One...two... | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
Oh, dear! | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
One...two... Oh! | 0:00:44 | 0:00:47 | |
One...two...three... Oh, dear. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:53 | |
That'll do. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
Now...press-ups. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
One. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:03 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
Are you in there? | 0:01:05 | 0:01:06 | |
No, Mother, I'm at the bottom of the garden. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:09 | |
Don't exaggerate. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:10 | |
What are you doing? | 0:01:10 | 0:01:12 | |
I'm thinking of doing the other half of this press-up. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:15 | |
Well, don't, you'll wake Aunt Esme. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
Do I have to remind you that she's our guest? | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
No, Mother, you've been reminding me every minute, on the minute, since she came here. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:24 | |
What are you dressed up like that for? Where are you going? | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
Twice round the park. You coming, Mother? You can nag me as we go. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:31 | |
You're not going anywhere. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
Aunt Esme's husband, your Great-Uncle Edgar, | 0:01:33 | 0:01:36 | |
was the man who invented flypaper. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:39 | |
Oh, that's different, Mother, I'm sorry! | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
How could I think of running round the park in that case? Good heavens! | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
People will say, "There goes that fellow whose great-uncle invented flypaper. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:47 | |
"Oh, he's running, aargh, disgusting." | 0:01:47 | 0:01:50 | |
What are you talking about? | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
I don't know, Mother, I'm just wittering on here. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
Well, I'm talking about, as you very well know, | 0:01:54 | 0:01:58 | |
M-O-N-E-Y. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
-Money? -We don't talk about money in this house. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
Yes, you do, Mother, constantly. Particularly when Aunt Esme's here. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
Your Father, who's a typical Lumsden, came to our marriage with nothing. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:12 | |
Luckily for you, there was a bit of gumption on my side | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
of the family...and money. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
There's certainly no flies on Great-Uncle Edgar. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
Not surprised, Mother, they're all on the flypaper. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
Don't be frivolous. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
I'm doing all this for you. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
With Aunt Esme's money, you could have a really good start in life. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
A good start, Mother? It's almost too late for a good middle! | 0:02:31 | 0:02:35 | |
I want you to make something of yourself, Timothy. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
I'm not a kit, Mother. You know, I'm fully assembled, you know? | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
Give or take a few odd pieces. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
-I'm not listening and don't let Aunt Esme see those shoes. -Why? | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
Well, I don't want her to think that we've got money to | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
-waste on fripperies like that. -Sebastian Coe wears these. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
Well, they certainly don't make him sing any better. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
He's not a singer, Mother. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
-He certainly isn't, you can tell him that, from me. -Oh, I give up. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:07 | |
Give up? Oh, yes, typical. So did your father. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
You were very nearly an only child. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
Flypaper! | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
"What are you doing, Timothy? Are you in there, Timothy? | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
"Are you breathing, Timothy? Stop it at once..." | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
Ooh! | 0:03:26 | 0:03:27 | |
Oh...dogs! | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
Dogs. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
BARKING | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
Oi! Oi! | 0:03:37 | 0:03:41 | |
Excuse me... | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
Oi, excuse me... | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
Is this yours? | 0:03:47 | 0:03:48 | |
What? | 0:03:48 | 0:03:49 | |
This. Is this yours? | 0:03:49 | 0:03:51 | |
The shoe? | 0:03:51 | 0:03:52 | |
Not the shoe. The addition. You know, the whatsit. The decorative border. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:57 | |
-Oh, you mean the doings? -The doings, yes. Is it yours? | 0:03:57 | 0:04:01 | |
Well, it's not mine, could be one of the dogs'. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
-It was one of your dogs, I saw it. -Then why did you step in it, then? | 0:04:04 | 0:04:07 | |
Well, that is not the point! | 0:04:07 | 0:04:08 | |
I saw the dog do it, I know which one it was. It was that one, him. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
Her. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:12 | |
Raquel, was that you? | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
Have you been doing your doings where you oughtn't to have done? | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
All right, all right, if it happens again, | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
don't think I won't be afraid to go to the authorities. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:23 | |
Well, I shouldn't do that if I were you. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:24 | |
I only have to say the word to these two and they'll have you. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
Don't you threaten me, you can get fined around here for that. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
Oh, well, Raquel will need time to pay, she's broke. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:34 | |
Cheerio, twinkle toes. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:35 | |
Oh, and if it should happen again, don't worry, finders keepers. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
Come on. Come on. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
And you. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:43 | |
Come on, pigeons. Come and do your doings on this nice man's car. | 0:04:57 | 0:05:02 | |
Come on. Come on, then. Come on, pigeons. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:05 | |
Eggy-peggies. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
Where is Timothy? | 0:05:15 | 0:05:17 | |
He's not still doing that stupid running, is he? | 0:05:17 | 0:05:20 | |
-Running? What a good idea! -Oh! | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
Oh, yes, isn't it? | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
He looks after himself so well and he thinks when he's running. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:29 | |
-Doesn't he, Sidney? -Eh, what? | 0:05:29 | 0:05:31 | |
Well, you know, ideas, schemes...for investment. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:36 | |
Not that he isn't very careful with money. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
Do you know, he queued up on the very first day for granny bonds. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:44 | |
-Can I take your knitting? -Thank you, Phyllis. -Ooh, lovely. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:49 | |
Timothy knits, you know. He knitted himself a purse. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:54 | |
-He's so careful with money, isn't he, Sidney? -Is he? | 0:05:54 | 0:05:58 | |
Oh, here you are. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:00 | |
Good gracious me. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:02 | |
Oh, breakfast in the dining room, eh? | 0:06:02 | 0:06:05 | |
Last time we were in here was for the lying in state of the canary. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:09 | |
Oh, lovely to see you. Well, how are you this morning, Esme? | 0:06:10 | 0:06:14 | |
Great-Aunt Esme. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
A little tired. It was a long drive for an old lady. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:19 | |
Oh, I'm sure, yes. I'm sure. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:22 | |
I was only thinking, you know, that we really only met twice before. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
The last time was, of course, Uncle Edgar's funeral. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
Timothy, please, we don't talk about funerals at this house | 0:06:29 | 0:06:33 | |
and particularly not at breakfast. | 0:06:33 | 0:06:35 | |
We all loved Edgar, even though we were, none of us, | 0:06:35 | 0:06:39 | |
lucky enough to know him. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:40 | |
But of one thing I'm sure, he's in a better place than this. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:46 | |
That wouldn't be too difficult! | 0:06:46 | 0:06:48 | |
Timothy, eat your Rice Krispies. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
-Grape-Nuts, Mother. -Language, Timothy! | 0:06:51 | 0:06:55 | |
Shut up, Sidney. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:56 | |
Fair enough. | 0:06:56 | 0:06:57 | |
Timothy's doing awfully well at the library, aren't you, Timothy? | 0:07:00 | 0:07:05 | |
Pardon? | 0:07:08 | 0:07:09 | |
SHE MOUTHS | 0:07:09 | 0:07:10 | |
What are you trying to say, Mother? | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
Are you having trouble with your teeth, or what? | 0:07:12 | 0:07:15 | |
Or are we having subtitles for this bit? | 0:07:15 | 0:07:17 | |
Be quiet. | 0:07:17 | 0:07:19 | |
He's really a very sweet boy and he is doing well at the library. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:24 | |
Mind you, they don't pay them very much. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
Mother, I thought in this household we didn't discuss M-O-N-E-Y? | 0:07:27 | 0:07:30 | |
Sh! | 0:07:30 | 0:07:32 | |
He's very sensitive, you know, | 0:07:32 | 0:07:34 | |
when he was a little boy, he saw a snap of me taken when I was... | 0:07:34 | 0:07:39 | |
carrying | 0:07:39 | 0:07:40 | |
and, do you know, he apologised for giving me a big tummy. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:45 | |
I thought that was me! | 0:07:45 | 0:07:47 | |
TIMOTHY AND SIDNEY LAUGH | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
SIDNEY WHEEZES | 0:07:50 | 0:07:53 | |
Don't be disgusting! | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
Timothy...don't encourage him. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
I think Timothy's a little overexcited with your being here. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:04 | |
Every night when he says his prayers, last of all he says, | 0:08:06 | 0:08:10 | |
"God bless Aunt Esme." | 0:08:10 | 0:08:11 | |
-TIMOTHY BASHES HIS EGG REPEATEDLY -And then I tuck him up. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:14 | |
He saves all his pennies, he has a great sense of respons... | 0:08:14 | 0:08:19 | |
What are you doing with that egg?! | 0:08:19 | 0:08:21 | |
Pretending it's you, Mother! | 0:08:21 | 0:08:22 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
Who was it who said, | 0:08:25 | 0:08:27 | |
"The family that laughs together, stays together?" | 0:08:27 | 0:08:31 | |
Nobody, Mother. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:32 | |
And it's not true and it doesn't rhyme. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:08:35 | 0:08:37 | |
I've just been down to the park, Aunt Esme. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
He says he's just been down to the park, Aunt Esme. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:49 | |
-And what did you do there, Timothy? -I trod in something. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:53 | |
He says he trod in some... | 0:08:53 | 0:08:56 | |
Timothy, Esme doesn't want to know about that, | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
especially when she's eating her egg. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:01 | |
It was nothing like an egg, Mother, not remotely. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:03 | |
-That's got nothing to do with it. -Oh, but I do. -Do what, dear? | 0:09:03 | 0:09:06 | |
I want to hear about it. I'm most interested. You see, I... | 0:09:06 | 0:09:09 | |
Oh, that's all right, then. Aunt Esme does want to hear... | 0:09:09 | 0:09:14 | |
I know, Mother, I know. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:16 | |
Aunt Esme and I can have a conversation without | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
the use of an interpreter, you know. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:20 | |
Aunt Esme is a woman of the world. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:23 | |
She's probably seen more dogs' doings than we've had hot dinners. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:26 | |
Timothy! | 0:09:26 | 0:09:27 | |
-Sorry, cold dinners, Mother. -Timothy! -Sorry, Father. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:31 | |
Don't be misled, Esme. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:33 | |
He's a wonderful son in every possible way - kind, generous, | 0:09:33 | 0:09:38 | |
-but careful. -Mother, Aunt Esme knows life. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:42 | |
You're not going to be able to persuade her that I'm | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
a cross between Goody Two-Shoes and Nicholas Parsons. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:47 | |
-You are a sweet boy. -I am not, Mother. -Yes, you are. -No, I'm not! | 0:09:47 | 0:09:52 | |
I once stuck chewing gum under my chair at the church. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:56 | |
I live in the real world, Mother, the world of dog-eat-dog, | 0:09:56 | 0:09:59 | |
the world of dogs' doings. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:01 | |
Will you be quiet about dogs? | 0:10:01 | 0:10:03 | |
I was once thrown off a bus for spitting, you know. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:06 | |
It wasn't actually me. And when you thought dear sweet little me | 0:10:06 | 0:10:09 | |
was out in the garden digging dear sweet little me's garden, | 0:10:09 | 0:10:12 | |
I was, in fact, killing greenfly with a magnifying glass. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:15 | |
Good boy, Timothy. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:17 | |
Shut up, Sidney. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
And as for being careful with money, | 0:10:19 | 0:10:20 | |
I once lost £4.13 and seven pence on the throw of a single conker | 0:10:20 | 0:10:25 | |
and on a Saturday night when I've had a few, or let's face it, | 0:10:25 | 0:10:29 | |
when I've had one, I'm nothing short of an evil-minded, foul-mouthed, | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
over-bearing rapscallion. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:34 | |
It's a stage he's going through. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:39 | |
And it's not "a stage I'm going through", either! | 0:10:41 | 0:10:44 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:10:44 | 0:10:46 | |
-SIDNEY: -Who's in there? | 0:10:49 | 0:10:50 | |
-Are you alone? -Yes, all clear. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:57 | |
Have you been in here all morning? | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
I thought you were inside, trying to impress Aunt Esme. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:07 | |
Oh, dear, I got fed up with Mother parading my virtues. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:11 | |
When she sent me to get my A Level certificates, I got out of it. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:15 | |
Well, she stopped parading my virtues 40 years ago. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:18 | |
Oh, dear, she's doing that | 0:11:20 | 0:11:21 | |
"decent folk with not a penny to their name" bit at the moment. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:25 | |
Aunt Esme's sitting there, Mother's turning all my shirt collars, | 0:11:25 | 0:11:29 | |
they don't need turning. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:31 | |
She even put leather patches on the elbow of my dressing gown. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:35 | |
-Keep her busy, Timothy. -Yeah, I know, we've all got to suffer, haven't we? | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
Aunt Esme must be bored to tears. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:40 | |
Do you know what Mother's doing now in order to show how careful we've got to be with money? | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
She has gone out and bought a 28lb tin of ex-WD apricot jam. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:50 | |
-It'll take us a year to eat that. -Not me, I don't eat apricot. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:54 | |
Oh, thank you very much, two years, then. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:11:56 | 0:11:57 | |
It's all in a good cause, this, you know, Timothy. | 0:11:57 | 0:11:59 | |
A bit of money could set you up in the world, you know? | 0:11:59 | 0:12:02 | |
Little sports car, eh? Brum, brum... | 0:12:02 | 0:12:05 | |
Cheese cutter... String-back gloves... Spaniel... | 0:12:05 | 0:12:09 | |
I don't want a Spaniel, Father. I've got a pair of string-back gloves. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:13 | |
Well, one, anyway. I mean, as a boy all I needed was £10, that's all. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:18 | |
-Well, £10 wouldn't have got you far. -Australia? | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
Oh, cheer up, Timmy. I know what will make you laugh. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
It always used to when you were little, remember? Watch this. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:32 | |
SIDNEY SQUEAKS | 0:12:32 | 0:12:34 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:12:34 | 0:12:36 | |
Oh, dear. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:37 | |
Now for the bad news... | 0:12:39 | 0:12:41 | |
-We're all going to the library after tea. -What? | 0:12:42 | 0:12:46 | |
-Yeah, to show Aunt Esme where you work. -Oh, no, goodness... | 0:12:46 | 0:12:50 | |
I don't want her money. I'm going to hide in the coal bunker. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:53 | |
No, I've got a better idea, let's go and hide in the pub. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:57 | |
Now? In broad daylight? | 0:12:57 | 0:13:00 | |
Mother will hear us start the car. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:01 | |
No, no, no... | 0:13:01 | 0:13:02 | |
We'll push it down the drive and start it up around the corner. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:06 | |
Oh, ho-ho, very good thinking! | 0:13:06 | 0:13:09 | |
One-up to the escape committee. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:11 | |
Officer material, Timothy, runs in the family. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:15 | |
What, your nose, you mean? | 0:13:16 | 0:13:17 | |
SIDNEY COUGHS AND WHEEZES | 0:13:25 | 0:13:28 | |
You drive. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:38 | |
It's locked. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:47 | |
Here's the key. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:49 | |
Oh, this is all a terrible dream. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:56 | |
Just let me waken up and I promise not to stick any more chewing gum under thy chairs. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:03 | |
-It's hit a skip. -Yes, I had noticed, Father. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:07 | |
-What do you want to do that for? -What did I want to do it...? | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
Suddenly I'm all alone? Look, we're in this together. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:11 | |
-It's not good enough, Timothy. -Not good enough? | 0:14:11 | 0:14:14 | |
Would you like me to get out and do it again? | 0:14:14 | 0:14:16 | |
-What about damage to the skip? -Oh. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:18 | |
You've really gone and done it now. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:21 | |
Look, please, this is a family matter, pure and simple, | 0:14:21 | 0:14:23 | |
-mind your own business. -Timothy. -Sorry, Father. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:26 | |
This'll be the devil's own job to get repaired. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:28 | |
-Stupid idea of yours in the first place. -My idea? | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
Now I see what you mean about officer material. | 0:14:31 | 0:14:33 | |
-Well, I'm going home, it's nothing to do with me. -Oh, that's charming. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:36 | |
Leaving the sinking ship. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:37 | |
No, it's not that, Timothy, your mother will skin me alive. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:40 | |
And have me for afters! | 0:14:40 | 0:14:42 | |
We're supposed to be going out this afternoon. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:45 | |
Where will I get this repaired before then? | 0:14:45 | 0:14:46 | |
-It's going to cost you a pretty packet, too. -Me? Me? | 0:14:46 | 0:14:49 | |
You'll have to go to Denny Willman's. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:51 | |
Look, when I want your advice, I'll ask for it. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:55 | |
-Where did you say? -Denny Willman's, he does quick lash-ups. | 0:14:55 | 0:14:59 | |
You go over the level crossing, past Turner's and first left. | 0:14:59 | 0:15:02 | |
Right. | 0:15:02 | 0:15:04 | |
DOGS BARK | 0:15:15 | 0:15:17 | |
Shut up, Raquel. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:21 | |
Yes, chief? | 0:15:33 | 0:15:35 | |
ASSUMES FAKE ACCENT: Hello, please... | 0:15:38 | 0:15:40 | |
You mend my car... | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
OK? The bonnet is chop-chop. OK? | 0:15:43 | 0:15:46 | |
God help us! | 0:15:46 | 0:15:48 | |
Where are you from? | 0:15:48 | 0:15:49 | |
Greece. I'm Greek. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:51 | |
Ah! Kalos irthes! | 0:15:51 | 0:15:53 | |
Eh? | 0:15:53 | 0:15:54 | |
HE SPEAKS GREEK | 0:15:54 | 0:15:58 | |
All right, well, I'm not THAT Greek. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
-I know you, don't I? -No, don't think so. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:09 | |
Take them glasses off. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:10 | |
No, no, no, no. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:11 | |
You, this morning, in the park, | 0:16:13 | 0:16:16 | |
you made them pigeons go all over me motor. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
-No, I didn't. -Yes, you did. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:21 | |
All right, I did, but it was only a joke. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
Well, it took me 20 minutes to get off. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:25 | |
Well, I'm very sorry, I'm sorry, it was only a joke, you know? | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
-I'm very sorry. -I'm sorry too, but it's not enough. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:30 | |
All right, I'm very, very, very, very, very sorry. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:32 | |
It could cost you, that could. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:34 | |
All right, all right, then, grovel, grovel, grovel. Humble pie. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:38 | |
Oily rag, rub nose in it, eh? | 0:16:38 | 0:16:40 | |
-Rub your nose again, eh? Is that better? -What are you doing that for? | 0:16:40 | 0:16:43 | |
Oh, I don't know, I just thought it might make it... Come over here. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
Look at this. Some fellow has... hit-and-run driver | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
-hit my car, look at that. -Oh, dear. Oh, dear, oh, dear. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:54 | |
Now, that IS going to cost you. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:56 | |
And what with my backlog... Wednesday all right? | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
Wednesday? Oh, I was rather hoping for Tuesday. | 0:16:59 | 0:17:03 | |
Leaning towards Monday, at a pinch Sunday. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:06 | |
Actually, I need it today. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:08 | |
Well, you up the ante, old son, and you can have it yesterday. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:11 | |
Oh, you can do it, then? All right, then, we'll say that. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:13 | |
-Tea-time? -You must be made of money. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:15 | |
Well, no, I could take your dogs for a walk if you like. I like dogs. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:19 | |
Well, I like pilchards but it's still going to cost you. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
-Plus your VAT, 25%. -Of course, of course. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:25 | |
Well, we'll give it a go. You come back at six. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:28 | |
Six, right... No, tea-time - four. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:30 | |
Oh, posh tea-time? Well, it's extra for being middle class. | 0:17:30 | 0:17:33 | |
-Only fair, isn't it? Good gracious, I shall miss my lunch. -Oh, luncheon? | 0:17:35 | 0:17:39 | |
Better run. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:41 | |
Hey, I shouldn't run in this place if I was you. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:43 | |
DOGS BARK | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
Oh, put him down, Raquel. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
Is there anything I can do, Phyllis? | 0:17:48 | 0:17:51 | |
Yes, you can get out from under my feet. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:54 | |
I thought you were meant to be entertaining Esme. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
Show her those pictures of Tim in the nativity play. | 0:17:56 | 0:18:00 | |
He looks such a poppet in swaddling clothes. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:03 | |
-Fair enough. -And give her a glass of sherry. -Can do. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:06 | |
Ouch! Ooh! Lummy-kins! | 0:18:06 | 0:18:08 | |
Oh, sorry. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:11 | |
Where have you been? | 0:18:11 | 0:18:12 | |
Something terrible's happened to your nose. | 0:18:12 | 0:18:15 | |
It's just a bit of oil, that's all. | 0:18:15 | 0:18:16 | |
There's nothing wrong with the car, is there? | 0:18:16 | 0:18:18 | |
No, no, no, no, what? No. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:20 | |
-Then why are you covered in oil? -Well, it's... | 0:18:20 | 0:18:24 | |
it's rag week. Oily rag week, you know. | 0:18:24 | 0:18:27 | |
Students from the technical college, you know. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
If you don't give them 50p, they rub your nose with an oily rag. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:33 | |
Boys will be boys...and girls, of course. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:36 | |
I don't mean boys will be girls, that would be... | 0:18:36 | 0:18:38 | |
Who's been at your trousers? | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
Raquel, Mother. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:42 | |
Don't worry, it's a dog. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:44 | |
She got very annoyed with me cos I trod in something she'd done. Again. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:48 | |
Not when I'm cooking, please. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:49 | |
Have you got any more...? | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
Hello, Father. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:53 | |
Everything is OK with the car, bingo. Bingo with the car. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:57 | |
-What do you mean, bingo? -Bingo with the car. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
Bingo? Have you been at bingo? | 0:19:00 | 0:19:02 | |
No, no, Mother, I'm just telling Father that everything is all right. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:05 | |
What? Everything all right? | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
You won at bingo? | 0:19:07 | 0:19:08 | |
-No, no. -You lost? | 0:19:08 | 0:19:10 | |
No, no, I didn't. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:11 | |
I've just been telling Esme how careful you are with your money. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:15 | |
What are you doing back in here?! | 0:19:15 | 0:19:16 | |
The sherry's all finished. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:18 | |
Well, we've got more. I'm surrounded by idiots. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:21 | |
Steady on, Phyllis. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:23 | |
I'm not an idiot, Mother, I'll get you the sherry. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:25 | |
No sooner said than done. Where is it? | 0:19:25 | 0:19:27 | |
-It's in the boot of the car. -Ah, right. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:30 | |
-In the boot? -Yes. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:34 | |
-Of the car? -Yes. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:38 | |
Go on, Timothy, don't dither. Oh, I'll get it. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:43 | |
You wash your face properly and put some water on your hair, | 0:19:43 | 0:19:46 | |
it's sticking up at the back. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:48 | |
I'm going to ask Esme if she wants her tapioca hot or cold. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:52 | |
-The car's not there! -I know that! I took it to be repaired. | 0:19:54 | 0:19:57 | |
-Where's the sherry, then? -Still in it, I suppose. | 0:19:57 | 0:20:00 | |
Good God! Coal bunker here I come. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:02 | |
No, no, no, why don't you go outside, | 0:20:02 | 0:20:05 | |
come back in and say you dropped it? | 0:20:05 | 0:20:08 | |
What, all of it? | 0:20:08 | 0:20:09 | |
Well, you can't drop half a bottle, can you? | 0:20:09 | 0:20:12 | |
Seems a bit of a waste. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:14 | |
Your Aunt Esme's dying of thirst in there. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:19 | |
-Mother, I'm very worried about father. -Why? | 0:20:19 | 0:20:21 | |
-He's dropping things. -No, he isn't. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
He is dropping things, Mother, all the time. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:26 | |
Something you're going to have to live with, he is dropping things. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:31 | |
Yesterday, he dropped several things on top of several other things. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:36 | |
Anything that is smooth and shiny, he drops, Mother. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:40 | |
-He doesn't! -Mother, he drops... -Phyllis, the bottle is... | 0:20:40 | 0:20:43 | |
You're not going to tell me you've dropped it, are you? | 0:20:43 | 0:20:46 | |
-Yes, how did you know? -Told you, Mother, you see? | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
-Well, go and get the other one. -The other one? | 0:20:50 | 0:20:53 | |
-There were two bottles in the boot. -Were there? Oh... | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
I'll go, I'll go. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:00 | |
-Phyllis. -Yes? -I'm a bit worried about Timothy. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:05 | |
You're not going to tell me he keeps dropping things too? | 0:21:05 | 0:21:07 | |
Good Lord, have you noticed as well? | 0:21:07 | 0:21:09 | |
Must be hereditary, I've dropped it. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:11 | |
I don't believe a word of this. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:14 | |
-Hello, everyone. -Oh, Aunt Esme. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:17 | |
It's rather cold and lonely in the front room. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:19 | |
Oh, come here, sit down in the kitchen. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:21 | |
Goodness me, didn't think about that. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:23 | |
This is where it happens, isn't it, Father? Where's Mother? | 0:21:23 | 0:21:26 | |
Where's the car? | 0:21:26 | 0:21:28 | |
-What? It's not there, Father. -Isn't it? -No, it isn't. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:32 | |
-Has somebody stolen it, Father? -Well, I didn't hear it go. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:35 | |
Well, they're damn clever these days. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:38 | |
They take them apart, you know. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:40 | |
-But the garage doors are still locked. -Well, that proves it. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:43 | |
And what about those two bottles you said you dropped? | 0:21:43 | 0:21:45 | |
-There's no mess out there. -They must've pinched that as well. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:49 | |
-Broken glass? -They'll stoop at nothing these people. Honestly. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:54 | |
So, there is no sherry? | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
Oh, Esme, why don't you go and sit in the front room? | 0:21:56 | 0:22:00 | |
I've been sitting there for the last hour and it's too cold to knit. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:04 | |
I'm going to phone the police. | 0:22:04 | 0:22:05 | |
No, Mother, don't, I'm sure it will turn up, the car, | 0:22:05 | 0:22:08 | |
probably about four o'clockish. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:10 | |
-Well, why should it? -Well... These things, we don't worry about... | 0:22:10 | 0:22:14 | |
Nonsense! I'm going to ring 999. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
Mother, don't ring the police, they'll be too busy. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:18 | |
-Don't be so silly. -It's lunchtime, Mother! | 0:22:18 | 0:22:20 | |
-Lunchtime? Lunch! The Yorkshire puddings! -Oh, my! Oh, dear. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:25 | |
SHE COUGHS | 0:22:26 | 0:22:28 | |
Good Lord! Home-made charcoal biscuits. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:33 | |
-You ring the police, Timothy. -Yes, right, Mother. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:38 | |
Hello, is that the police? | 0:22:44 | 0:22:47 | |
This is Timothy Lumsden of 29 Ravenscroft Avenue. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:51 | |
I'm ringing on behalf of my mother. I want to report a stolen car. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:54 | |
Black Morris Minor, registration number XWA 792. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:59 | |
Timothy, you are not speaking into the instrument. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:02 | |
No, there's nobody here, actually. Sorry, sorry. | 0:23:04 | 0:23:07 | |
Timothy, what is happening? | 0:23:09 | 0:23:10 | |
Well, Aunt Esme, it's a long story but I do know what I'm doing. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:14 | |
-Oh, no, you don't. -Oh, no, I don't. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
What's happened to the car? Where is it? What have you done with it? | 0:23:17 | 0:23:21 | |
All right. You know the money that you may or may not be leaving to me? | 0:23:21 | 0:23:26 | |
Yes. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:28 | |
You don't happen to have any of it on you at the moment, do you? | 0:23:28 | 0:23:31 | |
You don't need to come. You stay here and knit. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:39 | |
I've been knitting the whole damn morning. | 0:23:39 | 0:23:41 | |
I want to get my hands on that sherry. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:43 | |
-Come on, we'll take my car. -All right, shall I drive? | 0:23:43 | 0:23:46 | |
No way! | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
Timothy, where are you going? | 0:23:55 | 0:23:57 | |
Have you rung the police? | 0:23:59 | 0:24:01 | |
I'll have to do it myself. | 0:24:03 | 0:24:05 | |
DOG BARKS | 0:24:06 | 0:24:10 | |
-There we are, chief. -Oh, lovely. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:15 | |
-I even missed me dinner. Oh, luncheon, I should say. -Ha! | 0:24:15 | 0:24:18 | |
Still, it is done. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:20 | |
And I found a nice new wing on another motor. | 0:24:20 | 0:24:22 | |
-Oh, great. -Who's this, your mother? | 0:24:22 | 0:24:25 | |
No, no, it's my aunt. Aunt Esme, this is Mr Willman. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:28 | |
-How do you do? -Charmed, I'm sure. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:30 | |
Now, there was problems. It wasn't Morris Minor bodywork I found. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:34 | |
What sort of problems, then? | 0:24:34 | 0:24:36 | |
-Expensive problems. -Oh. | 0:24:36 | 0:24:37 | |
I had to scrap the rest of the Buick. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:39 | |
So that's 180 plus your VAT, | 0:24:41 | 0:24:45 | |
-let's say 250. -What?! | 0:24:45 | 0:24:48 | |
Oh, well, I could take the car in part payment, of course, | 0:24:48 | 0:24:51 | |
but I don't want it. | 0:24:51 | 0:24:52 | |
-RADIO: -Roger, X-ray, Tango, we have a stolen car. Morris Minor, black. | 0:24:54 | 0:25:00 | |
X-ray, Whiskey, Alpha, 792. | 0:25:00 | 0:25:02 | |
Reported by a Mrs Lumsden. | 0:25:02 | 0:25:05 | |
79... | 0:25:06 | 0:25:08 | |
This car's hot! | 0:25:08 | 0:25:09 | |
Hot? | 0:25:10 | 0:25:11 | |
What do you mean - overheating? | 0:25:13 | 0:25:15 | |
-Nicked, stolen. -Oh, no, it's not. -Well, the police said it was. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:19 | |
No, I promise you, it's... | 0:25:19 | 0:25:21 | |
I'm afraid it is nicked, yes. | 0:25:21 | 0:25:25 | |
Oh, you're trade, then? | 0:25:25 | 0:25:27 | |
-Why didn't you say so? -Well, he's very modest. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:31 | |
Oh, you two work in a parish, then? | 0:25:31 | 0:25:33 | |
A couple of pros down from the Smoke, like? | 0:25:33 | 0:25:35 | |
-Yes, I'm afraid we are. -A bit. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:37 | |
I took you for a punter! Half pint of nothing. | 0:25:37 | 0:25:40 | |
Let's call it 30 quid. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:45 | |
And, as for the VAT, up them! | 0:25:45 | 0:25:48 | |
Very gracious. | 0:25:48 | 0:25:49 | |
Oh, no trouble, no trouble, and if you want the plates doing... | 0:25:49 | 0:25:52 | |
No, no, it's all right. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:54 | |
-No, no, no, any little job because Denny's your man. -30 quid. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:58 | |
Thank you. | 0:25:58 | 0:25:59 | |
-Oh, my car needs a wash. -A wash? | 0:25:59 | 0:26:03 | |
Yeah, yeah, we're doing a bit of a job down Bournemouth way, | 0:26:03 | 0:26:05 | |
you know what I mean? | 0:26:05 | 0:26:07 | |
Can't be too careful, you know what I mean? | 0:26:07 | 0:26:08 | |
Oh, oh, oh, the carriage trade? Oh, say no more. I'll give it a waxing. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:13 | |
-Thank you. -All right, Aunt Esme. | 0:26:13 | 0:26:15 | |
Oh, Bonnie and Clyde ain't in it. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:19 | |
DOG BARKS | 0:26:19 | 0:26:21 | |
Put him down, Raquel, he's one of us. | 0:26:21 | 0:26:24 | |
I thought I did that rather well. | 0:26:28 | 0:26:30 | |
Cheers. Yes, there's hope for you yet. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
Only worry is, how are we going to get this car | 0:26:33 | 0:26:36 | |
back into the garage without Mother seeing? | 0:26:36 | 0:26:39 | |
That's the least of your worries. Look, the law. | 0:26:39 | 0:26:42 | |
Can't go any faster. I've tried the choke. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:51 | |
I shook them off. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:01 | |
Sh! Yes, there it is, look, a helicopter. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:05 | |
Do they have helicopters? | 0:27:06 | 0:27:08 | |
-Don't you worry, it'll turn up soon enough. -I hope so. | 0:27:08 | 0:27:11 | |
-I can't see them any more. Slow down. -What? | 0:27:16 | 0:27:20 | |
-Hold tight, Aunt Esme, we're nearly home. -Slow down! | 0:27:20 | 0:27:23 | |
CAR SKIDS AND THUDS | 0:27:23 | 0:27:25 | |
Sorry. | 0:27:33 | 0:27:34 | |
I can't sleep a wink. | 0:27:44 | 0:27:45 | |
-You know, I can't sleep a wink. -Yes, Mum. -You threw it all away. | 0:27:47 | 0:27:52 | |
What must Esme have thought of you? | 0:27:54 | 0:27:56 | |
You woke her up, ruined lunch, crashed the car twice, | 0:27:56 | 0:28:00 | |
demolished a police car and we never got to the library. | 0:28:00 | 0:28:04 | |
She must think you're reckless, hard-driving, | 0:28:06 | 0:28:09 | |
totally irresponsible and unworthy. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:12 | |
-She told me who was going to get the money. -What? | 0:28:13 | 0:28:17 | |
-Timothy, you're not fibbing, are you? -No. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:20 | |
-She told you? -Yes. | 0:28:20 | 0:28:23 | |
Timothy, are you pleased? | 0:28:23 | 0:28:26 | |
-Yes, Mother. -VERY pleased? | 0:28:26 | 0:28:29 | |
-Yes, Mother. -Oh, Timmy! | 0:28:29 | 0:28:33 | |
We've done it. | 0:28:33 | 0:28:35 | |
I knew I'd brought you up properly. | 0:28:35 | 0:28:37 | |
It was that picture of you in the crib. | 0:28:37 | 0:28:40 | |
The reason I'm pleased, Mother, is that Aunt Esme told me | 0:28:40 | 0:28:43 | |
-that years ago she set up a trust fund... -Yes? | 0:28:43 | 0:28:46 | |
..for the provision of dog lavatories throughout Britain. | 0:28:46 | 0:28:50 | |
I think I'm going to be sick. | 0:28:54 | 0:28:56 | |
Not while I'm drinking my cocoa, please. | 0:28:58 | 0:29:00 | |
