I know Gary's done a big job. He's in trouble.

You keep your trap shut.

What could I say? I don't know anything.

Where is he?

Kelly, wake up, come on, love.

So, you've just been made homeless

and you want to put your daughter in emergency care?

I don't want to, obviously.

Is Kelly in danger?

Come here.

Don't go, Mummy. Please don't go.

- Where's Kelly? - I have to keep her safe.

I want to see Kelly!

I fully intend on getting a job and a place of my own

to support us, I just...

I just need a chance.

It's been a tough day. - Oh yeah, what d'you do?

I'm a thief.

It's just work. And it's just one job.

Yeah, I know.

If you rip me off, I'll kill you.

Snap.

It's, uh, it's Joan, Kelly's Mum.

Oh, hello.

I'm just about to put her to bed. I'll get her for you.

Hello?

Kelly, it's me! How are you?

I've started riding lessons.

I have to wear a hat.

The pony's called Peanut!

l miss you.

When am I coming home?

I'm just finding us a new place.

It won't be long now, I promise.

Are you still coming on Thursday?

You can meet Peanut.

PHONE BEEPS - Of course I'm coming.

I'll see you on Thursday, Kelly.

I love you, Kel. - MumMy?

DISTANT SIREN WAILS

Not a single chip on this, mint condition.

Incredibly rare.

Now you see the gilding here?

That's all hand painted.

Look at that coral pattern.

So...

just delicate. Slip moulded.

Yeah, circa 1840.

How d'you know?

My new assistant, learning the ropes.

Cos, Joan, prior to that

they didn't indent the saucers.

Oh.

Two hundred for the set.

I'll give you 50 for the teapot.

Oh, no! No, no.

Can't break up the set. It's miraculous it's complete.

I'm sorry, I misunderstood.

I thought you said you were very good friends.

But I do have some charming Delftware if you're looking to economise.

No. 150 for the whole set?

160, cash.

I'll throw in a free gift wrap.

Pick it up four o'clock.

Beautiful yellow sapphire.

Burmese.

Thank you so much. - Thank you.

Alright, take care, I'll see you later.

Not bad for a night's work.

So, where d'you get it from?

Just my warehouse, where I keep all my stock.

Where's that then?

No.

My whole life's in there.

You don't trust me.

So where are your stones, Joan?

I see you're ready to start work?

Right, I've got the perfect job for you.

What is it?

First, we've got to clean up after the last one you did.

Oh, look at him.

SHE SIGHS Bloody perv.

Go on then, in you go.

I told you, a good thief always covers their tracks.

If you disappear into thin air

he'll suspect it's you when he discovers his stones are gone.

He'll give your name to the police.

And our next job will be ten times more risky.

I like risk.

Well, I can't work with an amateur, so...

Fine!

Never had it in you anyway.

Poke me in the eye then.

What?

Fine, I'll do it myself.

What? I've gotta look the part.

It's my dad...

Lung cancer.

Oh.

Joan...

I am so sorry.

I don't wanna let you down, but I have to go to him, in Scotland.

You don't give it another thought.

Family is everything.

Thank you. That's very kind.

By the way, is... Linda alright?

What do you mean?

Oh...

She's got terrible money problems.

Credit cards, all sorts.

Oh.

What about this one, Boisie?

A tenner?

Or this one?

You know I don't buy rubbish.

What? I thought you liked old shit.

Just the cheque book, like I said.

Didn't put you down as a kite. - Not for me, is it?

Here y'are, 60 quid. - Hundred.

Seventy, cos I'm in a good mood.

Alright, mate. - Alright, Boisie.

"A first-class employee... picked up the business in no time."

And I can have my job back whenever I like.

That might be useful.

No, I'm never going back.

I'm impressed, Joan.

So come on, tell me. What's this job then?

It's a job of two halves. The first half is preparation.

Shopping time.

But I wanna nick jewels, not shoplift with a dodgy cheque book.

Yes, yes, all in good time.

I'm only doing this one job.

And this is the first part of it.

So, what am I nicking? - Clothes.

Here y'are, practise.

Mrs R Hamilton. It's just squiggles, it doesn't matter.

What d'you think the R stands for?

Whatever you like.

Rachel? Rebecca?

Roxy.

Call me Rox.

OK, right. We gotta go down the high street.

Get some photos done.

What? Why?

You need a passport.

Once you've nicked the gear, we're going to Spain tomorrow.

SHE LAUGHS

Spain? Oh, my God.

Oh, Kelly.

Gotta be back Thursday afternoon.

CAMERA CLICKS - That's alright.

We'll fly back early that morning. Plenty of time.

The second part of the job is we need to courier some jewellery.

Three high-value pieces lifted from a house in Mayfair last week.

My mate Albie sells it out in Spain, where the pigs aren't looking for it.

We take it over, he pays us on delivery.

So, we're gonna take a regular flight

pose as a wealthy couple.

That's why you need the clobber. You have to look the part.

Roxy will need to look classy.

Choose three or four outfits.

Day and evening wear. Nothing too flash.

When you're in the store, stay calm.

Enjoy it.

You're just a filthy rich woman doing your last-Minute holiday shopping.

Would you like me to put those in the changing rooms for you?

Yes, please.

Thank you.

SHE CLEARS HER THROAT Roxy...

Rox, Roxy Hamilton.

Alright in there, madam?

You look smashing.

Is it for a special occasion? - I'm off to Spain.

Oh, you lucky thing!

I know.

When you get to the till

they're gonna ask for a cheque guarantee card.

There you go. - Cheque guarantee card?

Uh...

Sorry, I...

Ride it out. Trust me.

I'm so sorry. I, um... - Left it at home?

Yeah, what an idiot.

Done the same myself.

Just write me out three cheques, ?50, ?50 and ?45.99.

Thanks.

Once you've got your outfits, get out of the store sharpish.

Have a good day. - You too.

Don't get distracted, Joan.

CoMe straight back to my flat.

Where's the ladies room?

Through the door on the left, madam.

SOFT JAZZ PLAYS

DOORBELL RINGS

Didn't expect to see you again so soon.

Me neither. Got an unexpected haul.

DOOR CLOSES

Right.

You've been busy, love.

Yeah, she's a right proper talent.

If not something of a loose cannon.

Give you a tenner each item.

SHE SCOFFS No, they're all at least for new.

Mm, there's no price tags.

I wrote the prices down.

You got a right one here, mate. - Thousand pounds, the lot.

Seven hundred. - Eight.

Take it or leave it.

Yeah.

Suits you.

Hm...

Impressive work, love. See you again.

Leave the price tags on next time.

Punters like to know how much they've saved when he's selling round the pubs.

Well, there won't be a next time.

Spain, then I'm done.

Oh...

What do you really want, Roxy?

Right now?

380 quid. Half the profits minus 20 for the wig.

But I only told you to nick the clothes, so...

OK, well, I don't always do what I'm told.

Especially if I have better ideas.

I introduced you to the fence, and, uh...

I, uh... bought the cheque book, so...

Yeah, I reckon we're about even.

Are you fucking kidding me?

Maybe.

Yeah.

Maybe I am.

Come on then, hand it over.

Come and get it.

Come on.

Pay Roxy her half.

Or what?

She'll walk out, and you'll never see her again.

You like walking out, don't you?

D'you wanna know what Roxy wears under her dress?

And what else?

Nothing.

I watched something on telly once about clean freaks.

You're not a psychopath, are you?

No.

You iron as well? - Only my bank notes.

What?

HE CHUCKLES

Who d'you learn to clean off? Your mum?

Who then? Big sister?

Prison.

Learned everything there really.

Yeah, but not antiques. - Yeah, I did.

I picked up a book from the library. Got really into it.

Ordered another one.

Why?

Don't know.

All the hallmarks, the categories.

Everything has a value.

Mm...

Right, to work.

For you.

The gear's inside.

If I carry an attach? case with ladies' jewels in

it'll look dodgy, so...

So you want me to take it on the plane, bear all the risk?

You've got the balls, haven't you?

Course I have.

The passport's a good forgery.

I believe in you, Joan.

Yeah, but...

what are you paying me?

Grand. - Two grand.

So, when's the flight? - Midday.

Better get ready then.

I reckon amateurs carry their gear in shiny, new attach? cases.

Professionals wear 'em.

Then let's go to Spain.

Please stow your hand luggage

either in the overhead coMpartments

or underneath the seat in front of you.

It's a full flight today, so we appreciate your cooperation...

It's alright, Joan, we're through security now.

Hi. - Hello.

Lovely, thank you.

Hi. - Hi.

Ah, Mrs Hamilton?

If you could step aside and wait for my colleague from passport control.

OK.

What's the issue?

If you could just wait here. Thank you.

Hi. Good morning.

Thank you. - Lovely, thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

Excuse me please, coming through. Thank you very much.

- Thank you. - Excuse me.

Mrs Hamilton?

You left it on the counter.

Thank you. Sorry, my wife's a very nervous flier.

I thought you'd flown before.

Do I look like I've fucking flown before?

Hold my hand.

Hold my hand. I said hold my bloody hand.

Oh...

Are we in the air? - Yeah.

Yeah? - Yes.

Yeah? SHE LAUGHS

Woo!

Oh!

I've never seen anything like this in my life.

It's so beautiful.

Can we go to the beach?

All in good time.

We need to drop the gear off with Albie first.

So, we'll swing by his club.

You need to act dumb around his missus, alright?

Pretend you're my bird.

Because? - She doesn't know about business.

Better take the gear off before we get there also.

You'll love him.

Is he into antiques as well?

No.

No, he's nothing like me.

How d'you meet?

Inside, he was my cell mate.

C'mon, let's get paid.

- You finished with that? - Yeah.

Yeah? We'll go in a minute.

Albie. Alright, mate?

Never better. HE CHUCKLES

Hi, Joan. - Hi!

I'm Val, this is Jonny. - Hi, Jonny.

So, how's the big smoke, Boise?

Business alright? - Good, yeah.

Yeah, very good.

Joan's started working for me.

Oh, so do you know all about antiques then?

I'm teaching her.

Alright, let the girl speak for herself, Boisie.

Thank you.

Uh, yeah. I'm learning the trade.

But in my own way.

How's that then?

Well, I won't let a man boss me around.

Ooh... - JOAN CHUCKLES

Must be nice growing up out here.

Oh, not really. He hasn't got any friends here.

That's not true.

How would you know? You're never around. SHE LAUGHS

Someone's gotta earn the bread.

Especially at the rate you spend it. - Children, children.

Never have kids, Joan.

No end of bloody trouble, eh?

We should be getting off, Albie.

Oh, I just need a word with Boise.

INDISTINCT CONVERSATION

You know, you're the first girl he's brought out here.

I think he just wanted company on the flight. - VAL LAUGHS

So, what kind of work is Albie in?

Oh, importing stuff. This and that, you know?

What kind of stuff?

I don't really get involved.

Right, Val, Jonny, vamoose!

Uh, you're about tomorrow, aren't you? - Yeah.

Yeah, we're staying at Hotel Rhondo. - Yeah.

Right, see you there.

HE CLICKS TONGUE - VAL: Come on, babe.

- Joan. - Nice to meet you, Joan.

Bye. Bye, Jonny!

Bye.

Count it.

I trust you.

Always count the money, Joan.

So... why do you think Albie keeps everything from Val?

She knows, deep down she does.

Yeah, that's how I was with Gary.

Albie's solid, Joan.

First night in an adult nick, I was put in a cell with him.

He told me who to befriend, who to avoid.

He looked out for you.

Yeah. - Mm.

Then I taught him how to play backgammon

took a load of money off him, he's been trying to get over it ever since.

Never gonna be like Val again.

I need to run my own life.

Come on, you said you would!

I can't swim.

Well, nor can I.

Come on. Go on!

Come on! Why are you being like that?

Oi!

Oh!

So, they just give you all this stuff for free?

Uh-huh.

What's this?

Shoehorn.

That's useful.

Right, what about this little packet?

Sewing kit.

I mean, who does sewing on their holidays?

Move in with me, Joan.

What?

When we get home.

Are you taking the piss?

We've only just met.

I like you.

I think we make a good team.

I can't. I need to get my own flat.

For me and Kelly.

What you got her doing, selling on in the shop?

She's a thief.

She already nicked a load of stuff on her own.

Toasters and tellies?

Diamonds.

Loose.

She swallowed 'em from her work.

Business and pleasure all in one cute little package.

Yeah.

Yeah, no, I reckon we'll make a good team, she's a natural.

We worked together for years. I still look out for him.

Oh, you're his babysitter, are you?

ALBIE CHUCKLES

Been asking about you, Joan.

I found out your ex did a job for me back in the day.

You've spoken to Gary?

Says you was a right nightmare.

Ran off with his kid.

Well, Gary's a bloody liar.

You're sexy when your blood's up.

Fuck you.

Hey, Joan, I'm just joking.

Good Morning, ladies and gentleMen, this is the flight deck.

I have just been inforMed by air traffic control

that due to unforeseen circumstances

our departure has been delayed by approxiMately 60 minutes.

Shit. - I apologise for this delay

and the inconvenience to your... - Boisie, did you hear that?

It's alright, calm down.

You promised I'd be back.

You never said it could be late, how can it be late?

It's not like there's any traffic up there. - Only an hour.

Only? - Yeah.

If I'm an hour late for Kelly, and the social find out.

What? The world's gonna end? - SHE SIGHS

You really don't get it, do you?

I just think you're overreacting, - Cos you don't have a kid.

You don't understand family.

That's not fair.

I think it is.

I mean... who are you?

Why d'you even bring me out here? - Can you cut it out?

You could have done the job on your own.

You could've put the gear in your own bag.

Isn't that what you normally do, Boise?

I've been looking for a partner since Albie left.

I want us to work together.

What, so this whole thing was just a test?

Seeing if I'd obey your little rules, steal to order?

Have the bottle to go through customs?

Calm down. - Oh, I'm really fucking calm.

I've got my cash, counted it, thanks for the tip.

I'm gonna go get my daughter. - Joan.

Excuse me?

I need to get off. I need to call my sister.

My daughter's waiting for me, she's only six.

Sorry, it's not possible.

Ladies and gentleMen, this is your captain again.

We will shortly be starting our descent into London.

I do apologise once again for our late departure.

We should have you on the ground 90 Minutes later than scheduled.

Flight crew, please prepare the cabin for landing.

Oh, thank you.

Ah, it's melting already!

My baby! - Mummy!

Thank you.

Oh, God...

Sweetheart, let me see you, come on.

SHE GASPS You are growing up way too fast, missy.

Look at your hair.

Beautiful. You having fun?

Yeah.

Give me a cuddle.

How was it? - Oh, it was great.

Can't wait to get her back.

Sorry if I was a bit late.

Kelly's doing really well, Joan.

She's missing you, of course, but, um...

she's forming a healthy relationship with the Ashburys

and they've enrolled her in a fantastic school.

Just until you're ready for her.

But I'm... I'm ready, I'm ready now.

We need to make sure that you're on an even keel, properly settled.

But I... I am settled. I'm working in a jewellers.

I'm living with my sister.

We tried calling you yesterday.

Nancy said you'd moved out.

Have the two of you fallen out?

No, no. I... I, um...

And Nancy suggested we try your place of work.

Look, I had to leave, the boss was a perv.

Have you got another job? - Yeah, course I have.

Doing what? - What is this, 20 fucking questions?

Sorry.

I'm sorry. I just...

I'm, I'm, I'm... I'm ready for Kelly, I'm all set.

If you don't believe me, look, I've got the deposit for a flat

right here, look.

See, there...

We ran some other checks.

The police told us you stole a car.

But...

But I had no choice, I... I was so desperate to see Kel and...

And I've got a suspen...

Look, please, just give me a chance.

Our only concern is for Kelly's welfare.

And where she is right now, she has security--

Yeah, a posh school and ponies.

It's true that the Ashburys have a regular source of income

but they also offer Kelly a stable, loving home, and...

until you can provide that

I'm afraid we think that she's better off where she is.

And we've obtained a court order

formally placing Kelly in our care.

It's not forever, Joan.

We'll put a plan in place

and arrange regular meetings to assess your progress

and over time--

It'll get harder. You're making it too hard for me.

You just need to prove to us that you're a good, reliable mummy.

You've got a lovely colour, Joan.

Have you been away somewhere?

It's fake.

It's all fucking fake.

Vodka and orange, please. - Sure.

Keep the change.

Thanks.

Thanks for bringing my stuff.

Well, I'd buy you a drink, but it looks like you're sorted.

How is Kelly?

Yeah, yeah, she's good.

But I, uh...

can't get her back just for a bit.

Gotta prove myself to the social.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Yeah, me too.

So, you looking for somewhere to stay?

Come on.

Come on.

Come back with me.

You still want that?

If I'm going to get Kelly back, I need money.

Course you do.

No, I mean proper money.

I wanna buy a house...

six bedrooms, books in all the shelves

horse outside.

Fuck it, two horses.

I mean money, money.

Know what I mean?

Yeah, I reckon I do.

What are we waiting for?
