Part 3 of 8 of the ITV drama. Laura and Paul, the owners, move into the house once the roof is finished. Joe finally gets around to hiring electricians.
(Apologies, but for those looking for Episode 4 it seems to of disappeared for reasosn as yet unknown to me. I shall see if I can find out what the problem is and try to get it uploaded again after I've uploaded the rest of Series 1 in the next 2 or 3 days. Sadly this does seem to be a habit - or occupational hazard - of Dailymotion with some of my videos sometimes).

00:00One, two, three, four, five.
00:06Best of three, best of three.
00:13You're not ready for me yet.
00:16Hang on, they're here.
00:19Bloody hell, they're early.
00:23So what are you going to tell them?
00:26Joe?
00:27It's going to be fine.
00:29We can make it fun, exciting.
00:32Hey, we're moving into our new home.
00:34This is what we've been waiting for.
00:37Okay, I know it's not ideal, but we've got to do this.
00:44You say something.
00:49At least we found a parking space.
00:53Just apologise, they'll be fine.
00:55I mean, it's not as if you haven't been trying to find a strap.
00:58All right, relax, it's not a problem.
01:04But I mean, they're expecting the whole house to be rewired.
01:09And it will be.
01:11Now come and welcome Mr and Mrs Atkins to their new home.
01:17Hello there.
01:19Just stopped work for a minute.
01:21Thought we'd wish you all the best, Nala.
01:23All the best.
01:24Oh, that's nice.
01:26Sorry, there's no red carpet, Paul.
01:28How's it going?
01:29Roof's done.
01:30Yeah, we've nearly finished all the structural work.
01:33And we finally found a good electrician.
01:35What, he's not even started yet?
01:37It's been really hard to get someone to meet our standards, hasn't it, Trev?
01:40Yeah.
01:42I'm sorry, I just assumed you wanted an NIC EIC approved firm.
01:46Yeah, of course.
01:47Yeah, well, we tried a firm in Newcastle, fully booked.
01:50And then we checked out these guys in London.
01:54So you've just found a company worth thinking of using, haven't you, Trev?
01:57Yeah.
01:58Top notch.
02:00What's the name, Trev?
02:01Wired Firm Light.
02:04Yeah, well, I'm meeting them at 11, so we should have them sorted by the morning.
02:12Right, well, I'll show you to the room that we've cleared.
02:15I'll get these.
02:24This is the room.
02:26It's not too bad.
02:28And there's no doubt that you should be all right.
02:31And there's a bathroom still in use across the hall.
02:34And shall we leave our keys at the section when we go out?
02:36Go on.
02:37Sorry.
02:39Well, I'll leave you to it.
02:41If you don't want anything, just give us a shout.
02:43Thanks, Trev.
02:44Thanks.
02:46What time's breakfast?
02:47Oh, stop it, will you?
02:50I hate this.
02:52I hate showing around your own house by Sunday.
02:54Labourer.
02:56Let's just be rational for a minute.
02:58We're doing the right thing, OK?
03:00No rent, no money worries.
03:02As soon as I've sorted out here, get into a routine.
03:05I know there's some other contracts coming up at work.
03:08Big ones, really soon.
03:10We could get another flat, maybe in less than a month.
03:12Decision's made, Paul.
03:14This is not how it should be.
03:16It's such a mess.
03:19Look at Joe, pissing himself.
03:24Look, I know you wanted this to be special for the house to be finished,
03:28but it could be exciting watching it take shape.
03:31I've got the time to settle us in.
03:33You haven't told them what's happening at work, have you?
03:36We don't have to explain ourselves to anyone.
03:38Take them a couple of days to realise I'm skiving anyway.
03:41Now, go to work, stop worrying,
03:43and when you get back, your lovely wife will be ready and waiting for you.
03:47Promise?
03:48Promise.
03:49I wouldn't blame her if she wasn't.
03:51Paul.
03:52Go.
03:54Thanks.
04:00Take this with you anyway.
04:01If something crops up, give us a call.
04:05Yeah, I'm sorry to disappoint you,
04:07but from the scale of work you've been doing up in Newcastle,
04:09I really don't think my firm's big enough to accommodate you.
04:12Sure, sure.
04:13Don't worry about it.
04:14Craig Jackson.
04:16He's normally got plenty on.
04:20I don't think I know him.
04:21Oh, Craig's got lots of good ideas.
04:23He thinks big, you know.
04:25Yeah, you'd like him.
04:27I mean, he's a bit of a lad.
04:28You get on with him and he'll have a job for life.
04:31Tell you what, I'll give him a bill.
04:34Ah, cheers, Jack.
04:36Another?
04:37Yeah, cheers.
04:40Same again, please, sir.
04:42Don't they mind meeting you in a pub?
04:44It's a good place to do business.
04:46It really helps being surrounded by beautiful things.
04:51Thanks, right.
04:54You're on.
04:56Success at last.
04:58It's only a matter of time.
05:00Didn't I tell you?
05:03Are you ever going to get started?
05:06OK.
05:09Maybe we should wait till Joe gets here.
05:11We'll be here all day, man.
05:14Right.
05:19Is this the right wall?
05:22Yeah.
05:23Yeah.
05:24Yeah.
05:25Yeah.
05:26Yeah.
05:27Yeah.
05:28Yeah.
05:29Yeah.
05:30Yeah.
05:31Yeah.
05:32OK.
05:33What other wall could it be?
05:34I don't know, not my problem, mate.
05:36You started it.
05:37Started what?
05:38Maybe I should ask Laura.
05:41No.
05:42Then it'll look like I don't know what I'm doing.
05:45You don't?
05:47Yes, I do.
05:48Well, hit it, then.
05:49Don't tell me what to do.
05:51Either hit it or don't hit it.
05:53I'm hitting it.
05:54Good.
05:55Right.
05:56Right.
06:01Ha-ha.
06:32Hello.
06:33It's all coming on well, isn't it?
06:36Yeah, we're delighted.
06:37So you should be.
06:40I brought you a card.
06:43To welcome you to the neighbourhood.
06:45Thank you.
06:47So, you're a neighbour?
06:49Yes.
06:50That's, er, Patricia White.
06:53Hi.
06:54Laura Atkins.
06:57Hello.
06:58Janet said there'd been a buyer,
07:00but I didn't think you'd be moving in for months.
07:03Well, no, neither did we.
07:06Sorry, who's Janet?
07:08Oh, Margaret's niece.
07:10Margaret?
07:11Margaret, my friend.
07:13She used to live here.
07:15She died.
07:16Oh, yes, of course.
07:18I'm sorry.
07:19Oh, I should be going.
07:22I've got my own key.
07:24Always useful if you get lost.
07:26Always useful if you get locked out.
07:29Or go away.
07:37Bye.
07:38Bye.
07:59This is it.
08:01It's fantastic.
08:03It's distinctive.
08:05So, you're looking at what?
08:08Seven, eight flats?
08:10Thirteen.
08:13Studios.
08:14Yes.
08:15Of course, I see you.
08:16That is a fantastic window, isn't it?
08:19Jack says you're doing a domestic house renovation at the moment.
08:22Yes, just to tie the firm over while we settle in down here, you know.
08:25Well, what about your work up in Newcastle?
08:27Oh, it's mainly jobs like this.
08:29Yeah, we've just done this quayside development.
08:31I mean, you know the big bridge over the Tyne?
08:33Yeah.
08:34We built that.
08:36Pillock.
08:37No, we did some work on a warehouse next to the bridge, you know.
08:40Luxury apartments.
08:42So, it's Purvis and Purvis then, yeah?
08:44That's right.
08:45How about the other Purvis?
08:46That's my brother.
08:48So, you say you want these on the market in what?
08:51Three months' time?
08:52Yeah, the agents want to.
08:54Early sales always look good.
08:56Nah, you get more if you waited.
08:58What's that got to do with you?
09:00Don't know, that's what I told them.
09:01Do you mind?
09:02No, go on.
09:03Yeah, that's our two-bedroom.
09:04Both en suite.
09:05And there's room in here for a mini-gym as well.
09:09Nice.
09:11Luxury feel, yeah. Economy of space.
09:14Great touch.
09:21I'll wait, Simon.
09:22I'll get a move on.
09:23I'm busting for the pay.
09:33Trevor?
09:34We're nearly done, Laura.
09:36Cross your legs.
09:47Trevor?
09:48Yes, we're all done.
10:02We're done upstairs?
10:03Yeah.
10:17Yeah?
10:19Oh, Trevor.
10:20How's it going?
10:24What?
10:26What are you thinking?
10:28I'm thinking about you.
10:29What?
10:31What do you think I'm doing?
10:33I'm on a building site looking at some electrical work this firm's done.
10:37I think I'm going to go with them, Trevor.
10:38They seem good.
10:39So stop panicking.
10:41Goodbye.
10:43Cheryl, you got a yellow pages?
10:50Have a look under E.
10:59Dear Karen.
11:14Trevor?
11:16Trevor?
11:30What?
11:31Did you knock this wall down?
11:34Yeah.
11:37I looked at the plans.
11:39You should have waited.
11:41They're going to go mad with you. They're going to go mad.
11:43You should have waited.
11:46And I'd have given you a hand.
11:48You've done a good job.
11:53Was that a joke?
11:54Was that a joke?
11:58Yeah, well, if I hung around waiting for you all day, nothing would get done.
12:03Where are the electricians?
12:05They'll be here first thing in the morning.
12:15Hasn't Karen got her phone, Mike?
12:19Yeah, but I can see what I really want her with a letter.
12:22I'm still there for her.
12:24I still care.
12:26Still exist, you mean?
12:28Just a bit stuck, though.
12:30Well, why don't you tell her you've been to Buckingham Palace?
12:33Because I haven't.
12:35Yes, we know that.
12:36I can't lie.
12:38How about you tell her you knocked down a wall, then?
12:42I'll put that.
12:44How about then? Tell us what you've got so far.
12:47Dear Karen, how are you?
12:48Karen, how are you?
12:50I knocked down a wall today.
12:56You should be on the first train down, Trevor.
13:06I'm not in a bad mood, but I will be if you don't let me see where I'm going.
13:15Eddie?
13:17Open them.
13:34I thought you hated camping.
13:36Yeah, I do if it's outdoors.
13:39Shall we christen it?
13:47I'm sorry.
13:51But in two years, I'm going to be fully qualified, mate.
13:54So you're Doctor Two, then?
13:56No, no, I'm a property magnate.
13:59Is he with you?
14:01Trevor?
14:03Physically, he is, yeah.
14:05He's Trevor.
14:06Right.
14:08Hi.
14:10I'm Melanie.
14:12Hi.
14:14Trevor.
14:15I know.
14:23Do you want alligator?
14:25Yes, this one.
14:27Nice, I believe.
14:28Is it?
14:29I don't know.
14:31Who's that?
14:33I don't know.
14:35Who's that?
14:37Probably just one of the builders emptying eight pints of brown ale into the toilet.
14:41I don't actually like that, if you bother to find out.
14:49You scared me.
14:51Hello, again.
14:54Oh, I've baked you a cake.
14:56That's kind of you.
14:59Ah, the master of the house.
15:01Hi, I'm Paul.
15:04Lovely to meet you.
15:05Patricia.
15:07Here.
15:08Thanks.
15:09Will this be the bedroom, then?
15:11Yeah, that's right.
15:13Felicity's held on.
15:15Don't we?
15:17Oh, I'll be off.
15:19Don't want to intrude.
15:21See you soon.
15:22Bye.
15:23Bye.
15:29She seems nice.
15:30Get used to her.
15:32Wow, marble cake.
15:34I love this stuff.
15:35Oh, well, that's all right, then.
15:38Well, how did she get in?
15:41Oh, she's got a key.
15:51Hello, again.
15:55Look, I have to go.
15:58Letters to write.
16:00I'll see you.
16:01I'll see you later.
16:03Is that a promise?
16:04Trevor, come back.
16:06I want to go with him.
16:07I can't bring you home, Beth.
16:08No room?
16:09You'll sleep together, then?
16:11Well, not through choice.
16:12I'm going to go and say goodnight to my Trevor.
16:14Yeah, I think he'll manage all right without you.
16:16I know he wants to see me.
16:17What number is it?
16:18Twenty-three.
16:22Is there a park nearby?
16:27No.
16:33Trevor?
16:35Where are you?
16:45Trevor?
16:47Where are you?
16:49Melanie?
16:51There you are.
16:52You've been hiding.
16:53What are you doing?
16:54Looking for you.
16:55Oh, come on.
16:56You've got to get out of here.
16:57Come and get me.
17:01You're going to have to come with me.
17:03Let's just stay here.
17:04Come on.
17:12Did you hear something?
17:18Are we enjoying it now?
17:19No, not at all.
17:20Oh, you're such a liar.
17:21Come on.
17:22We're all alone.
17:23You know you want to.
17:24Oh, hey, I don't.
17:25Stop it.
17:29What do we do now?
17:30Shh.
17:31Why?
17:32Let's grab a night.
17:33If I want to scream out loud, I will.
17:34No, please don't.
17:35No.
17:39Hello.
17:54Whatever you get up to in your own time is your business.
17:56But...
17:57Laura, it wasn't my...
17:58Look, you don't need to explain.
17:59I know it must be difficult for you being away from home.
18:02Laura, listen.
18:04Please, Trevor.
18:05What do you take me for?
18:06I don't do things like that.
18:08The fact of the matter is,
18:09we don't want people having it off on our sitting room floor.
18:13This is our home,
18:14and we'd like just a tiny bit of respect, OK?
18:16I don't mind how you do it.
18:18Just get it sorted, OK?
18:20Well, you could always use the shower and the van.
18:22It's all mod cons in there.
18:23We wouldn't mind, would we, Trevor?
18:24Don't take the piss, Simon.
18:25Sorry, Paul.
18:26We'll have the hot water on when you get back.
18:28Fine.
18:29Laura, I'm off.
18:30No, darling, we need to make a decision on the conservatory.
18:32Talk about it when I get home.
18:33Now, Simon?
18:34Well, basically,
18:35Joe's worked out that it'll cost twice as much to repair
18:37than if we were to just knock the thing down and start again.
18:40That's that, then? We knock it down?
18:41No, it's not.
18:43OK, we keep it.
18:45I think it's quaint, don't you?
18:46Quaint?
18:48Yeah, you know, Paul, quaint.
18:49As in attractively unusual,
18:50often of an old-fashioned style.
18:53But if we can't afford to repair it...
18:55I think a new one'll look fine.
18:57Yeah, I know what you mean.
18:59That's that, then?
19:01Yeah, I think we should keep it.
19:02Keep this one.
19:03I like it, it's beautiful.
19:05Decision's made.
19:06What?
19:07Look, Laura, I'm going to be late.
19:08We'll talk about it later, OK?
19:09Bye.
19:16Haven't you got any work to be getting on with?
19:20No.
19:31Looks like you lost that one, Liz.
19:37Start clearing the conservatory.
19:38Can't afford to have it repaired.
19:40It's got to go.
19:41Well, I'll...
19:42No, don't, Trevor, just...
19:45I'll sort it with Laura, OK?
19:51Basically, it's a complete overhaul.
19:55I think the kitchen's still powered by steam.
19:57No problem, mate.
19:59Right, boss, morning.
20:00Dead simple.
20:01Rip everything out and start again.
20:02Ah, it'll be a doddle.
20:04We'll need to upgrade the power,
20:05put a new circuit on each floor,
20:07and we'll put in spurs on every level
20:09so you've got enough power points in each room.
20:11Does that sound all right?
20:13Perfect.
20:14Any problems, Trevor'll sort you out.
20:18Joe?
20:21Plumbers?
20:23I'm off to find us a plumber.
20:28I was just making some tea.
20:30Do you want some?
20:31What did you say?
20:32Tea.
20:33Do you want a cup of tea?
20:34Sorry, can't understand what you're saying.
20:37You Welsh?
20:38No, no, Newcastle.
20:39I'll tell you what, Trev,
20:40why don't you put a kettle on like a murderer, cap'n?
20:43Yeah.
20:44Yeah.
20:51Hello, there.
20:53Don't mind me.
20:54Laura said I could pop in any time.
20:57Right.
20:59I live next door.
21:01Ah, right.
21:02Hello.
21:03Wonderful house.
21:05Great, isn't it?
21:06And you're making it a home again.
21:08Absolutely.
21:09Bring it up to date,
21:10out with the old, in with the new.
21:12Yes.
21:13Oh, I'm sorry.
21:14I'm sorry.
21:15I'm sorry.
21:16I'm sorry.
21:17I'm sorry.
21:19Yes.
21:20Oh, I've got some big plans.
21:21I mean, that's going to go for starters.
21:24What?
21:25Laura wanted to keep it but they can't afford the repairs.
21:27You're pulling down Margaret's Conservatory?
21:29Well, we don't do things by halves.
21:31Purvers and Purvers are very high standards, you know.
21:37You okay?
21:39Margaret loved it.
21:40It was her special place.
21:44Yeah, well, I can see that but...
21:46You spent so much time there,
21:47Particularly, well, towards the end, before she went into hospital.
21:52Right.
21:53You can't just knock it down.
21:57I'm sorry.
22:10Bloody hell.
22:14We've had a tip that the local authority are gonna flog it.
22:17We need to put in a bit of sharpish.
22:20Well, what do you reckon?
22:24Yeah.
22:26Yeah.
22:27It's an impressive place.
22:29I'd be happy for Trevor to have a look if you want.
22:31No. No, no, it's not necessary. Trevor generally trusts my instincts.
22:35Teamwork, eh?
22:37What's his background, then?
22:39Building work, you know.
22:40I mean, is he a joiner like you?
22:42Ah, I see.
22:44Bricklaying.
22:45And plastering. He started off as a plasterer.
22:48Now, you'll like Trevor.
22:49He's, er, unique.
22:51I'll give the officer a ring and the three of us will get together.
22:54Make a night of it, if you want.
22:57Excellent.
22:59Oh.
23:10Thanks for telling us you were back.
23:13Sorry.
23:14You've just missed Simon. He's gone down the pub already.
23:16The electricians are getting on all right. They seem OK.
23:20I was gonna cook.
23:21Macaroni cheese.
23:23Trevor, perfect special.
23:25Well, I can leave out the Frankfurters if you want.
23:27No, no, I don't want to stand in the way of culinary invention, Trevor.
23:32No luck with the plumber, then?
23:33Nah.
23:40You look like you've been here all your life.
23:43Just making an effort.
23:45I know.
23:47You doing all right, Trevor?
23:49You know, you're better at this building game than you think.
23:53Yeah, we could really make it down here if we wanted, you know.
23:56Really?
23:57Yeah.
23:59We're hard-working, honest.
24:02Well, you're honest.
24:03That would be nice, I suppose.
24:07To, you know, be something.
24:10Well, not necessarily anything special.
24:15Just to be someone proper.
24:17You know?
24:19Trevor Purvis Builder.
24:23Trevor the Builder.
24:26You are a builder.
24:29Yeah, I am.
24:31And we should be thinking about other jobs.
24:34I suppose.
24:35We'll be back home before we know it.
24:37We could always find something else in London.
24:40Well?
24:42Don't you think we'll find anything back home?
24:45Ah, just a few opportunities, that's all.
24:48Nah, we'll find something.
24:50I can't leave Karen and Dan again.
24:53Anyway, like you said, we're good.
24:56Yeah.
25:01What?
25:03No cheese.
25:10Hi.
25:12Didn't know whether you were in or not.
25:14Really? Where else would I be?
25:16I ordered a pizza.
25:17Excellent.
25:18I'm starving.
25:21Oh.
25:22Changed my mind.
25:27Mmm, not bad.
25:30So, good day?
25:31Yep, great.
25:32How are the builders?
25:34Builders are absolutely fine.
25:36You're crossing me, aren't you?
25:38I mean, you're trying to hide it, but it's just peeping through there.
25:42I'm fine.
25:44No, you're not.
25:45Yes, I am. I'm fine.
25:56So, you're going to be working late every night for the next three months, are you?
25:59Of course I'm not.
26:00No, that's fine. You work as late as you want.
26:02I'll just sort everything out here, shall I?
26:04Put our furniture into storage, talk to the builders, sweep up the dust.
26:08Make sure Simon hasn't used up all the bloody toilet paper, hmm?
26:11Laura.
26:12Make sure our bed's clean enough to get into when you come home, if you can be bothered to come home, that is.
26:15But you said you wanted to sort it out.
26:17You offered.
26:19You said it'd be fun.
26:20Yeah, well, it isn't fun.
26:23It isn't even the tiniest bit fun.
26:27It's a bloody nightmare.
26:31Oh, Laura.
26:33Hmm? Laura?
26:36You're going to have to learn to cope like the rest of us.
26:38And the first thing you're going to do is get on with Jo and Trevor.
26:43Okay.
26:44I mean it, Paul.
26:45Yeah, so do I. Hand on heart.
26:47Hmm?
26:49Scout Simon.
26:50Hmm?
26:54Okay.
26:55Good.
26:56Hmm?
26:58And put that bloody pizza down. Come and make it up to me.
27:11Ah!
27:26Ah!
27:40Afternoon.
27:41Mrs. Atkins?
27:42Yes.
27:43I'm from the council.
27:44John Price.
27:45Planning and Building Regulations Department.
27:48I understand you're having some alterations done on your house.
27:52Come in.
27:54She's been very polite.
27:56Watch and learn.
27:58Then again, I'd be polite to a man who had complete control over me house.
28:02But yeah, well, yeah.
28:04So, we're not allowed to touch it at all?
28:06Not at the moment, no.
28:08This is a conservation area,
28:10so you'll need permission before you start any demolition work.
28:14A conservator might even be suitable for a preservation order.
28:17This? You're joking.
28:18No, I'm afraid not.
28:19And, um, I suppose you can't tell me exactly who informed you about this?
28:23No, that would be inflammatory.
28:26All that I can say is that the complaint came from a neighbour.
28:29Right, I see.
28:31Now, this will explain to you everything that's going to happen next.
28:34Don't worry, nobody's out to get you or anything like that.
28:37It's all simple procedure.
28:40Right, fine. Thank you.
28:42Well, I'll show you out.
28:45See, she was all right about that.
28:48That's because she gets to keep it.
28:54Right, I want it knocking down now!
28:58Put them down, you said.
29:00Trevor, I am not having some anorak come into my house
29:03telling me what I can and can't do.
29:05I don't know what you're talking about.
29:07I don't know what you're talking about.
29:09I don't know what you're talking about.
29:11I'm not having some anorak come into my house
29:13telling me what I can and can't do.
29:15I thought you liked it.
29:17Yeah, I did.
29:18You said it was beautiful.
29:20Oh, Trevor, don't get sentimental.
29:22At the end of the day, it's just a fancy window.
29:24Oh!
29:31It's a bloody health hazard.
29:35What I want to know is how that little jobsworth
29:37found out about this in the first place.
29:41I don't know.
30:05Laura, I want to apologise.
30:08What for?
30:09Well, it must have been Patricia who told the council
30:11about the conservatory.
30:14I'm afraid it was me who told her.
30:16She got a bit upset.
30:18Trevor, you're a liability.
30:20Why did you tell her we were knocking it down?
30:22Well, Paul said...
30:25See, I thought...
30:28Well, it just came out.
30:30It just came out?
30:31Laura.
30:33The problem with Trevor is he can be a bit simple sometimes,
30:36can't you?
30:37And sometimes his mouth gets ahead of his brain.
30:40He just got carried away.
30:42All right, Joe, I got the message.
30:45In future, I want any press releases to be issued by me or Paul, OK?
30:49Don't tell anyone anything.
30:52Absolutely.
30:53Promise.
30:56Ah, my three favourite people.
30:58How are the electricians getting on, Joe?
31:00They're grand, aren't they?
31:02Good.
31:03You all right, Trevor?
31:05Uh-huh.
31:06Marvellous. So all's well, then?
31:08Yeah, apart from some train spotter from the council
31:10telling us we can't touch the conservatory.
31:12That's all right. You only had it kept anyway, didn't you?
31:14Me?
31:15No, I want it again.
31:17Well, we can sort that out, can't we, lads?
31:20Yeah, why not?
31:21Great.
31:23Who fancies a beer?
31:27Why not?
31:28Oh, thanks.
31:29I'm going to have a lie down.
31:31Someone mentioned beer.
31:32Here.
31:34I'm back.
31:36Dear Karen.
31:43Can I come in?
31:44Yeah, yeah.
31:53I'm sorry about being ratty.
31:55She would have found out anyway. She's in the house more than Paul.
31:58My fault, Lara.
32:03Does Joe always speak to you like that?
32:05Like what?
32:07Like you've got learning difficulties.
32:09Ah...
32:11Joe's all right.
32:12I mean, he speaks...
32:14He's my brother, I mean...
32:16It's fine.
32:23Do you want to come inside for a drink?
32:26No, I...
32:28I'm just tired.
32:34Come on.
32:44Ninety bucks.
32:45Coming through.
32:51Just there.
32:53And not too hot.
33:00Go on, Paul!
33:02Go on, lad, give it some!
33:07Paul, hey! Paul, hey! Paul, hey!
33:10Lara! Lara! Lara! Lara!
33:14Lara! Lara! Lara! Lara! Lara!
33:19Paul!
33:21Fuck!
33:28There's only one Lord at hand!
33:30There's only one Lord at hand!
33:33There's only one Lord at hand!
33:48♪
34:15Morning.
34:16Morning.
34:17Well, things move fast around here, don't they?
34:21Meaning?
34:22I understand there's been a bit of a change in the conservatory since I inspected it.
34:25Oh yeah, it's gone.
34:27It fell down.
34:29It just fell down?
34:31It's lucky no one was hurt.
34:32All on its own.
34:33It just fell down.
34:35Oh, you should have seen it last night. The whole structure was unsafe.
34:37Liable to collapse at any moment.
34:39And who are you?
34:40Joseph Purvis, chief building contractor, Purvis & Purvis Construction Ltd.
34:44How do you do?
34:45Was it windy last night?
34:46Any sudden gales, any typhoons localised in the Blackheath area?
34:54That's it, is it?
35:03Not a lot left, is there?
35:06Well, there's not much I can do.
35:09Can't slap a preservation order on that.
35:12So I'll be off.
35:15Just one thing.
35:17No matter how nice you make your home,
35:19if you don't get on with your neighbours, life can be a bloody misery.
35:23It's worth making an effort.
35:39How old are you two?
35:49Well, I'm 24, and he's...
35:50Get out of here.
35:51Now.
35:52Yes, sir.
35:53Sorry, sir.
35:55Oi.
35:58Whoops.
35:58Just get out before you break something else.
36:04You're going to have an heart attack if you don't calm down.
36:15What about, dear Karen, my mate Gary thinks you're really fit?
36:18No, I put, dear Karen, my mate Gary thinks you're a right old slapper.
36:22Slapper?
36:22Slag.
36:26What are you doing?
36:28Fan this.
36:29Don't know whose it is, though.
36:30Is it yours?
36:31Give it me.
36:33Who's Karen, then?
36:33Is she your bird?
36:35Why are you writing to her?
36:36Are you telling her she's dumped?
36:37Just give me the letter, will you?
36:39Do you have to write to her?
36:40Because she can't understand what you're saying?
36:42Or is it because you're screwing her post-it up?
36:44I'll tell you what.
36:45You tell me what you want to say, and I'll translate it for you.
36:48You're going to give me back?
36:49Oi, touchy.
36:50What are you going to do, write me a nasty letter?
37:03Yes!
37:05Joseph.
37:06Joseph, me old mate.
37:07You want a drink?
37:08Thanks very much.
37:09I'll have a beer.
37:12You got the hospital contract?
37:13I certainly did.
37:14Give him a beer, please, mate.
37:15And I stayed well within me top limit.
37:17Well done.
37:18Congratulations, Craig.
37:19It's all mine.
37:20I love you.
37:21I love you.
37:22I love you.
37:23I love you.
37:24I love you.
37:25I love you.
37:26I love you.
37:27I love you.
37:28I love you.
37:29I love you.
37:30I love you.
37:31I love you.
37:32It's all mine, and I'm going to have some fun with it.
37:35You too, eh, Joe?
37:38What?
37:39You want me to come and work for you?
37:41I'd be very offended if you didn't.
37:43Fantastic.
37:44Thank you.
37:45Thank you very much.
37:46Where is he, then?
37:47Where's he having firms?
37:48Eh?
37:49Oh, Trevor, yes.
37:50Andy's at Polly's.
37:51We had a bit of trouble with the subcontractor, but it might be a long lay-out.
37:53Listen, we've all got to meet up soon and have a chat.
37:56Then we can sort out that contract.
37:58Yes!
38:03Joe?
38:14Joe?
38:18Thank God you're back, man.
38:19The electrician's left hours ago.
38:21Can you smell burning in here?
38:24No.
38:25Like electrical burning?
38:29It's just the new wires, Simon.
38:30It's soldering on.
38:32You smell burning?
38:34Is that supposed to be sticking out of there?
38:40That's just spare.
38:42Didn't I tell you?
38:43Anyone could sleep there with a bunch of cowboys.
38:45I thought you'd checked him out.
38:47Will you two shut up?
38:49If everything's working, it's not a problem.
38:51We just shove that back in.
38:56See? It's nothing.
38:58Simon, plug the radio in, will you?
39:02Oh, yeah, that's too straight, that. Now we're all going to die.
39:04Shut up, will you?
39:06Get that Terry on the phone now.
39:16Well?
39:18It's ringing.
39:22No reply.
39:24Are you sure they give you the room number?
39:26Yeah.
39:29No reply.
39:31Are you sure they give you the real number?
39:38Oh, dear.
39:40We can fix this.
39:44Right?
39:48We can fix this.
39:55No.
39:57Oh, God.
39:59This isn't a game, you know.
40:01I'm sorry, mate.
40:03Mate? I'm not your mate.
40:05I'm employing you. I'm paying your wages.
40:07Just because we've had a couple of beers together
40:09doesn't mean you can take the piss out of me.
40:11This is our home.
40:13I haven't got the time or the patience
40:15to mess around with cowboys.
40:17All I've got to do is look through yellow pages,
40:19get someone else.
40:21Paul, I'll sort it in the morning.
40:23Now!
40:26No.
40:36He's not going to sack us, is he?
40:38Nah.
40:40He talks when he should be listening.
40:42Yeah, but... Trevor, shut up.
40:44I've had enough.
40:46Right, me and you are going out tonight.
40:48London. Come on.
40:50What for?
40:56We can meet up with this bloke I've got to know.
40:58Craig.
41:00Dead canny.
41:02One of the plumbers you met?
41:04Nah, he's, um...
41:06He's what you might call a property developer.
41:08He could get us some other work.
41:10Do you have contacts in Newcastle?
41:12All over, yeah.
41:14Great.
41:22How do I look?
41:24God, if you wear that now,
41:26what are you going to wear when you are 50?
41:28Well, I've got nothing else.
41:32Here.
41:36Put these on.
41:38I can't wear them.
41:40You'll look great, man.
41:42I feel like a dickhead.
41:44Well, don't feel like a dickhead.
41:47Oh, come on.
41:49Let's get out there.
41:51And just go along with it.
41:53No one back home can see you.
41:55No one knows you're down here.
41:57You can do whatever you want.
41:59So forget about Karen and Daniel.
42:01They're fine.
42:03You're down here with me.
42:05So let's have a good time.
42:07Okay.
42:09I'll give it a go.
42:11So let's have a good time.
42:15Okay, I'll give it a go.
42:17Good lad.
42:21And if you start getting fidgety,
42:23just think, Lanzarote.
42:25We're on holiday.
42:29Lanzarote.
42:31I'm on holiday.
42:41I'm on holiday.
42:43I guess you need your father, baby.
42:47I guess you know.
42:51You don't need experience
42:55to turn me out.
42:59You just give it up.
43:01So if you pay them extra money,
43:03they'll dance for you.
43:05Yeah, you're not really meant to touch them like that.
43:07Some of them don't mind.
43:10Right, got the little brunette in the corner.
43:12She gets really arsey if you don't touch her up.
43:14Are you allowed to just talk to them?
43:16Or are you not paid for their brains?
43:18Haven't you got places like this in Newcastle?
43:20Not that I know of.
43:22Best thing about this place
43:24is a client can have a good laugh
43:26and he might even get to take something home with him.
43:28You know what I mean?
43:30Cluck.
43:32Hello, boys.
43:34My name's Roxy and I'll be serving you tonight.
43:36Oh, hi, Craig. Didn't see you there.
43:38So how are these two, then?
43:40Oh, raising me mates down from Newcastle.
43:42We might be doing a bit of work.
43:44Oh, I love that accent.
43:46Got to listen to that all day.
43:48That could be arranged.
43:50Go on, say that thing you say.
43:52What is it?
43:54Oi, you do it, Trevor.
43:56Yeah, go on, Trev.
43:58Go on, just for me.
44:02Oh, that was lovely.
44:04Tell you what, you're in there, son.
44:07So you all on the property game, then?
44:09Yeah, yeah. Same again, Roxy.
44:11Sure.
44:13Lanzarote!
44:15I'm on holiday.
44:17Hey, hey, hey.
44:37Oh.
44:44Aren't you glad we came out?
44:46You've seen what we've been missing.
44:50It's an experience.
44:52And this is just one night.
44:56Imagine the nights we'd have if we stayed here longer.
44:58I think we'd need to be independently wealthy.
45:00Craig's a laugh, isn't he?
45:02Oh, he's very entertaining.
45:04Is he serious about getting us work?
45:06Okay.
45:10Isn't this fantastic?
45:16Roxy's playing out in Ghet?
45:18Yeah, that'll be the day, won't it?
45:20So you're missing Newcastle, then, Trevor?
45:22I must be family, mostly.
45:24Taron and Daniel, my son.
45:26Nine months.
45:28I mean, they've changed so much at that age.
45:30Yeah, there must be a dread being stuck in that house, haven't there?
45:32What?
45:35I mean, you've done some good work up north, haven't you?
45:38Well, a job's a job.
45:40You always do your best.
45:42That's what I like to hear.
45:44Oi, he's all right up there, isn't he?
45:46Yeah.
45:48I can always rely on her, Trevor.
45:50Here, listen, wait till you see the other project, all right?
45:52Fifty, sixty flats at least.
45:54I'll take you round to myself. It's not far from you.
45:58In Newcastle?
46:00No, Blackheath.
46:02Look, we're starting in five weeks' time, right?
46:04You want to stop playing happy families with that house,
46:06you should be doing what you know best now.
46:10What do you reckon, eh, Trevor?
46:12What do you say to Purvis and Purvis coming in with me?
46:16Purvis and Purvis
46:18have been in business for...
46:20six weeks now.
46:22I think it'd be financial suicide
46:24to leave our first and only job.
46:26And I think when Joe's spaceship
46:28lands back on planet Earth,
46:30we'll all be happy.
46:33When your spaceship lands back on planet Earth,
46:35they'll tell you the same.
46:37Go on, you Jewel.
46:41Trevor!
46:43Chris!
46:51You've been talking yourself up a bit, haven't you?
46:53Look, Greg...
46:57What's this, your first job?
47:00Or is it your only job?
47:03That brother of yours...
47:07couldn't build himself a Wendy house.
47:09He's a bit inexperienced, yeah. Listen.
47:11No, you listen!
47:14I don't mind a chance,
47:16but I'd like him to have a little bit up top, yeah?
47:18And you, Joe?
47:20You haven't.
47:23You're nothing.
47:25And she would never have got you and your brother
47:27into this mess.
47:29I got carried away. I didn't mean to take the piss.
47:31We want to learn.
47:33We work hard.
47:35I'll start small.
47:37Whatever you say, Craig.
47:39Get out my face!
47:41Now.
48:01You bastard!
48:05You...
48:07stupid bastard!
48:11Do you know what you've just done, Trevor?
48:13It's not me who's the stupid one this time.
48:15So when do we get a chance like that, eh?
48:19I have never been offered the big time, Trevor.
48:21Never.
48:23It doesn't happen every day of the week.
48:25And thanks to you,
48:27it'll probably never happen again.
48:30Now, he liked me!
48:34He thought I was something.
48:38And you had to go and piss all over it!
48:40Look, listen to yourself.
48:43You do up people's kitchens.
48:45I'm a sometime painter and decorator.
48:47We're not Barrett Holmes!
48:50Well, at least I would have had the chance to try.
48:52I'm not Barrett Holmes!
48:54I'm not Barrett Holmes!
48:56I'm not Barrett Holmes!
48:58At least I would have had the chance to try, Trevor.
49:00He'd have found you out sooner or later
49:02and then he would have chucked you out.
49:04And what about him telling us
49:06to jack him, Paul and Laura?
49:08You know, they can find anybody to do what we're doing for them.
49:12We've no loyalty to them.
49:14It's our first job.
49:16They trust us. We made a deal.
49:18And what about me, eh?
49:20We set up as partners
49:22to find work around Newcastle.
49:24We took this job on because it was a dead cert.
49:27And we'd go back as soon as it was finished.
49:29And all this time
49:31you'd no intention of going back, had you?
49:35No.
49:39And you?
49:41You should have stuck at playing a househusband
49:43instead of ruining my life.
49:47Listen.
49:49I know I'm not the world's best painter.
49:51I know I'm crap.
49:53But at least I can admit that to myself
49:55and live with it.
49:57You...
49:59I didn't have to give you a job, Trevor.
50:01You know,
50:03I didn't have to carry you.
50:09Well, you shouldn't have.
50:11I don't need you.
50:17Go and find someone else to crap on.
50:25Come on.
50:28Come on.
50:54Trevor, to save it,
50:56especially the shape you're in.
51:02Trevor.
51:04No. Look at you.
51:06You're no use to anyone.
51:08Go to bed.
51:10But I'll piss off, will you?
51:13What are you doing?
51:15Joe!
51:17Grandad's had a stroke.
51:23A bad one.
51:25Dad says we should come up straight away.
51:27Otherwise it might be too late.
51:31I'm sorry.
51:33I'm sorry.
51:35I'm sorry.
51:37I'm sorry.
51:39I'm sorry.
51:41Trevor,
51:43about Craig.
51:45Not now, eh?
51:47Right.
51:51Who's going to tell Paul?
51:55We'll both tell.
52:11I love you.
52:13I love you.
52:15I love you.
52:17I love you.
52:19I love you.
52:21I love you.
52:23I love you.
52:25I love you.
52:27I love you.
52:29I love you.
52:31I love you.
52:33I love you.
52:35I love you.
52:37I love you.
52:40I love you.
52:42I love you.
