0:00:02 > 0:00:06Will you sign the house over to me? I need to get a loan for IVF.
0:00:06 > 0:00:07I asked you not to.
0:00:07 > 0:00:10Well, you don't need to worry about it any more because he said no.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12- Francis? - Most people call me Frank.
0:00:12 > 0:00:14I'm sorry, Frank...
0:00:14 > 0:00:18I split up from my boyfriend. I just want to go home.
0:00:18 > 0:00:20Stay away from my daughter.
0:00:20 > 0:00:21You remember Mrs Barratt?
0:00:21 > 0:00:25I thought we could ask her to take Violet in before she starts to show.
0:00:27 > 0:00:28Poppy!
0:00:28 > 0:00:31- You should come to America with me. - I've got children.
0:00:31 > 0:00:33Then you should all come with me.
0:00:33 > 0:00:38'Oh, I heard a shocking thing this morning.'
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Police found a dead body in the canal.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43That belter of a wife of yours,
0:00:43 > 0:00:47bet she wouldn't say no to being with a real man for a change.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52You should never have threatened her, Billy.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54What am I going to do with you, hey?
0:01:19 > 0:01:24My name is Frank and this is my family home, 32 Brinkburn Street.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28It's 1931, the year before I was born,
0:01:28 > 0:01:32when the world was a very different place to what it is today.
0:01:32 > 0:01:38This is the story of my family, then and now.
0:02:15 > 0:02:19I was worried about you. When you didn't come back for your tea, I thought...
0:02:19 > 0:02:20There's nothing to worry about.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22There was someone following me, but I managed to get rid of them.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25The same people who killed your friend?
0:02:25 > 0:02:29Listen, this time tomorrow I'll be on that ship to America and this'll be all over.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Then in a couple of weeks we'll be together always.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34You'll be sick of me by Christmas.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38I still can't believe you said yeah.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46DOOR OPENS
0:02:49 > 0:02:55So you don't forget about me when you're with all those American girls. I know it's nothing...
0:02:55 > 0:02:57I'll look after it for you.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00One less thing for you to pack.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Go.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Have a good run?
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Yeah, cleared a few cobwebs.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49- You didn't sleep at all, did you? - Well, a bit.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52What do you think? Not really.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54Me neither, well not much, anyway.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56But you know what?
0:03:56 > 0:03:59At least we know she's all right.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02- What, one text?! - Well, it's better than nothing.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06Nick, I know that you're thinking this is the end of the world,
0:04:06 > 0:04:09but it could be a lot worse. We know where Poppy is, we know she's safe.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12Safely in that boy's bed.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16I know it's hard for you, love, but...
0:04:16 > 0:04:20- You think it's my fault. - I never said that.
0:04:20 > 0:04:26- You're probably right.- Look, she's putting you through this to prove a point, but she will come home.
0:04:26 > 0:04:30Till then, you and I've got to cope the best we can.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35- She rung?- No.- Oh.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39Well, chin up, Nick. Who'd be a parent, eh?
0:04:47 > 0:04:49In a way it's a pity you're going.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52Your being here keeps him on his toes at least.
0:04:52 > 0:04:57Back to his bone idle self the minute you walk out the door.
0:04:57 > 0:05:01Talking of bone idle, that Billy Lamb's place
0:05:01 > 0:05:04hasn't been open for a while. You wouldn't know anything about that, would you?
0:05:04 > 0:05:07I've told you, I'm not friends with that man.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09We just went for a few drinks, that's all.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16- Well, I'd better finish packing. - You'll be keeping that wireless, I take it?
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Thought I might leave it as a present for the family.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22Oh, actually, I'll leave this too.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27- Very kind. - New York'll be very nice.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Yeah, it'll be wonderful.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33Can I take a photo? Please! Please!
0:05:33 > 0:05:35I don't see why not.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Stand next to Mam.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Smile!
0:06:14 > 0:06:15Frank?
0:06:15 > 0:06:17- Sorry.- Who the devil are you?
0:06:29 > 0:06:33What's the point? We don't even know his address.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36No, but we do know where he studies.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Someone might know him.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Come on, it's something.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46So this is the young whippersnapper your father's been hunting down.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Well, don't fret. His bark's worse than his bite.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51- I hope. - Yeah, he'd better not go off on one.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55I wouldn't bet on it. Oh. If I were you, I'd do a runner, mate.
0:06:55 > 0:06:56I don't believe it. You, in.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59You, disappear, now!
0:06:59 > 0:07:00- No, just stay there! - Move it!
0:07:00 > 0:07:04No, because if he goes, I go with him.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Don't push it, young lady.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06- All right, Nick, come on. - All right what?
0:07:06 > 0:07:11I've been sitting in there for days worrying myself sick and he just swans in here, standing there...
0:07:11 > 0:07:13He? He? He has a name, you know.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16- I told you he'd be like this, I knew it.- Look, just get in.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18- You, you are so close, young man! - Stop threatening him! Stop it!
0:07:18 > 0:07:21- Threatening him? I'm going to kill him.- Stop it!
0:07:21 > 0:07:22Do you have any idea what you put us through?
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- You are such a selfish little girl. - How am I selfish?
0:07:25 > 0:07:27- You went behind my back. - Just stop it, please.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31- Do you realise how much trouble you're in? How old she is?- I do, yeah. Which is why I haven't...
0:07:31 > 0:07:33- How old are you again? - Right, stop it, Nick, come on.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- No, I want to hear him say it. How old are you?- Stop it! Stop it now!
0:07:36 > 0:07:41Listen to yourselves, having a slanging match in the back yard.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45You, you call yourself a family?
0:07:45 > 0:07:50Well, I won't put up with it, do you hear? Not in my house, not ever.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53You either start acting like human beings or you get out.
0:08:00 > 0:08:04What the hell was that, Nick? Do you really think that's...
0:08:04 > 0:08:08- What are you doing?- Something I should have done a long time ago.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10What, you're leaving us? Running away?
0:08:10 > 0:08:13It's not like anyone needs me here.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Everyone just ignores everything I say or do.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17You don't listen to me, Poppy doesn't listen to me...
0:08:17 > 0:08:21- So you think you're just going to leave us both, do you? - I'm sure you'll be fine without me.
0:08:21 > 0:08:25Listen to yourself, Nick. This isn't the answer.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30Do you need me, Ellie?
0:08:30 > 0:08:31What?
0:08:31 > 0:08:34Really?
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Do you need me?
0:08:42 > 0:08:46You're not leaving me. You're not leaving me.
0:08:46 > 0:08:50- You're not leaving.- I...
0:08:50 > 0:08:55You've got to stop beating yourself up, all right?
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Poppy doesn't want a perfect dad and I don't want a perfect husband.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00We just want you, love.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Why would anyone want me?
0:09:11 > 0:09:15I made you some sandwiches for the journey.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28Three whole weeks without you. I don't know how I'm going to cope.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30You'll be busy finding us somewhere to live.
0:09:30 > 0:09:35I'll write as soon as I get settled. I'm going to look after you, Gracie.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38I'm going to give you and the kids the best life I possibly can.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42- Will you meet me in the park before I go? Half ten?- Course I will.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Oh, sorry. I thought you'd gone.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51That's all right. I suppose you can't wait to get your old room back, eh?
0:09:51 > 0:09:55Can't all go to America, can we? Don't forget these.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Thanks.
0:09:58 > 0:10:03Well, that'll be me off then.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Look after yourselves, yeah?
0:10:11 > 0:10:13And all the best.
0:10:22 > 0:10:27I mean, look at me - a self-made man(!)
0:10:27 > 0:10:30A business practically bankrupt, debts up to my eyeballs,
0:10:30 > 0:10:33daughter that can't stand the sight of me...
0:10:33 > 0:10:34That's not true. She came back.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Probably because she ran out of money.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40No, because she wanted to see you. Because she loves you.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44I just never feel good enough.
0:10:44 > 0:10:48Well, start to, all right?
0:10:50 > 0:10:55I was thinking. Waiting for this baby,
0:10:57 > 0:10:59I know it's been a pressure on everybody.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04So I was thinking that maybe, you know, we should both of us,
0:11:06 > 0:11:08maybe we should take a bit of time...
0:11:12 > 0:11:14..and think about what we have got.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17I do need you, I do.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20And Poppy needs you too.
0:11:22 > 0:11:30And if or when... we have a baby of our own,
0:11:30 > 0:11:35he or she will love you just as much as we do.
0:11:37 > 0:11:42But we're not much of a family if you keep packing a bag every time things get rough, are we?
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Who knows what's going to happen, eh?
0:11:46 > 0:11:51But whatever, I do need you with me.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55We do this together, Nick.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18- You seem a bit preoccupied today, Joy.- Do I?
0:12:18 > 0:12:21I'm just feeling a little sick, that's all.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25- Where are your reading glasses? - Homesick?
0:12:27 > 0:12:31All that I'm saying is, maybe it's time you saw your family again.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34- I told you it's not that easy, Frank.- Why?
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Because you're not supposed to be here in the first place?
0:12:38 > 0:12:41Dr Mitchell told me. I know, Joy.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45- You know what? - Why didn't you tell me?
0:12:45 > 0:12:47I know you're here illegally.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Right.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53Is it true?
0:12:54 > 0:12:56No...
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Yes... Sort of.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00And the right answer is?
0:13:10 > 0:13:15I came here on a two-year visa. I worked as a nurse,
0:13:15 > 0:13:21and then when my visa ran out I'd already met someone
0:13:21 > 0:13:24and I couldn't stand the thought of leaving.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28- So I stayed.- Why?
0:13:28 > 0:13:31- You're a clever woman. - I know it was stupid.
0:13:31 > 0:13:35Not just the visa. I mean, why stay for a weasel like Dr Mitchell?
0:13:35 > 0:13:37You know about that too?
0:13:37 > 0:13:42Yeah. I saw you the other day in the hallway.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44He's married, Joy.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47I know, but I didn't know when we first got together.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53And you can't just turn off your feelings.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56No luck or love ever came from an affair.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00As soon as you knew he was with someone you should have left well alone.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15- What do you think you're doing? - Nana's cold.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16I'll go.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36HE COUGHS
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Can I have a moment alone with Poppy, please?
0:15:14 > 0:15:17I shouldn't have had a go like that. I'm sorry.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Do you want to say it like you mean it?
0:15:19 > 0:15:23- I do mean it, Pops. - Right, so you're not just saying it because Ellie told you to?
0:15:23 > 0:15:27The thing is... The thing is, Poppy,
0:15:27 > 0:15:31I just worry. There's such a big age gap between the two of you.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34- There's three years and two months. - That's a lot at your age.
0:15:34 > 0:15:38- What, so you think he's using me? - You're underage, Poppy. - So that's a yes then.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41I know you think this is some great big love affair...
0:15:41 > 0:15:44How could it be? Oh no, he couldn't possibly just want me for me.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47I know you're on the pill, Poppy.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55I know that you're...
0:15:55 > 0:15:58- Active.- Active!
0:15:59 > 0:16:01- I'm serious. - Yes, Dad, and so are we!
0:16:02 > 0:16:05You know, for the record, we haven't even actually had sex yet.
0:16:05 > 0:16:09And it was Mikey's idea for us not to.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13I'm not saying that it's going to last forever.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15No, actually I am.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18- Yeah, it will. Do you know why? Because I love him.- You love him.
0:16:18 > 0:16:23No, I do. And we'd still be together now if he hadn't brought me back here.
0:16:26 > 0:16:31Well, it shows he has some sense, I suppose.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Dad, why would I go out with anyone who doesn't have sense?
0:16:39 > 0:16:42OK, all right.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47I'll give him a chance, OK?
0:16:49 > 0:16:51- I may have been a bit over the top. - A bit?
0:16:51 > 0:16:53Don't push it, young lady.
0:17:01 > 0:17:06- I don't know what to do.- Do what you should have done months ago. Go home, back to your family.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10Train to be the doctor you want to be.
0:17:10 > 0:17:15I can't. My ticket expired and it's not like I can afford another one.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19No, but, er, but I can.
0:17:21 > 0:17:27- You're not serious?- I'm upset that you haven't been totally honest with me, but I want to help.
0:17:27 > 0:17:32You know, Joy, I've only known you a short time but you've certainly lived up to your name.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34I can't take that.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36You can and you will.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39Call it a bonus. For your family.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41I don't know what to say.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Well, say you'll take me into town.
0:17:43 > 0:17:47I've got to go to the bank anyway, I've got another little surprise up my sleeve.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51He's a mean soul, your husband.
0:17:51 > 0:17:57If he put three pieces of coal on that fire, it'd be three more than he wanted to.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01- I'll bank it up before I go. - Go where?
0:18:01 > 0:18:04I'm just nipping to the Co-op. We need some eggs.
0:18:04 > 0:18:08- Oh, I'll come too.- No, I want you to stay and look after Nora.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Oh, we'll both come.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12It's raining.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14It's not raining.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18It's cloudy and cold. Stay put, please.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Oh, well, please yourself.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37SHE COUGHS
0:18:53 > 0:18:57SHE SCREAMS
0:19:04 > 0:19:05Who?
0:19:05 > 0:19:08Who is it?
0:19:08 > 0:19:09Walter!
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Billy Lamb.
0:19:12 > 0:19:13You'll let me freeze to death up here.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17Sorry, Mam, the door was a bit stiff. I'll bring it up in a minute.
0:19:17 > 0:19:22Actually, Mam, would you mind nipping to the Co-op for me after all?
0:19:22 > 0:19:23I'll look after Nora.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Well, make your bloomin' mind up.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27FOOTSTEPS LEAVE
0:19:40 > 0:19:41You'll hang for this.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50I mean, even if the police don't lynch you,
0:19:50 > 0:19:51Billy Lamb's cronies will.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59I got into such a mess, Gracie.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02A mess? A mess?!
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Is that what you call this?
0:20:05 > 0:20:08Billy Lamb's body is lying in our cellar.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11What was going on between you and him?
0:20:13 > 0:20:15He was never away from the door.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17So?
0:20:22 > 0:20:24I owed him some money.
0:20:24 > 0:20:29It started off as nothing, just a few bob here and there,
0:20:30 > 0:20:34- but I just kept getting in deeper and deeper.- Gambling?
0:20:34 > 0:20:36- I knew it. - I know I should have told you,
0:20:38 > 0:20:41but how do you admit that someone's got control over you?
0:20:44 > 0:20:46He just wanted more and more.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Started making me do jobs for him.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02A few days ago on a job,
0:21:02 > 0:21:04I ran, left him.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09- The police came. - That's why he was looking for you.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12He was mad.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14Made me sign the house over to him.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21He threatened you and Violet.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23So you killed him?
0:21:25 > 0:21:30What kind of man would I be if I'd stood back and watched him destroy my family?
0:21:33 > 0:21:34You.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39The girls.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41This house.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46They mean everything to me.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49I wasn't going to let him take that.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54- Walter...- Don't worry.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58I'm going to hand myself in.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04- I don't want any of this coming back on you and the girls.- It's not that.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06I won't leave you with much,
0:22:06 > 0:22:08but you'll have the house.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10I'll make this right.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17I don't want you to hand yourself in.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21We'll think of something.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24DOOR OPENS
0:22:24 > 0:22:29Oh, I see. You send me out to do some shopping so you can have a nice drink.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32Sit down, Mam.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Please.
0:22:43 > 0:22:48So can Mikey stay the night? In separate rooms, of course.
0:22:48 > 0:22:53Hear that strange scraping sound? It's the sound of luck being pushed.
0:22:57 > 0:23:01- All right.- Thanks, Mr Milliner. - Nick, please.
0:23:01 > 0:23:02Oh! Peace has broke out.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05Right, me and Joy are just nipping out for a bit.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08So don't do anything I wouldn't do.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22I won't be long.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24What have you done?
0:23:27 > 0:23:30You have to believe me. I did it for the right reasons.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Well, I wish my Harold was here,
0:23:34 > 0:23:37because I'm scared.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49I'm scared too.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54But now's not the time to fall apart.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59Come on, where's that tough old bird I'm used to?
0:24:01 > 0:24:03I'm going to sort this.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09I've got everything but the candlesticks. It's too risky.
0:24:12 > 0:24:13Make sure you're not seen.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Take this for the plaster.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Thanks.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49Oh, hello?
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Yeah, is that Fairfield Lodge?
0:24:51 > 0:24:55No, I was just calling to make a general enquiry, really.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Hey, hey.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11For a horrible moment there, I thought you weren't going to come.
0:25:13 > 0:25:19Hey, no frowns on that beautiful face.
0:25:20 > 0:25:25It's not going to be long now. We're going to be together, and we're going to be free.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27I'm sorry.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31What?
0:25:31 > 0:25:33What is it, the kids?
0:25:33 > 0:25:37You know I'll really look after them. I'm going to work hard and I'm going to...
0:25:39 > 0:25:41Listen to me.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44Listen to me. I love you.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47I love you.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50I know this is big step, but you know it's the right one, don't you?
0:25:52 > 0:25:57- Sweetheart, if you don't tell me what it is, I'm not going to get on the ship.- He's killed someone.
0:25:57 > 0:25:58Walter, he killed Billy Lamb.
0:25:58 > 0:26:04He did it to protect the house, to protect us. I don't know what to do.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06- I'll sort this. - You know you can't stay!
0:26:06 > 0:26:08- They'll find you.- I don't care.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10I'm not leaving him, Francis.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16Walter, my family, they need me here.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19I have to stay here.
0:26:19 > 0:26:23There's no man alive that needs you more than I do.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26I can't live my life without you, Gracie.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28I'm not going to lose you now.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Don't you love me?
0:26:30 > 0:26:35You know I do. But what difference does love make now?
0:26:35 > 0:26:37It means everything!
0:26:37 > 0:26:41In a minute, you're going to walk away from me, and it's going to kill me.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44But I can't leave my family.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56There's three tickets in here for America.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02They're valid for a month, OK?
0:27:05 > 0:27:07If you don't use them, you can sell the tickets.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19I think you're going to be needing this.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28You're so beautiful.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Please don't make this worse.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49One flight home, Dr Joy.
0:27:49 > 0:27:53Thank you so much, Frank. I can't believe I'm going to see everyone again.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55Will you be in trouble?
0:27:55 > 0:27:57Here, I mean, you know, with the visa and that.
0:27:57 > 0:28:01Oh, no. They don't have a problem with you leaving the country.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04You should come and visit.
0:28:04 > 0:28:10- The weather would do you good, and I'll tell everyone about the wonderful Frank Ogilvie.- You do that.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13I can't thank you enough, Frank.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16You can thank me by not selling yourself short ever again.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19I promise. I won't.
0:28:24 > 0:28:29- You said you'd look after the kids for me.- You don't even have to ask.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34No. But there is something I do need to ask you.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52DOOR OPENS
0:29:52 > 0:29:55Joy. You really should start making appointments, you know.
0:29:55 > 0:29:59Is there something I can help you with?
0:30:04 > 0:30:06Shame on you.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09You're spineless.
0:30:09 > 0:30:13You lied to me. You lied to your family.
0:30:14 > 0:30:17You're pathetic.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27- Oh, hello, Dad. No Joy? - No, she had to go home.
0:30:27 > 0:30:31- Oh. Nothing serious, I hope? - No, she's fine.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33- Where are all the crisps? - There aren't any.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36I go away for two days, and you've stopped shopping for me?
0:30:36 > 0:30:39- Shoot me.- Dad, can we have some money?- No.
0:30:39 > 0:30:40Well, me and Mikey need to get some paint.
0:30:40 > 0:30:44- What do you need paint for?- To cover that wallpaper, it's well creepy.
0:30:44 > 0:30:48- Have you asked Frank?- Frank. Please can I paint it, please?
0:30:48 > 0:30:51- Course you can.- Or, even better, can I have the attic as a little flat?
0:30:51 > 0:30:54I thought that made you scared.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57Sorry. God, it's years since anybody slept up there.
0:30:57 > 0:31:01We used to have loads of lodgers, but nobody ever settled.
0:31:01 > 0:31:05- That's because it's skanky. - Go on, then.
0:31:05 > 0:31:07Ellie, do you want to help me pick the colours?
0:31:07 > 0:31:10- Yeah, course I will.- OK.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12Dad?
0:31:12 > 0:31:14Tester pots!
0:31:18 > 0:31:20Thanks. Come on.
0:31:20 > 0:31:24- See you all later. - See you, Michael. Nice to see you.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26See you.
0:31:29 > 0:31:31There's something I've got to tell you.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33Here.
0:31:36 > 0:31:38Well, it won't open itself.
0:31:46 > 0:31:48You're kidding me.
0:31:48 > 0:31:53I learned a long time ago never to kid, especially when it comes to money matters.
0:31:53 > 0:31:54Dad!
0:31:54 > 0:31:56Give over.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01Frank! Are you sure about this?
0:32:01 > 0:32:06Well, I mean, it's got noisy pipes, creaking floorboards and, yeah,
0:32:06 > 0:32:08I'll admit, dodgy wallpaper.
0:32:08 > 0:32:13And maybe it has seen better days, but let's face it, we all have.
0:32:13 > 0:32:15What made you change your mind?
0:32:15 > 0:32:21Well, there's always been a strong family at the heart of this house,
0:32:21 > 0:32:24and I know there still will be.
0:32:24 > 0:32:29I mean, it's not the coming together, it's the staying together that counts.
0:32:31 > 0:32:33I can't believe it.
0:32:33 > 0:32:38- Oh, Dad, we're going to look after you so well. - I haven't told you the best bit.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41I'm going into a nursing home.
0:32:41 > 0:32:43I'm going for a viewing on Monday.
0:32:43 > 0:32:47No, you're not. No way. You're not going anywhere.
0:32:47 > 0:32:50My mind's made up.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59All done.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03Had a job getting the plaster.
0:33:03 > 0:33:06Had to borrow half the tools off Ronnie Fox.
0:33:14 > 0:33:16Elizabeth.
0:33:16 > 0:33:18I am sorry for all this.
0:33:25 > 0:33:27When Gracie married you,
0:33:29 > 0:33:32I told her she was making the biggest mistake of her life.
0:33:34 > 0:33:36I thought you were spineless.
0:33:38 > 0:33:42That's why I wouldn't let you have the house. I knew you'd gamble it away.
0:33:44 > 0:33:49But...maybe I have underestimated you.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52DOOR CLOSES
0:33:54 > 0:33:56Maybe you're not so spineless after all.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22"Take down this book And slowly read
0:34:22 > 0:34:27"And dream of the soft look your eyes had once
0:34:27 > 0:34:30"And of their shadows deep."
0:34:32 > 0:34:35"How many loved your moments of glad grace
0:34:35 > 0:34:40"And loved your beauty with love false or true?"
0:34:42 > 0:34:47"But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you
0:34:47 > 0:34:51"And loved the sorrows of your changing face.
0:34:51 > 0:34:54"And bending down beside the glowing bars

0:35:04 > 0:35:07"And hid his face amid a crowd of stars."
0:35:24 > 0:35:28Yeah, most of this can go to charity.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33What?
0:35:33 > 0:35:36I feel mercenary, it's like we're pushing you out of your own home.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39Give your tongue a rest, it's what I want.
0:35:39 > 0:35:41- It's my choice.- I know it is, but...
0:35:41 > 0:35:45It's a chance for you, Ellie, to be a family, remortgage,
0:35:45 > 0:35:48use the money for IVF, whatever you want.
0:35:48 > 0:35:52I want you to stay, Dad.
0:35:52 > 0:35:54How can we live here without you, eh?
0:35:54 > 0:35:59- You talk about being a family - you're part of the team too. - I'm on the bench now.
0:36:01 > 0:36:05Too ill to stay here, darling.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07I'm not going to get any better.
0:36:10 > 0:36:11Dad!
0:36:16 > 0:36:19If I didn't love you so much, I'd shake you.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22So you agree I'm right.
0:36:29 > 0:36:32OK.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34There's one condition, then, right?
0:36:36 > 0:36:38I'm not having you go just anywhere.
0:36:38 > 0:36:43We find the best place, and we use money from the house to pay for it.
0:36:45 > 0:36:48You drive a hard bargain.
0:36:49 > 0:36:53Come on. This stuff won't sort itself out.
0:36:53 > 0:36:56Give us that.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13Are you sure it's OK for me to come back in here?
0:37:13 > 0:37:15Before Blackpool, I mean?
0:37:25 > 0:37:27- Sit down.- What is it?
0:37:36 > 0:37:38America?
0:37:38 > 0:37:39But why are you giving me this?
0:37:39 > 0:37:41This is your choice, Violet.
0:37:41 > 0:37:44Whatever you want, I'll stand by you.
0:37:44 > 0:37:49But if you go to Blackpool, make no mistake, you're going there to hide.
0:37:49 > 0:37:54And the shame of this baby will follow both of you through your lives.
0:37:54 > 0:37:59But if you go to New York, you'll step off that boat your own woman.
0:37:59 > 0:38:02It's your chance to escape that shame.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05No snide comments, no spiteful stares.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09You've got to be brave, Vi.
0:38:10 > 0:38:12I'll always be with you.
0:38:12 > 0:38:14Always.
0:38:16 > 0:38:17But I won't know anybody.
0:38:19 > 0:38:21You will.
0:38:22 > 0:38:25I've kept your secret, Vi.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27Now you have to keep mine.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31- So who's Sid?- I don't know.
0:38:31 > 0:38:35I wasn't even born then. Must be from your mother's side of the family.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38No, but that's at your house. It's like I'm looking at you.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41Grandma Gracie looks like she knows him very well.
0:38:45 > 0:38:48Can I keep this, Dad?
0:38:48 > 0:38:52Yeah, you can have anything you like from me, love. Anything.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57'Why can't we, though?'
0:38:57 > 0:38:59Too messy a job.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03What is there to mess up?
0:39:04 > 0:39:07I reckon it's probably structural.
0:39:07 > 0:39:11Actually, it's not. The load bearing wall's on the other side.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14Oh, come on, Dad. It'll make the room look miles cooler.
0:39:14 > 0:39:16- Cooler?- Oh, please?
0:39:24 > 0:39:26I think I'll need a bigger hammer.
0:39:39 > 0:39:40It's ready.
0:39:46 > 0:39:48I'll get some sheets.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54- Where are we going?- Don't open your eyes, just keep them closed.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57OK, open them.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02You look ridiculous!
0:40:10 > 0:40:13- Step back, young man. - Hang on. You know what?
0:40:13 > 0:40:17Dad's got to see this, hasn't he? I've got to get Dad, just wait one minute.
0:40:19 > 0:40:21What are you doing?
0:40:21 > 0:40:23Go and play out the front.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26You want me to go up there? You must be kidding.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28It's like climbing Mount Everest.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36Well, I won't miss them stairs.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41Blimey, it's Action Man.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44- Told you it would be worth it, didn't I?- OK.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54Here we go.
0:41:14 > 0:41:16One more should do it, I think.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18Right you are.
0:41:29 > 0:41:32No one talks about this. Ever.
0:41:35 > 0:41:36There's something in there.
