0:00:05 > 0:00:13This programme contains some scenes of a sexual nature.

0:00:30 > 0:00:33WOMAN: Can you introduce yourself?

0:00:33 > 0:00:36My name is Bert Middleton.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39I'm the second oldest man in Britain.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45This is the last thing I'll do, so you'd better listen carefully

0:00:45 > 0:00:48and do it properly.

0:00:48 > 0:00:49Make it honest.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58Where are we?

0:00:58 > 0:00:59The summer of 1914?

0:01:01 > 0:01:03HE LAUGHS

0:01:03 > 0:01:06The summer the bus came.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09HE GIGGLES

0:01:10 > 0:01:11Put up the photograph.

0:01:22 > 0:01:26I don't know why, but it was a solemn occasion,

0:01:26 > 0:01:28and that made it even more exciting.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32It was the first ever bus to come to our village.

0:01:32 > 0:01:36The bus came in. The bus stopped.

0:01:36 > 0:01:40The bus drove off.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45And there she was.

0:01:45 > 0:01:49No-one was expecting anyone to actually get off the bus.

0:01:53 > 0:01:55There she was.

0:01:57 > 0:01:59Was it love at first sight?

0:01:59 > 0:02:01What kind of question is that?

0:02:01 > 0:02:03I was 12 years old.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07Of course it was love at first sight.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15100 years later, when I say her name,

0:02:15 > 0:02:17I feel exactly the same way about her.

0:02:19 > 0:02:21Martha Lane.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28Martha Lane.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02Joe had gone to work at the Big House.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06I didn't know it then,

0:03:06 > 0:03:10but it was the start of him trying to get away.

0:03:10 > 0:03:15I was too young, too filled up with being alive to see what

0:03:15 > 0:03:16he was after.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19And nobody had left the village in 100 years.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25My father went abroad twice in his life.

0:03:25 > 0:03:29By "abroad," I mean out of the parish, and he didn't like it.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31All of life was in our village.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45Joe was my big brother.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48It wasn't that I could tell him about the lady from the bus,

0:03:48 > 0:03:53but I wanted to be with him, like I always did when the sky fell in.

0:03:55 > 0:03:56Or my heart heaved.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13Anyway, here's what happened.

0:04:25 > 0:04:29- You're going to swim today.- I can't.

0:04:29 > 0:04:33No, you will. Here, did I tell you about the drowning?

0:04:33 > 0:04:35- No.- I shouldn't.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37- Please!- No!

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Please!

0:04:39 > 0:04:42She was sucked under and never seen again.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Here?

0:04:44 > 0:04:47- D'you know what they say? - No. What?

0:04:51 > 0:04:52What?

0:04:56 > 0:05:00She's looking for a fellow to drown and be with her for ever.

0:05:03 > 0:05:04Joe?

0:05:12 > 0:05:13Joe!

0:05:18 > 0:05:20Joe!

0:05:23 > 0:05:25Joe!

0:05:25 > 0:05:26Joe! Help!

0:05:28 > 0:05:31She's under us, mate. I can feel her, she's underneath us.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Quick, quick. Swim for your life.

0:05:33 > 0:05:37Swim. Swim, fella, swim. Come on! Come on.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40Swim! That's it, Bert, you're doing it. You're swimming.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Swim to me. Come on.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12Oh, look!

0:06:12 > 0:06:14JOE LAUGHS

0:06:14 > 0:06:15Yeah!

0:06:15 > 0:06:18It was her! I saw her.

0:06:21 > 0:06:22We should get home.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24Do we have to?

0:06:24 > 0:06:26It's time to go, Bert.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31I'll look after you. All right?

0:06:42 > 0:06:44Hello.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Why do you say hello to me?

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Why wouldn't I?

0:06:51 > 0:06:54What do you want? Who are you?

0:07:12 > 0:07:14I'm 19 years old.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16You'll stand.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20Are you going to ask me, Mother?

0:07:21 > 0:07:24Did you get round?

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Three sides on me own.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32And the sheathing?

0:07:44 > 0:07:48I want you in the field at 3.00 tomorrow. Do you understand?

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Why are you shivering?

0:07:54 > 0:07:55Why's he shivering?

0:07:55 > 0:07:57I was teaching him how to swim.

0:08:03 > 0:08:05Sit down.

0:08:25 > 0:08:29Look at these hands. Look at the work in them.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39Swimming?

0:08:42 > 0:08:44Swimming?!

0:08:49 > 0:08:50Don't look at him.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57I said, don't look at him!

0:09:02 > 0:09:05Joe. No. Joe. Please!

0:09:13 > 0:09:15Joe.

0:09:15 > 0:09:19Joe. Joe!

0:09:22 > 0:09:24Joe!

0:09:24 > 0:09:26Joe! Joe!

0:09:26 > 0:09:29I don't want to be in here!

0:09:29 > 0:09:30Joe!

0:09:33 > 0:09:35Where is he?

0:09:40 > 0:09:42I'll wait for him.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57Come to bed.

0:10:58 > 0:11:01Come to bed, my man.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37I want you to have your life.

0:12:38 > 0:12:42You must do everything you can to find it.

0:12:57 > 0:12:59You wouldn't leave us, Joe.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51HE PANTS

0:14:12 > 0:14:15They're my sons. Why aren't they with me?

0:14:22 > 0:14:24Why?

0:14:24 > 0:14:27Because my left hand is not the right hand, sir.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29Mmm-hmm.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Get your hand up.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Why?

0:14:42 > 0:14:46Because...my left hand is not the right hand, sir.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48Mmm-hmm.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50Get it up.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58Oh.

0:15:04 > 0:15:05No, no, no, no.

0:15:10 > 0:15:14I'm busy here, Mr Eyre, if you don't mind.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16Get your hand up.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19Up.

0:15:20 > 0:15:21Look at me.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27Why?

0:16:43 > 0:16:47Mother says that we'll have water on tap next year.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49And then where will you be?

0:16:49 > 0:16:52And then where will he be?

0:16:52 > 0:16:54It'll get cold, Miss Caroline.

0:16:54 > 0:16:56So what are you waiting for?

0:17:18 > 0:17:20Poor Joe.

0:17:39 > 0:17:40DOOR OPENS

0:17:50 > 0:17:52Can you draw, Bert?

0:18:01 > 0:18:03Now you.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26Do you see that up there?

0:18:28 > 0:18:32Copy the shapes. That's all there is to it.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35You're tired.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37I didn't sleep much.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42What time is it now?

0:18:44 > 0:18:46It's 3.00.

0:18:46 > 0:18:49I promised my father I'd be in the field at 3.00.

0:18:49 > 0:18:50Well, I've kept you.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53You'd have been finished by now if it wasn't for me.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07It's too neat.

0:19:23 > 0:19:25THEY LAUGH

0:19:56 > 0:20:00Rake and sheath. All in eights. And don't think I won't check.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21For this harvest, you have my thanks.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23PEOPLE CHEER

0:20:30 > 0:20:34Pay me now. Or go and come back when you can pay me.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43Some more drinks, Peter.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47You thieving bastard!

0:21:29 > 0:21:32- Why did you do that, Father? - He's my neighbour.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59How long were you teaching for?

0:21:59 > 0:22:01A year.

0:22:01 > 0:22:04Greek and Latin, to a small boy in a big house.

0:22:05 > 0:22:08And why did you leave?

0:22:08 > 0:22:09My father wrote to me every Sunday

0:22:09 > 0:22:12telling me about the new village he'd come to.

0:22:12 > 0:22:13It made me want to be here.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15And what do you think?

0:22:17 > 0:22:19There's work to do.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23Our very own missionary.

0:22:24 > 0:22:27So, you'll take them?

0:22:29 > 0:22:31What will people think?

0:22:31 > 0:22:33John and Charles Wesley have come in by the back door.

0:22:33 > 0:22:37I came in the front, Mr Eyre. God doesn't need a back door.

0:22:37 > 0:22:41Neither, it seems, do Yorkshirewomen.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44What have you done to my son?

0:22:45 > 0:22:49Should we starve so he could learn to write?

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Does writing ever feed anyone?

0:22:52 > 0:22:54I know how hard things are for you.

0:22:54 > 0:22:57No, you don't. You have got no idea!

0:22:57 > 0:23:01But I also know that a boy needs an education.

0:23:16 > 0:23:21They won't dry. Every bloody sheath you've laid east-west.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23How many times have I told you?

0:23:23 > 0:23:26They only dry if they're north-south.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32Come on! Come on!

0:23:42 > 0:23:45Tripe and onions in milk and a little liver.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49Joe's wages.

0:23:54 > 0:23:55I'm going to bed.

0:23:59 > 0:24:00Pride is a sin, John.

0:24:02 > 0:24:06Then I'm going to hell, because it's all I've got.

0:24:21 > 0:24:22Can I have more of that, Mother?

0:24:22 > 0:24:25- Of course.- Thanks.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32Have you eaten, Mother?

0:24:32 > 0:24:34Yes.

0:24:45 > 0:24:51Must a man pay all his life for one mistake? Is that God's way?

0:24:51 > 0:24:53I forgive you.

0:24:57 > 0:25:03I think it is in everything you do and say that you have not.

0:25:03 > 0:25:05No, that is you, John.

0:25:05 > 0:25:08It is you not allowing my forgiveness in.

0:25:08 > 0:25:10Must it always be my fault?

0:25:16 > 0:25:19Hurry up! Come on!

0:25:26 > 0:25:28Come on. Hurry up!

0:25:38 > 0:25:40Your father got his harvest in?

0:25:52 > 0:25:54- You ready?- I am.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56Right, in your own time, Mr Evans.

0:26:01 > 0:26:06Everyone, now I would like you all to run down the hill,

0:26:06 > 0:26:08touch the church gate,

0:26:08 > 0:26:11turn around and run back up to school as quick as you can.

0:26:11 > 0:26:12Quick, go, go, all of you.

0:26:12 > 0:26:15Mr Eyre? It's a school photograph, Mr Eyre.

0:26:15 > 0:26:16On you go.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21Tommy, we are going to run on the spot, come on.

0:26:21 > 0:26:23Quick, quick, quick, quick.

0:26:23 > 0:26:26Children! Come back!

0:26:29 > 0:26:32This is not a sports day!

0:26:32 > 0:26:35Come on. Move it!

0:26:36 > 0:26:41Back in your places. Stop, stop!

0:26:41 > 0:26:45Quick as you can. Back in your same places, everyone.

0:26:45 > 0:26:49And we are...jumping on the spot!

0:26:49 > 0:26:53Jumping on the spot and...

0:26:53 > 0:26:56Three, two, one.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58THE CHILDREN CHEER

0:27:01 > 0:27:04What's going to happen?

0:27:04 > 0:27:07About moles? Five mole catchers in five years.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09What's the matter with them?

0:27:23 > 0:27:25Are you going to shoot them?

0:27:30 > 0:27:32Joe. Middleton.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38Arriving without an invitation

0:27:38 > 0:27:42and then talking to the waterman before she speaks to us.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45It's as though she's selling something.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47What are you selling?

0:27:47 > 0:27:50The thing to do is rise above and pretend you haven't noticed.

0:27:50 > 0:27:54Then she won't have the satisfaction she desires.

0:27:54 > 0:27:58Good afternoon, Miss Lane. We were discussing the mole catcher problem.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02Well, ask Joe. He'll know.

0:28:02 > 0:28:04Joe?

0:28:10 > 0:28:12Why do mole catchers die?

0:28:14 > 0:28:15Strychnine.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19Well, it gets on to your hands.

0:28:19 > 0:28:24And then you're breathing it in and then, well, it's in your blood.

0:28:24 > 0:28:25And then you die.

0:28:25 > 0:28:27What kind of a death?

0:28:30 > 0:28:32Great agony.

0:28:32 > 0:28:33Off you go, Joe.

0:29:04 > 0:29:06Did you see her when she got off the bus?

0:29:06 > 0:29:09Sucked-in waist like a man with a sour lollipop.

0:29:11 > 0:29:13CHILD CHATTERS

0:29:16 > 0:29:19The doctor told us, after I had this one,

0:29:19 > 0:29:23he said, "Your Henry may be small but he's certainly fecund."

0:29:24 > 0:29:26What does that mean?

0:29:26 > 0:29:30Good seed, high yield. Henry the fecund, they call him.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32Shh.

0:29:32 > 0:29:34It's what a married woman's for

0:29:34 > 0:29:36in the eyes of the Lord, eh, Miss Lane?

0:29:36 > 0:29:39Birthing, begetting.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42There's been that bad winters my Henry said to me,

0:29:42 > 0:29:46"Why don't you have a couple of lambs instead of another baby?"

0:29:46 > 0:29:50Oh, yes. We're good at begetting, us Bodens.

0:29:50 > 0:29:55My Paul will make a woman of you, Agnes, you can bank on that.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57CHILD: I can't find the soap.

0:29:57 > 0:29:59Oh, dear.

0:29:59 > 0:30:02What's it like? Being married?

0:30:02 > 0:30:05My mother gave me some advice when I was your age.

0:30:05 > 0:30:09She said, "Look after your husband as well as you're able,

0:30:09 > 0:30:12"but if he's not happy for reasons that you can't understand,

0:30:12 > 0:30:14"there's always something you can do."

0:30:14 > 0:30:16What?

0:30:16 > 0:30:17Mother him.

0:30:21 > 0:30:23What can you see?

0:30:23 > 0:30:24Nothing.

0:30:26 > 0:30:29Something halfway is about right.

0:30:29 > 0:30:34A woman should be halfway between bustle and nothing.

0:30:34 > 0:30:35Should be?

0:30:37 > 0:30:39Does it matter how a woman looks?

0:30:41 > 0:30:43Norma's being courted, Margaret.

0:30:43 > 0:30:45Oh, is she now?

0:30:45 > 0:30:48Bert! What is it?

0:30:51 > 0:30:54Bert? Bert!

0:30:54 > 0:30:55What can you see?

0:31:12 > 0:31:14What is it?

0:31:32 > 0:31:35HE PANTS

0:31:37 > 0:31:39Hey! Boy!

0:31:39 > 0:31:41Get inside now.

0:31:47 > 0:31:49Tell your mother what you were doing!

0:31:57 > 0:31:59No?

0:32:00 > 0:32:02I'll tell her.

0:32:05 > 0:32:07Stone picking for Rutter.

0:32:07 > 0:32:10This farm's halfway dead because there's no-one to work it,

0:32:10 > 0:32:13and me own son stone picking for Rutter.

0:32:15 > 0:32:18- Lie down.- What?- On t'floor.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23On your side.

0:32:25 > 0:32:27What do you see?

0:32:27 > 0:32:29- The door.- What else?

0:32:29 > 0:32:30John.

0:32:30 > 0:32:31What else?

0:32:31 > 0:32:33The floor.

0:32:34 > 0:32:36What about it?

0:32:41 > 0:32:45There's a dip near the door.

0:32:46 > 0:32:48And there's a dip here...

0:32:50 > 0:32:51..near t'fire place,

0:32:51 > 0:32:55where five generations of this family have stood.

0:32:55 > 0:32:59The highest point is under the table because the table has never moved

0:32:59 > 0:33:03and no-one's ever trodden on it under there.

0:33:03 > 0:33:05This is our floor.

0:33:10 > 0:33:11This is our farm.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16And I will not let it go.

0:33:33 > 0:33:34Catch.

0:33:36 > 0:33:37Magnum Bonum.

0:33:39 > 0:33:41It's the name of the potato.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51Where are you off to?

0:33:51 > 0:33:52I'm looking for elderberry.

0:33:52 > 0:33:56You put it on the blinkers and the flies don't like it.

0:33:56 > 0:33:58- The horse.- Big Molly.

0:33:58 > 0:34:00I could help.

0:34:01 > 0:34:03If you want me to.

0:34:13 > 0:34:15Can't see any.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17Across the bridge.

0:35:01 > 0:35:03Don't know what you're laughing at.

0:35:05 > 0:35:10Now, did I ever tell you about the big flood?

0:35:10 > 0:35:11BOTH: Yes, Mother.

0:35:16 > 0:35:18Here y'are, look at them.

0:36:59 > 0:37:01BOYS CHATTER AND CHEER

0:37:39 > 0:37:41Early for lunch.

0:37:41 > 0:37:42Rise above, baby.

0:37:59 > 0:38:00Thank you very much.

0:38:04 > 0:38:06Are these Magnum Bonum?

0:38:06 > 0:38:09I thought Magnum Bonum was the Home Secretary.

0:38:09 > 0:38:11THEY LAUGH

0:38:12 > 0:38:14Are you a suffragist, Miss Lane?

0:38:16 > 0:38:17I'm a Suffragette, yes.

0:38:17 > 0:38:19Active?

0:38:19 > 0:38:22Well, it wasn't me who placed the bomb under the coronation chair,

0:38:22 > 0:38:24if that's what you're asking.

0:38:24 > 0:38:27We all heard it in the House. McKenna was speaking...

0:38:27 > 0:38:28The Home Secretary.

0:38:28 > 0:38:31- ..and to his very great credit... - No, thank you.

0:38:31 > 0:38:33..he continued with his speech.

0:38:34 > 0:38:37Would you give such women the vote?

0:38:37 > 0:38:40Is she less worthy of the vote than the drunkard who has it now?

0:38:40 > 0:38:43Or the wife beater who can vote?

0:38:43 > 0:38:47Politics, politics. This is a home, not a public place.

0:38:47 > 0:38:49Is it?

0:38:49 > 0:38:50Thank you.

0:38:54 > 0:38:58In women alone rests the preservation of peace in the home.

0:38:58 > 0:39:02And it's that peace which inspires work all across the Empire.

0:39:03 > 0:39:06The Suffragettes are reckless and foolish.

0:39:06 > 0:39:08- Reckless and foolish. - Like Miss Davison.

0:39:08 > 0:39:10Hm.

0:39:10 > 0:39:11I admired Emily Davison.

0:39:11 > 0:39:14And what is it you admired in her?

0:39:14 > 0:39:15Her bravery.

0:39:15 > 0:39:17But courage isn't always a virtue,

0:39:17 > 0:39:21and the consequences of courage are not always virtuous.

0:39:21 > 0:39:24Does it serve your cause, I wonder?

0:39:24 > 0:39:26I wonder.

0:39:26 > 0:39:28What do you mean?

0:39:28 > 0:39:33Well, should one give the vote to people who hurl themselves in front of horses?

0:39:33 > 0:39:38Drunkards and wife beaters, people who run in front of horses,

0:39:38 > 0:39:41you defeat your own argument, Miss Lane.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43But I do have you talking politics, Lady Allingham.

0:39:43 > 0:39:46Miss Lane. Lady Allingham.

0:39:48 > 0:39:52Emily Davison was an hysteric with an uncommon zeal

0:39:52 > 0:39:53for harming herself.

0:39:53 > 0:39:56Martyrdom was her only aim in life.

0:39:56 > 0:39:59And I for one am happy that she has satisfied her ambition.

0:40:00 > 0:40:05But I have lost any interest I had in her because the attention

0:40:05 > 0:40:11of all right thinking men, people, women, must be on what is coming.

0:40:11 > 0:40:13What is coming?

0:40:16 > 0:40:18What is coming?

0:40:19 > 0:40:22War, Caro.

0:40:23 > 0:40:25War, baby.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28What do we think of that?

0:40:28 > 0:40:30Hey? What do you think of that?

0:40:37 > 0:40:40Boot production. I have plans.

0:40:40 > 0:40:42Oh, do you?

0:40:44 > 0:40:47I'm going to make boots with flaps over the lace-holes

0:40:47 > 0:40:51and double tongues so no water can enter.

0:40:51 > 0:40:55I think three years would be the life of such a boot and then...

0:40:58 > 0:41:02..at the end of the three years, we'd clump it.

0:41:02 > 0:41:05That's another leather sole riveted on,

0:41:05 > 0:41:08which would give the life of the boot another two years.

0:41:08 > 0:41:11Oh, how interesting. Why are you telling us all this?

0:41:16 > 0:41:19Your opinion would be valuable to me.

0:41:19 > 0:41:21Oh, how, how valuable?

0:41:21 > 0:41:23I've been led to believe the business classes

0:41:23 > 0:41:26have a reputation for straight talking, Mr Hankin.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29Oh, politics and business, all in one lunchtime.

0:41:29 > 0:41:31I think it's my fault, Lady Allingham.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33The men have followed our lead.

0:41:35 > 0:41:39She's a Methodist, Atherton. They don't.

0:41:50 > 0:41:53All six of them plague victims, all under ten years old.

0:41:53 > 0:41:56All died within three weeks of each other.

0:41:56 > 0:41:58July 1682.

0:41:58 > 0:42:00Why are you showing me this?

0:42:00 > 0:42:05Herbert, Richard, Harold, Beatrice, Elizabeth and George.

0:42:05 > 0:42:07Another George.

0:42:07 > 0:42:09They're my family.

0:42:11 > 0:42:13We belong here.

0:42:15 > 0:42:17Why up here?

0:42:17 > 0:42:19No burials in the churchyard.

0:42:19 > 0:42:22They thought the dead could contaminate the living.

0:42:23 > 0:42:28She carried her dead children up here to put them in the ground.

0:42:28 > 0:42:30That picture...

0:42:32 > 0:42:33It's in all of my dreams.

0:42:59 > 0:43:00Who?

0:43:00 > 0:43:03George Allingham. Alone.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06Kissing.

0:43:15 > 0:43:18Father? Father?

0:43:23 > 0:43:25Father.

0:43:31 > 0:43:33Is the bank holiday over?

0:43:38 > 0:43:39Yes, it is.

0:44:16 > 0:44:17SHE SOBS

0:44:27 > 0:44:29We might get dirty.

0:44:44 > 0:44:47All pals together, Paul says.

0:44:49 > 0:44:50And Joe?

0:44:50 > 0:44:52Yes.

0:45:02 > 0:45:04Can I listen?

0:45:07 > 0:45:08THEY GIGGLE

0:45:14 > 0:45:16Arnold Hankin proposed to me.

0:45:16 > 0:45:18No. No! Have you said yes?

0:45:18 > 0:45:20I told him I'd give him the answer tomorrow.

0:45:20 > 0:45:22He's an ambitious man, Mr Hankin.

0:45:22 > 0:45:25You'll want to be careful, Martha.

0:45:25 > 0:45:28You don't want to end up one of the great un-enjoyed.

0:45:34 > 0:45:35Whoa!

0:45:54 > 0:45:56Your belly.

0:45:56 > 0:45:57Why?

0:45:59 > 0:46:00I don't know.

0:46:17 > 0:46:21How will he fare in his old man's chair if he doesn't have a go?

0:46:21 > 0:46:24What's that? That's not you.

0:46:24 > 0:46:27Where the bloody hell did you pick that up?

0:46:27 > 0:46:29We can...

0:47:02 > 0:47:05What am I if I can't give that to you?
