0:00:02 > 0:00:09This programme contains very strong language and scenes of a sexual nature
0:00:09 > 0:00:12BIRDSONG
0:00:37 > 0:00:41I'm so sorry, I've forgotten to bring you your towels.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45I'll put them in the bathroom for you.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Well, I think that's everything. Do say if it isn't.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58It's all lovely, Mrs Thompson.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02Oh, well, I don't know about that, but I hope it's comfortable for you.
0:01:02 > 0:01:07And it's Marion, please. And you'll be Joe, won't you,
0:01:07 > 0:01:10- unless you insist on Mr Lampton? - I don't insist.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18Chosen in your honour. We've got quite a selection.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21You just slip new ones in the frames when you're sick of them
0:01:21 > 0:01:25- so if they don't appeal to you, just say.- No, they're marvellous.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30Right, well I'll, um, I'll leave you in peace, then.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07All tickety-boo, chez Thompson?
0:02:07 > 0:02:11Sounded like a cushy billet when Joan passed on the number.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14I'd say I've landed on my feet.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17You look like you might have a talent for that.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Strictly frottage, old son.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24She's got the strength of an all-in wrestler.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28- Not worth the effort. Take it from me.- If you say so.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31TYPEWRITERS CLATTER LOUDLY
0:02:41 > 0:02:42Come in.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46- Mr Lampton to see you, Mr Hoylake. - Thank you, Charles.
0:02:50 > 0:02:54Senior Audit Clerk is nothing to be ashamed of at your age, Lampton.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57But there's plenty of opportunities here to better yourself
0:02:57 > 0:02:59if you keep your head down and your nose clean.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01That's what I intend, Mr Hoylake.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Good. Oh, thank you, Joan.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09- You're not a married man, Lampton? - No.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Take your time, is my advice.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14I intend to, Sir.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Save yourself a bit at this stage
0:03:17 > 0:03:19and you can give yourself a proper start in life.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Just how I like it - nice and strong.
0:03:28 > 0:03:32Ersatz. Now there's a thing.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36It's always struck me as ironic that, in spite of winning the war,
0:03:36 > 0:03:38we're stuck with ersatz this
0:03:38 > 0:03:42- and ersatz that. A German word. - Cedric, chicken.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45There's nothing ersatz about that, but you might have to wait
0:03:45 > 0:03:48until Cedric's delivered his paper to the Literary Society to get it.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50I'm sorry, Joe.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Are you a breast man or a leg man?
0:03:53 > 0:03:55White or dark meat?
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Oh. I'm not bothered thanks. It all looks delicious.
0:04:09 > 0:04:14I've never been to Dufton. What kind of a place is it?
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Dead. Dirty.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19- Have you lived there all your life? - Well, except for the Air Force.
0:04:23 > 0:04:28Well there's plenty of industry here in Warley.
0:04:28 > 0:04:32But I suppose we're lucky it's all on the other side of the town. Not where you'll be working.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36This is delicious, Mrs Thompson. Er, Marion.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38She's a marvel in the kitchen.
0:04:38 > 0:04:43Oh! Well, it's...it's lovely to have two men to cook for again.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54I...I should give you my ration book.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57Well, yes. Whenever you, you know, when you've had chance.
0:04:57 > 0:05:01The Food Office is right next to the Town Hall.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06You know we miss Maurice very much at times.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09But we don't live in a graveyard, do we, Cedric?
0:05:09 > 0:05:12We don't mind being reminded of him.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16Not at all. You mustn't worry about that, Joe.
0:05:17 > 0:05:18All right.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27I feel like that about my mother and father sometimes.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36He's smashing!
0:05:36 > 0:05:42- I'm even more smashing when you get to know me. Hidden charms.- Oh, aye!
0:05:42 > 0:05:45He never takes a full bloody hour for his dinner, 'im. It's not fair.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49Have you seen his wife? The wonder is he doesn't bring in sandwiches.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55I don't smoke, thanks.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59- So you're from Dufton, then? - Not any more, thank God.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01How are you finding Warley?
0:06:03 > 0:06:06I'm finding it greatly to my taste, I must say.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- He's got lodgings at the Top. - Mmm, posh. Whereabouts?
0:06:09 > 0:06:12Eagle Road. Not the top of the Top.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15- It's lovely round there. - Yeah. It is, isn't it?
0:06:17 > 0:06:20CAR HORN BEEPS
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Coupons in that skirt.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50CHATTER AND LAUGHTER
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- Sorry, I can go to my room. - Good, there you are. No, don't go.
0:06:55 > 0:07:01This is Bob and Eva Storr. Let me introduce you to Joe Lampton, our famous lodger.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03Bob and Eva are friends of ours.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05- Nice to meet you.- How d'you do.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08Nice to meet you, Joe.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12Well, it's lovely to meet you, Joe. It's Joe, is it? Not Joseph?
0:07:12 > 0:07:15It is Joseph. But I go by Joe.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Yeah. It has a manly ring.- Thanks.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Right, well, I'll bring the coffee then and, uh,
0:07:21 > 0:07:23you can reveal your dark purpose to Joe.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26You have been warned!
0:07:26 > 0:07:29- What about?- White slavery.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32- Actually, worse.- Eva!
0:07:32 > 0:07:36- Amateur dramatics. - We're short of men.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Always short of men.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42We got terribly excited when Marion told us there was new blood to be had.
0:07:42 > 0:07:48Didn't we, Bob? So have you ever dabbled, Joe, with thespians?
0:07:48 > 0:07:52A bit. In the forces. They had the opposite problem, though.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56You should see my Betty Grable. Actually, you shouldn't.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58- I bet you've got the legs for it. - Darling!
0:07:58 > 0:08:00You'll frighten the poor man off. We really do need him.
0:08:00 > 0:08:06He doesn't look like he scares that easily. Do you, Joe?
0:08:06 > 0:08:08I wouldn't say so.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12Cast members up stage, please. Careful with your glasses.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Hang the casting committee. I wanted to lead you astray.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18- Feel free.- No, I've got to be wholesome, apparently.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20I don't know what Alice has got that I haven't,
0:08:20 > 0:08:22but she always seems to get the pornographic parts.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24Maybe Bob's trying to tell me something.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Top of page four.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Have you met her?
0:08:28 > 0:08:29Who?
0:08:29 > 0:08:34Alice. Alice Aisgill. She's Hester to your Joshua.
0:08:34 > 0:08:38The strength of a giant and the heart of a child. That's you.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40Are you strong?
0:08:40 > 0:08:44- They said she was dead as soon as she hit the ground.- Not bad.
0:08:46 > 0:08:50- I'm Joe.- Oh, thank you. I'm Susan.
0:08:52 > 0:08:56- Oh, you are strong! - I used to box.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58Oh, if you went professional I'd run away with you.
0:08:58 > 0:09:02I couldn't resist a big, brutal, sweaty boxer.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18- What do you want? - You know what I want.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Not here.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23Run away with me, then.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Well, maybe we could manage a weekend.
0:09:29 > 0:09:30I'm looking for my wife.
0:09:32 > 0:09:36They were taking measurements for costumes. I think they're still up on the stage.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Nice suit.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47George Aisgill. He's always well turned-out.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50They've got no children to spend it on.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58- Night!- Night, Susan.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06- Night, Susan. - Oh! Goodnight, Joe.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09How do you do? I don't think we've met. I'm Jack. Jack Wales.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13- Joe Lampton. - Joe's got a part in the play.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- Oh. Where angels fear to tread, eh? - You not an actor, then?
0:10:16 > 0:10:19No. I'm afraid I have to go back to varsity in a couple of weeks.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Otherwise, Susan would have roped me in.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Thought they'd do plenty of that kind of thing at Oxford.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Cambridge, actually.
0:10:28 > 0:10:29Nice to have met you.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55- That's enough.- No-one can see.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05I thought we were going to have a weekend together.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08Yeah, well, we'd both had a few drinks.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Bob's a stickler for turning up on time.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16He'll take your part off you, if you're not careful.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30They said she was dead as soon as she hit the ground.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33They had to shoot the horse.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36- Did you see the accident, Joshua? - Nay, Madam.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39There was no light on the road, save from the workman's brassiere.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41CHUCKLING
0:11:41 > 0:11:43- Sorry.- Brazier.- Brazier.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47- Did you see the accident, Joshua? - Nay, Madam.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50There was no light on the road, save from the workman's brazier.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53It didn't give off any heat, neither did...
0:11:53 > 0:11:58It didn't give off any heat neither. Did they say who was in the car?
0:12:00 > 0:12:04It didn't give off any heat, neither. Did they say who was in the car?
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Can we do the whole thing from the beginning?
0:12:06 > 0:12:10I've rather lost the will to live. Shall we call it a night?
0:12:24 > 0:12:29Strong stuff, isn't it? Erotic vices among the working class?
0:12:29 > 0:12:30I'm working class.
0:12:32 > 0:12:33Good for you.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Don't suppose you'd like some coffee?
0:12:39 > 0:12:41I'm not a great coffee man, ta.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45Good. You can buy me a beer, then.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Right.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51- Clarence?- I know somewhere better.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53No thespians.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06Wouldn't have thought this was your sort of place.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08Really? I love it.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10It's on my way home,
0:13:10 > 0:13:13so I don't have to worry about driving far when I've had one over the eight.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15You live right at t'Top, I suppose?
0:13:15 > 0:13:19Yes. Linnet Road. You're Eagle Road, aren't you?
0:13:19 > 0:13:22- I lodge there.- God, Joe.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26Can you consider taking the chip off your shoulder for a minute?
0:13:27 > 0:13:34Try the Old. It's real beer. Dark. If you like that.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38And I'm paying. But just the first round,
0:13:38 > 0:13:39so don't get your knickers in a twist.
0:13:39 > 0:13:43Two pints of Old, please, and a packet of potato crisps.
0:13:43 > 0:13:44Extra salt.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48I've low tastes. I warn you.
0:13:58 > 0:14:03Oh, God! That's divine.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06Why haven't I thought of it before? You clever man.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08Well, I can't claim it as my invention,
0:14:08 > 0:14:10although crushing the crisps, that's a Lampton touch.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13It's a master stroke.
0:14:16 > 0:14:20Now, listen, we're going to be doing this play together.
0:14:20 > 0:14:24So I thought we'd better get everything straight between us.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28I don't care if you're working class or Little Lord Fauntleroy,
0:14:28 > 0:14:32but if you've got an inferiority complex, don't take it out on the rest of us.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39I'm sorry, but you were like a bear with a sore head in rehearsals.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43Fair enough. I was just in a bad mood, that's all.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Eva's a certified prick tease. Excuse my French.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Yeah, well, I wasn't taking her seriously.
0:14:50 > 0:14:55Good. There's plenty more fish in the small pond.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Susan Brown. She's gorgeous.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04- Grade two.- What does that mean?
0:15:04 > 0:15:07Hang on, get us another drink.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16Grades correspond to the income of husbands and fiances,
0:15:16 > 0:15:20ranging from one - millionaires, film stars, dictators -
0:15:20 > 0:15:23to 12 - under 350 a year, with no hope of getting any more.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25And what grade are you, then?
0:15:25 > 0:15:30The whole point of the scheme is husbands are chosen on eventual, as well as actual, salary
0:15:30 > 0:15:37so I'm currently grade seven - 600 and over, Deputy and Assistant Head group.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39The Lampton Report on Love!
0:15:40 > 0:15:43It's depressingly accurate, I promise you.
0:15:43 > 0:15:48Sometimes a grade seven man might hook himself a grade three wife.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Oh, well, there you go, then.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53Yeah, but you also get self-made grade three men with grade ten wives.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57They've hooked before they made their pile. They get grade three mistresses.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00I don't know whether that's Marxism or defeatism.
0:16:02 > 0:16:03Realism.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07And Susan Brown's a grade two, you say?
0:16:07 > 0:16:08If not one.
0:16:08 > 0:16:1020 grand a year you'd have to make.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14What does your husband do?
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Cars.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21Why don't you ask her out?
0:16:21 > 0:16:23She's not engaged, you know.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26Unless you feel inferior, in some way, to what's-his-name?
0:16:26 > 0:16:30Jack Wales? Do I heck, as like.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34Blokes like him think they've got a divine right.
0:16:34 > 0:16:38I can see she's just used to him and he thinks he owns her.
0:16:39 > 0:16:43Then ask her out. Man the barricades!
0:16:45 > 0:16:50It's funny talking to you, Alice. It's like talking to a fella.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Thank you, honey.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56Cheers.
0:17:04 > 0:17:08- 'Joe! Hello!'- I've two tickets to the ballet, The Haunted Ballroom.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10'Oh, how marvellous! I've been dying to see that.'
0:17:10 > 0:17:14Well, I'll pick you up, then. Saturday night. I mean, evening.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17'No, no, I'll meet you there. What time does it start?
0:17:17 > 0:17:22'Oh. Hang on. I'm all tangled up. I've just had a bath.'
0:17:22 > 0:17:23Uh... It starts at seven.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Are you sure you don't want picking up?
0:17:26 > 0:17:28'No. It's very kind of you. I'll meet you at quarter to.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30'That's it.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33'I've found my engagement book. You're officially inscribed.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35- 'Saturday evening, it is.'- Right.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38I'll look forward to it, then. Goodbye.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40'Goodbye. Thank you for calling.'
0:17:49 > 0:17:50Susan Brown?
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Charles, please!
0:17:52 > 0:17:55My intentions are those commonly described as "honourable".
0:17:55 > 0:18:00- A box of chocolates, a kiss on the cheek at the end of the night, if I'm lucky.- What's your game, Lampton?
0:18:00 > 0:18:05A long game, Charles. A very, very long game.
0:18:07 > 0:18:08She's lovely.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11So's that, but I can't afford it!
0:18:12 > 0:18:16- HE BELCHES - Sorry. Corned beef.
0:18:16 > 0:18:17What you've got to realise is,
0:18:17 > 0:18:22Susan Brown is a walking, breathing justification of the capitalist system.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24You old romantic fool.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Anyway, a little bird tells me you've been going about with Alice Aisgill.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32I've been for a drink with her a few times. We're in this play together.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36- I have to make torrid love to her. - Lucky man.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39More than her husband's been doing, if you listen to gossip.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41He's got a fancy woman up in Leddersford.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43Don't say you'd say no.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47Oh, she's a bit long in the tooth, isn't she?
0:18:47 > 0:18:51No, it's a platonic thing. I like the woman. Really.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53Ah, platonic. Like me and Joan.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56I might take her away for a platonic weekend.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58And maybe she'll end up having my platonic baby.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03Now THAT is fine.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07More than a week's wages for a shirt?
0:19:07 > 0:19:09- That's barmy, lad. - Don't you want it, though?
0:19:09 > 0:19:13A three-guinea linen shirt, Aston Martin, girl with a Riviera suntan?
0:19:13 > 0:19:14Why not, Charles?
0:19:14 > 0:19:18Why shouldn't we have everything Warley has to offer?
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Marry Princess Margaret, that'll sort you out.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39Eh, best bib and tucker, eh? You been stood up?
0:19:39 > 0:19:41Looks like it.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53Oh, I'm so sorry. You must have thought I'd forgotten.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55Are we too late?
0:19:56 > 0:19:58- Oh, God, Joe! How sweet!- Come on.
0:20:09 > 0:20:14Mmm! It's gorgeous, isn't it? Oh, I simply adore ballet.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Music makes me feel all squashy inside.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Have you seen Fontaine?
0:20:20 > 0:20:22No. No, I'd love to.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25She's beautiful. An artist.
0:20:28 > 0:20:29Did you see her in London, Joe?
0:20:30 > 0:20:33- A few times.- What in?
0:20:33 > 0:20:36Oh, you know, the classics.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40- I'm not sure I don't prefer this though. More modern.- Mmm.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43I'm not sure I'm clever enough to understand it all.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45I think you're being modest.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51- You sure you wouldn't like a drink or an ice cream?- Oh, no, thank you.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54I'm perfectly happy as I am.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57I have to say, I had you down as a dear kipper.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00- A what?- A dear kipper.
0:21:00 > 0:21:04When I was little and I wanted this, that, and the other,
0:21:04 > 0:21:07my mother would say, "You're a dear kipper, you!" Because it all costs money.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11I think it sounds lovely. "A dear kipper."
0:21:17 > 0:21:20Does your mother still call you that?
0:21:20 > 0:21:25- She's dead. She died in the war with my dad.- Oh.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29But I like talking about her.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32I don't live in a graveyard.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36BELL RINGS
0:21:36 > 0:21:40I'd like to take you to Sadler's Wells.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44I'd like to go.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47BELL RINGS
0:21:48 > 0:21:52Joshua, I never know anything of what you're thinking,
0:21:52 > 0:21:54especially what you're thinking of me,
0:21:54 > 0:21:57the woman who loves you with all her heart.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01Everything I have to give, I give to you.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04I know, my darling. I know.
0:22:04 > 0:22:08And you should know that my heart belongs to you.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11- Joshua.- Hush, woman!
0:22:14 > 0:22:16There'll be no harvest now.
0:22:16 > 0:22:21APPLAUSE
0:22:22 > 0:22:23Well done.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:22:37 > 0:22:40Susan! Coming to The Clarence?
0:22:40 > 0:22:43Oh, I'd love to, but Jack's waiting for me.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45He's taking me out to supper.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48Oh. Back, is he? He's only been at Cambridge five minutes.
0:22:48 > 0:22:49Disgraceful, isn't it?
0:22:49 > 0:22:52They have very short terms. See you later, Joe.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Yeah, maybe next week some time.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00Fancy a quick one at the St Clair? Or a slow one even?
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Absolutely.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05Darling, you don't mind me bringing my lover, do you?
0:23:05 > 0:23:07The more the merrier.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14You're a Town Hall wallah, aren't you?
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Treasurers.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Must be a bit dull.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20Oh, you'd be surprised.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22There's always some businessman on the fiddle.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24My God, you lot hate paying rates!
0:23:24 > 0:23:28Not guilty, old man. My place isn't in Warley.
0:23:28 > 0:23:32We don't like that, either. Depriving your home town of income.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34Oh, God, no shop. I beg you.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39Couldn't you of put a bit of make-up on?
0:23:41 > 0:23:46Just taken all that filthy stage stuff off. It's terrible for the skin.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49Sorry to offend, gents.
0:23:57 > 0:23:58Better?
0:23:58 > 0:24:00Slightly.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03- Same again?- No, it's my shout.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Rubbish! You're our guest.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Wasn't too bad tonight, I thought.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18I'll miss it.
0:24:19 > 0:24:20Me, too.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26You look so sad.
0:24:27 > 0:24:28Must be the make-up.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30George was right.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38What you up to over Christmas?
0:24:39 > 0:24:43Nothing. Well, worse than nothing. Dufton.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47Staying at my auntie's.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59And how is your campaign going? With Susan?
0:25:01 > 0:25:03It's looking like a bust to me.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Jack Wales is back on the scene.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09Well, maybe you should play hard to get.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12- Do you think? - It's been known to work.
0:25:12 > 0:25:17And I'd say Susan's the kind of girl who's used to getting everything offered to her on a plate.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19She's bound to be a bit spoilt.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21Who's this?
0:25:21 > 0:25:26Susan Brown. Joe's taken a fancy to her.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29Oh, good man. I wouldn't take her dad on, though.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32Not without plenty of ammo. He fights a pretty dirty game, does Harry.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34It's not him I'm keen on.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42- Here.- Thank you, honey.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48- Merry Christmas, Joe. - Merry Christmas.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02KNOCK AT DOOR
0:26:06 > 0:26:08We'll miss you, Joe.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12Thanks for the gloves. You shouldn't have.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16You were supposed to save that for Christmas Day. Something to unwrap.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19I'm glad they fit.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Like a glove!
0:26:31 > 0:26:34- Happy Christmas, Mrs Thompson.- Oh!
0:26:59 > 0:27:02PHONE RINGS AT OTHER END
0:27:05 > 0:27:07'Warley 6813?'
0:27:07 > 0:27:10Alice, it's Joe. Joe Lampton.
0:27:11 > 0:27:15- 'Happy New Year, Joe.' - Happy New Year.
0:27:32 > 0:27:33Come and get warm.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53Was your Christmas as ghastly as mine?
0:27:53 > 0:27:56It's for kids, really, isn't it?
0:27:56 > 0:27:58No point to it, that I can see, once you've grown up.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00No.
0:28:02 > 0:28:06They were going to have all sorts of things up here once.
0:28:08 > 0:28:09Then it all came to nothing.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14Same old story - the war.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18I think we blame the war for too much sometimes.
0:28:18 > 0:28:23I'm not knocking it. It shook things up for me.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28Got me out of Dufton.
0:28:28 > 0:28:29Passing me exams.
0:28:31 > 0:28:32Got me...
0:28:33 > 0:28:35Got me laid.
0:28:37 > 0:28:40That would have happened sooner or later.
0:28:46 > 0:28:49You light it for me. Like in the films.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18COUGHING AND SPLUTTERING
0:29:18 > 0:29:20God, they're rough!
0:29:21 > 0:29:27Sorry! It's all they had in t'shop.
0:29:27 > 0:29:31You know, I didn't smoke before the RAF.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34You got breaks in training.
0:29:34 > 0:29:38Cigarette breaks. You just get into the habit.
0:29:42 > 0:29:44There were this one bloke in my hut.
0:29:44 > 0:29:47He used to set his alarm, believe it or not,
0:29:47 > 0:29:50so he could have a fag in the middle of the night.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Said it soothed his nerves.
0:29:54 > 0:29:56He bought it, though.
0:29:58 > 0:29:59Just on a recce.
0:30:01 > 0:30:05Fuel tank exploded 50 yards from base.
0:30:05 > 0:30:07Fried in his own fat, like bacon.
0:30:50 > 0:30:52It's a very moral kind of car.
0:31:26 > 0:31:30I was just thinking. How nice it is to have...
0:31:32 > 0:31:36..to make love to a woman...
0:31:36 > 0:31:39who don't weep with shame afterwards.
0:31:40 > 0:31:43Or eat fish and chips while we're doing it!
0:31:45 > 0:31:47Come on.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49Let's go and get warm. Oh, God, you are.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54Beautiful hands you've got.
0:31:54 > 0:31:56Brutal.
0:31:58 > 0:32:02Warm hands...cold heart.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10The other way round, surely?
0:32:19 > 0:32:21We'll still be friends, won't we, Joe?
0:32:23 > 0:32:25Loving friends.
0:32:25 > 0:32:27Yeah. Exactly.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30Don't fall in love with me.
0:32:31 > 0:32:33It's not the same thing, you know.
0:32:33 > 0:32:36Course not.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38Loving friends.
0:32:55 > 0:32:56SHE MOANS
0:33:09 > 0:33:11SHE MOANS AND PANTS
0:33:27 > 0:33:29SHE GIGGLES
0:33:32 > 0:33:34Actually, I could murder some fish and chips.
0:33:56 > 0:33:57Warley!
0:34:07 > 0:34:10HE WHISTLES "D'YE KEN JOHN PEEL?"
0:34:15 > 0:34:16Beryl.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19And how are you, Joan, queen of my heart?
0:34:21 > 0:34:23HE WHISTLES
0:34:24 > 0:34:27Oh, aye. What's all this in aid of?
0:34:27 > 0:34:29What could you mean, Charlie boy?
0:34:29 > 0:34:34Note the knife-blade crease in Mr Lampton's rather questionable trousers, Raymond.
0:34:34 > 0:34:38A sure sign that said articles of clothing have not been worn much recently.
0:34:38 > 0:34:42That, with the gratuitously jaunty whistling, can only signify one thing -
0:34:42 > 0:34:44how's your father?!
0:34:44 > 0:34:46You've got sex on the brain, that's your trouble.
0:34:46 > 0:34:49Only ruddy place I have got it. That's my trouble.
0:34:54 > 0:34:55Did you take this, Ray?
0:34:55 > 0:34:58Yeah, Mr Lampton.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00It were only five minutes back.
0:35:07 > 0:35:08You got the account for Nantwiches?
0:35:08 > 0:35:11Reckon we might have got them for teeming and lading.
0:35:11 > 0:35:13Well, that would make my day.
0:35:13 > 0:35:15There's something going on with Crosskills.
0:35:15 > 0:35:17I'll show you the entries. Here.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31I wish we could sleep together.
0:35:33 > 0:35:37I mean, really sleep. Spend the whole night.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42We could manage something, couldn't we?
0:35:42 > 0:35:45Doesn't he go away sometimes?
0:35:47 > 0:35:48Now and again.
0:36:00 > 0:36:02Oi.
0:36:03 > 0:36:04Esther'll be back soon.
0:36:05 > 0:36:10She's probably walking around in the cold, God love her.
0:36:10 > 0:36:14I didn't think you were beautiful at all when I first met you.
0:36:14 > 0:36:16I must have been blind.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21You know, sometimes you could be about 18.
0:36:22 > 0:36:24I'm just a crazy mixed-up kid.
0:36:27 > 0:36:28Mmm...
0:36:35 > 0:36:37You should have been a navvy.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41I hate to think of you ever wearing clothes.
0:36:41 > 0:36:44I don't think you could have ever met a navvy, love.
0:36:44 > 0:36:46They wear a lot more than accountants do.
0:36:53 > 0:36:57Careful. You're looking babies.
0:36:59 > 0:37:03If you look long enough, you'll see a baby.
0:37:09 > 0:37:13Actually, I can... I can see myself.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15THEY LAUGH
0:37:19 > 0:37:20Bless you.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33Oh. >
0:37:34 > 0:37:36Sorry, my darlings.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39I held as long as I could, but it's absolute brass monkeys out there.
0:37:39 > 0:37:43- It's all right. Alice has gone. - Cup of tea.
0:37:43 > 0:37:47Can I tempt you, darling? One to send you on your way?
0:37:48 > 0:37:50You're all right. I'd best get off.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16Alice is a very lucky girl.
0:38:16 > 0:38:20Mind you, she deserves a bit of luck. We all do.
0:38:22 > 0:38:25She has a heart of gold, you know. Always has had.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29Do you love her?
0:38:31 > 0:38:34It's about time someone did.
0:38:34 > 0:38:39But I can tell you're not the type to wear your heart on your sleeve.
0:38:39 > 0:38:40What do you mean "someone"?
0:38:42 > 0:38:44George isn't exactly love's young dream
0:38:44 > 0:38:47and roses round the door, is he?
0:38:47 > 0:38:50My god. Your sort are always the jealous ones.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57You're all right. I've got work to do.
0:39:05 > 0:39:07Why do you think she married him?
0:39:10 > 0:39:12He asked her.
0:39:20 > 0:39:22- KNOCK AT THE DOOR - Joe!
0:39:24 > 0:39:25Come in.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29I'm sorry to disturb you.
0:39:29 > 0:39:31I've just been on the telephone to Eva Storr.
0:39:31 > 0:39:33She's having a birthday party next Saturday
0:39:33 > 0:39:35and she's invited us all along.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37I'll have to take her a present, won't I?
0:39:37 > 0:39:39Well, you can leave it to me, if you like.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41I know the kind of thing she likes.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43And I promise not to break you.
0:39:43 > 0:39:45You're too good to me, you know.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47I enjoy it.
0:39:50 > 0:39:51You could do with a bit of fun.
0:39:51 > 0:39:54You've had your nose to the grindstone too long with exams.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57Dark circles under your eyes.
0:40:14 > 0:40:15Uh...
0:40:16 > 0:40:19I don't bear such close scrutiny, honey.
0:40:21 > 0:40:22You've got a fabulous figure.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28You should have seen me ten years ago.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32Actually, you can somewhere.
0:40:33 > 0:40:35I did life modelling when I was in rep.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37There's probably a drawing room in the Home Counties
0:40:37 > 0:40:41where I'm displayed in all my former glory.
0:40:50 > 0:40:51You never told me.
0:40:53 > 0:40:54Why didn't you tell me?
0:40:54 > 0:40:59There's a lot you don't know about me. My disreputable past.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10Sweetheart, it's nothing to worry about.
0:41:14 > 0:41:16Well, maybe you better tell me everything.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20Oh, for God's sake, Joe.
0:41:20 > 0:41:21It was an art college.
0:41:21 > 0:41:25I needed the money. The room was freezing cold.
0:41:25 > 0:41:26I got cramp. I wasn't very good.
0:41:26 > 0:41:29And I did a bit for a photographer I met at a party.
0:41:29 > 0:41:30- He had a gas fire.- Did he now?
0:41:31 > 0:41:33Yes.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37Oh, God, you can be so bloody provincial!
0:41:40 > 0:41:42That's what you like, isn't it?
0:41:43 > 0:41:47Leg-show and lingerie. Ooh-la-la. Slap and tickle.
0:41:47 > 0:41:50You stupid bitch!
0:41:50 > 0:41:52Get off me.
0:42:06 > 0:42:11Esther isn't made of money, you know. This isn't a hotel.
0:42:13 > 0:42:16Well, give her that, then. Tell her I broke the bottle.
0:42:22 > 0:42:24I actually thought you were different.
0:42:24 > 0:42:26What kind of sap am I?
0:42:26 > 0:42:30I'm not you dirty private postcard, Joe.
0:42:30 > 0:42:33I own my body.
0:42:33 > 0:42:35Tits. Cunt.
0:42:35 > 0:42:39Yeah. I can say those words.
0:42:39 > 0:42:43And I'm not ashamed of them. And I'm not ashamed of anything I've ever done.
0:42:43 > 0:42:46If you'd ever mixed with intelligent people, you'd have an inkling of that.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49- I can't help where I come from! - Oh, change the bloody record!
0:42:52 > 0:42:56Not that it makes any difference, but I was damned near starvation
0:42:56 > 0:42:58when I transgressed your peculiar morality.
0:42:58 > 0:43:01You make a great to-do about your humble beginnings,
0:43:01 > 0:43:04but you've never gone hungry, have you?
0:43:04 > 0:43:08Didn't someone else always go short for you, Joe?
0:43:08 > 0:43:14Mummy's boy. Teacher's pet. Housewife's choice.
0:43:16 > 0:43:18What do you think a prisoner-of-war gets to eat?
0:43:23 > 0:43:26We ought to be sensible about it.
0:43:27 > 0:43:29We both agreed there'd be nothing permanent.
0:43:33 > 0:43:37All right. If that's what you want. We'll call it a day.
0:43:39 > 0:43:42There's nothing more to say, is there?
0:43:44 > 0:43:45Alice.
0:43:47 > 0:43:51I'm sorry.
0:43:51 > 0:43:53I'm grateful to you.
0:43:53 > 0:43:55Truly.
0:44:13 > 0:44:17Oh, happy birthday, Eva. You look lovely.
0:44:17 > 0:44:19I bought you some chocolates.
0:44:19 > 0:44:22Hello. I hoped you'd be coming.
0:44:22 > 0:44:23You look good enough to eat.
0:44:23 > 0:44:26I'm not sure you've got room on the plate.
0:44:26 > 0:44:30Watch out, Susan, our Joe has a huge appetite for everything.
0:44:30 > 0:44:33Iron guts they used to call me in the RAF.
0:44:33 > 0:44:37- If he were fatter, he'd be just like Henry VIII.- Eva. You're horrid.
0:44:38 > 0:44:40I like to see a man eat.
0:44:40 > 0:44:43Henry was famous for more than just eating.
0:44:43 > 0:44:47Rest assured, love, if I was going to chop anyone's head off, you'd be first in the queue.
0:44:49 > 0:44:51No wives to speak of...yet.
0:44:52 > 0:44:54Glad to hear it.
0:44:54 > 0:44:56I always thought you liked older women.
0:44:56 > 0:44:59Oh, did I not mention? The Aisgills can't make it, by the way.
0:44:59 > 0:45:03George telephoned just to say that they have a previous engagement.
0:45:03 > 0:45:05Don't mind the birthday girl.
0:45:05 > 0:45:09- She's jealous, cos you're the most beautiful girl here.- Don't make fun.
0:45:09 > 0:45:12I wasn't. Not of you.
0:45:23 > 0:45:26Christ, Susan, you're the loveliest thing I've ever seen.
0:45:32 > 0:45:34Are you angry with me?
0:45:34 > 0:45:37I telephoned. Didn't you get the message?
0:45:39 > 0:45:44Ah, well, I've been busy. I've got exams coming up and...
0:45:44 > 0:45:46- You seemed busy yourself over Christmas.- You mean Jack.
0:45:46 > 0:45:48Joe...
0:45:48 > 0:45:51We go about together but it's nothing serious.
0:45:51 > 0:45:53Mummy likes him.
0:45:53 > 0:45:57Right, well, that's the main thing, isn't it?
0:45:57 > 0:45:58Don't be like that, please.
0:46:00 > 0:46:02It's not like...
0:46:03 > 0:46:08The times we went out together, you never even tried to kiss me.
0:46:08 > 0:46:11The times I took you out, I just gave it up.
0:46:11 > 0:46:14You seemed so cold and proper.
0:46:14 > 0:46:16It didn't seem any use.
0:46:18 > 0:46:20You know when a woman wants to be kissed.
0:46:22 > 0:46:24Maybe she doesn't always know herself.
0:46:32 > 0:46:33There's a pure kiss for you.
0:46:36 > 0:46:38I don't want a pure kiss.
0:46:48 > 0:46:51You make me feel funny inside. I...
0:46:51 > 0:46:53I've never felt like that before.
0:47:03 > 0:47:04Come in.
0:47:05 > 0:47:09Well, you're picking up the work very well, I must say.
0:47:11 > 0:47:15And I'm most gratified to see that you're acquiring the qualifications to do even better.
0:47:15 > 0:47:19Plenty of room for promotion here, you know.
0:47:21 > 0:47:23You like it here, don't you?
0:47:23 > 0:47:27Very much. I love it.
0:47:27 > 0:47:31Joe, you may resent what I'm going to say now.
0:47:32 > 0:47:36What you do in your spare time is, of course, your business...
0:47:36 > 0:47:38within limits.
0:47:38 > 0:47:41And I needn't tell you what those limits are.
0:47:41 > 0:47:43Have there been any complaints?
0:47:43 > 0:47:46Oh, for heaven's sake, don't misunderstand me.
0:47:46 > 0:47:50Whatever the limits of decorum are, you have not, I assure you,
0:47:50 > 0:47:52transgressed them.
0:47:52 > 0:47:54Well, that's a relief.
0:47:54 > 0:47:56Let me put it this way...
0:47:56 > 0:48:01You have, I'm sure, some notion of the workings of local government.
0:48:01 > 0:48:06In theory, the most important cog in the machine is the councillor.
0:48:06 > 0:48:10In practice, we know it's the senior official who runs the show.
0:48:10 > 0:48:13But promotion is another matter.
0:48:15 > 0:48:20Promotion, whatever the head of the department may recommend,
0:48:20 > 0:48:23is dependent on the majority vote of the Establishments Committee.
0:48:23 > 0:48:26And councillors are like sheep.
0:48:26 > 0:48:32If a powerful personality declares himself against an official's promotion,
0:48:32 > 0:48:37then the majority will follow him, just to curry favour.
0:48:39 > 0:48:42- Do I make myself clear? - Not entirely, if I'm honest.
0:48:44 > 0:48:50Councillor Brown is the Chairman of the Establishments Committee.
0:48:50 > 0:48:53He's a very wealthy and powerful man.
0:48:53 > 0:48:56Engineer by trade, you know?
0:48:56 > 0:49:00He likes everything to run like a piece of first-class machinery,
0:49:00 > 0:49:03including his family.
0:49:03 > 0:49:05Well, perhaps I'd better apply for a job elsewhere, then, eh?
0:49:05 > 0:49:08Oh, good God, dear chap, don't take the wrong end of the stick.
0:49:08 > 0:49:11As I said, we're very pleased with your work.
0:49:16 > 0:49:19Are you planning on going to the Civic Ball?
0:49:21 > 0:49:25Yeah. I mean, a lot of the department's going.
0:49:25 > 0:49:27Plenty of pretty girls there.
0:49:27 > 0:49:31Guaranteed. I'll introduce you to them, if you like.
0:49:31 > 0:49:33You're not actually courting, are you?
0:49:35 > 0:49:36No.
0:49:37 > 0:49:40No, not as such.
0:49:40 > 0:49:43Well, save yourself a guinea and go solo.
0:49:43 > 0:49:45You don't take a bottle of beer into the pub with you, do you?
0:49:49 > 0:49:53Well, this is like Chekov, isn't it?
0:49:54 > 0:49:57We sit here drinking tea, discussing life.
0:50:06 > 0:50:13We'll begin by examining Joseph Lampton. Born January 1921 at Dufton.
0:50:13 > 0:50:17Father, John Lampton. Occupation, overseer.
0:50:17 > 0:50:20Education, Dufton Grammar School.
0:50:20 > 0:50:25Junior Clerk, Dufton UDC, 1937.
0:50:25 > 0:50:27Sergeant-Observer, 1940.
0:50:27 > 0:50:331943-1945, Stalag E91, Silesia.
0:50:33 > 0:50:38Present post, Senior Audit Clerk, Warley UDC.
0:50:38 > 0:50:43Prospects - might well be Treasurer of Warley, one day.
0:50:43 > 0:50:44You'll do.
0:50:48 > 0:50:53Lampton has risen remarkably high, considering his humble beginnings,
0:50:53 > 0:50:59but in our considered opinion, he lacks the necessary background,
0:50:59 > 0:51:05poise and breeding to succeed, in our sense of the word.
0:51:05 > 0:51:10In short, he is, essentially, vulgar.
0:51:10 > 0:51:14In addition, we learned, to our astonishment and horror,
0:51:14 > 0:51:17that Lampton has entered upon a clandestine relationship
0:51:17 > 0:51:20with a young Grade Two woman. She'll be here, you know.
0:51:20 > 0:51:22Not if we don't get a move on, she won't.
0:51:22 > 0:51:25Joan will think I've fallen in.
0:51:25 > 0:51:28You're worse than a bloody woman, you.
0:51:35 > 0:51:38It's the same every year.
0:51:38 > 0:51:43You either pay the Earth for shorts or blow yourself up with bottled beer.
0:51:43 > 0:51:44I can stand it, just for the night.
0:52:17 > 0:52:21- Good evening, Susan. Jack. - Hello, Joe.
0:52:23 > 0:52:27- Mummy, Daddy, this is Joe Lampton, the young man I told you about. - How do you do, Mrs Brown?
0:52:27 > 0:52:31- Mr Brown. We met at my interview for the Treasurer's Office.- I remember.
0:52:31 > 0:52:34Dufton lad. He was in the forces like you, Jack.
0:52:34 > 0:52:36Where was it you said you did your basic, Lampton?
0:52:36 > 0:52:39Lincolnshire. Frinton Bassett. The 51st.
0:52:39 > 0:52:43- Good God, then you must know Chick. Chick Darrow.- Sorry, no.
0:52:43 > 0:52:46Thoroughly decent chap. I went to school with him.
0:52:46 > 0:52:48- Went for a Burton over the Ruhr, though.- How sad.
0:52:48 > 0:52:50I don't know him, I'm afraid.
0:52:50 > 0:52:51The officers didn't mix much with the NCOs.
0:52:53 > 0:52:56Dufton, did you say? Do you know Cannon Jones?
0:52:56 > 0:52:58Sorry, no.
0:53:02 > 0:53:05- Can I buy anyone a drink? - No, no, no, old boy.
0:53:05 > 0:53:07It's frightfully dear stuff, this.
0:53:07 > 0:53:10Extraordinary, really. You couldn't miss old Chick.
0:53:10 > 0:53:14Bright red hair, terrific baritone. Good enough to be a professional.
0:53:14 > 0:53:16If Joe didn't know him, he simply didn't know him.
0:53:16 > 0:53:18Oh, come now. He's a Dufton lad.
0:53:18 > 0:53:20George Pullman. You must know him.
0:53:20 > 0:53:22- I know the name, yes.- Amazing chap.
0:53:22 > 0:53:27He'll kill himself in that old Alpha. Drives it like a maniac. you must have seen him.
0:53:27 > 0:53:29I'm afraid I can't find much to admire in a tallyman.
0:53:31 > 0:53:32I don't follow you, old man.
0:53:32 > 0:53:36He sells clothes on credit for around 50% over the retail price,
0:53:36 > 0:53:38then charges interest on top of that.
0:53:38 > 0:53:42It's money lending dressed as trade. It stinks.
0:53:46 > 0:53:48You're sure I can't get anyone a drink?
0:53:55 > 0:53:57What do you reckon, Joe?
0:53:57 > 0:54:00Are Warley's finances up to another round?
0:54:00 > 0:54:02We're solvent, if that's the question.
0:54:02 > 0:54:05More than can be said for the country as a whole, eh?
0:54:05 > 0:54:08Winnie was right. We're under a Gestapo with this lot.
0:54:08 > 0:54:11Can't disagree with you there, Mr Hoylake.
0:54:11 > 0:54:13What do you reckon, Mr Lampton?
0:54:13 > 0:54:18You're talking to the wrong man, I'm afraid. I voted Labour.
0:54:18 > 0:54:21Did you now? Out with the old, in with the new, eh?
0:54:22 > 0:54:24We'll buy our own, then.
0:54:25 > 0:54:29"Can't disagree with you there, Mr Hoylake."
0:54:29 > 0:54:32Steady on. Voted Labour myself, as it happens.
0:54:32 > 0:54:35Why didn't you bloody stand up to him, then?
0:54:35 > 0:54:38What's ever, ever going to change if we just lie down
0:54:38 > 0:54:41and let the bastards walk all over us?
0:54:41 > 0:54:43Talk about the ruddy Gestapo.
0:54:43 > 0:54:45All right! Got the job to think of.
0:54:45 > 0:54:47They don't grow on trees.
0:54:50 > 0:54:54Sod this for a game of soldiers. I'll have some of Joan's.
0:54:56 > 0:55:00You're not wrong about tallymen.
0:55:02 > 0:55:07I wouldn't worry yourself about the way the world's run, lad.
0:55:07 > 0:55:11Pick your battles. Enjoy yourself while you're young.
0:55:14 > 0:55:15I'll do me best.
0:55:42 > 0:55:43No.
0:55:54 > 0:55:56There you are.
0:55:56 > 0:55:58You've seen more than Jack's ever seen...
0:55:58 > 0:55:59or likely to.
0:56:05 > 0:56:06Take me somewhere. Another day.
0:56:08 > 0:56:11Aren't you frightened of what I might do to you?
0:56:11 > 0:56:13Terrified.
0:56:14 > 0:56:16You better not be stringing me along.
0:56:19 > 0:56:20Why would I do that?
0:56:20 > 0:56:22Cos it feels nice.
0:56:29 > 0:56:31This feels nice.
0:56:33 > 0:56:36Why are you so touchy about being made a fool of?
0:56:39 > 0:56:40I don't know, really.
0:56:43 > 0:56:48I suppose...I'm horribly shy, deep down.
0:56:50 > 0:56:54Could never believe a woman would love me enough...to let me do this.
0:57:00 > 0:57:04- Oh, God, Susan. I'm bone-sick of myself sometimes.- You're wonderful.
0:57:04 > 0:57:08You are the wonderfullest man in the whole world.
0:57:12 > 0:57:14I think I'm falling in love with you.
0:57:14 > 0:57:15Look at you.
0:57:17 > 0:57:21It's not even that you look clean.
0:57:21 > 0:57:24You look like you've never been dirty.
0:57:24 > 0:57:27You know, I love you too, don't you?
0:57:27 > 0:57:30- Do you really?- You know I do.
0:57:32 > 0:57:34How much?
0:57:36 > 0:57:39A hundred thousand pounds' worth.
0:57:39 > 0:57:41A hundred thousand pounds.
0:57:44 > 0:57:47HE VOMITS
0:57:47 > 0:57:49Told you!
0:58:21 > 0:58:23PHONE RINGS
0:58:25 > 0:58:27'36813.'
0:58:27 > 0:58:30- I've got to see you. - 'Have you any idea of the time?'
0:58:30 > 0:58:34I'm sorry, Alice. I'm sorry about everything.
0:58:35 > 0:58:38Come to Spanaway, please.
0:58:38 > 0:58:40You've got to save me.
0:58:41 > 0:58:43Please.
0:58:43 > 0:58:45I'm so sorry.
