- I'm just gonna read
- everything aloud because...
- 6
- 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:17,360
- So, this is a letter from...

- 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:20,560
- the coroner for...

- [deep breath]

- 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,240
- "Dear Mr. von Einsiedel,
- 16
- 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:46,200
- following your wife’s request today
- in respect of your son’s last letter,
- 17
- 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,480
- please find this enclosed.
- 18
- 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,080
- Unfortunately, it is in a poor state.
- 19
- 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:53,800
- This was how it was sent to me.
- 20
- 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:55,880
- If I remember correctly,
- 21
- 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,320
- it was located in the pocket
- of his trousers when he was found.
- 22

- [gulps]
- 23

- So, this is my sister's room.
- 36
- 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,320
- There's Orlando, my older brother.
- 37
- 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,120
- Who are you?
- 38
- 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:54,960
- Is this your video diary?
- 39
- 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,200
- You keep all that video diary,
- I'll have to beat you up.

- [woman shouts] <i>Gwennie?</i>

- -Yeah?
- 44
- 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:13,240
- [Evelyn] This is my sister.
- 45
- 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:14,320
- Yo, yo.
- 46
- 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,880

- 49
- 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:23,760
- [Evelyn] Turn around.
- 50

- [phone ringing]
- 51
- 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:27,040
- Come back.
- 52
- 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,200
- Hang on a second.
- 53
- 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,000
- No comments, all right?
- 54
- 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:32,720
- I want the press out of here now.
- 55
- 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,680
- [Evelyn] Here's Tansy. Tansy, doggie.

- What's that? Wow, wow.
- 59
- 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,400
- Wow, wow. Wow.
- 60
- 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:45,560
- That's my little brother.
- 61
- 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,200
- -Wicked.
- -[Evelyn] Wicked, wicked, wicked.
- 62
- 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:49,960
- E, can you film my skate later?
- 63
- 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:51,120
- [Evelyn] Yeah, man.
- 64
- 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,760
- Skateboards.

- [footsteps]
- 66
- 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,520
- -[Evelyn] All right, Mom. What's up?
- -[Mom] Hello.
- 67
- 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:03,440
- Nothing.
- 68
- 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:05,560
- [reedy voice] Oh, my God!
- 69
- 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,200
- This is my mom. This is our kitchen.
- 70
- 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:09,840
- [Mom] Who's this for?
- 71
- 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,800
- This is our cooker. Dog.
- 72
- 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,440
- Woof, dog.
- 73
- 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:14,560
- Woof, dog.
- 74
- 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,120
- That's all for episode one
- from the Einsiedels.
- 75
- 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,360
- [man] <i>Thirteen years ago,</i>
- <i>my beautiful brother took his own life.</i>
- 76
- 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,680
- <i>It left a void that's just never healed.</i>
- 77

- [wind gusting]
- 78
- 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,360
- I'm Orlando von Einsiedel
- 79
- 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,480
- and I'm a filmmaker.
- 80
- 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,960
- Most of the films I make
- are in conflict zones.

- -[gunfire]
- <i>-Go, go, go!</i>
- 82
- 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,160
- Putting myself in risky situations...
- 83
- 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,440
- has just been something I was
- comfortable with.
- 84
- 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,120
- [gunshots]
- 85
- 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:11,360
- [indistinct chatter]
- 86
- 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,480
- I've always tried to push myself.

- [melancholic music playing]
- 88
- 00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:20,880
- Despite all of that, I can't bring myself
- to talk about
- 89
- 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,560
- what happened to my brother
- and how he died.
- 90
- 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,600
- I mean, I can barely say his name.
- 91
- 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,400
- You know, apart from conversations where
- 92
- 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,480
- it's almost been forced on me, I...
- 93
- 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,280
- I don't talk about him at all.
- 94
- 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,280
- Neither do my brother and sister,
- Gwennie and Robin.
- 95
- 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,080
- [man] That's why you're packed so light.
- 96
- 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:47,920
- [Orlando] My brother loved walking.
- 97
- 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,560
- And we've decided to try and face
- the things we just couldn't
- 98
- 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:57,400
- on a five-week walk in places
- that we spent time together with him.
- 99
- 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,080
- Along the way, our family
- and his best friends are going to join us.
- 100
- 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,880
- [inhales] Um...
- 101
- 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,840
- Today, I'm feeling really nervous.
- 102
- 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:10,760
- Um...
- 103
- 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,160
- You know, in the run-up to this,
- 104
- 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,760
- I've obviously had to talk a little bit
- about what we're going to do.
- 105
- 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,160
- Um...
- 106
- 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:21,880
- But there's like a...
- 107
- 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:23,720
- There's a-- There's a sort of a...
- 108
- 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,240
- There's a point.
- There's a tipping point where...
- 109
- 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,360
- I can kind of talk about the logistics
- of doing a walk
- 110
- 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:33,640
- and knowing that we're going
- to talk about Evelyn.
- 111
- 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,440
- But if I cross that point,
- I immediately...
- 112
- 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,880
- [voice breaking]
- Even talking about it now... [inhales]
- 113
- 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:40,840
- [exhales]
- 114
- 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:42,400

- [wind blowing]
- 117
- 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,400
- [woman] He was spiritual, Evelyn.
- 118
- 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:09,160
- [clicks tongue] Um...
- 119
- 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,720
- He was always thinking on--
- 120
- 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,280
- He was on a different level.
- 121
- 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,560
- Evelyn had a few very close friends.
- 122
- 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,800
- He wasn't a big party, social person.
- 123
- 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,480
- He was um... more retreating.
- 124
- 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,400
- Just last year,
- 125
- 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,520
- um... [gulps, clicks tongue]
- 126
- 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:33,560
- I had a conversation with Orlando
- in the autumn, and he--
- 127
- 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,320
- In that kind of a older brother way,
- 128
- 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,560
- he checks in with me every now and again,
- and it's like, "How are you?
- 129
- 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,200
- How are you really?" You know.
- "Are you happy?" [chuckles]
- 130
- 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,000
- Um... And I just... I burst into tears,
- 131
- 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,080
- and I said I'm really struggling
- with the memory of Evelyn
- 132
- 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,400
- and the fact that none of us
- have talked about it.
- 133
- 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:54,560
- And this walk through places
- that we walked with Evelyn,
- 134
- 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,760
- provides us with such a rare opportunity
- to talk,
- 135
- 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:00,440
- to remember,
- 136
- 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:01,440
- um...
- 137
- 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,600
- to perhaps make sense, if at all,
- 138
- 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,320
- of what we all went through at that time
- and what Evelyn went through.
- 139
- 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:11,960
- Was Evelyn taller than Orlando?
- 140
- 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,360
- -At one point, he was.
- -[bird screeching]
- 141
- 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:18,080
- When he was older.
- 142
- 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,080
- [stutters] But not as babies?
- 143
- 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,200
- No, Orlando was athletic.
- Evelyn wasn't athletic.
- 144
- 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,040
- [man]
- This will be a healing process...
- 145
- 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,640
- or, you know, something which...
- 146
- 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,520
- we're able to look quite introspective...
- 147
- 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,840
- into our own family and into ourselves
- 148
- 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,240
- and sort of take
- what we haven't spoken about
- 149
- 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,760
- and deal with it, being sort of open
- 150
- 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,880
- and not sort of--
- 151
- 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:52,320
- We're able to confront it, rather than
- avoiding this-- this discussion.
- 152
- 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:59,400
- Coming to terms with things in a way
- that you couldn't 15 years ago.
- 153
- 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,080
- It's very helpful for you...
- 154
- 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:04,600
- as a person.
- 155
- 00:09:04,680 --> 00:09:06,800
- I hope so. I mean,
- I think that's why... [chuckles]
- 156
- 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,400
- That's why we wanna do this.
- 157
- 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,800
- Yes, I think it's such a good idea.
- 158
- 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,480
- How-- How have--
- How have you coped, Mom?
- 159
- 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,480
- -How have I coped? Um...
- -Yeah.
- 160
- 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:24,920
- I think... initially when it happened,
- I panicked that I'd die over it.
- 161
- 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,480
- I just thought I'd fall to the ground
- and have a heart attack.
- 162
- 00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:29,640
- So...
- 163
- 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:35,200
- It was so-- I couldn't even admit
- to myself how frightening it was
- 164
- 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,120
- because in saying the word "frightening"
- 165
- 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:43,320
- or "horrifying," I'd have a panic attack
- saying that word.
- 166
- 00:09:43,560 --> 00:09:46,160
- So, I was doing as much as I could
- 167
- 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:50,240
- to basically focus on anything
- to cope with...
- 168
- 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:52,000
- the shock.
- 169
- 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:59,280
- I grieved horribly or sadly
- on his birthday and at Christmas,
- 170
- 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:00,800
- and then, you know,
- 171
- 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,920
- every now and then something
- would make you remember it.
- 172
- 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,240
- A word or a person's face.
- 173
- 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,200
- I've met people...
- 174
- 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:24,160
- who have reminded me of Evelyn
- in the last 13 years.
- 175
- 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,040
- -Me too.
- -There was one, I had to go hold his arm,
- 176
- 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,600
- and I thought, this is how Evelyn
- would have been if he'd stayed alive.
- 177
- 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,720
- And I had to say, "I'm sorry,
- you look like my son, Evelyn.
- 178
- 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:48,440
- I can't believe it."
- 179
- 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,920
- He just smiled,
- and his smile was like Evelyn's.
- 180
- 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,000
- Evelyn was my second son.
- 181
- 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,040
- And he was very intelligent
- 182
- 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,400
- and grew in stature
- through his academic years.
- 183
- 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:05,800
- And...
- 184
- 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,040
- Everybody loved him.
- 185
- 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,360
- And Evelyn, who was so highly intelligent,
- had won chemistry cups
- 186
- 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,560
- and all sorts of things at school
- and wanted to be a doctor.
- 187
- 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,640
- He was very caring and sympathetic.
- 188
- 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,840
- And he seemed absolutely fine
- 189
- 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,920
- until he was about 17 or 18...
- 190
- 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,880
- when he had a terrific downfall.
- 191
- 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:30,840
- He became depressed,
- 192
- 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,560
- couldn't do anything.
- 193
- 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,040
- [clicks tongue] Um...
- 194
- 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,320
- He left school and had a gap year.
- 195
- 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,840
- And... longed to go to Africa.
- 196
- 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,960
- So he went to Africa, to Namibia...
- [sniffs]
- 197
- 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:47,440
- ...and his father put him in a placement
- with a German family.
- 198
- 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,360
- And he seemed perfectly happy for a while.
- 199
- 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:53,560
- [sniffs]
- 200
- 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:54,720
- [voice breaking] And then...
- 201
- 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:56,800
- all of the sudden... [sniffs]
- 202
- 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:01,520
- ...all his happiness that he faxed through
- to all of us...
- 203
- 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:03,360
- disappeared.
- 204
- 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:04,440
- [birds screeching]
- 205
- 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,680
- You know, Evelyn, in the next two
- to three years, the darling angel
- 206
- 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:13,000
- became a monster
- that we couldn't understand,
- 207
- 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:14,880
- or we tried to understand,
- 208
- 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:20,440
- um... but it was so not Evelyn
- to be who he was being.
- 209
- 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:22,160
- [sniffs]
- 210
- 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,160
- [Robin] I spent a lot of time with E
- the last few weeks.
- 211
- 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,480
- [stuttering] I was in the house
- when Evelyn left
- 212
- 00:12:29,560 --> 00:12:32,640
- -and he, subsequently, didn't come back.
- -[bell rings, kids laughing]
- 213
- 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,840
- [stuttering] And I remember...
- 214
- 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,760
- this exchange or this conversation
- I'm having with him.
- 215
- 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,560
- And, you know, I think...
- 216
- 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,720
- -What did you-- What was said?
- -That sort of--
- 217
- 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,520
- This--
- 218
- 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,360
- When he was in Scotland
- to being in London,
- 219
- 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,960
- you know, he was saying, like,
- "I'm gonna kill myself,"
- 220
- 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:55,440
- like all the time.
- 221
- 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:56,520
- It's not like...
- 222
- 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,040
- He'd planned it, I think, a year before.
- 223
- 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,720
- Well, Mom and I...
- 224
- 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,640
- found him trying to do it at home,
- 225
- 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,240
- and we both had to cut him down
- from the trapeze.
- 226
- 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,440
- I don't know if we ever talked about that.
- But that wasn't--
- 227
- 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,200
- Yeah, I remember you telling me
- about that.
- 228
- 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:11,760
- -You know what--
- -That was awful.
- 229
- 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,480
- Somebody said to me,
- they do it when you least expect it.
- 230
- 00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:17,360
- That was what they said,
- and the point was,
- 231
- 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,520
- that night he had such a panic attack
- at full moon.
- 232
- 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,880
- I thought we'd got him through it
- that night.
- 233
- 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:27,560
- -When he went off to see Jack--
- -[sobbing]
- 234
- 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:28,680
- Oh, G.
- 235
- 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,760
- [crying]
- 236
- 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,680
- Most of the time today,
- if I'm honest, um...
- 237
- 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,080
- I'm just feeling sad. [chuckles]
- 238
- 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,200
- Um... So...
- 239
- 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:02,120
- [inhales]
- 240
- 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,120
- I don't know. It's hard.
- It's-- It's really draining...
- 241
- 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,360
- talking about this and...
- 242
- 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:15,560
- [breathes deeply]
- 243
- 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:20,800
- And then it's especially hard when I see
- how upset they've all got today.
- 244
- 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,400
- [melancholic music playing]
- 245
- 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:57,200
- [Gwen sighs]
- 246
- 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,160
- I think this is good for all of us,
- 247
- 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,080
- but I think it's especially good
- for Robin.
- 248
- 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:08,720
- What? Talking?
- 249
- 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:09,640
- Yeah.
- 250
- 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,680
- Why? Is it because you think he...
- 251
- 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:14,000
- [panting]
- 252
- 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,400
- I think if he...[chuckles] Yeah...
- 253
- 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,680
- I'd actually just say speak for yourself,
- Orlando.
- 254
- 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:20,760
- [chuckles]
- 255
- 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,120
- -All right. Fair. Fair enough.
- -Fair enough.
- 256
- 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,280
- [Gwen] Robin's actually like--
- I think Robin's remarkably...
- 257
- 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:31,720
- articulate about his emotions.
- 258
- 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,640
- If you ask him about it.
- He doesn't <i>share </i>them.
- 259
- 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,320
- He's not-- I mean, neither of you
- are like that. You don't just...
- 260
- 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:39,960
- talk willingly about yourselves.
- 261
- 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,400
- [Gwen] I can't tell you how good it felt
- 262
- 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,200
- when I finally talked to Orlando
- back in September.
- 263
- 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,200
- I said to him, you know,
- I'm really struggling with...
- 264
- 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,480
- with Evelyn and with this memory and...
- 265
- 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,480
- And to hear... To have him...
- 266
- 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,360
- kind of acknowledge that and say,
- you know, Gwennie,
- 267
- 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,920
- I haven't even been able to say his name
- for like ten years. [sobbing]
- 268
- 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:01,960
- I've...
- 269
- 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,840
- You know, it was just like
- I opened a tiny valve,
- 270
- 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,880
- and I was like, oh, my God,
- we're actually talking about this.
- 271
- 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:10,200
- And we're both saying...
- 272
- 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:12,680
- [gulps] We've both struggled.
- 273
- 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,680
- And um... [clears throat] ...that...
- 274
- 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:19,640
- That felt like such huge progress already,
- just to even like say his name together.
- 275
- 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,560
- To acknowledge...
- 276
- 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:27,240
- that we'd both struggled. And to hear
- Orlando's side of it too was...
- 277
- 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,760
- You know, I just kind of thought Orlando
- was a complete...
- 278
- 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,160
- completely emotionally stunted. [laughs]
- 279
- 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,120
- I've never seen Orlando cry.
- 280
- 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,040
- [sniffs]
- 281
- 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,040
- -It is magical, isn't it?
- -Yeah.
- 282
- 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:51,320
- [sighs]
- 283
- 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:54,280
- Nice.
- 284
- 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:58,920
- Evil, little sister.
- 285
- 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,960
- -What are you?
- -She wasn't anymore risky.
- 286
- 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,200
- [Harriet] After tests, they decided
- it wasn't depression.
- 287
- 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:15,760
- It was schizophrenia.
- 288
- 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,680
- And that diagnosis nearly finished me off.
- [weeping]
- 289
- 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,280
- But it was just because,
- I think, as a mom,
- 290
- 00:17:23,360 --> 00:17:26,040
- you've gone down so far with them...
- [sniffs]
- 291
- 00:17:26,120 --> 00:17:30,040
- ...and when they-- when they come up
- with a diagnosis like that,
- 292
- 00:17:30,120 --> 00:17:34,360
- it's pretty frightening for your child
- to have a diagnosis like that.
- 293
- 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:39,280
- I think having a child with schizophrenia
- was quite a stigma.
- 294
- 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,600
- And being a single parent
- was quite a stigma too.
- 295
- 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:44,080
- And-- And so...
- 296
- 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,240
- a lot of people would go,
- 297
- 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,560
- "You are a single parent and...
- 298
- 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:54,320
- and it's probably your fault that
- Evelyn got schizophrenia."
- 299
- 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,600
- -I don't think anyone thought that.
- -[Harriet] Well, it makes people...
- 300
- 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:03,520
- try and criticize you, or even try
- and make-- be frightened of you.
- 301
- 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,760
- But really you have no idea
- that schizophrenia is--
- 302
- 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,760
- When you look back, it's so frightening,
- what the chemistry does.
- 303
- 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:12,920
- It's frightening.
- 304
- 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:14,680
- That one minute you're,
- 305
- 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:16,480
- as a person,
- 306
- 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,080
- absolutely 100% fine.
- 307
- 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,160
- And gradually and gradually, you get this
- deterioration of your brain.
- 308
- 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:29,720
- And what it does to the brain that you,
- as the individual, can't control.
- 309
- 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:31,400
- I still feel...
- 310
- 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:35,240
- remarkably ignorant about it,
- despite what I know.
- 311
- 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,760
- In many ways, often when you go through
- something, and you...
- 312
- 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,400
- Or you experience something
- that changes your life,
- 313
- 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:46,520
- it might then draw you to do
- a lot of research about it and get--
- 314
- 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,360
- You know, understand it better.
- 315
- 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,840
- And I definitely went the other way
- after Evelyn killed himself.
- 316
- 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,280
- I couldn't interact with anything
- to do with mental health,
- 317
- 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,720
- anything to do with
- those sorts of conditions.
- 318
- 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,600
- It just-- I just didn't...
- 319
- 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:03,080
- You know, it was too painful.
- 320
- 00:19:09,120 --> 00:19:11,440
- [Harriet] When I sometimes think
- of him deeply,
- 321
- 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,320
- there are six points
- that come into my head
- 322
- 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,280
- that I don't try and think of,
- but they come towards me.
- 323
- 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:19,600
- One is...
- 324
- 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,360
- he used to whisper in your ear.
- 325
- 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:24,760
- -Yeah, he did.
- -[Gwen] Yes.
- 326
- 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,680
- The other one was his giggle.
- 327
- 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:29,040
- [Gwen] Yeah.
- 328
- 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,560
- -The other were his twinkling eyes.
- -[Gwen] Yeah.
- 329
- 00:19:33,120 --> 00:19:36,720
- The other one was
- he had the loudest farts.
- 330
- 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,000
- [Gwen] I was about to say that!
- 331
- 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:40,240
- [laughs]
- 332
- 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,480
- Mom, I can't believe
- that's one of your memories. That's also--
- 333
- 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,920
- I actually don't remember the loudness.
- I remember
- 334
- 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:48,480
- -the smell. [laughs]
- -[Robin] The smell.
- 335
- 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:49,440
- Yeah.
- 336
- 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,040
- [laughing] It's...
- 337
- 00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:54,320
- But if you were to ask me
- sort of ten things,
- 338
- 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,760
- I definitely would have listed that
- as one of them.
- 339
- 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:57,680
- Yeah.
- 340
- 00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,760
- [melancholic music playing]
- 341
- 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,960
- [Harriet and Gwen humming]
- 342
- 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,520
- [both laugh]
- 343
- 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,560
- [humming continues]
- 344
- 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,240
- [Harriet sighs and chuckles]
- 345
- 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,520
- -[Harriet] Woo!
- -[both laugh]
- 346
- 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,560
- -Novel!
- -Oh, my lovely, veiled bride.
- 347
- 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,320
- [both chuckle]
- 348
- 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,960
- [thunder rumbling]
- 349
- 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:13,160
- Look outside.
- 350
- 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:16,400
- Nice.
- 351
- 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:18,480
- Nice weather.
- 352
- 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,520
- -I'd like to say this is really...
- -Nice.
- 353
- 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:24,480
- Nice.
- 354
- 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,360
- -It's fucking--
- -But you can't.
- 355
- 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:28,720
- I understand.
- 356
- 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,600
- [Orlando]
- Mom, where were you when you found out?
- 357
- 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,280
- [Harriet] The day he died,
- 358
- 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:47,360
- [sniffs] Um... [clicks tongue]
- 359
- 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:51,880
- I woke up in the morning and rushed into
- his bedroom and he wasn't there.
- 360
- 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,640
- And I woke Gwennie, and I said,
- "Gwennie, where is he?
- 361
- 00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:01,520
- I’ve got this horrible suspicion
- he’s not with Jack." [clicks tongue]
- 362
- 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,160
- And I got in the car with her,
- 363
- 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,480
- and we went looking around the streets
- everywhere.
- 364
- 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:08,760
- We couldn’t find him.
- 365
- 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,160
- We couldn’t find him anywhere.
- 366
- 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,760
- And Kevin had offered...
- 367
- 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,040
- He said, "Oh, I can help you. I’ll help."
- 368
- 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:24,400
- And he went down the garden,
- and then he came back,
- 369
- 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,440
- this was in the afternoon, with a face.
- 370
- 00:22:28,120 --> 00:22:31,000
- And I just saw that face, and I thought,
- "Oh, my God.
- 371
- 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,320
- Evelyn’s in the garden." I never looked.
- 372
- 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,400
- I never looked
- at the bottom of the garden.
- 373
- 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,880
- And he said,
- "I think we'd better ring the police."
- 374
- 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,400
- And I was so stunned.
- The police came, and I said...
- 375
- 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,960
- And the police said,
- "I don’t think you should go down."
- 376
- 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,240
- And of course being me, Mom,
- I said, "I’m going down."
- 377
- 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:58,360
- And I went down,
- 378
- 00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:04,440
- and he was lying on the ground
- in a bivvy bag,
- 379
- 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,160
- which they were zipping up.
- 380
- 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,880
- [Gwen] They're having
- a really dark conversation, Robin.
- 381
- 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,040
- And it's that sort of stunning moment,
- 382
- 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:14,800
- you want to wake him up.
- 383
- 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:16,360
- [Gwen] Do you wanna join in, or not?
- 384
- 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,200
- Yeah. That’s how it happened.
- 385
- 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,080
- And I remember him leaving the house.
- 386
- 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:27,560
- [sniffs] Um...
- 387
- 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,640
- It was about six in the evening.
- Still light. September.
- 388
- 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:32,480
- And then... um...
- 389
- 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:34,480
- And then... uh...
- 390
- 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,800
- [stuttering] He left the house, and...
- 391
- 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,840
- and I thought nothing of it.
- 392
- 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,360
- And then going to school the next day,
- 393
- 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:47,320
- um...
- 394
- 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,880
- and then getting called to the...
- 395
- 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,200
- the headmaster’s office,
- 396
- 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,160
- um... and told I had to go home.
- 397
- 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,800
- I remember the drama teacher
- gave me a lift home.
- 398
- 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:06,760
- [sniffs]
- 399
- 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:08,320
- And uh...
- 400
- 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,640
- [voice breaking] Yeah, I saw the ambulance
- and the police outside.
- 401
- 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:17,680
- [exhales]
- 402
- 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,760
- [thunder rumbling]
- 403
- 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,640
- [Robin] So I find
- 404
- 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,200
- just because, you know,
- days are such a long time,
- 405
- 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,040
- there’s so much to think about.
- 406
- 00:24:35,120 --> 00:24:38,680
- He invariably pops into--
- I mean, maybe because I live at home.
- 407
- 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,160
- There's just so many--
- There’s so many pictures of him...
- 408
- 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:43,120
- -Yeah.
- -...there.
- 409
- 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,920
- It sort of-- He's actually--
- It feels very present.
- 410
- 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:50,720
- [thunderclaps]
- 411
- 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,800
- Yeah, so I kind of
- have these dreams where...
- 412
- 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:59,040
- he appears,
- and it’s just, "Oh, hey. You’re back."
- 413
- 00:24:59,120 --> 00:25:00,760
- -And he’s like, "Yeah, here I am."
- -Yeah.
- 414
- 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:05,320
- “Where did you go?” “Oh, you know,”
- and it’s this strange dialogue.
- 415
- 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,440
- We’re talking, and you know...
- 416
- 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,880
- -Yeah, you know this thing’s not right.
- -Yes.
- 417
- 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,280
- And it’s like...
- 418
- 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,800
- you know, "It’s so great to see you.
- 419
- 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,240
- Don’t go. Can you just like stay here?"
- 420
- 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:28,680
- And...
- 421
- 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,080
- I remember it’s this really strange thing.
- 422
- 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:38,400
- It’s like this warmth of something
- coming back.
- 423
- 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:42,080
- It feels quite complete, and then--
- You know, and then you wake up.
- 424
- 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:44,480
- -And it’s completely severed.
- -Yeah.
- 425
- 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,160
- And... But...
- 426
- 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:54,040
- I just... I always remember
- this very repetitive dialogue of,
- 427
- 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,120
- you know, like, "Don’t go."
- 428
- 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:58,800
- -[Harriet] Yes.
- -Please stay.
- 429
- 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:00,440
- [Gwen] Yeah.
- 430
- 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,520
- [melancholic piano music playing]
- 431
- 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,160
- [Robin] I see Evelyn as like a...
- as a guardian.
- 432
- 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,520
- -[Orlando] Keeping an eye on you?
- -[Robin] Yeah. I don’t know.
- 433
- 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,040
- [Robin] If I had to pray,
- it would be to that, rather than...
- 434
- 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:20,560
- somewhere else.
- 435
- 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:27,680
- [Harriet]
- Evelyn loved this walk, didn’t he?
- 436
- 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,760
- [Orlando] Every day, I’m questioning
- 437
- 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:50,880
- whether or not this whole thing
- is a good idea.
- 438
- 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,720
- It’s really tough. Um...
- 439
- 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,480
- It’s so much harder
- than I thought this would be.
- 440
- 00:26:57,120 --> 00:26:58,000
- Um...
- 441
- 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,680
- I’m struggling
- just to hold it all together.
- 442
- 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:20,080
- [Orlando] Are you all right?
- 443
- 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:22,400
- -[Gwen] All right.
- -How are you, Gwennie?
- 444
- 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,120
- -Fine. How are you doing?
- -I'm good.
- 445
- 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:26,120
- -Hi.
- -Look at me.
- 446
- 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:27,800
- -How was your journey?
- -Hello, sweetheart.
- 447
- 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:28,720
- Darling. [kisses]
- 448
- 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:30,480
- [man] It was boring as hell.
- 449
- 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,800
- Oh, why didn’t you do something
- more interesting?
- 450
- 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:34,160
- Why was it boring?
- 451
- 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,880
- Because it is. Some people on the train.
- 452
- 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:38,200
- -[woman laughs]
- -[Gwen] Hi, Jo!
- 453
- 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:39,160
- Hi, Gwennie! [chuckles]
- 454
- 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,000
- -[Robin] The man.
- -[Gwen] I like your sunglasses.
- 455
- 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,600
- [man] <i>Unfortunately,</i>
- <i>the marriage fell apart...</i>
- 456
- 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,200
- [inhales]<i> ...when the kids were</i>
- <i>still very young.</i>
- 457
- 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:47,800
- I mean, Robin was barely born.
- 458
- 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:49,480
- Evelyn was...
- 459
- 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,960
- Eighty-eight.
- Evelyn was six, and so as he grew up,
- 460
- 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:54,760
- I always felt he was sort of the...
- 461
- 00:27:55,280 --> 00:28:00,000
- um... the strongest link between myself
- and maybe his mother.
- 462
- 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,520
- And I feel I had a very similar role
- in my own family.
- 463
- 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,400
- [water flowing]
- 464
- 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:11,360
- Evelyn was much more in touch
- with being from my part of the family,
- 465
- 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:16,360
- of an Einsiedel... [stuttering]
- ...than you or Gwennie, you know?
- 466
- 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,320
- Um... Gwennie is completely,
- 467
- 00:28:20,120 --> 00:28:23,360
- I think emotionally on the Duckworth side.
- 468
- 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,720
- Do you want to explain
- that a little bit further?
- 469
- 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,640
- My strongest impression will be
- 470
- 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,840
- the enormous amount of tension there was
- in the air when we arrived.
- 471
- 00:28:31,360 --> 00:28:33,600
- It was crackling, and I think-- And...
- 472
- 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,400
- I thought, you know,
- that something will explode.
- 473
- 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,600
- And I thought it would be likely
- to be Gwennie and Andreas
- 474
- 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,400
- because it was just electric.
- 475
- 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:49,640
- No, I can’t really explain that, Gwennie.
- It’s only... It’s only your... um...
- 476
- 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:51,920
- The things you like in life.
- 477
- 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,080
- I’m not being critical.
- 478
- 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:55,720
- Uh... The-- The--
- 479
- 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:59,080
- You know, you were extremely close
- to your granny. Um...
- 480
- 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:03,560
- You know, you’re drawn towards Scotland.
- All these things. It’s quite natural.
- 481
- 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,040
- And Evelyn was actually the only one who
- spent a bit of time in Germany, you know.
- 482
- 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,240
- Don’t forget, in his gap year, he spent...
- 483
- 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,200
- I don’t know, two months,
- three months in Munich.
- 484
- 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,600
- He was the best German speaker of you.<i> </i>
- 485
- 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:18,600
- -[Gwen] Uh...
- -[scoffs]
- 486
- 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:20,080
- At the time.
- 487
- 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,240
- -I think you’re romant-- See, this is it.
- -Possibly.
- 488
- 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,680
- This is it. This is where your memory
- is now romanticizing Evelyn.
- 489
- 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:27,160
- Yeah, maybe. Was your German better?
- 490
- 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,120
- I was the only one that did it
- for A Level.
- 491
- 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,480
- Right, okay. Well, that... Yes.
- 492
- 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,560
- And-- And then also spent time there.
- 493
- 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,040
- -But not as much as E.
- -And you always said,
- 494
- 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,760
- "Of all my children,
- you’re the best German speaker."
- 495
- 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,160
- Okay. I take it back then, Gwennie.
- Then it was you.
- 496
- 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:43,600
- No. I mean, I’m not-- It’s fine.
- 497
- 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,120
- I’m happy for Evelyn to have that medal
- 498
- 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,160
- -because he did--
- -[chuckling]
- 499
- 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:47,400
- But it’s just-- I’m just--
- 500
- 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,160
- I want to pull you up a little bit because
- I think sometimes when people die...
- 501
- 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:52,200
- Okay. Yes.
- 502
- 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,360
- -We view them with qualities--
- -We view them with--
- 503
- 00:29:56,440 --> 00:30:00,040
- Qualities, you know,
- which they may not have had.
- 504
- 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,440
- That’s absolutely possible.
- 505
- 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,320
- [Johanna] Have you read any of the things
- that we handed over to...
- 506
- 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,240
- Orlando? You know, the paperwork?
- 507
- 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,200
- -[Robin] From what?
- -From E's...
- 508
- 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,520
- There’s some reports from the Maudsley--
- 509
- 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:13,520
- [Robin] No, I haven’t.
- 510
- 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,840
- Now Evelyn had started to change...
- 511
- 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:17,160
- [inhales]
- 512
- 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,480
- ...actually when he was 18.
- 513
- 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:22,400
- Schizophrenia.
- 514
- 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:26,280
- It manifests itself typically in boys
- in the late teens,
- 515
- 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,480
- and I think Evelyn was no exception there.
- 516
- 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:29,640
- [inhales]
- 517
- 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:34,120
- We have a history in my family
- of male suicide...
- 518
- 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,800
- unfortunately, and, um...
- 519
- 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,840
- somehow, I just felt it,
- and it was my worry.
- 520
- 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,040
- When Evelyn became ill,
- it was my increasing worry
- 521
- 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,360
- that this will be a likely outcome.
- 522
- 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:55,960
- And everybody, the medicals,
- the doctors who treated him, who saw him,
- 523
- 00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,840
- said this was not the case.
- “He’s not suicidal.”
- 524
- 00:30:59,920 --> 00:31:03,560
- When Evelyn got quite ill
- and was put into the Maudsley,
- 525
- 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,640
- Bougle got ill, my mother,
- 526
- 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:10,040
- and she had to go to be hospitalized
- with depression as well.
- 527
- 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,600
- So Bougle spent six months
- in that hospital,
- 528
- 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,560
- and that overlapped with Evelyn dying.
- 529
- 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:17,640
- And...
- 530
- 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:20,040
- when I told her that,
- 531
- 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:24,600
- she said to me, “I’ve spoken
- to my doctor here, the consultant,
- 532
- 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:26,800
- and he said to me,
- 533
- 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,560
- 'If your son had been in our care,
- this would not have happened.’”
- 534
- 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:33,880
- Right?
- 535
- 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:39,400
- So, again, that was not exactly
- what I wanted to hear.
- 536
- 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:40,320
- Um...
- 537
- 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:41,440
- Who said that?
- 538
- 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,080
- [Andreas] The German doctor.
- 539
- 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,160
- The German psychiatrist said this would
- not have happened, which of course,
- 540
- 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,400
- you know,
- I don’t put much credence to this, but--
- 541
- 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,040
- Well, maybe you should compare
- young male suicide rate
- 542
- 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,320
- between Germany and the UK.
- 543
- 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,600
- They kill themselves there just as much.
- Um...
- 544
- 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:00,760
- And... um...
- 545
- 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:03,800
- But I’ve come to the conclusion...
- 546
- 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,920
- now that, you know,
- what else can you think?
- 547
- 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,960
- I’m not going to go say,
- “Look, we could have avoided this
- 548
- 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,120
- had he had better medical care.”
- 549
- 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,520
- [inhales] Um... You know,
- better medical care wasn’t available,
- 550
- 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,320
- and I don’t think actually it would have
- made a difference,
- 551
- 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,200
- quite frankly.
- 552
- 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:28,960
- I don’t know. But, anyway, look...
- 553
- 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:34,560
- I don’t want to go there because the idea
- that it could have been prevented
- 554
- 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,120
- is just too much to bear.
- 555
- 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:38,120
- [sniffs]
- 556
- 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:40,560
- [bangs] No!
- 557
- 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,800
- [Andreas] I’m sorry! I’m not chilling out!
- These are people.
- 558
- 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,080
- They need to understand how to do things!
- 559
- 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:46,400
- Dad, stop it.
- 560
- 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,920
- Don’t criticize me
- when I tell these people how to do it!
- 561
- 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:51,320
- -I’m just saying...
- -Do it properly.
- 562
- 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,840
- -...chill the fuck out.
- -Chill out, okay.
- 563
- 00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:58,400
- Jesus.
- 564
- 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,040
- -[Gwen] Wow.
- -[Andreas clears throat]
- 565
- 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:02,320
- -Jeez.
- -It's not a big deal.
- 566
- 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:07,040
- I’m sorry.
- 567
- 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,840
- I know you don’t like being challenged,
- but sometimes--
- 568
- 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,960
- -I don’t think you can behave like that.
- -[Johanna] Nobody does. Nor do you.
- 569
- 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:19,120
- Fine, but I’m still the one to bring it up
- because it makes us all feel awful.
- 570
- 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:20,040
- No!
- 571
- 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,440
- We’re dealing with
- really difficult material!
- 572
- 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,200
- -But that’s completely separate really!
- -And for you to lose your shit
- 573
- 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,920
- about the fact that your meal
- came together is like...
- 574
- 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:29,040
- Really?
- 575
- 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,320
- One has nothing to do with the other.
- 576
- 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:34,720
- Separate that.
- 577
- 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:41,080
- If you're in a restaurant,
- you're not doing their job.
- 578
- 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:42,440
- It’s okay.
- 579
- 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,440
- -Gwennie, drop it--
- -That’s all it is.
- 580
- 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,120
- [indistinct chatter]
- 581
- 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,960
- I just don’t--
- Also, I’m sorry we’re not like...
- 582
- 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:04,360
- like, we don’t revere you like some kind
- of like respecting father figure.
- 583
- 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,480
- You don’t have to revere me.
- I don’t want that!
- 584
- 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,240
- -Well, then accept that in order--
- -We don’t have that relationship.
- 585
- 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,000
- -But I do, Gwen.
- -Yeah, I know.
- 586
- 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,440
- -I do accept it!
- -Exactly, but then great.
- 587
- 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,240
- -I do accept it.
- -Thank you for accepting it.
- 588
- 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,280
- No, I completely accept it.
- I know I was an idiot.
- 589
- 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:21,240
- You know? Sorry.
- 590
- 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,160
- I don’t know why
- I lose my temper like this
- 591
- 00:34:24,240 --> 00:34:26,560
- on, kind of, on a nothing, you know?
- 592
- 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,240
- -On a complete nothing.
- -On a complete nothing, you know, but--
- 593
- 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,480
- -And in such a public space. Just--
- -Yes.
- 594
- 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:37,280
- But it was a combination of things,
- I think.
- 595
- 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:39,600
- [Andreas exhales]
- 596
- 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:45,160
- [Johanna] Right or wrong, Orlando,
- I feel Gwennie does hold Andreas
- 597
- 00:34:45,240 --> 00:34:51,640
- quite responsible for some of Evelyn’s
- situation and for other things. She's--
- 598
- 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,280
- She’s furious with him a lot.
- 599
- 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:10,880
- -[Gwen] Wow!
- -[Orlando] Oh, wow!
- 600
- 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:12,320
- -Nice!
- -[Andreas] Wow! Look at that!
- 601
- 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:14,520
- That’s pretty cool.
- 602
- 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:21,040
- I think this is a photo op.
- 603
- 00:35:22,720 --> 00:35:24,280
- -[Gwen] Water shoot.
- -[Orlando] Yeah.
- 604
- 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:25,600
- [Andreas] Let's turn around.
- 605
- 00:35:25,720 --> 00:35:27,920
- -[Gwen] Think the boys climbed up there?
- -[Andreas] Ready.
- 606
- 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:31,120
- [scoffs]
- 607
- 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:35,280
- [camera clicks]
- 608
- 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:41,720
- [Gwen] Happy birthday
- to our beautiful brother, Evelyn.
- 609
- 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:43,640
- He would have been 35 today,
- 610
- 00:35:43,720 --> 00:35:47,440
- but lost his battle with schizophrenia
- and ended his own life 13 years ago.
- 611
- 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:51,000
- In some ways, it feels like an age away,
- and in others, like only yesterday.
- 612
- 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,760
- In his memory, Orlando, Robin and I
- have been walking across the UK
- 613
- 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,640
- visiting places where we spent time
- together as kids and sharing a grief
- 614
- 00:35:57,720 --> 00:36:00,480
- that up to this point we’ve been unable
- to talk about.
- 615
- 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,360
- If you knew Evelyn,
- you’ll remember his infectious laughter,
- 616
- 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:05,440
- huge smile and all-embracing hugs.
- 617
- 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:07,640
- We miss him so much.
- 618
- 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,000
- We absolutely need to keep talking about
- mental illness.
- 619
- 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:12,360
- We need to fight the stigma,
- 620
- 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,640
- question why suicide remains the biggest
- killer of young men in this country,
- 621
- 00:36:15,720 --> 00:36:18,520
- and push for better care
- from our mental health services.
- 622
- 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:22,480
- [Orlando] I think it’s lovely.
- 623
- 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:24,440
- I don’t think you need to change
- a single thing.
- 624
- 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,200
- I’m not asking you
- to tell me to change anything.
- 625
- 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,720
- I just wanted to listen to it.
- 626
- 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:30,760
- I wouldn't...
- 627
- 00:36:31,240 --> 00:36:32,360
- [Orlando] It’s great.
- 628
- 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,080
- [panting]
- 629
- 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,080
- I definitely do not remember
- this walk, Orlando.
- 630
- 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:40,840
- You did it, though.
- 631
- 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:42,440
- -Well--
- -How could you not remember?
- 632
- 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:44,720
- No. Again, it’s so beautiful,
- 633
- 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:46,880
- -I think I'd remember it.
- -It'll stay with me for life.
- 634
- 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:48,920
- I’ve never been around a lake like this.
- 635
- 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,320
- [birds chirping]
- 636
- 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:56,800
- [Gwen singing]
- 637
- 00:36:58,040 --> 00:36:59,840
- You know, there was...
- 638
- 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:03,880
- I’ve always felt that...
- 639
- 00:37:04,720 --> 00:37:05,960
- there’s three...
- 640
- 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:10,080
- days and three moments,
- or three days in the year...
- 641
- 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,160
- that I’ve always dreaded,
- 642
- 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:15,320
- and...
- 643
- 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:17,000
- They are?
- 644
- 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:19,640
- The anniversary of Evelyn’s death.
- 645
- 00:37:19,720 --> 00:37:22,160
- -Yes.
- -The second of September. Yeah.
- 646
- 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,760
- Um... It’s not really the day,
- but the moment that...
- 647
- 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,520
- you give a toast on Christmas Eve...
- 648
- 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,520
- -[Andreas inhales sharply]
- -...towards E.
- 649
- 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:33,880
- Not dreaded--
- 650
- 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,400
- You dreaded it
- because you were confronted with it.
- 651
- 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,840
- -Exactly.
- -You’ve been running away from it
- 652
- 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,160
- for 17 years.
- 653
- 00:37:41,240 --> 00:37:43,880
- I know, and then today is the other day.
- 654
- 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:45,720
- -The birthday?
- -Yeah.
- 655
- 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:46,640
- [sniffs]
- 656
- 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:49,240
- I don’t feel that today, though.
- 657
- 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,680
- You feel you’ve actually now...
- [clears throat]
- 658
- 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,360
- ...banned the ghost - exorcised?
- 659
- 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:55,840
- [stutters] I don’t know about that.
- 660
- 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:59,560
- -I didn’t wake up this morning feeling--
- -On the way perhaps.
- 661
- 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:00,680
- I didn’t even--
- 662
- 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,320
- Last night, I didn’t even think about
- today being...
- 663
- 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:05,280
- a tough day actually.
- 664
- 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:06,560
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 665
- 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,000
- [dog barking]
- 666
- 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:11,720
- [Andreas] Are we having
- an ice cream break?
- 667
- 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:13,560
- Evelyn would have loved that.
- 668
- 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:14,560
- [ducks quacking]
- 669
- 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:16,800
- -[Johanna] Was he an ice cream man?
- -[Andreas] I’m sure he was.
- 670
- 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:18,320
- [Gwen] Do you wanna choose a single cone?
- 671
- 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:21,920
- -A flake?
- -[man] Hi. How are we doing?
- 672
- 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:22,840
- Good.
- 673
- 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:24,520
- What have you got, then?
- 674
- 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:27,200
- Everything that’s on the menu
- is down there.
- 675
- 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,000
- It’s all vanilla, the ice cream.
- 676
- 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:31,040
- Silly thing.
- 677
- 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:32,320
- I made a friend.
- 678
- 00:38:33,240 --> 00:38:35,000
- I think we should take her with us.
- 679
- 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:37,120
- Come here, chick.
- 680
- 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:39,200
- -[camera clicks]
- -Lovely.
- 681
- 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:41,560
- We're walking in memory of our brother...
- 682
- 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:43,040
- -Oh, right.
- -...who...
- 683
- 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:44,560
- who took his own life...
- 684
- 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:46,120
- -Oh.
- -...thirteen years ago.
- 685
- 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:47,680
- -Oh, wow.
- -And...
- 686
- 00:38:48,720 --> 00:38:51,600
- We don’t really talk about it, and we
- haven’t talked about it for a long time,
- 687
- 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:56,000
- but this is sort of a journey
- to do that and explore.
- 688
- 00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,720
- It’s a really, really hard one
- to get over that.
- 689
- 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,440
- I have personal experience myself.
- 690
- 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,760
- My mother went four years ago in December.
- 691
- 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,480
- Oh, I’m so sorry.
- 692
- 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:09,080
- Yeah. No, I understand where you’re
- coming from, like, really.
- 693
- 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:16,280
- It just leaves you with no answers
- or anything, you know?
- 694
- 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:17,560
- It's a...
- 695
- 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:20,960
- Are you guys talking about it?
- 696
- 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:24,440
- Oh, yeah. Me and my sister are always
- open to talk about it.
- 697
- 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,160
- It’s not shunned away
- or anything along those lines.
- 698
- 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,280
- We're just as proud of her. You know?
- 699
- 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,040
- -Brilliant.
- -So...
- 700
- 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:33,160
- She thought nobody liked her.
- 701
- 00:39:33,720 --> 00:39:34,920
- Frickin' hard, isn't it?
- 702
- 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,320
- -It’s really hard.
- -Yeah.
- 703
- 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:41,520
- [indistinct chatter]
- 704
- 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:45,160
- So, I went out with my sister
- last Tuesday to celebrate her life,
- 705
- 00:39:45,240 --> 00:39:46,640
- and we're doing that every year.
- 706
- 00:39:46,720 --> 00:39:48,280
- Last Tuesday, it was the 22nd,
- 707
- 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,720
- -and that was the day that she went.
- -Right.
- 708
- 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,400
- So, we’ve decided that we're going
- to do that every year.
- 709
- 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,040
- -We started that last year...
- -Brilliant.
- 710
- 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,040
- ...and that’s what we're gonna do,
- celebrate her life...
- 711
- 00:39:57,760 --> 00:39:59,360
- when it ended, unfortunately.
- 712
- 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,440
- [chickens clucking]
- 713
- 00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:03,920
- -I think that’s a great idea.
- -Yeah.
- 714
- 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:07,000
- It’s just an illness, and it's...
- 715
- 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,200
- Talking about it is better than anything.
- 716
- 00:40:10,240 --> 00:40:11,920
- -It was really nice to meet you.
- -Likewise.
- 717
- 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,600
- -[Gwen] What was your mom called?
- -Amanda.
- 718
- 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:16,480
- -[Gwen] Amanda.
- -Our brother was called Evelyn.
- 719
- 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:18,040
- Today is actually his birthday.
- 720
- 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:19,040
- [man] Oh, wow.
- 721
- 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:20,520
- I'm Orlando's sister. I'm Gwennie.
- 722
- 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,120
- -Yeah.
- -What’s your name?
- 723
- 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:23,600
- -John.
- -John.
- 724
- 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,200
- Thanks for sharing, John.
- 725
- 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,560
- But I hope all goes well for you.
- 726
- 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:28,520
- Thanks, John.
- 727
- 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:30,120
- Good on you guys.
- 728
- 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:32,080
- -Thanks, mate.
- -Take care.
- 729
- 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:33,360
- Enjoy the rest of your day.
- 730
- 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:34,760
- [Orlando] Cheers.
- 731
- 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:38,120
- [Andreas] Orlando, amazing that you could
- tell him that immediately.
- 732
- 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:39,720
- You see, I had...
- 733
- 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,400
- I would have had huge hesitation
- to tell this man...
- 734
- 00:40:44,240 --> 00:40:47,720
- [Gwen] Well, Orlando hesitated.
- It was a hesitation when we started...
- 735
- 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:49,640
- to say that.
- 736
- 00:40:49,720 --> 00:40:52,360
- [Andreas] I would have said
- it’s a family film and left it at that,
- 737
- 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:53,720
- but brilliant for you.
- 738
- 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:57,080
- [Gwen] Hey, put that bowl somewhere else.
- 739
- 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:58,880
- [Johanna humming]
- 740
- 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:06,760
- [Andreas] Gwennie, I got messages today
- from my family remembering Evelyn,
- 741
- 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:08,560
- which has actually never happened.
- 742
- 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:09,800
- [country music playing]
- 743
- 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:11,200
- -You know?
- -But that’s because--
- 744
- 00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:12,960
- Do they know what you’re doing right now?
- 745
- 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,360
- Well, my sister does,
- but my brothers don’t.
- 746
- 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,960
- I think this is a result really.
- 747
- 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:21,800
- [Johanna] Have you spoken to Beta?
- 748
- 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:23,040
- -We tried to call her.
- -[Johanna] Today?
- 749
- 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:24,880
- -No. I haven’t.
- -[Orlando] I’m calling her now.
- 750
- 00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,360
- I tried about 20 minutes ago,
- and she didn’t answer.
- 751
- 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,360
- -[Johanna] Try the landline then.
- -[Robin] Mom?
- 752
- 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:31,480
- Hi.
- 753
- 00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:32,520
- How are you?
- 754
- 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:34,360
- Oh, nice.
- 755
- 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:35,880
- [Orlando]
- Put it on speaker so we can all hear.
- 756
- 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,040
- [Robin] Mom, I’m just gonna
- put you on speaker phone.
- 757
- 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,480
- -[Orlando] We’re all here...
- -[Robin laughs]
- 758
- 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,880
- [Orlando] Dad, Jo, Gwennie, Robin.
- 759
- 00:41:43,720 --> 00:41:45,640
- [Orlando] We’re phoning
- to send you lots of love.
- 760

- [Robin] Mom, you’re on loud speaker.
- 761
- 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:48,640

- -Yes.
- 764
- 00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,320
- <i>Well, it’s been Evelyn’s day, hasn’t it?</i>
- 765
- 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:59,280
- <i>Thinking of Evelyn in my mind,</i>
- <i>and I said happy birthday to him,</i>
- 766
- 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,920
- <i>outside Westcroft moor, and then I said,</i>

- <i>“I don’t know what else I could have done</i>
- <i>more for you, Evelyn.</i>

- <i>And, for a minute,</i>
- 770
- 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:15,680

- <i>Where are you in Cumbria?</i>
- 772
- 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:21,880
- [Orlando] We’re near Penrith,
- and we’re cooking a barbecue.
- 773

- We've got a table full of candles,

- -Cheers.
- 797
- 00:43:05,720 --> 00:43:07,240
- That was a classic sign off.
- 798
- 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:08,680
- [laughs]
- 799
- 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,640
- I’ve always acknowledged the enormous...
- 800
- 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,600
- sacrifice she made for you,
- and, you know, the...
- 801
- 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,920
- the incredible love she’s been able
- to give to you, which is--
- 802
- 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,520
- It’s fantastic, and I’ve always
- acknowledged that
- 803
- 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,000
- and, um...
- 804
- 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,400
- and what a wonderful mother she is,
- you know.
- 805
- 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,240
- It just was for us impossible
- to live together,
- 806
- 00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:35,040
- and, in many ways, our marriage failed.
- 807
- 00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:41,840
- You know, it did not only set <i>her </i>free,
- but it set <i>me </i>free as well
- 808
- 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,840
- because we're just--
- We were so incompatible.
- 809
- 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:46,280
- [fly buzzing]
- 810
- 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:49,680
- [Orlando] Well, they didn’t speak for--
- for what?
- 811
- 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:55,640
- For... Since... From the age of when I was
- eight to pretty much to Evelyn’s death.
- 812
- 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:58,440
- I mean, you spoke a little bit
- when he was ill,
- 813
- 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:01,440
- but you didn’t really speak.
- You communicated with letters.
- 814
- 00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:03,200
- -And then--
- -[Gwen] Or through us.
- 815
- 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:04,280
- Or through us.
- 816
- 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:08,280
- And then Evelyn dying, and then, you know,
- 817
- 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,200
- we spent two Christmases together,
- didn’t we? All of us.
- 818
- 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:13,200
- -And then I--
- -[Andreas] Yeah, we did that.
- 819
- 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:14,960
- That doesn’t mean we talked.
- It just meant--
- 820
- 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:16,760
- -[Orlando] Well, whatever.
- -Things were moved
- 821
- 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:18,920
- -onto a slightly more civilized level.
- -[Orlando] Sure.
- 822
- 00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:23,320
- I would then say
- it's faded away a bit since then.
- 823
- 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:25,160
- That’s fine.
- 824
- 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:27,920
- [melancholic music playing]
- 825
- 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:39,440
- [Andreas panting]
- 826
- 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:56,080
- I’m getting slowly wet from the outside
- and wet from the inside.
- 827
- 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:00,560
- [panting]
- 828
- 00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:03,960
- -[Robin] What's happening on the inside?
- -[sighs] What?
- 829
- 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:05,840
- [Gwen chuckles] What's happening
- on the inside?
- 830
- 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,280
- [Andreas and Robin laugh]
- 831
- 00:45:09,720 --> 00:45:11,120
- [Gwen] He had an accident.
- 832
- 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:13,840
- [Gwen chuckles]
- 833
- 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:14,880
- Stop it.
- 834
- 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:18,200
- -[Gwen sniffs and chuckles]
- -Give more respect, please.
- 835
- 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:22,920
- [Robin panting]
- 836
- 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:26,320
- [bird hooting]
- 837
- 00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:35,480
- [Orlando] Who told you guys, then?
- 838
- 00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:38,000
- [Andreas] Beta called me.
- 839
- 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:41,080
- [exhales]
- 840
- 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,480
- [panting]
- 841
- 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:47,880
- I’ll tell you tonight.
- 842
- 00:45:49,240 --> 00:45:50,120
- [Gwen] No, do it now
- 843
- 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:53,320
- because I think I’m not
- gonna wanna revisit this later on.
- 844
- 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:54,240
- You don’t.
- 845
- 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:56,960
- [Gwen] Have at it. While we’re doing this,
- we might as well just...
- 846
- 00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:58,640
- let it all out.
- 847
- 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:00,920
- Dad... I don’t know.
- 848
- 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:07,040
- Well...
- 849
- 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:11,800
- [panting]
- 850
- 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:18,280
- I got a call from Beta about three o’clock
- in the afternoon, four o’clock maybe...
- 851
- 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,360
- [vehicle approaching]
- 852
- 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,000
- ...and it was a call I’ve been dreading.
- 853
- 00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:41,080
- When I saw her number on the display,
- I had a feeling.
- 854
- 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,560
- I knew what it was, and I’d spoken
- to Evelyn the night before.
- 855
- 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,680
- I’d spoken to Gwennie the same morning,
- 856
- 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,560
- and I asked Gwennie,
- I asked you, "Gwennie, where’s Evelyn?”
- 857
- 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:51,920
- And you said, “Oh, he’s not in his room.”
- 858
- 00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,640
- I said, “Where is he?”
- “He’s probably with a friend.”
- 859
- 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:56,920
- You know?
- 860
- 00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:01,480
- I asked her to go to his room and check,
- and he wasn’t there.
- 861
- 00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,000
- And then you said,
- “Oh, he’s probably with a friend.”
- 862
- 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:07,160
- Anyway, I didn’t say anything.
- I didn’t say "go and check the garden."
- 863
- 00:47:07,240 --> 00:47:08,440
- Thank goodness.
- 864
- 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:09,800
- Um...
- 865
- 00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:13,960
- Anyway, I got that call from Beta at
- three or four o’clock in the afternoon,
- 866
- 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:15,120
- and she said,
- 867
- 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:17,040
- “I’ve lost my baby.”
- 868
- 00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:20,680
- That’s what she said.
- And I immediately thought...
- 869
- 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,760
- I thought about Robin... at that moment.
- 870
- 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:25,120
- [chuckles] Really. [sniffs]
- 871
- 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:28,320
- Not about Evelyn,
- for about a second or two,
- 872
- 00:47:29,240 --> 00:47:31,680
- and then she told me everything.
- 873
- 00:47:32,720 --> 00:47:34,400
- It was grim. That was grim.
- 874
- 00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:40,440
- And I was working in somebody else’s
- house,
- 875
- 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:43,640
- so you have to pull yourself
- together somehow.
- 876
- 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:47,520
- Thank goodness Jo was there and, um...
- 877
- 00:47:48,720 --> 00:47:52,000
- So I went outside in the garden
- and cried for half an hour.
- 878
- 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:55,720
- I think I spoke to Beta. I spoke to you
- as well again during that time.
- 879
- 00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:57,760
- -I don't remember that.
- -Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
- 880
- 00:47:58,200 --> 00:47:59,360
- And then...
- 881
- 00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:03,520
- Um... I just went back to work,
- 882
- 00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:08,280
- and I finished what I had to do.
- 883
- 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:11,640
- Also so grateful that I could do that.
- 884
- 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:14,200
- [melancholic piano music playing]
- 885
- 00:48:17,240 --> 00:48:19,240
- [thunder rumbling]
- 886
- 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:31,560
- Gwennie, Robin, Gwennie.
- 887
- 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:33,120
- [camera clicks]
- 888
- 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,320
- [Andreas]
- It is absolutely gorgeous, isn’t it?
- 889
- 00:48:44,240 --> 00:48:46,360
- [Orlando] It’s the legacy of what happened
- 890
- 00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:49,360
- and how all of our relationships
- have been fractured.
- 891
- 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:54,320
- His presence has such an influence
- on how my family interacts.
- 892
- 00:48:55,240 --> 00:49:00,680
- And if one part of this walk is that we
- change our relationship with our brother,
- 893
- 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:04,440
- that would obviously be great,
- but as a secondary thing,
- 894
- 00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:09,360
- if we can mend some of the wounds
- in our own relationships,
- 895
- 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:11,760
- that would be fantastic.
- 896
- 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:15,360
- [wind blowing]
- 897
- 00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:26,840
- [raindrops]
- 898
- 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:29,600
- [Orlando] Here’s the thing, right.
- 899
- 00:49:30,720 --> 00:49:34,640
- I spent 13 years not thinking about E.
- 900
- 00:49:34,720 --> 00:49:35,560
- [man] Mm-hmm.
- 901
- 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:37,800
- And I’ve forgotten-- It’s horrible,
- 902
- 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:41,600
- and I’ve forgotten so many stories
- and so many... things.
- 903
- 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:43,400
- Um...
- 904
- 00:49:45,240 --> 00:49:47,320
- So it’s kind of wonderful just to listen.
- 905
- 00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:49,040
- How do you not think about it?
- 906
- 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:51,400
- [stutters] I mean,
- I’m not challenging you.
- 907
- 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:53,200
- Leon, how long have we known each other,
- 908
- 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:55,400
- and how often have we
- spoken about E together?
- 909
- 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:56,360
- Oh...
- 910
- 00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:58,920
- I would say I tried. [chuckles]
- I tried and...
- 911
- 00:50:00,240 --> 00:50:02,360
- your-- your reaction was like...
- 912
- 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:06,760
- I don’t know. Almost like how you
- ask your parent something,
- 913
- 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:09,120
- and you know you shouldn’t be asking it.
- They're like, "No.
- 914
- 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:11,200
- Enough of that, okay?"
- 915
- 00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,200
- I'm not going to say that ever again.
- [chuckles]
- 916
- 00:50:15,720 --> 00:50:17,040
- [Leon] Evelyn was my best friend.
- 917
- 00:50:17,720 --> 00:50:19,360
- Evelyn was my little brother.
- 918
- 00:50:20,240 --> 00:50:21,080
- Um...
- 919
- 00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:26,440
- And Evelyn, he was my comrade.
- 920
- 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:28,680
- -Hi.
- -[woman] Welcome to (inaudible)...
- 921
- 00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:30,240
- Thank you very much.
- 922
- 00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:31,240
- It’s lovely.
- 923
- 00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:32,320
- [chuckling]
- 924
- 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:33,720
- How are you doing?
- 925
- 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:35,240
- Fine.
- 926
- 00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:36,920
- Are you taking photographs?
- 927
- 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:38,880
- -We’re walking.
- -Are you?
- 928
- 00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:42,600
- Yeah, from... Well, we started
- just outside Aviemore,
- 929
- 00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:44,200
- -in memory of our--
- -Just a wee stroll, then.
- 930
- 00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:45,560
- -Just a stroll.
- -Yeah.
- 931
- 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:47,440
- -[woman laughs]
- -Just a gentle stroll.
- 932
- 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:49,320
- -In all our gear.
- -In memory of what?
- 933
- 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:52,600
- Yeah. We’re doing it
- in memory of our brother.
- 934
- 00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:53,920
- Uh-huh. Wow.
- 935
- 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:57,360
- We haven’t-- Its been almost 13 years,
- 936
- 00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:01,200
- and we realized that none of us
- really talked about what happened, so...
- 937
- 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:02,560
- Our brother...
- 938
- 00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:04,840
- Those are his two best friends.
- 939
- 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:06,920
- -He took his own life.
- -[woman 2] Oh.
- 940
- 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:09,680
- [woman 1] Oh. Well, that’s
- a brilliant thing to do for him.
- 941
- 00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,240
- [woman 2] Yeah. Yeah.
- 942
- 00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,920
- -Our dad passed away.
- -We’re quite sad. Our dad just died.
- 943
- 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:15,840
- -Today!
- -Today!
- 944
- 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:17,840
- We couldn't bear to be there,
- so we came out.
- 945
- 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:19,480
- -Oh, I’m sorry.
- -I’m sorry.
- 946
- 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:22,280
- But he was 92, so it’s different.
- 947
- 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:24,000
- -Yeah.
- -Still...
- 948
- 00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:25,760
- I wanna climb up Benlevy for him.
- 949
- 00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:27,640
- -[woman 2] This one.
- -[Orlando] The one in the mist?
- 950
- 00:51:27,720 --> 00:51:29,280
- [woman 1] There’s a bottle of whiskey
- at the top.
- 951
- 00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:32,640
- My dad used to go up
- to the mountain rescue.
- 952
- 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,760
- And he knows someone from it,
- so he used to go up.
- 953
- 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,800
- One time he went up, anyway, and he found
- the whiskey and had a little bup.
- 954
- 00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,040
- -Behind a bush.
- -It's a hidden whiskey.
- 955
- 00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:45,280
- -We should head up there as well.
- -We should go and look for the bottle.
- 956
- 00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:46,680
- -It's very well hidden.
- -Very.
- 957
- 00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:48,120
- Give me the coordinates.
- 958
- 00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:51,360
- -Here’s to your father.
- -You guys, too.
- 959
- 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:52,880
- To your brother. Yeah.
- 960
- 00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:54,640
- -What was his name?
- -Evelyn.
- 961
- 00:51:54,720 --> 00:51:56,640
- -Okay, here’s to Evelyn.
- -Thank you.
- 962
- 00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:01,880
- [Robin] Say cheese!
- 963
- 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:03,880
- -Cheese!
- -Cheese!
- 964
- 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:14,840
- A lot of time I spent
- when I was like 13 or 14 was when...
- 965
- 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:17,360
- after my Dad committed suicide,
- 966
- 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:20,480
- so I spent a lot of time
- in the sort of family with them and...
- 967
- 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:24,680
- became a second home,
- really, I guess, in that sense.
- 968
- 00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:29,360
- So, I wasn’t sure if it was half speaking
- about that or half asking of how...
- 969
- 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:33,640
- Because I think them as a family has
- really sort of helped me
- 970
- 00:52:33,720 --> 00:52:35,000
- and a real sort of...
- 971
- 00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:38,520
- just sort of a way
- to get away from what’s going on.
- 972
- 00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:40,600
- [melancholic piano music playing]
- 973
- 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:07,440
- Yeah!
- 974
- 00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:10,160
- Woo!
- 975
- 00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:12,960
- Woo! Uh!
- 976
- 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:14,920
- [chuckles]
- 977
- 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:20,880
- [Orlando] Is Gwennie still asleep?
- 978
- 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:22,480
- Mm-hmm.
- 979
- 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:23,520
- [Orlando] Is she okay?
- 980
- 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:24,440
- Mm-hmm.
- 981
- 00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:29,000
- -[Robin] But we found something out.
- -[Orlando] What?
- 982
- 00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,080
- You were sleeping on about three...
- [laughing]
- 983
- 00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:36,080
- Sleeping on about three sleeping bags
- and two mats,
- 984
- 00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:40,680
- and you left me and Gwennie
- to sleep on these dodgy, little yoga mats.
- 985
- 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:41,840
- [all laugh]
- 986
- 00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:46,200
- It was like-- He was like a prince
- in that tent. A little prince.
- 987
- 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:47,120
- [sniffs]
- 988
- 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:53,600
- -[Leon] We need to get you too.
- -[camera clicks]
- 989
- 00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:56,000
- [Orlando] There's already plenty of me.
- 990
- 00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:58,360
- Not in here.
- 991
- 00:53:58,840 --> 00:53:59,960
- You can never have too much.
- 992
- 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:01,800
- [Orlando] This way,
- I get to hide behind the camera...
- 993
- 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,920
- -No, that's not the point. No.
- -...and ask the questions. [laughs]
- 994
- 00:54:08,720 --> 00:54:10,280
- [Leon] How are you coping so far?
- 995
- 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:24,520
- I want you to tell me some memories today
- that make me laugh.
- 996
- 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:27,120
- I wanna hear funny things, Leon.
- 997
- 00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:29,240
- I've got loads of those.
- Don't worry about that.
- 998
- 00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:30,160
- [chuckles]
- 999
- 00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:33,240
- [Orlando]
- Some happy ones when things were better.
- 1000
- 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:34,640
- [kids laughing]
- 1001
- 00:54:34,720 --> 00:54:36,720
- [gentle music playing]
- 1002
- 00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:46,040
- [clicks tongue twice]
- 1003
- 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,000
- Nice walk. Didn’t see anything.
- 1004
- 00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:50,880
- [sniffs] Nice and windy.
- 1005
- 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,000
- It's good. I feel good.
- 1006
- 00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:57,880
- [exhales]
- 1007
- 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:00,760
- [laughs]
- 1008
- 00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:05,880
- [man] <i>Give us a smile, man, and then go.</i>
- 1009
- 00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:15,280
- [friends cheering] Yeah!
- 1010
- 00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:17,400
- [Gwen] <i>It's the epitome of cool.</i>
- 1011
- 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:20,640
- You know, you guys going off
- and skating at South Bank.
- 1012
- 00:55:20,720 --> 00:55:23,640
- And that’s why I started rollerblading.
- I wanted to-- [chuckles]
- 1013
- 00:55:23,720 --> 00:55:26,360
- -Wanted to keep up.
- -Wanted to be able to join in
- 1014
- 00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:31,160
- and hang out at the South Bank
- with the cool boys.
- 1015
- 00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:36,360
- You know, I was always
- really competitive with E.
- 1016
- 00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:38,160
- [Jack] Yeah, I remember.
- 1017
- 00:55:38,240 --> 00:55:40,680
- -Skateboarding was the one thing I just--
- -[Jack] You couldn’t keep up.
- 1018
- 00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:42,160
- I could never keep up with him on.
- 1019
- 00:55:42,240 --> 00:55:45,440
- You got that silly board
- with the feet straps on, didn't you?
- 1020
- 00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:49,600
- -[Orlando] Oh, wow!
- -[Gwen] Oh, this is like...
- 1021
- 00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:52,800
- Payoff is quick for this one, isn’t it?
- 1022
- 00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:56,520
- [Jack] Guys. [whistles]
- 1023
- 00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:58,160
- [camera clicks]
- 1024
- 00:55:59,960 --> 00:56:02,320
- -[Orlando] Why is he striding ahead?
- -[Jack] I'm not sure.
- 1025
- 00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:03,240
- [sniffs]
- 1026
- 00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:06,840
- -Do you talk much about your dad, Jack?
- -[sighs] Ah...
- 1027
- 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:09,040
- [huffs] At times.
- 1028
- 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:12,160
- More than happy to sort of
- talk about it and stuff. I never...
- 1029
- 00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:15,520
- bring it to the table,
- but if someone asks,
- 1030
- 00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:17,600
- then I’d happily sort of chat and stuff.
- 1031
- 00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:20,560
- I’ve done it before when I've spoken,
- where I’ve said stuff
- 1032
- 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,240
- and sometimes it completely throws people.
- You know what I mean?
- 1033
- 00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:26,680
- I guess I'm almost feeling bad for them.
- 1034
- 00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:29,680
- I don't want to make people feel
- uncomfortable sometimes
- 1035
- 00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:31,120
- in situations and stuff.
- 1036
- 00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:34,520
- -That’s exactly how I've often felt.
- -Yeah.
- 1037
- 00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:38,840
- There's a lot of stuff that I've buried
- for years.
- 1038
- 00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:40,600
- Maybe not really even properly...
- 1039
- 00:56:42,240 --> 00:56:43,880
- really thought about them
- 1040
- 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:46,680
- or sort of finalizing that sort of stuff.
- 1041
- 00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:50,920
- I don't think you will ever really
- finalize a sort of thing like this.
- 1042
- 00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:55,840
- I think you just grow to understand
- bits more, or just grow to sort of like...
- 1043
- 00:56:57,040 --> 00:56:57,880
- Just...
- 1044
- 00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:04,360
- -I know. You’re right. There’s never--
- -[Jack] There’s no real finality to it.
- 1045
- 00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:09,760
- I think you just grow to sort of live with
- it and deal with it and sort of let it be.
- 1046
- 00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:14,320
- I think we all felt particularly...
- 1047
- 00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:16,760
- sorry for you.
- 1048
- 00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:23,200
- [huffs]
- 1049
- 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:28,000
- Sorry is the wrong word, Jack.
- I don’t know, but...
- 1050
- 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,520
- It’s bad enough to have to deal with
- these things once, right?
- 1051
- 00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:35,680
- [chuckles]
- 1052
- 00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:49,760
- [fly buzzing]
- 1053
- 00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:55,280
- Isn't it crazy that we had an anniversary
- at ten years,
- 1054
- 00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:59,680
- and yet still it was like it’s ten years,
- we should mark--
- 1055
- 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:01,520
- -We should do something.
- -We should mark this,
- 1056
- 00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:03,960
- but yet none of us talked about it still.
- 1057
- 00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:05,680
- [Orlando sighs]
- 1058
- 00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:12,440
- -There comes a time--
- -[Robin] We did a-- There was a marking.
- 1059
- 00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:14,440
- [Gwen] Yeah, there was a marking.
- 1060
- 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:16,240
- I think you're taking a liberty, you know.
- 1061
- 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:18,440
- Why?
- 1062
- 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:20,200
- Because you’re doing what you do,
- 1063
- 00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:24,520
- and you’re asking the questions,
- so you don’t have to talk.
- 1064
- 00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:26,080
- Now, you have to talk.
- 1065
- 00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:27,600
- [panting]
- 1066
- 00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:29,280
- Am I wrong?
- 1067
- 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:32,280
- I was listening to you behind me.
- [chuckles]
- 1068
- 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:33,680
- I was listening to you.
- 1069
- 00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:34,720
- [fly buzzing]
- 1070
- 00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:38,080
- [Leon] I've probably spent more time
- with Orlando than most other people,
- 1071
- 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:40,200
- and, you know,
- 1072
- 00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:43,240
- I can always see when he’s trying to hide.
- 1073
- 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:46,880
- He’s trying to hide behind
- asking questions and stuff.
- 1074
- 00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:48,840
- And it kind of amuses me.
- 1075
- 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:52,280
- Like, do you actually think I can’t see
- what you’re trying to do?
- 1076
- 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:55,600
- I was just letting him do it
- most of the time until this...
- 1077
- 00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:57,000
- until now because...
- 1078
- 00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:00,560
- I was like, you asked for this, so...
- 1079
- 00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:02,960
- -[Leon] I feel almost...
- -[water flowing]
- 1080
- 00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:06,920
- How can you feel you have
- the right to tell other people’s stories
- 1081
- 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:11,480
- and go so deep into their pain,
- 1082
- 00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:13,320
- but...
- 1083
- 00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:16,480
- Almost kind of refusing to do it.
- 1084
- 00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:20,800
- -I mean, you’re not refusing now.
- -Who am I going to talk to?
- 1085
- 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:26,560
- I mean... No, because... No.
- I’m serious about that. I mean...
- 1086
- 00:59:26,640 --> 00:59:27,880
- [birds screeching]
- 1087
- 00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:31,840
- My brother and sister didn’t wanna deal
- with this at all, just like me,
- 1088
- 00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:33,560
- so I don’t talk to them.
- 1089
- 00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:35,880
- And-- I--
- 1090
- 00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:39,040
- I don’t know. You know...
- [stutters] I know how much...
- 1091
- 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:42,560
- I don’t know. I didn't wanna ever
- get into it with my mom and dad.
- 1092
- 00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:48,160
- I don’t know. You know,
- sometimes it feels like such a burden
- 1093
- 00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:50,120
- to even put on someone else anyway.
- 1094
- 00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:53,440
- Yeah, but when a burden’s shared...
- 1095
- 00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:57,560
- Yeah, but then, Leon,
- 1096
- 00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:00,200
- it’s like opening up a box.
- 1097
- 01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:05,880
- Life’s hard anyway. We all know that.
- 1098
- 01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:08,400
- -I know, but--
- -And if you can...
- 1099
- 01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:09,880
- I mean, you know--
- 1100
- 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,880
- Yeah, I’m aware that--
- I always thought at some point...
- 1101
- 01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:16,920
- everything would come back out again.
- 1102
- 01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:20,400
- -So, you met in an unplanned way, right?
- -Yeah.
- 1103
- 01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:23,280
- -[Leon] We come from other places.
- -Until that day.
- 1104
- 01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:27,880
- You, like, come from, like,
- super privilege.
- 1105
- 01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:29,160
- -And--
- -Sure.
- 1106
- 01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:31,240
- Obviously, that doesn’t--
- 1107
- 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:34,600
- I mean, everyone’s pain experiences
- are relative, but...
- 1108
- 01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:38,800
- the people that you’ve told stories about,
- 1109
- 01:00:39,320 --> 01:00:41,040
- they were on the far end of the...
- 1110
- 01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:43,520
- the opposite end of the scale.
- 1111
- 01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:45,520
- And, like you say, life is hard.
- 1112
- 01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:50,240
- That's hard for them,
- but you still dig and tell their story.
- 1113
- 01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:56,240
- I think their options are...
- 1114
- 01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:00,600
- They have a lot less options than you.
- 1115
- 01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:01,960
- [panting]
- 1116
- 01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:04,680
- I think from what I know of you,
- 1117
- 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:07,720
- because you’re someone
- who just gets on with things.
- 1118
- 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:09,760
- And it's a...
- 1119
- 01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:11,640
- I guess a touch of that...
- 1120
- 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:14,360
- stiff upper lip,
- 1121
- 01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:17,800
- man up, puff your chest out
- and just get on with it,
- 1122
- 01:01:18,320 --> 01:01:20,360
- but that’s kind of a...
- 1123
- 01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:22,880
- outdated view of...
- 1124
- 01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:25,720
- masculinity, I guess.
- 1125
- 01:01:26,120 --> 01:01:27,320
- And...
- 1126
- 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:30,160
- to see someone like you,
- 1127
- 01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:33,880
- as successful as you are,
- being open and vulnerable,
- 1128
- 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:37,640
- that might make all the difference
- to someone watching this...
- 1129
- 01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:41,640
- who hasn’t felt able to talk to anyone
- about how they’re feeling
- 1130
- 01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:44,840
- because, you know,
- for fear of being seen as weak.
- 1131
- 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:48,640
- [birds screeching]
- 1132
- 01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:50,720
- [indistinct chatter]
- 1133
- 01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:53,480
- [Orlando] You know, I’m not scared
- about feeling weak
- 1134
- 01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:55,080
- in front of anyone, other than...
- 1135
- 01:01:56,440 --> 01:01:57,560
- my brother and sister.
- 1136
- 01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:03,920
- I don’t care if you think I'm weak.
- 1137
- 01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:06,320
- [Leon] I don’t think you’re weak.
- I don’t think you’re weak at all.
- 1138
- 01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:07,800
- But I’m not-- That’s not...
- 1139
- 01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:12,120
- That’s not the--
- That's not my issue.
- 1140
- 01:02:14,520 --> 01:02:18,120
- I don’t think they’d see it as weakness.
- I think they’d see it as a shared emotion.
- 1141
- 01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:20,040
- They’re not alone in feeling that way.
- 1142
- 01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:23,840
- If big brother feels that way,
- maybe it’s okay for me to feel that way.
- 1143
- 01:02:26,320 --> 01:02:30,080
- Yeah. I mean, listen, logically,
- I totally agree with you. It’s just...
- 1144
- 01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:36,240
- Every part of my body, even having
- this conversation with you, is so tense.
- 1145
- 01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:38,480
- When this is over,
- 1146
- 01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:41,040
- you know, like the way you thought
- Gwennie would regret it
- 1147
- 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:42,800
- if she hadn’t come and slept in the tent.
- 1148
- 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:45,280
- You’re gonna kick yourself.
- 1149
- 01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:49,120
- And how I think you’re going to feel
- if you don’t...
- 1150
- 01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:52,960
- open up completely.
- How are you going to feel later on?
- 1151
- 01:02:56,040 --> 01:02:59,360
- Because later on, everyone’s going
- to go back to their lives
- 1152
- 01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:00,360
- and do what they do.
- 1153
- 01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:02,640
- I don’t even know
- what opening up completely is.
- 1154
- 01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:04,760
- You’re saying that to me.
- 1155
- 01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:08,920
- I’m trying to talk about this, and...
- 1156
- 01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:13,560
- What does that even look like
- from your point of view?
- 1157
- 01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:14,960
- Like, what would I even say?
- 1158
- 01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:18,160
- Don’t pick your words so carefully. Just
- speak and whatever comes out, comes out.
- 1159
- 01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:22,200
- That’s my whole point.
- It’s just life is meant to be a struggle.
- 1160
- 01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,920
- It’s almost like, because it's hard,
- I'd rather not do it.
- 1161
- 01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:30,360
- Because it's hard is more reason to do it.
- 1162
- 01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:33,080
- Then it becomes easier and easier.
- 1163
- 01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:37,680
- It is becoming easier.
- 1164
- 01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:39,600
- A little bit.
- 1165
- 01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:41,600
- [sniffs]
- 1166
- 01:03:41,680 --> 01:03:43,240
- A little bit each day.
- 1167
- 01:03:47,280 --> 01:03:50,840
- But I can’t-- You know, I can’t fight
- the pit in my stomach every day that...
- 1168
- 01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:54,600
- I know we’re going to have this
- conversation or a conversation like this.
- 1169
- 01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:55,800
- But that’s my point.
- 1170
- 01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:58,200
- -Why do you have to fight it?
- -I can't-- But that's...
- 1171
- 01:03:58,280 --> 01:04:00,360
- It’s not fighting it. It's-- It's...
- 1172
- 01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:03,040
- It’s so draining.
- 1173
- 01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:10,520
- When he was here, he was here. He existed.
- 1174
- 01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:14,320
- [Leon] If we’re just burying
- these feelings,
- 1175
- 01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:16,600
- you know,
- we're just kind of forgetting them
- 1176
- 01:04:16,680 --> 01:04:20,080
- and not acknowledging those feelings
- that we had,
- 1177
- 01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:22,800
- the feelings we still have for him.
- 1178
- 01:04:22,880 --> 01:04:24,880
- [melancholic violin music playing]
- 1179
- 01:04:41,480 --> 01:04:43,840
- -What happens if none of us stick around?
- -[Orlando sniffs]
- 1180
- 01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:46,680
- [crying]
- 1181
- 01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:12,400
- [Orlando] Oh, my God.
- I’m trying not to hate this.
- 1182
- 01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:21,080
- I've got so much...
- 1183
- 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:25,840
- agony just built up from so long.
- 1184
- 01:05:34,480 --> 01:05:35,320
- [sniffs]
- 1185
- 01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:36,760
- [man] Is that the sea over there?
- 1186
- 01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:39,480
- Yeah, maybe like out,
- beyond through there.
- 1187
- 01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:40,880
- [man] On that cliff?
- 1188
- 01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:42,480
- [clears throat]
- 1189
- 01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:48,200
- [Gwen grunts]
- 1190
- 01:05:48,280 --> 01:05:50,480
- -Should we get to the top?
- -This is bloody nice, isn’t it?
- 1191
- 01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:52,400
- To sit still
- and not be attacked by midges.
- 1192
- 01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:06,040
- Because he used to tell me everything,
- I felt maybe...
- 1193
- 01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:08,760
- I'd missed something.
- 1194
- 01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:11,480
- Maybe he had tried to tell me something,
- and I'd missed it.
- 1195
- 01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:13,640
- Um... [clicks tongue]
- 1196
- 01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:15,440
- And I remember he had...
- 1197
- 01:06:17,600 --> 01:06:19,680
- Maybe about a week before he did it,
- 1198
- 01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:24,200
- he had tried to phone me,
- and I missed the call.
- 1199
- 01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:28,200
- And he left a voicemail and said
- he’d call back later.
- 1200
- 01:06:28,280 --> 01:06:31,720
- And I remember, I think it was
- the first mobile phone I had,
- 1201
- 01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:33,600
- and I didn’t even really know
- how to use it.
- 1202
- 01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:36,120
- And... um...
- 1203
- 01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:40,800
- I didn’t listen to the voicemail
- until after he had died,
- 1204
- 01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:45,200
- and I’ve always felt that...
- 1205
- 01:06:46,040 --> 01:06:50,120
- that is the conversation where he wanted
- to talk to me about how he was feeling.
- 1206
- 01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:52,320
- If we’d had that conversation, that, um...
- 1207
- 01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:57,760
- maybe I could’ve said something
- that would’ve meant he didn’t do that.
- 1208
- 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:04,200
- [wind gusting]
- 1209
- 01:07:08,520 --> 01:07:09,880
- [Orlando] Come sit here in the gap.
- 1210
- 01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:33,000
- [Gwen] Orlando wasn’t there.
- Orlando didn’t see that.
- 1211
- 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:35,480
- [Leon] The last,
- 1212
- 01:07:36,480 --> 01:07:38,120
- what, 13 years,
- 1213
- 01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:43,640
- he was cool, and it was just unexpected,
- as much as I knew of it.
- 1214
- 01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:46,480
- That was my thought on it.
- 1215
- 01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:50,320
- And it’s really interesting
- listening to you guys,
- 1216
- 01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:53,480
- or, like, you talk about E
- in his school days
- 1217
- 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:55,000
- and, like, hanging out.
- 1218
- 01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:00,120
- He was like-- E was like you.
- 1219
- 01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:02,200
- He used to laugh a lot.
- 1220
- 01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:05,440
- It was only kind of around exam time...
- 1221
- 01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:08,160
- where he would kind of get anxious,
- and then...
- 1222
- 01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:10,560
- Even the times when he felt anxious,
- 1223
- 01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:13,880
- it was very easy to kind of make him laugh
- and stuff again.
- 1224
- 01:08:14,400 --> 01:08:16,400
- It wouldn’t last long at all.
- 1225
- 01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:18,160
- It's like in--
- 1226
- 01:08:18,240 --> 01:08:21,160
- Whatever was upsetting him,
- if he was telling me about it,
- 1227
- 01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:24,000
- he would talk about it as if he’s never
- going to get past it.
- 1228
- 01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:25,640
- He was so upset about it.
- 1229
- 01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:28,920
- And literally a minute later,
- he’s forgotten.
- 1230
- 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:32,360
- He’s wetting himself with laughter
- and that thing’s forgotten completely.
- 1231
- 01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:34,160
- [Gwen chuckles softly]
- 1232
- 01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:41,120
- [Leon] There’s lots of memories I have,
- but there’s no dialogue.
- 1233
- 01:08:41,200 --> 01:08:44,000
- It’s just him laughing at whatever
- was happening. Just laughing.
- 1234
- 01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:45,040
- Exactly.
- 1235
- 01:08:45,120 --> 01:08:48,480
- [Leon] Like lighting his farts
- and setting his ass on fire and stuff.
- 1236
- 01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:49,400
- [laughs]
- 1237
- 01:08:50,440 --> 01:08:51,560
- [Gwen] That’s lovely.
- 1238
- 01:08:51,960 --> 01:08:53,680
- What? Shitting his pants? [chuckles]
- 1239
- 01:08:53,760 --> 01:08:55,160
- No, that like...
- 1240
- 01:08:58,280 --> 01:09:00,120
- It’s really lovely that you have those.
- 1241
- 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:02,600
- -Those details.
- -You have those memories of him.
- 1242
- 01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:06,360
- Of him laughing and like--
- And you didn't...
- 1243
- 01:09:07,720 --> 01:09:09,880
- You're not caught in a kind of like...
- 1244
- 01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:13,040
- broken record,
- 1245
- 01:09:13,720 --> 01:09:18,000
- soundtrack of, like,
- the last few months of his life.
- 1246
- 01:09:18,080 --> 01:09:19,280
- [Leon] No, because...
- 1247
- 01:09:21,080 --> 01:09:24,720
- [stutters] The lasting... strongest...
- 1248
- 01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:30,160
- image in my head of him was when I saw
- him when you had brought him home.
- 1249
- 01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:31,720
- Um...
- 1250
- 01:09:32,760 --> 01:09:35,280
- And I kind of wish I hadn’t seen him.
- But then,
- 1251
- 01:09:35,360 --> 01:09:37,960
- at the same time, I’m glad I did, but...
- 1252
- 01:09:38,480 --> 01:09:42,520
- Then I have so many dreams about--
- so many really vivid dreams about him.
- 1253
- 01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:53,120
- I don’t know.
- Even though I know they weren’t real,
- 1254
- 01:09:54,840 --> 01:09:56,280
- they kind of feel real.
- 1255
- 01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:05,240
- [deep breath]
- 1256
- 01:10:05,920 --> 01:10:07,920
- [Jack whispering] Mate, I can't do this.
- 1257
- 01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:10,360
- [huffs]
- 1258
- 01:10:10,440 --> 01:10:12,680
- -[Jack] Aw, fuck.
- -Yeah, it's like...
- 1259
- 01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:18,800
- It's like a song I kind of like
- but I've heard it too much.
- 1260
- 01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:20,560
- I don’t wanna hear it anymore.
- 1261
- 01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:23,960
- It's good for us to hear.
- 1262
- 01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:28,360
- [Gwen] Yeah, they're good thoughts
- to hear. Exactly.
- 1263
- 01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:36,600
- -It’s nice to hear him remembered...
- -[Jack] Fuck this, man.
- 1264
- 01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:38,120
- ...with this much laughter.
- 1265
- 01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:41,960
- Like the filthy humor. [chuckles]
- 1266
- 01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:45,200
- [Leon] Yeah. The "what ifs"
- are killing me.
- 1267
- 01:10:45,280 --> 01:10:47,200
- -The "what ifs."
- -Yeah, but that’s like...
- 1268
- 01:10:50,160 --> 01:10:51,640
- [Gwen] Yeah. Oh, I don't know.
- 1269
- 01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:00,360
- [Leon] I thought I'd kind of
- put all these feelings to bed.
- 1270
- 01:11:00,440 --> 01:11:01,280
- I just...
- 1271
- 01:11:03,080 --> 01:11:04,320
- I just wanna...
- 1272
- 01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:07,000
- -keep--
- -[Gwen] But you are. You have been.
- 1273
- 01:11:10,360 --> 01:11:11,200
- [sniffs]
- 1274
- 01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:19,760
- [sniffs]
- 1275
- 01:12:16,560 --> 01:12:17,600
- [wind gusting]
- 1276
- 01:12:23,880 --> 01:12:25,880
- [gentle piano music playing]
- 1277
- 01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:36,960
- [birds screeching]
- 1278
- 01:12:53,280 --> 01:12:55,320
- [Gwen] I don’t remember
- when we were here last.
- 1279
- 01:12:55,880 --> 01:12:58,040
- [Orlando] I don’t know.
- Fifteen years ago, probably?
- 1280
- 01:13:07,680 --> 01:13:08,640
- [car door closes]
- 1281
- 01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:18,440
- [Orlando] What’s wrong?
- 1282
- 01:13:23,240 --> 01:13:24,560
- [clears throat]
- 1283
- 01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:28,560
- I don’t feel very good.
- 1284
- 01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:34,800
- Why not?
- 1285
- 01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:35,720
- [sniffs]
- 1286
- 01:13:38,000 --> 01:13:40,800
- I just don’t. I’m tired. I've had enough.
- 1287
- 01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:43,240
- I don’t think this is a...
- 1288
- 01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:45,120
- I don't think this is--
- 1289
- 01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:47,520
- This is a catalyst for something else.
- 1290
- 01:13:47,600 --> 01:13:49,360
- Obviously, I threw this at her.
- 1291
- 01:13:50,800 --> 01:13:52,720
- Even if it was accidental, it’s not...
- 1292
- 01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:56,640
- Like, it’s just sort of like--
- Just be more aware of like--
- 1293
- 01:13:56,720 --> 01:13:59,360
- Just be more aware of people, Robin.
- 1294
- 01:14:04,320 --> 01:14:06,680
- [Orlando] Why did you throw it in her face
- in the first place?
- 1295
- 01:14:06,760 --> 01:14:08,560
- Orlando, don’t have this tone with me.
- 1296
- 01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:12,640
- It's like-- You can’t come in
- and wade in and be dictatorial.
- 1297
- 01:14:13,120 --> 01:14:14,920
- -Didn’t throw it in her face.
- -[Orlando] I was just asking.
- 1298
- 01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:17,320
- I threw it at her.
- I didn’t know she was slouching.
- 1299
- 01:14:19,280 --> 01:14:24,200
- I don’t feel lighter.
- I don’t feel like I’m exorcising stuff.
- 1300
- 01:14:24,280 --> 01:14:27,400
- I actually just feel like all it’s doing
- is bringing lots of very painful
- 1301
- 01:14:27,480 --> 01:14:29,320
- and traumatic things back...
- 1302
- 01:14:30,200 --> 01:14:33,400
- [stutters]
- ...that I can’t now make go away.
- 1303
- 01:14:33,480 --> 01:14:34,320
- [sniffs]
- 1304
- 01:14:39,320 --> 01:14:43,080
- You know, stuff like I've had to spent
- a long time trying to forget,
- 1305
- 01:14:43,160 --> 01:14:45,680
- and now I’m just like--
- 1306
- 01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:47,200
- It’s not getting any easier.
- 1307
- 01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:54,400
- [gulps]
- 1308
- 01:14:54,480 --> 01:14:55,840
- [Orlando] Like what?
- 1309
- 01:14:56,600 --> 01:14:57,440
- Lots of things.
- 1310
- 01:14:57,520 --> 01:14:59,680
- There’s, like, things that I’m plagued by.
- 1311
- 01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:02,440
- You know, like, images
- and, like, thoughts.
- 1312
- 01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:10,120
- [sniffs]
- 1313
- 01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:18,080
- And just because we’re talking,
- it doesn’t--
- 1314
- 01:15:18,160 --> 01:15:19,640
- It’s not really...
- 1315
- 01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:24,760
- It’s not getting less painful
- or less traumatic.
- 1316
- 01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:32,440
- [Orlando] I don’t--
- I mean, I can tell you how I feel on that.
- 1317
- 01:15:32,520 --> 01:15:36,680
- I don’t feel that it’s any less traumatic
- talking about...
- 1318
- 01:15:37,560 --> 01:15:40,440
- parts of Evelyn’s life and the bad parts.
- 1319
- 01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:45,080
- But it does become a lot easier
- to talk about him and think about him.
- 1320
- 01:15:47,160 --> 01:15:48,040
- Yeah.
- 1321
- 01:15:48,920 --> 01:15:49,760
- Maybe.
- 1322
- 01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:53,960
- Come on. I’m sorry about that.
- 1323
- 01:15:54,040 --> 01:15:56,840
- I felt instant guilt
- as soon as I threw it.
- 1324
- 01:15:58,440 --> 01:15:59,600
- Come on. [pats leg]
- 1325
- 01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:01,080
- Have a little dip.
- 1326
- 01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:02,280
- It'll be all right.
- 1327
- 01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:05,200
- [screams]
- 1328
- 01:16:06,840 --> 01:16:08,200
- Woo! Woo!
- 1329
- 01:16:08,280 --> 01:16:09,400
- Woo hoo!
- 1330
- 01:16:10,640 --> 01:16:11,800
- Come on!
- 1331
- 01:16:11,880 --> 01:16:12,880
- Is it good?
- 1332
- 01:16:12,960 --> 01:16:14,240
- It's freezing!
- 1333
- 01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:15,320
- Jump!
- 1334
- 01:16:15,880 --> 01:16:18,440
- -Move out of the way!
- -Jump! Go!
- 1335
- 01:16:18,520 --> 01:16:20,240
- Jump! Jump!
- 1336
- 01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:21,560
- Woo!
- 1337
- 01:16:21,640 --> 01:16:22,800
- [Orlando laughs]
- 1338
- 01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:25,040
- [Robin whoops]
- 1339
- 01:16:25,720 --> 01:16:27,720
- [melancholic music playing]
- 1340
- 01:16:31,880 --> 01:16:32,720
- [Robin] Woo hoo!
- 1341
- 01:16:33,160 --> 01:16:34,800
- -Here.
- -Nah!
- 1342
- 01:16:34,880 --> 01:16:36,600
- -[shouting] Stop moving!
- -[Orlando] Jump!
- 1343
- 01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:38,040
- I hate you both!
- 1344
- 01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:42,880
- -[Orlando] Jump!
- -All right! Stop it!
- 1345
- 01:16:43,840 --> 01:16:44,760
- Woo!
- 1346
- 01:16:44,840 --> 01:16:46,600
- -Can I go?
- -Yeah, just go.
- 1347
- 01:16:47,600 --> 01:16:49,600
- [music turns up]
- 1348
- 01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:04,120
- [birds screeching]
- 1349
- 01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:22,440
- [Robin] Orlando, where were you
- when Evelyn died?
- 1350
- 01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:23,520
- [Orlando] I was in Italy.
- 1351
- 01:17:24,440 --> 01:17:25,320
- [Gwen] Who rang you?
- 1352
- 01:17:25,760 --> 01:17:26,600
- [Orlando] Mom.
- 1353
- 01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:29,200
- [Gwen] Can you remember
- what she said?
- 1354
- 01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:30,800
- [wind blowing]
- 1355
- 01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:32,720
- Um...
- 1356
- 01:17:33,200 --> 01:17:34,880
- She phoned up and said,
- 1357
- 01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:38,240
- “He’s done it.
- 1358
- 01:17:39,320 --> 01:17:40,800
- He’s killed himself.”
- 1359
- 01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:44,160
- And then she hung up.
- 1360
- 01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:08,440
- How soon did you get back?
- 1361
- 01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:13,480
- I got bundled into a taxi
- within about half an hour
- 1362
- 01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:15,240
- and went straight to the airport.
- 1363
- 01:18:16,560 --> 01:18:17,600
- [clears throat]
- 1364
- 01:18:21,360 --> 01:18:22,280
- I don’t--
- 1365
- 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:24,440
- I don't even remember coming home.
- 1366
- 01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:27,960
- I don’t remember seeing any of you guys,
- but I guess I must’ve got back that night.
- 1367
- 01:18:28,480 --> 01:18:30,240
- -[Robin] Did you come home that evening?
- -Yeah.
- 1368
- 01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:31,600
- [Robin] I remember that.
- 1369
- 01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:34,880
- I don’t.
- 1370
- 01:18:35,720 --> 01:18:37,880
- There was a Virgil on Peckham Rye.
- 1371
- 01:18:38,320 --> 01:18:39,320
- -Vigil.
- -Vigil.
- 1372
- 01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:42,120
- -"There was a Virgil."
- -Whatever.
- 1373
- 01:18:43,520 --> 01:18:45,760
- There was an-- Roman...
- 1374
- 01:18:47,160 --> 01:18:48,640
- -Writer.
- -Writer.
- 1375
- 01:18:48,720 --> 01:18:50,000
- [Robin] Writing a book.
- 1376
- 01:18:50,080 --> 01:18:52,560
- That would’ve been appropriate
- because Evelyn loved Virgil.
- 1377
- 01:18:53,240 --> 01:18:54,440
- He loved <i>The Aeneid.</i>
- 1378
- 01:19:02,720 --> 01:19:03,600
- [sighing]
- 1379
- 01:19:06,280 --> 01:19:08,280
- [wind howling]
- 1380
- 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:33,920
- [melancholic string music playing]
- 1381
- 01:19:40,280 --> 01:19:42,920
- [Robin] I do think, post-walk, that...
- 1382
- 01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:45,920
- just because we’ve sort of
- opened this discussion
- 1383
- 01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:47,320
- and we’ve talked about it,
- 1384
- 01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:49,600
- it doesn’t mean that...
- 1385
- 01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:52,200
- we’ve, like, dealt with it.
- 1386
- 01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:54,480
- I think, you know,
- 1387
- 01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:58,880
- we should all try and make this a...
- 1388
- 01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:02,160
- like an ongoing discussion
- 1389
- 01:20:02,240 --> 01:20:04,240
- -just amongst ourselves.
- -[Orlando] Definitely, Robs.
- 1390
- 01:20:04,880 --> 01:20:05,720
- [man] Hello.
- 1391
- 01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:08,200
- What are you guys up to?
- 1392
- 01:20:09,640 --> 01:20:12,160
- We’re um... We're walking.
- 1393
- 01:20:12,240 --> 01:20:15,480
- We’ve been walking for the past month
- from the far north of Scotland
- 1394
- 01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:18,640
- down back to London
- in memory of our brother.
- 1395
- 01:20:18,720 --> 01:20:20,120
- Oh, that’s fantastic!
- 1396
- 01:20:20,200 --> 01:20:22,520
- -Talking and--
- -With a film crew the whole way?
- 1397
- 01:20:22,600 --> 01:20:24,040
- -Yeah.
- -Excellent!
- 1398
- 01:20:24,120 --> 01:20:26,320
- Well, we’ve been following them, but...
- 1399
- 01:20:26,800 --> 01:20:28,920
- -Yeah. Well, that’s awesome.
- -Yeah.
- 1400
- 01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:30,400
- So, how far have you got to go?
- 1401
- 01:20:30,480 --> 01:20:33,200
- -From here straight to London?
- -This is our-- Tomorrow is our last day.
- 1402
- 01:20:33,560 --> 01:20:37,600
- -Tomorrow’s going to be a fantastic day.
- -I hope so.
- 1403
- 01:20:37,680 --> 01:20:40,000
- This is a subject we’ve avoided.
- 1404
- 01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:43,600
- He took his own life 13 years ago,
- and we’ve avoided talking about it...
- 1405
- 01:20:43,680 --> 01:20:47,000
- -[airplane engine roars]
- -...since then. This is--
- 1406
- 01:20:47,080 --> 01:20:48,280
- We’ve been talking.
- 1407
- 01:20:48,560 --> 01:20:51,240
- -Can I ask, if it's not imprudent?
- -No. You can ask anything.
- 1408
- 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:53,000
- Is it a cathartic experience?
- Has it helped?
- 1409
- 01:20:53,080 --> 01:20:55,280
- [stutters] Well, today’s actually a day--
- 1410
- 01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:57,240
- It’s sort of reflecting
- on how it's all been
- 1411
- 01:20:57,320 --> 01:21:00,800
- because tomorrow is the end,
- um, and um...
- 1412
- 01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:02,960
- I don't know. Yes.
- 1413
- 01:21:03,040 --> 01:21:04,800
- For me, enormously.
- 1414
- 01:21:04,880 --> 01:21:06,800
- I did 20 years in the forces,
- 1415
- 01:21:06,880 --> 01:21:09,520
- -and I came out in 2005.
- -Yeah.
- 1416
- 01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:11,280
- Since that time,
- I’ve lost three of my friends,
- 1417
- 01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:13,560
- -and they’ve all taken their own lives.
- -Oh, I’m so sorry.
- 1418
- 01:21:13,640 --> 01:21:16,400
- So, it’s something that--
- Goose bumps, and it’s...
- 1419
- 01:21:16,480 --> 01:21:18,160
- Yeah, wow. Well done you for doing this.
- 1420
- 01:21:18,240 --> 01:21:22,280
- I think, for me, it’s just this huge
- importance of awareness
- 1421
- 01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:24,240

- 1423
- 01:21:27,560 --> 01:21:31,040
- on our walk down,
- of talking to people, how many...
- 1424
- 01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:36,880
- people there are who have friends
- or family who have experience in suicide,
- 1425
- 01:21:36,960 --> 01:21:40,680
- or um... of how much of, like,
- a pertinent issue.
- 1426
- 01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:43,560
- Tragic.
- I’m very sorry for your loss, really.

- -What’s your name?
- -Simon. Nice to meet you.

- Good luck for tomorrow.
- 1434
- 01:21:57,800 --> 01:22:00,200
- -Do I have--
- -[Orlando] Snot all over your mouth?
- 1435
- 01:22:00,280 --> 01:22:02,000
- Do I have streams down my face?
- 1436
- 01:22:02,080 --> 01:22:04,160
- -You got a little snot mustache.
- -Do I?
- 1437
- 01:22:04,240 --> 01:22:06,480
- -No.
- -What about black bits?
- 1438
- 01:22:07,360 --> 01:22:08,680
- No, you're pretty good.
- 1439
- 01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:21,800
- Here's a business card.
- 1440
- 01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:24,520
- You need to give us a ring. Come flying.
- 1441
- 01:22:24,600 --> 01:22:27,800
- Also, I didn't get a hug from you earlier.
- I got quite upset. I'm sorry about that.
- 1442
- 01:22:27,880 --> 01:22:31,240
- I was a bit upset
- before we bumped into you, Simon,
- 1443
- 01:22:31,320 --> 01:22:33,360
- -so thank you. [sniffs]
- -I know.
- 1444
- 01:22:33,440 --> 01:22:37,280
- -It never stops, does it?
- -No, and I think that's why I was crying.
- 1445
- 01:22:37,760 --> 01:22:39,680
- I never thought about this
- being cathartic,
- 1446
- 01:22:39,760 --> 01:22:43,160
- but it was just the realization
- that the pain won’t go away is like...
- 1447
- 01:22:43,680 --> 01:22:44,600
- You know...
- 1448
- 01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:47,360
- It's tough.
- 1449
- 01:22:47,440 --> 01:22:48,520
- I want a hug.
- 1450
- 01:22:50,280 --> 01:22:51,400
- Thank you, Simon.
- 1451
- 01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:54,120
- I don't normally get upset,
- you know, so...
- 1452
- 01:22:54,600 --> 01:22:55,600
- Good on you guys.
- 1453
- 01:22:56,280 --> 01:22:57,680
- [Gwen] We'll be in touch.
- 1454

- -[Simon] Thank you for that.
- -Thank you.
- 1457
- 01:23:10,920 --> 01:23:13,720
- [Gwen] That was the best hug I’ve had
- all month. [laughs]
- 1458
- 01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:15,920
- [Robin] He really grips you, doesn't he?
- 1459
- 01:23:16,040 --> 01:23:18,600
- -[Gwen chuckles] He gripped me.
- -Gave you a little arm grip.

- So, um...
- 1462
- 01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:34,680
- I've got a friend called Laura whose...
- 1463
- 01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:37,640
- one of her best friends took her life.
- 1464
- 01:23:38,880 --> 01:23:39,840
- And um...
- 1465
- 01:23:41,160 --> 01:23:43,320
- and then she sent this the other day
- 1466
- 01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:44,800
- and just said this...
- 1467
- 01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:48,280
- poem really helped her...
- 1468
- 01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:50,400
