The War Zone

Jesus!

I need to fix that.

Don't make a mess.

I've found a couple of, um...

marble fireplaces.

Nice stained glass window, you know. It's really nice.

God, this beautiful... this beautiful chandelier.

Late '20s, early '30s, you know. A bit deco.

I might keep hold of that. I've got a private for that.

0h, God, I'm aching.

How much?

Well, make us an offer.

Give us a price, Vince.

That's what I paid for it.

Well, I've got to earn a living.

It's a nice piece, Vince.

Hold on.

Leave it, darling, I'll do that.

Four hundred quid, Vince.

In the book, they're twelve hundred quid.

We can all get a living out of this.

Mum?

Well, see the piece.

Well, give us four hundred quid.

Shh...shh.

Sit down, Tom.

Sit down and shut the roof.

- Are you having fun? - Yeah.

It's freezing.

Want me to stop? Do you want me to stop?

Don't stop, keep going.

Sit down, the pair of ya!

0h, shit!

0K, you lot... you lot try and get out.

Help me out!

All right, all right.

Help...me! Help me out of here!

All right, darling. All right, you're 0K.

Come here.

Come on.

I'll get the kids some tea.

Yeah, good.

Let Mummy get some rest now.

- Can I stay? - Yeah, yeah.

You all right?

Just bring him something back, will you?

What do you think of her?

She smells funny.

How are you doing?

I feel terrible.

Do you want a cuddle?

Yeah.

She's all right, I guess. Bit tired and that.

Beautiful.

So sweet and... Hang on a sec.

Don't tie up the phone, Jess.

Some nice tomatoes on toast, Tom?

Some lovely tomatoes on toast.

She's so sweet, honestly.

It's like, the tiniest little thing.

I mean, like Sammy was when he was little.

I don't know. Mum says so, but...looks more like her.

In the kitchen.

Yeah, I know. I can't wait.

All right, then.

Miss you too.

Try.

Right, bye.

Do you feel older or different having a new daughter?

Don't know - I feel a bit...scared, you know.

Get your feet off the table.

At the same time, I feel very happy.

Nosey!

Was it like that with us?

Was it? Um...

No, well, you changed... ..everything, you know?

I mean, I become a man. I got one in.

Now, him...he was forceps.

Can tell, he's got a long head. Face like a well-slapped arse.

I knew he was trouble from the start.

Is it more difficult having us, if one of you wanted to leave?

What, me or your mother?

Either.

You want a straight answer?

Yeah.

Well, it depends how selfish you feel.

You wouldn't last a minute without us, Dad.

0h, he's awake.

When I was a little boy,

I was sitting on this wall waiting for me grandad, right.

I was watching this car coming towards me,

and it swerved, and as it swerved, it took off.

The boot opened and the spare wheel fell out.

Then it hit a wall.

As it hit the wall, the passenger door opened.

This woman got thrown out.

Her arm was up her back, caught in her coat, as she fell out.

As she hit the floor -

this was all in slow motion...

Could you hold the line, please?

As she hits the floor, the car hits the floor, right?

And rolls right over on top of her.

The geezer who's driving is screaming his head off.

I wanna help, but I'm only seven.

I'm sitting there in shock.

So he goes round and lifts the car off the woman.

Strength... It's amazing, innit?

Hello?

Hello, Vince.

No, I'm just making the kids some tea.

Pheasant.

Yeah, I've got a nice pheasant pie.

You never go hungry in the country.

They're here!

Jessie, take care of Mum.

0K.

Warm enough?

Yes, thanks, darling.

Ah, she's fast asleep, little baby.

She reminds me so much of you.

0h, Mum.

She's so gorgeous.

How come her head's askew like that?

That's how it is when they're first born...

- Are they always like that? - Yeah.

Hello, Tom.

Hi, Lucy.

Don't you all look a picture.

Hi, Lucy.

Not around the baby.

Thank you very much, Lucy.

Sorry.

Ah, doesn't she look like you?

I thought you'd left the country.

Lucy, you're soaked, take your things off.

Here, darling.

It's a write-off.

Well, you insured it!

Can I speak to the manager, then?

He's not there.

I ain't waiting six months for my premium.

Going to dry off.

0n my premium, it says hired car.

You too, Tom.

You're stopping me from going to work.

No, you listen.

You're stopping me from going to work.

Someone's got a filthy mind.

Your hair's still wet.

You've got to get it.

Let it ring.

You've got to get it,

because it'll wake the baby and I have to get up in an hour.

Please, sweetheart.

Just tell them to ring back tomorrow.

Careful.

All right. All right.

Tom.

Is everything all right?

Yeah.

Couldn't you get that?

He's gotta liven himself up, him.

I took the phone off the hook.

Get some sleep.

Who was it?

You should get a corset.

I should get a corset.

Missed you.

Yeah, me, too.

I missed you so much. You're so cuddly.

It's not so bad.

What?

Devon.

They forget how to speak English when the tourists leave.

It'll be better after Easter when you start your new school.

Maybe you'll like this one.

I miss my friends.

You'll see them again. You'll make some new ones.

Down here they all have giant foreheads

and fingers sprouting from their shoulders.

And that's a sick remark.

It's a sick world.

No, he's just being greedy.

No, I'm not...

I'm not coming all the way to London on spec, Francesca.

You know what happens, I'll get up there...

and he'll offer me... yeah, he will.

- How's she been, Jess? - Quiet.

No. I got it for another customer now.

Put him on to talk to me.

Well, get him.

Water's gone - unbelievable in the morning.

Well, why can't he come to the phone?

I've got to sell it. What d'you think, I do it for me health?

Why should I come to London, if I can sell it here?

Well, what's the logic in that?

No, just put him on.

He's there counting his money, ain't he?

I'd like to be half a quid behind him.

Put him on...put him on.
