Have a look around.
It doesn't seem to have a hod.
Or was it a hog? With the pots.
A hob? Ooh, careful. Excuse me, excuse me.
Go, go, go, go. OK.
I think this might be the hob.
Yeah, that's the hob.
So it cooks as well?
Has it got Netflix on it or whatever?
No. It just cooks.
That's enough chargements to
charge your phone, your telly,
your kettle, all at the same time,
giving them equal chargements.
Do you mind if I just show myself around?
No, you need me to do it.
That's the cupboard.

It's like, oh, to bed or not to bed?
Who said that? All right. Yeah.
You've got so much paper on you. Oh.

It's funny you being at the back now.
Cos you can be naughty, innit.
Swearing and whispering. Yeah.
HE CHUCKLES
Bollocks, bollocks, bollocks,
to the whole lot of you.
What were you listening to?
Ooh, well just a little track from a little,
er
..from you. It's so refreshing
to hear women singing, for once.
Me and Katia do want to tell our story,
you know,
the dramas and pains we're
living every day and night.
Wait, who's done a track?
Me and Katia done a song on her phone.
We're actually really confident with it.
Did you get my e-mail?
HE LAUGHS No.
What is it? A slow jam, yeah?
It's women's R&B, I think.
What is that?
Does Tomoko like drama music,
cos maybe she could share
it with her Japan friends?
Ah, yeah.
Oh, God, she's obsessed with drama music.
# Oh, my, God, there's a guard in the club

but, very quickly,
did you love the track I sent?
Obviously. It's boofting, oh,
my Have I not said that yet?
Oi, listen to the track I sent you.
It is dead.
I love you.
Why are you at the back?
Oh. What, did Julian put you here?
It's like I've been deported.
HE CHUCKLES
Obviously, not really.
Real deportation is hell.
Still, though,
I love how he's mimbling around the office
like he's better than life's bread.
Do you know what I mean?
Like, changing everything.
I'll change hishead.
Yeah.
That'sthat's very good, that's dark.
Do you we should do something to him.
Oi, would you prank him?
What would you do?
II'd put a dusty old mint in his pocket.
Or something like that. Galileo.
I'll tell you what I'd do.
I'd go up to him and I'd go,
"Julian, Julian, don't worry,
"there isn't any gunge in here."
But then I would gunge
him with gunge on him.
Yes. You talking about gunging,
what, from kids' TV?
Where are you going to get gunge?
Ah, it's just gunge, innit?
You don't have any gunge, bruv.
I do have gunge.

It wasn't even a mouse in the end, so I just
had all the cheese off the traps, then, didn't I?
It's not good for me,
I'm phlegming like a sicko today.
Why does Carole look like a bath?
Right, you horrible lot,

The Fs are for fucking, I love that.
It's like a viral video Don't gather,

Obviously I want that!
I've been trying to have a wife for ages.
It's true, he has.
OK, tell me.
I want to have a son who is our angel,
and I want to teach him how toclap.
And I want to take him to fancy dress,

And I want to give him the family business.
And I want to secretly watch
him from round the corner,
while he celebrates about it.
This is lovely things.
But you get them how I got my lovely things.

Sophie doesn't do anything on her own.
I am. I'm doing music on my own. With Katia.

Very fat track.

HE SPEAKS GREEK
Oh, you're making me laugh.
Never tickled me out the bloody room.
It's my name lots.
It's actually really nice.
Thank you, Steven.
Did you like Julian's video?
I thought it was a load of old croft.
I mean, yeah, it wasyeah, it was amazing,
but my dad's licking his video all day,
loving it with his licks.
Oh, no, no, no. It is a video that is weak.
Yeah. It's mainstream.
And it is croft, I think,
yeah, no doubt in my mind.
You know what I mean, like, film me, innit,
I'll do like a bloody Hollywood.
Six times better than Julian done it.
Sorry, Stath, I love hanging in the
car with you. Me, too. Chilling out.
Throwing out. But I actually have
a viewing and the guy's waiting.
What, you want to film the viewing?
Ah, no, just Your viewing?
..just doing it because I haven't
had a viewing in a long time.
Butwait, wait, we could
You could film it and then
I could do the tour around.
And then we could music with it, you
know what I mean? Where they go like that?
HE SINGS RANDOMLY
# Ra, ra, ta, ta, ta. #
That sort of thing.
I've just got to ask the guy I'm showing,
Mick, to see if
I'll ask Mick, I'll ask him. Yep. Yeah.
Mick, do you want to be a movie star man?
Sorry, how am I not in the video?
You didn't even point to any of the bits.
I would have pointed at all the bits.
Are you ill? You look mad. No.
No, I'm buzzing. I'm hopping.
Don't say words with Hs near my face.
I don't want to get sick.
Oh, my God, I've played it to everyone.
My sisters, a teacher.
Oh! A boy in PC World. Oh!
Oh, my God.
I played it on my phone on the bus.
Yeah? And the girl was like, "Shut up." Oh!
And the bus driver was like,
"Keep playing,
that track is sizzling, girl."
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Did he?
I don't know.
I've played it to Dean
and he said it was the bestsong
he has ever heard in his life.
Yes, I got your e-mail.
It's spam, I reported it.
Deano, I just let that five-bed
to a young judge. Don't care.
Stath's sister, sushi.
What's this? Where'd you get this?
Um, my dad's room.
No.
Ooh, you still here?
You should go home,
you still look a bit vom, Caz.
Oh, yeah, no, I know, it's mad.
Cos I look rank, but I'm actually fine,
so what's that about?
It's just going to be like a normal tour,
except there's just going to
be a little bit of a camera
filming your every move, or whatever.
So, as you can see, this living
room screams family, to the point,
I feel like I'm going to go deaf.
HE LAUGHS
Mick?
I've had a rough morning.
Ay, Mick, have a look at this rabbit.
Don't you think it's cute as a family?
Mick, you're not
Cos he's filming you,
you've got to do a lovely big smile for us.
And when I'm walking with my friend Mick,
here Where's Mick?
Come on, Mick.
CHANTING: Come on, Mick,
come on, Mick, come on, Mick.
Now keep quick with us, please, Mick.
We don't have to copy Julian as well,
but maybe just, like, do a little bit more cool
things like in that one. Cos we can do
them better, anyway, so it won't be the same.
That's fine. Yeah, just a bit of spice.
What do you think, Mick?
Shall we do some cool things in this one?
So we're going to be cool on the
Yeah, great. Whenever you're ready, Stath.
And then more of that. Wow. Wow. Wow.
Ow.
It's like a rainstorm of tissues.
You need to say more things like that. Ugh.
Would you be up for getting in there?
Just a couple of blokes having a wash? No?
I'm going to say something cool
and then I'm going to chuck the keys.
You've got to catch them, Al, or you,
whoever it comes closer to, OK?
Hey, if you don't like this room,
you're fresh out ofdice.
Oh, my God. Sorry. No, right.
It's all right. I thought
That was just a little too
aggressive. ..you might be able to catch it.
Again, just slightly Yeah,
I know, I need to do it gentler.
Now that we're in the bathroom,
I guess we're got to have a laugh room.
God! I'm sorry.
What sort of shots are you getting?
Quite clever ones?
Yeah, just, like, sort of, nice shots.
I think we can get cleverer shots,
to be honest. OK.
Hey, Mick, when you get a chair
that's cool as this, you know..
..you're going to be sitting pretty tonight.
Ouch! I'm sorry. I don't know why I
thought you was going to be able to catch that.
That's OK. Sorry, sorry,
I don't know why I was in there.
Hey, Mick, what do you think of the bedroom?
Right, can you do the thing
where you click on Mick's head
and make him smile,
and say something nice about the flat like,
"Yes?"
I'm not sure I know how
to do anything at all.
I know it was good when it was just you,
but I'm taking it from shin to hairline,
genuinely.
You know,
two months of me and you'll be able to afford
to make this place a little less disgusting.
Hello, there.
Stath, have you learned anything today?
Uh, we're actually creating a new,
better Michael & Eagle video.
Ha-ha! It's not drenched in water,
it's drenched in family
andquite serious men.
I had a drone. I had a choreographer.
Rita Ora's brother directed it.
Better? Mugs.
What, you think I didn't have all that?
What is that?
Julian, let him have a turn,
maybe it's a nice video.
Are you kidding? Vasos.
We'll watch them both
when it's finished then decide
which one we sell in HMV.
No, no, no, we're not selling them,
they're going online, Vasos.
Uh-huh.
All right, it doesn't matter,
I get it, it's fine,
it's like an outreach scheme, isn't it?
And I could have a go at doing my own one,
if needs be. No.
Right, Dean, on for sushi in five, yeah?
I'm just gonna show Vasos some wood samples.
I hate fish and I didn't ask for anything.
JULIAN LAUGHS Love ya.
Sorry, is our one incredible, or not?
Yeah.
Hey, Stath, nice one, man.
What What's she doing here?
QUIETLY: I don't even like her.
What did he say? I don't know.
What you guys doing?
You making a video, can we be in it?
Is Is it good?
You should let us be in it actually,
cos to h-have two girls in it,
that's actually equal rights. Yeah.
And also, if you let us be in it, we'll
We can sing in it.
Ooh, that'd be lit.
That is a fair truth.
Also, what, maybe, what would you do?
Like, um, a song?
Something about Michael & Eagle?

Dorothy from the smash-seller,
The Wizard Of Oz, once said,
"There's no place like home."

Oh, Tomoko's just texted, yeah.
I sent her the track,
just to get her thoughts.
Oh, the one in Japan? Japan?
She wants to end our relationship.
Because of the track?
Because she thinks that I'm very weak,
and she doesn't want to live in
Birmingham any more, and she really,
really fancies some other man.
It's a lovely bit of silk,
you choose the pocket lining.
He even lets you stitch it with him as well,
and he's open till late, Dean.
I don't want to make a suit tonight.
Oh, fair play to you, big man,
interns don't usually put in the hours.
AL LAUGHS

flats is actually the best
flat ofLondon today?

achieve dreams in life,
if you keep doing 20 smiles every day.
LOUD FLUSH
Da-da-da-da.
Hey, Mick, if you take the flat,
you gotta pay the rent.
Sorry.
CLAPPING
Why is this your video, Stathi?
What do you? Well, it's not finished yet.
Al's still got to do the water
and everything.
OK, enough is as much.
I think now we leave Julian to
do things in a fantastic way.
Maybe don't try to do anything ever.
It's nice sometimes to do nothing.
Come on, Steven.
Urgh.
Feel sick to my pip. Oh, no.
Do you think you got it from Carole,
she looked well-gurky today?
Well, that's cos she's pregnant.
She done a grey sick in a posh drawer.
No, is it?
