0:00:40 > 0:00:41Speak.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44- 'Congratulations!- You have won...'

0:00:52 > 0:00:54DOORBELL RINGS

0:00:56 > 0:00:57Wonderful!

0:00:57 > 0:00:59Sarah. From next door?

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Oh, right.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03Forgettable face, I know.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07Dr Haskey, I'm so pleased you're home.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10Now I can make sure you know about the street meeting tonight.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12About the speed bumps?

0:01:12 > 0:01:14Oh, gosh, sorry.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16I did put a leaflet through your door yesterday,

0:01:16 > 0:01:17and last Friday actually.

0:01:17 > 0:01:19I just put all leaflets straight in the bin.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22Ah! Well, it's a good thing I came round then, isn't it?

0:01:22 > 0:01:24Now, as you probably know,

0:01:24 > 0:01:27we've had three cats run over along this road in the past six months

0:01:27 > 0:01:29and there's general concern...

0:01:29 > 0:01:32Sally, I'm going to save you some time.

0:01:32 > 0:01:33- Sarah.- Sarah.

0:01:33 > 0:01:37I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to make it, but thank you very much anyway.

0:01:37 > 0:01:38Dr Haskey. Sorry...

0:01:38 > 0:01:41We were rather hoping... the thing is,

0:01:41 > 0:01:44as the one medical professional on the street,

0:01:44 > 0:01:46your support could be absolutely decisive

0:01:46 > 0:01:47in persuading the council...

0:01:47 > 0:01:49I'm not going to be able to help you.

0:01:49 > 0:01:54But surely you, more than anyone, understand the benefits of speed bumps?

0:01:54 > 0:01:55Speed bumps?

0:01:56 > 0:02:00Speed bumps increase vehicle wear and tear, fuel emissions and noise.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03They are extremely uncomfortable for the disabled,

0:02:03 > 0:02:04or the heavily pregnant.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07Speed bumps increase the response time of emergency vehicles,

0:02:07 > 0:02:12So in a very real way, you could say that speed bumps cost lives.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Now if you'll excuse me, I've got some really important work to be getting on with.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18- What a shame.- Isn't it?

0:02:45 > 0:02:48You have not answered your phone.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52I've left you so many messages.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54You were so upset yesterday.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59Thank you for your concern.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03I've not slept a wink.

0:03:03 > 0:03:07Gordon, I owe you an explanation.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11Maybe we can find another time?

0:03:11 > 0:03:12I have people visiting,

0:03:12 > 0:03:15and a pile of paperwork to get through.

0:03:16 > 0:03:17Have a good day.

0:03:19 > 0:03:20Mrs Tembe.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40SHE SOBS

0:03:42 > 0:03:43Wh...ooow! Ow!

0:03:43 > 0:03:47Oh, I'm so sorry! That must have really hurt.

0:03:47 > 0:03:48Here. Let me help. Let me help.

0:03:50 > 0:03:51Sorry!

0:03:51 > 0:03:53What? This had better be life or death.

0:03:53 > 0:03:56Ironically I came in to see how you were getting on.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Well, let me see,

0:03:58 > 0:04:01Al's male patients are all looking at me like I'm the victim,

0:04:01 > 0:04:03I think I preferred them looking down my top, and you've just

0:04:03 > 0:04:08- rammed the door into my ankle so so far it's turning out to be one of the best days of my life(!)- Sorry.

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Can I ask you about recipes?

0:04:13 > 0:04:14Why?

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Because I'm going to cook for you, tonight,

0:04:16 > 0:04:19and I don't want to waste those two pieces of fennel that came in that box.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22But it turns out it's surprisingly difficult to find a good recipe for fennel.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26Honestly, I'd be happy with takeaway.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29No, no, it's fine. Leave it with me.

0:04:29 > 0:04:31Daniel...

0:04:44 > 0:04:46DOORBELL RINGS

0:04:46 > 0:04:48HE SIGHS

0:04:55 > 0:04:56Hi.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58A package for next door.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07Thank you very much, cheers.

0:05:10 > 0:05:11DOORBELL RINGS

0:05:14 > 0:05:17I do not buy from peddlers, thank you very much indeed.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19I'm with Sarah next door actually.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21Oh.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23Sorry, we haven't properly met. George.

0:05:23 > 0:05:24Al.

0:05:24 > 0:05:27You kindly took a package for us?

0:05:27 > 0:05:28Oh, right, yeah.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34Return the favour one day, I hope.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37Actually, you haven't got a minute to spare now, have you?

0:05:37 > 0:05:38Actually I'm quite busy.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40Nah, come on, it'll only take a minute.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Come on through.

0:05:59 > 0:06:00Thanks.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02Thank you. That was...helpful.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04It's what neighbours are for, isn't it?

0:06:04 > 0:06:06Yeah, I suppose so.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08See you again soon.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Not too long ago, you described in vivid detail

0:06:41 > 0:06:42the death of your husband,

0:06:43 > 0:06:45and how it affected you.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49It struck a great many chords with me, as you can imagine.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54Then yesterday I discovered that every word you'd spoken

0:06:54 > 0:06:55was a barefaced lie.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58I am so sorry

0:06:58 > 0:07:00that you had to find out the truth that way.

0:07:00 > 0:07:04But now at least I can explain to you what happened.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06You're missing the point.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09You have shown great disrespect to your husband.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12You've denied his existence.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19Far less importantly, you have also caused me a great deal of pain.

0:07:20 > 0:07:21What was I to do?

0:07:21 > 0:07:25I could not admit the truth in front of Mr and Mrs Hollins.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28That would have been disrespectful to you.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33Frankly, I'm surprised you are even trying to justify this.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35I know you are disappointed in me.

0:07:38 > 0:07:42Please if you would just listen to me,

0:07:42 > 0:07:45then you might understand.

0:07:45 > 0:07:46Please, Gordon.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53I can't think of what you could say.

0:07:58 > 0:08:02But I'll let you speak and I'll listen. Let's go inside.

0:08:02 > 0:08:03Thank you.

0:08:14 > 0:08:15Hello.

0:08:15 > 0:08:16Again.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18You took a delivery for me.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20I did.

0:08:20 > 0:08:21Thank you.

0:08:22 > 0:08:23Could I have it then, please?

0:08:23 > 0:08:25Your husband's got it.

0:08:25 > 0:08:26My husband?

0:08:26 > 0:08:28He came about ten minutes ago.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31My husband's in France. He's not back until tomorrow.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33- George.- Tim.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36Who's Tim? Dark hair,

0:08:36 > 0:08:37about yay high?

0:08:39 > 0:08:42We're talking about a case of Chateau Margaux.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44That sounds expensive.

0:08:44 > 0:08:45It's Tim's 50th to...

0:08:45 > 0:08:49How can you possibly not know what my husband looks like?

0:08:49 > 0:08:51Well, to be fair, I hardly recognised you.

0:08:51 > 0:08:53I know!

0:08:53 > 0:08:54Look, he had the delivery note.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56What, this one?

0:08:56 > 0:08:58- Yeah.- I don't think so.

0:08:58 > 0:09:01I recognise the handwriting. It's the same time. 10.20.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03Are you saying I'm lying about who my husband is?

0:09:03 > 0:09:07No, but George must have been into your house to get the delivery note.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09I locked my door. No-one else has a key.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11Well, maybe he broke in.

0:09:11 > 0:09:14The lock was not forced.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17He could have got in through a window, or up through the floorboards.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19Or maybe George is a ghost. Whoa!

0:09:19 > 0:09:21Hey!

0:09:21 > 0:09:22I didn't steal it!

0:09:22 > 0:09:23Well, one of us is lying here.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25I know.

0:09:26 > 0:09:30Are you like this with everyone who turns down your meetings?

0:09:30 > 0:09:31Unbelievable.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36We got married young.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Well, that's how things are done in Botswana.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40And our first year of marriage,

0:09:40 > 0:09:43well, at that time, I thought we were happy.

0:09:43 > 0:09:47It is only looking back that I realise there was...

0:09:47 > 0:09:50something missing in our...

0:09:51 > 0:09:53..physical relationship.

0:09:53 > 0:09:57Thomas started to pull away from me.

0:09:59 > 0:10:00And...

0:10:02 > 0:10:04I remember the day so clearly.

0:10:06 > 0:10:10He said that he loved me,

0:10:10 > 0:10:13that he could no longer live a lie.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16He...

0:10:16 > 0:10:18he was attracted to men.

0:10:20 > 0:10:26Well, since coming to Britain, I have had experience of such matters.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29But at the time, I knew no-one with such feelings.

0:10:30 > 0:10:35It was incomprehensible. I was ashamed,

0:10:35 > 0:10:37and revolted.

0:10:39 > 0:10:43All I knew was that I had loved Thomas

0:10:43 > 0:10:46for longer than I can remember.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48That love...

0:10:51 > 0:10:53That love had given me such strength.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57And now, suddenly,

0:10:57 > 0:10:59it was gone.

0:11:02 > 0:11:03Was divorce an option?

0:11:03 > 0:11:08No, no, not in our community. Not with our family.

0:11:08 > 0:11:14I knew as long as Thomas lived that I would be married to him.

0:11:14 > 0:11:18Can you see what that meant for me?

0:11:18 > 0:11:21I would never have children,

0:11:21 > 0:11:24I would never have a physical relationship.

0:11:25 > 0:11:31I thought that I will never find a special person to love

0:11:31 > 0:11:33and who would love me back.

0:11:34 > 0:11:36In that one moment,

0:11:37 > 0:11:40he stole all of that away from me.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50The wine, yeah, worth £300 apparently.

0:11:50 > 0:11:51So?

0:11:51 > 0:11:52So you're liable.

0:11:52 > 0:11:53Say what?

0:11:53 > 0:11:55You signed for it.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57Although I don't think she will sue you.

0:11:57 > 0:12:01No, she's more interested in linking it with the other thefts on this street.

0:12:01 > 0:12:02What other thefts?

0:12:02 > 0:12:04- You don't know?- Should I?

0:12:04 > 0:12:07Oh, there've been a spate of them, in the area, over the past month.

0:12:07 > 0:12:08Mostly opportunistic.

0:12:08 > 0:12:12People leaving open the front door, the car door, they just go in and out.

0:12:12 > 0:12:13Hold on...

0:12:13 > 0:12:14What is she saying?

0:12:14 > 0:12:17I'm going to be very honest with you, Al.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20She thinks you're a liar and a thief.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23Well, you know that I'm neither.

0:12:24 > 0:12:27Now, a little bird tells me, Al,

0:12:27 > 0:12:30that you have got a spot of previous in the theft department.

0:12:32 > 0:12:33Bog Rollgate.

0:12:33 > 0:12:38Oh, for goodness sake I told Howard I took them for work.

0:12:38 > 0:12:41Yeah, but you still took 'em and there's no smoke without fire.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44- You didn't tell her that? - You don't think it's relevant?

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Oh, great, thanks, Rob(!)

0:12:46 > 0:12:49Oi! I'm not the one nicking bog roll.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52Let's just hope, for your sake, we catch this fella.

0:12:59 > 0:13:00Please,

0:13:00 > 0:13:02please say something.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09This sounds like a very difficult situation for the both of you.

0:13:11 > 0:13:12Yes. Yes, it was.

0:13:14 > 0:13:15So what happened?

0:13:20 > 0:13:22Thomas was a teacher.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28A man of responsibility.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33I went to his school

0:13:33 > 0:13:35and I told all of his pupils.

0:13:36 > 0:13:42Then I went to his parents and I told them the truth about their son.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45And then I went to the reverend and I told him to tell everyone.

0:13:49 > 0:13:50What happened to him?

0:13:50 > 0:13:53He was rejected by the village.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55And after, he left Botswana.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03You don't understand how different the world looked back then.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06HE wronged ME.

0:14:07 > 0:14:13He had stood up in front of our community, in front of God,

0:14:15 > 0:14:19and said that he would be united with me until death do us part.

0:14:20 > 0:14:24And then he revealed himself to be...

0:14:25 > 0:14:27No.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30The shame was too much. It was too much.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35So this is the real reason you came to the UK?

0:14:36 > 0:14:39Remaining married gave me this one gift.

0:14:40 > 0:14:45Permission to come to a place that I had long admired.

0:14:45 > 0:14:49But being in such a polite society,

0:14:49 > 0:14:51I could not admit the truth.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57So I introduced myself as a widow.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00And I have done so ever since.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04Until yesterday.

0:15:06 > 0:15:11"For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest,

0:15:13 > 0:15:14"nor is anything secret

0:15:14 > 0:15:17"that will not be known and come to light."

0:15:18 > 0:15:19Excuse me.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25Right.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27My colleagues have seen

0:15:27 > 0:15:29a male acting suspiciously in the parallel street.

0:15:29 > 0:15:32They'd like to know if you could identify him.

0:15:32 > 0:15:33Now?

0:15:33 > 0:15:34Yeah, now.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36I just want to get on with my work.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38Word to the wise, Al,

0:15:38 > 0:15:42juries these days tend to see non-cooperation as suspicious.

0:15:42 > 0:15:43Juries?

0:15:43 > 0:15:44Yeah, I mean recently

0:15:44 > 0:15:47they've all gone a bit too black and white in my book, to be honest.

0:15:47 > 0:15:52Because people, sometimes, like yourself, are just genuinely busy.

0:15:52 > 0:15:53I blame crime shows.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59Let's get this farce out the way, then, eh?

0:16:02 > 0:16:03Is this a wind up?

0:16:03 > 0:16:05I take it it's not him, then?

0:16:05 > 0:16:06No!

0:16:06 > 0:16:09Negative, that's a negative.

0:16:09 > 0:16:10He's nothing like him!

0:16:10 > 0:16:14No offence, Al, but your description was hardly forensic.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17I was concentrating on my work at the time.

0:16:17 > 0:16:20Absence of detail is often the biggest sign that somebody's lying.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22- I was not lying.- Right...

0:16:22 > 0:16:24Look, I've done nothing wrong.

0:16:24 > 0:16:25I was trying to help her out!

0:16:25 > 0:16:27Let's get you back.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35I've decided I want Chinese tonight.

0:16:35 > 0:16:36Oh, I thought you were going out.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39- Me?- Isn't that why you need a babysitter?

0:16:39 > 0:16:40A babysitter?

0:16:40 > 0:16:41I got my nights wrong.

0:16:41 > 0:16:42No,

0:16:42 > 0:16:44I did.

0:16:44 > 0:16:46I'm going bonkers.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Why'd you need a babysitter if I'm home?

0:16:49 > 0:16:52Karen got the date wrong, didn't you hear what she said?

0:16:57 > 0:16:58Bye.

0:17:01 > 0:17:03No... No. No!

0:17:03 > 0:17:04Hold up!

0:17:10 > 0:17:12Oh, come on!

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Hello.

0:17:29 > 0:17:31I've locked myself out.

0:17:31 > 0:17:33My phone is trapped in there too.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36So I was wondering if I could borrow yours to call a locksmith?

0:17:38 > 0:17:40Look, that thing earlier about the toilet roll?

0:17:40 > 0:17:42It's absolutely nothing.

0:17:42 > 0:17:44The policeman Rob had no business even mentioning it.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49I'm not going to beg.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51If you want to help me, that's great,

0:17:51 > 0:17:53but if not, I will just find someone else.

0:17:54 > 0:17:55Why don't you do that?

0:18:04 > 0:18:06Ooh!

0:18:08 > 0:18:10OK, Cool, ta.

0:18:11 > 0:18:12Thank you so much.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15Oh, that's all right. How long will they be, then?

0:18:15 > 0:18:16Up to an hour.

0:18:16 > 0:18:17Oh.

0:18:17 > 0:18:18HE SNIFFS

0:18:18 > 0:18:19Something smells good.

0:18:19 > 0:18:21I've been baking some rock cakes.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24Right, lovely. I'll leave you in peace, then.

0:18:24 > 0:18:27- Where are you going to wait for them?- Er, outside my house.

0:18:27 > 0:18:28For a whole hour?

0:18:28 > 0:18:29- I'll survive.- Oh, don't be daft.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31Wait in here.

0:18:32 > 0:18:33Have a rock cake.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35No, I'll be fine. Thank you.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37I've got cream and jam too.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48"Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven,

0:18:48 > 0:18:50"for she loved much.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53"But he who forgives little, loves little."

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Luke, chapter seven.

0:18:56 > 0:18:57Mrs Tembe...

0:18:57 > 0:19:00I did not mean to lie to you.

0:19:00 > 0:19:05If your husband hadn't turned up, would you ever have told me the truth?

0:19:05 > 0:19:06Yes, of course!

0:19:06 > 0:19:07How long would you have waited?

0:19:11 > 0:19:15Just tell me I have not ruined this, Gordon.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18I'm sorry, I have to take a call from the bishop.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26I baked them for the meeting at Sarah's.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Well, you've got to do your bit, haven't you?

0:19:28 > 0:19:30I don't need to ask if you'll be there.

0:19:30 > 0:19:31Well...

0:19:31 > 0:19:32PHONE RINGS

0:19:32 > 0:19:33Oh, excuse me.

0:19:36 > 0:19:37Hello?

0:19:39 > 0:19:41Oh, hello, love. Are your ears burning?

0:19:41 > 0:19:43I've been singing your praises.

0:19:43 > 0:19:47Yes. Yes, he is. He's demolishing one of my rock cakes.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51Your phone's working again then?

0:19:56 > 0:19:57Yes, I see.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01Thank you.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04No, I should be...

0:20:06 > 0:20:08Well, I will call you if...

0:20:08 > 0:20:09Yes.

0:20:12 > 0:20:13Bye.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19That was Sarah.

0:20:19 > 0:20:20Was it?

0:20:22 > 0:20:25Dr Haskey, I think it might be better if you waited outside after all.

0:20:27 > 0:20:28Of course.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33Actually, no.

0:20:33 > 0:20:35No, I'm not going to leave.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38I mean, of course I'll go if you really want me to, but you'll have to say why.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40What was it she said?

0:20:41 > 0:20:42Look, Wanda...

0:20:42 > 0:20:43Wendy.

0:20:43 > 0:20:44Wendy.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47Out of the goodness of my heart, I did Sally a favour

0:20:47 > 0:20:49and somehow it has gone really, really weird.

0:20:49 > 0:20:52I can assure you that you and all your lovely belongings

0:20:52 > 0:20:54are perfectly safe with me.

0:20:54 > 0:20:55From me.

0:20:57 > 0:20:58I'm not a thief.

0:20:58 > 0:20:59I'm a doctor!

0:21:19 > 0:21:22It would be risky, but I'm not the only one who doesn't know their neighbours.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24And with all the stuff that gets delivered now...

0:21:24 > 0:21:26'You could be onto something there.'

0:21:26 > 0:21:28You say he was calm throughout?

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Dead calm.

0:21:30 > 0:21:34Well, if that's his MO, he's probably done it before.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36ENGINE REVS

0:21:36 > 0:21:37Thanks.

0:21:43 > 0:21:44Thanks.

0:21:45 > 0:21:47CHURCH ORGAN PLAYS

0:22:05 > 0:22:06You sure?

0:22:06 > 0:22:08100%.

0:22:10 > 0:22:11OK, guys, go.

0:22:11 > 0:22:13Repeat, go.

0:22:17 > 0:22:20CAR HORNS BEEPS

0:22:20 > 0:22:23Richie Gardener, hello, mate, can I have a quick word?

0:22:23 > 0:22:25I'm arresting you on suspicion of theft.

0:22:25 > 0:22:27You don't have to say anything but it may harm your defence

0:22:27 > 0:22:30if you don't mention when questioned something you later rely on in court.

0:22:44 > 0:22:45You are right.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48We must all find it in us to forgive.

0:22:50 > 0:22:51And...

0:22:52 > 0:22:54I believe if you manage that, a great weight

0:22:54 > 0:22:57will be lifted from your shoulders.

0:22:57 > 0:22:58If I manage it?

0:22:59 > 0:23:01You must go to Thomas,

0:23:02 > 0:23:06tell him you forgive him and seek forgiveness from him.

0:23:07 > 0:23:08You think I have wronged him?

0:23:09 > 0:23:13What I know for sure is this, it is wrong to condemn.

0:23:13 > 0:23:16Love and forgiveness are the true teachings of Christ.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19That is all you and I must hold onto.

0:23:20 > 0:23:22You and I.

0:23:24 > 0:23:25Yes.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29So will you go to your husband?

0:23:29 > 0:23:30Yes.

0:23:31 > 0:23:32Yes.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42Yeah?

0:23:42 > 0:23:46I don't want to be nosey but when I babysat for you,

0:23:46 > 0:23:48you said that under no circumstances,

0:23:48 > 0:23:50should I leave Daniel alone with Joe.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52So?

0:23:52 > 0:23:54You still don't trust him, do you?

0:23:55 > 0:23:58They are often alone in the same room together.

0:23:58 > 0:24:00But you're always in the house, right?

0:24:00 > 0:24:03Sorry, Zara, but Joe is Daniel's son.

0:24:03 > 0:24:07No matter what he did to you, he has a right to be trusted with him.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Does he?

0:24:09 > 0:24:11How can you say that?

0:24:11 > 0:24:14Because you know nothing, Karen.

0:24:14 > 0:24:15I know a control freak when I see one!

0:24:15 > 0:24:18I once...

0:24:18 > 0:24:21found Daniel shaking Joe, OK?

0:24:21 > 0:24:23Shaking him how, exactly?

0:24:23 > 0:24:27Oh, do you mean was he going for a single sharp shake that snaps the spine

0:24:27 > 0:24:29or more repeated shaking that would just cause brain damage?

0:24:29 > 0:24:32After that I wouldn't take any risks with him.

0:24:32 > 0:24:33And neither would you.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38I'm sorry, I didn't realise it was so serious.

0:24:39 > 0:24:40Well, now you do.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43But you're back together? How does that work?

0:24:49 > 0:24:53You'll be pleased to know that "George" is presently in a custody cell.

0:24:53 > 0:24:57And that's all thanks to your very observant neighbour, Al.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01Goodnight, Mrs Jones.

0:25:01 > 0:25:03Thanks, Rob.

0:25:03 > 0:25:05I owe you an apology.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07No, no, I should make more effort with my neighbours.

0:25:07 > 0:25:11Tim will be very, very pleased.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13- Oh, hello.- Hi.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15Dr Haskey.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17The police found it.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19Thanks to Al.

0:25:19 > 0:25:22Oh, I am pleased.

0:25:24 > 0:25:27- No, it's fine.- Go on through. The hungry hordes are waiting.

0:25:27 > 0:25:29Oh, yes.

0:25:29 > 0:25:31See you both in a minute then.

0:25:33 > 0:25:34Good turnout then?

0:25:34 > 0:25:36Very.

0:25:36 > 0:25:38Right, I'll be off.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40What you said this morning, about speed bumps...

0:25:40 > 0:25:44Yeah, well, it was all true, all fact.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47But it's not what I believe.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49Getting involved isn't everyone's cup of tea.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53Why do you "get involved"?

0:25:54 > 0:25:58Maybe I'm scared of feeling alone.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01Actually, I just think if a street gets together,

0:26:01 > 0:26:03life is better for everyone.

0:26:03 > 0:26:04They'd love to meet you.

0:26:06 > 0:26:07Maybe I'll come back later.

0:26:08 > 0:26:09Dr Haskey?

0:26:09 > 0:26:11- Call me Al.- Al.

0:26:11 > 0:26:15What was all that earlier about toilet rolls?

0:26:15 > 0:26:16It's nothing.

0:26:23 > 0:26:27I am going to see Thomas tomorrow.

0:26:27 > 0:26:29You have given me courage.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32I want to use it before it deserts me.

0:26:34 > 0:26:37I know this is a test, Gordon.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41And I am sure you will find it in yourself to come through it.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43And if I do?

0:26:43 > 0:26:45Then your world will look very different.

0:26:45 > 0:26:46Of that I'm sure.

0:27:09 > 0:27:10Hello, Thomas.

0:27:11 > 0:27:12DS Cartwright?

0:27:12 > 0:27:15I don't know what you're doing with her? She's poison.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17That's a bit harsh.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19You took so much away from me, Thomas.

0:27:19 > 0:27:22I trusted you. But you turned on me.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24Why did you stay with him, Aunty Rose?

0:27:24 > 0:27:26I was scared.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28Did Uncle Frank write these?
