We feel like we've got
and we've got to do
everything inside,
but we can build on it,
and that's what we want.
I've been promising to have a
housewarming party since we've moved in.
We've been here four months now,
so I thought it was
about time we did that.
So people are just
starting to arrive now.
So, you left the East End. Why?
Well, I've always
wanted to move out,
but you don't do that, or
the opportunity isn't there,
when you are own your
own with two kids.
I wish I had done it before.
It's timing, you know.
Now was the right time, obviously.
The East End has changed.
It's changed a lot.
He was even playing
"tie the tooth."
Mum comes down to me.
It's so easy for them.
They can jump on a train, and, you know,
the station's within walking distance,
so it's worked out
wonderfully well.
Some people are just born into
rich families, and they're lucky.
I don't see why they
should have the luck,
when people have worked
all their lives
and haven't got half as
much as what they have,
it just don't seem fair.
(Michael) So have you
moved up a class now?
That's difficult to say.
Up a class.
Um, I suppose it feels
like that to me.
No, there ain't
no need for food...
Now you've got the sense of pride,
you've got your own house.
I feel like I'm building
for the future.
(laughs)
I've been a single parent
for a long while.
I've brought them up
on my own, really,
because Catherine was
only two when Bill left.
It's been extremely hard
and it's been - sometimes
it's been very lonely.
I only had to have
one filling, right.
That was about the only
thing that I had done.
William's - he's a computer addict.
He works in the industry
and he also constantly
has a computer on indoors.
He-he could have
gone to university,
and he knows that and I know that,
and I do regret that for him.
But I've been there.
I can just remember I didn't
want to do that, either.
And Catherine's temping
because she wants to do a
bit of traveling next year.
People say she's me reincarnated.
I mean, she looks a bit like me
and her mannerisms
are exactly like me,
and she likes to enjoy herself.
To walk into a relationship
with someone who's
got two teenagers -
It must have been
very difficult for him,
and they do clash occasionally.
I absolutely hate it,
because I'm just
an easy-going person
and I don't like strife.
They are doing things
the way I've brought them up,
which isn't the way that Glen
would like things to be done,
so you've got to learn to live
together in the same house.
It will always be a learning curve.
I'm a peacemaker.
When the children were
old enough to go to school,
Sue went back to work and
She now helps run the MA courses
the university of London.
Still work for the college,
but we moved to central London.
Now I am sort of the main
administrator for the program
instead of an assistant, you know,
and I've got a couple of people
that help me with that.
Could you fax that to Mary
for me, please? Thanks.
So you like the responsibility?
Yeah, I love the responsibility.
I think I was born for the
responsibility. Yeah, I love it.
Well, I've never been abroad, but -
No, nor have I.
I have.
Oh, yeah, 'cause you went on
that cruise, didn't you? Yeah.
Once a year we go
to Cornwall or Devon.
We try to find a
different spot every year,
and we just bring the dog.
It's just such a lovely place.
Every time you turn a corner,
there's a different sight,
there's a different -
You just never know
what you're going to find.
Everything's just so beautiful.
We'd both had childhood holidays
here and good memories,
and we decided to come back,
and we've been coming ever since.
It's nice for us just to
be a couple for a week.
When we retire, or maybe
before, if we get lucky,
then this is the sort of
place we'd like to come to.
That little one there, right in
the middle nearest the beach -
That would be ideal, absolute
perfect - the perfect place.
(laughs)
Oh, that was good.
Vesto, vestas, vest...
Vestat.
Vestamus, vestatis, vestant.
(man) Here, speak up.
Fill out the gaps
on the board there.
When he was seven, Bruce was at
a preparatory boarding school.
At 14, St. Paul's in London.
They don't sort of enforce
being upper class
and things like that
at St. Paul's, you know.
They suggest that you don't have
long hair, and they do get it cut if,
and they teach you to be
reasonably well mannered
but not to sniff on
the poorer people.
At 21, he was in his last year
at Oxford, reading maths.
You can show that
this is irreducible.
Then you do a transformation on this
polynomial - x equal to t plus 2.
Good. That's a nice
way of doing it,
particularly using
Eisenstein down here.
His test is very powerful.
(Bruce calling children's names)
Yes, sir!
At 28, Bruce was teaching maths
in east London.
Well, I'll go into Africa
and try and teach people
who are not civilized
to be more or less good.
At 35, he was teaching in Silet
in northern Bangladesh.
And I also got the chance to learn a
bit of Bangla, which is very difficult.
Not doing very well at.
(instructor) Bangladesh,
Bangladesh. Bangladesh.
Bangladesh.
Bangladesh.
Bangladesh.
Before you do anything,
you have to make sure...
By 42, Bruce was back
in the East End
running the maths department
at a girls' school.
After naught hours you can see
that it would be 60 litres.
OK, now you want to put this
information... ( choir singing)
At 49, he's teaching at St. Albans,
a large boys' independent school
which has girls in the sixth form.
I sing in the choir.
On Mondays and Fridays
we go to the abbey,
because in the early days,
the school was in the abbey,
going back to 948.
(Michael) 948?
Yes, so the head
quite likes to say
we're in our third
millennium, you know.
So the school's over
Yes, in one form or another.
You have to make x
the subject of this equation,
so what's the first thing we do?
Multiply both sides by three.
You don't multiply...
Divide. Sorry. Divide by three.
(Michael) Tell me, then, what's
exciting about teaching here for you.
There is a higher
academic level to teach,
and then you can see pupils
at a more developed level,
that flash of recognition
and then engendering
their love of the subject
that I had at their age.
There is a class society,
may help its continuance.
So you're in the lead,
you see, because...
has it been a kind of compromise
of political principles
for you - this?
Well, I would say, you know,
have a million angels
who's prepared to slog away
at an inner-city comprehensive.
"Make way, make way.
"This is somebody who's prepared
to turn up each day
and do that job."
(Paul) Where's the graph?
(girl) 60?
60, right.
