1. This programme contains
strong language and adult humour.
Copy !req
2. How long since your interview?
182 days.
Copy !req
3. And you still haven't heard?
The suspense is killing me.
Copy !req
4. Peter, we're letting you go.
Copy !req
5. Tell me what is wrong.
I lost my job.
Copy !req
6. I need to do something.
Copy !req
7. No-one's fucked you in years.
Copy !req
8. A 15-year-old boy
has accused me of groping him.
Copy !req
9. It's your father, John.
What does he want?
Copy !req
10. If it's because I cut off
the mortgage repayments...
Copy !req
11. Absolutely not.
Copy !req
12. Elliot has not been here
for a long time, John.
Copy !req
13. Maybe don't get his hopes up.
You can talk.
Copy !req
14. You left your family, too.
Copy !req
15. He's just like his mum.
All he wants
Copy !req
16. is to fall into the arms
of a man who'll tell him
Copy !req
17. everything's going to be all right.
Copy !req
18. Heard you got some action
last night.
Copy !req
19. Sorry?
Copy !req
20. Date.
Copy !req
21. You went on a date. Oh!
Copy !req
22. Yes. A little one.
Copy !req
23. Good for you.
Copy !req
24. Or, get in!
Copy !req
25. As a man on Sunday Brunch
would say.
Copy !req
26. Get in. Yes.
Copy !req
27. I can't remember the last time
we went on a date night. Mm.
Copy !req
28. It was sometime between Baby Shark
and the proroguing of Parliament,
Copy !req
29. which would probably spice things
up a bit, eh?
Copy !req
30. Could you pass the coffee,
please? Of course.
Copy !req
31. I actually, um...
Copy !req
32. .. went to the pharmacy yesterday,
Copy !req
33. to buy some Viagra.
Copy !req
34. And the chemist said to me,
Copy !req
35. "Did you know, for £20, you
can get it over the counter?"
Copy !req
36. I said, "That is a bold claim!
Copy !req
37. "Here's £50, strap
a feather duster to it,
Copy !req
38. "I'll do the tops of your shelves."
Copy !req
39. Do the tops of your shelves!
Ho-ho! I'm wasted here!
Copy !req
40. I'm wasted here.
Copy !req
41. He knows. No, he doesn't.
Copy !req
42. And John? He's not talking to me.
Copy !req
43. Katy, it was nothing.
Copy !req
44. It was nothing.
Let's not talk about it, then.
Copy !req
45. But I think we need to.
No, we don't. It didn't happen.
Copy !req
46. It's Google+, it's Madonna
falling over at the Brits.
Copy !req
47. I... I just want to say
how sorry I am.
Copy !req
48. I have absolutely no idea
what you are talking about,
Copy !req
49. and this conversation is finished.
Copy !req
50. Today's my case hearing at school,
Copy !req
51. so I really need to save all my
regret and self-loathing for that.
Copy !req
52. Yes.
Copy !req
53. Excuse me.
Copy !req
54. You do not have to say anything.
Copy !req
55. I'm just going to sit right here.
Copy !req
56. I will not pretend
it did not happen.
Copy !req
57. You can't. I saw it. Yes.
Copy !req
58. I can't forget it. It's in there.
Copy !req
59. Like your nine times table. Yeah.
Copy !req
60. Nine times six?
Copy !req
61. See? The thing you think
is important, it goes.
Copy !req
62. It fades. 54.
Copy !req
63. But you had to think about it.
Copy !req
64. There's a trick with the
nine times table.
Copy !req
65. Both numbers always add up to nine.
Copy !req
66. 36, 45, 54.
Copy !req
67. It's a cheat.
I did not know that.
Copy !req
68. You never forget a cheat.
Copy !req
69. It was a mistake, John.
Copy !req
70. Make them with your family,
Copy !req
71. not mine.
Copy !req
72. I'm so sorry.
Copy !req
73. I'm too young for this.
Copy !req
74. John?
Copy !req
75. Hey.
Copy !req
76. Hey! What the hell do you think
you're doing? You have school.
Copy !req
77. Put your uniform on. I'm going to
stay with my dad for a few days.
Copy !req
78. I didn't know about this.
Copy !req
79. Did you know about this?
I didn't know about this.
Copy !req
80. Please go to school, John.
Listen, mate.
Copy !req
81. We're all trying really hard
to keep this ship afloat, OK?
Copy !req
82. I need you to cooperate.
Copy !req
83. So drop the attitude,
do what your mum says.
Copy !req
84. Monica, I am done waiting.
Khalas, no more!
Copy !req
85. Let's get busy now, huh?
Busy-whizzy.
Copy !req
86. Sami, you're doing so well,
Copy !req
87. but I told you,
the asylum process is a queue.
Copy !req
88. You know, this queue,
Copy !req
89. it feels a lot like a fucking
circle. I want an answer now.
Copy !req
90. Please don't use language like that.
Copy !req
91. Apology accepted.
No hard feelings.
Copy !req
92. What is the name of the man
who did my interview?
Copy !req
93. I can go see him in Croydon.
No, it doesn't work like that.
Copy !req
94. Well, then, tell me
how it works, Monica!
Copy !req
95. Well, he doesn't handle it any more.
Copy !req
96. Your case has very likely
been passed down the chain.
Copy !req
97. Somebody else in Croydon?
Well, probably Bootle.
Copy !req
98. Bootle? It's near Liverpool.
Copy !req
99. Then maybe I should
tootle off to Bootle.
Copy !req
100. Sami, I really don't think...
Copy !req
101. No, you really don't, do you?
Copy !req
102. What's wrong?
Copy !req
103. Just spoke to my lawyer.
No, there's something else.
Copy !req
104. Did you bring sexy back?
Copy !req
105. Who?
Copy !req
106. I'll take the identity
of this woman to my grave.
Copy !req
107. Katy!
Copy !req
108. Oh, Sami.
Copy !req
109. I know.
Copy !req
110. This is Diana and Dodi
all over again.
Copy !req
111. What are you going to do?
If I'm going to stay here...
Copy !req
112. ..I have to leave them.
Copy !req
113. Leave to remain?
Copy !req
114. Leave to remain.
Copy !req
115. Where is Bootle?
Copy !req
116. It's a long way away. Why?
Copy !req
117. My fate lies in Bootle.
Well, that's a first.
Copy !req
118. How much is a train ticket?
I need to get there and back again.
Copy !req
119. Be about... 200 quid.
Copy !req
120. For a train? I know.
Copy !req
121. For 200 quid, I want a
reach-around from Chuggington
Copy !req
122. while the Fat Controller slow dances
for me in a man-nappy.
Copy !req
123. I can't afford it.
You don't have to.
Copy !req
124. I'll text you the booking reference.
Copy !req
125. I... I don't know what to say.
Copy !req
126. Your fate lies in Bootle?
My fate lies in Bootle.
Copy !req
127. Well, OK, then.
Copy !req
128. I cannot repay you.
Copy !req
129. Here's how you repay me.
Copy !req
130. If you really leave, say goodbye.
Copy !req
131. OK.
Copy !req
132. Some people hate goodbyes. I don't.
Copy !req
133. It's the people you don't
get to say goodbye to...
Copy !req
134. ..you never see again.
Copy !req
135. Again, please...
Copy !req
136. How would you describe that?
Well... dismissive.
Copy !req
137. "This is finished, get to class."
Copy !req
138. And the boy alleges it was more...?
Copy !req
139. Something... bolder,
Copy !req
140. more irreverent,
maybe a little bit cheeky.
Copy !req
141. This is a misconduct hearing,
not a wine tasting.
Copy !req
142. Yes, yes, I know. Er,
something a bit more...
Copy !req
143. And I suppose the question
we need to ask ourselves
Copy !req
144. about something like that is,
Copy !req
145. when does that stop being,
you know, um...
Copy !req
146. .. end-of-the-pier,
"Oo-er, that's a handful,"
Copy !req
147. Carry On... Tits sort of thing,
Copy !req
148. and become something
a bit more... sinister?
Copy !req
149. Well, it's inappropriate
to do that to a pupil.
Copy !req
150. I didn't do that to a pupil.
Copy !req
151. It's inappropriate to do that
to anyone. Well, quite.
Copy !req
152. I didn't do that to a pupil.
Copy !req
153. But I do think context is important.
Copy !req
154. I mean, there are pats on the bum
and there are pats on the bum.
Copy !req
155. For instance, Simon,
Copy !req
156. you did it to me at the
Christmas concert last year.
Copy !req
157. And I understood that it was
a perfectly innocent act
Copy !req
158. in an empty room
without any witnesses
Copy !req
159. that was entirely devoid of
any sexual motive whatsoever.
Copy !req
160. Y... yes.
Copy !req
161. Maybe we should turn to
the language you used.
Copy !req
162. Enough. Sorry?
Copy !req
163. Enough. We do actually
have a lot to...
Copy !req
164. No, I've spent weeks
thinking about this. Weeks.
Copy !req
165. Hours and hours and hours about
what to say, how to defend it.
Copy !req
166. I could deny any of this happened,
Copy !req
167. that would be the
presidential response.
Copy !req
168. Or I could apologise for nothing,
Copy !req
169. that would be the
prime ministerial one.
Copy !req
170. But I'm not them. I'm me.
Copy !req
171. And I think...
Copy !req
172. ..you're right to
ask these questions.
Copy !req
173. I believe in the system.
Copy !req
174. I know this isn't a witch-hunt.
Copy !req
175. Does it feel like a witch-hunt?
Copy !req
176. Well, let's just say, a month ago,
Copy !req
177. I kept the peace in that corridor.
Copy !req
178. And someone's told you
my olive branch
Copy !req
179. was a fucking broomstick.
Copy !req
180. But I think I'll just say...
Copy !req
181. .. sorry.
Copy !req
182. Not for what didn't happen,
Copy !req
183. but for what happened,
from the bottom of my heart.
Copy !req
184. What I said and did,
it came from the right place
Copy !req
185. and ended in the wrong one.
Copy !req
186. Shall we move on to the letters?
What letters?
Copy !req
187. This is the first
we've heard of them.
Copy !req
188. Letters didn't form part
of the allegation.
Copy !req
189. The letters between
yourself and Jason.
Copy !req
190. There were no letters.
Copy !req
191. These.
Copy !req
192. "My darling, you are my greatest
adventure and I almost missed it."
Copy !req
193. Let me look at that, please.
Copy !req
194. That's Mr Incredible.
Copy !req
195. Sorry? "You are my greatest
adventure and I almost missed it."
Copy !req
196. Mr Incredible said that.
Copy !req
197. Is Mr Incredible your nickname
for Jason?
Copy !req
198. Are you saying the boy's
allegations lack credibility?
Copy !req
199. It's a line from the film
The Incredibles.
Copy !req
200. It's a cartoon.
Copy !req
201. Mr Incredible says that to his wife.
Copy !req
202. My son's watched that film
about a thousand times,
Copy !req
203. sounds like Jason wasn't
that far behind him.
Copy !req
204. I think we should compare
handwriting, don't you?
Copy !req
205. Let me give you an example of mine.
Copy !req
206. I'll be outside.
Copy !req
207. Hello, can I ask you one
question? Do you...? No.
Copy !req
208. Please, please...
Copy !req
209. Excuse me, sir?
Excuse me. Do you...?
Copy !req
210. Please.
Copy !req
211. Please, miss. Hello.
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Copy !req
212. Do you work here?
Yeah, what do you want?
Copy !req
213. I just want to talk to
somebody who works here.
Copy !req
214. You need to fix an appointment.
No, no, no, now.
Copy !req
215. I have travelled a very long way.
Look, I don't know who you are,
Copy !req
216. but we aren't actually allowed
to discuss cases... Please, please!
Copy !req
217. No. Let me buy you a pint.
I said no.
Copy !req
218. Wasabi peas?
Copy !req
219. Eh?
Copy !req
220. The pub shall be beautiful.
It shall serve wasabi peas.
Copy !req
221. What is wrong with this country?
They're from Japan.
Copy !req
222. You took the worst thing from Japan,
Copy !req
223. and put it in my mouth!
Copy !req
224. It's like Marmite.
Copy !req
225. You like Marmite? No.
Copy !req
226. You? It's complicated.
Copy !req
227. I've been here a long time.
Copy !req
228. Six months. Yes.
Copy !req
229. I know, there is a queue.
Copy !req
230. But I was... I was hoping you could
tell me how long this queue is.
Copy !req
231. About 14,000.
Copy !req
232. 14,000? Yeah.
Copy !req
233. I see.
Copy !req
234. We're trying to clear it, but,
you know, it takes time.
Copy !req
235. I've only been here a few months.
Me, too.
Copy !req
236. You are making decisions?
Copy !req
237. I'm a decision-maker. We all are.
Copy !req
238. What are your qualifications
to do this?
Copy !req
239. What was your... your previous job?
Copy !req
240. I worked in Carphone Warehouse.
Copy !req
241. Look, I know you cannot...
Copy !req
242. .. discuss my case.
Copy !req
243. I don't know your case.
Copy !req
244. Please just be honest with me.
Copy !req
245. How much time could this take?
Copy !req
246. Don't worry.
Copy !req
247. Don't worry. I'm from Syria.
Copy !req
248. We are good with bad news.
Copy !req
249. We have to meet these key
performance indicators.
Copy !req
250. And new cases are better
for hitting targets.
Copy !req
251. So if your case extends beyond
six months, it becomes less...
Copy !req
252. .. compelling to us.
Copy !req
253. Less compelling.
Copy !req
254. What is the longest case
you've dealt with?
Copy !req
255. Six years.
Copy !req
256. I'm sorry. It's OK.
Copy !req
257. It's been a long journey.
Copy !req
258. I thought I could see land, but...
Copy !req
259. ..I'm still here.
Copy !req
260. All at sea.
Copy !req
261. How'd it go?
Copy !req
262. Thought I'd try something
light-hearted,
Copy !req
263. but I'm having quite serious second
thoughts, to be honest.
Copy !req
264. I'm so sorry. What for? Everything.
You don't have to be sorry.
Copy !req
265. You didn't do anything.
Copy !req
266. Will you do something for me? What?
Copy !req
267. Will you bring my boy home?
Copy !req
268. Hello? Sami, it's me. Hi.
Copy !req
269. Katy wants me to get John from
Elliot's house, and I may need you.
Copy !req
270. Where are you? I'm in Liverpool.
What are you doing in Liverpool?
Copy !req
271. Beatles tour. Yeah?
Well, buy a ticket to ride
and get back, day-tripper!
Copy !req
272. It's time to come together and help.
Don't let me down.
Copy !req
273. That was very clever. What? You
just said all those Beatles songs.
Copy !req
274. What Beatles songs? Getting
train now. See you at Euston.
Copy !req
275. Where's Elliot? We're here for...
You brought the gear? What?
Copy !req
276. Yes, we brought the gear.
Copy !req
277. Hello. Where is it? We do not have
your gear. Yeah, hop it, Zammo.
Copy !req
278. Want a drink? Thought you'd
given up. Yep, so did I.
Copy !req
279. Turns out it's really,
Copy !req
280. really hard so, you know,
12 steps forwards, one steps backs.
Copy !req
281. Where's John? He's around.
Copy !req
282. Do you really think
this is an appropriate
Copy !req
283. environment for a 13-year-old boy?
Copy !req
284. Well, this isn't an appropriate
environment for, you know,
Copy !req
285. a 45-year-old man.
Copy !req
286. Do you know that
I just saw somebody snorting
Copy !req
287. ketamine off a photograph of my nan?
Copy !req
288. I'm going to need counselling!
I mean...
Copy !req
289. You know, it demeans us all.
Copy !req
290. You have no idea how to look
after him! He's just...
Copy !req
291. I was always going to have
this party. He just... Hello.
Copy !req
292. He just knocked on the door
and, you know, I mean,
Copy !req
293. he's welcome to be here, but I'm
not just going to drop everything,
Copy !req
294. so stop mollycoddling him!
Right, I'm going to look for him.
Copy !req
295. Stay here. Stop mollycoddling!
Copy !req
296. The kid's got more father figures
than Luke fucking Skywalker!
Copy !req
297. And even Darth Vader!
Copy !req
298. The dead farmer from the first one,
and Obe 1 Habibi.
Copy !req
299. Olive?
Copy !req
300. You're fucking huge, aren't you?
Copy !req
301. But surprisingly, for your size,
strangely unintimidating,
Copy !req
302. like a whale.
Copy !req
303. Or Canada.
Copy !req
304. Everything just bounces off you,
does it?
Copy !req
305. I suppose it has to, doesn't it?
Copy !req
306. Cos, you know,
if you were to lose your temper...
Copy !req
307. ..you'd get deported.
Copy !req
308. You all right, mate? You OK? No,
it's OK. Didn't you see him here?
Copy !req
309. Come one. Let's go.
Copy !req
310. Come on!
Copy !req
311. No, it's all right,
it's all right, come on.
Copy !req
312. Is he all right? He's drunk.
Copy !req
313. My boy! What is he, 14? He's 13.
Copy !req
314. I was drinking my father under
the table when I was 13. Let's go.
Copy !req
315. I don't want to hear from you again.
Except you're in surge prices, eh?
Copy !req
316. Fuck off! No, no, no, no, no!
Come on. Come on.
Copy !req
317. There's a good place in Canada.
Copy !req
318. I can see why Katy fell for you.
Copy !req
319. What? Yeah, John told me.
Told you what? Ignore him. Let's go.
Copy !req
320. Please don't do this!
Copy !req
321. What did he mean?
Copy !req
322. I'm so sorry.
Copy !req
323. What did he mean, Sami?
Copy !req
324. Thank you.
Copy !req
325. Thank you for everything.
Time to go.
Copy !req
326. What did he mean?
Copy !req
327. Sami? Yeah, it's me. I have to get
out of here! What time is it?
Copy !req
328. It is midnight.
I have run away from the party.
Copy !req
329. Believe me, my carriage has
turned into a fucking pumpkin!
Copy !req
330. I don't understand. What's happened?
What have you done?
Copy !req
331. I've ruined everything!
I have to get out of the UK!
Copy !req
332. Please, let me come to Berlin!
Tell them you want me to join you!
Copy !req
333. That is all you have to do. Sami,
let's talk about this tomorrow.
Copy !req
334. I need time to...
No, I have run out of time!
Copy !req
335. There is no more time to give!
It has to be now! Don't shout at me!
Copy !req
336. Please, tell them!
Copy !req
337. George?
Copy !req
338. Yasmine, I am trying to
make things better!
Copy !req
339. Why can't you fucking
understand that?
Copy !req
340. George...
Copy !req
