0:03:47 > 0:03:50I've been there my whole life.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53Born in it. Well, not in it, but...

0:03:53 > 0:03:55..been there since I was a baby.

0:03:55 > 0:03:59- It's traumatic. - Are you being sarcastic?

0:03:59 > 0:04:01No, I'm not, no. It is.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04I mean, it's like you said, you've lived there all your life.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07Everything you've ever known is in that house, your family,

0:04:31 > 0:04:35Hey, you'll never guess what else I found down the back of the Welsh dresser?

0:04:35 > 0:04:37Shergar's saddle.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Bobby Ball's braces.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42What, his actual braces that he wore? How'd you get them?

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Happen they're worth a bob or two.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47No, not his real ones. You could buy these ones after their show.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50I remember crying me eyes out till my dad bought me a pair,

0:04:50 > 0:04:55then I wore them all the time. I was OBSESSED with him. Rock on, Tommy!

0:04:55 > 0:04:56Did you have a 'tache an' all?

0:04:56 > 0:04:59No, but I did have a very aggressive perm.

0:04:59 > 0:05:03I used to love Cannon and Ball, I did. They were massive. Hysterical.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05I saw them three times in Blackpool.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07I never bought any braces, though.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10So did we! At the North Pier?

0:05:10 > 0:05:14Yeah, that's where we saw them, North Pier. Lenny Henry were on with them.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17Was he? I don't remember him being there.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20How mad we were both in the same place at the same time

0:05:20 > 0:05:21and we didn't even know.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Well, how would we? We didn't know each other.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26That's fate, Jonathan. I'm telling you.

0:05:26 > 0:05:28Coincidence at bloody best.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31Well, I don't even know anyone else who went.

0:05:31 > 0:05:35# Laugh me a laugh, grin me a grin

0:05:35 > 0:05:38# And then we'll know that we can win... #

0:05:38 > 0:05:39Call yourself a fan?

0:05:42 > 0:05:45Do you not think we're a bit like Cannon and Ball, me and you?

0:05:45 > 0:05:48I'm the little bubbly funny one and you're the other...

0:05:48 > 0:05:51Tommy Cannon? Cheeky bitch.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Rock on, Johnny!

0:05:53 > 0:05:54Shocking.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00I know we're a bit late, but can we stop for something to eat?

0:06:00 > 0:06:02I haven't had me brekkie yet.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04We'll be cutting it fine.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07Oh, come on, it's our last day together.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10I'll treat you.

0:06:10 > 0:06:15Go on, you can blame me.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17At least I'll be early again next week.

0:06:31 > 0:06:32You'll not go hungry in here.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35I hope not. I've been saving me sins.

0:06:39 > 0:06:43They're taking their time, aren't they? I'm starving.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45So how do you know about this place?

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Erm...I come in now and again.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50A bit more civilised than McDonalds.

0:06:50 > 0:06:56Come on... Two Fat Boys - fill your boots.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58- I'll never eat all that. - You get a balloon if you do.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01- I'll look like one an' all.- If you scrape through those beans,

0:07:01 > 0:07:04- there's a phone number for the British Heart Foundation.- Really?

0:07:04 > 0:07:07- I'm joking.- To be fair, you'd need one.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09How many calories are in this? Off the scale.

0:07:09 > 0:07:13Come on, a special occasion. It's Friday. It's our last supper, this.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15I'll still be eating this for supper.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18They've been a bit skinny, actually. You should get two fried bread.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20It's gone downhill a bit, truth be told.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22I'll never get through all of this. It's too much for me, this.

0:07:22 > 0:07:23You can't whack a Fat Boy.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28Can I have two more white toast, please?

0:07:33 > 0:07:36That's me done. I'm out!

0:07:37 > 0:07:40Do you mind? It's the best bit, the rind.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42Be my guest. I'm full now.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44I'll have to undo my pants.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46Thank God for leggings.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48I hear you. Trackie bottoms.

0:07:48 > 0:07:51Mind you, I can't imagine working in a pair of those bastards.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53Excuse my French.

0:07:53 > 0:07:57Elasticated waists, that's the future.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01- Trackie bottoms are elasticated. - I mean elasticated trousers. Marks's sell them.

0:08:01 > 0:08:03Lethal, slippery slope.

0:08:03 > 0:08:04You sound like me grandad.

0:08:04 > 0:08:08Do I? He knows comfort, does he?

0:08:08 > 0:08:10Look, you didn't do bad, did you? Considering you thought

0:08:10 > 0:08:13you wouldn't eat it. You took the pattern of that plate.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15I was starving. Not eaten all week!

0:08:15 > 0:08:17Why?

0:08:17 > 0:08:20Just with the move and everything - just been a bit upset by it.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22I always go off me food when I'm like that.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25I go the other way, though. I eat when I'm upset.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28- Do you? - I'm a bugger for it.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30Oh, God, I would be a size 20 if I was like that.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32I blame the advertising.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35Like on Cadbury's fingers, they say one's not enough.

0:08:35 > 0:08:36It's not, though.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39- I know, but they're telling you that.- My downfall is wine.

0:08:39 > 0:08:40I don't drink, you see.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43Do you know how many calories are in a glass of wine?

0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Not a clue.- Five of them. Five Fat Boys in a glass of wine.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48Really?

0:08:48 > 0:08:51I can drink a bottle and a half a night.

0:08:51 > 0:08:53How many Fat Boys is that?

0:08:53 > 0:08:5418.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59What time is it?

0:08:59 > 0:09:01Oh, ten to. Come on, we best make tracks.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03- Is it? It's gone quick, that. - I'll settle up.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05- I'll pay.- No, I'll pay.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07- I'll get it, I said in the car I'll get it.- I'll get it,

0:09:07 > 0:09:10put your purse away. I've got a loyalty card.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12Three more Fat Boys and I get a baseball cap.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14Oh, woopy doo! I'll go and put my face on, then.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16Right, I'll settle up.

0:09:19 > 0:09:23- Thanks, Janet, I'll see you next week, love.- OK.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26- All right, John.- Hiya, Tony. Bloody hell! How's it going?

0:09:26 > 0:09:27- Nice to see you, lad.- And you.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29Keeping busy?

0:09:29 > 0:09:31You know me, I never stop.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34Sorry to hear about your dad, that was awful.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36I didn't find out, you know, till after the funeral.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39I would have been there - you know that, don't you?

0:09:39 > 0:09:41- I know. I know.- He was a good pal of mine, your dad.

0:09:41 > 0:09:42You know, we went back years.

0:09:42 > 0:09:46We used to go out driving in the summer months. In the days before the breathalyser...

0:09:46 > 0:09:48It's a shame he's gone -

0:09:48 > 0:09:51I wanted to pick his brains about something.

0:09:51 > 0:09:52How's Joan?

0:09:52 > 0:09:55Still breathing, last time I checked. She's murder.

0:09:55 > 0:09:59She's running to the toilet every two minutes. We can't plan nothing.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02- How's Craig?- He's a waste of space, still at home.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05- You're joking?!- He won't leave as long as she's still doing his washing.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07And how are you?

0:10:07 > 0:10:09I'm up and down. I've been ill meself.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12- Have you?- Not as ill as your dad. Obviously.

0:10:12 > 0:10:17- Obviously.- But not far off. A rectal abscess.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19They sent me to London to see a specialist.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21I had to stand all the way.

0:10:21 > 0:10:23We've only got a Micra.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26- I'm joking, we went on the train. - Ah-ha! Yeah.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29- This place has gone downhill a bit, hasn't it?- Yeah, it has, hasn't it?

0:10:29 > 0:10:31I thought that. You used to get two fried bread.

0:10:31 > 0:10:32And the mugs are smaller.

0:10:32 > 0:10:36- Aren't they just? Aren't they? - Still...- Yeah...

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Mm. Still.

0:10:38 > 0:10:40- I only come in for the free Wi-Fi.- Oh, right.

0:10:40 > 0:10:44I get everything online now. I don't even have to leave the house.

0:10:44 > 0:10:45Piece of piss.

0:10:45 > 0:10:49- I'll have an hour now, Skyping my little lady friend in Phuket.- Yeah?

0:10:49 > 0:10:52- She's 21 today. - Like that, is it?

0:10:52 > 0:10:55Got her on me screensaver.

0:10:55 > 0:10:59Now you look at that and tell me you wouldn't.

0:10:59 > 0:11:02I'm flesh and blood. A man's got needs.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05I haven't had a sniff since we got Sky+.

0:11:05 > 0:11:09Joan's in bed for Emmerdale and I'm downstairs sexting Thailand.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12This one's just getting up for college.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17- Still...- If it was up to me, I would move out there like a shot.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20But Joan doesn't like the sun, miserable cow.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22If they take her back in to get her bladder sorted,

0:11:22 > 0:11:25I'm off on the first plane out of this shithole.

0:11:25 > 0:11:26It's not that bad.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29What? It's getting worse. It's like a ghost town.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31All the shops are closed down.

0:11:31 > 0:11:34The window cleaner's got a sander and the precinct,

0:11:34 > 0:11:38that's full of weirdos. And you get a few oddballs in here an' all.

0:11:38 > 0:11:40There's one.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46All right?

0:11:48 > 0:11:53Erm. Kayleigh, Tony, Tony, Kayleigh.

0:11:53 > 0:11:55We work together.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57Where? Down the pit?

0:11:57 > 0:11:59I can't believe you did that in there.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01What? You said we were late. I was trying to save time.

0:12:01 > 0:12:04- I won't be rushing back there in a hurry, will I?- I liked it.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06I mean you and your bloody black face.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08What? I'm a blackcurrant.

0:12:08 > 0:12:09They don't know that, do they?

0:12:09 > 0:12:11Oh. Nobody's bothered. You're too sensitive, John.

0:12:11 > 0:12:15I don't think you're going to get away being blacked up at work. Someone's going to complain.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17- Why?- Cos it's racist.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20- Well, you came up with the idea. - I didn't think you'd be blacking up.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23What? I'm a blackcurrant. I dressed as a yellow pepper last week.

0:12:23 > 0:12:26- No Chinese kicked off.- Jesus!

0:12:27 > 0:12:30Hurry up and get in before we get carjacked.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32Now who's being racist?

0:14:28 > 0:14:31- Hello.- Hiya, Kayleigh. You all right?- Yeah.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34Are you OK? You look at bit pasty.

0:14:34 > 0:14:37It's this make-up, Rachel.

0:14:37 > 0:14:41I can't get it off. I've been scrubbing it for half an hour.

0:14:44 > 0:14:46- You're looking well.- Isn't she?

0:14:46 > 0:14:48You off anywhere nice this weekend?

0:14:48 > 0:14:51I've got a Hindu in Newcastle for my mate Zahida.

0:14:51 > 0:14:52A Hindu?

0:14:52 > 0:14:54Well, it's a hen do for Hindus.

0:14:54 > 0:14:56Fair enough.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58Oh, I bet that'll be a laugh. I love a good hen do.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Hindu, tomay-to, tomah-to.

0:15:02 > 0:15:05Eh, you might meet yourself a nice Geordie fella, pet.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07Jesus.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09That's me Geordie accent. It's not an Indian.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11Don't do that at your Hindu.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14Anyway I'll text you over the weekend, John.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17- OK. Yeah. See you, Rachel, love. - Yeah, bye.- See you.

0:15:18 > 0:15:20She's got your number?

0:15:20 > 0:15:22Yeah, why?

0:15:35 > 0:15:39Let's not fall out, it's our last car share home together.

0:15:39 > 0:15:42I'm not falling out with you, John, I'm just saying

0:15:42 > 0:15:44Rachel said she'd text you.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47I wasn't even aware you'd swapped numbers.

0:15:47 > 0:15:48I didn't think it was that serious.

0:15:48 > 0:15:50It isn't serious at all. You've got my number.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53- Well, that's different. - Why's it different?

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Because I need your number.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58For...emergencies.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00What emergencies? You're just being weird again.

0:16:00 > 0:16:05Did you hear her? "I'm off to a Hindu hen do." She's cock-mad.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07- What?!- "Are you all right?

0:16:07 > 0:16:08"You look pasty." I'll paste her.

0:16:08 > 0:16:10I'll paste her to Newcastle and back.

0:16:10 > 0:16:13I can't work you out. One minute you're acting all pally with her

0:16:13 > 0:16:16and the next you're slagging her off. She took my number

0:16:16 > 0:16:19because I'm thinking of having her work on my Christmas team, all right?

0:16:19 > 0:16:22Oh! It gets worse.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27How many weeks - months - have I been dropping hints to you

0:16:27 > 0:16:30about your Christmas team? You know for a fact there's nobody loves

0:16:30 > 0:16:33Christmas more than me.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35And she's far too tall to be an elf.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37Who mentioned anything about bloody elves?

0:16:37 > 0:16:39I just assumed you'd have elves...

0:16:39 > 0:16:42That's your problem - you assume everything and most of the time you assume wrong.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Just because she's got me number doesn't mean

0:16:44 > 0:16:46she's got me bloody number.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49I like Rachel, she's OK. But she's not my type.

0:16:51 > 0:16:55- So what is your type? - I don't have a type!

0:16:55 > 0:16:57Do you not listen to anything I say?

0:16:57 > 0:17:00I've told you I'm happy with my life, on my own. Unlike you,

0:17:00 > 0:17:02I'm not searching for love or looking for somebody to spend

0:17:02 > 0:17:06the rest of my life with. I like my life just the way it is, all right?

0:17:06 > 0:17:07All right, OK.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09And I never fraternise with the staff. Ever!

0:17:09 > 0:17:12So I won't be having drinks with Rachel or anyone else,

0:17:12 > 0:17:14if that puts your mind at rest.

0:17:14 > 0:17:17- That's a relief.- I'm not as stupid as you think, you know.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19- I never said you were! - You might think I'm a bit square,

0:17:19 > 0:17:22but I've been round the block a few times, you know, and anybody

0:17:22 > 0:17:25with a brain knows Rachel's trying to shag her way up the ladder.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27Hey, that's my mate you're talking about.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30Get out of town. Psycho.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34Honestly, you drive me mad.

0:17:44 > 0:17:48So has my mate, Rachel, made it onto your Christmas team?

0:17:48 > 0:17:51All will be revealed next week.

0:17:51 > 0:17:53- Have I?- All will be revealed.

0:17:53 > 0:17:57Come on, don't keep me in suspenders. Have I?

0:17:57 > 0:18:00I've got a big meeting on Monday with Dave Thomson and Alan Campbell.

0:18:00 > 0:18:02- Who's Alan Campbell? - Area manager.

0:18:02 > 0:18:07Oh, yeah, he was at the staff pancake race. Shouts a lot?

0:18:07 > 0:18:09He's partially deaf.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12Yeah, he kept insisting on winning. Bit of an arse clown.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16I hope you don't end up like that.

0:18:16 > 0:18:20- Like what?- Like Alan Campbell and Dave Thompson.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22- What do you mean? - Idiot managers.

0:18:24 > 0:18:25Well, I hope not.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28I like to think because I'm aware of them being like that

0:18:28 > 0:18:31I won't end up like that,

0:18:31 > 0:18:33but things don't always work out like that, do they?

0:18:33 > 0:18:35Anyway. I hope I've moved on by then.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38- Store manager? - No, different job.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40I thought you really loved your job.

0:18:40 > 0:18:44It's all right, but if I'm honest, I wouldn't want to stay on this

0:18:44 > 0:18:47treadmill for the rest of me life.

0:18:47 > 0:18:48I kind of fell into retail, really.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52I wanted to go to music college but I couldn't afford it,

0:18:52 > 0:18:56so I took a job at the store to save some money and I'm still here.

0:18:56 > 0:18:5822 years later...

0:18:58 > 0:19:00God, I can't believe it's that long.

0:19:06 > 0:19:09- I didn't know you were a musician. - Yeah.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11What do you play?

0:19:12 > 0:19:16Keyboard, guitar, bit of drums.

0:19:16 > 0:19:19Oh, you're a right little Roy Castle.

0:19:21 > 0:19:25- That was always my big dream, music. - So why did you give it up?

0:19:25 > 0:19:29- I haven't, I still play. - Do you?- Yeah.- Where?

0:19:29 > 0:19:31Pubs, clubs. I've been gigging for years, on and off.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33How come you've never said about it before?

0:19:33 > 0:19:36Well, I don't like to brag.

0:19:36 > 0:19:37Have you ever had any hits?

0:19:37 > 0:19:41No. We just do covers mainly. Ah, I've written a few songs.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45- Really? Go on, sing me a song.- No.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48- Go on. Please sing me a song. - No. No. Not a chance.

0:19:48 > 0:19:50- Not a chance.- Do you sing?

0:19:50 > 0:19:52Yeah, a bit, yeah.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55- Exciting! So how many of them are you?- Eh?

0:19:55 > 0:19:58So how many of them are there in the band?

0:19:58 > 0:20:02Oh, we're just a duo now, myself and Jim.

0:20:02 > 0:20:03So what are you called?

0:20:03 > 0:20:06Compendium. You might have heard of us.

0:20:06 > 0:20:10- Compendium?- Yeah, because there were different sides to us. You know,

0:20:10 > 0:20:13like rock, soul, jazz, country.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15We were called John and Jim'll Fix It for years,

0:20:15 > 0:20:18but then we had to change that, for obvious reasons.

0:20:18 > 0:20:22It's very exciting! I'm sharing a car with a pop star.

0:20:22 > 0:20:24No, I don't think so.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26I'm dead jealous. I wish I could do something like that.

0:20:30 > 0:20:32Where's my phone?

0:22:55 > 0:22:59I won't miss this prick in front. Come on, I could walk faster!

0:23:02 > 0:23:04I'm going to miss it.
