0:00:44 > 0:00:46HE COUGHS

0:00:48 > 0:00:51KNOCKING ON DOOR

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Can you let me in so we can talk about this?

0:00:55 > 0:00:59You do realise that, legally speaking, you're now trespassing?

0:01:02 > 0:01:04What's going on?

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Don't say I didn't warn you!

0:01:06 > 0:01:09You're leaving whether you like it or not.

0:01:09 > 0:01:10Is Mr Jones being evicted?

0:01:10 > 0:01:13Just tell him to go before I have to get the police involved.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15This should all be rubble by now.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21Mr Jones? This is Dr Khella from the surgery.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24Can you open the door, please?

0:01:24 > 0:01:26Mr Jones?

0:01:27 > 0:01:30(She gone?)

0:01:30 > 0:01:31Yeah.

0:01:32 > 0:01:35Good. You better come inside.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43- Oh, come on. It's tradition. - OK. But just don't let him do

0:01:43 > 0:01:47Fried Green Tomatoes At The Whistle Stop Cafe because we're not going to have time for Christmas dinner.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49- Triv then!- Dad hates Trivia.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52He only plays it cos he knows how much you like to show off.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54Ooh. It's not long now.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57- Hmm?- It's A Wonderful Life on the telly,

0:01:57 > 0:02:02Jack and Immie home for good, eating chocolate till it leaks out of your ears.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04I can't wait. Are you doing anything special?

0:02:04 > 0:02:06When?

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Christmas! Earth to Kevin. Are you OK?

0:02:09 > 0:02:13Yeah. Actually, no. I'm not feeling great.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16- Do you want me to see if one of the doctors...?- No. I think I'm going to head home.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18Sleep it off. I've got paperwork anyway.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30- Sorry.- You know,

0:02:30 > 0:02:33all this dust probably isn't helping to shift that cough.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39How's your angina been?

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Playing up a bit, I suppose.

0:02:42 > 0:02:47Last attack was Sunday lunchtime, I think.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50That's right. I dropped my can of beans.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52Hardly sounds like you were exerting yourself.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54And your blood pressure's pretty high.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56How long have you had the cough?

0:02:56 > 0:02:59A while. Since I had that fall.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01That's when you were admitted to hospital?

0:03:01 > 0:03:02That's right.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04They tricked me.

0:03:04 > 0:03:05Surely they can't do that?

0:03:05 > 0:03:08My own stupid fault.

0:03:08 > 0:03:13My daughter persuaded me to give them temporary power of attorney.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16Wasn't sure how long I'd be in the hospital.

0:03:17 > 0:03:21They signed the purchase order on this place without telling me

0:03:21 > 0:03:25and tried to ship me off to some magnolia box

0:03:25 > 0:03:27on the other side of town.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30"Luxury flat" my backside.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35Didn't take me long to get back in here, though.

0:03:41 > 0:03:42Well?

0:03:44 > 0:03:47Could be a chest infection, possibly even pneumonia.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49Either way, if your angina's becoming unstable,

0:03:49 > 0:03:52we need to get you into hospital for further some tests.

0:03:52 > 0:03:53I can't leave here.

0:03:53 > 0:03:54I'm serious, Mr Jones.

0:03:54 > 0:03:58What difference does it make? I know I'm dying.

0:03:58 > 0:04:00There's no need to get carried away.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03It's fine. I don't mind.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06Till then, I'm staying put.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09- But living like this...- You think this is the way I want to live?

0:04:10 > 0:04:11Blame that lot out there!

0:04:13 > 0:04:15Sorry.

0:04:16 > 0:04:20I'll do a referral for a hospital appointment, but...

0:04:20 > 0:04:21I can't force you to go.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23I've got another patient to visit,

0:04:23 > 0:04:27but I'll come back later with something to help your chest.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29While I'm gone, you should think about whether this place

0:04:29 > 0:04:32is really worth dying for.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34And lay off the whisky.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41KNOCKING ON DOOR

0:04:42 > 0:04:46- Ta da!- What a lovely surprise!

0:04:46 > 0:04:49- Awww. Shouldn't you be at work? - I've taken the day off.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52- Everything OK?- Yeah. I wanted to talk to you about something.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55In that case, I'd better put the kettle on.

0:04:58 > 0:05:01Come on then. What's up?

0:05:02 > 0:05:04I don't want you to get upset, OK?

0:05:06 > 0:05:09- What's happened? - You mustn't feel like...

0:05:09 > 0:05:12I don't know, like I've betrayed you or something cos it's not like that.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16Sweetheart, you're scaring me. What is it? Come on, spit it out.

0:05:19 > 0:05:23I've decided to go to New York for Christmas with some mates.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25Oh.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28- All of Christmas?- I'm really sorry.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31I know I normally come round here, but...they've asked me and I said yes.

0:05:31 > 0:05:35- It's all right.- Really?- Absolutely.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38Actually, Denise and her lot are going to this swanky hotel place.

0:05:38 > 0:05:39She asked if I'd go with her.

0:05:39 > 0:05:41So I'll be fine.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Maybe we can have a get-together when you get back?

0:05:43 > 0:05:46There's no such thing as too many Christmas dinners, hey?

0:05:46 > 0:05:50You looked so worried, you daft thing. Come here.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53Hey, I'll be expecting a fab present though.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56- And I'll want some duty free and all.- Yeah, of course.

0:05:58 > 0:06:02No! Really?!

0:06:02 > 0:06:03That's terrible.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05It's Rob's sister.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09And will you not get any of the money back?

0:06:12 > 0:06:14Our place?!

0:06:14 > 0:06:16Um...

0:06:16 > 0:06:19Well, we'd love to, but...

0:06:19 > 0:06:22are you sure you want to come? I always burn everything.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24It's a pretty full house this year.

0:06:25 > 0:06:29No, it's Jack and Immie and my dad's coming as well.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33No. Yeah, well, I suppose you could.

0:06:33 > 0:06:38No? Well, lovely. The more the merrier.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40And Aunty Ag?

0:06:44 > 0:06:46KNOCKING ON DOOR

0:06:49 > 0:06:52Oh. It's you again.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55Confirmation that enforcement officers are coming to remove you

0:06:55 > 0:06:57from the property this afternoon.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00What? They're going to drag an old man onto the street?

0:07:00 > 0:07:02If they have to.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04If the officers meet with excessive resistance,

0:07:04 > 0:07:08- the police will assist them to... - Why do you hate me so much?

0:07:08 > 0:07:10Hate you? I don't hate you.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13- You always want everything your own way, don't you?- Look at you!

0:07:13 > 0:07:16It's pathetic, holing yourself up in this stinking pit.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18- You're pathetic!- Don't be...

0:07:18 > 0:07:21Do you have any idea how bad you smell?

0:07:21 > 0:07:22- HE COUGHS - What's wrong?

0:07:22 > 0:07:24What is it? What do you want?

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Spray.

0:07:31 > 0:07:35I'm so sorry. I'm calling an ambulance.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37No!

0:07:37 > 0:07:38I won't go.

0:07:38 > 0:07:39That doctor then?

0:07:45 > 0:07:48Hi. Yeah, I need to get hold of one of your doctors.

0:07:49 > 0:07:51It's my dad...

0:07:54 > 0:07:56So, come on then. Who's the latest?

0:07:56 > 0:07:58No-one.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00I can tell you've not slept! Who is she?

0:08:02 > 0:08:03Well...

0:08:03 > 0:08:07- I knew it.- There is someone, but it's not like that.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09- You always say that.- Seriously.

0:08:12 > 0:08:13Her name's Nadia.

0:08:16 > 0:08:17She's my half-sister.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21She found me.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Turned up out of the blue, said she wanted to get to know me.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28I've got a half-brother too. Zarif.

0:08:29 > 0:08:30I see.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34- I've seen him, Mum. - Zarif? What's he like?

0:08:35 > 0:08:37No, I mean, yeah, I've met Zarif, but...

0:08:40 > 0:08:42My dad.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45I've seen my dad.

0:08:51 > 0:08:53You've got absolutely nothing to say to each other?

0:08:55 > 0:09:00Mum's not coming back. You know that, don't you?

0:09:00 > 0:09:03Of course I know that! What do you take me for?

0:09:04 > 0:09:07She always said I spoiled you.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09She was right.

0:09:11 > 0:09:12Clyde?

0:09:15 > 0:09:18This was our home...

0:09:19 > 0:09:20..our whole married life.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25I don't want to live anywhere else.

0:09:26 > 0:09:30And I don't want any of your bloomin' chrome taps

0:09:30 > 0:09:32and waste disposal.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35And you had no right tricking me.

0:09:35 > 0:09:37Bad enough you working for the council

0:09:37 > 0:09:40- without stabbing your own father in the back.- I'm sure she...

0:09:40 > 0:09:42I was doing you a favour.

0:09:42 > 0:09:45Not everyone got into the new-builds, you know.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47Who would want to? Soulless boxes.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50You've never even been inside one!

0:09:51 > 0:09:55Do you have any idea how embarrassing this is for me?

0:09:55 > 0:10:00The whole development project put on hold because of my dad.

0:10:00 > 0:10:03That's what it's about, isn't it?

0:10:03 > 0:10:05Your career!

0:10:05 > 0:10:09I care about making this town a better place to live, actually.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12- For your posh friends.- I think you both need to...- For everyone.

0:10:12 > 0:10:15Most people hated living here.

0:10:15 > 0:10:18They're practically queuing up to push the button.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20Why do you think Mum got ill?

0:10:20 > 0:10:22It was this place!

0:10:22 > 0:10:23- That's not true.- It is.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26The whole estate's rotten.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29Why can't you see that I'm trying to help you?

0:10:29 > 0:10:31I don't need your help.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33This here is a matter of principle.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36And that's worth dying for, is it?

0:10:46 > 0:10:47What?

0:10:49 > 0:10:52- So what do you want to know? - I don't know.

0:10:52 > 0:10:55- Did he ever try to see me?- No. - Not once?- Sorry.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57- Letters? Birthday cards?- No.

0:10:57 > 0:11:01- I told you, he didn't want anything to do with either of us. - What about money?

0:11:01 > 0:11:04No, darling. He never gave us a thing.

0:11:06 > 0:11:08But we did all right, didn't we?

0:11:08 > 0:11:11And look at you now. Doctor Kevin Tyler.

0:11:11 > 0:11:15- But, Mum...- No. Do you know what? I think it made you.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18Without him around, you had to be the man of the house.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21You worked harder than anyone else to get where you are.

0:11:21 > 0:11:25And now you've got everything you could want and you deserve it.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27But I don't have everything I want, do I?

0:11:27 > 0:11:29What do you mean?

0:11:29 > 0:11:31I've got to go.

0:11:33 > 0:11:35Won't you stay for your dinner?

0:11:35 > 0:11:37It can't be that bad?

0:11:37 > 0:11:42Auntie Ag for Christmas? Nothing's ever good enough for her.

0:11:42 > 0:11:47Rob's sister's just as bad and don't get me started on that brat of a daughter of hers.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50I just wanted a proper, family Christmas.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53Karen, can I put these in the outgoing mail? They're stamped.

0:11:53 > 0:11:57- Yeah, course.- Great. And that is me done.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00- What? You've finished all your Christmas cards?- Yup.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04Cards, presents, food, decorations.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07Found the very last present yesterday.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10But now I am free to enjoy Christmas spirit.

0:12:11 > 0:12:15- Right. That's it. I'm cancelling Christmas.- Don't you think you're over-reacting?

0:12:15 > 0:12:18I've haven't got the time!

0:12:18 > 0:12:21I've got to get extra food in. I've got to wrap more presents. The house is a tip.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24You'll still get to see Jack and Immie, won't you?

0:12:24 > 0:12:27I've just got to pray that we win the raffle.

0:12:29 > 0:12:30What raffle?

0:12:30 > 0:12:33The station raffle. Me and Rob have got tickets.

0:12:33 > 0:12:39The first prize is a luxury break for two at a posh hotel.

0:12:39 > 0:12:42Think of it. Me, by the pool, sipping champagne,

0:12:42 > 0:12:45silver service, no washing up.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48What about Jack and Immie?

0:12:48 > 0:12:50They could come and visit me in the spa.

0:12:50 > 0:12:54It's hardly a family Christmas, is it?

0:12:54 > 0:12:56Exactly. It's so much better.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00Good. Three times a day, OK?

0:13:00 > 0:13:04- Aye-aye, captain.- Of course, it won't make much difference if you don't go to the hospital.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Come on. Let's get this over with.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09And the police are on standby, so don't get any ideas.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11I'm going nowhere.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13Stay away from me.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15Whoa. Can't we just sit down and talk about this?

0:13:15 > 0:13:18He's had his chance. Now put the bottle down and stop making a fool of yourself.

0:13:18 > 0:13:22- You can't just drag him out of here. He's your dad.- It's not your concern.

0:13:23 > 0:13:26Yes, it is. In my professional opinion, he's too ill to cope

0:13:26 > 0:13:28with the stress of being moved out of the property.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30You have to take that into account, don't you?

0:13:30 > 0:13:32So, are we knocking this place down today or what?

0:13:37 > 0:13:38Your dinner's ready.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40I was just...

0:13:40 > 0:13:43There'll always be a room for you here.

0:13:43 > 0:13:44I know. Thanks, Mum.

0:13:44 > 0:13:47You must be getting excited, going to New York.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49I've always wanted to go to the top of the Empire State Building.

0:13:49 > 0:13:52I don't think we'll be doing much tourist stuff.

0:13:52 > 0:13:56What's the point in going all the way to New York and not going to the Empire State Building?

0:13:56 > 0:13:59- We'll see.- Oh, I get it. Lads on tour, is it?

0:13:59 > 0:14:02See how many Christmas stockings you can talk your way into?

0:14:02 > 0:14:05Well, you look after yourself. You're still my little boy.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10OK. Fine.

0:14:10 > 0:14:11I'll tell them to go back to the office.

0:14:14 > 0:14:16Congratulations. You win.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18Come on, I'll show you off site.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20Pleased with yourself, are you?

0:14:20 > 0:14:22Could say that.

0:14:22 > 0:14:23What happens now?

0:14:23 > 0:14:25I imagine I'll lose my job.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29Either way, I'm not coming back here again.

0:14:29 > 0:14:31Goodbye, Dad.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33- I hope it was worth it. - Don't be like that.

0:14:35 > 0:14:39Watching one parent die in this place was enough, thanks.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41I'm not going through it again.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44You know what's really sad?

0:14:44 > 0:14:48If Mum could see this place now, she'd be so ashamed.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50She kept it pristine.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53"It might not be much, but it's our little palace."

0:14:55 > 0:14:58She's not still here, I promise you that.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Not in this pigsty.

0:15:19 > 0:15:21I know what you're going to say.

0:15:21 > 0:15:25He's really sick. You might not get another chance.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28It's too late. I lost him a long time ago.

0:15:28 > 0:15:30- Don't say that.- It's true.

0:15:32 > 0:15:35After Mum died, I may as well not have existed.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37I'm lucky if I get a phone call once a month.

0:15:38 > 0:15:41Let's face it, he's only ever loved one woman.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48You're my princess.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53Maybe you're right.

0:15:53 > 0:15:54Maybe she's gone.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00In which case, there's nothing left for me here, is there?

0:16:03 > 0:16:07If it means so much to you, pull the place down.

0:16:07 > 0:16:11- Really?- Just give me a minute to get a few things together.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18Sorry about the wait, Mr Williams.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26- Another satisfied customer? - Don't you start!

0:16:26 > 0:16:29Did you know your flippin' family's coming to hijack our Christmas?

0:16:29 > 0:16:31Megan did mention that she'd spoken to you.

0:16:31 > 0:16:36- And who's the one who's going to do all the extra shopping, cleaning, cooking?- Forget that.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38I've got some news that's going to cheer you up.

0:16:38 > 0:16:42- Oh, yeah? What is it?- How about I tell you over dinner? My shout.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45- Must be good news.- You're just going to have to wait and see.

0:16:45 > 0:16:50First of all, I've got something I need to pick up. Icon, 15 minutes.

0:16:50 > 0:16:51Oooh. Hey, you don't think...?

0:16:51 > 0:16:55- We've only gone and won.- Won what?

0:16:55 > 0:16:58Guess who is going to be spending Christmas Day

0:16:58 > 0:17:02- at Chatleigh Manor Hotel and Spa? - Ooh. Very impressive!

0:17:02 > 0:17:06Isn't that a bit pricey though? Has Rob been made commissioner?

0:17:06 > 0:17:07We're not going to be paying a penny.

0:17:07 > 0:17:11I'll be soaking up the festive spirit, all-inclusive.

0:17:11 > 0:17:12Stick that in your stocking.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20They've done the final search and reconnected the explosives.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23We'll be ready to go in about 20 minutes, just as soon as all my men are clear.

0:17:28 > 0:17:31You were right. Your mum wouldn't want me living like that.

0:17:33 > 0:17:34How are you feeling now?

0:17:35 > 0:17:37I've had better days.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39Nice to get some fresh air though.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42Are you going to watch?

0:17:43 > 0:17:46You know, I just might go for a walk,

0:17:46 > 0:17:49say goodbye to your mum properly.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53Can I get back out through that fence?

0:17:53 > 0:17:55Ask the security guards, they'll let you out.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57- Do you want me to come with you?- No.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00You should watch this.

0:18:00 > 0:18:03This is what you've been working for, isn't it?

0:18:03 > 0:18:06Dad...I'm sorry.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08Don't be.

0:18:08 > 0:18:09It's time to move on, eh?

0:18:16 > 0:18:18Thank you.

0:18:19 > 0:18:23And afterwards, will you come to the hospital with me to get those tests?

0:18:23 > 0:18:26Anything you say, doc. See you in a minute.

0:18:32 > 0:18:35I can't wait for this. I love a good demolition.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37It's making me come over all Christmassy.

0:18:44 > 0:18:50So, come on then. What's the news? Though I think I probably know what it is.

0:18:50 > 0:18:52We have been chosen...

0:18:52 > 0:18:56- Yes?- ..and I think this is going to make our Christmas... - Come on! What's the news?

0:18:56 > 0:19:01..to play Santa and Mrs Claus on the Round Table Christmas float.

0:19:01 > 0:19:05- Have you had another knock on the head?- Isn't it great? Not only do we get to ride the float,

0:19:05 > 0:19:09- but we get to entertain the kids, their families, hand out presents. - Hang on a minute.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12We get to dress up like idiots and humiliate ourselves

0:19:12 > 0:19:13in front of the whole town?

0:19:13 > 0:19:18- Imagine it. Every night next week, we'll be bringing in Christmas spirit...- Every night?!

0:19:18 > 0:19:20No way! I haven't got the time

0:19:20 > 0:19:23because I am wrapping and cooking for your relatives.

0:19:23 > 0:19:25Too late. I've already said yes.

0:19:25 > 0:19:27- You'll just have to find yourself a new Mrs Claus.- Fine.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Fine. If that's the way you feel about it...

0:19:37 > 0:19:42You know, I can still remember Jack and Immie's little faces light up

0:19:42 > 0:19:46when that float came down our old street

0:19:46 > 0:19:48and they saw Father Christmas for the first time.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51- It's all they talked about for weeks. - I know what you're doing.

0:19:51 > 0:19:55- To think that we could be the ones bringing that happiness to those children.- Stop it.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00Right. Well...

0:20:00 > 0:20:03if you can live with yourself,

0:20:03 > 0:20:05we'll tell the little ones that Santa's not coming this year.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12OK. I'll do it. But you owe me.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14Great! Here you are.

0:20:14 > 0:20:17You might want to see if it fits first.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25Everybody's out, so I think we're ready to go.

0:20:25 > 0:20:29- Where did the old codger go? - He left the site.- Good.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31Would you care to do the honours?

0:20:31 > 0:20:33No. You do it.

0:20:34 > 0:20:35Suit yourself.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39Part of me's going to miss this place.

0:20:39 > 0:20:42It'll be like blowing up part of my childhood.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44I think we'd all like to blow up parts of our childhood sometimes.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48- Think of it as a clean slate. - All clear!

0:20:53 > 0:20:57Don't worry, sweetheart, I didn't forget you.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02Now...

0:21:02 > 0:21:05let's go and see this new flat.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15Three. Two.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17- Wait! Stop!- What now?!

0:21:17 > 0:21:19What if he's gone back?

0:21:19 > 0:21:22- Oi!- Sam!- Come back! It's not safe!

0:21:22 > 0:21:24Wait!

0:21:24 > 0:21:25Dad...

0:21:30 > 0:21:33Dad?

0:21:33 > 0:21:35Dad!

0:21:35 > 0:21:37Call an ambulance.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39Mr Jones?

0:21:39 > 0:21:42Clyde, can you hear me?

0:21:42 > 0:21:44Mr Jones?

0:21:44 > 0:21:46The Rowbourne Estate.

0:21:46 > 0:21:48Number 43.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50It's my dad. He's collapsed.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56Thanks for dinner, Mum.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58You're always welcome.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00Why don't you pop round again before you go?

0:22:00 > 0:22:05- I don't know. I've got quite a lot I've got to get done.- Right.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07Well, if I don't you see, have a great time.

0:22:07 > 0:22:09And a merry Christmas!

0:22:11 > 0:22:13Yeah, you too, Mum.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19I'll call you.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23Are you going to see him again?

0:22:27 > 0:22:29- Maybe.- Why?

0:22:31 > 0:22:33Because he's dying.

0:22:33 > 0:22:34What do you mean?

0:22:34 > 0:22:37He needs a stem cell transplant.

0:22:37 > 0:22:41That's why Nadia tracked you down. Now I get it. They want you to...

0:22:41 > 0:22:45- No.- Mum...- No, you don't owe that man a thing.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47- How could they even ask? - I could save his life.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49What about your life? I won't let you do it.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51- I won't let you risk your health for him.- He's my dad.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54- No, he's not. He's just a sperm donor.- I've got to go.

0:22:54 > 0:22:58- No, don't. We need to talk about this.- You've made your feelings pretty clear, Mum.

0:23:00 > 0:23:01DOOR SHUTS

0:23:08 > 0:23:11I don't understand. This place was supposed to be locked down.

0:23:11 > 0:23:13He was already in the exclusion area, wasn't he?

0:23:13 > 0:23:16And if there was a way back in without being seen, he'd know it.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28I'm sorry.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31Hello?

0:23:32 > 0:23:33Sorry.

0:23:33 > 0:23:34I think...

0:23:38 > 0:23:42Hello. This is Mr Jones' GP.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45No, I'm afraid not.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48No, nothing at all.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50Yes, of course. I'll wait here.

0:23:54 > 0:23:55Do you think...

0:23:56 > 0:24:00..he wanted to be in here when George pushed the button?

0:24:04 > 0:24:09I thought if I could just get him to move out, he'd get better.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13Not just his health but...everything.

0:24:27 > 0:24:28I'm sorry.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32He got what he wished for, didn't he?

0:24:34 > 0:24:36To stay here with Mum.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41I'm taking it off. It fits.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44- Come on. You've got to give us a twirl.- No way!

0:24:44 > 0:24:46- Karen, I really think you should let us check it.- Exactly.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48It's got to be right for the kiddies.

0:24:51 > 0:24:54You promised.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57Sorry. You look amazing.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59A real cracker.

0:24:59 > 0:25:03- THEY LAUGH - It's no wonder Father Christmas always looks so jolly.

0:25:07 > 0:25:10Merry bloomin' Christmas.

0:25:21 > 0:25:23I thought you were going home?

0:25:24 > 0:25:27I wanted to clear my head first.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30You always used to come here when you were angry with me.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33I'd give it ten minutes, then come and find you.

0:25:33 > 0:25:35Before long, I'd be pushing you on the swings.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37You'd be laughing, all forgotten.

0:25:37 > 0:25:39However hard I pushed, you always wanted to go higher.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45I can't bear the thought of losing you because of him.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47You are better than a hundred of him.

0:25:49 > 0:25:53He wouldn't have cared if you'd ended up in a gang or on drugs

0:25:53 > 0:25:55- or banged up.- I know.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58Go to New York. Forget about him, like he forgot about you.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01- What difference will it make? - What do you mean, what difference will it make?!

0:26:01 > 0:26:03He's not your responsibility.

0:26:03 > 0:26:04I could save his life.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06He's been dead to us for years anyway.

0:26:06 > 0:26:11- How can you be so cold?- Cold?! - You know, there's always been this little part of me that I've hated.

0:26:11 > 0:26:16This little part that's selfish, bitter, scared.

0:26:16 > 0:26:17And I thought, that's him.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20That's the little thing I've inherited from my father.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22But it isn't him, is it? It's you.

0:26:22 > 0:26:25- Kevin!- He's dying and I could help him.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28- Do you have no compassion? - Compassion?! After what he did to us?

0:26:28 > 0:26:33- How hard I had to struggle...- Give it a rest! Don't you think you've played the tragic single-mum card

0:26:33 > 0:26:35a bit too often? "Poor Laura. A man walked out on her,

0:26:35 > 0:26:38"but she rose above it all to raise a successful doctor."

0:26:38 > 0:26:41- Is that what you really think?- Did you ever love him?- Of course I did.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44But now you're prepared to let him die? Maybe he walked out on you

0:26:44 > 0:26:46because he realised what a callous bitch you are.

0:27:03 > 0:27:05I wanted to ask you about stem cell transplants.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08Are you coming to the nativity play?

0:27:08 > 0:27:11I'm hardly going to stay at home and watch EastEnders.

0:27:11 > 0:27:14- You said something about meeting up? - I did.- Why don't we make it happen?

0:27:14 > 0:27:16You know all about telling lies.

0:27:16 > 0:27:18I wasn't trying to be devious.

0:27:18 > 0:27:19What's Chris doing here?

0:27:19 > 0:27:22It's just a sex thing really.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24We'll try this.

0:27:24 > 0:27:25Really?
