Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:09,333 --> 00:00:11,085
? From the long, warm nights
with an ocean breeze
2
00:00:11,173 --> 00:00:14,370
? To the damp and to the rain
of London city
3
00:00:17,173 --> 00:00:19,129
? We come from the sun
to live in the cold
4
00:00:19,213 --> 00:00:22,808
? I miss my rum
I want my coconut tree
5
00:00:24,653 --> 00:00:26,564
? Don't scratch my soca
6
00:00:28,773 --> 00:00:30,570
? Till the party's over
7
00:00:33,293 --> 00:00:35,170
? Let's keep the music sweet
8
00:00:35,253 --> 00:00:38,529
? Wind up your waist and feel the beat
? Don't scratch my soca ?
9
00:00:41,373 --> 00:00:43,364
(Man on TV) Fried Chicken out in front,
10
00:00:43,453 --> 00:00:47,048
closely followed by Demon Run,
Mellow Fellow and Bombay Duck.
11
00:00:47,133 --> 00:00:50,921
- I'll have two chapattis, no chutney.
- Come on, Taj.
12
00:00:51,013 --> 00:00:53,686
- Go on!
- This tip of yours better come off.
13
00:00:53,773 --> 00:00:56,845
- I didn't say bet on it. I said...
- "It's a dead cert."
14
00:00:56,933 --> 00:00:59,367
It hasn't let you down yet.
It's out in front.
15
00:00:59,453 --> 00:01:02,126
...come up to the last bend
and Taj has fallen.
16
00:01:02,213 --> 00:01:05,330
(Shirley) Go, Bombay Duck!
17
00:01:05,413 --> 00:01:07,927
Go on! Come, Bombay!
18
00:01:08,013 --> 00:01:11,892
And as they come up to the line,
it's Bombay Duck from Mellow Fellow.
19
00:01:11,973 --> 00:01:13,850
Bombay Duck!
20
00:01:13,933 --> 00:01:16,811
Blasted Taj.
21
00:01:16,893 --> 00:01:20,727
How much did you win, darling,
sweetheart, light of my life?
22
00:01:20,813 --> 00:01:24,249
Nothing, dearest, sweetheart,
fruit of my dreams.
23
00:01:24,333 --> 00:01:28,121
- What you mean, nothing?
- That's what you gonna get, nothin'.
24
00:01:28,213 --> 00:01:30,090
Next.
25
00:01:30,173 --> 00:01:33,961
Yes, you Vincent. This is a barber shop,
not a public library.
26
00:01:34,053 --> 00:01:35,691
- You cut people's hair?
- Yes.
27
00:01:35,773 --> 00:01:38,333
I in the wrong place.
It's a betting shop I want.
28
00:01:38,413 --> 00:01:43,407
Look, just put your backside
on that seat.
29
00:01:43,493 --> 00:01:47,372
Honestly, Porkpie, Sandeep gave me the tip.
His old man owns the horse.
30
00:01:47,453 --> 00:01:51,048
- I thought they owned Mellow Fellow.
- No, his cousin owns him.
31
00:01:51,133 --> 00:01:53,249
Them have their finger in everything.
32
00:01:53,333 --> 00:01:56,291
- What do we have?
- What you talking about?
33
00:01:56,373 --> 00:01:59,251
When it comes to business in England,
black people don't have any.
34
00:01:59,333 --> 00:02:03,804
- West Indians don't have any?
- Sorry, Mr Wise Guy.
35
00:02:03,893 --> 00:02:06,168
What's so special about you then?
36
00:02:07,373 --> 00:02:10,445
Some Africans
are extremely good businessmen.
37
00:02:11,573 --> 00:02:15,043
Some Africans asking
for a punch on the nose.
38
00:02:15,133 --> 00:02:18,205
Look, I'm a West Indian businessman,
and so is Desmond.
39
00:02:18,293 --> 00:02:22,002
That's what I mean.
You don't have anything.
40
00:02:22,093 --> 00:02:25,051
Asians own corner shops,
takeaways, restaurants.
41
00:02:25,133 --> 00:02:28,603
- Race horses.
- Turks and Greeks own fish-and-chips.
42
00:02:28,693 --> 00:02:30,843
- And doner kebabs.
- Doner kebabs?
43
00:02:30,933 --> 00:02:34,846
You doner what's in them, do you?
44
00:02:34,933 --> 00:02:37,401
Apart from a barber shop in Peckham,
45
00:02:37,493 --> 00:02:40,565
and a few dodgy goods
off the back of a lorry,
46
00:02:40,653 --> 00:02:42,325
what business do we own?
47
00:02:42,413 --> 00:02:47,043
Judging from the papers, we have a
monopoly on muggings and street crime.
48
00:02:47,133 --> 00:02:49,124
What a negative conversation.
49
00:02:49,213 --> 00:02:52,011
We are excelling in all sorts of areas,
50
00:02:52,093 --> 00:02:56,769
and I don't mean just athletics
and pop music, and boxing.
51
00:02:56,853 --> 00:02:59,890
We now have Members of Parliament,
hmm?
52
00:02:59,973 --> 00:03:04,285
We're in education, hmm?
Local government, on the telly.
53
00:03:04,373 --> 00:03:06,887
Take our eldest son, Michael.
54
00:03:06,973 --> 00:03:10,010
I'd take him as far away as possible
and leave him there.
55
00:03:10,093 --> 00:03:13,051
I wouldn't have a bad word
said against him.
56
00:03:13,133 --> 00:03:15,931
He works very hard in that bank, hmm.
57
00:03:16,013 --> 00:03:20,450
Now, if you want to achieve,
you just have to go for it.
58
00:03:20,533 --> 00:03:22,763
He gone so far we never even see him.
59
00:03:22,853 --> 00:03:25,925
Well, I better... go for it.
60
00:03:26,013 --> 00:03:29,289
- What do you think you're going for?
- Sandeep's throat.
61
00:03:29,373 --> 00:03:32,968
Find out what happened to that
horse of his. You still want a lift, Shirl?
62
00:03:33,053 --> 00:03:37,012
- Yes, thanks.
- I suppose I better go for it too.
63
00:03:37,093 --> 00:03:39,812
- Thanks for the coffee, Shirl.
- Any time, Matthew.
64
00:03:39,893 --> 00:03:41,963
Oh, what's your lecture today?
65
00:03:42,053 --> 00:03:47,969
The Propensity To Consume Due To
The Changing Economic Infrastructure.
66
00:03:49,893 --> 00:03:52,248
Lee, can you drop me in the High Road?
67
00:03:52,333 --> 00:03:54,642
You name it, Matt,
and I'll drop you in it.
68
00:03:56,693 --> 00:03:58,923
- Hi.
- Take a seat.
69
00:04:01,533 --> 00:04:06,891
Boxing's not the same since Cassius Clay
changed his name to Muhammad Ali.
70
00:04:06,973 --> 00:04:09,885
What kind of a name is that?
That's not a boxing name.
71
00:04:09,973 --> 00:04:14,205
You're right, man. Him should have
a name like Sugar, Bummer, Rocky,
72
00:04:14,293 --> 00:04:16,488
Dark Destroyer, Ragamuffin.
73
00:04:16,573 --> 00:04:21,693
You see, that's why the Americans don't
take Frank Bruno as a serious contender.
74
00:04:21,773 --> 00:04:25,083
I mean, he should have
a name like Brutal Bruno.
75
00:04:25,173 --> 00:04:29,849
Crucial Bruno.
You-know-what-l-mean-Harry, Bruno.
76
00:04:29,933 --> 00:04:32,322
Why, that is a good point.
77
00:04:32,413 --> 00:04:34,085
Hi.
78
00:04:34,173 --> 00:04:37,290
Why, I hear about your wet look.
79
00:04:37,373 --> 00:04:40,524
- But that is wet.
- So wet you can bathe in it.
80
00:04:42,053 --> 00:04:45,170
Yes, it's my own product.
I'm here to see the proprietor.
81
00:04:45,253 --> 00:04:47,892
Nobody here by that name.
82
00:04:47,973 --> 00:04:50,043
That's me. What can I do you for?
83
00:04:50,133 --> 00:04:52,601
Darryl. Darryl Montefiore.
84
00:04:52,693 --> 00:04:55,082
Short and Curlies.
You must have heard of us.
85
00:04:55,173 --> 00:04:58,563
No. You ever hear
about Short and Curlies, Porkpie?
86
00:04:58,653 --> 00:05:02,441
- Yeah, Short and Curlies...
- Fastest-growing new chain in London.
87
00:05:02,533 --> 00:05:06,242
We have salons in the West End,
Victoria, North Kensington.
88
00:05:06,333 --> 00:05:09,803
- North Kensington? Where is that?
- Paddington.
89
00:05:09,893 --> 00:05:13,602
That's nice. You see, Porkpie,
a black businessman.
90
00:05:13,693 --> 00:05:16,082
My name is Desmond.
Pleased to meet you.
91
00:05:16,173 --> 00:05:18,926
This man's only young
and he's achieved all this.
92
00:05:19,013 --> 00:05:23,165
In the next ten years,
he'll be an international businessman.
93
00:05:23,253 --> 00:05:27,087
That's very nice of you, Des.
It's not been an easy road.
94
00:05:27,173 --> 00:05:30,802
But you have to make the most
of your opportunities and go for it.
95
00:05:30,893 --> 00:05:35,648
- Spoken like a true businessman.
- It takes one to know one, Des.
96
00:05:35,733 --> 00:05:38,008
Actually, the why reason I'm here, Des,
97
00:05:38,093 --> 00:05:40,482
- is that I want to buy you out.
- What?
98
00:05:40,573 --> 00:05:44,964
We've done market research and we think
Peckham could be a profitable area.
99
00:05:45,053 --> 00:05:49,524
It has a large black community,
who will appreciate our creative styles.
100
00:05:49,613 --> 00:05:52,411
You've been a barber here
for more than 20 years.
101
00:05:52,493 --> 00:05:55,963
So rather than waste time and money
setting up a rival salon,
102
00:05:56,053 --> 00:05:57,850
we'd like to buy you out.
103
00:05:57,933 --> 00:06:01,130
There's a great potential here
for an entrepreneur.
104
00:06:01,213 --> 00:06:04,011
So rather than hammer you
with competition,
105
00:06:04,093 --> 00:06:07,369
we're going to give you a way out.
So what do you think, Des?
106
00:06:07,453 --> 00:06:10,286
- You know what I think, Darryl?
- Tell me, Des.
107
00:06:10,373 --> 00:06:12,887
I think you ought to
get out of my shop now.
108
00:06:12,973 --> 00:06:17,012
We can offer you a good price.
Think about it and give me a ring.
109
00:06:17,093 --> 00:06:19,129
- Or I'll come back next Friday.
- Out!
110
00:06:19,213 --> 00:06:20,931
- So Friday, about 3:00?
- Out!
111
00:06:21,013 --> 00:06:23,083
Have a nice day.
112
00:06:24,013 --> 00:06:26,652
Damn cheek.
113
00:06:26,733 --> 00:06:28,689
- You know what I think?
- What?
114
00:06:28,773 --> 00:06:31,003
You should ask
how much he was offering.
115
00:06:31,093 --> 00:06:34,449
- Who was that?
- He calls himself Darryl Montefiore.
116
00:06:34,533 --> 00:06:37,843
- Short and Curlies. I know them.
- What's wrong with that?
117
00:06:37,933 --> 00:06:42,051
What's wrong is that slippery
wet-look man want to buy our shop.
118
00:06:42,133 --> 00:06:44,772
- Filofax man.
- What's a Filofax man?
119
00:06:44,853 --> 00:06:48,971
A wally who walks around with Filofaxes
to show how important they are.
120
00:06:49,053 --> 00:06:51,613
I better tell Matthew
about the Filofaxes.
121
00:06:51,693 --> 00:06:54,526
He can't buy our shop.
You didn't say yes, did you?
122
00:06:54,613 --> 00:06:56,649
He didn't even let him make an offer.
123
00:06:56,733 --> 00:07:01,409
Good for you. No one will take this off us.
We don't want a wet-look blow-dry clip joint.
124
00:07:01,493 --> 00:07:04,246
- This is more than a barber shop.
- It is?
125
00:07:04,333 --> 00:07:06,801
- This is a community centre.
- Is it?
126
00:07:06,893 --> 00:07:09,248
A confessional, a drop-in.
127
00:07:09,333 --> 00:07:12,530
Yeah, this is where people
serve tea and toast, watch TV
128
00:07:12,613 --> 00:07:15,764
- and engage in social intercourse.
- Not in my shop.
129
00:07:15,853 --> 00:07:18,606
Hardly anybody come here
to cut their hair.
130
00:07:18,693 --> 00:07:23,209
- I would take the money.
- Don't give in to ruthless capitalists.
131
00:07:23,293 --> 00:07:25,727
It's a hairdressing chain,
out to scalp you.
132
00:07:25,813 --> 00:07:28,247
Time to mobilise.
We'll start a campaign.
133
00:07:28,333 --> 00:07:31,609
- We'll show Desmond's is needed.
- Support the little man.
134
00:07:31,693 --> 00:07:34,924
- Oh, sorry, Mr Ambrose.
- Leave it to us, Dad.
135
00:07:35,013 --> 00:07:38,528
You see, Porkpie? Who said
black people aren't enterprising?
136
00:07:38,613 --> 00:07:43,448
I better go to Short and Curlies to get
a haircut. I'm not getting it here.
137
00:07:43,533 --> 00:07:46,491
Sit down your ass.
138
00:07:55,253 --> 00:07:57,164
What are you looking at?
139
00:07:57,253 --> 00:07:59,608
You just gonna stand there?
140
00:08:00,933 --> 00:08:04,369
Twenty-six years running
your own shop is not a bad innings.
141
00:08:11,093 --> 00:08:14,881
With the money you'd get, you could
build your own house back home.
142
00:08:16,293 --> 00:08:19,808
What are you gonna do -
stand and fight or take the money and run?
143
00:08:19,893 --> 00:08:22,805
Take the money and run.
And I go run with you.
144
00:08:22,893 --> 00:08:24,849
Oh, shut up, Porkpie.
145
00:08:25,853 --> 00:08:28,606
Look at you sweeping the floor.
146
00:08:28,693 --> 00:08:31,161
You gonna do this all your life?
147
00:08:32,653 --> 00:08:36,965
Remember when we used to sit
on the sea wall, dreaming of England?
148
00:08:39,733 --> 00:08:42,372
We thought we'd be the kings of Jazz.
149
00:08:43,573 --> 00:08:47,282
We were just Georgetown Dreamers.
150
00:08:47,373 --> 00:08:50,968
Sweetsticks, Jazzy Beat, Porkpie.
151
00:08:51,053 --> 00:08:54,762
Shirley's father said she was mad
to come up here with you.
152
00:08:54,853 --> 00:09:00,530
But you always said you will make
your fortune and prove him wrong.
153
00:09:00,613 --> 00:09:02,524
Remember?
154
00:09:02,613 --> 00:09:06,128
Right. There's no harm
in finding out what he's offering.
155
00:09:07,213 --> 00:09:15,213
Ripped By mstoll
156
00:09:17,533 --> 00:09:20,206
Porkpie, you haven't got
a home to go to?
157
00:09:20,293 --> 00:09:21,692
Nope.
158
00:09:23,533 --> 00:09:25,922
All right. I going.
159
00:09:27,133 --> 00:09:29,328
- Who was that you're calling?
- Nobody.
160
00:09:29,413 --> 00:09:32,530
- The Short and Curlies man, wasn't it?
- I just...
161
00:09:32,613 --> 00:09:34,763
How many times I have to tell you? No!
162
00:09:34,853 --> 00:09:37,572
It might be a good offer.
We may not get another.
163
00:09:37,653 --> 00:09:39,689
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
164
00:09:39,773 --> 00:09:43,004
This is our shop, Desmond, hmm?
165
00:09:43,093 --> 00:09:47,245
It was a long, hard fight
for us to buy this shop, remember?
166
00:09:47,333 --> 00:09:49,608
We scrimp and save.
167
00:09:49,693 --> 00:09:54,767
If you think some little upstart can
waltz in here, wave a chequebook around
168
00:09:54,853 --> 00:09:58,209
and take away our shop
without us even batting an eye,
169
00:09:58,293 --> 00:10:00,887
then you got another think coming.
170
00:10:00,973 --> 00:10:03,407
I married a fighter, not a coward.
171
00:10:03,493 --> 00:10:06,326
- Who you calling a coward?
- You.
172
00:10:06,413 --> 00:10:08,722
Right.
173
00:10:08,813 --> 00:10:11,407
I gonna fight them.
174
00:10:11,493 --> 00:10:14,883
Nobody will come here
and take away my shop. This is my shop.
175
00:10:14,973 --> 00:10:17,089
- Our shop.
- These are my chairs.
176
00:10:17,173 --> 00:10:19,607
- Our chairs.
- Those are my plastic flowers.
177
00:10:20,653 --> 00:10:22,609
Yes.
178
00:10:24,453 --> 00:10:26,921
Oh, I don't know.
How we gonna fight them?
179
00:10:27,013 --> 00:10:31,564
Listen. Tomorrow morning, I'll make you
an appointment with the bank manager.
180
00:10:31,653 --> 00:10:33,644
Talk about getting a loan, hmm?
181
00:10:33,733 --> 00:10:36,964
- We'll do the place up a bit.
- Which bit?
182
00:10:37,053 --> 00:10:40,329
Well, we'll give it a new coat of paint,
get some new chairs,
183
00:10:40,413 --> 00:10:42,369
get rid of the plastic flowers.
184
00:10:42,453 --> 00:10:46,890
And it would be like a new shop,
a new beginning for us. Hmm?
185
00:10:46,973 --> 00:10:51,808
Hmm. And to start the ball rolling,
I bought us a little something.
186
00:10:51,893 --> 00:10:55,010
Courtesy of Bombay Duck.
187
00:11:01,693 --> 00:11:03,251
? Come on, guys, you can't do that
188
00:11:03,333 --> 00:11:05,927
? You can't have a snog
in the middle of my rap
189
00:11:06,013 --> 00:11:07,765
? Mum and Dad should have
more discretion
190
00:11:07,853 --> 00:11:09,809
? Behind closed doors
for a heavy necking session
191
00:11:09,893 --> 00:11:11,963
? Don't do it in public,
that's what you said
192
00:11:12,053 --> 00:11:14,362
? The best place to do it
is behind the bike shed ?
193
00:11:20,813 --> 00:11:22,485
? This is my shop, we bought it
194
00:11:22,573 --> 00:11:25,133
? So we can kiss anywhere we like in it ?
195
00:11:29,173 --> 00:11:32,085
- You're wicked, Dad.
- Me know.
196
00:11:32,173 --> 00:11:34,209
I'll get some glasses ready.
197
00:11:40,853 --> 00:11:43,651
- (Shirley) Desmond!
- All right, I coming.
198
00:11:45,853 --> 00:11:48,572
- (Rings bell)
- Yes, can I help you?
199
00:11:48,653 --> 00:11:52,851
I hope so. My name is Mr Ambrose.
I have an appointment to see the manager.
200
00:11:52,933 --> 00:11:54,889
What is it concerning?
201
00:11:57,853 --> 00:12:00,287
- A loan.
- Right, sir.
202
00:12:00,373 --> 00:12:01,567
A loan.
203
00:12:01,653 --> 00:12:06,329
Er... yes. I'm afraid he's busy.
Your appointment is with his assistant.
204
00:12:06,413 --> 00:12:09,803
I'll talk to anybody
as long as they'll give me...
205
00:12:09,893 --> 00:12:11,531
a loan.
206
00:12:11,613 --> 00:12:14,844
- Right this way, sir.
- Excuse me, please.
207
00:12:20,213 --> 00:12:23,171
- He'll be with you in a minute.
- Thank you very much.
208
00:12:28,813 --> 00:12:31,407
Good morning, Mr Ambrose.
209
00:12:31,493 --> 00:12:34,565
- You?
- Take a seat, Father.
210
00:12:34,653 --> 00:12:38,282
Well, after Finchley Road,
they moved me here.
211
00:12:38,373 --> 00:12:42,366
Next stop, deputy manager,
then who knows? One day, manager.
212
00:12:42,453 --> 00:12:45,604
- So how long have you been here?
- Three weeks and two days.
213
00:12:46,653 --> 00:12:50,168
- You've never even been to see us.
- I've been busy.
214
00:12:50,253 --> 00:12:53,643
I left messages on your stupid machine.
You never call me back.
215
00:12:53,733 --> 00:12:57,123
- You've never left a message.
- Well, your mother has.
216
00:12:57,213 --> 00:13:00,603
What is this world coming to
when you got to talk to a machine
217
00:13:00,693 --> 00:13:03,253
before your son talks to you?
218
00:13:04,093 --> 00:13:06,561
Whenever I talk to you,
we end up arguing.
219
00:13:06,653 --> 00:13:10,692
You know why! You always get on your
high horse with your airs and graces.
220
00:13:10,773 --> 00:13:13,526
Like you was born
with a silver spoon in your mouth!
221
00:13:13,613 --> 00:13:18,562
- But, Father...
- What is all this la-di-da Father.
222
00:13:18,653 --> 00:13:21,486
Why you got scared of calling me
Dad or Pops or what?
223
00:13:21,573 --> 00:13:25,122
- What's wrong with "Father"?
- Well, it-it don't sound right.
224
00:13:26,693 --> 00:13:29,491
You ask why I haven't been round.
Because of you.
225
00:13:29,573 --> 00:13:32,690
What about me? You ashamed of me?
You been ashamed of me.
226
00:13:32,773 --> 00:13:35,446
- I'm not.
- That's why you don't come round.
227
00:13:35,533 --> 00:13:37,683
I'm 28, I've got my own life to lead.
228
00:13:37,773 --> 00:13:40,765
It could lead to our door
to see your mother.
229
00:13:40,853 --> 00:13:42,445
Look, Father... Come in!
230
00:13:42,533 --> 00:13:45,331
- Everything all right?
- Yes!
231
00:13:45,413 --> 00:13:47,449
Yes, thank you, Mandy. Erm...
232
00:13:47,533 --> 00:13:50,206
Interest rates,
he thinks they are a bit steep.
233
00:13:50,293 --> 00:13:54,081
- Would you like me to get the manager?
- No, he's doing a good job.
234
00:13:54,173 --> 00:13:57,165
Yes, we seem
to be reaching an agreement.
235
00:14:01,613 --> 00:14:04,685
Right. Let's just get this straight.
236
00:14:04,773 --> 00:14:09,369
Just because I'm black, it doesn't mean
I can't appreciate the finer things in life.
237
00:14:09,453 --> 00:14:14,607
Just because I'm black, it doesn't mean
I can't speak the Queen's English.
238
00:14:14,693 --> 00:14:18,322
It wouldn't go down well if someone
came to ask for a loan and I said,
239
00:14:18,413 --> 00:14:22,850
"Mya can't give ya a loan
because I man feel he's an idiot."
240
00:14:27,653 --> 00:14:32,773
You don't realise times are changing
and you're not changing with them.
241
00:14:32,853 --> 00:14:35,083
A war.
242
00:14:36,253 --> 00:14:39,689
Now... You want a loan.
243
00:14:39,773 --> 00:14:43,243
- I didn't come here for a checkup.
- Don't start.
244
00:14:43,333 --> 00:14:45,972
And what do you require
the loan for, Mr Ambrose?
245
00:14:47,053 --> 00:14:50,966
I require the loan... Look, this is
stupid, man. Just give me the money.
246
00:14:51,053 --> 00:14:53,408
Look, I'm sorry.
247
00:14:53,493 --> 00:14:56,053
- But there are formalities.
- Formalities?
248
00:14:56,133 --> 00:15:00,729
Why you can't treat me like your father,
not somebody you don't know from Adam?
249
00:15:00,813 --> 00:15:02,565
OK. We'll go again.
250
00:15:02,653 --> 00:15:05,611
Father, why do you require a loan?
251
00:15:05,693 --> 00:15:08,844
Son, I require a loan to do up the shop.
252
00:15:09,453 --> 00:15:11,603
Ah. What brought this on?
253
00:15:11,693 --> 00:15:16,483
Well, we've been forced in it
by the Short and Curlies.
254
00:15:16,573 --> 00:15:20,532
- The wet-look people.
- Yes, I know, I get my hair cut there.
255
00:15:20,613 --> 00:15:22,490
Not very well.
256
00:15:22,573 --> 00:15:25,724
They wanna buy us out.
Or I'll be forced into competition.
257
00:15:25,813 --> 00:15:28,122
So your mother thinks
we should get a loan.
258
00:15:28,213 --> 00:15:30,727
What exactly are you going to do
with the loan?
259
00:15:30,813 --> 00:15:34,362
We're gonna do up the place a bit,
get a few new customers.
260
00:15:34,453 --> 00:15:37,923
She want me
to get some new plastic flowers.
261
00:15:38,013 --> 00:15:39,571
Dad...
262
00:15:39,653 --> 00:15:42,690
I think you and I need to have a talk.
263
00:15:42,773 --> 00:15:45,241
- What are we doing now?
- No, a proper talk.
264
00:15:45,333 --> 00:15:48,689
I better come round to the shop
sometime. Let me see.
265
00:15:50,413 --> 00:15:53,246
Er... No, I can't make tonight.
Squash night.
266
00:15:54,813 --> 00:15:58,089
- How about tomorrow?
- In the gym tomorrow.
267
00:15:58,173 --> 00:16:00,687
And then I'm having dinner
with the manager.
268
00:16:00,773 --> 00:16:03,128
Hmm. It's very difficult.
269
00:16:03,213 --> 00:16:06,489
I'll tell you what.
I'll come round tonight after my game.
270
00:16:06,573 --> 00:16:10,122
Let's see now.
Yeah. Let's say 7:30.
271
00:16:10,213 --> 00:16:13,330
- If you say so.
- OK then.
272
00:16:13,413 --> 00:16:17,042
7:30 it is then, Mr Ambrose.
Ah, Mr Patel.
273
00:16:17,133 --> 00:16:20,125
If you come in later,
would you like to stay for supper?
274
00:16:20,213 --> 00:16:23,489
I know you miss
your mother fish soup and bakes.
275
00:16:23,573 --> 00:16:26,804
Not now, please.
Shall we talk about it later, Mr Ambrose?
276
00:16:26,893 --> 00:16:29,248
Ravi, nice to see you.
277
00:16:29,333 --> 00:16:32,450
You come for a loan?
Don't worry. Me son will fix it up.
278
00:16:32,533 --> 00:16:37,812
He is the assistant to the assistant
to the assistant manager.
279
00:16:41,213 --> 00:16:43,443
What you think? I look all right?
280
00:16:43,533 --> 00:16:46,605
You look good.
What's all the fuss? It's only Michael.
281
00:16:46,693 --> 00:16:51,050
- It's not every day he comes to visit.
- Thank God for that.
282
00:16:51,133 --> 00:16:52,202
Desmond.
283
00:16:52,293 --> 00:16:56,332
I mean, it come to a pretty pass when
you got to ask your own son for a loan.
284
00:16:56,413 --> 00:16:59,405
- That's what banks are for.
- I gave him pocket money.
285
00:16:59,493 --> 00:17:02,166
Now it feels as if
I asking him for pocket money.
286
00:17:02,253 --> 00:17:04,926
Yeah, but the bank's got bigger pockets
than you.
287
00:17:05,013 --> 00:17:06,969
- They're vaults.
- I know that.
288
00:17:07,053 --> 00:17:10,090
Come on. We need your slogan
for our campaign.
289
00:17:10,173 --> 00:17:12,129
All right. How about...
290
00:17:12,213 --> 00:17:16,411
"If you want to look like a girlie,
go to Short and Curly"?
291
00:17:17,973 --> 00:17:19,850
- Nah.
- Nah.
292
00:17:19,933 --> 00:17:23,209
How about...
? Short and Curly, too girlie, girlie"? ?
293
00:17:23,293 --> 00:17:26,968
? If you want your hair cut,
come to Desmond and Shirley ?
294
00:17:27,053 --> 00:17:29,772
- On a badge?
- That's wicked, Mum.
295
00:17:29,853 --> 00:17:32,413
Wicked? Your mum isn't wicked.
296
00:17:33,933 --> 00:17:37,642
Why you can't talk proper
instead of all this hard, murder
297
00:17:37,733 --> 00:17:40,531
crispy fresh nonsense?
298
00:17:40,613 --> 00:17:44,083
- Because that's soft, that's why.
- Hard isn't soft.
299
00:17:44,173 --> 00:17:46,892
And where does murder come into it?
300
00:17:46,973 --> 00:17:50,124
Your father right.
You really ought to talk properly.
301
00:17:50,213 --> 00:17:54,001
- Like Michael, you mean?
- I wouldn't go as far as that.
302
00:17:54,093 --> 00:17:57,529
I put two beers in the fridge for Michael
and now is only one.
303
00:17:57,613 --> 00:18:00,889
Michael only got one mouth.
304
00:18:01,053 --> 00:18:03,044
Hello.
305
00:18:03,133 --> 00:18:04,851
Michael!
306
00:18:04,933 --> 00:18:08,562
Look, everybody.
Michael come to visit.
307
00:18:08,653 --> 00:18:11,565
Well, as I invited him, Shirley...
308
00:18:11,653 --> 00:18:14,531
Oh! So, Michael,
let me look at you good.
309
00:18:14,613 --> 00:18:18,049
Wait. You can't remember
what your own son look like?
310
00:18:18,133 --> 00:18:21,808
If he came round more often to visit,
his mother wouldn't forget.
311
00:18:21,893 --> 00:18:23,849
- I've been busy.
- Busy?
312
00:18:23,933 --> 00:18:28,484
Busy? I always found the time
to look after you when you were young.
313
00:18:28,573 --> 00:18:30,484
Looking after three...
314
00:18:30,573 --> 00:18:32,643
four children.
315
00:18:32,733 --> 00:18:35,805
I always found time.
So don't you talk to me about busy.
316
00:18:35,893 --> 00:18:37,406
Shame, boy.
317
00:18:37,493 --> 00:18:40,166
You look like you lose weight.
318
00:18:40,253 --> 00:18:43,404
- You sure you've been eating properly?
- Of course I am.
319
00:18:43,493 --> 00:18:48,328
Now that you're near, why don't you come
round after work, get some proper food?
320
00:18:48,413 --> 00:18:51,086
- I'm OK, Mother.
- "I'm OK, Mother!"
321
00:18:52,973 --> 00:18:57,012
- Same old childish Gloria.
- Same plummy Michael. How's Thatcher?
322
00:18:57,093 --> 00:19:00,051
One big happy family.
323
00:19:00,133 --> 00:19:02,966
- OK, shall we have our discussion?
- Why not?
324
00:19:03,053 --> 00:19:08,127
Michael, just a little something
to keep you going.
325
00:19:08,213 --> 00:19:11,330
Dinner's a bit late.
It will be five minutes.
326
00:19:22,373 --> 00:19:26,571
Well, look, Dad,
we've got to talk seriously.
327
00:19:26,653 --> 00:19:29,042
If you're thinking
about taking out a loan,
328
00:19:29,133 --> 00:19:32,170
you got to think
about how you'll pay back the interest.
329
00:19:32,253 --> 00:19:35,290
- And the money you've borrowed.
- What is this?
330
00:19:35,373 --> 00:19:37,887
You gonna be a teacher
when you grow up?
331
00:19:37,973 --> 00:19:41,283
You don't do enough business.
How will you make repayments?
332
00:19:41,373 --> 00:19:45,207
Hear that, Shirley? Your son say
we don't do any business here.
333
00:19:45,293 --> 00:19:48,729
That's what the campaign's for,
Mr Buppie. To drum up trade.
334
00:19:48,813 --> 00:19:51,964
How about this one...
"I've had it off at Desmond's"?
335
00:19:52,053 --> 00:19:54,613
- Sean!
- I thought it was a good idea.
336
00:19:55,453 --> 00:19:58,411
So, Michael, we can't get this loan?
337
00:19:58,493 --> 00:20:03,283
It's not in my power. My boss won't
consider this shop a good prospect.
338
00:20:03,373 --> 00:20:06,285
- That's it then. The end of the line.
- What?
339
00:20:06,373 --> 00:20:09,445
- We must find out what's on offer.
- No.
340
00:20:09,533 --> 00:20:13,162
- I'm sorry, Mother.
- When's this Montefiore geezer coming?
341
00:20:13,253 --> 00:20:15,244
- Next Friday.
- Right.
342
00:20:16,533 --> 00:20:19,843
They're not free. I'm talking about
three badges for a pound, come on.
343
00:20:19,933 --> 00:20:23,687
- Dad told me to rustle up customers.
- I think it's still too late.
344
00:20:23,773 --> 00:20:24,762
Rubbish.
345
00:20:24,853 --> 00:20:27,890
It's my seat, you know, Vincent.
Nobody sit on my seat.
346
00:20:28,453 --> 00:20:31,763
- Hello, Mum. Hello, Dad.
- What you doing out of school?
347
00:20:31,853 --> 00:20:32,922
Indeed.
348
00:20:33,013 --> 00:20:36,892
The headmaster picked out the boys
with the longest hair to get it cut.
349
00:20:36,973 --> 00:20:38,929
Oh, great.
350
00:20:40,053 --> 00:20:42,362
Why you selling our badges?
They're free.
351
00:20:42,453 --> 00:20:45,126
Nothing's free in England, Seanie boy.
352
00:20:45,213 --> 00:20:47,852
I'll cut you in for 30%, all right?
353
00:20:47,933 --> 00:20:51,403
- We made them at school, though.
- 50%, yeah?
354
00:20:51,493 --> 00:20:53,882
Good, lovely.
355
00:20:53,973 --> 00:20:57,522
We've given up an important lecture
to come here for a haircut.
356
00:20:57,613 --> 00:21:01,208
Aw, thank you, Matthew.
And what was the lecture today?
357
00:21:01,293 --> 00:21:06,048
Is Dialectic Materialism
A Strategy Of Social Revolution?
358
00:21:08,173 --> 00:21:11,165
No wonder they'd rather get
their hair cut, Matthew.
359
00:21:11,253 --> 00:21:13,813
Doesn't our business
look worth supporting?
360
00:21:13,893 --> 00:21:18,011
Yes, I'm impressed.
I had no idea.
361
00:21:18,093 --> 00:21:19,811
- Dad?
- What?
362
00:21:21,933 --> 00:21:26,085
What would you say
if I said I could get my hands on �3,000?
363
00:21:26,173 --> 00:21:29,290
You haven't been thieving money
from the bank, have you?
364
00:21:30,373 --> 00:21:33,524
No. But I've been thinking. And...
365
00:21:33,613 --> 00:21:36,969
Well, I've got a bit of capital.
I think perhaps I was wr...
366
00:21:37,053 --> 00:21:39,362
Perhaps we can make something
out of the shop.
367
00:21:39,453 --> 00:21:41,523
"We"? Who is "we"?
368
00:21:41,613 --> 00:21:44,207
You, me and Mother.
369
00:21:44,293 --> 00:21:47,922
I'll be one of the partners
in exchange for my capital investment.
370
00:21:48,013 --> 00:21:50,732
Did you hear that, Shirley?
I asked him for a loan.
371
00:21:50,813 --> 00:21:54,044
Now he planning to take over my shop.
372
00:21:54,133 --> 00:21:56,169
I'm not trying to take over anything.
373
00:21:56,253 --> 00:21:59,609
But with my money,
you'll get the loan without the interest.
374
00:21:59,693 --> 00:22:01,649
We keep the business in the family.
375
00:22:01,733 --> 00:22:06,090
- Like a sleeping partner?
- Uh-uh, uh-uh. A very wide-awake one.
376
00:22:06,173 --> 00:22:09,802
Are you trying to tell me
I need you to run my shop for me?
377
00:22:09,893 --> 00:22:12,965
- With you, not for you.
- Well, I think it's a good idea.
378
00:22:13,053 --> 00:22:15,248
It's another game Michael wants to win.
379
00:22:15,333 --> 00:22:19,565
It's a good idea if the shop gets done up.
This decor's getting embarrassing.
380
00:22:20,133 --> 00:22:21,851
Hi.
381
00:22:23,013 --> 00:22:24,969
All right, babes?
382
00:22:29,093 --> 00:22:31,288
Hello, Des.
You ready to talk business?
383
00:22:31,373 --> 00:22:32,488
Yeah.
384
00:22:32,573 --> 00:22:35,041
And?
385
00:22:35,133 --> 00:22:37,442
Let's talk business.
386
00:22:37,533 --> 00:22:41,606
Look around you.
This is the Peckham community.
387
00:22:41,693 --> 00:22:46,926
I've been running this shop for 20 years
and with my son, it'll be another 20.
388
00:22:47,013 --> 00:22:51,370
So if it's competition you want,
it's competition you're going to get.
389
00:22:51,453 --> 00:22:55,128
And I'll tell you something,
Mr Short and Curlies,
390
00:22:55,213 --> 00:22:59,126
- you ain't going to win.
- (Cheering)
391
00:23:00,253 --> 00:23:03,086
Well, I think that's it.
Don't you, Darryl?
392
00:23:04,373 --> 00:23:07,126
OK. I'll see you
for your next haircut then.
393
00:23:07,213 --> 00:23:10,444
- (Michael) Uh-uh.
- I don't think so.
394
00:23:11,253 --> 00:23:12,447
OK.
395
00:23:12,533 --> 00:23:14,728
- Oh, erm... Darryl.
- Yeah?
396
00:23:14,813 --> 00:23:17,008
- One more thing.
- What?
397
00:23:17,093 --> 00:23:19,732
Erm... how much were you going to offer?33598
