0:02:09 > 0:02:13and remember to ar-tic-cu-late!
0:02:13 > 0:02:15Solos back here this evening.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18We haven't quite made the regionals yet.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30We sounded good.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Still missing a decent contralto.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34You are a tough act to follow.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36If you want to get ahead, you have to be.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38We should go.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Are you sure you want to go through with this?
0:02:41 > 0:02:44I just want what is owed to me. That's all.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Go on! Get out of my sight!
0:02:53 > 0:02:55GLASS SMASHES
0:03:06 > 0:03:08You're late.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11The driveway was longer than I expected.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13They tell you what the job entails?
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Pain relief. Palliative care.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18And do as you're told.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Five nurses in as many weeks
0:03:24 > 0:03:28They said you were hard work... But the money was good.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31You haven't earned it yet.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37Get me out of these slippers.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40"EARTHQUAKE" BY LABRINTH PLAYING
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Morning. Good to see you.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15THEY ALL ASK QUESTIONS
0:04:15 > 0:04:18I was barely 20 when I signed a contract with Del Burman.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22A contract which discriminated against me, and exploited my talent.
0:04:22 > 0:04:23I barely saw a penny.
0:04:25 > 0:04:31I discovered Carla Graham. Made her a star.
0:04:34 > 0:04:40In truth I'm truly saddened. Heartbroken.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43Devious sod.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45He is quite the showman.
0:04:46 > 0:04:50I'm confident that I will be vindicated in court.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52We'll see about that.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00You are supposed to be on holiday.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02An agency job came up.
0:05:02 > 0:05:07And did you know about this job when you asked me to cancel the course?
0:05:07 > 0:05:11I'm paying you to defend me. Not make excuses.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13You deceived me!
0:05:13 > 0:05:15The course is a waste of time.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18Clearly you had other things to do.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Mrs Tembe, it was one day. I needed the money. All right?
0:05:21 > 0:05:25Surrounded by incompetents!
0:05:25 > 0:05:27How can you work for that man?
0:05:27 > 0:05:29End stage emphysema.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Someone needs to look after him.
0:05:32 > 0:05:36See, I told you this would happen
0:05:36 > 0:05:39The best lawyers money can buy.
0:05:39 > 0:05:40Then he must be worried.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47I do not think you should go and speak to him!
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Quite a performance you gave out there.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56Rich. From you.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00- You don't care who you hurt. - Give us a minute.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02- I don't think I should... - Just do as you're told
0:06:08 > 0:06:11I want my money, Del.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14I can see from your shoes you're short of a few quid.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18Least I'm still walking.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Faded celebrity. Back in the limelight.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24- Name in the papers. - You think I'm enjoying this?
0:06:24 > 0:06:30- I know you.- Every last penny. Whatever it takes.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37What the hell are you doing here?
0:06:37 > 0:06:40- Thought you might need my support. That him?- Just...
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Ow!
0:06:46 > 0:06:48You said you wanted to talk.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50I'm up in court in five minutes.
0:06:50 > 0:06:55- This is all you care about. - I'm doing this for us, Melody.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Where have you been living?
0:06:59 > 0:07:00I'm staying with Tony.
0:07:00 > 0:07:04- He looks after me. - I bet he does.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06The band's doing well.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08He gives me all the best songs.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Did he give you that, too?
0:07:13 > 0:07:17You know what that says? Cheap little whore.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20You're jealous.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23Why won't you learn from my mistakes?
0:07:23 > 0:07:28- You couldn't bear it if I stole the limelight. - I don't want you to show me up!
0:07:28 > 0:07:29It's so over, Mum.
0:07:29 > 0:07:30Just go.
0:07:30 > 0:07:35You're the only one who can't see that you're nothing but a desperate has been.
0:07:35 > 0:07:36Melody!
0:07:38 > 0:07:42Your mother is under a great deal of stress.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Don't you dare make excuses for her!
0:07:44 > 0:07:48She is very worried about you.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53She doesn't want to be anywhere near me.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Wait here.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03She could sit with me here in the public gallery.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05I said I didn't want her here.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06But she is your daughter.
0:08:09 > 0:08:15- You go in. I will stay with Melody. - No.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28I can't. I can't do this.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32Carla! Carla!
0:08:32 > 0:08:36It looks like there has been a slight hitch.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38I'm calling an ambulance.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40It's all right! Leave me alone.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43Mr Burman, please calm down!
0:08:43 > 0:08:45Melody, wait. Fine!
0:08:45 > 0:08:48I'll drop the case if that's what you want.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51You'd do that for me?
0:08:51 > 0:08:54As long as you come home.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57Forget this nonsense about being in a band.
0:08:57 > 0:08:58You're priceless. You know that?
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Melody. Melody!
0:09:03 > 0:09:07They will have to postpone the trial.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11Perhaps if you spoke to your solicitor...
0:09:11 > 0:09:13No, it's too late.
0:09:13 > 0:09:18Melody's right. I'm finished.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Gary! Stop the car.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Get in.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33Why would I go anywhere with you?
0:09:33 > 0:09:35We've got things to talk about.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40- You're still a manager, right? - Retired.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43But you know people? In the business.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Oh yes, I know people.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50You going to keep a sick man waiting?
0:10:00 > 0:10:03SHE PLAYS NOTES ON THE PIANO
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Why do you not sing anymore?
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Haven't got much to sing about.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28You have the choir.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Letherbridge glee club!
0:10:30 > 0:10:34You have given this community something to be proud of.
0:10:34 > 0:10:40My mother used to say, "We sing when our hearts are full".
0:10:43 > 0:10:47I've failed at everything I've put my hands to.
0:10:49 > 0:10:54Maybe I just wanted to be someone again.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58Seeing him just brought it all back.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01It must have been exciting.
0:11:06 > 0:11:11I was 21. Hit records.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14World at my feet.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18I could have done anything.
0:11:18 > 0:11:23And then I got myself knocked up.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Kiss of death in those days.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35I gave it all up to have Melody.
0:11:37 > 0:11:42But then as she grew older, all we did was argue.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44No money, stuck in that house.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49Then she left...
0:11:52 > 0:11:55..and I was left with nothing.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58You cannot blame Del for everything.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02Del Burman made me what I am.
0:12:03 > 0:12:08Maybe Melody was right. You just need to move on.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11You don't understand, he made us both.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17He's Melody's father.
0:12:21 > 0:12:27Scotch. Large one. No ice.
0:12:27 > 0:12:28No ice.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36They'd have been nothing without Del Burman.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Mum said you had a big head.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41What else did she say?
0:12:41 > 0:12:44Nothing. Never really talks about it.
0:12:44 > 0:12:48I could tell you some stories.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51Your mum and me were close once.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55I only ever had her best interests at heart.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02Why don't I show you the rest of the house?
0:13:02 > 0:13:05You can push me.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17Del was a good manager.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20He'd already made a name for himself.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23The record company hired him to look out for me.
0:13:23 > 0:13:24He certainly did that.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29You don't get the talent knocked up.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32When I told him I was pregnant...
0:13:32 > 0:13:35he didn't want to know.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42I never told Melody who her father was.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45After a while, she stopped asking.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47And he never tried to look for her?
0:13:48 > 0:13:52Like I said, he wasn't interested.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54Until Melody showed up at court today
0:13:58 > 0:13:59The look on his face.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03I know that look.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06He'll track her down just to spite me.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08PHONE BEEPS
0:14:08 > 0:14:10I don't want him anywhere near her.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18I think it may be a little bit late for that.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23HE WHEEZES
0:14:27 > 0:14:31This track is bomb. We sampled this. My band.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34You probably owe me some money.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38We're just starting out. Urban R'n'B.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Maybe you could have a listen?
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Fancy yourself as a singer then?
0:14:46 > 0:14:49I'm only really happy when I sing.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54Yes, we are outside.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00Whatever he has done He is still Melody's father.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02You think I want her to hear it from him?
0:15:02 > 0:15:04You have done the right thing... I hope.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09Carla Graham's first gold disc.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13Great '60s cover.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16Still get a royalty every time it's played.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21I used to listen to this track... when I was little.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25SHE HUMS
0:15:28 > 0:15:30I suppose you think it's about you?
0:15:32 > 0:15:37# Oh, yeah, you'll lose a good thing
0:15:40 > 0:15:43# If you should lose me
0:15:46 > 0:15:51# Oh, yeah, you'll lose a good thing
0:15:53 > 0:15:58# You know I love you Do anything for you
0:16:01 > 0:16:06# Just don't mistreat me And I'll be good to you
0:16:06 > 0:16:10# Cos if you should lose me
0:16:12 > 0:16:18# Oh, yeah, you'll lose a good thing
0:16:19 > 0:16:25# I'm giving you one more chance For you to do right
0:16:25 > 0:16:31# If you'll only straighten up We'll have a good life
0:16:31 > 0:16:35# Cos if you should lose me
0:16:38 > 0:16:43# Oh, yeah, you'll lose a good thing... #
0:16:47 > 0:16:50I never knew you could sing like that.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54You never stopped to listen.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Takes me back. Where were we, Carla?
0:16:57 > 0:16:59Whatever he's told you...
0:16:59 > 0:17:03She's got her mother's voice and her father's temper.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09- Melody...- No.
0:17:10 > 0:17:14No. No way. Him!
0:17:14 > 0:17:16Just listen.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18- Just tell me he's not my dad. - I was trying to protect you.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21You said some guy. Just some guy on the road.
0:17:21 > 0:17:26Royal Hotel, Sheffield. I even paid for a suite.
0:17:28 > 0:17:29And you called me a whore.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Melody. Melody!
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Always a drama.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37HE COUGHS
0:17:37 > 0:17:40You don't know what he's like.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43Let's have the truth, Carla, for once in your life.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45You ruined my career.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48You were dropped because you were past it.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51- Your moment was over. - I was a star.
0:17:52 > 0:17:53Still rankles?
0:17:54 > 0:17:58You worked me ragged. And you got all this. What did I ever get?
0:17:58 > 0:18:01It was a lousy deal, I grant you that,
0:18:01 > 0:18:05but you were so desperate to be famous, you would have signed anything.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09You would have sold your soul.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13Well maybe I did!
0:18:14 > 0:18:17You need to take your pills. I'll be in the kitchen.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Did you hate me that much?
0:18:26 > 0:18:27You deserved it.
0:18:27 > 0:18:32So brittle. You're harder than me.
0:18:36 > 0:18:37We were good together.
0:18:39 > 0:18:40We used each other, Del.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45All we ever had was an arrangement.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53I'll make her my heir. She'll cop a fortune...
0:18:56 > 0:18:59..provided you walk away.
0:19:00 > 0:19:04- You think I'd just abandon her? - Might be for the best.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07Mess you've made of things. Think about it.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16He might not be the father you wanted.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18He's just an old man in a wheelchair.
0:19:19 > 0:19:23At least give your mother the chance to explain. You owe her that much.
0:19:24 > 0:19:29I don't owe her anything.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31Not after this.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Melody, you cannot keep running.
0:19:38 > 0:19:39I'll cope.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48And how is this coping?
0:19:48 > 0:19:51She blamed me for everything.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53I took it all away from her.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59You are loved.
0:19:59 > 0:20:03Believe me, you are loved.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12- Melody. - I only came back for my demo tape.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Melody...
0:20:23 > 0:20:25He did not know he had a child.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34He offered me a deal.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Nothing changes.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40What kind of deal?
0:20:44 > 0:20:48Melody gets all his money... As long as I'm not around.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52He cannot buy his daughter's love.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56How can I compete with all this?
0:20:58 > 0:21:00It's more than I can ever give her.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05She burns herself.
0:21:06 > 0:21:11- Her arms are marked with her insignificance.- What?
0:21:11 > 0:21:17If you really want to help Melody? Start by being honest with her.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23How can you treat her like that?
0:21:23 > 0:21:26I'm working with what I've got.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Do you know what I think?
0:21:29 > 0:21:32I think the fearless Del Burman might be frightened.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36I'm not the paternal type.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Frightened you might care.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Scared of dying alone.
0:21:43 > 0:21:47I paid Carla to get rid of it. A termination.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50She told me it was sorted.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Happy now?
0:21:56 > 0:21:57There's your bonus.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02Get your things and get out. You're done here.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16I forgot this.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20Leave it with me. I'll see what I can do.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Least I can do for my daughter.
0:22:26 > 0:22:30She lied to you. Stole you away from me.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34She lied to us both.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39She learned from the best.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41HE COUGHS AND WHEEZES
0:22:43 > 0:22:45You are leaving?
0:22:45 > 0:22:48I will have to inform Mr Bellamy.
0:22:48 > 0:22:52If I did not report this, I would be lying too.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55Mrs Tembe, I am stuck in that house on my own.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58And it's Freya's house and I know she's not coming back.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03I'm saving for a deposit.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08I just need a fresh start, that's all.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12Of course, I understand.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16Just tell me the truth! >
0:23:16 > 0:23:20You wanted me aborted! You paid my mum to get rid of me!
0:23:20 > 0:23:24Stop! Stop it! He isn't worth it!
0:23:24 > 0:23:27For goodness sake, the man can't breathe.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29My mum was right about you!
0:23:29 > 0:23:32I am a monster.
0:23:32 > 0:23:37I'm everything they say I am. You wouldn't want me for a father.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45This is what it takes to make you care?
0:23:45 > 0:23:47No.
0:23:47 > 0:23:48You're as bad as each other.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Give her time.
0:23:58 > 0:24:03Are you sure you do not want me to stay?
0:24:03 > 0:24:06You've done quite enough for one day.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11I was never good enough.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22You were right.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27I blamed you for my mistakes.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38I saw you growing up.
0:24:38 > 0:24:43Whole life ahead of you.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45And I should have told you how proud
0:24:48 > 0:24:49I was finished.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51After Del. Washed up.
0:24:54 > 0:25:00But I still had you. You were all that mattered.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03You were the one thing that kept me going.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07I just want to sing, Mum.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16We're looking for a soloist.
0:25:19 > 0:25:24Well, I know this amazing singer. Local girl.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Bit rough around the edges.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30Edges I can polish.
0:25:42 > 0:25:48# Joyful, joyful We adore thee
0:25:48 > 0:25:54# God of glory Lord of love
0:25:54 > 0:25:58# Hearts unfold Like flowers before thee
0:25:58 > 0:26:04# Opening to the sun above
0:26:04 > 0:26:10# Melt the clouds of sin and sadness
0:26:10 > 0:26:17# Drive the dark of doubt away
0:26:17 > 0:26:24# Giver of immortal gladness
0:26:24 > 0:26:31# Fill us with the light of day. #
0:26:42 > 0:26:43SCREAMING
0:26:43 > 0:26:45She said she heard something, like an animal.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48You're not aware of her situation?
0:26:48 > 0:26:50All I've heard about lately is you.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55I think I did hear screaming.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57From the house?
0:27:01 > 0:27:02What the...?
