here we go.

Don't do dare.

I didn't even cross word.

We're being watched.

Where's my hair?

You.

Hey, where's Uncle Ted?

Let's stock him over there in a corner.

Oh, but he doesn't get his jews up out.

He usually does about that.

Oh, stop.

Oh, no.

You're not a boy.

No, he's a woman.

I'm a woman.

I'm a woman.

I'm a woman.

There's another chapter code.

Oh, no.

He's an orphan.

No, you're not going to go around.

In the long run, you're making a road for your own bank.

He's an orphan.

You're looking good, but never is a man.

Any for them?

You were miles away.

I think I'm going outside.

I'm getting close to Fort Bay in here.

Come with you.

I'll solve this fire line, Alf.

Last night, was there anybody?

I couldn't tell if people came and went.

I imagine, do you think?

No.

When we spoke on the telephone last time,

you said there was someone who would get my wife to him.

Yes.

Could we meet you in one hour?

Two.

Two would be easier.

She's here?

She would be here at the time.

And the boy stays with you?

There is not other way, only if the boy stays with it.

Trust her to cross the border.

And you?

She'd become alone, so I'm not involved.

She'll leave the boy.

There is not other way.

To be brought up in what kind of world?

The world they provide for us.

They will give us what they wish us to have and take from us what they wish.

As they emptied our factories of the machinery by which we would live.

The Spiles of War.

Children also had seeds of the Spiles of War.

Yes, and we know where that started, don't we?

Their bones were used to make fertilizer in the concentration camps.

You wish me to feel guilt?

No, I'm not running a confessional, I'm not a priest.

That was against the Nazis.

That's what they're all saying now, isn't it?

You were against the Nazis and for the Russians.

And now you're against the Russians.

You English?

What do you know?

I do this for her, you know.

She thought I would not let her go.

She cares little for me, I think.

Oh, no, for the boy, it seems.

Yes, yes, we English.

We do not know.

I wrote to Blake.

After you came the last time, I told him there was a possibility we could get her out.

I heard from him last week.

What has he said?

That if she can't bring the boy to, she should stay.

The boy will need her.

He will not have her then without the boy?

Oh, yes, he'll have her.

You see, living in England, he doesn't know that there are sometimes circumstances not easy for him to understand.

I told her that after her, after a time will come the boy.

Yes.

How much time?

Who knows? Who knows how much time?

He sent this letter.

I will give it to her.

I'll be here in two hours' time.

All the damn walls aren't in Germany.

Not damn well extinct over here, is it? Have you believed?

Then go to a place called Luceau-Rig, if you ever get the chance.

The word means lupino, French or something.

No walls in France, I shouldn't think.

The place is too damn civilized.

Excuse me, please.

But of course, men.

Do come beating for me sometime, hey, what if Warrington can spare you?

I'll let you know when.

Of course, climate trees now. It's close and ruined.

Oh, it'll be all right.

And I think he's stuck. He can't get down.

He's stuck. He can't get down.

Yes.

Beth Warrington.

Tom Poster.

Come and talk to me, damn you.

I was looking for you.

I saw you say now of college.

He's a brave man. You're husband, invited one of Atley's majority to his son's wedding.

Even if I am already in a significant backbencher,

I see his crawl in the torus.

Oh, I wouldn't call you insignificant.

Wouldn't you?

I'm not that much using this thing, am I?

Anyway, I shall be out of it next week.

You will?

Disappointed.

Disappointed, undelighted, of course. What an awful thing to say.

But then, there's something I know that you don't know that I know.

You come with me.

Come on, stop me out. Don't move.

Oh, come on. Just swing there.

Not my fault. They were the ones that told me to do it.

Never mind. They're going clear off.

Come on. Put your foot down. Come on here.

You're a c'mon.

Come on, call yourself. I'll catch you.

That's right.

Now you're the one.

Come on.

Right now, I've got you. Come on. Down you come.

That's it.

Thanks, Dad.

Oh, cool. Look at your clothes.

You've got two buttons off.

Luke at you.

Luke.

Luke at it.

Luke.

Luke.

Luke.

Luke.

You've got it.

Luke.

Luke, Luke.

Luke, Luke.

Let's go.

Oh, the hell?

Get back.

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

No!

No!

No!

No!

No!

No!

No!

No!

No!

No!

No!

It was you who nominated me to take your place, wasn't it?

Well, I gave you that idea.

My woman is in tuition.

And I've seen you watching me out of the corner of your eye with the German committee, mate.

I'm not quite ready to pack in yet, you know.

I should hope you're not.

Getting excited, though, aren't you?

I can wait.

Well, that is all of them all together.

The cabinet.

Diversity of talents.

Oh, my God, last winter was a setback, though.

Poor Manish, you know.

P.D. in socks and his walls.

A lot of people expect Jerusalem on a platter.

They won't accept that it has to be worked for patiently.

Some travelers are worse than the Tories.

Do you read Orwell's corresponding tribune, backmarks of infiltration?

Zilly Arcos.

How well do you know George A. Wood?

Very well. Now we're related, of course.

I think much more I can do to get myself better now in the constituency,

and it's all made official.

I've asked John to let me look around the ironworks and ask the uncle Hugh about the mine.

John doesn't know, does he?

That you're likely to stand for the constituency.

I can't tell him, can I?

Well, it's difficult.

Yes, it is.

And not just John.

The Warrington is generally small atomic bomb.

Yes.

No chance of getting you two together again, I suppose.

Or else we'd like it.

What would you like?

I honestly don't do.

I get lonely.

But my private life, what there is of it, he was in there, wouldn't he?

No, I don't know him all that well.

What I know I like.

And your Catholics, what sort of a life would you ever part?

Gilt written if you're straight from the straight and narrow.

Like you were with Peter Fraser.

Oh, yes, I knew.

Paul, do you respect to him now?

He only opened the door anybody could have opened.

Oh, George!

Where an island amongst this lot you and I, an island.

Aliens.

We may as well go now, I think.

All right, back to Mosbroose.

I didn't know why.

I suddenly couldn't see them go.

The sight of so much happiness?

I didn't despise happiness.

My God, I didn't.

I wasn't what I was saying.

Love's an illusion.

I keep telling his son.

Even an illusion's a reality for the one who has it.

More Catholic double talk?

Well, at least I've got that.

What keeps you afloat?

Refusal to sink.

You should try it, could have his undies room.

I don't need temptation.

I only hang on because gods let me go.

Lost cheap?

Oh, yes, I'm lost, all right.

Lost in a war.

Both of us then.

You know what my mother's always saying?

Trouble shared is a trouble heart.

Is it?

It might be worth finding out.

Nothing could be worse than this burger, did he?

See, using your words already.

Nothing in common.

It's saying.

Keeping afloat?

TED

Oh, it's a lovely house.

Nice lad.

All we could have dreamed of for a...

Some socialist you.

Not to live in world as it is.

No, it's not.

She shouldn't have children, not with her heart.

They're no.

They don't take care.

They have to do those.

Well, they have their own way of things.

Child comes before mother at birth.

What's all they say?

There's no we can do about it.

There's a multitude.

You can't find common.

It's been really hard.

Apparently, according to some kids.

No, you stay here.

You stay here.

You stay here.

Dad?

Dad?

Dad?

Dad?

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

This is a story of the Cumbrian coast, where the harsh realities of industry are set between

Atlantic beaches and the rolling fells.

A story of two families, the Warringtons, Catholic, owners of the Iron Works, and the

Haywoods, dependent on the works for a living.

But at the end of World War II, class differences are breaking down.

Mark Warrington and Blake Haywood meet in Germany, the public schoolboy is the sergeant,

the worker's son, the officer.

Blake falls in love with a German girl, Herter.

Later he learns that she's born him a son, but married an East German.

Back in England, Mark Warrington meets Peg Haywood at the Victory celebrations.

Other members of the Haywood family return from the war, Kia, the aspiring writer with

Marxist leanings, Owen, from a Japanese POW camp, haunted by his experience and a stranger

to his own son.

The Haywood's family life offers Mark something he never knew in his own childhood.

Across the barriers of class and religion, Mark and Peg fall in love.

John Warrington is separated from his wife Beth, who found a new life and new political

views through war work in Germany.

Their daughter, Ros, in spite of the strictness of her religion, now finds herself attracted

by Blake.

Mark and Peg get married, but a heart weakness means she shouldn't have children, and her

new religion, Catholicism, forbids contraception.

During the reception, Owen, who was at last beginning to win his son's confidence, was

overcome by his memories of the war and thrashed the child for a minor offense.

In despair of the future, he hanged himself.

Thank you, Mason.

Keep yourself warm, gennet.

Hi, I will.

Mom, in here!

I am where Jim is blowing this way today.

I can taste it when I woke up.

I passed you away here.

You've gone too far when it dawned on me.

You're not mine, if you like walking along the beach.

That's all.

I like sis.

Scr

I'm ready.

Where's Keir?

Where do you want me to drop you, Dad?

Your yard will do.

I'm by going up the lake to pick up my work, mate.

I'll drop you in town.

I didn't know you were doing well enough to take on them.

Mm.

Come quiet.

Not for long.

I won't like working overtime.

Another in love with the yard.

And your father looking for the promised landing committees if it was a sound.

And they all come in when they feel like it's saying, where's Mitty?

As if all I've got to do is wave me one.

Jump in, yeah?

Ironworks, is it?

Alright.

Oh, if my daddy's dying me a car.

It's dangerous.

It's dangerous.

It's very dangerous.

It's so rare.

Every time we come past you jump up there, no no no.

No.

No more.

It's no good just telling him.

Sometimes he just needs a whirlock.

Stop.

Stop me, Dad. Don't move.

Answer.

Thanks, Dad.

Oh, look at your clothes.

There's two buttons off here.

Look at the back.

Look at it.

Look at it.

Luke!

Can you see it?

Well, Luke!

Luke!

Luke!

Luke!

Luke!

Luke!

Dad?

Dad?

Dad?

Dad?

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Morning.

She's still in bed.

Luke!

Just call up the stairs and there's some coffee in the kitchen if you don't mind waiting.

I was bred to it.

That's where I placed my trust.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

What does it feel like to own that lock?

I don't own it. My father does.

You work for him, don't you?

Yes.

You run as a state.

Yes, and I could have been next in line here if I'd wondered.

What put you off the look?

I can't win with you, can you?

It was a black day for you when I married Peg, wasn't it?

It's not impersonal.

I envy you, you know?

Oh.

I wonder if you would have envied me if things had been reversed.

We shall never know that, shall we?

See you.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

That's where I placed my trust.

She said.

Guild?

I thought that was mine, as he is.

Must be catching.

She expected me to be a bother approach.

She wasn't, and she's married.

Do as I say, not as I do.

She does know me record.

I'm Paul at laugh, German bastard in the world already

because of me.

And what you think can even he grows up?

His mother will tell him that he wanted to marry her,

and then the Russians came between.

And she...

Maybe.

What would you do if she came to England?

Her does married.

And if she was free?

Why don't you ask me when I do a view of free?

I am.

Of your religion.

I want to talk about my religion.

I thought women liked to talk about their complaints.

You won't become a Catholic.

You won't let me bring that his allowance with me.

You know, more free than I am.

Chain to pride.

Slave to that yard.

I can work my way out from there.

But not lying here, I can't.

Want me to come with you?

That's why I gave me this morning, but I do not.

Get fed up there, me.

Come on, then.

Your letter reached me after a long time, as always.

Yes, my husband gave me the letter which waters gave to him.

Almost a year ago, the letter in which you asked me to stay with our son.

As much as I wanted to come, I would not have come without him.

You should know that.

He's like you, our son.

And he reminds me.

I have given him the medal which you sent to me, but I did not tell him who it is from.

Or is gone.

Is gone.

I've been going to the market, especially in winter.

Seeing the traders dumping their feet to keep warm.

Cracking and running.

Running.

Running.

Running.

Running.

Running.

Running.

I used to like going to the market, especially in winter.

Seeing the traders dumping their feet to keep warm.

Cracking jokes.

All the people's faces glowing.

Woman friendly.

Don't you go no more, then?

I started to feel people were watching me, talking about me.

There's that stucco, Hayward last that married Warrington Brass.

People, you should take no heed.

What are you doing with that? Give it to me.

Give it to me. I can darn it.

She forgets.

She's aged since I wrote and died.

I and your dad's age too.

Where's that gone?

General Management Committee.

It sounded like one of his committees, any road.

Labor lot.

There are afternoon paces.

Tom Posters one foot in the grave they reckon.

I miss this fire.

There's a tater for you.

It's an odd sort of choice.

It was unanimous.

What about Ainsko?

Not like.

And me?

Oh, a gentleman of the best sense of the word, somebody said.

Oh dear.

There's one thing I have to ask, John.

About you and Beth.

Are we going to stay separated, you mean?

You can tell me to mind my own damn business.

The office still stands.

I'm pretty sure we should get together again soon.

Good.

As young Mark, I must tell you.

Mattering that labor man's daughter, can it not wait?

You see, we need a new concept.

A party of the people, not just one particular class.

Break down the barriers.

Not a many damn county types in the party.

No. No, please.

Good luck, Bert.

Hello, Tom.

Hello, Tom.

John, I don't know what you're up to yet.

Nope.

There seems to be any point in presenting here with a theoretical situation.

If you're not selected here today, you will fight for labor elsewhere.

Nobody's asked me to.

If they do.

No, I didn't.

Tom, if I were younger, I'd have no doubts.

And if my marriage weren't bendable.

Is it?

It might be.

It seems to take me more seriously these days.

He wants to talk.

Aye, and you?

I escape into trivialities, like he used to do.

And if you are chosen today.

It's going to be a trauma for him, isn't it?

How long will I have?

I thought I'd leave the scene, you mean?

I'd like to go back to Germany for a few days, see my refugees.

Prague too.

I died of hell of light, now that Mazelik's dead and the communists are in.

I don't think he killed himself.

I want to ride in a chunker.

Lou Prague and say I don't think much of our present government.

They murdered him all right.

The general management committee better.

It'll make a 10 minute speech.

Love to be a fly on the wall.

I thought it'd explore me.

Is it not enough to life these days?

That's better slips.

I happen to know what I'm doing, thank you.

You look pretty hard to find a woman who passed her vehicle maintenance course with flying colors.

And even harder for one with your, Shese?

I don't even sound too useful.

Like the song says, who are made for each other.

Which song?

Every damn song.

Sentimental of that.

And I've been through all that before, haven't we?

Two other people.

We put all that sentimental rubbish behind us.

Along with politics.

Religion.

Religion, I said.

I heard what you said.

A bit like your brother, aren't you?

Thanks, Avidimni Agony, by becoming a Catholic.

Marriage of true minds.

Rubbish.

It's all rubbish to you, isn't it?

What do you want, Ross?

I said I'm not content with what I've got.

A work in relationship.

That's how you see it, is it?

If they select me, it'll be to some extent because I'm a Tory defector, right?

Yeah, that's right.

And they also like the fact that your markers married our peck.

All the wrong reasons.

Earth, concentrate on your speech.

I wish they didn't wake up all the interviews.

I'd sooner have got it over all at once.

Local tradition.

We got our own way of doing things around here.

I thought women liked making speeches.

Not this one, I assure you.

Excuse me.

Biddabra Hinton, don't you think, Tom?

Oh, woman in a man's world.

I like to see her win, man.

I just wonder how much she wants to.

One's good.

Get the feeling she'd like to give her a marriage another try.

Not like her's these Catholics, George.

Can't so easily take up another option, start again.

It's a hard religion.

It'll maybe the right too many marriages are breaking up these days.

It's not surprising.

Men coming back after four or five years away, virtual strangers.

Lost camaraderie of war.

Oh, Tom.

Still?

Your lads are all right.

This is Blaze.

Yes?

Jack has made a comeback.

He's sitting here with his snack.

He's all right, aren't he?

Yeah, he's in a good job, that's all.

Well, he's medicine's in there as well.

I bring it myself because I can't just take it if I don't.

I'll see you, Tex, I'll let him up there if he's awkward.

No, he shouldn't be doing overtime.

He's all right.

He's makes keep an eye on it.

It's a carry on, didn't it?

He's talked about you.

You don't remember me, do you?

Mm.

It's coffee's class, I love this street.

That's right.

It's going back a bit.

I'll have to go.

Come around to see us.

Jack, sit here, go around.

Mm, yeah, we do.

Oh, come around.

Yeah, yeah, we'll then.

Right.

This is Warrington.

Will you come in now, please?

Will you come in now, please?

Earlier this year.

Some of you may have seen a photograph in the newspapers.

It was a photograph of the Emperor Hirohito, a kind of God to the Japanese.

Against whom I was fought during the war.

And at whose hands so many of them suffered terrible cruelty.

In this photograph, we saw him stripped of his kingly trappings, wearing a lounge suit.

He was making his first ever visit to a factory.

Behind him the older Japanese spectators bowed low.

Didn't dare to raise their eyes, but the young stood up.

And some of them even smiled.

There was hope in that photograph.

The war has changed my life, too.

A woman.

A member of a privileged class.

As the barriers broke down, never perhaps completely, but enough for you and me to take in something of what life was like on the other side.

We smiled at each other, chatted to relieve the boredom in those awful trains, smoked each other's cigarettes.

We worked together as equals, uniting we lost our chains.

A relief in that breakdown of conventions.

In feeling oneself a part of, instead of just a part.

Attitudes I had carried around with me for years fell away.

I felt free.

And my poor friends in the Tory party.

My poor friends.

I wish that they too could lose their chains.

Well, I don't think anyone expects an immediate answer, John.

After all, you've got the ironworks to run and this state.

I'm not totally against what Atlas Government is doing.

But I doubted we'd have done them differently, that's all.

There'll be a few raised eyebrows on the executive council if you take that line.

A majority of raised eyebrows?

Well, there you are. You know it and I know it.

Why run away from the truth?

It's been to a van in the outside of the balance sheet.

The uncertainty of nationalization.

They seem determined to nationalize your industry, John.

Yeah.

Morrison said in the House last month that he'd have to invoke the guillotine to pass the bill.

Well, it's the dying government.

Oh, yes.

Their old men wanted to see Jerusalem in their time and flogging themselves to death in the process.

It's taken them until July of this year to get the health service going.

The Bebben had yield to the doctors on status there, didn't it?

They're not civil servants yet. Thank God.

Lower than verminy callers.

I think it hurt the Labour Party more than it hurt us.

See, I'm not totally uninterested in the proposition.

No, I'm not.

I have no real political ambition.

But I care very much about preserving an alternative.

That's all it would be in this constituency.

Well, general elections, at least the other way, about postures as a sick man.

I shouldn't be surprised if we didn't have a bi-election before many months or not.

When would you need to know?

End of the month, bit too soon?

It's not his mark.

Oh, sorry, I didn't realize it.

No, I'm just going.

You won't remember me, would you, Mark?

Major Robinson, isn't it?

I don't use the major now, old boy.

Too many deskbound John is flogging their wartime titles as it is.

As if we'd won some sort of game.

End of the month, alright?

Yes, yes.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

It was day for Christmas.

Yes, we'll be here.

I'll find it.

Bye, Morris.

Chairman of the local Tories, isn't it?

Robinson?

Yes, yes, yes.

My old job before the war.

He was asking about you.

Surprise you, hadn't followed me into the works.

Maybe I should have.

And not much damn use on the estate.

What makes you think that?

It seems to be your manager's opinion.

He didn't actually say so.

Hardly dare, would he, bearing in mind the family connection?

I've always found Robert straightforward enough.

Well, it's obvious, we mean.

But I thought you liked the work.

Well, I did.

At first.

I miss Owen.

Yes, yes, he was good, chef.

Robert spoke well of him.

Couldn't understand.

Hardly inaudible, was it?

After what he must have survived in that Japanese prisoner of war camp.

Perhaps that's what he didn't survive.

It's more to do with his wife, I think.

What?

She got involved with the Ukrainian during the war.

Oh.

Mark.

Your mother may be coming back here to live.

She said so.

Well, not in so many words, but I think she may.

Now, don't be too disappointed in her.

Maybe she fears what I fear, would I?

Sometimes, find myself fearing.

The thought of growing old alone.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Stop it.

Stop it.

You could hang on your nose.

So, have you, Mark?

What's wrong with the bad one?

It's a muck on your face.

There's a time and there's a place.

Mm.

Good evening.

After this morning.

Great-day, guys.

It's a relief, isn't it, Mark?

I'm still too broke to talk about married seas.

Didn't you know the thought it ends your head?

Oh, yes, you damn well did.

Of course, I'll, uh, not be able to keep you in the manner to which you've been accustomed to.

How till I make my first million?

Capitalist.

And what are you?

Me?

I'm nothing.

Me?

If it's not in here, it's not in the house.

And I can't see it being in here.

I call it me should but account box.

You what?

Things I should throw away but I haven't got the heart. They all go in here.

Oh, look at that.

What is it?

A postcard.

Our kid sent when he went on a quiet trip.

And he only went for a day.

Oh, it's a bundle of old letters, that.

That's so inspiring.

All the letters he sent me when he went in the forces, right up to his last from the Far East.

I'd forgotten they were there.

Put them on the fire for me, will you?

Can I read them?

Could you?

I've read mine twice at least since he died.

I've thought about it.

The world on it even.

It's the only way I can live with it.

Facing it.

When no one comes into my head, I let him stay there.

I don't push him out.

Burns too.

Is he still alive, I wonder?

Where's Colin?

He's at my mother's. He goes there a lot these days.

He sleeps there sometimes.

When I go to the club.

Yes.

I heard you go to the club.

You don't mind, you?

Nope.

You and George were good about Ernst.

I shall never forget that.

Life goes on, you said.

I promised Lovey the picture of the book to show his pals at that school he's at.

Blake's got a camera.

Oh, hey, I see.

I saw he has.

I'll ask Blake.

Burn them.

You can't shut the past out any more than you can stop the future.

Tell her I'm right, Granddad.

Don't ease off.

Close his eyes and his asleep.

I wish I could do it.

Last year the Russians blocked the use of independent observers at the so-called free elections in Poland.

Something they had agreed to, both at Yalta and at Potsdam.

Najee resigned in Hungary.

Petkov was hanged in Bulgaria.

After confessing.

Two what?

They were among the leading anti-fascists of their time.

Oh, we may have stopped dismantling our air raid shelters this year.

But we hide behind our moat still.

We talk of the dollar gap.

Sterling balances.

We concentrate our venom on spivs.

We live on an island entire of itself, we think.

And yet in Europe the war goes on.

A war for the right to speak your mind.

To be able to stand up without fear and say,

I do not like this present government.

If you select me, and if the people elect me to serve them,

I will fight in that war in your parliament.

All of us who come before you, I'm sure have some special purpose which transcends all others.

Now you know mine.

It may not be your own priority.

But without it.

What do we have?

We are going to be in the war.

Kirby, you want to see the industry nationalised?

I can understand why they want it in a way.

It came from Charo de la, the town that was murdered this day.

Now Charo could have had a steel work, but the money men wouldn't have it.

The labour has never forgotten that. We need capital.

Machinery is like the people worn out with war work.

We lost six men to the ordnance factory up the coast last month.

The blatant poaching. Who told it up with the job?

George Hayward wages department. My son married his daughter.

I've got a spy in the camp, Lucy.

He says this because we don't pay as well.

But we all know George is used.

She's lad over there, young care.

I haven't seen him since the wedding.

It must be a writer I think as father said.

It's not a company.

It is.

Jack Blaze.

John Union man.

They're never communists I think.

Not that he's not a decent sort of bloke.

He's not up to the job really.

They've got some disease out east in the war.

They're lads cover up for him.

So we turn a blind eye.

Hello, wouldn't you say he was a troublemaker?

Young Haywood sheriff's views, do you think?

Not this day.

Perhaps I should have a word with him.

Maybe not.

Wouldn't want to have Paris.

You sound happy?

Mr. Tell me you were here.

Sorry I was out.

Time don't seem to work.

What?

The chimes don't seem to work.

Oh, they haven't worked since the army moved out of here.

I haven't seen two, one of these days.

It meant Mark on the way.

Gondokek, Peggy, the Haywoods.

Who's too been quarreling?

I haven't heard the raised voices from the flathead.

Is that oil on your cheek?

Oh, probably.

Here.

Who's this?

Let me.

Oh.

Kaka.

Bros.

I don't think young brothers took keen on his father.

I don't think he's done his job.

Could you have a word with him sometime?

Can't you?

Well, I tried to talk to him about his mother this morning,

but he made some excuse about having to go somewhere.

A butt, almost rude.

But in fact, I feel quite angry.

I didn't show it, of course.

Maybe you should have.

Well, I know he hasn't been getting on to where were Roberts.

Roberts took time to warn me.

Anyway.

What about you?

What have you been doing with yourself?

Oh, I... I stripped down a carburetor.

Did he do some brake linings, polish to radiator or do?

Oh, my goodness.

What about young Hayward?

How's he doing, Dharma?

Struggling.

You'll come through.

If the country does.

Will I, though?

Ah.

I'm sorry.

Oh, no.

You just finished?

Hi.

You want a drink?

Oh, no, it's for the committee meeting.

They've been at it most of the day.

Eat a debate.

Yeah, it was that all right.

I thought this might help to cool them down.

Cheers, me next parliamentary candidate.

Yeah, you told you that. I didn't.

Rose told me.

Yeah, for God's sake, keep quiet about it.

We don't want the Tories to know.

Not yet.

So, fight a mix.

A Warrington standing for Labour.

I'll put the cat among the pigeons.

You vote for her, would you?

You won't be back in the fold.

No, no, I'm not speaking personally or even locally.

We'd been around here if we'd put a bunch of Andrews.

No, it's what people like you are going to do at the next general election that bothers me.

I abstained at the last one.

I thought you'd voted for them.

I was inclined to.

When it came to making the sign of the cross, we're going to notice it.

When it came to making the sign of the cross, we're going to notice it in.

Someone like Beth, could she swing you back to Labour?

Given a choice between them.

Well, err, and say, er, someone like your brother, Kia.

I'm not likely to vote for anarchy and chaos.

I wanted to stand once myself, you know, a long time ago.

Why didn't you?

Because I belonged to a generation of working men kept in their place

by being deprived of a decent education.

Some of them got through in spite of it.

I might have been one of them if it hadn't been something your granddad once said to me when he was laying into Labour.

They're not educated men.

That's what he said.

I think I'll go.

What?

Can I miss him to run me down?

I thought your sister mother was meeting her here.

She is. You two want to be alone.

And I'm hopeless at making excuses that don't sound like excuses.

You want me to win, don't you?

Is it a game?

It sometimes seems like a game.

Like snakes and ladders.

One move and a whole picture changes, for better or for worse.

Well, I've sliked that sometimes, isn't it?

Even when you suspect the dice you go and play.

I'm hoping.

Do I like that?

It's called a new look.

Yes, I know.

Can't change your life, change your dress, eh?

If you knew how much I want you to be settled, contented.

If it'll make you happy, marry the man.

You'll square it with God, really.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Men, no such thing.

Lads, they are all their lives.

What's this one like?

Oh, he's not so bad.

Quite, didn't he?

He only speaks when he's spoken to.

They're all like that, the first year of their word.

Like little lambs, pictures of innocence.

Where's young lovers?

Love that's away at school.

Sorry, he's getting a bit deaf.

Oh, yes, indeed.

Either that or he chooses to hear what he wants to hear.

Off he goes again.

Lovely way to live.

One foot in today and two other in yesterday.

Still, I suppose we're all like that sometimes.

Oh, I forgot to close that bedroom window.

How do it?

I've got two legs.

I close it.

Oh, he's spoken.

No, you're trying to stop her.

I've been trying for years.

Ever since she had rheumatic fever.

I do try.

I know you do.

But you might as well try stopping the tide.

She lives for today.

Does it worry you?

Yes.

We must go.

Why has she changed her doctor?

I didn't know she had.

Not because of you then.

Well, good heavens now.

Jean let it out.

Do you know him?

What's his name?

Mom.

More?

No.

No, I don't.

I thought you might.

Him being a Catholic.

Hey!

We're going.

Looks like it.

It's our own mom.

I'll see you next week.

Yes, don't leave it too long.

No.

And rock up well.

That wind's bitter.

Oh, through you.

You got everything?

Yes, think so.

Bye-bye.

Thanks for everything.

Bye.

Bye.

Thanks for everything.

Look after Jean and young Caul for me.

I know you will.

You and Dad.

It's fine out here, but I'll be glad to get back to good old Blighty.

It's true what they say, mom.

There's no place like home.

refrigerator with drinking sour Crisps

pot, pour

Caoops,

butter,

Guan

So many good cars lately?

Nah.

I might have a buyer for Mark's old one.

Who likes money for cars?

It's all crawling out through the cracks in the floorboards now is it?

What about loot from the wall?

Yeah, dare say that's where some of it comes from.

There was an ice sitting over Dresden looking down at the fires.

Things I've done for England.

Let's take a blowcoat over there.

Show me.

Made a fortune organising black market meat.

It was a farmer when the war broke out.

I thought contact with nature was supposed to make people beautiful.

There's Jim.

Now I've seen everything.

I've had syrunki.

A bloke like that after all, Ed.

They hanged himself for England.

Maybe she wants somebody to hate for a change.

The other where the pain is sooner or later, somewhere along the line,

she knows more about it than anybody does.

Aren't you usually stirring it up down the con club?

I only go for the beer.

Same again.

Somebody you know.

She belongs to somebody I know.

The lungs.

I thought you idealists wanted a free women from being chappell to me.

I'm off.

Tell them I'm not that long.

The tukis medicine.

Oh, yeah, I know he got back home as I was coming out.

He's over on his own, is he?

Well, his tea was on the tea, huh?

When does that little go to bed?

It's dead when he comes home after all the time.

Any other night comes to life.

I told you this morning he shouldn't be doing overtime.

What do you think I'm doing here?

Have you been here long?

First week.

And I don't find it much fun either,

if that's what you have to be thinking.

Sorry.

You like him?

Tama?

Believes in the brother of the man.

Dixie, if we're granted, we understand he means women as well.

Well, we tag a long after men, don't we?

Yeah, that's not how he really sees it.

I know how he sees it, better than you do.

How do you want to serve, you know?

You're just passing through.

That's for that, doesn't it?

Yes, you do.

I'll have a pound of mild.

I'd not want a woman's life for all I'm not

taken with me all night.

That's where the Germans were.

They're just throwing their shoes at me.

Ow.

T skilled men.

And they're just beating them.

You told me.

They believe it!

I'm not even leaving.

I'm leaving.

I'm leaving.

I never met him.

He's stuck this phone, but it didn't end.

It didn't end.

Oh, that's good.

I had no idea.

No idea at all.

I couldn't tell you.

Not just your connection with the Tories, but...

It would all have been for nothing if I hadn't been selected.

But I know you would pick up some radical ideas in the war years when we were apart, but...

But this...

I had no idea.

You thought I was content to play a lady bandifold, a starving refugee?

Was it that Felico were involved with in the war?

It was something in politics, wasn't it?

I...

God, will we ever be done with that war?

It was more than the war, John.

More?

We were apart before that.

In this house, apart.

I had no idea.

It's not an accusation.

Not against you.

You had your world, you were born to it.

I chose it for God's sake when I married you.

Were you were stuck with yours?

I just stumbled across my new world.

Wasn't something I was consciously looking for like the Holy Grail,

alone in the house one day picking up a book to pass the hour.

It was something I read.

Nothing very important or exciting.

I think I can't even remember exactly what it was now.

Except that it made me want to read on.

I...

What do I find it so hard to communicate?

I...

I thought we were coming towards some kind of understanding.

We were, we are.

But this is too late.

Who are we?

We shall still be friends, I hope.

Friends.
