00:00I remember the first time I set foot in here. Made an idiot of myself trying to chat someone
00:08up. Well, here's a surprise. Nigel. Come on down here. Guys, this is Nigel, an old friend
00:21of ours from a very long time ago. So what happens to you on Christmas Day then? It's
00:25just Christmas. Gets to the best of us sometimes, don't it? As long as you're alright. I'll
00:33get the drinks in. I'm Teddy, Phil's second cousin. And this is my oldest boy, Harry.
00:40Santa! You're a week late! You'll have to excuse my son, Nigel. He ain't got any manners.
00:45And that tie. Well, you look a bit like a... It's brave. It's very brave. I haven't had
00:51it a long time. Well, no, I get the shabby, chic look, mate. But, you know, you want to
00:56be careful that the Rosses don't call you in for questioning about this attack on Cindy.
01:01Harry, just ignore him. This wasn't a good idea. Nice to meet you. Nigel. Who said to
01:14him? You shouldn't have said that. I was joking. He said, uh, Harry was out of order.
01:24I can hardly blame him for the state of me. There's nothing that can't be fixed, is there?
01:31I shouldn't have stormed out. Warders, when I got married to Judy, hung on to it all these
01:43years, through it all. What's it about? You ain't with her anymore, and it's just a tie,
01:50isn't it? A number of nights I spent on benches just like this, wishing I could get my whole
01:56life back, but I don't even know how to start. Well, you can start by getting used to some
02:02new gear. A trip to the barbers, wouldn't that? Have a wet shave, that's all you had.
02:09It was 1918 before. Remember when we was kids? I was desperate to get a moustache.
02:18Yeah, you and Grant beat me to it, of course, but when I finally managed it, your old mum,
02:25good rest of her, she took one look and she said,
02:30has your eyebrow come down for a visit?
02:33I sometimes wish we could just go back.
02:42It's not the barbers I'm frightened of. I could get a raise myself and take it off.
02:48No, the truth is, I'm scared I'll get rid of it and look at myself in the mirror,
02:57and I have to face myself, and I don't know who I am anymore.
03:06Well, I do. You're the same old Madge you always were.
03:12Come, come with me. Phil, I'm not going to the barbers.
03:15No, come on, come. Really.
03:16Just come with me.
03:17Same old ugly mug?
03:22It's me.
03:24Yeah? And it's a bad, is it?
03:31Thank you. Really, thank you.
03:34No, it's a sobbing, but it's good to have you back. Come here.
03:50Cheers.
