One summer, my dad had a win
on the horses.
but this horse came in at 45-1.
Do we have to keep going over this?!
You know we do.
And he said to my mum, "I'm taking
you and Aggie on holiday. "
And you went to the Cotswolds.
Yes, we did.
He borrowed a tent
and took us camping.
What do you remember of the holiday?
It was magical,
just being in the country.
And at night, we'd sit around
the campfire and I'd tell him
which of the beautiful cottages
I was going to live in one day.
And now that day is almost here.
Yeah. Yet you are still anxious.
No. Are you lonely?
No, I'm talking to you.
Well, we've established, Agatha,
that you comfort-eat
when you're either lonely
or anxious.
This is my breakfast!
It's 350 calories,
and this bacon's so tough,
I reckon it takes me 400 to chew it,
while I'm eating.
being your last day of work? No.
You've always defined yourself
through work, Agatha.
We've talked about it being a shield
for your inferiority and
rootlessness, deep inadequacy and...
I've got another call coming.
We're in session -
don't turn me off!
Aggie, please, we need you.
The boys are launching
their new album this morning
and a photographer caught Danny
in a hotel room last night
with his wife's best friend.
Roy, I'm leaving in two days!
You are handling this.
Aggie, please, please...
I can't stand the woman.
She's so rude.
That's why she doesn't have
any genuine friends...
We want Danny!
We want Danny!
Thank God. It's a nightmare!
Where are the boys?
In the Marlborough Room.
Has Danny's wife had the baby yet?
She's in the hospital now.
Who's got the story?
The Sun's got the pictures.
Are they deniable?
Oh, no, they're not.
What are you doing?
Freshening him up.
No, no, no! We're taking Danny
out of the album launch. What?!
We'll get him photographed
looking sorry and dishevelled,
while I brief the media that it's
the pressures of being a new father
that are the cause
of this little indiscretion.
And that he's going to
the hospital now
to plead forgiveness from his wife.
She's going to kill me.
And you deserve it, you little twit.
Ow! Right.
Just get out there,
start looking sad and sorry.
We need your fans to still love you,
and it's impossible to feel bad
about someone
who looks like they're suffering.
Best publicity this album launch
could have hoped for. OK.
Danny Shine of Boyhood walked out
promising to grow up.
The pressures of fame have been
overwhelming in recent weeks.
Many of his young fans
were heartbroken
at seeing such a crestfallen figure
hurrying to the hospital
to be with his wife
as she expects their first child.
You...? Yeah. Oh, and the...? Yeah.
In entertainment news, Boyhood's
new album, We Can Be Corrupted,
looks set to become the
fastest-selling album of the year.
A double success for Danny Shine,
first time this morning.
How are you feeling, Danny?
I couldn't be happier.
inside of me
# I climbed over mountains
# And found my way back home
# So many lessons that I have learned
# They leave an impression
# A time to return
To walk the wilderness
# And find my way back home
# I was stuck on a losing streak
But you helped me
to find my feet...
I still don't understand
why you're leaving us, Aggie.
Because that's always
been the plan.
Earn enough money and get out of this
rat race before I'm too old.
Don't!
But what are you going to
