1
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:04,960
You're a tosser.

2
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:08,080
Cheers, Abs.

3
00:00:08,120 --> 00:00:10,880
I was going to go on a long voyage
of self-discovery,

4
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:12,600
but I don't have to bother now!

5
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:18,280
Your father came all this way to
make peace and you turned your back
on him!He's 30 years too late.

6
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:22,640
He comes all this way, hoping you
might give him a chance to explain.

7
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,680
You reckon that's why he's come?
Yes.

8
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:29,920
He probably needs a kidney.Oh,
don't be such a prat.A prat?Yes.

9
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:33,960
Well, am I a prat or a tosser?
Oh, Kenny!

10
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,040
He walked away. He should've kept on
walking.Oh, that's really generous.

11
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:44,000
Yeah, it is. Save everyone
a lot of bother.Snap out of it.
You're acting like a pillock.

12
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,080
Oh, a pillock?Yes.

13
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:53,360
I'm a tosser, a prat AND a pillock?
One day you'll wake up and hate
yourself for not taking this chance.

14
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,880
I've already woken up
and hated myself.

15
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:03,160
When you're a kid and your old man
walks out, who do you blame? Him?
Course not, cos he's your dad.

16
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:09,720
You blame yourself and you hate
yourself. YOU know nothing about
this.Oh, yes, I'm completely thick.

17
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:14,600
I thought you were a kind, forgiving,
big-hearted...Pillock?Yes.

18
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:21,080
You should've stopped at the bit
where you said you was thick.The
kids like him.Bring on manipulation.

19
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,440
Field your best team.People change.
I bet he's not the same man you knew.

20
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:29,200
I never knew him.I like him, too.

21
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:30,320
Let him adopt you, then.

22
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,880
Kenny, did it change your life
when he walked out?

23
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,000
Having him back
might change your life!

24
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:42,440
We didn't need each other. If
it ain't broke...He needs you now.

25
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:47,400
Well, he's too late.
I checked my best-before date.
It's expired. I've gone off.

26
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,880

Yes-yes-yes-yes-yes...

27
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,920

Yes-yes-yes-yes-yes...

28
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,480

Yes-yes-yes-yes-yes...

29
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,880
You're a fine first mate.Thank you.
Are you from London, the same, then?

30
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:10,640
They had two moulds, but they
dropped one.That's the sort
of thing Kenny would say.Is it?

31
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,720
You two are a lot alike.
That's a bit scary, innit?

32
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:19,360
You said it. I didn't.
Let's head into port.To the left?

33
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,760
No. Home-port, not left-port.
Aye-aye, Captain.

34
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:30,800
A little to the right, helmsman.
A little to the Starbucks right
it is.Ah, now, steady as she goes.

35
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,120
Aye-aye, Captain.

36
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:39,520
You were never suited to that woman.
She's trouble in a skirt.

37
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,600
I can't help thinking about her.
You're not thinking with your head.

38
00:02:43,640 --> 00:02:48,560
I don't know what I was doing.
Curiosity got the better of you.

39
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:55,080
Got an appetite for a little English.
I can't blame you for that. Change
of scenery won't do you any harm.

40
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:59,600
Aye.
No English girl can
hold a candle to a wee Scots lass.

41
00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:03,960
but you wouldn't want to live there.

42
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,400
It was more serious than a holiday.

43
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:13,040
That's where you went wrong. Carolyn
is a gorgeous girl. If you weren't
so greedy, you'd still be with her.

44
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:14,440
I wasn't just messing, Jerry.

45
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,240
That's where you're wrong.
That's all you were doing.

46
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,760
And you're better off out of that!

47
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,360
I don't want to go back to her.

48
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,000
If she's smart,
she'll keep pushing you away

49
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,920
until that's the only thing you want.

50
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,520
You can't keep avoiding Carolyn.

51
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,840
Speak to her before this afternoon.

52
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,080
You've got to.
I have nothing to say to her.

53
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,600
But you've plenty to say to me
about it?

54
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,120
I can't accept what she's done.

55
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:52,640
You've got to draw a line between
who she is and what she's done.

56
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:57,160
There is no line, Douglas.
She took another life.

57
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,000
There's nothing to be said.

58
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,960
Maybe not now.Maybe not ever.

59
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,200

Yes-yes-yes-yes-yes...

60
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,800


61
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,240
Want a game of football?

62
00:04:16,280 --> 00:04:20,280
No, I've got to go in.
All right. See you later.

63
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,720
See you, then.
Bye, Peter.

64
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:29,920
See you later, Jerry.
Yeah.Shoes off before you go in the
house. Dirty clothes in the basket.

65
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:35,120
What's that?
A bucket for building sand castles.
It was buried in the rocks.

66
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:39,920
It's not really a bucket, is it?
It's almost as good as one.

67
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,200
Right, you've got three wishes.

68
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,360
Avoiding the ferry?

69
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:46,680
Granted.

70
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,080
Go on, another two.

71
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,200
Pun...the Ronansay Pun?

72
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,800
Two pieces of string, right,
walk into a pub...

73
00:04:54,840 --> 00:04:55,920
Run!

74
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,560
The Ronansay Run.

75
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,600
Here, do you think we can pawn it?

76
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,320
I'll ask Douglas.What, will he know?

77
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,720
Well, it obviously belongs to
someone. He might know whose it is.

78
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,240
Are you coming this afternoon?Yeah.

79
00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:15,120
Good.Here, how do you dress
for a scattering?

80
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,840
SHE PLAYS A FEW NOTES

81
00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:35,720
I thought maybe we should
stay overnight in Edinburgh,
leave on Friday?Did you?

82
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,960
Give us more time to look over
the campus.Aye. We'll see.

83
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,920
You used to sing.

84
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,000
Why don't you any more?

85
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,480
Don't have a call to.

86
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,000
Never used to need one.

87
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:50,840
I forget the words.

88
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,440
Are you going like that?You go on.

89
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,960
I've got things to do here.
It would be good for you to get out.

90
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,600
Never liked Murdo. Don't see why I
should go.Do it for Malcolm, then.

91
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,360
He won't miss me.I will.
You'd better get over that.

92
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,440
You'll be off again soon.

93
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,000
That gives us a good reason
to spend some time together now.

94
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,600
You've got an answer for everything.

95
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,200
I see I won't win.No, you won't.

96
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,840
I let him call me Captain and
by the end he even gave me a salute.

97
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,400
What, two fingers?
No, no, with the whole hand!

98
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:34,760
He's a good laugh. We're going
drinking tonight. Who knows
what trouble we'll get into!

99
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:39,520
I've just had a blinding thought. Why
don't you come with us?No, thanks.

100
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,160
He can tell a story, that Terry.

101
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,440
A nicer man you're not going to meet.

102
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:48,560
I nearly wet myself with him talking
about being a children's entertainer.

103
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:56,200
One lad thought he was invisible, so
he's trying to entertain an invisible
child and all his invisible mates.

104
00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:03,840
The boy didn't believe he was
invisible. He was pretending.Has he
told you that story, then?Yeah.

105
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:09,880
It was meant to be a surprise party,
but he came a day early
and ruined the surprise.

106
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:16,280
It was the boy's real birthday.
That's the one!But the party
was meant to be the next day.

107
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,560
The kid was so wound up
that he didn't have any mates,

108
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:23,880
he pretended that they were
invisible and he was, too.

109
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,640
Yeah, well, it's funnier
when he tells it.

110
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,400
Douglas!

111
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,360
You haven't seen Douglas, have you?

112
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,960
What are you stirring up now?

113
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,520
Look, Mary, you've got
the wrong idea about me.

114
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:53,800
Of course. You're a wonderful woman.
It's everyone else with the problem.

115
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,840
- Whatever.
- Aye, "Whatever," as you say.

116
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:04,760
YOU! You go about
ruining other people's lives
and all you can say is "Whatever."

117
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,600
I don't know where Douglas is.

118
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:13,560
Douglas!

119
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:32,960
With Murdo passing, I don't know,
we all lose a little something,

120
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,520
things that tie us together.

121
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,560
What have you got there?

122
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:47,600
Charley found it. It says
"The Ronansay Run". I thought
you might know who it belonged to.

123
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,960
Where'd Charley find it?

124
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,800
Buried in the sand on the beach.

125
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,320
We used to have a race here.

126
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:11,680
Crofters would bring horses
from all over - Skye, Barra, Uist.
Ah, it was a great day.

127
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,720
I haven't seen this cup
since I was a boy.

128
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:20,000
Few years after the war, it stopped.
I don't remember why.

129
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:24,240
It was a great day.
Who does it belong to, then?

130
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:31,680
It was kept in pride of place in the
winner's home until the next race.
I don't remember who won it last.

131
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:37,800
My father had a book
with the runners' names in it.
It will be there. I'll find it.

132
00:09:41,680 --> 00:09:44,200
I'm almost ready, Douglas.

133
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,400
We should do this before.

134
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,520
Easier in private.

135
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,240
There's nothing to be done.

136
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:56,760
OK.

137
00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,720
I was wrong to think
maybe we had things to say.

138
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,640
I've nothing to say to you.

139
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,000
I'm having the baby.

140
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:34,720
I've read this twice
and I can find no mention
of my great success as a father.

141
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:39,360
It's yesterday's paper.
Oh! That explains it, then.

142
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:46,200
You'll come with us, yeah?I'm
not very good around dead people.
Well, the people going are alive.

143
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,280
I haven't got a great track record
with the living, either.

144
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,520
Kenny's hoping you'll come.

145
00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:53,480
He wants to see you.

146
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:57,200
Spot the porkie.Yeah, well,
he hasn't realised it yet.

147
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:58,960
Do you love him?

148
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,320
Not fair.

149
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:02,720
You should.

150
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,760
Do you?

151
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,120
Do we have children
because we love them,

152
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:15,840
or is it our vanity that tricks us
into believing that we do when,
in fact, we really love ourselves?

153
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,760
This is bullshit.
It's not meant to be.

154
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,040
No.

155
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,160
It's a way of avoiding what you've
been avoiding for 30 years.

156
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:27,680
You think?Yeah. And it's good
because it makes you sound clever.

157
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:33,600
But you're scared
and clever is how you get past that.
Who's being clever, then?

158
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,640
FOOTSTEPS

159
00:11:35,680 --> 00:11:40,880
First!Not fair! You pushed me.You
were trying to block me.I was not.

160
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:47,480
First is worst!Are you coming?
I've never seen somebody who's
actually been burnt up before!Ugh!

161
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:52,400
Come on. ..Terry, take a deep breath
and get on with it.

162
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:21,080
Let's go stand with Terry and Abby.
I'm all right here.

163
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:26,800
We can see better from over there.
I'm fine here.I want to go and
stand with Terry.Well, go, then!

164
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:45,960
Sh-sh.

165
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:50,160
Ida, Peter and I would like
to thank you all for coming today.

166
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,480
Dad, too.

167
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,160
Dad wasn't much
for organised religion.

168
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,680
Never much for a to-do...

169
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,240
so I won't disappoint him in that.

170
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,480
Well, Murdo...

171
00:13:08,680 --> 00:13:11,720
Dad said the island was in him.

172
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:17,560
I figure the best thing I can do
is put him IN the island.

173
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:08,680
I know this was hard for you.
And I know you feel alone.

174
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:15,720
But I don't want you to worry about
Alistair standing by you because
that's where I'll be standing.

175
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,240
A double knot is what you want.

176
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,640
I can show you a sailor's knot later
that will keep your laces nice and
tidy.

177
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,880
You go on, Gordon. I'll catch up.
I don't mind waiting.
He'll catch us up.

178
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:40,120
We're not in a rush, are we?
Gordon, will you walk me down?

179
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:53,280
I was just looking for land mines.
Shall we get this done?Why not?

180
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,800
Well, you came here. You start.

181
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,320
My name's Terry Marsh.
I'm your father.

182
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,640
What am I supposed to say to that?

183
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,160
Nice to see you?

184
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,000
Fathers stick around. You left.

185
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,520
You haven't been my dad
since you walked out.

186
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:23,120
They didn't need
to find a replacement,
so the job was made redundant.

187
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:28,120
I was around, Kenny.What, dressed
as a clown at my tenth birthday?

188
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,760
Yeah, that was awful.
Well, it's awful when I tell it.

189
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:36,680
When YOU tell it, it's so funny,
Gordon almost wets himself.
I got the day wrong.

190
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:43,120
I didn't even know you were there,
anyway.Your mum didn't want me
around.So you dressed as a clown?

191
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:50,680
Mrs Doubtfire costume taken, was it?
She was angry. She didn't want me
sharing time with you.This is good.

192
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:57,240
We're progressing here. So, it's
her fault, is it?That's not what I
mean.Well, it is. You married her.

193
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,720
I didn't stop caring about you.
I stopped caring about YOU.

194
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:06,560
I watched you grow up.Yeah, sure.

195
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,600
I went to your school plays
when she wasn't around.

196
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:13,840
I remember once
when you were the...pink flamingo.

197
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:18,600
Of all the ones you could have
gone to and you went to that one?

198
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:22,880
You don't know how hard that was.
Oh, I do. I was the bloody flamingo.

199
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:29,720
Hard for me watching you
and not being able to talk to you,
telling you how proud I was.

200
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,640
You were proud of that, were you?
Well, I wasn't.

201
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:39,880
Proud of the way you were growing
up. I stopped trying after a while.
I couldn't take not seeing you.

202
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:44,880
So many times I wanted
to knock on your door when you lived
on that estate just to say hello.

203
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,720
But I was frightened how you'd react

204
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:53,920
and then when I did, I found out
you'd moved up here.So, then what?

205
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:58,320
You came here to ruin my life again.
Your life doesn't look ruined to me.

206
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:05,480
You're no expert on my life.I know.
I came up to see how you were. I
didn't think it would be this small.

207
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,040
Well, it's hard to hide, innit?

208
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,240
Yeah.

209
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,880
Well, I'm fine.

210
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:14,920
Ruined, but fine.

211
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:20,720
OK? So, job done.
Drop your guard, Kenny.
I can't do anything to hurt you.

212
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,680
Why did you leave?

213
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:28,480
I had to.That's not an answer.
That's a poor excuse.

214
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:34,920
OK, we've gone through this reunion
business. Thanks for listening
to me. You've turned out all right.

215
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,840
Why not tell Gordon you're my dad?

216
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:44,360
That's something we should discuss
before sharing, don't you think?
You told Abby.No, she guessed.

217
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:51,360
I wanted to tell you...
She guessed?!I'm here because you
are a part of me that I got wrong.

218
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:57,400
I've watched you with those kids.
You're good. Oh, I have to go.
Yeah, you're good at walking.

219
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,440
I'm not proud of it, Kenny.
Why did you leave?

220
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,680
To go to prison?

221
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,920
Join the Foreign Legion?

222
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,600
Get caught shagging someone else?

223
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:14,920
Hello?

224
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,920
I'm asking you a question.

225
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,600
You're unbelievable, you know that?

226
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,640
You come here. You want to get
all touchy-feely with me.

227
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:33,280
Share your loss, purge your soul
and reclaim your long lost son.

228
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:40,800
But you can't answer the one
question that needs an answer before
I can look at you with any respect.

229
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,720
I realised I was gay.

230
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,240
I had to go.

231
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,640
Oh, shit.

232
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:56,600
You stepped on the land mine...

233
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:02,720
..then it went off.
Last week I had no father.

234
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,240
This week I've got one who's gay!
What happens next week?

235
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:10,000
Focus on yourself. Don't worry
about his struggle.Yeah, right.

236
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:16,440
"Oh, meet my dad. He's gay.
I'm a freak of nature." Here, you
don't think it's genetic, do you?

237
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:22,480
What difference does it make
if he's gay?How many people
do you know who've got gay dads?

238
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:29,440
Look, he's put himself on the line to
tell you that. What's so odd is that
you're being such an arse about it.

239
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,840
Can we please not mention "arse"?

240
00:19:34,360 --> 00:19:41,000
Got a little Murdo, there.Ta.
No bother. He always liked coming
down here to watch the football.

241
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:42,520
McGowan?

242
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:48,200
I was hoping Kenny would join us.
Yeah, I imagine he could use
a drink.

243
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,520
Why didn't he go off
and do something heroic?

244
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:58,600
Like protect democracy
or go on a pilgrimage to Tibet
for spiritual truth? Lovely.

245
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:03,720
He told you the truth.
That's pretty heroic. Kenny...

246
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:11,080
he told you something about himself
that he didn't have to to help you
understand why he did what he did.

247
00:20:11,120 --> 00:20:15,960
You wanted to know. He gave you
what you wanted. Accept the gift.

248
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:17,960
Don't throw it back in his face.

249
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:19,320
I hate talking to you.

250
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,600
So, what am I going to do, then?

251
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:30,840
I don't remember the race,
but the stories of it
made you feel like you were there.

252
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:37,600
That's all anyone would talk about.
Why did it stop?I don't know.Murdo
would have known.We'll ask Malcolm.

253
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:42,880
Aye.Who won it the last time?In
my father's book, it says "McGowan".

254
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:47,680
Get it back to Marjorie before
she accuses you of nicking it.Aye.

255
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,800
Kenny...Abby.

256
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:57,600
Gordon.

257
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,080
What you drinking?

258
00:21:02,120 --> 00:21:06,120
I'm a lager lout.
I'll get it.It's OK, I'll get it.

259
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:10,640
No, Kenny. Let me.Gordon, I said
I'd get it.Kenny, let me!Gordon!
I want to buy my father a drink!

260
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,320
OK?

261
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,000
Two pints of lager please, Douglas.

262
00:21:23,360 --> 00:21:24,960
This year?

263
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,160
Oh, aye. Right away.

264
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,440
Abs?Glass of white wine,
please, Douglas.

265
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,600
Thank you.

266
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,880
I'm surprised.You're surprised?!

267
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,360
I thought you'd be a Babycham man.

268
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,520
It wasn't very good for my figure.

269
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:46,920
(Thank you, Abby.Pleasure.)

270
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:50,760
You've got yourself a fine father
there, Kenny. No doubt of that.

271
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:52,640
Yes, he does.

272
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:00,360
Single malt?

273
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:02,680
Aye.

274
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,160
All around!

275
00:22:05,360 --> 00:22:08,200
I'll do that, Malcolm.
Thank you, Gordon.

276
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,080
What time is it?

277
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:27,400
Just water in that one, Douglas.
Carolyn isn't drinking.

278
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,440
To Murdo!
ALL: To Murdo!

279
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,080
Well...

280
00:22:51,120 --> 00:22:53,000
I think we should have a shindig!

281
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,240
MUSIC PLAYS

282
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,960
Come on, I'll buy you a drink.
Wet your whistle.

283
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:14,440
- They'll all be in there.
- Good. Face them down. Don't let
them decide how you live your life.

284
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:22,160
I've had enough of people telling me
what to do.

285
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:27,440
Don't let them drive you away
like they did me. Courage, Ally.

286
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,520
Let's spit in their eye.

287
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,040
Your father is a good dancer.

288
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,240
Yeah, you should see him do ballet.

289
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,280
We're here for you.I know.

290
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:13,080
You just ask.I will.I'll keep
your mother on a short leash.
Och, you've no chance of that.

291
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:19,040
I don't know how to thank you.You
don't need to.You're very special.

292
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:23,040
You're embarrassing me.
You belong together. You know that?

293
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,680
I think your dad has his eye on Abby.

294
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,040
You do?Ah, yes.

295
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,280
You have no idea, have you?

296
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,520
- Can I buy you a drink, Carolyn?
- I'm not drinking.

297
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:54,680
- You're not drinking with me?
- No, Alistair. I'm not drinking.

298
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:04,880
He shouldn't be drinking.

299
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,440
You know what happens.
He's got that boy to look after.

300
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:15,360
- Don't you be telling me
what to do, Douglas.
- Douglas, don't. It's Murdo's day.

301
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,880
Murdo would agree with me.Why don't
you look me in the eye, Douglas?

302
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:19,600
I know what drink does to you.

303
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,280
Jerry, go home.

304
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,640
That's what they do to you, Ally.

305
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,640
Put you in a box. Never let you out.

306
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,720
Go and look after your boy.

307
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:41,040
Jerry, Jerry, I'll buy you a drink...
if you'll raise a glass to Murdo.

308
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,120
That's what I was intending to do.

309
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,440
A pint, Douglas, if you please.

310
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:23,680
HOOFBEATS

311
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,520
INAUDIBLE

312
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,280
Come on, Ronansay!

313
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,640
Run!

314
00:26:59,360 --> 00:27:01,360
Douglas?

315
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:07,640
Coming back in?

316
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,360
I just didn't want to ruin the day.

317
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,320
I was wrong, Malcolm.

318
00:27:14,360 --> 00:27:17,720
It wasn't the right thing
or the right time.

319
00:27:22,120 --> 00:27:24,480
Your dad would have been
proud of you today.

320
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,320
I was proud of him.

321
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,440
Why did we stop the Run?

322
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:39,080
Murdo ever tell you?Men took
their horses off to war with them.

323
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,800
Dad always said the women
cried more for the horses going
than for the men.

324
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:48,840
I loved that race.

325
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,080
I never saw one myself.

326
00:27:51,120 --> 00:27:53,880
Murdo told me about them
every summer.

327
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:56,800
I felt like I had.

328
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,160
You going to come back in?

329
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,160
I'll be along later.

330
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:03,920
You go on.

331
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,880
What you doing?

332
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:29,440
Nothing.

333
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,800
They look so peaceful.

334
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:40,280
Untroubled.

335
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,440
Wouldn't it be good
if they never knew anything else?

336
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:52,320
You can't protect them
from everything, you know.No.

337
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,360
We have to teach them to be strong.

338
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,040
Yeah.

339
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,120
I'm going to pop over
to the McGowans'.

340
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:08,760
You were strong today.

341
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,440
I was pretending.
You could have fooled me.

342
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,240
I almost fooled myself.

343
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,600
So, was it meant to change my life?

344
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:21,680
What?

345
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:23,680
The father and son reunion.

346
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:25,360
I don't feel anything.

347
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,920
I wanted to. I tried to.
But I don't.

348
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:30,280
Nothing.

349
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,040
So, what was the point?

350
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,000
It might change his.

351
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:41,920
But I look at Alfie,

352
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:43,520
all of me...

353
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:46,080
..just...

354
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,720
I look at him.

355
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:50,760
I don't come close.

356
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,120


357
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,720


358
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,200


359
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:23,520


360
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:32,360

a no-good mill-working man
from Massachusetts

361
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,600


362
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:41,120

to feed

363
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,360


364
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,560


365
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:58,840

but an awful boring job

366
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:05,120

to take me through the morning

367
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,480


368
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:14,080

and remember

369
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:24,160

to the days back on the farm

370
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:29,520

as I'm swinging on his arms

371
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:35,560

of the storms out on Lake Erie

372
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:39,160

and fortunes

373
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,720


374
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:45,160


375
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,240


376
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:54,360

use my body for a tool

377
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:57,240


378
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:00,440


379
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:04,040


380
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:09,080

ought to stand a better chance.

381
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,320
KNOCK AT DOOR

382
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,120
Marjorie?

383
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:25,720
Sorry to call by so late.
I wanted to return this to you.

384
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:30,120
Charley found it buried on the beach.
And what was she doing on the beach?

385
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,800
Marjorie, I'm just trying
to return the cup.

386
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:40,480
If she comes on my property again,
I'll box her ears.Touch her
and I'll rip your heart out.

387
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:44,320
MARJORIE LAUGHS
That was meant to scare you.

388
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,880
Oh, it did. It did.

389
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,680
You've got bite on you. That's good.

390
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:54,080
You raise two kids by yourself,
you get the bite for free.
Don't I know.

391
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,160
My father won this.

392
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:06,200
Heather was about eight
when she took it down to the sand
and the waves stole it away.

393
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,800
Thank Charley for me.

394
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,120
I will.

395
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:14,600
Oh, um, Heather must get her talent
from you.

396
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,440
Let's not get too friendly.
Goodnight.

397
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:28,400
That's when he knew that the bear
was interested in something more than
what was in his pocket.Yeah, yeah.

398
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:33,920
When he was...It's a terrific story,
but I gotta love you and leave you.
Said the actress to the bishop.

399
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:37,720
You're the most!
Goodnight!Night, see you.

400
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:50,240
There you are. I came back here
just to see if I could find you.

401
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,680
I'm glad you came.

402
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,400
Not here tonight.

403
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,840
In general.

404
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:08,600
So am I. It means a lot to me
that you let me back in your life.

405
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,160
I haven't.

406
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,280
You're my dad. Great.

407
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,520
I don't feel anything for you.

408
00:34:22,720 --> 00:34:24,560
I might.

409
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:28,680
Because I told you why?
No. Don't be stupid.

410
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,440
It's because you weren't there.

411
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,120
And we can't go back
and make you there.

412
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:39,920
We've both got to earn that.

413
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:43,120
But I wanted to be there.

414
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:44,640
Yeah.

415
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:46,680
You weren't.

416
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,200
OK.

417
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,240
OK.

418
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:09,640
Well, everything looks fine.

419
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:15,760
Thanks.Just need to get you
with a midwife to follow through,
but there's nothing to worry about.

420
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,800
- Are you sure?
- Mum!

421
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:26,680
Now watch this - a magic coin.
Watch...watch...watch...
Where's it gone?

422
00:35:26,720 --> 00:35:30,840
It's that one.No, it's not.
It's gone, it's gone, no, don't.

423
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:36,920
Terry?Yeah.Are you leaving?
Yeah, I've got to get back
to real life.

424
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,960
Oh... Oh, and I've got a cheque
for you.

425
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:44,440
Alfie, run and get Kenny.No. It's
all right. We've said our goodbyes.

426
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:48,080
When are you coming back?
I don't know.

427
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,480
Where will you be?
How do we find you?

428
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,960
I'll write...when I have time.

429
00:35:58,160 --> 00:35:59,400
Mike?

430
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:00,640
Douglas Raeburn.

431
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,120
HE CHUCKLES
I'm grand.

432
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:04,640
Aye.

433
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:06,960
Visitors are down here as well.

434
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:11,360
We'll survive.Everything is fine.
Nothing to worry about.

435
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,800
I'm calling about the Ronansay Run.

436
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:21,960
It's a race, like the one
you used to have in Barra
on the Cockle Strand.Douglas?

437
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:26,800
We're going to do it. It's what
we need. ..Aye. It's been a while.

438
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:30,880
OK, more than a while,
but we're bringing it back.

439
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,440
You don't sound so excited.

440
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:40,440
Oh, well, suit yourself,
but everybody else is coming.
Let me look at the list.

441
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,720
Aye, nearly a dozen so far.

442
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:50,880
I knew you couldn't pass up
a challenge. I'll send you details.
You look after yourself.

443
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,880
Marvellous news about Carolyn.

444
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,560
It's a sign. This is going
to be a day for great news!

445
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:01,280
You've got nearly a dozen to ride?!

446
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:04,320
It's a small exaggeration.
How many?

447
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:05,440
One.

448
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:08,480
Two, if you count us.

449
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:13,080
But I'll have a dozen by the end
of the day. You mark my words.

450
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:18,360
Oh!

451
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:23,000
That's where it went to.Thank
you.Bye.I don't want you to go.

452
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:28,160
Um, you need to put your address
on the back of the cheque,
or they won't cash it.

453
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,040
It's a local bank.

454
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:34,880
Oops...!

455
00:37:36,240 --> 00:37:38,160
Here. I'll bend over.

456
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,200
There you are.
There's a picture of me leaving.

457
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,800


458
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:57,160

In the Navy...

459
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,360
Hurry up, then!

460
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:06,600
Come on!

461
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,680
You missed him.

462
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,040
I think he saw us.Yeah, me too.

463
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,640
The visit tomorrow.Aye. Well done.

464
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:53,680
I'm not going to let you down, Mum.
I'm going to grab my chance.Aye.

465
00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:00,440
Now stop it, that's enough!
And no hitting!

466
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,040
I imagine that goes for me as well.

467
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:12,680
A bit awkward.

468
00:39:12,720 --> 00:39:14,520
Not for me.

469
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,680
No. Perhaps not.

470
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,600
Congratulations. You're a member
of the race organising committee.

471
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,200
The what?

472
00:39:25,240 --> 00:39:27,080
Douglas needs your help.

473
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:30,960
To organise the Ronansay Run.
Can't do it without you.

474
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,200
So, was it his idea or yours
to come talk to me?

475
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:39,960
His. Which doesn't mean to say
that I don't approve of the idea.

476
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:44,800
Which I do. I apologise. That's
obviously what you need to hear.

477
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,840
I don't need to hear anything, Mary.

478
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:51,360
She's my daughter.

479
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:53,800
You can't blame me taking her part.

480
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,640
What does a member
of the committee do?

481
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:07,680
I've never even been on a horse.
I'm a man of the water.
Never had any need for a horse.

482
00:40:07,720 --> 00:40:14,320
But I'll happily join the committee.
So will I.Why?If you're
on the committee I want to be, too.

483
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:18,480
All volunteers are welcome.
Be a good little earner.

484
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:25,560
- I don't think it's about money.
- Of course it is! Hotel full
of tourists coming to see the race.

485
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,680
It isn't just that, Gordon.Oh, aye.

486
00:40:28,720 --> 00:40:36,400
- It isn't!
- After all these years, Mary, do you
not know how the man's mind works?

487
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:41,480
Maybe he's just doing it for the
crack.Not everything's about money.

488
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:45,640
That's right!All you
ever think about is making a profit.

489
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:47,800
Some things aren't about profit.

490
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:52,600
OK! It's not about profit or
tourists. I'll do what I can to help.

491
00:40:53,720 --> 00:40:57,240
Thanks, Gordon.Thanks, Gordon.
Ta.

492
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,480
How much do you think we can charge
to unload a horse?

493
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:12,800
- I don't know how to ride, Douglas.
- You must do! You're a farmer.

494
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,080
Does it look like I've got
any horses?

495
00:41:17,240 --> 00:41:20,000
No!Just thought I'd ask.

496
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:24,120
We're desperate.
She doesn't mean it like it sounds.

497
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:27,160
Aye. I do.

498
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:33,960
Does it have to be someone
from the island?Aye. That's one
of the rules. Has to be from here.

499
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,920
As I said, we're desperate.

500
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:40,960
I won't waste my breath.

501
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,120
Mum, are you ready?
Almost, sweetheart.

502
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:09,360
CRASH

503
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:10,880
Mum?

504
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,680
Mum? Oh, my God!

505
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:17,440
Mum, are you OK? Mum!

506
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:21,080
Help me! Help me, please!

507
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:23,640
My mum needs help!

508
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:25,720
Quick, please!

509
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:31,520
There's nothing broken.
The bruising on your neck
and shoulder's deep.

510
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:35,960
I want you to rest.
I don't want you moving about.

511
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:39,400
I'm sorry, Heather.
I've ruined everything.

512
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:41,360
Don't worry. We can go another time.

513
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:45,560
- She's all right.
- Of course. She's indestructible.

514
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:49,240
A little sympathy, Gordon.
That wasn't sympathetic?

515
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:55,760
She'll be fine. You were right
to get me out, though. Keep an eye
on her?Yeah. Thanks for coming.

516
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:58,280
I'll run you back.

517
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:02,760
All right? You can get
to Edinburgh another time.Yeah.

518
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,280
You WILL go.Yeah.

519
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,560
See you.

520
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,840
Does HE ride?

521
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:23,280
- I don't know.
- He seems to like horses. He had
paintings on the wall. ..Douglas?

522
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:28,520
Um...Dr Talbot,
you don't ride by any chance?Aye.

523
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:32,560
- How well?
- Gordon! It doesn't matter.

524
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:38,120
You don't own a horse, do you?
Aye. It's liveried in Portree.

525
00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:45,120
- So, when did you
move from the island?
- It can't have been that long ago.

526
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,360
Don't go over the edges.

527
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,400
Let's see.

528
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,480
Mary, Mary, come on, down a bit!

529
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:18,200
Hold it, Mary.
You're doing a grand job.

530
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,120
We should see them coming soon.

531
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:45,160
How many?I wanted 12, got ten.
Some of the smaller islands
couldn't find a horse.

532
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:48,680
- That's good going, Douglas.
- Everyone's out.

533
00:44:48,720 --> 00:44:51,560
Just how I remembered it.

534
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:05,480
The good news is,
if anyone gets hurt,
the doctor will already be here!

535
00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:12,840
Your father would have loved this,
Kenny.

536
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:21,920
Oh, you beauty!

537
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:27,360
What's his name?His name's George.

538
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:50,720
A regular fare to get here, but when
the tourists want to leave, that's
when I hit them.What tourists?

539
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,680
Anything?

540
00:45:52,720 --> 00:45:59,440
No.They'd better come soon
or the tide will be in
and you won't have a beach to run on.

541
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,040
Yes, I know, Gordon.

542
00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:04,080
Sorry, Douglas.

543
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,600
Typical of Douglas, isn't it?

544
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:16,120
No-one's coming. I never did like
the idea. Knew it wouldn't work.

545
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:25,120
I'm sorry, Douglas.

546
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:28,400
It's not your fault.
You tried your best.

547
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:32,000
Aye. Tried my best and I failed.

548
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:39,560
No-one's coming.

549
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:47,000
Let's just take it all down,
forget the whole thing. I was
a fool to think it might work.

550
00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:54,040
- I couldn't stop her from coming.
- Everyone's here. Look around.

551
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:57,880
Remember the reason why you wanted
to do this in the first place.

552
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:01,640
You'll be needing this, won't you?
I polished it up for you.

553
00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:09,000
Can't have a one-horse race.

554
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,200
Aren't they the best kind?

555
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,520
All right, then! Starter's orders.

556
00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:24,120
Mount your horses
for the annual Ronansay Run!

557
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:27,200
Doctor, just stay on your horse
and you'll be taking home the cup.

558
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:34,080
Come on, now! You all know your
jobs! We're losing the tide.

559
00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:35,640
Come on!

560
00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:45,520
Go!

561
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,200
They're running.

562
00:48:12,240 --> 00:48:15,080
All ten horses got a clean start.

563
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:21,440
Uist noses in front.
Barra in second with Harris in third
and Ronansay trapped.

564
00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:29,480
It's soft going by the water. Talbot
uses his whip to urge his horse on.

565
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:35,000
Uist is still in front
as they bend with the strand.

566
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:43,680
Come on, Ronansay!

567
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,360
Come on, Ronansay!

568
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:49,920
Come on!

569
00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:51,640
Come on, Ronansay!

570
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,680
SHOUTING AND CHEERING

571
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:15,880
Come on!

572
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,320
Hurra-ay!

573
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:44,240
Yes!

574
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:24,280
