(gentle music)
What are you talking about?
He's still your son.
Right mum, I'm going.
It doesn't matter
if we're divorcing.
- Mum.
- He's still your child.
Mum, I'm going.
Lucas, not now!
(upbeat music)
'Cause I'd tear
out the pages
That I've got in these books
Just to find you some words
Just to get some reward
And I'll show you
all the photographs
That I ever got took
And I'll play you old 45s
That now mean nothing to me
And you're a real gone kid
Maybe now baby
I'll do what I
should have did
'Cause you're
a real gone kid
(upbeat music)
Ah.
(George laughing)
Don't f*cking jump me, man.
f*cking hell, chill
dude, it's just me.
Okay, okay...
Oh sh*t, sh*t, that's
Louisa over there.
You know what?
Today is the day I'm
gonna go talk to her.
That's your type?
Bit of plain ain't she?
Plain?
Dude, don't you have eyes?
She's literally like an
angel butwith t*ts, okay.
You can go on PornHub for that.
Who's to say a man
can't do both, okay?
All right.
[George] Yeah, yeah, you
think it's a good idea?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
- Yes.
- Slow down.
[Louisa] Add more
vodka in there.
(girls speaking indistinctly)
All right?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
You?
Oh me?
Yeah, yeah, no, I'm all
right, I'm all right.
And you guys are all right?
Yeah, yeah, no,
we clarified that.
Yeah, yeah, that's fine.
So, so what are you,
what are you girls...
you know, doing?
Oh, well, I'm having
a party tonight.
Oh, oh, cool, a party.
Yeah, no, oh, parties,
I love parties.
Yeah, I'm really
good at them as well.
They're really great.
Good to know.
I mean, me too.
That's why I'm having one.
Yeah, of course.
Yeah, no, of course.
You would be good, yeah.
Yeah, my parents
are away for a bit,
so it's gonna be pretty lit.
Oh, cool, cool.
Yeah, yeah.
No, it's gonna be lit.
Litty, McVitty - Right.
(both laughing)
[George] Yeah.
Why don't you come along?
You know, maybe you
could invite your friend.
Yeah, no, definitely.
Yeah, we can be there.
We're not busy tonight.
No, definitely, we'll be there.
We'll be there.
We'll be there early even.
Oh, no, no, you don't
need to be there early.
Okay, no, we won't
be there early.
That's fine.
We're cool, we'll arrive
whenever we need to.
Well, I will text
you the details.
Awesome, great.
Have you got a phone
number to do that too?
I'll find it.
- You'll find it.
- Yeah.
You'll find it.
She'll find it somewhere.
Yeah, no, of course,
you'll find it.
See you later.
Bye.
Did you see that?
Did you see that?
Yeah, I saw it, man.
No, she definitely wants me.
You're dreaming.
No, no, you saw she
was giving me the eye.
Bro, she wouldn't f*ck
you in a million years.
Oh, come on, she's well into it.
With that thing?
She'd never feel it.
Hey, come on.
You know I am hung
like I've donkey, okay.
[Lucas] More like a rabbit.
Late again, are we, boys?
Sorry sir.
(birds chirping)
So, as in the lyrics for
Leonard Cohen's, "Hallelujah,"
when it says, "The
fourth, the fifth."
Ah, making a habit of poor
punctuality, are we Myles?
That's the third time this week.
Sorry sir.
As I was saying,
"The minor fall."
Dude, where have you been?
My cousin Elliot,
drop me off in his new car.
Cool.
Hey, has he told you
about Louisa's party yet?
Who?
Don't get him started man.
No, come on, Louisa,
the really, really thick girls,
- she's invited us.
- Shh.
She's invited us to apply later.
So we are definitely going.
Mate, if that lass does
you, I'll give her a medal.
(Lucas laughing)
That's rude.
The music notes go from AC to AD
on the fourth and fifth
note whilst in G scale.
Is that the same as a
G-string or a G-spot?
(all laughing)
Yeah.
Very funny.
That's quite enough.
That was f*cking hilarious.
Right, out.
Oh, come on.
See you boys later, yeah.
That's if you don't
die of boredom by then.
That's quite enough, Myles.
You've heard enough.
You can go to Mr. Eastman's
office and wait there.
Now.
If either of you two
even sniff out a place,
you will be joining him.
So, who can tell
me in what scale
the remaining notes
should be played?
[Lucas] What did
Mr. Eastman say to you?
He didn't say sh*t.
I was like, yeah, brov,
if you try and hear that sh*t,
I'll f*cking cut you up.
(all laughing)
This guy's always trying
to cut someone up.
[George] Yeah.
And what did he say to you?
He suspended me.
Oh wait.
Oh my days, Myles, man.
Man that place is a dump though,
we should just
f*cking burn it down.
(all laughing)
What the f*ck are talking about?
Yeah, yeah.
No, let's burn it down.
Let's burn it down to the ground
so we never have to go back.
Put that down, man.
You're gonna draw
attention to us.
You saying we wouldn't do it?
No, no, I'm just
saying put away.
f*cking arse hole.
You think I'm some
kind of p*ssy?
What?
Dude, calm down.
It's, just having a
laugh mate, all right.
Get up.
Get up.
f*cking get up.
What the f*ck, Myles.
You ever f*cking talk
to me like that again
and I'll end you.
Myles, chill out, man.
f*cking stay out of it.
This is between me
and big man here.
Just having a laugh, man.
Whatever man.
I'm thirsty.
Yeah, let's get a
Coke or something.
Nah, I'm gonna
steal some alcohol.
You too good with that?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Yeah, let's do it.
Yeah, come on.
f*cking come on then.
(gentle music)
(people speaking indistinctly)
(police sirens blaring)
I'm arresting you on
suspicion of shoplifting.
Anything you do or
say will be taken down
and used against you.
Myles, I haven't done anything.
(glass crunching)
(police sirens blaring)
Myles, don't.
Come on.
What, we can't leave him there.
f*ck him.
(dramatic music)
(clock ticking)
Ah, Ms. Thompson,
please take a seat.
What has he done now?
Lucas has been arrested
on the suspicion
of shoplifting a
bottle of alcohol.
What's wrong with you?
Mum, come on.
I've told you time
and time again
to pack up doing this to me.
Your son has a history of
this type of behaviour.
Well, yes.
Well, nothing to this extent.
He's a good boy.
Really he is.
It's just been a
tough time lately.
Problems at home?
His father and I are
going through a divorce.
It's been,
we've got a lot of
court dates ahead.
It's a challenging time.
You able to gimme the names
of the other boys
involved, Lucas?
Where there were other boys?
Did they make you do this?
Lucas, there's no honour
amongst thieves, trust me.
For goodness sake.
Just tell him.
I'm not a snitch.
That depends on what
you wanna be in life.
You can either choose to
make the right choice,
do the right thing,
or can choose to let
people walk all over you.
They're my mates.
You sure about that?
I've got a statement here
from the arresting officer
that says you were
carrying a knife on you.
What?
That wasn't me.
That was.
Hello, can I help you?
Yeah, are you busy today?
Yeah, not too bad.
Can I help though?
Yeah.
Lottery tickets.
Yeah, we've got more here.
Yeah, there they are.
Yeah, but I wouldn't
need to see your ID
- before you purchase it.
- Oh.
Oh no, that's fine.
I'm just looking at them.
They're nice, nice
and colourful.
Like a little rainbow.
- Yeah.
- Colourful.
Yeah.
Just grab a bottle
and put it your bag.
Which bottle?
It don't matter.
It's not difficult.
You got this?
Yeah.
You sure?
[Lucas] Cool.
Cool.
[Shopkeeper] Anything
else I can help you with?
Do you have condoms?
Definitely.
Gimme some cigarettes.
Beg your pardon?
Cigarettes.
Got ID on you?
Left it at home.
No ID, no service,
unfortunately.
Oh, f*ck you.
Excuse me?
You show me ID,
I will serve you.
[Myles] Stupid b*tch.
[Shopkeeper] I beg your pardon?
You carry on, I'll
call the police on you.
[Myles] Stupid b*tch.
Don't talk to me like that.
You carry on, I'll
call the police on you.
Don't f*cking move.
Sorry, excuse me.
(people speaking indistinctly)
- Get out of my shop.
- So sorry, let's go.
- Get out.
- Come on, let's go.
[Shopkeeper] Go.
Lucas,
if you don't give me the
names of the others involved
then the CPS are more
likely to charge you.
I can't help you
unless you help me
get to the bottom of this.
Will he go to prison for this?
Not necessarily.
He's of a certain age
and this type of crime
doesn't usually warrant
a prison sentence.
So he'll get a warning?
Not exactly.
Given he has a history of
this type of behaviour.
I'll speak to a colleague,
see if we can get
a waiver with a CPS
and get your circumstances
taken into consideration.
Best we can hope for will
be a young offender scheme.
Sorry, what is that?
As he's not willing to imply
and give the names of
the others involved,
then he'll have to undertake
a certain amount of hours
in the community payback scheme.
How would that be monitored?
He'll be put on a strict curfew.
Probation officer will
be assigned to his case
and will liaise with
you to make sure
that he complies at home.
I'm afraid there won't be
any school in the meantime.
I'm not doing it, mum, I'm not.
Well, you ought
to hope it's that
instead of a prison sentence?
'Cause I'm telling
you now, Lucas,
you won't last two
minutes inside.
You know what happened
with your father.
I'm sick of this with you.
Absolutely sick of it.
Someone needs to
straighten you out.
I didn't leave your
father for this.
I've done my bit.
If this is what it
takes for you to realise
what I've given up for you.
Don't you dare walk
away from me, Lucas.
[Myles] Oh, so you got
through it okay then.
Where the f*ck were you both?
I didn't know what to do.
You could have helped.
Sorry, man.
No, what are you
apologising for?
Lucas here needs to
learn how to be a big boy
and to fend for himself.
I could have been put
in a cell 'cause of you.
Yeah, except you
didn't though, did you?
So everyone's all right.
Just chill out, bro.
Chill out.
Says the one that
pulled out a knife.
You never told me
about that sh*t.
Well, that was a need
to know kind of thing.
Well, that's something
I needed to know.
Now they're saying I'm the
one that pulled out a knife
and started pointing
it everywhere.
What did they say?
They're saying I gotta do some
community service bullshit.
But that's nothing, man.
Me and my cousin did that.
Be over in a few months.
That's not the point, brov.
You're meant to be my mates.
You're meant to have my back.
So it's my fault you can't
run fast in enough, you lag?
You could have held us all up.
You got caught.
And on top of that,
you smashed the bottle.
That's your own fault.
Whatever, I gotta go.
Yeah, that's it.
Run on to mummy.
Lucas.
Are we good?
Yeah, we're good.
Cool.
Okay.
See you later, man.
(van door thudding)
What you say your
name was again?
Lucas.
All right, Lucas,
this is the way
it's gonna be for
the next few months.
I have one rule.
Always have a uniform,
always be on time,
try not to me off.
And that way we'll
get along fine.
Do you understand?
Isn't that three rules though?
(Steve laughing)
What are you a comedian?
Do you wanna get on with
this and get this done?
Or do you wanna stand around
counting your fingers?
Sorry.
Right.
So you see this,
this is for the people,
it's not your private
lunchbox, do you understand?
Sure, man.
I'm not your man,
I'm not your brother,
I'm not your brov,
I'm your supervisor.
Try and treat with a
little bit of respect.
Word to the wise,
do not piss people off
'cause you'll wind up
at a detention centre.
Right, you take that, you
walk over to that door,
you ring the doorbell, and
then you give the man the food.
What, that door there?
That door there?
Is that all I do?
Look, you can do
it on your head.
You can walk backwards
doing the f*cking time walk,
for all I care.
I do not give a f*ck.
Just go over there
and deliver the food.
Think you can manage that?
Bye Lucas.
(dramatic music)
(van doors thudding)
(gentle music)
(van door thudding)
(car engines revving)
(gentle music)
(Lucas knocking)
Hello.
What?
I have food for you.
Oh for Christ's sake.
Just leave 'em on the mat.
I clearly wrote on my form,
I do not wanna have
to open my door.
Oh, I think I'm supposed
to hand it to you though.
I ain't going any
close to you, mate.
You lot carry all
sorts of germs.
These look, all out of date,
you've taken so
long to deliver 'em.
And you can take them back
to wherever you come from.
You what?
Lucas, what's
taking you so long?
Hang on.
What's the problem?
Is there a problem?
Yes.
I disapprove of the
contents of this crate.
No, no, no.
- Steve.
- All right, Lucas,
Lucas, Lucas, Lucas.
I'll tell you what I'll do,
I'll take away this one with
contents you disapprove of
and bring back another one
with contents you approve of.
How about that, Mr. Miller?
Yeah.
How about that,
Mr. Miller, yeah?
Yeah.
Happy days.
Yeah.
Okay, and tell him to
wear a mask in future.
Absolutely.
Whatever you want.
Come on let's go.
- Trust me, Lucas let's go.
- To spread all your germs.
I want a new case.
(dramatic music)
(car engines revving)
God.
(door thudding)
More like r*cist.
How's he get away with that?
Look, I'm not
excusing him, right,
but he very rarely
ever goes out.
In fact, no one
visits him, right.
So it's easy, don't bother
him and he won't bother you.
But you told me to
knock on his door.
And I thought we'd
leave the f*cking food
on the f*cking
doorstep, didn't I?
Look, just put it down as a
reminder for next time, yeah.
Just let it go.
(car engines revving)
(gentle music)
Help.
Help.
Mr. Miller?
I need help.
What?
I can't get to you,
the door's locked.
I got a spare key underneath
one of my plant pots.
The what?
I'll have a spare key
underneath one of my plant pots.
[Steve] Lucas, what you doing?
All right, I'm coming in.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
You can't just go
walking in there.
Oh my God, Mr. Miller,
are you okay?
Yes.
I think he's hurt.
[Steve] I'll call an ambulance.
No, no ambulance.
Well, you're hurt.
I'll be all right.
Just help me up.
You need to be seen mate.
Come on, up you get.
Oh, oh.
You sure you don't wanna
go outta the hospital,
get checked out?
Now listen here.
I had many a fall on the pitch,
so don't think I can't
handle a few steps.
I'm not as weak as
I look, you know.
You played football?
Yeah, I was a footballer
back in my time.
Now pass me my stick, boy.
But you sure there's
nothing we can do for you?
No, no, I'm quite all right.
What happened, did you fall?
Yeah.
It's those, those ruddy stairs
could never get
down in one piece.
You should probably
be checked over.
No, no,
no ambulances, no hospitals,
can't stand the places.
Fit is a fiddle, me.
Well, all right look, we kind
of hang about here all day,
we got other deliveries to do.
Let's get on, eh.
I'll just put this
down somewhere.
Put it in the kitchen.
I saw you play, you know.
Centre half, weren't you?
Yeah.
Well, well, well.
(gentle music)
When was that then?
'73, '74.
Oh blimey.
Someone remembers me, hey.
Yeah.
I didn't think anybody was
alive, that's seen me play.
Yeah, you'd be surprised.
Lucas, hurry the up,
we ain't got all day.
(gentle music)
What is he doing
in there, is he?
He's delivering your food.
You trust him?
Yeah, of course, I trust him.
Right, you sure
you're all right?
Yeah, yeah, I'm all
right, I'm all right.
(gentle music)
(car engines revving)
He didn't say thank you.
Well, he's not the
thankful kind of guy is he?
What do you think you was
doing, going inside there?
But he said he was hurt.
Look, lemme explain
something to you, right.
Something goes missing,
something gets nicked,
you'll get the blame.
Don't forget, he's
got Alzheimer's.
He could give something away
and accuse you of nicking it.
Seen it before.
Let me in then.
Try it now.
How long you had
this thing, Steve?
Too long.
(van door thudding)
Did Lucas say if he
was joining us today?
Fam, I haven't
heard much from him
since he started doing that
community service sh*t.
Who's Lucas again?
He's the one who
didn't rat on us
when we f*cked up
the corner shop.
Yeah.
That's 'cause Lucas dropped
the f*cking bottle of alcohol.
Proper f*cked up
the whole thing.
Yeah, but at least
he didn't snitch.
Could have been a
lot worse, you know.
We barely see him now though.
He's been acting very weird.
Did he say we're about he's
doing the community service?
Nah.
We could probably go look.
Oh no.
Come on, leave it out, Myles.
Shut up.
He's supposed to
be our best mate.
He's busy giving
an oldies company
instead of hanging
around with us.
He's getting sidetracked.
He's starting to piss me off.
Well, yeah, but it's not
like he wants to do it.
Myles has a point though.
Lucas does seem like
a strange guy to me.
Well, no, he's just
quiet, you know.
And since when did anyone
get anywhere in this world
by being quiet.
Too true.
Look, I think you should
just stay out of it.
I think you should
f*cking shut up.
I'm just saying.
(dramatic music)
(Lucas knocking)
[Lucas] Mr. Miller.
(gentle music)
(door hinge creaking)
What?
I'm Lucas, I deliver your food.
I don't get food in the
week, only at weekends.
No, no, I know you don't
get food during the week.
I was the one that
found you the other day
and I just wanted to make
sure that you're okay.
I'm fine.
(door thudding)
Well f*ck you then.
(gentle music)
Trying to do something nice
and this is what I get.
Hey kid,
there is something
you could do for me.
And that is?
(car engines revving)
(door thudding)
(footsteps thudding)
Yeah, you can start
by setting the table.
And I want tea made.
Cup of tea?
We don't need a cup of tea.
We need a pot of tea.
They're all upstairs.
And warm the pot.
They?
Yes, they boy.
Now go on with it, boy.
Three cups.
And I want you
where I can see you,
when you're in my house.
Lord knows what you'll try
to take out in your pockets.
Always stealing,
always trying to take
you off, I don't know.
Gotta keep me eye on 'em
all the time, all the time.
Tea.
Tea leaves, all of them.
Come on, lad,
the tea will be cold.
(Arthur speaking indistinctly)
These will do, yeah?
Yeah, yeah, that'll do.
Yeah.
I want some music on.
Music?
Over there.
Oh yeah.
Over there, over there.
Left for me
Of days that used to be
They're just a memory
among my souvenirs
(gentle upbeat music)
Some letters sad and blue
A photograph or two
I see a rose from you
among my souvenirs
(gentle upbeat music)
A few more tokens rest
within my treasure chest
And though they
do their best
To give me consolation
(gentle upbeat music)
I count them all apart
And as the teardrops start
I find a broken heart
among my souvenirs
Okay.
All right, easy.
Take it easy.
Oh.
Over there, my
beautiful wife, Eileen.
[Lucas] It's a lovely guitar.
Don't you touch that.
That was my wife's.
Did she play guitar?
Yeah.
Sometimes I would listen
to her play all night long.
I remember I used to
watch her on stage,
at the holiday camps,
but that was decades ago.
I like music.
My dad used to play in a band.
He promised he'd teach
me how to play one day.
But you know, when
my parents split up,
he went off with another woman.
(gentle music)
Sit down.
Listen son, you can go
wherever you want in life.
Just remember one thing,
nothing can recreate your youth.
Remember who you are
and where you're from.
But don't let
anyone see you fall.
What happen to your wife?
Ah, she's died of
cancer, seven years ago.
She was the love of my life.
The music we would dance to,
we would dance all
night long sometimes.
Oh.
(gentle music)
To lose someone you love is
to alter your life forever.
The pain stops that gap,
it never quite closes.
And all we understand is,
and only after it's placed
his hand on someone we love.
She looked very pretty.
Still, what did you do to be
delivering meals, young man?
Oh, I was caught shoplifting.
Why did you do that?
I don't know.
For fun maybe.
You kids.
You don't know what
it's like to be bored.
When I was your age,
I was working three
different jobs, three.
Three different jobs,
at the same time?
How is that even possible?
Of course it's possible.
I'll do paper rounds
early in the morning
before I went to school.
And then I did a night
shift in a supermarket.
And on Saturdays I used to work
on my father's fruit stall.
(Lucas laughing)
f*ck.
Hey, hey, language lad.
I just don't see the
point in being good.
It's like, what's
the point in living
if you don't belong anywhere?
Ah, cry for help.
I see.
No, no, I'm not an
attention seeker.
Listen son, there's
no necessity for you
to change who you are,
but there's always
room for improvement.
Life is about making mistakes
and learning from 'em.
Yeah, well it's
easy for you to say.
You didn't grow up
in a modern society
where everyone expects you
to be something you're not.
Be true to yourself.
Always be true to yourself.
There are not many
that'll be true to you.
When are those three people
gonna come down from upstairs?
Huh, three people?
What are you
witchering on about?
Pops, you home?
Ah, my beautiful granddaughter.
What's your name?
It's Amy, pops.
Amy, Amy.
[Amy] And who's this?
This is,
this is.
Lucas.
Yeah.
He's doing that community thing.
He delivers my meals for me.
And why have you got
three cups of tea out?
God knows.
I only asked for one.
No, he told me there was
three people upstairs.
You told me that.
You deaf boy.
I've already told you that,
there's nobody upstairs.
Okay pops, calm down.
I'll tidy up.
What took you so long?
Sorry pops.
The queue in the supermarket
was an absolute nightmare.
That's why I don't go out.
All those crowds of people.
No, no, no.
I can't be dealing with that.
Oh, pops, it's not
that bad out there.
You really need to start
getting out more often.
You promised you
would try, remember?
I did?
I should get going.
My mum's probably
worrying about me.
I'll see you out.
Lucas,
you will be coming
back, won't you?
What?
I enjoyed the company.
You come back sometime.
I'm sure he will, pops.
Really?
That means he likes you.
That's a first.
(gentle music)
Sorry, he made you
do all that tea.
Oh, that's all right.
Don't worry about it.
He doesn't really get many
visitors apart from me.
Really?
I'm sorry if I was intruding.
Oh no, not at all.
It's nice to see him just
chatting away to someone,
really is.
Well I better get going,
I'm late enough as it is.
See ya.
Amy,
your granddad leaves money
notes in one of his books.
I think he should make sure
he keeps it in a safer place.
You know someone could
break in and steal it.
Right, well thank you.
(gentle music)
See you later.
(gentle music)
(car engines revving)
(gentle music)
It's your son.
Why am I left with it?
You don't even buy him
a f*cking birthday card.
Oh yeah.
Well I hope she's
f*cking worth it.
Lucas.
What are you doing home so late?
I had to go check up on
one of those old people
I deliver food to.
You better be taken
this seriously.
I am.
Lucas, I swear if
you f*ck this up,
let me tell you something,
I am not covering
for you anymore.
I'm sick of all the letters
coming through my door
and I've got all this
worry on my mind.
Let's just not start
this now, please.
Let's don't start this?
Let's don't start this, Lucas?
If I find out that
you are hanging around
with those boys again,
doing God knows what,
that's it, I'm done.
Was that dad on the phone?
Dad?
Don't talk to me about
that monster of a man.
So I'm not seeing him
this weekend, am I?
He's busy with work.
I always did come
last in the family.
Even you think more
of your new boyfriend
than you do of me.
Lucas, that's not true.
And his name is Dennis.
I give a f*ck what
his name is, mum.
You wanna watch your mouth.
And what number
boyfriend is this?
I've lost count.
Lucas.
Whatever.
Lucas.
(dramatic music)
Why have I gotta clean this?
Because it's there,
Lucas because it's there.
What we do there?
Clean the graffiti off.
No one uses this.
Doesn't matter, clean it off.
(birds chirping)
Is that what you get paid for,
holding a clipboard all day?
For your information, I
used to be in your shoes.
It takes a lot of time and
effort to get to the top.
What, holding a clipboard
is what you call
being at the top?
Well I'm holding the clipboard
and you are getting your
hands freezing cold,
scrubbing off sh*t.
Hey, what'd you do then?
Can you keep it secret?
I tried to steal the crown
jewels from The Tower of London.
No, seriously, what'd you do?
Dumb me, I got caught.
Best thing that could
ever happened to me
doing community service.
I heard you got caught
stealing the old lady's purses.
Yeah, well you were wrong.
But how'd you
become a supervisor?
Well, I just thought, you know,
I'd help young offenders
out in the same way
someone helped me out
when I was younger.
What this is what you call help?
Well, sometimes you gotta
be cruel to be kind.
You know, a little
slap on the wrist,
that doesn't educate
you for life, you know,
just don't do the trick.
I know I've been there.
So you enjoy your job then?
It's not about enjoying it,
it's about paying
bills, you know.
It's a tough world out there.
And if you don't
prepared for it,
then you're pretty much f*cked.
You can stand around all
day or you can get it done.
Come on, the sooner you do it,
the sooner you get out here.
And put some elbow
grease into it.
It's been here for years.
Lucas, come put
some effort into it.
I'm scrubbing it.
(car engines revving)
Steve.
We're done for the
day, what's the matter?
Is it cool if I make
my own way home today?
Yeah, look whatever,
but listen, don't be
late for your curfew,
I'll see you Monday.
All right, see you later.
(car engines revving)
(van door thudding)
When's Eileen coming home?
Arthur.
Amy.
Ah, Lucas.
Tell her, will you?
Granddad, calm down.
What?
Lucas, tell her.
Tell her what?
What's going on?
Tell her Eileen's gonna
be here any minute.
She's dead, granddad.
Stop lying.
Don't lie.
She passed away seven years ago!
Don't you remember?
Oh, I've gotta go.
Mum wants me to give her a
hand with dinner tonight.
Amy.
Who?
Amy.
Amy wait.
Amy, Amy, wait.
Are you all right?
I'm fine.
What's wrong with him?
Don't you know?
He's got dementia.
His memory comes and
goes all the time.
But sometimes it's so wearing.
And it's got worse.
And I dunno what to do.
My mom won't come
with me to see him
because she finds it
too heartbreaking.
Your mom won't come see him?
But that's his daughter.
Yeah, well he's got
the dementia now, so,
sometimes he doesn't
even remember us.
I keep having to remind
him what my name is.
Sometimes he looks right
through me and it just kills me.
I'm sorry.
I just wonder how much
longer he is got left.
He has so many falls.
I keep telling him to
stop using those stairs,
but he's so stubborn and
thinks he's still young.
Mum.
Oh right, okay.
I'll be home as
soon as possible.
I'm just leaving pops.
Okay, sure, I'll see you soon.
I'm so sorry my parents need me.
No, it's fine.
I'll go check if
Arthur's all right.
Thanks.
(car engines revving)
I don't know where you are.
Where are you?
I thought we could have
a little sing song.
(Arthur laughing)
I dunno what they mean.
But I know you'll be here soon.
We have a little singsong, eh?
Ah.
Arthur, you all right?
Hello.
What are you doing here?
I came to check on you.
Oh.
You all right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just waiting for Eileen.
She'll be here soon.
Why don't we go out?
Go out?
I don't go out.
We'll go to the caf,
get something to eat.
Oh,
- I've gotta get a cup of tea.
- Come on,
you're hungry, yeah?
Let's get something to eat.
We'll get tea, we'll
get a sandwich.
What would you like, a sandwich?
No, no, well I ain't going
out, I ain't going outside.
I don't go out.
You know that, I don't go out.
Let's go to the caf.
No, I don't go out.
There's too many people.
There's no one
there, it's quiet.
You don't, how do you
know, how do you know?
I've been there.
- No, I ain't going.
- Listen,
I promise it's quiet.
There's no one there.
No one goes in there.
Where we going?
To the caf, down the road,
get something to eat.
I dunno.
But what if Eileen
comes and I'm not here.
I'll let her know
we're going, all right.
I've gotta change.
I can't go like this,
she sees me like this.
All right, we can get changed.
I gotta get smartened up.
Put your coat on, let's go.
Yeah.
Well yeah.
All right, let's do it.
Have you got money?
Yeah, yeah, I'll
take care of it.
You gonna pay for this?
I'll take care of it, let's go.
And you're not gonna
leave me there are you?
'Cause I don't want you just
wandering off like you do.
I won't wander off.
I won't leave you, I promise.
I'll be there.
All right, but I get changed.
But don't go shuffling
around here, will you?
I dunno what you're
doing, all right.
Won't be a minute, all right.
All right, I'll wait for you.
You wait there, right?
I'm going.
(footsteps tapping)
So what do you wanna
be when you grow up?
I don't know.
Never really thought about it.
How do you not think about
something as vital as that?
Your youth is gonna
fly by my boy.
Don't let life pass you by.
No, no, it's just,
I really just don't
know what I want to do.
That's because your teachers
are not teaching you
the things you need to know.
But isn't that what
they're meant to do,
teach you everything
you need to know?
They just teach you
the academics my boy.
They don't teach you life skills
or real life, real experience.
You never really learn anything
until they throw you
out in the world.
Were you good at school?
Yeah, I was quite an intelligent
man, back in the day.
I loved books.
I have a lot of books.
I noticed that.
Teachers today, you know,
they're kids themselves,
no experience, nothing.
And yet they still
think they know it all.
I mean, look at her over there,
just cleaning tables.
And she thinks the world
owes her something.
You kids,
you wouldn't know hard work
if it slapped you in the face.
(car engines revving)
Have you always been like this?
Realism, my boy.
I call it being a realist.
So come on.
What are your interests?
I dunno.
Football, I guess.
Yeah, I like playing football.
Do you play often?
Sometimes.
Not much recently though.
Been busy you know.
Oh.
Busy being a nobody.
All right, no need to get rude.
Look, if you lose
respect for yourself,
everyone else will.
You've got anger?
Yeah.
Tonnes.
Well then put it a good use.
That's what I did.
Football was my, health
release, I suppose,
a way of dealing
with my emotions.
Oh yeah.
What, smash people's
windows in, didn't you?
And watch your attitude.
That's the first thing
they notice about you.
If you stay positive, you'll
see opportunities in life.
Not just obstacles.
Can I have some of that.
Yeah.
Are you listening to me?
Yeah.
No, I'm listening.
This needs a bit of ketchup.
I don't know.
You two okay?
- Yes, thank you.
- You done here.
Thank you.
Okay, thank you.
Did you enjoy everything?
- Yep.
- Yes.
All very good.
Thank you.
I'll pick up the
sandwiches in a minute.
(gentle music)
(car engines revving)
(gentle music)
(birds chirping)
Oh, come on.
Wipe your feet.
(gentle music)
(door hinge creaking)
(gentle music)
(door thudding)
Got mail for you, Mr. Miller.
All right.
Where is it?
Yeah, what's the point?
This country's finished.
What do you mean?
This country has been
consumed by politics
for flaming years.
And it's not gonna get any
better, I tell you that now.
Isn't that just been negative?
This country is already
one big negative.
As citizens, the
British-born that is,
we struggle to see
the positives anymore.
What's the difference
between all these anyway?
Like how is someone supposed
to know which one to vote for?
It's all based on
what you believe
is gonna benefit your future.
Well, how am I supposed to know?
Because, this is something
you've gotta get to know.
This is your life, not mine.
Look, there are
two main parties.
There's the conservative
party and the labour party.
[Lucas] Parties?
Oh yeah.
It's another word for sides.
They're on different
sides of society.
You've got the conservative,
that support the
rich side of society,
and you've got the labour
which support the
poor side of society.
Why?
That's stupid.
Shouldn't they support both?
Yeah, well that's
what politics is.
(gentle music)
Listen, this one is a labour MP.
Okay.
He supports the poor people.
The poor people are the
ones that use the NHS
because they can't afford
private healthcare.
So what exactly does he do
as a labour MP if he wins?
Well, he cares for the poor.
And he will make sure
there's funding for the NHS
and he'll invest in things like
affordable travel
for young people.
And he'll make sure there's
more police on our streets.
Things like that.
Things that make our streets
safe and our lives affordable.
(gentle music)
So he like represents those
people and not the rich.
That's exactly right.
Okay.
Who would you vote for?
Conservative?
Me, oh no, I'm labour.
But you're not poor.
Well, I'm not now.
But I was brought up
on a low-income family.
I come from a poor family.
I've worked hard all
my life for this house.
(gentle music)
Now if the conservatives
start to get votes,
they don't care about the
things that matter in life.
They're greedy.
They rob the people of
every penny they earn.
That's not fair.
No, that's why it's so important
for people of your age to vote.
It's your future it affects.
But you are not voting?
I don't have to.
I've had my life.
Nothing's gonna
change in my lifetime.
But yours, yours matters.
You've gotta fight
while you're young.
But the things you do now,
the things will impact
on everything else,
and your children.
No, no, I'm never having kids.
(both laughing)
Oh, they all say that.
I did once.
But when you are young and
in love, these things happen
and life takes hold of you.
Don't you get
scared of grown old?
Why would I?
It's a privilege denied to many.
(gentle music)
Well, I better get going.
My mom's gonna start
to wonder where I am.
She gave me a curfew,
she'll go mad if I break it.
(gentle music)
Yeah, you get home
safely young man.
Hey Lucas.
Yes, Mr. Miller.
You're a good boy, you are.
I know you've got a
good heart in you.
(gentle music)
Thank you.
(gentle music)
(door thudding)
(gentle music)
(car engines revving)
(gentle music)
Oh, oh, oh.
Go flat, go flat.
Well come on then.
One.
(all laughing)
(people speaking indistinctly)
(all laughing)
(gentle music)
Oh, one.
(all laughing)
(people speaking indistinctly)
(gentle music)
It's quite a nice garden.
Thanks so much for being
there for granddad.
Oh, that's cool.
No big deal.
Arthur's actually quite cool.
Yeah, guess he is quite a laugh.
(both laughing)
So when do you think your
community service will end?
Oh, Steve was telling me
I got another two months,
I think.
Yeah.
Does that mean you won't come
around to see us anymore?
I mean, I could still come
see you guys if you'd like.
Yeah,
I'd like for you to
keep coming to see us.
Do you think Arthur
would like that?
Lucas.
I don't know.
I don't know if he
likes me or not.
I've never seen grand
so full of life.
It's like you really brought
him out of his shell.
He never used to go
out and now he does.
He never used to go out?
No.
Getting him on the other
side of the front door, oh.
And now he actually mingles.
Amy.
Yeah?
Are you,
are you seeing
anyone, or anything?
No.
No way
You say that like it's a relief
In a way, yeah.
Boys are complicated.
What?
Not as much as girls are.
Hey.
(both laughing)
I just, you know, I
wanted to ask you,
I think we should, you know,
hang out on our own some time,
without Arthur.
I mean I love him, but.
Are you asking me out?
Yeah.
Yeah, I am.
(gentle upbeat music)
All right then.
Okay.
(gentle upbeat music)
(people speaking indistinctly)
That wasn't too good.
When do I get to play.
Soon George.
You guys say that every time
and I never get to play.
[Lucas] All right boys?
Lucas, hey man.
Hey, where you been?
Just been busy.
Yeah, you always are, lately.
All right, calm down.
This is my cousin.
Yo, my name's Elliot.
Think I've seen you about.
Yeah, Lucas is the one
who didn't rat on us.
Yeah, we already had
that conversation.
Okay, geez.
Lucas goes to the
same school as us.
Heard you're in
community service.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're lucky though.
You don't have to go to school.
We're still stuck there
doing shitty exams and stuff.
School sucks.
You should come out
with us sometime.
Yeah?
Yeah man.
Yeah, that'd be cool man.
Yeah, you sure about that?
Sure you're not too busy doing,
what does he do again?
Delivering food parcels.
Yeah, to old people that is.
(all laughing)
Anyways, let's
cut off this game.
It's getting dead in here.
- Yeah.
- Well where we gonna go then?
Elliot's got a tattoo shop.
Mate, you have a tattoo shop?
Why didn't you tell me?
Could you do me one?
(all laughing)
You have to be 18,
but could probably
hook it up for you.
Yeah.
Oh, sick.
Won't you lose your
licence though?
(singer vocalising)
Not if you don't tell no one.
All right, I'm just playing man.
Anyways.
I've been working on
this tattoo yesterday.
- Oh cool.
- Aha.
Now this on a back.
- f*ck man, that looks sick.
- Dude, that is so cool.
[Myles] Yo, can I
get one of his mum?
(all laughing)
Hey, be nice to her.
What about you Lucas?
What sort of tattoos
are you into?
Nah, I'm not really a
fan of tattoos, man.
Don't like tattoos?
I think you should get one, man.
That's not really my thing.
You're such a boring
f*ck, you know that.
No wonder you're stuck
on community payback.
What the f*ck you
starting on me for?
I don't like tattoos, then what?
Yeah, come on man,
leave him out.
He just don't like tattoos.
- What, I'm just saying.
- Stay out of it, George.
You've been such a
bore since you started
hanging around with oldies
and delivering their food
or whatever the you call it.
What's your problem?
Come on, f*ck off.
f*ck you.
Wait, Lucas, Lucas,
where you going, mate?
[Myles] Leave him alone, George.
Nice one, Myles.
(upbeat music)
My brother I know it's
not gonna make you
(singer vocalising)
All the dreams I had, I'ma
make them all complete
(upbeat music)
Hey love.
Hey.
I've got some fish and chips.
Come and join me.
Come and have some.
How was your day?
How'd you afford this?
Dennis has been
leaving me some money
and he's coming over.
Why?
Oh, Lucas please.
Why are you letting
him hang around?
He's a good man.
Sure he is.
He's just using you, mum.
Even leaving you money on the
side like some prost*tute.
He's providing food for us.
Do you expect me to
be on my own forever?
I am entitled to move on
from your father, Lucas.
Dennis can keep
his stinking food.
I can't believe you're trying
to replace dad so quick.
I'm not.
He's moved on so why can't I?
And what about me mum?
I'm your son.
Lucas, give a rest already.
You promised me.
You promised me it was
just gonna be us today.
- And you bring this.
- Viv, you in?
Hey.
[Dennis] How you doing baby?
Good.
[Dennis] How you?
Doing well.
I had to park like
three streets away.
Poor you.
Your legs must
really f*cking hurt.
Lucas, where you
going with that?
(footsteps thudding)
I'm so sorry.
(van door thudding)
See, this is what happens
when you push 'em.
The trouble with these kids
is all up wet weekends.
Yeah, but this Lucas,
he's actually a good kid.
You're right, he is a good kid.
But he's in serious
danger of f*cking up.
Just go easy on him.
Where you been?
You're late.
I'm here now.
Yeah, but you weren't
here at 10:30 was you?
I overslept.
Don't bullshit me.
I've been bullshitted
by the best.
And trust me, you
ain't in that league.
Look Steve, just leave it.
I had a rough night, all right.
What does it matter?
What do we do?
Every week I have
to fill in a report
about your punctuality,
about your behaviour.
And the last thing you
want is me putting down
you've been late.
Now I don't know what's
going on with you.
But you need to remember
what got you here
in the first place.
You crossed an ocean for someone
that wouldn't jump
over a puddle for you.
And you need to remember that.
Yeah, what's the point?
Not like my parents give a sh*t.
You don't do it to make
other people happy,
you do it for yourself.
I don't give a sh*t either.
What am I doing here Steve?
You've got me here
cleaning walls
saying that you're
helping me out.
This ain't helping me out.
You ain't helping no one.
See there's your
problem in a nutshell.
You just don't
give a do you son?
f*ck this man.
Oi.
- Let him f*cking go.
- Lucas, come on.
(gentle music)
Yeah, in the park now.
(gentle music)
(footsteps crunching)
(gentle music)
Hello son.
What are you doing
here at this time?
Just chilling.
Just chilling.
Yeah.
Bit late isn't it?
I ain't got a bedtime.
There's been a report of
some theft in the area.
And what's that
got to do with me?
Well you fit the description.
Of course I do.
Some young black
kids doing in cars
and nicking the stuff inside.
Not me.
I'm gonna need to conduct
a body search on you.
For what?
I ain't done that.
- No, it means that.
- Why you got your cuffs out?
I want to search you.
Put your cuffs away then.
Can I search you?
Are you gonna hold
up your hands?
Why you got your cuffs out then?
I thought you're searching,
put your cuffs down.
- Hold out your hands.
- That's what
I f*cking thought.
- I need to search you.
- Why are you
following me for?
- I need to search you.
- What have I done wrong?
(dramatic music)
[Elliot] Get you getting
better at this George?
Yeah, yeah, I'm doing my best.
It's not difficult.
Well it's a little
bit difficult.
You've got numbers and
shapes and colours.
That's three things.
(dramatic music)
You all right mate?
You sound out of breath.
I just had to outrun a pig.
You outran a pig?
What.
Are there pigs in the street?
No, you f*ck tart.
Pigs is what people
call the police.
It's a nickname.
Stupid f*ck.
(dramatic music)
Anyway, what's that
pig chasing you for?
I dunno.
I was just in the park and he
said he wanted to search me.
I ain't even done nothing.
f*cking wankers.
They won't find you here.
I thought we should do
something fun tonight.
Yeah.
Yeah, like what?
Why don't we try some of the
houses in the neighbourhood?
(George laughing)
What do you mean?
He wants to rob some
houses you f*ck wit.
Keep up.
Yeah.
Let's do it.
Oh actually guys, I know a
proper small little cosy place.
I saw it last week.
Hey, wait, that's mine.
Sorry.
Give it here.
Oh, come on.
I'm f*cking bored.
You guys are dead.
Why don't we go out,
have a look around.
I'm not robbing no houses, man.
Why not, you melt?
Because I gotta get home.
What, so you go to bed at
six now, like a little kid?
(all laughing)
f*cking p*ssy.
Yeah, "Cbeebies" over now?
I don't wanna get in no
more trouble, all right.
See I told you he's a melt.
You're not gonna get
into trouble, Lucas.
You can just stand
outside if you want.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean you might as
well come with us.
You're already here.
What's the point
in going home now?
There's nothing better there
waiting for you, is there?
Yeah.
Can't let us down now.
(dramatic music)
(car engine revving)
(dramatic music)
Right Lucas, you go in first
and tell us if
it's clear or not.
What, this house here?
Yeah, that one right there.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
But the lights are still on.
Aren't we gonna get caught?
So?
f*ck they gonna do about it?
Okay, fair.
What are we gonna take then?
I wanna make money fam,
this is enabled to find it.
You get me?
Yeah.
No, I'm not, I'm not
sure about this man.
You're not backing out, now.
Let's do a different house.
Let's do that one there.
What's wrong with this house?
Is there something
you wanna say?
No,
like George said, look,
the lights are still on.
Look, there's cameras up there.
This ain't smart man.
You're going soft on me?
No, no, I'm just saying.
Oh, is that what you do?
You just say things?
Look, I can't get
no more sh*t man.
My community service
officers on me.
Lucas.
Lucas.
Lucas.
You're gonna get the
f*ck in the house
and you're gonna stop
being such a p*ssy.
Or I'll f*cking cut you up.
[Lucas] Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Trust me bud, I
ain't pissing about.
Hey, I don't want
no trouble, man.
Then f*cking get
in there you melt.
Man, f*ck this guy, Myles,
you're getting in there first.
(van engine revving)
(car door thudding)
(dramatic music)
Myles.
(car door thudding)
(dramatic music)
Wait guys, guys, guys,
how are we gonna get in?
It shouldn't be too difficult.
Check under these plan pots.
A lot of the old residents here
keep a spare key
under a plant pot.
Huh, nice one.
Shh.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
(dramatic music)
(door hinge creaking)
(footsteps tapping)
Get in there you melt.
(dramatic music)
Look, there's nothing here.
Let's just go.
Let's try a different house.
What's wrong with
this house, huh?
Yeah, there's, there's,
there's lots of
jewellery over here.
Man, that stuff's sh*t.
(dramatic music)
It's gotta be worth something.
(dramatic music)
Yeah, we can sell it.
Put a bag, fam.
I didn't bring a bag.
You didn't bring a bag?
f*ck sake!
You didn't tell me I
needed to bring a bag.
- Shh.
- Shh.
I've got a hat.
Put it in that.
(Elliot speaking indistinctly)
(dramatic music)
Look at this grimey
picture, man.
Oh, that's dirty.
Put that down.
(dramatic music)
I know this is the house
of your little bum chum.
What?
(dramatic music)
(Lucas speaking indistinctly)
Myles, leave that alone.
(dramatic music)
[Arthur] Hello.
(dramatic music)
Is there someone there?
(dramatic music)
Hey, Myles-
Who are you?
(Arthur screaming)
Myles, leave him alone!
Yeah! Go on!
(Arthur groaning)
Myles stop.
Leave him alone, Myles.
(speaking indistinctly)
[George] Myles, stop, stop it.
Shut up, George!
(dramatic music)
Leave him alone, man!
(Elliot speaking indistinctly)
(dramatic music)
- Myles, that's enough.
- Leave him alone.
Just leave him.
(dramatic music)
(stick thudding)
(dramatic music)
George, come on, leave him be.
(dramatic music)
(door thudding)
Where have you been?
You broke your curfew.
I've had your supervisor
Steve on the phone!
He told me that you walked out!
Where have you been!?
What's going on!?
What do you care, mum, hmm?
And what is that
supposed to mean?
Would you look at me?
Lucas, would you look at me!
Please, just talk to me.
Talk?
You want me to talk?
Yes, I want you to talk.
I've been trying to
talk to you, mum!
You never listen!
That's not true.
Isn't it?
Lucas, I didn't
raise you this way.
Raise me?
You don't even notice me.
What are you talking about?
Of course I notice you.
I've given you
everything. Everything-
It's not about what
you've given me!
What more could
you possibly want!?
I've given up everything for
you, including your father.
Really?
What about Dennis?
Did you give him up?
Did you give up all the other
men you let walk in here?
Is that what this is about?
13 men, mum, 13.
You have no idea what
it's like to be lonely,
as a single parent.
No idea!
But you choose them over me.
Do I not matter to you?
Of course you
matter to me, Lucas!
Of course you do.
I could blend into this wall
and no one would notice.
That's the truth.
Lucas, I didn't know
that you felt this way.
What's happened?
Lucas.
What's happened?
Lucas.
I f*cked up, mum.
I f*cked up.
(Lucas crying)
What, what have you done?
It wasn't fault.
What?
(Lucas crying)
Talk to me, what you mean
it wasn't your fault?
(Lucas speaking indistinctly)
Tell me, tell me everything.
So let me get this straight.
He came home and told you
they'd robbed
someone's house, hmm?
He didn't rob the house,
those mates of his did.
But he was there, correct?
Yes, but they forced him to
do it, it wasn't his fault.
Lucas, is that true?
Yeah. I didn't, I
didn't wanna do it.
You'll need to write a
statement and sign it.
I can't.
What?
Lucas, you need to.
(cellphone beeping)
Important message?
Are we gonna have the same
problem we had before, young man.
No.
You lucky they haven't taken
your phone and laptop away.
Wait, they can do that?
Well, if he doesn't
comply we can, yes.
It's evidence.
Particularly if this was
determined to be premeditated.
Look, I didn't do anything.
I didn't take anything.
Lucas, you were there,
you were an accomplice.
The sensible thing
would be to just
tell us who else was with you.
Give us your version of events.
I can't do that.
For Christ sake, Lucas.
Mum, you don't understand.
I don't want to understand!
I want my son to do the
right thing for once!
It's not about that!
These are my mates, I
can't do that to them!
True mates wouldn't put
you in this situation.
Not if they truly
cared about you.
I'm not a snitch.
Lucas, listen to me,
doing the right thing,
it's not always easy.
But when you know deep down
what the right thing is,
the right decision,
you need to find the
courage to make it.
There'll be no community
service this time,
he'll go straight to a
young offender centre,
if he doesn't start talking.
All right.
Wait!
(gentle music)
I'll tell you everything.
(gentle music)
(heart machine beeping)
(gentle music)
How's he doing?
I am afraid it's
too soon to tell.
(heart machine beeping)
Is he gonna be able to go home?
Not today, I'm sorry.
(heart machine beeping)
(gentle music)
(heart machine beeping)
Is it okay if I come in?
(heart machine beeping)
How's he doing?
Not good.
They don't think he'll
be able to go home.
What?
Why?
His dementia's got too bad.
I dunno why, but whoever
broke in last night,
they hit him.
And now he doesn't
even know who I am.
He doesn't remember anything.
(heart machine beeping)
(gentle music)
You should stay, say hello.
(gentle music)
(heart machine beeping)
(gentle music)
I can't.
Why not?
Amy, there's something
I have to tell you.
What?
(gentle music)
Last night my friends,
they thought it
would be a fun idea
to break into a couple houses.
I didn't know it was gonna be
Arthur's until I got there.
(gentle music)
No.
No, what?
I'm so sorry, okay.
I didn't mean for
him to get hurt.
He could have died!
I didn't know they
were gonna attack him.
That was never part
of the plan, I swear!
I made sure he was safe.
And you think that
makes it okay?
Amy, please just listen to me.
As soon as I got
there, I told them-
(gentle music)
I want you to leave,
now.
(gentle music)
(birds chirping)
Well, well, well,
well you're back.
Here was me hoping I wouldn't
have to see you again.
Can't get rid of me, can you?
I tell you what,
you've had a result,
'cause normally when you
f*ck up like you did,
they don't wanna let you
back on this programme.
Never they give people
a second chance.
They must think you're
something special.
I am something special.
[Steve] Specially
put on this earth
to make my life miserable.
(both laughing)
[Lucas] So what are
we doing today then?
Well, quite a few
new deliveries.
So I could actually do
a extra pair of hands.
Yeah, I know you're getting old.
I am getting old, you're right.
It's people like you
are making me old.
Steve.
Yeah.
Could you do me a
favour after shift?
Depends what it is.
It's a long story.
But I need to see
Arthur Miller again.
Is he in a home now?
Yeah, he's gone.
Yeah, I heard that.
Such a shame, you know,
I've seen him play.
What?
I saw him play.
He played centre half
when I was a kid.
It's terrible, you know,
the amount of pro footballers
now they've got dementia.
Absolutely, it's just
a shame, you know.
All right, I suppose
we better do some work.
(van engine revving)
[Lucas] I thought he was
having me on about that.
[Steve] No, no, no,
professional footballer.
(people speaking indistinctly)
I haven't seen him
since the early '70s.
[Lucas] What, '78?
[Steve] Earlier
than that, I think.
I was still in school.
(gentle music)
(Amy speaking indistinctly)
Is she your granddaughter?
Hmm?
Yeah, I am.
You're very pretty.
Oh, thanks.
Do you have any grandchildren?
Yes, I have a grandson, Dominic.
Oh, does he come to visit?
Not very often.
Not as often as I would like.
Sorry about that.
Mr. Miller
Lucas.
I just wanted to see how he was.
He won't remember you.
Do you sing?
Sorry?
Granddad, granny was the singer.
Sing.
Granddad, calm down.
Lucas, you should leave.
Sing boy.
I don't know what you mean.
Yes, you do.
Lucas, what are you doing here?
I don't want you
anywhere near him.
We trusted you and
you broke that.
Is he not gonna sing?
Pops, he's not a singer!
Amy, listen, I know I
made mistakes, okay.
I messed up, I get
that, many times!
But I can't go back
and change anything.
If I could, I would, believe me,
but I can't.
I remember something that
your granddad once told me.
He said, "It's not a necessity
to change who you are,
"but there's always
room for improvement."
And that's what I'm doing.
I'm improving myself.
My goal isn't to be
better than anyone else
it's to be better
than who I used to be.
You have every right
to be angry at me.
What I did was terrible, okay.
(Amy crying)
And you think you
could just walk in here
and act like
everything is changed?
I've been working really hard.
You were an arsewhole.
I was, I was.
And I admit that.
I'm really sorry, okay?
You should go talk to him.
(gentle music)
He doesn't remember anything?
Nothing.
(gentle music)
[Lucas] Hey.
What's your name?
(gentle music)
Lucas.
Ah, you seem like a good boy.
I bet you are a good boy.
(gentle music)
You know music?
Have a good bit of music, me.
(gentle music)
Yeah, I know someone
who loved country music.
Really?
Yeah.
And this boy used to
deliver food to him.
His name was Arthur.
(gentle music)
What else?
Tell me more, boy.
(gentle music)
He used to play football
when he was younger.
And his wife was
a country singer.
She died of cancer.
(gentle music)
What was her name?
Eileen.
(gentle music)
They met at holiday camp.
She was one of
the singers there.
(gentle music)
[Arthur] Hey, Lucas?
Yes, Mr. Miller.
You're a good boy, you are.
I know you've got a
good heart in you.
(gentle music)
I should get going.
(gentle music)
Will you come back?
I'd like to hear the
rest of the story.
It is truly a great story.
(gentle music)
Yeah, yeah, I'll come back
and tell you the rest.
I'll hold you to that.
(gentle music)
Just remember this, remember us.
(gentle music)
Who's that?
That was Lucas Thompson.
You know him.
Remember?
(gentle music)
When I was only 17
My head was full
of brilliant dreams
My heart would call
and I would gladly go
(upbeat music)
At 21 the world was mine
And I was yours
and you're divine
And nothing else
would matter to us so
(upbeat music)
I don't believe in destiny
I don't believe in love
I don't believe that
anything will ever be enough
Man you should have seen
us on the way to Venus
Walking on the Milky Way
It was quite a day hey, hey
Hey, hey
Walking on the big stuff,
acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey, hey
Hey, hey
As time goes by, reality
Destroys your
hope and dignity
There's nothing left
but shadows on the wall
(upbeat music)
But just remember
who you are
And where you've been
you've come so far
And never ever let
them see you fall
(upbeat music)
I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in truth
I don't believe that anything
can recreate your youth
Man you should have seen
us on the way to Venus
Walking on the Milky Way
It was quite a day hey, hey
Hey, hey
Walking on the big stuff
acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey, hey
Hey, hey
(upbeat music)
Walking on the Milky Way
Hey, hey
Oh man you should have
seen us on the way to Venus
Walking on the Milky Way
It was quite a day hey, hey
Hey, hey
(upbeat music)
Walking on the big stuff
acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey, hey
Hey, hey
(upbeat music)
Oh man you should have
seen us on the way to Venus
Walking on the Milky Way
It was quite a day hey, hey
Hey, hey
(upbeat music)
(singer vocalising)
Hey, hey
[Director] Scene 32,
slate one, take one.
(slate thudding)
(upbeat music)
(singer vocalising)
(gentle upbeat music)
Hey, hey, hey
(gentle upbeat music)
