ALARM RINGS

-Is this it?

-We've been ringing him all night.

It goes straight to answer phone.

-What time you expecting Honey?

-Three o'clock.

But, Phil, he ain't coming back, he's desperate, I know he ain't.

I'll have him home lunchtime, the latest.

He'll be halfway across the country by now.

Billy? He gets a nosebleed going south of the river.

No, he won't have gone far.

Stay here, let us know if the muppet comes back. Come on, Jay.

-Yeah, well, I gotta drop Lexi to...

-Jay!

-..playgroup first.

Don't worry, all right?

Thanks.

Right, back in.

Go on, back in.

You can't have breakfast in bed unless you're in bed, can you, so...

Is that your idea of an apology?

Oh, don't be like this. I'm sorry, all right.

Yeah? I was well out of order.

I shouldn't have said what I did.

We won, you know.

Last night, at the ball.

Team of the Year?

All that work and I wasn't even there.

I don't know why I'm surprised.

I'm usually at the back of the queue, but...

At the risk of sounding "needy"',

it would have been nice if once, just once,

you could have done something to make me feel special.

Hello, lover boy.

Hello.

So, look what I got.

HE WHISTLES

You like?

I don't think I'd get into them.

Listen, Ronnie is taking Amy out later.

So you better brace yourself.

How much do I owe you?

Ah, don't worry about it. I was coming this way anyway.

Peter, it's got nothing to do with me,

but why were you hanging around those unlicensed cabbies?

It was nothing. I was just handing these out.

Yeah, but Jake's inside, ain't he?

Police still haven't found the driver. It's evidence.

Well, like I say, it's nothing to do with me,

but, steer clear of those people.

Cos I've heard horror stories.

Peter! You've got two minutes. Normally you'd be on warning

but I'm not inhuman. Get over there, open up.

I'm sick.

What do you mean you're sick?

Listen, I know you're having a hard time

but I will not have an empty pitch on my market! Peter!

Give him a break, mate, eh.

Hi.

RINGS BELL

Can we go inside?

Peter, I'm sorry.

About my dad and Lucy. I didn't know.

No, it's not your fault.

It doesn't stop me from feeling bad though, does it?

I know he's done some bad things in his time,

but this is probably the worst.

Listen, I need your help.

Can we go into your nan's?

Yeah.

It's perfect, innit?

Like the picture Sharon had of the original but, you know, bit more modern?

The old and the new. It's beautiful, baby.

The crowning glory.

You blind? She's a moose.

And you're a disgrace. Puking in the street.

There better not be a repeat performance this afternoon.

No, my Tina's going to be on her best behaviour.

-What with the unveiling and all that.

-I'm never drinking again.

-Here's the bill.

-What's the matter with her?

Think she's had murders with Tosh.

Oh, good, you two split up?

What are you doing now?

We want to create an air of mystery, don't we?

Linda, it's a pub sign, not the flamin' Mona Lisa.

Might as well be, cos it's cost a monkey.

Well, quality don't come cheap, Mick.

Don't look that special to me.

Well it wouldn't to you.

It's about what it represents.

Heritage. Roots.

Ooh, woo-hoo, we've got history(!)

Won't have a future, you keep spending.

That's why we're having the unveiling, ain't it?

To get everyone talking. I want this gaff rammo.

So yous two can make yourself busy and go and get the word out.

All right, I'll take the market,

you take the launderette and the caff.

I'll do more than that.

Linda's right.

That thing's going to speak volumes.

A monkey, baby? A monkey.

I'm sorry.

Come on, Pops, answer the phone!

Lola?

Are you serious?

I tried to see him myself but the prison wouldn't let me.

Well he's not going to see me, is he?

As far as he's concerned, I put him in there.

I know it's a long shot.

-And I know you don't want to go but...

-Jake's guilty, Peter.

Is he?

Phil went to see him.

He reckons the police are sure now that Lucy wasn't killed in the flat.

Who said that?

What, Jake?

Yeah, but why would he lie?

They're not going to let him out if it's not true.

Yeah well, listen...

He doesn't operate like normal people, Peter.

If it's not him, that means that Lucy's killer's still out there.

Just walking around.

You know him better than anyone, Lauren.

You can suss him out.

Find out if he's lying.

I didn't know he was a murderer, did I?

And he is Peter. I'm sure.

Then prove it.

Please.

I need to be sure.

Is this a wind up?

No, it's the least you can do.

It's your fault I'm in this mess in the first place.

What'd you go telling her I said she was needy for?

Slipped out, I thought I was doing you a favour.

Can I get a bacon sandwich, please?

To go.

It ain't funny, Dean.

I know you don't rate her but I love her, OK.

And she needs to see that.

Buy her some flowers, or a pair of football boots.

If these are the kind of lengths you have to go to,

-"needy" doesn't even start to cover...

-Right,

right now I need you, yeah.

Please. She's in there right now. It'll just take five minutes.

Please.

Please.

Well she obviously wants to talk to Pops, don't she?

No, no, no, no, I can't keep her here all day.

Well, what if she notices the kids stuff's gone or something?

And that's the best you can come up with, is it?

Lola, I'm thinking about putting William's stuff together, you know,

-while I'm waiting, if that's all right?

-No, no.

Lola, I know you're angry with me and I totally understand why, OK,

but I'm not doing this to hurt Billy.

-I'm just trying to...

-Look, let's just forget all that, shall we?

It's in the past now, we're good.

Do you want to come with me? I've got a surprise.

Come on, come on! It's a good surprise. Get your handbag! Woo!

Surprise!

Don't tell me.

You've come to apologise.

I would need to have done something wrong for that.

Think you've done Tina a favour, do you?

Yeah, I'm not stupid.

You don't like me.

You want to split us up. What is it, genetic?

This need to interfere.

I'm nothing to do with that family.

I mean, it looks like a Carter,

acts like one.

And just for the record, no. No, I don't like you.

From what I hear you're a bully.

Your aunt gives as good as she gets, believe you me.

Anyway, if you're nothing to do with them, what do you care?

I said what I said.

Don't take it out on Tina.

Get in there then.

And I'll take it out on you.

Call me old-fashioned.

Well, I hope it helps. I mean, the oncologist has signed it.

But it only explains why I can't work, but it might help.

Thanks, Mum, all right. And look, don't worry too much.

They're not going to sack me, are they?

Under the circumstances.

-Well, look, you let us know when it's all over, yeah?

-I will.

-Listen, good luck, darlin'. You'll be fine.

-All right.

-All right.

-Thanks.

-See ya.

Come on, then, let's go.

Coffee to go, please.

Hi. The lady I want to see. Listen, have you spoken to Roger?

He's delivering at three. Kat will be back from visiting Stacey by then.

But we agreed we keep Kat out of this.

I'll just tell her I'm doing something with my mum.

-Do you mind if I swing by later, it's just I don't trust the bloke.

-Oh, no, it's good.

I'll see you later yeah?

All right. Thanks, darlin'.

Do yourself a favour and bin it. We're square now, yeah?

Come over the Vic later though, yeah? It will be fun, I promise.

I've got plans, sorry.

DOORBELL RINGS

Just ignore it.

Roxy?! It's Lola. I've brought Honey like you said.

What?!

OK, Sal, thanks. Just call me if he does, yeah. Cheers.

Maybe we should just tell Honey.

Maybe we should cut out the middleman and go to the Old Bill ourselves.

No, we'll have a drive round.

How long do you reckon Lola can hold her off?

Where's the Jag?

Gotcha!

Sonia, love.

Have you seen my mum?

Yes, she told me. How did you get on?

I've been ever so worried.

Yeah, I got a warning. I've just got to be on my best behaviour.

-Oh, so you didn't lose your job then.

-No, thankfully.

But, I dunno how Mum's going to cope, for money.

Ask and it shall be given unto you.

All right, George, that's wicked. All right, see ya later.

You know you're all in my prayers

and I've put Carol on the prayer list.

They got the vomit out your girlfriend's dress.

I'm not sure she is any more.

Long story.

Bet Martin is relieved.

Why, what's happened?

No, nothing.

I didn't tell him, Dot.

You can't keep secrets from your husband.

I didn't want to worry him. And you know, it's all sorted, isn't it?

Here you are, Dot, thanks.

You doing anything later? New sign's going up at the Vic.

You know what Linda's like. Any excuse for a party. Come along, yeah?

Don't you two get too comfy.

Taxi'll be here in a minute.

Will Mummy be there?

-Uncle Garry lives on a boat.

-Yay!

-That's exciting, isn't it?

-Yes.

KNOCK ON DOOR

I'll get the door.

No, you go and get your stuff, baby.

Just coming, mate.

Hello, mate.

Tracker on the Jag, you numpty.

-You all right, kids?

-Yeah.

You ready to come home?

Yeah.

Thanks for seeing me.

What do you want, Lauren?

Where are you going?

Why?

You feeling bad?

I thought this might give me some kind of satisfaction but...

I haven't done anything.

-I just told the police what you....

-No.

No, Lauren. You never "just" do anything.

You twisted things like you always do.

Then you went shooting your mouth off to the police.

And now, you've been talking to Phil.

I'm not here to apologise.

Why haven't they let you go, eh?

If they really think that you're innocent.

Why are you here then if you think I did it?

I'm here for Peter.

What a good, brave friend you are,

confronting the ice-cold killer.

But then, we both know that's rubbish, don't we, Lauren?

I don't know anything any more, Jake.

I certainly don't know you.

But if the police think you're guilty...

You look me in the eyes.

And you tell me that you believe I did it.

Go on.

I don't know what I did to you that was so bad.

Yes, boss.

Do you know what, I'm going to kill Billy.

Why couldn't he just do something sensible

like climb up Big Ben dressed as Spider-Man?

You could have called.

I did call. Ain't my fault you didn't answer.

I didn't know what else to do, did I?

Do you think Honey's going to suspect something?

Hello? We're talking about Honey here, not Miss Marple.

Pick up your tea, come on.

Here we go. Tea's up.

So this is a nice surprise, Honey.

Really?

I thought you were expecting me.

Yeah. Well, I say surprise, I mean...

Here, take that and move up.

We were expecting you, just not yet.

How come you're so early?

I need to talk to Billy.

Who do you think you are, Ronnie Biggs?

-I mean, we tracked you down in what, four hours?

-Three and a half.

And that's with 45 minutes stuck on the M25.

Yeah, well, you got lucky.

-Cos ten more and you wouldn't have had a clue.

-Oh, yeah?

So, where was Daddy taking you, eh?

Uncle Garry's boat.

Priceless. You can't even swim.

Laugh all you want. I'm not coming back.

So you've got everything sorted out, have you? Fake IDs, new schools?

She's not taking my kids, Phil.

All right? I've tried to reason with her.

It's a year, Billy.

And what if she decides to stay, eh?

Meets a fella,

decides that that's where she wants to live, eh?

When am I going to see them then, eh? Once, twice a year?

Well, it's better that than nothing at all, ain't it?

Billy, she's at Roxy's now, yeah?

You leave it much longer, she'll be straight onto the Old Bill.

And you want to get done for kidnapping do you, eh?

Come on, mate. Look. Just have a look.

If you've got something to hide, mate, you can talk to the police.

I'm taking your reg.

Peter!

I'm fine.

There ya go.

It's all there though, innit?

He's not charged us over the top, has he?

Pay-off far outweighs the risk.

As long as you don't get caught, of course.

It's good gear, though, innit?

I mean, he said it's guaranteed to get the ladies hooked.

Have you brought drugs into this house?

Drugs?!

Mum, it's fake tan!

Look, here you go.

You can have a bit!

Remember what we said, kids, yeah? Last night's our little secret.

Yeah, cos we don't want Mummy getting jealous, do we?

You're doing the right thing, Billy.

So I tell him, look, buddy, you're wasting not only my time...

Aleks, I agree with you, I mean, that's so interesting.

Roxy, this has been lovely, but I really need to go and get Billy.

No, no, just wait here!

Why don't you have another cup of tea?

Look, we arranged three o'clock, OK.

My flight leaves in four hours and I've got a huge amount to sort out.

Are you packed? Yes. All you've got to do is jump in a taxi.

OK, listen. I've been thinking.

What if Janet stayed with Billy?

It'd be a lot for him to take on.

And he'll have to re-enrol her at school.

Then there's all the other stuff.

There's her swimming, her speech and language, ballet...

So you want to leave Janet here, that's why you came round early?

Well, if he agrees. I mean, he's right.

It's not fair to uproot her.

And I'll miss her, I'll miss her terribly...

I don't know.

Maybe this is too complicated.

No, it's not! I'm here to help, ain't I?

Roxy's here, we're all here.

Yes, yes. Honey, Billy's going to be here any minute!

-Are you trying to keep me away from him for some reason?

-No!

DOORBELL RINGS

Here you are. I'll get it.

Listen, I think it's very noble what you're doing, honestly.

Be nice. She's talking about letting Janet stay, all right.

Where have you two been? I've missed you.

We went to that soft play place.

Yeah, then we went and got a burger.

Hon, Lola says you wanted to talk to me.

I've been thinking about what you've been saying, Billy.

Well, how would you feel about Janet staying?

Daddy wanted us to live on a boat.

You looking for your phone?

What have you done with it?

Get yourself to the Vic.

What?

Tina!

You spent all night hanging round dodgy clubs,

taking down registrations?

What were you thinking?

Never mind that, OK.

Did he see you?

Well, what did he say?

What do you think he said? He said he didn't do it.

But?

Lauren, if you've changed your mind...

I don't know.

I honestly don't know, Peter.

I'm not saying that I think Jake's innocent, but...

But you're not sure, are you? He could be?

There are some things that don't quite add up, yeah.

Where are you going?

I've got to get back out there.

I've got to find that driver.

Are you mad? Can you just sit down, please, Peter?

Look at yourself. You've got to stop this.

I will, when I'm convinced they've found the right man.

What else can I do for Lucy now?

I can't just give up.

All right. Well, you can't go out on your own.

I'll come with you.

-I think it's time, Mick, don't you?

-Yeah, all right, yeah.

Hello, again. You all right?

Look, I'm really sorry I haven't told you what's been going on.

The bosses have hauled me in...

-Where's my phone?

-You'll get it. You'll get it all right.

-After the fireworks.

-Tina!

Right, ladies and gentlemen.

First of all, thank you very much for turning out.

Now, I want you in the pub, not outside,

so I'm going to keep this very brief and very lively.

This is a traditional boozer.

And we're very proud of it.

And what better way of recognising that

that to have the greatest symbol of endurance and heritage,

above that door?

So, please, raise your glasses, to the Queen Vic.

The Queen Vic!

Go on, love. Do the honours.

The Queen Victoria!

Bleedin' hell!

Tina!

Easy girl, easy.

Special enough for you?

Before you start, I'm sorry, all right.

After all the trouble lying's caused us, Billy, honestly.

I was stupid.

I shouldn't have done it.

I shouldn't have burnt the passport,

and I shouldn't have had a go at you.

Look, I know you're upset.

When they were born

I promised myself

that I'd be all the things that my old man wasn't.

Nothing out of the ordinary.

I'd protect them, play with them,

I don't know, just be there.

And I was.

And I was the happiest I've ever been.

And then...

you left.

I ain't... Sorry I'm not blaming you, I'm not.

It was my own fault.

But it broke my heart.

I dunno.

I suppose all this brings it all back.

I'm not going out of my way to hurt you, Billy.

You know, if they'd offered us this contract in London,

-I would have taken it.

-I know.

It's just...

I don't see them enough as it is.

I'm being selfish, I know.

No, that's what you think I'm being.

You're right.

You're a brilliant, Mum.

It's a brilliant opportunity.

For William.

-And you're a brilliant Dad, Billy.

-Yeah.

-And a good man.

OK, you nearly did a really stupid thing just then...

..but in the end you put them first.

That's what matters, isn't it?

Go on, then. Give me my phone.

I really am sorry.

What for?

For being a cow or nicking this?

You're right. I'm a total screw up. And I don't deserve you.

But I do really love you.

I'll put you first from now on. I promise.

Do you really think I'm needy?

No! Dean just got the wrong end of the stick.

Oh, you mean he was stirring?

Look, if you've got something to say, just say it, yeah?

Don't go behind my back.

If I can't trust you...

What? Even if it's for like a really good reason?

Lads? What are you doing here?

Couldn't let you miss out completely, could I?

Yeah!

I don't know how you can be so calm.

What do you want him to do?

Call a Beefeater and get her sent to the Tower?

You're all right with it, are you?

My beautiful sign... Vandalised.

Oh, shut up, it'll come off, won't it?

Look, she's brought the punters in, hasn't she?

All hail Queen Tosh, that's what I say.

Yes, lads, what can I get you?

So, you're off then?

-Aleks? Hi. Yeah.

-I'm glad I caught you.

I had this thing lying about.

Thought maybe it might be of some use.

For me?

Yeah, it's a bit old and scratched but it works.

You'll be able to call Janet every day.

Are you sure, mate? That's very decent of you.

Really, I can't...

Laimigu celu, as we say in Latvian. Have a safe trip.

All right, then, sweetie.

Now, you be a good girl for Daddy, OK.

And I'll see you very soon, all right. Give us a kiss.

Are you sure you're OK about this?

I know this is what I wanted, but...

You'll be fine.

Listen, I know we've had our ups and downs Billy but...

you've never made Janet feel anything other than perfect.

That's cos you are, aren't you?

She's our little girl.

Do you know how special that makes you, Billy Mitchell?

I'm glad I had my babies with you.

Right.

Yeah, I'll just...

Stay with Mummy.

See you later, alligator.

Love you, boy.

You be good, yeah.

All right...

-Text me me as soon as you land?

-Yeah.

-Yeah?

Where to, love? Gatwick?

Yeah. Thanks.

Take care.

Yeah, and you.

Bye, bye, Mummy.

Bye, Mum.

Bye, Mummy, bye.

Right then, princess.

Now what's it going to be?

Brussels sprouts or ice cream?

Ice cream.

Start as we mean to go on, eh?

Going to give your dad a cuddle?

Come on. There we go.

I was a bit surprised when your mother said. I mean...

from a drug dealer.

I know, Dot. My own mother, eh?

Mind you, you have been in prison.

You meet a lot of funny people in there, you know.

As I know to my cost.

Yeah, well, thanks for reminding me about that.

-You really think you're going to sell that stuff?

-Yeah, why not?

It's hardly the season for fake tan.

Who's going to buy it when the sun's blazing around outside?

It's hardly your area of speciality though, is it, Dot?

What do you keep staring at?

Nothing.

TEXT MESSAGE ALERT

You look like you could do with a bit of colour,

fancy buying a bit of fake tan?

No, thanks. I don't do orange.

That's an interesting sign out there, innit?

That's not the word I'd use for it.

-Excuse me. Excuse me.

-All right!

What's the matter with her? How many's she had?

Dunno!

Oi, you.

I thought you said you didn't fancy that Tina?

I don't. I've told you that, OK?

So what was it then? A one-off snog, was it?

I've seen the way you were looking at her and her girlfriend, Sonia.

I am not stupid. Has something else happened?

No, nothing.

It's been really a horrible day.

I've been worried about the tribunal, money, Mummy.

TOILET FLUSHES

Oh, Dot...

Listen, about that. You know, I can explain to you...

No need. I ain't deaf.

And I ain't stupid neither.

I am deeply disappointed in you, Sonia.

You don't have to tell me how hard marriage is.

Look, it was a mistake. It didn't mean anything.

That makes it all the worse.

You're prepared to throw away your marriage,

a good husband, a lovely little daughter,

what we had too much trouble with, you were lucky to get her back.

Course, that's none of my business.

Oh, come on, Dot, you heard her. Don't say nothing.

Your mother,

she's got enough on her plate.

What? I didn't know she was in there, did I?

She ain't going to say nothing.

Well, let's hope she doesn't, eh?

I dunno why I thought I could trust you.

Oh, come on, Son, don't be like that.
