0:01:46 > 0:01:48HE CLEARS THROAT Excuse me.

0:01:48 > 0:01:52- Yeah?- Would you mind taking a photo? - Sure.- I'll just wind it back.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54It's an old...old camera.

0:01:54 > 0:01:59- There we are. Just press that button there.- OK.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02- Try and get me with the... jewel.- Yeah.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04Just a sec.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08SHUTTER CLICKS

0:02:08 > 0:02:10Yeah?

0:02:10 > 0:02:12It's important that I get the... the...

0:02:12 > 0:02:15RETREATING FOOTSTEPS

0:02:36 > 0:02:39# Will you search through the lonely earth for me,

0:02:39 > 0:02:41# Climb through the briar and bramble?

0:02:44 > 0:02:46# I'll be your treasure

0:02:49 > 0:02:50# I'm waiting for you

0:02:53 > 0:02:56# I'm waiting for you. #

0:02:58 > 0:03:00Oh! WASP BUZZES

0:03:00 > 0:03:03Stripy bas...bastard! Ohhh!

0:03:03 > 0:03:05Why are you even awake at this time of year?

0:03:05 > 0:03:07BUZZING CONTINUES

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Mate!

0:03:15 > 0:03:17Bloody hell! ANDY CHUCKLES

0:03:17 > 0:03:18- Hello, mate!- Ah!

0:03:20 > 0:03:24- Oh, I won't... I...spilled a bit of coffee down my front!- Sure.

0:03:24 > 0:03:25So what are you doing here, then?

0:03:25 > 0:03:28I thought you were supposed to be in Botswana.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30Yeah, just came back for a week, pick up some stuff.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33- Looks like we're going to be staying a bit longer.- Yeah?

0:03:33 > 0:03:36- So it's all going well, then? - Mate, it's amazing.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39- I've so much to tell you.- And Becky and Stan?- Yep, they're well.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41- They're at home.- I'll have to come round and say hello.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44Oh, no, I meant home, Botswana home.

0:03:44 > 0:03:48Bloody hell! Listen to that! Even got a bit of an accent going on there.

0:03:48 > 0:03:50- Shut up! I haven't.- Yeah!

0:03:52 > 0:03:56- But they're both well? - Yeah, yeah, brilliant. Thriving.

0:03:56 > 0:04:02- How are you doing?- Yeah, all right. Not bad.- Sure?- Yeah, yeah. All good.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04BUZZING

0:04:04 > 0:04:07Apart from this bloody wasp!

0:04:07 > 0:04:09What's a wasp even doing awake at this time of year?

0:04:09 > 0:04:11Strange, isn't it?

0:04:11 > 0:04:14Sent here to hound me.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19Oh, tell you what...

0:04:19 > 0:04:21I went to see the jewel this week.

0:04:21 > 0:04:25- It's on temporary display at the British Museum.- No way! Already?

0:04:25 > 0:04:26How does it look?

0:04:28 > 0:04:30Well, I'll tell you what it looks like...

0:04:30 > 0:04:34It looks like a wild animal that's been trapped in a cage.

0:04:34 > 0:04:36What, you'd prefer it was still under the ground?

0:04:36 > 0:04:40Oh, I don't know, mate. I can't explain it.

0:04:40 > 0:04:44HE SIGHS They haven't even given it a name.

0:04:44 > 0:04:48It's called R5010ST78.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50Catchy(!)

0:04:50 > 0:04:53It's been prodded and poked and catalogued...

0:04:53 > 0:04:56Can't even remember what it felt like in my own hand.

0:04:56 > 0:05:00I'm giving a talk about it on Tuesday at the club. With slides.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Nice one. I'll be there.

0:05:03 > 0:05:07There's a journalist coming down to write about it for the local rag.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10- You've become quite the celebrity! - Oh, yeah.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13Thinking of bringing out a perfume range.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17- Your reward money?- Oh, it hasn't come through yet, but...

0:05:17 > 0:05:21it's all signed off. Cheque should be with me in the next few days.

0:05:21 > 0:05:22How much?

0:05:26 > 0:05:27STRANGLED YELL

0:05:27 > 0:05:28NNNNGGHHH!

0:05:28 > 0:05:30OHHHH!

0:05:30 > 0:05:31GAAAAHHHH! UUURGH!

0:05:31 > 0:05:33NNNNGHHH!

0:05:33 > 0:05:37Here, you can see an artist's impression of what it would

0:05:37 > 0:05:40have looked like with the shaft in place.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43It was probably cherry or rosewood.

0:05:43 > 0:05:48There may have been a leather strap attached,

0:05:48 > 0:05:51again, long since returned to the earth.

0:05:51 > 0:05:54There is talk of replacing the shaft at some point,

0:05:54 > 0:05:58but this is of course ongoing discussion.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00And finally...

0:06:00 > 0:06:02here she is.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05CLICKING Proudly in her place.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10Thank you. Thank you.

0:06:10 > 0:06:11A-Any questions?

0:06:11 > 0:06:13Who's that?

0:06:13 > 0:06:14What do you mean? It's...

0:06:14 > 0:06:16It's me!

0:06:16 > 0:06:19No, behind you.

0:06:25 > 0:06:26Dunno!

0:06:26 > 0:06:27WEIRD ZAPPING

0:06:27 > 0:06:29ALL EXCLAIM

0:06:31 > 0:06:33Lights, please, Sheila!

0:06:33 > 0:06:35- EXTINGUISHER WHOOSHES - Keep away from it!

0:06:35 > 0:06:37CRIES OF PROTEST

0:06:37 > 0:06:40- No! Russ!- Jesus!

0:06:40 > 0:06:45- For God's sake, Russell, I'm soaked! - Good work, you fucking idiot!

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Oh, that's all the thanks I get, is it?

0:06:47 > 0:06:51- You'd be happier in flames, would you? Honestly!- You all right?- Yeah.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54- I don't know why I bother sometimes. - Look at my jumper!

0:06:54 > 0:07:00- HUGH:- I... I didn't see it.- What did you see, Sheila?- Oh, here he is.

0:07:00 > 0:07:02You saw it, didn't you, Lance?

0:07:03 > 0:07:07- Saw what?- The hooded figure in the back of the picture.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09No, didn't see anything like that.

0:07:09 > 0:07:14- Well, then why did you go deathly white?- It was looking at you, Lance.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Don't say that, Sheila!

0:07:16 > 0:07:20Well, I was at the wrong angle, but if Sheila says she saw something...

0:07:21 > 0:07:23Sheila tends to...see things.

0:07:23 > 0:07:28- What sort of things?- Things that are...not of this world.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31Oh, brilliant! That's the last thing I need right now -

0:07:31 > 0:07:34a ghostly hooded monk following me around.

0:07:34 > 0:07:35Are you all right, Lance?

0:07:35 > 0:07:39I've noticed you've not had anything on the finds table for months.

0:07:39 > 0:07:42I haven't found anything since that aestel.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44Yeah, but, mate, that jewel is a once-in-a-lifetime.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47Nothing is ever going to compare to that, the usual buttons and...

0:07:47 > 0:07:51No, no. You don't understand. I have found NOTHING since then.

0:07:51 > 0:07:55Not a buckle, not a ring-pull, not even scrap!

0:07:57 > 0:08:00I get phantom signals, really good, strong signals,

0:08:00 > 0:08:03and they just disappear as soon as I start to dig.

0:08:03 > 0:08:07- It's the curse of the gold. - Shut up! No such thing.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09Don't be so sure.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11Remember what happened to Lenny Drinkwater

0:08:11 > 0:08:14when he found that Viking bracelet?

0:08:14 > 0:08:16He didn't fill in his hole.

0:08:16 > 0:08:20Beryl Cambridge stepped in the hole, breaks an ankle.

0:08:20 > 0:08:25- Break goes gangrene.- Leg comes off below the knee. Curse of the gold.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Well, it's not only that.

0:08:28 > 0:08:32I got hayfever for the first time in my life this summer.

0:08:32 > 0:08:37And I've started stumbling over rocks and tripping into nettles and...

0:08:37 > 0:08:40I can't remember birdsong any more.

0:08:40 > 0:08:42And then there's this! A wasp.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44In December?!

0:08:44 > 0:08:47You know the exact point it stung me?

0:08:47 > 0:08:48In the face?

0:08:50 > 0:08:53When you mentioned the reward money.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06SIGHS OF RELIEF AND CHUCKLING

0:09:06 > 0:09:10- I thought it was him for a moment! - So did I! I nearly shat meself.

0:09:12 > 0:09:16- I think you need to reconnect to the land, mate.- How?

0:09:16 > 0:09:19I think you need to go back to basics for a while.

0:09:19 > 0:09:24- Ditch the CTX, go for something simpler. Swap with Hugh.- VK30?!

0:09:24 > 0:09:27You said it yourself, it's a good solid detector.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29I don't mind trying the VK30, but...

0:09:31 > 0:09:34..I'm not sure about Hugh using the CTX.

0:09:34 > 0:09:39Now, come on, if this is about karma, you've got to do YOUR bit.

0:09:41 > 0:09:47- Fine.- Lance Slater?- Stater.- I've been sent down to interview you.

0:09:47 > 0:09:51Oh, yeah, we were...expecting you earlier on in the Scout Hut.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54- Oh. What's it about? - What's what about?

0:09:54 > 0:09:58- The article - what have you done? - Well, don't you know?

0:09:58 > 0:10:00Well, it'll be in my notes...

0:10:02 > 0:10:06- I've unearthed a gold aestel. - Hm?

0:10:06 > 0:10:07It's been acquired by the...

0:10:07 > 0:10:11Oh, that's it, the pirate treasure, got it. I'm at the bar, yeah?

0:10:16 > 0:10:19- Don't mention the curse. - There is no curse.

0:10:19 > 0:10:22Yeah, otherwise they'll latch onto it and make that the story.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25- "Local man haunted by sinister presence."- Yeah.

0:10:25 > 0:10:28There is no curse.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39So...

0:10:41 > 0:10:46- Remind me...what was it you found? - A late-Saxon jewelled aestel...

0:10:46 > 0:10:50It has to be in language a ten-year-old could understand.

0:10:50 > 0:10:57- Pardon?- Can't have too many big words.- Er...- Like Saxon.

0:10:57 > 0:10:59Oh, er... Well, it's a type of... jewel...

0:10:59 > 0:11:01- Gold?- Yeah.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04- Diamonds?- Garnets and glass.

0:11:04 > 0:11:08- I'll put diamonds. How much is it worth?- Um...it's, er...

0:11:08 > 0:11:12- Well, the final valuation hasn't come through yet.- Roughly.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15- They reckon about 50,000. - You get to keep all that?

0:11:15 > 0:11:18Half. It's split with the landowner.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21What are you going to buy?

0:11:21 > 0:11:24- To buy?!- With the money. Are you going to splash out?

0:11:24 > 0:11:28- I haven't thought about it yet. - Could we say holiday?- Um...

0:11:28 > 0:11:29Holiday of a lifetime.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32- Oh, OK.- Where?

0:11:32 > 0:11:36- Er... Dorset.- I'll put Australia. OK, that's great, cheers.

0:11:39 > 0:11:40JOURNALIST SMACKS HIS LIPS

0:11:43 > 0:11:45Hm.

0:11:55 > 0:11:56ENGINE SPLUTTERS

0:12:11 > 0:12:13Aaagh! Ohhh!

0:12:13 > 0:12:15D'oh!

0:12:15 > 0:12:16Agh!

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Ohhh!

0:12:21 > 0:12:23All right, Wayne? Jim about?

0:12:23 > 0:12:25I need him to look at my car.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27Jim's dead.

0:12:27 > 0:12:28Dead?!

0:12:29 > 0:12:30Yeah.

0:12:31 > 0:12:33- When?- Couple of weeks back.

0:12:33 > 0:12:37- Wh-Why didn't anyone tell me?! - Dunno.

0:12:38 > 0:12:41- What did he die of?- Dunno.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45There's a new mechanic - Toni.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47- Is he in?- Out there.

0:12:47 > 0:12:48Right.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57Hello? Tony?

0:12:57 > 0:12:59- WOMAN:- Yep, hello!

0:13:02 > 0:13:04With an I.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06- Pardon?- It's Toni with an I.

0:13:06 > 0:13:10- You were saying it with a Y. - I wasn't!- Yes, you were.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12- I'm Lance.- Nice to meet you.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15Oh... HE CHUCKLES

0:13:16 > 0:13:21- Yes, er, it's about my car. TR7? - Is that yours?- Yeah.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23I love that car.

0:13:23 > 0:13:27Thanks. Thank you. Yeah, er...

0:13:27 > 0:13:30- I normally do all the work on it myself.- What's the problem?

0:13:30 > 0:13:33- She keeps misfiring. It's got me stumped.- I can have a look now.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36- There's no hurry for this.- Cheers!

0:13:39 > 0:13:42- Haven't seen you around here before. - I usually do nights.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45- I'm at college during the day. - Oh! What are you studying?

0:13:45 > 0:13:47Agricultural college - farming.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49- You want to be a farmer? - That's the idea.

0:13:49 > 0:13:52I spend quite a lot of time on farmland myself.

0:13:52 > 0:13:54That sounds a bit creepy.

0:13:54 > 0:13:58- I'm a metal detectorist. - Oh, that's weird!- What?

0:13:59 > 0:14:02- I have no idea what one of those is. - Oh...

0:14:02 > 0:14:05- I thought you were going to say you were one too!- I know!

0:14:05 > 0:14:08That's what I wanted you to think I was going to say.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12It... It only happens now and then

0:14:12 > 0:14:15and then it mysteriously clears itself up.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17I was going to talk to Jim about it, but...

0:14:17 > 0:14:22I just discovered he's checked out on us, which is bloody inconvenient.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24He has ceased to be.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28He's expired and gone to meet his maker. He...

0:14:28 > 0:14:29is an ex-mechanic.

0:14:32 > 0:14:34He was your dad, wasn't he?

0:14:34 > 0:14:35Yes.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39Yes...

0:14:39 > 0:14:41I can see that now.

0:14:41 > 0:14:42You've got the same...

0:14:45 > 0:14:46..hands...

0:14:49 > 0:14:54- Sorry about that.- It's probably one of your carburettors.- You reckon?

0:14:54 > 0:14:55Probably. I'll have a look.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01- Want a cup of tea? - No, thanks.

0:15:04 > 0:15:05Yeah, I'll...

0:15:05 > 0:15:08HE MUMBLES

0:15:10 > 0:15:12I almost wish I'd never found that jewel.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17I wish I could go back to the days before I found gold.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19Come on, you don't really believe there is a curse, do you?

0:15:19 > 0:15:21Well, something's going on.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23I just want to find SOMETHING.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Small, the usual.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29Buttons and buckles, the occasional coin.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Here's Hugh.

0:15:33 > 0:15:38- So you're really going to do this? Hand over the CTX?- I'm up for it.

0:15:38 > 0:15:41Anything that gets me out from under this cloud.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44Probably do me good to downgrade for a bit.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47Prove it's not all about the equipment.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50Says Captain Equipment from the 25th century!

0:15:50 > 0:15:52Here he is, with his VK30.

0:15:52 > 0:15:56- All right? - Ready to try this baby?- Yeah.

0:15:56 > 0:16:00All right, you've got to make sure you get a good grip on it, all right?

0:16:00 > 0:16:01Have you got it?

0:16:01 > 0:16:03- Yeah.- Don't pull it, don't pull it, don't pull it.

0:16:03 > 0:16:07And always use the bungee for support. All right? Have you got it?

0:16:07 > 0:16:10- Yeah.- Yeah, cos it's heavier than what you're used to, you see?

0:16:10 > 0:16:12- So, have you got it?- Yeah.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14All right, I'm going to hand it over to you...

0:16:14 > 0:16:16now.

0:16:18 > 0:16:21Right, just...just use the factory default settings.

0:16:21 > 0:16:22Don't touch any of the buttons,

0:16:22 > 0:16:25cos I've got all my specialist settings stored in there.

0:16:25 > 0:16:27All right, mates, he knows how to use a detector.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29- Let him get on with it. - Yeah, all right.

0:16:29 > 0:16:32- Lunch at 12?- OK, then.- See ya.

0:16:39 > 0:16:40Hugh?

0:16:40 > 0:16:43Take care of her, mate.

0:16:43 > 0:16:44OK.

0:17:35 > 0:17:36CLICK

0:17:40 > 0:17:43Whoo-hoo!

0:17:43 > 0:17:47Hey, mate! Come and see what he's found!

0:17:47 > 0:17:48LAUGHTER

0:17:52 > 0:17:55- Come and have a look, mate. You won't believe it.- What have you got?

0:17:55 > 0:17:56It's my first hammered!

0:17:59 > 0:18:02Eddie II.

0:18:02 > 0:18:03Long Cross.

0:18:03 > 0:18:05Congratulations.

0:18:07 > 0:18:11- Sorry, Lance. Seems a bit rude. - No, it's not your fault, mate.

0:18:11 > 0:18:13It's the curse of the gold.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15Come on, you're not really swallowing that crud, are you?

0:18:15 > 0:18:18How else do you explain it? Proves it's me, not the detector.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21- Like the curse of Tutankhamen. - Exactly! That's well documented.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23I can't believe what I'm hearing.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26The Egyptian gods were angry that they were making

0:18:26 > 0:18:27money from the treasures.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30The curse only ended when they returned his mummy to the tomb.

0:18:30 > 0:18:33Right, well, we don't have a mummy or a tomb to return it to, so...

0:18:33 > 0:18:34Have to get it back.

0:18:34 > 0:18:36What's that?

0:18:36 > 0:18:38Nothing.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41- Right, pub?- Yeah.- Good.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44First hammered deserves a pint.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Are you planning on springing it from its glass case?

0:19:43 > 0:19:45What? No!

0:19:45 > 0:19:47- I'm joking!- Oh!

0:19:47 > 0:19:49Wait, you were, weren't you?

0:19:49 > 0:19:51No!

0:19:51 > 0:19:54I'm joking. Twice!

0:19:55 > 0:20:00- I'm Alan Chub. I was supposed to meet you last week.- Oh, right, yes!

0:20:00 > 0:20:03Forgot all about it. You came quite a long way, didn't you?

0:20:03 > 0:20:05- Quite a long way, yeah.- Yeah, good.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10Well, there it bloody well is, then!

0:20:10 > 0:20:13- Yes.- After 1,000 years, Mother Earth's secret unearthed.

0:20:13 > 0:20:16- Feels pretty good, doesn't it? - Not really.

0:20:16 > 0:20:20It just feels like she's got one less secret.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22I don't think I was supposed to find it.

0:20:22 > 0:20:24All those years under the earth,

0:20:24 > 0:20:27end up in a hermetically sealed glass box.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29Well, who's to say this is the end?

0:20:29 > 0:20:32This could be just another chapter in its story.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35It's got a fair few millennia left to go yet.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Oh, I spoke to the landowner this morning.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41He said he's received his half of the reward.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43- I'm assuming you've got the same. - What?

0:20:43 > 0:20:45No. I don't... I don't know.

0:20:45 > 0:20:48- I left before the post arrived.- Ah.

0:20:48 > 0:20:53- Well, Mr Roach got a cheque through the post for...- Don't... Don't say!

0:20:53 > 0:20:56- Oh! Why not? - Because something bad will happen.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59I'll get an electric shock or something will fall on us.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01What do you mean?

0:21:01 > 0:21:03Every time anyone mentions the money, something bad happens.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07Ah! You mean the curse of the gold.

0:21:08 > 0:21:09You believe in that?

0:21:09 > 0:21:12Look, if you're feeling bad about taking the money,

0:21:12 > 0:21:15we're always open to charitable donations here.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17I mean, we're far too busy to worry about curses.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20Probably half the things in here are cursed anyway.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23That's why we keep them hermetically sealed in glass cases -

0:21:23 > 0:21:27to keep the curses in and stop you from stealing things.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30- Oh, I wasn't going to...- I'm joking!

0:21:30 > 0:21:32- Three times!- Oh!

0:21:32 > 0:21:35Seriously, though, if you did want to give something back...

0:21:37 > 0:21:39You mean...

0:21:39 > 0:21:42- like...like a gift? - A gift, exactly.

0:21:44 > 0:21:45Yes!

0:21:47 > 0:21:49Yes! Thank you!

0:21:52 > 0:21:56- Call my office any time. - Thank you.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52COINS CHINK

0:23:28 > 0:23:31EERIE WIND SPRINGS UP

0:23:31 > 0:23:33BIRDSONG

0:23:40 > 0:23:43Blackbird.

0:23:57 > 0:23:58Hello?

0:23:58 > 0:24:00Hey!

0:24:00 > 0:24:03- All right?- Yeah, it's all done.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06- It was your head gasket. - Ah, brilliant!

0:24:06 > 0:24:07Thanks a lot.

0:24:10 > 0:24:11Listen, er...

0:24:12 > 0:24:16- About the other day... Sorry, I wasn't thinking.- Why? What happened?

0:24:16 > 0:24:18About your dad.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20What about him?

0:24:20 > 0:24:23I called him an ex-mechanic.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25Oh... Yeah.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28He wasn't really my dad.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33- What?- The old mechanic who died - Jim, was it?- Yeah.

0:24:33 > 0:24:37He wasn't really my dad. I never met him. I was joking.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Joking?!

0:24:43 > 0:24:46But I've been kicking myself all week about that!

0:24:46 > 0:24:48I actually, literally, kicked myself at one point.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51Not hard enough to leave a bruise but quite hard!

0:24:51 > 0:24:53It was you who said it was my dad, I just didn't deny it.

0:24:53 > 0:24:57You confirmed it! I asked if he was your dad and you said yes.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59Did I?

0:24:59 > 0:25:00Yes.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Sorry. I couldn't resist.

0:25:02 > 0:25:04It's unbelievable!

0:25:08 > 0:25:09I fixed your car.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14- Thanks a lot. How-How much do I owe you?- It's fine.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17You can have that one. Because of the joke.

0:25:20 > 0:25:22Do you want a cup of tea?

0:25:22 > 0:25:24Go on, then.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32- Sugar?- One, please.

0:25:50 > 0:25:55- So, flying out tomorrow?- Yep, in the evening.- When are you back?

0:25:55 > 0:26:00Probably not till next Christmas if the dig gets more funding.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02But I tell you what, mate, you should come out.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04- Yeah, I could do, couldn't I? - Absolutely!

0:26:04 > 0:26:08You should definitely come out. Stan would like to see you. And Becky.

0:26:08 > 0:26:12- I might just do that.- Use some of your reward money, splash out.

0:26:12 > 0:26:13Fly first class.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16Er... No, I... That's all gone.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21- Already? What did you spend it on?- Well...

0:26:21 > 0:26:23Not spent so much as invested.

0:26:25 > 0:26:27Long-term investment.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31- BEEPING - Ah! Here we go!

0:26:41 > 0:26:43Oh, there! There!

0:26:48 > 0:26:53- Bloody hell!- What have you got? - Hammered!- No!- A big 'un! Half groat.

0:26:53 > 0:26:57- There you go, then, mate, the curse is lifted!- It's one of the Henrys!

0:26:57 > 0:27:03- Which one?- Stand by. Henry VI, 1453.

0:27:03 > 0:27:05Long Cross.

0:27:05 > 0:27:06No marks on obverse.

0:27:06 > 0:27:10Two extra pellets on reverse! Boom!

0:27:10 > 0:27:12Check your hole.

0:27:14 > 0:27:19- All clear!- Replace plug.- Check!- Pub?

0:27:20 > 0:27:22Go on, then.

0:27:26 > 0:27:32So... There's this bloke at work... wants to ask this girl out.

0:27:33 > 0:27:38- He's been asking me for advice. - Oh, yeah?- Yeah, he's...

0:27:38 > 0:27:42he's worried in case she says no and he feels stupid.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44What did you advise him?

0:27:44 > 0:27:48Well...I told him he should just go for it. What's he got to lose?

0:27:48 > 0:27:50Absolutely. Just go for it.

0:27:52 > 0:27:54- You think that was good advice I gave him?- Yeah.

0:27:54 > 0:27:57If she says no, no big deal. At least he asked her.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02So then he was asking...

0:28:02 > 0:28:06If she said yes... where he should take her.

0:28:06 > 0:28:07Oh, right. What did you say?

0:28:07 > 0:28:10Well...I said...

0:28:10 > 0:28:14probably just down the pub, first date. Less formal than dinner.

0:28:14 > 0:28:19- Sounds like good advice you gave him.- Yeah?- Yeah, I reckon.

0:28:19 > 0:28:23I told him, he should just try and be himself. Relax.

0:28:23 > 0:28:24Yeah, spot-on.

0:28:24 > 0:28:27When is he going to ask her out?

0:28:28 > 0:28:32- This Wednesday, I reckon.- Yeah, well, tell him good luck from me.

0:28:32 > 0:28:34You don't know him.
