(bright music)

(upbeat orchestral music)

- [Radio Announcer
1] Unbelievable.

Another cracking
day across Belfast.

- [Radio Announcer
2] Yeah, highs of 20

until around 8
o'clock this evening,

so enjoy what is guaranteed
to be a beautiful day.

(upbeat orchestral music)

- [Radio Announcer 1]
On a day like today,

I could think of nothing better

than going to the golf
course after the show,



but it's meetings, meetings
and more meetings for me.

What about you today?

- [Radio Announcer 2]
Probably a good thing

'cause your golf sucks.

I'm heading into Belfast.

I love the fact that there's
so many movies being made here

in northern Ireland
and I have heard

that there could be
some celeb spotting

to be done because
there's an A-lister

potentially arriving in
Northern Ireland today.

- [Radio Announcer
1] 8:25 on the road

to cross northern Ireland.

Everything's moving
well this morning.

Good news, we're back
with more after this.



- [Announcer] Cool FM.

(bright orchestral music)

- That's enough Lily.

We don't want our
special guest showing up

and the first thing to greet
him's your under carriage.

- All right, keep
your way going Marcus.

(bright orchestral music)

- Lucy?
- Yeah.

- Turn the frown upside down.

What are these still doing here?

I need them in the Titanic
Suite on the coffee table.

(bright orchestral music)

(siren blaring)

- He's here.

- Okay, action, stations ready.

(bright orchestral music)

(Marcus exhales)

(dramatic orchestral music)

Welcome, I'm Marcus
the hotel's manager.

- Hey, what's up, Marcus.

It's cool to be here.

- Follow me and
I'll check you in.

Lucy.

Could you check in
Mr. Zack Goliath?

- Zack was my character's name.

My real name is Josh.

Josh Jenkins.

- Of course.

I'm so sorry, I'm just
a huge fan of your show.

On the core, he's insane.

Go, go, Goliath's game.

A giant on the court
with arms like a crane,

go, go Goliath's game.

Take you up here
to your wee room.

Here it is.

It's one of our finest rooms.

You've got a city view,

duck down pillows.

The bathroom has a Jacuzzi bath

with complimentary
Irish bar body scrub

and as this is
the Titanic Suite,

life jacket's under
the bed (laughs).

- [Lucy] Lily, what about these?

- Wow, this is awesome, man.

When you said wee room,

I thought, heck, will I fit.

(both laugh)

- Ah, ha, Mr. Jenkins.

- Please, call me Josh.

- Josh.

Can I be really cheeky
and ask you to sign this.

- Oh, wow.

Man, I haven't seen
one of these in years.

Sure, why not?

- [Marcus] So what
has you in Belfast?

- Well, the plan
is to make a movie

with my production
company, Goliath Films.

Now the script's
pretty much there,

so I want to check
out some locations,

I wanna do some casting,

but mainly, I wanna get a real
authentic feel for Belfast.

- Sure.

A movie, it's
exciting, isn't it?

So what's it gonna be called.

- "City of Trouble."

- "City of Trouble." Nice.

You know, if you're
looking for any actors,

I'm your man.

- Ha, well, you oughta read
for me when I'm casting.

- Audition?

- Yeah.

- Amazing, this day
doesn't get any better.

(Lily knocking)

About time.
- Sorry.

- Wow, this is just
perfect, Marcus. Thank you.

- My pleasure.

If you need anything while
you're here, anything,

anything at all,
you call Marcus.

- Hey, man, can
you call me a cab?

- Where are you off to, sir?

- Oh, I wanna get a
handle on this place,

you know what I'm saying?

I wanna get a real
feel for the city.

- Well, in that
cast, the best way

to see Belfast, the
real authentic way,

is to walk it.

- Is it safe?

You know, just walking around?

- Safe as houses, sir.

- Okay, cool.

Please, call me Josh

and I'm supposed to call you?

- Vinnie.

- It's a pleasure
to meet you, Josh.

- Okay, yeah, great, um, yeah,
I'll see you around, Joe.

(bright orchestral music)

(camera clicks)

(bright orchestral music)

(camera clicks)

(bright orchestral music)

(camera clicks)

(gentle piano music)

(guests applauding)

Thank you.

Oh, no, no, no, I got that.

You put that on my room.

- You're really generous.

Thank you.

- [Man] Oh, go on, give
us your theme tune.

- [Woman] Go on.

- [Josh] Like I said before-

- [Man] On the court.

- [Together] He's insane.

Go, go, Goliath's game.

Giant on the court,
arms like a crane.

Go, go Goliath's game.

- [Man] You ever see
any of the other actors?

- For crying out loud, no.

I mean, we've all moved on,

so, so should all of you.

I didn't mean that
you have to leave.

Hey, where are you going?

- Hard being famous
and good looking.

- Yeah, it sure is.

- You find out, as well?

(Josh laughs)

My dad used to say, Patrick,

you're not that important.

None of us are that important.

- [Josh] What are you gonna
give me your autograph now?

(Patrick laughs)

- Take one of those
in the morning,

it'll sort you out.

(shower running)

- Hello!

Hello!

Housekeeping.

- What the?

- It's all right, love.

It's nothing that I
haven't seen before.

Although I must say you're
in a bit better shape

than the usual ones around here.

You can pass your MOT anytime-

- [Josh] Get outta my room!

- I'm sorry.
- Just get out.

- I'm sorry.
- Now!

- [Lily] I'm just a cleaner.

- Hey, is this gluten free?

- Yeah.

- Are you sure this
is gluten free?

- Oh, I've never been more sure

of anything in my life.

You look awful familiar.

- No, I don't do autographs.

- Autograph?

No, I was gonna say
that my ma loves you.

Yeah, she said that
you were in town,

but well, I never heard of you.

- Next.

Hey, come on in, man.

Stand on that mark.

Look into the camera.

State your name, age and agent.

- Josh.

It's me, Marcus.

- Yeah, I know, but you have

to say it to the camera.

- Yeah.

Of course.

- We're recording, right?

- Hi, I'm Marcus
Dittynip and I'm-

- (laughs) No way, your name
cannot be Dittynip (laughs).

- Yes, it is.

- Ah.

Okay.

Um, I'm sorry,
let's start again.

- Hi, I'm Marcus Dittynip.

I'm 34, I'm current
in between agents.

- Okay, um, let's
start at page 36.

Soldier number three.

- Soldier number three?

But I thought I was
reading Captain Dan Carter.

- No offense, Marcus,
but you're not 6 foot 4

or good looking.

- Well, I could
still give it a go.

- Look, man, I'm
trying to give you

an opportunity here
and soldier three

is a damn good part.

- He's in it for
like five seconds.

He's wearing a gas mask.

I mean, they won't
even know it's me.

I'm sorry here, Josh,

but you said I could audition.

- Yeah, I threw it out there

that you could audition,

but now you're
just being a diva.

Look, man, even if you were
good enough, imagine this.

Captain Dan Carter,
our valiant hero

of the "City of
Trouble, starring Marcus
Dittynip (laughs).

Next.

He, man, stand on the mark.

Name, age and agent
to the camera.

- Hey, I'm John.

(gentle music)

- I'm sorry, Mr. Jenkins,

but I can't think of
any other contacts

or places that would suit
what you're looking for.

I think maybe-

- Listen, honey, you
got Google, yeah?

Look it up.

In fact, just leave
it, I'll do it myself.

(coins clanking)

Watch where you're going.

- [Mel] I'm sorry.

- Are you all right, darling?

- Grace.

Gracey.

All right, Mum, I'll
be half an hour tops.

- That's all right,
love, don't worry.

- Okay, all right,
give me a kiss.

Be a good girl, all right.

See you later.

- Is Mel okay?

He has no manners, so he hasn't.

What is "Goliath's Game" anyway?

- Oh, it was a TV show.

The whole of northern
Ireland watched it.

I suppose it was
bit of late relief

for us back then.

- I've never heard of it.

I was only born in 94.

- I have bras older than you.

- Do you know he never tips?

He's only been here three days

and already his bill is massive.

Apparently he doesn't go back

to Los Angeles for another week.

- Well, that'll give Los
Angeles a bit of a break.

(both laughing)

- You okay, Grace.

- They can't do
this to me, Claudia.

Claudia, they just can't.

- I am so, so sorry, my love.

I just got the call
from Lance's office

and the studio is
definitely out.

- But why?

I mean, they loved
the idea, didn't they?

I mean, they bought it.

- Yes, Lance loved the idea

and wanted to invest,
but how do I say this.

Honest answer, he wasn't
a fan of the script.

- Script?

But I'm here in
Belfast rewriting

the script for crying out loud.

- Oh, Josh, darling,

the producers have
no understanding

of the artistic process
what so and ever.

But, on a more positive note,

I have just heard back
from Celebrity Circus

and they are considering you

as long as I can get

the network to rerun
"Goliath's Game" in time.

- I mean, the casting
was almost there.

The crew was all-

- Oh, Josh, I am so,
so sorry my darling.

- I put everything I
had into this Claudia.

Everything.
- Josh, Josh.

- Claudia.

- Josh, this is such a bad line.

- Claudia.

(dramatic music)

- Well, oh, well.

(computer ringing)

Oh, I've got you man,
I've got you now.

- Mr. Jenkins?

Can I help you?

- No, uh, thank you, Marcus.

I was just about to check out.

- Oh, I thought you
weren't checking out

until next, uh-

- Change of plan, I
have to go tonight.

- Sure.

That's no problem.

We can sort that for you.

I don't know how you do things

in California, Mr. Jenkins,

but in this part of the world,

we usually check
out at reception.

- Ah, good to know.

- I'm sorry, Mr. Jenkins,

this card is being
declined, as well.

- Look.

I'm having a tiny
temporary issue

with the cash flow right now due

to the fact that I've
invested everything I have

in this movie and
one of my funders

just sort of pulled out.

Marcus, I've missed
my flight now.

Can I stay here
for just one night?

- I'm afraid you can't stay here

for one more minute.

Vinnie.

- What am I gonna do,
I don't have any money,

I don't have anywhere to go.

- Not my problem.

- Not your problem?

Listen, you-

- May I remind you that we have

a copy of your passport,

so I would suggest
you settle your bill

as soon as possible.

Otherwise, we will
have no alternative

other than phoning the police.

- The police?

- Vinnie.

- This way.

Josh.

- Hey!

(door slams)

- Come on.

You can stay with
us for the night.

Wouldn't see you stuck.

Come on, or would you rather
spend the night with them ones?

Come on, sweetheart.

- [Lily] There you go.

(gentle orchestral music)

- [Billy] The door,
the door, the door!

- Well, here we are,
home sweet home.

Now, this is, uh-

- Uh, Josh, Josh Jenkins.

- Did you win him
in bingo, Mummy?

- This is Billy Robert
and this is Kanye.

- Kanye?

- Do you have a problem
with his name, big lad?

- No.

- He's staying with us.

- Yes, and look,
why don't you hang

your coat up and
boys, you go give Josh

a hand with his luggage.

Right.

- I'm good, thank you.

What even is that?

- Oh, just what I had
left in the freezer.

- You guys eat this stuff?

- He's a stuck up
scumbag, Nanny.

- Right, boys, why
don't you go off to bed.

That's good boys.

- Night, Mr. Jenkins.

You can mind my wand
till the morning,

but don't use it

because only princesses
are allowed to use it.

Maybe I'll just have it

and you can have it tomorrow.

- Go on, Grace, go on
and get ready for bed.

- Night, pet.

- I'll be out of here
tomorrow for sure.

Don't you worry about that.

- It's own brand,

so if it's not fancy
enough for you,

you don't have to drink it.

Night.

(dog barking)

(whimsical music)

- Evacuate the area!

Evacuate the area!

- You brats. You could have
given me a heart attack.

- Hey, hey, hey,
what's going on?

- These two goofballs
nearly killed me.

- Duh, they're toy guns.

- Billy Robert, Kanye,
outside and play, now.

- Unbelievable.

- I'll tell you
what's unbelievable.

You do not come into my house

and assault my grandchildren.

Only I'm allowed to do that.

You need to wade your neck in.

- I don't even know
what you just said.

- You've got
Google, haven't you?

Well, look it up.

And unless you
want to be crowned

the woman of the year,

I suggest you take a
wee look in the mirror.

(phone buzzing)

All right, darling, come on.

Come on and I'll get you
ready for going to dancing.

- Hey, what's up, man.

Yeah, I'm good.

I'm real good, you?

I'm psyched for you, man.

- There he is.

That's him.

- It's not.

- I'm in a little bit of
a situation right now.

I need to catch a
flight out of Belfast.

- Oh, so it is.

- It's not, no it's not.

- It's just I got a little issue

with the cash flow right now and

I just need enough
for a flight back.

What do you mean not this time?

I mean, hello?

Jerk.

(whimsical music)

- Everybody ready?

And one, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.

Lovely, head up.

- Grace, you're late.

Join in front of Megan there.

- Joanie, Nanny got
my new ballet pumps.

- They're not new.

- Well, I like them.

Your hair's nice today.

- We're gonna take it
again from the top.

And one, two, three,
four, five, six.

Keep your head up
Jodie McMillan.

Nobody wants to see your nits.

And smile.

We want people to
think you're happy.

One, two, oh, okay, stop,
Sammy, stop, stop, stop.

We have a show to put on

in a few days for your
mommies and daddies

and it needs to be good.

I mean, Grace, love,
which is your left hand.

Just if you follow Megan, okay?

Five, six, seven, eight,
one, two, three, four.

- Oh, hiya, I was just leaving

so you can have some P and Q.

- Uh, what's your?

- Lily.

- Lily.

Look, I'm having a problem
accessing cash right now.

- Do you want something?

Is that face asking me

if you could stay here
for another day or two?

- Belfast people are
so straightforward.

- I was a stranger
and you took me in.

- Is that a yes?

- Well, it's not a no.

- Nice day, Lily.

- What's the black
American fellow doing here?

- See you later, Suzie.

- You were always useless
for gossip, sister.

I wonder what's going on?

What are you doing?

- Well, you never know.

- Never know what?

- Um, handsome
American hunk, me.

- Put them away.

- I'm not sure
anybody would notice.

- No, but you can see
them from outer space.

Eighth wonder of
the world, them.

- Everybody take a break.

Hi.

- Joanie, I haven't got
her fees immediately,

but like definitely next week.

- It's fine.

How's Kanye getting on?

- Yeah, they're saying
he's got selective mutism

or something, but I don't know.

- Well, you're very welcome

to bring him to class.

- Oh, he's oh so impossible,

all up with sass with the noise

and Irish tone.

- Okay, and what about Grace?

- Yeah, she's okay.

Yeah, she still tires easily,

no real improvement.

- Yeah, I have noticed that.

But she's still the life
and soul of the party.

I'll keep my eye on her.

- Yeah, thank you.

- Right, what's going on?

- Grace said a movie
star from America

is staying at her house

and is coming to our show.

- Right, and I'm marrying
Leonardo DiCaprio.

I can't even get a day,
let alone a marriage.

- Well, she could marry me.

- Yeah, marry Simon, please.

- Right, enough fantasizing
about movie starts, let's dance.

- He is going to
come, I promise.

- Okay, Grace,
back into position.

- Well?

- Hey, Mom? Is here here?

- Why, he's here for sure.

- What are you doing here?

I said I'd call.

- I just came here
to give you these.

Happy birthday.

The boys made them.

They ask about you, you know.

- Right.

- Grace made one, too.

- Well, that was unnecessary.

- Yeah, sorry, um, I was
just helping the boys

and she wanted in the action.

- I suppose it's the
thought that counts.

- Are you able to see
the boys sometime or?

I could bring them round here.

- Oh, no, don't bring
them around here.

I get awful busy.

I'll be in touch.

- But you never see them.

You could pop
around to the house

or take them to the park or...

Look, I'm worried about Kanye.

- Well, you should have thought

about that be...

I'll check me diary.

I have a lot on.

I'll call you.

- Yeah, if you could
let me know when,

that'll be great.

- Those windows won't clean
themselves Lily Davidson.

- Probably not Marcus Davidson.

(phone ringing)

- Hey, Gina, thanks
for calling me back.

So you're good
wiring me some cash?

Sure, I can wait a few days.

Why don't I take you out

to dinner in Venice
Beach when I get back

as a thank you?

Okay, I gotta go,
ciao beautiful.

(gentle music)

Hey.

- Hi.

We're on our way to
Grace's dance show.

Would you like to join us?

- Uh.

- Please come.

Nobody believes that
you stay with us.

They laugh at me, please.

- I can't.

- Grace, leave him alone,

he's happy being miserable.

- What?

I got location work I gotta do.

I'm starting my scene anyways.

- Mate, did you
not get the memo?

What our Grace wants,
our Grace gets.

So give in big lad, come on.

- Sammy.

Sammy.

It's thingie.

- Who?

- Zack what's his
face, "Goliath Games."

- Sorry.

- So, wait, Grace was
telling the truth all along?

- Seems so, how's my hair,
is it standing on me?

Right.

Chest out, tummy in.

Thank you for coming.

Hello, hello, welcome.

Um, Zack, is it.

Thank you terribly
kindly for coming.

- Well, it's Josh.

Zack is, was my
character's name.

- Silly of me, I'm
terribly sorry.

I should have known what with me

also being in show business.

- It happens all the time.

- Right.

Enjoy.

I wish we had done
that extra practice.

(upbeat piano music)

(phone buzzing)

(upbeat piano music)

(upbeat orchestral music)

(audience applauding)

- Josh, here's Grace now.

- It doesn't matter if
someone is different.

- We're all equal.

- I wish we'd all be
friends and dance together.

(audience applauding)

- He likes it.

He likes it.

- What would he
know about dancing?

- I could give
him a few lessons.

- High fives.

Yes, well done.

(Marcus knocking)

- Marcus?

- Well, well, well.

I've seen it all now.

- Marcus, I didn't know
you were gonna come.

Give me two minutes,
I'll get the boys.

- Don't bother.

I can see that you're busy.

- No, it's not
what it looks like.

Lily brought him in.

- Oh, did you
think that I cared?

Listen, the Marcus
train left town

a long time ago and
you weren't on it.

And as if a Hollywood soggy,

a washed up Hollywood star

would look at somebody like you.

- Marcus, Marcus, the
boys need their dad.

- Why do you let him
talk to you like that?

- [Mel] Why don't you just
mind your own business?

- That was awkward.

Mel and Marcus?

I had no idea.

- He has a lot to answer for.

He wasn't a bit good to her.

- Why are you so good to me?

- I was hungry and you
gave me something to eat,

I was thirsty and you gave
me something to drink.

- That from a movie?

- More a book.

- Give me back my ring.

- What ring?

- Give me back my ring.

- What, this ring?

You...

You think this is funny, huh,

give me back my ring.

- Get it, get it, come on.

- Give me back my ring.

Give me back my-
- Come get it.

- You little punk,
give me back my ring.

You think this is funny?

- Right, that's
it, that's enough.

Billy Robert Davidson, give
the man back his ring now.

And you two.

- What's going on boys?

- What?

What?

Some mother you.

You just stand there and look on

while someone else
looks after your kids.

I mean, here's the thing.

They're your kids.

You know, maybe if you'd
stop popping pills,

you'd be more of a mom.

I mean, why'd you have them

if you weren't even
gonna look after them.

(door slams)

- Don't worry, love.

I'll sort it.

(gentle music)

- Look if you've
come to say to me

what a bad man I
am, I know already.

Why do you look after them all?

- It's in giving
we are truly happy.

What's the matter?

- That's my mom.

That's me as a baby.

She's supposed to be from
around here somewhere.

- She was from around here?

- Yeah.

My dad was a soldier here

and when I came around,
she didn't want me, so,

he left the Army,
he went to the US,

he took me with him.

You know it was right
before he passed away

he gave me this.

It's my great-great
grandmother's ring.

It was passed on to my mom

and she gave it to my dad

to give to me when
the time was right.

So I've been working
to find her ever since.

Her name was Ruby.

Ruby Jenkins.

Named after some singer.

- That'd be Ruby Murray.

She was best there ever was.

Ruby Jenkins.

Ruby Jenkins.

Oh.

Oh, Josh.

- What?

- Your mum passed
away a few years ago.

- Well, I really don't care.

She probably
wouldn't have wanted

to see me anyway.

You know all this time she
never once made contact.

She must have really hated me.

- Oh, look.

She would have had no choice.

In those days you didn't,

well, especially if it
wasn't one of your own.

But I know that she
would have thought

about you every day.

- No, you don't.

How could you, love.

- Right, that's it.

You are not going
back to America

to an empty flat.

What you need is some
good north coast air.

(gentle music)

(upbeat music)

Get the tag and open
the door, okay, love.

Right, gather this stuff in.

Here we go.

Everybody in.

You all right, Josh?

- Josh, welcome to my caravan.

- It's our auntie's caravan.

- And here's the
toilet, it's cool.

- Yeah, but you have to
flush it twice, though,

you know, when you do a number-

- Billy Robert.

Let Grace show him.

I bet you've never seen
nothing this fancy before.

- No, never.

- It's the best place ever.

- It is, you know.

- Hey, Josh, come here.

Now that is where
you're sleeping, mate.

- Okay.

- Yay!

- [Josh] So , what happened
between you and Marcus?

- We were really
happy at the start.

We had the boys and
then we just grew apart.

Then I started
seeing somebody else.

This country singer
from over Hampton.

He was only here for a week

and then I was expecting Grace.

You know, he was good.

He was really good.

- Evidently.

- No, I mean a good singer.

I meant a good singer.

- Yeah.

So Grace isn't Marcus'.

- No, and he went crazy.

I mean, crazy.

Like things were
not good between us,

but it was my fault.

You know we were still married

and on top of that
he's got this thing

that whenever he gets
hurt he can't cope,

like an anger
problem or something.

And then whenever we split up,

I lost my job and I
lost my confidence.

I just sort of went into myself.

And so did Kanye and he
hasn't really spoken since.

I know Billy Robert seems find

on the outside, but
I know he'd like

to see more of his daddy.

And same with Grace.

We have to keep an
eye on her, too.

She doesn't do too much.

Up here it's like all your
worries just disappear.

- So that's what all those
pills are, anti-depressants?

- Yep.

- Sometimes it's
like you're under

a heavy, dark, damp blanket.

You know what you should do,

but you just can't do it.

- I'm so sorry.

You know, I thought
that you were-

- Oh, it's okay.

I thought you were
a stuck up TV star

who thought he was somebody.

- Right.

- I shoulda know.

Mommy has a way
of seeing through

to people's hearts.

- Yeah, and she's
quite some lady.

- And Grace just adores you.

She has a sixth sense.

Josh.

Are you really here
to make a film or

is it a complicated
plan to find your mom?

- Both I guess.

- Mm.

- Hey.

You believe that
people come into-

- Your life for a reason?

(soulful music)

- Come on, Josh.

- I'm coming to get you guys.

- Josh, where are you?

(gentle music)

- Have you hard the news?

- Colin Farrell wants to walk

the red carpet with me?

- Not quite.

But it is juicy.
- What is?

- You know the
American, Josh Jenkins?

- Yes.

- His mum's from here.

He was born here

and then was taken to America
to live with his daddy.

- Really, how do you know?

- It's all over the internet.

Woman called Ruby Jenkins.

She's dead now, but like,
can you believe that?

- Can I have a look?

- Mm?

- Of course I can't
wait to get back.

What are you crazy? I gotta
take you out for the dinner

in Venice Beach I've
been promising you.

I gotta go, buy.

Hey, Mel.

So I'm gonna be outta
here tomorrow for sure.

- Mm.

- I'll miss you.

- I've been taken
for a fool before,

so don't worry about it.

- Look, that was just a little-

- I don't wanna know.

I mean, what was I thinking?

As if me and you
could ever, like-

- Mel, I don't wanna hurt you.

Look, I know what I'm like

and I'm not good enough for you.

- Oh, please.

- No, really, I'm
not a good guy.

- La, la, la, la, la, la, la.

Would you like a cup of tea?

- Yeah.

You want a cup of tea.

La, la.

- Grace?

Grace?

Help!

- Grace.

Grace.

Gracie. What happened?
- I don't know what happened.

- Grace.
- She was just singing and-

- Grace. Get the
door, get the door.

- What happened?

What happened?

- I don't know, she
just passed out.

Get in the car.

- Grace, are you okay?

- We'll get the boys, okay.

- [Mel] Grace?

- Is she all right?

- [Mel] No, What happened?

- I don't understand
it, I just felt it-

♪ It will not be all night

♪ Till you slip away

- Right, I'll be there,
I'll be there right away.

Bye-bye.

Marcus, Marcus,
Grace isn't well.

I know that you don't care,

but I am gonna have to go.

- Again?

I'm sure it's no more serious
than it was the last time.

- Oh, but she's in the hospital.

- My hands are tied,
Lily, I'm sorry.

- Oh, you are not being fair.

- I'm not being fair?

Do you think I don't
know how many times

you've been looking after her

when you should have
been here working?

I'm gonna have to put
my foot down, Lily.

- Do you know, you
can't spend your life

being horrible to people

just because it
makes you feel great.

You think that you
are above everybody.

Well, I've news for
you, you're not.

And as for our boys,

I'm glad they have hardly
anything to do with you

because I wouldn't
one drop of your nits

near them so I wouldn't.

And as for our
Grace, she needs me.

And wild horses, let alone,

some rejumped up nobody
is gonna stop me.

- Lily!

I'm being unreasonable.

Lily, if you leave like this.

You're fired.

- Thank you.

That is the best news
I have had all year

and you take your
job and stick it.

(whimsical music)

- Um, are you little
Grace's mother?

- Yeah.

- There's no easy
way to say this.

We believe she has a very
serious heart condition.

She needs a very
specific procedure,

but unfortunately, we don't have

the facilities in
northern Ireland to do it.

- Surely, there's
something you can do

for the wee love.

- Well, I have put a call in

to a hospital in London

that does this procedure,

but we need to move very fast

if there is to be any
chance of success.

There is another problem.

The costs are, I would estimate

in the region of 60,000 pounds.

- 60,000 pounds, are you sure?

- Now if Grace was to go,

she has to go as
soon as possible.

I mean, in the next few days.

I just want to assure you

we will do everything we can.

- Can I go into her now, please.

- Of course.

- Josh, would you
take the boys home?

- Sure.

- We're gonna get this money.

- Ay, sure, I'll
sell my Ferrari.

- Oh, shut your pie
hole, will you Markie.

I'm serious.

We need to pull together.

We can get everybody
in the area.

- Maybe we should be careful

about getting their
hopes up, you know.

It sounds kind of impossible
to raise that amount of money

in a few days.

- Last thing I wanna do
is get their hopes up.

Useless even trying.

- Excuse me.

Please, can we try.

I've got 43 pounds
in my savings jar.

Billy Robert has even more.

I don't want our
wee Grace to die.

Please.

- You're some wee
lad, sweetheart.

- We're gonna raise this
money if it kills me.

- Okay, so where do we start.

Like how do you get
that money this quickly?

Uh, uh, what we could do,

a sponsored kiss-a-thon?

- All right, they could
pay to not kiss you.

What we could do is
a sponsored diet.

- Oh, I'm not sure.

It's not as if I have that
much to lose, you know?

What?

That's bloat.

Water retention.

- Oh, well, you better call Noah

if it ever bursts.

- Maybe Joanie could
do a dance-a-thon.

Yeah, they do that kind of thing
in the states all the time.

It makes a lot of money.

- Yes, I love dancing.

- Josh, darling,
would you ask Joanie?

She'd do anything for you.

For wee Grace.

- Yeah.

- [Together] To Grace.

- In other news, an
appeal has been launched

to raise money for Belfast
girl, Grace Davidson.

Fundraising is taking
place across the country

in what has been dubbed

the Amazing Grace Campaign.

Efforts are building towards

the campaign's showpiece finale,

a massive dance-a-thon
to be held this Friday.

- Ladies and gentlemen,
boys and girls.

Welcome to the Amazing
Grace Dance-a-Thon.

Now every pound you raise

is gonna help save our Grace.

Cue music.

Let's dance for Grace.

(audience applauding)

(upbeat big band music)

- I'm standing here in
the heart of Belfast

where excitement and
urgency are in the area.

Local people from
across northern Ireland

are rushing to the aid of

a five-year-old
girl called Grace.

Grace is desperately in need

of costly life saving treatment

and time is of the essence.

So let's get our
dancing shoes on

and see what's going on.

(hip hop music)

- [Mel] You wanna play a game.

- [Grace] Yes.

- Knock, knock,
knock on the door.

Take me somewhere I've
never been before.

- Heaven.

- Okay.

Close your eyes.

What do you see?

- White clouds and
white princesses.

- What else?

- There's a giant seashell.

There's even a
teddy bear's picnic.

There's no fuzzy tricks to like

but Grandma Geri's there.

- Okay, that'll do.

Do you want a sip of water?

- Yes, thank you.

(upbeat music)

(audience applauding)

(grand orchestral music)

- There you go.

- Sammy, S-A-M-M-Y.

- S-A-M-M-Y, okay.

There you go, man.

(Middle Eastern music)

- Whoo!

(Middle Eastern music)

("Dance of the
Sugar Plum Fairy")

- Grace is getting weaker.

Um, I think I'm gonna have

to transfer her
to intensive care.

Is there any news?

- Well, everybody's
doing their best.

- Thanks, thanks for
your support, yeah.

Oh, my goodness.

Okay.

- You're gorgeous.

(Josh laughs)

Do you think I'm pretty?

- Yeah, okay, here we go.

- Thank you.

- Okay.

(Markie laughing)

- It is so inspiring

to see so many people
from across the city

and beyond and from all walks
of life pulling together.

60,000 pounds needs to be raised

in just a few days, so
please, please donate

what you can now.

(phone beeping)

Billy Robert,
Billy Robert, look.

- Tomorrow?

- Yeah.

- The Vasser's coming to match.

- That's sick.

(audience applauding)

(dancers tapping)

- [Doctor] Everybody in
London is still on standby,

but we are running out of time.

(audience cheering)

- Are you sure
about this, Kanye?

- Yes, Nanny.

We'll be fine.

- What was this
that was on again?

- It was on a tweet.

- A what?

- Come on.

- [Announcer] Please
welcome your teams,

Northern Ireland
and New Zealand.

- Kanye.

Kanye, over here mate.

- Mel, Mel.

Come look at this.

- Come on Kanye!

- Kanye!

- [Announcer] Are
you Kanye Davidson?

- [Kanye] Yes.
- How does it feel to be

a mascot for the Northern
Ireland football team tonight?

- It's just amazing,
like a dream.

- [Announcer] And you're here

for another reason
as well, aren't you?

- Yeah, we need to raise
money for my sister, Grace.

She needs an operation
done in London.

- Well, can I tell you

all the Northern Ireland
fans and the players,

we've all pulled together

and I can tell you tonight

that we have raised
36,000 pounds.

(audience cheering)

- Wow.
- Come on, Kanye.

No wonder you love this city.

- But you know what,

it's not just everybody here
at Windsor Park tonight.

There's a few other people

who are supporting you
and supporting Grace.

They're very special
and they're giving

you a special mention.

Take a look at this.

- From all of here
from Northern Ireland,

we're kindhearted souls,

we're the best people.

Get behind little Grace.

Help her, help her
for her operation

and do us all proud.

- This is a good luck
message little Grace.

It sounds like the whole
country's behind her

and I know she's
gonna win this fate

and we'll all be there
to cheer her one.

Good luck to you.

- Hi, Grace, it's
Tommy Bowe here.

I've believe you've got a bit

of a battle on your hands,

but we're all 100% behind you

and we know we're gonna
see you at the other side.

- Best of luck.

- Grace, we're all
cheering you on.

We're all cheering
for you, Grace.

- Grace, we're right
behind you and beside you.

Together we can do this.

(audience cheering)

- Kanye, have you
anything else to say?

- Just thanks to everyone

and thanks to

the Northern Ireland
football team for everything.

- Kanye, well
done, and good luck

and let's get on with the game.

- Thank you.

(audience cheering)

- Great.

So, what have we got?

- Thanks for Kanye's
football match,

we raised 36,000 pounds.

- We got 19,560 from
the dance-a-thon

and from the website.

- The collection
box has made 560.

- And 165 from the
autographs and the T-shirts.

- That totals 56,285.

- How much are we short?

- 3,715 pounds.

- Suzie, what would we
get for the fish tank?

- Oh, let me see, nothing.

- But those fish
cost us a fortune

and I'd sell Sonny and
Cher for that wee girl,

I really would.

- Oh, you're like me.

- How much for that?

- Where did you get that?

- I don't matter, it's legal.

- I have to ring my...

- Hello?

- [Lily] Hello, love.

- Hey, Mum.

- We've got it.

- We got it.

- All of it.

- All of it, are you sure?

- Yes.

- Oh, my gosh, Mommy,
that's amazing.

- You sold your ruby
ring, didn't you?

- Gladly.

It's in giving we
are truly happy.

Now I know what you mean.

- Will it be all right?

- All we have to
do is have faith.

Grace will do the rest.

- Josh, would you
be able to look

after the boys just while
we take Grace to London?

I don't want too
much disruption.

But now if you're flying
out or rather not,

that's perfectly all right.

- What, me mind the boys?

- Yes, please.

- Of course.

It's no problem.

No problem at all.

- I love you.

- Hello, Grace.

- Hello.

- We'll take it from here.

She's in good hands,
I promise you.

(gentle suspenseful music)

Well, I am happy to say

the operation has
been as successful

as we could have hoped for.
- Thank God.

- That being said, we still need

to be a little cautious
until she wakes, of course.

But everything's
going to plan so far.

- Can we be with her
whenever she wakes up?

- Oh, yes, that would
be a good thing.

Before she went under,

she gave me this.

She said I could use
it if I needed to,

but it's still got a
little magic left in it.

- Thank you, thank you.

- Could I come in

- Yeah, sure, come on in.

Can I get you anything?

- No, no, thank you.

- Just waiting on a call from LA

on the new funding for my film.

- I've heard about your film.

I was hoping maybe you could get

me a love scene
with Colin Farrell.

(Josh laughs)

No, okay.

Um, it's called City
of Terror, is it?

- Trouble.

But no, I've actually
changed the name

of the film, it's now
called "City of Soul."

- Well, that is a
fantastic title.

Better.

- I know a lot of people
don't believe in me,

but I will make this movie.

I want the world to know
about this crazy place.

I don't wanna sound cheesy,

but I feel like the
people of Belfast

have a lot of love within them

and I really wanna capture that.

- Josh, I have
something I'd like

to get off my chest.

- Look, I'm sorry if I've
given you the wrong vibe.

I'm not interested.

As a matter of fact,

I'm kind of really into
someone else right now.

- Do you think I fancy you?

- No?

- No, no, goodness, no.

I think I might (exhales).

Josh, I'm your sister.

Your half sister.

Ruby Jenkins was my mother.

Nobody knows this
because I grew up

in a different area
of Belfast, but

Josh I am certain
you are my brother.

- You're my sister?

- Brother.

- That was amazing.

- It was.

I'll see you soon?

- Yeah.

- Everything all right, Josh.

- Yeah, everything's
more than okay.

- Well, it doesn't come
up that side, does it?

- Look what the cat dragged in.

- I've come to
settle what I owe.

- Count it, Lucy.

- Like I said, I'm here
to settle what I owe you

and ask you to please
give Lily her job back.

- Excuse me?

Have you not done enough
charity work for that family?

- That family is worth
a hundred of you.

As for Lily, she's the
most inspirational woman

I've ever met in my life

and she needs this
job to, guess what,

pay for your kids.

- You've paid your bill

so you can go.

- You know, Marcus, you
have absolutely no heart.

- Because I don't believe
in giving handouts.

- Except you do,
though, don't you?

I saw you put the money in
the collection box for Grace.

- That was different.

- Marcus, don't live
your life like I did.

Afraid of giving out love

in case you get
hurt or rejected.

- Okay, spare me
the sentimental.

- Listen, jackass.

You have two beautiful
boys out there

who need their dad.

Two boys who almost lost
their little sister.

And they love you.

I don't know why,

but they do.

- Lucy.

Give Lily a call there.

See if she wants to
do a shift on Tuesday.

- Happier times here in Belfast,

as little Grace
Davidson returns home

after a successful
operation in London.

Thanks to the generosity

of the people of
Northern Ireland,

Grace received her
life-saving treatment

and the family have been
giving their reaction.

- We just want to
say thank you so much

to everybody who's
contributed money

to Amazing Grace campaign.

The support's been overwhelming

and we're so, so grateful.

Grace, do you wanna
say something?

- Thank you.

Josh?

- Yes.

- I love you.

- I love you, too.

- Will you come back?

- I sure will.

- Pinky promise.

- Of course.

- All right, guys,
I'm outta here.

- Bye Josh.

- See you later.

Mel, keep singing.

I'll be back.

- Okay, take care.

- Yeah.

Lily, what can I say?

- There's a wee sandwich
you for the journey.

I hope you like pickle.

- You're quite a lady.

- You're quite a fella.

- All right, guys.

Thank you for everything.

(bright music)

- Hello, and welcome
o Sunny Belfast.

Well, not gonna let a little bit

of rain dampen our spirits.

This is the hottest event

of the year.

This is the world premier
of "City of Soul."

And the fans are out
in force to catch

a glimpse of some of the movers

and shakers behind the film.

Oh, and first on the red carpet

is Joanie Clark, who
a year ago remarkably

discovered that she is
Josh Jenkins' half sister.

She's here tonight with
her fiance, Sammy Taylor,

composer of "City of Soul."

Next, there's Marcus Dittynip

with his boys Billy
Robert and Kanye,

who were so instrumental during

last year's Amazing
Grace campaign.

Dittynip's great new performance

as Captain Loveheart
has had critics

and fans buzzing.

And here are two big
influences on the movie,

close friends of
Josh Jenkins himself.

They're said to
be the inspiration

behind the ground
breaking dance finale.

Which brings me to the
reason we're all here.

"City of Soul."

The film to break box office
records around the world

is the passion project
of Josh Jenkins

and his production
company, Goliath Films.

I think I've
actually just spotted

the main man himself,
Josh Jenkins.

You guys at home will know Josh

as child star Zack Goliath,

but he's all grown up now

and boy does he look fantastic.

Not only does he
appear in this film,

but he's also
written it himself.

Now, I'm gonna try and
get a word with him.

This is the biggest
night of his career

and I'm gonna Josh,
Josh, congratulations.

You must be so proud.

- Yes, I am so proud right now.

You know, it's actually,
it's really surreal

to be standing here
right now for sure.

- Let's talk about
the inspiration

for this movie.

- I've been through a lot
of things in my life, right,

so I just draw from
these experiences

and from that I just,

you know, what am I saying? I
mean, these guys, these guys

have been the entire
inspiration for this film.

Oh, and this little
lady right here.

- What's your name?

- Grace.

- So we've got
Grace and Goliath.

Sounds like a good title
for your next movie.

- Yeah, it sure would.

That sounds really good.

I'll have to get back
to you for that one.

- Enjoy your night.
- Okay.
