They were lucky to get anywhere.

497
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,443
Alice's daughter's been married a year,
and she's not got anywhere yet.

498
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,763
Here we go again. Well, I think
you've done very well, David.

499
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:02,006
Well, thank you. I'm glad you like it.

500
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:03,565
MR BROWN: You've a nice view here,
I must say.

501
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,045
DAVID: Yes, not bad, is it?

502
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,209
Bit different round here
since I were a lad.

503
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,051
Look, there's where
the old Coach & Horses used to stand.

504
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,606
MR BROWN: I've rehearsed for many...

505
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,051
Our dad's off again.

506
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,004
Yes, well, wait till you're visiting
your children for your Sunday tea.

507
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:19,451
Oh, give us a chance.

508
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,762
DAVID: Yes, I admit,
I don't suppose you'd recognise it.

509
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:22,961
MR BROWN: It's years since I...

510
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,321
What you looking so gloomy about, then?

511
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,090
Oh, nothing.

512
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,443
- Has she let you down?
- Who?

513
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,286
That girl I saw you out walking with
in Beacon's flat last Sunday.

514
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,767
There might have been six more
since then, for all you know.

515
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,611
There might have, but I bet there hasn't.

516
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:41,688
No, there hasn't.

517
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,768
- (DOORBELL RINGS)
- That's our Jim.

518
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,008
Come on, let's get started.
Here, take that in.

519
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:49,602
- Right.
- Get some practice in.

520
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:51,563
Here he is. Nearly got lost once.

521
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,160
Come on, lad.
We're only just waiting for you.

522
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:55,691
Now we can get stuck in.
I'm glad you've come.

523
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:57,643
- Our Jimmy, about time.
- Sorry I'm late.

524
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,240
Sit down, everybody.
Our Mum next to our Dad. That's it.

525
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,124
Our Victor next to Jimmy.

526
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,686
Enough for a regiment here, love.

527
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,201
Now, then, everybody. Who doesn't
want salmon, then? Mother?

528
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:08,560
Not too much for me. It's too rich.

529
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,648
- CHRISTINE: Righto. Dad?
- MR BROWN: Yes, please, love.

530
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,001
(WHISPERS)
A lass asked me to give you this.

531
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,249
- What?
- A lass asked me to give it to you.

532
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,204
If you've anything to say,
my lad, just say it out loud.

533
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,802
MR BROWN: Thank you, love.
I must say you've done us proud.

534
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,161
- I'm enjoying this, I can tell you.
- DAVID: Are you? Good.

535
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,045
MR BROWN:
Brought back memories to me, David.

536
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:29,605
Know where them block of flats are now?

537
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,324
- No stopping him once he's started.
- MR BROWN: Give over.

538
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,410
Do you know, across the road there,
there used to be a baker's shop.

539
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,608
Us kids used to go there,
when we were young

540
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,451
and for a penny you could get
a bag of stale cakes.

541
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,364
- DAVID: Could you really?
- MR BROWN: You could, that.

542
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,808
And the old schoolhouse, that's
no more. On a Friday afternoon...

543
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,969
I've just remembered I've got to go
and see someone. See you.

544
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:49,764
Where the Hummer does he think he's going?

545
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,963
- He's not had his tea!
- I'm not hungry.

546
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,527
- Oh, I do apologise, David.
- What's the matter with him?

547
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,803
- He's been in a bad mood all day.
- It doesn't matter, Mother.

548
00:30:59,920 --> 00:31:02,161
- Happen he's got some reason.
- Yes, I expect he has.

549
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,408
Now, come on, let's get on with our tea.
David, pass your plate.

550
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,881
Yes, please, I'll have some salad.

551
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:46,161
Oh! Ha-ha!

552
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,521
- Hello.
- Hello.

553
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:49,926
I'm glad you knew which park.

554
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,168
- I didn't think you were gonna come.
- It's all right. It doesn't matter.

555
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:53,281
I'm glad you got the letter.

556
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,209
I thought you might have gone
up to Five Acre Park.

557
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,766
I didn't know what you meant.
Beacon Park or Five Acre Park?

558
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,201
I wasn't sure whether you'd made
other arrangements or what.

559
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,607
It's all right, love.

560
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,728
Shall we walk a bit?

561
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:13,365
Did you get the wedding photographs?

562
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:15,921
No, I couldn't,
'cause we weren't at home, you see.

563
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,408
- Where were you?
- We were over at our Christine's.

564
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,562
(MURMURING)

565
00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:25,928
(SHE LAUGHS)

566
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,084
Shall we sit in there?
It's a bit cold out here, in't it?

567
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,204
- Yes, all right.
- All right.

568
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,566
They must have thought I was trying
to pick someone up in your street.

569
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,365
I was waiting outside your house
for ages before your brother came out.

570
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,761
You'd wait till Christmas
if you wait for him.

571
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,087
I wanted you to get the letter.

572
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:14,565
Well, if I'd have left it till Monday,

573
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,604
it would have had all weekend
to pile up in... you know.

574
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,882
How did you know where I lived?

575
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,651
I know more about you than you think.

576
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,685
Do you?

577
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,849
I didn't want her to come, you know.

578
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:31,769
Well, why did you let her, then?

579
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,771
Well, she's like that, Dorothy.
She just tags on.

580
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,001
I'm sorry.

581
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,684
Who called you Ingrid, then?
Was it your mother or your dad?

582
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:56,565
My mother. She called me
after Ingrid Bergman.

583
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,081
You know, she was in that film
"For Whom The Bell Tolls".

584
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,044
It was her favourite film.
It came out the year I was born.

585
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,162
I've read the book.

586
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,248
I haven't got much time for reading.

587
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,886
I suppose if I'd've been a boy,
she'd have called me after Gary Cooper.

588
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,402
I thought it was a funny name
for an English girl.

589
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,642
I like it.

590
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,682
What, this?

591
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:30,049
Would you rather I was called Mary
or... or Barbara or something?

592
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,050
I like you just the way you are.

593
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:37,046
Do you, Vic?

594
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:40,004
I wouldn't have run after you
if I didn't, would I?

595
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,043
No.

596
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,242
I suppose not.

- Vic?
- Yeah?

609
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,531
You don't think I'm common, do you?

No. Why should I?

You see, you were out last night,
lad, and the night before.

612
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,287
- You've not been in for weeks.
- I won't be in for a few more, either.

613
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:41,368
I don't know where you get to.

614
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,410
And you listen to me. We're going
to our Christine's again this Sunday

615
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,131
and I don't want you sloping off
in the middle of it like you did last time.

616
00:36:47,240 --> 00:36:49,447
Don't bring that up again.
We've heard nothing else from you since.

617
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:51,568
Our Christine didn't mind. Why should you?

618
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,286
Our Christine'll stick up for you.
She always did.

619
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,448
I don't know what David thought, I'm sure,

620
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:58,409
and you could take a lesson or two
from him on how to behave yourself.

621
00:36:58,560 --> 00:36:59,925
Could I?

622
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,280
You never told me where you went to.

623
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,209
No, only 63 times. I had a date.

624
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:06,290
- With a lad?
- No, with a gorilla.

00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,011
- I'll be going, Mother.
- Here you are.

that stuff up from the allotment?

00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,204
- I'll walk down with you, Dad.
- All right.

00:37:18,240 --> 00:37:19,924
- Do I know this lass?
- No.

00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:21,201
No?

631
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,130
Oh, it's all a sly business.

I expect you'll tell me in your own
good time what you want me to know.

- Oh, there's plenty of jobs about.

Are you reckoning on staying on there?

00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:16,445
I don't know.
I don't want to stick there forever.

you know, get around a bit.

fellers who've been abroad and...

anything, sticking at home.

Yeah.

The best time to do a thing
like that's when you're still single.

- I suppose so.
- Aye.

720

and I'd already got
four statements to type.

"Why don't you ask Marjorie to do it?"

"Oh," he says,
"Marjorie's got enough on her plate."

"when there's a last-minute job on."

more time in that cloakroom

messing about with her face
than anyone I know.

- What accident?

1318

But didn't her mother ring you up?

01:47:43,440 --> 01:47:45,727
Can't live at our Christine's forever.

1642
01:47:45,840 --> 01:47:48,446
I'll not go back to Windermere
Crescent again, I know that.

1643
01:47:48,600 --> 01:47:50,682
Who says she'll have you back?

1644
01:47:50,800 --> 01:47:52,165
Who, Ingrid?

1645
01:47:52,280 --> 01:47:57,002
Probably she wants a divorce.
Isn't that the best thing all round?

1646
01:47:58,800 --> 01:48:00,040
What for?

1647
01:48:00,160 --> 01:48:04,529
Well, it amounts to this.
Do you want to stay married or not?

1648
01:48:04,640 --> 01:48:05,971
I don't want to stay married
to her mother.

1649
01:48:06,080 --> 01:48:07,605
To hell with her mother, Victor.

1650
01:48:07,720 --> 01:48:10,041
Cut yourself off. Get yourself
right away from that woman.

1651
01:48:10,160 --> 01:48:11,844
- Where can we go?
- Oh, anywhere.

1652
01:48:11,960 --> 01:48:15,442
Get a flat. Live in a bloody tent
if you've got to.

1653
01:48:15,600 --> 01:48:16,761
I'll tell you something, lad.

1654
01:48:16,880 --> 01:48:19,531
When I was first married, I'd have
lived in yon pig pen over there

1655
01:48:19,640 --> 01:48:21,722
before I'd have lived with her mother.

1656
01:48:21,840 --> 01:48:25,003
VIC: It's not as easy as that.
There aren't all that many places about.

1657
01:48:25,120 --> 01:48:27,851
You know what Ingrid's like.
She wants a semi like her mother's.

1658
01:48:27,960 --> 01:48:29,803
She won't just live anywhere, you know.

1659
01:48:29,920 --> 01:48:32,287
She'll live where she's bloody put.

1660
01:48:33,640 --> 01:48:37,247
You'd look a right clown if she
wouldn't have you back, wouldn't you?

1661
01:49:03,920 --> 01:49:06,366
It's better than the last place
we looked at.

1662
01:49:06,520 --> 01:49:08,761
Do you think so?

1663
01:49:08,880 --> 01:49:12,168
There's a shared bathroom.
That's the only snag.

1664
01:49:12,280 --> 01:49:14,601
We could make something of it.

1665
01:49:14,720 --> 01:49:16,688
(SWITCH CLICKS)

1666
01:49:18,160 --> 01:49:20,288
Let's go, Vic.

1667
01:50:12,280 --> 01:50:15,204
You want to take it, don't you, Vic?

1668
01:50:17,880 --> 01:50:21,043
Beggars can't be choosers, can they?

1669
01:50:21,160 --> 01:50:23,288
Well, what I mean is...

1670
01:50:23,400 --> 01:50:27,405
I mean, you want to take it
because it means we can be together.

1671
01:50:29,880 --> 01:50:33,521
I reckon we ought to give it
a fair try, just the two of us.

1672
01:50:33,640 --> 01:50:38,123
We might be chucking pots at
each other inside a couple of months,

1673
01:50:38,240 --> 01:50:42,040
but at least there'll be
nobody to blame but us.

1674
01:50:43,600 --> 01:50:46,570
We've had a rotten six months, haven't we?

1675
01:50:47,760 --> 01:50:49,649
Yeah.

1676
01:50:50,800 --> 01:50:53,451
- Vic?
- Mm?

1677
01:50:54,720 --> 01:50:59,009
All that time, you know, when I didn't
want you to make love to me...

1678
01:51:00,120 --> 01:51:02,088
well, I did want you to, really.

1679
01:51:02,200 --> 01:51:05,966
But it never seemed right somehow,
while we were living at home,

1680
01:51:06,080 --> 01:51:09,448
while we were living at my mother's.

1681
01:51:09,600 --> 01:51:12,843
You know you're going to have
to stand up to her, don't you?

1682
01:51:12,960 --> 01:51:14,803
Yes.

1683
01:51:23,880 --> 01:51:25,803
It's ages since we were up here together.

1684
01:51:25,920 --> 01:51:28,605
It's getting a bit cold, though, isn't it?

1685
01:51:28,720 --> 01:51:31,929
We never used to worry about that before.

1686
01:51:33,880 --> 01:51:35,882
Supposing somebody comes?

1687
01:51:37,000 --> 01:51:39,241
Well, we're married, aren't we?
