So, in a last, desperate attempt to 'sort him out', his father decides to pack him off to Mrs Khan No 1 and family in the Punjab, the wife and daughters he had abandoned 35 years earlier.

Abdullah! Jahangir.
394
00:33:22,437 --> 00:33:23,950
He's a good boy.
395
00:33:24,917 --> 00:33:26,350
She would live in England,
396
00:33:26,877 --> 00:33:31,234
my wife will welcome her into our home
as if she were her own daughter.
397
00:33:32,357 --> 00:33:34,427
You are my friend, Jahangir.
398
00:33:35,797 --> 00:33:39,790
But there cannot be marriage
between my daughter and your son.

-But why?
-I mean you no disrespect.

But in England your life is
401
00:33:47,597 --> 00:33:48,950
different.
402
00:33:49,517 --> 00:33:51,428
Different from whose?
403
00:33:51,517 --> 00:33:53,826
Girls here marry in England
all the time.
404
00:33:54,277 --> 00:33:56,472
Your own eldest daughter
lives in England now.
405
00:33:56,557 --> 00:33:58,593
I said your life, Jahangir.
406
00:34:10,837 --> 00:34:12,190
I take it that were a ''no'', then.
407
00:34:14,437 --> 00:34:17,315
No one want their daughter marry you.
I bloody ashamed!
408
00:34:18,077 --> 00:34:19,396
Dad.
409
00:34:20,757 --> 00:34:23,635
Oh! I'll just find
me own way back, then, shall I?
410
00:34:23,917 --> 00:34:26,556
It's not like I'm in the middle
of fucking nowhere, is it?
411
00:34:29,677 --> 00:34:31,076
All right! Chigi-chigi-chigi!
412
00:34:31,237 --> 00:34:32,670
(all laughing)
413
00:34:38,717 --> 00:34:40,070
(door opens)
414
00:35:04,597 --> 00:35:05,996
Are you all right, Dad?
415
00:35:10,557 --> 00:35:12,627
It's all your fault, baster.
416
00:35:14,557 --> 00:35:18,152
You and you family
pucking giving me trouble all the time.
417
00:35:21,717 --> 00:35:23,673
Why you no go to your mam?
418
00:35:24,597 --> 00:35:26,315
Get out of my house.
419
00:35:27,277 --> 00:35:28,915
I no want you here.
420
00:35:30,157 --> 00:35:31,510
Go home!
421
00:35:31,677 --> 00:35:33,030
You no belong here.
422
00:35:33,117 --> 00:35:34,789
You always said we do belong here.
423
00:35:35,077 --> 00:35:37,545
-Go!
-What's changed your mind now, eh?
424
00:35:38,637 --> 00:35:40,150
Don't talk to me like this.
425
00:35:40,237 --> 00:35:41,909
You swan around here
like nothing's ever happened.
426
00:35:42,317 --> 00:35:44,194
Jahangir Khan,
the King of England, returned.
427
00:35:44,397 --> 00:35:47,434
-Shut up! Shut up!
-Too near the truth, is it?
428
00:35:48,477 --> 00:35:49,796
You make me laugh.
429
00:35:50,717 --> 00:35:52,275
Bringing Sajid here
to teach him a lesson?
430
00:35:52,437 --> 00:35:53,870
I warn you, mister.
