00:00The
00:28Happy Birthday to you
00:36Thanks, Mrs C. I don't know what to say.
00:39Aren't you going to open your present?
00:41Oh, right.
00:42I didn't know what to get you, you know, cos I'm a bit out of practice buying for men.
00:46You know, I hope you like it.
00:49Don't tell me. It's a Lamborghini.
00:51No, I don't think it is.
00:53Eh?
00:54I know you young people like them designer labels, but I'm afraid they're all double-dutch to me.
00:59No, no, Mrs C. It's a car.
01:00Eh?
01:01It doesn't matter.
01:03No.
01:05Ah, a tie.
01:07You don't like it, do you?
01:09Like it?
01:10I love it.
01:11I can always take it back, you know, change it for something else.
01:13No, no, no, it's perfect.
01:14Look, I'll put it on now.
01:15They're not too loud.
01:16Only I know you like bright colours.
01:18No, no, I love them, Mrs C.
01:20Yeah.
01:21You know, there was a sort of greeny one.
01:24But I thought it looked a bit on the sickly side.
01:27No, this is, er, this is just right, Mrs C. Thanks very much.
01:31There.
01:32What do you think?
01:33Ah.
01:34Oh, that's very nice.
01:36Thanks, Mrs C.
01:39You off to work?
01:44Er, no, no, I thought I'd, er, take a look around the market, you know, see who's about.
01:49Oh, won't they mind?
01:50No, I mean, if you can't take a day off on your own birthday, when can you, eh?
01:53No, I suppose not.
01:55Yeah.
01:56I thought I'd do you a special tea today, you know, for your birthday, and then I thought
02:00we'd nip across the big, have a drink.
02:02Great.
02:03Yeah, yeah, right.
02:04Well, er, I'll see you later then, Mrs C. Thanks very much.
02:07Yeah.
02:08Good morning, Mr T.
02:23Well, she did really good, you know, I left on her own for most of the day yesterday,
02:33when I went to the cash and carry, but she did brilliant.
02:36How long's she been there now?
02:37I don't know, about six or seven weeks, I suppose.
02:39Morning, ladies.
02:40Well, the best thing about it is that I'm not stuck in there all day, you know, I get
02:43out when I want.
02:44Hey, you don't know why I'm out, do you?
02:45I could do with another pair of hands.
02:46Well, you get your mitts off you, she's my one.
02:47Lovely.
02:48Lovely weather.
02:49I'm only joking, girl.
02:50Listen, I'm pleased to wait.
02:51I'd better get back in here.
02:52Er, are you coming in later?
02:53Er, I'll probably nip in lunchtime or so.
02:54All right, night?
02:55Yeah.
02:56Last time, eh?
02:57Look, I said it'd be five minutes.
02:58They're supposed to be set up and van's off by now.
03:00He's a casual.
03:01He's only just got his pitch.
03:02No, I'm not interested.
03:03I want it moved.
03:04When he's finished.
03:05Now!
03:06No chance.
03:07Here, look, mate.
03:08Keep those favourite shippers.
03:09Oh.
03:14All right, this is how it is.
03:15I've told you.
03:16He's not moving till he's unloaded.
03:18Now, either you get lost and let him get on with it.
03:19Or what?
03:20Or I'll make you look a right prat in front of this lot by knocking you from here till next
03:23week.
03:24Yeah.
03:25Well, come to think of it, you're probably more used to rolling around in the gutter than
03:29me.
03:30Maybe one day somebody'll put you back there.
03:31I'll take a better man than you.
03:32Yeah, we'll see.
03:33I'll look forward to it.
03:37All right, you'll all right, back to work.
03:39And you get this van out.
03:42Morning.
03:49You want to have a cup of tea?
03:50Yeah, cheers.
03:51Er, two teas, please, lad.
03:52Bill.
03:53Er, make them three, please.
03:54And a bacon roll.
03:55I'll get them.
03:56I'm just putting on a fresh pot.
03:57I'll give you a shout.
03:58All right.
04:01Tea's coming up.
04:03Nice to try, Nige.
04:05It was a present.
04:06Must have upset someone, mate.
04:08Anonymous, was it?
04:09No, it's from Dot.
04:10Birthday present.
04:11Oh, yeah.
04:12Got it this morning.
04:13All right.
04:14Today.
04:15Oh, yeah.
04:16Birthday present.
04:17Right.
04:18Yeah, Nige, it ain't your birthday, is it?
04:21Yeah, how'd you guess?
04:2221 again.
04:23Happy birthday, mate.
04:24Cheers.
04:25So, where's the party?
04:26What party?
04:27Birthday party.
04:28Ah, no.
04:29We're not having one.
04:30Me and Dot are just going over the Vic later.
04:32Liking the fast lane, eh?
04:34I thought about having a party.
04:35But, I mean, you're not the first ones to ask.
04:37The phone's been red out all morning.
04:38But, er, I can't see Dot going for it somewhere.
04:41She'd want everyone in bed by 11.
04:43You know what I mean.
04:45You'll kind of get her out of the house.
04:46How?
04:47Well, we could always get the lads to kidnap her and bring her back tomorrow morning.
04:51Try to turn the pictures or something.
04:52Nah, she'll be back by 11.
04:54Nah, it's okay.
04:55Wait till next year, eh?
04:56Next year?
04:57I'll have my own place then, won't I?
04:58Oh, right.
04:59Part me every night, then.
05:00Three tees of the break and roll!
05:01You!
05:02Lovely.
05:03Coffee black.
05:04Cheers.
05:05Oh, morning, Mum.
05:06How are you?
05:07Oh, don't you start.
05:08I've had enough today already.
05:09You talk to me like that, you'll get nothing.
05:10I saw you had a bit of trouble.
05:11Eh?
05:12Him and Tricky Dicky had a little altercation.
05:13Sorry.
05:14Ian.
05:15I'm sorry, he gets right out of my nose.
05:16Well, just ignore him.
05:17He's not worth it.
05:18I've tried that.
05:19It don't work.
05:20There's not much else you can do, is there?
05:21Well, I'm sure I'll think I'll do it.
05:22I'll do it.
05:23I'll do it.
05:24I'll do it.
05:25I'll do it.
05:26I'll do it.
05:27Thanks for this, Dad.
05:28It's a pleasure, love.
05:29Ta-ra.
05:30See ya.
05:31Bye.
05:32Hey, big girl.
05:33Hi, Dot.
05:34Is your mother in?
05:35Yeah.
05:36Oh, good, cos I want to ask him to change shifts with me, cos I want to do a special tea
05:37this afternoon for Nigel.
05:38For Nigel?
05:39It's his birthday.
05:40Oh, I didn't know.
05:41Does he have any party, then?
05:42I don't think so.
05:43Well, you should know, Dot.
05:44I mean, it's your house.
05:45Oh, Phil!
05:46Phil, have you seen Nigel?
05:47I don't know.
05:48I don't know.
05:49I don't know.
05:50I don't know.
05:51I don't think so.
05:52Well, you should know, Dot.
05:53I mean, it's your house.
05:57Yeah, he's in there.
05:58Do you know if he's having a party for his birthday?
06:00No, I don't think so.
06:01I don't think he wanted to impose that.
06:03Well, he didn't say nothing.
06:04Well, maybe he didn't like to.
06:05Well, it's his home.
06:06I mean, he's entitled to have a party if he wants to.
06:08Where do you say what?
06:09He's in the cafe.
06:10Right.
06:11Oh, you're all invited, since it was your idea.
06:14What was our idea?
06:15A party.
06:16Uh, Dot's.
06:20Oh, you are here, then, Nigel?
06:22Oh, hello, Mr C.
06:23Look, I've just been talking to Michelle and the Mitchell brothers.
06:25Oh, yeah.
06:26And they seem to think that you ought to have a party, you know, for your birthday.
06:29Oh, no, no.
06:30Now, why you couldn't talk to me about it, I'll never know.
06:32After all, it is your own.
06:33I know, Mr C.
06:34Anyway, I want you to leave it all to me.
06:35I'm going to see Pauline, see if I can swap ships so as I can do the food this afternoon.
06:40I might even do a trifle.
06:42I think it's a bit short notice for a proper cake, but I'll see what they've got at the shop.
06:45No, I really aren't.
06:46Oh, I'll do some of me sausage rolls.
06:49Oh, they always go down well.
06:51I'll bet I'll pop now, catch Pauline, before it's too late.
06:54Now, you invite who you like, but not before seven.
06:57Oh, and you'd better tell them to bring a bottle, cos I only got a drop of sweet sherry
07:00and an inch and half of port.
07:01I don't know if they'd tell you that.
07:02I mean, they're allowing them for their pictures, don't they?
07:04Kat!
07:05Did you hear that, Kath?
07:06What's that then, Dot?
07:07Party tonight at my house.
07:09Nigel's birthday.
07:10Your birthday night?
07:11Yeah, you're both invited.
07:12Seven o'clock.
07:13Bring a bottle.
07:14I can't stop.
07:15I've got too much on me plane.
07:16Right, is there anything else you want me to do?
07:21Er, no, it's okay.
07:22Clyde will be here in a minute.
07:23Right, I'd better nip around and give Phil a hand.
07:25He's got an engine to take out.
07:26Okay.
07:27I'll only be an hour or so, so you can have a break when I get back.
07:30Ta.
07:31Oh, you know we got that do tonight, didn't you?
07:33What do?
07:34Tracy's end night.
07:35Tracy?
07:36Yeah, the flat was stalled.
07:37There's about a dozen of them, I think.
07:39Right, I'll give you a hand.
07:40Damn it.
07:41What?
07:42Nigel's birthday party.
07:43When?
07:44Tonight.
07:45Well, it's okay.
07:46You go.
07:47I can manage it.
07:48Well, you'll want to go as well, won't you?
07:49No, it's all right.
07:50I can go on later.
07:51Yeah, well, don't leave it too late.
07:53Why not?
07:54It's a dot, so it'll probably all be over by 10.30.
07:56Talk to the devil.
07:58I need a drink.
07:59Happy birthday, Nigel.
08:00Oh, cheers.
08:01But I'm beginning to wish I'd never been born.
08:03Eh?
08:04Dot's laying on a party for me.
08:06Yeah, so I hear.
08:07Yeah, well, as far as I can make up, the last party she organised was her son Nick's 10th
08:12birthday.
08:13And look what happened to him.
08:14Oh, it'll be all right.
08:15Yeah?
08:16Yeah?
08:17She's only out on the market buying up all her balloons and party hats.
08:20So?
08:21And prizes.
08:22Prizes?
08:23Games.
08:24Ah.
08:25Then she's going to the lawn direct to phone Ethel.
08:27Oh.
08:28Maybe all your mates will be going, won't they?
08:29Not if I can help it.
08:30I'll just see it now.
08:31Turning up, expecting sex, drugs and rock and roll and ending up playing pin a tail
08:35on a donkey.
08:36Come on, mate.
08:37It won't be that bad.
08:38All right?
08:39It will be that bad.
08:40Oh, you don't know that.
08:41Dot loves a good knees up.
08:42Oh, well.
08:43I suppose at least you two will be there.
08:46That's right.
08:47Well, I might be a bit late, Nige.
08:49Yeah?
08:50Yeah, I've got a hen party coming in tonight.
08:51Hen party?
08:52Yeah, Tracy from the market's getting married.
08:54Oh.
08:55What's the matter?
08:57The one night Vic is going to be full of women, I'll be across the road playing musical
09:03chairs with Ethel.
09:04Right, I'd better make a move.
09:07Here.
09:08Give him whatever he wants.
09:10Happy birthday, mate.
09:11I'll only be an hour or so.
09:12OK, bye.
09:13Right then, birthday boy, what you having?
09:16Start the first optic, I'll work your way along and don't let me go until I'm unconscious.
09:22How you doing?
09:24I'm all right.
09:25You come to treat the missus, have you?
09:27Yeah, maybe.
09:28You're a good mate of Richard's, aren't you?
09:31Yeah, so they say.
09:33You known him long?
09:34A few years.
09:36Bet he was quite a lad in his day, wasn't he?
09:38You reckon, do you?
09:39Well, wasn't he?
09:40Hey, you've never met my mother, have you?
09:43Sorry?
09:44Lovely woman.
09:45I mean, don't get me wrong, she had her faults like anyone else.
09:48But raising idiots wasn't one of them.
09:50Oh, sorry.
09:51I don't know what you're talking about.
09:52I'm the fourth person I know of that you've come to pumping for information about Richard.
09:56News travels around a market faster than anywhere on earth.
09:59Now, whatever it is you want, I ain't got it, mate.
10:02So you're frightened of losing your pitch as well, are you?
10:04No.
10:05I'm frightened of what Richard will do to you when he finds out what you've been up to.
10:08Oh, look at me.
10:09I'm terrified.
10:10Well, you should be.
10:11Now, if you don't mind, I'd rather you went and paid somewhere else, cos I've got a business to run, alright?
10:15Sweet.
10:16That's what I am.
10:19Eh?
10:20That's what they call me.
10:21Who does?
10:22Women.
10:23I mean, you've never called Grant sweet, have you?
10:26Oh, I don't think so.
10:28Well, there you are.
10:29That's cos he's not.
10:30I mean, nor is Phil.
10:31In fact, none of the blokes I know are sweet, so why me?
10:34I bet you would like to be called some of the things I've called Grant in the past.
10:37No, well, you see, that's the point, you see, I would.
10:39That's my dream, to be called an inconsiderate, uncouth, good-for-nothing, cos they're the ones that get all the birds.
10:47I just get called sweet.
10:49Well, you are sweet.
10:50So you're at it now.
10:52Sorry.
10:53That's alright.
10:54It's my fault for being sweet.
10:55Look, Nigel, I bet.
10:56See, the thing is that women have two different feelings, you know.
11:00Yeah, I suppose so.
11:01They've got, erm, they have sex, sexual feelings.
11:03Yeah.
11:04And then they've got that other thing.
11:06Other thing?
11:07Maternal instinct.
11:08Oh.
11:09That's what I get.
11:11Yeah, but that's because you're sweet.
11:12Sweet, yeah, I know.
11:13Look, Nigel, you're a smashing bloke, and any woman would be lucky to have you.
11:16But do you really want to sit here on your birthday and get plastered?
11:19Yeah.
11:20Well, I'm not gonna let you.
11:21It's your birthday, you're supposed to be happy.
11:23I am happy.
11:24Well, you don't sound it.
11:25I am happy, as happy as is humanly possible, without Kim Bassett.
11:29Well, I'm not gonna stand here watching you ruin your day.
11:32You're barred until tonight.
11:33Eh?
11:34It's for your own good, and Dot's too.
11:35She's come through a lot of trouble for you, you can't let her down.
11:37You can't bar me, it's my birthday.
11:38All right, then.
11:39You can save as long as you like, but soft drinks only.
11:42That's cruelty.
11:43Well, you know what they say.
11:44You've got to be cruel to be kind.
11:47Potts?
11:48Are you all right?
11:49Why shouldn't I be all right?
11:50Well, no reason.
11:51Look, why don't you come over to the Vic?
11:52I'll buy you a pint.
11:53Gidea said she'll call in later.
11:54She's just doing some letters.
11:56Maybe.
11:57I've got a call to make first.
11:58Here's a pint there with you, Sharon.
11:59Hi.
12:00Whatever this reprobate's having.
12:01Oh, cheers, Rich.
12:02Thought I might find you in here.
12:03Listen, what's the point of having a boozer right opposite your pitch if you're not going
12:04to use the facilities?
12:05Yeah, no point at all.
12:06Oh, well, look who's in.
12:07Oh, you're not still sniffing around that one, are you, mate?
12:08Maybe.
12:09Maybe.
12:10Is it because you're fancier or is it because of who our old man is?
12:11It's a bit of both.
12:12Oh, well, look who's in.
12:13Oh, you're not still sniffing around that one, are you, mate?
12:14Maybe.
12:15Is it because you're fancier or is it because of who our old man is?
12:16It's a bit of both.
12:17You know he's around the gaff this morning, don't you?
12:18What from?
12:19Yeah, he was looking for ammunition.
12:20I hope you haven't got any skeletons laying about, mate.
12:21Who, me?
12:22No, clean as a whistle.
12:23Yeah, of course you are.
12:24Yeah.
12:25Clean as a whistle.
12:26Yeah, of course you are.
12:27Oh, I'm sorry.
12:28I'm sorry.
12:29I'm sorry.
12:30I'm sorry.
12:31I'm sorry.
12:32I'm sorry.
12:33I'm sorry.
12:34I'm sorry.
12:35I'm sorry.
12:36I'm sorry.
12:37I'm sorry.
12:38I'm sorry.
12:39I'm sorry.
12:40I'm sorry.
12:41I'm sorry.
12:42I'm sorry.
12:43You'd better watch him, you know.
12:47What for?
12:48Well, it's obvious he's got it in for you.
12:50What's he going to do?
12:51Eat me with a plate of smoked salmon?
12:52No, I mean it.
12:53He must have a head on his shoulders to get where he at.
12:55Yeah, he's just a bit of a kid.
12:56Yeah, you know best.
12:58Cheers.
12:59Yeah, yeah.
13:00I do.
13:01Afternoon.
13:02Do you mind?
13:03We were talking.
13:04Oh, sorry.
13:05I thought I'd just report in.
13:06Sorry?
13:07Yeah, only I'd heard you've been taking an interest in my affairs.
13:08I thought I might be able to help you.
13:09Oh, I doubt it.
13:10Yeah, well, you will let me know, won't you?
13:11I mean, I'd hate you to miss anything.
13:12Ian.
13:13Yeah, it's all right, it's all right.
13:14I'm going.
13:15Have fun.
13:16What is going on with you two?
13:20It's time somebody taught him a lesson.
13:21Look, I know you don't like him, Ian, but you shouldn't get involved.
13:24I already am.
13:25What was he talking about, anyway?
13:27You taking interest in his affairs?
13:28Oh, just having a little dig.
13:30Looking for dirt, you mean?
13:31If you like.
13:32How do you know there isn't he?
13:33Oh, come on.
13:34There's gotta be.
13:35I mean, it's not round here.
13:36I've got friends on the council.
13:37You hate him that much?
13:38Well, like I said, it's time somebody taught him a lesson.
13:40Well, maybe it is, but why does it have to be you?
13:41Who better?
13:42Hiya.
13:43Not here, can I?
13:44Of course not.
13:45Do you want a drink?
13:46Mmm, fruit juice, please, orange.
13:47Do you, er, finish your letters?
13:48Most of them.
13:49I thought I'd finish the rest tonight, you know.
13:50Oh.
13:51What?
13:52Nothing.
13:53It's just that there's a party on the square tonight, you know, and it's my night off.
13:54I just thought if you wasn't doing anything...
13:55Yes.
13:56...oh, that you might like to come.
13:57I'd love to.
13:58Great.
13:59Oh.
14:00There you are.
14:01I've been looking for you.
14:02Oh.
14:03There you are.
14:04What for?
14:05Well, help me with this lot, of course.
14:06Oh, I nearly did myself a mischief.
14:07I'm sorry, Mrs C.
14:08Oh, well, it's all right, you know.
14:09You can give me a hand.
14:10Now, I've got everything I can.
14:11That's seen off your rent money for the week, but I wanted everything I could.
14:12I wanted to go to the house tonight, you know, and it's my night off.
14:13I just thought if you wasn't doing anything...
14:14Yes.
14:15...oh, that you might like to come.
14:16I'd love to.
14:17Great.
14:18Oh.
14:19There you are.
14:20I've been looking all over for you.
14:21What for?
14:22Well, help me with this lot, of course.
14:23Oh, I nearly did myself a mischief.
14:24Oh, I'm sorry, Mrs C.
14:25Right here now.
14:26You can give me a hand.
14:28Now, I've got everything I can.
14:31That's seen off your rent money for the week, but I wanted everything to be nice.
14:35You really shouldn't have bothered now, Mrs C.
14:37No, I quite enjoyed it.
14:38Now, what have we got here?
14:39Cheese?
14:40Ah, pineapple chunks.
14:42I thought we'd do them little sticks, you know.
14:45Napkins.
14:46Napkins?
14:47Paper, yeah.
14:48Got happy birthday on them.
14:49Oh, great.
14:50Yes.
14:51Now, I've got tuna fish and ham.
14:53That's for the sandwiches and cheese if we've got any left over from the sticks.
14:57Oh, and I thought I'd put out me lace tablecloth.
15:01Lace cloth?
15:02Yeah.
15:03You should be honoured.
15:04I ain't had an airing since Charlie's funeral.
15:06Oh, and Ethel says she's sorry, but she can't come.
15:09Ah, that's a bit of a blow.
15:10Yes, but it can't be helped, because she's got her legs again.
15:23Hi.
15:24Hello.
15:25How's Littlen?
15:26Fine.
15:27Oh, good, good.
15:28Won't be long.
15:29She'll be out on the stall with her dad.
15:30Oh, no, not for a little while yet.
15:31You know what?
15:32I've always liked the market.
15:33I always fancy getting a little catering unit or a sandwich bar or something.
15:34Mm, good idea.
15:35Yeah, I thought I might speak to Richard about it.
15:36Um, he is the one to speak to, isn't he?
15:37That's right.
15:38You must get on with him.
15:39Oh?
15:40Well, you and Sanjay got your pitch easy enough, didn't you?
15:41He and Sanjay are old friends.
15:42Well, it's like that, is it?
15:43Is it expensive?
15:44That depends.
15:45On what?
15:46Is there a reason for this sudden interest?
15:47No, no, just like I said, it was something I was thinking about.
15:49It's all right.
15:50It's all right.
15:51It's all right.
15:52It's all right.
15:53It's all right.
15:54It's all right.
15:55It's all right.
15:56It's all right.
15:57It's all right.
15:58Well, I've got to go for a little while yet.
15:59You know what?
16:00I've always liked the market.
16:01I've always liked the market.
16:02I always fancy getting a little catering unit or a sandwich bar or something.
16:03Is there a reason for this sudden interest?
16:05No, no.
16:06Just like I said, it was something I was thinking about, that's all.
16:08Perhaps it's Richard you should be talking to.
16:10Yeah, but I just want to find out as much as possible beforehand.
16:13About what?
16:14Everything.
16:15But Richard in particular.
16:16Oh, no, no, I'm just...
16:17I've heard about your argument this morning.
16:19Well, you can't blame me for trying, can you?
16:26Nigel!
16:27Yes?
16:28Hurry up!
16:29We'll have guests arriving soon.
16:30You still haven't blown the balloons up.
16:32All right?
16:33Oh, Dorothy.
16:34Oh, excuse.
16:35I think I'm at a bad time.
16:36Well, no, but I've got to get on, because I've got people coming in a minute, and I still
16:40ain't filled me bolivon cases.
16:42Do you think sardines will do?
16:44I mean, it says prawns on the packet, but where am I going to get prawns from this time
16:48of night?
16:49Look, maybe I should come back later.
16:51Well, is it important?
16:52Because I ought to get on.
16:53Well, there are these balloons.
16:54Hello, Mr T.
16:55What?
16:56Where are these balloons?
16:57On the sofa there.
16:58How many do you want blown up?
16:59Well, I'll blow them all up, I think.
17:00And use string.
17:01There's plenty in the drawer.
17:02Don't you use that sticky tape, because that leaves marks.
17:05See anything you fancy?
17:07Eh?
17:08Nay, a free agent, I mean.
17:09Meaning?
17:10Nothing.
17:11Look, Sharon.
17:12Look, it's right for you.
17:13You don't have to say anything.
17:14Listen, we've got to stop doing this.
17:15Doing what?
17:16Having a dig at each other every five minutes.
17:17Let's just leave it alone, mate.
17:18Fine by me.
17:19Got a funny feeling we're going to the wrong party.
17:20Yeah, you might be right, mate.
17:21That would be all right.
17:22We've got enough boozy to drown an elephant.
17:23And as for women, point one out and I'll fetch her for you.
17:24Woof, woof.
17:25You off then?
17:26Yeah.
17:27Well, tell Dot I'll be over later as soon as I've finished here.
17:28Oh.
17:29Right.
17:30You all right, lads, you off, are you?
17:31Yeah, we're going to the party at Dot's place.
17:32Dot's?
17:33Yeah.
17:34Yeah, Nigel's birthday.
17:35Oh, right.
17:36I might end up over later.
17:37Yeah, do that.
17:38Bring a bottle, eh?
17:39Yeah, nice one.
17:40You sure it was seven o'clock?
17:41Yeah, that's what she said.
17:42Well, I can't hear anything.
17:43I'm going to the party.
17:44You're going to the party at Dot's place.
17:45Dot's?
17:46Yeah, Nigel's birthday.
17:47Oh, right, I'll mind them over later, huh?
17:48Yeah, do that.
17:49Bring a bottle, eh?
17:50Yeah, nice one.
17:51Right there.
17:52You sure it was seven o'clock?
17:53Yeah, that's what she said.
17:54Well, I can't hear anything.
17:55Yeah, it was early yet, innit?
17:56Well, it should still be music or something, shouldn't it?
17:57Well, maybe it ain't started yet.
17:58It's still a bit too quiet, even for a party that hasn't started yet.
17:59Yeah, well, we'll have to liven it up, then, won't we, eh?
18:01Up we go.
18:02Come on.
18:03Keep it, Dot.
18:04Come on, Tim.
18:05Come on, Tim.
18:06Come on, Tim.
18:07Come on, Tim.
18:08Move on.
18:09You might even get the breakfast.
18:10Come on.
18:11Come on.
18:12Come on.
18:13Come on, Tim.
18:14Come on.
18:15Come on, Tim.
18:16Come on, Tim.
18:17Come on, Tim.
18:18Come on, Tim.
18:19Move on.
18:20You might even get the breakfast.
18:21Come on.
18:22Come on.
18:23Come on.
18:24You barge and have to wait for the next game.
18:27Right.
18:28I, er, I think a bit of drastic action's needed here, mate.
18:33What do you suggest?
18:34Er, Aunty Viya's Christmas party, 82?
18:37Looks like it.
18:38Step this way.
18:40Come on.
18:41Yeah!
18:42You did what?
18:43Found his boss at the council.
18:44Told him he was taking back Anders.
18:46Do you think you'll get into trouble?
18:47What, a council official caught taking bribes?
18:48Ooh!
18:49Sacking offence has got to be.
18:50Oh, Ian, I hope you know what you're doing.
18:51Look, just trust me, all right?
18:52Now, with a bit of luck, this is the last we see of Richard Cole.
18:53Good riddance.
18:54Now, come on.
18:55Do you want to go up this party?
18:56Yeah.
18:57Hey, do you think that's enough?
18:58Better safe than sorry.
18:59All right.
19:00Lads, you've got to help me.
19:01She'll have us playing punishment's knocking a minute.
19:02All in there, Nigel.
19:03Here.
19:04You got any more fruit?
19:05Yeah, here.
19:06Here.
19:07Hey, do you think that's enough?
19:08Better safe than sorry.
19:09All right.
19:10What is that?
19:11Never mind what it is, let's just hope nobody drips any on the carpet.
19:17A book.
19:18A film.
19:19Four words.
19:20First word.

19:53Come and get it.
19:54Oh, that's just a bit of punch Doc.
19:55Punch?
19:56What sort of punch?
19:57Well, it's fruit mostly as you can see it's got oranges and lemons and it's called er..
19:58Oranges and lemons?
19:59Yeah.
20:00That's it.
20:01Oranges and lemons.
20:02Yeah, that's right.
20:03They wrote a song about that didn't they.
20:04That's right.
20:05I've never heard of it.
20:06Oh yeah you must've.
20:07Oranges and lemons
20:09What do you think?
20:10Right.
20:11Ooh.
20:12Oh, that's nice.
20:13Yeah, have another one, though.
20:16Oh.
20:17Ain't got alcohol in, has it?
20:18Oh, just a tiny little bit, just to preserve the fruit, you know.
20:21Mmm.
20:22Oh, it's very nice.
20:24What did you say it was called?
20:25Oranges and lemons.
20:26And it's just fruit, you say?
20:27Yeah, mostly, yeah, but there's plenty of wine in the kitchen.
20:30Oh, that'll do for me.
20:31Here, Nigel.
20:32How about some music?
20:33Mr C, is it all right if you have some music?
20:35Well, yes, as long as it ain't too loud, cos I don't want to upset me neighbours.
20:38Yeah, don't have another one.
20:39Oh, would you tell me that?
20:40Yeah, yeah.
20:41You keep pouring that into her, we'll be back in a minute, all right?
20:43Where are you going?
20:44Get your birthday present.
20:45Here, bruv.
20:46Have a taste of this, Nigel.
20:47Oh, thanks.
20:48Don't tell me you've run out of booze already.
20:53Er, not exactly.
20:55Well, what then?
20:56Look, poor old Nigel's dying of death over there and we need, er, reinforcements.
21:01Well, what sort of reinforcements?
21:03Oh, I get it.
21:05It is for Nigel.
21:06Yeah, it's sort of a birthday present, yeah.
21:09Look, maybe it's a bad idea.
21:10No, no, no.
21:11No, you have yourself.
21:12It's fine by me.
21:13Sorry.
21:14Right, I'm sorry, ladies, but we're going to have to ask you all to leave.
21:17You what?
21:18Do you have noticed?
21:19It's a wind-up.
21:20Who are you, anyway?
21:23I'm the landlord.
21:24Oh, is it true?
21:25Well, yeah, but I still think it's a wind-up.
21:27Listen, er, you can bring your drinks with you, but we're going to have to ask you to leave
21:30as quickly and as quietly as possible, please.
21:32Where to?
21:33There is a party over the road in urgent need.
21:35A jumpsuit, please!
21:36Let's go straight through, ladies, there's a kitchen through there, load of booze in there.
21:41It's all right.
21:42I think I've died and gone to heaven.
21:43Happy birthday, Nodge.
21:44How do I look?
21:45Go get them, son.
21:46Why not?
21:47All right.
21:48Hello, Kev.
21:49How's it going?
21:50I think that you'll see for yourself.
21:51Turn the music up.
21:52What about the neighbours, Doc?
21:53Oh, they'll be all right.
21:54Party, innit?
21:55I don't think we needed that last bottle.
21:56No one needs the wife.
21:57So whose party is it?
21:58It's May.
21:59It's May.
22:00It's May.
22:01It's May.
22:02It's May.
22:03It's May.
22:04It's May.
22:05It's May.
22:06It's May.
22:07It's May.
22:08It's May.
22:09So whose party is it?
22:10It's mine.
22:11Oh, yours?
22:12Yeah.
22:13It's good, innit?
22:14Is this your place, then?
22:15Yeah.
22:16Well, no, no.
22:17I've just...
22:18I've got a room here, you know.
22:19Oh.
22:20Just, you know, temporary, like, till I get my own place sorted out.
22:24So what's your name, then?
22:25Oh, er, Nigel.
22:26I'm Debbie.
22:27Oh.
22:28Debs.
22:29Well, my mates call me Debs.
22:31Debs.
22:32Well, er, Debs, er, do you fancy a dance, then?
22:36Oh, yeah, all right.
22:37Follow me.
22:38I'll just get him a drink.
22:39Oh, right, right.
22:40You pulled all ready, then?
22:41I might need dancing.
22:42Oh, yeah.
22:43Leave off.
22:44He's really sweet.
22:45Oh.
22:46Hello.
22:47All right.
22:48You glad you came?
22:49I'll tell you later.
22:50I'm sorry.
22:51You don't live round here, do you?
22:52I mean, I haven't seen you before.
22:53No, I'm mate of Tracy's.
22:54You know, from off the market.
22:55Oh, right, the, er, the hen party from over the Vic.
22:56We were hijacked.
22:57Eh?
22:58It doesn't matter.
22:59Ride?
23:00Yeah.
23:01Where's your granddad?
23:02Oh, he's at home, probably.
23:03Did you see who's going down the Vic later?
23:04Oh, yeah, he's probably over there, Dot.
23:05Yeah, well, he popped in here earlier and then he dashed off.
23:06He's been a bit funny all day, Mrs. Cockley.
23:07Oh, do you think I was going down the Vic later?
23:08Oh, yeah, he's probably over there, Dot.
23:09Yeah, well, he popped in here earlier and then he dashed off.
23:10He's been a bit funny all day, Mrs. Cockley.
23:12Oh, do you think I ought to go and get him?
23:13Do you want me to go?
23:14No, no, you two stay here and enjoy yourselves.
23:15I'll go.
23:16Hey, Mum, Mum, I hope you know this for your benefit.
23:17Well, if it is, I couldn't give a toss.
23:18He's wasn't here.
23:19He's waiting for me to go.
23:20I'm going to go.
23:21It's a big difference.
23:22Oh, I'm just going to go.
23:23I'm not going to go.
23:24There's a big difference.
23:25I'm not gonna go.
23:26There's a big difference.
23:27And I'm not gonna go.
23:28Don't go.
23:29Don't go.
23:30Don't go.
23:31You're not going to go.
23:32Don't go.
23:33There's a big difference.
23:34Hey, Mum, Mum, I hope you know this for your benefit.
23:38Well, if it is, I couldn't give a toss. He's wasting his time.
23:41Yeah, well, hopefully we won't have to worry about him much longer.
23:43What do you mean?
23:48Are you looking at the party, Jules?
23:50No.
23:54Hello, Doc. How's it going?
23:56Oh, it's going everything well. You're coming over later, aren't you?
24:00I'll try, yeah.
24:01Jules, what are you doing sitting here on your own?
24:04Why aren't you over the road at me party?
24:07I'm not really in a party room.
24:09Oh, what's the matter?
24:11Nothing.
24:12At least nothing you or anyone else can do anything about.
24:15Oh, I don't understand. Are you ill or something?
24:17No, I'm not ill.
24:19Well, what is it, then?
24:21Look, Jules, if I had a problem, you know, something that was bothering me,
24:25I'd like to think that I could talk to you about it.
24:29Jules?
24:31Well, it's Gidea.
24:34Well, what about her? I mean, she seems a nice enough girl.
24:37Oh, she's that all right, but that's not a problem.
24:40Well, what is?
24:42Look, I couldn't be sure.
24:44Not until I phoned home.
24:46Oh.
24:47I think she used to talk about her family.
24:50Her mother.
24:51Yes.
24:52I knew her grandmother, see.
24:53It was when she talked about her.
24:54Yes.
24:55Things were different then, Dorothy.
24:56Everybody was less tolerant.
24:58Victorian.
24:59Victorian.
25:00Yeah?
25:01But what's all this got to do with Gidea?
25:02I was a young man then.
25:05Celestine was still a baby.
25:06There was nothing I could do about it.
25:08I still don't understand.
25:09I still don't understand.
25:11Gidea is my granddaughter.
25:12I've really enjoyed tonight.
25:13Ain't over yet.
25:14No, I just thought I'd tell you now, if that's all right.
25:15Ah, of course it is.
25:16No.
25:17I've really enjoyed tonight.
25:18was supposed to be girls only tonight.
25:19Believe me, it's not what I expected either.
25:20Don't you?
25:21I just thought I'd tell you now, if that's all right.
25:25Ah, of course it is.
25:26Never expected to be doing this, though.
25:27Supposed to be girls only tonight.
25:32Believe me, it's not what I expected either.
25:35It's not what I expected either.
25:37Oh.
25:38Yeah.
25:39How am I walking?
25:40Oh, this is the last one?
25:41Yeah.
25:42Well, that's because it's why I'm not standing there.
25:44You know?
25:45I'm not, you know.
25:46not what I expected either. You're glad though, that I came, I mean. Glad ain't the word for
25:52it. I'd, um, I'd really like to see you again. I'd like that too. You would? Would you?
26:01Well, don't sound so surprised. No, no, I don't mean like that. I mean, um, when, where, who,
26:06what? Slow down. First things first. First things? Well, give us a kiss.
26:16What's second? You could get me another drink.
26:33Empty. I'll get you another one. Don't go away. I'm telling you, lads, I've cracked it. Yeah, I've heard that before.
26:39No, I mean it this time. You've got to come and see her. She's a lovely girl. Yeah, in a minute, Nigel.
26:43What a birthday, eh? Thanks, lads. Pleasure. Oh, yeah. All right. Well, Shelley seems to be getting on all right.
26:50Yeah, looks like it. Not thinking of nipping home for your toothbrush, are you? No, who are you worried about, her or me?
26:55Well, her, to be honest. Well, why is that? We're just talking. Is that a problem? You know why.
26:59What? Look, you can't blame me for being worried. She's my friend. And I'm your brother.
27:04Look, I don't want to have a go at you, Mark. It's just, I really do think you should...
27:06Oh, I've had enough. Stop talking. We're getting on. We're having a laugh. That's all. There's nothing to it.
27:12Yeah? Okay.
27:13I'm poaching, all right? I'm for a flush. I'm poaching, Nigel. Promise me.
27:17So, as you said, the invisible woman?
27:19She was here a minute ago. She must have gone to the loo or something.
27:22Oh, Tracey, have you seen Debbie?
27:23Deb, she's gone.
27:25No, she couldn't have. She was here just a minute ago.
27:27I saw her get into a cab. She really liked you, though. She said you were sweet.
27:31I'm sorry, mate.
27:42And you're sure she don't know?
27:44How could she?
27:54And classic EastEnders continues next, and there's some unexpected news at the taverners.
28:01Let us, here at Drama, keep you company this lunchtime.
