0:05:51 > 0:05:53Oh, superb.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56Well, 180 grand a year before bonuses, you know.

0:05:58 > 0:05:59What are you driving?

0:05:59 > 0:06:02You don't really need a car in London.

0:06:02 > 0:06:03It depends where you live.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05Hi, Puli.

0:06:05 > 0:06:08I'm buying a flat in Dalston, so it's pretty central.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12- Buying a flat? - How much are you earning?

0:06:12 > 0:06:13Property is my thing.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15London in particular.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18And you earn enough to buy a flat in Dalston on your own?

0:06:19 > 0:06:20Puli.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Right, a family photo.

0:06:26 > 0:06:27Again?

0:06:27 > 0:06:30If you visited more often, we wouldn't need a photo.

0:06:30 > 0:06:35EVERYONE TALKS AT ONCE

0:06:46 > 0:06:47Ready?

0:06:47 > 0:06:49The proud parents with their offspring.

0:06:50 > 0:06:51Only one single.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53Don't embarrass him.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58The suitcases are in shot.

0:06:59 > 0:07:00Mum, what have you got in here?

0:07:00 > 0:07:01Have you weighed this?

0:07:01 > 0:07:03SHE SPEAKS IN PUNJABI

0:07:03 > 0:07:05Sathnam, back in line, face the front for India!

0:07:06 > 0:07:09- You can come and stand by me. - I'm fine here, just take the photo.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12- Come on. Smile!- Cheese!

0:07:29 > 0:07:30Hi. Hi.

0:07:32 > 0:07:36It's pretty mad. Mum decided to invite the whole family,

0:07:36 > 0:07:38and now I can't get her on her own to speak to her.

0:07:38 > 0:07:39But I will.

0:07:41 > 0:07:42What about you? What are you doing?

0:07:44 > 0:07:45I'm showing Mum and Dad the flat.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Oh, nice!

0:07:47 > 0:07:49- Do you think they like it?- Love it.

0:07:49 > 0:07:51- Especially the garden.- Ah.

0:07:55 > 0:07:56OK, speak later, yeah?

0:07:58 > 0:07:59Bye.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21So what's the postcode on this flat you're buying?

0:08:21 > 0:08:23E8 or N16?

0:08:23 > 0:08:25I'm not sure. I'll look it up.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Sorry, I've just got to...

0:08:27 > 0:08:30I think my parents have an excess baggage problem.

0:08:30 > 0:08:31Long haul is 23 kilos.

0:08:44 > 0:08:45Absolutely ridiculous!

0:09:07 > 0:09:08Come on!

0:09:23 > 0:09:24Seriously?

0:09:43 > 0:09:46- DOCTOR'S VOICE: - This patient, Mr Jagjiti Sanghera,

0:09:46 > 0:09:48suffers from acute paranoid schizophrenia,

0:09:48 > 0:09:53and has been registered as severely mentally ill since 1979.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56Communication is best done through his wife,

0:09:56 > 0:09:59- who also controls his medication. - Fuck.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02Mr Sanghera is visiting his family in India...

0:10:02 > 0:10:03- Fuck.- ..for a short visit.

0:10:03 > 0:10:05DOCTOR'S VOICE FADES OUT

0:10:17 > 0:10:18Sorry.

0:10:21 > 0:10:22- WHISPERS:- The door wasn't locked.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25- What's he doing?- I hope he's not taking everything out.

0:10:25 > 0:10:27Mum's going to go mental.

0:10:29 > 0:10:33- Oh, what are you doing? - I was weighing the luggage.

0:10:33 > 0:10:34No, no, I found this.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37Yeah, yeah, this goes in with Dedi's medicines.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39Oh, my God, I've taken these out twice already!

0:10:39 > 0:10:41- You know about this? - Sathnam, Dedi always takes a note

0:10:41 > 0:10:43like this when he travels, it's fine.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46- What do you mean? - Now, out of here, come on.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49Go and eat. Go downstairs.

0:10:49 > 0:10:52- Look at this.- Make sure that this goes back in the medicine bag.- Done.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Well, what did your brother and sisters say?

0:11:20 > 0:11:21They just act like it's normal.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24You must have spoken to them.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26Yeah, I mean... Not...

0:11:26 > 0:11:28Laura, I'm the youngest.

0:11:28 > 0:11:30They don't always include me in stuff.

0:11:30 > 0:11:34I went to Cambridge, I live here now, they've stayed in Wolves.

0:11:34 > 0:11:35It's like we are in two different worlds.

0:11:35 > 0:11:38They watch Britain's Got Talent for God's sake!

0:11:38 > 0:11:39So do we, sometimes.

0:11:41 > 0:11:42Yeah, I mean...

0:11:43 > 0:11:46I had to come and talk to you about the schizophrenia my dad's had

0:11:46 > 0:11:47since before I was born, because...

0:11:49 > 0:11:52- ..I could have it too.- What do you mean, you could have it too?

0:11:52 > 0:11:54It runs in families, doesn't it?

0:11:54 > 0:11:56In fact, it's practically certain.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59- Come on, Sathnam!- Oh, don't laugh.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01Don't. I'll show you. I can prove it.

0:12:01 > 0:12:02Where's my phone?

0:12:06 > 0:12:08- I've got it here. - Darling, come here.

0:12:11 > 0:12:12Come back to mine.

0:12:14 > 0:12:15Come on.

0:12:16 > 0:12:17Come on, let's get home.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33OK, so I've found this site which gives 15 symptoms

0:12:33 > 0:12:37- associated with schizophrenia, tick the ones that apply.- Mm-hm.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40Now, here's the thing, though. I score more than my dad.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42I get eight dead certs.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44First one up, hypochondria.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Yeah?

0:12:46 > 0:12:47And I'm a hypochondriac, aren't I?

0:12:47 > 0:12:49Yep. Yeah, that one's for definite.

0:12:51 > 0:12:55Right, next, I'm overly interested in religious things.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58- Since when? - What do you mean "since"?

0:12:58 > 0:13:01Mum thinks I'm the Messiah.

0:13:01 > 0:13:03She says I'm special in the eyes of God.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05Laura, I had a topknot until I was 14.

0:13:05 > 0:13:07A symbol of devotion.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09And I think you're going to give me the next one.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11I am preoccupied with sex.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14- Aren't we all?- I am often mistakenly thought to be gay.

0:13:14 > 0:13:15You are not serious?

0:13:15 > 0:13:18- I am a little, yes.- Sathnam. - But there's...

0:13:18 > 0:13:22I have been with you long enough to know that you are many things,

0:13:22 > 0:13:23but you are not mentally ill.

0:13:25 > 0:13:29Having said that, what I find interesting

0:13:29 > 0:13:33is how you have managed to make this all about yourself

0:13:33 > 0:13:35when it already is about you.

0:13:35 > 0:13:40I mean, if your dad has had this severe mental illness

0:13:40 > 0:13:45for the whole of your life, have you really never noticed anything?

0:13:47 > 0:13:50I was just told he had diabetes and had to retire.

0:13:50 > 0:13:52From what?

0:13:52 > 0:13:54What was his job? What did he do?

0:14:00 > 0:14:01I don't...I don't know.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05- I don't know. - You need to talk to someone.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09- Talk to your mum.- She is...

0:14:09 > 0:14:11- She's away now.- When she's back.

0:14:12 > 0:14:13Yeah.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15And in the meantime, why not try

0:14:15 > 0:14:17and talk to your brother and your sisters?

0:14:41 > 0:14:44# You've gone away

0:14:44 > 0:14:48# To a place where I can't touch you

0:14:48 > 0:14:52# And I want to fly away

0:14:52 > 0:14:55# And I'll come right up

0:14:56 > 0:15:01# To your front door just to say

0:15:01 > 0:15:03# Hello

0:15:03 > 0:15:08# And I will try and keep my best

0:15:08 > 0:15:10# Face on

0:15:15 > 0:15:21# You've been gone for oh-so long

0:15:21 > 0:15:22# No

0:15:22 > 0:15:28# And I have to tell you that I'm sorry for my frown

0:15:28 > 0:15:31# But things are not the same for me. #

0:15:31 > 0:15:33- Hey.- Hey.

0:15:33 > 0:15:34You OK?

0:15:34 > 0:15:36- Mm-hm.- Mm-hm.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40I was just thinking about my dad, you know.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42What you said.

0:15:42 > 0:15:43How can I not have known?

0:15:43 > 0:15:44You know?

0:15:45 > 0:15:48The thing is, with my dad, he's always had...

0:15:49 > 0:15:52..such an easy presence.

0:15:52 > 0:15:53I mean, always.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57You know, the only time I've ever seen him upset...

0:15:58 > 0:16:01..was when my sister Puli got married.

0:16:02 > 0:16:04And everyone cries at weddings, don't they?

0:16:06 > 0:16:08As you'll very soon find out.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Don't you try and back out now.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17Cos you said yes, you're stuck with me now.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21That was lovely, being asked.

0:16:21 > 0:16:25Good, because as soon as my parents are back from India,

0:16:25 > 0:16:26there's no waiting for the right moment.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28I'm just... I'm just going to say to Mum,

0:16:28 > 0:16:30"We're getting married, and that's it."

0:16:30 > 0:16:31Right.

0:16:36 > 0:16:37Go on.

0:16:39 > 0:16:40This thing with your dad.

0:16:41 > 0:16:43It's a big deal.

0:16:43 > 0:16:44So...

0:16:46 > 0:16:47HE SIGHS

0:16:47 > 0:16:48Give it its due.

0:16:50 > 0:16:51Deal with one thing at a time.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58- And, just a question...- Mm-hm.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00When you do tell them,

0:17:00 > 0:17:02do you really want to hit them straight off with,

0:17:02 > 0:17:04"We're getting married"?

0:17:05 > 0:17:09Maybe just introduce the idea of me first?

0:17:10 > 0:17:11Yeah?

0:17:19 > 0:17:22Can I just say that that's why you're going to get that promotion?

0:17:22 > 0:17:24- Hm?- Yeah.

0:17:24 > 0:17:26You just step back and see the bigger picture.

0:17:29 > 0:17:31Thank you for this evening.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34I know it's been difficult. I know I've been difficult...

0:17:35 > 0:17:38..but coming back to talk to you was a really good decision.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40SHE LAUGHS What? What?

0:17:42 > 0:17:45You're the only person I know who can hand out praise

0:17:45 > 0:17:48and pat yourself on the back at the same time!

0:18:17 > 0:18:18Sathnam.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20It's arrived.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23Are you going to come and see?

0:18:23 > 0:18:24I'm going to be in it later.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Pretty discreet... Hardly even notice it!

0:18:33 > 0:18:35Rosso corsa.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39- What's all the fuss about? - The Simon Cowell interview.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41God, he's not here, is he?

0:18:41 > 0:18:43No. Apparently, he's a car freak,

0:18:43 > 0:18:46Sathnam plans to drive there in a Ferrari.

0:18:46 > 0:18:49- How vulgar.- It's fantastic.

0:19:01 > 0:19:02- Hi.- Hello.- Oh, hello.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04- How are you?- Good.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06You're so good, doing this.

0:19:06 > 0:19:08Hey.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13PHONE RINGS

0:19:19 > 0:19:20Hi, this is Sathnam Sanghera.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22Sathnam, it's Auntie Jugi.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24Your Auntie Jugi. Hiya.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27- Auntie Jugi, hi.- Can you see us?

0:19:27 > 0:19:28I can see you.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30Yeah. Hang on, Auntie, one sec.

0:19:37 > 0:19:38Yeah...

0:19:38 > 0:19:41There we go. Sorry about that, Auntie. Hi.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Is that where you live?

0:19:43 > 0:19:45No, no, no, I'm at work.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47I thought I saw a kitchen.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50Yeah, we have a kitchen in the office.

0:19:50 > 0:19:51- How are you?- Fine, I'm fine.

0:19:51 > 0:19:54I'm just worried about your mum.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56Why, what's happened?

0:19:56 > 0:19:58She is very upset, Sathnam.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00- Very.- Why?

0:20:00 > 0:20:04Someone told her you're going out with a white girl.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Someone said you had been seen

0:20:07 > 0:20:10being all deewana with a gori in London.

0:20:10 > 0:20:13I have never seen your mum so upset.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55- No.- What do you mean no?

0:20:55 > 0:20:56It was my auntie.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59I was ambushed. I had to say that.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02Otherwise it would spread like wildfire,

0:21:02 > 0:21:04and it can't happen that way.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07It just can't.

0:21:07 > 0:21:09- Those were just words.- Not to me.

0:21:09 > 0:21:12I said, I've told you, I'm going to tell my mum, and I am.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41I'll be the first, Laura, I mean, it's...

0:21:41 > 0:21:43..possible and probable I'll be disowned.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46What, so you'll never tell them about me because...

0:21:48 > 0:21:49..you can't?

0:21:49 > 0:21:51You'll just live two separate lives?

0:21:52 > 0:21:54You're wrong.

0:21:54 > 0:21:55You are so wrong.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59I'm going to drive up and tell them now.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05I've not seen you before.

0:28:05 > 0:28:07Your sisters and brother, yes, but not you.

0:28:07 > 0:28:08I live in London.

0:28:08 > 0:28:12I just wanted to know a bit more about my father's condition.

0:28:12 > 0:28:14That's no problem, no problem.

0:28:23 > 0:28:28OK, one for the heart, blood pressure, diabetes.

0:28:28 > 0:28:31These are for his mental health problems,

0:28:31 > 0:28:36your father is on quetiapine and a monthly injection of Modecate.

0:28:36 > 0:28:37Injections?

0:28:38 > 0:28:41Your father is not so reliable when it comes to taking his medicines,

0:28:41 > 0:28:43so it's just a backup to ensure he doesn't deteriorate

0:28:43 > 0:28:47beyond a certain point. Jagjiti?

0:29:06 > 0:29:10And I can make the sun rise and both the countries are friends,

0:29:10 > 0:29:12I know that, thank you very much.

0:29:15 > 0:29:16Are you all right?

0:29:18 > 0:29:20Yeah, yeah.

0:29:20 > 0:29:23I've just never seen him so animated.

0:29:23 > 0:29:24At home, he just, you know,

0:29:24 > 0:29:28reads the newspaper or watches the shopping channel,

0:29:28 > 0:29:30I mean, obsessively.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32He may think it's talking to him or about him,

0:29:32 > 0:29:34but if he's becoming delusional,

0:29:34 > 0:29:37let's nip it in the bud - we'll increase his dose.

0:29:37 > 0:29:38Don't do it on my say-so.

0:29:38 > 0:29:41Please, I've been monitoring him for some time,

0:29:41 > 0:29:43I think it'll be good to increase a little -

0:29:43 > 0:29:45with his agreement, of course.

0:29:45 > 0:29:46Jagjiti?

0:29:49 > 0:29:50You're taking two, huna?

0:29:53 > 0:29:55So, to keep you well, we will keep it the same,

0:29:55 > 0:29:57but we'll just double the dosage.

0:30:04 > 0:30:06Thank you very much. Thank you.

0:30:07 > 0:30:10You should know that your father is only doing as well as he is

0:30:10 > 0:30:14because of your mother. She enables him to remain at home,

0:30:14 > 0:30:17although, and I say this with some pride,

0:30:17 > 0:30:20Indian families cope because the entire family rallies around.

0:30:20 > 0:30:24I promise you, 95 out of 100 people like your father

0:30:24 > 0:30:27would be in a nursing home by now - and a closed unit, at that.

0:30:29 > 0:30:32Try not to worry. Continuity is everything,

0:30:32 > 0:30:35it's change that causes the problems.

0:30:35 > 0:30:36Change can throw him off balance,

0:30:36 > 0:30:41but, well, since we have seen no aggression for many years and...

0:30:41 > 0:30:42What, aggression?

0:30:42 > 0:30:44What do you mean, aggression?

0:30:44 > 0:30:45No, I mean, he's...

0:30:45 > 0:30:49Please, remember what I said. Let us not be at loggerheads.

0:30:49 > 0:30:52Oh, he's used to people arguing.

0:30:52 > 0:30:53But not you with me.

0:30:55 > 0:30:56So.

0:31:20 > 0:31:23So I just felt I couldn't bring us up now,

0:31:23 > 0:31:25you know, cos the doctor said, at times like this,

0:31:25 > 0:31:28the only reason my dad is not being transferred to a secure unit

0:31:28 > 0:31:31is because his family life is stable.

0:31:33 > 0:31:36- Right.- I mean, you do see that, don't you?

0:31:36 > 0:31:38Of course I do. Yeah, of course.

0:31:40 > 0:31:42- OK.- Listen, do you want me to call Greg

0:31:42 > 0:31:43and get the interview rearranged?

0:31:43 > 0:31:45What time does your dad get out of hospital?

0:34:13 > 0:34:15It's a bit the same, Sathnam!

0:47:46 > 0:47:47With the girls...

0:47:52 > 0:47:54Hey, it's good. It's nice.

0:47:54 > 0:47:55Steady on.

0:47:56 > 0:48:00I went with Dedi to see his doctor at the clinic the other day.

0:48:00 > 0:48:03- Doctor Dutta?- Yeah.- Good man.- Yeah.

0:48:03 > 0:48:06Why don't we ever talk about Dedi's schizophrenia?

0:48:06 > 0:48:08- SHE SIGHS - What's there to talk about?

0:48:08 > 0:48:11Well, Doctor Dutta mentioned aggression.

0:48:11 > 0:48:13What are you saying?

0:48:13 > 0:48:16When was the last time you saw Dedi be aggressive?

0:48:16 > 0:48:18Never, never.

0:48:18 > 0:48:19He's the kindest, gentlest man.

0:48:19 > 0:48:22No, I'm not saying he isn't, and he's on medication now.

0:48:22 > 0:48:24He's been on medication since before you were born.

0:48:24 > 0:48:26Why are you bringing this up now?

0:48:26 > 0:48:28Bindi, I didn't know this till two days ago.

0:48:28 > 0:48:29Of course you knew.

0:48:29 > 0:48:31- I-I didn't.- You knew.

0:48:31 > 0:48:35- I didn't.- Listen, you're off doing important stuff down in London.

0:48:35 > 0:48:37What's that supposed to mean?

0:48:37 > 0:48:40You're there, we're here, Dedi is Dedi.

0:48:40 > 0:48:43Nothing's new. Why make a big deal when things are OK?

0:48:43 > 0:48:47Look, Dedi's happy, he's got Mum, he takes his medicine,

0:48:47 > 0:48:49it is what it is and always has been.

0:48:49 > 0:48:51And if anything needs doing, we rally round.

0:48:51 > 0:48:53- Mummy, I need the toilet. - SHE SIGHS

0:50:33 > 0:50:34- Thanks.- Here we are.

0:50:41 > 0:50:43My mum ironed them.

0:50:48 > 0:50:49These chairs!

0:50:53 > 0:50:55So, do you have siblings?

0:50:55 > 0:50:57Just the one, I'm eldest of two.

0:50:57 > 0:50:58Oh, youngest of four.

0:51:00 > 0:51:04And where did you study medicine?

0:51:04 > 0:51:05At Trinity College, Oxford.

0:51:05 > 0:51:07Cool. English at Cambridge.

0:51:07 > 0:51:08- Ah.- A first.

0:51:10 > 0:51:13Yeah. And are your parents doctors?

0:51:13 > 0:51:16Uh-uh. My mum's a seamstress.

0:51:16 > 0:51:17No, where?

0:51:17 > 0:51:21- SPNL.- Oh, my mum worked at GGED.

0:51:21 > 0:51:23- No?- Yeah, yeah.

0:51:23 > 0:51:24I worked there, too,

0:51:24 > 0:51:28as a kid with my brothers and sisters doing up buttons,

0:51:28 > 0:51:29clipping threads,

0:51:29 > 0:51:31doing 14 hours a day.

0:51:31 > 0:51:33- What?- Child labour!

0:51:34 > 0:51:36Weekends, every holiday.

0:51:36 > 0:51:40If you ever need anything wrapped in cellophane, just call Sathnam.

0:51:42 > 0:51:44So what does your dad do?

0:51:44 > 0:51:45Mine's a bus driver.

0:51:45 > 0:51:47HE LAUGHS

0:51:49 > 0:51:51Sorry, it's...

0:51:56 > 0:51:58Yeah...

0:51:58 > 0:52:01I mean, mine has a severe mental illness.

0:52:02 > 0:52:03Oh.

0:52:03 > 0:52:05That must be really difficult.

0:52:05 > 0:52:09But you and your siblings help support the family, I mean,

0:52:09 > 0:52:11- that's admirable.- No, no.

0:52:11 > 0:52:15I mainly use my wages to buy George Michael records, so...

0:52:16 > 0:52:17I'm sure you helped a bit.

0:52:18 > 0:52:22I seem to have convinced myself there was nothing wrong with my dad,

0:52:22 > 0:52:24so no help needed, which is interesting.

0:52:24 > 0:52:26I lie to myself as well as to others...

0:52:28 > 0:52:30..Kirin. I lie all the time, I lie to everyone -

0:52:30 > 0:52:33I lie to my parents, I lie to my girlfriend.

0:56:22 > 0:56:24You've gone wrong, it is back there.

0:56:24 > 0:56:26Yeah, yes, I'm taking you all the way there, Mum,

0:56:26 > 0:56:28I'm taking you to the hospital.

0:56:28 > 0:56:29What? No.

0:56:29 > 0:56:32- Yes.- What about your interview?

0:56:32 > 0:56:33I'm not due there till two,

0:56:33 > 0:56:36and this is one of the best cars in the world,

0:56:36 > 0:56:39so door-to-door service with style, Mum.

0:56:40 > 0:56:42So if it's OK with you,

0:56:42 > 0:56:45I just thought maybe we could talk some more about those early days.

0:56:50 > 0:56:52- I have to have water! - Yes, yes, I'll get you some.

0:56:58 > 0:57:02Mum, how did you find out that Dedi, you know...?

0:57:10 > 0:57:12Mum...

0:57:12 > 0:57:13Mum...

0:58:05 > 0:58:07THEY GREET ONE ANOTHER

0:58:07 > 0:58:10Hey, stranger!

0:58:10 > 0:58:14Hello, Sathnam, long time no see.

0:58:14 > 0:58:17How are you? You're looking well.

0:58:17 > 0:58:21And I hear you're on your way to interview Mr X Factor.

0:58:21 > 0:58:22I am, yes.

0:58:22 > 0:58:24You've met everyone. Go now.

0:58:24 > 0:58:27When you come back for your mother, if you want,

0:58:27 > 0:58:31we are happy to talk about Mum and Dad in the early days.

0:58:31 > 0:58:34Well, not happy, but it's no problem.

0:58:34 > 0:58:36Your mum texted and asked.

0:58:37 > 0:58:39You have a very important meeting.

0:58:42 > 0:58:43I'll see you in a bit.

0:58:50 > 0:58:52- JOKINGLY:- Go back!

0:59:09 > 0:59:11He cancels you just like that?

0:59:11 > 0:59:15How rude. Mind, he does what he wants, doesn't he?

0:59:15 > 0:59:18He's very full to the brim of himself.

0:59:18 > 0:59:21The way he talks to Louis, I don't like him.

0:59:21 > 0:59:24To be honest, Auntie, I'd rather be here talking to you.

0:59:24 > 0:59:27Now, I'm a little concerned about you eating all this...

0:59:27 > 0:59:30Indian food is the best for building strength,

0:59:30 > 0:59:32and we can talk while we eat.

0:59:42 > 0:59:44It's fine, leave her be.

0:59:48 > 0:59:50Er, OK.

0:59:50 > 0:59:52No, no, no.

0:59:52 > 0:59:54PHONE BEEPS

0:59:54 > 0:59:55Um...

0:59:58 > 1:00:01- Popular!- They're all old ones.

1:00:01 > 1:00:04Auntie, do you mind if I record this?

1:00:09 > 1:00:10Um...

1:00:13 > 1:00:15Mum got as far as telling me about the wedding.

1:00:15 > 1:00:17- Oh, yes.- Yes, very good.

1:00:19 > 1:00:21So, what happened after that?

1:00:24 > 1:00:28We helped them up and they came home with us.

1:00:58 > 1:01:01So my dad was ill when he first arrived in England.

1:01:01 > 1:01:02Ill?

1:01:02 > 1:01:04No, he was not ill when he came here.

1:01:04 > 1:01:06No, not ill at all.

1:01:06 > 1:01:10He was as strong as an ox.

1:01:10 > 1:01:13He was a star kabaddi player.

1:01:13 > 1:01:15Oh, and what a weightlifter he was.

1:01:15 > 1:01:17He said he did weightlifting.

1:01:17 > 1:01:19Oh, he was really very strong.

1:01:22 > 1:01:25He would eat half a packet of butter with each meal.

1:01:25 > 1:01:27At least half a pack.

1:01:27 > 1:01:29So, Dad was happy when he arrived?

1:01:29 > 1:01:31Yes, very happy.

1:01:31 > 1:01:32Happy, happy.

1:01:32 > 1:01:37He worked hard, played hard and he was like everyone else.

1:01:37 > 1:01:39Never fighting or anything, nothing.

1:01:41 > 1:01:44That's not entirely true.

1:01:44 > 1:01:49Soon after he arrived, he becomes...strange.

1:01:51 > 1:01:53Yes.

1:01:53 > 1:01:54He was different.

1:01:54 > 1:01:58He...he gets upset over nothing.

1:01:58 > 1:01:59Nothing at all.

1:02:00 > 1:02:01And after the wedding...

1:02:03 > 1:02:06..then it's worse, much worse.

1:02:44 > 1:02:49Now, he's in fights all the time.

1:02:49 > 1:02:54Hurting himself, getting sacked from every job,

1:02:54 > 1:02:55and, of course,

1:02:55 > 1:02:57he takes it out on your mother.

1:03:01 > 1:03:02It was...

1:03:03 > 1:03:07..around then that some people started saying he'd gone mad.

1:03:07 > 1:03:10Who said that? We never said that, and we never would.

1:03:10 > 1:03:12- They were right, though, weren't they?- What do you mean?

1:03:12 > 1:03:15Auntie, something went wrong with his mind, he became ill.

1:03:15 > 1:03:18Yes, well, everything got better when you arrived.

1:03:18 > 1:03:19No, it was nothing to do with me.

1:03:19 > 1:03:23Yes, when you were born, when you arrived, from then he got better.

1:03:23 > 1:03:25You changed everything.

1:03:25 > 1:03:28It was the medicine that made him better, the medication he was on,

1:03:28 > 1:03:30it was nothing to do with me.

1:03:31 > 1:03:35Well, you should also know a lot of people think maybe your mum does

1:03:35 > 1:03:38something. No, I have to say this.

1:03:38 > 1:03:40- Does something?- Yes.

1:03:40 > 1:03:42My mother, your grandmother,

1:03:42 > 1:03:45she says she has done something to...

1:03:45 > 1:03:50- Like what?- Like magic, black magic, like a witch.

1:03:50 > 1:03:52We think she cast spells on your father.

1:03:52 > 1:03:55Mum is the only reason my dad survived.

1:03:56 > 1:04:00But why do Indians always need to blame someone?

1:04:00 > 1:04:02It's an illness,

1:04:02 > 1:04:03just an illness.

1:04:16 > 1:04:19This illness you speak of...

1:04:19 > 1:04:22- Schizophrenia.- Yes.

1:04:22 > 1:04:24It affects young people?

1:04:24 > 1:04:26That's when it often sets in, yes.

1:04:26 > 1:04:28And it runs in the family?

1:04:28 > 1:04:29It can, yes.

1:04:30 > 1:04:33So is that what your sister has?

1:04:36 > 1:04:38Is that what Puli has, too?

1:04:45 > 1:04:46It is, yeah.

1:05:07 > 1:05:08Hi.

1:05:11 > 1:05:14- Yeah, good.- Never come in! - Eh, shush!

1:05:14 > 1:05:16- Hello! How are you?- OK.

1:05:18 > 1:05:19Is Puli in?

1:05:19 > 1:05:21Yes, of course. Puli!

1:05:28 > 1:05:29Can we talk?

1:05:51 > 1:05:53Sorry.

1:05:54 > 1:05:55I find it easier to write things down.

1:05:59 > 1:06:00Here.

1:06:02 > 1:06:03Do you want me to read it?

1:06:06 > 1:06:09"Sathnam's been asking Mum the same questions I asked once.

1:06:12 > 1:06:14"He wants to know what happened.

1:06:15 > 1:06:17"He's like me, very like me.

1:06:17 > 1:06:19"We might have been the same if things were different.

1:06:21 > 1:06:25"I was clever, too, but as soon as I started to get ill, I slowed down.

1:06:25 > 1:06:27"Once I was on medication..."

1:06:27 > 1:06:29No, just the first bit.

1:06:29 > 1:06:30No, it's so true.

1:06:31 > 1:06:33- Yeah.- I was cleverer than you.

1:06:33 > 1:06:35You are cleverer.

1:06:52 > 1:06:53I've been...

1:06:55 > 1:06:58..very wrapped up in myself.

1:07:01 > 1:07:06In my work, and in my life in London, too wrapped up in...

1:07:09 > 1:07:11And I want to be a better brother.

1:07:15 > 1:07:16Oh, yeah.

1:07:20 > 1:07:21You know how...

1:07:23 > 1:07:26..space capsules separate?

1:07:27 > 1:07:28And are on their own?

1:07:34 > 1:07:35I'm a part.

1:07:39 > 1:07:41I punch below sometimes.

1:07:43 > 1:07:48I can't help thinking my life could have gone a different way.

1:07:48 > 1:07:51- Yeah, it could have. - And I still try, I'm not lazy,

1:07:51 > 1:07:53I've never stopped having goals.

1:08:00 > 1:08:03Do you know when I knew how ill I was?

1:08:07 > 1:08:09It was when I was first sectioned.

1:08:17 > 1:08:18You looked disgusted.

1:08:38 > 1:08:42Mum says that was the day you went and had your topknot cut off.

1:08:44 > 1:08:47She said that was the day she knew you would leave us.

1:09:16 > 1:09:18Puli...

1:09:23 > 1:09:25SOBS: I'm so... I'm sorry.

1:09:27 > 1:09:30I don't know why, but I need you to know how I feel.

1:09:32 > 1:09:34You more than anyone, I think...

1:09:35 > 1:09:39..because we are almost the same.

1:09:39 > 1:09:40It's like...
