0:03:45 > 0:03:50We were gonna give it back. Stalled it. The others legged it.

0:03:50 > 0:03:54Shocking. Rule number one. If you're gonna be the getaway driver,

0:06:20 > 0:06:21Yeah.

0:06:21 > 0:06:25Maybe not a good idea to let on to your mum that you've seen me here.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27I won't.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29All right.

0:09:18 > 0:09:19You with anyone?

0:09:19 > 0:09:21No.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26Maybe you could come back to live with us.

0:09:26 > 0:09:28The chances of that are poor to piss poor, son.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30Your mum'd never have me back.

0:09:30 > 0:09:33She might change her mind. Women do - it's a well-known fact.

0:09:33 > 0:09:37- Yeah? Not your mum. - SHIP HORN BLARES

0:09:39 > 0:09:41I'm always lookin' out for you on that.

0:09:41 > 0:09:45- Sometimes I reckon I've seen you on it.- Yeah?

0:09:47 > 0:09:50- D'you remember a snow globe you got me?- Snow globe?

0:09:52 > 0:09:54It had a nativity in it. Cracked.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Yeah! Yeah, I do remember it now, yeah.

0:10:00 > 0:10:03Mary's head fell off, we stuck it back on with Bostick.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06- You can see the join. - The thought that counts.

0:10:08 > 0:10:13- You kept that all this time? - The snow doesn't snow. Never did.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16Snow's overrated anyway.

0:10:19 > 0:10:20Kept this an' all.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30I remember that day. Bits of it.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42I was havin' a banana milkshake.

0:10:43 > 0:10:47We were in that cafe at Hollyhead. Before we got the train home.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57Why did you leave us?

0:10:57 > 0:10:59Your mum never told you?

0:10:59 > 0:11:01She doesn't talk about it.

0:11:01 > 0:11:05Just says you let us down. Better off without you.

0:11:05 > 0:11:06Yeah, maybe she's right.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11I don't feel better off without you.

0:11:40 > 0:11:42D'you ever think about me dad?

0:11:44 > 0:11:47Not if I can help it. Why?

0:11:48 > 0:11:50He might've changed.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53Yeah. And there's a pot of gold at the end of every rainbow.

0:11:53 > 0:11:55You don't know nothing, you.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58You're full of shit. You ever wonder why you're on your own?

0:12:33 > 0:12:37NOLAN! Dive in or get down, lad!

0:14:12 > 0:14:16- Hey! Did you do that?- Yeah!- What the bleedin' hell are you playin' at?

0:14:16 > 0:14:20- You said you'd meet me!- I know, but something came up and I'm sorry.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22No need for that, though, was there?

0:14:22 > 0:14:24Going to cost a few bob to get that fixed.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Oh, eh!

0:14:28 > 0:14:32- Robbie, where you going? - Mum said you were a loser.- Cheers(!)

0:14:32 > 0:14:36- Always was, always will be! - At least I'm consistent.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39ENGINE REVS

0:14:39 > 0:14:41All right, I'm a loser. I'll make it up to you.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43- Forget it.- Come on, give us a chance.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45I said forget it. Go back to Ireland, I'm not arsed.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48All right, I'll piss off, but let me do one thing first.

0:15:00 > 0:15:01HE HONKS HORN

0:15:01 > 0:15:03It's Robbie.

0:15:37 > 0:15:41Viagra? What the bloody hell d'you want Viagra for?

0:15:41 > 0:15:43You're 81 years of age, for Christ's sake!

0:15:43 > 0:15:46You'll be pole vaulting all the way to that daycare centre,

0:15:46 > 0:15:50if you're not careful. Sheila?

0:15:50 > 0:15:52Home Help Sheila? Dad!

0:15:52 > 0:15:57The only thing she's trying to get her hands on is your pension!

0:15:57 > 0:16:02Is she there? If she's there, put her on. Put her on!

0:16:03 > 0:16:06Listen, you. If you don't keep your filthy mitts off him,

0:16:06 > 0:16:08I'm going to come round there

0:16:08 > 0:16:10and shove that can of Mr Sheen so far up your arse,

0:16:10 > 0:16:13it'll take you a fortnight to shit it out. Do you hear me?

0:16:13 > 0:16:15- Salt and vinegar, love?- Please.

0:16:17 > 0:16:21Hey! Get out! What are you doing, you cheeky little twat?!

0:16:25 > 0:16:26What did you see in me mum?

0:16:27 > 0:16:30I didn't. I fancied her mate, Josie.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32She had bigger tits.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34She had a gob to match, though, so I sacked that idea.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39What you reckon she saw in you?

0:16:39 > 0:16:40I could dance.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45There's three things women love.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48One, a man who can dance. Two, a man who'll listen.

0:16:48 > 0:16:51The trick with that is to pretend you're listening when you're not.

0:16:51 > 0:16:54And, three, always agree with everything they've said,

0:16:54 > 0:16:57even when they're wrong. Simple.

0:16:59 > 0:17:04- I can't dance. - Everyone can dance.- I can't.

0:17:08 > 0:17:11Get out. Go on, get out.

0:17:12 > 0:17:16Go on, I'll teach you a few moves. Just go from side to side.

0:17:16 > 0:17:20Oh, what?! One, two, three, four. One, two three.

0:17:20 > 0:17:25MUSIC: "The Snake" by Al Wilson

0:17:25 > 0:17:30That's good! You're getting there. Feeling it, yeah.

0:17:30 > 0:17:33Then you've go to and get your fancy moves.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42Do your high kicks. Come on, feel it.

0:17:42 > 0:17:44In time to the music.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Something like that.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59Get the basics right and everything else will follow.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06Tell you what, mate... just stick to two and three.

0:18:13 > 0:18:17How come you can dance and I can't?

0:18:17 > 0:18:20Dunno. Take after me dad. Your grandad.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24What was he like?

0:18:26 > 0:18:29- Do you want to be buried or cremated?- Surprise me.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31- 'Bout you?- Neither.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34They reckon drowning's a good way to go, don't they?

0:18:34 > 0:18:36Dunno, never tried it.

0:18:37 > 0:18:40- D'you reckon he can hear us? - Doubt it.

0:18:40 > 0:18:44- He was deaf! - HE LAUGHS

0:18:46 > 0:18:49- Are you like him?- He was the talk of the village, me dad.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51Always tellin' stories. Used to sit us on his knee

0:18:51 > 0:18:54- and tell us all about the old days in Killarney.- How old were you?

0:18:54 > 0:18:5829! Nah, dunno, four or five.

0:18:58 > 0:19:01Used to take us there in the school holidays.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04- Took us to the Blarney Stone. - What's that?- If you kiss it,

0:19:04 > 0:19:06it's meant to give you the gift of the gab.

0:19:06 > 0:19:09- So you'll have better luck chattin' up girls.- Did it work?- Yeah.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12- Shagged this girl called Mary there. - On the Blarney Stone?- Yeah.

0:19:12 > 0:19:16Me dad went mental. But I could tell he was thinking, "Nice one, son".

0:19:17 > 0:19:19You're meant to look up to your dad.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22I did. He was a hero.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29Are you like him?

0:19:33 > 0:19:35Come on. It's getting cold.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19- Leanne!- What do you want? - Can I hold him?- No!

0:20:19 > 0:20:23- Please, just for a bit?- Why are you suddenly arsed about him?

0:20:23 > 0:20:26You don't even know his name.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31Buy him some nappies.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34That wouldn't even buy him one.

0:20:34 > 0:20:37It's all I've got. Please?

0:20:39 > 0:20:42- Will it mean you'll leave us alone? - Yeah.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51Like that, divvy! He's not a sack of spuds.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56Hey, mate.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58It's Elliott.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01Hi, Elliott.
