Copy !req
11. but, unfortunately,
I couldn't make out what you had said there.

Copy !req
27. conveying a simple message to strangers?

I'm trying to tell you but you'll not listen.
Copy !req
29. Mr Blake, if you continue
to speak to us like that
Copy !req
30. that's not gonna be very helpful
for your assessment.
Copy !req
31. If you could just answer
the question, please.
Copy !req
32. - Yes.
- Okay.
Copy !req
33. Do you ever experience any loss of control

get to the point.
Copy !req
36. Can you complete a simple
task of setting an alarm clock?
Copy !req
37. Oh, Jesus. Yes.
Copy !req

Copy !req
40. appointed by the
Department of Work and Pensions
Copy !req
41. to carry out assessments for
Employment and Support Allowance.
Copy !req
42. But there was a bloke out in the,
er, in the waiting room,
Copy !req
43. he says that you work
for an American company.
Copy !req
44. Our company's been
appointed by the Government.
Copy !req

Copy !req
46. I'm a health care professional.
Copy !req
47. Listen, I've had a major heart attack.
Copy !req
48. I nearly fell off the scaffolding.
Copy !req
49. I wanna get back to work, too.
Copy !req
50. Now, please, can we talk about me heart?
Copy !req
51. Forget about me arse, that works a dream.
Copy !req
52. Piper, you lazy bastard.
Copy !req

Copy !req
57. Did you enjoy your chicken tikka masala?
Copy !req
58. - How did you know that?
- Cos I can bloody smell it.
Copy !req
59. How many times have I told you about
leaving rubbish lying about the place,
Copy !req
60. stinking it up?
Copy !req
61. - Can I dump it later? I'm running late.
- No. Now!
Copy !req
62. Dan...
Copy !req
63. Erm, I've got a big favour to ask
Copy !req
64. I'm expecting a package. Really important.
Copy !req
65. They've changed my hours, so I won't be in.
Copy !req
66. Can you keep an eye out for the postman?
Copy !req
67. If you swear nae more rubbish.
Copy !req
68. - Catch!
- Don't you fucking dare.
Copy !req
69. - I'll kick your arse into next week.
- Okay.
Copy !req
70. Daft as a bloody brush.
Copy !req
71. When can I go back to work?
Copy !req
72. Ah, not yet, that's for certain.
Copy !req
73. You're making progress.
Copy !req
74. I think if we just
continue you on the same dosage.
Copy !req
75. And, yeah, rehab exercise.
Copy !req
76. We'll see if we can
the pumping capacity to increase.
Copy !req
77. - Yeah.
- And it might.
Copy !req
78. But if not, we might need to look
at fitting you with a defibrillator.
Copy !req
79. Keep up with the exercise, keep moving.
That's gonna build you up.
Copy !req
80. But you need to be rested as well.
Copy !req
81. Well, I'm a bit of a night owl, you know.
Copy !req
82. I got into the habit
when I was looking after the missus
Copy !req
83. before she passed away.
Copy !req
84. How you doing, son? How you doing?
Copy !req
85. - All right.

I'll be fine in a month or two.
Copy !req
88. Ah, well, be leaving that Viagra alone.
Copy !req
89. I'll keep it for you, shall I?
Copy !req
90. Aye, I probably need it more than you.

- China.
Copy !req
145. Oh. Give it here.
Copy !req
146. D'you know how long
I've been on this phone?
Copy !req
147. One hour, forty-eight minutes.
Copy !req
148. Jesus Christ, that's longer than
a football match. It'll cost a fortune.
Copy !req
149. I'm sorry, sir, but it's been very busy.
Copy !req
150. There must be some mistake.
Copy !req
151. I've got a serious heart condition.
Copy !req
152. I'm in rehab and the doctor's
told us I cannae go back to work.
Copy !req
153. Now, I was getting the benefits
fine until that bloody assessment.
Copy !req
154. I see you've only
scored twelve points, er,
Copy !req
155. and you need 15 to obtain benefits.
Copy !req
156. Oh, points, that's your game?
Copy !req
157. I'm sorry, sir,
but according to our health, er,
Copy !req
158. health care professional,
Copy !req
159. you've been deemed fit for work.
Copy !req
160. So she knows better than my doctor,
Copy !req
161. a consultant surgeon and a physio team?
Copy !req
162. Well, I wanna appeal.
Copy !req
163. Well, that's fine, but you'll have to first
request a mandatory reconsideration.
Copy !req
164. What the bloody hell does that mean?
Copy !req
165. It means the decision
maker will reconsider it
Copy !req
166. and if he comes to the same
decision, you can then appeal.
Copy !req
167. Right, well put us down for that, then.
Copy !req
168. Okay, sir, but you must wait
Copy !req
169. to get a call from the decision maker.
Copy !req
170. Why?
Copy !req
171. To tell you what the decision is.
Copy !req
172. But that's already been decided.
Copy !req
173. It is, but you're supposed to get the call,
Copy !req
174. before the letter.
Copy !req
175. Well, is he gonna change his mind?
Copy !req
176. No, the call's just to discuss the decision.
Copy !req
177. Well, I know what the decision is,
I've got the letter here in front of us.
Copy !req
178. D'you want us to read it to you?
Copy !req
179. But he should have called you first.
Copy !req
180. But he didn't.
Copy !req
181. But he should have.
Copy !req
182. Well unless we've got a time machine,
we're pretty much knackered,
Copy !req
183. divvent you agree?
Copy !req
184. Er, he has to call you first, sir.
Copy !req
185. Listen,
Copy !req
186. can you not just put him on now,
so I don't have to waste any more time?
Copy !req
187. I can't do that, sir.
Copy !req
188. Where is he?
Copy !req
189. He'll give you a call back when he, er,
Copy !req
190. - he gets the chance.
- When?
Copy !req
191. I don't know, sir.
Copy !req
192. This is ridiculous, man.
Copy !req
193. On the one hand, Jobseeker's Allowance,
Copy !req
194. only for those able and ready to work.
Copy !req
195. But if you're ill, you have to apply
for Employment and Support,
Copy !req
196. get an assessment carried out.
Copy !req
197. Well, I've done that
but they've knocked us back.
Copy !req
198. Right, well if you've been
deemed fit for work,
Copy !req
199. your only option is Jobseeker's Allowance.
Copy !req
200. Or proceed with the appeal on
Employment and Support.
Copy !req
201. Well, can you give me a form for...
Copy !req
202. You know, erm, Jobseeker's Allowance
Copy !req
203. and then an appeal form
Employment and Support?
Copy !req
204. You have to apply online, sir.
Copy !req
205. I cannot do that.
Copy !req
206. Well that's how it is, sir.
Or you can phone the helpline.
Copy !req
207. Listen, you know,
you give me a plot of land,
Copy !req
208. I can build you a house.
Copy !req
209. But I've never been
anywhere near a computer.
Copy !req
210. D'you know what, we're digital by default.
Copy !req
211. Oh, here we gan.
Copy !req
212. I hear this all the time on the phone,
"I'm digital by default."
Copy !req
213. Well I'm pencil by default.
Copy !req
214. Look, I mean, what happens
if you just cannae do it?
Copy !req
215. There's a special number
if you've been diagnosed as dyslexic.
Copy !req
216. Right, well can you give us that?
Cos with computers I'm dyslexic.
Copy !req
217. You'll find it online, sir.
I must ask you to leave now,
Copy !req
218. if you've got no appointment.
Copy !req
219. Right, can I help you?
Copy !req
220. Yeah, I'm here to see about
changing my work coach.
Copy !req
221. Thomas Armstrong, please.
Copy !req
222. Hang on a minute, Thomas, hang on.
Copy !req
223. Erm, would you like to take a seat?
Copy !req
224. Oh, I just need a minute. I just felt...
I'm just feeling dizzy, you know.
Copy !req
225. - Come and sit down.
- Oh, cheers, thanks.
Copy !req
226. Could you move up, please, love?
Copy !req
227. Thanks, pet, thank you.
Copy !req
228. - All right. I'll just get you a glass of water.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
229. Oh, thank you, pet. Thank you.
Copy !req
230. Are you all right? You look a bit pale.
Copy !req
231. It's just so bloody confusing,
all the jargon.
Copy !req
232. I mean, there must be some mistake.
I'm just ganning round and round in circles.
Copy !req
233. I've, I've really gotta
get this sorted out.
Copy !req
234. Oh I can understand that,
but you were late.
Copy !req
235. Thomas. You sit here
and drink your water, pet.
Copy !req
236. Thank you.
Copy !req
237. So now you're gonna sanction me so, er...
Copy !req
238. - No, I'm not gonna sanction you.
- I may not get any money for a month.
Copy !req
239. I'm gonna refer you to the decision maker
and they'll make the decision
Copy !req
240. - on whether they're gonna sanction you.
- That's ridiculous...
Copy !req
241. I'm not actually making the decision,
they're gonna do that.
Copy !req
242. And then if they do decide
to sanction you,
Copy !req
243. then you will take a 40%
cut in your benefits.
Copy !req
244. I know what it is,
I don't need you to explain it to me.
Copy !req
245. - I'm more than aware...
- Well there isn't anything else
Copy !req
246. anybody can do today.
Copy !req
247. So what I'm gonna have to do is,
look, I think I'm...
Copy !req
248. I've decided to...
Are you gonna put me in for a sanction?
Copy !req
249. I have to, I have to follow the rules.
Copy !req
250. And the thing is if you're gonna,
be aggressive with me
Copy !req
251. - then I'm gonna have to ask you...
- It's not about me being aggressive.
Copy !req
252. - I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.
- I'm trying to explain to you a situation
Copy !req
253. and you don't care.
Copy !req
254. - Er, security. Security?
- I don't know why people like you do this job.
Copy !req
255. I'm referring you to the decision maker.
Copy !req
256. It's all the same thing.
I don't wanna hear your language
Copy !req
257. - I, I beg your pardon.
- Listen, I, I'm sorry, love,
Copy !req
258. - but you're gonna have to leave.
- Yeah, all right, frankly,
Copy !req
259. take your hands off me.
I'm gonna speak to the manager,
Copy !req
260. - I don't wanna speak to you.
- The fact is I'm just trying to explain...
Copy !req
261. - Sorry?
- I'm just explaining...
Copy !req
262. Well it's not you I wanna speak to...
Copy !req
263. - You can go back up there.
- Right, come and talk to me then
Copy !req
264. - if you've got something to say.
- Okay. Sorry.
Copy !req
265. All right.
Copy !req
266. I've tried to explain to the woman,
I've never been to Newcastle before.
Copy !req
267. We've just moved up here from London.
Copy !req
268. I've been here a few days,
I don't know where I'm going. Okay?
Copy !req
269. I was on the bus, it's gone the wrong way.
Copy !req
270. We've run, got off the bus,
run so that I wasn't any more late.
Copy !req
271. She just don't wanna know and now she's telling
me she's gonna refer me for a sanction.
Copy !req
272. What I want you to do is listen to me. Okay?
Copy !req
273. The lady's told you what's right.
Copy !req
274. There's rules here,
rules that we have to stick to. Okay?
Copy !req
275. - It isn't against you, but you have a duty.
- Oh, mate, listen,
Copy !req
276. - I'm not saying it's against me.
- You have a duty to be here on time.
Copy !req
277. And I'm explaining to you
why I wasn't here on time.
Copy !req
278. - D'you know what? I understand, right...
- I got lost.
Copy !req
279. But what I gather now
is the decision maker...
Copy !req
280. The decision maker's gonna be
sending you a letter through the post.
Copy !req
281. So you're gonna have to wait for that.
Copy !req
282. - And then nobody...
- Yeah, I've got... My kids
Copy !req
283. have gotta start school tomorrow.
I've got about 12 quid in my purse.
Copy !req
284. - D'you know what?
- All because you can't just calm down
Copy !req
285. - and listen to people when they talk.
- Right.
Copy !req
286. - You have to do this.
- Right, d'you know what,
Copy !req
287. - I've listened to you. You've created a scene.
- With your rules.
Copy !req
288. - I think you need to...
- I've created a scene?
Copy !req
289. - You need to leave the building.
- If I was gonna create a scene,
Copy !req
290. you'd know about it, trust me.
Copy !req
291. I'm sorry, love,
but you are gonna have to go.
Copy !req
292. This is ridiculous.
Copy !req
293. - Jesus Christ!
- What am I supposed to do?
Copy !req
294. - Who's first in this queue?
- I am.
Copy !req
295. D'you mind if this young lass signs on first?
Copy !req
296. - No, no, you carry on.
- There you go.
Copy !req
297. Now you can go back to your
desk and let her sign on
Copy !req
298. and do the job that the taxpayer
pays you for.
Copy !req
299. - This is a bloody disgrace.
- Listen, all right,
Copy !req
300. this doesn't have to involve you.
Copy !req
301. Everybody's trying to do their job here
and you're creating more of a scene again.
Copy !req
302. But, look, you're not listening to her.
Copy !req
303. She's out of the area.
She's just been a few minutes...
Copy !req
304. Can you not let her sign on?
She's got two kids with her, man.
Copy !req
305. - What's wrong with you people?
- Right, listen, this isn't your concern.
Copy !req
306. I want you to get out as well. All right?
Copy !req
307. I need you to leave.
We need to do this right. Yeah.
Copy !req
308. - All right.
- Listen, listen, listen...
Copy !req
309. - They're just gonna call the police.
- Phone the police.
Copy !req
310. Can we get some perspective in here?
Copy !req
311. You need to go or we're gonna
phone the police. All right?
Copy !req
312. Come on. Thanks very much...
Copy !req
313. Can we have a bit of perspective,
please, here, man?
Copy !req
314. - Away, don't be silly.
- Shouldn't even have this job.
Copy !req
315. - Come on. Please.
- Shouldn't even have this job.
Copy !req
316. - Come on, get out.

Copy !req
325. - Honestly. Honestly.
- He's a handful, isn't he?
Copy !req
326. I can't sit down for five minutes
without him getting in trouble, can I?
Copy !req
327. Right.
Copy !req
328. - Good, good choice.
- She loves spaghetti.
Copy !req
329. Hey, you cannae go wrong
with spaghetti on toast.
Copy !req
330. Spaghetti, spaghetti on toast, isn't it?
Copy !req
331. Where's your brother gone?
Copy !req

- Come on!
Copy !req

Copy !req

Copy !req
339. She's back.
Copy !req
340. Tell you what, if it's the last thing I do,
I'm gonna make this place a home.
Copy !req
341. You don't know how to fix a cistern, do you?
Copy !req

Copy !req
343. - Yeah, I'll have a look at that.

Copy !req
351. It's nice, it's nice.
There's plenty of space.
Copy !req
352. And, erm, yeah, it looks like they've put...
There's a nice bit of fresh carpet down.
Copy !req
353. The, the walls are all
nicely painted and that.
Copy !req
354. No, I know, Mum. Well, look, once...
Once you're feeling better and we're settled,
Copy !req
355. then you'll have to come up. You can come up
with Auntie May and stay, can't you?
Copy !req
356. Yeah, they're nice, yeah, friendly.
Friendlier than London.
Copy !req
357. Yeah.
Copy !req
358. D'you wanna have a word with Daisy?
Copy !req
359. All right, hold on. Talk to Nana.
Copy !req
360. Hello, Nan.
Copy !req
361. - Hello, Daisy. How are you?
- Good.
Copy !req
362. - Yeah? D'you like it?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
363. - Are you happy?
- Yeah, very.
Copy !req
364. I miss you, too. Bye.
Copy !req
365. Bye-bye.
Copy !req
366. Hello, Mum.
Copy !req
367. All right. That's all right.
All right, I'll speak... Yeah, I've gotta go
Copy !req
368. but I'll speak, I'll call you tomorrow.
Copy !req
369. - All right.
- All right, love you.
Copy !req
370. - Love you, too. Bye.
- Bye, bye, bye.
Copy !req
371. So what are you doing up here, Katie?
Copy !req
372. It started when we got
kicked out of the flat.
Copy !req
373. We got in a bit of trouble.
Copy !req
374. It was ridiculous.
Copy !req
375. In Dylan's room there was a leak
coming through the wall,
Copy !req
376. coming through the top of the ceiling
down the wall.
Copy !req
377. And it was making him really sick.
Weren't it, Dais?
Copy !req
378. - Remember when Dylan weren't well?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
379. We had to run all the way to the hospital.
Copy !req
380. Yeah, he was in and out the hospital.
Copy !req
381. I was talking to the landlord about it,
spoke to him.
Copy !req
382. And cos I complained, kicked us out.
Copy !req
383. What, they can just do that?
Copy !req
384. - Just throw you out?
- Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
385. So we got out of there.
Copy !req
386. We was in a homeless hostel
for about two years, waiting on a flat.
Copy !req
387. Yeah. But it was close to their school
which they loved, so...
Copy !req
388. We just had to stick it out.
But we was in one room,
Copy !req
389. the three of us were in one room.
Copy !req
390. Like eating, sleeping, all the rest of it
and Dylan was just climbing the walls.
Copy !req
391. Honestly,
like boxed in like that, so, yeah.
Copy !req
392. They eventually offered me a flat,
so the good news was it was a flat.
Copy !req
393. Bad news was it was up here.
Copy !req
394. And they couldn't give you
anywhere near your family?
Copy !req
395. No, not in London.
Copy !req
396. They're, they're moving out the likes of me.
It's just too expensive for 'em.
Copy !req
397. So how's the kids taking it?
Copy !req
398. They're brokenhearted about leaving school.
Copy !req
399. Especially Daisy. She's furious with me.
Copy !req
400. Having to leave her friends and her nan.
Copy !req
401. I mean there was nothing I could do about it.
I couldn't have Dylan boxed in like that.
Copy !req
402. - Ah, she'll make friends soon enough.
- That's what I've told her.
Copy !req
403. And I've got a plan.
Copy !req
404. We got a little garden now and they've
each got a room of their own.
Copy !req
405. I'm gonna get a part-time job
and then I'm gonna go back to me books.
Copy !req
406. - Oh, you at college?
- Open University.
Copy !req
407. Yeah, I mucked up a little bit at school
so it's like a second chance.
Copy !req
408. But that all fell apart a little bit when
we was at the hostel,
Copy !req
409. but I'm not gonna give up.
Copy !req
410. Can't, can I?
Copy !req
411. Good on you, lass.
Copy !req
412. It's bloody freezing in here.
Copy !req
413. Oh, it must be a short.
Copy !req
414. Right, where's your fuse box?
Copy !req
415. There's nothing on the metre.
Copy !req
416. The kids are starting school and
I wanted to get 'em some nice new clothes.
Copy !req
417. And I thought I was gonna
get me money tomorrow.
Copy !req
418. Right.
Copy !req
419. I'll bring me tools round
and I'll sort this place out for you.
Copy !req
420. - Will ya?
- Yeah, course I will.
Copy !req
421. Shouldn't take long.
Copy !req
422. Right, thank you.
Copy !req
423. "Max Million", to my fucking address?
Copy !req
424. - China, what's in this box?
- Dan, it's not what you think it is.
Copy !req
425. Don't jump to conclusions.
Copy !req
426. Shift that bloody rubbish
and shift your arse.
Copy !req
427. I wanna see what's in this box.
Copy !req
428. Oh my God. Wow.
Copy !req
429. - What d'you think of these?
- Bloody trainers?
Copy !req
430. - Trainers.
- Trainers.
Copy !req
431. - These are only the best, Dan.
- Very best.
Copy !req
432. Aren't they, Piper?
Copy !req
433. Aren't they?
Copy !req
434. Stop it, man, I've got brittle bones.
Copy !req
435. Anyways, I've got a test for you, Dan.
Copy !req
436. - Go on, open it.
- Open that.
Copy !req
437. What's the difference?
Copy !req
438. Yeah. What's the difference
between them two?
Copy !req
439. They look the same.
Copy !req
440. - Bang on, brother.
- Exactly.
Copy !req
441. The difference is, they'd have cost me
150 quid on the high street...
Copy !req
442. And I'm gonna sell those for 80 quid.
Copy !req
443. Cheap counterfeits to my fucking address?
Copy !req
444. I could have the Chinese Mafia
or the bloody Customs at me door.
Copy !req
445. The brass neck of the bloody pair of you.
Copy !req
446. Dan, these are not counterfeits.
Copy !req
447. They're from the same factory as these.
Copy !req
448. Exactly the same quality.
Continuation of the same run.
Copy !req
449. - D'you not believe us?
- It's fucking genius.
Copy !req
450. How d'you manage this?
Copy !req
451. Well I know a guy from Guangzhou, don't I,
who works in the factory.
Copy !req
452. Yeah, works in the factory.
Copy !req
453. He's football mad.
Copy !req
454. He knows everything
about the teams, the players, everything.
Copy !req
455. So we do the deals by e-mails.
I send him the money by PayPal,
Copy !req
456. then he sends me the package by post.
Copy !req
457. Me, you mean.
Copy !req
458. Honestly, Dan, I did mean to say,
like I get them sent to different mates.
Copy !req
459. You know, small packages
like not to attract too much attention.
Copy !req
460. They usually get through.
Copy !req
461. I'll be able to tell all me mates
I knew both of you
Copy !req
462. before you were arrested.
Copy !req
463. See these trainers, Dan,
Copy !req
464. these are the future.
Copy !req
465. No more crap jobs.
Copy !req
466. No more shit from that warehouse.
Copy !req
467. D'you know what the bastards
did this morning?
Copy !req
468. Got us in at 5:30.
Copy !req
469. Unloaded one truck.
Guess how long that took?
Copy !req
470. Forty-five minutes.
And you know how much I got paid?
Copy !req
471. Three pound and seventy-nine pence.
Copy !req
472. Waste of my fucking time.
It's worse than China.
Copy !req
473. I'm gonna make it big
one day, Dan. I'm serious.
Copy !req
474. Hi there, can I help you?
You look a bit lost.
Copy !req
475. Aye. I have to apply
for Jobseeker's Allowance...
Copy !req
476. - Right, yeah. Mmm-hmm.
- And I wanna use one of them
Copy !req
477. to get on to that Internet web thing.
Copy !req
478. Right, you could do that today.
Copy !req
479. We're a bit busy at the moment.
Copy !req
480. If you can come back a bit later,
would that be okay?
Copy !req
481. - And then contact Job Centre Plus.
- Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
482. And, here we are. "Claim Jobseeker's".
Copy !req
483. - Okay? So double-click on that one.
- Okay. All right.
Copy !req
484. And then we need to scroll

488. - Run the mouse up the screen, yeah? Okay.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
489. - No. No, not quite like that.
- No?
Copy !req
490. - What you need to do is get your cursor...
- "Your cursor"?
Copy !req
491. It's a fucking apt name for it.
Copy !req
492. So when you're moving your mouse,
Copy !req
493. - you see what I'm doing with my hand?
- Aye, right.
Copy !req
494. - Look at my hand.
- Aye. Oh, right, it moves like that.
Copy !req
495. - And then continue.
- Right, okay.
Copy !req
496. - And then you start from there. Okay?
- Okay.
Copy !req
497. - I'll leave you with it. Okay?
- Right.
Copy !req
498. Right.
Copy !req
499. Excuse me, pet.

Copy !req
507. - Oh, right.

Copy !req
512. - Click to the left.

Copy !req
513. And I just put that in there?
Oh, that's right, thanks very much.

Copy !req
522. Do you? I don't know, I was just
filling in the thing and it just went...
Copy !req
523. - There we go.
- Oh, oh, yeah, there we go.

I mean, what have I done now?
Copy !req
542. - It's frozen. Yeah.

Copy !req
543. Well... Well, can you defrost it?
Copy !req

- Thank you.
Copy !req
552. D'you have any dependent children
aged under 20 living with you?
Copy !req
553. No, I don't.
Copy !req
554. It's really important we get this filled in
because we need to get the process started.
Copy !req
555. Yeah.
Copy !req
556. Excuse me, Ann. Can I have a word, please?
Copy !req
557. Could you just give me 30 seconds, please?
We're just getting...
Copy !req
558. Well, actually,

Copy !req
559. Thank you.
Copy !req
560. - Right.
- Jesus, I've got you into trouble now.
Copy !req
561. - I'm really sorry.
- It's me that should be sorry.
Copy !req
562. You just carry on, you're doing good.
Copy !req
563. You know, Ann, we've spoke
about this before.
Copy !req
564. That isn't acceptable.
Copy !req
565. - I think in this case it's quite reasonable...
- Come on in the office.
Copy !req
566. The thing is you're setting a precedent.
Copy !req
567. It's not acceptable.
Copy !req
568. Oh, bugger. Bugger, it's...
Copy !req
569. Jesus...
Copy !req
570. I don't believe this.
Copy !req
571. No, I only want my share of the football.
Copy !req
572. Right then, that's the only team you
need to know in the northeast, is Newcastle.
Copy !req
573. What other teams do you know?
Copy !req
574. - Er, Middle... Middle-borough.
- Middlesbrough, aye.
Copy !req
575. - Middlesbrough. Yeah.

Copy !req
576. You know, you divvent need to think
about them either. Aye?
Copy !req
577. There you go.
Copy !req
578. Er, we only have one Wagon Wheel left,
so I cut it into four.
Copy !req
579. But you can have two pieces
considering you're the host.
Copy !req
580. Oh, there you go.
I'll put your tea down there.
Copy !req
581. - Oh, hang on.
- Barclay's Premier League.
Copy !req
582. Here's the big question, Stan Li.
Copy !req
583. Did you say "Stan Li"?
Copy !req
584. Yeah. Stan Li from Guangzhou.
Copy !req
585. Are you two winding me up?
Copy !req
586. No, that's not our style.
Copy !req
587. Can you hear me, Stan Li?
Copy !req
588. Favourite player in the Premier?
Copy !req
589. Charlie Adams, Stoke City.
Copy !req
590. Get the fuck out of here.
Copy !req
591. Are, are you taking the piss?
Copy !req
592. EPL is crazy money, man.
Copy !req
593. Charlie Adam. Four million.
Copy !req
594. No ego.
Copy !req
595. Team player.
Copy !req
596. Tough guy.
Copy !req
597. You see his goal against Chelsea
from his own half?
Copy !req
598. Boom!
Copy !req
599. The ball flies up, over Courtois' head.
Cross the line, line. Goal!
Copy !req
600. He's not in China.
He's in the bloody takeaway down the road.
Copy !req
601. You two, you're taking the piss.
Copy !req
602. Okay, Stan Li,
I'll e-mail you my best price. Top price.
Copy !req
603. I'm gonna see how I get on selling
these ones I've got, okay?
Copy !req
604. So I'll let you know.
Copy !req
605. Best price, no bullshit.
Copy !req
606. Remember, Charlie Charlie, all good money.
Copy !req
607. Okay, no best price, no more trainer.
Copy !req
608. No more business.
Copy !req
609. No more talkie-talkie. No more...
Copy !req
610. Right, Dan.
Check your National Insurance Number.
Copy !req
611. Yep, that's okay.
Copy !req
612. Press that button right there, Bill Gates.
Copy !req
613. - What, this one here?
- That one there, "Send."
Copy !req
614. Huh. It's taken me bloody days
to get this sorted out.
Copy !req
615. Well done, son.
Copy !req
616. Jobseeker's Application done.
Copy !req
617. Dan, don't know why you're applying
for that after your heart attack.
Copy !req
618. Right, now I'm printing your appeal form
for Employment and Support Allowance.
Copy !req
619. But you can't appeal till they carry out
a mandatory reconsideration.
Copy !req
620. Is that printing out now?
Copy !req
621. You mean, they could have
given it to me just like that?
Copy !req
622. Dan, they'll fuck you around,
I'm warning you.
Copy !req
623. Make it as miserable as possible.
Copy !req
624. No accident. That's the plan.
Copy !req
625. I know dozens who have just given up.
Copy !req
626. Well they've picked the wrong one
if they think I'm gonna give up.
Copy !req
627. I'm like a dog with a bone, me, son.
Copy !req
628. I have a note on the screen, sir,
Copy !req
629. that you're awaiting a call
from the decision maker.
Copy !req
630. Jesus, 55 minutes to hear all this again.
Copy !req
631. Am I in a time warp?
Copy !req
632. You can't proceed to the appeal
Copy !req
633. or the mandatory reconsideration
Copy !req
634. till you have the call
from the decision maker.
Copy !req
635. Well, can you ask him to phone us
now, because I've got no income.
Copy !req
636. I've got no pension
and I've still got the bedroom tax.
Copy !req
637. I'll make a note on my screen, sir.
Copy !req
638. Well can you not give him the note now?
Copy !req
639. You know, put it in his hand?
Copy !req
640. This is a call centre, sir.
Copy !req
641. Hey, Dylan. D'you want a shot
at the screwdriver?
Copy !req
642. What kills more people,
coconuts or sharks?
Copy !req
643. He likes bouncing that ball, doesn't he?
Copy !req
644. Pardon?
Copy !req
645. That ball.
He likes bouncing it, doesn't he?
Copy !req
646. Well, it started in the hostel
where we had only one small room.
Copy !req
647. Why d'you think he does that?
Copy !req
648. I think he's missing his friends.
Copy !req
649. But he also does it when he's angry.
Copy !req
650. People never listen to him,
so why should he listen to them?
Copy !req
651. There you go. And we don't need
any glue, nothing like that.
Copy !req
652. Now you give me a hand
and we'll stick this up.
Copy !req
653. Right, you go that end and I'll go this end.
Copy !req
654. And we'll stick this up here.
Copy !req
655. Yeah? Just pass it up here.
Copy !req
656. Aye, right. You do the bottom edge.
That's it.
Copy !req
657. The sun heats up all
the air in these bubbles...
Copy !req
658. And it'll keep your room nice and warm.
Copy !req
659. Can you go into my tool bag there,
Copy !req
660. there's a piece of cloth.
Copy !req
661. Can you open it?
Copy !req
662. Eh?
Copy !req
663. - What do you think of that?
- It's gorgeous.
Copy !req
664. Well it's a little present for
your new room.
Copy !req
665. - Now...
- Thank you.
Copy !req
666. - Where shall we put it?
- Up there, maybe.
Copy !req
667. Okay, hang on.
Copy !req
668. I'll get a hook and hang it there.
Copy !req
669. Yeah, what do you think?
Copy !req
670. It's great.
Copy !req
671. It'll look like you're under the sea.
Copy !req
672. And the sun will shine on them.
Copy !req
673. I think there will be fine, yeah?
Copy !req
674. I'll light these candles.
Copy !req
675. - Whoa.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
676. - Now hang on.
- That one's big.
Copy !req
677. It is. Now there's four candles. Right?
Copy !req
678. Mind you don't burn yourself.
Copy !req
679. I won't burn meself,
don't worry about that.
Copy !req
680. But thank you for thinking about us, Daisy.
Copy !req
681. Put that in there like that.
Copy !req
682. And I put this one in here.
Now there's four candles in there, right.
Copy !req
683. And they last for four hours.
Copy !req
684. I'll put this small pot over. Right?
Copy !req
685. Block the hole off up there.
Copy !req
686. And then I put this big pot over the top.
Copy !req
687. Now it takes a little while
but it'll take the chill off the room.
Copy !req
688. And if you just put your hand
over there now, you'll feel it, Daisy.
Copy !req
689. If you just put your hand over there,
you'll feel it starting to warm up.
Copy !req
690. - Huh, can you feel it? Yeah?
- A little bit.
Copy !req
691. - What about you?
- Yeah, a little bit.
Copy !req
692. Were you a soldier, Dan?
Copy !req
693. Was I a soldier?
Copy !req
694. Oh, more dangerous than that.
I was a carpenter.
Copy !req
695. Right, grub's ready.
Copy !req
696. - Yay!
- Go round that way then, Dylan.
Copy !req
697. Good boy. There's yours, poppet.
Copy !req
698. Right, put Sweet on there.
Copy !req
699. Sit down nicely then.
Copy !req
700. - And, Dan, this one's yours.
- Oh, no, not for me, thanks, no.
Copy !req
701. That's yours. All right?
Copy !req
702. Here you are. All right?
Copy !req
703. - Well, where's yours?
- I had mine earlier.
Copy !req
704. I'm just gonna have a bit of fruit.
Copy !req
705. You said that yesterday,
and the day before.
Copy !req
706. All right, eat up then.
Copy !req
707. Looks delicious but, you know,
it's a wee... It's a wee bit early for me.
Copy !req
708. Please, Dan. It's the least I can do.
Copy !req
709. - Thank you, Katie.
- All right.
Copy !req
710. What was that sound, Mum?
Copy !req
711. Oh, babe, one of the tiles just fell off
the wall in the bathroom
Copy !req
712. where I was cleaning it.
Copy !req
713. It's the middle of the night.
Copy !req
714. - I know.
- You should really get to bed.
Copy !req
715. Okay. I'm gonna go to bed.
Copy !req
716. I'm gonna go to bed.
Copy !req
717. I just wanted to
get all the cleaning done in there
Copy !req
718. so you can have a nice bath tomorrow.
Copy !req
719. You like a bath, don't ya?
Copy !req
720. Yeah?
Copy !req
721. So you're gonna go up
and get into bed and wrap up nicely.
Copy !req
722. Okay, good girl. Give me a kiss.
Copy !req
723. Go and get into bed.
Copy !req
724. - All right? Good girl.
- Promise me you'll get to bed.
Copy !req
725. I promise you I'm gonna go to bed.
Copy !req
726. - Good night.
- 'Night, baby.
Copy !req
727. Daniel Blake?
Copy !req
728. If you'd like to follow me, Mr Blake.
Copy !req
729. If you'd like to just take a seat.
Copy !req
730. This is the Claimant Commitment form.
Copy !req
731. You must commit yourself to spending
35 hours a week looking for work.
Copy !req
732. Now that can be newspapers, agencies,
Copy !req
733. and online via the Universal Job Match.
Copy !req
734. You just fill in the details.
Copy !req
735. But you must prove that
you've done this as well, mind.
Copy !req
736. Well I've been told by my doctor
that I'm not supposed to go back to work yet.
Copy !req
737. Then you should apply
for Employment and Support Allowance.
Copy !req
738. I have, but I've been knocked
back by some quack
Copy !req
739. and now I'm trying to appeal.
Copy !req
740. Okay. Well that's your choice, Mr Blake.
Copy !req
741. No, it's not my choice.
Copy !req
742. I've got no other form of income.
Copy !req
743. Do you want to sign this or not?
Copy !req
744. You just need to put your
signature here. I shall date it later on.
Copy !req
745. Thank you.
Copy !req
746. Now can I have a look at your CV?
Copy !req
747. "CV"?
Copy !req
748. You still don't get this, do you, Mr Blake?
Copy !req
749. This is an agreement between
you and the State.
Copy !req
750. No, you still don't get it.
Copy !req
751. - No, you must...
- I'm desperate to go back to work.
Copy !req
752. - If you're desperate to get back to work...
- Unless the doctor tells us...
Copy !req
753. You need to have an up-to-date CV,
Copy !req
754. in order to help you look for work.
Copy !req
755. Now, just hold it right there.
Copy !req
756. There's a CV workshop
that I would like you to attend
Copy !req
757. and it's this Saturday at 9:00.
Copy !req
758. No, thanks, I'll sort that out on me own.
Copy !req
759. No, Mr Blake. This is a formal direction.
Copy !req
760. You will attend if you want to proceed
with your Jobseeker's Allowance claim.
Copy !req
761. What happens if I don't?
Copy !req
762. Then you will be referred for a sanction.
Copy !req
763. Ten seconds.
Copy !req
764. Ten short seconds.
Copy !req
765. That's how much a typical employer
spends flipping through a CV.
Copy !req
766. Fact.
Copy !req
767. Sixty applications for every low-skilled job.
Copy !req
768. Fact.
Copy !req
769. For a skilled job, it's twenty to one.
Copy !req
770. Fact.
Copy !req
771. Costa Coffee advertised eight jobs.
Copy !req
772. D'you know how many applications
they got from that?
Copy !req
773. Over 1,300.
Copy !req
774. Fact.
Copy !req
775. So, what does that mean?
Copy !req
776. We should all be drinking
a lot more bloody coffee.
Copy !req
777. Yeah, d'you wanna share that with us?
Copy !req
778. I said, we should all be drinking
a lot more bloody coffee then.
Copy !req
779. This is serious business
Copy !req
780. and people have only got
one shot at this, all right?
Copy !req
781. Well if you can count, it's obvious.
There's not enough jobs. Fact.
Copy !req
782. Yeah, well, you'll be at
the back of the queue, won't you?
Copy !req
783. For those of us in the real world,
Copy !req
784. what that means is...
Copy !req
785. "You must stand
Copy !req
786. "out from the crowd."
Copy !req
787. Get noticed. Get smart.
Copy !req
788. It's not enough these days just to, er,
Copy !req
789. just to show you have the skills.
Copy !req
790. You have to prove
Copy !req
791. how keen you are. How dedicated.
Copy !req
792. Okay...
Copy !req
793. What I'd like you to do now
is to, er, format your CVs.
Copy !req
794. And, remember, all of these
have to be typed up in a clear font
Copy !req
795. in hard copy.
Copy !req
796. And we're also gonna need
a digital version for online.
Copy !req
797. And some companies,
Copy !req
798. they're demanding CV videos,
sent in by smartphone.
Copy !req
799. How about that?
Copy !req
800. Okay? Let's make a start.
Copy !req
801. Are you taking any blokes on, mate?
Copy !req
802. I'm a joiner, you know
I'm just looking for some work, you know.

Copy !req
806. D'you know if anybody's
taking anybody on round here?
Copy !req
807. Er, no, we're not taking anyone on.
Copy !req
808. Er, I'll tell you what you could do.
Copy !req
809. If you try about three units
up on the left there,
Copy !req
810. they'll probably...
They, they might be havin' one.
Copy !req
811. - Okay, thanks.
- Okay? Cheers, mate.
Copy !req
812. - Your best bet is to see him.
- Is he the boss? Him?
Copy !req
813. He's, he's the supervisor.
That's the boss there.
Copy !req
814. Excuse me, mate. D'you know if
they're taking anybody on here?
Copy !req

Copy !req
901. - I'll get you a drink.
- Mum, what's going on?
Copy !req
902. It's okay. It's okay
Copy !req
903. I'm just really hungry.
Copy !req
904. - Okay, don't look at me.
- No, no, no, it's okay, it's okay.
Copy !req
905. There's no harm done.
Copy !req
906. I can't cope, Dan.
I feel like I'm going under.
Copy !req
907. Look, you'll get through this, darling.
Copy !req
908. - Thank you.
- You'll get through this.
Copy !req
909. Katie, listen to me.
This isn't your fault.
Copy !req
910. You've done amazing.
Copy !req
911. Dumped up here, on your own with two kids.
Copy !req
912. You've done nothing to be ashamed of.
Copy !req
913. Come on, you're okay.
Copy !req
914. Come on, wipe yourself.
Copy !req
915. Come on... You're okay.
Copy !req
916. - If my mum could see me...
- It's okay.
Copy !req
917. Look, these people are here to help you.
Copy !req
918. You know, you've done nothing
to be ashamed of.
Copy !req
919. - I'm so sorry.
- No, no, you're all right.
Copy !req
920. - Can I get you anything else?
- I just felt really faint.
Copy !req
921. D'you need some paper
tissues or baby wipes?
Copy !req
922. - I'll get you some baby wipes.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
923. I felt really faint.
Copy !req
924. Katie, can I get you something to eat?
Would you like some soup or something?
Copy !req
925. Yeah, yeah, yeah...
If you could get her some water.
Copy !req
926. Sure, yeah, anything. Yeah.
You not want some food?
Copy !req
927. - Yeah, please, get...
- Even something sugary.
Copy !req
928. I'll get you a doughnut or something.
Copy !req
929. Yeah, yeah?
Copy !req
930. There's no middlemen.
Straight from the factory.
Copy !req
931. Same quality as the shop.
Copy !req
932. - Same quality, exactly.
- Well, you're gonna have to do us a deal.
Copy !req
933. I couldn't pay 80 quid for this, though.
Copy !req
934. If you go to the shop, they're 150 pounds.
Copy !req
935. - A hundred and fifty quid?
- I'm selling these for 80 pounds.
Copy !req
936. - Only 80 quid.
- See, they've still got the stickers on.
Copy !req
937. Why are they 80?
Copy !req
938. The reason they're 80 is because
there's no middlemen, nothing.
Copy !req
939. - No middlemen, whatsoever.
- You and Piper, the top new businessmen.
Copy !req
940. That's my driver, Dan.
Copy !req
941. I'll give you a bloody driver.
Copy !req
942. So no-one's worn them before?
Copy !req
943. No-one's wore them. Nothing, look.
Check the quality yourself.
Copy !req
944. I'd probably wear them for the gym.
Copy !req
945. I couldn't say 80 quid, mate.
This is too expensive for 80 quid.
Copy !req
946. - They're 150 pound in the shop.
- A hundred and fifty pound, yeah.
Copy !req
947. - Oh, Dan. You all right, mate?
- Hello, Joe.
Copy !req
948. - Aye, I'm all right, mate, aye.
- How are you doing?
Copy !req
949. Erm, listen, we're ganning, erm...
We're away down the pub the night.
Copy !req
950. There's a load of us ganning.
There's a band on, you know.
Copy !req
951. We're gonna sink a few pints.
D'you fancy, fancy coming down?
Copy !req
952. Aye, I'd murder a pint, mate, but I daresn't.
I've been telt to lay off the sauce, you know.
Copy !req
953. - Oh, really?
- But, listen, tell the lads I'll come down
Copy !req
954. and pop into the sawmill, eh?
Copy !req
955. Oh, aye, aye, aye.
Copy !req
956. You know, if you fancy it anyway,
we're all going down.
Copy !req
957. So we might see you later, mate.
Copy !req
958. - Nice to see you, man.
- See you then. Ta-ta, see you.
Copy !req
959. Message for Daniel Blake.
Copy !req
960. Mr Blake, this is a call
from the DWP decision maker.
Copy !req
961. You should soon receive a letter
Copy !req
962. which states that you have been
deemed fit for work
Copy !req
963. and not entitled to Employment
and Support Allowance.
Copy !req
964. If you need any further information,
Copy !req
965. it's available online. Thank you.
Copy !req
966. Fuck's sake.
Copy !req
967. - Hello?
- Hi, is that Daniel?
Copy !req
968. Yes, it is. Hi.
Copy !req
969. Hi, Daniel, it's Harry Edwards here.
Copy !req
970. We spoke the other day
at the garden centre...
Copy !req
971. - Oh, yeah, yeah.
- ... when you came down and handed your CV.
Copy !req
972. - How are you doing, mate? Are you all right?
- Yeah, yeah, I'm fine, thanks, yeah.
Copy !req
973. Er, listen. I tell you what, mate,
I've been going through all the CVs
Copy !req
974. I've had handed over
the last couple of weeks.
Copy !req
975. And I really like the look of yours.
Copy !req
976. Erm, you've got the experience
I'm looking for.
Copy !req
977. I was wondering if you could possibly, er,
pop by tomorrow and that for an interview?
Copy !req
978. Oh... I'm really sorry, er, Mr Edwards,
Copy !req
979. but, you know, er, my doctor's told
us I cannae come back to work yet.
Copy !req
980. So you're not actually
looking for work, then?
Copy !req
981. Well, it's hard to explain, you know.
Copy !req
982. So, well, what's the point
of handing in your CV
Copy !req
983. if you're not looking for work?
Copy !req
984. Well it's the only way
I can get me benefits, you know?
Copy !req
985. "Benefits"? So you prefer to be on
benefits than do a day's graft?
Copy !req
986. You know, I thought you were
a genuine bloke.
Copy !req
987. You know, I've spent a lot of time
going through them all.
Copy !req
988. I've... I was gonna put some graft your way.
Copy !req
989. You've just wasted my time completely.
Why don't you just sod right off!
Copy !req
990. Listen, that's not...
Copy !req
991. - That's your change and your receipt.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
992. - Thank you very much. Have a good day.
- Bye.
Copy !req
993. - Bye.
- Thank you, bye.
Copy !req
994. Excuse me, madam.
I think you've been shoplifting.
Copy !req
995. Would you like to come with me to
the manager's office and we can sort it out?
Copy !req
996. I haven't been shoplifting.
Copy !req
997. Okay, you have, and I've seen you.
So if you'd like to come with me...
Copy !req
998. No, I've got a receipt. I've got, I've just,
Copy !req
999. - the lady there's just served me.

Copy !req
1004. I can lock the door and call the police.
Copy !req
1005. You're talking about locking the
door and calling the police.
Copy !req
1006. Would you like to come with me
to the manager's office?
Copy !req
1007. No, because I've just, you've

Copy !req
1032. Look, if you're in trouble and you

Copy !req
1040. What's this, Dan?
Copy !req
1041. It's a cassette.
Copy !req
1042. What's a cassette?
Copy !req
1043. Plays music. Come here, I'll show you.
Copy !req
1044. All right.
Copy !req
1045. You pop that in there.
Oh, no, you gotta take it out the case first.
Copy !req
1046. It'll not play like that.
Copy !req
1047. Right, you put that in there like that. Yeah?
Copy !req
1048. And press that button there.
Copy !req
1049. Bit more. Harder.
Copy !req
1050. That's it.
Copy !req
1051. It was Molly's.
Copy !req
1052. She recorded it off the radio.
Copy !req
1053. Shipping forecast.
Copy !req
1054. It's on late at night.
Copy !req
1055. Sailing By. D'you like that tune?
Copy !req
1056. - Yeah.
- Yeah, Molly loved it.
Copy !req
1057. It's nice, isn't it?
Copy !req
1058. So how'd the interview go?
Copy !req
1059. Oh, nothing's working out
with the school times at the minute.
Copy !req
1060. So I went to, erm, some of the agencies
and put my name down on the waiting list,
Copy !req
1061. cos I could do cleaning in the morning.
Copy !req
1062. Went to some hotels.
Went round all the cafes.
Copy !req
1063. Must have walked for bloody miles.
Copy !req
1064. Well, I can pick the kids
up for you, you know.
Copy !req
1065. Till I start work again.
Copy !req
1066. Dan. The answer is "coconuts".
Copy !req
1067. Correct.
Copy !req
1068. What's he talking about, "coconuts"?
Copy !req
1069. Ah, shall we tell your mum?
Copy !req
1070. - Go on.
- When I was bouncing my ball on the stairs.
Copy !req
1071. - What stairs?
- The stairs in our house.
Copy !req
1072. - Yeah.
- Dan asked me a question.
Copy !req
1073. What, what question did he ask ya?
Copy !req
1074. "What kills people more?
Copy !req
1075. - "Coconuts or sharks?"
- Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
1076. And I said coconuts.
Copy !req
1077. And you got it right?
Copy !req
1078. - Is that right?
- Yeah, he's right.
Copy !req
1079. Is that Molly?
Copy !req
1080. Yeah. Yeah, that's Molly, yeah.
Copy !req
1081. Let's see that, Dais.
Copy !req
1082. Show me that one.
Copy !req
1083. "Molly." Like the name.
Copy !req
1084. What was she like?
Copy !req
1085. She was special.
Copy !req
1086. Yeah, she was special, Daisy.
Copy !req
1087. Not easy.
Copy !req
1088. She was up one minute, down the next.
Copy !req
1089. Smart and funny. Huh.
Copy !req
1090. Ah, that lass made me laugh.
Copy !req
1091. Kind.
Copy !req
1092. She had a big, big heart.
Copy !req
1093. But...
Copy !req
1094. She said her head was like the ocean.
Copy !req
1095. Dead still, then wild.
Copy !req
1096. Never knew where she'd end up next.
Copy !req
1097. I mean, the music helped that.
Copy !req
1098. But then she'd hit the rocks.
Copy !req
1099. "Where'll we sail to tonight, Dan?"
Copy !req
1100. That was our little joke.
Copy !req
1101. Her last words to me were,
Copy !req
1102. "I wanna sail away, Dan,
with the wind at me back.
Copy !req
1103. "That's all I need, Dan."
Copy !req
1104. Do you have any children?
Copy !req
1105. I'd have loved that, Daisy. No.
Copy !req
1106. - Do you miss her?
- Dais.
Copy !req
1107. It's okay.
Copy !req
1108. She was crazy.
Copy !req
1109. Hard work.
Copy !req
1110. But I loved her to bits.
Copy !req
1111. I'm lost without her, really.
Copy !req
1112. - There you go, pet.
- Oh, thank you.
Copy !req
1113. That must have been hard for you, Dan.
Copy !req
1114. I mean, did you look after her
right till the end?
Copy !req
1115. Well, you know, I thought it'd be
a relief when she passed away.
Copy !req
1116. Cos it was difficult to go into work,
you know, when she was ill.
Copy !req
1117. And after you've been looking after
somebody for so long...
Copy !req
1118. It seems to take over your life, you know.
Copy !req
1119. - Yeah, and you forget your own.
- Huh.
Copy !req
1120. Well she was lucky to have you.
Copy !req
1121. Daisy's dad, I thought was
something really special.
Copy !req
1122. He turned out not to be.
Copy !req
1123. Me mum tried to warn me about it,
but I was 18, so I didn't listen.
Copy !req
1124. And then I did the same
thing with Dylan's dad.
Copy !req
1125. You're a young lass,
you got your whole life ahead of you.
Copy !req
1126. And when you get back
to those books, you'll be flying.
Copy !req
1127. Yeah, I can't look at 'em, Dan.
They really upset me.
Copy !req
1128. - You gotta keep a hold, you know.
- Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
1129. You're doing your kids proud.
Copy !req
1130. I mean, we all need the wind
at our back every now and then.
Copy !req
1131. - Don't we?
- Mmm. Yeah.
Copy !req
1132. Well that's not good enough, Mr Blake.
Copy !req
1133. And how do I know you've actually
been in contact with all these employers?
Copy !req
1134. Well, I walked round the town.
I gave out me CV by hand.
Copy !req
1135. Well, prove it.
Copy !req
1136. - How?
- Well, did you get a receipt?
Copy !req
1137. Take a picture with your mobile?
Copy !req
1138. With this?
Copy !req
1139. I give you my word that's what I did.
Copy !req
1140. That's not good enough, Mr Blake.
Copy !req
1141. What about the Universal Job Match online?
Copy !req
1142. I went to the library,
there's my appointment card.
Copy !req
1143. Did my head in. And I tried my best.
Copy !req
1144. It's not good enough.
Copy !req
1145. Can I look at your CV?
Copy !req
1146. All right.
Copy !req
1147. Did you not learn anything
at the CV workshop?
Copy !req
1148. You'd be surprised.
Copy !req
1149. Not good enough, Sheila?
Copy !req
1150. I'm afraid I'm gonna have to refer you
Copy !req
1151. to a decision maker for a possible
sanction for four weeks.
Copy !req
1152. Your payment will be frozen.
Copy !req
1153. You may be entitled
to Hardship Allowance if you apply.
Copy !req
1154. Do you understand?
Copy !req
1155. And if you are sanctioned, you must
continue to look for work and sign on.
Copy !req
1156. If you don't, you may be sanctioned again.
Copy !req
1157. And it's likely to be for thirteen weeks
on the second occasion, and thereafter.
Copy !req
1158. And likely to be the maximum
of up to three years.
Copy !req
1159. Would you like me to write
you a referral to a food bank?
Copy !req
1160. Dan, you're not leaving, are you?
Copy !req
1161. Aye, I'm off to the Bahamas.
Copy !req
1162. Nah, I'm just sick of the old stuff.
I need a change.
Copy !req
1163. Are you okay, Dan?
Copy !req
1164. I'm fine, son.
Copy !req
1165. You don't look okay.
Copy !req
1166. No, really, I'm fine.
Copy !req
1167. You haven't given us a row
about leaving the rubbish out.
Copy !req
1168. I'm okay, China, really.
Copy !req
1169. If you need anything, Dan, let me know.
Copy !req
1170. Absolutely anything.
Copy !req
1171. I mean it, Dan, anything.
Copy !req
1172. I know, son.
Copy !req
1173. Twenty, forty, sixty, eighty, a hundred.
Copy !req
1174. Twenty, forty, sixty, eighty, two hundred.
Copy !req
1175. All right?
Copy !req
1176. Aye, fair enough.
Copy !req
1177. Anything else I can help you with?
Copy !req
1178. No, that's it.
Copy !req
1179. What about these?
Copy !req
1180. Good quality hand tools.
Copy !req
1181. Nae chance. I'll be ganning back
to work soon enough.
Copy !req
1182. Well, the offer's there.
Copy !req
1183. Now these look nice. How much d'you want?
Copy !req
1184. They're not for sale, mate.
Copy !req
1185. Give us a ring if you change
your mind. See you now.
Copy !req
1186. What are you doing?
Copy !req
1187. Oh, you're freezing.
Copy !req
1188. What's wrong?
Copy !req
1189. Well, erm, the girls at school
are making fun of me.
Copy !req
1190. They're what?
Copy !req
1191. The girls at school are making fun of me.
Copy !req
1192. Why are they making fun of you?
Copy !req
1193. My shoes fell apart.
Copy !req
1194. Oh, did they?
Copy !req
1195. But we glued them back together.
Copy !req
1196. - Mmm.
- They fell apart again?
Copy !req
1197. All right, we can get you
a new pair of shoes.
Copy !req
1198. We don't have the money.
Copy !req
1199. Don't you worry about that,
we can get you a new pair of shoes.
Copy !req
1200. Okay.
Copy !req
1201. One of the girls heard about
what happened at the food bank.
Copy !req
1202. And they're saying
things to you about that, are they?
Copy !req
1203. We'll get it sorted, don't you worry.
Copy !req
1204. D'you wanna sleep here with me?

somebody about their work
Copy !req
1239. and she wants to speak to you.
Copy !req
1240. Oh, and they, they loved all your stories.
Copy !req

Copy !req
1249. Oh, no, Dan.
Copy !req
1250. Katie, you don't need to do this.
Copy !req
1251. You shouldn't see me like this.
Copy !req
1252. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
1253. No, this, this is cut off. This is separate.
Can you... You need to get out.
Copy !req
1254. Listen, I couldn't speak to you in the flat,
I need to speak to you now.
Copy !req
1255. Dan, please, get out.

1256. Oh, Katie, please, I need to speak to you.
Copy !req

Copy !req
1258. Dan, please, just go.
Copy !req
1259. Dan, please, I don't want you here!
Will you just go, please!
Copy !req
1260. - I've built you a bookcase.
- What?
Copy !req
1261. For your books.
Copy !req
1262. Oh, Dan. Please, just go.
Copy !req
1263. - Please, just go, I don't want you here.
- This is breaking my heart.
Copy !req
1264. Dan, please, just leave me alone.
Copy !req
1265. I've got 300 quid in my pocket.
Copy !req
1266. I can buy the kids fresh fruit.
Copy !req
1267. If you can't deal with it,
I can't see you any more.
Copy !req
1268. Listen, I've gotta go back inside.
D'you understand?
Copy !req
1269. I don't wanna speak to you any more.
Copy !req
1270. And don't show me any more love.
Copy !req
1271. Cos you're gonna break me, Dan.
Copy !req
1272. I don't understand.
Copy !req
1273. So what jobs have you actually applied for?
Copy !req
1274. It's a monumental farce, isn't it?
Copy !req
1275. You sitting there with your
friendly name tag on your chest, Ann,
Copy !req
1276. opposite a sick man looking
for nonexistent jobs,
Copy !req
1277. that I can't take anyway.
Copy !req
1278. Wasting my time, employers' time, your time.
Copy !req
1279. And all it does is humiliate me,
grind me down.
Copy !req
1280. Or is that the point,
to get my name off those computers?
Copy !req
1281. Well, I'm not doing it any more.
Copy !req
1282. I've had enough.
Copy !req
1283. I want my date for my appointment
Copy !req
1284. for my appeal for Employment and Support.
Copy !req
1285. - Have you not had that yet?
- No.
Copy !req
1286. Please listen to me, Dan.
Copy !req
1287. It's a huge decision to come off JSA
without any other income coming in.
Copy !req
1288. Look, it... It could be weeks before
your appeal comes through.
Copy !req
1289. You see, there's no time limit
for a mandatory reconsideration.
Copy !req
1290. I've got a time limit.
Copy !req
1291. And you might not win.
Copy !req
1292. Please, just keep signing on.
Copy !req
1293. Get somebody to help you
with the online job searches.
Copy !req
1294. Otherwise, you could lose everything.
Copy !req
1295. Please don't do this. I've seen it before.
Copy !req
1296. Good people, honest people, on the street.
Copy !req
1297. Thank you, Ann.
Copy !req
1298. But when you lose your self-respect,
you're done for.
Copy !req
1299. I'll be seeing you gentlemen later.
Copy !req
1300. Oh, wait until security sees this.
Copy !req
1301. What's going on here?
What are you fucking playing at?
Copy !req
1302. - Aye-aye. You cannot touch us.
- Well that's clever, in't it?
Copy !req
1303. It's me new art installation.
Copy !req
1304. Eh? Certainly can, lads. Come on.
Copy !req
1305. Look at this, you got all the technology.
Copy !req
1306. - Look at this!
- I can't believe it.
Copy !req
1307. I cannot believe it, man.
What have you done?
Copy !req
1308. This is me new hobby.
Shall I put that on my CV?
Copy !req
1309. Did you stop, even for a second,
Copy !req
1310. to think about the consequences
of what you've done here?
Copy !req
1311. All I know, mate,
is if I divvent get my appeal date,
Copy !req
1312. I'll be here every day doing this.
Copy !req
1313. - Unbelievable. Every day?
- Every day.
Copy !req
1314. Tell you what, Ben,
just phone the police. Okay.
Copy !req
1315. I cannae... Listen, mate,
I cannot believe this now.
Copy !req
1316. This is out of our hands.
We're gonna have to phone the cops, man.
Copy !req
1317. Well, if youse had done your job
like you should have done,
Copy !req
1318. I wouldn't have had to resort to this.
Copy !req
1319. I cannot believe it. I cannot believe it.
Copy !req
1320. Go on, lad, give him a hand.
Copy !req
1321. Yes!
Copy !req
1322. Words of wisdom!
Copy !req
1323. You're the man, wee man! Eh?
Copy !req
1324. Fucking eh? Yeah!
Copy !req
1325. Are youse out of work, mate?
Copy !req
1326. Are you fucking... Are you Daniel Blake?
Copy !req
1327. I am Daniel Blake, yes.
Copy !req
1328. Hey, this is Daniel Blake!
Copy !req
1329. Fucking look at that. Yeah!
Copy !req
1330. Yeah! Hey!
Copy !req
1331. You look fucking freezing, pal.
Here, have my jacket.
Copy !req
1332. - No, no.
- No, come on, man, have my fucking jacket.
Copy !req
1333. It's all right, son. Look after yoursel', eh?
Copy !req
1334. Keep yoursel' warm like.
Copy !req
1335. You're a gentleman.
Copy !req
1336. So what's, what's your appeal all about?
Copy !req
1337. Liar!
Copy !req
1338. You're... You're under arrest
on suspicion of criminal damage.
Copy !req
1339. Hey, a miscarriage of justice, eh.
Copy !req
1340. Slow down. Whoa. Back off.
Copy !req
1341. All right, all right, all right.

Copy !req
1366. Aye.
Copy !req
1367. - See him out, please.
- This way, Mr Blake.
Copy !req
1368. Dan. Dan!
Copy !req
1369. Come, I need to talk to you.
Copy !req
1370. We called you loads of times.
Copy !req
1371. Dan!
Copy !req
1372. Mum's been so sad lately.
Copy !req
1373. Why don't you speak to her?
Copy !req
1374. Don't you have credit on the phone?
Copy !req
1375. I see you.
Copy !req
1376. We understand what happened to your heart.
Copy !req
1377. Mum spoke to one of your neighbours.
Copy !req
1378. We didn't know about it.
Copy !req
1379. It's cold out here.
Copy !req
1380. I'm freezing.
Copy !req
1381. Please, Daisy, I'm not feeling very well.
Copy !req
1382. I made you some couscous.
Copy !req
1383. And Dylan sent you his lollipop.
Copy !req
1384. He's really missing you, too.
Copy !req
1385. Just go, Daisy, please.
Copy !req
1386. Can I ask you one question, Dan?
Copy !req
1387. Did you help us?
Copy !req
1388. Suppose so.
Copy !req
1389. So why can't I help you?
Copy !req
1390. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
1391. I'm sorry, Daisy.
Copy !req
1392. I'm really sorry.
Copy !req
1393. You know, I'm not usually a nervous person,
Katie, but I'm nervous about this.
Copy !req
1394. It's only natural, Dan.
Copy !req
1395. I just want it done, you know?
Copy !req
1396. Yeah. Well, you're prepared.
You got all your papers.
Copy !req
1397. You've got a good,
good person representing you.
Copy !req
1398. And then when you're done,
you can come, come to dinner to celebrate.
Copy !req
1399. The kids are really looking
forward to seeing you.
Copy !req
1400. Hi, er, Daniel Blake. I've come for my appeal
for the reinstatement of my...
Copy !req
1401. Employment and Support Allowance.
Copy !req
1402. - Daniel, hi. Hello. Are you all right?
- Hello.
Copy !req
1403. - Hi, I'm Katie. I'm a friend of Daniel's.
- Hi.
Copy !req
1404. - You're here for support, yeah?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
1405. Daniel, your appeal will be heard by
a legally qualified chairperson and a doctor.
Copy !req
1406. - Aye, fingers crossed.
- Yeah...
Copy !req
1407. If I lose this appeal,
I'm out on the streets.
Copy !req
1408. Well, we've got some updated
reports here from your GP,
Copy !req
1409. your own consultant and your
physiotherapist.
Copy !req
1410. And they're all furious.
Copy !req
1411. You're gonna win this, Dan.
Copy !req
1412. I do this every week.
Copy !req
1413. - I bet me life on it.
- I told ya.
Copy !req
1414. Just be yourself,
answer the questions and relax.
Copy !req
1415. I'm really confident.
Copy !req
1416. D'you have any questions?
Copy !req
1417. Well, I've got one or two things
I'd like to get off me chest.
Copy !req
1418. - But will they listen?
- It's the least they can do.
Copy !req
1419. And can I go in with him?
Copy !req
1420. I'll certainly ask. Would you like her to?
Copy !req
1421. - Yeah. Definitely, yeah.
- Yeah?
Copy !req
1422. Okay, I'll certainly ask. No problem at all.
Copy !req
1423. All right. Thank you.
Copy !req
1424. My pleasure.
I'll just go and see what the score is.
Copy !req
1425. - Yeah.
- Sounds good, don't it?
Copy !req
1426. Look at them.
Copy !req
1427. It's funny, they've got
my life in their hands.
Copy !req
1428. Thanks, Katie, for coming.
Copy !req
1429. Thank you for asking me.
Copy !req
1430. You stubborn old bastard.
Copy !req
1431. I think I'll go and freshen up, yeah?
Copy !req
1432. All right.
Copy !req
1433. Can somebody, er,
phone an ambulance, please? 9-9-9.
Copy !req
1434. There's a guy collapsed in the toilet.
He's flat out.
Copy !req
1435. Phone 9-9-9. Somebody, please.
Copy !req
1436. Dan!
Copy !req
1437. No! Dan!
Copy !req
1438. Just had a heart attack.
Yeah, two breaths, please.
Copy !req
1439. Oh, Dan!
Copy !req
1440. - Just the two breaths...
- Is he breathing?
Copy !req
1441. Oh, Dan.
Copy !req
1442. Listen, we're trying to help
him as much as we can.
Copy !req
1443. No, no, no, please keep going,
please keep going. Don't stop.
Copy !req
1444. I'm afraid we've lost him.
Copy !req
1445. No, don't say that,
please don't say that. No.
Copy !req
1446. - No, please!
- I'm so sorry.
Copy !req
1447. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
1448. - Please...
- Where's the ambulance now?
Copy !req
1449. - Please.
- No response at all.
Copy !req
1450. Please. Please try again.
Copy !req
1451. Erm...
Copy !req
1452. They call this a "pauper's funeral"
because it's the cheapest slot, at 9:00.
Copy !req
1453. But Dan wasn't a pauper to us.
Copy !req
1454. He gave us things that money can't buy.
Copy !req
1455. When he died, I found this on him.
Copy !req
1456. He always used to write in pencil.
Copy !req
1457. Erm...
Copy !req
1458. And he wanted to read it at his appeal
but he never got the chance to.
Copy !req
1459. And I swear that this lovely man,
Copy !req
1460. had so much more to give,
Copy !req
1461. and that the State drove him
to an early grave.
Copy !req
1462. And this is what he wrote.
Copy !req
1463. "I am not a client, a customer,
nor a service user.
Copy !req
1464. "I am not a shirker, a scrounger,
a beggar, nor a thief.
Copy !req
1465. "I'm not a National Insurance Number
or blip on a screen.
Copy !req
1466. "I paid my dues, never a penny short,
and proud to do so.
Copy !req
1467. "I don't tug the forelock, but look my
neighbour in the eye and help him if I can.
Copy !req
1468. "I don't accept or seek charity.
Copy !req
1469. "My name is Daniel Blake.
I am a man, not a dog.
Copy !req
1470. "As such, I demand my rights.
Copy !req
1471. "I demand you treat me with respect.
Copy !req
1472. "I, Daniel Blake, am a citizen,
Copy !req
1473. "nothing more and nothing less."
Copy !req
1474. Thank you.
