A lot came. He were well-liked.

Well, Jim, you don't know shite, all right?

- Where you going?

- I'll find someone else.

I'm doing you a favour here!

You won't get anyone else

do it for that money, you know?

You know what? Your mother were

an hard-nosed b*tch an' all!

He should have taught both of you

some respect, the soft bastard!

F***!

Away!

Thanks.

Go on.

- Matty.

- Yeah?

Here.

- Shall we crack on?

- Yeah, look, Matty, I'm...

- I'm sorry it's not much. I...

- Don't worry about it.

I don't f***ing believe it.

Alice?

You've sold my f***ing lambs, haven't you?

- I only sold eight. Now we can afford...

- It don't matter. No, no, no.

I told you not to and you've f***ing done it!

You've been away on shift.

Things have to be done.

I don't care! You've gone behind my back.

I told you not to f***ing do it

and you've gone and done it, haven't you?

Selling my lambs to pay your wages now?

Is that how it's going?

- I thought you knew.

- You ain't got enough going on in...

I thought you...

Pack it in! Pack it in!

Don't lay a finger on my sheep

without my say-so.

You're lucky to have her.

Are you okay?

Yeah, fine.

- Take your money.

- I don't want it. You can f*** off.

Don't want your charity.

What the f*** are you playing at?

Eh?

What, are you showing me up

in front of neighbours now?

That the game?

- What you doing with that?

- I thought I'd spray 'em.

I don't spray 'em. I dip 'em.

- Dip's not good for you.

- Well, I dip 'em!

Go on, dip's where it always is.

Get up there.

Ssh.

I've struggled with you being back here.

No, no, I find it hard.

Do you wish I hadn't come?

Ssh.

I've got succession rights and...

I'm gonna claim for tenancy.

Joe...

Can we talk about this, please?

Keep an eye on her.

Do you like my tattoo?

It's all right, yeah.

Do you like me?

What do you want?

Is someone living in there?

No, it's just for feed and that.

It's your sister, isn't it?

Simon Shawcross.

Acquisitions, North Moors Water.

Can I have a word?

These farms aren't making any money

any more, are they, eh?

We sell quite a few of them on

to property developers now.

There's 100 grand in it for the tenant.

We interviewed your sister. Point is...

...we need the farm back.

So if we er... award the tenancy to you,

technically, she'd be trespassing.

So, you evict her, we buy you out.

Money in your pocket. How's that sound?

I'll er... I'll leave you my number.

Give us a ring.

Get it sorted, yeah?

Hey, listen.

If I am awarded this tenancy,

you'll ha' to go.

- What?

- All right?

I don't understand.

If I'm awarded it, you can stay on,

you can work with me.

Won't work.

No, don't, it's all I got!
