0:00:12 > 0:00:16This film contains strong language and prolonged violent scenes.
0:00:31 > 0:00:37APPLAUSE AND WHISTLING
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Right. Eh... my wife and I...
0:00:41 > 0:00:44CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:00:50 > 0:00:52My wife and I would like to thank you all -
0:00:52 > 0:00:59my parents, who feel they're not so much losing a son as losing a liability.
0:00:59 > 0:01:00APPLAUSE
0:01:01 > 0:01:04If we'd been a tribe of Cherokee Indians,
0:01:04 > 0:01:08well, with names like Running Bear and Running Water,
0:01:08 > 0:01:11the only name for me would have been Running Sore.
0:01:11 > 0:01:12APPLAUSE
0:01:17 > 0:01:20But anyway, my wife and I...
0:01:20 > 0:01:23CLANGING GLASSES AND APPLAUSE
0:01:27 > 0:01:30Come on! Hey, hey, hey!
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Yes, we've got it.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35We've got it. Thank you, son.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Over here through midfield.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Yes! And Mrs Scoular...
0:01:40 > 0:01:43Yeah! And again!
0:01:43 > 0:01:45I've got it.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Scoular gets the ball. He turns. He shoots!
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Yeah!
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Put me down!
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Bastards!
0:04:29 > 0:04:31..up the hill on the left.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34Where? Up that way? There's another way up there?
0:04:39 > 0:04:41OK. See you.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52Are yous back already?
0:05:52 > 0:05:57Oh, caught me at it. I cannae stop myself! It's a compulsion. How's that?
0:05:57 > 0:05:58Good.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02- That's fine. - Driving a delivery van. Jesus.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04- It's a job. - Look, it's only an interview.
0:06:04 > 0:06:09Right. Done the washing and the ironing and the cleaning
0:06:09 > 0:06:14and the tidying, scrubbed the floors and reslated the roof.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Thank you.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19And the bin's out for the bin men,
0:06:19 > 0:06:22removed the wisdom tooth - the one at the back.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Slashed my wrists - twice.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28And now I've just got to drop off the Christmas Club money at Wally's.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Back before closing time?
0:06:30 > 0:06:34- Aye, before closing time.- Are you really going to get a job, Dad?
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Wait and see, pet.
0:06:36 > 0:06:37Will it be far away?
0:06:37 > 0:06:40- Maybe.- Who's going to play football with me, then?
0:06:40 > 0:06:42I am! Come on. Where's the ball?
0:06:42 > 0:06:45Last out's a big jessie!
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Yes!
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Yeah! Yeah, all right! Who's in goals?
0:06:49 > 0:06:53- I am, I suppose.- You're still wearing your best shoes!- Come on, then!
0:06:53 > 0:06:55- Danny!- We need a new as centre-forward.
0:06:55 > 0:07:00- Go on, Danny.- Kids, come on, then. Go in and change.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13- You ready?- Born ready.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37- Good evening, gentlemen. I hope you're both alcoholics. - Gin and tonic, pint of heavy.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41OK, boy. OK.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44- Good evening, Wally.- Hi, Danny.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47- It's not a bad night. - Aye, it's not bad.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50That's what I'm saying, Alan.
0:08:50 > 0:08:56Alan, if Thornbank was worth fighting for during the strike, it's worth fighting for now.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58- The struggle goes on. - Hi, lads.- Hi, Danny.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Do you understand what I'm saying here, Alan?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04- Sam, lads. - I'm just an ordinary barman, Vince.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06My thanks to you as an astute political activist.
0:09:06 > 0:09:12- You all right, Danny?- Vince. - Coal miners in the eastern bloc are asking why we lost the strike.
0:09:12 > 0:09:17Look, the great British miners' strike of 1984.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Want to know what we did right, what we did wrong.- We got beat.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23- That's a hard enough lesson to learn.- That's what I'm saying, Sam.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27This country knows how to shelve democracy as well as the next.
0:09:27 > 0:09:31Next time we crack their skulls before they crack ours.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Tell that to the scabs.
0:09:34 > 0:09:38- Frankie!- Alan, a pint of heavy for my big pal here.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40- Are you feeling all right, Frankie? - Nae problem, Danny.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42- I just got back from New York, as it happens.- Your mother said.
0:09:42 > 0:09:46A wee bit of business - flight paid for. Yourself?
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Interview for a job tomorrow - van driver.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Van driver!
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Beth wants me to go.
0:09:57 > 0:10:01Give me a minute, will you, Dan? Bursting.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Hey, Danny, here's your paper.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Saved you one.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Vince, you talk a lot of shite.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16So that's your man?
0:10:16 > 0:10:20That's him, Mr Mason, a man of principle - the best.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Mmm. Seems a bit lost in himself.
0:10:23 > 0:10:27Wouldn't you be - ten months on strike, six months in jail?
0:10:27 > 0:10:29Jail? For what?
0:10:29 > 0:10:31Grievous bodily harm.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33He hit a policeman in the head.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36Where's the grief in that, eh?
0:10:36 > 0:10:38But he's blacklisted now.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40He's a marked man.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Even if the mine was to open tomorrow, he wouldn't get a job.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46I tell you, Mr Mason, he's all yours.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49What makes you so sure?
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Money.
0:10:51 > 0:10:52His wife supports him.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55So what makes him stay in this shite hole?
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Well, this place is all he's got.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59People here remember who he was.
0:10:59 > 0:11:05- A loser.- Oh, no, Mr Mason - one thing about Danny Scoular - he only fights for what he believes in.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07He'll not back down.
0:11:07 > 0:11:11The big man, proud in victory, glorious in defeat.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13Mmm. Not so glorious now, eh?
0:11:46 > 0:11:48We were fighting for a better future.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51I think we should feel good about that.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53A pint of heavy.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56We have to keep thinking.
0:11:56 > 0:12:03We have to show those gangster politicians that we will NOT bend over and have our arses kicked.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05You talk shit!
0:12:11 > 0:12:15- I've got my opinions, pal. - I said shut up.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18- Open your mouth again, I'll fill it with a glass.- Hey.
0:12:20 > 0:12:21Yes. Can I help you?
0:12:21 > 0:12:24- The boy's just talking. - Not anymore, he's not.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27And who are you, you streak of piss?
0:12:27 > 0:12:28You his daddy come to wipe his arse?
0:12:55 > 0:12:59Alan doesn't like fights inside his pub.
0:13:02 > 0:13:03Yeah! Yeah!
0:13:03 > 0:13:05SHOUTS OF ENCOURAGEMENT
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Go, Danny! That fucking bastard.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Go Danny! He's a fucking loser, Danny.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Gaun yersel', Danny!
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Go on, Danny!
0:13:36 > 0:13:42That's how we beat them round here - straight in and no messing, just like the strike.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44A fighter for principle,
0:13:44 > 0:13:46the kind you cannot buy.
0:13:46 > 0:13:50Everybody gets a drink on me!
0:14:04 > 0:14:06A word with you, sir.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23Go on, Billy. Mush. Mush.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25And there he goes!
0:14:33 > 0:14:39HE HUMS
0:14:39 > 0:14:43# Dee dee-dee dee... # Bingo!
0:14:50 > 0:14:53My favourite girl - you should be in your bed.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55This is a £50 note. Where did you get it?
0:14:55 > 0:14:57Not bad for one night's work, eh?
0:14:57 > 0:15:01All right, Beth? Look. It's flying away!
0:15:01 > 0:15:02Work? A bet - it must have been a bet.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05An advance. An advance.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08- I'm earning it.- Like a job? - A job.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11And more where that came from.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19This is a lot of money, Danny.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23- A lot of money. Now tell me where you got it.- Right.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26There's this gentleman, Mr Mason. Matt Mason. He's from Glasgow.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28- Who is he? - A businessman. A friend of Frankie's.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30What's a proper businessman doing with Frankie White?
0:15:30 > 0:15:34Mr Mason's a wealthy man. Beth, you could take him home to your mother.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36- Owns a string of betting shops. - A bookie?!
0:15:36 > 0:15:39Respectable. Owns racehorses.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41You're too old to believe in Santa Claus, Danny.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44- Just what sort of job is it? - Oh, for Christ's sake, Beth.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47It's money, isn't it? Van driving doesn't make this kind of money.
0:15:47 > 0:15:48OK. So you don't want to drive a van.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Fine. No problem. But what are you going to do?
0:15:50 > 0:15:53- Ride a racehorse?- Fight a man.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58- You mean hit someone? - Fight, fight a man.- Who?
0:15:58 > 0:16:00- Don't know.- You don't know?
0:16:00 > 0:16:02It doesn't matter. It's bare knuckles, right?
0:16:02 > 0:16:05- It's a bare-knuckle fight.- Since when were you a bare-knuckle fighter?
0:16:05 > 0:16:07I can't sit here and wash the children's underwear for the rest of my life.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Why not? I work. I earn the money.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12I've got a job!
0:16:12 > 0:16:16Can you not think for just one minute - think what you're doing?
0:16:16 > 0:16:18Look, honey, listen.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20All I'm going to do is get into a bit of a scrap, right?
0:16:20 > 0:16:23A playground scrap.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26We can take this man Mason's money and run.
0:16:29 > 0:16:33- Let's just pack up and go. - Go? Go where?
0:16:33 > 0:16:36Anywhere. Sell up and move out.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Too late.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46I said I'm doing it.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49It's too late.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51- So you told the boys?- Aye.
0:16:53 > 0:16:57Booked their tickets. Want to see some blood - people pay good money for that, you know.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13You don't have to do this, Danny.
0:17:13 > 0:17:14I want to do it.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21I won't go through it all again.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24I won't.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28I'm not going to sit here with the kids while you're in jail
0:17:28 > 0:17:31or hospital or God knows where. I won't, no.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33No.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34You always have to be the big man, don't you?
0:18:36 > 0:18:37Always Jack the Lad.
0:18:39 > 0:18:42Do you think these people care if you went to prison,
0:18:42 > 0:18:45never get a job down a mine?
0:18:47 > 0:18:52Danny, I know it could have been anyone else.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55The point is, it was you.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57And I stood by you
0:18:57 > 0:18:59because it was a principle there.
0:18:59 > 0:19:04It was about leading ordinary, decent lives. We fought for that.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07I never wanted to see you hurt.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10I love you.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Isn't that enough?
0:19:14 > 0:19:19You don't have to go out and get yourself brain damage just to prove you're still Danny Scoular.
0:19:24 > 0:19:25Go to sleep.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34I took the man's money, Beth.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37And you could just give it back.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Roll over Sugar Ray Robinson!
0:20:21 > 0:20:24Bite your bum Muhammad Ali!
0:20:24 > 0:20:29In the red corner, the man you wouldn't take home to see your sister,
0:20:29 > 0:20:35Thornbank's answer to Rocky Marciano, the mad miner himself, Danny Scoular.
0:20:35 > 0:20:40# Here we go, here we go, here we go! #
0:20:49 > 0:20:52- Dad, dad!- Come in.
0:20:52 > 0:20:53Go on your bike. Go on.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Mum, dad's going running - running!
0:20:58 > 0:21:00I know.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Come on.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Come on. Keep those knees up now.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15Come on! You're running like a big jessie.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20So who's this I'm fighting, Frankie?
0:21:20 > 0:21:22What do you want to know that for?
0:21:22 > 0:21:25All you have to do is batter the shit out of him.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27Slow down, you bastard.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29I'm the pacemaker.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32Slow down before I lose my balls in this saddle!
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Danny!
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Danny!
0:21:48 > 0:21:49Hey!
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Look at that.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57Still in working order.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00You know where they bring the coal in from now? China.
0:22:00 > 0:22:05Good riddance. Let the chinkies do it. That's what I say.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07That was more than a job, Frankie.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09That was worth fighting for.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Not for me it isn't.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15What did they do for you and the rest? Where did it get you?
0:22:15 > 0:22:19Thornbank, land of the living dead.
0:22:19 > 0:22:24Your brains are boiled away until there's nothing left in the bag.
0:22:24 > 0:22:29Look at me - made my own way in the world, a travelled man.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32America, the Wild West!
0:22:32 > 0:22:34You were always a bloody cowboy, Frank.
0:22:56 > 0:22:57HORN HONKS
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Hello! Yeah!
0:23:06 > 0:23:10Beth! What are you doing? Beth!
0:23:10 > 0:23:14He's running now. Faster, dad. Faster.
0:23:14 > 0:23:18Kids! No!
0:24:02 > 0:24:03Hello, darling.
0:24:05 > 0:24:06Here you go. Come now.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38Oh, Beth.
0:24:47 > 0:24:48They're my kids too.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Stay quiet. Don't move.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54I'll fix the tea.
0:24:57 > 0:25:02Other men have shifted themselves, made something of themselves after the strike. Not Danny.
0:25:02 > 0:25:07He organises his life with the precision of a road accident.
0:25:07 > 0:25:11Everything I loved about him makes me angry now.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14He could get up and do something at a moment's notice. I loved that.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17But he can't concentrate on anything for longer than five minutes.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21And if he does do anything - if he irons a shirt - he expects a gold medal for it.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26He doesn't understand he's got to take what's there -
0:25:26 > 0:25:30the oil rigs, van driving, cleaning windows, whatever it is.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32And now he's working for gangsters?!
0:25:32 > 0:25:35Thinks he's Jack the Lad again!
0:25:35 > 0:25:38For God's sake, how can you hope to bring the kids up decent?
0:25:38 > 0:25:41He doesn't even know himself what he believes in.
0:25:41 > 0:25:45I gave up everything for him, Gordon and college and...
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Beginning to sound like my mother.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55Everything she said about us...
0:25:56 > 0:25:58it was all true.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Sometimes you sound as if we'd brought you up as a punishment.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04Your mother happens to be my wife.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53Another day, another dollar! I want you on the road in ten.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55Why me?
0:26:55 > 0:26:57Why you what?
0:26:57 > 0:26:59Why did Mason pick me?
0:26:59 > 0:27:01Mr Mason's been like a father to me.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04Trust me. Up and out. Shake it!
0:27:23 > 0:27:26Oi! Where you going? Danny!
0:27:26 > 0:27:28Hey!
0:27:31 > 0:27:34Bastard.
0:27:49 > 0:27:50Mr Murtagh.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01About the job - I've come about the job.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04- Sorry. Mr...? - Scoular, Danny Scoular.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07The interviews were yesterday, Mr Scoular.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09I know I'm late, but I'm here now.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12Just ask me some questions. I need the job.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15Do you have any van driving experience?
0:28:15 > 0:28:18You know, I've always wanted to be a van driver.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20What are your qualifications?
0:28:20 > 0:28:22I was a miner, 13 years.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26I see you have a criminal record, Mr Scoular.

1:32:16 > 1:32:17Is that you, Davie?
1:32:18 > 1:32:21Cutty, it's me, Danny Scoular.
1:32:24 > 1:32:25Pleased to meet you.
1:32:32 > 1:32:35- Cutty, I'm sorry. - It's not your fault. Just a job.
1:32:39 > 1:32:42But you could be blind, for Christ's sake.
1:32:42 > 1:32:44That's the way it goes.
1:32:44 > 1:32:46It's nobody's fault.
1:32:46 > 1:32:48I got beat.
1:33:03 > 1:33:05The fight, Cutty...
1:33:05 > 1:33:06What were we fighting for?
1:33:06 > 1:33:08- You don't know?- No.
1:33:08 > 1:33:10Still in your nappies!
1:33:10 > 1:33:13I didn't tell you this, right?
1:33:13 > 1:33:17There's a fella called Tony, Big Man,
1:33:17 > 1:33:19Big Man in Glasgow,
1:33:19 > 1:33:25Big Man in Spain, Big Man everywhere, been spending money that didnae belong to him.
1:33:25 > 1:33:27- So?- He was supplying drugs.
1:33:27 > 1:33:29- Drugs?- Aye.
1:33:29 > 1:33:33He made a bum delivery - brown sugar and Ajax.
1:33:33 > 1:33:36To who? To Colvin? He was cheating on Colvin?
1:33:36 > 1:33:39And Mason. They were in it together.
1:33:40 > 1:33:46- Together? - Always in it together, ever since they were wiping each other's arses.
1:33:46 > 1:33:48But the fight... What was the point of the fight?
1:33:48 > 1:33:50We were the bet,
1:33:50 > 1:33:53to see who would kill the Big Man.
1:33:53 > 1:33:56Somebody had to pay the bill.
1:33:56 > 1:33:58I lost.
1:33:58 > 1:34:00So Colvin pays,
1:34:00 > 1:34:02shoulders the risk.
1:34:11 > 1:34:15When we were kids, we used to race snails through the puddles.
1:34:17 > 1:34:19The loser got his snail trod on.
1:34:29 > 1:34:31What's this?
1:34:31 > 1:34:32We had a collection for you.
1:34:32 > 1:34:34That's what you earned. You take it.
1:34:34 > 1:34:37Stay away from your man Mason.
1:34:37 > 1:34:42He's buried more people than your undertaker.
1:35:02 > 1:35:04BARKING
1:35:59 > 1:35:59I'm home.
1:36:01 > 1:36:03I won.
1:36:05 > 1:36:08A fine mess you've made of yourself.
1:36:08 > 1:36:10Look at you.
1:36:10 > 1:36:13Are you collecting your things?
1:36:13 > 1:36:16- Why should I do that? - What about Gordon?
1:36:20 > 1:36:22It was nothing to do with him, Danny.
1:36:22 > 1:36:25It was to do with me.
1:36:25 > 1:36:26Understand?
1:36:35 > 1:36:36Look.
1:36:36 > 1:36:38It's not money I want.
1:36:40 > 1:36:43It's you.
1:36:45 > 1:36:46I love you.
1:36:50 > 1:36:51Where's Kate, wee Danny?
1:36:55 > 1:36:57Sleeping in their beds where they belong.
1:36:57 > 1:36:59Love you too, Beth.
1:37:01 > 1:37:04This is my home, Danny,
1:37:04 > 1:37:06our home.
1:37:08 > 1:37:10This is the life we've chosen for ourselves.
1:37:10 > 1:37:13Look at this, Beth. Look at it!
1:37:16 > 1:37:17I had to do it.
1:37:20 > 1:37:22There's blood on that money, and I'll not have it in the house.
1:37:30 > 1:37:31I'm going in now.
1:38:21 > 1:38:22KNOCKING
1:38:27 > 1:38:31Ah, it's yourself, Beth. Can Danny come out to play?
1:38:34 > 1:38:38- Not with the likes of you.- Eh, Mr Mason will be calling around later.
1:38:40 > 1:38:42We'll deal with it, Frankie.
1:38:44 > 1:38:49For Christ's sake, Beth. I've just persuaded Mr Mason to give you all one last chance as a special favour.
1:38:49 > 1:38:51We don't NEED special favours.
1:38:51 > 1:38:55Well, it's a special favour to me. If I don't come up with the goodies, I might have to disappear here.
1:38:55 > 1:38:58And what do you get out of it, Frankie?
1:38:58 > 1:39:01Well, my arms and legs get to stay in working order. Just let me see him.
1:39:01 > 1:39:03It's best he comes out now.
1:39:07 > 1:39:08Aye. OK.
1:39:10 > 1:39:12Wait there.
1:39:24 > 1:39:25What was that for?
1:39:25 > 1:39:28Get your arse out of my front yard.
1:39:28 > 1:39:31- Go on!- Jesus Christ!
1:39:34 > 1:39:36Hey! Ho! Hey!
1:39:57 > 1:39:58New shoes, Sam?
1:40:00 > 1:40:03I won a bet on you.
1:40:05 > 1:40:08Danny, there's a shithead in the pub for you.
1:40:08 > 1:40:10A smile like a tax collector.
1:40:10 > 1:40:12Thought I'd better let you know.
1:40:12 > 1:40:15Thanks, Sam.
1:40:31 > 1:40:33Could you not get out of here?
1:40:33 > 1:40:36Where else would I go, Sam?
1:40:36 > 1:40:38Would you like me to call the police?
1:40:38 > 1:40:40No! It wouldn't do any good.
1:40:48 > 1:40:50Tell me, Danny. You won the fight, didn't you?
1:40:50 > 1:40:52So what did you do wrong?
1:41:08 > 1:41:10No problem, Danny. At least I'm still walking.
1:41:10 > 1:41:14- It's you they're after.- What did you do in New York, Frankie, eh, eh? Eh?
1:41:14 > 1:41:16What did you do in New York?
1:41:16 > 1:41:17Eh?
1:41:17 > 1:41:20What's this? What's all this, you bastard?
1:41:20 > 1:41:23What about you, Danny Scoular?
1:41:23 > 1:41:27These guys will hide in your coal hole for a week just to get you.
1:41:27 > 1:41:30If they can't get you, it will be Beth and the kids.
1:42:19 > 1:42:22Did you think I wouldn't come?
1:42:22 > 1:42:24I had my reasons for what I did.
1:42:24 > 1:42:28So does Mother Teresa, but she doesn't use my money.
1:43:16 > 1:43:17I'll give you a ride home.
1:43:18 > 1:43:20We called in earlier.
1:43:20 > 1:43:22Jesus.
1:43:51 > 1:43:53Beth!
1:43:57 > 1:43:58Beth!
1:44:01 > 1:44:02Beth!
1:44:06 > 1:44:07Beth!
1:44:50 > 1:44:53Ladies and gentlemen,
1:44:53 > 1:44:56your champion,
1:44:56 > 1:44:58the Big Man,
1:44:58 > 1:45:00Danny Scoular!
1:45:00 > 1:45:03There's none fight longer.
1:45:03 > 1:45:04There's none fight harder.
1:45:07 > 1:45:10Here, a celebration,
1:45:10 > 1:45:11the pride of Thornbank.
1:45:13 > 1:45:19Time to celebrate the conquering hero.
1:45:22 > 1:45:26Get back underground and crawl through shit for a penny.
1:45:26 > 1:45:29It's all you're worth.
1:45:29 > 1:45:31I'd rather crawl through shit than live in a slaughterhouse.
1:45:31 > 1:45:34You've got your money. Now fuck off.
1:45:34 > 1:45:35It's not the money I want. It's you.
1:45:35 > 1:45:37I'll be back.
1:45:37 > 1:45:39The man says he'll be back.
1:45:49 > 1:45:50You'll never sleep at night.
1:45:50 > 1:45:53The man says he'll never sleep at night.
1:45:53 > 1:45:56I could kill you any time.
1:45:56 > 1:45:59He says he could kill him any time.
1:45:59 > 1:46:02You may be right there, Mr Mason.
1:46:02 > 1:46:04You could kill him, but you'll never kill us all.
1:46:11 > 1:46:16Why wait? Here. Do it now.
1:46:16 > 1:46:20Go on. Go on. Take what I owe you.
1:46:20 > 1:46:22Take it out of this. Go on!
1:46:22 > 1:46:25Do it. Fucking go on! Do it!
1:46:27 > 1:46:30Consider this as your funeral.
1:46:33 > 1:46:37And consider me as your chief mourner.
1:47:49 > 1:47:51Come on.
1:47:51 > 1:47:52We'll fix you up.
