00:00¶¶
00:30I wish you'd told me you were going to call.
00:36It could have saved you the trouble.
00:38Well, I don't usually come this way, but back in at the garage this morning,
00:41I suddenly thought, why not make a detour and give my best and most beautiful worker a lift?
00:49Your best and most beautiful worker happens to be canvassing this morning.
00:53Isn't it your job to know things like that?
00:55Oh, yes, of course.
00:57Well, I meant to give you a lift to where you were canvassing.
00:59I start precisely 500 yards from here.
01:05Don't let me keep you.
01:08Oh, I'm in no worry.
01:11Why don't I put the kettle on?
01:13Whatever for?
01:15Coffee, tea. I didn't get anything this morning.
01:17I've had mine, thanks.
01:20In spite of appearances to the contrary.
01:24Don't you sometimes get lonely in here, Marjorie?
01:26No, never. I don't have the time.
01:28Pity.
01:29Oh, why?
01:30I've been meaning to ask you out for some time now.
01:34A reward for your best and most beautiful worker.
01:37Well, no, not so much a reward as a pleasure.
01:40The only pleasure I'm interested in, Councillor Dewsbury, is the pleasure of seeing a Labour government return next week.
01:48Is the Socialist Party fit to govern?
01:56That's a question you can all answer.
02:00They are not fit.
02:02They have never been fit.
02:03They have never been fit.
02:04They will never be fit.
02:07What has the Socialist Party got to offer you?
02:11What is their declared policy?
02:15The old, old story.
02:19They offer you nationalisation.
02:23Churchill has called a cocky election.
02:28Churchill can't wait till Japan is finished.
02:33Churchill has exploited your victory, your courage, your endurance.
02:40Then tell him and the Tories the people's answer.
02:45The people fought and won the war.
02:49The people will win the peace.
02:52The Socialists have no programme.
02:56Only the stale industrial nationalisation.
03:02Land, the building, train, banking, transport, fuel and power.
03:08What next?
03:09Fish and chips?
03:16You know what Churchill has to offer.
03:19You know what the Conservatives can do.
03:23What can the Socialists do?
03:26They can drag this country of ours down to the squalid level of class struggle.
03:34United, we have won the war against Germany.
03:39United, we can win the peace.
03:42One for all and all for one.
03:46All for Churchill.
03:47I didn't know Churchill was a candidate for this division, Councillor Dewsbury.
03:53He's a candidate in every division, John.
03:55They'll regret it.
03:56You think so?
03:57No, sir.
03:58They'll give him the V sign.
04:00They'll tell you what to do with a big cigar.
04:02Well, only Bevin smokes big cigars as big as Churchill.
04:05It's not really as simple as that, is it?
04:08Are you asking me or telling me?
04:10Well, as I am relatively a new boy, I suppose it ought to be a question.
04:16Oh, you know your stuff, lad, which is more than the last Treasurer did.
04:19Do you know what they said to me when I first complained about the way she kept the books?
04:23Oh, but Councillor Dewsbury, she's a widow, she needs the job, she needs to be taken out of herself.
04:29Well, the books weren't all that bad, you know.
04:33Are you feeling guilty because she did her out of a job?
04:36I didn't know it was somebody like that.
04:38Oh, you think we should have kept her on for her sake, rather than get the best Treasurer we could for the party's sake?
04:43You think we should have chosen the candidate because he needed to be taken out of himself?
04:47To tell you the honest truth, I'm supposed to be in it to be taken out of myself.
04:51Huh? Really?
04:53Yes, it was my wife's idea.
04:54Oh, she'll live to regret it.
04:56She set Marjorie loose on me and...
04:58Oh, pretty safe ground there, isn't she?
05:01Don't get you.
05:02Well, I mean, putting her under Marjorie's wing, there's no sex appeal there.
05:05Well, not for my taste, anyway.
05:08Mind you, she has been tarting herself up lately, but it's still mutton dressed as lamb to me.
05:14What's sex appeal got to do with it?
05:15Oh, now, come up it, young John.
05:18It's just as dangerous in this game as it is in business.
05:22You know, working next to some cute little secretary five days a week.
05:25In our case, it's knights, and we share a mutual interest.
05:29Oh, it's rescued many of your marriage.
05:31Rescued?
05:31Ah, all of mine.
05:33His wife was playing around a bit whilst he was in the rap.
05:36He'd been living like a monkey himself.
05:38When he found out, they were practically on the rocks.
05:41Then he met this woman.
05:43I mean, it didn't last, but it did the trick.
05:44And now he and his wife are like two little lovebirds these days.
05:49Hmm.
05:50I gather you don't approve.
05:52I wouldn't recommend it.
05:53Well, why not?
05:54Now, if he hadn't have done it, he would have been nagging about it forever, wouldn't he?
05:59Tit for tat, and he ends up with a happy marriage.
06:02Oh, there she is.
06:03Fresh from the Ustins.
06:05Oh, she's a worker.
06:06I'll say that for her.
06:07I've got that awful John Street in the next ward.
06:12Have you been down there at all?
06:13No, no, I haven't.
06:14He ought to go around in pairs.
06:16I thought it was going to get raped one of these days.
06:19Is my face dirty or something?
06:22No.
06:23Why?
06:23You were looking at me.
06:24Um, Councillor Dewsbury, could you please tell me why I'm going to be two and three times here?
06:39Only me, Margaret.
06:41Well, yes, Dad, I knew it wouldn't be John.
06:43He's down at party headquarters again.
06:46Oh, yes.
06:47Went straight on there from work.
06:48Not much of a change in the town hall, is it?
06:52Just different invoices.
06:54Well, it is voluntary.
06:55It's for a cause.
06:57He seems to think it's a change anyway.
06:59Well, different faces, I suppose.
07:01Changes from looking at you and me.
07:04Yes.
07:05Well, I would like him at home a bit more.
07:07Well, stops him, uh, what would you call it?
07:10Brooding?
07:11Fretting?
07:12What about?
07:12Well, not liking his job, I suppose.
07:16It hasn't improved his temper much.
07:18It hasn't.
07:18Well, you should know.
07:20We live with you.
07:21Well, I've never thought of John as having much of a temper.
07:23Oh, well, you know.
07:24I mean, you know, the other night when Aunt Helen offered to look after John George so that,
07:28well, you know, I would have liked us to have gone out.
07:30Oh, no.
07:31My husband had a previous appointment with politics.
07:33You should have heard him.
07:34Thought he was going to drag his soapbox out.
07:37It's become an obsession, Dad.
07:44Have you seen Marjorie lately?
07:45No, she hasn't been for a bit, has she?
07:50Well, wait.
07:50This is the second lot.
07:51We got this a fortnight ago.
07:53Not much of an advert for their efficiency.
07:55Waste of paper.
07:56Very good for the printing trade, though.
07:58Bugger the printing trade.
08:00I see.
08:01Had a bad day.
08:03Like any other day now, the sword of what's-his-name hanging over me?
08:07Damocles.
08:08Damocles.
08:09Or Fraser.
08:10It's all one.
08:12Has Uncle Sefton said if Mr. Fraser's definitely buying her works?
08:15Nothing since the general meeting.
08:17That's all of a month.
08:18And I won't give him the satisfaction of asking.
08:21Why don't you get in touch with Tony?
08:23My nephew seems to be avoiding me these days.
08:25I wouldn't want to embarrass him.
08:27Oh, no, not that thing again.
08:34Does more harm than good.
08:36What?
08:37Pillowing at the people.
08:38In one ear, out the other.
08:44Marjorie's expenses.
08:46Yes.
08:47Well, no favourites, then.
08:49Right?
08:50I mean, we can't have the candidate unseated because of some technicality like Canvass is charging for lipstick.
08:56You could make a case out for charging lipstick, actually.
08:59Oh, eh?
09:00Yes, well, you'll notice the Tories using pretty girls to canvas.
09:03Yes, I have the lucky bastards.
09:05Maybe that's why Marjorie went labour.
09:08Whereas we use women who look more idealistic.
09:11You mean like Marjorie?
09:13I mean, she just looks hungry to me.
09:15Beware of blue stockings waving banners.
09:17The gospel they really want to preach is equal shares in everything.
09:21It's not society they hate.
09:22It's nature.
09:23Um, Councillor Dewsbury, this is Mr. John Aloysius Flynn of Ruby Street.
09:28I'm very pleased to meet you, Mr. Flynn.
09:29Now, Mr. Flynn has agreed and I asked him to come down here.
09:32He said he wanted to see you personally.
09:34Well, of course, Mr. Flynn.
09:35I'm delighted you could come.
09:36Would you come into my office here?
09:38Ah, very pleased indeed.
09:39Take a few.
09:42Where's the Chancellor of the Exchequer?
09:45Oh, guarding the party purse.
09:47You're enjoying this, aren't you?
09:49Yes, as a matter of fact, I am.
09:51I'd enjoy it a lot more for her who'd come out canvassing.
09:53Ah, are you feeling housebound?
09:55Yes, a bit.
09:56Well, now you know how Margaret feels.
09:58About what?
09:58Being housebound.
10:00About a woman's point of view?
10:01Perhaps.
10:03She wasn't housebound when I was in Belgium, was she?
10:05I don't think I know what you mean.
10:07Oh, come off it, Marjorie.
10:08Oh, all right, then.
10:10I'm not supposed to know what you mean and I would rather not talk about it.
10:13She used to say she was going to see you when she went to see that chap, didn't she?
10:17You covered up for her?
10:18She was my friend.
10:19Is my friend, Ron?
10:21Yes.
10:23Look, I thought you'd settled all that.
10:25Sorted it out between you, except today.
10:28Does one ever.
10:29Well, I thought you would have to if you wanted to stay married.
10:33Where do you go from there if you don't?
10:35Marjorie.
10:37Excuse me.
10:38Hmm.
10:40Hmm.
11:00Yeah.
11:05Thanks, mate.
11:06that's the lot isn't it
11:15uh well there's the old mangle
11:18I told him to take that round the back
11:19David
11:21shouldn't you
11:24give them something
11:25I did about ten minutes ago
11:28didn't you notice the speed up
11:30well
11:36here we are then
11:38home fit for a hero
11:41eh
11:41well are you happy
11:43I will be
11:45what do you mean you will be
11:47I feel a bit like a fish out of water at the moment
11:49I'm sure if somebody knocks on that door
11:52I'm going to shout go four doors down and up the ginnle
11:54oh David
11:57oh no going out to the privy
11:59in the middle of the night and having to keep the door open
12:02because there's a rat in there
12:03nope
12:03that's all behind us Sheila
12:05is it
12:06yes
12:07clean slate
12:09no connection with the old phone
12:11under new management
12:13not another complaint
12:16he just moved back to his old home
12:18left off the register
12:19well no good canvassing there then
12:22I wasn't canvassing you you know about Margaret
12:26weren't you
12:27no
12:28you're right anyway
12:30one does have to learn to accept things
12:33in marriage is elsewhere
12:34elsewhere?
12:36in the world of the single woman
12:38my world
12:39I suppose in
12:41your world
12:43infidelity isn't important
12:45they don't think it's important anyway
12:47unless it endangers a marriage and children are involved
12:51I'm what they call an advanced woman you know
12:54well you're a surprise Uncle Sefton
12:59pleasant I hope Margaret
13:01open house Uncle
13:02always was a welcome in your mother's time
13:04I suppose Tony doesn't happen to be here
13:07no
13:08no
13:09and dad's in
13:10if you'd care to see him
13:11while you're here
13:12might as well have a word
13:14John out working for the opposition is he?
13:17opposition to whom?
13:18you're not one of them are you?
13:20ah
13:20I'm not telling
13:21but there's one in the back room
13:25you're what?
13:28one of them
13:28hmm
13:29they can call themselves what they like
13:31I'm not ashamed to call myself a Churchill Tory
13:33was that for my benefit Sefton?
13:35your benefit?
13:35the party propaganda for my benefit was it?
13:37I didn't come here to talk politics or business Edwin
13:40not with you anyway
13:41Uncle's come to see if Tony's here
13:43oh I thought perhaps he'd come to tell me the bad news
13:45now Edwin
13:48there isn't going to be any bad news
13:50though we're saying that the day war broke out
13:53perhaps I'd better go
13:55it's not the best of times for us to meet is it?
13:57on the eve of an election you mean?
14:00life will go on whichever side wins
14:02I shall ask you to repeat that when Churchill gets his cards
14:04not very likely Edwin
14:08not very likely
14:09what makes you think Tony might be here anyway?
14:13what you thought he might be?
14:15he goes his own way to us Tony
14:17you mean he used to don't you?
14:19he's my son
14:20he's done his bit
14:21he's looking to the future now
14:22we all are aren't we?
14:24don't you ever think of the past Sefton?
14:26not very often
14:27a lot of people do
14:29the future for most people is more or less settled these days
14:32in respect of what they can do about it
14:33one of the few things they can do
14:36is vote
14:37and when they vote
14:37they think of the future
14:38but they remember the past
14:40yes well we all
14:41we had some hard times before the war
14:43we all know that
14:44you had hard times?
14:47oh I suppose not
14:47not me
14:48not like some people did
14:49no I've been very lucky
14:51I know
14:51you don't expect me to regret it do you?
14:53what are you going to do
14:54to make things different Sefton?
14:56provide employment I hope
14:57by selling the works?
14:58by reinvesting
15:00the works will go on
15:01I wish I had your confidence
15:03by God I do
15:04you could retire now couldn't you Sefton?
15:07I'm not asking you what you're worth
15:08but you could retire
15:09there's a push I suppose
15:10I'm not saying I'd like to mind
15:12well nobody likes to
15:13especially when it's not their decision
15:14and they're not of an age
15:16that's where your confidence comes from Sefton
15:19it's your decision
15:21I could go broke of course
15:23that's not very likely is it
15:24you're far too clever for that
15:25compliment Edwin
15:27well if I believed
15:29that a vote for you and yours
15:31was a vote for me
15:32it would be
15:32but your answer to that one
15:35goes in the ballot box
15:36probably the last chance
15:40in my lifetime
15:41to see what I believe in
15:44put into practice
15:45were you around when the bombing was on?
15:49I was in a cellar in Antwerp
15:50hiding from the cherries
15:51went adrift just after Dunkirk
15:54or just before actually
15:57missed the last of us home
15:58you might say
15:59oh we were all very matey
16:00in those days
16:01it's going already
16:02everything back to normal
16:03because there's an election on
16:05do you think?
16:06well partly
16:07but it always seemed
16:08a bit unnatural to me anyway
16:09all pals together
16:11just because we were all
16:12getting kicked up the backside
16:13there you are
16:14thanks
16:16Antwerp did you say?

18:08ads?
18:10yeah see what's going
18:11oh
18:12you mean like furniture?
18:14yeah like furniture
18:15like anything

18:18hmm?
18:19how much money have we got left?
18:21one?
18:22I told you
18:22well couldn't we spend some of it?
18:26just a bit
18:26you know
18:27just a couple of pieces maybe
18:29second hand
18:30second hand?
18:31well we don't want this
18:32utility stuff anyway
18:34and it's dockets
18:35well some of it's not bad
18:37anyway we're alright for a bit
18:40aren't we?
18:41what with that stuff?
18:42well yes just for now
18:43oh I don't know
18:44it looks worse in here somehow
18:47at least in the other place
18:49it looks as if it belonged
18:50hey
18:51who's always telling me
18:54not to spend eh?
18:57look just because we've never had it
18:58you know
18:58it doesn't mean to say
18:59we never will
19:00but just one thing at a time
19:01Sheila
19:02you sound like me now
19:03just that sometimes
19:05I don't think it's gonna happen
19:06that's all
19:07you've still got one foot in the past
19:11listen I'm over 30 David
19:12I want my kids back

19:14but I just
19:16I want things to be right for them
19:18oh well I suppose
19:21if going without furniture
19:23means playing it safe
19:24then I'll have to settle for that
19:25bit of security
19:27we're like your
19:30Margaret and her John
19:31what a job at the town hall
19:33a job with a pension
19:35they haven't even got their own house
19:37at least he's got a safe job
19:39safe doesn't get you anywhere
19:42Sheila
19:42I mean dad's safe

22:12I didn't say when
22:15I'll do it some other Saturday
22:17well why not this Saturday?
22:19oh Margaret
22:19there are more important things in life
22:21than distempering attics
22:23oh
22:23had you anything particular in mind?
22:26living for instance
22:27I see
22:28so this afternoon
22:29you're going to go out
22:30and just live
22:31or I'm going to do something I want to do
22:34something I enjoy doing
22:35at Labour Party headquarters?
22:38well they're expecting me anyway
22:39it's become a full-time job these days hasn't it?
22:42that was your idea
22:43you pushed me into it
22:43I wanted you to have an interest
22:44not an obsession
22:45it's not an obsession
22:47look
22:49there's an election coming up
22:51that's going to decide the future
22:52yours, mine and Johnny's
22:54tell me about it
22:55about what?
22:56well tell me what's so important about it
22:58and if you can't see that
23:00maybe I like to discuss things with my husband
23:03I may not be on Marjorie's level
23:05when it comes to having an intelligent conversation
23:06about politics
23:07but I mean we all have to start somewhere
23:09don't we?
23:10you never know
23:10you might get a vote
23:11I've got to go to work
23:13and I suppose you'll be going straight on from there?
23:17yes
23:18I will
23:18I see
23:20well have an exciting time
23:23give my love to Marjorie
23:26Marjorie?
23:27you see her at school five days a week
23:29she's smartened herself up a lot lately
23:31hasn't she?
23:33well why shouldn't she?
23:34what's it going to do with me?
23:35oh well just if it was Marjorie
23:36sitting across the breakfast table
23:38I suppose you'd be talking your head off
23:39you're jealous
23:40oh Marjorie
23:41if anybody got cause to be jealous
23:42in this establishment
23:43I should have thought it was me
23:44I see
23:45that's still festering is it?
23:48ghost of Mr. Armstrong
23:49he is not a ghost
23:51he's very much alive
23:52oh is he what?
23:53has he written to you lately?
23:54of course he hasn't
23:55look what I'm saying is that
23:58he didn't go away by
23:59departing this life
24:00I sent him packing
24:02so I could go on living with you
24:04oh thanks
24:06thanks very much
24:07I don't think I did thank you properly
24:09did I?
24:09not humbly enough
24:10very humble thanks
24:11don't be so petty
24:11I bet Mr. Armstrong wasn't petty
24:13well at least he didn't think I taught rubbish
24:15and he was intelligent
24:16what?
24:17oh I see
24:18you've always said he wasn't important
24:19it didn't matter
24:20it wasn't worth talking about
24:21carry on talk about him
24:22oh
24:22just leave me alone
24:24go on get off topic
24:25hmm right
24:25politics
24:37is that what slammed the door?
24:39it doesn't worry him
24:40that I don't believe
24:40in the things that he does
24:41and you think it should?
24:42he doesn't even bother
24:43to try to convert me
24:44he stands a chance then
24:46I'm not exactly dyed in the wool
24:47am I?
24:48you know
24:48he was getting really interested
24:50in that teacher's training course
24:51until this lot came along
24:52he hasn't given it a thought since
24:54politics needs people like John Love
24:56I should have thought that teaching did too
24:58I know I told him I wanted him to have an interest
25:00but it's becoming an obsession
25:02oh
25:02I wouldn't say that
25:04well something certainly got into his bloodstream
25:06well
25:10perhaps we put it in the front room
25:13front room fire I should think
25:15that must have been out of my mind
25:16well let's get on with altering
25:18Seth's curtains
25:19does he know that I've got his curtains?
25:22well he hasn't seen them for five years
25:24unless they've been behind the blackout
25:25in Mrs Foster's room
25:26oh
25:26anyway
25:28he said he'd leave it to me
25:30well that was nice of him
25:31oh he can be quite nice in his way you know
25:33he's a bit of an old charmer really
25:36depends which end you look at him from
25:39that goes for a lot of people doesn't it?
25:41I suppose it does
25:42I don't know him really
25:45he's just David's rich uncle to me
25:46my dad was a docker
25:48we all vote Labour
25:49my side of the family
25:50oh where do you think I vote?
25:52oh conservative don't you?
25:55or is it um
25:56liberal?
25:58no I vote Labour
25:59good heavens you don't
26:01does sir he know?
26:03I don't think so
26:05we've never discussed it
26:06I think he thinks no sister of his
26:08could possibly do such a thing
26:09he'd probably question my sanity
26:11well Jack always voted Labour
26:15they've had a Labour government in Australia
26:18since 1941
26:19they've been the vote conservative
26:21but not me
26:23I'll not
26:25be sorry to vote against Mr Churchill though
26:27yes well a lot of people will
26:29but they'll do it
26:29they've had the blood
26:31tears and sweat
26:32they don't want any more
26:33I know it's not the same
26:34now the war's over is it?
26:36see that's why I don't want
26:37to get my kids back here too soon

26:41I mean now it's not the Germans

26:44it'll be life I suppose
26:46running pretty close isn't it?
