Yeah.

00:31:10.619 --> 00:31:12.787
Must be hard for the family,
being out on strike.

00:31:12.871 --> 00:31:15.414
He is out on strike, isn't he?

00:31:15.499 --> 00:31:16.582
Of course.

00:31:16.667 --> 00:31:18.960
I shouldn't worry. It won't last long.

It's just a few bloody commies,
stirring things up.

00:31:25.300 --> 00:31:27.885
Let's face it.
They haven't got a leg to stand on.

Who doesn't?

00:31:29.888 --> 00:31:33.432
The miners. It stands to reason, doesn't it?

00:31:33.725 --> 00:31:35.810
Some pits are just uneconomical.

00:31:35.894 --> 00:31:38.938
If it costs more money to pay everybody
to dig the coal out

00:31:39.022 --> 00:31:41.857
than you get for the coal when you sell it,
what does that tell you?

00:31:41.942 --> 00:31:43.401
Don't know.

00:31:43.485 --> 00:31:46.404
Well, you wanna think about that,
don't you, son?

00:31:46.488 --> 00:31:47.530
MRS WILKINSON: Tom.

00:31:47.614 --> 00:31:50.533
If it was up to me,
I'd shut the lot of them down tomorrow.

00:31:50.617 --> 00:31:51.951
For God's sake.

What do you do, Mr Wilkinson?

00:31:55.872 --> 00:31:58.374
DEBBIE: He's been made redundant.

00:32:04.256 --> 00:32:05.756
I thought he was gonna hit me or something.

00:32:05.841 --> 00:32:09.468
Don't be silly.
He's just under a lot of pressure.

00:32:09.553 --> 00:32:13.264
That's what Mom says.
I think it's because he drinks too much.

00:32:13.348 --> 00:32:15.266
Does he drink too much, like?

00:32:15.350 --> 00:32:18.060
He's always pissed. Once he pissed himself.

00:32:18.145 --> 00:32:19.395
Your dad?

00:32:19.479 --> 00:32:23.024
'Cause he's unhappy and that.
'Cause they sleep in separate beds.

Why do they sleep in separate beds?

00:32:24.610 --> 00:32:26.652
So they can't have sex.

00:32:26.737 --> 00:32:28.321
Do they not have sex, like?

00:32:28.405 --> 00:32:32.408
Dad did it with this woman from work,
but they don't think I know.

00:32:35.871 --> 00:32:37.872
Do you miss your mom, then?

00:32:38.999 --> 00:32:43.461
Don't really miss her as such.
It's more like just feeling sad.

00:32:44.171 --> 00:32:47.256
Especially when I remember her
all of a sudden.

00:32:47.382 --> 00:32:50.134
When I forgot that she was dead and that.

00:32:50.886 --> 00:32:53.387
What about your mom?
Does she not have sex?

00:32:53.513 --> 00:32:56.766
No, she's unfulfilled.
That's why she does dancing.

00:32:56.892 --> 00:32:59.352
She does dancing instead of sex?

00:32:59.436 --> 00:33:00.895
Your family's weird.

00:33:00.979 --> 00:33:02.647
No, they're not.

00:33:05.984 --> 00:33:08.235

This'll sound strange, Billy,
but for some time now

I've been thinking of the Royal Ballet School.

00:34:36.158 --> 00:34:37.658
Aren't you a bit old, Miss?

No, not me. You!

They hold auditions in Newcastle.

I'd never be good enough.
I hardly know aught.

00:34:49.463 --> 00:34:51.797
No. Look, they're not interested in
how much ballet you know.

00:34:51.882 --> 00:34:54.300
They teach you that.
That's why they're a ballet school.

It's how you move and
how you express yourself that's important.

affect our final decision.

01:27:29.161 --> 01:27:33.831
can you tell us why you first became
interested in the ballet?

Just was.

Well, was there any particular
aspect of the ballet

your personal circumstances.
