0:00:04 > 0:00:11This programme contains some strong language
0:01:13 > 0:01:14He's going to speak again.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21And when he does, he'll tell us why he was there.
0:01:21 > 0:01:22And what he saw.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27He wanted nothing to do with the trespass,
0:01:27 > 0:01:29so why would he even be there?
0:01:29 > 0:01:30I don't know.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Right, ready?
0:01:47 > 0:01:48Easy...
0:01:52 > 0:01:53That's it.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Try and put these in order.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16Start at the beginning.
0:02:57 > 0:02:58Here.
0:03:00 > 0:03:05My father came to see me. He is being relocated.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09So I'll finish this and then I'll be leaving the village.
0:03:14 > 0:03:15Sit with me.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33The day before I came here, I saw an old man
0:03:33 > 0:03:37and an old lady sitting on a bench on the station platform.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39They didn't know each other.
0:03:41 > 0:03:46I wanted to pick up her hand and put it in his.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49But you didn't.
0:03:49 > 0:03:50I did.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54What happened?
0:03:54 > 0:03:57They got on the train. He helped her up onto the carriage.
0:04:01 > 0:04:02Happy ever after.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04What is it, Bert?
0:04:05 > 0:04:07I want my father back.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14He's getting better. Isn't he?
0:04:19 > 0:04:25I, I want him back and...I don't want him back.
0:04:26 > 0:04:27I don't understand.
0:04:27 > 0:04:28Ask my mother.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Bert?
0:04:33 > 0:04:34I don't know what you're saying.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36But I know that your mother is a good woman.
0:04:42 > 0:04:43I'd better go.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55This is your home now.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57You can be yourself here.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58You've...
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Oh. Yes, er... Off duty.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Give me that. You go on up.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10FOOTSTEPS ON STAIRS
0:05:11 > 0:05:14You remember Joy? Married love.
0:05:14 > 0:05:15Advice on, er...
0:05:25 > 0:05:26'It's all upside down.'
0:05:27 > 0:05:29The world.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32She's gone, you know, Martha, wretched woman.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36And to think she's teaching our children!
0:05:36 > 0:05:40Count the horrors. It's a plague of scandals.
0:05:40 > 0:05:45Try to think of them as embarrassments or awkwardnesses, Mother.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48My son in bed with a housemaid in a public house.
0:05:48 > 0:05:53A divorce case looming, the humiliation of that trial.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55- Awkwardnesses, Edmund? - Well, I think George...
0:05:55 > 0:05:58The sex instinct is powerful and, and, and, and it's, it's
0:05:58 > 0:06:03wholesome, but when it's misaligned the consequences are terrible.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- Mother.- And there's too much misalignment in this house.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11I mean, look to yourself, Edmund.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Homosex is filthy and perverted, is it not?
0:06:18 > 0:06:22When the urge comes, can't you just...think of something else?
0:06:24 > 0:06:25Such as?
0:06:29 > 0:06:30Me?
0:06:32 > 0:06:34SHE CHUCKLES
0:06:41 > 0:06:42HE LAUGHS
0:06:44 > 0:06:45Please.
0:06:48 > 0:06:49Please.
0:06:49 > 0:06:50You want an heir.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54You already have one.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56My son.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00Oh.
0:07:02 > 0:07:03Mother?
0:07:04 > 0:07:08Look, there is no such child.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10There will be no divorce,
0:07:10 > 0:07:12and you will give me a grandchild.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Why don't you want children?
0:07:34 > 0:07:36They make me think about death.
0:07:36 > 0:07:37Death?
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Well, they come after us.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42They move us along the shelf, closer to the big drop at the end.
0:07:43 > 0:07:48But they're the part of us that we leave behind when we're gone.
0:07:48 > 0:07:49Bloodline, Harry.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54I want to live a deep, full life, I don't want a child in my way
0:07:54 > 0:07:56and I don't want to think about afterwards.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59I want to dance, all the way along the shelf,
0:07:59 > 0:08:02and then fall off still dancing.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05- What are you talking about? - 20th century.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Well, I won't have it. - I don't think you have a choice.
0:08:08 > 0:08:09My children are in pain!
0:08:09 > 0:08:12And each of them has been hurt by modern times.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14I'm not going to stand by and watch them suffer.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15What are you going to do?
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Save them!
0:08:17 > 0:08:18Who first?
0:08:21 > 0:08:23George, I think.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25May I make a suggestion?
0:08:27 > 0:08:29That we pay a visit to Martha.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33Wicked Martha.
0:08:37 > 0:08:38DOOR OPENS
0:08:38 > 0:08:39Bairstow?
0:08:45 > 0:08:47What the hell do you want?
0:08:47 > 0:08:48Your help.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53HE CHUCKLES
0:08:53 > 0:08:55With what?
0:08:55 > 0:08:56A reservoir.
0:08:58 > 0:08:59The blue.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06The village?
0:09:08 > 0:09:10The village!
0:09:10 > 0:09:12You want to flood the village?!
0:09:12 > 0:09:13Dirty water kills.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Sheffield has dirty water.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21People die because they don't have clean water.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23This reservoir would give it to them.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28There are some things sacred and beyond argument.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31This land, our heritage, our history.
0:09:32 > 0:09:33You can't touch any of them.
0:09:36 > 0:09:37Goodbye, Mr Gibby.
0:09:45 > 0:09:46DOOR OPENS AND SHUTS
0:09:50 > 0:09:53You teach them hopscotch, I hear.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Mrs Allingham wasn't available?
0:09:57 > 0:09:58No.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00No. Otherwise engaged, no doubt.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04Well, why don't you show us?
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Hmm?
0:10:07 > 0:10:14Hopscotch. I don't think I can remember how.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17But you, it seems, have a talent for teaching the fairer sex
0:10:17 > 0:10:18how to hop about,
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Mr... I don't know what to call you.
0:10:21 > 0:10:25My daughter-in-law's special friend.
0:10:25 > 0:10:29Or...Mrs Allingham's gentleman companion. Or...
0:10:29 > 0:10:30He's my lover.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33No more lies and half truths.
0:10:33 > 0:10:34Martha.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Let her hear it. Let everyone hear it, because it's true.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39There's been too much not talking.
0:10:41 > 0:10:46Well, one consequence of your... talking...
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Harriet, why don't you tell them?
0:10:49 > 0:10:52For the law to allow a divorce there has to be an innocent party
0:10:52 > 0:10:54and a guilty party.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57George with the maid in The Lamb - not innocent.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59You with Mr Eyre -
0:10:59 > 0:11:00not innocent.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Two guilty parties.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05No divorce without a victim, I'm afraid, Mrs Allingham.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11We'll see you back at the house.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15George is waiting.
0:11:17 > 0:11:18BELLS CHIME
0:11:20 > 0:11:21MURMUR OF CONVERSATION
0:11:21 > 0:11:22Hello.
0:11:26 > 0:11:27INAUDIBLE
0:11:50 > 0:11:51What did your father do?
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Why?
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Just asking.
0:11:57 > 0:11:58No, you're not.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02You don't like it when it's you being asked the questions, do you?
0:12:04 > 0:12:05I wonder why that is.
0:12:09 > 0:12:10He died young.
0:12:10 > 0:12:11How young?
0:12:12 > 0:12:14I was a baby.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16What did he die from?
0:12:16 > 0:12:17What do you want, Gibby?
0:12:19 > 0:12:22He listens to you, Allingham, doesn't he?
0:12:22 > 0:12:24It's my job.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Is that it? Is that all?
0:12:26 > 0:12:30Because this reservoir would mean the difference between
0:12:30 > 0:12:32life and death to the poor families of Sheffield.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Remember who you are.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41He didn't have the courage
0:12:41 > 0:12:43to come back for the trial. Oh, no.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Fancy speeches leading the people on and disappears
0:12:46 > 0:12:48when the going gets tough.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50So why is he here now?
0:12:51 > 0:12:53I don't pretend to know but I think
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Grace Middleton just might be the person to ask.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57- Yes.- Don't you?
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Er, how can I help you?
0:13:02 > 0:13:04I'll have a banana.
0:13:04 > 0:13:05- One banana?- Please.
0:13:09 > 0:13:10Er, please don't do that.
0:13:10 > 0:13:11What?
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Eating in a public place.
0:13:18 > 0:13:19Oh, well done, Agnes.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21Thank you.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24And you are a very lucky girl.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Imagine having a grandmother with a shop!
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Does Granny give you gobstoppers?
0:13:28 > 0:13:30I may be a grandmother!
0:13:31 > 0:13:33But I am also with child.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42Norma, have I just heard right?
0:13:42 > 0:13:43Yes...
0:13:46 > 0:13:47I'm going to be a mother.
0:13:49 > 0:13:50Come here!
0:13:53 > 0:13:55Come here!
0:13:57 > 0:14:00Ah, we're going to have a baby!
0:14:07 > 0:14:11Remember when you said that you could swim to the other side
0:14:11 > 0:14:13and Edmund said you couldn't?
0:14:13 > 0:14:15And you did.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19Another time.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22Well, I wanted to swim after you, but Mother wouldn't let me.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09CHICKENS CLUCK
0:15:37 > 0:15:38Hello?
0:15:47 > 0:15:49FOOTSTEPS ON STAIRS
0:15:57 > 0:15:58It's been ten years.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02I try to imagine what he would look now if I could remember what
0:16:02 > 0:16:04he looked like when he was a baby,
0:16:04 > 0:16:09but I can't, I can't picture my own son, then or now.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13His eyes, maybe. What about the colour of his eyes?
0:16:18 > 0:16:19His hair?
0:16:22 > 0:16:24I can't remember, but I want him back.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29- Well, could you not find him? - They won't tell me where he is.
0:16:29 > 0:16:30You could find out.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34Erm, there must be records and a woman in your position...
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Date of birth, name...
0:16:39 > 0:16:41I, I don't know his name.
0:16:43 > 0:16:47My family never mentioned him and I'm not allowed to speak about him.
0:16:47 > 0:16:48He doesn't exist.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51So I promised myself I wouldn't say his name out loud
0:16:51 > 0:16:53until I can say it to him.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59Why did you come now?
0:16:59 > 0:17:03I just wanted to make sure that you would want to see him.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05See him?
0:17:05 > 0:17:08There isn't a day goes by without me longing to see him.
0:17:11 > 0:17:17There's a bond between a mother and her child that does not break.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20Doesn't matter who wants to break it or why - it cannot...
0:17:20 > 0:17:22It will not be broken.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25A mother has no choice in that.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29It's there - deeper than memory.
0:17:32 > 0:17:36I'm sorry, I'm not helping you. I don't know how to help.
0:17:36 > 0:17:37Oh, you have.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05George is saved. I was brilliant.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07It'll be me next.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15Darlings, you missed your honeymoon.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18Caro!
0:18:18 > 0:18:19I want my son back.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23- She's overwrought. - What's the answer to her question?
0:18:23 > 0:18:25I think it's best for everyone if we let that one lie.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28Everyone, meaning you. Is it best for Caro?
0:18:28 > 0:18:30It's in the best interests of the child.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33An illegitimate child doesn't want to know he's illegitimate,
0:18:33 > 0:18:34does he?
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Very probably he's a degenerate.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40Why? Because his mother is?
0:18:40 > 0:18:43Passed on from slut mother to bastard son.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Don't you ever speak about my sister like that! Ever again!
0:18:45 > 0:18:49It's what you were saying - only you dress it up in fine words.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51What are you frightened it'll be?
0:18:51 > 0:18:53An invert, or a hypocrite?
0:18:53 > 0:18:57Or both? Oh, no, no, then he'd be you, wouldn't he,
0:18:57 > 0:18:58Home Secretary?
0:19:02 > 0:19:04You're forgetting yourself, Bairstow.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Might be worth remembering where you came from and where
0:19:06 > 0:19:07I could send you back to.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11The Mission Of Hope. Speak to the woman who runs it.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13And test the tightness of their security.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24I'm starting to think that you're unbeatable.
0:19:24 > 0:19:25Thank you.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28I don't know what to do.
0:19:28 > 0:19:29Resign.
0:19:31 > 0:19:32Give up.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34I've won.
0:19:34 > 0:19:35DOOR OPENS
0:19:37 > 0:19:39Martha? What is it?
0:19:42 > 0:19:44- The law.- What about it?
0:19:44 > 0:19:47It says there'll be no divorce.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49It insists that a marriage that nobody
0:19:49 > 0:19:53apart from Lady Allingham wants must carry on.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56I'm trapped.
0:20:00 > 0:20:01No, you're not.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07Go. Just go somewhere.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11Anywhere. Leave the village and the Allinghams far behind you.
0:20:13 > 0:20:19Five, four, three, two, one.
0:20:21 > 0:20:22Good.
0:20:26 > 0:20:27I'm sorry.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39HE TRIES TO SPEAK
0:20:42 > 0:20:44Again?
0:20:44 > 0:20:46INDISTINCT
0:20:52 > 0:20:54INDISTINCT
0:21:03 > 0:21:04Buh.
0:21:04 > 0:21:05Good.
0:21:08 > 0:21:09Muh.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Good.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14Fuh.
0:21:16 > 0:21:17Good.
0:21:18 > 0:21:19Mother.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54Talk to me.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57You saw it.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01His anger with her. And...
0:22:02 > 0:22:04And he wouldn't even try to...
0:22:05 > 0:22:06To what?
0:22:06 > 0:22:08To say it.
0:22:08 > 0:22:09To say what?
0:22:09 > 0:22:10Her name!
0:22:13 > 0:22:15He wouldn't say her name, Phoebe.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Is she a repeater?
0:22:30 > 0:22:32I'm sorry?
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Four or five times some of our mothers come back to us.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38No, she's not a repeater.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41And I didn't ask you here to give me a lesson on morality.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43Oh.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46Not my cup of fucking tea, frankly, Mrs Winkworth.
0:22:47 > 0:22:48Why am I here?
0:22:53 > 0:22:55What if a mother wants her child back?
0:22:56 > 0:23:00What if she's changed her mind about giving it up?
0:23:00 > 0:23:03You will understand we have to guarantee to adopting parents
0:23:03 > 0:23:05that a natural mother will not...

0:34:52 > 0:34:54You don't remember me.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56Bert Middleton. What's your question, Bert?
0:34:56 > 0:34:58Why would you remember me?
0:34:58 > 0:35:00A boxer like you - of course I remember you.
0:35:02 > 0:35:05How's your father doing? Has he spoken?
0:35:05 > 0:35:06Not really.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08I'm sorry.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13Actually, he has started to speak.
0:35:13 > 0:35:18Good. Good. And what did the doctor say?
0:35:18 > 0:35:21He might recover full speech.
0:35:23 > 0:35:24Well, that's wonderful.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27Then we'll know about his memory.
0:35:27 > 0:35:31He'll be able to tell us what happened that day. And why.
0:35:33 > 0:35:35Very good.
0:35:36 > 0:35:38So, have you got a question, Bert?
0:35:39 > 0:35:40No.
0:36:28 > 0:36:30- Night, girls.- See you, Margaret.
0:36:31 > 0:36:34Now if I were a gossip, the first thing I'd want to know is,
0:36:34 > 0:36:37has Bill Gibby been up to Middleton Farm to see John Middleton?
0:36:37 > 0:36:39No, he hasn't, Norma.
0:36:39 > 0:36:40Hmm, then I'd want to know why not.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42If you were a gossip.
0:36:42 > 0:36:46John Middleton got his brain bashed in on Bill Gibby's protest lark
0:36:46 > 0:36:47and he hasn't been to see him?
0:36:47 > 0:36:49Why not?
0:36:49 > 0:36:51Probably because he doesn't want to give you
0:36:51 > 0:36:53any more feed for your gossip!
0:36:58 > 0:36:59Right, then.
0:37:01 > 0:37:02Where are you going?
0:37:02 > 0:37:03The Lamb.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08Norma Hankin is too stupid to do you any harm.
0:37:09 > 0:37:14It's the men looking into their pint pots, muttering darkly.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17They're the danger.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19You're a good friend, Margaret Boden.
0:37:23 > 0:37:25I've watched you grow into yourself, Grace.
0:37:26 > 0:37:30You've said things that I never even knew that I thought
0:37:30 > 0:37:31till I heard you say them.
0:37:33 > 0:37:38I'll always be your friend, but I need you to carry on talking.
0:37:40 > 0:37:44Oh, don't look at me like that.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47You'll have us both crying in the street and then where will we be?

0:38:09 > 0:38:11- will be heard by me.- All right!
0:38:11 > 0:38:15And if you can't say it in my hearing then it ain't worth
0:38:15 > 0:38:16the breath that it come out on.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18I'm all ears!
0:38:18 > 0:38:20It's a bit more than ears, Margaret.
0:38:20 > 0:38:21LAUGHTER
0:38:24 > 0:38:29So much more, ducky. So much more.
0:38:37 > 0:38:38Can I talk to you for a minute?
0:38:40 > 0:38:42Just for a minute.
0:38:43 > 0:38:44Up here.
0:38:47 > 0:38:48Is John getting better?
0:38:48 > 0:38:50Yes.
0:38:52 > 0:38:53Cos Bert, he, er...
0:38:53 > 0:38:55- Bert?- He came to the meeting and he seemed...
0:38:55 > 0:38:57What meeting? Why are you here?
0:38:59 > 0:39:02It would cause me terrible political embarrassment if...
0:39:02 > 0:39:04If what?
0:39:04 > 0:39:06If your husband or your son were to say anything about you and me.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09Nothing happened.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12But your husband suspects and your son came to my meeting
0:39:12 > 0:39:15and looked at me like he'd kill me given half a chance.
0:39:15 > 0:39:17Why are you here?
0:39:17 > 0:39:19CHATTER
0:39:19 > 0:39:21She made me an offer.
0:39:22 > 0:39:23Spit it out, Alf!
0:39:26 > 0:39:31When the Middletons were in debt to me, she offered to pay me in kind.
0:39:31 > 0:39:33That's a lie.
0:39:33 > 0:39:37Beer tent, day of the boxing - she came and found me.
0:39:39 > 0:39:42- Let's go.- What?
0:39:42 > 0:39:46You can put it to her, face-to-face like a man!
0:39:46 > 0:39:49LAUGHTER
0:39:49 > 0:39:53What's the matter, Alf? Have you lost your nerve?

0:40:43 > 0:40:46- Right here.- The village?
0:40:46 > 0:40:49The people of Sheffield need clean drinking water, the slums...
0:40:49 > 0:40:51You're going to drown the village?

0:43:58 > 0:44:00- I don't know.- Won't or can't?
0:44:00 > 0:44:01But why do you think?
0:44:01 > 0:44:03Eat up, Mary.
0:44:03 > 0:44:05Mother?
0:44:05 > 0:44:09I don't know. Why are you attacking me, Bert?
0:44:09 > 0:44:10Was I?
0:44:10 > 0:44:13I'm your mother and you may well be doing the job that your father
0:44:13 > 0:44:17used to do, but you are still my son!
0:44:17 > 0:44:20And I will not have you speak to me like that!

0:45:09 > 0:45:10That's all she ever asked of me.
0:45:12 > 0:45:13You won't ever see me again.
0:45:18 > 0:45:22You have to work out who to trust and love.
0:45:24 > 0:45:26And then you have to trust and love them.

0:53:54 > 0:53:59I have been tempted away from home by excitement and passion...
0:54:01 > 0:54:03..both of which are a part of politics.
0:54:05 > 0:54:09It is a great temptation to let passion take over your life
0:54:09 > 0:54:11but that would be to forget
0:54:11 > 0:54:17and betray all that is at the heart of what REALLY matters.
0:54:18 > 0:54:25It has become clear to me that it is my home, my family, MY village,
0:54:25 > 0:54:30and all of those that live here are what I really care about.
0:54:30 > 0:54:36And I hope I judge you right when I say THIS is OUR fight
0:54:36 > 0:54:42and as long as we have breath in our bodies this will be our village!
0:54:42 > 0:54:44APPLAUSE AND CHEERS
0:54:55 > 0:54:59We may be small but we will be heard
0:54:59 > 0:55:04and what we say will echo over these hills and far beyond
0:55:04 > 0:55:08so that in years to come people will say, "That was a voice.
0:55:08 > 0:55:11"There was a village that filled its lungs
0:55:11 > 0:55:13"and called out for what it stood for."
0:55:13 > 0:55:17And if those who want to drown us think they can do it,
0:55:17 > 0:55:21then they do not understand
0:55:21 > 0:55:24and they will never understand
0:55:24 > 0:55:28who we are and what we can be together.
0:55:28 > 0:55:30APPLAUSE
0:55:55 > 0:55:56Phoebe!
0:56:17 > 0:56:18John.

0:57:40 > 0:57:41Yeah.
0:57:48 > 0:57:49Will you marry me?
0:57:56 > 0:57:57No.
