Has it?
Looks like a dentist's
waiting room.
[Maurice chuckles]
I'd kill for a cup o' tea.
If you're 21...
or a millionaire...
it's great.
Or you've got nine kids...
you're fine.
Brilliant. Open arms.
But for guys like you and me,
doesn't matter
how good you are -
forget it.
But it was an experience...
and now I'm back.
That's too bad.
You were full of such big plans.
[Stuart] It's a big place.
- That's true.
- Too f***in' big.
You're lookin' as gorgeous
as ever, Monica.
You thinkin' about
setting up again?
No, forget it.
Too much of a pain.
You know what
it's like, Maurice.
for years
and try and make people happy.
And what d'you get back?
Nothing!
(Thanks.)
By the way, this is
Jane, my assistant.
I bought the business
from Mr Christian.
- Hello.
- Hello, Jane.
I hope he's treatin' you well.
He's all right.
You can work for me any time.
I'm all right
where I am, thank you.
Your wife must've been
sorry to come back.
Which wife?
Ah, that b*tch.
She never came out there
in the first place.
Oh.
- Down in Grays.
- Essex.
- Yeah.
- Me mum's place.
- Must be nice for her.
- Havin' her boy to fuss over.
- She's dead.
She died when I was in Bangkok.
Aw!
- Sorry to hear that.
- That's a shame.
Didn't see much of her anyway.
It's my dad I miss.
You win some, you lose some.
[Teeth chatter against the mug]
You must've had some
lovely weather in Australia.
Too hot.
It's too hot over there,
it's too cold over here.
[Stuart]
Hasn't changed much in here.
[Maurice] Just a lick of paint.
Still got the Bronika, then?
Yup.
I should've thought
you'd be able to afford
a Hasselblad by now, Maurice.
I can.
Oh, well off, are you?
Survivin', mate, yeah.
Yeah. You've done well
out of my business, haven't you?
[Maurice] MY business.
[Stuart] It's MY business.
No. I bought it from you.
It's MY business.
- This was an antiques shop.
- That's right.
There was nothin' here.
- I know.
- I gave you my goodwill,
I gave you my clientele,
I gave you
my f***ing reputation.
You gave me nothing, Stuart.
- Your client list was sh*t.
- It wasn't.
I followed it up.
I rang 'em, I didn't
get one bite.
If there's any success
in this shop,
- it's down to me.
- That's bollocks!
It's not bollocks,
it's the truth.
- How many weddings do you do?
- Enough.
- How many?
- About 40 a year.
- I used to do 140!
- What, personally?
No. Nobody does 'em personally.
- I do.
- Then you're a bloody fool.
Get people in.
If the work's there,
grab it while you can.
I'm not getting some tosser in.
He could f*** up my reputation.
- I'm not a tosser!
- I didn't say you were.
- I'm not a f***ing tosser.
- I didn't mean you.
- Don't call me a tosser.
- I didn't, Stuart.
[Stuart] I can still do it!
I've still got an eye.
They can't teach you that.
- I'm still a photographer!
- 'Course you are.
So if you want someone
to help you out,
no worries, mate.
I'll be all right.
Right, right.
I see what you're
saying, Stuart, yeah.
I'll bear it in mind.
You could lend me a camera?
Yeah, sure.
I had mine nicked.
Yeah, great.
Thanks.
Sure.
[Monica] I thought we were
never gonna get rid of him.
There but for the grace of God.
Tea's on the table.
Right.
Ain't you havin' none?
No.
Why not?
I'm goin' out.
Where you goin'?
[TV is on]
I'm off now then, sweetheart.
Ain't you gonna tell me where?
You never tell me
where YOU'RE goin'.
You never go nowhere.
I'm going somewhere
tonight. Tada.
- Have fun.
- Don't wait up.
She's been actin' right funny.
Where's she gone?
F*** knows.
She wouldn't tell us.
He's all right, though, Maurice.
Always got plenty of wine in.
- We'll get well pissed.
- Nice one.
I'm a bit shy of you,
to tell you the truth.
Of me? Oh, you shouldn't be.
Look at you sittin' there.
You look like a model.
Oh, do I?
I'll bet you was
Yeah, lovely.
Don't do that!
You'll stay like it.
Stop it!
Don't spoil it.
I used to drive my mum
mad pullin' faces.
Bet she was a laugh, wasn't she?
No, not really.
Thought you said she
was a midwife.
Yeah.
I'd like to have been
one of them. I love babies.

You're gonna live

Who's this?
Oh, don't start all that again!
Come on, who is it?
- It ain't me, is it?
- No!
Well, who?

I can't understand
a word he says.
You like lookin' at him, though.
No, he ain't my sort.
- What IS your type?
- What, film star?
- Yeah.
- Marlon.
I like a bloke with
a bit of meat on him.
What sort of bloke

Oh.
Intelligent... sensitive...
Don't you care

Yeah, but they've gotta have
something going on upstairs.
You only have black
boyfriends, do you?
No.
How do YOU look

You know, if you don't
wanna have babies.
Condoms.
You just stop at that, do you?
Yeah. It's the best way.

birthday next week.
- How old is she?
- 21.
Nice age.
She's your sister now,
ain't she?
Yeah. Suppose she is.
Does she look like you?
Yeah, a bit.
You look more like me
than SHE does.
We're the same build.
What are her eyes like?
