- No, this was something else.

- Like what?

Like a crazy person

making weird noises.

What kind of noises?

Just weird noises, I don't know.

It's probably a bear.

Are there bears in Scotland?

No, there are

no bears in Scotland.

Honey, please just

come back to bed.

I can't, not until

you've had a look.

- Sarah.

- Please.

F***.

- Fine.

- Thank you.

Let's go.

Torch.

Right, so where did you see

this... this creature?

It's over there. Yeah.

- What, in here?

- No, it was behind that.

- What, behind the tractor?

- No, it was behind the shed.

Will you be careful?

Nope.

I swear I saw something.

Well, there's nothing there now.

Come on.

Come on, let's go back to bed.

Ed!

F***! F***! F***, it's a pig!

- My God!

- F***.

That is not...

- That is not funny.

- F***.

Did you see that before

and you didn't tell me?

No! No, of course I didn't,

why would I do that?

Well, where did it come from?

Dunno.

- What?

- What's that smell?

What?

Babe.

What?

Have you shat yourself?

Come on.

Probably.

Ed. Ed,

there's someone in the house.

- What?

- There's someone in the house.

Listen.

Just go back to sleep, baby.

Did you hear that?

- Where are you going now?

- Just wait.

Can you see anything?

No.

- Where are you going?

- To have a look.

Hello?

Give me the torch.

What if there's

somebody down there?

Then I'll tell them to...

Get the f*** out of my house!

We've called the police.

Can you hear me?

Sarah, go to the bedroom,

lock the door.

- Sarah, will you just please?

- I'm not going without you.

What is it?

The back door's open. Sh*t!

Hold that.

- Didn't you lock it?

- You closed it.

- Did I?

- Yeah.

- I must have forgotten.

- So it just blew open?

Well, I guess it did.

Come on, look. I'll

make sure it's locked now, OK?

What if there is

someone in there?

- There's no one in here.

- How do you know?

- I just looked!

- Not the front room.

- Look properly. Or upstairs.

- Come on.

Do you really want

me to do this?

Yeah, I do.

Do it.

OK. Well, come on then,

or do you want me to leave

this open all night?

- Where did you put the key?

- I didn't put the key anywhere.

OK.

Now do you want to lock it?

Ed?

Bastard!

Fee fi fo fum,

I smell the fear

of an Englishwoman.

I don't like it,

would you please stop it?

- And these are boobies.

- Stop it!

Would you just stop it? Stop it!

Alright, Jesus. Just trying

to have a bit of a laugh.

I'm sorry. It's not funny, OK?

Maybe we should

go and find a B&B?

OK, OK, now you're just

being silly.

Just for one night

until we get the power sorted.

Sarah, it's past midnight.

There's not gonna be anywhere

that's open.

OK?

Come here.

Now what are you doing?

I'm just gonna show people

there's someone in the house.

Why?

It's been empty for almost

a year, maybe it's been used.

By who?

Tramps. Or that kid,

I mean, what was he doing here?

He was just some kid.

He's not gonna turn up

in the middle of the night.

He'll be at home,

sleeping in bed,

which is exactly what

we should be doing.

I can't. I'm in a strange house,

I'm scared.

Can't this bloody thing

get brighter?

Because it's probably

run out of gas.

And this strange house?

This is our home now. Alright?

So you've just

got to get used to it.

I hate it when you're like this.

It's not much fun for me either,

thanks for being so considerate.

Yeah, same to you.

A**hole.

I saw some candles

in the kitchen.

Babe, will you get them

and put them in the windows?

Ed? Please.

If you want candles,

you go and get them.

- I'm not going on my own.

- I'm not going, full stop!

- I won't sleep.

- Yeah, well, I will.

Ed, will you stop being

such a selfish twat?

For f***'s sake.

No, you stay here.

I don't want to be here

on my own.

Just get back into the bed.

And stop being so stupid.

- I'm not being stupid.

- Yes, you are.

You're being bloody stupid.

This is our first night

in this house,

and this is how you're going on?

Jesus Christ.

Thank you, God.

Thanks for getting

the power back on, babe.

Ed?

Ed?

Ed?

Baby, this isn't funny anymore.

Ed, I know I've been

a pain in the ass.

Please don't do this to me.

Ed?

Sh*t.

She's gone out the window.

She can't have gone far.

What have you done to Ed?

What have you done

to my husband?

Come on!

Get that f***ing thing open!

Look out the back.

Where do you think you're going?

Get her in here

and get her f***ing bagged.

Anything?

Right, check the barn,

I'm going around the back.

- Alright.

- OK, man.

Come on. Come on. Come on!

- See anything?

- Nah.

So much for the big man's plan.

You go and take a look

in the woods.

- What about the big man?

- Let me worry about him.

OK, OK, OK, OK.

Foxy, you find anything?

Found a wee rag

with blood on it.

Keep looking.

I'll get the lads to set up

a perimeter.

Alright.

Ed.

Bastards.

Hello. Good girl.

Do you want to kiss her? Yeah?

Go on,

give her a f***ing smacker.

You don't want to kiss my baby?

Poor piggy.

Now she's gonna gnaw your

f***ing balls off, mate.

Baby, baby.

- Are you OK? Are you OK?

- Yes.

Did they hurt you?

It's OK, please just...

- My hands.

- OK.

They're too tight, Ed.

You've got to stay still.

Please, you'll cut your hands.

- Hurry.

- I'm trying to find something.

- Hurry.

- F***!

- OK, baby.

- OK, OK, OK.

- Stay still.

- OK.

Kenny, you've left the

bleeding lights on, you muppet.

Jesus!

F***ing b*tch! Come on!

You're gonna pay for that!

Come on! Come on!

Let's go.

The keys, the keys,

the Land Rover. He's got them.

Sh*t, Ed. They're coming.

We have to be quick.

We have to be quick.

F***. F***! I can't find them.

He has them on him,

just try the shelf.

- Sh*t, they're not here.

- Hurry.

Sarah.

- I can't walk.

- I've got you.

I've got you.

Go, go.

Come on.

Hey, hey! Help.

Let's go. Go.

- F***!

- Come on.

They're not far behind.

- I'm slowing us down.

- Come on.

We've just got to keep on going,

Sarah, please.

- I can't.

- Listen to me, come on.

Get down.

OK, OK, OK.

OK, this is what we're gonna do.

You're gonna stay here,

under cover.

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna run up on ahead,

and I'm gonna distract them.

- No...

- Listen, listen to me, please.

When you know it's safe,

you run up that way,

and keep on going

until you hit the dirt road.

You know the one we came in on?

At the end of that, there's the

main road. I'll meet you there.

OK, OK, OK. Keep still.

This way, we've got a chance.

I love you.

What are we gonna do

about Kenny?

Did you see his face?

They smashed it in.

Shh.

You hear that?

We need to make

these bastards pay.

We need to catch them first.

Now shut the f*** up.

Over here!

Come on, you fat bastard,

keep up.

Looky, looky.

I know you're out here.

Do you think I'm stupid?

Bloody bugger,

you should be in your bed.

You'll be in trouble

with your mammy.

Where do you think you're going?

You're gonna crawl back

across the border,
