0:27:35 > 0:27:40- I only mean you are English. - Do you think I sell dolls for fun?
0:27:40 > 0:27:43No, but it's money for the pocket. Julia?
0:27:43 > 0:27:48Many English don't have any money, you know. Most of them, in fact.
0:27:48 > 0:27:53- Uh?- Just because I'm English doesn't mean...- No problem.

0:28:31 > 0:28:35- Get lost!- You must help me to tell you. It is most important.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38So maybe you should tell the police.
0:28:38 > 0:28:43Oh, no, no, no. Nothing could possibly be that bad.
0:28:43 > 0:28:44Please.
0:28:47 > 0:28:48Well?
0:28:50 > 0:28:54- You will never have a husband. - That bad, huh?

0:39:50 > 0:39:53They live in a mosque,
0:39:53 > 0:39:56they pray all day, and they never go out.
0:39:56 > 0:40:01- Well, she can't cos she's married to Bilal.- Mum's married to our dad.

0:40:28 > 0:40:32The annihilation of the ego.

0:41:06 > 0:41:07Hi, girls.
0:41:09 > 0:41:15- It is from the hotel. - The hotel?!- Have you been there?
0:41:15 > 0:41:17Yes.
0:41:17 > 0:41:20I had a job...with horses.
0:41:20 > 0:41:25- Can we go there for a ride? - It is nothing. Useless plastic.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28- Please!- Please!- NO!
0:41:28 > 0:41:30OK?
0:41:30 > 0:41:31I said no!
0:41:33 > 0:41:35It is a bad place!
0:41:43 > 0:41:45That's the last of it.
0:41:47 > 0:41:52- We've got to reprovide. - I suppose someone has to.
0:41:52 > 0:41:54# You can say the sun is shining if you really want to
0:41:54 > 0:41:57# I can see the moon and it seems so clear
0:41:57 > 0:42:01# You can take the road that takes you to the stars now
0:42:01 > 0:42:03# I can take a road that'll see me through
0:42:03 > 0:42:07# I can take a road that'll see me through... #
0:42:08 > 0:42:12- Mum, where's Bilal? - He's gone to find food.
0:42:12 > 0:42:17- We'll have lunch when he gets back from the hotel.- If he comes back.
0:42:18 > 0:42:21What do you mean, darling?
0:42:21 > 0:42:24Well, he's gone a bit potty, hasn't he?
0:42:36 > 0:42:39# You can take the road that takes you to the stars now

0:42:48 > 0:42:52- Mum, will we still have a garden? - Hmm.
0:42:52 > 0:42:55- And mashed potatoes every night. - Hmm?
0:42:55 > 0:43:00- And will you still want to have two little girls?- What?!
0:43:00 > 0:43:01When?
0:43:01 > 0:43:04- When you become a Sufi.- Oh.
0:43:04 > 0:43:05Oi! >
0:43:05 > 0:43:08- Bilal!- Hey, girls!
0:43:13 > 0:43:15Sardines. 46 tins.

0:43:39 > 0:43:44I know, I know. Rub your tummies and bring up some more.
0:43:59 > 0:44:03BILAL SHOUTS IN ARABIC
0:44:10 > 0:44:13OK, this man's called Mohammed
0:44:13 > 0:44:16and he will drive you to Marrakech.
0:44:16 > 0:44:23- Isn't Bilal coming? Aren't you coming, Bilal?- No, there is work in Agadir.- Come on, girls.
0:44:23 > 0:44:29- But aren't you coming with us?- No, that is no longer part of the plan.
0:44:29 > 0:44:30Look!
0:44:35 > 0:44:38Learn and work is the only secret, OK?
0:44:38 > 0:44:44- We will meet soon, God willing. - Inshallah.- Yes, inshallah.
0:44:44 > 0:44:46Now, go, go, go, go!
0:44:52 > 0:44:54What did he say?
0:44:55 > 0:44:57Bilal?
0:45:26 > 0:45:28Bye, Bilal!
0:45:56 > 0:45:59THE GIRLS SHOUT IN ARABIC
0:46:02 > 0:46:06Hey, hey! Now, what should I call you, hmm?
0:46:06 > 0:46:09The English Girls or the Arab Girls?
0:46:10 > 0:46:13No matter. Shall we have tea?
0:46:14 > 0:46:18Er, Jean-Louis Santoni. BOTH: Mum!
0:46:18 > 0:46:25I remember your husband. I knew him in, er, the '60s. Quite a dandy.
0:46:26 > 0:46:30- Does he still wear those gold waistcoats?- Probably.
0:46:30 > 0:46:34And those little tight, black, elegant shoes?
0:46:34 > 0:46:38Too small for him, with pointed toes.
0:46:38 > 0:46:43I'm sure he does. And despicable red socks, full of goat's cheese.
0:46:43 > 0:46:48- Do you ever see him? - London is such a big place.
0:46:48 > 0:46:54It's booming - full of raincoats, pragmatists, optimists, bank accounts, wives.
0:46:54 > 0:47:01- Which is why you're here.- Which is exactly why I am here. And you?
0:47:01 > 0:47:05- Something similar. - I have a house nearby.
0:47:05 > 0:47:08- You must come and visit. - Oh, Mum, could we?
0:47:08 > 0:47:11- Please, Mum.- Oh, we'll see.
0:47:12 > 0:47:14We have to go now.
0:47:15 > 0:47:20Here is my card. I have many spare rooms.
0:47:22 > 0:47:27- Look at that one! - They're making funny noises.
0:47:27 > 0:47:28Come on.
0:47:30 > 0:47:37- Mum, shall we write to Bilal? - Well, he'll have to write first because I don't know where he is.
0:47:37 > 0:47:40So he knows where we are?
0:47:40 > 0:47:42No.
0:47:42 > 0:47:49If he doesn't know where WE are and we don't know where HE is, he won't be able to write, will he?
0:47:49 > 0:47:54- He probably doesn't want to write. - Don't we have an address, Mum?
0:47:54 > 0:47:56SHE SOBS
0:47:59 > 0:48:01I'm sorry, Mum.
0:48:03 > 0:48:05Mum, don't cry.

0:48:27 > 0:48:28Hello?
0:48:28 > 0:48:30Ah, Julia.
0:48:30 > 0:48:35I'm afraid you missed quite an average party. Come, come in.
0:48:35 > 0:48:39This is Charlotte. And this is Monsieur Ben Said.
0:48:39 > 0:48:42CHARLOTTE: Do excuse the mess.
0:48:42 > 0:48:47- Can I help?- I'm not sure if that would be an improvement.
0:48:47 > 0:48:51- On the contrary - how sweet. - I'm Bea.
0:48:53 > 0:48:58# Jean-Louis Santoni, Jean-Louis Santoni, Jean-Louis Santoni. #

0:49:24 > 0:49:28Oh! My God! Why are you hiding?
0:49:28 > 0:49:32Not actually hiding, we're sort of exploring.
0:49:35 > 0:49:40- Hideous Kinky!- Hideous Kin...- Bea! How long have you been in Morocco?
0:49:40 > 0:49:43About a year.
0:49:47 > 0:49:49Tell all.
0:49:50 > 0:49:53Father Christmas!
0:49:55 > 0:49:58CHARLOTTE: Mussolini!
0:49:58 > 0:50:02- Billy Bunter. No! Your father! - Sheikh Ben Jalil.
0:50:02 > 0:50:05- What?!- That's where Mum's going.
0:50:06 > 0:50:08Isn't it, Mum?
0:50:08 > 0:50:12The Sufis. And do you know what to expect of these Sufis?
0:50:14 > 0:50:19- Knowledge, I hope. Some kind of guidance.- Let me tell you.
0:50:19 > 0:50:24To start with, sitting around on cushions, a great deal of illogic,
0:50:24 > 0:50:27and even a greater deal more incense.
0:50:27 > 0:50:34Days of fasting, interminable amounts of prayer, and a personal visit from God.
0:50:34 > 0:50:37That's our country's tragedy - this escapism.
0:50:37 > 0:50:43I'm not escaping anything. I want to understand the truth.
0:50:43 > 0:50:48You think the truth will just come and curl up on your lap like a cat?
0:50:48 > 0:50:54Be warned. They're quite, quite dangerous to the mind, these Asian frauds.
0:50:54 > 0:50:59- They wouldn't be allowed in Europe. - But Europe lacks this inner world.
0:50:59 > 0:51:04The world is simply the world for present duties or passing pleasures.
0:51:04 > 0:51:09- What's so great about passing pleasures?- They're more amusing.
0:51:09 > 0:51:12Oh, sure! Which is fine, you know.
0:51:12 > 0:51:16You know, it's fine for children, like cornflakes!
0:51:16 > 0:51:21SANTONI: Julia, ignore Ben Said - he works for the tax department.
0:51:21 > 0:51:26- Actually, Ben Said IS the tax department.- Oh(!)
0:51:26 > 0:51:31- Mum, it still itches. - Oh, Lucy, don't scratch.
0:51:33 > 0:51:37I bought this in the medina, but it won't open.
0:51:40 > 0:51:41Charlotte.
0:51:46 > 0:51:48Man's work.
0:51:51 > 0:51:53- Ben.- Hmm?
0:51:58 > 0:52:01HE CALLS IN ARABIC
0:52:01 > 0:52:04I command you to open this tin.
0:52:06 > 0:52:07Oh!
0:52:09 > 0:52:13- Look, Charlotte, it's boot polish. - Wretched country.
0:52:16 > 0:52:18My God!
0:52:18 > 0:52:21You look grotesque!
0:52:21 > 0:52:26THEY SHOUT IN ARABIC
0:52:26 > 0:52:30You know, that language will land those children in trouble.
0:52:30 > 0:52:35- You need discipline, Julia.- I had plenty of that in my childhood.
0:52:35 > 0:52:40- I can't say it did me any good.- I'd probably say the same, unfortunately.
0:52:44 > 0:52:49- Shouldn't you go home?- To a one-room flat?- It's better than here!
0:52:49 > 0:52:54Or home in the evening with them rigid from child-minders and TV?
0:52:54 > 0:52:58- 14 working hours a day for nothing? - But...
0:52:58 > 0:53:03- Charlotte, you just don't know about these things.- Of course.
0:53:04 > 0:53:09Children are a gift, but you don't have the right to put them in danger.
0:53:10 > 0:53:12I beg your pardon?
0:53:12 > 0:53:19- You can't drag them round Morocco in the company of escaped criminals. - What the bloody hell do you mean?!
0:53:23 > 0:53:24Bea?
0:53:24 > 0:53:28Bea, what have you been saying?
0:53:28 > 0:53:33So why did he lie? So how come the policeman knew his face?
0:53:33 > 0:53:38- Whose face? Bilal?- So what about Fatima? What about his wife?
0:53:38 > 0:53:44- What wife?!- How come we had to go to Agadir and hide at the lake?
