I mean, what's he going to do, if they get off?

If they plead not guilty next week?

What are any of us going to do?

And now Phil's in hospital...

Ben! How's your dad?

Oh, he's a lot less drowsy.

But it looks like he's going to be in there for a while.

Erm, come to tea later.

I don't know.

Pam and I, you know, we'd like that.

All right. Yeah, thanks.

Have you got my nightie?

Of course I've got your nightie, Mum.

All right, Teen. Hey.

Is this what it looks like?

I was going to tell you once I'd got her settled.

You sure about this? What are you coming for?

I told you, Mum. Now that Sonia's gone and...Buster's left...

Dumped again, are you? I wasn't dumped.

Give us a sec, I'll give you a hand, yeah?

You're a lively one! You got my nightie?

Yes. Yes.

Come on, let's go.

Let's get her home.

Did Martin tell you we're going to go for the house? Really?

Yeah. It gives us a bit more space.

And we're near work and the schools. Bex can have her old room back.

Oh, that's brilliant. Yeah, just needs a bit of love and attention, innit?

Oh, thanks. The price ain't bad.

We've just got to see if we can get out of our contract first.

What, and you think you will be able to?

Well, Martin's on to it.

Oh, great. Yeah.

I thought you were returning this shopping.

You've been splashing my cash again, haven't you?

My husband. My cash.

Which you was happy to throw away on parking fines.

Well, there won't be any more where that one came from.

What you done now?

You having this? Sylvie is moving into Shirley's.

What, with Auntie Tina?

Yeah. Do they want a hand unpacking?

Oh, no, not you, you're meant to be resting.

Oh, and I'm covering your shift later, an' all.

Yeah, go back to bed, go and have a lay in.

I just feel useless, don't I?

Listen to Grandad.

So, wish me luck!

Are you excited? First day of school again.

Well, play nicely and always share them crayons.

Oi, you job hunting today?

No, I'm covering Whitney's shift.

Oh, and stay away from them freshers. Leave off, Dad.

Proud of you, son.

Go on!

Oi, Johnny's right, you've got stuff to do.

Will you just take that and go put your feet up?

Go on.

All right.

Hi, Honey. Hey. Right, I took Denny to school.

Thought I could grab five minutes with the head. And?

Well, that receptionist should get a job as a bouncer.

Anyway, he said he'll see us all after school.

Brilliant. Well done, you.

We've got to get to the bottom of it.

I'll make sure they know what's going on so they can't just drop it.

Oh, and I got a copy of their anti-bullying policy.

Will and Denny don't have to put up with all this.

I know. Actually, do you fancy a cup of coffee? I'll pop the kettle on.

I've got to go and visit Phil in hospital. How's he doing?

Well, he's a bit better.

Would've been nice to have one anniversary at home at least.

Just that, darling? Yeah, cheers.

Thanks. Hi, darling.

You heard from your mum today?

Nan's spoiling her. She's, er...she's OK.

That's good.

Right, I'll call for you about four. OK.

Going to make sure the school find out who's doing this and punish

them, all right? Yeah. Definitely.

See you later. See you later.

May I be of any assistance?

Just checking where the dry-cleaning machines will fit.

We don't do dry-cleaning on the premises.

We send our dry-cleaning out.

Not for much longer.

Mr Opa-dopa... Junior is very particular.

I think you'll find you have the wrong launderette.

You...might want to speak with him. Mr Papadopoulos Junior.

Cos I want to get some lemon and limes. All right.

Is that all right? Yeah.

I know what the contract says, that's why I've been calling

all morning to see if there's anything I can do.

And some radishes for Whitney.

It's not like you're not gonna let it again though, is it? You know, places round here.

Was Stacey like that when pregnant? Eating loads of weird stuff?

I just want a bigger home for my family.

Him and Stace want Sonia's old house.

Tina moving out?

She's gone already.

She and her mum have moved in with Shirl, so...

Well, he'd better be quick.

Places round here, it's not going to stay empty for long.

Martin? Just let me know.

Radishes? Oh, sorry, mate. That's all right.

Martin, you don't think Bex could baby-sit later? I'll ask her.

Thank you. We've got a meeting at the school.

Looks like my Will might be getting bullied.

Oh, sorry, poor lad.

I can do it.

There you go. Look at that.

You...you sure? You don't have to. I'd like to.

Well, I would have asked you first but I thought, what with everything.

And next week. It'll be a relief not to be thinking

about it all for a couple of hours.

How's it going?

Well, my other half's run off, and the barmy mother's moved in.

Yeah, I heard.

So, yeah, everything's fine. Thanks for asking.

Look, if there's anything I can do to help.

Vincent! I said, come on.

Vincent, I can walk on my own!

Tell her. Tell me what?

Why are you making it into such a biggie? She stole your badge.

Look, I borrowed it! You went in my house?

I mean, you wasn't using it. D'you want my chair as well?

If you could fit your backside into it!

Er, respect the booty!

You stole my badge!

It's good to share.

You ain't disabled! Not yet.

So next you're gonna tell me that I can't use their toilets.

You can't use our toilets!

You use disabled toilets?

Only if they're empty.

You know, it's got more space for your shopping.

And they're so much cleaner. Oh, my gosh.

That ain't the point!

Have you seen the state of most ladies' loos?

Mate, I don't know how half the people get that stuff where they get it!

Do you want to spend a day in my chair?

See what it's like NOT to be able to go because

some stupid cow's in there cos it's got more space for her shopping?

Who you calling stupid?

D'you wanna have someone drive you around trying to find

a parking space...

Tell your sister not to talk to me like that.

..and then eventually when you do find one,

it's so far from the shops that it ain't worth it anyway?

All because the space you were supposed to be able to park in

is being used by some idiot woman with a stolen badge.

But you didn't need the space because you was here!

It ain't about me.

You just don't do it. It's wrong.

OK, I'm sorry.

OK? Here's your badge.

Never wanted it in the first place.

PHONE RINGS

What's the news?

Yes, I'll hold.

For a woman that can't remember if she's had her breakfast,

she certainly knows what day her bedsheets need changing.

What?

My mum's moved in.

Oh, dear. What's that, after your fishmonger friend's gone?

Tina can't cope on her own.

You're not as bad, Shirley Carter, as people make out.

Oh, hello? Yes? Yes, I'll be here.

Bye.

Bad news?

That depends on the fabric content of your wardrobe.

Mr Opodopo Junior,

he's having the place turned into a dry-cleaner's.

Why? Oh, market forces. New consortium. Moving with the times.

All that old balderdash.

Well, they're still gonna want you, Dot.

Well, it appears that I'm gonna be interviewed for my own job.

We can get out of our lease!

You're joking? No. It took eight different calls

but they're going to let us use a break clause.

Right... and the bit you're not telling me?

What bit?

Martin, I know you. It's written all over your face.

Right, it's like we thought. The clause says two months' rent.

So we are gonna have to use the deposit to cover it.

No, that's Kat's money!

We'll just have to find a new one.

They're gonna want a month at least. And then a month in advance.

Well, Belinda will give us some.

We've barely got any appointments. Kyle'll have a bit, won't he?

If he had any money, do you really think he'd be on our couch?

Just let me do the worrying.

All right?

I'm not late, am I?

No, Pam, I'm early.

This is so good of you.

It's my pleasure.

Hello. What shall we do?

Colouring? Ooh, that sounds lovely.

Right, we should be going.

Do you have to?

Denny's the same. I think they're scared there might be repercussions.

The school's on your side, sweetheart.

Just stay here. I'm here with you.

He won't even tell us who it is.

They're not going to get away with this, all right?

Whoever's making you unhappy,

whoever punched Denny, we're gonna... It was me.

It'd only be a loan.

Yeah, I know, but... Hiya, Jane.

I'm sorry, love, everyone's out.

It's all right, there you go.

Only for a couple of months. Not even that.

With Jane not working, OK...

I'm working every hour I can.

What do you need, Martin?

Rent deposit for Pat's old house.

At least part of it?

I'm sorry.

Please, Ian? I just want a home.

For my family.

Martin, I would love to, all right? But right now...

we can't do it.

Was he picking on you?

You are not blaming Denny.

Let him talk, Sharon. I should never have brought him back to Walford.

Denny's the victim here!

Shall we just listen?

Just talk to me if that makes it easier.

Why did you hit him?

He was laughing about Janet.

Calling her a...

Calling her names.

And what did you do?

I told him to stop. To leave her alone.

That must have really hurt.

But he was being really nasty and...and he said

he didn't know why she went to school at all...and...

And I lost my temper and I punched him. And he stopped.

So, what are you gonna do then, Shar?

Let me deal with Denny.

Why didn't you tell us, eh?

Will I get in trouble?

We'll...we'll go and talk to the head.

Well, is it still worth it?

Well, you're the one who told them there was a problem.

What are we gonna say? That we made it up now?

Do you want us to stay?

Go on. We'll be OK.

All right. Thanks, Pam.

Hey, sis.

Hey, this looks cosy. Oh, we're just talking.

Yeah, your mother was just telling me about our Kim.

Yeah, can you believe it?

I mean, that girl got no shame at all.

She's got about all of everything else.

Three of most.

Patrick was telling me he's surprised she's actually driving. Why?

Well, unless I'm mistaken, I mean, she never passed her test.

Hi, Jane. You all right?

I'm just gonna jump in the shower quickly before I got to go to work.

Steven, I was thinking, I want to look through the business accounts.

What for? Well, Martin was talking about a deposit.

And I'm just sat here doing nothing. I mean, he is family.

There must be some money somewhere.

What does Dad think?

Well, you know Ian.

And if I can't find anything, I can't.

But I could at least look through the cash flow and stuff?

Listen, I stink so...

I'll text Ian, get him to bring the laptop back.

It must be hard sometimes.

To have a sister that's different.

Everybody's different.

She's very lucky to have you looking out for her.

Are they going to exclude me?

That'd be a bit mean.

Will, if people are picking on her - or picking on you -

you really need to tell your mum and dad.

But I don't want them to worry.

It's their job to worry.

And I tell you what, however old you get, they'll not stop.

Sometimes when I'm feeling things sad, or angry, especially angry...

..I don't want to talk to anyone either. Why?

Because sometimes...sometimes I think, if I don't talk about it,

it'll go away.

But the thing about feelings is they don't.

They always come out in the end.

And sometimes, like you found with Dennis, they're in there

so long it always comes out wrong, as something else.

Have you ever hit anyone?

Hitting isn't the answer.

But have you?

No. But...I've wanted to.

SHE CHUCKLES

But sometimes I end up hitting myself.

Not really. But...inside.

Are you doing that now?

The thing about bullies is they're just as scared as you are.

And that means they don't always know what they're doing,

who they're hurting, how much.

And they won't ever know... if you're not brave enough -

not to punch them - but to tell them they're wrong.

If she looks through those accounts

she's going to find out what I've stolen.

Look, just tell them about your debts.

They'll throw us out.

You don't mind if I take this back to Jane, do you?

Dad, she doesn't want to be working.

She's got it into her head that she can make some savings somewhere.

All right, well, why don't I do it? You've got this place to run.

The last thing Jane wants to be doing is looking through accounts.

All right, suit yourself.

Where's all my stuff?

You're sitting on most of it.

All right?

Hello, Mum.

Poky little place, isn't it?

Well, you're lucky you're not Tina. She's bunked in with me.

It's very nice of Shirley to have us.

I ain't eating fish every day.

The fish man has gone.

Only thing Stan ever brings home.

Doesn't listen, your dad.

Dad's dead!

No. He don't listen, does he?

He'll want his...that thing.

Shirt. Ironing.

Go on. Go to work.

I'll see you later.

Oh, if Mick phones and he's looking for me,

tell him I've got something to do first. OK.

Yeah, no, it's a strong old turnip.

Yeah.

But Babe, she makes the veg orders.

Yeah, no, but I'll do you a good price, won't I?

I don't even know what's on the menu, son, to be honest.

This is seasonal veg, Mick, yeah? Locally sourced.

Yeah, what, from a barrow outside, yeah?

Yeah. Don't get more local, does it?

Go on, Mick, yeah? Just help us out?

All right, just whack it on my bill, I'll pay you at the end of the week.

I was hoping, erm... any chance of cash?

I mean, it's not as if she's proper disabled!

She can walk when she wants to.

That doesn't stop her being disabled.

Put some ice in that, please.

Ah, how was it?

So good to be back, honestly!

OK, you're a lawyer. What can I do to stop street harassment?

Keep off the streets?

How's the job hunt?

Oh, yeah, good. Good.

Lee, you heard from Shirl? She's meant to be starting at six.

Nope.

Patrick says you haven't even passed your test.

What? Patrick says a lot of things, yeah? It's his age.

So, so, so - he's lying?

I learnt with my mum. In Montserrat.

Montserrat? No test, no licence.

No, I've got a licence.

A professional licence.

So you can stick that in your glove compartment.

Provisional licence?

Means you ain't passed.

I thought you didn't want my case?

You're banned from driving.

Listen, you're not the police, you know. Well, you was.

Kind of.

Oh...

Until you pass your test, you ain't getting back in my car.

I mean, I ain't done an interview since Harold Wilson

was Prime Minister.

I think it's going to take more than a Battenburg.

I thought you wanted help to make her feel better?

I mean, I can get a stain out of a drip-dry anything.

But I don't know the first thing about dry-cleaning.

Well, you're not giving up, Dot.

Look, I don't want to be impolite, Shirley, but, you know,

washing your mother's sheets once in a blue moon - or anybody

else's - don't make you an expert on complex poly-whatsit fabrics.

I think we should do a dummy interview.

There's no need to be rude.

No, Dot, she don't mean you're a dummy.

Well, I'm sorry, Kath, but I heard her with my own ears!

I meant - like a practice run.

We can ask you things.

Yes, but you don't know what things.

Well, just - you know, the kind of things they ask.

Just in case the Battenburg don't work.

Sorry I'm late, Honey's meeting went over.

Did they get to the bottom of it?

That's the thing. It was Will.

Oh.

Dennis had been picking on him about Janet -

they're both going to be punished.

Honey said they were sympathetic to Will, but he did hit someone,

and they can't just do nothing.

DOORBELL BUZZES

He started it.

Don't lie to me.

Don't you dare lie to me after what you did.

It was just a joke.

And you think Janet found it funny?

Janet wasn't even there.

Oh, so that makes it all right?

I'm so disappointed in you, Denny.

He's the one who hit me.

You were cruel about his sister!

Now, I did not bring you up to be a bully.

I'm just doing what Phil does.

So, you back at work now?

Yeah.

Must be a lot for you. Without your dad.

I can manage. Two new temps.

We miss this.

Dinner.

Company.

You.

Pam and I, we were saying...

..this plea hearing next week.

You know they might plead not guilty? And at a trial,

they might get off.

They won't.

We need to find a way to deal with it.

To be able to move on.

They won't get off.

Ben's right.

Well, you don't know that.

I cannot do nothing.

I'm...

..going to visit them in jail. Talk to them, face-to-face.

Maybe we should borrow some. Martin!

You know, get a loan, or an overdraft.

Put it on some credit cards. No, we're not getting into debt.

Borrowing from family's one thing. That house is going to go.

Well, if it goes, it goes.

I've seen it happen to Kat and Alfie.

And I would rather live here cramped, on top of each other, than

have bailiffs knocking at my door, and scared to open my curtains.

I just want to look after you.

You know what it's like when you can't repay things.

You slept in your van.

That was a mortgage.

That was you taking on more than you could afford.

If it isn't our house, it isn't our house. I've got you.

I've got the kids. We'll be OK.

It's all right, love, it's only me.

Did you bring the laptop?

Steven's been all over the accounts.

I told you to bring them to me.

The chippy takings are down, all right?

The restaurant insurance is up.

There's just no spare money anywhere.

We must have something put away for something, Ian.

We've tried, OK?

But if the money's not there - it's not there.

Well, if we can't take the money out of the businesses...we go to plan B.

You're not listening to me, Pam.

No, you're not listening to me!

I went after them and I nearly got killed.

But that's not going to happen, is it? They're on remand.

Ben's right. I was like you, Pam, wanted revenge.

I don't want revenge!

So why do you want to see them?

I want them to know what they've done!

They've ruined our lives.

They've ruined your life.

They've taken our Paul and left him on the street.

I want them to know how that feels.

What, and you think I don't?

Two young men, who just wanted to love each other.

I want them to know what they've done.

And they won't know that if I don't tell them.

We cannot be silent!

We do that in court.

I want them to plead guilty.

To stand there and accept what they've done.

And we all want that. And it ain't going to happen.

You could mess up the whole trial.

I've known boys like this, all my life.

Oh, this is different and you know it. Why?

Because you're involved!

Because this is personal.

And if they do plead not guilty, it'll go to court anyway.

And you're going to have to relive it.

And I will. And they will go down.

And if they don't?

We do this properly. For Paul.

You cope in your own way.

This is different.

Trying to talk to them, you'll just get hurt.

And I will not watch you hurting any more.

Promise me.

Let it go.

There'll be other houses.

Not my old house. With my old room.

It's not your house.

DOORBELL RINGS I'll get it!

I think Bex is just a bit sad, Lil.

But I like her in my bedroom.

Yeah, but your bedroom's tiny.

You know, when girls get a bit older, sometimes they just need

a bit more space. Don't mean they get it.

Visitor.

Oh, if this is about me doing a deal on Mick's veg...

No, it's not, all right? Me and Jane have been talking and...

What deal with Mick on the veg?

Don't worry. Go on, you and Jane?

She can't drive, I'm banned until next year.

Go on, then, where do you want taking?

So, no... Jane has said we'll sell the car.

You can have the deposit.

Come here, I love you!

MIMICS DOT: "Well, yes, that's the thing, isn't it?"

Just stick to the question.

This is what one day living with Sylvie does to her.

"What was the question?"

The question what I just asked you.

"Oh, on how to delegate?"

I hope you're filming this, you!

Yeah, you taking notes?

I can do interviews.

Just saying.

Stick to the question!

"Well, there's not really anybody to delegate to, is there?

"I mean, there's only me and the soap dispenser."

Can't believe they're making her apply for her own job.

Oh, look, she'll be fine - you can't have a launderette without Dot.

No. It'd be like the Tower of London without the ravens!

Yeah.

No, I've got it sorted.

Yeah, I'll bring it round first thing in the morning.

What?

What's the problem?

The house has gone.

Pam. I know it's late.

Nonsense. I-I just wanted to see how Will is?

I'm OK now. Thank you.

Yeah, come on, boy, bedtime.

Night-night. Night, Pam.

Goodnight, darling. See you, Pam.

Pam?

I promised Les.

But I can't.

Can't what?

Say nothing. It's wrong.

You can't tell Les. You mustn't tell Les.

Tell him what?

I'm going to talk to the boys who killed Paul.

Hello, I'm Riz Lateef with your 90 second update.

A record ?5 million fine for the owners of Alton Towers.

It's claimed England manager Sam Allardyce offered advice on how

to get around player transfer rules.
