{\an8}Your callers seem to agree with you,
7
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,520
{\an8}but I think you're completely wrong.
Tell me why.
8
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,280
Just... just sit down here?
Yeah, that's good.
9
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,040
Here's your paper.
10
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:20,760
If you need that document. OK.
11
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:24,160
You call it Partygate, yeah? Mm-hm.
12
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,680
The Government kept working -
they had to.
13
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:31,880
They were running the country.
14
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:37,880
If, during their working time,
they take ten minutes, whatever,
15
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,640
to have a drink, have a cup of tea,
16
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,520
to wish the Prime Minister
happy birthday -
17
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,920
and it was never more than
10-15 minutes, was it?
18
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:45,800
That's not a party. Well, you...
19
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,720
It never has been a party. OK.
20
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,800
Hello, I'm Grace Greenwood,
21
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,560
former special adviser in
the Brexit Unit
22
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,200
at Number 10 Downing Street.
23
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,200
I loved him from the start.
24
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:01,560
He wasn't like the others.
25
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:02,720
What do you do to relax?
26
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,760
What do you do to switch off?
Er, I...
27
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,440
I - well, I like to...
28
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,880
...paint, erm, or I make things.
29
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,480
I like to...
What do you make? I make...
30
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,560
I have a thing where
I make models of...
31
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,400
...buses. I put passengers...
32
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:24,800
You really want to know this?
33
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,440
You're making buses, you're making
cardboard buses. I paint...
34
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,200
OK, that's what you do
to enjoy yourself.
35
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,040
I paint, no,
I paint the passengers...
36
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,520
...enjoying themselves. OK.
37
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:33,720
Sedgefield!
38
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:35,600
He got Brexit done.
39
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,200
And now, he was giving the North
the chance to take back control.
40
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:40,800
Darlington!
CHEERING
41
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,800
...Once-in-a-lifetime chance for us
to take back control.
42
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,160
And, even more amazing...
43
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,840
SHE SCREAMS
...I had a job in his Government.
44
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:53,480
My bracket is more to do with, erm,
implementing struc... Yes.
45
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,720
I'm not really qualified
to be having this kind
46
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,240
of conversation, because...
47
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,120
I couldn't actually believe it,
48
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,520
but I had always wanted
to make a difference.
49
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,000
I didn't know anyone else
in Number 10.
50
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,200
I think the scientific evidence is, well...
51
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,080
And, to be honest,
people weren't that friendly.
52
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:11,520
Our judgment is wash, er,
53
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,760
washing your hands is
the crucial thing.
54
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:15,920
But then, after a few weeks,
55
00:02:15,920 --> 00:02:17,520
the events started to happen.
56
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:18,960
{\an8}I'm shaking hands continuous...
57
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,160
{\an8}I was at a hospital
the other night where,
58
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,960
I think there were actually
a few coronavirus patients,
59
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,600
and I shook hands with everybody,
you'll be pleased to know,
60
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,080
and I continue to
shake hands and, er...
61
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,080
Our judgment is wash. Er...
62
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:34,760
...before you shake hands, obviously.
63
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,720
Good afternoon. Here's the latest
on the coronavirus outbreak...
64
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,080
There are now 90 confirmed
cases of the corona...
65
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:41,680
...bringing the total to 500...
66
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,080
...After nearly 300 deaths,
67
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,800
the Italian Prime Minister
announced drastic limits on...
68
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,640
...In Denmark, schools, libraries,
and leisure facilities are shut,
69
00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:50,720
and most schools are also
closed in Spain.
70
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,360
The UK increasingly
looking alone in Europe...
71
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,560
Other European countries
were locking down,
72
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:56,960
but the boss was resisting.
73
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,640
...Seems to go against
the freedom-loving instincts
74
00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:00,800
of the British people.
75
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,440
French President Emmanuel Macron
has announced that France
76
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:04,840
and most European Union...
77
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:06,360
Death rates were rising fast.
78
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,320
In the end, there was no choice.
79
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,880
Will this square be empty
in two weeks' time?
80
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,320
And should it, like Italy,
be empty now?
81
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:16,560
Good evening.
82
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,240
From this evening,
you must stay at home.
83
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,080
If your friends ask you to meet,
84
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:23,760
you should say no.
85
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,800
You should not be meeting family
members who do not live
86
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,000
in your home.
87
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,880
{\an8}This is a message
from the Port Talbot Council.
88
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,520
{\an8}Please follow the Government
rules at this time.
89
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,720
If you don't follow the rules,
the police will enforce them
90
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,360
through fines and
dispersing gatherings.
91
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,720
{\an8}Go home, please. It's not a holiday.
92
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,800
{\an8}It's a lockdown, which means you
don't just come in and sunbathe.
93
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,280
{\an8}Can you please just leave?
94
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,520
When they started,
95
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,040
it was really nice.
96
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:58,480
If this, if this virus were a, erm,
were a physical mugger...
97
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,240
I'm Annabel. Hello.
98
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,200
I'm Grace. Hi. Erm...
99
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,280
I'm in the Brexit unit,
doing COVID, like everyone else.
100
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,000
Yeah, I'm on COVID messaging,
along with...
101
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,160
...being the deputy head of
the PM's diary and visits, which...
102
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,320
Oh, wow. It's not "wow", it's a
fancy way of saying nanny.
103
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,680
I essentially schedule his nap times
and take his temperature,
104
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,440
walk the dog, that sort of thing.
105
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,760
A-Are we, erm, are we
still in a meeting?
106
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,280
Yeah, but, I mean,
we're having a drink now.
107
00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:31,960
OK. It's lovely to meet you.
108
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,720
BORIS JOHNSON
CONTINUES SPEAKING
109
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:37,800
Through the protective doors,
110
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,600
down a corridor, and on to a unit
111
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,960
that few will even know exists.
112
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,560
There are six of these
centres in the UK.
113
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,280
All have been striving
to keep some of the very sickest
114
00:04:48,280 --> 00:04:52,320
COVID-19 patients alive after
ventilators have failed.
115
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,920
It's no wonder they're sometimes
called the Hail Mary wards.
116
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,120
ALARM BLARES
117
00:04:59,280 --> 00:05:01,600
We're interrupted by
the cardiac arrest alarm
118
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,240
going off in a side bay.
119
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,920
Staff who we hadn't even seen
before, suddenly appear.
120
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,320
Everyone now well-versed
in an emergency.
121
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,480
A few days after drinks
in the garden,
122
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:20,120
I got an invitation from the boss's
principal private secretary.
123
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:21,520
"Hi, all.
124
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,800
"After what has been
an incredibly busy period,
125
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,000
"we thought it would be nice to make
the most of this lovely weather
126
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,600
{\an8}"and have some socially distanced
127
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,440
{\an8}"drinks in the Number 10 garden
128
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:32,800
"this evening.
129
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,120
{\an8}"Please join us from 6pm,
130
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:40,680
{\an8}"and bring your own booze."
131
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,440
Martin Reynolds had actually
invited 200 people,
132
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,720
and there were
a few things to organise.
133
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,160
"Could you please pop out
134
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,960
"a couple of tables for us to host
135
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,000
"these drinks in the garden
136
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,920
"on Weds eve?"
137
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,520
Stay safe. Thank you.
138
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,720
"Just to flag that
139
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,440
"the press conference will probably
140
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,480
"be finishing around that time.
141
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,520
"So, helpful if people can be
mindful of that
142
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,200
"as speakers and cameras
are leaving,
143
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,320
"not walking around,
144
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,960
"waving bottles of wine, etc."
145
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:20,080
"Will do my... best."
146
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,080
OK, who wants to come with me to
get some booze for tonight?
147
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:29,800
Josh?
148
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,000
I mean, Martin said
to bring your own bottle.
149
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:33,560
I know, but in case you run out.
150
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:34,720
Yeah, of course.
151
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,080
Yeah. Yeah, I'll go.
152
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,440
Yep, great. Come on, then.
153
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:44,560
Ooh.
154
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:51,360
One, six, six, seven, eight,
nine, ten, 11, 12...
155
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,800
So, are we...
156
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,040
Are we - are we having a party?
157
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:00,960
No, just socially distanced drinks.
158
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,240
Er, it's for a work event, actually.
159
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:18,280
That's an increase of 2,472
cases since yesterday.
160
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:23,840
9,953 people are currently
in hospital with coronavirus.
161
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:31,000
That is down 13%, from 11,443
this time last week.
162
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,040
And sadly, of those who have...
163
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,120
THEY LAUGH
...tested positive for coronavirus
164
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,000
across all settings,
165
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,720
35,704 have now sadly died.
166
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:45,600
That is an increase of
363 fatalities since yesterday.
167
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,040
But, as the Prime Minister
announced this week,
168
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,760
you can spend time outdoors
and you can meet one person
169
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,160
outside your household
in a public place,
170
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,480
provided that you
stay two metres apart.
171
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:01,120
I-I implicitly
believe this to be a work event.
172
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,360
So, where are you from?
Er, Darlington.
173
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:05,600
Right near Durham.
174
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,600
Oh, the famous Red Wall. Yeah.
175
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,800
So who do you know? Here? Yeah.
176
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:11,600
No, I don't know anyone.
177
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:12,920
You don't know anyone?
178
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,160
How'd you end up in Number 10?
179
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,360
Erm, I worked at
Vote Leave for a bit.
180
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,080
So, is this a job for you,
or something more?
181
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,720
N-No, I...I really want
to help change things.
182
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,080
...Speech, but cometh the hour.
183
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,040
{\an8}In the seventh week of the lockdown,
184
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,560
{\an8}the United Kingdom has now recorded
185
00:08:33,560 --> 00:08:36,400
{\an8}Europe's highest number of deaths
linked to the coronavirus.
186
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,200
We have overtaken Italy,
the first country in the world
187
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,280
to instigate a national lockdown.
188
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,080
This is a gathering that cannot
happen under the current COVID-19
189
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,480
legislation and restrictions!
190
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,520
HIGH-PITCHED:Hello!
WOMAN CHUCKLES
191
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:58,560
Hello.
192
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,440
{\an8}I'm holding her -
mine's all steamed up cos...
193
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,320
Drop your head.
...the air thing's...
194
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:07,520
Just drop your head.
195
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,960
So it's now one metre-plus,
not two metres.
196
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,880
And they've just spent
the last 15 years renovating
197
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,680
this huge chateau in France.
198
00:09:14,680 --> 00:09:17,160
No, I-I don't think
that's actually the case.
199
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,160
I think we've all done
different figures here.
200
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,320
We're not, kind of -
yeah, we all have different ways
201
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:22,840
of measuring our death rates.
202
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,680
"Leaving drinks -
can we discuss handling?
203
00:09:25,680 --> 00:09:28,160
"Is it safe to do
a larger event indoors,
204
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,000
"but with some people carrying on
205
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,400
"outside afterwards?"
206
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,960
"Well, I'm not sure
it works at all for me.
207
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,200
{\an8}"I don't see how we can have
any kind of party."
208
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,400
"So, you're saying nothing?"
209
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,120
"Well, it's your decision,
210
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:46,600
"but it obviously comes with
211
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,720
"rather substantial comms risks."
212
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:57,760
What a knob end.
213
00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,560
Oh, it's nice, it's like -
214
00:09:59,560 --> 00:10:00,800
it's basically just like...
215
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,000
How do I get from being jolly,
having a glass of wine...
216
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,800
There's no blend, it's literally...
217
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,400
...to not remembering running
through St Vincent portmanteau?
218
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,160
Sounds nice! Really beautiful at
this time of year. Great food.
219
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,520
{\an8}I just literally just,
like, jumped...

{\an8}ALL GASP
221
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,400
Oh, dear. Yeah, that's not good.
222
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,760
Erm, do you think maybe
we switch rooms? Yeah.
223
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,320
Guys, we're going to...
224
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:20,840
We're going to move next door.
225
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,320

00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:23,960

I'm delighted to be taking on
this important role.

Pretty much all this lot, actually,
249
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,880
have tried to cop off with me
at some point,
250
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,160
whether at school, your think tanks.
251
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:40,560
Right.
252
00:11:40,560 --> 00:11:42,280
That's Josh Fitzmaurice.
253
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,840
He is incredibly available.
254
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,800
Eton, loves a party, clearly.
255
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,200
Oh, he knows Alice,
from the Taxpayers' Alliance -
256
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:50,520
and Oxford, of course.
257
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,960
I think, actually,
they used to go out together.

Oh, my God, Hermione Villers.
259
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,800
She is a complete bitch.
260
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,880
She went to Westminster with Josh,
and she goes on and on about
261
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,240
how she's a far-back,
and she fucking isn't.
262
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:04,640
"Far-back?" Oh, far-back.
263
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,240
Says her family go far back in
history, when they don't.
264
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,760

you were from, again?

00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,040
From D... From Darlington.
Darlington, yeah.
280
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,280
Like, you don't know what -
where I'm talking about.

No-one goes there.
282
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,840
Just even, like, repatriating
power to the North,
283
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:06,760
like, we used to be, like...
284
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,200
They need to... We need to level up.
285
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,960
They need to be given back control.
286
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,760
Yeah. And I just think, you know,
Brexit's our chance to do that.
287
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,560
I feel like places like Darlington
could become, like, tech hubs,
288
00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:16,840
and it, you know... Yeah.
289
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,800
Yeah, yeah. Darlington could be,
like, the new Cheltenham.
290
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:20,960
Yes. You know, like...
291
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,920
What it's done for Cheltenham -
it was already good, you know...
292
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,800
We have to peg back
globalisation, like...
293
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,120
Could you believe those
fucking cunts tried to pull down
294
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:29,520
the statue of Churchill? Yeah.
295
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,720
And essentially, like,
"Oh, you're a racist -
296
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,760
"if you don't celebrate, like,
every other culture
297
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,320
"other than your own,
then sorry, you're a racist."
298
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,240
Like... It's dog shit.
It-It's a coup.
299
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:40,720
We're witnessing a cultural coup.
300
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,240
It's humiliating working people.
301
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:43,880
Boris doesn't talk down to people.
302
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,080
He's on our side.
D'you know what I mean? It's like...
303
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,000
He's amazing, and you could just
go to the pub with him, maybe.
304
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,120
I can actually picture my grandad,
like, sitting down and having
305
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,800
a pint with Boris, and they would,
306
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,680
like, talk about actual,
real things.
307
00:13:55,680 --> 00:13:57,560
Your grandad would've
fucking loved Boris.
308
00:13:57,560 --> 00:13:59,400
Boris would've loved your
fucking grandad.
309
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:00,760
He worked in a steel mill.
310
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,360
Your grandad sounds fucking amazing.
He was. To your grandad.
311
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:04,680
Thank you. What a lege.
312
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,560
Like, sorry,
but I have moved on.
313
00:14:09,560 --> 00:14:12,600
Like, I just want to, like,
have fun and live my life.
314
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,760
Yeah. Maybe we should
stop drinking now.
315
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,760
Does it taste... taste nice?
What?
316
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:20,840
Boris's massive... penis.
317
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:22,240
Oh, fuck off. What the fuck?
318
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,320
...Penis. You're such a prick.
I don't...
319
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,240
I don't fucking
suck up to Boris. Fuck off.
320
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,600
We see him for, like,
once a week, maybe,
321
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,560
like, we can get him to focus for,
like, eight, nine seconds?
322
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,960
We still don't have any PPE.
We haven't got enough.
323
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,960
And fucking Track or Trace is
a total fucking fuck-up.
324
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:39,240
I know, I know.
325
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,800
Yeah, and all you want to do is
talk about Festival of Brexit.

00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,080

327
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,880

328
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,320
You're constantly up his arse.
It's fucking...
329
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,440
Mate... It's fucking pathetic.
...fuck off.
330
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,920
No, you fuck off.
Fuck off. Fuck off.
331
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,920
You fuck off.
No, you tell him to fuck...
332
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,160
Don't fucking touch me.
333
00:14:58,160 --> 00:14:59,640
Fuck off! Actually fuck off.
334
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:01,640
You've gotta stop.
OK, OK, OK, OK, OK.
335
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,200
He's in my face! Don't, don't...
336
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,920
I'm sorry, he's in my face
the entire fucking time.
337
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,480
He's telling me I'm up Boris's
fucking arse. That's bollocks.
338
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,680
We can all agree
that you're up Boris's arse.
339
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,920
It's not even a criticism.
Stop goading him!

00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,680
VOCALISING INTENSIFIES
344
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,920
VOCALISING CONTINUES
345
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:39,520
Oh, my God. Oh...
346
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,160
VOMITING CONTINUES
347
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,040
{\an8}DISTANT DOGS BARKING
348
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,720
When Ruby's cancer had returned
349
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,240
and we knew she was going to die,
350
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,200
{\an8}she couldn't see anybody.
351
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,120
{\an8}The rules were very, very strict.
352
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:24,240
And I actually said to her at
that point, "There are...
353
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,440
"There are friends of yours,
your grandparents,
354
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,600
"they would so love to see you.
355
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,120
"I'm sure if we asked them,
they would come and see you,"
356
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,720
even though at that point,
it wasn't allowed.
357
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:36,560
There was no socialising allowed.
358
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,960
You weren't allowed
to have anybody in your house.
359
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,160
But actually, Ruby said...
360
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:42,720
She said, "No, it's...
361
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,800
"The rules are there for a reason.
We're not taking that risk.
362
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,160
"I know I'm going to die,
363
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,880
"but I don't want to take
anyone with me."
364
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,280
She had to say goodbye
to them on Zoom.
365
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,080
And so, on the 15th of May,
366
00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,800
she died at home, with just myself
367
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:02,880
and her father,
and her sister with her.
368
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,880
OK. Well, maybe that's something
we could say is, you know,
369
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,320
two metres is id-ideal.
No, I think that's implied.
370
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:21,680
Just one metre-plus, I think.
371
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,880
The-The "plus" implies it,
I think. Yeah. Yeah.
372
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:26,760
Down from - two metres
was the minimum,
373
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,160
and that's no longer the minimum,
that's the ideal.
374
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,680
But that's not the minimum.
So, erm... I don't know, just,
375
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,360
one metre-plus is the key
messaging we've been given,
376
00:17:34,360 --> 00:17:35,880
so let's just stick with that.
377
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:39,600
HE SIGHS
378
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,160
So...
379
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,040
...just to confirm...
380
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,200
...someone's been dancing on my desk?
381
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,320
Erm...
382
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,760
HE STAMMERS
383
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,280
I mean, I...
384
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:58,520
Grace?
385
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,360
I think just, just a drink. Yeah.
386
00:18:01,360 --> 00:18:04,480
End of the day, drink wind-down...
387
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:11,000
...seeing the state of play for
tomorrow sort of situation.
388
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,600
What was an office is now
a shithole.
389
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,040
Yeah, I'm so sorry, I am...
390
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:17,800
I don't know what to say, this is...
391
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,440
This is awful. This is shocking.
392
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,320
I mean, we-we'll get over this
and we'll, erm, find out.
393
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,800
Yeah, I can go and...
394
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:27,360
Get someone to clean it up.
395
00:18:27,360 --> 00:18:29,280
Mm-hm. Yeah.
396
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:30,920
Well, off you go. Yes. Thank you.
397
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:38,760
DOOR SHUTS
398
00:18:40,360 --> 00:18:42,640
God, it was genuinely
like being told off at
399
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,920
the headmaster's office.
SHE EXHALES
400
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,200
Why is it us?
401
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,200
Why did we go in there?
I don't know.
402
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,080
I have to go. Just remember.
403
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,240
What happens in Number 10...
404
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,000
...stays in Number 10. OK.
405
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,320
"Hi.
406
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,600
"PM birthday today.
407
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:04,920
"Have organised sandwiches
408
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:10,040
{\an8}"and cake for around 1pm
in the Cabinet Room.
409
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,760
"Do you mind letting peeps know?"
410
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:15,520
Ooh!
411
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,120
"Will do."
412
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:20,520
SHE GASPS
413
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,160
IN FRENCH
414
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,200
Yeah?
415
00:19:43,120 --> 00:19:46,080
So, are we - we're having
another party today?
416
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,200
No, it's a working lunch,
on the PM's birthday.
417
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,880
So, do we get to hang out
with Boris?
418
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:55,920
We do.
419
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,120

...the spirit that we are gathered
in today is very much at odds
434
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,360
with the kind of spirit we are

435
00:20:43,360 --> 00:20:46,480
{\an8}at the statue of Winston Churchill,

yobbos would be
my description for them -
438
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,520
where they threatened to deface
and destroy the statue
439
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,120
of Winston Churchill.
440
00:20:55,120 --> 00:21:00,240
Just as, erm, our great leader,
Churchill, led the nation,
441
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:04,360
he was a beacon at our most
perilous time, our darkest hour,
442
00:21:04,360 --> 00:21:09,280
I do feel an incumbency upon
myself, at this time,
443
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,160
where we face different,
but-but perilous challenges.
444
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:18,320
I believe, with every fibre of
my being, that I-I must do...
445
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:19,880
...I-I must...
446
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,400

LAUGHTER
459
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,040
CAR HORNS BEEPING
So, it was my birthday two days ago,
460
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,320
and I'm really sad because
I wasn't able to have a party,
461
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,320
as the UK is still very
much in lockdown.
462
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:03,960
But I'm told to go on the balcony,
463
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,520
and two of my best friends are
beeping, and they're in my road,
464
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:10,040
they're driven a really long way
to come and see me.
465
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,360
And we had a socially distanced
meet-up with,
466
00:22:12,360 --> 00:22:14,720
Yasmin on the laptop,
as she's up in Manchester
467
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:16,120
and it's way too far to come.
468
00:22:16,120 --> 00:22:17,760
It was so lovely.
469
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,920
And hey, a lockdown birthday
isn't so bad if you have
470
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,200
amazing friends like mine.
471
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:24,640
Made my day so special.
472
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,600
MUFFLED BAGPIPES PLAYING
473
00:22:30,120 --> 00:22:33,160
BAGPIPES ON PHONE
474
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,640
{\an8}BAGPIPES PLAY "HAPPY BIRTHDAY"
475
00:23:08,360 --> 00:23:11,000
People had been locked
in their homes for months.
476
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,400
And finally, COVID deaths
had begun to drop.
477
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,480
So, in June, the boss decided
it was time to start
478
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,200
relaxing the lockdown laws.
479
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,720
Good evening.
480
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,320
From the 4th of July,
the following premises will be
481
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,000
allowed to reopen, provided
they are COVID-secure.
482
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,960
Restaurants and cafes.
483
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,480
Bars. Pubs.
484
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:34,120
And, of course, it goes without
saying they should do so in a way
485
00:23:34,120 --> 00:23:35,880
that is COVID-secure,
486
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,120
keeping customers and staff safe.
487
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:44,720
At all times, you should maintain
social distancing from anyone
488
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,800
outside your household.
489
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,640
{\an8}This obviously requires everyone
to act responsibly,
490
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,880
which I have no doubt they will do.
491
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,240
{\an8}But, as people took advantage
of the new freedoms,
492
00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,120
{\an8}COVID cases started to rise.
493
00:24:00,120 --> 00:24:04,120
The last two days, it's been
almost 3,000 cases per day.
494
00:24:04,120 --> 00:24:05,600
People have relaxed too much.
495
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,320
{\an8}Now is the time for us
to re-engage and realise that
496
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:12,360
{\an8}this is a continuing threat to us.
497
00:24:12,360 --> 00:24:13,920
We've got to change this now.
498
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,840
We've got to start taking it
seriously, very seriously again.
499
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,560
Coronavirus is now spreading
faster through England
500
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,960
than the Government's own
worst-case scenario...
501
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,160
...10,000 cases a day.
502
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:24,800
Now, that is potentially very scary.
503
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,480
Today's figures will increase
pressure on the Government
504
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,560
for wider national restrictions.
505
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,880
We cannot lockdown again.
506
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:35,080
Lockdown was a dreadful,
appalling, horrible mistake.
507
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:36,720
We cannot go there again.
508
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,640
Dom and the boss weren't
really talking any more.
509
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,480
And if they were,
it was to have a row.
510
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:46,200
I should be like the mayor of Jaws,
keeping the beaches open.
511
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,800
Dom Cummings says
he was saying that,
512
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,240
but it's not been confirmed.
513
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:51,800
...set of circumstances would be...
514
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,200
Anyway, deaths kept rising.
515
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,320
I-I think to revisit that set
of circumstances...
516
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:57,720
In the end, he had no choice.
517
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,280
No responsible
Prime Minister can ignore
518
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,160
the message of those figures.
519
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:06,720
And, unless we act, we could
see deaths in this country
520
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,240
running at several thousand a day.
521
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,200
And so, now is the time
to take action,
522
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,520
because there is no alternative.
523
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,280
Stay at home, protect the NHS,
524
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:18,520
and save lives.
525
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,520
The boss wasn't happy about
the national lockdown.
526
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:27,240
We got the feeling he'd been
pushed into it by Dom Cummings.
527
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,840
Infighting at the heart
of Government spilled out into
528
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:30,960
the public eye this week,
529
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,120
as Dominic Cummings left
Downing Street.
530
00:25:33,120 --> 00:25:35,880
And one night in November,
things finally came to the boil.
531
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:37,520
...Propelled out of the door after
532
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,400
a power struggle
that erupted publicly,
533
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,200
and left Downing Street in turmoil.

Boris! Boris! Boris! Boris!
537
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:53,440
We must cope and adapt to the
Lee Cain and, indeed,
538
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,160
Dominic Cummings-shaped holes...
539
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,640
THEY CHEER
...in-in our midst.
540
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:02,680
I do think that what humanity,
yes, humanity really does need
541
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:07,280
at this moment is a nation
that is willing to throw off
542
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:08,800
its Clark Kent spectacles...

00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,160

00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:16,120

phone booth and emerge,
545
00:26:16,120 --> 00:26:20,120
yes, emerge with its cloak flowing
546
00:26:20,120 --> 00:26:22,320
as the supercharged champion.
547
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,360
I-I should add, I think
this is probably the most
548
00:26:25,360 --> 00:26:27,400
unsocially distanced party
549
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,560
in the country right now. LAUGHTER
550
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,680
I thank you for your
morale and dedication,
551
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,480

I can tell you're devastated. Absolutely.

Gracie, sorry, Gracie, can you
help me get a bit more booze?
560
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,240
Yeah? I think we're running
a little bit dry. Yeah.

SILENCE
585
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,880
{\an8}We had the phone call to say that
586
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,240
it could be...
587
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,080
...it could be hours,
or it could be days,
588
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:51,160
but there was nothing else they
could do for my gran.
589
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,120
Being told to stay at home,
590
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:54,680
"You've got to stay at home."
591
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:58,640
And I remember seeing
Boris saying,
592
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,800
"You must stay at home."
593
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:02,360
I couldn't go and see her.
594
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:05,920
And my gran died of COVID.
595
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,480
She caught COVID in her care home,
and she died alone.
596
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,440
And that breaks my heart.
597
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,480
If I could go back,
598
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,000
I would've gone to see my gran...
599
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:24,040
...if I knew now what happened.
600
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,720
You do me proud, but, erm...
601
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,960
We are all here to say -

Cleo Watson with us. CHEERING

00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:47,400
So, leaving dos, birthdays, Christmas...
606
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,200
Yeah, lovely weather.
607
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,880
Is there anything that
we don't have a party for?
608
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,720
International Workers' Day?
609
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:55,680
Putin's birthday. Oh, Lent.

00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,640
Veganuary.
THEY LAUGH
611
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,120
A-A gracefulness, which, of course,
earned you the name The Gazelle.

The Gazelle!
613
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,960
Are you going to go to the
Christmas quiz on the 15th? Mm!
614
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,600
Oh, I don't think
I've been invited to the...
615
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,880
Oh, no, I think everyone's invited,
actually, yeah, check your messages.
616
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,440
OK. Can we be a team for
the quiz, then?
617
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:15,800
Where did you go to school?
618
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,680
Er, Durham Cathedral.
619
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,040
Yeah, that'll do, that'll do.
620
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,960
..A cavernous void
where your wonderful...

LOUD THUD
Oh, my God!

00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:27,720
The fuck is that?
623
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:29,200
It's a wine fridge.

EXCITED GASPS
625
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,480
It fits 34 bottles.
626
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,560
142 quid. Let's get it, get it...
627
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,120
This is very heavy. OK.

"Wine Time Fridays."
633
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,920
Wine Time Fridays were built into
the Downing Street calendar.
634
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:07,880
And when the fridge arrived,
635
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,040
everyone started getting really
excited about Christmas.
636
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:12,680
"A-Team.

applying travel bans with the UK,
after it reported a more infectious

and out-of-control variant
of coronavirus.
647
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:41,920
Denmark, Italy, and...
648
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:46,040

00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:47,600
EU ambassadors will meet for...
650
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,880
The problem was,
we had a new variant,
651
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:53,440
and deaths were back up to
around 500 people a day.
652
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,520
We don't want to, as I say,
653
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,920
to ban Christmas, to-to cancel it.
654
00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:02,840
And I think that would be,
frankly, inhuman,
655
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:06,920
and against the instincts of
many people in this country.
656
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,680
We did go ahead with
the Christmas quiz.
657
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:13,120
Some teams were online and
some were in various offices.
658
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,400

That was such a flourish,
such flair. Thank you very much.
677

{\an8}The 15th of December
681
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,200
was the day of Susan's funeral.
682
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:24,280
Only eight family members were
permitted to attend.
683
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,080
Ordered to sit two metres apart.
684
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,400
We couldn't view Susan
before the ceremony.
685
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,040
We couldn't dress her.
686
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:40,480
We couldn't place cherished
keepsakes with her.
687
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,400
Everything was sealed.
688
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,280
And that's all we could do,
689
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,360
or I could - was allowed to do.
690
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:56,200

together for 47 years,
691
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,920
it was all condensed into
a final goodbye
692
00:33:59,920 --> 00:34:02,400
in 20 minutes.
693
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,360
It's quite simply abhorrent.
694
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,480
People were confused about
whether or not COVID laws
695
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,800
were changing for Christmas.
696
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,040
Josh was replying to questions
from the public.
697
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:24,320
Hi there.
698
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:26,920
Can a Christmas party be
held in a workplace
699
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,720
at the end of a working day,
with staff members only?
700
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:31,840
"Hi.
701
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,360
"Although there are exemptions
for work purposes,
702
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:40,080
"you must not have a work
Christmas lunch or party..."
703
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:43,720
Oh, my God.
704
00:34:43,720 --> 00:34:46,160
"..where that's primarily
social activity,
705
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,640
"and is not otherwise permitted.
Thanks."
706
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:51,080
I wanted to explain...
707
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,640
We actually had
three parties that night.
708
00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:55,400
Steve Higham had his leaving do...
709
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,960
Captain Higham! Let's have it
right, Captain Higham!
710
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:01,320
...the head of the civil service,
Simon Case, had his quiz night...
711
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,600
...and the head of the COVID
task force had sent out
712
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,480
40 invitations to her leaving do.
713
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:10,240
{\an8}"We'd love it if you could join us
for a COVID-secure drink."
714
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,840
{\an8}The intention is to follow
the social-distancing guidance
715
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,240
{\an8}by observing a one-way system,
social distancing,
716
00:35:19,240 --> 00:35:21,600
{\an8}and any other
precautionary measures.

727
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:49,040
I had, like, the most amazing...
728
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:50,720
Which one's... which one's that?
729
00:35:50,720 --> 00:35:51,760
Oh, my God.
730
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:53,680
It's quite hard to tell...
731
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:55,080
My head was just like...
732
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,200
Oh, is that...? I think it's vegan.
733
00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,040
Am I the only one who's, am I...?
734
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:01,680
I'm the only one
who's staying in London?
735
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:03,880
I think so, yeah.
I don't know, I'm...
736
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,440
Alice hasn't been back home
since two of her dogs died
737
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,640
this year, didn't they? Oh, no...
738
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:11,560
LAUGHTER
739
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,840
That is so mean, George.
740
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,400
So, Grace, even if we...
741
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,720
Even if we, erm, don't lock down,
are you staying in London?
742
00:36:18,720 --> 00:36:19,760
I don't know.
743
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,160
We've also - we've...
744
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,880
We've also been doing this,
so it just makes me a bit...
745
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,400
...And I would just be so worried.
The house is enormous.
746
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,000
You know, I won't even be in
the same room...
747
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:30,640
Yeah. I'm going...
748
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:32,800
LAUGHTER
749
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:37,600
It's an estate, actually,
but, yeah.
750
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,480
Are you in Hampshire? No.
751
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:46,000
I was working in
Manchester as a very junior doctor
752
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:47,960
{\an8}when the pandemic hit.
753
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,120
{\an8}I have a stepson
who's very vulnerable.
754
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,640
But eat... egg boiling...
755
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,200
I can't finally eat eggs,
756
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,600
because it's too tricky!
757
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,280
So, I moved out to
a hotel in Manchester,
758
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,480
and lived there for about ten weeks.
759
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,600
I didn't see any of my family
or my friends.
760
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:09,640
Look!
761
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,200
I didn't say goodbye to him,
because he wasn't there,
762
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,160
cos we were trying to protect him...
763
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,240
...from me being at work.
764
00:37:16,240 --> 00:37:19,320
Those first couple of
months were just...
765
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,200
It was awful.
766
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,720
I think there was one weekend where,
767
00:37:23,720 --> 00:37:26,640
the one Saturday night, I lost
five patients in two hours.
768
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,000
If I wasn't at work,
I was in a hotel room.
769
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:33,320
And the rest of the time, it was
the high-dependency COVID patients.
770
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:42,400
Right, you coming?
771
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:44,880
What are you doing?
772
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,280
I'm just going to clean up
a little bit.
773
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:49,920
Why?
774
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,440
Erm, you know, we-we've
really made a mess,
775
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,280
so I think it's good
to just clean up.
776
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,840
This isn't your job.
777
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,920
I know, but, you know,
I-I don't think it's fair.
778
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:03,240
Sorry?
779
00:38:03,240 --> 00:38:05,240
I don't think it's fair
to the cleaners.
780
00:38:05,240 --> 00:38:08,040
To clean? No, if we just don't
clean up after ourselves.
781
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,520
So, I really don't -
I really don't mind doing it.
782
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,600
Tomorrow night is going to be huge.
783
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:15,480
And, yeah, there are
cabs downstairs.
784
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,680
I don't mind doing it.
785
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:19,400
You guys go. Honestly, it's fine.
786
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,040
Mm-hm.
787
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:22,240
OK.
788
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,560
Well, enjoy.
789
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,280
OK.
790
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,280
She's always so weird.
791
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:30,800
Bye. Bye.
792
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:33,720
CHEERING
793
00:38:33,720 --> 00:38:36,040
Four years on from the Brexit vote,
794
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:37,640
we were still trying to work out
795
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:41,160
what the border between the EU
and Britain was going to look like.
796
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:45,280
There's no border between, erm,
797
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:48,560
{\an8}Islington, or Camden
and Westminster.
798
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:50,720
{\an8}There's no border between
Camden and Westminster.
799
00:38:50,720 --> 00:38:52,840
But when I was Mayor of London,
800
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,880
we, anaesthetically and invisibly,
801
00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:58,240
took hundreds of millions of pounds
802
00:38:58,240 --> 00:39:01,280
from the accounts of people
travelling between
803
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:05,240
those two boroughs without any need
for border checks whatever,
804
00:39:05,240 --> 00:39:06,520
there are all sorts of...
805
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,760
Come on, you can't compare two
boroughs of London with
806
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,640
the kinds of difference in
the arrangements that would be
807
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,040
in place between the UK...
No, I think, I think...
808
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,400
...I think it's a very
relevant comparison.
809
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,720
{\an8}People were confused by
the boss's idea
810
00:39:19,720 --> 00:39:22,760
for an invisible
smart border in Ireland.
811
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,920
Without a deal on this, we were
going to be crashing out of the EU
812
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:27,800
in 13 days' time.
813
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,680
We'd been looking into how the
smart border was going to operate.
814
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:35,080
Grace, where are we
on smart borders?
815
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:36,840
Erm...
816
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:42,000
...so I've been talking to the guys
at the Policy Exchange, and...
817
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:46,240
...they just haven't been able
to point to anywhere that actually
818
00:39:46,240 --> 00:39:48,360
has a smart border.
819
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:57,240
So, so, like, it's like borders 2.0.
820
00:39:57,240 --> 00:40:00,080
OK? So it's like borders,
which embraces...
821
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,040
Don't write that down. ...innovation.
822
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,760
Well, they just haven't got,
you know, they just haven't got,
823
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,120
like, customs posts or, like,
cameras and stuff. Yeah.
824
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:10,440
It's like a fully joined-up
approach to border design.
825
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:13,720
Yes. Yeah. I mean, I-I feel
like they're just smart...
826
00:40:13,720 --> 00:40:16,440
They're smart. ..smart borders.
Stop saying "smart borders".
827
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,440
Doesn't mean anything. Frictionless.
828
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,840
So, it's literally a case
of just, like... What?
829
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,920
It's innovative, erm...
border tech.
830
00:40:25,240 --> 00:40:29,040
Yeah, they're primed to flex
to changing circumstances
831
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:30,400
using technology.
832
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:31,960
What technology?
833
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:33,080
I don't actually know.
834
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,160
I think, leave that
to the tech guys.
835
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:39,000
What - essentially, what I'm going
with is just a case of, like,
836
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,800
scanning and, erm...
837
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:43,800
Yeah, tap in, tap out.
Yeah, it's, it's...
838
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,960
What, like, you want like
an Oyster card?
839
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,160
Can I just confirm that Big Ben's
going to bong on the 31st?
840
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:56,040
Oh, my God. No, no, we're not
talking about Big Ben.
841
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,880
Because, on actual Brexit Day
this year... No, thank you,
842
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,440
we are not talking about Big Ben
again. ..it only bonged once.
843
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,720
And it wasn't even a real bong.
It was a light display...
844
00:41:03,720 --> 00:41:05,480
You and your obsession
with bonging Bens!
845
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:07,040
It's got nothing
to do with anything.
846
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,320
Can we get back to the subject
of this meeting? It was...
847
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,480
It was a projection. Thank you.
It was a projection.
848
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,560
I'm just saying...
the boss would like an update.
849
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,440
Right, come here! No, Sarah,
we're in the middle of a meeting.
850
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:17,560
Wine Time Friday? Yes!
851
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,800
No, I'm sorry, we're in the middle
of a meeting. At last.
852
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,040
Look, we're getting absolutely
nowhere and it's 4pm,
853
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:23,200
so we know what that is.
854
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:24,800
But we also need to sort it.
855
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,440
It's not going to get sorted,
we need - we do need to sort it.
856
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:02,960
And the first prize...
857
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:06,640
...for the Best Dressed SpAd
of the Year, 2020,
858
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:11,320
goes to, perhaps inevitably, the...
859

You need to get the fuck off him.
OK, OK, OK.
880
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,440
Sue Gray doesn't say
what happened next,
881
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,680
so we don't know what the
police officer did or was said.
882
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:59,200
But officers from the Parliamentary
and Diplomatic Protection Unit
883
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,560
were here at Downing Street
24 hours a day,
884
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,920
all through the lockdowns.
885
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:08,880
And it is believed that there's
CCTV cameras inside Downing Street,
886
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,560
and there is evidence
that Sue Gray gave the police,
887
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:16,840
over 300 photographs from the
various parties, so...
888
00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:19,000
It was just such a frenzy.
Honestly, I wouldn't go...
889
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,560
Cos honestly, I think she's
slightly unhinged...
890
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:23,800
Oh! Mate, we've...
891
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:25,440
Honestly, mate, we can just get -
892
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:26,840
we'll get cleaners.

894
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,520
...to protect the people of
this country.
895
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:04,960
Emphasise "heavy heart".
896
00:45:07,240 --> 00:45:09,400
That's clear...
897
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,520
No, no, no, it's perfect.
...all very good.
898
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:27,520
Are you a natural blonde?
I really have no idea.
899
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:30,040
OK.
900
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,800
Good afternoon, everybody,
and thank you for joining
901
00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,440
the latest coronavirus
press conference.
902
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:50,040
As Prime Minister, it's my duty
to take difficult decisions,
903
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:54,760
to do what is right to protect
the people of this country.
904
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:57,200
It is with a very heavy heart
that I must tell you,
905
00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:01,240
we cannot continue
with Christmas as planned.
906
00:46:01,240 --> 00:46:04,640
The boss was not happy with
the PR train wreck
907
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:06,400
of his cancelled Christmas.
908
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,880
He decided he wanted an
American-style press secretary
909
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:13,240
to handle the media.
910
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,200
And we were asked to sit in
on rehearsals before
911
00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:19,080
she went live to the nation.
912
00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,560
We were supposed to lob in
random questions,
913
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:23,160
so she could practise her answers.
914
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:29,760
SHE CHUCKLES
915
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,680
I went home. LAUGHTER
916
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:33,600
Hold on, hold on. Erm...
917
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,520
Er, ah...
918
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:45,240
Don't answer that.
919
00:46:45,240 --> 00:46:46,440
What's the answer?
920
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:51,360
Is cheese and wine all right?
921
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:54,760
It was a business meeting!
922
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:56,080
LAUGHTER
923
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:57,920
Is this recorded?
924
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,400
This fictional party -
it was a business meeting.
925
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,120
And it was not socially distanced.
926
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,560
Erm, one more, and then,
we'll, one more...
927
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:09,080
Ask - anybody have any
questions today?
928
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:24,880
So, did you go
home for Christmas?
929
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:26,800
I...no.
930
00:47:28,720 --> 00:47:30,080
So, who'd you spend it with?
931
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:31,440
I was just on my own.
932
00:47:34,720 --> 00:47:36,120
I was...
933
00:47:37,720 --> 00:47:41,000
To be honest, I was really worried
about giving it to my mum and dad.
934
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:49,440
{\an8}So, it was about
the 27th of December.
935
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,040
Erm...
936
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,640
I've come home from work,
I've gone to the garden,
937
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:55,600
and the police was there.
938
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,080
My niece was having
a gathering in the shed,
939
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:00,320
away from the house.
940
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:04,560
Erm, the police asked me for my
details and I gave them my details.
941
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:08,000
{\an8}And then, I ended up with
a £14,300 fine.
942
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:13,920
{\an8}Like, I've never seen
£14,300 in my life.
943
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,760
Like, probably I could work for
a year and probably potentially
944
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:18,360
could make that amount of money.
945
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:20,800
But I've never seen 14,300,
and I haven't got it.
946
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,000
I don't know where
that's going to come from.
947
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:28,440
And wh-what scares me the most is
the fact that, potentially,
948
00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:31,280
I could spend three months
in prison for that.
949
00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,840
LAUGHING
Hold on, hold on...
950
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:44,000
It definitely wasn't meant
for public consumption,
951
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:47,760
but Allegra's rehearsal video was
doing the rounds inside Number 10.
952
00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:51,680
Er, I, er...
953
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:55,080
I was just rewatching... Allegra.
954
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:58,400
Yeah, I don't really think
she answered everything.
955
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:01,480
Erm, I know it's not really
my department...
956
00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:04,800
Well, I think that ship sailed, so...
957
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:06,400
Thank you.
958
00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:07,680
Do you want to...?
959
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:09,080
Close it? Yeah.
960
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:15,040
OK.OK.Yeah.
NERVOUS CHUCKLING
961
00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:23,080
{\an8}The new variant was 70%
more transmissible.
962
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,160
And, by the start of January,
963
00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:27,680
1,000 people a day were dying.
964
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:31,880
The boss had no other option
but a third national lockdown.
965
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,800
We now have a
new variant of the virus,
966
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:39,200
and it's been both frustrating
and alarming to see
967
00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:43,280
the speed with which
the new variant is spreading.
968
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,200
We must therefore go into
a national lockdown
969
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:49,360
which is tough enough
to contain this variant.
970
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:52,800
That means the Government
is once again
971
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:54,840
instructing you to stay at home.
972
00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:00,280
They released a new ad campaign
to make sure people got the message.
973
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:32,480
{\an8}It was on
the 14th of January, 2021.
974
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:36,840
I organised a snowball fight
on Facebook at the local park.
975
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:39,400
A few days later,
police were at my door.
976
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,400
They were like, "OK, yeah,
we're going to issue you
977
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:45,280
"with a £10,000 fine."
978
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:47,840
So... Sorry, how much?
979
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:49,640
{\an8}£10,000.
980
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:51,120
{\an8}Erm...
981
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:56,640
Yeah, I-I actually don't know
what to do, really.
982
00:50:56,640 --> 00:51:00,800
I've not being given any support
or guidance, or anything.
983
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:02,680
Just been chased.
984
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:06,480
Yeah. I don't know what to do.
I genuinely don't.
985
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:13,480
{\an8}Boris! Boris! Boris!
Boris! Boris! Boris! Boris!
986
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:15,800
{\an8}CHANTING CONTINUES
987
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:17,280
{\an8}CHEERING
988
00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:20,080
I always feel humbled by,
er, by such greetings.
989
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:22,920
I consider that your reaction
is a microcosm of the reaction
990
00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:25,200
of the nation itself.
What are you doing?
991
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:26,800
I'm tired.
992
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:29,040
What? Don't be so silly.
993
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:30,080
It's, he's...
994
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:32,000
He's going to finish rambling
in a minute.
995
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:35,240
You know, we're having a drink.
Yeah, I-I'm going to go.
996
00:51:35,240 --> 00:51:37,480
Why, what's wrong? What's wrong?
997
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:38,680
Are you all right?
998
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:42,360
Those who were left, are frankly...
999
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:43,720
Crazy.
1000
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:48,120
Look, this is fine.
1001
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:51,920
We are allowed to have a drink.
It-It's...
1002
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:53,400
We're just letting off steam.
1003
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:56,880
We are here every single day,
slogging our guts out.
1004
00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:01,200
Look, the...
1005
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:05,600
OK, I don't want to sound
patronising, but...
1006
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:07,520
...people need boundaries.
1007
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:09,240
They...
1008
00:52:09,240 --> 00:52:10,840
They respond well to boundaries.
1009
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,120
And it's our job to give
them those boundaries.
1010
00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:14,400
That is what we are doing.
1011
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,680
Bu-But they are not...
1012
00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:20,320
They're not meant for us.
1013
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,240
BORIS CONTINUES
1014
00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:28,640
It's our job to make the rules,
1015
00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:31,800
but it's not up to us to follow
those rules. It just...
1016
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:33,560
It's just not realistic.
1017
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:37,440
You do you get that?
1018
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:40,040
...And this is a girl who can...
1019
00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:41,800
You're one of us now.
1020
00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:44,480
It's OK.
SHE CHUCKLES
1021
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:45,840
...We are to get them right!
1022
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:48,920
Hear, hear!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
1023
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:50,240
Come on.
1024
00:52:50,240 --> 00:52:51,920
Thank you, Boris!
1025
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:53,400
Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow.
1026
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,280
CHEERING CONTINUES
1027
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:36,520
{\an8}We have just received a statement
from Buckingham Palace
1028
00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:40,600
{\an8}confirming that the
Duke of Edinburgh has died.
1029
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:42,480
{\an8}Prince Philip had died.
1030
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:45,520
The night before his funeral,
we had two parties.
1031
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:48,720
Upstairs, there was a leaving do
for James Slack...
1032
00:53:48,720 --> 00:53:51,240
To James!
To James!
1033
00:53:51,240 --> 00:53:53,120
CHEERING
1034
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:55,000
...and down in the basement,
1035
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,080
Shelley Williams-Walker was
throwing down a DJ set
1036
00:53:58,080 --> 00:53:59,440
for the cool people.
1037
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:01,480
♪ I'm never gonna dance again
1038
00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:04,880
♪ Guilty feet have
got no rhythm... ♪
1039
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,240
Shelley was the boss's
head of operations.
1040
00:54:07,240 --> 00:54:08,440
She followed him around
1041
00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:10,680
and made sure he didn't make
any PR blunders.
1042
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:20,080
Back in Downing Street,
she was the cool DJ.
1043
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:24,280
Sue Gray doesn't actually say
that I actually DJd at this party.
1044
00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:26,840
Erm, and the real me
hasn't commented.
1045
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:33,000
But it's been widely reported that
they called me "DJ SWW".
1046
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,360
And the Mirror and
the Telegraph said that I was
1047
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:36,960
in charge of the music.
1048
00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:38,200
No comment.
1049
00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:40,720
Anyway, whatevs.
1050
00:54:40,720 --> 00:54:43,120
There was definitely music.
SHE LAUGHS
1051
00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:47,440
# I get a feeling that I never,
never, never, never had before
1052
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:48,720
♪ I get a good feeling... ♪
1053
00:54:48,720 --> 00:54:50,840
Do you think people knew
it was wrong?
1054
00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:03,520
No.
1055
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:06,200
Good Feeling
by Flo Rida
1056
00:55:21,240 --> 00:55:22,520
Excuse me.
1057
00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:28,400
I need everybody in the garden now!
1058
00:55:30,240 --> 00:55:32,440
Could you go outside, please,
to the garden?
1059
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:33,720
What?!
1060
00:55:33,720 --> 00:55:35,960
There are too many people in here!
1061
00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:41,800
I'm just saying, if I can touch
this many people,
1062
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:43,240
you know what I mean?
1063
00:55:43,240 --> 00:55:46,640
I really touch people
with my music...
1064
00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,680
...and could I make a go of it?
1065
00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:49,960
Do you know what I mean?
1066
00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:54,280
Cos, OK, I have done
mainly children's parties,
1067
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:59,240
but, you know, six-year-olds
respond to my set, as well,
1068
00:55:59,240 --> 00:56:01,000
like, if it's...
LOUD SNAP
1069
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:05,320
Hey! Wahey!
1070
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:07,440
SCATTERED CHEERING
Thank you, everyone.
1071
00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:11,240
Oh, my God, Wilf is going
to have a meltdown!
1072
00:56:11,240 --> 00:56:13,040
SCATTERED LAUGHTER
1073
00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:16,640
Wilf is going to go crazy.
1074
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,480
He's going to have you all beheaded.
1075
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:21,080
INDISTINCT CHATTER
1076
00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:24,520
Do you... do you think we should go
back inside and get another drink?
1077
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:27,320
I think it's...

1081
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,720
OK, we've had a call to say
there's a party at this location.
1082
00:56:38,720 --> 00:56:42,120
I'll be reporting you all for
breaching COVID conditions, OK?
1083
00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:44,480
You're not under arrest,
but I'm going to caution you, OK?
1084
00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:47,280
So, you don't have to say anything,
but it may harm your defence if you
1085
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:50,720
do not mention now something which
you later rely on in court, OK? OK.
1086
00:56:50,720 --> 00:56:53,520
Careless Whisper
by George Michael
1087
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:02,960
It's definitely not in
the Gray Report...
1088
00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:05,600
But, to be fair, widely reported.
1089
00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:07,400
Yeah, we were actually in The Times.
1090
00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:09,120
Although I think it first emerged
1091
00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:10,760
in Paul Brand's ITN podcast?
1092
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:12,240
Oh, that was such a good podcast.
1093
00:57:12,240 --> 00:57:13,880
Yeah, it was really cool.
1094
00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:15,200
It was so good.
1095
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:21,520
MUFFLED MOANING
1096
00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:26,840
Hugh texted me the other day.
1097
00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:28,080
Did you meet him?
1098
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:31,120
No, I don't think so.
1099
00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:32,920
Leaky Hugh.
1100
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:36,320
He was the one who had to resign...
1101
00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:38,640
...after, I think it was two weeks,
1102
00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:40,200
because he was disloyal.
1103
00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:46,040
No. I don't think anyone was
talking to me then.
1104
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:49,600
Hm.
1105
00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:54,120
Well, I don't think he's
found anything.
1106
00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:02,960
Because people who...
1107
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:05,880
...talk to journalists -
1108
00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:09,920
I mean, all of us talk to
journalists, that's...
1109
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:14,920
But people who talk to the
wrong journalists,
1110
00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:17,400
unhelpful ones, disloyal ones...
1111
00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,040
...Grace, they just,
they don't work again.
1112
00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:27,800
I mean, not people like Govie.
1113
00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:30,400
They're so slippery, they always
seem to land on their feet,
1114
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:33,360
I mean, but for people like us...
1115
00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:38,960
Look, this lot,
they just make you pay a price
1116
00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:40,400
if you ever cross them.
1117
00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:48,680
Yeah. What happens in Number 10
stays in Number 10.
1118
00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:49,920
Yes.
1119
00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:58,200
Because if any of us talk,
1120
00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:00,320
they'll just see us for
what we are, right?
1121
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:01,960
Like, they'll see that...
1122
00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:04,040
...we're just taking
the piss out of them,
1123
00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:06,960
the people who actually follow
the rules, they'd see that
1124
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:11,560
those same rules don't apply
to people like us, or...
1125
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:13,320
...actually, people like you.
1126
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:15,920
SHAKY BREATHING
And they'd...
1127
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:19,880
...they'd probably wonder
why that was.
1128
00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:21,520
Do you think?
1129
00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:36,440
How did the truth about these
parties come out?
1130
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:37,680
Do you know?
1131
00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:43,600
Erm...
1132
00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:49,640
I don't work at Number 10 anymore.
1133
00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:55,040
I'm not sure
how much more I can say.
1134
01:01:00,480 --> 01:01:01,680
COMPUTER CHIMES
1135
01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:09,400
IN FRENCH
1136
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:20,040
To be honest, we were confused,
1137
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:22,760
unable to say what this
white powder was.
1138
01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:26,360
But The Guardian newspaper
reported that it was found,
1139
01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:29,840
along with some old plastic bags,
the morning after the party.
1140
01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:33,880
We were pleased to dispose of it
1141
01:01:33,880 --> 01:01:38,640
and restore the Number 10 Downing
Street to its usual shipshape.
1142
01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:43,120
Well, last night, ITV News obtained
video of a mock press conference
1143
01:01:43,120 --> 01:01:45,800
{\an8}that was chaired by
Stratton last December.
1144
01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:48,120
Can you stop, please?
Can you stop?
1145
01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:50,240
I'm going to make a statement.
You don't...
1146
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:53,200
Erm, the British people have
made immense sacrifices in
1147
01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:56,160
the ongoing battle against COVID-19.
1148
01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:57,880
I now fear that my comments in
1149
01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:00,360
the leaked video of the 20th
of December last year
1150
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:03,600
have become a distraction
in that fight.
1151
01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:07,160
My remarks seemed to
make light of the rules -
1152
01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:10,680
rules that people were doing
everything to obey.
1153
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:12,880
That was never my intention.
1154
01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:16,040
I will regret those remarks for
the rest of my days,
1155
01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:17,320
and this afternoon,
1156
01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:20,320
I am offering my resignation
to the Prime Minister.
1157
01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:21,520
Thanks for your time.
1158
01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:25,720
I have been repeatedly assured
that there was no party.
1159
01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:29,920
I can tell you, once again,
that I certainly broke no rules.
1160
01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:34,360
I want, I want to repeat that, er,
I thought it was a work event.
1161
01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:37,440
Will the Prime Minister tell
the House whether there was
1162
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:40,760
a party in Downing Street on
the 13th of November?
1163
01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:44,000
No, but I'm sure that -
whatever happened,
1164
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:45,400
the guidance was followed,
1165
01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:47,840
and the rules were followed
at all times.
1166
01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:51,880
Let me begin, in all humility,
1167
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:53,840
by saying... JEERING
1168
01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:56,280
...that on the 12th of April,
1169
01:02:56,280 --> 01:03:00,240
I received a fixed penalty notice
relating to an event
1170
01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:04,080
in Downing Street on
the 19th of June, 2020.
1171
01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:07,000
I paid the fine immediately,
1172
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:11,720
and I offer the British people
a full apology.
1173
01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:16,280
And I take this opportunity
on the first available sitting day
1174
01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:19,080
to repeat my wholehearted
apology to the House.
1175
01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:35,680
I know that people around the
country will look at those events
1176
01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:39,200
and think they look like
the very kind of events that we,
1177
01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:42,280
or I were forbidding
to everyone else.
1178
01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:01,200
It was not a large social gathering,
it was, it was...
1179
01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:02,800
...it was a gathering intended -
1180
01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:06,400
and I really must insist
on this point.
1181
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:10,000
People who say that
we were partying in lockdown,
1182
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:12,480
simply do not know
what they are talking about.
1183
01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:47,480
