-Maybe it's because you're able to relax.

0:13:420:13:45

-Maybe, do feel relaxed.

-Yeah, don't relax too much.

0:13:450:13:47

When we were li'l, David and his mates made me a little obstacle course.

0:13:500:13:54

How'd you know? You were asleep. Dawn, what you have to do, is talk really quietly...

0:13:540:13:59

Ah, the poor old biddy, she hasn't got any kids to look after her.

0:23:180:23:20

Oh, that's what kids are for.

0:23:200:23:22

Remember Mr Dixon?

He used to beat the crap out of us. Well, the lads, that is.

0:23:240:23:27

-Out of you, you mean.

-Yeah, cos I took the rap for Davy.

-Ah, come on.

0:23:270:23:31

What did he do?

0:23:310:23:33

He was always the one there. When everyone else turned round,

0:23:330:23:36

it was always him standing there going, "What? It wasn't me! It wasn't me, I didn't do it."

0:23:360:23:39

Till they sent you away.

0:23:390:23:41

He had a spell in Borstal.

-Ten years ago, Dawn.

-Well, give or take.

Far from the prying eyes of the State.

0:23:560:23:59

It's why I joined the fuckin' army.

0:23:590:24:01

-Where was David?

-I dunno. Elsewhere.

0:24:180:24:21

You nicked my girlfriend.

0:24:210:24:24

I nicked your girlfriend? I was 13, how could I nick your girlfriend?

0:24:240:24:27

-You looked at her.

-I looked at her? Fuckin' hell.

0:25:010:25:04

Marriage is just so restful, isn't it, Dawn?

0:25:040:25:06

You don't have to choose anymore.

0:25:060:25:09

I don't know.

0:25:110:25:13

Yeah, if you didn't laugh, you'd cry, eh?

-When he got out the tank he was all on fire, Dave. He was burning.

-Nick.

0:27:510:27:55

I pulled away but I tried to save him, and I was like, where's the fire brigade?

0:27:550:27:58

Where are they? I say. But there was nobody there!

0:27:580:28:02

I pulled him down and jumped on top of him. Like that.

0:28:030:28:07

Burned right through, I couldn't save him.

0:28:070:28:09

-It's all right, Nick.

Poor Nick.

0:29:030:29:05

Why didn't you tell me about your dad?

0:29:170:29:20

Because I don't want to think about it. Because...

0:29:200:29:25

Because he was full of hate. Self-hate.

0:29:250:29:28

Because I hate him.

0:29:300:29:32

Why did we come here?

0:29:360:29:39

Because I want to do some good in the place that my dad was a tosser.

0:29:400:29:43

-Do you really like the countryside?

-You're the one with the chickens.

0:29:440:29:48

-David.

-I love you.

0:29:510:29:53

Why has he come back?

0:29:530:29:57

I used to hold him.

We think you need professional help.

There's no shame in going off on one, you know. I could talk to someone.

CHILD READING: I opened the door and I was suddenly in a ruined city.

0:31:430:31:48

It looks as it...as it was bombed.

0:31:480:31:51

The ground was hot ash with dead body scattered everywhere.

0:31:510:31:55

OK, have a look at it.

0:31:550:31:56

If it's one body, it's just the body without the S.

0:31:560:31:59

And then if it's plural, we put I-E-S in there and that makes that bodies.

0:31:590:32:03

But that's brilliant, you've done that really well. Do you want to read on from there?

I was mugged in London. David weighed in, that's how we met.

0:32:340:32:39

-I had some counselling after that.

-Oh.

0:32:390:32:42

-Well, he likes a barney.

-Really?

-Hm-hm.

0:32:430:32:46

I've never seen him fight except that one time.

0:32:460:32:49

What was it like? Really?

0:32:550:32:57

Better than sex.

0:32:590:33:02

Um...

0:33:030:33:05

It's...um...
