Just north of the city centre is a little known Manchester suburb called Harpurhey. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:06 | |
This programme contains strong language. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:09 | |
They say the area's just full of rough families. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:11 | |
I don't think it's such a bad place. | 0:00:11 | 0:00:13 | |
Ten years ago, a report called it the most deprived area in England. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:17 | |
-It's a simple question I asked. -Yeah, I'm trying to answer it. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
Things have got a bit better but life round here is still no bed of roses. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:25 | |
There's a local saying, "They'd steal the shit out of your arse." | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
Not cos they want it, just so you haven't got it. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
Half the people have no qualifications. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
You! | 0:00:33 | 0:00:34 | |
And antisocial behaviour is rife. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
-Are you the neighbour from hell? -Probably, yeah. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
People round here might not be the poshest but they're not lacking in spirit. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:44 | |
We call ourselves the dysfunctionals. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
They're just trying to get on with life. Be themselves. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:49 | |
I ain't driving the van like this. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
And follow their dreams. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
I'm a different person when I'm acting. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
'Tis true that a good play needs no epilogue. WHISTLES | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
For one long summer, the young people of Harpurhey let us into their secret world. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
# I have a penis! I shake it in the morning # | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
-Sharing the good times. -Megan Fox eat your heart out. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
-And the bad. -Hello! Go and find another street to go and terrorise. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:15 | |
This is how it really feels growing up the hard way. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
You might think you know people like us | 0:01:18 | 0:01:20 | |
but you don't know nothing yet! | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
This week, we meet Amber. Her parents run the launderette | 0:01:31 | 0:01:35 | |
but she's determined to leave home to go to drama school. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
Bid me farewell. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
SHE WHISTLES | 0:01:40 | 0:01:41 | |
We meet Dale, a budding DJ and entrepreneur | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
happily living with his mum. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
Just a quick update to let all listeners know | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
me nana is on the way to bingo, so keep your fingers crossed. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
But if he makes it big, will he stay or go? | 0:01:51 | 0:01:55 | |
-Come to nana now. -And new dad Ryan who's hoping rap could be | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
a ticket to a better life away from his estate. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
# If your mum went on her back, the weight of them tits will defo make her lungs collapse. # | 0:02:01 | 0:02:05 | |
And finally, single mum Nicola, | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
who's considering leaving for a quieter life away from her family. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:12 | |
Why would I cry over you? I should've moved away. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
-That's OK. Bye-bye. -That's what I should've done. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
On the high street out of Harpurhey is the Wishy Washy launderette, | 0:02:21 | 0:02:26 | |
run by Amber's family, the Wakefields. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
11-year-old sister Maddy, stepdad Paul and mum Karen. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:33 | |
Do you know what? You get some really weird people in the launderette. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:38 | |
The stuff people have done. They've come in, stripped off fully naked, | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
put the clothes they're wearing in the washing machine, dried them, put them back on and gone. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:47 | |
I never ever met so many weirdoes until we got this place. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:51 | |
Honestly, you would not believe there's so much stuff can happen on Moston Lane. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:55 | |
And here's a lady now who's the culprit of the day. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:59 | |
-Her? -Yeah. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
She's doing her washing and decides... | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
Watch this, find out for yourselves | 0:03:03 | 0:03:07 | |
I thought at first she was bending over, looking out of the door. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
But then I realised she had me bin, me bin underneath her. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
Weeing in our bin, honestly. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
Third person we've caught weeing in the shop. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
Let's go to Wishy Washy, do me washing and have a pee. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
I don't know where she got tissue paper but she wipes herself. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
-Look. She wipes her bum, there. -A number two, she took a shit? | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
Huh! That's shocked me even more, you shouldn't have said that. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:34 | |
-You said it was heavy, didn't you? -It was heavy. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
Then has the cheek to wipe her hands. I could write a book about this shop. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:43 | |
After many years hanging out at the launderette, | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
Amber's starting to realise that to fulfil her dreams she may have to leave Wishy Washy behind. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:53 | |
I do not want this business, it's so boring. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:57 | |
I want bigger things than that. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
To own a little shop on Moston Lane, it's not me. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:01 | |
# Ooh ooh-ooh ooh! | 0:04:01 | 0:04:03 | |
# Rock my world into the sunlight | 0:04:03 | 0:04:07 | |
# Make this dream the best I've ever known... # | 0:04:07 | 0:04:11 | |
A couple of miles south of the launderette, | 0:04:11 | 0:04:14 | |
19-year-old Nicola is at her mum Kathleen's house. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
Do what you want, I'm not arsed! | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
Nicola's a single parent to one-year-old Crystal. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
Tonight, her mum is supposed to be babysitting. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
You sent a book to my house, right? | 0:04:25 | 0:04:27 | |
We can't read or write, we don't know where to send it to, yeah. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:31 | |
It's going in the bin, do you what you want. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:33 | |
Me mum's got a personality where she changes. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:36 | |
She's not a very nice person to get along with, no. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:41 | |
-Nicola! -What? -You left a parcel behind. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:45 | |
-Get her ready for bed and give her food. -She don't go to bed at this time. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
Make sure she's got a clean nappy and put her in bed. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
Why should you get out early and leave the child to us? We got things to do. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:56 | |
-Have you now? -Yeah, we do. -And what's that? | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
Not sitting here all night babysitting. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:01 | |
"I'm not babysitting." | 0:05:01 | 0:05:02 | |
Get her ready, get her jammies on, get her in bed, | 0:05:02 | 0:05:05 | |
settle her down and I'll babysit. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:08 | |
-That's too much. -What do you mean too much? | 0:05:08 | 0:05:10 | |
-That's called me babysitting until I go out. -You should wear condoms then. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:14 | |
She's a big responsibility, the next time you'll wear a condom. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:18 | |
I didn't mean to get pregnant one bit. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:22 | |
I done three years in college before I got pregnant. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
And then had the baby. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
And then life just went crashing down. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:30 | |
They always try and put me in the mood before I go out and it's gone. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:38 | |
What you crying for? Cos you can't get your own way? | 0:05:38 | 0:05:41 | |
Why would I cry over you? I should've moved away. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:43 | |
-OK, then, bye-bye. -That's what I should've done. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
You pull my life down, that's what you do. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:49 | |
-We put your life down? You put your own life down. -You fucking do. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
When I found out I was pregnant, | 0:05:52 | 0:05:54 | |
me mum was arguing like all the time, like we always do. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:57 | |
I was like, "I'll get rid of it." | 0:05:57 | 0:06:00 | |
And me mum said, "If you have an abortion, I'll disown you." | 0:06:00 | 0:06:04 | |
-She gets all angry, Nicola. -Cos I've got people taking the piss. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:16 | |
We said we'll babysit for you, simple as, OK, right? | 0:06:16 | 0:06:20 | |
She doesn't want to be babysit by you. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:24 | |
If it be true that a good wine needs no bush, | 0:06:31 | 0:06:35 | |
'tis true that a good play... | 0:06:35 | 0:06:37 | |
17-year-old Amber plans to leave Manchester this summer | 0:06:37 | 0:06:40 | |
and is going for drama school auditions in London. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:44 | |
-Say it louder. -I can't do it louder. -Why not? -Cos I'm not. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:47 | |
-Just a bit louder. -I'm not doing it louder. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:49 | |
-Stop pulling your fingers up. -Me tights are falling down. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
Pull them up before you do it. Right, go on. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
She wants make me to go loud in this place. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:57 | |
You're not doing bad. You got good projection. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:00 | |
-Just do it. -You're being stupid now. -I'm not being stupid. Just do it. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:04 | |
I am not furnished as a beggar, therefore to beg will not become me, | 0:07:04 | 0:07:09 | |
my way is to conjure you, and I'll begin with the women. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:15 | |
It's like I'm not good at anything else. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:18 | |
I can be like a different person when I'm acting. | 0:07:18 | 0:07:20 | |
I kind of like the bossy more evil, I don't know, | 0:07:20 | 0:07:23 | |
evil stepmother role sort of thing. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:26 | |
Cos that's the kind of person I am. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:28 | |
..a good epilogue. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:30 | |
I've always had visions, I can see myself, I don't know why, | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |
round a table as if we're at, like, the Oscars getting an award. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:39 | |
It's something that's always been in me head, as if it's going to happen. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:43 | |
Or maybe it happened in a past life. I don't know. But I can see it. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:46 | |
I've always thought that from being a child. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:49 | |
Will I, make curtsey, bid me farewell. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:53 | |
SHE WHISTLES | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
That was a bit... She's good, wasn't she? | 0:07:55 | 0:07:59 | |
Wow! There's not a lot of people, especially around Moston, | 0:07:59 | 0:08:02 | |
you name one person. I bet you can't find anybody who does Shakespeare. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:06 | |
-Going to be big one day. -Yeah. -Think it in your head. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:09 | |
-It's in. -19-year-old Dale dreams of being famous. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:21 | |
He's currently unemployed but has tried everything from TV to DJing. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:25 | |
And, when he's out with his mates, he loves to be centre of attention. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:29 | |
We'll start with how many people we've slept with, right? How many? | 0:08:29 | 0:08:33 | |
-Eight. -Eight. -23. -23. And 12. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:39 | |
I'm a good boy, I'll say six. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:41 | |
-He gets a lot of attention with the girls. -Yeah, I like to dance around. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:45 | |
-What's that? -Dancing around. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:47 | |
I've got friends who have done stupid things. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:52 | |
I've got friends who've gone to prison. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
I think, "I don't want to do that." What's the point? I want to get something in life. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:59 | |
I'm gonna be rich. I'll do anything to be rich. Not anything. I wouldn't kiss him or anything like that. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:04 | |
I absolutely love it round here. I've got family around me, friends around me. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:10 | |
That's everything I need. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:12 | |
# Da-da da-da-da da-da da-da da-da-da da-da da-da-da da-da. # | 0:09:12 | 0:09:18 | |
If I could live anywhere in the world it would be Harpurhey. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:22 | |
Ugh! | 0:09:22 | 0:09:23 | |
A lot of people make the money and then go but I'm staying at home. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:29 | |
Just a quick update to let all listeners know | 0:09:31 | 0:09:34 | |
me nana is on the way to bingo, so keep your fingers crossed and stay tuned in. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:38 | |
Dale's always got a scheme on the go. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
He's no stranger to self-promotion. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:42 | |
At the moment, he's presenting his own internet radio show, | 0:09:42 | 0:09:46 | |
broadcasting live from his mum's front room. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:49 | |
It's going good. Live on air now. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:51 | |
He set it up the other day, he got 73 listeners on his first night. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:58 | |
I was just saying that to keep them tuned in. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:00 | |
I think it was about 15, though, 20 listeners. It's a start. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:04 | |
I'm a follower, I'm a groupie. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:07 | |
I'm 100% behind Dale, whichever path he takes. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:11 | |
Don't get me wrong, he's got to leave home and all that lot. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:14 | |
But I'll cry me eyes out when he says, "I'm leaving." | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
I've always been proud of Dale, I always will be. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:20 | |
Just had a call in to the studio off Joanne Brogan. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:24 | |
She's tuned in, listening to Mix station, enjoying the show. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:28 | |
That is one of me mum's friends. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:30 | |
I've got nine listeners! Big news! Nine listeners, I've got. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:33 | |
-Nine listeners. -Dale the multimillionaire. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:38 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:10:38 | 0:10:39 | |
Wa-wa-wa! | 0:10:44 | 0:10:46 | |
# I can remember that when I was a little youth | 0:10:46 | 0:10:49 | |
# I wanted to fly around the world making a new life... # | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
Nicola and Crystal live in a one-bedroom council flat | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
on an estate just north of Harpurhey. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:57 | |
They survive on benefits. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
And, in the past, Nicola has occasionally shoplifted to supplement her income. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:05 | |
When you're in there, you get the sugar rush of going, | 0:11:05 | 0:11:09 | |
"I'm getting it, I'm getting it and I've got it." | 0:11:09 | 0:11:12 | |
And then when you get out the doors, you're thinking, | 0:11:12 | 0:11:15 | |
"What have I done?" And you think you just want get it out your bag and go, | 0:11:15 | 0:11:20 | |
"I've got this from your shop, take it." | 0:11:20 | 0:11:23 | |
But then you get out and you think it's just mad. | 0:11:23 | 0:11:27 | |
You just want to dance outside and go, "I've done it." | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
Previously, Nicola sold the goods she stole. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
But, occasionally, she kept some items for herself. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:37 | |
If I'm going to rob something, it would be a little daft thing in the house, like the candle. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:42 | |
And St Tropez make-up, which is really dear. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:45 | |
What else? My wallpaper and the carpet. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:51 | |
That lamp, which is broke now. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
That's it, yeah. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:58 | |
And the clock there. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
I'm not stealing from somebody, I'm stealing from the company. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |
This morning, the launderette was targeted by some light-fingered customers | 0:12:08 | 0:12:12 | |
on the look out for some new home decorations. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:15 | |
Just come in, picked up Maddy from school, and our pictures have gone. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:19 | |
They took John Travolta, Sid Vicious and Bono out of U2. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:24 | |
Look, gets his bag ready. Look at her laughing. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
You won't be laughing when you come in again and I show you the film. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:32 | |
-How dare they? -Even though it's nothing, sentimental value, nothing at all, | 0:12:32 | 0:12:38 | |
it just annoys me the way they think, "We're allowed to go in there and do that." | 0:12:38 | 0:12:43 | |
It's bad that, though. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:44 | |
It riles me up all this crime thing, proper riles me up. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
Gets me really mad, really. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
If I ran the country, my phrase would be "An eye for an eye." | 0:12:50 | 0:12:53 | |
Whatever anybody did, they'd have it done back to them. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:56 | |
I go shoplifting because I can't live on the social, like, with what I get. | 0:12:56 | 0:13:03 | |
Some people would say you should get a job and you should pay for that. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:07 | |
Yeah, um, well... You're right, I don't blame people thinking, | 0:13:07 | 0:13:12 | |
saying it's wrong to shoplift and you should get a job. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:17 | |
It's not a very nice thing to go shoplifting. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:21 | |
I'm not gonna be shoplifting all my life, definitely not. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:24 | |
Dale started another money-making enterprise. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:38 | |
This time, he's trying his hand at club promoting and he's putting on a night in town. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:42 | |
What you doing? You need to get ready. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:45 | |
It's a family affair. But, unfortunately for sister Abbie, it's over 18s only. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:50 | |
-Have you got ID, please? How old are you? -Six. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:54 | |
-Are you going to drink beer? -No. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
-Right, promise. -Promise. | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
I have a different idea every day. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
Ideas come in and out of my head daily. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:05 | |
One of them will work, trust me. | 0:14:05 | 0:14:07 | |
All right, come on down. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:13 | |
-Come on. -Dale's night is taking place at a mate's dad's pub in town. | 0:14:13 | 0:14:17 | |
Come on now. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
Make some noise. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:22 | |
Move a little faster. Come on. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:25 | |
TECHNO MUSIC PLAYING | 0:14:25 | 0:14:26 | |
Tonight, Dale's charging £5 a ticket. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
He's already spent cash on flyers and paying his mate Luke the DJ. | 0:14:31 | 0:14:36 | |
But his mum and auntie are the only paying customers so far. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:40 | |
Dale, do you know what? What an amazing guy. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
Er, like, he's dead passionate about everything he does, basically. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:48 | |
He spreads the word, he's gonna get the money, he's gonna get rich. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:52 | |
It's the saying, "Get rich or try dying." | 0:14:52 | 0:14:56 | |
We're packed. OK, ravers! | 0:14:56 | 0:15:01 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:15:01 | 0:15:02 | |
Yeah, we're packed. We're packed. | 0:15:02 | 0:15:06 | |
I just sort of hope that a few people come because, otherwise, | 0:15:06 | 0:15:10 | |
it's gonna be like this all night. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:12 | |
MUSIC: "Only Fools Rush In" by UB40 | 0:15:12 | 0:15:15 | |
He is just a Del Boy, to be honest. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |
He thinks money, he lives money, he sleeps money, he wakes up money. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:24 | |
He's a trier. God loves a trier. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:26 | |
Luckily for Dale, he's got some punters on the way, the Wakefields. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:34 | |
Amber's still waiting to hear if she's got a place at drama school. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:38 | |
She's making the most of what could be her last summer at home | 0:15:38 | 0:15:41 | |
and is taking her mum for a big night out. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:44 | |
Just shaving these big hairy mamas. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:47 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:15:47 | 0:15:49 | |
On me mum's face. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:52 | |
If you laugh one more time, I'll shave your tache. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:56 | |
Get off! Amber! I swear, if you've done that, | 0:15:56 | 0:15:59 | |
I'll grow hairs. If I've got a tache in the morning, you're dead. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:03 | |
I hate being in the house with them all. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:05 | |
Talking about fucking make-up, like. "Paul put me eyelashes on for me." | 0:16:05 | 0:16:09 | |
You know what I mean? It's fucking hanging. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:12 | |
-Defo raver tonight! -Weh! | 0:16:12 | 0:16:16 | |
We've had a few good nights out, yeah, we have. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
We got free tickets to go and see Britney Spears. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:22 | |
We just had the biggest laugh ever. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
Then was dead drunk by the time we got to see Britney Spears, which was good cos she's crap. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:29 | |
# I shake it in the morning | 0:16:29 | 0:16:33 | |
# I spray out in the night | 0:16:33 | 0:16:37 | |
# Yeah, I have a penis | 0:16:37 | 0:16:39 | |
# I shake it in the morning # Shake it | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
# And spray it out the night, woo-woo | 0:16:42 | 0:16:43 | |
# And spray it, and spray it, and spray it. # | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
Weh! | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
My mum was a right one when she was younger. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
She's probably just living her past. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:55 | |
But now, like, she never gets older, she still lives with the time. | 0:16:55 | 0:16:59 | |
She's always said to me, "Just cos I'm old doesn't mean | 0:16:59 | 0:17:02 | |
"you have to go and get a perm and wear the right things." | 0:17:02 | 0:17:05 | |
So she still dyes her hair blonde. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:07 | |
-Look, MILF or what? -Yes. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:11 | |
# Something's got a hold on me, yeah | 0:17:11 | 0:17:14 | |
# Oh, must be love | 0:17:14 | 0:17:15 | |
# Oh, something's got a hold on me... # | 0:17:15 | 0:17:17 | |
Amber's mum Karen has reservations about her eldest daughter leaving for drama school. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:24 | |
I'm dreading it when Amber leaves home, she's the rock of the house. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:27 | |
When me and Paul row, I can just mingle with Amber and we'll go out. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:32 | |
I don't want her to leave home. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:34 | |
It'll be strange, won't it? Me first born. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:37 | |
-# Oh! -Oh! -# Oh! -Oh! -Oh! | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
-# Oh! -# Oh! -Oh! | 0:17:40 | 0:17:43 | |
# Hey, yeah! | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
-# Oh, it must be love -# You know it must be love | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
# Let me tell you now... # | 0:17:48 | 0:17:50 | |
Hey! | 0:17:50 | 0:17:52 | |
I'm absolutely bladdered and I don't drink. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:57 | |
I only need a sniff of it, that's it, that's me gone. | 0:17:57 | 0:18:01 | |
Paul's out as well but he's got a face like a melted welly. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:04 | |
I've just told him, cheer up or ship out and go. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:09 | |
Cos I'm out to have a laugh. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:11 | |
I never have a laugh any more. I said ship out. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:15 | |
When I go back in there, he'll probably be snogging someone. | 0:18:15 | 0:18:18 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:18:18 | 0:18:21 | |
Fucking unbelievable, you should have heard the racket | 0:18:21 | 0:18:24 | |
and the shit they was coming out with. | 0:18:24 | 0:18:26 | |
Singing mad penis songs and all that. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:29 | |
Yeah. Then I got one girl going on about her periods | 0:18:29 | 0:18:32 | |
in the taxi on the way down here. "Fucking shut up, will you? | 0:18:32 | 0:18:36 | |
"I have a fucking wank every day but I'm not shouting about it, am I?" | 0:18:36 | 0:18:40 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:18:40 | 0:18:41 | |
A bit of bad news for everybody, it's last orders in the bar. Wow! | 0:18:41 | 0:18:45 | |
I'd like to thank everybody for turning up, yeah. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:48 | |
Despite eventually getting a big turnout, | 0:18:48 | 0:18:51 | |
the night has not been a financial success for Dale. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:55 | |
After paying for a few shots at the bar for everyone, he's just £6 up. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:59 | |
Thanks a lot. Cheers, everybody. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:02 | |
People have come, they've enjoyed it and they've come out. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:06 | |
Instead of going somewhere else, they've come to my night. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
So, yeah, I'm buzzing. I'm over the moon. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:11 | |
Get us to the hotel. Paul's on a promise. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:22 | |
I don't know how I would feel if I was to leave home. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:27 | |
I won't feel scared because I'm very independent. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:30 | |
But I'd feel scared cos I don't want to really leave me mum. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:34 | |
It'd be like losing a best friend. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:36 | |
Nicola comes from a large family of Irish travellers. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:56 | |
Despite regular arguments with her mum, she still visits the family home most days. | 0:19:56 | 0:20:01 | |
I worry about Nicky an awful lot. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:04 | |
Nicola didn't have an easy life. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
I mean, she was brought up by not her dad but by a stepdad, you know. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:12 | |
My real dad, he's in prison for murder. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:16 | |
He's done 19 years, I think. | 0:20:16 | 0:20:20 | |
He'll be out in two years. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
She's a single mum with a baby. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
She'll do the same thing what I've done. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:30 | |
Bring her kid up and make sure that she has a good life. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:34 | |
There's kids out there that hasn't got a mum or hasn't got a dad. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:38 | |
They've been put in care homes and not being looked after in care homes, you understand what I mean? | 0:20:38 | 0:20:44 | |
I made Nicola's choice when she was a baby, | 0:20:44 | 0:20:47 | |
to keep Nicola away from dangers. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:50 | |
Nicola has never met her real dad. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:53 | |
She sees her mum's ex Barry as her dad. | 0:20:53 | 0:20:56 | |
This is Barry Woodall, the bench man. | 0:20:56 | 0:20:59 | |
-He wanted to go into a rehab. -I am going in detox. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:04 | |
He wants... He needs help, serious help. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:07 | |
Me dad that's brought me up, he was on drugs until we was, like, 16. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:12 | |
And he got off it and he was drinking for two years. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:17 | |
I want a rest. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:20 | |
-He lives on the streets him, me dad. -He lives on a park bench. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:25 | |
-Cos these kicked me out years ago. -Ask Barry what he come home for? | 0:21:25 | 0:21:30 | |
Me Lucozade. | 0:21:30 | 0:21:33 | |
That tells you all. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:37 | |
-Here we go. -That says it all. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:39 | |
-And what? -And here's the weakest link. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:44 | |
When Dale's not dreaming up ideas to make millions, his hobby is boxing. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:57 | |
He's had two amateur fights so far. | 0:21:57 | 0:22:00 | |
MUSIC: "Down With The Trumpets" by Rizzle Sticks | 0:22:00 | 0:22:04 | |
On the walls, I've got pictures of me boxing. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
I've got a picture of my sister on there holding the gloves. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:14 | |
That's pretty cute, she was younger. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
Boxing's not a game. You have to learn the basics. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:20 | |
Then you have so much to learn, as I learnt from my first fight. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:23 | |
I just... I got beat up, I won but I had to have a fight, I didn't box. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:28 | |
Go on, Dale! | 0:22:28 | 0:22:30 | |
Dale's mum Lisa goes to all his fights and always films them. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:34 | |
The first fight, as a mum, I wanted to shout, "Throw the towel in." | 0:22:34 | 0:22:38 | |
All I could see was blood. I couldn't focus, you know. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:41 | |
I just wanted to get him out of the ring. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:43 | |
It's different on telly. It's someone else. You're not bothered. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:46 | |
But when it's your own kid in there, you don't know what'll happen, it's different. | 0:22:46 | 0:22:52 | |
Dale's got three weeks to get into shape for his next amateur fight. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:58 | |
I think that my career's not going the best so far. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:01 | |
But I'm still, like, 100% hungry and dedicated. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:06 | |
Two miles down the road from Dale's house is Strangeways Prison. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:16 | |
It looms large over Harpurhey and to some in the area it's a second home. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:20 | |
Strangeways is a fucking shite-hole, you can see it from our house. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:25 | |
I've been in there, er, I don't know, what, three times maybe. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:30 | |
It's a hovel, it's a shit-hole. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:32 | |
I didn't really know of it until I was about, like, 11 or something. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:37 | |
Paul got sent into Strangeways and we had to go and visit him, go through all that security stuff. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:42 | |
I hated visiting Paul in Strangeways. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:45 | |
We told Madison that he was working for the Queen. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:48 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:23:48 | 0:23:50 | |
Because I thought my dad was working for the Queen, | 0:23:50 | 0:23:53 | |
I thought it was a bit weird and suspicious why we had to get a dog | 0:23:53 | 0:23:59 | |
to come and sniff us, to check if, like, we had anything. | 0:23:59 | 0:24:02 | |
21-year-old Ryan has just completed a four-week sentence at Strangeways, | 0:24:04 | 0:24:09 | |
after breaking the terms of a restraining order taken out by his ex-girlfriend. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:14 | |
Um, I sent threats to kill her in a text and that was it. | 0:24:14 | 0:24:19 | |
To my ex. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:21 | |
It's not my first time. It's not good, I wouldn't go back. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:27 | |
But it's not as bad as everyone goes on about. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:30 | |
Half the people in Harpurhey have been in Strangeways, or know someone, | 0:24:30 | 0:24:33 | |
or they've got family members, or friends who have been in there. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:37 | |
It's the local jail, so it is where everyone goes around here, straight down the road to there. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:42 | |
Ryan lives with his parents to the south of Harpurhey. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:48 | |
Hello, darling. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:50 | |
He became a dad just under a year ago and, due to his prison sentence, | 0:24:50 | 0:24:54 | |
he's only seen his daughter Lilly twice in the past month. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:57 | |
Oh, hello. | 0:24:57 | 0:25:00 | |
His mum Karen brought her for visits. | 0:25:00 | 0:25:02 | |
No. | 0:25:02 | 0:25:05 | |
He's not going back again cos we're not taking her. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:09 | |
That was the last time, it was the last time. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:12 | |
Thank god, we hope. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:14 | |
Weren't it? | 0:25:14 | 0:25:16 | |
At the end of the day, what he does is what he does. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:19 | |
He's old enough to know. But I would never ever take her through that again, never. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:24 | |
It's horrible, it's degrading. | 0:25:24 | 0:25:27 | |
She's at the age where she won't remember. That's the reason I asked me mum to bring her. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:31 | |
That's not the point. She shouldn't be going through that. | 0:25:31 | 0:25:34 | |
I had to take her through that thing with her shoes and coat off, | 0:25:34 | 0:25:38 | |
stick her in a thing while they searched her. | 0:25:38 | 0:25:40 | |
No, I'm sorry, Ryan, but I wouldn't do it again. | 0:25:40 | 0:25:46 | |
We won't do it again, will we? | 0:25:48 | 0:25:50 | |
It's stupid. I was drunk. The beer that, like, took, over me, but... | 0:25:50 | 0:25:55 | |
Mm... People do things they regret. | 0:25:57 | 0:25:59 | |
Just needs to think before he drinks. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:01 | |
Enough's enough with him now. He goes out for a drink | 0:26:03 | 0:26:06 | |
and he gets in that much bleeding trouble, it's unbelievable. | 0:26:06 | 0:26:11 | |
But I'm not doing it no more. No. | 0:26:11 | 0:26:16 | |
Once it's done, I can't even sit and dwell on it, | 0:26:16 | 0:26:19 | |
or just try and put it behind me and learn from me mistakes | 0:26:19 | 0:26:22 | |
and not do it again this time. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:24 | |
But I can't help where I was born and where I'm raised and where I'm from. | 0:26:26 | 0:26:31 | |
Some of us are deprived, some of us are not. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:33 | |
For me, it's been tough, but it's made me who I am today. | 0:26:33 | 0:26:37 | |
Right, watch me floor, Dad. | 0:26:43 | 0:26:45 | |
Nicola's stepdad Barry has been sleeping rough. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:48 | |
But, tonight, Nicola's allowed him to stay at her flat. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:51 | |
-I'll pour it for you. -Slowly. | 0:26:51 | 0:26:55 | |
You're killing me, Dad. | 0:26:55 | 0:26:57 | |
There, right, go and sit in there and chill out. | 0:26:58 | 0:27:02 | |
I was going anyway. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:05 | |
Watch the baby. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:07 | |
Hello, my missus. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:16 | |
You need to get off that Lambrini. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:19 | |
What do you normally drink? | 0:27:22 | 0:27:25 | |
MUSIC: "Fast Car" by Tracy Chapman | 0:27:29 | 0:27:31 | |
Barry normally drinks on the streets | 0:27:36 | 0:27:39 | |
but he's been given an ASBO that stops him going into town. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:42 | |
I feel tight on him cos he's got nowhere else to go and he's me dad. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:51 | |
# I say his body's too young to look like this | 0:27:54 | 0:27:57 | |
# My mama went off and left him | 0:27:57 | 0:27:59 | |
# She wanted more from life than he could give | 0:27:59 | 0:28:01 | |
# I said somebody's got to take care of him | 0:28:01 | 0:28:04 | |
# So I quit school and that's what I did... # | 0:28:04 | 0:28:06 | |
It's OK, Dad. | 0:29:02 | 0:29:04 | |
-Yeah. -All right? | 0:29:04 | 0:29:06 | |
Yeah. | 0:29:06 | 0:29:08 | |
Wake up. | 0:29:20 | 0:29:22 | |
It's three weeks until Dale's fight, | 0:29:22 | 0:29:24 | |
and as well as a busy training schedule, | 0:29:24 | 0:29:26 | |
today he's also got a job interview. | 0:29:26 | 0:29:28 | |
Wake up. | 0:29:28 | 0:29:30 | |
Let's get ready for sparring, girls. | 0:29:30 | 0:29:32 | |
A mile up the road is the boxing gym. | 0:29:32 | 0:29:35 | |
Come on, Callum, make a name for yourself, our kid. | 0:29:35 | 0:29:38 | |
Dale's coach Tommy is expecting him for an important sparring session with the other lads at the gym. | 0:29:38 | 0:29:45 | |
I know he's had a few late nights. Change, Lyndon and Curtis. | 0:29:45 | 0:29:49 | |
I know everything. I get told a lot of things. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:52 | |
And that's why I just need to see for me self. | 0:29:52 | 0:29:54 | |
I'm absolutely fuming. | 0:29:54 | 0:29:57 | |
Lyndon, Billy, all the lads who are fighting, told them to come for some sparring. | 0:29:57 | 0:30:02 | |
Obviously, for Dale, you know, he's got a fight on. | 0:30:02 | 0:30:05 | |
He's probably been in bed all day. | 0:30:05 | 0:30:07 | |
He's trying to be a master of everything. | 0:30:07 | 0:30:09 | |
I know he done some kind of DJ night on Saturday. | 0:30:09 | 0:30:12 | |
So, obviously, he wasn't doing shadow boxing | 0:30:12 | 0:30:15 | |
while everyone was dancing or training. | 0:30:15 | 0:30:17 | |
So he would've been drinking. | 0:30:17 | 0:30:19 | |
Put it this way, he's got minimum one more chance. | 0:30:19 | 0:30:22 | |
He's got to come here maybe Monday and show me he's ready to fight. | 0:30:22 | 0:30:26 | |
And if not, you know, this fight's more off than it is on. | 0:30:26 | 0:30:30 | |
Hello, hello. | 0:30:37 | 0:30:40 | |
-Hello. -Keep her. | 0:30:42 | 0:30:44 | |
Ryan has access to his daughter Lilly two days a week. | 0:30:44 | 0:30:47 | |
Since coming out of prison, he's focused on being a good dad. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:51 | |
Oh, baba. And baba's good. All kisses. | 0:30:52 | 0:30:55 | |
Oh, kisses for the baba. | 0:30:55 | 0:30:57 | |
It's hard, it's hard work, but it pays off in the end. | 0:30:59 | 0:31:02 | |
Like, you gotta put your own life on hold, you know, | 0:31:02 | 0:31:06 | |
and make sure that she's first. | 0:31:06 | 0:31:08 | |
It didn't hit me until she was there and they put her in me arms. | 0:31:08 | 0:31:11 | |
It was like, "Oh, wow! It's real this," you know what I mean. | 0:31:11 | 0:31:14 | |
-It's just something you've got to do. -Hmm. Come to nana now. | 0:31:17 | 0:31:20 | |
I wouldn't want my daughter seeing what I've seen and been through. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:24 | |
If anything, it's inspiration to get out of the place you're in. | 0:31:24 | 0:31:27 | |
I don't want to raise my daughter round here, | 0:31:27 | 0:31:31 | |
so it's down for me to do something about that. | 0:31:31 | 0:31:34 | |
You should dream and you should always want to better yourself. | 0:31:34 | 0:31:38 | |
Even if you know you're not going to get it. | 0:31:38 | 0:31:40 | |
You could dream of being a millionaire, even though it never happens. | 0:31:40 | 0:31:44 | |
It's something to work to, something to push yourself with. | 0:31:44 | 0:31:47 | |
For some in Harpurhey, weekday mornings follow a similar pattern. | 0:31:50 | 0:31:54 | |
At 9:30, behind closed doors, a regular ritual begins. | 0:31:54 | 0:31:58 | |
"Why let me bond with your daughter if you know I'm not her dad?" | 0:31:58 | 0:32:03 | |
He's hanging anyway. | 0:32:03 | 0:32:06 | |
-He's a buzz. -I always watch Jeremy Kyle. | 0:32:06 | 0:32:09 | |
I think he's a buzz. I like him, me. | 0:32:09 | 0:32:11 | |
He just tells it how it is, don't he? It's funny. | 0:32:11 | 0:32:13 | |
I always watch it. And Jeremy Kyle USA. | 0:32:13 | 0:32:18 | |
"And I don't want nought." | 0:32:18 | 0:32:21 | |
GUESTS ARGUE ON TELEVISION | 0:32:21 | 0:32:23 | |
"Answer the question. Why haven't you told us..." | 0:32:23 | 0:32:26 | |
I like watching Jeremy Kyle because, after five minutes, you realise how lucky your life is. | 0:32:26 | 0:32:32 | |
People love it. Sat there, have a brew. | 0:32:32 | 0:32:34 | |
Half-nine in the morning, no work, come on. | 0:32:34 | 0:32:37 | |
Every time I see it in the morning, | 0:32:37 | 0:32:39 | |
"Yeah, I fucking know him, I know her." | 0:32:39 | 0:32:41 | |
"She's a silly cow her." Honestly. | 0:32:41 | 0:32:43 | |
People watch it at half-nine and let him come back on at half-one on ITV2 and watch him again. | 0:32:43 | 0:32:48 | |
Do you know what I mean, fuck that. | 0:32:48 | 0:32:50 | |
# You got me begging me for mercy | 0:33:00 | 0:33:03 | |
# Why won't you release me? | 0:33:03 | 0:33:07 | |
# I said release me-ee-ee. # | 0:33:07 | 0:33:13 | |
There's good news at the Wakefields, | 0:33:13 | 0:33:15 | |
as Amber's had a message from the drama school down south. | 0:33:15 | 0:33:19 | |
"Congratulations, the University of Essex has asked us to tell you | 0:33:19 | 0:33:24 | |
"that it is offering you a place for acting starting September 2012." | 0:33:24 | 0:33:30 | |
A whole lot of panic's just suddenly hit me. | 0:33:30 | 0:33:32 | |
I feel a bit... I don't know. | 0:33:32 | 0:33:35 | |
It's excitement but I think it's only hit me | 0:33:35 | 0:33:38 | |
that I'll be moving away on the 17th September it said. | 0:33:38 | 0:33:43 | |
I think I'm scared of leaving me mum cos this morning she said to me, | 0:33:43 | 0:33:47 | |
"You're starting to do your own washing now." | 0:33:47 | 0:33:50 | |
And I thought, "God, if she's telling me to do me own washing now at home, | 0:33:50 | 0:33:54 | |
"then I'm gonna have to do it away and buy me own shopping." | 0:33:54 | 0:33:57 | |
I even had a bit of a... I felt a bit upset that I had to do me own washing at home. | 0:33:57 | 0:34:02 | |
I thought, "Bloody hell, I must be growing up, I have to do me own clothes." I don't think I'm ready. | 0:34:02 | 0:34:07 | |
# I kissed a girl just to try it | 0:34:07 | 0:34:11 | |
# I hope my boyfriend don't mind it. # | 0:34:11 | 0:34:15 | |
How much money do you want to lend off me? | 0:34:15 | 0:34:18 | |
-£20. -20? -Yes. | 0:34:18 | 0:34:21 | |
Oh, I keep on telling her I'm skint. | 0:34:21 | 0:34:24 | |
What the hell? | 0:34:24 | 0:34:27 | |
It's just what I've saved, you know, just bits of change, loose change. | 0:34:27 | 0:34:32 | |
Loose change? Thank you. | 0:34:32 | 0:34:35 | |
I don't know what it is, I've got an addiction to fivers. | 0:34:35 | 0:34:38 | |
I love £5 notes. | 0:34:38 | 0:34:40 | |
-Are you happy that I'm moving away to London? -No, don't be so stupid. | 0:34:40 | 0:34:44 | |
It's weird, innit? It's strange. | 0:34:44 | 0:34:46 | |
And what if you don't like it? What are you gonna do? | 0:34:46 | 0:34:50 | |
That's what I mean, it's a hard choice I've gotta have to make. | 0:34:50 | 0:34:54 | |
Oh, don't want her to go. That's me worst nightmare. | 0:34:54 | 0:34:57 | |
I'd just miss her, having her there, really. | 0:34:57 | 0:35:00 | |
I'd probably miss the house, it'll be so quiet. | 0:35:00 | 0:35:02 | |
I like the noise and, you know, the dysfunctionality of our house. | 0:35:02 | 0:35:06 | |
There's never a dull moment, we're never all sat there boring. | 0:35:06 | 0:35:09 | |
There's always something going on. | 0:35:09 | 0:35:11 | |
Another new mascara, keep your little mitts off. | 0:35:11 | 0:35:15 | |
I don't. I don't touch any of your mascaras, I don't touch them. | 0:35:15 | 0:35:19 | |
-I don't touch your stuff. -Don't touch it? | 0:35:19 | 0:35:21 | |
Every morning, I see you tripping over everything in there. | 0:35:21 | 0:35:24 | |
I'm looking for your baby wipes half the time. | 0:35:24 | 0:35:27 | |
No, you're in this bag. | 0:35:27 | 0:35:29 | |
I haven't really thought of Amber leaving home much. | 0:35:29 | 0:35:32 | |
But I think I'd be happy and I think I'd be a little bit sad. | 0:35:32 | 0:35:38 | |
# I got your e-mail, you just don't get females, now do you? # | 0:35:39 | 0:35:45 | |
I'll be sad because she's me sister and I'll obviously miss her. | 0:35:45 | 0:35:49 | |
And I'll be happy that I have peace. | 0:35:49 | 0:35:52 | |
And maybe I could try and take over her room. | 0:35:54 | 0:35:58 | |
# You have to cry me out | 0:35:58 | 0:36:01 | |
# You have to cry me out | 0:36:01 | 0:36:06 | |
# You can't keep talking but, baby, I'm walking away... # | 0:36:06 | 0:36:10 | |
Whether it's boxing, business or trying to get famous, | 0:36:17 | 0:36:21 | |
Dale's always had the support of his family. | 0:36:21 | 0:36:23 | |
Although, he hasn't seen his dad since he was a baby. | 0:36:23 | 0:36:26 | |
It's always been me and my mum and Abbie. | 0:36:26 | 0:36:29 | |
So it's up to me to protect them in a way. | 0:36:29 | 0:36:33 | |
I'm the man of the house, you know. | 0:36:33 | 0:36:35 | |
I'm over-protective, especially of my sister. | 0:36:35 | 0:36:38 | |
If anyone ever hurt my sister, I'd, you know, I'd do stupid things. | 0:36:38 | 0:36:42 | |
I'd end up in prison and I would do the time for it as well. | 0:36:42 | 0:36:46 | |
I don't know my dad. My mum left him when she was pregnant with me | 0:36:46 | 0:36:51 | |
cos, apparently, he was just, you know, a bit useless. | 0:36:51 | 0:36:54 | |
When my mum first asked me if I wanted to meet him, | 0:36:54 | 0:36:57 | |
I felt angry in a way that I wanted to... I wanted to hit him. | 0:36:57 | 0:37:01 | |
I don't know why. | 0:37:01 | 0:37:03 | |
Maybe it might've been because of upsetting me mum and stuff like that. | 0:37:03 | 0:37:08 | |
So I think it's just best that we don't see each other. | 0:37:08 | 0:37:11 | |
It's his loss. If he wanted to see me he could. | 0:37:11 | 0:37:14 | |
But I don't want to see him. | 0:37:14 | 0:37:16 | |
My mum is my dad and that's who... | 0:37:16 | 0:37:18 | |
That's who's in me life and that's who's brought me up. | 0:37:18 | 0:37:21 | |
After 19 years, why would he want someone, | 0:37:21 | 0:37:24 | |
a stranger, basically, just to walk into his life now? | 0:37:24 | 0:37:28 | |
You wouldn't have that relationship, you wouldn't have a father-son relationship. | 0:37:28 | 0:37:33 | |
It's just like a man out the pub. | 0:37:33 | 0:37:35 | |
Nicola is still struggling to make ends meet and, at the moment, she can't afford to put the heating on. | 0:37:47 | 0:37:53 | |
"We filled your pay-as-you-go meter on the 25th June as you agreed." | 0:37:53 | 0:37:57 | |
"We'll collect £13.50 a week to pay your outstanding balance of £344." | 0:37:57 | 0:38:03 | |
"If you keep up these regular payments, | 0:38:03 | 0:38:06 | |
"your outstanding balance will be cleared by January 2013." | 0:38:06 | 0:38:11 | |
£344. | 0:38:11 | 0:38:13 | |
£13 a week? I couldn't even afford that either. | 0:38:13 | 0:38:17 | |
I'm thinking about leaving it all behind. | 0:38:18 | 0:38:21 | |
You feel trapped in a cave, like tied up in a cave and... | 0:38:21 | 0:38:25 | |
You don't want to be around it all. | 0:38:25 | 0:38:29 | |
It's not a nice living. | 0:38:29 | 0:38:31 | |
Despite the bills stacking up, | 0:38:31 | 0:38:33 | |
Nicola won't cut back where Crystal is concerned. | 0:38:33 | 0:38:36 | |
It's expensive to have a baby. | 0:38:37 | 0:38:40 | |
Maybe the social and the MP doesn't know that. | 0:38:40 | 0:38:43 | |
Can't start putting your baby in Primark clothes cos you wear it. | 0:38:43 | 0:38:49 | |
A baby should be wearing a nice decent pair of shoes on their feet. | 0:38:49 | 0:38:53 | |
Something nice and designer, really. | 0:38:53 | 0:38:56 | |
That's how much I... That's what I pay for her. | 0:38:56 | 0:39:00 | |
Well, I love TK Maxx, absolutely love that, that's good. | 0:39:00 | 0:39:06 | |
You can get designer clothes but cheap in there. | 0:39:06 | 0:39:10 | |
It's £10 for a pair of Ralph Lauren, like, jeans and stuff. | 0:39:10 | 0:39:16 | |
So it is cheap in one way to put your kid in designer clothes, if you root through. | 0:39:16 | 0:39:21 | |
Ryan is unemployed but he has dreams of leaving the area and making it big as a rapper. | 0:39:28 | 0:39:34 | |
He's preparing for a headline performance at an upcoming rap battle. | 0:39:34 | 0:39:39 | |
That's the most hyped about battle of the day, but I'll win it. | 0:39:39 | 0:39:43 | |
That's my battle all day that. | 0:39:43 | 0:39:45 | |
A rap battle is where two rap artists face off against each other | 0:39:45 | 0:39:50 | |
and see who's the best by slagging each other. | 0:39:50 | 0:39:53 | |
You can go metaphorically and punch line and go clever lyrics. | 0:39:53 | 0:39:57 | |
Or slag family members. Areas where they live, what they look like, hairstyles, anything. | 0:39:57 | 0:40:02 | |
The main thing to do is make the crowd laugh. | 0:40:02 | 0:40:04 | |
That's it. But it's good cos you can get like paid to go to America. | 0:40:04 | 0:40:08 | |
If you impress over here, American leagues like King Of The Dot go, | 0:40:08 | 0:40:11 | |
"We want you to battle our guy from here, American artist." | 0:40:11 | 0:40:15 | |
They pay for your flight and accommodation and you come over and battle. | 0:40:15 | 0:40:19 | |
Ryan's got access to his opponent's Facebook page | 0:40:19 | 0:40:22 | |
to find out information that can be used against him. | 0:40:22 | 0:40:26 | |
I've got his girlfriend, got all pictures of her and everything. | 0:40:26 | 0:40:29 | |
All pictures of them doing stuff and that. | 0:40:29 | 0:40:32 | |
Go on his info there. He does a nice biography of himself there. | 0:40:32 | 0:40:36 | |
He's put a big paragraph describing himself, what he's done, | 0:40:36 | 0:40:40 | |
what he does and that. So that I got all that straightaway. | 0:40:40 | 0:40:44 | |
# Let's go to the beach, each, Let's go get away | 0:40:52 | 0:40:54 | |
# They say what they gonna say Have a drink... # | 0:40:54 | 0:40:56 | |
Weh! | 0:40:56 | 0:40:58 | |
Fresh from her offer of a place at drama school, | 0:40:58 | 0:41:01 | |
today, Amber is celebrating another landmark, | 0:41:01 | 0:41:04 | |
becoming an adult. | 0:41:04 | 0:41:06 | |
Oh, it feels like a shoe box. | 0:41:06 | 0:41:08 | |
-Dorothy Perkins. -I wonder what it is. -Is it the same shoes? | 0:41:11 | 0:41:16 | |
Imagine. | 0:41:16 | 0:41:18 | |
-Oh! -Oh, my god. -Oh, they're beautiful. -That is amazing. | 0:41:18 | 0:41:23 | |
Oh, fucking shoes. | 0:41:23 | 0:41:25 | |
We went on holiday once and between them both, we only went for 11 days, | 0:41:25 | 0:41:29 | |
they filled the suitcase full of shoes, just shoes. | 0:41:29 | 0:41:33 | |
40 pairs of shoes for 11 days between them both. You know what I mean? | 0:41:33 | 0:41:37 | |
I went to pick the case up, I thought there was a body in there, it was that heavy. | 0:41:37 | 0:41:42 | |
All I can really say is that I can buy alcohol. | 0:41:42 | 0:41:45 | |
I couldn't care less about voting. | 0:41:45 | 0:41:47 | |
-I couldn't care. -I didn't think of that. | 0:41:47 | 0:41:50 | |
-Can we really vote? Does it really matter? -I don't get it, anyway. | 0:41:50 | 0:41:54 | |
-Who are the parties? Who do I vote for? -You vote for Labour. | 0:41:54 | 0:41:58 | |
What's it for, anyway? President? It's not for the president, is it? | 0:41:58 | 0:42:02 | |
-I was gonna say mayor. -God knows what it is. | 0:42:02 | 0:42:04 | |
But it's for something. | 0:42:04 | 0:42:06 | |
-Yeah, just those people that control our lives. -I couldn't care less. | 0:42:06 | 0:42:11 | |
Amber's always thought she was an adult from the age of five. | 0:42:11 | 0:42:16 | |
They know everything about fucking nothing. | 0:42:16 | 0:42:18 | |
Ryan, also known by his stage name Raptor, is in Warrington | 0:42:26 | 0:42:30 | |
for his rap battle against Dave, AKA Evila. | 0:42:30 | 0:42:35 | |
A win today could boost Ryan's profile as an up-and-coming rapper. | 0:42:35 | 0:42:39 | |
There's Evila now. | 0:42:39 | 0:42:41 | |
In the run-up to the battle, both rappers have been slating each other over the internet. | 0:42:41 | 0:42:46 | |
They're starting the pre-battle banter. It's better that way cos there's a bit of animosity. | 0:42:46 | 0:42:51 | |
You want to beat him. | 0:42:51 | 0:42:52 | |
If you're battling someone you like... I don't want to say... | 0:42:52 | 0:42:56 | |
Cos when you don't like them, you say, | 0:42:56 | 0:42:58 | |
"Fuck it. I'll do it anyway, I just want to beat him." | 0:42:58 | 0:43:01 | |
Welcome, everybody, to Rapped in Wire Behind the Bars for you. | 0:43:03 | 0:43:08 | |
One! Make some noise. | 0:43:08 | 0:43:10 | |
CHEERING | 0:43:10 | 0:43:13 | |
There'll be a lot of jokes, there'll be a lot of mum jokes and things like that. | 0:43:13 | 0:43:18 | |
Really, you have to have a split personality. | 0:43:18 | 0:43:22 | |
# Your mum's a whore always knocking on my door | 0:43:22 | 0:43:25 | |
# For a brand-new ride and she's wanting more... # | 0:43:25 | 0:43:28 | |
We live in these towns and cities that people don't really hear of or don't want to. | 0:43:28 | 0:43:33 | |
Therefore, we stand up to prove ourselves. | 0:43:33 | 0:43:36 | |
It's allowing equal opportunities for the little man, the quiet man, do you know what I mean. | 0:43:36 | 0:43:42 | |
# See my ambition is plenty and I've got skill | 0:43:42 | 0:43:44 | |
# So why the fuck have I been put against MC Hot Wheels? # | 0:43:44 | 0:43:48 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:43:48 | 0:43:49 | |
# He steps into this battle he can cause some trouble | 0:43:49 | 0:43:52 | |
# You know what I'll just roll forward so I can burst your bubble # | 0:43:52 | 0:43:55 | |
I, personally, let all me aggression out in a battle match. | 0:43:55 | 0:43:58 | |
Like a one-on-one with a psychologist because I'm emptying my heart. | 0:43:58 | 0:44:03 | |
And, you know, I'm getting all my feelings out. That's why it helps me. | 0:44:03 | 0:44:07 | |
Everyone show fucking respect, yeah. We're both rappers, we are, yeah. | 0:44:07 | 0:44:12 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:44:12 | 0:44:14 | |
Well, it's set up similar to a boxing match, battle rap. | 0:44:14 | 0:44:17 | |
But where they throw a punch physically, we throw a punch line, | 0:44:17 | 0:44:21 | |
which is a lyrical form. It'll hurt just as much. | 0:44:21 | 0:44:24 | |
Some of the stuff that's said in the battle | 0:44:24 | 0:44:26 | |
will probably hurt just as much as a punch in the face. | 0:44:26 | 0:44:29 | |
# His mother can't sleep on her fucking back cos the weight on her stomach would crush her fast | 0:44:29 | 0:44:34 | |
# I mean, if your mum laid on her back, the weight of them tits | 0:44:34 | 0:44:36 | |
# Would defo make her lungs collapse... # | 0:44:36 | 0:44:38 | |
My mum loves it, my mum will laugh at it and say, "You cheeky bugger." | 0:44:38 | 0:44:43 | |
# So you've been fighting with kids We'll meet up in mortal gamble | 0:44:43 | 0:44:46 | |
# If you want to brawl I'll bang you | 0:44:46 | 0:44:48 | |
# Gather my cord drag you to the door and hang you | 0:44:48 | 0:44:51 | |
# I got this behind the bars - why? | 0:44:51 | 0:44:53 | |
# Cos they were the doors that canned you | 0:44:53 | 0:44:55 | |
# And I'm going to deliver a harder sentence that any court could hand you. # | 0:44:55 | 0:44:58 | |
Time! | 0:44:58 | 0:45:00 | |
Once you're in that circle, you've got to perform. | 0:45:00 | 0:45:03 | |
If you stop, people will boo you, people will laugh at you. | 0:45:03 | 0:45:07 | |
There's so much pressure when it comes to battling it's unbelievable. | 0:45:07 | 0:45:11 | |
# I'm still trying to discover what planet you're from | 0:45:11 | 0:45:14 | |
# And I forgot that last... | 0:45:14 | 0:45:16 | |
# And, you know, listen, cos... # | 0:45:16 | 0:45:19 | |
A choke is probably the worst thing you could do in a battle. | 0:45:19 | 0:45:23 | |
The worst thing after the choke is stand there silent trying to think. Say anything. | 0:45:23 | 0:45:27 | |
# I'm fucking free, it would even have role play for the Pope | 0:45:27 | 0:45:31 | |
# Or let Michael Barrymore take him home. # | 0:45:31 | 0:45:33 | |
Fuck it, time. Go on, let him take it. | 0:45:33 | 0:45:35 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:45:35 | 0:45:36 | |
# Raptor, why the hype, mate? You're boring, your tape's appalling | 0:45:36 | 0:45:41 | |
# And to be honest you ain't great performing | 0:45:41 | 0:45:43 | |
# And you got a strong affection and a long erection | 0:45:43 | 0:45:46 | |
# For One Direction song collection. # | 0:45:46 | 0:45:49 | |
Time! | 0:45:49 | 0:45:51 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:45:51 | 0:45:53 | |
After the battle, that's it, we'll get pissed up together and have a laugh about it. | 0:45:54 | 0:45:59 | |
"I can't believe you said that about me mum." It's, like, whatever. | 0:45:59 | 0:46:03 | |
That's it. Shake hands. Who am I battling next? | 0:46:03 | 0:46:05 | |
Let's go and find some shit out and that. | 0:46:05 | 0:46:07 | |
OK, this is it, this is the judging hour. | 0:46:07 | 0:46:10 | |
Er, unanimous decision, it's three to one. | 0:46:10 | 0:46:13 | |
Both battlers were completely sick. | 0:46:13 | 0:46:15 | |
Came at each other hard, but it's three to one to Evila. | 0:46:15 | 0:46:19 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:46:19 | 0:46:21 | |
That's how it goes, innit? I got beat. | 0:46:21 | 0:46:24 | |
I am gutted, but, yeah, be better next time. | 0:46:24 | 0:46:28 | |
Fuck. Gutted that I dropped me third, gutted. | 0:46:28 | 0:46:32 | |
Nicola's been struggling to cope alone in her flat. | 0:46:39 | 0:46:43 | |
And her relationship with her mum is difficult. | 0:46:43 | 0:46:46 | |
After 19 years, she's made the big decision to leave her family in Harpurhey behind. | 0:46:46 | 0:46:51 | |
I just don't want to talk to my mum, I can't be bothered with her. | 0:46:51 | 0:46:55 | |
I've got a life now and I've got a kid. | 0:46:55 | 0:46:58 | |
I don't like the family that I've had, that god made me to have. | 0:46:58 | 0:47:02 | |
I didn't want them. | 0:47:02 | 0:47:04 | |
Nicola has moved in with her auntie Lisa 10 miles away on the other side of Manchester. | 0:47:05 | 0:47:11 | |
I think we just get along. We've both got kids and we know how it feels and stuff like that. | 0:47:11 | 0:47:16 | |
Yeah, Nicola is well better with me. | 0:47:16 | 0:47:18 | |
Gives her the time to think about what she wants, what her future is. | 0:47:18 | 0:47:23 | |
If she starts making plans and then she tells them to me, | 0:47:23 | 0:47:28 | |
I wait and I wait until she's ready to get up and follow her plans. | 0:47:28 | 0:47:34 | |
Wee! | 0:47:34 | 0:47:36 | |
I want a new life, I really do want a new life. | 0:47:36 | 0:47:39 | |
And up here, I'll be able to get a new life, I think. | 0:47:39 | 0:47:42 | |
One, two, three! | 0:47:46 | 0:47:50 | |
One, two, three! | 0:47:50 | 0:47:54 | |
Despite the turmoil in her life, Nicola is sure of one thing, | 0:47:54 | 0:47:58 | |
that Crystal is her number-one priority. | 0:47:58 | 0:48:00 | |
Got to have a lot to love. Love's the main part. | 0:48:00 | 0:48:04 | |
You've got to have love. | 0:48:04 | 0:48:06 | |
Like, with me, I never had love in my life, never. | 0:48:06 | 0:48:10 | |
With my dad I did, yeah. But with my mum, I didn't. | 0:48:10 | 0:48:13 | |
So all my love, what I've got to give for years, it's gone on her. | 0:48:13 | 0:48:18 | |
Whoosh! | 0:48:18 | 0:48:21 | |
Whoosh! | 0:48:24 | 0:48:25 | |
Look, the grass, you can do anything with it. | 0:48:25 | 0:48:29 | |
Wow! Is that good? | 0:48:31 | 0:48:33 | |
Through my pregnancy, | 0:48:34 | 0:48:36 | |
Adele come out and the song's come out, um, that Someone Like You. | 0:48:36 | 0:48:43 | |
Every time I used to put it on, Crystal used to kick and stuff. | 0:48:43 | 0:48:46 | |
When I was giving birth, I was singing it in me head. | 0:48:46 | 0:48:51 | |
It was the best thing in my life when Crystal come out. | 0:48:53 | 0:48:56 | |
You'd do anything for your kid. When people say that, people without kids, | 0:48:56 | 0:49:01 | |
they think, "Well, why would you do anything?" I would, literally. | 0:49:01 | 0:49:05 | |
People would do anything for their kids. | 0:49:05 | 0:49:07 | |
Oh, you're in jail. | 0:49:08 | 0:49:11 | |
Oh, she's in jail. Ah! | 0:49:11 | 0:49:15 | |
# Birds flying high, you know how I feel | 0:49:18 | 0:49:21 | |
# Sun in the sky, you know how I feel # | 0:49:23 | 0:49:27 | |
Dale's finally taking his training seriously. | 0:49:27 | 0:49:30 | |
And he's proved to coach Tommy that he's fit to take part in the fight. | 0:49:30 | 0:49:35 | |
He's in shape enough to do three two minute-rounds. | 0:49:35 | 0:49:38 | |
If he can't, then, you know, he should pack it in, shouldn't he? | 0:49:38 | 0:49:42 | |
# There's a new dawn... # | 0:49:42 | 0:49:44 | |
Ryan may have lost the rap battle this time, but he's hanging on to his dreams of a better life. | 0:49:44 | 0:49:49 | |
If you're gonna dream, what's the point in not dreaming about the best. | 0:49:50 | 0:49:53 | |
And I know people who want to be singers, dancers, actors. | 0:49:53 | 0:49:57 | |
There's nought wrong with aspiring to be something. | 0:49:57 | 0:50:00 | |
It's just pushing yourself towards it. | 0:50:00 | 0:50:02 | |
Amber has made a big decision about her future. | 0:50:07 | 0:50:10 | |
Her dreams of leaving her neighbourhood to study drama will, for now, be put on hold. | 0:50:11 | 0:50:17 | |
I think going to London at this age, I'm not ready for it. | 0:50:18 | 0:50:21 | |
The thought of moving is making me feel a bit sick. | 0:50:21 | 0:50:24 | |
You said to me the other day I had to do my own washing. | 0:50:24 | 0:50:28 | |
I nearly had a heart attack. | 0:50:28 | 0:50:30 | |
Everything was just way too fast for me. | 0:50:31 | 0:50:34 | |
It was just scary. | 0:50:36 | 0:50:38 | |
-What, doing your own washing? -Not just washing, moving away. | 0:50:38 | 0:50:43 | |
It's like, say if I needed you and it's like... | 0:50:43 | 0:50:46 | |
It's like five hours to get there. | 0:50:46 | 0:50:48 | |
I know you wouldn't cope. | 0:50:48 | 0:50:50 | |
London is a much faster place compared to what Amber's used to. | 0:50:50 | 0:50:55 | |
I went down there one day. I was there half an hour and I thought, | 0:50:55 | 0:50:59 | |
"Fuck that, I'm getting back." Honestly. | 0:50:59 | 0:51:01 | |
That's how bad it was. I thought, "Fuck me." | 0:51:01 | 0:51:03 | |
Everything's whizzing past me at 100 miles per hour. | 0:51:03 | 0:51:06 | |
-I'm not ready. -You're not ready, are you? | 0:51:08 | 0:51:11 | |
I think I've made the right choice of not leaving home this year. | 0:51:11 | 0:51:15 | |
I needed this gap year to sort of get my head round everything. | 0:51:15 | 0:51:19 | |
Everything was going too fast. I've only just turned 18. | 0:51:19 | 0:51:22 | |
This year was just too much. | 0:51:22 | 0:51:25 | |
-I'm not ready for you to leave. -I don't think I'm ready to leave. | 0:51:25 | 0:51:28 | |
It would be weird, wouldn't it? It'd be strange without you. | 0:51:28 | 0:51:32 | |
-I think it would. -I do, so I don't... I don't think I'm ready. | 0:51:32 | 0:51:37 | |
I don't think I'll ever be ready for my kids to leave home, will I? | 0:51:37 | 0:51:42 | |
Get your chin in! Jab him up! | 0:51:51 | 0:51:55 | |
At a club two miles west of Harpurhey, | 0:51:55 | 0:51:58 | |
the lads from the local boxing gym are taking part in a fight night. | 0:51:58 | 0:52:02 | |
The community is out in force and the Wakefields have come along to support Dale. | 0:52:02 | 0:52:07 | |
Go on, kid. Go on, kid, don't stop. | 0:52:07 | 0:52:10 | |
You gotta smack this kid straight in the line. | 0:52:13 | 0:52:16 | |
There we go. You're punching hard, come on. | 0:52:16 | 0:52:18 | |
Good man, on the target, come on. Good lad. | 0:52:18 | 0:52:21 | |
Dale's fight is up next and Tommy's got some last-minute words of motivation. | 0:52:21 | 0:52:26 | |
You can do this, you can really, really do this. | 0:52:26 | 0:52:29 | |
I feel calm like, I don't feel | 0:52:29 | 0:52:31 | |
nervous. When I'm going down, that's when I get that nervous feeling. | 0:52:31 | 0:52:35 | |
-Good luck. -Thanks. -Do you know what you're doing? | 0:52:35 | 0:52:38 | |
Yeah, I'm just gonna start smacking him. Go, "Hit me, hit me." | 0:52:38 | 0:52:43 | |
You're better than him. | 0:52:43 | 0:52:45 | |
Love you. | 0:52:45 | 0:52:47 | |
If you're messing about in the boxing and you're in that ring, you get hurt, you get knocked out. | 0:52:49 | 0:52:54 | |
You don't... It's not fun, do you know what I mean? | 0:52:54 | 0:52:57 | |
I've never seen anyone laughing while they're getting beat up. | 0:52:57 | 0:53:01 | |
Unless they're a bit mentally disturbed. | 0:53:01 | 0:53:03 | |
# Express yourself | 0:53:03 | 0:53:05 | |
# Express yourself, oh, do it! # | 0:53:09 | 0:53:12 | |
SHOUTING | 0:53:12 | 0:53:14 | |
I've give him £20. | 0:53:20 | 0:53:22 | |
If he wins, he can keep the £20. | 0:53:22 | 0:53:25 | |
If he don't win, he's got to give me 40. So he might win. | 0:53:25 | 0:53:30 | |
And representing the Moston ABC, Dale Walker. | 0:53:30 | 0:53:36 | |
I always try and clock whoever he's fighting. | 0:53:36 | 0:53:38 | |
I always make a point of trying to find out who he's fighting, then look who they've come with. | 0:53:38 | 0:53:44 | |
Who are they with? Let's have a look. | 0:53:44 | 0:53:46 | |
See if his mum's here, in case I need to have a fight with his mum. | 0:53:46 | 0:53:50 | |
You never know, do you? He might be cocky and all that and starting. | 0:53:50 | 0:53:55 | |
His mum might say, "Come on, and you. Bring it on outside, love." | 0:53:55 | 0:53:59 | |
Let's go now. | 0:53:59 | 0:54:02 | |
Go on, Dale! Go on, son! Go on, Dale! | 0:54:03 | 0:54:07 | |
"Come on, Dale! Smack him, Dale!" | 0:54:07 | 0:54:10 | |
-Go on, Dale. -I'm a bit intimidated by my mum. | 0:54:10 | 0:54:13 | |
I'll get in with any person at 11 stone and fight him. | 0:54:13 | 0:54:16 | |
But, my mum, you know, I'd have second thoughts. Honestly. | 0:54:16 | 0:54:20 | |
Go on, Dale! | 0:54:20 | 0:54:22 | |
Go on, Dale, give it him. | 0:54:23 | 0:54:26 | |
Good shot. | 0:54:26 | 0:54:27 | |
Yes, good lad. | 0:54:27 | 0:54:30 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:54:30 | 0:54:31 | |
Dale! Oh, he can kill him. | 0:54:31 | 0:54:35 | |
I know he's gonna win, you know what I mean? But it just does me head in. | 0:54:35 | 0:54:39 | |
Watch out for the jab. | 0:54:41 | 0:54:43 | |
Watching Dale fight is the worst experience I've ever seen. | 0:54:43 | 0:54:47 | |
Your kid in there, you know, getting battered or having a fight and you can't stop it. | 0:54:47 | 0:54:52 | |
It's not a street fight where you can actually go up and stop kids fighting or whatever. | 0:54:52 | 0:54:57 | |
You're actually... You see them in there, it's like, "Oh, my god!" | 0:54:57 | 0:55:01 | |
There's nothing you can do, you know. | 0:55:01 | 0:55:03 | |
I don't like it but I would never ever miss one, never. | 0:55:03 | 0:55:07 | |
Dale, 30 seconds! | 0:55:10 | 0:55:12 | |
Whatever I do throughout my life, whether I succeed or fail, | 0:55:14 | 0:55:19 | |
my mum will always be there no matter what. | 0:55:19 | 0:55:21 | |
Dale, upper cut! | 0:55:21 | 0:55:24 | |
SHOUTING | 0:55:24 | 0:55:25 | |
-Fuck him! -Come on, Dale! | 0:55:25 | 0:55:28 | |
Yes, Dale! | 0:55:28 | 0:55:30 | |
BELL RINGS | 0:55:30 | 0:55:32 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:55:32 | 0:55:33 | |
Whoa! | 0:55:33 | 0:55:36 | |
After a strong start, Dale's lost the fight. | 0:55:36 | 0:55:41 | |
Fuck off, fucking bastard. | 0:55:41 | 0:55:43 | |
CHEERING | 0:55:43 | 0:55:45 | |
Fucking twat. | 0:55:45 | 0:55:47 | |
Bastard. | 0:55:47 | 0:55:49 | |
I am proud of him, he's not something that I'd hide in the cupboard, anyway. | 0:55:49 | 0:55:54 | |
He isn't, he's my son and I love him to bits and I am proud of him. | 0:55:54 | 0:55:57 | |
Thanks, Mum. | 0:55:57 | 0:55:59 | |
I want her to be proud. | 0:55:59 | 0:56:01 | |
I think she should be, she's done a good job. | 0:56:01 | 0:56:05 | |
Next week, nine new-born puppies at the Wakefields | 0:56:06 | 0:56:10 | |
push the family to breaking point. | 0:56:10 | 0:56:12 | |
He's got to come home today. | 0:56:12 | 0:56:14 | |
My favourite saying to her now is, "Kaz, are these yours?" | 0:56:14 | 0:56:17 | |
Landlord Nik and tenant face off in an eviction battle. | 0:56:17 | 0:56:22 | |
And best mates Arrol and Patrick | 0:56:24 | 0:56:26 | |
prepare for their first holiday together. | 0:56:26 | 0:56:29 | |
My idea of a good holiday is getting tanned all day with carrot oil dripping off your tits. | 0:56:29 | 0:56:35 | |
