Hi.
Hi.
Er, are you ready to order or I think we might need a minute.
Maybe a little bit longer.
No problem.
Wazzup?? Remember that? WAZZUP?? I've just been fired.
Another classic - hubba hubba.
That's what you say when you see a fittie.
I know what it means, numbnut.
You're not listening, I said I've just been sacked.
But my favourite's got to be bow chicka wow wow! Jimmy! What happened? I don't want to talk about it.
Just don't tell mam.
She'll go ballistic.
Me lips are sealed.
Promise? Absolutely.
Hey.
Heya.
How's me boys? Mam, it's awful.
Leo's been fired! He's lost his job! Y'what?! He said Leo's lost his job.
Yes, I heard what he said, Tony.
He's kidding! Honestly, what's he like? What are you like? Like Forrest Gump, but not as fast.
Don't even joke about things like that.
You know I'm a nervous wreck as it is! So how was your day? Busy.
Oo Er Went to ASDA.

I've been sacked.
You have got to be kidding me.
Why do these things always happen to me? Er, mam Shut up, Leo.
God, it's me, Pam.
I just want to ask you one thing, end it now.
Leo thought you'd overreact.
I knew you wouldn't.
What was it this time? They questioned me honesty.
Your honesty? You've been thieving again.
He's been thieving again, Tony.
Jesus wept.
It's the school tuck shop all over again.
Who can forget Curly Wurly-gate? Did Leo steal it or was he framed? Shut up you.
I haven't stolen anything.
In fact, if anything they said I was too honest.
Too honest? How can somebody be too honest? Well, they asked us if I really wanted to be there and I said, "No.
" What kind of an idiot would do that? I'd do it.
Leo, you'll soon get another job.
You'll be fine.
Oh, he will, will he? Absolutely! He's a good kid.
He'll find something.
So you'll give him a job at your place then? No.
No, he's too weak for manual labour.
You've got no social skills and you eat with your mouth open.
No offence, son.
Well, I am slightly offended.
Leo, he said 'no offence'.
You see? Even your own dad won't give you a job.
I've just about had enough of this, Leo.
You've got me worried sick.
I have? What about James? He's not worked a day in his life! Yes, but that's James.
I wrote him off years ago.
I know exactly what I'm getting with James and that's nowt! No offence, James.

If you must know, it's Leo.
He's gay.
I knew he was.
Too soft spoken to be straight, gentle features and the cheekbones.
He's lost his job.
For being gay? He's not gay, Anji.
He's just lost his job again.
I don't know if I can take any more.
Now that's him and James.
Pam, Pam, Pam Come here, darlin'.
Aw, there's no point getting upset.
And d'you know why? Why? Cos there's a customer just come in.
I'm going through the back for a lie down.
Morning.
You can thank me later.
What's that? It's a game for you and Judy to play.
It's not a playdate, Jimmy.
We're not eight years old.
No, bro, you need all the help you can get.
No, I don't.
This is me on a date Gangsta.
This is you on a date "It's the end of the world.
" That's not me.
Not even close.
March 8th, 2013.
You and me go on a double date.
Me "Let's all go chill at Nando's.
"S'all good.
" You "Not many people know, but America has 46 states and not 50.
" That's true.
But we weren't dating two dusty librarians from Oxford, we were dating two fitties.
Yeah, well, it's called conversation.
Call it whatever you like, but you came home straight away and I came home two nights later.
OK, give us the game.
How's my darlin'? Aw, fine, thanks.
Getting ready for a quiet night in? What does it look like? Hm, let's see what the evidence suggests.
Hm You're wearing Opium.
You only wear that when you're going somewhere special.
OK, mum, you got me.
I'm going on a date.
Now, you say you're staying in, but your lovely new top is hanging here Look, I'm going on a date.
That leaves me with only one conclusion - you're going on a date! So who's the lucky man? His name's Leo.
Leo Macdonald.
Excellent.
But there's a bit of an age gap.
Age gap be damned! Que sera sera, I say.
He's 26.
Bloody hell! Hiya! Hiya, Jackie! We're up here! Oh, I love first dates.
So much excitement, expectation, and sometimes, just sometimes, colossal disappointment.
Oh, but I bet you and young Leo have a lovely time.
Mum, please don't call him 'Young Leo'.
I am bloody knackered! What you been doin'? I've been walking.
And? That's it.
Your sister's got some big news.
He's just so sweet.
I'm just going to come right out with it and tell him everything.
Wait till you hear my big news.
She's got herself a date.
Judy's had her operation, I'm going to have mine.
Not you too, Jackie! Oh, it's gender bender central in here, honestly! No! I'm going to Hungary.
I'm going to have a gastric balloon fitted.
Oh, be careful, love.
Women get kidnapped in that kind of country.
One moment, you're waiting for a taxi, and the next, you're being exchanged for a camel.
God, I've got palpitations.
Do you want a beta-blocker? I think I'd rather have a cyanide pill.
Aw, here he is! Just in time.
What for? Have a seat.
Right, I'm going to read a few extracts from my diary.
Oh "Yesterday was a very bad day.
"Leo got fired again.
" Thank you.
"Today has gone from bad to ridiculous.
"I've just seen a photo of Leo's girlfriend.
" Wha?! You took her photo? Shhh "Dear Diary, I think I'm going to be sick.
"She's nearly my age.
" "Dear Diary, someone's been eating my Chipsticks.
"I don't know who, but I've got me suspicions.
" It wasn't me.
Hm? It'll be that thieving Leo.
Eh?! It wasn't me.
I don't even like Nobody cares about Chipsticks! OK? Not one person.
Nobody.
Oh! I've highlighted and underlined this bit.
"Why is Leo going out with a much older woman? "Is it A, because it's some kind of kinky experiment? "Or is it B, because he wants to give his own mother a heart attack?" Can I say something? I wish you would.
You see an older woman.
I see a teacher.
Someone to educate Leo in the finer things.
Love.
Life.
Sex.
Yeah! I think mam's in shock.
I can't believe you just said that.
Take it back.
Do I have to? Yes.
I take it back.
Mam, just for once, can you try and see the positives? What positives, Leo? Please, give me one positive.
Well .
.
she's .
.
only a few years older.
I've got a positive! Don't you dare mention sex again.
You can go to the chiropodist together.
Good one.
Well it looks like I've got quite a lot to look forward to, Leo, so thank you.
Thank you very much.
Hi.
Hi.
Er, you look lovely.
Thank you.
Oh, thank you.
My pleasure.
So how are you? I'm fine.
Good, good, good.
Oh! Er let me show you something.
My brother made this, so if you hate it blame him.
Erm, it's called The Dial of Truth.
As you can see, the card is divided into 3 sections - personal stuff, interesting titbits and, um .
.
favourite sexual positions.
Here's what you do - you spin the arrow, if it points to 'personal stuff', you reveal something of that nature.
So you could say something like Leo, I was born with a penis.
Exactly.
Exactly! But it has to be true.
OK.
Ladies first.
OK.
'Personal stuff'.
Leo I'm a transsexual.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God Don't look now, but isn't that Gary Beadle from Geordie Shore? What? I It could be his twin.
Sorry.
I'm sorry.
You were saying something.
Look, Leo .
.
there's something that I need to tell you.
I could tell you later or I could tell you now and I'd rather tell you now.
I was born with a penis.
Hi.
Hi.
Er, are you ready to order I think we might need a minute.
Maybe a little bit longer.
No problem.
Feel free to ask me anything.
Just nothing too personal.
So .
.
you Yes? You were You were born in the wrong body? Yes.
Yes, that's right That's Well, that's exactly right.
I see.

So what was that like to be? It was like being born in prison.
Never having a release date.
Right.
So .
.

Let's talk while we eat, if that's OK? Yeah.
So, what do you fancy? I hope Judy's OK.
She'll be fine.
You really think so? No.

This is me on a date Gangsta.
This is you on a date "It's the end of the world.
" That's not me.
Not even close.
March 8th, 2013.
You and me go on a double date.
Me "Let's all go chill at Nando's.
"S'all good.
" You "Not many people know, but America has 46 states and not 50.
" That's true.
But we weren't dating two dusty librarians from Oxford, we were dating two fitties.
Yeah, well, it's called conversation.
Call it whatever you like, but you came home straight away and I came home two nights later.
OK, give us the game.
How's my darlin'? Aw, fine, thanks.
Getting ready for a quiet night in? What does it look like? Hm, let's see what the evidence suggests.
Hm You're wearing Opium.
You only wear that when you're going somewhere special.
OK, mum, you got me.
I'm going on a date.
Now, you say you're staying in, but your lovely new top is hanging here Look, I'm going on a date.
That leaves me with only one conclusion - you're going on a date! So who's the lucky man? His name's Leo.
Leo Macdonald.
Excellent.
But there's a bit of an age gap.
Age gap be damned! Que sera sera, I say.
He's 26.
Bloody hell! Hiya! Hiya, Jackie! We're up here! Oh, I love first dates.
So much excitement, expectation, and sometimes, just sometimes, colossal disappointment.
Oh, but I bet you and young Leo have a lovely time.
Mum, please don't call him 'Young Leo'.
I am bloody knackered! What you been doin'? I've been walking.
And? That's it.
Your sister's got some big news.
He's just so sweet.
I'm just going to come right out with it and tell him everything.
Wait till you hear my big news.
She's got herself a date.
Judy's had her operation, I'm going to have mine.
Not you too, Jackie! Oh, it's gender bender central in here, honestly! No! I'm going to Hungary.
I'm going to have a gastric balloon fitted.
Oh, be careful, love.
Women get kidnapped in that kind of country.
One moment, you're waiting for a taxi, and the next, you're being exchanged for a camel.
God, I've got palpitations.
Do you want a beta-blocker? I think I'd rather have a cyanide pill.
Aw, here he is! Just in time.
What for? Have a seat.
Right, I'm going to read a few extracts from my diary.
Oh "Yesterday was a very bad day.
"Leo got fired again.
" Thank you.
"Today has gone from bad to ridiculous.
"I've just seen a photo of Leo's girlfriend.
" Wha?! You took her photo? Shhh "Dear Diary, I think I'm going to be sick.
"She's nearly my age.
" "Dear Diary, someone's been eating my Chipsticks.
"I don't know who, but I've got me suspicions.
" It wasn't me.
Hm? It'll be that thieving Leo.
Eh?! It wasn't me.
I don't even like Nobody cares about Chipsticks! OK? Not one person.
Nobody.
Oh! I've highlighted and underlined this bit.
"Why is Leo going out with a much older woman? "Is it A, because it's some kind of kinky experiment? "Or is it B, because he wants to give his own mother a heart attack?" Can I say something? I wish you would.
You see an older woman.
I see a teacher.
Someone to educate Leo in the finer things.
Love.
Life.
Sex.
Yeah! I think mam's in shock.
I can't believe you just said that.
Take it back.
Do I have to? Yes.
I take it back.
Mam, just for once, can you try and see the positives? What positives, Leo? Please, give me one positive.
Well .
.
she's .
.
only a few years older.
I've got a positive! Don't you dare mention sex again.
You can go to the chiropodist together.
Good one.
Well it looks like I've got quite a lot to look forward to, Leo, so thank you.
Thank you very much.

So how are you? I'm fine.
Good, good, good.
Oh! Er let me show you something.
My brother made this, so if you hate it blame him.
Erm, it's called The Dial of Truth.
As you can see, the card is divided into 3 sections - personal stuff, interesting titbits and, um .
.
favourite sexual positions.
Here's what you do - you spin the arrow, if it points to 'personal stuff', you reveal something of that nature.
So you could say something like Leo, I was born with a penis.
Exactly.
Exactly! But it has to be true.
OK.
Ladies first.
OK.
'Personal stuff'.
Leo I'm a transsexual.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God Don't look now, but isn't that Gary Beadle from Geordie Shore? What? I It could be his twin.
Sorry.
I'm sorry.
You were saying something.
Look, Leo .
.

I could tell you later or I could tell you now and I'd rather tell you now.
I was born with a penis.
Hi.

Er, are you ready to order I think we might need a minute.
Maybe a little bit longer.
No problem.

Just nothing too personal.
So .
.

Yes, that's right That's Well, that's exactly right.

Never having a release date.
Right.
So .
.

Let's talk while we eat, if that's OK? Yeah.
So, what do you fancy? I hope Judy's OK.
She'll be fine.

Remember Ed? Was he the one who faked the emergency phone call and left? No, that were Wayne.
Ed were the one that chatted you up.
Oh, yeah.
Now, I liked him.
You talk proper posh, so I'm guessing you're not from round here.
Well, I'm not from Newcastle, no.

But I'm a northern girl.
Really? You don't sound northern.
I know, but when I transitioned I knew that I wanted to leave as much of the old me behind as possible.
Really? Yeah, so goodbye, Johnny Vegas.
