    - Yes, 'course he's pleased to see you, Ken.
  • 0:27 - 0:33
    All right, woman, all right. I've got a tongue in my head. I'll do 'talkin'.
  • 0:33 - 0:36
    - Aye ... I like yer fancy suit. Is that what they're wearing up in Yorkshire now?
  • 0:36 - 0:43
    - It's just an ordinary suit, father... it's all I've got apart from the overalls.
  • 0:43 - 0:45
    - How are you liking it down the mine, Ken?
  • 0:45 - 0:46
    - Oh it's not too bad, mum...
  • 0:46 - 0:50

    - Oh that's good.
  • 1:13 - 1:16
    - Good! Good? What do you know about it?
  • 1:16 - 1:18
    What do you know about getting up at five o'clock in t'morning to fly to Paris...
  • 1:18 - 1:22
    back at the Old Vic for drinks at twelve, sweating the day through press interviews,
  • 1:22 - 1:25
    television interviews and getting back here at ten to wrestle with the problem of a
  • 1:25 - 1:30
    homosexual nymphomaniac drug-addict involved in the ritual murder of a well known Scottish footballer.
  • 1:30 - 1:34
    That's a full working day, lad, and don't you forget it!
  • 1:34 - 1:36
    - Oh, don't shout at the boy, father.
  • 1:36 - 1:40
    - Aye, 'ampstead wasn't good enough for you, was it?...
  • 1:40 -
    you had to go poncing off to Barnsley, you and yer coal-mining friends.
  • Not Synced
    - Coal-mining is a wonderful thing father, but it's something you'll never understand.
  • Not Synced
    Just look at you!
  • Not Synced
    - Oh Ken! Be careful! You know what he's like after a few novels.
  • Not Synced
    - Oh come on lad! Come on, out wi' it! What's wrong wi' me?... yet tit!
  • Not Synced
    - I'll tell you what's wrong with you.
  • Not Synced
    Your head's addled with novels and poems,
  • Not Synced
    you come home every evening reeling of Chateau La Tour...
  • Not Synced
    - Oh don't, don't.
  • Not Synced
    - And look what you've done to mother!
  • Not Synced
    She's worn out with meeting film stars, attending premieres and giving gala luncheons...
  • Not Synced
    - There's nowt wrong wi' gala luncheons, lad!
  • Not Synced
    I've had more gala luncheons than you've had hot dinners!
  • Not Synced
    - Oh please!
  • Not Synced
    - Aaaaaaagh!
  • Not Synced
    - Oh no!
  • Not Synced
    - What is it?
  • Not Synced
    - Oh, it's his writer's cramp!
  • Not Synced
    - You never told me about this...
  • Not Synced
    - No, we didn't like to, Kenny.
  • Not Synced
    - I'm all right! I'm all right, woman. Just get him out of here.
  • Not Synced
    - Oh Ken! You'd better go...
  • Not Synced
    - All right. I'm going.
  • Not Synced
    - After all we've done for him...
  • Not Synced
    - Get out! Get out! Get OUT! You ... LABOURER!
  • Not Synced
    - Hey, you know, mother, I think there's a play there.... get t'agent on t'phone.
  • Not Synced
    Aye I think you're right, Frank, it could express, it could express a vital theme of our age...
  • Not Synced
    - Aye.
  • Not Synced
    Oh shut up!
  • Not Synced
    Shut up!
  • Not Synced
    Oh, that's better.
  • Not Synced
    And now for something completely different... a man with three buttocks...
  • Not Synced
    - We've done that!
  • Not Synced
    Oh all right. All right! A man with nine legs.
  • Not Synced
    - He ran away.
  • Not Synced
    Oh... Bloody Hell! Er ... a Scotsman on a horse!
  • Not Synced
    Harold! Come back, Harold! Harold! Come back, Harold! Oh, blast!
