Listen to this then,

Two Eskimos, and you've heard
this and we'll laugh, come on.

Two Eskimos are in a boat, and a kayak
goes passed them in the water, very slowly

and the two Eskimos look to each other
and they go, "Ha, I guess you can't

- You can't have your kayak and eat it.

No, um--

It's over.

[Bobby] Leonard, Leonard,
what do you think of this?

Well, I think it-- there's
something about your way.

- [Booby] You agree?
- Well, I don't-- Yeah.

Right, I think it's
time to-- to-- to leave now.

- [Bobby] Yeah.
- Alright?

- [Bobby] Yeah.
- Yeah, okay.

[Mary] It's a lovely skirt, mum.

- [Abby] It is.
- [indistinct chatter]

[Leonard]
Be careful of the tree.

[indistinct]

[Skype ring tone]

- [Iris] There you are.
- [Griffin] Hello.

- How are you?
- I'm great.

It's amazing,
we've got perfect reception.

Who would expect out there,
where the hell you are

- in the middle of nowhere?
- Exactly. [laughing]

Listen, I-- I'm really sorry I didn't get those
gems to you, I feel like a real doorknob.

I just, every time
I've gone to the studio,

it's like, like nine hours
goes by, you know.

I'm just trying to get it out
of me and it's not coming.

Well, I-- it's totally
understandable, I mean--

I really-- I've wanted to,
and I-- It's all I've been thinking about,

it's just been plaguing me.

No, you're-- you're being
a good daughter,

and-- and you're where
you're supposed to be.

I know you've been going
through a lot, how is she?

She's okay, she's, um--

It's kind of--

It's not, not been a great week.

- Okay.
- But, um-- You know,

she's really happy about this,
which is fab.

I-- I-- I-- I sometimes find
with my artists, that--

- You know, that, that escape, you know, you have a gift.
- Yeah.

And that gift, uh,
can help you get through this.

Um--

You play her anything?

Sometimes, yeah, I-- I actually
was singing her this new idea.

- Do you want me to-- Do you wanna hear it?
- Oh, yes, please.

- If you're not gonna send it, you might as well sing it.
- Okay.

Um-- Alright.

It's called The Music.

- Um--
- Okay.

Okay, it's like,

Oh, baby, that's beautiful.

- [Iris] Yeah?
- I wish-- I wish you had your blood red shoes,

and you just marched
right over to me,

and I'd give you a big hug,
that was adorable.

- Griff, oh.
- It's really good.

And yeah, it's a little
rough, it's a little rough,

- but I hear it in there.
- Okay.

Well, it's just, it's just an
etching, it's a scribble of a song.

- Yeah?
- [Griffin] I know how difficult it is to deal with,

family and the personal
and, uh, the pain of that,

and then having to create
at the same time, you know.

- Yeah.
- And, you know, I-- I-- I--

- [Iris] Sister?
- [Abby] Guess what I'm doing.

[Iris] What?

- Packing.
- [Iris] You coming home now?

- Coming home.
- I'm so excited, I haven't seen you for so long.

What time's your flight?

[Abby I am booking [indistinct] I
hope to be home in time for dinner.

[Iris] That's amazing, I've got
your room ready and everything.

I put clean towels on
the bed like you're in a hotel,

so you don't feel
like it's weird.

[Abby] How is everything?
What's going on at home?

How's mum and dad?

[Iris] Um, mum's actually
not here at the moment.

- Why, why not?
- Um, she's gone back into hospital to have some tests.

- Iris, how long ago did she go back to hospital?
- Um--

It's just been happening this week, it's just
all been like sort of-- it's just been mad.

Where's dad,
why hasn't he rung me?

[Iris] I don't know, Abs, it's just, it's just
what's going on, I'm just letting you know.

Pretty shitty of you. How do you
think that makes me feel, by the way,

as a person, when you just
leave me out of everything?

You're not the one who's in control
just, because you're there.

I've got to go, otherwise I'm gonna
miss my flight, but I love you, Iris,

- and I'll-- I'll see you tonight, okay?
- I love you.

- Okay, bye.
- Have a safe flight, Abs.

Bye, babe.

- Ooh, that's a good hug. [chuckles]

- [panting] Alright?
- How are you doing?

- Good, good.
- How is she?

Uh, she's, uh, she's--

She's fine, you know,
she's a bit tired.

- Hm.
- So, um--

- Yeah, so how are things, how's it going?
- Just tell me, dad.

- Tell you? She's okay, they just wanna--
- Just, dad--

- Dad, dad.
- No, they just wanna keep an eye on her, that's all, that's--

Yeah, but why, why do they
wanna keep her in there?

Um, um-- They-- They wanna s--

Just check a few things,
run some tests.

- But what kind of tests?
- So have you heard anything from Bobby?

- Dad.
- How's Bobby? Is he still on the scene or, uh?

- No. You never liked him anyway, did you?
- Why, why?

Well, I like whoever you like,
Iris, if he's making you happy--

Are you gonna tell me
the truth or not?

- I-- I have, I just don't--
- Can I go and see her soon?

We'll see, we'll see. They-- They're
hoping she may come home for a bit.

Come here.

[Griffin] You have so much
on your-- on your plate.

You must be under
tremendous pressure,

- You're worried about your mother.
- Hum.

- [Iris] Yeah.
- I think I can come up with an interesting way

to help you around that,
that I think you're gonna love.

- Really?
- Yeah.

I was thinking maybe
you could have a visitor,

of Eleanor Roberts.

- Show up at your door,
sounds like a game show. -What?

- What are you talk--
- Eleanor Roberts would like to come.

She's heard some
of your work, and, uh...

- What?
- She's a fan, and she knows you're there,

working under
a stressful situation,

and she's offered
to come all the way to Wales,

to help you pull
this all together.

[Iris] Eleanor Roberts wants to
come to Wales and hang out with me?

Just hang out. And this, by the
way, is not typical of her.

- Really?
- It's not like she calls me up and goes,

"What other clients you got that
I can just hop on a plane...

- Really?
- ...and, and go work with." She chose you.

Really?

[Leonard] I don't wanna
put you off your stroke.

- [Iris] Oh.
- Ha ha, boom!

- Beat that.
- Are you joking? Right, rematch.

[chuckles]

Leonard, man, oi.

I had a note to bring
these by here today.

Jackie's gone out
and I was told bring these here.

Well, Jackie is at the hospital,
I thought you were--

- What's she doing at the hospital?
- Well, she's gone to see Mary.

- [Iris] Has she?
- Oh, of course, 'cause of the, 'cause of her--

- Why did Jackie go and see mum?
- Because she's-- Well, because she's her sister.

Why didn't you just come down
with Jackie this morning?

[Keith] Why aren't you working
anyway? Middle of the day,

- chucking balls around here.
- [Leonard] Well, she has been working,

- tell him your news, tell him your news.
- Dad's actually, um,

pretty proud of me at the moment,
'cause I've got some massive news.

- Hm.
- I've got this full length, feature length film,

a Hollywood budget, £10 million,

it features Timothy Edwards
and Charlotte Carol.

When the credits come down,
and if you play your cards right,

you'll be invited
to the premiere.

Who's name is gonna be
on the titles? Iris.

- Nice, it's great, yeah.
- [Iris] Yeah.

You seem quite up
about it, kind of, "Ooh."

- [Leonard] Oh yeah. You'll have to tell Jackie.
- [Iris] I'm so excited.

[Keith] It's a bit
insensitive though, aint it?

Telling me all that,
trying to get me all,

- "Oh, look, we're all excited."
- Well, it is exciting.

- We're all excited about that, and your mother's in hospital.
- What are you talking--

- Keith.
- Your mum's there in hospital, lying there, like,

- beep, beep, beep, and you're like,
- Keith.

- "Ooh, look at me,
making it rain, my $10 million."

[Leonard] Keith, that's enough.

[doorbell ringing]

[Leonard] Door! Hey!

- Come on in.
- Dad. Hey!

- How are you?
- Oh, my god, how are you?

- Come on in.
- Take the weight off--

Oh, sister!

Oh, a bit of sister love.

[chuckling]

- Oh, my god.
- I've got mince all over me,

I don't wanna get it on you.

Yeah, careful with that carrot.

Since when have
you cooked, Iris?

- Do you wanna come help?
- Yeah, of course.

- I'll come help or I'll try.
- Let me take this.

- Are you trying to do mum's recipe?
- Yeah.

[Abby] It's so watery.

- It's liquid.
- No, it's not.

- Abs, do you want a drink or anything?
- It's runny.

I've actually got you some vino.

[Leonard] Shall I, do you
wanna come and sit down?

- Want you-- Want you vino?
- I'm coming, I'm coming.

Okay, we're catching up,

as I've got a million
different things to tell you.

[Keith] Alright!

- Keith.
- I'm cooked in here, aint it?

- Yes. Oh, really?
- Yeah, Keith's here.

- I see that.
- Good old Keith.

- Alright?
- Hm.

[Abby] How's aunt Jackie, Keith?

- Alright.
- Haven't seen her, I think she's--

- Why, dad?
- I don't know,

- he just showed up.
- I haven't seen you in ages.

He came round with boules.

Yeah, it annoys you guys.

Come here. Mm.

- You always kiss me.
- Ah.

- OK. Let me say what I wanted to talk about.
- Yeah.

- So good to see you.
- [Leonard] I mean, mum sends her love, obviously.

[Abby] Does she,
yeah, I wanna know.

Iris told me a little
bit on the phone.

- Yeah.
- I don't know why you didn't

- call me.
- Well, I didn't want to--

I didn't want to bother you,

I mean, you're busy over
there and she's been--

Yeah, but I'm not busy enough,

like I am your eldest daughter.

Yeah, nothing's changed,
I mean, she's--

She's okay, she's okay.

Thanks. Always.

Glass of vino.

- Thanks, Iris.
- Oh, thank you.

- For our lady.
- Where did you get--

Lots of talking,
not much cooking going on.

- I'm just saying like.
- Thanks, Keith.

Take advantage of an experience
that will never come along again.

- Wha-- What!
- The most talented composer.

The inventor of the genre.

- Yeah, um--
- Romance comedy.

Duh, I know, wha-- what?

She would love to come,
drop in, just--

- Wait, hang on.
- Big Eleanor Roberts tool chest.

She's there for you to reach out

and pull anything
out of her experience and--

and help you get to the
place you-- you have to be,

that you're clearly
struggling to get at.

I know this is like a weird
question, but is she nice? Like--

Well, not famously nice,
no, but, um--

She's-- she's
pretty eccentric, she's--

- Really?
- She's very creative, as you know.

This is rather untypical of her,

to be quite so giving,
to tell you the truth.

So I think that's
a testament to your talent.

- Uh--
- Wow.

But she's got, uh--

- she's got a huge heart. And--
- Wow!

- I-- I'm nervous.
- She's got lots of experience she wants to share with you.

[Iris] Yeah, she does
have a lot of experience.

- [Griffin] Yeah.
- I mean, with everything.

- [Griffin chuckles] Well, she's had a life.
- [Iris chuckles]

This is a-- a genre that--
that she practically invented,

the sound of romantic comedy,

and she just wants
to sort of help.

Just don't sleep with her,
things get really complicated after that.

- What? Griff.
- [laughing] Never mind.

- [lady] You never lock the door?
- Keith, give the lady some space.

- Hi. I'm Abby. Iris' big sister. Yeah.
- Hi.

- Oh, my god. You're so pretty.
- [Keith] I'll close the door. Shall I stay in

- or close the door? Close the door, yeah, probably.
- [Abby] Thank you.

- Iris!
- Dad! Dad, you'll never guess what,

Eleanor Roberts wants
to work with me!

- Oh, hi. You're Iris?
- [Iris] Oh, my god.

Yeah, I'm Iris.
What are you doing here?

- My god, I just--
- No, no, I just got off the phone with Griff.

Did you know who I, okay,

'cause they didn't
know who I was,

- and I just felt like I--
- Oh, okay, you came.

Is this the wrong day,
is this the wrong day?

No, he said that maybe you'd
wanna come on Thursday.

I didn't realize
that you'd be here right now.

What day is today?

- It's Tuesday, but I'm so--
- Oh, fuck!

Today, no way--
Oh fuck, oh fuck!

- No, just tell me, wait, what is today?
- Tuesday.

- Tuesday.
- Oh, fuck! You know, I jus-- Fucking whor-- I'm so sorry,

I'm so sorry. I'm, I'm-- You guys
probably don't even swear, I'm so sorry.

- I'm sorry.
- [Keith] I swear a bit, I swear a bit, like, shit, piss.

What happened was he said
just go help this girl,

she's in a lot
of fucking trouble,

I mean, not that you're
in fucking trouble,

'cause he says you're really
brilliant, you're really great,

I can't believe
that you look like this

and you're really that great,
but I'm sure you are.

- She is very talented.
- Yeah, I'm sure, but guess what?

- I think I need a drink.
- [Keith] Yes.

- I can get you a drink.
- [Eleanor] You know why?

- Yeah, wine?
- I'm-- I'm-- Yeah, okay.

Actually Jack Daniels, oh,
did I decide Jack Daniels?

- We actually-- we actually got--
- You know what?

- Brandy, whatever you have.
- Would you like some coke?

- Actually I'm freezing.
- Do you have a jacket?

- Are you cold?
- No, you know what,

I'm fine, I'll just
put my jacket on.

- That's in the summerhouse, I've got--
- [Eleanor] Okay.

- Well, thank you.
- It's alright, no problem.

Have a nice-- Ah!

- Ah, you got my nipple.
- I am so thirsty.

- I'll bring one over.
- Alright.

- Okay, thank you.
- Alright, guys,

I'll see you in a bit.

It's freezing out here,

- I need a sweater or something.
- No, no.

It's fine, I've got one
in there.

Just saying, your daughter
proper twatted my nipple.

- [Abby] Oh Keith.
- Well, I think you deserved it.

What have I done?
I'm making her feel welcome.

A kind of a licky right now.
A kind of a licky.

If she doesn't mind,
what's the problem with it?

I didn't put anything
in her, did I?

It-- it pulls out
and there's a whole--

- Oh, god, it's--
- Kind of throws on that.

- Are you kidding? This is--
- You sort of like, you know.

- [laughing] Oh!
- Just like that.

Oh, my god, you have no idea
how much you've inspired me,

it's like unbelievable, like,

My Body Can't Metabolize
My Excitement,

like that's one of my favorite
songs and I actually--

My Body Can't Metabolize
the Excitement I Crave, yeah.

My Body Can't--
Sorry, it's so embarrassing.

My Body Can't Metabolize
the Excitement I Crave.

It actually inspired the song

that I was thinking
for the movie called, uh,

You Could Be the Person
I Choose to Suffer With.

Do you wanna just
like drum it out?

What, now? You know what,

- actually, I--
- Do you still,

ever feel like that?

I don't know.

No, I don't ever feel
like drummin' it out, no.

- It's like--
- [both screaming]

Can I call you an icon?

No, that's like
a thing on a computer.

Can I call you my hero?

Argh, Eleanor Roberts!

Oh, my god!

Like I just literally wanna
smash my guitar up for you.

Okay, don't smash
your guitar, okay.

[petanque boules clacking]

[Leonard grunts]

Oh, that was pretty good.

- [in Australian accent] Good day, Sheila.
- Oh my.

How are you today?

- Good day, mate.
- You doing well?

Yes, mate, how are you?

Keeping your Parisian
theme, I see,

- even in Wales.
- God, you're annoying.

You can't get it
out of you, can ya?

No, I haven't done
this accent for years.

Just having your tea?

Feeling a little bit you
know, peppy this morning?

- Weirded out by last night?
- [Iris sighs]

I'm not like
totally weirded out,

but maybe a little
bit weirded out, yeah,

but like, it's fine, right.

Who the hell's sleeping
in our summerhouse, mate?

- This is my idol.
- I'm not even gonna pretend to know

- what you're talking about.
- Don't you remember like,

I had her posters on my wall,

composed for some
of my favorite films,

Tomorrow, Yesterday Never Comes.

- Eleanor Roberts.
- [Abby] Yeah, I've seen Tomorrow,

I maybe watched that one, yeah.

Literally like,
she's a living legend.

So how long is she staying?

You know mum's back
this afternoon?

I do, I do know
mum's back this afternoon.

Good, and by the way, I haven't
seen mum in three months.

No, I know, you haven't
seen me in three months.

So I don't want another
distraction.

♪ Three months long, you
Have not seen our mum ♪

Iris, you need to grow up a little
bit and address the situation.

[Iris] But she says
she likes drinking wine,

like in the middle of the night,
if she gets thirsty.

What difficulties are you
having with your work?

- What? Nothing.
- What difficult-- She's obviously here to help you.

Let's-- What's
your boss's name again?

We didn't eat
anything last night.

Oh, God, Iris,
you're always just

skirting around the situation.

I think you need to work out,

maybe spend
the day with her today,

get the work done
and then finish it and get--

Paint me, Jack, like one
of your French ladies.

[laughing]
Stop it, you're so weird.

[Iris] How do you
like to start the day?

- I had an idea,
- Ahem, yeah?

I don't know, I'm just
trying to get into the zone,

'cause I think we should
start working today,

- like pretty shortly.
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
- That's what I'm doing.

Can I just be honest with you?
I've been having

this horrible writer's block,
I literally pick up the guitar

and I don't know
what the fuck to do.

I mean, I think I've got
some of the music down

for the kind of instrumental
just walking around bits.

He wants-- He wants
a lot of like walking music,

when they're not doing
anything or talking,

- all I want is to do--
- Can I just say something?

- a good job, you know.
- I'm just gonna

be really straight
with you, okay?

- Yes, yes, Eleanor, yes, yes.
- Look at me,

look at me, right now.
Just stop.

You're obviously really
talented, you're beautiful,

you've got a ridiculously
fancy life.

I don't even know how you can
create in a house like that.

It's just too much,
I don't know, it's too much,

I mean, why don't you just
hide out in there with me,

stay away from those people,

we'll let them bring us food,

and then we'll just work.

Sorry, I'm never
usually this nervous,

- but I am quite a nervous person.
- Are you nervous?

It's all in you,
but you have to start,

and make your whole body
come alive, you understand?

- So uptight.
- I'm not, I'm not uptight.

You're the most uptight
person I've ever met.

- I'm not, I'm not.
- Weird,

like what is going on,

have you been
in the country too long?

- I do dance, I do dance.
- Do you ever?

I dance all the time.

Well, show me, just be you.

- Just do your thing.
- This is me.

Come on, you're cooler
than that, man, come on.

You don't dance,
you just have to do it.

What are you doing?

Stand up, stand up.

- Yeah.
- [Iris] Bit of that, bit of that, bit of that,

- [Eleanor chuckles]
- you know, bit of fucking that.

[Eleanor laughs]

No? I don't know, like that's the
way I have embarrassed myself again.

Okay, look, look what I found.

Let's have a look.

[chuckles]

- Do you remember?
- Yes, I do.

That's before we did all
the work on the house.

- Yeah.
- Do you remember that boat?

Absolutely, your
grandad made that.

Look at you two.

- I know.
- Those little faces.

Who's that? Do you know?

- You, dad?
- It's a boy.

- Dad's dad.
- Grandad.

- Is it?
- Yes. Yeah, can't you see?

I mean, he does look
like dad, doesn't he?

- He looked exactly--
- Looks like me.

Yeah.

That was on holiday. [gasps]

- Two.
- Look at Abby trying to shove that lolly in my mouth.

Yeah, she always had
a habit of doing that.

So,

when, um,
I went to the hospital,

um, they said that they,
they can't rebalance things anymore.

they've changed
my tablets around,

they've tried different
combinations of everything

and essentially what's happened
is that there is fluid

that's building up
on, on the lungs,

it's all, all going on inside.

Don't say that, mum.

Okay.

I need you to look after Daddy

and Abigail, okay?

I think this job's going
really well, you know?

I think it's gonna be the start

of a lot of really
exciting things.

- I've just got like--
- Did you hear me?

Yeah, I've got
like two more songs,

that I need to get done.

- Yeah, gonna be brilliant. Yeah.
- I mean, the exciting bits for you,

is gonna be
when the credits roll down,

and you see my name.

Yep.

[Leonard] So how did you two
guys meet again?

- Ah, it was about six--
- [Andrew] I've got this,

I've got this. We, er--

She wandered into
my gallery in Paris, saw me.

[Abby] The most prestigious gallery
in Paris, by the way, it is.

And I think it's fair to say

she fell pretty quickly for me.

I've got half a dozen
properties in Paris alone,

couple of hundred
around the world really.

[Andrew] So I'm non-stop.

- Okay, everyone.
- [Andrew] Uh, about five years--

- Everyone. A little bit--
- Are you shushing me?

A little bit of hush please.
Please, Iris, Iris.

Eleanor?

[Leonard] We're trying
to do a toast.

We're just gonna--
We thought it's be lovely

to do a toast
to our mum, who we love.

[Iris] Toast to mummy.

- So much.
- We love you so much.

- Cheers, we love you so much, mum.
- And me.

I'm so glad you
got to meet Andrew,

and, um--

- I love you.
- I love you.

- [Eleanor] Er, mine's a little too, yeah.
- [tapping on glass]

Um, I'd like to make a toast,

to the most gracious,

generous, kind woman.

I would have probably been,
okay, I'm saying it wrong,

if I'd had a mum like you,

I wouldn't be like I am,

in a bad way,
you know what I mean?

- [Iris] Yeah.
- [Eleanor] Like I'd just be--

I'd just be better, 'cause
I never-- I never had that.

So, I am so glad that
you guys have had that

and I know I've gone on too
long, I'm sorry. [clears throat]

[sighs] I'm just
a little drunk, sorry.

But I do wanna say is

that you have the most amazing,

brilliant daughter.
- [all] Here, here. Yes.

She is smart,
funny, sweet, kind.

But really, really
fucking talented.

Really fucking, oh, I'm sorry.

- [Leonard] Language.
- [Eleanor] I'm so sorry,

and really super-duper talented

[chuckles] and I think
you are really--

Um--

Oh, god, sorry, I'm not--
I'm not really good with words,

um-- um-- when people
are looking at me,

I get really, okay, I'm sorry.

You know what, actually I have
to go to the bathroom, um--

And I love you,
is that weird to say?

I just, I do,
excuse me, I'm so sorry.

- Alright.
- She's about to hit the carpet.

[overlapping conversations]

[Iris] How did you
know we were here?

- You're welcome.
- Keith, did you invite Bobby?

- Yep.
- Yeah, is that a problem?

[Iris] Why'd you guys even talk?

- We always talk.
- [Bobby] We talk a lot.

- Bobby.
- Why did we break up?

Please leave.

Do you really wanna
have this conversation

- in front of mum and dad?
- Yes.

I haven't actually
explained it fully

to mum and dad yet, so maybe--

I'm a changed man,
I've changed everything.

A new outlook,
what I do, who I am,

new hobbies. Keith knows.
Keith's the man.

Come on, give it a go,
Keith says you're doing music

and something's going on
with somebody else,

- sounds very strange.
- Nothing's going on.

Before I was not listening
to the music ironically.

Okay, and now I hear it all
and I love fishing now,

everything to do with aquariums,
fish, fish pumps, tank pumps.

And that's been able
to help me make women happy.

I'm a changed man,
I have changed.

There is a lot of change
going on. There's a lot.

And within that change
is change, and more change.

- I used to be about cars, women, booze.
- [coughs]

And I'm no longer
about that anymore.

I like women, sure,
and booze, of course,

but I don't like cars anymore.

- [bartender] Whisky?
- [Eleanor] Just a wee, wee bit,

- A little bit of whisky.
- A wee bit, a titch, just a titch.

[laughter]

- [man] I think you should stop.
- Good.

[woman] I think
you can, like yeah,

a good kiss is definitely a good
indication if somebody's gonna be right.

- You okay?
- I can be a really good kisser

- with one person.
- Yeah, Bobby.

I can't kiss another person.

You don't-- You don't seem okay.

[Eleanor] You know what,
can I just say

- this whole English thing.
- Is-- We're Welsh.

You had to do that
though, didn't you?

Yeah, I know, I'm kind of,
uh, sorry,

immediately sorry about it.

You made a bit of a scene
though, didn't you?

- [muttering]
- You what?

I'm sorry.

- Sorry?
- Yeah, I'm very sorry.

[Iris] Oh, 'cause you
did sleep with Tash.

Look-- [sighs]

Yeah.

[Eleanor] Fucking mouth,
bring that mouth over here.

Some funny business
going on over there,

that's your friend, aint it?

[Eleanor kissing]
Oh, my god, mm, mm.

Wow! I can drink
that shit, man, what is that?

but I did come here to help
you and I have not helped you,

I've made things worse,

and I've just kind of
brought my madness with me,

and I'm not,

And so, what I've done is
I've written you something,

and I hope you like it.

Hm.

[Vicar] We have come together

to commend our sister,
Mary Evans

into the hands of almighty God,
our Heavenly Father,

and in the presence of death,

Christians have showed ground
for hope and confidence,

because the Lord Jesus Christ,

who shared
our human life and death,

was raised again triumphant

and lives forevermore.

In him, his people
find eternal life,

and in this faith,

we put our whole trust

in his goodness and mercy.

Mum.

I'm gonna miss your smile
and your laugh

and having cuddles in bed.

[sighs]

I miss all of
our late night chats about

love and life
and the universe, and--

My mother, Mary Evans

was the kindest,

most thoughtful,

gorgeous woman

I've ever, I've ever known.

I know she's been
preparing us for this day,

me and Abs and Dad.

So I know
what she would have wanted,

and what she does want, which is

for us to go out
into the world and

spread our wings and

find joy and happiness and

be together for the good
and the bad moments, and

all the shades in between,
and we're gonna do you proud, mum,

we're gonna be there
for each other, and

her memory will live on
in our hearts.

I love you, mum.

[crying]

- You came back.
- Hm-mm.

- You want some tea?
- Yeah.

[cutlery clinking]

- God, I feel so embarrassed.
- Well--

It was all weird with you
in the summerhouse, eh?

- [sighs]
- Do you really wanna go there?

- [chuckles]
- I know, I just-- I'm not usually like that.

I don't-- I don't know what came
over me, you know. It's just--

Suddenly it all came out and--

I'm so embarrassed and I don't
know what to say and then--

It was a little traumatizing,
I have to say. [chuckles]

But I'm working through it,
I have professionals to help me.

- Good.
- [laughs]

But, um, I actually, um--

I, uh--

I don't know, I just thought about
a lot of the things that went down,

and I feel like
the energy of us together--

We did something
that I couldn't have done alone,

and I don't think you
could have done alone,

and we did it together.

I actually have written some of the
best songs I've ever written this week

and there's no way that I would
have been able to do that

at the worst time of my life,

have the best thing
also happen to me.

You know, there's
something about

when somebody from the outside,

like somebody from Mars,
comes in

and they just decide
to believe in you.

[melancholic song playing]

And you just decided to come out
of nowhere and believe in me.

And the power of that is...

massive.

Then listen to me,

you're really talented,

and your heart is beautiful,

and your energy is
so crystal clear.

'Cause you're amazing...

No, pasties give me

Yeah, well, they're

Yeah, nice though, but I can do any

I had Welsh cakes the other day.

they are quite dry,
quite claggy.

That's right, it's the dough.

They need a bit

- But, you know.
- You've got to do that.

Yeah, but I kind of need
somebody to show me around,

somebody that's
been there, that--

You know,
that I loved and trusted.

Is that
your roundabout way of...

- Would you?
- ...asking your big sister

to come to L.A. with you,
because you're so gorgeous.

Well, I'd kind of like
to spend time with you.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Aw. Yes, I would love
to do that with you.

- Really?
- That would be amazing.

- Yes. 100%.
- And look after me?

I would definitely,
yes, I'm so in.

- We'll both do it together. I think mum--
- Hm.

- Bobby? Um, I--
- What do you think first

of the-- the spread,
what do you think?

We, uh, we went all out with,
uh, cheesy tomatoes,

thin sliced, um, premium ham,

with a ham and--
and tomato as well,

on that one, and then this is
pizzeria, Welsh pastries.

Do you mind changing the music?
It feels a bit sad and I know

mum really would have wanted us to
dance, and just have a bit more fun.

Um, yeah, no, I'll change it
in a minute, uh--

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Yeah.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

I'm okay.

Fine.

I'm gonna change that--
