0:01:24 > 0:01:25Well, if you change your mind,

0:01:25 > 0:01:28I've got a Sexy Susan Boyle costume left over from last year.

0:01:28 > 0:01:30You'll have to comb through the fake eyebrows

0:01:30 > 0:01:32but other than that it's cushty.

0:01:33 > 0:01:34All right, Jack?

0:01:34 > 0:01:36What are you going as, Denise?

0:01:36 > 0:01:37An Egyptian lifeguard?

0:01:37 > 0:01:40Sexy Mother Theresa, actually.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Oh, well, now you've said it, it's obvious.

0:01:42 > 0:01:43So, have you got anything to confess?

0:01:43 > 0:01:46Aye, since the last time you saw this outfit,

0:01:46 > 0:01:47I've sewn up the knickers.

0:01:47 > 0:01:52Oh! And you are done.

0:01:52 > 0:01:53Jesus.

0:01:53 > 0:01:54She's so in your face,

0:01:54 > 0:01:56she's virtually poking out the back of your head.

0:01:56 > 0:01:58Am I always going to be reminded that you went out

0:01:58 > 0:02:00with your sister's best friend?

0:02:00 > 0:02:01Don't let Denise get to you.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03All right, I went out with her, but I married you.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06Yeah, I suppose.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Look, I'm sorry about all this.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11It's not exactly what I had in mind for us.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14By now, I thought we'd have a place in the country, cinema room,

0:02:14 > 0:02:15butler wandering about.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18Not be back here with me mam and dad, paper thin walls

0:02:18 > 0:02:21and the ghost of slappermas past.

0:02:21 > 0:02:24'I'm not a ghost, I'm Mother Theresa.'

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Look, we should be grateful.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30Your mum's going to a lot of trouble for my parents.

0:02:30 > 0:02:32She knows more about being Jewish than I do.

0:02:32 > 0:02:33And I've spent my whole life being it.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36MUSIC: "HAVA NAGILA"

0:02:36 > 0:02:37Oh, not again.

0:02:45 > 0:02:46Why do we have to wear these?

0:02:46 > 0:02:49- What?- The gloves.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Why do we have to wear the gloves?

0:02:53 > 0:02:56Because if that girl's going to be living under our roof,

0:02:56 > 0:02:59I want her parents to know we are abiding by their culture.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01They're Jewish, Pauline. Not health inspectors.

0:03:01 > 0:03:04And they have rules, Joe! About food preparation!

0:03:04 > 0:03:07There's nothing the internet knows that I don't about Judaism.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09And the last thing these people want is our gentile paws all

0:03:09 > 0:03:11over their dinner.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13- We don't want to kvetch them, not today.- You what?

0:03:17 > 0:03:20Look at me, this is me, proper kvetched.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31I don't like it round here. It looks very rough.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36- Excuse me? - What are you doing?!

0:03:36 > 0:03:38Asking for directions.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Y'after?

0:03:59 > 0:04:01I canna do it all in one night.

0:04:01 > 0:04:02I'm not Santa.

0:04:02 > 0:04:07I'm sorry, we don't carry treats around on the off-chance.

0:04:07 > 0:04:09We're actually looking for the Pearson house.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38I've got some change down here.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08Sorry about the classic Hebburn weather, like.

0:08:10 > 0:08:12- Give us your coats. - I'm fine, thanks.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15- Joe's already making you a cuppa. - Could I have a coffee?

0:08:15 > 0:08:17Joe!

0:08:17 > 0:08:19Susan's changed her mind, she'd prefer coffee!

0:08:19 > 0:08:22I don't think we've got any!

0:08:22 > 0:08:24Yes, we do, Joe!

0:08:24 > 0:08:25I got some in yesterday!

0:08:28 > 0:08:30- Pantry?- Yes.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32Next to the refrigerator!

0:08:32 > 0:08:35Ah, by the library in the east wing?

0:08:36 > 0:08:39Please feel free to ignore Joe, I find it's best.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42Howay, we'll take you into the good room.

0:08:43 > 0:08:44Thank you.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Not everyone gets to come in here, you know?

0:08:49 > 0:08:50Yes, I can see why.

0:08:51 > 0:08:53So, here we are then.

0:08:53 > 0:08:57It's not much, but we all fit in, don't we, Sarah?

0:08:57 > 0:08:58Yeah, pretty much.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00You've been very brave with your colours, Pauline.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Oh, thank you, Susan.

0:09:02 > 0:09:05We would have had Sarah and Jack to stay with us.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08But after the kids left, we decided we didn't need the BIG house

0:09:08 > 0:09:11any more, so we downsized to the bungalow.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13We're fine here, Mum.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16Pauline's made us feel very welcome.

0:09:16 > 0:09:19Oh, you've no worries leaving your Sarah here with us.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21This is a very traditional, family environment.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23Mam, have you got any more ribbon?

0:09:24 > 0:09:28- Erm....in the kitchen drawer, I think, pet.- All right.

0:09:28 > 0:09:29- You all right?- Hello.

0:09:35 > 0:09:36Are they your daughters?

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Just the one without the beard.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45- Do you want a hand with the drinks, Dad?- No ta, son.

0:09:45 > 0:09:48It's all become much easier now we've got a pantry.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50What are you after?

0:09:50 > 0:09:53I need a bigger bow for me hair, I'm Sexy Snow White.

0:09:53 > 0:09:57- I'm going to be a sexy, tall dwarf. - Presumably not Bashful?

0:09:57 > 0:09:59Is there one called Skanky?

0:09:59 > 0:10:03Hey, do you remember when me and you won the fancy dress, Jack?

0:10:03 > 0:10:05As Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears?

0:10:05 > 0:10:07Aye, dead authentic that because when they split up,

0:10:07 > 0:10:10- she went off her nut and all. - I never shaved me head!

0:10:11 > 0:10:13Have you done fancy dress, Dad?

0:10:13 > 0:10:16Well, I wanted to be Robbie Williams for the night.

0:10:16 > 0:10:18But your mam wouldn't entertain it.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24That was very good.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26So they said it should be fairly straight forward

0:10:26 > 0:10:28to transfer my PHD to Newcastle University.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31- I didn't know Newcastle had a university.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34- Is that a new thing? - No, I think they've always had it.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37Ben, Susan, this is me dad - Joe.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39Lovely to meet you, I'm Susan, this is Ben.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42Sit, down, sit down.

0:10:42 > 0:10:44In this house you only need to stand up if you arse is on fire.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46Oh, lovely.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49Aperitifs for the thirsty.

0:10:49 > 0:10:50I've done sandwiches for later.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53Kosher and halal just so there's no favouritism.

0:10:53 > 0:10:54That's your coffee there, flower.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56Hope it's all right.

0:10:56 > 0:11:00Yeah, the water up here's a little bit different to York - it's a bit more tangy.

0:11:00 > 0:11:01How was your drive up, Ben?

0:11:01 > 0:11:03Oh, no, no traffic talk, Joe.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Actually, Susan does all the driving.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07Oh, right.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Susan was just telling me about their downsized bungalow.

0:11:09 > 0:11:13What's a downsized bungalow look like? Is it just a roof?

0:11:14 > 0:11:16No, we downsized to the bungalow

0:11:16 > 0:11:18from a bigger house that we used to have.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Err...

0:11:20 > 0:11:22Joe was joking, Dad, he does that.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26- Ben used to do that, didn't you, when we first met?

0:11:27 > 0:11:30I don't bother with that much now.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36It's really great that we could all get together like this.

0:11:36 > 0:11:38It's so nice.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41And to think, we were worried you might be a bit awkward.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44- Imagine that. - But we're just...

0:11:44 > 0:11:45Getting on like a bungalow on fire, eh, Ben?

0:11:55 > 0:11:57Right, seeing as this is all going so well,

0:11:57 > 0:12:00I'd best go and spring me mam from the retirement village.

0:12:01 > 0:12:04We call it "Grantanamo Bay" but she doesn't laugh.

0:12:09 > 0:12:11I'll come give you a hand, find out which dead celebrity

0:12:11 > 0:12:13has been visiting her in her sleep this week.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17- Sarah?- Thank you.

0:14:32 > 0:14:36How many photos did you say you could fit on your iPad?

0:14:36 > 0:14:38- Thousands.- Oh, wonderful.

0:14:39 > 0:14:40So many.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Well, that's enough photos now, Mum.

0:14:42 > 0:14:44She'll be getting out the dental records next.

0:14:44 > 0:14:48And of course our other daughter works overseas.

0:14:48 > 0:14:51She helps impoverished people get into education.

0:14:51 > 0:14:54Our Vicki used to work overseas - Magaluf.

0:14:54 > 0:14:56Helping people get in the clubs.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01She just works in the local florist now.

0:15:01 > 0:15:03There's no just about it. At least she's got a job.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05Not like Jack.

0:15:05 > 0:15:06He's impulsive.

0:15:07 > 0:15:08"Follow your heart."

0:15:08 > 0:15:11That's what we've always told our kids, chase your dreams.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14Well, there's impulsive and just plain foolish, isn't there?

0:15:14 > 0:15:18Quitting his job before he'd even signed off on his book deal?

0:15:18 > 0:15:21They've got no money, they've had to sell the car.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23It was just the same when we were in Vegas.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26Mum!

0:15:26 > 0:15:27You promised!

0:15:30 > 0:15:32You were there? At the wedding?

0:15:32 > 0:15:35We decided to use the money from the downsizing

0:15:35 > 0:15:37to join the kids in Vegas.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40I'm so sorry, Pauline.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42We honestly didn't go out there planning to get married.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45No, not at all.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48We were all a few sheets to the wind.

0:15:48 > 0:15:52Do you remember, Susan? When you laughed?

0:15:54 > 0:15:56I'm so sorry, Pauline, I didn't mean to put my foot in it.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58It doesn't matter.

0:15:59 > 0:16:00It's nothing...

0:16:00 > 0:16:02I mean, it's not as if it's a big thing...

0:16:09 > 0:16:11What are they like, then?

0:16:11 > 0:16:13The Jewish shoe people?

0:16:13 > 0:16:15They're people, Gran, just like everybody else.

0:16:15 > 0:16:20I know that, I'm not a bloody bigot.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22I knew a Jew once.

0:16:22 > 0:16:23Do you think they'll know him?

0:16:23 > 0:16:25Let's not ask and just assume they don't, eh?

0:16:25 > 0:16:27Yeah, so have you got everything?

0:16:27 > 0:16:30Hang on, I'll just kiss Tigger before we go.

0:16:30 > 0:16:33She kisses that thing more than she's ever kissed me.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36Considering how loose her false teeth are, you want to count your blessings, mate.

0:16:36 > 0:16:40Cheeky buggers. Come on then, Joseph.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43You've left Sarah's parents alone with your wife

0:16:43 > 0:16:46and you know how she rubs people up the wrong way.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49- No, that's you that does that. - And leave the light on.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52Tigger doesn't like being in the dark on his own.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55He might not like the dark, but I bet he loves being on his own.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59Vicki Pearson, ladies and gentlemen.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01- MAN:- Fix!

0:17:01 > 0:17:03FAINT APPLAUSE AND BOOS

0:17:03 > 0:17:06You was robbed there mate, robbed!

0:17:06 > 0:17:08- MAN:- She looks nowt like her!

0:17:08 > 0:17:12I'd just like to say, that winning this award

0:17:12 > 0:17:17- for the third year running, is, as usual, a total surprise. MAN:- Get off the stage.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19- MAN:- Get off!- WOMAN:- Fix!

0:17:19 > 0:17:21- MAN:- Taxi booked for you, howay!

0:17:21 > 0:17:24I reckon you should have won that. You look amazing.

0:17:24 > 0:17:28Yeah? Well, you look like a thick geography teacher.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30What are you supposed to be?

0:17:30 > 0:17:32I'm Doctor Who. I thought you would have loved it, Denise.

0:17:32 > 0:17:36- Last year you told Vicki you always dreamed of ending up with a doctor. - When did I say that?

0:17:36 > 0:17:39When you were over by the Gambler...last summer.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41And your hair looked lush, like damp, brown straw.

0:17:43 > 0:17:46Eee!

0:17:47 > 0:17:48Eh!

0:17:48 > 0:17:51It's a shame there's not a second prize, Denise -

0:17:51 > 0:17:52you could've won that.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55Aye, second prize - story of my life.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57Don't be like that, Denise man, you should be happy for us.

0:17:57 > 0:18:00Like when Cheryl won FHM's Sexiest Woman Of The Year

0:18:00 > 0:18:03and the rest of Girls Aloud were dead chuffed for her.

0:18:03 > 0:18:05Cos they knew it didn't mean that they were munters.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08Just that in comparison,

0:18:08 > 0:18:12they were slightly munter-ish.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15Aye. I'm over the moon.

0:18:15 > 0:18:16Aw, don't be down hearted, Denise.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18Given the choice, I'd go munter every time.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23- I- suppose we'd best get back.

0:18:23 > 0:18:25Mind, that Ben's a bit of a laugh, isn't he?

0:18:25 > 0:18:27What does he do for an encore? His tax return?

0:18:27 > 0:18:29It can't easy for him though.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31Susan is a bit uptight and controlling.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34Son, your mam is uptight and controlling

0:18:34 > 0:18:37but compared to Susan, she's like Winnie the Pooh.

0:18:37 > 0:18:38Hey, I hope that thing

0:18:38 > 0:18:40about women turning into their mothers isn't true.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42Oh, no, that's nonsense, pet.

0:18:42 > 0:18:45Look at my mam - she was a nosey, interfering, old cow.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48We're lucky that skipped a generation then(!)

0:18:49 > 0:18:51Listen, pet, about your new wedding...

0:18:51 > 0:18:54You ARE going to do it properly, aren't you?

0:18:54 > 0:18:57None of this new-fangled, metro-sexy, business

0:18:57 > 0:18:59where the groom looks like the bride

0:18:59 > 0:19:02and the bride looks like Lady-bloody-Gaga.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04God, no, it's just going to be a little service.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07Sarah's not Bridezilla and I'm not Groom Kong.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09- Buttercup Yellow.- What?

0:19:09 > 0:19:13It's not a colour you see enough of on a bridesmaid

0:19:13 > 0:19:17but I think your bridesmaids would be a vision in Buttercup Yellow.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19Gran, I don't know if we're going to have bridesmaids.

0:19:19 > 0:19:20It's just going to be a small do.

0:19:20 > 0:19:25No, no, you want a traditional do.

0:19:25 > 0:19:30So that by the end, every single person is crying their eyes out.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32I feel like crying now.

0:19:32 > 0:19:36Mam, it'll not be a wedding as such, it's a blessing.

0:19:36 > 0:19:39Next you'll be telling me that Jack won't be wearing a top hat.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42The thing is, Gran, I'm not really about top hats.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45I think they tend to make people look like dicks.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49A well-deserved win.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51- A lovely little Nigella. - Stop it.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55But you enjoyed my dwarf work too?

0:19:56 > 0:19:59Oh, amazing pet. You towered over the other dwarves.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02Me Shreksy was better but Vicki said I don't suit green.

0:20:02 > 0:20:07I told you, Denise, it made you look all bloated like a toad, pet,

0:20:07 > 0:20:10dwarf is much more dignified.

0:20:10 > 0:20:11DRUNKEN SHOUTING AND CHEERING

0:20:13 > 0:20:15Boo!

0:20:15 > 0:20:17Oh, brilliant, the Jarrow lads.

0:20:17 > 0:20:22Come on, A Little Less Conversation, shift it, I need a drink.

0:20:22 > 0:20:24Just come to join your party, like.

0:20:24 > 0:20:27Hey, Dazza, let's not bother going on that pub crawl.

0:20:27 > 0:20:30Let's just stay here all night.

0:20:30 > 0:20:31You're not welcome.

0:20:37 > 0:20:41And what are you going to doop-a-dee-doo about it?

0:20:42 > 0:20:44Nowt.

0:20:44 > 0:20:45Nowt.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53You want to have another wedding!?

0:20:53 > 0:20:55It's only fair, Mum.

0:20:55 > 0:20:56You were at our first one

0:20:56 > 0:20:59and Pauline just wants to watch her son get marr...

0:20:59 > 0:21:04Ah, the klutz, Susan, the brave, romantic klutz that he is.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06But love makes klutzes of us all, doesn't it, Ben?

0:21:06 > 0:21:09I mean, you must've been a bit of a klutz when you fell for Susan?

0:21:11 > 0:21:12What kind of wedding?

0:21:12 > 0:21:14Something a little more traditional.

0:21:14 > 0:21:18Where Jack isn't dressed as Elvis and I'm not retching into a potted palm.

0:21:19 > 0:21:23Nothing fancy - just family, all together.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25A little service and then a party in Hebburn.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27- York.- Sorry, Susan?- York.

0:21:27 > 0:21:31It's traditional to have the wedding where the bride is from, isn't it?

0:21:31 > 0:21:34Tradition goes out the window when you're in Vegas, doesn't it?

0:21:34 > 0:21:35If we're getting all traditional,

0:21:35 > 0:21:38doesn't it say the bride's family have to pay for the wedding?

0:21:38 > 0:21:42- We don't have any liquid assets at the moment.- Ah.

0:21:42 > 0:21:45I was saying this at the weekly budget meeting, wasn't I, Ben?

0:21:45 > 0:21:47Yes. I used to play golf on Wednesday but...

0:21:47 > 0:21:49But it was decided the budget meeting

0:21:49 > 0:21:52- was a better use of Ben's time. - JOE:- Hello? We're back!

0:21:52 > 0:21:54I better just make sure Joe's mother's all right.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56Everyone all right for coffee?

0:21:56 > 0:21:58Good.

0:21:58 > 0:22:01Joe, kitchen. Jack, take your gran into the good room.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03Well, good afternoon to you too, Pauline,

0:22:03 > 0:22:05I see you've got your angry face on.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07So it's obviously going as well as we all expected.

0:22:07 > 0:22:11Oh, well, I'm sure you'll sort it all out now you're here, Kofi Annan.

0:22:11 > 0:22:14I'm not even going to pretend to understand that.

0:22:14 > 0:22:18- Right! Wheel me at them. - Everything all right, flower?

0:22:18 > 0:22:19- They were in Vegas!- Who was?

0:22:19 > 0:22:22Sarah's mam and dad! They were there when they got married!

0:22:22 > 0:22:24Can you believe it!?

0:22:24 > 0:22:27Jack did say they were drunk. I don't think they were thinking.

0:22:27 > 0:22:28Joe, you don't think, full stop.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31Never mind not thinking what they're not thinking!

0:22:31 > 0:22:33Will you calm down? They seem perfectly nice to me.

0:22:33 > 0:22:35Nice to you, Joe? You've hardly been here!

0:22:35 > 0:22:38And to think, I spent half the day making them lokshen pudding!

0:22:38 > 0:22:41What's lokshen pudding, like? I've never heard of it.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43Neither had I, until two o'clock this morning,

0:22:43 > 0:22:45when Google spat it out!

0:22:45 > 0:22:47I, Joe, am a mensch but that yenta

0:22:47 > 0:22:50is treating me like a schmendrick!

0:22:50 > 0:22:51Pauline! Stop speaking Yiddish?

0:22:51 > 0:22:55- I can't understand a word you're saying!- Oy vey!

0:22:55 > 0:22:58- JARROW LADS SINGING: - # Jarrow lads, we are here,

0:22:58 > 0:23:00# Shag your women, drink your beer! #

0:23:01 > 0:23:03Go and do something, Gervaise!

0:23:03 > 0:23:06What happened to it being "your house"?

0:23:06 > 0:23:08I'm a lover, not a fighter, man.

0:23:09 > 0:23:10USES ASTHMA INHALER

0:23:10 > 0:23:12Right, I'll sort this out.

0:23:12 > 0:23:13Denise man, don't.

0:23:13 > 0:23:14Oi!

0:23:14 > 0:23:18This is our pub and we are trying to have a party.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21We're not interested in your war-mongering ways

0:23:21 > 0:23:22or your smell of damp washing.

0:23:22 > 0:23:26So I think it was about time you were buggering off back to Jarrow.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28Hash tag "just saying".

0:23:28 > 0:23:32Oh, what's this, one of the famous bearded women of Hebburn

0:23:32 > 0:23:35- we've heard about? - Nah, actually, I'm Sleepy.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37Well, why didn't you just say so?

0:23:37 > 0:23:40You can come back to my bed for a little heigh-ho.

0:23:42 > 0:23:46Someone needs to do something, now.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50- You touching my lass? - Wait, I was just...- Hang on a sec.

0:23:52 > 0:23:54You are my lass, aren't you?

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Aye, I am.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01She's my lass! I mean...

0:24:01 > 0:24:04Right, you've had your fun, now howay - on your way.

0:24:04 > 0:24:05Or what?

0:24:05 > 0:24:09Or me and you are gonna go round and round like a...

0:24:10 > 0:24:12..roundabout.

0:24:12 > 0:24:14Listen, if you don't sit back down and shut up,

0:24:14 > 0:24:18me and me brothers here are going to introduce your face to your arse.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25If you wouldn't mind, wor lass?

0:24:25 > 0:24:28If you'll excuse us, I've got an appointment with me arse.

0:24:35 > 0:24:39Oh, I was just saying, Pauline, that I never liked you

0:24:39 > 0:24:41when we first met either.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45Did I hear that there was lokshen pudding on offer?

0:24:46 > 0:24:48Joe, I think it's time your mam went back to the home.

0:24:48 > 0:24:52She's just got here, think of that wheelchair's carbon footprint!

0:24:52 > 0:24:54Howay, Mam, I think you've probably done enough.

0:24:54 > 0:24:58But I was just saying that she grew on us...like mould.

0:25:00 > 0:25:03Well, penicillin's a mould, people love that!

0:25:04 > 0:25:06I'm sorry if you overheard me outburst

0:25:06 > 0:25:08but I think we should sort out, calmly,

0:25:08 > 0:25:09where this wedding is going to be.

0:25:09 > 0:25:12It has to be York - there is no other way.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14Of course.

0:25:14 > 0:25:18There's only the Susan way, we haven't even asked Ben.

0:25:18 > 0:25:20Ben, are you allowed an opinion?

0:25:20 > 0:25:23Well, we could compromise.

0:25:23 > 0:25:25No, Ben, we couldn't, be quiet.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27Right, enough! What are you arguing about?

0:25:27 > 0:25:29- Your special day, Sarah. - Your special day, our Sarah.

0:25:29 > 0:25:32But it's not up to either of you anyway!

0:25:32 > 0:25:33You're not paying for it.

0:25:33 > 0:25:36Me and Jack are going to have to save up and do it ourselves.

0:25:36 > 0:25:39And then maybe, just maybe, we'll think about inviting you.

0:25:39 > 0:25:41But unless someone can actually pay for it,

0:25:41 > 0:25:43we're a long way off any kind of "special day".

0:25:44 > 0:25:46- - I'll pay for your wedding. - What?

0:25:46 > 0:25:48I'll pay for your wedding,

0:25:48 > 0:25:51I love a wedding, don't you?

0:25:51 > 0:25:54- Mam, you haven't got any money. - Who hasn't?

0:25:55 > 0:25:59I've got more money than you and Mrs Shoe-shop put together.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01Gran, you don't even have a bank account.

0:26:01 > 0:26:04You only recently stopped trying to use your ration book.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06Joe, check if she's got her pills mixed up again.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08We might have to take her to the hospital.

0:26:08 > 0:26:09I'm going nowhere!

0:26:09 > 0:26:13I keep me money where I know it'll be safe - inside me Tigger.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16That's not Geordie slang for something, is it?

0:26:16 > 0:26:18No, it's not, you cheeky mare.

0:26:19 > 0:26:23He's me porcelain tiger, I've had him since Joe was born.

0:26:23 > 0:26:25He's got all sorts inside him.

0:26:25 > 0:26:27Liquorice All Sorts?

0:26:27 > 0:26:30No, stuff your grandad used to bring home off the ships.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35South Sea pearls, silver dollars, Krugerrands.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38Mind, there's no euros in there.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40- I won't have them in the house. - Are you serious?

0:26:40 > 0:26:43No, Joe, I'm joking.

0:26:43 > 0:26:47I'm an 84-year-old woman who's carted a porcelain tiger

0:26:47 > 0:26:50round for the last 50 years because it was filled with nothing(!)

0:26:50 > 0:26:53But...why didn't you use it when we needed it?

0:26:53 > 0:26:55Like when Dad left?

0:26:55 > 0:26:58I knew that me and you would be all right.

0:26:58 > 0:27:02I was keeping it for me grandkids for when they needed it.

0:27:02 > 0:27:04And I think one of them needs it now.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07Really? You'll pay for our wedding?

0:27:07 > 0:27:09I will...

0:27:09 > 0:27:11but there's some conditions.

0:27:13 > 0:27:15Firstly...

0:27:15 > 0:27:16it's going to be in Hebburn.

0:27:16 > 0:27:20Oh, what a lovely idea.
