No.

Tell me the truth.

I didn't, I didn't.

Was he in my house with my kids?

The kids don't know

anything about it.

Are you sure about that?

Yeah.

Because he was just

a friend to the kids.

'F***ing Eddie! '

'No! Please... '

'F***ing Eddie. '

'Please! '

I'm sorry!

You're sorry?

Get off me, Karen. Get off me!

No! No!

Please.

It's you I love, Ian.

BIRDS SINGING:

'Robert, Shaun, Katrina.

Breakfast is on the table. '

Morning.

Morning.

Mum sits there.

Well, I'm sitting there now.

He can sit where he wants.

Thanks.

Finished? Yeah.

Go get your jacket and your bag.

Have a good day.

You doing your singing today?

It'll be great.

Brush your teeth.

Have a good day.

Hmm-mm.

Right, can you stand up,

please, children?

Sssh. Well done.

We'll now sing While Shepherds

Watched Their Flocks By Night.

PIANO INTRO:

# While shepherds watched

their flocks by night

# All seated on the ground

# The angel of the Lord came down

# And glory shone around

# Fear not, said He

for mighty dread

# Had seized their troubled mind

# Glad tidings of great joy I bring

# To you and all mankind

# All glory be to God on high

# And to the earth be peace

# Goodwill henceforth

from heaven to men

# Begin and never cease. #

AUDIENCE APPLAUD

That was great, guys.

Mind that poo!

Mind that poo! You mind the poo!

Mind that poo!

Look, there's poo everywhere!

Well done, I really enjoyed that.

It was fantastic.

It was great, wasn't it?

We should celebrate.

Let's go to the beach!

It's too late to go to the beach.

It's too bloody cold.

We can go tomorrow.

We could borrow one of Henry's cars.

He said he didn't mind last night.

Oh, my gun, my gun!

Oh, is that a bazooka?

Come on, Robert, you can do it.

Here you are, Karen.

What are you doing?

You'll break your neck!

Come on.

Don't go that high, Mum,

you'll fall.

Yeah, don't go too high, Mum!

Dad's going to save me!

It's nice up here.

The world looks good from up here.

Come up, it's nice.

You'll break your neck.

Is this the same tree

that we used to climb?

Yeah.

To the beach.

To the beach!

Here we go.

Here we go. Getting off?

Yeah. OK.

Wait up!

Come on, sweetheart.

Wahey! Wahey!

Woo! Wahey!

Go, go, go, go!

Run, run, run, run!

Shaun! Come back!

Come on, Shaun!

Shaun!

Come on, Shaun!

Come on, Shaun!
