Weekend

(Door opens)

(Bicycle freewheel clicking)

(Water splashing)

(Phone buzzing)

(Dog barking)

(Music on earphones)

Hiya! You're always fucking

late, you, aren't you?

- Sorry.

- Oh, it's good to see you.

And you.

- Come in.

- You look really good.

(Giggles) Get in!

- Is Jamie through there?

Yeah, they're in the living

room, they're all in there.

- Cathy, your oven's not working.

- Don't worry about it, it'll be all right.

(Men shouting) - All right?

All right?

- How you doing?

- Yeah, good.

- I made a bet you'd be on time tonight.

- Sorry.

- Hiya!

- Hiya.

I had a late shift at work.

- Well, you're here now. Beer?

- Yeah, cheers.

And something to

get you started.

- All right, Russ?

- All right, Johnny. How you doing?

This is Damien.

All right, mate?

- Get that down you, warm your cockles.

- Cheers.

- There you go.

- Thanks, buddy.

(Jamie laughs)

- Here we are! (Chatter)

There's no poppadoms,

I'm sorry, we're out.

What have we got?

Here, Jamie, Jamie, Jamie!

Have you got a plate, Johnny?

Hold on.

- We haven't got enough plates.

- We haven't got enough plates.

- This is doing my head in.

- Take these off me.

(Chatter)

- Get lost.

(Woman) It's all right, we'll share.

- Cath, have you got another plate?

- Another plate? Have we not got enough?

No.

You need one, as well. Get two.

(Woman) You can eat from the

packet, you'll be fine.

(Cathy) I'll just have a small one.

- I'll have any one.

Actually, you should have the

small one cos you were late.

(Johnny) All right, this stag do,

right, I'm thinking, a few...

couple of beers, go out, you

know, sambucas, all that...

- strip club.

- Definitely.

No, you're not

having a stripper.

- No, no, no, you're not invited.

- You're not having a stripper!

You've got to have a stripper.

It's traditional, isn't it?

- It is traditional.

- Tradition.

(Helen) It's not

traditional, it's foul.

I'm not going to have a stripper.

I don't see why you should.

It's not foul. Get a classy one.

It's just natural - get a classy one!

(Cathy) Russ, you wouldn't

like a stripper, would you?

- I don't know, I don't...

- Yeah, he's all right with a stripper,

in't you, eh?

Right? So...

(Jamie) Russ starts a little fire, nice

and cosy in the middle of the field,

and before you know it these

fifth years come along

and they're just adding

wood and adding wood,

there's a big line of people just adding wood.

The fire is fucking massive.

- The flames are higher than this house.

(Laughter)

Look, I'm not joking!

- And then we are... And then...

- It's true.

...any minute, we're

surrounded by police,

the whole perimeter

of the entire field

with those million-power

candle torches things.

(Laughter)

- And an Astra burns on, full beam,

and we all scarper, you're fucking

left there stoned out your mind!

(Laughter)

You are coming on

Sunday, aren't you?

You're joking?

I don't think I can handle

it without you being there.

I can't wait, mate.

I've got Lois the

sweetest little present.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

That's nice. Well, of course you have -

that's why we made you the godfather.

- It's nice to see you, mate.

- Yeah.

You've been keeping a

low profile recently.

- Mmm.

- Anything to tell?

Er...

Yeah, there's...

there's a promotion at work.

- Ah, promotion.

- Been doing a few extra shifts.

Come on, let me in, let me in,

let me in, let me in, let me in!

- All right?

- All right, mate?

Here, give us that.

Eh? What do you reckon?

- I look like, er...
