- It's not schoolteaching I'm after.
- I'd like to see you get on anyway.

:17:13
- You ready?
- Yes, Mr Barras.

:17:16
- (CHEERY GREETINGS)
- We shan't have any trouble now.

:17:23
Hey, you!
:17:26
Hey, he chose me! He chose me!
:17:42
Three good shirts I'm putting in for you.
:17:45
Send thy washing to a good woman.
None of their new-fangled laundries.

:17:51
- Have you got another handkerchief?
- Aye, Mother.

:17:54
- Making sure he's all poshed up?
- And his pit clothes will be kept posh.

:18:00
Maybe he'll be satisfied with them
some day, same as yourself, lad.

:18:07
Hello, Dad! Did you have a good time?
:18:10
Good as a holiday it was. Pity it weren't
licensed. Anyone seen owt of our Joe?

:18:16
There's been no sign of him.
:18:19
You off to Tynecastle, Davey? Best of luck,
lad. I've got great faith in you.

:18:24
- Thanks, Slogger.
- Bye, Martha.

:18:28
None of my family needed no college
education. They was good mining stock.

:18:34
Same as I thought your father were
before he set himself up against pit.

:18:39
You know they jailed me for nowt.
They got their knife into me over the strike.

:18:45
That don't surprise me. And I noticed
no one came forward to stand up for thee.

:18:51
It done one good thing -
left them free to settle strike.

:18:56
Got it over before I was out, eh?
:18:59
- Aye. How's your cough been, Father?
- This cough will never kill me.
