:58:01
l had a word with the Governors.
:58:03
They'll be happy
to interview you
:58:05
for Head of Year.
:58:06
Thanks, Ted.
:58:07
Ted...l'm not planning
to make a habit of this
:58:11
if that's what
you're worried about.
:58:13
lt's something out
of the ordinary for me.
:58:16
Just be prepared, OK?
:58:18
School Governors
can be a funny lot.
:58:24

'..Still Middlesborough nil,
:58:26
'Arsenal nil...'
:58:35
You're kidding. No way.
:58:39
Can't afford anywhere else.
:58:40
N5's not the only place
in the world, you know.
:58:44
Sarah, you know
that's not true.
:58:47
You hardly
hear anything, most games.
:58:50
How often do they play?
:58:51
Once a month.
:58:53
- Something like that.
- Right.
:58:54
Do they leave much mess?
:58:56
No. Shall l leave you
to look around?
:58:59
Thanks, yeah.
:59:02
What does it matter
how close to the ground you live
:59:06
as long as you can
come to the games?
:59:09
When l was a kid,
l read this...
:59:12
story about what used
to happen round here
:59:15
on Cup Final days
if Arsenal were playing.
:59:18
They'd have this procession.
:59:19
The women and kids
dressed up in fancy dress
:59:22
and led the men going
to Wembley to the station.
:59:31
l lived in Maidenhead.
:59:32
- What did we have there?
- Money, decent schools,
:59:35
holidays abroad, enough food.
:59:37
Yeah. You're right, yeah.
:59:39
l was lucky.
:59:40
But l was rootless, too.
:59:41
l didn't have
anything like that.
:59:43
Nothing l could be proud of,
:59:45
nothing l can look back on
and feel sentimental about
:59:49
except telly programmes
and pop music.
:59:51
But it's different here.
:59:56
Anyway...it's close to the tube.
:59:59
lt's 50 minutes
from the West End.
