1
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:15,200
Stick with me Eileen,
2
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:16,680
I'm going to be a millionaire.
3
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:18,760
Now imagine
getting in on the ground floor,
4
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:20,360
with somebody
who's going to change
5
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:21,840
the face of business in Perth.
6
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:23,040
You Sir, are you going to be
7
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:24,360
one of the
lucky one's here today?
8
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:25,880
It's all above board isn't it?
9
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,080
Eileen believe me,
It is all legit.
10
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,200
I got payments due
but nothing I can't handle.
11
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:32,760
Make them wait.
Better in your hand than theirs.
12
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:34,800
You're
kissing a woman in public.
13
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:35,960
You can't
leave me Eileen.
14
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:37,280
Together we make sense.
15
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,240
-For the kids, for business.
16
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,160
-Ah, for business.
-For us, for us.
17
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:43,200
You're a wealthy man.
18
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,080
You could no doubt
have your pick of women.
19
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,320
-So why me?
-The way you cross the room,
20
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,400
-you glide.
- She's the air-hostess
21
00:00:49,480 --> 00:00:50,680
on our jet.
22
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:52,840
You flaunt
her in front of me,
23
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,360
and then you
act like it’s nothing!
24
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,520
Then perhaps you should think
about making it up with her.
25
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,320
- I do love you.
-Do you?
26
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,560
I will be a better husband.
I promise.
27
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,960
With the Santos
Oil and Gas deal now complete
28
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:04,400
we're in really good shape
29
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,760
but this is the time
to expand into new areas.
30
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,600
Whoever wins the America's Cup
31
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:10,280
can write their own future.
32
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,720
We're not just going
to win the America's Cup,
33
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,080
we're going
to win it by bloody miles.
34
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,320
We've extended Alan a lot
of credit on this dream of his.
35
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:19,880
His debt it’s mounting.
36
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:21,440
- Do you want to win?
37
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:23,680
-Well let's do it.
38
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,800
How did it come to this?
39
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,080
Me, Alan Bond.
40
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:28,920
Multi-millionaire.
41
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,040
Being chased by
some curse in a cursed ute
42
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,360
-through the suburbs of Perth.
43
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:36,280
Well...
44
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,520
Not everyone gets
the keys to the kingdom.
45
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:52,920
But if you do,
46
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,320
then you need
to act like a king.
47
00:03:10,640 --> 00:03:11,960
We were Australian royalty
48
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,360
and every
royal family has a princess.
49
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,160
The
reception was an extravaganza.
50
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:19,360
400 guests,
51
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,760
a who's who
of Perth's movers and shakers
52
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,000
were treated
to a night out few will forget.
53
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:25,400
- Darling
54
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:30,280
- Thank you.
55
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:32,400
Where was I?
56
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:33,840
Oh it was incredible.
57
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,760
We stayed in these
authentic Arabian tents.
58
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:37,960
-Next to us was Elizabeth Taylor
-Ah great!
59
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,760
-and her eyes really are violet.
-Really?
60
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,880
It's true my son has been
awarded the order of Australia.
61
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,120
Mind you given the
amount of champagne we drunk
62
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,520
they were more
a shade of scarlet.
63
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,120
What is she saying now?
64
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:52,880
-Good on you love.
65
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:54,960
This is what winning
looks like and they knew it.
66
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:57,720
Now the business elite
were flying into my town
67
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,160
to do business with me.
68
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:01,640
Evening.
69
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:05,880
Oh, here's trouble.
70
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:07,600
-Laurie.
-Hello.
71
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:08,680
-Brian.
-Alan.
72
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,440
-Did you see my new "Monet"?
73
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,080
-It's a "Manet".
-"Monet", "Manet",
74
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:14,840
It's a French
Impressionist and I own it.
75
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:16,640
Laurie Connell.
76
00:04:16,840 --> 00:04:18,040
A mongrel dog.
77
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,800
Wish I had of put him down here
before he started biting people.
78
00:04:21,280 --> 00:04:23,120
You will have
to excuse me fellas.
79
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,000
got the
American President on the line.
80
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,320
Ronald Regan wants my advice
81
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,040
on how to win
the America's Cup back.
82
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,360
-Mr. Connell.
-Oh hello, how are you?
83
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:34,440
Premiere.
84
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,320
-There you go Miss Bliss.
-Thank you.
85
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,760
-Let's give her some privacy.
-Thanks.
86
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,960
Don't you have
200 guests to entertain?
87
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:55,280
A bunch of drunk nobodies
88
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:56,640
all wanting to suck up to me.
89
00:04:57,880 --> 00:04:59,120
Well I wish
I was there with you.
90
00:04:59,280 --> 00:05:00,800
Yeah. Me too.
91
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,840
Well, listen I better
get back to my friends.
92
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,040
What friends?
93
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,000
I do have some, Alan.
94
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:08,880
Here you are!
95
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:10,920
Come on Alan,
you should be mingling.
96
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,880
Whatever
business it is, it can wait.
97
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,040
I will just be a minute love,
I've got Hong Kong on the line.
98
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:16,720
Yeah,
99
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:17,800
go ahead.
100
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,040
So sorry Hong Kong,
you'll understand.
101
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:21,840
We're celebrating
our daughter's wedding.
102
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,520
Yes,
can you call back another time?
103
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,480
- Zaijian.
104
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:28,560
Come on!
105
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,320
Have you got your speech ready?
106
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,720
-No business talk alright?
-Alright, Babe.
107
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,080
Hello everyone.
108
00:05:58,320 --> 00:05:59,840
Thank you for
coming here tonight.
109
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,160
It is my duty now to say a few
words about my gorgeous princess
110
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,480
Now I know she can
jump a horse like the wind
111
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,000
but she'll still
take a little taming.
112
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,320
-Good one, Dad.
113
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,520
We are of course very pleased to
114
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,480
welcome, Armand into the family.
115
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,080
Even though he is from New York,
116
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,920
we don't hold that against him.
117
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:22,560
A first-rate show-jumper
118
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:23,960
and a doctor,
119
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,120
he knows
the value of a good education
120
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,840
and so it is with great
pride that I announce tonight
121
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:31,640
I will be building
122
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,600
Australia's first
private university,
123
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,280
Bond University.
124
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,200
It will be my legacy.
125
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:42,520
In the words of Napoleon,
126
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:44,880
"Greatness be nothing,
127
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:46,760
unless it be lasting".
128
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,200
But of course
I owe all the credit to Eileen.
129
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,400
Put up with me
for all these years
130
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,440
and we're still
going strong, Darling.
131
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,160
So now,
I'd like you to raise a glass
132
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,400
to Susanne and Armand.
133
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,360
Susanne and Armand.
134
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:35,880
People often say,
135
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,640
"be careful what you wish for".
136
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:39,440
I never had that problem.
137
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,040
I always wanted more
138
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,680
and Australia started
to seem very small to me.
139
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,280
Isn't this something, Alan?
140
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,200
Oh, thank you. Mm.
141
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:04,400
You're not meant to take two.
142
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:05,760
Oh, who says?
143
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,080
The lords and ladies.
144
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,560
-I was getting one for the queen
145
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,600
Be all gone
by the time she arrives.
146
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,760
I thought you
didn't care about royalty.
147
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:16,880
I don't.
148
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:18,360
How do I look?
149
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:19,480
Do you reckon she'll like me?
150
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,480
You can charm anyone, Alan.
151
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,280
Even the Queen of England.
152
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,360
Not with that accent.
153
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,280
Congratulations
154
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:29,720
on winning with
the America's cup.
155
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:30,880
Ah, thanks mate.
156
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,040
And cheating the way
you did with that winged keel.
157
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:34,800
I was very impressed with that.
158
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,080
-We did not cheat.
-Alan?
159
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,640
That's not what the
Duke of Gloucester just told me.
160
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:41,840
He said the whole
thing was a sham.
161
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,080
And Sir Angus over
there was rabbiting on about
162
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,240
how the Dutch designed
that keel for heaven's sake.
163
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,080
Well I can assure you
that's not what happened.
164
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:51,560
Well,
everyone's talking about it.
165
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,400
I am actually rather surprised
that you're invited at all.
166
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,000
You know that the queen
secretly hates Australians.
167
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,320
It's the voice, it grates.
168
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,800
-Actually Alan was born England.
-And all that talk of republic.
169
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,480
I mean she just
thinks you're ungrateful.
170
00:09:03,560 --> 00:09:06,560
Alright you listen to me you
pompous, stuck up curse,
171
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,240
Don't you talk to me like that.
172
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,560
You probably never done a bloody
hard day's work in your life.
173
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,200
All of you!
You and your bad garden parties.
174
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,440
I am so pleased
you feel that way.
175
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,240
I despise these curses as well.
176
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:19,880
Tiny Rowland.
177
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:21,960
Charming, suave,
178
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,120
sophisticated.
179
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,120
I should never
have trusted the curse.
180
00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:30,880
Alright, good one.
181
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,720
I'm just here to seal the deal
on a copper mine in Botswana.
182
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,360
But the dopey lord who owns
it has forgotten to turn up.
183
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,160
So there we are.
184
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,400
So Alan, Eileen,
185
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:41,760
Call me, Red.
186
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:42,920
Ha, Red.
187
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:44,760
If you're in Antibes next month,
188
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,840
why don't you join
me on my little launch?
189
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,080
Love to see you.
190
00:09:50,680 --> 00:09:53,800
Ladies and gentlemen.
Her majesty, The Queen.
191
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:04,440
Alan.
192
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:06,400
So delighted you could make it.
193
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:07,880
Great to see you, Tiny.
194
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:09,360
-Tiny Rowland.
-Diana Bliss.
195
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:10,920
Diana is
a friend of my mother's.
196
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:12,680
Of course.
197
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:13,800
This is my wife, Josie.
198
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,520
-Lovely to meet you.
-Pleasure, Josie.
199
00:10:16,680 --> 00:10:18,920
And you. Come with me.
200
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:21,640
Well,
201
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,960
-this is very nice, Tiny.
-Yes.
202
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,160
Who did you kill to get
the number one mooring?
203
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:27,680
Well the thing is Alan,
204
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,720
this is reserved for the
largest shareholder in Lonrho.
205
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,400
Since it's my company,
206
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:33,920
that's me.
207
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,840
The last play we went to was
Noel Coward's Blithe Spirit.
208
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,960
-Do you know the one?
-Yes I do.
209
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,080
The man's wife comes back
to haunt him after she has died.
210
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,360
Tiny was worried
I'd do that to him.
211
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,200
Yes well, I'm sure Alan's
worried his wife would too.
212
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:54,200
So Alan,
213
00:10:54,560 --> 00:10:56,520
how did you enjoy
meeting our queen?
214
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:58,560
Well, she's our queen too.
215
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,280
Yes, she was
actually very knowledgeable
216
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,600
about the America's Cup,
asked me lots of questions.
217
00:11:03,680 --> 00:11:05,240
Well that's her trick you see.
218
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,480
She asks questions,
she looks interested.
219
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,960
Makes her seem well
versed in any subject.
220
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,760
-Well, we got on well.
-Yes, of course you did.
221
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,640
I didn't mean
to imply otherwise.
222
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:16,240
At least she didn't
take the curse out of me.
223
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,680
The Royal Family
take more than the curse.
224
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,320
The thing about them is you see
225
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,600
they pretend it's all about
lineage and birthright but
226
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,760
no one asks them about their
German ancestry during the war.
227
00:11:30,680 --> 00:11:32,040
Unlike my family
228
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,600
and many others who were just
tossed into internment camps
229
00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:36,440
as suspected sympathizers,
230
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:38,200
not them,
231
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:39,560
not those hypocrites.
232
00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:41,920
Tiny's mother
died in one of those camps.
233
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,960
And people say
the English understand irony.
234
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,000
Well maybe I
should get a castle,
235
00:11:50,680 --> 00:11:51,680
become a lord,
236
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,240
-shove it up them.
-Alan, my dear fellow,
237
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,760
if you really want to ingratiate
238
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,760
yourself with
those pathetic people,
239
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:00,600
all you really need
240
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,440
is an obscene amount of money.
241
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:05,480
I reckon I can get that.
242
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,000
Don't over
complicate things darling.
243
00:12:11,680 --> 00:12:13,080
Your problem
is you think too much.
244
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:14,160
Or not enough.
245
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:15,920
If you want
to produce a play then do it.
246
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,800
It's not that simple, Alan.
There's a lot to consider.
247
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,120
Most transactions
come down to three things,
248
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,600
-time, money, and resources.
249
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,520
-What do you need?
-A play,
250
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,720
a theater, a director...
251
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,760
So find the play
and the rest is easy.
252
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:31,000
-I'll pay for it.
253
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:32,760
Hello,
Pauly, how are you?
254
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,680
Well thank you. Come this way.
255
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:37,080
-What's wrong?
256
00:12:37,560 --> 00:12:38,560
We need to leave.
257
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,840
-We haven't had our mains yet.
-I'll explain later, okay.
258
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,280
Can you just see
this person into a taxi?
259
00:12:45,560 --> 00:12:46,560
Yes, Sir.
260
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,040
-Come on, Darling.
-You're not coming with me?
261
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,640
No look I promise I'll
make it up to you later, okay.
262
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:53,120
Right now,
I just need you to go.
263
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,200
But I've got a big
surprise coming for you later.
264
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:56,880
-You're gonna love it.
-Is everything all right?
265
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:57,960
Yeah, yeah, it’s fine.
It will be fine okay.
266
00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,320
I'll talk to you later.
267
00:12:59,960 --> 00:13:00,960
This way Miss Bliss.
268
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,400
Ah, here they are.
Perth's most beautiful.
269
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:14,960
-What are you doing here?
270
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:16,080
Are you meeting someone?
271
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:17,960
Ah, only Laurie.
But the curse cancelled on me.
272
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:19,040
Mind if I join you?
273
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:20,400
As long as you pay
for the champagne.
274
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:21,680
-I see.
275
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,200
Now I told you
I'd make it up to you.
276
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:55,000
Ta-da!
277
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,160
Well? What do you think?
278
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:00,160
Of what?
279
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:01,520
Of this place.
280
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:02,880
Upp Hall.
281
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:04,360
I bought it.
282
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:05,480
For me?
283
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:08,800
Come on,
I want to show you the lake.
284
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,120
Now there is seven cottages.
285
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,200
Riding school,
but you can't go far
286
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:17,680
because its only 400 acres.
287
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,240
I thought Tiny said
you didn't need a castle?
288
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,160
Ah, what does Tiny know?
289
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:29,720
This isn't about
Tiny or anyone else.
290
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:31,800
And it'll be official?
291
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:33,760
You and me?
292
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,600
Sir Alan and
Lady Bond await your company.
293
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:41,800
That's more like it.
294
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,160
-When can we move in?
295
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:54,840
Soon, my love.
296
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,480
I've just got a little bit
of business to sort out first
297
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,160
and then there'll
be nothing to stop us.
298
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:06,440
Winnie the Pooh,
299
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,040
with megabucks.
300
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,080
- What?
-Alan Bond.
301
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,960
Like you to find out
everything you can about him.
302
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,560
Former associates,
business partners,
303
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,280
strengths, weaknesses.
You know that sort of thing.
304
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,600
-Really?
-Behind every great fortune
305
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,240
lies a great crime.
306
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,520
He did after all beat the
Americans at their own game.
307
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,040
I think it would be a mistake
308
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,000
to underestimate
our Australian friend.
309
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:34,760
1985,
310
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:36,480
has been a record year.
311
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,000
We are now the fastest
growing corporation in Australia
312
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:45,920
but with your support,
313
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,400
we can be even bigger.
314
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:49,600
Our interests are growing.
315
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,360
Through media,
defense and mining.
316
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,280
We will soon
be expanding to capture
317
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,880
a dominant stake
of the Australian market
318
00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,000
through Bond Brewing.
319
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,880
No one has ever gone broke
in Australia owning a brewery.
320
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:08,280
Thank you.
321
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,560
In the
largest corporate takeover
322
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:19,880
in Australia’s history,
323
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,360
Bond Corporation has bought
Castle Maine Toohey’s
324
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:24,640
for 1.2 billion dollars.
325
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,320
Bond Corp now owns 70%
of the Australian beer market.
326
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:30,920
- Alan?
-Oh, here we go.
327
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,040
It can wait. Go away.
328
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:35,280
What is it?
329
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:36,680
We’ve got problems.
330
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:38,560
They don’t like that you
331
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,440
put a Bond Brewing sign
over their beloved Four X sign.
332
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,760
-Who doesn’t?
-The entire state of Queensland.
333
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,360
Bugger them.
It will blow over.
334
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,320
-What’s the second thing?
-New South Wales.
335
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:49,880
Another state hates me too?
336
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:51,440
The Toohey’s
publicans are threatening
337
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,800
to boycott if we insist
they can only sell our beer.
338
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:56,440
Then give them notices to quit.
339
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,440
-What?
-The publicans. Get rid of them.
340
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,960
We put our own managers
in and they sell Bond beer only.
341
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:02,440
-It’s simple.
-It’s a bit extreme, Al.
342
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:03,800
They won’t take it lying down.
343
00:17:04,360 --> 00:17:07,240
The quality
of mercy, Alan is not strained.
344
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:09,720
What the curse does that mean?
345
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,520
I’m not negotiating
with blackmailers, Darling!
346
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,680
-All right.
-I own the bloody pubs!
347
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:15,880
I know this game.
348
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:17,840
Good old, Bondy
will give us what we want.
349
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:19,320
Why should I?
350
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,280
I've had to fight for
everything I have, why not them?
351
00:17:22,360 --> 00:17:23,600
Because it’s costing us.
352
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,160
Money and reputation.
353
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:28,800
Nah!
354
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:30,720
Burn the curses!
355
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:32,600
Today
the Bond Corporation
356
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,880
rescinded all licenses
to New South Wales’s publicans
357
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:37,560
and issued notices to quit.
358
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,320
The move has
been prompted by a stalemate
359
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,120
over whether
the Alan Bond-owned hoteliers
360
00:17:43,360 --> 00:17:46,080
have the right to sell
only Alan Bond-owned beer.
361
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,160
This
is everything to us.
362
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,160
We’ve put our life and soul
363
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,800
for the past ten years
into building this business
364
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,520
and we’ll fight Mr. Bond
in the courts if we have to.
365
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,440
Not long ago,
Alan Bond was a battler himself.
366
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,640
The Aussie who took on the
might of the Americans and won.
367
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,320
And now he’s being
painted as the villain
368
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,160
in a very public row.
369
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:08,560
- No?
- No.
370
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,160
We don’t understand
why Alan Bond would do this us.
371
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,320
We’ve done renovations.
We’ve put in a beer garden,
372
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:16,240
but he is saying
it’s not worth anything.
373
00:18:16,360 --> 00:18:17,680
Are you sure you will
never wear this one?
374
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,120
No.
Put it in the donations pile.
375
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,440
...the right of the
publicans to on-sell goodwill,
376
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,680
which traditionally under old
management has been the case.
377
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,280
But Bond Corp is refusing
378
00:18:27,360 --> 00:18:29,600
to acknowledge
the publicans claims,
379
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,080
which will leave many
hard-working men and women
380
00:18:32,360 --> 00:18:33,360
with nothing.
381
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,800
Quite frankly,
he’s behaving like a crook.
382
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:37,200
People don’t
want to believe it is because
383
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:38,280
of the America’s Cup,
384
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:39,720
but that’s what he is.
385
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,000
What Alan Bond
is doing to everyone.
386
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,800
He’s gone from hero to zero.
387
00:18:48,120 --> 00:18:49,360
This is wonderful.
388
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,080
They might be second hand,
but they’re all good quality.
389
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,400
Thank you, Eileen.
Everything helps.
390
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:58,320
Is there
something troubling you?
391
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:00,840
Oh no.
392
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:02,080
Thank you Father.
393
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:04,840
Helen,
394
00:19:05,120 --> 00:19:09,360
would you give me a hand to sort
through some of these goodies?
395
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,600
-Eileen Bond?
-Yes?
396
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,320
Think you’re better
than us now, do you?
397
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:20,640
Sorry?
398
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,680
How could
you do it to ordinary Aussies?
399
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,680
Kick them out on the streets?
400
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,160
Haven’t you got enough money?
401
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:28,400
Not rich enough?
402
00:19:30,120 --> 00:19:31,360
Did you hear me?
403
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,160
Eileen, I'm having a curse.
404
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:34,840
I was shouted at, Alan.
405
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,360
I was abused outside my church.
406
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,960
I'm in the bathroom alright.
A little bit of privacy.
407
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:41,320
It's not going to end well.
408
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,920
People think you’re
being mean to the little guys.
409
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:45,160
What are you...
410
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,800
Listen, they’re pub owners.
411
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,480
All right,
they’re not the little guys.
412
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:51,040
Fix it!
413
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:55,960
We’re behind you, Reg.
414
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:57,960
Yeah.
415
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:07,560
Don’t worry love.
416
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,200
I just spoke to the lawyer
417
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,000
and he thinks
we’ve got a good case.
418
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:13,880
Don't worry, Love.
419
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:16,480
I have just got to pop out.
420
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,720
Just got to get
some gas for the barbie, okay.
421
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:20,840
Well can you
pick up some ice too,
422
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,200
because the ice
machine is on the blink.
423
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:23,440
Yep.
424
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:24,840
And the
kids will be here at five.
425
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:26,600
I'll be back before then.
426
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:30,600
Mrs. Lynch?
427
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:32,840
I have some bad news.
428
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,120
100's turned out today
429
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,040
for the funeral of Reg Lynch.
430
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:38,760
A New South Wales publican
431
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:40,520
and Toohey’s license holder.
432
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,840
His death is widely
thought to be the result
433
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:44,560
of the enormous
financial pressure
434
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,280
and potential ruin he faced due
to actions of Bond Corporation.
435
00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:58,680
I told you.
436
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:12,520
Oh, for me?
437
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,080
Oh, thank you, Judy.
438
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,040
- It’s just a little thing
-That is too much, thank you.
439
00:22:17,120 --> 00:22:18,320
How about that Alan?
440
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:23,160
Hi everyone.
441
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,040
-I am sorry we’re late.
-So sorry we're late.
442
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,360
-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas.
443
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,000
-Ah, we didn’t wait.
-Christmas in July.
444
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:34,200
Love it.
445
00:22:34,360 --> 00:22:36,560
-Merry Christmas Judy.
446
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:37,840
-How are you?
-Fantastic.
447
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:39,560
Do you want to put
some hats on Darling?
448
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:44,760
- Okay, your turn.
- My turn.
449
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:46,800
Put that on the noggin.
450
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,520
-Everyone enjoying themselves?
451
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:50,920
I am glad you are.
452
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:52,640
I want you to lap it up.
453
00:22:54,120 --> 00:22:55,520
Not that any of you deserve it.
454
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:00,440
You have all
455
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:01,720
been under-performing.
456
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:03,360
Every single one of you.
457
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:05,840
We’re losing millions.
458
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:07,520
The Toohey’s Castle Maine deal
459
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,400
has been a disaster
from the beginning.
460
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,240
Do you have any
idea how much is at stake?
461
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:12,760
The debt on that
deal was always going to be...
462
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,880
What have you
curses done for me lately?
463
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:16,800
Do I have to do everything?
464
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:18,840
Alan, I think
you’re being very unfair.
465
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,600
What do I care
what you think, Trudy?
466
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:22,800
-It’s Judy.
-Whatever, vinegar boobs!
467
00:23:23,120 --> 00:23:24,400
Your dumb-bum husband
468
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,200
has not done one thing
469
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,160
to warrant his executive salary.
470
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:29,880
The amount you’ve been paid,
471
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:31,400
do you know what
the papers are calling it?
472
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:33,680
The golden handshake.
473
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:35,000
That’s what they’re calling it.
474
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:36,960
Alan’s too generous,
that’s what they say.
475
00:23:37,360 --> 00:23:38,640
But I say, oh no,
476
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,040
My team deserve
to be paid what they’re worth
477
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:42,280
and if that means
478
00:23:42,360 --> 00:23:44,720
multi-million dollar salary
packages to keep them,
479
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:45,840
then so be it.
480
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,200
But I think all it’s done
481
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,680
-has made you bone bloody lazy.
482
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:52,760
You don’t have
to worry if things go sour
483
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:54,720
because you’re
all getting paid a boatload.
484
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:56,840
-So don’t just sit back
485
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:58,520
and think you
can live off the hog.
486
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,600
-I’m not the god damn hog!
487
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:09,480
Well come on.
488
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:11,200
Eat up before it goes cold.
489
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,600
He's bought
into Airship Industries.
490
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:25,600
Blimps? How quaint.
491
00:24:26,360 --> 00:24:29,840
He also has gold and
nickel mines worth 480 million,
492
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,800
over
20,000 hectares of farmland,
493
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:33,160
oil and gas interests,
494
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,920
a telecommunications
company in Chile...
495
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,080
Chile, with Pinochet?
496
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,200
Well, it's better
than blimps I suppose.
497
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,480
He's in discussions on property
development with the Vatican
498
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,920
and has just bought the U.S.
brewer Heileman for 1.5 billion.
499
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:50,920
Who's lending
him all this money?
500
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:52,080
Everyone.
501
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,240
He pays above the normal rate,
502
00:24:54,360 --> 00:24:56,240
but it seems
to be working for him.
503
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,920
Well, so long as the
market holds up, I suppose.
504
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,440
And he was named
Australian of the Year.
505
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:03,920
-Oh, dear.
506
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,760
That must have
been an impressive field.
507
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:08,800
He is a strange bird isn't he?
508
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,200
People either
love him or hate him.
509
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,080
You might like this.
510
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,520
A former associate said,
511
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:23,160
"Doing business with Alan was
like rolling in mud with a pig,
512
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,280
except the pig loves it."
513
00:25:26,360 --> 00:25:27,640
The more I hear about him
514
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,000
the more I like him.
515
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:30,800
In the Indian Ocean
516
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,480
off Western Australia we
begin the long process
517
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,520
of defending our sporting honor,
518
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:36,680
The America's Cup begins.
519
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,480
Psychologically,
strategically and financially
520
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,800
Freemantle is Bond territory.
521
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:44,360
Not for nothing did he
522
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,720
break America’s
132 year-old hold on the cup
523
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,560
and he's putting
big money into defending it.
524
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:52,640
It's my cursed cup!
525
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:54,080
I won it!
526
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,960
And you want me to fight
for the right to defend the cup,
527
00:25:58,400 --> 00:25:59,400
that I won?
528
00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:02,680
Do you know how hard it will be
to beat the Americans again?
529
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,160
We need
to mount a single defense.
530
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,120
Led by you, of course?
531
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,320
I'm the only one with the
experience to beat the Americans
532
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,880
Look,
in the interest of fairness...
533
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,120
-Fairness isn't going to cut it!
534
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,240
This isn't a sport!
535
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,280
It's a battle of wills!
536
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,240
It's war on water!
537
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,800
I challenged
four times before I won that mug
538
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:26,960
and every single time
539
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,120
The New York Yacht Club tried
540
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:29,960
every trick in the
book to have me disqualified.
541
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,120
-We've heard the stories, Alan.
-They're not bloody stories!
542
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,520
We're not New York,
rest assured.
543
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,000
We won't be changing the rules
544
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,600
-or trying any dirty tricks.
-That's just the point!
545
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:42,640
You should be! Don't you get it?
546
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,680
You need to be as two-faced
547
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:46,600
and underhanded as they are.
548
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,840
Don't make it hard for them!
Make it cursing impossible!
549
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,160
Was there anything else?
550
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,800
-Cursed amateurs the lot of you.
551
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,000
Those
simple minded idiots
552
00:27:04,120 --> 00:27:05,920
forced me to challenge
other Australian boats
553
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,000
for the right
to defend my America's cup.
554
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:09,400
And guess what?
555
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,240
The victors
came in both Kookaburra crews
556
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:12,640
Kookaburra Two
and Kookaburra Three.
557
00:27:13,120 --> 00:27:15,200
-Getting away from...
-Thank you.
558
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:16,680
Alan Bond on board the boat.
559
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:18,640
Lots of nostalgia today
560
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,240
at the end
of a 20 million dollar
561
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:21,680
campaign for Bondy this time.
562
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:23,200
Ah well, um,
563
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:24,960
I don't know, it's...
564
00:27:26,120 --> 00:27:28,240
Oh, I'd be so
upset if Alan didn't try again.
565
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,440
It's been such a huge part
of our life for so many years.
566
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,120
It's too much fun.
567
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:34,640
Turn it off.
568
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:42,920
Can't be easy for you.
569
00:27:43,360 --> 00:27:44,760
Well,
it's Alan I'm worried about.
570
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,160
He hates to lose.
571
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:48,600
I didn't mean the race.
572
00:27:50,360 --> 00:27:52,120
Well at least now
we can be together.
573
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,200
You don't think he's
going to leave Eileen, do you?
574
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:02,640
I love my son,
575
00:28:03,360 --> 00:28:06,680
but Alan's always pushing
see what he can get away with.
576
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:10,600
Then maybe I need to push back.
577
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,280
God it's been a while.
578
00:28:24,360 --> 00:28:27,400
Talk to me Harry Winston.
Tell me all about it.
579
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:35,240
So how was the opera?
580
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:36,960
Oh, it was stunning.
581
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,960
That was the best Marilyn.
582
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:47,760
Angelo.
583
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:49,640
Mrs. Bond, how can I help you?
584
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,760
You can start by
throwing that curse out!
585
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:56,880
I'm sorry I
can't possibly do that,
586
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:58,440
even for you.
587
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:00,040
Don't worry about her, Red.
588
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:01,960
Just ignore her.
She means nothing.
589
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:03,040
You know what.
590
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:04,280
You are so right.
591
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,000
You are so right.
592
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,000
More champagne.
593
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,400
She has to sell me an
airport for a million pounds.
594
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:13,680
Hey, Sue.
595
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:15,160
She's a tough old bird,
596
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:16,520
but she's not
getting the better of A.B.
597
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:19,400
Oh, hey darling?
598
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:21,800
Mm...
599
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:28,080
That's a nice surprise.
600
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:30,400
Oh curse!
601
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:32,560
Do you think this is funny?
602
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,200
And you. What's wrong with you?
603
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,880
Alan is my husband.
Have you no shame?
604
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,640
Why don't you curse off
and get your own husband?
605
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,240
Or maybe you can't. Is that it?
606
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,240
-Eileen please.
-Make her go!
607
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,240
Get her out of here!
608
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,480
Maybe it's best if you leave.
609
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:55,480
Why should I?
610
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,320
I'm having lunch with friends.
You don't own this place.
611
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,440
Well, actually, I do.
I bought it last week.
612
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:02,680
Oh, curse you!
613
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:10,400
Just give me a sec.
614
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:11,800
Sorry fellas.
615
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:14,680
Gents,
if you could come this way.
616
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,320
Don't think me ungrateful, Alan.
I appreciate the trip to London,
617
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:54,360
but I know
what's really going on.
618
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:56,600
The whole town knows.
619
00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,760
I thought you'd
enjoy yourself with Diana.
620
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:01,440
I've set her up with
a nice apartment and...
621
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,320
Miss Bliss and I
always have a nice time,
622
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,680
but you can't think
shuffling her away to London
623
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:06,880
will solve anything.
624
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:11,280
Well, what do you suggest?
625
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:13,880
You know what you have to do.
626
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:16,440
You think I should
break up with Diana?
627
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:18,560
-I thought you liked her?
-Of course I do.
628
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:20,200
Diana has class.
629
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,360
But you can't string her
along on false promises.
630
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,440
If you break up with her now,
631
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,680
she's still young
enough to meet someone new.
632
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:29,200
Have babies.
633
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,080
You need to think about what's
best for her for a change.
634
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:44,520
Bye, bye darling.
635
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:47,720
Hello darling.
636
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:49,200
I am so looking
forward to our trip.
637
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:50,760
I am so pleased you're coming.
638
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,240
Mum's so happy you're
going to London with her.
639
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:00,840
It won't be
like this forever, I promise.
640
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:02,800
You've made
a lot of promises, Alan.
641
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:04,040
And I will keep them.
642
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,560
Okay, there is just one
little thing I have to do first.
643
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:07,960
Alright?
644
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:10,840
Are we good?
645
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:36,840
For more than 30 years
646
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,800
the Packer family have dominated
Australian television
647
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,840
by controlling the Channel
9's in Sydney and Melbourne.
648
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,600
I already owned
Channel 9 in Perth and Brisbane,
649
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:48,800
Kerry Packer owned
Sydney and Melbourne.
650
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:50,920
But we both knew the real worth
651
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:52,360
was in a national network.
652
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:54,480
It was either a case of...
653
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,120
get bigger or get out.
654
00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:58,480
Our proposal.
655
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,560
-Don't let him set the price.
-Good advice, Pete.
656
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:04,760
Now Kerry is going
to want top dollar. Remember
657
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,080
it's only worth as much
as someone is willing to pay.
658
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:08,360
Yes, yes.
659
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,040
Get out, quick, get out.
660
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,040
Kerry knew
what the meeting was for.
661
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,560
I was either going
to sell my stations to him,
662
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:17,320
or I was going to buy his.
663
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:25,760
Kerry.
664
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:31,600
Now,
665
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:34,960
how about we work
out something that, ah...
666
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:36,440
suits us both?
667
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:38,920
So?
What's he want?
668
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:40,600
A billion.
669
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:42,240
A billion?
670
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:43,440
Yep,
671
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:44,520
a billion.
672
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,080
He's gotta be joking?
673
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:47,760
It's not even worth that much.
674
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:48,840
Well, that's what he wants
675
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:49,960
and he reckons I can't get it.
676
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:51,400
-You can't.
-Give me that.
677
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:58,960
Is that the banker with the
biggest balls in Australia?
678
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:00,120
Yes, mate.
679
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:02,440
I need a billion dollars.
680
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:04,640
-A billion?
-Yep.
681
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:07,840
Okay Alan, tell me
how you'll make the deal?
682
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,040
Okay so it's 800 million cash,
683
00:34:10,240 --> 00:34:11,440
200 million on credit.
684
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:13,240
I'll set up Bond Media,
685
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,800
put in the two existing
stations worth 400 million,
686
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,480
then raise 400 million from
the public in share capital,
687
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:19,680
that way we only carry
688
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:20,760
400 million of debt.
689
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:22,720
I mean really,
it's a no-brainer.
690
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,240
Of course, I do have
two other banks interested so...
691
00:34:26,720 --> 00:34:27,960
It must
have been a fascinating
692
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:30,360
stand-off between
yourself and Alan Bond.
693
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,120
After starting
television in Australia,
694
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:33,920
why is the
Packer family selling it?
695
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:35,480
Money.
696
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:40,560
-Gentlemen.
-Bond.
697
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:42,280
Mr. Bond now controls
698
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:43,880
a truly national
television network
699
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:45,920
following his
purchase of Kerry Packer's
700
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,120
Channel 9 stations
in Sydney and Melbourne.
701
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,160
Alan Bond has known
what it's like to be broke
702
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:54,000
but in the past year
the former Perth sign writer
703
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:56,480
has been the high
flyer of Australian business.
704
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:57,960
I own you lot.
705
00:34:58,600 --> 00:34:59,600
Got you Darryl.
706
00:35:00,240 --> 00:35:01,240
Ray.
707
00:35:03,240 --> 00:35:04,280
Let's ask the lady herself,
708
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:05,760
please welcome Mrs. Eileen Bond.
709
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:14,880
It is very much
a fairy tale story.
710
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,720
I mean there you
were married at 18,
711
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:18,320
and 30 odd years later,
712
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,000
four children,
one or two dollars.
713
00:35:20,720 --> 00:35:22,200
It was a tough start
though wasn't it? I mean...
714
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,080
he was struggling, there was no
715
00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:26,240
idea at that stage that you
were going to be at this point.
716
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:27,480
No, true,
717
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:29,520
except knowing Alan,
718
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:30,680
knowing what Alan was like,
719
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:32,720
you always knew something
like this was going to happen.
720
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:34,320
Alan's always on the move,
721
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,720
always thinking about
what his next big thing will be.
722
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:38,440
Things can only get better.
723
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,320
The law
of gravity hit wall street today
724
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,480
and financial
markets around the world
725
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:48,920
as stock prices plunged
even more than they did
726
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:50,000
on black Tuesday...
727
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,960
The Dow lost 22.6% of its value
728
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,200
or $500 billion
dollars in one day of trading.
729
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,760
Not since the
Great Depression of 1929
730
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:02,560
has there been such a downturn.
731
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,960
And there really
is no end in sight.
732
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:08,360
No one seems to know if the
markets have bottomed out.
733
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:11,760
Alan?
734
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:13,400
Alan?
735
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:16,360
Are we going broke?
736
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:19,200
I don't know.
737
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:21,760
Well,
what are you doing about it?
738
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:24,560
I don't know.
739
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:26,880
Look at you.
This isn't the Alan I married.
740
00:36:28,240 --> 00:36:29,320
I was broke when you married me.
741
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:30,880
I'm not talking about the money.
742
00:36:31,240 --> 00:36:33,080
Back then you had energy.
743
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:34,680
You weren't
going to let anything,
744
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:36,080
or anyone,
stand in your way.
745
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:37,480
What's changed?
746
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:43,400
Nothing has changed.
747
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:46,320
Absolutely nothing.
748
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:54,520
I need to go to London.
749
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:02,800
The smart thing
to do in a bear market
750
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:04,360
is act like a bull.
751
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,320
Find companies
with healthy assets,
752
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:07,720
feed from the carcass
753
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:09,560
and strip them to the bone.
754
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,080
Won’t be too long now, Mr. Bond.
755
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:16,960
-Another tea?
-No thanks, Love.
756
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:24,880
Tiny's company Lonrho had
everything we needed and more.
757
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,280
Problem was he wasn't
going to make it easy for me.
758
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:29,760
But that was
part of the fun of it.
759
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:33,520
Alan, my dear fellow,
760
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,040
no idea you were here.
How about,
761
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,480
why didn't you tell me, Pippa?
762
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,240
I do hope it hasn't
been too much trouble.
763
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:43,360
Come with me.
764
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,080
Good things
come to those who wait.
765
00:37:45,240 --> 00:37:48,160
I heard you might be in a spot
of trouble, old boy, is it true?
766
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:49,360
Oh it's funny.
767
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:51,320
I heard the same about you.
768
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:54,600
Anything I can do to help?
769
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,600
Well, no offence Tiny, but
770
00:37:57,760 --> 00:37:58,880
you're not getting any younger.
771
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:00,800
Thinking of...
772
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:02,160
cashing in your chips,
773
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:03,640
unloading Lonrho, are you?
774
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:05,400
Quite the opposite.
775
00:38:06,240 --> 00:38:07,720
In fact I was
thinking perhaps I could take
776
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:09,640
that South African diamond mine
777
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:10,920
off your hands.
778
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:12,920
That would free up a bit
of cash for you, wouldn't it?
779
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:14,680
Well whatever you
may have heard Tiny,
780
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:15,760
it's completely wrong.
781
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,120
With our recent reorganization
we're in a growth phase.
782
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:20,880
I'm in the market to purchase.
783
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:22,600
-I stand corrected.
784
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:26,360
I should have known that
Alan Bond would have a plan.
785
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:30,400
I like the ah...
786
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,160
primal African theme you
have got going on here, Tiny.
787
00:38:33,240 --> 00:38:34,240
It's very ah...
788
00:38:34,720 --> 00:38:35,760
"King of the Jungle".
789
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,000
Yes well the city
is a far nastier jungle
790
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,160
than anything
Africa has to offer.
791
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,360
Borrowing
money is all about perception.
792
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:48,080
The more you spend,
793
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:49,440
the more you can borrow.
794
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:51,200
So, so I spent.
795
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:55,560
High-rises.
796
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:57,640
Oil.
797
00:38:57,920 --> 00:38:58,920
Electricity.
798
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:00,760
Phone.
799
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,000
And, one of
Australia's biggest companies.
800
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:05,040
And the kicker?
801
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:07,200
I bought Van Gogh's "Irises".
802
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:09,920
Only a rich and powerful
man could afford to spend
803
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,560
49 million dollars
on a single painting.
804
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:14,160
A new world record.
805
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:16,840
I didn't have
a care in the world.
806
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:22,400
I have got to take this.
807
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:26,880
Yes?
808
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:28,160
Alan its Peter.
809
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:30,040
We've got a problem.
810
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:31,520
What sort of problem?
811
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:33,280
Laurie Connell's Rothwell’s Bank
812
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,320
suspended trading today.
813
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:37,760
while angry
customers demanded to know
814
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,840
why they were being
denied access to their accounts.
815
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,240
Laurie wasn't only
shitting in his own backyard.
816
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:45,920
He was shitting in mine.
817
00:39:46,720 --> 00:39:47,800
The church has a lot of money
818
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:49,440
tied into the Rothwell's Bank.
819
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,280
They're saying it
could go completely belly up
820
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,080
and the
Government can't save it.
821
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,560
I don't think there is anything
I can do about that, Father.
822
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,080
It won't be good for the church
823
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:03,560
or for Bond Corp
if we lose all our money.
824
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:05,360
It'll be devastating.
825
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:15,080
Leave it with me.
826
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:18,960
I have faith, my son.
827
00:40:29,240 --> 00:40:31,160
I am glad you
listened to me for a change.
828
00:40:31,240 --> 00:40:32,520
It will work out for the best.
829
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,440
Believe in miracles, do you?
830
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:36,760
Entrepreneur
Alan Bond leads a consortium
831
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:38,000
of business leaders
832
00:40:38,240 --> 00:40:40,600
in an effort to rescue
the failing bank, Rothwell's.
833
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:42,760
In an eleventh hour mission,
834
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,360
Mr. Bond has
injected 120 million dollars
835
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:46,520
into the bank's coffers.
836
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,200
I'm doing this because
it's the right thing to do.
837
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:51,400
I'm doing this to help out
838
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,240
all the mum and dad investors
out there and to help the state.
839
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:56,320
I want to emphasize,
840
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,120
there is nothing
in this for me personally.
841
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:00,760
Thank you.
842
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:01,960
Thank you Alan.
843
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:03,320
Pleasure Father.
844
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:06,560
The church
got their money back.
845
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,200
And I guaranteed
myself a place in heaven.
846
00:41:18,240 --> 00:41:19,240
It's a debacle.
847
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,040
Despite everything,
Rothwell's is still going under.
848
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,800
It's what happens when you give
a crook the keys to the vault.
849
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:26,760
And when the disciples saw this,
850
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:28,200
they were indignant.
851
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:29,600
Thank you mother.
852
00:41:29,720 --> 00:41:31,720
But I'm no disciple
of Last-Resort-Laurie.
853
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:33,680
At least the church
still got their money.
854
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:34,880
Thank God.
855
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:36,440
No blaspheming intended.
856
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:38,480
You got your assets protected?
857
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,760
Tied up in trusts,
off-shore accounts and
858
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:42,240
subsidiary companies.
859
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,400
So there is nothing to stop
you being with Diana is there?
860
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,200
Not so long ago you were
advising me to cut her loose.
861
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,800
Life's too short not
to be with the one you love.
862
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:55,560
And if you can't be
with the one you love?
863
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,680
And the house
reverts to the family company,
864
00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:21,320
-Dallhold.
865
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:23,760
As to my jewelry,
866
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,280
I leave it all
to my dear friend,
867
00:42:27,240 --> 00:42:28,240
Diana Bliss.
868
00:42:30,720 --> 00:42:31,720
What?
869
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,480
They're heirlooms
and she's left them to her.
870
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,440
Look Eileen,
can we please not do this now.
871
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:49,720
Oh do what now?
872
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:51,560
You've got plenty of jewelry.
873
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,520
You think this is about jewelry?
I don't care about any jewelry!
874
00:42:54,720 --> 00:42:57,160
-I don't care about your money--
-My mother just died!
875
00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:00,240
And she's got
a lot to bloody answer for!
876
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:02,720
-You always hated her.
-She hated me!
877
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:04,400
And you never
once stood up for me.
878
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,800
And now, she's humiliated
me from beyond the grave.
879
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:09,360
-Please stop!
-I could divorce you now
880
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:11,000
for tens of millions of dollars.
881
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,680
And I could have you
bumped off for ten grand.
882
00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:27,520
Mother bequeathed it to you.
883
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:29,760
All of it.
884
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:36,400
I don't know what to say.
885
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:39,440
I'm overwhelmed,
886
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:43,800
but I'm sorry, I can't accept.
887
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:46,720
It should go to family.
888
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:50,320
Well you are family.
889
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,360
Listen, things are
tight right now right.
890
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:57,840
If Eileen wanted to push it,
891
00:43:57,920 --> 00:43:59,800
I might have to sell
Bond Corp to pay her off.
892
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,960
The lawyers think she's
entitled to half of everything.
893
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,760
Half of your fortune Alan,
is still a fortune.
894
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,200
Most people can't
even imagine one tenth,
895
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:15,040
a hundredth,
896
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,280
-of what you have.
-No, that's different.
897
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:20,600
You don't miss
what you've never had.
898
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:21,680
How much is enough?
899
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:24,480
How much do you
really need to be happy?
900
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:28,360
I'm so close.
901
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:31,280
Close to what?
902
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:34,880
What is it that you want?
903
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:39,960
I'm calling it
"Operation Bligh".
904
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,320
You sure you want
to take on Tiny Rowland?
905
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:45,120
His company's
vulnerable right now.
906
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:46,800
Tiny's ready to retire.
907
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,000
From what I hear you'll have
take Tiny Rowland out in a box.
908
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:51,400
Tiny is a pussycat.
909
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,680
With the right incentive,
he can be persuaded.
910
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:56,520
And if we get
hold of Lonrho we'll become
911
00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:58,720
the second
biggest brewer in the world.
912
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:00,840
Okay so get cracking.
913
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:02,080
Do it stealthily.
914
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:03,640
Small share parcels.
915
00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:06,040
We don't
want him to know it's us.
916
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,040
You're not going to like this.
917
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:20,600
-Hello?
-Yeah g'day, Love.
918
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:22,680
Put Tiny on will you.
It's Alan Bond.
919
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:25,640
It's for you.
It's Mr. Bond.
920
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,760
-Yes?
-Hey Tiny! How's it going?
921
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:36,400
Alan, I don't imagine that you
meant act like an ignorant oaf.
922
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:39,040
Oh,
you mean the number one birth?
923
00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:41,680
That is exactly
what I mean, yes.
924
00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:43,800
Well, you told me
yourself it's reserved
925
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,280
for the major
shareholder of Lonrho, right?
926
00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:49,520
See the thing is, Tiny,
927
00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:52,720
I now own 20% of the company.
928
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:54,880
So guess what that makes me?
929
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:01,200
Pippa,
930
00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:05,960
I want you to do
the financials on Bond Corp.
931
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:08,880
I am going
to crucify that curse.
932
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:21,360
What are you
looking so happy about?
933
00:46:22,720 --> 00:46:24,680
I've got
Tiny Rowland on the ropes.
934
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:26,160
He is all but over.
935
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:28,520
-I thought you liked him.
-I do like him.
936
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:31,080
It's still fun to take
his company from him.
937
00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:35,920
Now that's done,
we can get married.
938
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,840
Eileen and I are practically
divorced anyway love.
939
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:42,120
What does
it matter about formalities?
940
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:45,960
Because I want to have children
941
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:47,640
and I don't
want people referring
942
00:46:47,720 --> 00:46:49,280
to them as Alan Bond's curses.
943
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,640
Oh, curse, Diana,
do you ever let up about this?
944
00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:53,760
-Don't I make you happy?
-Yes of course.
945
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:55,720
Haven't I given you
everything you've ever wanted?
946
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:57,320
-Look at this place.
-I know Alan,
947
00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:58,400
and I'm very thankful.
948
00:46:58,480 --> 00:46:59,840
You wanted to be
a theater producer,
949
00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:01,440
so I bankrolled
your play, didn't I?
950
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:03,000
-Yes, but--
-Would you rather trade it all
951
00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:05,640
for a couple of snotty nosed
kids and house in the suburbs?
952
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:07,360
Yes, I would.
953
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:10,720
-Where are you going?
-I've got a headache.
954
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:13,200
We've got dinner booked?
955
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:15,520
If you've got
a headache take a bloody pill.
956
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:17,960
Oh that's it.
Yup, yup,
957
00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:20,240
pull the covers up.
That'll make everything go away.
958
00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:21,760
There's more to life
than sleep you know.
959
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,040
Get up!
We're going out!
960
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:29,040
You are never
going to leave Eileen, are you?
961
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:31,440
There'll always
be another "Tiny" to conquer,
962
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:32,760
another excuse.
963
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:35,320
All right.
964
00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:36,880
Stay in bed.
I am going to dinner.
965
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:39,640
If you walk
out of this apartment, Alan,
966
00:47:39,720 --> 00:47:41,600
-I don't want you to come back.
-What's that?
967
00:47:42,240 --> 00:47:43,840
You're kicking me
out of my own apartment?
968
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:45,800
I was under the
impression you bought it for me.
969
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:48,800
All right.
970
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:50,360
Keep it. It's yours.
971
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:54,640
Let's see how you long you last
without A.B. paying the bills.
972
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:00,680
And you just
remember something, Missy.
973
00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:02,680
I made you.
974
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:04,720
You are nothing without me.
975
00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:12,440
Here you go, Sir.
976
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:14,360
Thanks, Doll.
977
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:21,360
There I was,
978
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:23,320
a man in his kingdom.
979
00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:26,240
Well I wasn't one for
wallowing in the past.
980
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:28,320
I was happy to move on.
981
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:38,120
- How is it going?
- Yeah good
982
00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:41,600
ah, sorry this is a singles
party for the under 35's.
983
00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:44,240
Hey, the age limit
doesn't apply to Bondy.
984
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:45,600
-How are you going?
-How are you mate?
985
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:46,680
Come on in.
986
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:49,280
-Can I get you a drink?
-Ah, scotch please.
987
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:55,600
Yeah, well, they
said I'd never do it,
988
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:57,280
but I showed them.
989
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,080
Never before in 132 years.
990
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:02,920
I've got a replica of the cup
991
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:04,400
back at my place
if you want to see it?
992
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:06,080
It's actually
better than the original.
993
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:23,160
Well, ah,
994
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:24,960
I reckon you are onto
a good thing here, Richard.
995
00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:26,840
You know what I think this
996
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:28,240
"Singles Party"
has room for expansion.
997
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:30,560
I know what,
a pool party.
998
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:31,800
We'll have it at my place.
999
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:33,800
Some advertising,
get some sponsors on board.
1000
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:34,880
What do you say?
1001
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,280
-Love it mate.
1002
00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:47,880
Well ah, I've broken
up with my girlfriend.
1003
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:50,240
See how she gets
along without me.
1004
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:51,800
Honestly, Mum,
1005
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:54,800
just tell him if he doesn't stop
acting like a randy teenager,
1006
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:55,920
that you'll divorce him.
1007
00:49:56,720 --> 00:49:59,160
-It's not that simple.
-It is that simple.
1008
00:49:59,960 --> 00:50:00,960
Well um,
1009
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:02,960
my marriage is,
1010
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:04,840
it’s complicated.
1011
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:08,120
I'm not taking marital advice
from my divorced daughter,
1012
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:09,240
thank you very much.
1013
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:11,680
And I won’t divorce
him because he deserves me.
1014
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:14,560
Ah, g'day love.
1015
00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:16,720
You finally came
to your senses hey?
1016
00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:23,920
That deal you made
with Laurie Connell
1017
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:25,600
has blown up in our faces.
1018
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:27,640
I told you not to get involved.
1019
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:29,800
They're calling it
part of W. A. Inc.
1020
00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:31,280
-You see.
1021
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:33,400
You see what happens when you
try and do something for a mate.
1022
00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:35,080
You took 15 million out of it.
1023
00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:37,800
The rescue package
was worth 120 million.
1024
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:39,280
I'm not a charity, Peter.
1025
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:40,960
You should have
declared it at the time.
1026
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:42,520
Well there's no
law that said I had to.
1027
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:43,600
Actually there is.
1028
00:50:43,720 --> 00:50:44,920
Look, forget about that,
1029
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:46,240
all right that's small chickens.
1030
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:48,280
Tiny is not folding.
1031
00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:50,400
We might have
to make a full bid on Lonrho.
1032
00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:52,840
You could sell Channel 9?
1033
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:55,240
That is the jewel in the crown.
1034
00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:57,080
No,
there has got to be another way.
1035
00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:59,800
We've got 27 million
in interest repayments
1036
00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:02,320
on our current loans,
due by the end of the week.
1037
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:04,720
Come on, Alan,
come and join the party.
1038
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:06,480
Alright, Darling.
I'll be there in just a sec.
1039
00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:08,880
-Don't be too long.
-I won’t.
1040
00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:14,680
We need to get our hands
on the Bell Resources cash.
1041
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:18,120
Right, there's 1.2 billion
dollars just sitting there.
1042
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:20,480
That'd work, wouldn't it?
1043
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:24,840
Good man!
1044
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:26,120
Make it happen.
1045
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:27,840
Try to relax,
you look like curse.
1046
00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:33,280
"The Bond Group of Companies"
1047
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:37,400
I want a copy
of this sent to every bank,
1048
00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:41,480
every financial institution
that does business with Bond.
1049
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:45,600
And mark it...
1050
00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:48,720
a gift from Tiny.
1051
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:52,880
You could say that Alan Bond
1052
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:54,840
has been having a taxing time.
1053
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:57,720
Alan Bond has built his empire
1054
00:51:58,040 --> 00:51:59,760
and earned a certain reputation
1055
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:01,720
by being a big risk-taker.
1056
00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:03,520
He draws a lot of heat.
1057
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:06,720
He won’t wear
criticism from this man.
1058
00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:08,240
Britain’s Tiny Rowland.
1059
00:52:08,720 --> 00:52:11,880
Their takeover battle
has turned into a dirty war.
1060
00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:14,960
Tiny Rowland was a former
member of the Hitler Youth.
1061
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:18,800
I find it offensive to be
disparaged by someone like him.
1062
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:22,560
Alan Bond claims
that a report on his finances
1063
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:26,040
prepared by Tiny Rowland
has done him great damage.
1064
00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:29,840
But Tiny Rowland
says that your debt level
1065
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:31,560
is so serious that in fact
1066
00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:34,080
your corporation
is technically insolvent.
1067
00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:35,760
Of course that
document’s not true.
1068
00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:37,200
It’s full of lies.
1069
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:39,320
The debt levels
were never the debt levels
1070
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:40,880
expressed in that document.
1071
00:52:48,720 --> 00:52:50,520
Ah, here we go.
1072
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:54,280
Tiny’s called Bond Corp
1073
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:55,880
“The South Sea Bubble of Debt”.
1074
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:57,000
I have read it, Peter.
1075
00:52:57,480 --> 00:52:58,600
That’s pure Tiny.
1076
00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:00,280
Nobody will believe it.
1077
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:03,280
-How’s Valerie?
-Oh.
1078
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:04,480
You should stay for a drink.
1079
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:09,840
I don’t know
if my heart could handle it.
1080
00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:12,480
I got a wife
waiting for me at home.
1081
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:16,640
Haven’t we all.
1082
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:31,720
Hi, I’m Tracey Tyler.
1083
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,000
Pleased to meet you,
Tracey Tyler.
1084
00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:37,960
I’m Alan Bond.
1085
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:39,880
Oh,
I know who you are, Mr. Bond.
1086
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:48,280
Thanks, Darling.
1087
00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:24,920
-Hi.
1088
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:27,640
Alan,
what are you, you can’t just...
1089
00:54:27,720 --> 00:54:28,760
I was in the neighborhood.
1090
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:30,600
It was cold out so...
1091
00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:33,800
Look,
I wanted to show you something.
1092
00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:39,640
Looks like you, don’t you think?
1093
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:41,200
Only younger.
1094
00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:46,440
-Why are you showing me this?
1095
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:48,800
I thought you’d be happy for me.
1096
00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:50,960
Her name’s Tracey. We’re dating.
1097
00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:52,480
I couldn’t be happier.
1098
00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:55,840
Well I’m really
pleased for you, Alan.
1099
00:54:57,240 --> 00:54:59,320
It makes it easier
for me to tell you my news.
1100
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:01,520
I’m moving to Scotland.
1101
00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:03,440
Scotland?
1102
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:05,840
-What for?
-I’m getting married.
1103
00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:12,040
Who to?
1104
00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:13,160
No one you know.
1105
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:16,800
So listen he’s coming
for dinner. You can’t stay.
1106
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:21,960
Yes, of course.
1107
00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:26,760
And Alan,
I'm going to need my key back.
1108
00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:58,440
The rumor
mill's been working overtime
1109
00:55:58,520 --> 00:55:59,800
this year for Alan Bond.
1110
00:55:59,960 --> 00:56:03,280
His considerable empire deflated
by unfavorable publicity,
1111
00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:05,080
unfavorable credit ratings,
1112
00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:06,800
some unfavorable connections.
1113
00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:08,400
Now more than ever
1114
00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:09,600
the pressure is on Alan Bond
1115
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:11,000
and his core business
1116
00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:12,760
to account their
true state of affairs.
1117
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:14,400
I can assure you
1118
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:15,880
that Tiny Rowland’s document
1119
00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:17,160
is nothing but lies
1120
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:18,520
and pure fiction.
1121
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:20,480
Bond Corp is stronger than ever.
1122
00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:23,080
We’re a diverse
and dynamic company,
1123
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:25,000
with growth in
mining, brewing...
1124
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:26,160
and media
1125
00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:27,400
including Channel 9.
1126
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:30,160
The number one
network in Australia.
1127
00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:35,040
The number one.
1128
00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:40,280
We’re on the threshold
of an exciting new era.
1129
00:56:40,720 --> 00:56:42,320
Prudence, wisdom,
1130
00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:45,640
integrity
1131
00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:46,840
and optimism...
1132
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:47,960
will guide Bond Corp
1133
00:56:48,240 --> 00:56:49,600
strongly into the future.
1134
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:52,480
Thank you.
1135
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:54,080
- Liar!
- Boo!
1136
00:56:57,400 --> 00:56:58,400
Right...
1137
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:00,520
You are
trying to bankrupt us.
1138
00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:02,360
I understand.
I understand. I know.
1139
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:04,200
In the words of Napoleon,
1140
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:06,400
“The most essential
quality of a general
1141
00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:07,840
is firmness of character
1142
00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:11,080
and resolution
to conquer at any price”.
1143
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:12,760
So that’s what I did.
1144
00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:14,840
I kept moving forward
1145
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:16,960
and never looked back.
1146
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:25,120
I’ve heard “Sunflowers”
could be up for sale.
1147
00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:26,920
I think I prefer it to “Irises”.
1148
00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:28,680
What do you think?
1149
00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:32,120
We’ll have to sell Channel 9.
1150
00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:34,320
-Very funny.
1151
00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:35,400
What’s funny?
1152
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:37,560
No, you can’t do that.
1153
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:39,200
I have been working my curse---
1154
00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:40,920
You said it was
the jewel in the crown.
1155
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:43,240
-Curse Alan!
1156
00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:45,480
Let’s hope you
get what you paid for it.
1157
00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:47,760
Kerry Packer
1158
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:49,760
predicts the end
of the Bond empire
1159
00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:53,360
and says he is not being greedy
trying to regain the 9 Network.
1160
00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:55,520
Bond is reportedly
selling the network
1161
00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:57,000
back to its previous owner
1162
00:57:57,280 --> 00:57:58,880
for less than half
of what he sold them for.
1163
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:00,320
Of course I
thought he would pay it
1164
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:01,400
or I wouldn’t have sold.
1165
00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,320
Mr. Packer
commented after the deal
1166
00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:05,680
"You only get
one Bond in your life,
1167
00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:08,320
-and I’ve had mine".
1168
00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:10,120
That’s it!
1169
00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:11,760
-You said it Kerry!
1170
00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:13,400
There’s only one Alan Bond.
1171
00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:16,320
And he’s going to come back
bigger and stronger than ever.
1172
00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:31,040
Ho! Ho! Ho!
1173
00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:40,280
She's gonna catch you.
1174
00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:48,640
Ho! Ho! Ho!
Merry Christmas!
1175
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:50,000
G’day mate.
1176
00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:52,240
Cuddles for Santa.
1177
00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:53,320
You been good?
1178
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:55,000
Oh we will see about that.
1179
00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:57,040
Merry Christmas everybody.
1180
00:58:58,000 --> 00:58:59,000
It’s Santa.
1181
00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:00,360
It’s Santa.
1182
00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:01,840
...let’s see what
we have got here.
1183
00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:03,760
-Has everybody been good?
1184
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:04,920
All right, what have we got?
1185
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:06,440
Oh, look at this big one.
1186
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,000
Merry Christmas.
Now what do you say to Santa?
1187
00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:10,120
Thank you.
1188
00:59:10,280 --> 00:59:11,320
That’s more like it!
1189
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:13,480
Go off and enjoy your presents.
Who else have we got?
1190
00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:15,440
I see a young lass over there.
1191
00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:17,720
What about you love, hey?
1192
00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:19,640
You been good this year?
1193
00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:21,360
Come on sweet heart hey.
1194
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:22,800
Let’s come and see
1195
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:25,560
what Santa
has got Grandma shall we?
1196
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:27,800
-Come on love.
1197
00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:30,040
Let’s go and have
a look and see what you got.
1198
00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:32,520
Come on.
Only little things this year.
1199
00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:34,520
That’s the way, Sweetheart.
1200
00:59:34,640 --> 00:59:35,640
You sound a bit puffed, Santa.
1201
00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:38,640
Nah, nah it’s all good,
Sweetheart it’s been long run.
1202
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:39,920
You're such an idiot, Alan.
1203
00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:43,160
Well you won’t think Santa's
an idiot in a minute Sweetheart.
1204
00:59:44,440 --> 00:59:46,160
Now I've heard
you've been very good.
1205
00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:48,880
And for good people, wait there.
1206
00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:51,480
Ta-da!
1207
00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:54,120
Ha!
1208
00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:58,160
Only the best
for Grandma this year huh?
1209
01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:01,440
Well what do you think?
1210
01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:03,480
-Nice.
-It's nice?
1211
01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:05,080
Very nice.
1212
01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:09,840
Do you love it?
1213
01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:12,840
Yes, yes, okay.
I love it!
1214
01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:15,400
Did Alan do good?
1215
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:18,320
Alan done good.
1216
01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:21,480
Since January Bond Corps
1217
01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:23,560
price has tumbled
from a dollar eighty.
1218
01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:26,720
That’s a market loss
of around 300 million dollars.
1219
01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:28,640
Alan Bond has gone through life
1220
01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:29,720
buying companies
and selling them.
1221
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:31,200
Perhaps
the worst news of all
1222
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:34,000
came last week with
Bond Corp’s failure to pay a
1223
01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:36,480
35 million dollar
interim dividend on time.
1224
01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:37,920
If you roll the dice
1225
01:00:38,120 --> 01:00:39,800
and double the bets
every time you roll them,
1226
01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:41,760
eventually they
come out the wrong way.
1227
01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:43,840
The company blamed
the delay on an over sight,
1228
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:47,040
but the market wondered about
possible cash flow problems.
1229
01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:49,880
Alright,
1230
01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:51,440
any good ideas?
1231
01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:52,920
Leave the country?
1232
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:14,280
What’s this?
1233
01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:24,880
Merry Christmas.
1234
01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:26,480
What? Oh!
1235
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:37,200
We have one hour
to repay 800 million dollars.
1236
01:01:37,600 --> 01:01:40,160
Looking all of her
three million-dollar price tag
1237
01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:44,080
Drumbeat was a few tacks away
from a maiden Sydney Hobart win.
1238
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:49,640
Drumbeat crossed the finish line
thirty miles ahead of Ragamuffin
1239
01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:53,360
unaware he was sailing into
bad financial news last night
1240
01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:55,520
Alan Bond reported
his biggest yachting win
1241
01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:57,200
since the 1983 America’s Cup.
1242
01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:00,120
-Hey.
1243
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:01,360
Oh.
1244
01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:03,040
How about that huh?
1245
01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:04,320
Bond Brewing is in receivership.
1246
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:20,840
Pete?
1247
01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:23,760
-Pete?
1248
01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:27,240
Peter! Peter!
1249
01:02:28,320 --> 01:02:29,480
-Peter!
1250
01:02:30,120 --> 01:02:31,120
Pete!
1251
01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:39,880
A bloody brain tumor.
1252
01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:43,120
I told you to relax.
1253
01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:53,520
It’s a very sad time...
1254
01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:56,000
losing Peter Beckwith
at such a young age.
1255
01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:58,320
He was always
a stellar performer,
1256
01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:00,320
but I think the...
1257
01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:03,560
brain tumor did have effect on
his decision-making in the end.
1258
01:03:03,760 --> 01:03:05,360
Would you care
to comment about what Alan Bond
1259
01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:06,800
has said about your husband?
1260
01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:12,400
I think it the most disgraceful
thing I have ever heard my life.
1261
01:03:12,760 --> 01:03:15,440
There were a number of deals
I left in Peter’s hands which...
1262
01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:17,760
unfortunately proved
not to be the best option.
1263
01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:19,800
Are you saying it
was Mr. Beckwith’s fault
1264
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:21,520
the company is
in a state of free fall?
1265
01:03:21,640 --> 01:03:23,680
Well, we are a long
way from free falling.
1266
01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:27,320
And of course I am
not one to cast blame but,
1267
01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:29,200
the medical
reports can’t be denied.
1268
01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:32,160
My husband worked
tirelessly for Bond Corporation.
1269
01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:35,560
He was always left
to clean up Alan’s messes.
1270
01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:37,560
And do you
blame Alan for his death?
1271
01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:43,800
I started this
company from scratch.
1272
01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:46,000
out of a little
shop in Fremantle.
1273
01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:50,200
I built it into a
multi-billion dollar enterprise
1274
01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:52,520
with interests in mining, media,
1275
01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:54,720
real estate,
1276
01:03:54,800 --> 01:03:56,080
communications, brewing,
1277
01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:58,120
steel, farming oh...
1278
01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:00,760
and I won a little
thing called the America’s Cup,
1279
01:04:02,240 --> 01:04:04,480
for the first time in 132 years.
1280
01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:07,960
And now you want me out of here?
1281
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:11,240
Well good-bye gentlemen.
1282
01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:14,160
The company I built...
1283
01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:16,800
is all yours.
1284
01:04:27,400 --> 01:04:28,640
Napoleon also said,
1285
01:04:29,120 --> 01:04:31,120
“You must not
fear death, my lads.
1286
01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:33,440
defy him,
1287
01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:35,560
and you drive him
into the enemy’s ranks".
1288
01:04:37,600 --> 01:04:38,920
But then he lost at Waterloo.
1289
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:47,880
If you owe 1.2 billion
dollars of other people's money,
1290
01:04:48,560 --> 01:04:49,960
there's only one thing to do...
1291
01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:58,960
Drive fast!
1292
01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:06,000
I had to stave off bankruptcy.
1293
01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:08,880
I needed time to shuffle a few
hundred million dollars around,
1294
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:10,720
transfer
property into trust funds,
1295
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:13,120
and set up offshore accounts
in the Island of Jersey.
1296
01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:16,400
Catch me if you can, you curse.
1297
01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:08,360
I managed to keep the
curses at bay for twelve months.
1298
01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:10,120
Took some ducking and weaving.
1299
01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:13,000
But every delay meant
I could protect my future.
1300
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,160
Alan Bond.
You've been served.
1301
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:19,680
You curse!
1302
01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,680
What do you want from me?
I've got nothing left.
1303
01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:28,880
You're not really broke,
are you?
1304
01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:39,400
Hello, my love.
1305
01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:41,960
I want a divorce.
1306
01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:44,200
I'll get you a horse.
1307
01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:52,640
Alan?
1308
01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:57,880
The lawyer's here.
1309
01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:12,400
Okay, Mr. Bond,
1310
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:22,720
I'll leave you to it.
1311
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:29,640
-Are you sure about this?
1312
01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:31,800
Yes.
1313
01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:35,960
I can't really see an upside.
1314
01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:38,800
For you.
1315
01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:40,560
I know that our marriage
1316
01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:42,520
was never going to be
conventional Alan, but...
1317
01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:45,800
it's time.
1318
01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:47,320
I am who I am.
1319
01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:50,720
I'm still the
same man you married.
1320
01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:52,160
I think that's the problem.
1321
01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:58,520
You don't regret
marrying me, do you?
1322
01:08:01,720 --> 01:08:03,400
I could have
danced with anyone, Alan.
1323
01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:05,680
I chose you.
1324
01:08:20,480 --> 01:08:22,160
I'll always love you Alan.
1325
01:08:46,440 --> 01:08:47,720
Red, we're here!
1326
01:08:48,760 --> 01:08:50,040
-Finally.
1327
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:53,880
So good to see you.
1328
01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:55,000
Hello.
1329
01:08:56,600 --> 01:08:58,160
We're going to need
some champagne.
1330
01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:06,640
-You're too late.
-No it's not too late.
1331
01:09:06,720 --> 01:09:07,720
You're not married.
1332
01:09:08,280 --> 01:09:09,480
I flew all this way.
1333
01:09:09,920 --> 01:09:12,160
The last time you did that was
to show me a photo of your...
1334
01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:14,800
-whatever she was.
-I was a fool.
1335
01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:16,480
I admit it!
Okay, I admit it!
1336
01:09:19,240 --> 01:09:20,680
No, Alan, don't.
1337
01:09:20,960 --> 01:09:22,080
I have changed.
1338
01:09:22,160 --> 01:09:23,160
I promise.
1339
01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:26,320
I'm not Eileen.
I don't need rings.
1340
01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:27,840
I got my own life now.
1341
01:09:28,320 --> 01:09:29,320
Okay, I am good at what I do
1342
01:09:29,400 --> 01:09:32,120
and people like working with me
and I love living in London--
1343
01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:33,200
I know.
1344
01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:34,400
Okay, I know.
1345
01:09:34,480 --> 01:09:35,480
And from now on,
1346
01:09:35,720 --> 01:09:37,280
it is going to be Diana first,
1347
01:09:37,480 --> 01:09:38,480
business second.
1348
01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:40,600
No it is Diana first,
everything else second.
1349
01:09:41,120 --> 01:09:43,480
Alright,
I divorced Eileen for you.
1350
01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:45,880
You're the only one...
1351
01:09:46,280 --> 01:09:47,680
who truly understands me.
1352
01:09:49,480 --> 01:09:50,480
The only one.
1353
01:09:52,280 --> 01:09:53,840
And I know you still love me.
1354
01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:56,760
I can't do this without you.
1355
01:09:58,400 --> 01:10:01,480
I don't want your
madness in my life anymore Alan.
1356
01:10:02,320 --> 01:10:03,320
I'm tired.
1357
01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:05,960
It's too much for me.
1358
01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:12,040
-I don't need you.
-But I need you!
1359
01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:17,000
I love you.
1360
01:10:26,400 --> 01:10:27,960
Case 379.
1361
01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:29,800
Mr. Bond?
1362
01:10:33,400 --> 01:10:34,800
Mr. Bond,
please answer the question?
1363
01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:37,280
I have no idea.
1364
01:10:37,360 --> 01:10:38,520
Do the best you can, Mr. Bond.
1365
01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:40,520
-I...
1366
01:10:40,600 --> 01:10:42,160
I can't
remember anything at all.
1367
01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:43,600
You received 200 million dollars
1368
01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:44,760
into your personal bank account
1369
01:10:44,840 --> 01:10:46,640
and you have no
idea what you did with it?
1370
01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:47,840
I've suffered a stroke.
1371
01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:49,760
It's affected
my memory, your honor.
1372
01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:52,280
-I'm a sick man.
-And the 1.2 billion dollars
1373
01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:53,360
you stripped
from Bell Resources?
1374
01:10:53,440 --> 01:10:54,680
I can't remember anything.
1375
01:10:54,760 --> 01:10:57,160
Did you,
at any time during the 1980's
1376
01:10:57,360 --> 01:10:59,160
set up off shore trust
accounts for your own use?
1377
01:10:59,240 --> 01:11:00,240
I don't recall.
1378
01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:01,640
What the amount or
the fact that you stole it?
1379
01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:03,520
I take offence to that.
You said that yesterday...
1380
01:11:03,600 --> 01:11:05,960
I suppose that's possible
but I just don't remember.
1381
01:11:06,040 --> 01:11:07,440
I would suggest to you,
Mr. Bond...
1382
01:11:07,720 --> 01:11:08,880
I have never seen it before.
1383
01:11:08,960 --> 01:11:10,000
or now you do not recall?
1384
01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:11,480
I can't remember anything.
1385
01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:12,560
Mr. Bond, does it come...
1386
01:11:13,280 --> 01:11:14,640
This goes on for quite a while.
1387
01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:16,320
Questions and denials.
1388
01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:18,800
It's not a lie
if you can't remember.
1389
01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:22,280
- Not guilty.
1390
01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:28,240
I was able to convince the
judge of my health issues,
1391
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:29,840
even though I was bankrupt
1392
01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:31,400
they never got my money.
1393
01:11:31,960 --> 01:11:32,960
But,
1394
01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:34,960
that didn't stop the
curses coming for me.
1395
01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:38,480
I was charged with unfair
1396
01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:40,400
inducement over
the Rothwell's rescues.
1397
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:42,840
-Guilty.
-Fraud, over the sale
1398
01:11:42,920 --> 01:11:45,240
-of a Manet painting.
-Guilty.
1399
01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:47,240
And stripping
money from Bell Resources.
1400
01:11:48,720 --> 01:11:49,760
Technically correct,
1401
01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:52,400
but was that worth
four years in prison?
1402
01:11:53,160 --> 01:11:54,520
Guilty.
1403
01:11:57,120 --> 01:11:58,440
Do I regret what happened?
1404
01:11:58,880 --> 01:11:59,960
Would I have
done anything differently?
1405
01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:01,840
You bet.
1406
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:04,840
For one thing I would
have married Diana sooner.
1407
01:12:08,560 --> 01:12:10,200
And I would've
made sure Tiny Rowland
1408
01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:12,280
was dead before
I made a move on Lonrho.
1409
01:12:14,200 --> 01:12:15,800
Like rolling in mud with a pig.
1410
01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:21,160
I wouldn't have gotten
into bed with Laurie Connell.
1411
01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:25,960
I would've driven a harder
bargain with Kerry Packer.
1412
01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:35,840
And I wouldn't
have got caught.
1413
01:12:47,640 --> 01:12:49,840
Now of course,
other people failed me
1414
01:12:50,720 --> 01:12:52,560
on many of these points,
1415
01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:55,000
many of these aspects
1416
01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:56,480
of business ethics.
1417
01:13:25,240 --> 01:13:26,240
Hey love.
1418
01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:33,200
Alan what is next, Alan?
1419
01:13:35,400 --> 01:13:38,000
Look, please, I ask you to...
1420
01:13:38,240 --> 01:13:41,680
just, respect my privacy and
let me adjust to a quiet life.
1421
01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:43,520
-Thank you. Thank you.
- What about business?
1422
01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:45,400
I don't think I'll ever be
running a business again.
1423
01:13:45,600 --> 01:13:47,440
I just going to take it easy,
1424
01:13:47,520 --> 01:13:48,520
walk the dog,
1425
01:13:48,600 --> 01:13:49,600
go for a swim and
1426
01:13:49,680 --> 01:13:50,760
spend time with the wife.
1427
01:13:50,960 --> 01:13:52,400
Have you heard from Eileen?
1428
01:13:52,760 --> 01:13:53,960
Do you have any regrets
1429
01:13:55,320 --> 01:13:57,040
Alan?
Has it changed you Alan?
1430
01:13:57,360 --> 01:13:58,360
Welcome back Mr. Bond.
1431
01:13:58,440 --> 01:13:59,760
G'day, Angelo,
good to see you mate.
1432
01:14:11,160 --> 01:14:12,160
This is great, Love.
1433
01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:13,440
Oh, you deserve
a bit of a treat, Darling.
1434
01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:14,520
Good on you.
1435
01:14:30,720 --> 01:14:32,560
-Just hang on a sec.
1436
01:14:35,040 --> 01:14:36,040
It’s South Africa.
1437
01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:37,760
About the diamond mine.
1438
01:14:38,760 --> 01:14:39,760
I better take it.
1439
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:41,080
-Alan--
-I won't be long.
1440
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:42,800
Hello.
1441
01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:44,640
Yes, it is.
1442
01:15:05,600 --> 01:15:06,760
Okay put him on.
1443
01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:11,680
What?
1444
01:15:12,320 --> 01:15:13,360
You think I should have changed?
1445
01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:15,840
-This isn't some fairly tale.
1446
01:15:16,560 --> 01:15:17,560
But don't worry,
1447
01:15:17,760 --> 01:15:19,280
all that bad stuff
happened in the 80's.
1448
01:15:20,040 --> 01:15:21,040
It'll never happened again.
1449
01:15:22,320 --> 01:15:23,440
Anyway I better take this.
1450
01:15:24,440 --> 01:15:25,680
Can't leave a deal hanging.
1451
01:15:27,480 --> 01:15:28,480
Alan Bond.
1452
01:15:36,520 --> 01:15:37,800
I have always been criticized
1453
01:15:37,880 --> 01:15:39,920
for thinking
too far into the future.
1454
01:15:40,280 --> 01:15:41,560
Not having my
feet on the ground.
1455
01:15:42,360 --> 01:15:43,360
Mr. Bond.
1456
01:15:45,960 --> 01:15:46,960
Well I would like
to keep it at home
1457
01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:48,280
and Alan would like
to keep it in the office but
1458
01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:49,360
we'll have
to see who will win out.
1459
01:15:56,920 --> 01:15:59,560
Well I
married Alan for the man.
1460
01:15:59,640 --> 01:16:00,640
I didn't marry the situation.
