0:34:56 > 0:35:03Well, the way you're talking, you'd think she was stealing your little brother away from you.
0:35:03 > 0:35:10Who is she anyway? We've never met her. She sounds nice on the phone.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13What does she see in Tim, anyhow?
0:35:13 > 0:35:16What do you mean, "What does she see in him?"
0:35:16 > 0:35:18You know.
0:35:18 > 0:35:22She's good to him, that's all I know.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26- Here y'are. - Thanks, Mum.
0:35:30 > 0:35:33Anyway, who were you out with?
0:35:33 > 0:35:40The chairman of the board - 92, but very sexy(!) Huh! Very funny.
0:35:40 > 0:35:45I want to know what all these blokes see in you. Things you never do.
0:35:45 > 0:35:52None of that talk in this house, thanks very much. Smart arse.
0:35:52 > 0:35:57Come on. Who's this bloke you've been seeing lately? Which one?
0:35:57 > 0:36:04You know! The tall one who called tonight. At least he didn't toot outside - he came to the door.
0:36:04 > 0:36:05Ah! Mick.
0:36:05 > 0:36:10Mick Harrington. Well, as a matter of fact...
0:36:11 > 0:36:15- ..we're engaged to be married. - ENGAGED?!
0:36:16 > 0:36:21- Dawnie!- When did this happen? Tonight.- I'm so happy for you!
0:36:21 > 0:36:26Jesus Christ. His family's got money. How will we pay for the wedding?
0:36:26 > 0:36:30That's what I saved MY money for! You did?
0:36:30 > 0:36:35- I'm going to have a beaut wedding. - We don't want you to be ashamed.
0:36:35 > 0:36:42No way! You've brought me up in the best, nicest and happiest of homes. That's why I love you both.
0:36:42 > 0:36:47Mick's OK - a bit of a snob, but I'll knock that out of him.
0:36:48 > 0:36:52- Good night, Mum.- Good night love. - Night, Dawnie.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55Well, what do you think about that?
0:36:55 > 0:36:58I think it's marvellous!
0:36:58 > 0:37:00Well...
0:37:00 > 0:37:03I'll turn the television off.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07Who'd have believed it!
0:37:07 > 0:37:12- I never thought it would happen! - She was always too much for me!
0:37:12 > 0:37:16- Mick! Mick Harrington! - Mrs Harrington!
0:37:18 > 0:37:20Our Dawnie!
0:37:20 > 0:37:24It came as a bit of a shock to me, I can tell you!
0:37:26 > 0:37:28I'll give you a hand.
0:37:28 > 0:37:33No! Don't you strain yourself. Get off to bed.
0:37:34 > 0:37:40- I hope Dawnie isn't making a mistake. - Oh, she'll be all right.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43- This Mick... What's his name? - Harrington.
0:37:43 > 0:37:46Seems a bit of a poof to me.
0:37:46 > 0:37:49Oh, Ron! You don't even know him!
0:37:49 > 0:37:52I saw him when he came to the door.
0:37:52 > 0:37:56HE won't go to the pub with me and Tim.
0:37:56 > 0:37:58Oh, Jesus! I forgot all about Tim.
0:37:58 > 0:38:03He's always doted on Dawnie. He's going to miss her.
0:38:10 > 0:38:12You're very quiet today.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36Where do you want these planted?
0:38:36 > 0:38:38Er...
0:38:38 > 0:38:43What do you say we put the marigolds right over there?
0:38:44 > 0:38:48- Whatever you say. - Well, what do YOU think?
0:38:51 > 0:38:54I dunno. Whatever you say.
0:39:02 > 0:39:03Tim?
0:39:03 > 0:39:07Is anything the matter?
0:39:08 > 0:39:09No.
0:39:23 > 0:39:26You've been so quiet today.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34Anything I've done?
0:39:38 > 0:39:40No.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44You been doing any reading lately?
0:39:47 > 0:39:50Would you read for me now?
0:39:51 > 0:39:53All right.
0:40:18 > 0:40:21It was a warm...day.
0:40:23 > 0:40:25And...
0:40:25 > 0:40:28out...of the hills...ran...
0:40:29 > 0:40:32..rippling creeks.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36The water...
0:40:36 > 0:40:39ran on the...rocks
0:40:39 > 0:40:41in pools where fish...
0:40:41 > 0:40:44leaped and played.
0:40:46 > 0:40:48And...
0:40:48 > 0:40:51the little boy...
0:40:52 > 0:40:57..was sitting on... the rock by the road.
0:40:57 > 0:40:59And he...
0:40:59 > 0:41:02And he...
0:41:06 > 0:41:08Tim, what is it?
0:41:08 > 0:41:11HE SOBS
0:41:23 > 0:41:25Oh, Tim!
0:41:28 > 0:41:31What's making you so unhappy?
0:41:35 > 0:41:40- She's goin' away. - Who's going away?- Dawnie.
0:41:40 > 0:41:44She's gettin' married. I don't want her to get married and go away.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47It's part of getting married.
0:41:47 > 0:41:52That doesn't mean she won't love you as much as she always has.
0:41:52 > 0:41:56You won't ever go away and leave me, will you?
0:41:56 > 0:41:57No.
0:41:57 > 0:42:00Not unless I die, or something.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04What's "dying", Mary?
0:42:04 > 0:42:07No-one will ever tell me.
0:42:07 > 0:42:11Not Mum or Dad, or even Dawnie. What's "dying"?
0:42:11 > 0:42:14What's "dead"?
0:42:14 > 0:42:17Do they mean the same thing?
0:42:17 > 0:42:19In a way.
0:42:22 > 0:42:24You see...
0:42:24 > 0:42:31every moment of the day and night, your heart is beating inside your chest.
0:42:31 > 0:42:34Like it is now.
0:42:34 > 0:42:37- You can always feel it, can't you? - Mm.
0:42:37 > 0:42:41Well, while it does that, you're alive.
0:42:41 > 0:42:47Now, you've seen things grow old and wear out - things that you've used.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50Well, people wear out.
0:42:50 > 0:42:53And their hearts stop.
0:42:54 > 0:42:58Like a clock that you can't wind up any more.
0:43:01 > 0:43:04It happens to everybody.
0:43:05 > 0:43:09It just happens one day - and then you're dead.
0:43:11 > 0:43:15It's nothing to be afraid of. It can't hurt you.
0:43:17 > 0:43:20Is it going to happen to us?
0:43:20 > 0:43:22Yes.
0:43:23 > 0:43:26I don't want you to die before I do.
0:43:26 > 0:43:28Tim.
0:43:28 > 0:43:33Dying is like saying goodbye and going away. It happens to all of us.
0:43:34 > 0:43:38- Dawnie's goin' away. - That's different.
0:43:40 > 0:43:45She's getting married, and you'll be able to see her.
0:43:47 > 0:43:50Don't be unhappy about it, please. Promise.
0:43:52 > 0:43:55- I promise.- Good.
0:43:58 > 0:44:01- Mary.- What?
0:44:01 > 0:44:05Just now when you hugged me...
0:44:05 > 0:44:10Well, when I was a little kid, when I cried, Mum used to hug me.
0:44:10 > 0:44:14Then when I got bigger, she didn't hug me again - but you did.
0:44:17 > 0:44:22Well, it doesn't matter how big we are, does it?
0:44:27 > 0:44:29I like you.
0:44:29 > 0:44:33I like you the same as I like Mum and Dad.
0:44:33 > 0:44:38- I don't like Dawnie as much as you. - Now, Tim...- No, I like you better.
0:44:39 > 0:44:42I like you too, Tim - very much.
0:44:42 > 0:44:46As much as you like your own mum and dad?
0:44:46 > 0:44:50I don't have a mum and dad. They died a long time ago.
0:45:11 > 0:45:17- RON: Flash-lookin' place, isn't it? - We're only going to have a drink with the Harringtons -
0:45:17 > 0:45:20- we're not going to buy the place! - Hmm.
0:45:27 > 0:45:30MICK: Ah, here we are.
0:45:30 > 0:45:32MICK'S FATHER: Hello.
0:45:33 > 0:45:38Emily, Ron, I'd like you to meet my mother and father - Dick and Vivian.
0:45:38 > 0:45:42How do you do? Hello. How do you do?
0:45:42 > 0:45:48And this, of course, is Dawnie. Ah, yes. Let's drink a toast.
0:45:48 > 0:45:52Long life and happy days! Long life and happy days!
0:45:52 > 0:45:55- Mick and Dawnie. - Thanks.
0:45:55 > 0:45:57To us!
0:45:57 > 0:46:00Shall we sit down?
0:46:12 > 0:46:17Naturally, Dawn will be married in white, with at least one attendant?
0:46:17 > 0:46:18One?
0:46:18 > 0:46:21- She'll have four.- Oh!
0:46:21 > 0:46:26And the men in morning suits, Mr Melville?
0:46:26 > 0:46:28Ron.
0:46:28 > 0:46:31What do you think...Ron?
0:46:31 > 0:46:34Well, whatever you say.
0:46:39 > 0:46:44I'll give you a list of those the groom wants to invite, Mrs Melville.
0:46:44 > 0:46:47Oh, call me Em - Emily.
0:46:47 > 0:46:50Oh yes, well...Emily.
0:46:50 > 0:46:53Sure, whatever you think.
0:46:53 > 0:46:57I believe that Dawn has a brother.
0:46:57 > 0:47:02Yes. That's Tim, but he won't be coming.
0:47:02 > 0:47:04Dad, I want Tim to see me marry.
0:47:04 > 0:47:08But you know Tim don't like crowds.
0:47:08 > 0:47:13Your dad's right. With a lot of people, Tim gets overexcited.
0:47:13 > 0:47:16I didn't realise he was a youngster.
0:47:16 > 0:47:19He's not a youngster, he's simple.
0:47:19 > 0:47:21Simple?
0:47:21 > 0:47:24Tim's not the full quid.
0:47:26 > 0:47:28You knew, Mick!
0:47:28 > 0:47:32Yeah, I didn't really give it much thought.
0:47:32 > 0:47:35We've never hidden it, have we?
0:47:35 > 0:47:37Well, no.
0:47:38 > 0:47:45Anyway, Tim's my brother and I love him, and he's coming to my wedding!
0:47:50 > 0:47:52More champagne?
0:48:10 > 0:48:13PHONE RINGS
0:48:16 > 0:48:18309 4208.
0:48:18 > 0:48:24- 'Hello. It's Ron Melville.'- How are you, Mr Melville?- 'Fine, thanks.'
0:48:24 > 0:48:29Sorry to ring you at home, but Em and I need your advice on something.
0:48:29 > 0:48:31Yes.
0:48:31 > 0:48:36- Our daughter is getting married. - 'Congratulations!'- Thank you.
0:48:36 > 0:48:41It's about the wedding. I'm giving her a big one - four bridesmaids.
0:48:41 > 0:48:47And, er...well...Em and I would like Tim at the wedding.
0:48:47 > 0:48:51'But then there's the reception afterwards - all those people.'
0:48:51 > 0:48:55We don't think he should go. He couldn't handle it.
0:48:55 > 0:49:03Listen, why don't you let him go to the church, and I'll pick him up outside right afterwards.
0:49:03 > 0:49:07He can go to my beach place and stay for the weekend.
0:49:07 > 0:49:10- Thanks, Miss Horton.- 'Good night.' - Goodbye.
0:49:12 > 0:49:14- All right?- Mm.
0:49:15 > 0:49:20They kneel before Thee to ask Thy blessing on their life together.
0:49:20 > 0:49:24May the light of Thy wisdom be about them
0:49:24 > 0:49:30Thy love be their strength and stay, the spirit of Christ, their spirit. Amen.
0:49:30 > 0:49:34- ALL: Amen. - May God make grace abound in you,
0:49:34 > 0:49:41and that through the proving of your faith, men may glorify God. Amen.
0:49:41 > 0:49:44BOTH: Amen.
0:49:44 > 0:49:48Dawnie looks like a fairy princess, doesn't she?
0:49:49 > 0:49:53You wait outside for Miss Horton, like I said, right?
0:49:53 > 0:49:57- See you back home tomorrow night. - Righto, Dad.
0:50:10 > 0:50:13Well, how was the wedding?
0:50:13 > 0:50:16- Were you happy for Dawnie?- Yeah.
0:50:16 > 0:50:20Mum cried a bit. So did Dad. I didn't, though.
0:50:20 > 0:50:23Why should you cry if you're happy?
0:50:23 > 0:50:27Some day I hope you're so happy that you'll cry.
0:50:46 > 0:50:49How's it going?
0:50:52 > 0:50:54It's good.
0:52:17 > 0:52:20Night-night, Mary.
0:52:21 > 0:52:23Night, Tim.
0:52:34 > 0:52:36Thanks.
0:52:38 > 0:52:42- Have you had a copy of this telex? - Yes.
0:52:42 > 0:52:44The problem is far from solved.
0:52:47 > 0:52:51I haven't seen you today. D'you have a good weekend?
0:52:51 > 0:52:56- Went down to the beach. - You and Tim?- Yes.
0:52:56 > 0:52:58You're becoming quite a twosome.
0:52:58 > 0:53:02- Yes. - They need a decision right away.
0:53:04 > 0:53:09- I went out the last time.- I think we'll both have to go this time.
0:53:09 > 0:53:14- When?- Tomorrow morning. I'll fetch you in a cab. Plane leaves at 7.00am.
0:53:42 > 0:53:43Hi, Mum!
0:53:44 > 0:53:47There's some postcards for you.
0:53:49 > 0:53:52From Miss Horton?
0:53:54 > 0:53:56What's she say?
0:53:56 > 0:53:57Er...
0:54:04 > 0:54:07"Be back Saturday".
0:54:10 > 0:54:13You miss her, don't you?
0:54:23 > 0:54:25I got it, Mum.
0:54:25 > 0:54:28Oh...Thanks, love.
0:54:51 > 0:54:55- I have to make a phone call. - I'll get the bags.
0:55:12 > 0:55:13Tim?
0:55:13 > 0:55:16I'm back!
0:56:03 > 0:56:09TV: 'I was a primary school teacher. I went to England eight years ago.'
0:56:09 > 0:56:16While there, quite accidentally, somehow I got drafted into a school
0:56:16 > 0:56:19for mentally-retarded youngsters.
0:56:19 > 0:56:21It fascinated me.
0:56:21 > 0:56:26When I returned, I decided that THAT was the work I wanted to do.
0:56:26 > 0:56:31So I studied to learn how to teach the children.
0:56:33 > 0:56:38The youngsters are taught many things, not just to read and write.
0:56:38 > 0:56:43Out there is part of the work of the Creative Leisure Movement.
0:56:43 > 0:56:48They've been rehearsing a play for a week - a very special play.
0:56:48 > 0:56:50They've written it.
0:56:50 > 0:56:56They've made everything for it - all the costumes and bits and pieces.
0:56:56 > 0:56:59The main thing is it's THEIR play.
0:56:59 > 0:57:02It's THEM that have made it happen.
0:57:02 > 0:57:05INAUDIBLE
0:57:07 > 0:57:09You say you taught Tim to read?
0:57:09 > 0:57:13- Yes, a little. - Was he pleased about that?
0:57:13 > 0:57:16Yes. He felt he had achieved something.
0:57:16 > 0:57:21He's aware of his limits. It's incredible.
0:57:21 > 0:57:26But you see...I'm not sure of what his limits are.
0:57:26 > 0:57:30I want SO to know what he's really thinking,
0:57:30 > 0:57:34what he's feeling, how he dreams.
0:57:34 > 0:57:39BELL RINGS Would you like to see the rest of the school?
0:57:39 > 0:57:40Very much.
0:57:45 > 0:57:49- What does Tim do for a living? - He's a builder's labourer.
0:57:49 > 0:57:54- What are his parents like?- I've only ever spoken to them on the phone.
0:57:54 > 0:57:57I'm sure they're not well-educated.
0:57:57 > 0:58:00They love him a lot.
0:58:00 > 0:58:05They didn't know what to do with him when he was a child.
0:58:05 > 0:58:09When he couldn't manage at school, they sent him off to work.
0:58:09 > 0:58:17- I'd like to meet him.- I think he'd like that.- Does he have a speech abnormality or physical deformity?
0:58:17 > 0:58:20No. He's quite handsome actually.
0:58:36 > 0:58:38THUMP OF HEARTBEAT
0:59:51 > 0:59:53Hello.
0:59:53 > 0:59:57Wonder where Mum is. Em, we're home, love!
0:59:57 > 0:59:58Em?
0:59:58 > 1:00:01She must be having a lie-down.
1:00:01 > 1:00:04Mum!
1:00:11 > 1:00:14Dad! In here, Dad!
1:00:14 > 1:00:16DAD!
1:00:17 > 1:00:19Oh, Jesus!
1:00:19 > 1:00:22Jesus Christ!
1:00:24 > 1:00:26She... She's as cold as ice!
1:00:26 > 1:00:30Get a cardigan or a blanket or something.
1:00:40 > 1:00:43Hello. Dr Perkins, it's Ron Melville here.
1:00:43 > 1:00:47Doc, it's Em. I think it's her heart.
1:00:47 > 1:00:49She's just lying here.
1:00:49 > 1:00:53All right. We'll wait for the ambulance.
1:00:53 > 1:00:54Em...
1:00:54 > 1:00:58Hear me speak, love. It's Ron. Can you hear me?
1:00:58 > 1:01:01Em! Em, love...
1:01:01 > 1:01:03Em, it's Ron. Can you hear me?
1:01:10 > 1:01:12Oh, Ron!
1:01:13 > 1:01:16I'm so pleased to see you!
1:01:17 > 1:01:20The pain was terrible.
1:01:20 > 1:01:22Where's Tim?
1:01:22 > 1:01:24He's here, love.
1:01:24 > 1:01:26I'm here, Mum.
1:01:27 > 1:01:32Don't worry! The ambulance is coming to take you to the hospital.
1:01:35 > 1:01:37How d'ya feel?
1:01:39 > 1:01:42Like something the cat dragged in.
1:01:44 > 1:01:46Oh, Ron!
1:01:46 > 1:01:48I wet myself.
1:01:48 > 1:01:50The chair's sopping.
1:01:50 > 1:01:53Bugger the furniture!
1:01:55 > 1:01:57Oh, Em!
1:01:57 > 1:02:00Don't let anything happen to you.

1:03:52 > 1:03:54Is she all right?
1:03:54 > 1:03:58We got her here OK. She's going to be all right.
1:03:58 > 1:04:01Come on, Dawnie. Sit down.
1:04:01 > 1:04:04Take it easy.
1:04:04 > 1:04:05OK.
1:04:06 > 1:04:08Sorry, Ron.
1:04:12 > 1:04:15Why did I go to the pub?
1:04:15 > 1:04:21I coulda come straight home. I coulda come straight home for once.
1:04:21 > 1:04:24Don't blame yourself, Dad.
1:04:24 > 1:04:26But I do.
1:04:35 > 1:04:37Tim.
1:04:38 > 1:04:41Don't worry about Mum.
1:04:41 > 1:04:44She's going to be all right.
1:04:44 > 1:04:47But what if mum dies, Dawnie?
1:04:48 > 1:04:51Mary told me about dying.
1:04:51 > 1:04:54What if Mum dies?
1:05:16 > 1:05:19Talk to you a moment, Ron?
1:05:32 > 1:05:35She's gone, mate.
1:05:35 > 1:05:37We did all we could.
1:05:41 > 1:05:43Gone.
1:05:44 > 1:05:49How will I tell Dawnie and Tim? Do you want me to?
1:05:52 > 1:05:55Could I see her?
1:06:54 > 1:06:57She's gone.
1:06:57 > 1:06:59O-o-oh, Mick!
1:07:03 > 1:07:07Better take Dawnie home, Mick. Yeah.
1:07:09 > 1:07:12Come on, son.

1:07:52 > 1:07:54Well, she's gone, Tim.
1:07:54 > 1:07:59We've got to learn to get along without her.
1:08:00 > 1:08:03But it's going to be awful hard.
1:08:10 > 1:08:13She's really and truly dead?
1:08:15 > 1:08:16Yes, son.
1:08:16 > 1:08:19Really and truly.
1:08:37 > 1:08:40Mary told me about dying.
1:08:40 > 1:08:43I know what dead is.
1:08:43 > 1:08:46It's like saying goodbye and going away.
1:08:46 > 1:08:48Isn't it?
1:08:50 > 1:08:53That's about the size of it, son.

1:09:34 > 1:09:37'Sorry to ring you at your office,'
1:09:37 > 1:09:40but my wife, Em, died last night.
1:09:40 > 1:09:45Well, the early hours of this morning - it was very sudden.
1:09:45 > 1:09:48I'm so sorry.
1:09:49 > 1:09:51Thank you.
1:09:51 > 1:09:56'Miss Horton, I know you're real fond of Tim, and I was wondering...'
1:09:58 > 1:10:00..Em's being buried tomorrow,
1:10:00 > 1:10:04but I don't think he ought to be there.
1:10:04 > 1:10:11- 'I'll come over as soon as I can. I'll take him down to the beach.' - Thanks, Miss Horton.
1:10:11 > 1:10:12Bye.

1:11:22 > 1:11:25Someone for you, Ron.
1:11:25 > 1:11:27Oh.
1:11:36 > 1:11:37Oh!
1:11:37 > 1:11:40- Miss Horton?- Yes.
1:11:40 > 1:11:42How is Tim?
1:11:42 > 1:11:49Oh, he's taking it all right. I'm sorry I rang you at your office, but I didn't know what to do.
1:11:49 > 1:11:53I'll take him to the beach. Perhaps you could come and stay.
1:11:53 > 1:11:57I might just take you up on that. Come in.
1:12:07 > 1:12:14- This is Miss Horton, Tim's friend. - Hello, Mary.- Hello. We're going to the beach. Hello, Dawnie.
1:12:14 > 1:12:16What do you want?
1:12:16 > 1:12:19- I've come for Tim.- I can see that!
1:12:19 > 1:12:21Are you having it off with him?
1:12:21 > 1:12:24Dawnie! It's between me and her!
1:12:24 > 1:12:31Can't you get a real man? RON: What in heaven's name... Keep out, Dad.
1:12:31 > 1:12:35Him doing YOUR garden? You've been doing his!
1:12:40 > 1:12:45Well, a middle-aged woman with a young man, it's just...
1:12:45 > 1:12:50You bloody creep! You miserable, poofter bastard!
1:12:50 > 1:12:56- I ought to knock your teeth in! - Don't let him get you going, Dad.
1:12:56 > 1:13:01I don't know what's going on here. Can I go and pack my bag now?
1:13:01 > 1:13:03You do that, son.
1:13:03 > 1:13:05Hey!
1:13:05 > 1:13:09- You're a beaut, boy. - You're all right, too, Dad.
1:13:16 > 1:13:21- You're very, very wrong, my dear. - RON: I'll show you out.
1:13:33 > 1:13:39Don't take no notice of them, Miss Horton. The one that matters is Tim.
1:13:40 > 1:13:45Em said, "Do the best thing for Tim", and I've got to do that
1:13:45 > 1:13:48because she ain't here any more.
1:13:48 > 1:13:55Em and me had some bloody good years together and I'm going to remember every one of them.
1:13:55 > 1:13:59Maybe Dawnie and Mick wouldn't understand,
1:13:59 > 1:14:06but Mum would want me to raise a glass to her every night at the pub. You know what I mean?
1:14:08 > 1:14:10Thanks.
1:14:11 > 1:14:12I'm ready.
1:14:14 > 1:14:16Yes, Tim.
1:14:19 > 1:14:21Off you go.
1:14:21 > 1:14:24- Bye, Dad.- Bye.
1:14:48 > 1:14:51SHE LAUGHS HYSTERICALLY
1:14:51 > 1:14:54Mary, are you laughing or crying?
1:14:54 > 1:14:57I don't know!

1:17:06 > 1:17:11- I'm a working lady. I have to go. Tim knows where everything is.- Fine.
1:17:12 > 1:17:16- Morning.- Where are you going? - The office.
1:17:16 > 1:17:24- Oh. Will you be back tonight? - No. The weekend. I'll see you both Friday.- Bye.
1:17:40 > 1:17:46- Take good care of your dad.- I will. - I'll call you tonight.- Promise?
1:17:57 > 1:18:00Thank God it's the end of this week.
1:18:03 > 1:18:07- Would you like another drink? - I wouldn't mind.
1:18:11 > 1:18:16You didn't tell me what happened after you picked Tim up last week.
1:18:16 > 1:18:19Oh, nothing really.
1:18:19 > 1:18:22Oh, come on. Something went on.
1:18:22 > 1:18:23No, really.
1:18:24 > 1:18:26All right.
1:18:28 > 1:18:31But you haven't been your usual self all week.
1:18:31 > 1:18:34- Sorry about that.- Thank you.
1:18:39 > 1:18:42We've known each other...
1:18:44 > 1:18:47Well, it's a long time, isn't it?
1:18:47 > 1:18:48Mmm.
1:18:48 > 1:18:53You realise it's almost 20 years since I came from America?
1:18:53 > 1:18:58- And I've never tried to tell you how to run your life.- No, you haven't.
1:18:59 > 1:19:02Do you know what you're about now?
1:19:02 > 1:19:06- Haven't I always?- That's not what I'm asking you.- I know.
1:19:09 > 1:19:11It's late, Tom.
1:19:20 > 1:19:22Good luck. It'll work out.
1:19:22 > 1:19:26Thanks for the drink. And the advice.
1:19:47 > 1:19:49- <- I'm back!
1:19:51 > 1:19:55- I-I'm glad to see ya. - Why aren't you in bed?!
1:19:55 > 1:19:59- I wouldn't go till you got here. - He waited up.
1:20:02 > 1:20:07- I'll go now. Will you come and say good night?- I will in a minute.
1:20:09 > 1:20:11Tea's just made.
1:20:15 > 1:20:17How has it been?
1:20:18 > 1:20:20Good and bad.
1:20:20 > 1:20:23He cried a lot for his mum.
1:20:23 > 1:20:26I'll go say good night.
1:20:40 > 1:20:44Oh, Mary. I wish you'd been here all this week.
1:20:44 > 1:20:46So do I.
1:20:47 > 1:20:50It's sad to remember Mum isn't here any more.
1:20:52 > 1:20:58- It was awful not having you here to talk to. I'm glad you're back.- So am I.
1:21:00 > 1:21:02'Night, Mary.
1:21:02 > 1:21:03Good night.
1:21:45 > 1:21:48It ain't the same without the old girl.
1:21:53 > 1:21:58If anything should happen to me... will you look after Tim?
1:22:01 > 1:22:02Of course I will.
1:22:15 > 1:22:22He's enough to break a man's heart. I don't know what's happening with him and me.
1:22:22 > 1:22:26I don't seem to be able to talk to him any more.
1:22:34 > 1:22:38- I don't want to interrupt your reading.- It's all right.
1:22:38 > 1:22:41I thought you might look at this.
1:22:44 > 1:22:50It's what I was telling you about - my will, bank books, insurance...
1:22:50 > 1:22:57All the things Em and me put a few bob into over the years to make Tim secure.
1:22:57 > 1:23:00I thought you might look after them for me.
1:23:05 > 1:23:07You see, Mary...
1:23:08 > 1:23:10..I'm dying.
1:23:12 > 1:23:14Or put it this way -
1:23:14 > 1:23:17I don't want to live.
1:23:18 > 1:23:22I just can't make myself want to live any more.
1:23:23 > 1:23:27I'm running down like a clockwork monkey.
1:23:27 > 1:23:32Running down, and there's nothing I can do about it.
1:23:33 > 1:23:35And I'm glad.
1:23:36 > 1:23:38I'm glad.
1:23:38 > 1:23:41If I'd been a young man...
1:23:41 > 1:23:46I might not have felt her going as bad as this. Age makes it different.
1:23:49 > 1:23:53She's left a great big hole I can't fill with anything.
1:23:53 > 1:23:55Not even Tim.
1:23:57 > 1:23:59All I want now...
1:23:59 > 1:24:02is to lie with her under the ground.
1:24:04 > 1:24:05Oh, Ron.
1:24:12 > 1:24:16That's right! Hug him! You're always doing that!
1:24:16 > 1:24:18What's wrong?
1:24:19 > 1:24:21Let me talk to him.
1:24:30 > 1:24:31Tim!
1:24:36 > 1:24:38Tim!
1:24:41 > 1:24:43Tim!
1:25:21 > 1:25:23What have I done?
1:25:23 > 1:25:25Nothing. Go away!
1:25:28 > 1:25:30Don't touch me. Don't!
1:25:30 > 1:25:34Please, tell me. What have I done, Tim? Tell me!
1:25:34 > 1:25:35Nothing.
1:25:35 > 1:25:38Tell me what's the matter. Please.
1:25:38 > 1:25:44- I can't.- You can. You've always been able to tell me everything.
1:25:44 > 1:25:46I can't! I can't! I... No.
1:25:54 > 1:26:00You don't like me any more, that's all. You like Dad better than me.
1:26:02 > 1:26:05Since you met him, you haven't liked me!
1:26:05 > 1:26:07Oh, Tim...
1:26:07 > 1:26:13- How could I ever stop liking you? - Well, you did when you met Dad.
1:26:15 > 1:26:20Oh, that's not true, Tim. Oh, please!
1:26:20 > 1:26:25Believe me, that's not true. I like your dad, but...
1:26:25 > 1:26:30- I could never like him as much as I do you.- You don't like me any more!
1:26:30 > 1:26:37It's him you like now. I've seen you hugging him all the time. And I want you to hug ME, but you don't.
1:26:37 > 1:26:40But you do it to him.
1:26:44 > 1:26:46Tim...
1:26:47 > 1:26:49I know that you miss your mom a lot.
1:26:50 > 1:26:54But not in the same way that your dad does.
1:26:55 > 1:26:57You know...
1:26:57 > 1:27:00you're young.
1:27:00 > 1:27:02And he's...old.
1:27:06 > 1:27:08I know how Dad feels.
1:27:10 > 1:27:13He wants to die and lie next to Mum.
1:27:16 > 1:27:19He just wants to be with her.
1:27:21 > 1:27:23He misses her terribly.
1:27:23 > 1:27:27He misses her like I'd miss you if you died.
1:27:33 > 1:27:35Mary...
1:28:50 > 1:28:51Ah!
1:28:52 > 1:28:54Dear God!
1:28:56 > 1:28:57What's wrong?
1:29:06 > 1:29:08Let's go back.
1:29:12 > 1:29:16John, help me. I don't know what to do.
1:29:16 > 1:29:18I feel so guilty.
1:29:21 > 1:29:23When we're together, I...
1:29:23 > 1:29:27I see him looking at me with such confusion.
1:29:29 > 1:29:32He trusts me and I'm hurting him.
1:29:32 > 1:29:35- I promised his father... - What's your solution?
1:29:37 > 1:29:39Only not seeing him again.
1:29:43 > 1:29:47- I can't do that. - There is another way, you know.
1:29:47 > 1:29:48What?
1:29:48 > 1:29:51Why don't you marry him?
1:29:51 > 1:29:56- That's a crazy...! - Is it? Is it really?
1:29:58 > 1:30:00John, that really is crazy!
1:30:00 > 1:30:03Why not marry him?
1:30:04 > 1:30:07It's so frightening.
1:30:07 > 1:30:12For some reason, out of everyone, Tim's fixed his affections on you.
1:30:12 > 1:30:15With you it will stay.
1:30:17 > 1:30:21I stopped thinking of myself being married for so long...
1:30:21 > 1:30:24Mary, what do you really want?
1:30:24 > 1:30:32Do you want Tim to live on his own, while you sit in your house wishing you had the guts to do something?
1:30:32 > 1:30:36You can't walk away from him now, Mary - you know that.
1:30:39 > 1:30:41Tim loves YOU.
1:30:41 > 1:30:44With every part of his being, he loves YOU.
1:30:50 > 1:30:52Will you come to my wedding?
