0:00:22 > 0:00:25Dad, I'm making a list for tomorrow's shop.

0:00:25 > 0:00:27I want to get something special for Mum's visit.

0:00:27 > 0:00:31Do we have to discuss this tonight, Susan? I'm tired.

0:00:31 > 0:00:33I've been in the park all day

0:00:33 > 0:00:36nailing warning signs to conker trees.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38Warning signs?

0:00:38 > 0:00:41"When using the fruit of council-owned horse chestnuts

0:00:41 > 0:00:43"for recreational purposes,

0:00:43 > 0:00:46"goggles must be worn."

0:00:46 > 0:00:50Boom! You've totally made the Baselricky Bugle, Gerald!

0:00:50 > 0:00:52"Conker killjoys say no to fun.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55"What a bunch of horse chest nutters!"

0:00:56 > 0:00:59I am aware of the media backlash, Victoria,

0:00:59 > 0:01:04but I will not be pressurised into hypothetically endangering

0:01:04 > 0:01:08the notional sight of a theoretical child.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10Never mind the Baselricky Bugle,

0:01:10 > 0:01:12I want to talk to you about Mum's visit.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14It's our first family tea since the divorce.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16Family?

0:01:16 > 0:01:18A family is what your mother left.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20Families change, Dad.

0:01:20 > 0:01:24I'm with Victoria now and Mum's with Kyle and we have to welcome him.

0:01:24 > 0:01:29I want you to make your famous onion quiche with Italian salami.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32Susan, is that a satellite bin bag?

0:01:32 > 0:01:34- What?- It is!

0:01:34 > 0:01:36It's a satellite bin.

0:01:36 > 0:01:38How many times do I have to tell you, girls,

0:01:38 > 0:01:41when the swing bin is full,

0:01:41 > 0:01:42you have to empty it!

0:01:42 > 0:01:48Creating a satellite out of a plastic carrier bag from the supermarket

0:01:48 > 0:01:52can only defer and redouble the inconvenience

0:01:52 > 0:01:56whilst simultaneously diminishing the quality of the home environment!

0:01:58 > 0:01:59Oh, my God! Bin rage!

0:01:59 > 0:02:01I couldn't get the bag out.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03No, Susan, because yet again,

0:02:03 > 0:02:07you and Victoria have stuffed it

0:02:07 > 0:02:10fuller than a banker's bonus!

0:02:11 > 0:02:13It is a bin.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Its capacity is limited by its parameters.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19Did you think it was bigger on the inside?

0:02:21 > 0:02:23Like Dr Who's TARDIS?

0:02:24 > 0:02:29I'm going to have to clamp it between my legs and tease it out.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33Go on! Come on!

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Come on, come on.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38This is so a YouTube moment.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40Vic, stop it!

0:02:40 > 0:02:43Well, he's humping it. Like a dog on a leg.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45What was your plan, girls?

0:02:45 > 0:02:48Were you ever going to address the core problem?

0:02:48 > 0:02:50Or just keep adding satellites

0:02:50 > 0:02:53until you'd exchanged a full bin bag in the kitchen

0:02:53 > 0:02:56for a kitchen full of bin bags?

0:02:56 > 0:02:57Never mind bin bags, Dad,

0:02:57 > 0:03:00are you going to cook Mum and Kyle your quiche or aren't you?

0:03:00 > 0:03:02No, I am not.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05I have agreed to attend this tea for your sake

0:03:05 > 0:03:07but I am not going to play happy families

0:03:07 > 0:03:10with the preening body builder.

0:03:10 > 0:03:15I knew he was a swine the first moment he showed up.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18The moment I saw that waxed chest.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20It's just personal grooming.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24Oh, is that what you call it? I call it fiddling with yourself.

0:03:25 > 0:03:29Why can't everybody stop fiddling with themselves?!

0:03:29 > 0:03:34Piercing, waxing, shaving, plucking.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37Sticking nails in their nipples

0:03:37 > 0:03:39and bolts in their belly buttons.

0:03:39 > 0:03:43Rings through their noses, dinner plates in their ear lobes.

0:03:43 > 0:03:49Just leave yourselves alone for a moment! Join a book club.

0:03:49 > 0:03:51Do some social work.

0:03:51 > 0:03:52I am so going to Songify this.

0:03:52 > 0:03:56He probably waxes his scrotum.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01They do, these metrosexuals.

0:04:01 > 0:04:02In was in the Mail.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06Ten years ago, that sort of thing would only have ever happened

0:04:06 > 0:04:08on a Japanese game show!

0:04:10 > 0:04:14Now, if you'll excuse me, I am trying to focus

0:04:14 > 0:04:18on the extraction of an overstuffed bin liner,

0:04:18 > 0:04:22which is a very delicate operation.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25Always being careful not...!

0:04:27 > 0:04:29To rip the top of the bag?

0:04:29 > 0:04:31Don't you hate that?

0:04:39 > 0:04:45Good shot, Bernard! Welcome to the wonderful world of Bonkers!

0:04:45 > 0:04:46Contrary to reports in the media,

0:04:46 > 0:04:50Team Health and Safety is saying yes to fun.

0:04:50 > 0:04:55In fact, we're saying, "Hello, fun, you're welcome in Baselricky

0:04:55 > 0:04:59"as long as you don't blind a child."

0:04:59 > 0:05:02So, Clive, on a scale of one to ten,

0:05:02 > 0:05:04how much fun were you having?

0:05:04 > 0:05:06Is ten high or low, Gerald?

0:05:06 > 0:05:08High, Clive, always high.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10As in ten out of ten or a perfect ten.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12Ten top. One bottom.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15One bottom is always the rule.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18- Yes, that's absolutely right. - Thank you, Bernard.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21Although Antipodean opossums do have two vaginas.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26I'm sorry, Bernard. I think I must be going deaf.

0:05:26 > 0:05:32I thought you just said that Antipodean opossums have two vaginas.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34Just a bit of pub quiz trivia for you there, Gerald.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37You said that one bottom was always the rule,

0:05:37 > 0:05:39which is, in fact, correct.

0:05:39 > 0:05:41No creature has two bottoms,

0:05:41 > 0:05:46but amazingly, most female marsupials have two vaginas.

0:05:46 > 0:05:48Lucky male marsupials.

0:05:48 > 0:05:52We don't make smutty comments in our fluros, Clive.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55The males have double-headed penises.

0:05:57 > 0:06:01I hate to think of the state of their toilet floors!

0:06:01 > 0:06:02People, please!

0:06:02 > 0:06:06Can we drop the subject of marsupial genitalia

0:06:06 > 0:06:08and address the matter at hand.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11We are playing Bonkers, Bernard,

0:06:11 > 0:06:14and I asked Clive for a score on a scale of one to ten

0:06:14 > 0:06:16on how much fun he was having,

0:06:16 > 0:06:19with ten high, because ten out of ten is good.

0:06:19 > 0:06:22One should be high, because one is first.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25Yes. Lady Gaga wouldn't want a number ten, would she?

0:06:25 > 0:06:27That woman's disgusting.

0:06:27 > 0:06:28Leaping about in a G-string.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31I bet she wishes she had two vaginas.

0:06:32 > 0:06:36Twice as many to shove in peoples' faces.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39I worship her. I'm one of her Little Monsters.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42Because of her, I've given myself permission to love myself.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45Well, I hope you'll be very happy together, Clive,

0:06:45 > 0:06:48but Lady Gaga is not germane.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50Yes, that's right. She's American.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Germane...

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Bernard. Not German.

0:06:55 > 0:06:59As in relevant and, in this case, relevant to my scale,

0:06:59 > 0:07:01on which ten is high.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04- One should be high. - Malika, it's just plain logic!

0:07:04 > 0:07:07Oh, is it? Well, tell me this then, Gerald.

0:07:07 > 0:07:11Year after year, when you and Valerie came first in the dance-off

0:07:11 > 0:07:12at the work's Ballroom Night,

0:07:12 > 0:07:14did you wish you'd come tenth?

0:07:14 > 0:07:17I expect you and the Mayor will win this year's dance-off, Malika,

0:07:17 > 0:07:20now that Gerald and Valerie have divor...

0:07:20 > 0:07:21won't be competing.

0:07:21 > 0:07:23That was the first thing I thought when she dumped him.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27Can we please leave my ex-wife out of this? Team!

0:07:27 > 0:07:32On a scale of one to ten, with ten high because it's my scale,

0:07:32 > 0:07:35how much fun were you having playing Bonkers?

0:07:37 > 0:07:38BOTH: One.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43You've overstepped the mark this time, Mr Wright.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46The mark overstepped have you.

0:07:46 > 0:07:49A stock laughing of us have you made!

0:07:49 > 0:07:52Proof want I, Mr Wright!

0:07:52 > 0:07:54Proof that conker playing dangerous is.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Or I will see you sacked, Mr Wright.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59Sacked, Mr Wright, will I see you!

0:07:59 > 0:08:02That is all and all, I might add, is that.

0:08:05 > 0:08:06Mrs Maha.

0:08:07 > 0:08:11Dance rehearsal? This evening, Mrs Maha?

0:08:11 > 0:08:14Only five weeks left till the big Ballroom Night.

0:08:14 > 0:08:18Till the big Ballroom Night five weeks only.

0:08:18 > 0:08:23- I'll be there, Mr Mayor. - Then, cha-cha-cha, Mrs Maha.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25Mrs Maha...

0:08:25 > 0:08:26Cha-cha-cha.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38So you're really not going to cook Mum your quiche?

0:08:38 > 0:08:39No, Sue, I'm not.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Blimey. How long have we been standing here?

0:08:44 > 0:08:45Shut up about the queue, Dad!

0:08:45 > 0:08:47This is what drove Mum away.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49You're just so stressy all the time.

0:08:49 > 0:08:53I've got frozen goods, Susan, I'm entitled to be stressy.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55My Mini Magnums are melting.

0:08:55 > 0:09:00Now! That silly woman's Chunky Kit Kat won't scan.

0:09:00 > 0:09:01Dad, it doesn't matter.

0:09:01 > 0:09:06It does matter, Susan! This is the nightmare checkout scenario.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Frozen item meets faulty barcode.

0:09:09 > 0:09:13It's a supermarket perfect storm.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15- It'll be fine.- Will it?

0:09:15 > 0:09:16I once got stuck behind a woman

0:09:16 > 0:09:18with a tin of cat food that wouldn't beep.

0:09:18 > 0:09:19By the time I got to the till,

0:09:19 > 0:09:22my oven chips had turned into mashed potato.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Well, it's your own fault, the other queue was shorter,

0:09:25 > 0:09:27but you insisted on joining this one.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31Because, Susan, I know that woman on the other till.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33She's got form.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35What do you mean "she's got form"?

0:09:35 > 0:09:36She's a bread crusher.

0:09:38 > 0:09:41Grips your granary like she's throttling a cat

0:09:41 > 0:09:44and you can never get them back into shape.

0:09:44 > 0:09:49Every slice comes out looking like Marilyn Monroe.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51Dude, I am so hearing you.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54She crushed my Vogel loaf.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57And the Vogel loaf is a very dense bake.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59Hello? Sunflower and pumpkin seed.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02Oh, my God, it's like a high-fibre breeze block.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05But that bitch bruised it like it was a bap.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07I'm worried about you, Vic.

0:10:07 > 0:10:09I think you're going over to the dark side.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12- Chantelle! - Cheryl!- You shoppin' here?

0:10:12 > 0:10:14- Yeah!- No!- Yeah!

0:10:14 > 0:10:16- I'm shoppin' here!- No! - Yeah!- Random!- I know!

0:10:16 > 0:10:19- I'm like, "Oh, my God." - I'm like, "Oh, my God."

0:10:19 > 0:10:22- I've got to tweet this. - I've got to tweet this.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24Excuse me, but this is a queue.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27Oh my God, it's him. It's the nutter from the shop.

0:10:27 > 0:10:28I am not a nutter, Miss.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31I am just somebody who knows right from wrong.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33You pushed in then and you're pushing in now.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35She never pushed in. I saved her a place.

0:10:35 > 0:10:39Don't give me that, love! You said it was random.

0:10:39 > 0:10:40You tweeted it.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43She's my mate. Everyone knows you can join a mate in the queue.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45Only if the mate is keeping a place.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47Not if it's random.

0:10:47 > 0:10:48And you just said it was random,

0:10:48 > 0:10:51so hop it or I'll get a store detective.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58Hash tag...awkward.

0:10:58 > 0:11:00I've had this since I was little.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03We were at Alton Towers once and he did the same thing to Mum.

0:11:03 > 0:11:04His own wife.

0:11:04 > 0:11:08Gerald. That is psycho. Dot, dot, dot, stunned face.

0:11:08 > 0:11:12But I hadn't been saving her a place.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15She'd said she didn't want to go on the Death Dumper.

0:11:17 > 0:11:21Do you think I liked sleeping on the couch for three weeks?

0:11:24 > 0:11:27Our challenge, Team Health and Safety,

0:11:27 > 0:11:32is to provide the Mayor with proof that playing conkers is dangerous.

0:11:32 > 0:11:34The question is, how?

0:11:34 > 0:11:37Well, don't we just whack 'em till someone gets a bit in their eye?

0:11:37 > 0:11:39But we won't get a bit in the eye, Malika,

0:11:39 > 0:11:41Because we'll be wearing goggles

0:11:41 > 0:11:44in order to avoid getting a bit in the eye.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46But if we wear goggles to avoid getting a bit in the eye,

0:11:46 > 0:11:49how do we get a bit in the eye to prove that we need goggles

0:11:49 > 0:11:51to avoid getting a bit in the eye?

0:11:51 > 0:11:53I've gone all dizzy.

0:11:53 > 0:11:58We approach the challenge scientifically,

0:11:58 > 0:12:03establishing a General Recreational Environment Aptitude Test.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06Acronimically...

0:12:06 > 0:12:10G-R-E-A-T,

0:12:10 > 0:12:15by means of a Ballistic Information Graph,

0:12:15 > 0:12:18B-I-G...

0:12:20 > 0:12:25..to record Conker Optimum Collision Knowledge.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30C-O-C-K.

0:12:34 > 0:12:38So, Clive, speak to me about my Great Big Cock.

0:12:41 > 0:12:42Well, Gerald...

0:12:44 > 0:12:46..we're still on conkers, are we?

0:12:46 > 0:12:48What else, Clive?

0:12:48 > 0:12:51Well, I've got this lovely box of Lindidindidors...

0:12:51 > 0:12:52Yes...

0:12:52 > 0:12:55And they're just like little chocolate conkers, really.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58Same size, same shape.

0:12:59 > 0:13:04So I was thinking, if we played with chocolates instead of conkers,

0:13:04 > 0:13:07when we got a bit in the eye, it would just melt away.

0:13:10 > 0:13:13You've come up with that idea so you can eat chocolates at work,

0:13:13 > 0:13:14haven't you, Clive?

0:13:14 > 0:13:16I saw it as a win-win situation.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Here's an idea, Gerald. Work with me.

0:13:20 > 0:13:22Run it up your pole.

0:13:23 > 0:13:26We need crash test dummies.

0:13:26 > 0:13:30Put some glue on the eyes, see if any bits stick to them. Job done.

0:13:30 > 0:13:34Bernard, that is blue-sky thinking, well done,

0:13:34 > 0:13:36but we don't have the budget for dummies.

0:13:36 > 0:13:41Remember we hired one to test that seesaw in Clement Attlee Park?

0:13:41 > 0:13:45You sat on the other end, the dummy ended up in the duck pond.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47It cost us 35,000 quid.

0:13:49 > 0:13:53The shop I get my ballroom dresses made's got loads of old mannequins.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55I bet we could rent a few off her for 20 quid.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58Malika, that is inspired!

0:13:58 > 0:14:02You are really thinking outside your box.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06I beg your pardon!

0:14:10 > 0:14:12You know Gary?

0:14:12 > 0:14:14I took him on to help me with the heating at the care home.

0:14:14 > 0:14:16Don't really follow your stuff in detail, babes.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18I know it involves pipes.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21He only plumbed the immersion into the grey water, didn't he?

0:14:21 > 0:14:24Them old ladies have been flushing their toilets with hot water.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28What a brilliant idea. Warm splash back.

0:14:28 > 0:14:31I'm going to have to sack him now, which is just horrible.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33Leadership is hard.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35I think she's totes amaze to have a business at all.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38I mean, I'm just crap. I'm like a kept babe.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40Don't say that, Vic.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43It's just more people need plumbers than DJs.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45Which is so wrong, I think.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48You'll get there, Victoria. You just need a start, that's all.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50Keeping the faith, big guy!

0:14:50 > 0:14:51Perseverance, Victoria,

0:14:51 > 0:14:55a quality your generation would do well to consider.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58And here is a case in point.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00As you know, I have been Googling

0:15:00 > 0:15:04"How to empty an overstuffed swing bin"

0:15:04 > 0:15:06and I have got another result.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09Dad, I still want to talk about Mum....

0:15:10 > 0:15:13Now, the trick, apparently,

0:15:13 > 0:15:17is to knot the bag,

0:15:17 > 0:15:24then, up end the entire bin

0:15:24 > 0:15:27and shake it up and down....

0:15:29 > 0:15:32Oh, my God! Gerald's humping the bin again.

0:15:32 > 0:15:37I am not humping it, Victoria, I am emptying it...

0:15:39 > 0:15:41The bin liner's split.

0:15:41 > 0:15:43But it is out.

0:15:43 > 0:15:47Now, all we have to do is contain the spillage.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50Dad, you haven't forgotten about Mum and Kyle coming round tomorrow?

0:15:50 > 0:15:53No, Susan. I will be there.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55With your quiche.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57No, Sue. Not with my quiche.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00Are these things designed so you can't get into them?

0:16:00 > 0:16:02I think you're supposed to blow on them.

0:16:02 > 0:16:07Good idea, Victoria. The moisture will enhance the viscosity.

0:16:11 > 0:16:16They can detect trace radiation on the fringes of space

0:16:16 > 0:16:19confirming the origins of the universe,

0:16:19 > 0:16:22but they cannot design a bin liner you can get into!

0:16:22 > 0:16:24Do not get me started.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30It would be a favour to me, Dad!

0:16:30 > 0:16:33I am not making my famous quiche for Valerie's boyfriend.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35It's bad enough I've got to have him in me house.

0:16:35 > 0:16:39Rejecting Kyle isn't going to bring Mum back because she's gone!

0:16:39 > 0:16:42But she's still my mum and we're still a family

0:16:42 > 0:16:45and if you care about me at all, you'll...

0:16:45 > 0:16:46Oh, Susan...

0:16:46 > 0:16:49Well done, Gerald. Really sensitive.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52I know you miss her, Dad, but you've got to get through this.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55We've got to get through this. You, me and Mum.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57You think I'm being selfish, don't you?

0:16:57 > 0:16:59Doh!

0:16:59 > 0:17:04No, you're right. Of course, you're right. Valerie has started a new life.

0:17:04 > 0:17:05I've lost her.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07Time to accept it.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09I'm sorry, Dad.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12No, no, don't be sorry, it's me that should be sorry.

0:17:12 > 0:17:16So I'm in town tomorrow with me team,

0:17:16 > 0:17:20I shall pick up a salami and a couple of onions.

0:17:20 > 0:17:22That is so a beautiful gesture.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24Thanks, Dad.

0:17:26 > 0:17:29You were trying to open the closed end.

0:17:31 > 0:17:35CHUCKLING

0:17:35 > 0:17:38Astonishing what people seem to find amusing, isn't it, Clive?

0:17:48 > 0:17:51We need to manhandle Malika's mannequins

0:17:51 > 0:17:53into conker observation mode.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55They got a bit messed up in the service lift.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57This one's nearly doubled up, Gerald.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59Well, put it on the table, Clive,

0:17:59 > 0:18:01get between its legs and push its chest.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04- Right.- This one's bent over, I can't straighten it.

0:18:04 > 0:18:08- Sit across its lap, Malika, and grab its shoulders.- OK.

0:18:08 > 0:18:09The head on this one is twisted.

0:18:09 > 0:18:13Right, I'll pull it from the front, you push from the back.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22Mr Wright, what you doin'?!

0:18:22 > 0:18:26Crucial Conker Impact Testing, Mrs Johnson. Isn't it obvious?

0:18:26 > 0:18:30You're a filthy man, Mr Wright.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Nearly, nearly there.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37I've got news.

0:18:37 > 0:18:41Kyle and I have been talking about a big trip to Australia.

0:18:41 > 0:18:45- Australia?- Well, it's just a bit grim here, yeah? And dirty.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48I mean, hasn't anyone in the UK got a bloody broom?

0:18:48 > 0:18:50You blokes used to run the world,

0:18:50 > 0:18:52now it's almost like you've given up.

0:18:52 > 0:18:55Pulled stumps and gone home.

0:18:55 > 0:18:58Kyle says I'd look lovely on Bondi in a bikini.

0:18:58 > 0:19:01Of course you will, Mum, but Australia?

0:19:01 > 0:19:02It's such a long way.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05You see! That's the Pommie problem right there.

0:19:05 > 0:19:08"Ooh, big step. Scary. Can't do that, we're Poms."

0:19:08 > 0:19:11"Don't do scary." Come on, guys!

0:19:11 > 0:19:13Get over yourselves.

0:19:13 > 0:19:14Kyle's been helping me look at the best way

0:19:14 > 0:19:17to invest my divorce settlement, Sue.

0:19:17 > 0:19:20And your degree in economics came from which fitness centre and juice bar?

0:19:20 > 0:19:22It's all good, Sue.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24I've trained some of the richest guys in Brissie.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26I'm talking major CEOs.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29I unblocked a dentist's dishwasher yesterday,

0:19:29 > 0:19:31don't mean I could do you a filling.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33Boom! Your face.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35Hey, hey! Hostile?

0:19:35 > 0:19:37Yeah? Are we doing that?

0:19:37 > 0:19:39Are we going there? We so don't need to go there.

0:19:39 > 0:19:43Da-da! Here it is!

0:19:43 > 0:19:47Dad's famous onion and salami quiche. For you, Valerie.

0:19:47 > 0:19:51And for Kyle. With love.

0:19:51 > 0:19:54Up to you, babes. But...white flour, yeah?

0:19:54 > 0:19:56Starch? Hello?

0:19:56 > 0:19:59What you're looking at here is a fat arse.

0:20:04 > 0:20:08Well, it's a sort of closure, I suppose, Sue.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11I think I get it, she's gone for good.

0:20:11 > 0:20:12Happy now?

0:20:12 > 0:20:16Happy? Are you potty? I'm worried sick.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19Mum's being played. This bloke's planning to rip her off.

0:20:19 > 0:20:23Safe, you know? I'm know some bredren gon' mess him up, yeah.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26You wan me call mah soldiers? Shank 'im good?

0:20:26 > 0:20:27Cos a right bangalang!

0:20:27 > 0:20:29This is really serious.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31Mum's making a fool of herself.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33We've got to stage an intervention.

0:20:33 > 0:20:35Dad, I want you to talk to her.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37- Me?- It's your fault she's with him.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39My fault!

0:20:39 > 0:20:42She's rebounded, flung herself at the complete opposite type to you.

0:20:42 > 0:20:43Handsome, strong...

0:20:43 > 0:20:46Confident, laid back...

0:20:46 > 0:20:48Dangerous, sexy.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50I am still here, you know.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53No wonder her head's been turned.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55You have to help her, Dad.

0:20:55 > 0:20:57Take a leaf out of Kyle's book.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59I am not waxing me scrotum!

0:21:01 > 0:21:04I mean loosen up a bit. This is important.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06If I can persuade Mum to talk to you,

0:21:06 > 0:21:09will you try and get her to see sense about her money?

0:21:09 > 0:21:12Yes, well, of course. I'll try.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15You think it would help if I loosen up a bit? I can do that.

0:21:15 > 0:21:19Yeah, right. Except, actually, er...no, you can't.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22I can, Victoria. I can loosen up.

0:21:23 > 0:21:27And for the final time, when you finish stirring your tea,

0:21:27 > 0:21:29will you not put the wet spoon

0:21:29 > 0:21:30back in the sugar bowl?!

0:21:37 > 0:21:39Any bits stuck to the glue?

0:21:39 > 0:21:41I'm afraid not, Gerald.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43It's no good, Team Health and Safety.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45We're going to have to concede defeat.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48Listen, Gerald, just a thought. Leave it with you.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50We could just cheat.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52Cheat, Bernard?

0:21:52 > 0:21:53Whoops! Incoming.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55Ooh, kiddie cops a sixer.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57Look out. Another one!

0:21:57 > 0:21:59Oh...double whammy. Nasty.

0:21:59 > 0:22:01Conker goggles all round.

0:22:01 > 0:22:04No, Bernard. That is not the way I roll.

0:22:04 > 0:22:07Although it is self evident

0:22:07 > 0:22:12that the shattering of hardened nuggets of organic material

0:22:12 > 0:22:17in the vicinity of kiddies' faces is dangerous,

0:22:17 > 0:22:23we can't prove it and I will not falsify the evidence.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28All we're saying is, don't rush, Mum.

0:22:28 > 0:22:30Don't rush! Don't have fun!

0:22:30 > 0:22:32Don't grab a chance to enjoy life?

0:22:32 > 0:22:34Is that what you're saying, Sue?

0:22:34 > 0:22:36I'm 43!

0:22:36 > 0:22:39It's about time I did some bloody rushing.

0:22:39 > 0:22:43Please, talk to Dad. Dad's sensible with money.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Oh, your Dad's sensible all right. He's sensible about everything!

0:22:46 > 0:22:50Follow the rules, Valerie, there's a right way and a wrong way!

0:22:50 > 0:22:52Well, there is when it comes to your savings.

0:22:52 > 0:22:55If only he could have loosened up a little bit. We might...

0:22:55 > 0:22:56Still be together?

0:22:56 > 0:23:00Oh, I don't know, maybe. We were happy, you know.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02For a long time.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05He just ground me down.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08He has loosened up, Mum, or at least he's trying.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11Your dad? I'll believe that when I see it.

0:23:11 > 0:23:12Believe it, Val.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14Last night I put a wet spoon in the sugar bowl

0:23:14 > 0:23:17and he was over it...

0:23:17 > 0:23:18in like, ten minutes.

0:23:18 > 0:23:22See! Please come round and talk to him, Mum.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24He'll make a fresh quiche.

0:23:24 > 0:23:28Oh, well... I wouldn't mind a bit of that quiche.

0:23:28 > 0:23:31He's got lovely pastry fingers, your father.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33I do miss him, you know.

0:23:33 > 0:23:37It's just he ground me down.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42Well, Mr Wright? Mr Wright, well?

0:23:42 > 0:23:44Progress any?

0:23:44 > 0:23:47To wit conkers. Shattered. Shards in eye thereof?

0:23:47 > 0:23:49Evidence pertaining?

0:23:49 > 0:23:53Not as such, Mr Mayor. It's a difficult procedure.

0:23:53 > 0:23:55It's an up-balls total, Mr Wright.

0:23:55 > 0:24:00Well, I would say more of a hiatus temporary than an up-balls total.

0:24:00 > 0:24:05You've failed, Mr Wright. Failed have you. Conkers not dangerous are.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07Full stop and stop full.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Therefore, the honourable only thing for you to do

0:24:09 > 0:24:12is resign before I you sack.

0:24:12 > 0:24:14In that case, I....

0:24:14 > 0:24:15Resignation accepted, Mr Wright.

0:24:15 > 0:24:17Can I have his job, then?

0:24:18 > 0:24:20Nothing personal, Gerald,

0:24:20 > 0:24:23but we don't want it going to some time server from public toilets.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25No, quite right, Malika.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28I'd like to hand the torch on to one of our own.

0:24:28 > 0:24:31Well, Mrs Maha,

0:24:31 > 0:24:35as long as assured I can be that the duties extra impact

0:24:35 > 0:24:39not on your preparations for the big Ballroom Night, then....

0:24:39 > 0:24:42Cha-cha-cha, Mrs Maha.

0:24:42 > 0:24:43Mrs Maha...

0:24:43 > 0:24:44Cha-cha-cha.

0:24:44 > 0:24:48Oooh, Ferrarer Lindidindidindindors!

0:24:51 > 0:24:52My favourite!

0:24:56 > 0:24:57He's choking!

0:24:58 > 0:25:01Heimlich manoeuvre, Team Health and Safety!

0:25:05 > 0:25:08You saved my life, Mr Wright.

0:25:08 > 0:25:11Life my saved you.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14Yes, Mr Mayor!

0:25:14 > 0:25:19And from what did I you save, ask I may?

0:25:21 > 0:25:23A conker dangerous, Mr Wright.

0:25:25 > 0:25:28A highly conker dangerous.

0:25:32 > 0:25:35Mature cheddar, French butter,

0:25:35 > 0:25:39fresh herbs, new jar of Dijon.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42This is going to be the finest quiche I've ever made.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45And whatever you do, don't go banging on.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47If she puts a wet spoon in the sugar, forgive her.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50If she doesn't screw the lid back on top of the Branston, ignore it.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53If she tears off all of her clothes and throws them on the floor,

0:25:53 > 0:25:55don't make her pick them up and fold them and put them in a drawer.

0:25:55 > 0:25:57Blimey.

0:25:57 > 0:26:00If she smears honey on her gazungas, don't wipe it off, lick it off.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02Vic, shut up.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04This isn't about getting Mum and Dad back together.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06It's an intervention.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08The important thing is to get her away from Kyle.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10Oh, look, Chell. There's the nutter.

0:26:10 > 0:26:13All right if we stand here, nutter?

0:26:13 > 0:26:15We're not breaking any rules?

0:26:15 > 0:26:17Hello, Gerald? Girls.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20Hello, Valerie, what a surprise!

0:26:20 > 0:26:22We were just doing a bit of shopping.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24Oh, I just popped in to get a bottle of wine.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27I thought I'd bring it round tonight to go with that quiche.

0:26:27 > 0:26:29Great minds, eh?

0:26:29 > 0:26:32Ooh. I shall have to be careful. I'll get tiddly.

0:26:32 > 0:26:34Well, promises, promises!

0:26:34 > 0:26:36Oh, my God! Wrinkly flirting. So sweet.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38Don't be so fresh!

0:26:38 > 0:26:41I'm just coming around to talk about my finances.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44Excuse me, but you're not letting her in, are you?

0:26:44 > 0:26:45Of course he's letting me in.

0:26:45 > 0:26:48Everyone knows you can join a friend in a queue.

0:26:48 > 0:26:51Only if the friend's keeping a place. Ain't that right, nutter?

0:26:51 > 0:26:53And you just said it was a surprise.

0:26:53 > 0:26:54So send her to the back.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58Well, Gerald?

0:26:58 > 0:27:00Say no, Dad!

0:27:00 > 0:27:03Imagine honey all over her gazungas!

0:27:03 > 0:27:06- I beg your pardon?- I'm sorry, Val,

0:27:06 > 0:27:09but there's a right way and a wrong way.

0:27:09 > 0:27:14And this was a random encounter, not a pre-arranged liaison...

0:27:16 > 0:27:17You do understand...

0:27:17 > 0:27:19Oh, I understand all right!

0:27:19 > 0:27:23This is Alton Towers all over again, isn't it?

0:27:23 > 0:27:26I will never forget the humiliation,

0:27:26 > 0:27:28winding my way up that bloody queue

0:27:28 > 0:27:31with all those snotty kids laughing at me.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34I'd be delighted to come to the back with you, Val.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36Oh, Gerald!

0:27:36 > 0:27:39I'm sorry, Sue, but this was never going to work.

0:27:39 > 0:27:43Dad is Dad. He will always be Dad.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45It took me 20 years to work that out.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47I can't believe I almost forgot it for a second.

0:27:47 > 0:27:51If you want me, I will be at home with Kyle

0:27:51 > 0:27:54watching Crocodile Dundee!

0:27:57 > 0:28:00It looks like I blew it, eh?

0:28:00 > 0:28:01You so did.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06All I have left it seems is my work.

0:28:06 > 0:28:09Thank goodness I still have my conkers.
