0:00:03 > 0:00:06'This is the story of Roy O'Brien.
0:00:06 > 0:00:09'He lives in an ordinary house on an ordinary street.
0:00:09 > 0:00:13'The only trouble is, he doesn't look very ordinary.
0:00:13 > 0:00:15'All Roy he really wants is to fit in,
0:00:15 > 0:00:20'but it's very hard to stay out of trouble when you're a cartoon.'
0:00:20 > 0:00:22ROY!
0:00:24 > 0:00:26ROY!
0:00:28 > 0:00:29ROY!
0:00:39 > 0:00:43'It's Saturday, and like all happy families,
0:00:43 > 0:00:46'Bill is taking Maura, Becky and Roy for an afternoon outing.'
0:00:46 > 0:00:47ROY AND BECKY: Are we there yet?
0:00:47 > 0:00:50If they say that one more time...
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Jack asked me to go ice skating with everyone else.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57There's a new outlet opening in Liffey Park.
0:00:57 > 0:00:58Well, I wanted to go fishing
0:00:58 > 0:01:01and your mam wanted to have a pedicure. But there you go.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05- Why do we keep going to Aunt Bridie's?- Every Saturday.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Because she's old, she's on her own and she needs our help.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10And a bit of companionship.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14So would it hurt you pair to stop thinking of yourselves?
0:01:14 > 0:01:16BOTH: Are we there yet?
0:01:16 > 0:01:18Are yous done moaning?
0:01:29 > 0:01:31Here y'are, love.
0:01:34 > 0:01:35Right.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39She's done it again.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42She's left it under the mat on the inside.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45She's 80, Becky. She's allowed to get a bit confused.
0:01:45 > 0:01:46Roy, come on.
0:01:47 > 0:01:48Do I have to?
0:01:48 > 0:01:51It won't take you a minute, go on.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53He's going to be there.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56No he won't be there, come on, good boy.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Come on, it's getting cold.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07- Have you got it?- Almost!
0:02:07 > 0:02:09- CAT YOWLS - Yowwwww!
0:02:09 > 0:02:14Wasn't so bad, you see? That wasn't too bad, was it?
0:02:14 > 0:02:17I think he's getting to like you.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20Are you all right, love?
0:02:20 > 0:02:22MEOW!
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Don't be worrying, he's friendly, Roy.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30All right, Mungo? Right.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Onwards and upwards.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35CUCKOO CLOCK WHIRRS AND CHIMES
0:02:35 > 0:02:36I thought I'd threw that...
0:02:36 > 0:02:41- She's must've had it fixed. Come on. - Come on.
0:02:41 > 0:02:42MEOW!
0:02:42 > 0:02:44That's enough outta you, Mungo.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47MEOW!
0:02:50 > 0:02:51Maura, Maura!
0:03:01 > 0:03:04- And what have you been up to this week?- Huh?
0:03:04 > 0:03:06Bill, get...
0:03:06 > 0:03:11Well, I did a couple of airport runs... and a wedding...
0:03:11 > 0:03:15Oh, I picked up that fella out of that band that you like,
0:03:15 > 0:03:17you know, your man with the Walnut Whip hair.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20So, when are you going to get a real job?
0:03:20 > 0:03:22A real job?
0:03:22 > 0:03:25You've been hauling that taxi round for years, Bill.
0:03:25 > 0:03:26Where are you going?
0:03:26 > 0:03:28It's all so aimless.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31There's nothing wrong with Bill's sense of direction.
0:03:31 > 0:03:37No, where is your ambition? I mean, take your cousin Danny...
0:03:37 > 0:03:42TOGETHER: "Started off without so much as a hod of bricks..."
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Worked his way up to foreman, and took over the whole company.
0:03:45 > 0:03:49Yeah, then he sold it off for a fortune just before the recession.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51- What did you say?- Nothing.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54- Oh, he knew where he was going. - He did.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56He retired to Florida. All right for some!
0:03:56 > 0:04:00- I can't hear you. - I didn't say anything!
0:04:00 > 0:04:03Look, we can't sit around chatting all day, we've work to do.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06I'll have bash at the garden. Do the hoovering, will you?
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Make sure the kids are doing a good job in the kitchen.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12Come on. Are you all right?
0:04:12 > 0:04:14- LOUDER:- Are you all right?
0:04:17 > 0:04:20She doesn't throw anything out.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Look, she's left the fridge open again!
0:04:22 > 0:04:27Aw, look, it's all gone off. Eugh!
0:04:29 > 0:04:30Look at this.
0:04:34 > 0:04:35How old is she?
0:04:39 > 0:04:43Leave that, it's supposed to smell like that.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Ahh, you were so cute.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56Next time, I am bringing a tractor.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58- MAURA SCREAMS - Spider.
0:04:58 > 0:04:59I hate this house! >
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Right, that's it for the day. Come on, out, out.
0:05:02 > 0:05:03Come on, move.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08- See you next week, Bridie.- What?
0:05:08 > 0:05:10- Bye, Bridie.- We're going.
0:05:10 > 0:05:14- CUCKOO CLOCK WHIRRS AND CHIMES - Calm down!
0:05:14 > 0:05:17That thing's going to give me a heart attack.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23MEOW!
0:05:25 > 0:05:27OK, paintballing next Saturday.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31Listen, Alex, I can't go, have to visit my auntie this Saturday.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Again? You missed ice skating.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36You didn't miss anything. Just Jack falling on his bum.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40Why have you got to visit your auntie all of a sudden?
0:05:41 > 0:05:44My dad says she's all on her own and she needs help,
0:05:44 > 0:05:47cos she's getting on a bit.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49I don't even like going to her house.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52It's all dusty and full of junk.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54And she has this really, really freaky cat.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Oh, what a pain. You won't catch me getting old.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01Technically, we all start dying the moment we're born.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03I'm just telling you as it is.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08'It's the following Saturday,
0:06:08 > 0:06:11'and the O'Briens are getting geared up again
0:06:11 > 0:06:15'for their weekly visit to Auntie Bridie's house in Castleknock.'
0:06:15 > 0:06:18Right, let's see what we have.
0:06:22 > 0:06:28Homemade chicken and barley soup, nice and easy on her gnashers.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32- Maura?- Yeah?- I can't find the, er... - Dust masks?
0:06:32 > 0:06:35I want to have a go at her at her attic today.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38- Actually, Da...- What?
0:06:38 > 0:06:42- Do you mind if I skip today? - What?- I want to do my nails.
0:06:42 > 0:06:43And I want to watch the match.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45If it's too much, I'll go on my own.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47You sit here and do your nails, uh?
0:06:47 > 0:06:51It's only two hours out of your week, Becky!
0:06:51 > 0:06:54- SKYPE BEEPS - Hey, it's Cousin Danny.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56'Hey, everyone.'
0:06:56 > 0:06:58- ALL:- Hey, Danny. - What's the weather like there?
0:06:58 > 0:07:00The usual, ya know?
0:07:00 > 0:07:03'It's 38 degrees here and it's just gone breakfast. Phew!'
0:07:03 > 0:07:05If it wasn't for the plunge pool,
0:07:05 > 0:07:07they'd be scraping me off the ceiling.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09'How's my Becky? How's Roy?'
0:07:09 > 0:07:12We're fine. Looking forward to next summer.
0:07:12 > 0:07:13Come again?
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Remember? You invited us over.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17'I did?
0:07:17 > 0:07:22'Hmm, OK, well, erm, we may have to take a raincheck on that one.'
0:07:22 > 0:07:26I'm in the middle of repainting the guest wing,
0:07:26 > 0:07:28it mightn't work out this year.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- But next year. That's a promise. - Danny, listen, mate,
0:07:31 > 0:07:33did you call for anything in particular?
0:07:33 > 0:07:35We're going to Auntie Bridie's.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- 'Aunt Bridie's?' - We go there every Saturday.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Oh, you do, do you?
0:07:41 > 0:07:44Becky, get Roy, we're late. Come on.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49- 'What's going on, Billy Boy?' - What do you mean?
0:07:49 > 0:07:53What's with this visiting Aunt Bridie all of a sudden?
0:07:53 > 0:07:55We're helping her out. She's on her own.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58Come on, Bill, I wasn't born yesterday.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00- What?- Big house, Castleknock.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Bet you've been onto the estate agents already.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Hear, that did you? Outrageous.
0:08:06 > 0:08:07He's gone.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09- It's never crossed your mind?- No.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12I mean, Danny's her only other relative.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16Wait a second - you think I'm doing all this, every week,
0:08:16 > 0:08:17just to get into her good books?
0:08:17 > 0:08:19- What's going on?- Ssssh!
0:08:19 > 0:08:25Ah, Bill, I mean, you haven't thought about it?
0:08:25 > 0:08:29Big house. Big garden. Five bedrooms. Best part of Castleknock.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34She's got to leave it to somebody.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39- They're talking about Aunt Bridie's house.- So?
0:08:39 > 0:08:42When she dies, she'll have to leave it to someone, won't she?
0:08:42 > 0:08:44So?
0:08:44 > 0:08:47And that someone is either Danny or us.
0:08:47 > 0:08:48So?
0:08:48 > 0:08:51So, if we keep visiting her
0:08:51 > 0:08:54and helping out, maybe she'll leave it to us.
0:08:54 > 0:08:55But I don't like that house.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59No, but we'll sell it. Then we'll make a lot of money.
0:09:00 > 0:09:01Do you want a new laptop?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04That mountain bike you saw with all the gears?
0:09:20 > 0:09:24- Dad?- Huh?- How much do you reckon this house is worth?
0:09:24 > 0:09:26What sort of question is that?
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Just curious.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30In!
0:09:33 > 0:09:35How much is the house worth!
0:09:45 > 0:09:48You haven't grown much, Roy, have you?
0:09:48 > 0:09:51I only saw you last week, Auntie.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54In fact, you don't seem to grow at all.
0:09:54 > 0:09:58You know, you don't have to come and visit me.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00You've all got other things to do.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Oh, it's no problem, love. No problem.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07How you keeping?
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Euch, chillblains again.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Why don't you turn the heating on, Bridie?
0:10:12 > 0:10:15I'm dying, Bill.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17No, you're not, Bridie.
0:10:20 > 0:10:24I hate this getting old malarkey. When you start losing it.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26Losing what?
0:10:26 > 0:10:28- Your hearing.- It's fine.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30And your mind.
0:10:30 > 0:10:31- It's fine.- And your teeth.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33They're in!
0:10:33 > 0:10:36Ooh! One thing nice did happen this week.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41I got a lovely card from your cousin Danny.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45- He says he might be coming over this Christmas.- Oh, great.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48He's done so well for himself.
0:10:48 > 0:10:53Got off his back, pulled himself up by his bootstraps,
0:10:53 > 0:10:55made you proud to be an O'Brien.
0:10:57 > 0:11:02Then he swans off to Florida without so much as by-your-leave.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06Sunning himself while I'm left here on my own.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09But did he think of me?
0:11:11 > 0:11:15No, Danny O'Brien always looks after number one.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Selfish boy.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Unlike you, Bill.
0:11:21 > 0:11:22Ah!
0:11:24 > 0:11:26I won't forget your kindness.
0:11:30 > 0:11:34Roy, have you got something in your eyes?
0:11:34 > 0:11:37Erm, we'll, er, we'll go do a bit of cleaning,
0:11:37 > 0:11:39I think, Bridie, is that all right? Come on.
0:11:39 > 0:11:43What's the matter with you? Won't be long, love.
0:11:47 > 0:11:52OK, she's upset with Danny, but it never lasts long.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55He's always been the favourite, the golden boy.
0:11:56 > 0:12:01He's a charmer. He promises you the moon and the stars.
0:12:01 > 0:12:05But what Danny says and what Danny actually does
0:12:05 > 0:12:07are two completely different things.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10Anyway, it's her house and I'm not getting involved.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12She can leave it all to to him if she wants to.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14It's only money, at the end of the day.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19A lot of money, come to think about it.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23MEOW!
0:12:23 > 0:12:26That animal has got serious grooming issues.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Aah... Aah...
0:12:29 > 0:12:32Roy, why didn't you tell me it was there?
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Aah-aah-aah-tchoo!
0:12:40 > 0:12:43Becky, do you reckon she wants that posted?
0:12:45 > 0:12:50- What's up? - Do you know what this is?
0:12:50 > 0:12:52- What?- It's the will.
0:12:54 > 0:12:55What's that?
0:12:55 > 0:12:59It's a legal document where she writes out exactly
0:12:59 > 0:13:02who she wants to leave her stuff to when she dies.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07Yeah, documents, definitely.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Let's go. Your dad's feeling under the weather. Come on.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13Dad, look, we found this lett... Oww!
0:13:15 > 0:13:20- We still have to post it, don't we? - Not yet. Come on.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25MEOW!
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Becky?
0:13:33 > 0:13:35What are you doing?
0:13:35 > 0:13:37- I... er... - Where'd you get that?
0:13:37 > 0:13:41It was on Aunt Bridie's mantelpiece. We thought it needed to be posted.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45- Were you trying to open that? - We thought it was her will, Ma.
0:13:45 > 0:13:49- That's private!- Even if it is her will, that's her business, not ours.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52Leave that there and I'll post it first thing in the morning.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55- SKYPE BEEPS - Get that thing, will you?
0:13:57 > 0:13:59It's Danny.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01'Hey! How are things?'
0:14:01 > 0:14:02All right, Dan?
0:14:02 > 0:14:05So how did the visit go? How's Aunt Bridie?
0:14:05 > 0:14:09- She's grand, yeah. Looking very well for a woman of her age.- Oh.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12Yeah well, that's good to hear.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15We heard you're coming over for Christmas.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18If you want to stay with us, Becky and Roy can share.
0:14:18 > 0:14:23- Actually, between yourself and yourself, I'm not coming.- Oh?
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Yeah, well, I just can't face it actually.
0:14:25 > 0:14:29All that small talk, that creepy house, not to mention the weather.
0:14:29 > 0:14:33IF you guys could just play along, I'll tell her I've got the flu.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36- Won't Aunt Bridie be disappointed? - Yeah.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38But she'd have had all that time thinking about it.
0:14:38 > 0:14:43They need something to look forward to.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47They got nothing else to do Hey, Billy Boy how's the fishing?
0:14:47 > 0:14:50Remember those times we used to go out together? That was a riot, wasn't it?
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Funny you should say that actually, Dan.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Managed to catch a couple of seabass off Dollymount strand last week.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00- 2 kilos.- No way! - Yeah, should have been there, mate.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04Yeah, I popped down to Key Biscayne last weekend. Look at that baby.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07985 lbs. It's not a world record or anything
0:15:07 > 0:15:12but I really at feel one with marine life.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15Give us a shout when he's finished, love.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18And it gets me.. Bill, Bill.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20You were saying.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23Uncle Danny wasn't very nice about Aunt Bridie, was he?
0:15:23 > 0:15:26- She's probably split it.- Huh?
0:15:26 > 0:15:29The will. 50/50. Or, 60/40. In favour of Danny.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33That's not fair. We're the ones that visit her.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36- Remember there was the power cut and you found the torch?- Yeah.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39I mean, it was completely dark,
0:15:39 > 0:15:43we couldn't see our hands in front of our faces but somehow saw it.
0:15:43 > 0:15:44How did you do it?
0:15:44 > 0:15:46I just concentrated.
0:15:46 > 0:15:51- And you saw through the cupboard door?- Yeah.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54No, dad told us it was private, we can't.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56OK, forget it.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59- Wait..- What?
0:15:59 > 0:16:01What day was it when we had the power cut?
0:16:01 > 0:16:02Sunday.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06Right, So we just had dinner.
0:16:06 > 0:16:10- That's fascinating, Roy. - Roast pork. Roast potatoes.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Peas. And...
0:16:16 > 0:16:18- Night, Dad.- Night, love.
0:16:18 > 0:16:22You've got a carrot sticking out of your pyjamas.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41OK, I think you can stop now.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51I think I can see something...
0:16:52 > 0:16:57"I... Bridget... Gormley...O'Brien...
0:16:57 > 0:17:03"Hereby leave my estate and possessions to...
0:17:03 > 0:17:05"My beloved nephew..."
0:17:05 > 0:17:09Just get on with it, Roy.
0:17:09 > 0:17:13"Bill O'Brien and his dear family."
0:17:14 > 0:17:19Becky, I don't think I want any more carrots.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24It's OK!
0:17:24 > 0:17:26What are you doing with that envelope?
0:17:26 > 0:17:30- She's left it all to you.- What? Aunt Bridie's left it all to you.
0:17:30 > 0:17:35- We told you not to open it - We didn't open it. Roy saw through it.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Roy, you're looking kind of orange, what's wrong with you?
0:17:41 > 0:17:44- Carrots.- Come again?
0:17:44 > 0:17:46Aunt Bridie's left it all to you.
0:17:46 > 0:17:52- It said, "I Brigid Gormley O'Brien..."- Roy...
0:17:52 > 0:17:54How could you?
0:18:12 > 0:18:17OK, what's done is done. You're young.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18We all do reckless things in our life.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22Let's make sure we post this letter, all right?
0:18:22 > 0:18:24And maybe, in a way, it's a good thing.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27Because now we know we never should have doubted her.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30And maybe now we'll be happy to do a bit more for her.
0:18:30 > 0:18:36Dad, do you remember what cousin Danny said about visiting her for Christmas?
0:18:36 > 0:18:40Yeah, well that wasn't fair. She'll feel really let down.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43PHONE RINGS
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Why don't we go and visit her?
0:18:45 > 0:18:47Or, she could come here for Christmas.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50- She could have my room. - That's a brilliant idea, love.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53She could stay here for a couple of days. Hello?
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Yeah, make her feel part of the family
0:18:55 > 0:18:59- Would the cat come?- No, it goes to a cattery in Castleknock.
0:18:59 > 0:19:04Mind you, she'll probably just stay in her room and watch the wrestling.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Thank you.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09What's wrong?
0:19:10 > 0:19:13The meals on wheels person
0:19:13 > 0:19:18found Bridie on the floor an hour ago.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Said she had a heart attack.
0:19:22 > 0:19:26They don't think she would have felt much pain.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28Can't believe she's gone.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35She died?
0:19:35 > 0:19:38It's so strange.
0:19:38 > 0:19:43One moment she's there, the next moment she's not.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45When's the funeral?
0:19:45 > 0:19:48Tomorrow.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51My Da has to make a speech.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57There's not going to be many people there,
0:19:57 > 0:20:01she didn't have many friends left, and she only had one relative
0:20:01 > 0:20:05apart from my Dad, he's in America, so he can't make it.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11My Dad says when he dies he's going to have a massive party.
0:20:11 > 0:20:15And he wants his ashes scattered in the goalmouth at Old Trafford.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17I want a woodland burial.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19I'm going to donate my body to science.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21I want to be cryogenically frozen then woken up
0:20:21 > 0:20:24when they've found a cure for death.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Or get turned into fertiliser.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30Hmmm, what?
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Thanks very much.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42That's about it. I don't think anybody else is coming.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55- Danny!- Billy Boy!
0:20:59 > 0:21:03- Maura.- Daniel. I didn't think you'd make it...
0:21:03 > 0:21:06How could I not be here for dear Bridie?
0:21:06 > 0:21:08- How are you?- Exhausted.
0:21:08 > 0:21:09Long flight?
0:21:09 > 0:21:10Yeah, I was upgraded.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14They keep waking you up and feeding you caviar!
0:21:14 > 0:21:17Listen, Bill, they are reading the will today, aren't they?
0:21:17 > 0:21:20Yeah, the solicitor's coming to the house.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23Not that it's important, it's just I'm booked back tomorrow
0:21:23 > 0:21:26and it would be nice to tie everything up while I'm here.
0:21:26 > 0:21:30FUNEREAL MUSIC
0:21:30 > 0:21:36Thank you all for coming today, to commemorate this sad occasion,
0:21:36 > 0:21:41the passing of our dear...
0:21:41 > 0:21:44Auntie Bridie...
0:21:48 > 0:21:50I'd like to pay tribute.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53To her long and interesting life...
0:21:53 > 0:21:57Born April 12th 1932 in Castleknock.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02She attended Castleknock Girls' School
0:22:02 > 0:22:05where she played for the netball team.
0:22:07 > 0:22:12She left at 16 to work for Castleknock Biscuits...
0:22:14 > 0:22:15CAT CRIES
0:22:15 > 0:22:18..till her retirement in 1995.
0:22:20 > 0:22:25Our dear Bridie, much loved and missed by all...
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Actually, I can't do this.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33Who am I kidding?
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Who are we all kidding, huh?
0:22:37 > 0:22:40All she wanted was a bit of company,
0:22:40 > 0:22:44a bit of love.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46It was all so much hassle though, wasn't it?
0:22:46 > 0:22:52I mean we all went over, every week, we turned up,
0:22:52 > 0:22:55but we were just going through the motions.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Couldn't wait to get away from her.
0:22:57 > 0:23:03Impatient with her for getting a bit deaf, getting a bit old
0:23:03 > 0:23:07cos that's never going to happen any of us, is it?
0:23:08 > 0:23:12Oh yes, it is.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16And won't we be glad to see a smiling friendly face once in a while?
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Someone who'll take our hand,
0:23:19 > 0:23:23and give it a little squeeze?
0:23:28 > 0:23:32Roy, no...
0:23:32 > 0:23:34I can't hold it in.
0:23:50 > 0:23:51Thanks a million. Thank you.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58You know, Danny, it's great you that made it over.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01I really wasn't expecting it.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05Listen, Bill, what you said today, was so true.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08So heartfelt.
0:24:08 > 0:24:09Thanks.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11I feel so guilty.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14Even when I was living here, I never really went to visit,
0:24:14 > 0:24:18then I took off to the States, never even said goodbye.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23I don't think she ever forgave me.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26She was proud of you, Danny. She told me so herself.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33No, I'm so ashamed. I let her down.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38- Dad.- What?
0:24:38 > 0:24:40Come here.
0:24:43 > 0:24:47- Danny's really upset, isn't he? - Yeah, he is, yeah.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52We might have got him wrong, huh?
0:24:52 > 0:24:56You know Auntie Bridie's house? Maybe we should...
0:24:56 > 0:25:01You're thinking what I'm thinking.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06Danny, there's something I want to tell you.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10I'm sorry to interrupt, everyone, but I have another appointment,
0:25:10 > 0:25:16so if you don't mind I'd like to press on with family business,
0:25:16 > 0:25:22namely the reading of Miss O'Brien's arrangements for her estate.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24- Danny, it's OK. - What?
0:25:24 > 0:25:27- We'll split it.- What? - Aunt Bridie's will.
0:25:27 > 0:25:32- What's there to split? She'll be leaving it all to me. - I'll talk to you after, all right.
0:25:32 > 0:25:38"The Last Will & Testament of Brigid Gormley O'Brien..."
0:25:38 > 0:25:43"I, Brigid Gormley O'Brien, leave my estate and possessions to...
0:25:47 > 0:25:49"..Castleknock Kennels & Cat Sanctuary."
0:25:51 > 0:25:55"Furthermore I leave my antique Swiss Cuckoo Clock
0:25:55 > 0:26:02"to my beloved nephew Bill O'Brien and his dear family."
0:26:02 > 0:26:07- Roy, you said that... - I did, thought that's what it said.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11"I Brigid Gormley O'Brien, hereby leave my estate
0:26:11 > 0:26:15"and possessions to Castleknock Kennels & Cat Sanctuary."
0:26:15 > 0:26:18I don't get it.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21"I Brigid Gormley O'Brien, hereby leave my estate
0:26:21 > 0:26:24"and possessions to my beloved nephew Bill O'Brien
0:26:24 > 0:26:27"and his dear family."
0:26:27 > 0:26:28Roy.
0:26:28 > 0:26:34Right, well that was delightful. We should do that again sometime.
0:26:34 > 0:26:39They can keep that damp, woodworm infested old pile anyway.
0:26:39 > 0:26:43- It needs a bit of work, Danny! - It needs a bulldozer, Bill.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48I'll see myself out.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52Ciao!
0:26:58 > 0:27:01- Suppose Danny will be on the plane by now.- You what,
0:27:01 > 0:27:05I never saw anyone run as quick to get a taxi before in my life.
0:27:05 > 0:27:06Are you still upset?
0:27:06 > 0:27:09Nah, it could have been worse, son.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11We could have been left the cat.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23Listen Dad, I'm sorry about trying to read the will.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26No, Roy, I'm sorry.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31I got a bit carried away myself too there, ya know.
0:27:31 > 0:27:35Sometimes you lose sight of what's important in life.
0:27:35 > 0:27:39And it's not things that are important, it's people.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43We're all together, we've got our health,
0:27:43 > 0:27:46and that's all that matters, at the end of the day.
0:27:46 > 0:27:51You've just got to be philosophical about these things.
