Who invented Christmas, anyway? | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
The sparkly lights, the happy carollers, | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
the rosy-cheeked children - God help us! | 0:00:20 | 0:00:23 | |
Where's my spit bowl? | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
IT'S CHRISTMAS! | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
Oh, my God! Ho-ho-ho, Ben! | 0:00:30 | 0:00:33 | |
Go-go-go, Roger! | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
Don't be such a grumpy old Scrooge! | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
For your information, | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
Scrooge was very much the misunderstood hero of that book... | 0:00:40 | 0:00:44 | |
until the end, when Dickens copped out and made him nice. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:48 | |
Are you like this every year? I believe in tradition. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
Why are you dressed like that? I'm going carolling with the accountants on the top floor. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:56 | |
I didn't know accountants celebrated Christmas. Want to come? | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
We still need a good countertenor. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
Ooh...no. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
Don't you have patients? I've closed the surgery early - for Christmas. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:09 | |
Are you totally insane? This is our busiest time of the year! | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
All the cracked teeth from the nuts, the smashed mouths from the office party punch-ups... | 0:01:12 | 0:01:18 | |
Yes, this is the dentists' season to be jolly. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:22 | |
Oh, bah, humbug! | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
Don't you ever do that again. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
Christmas isn't just about making money, Mr Scroogey. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:35 | |
If I'd wanted something pointless hanging in my surgery, Roger, I'd use you. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:41 | |
I see. And don't give me the puppy eyes. You knew I was evil when you took the surgery upstairs. Touche. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:47 | |
Roger, I know you mean well, but I just want to be left alone this Christmas. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:51 | |
I just wanna coast through. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
I'm still recovering from all the mirth of last year. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
So when you see me out in the hall, don't ho-ho-ho me or ding-dong-merrily me. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:02 | |
Can I Good-King-Wenceslas you? | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
Susan! I thought we had a deal that you'd warn me when the in-laws were coming. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:25 | |
Susan! Oh! I'm glad you're here. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
I'd like to introduce you to Cheerful Charlie Chortle, Uncle Maurice | 0:02:29 | 0:02:33 | |
and the Amazing Beppo. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
Well, if they're here, who's running the country? | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
TOY BUZZES | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
Why do you guys always do that? | 0:02:42 | 0:02:43 | |
What is this, some sort of clown law? | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
Susan, could I, erm, have a word with you, please? | 0:02:45 | 0:02:48 | |
Anything you have to say can be said in front of my clowns. Now! Oh, all right. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:52 | |
Take five, boys. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
Lovely juggling. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:56 | |
SMASH, BANGS AND GLASS SHATTERS | 0:02:57 | 0:03:01 | |
What IS going on? I'm auditioning clowns. Want to be considered? | 0:03:01 | 0:03:05 | |
We're celebrating Kenzo's birthday on Christmas Eve. What? | 0:03:05 | 0:03:09 | |
I want to make it special, cos it always gets overshadowed by Christmas. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
Well, that's a good thing! That way, we just buy him the one present. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:17 | |
Conceiving illegitimately in March was the best thing Janey ever did. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:20 | |
At the moment, I'm leaning towards Uncle Maurice. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
Which one was he? Blue hat, big feet, red nose. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
Loved him. Yep. But he reeked of booze. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
It's not booze, Ben, it's meths. Oh, that's fine(!) Kids love meths. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:32 | |
He does fire-eating, Ben. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
How do you like your kids - medium rare or extra crispy? | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
So NOW you start to care about children. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
You know, it seems like only yesterday when it was Janey's third birthday. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:43 | |
When in fact it was tens of thousands of pounds ago. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:46 | |
Can't we knock Kenzo out with some cough medicine and tell him he had a party? | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
Why don't I just give you cough medicine and tell you you had a wife? | 0:03:50 | 0:03:54 | |
Listen, we're having this party and it'll be wonderful, even if you're there. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:58 | |
Will you excuse me? I have three clowns waiting. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
I'm sorry, once we've decided which one's right for the party, we'll let you know. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:07 | |
Ignore him, Mum. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:09 | |
It's all right, Susan, I'm used to Ben's cruelty masquerading as wit. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:13 | |
By the way, you have three old boyfriends in the living room. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:17 | |
Ha-ha-ha! Very good, Gracie. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
Always leave on a good one. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:21 | |
See you sometime in the new year. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
Ben, you know my mother's staying for Christmas. Then why is she dressed for Halloween? | 0:04:23 | 0:04:29 | |
Now, who wants a gin and tonic? I do! | 0:04:29 | 0:04:32 | |
We're out of gin. The refineries haven't caught up since your last visit. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:36 | |
Maybe I'll take my broomstick up to that charming little corner shop. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:41 | |
You mean the off-licence? Is it? | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
I hadn't noticed! | 0:04:44 | 0:04:45 | |
Don't even think of locking that door! | 0:04:45 | 0:04:47 | |
Locking it? I was thinking of bricking it up. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
Oh, Ben, the poor woman's all alone. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:52 | |
All her friends have died off. Even her cat ran away. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
Yeah, yeah, and made you feel guilty. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
Yep. Look, she's like a horror film. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
If we don't stick together, she'll pick us off one at a time. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
OK, I'm gonna have a nap. With any luck, I won't wake up. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:06 | |
Don't look for your presents. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:07 | |
What do you mean? I thought we weren't gonna do them this year. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
It's just something small. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:12 | |
God! | 0:05:14 | 0:05:15 | |
God, take me now! | 0:05:17 | 0:05:19 | |
Oh, yes! | 0:05:24 | 0:05:26 | |
Yeah! I'm not taking my shoes off, Susan. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
OK? Just take that, baby! | 0:05:29 | 0:05:31 | |
OK, I'll take one off. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:32 | |
OK. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:35 | |
I wonder where the presents are?! | 0:05:41 | 0:05:43 | |
She's so predictable! | 0:05:48 | 0:05:51 | |
Hello, presents! | 0:05:54 | 0:05:57 | |
Yes, I wonder what socks I'm gonna have to pretend to like this year. | 0:05:57 | 0:06:01 | |
That'll be Janey. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
No, that's Michael. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:13 | |
Something small, she said, and something small... | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
?1,200? | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
All I got her was an ironing-board cover. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:26 | |
Maybe it's not for me. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:30 | |
Oo-oo-oo-oh. "To the man who rocks my world." | 0:06:30 | 0:06:36 | |
It's for me. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:38 | |
It IS for me. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:41 | |
Oh, my God! | 0:06:41 | 0:06:42 | |
KNOCKING ON DOOR Come in! | 0:06:46 | 0:06:48 | |
What do you think, Dad? | 0:06:50 | 0:06:52 | |
Do you do hen nights? | 0:06:53 | 0:06:55 | |
I'm a postman. Ah! | 0:06:55 | 0:06:56 | |
It's my Christmas job. The one you forced me to get. | 0:06:56 | 0:06:59 | |
I-I did that? Oh! | 0:06:59 | 0:07:01 | |
Well, I AM a good parent. Michael... | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
Erm, a little problem. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:06 | |
A little problem... | 0:07:06 | 0:07:08 | |
A tiny disparity between what I've spent on your mother's present | 0:07:08 | 0:07:12 | |
and what she's spent on mine. How tiny? | 0:07:12 | 0:07:15 | |
?1,197.53. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:20 | |
You didn't get her a tea towel again? | 0:07:20 | 0:07:22 | |
It was tea towels, Michael, tea towels. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:25 | |
What did you get her, then? An ironing-board cover(?) | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
Look, it doesn't matter what it is. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:29 | |
And without that cover, that ironing board would get burned, Michael, and burned very badly. OK? | 0:07:29 | 0:07:34 | |
Now, what do you think she'd want instead? | 0:07:34 | 0:07:37 | |
I mean, you talk to her, and stuff. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:38 | |
Well, how about an Xbox? | 0:07:38 | 0:07:40 | |
Nah. She doesn't get off on those kind of films. God knows, I've tried. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:44 | |
That's the sort of thought you should keep inside your head. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:49 | |
Come on, Michael, help me. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:50 | |
What could I give your mother that she'd REALLY want? | 0:07:50 | 0:07:53 | |
Well... And don't say, "Her freedom." Oh. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:57 | |
In that case, I have nothing. | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
You know, Mother, you shouldn't mix the grape with the grain. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
They do in muesli. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
You've put that ring of mine away safely, haven't you, Susan? Yes... | 0:08:08 | 0:08:12 | |
Are you sure you want to give a man you've just met an expensive present like that? | 0:08:12 | 0:08:16 | |
Yes. I want to hang on to him. The sex is fantastic! | 0:08:16 | 0:08:21 | |
Mother, please, I intend to eat some time today. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:24 | |
No, no, this is getting good. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
Grandma? Mm? | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
Have you got yourself a toy boy? | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
He's somewhat younger than me, yes. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
Yoda is younger than you. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
Erm, just popping out, OK? Just a little late Christmas shopping. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:39 | |
Dad, Gran's got herself a toy boy! | 0:08:39 | 0:08:41 | |
Really? Is his guide dog nice? You can ask him yourself. I've invited him for Christmas dinner. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:48 | |
Ben, start the car! | 0:08:48 | 0:08:51 | |
Janey, we have to talk about Kenzo's party. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:54 | |
Why do you have to take control of everything? | 0:08:54 | 0:08:57 | |
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that. What was your plan for the party? | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
Erm... | 0:09:00 | 0:09:02 | |
Your plan sounds good. Let's go with that. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
You know the only reason she's doing this is because she forgot your third birthday? | 0:09:04 | 0:09:10 | |
Mother! You forgot my third birthday? | 0:09:10 | 0:09:12 | |
I had three children under five. You were lucky I remembered to bring you in at night. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:17 | |
I never forgot YOUR birthday. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
That's only because it coincided with the Munich Beer Festival. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:23 | |
Kenzo's having a party that no-one will forget. Anyone want a gin and tonic? I do. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:29 | |
Now, Janey, what are we going to do about Kenzo's father? | 0:09:29 | 0:09:34 | |
Shall I invite him or do you want to? | 0:09:34 | 0:09:36 | |
But you don't know who he is. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:38 | |
You better do it, then. Change the record, Mum. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:41 | |
But it's important Kenzo has a father figure to help guide him through life. | 0:09:41 | 0:09:45 | |
Yeah, well, I managed without one. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:47 | |
Good one, Janey. Remember that for when Ben gets back. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:50 | |
Mother, the hospital called. Your liver's ready. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:55 | |
Please, Janey, for me? | 0:09:55 | 0:09:57 | |
OK, but here's the deal. | 0:09:57 | 0:09:58 | |
If I invite him, you have to promise not to make a big thing of it and never mention it again. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:03 | |
Of course, darling. Thank you. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:07 | |
You really forgot my third birthday?! | 0:10:07 | 0:10:09 | |
And she left you out when it rained, too. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:12 | |
I've booked a bouncy castle, a fireworks display, chocolate bubble blower, | 0:10:16 | 0:10:21 | |
two face painters, Czechoslovakian puppet show. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:25 | |
Do you think that's enough? | 0:10:25 | 0:10:28 | |
What, no fly-past by the Red Arrows(?) | 0:10:28 | 0:10:32 | |
No Cossack dancers? No skydiving bears? They have skydiving bears? Ooh, yeah... | 0:10:32 | 0:10:38 | |
Susan, why are you making such a big deal about this party? | 0:10:38 | 0:10:41 | |
Third birthdays are very important to children. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:43 | |
I'm determined Janey's third birthday is going to be the best one ever. You mean Kenzo. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:47 | |
I said Kenzo. You didn't. You just said... | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
OK. OK. Fine. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:53 | |
I mean, just keep it under six figures, that's all, because I can't afford all this AND get you... | 0:10:53 | 0:10:59 | |
Get me what? Er, nothing. Nothing. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:03 | |
How much do you like ironing? | 0:11:03 | 0:11:05 | |
It was just a quick question. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:09 | |
Good God! No wonder Charlie Chortle's chortling. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:12 | |
Look how much Charlie Chortle's charging! | 0:11:12 | 0:11:16 | |
Actually, we're not having Charlie Chortle. He's having gall-bladder surgery. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:20 | |
Well, can't the kids watch that? It'll be cheaper and funnier. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:24 | |
Anyway, all of this is immaterial. I've managed to get Shingles. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:27 | |
Oh, God, I'm so sorry. So the party's off, is it? | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
Shingles is a clown. Oh! The most sought-after children's entertainer in the country. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:35 | |
We were lucky there was a last-minute cancellation. Was Psoriasis the Clown booked? | 0:11:35 | 0:11:39 | |
Ben, if you're flinging jellies and custard pies around, you want to be in safe hands. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:44 | |
Good God, who's doing the fireworks? | 0:11:44 | 0:11:46 | |
My mother. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
Well, you know tweed and alcohol are a very combustible mix. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:56 | |
I told you I'd thought of everything. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:59 | |
OK! | 0:11:59 | 0:12:01 | |
Oh, higher, Ben! | 0:12:05 | 0:12:08 | |
The fairy goes on the top! | 0:12:08 | 0:12:09 | |
Yes, I know where to stick the fairy. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:13 | |
I also know where I would LIKE to stick the fairy. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:16 | |
I can't believe this was the best tree they had, Ben. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
It's all dried out and drooping at the bottom. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:21 | |
Are you sure you're looking at the tree? That's it, I'm killing her. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:25 | |
No court will convict me. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
What is that sickly smell? It smells like Elton John's exploded in here. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:33 | |
Good morning, sir, madam. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
Try a free sample? | 0:12:35 | 0:12:38 | |
Caravanserai, an insouciant fragrance | 0:12:39 | 0:12:43 | |
from the blazing sands of the Samarkand, | 0:12:43 | 0:12:45 | |
guaranteed to inflame the passion of your favourite sheikh. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:49 | |
This job is only for two weeks, isn't it, Abi? | 0:12:51 | 0:12:54 | |
With you and my mother here, I'm afraid to light a match. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |
How does my make-up look? They're very strict about presentation. It looks lovely, dear. | 0:12:56 | 0:13:01 | |
That reminds me, I need to confirm the clown. I didn't put mascara on. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:05 | |
The trowel's in the garage. DOORBELL RINGS | 0:13:05 | 0:13:08 | |
Anybody want an aspirin? I do! | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
Why don't you swallow the whole bottle, you bat? | 0:13:11 | 0:13:14 | |
Mrs Harper? Yes? | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
I'm Alfie Butts. That's with two Ts. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:21 | |
The second T is silent. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:24 | |
That's my icebreaker. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:27 | |
Anyway, I'm a friend of Nick's. | 0:13:27 | 0:13:30 | |
Oh! Nick alert! Just because YOU haven't any friends. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:34 | |
Sorry, Alfie, Nick isn't here, I'm afraid. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:37 | |
Yes, I know that. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:39 | |
Didn't he call? No. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:42 | |
OK. Well, erm...I won't take any more of your time, then. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:47 | |
OK! Don't be a stranger. No, wait. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:49 | |
Come in, Alfie, you look frozen. Oh! | 0:13:49 | 0:13:52 | |
No, I'm not cold, I'm just a bit shaken up, really. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:56 | |
I'm not used to London ways, you see, and as I was getting off the coach, | 0:13:56 | 0:14:00 | |
I got rather drawn into a game of three-card brag on the street. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:03 | |
Oh, dear. Did you lose much? No, it's quite simple once you've sussed out the mathematical probabilities. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:09 | |
I won ?1,000. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:10 | |
A thousand quid?! Take a seat, Alfie! | 0:14:10 | 0:14:13 | |
But then they beat me up and took the money back. Been nice knowing you, whatever your name is. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:20 | |
You must be Mr Harper. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:22 | |
Nick's told me all about you. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:25 | |
I thought he was exaggerating. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:27 | |
Sit down. No, Susan... Stay there. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:29 | |
Susan? Susan! We can't just turn him away. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
Think about it - Alfie is like the Christmas traveller looking for shelter. Remember? | 0:14:34 | 0:14:40 | |
Yes. Mary, Joseph and the stable? Oh, yes, of course! | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
Maybe it's hindsight, but then no-one was worried Mary and Joseph were gonna nick their video. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:48 | |
I mean, how do we really know he's a friend of Nick's? | 0:14:48 | 0:14:52 | |
Well, look at him. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:53 | |
I'm looking. It looks like Keith Richards and Worzel Gummidge had a love child. | 0:14:56 | 0:15:01 | |
Alfie, how do you know Nick? | 0:15:01 | 0:15:03 | |
Oh, we met when he was camping out in our field waiting for Glastonbury to start. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:09 | |
Unfortunately, our field is 100 miles from Glastonbury, | 0:15:09 | 0:15:13 | |
and it was winter. He rolled around in the mud, all the same. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:17 | |
He would, yeah. ..Well, he knows Nick. So what does that prove? | 0:15:17 | 0:15:21 | |
Ooh, I almost forgot - there's something Nick wanted me to give you. Hang on. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:26 | |
Oh, wow! Wow! | 0:15:32 | 0:15:35 | |
An original Dinky fire engine! | 0:15:35 | 0:15:39 | |
Oh, that is my favourite! I always wanted one of these when I was a kid. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:42 | |
I'd always save up my pocket money to buy it. That's my favourite, too. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:46 | |
My dad gave me that when I was four. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:48 | |
Ah, what a sweet story. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:50 | |
What about my story, eh? My story was sweet. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:52 | |
Oh, here it is. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:54 | |
Oh, I love Christmas presents. Yes, lovely. And what's Nick sent us? | 0:15:54 | 0:15:58 | |
Yes, his crusty socks. Yes, he does care. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:01 | |
And, er, here's the address to send it back to. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:05 | |
No starch, non-bio. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
Alfie, let me show you to Nick's room. No, Susan! | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
He's staying. He's staying. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:12 | |
Thank you, Mrs Harper. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:15 | |
Sorry, forgive me for being so forward, but where I'm from we're big huggers. What? | 0:16:18 | 0:16:23 | |
Huggers. OK. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:25 | |
That's how we keep warm. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
OK, still got my wallet. Let me show you to your room. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:34 | |
Oh, no need, Mrs Harper. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:35 | |
Nick's described this house to me in so much detail, I know it like the back of my hand. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:40 | |
That's the kitchen. Eh? | 0:16:40 | 0:16:42 | |
Don't worry. Nick used to do that, as well. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:44 | |
Ooh! | 0:16:49 | 0:16:51 | |
Thank you. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:52 | |
Oh! | 0:16:54 | 0:16:56 | |
Ah! Nosferatu! Oh, hello, Grace. | 0:16:57 | 0:17:01 | |
Sorry, Grace, much as it pains me, I need to ask for your help. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:05 | |
You want me to feed the hose through the car window while you start the engine(?) Yes. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:11 | |
Let's save something for the new year, shall we, Grace? | 0:17:11 | 0:17:15 | |
I was hoping you might have a suggestion for Susan's Christmas present. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:18 | |
A divorce? | 0:17:18 | 0:17:20 | |
I wasn't thinking of spending that much. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:24 | |
# Don we now our gay apparel Fa-la-la la-la-la la-la-la | 0:17:25 | 0:17:29 | |
# As we sing this yuletide carol Fa-la-la-la-la la-la... # | 0:17:29 | 0:17:33 | |
Stop! # ..la. # I'm sorry, Ben. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:36 | |
What are you doing here in the dark? | 0:17:36 | 0:17:38 | |
I thought I'd give you one last chance to go carolling. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:41 | |
I'd rather take my eyelids off and face the sun, Roger. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:45 | |
I won't have you being down at Christmas. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
Now, what can I do to make you feel better? How about Russian roulette? You start. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:53 | |
All right, all right, you CAN help. I can? Yes. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:58 | |
I just happened to be rummaging through Susan's cupboard | 0:17:58 | 0:18:02 | |
and accidentally kind of, you know, came across... | 0:18:02 | 0:18:05 | |
what she bought me for Christmas. Ooh...! | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
You're not supposed to do that! | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
Every time someone spoils a Christmas surprise, an elf dies! | 0:18:11 | 0:18:14 | |
Yes, well, every time a wife doesn't get an equally expensive present, a dentist dies. Now, come on, Roger. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:21 | |
Roger, what would she want? | 0:18:21 | 0:18:24 | |
Well, you know, Ben... | 0:18:24 | 0:18:27 | |
women will send out certain signals. Yeah... | 0:18:27 | 0:18:33 | |
I can't afford this, Roger. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:36 | |
Kenzo's party's bleeding me dry. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
And Susan's got Shingles. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:40 | |
Shingles?! Shingles the Clown?! | 0:18:40 | 0:18:43 | |
Only the most sought-after clown in the country! | 0:18:43 | 0:18:46 | |
Isn't it amazing? Only you would know that. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:49 | |
Oh, Ben, money spent on a clown is never wasted. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
It's a vastly underrated art form. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:54 | |
Clowns, elves - where do you live, Roger? In a hollow tree? | 0:18:54 | 0:18:57 | |
Clowning's a bit of a passion of mine. Watch this. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:01 | |
Hup! Ha! | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
Hup! Ha! Hup! | 0:19:07 | 0:19:09 | |
Oh, that's great, Roger. Mrs Green's gonna be sucking her turkey through a straw this year. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:19 | |
I'm sorry, I'm a little clumsy. What? | 0:19:19 | 0:19:22 | |
Yes! | 0:19:22 | 0:19:24 | |
Little Clumsy the Clown! What? | 0:19:24 | 0:19:28 | |
Nothing. | 0:19:28 | 0:19:29 | |
Mrs Green's in luck. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:33 | |
FOOTSTEPS | 0:19:34 | 0:19:38 | |
Ooh! | 0:19:41 | 0:19:43 | |
Oh! | 0:19:47 | 0:19:49 | |
Sorry. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:50 | |
According to Nick's directions, this is the bathroom. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:54 | |
But you're Michael, right? Er, whoa. | 0:19:54 | 0:19:57 | |
Erm... In this family, we don't go in for displays of affection. | 0:19:57 | 0:20:01 | |
Or affection. You must be Alfie. How are you finding us? | 0:20:01 | 0:20:04 | |
Oh, yeah, yeah, your family seems so nice. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:08 | |
Give them time. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
So... | 0:20:10 | 0:20:12 | |
you're a...postman. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:14 | |
Temporarily. The hours are killing me. I have to get up at four in the morning. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:19 | |
As late as that? Back on the farm, we'd just be finishing lunch. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:23 | |
I'm looking for a job myself. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:28 | |
Just until I make a dent in the coal face of the music industry. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:32 | |
I might be able to put something your way. Oh, great! | 0:20:32 | 0:20:35 | |
I just hate being idle. I don't care what it pays. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |
Then I can definitely put something your way. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:41 | |
Try this on. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:42 | |
Oh, really? Could I? | 0:20:42 | 0:20:44 | |
Oh, yeah. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
And let me tell you, the chicks go crazy for the uniform. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:52 | |
Well, the ones that are up. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:53 | |
Oh, no! I've just wrapped Kenzo's birthday present in Christmas paper. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:03 | |
What? This isn't all for Kenzo?! | 0:21:03 | 0:21:06 | |
We have to give our grandson a few little trinkets. | 0:21:06 | 0:21:09 | |
An 800-quid party is a pretty big trinket! | 0:21:09 | 0:21:13 | |
Kids today! | 0:21:13 | 0:21:14 | |
The only entertainment I had at my parties was my Uncle Cecil taking his eye out. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:19 | |
I'd blow out the candle, the other kid'd go home... | 0:21:19 | 0:21:22 | |
You know what I really wish I had? No, what? What, what, what, what? | 0:21:22 | 0:21:26 | |
A video camera. A video camera? | 0:21:26 | 0:21:29 | |
I suggested using one of those at our anniversary, but you were afraid the kids might find the tape. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:34 | |
I meant for Kenzo's party. Yeah. | 0:21:34 | 0:21:36 | |
Anyway, it wasn't the videoing that put me off that idea. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:40 | |
It was the leather shorts and the sour cream. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:43 | |
It was creme fraiche. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:47 | |
It's down the hall. Second left. Thank you. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:54 | |
OK! OK, video camera it is. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:59 | |
Signal sent, signal received. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:01 | |
Oh! And I've got Janey to invite Kenzo's father. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:05 | |
What? Is that a good idea? I mean, how much is he going to eat? | 0:22:05 | 0:22:09 | |
Ben, I want Kenzo to have a really good male role model before he gets to know you too well. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:14 | |
DOORBELL RINGS | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
Who can that be at this time of night? It'll be carol singers. Scum! | 0:22:16 | 0:22:21 | |
Scrooge! | 0:22:21 | 0:22:23 | |
Hello, Ben! | 0:22:34 | 0:22:36 | |
It's me - Roger! | 0:22:36 | 0:22:38 | |
ROGER HUMS CIRCUS MUSIC | 0:22:38 | 0:22:40 | |
What? What? Shut up! Shut up! | 0:22:40 | 0:22:44 | |
Roger, please! Please, Roger! | 0:22:44 | 0:22:45 | |
HORN HONKS | 0:22:45 | 0:22:48 | |
(Shut up!) | 0:22:48 | 0:22:50 | |
HONK! Shut...! | 0:22:50 | 0:22:52 | |
Susan's upstairs. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
Sorry, Ben. I just put the costume on and I got carried away. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
What do you think of the name Dento? | 0:22:57 | 0:23:00 | |
Dento the Clown. Like "dentist", see? | 0:23:00 | 0:23:02 | |
I don't want Dento. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:04 | |
I don't need Dento. | 0:23:04 | 0:23:05 | |
I hired you to be Shingles. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:07 | |
Don't you think Susan'll take one look at me realise I'm not Shingles? No, because all clowns look alike! | 0:23:07 | 0:23:14 | |
Ben, that is racist. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
It's not! OK, then, it's clownist. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:19 | |
Get out, Roger! Smell my flower, Ben. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:22 | |
Who is it, Ben? It's all right, darling. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:24 | |
It's OK, it's just carol singers. I'm putting the hose on them. | 0:23:24 | 0:23:28 | |
Just get out! | 0:23:28 | 0:23:30 | |
BUZZING | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
Stop it, stop it! Just get...! | 0:23:33 | 0:23:36 | |
Get out, get out! | 0:23:36 | 0:23:39 | |
How do they drive in those shoes? | 0:23:39 | 0:23:42 | |
HONK! | 0:23:42 | 0:23:44 | |
Makeover, madam? | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
Perk up your face for Christmas - | 0:23:46 | 0:23:49 | |
you look rough. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:51 | |
Make you look 40 again. | 0:23:51 | 0:23:53 | |
I'm 37. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:55 | |
Come on, it's just us girls. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:57 | |
Excuse me, sir, how about some Bronzo in-hair highlights? | 0:23:59 | 0:24:03 | |
Lose that just-left-prison look. | 0:24:03 | 0:24:05 | |
Well, I didn't know! It's just an expression. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:09 | |
Repulsion, the new fragrance from the Roman Polanski collection. | 0:24:14 | 0:24:18 | |
Eyes! Eyes, eyes, eyes! | 0:24:18 | 0:24:20 | |
I mean, sir, can I interest you in a five-minute facial? You'll be out of here in 20 minutes. | 0:24:20 | 0:24:26 | |
No, no, no, you can interest me in your staff discount card, Abi. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:30 | |
I've got to buy Susan a video camera. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:32 | |
And would Susan be your wife or partner, sir? | 0:24:32 | 0:24:36 | |
Wife, partner, nemesis - let's not quibble. OK, give me the card. | 0:24:36 | 0:24:39 | |
Only if you help me out first. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:42 | |
Come on, Ben, I'm supposed to do three makeovers an hour. | 0:24:42 | 0:24:45 | |
I haven't done one since that tall Taiwanese woman with the big Adam's apple. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:48 | |
Are you seriously insane? I haven't got time, Abi! Give me the card! All right. All right, too bad. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:54 | |
That was a 20% discount card. Oh, yeah. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:57 | |
OK, OK, OK, damn you beauticians. | 0:24:57 | 0:25:00 | |
# Blues | 0:25:03 | 0:25:08 | |

Alfie, that's got Christmas number one written all over it. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:36 | |
Oh, no, I'm not into chart success per se. I've gotta stay focused. | 0:25:36 | 0:25:43 | |
That's where a lot of artists go wrong, you see. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:45 | |
Oh, can I lick the spoon? | 0:25:45 | 0:25:47 | |
Nick used to lick the spoon. | 0:25:49 | 0:25:51 | |
And he will again, Mrs Harper. | 0:25:51 | 0:25:54 | |
Sweet of you to say so. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:56 | |
There! Finished! | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
I'd like to see Nigella make a cake without butter, eggs or sugar. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:04 | |
Who's Ken 20? | 0:26:04 | 0:26:07 | |
That's... It's... That's Kenzo. | 0:26:07 | 0:26:10 | |
It's Kenzo. It's Janey's little boy. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:12 | |
Oh, yeah. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:13 | |
Do you want to lick the bowl as well? | 0:26:15 | 0:26:17 | |
Well, I've only been here a day. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:19 | |
I don't want to appear overfamiliar. | 0:26:19 | 0:26:21 | |
Hey, Mum, how's it going? | 0:26:24 | 0:26:27 | |
Can I help? | 0:26:27 | 0:26:29 | |
Who's Ken 20? | 0:26:29 | 0:26:31 | |
It's Kenzo. Kenzo. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:33 | |
Your little boy. Ah. | 0:26:33 | 0:26:36 | |
Is that My Little Pony? Yes. Brings back memories, doesn't it? | 0:26:36 | 0:26:40 | |
Well, not for Kenzo it doesn't. I mean, he doesn't know who My Little Pony is. And it's for girls, Mum. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:46 | |
I thought you might like it. | 0:26:46 | 0:26:48 | |
I liked it when I was three. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:50 | |
Mum, look, I really don't mind that you missed my third birthday. | 0:26:50 | 0:26:53 | |
But if you feel really guilty about it, you could give me, oh, I don't know, ?100? | 0:26:53 | 0:26:58 | |
I don't feel guilty. | 0:26:58 | 0:27:01 | |
Oh, look, just turn the pony into a dragon or something violent, anyway. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:05 | |
It IS my son we're talking about. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:07 | |
When will that girl let it go? | 0:27:07 | 0:27:10 | |
You really did make this without sugar. Amazing. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:14 | |
"Have a facial peel," she said. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:17 | |
"It'll take five minutes," she said. | 0:27:21 | 0:27:24 | |
Look at me - I look like the last Scotsman out of the pub on Burns' Night. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:30 | |
I like it, Ben. It gives the room a warm, Christmassy glow. | 0:27:30 | 0:27:36 | |
No more comments from you, OK? | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
No more. If I didn't love you so much... | 0:27:38 | 0:27:42 | |
I wouldn't look like this. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:45 | |
Now excuse me. | 0:27:45 | 0:27:47 | |
Oh, God, that's better. | 0:27:47 | 0:27:49 | |
There's no booze in there. I've already looked. | 0:27:52 | 0:27:55 | |
Susan, darling, I've been thinking. | 0:27:56 | 0:28:01 | |
Because of Kenzo's birthday party, I'm going to give you your Christmas present early. Oh! Thank you, Mum. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:07 | |
It's a video camera. Oh, no! | 0:28:07 | 0:28:10 | |
"SILENT NIGHT" ON GUITAR | 0:28:12 | 0:28:17 | |
I can't believe this Christmas. | 0:28:23 | 0:28:26 | |
I've got the mother-in-law - the creature that time forgot - in the bedroom upstairs... | 0:28:26 | 0:28:31 | |
..I've got a face like a Swan Vesta... | 0:28:32 | 0:28:35 | |
I'm hosting a kid's party that cost more than the gross national product of Chad... | 0:28:35 | 0:28:41 | |
I've got two non-returnable Christmas presents, one of which is an ironing-board cover. | 0:28:41 | 0:28:47 | |
That's ?3 I'm never gonna see again. | 0:28:47 | 0:28:49 | |
And on top of all that, I still don't know what to get Susan for Christmas. | 0:28:51 | 0:28:56 | |
Shut up. | 0:28:58 | 0:29:00 | |
Well, if I know Mrs Harper as well as I think I do... | 0:29:02 | 0:29:06 | |
Alfie, please, you've been here one day! | 0:29:06 | 0:29:09 | |
Fair enough. What do you think she'd like? | 0:29:10 | 0:29:13 | |
Well, she's passionate about music, literature and art, particularly the pre-Raphaelites, | 0:29:13 | 0:29:19 | |
which she studied during her first year at Newcastle University. | 0:29:19 | 0:29:24 | |
Susan went to university? | 0:29:24 | 0:29:26 | |
Oh, yeah. Yeah, she... Sorry. | 0:29:26 | 0:29:29 | |
But her current passion is the Bloomsbury Set. | 0:29:29 | 0:29:33 | |
I can't afford the whole set. | 0:29:33 | 0:29:35 | |
Can I just get the knickers? | 0:29:35 | 0:29:37 | |
No, no, no - the Bloomsbury Set is... | 0:29:37 | 0:29:41 | |
Never mind. | 0:29:41 | 0:29:43 | |
Just get her a book, a first edition. | 0:29:43 | 0:29:46 | |
Perhaps Mrs Dalloway. Yeah. | 0:29:46 | 0:29:49 | |
Yeah, Mrs Dalloway. She'd like that. She'd love that. It's by Virginia Woolf. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:53 | |
Yeah, I knew that. | 0:29:55 | 0:29:56 | |
I'll write it down for you. Yeah, OK. Print it. Print it. | 0:29:58 | 0:30:03 | |
Can you give me some help with this? | 0:30:03 | 0:30:05 | |
(HIGH VOICE:) People of Earth, you have no reason to fear us. | 0:30:05 | 0:30:09 | |
The helium's for the balloons. | 0:30:09 | 0:30:10 | |
While you toy with your primitive decorations, our spaceships are massing. | 0:30:10 | 0:30:15 | |
Hello, Mum. Where is Singles? He was supposed to be here an hour ago to set up. | 0:30:15 | 0:30:19 | |
You know what tiny little clown cars are like. | 0:30:19 | 0:30:21 | |
He's probably had to stop every five minutes to pick up his doors. I love you, but I don't like you. | 0:30:21 | 0:30:26 | |
Mum, just calm down. | 0:30:26 | 0:30:28 | |
Oh, you're right. You're right. | 0:30:28 | 0:30:30 | |
Deep breaths. Deep breaths. | 0:30:30 | 0:30:33 | |
Jellies! Jellies! Jellies! Jellies! | 0:30:35 | 0:30:38 | |
DOORBELL RINGS | 0:30:38 | 0:30:40 | |
Hello. Hi, Alfie. | 0:30:41 | 0:30:44 | |
How's my job going? Ooh, we got paid today. | 0:30:44 | 0:30:47 | |
Erm, here's your pay slip. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:50 | |
Cheers, Alfie. As soon as this clears, I'll give you your third. | 0:30:52 | 0:30:55 | |
Oh, no, no, no, no, no - it's your job, it's your money. | 0:30:55 | 0:30:58 | |
Anyway, I'm just happy to keep busy. Well, if you're sure. Oh, aye. | 0:30:58 | 0:31:02 | |
Besides, I earned nearly three times that in Christmas tips this week. And it's tax-free. | 0:31:02 | 0:31:07 | |
Alfie! | 0:31:09 | 0:31:11 | |
Alfie! | 0:31:13 | 0:31:15 | |
Here! | 0:31:15 | 0:31:16 | |
I've got it. | 0:31:19 | 0:31:20 | |
(HIGH VOICE:) Oh, I'm so pleased. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:24 | |
Got what? Mrs Dalloway. | 0:31:25 | 0:31:27 | |
First edition. ?1,200. | 0:31:27 | 0:31:29 | |
1,200 quid! | 0:31:29 | 0:31:31 | |
Are you sure Susan's gonna realise how much it cost? | 0:31:31 | 0:31:35 | |
Oh, I'm sure Mrs Harper is astute enough to recognise the value of a first edition. | 0:31:35 | 0:31:41 | |
I'll leave the receipt in just to hammer it home, yeah? | 0:31:41 | 0:31:44 | |
Gracie! | 0:31:54 | 0:31:56 | |
I'm coming to get you! | 0:31:56 | 0:31:58 | |
That's your mother's toy boy?! | 0:32:00 | 0:32:02 | |
He's three months younger than her. | 0:32:02 | 0:32:04 | |
In their crowd, that makes her Demi Moore. | 0:32:04 | 0:32:06 | |
Isn't it wonderful, Ben? The kids are having so much fun. | 0:32:08 | 0:32:11 | |
You'd have fun if you were a kid destroying a house a man had worked his entire life for. | 0:32:11 | 0:32:16 | |
DOORBELL RINGS At last. Shingles! Don't expect too much from Shingles. | 0:32:16 | 0:32:19 | |
I'd hate to see you disappointed. Why would I be disappointed? No reason. It's fine. | 0:32:19 | 0:32:23 | |
Here, shoot the kids. Yeah, with pleasure. | 0:32:23 | 0:32:27 | |
DOORBELL RINGS You wanna be shot? | 0:32:27 | 0:32:29 | |
You're not a clown. No, I'm a doctor. Well, what use is that? | 0:32:31 | 0:32:35 | |
Andrew Barker? Janey invited me. Oh! | 0:32:35 | 0:32:38 | |
Oh, yes, yes, of course, come in. | 0:32:38 | 0:32:42 | |
You must be Kenzo's... | 0:32:42 | 0:32:44 | |
mother's... | 0:32:44 | 0:32:45 | |
friend person. | 0:32:45 | 0:32:48 | |
Oh, and a doctor! | 0:32:48 | 0:32:50 | |
Janey? Your friend from three years and nine months ago is here. | 0:32:52 | 0:32:58 | |
She loves it when I'm specific. | 0:32:58 | 0:33:00 | |
And he's a doctor! Thank you! | 0:33:00 | 0:33:02 | |
Ben? Ben, this is Andrew. | 0:33:04 | 0:33:08 | |
(He's Kenzo's father.) Oh, finally the toe-rag has the decency... | 0:33:08 | 0:33:12 | |
Oh, how are you? Very nice to meet you. He's a doctor. Oh, really? | 0:33:12 | 0:33:16 | |
Couldn't hack it in dental school, then? Actually, I'm a neurosurgeon. It's very challenging work. | 0:33:16 | 0:33:21 | |
Yeah, I'm sure, yeah, yeah. | 0:33:21 | 0:33:23 | |
Well, brains don't bite you when you're trying to put in a bridge. | 0:33:23 | 0:33:27 | |
You made it! Great! | 0:33:27 | 0:33:30 | |
Ben, Ben, you're wanted in the kitchen! | 0:33:30 | 0:33:33 | |
Oh! Ow, ow! | 0:33:33 | 0:33:35 | |
The clown's hysterical. I'm coming! | 0:33:35 | 0:33:37 | |
And not in a good way! | 0:33:37 | 0:33:40 | |
It's wonderful to meet you at last. | 0:33:40 | 0:33:42 | |
Janey's told me absolutely nothing about you. DOORBELL RINGS | 0:33:42 | 0:33:46 | |
Please let this be Shingles. | 0:33:46 | 0:33:49 | |
Oh, hello! | 0:33:49 | 0:33:50 | |
I'm a big boy now. So I see. | 0:33:50 | 0:33:53 | |
I can do a poo by myself. | 0:33:53 | 0:33:56 | |
Good for you! | 0:33:56 | 0:33:58 | |
I've done one over there. | 0:33:58 | 0:34:00 | |
Perfect! | 0:34:03 | 0:34:05 | |
Ben! | 0:34:05 | 0:34:06 | |
Josh? Oh, you made it! Come in! | 0:34:10 | 0:34:12 | |
Mark! Come on in! | 0:34:18 | 0:34:21 | |
And who are they? Oh, just...some more fathers. | 0:34:27 | 0:34:31 | |
That was some night you had. | 0:34:31 | 0:34:34 | |
Come on, Roger! Roger! | 0:34:34 | 0:34:36 | |
I'm sorry, I can't do it! I thought I could, but I can't! What the hell are you talking about? | 0:34:36 | 0:34:41 | |
I've got stage fright, Ben! It's a room full of kids! They won't even remember you tomorrow! | 0:34:41 | 0:34:46 | |
That makes it worse, somehow! | 0:34:46 | 0:34:48 | |
Oh, clowns! How can something that brings so much joy bring so much fear? | 0:34:48 | 0:34:53 | |
Listen! | 0:34:53 | 0:34:55 | |
You wanna see fear? You wanna see real fear? Just watch my face when Susan comes through that door. | 0:34:55 | 0:34:59 | |
Come on, Roger! You're funny. | 0:35:01 | 0:35:04 | |
You're really funny! Am I, Abi? Am I really? | 0:35:04 | 0:35:08 | |
Well... | 0:35:08 | 0:35:09 | |
not so much when you're being a clown, but when you're eating and things like that. | 0:35:09 | 0:35:14 | |
Yeah, Roger, you're hysterical when you're eating. Now come on! Go out there a second-rate dentist | 0:35:14 | 0:35:19 | |
but come back a first-rate clown. Please, Roger, please! Go on! | 0:35:19 | 0:35:23 | |
NO! | 0:35:23 | 0:35:24 | |
For God's sake, Roger, pull yourself together! | 0:35:24 | 0:35:28 | |
Not the nose! | 0:35:28 | 0:35:29 | |
Are they still playing hide-and-seek? | 0:35:34 | 0:35:37 | |
I've lost all feeling in my feet. Here, Alfie, take your guitar. Get out there, entertain the kids. | 0:35:43 | 0:35:49 | |
Sing one of your stupid songs. | 0:35:49 | 0:35:51 | |
AUDIENCE: Aw...! | 0:35:51 | 0:35:53 | |
I WILL play, Mr Harper, because I want the stage time, but adjectives like "stupid" motivate no-one. | 0:35:55 | 0:36:02 | |
OK. OK. | 0:36:05 | 0:36:08 | |
Dutch courage - that's what we need. | 0:36:08 | 0:36:11 | |
Are you sure that's a good idea? Yep, it's a very good idea. | 0:36:11 | 0:36:14 | |
DOOR SHUTS | 0:36:18 | 0:36:19 | |
I thought I heard the sound of a bottle opening! | 0:36:19 | 0:36:22 | |
HE SINGS IN WELSH | 0:36:24 | 0:36:27 | |
All together now. | 0:36:43 | 0:36:45 | |
HE SINGS SONG AGAIN IN WELSH | 0:36:45 | 0:36:51 | |
Michael, look, it's the Three Wise Men. | 0:37:00 | 0:37:04 | |
They can't be that wise - one of them slept with Janey. | 0:37:04 | 0:37:07 | |
Probably all three slept with Janey. | 0:37:07 | 0:37:09 | |
I just wish I knew which one was Kenzo's father. | 0:37:09 | 0:37:12 | |
There's a simple way to find out. | 0:37:12 | 0:37:15 | |
How? How? | 0:37:15 | 0:37:17 | |
DNA testing. It's infallible. They even have home DNA testing kits now. I have one in my room. | 0:37:17 | 0:37:22 | |
What do you have one for? | 0:37:22 | 0:37:24 | |
I regularly check whether I'm your natural-born son. | 0:37:24 | 0:37:27 | |
It's coming out positive, but I live in hope. | 0:37:27 | 0:37:29 | |
So do we. | 0:37:29 | 0:37:31 | |
Now, all I'll need is a sample of hair or saliva from each of the potential victims. | 0:37:31 | 0:37:36 | |
Plus ?100. What's that for? | 0:37:36 | 0:37:38 | |
I have to touch hair and saliva. | 0:37:38 | 0:37:41 | |

It's Kenzo! Ah. | 0:38:18 | 0:38:21 | |
Ah-ha! Ah-ha! | 0:38:22 | 0:38:23 | |
Ta-da! | 0:38:23 | 0:38:25 | |
What do you mean, "Ta-da"? BOTH: Ta-da! | 0:38:28 | 0:38:31 | |
It's Shingles! Shingles! | 0:38:31 | 0:38:33 | |
Yes! | 0:38:33 | 0:38:34 | |
I love you! Yeah, OK... | 0:38:36 | 0:38:39 | |
I just didn't know how much clowns drank, Susan. | 0:38:39 | 0:38:42 | |
It's all that crying on the inside. | 0:38:42 | 0:38:45 | |
Why is Roger dressed like that? | 0:38:45 | 0:38:47 | |
Well, you're gonna laugh at this. | 0:38:47 | 0:38:49 | |
Or, in fact, smile wryly. | 0:38:51 | 0:38:53 | |
What have you done? You see, Shingles cancelled. | 0:38:53 | 0:38:57 | |
Yes, idiot. He cancelled at the last minute and... | 0:38:57 | 0:39:01 | |
apparently he had to rush off to entertain... | 0:39:01 | 0:39:03 | |
The astronauts! ..astronauts... | 0:39:03 | 0:39:06 | |
Shhh! | 0:39:08 | 0:39:09 | |
You cancelled him, Ben, didn't you? | 0:39:09 | 0:39:12 | |
Because you're a mean, mean man. She's got her nasty face on. Shut up. | 0:39:12 | 0:39:17 | |
And I was gonna be his assistant. Oh, it's a nice costume, Abi. | 0:39:17 | 0:39:21 | |
It's my swimsuit. | 0:39:21 | 0:39:23 | |
Yeah, look at this. Isn't it gorgeous, Susan? | 0:39:23 | 0:39:26 | |
Stunning, isn't it, in cerise? And she's sewn the sequins and the feathers on just for Kenzo. | 0:39:26 | 0:39:31 | |
Nah, it's always been like this. | 0:39:31 | 0:39:33 | |
Mind you, I did spend a lot of time at the bottom of the pool. | 0:39:33 | 0:39:37 | |
Listen, Ben. Yep, OK. I promised these children Shingles, and Shingles they're damn well getting. | 0:39:38 | 0:39:43 | |
You have two minutes to produce a clown | 0:39:43 | 0:39:45 | |
or I'll use part of your anatomy to make balloon animals. | 0:39:45 | 0:39:48 | |
OK. Look, come on, Roger. Come on! | 0:39:48 | 0:39:50 | |
Come on, Roger, Roger, Roger. | 0:39:50 | 0:39:52 | |

Ben! I mean Shingles! Yes, all right, I was gonna clean it up! | 0:41:47 | 0:41:50 | |
I know, Shingles, how about your classic paper-cutting routine? What? | 0:41:50 | 0:41:55 | |
Oh, yes, my classic paper-cutting routine... | 0:41:55 | 0:42:00 | |
Yes. Thank you, Mrs Susan. | 0:42:00 | 0:42:03 | |
Can I have the birthday boy up here, please? Yeah, here he comes. | 0:42:03 | 0:42:06 | |
Big round for Kenzo! | 0:42:06 | 0:42:08 | |
Dad, this is the most embarrassing thing you've ever done. | 0:42:10 | 0:42:14 | |
SQUIRTING | 0:42:14 | 0:42:18 | |
Right, Kenzo! Kenzo, do you like lions? | 0:42:18 | 0:42:21 | |
He likes lions! Do you all like lions? Yeah! | 0:42:21 | 0:42:24 | |
Big lions like you've seen at the zoo? | 0:42:24 | 0:42:28 | |
Well, I'm gonna make a big lion out of paper, a lion sitting | 0:42:28 | 0:42:32 | |
astride a carriage with two magical footmen sitting alongside of him. | 0:42:32 | 0:42:37 | |
This is your lucky day, cos it's your birthday! | 0:42:37 | 0:42:40 | |
Cos what I've got here... I've got a moth. You see? The lion turned into a moth! | 0:42:40 | 0:42:47 | |
Yeah! | 0:42:47 | 0:42:49 | |
Stop clowning around and get serious. I'm doing the best I can. | 0:42:51 | 0:42:55 | |
All right, OK, who wants to meet my friend Wally? Me! | 0:42:55 | 0:42:59 | |
You do? Right, he's in my trousers. He's very shy. For God's sake! | 0:42:59 | 0:43:04 | |
It's all right, don't worry. Kids love this! ..After three, you've got to say, "Come out, Wally." | 0:43:04 | 0:43:08 | |
One, two, three... | 0:43:08 | 0:43:10 | |
Come out, Wally! | 0:43:10 | 0:43:12 | |
Hello, children! | 0:43:12 | 0:43:15 | |
BOO! | 0:43:15 | 0:43:17 | |
It's only his wallet! | 0:43:17 | 0:43:18 | |
Well, enjoy it, kids. | 0:43:18 | 0:43:20 | |
He doesn't get that out every day. | 0:43:20 | 0:43:22 | |
I love you, Shingles! I love you! | 0:43:22 | 0:43:26 | |
You're the funniest clown a kid ever saw! | 0:43:26 | 0:43:29 | |
Oh, God, two years in dental school for this. I can't cope. I'm going. | 0:43:29 | 0:43:32 | |
What are you doing? You can't stop now! What? | 0:43:32 | 0:43:35 | |
Oh, look, here's Percy! | 0:43:36 | 0:43:40 | |
I'm feeling a bit empty inside! | 0:43:40 | 0:43:43 | |
Well, whose fault is that, Miss Money-Spendy? Oh, you wallets! | 0:43:43 | 0:43:48 | |
You think you know everything! You idiot! | 0:43:48 | 0:43:51 | |
Who are you calling an idiot? Eh? Eh? | 0:43:51 | 0:43:54 | |
You're not even real leather, are you? | 0:43:54 | 0:43:57 | |
That's because it was a gift from you. Oh, yeah? | 0:43:57 | 0:44:00 | |
They're loving this. Keep hitting me, Susan. Hit me! Hit me! | 0:44:02 | 0:44:07 | |
I'll hit you! | 0:44:07 | 0:44:09 | |
Hello, boys and girls! | 0:44:11 | 0:44:12 | |
It's your friend Shingles! | 0:44:12 | 0:44:14 | |
Roger... Would you like to see my elephant impression? | 0:44:14 | 0:44:18 | |
There's one ear, there's the other ear... | 0:44:18 | 0:44:22 | |
Ladies and gentlemen, the test results are in. | 0:44:28 | 0:44:31 | |
Oh, God, don't tell me Janey's pregnant again. | 0:44:31 | 0:44:34 | |
No, no, no, | 0:44:34 | 0:44:35 | |
it's the DNA results. | 0:44:35 | 0:44:37 | |
Michael tested Kenzo's three potential fathers from the party. I beg your pardon?! | 0:44:37 | 0:44:42 | |
It's good to win once in a while. I've beaten you, Janey. | 0:44:42 | 0:44:45 | |
I've beaten you like a fluffy omelette. Susan Harper! In all my years, | 0:44:45 | 0:44:50 | |
I have never known anything so devious, so despicable... | 0:44:50 | 0:44:54 | |
I just love the new you. | 0:44:54 | 0:44:57 | |
In the category of Best Father... | 0:44:57 | 0:44:59 | |
Excuse me - Best Father in a Non-supporting Role. | 0:44:59 | 0:45:01 | |
Look, I'm sorry to unravel your sneaky little plot, | 0:45:01 | 0:45:05 | |
but none of the guys at yesterday's party was Kenzo's father. In fact, I've never slept with any of them. | 0:45:05 | 0:45:09 | |
And, as unlikely as that sounds... | 0:45:09 | 0:45:12 | |
my results do support that conclusion. | 0:45:12 | 0:45:14 | |
I will, however, be keeping the money. | 0:45:14 | 0:45:17 | |
Janey, you promised to bring Kenzo's father to the party. We had a deal. | 0:45:17 | 0:45:21 | |
But if I told you who he really was, you'd never rest until you involved him in our family. | 0:45:21 | 0:45:25 | |
I don't want that, and, Lord knows, he wouldn't want that. What sane man would? | 0:45:25 | 0:45:29 | |
What makes you think we'd interfere? You just got Michael to... Do a DNA test! | 0:45:29 | 0:45:35 | |
Oh, that's just what mothers do. | 0:45:35 | 0:45:39 | |
If the technology's there, why not use it? | 0:45:39 | 0:45:41 | |
Well... | 0:45:44 | 0:45:46 | |
I think I'd better be off. | 0:45:46 | 0:45:49 | |
Alfie, where are you going? | 0:45:49 | 0:45:50 | |
Well, ever since I arrived, this family's been in disarray. | 0:45:50 | 0:45:54 | |
Actually, it's one of their more successful Christmases. | 0:45:54 | 0:45:58 | |
Yes, well, I'm not one for sentimental goodbyes, so, erm... goodbye, Alfie. | 0:45:58 | 0:46:03 | |
Actually, Mr Harper, erm... | 0:46:03 | 0:46:06 | |
this is for you. | 0:46:06 | 0:46:09 | |
You've been so kind to me... underneath the overt hostility. | 0:46:09 | 0:46:15 | |
Well, I don't know what to say, Alfie. I, er... | 0:46:15 | 0:46:18 | |
Wow! | 0:46:18 | 0:46:19 | |
Oh, a Dinky...! | 0:46:19 | 0:46:21 | |
I haven't got you anything. | 0:46:21 | 0:46:23 | |
I have. Alfie, it's Christmas Day. You're going nowhere. | 0:46:23 | 0:46:26 | |
Yeah, I know, I've heard his music. | 0:46:26 | 0:46:29 | |
Gracie! What a beautiful ring! What? Thank you! | 0:46:29 | 0:46:34 | |
Read the inscription. Oh, right. | 0:46:34 | 0:46:37 | |
"To the..." "..man who rocks my world." | 0:46:37 | 0:46:40 | |
That's... I thought I rocked your world. Not your world, YOUR world. | 0:46:40 | 0:46:44 | |
You do, Ben. Now let's open our presents. Not now. I'd rather you didn't, because I think it's wrong. | 0:46:44 | 0:46:50 | |
It's all wrong. I don't like it, you won't like it. I'm gonna exchange it. | 0:46:50 | 0:46:53 | |
For God's sake! No, don't open it! | 0:46:53 | 0:46:55 | |
Tea towels. ?5 on tea towels. | 0:46:55 | 0:47:00 | |
Oh, Ben! | 0:47:01 | 0:47:04 | |
Mrs Dalloway! Yeah. | 0:47:04 | 0:47:06 | |
Oh, and it's a first edition! | 0:47:06 | 0:47:09 | |
It must have cost you a fortune if this receipt is anything to go by! | 0:47:09 | 0:47:14 | |
Thank you, darling! | 0:47:14 | 0:47:16 | |
Now, you read it slowly, OK? | 0:47:16 | 0:47:19 | |
That's ?20 a page. | 0:47:19 | 0:47:22 | |
I'm almost embarrassed about what I bought you. Socks? You're right. Embarrassed? No! | 0:47:22 | 0:47:26 | |
OK. Let's eat! | 0:47:26 | 0:47:28 | |
Yes, let's! | 0:47:28 | 0:47:31 | |
No, wait, we haven't given Alfie his present. | 0:47:31 | 0:47:35 | |
I got Abi to get it, because I was so busy with the party. | 0:47:35 | 0:47:37 | |
I'll go and get it! | 0:47:37 | 0:47:39 | |
Alfie, in the few days that you've been with us, you've really become part of the family. | 0:47:39 | 0:47:44 | |
And this is our way of saying welcome. | 0:47:44 | 0:47:47 | |
He's now in our family? What did you get him? Not expensive, is it? | 0:47:47 | 0:47:50 | |
Abi, I said, "Get him a door key"! | 0:47:55 | 0:47:58 | |
Oh! | 0:47:58 | 0:48:00 | |
Well, a donkey's still nice, isn't it? It's lovely. | 0:48:00 | 0:48:04 | |
And it's very Christmassy. | 0:48:04 | 0:48:06 | |
Oh, look, it's snowing. | 0:48:06 | 0:48:08 | |
Oh, great, that's all I need(!) | 0:48:08 | 0:48:12 | |
Well, why not? | 0:48:14 | 0:48:16 | |
We've had the Christmas donkey, the Three Wise Men... | 0:48:16 | 0:48:21 | |
the Christmas visitor. | 0:48:21 | 0:48:23 | |
Yeah, why not a bit of snow? | 0:48:25 | 0:48:27 | |
How alarmingly traditional. | 0:48:27 | 0:48:30 | |
Come on, Ben, say it. | 0:48:30 | 0:48:32 | |
Say what? | 0:48:32 | 0:48:34 | |
Merry... | 0:48:34 | 0:48:36 | |
OK, all together... | 0:48:36 | 0:48:38 | |
Merry Christmas... Oh, great(!) | 0:48:38 | 0:48:41 | |
DONKEY BRAYS | 0:48:41 | 0:48:43 |
