0:00:02 > 0:00:06- She keeps picking at the same scab. - Do you blame her? - The queer thing? You had no inkling?
0:00:06 > 0:00:09- Somebody had to be the last to know. - His family haven't a clue.
0:00:09 > 0:00:10Evacuate the area!
0:00:10 > 0:00:11I'll be a safe harbour.
0:00:11 > 0:00:15I'll never let anyone ever hurt you again.
0:00:15 > 0:00:17I need somewhere to stay, until the heat is off.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20If they trace you back here - The house is full of people, Connor.
0:00:20 > 0:00:23- Sure, they're your family now. I'm sorry I bothered you.- Connor!
0:00:23 > 0:00:26'The victim has been identified as Connor O'Donnell,
0:00:26 > 0:00:28'he'd been shot in the head.'
0:00:28 > 0:00:29Jack?
0:00:29 > 0:00:31Jack!
0:00:31 > 0:00:34If I needed further proof of my total irrelevance to you,
0:00:34 > 0:00:37today was it. It's over.
0:00:37 > 0:00:38You're like an addict.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41Even though you know your addiction will destroy you, you can't say no.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43He's your fatal flaw.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45(Victor got past it, why can't she?)
0:00:45 > 0:00:47He started again, found somebody else.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50Charlie's still stuck in that place.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54BUZZER RINGS
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Come on. Bloody thing.
0:02:12 > 0:02:13Who is it?
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Just the skip man.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25It's changed a bit, the old area.
0:02:26 > 0:02:27Yep.
0:02:27 > 0:02:31Did you ever come back here? After that last time.
0:02:34 > 0:02:35You?
0:02:35 > 0:02:37Never return to the scene of the crime.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41You know Lilly still claims she doesn't know why she did it?
0:02:41 > 0:02:42Or won't admit why.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Isn't this hard enough, Alan?
0:02:47 > 0:02:50What's done is done. Let it go.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Here.
0:02:52 > 0:02:53Oh, thanks.
0:02:59 > 0:03:00Ah!
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Oh.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50PHONE BUZZES
0:03:52 > 0:03:54Talk So, Features.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56'Guess who?'
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Sorry to hassle you at work, I've, erm,
0:03:58 > 0:04:01I've no other number for you, these days.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05Did you get that message from Alan about everyone hooking up tonight?
0:04:05 > 0:04:06Lilly rang, yes.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Doesn't take an Einstein to work out why, eh?
0:04:08 > 0:04:12Such insight. What did you do with the real Jack Walsh?
0:04:15 > 0:04:16How have you been?
0:04:16 > 0:04:20The World Service, how's all that going?
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Plugging away. You?
0:04:22 > 0:04:23Ditto.
0:04:26 > 0:04:27Best round the others up.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32Be good to see you again, Charlie.
0:04:35 > 0:04:36Ditto.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39PHONE GOES DEAD
0:05:14 > 0:05:15Oh.
0:05:20 > 0:05:21Thank you.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Oh, er, keep it.
0:05:27 > 0:05:28Keep it.
0:05:30 > 0:05:34For you. It's for you.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- Standard, please.- Here you go, love.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54'Shadow Northern Ireland Secretary Airey Neave

0:06:15 > 0:06:18What's the deal with meeting Alan tonight, any idea?
0:06:18 > 0:06:21All I got was the message he left for me at the clinic.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23I picked up your suit from the dry cleaners.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29And ironed your shirts.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31And your post's on the table, over there.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57Oh.
0:06:57 > 0:06:58Excuse me.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Why don't I save you the bother, eh?

0:07:31 > 0:07:33Hey!
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- These two reprobates you know. - Hiya.- Hey.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40And this is Alan.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44Is it me, or are they getting younger and younger?
0:07:44 > 0:07:48This is Lilly. They used to flatshare with us.
0:07:49 > 0:07:50Last but not least...
0:07:54 > 0:07:56No, actually, he's last.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59Excuse me, I'm just going to say hello to the others.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01- Lilly.- Hey.- How are you?
0:08:01 > 0:08:05- I'm good.- Lovely to see you. Charlotte.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09- Victor.- Hi.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Right, here we are.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14Jack.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Jay, sit yourself down.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18KNOCK ON THE TABLE
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Well, erm, now that the whole clan is here...
0:08:21 > 0:08:23..and you, er...
0:08:26 > 0:08:30I finally got her to do the deed and say yes.
0:08:30 > 0:08:31We're getting hitched.
0:08:31 > 0:08:36- Oh.- Congratulations. - Thank you very much.- Well done.
0:08:36 > 0:08:37Very happy.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39When? When? Where?
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Six weeks and four days.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44It's just a registry office thing, you know, nothing over the top.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46We'll have to celebrate it
0:08:46 > 0:08:47It's only a piece of paper.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50We're only doing it so we can get a mortgage.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54The romance of it(!)
0:08:54 > 0:08:56Be the patter of ankle-biters next.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59Dirty nappies and sleepless nights, yay(!)
0:08:59 > 0:09:02Somebody's got to preserve the species, Jack.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05- Well, good on you, man. - Thank you very much.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08ALL: Cheers!
0:09:08 > 0:09:11LAUGHTER
0:09:16 > 0:09:18And when the dust settles, as it will,
0:09:18 > 0:09:22and when the excitement of electioneering dies away,
0:09:22 > 0:09:24there is work to be done.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28'Mrs Thatcher had her election prospects boosted
0:09:28 > 0:09:30'by a recent MORI poll,
0:09:30 > 0:09:33'which gave the Conservatives a 10% lead over Labour.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36'However, when asked who would make the better Prime Minister,
0:09:36 > 0:09:39'nearly 10% expressed a preference for Mr...'
0:09:39 > 0:09:42- When was it Charlotte moved out? - Couple of years back.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49What's the story with you two, anyway?
0:09:49 > 0:09:50Just didn't pan out.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53She was into commitment.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02I'm on a deadline here, darling.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15TV VOLUME INCREASES
0:10:15 > 0:10:19Do I have to say it in bloody semaphore?
0:10:19 > 0:10:20I'm against the clock on this.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28TV VOLUME IS TURNED DOWN
0:11:47 > 0:11:49LAUGHTER
0:11:51 > 0:11:52Oh, please, God, not again.

0:11:57 > 0:12:01Come out, come out, wherever you are!
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Run. Run!
0:12:03 > 0:12:05There's one! Get the nonce!
0:12:46 > 0:12:49HE SOBS
0:12:49 > 0:12:53MUSIC: "London Calling" by The Clash
0:12:53 > 0:12:54'You don't have to go far to see
0:12:54 > 0:12:58'that Westminster's 800 dustmen are already being missed.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00'Rubbish is piled up against the wall
0:13:00 > 0:13:02'and it is certainly a potential hazard.'
0:13:02 > 0:13:04What were the papers I need to sign?
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Just your signature on an amendment to your trust fund
0:13:09 > 0:13:11from your grandfather.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14His solicitor is trustee, and he's retiring.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17Signature. Date.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26Oh, I caught a couple of your Tribune articles the other day.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29One on Nicaragua.
0:13:30 > 0:13:35And the other on the Russian threat in Afghanistan.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38I suppose it's too much to hope you'd write something
0:13:38 > 0:13:41about the carnage the unions are wreaking on the home front.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45Dear God, we've even got print unions who refuse to print copy
0:13:45 > 0:13:46they don't agree with!
0:13:46 > 0:13:51So you think it's down to Thatcher to lead us all to a brave new world?
0:13:51 > 0:13:54She alone can slay the dragon of the unions.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56It wasn't that long ago you thought she was a bloody joke.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58Yes, well, I...
0:14:00 > 0:14:02I underestimated her.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04She's not alone in that.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Yes, well, consensus politics is over
0:14:09 > 0:14:11and it's your lot that killed it.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14You know, when Margaret Thatcher walks into Downing Street,
0:14:14 > 0:14:19just remember it's your beloved left who held the door open for her.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24But I doubt that's something you want to write about either.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28(Much less admit to.)
0:14:29 > 0:14:32Just as well you have your trust fund, eh?
0:14:32 > 0:14:35Man cannot live by rage alone.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43DOOR SLAMS
0:15:05 > 0:15:06Jay, wait.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15What is it? Can I help?
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Try Punjabi.
0:15:20 > 0:15:21Erm...
0:15:22 > 0:15:26HE SPEAKS IN PUNJABI
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Do you think he might be hungry?
0:15:42 > 0:15:45We can't just walk away. There must be something we can do for him.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47It's not our problem. Come on.
0:15:49 > 0:15:50Come on.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04'Coming to speak to BBC Television News, Mr Thorpe.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06'Would you like to give your statement to us?'
0:16:06 > 0:16:10Only in this country can a queer on a murder charge
0:16:10 > 0:16:12be allowed to fight an election.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Well, he lost his seat and his reputation.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Guilty or not, he still got punished.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21You've not got a problem with it, do you?
0:16:21 > 0:16:22The gay thing.
0:16:24 > 0:16:25No.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29I-I find it...
0:16:29 > 0:16:30repugnant.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34All right? I'm not proud of that,
0:16:34 > 0:16:35but I do.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39You need to get a grip, man. I mean, really.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42Lilly says the same thing.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44God knows how she puts up with us, eh?
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Well, I thought you'd never ask.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02I know it's only a registry office job, but...
0:17:02 > 0:17:05well, I still need a best man, don't I?
0:17:06 > 0:17:07Oh, it's...
0:17:07 > 0:17:10No, it's just...you know.
0:17:12 > 0:17:13Don't know what to say.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18What if it's not enough for her, Vic?
0:17:21 > 0:17:24You know, me, marriage.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28See, ever since she gave up the painting,
0:17:28 > 0:17:30the teaching, it doesn't cut it.
0:17:30 > 0:17:31And...
0:17:31 > 0:17:34I'm hoping that...
0:17:34 > 0:17:38once we have our own home and...
0:17:38 > 0:17:41we have a family and...
0:17:43 > 0:17:44..that it will be enough.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49I mean, all those years waiting for her.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52And the idea of life without her.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56I'd have no life.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04Can I have two more?
0:18:16 > 0:18:19Erm, I'm off to get sandwiches.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23For lunch.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Any preferences?
0:18:25 > 0:18:27I've got a better idea.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Blimey.
0:18:41 > 0:18:42All change here.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47Right, what are we all having?
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Any sign of a thaw?
0:18:55 > 0:18:57Arctic winds prevail.
0:19:01 > 0:19:02Fine looking lads.
0:19:04 > 0:19:05Is that the wife?
0:19:05 > 0:19:10Sister. She came over from Jamaica for the ceremony.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13Ex-wife. Got divorced last year.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15We hung in until the boys went to uni.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21But as she said, there's no shame in admitting defeat.
0:19:21 > 0:19:22No.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26I got my boys, I got my work.
0:19:27 > 0:19:28More than most.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33You and Lilly, you stayed the course.
0:19:33 > 0:19:34A few bumps along the way.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39She secretly smokes, thinks I don't know.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44So you're flying solo?
0:19:44 > 0:19:45God, yes.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48I am so done with all that.
0:19:50 > 0:19:51Never say never.
0:20:01 > 0:20:06(CHARLOTTE) 'So, is it right, what Orla says - you're thinking about taking Silk?'
0:20:07 > 0:20:09'That's amazing, Victor.'
0:20:13 > 0:20:15And, uh...
0:20:15 > 0:20:18have you been seeing anyone since moving out?
0:20:19 > 0:20:21The occasional skirmish. Nothing, you know...
0:20:23 > 0:20:26Why didn't you get in contact after you left the flat, Charlie?
0:20:30 > 0:20:32I knew I'd disappointed you,
0:20:32 > 0:20:34not doing it before.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37That it took me so long to see the light.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43And you don't let it blind you again?
0:20:44 > 0:20:46That's one mistake I don't intend to repeat.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54'Good afternoon, Prime Minister.'
0:20:54 > 0:20:55Hello!
0:20:57 > 0:21:01And I would just like to remember some words of Francis of Assisi -
0:21:01 > 0:21:04"Where there is doubt, may we bring faith
0:21:04 > 0:21:07- "and where there's despair, may we bring hope."- A role model?
0:21:07 > 0:21:10- You're not bloody serious? - She's overcome all the odds,
0:21:10 > 0:21:12including the dissenters in her own party,
0:21:12 > 0:21:14proved women can aspire to anything we want -
0:21:14 > 0:21:16no more apologising for being ambitious.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Let me see if I've got this straight.
0:21:18 > 0:21:22She carries a female chromosome, so she's automatically furthered the feminist cause
0:21:22 > 0:21:25in spite of being on record that she owes nothing to women's lib,
0:21:25 > 0:21:29or the fact she's voted against every bill that might conceivably help women?
0:21:29 > 0:21:31If you weren't so blinded by your precious class struggle,
0:21:31 > 0:21:36- you'd see what she's achieved is something to celebrate! - Enough, before it ends in tears.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39I thought we're here to plan Alan and Lilly's wedding bash?
0:21:39 > 0:21:40They got distracted.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43You can't settle for Anna Ford or Angela Rippon, no,
0:21:43 > 0:21:46you have to have a vagina in Number 10 too to prove your point,
0:21:46 > 0:21:48regardless of her odious politics!
0:21:48 > 0:21:51You've never taken me seriously, have you?
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Not ever.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56Oh, yes, all else fails, let it degenerate into the personal.
0:21:56 > 0:21:57Face it, love,
0:21:57 > 0:22:00feminism has sod-all to do with her getting into Number 10.
0:22:00 > 0:22:05Your hallowed cause is no more than a stick to beat men with rather than face your own inadequacy!
0:22:07 > 0:22:09The word loser comes to mind.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Victor!
0:22:29 > 0:22:33She stands up for what she believes in. When was the last time you did that, Jack?
0:22:34 > 0:22:36If you ever humiliate her again,
0:22:36 > 0:22:39you will have me to answer to, do you hear me?
0:22:39 > 0:22:41DO YOU HEAR ME?!
0:22:41 > 0:22:43I hear you.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45Look. Look!
0:22:47 > 0:22:49There's only one loser around here.
0:23:21 > 0:23:22Stop!
0:23:23 > 0:23:25Stop, wait! Wait!
0:23:29 > 0:23:31You're coming with me.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34You...come with me.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54I'm just going to check it.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Make sure it's not infected.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05It has glass in it.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08My friend,
0:24:08 > 0:24:11a doctor who lives here, he can get that out.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15You'll be as right as rain once that's out.
0:24:20 > 0:24:21HE WINCES
0:24:21 > 0:24:23You know it's... Sorry.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28You know it's not just you they stop.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30The police. They're after drugs.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34They stop and search everyone these days who...
0:24:36 > 0:24:38..who's from a different culture.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44I'm wasting my breath, aren't I?
0:24:47 > 0:24:51OK, you take your clothes off
0:24:51 > 0:24:52and I'll wash them.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14No, don't bother with... Oh.
0:25:14 > 0:25:15Oh, OK.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Right, well, I'll take those to be cleaned
0:25:18 > 0:25:21and, um, get you some fresh clothes.

0:25:57 > 0:25:58< Yep?
0:26:04 > 0:26:06- I'm busy, Jack.- Hear me out, OK?
0:26:12 > 0:26:16I was an arsehole the other night.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18If I could take it back, I would.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Too little...and way too late.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23There's more.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31I've applied for selection as the Labour candidate in the by-election.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37Tough seat - the Tories won the past two elections there.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39It's a place to start.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41Or a lost cause.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43Well, then, we're made for each other.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49- You'll have to get clean.- I know.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51And stay that way.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57I have to make this work, Charlie.
0:27:01 > 0:27:02I'm ready for it now.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05I'm ready for a lot of things.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Anyway, what I came to say...
0:27:23 > 0:27:25You're wrong.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28What you said.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31I always took you seriously.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34That's what scared me.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55I've got someone staying a few days, if that's all right?
0:27:55 > 0:27:58He's been living rough on the streets. He has no English or..
0:28:00 > 0:28:03The police have been harassing him, Jack.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06He needs a roof until I can find him a hostel or somewhere else to stay.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11You're terminally nice, aren't you, Orla?
0:28:12 > 0:28:14Put us all to shame.
0:29:02 > 0:29:05Astrology's a big deal in our culture.
0:29:05 > 0:29:08I said our star signs are incompatible.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12- HE SCOFFS - This one, my father elbowed -
0:29:12 > 0:29:14her dowry was rubbish.
0:29:14 > 0:29:15Too thin.
0:29:15 > 0:29:16Too fat.
0:29:16 > 0:29:17Big gums.
0:29:19 > 0:29:20The latest...
0:29:23 > 0:29:27..over from Delhi with her family to view prospective husbands.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32Even if I rejected her too, my mother would never give up.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34It's her life mission to see me married.
0:29:37 > 0:29:39Well, if you told them the truth...
0:29:39 > 0:29:41why you can't marry any of them...?
0:29:41 > 0:29:44To Hindus, the sacred purpose of marriage is to procreate.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47Homosexual men can't do that -
0:29:47 > 0:29:50his very existence is a threat to the social order.
0:29:50 > 0:29:53He's treated like an outcast.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55Someone less than human.
0:29:58 > 0:30:01I told myself hit and run sex is where it's at.
0:30:02 > 0:30:04No ties, no trauma.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09I don't know, maybe it's just another place to hide.
0:30:23 > 0:30:27There's a thing we call Dharma. "That which is truth is Dharma".
0:30:29 > 0:30:31It means moral duty.
0:30:45 > 0:30:46Nice.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48It's rented.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51They had a dream of one day owning their own place, but...
0:30:52 > 0:30:57Just something else they sacrificed to get me through medical school.
0:30:57 > 0:30:58Is that your brother?
0:30:58 > 0:31:01I need him there to translate.
0:31:01 > 0:31:03My mother speaks no English,
0:31:03 > 0:31:05and my Punjabi's crap at the best of times.
0:31:11 > 0:31:13You don't have to tell them, Jay.
0:31:14 > 0:31:17A sin of omission can be less cruel than the truth.
0:31:19 > 0:31:20But sin nonetheless.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08Hello, Jack.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10I would say I happened to be passing
0:32:10 > 0:32:14but I think your finely-tuned shit detector would see through that.
0:32:22 > 0:32:26Sorry, I'm in the middle of something.
0:32:26 > 0:32:31So your mother said. She told me about your candidacy.
0:32:33 > 0:32:34Are you serious about it?
0:32:44 > 0:32:47The NEC approval of my name on the longlist.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49When's the shortlist due out?
0:32:49 > 0:32:52- Any day.- And do you have the necessary union backing?
0:32:52 > 0:32:55The TGWU signed up.
0:32:55 > 0:32:57Well, you'll need to broaden the base of that,
0:32:57 > 0:32:59get the Fabian Society behind you.
0:33:03 > 0:33:05Done and dusted.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14Nicotine.
0:33:17 > 0:33:22You'll have to show your face in the different wards in the constituency,
0:33:22 > 0:33:27press the flesh. The local candidate could prove a problem.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29Better the devil you know, etc.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32And of course your background will count against you too.
0:33:32 > 0:33:33You must be aware of that,
0:33:33 > 0:33:38not to mention the fact that I used to sit on the opposite benches.
0:33:38 > 0:33:40They'll be gunning for you on that too.
0:33:45 > 0:33:49One could almost mistake you for someone who cared, Father.
0:33:50 > 0:33:53It is possible to respect a man's commitment to a cause
0:33:53 > 0:33:55without sharing his politics.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59A trick you've yet to master.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02I'm working on it.
0:34:05 > 0:34:08In the end, it'll boil down to the interview,
0:34:08 > 0:34:10how you perform under pressure.
0:34:10 > 0:34:12They're bound to pull out all the stops on that.
0:34:17 > 0:34:22A lad from the street Orla's helping. The police were giving him grief.
0:34:22 > 0:34:26With good cause, if he's not here legally.
0:34:26 > 0:34:30Oh, Jack, now is not the time to play the Good Samaritan.
0:34:30 > 0:34:32Not when you've come so far.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36I'm at the end of a phone if you need me.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02RADIO CHATTER
0:35:20 > 0:35:23God, you're brave.
0:35:26 > 0:35:31- Right, shall we find a pub or go home?- Home.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59How goes it on the hostel front?
0:36:01 > 0:36:03Directly his foot is better, I'll get onto it.
0:36:06 > 0:36:08Not a problem, him staying, is it?
0:36:11 > 0:36:13We know nothing about him, do we?
0:36:13 > 0:36:16We know he needs help. Isn't that enough?
0:36:16 > 0:36:19I mean, we don't know his status.
0:36:19 > 0:36:21Status?
0:36:21 > 0:36:22If he's here legally or...
0:36:24 > 0:36:27I've this candidacy thing now, haven't I?
0:36:27 > 0:36:29I need to be cleaner than clean.
0:36:29 > 0:36:32Isn't the point of you going into politics so you can help people like him?
0:36:32 > 0:36:36Who are vulnerable, who need protection?
0:36:36 > 0:36:38Isn't that what you're always banging on about?
0:36:38 > 0:36:40I'm not saying turf him out on the street.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42Let the Sally Army look after him,
0:36:42 > 0:36:44that's what they're there for, isn't it?
0:36:44 > 0:36:47So I've got this straight, have I?
0:36:47 > 0:36:50All the people who you have over, all the women,
0:36:50 > 0:36:54the cooking I do for them, the cleaning up after them,
0:36:54 > 0:36:59one time, ONE TIME I ask to return the favour, this is what I get?!
0:36:59 > 0:37:01Come on, don't make me out to be the bad guy here.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03It's about the greater good.
0:37:03 > 0:37:06Sometimes we have to make tough choices.
0:37:06 > 0:37:07You mean I do.
0:37:29 > 0:37:32No rubbish in sight, is there?
0:37:32 > 0:37:34When the strike started, the Residents' Association got up
0:37:34 > 0:37:36a rota to take it to the dump.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39You can shut out all the troubles of the world here.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41Like a parallel universe.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52It's got everything we want, this, hasn't it?
0:37:52 > 0:37:55Everything we talked about, It's all on the list.
0:37:55 > 0:38:01This would be a perfect kids' room, wouldn't it, eh? Cot...
0:38:03 > 0:38:06South facing. Good for growing veg.

0:38:16 > 0:38:19If it's not what you want, Lilly, you've got to tell me.
0:38:19 > 0:38:22You've got to tell me. I'm not a mind reader, know what I mean?
0:38:22 > 0:38:27- Of course, of course.- We'll keep looking.- Of course it's what I want.
0:38:27 > 0:38:31I'm just... I'm just taking it all in, that's all.
0:38:36 > 0:38:37Do you, um...?
0:38:39 > 0:38:41Do you want to put in an offer?
0:38:45 > 0:38:48Sure? Yeah?

0:39:01 > 0:39:04Oh, no, no, no, no. Not here, not here, not here...
0:39:04 > 0:39:05< How are you doing up there?
0:39:05 > 0:39:07Won't be long.

0:39:57 > 0:39:59- < ORLA:- His name is Asif.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03He's from Afghanistan.
0:40:03 > 0:40:05There was some kind of uprising.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08He and his family got caught in the crossfire.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11His parents and sister were killed.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16He escaped through Pakistan into Turkey
0:40:16 > 0:40:19and stowed away on a container ship.
0:40:19 > 0:40:23He has an uncle in Germany, which is where he thinks he is now.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26I'll take him to the Afghan Embassy tomorrow,
0:40:26 > 0:40:29see if they can get him to Frankfurt.
0:40:31 > 0:40:32He'll be out of your hair.

0:43:40 > 0:43:43'It'll be a straight vote on a show of hands, no discussion.

0:43:51 > 0:43:54'Wait outside till you're called.'
0:44:09 > 0:44:12You came.
0:44:12 > 0:44:13Curiosity. Don't read anything into it.
0:44:13 > 0:44:16How are you feeling?
0:44:18 > 0:44:21Crapping myself, since you ask.
0:44:21 > 0:44:23You'll be fine.
0:44:23 > 0:44:26I feel like a different person.
0:44:26 > 0:44:30The person I'm supposed to be, if that makes any sense.
0:44:31 > 0:44:33Took your time getting there.
0:44:33 > 0:44:35Not there yet, am I?
0:44:35 > 0:44:37< Mr Walsh?
0:44:46 > 0:44:48Enjoy the show.
0:44:52 > 0:44:54'You live in London, Mr Walsh?'
0:44:56 > 0:44:59If I'm lucky enough to be selected, I'll move here to live, of course.
0:44:59 > 0:45:03As the son of a Viscount and all the privilege of that,
0:45:03 > 0:45:05how can you expect to win the votes
0:45:05 > 0:45:08of the working people in our constituency?
0:45:09 > 0:45:12I am here in spite of my background, not because of it.
0:45:15 > 0:45:19Since time immemorial, my family has been Conservative.
0:45:19 > 0:45:21I make no secret of it.
0:45:21 > 0:45:25But I hope the fact that I broke with that,
0:45:25 > 0:45:27turning my back on my family to stand for Labour,
0:45:27 > 0:45:32will be a symbol to the voters of the depth of my commitment.
0:45:33 > 0:45:36In your view, where was it we went wrong at the election?
0:45:39 > 0:45:41We... Um...
0:45:41 > 0:45:46What has the country to show from the last Labour Government?
0:45:47 > 0:45:53An economy riven by strikes, rising unemployment,
0:45:53 > 0:45:56in hock for billions...
0:45:56 > 0:45:57Add to that we...
0:46:03 > 0:46:08Add to that our Faustian pact with the Unions, you have your answer.
0:46:11 > 0:46:18We've devised a system where at party conference, one man,
0:46:18 > 0:46:21one single individual, can raise his hand
0:46:21 > 0:46:24and account for hundreds of thousands of votes.
0:46:24 > 0:46:28While our own rank and file members, like those of you here today,
0:46:28 > 0:46:31ordinary, decent working people,
0:46:31 > 0:46:36are excluded from having a voice in your own Party.
0:46:36 > 0:46:39As the Tories roll back the state with their draconian cuts,
0:46:39 > 0:46:42every man, woman and child in this country will pay
0:46:42 > 0:46:46the price for our failure to put our house in order.
0:46:46 > 0:46:52We've betrayed the very people who we're supposed to protect.
0:46:55 > 0:46:58In doing so, we've betrayed the moral values which define us.
0:47:02 > 0:47:04Until we're able to admit that failure,
0:47:04 > 0:47:08we'll remain not just unelected
0:47:08 > 0:47:11but unelectable for generations to come.

0:48:12 > 0:48:15Last week, the police rang in the middle of the night.
0:48:15 > 0:48:20She was in the street outside her flat, shouting obscenities at a neighbour.
0:48:20 > 0:48:24She thought he'd put a camera in the party wall to spy on her.
0:48:24 > 0:48:26Can her doctor not do something?
0:48:26 > 0:48:30Short of sectioning her again... And I can't let that happen.

0:50:22 > 0:50:24not for the want of trying.
0:50:27 > 0:50:32Oh, it's true, when she came down to London to do her art thing,
0:50:32 > 0:50:34I didn't get it.
0:50:34 > 0:50:38But then she's always followed her own star.
0:50:38 > 0:50:40And that's led her to him.
0:50:42 > 0:50:47I knew when she first brought him home that he'd do right by her.

0:53:44 > 0:53:46Hello?
0:53:48 > 0:53:51The police pulled Victor up on a stop and search.
0:53:51 > 0:53:54They found cocaine in your car.
0:53:54 > 0:53:57They're charging him with possession.
0:54:00 > 0:54:03You have to go there, Jack. Put it right.
0:54:07 > 0:54:10If I do, I'm screwed.
0:54:10 > 0:54:13I'm finished before I've even started!
0:54:13 > 0:54:16What about Victor? He'll be struck off!
0:54:16 > 0:54:19He could say they planted it. Be their word against his, won't it?
0:54:21 > 0:54:23You have to ask him, Charlie.
0:54:25 > 0:54:27Tell him what's at stake!
0:54:28 > 0:54:30He'd do it for you.
0:54:30 > 0:54:33What was it you said in your interview?
0:54:34 > 0:54:37About being defined by moral values?
0:54:39 > 0:54:41Bloody prove it, Jack.
0:54:56 > 0:54:58I'm here, aren't I? I proved it.
0:54:59 > 0:55:03You hesitated, Jack. You hesitated.
0:55:03 > 0:55:06Thank you very much, officer.
0:55:10 > 0:55:12Right, you have access to a telephone.
0:55:14 > 0:55:17I suggest you make a call and resign your candidacy
0:55:17 > 0:55:20before the press get hold of it.
0:55:20 > 0:55:22At least retain some modicum of dignity.
0:55:22 > 0:55:25- Dad...- There's nothing you have to say, Jack, that I want to hear.
0:55:25 > 0:55:28- Dad!- I've heard it all before!
0:55:30 > 0:55:33I'm not fool enough to fall for it again.
0:55:44 > 0:55:46I thought it best if I leave her there.
0:55:48 > 0:55:51I've made the bed up in Victor's old room if you fancy.
0:55:51 > 0:55:52Thanks, sweet.
0:55:52 > 0:55:54Night, night.

0:57:39 > 0:57:41- Help us detox him. - What? Lock him up?
0:57:41 > 0:57:45One foot outside this flat, he'll go straight back to his dealer and score.
0:57:45 > 0:57:47It's like a light's gone out, Charlie.
0:57:47 > 0:57:49Stop it! Stop it!
0:57:49 > 0:57:51- I want out of this shit of a life.- STOP!
0:57:51 > 0:57:52Houston, we have a problem.
0:57:55 > 0:57:58- I need you to help me get her admitted again. - I'm sorry, Miss Pugh.
0:57:58 > 0:58:00Then she'll have to be sectioned.
0:58:00 > 0:58:03What we have isn't enough for you, is it?
0:58:03 > 0:58:06- What happened to you? - A moment of weakness.
