0:00:33 > 0:00:34Dad?

0:00:34 > 0:00:37- I can manage. - Don't be daft. Sit down. Come on.

0:00:49 > 0:00:50Don't start.

0:00:50 > 0:00:51I didn't say anything.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56I still can't get used to you with your hair that colour.

0:01:00 > 0:01:05Listen, it's just games after lunch, so...

0:01:05 > 0:01:06No chance.

0:01:06 > 0:01:07But, Dad...

0:01:07 > 0:01:10You're not bunking off school on my account.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13Look, the doctor's coming. I'll be fine.

0:01:17 > 0:01:18Thanks.

0:01:20 > 0:01:22Leave that. I'll do it later.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25We've no powder. I could nip to the shop and get some.

0:01:25 > 0:01:26No!

0:01:30 > 0:01:35Just...eat your breakfast. You're going to be late.

0:01:35 > 0:01:36I'm not hungry.

0:01:38 > 0:01:40It's the most important meal of the day.

0:01:40 > 0:01:41That's what Faye says.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Does she now?

0:01:45 > 0:01:47You know, it would be good to finally meet Faye.

0:01:47 > 0:01:50Why don't you invite her round for tea or something?

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Tea? Dad, that's so old!

0:01:54 > 0:01:56Look, there you go.

0:01:57 > 0:01:59Now school.

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Took your time, didn't you?

0:02:27 > 0:02:30Sorry.

0:02:30 > 0:02:32- Sorry?- You did what?

0:02:32 > 0:02:33I asked her to marry me.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Valerie?

0:02:35 > 0:02:38Barry? Are you serious?

0:02:38 > 0:02:41I will have you know, Barry Biglow's always been very kind to me.

0:02:44 > 0:02:48We could go round the shops or hang out in the park.

0:02:51 > 0:02:52If you're going to be like this,

0:02:52 > 0:02:55then you should have gone to flippin' school!

0:02:56 > 0:02:58I think I'll go home.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02Dad says he's all right but he can't even make it as far as the doctor's.

0:03:02 > 0:03:03That's not OK, is it?

0:03:05 > 0:03:06I've told you what we have to do.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10I don't know. It sounds a bit...

0:03:10 > 0:03:13If you really wanted to help, you'd let me sort it.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18Aren't you scared?

0:03:18 > 0:03:22No, but I know what I'm doing. You should be.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27It's proper dark magic. You can't mess about.

0:03:30 > 0:03:31So are you up for it or what?

0:03:33 > 0:03:39Right, so your mum legging it, your dad's illness -

0:03:39 > 0:03:42stands to reason. It's the Morrigan.

0:03:43 > 0:03:47She'll be passing herself off as human.

0:03:47 > 0:03:50We find out who it is and we get her to make it right.

0:03:52 > 0:03:53What if she won't?

0:03:55 > 0:04:00Then we'll have to...deal with her.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06I never realised you were so close.

0:04:06 > 0:04:07She's a good woman.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11He's a good man.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14Of course. I'm sure that you wouldn't even be considering it

0:04:14 > 0:04:15if you didn't like him.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18I like Heston but I don't want to marry him!

0:04:19 > 0:04:22The point is, do you love him?

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Love's a funny thing, isn't it?

0:04:29 > 0:04:32It can grow, if you have a seed and the right soil

0:04:32 > 0:04:35and you plant it in the sun and water it.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Am I being mad? Be honest.

0:04:39 > 0:04:43- Of course, our opinion doesn't really matter.- No, no, no!

0:04:44 > 0:04:47It's a big step, marriage. Am I doing the right thing?

0:04:47 > 0:04:49She has said yes, I take it?

0:04:49 > 0:04:51Not exactly.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54- Have you even slept together? - That is none of our business!

0:04:54 > 0:04:57What if we're not compatible?

0:04:57 > 0:05:00Can you imagine Barry naked?!

0:05:00 > 0:05:03Anyway, where's all this come from?

0:05:03 > 0:05:06The big C certainly focuses the mind.

0:05:07 > 0:05:12Made me realise there's no sense wasting time, so I went for it.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17Well, I'm sure he wouldn't have asked you because of that.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20Yes, but it is going to influence my answer, isn't it? That's the thing.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28Don't get me wrong, I do want to get married.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31- To Valerie?- She is...- Bonkers!

0:05:31 > 0:05:34..a very unique individual.

0:05:34 > 0:05:36One of a kind.

0:05:36 > 0:05:40But the cancer's real. It's a big commitment for you both.

0:05:44 > 0:05:49No. The vows say "in sickness and in health".

0:05:51 > 0:05:52That's good enough for me.

0:05:56 > 0:05:57Good morning, Mill Health Centre?

0:05:57 > 0:05:59You could have been a bit more diplomatic!

0:05:59 > 0:06:02You can't seriously think this is a good idea?

0:06:02 > 0:06:05Barry is a good man. He might be just what Valerie needs.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07How do you make that out?

0:06:07 > 0:06:11Because he might make her believe that she has a future.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13Maybe you should think about that

0:06:13 > 0:06:15before you open your big mouth next time!

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Come on, think!

0:06:23 > 0:06:24I am.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26It's got to be somebody who, you know,

0:06:26 > 0:06:28could do it and not be noticed -

0:06:28 > 0:06:31somebody who had access to your mum and your dad.

0:06:36 > 0:06:37What?

0:06:37 > 0:06:41That doctor - Donoghue, whatever her name is,

0:06:41 > 0:06:44she was seeing Mum before she left.

0:06:44 > 0:06:45Does she know your dad?

0:06:47 > 0:06:48She's seeing him today.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51That's it, then. Got to be.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57I don't really know him, you see.

0:06:57 > 0:07:01Yes, but this is Barry and marriage we're talking.

0:07:01 > 0:07:02Well...

0:07:03 > 0:07:10Valerie, do you think that you might be...rushing into this a bit?

0:07:11 > 0:07:14Because we just want you to be sure.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Maybe you could do a pros and cons list.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19- Actually, that's a really good idea. - OK.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22Pros - he was very good at the elections.

0:07:22 > 0:07:25- I was thinking more personal things. - Oh.

0:07:26 > 0:07:29We did nearly snog at the Christmas party.

0:07:29 > 0:07:34- OK.- And he bought me a plant for Valentine's Day last year.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36Lovely.

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Casanova's got nothing on him!

0:07:39 > 0:07:41- What about cons?- He's Barry!

0:07:41 > 0:07:43Valerie, this is huge.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46It's a big commitment. You need to be sure.

0:07:46 > 0:07:50So the question is, do you want to spend the rest of your life

0:07:50 > 0:07:52with Barry?

0:07:52 > 0:07:54Barry?

0:07:54 > 0:07:55Barry?

0:08:02 > 0:08:04What are you doing home?

0:08:04 > 0:08:06- I'm not well.- What's wrong?

0:08:09 > 0:08:11Ellie, I told you I'd be fine.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14- You shouldn't have to worry about all this stuff.- No.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17I told you, I've got games after lunch.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21It's...you know...

0:08:23 > 0:08:24- Mum'd get it.- Oh, OK.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26KNOCK AT DOOR

0:08:26 > 0:08:28- Don't!- It's just the doctor.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31- Please don't answer it!- Ellie, it's fine. It's just Dr Donoghue.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34- No, Dad! No!- Hey, hey, hey, Ellie! Don't be so silly! Let go!

0:08:34 > 0:08:36- Please! What's got into you? - Mr Latch, are you in?

0:08:36 > 0:08:39Yeah, I'm fine...the door's open.

0:08:40 > 0:08:42- Ellie, what...- You all right?

0:08:44 > 0:08:46Yeah. Fine, thanks.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Sorry. Come on in.

0:09:00 > 0:09:01Well, that was rubbish.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05I tried.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08I told you, it's not for wimps.

0:09:08 > 0:09:12You've let her cross the threshold and now she's got your dad.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15You'll be next.

0:09:18 > 0:09:19And you're floating.

0:09:21 > 0:09:25When thoughts come, just notice them...

0:09:26 > 0:09:30..turn them into waves and watch them dissipate.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34He looks so peaceful.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Under her spell, more like.

0:09:36 > 0:09:40And in a few moments, you'll take some deep breaths...

0:09:42 > 0:09:46..calm, and open your eyes.

0:09:51 > 0:09:55Thanks. I know that stress doesn't help.

0:09:56 > 0:10:00And yet there are still people that say that CFS is all in the mind.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02They should spend a few days in my shoes.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04You've been doing really well.

0:10:04 > 0:10:06This is just a bit of a bad spell.

0:10:07 > 0:10:08Told you.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14- Dr Carter said you'd gone to the Mill.- Yeah.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16- Did you see her?- No.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19- Nothing on the old jungle drums? - Er...

0:10:19 > 0:10:20She's considering it.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22- Seriously?- Apparently.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25Maybe you should get serious, too.

0:10:25 > 0:10:30- What do you mean?- Well, flirting is one thing. Marriage is 24/7.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32She's in your stuff, she's in your space.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34Maybe you should think about it.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45You heard it with your own ears. It's her, for sure.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51Say it.

0:10:51 > 0:10:52I can't.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55Say it.

0:10:58 > 0:10:59Say it.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03Say it!

0:11:05 > 0:11:06She's the Morrigan.

0:11:06 > 0:11:07Louder!

0:11:07 > 0:11:08She's the Morrigan.

0:11:10 > 0:11:11She's the Morrigan!

0:11:18 > 0:11:20She's the Morrigan.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22Are these all Ellie's?

0:11:22 > 0:11:24You're still her doctor, aren't you?

0:11:24 > 0:11:26Who, Ellie's? Yeah.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28No, not Ellie.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31- Simon... - I just want to know she's all right.

0:11:31 > 0:11:34I don't blame her for leaving. I didn't understand how

0:11:34 > 0:11:37depressed she was, how much she was struggling.

0:11:38 > 0:11:40I can't tell you where she is.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43If she wants you to know, she'll tell you herself.

0:11:43 > 0:11:45Please. Ellie needs her mum.

0:11:46 > 0:11:47I'm sorry.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50How is Ellie coping anyway?

0:11:51 > 0:11:53You saw when you came in.

0:11:53 > 0:11:55Why is she home from school?

0:11:55 > 0:11:59She says she's been sent home with period cramps

0:11:59 > 0:12:02- but I'm not so sure.- Oh?

0:12:02 > 0:12:06After her mum left, she's been hanging around with this girl, Faye.

0:12:06 > 0:12:07I've not met her but...

0:12:07 > 0:12:09You think she might be a bad influence?

0:12:12 > 0:12:15Well, she's a good little artist.

0:12:15 > 0:12:16Mm.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20Would you like me to try and talk to her?

0:12:22 > 0:12:23OK.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25She can't know I'm here. You heard your dad - he hates me.

0:12:28 > 0:12:29Listen to me.

0:12:29 > 0:12:34Don't tell her about me. She'll do stuff, horrid stuff,

0:12:34 > 0:12:37anything to keep us apart.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40Promise you won't tell. Promise!

0:12:44 > 0:12:45I was a teenage girl myself once.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50Ellie!

0:12:50 > 0:12:53You weren't listening at the door, were you?

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Shall we have a little chat?

0:12:59 > 0:13:01So, seriously, what do you think I should do?

0:13:01 > 0:13:03Wish I hadn't said anything!

0:13:03 > 0:13:05Barry, why don't you just speak to Valerie?

0:13:05 > 0:13:07Abandon my post?

0:13:07 > 0:13:08Yes?

0:13:12 > 0:13:17Dr Clay did impart some much-needed words of wisdom.

0:13:18 > 0:13:22You're quite right. Living with someone else, even my Valerie,

0:13:22 > 0:13:26is going to be a challenge, so I've been thinking it through.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31- Did you come to any conclusion?- Mm.

0:13:31 > 0:13:36I'm no pushover. There are some things I won't compromise on.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38The dishcloth, for one.

0:13:38 > 0:13:39What?

0:13:39 > 0:13:41A dishcloth's got more germs than a loo seat.

0:13:41 > 0:13:45My grandmother bleached hers every night and so will I.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47Sure you'll agree, Dr Clay?

0:13:47 > 0:13:49Yeah. Yeah, anything else?

0:13:54 > 0:13:57CDs to be put back in the right case

0:13:57 > 0:13:59and stored alphabetically at all times.

0:13:59 > 0:14:02No interrupting when Ken Bruce is on the radio.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05Great man, Ken Bruce.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10I could listen to his voice all day.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12And a solid eight hours' sleep every night.

0:14:12 > 0:14:16Non-negotiable, that. A man needs his sleep.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18And apart from all that, you're completely flexible?

0:14:18 > 0:14:22I think Valerie will find I'm an easygoing sort of chap.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24We should get on all right.

0:14:34 > 0:14:35What's this?

0:14:36 > 0:14:40You know, flowers. No reason.

0:14:40 > 0:14:41You know this spread betting thing?

0:14:41 > 0:14:44I was talking to Janice from CID at work - you know, Janice and Jason.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47And she bought Jason a Harley-Davidson from the profits, apparently.

0:14:47 > 0:14:49I'm not going to buy you a Harley.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51If this goes well, I could retire, be a kept man.

0:14:51 > 0:14:52I'd quite like to be a kept man!

0:14:52 > 0:14:56- It's not going to be that much. - But seriously, we could help Jack and Immie.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58We could treat ourselves to a proper holiday - Route 66 in America...

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Will you just shut up?!

0:15:00 > 0:15:03I'm not going to be able to help Immie or do any of the other stuff

0:15:03 > 0:15:07because, idiot that I am, I've lost the lot.

0:15:11 > 0:15:12- Did you do these?- Obviously.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16Dad hates them.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19Well, I'm sure it's just the subject matter.

0:15:22 > 0:15:25Do you know, when I was younger, I read all

0:15:25 > 0:15:29the stories about the Morrigan. It scared the life out of me.

0:15:29 > 0:15:30You've got to go.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37- DISTORTED:- You know, it doesn't help to keep things bottled up.

0:15:37 > 0:15:42- Now! Get out! Leave us alone!- OK.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44I didn't just pull this stuff out of thin air.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46I've done my research.

0:15:46 > 0:15:47What research?

0:15:47 > 0:15:50You know, if the FTSE's up or down or...

0:15:50 > 0:15:53I was doing really well last night, and then this morning,

0:15:53 > 0:15:54it's all gone belly up.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58But you are still up, though, aren't you?

0:16:00 > 0:16:02How much up?

0:16:02 > 0:16:03£7.53.

0:16:03 > 0:16:07£7.53?! I spent more than that on the flowers!

0:16:07 > 0:16:08- Will you shut up?- Sorry.

0:16:10 > 0:16:13- I'm sorry. It's not the end of the world.- Oh, get off! All I wanted...

0:16:13 > 0:16:16- What?- Well, it obviously doesn't matter, does it?

0:16:16 > 0:16:18- I never said that. - You didn't have to.

0:16:18 > 0:16:20- All you wanted is what? - I don't know!

0:16:24 > 0:16:26I'm so sorry.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28Has she ever shown that kind of aggression before?

0:16:28 > 0:16:31No, not before Faye came on the scene.

0:16:31 > 0:16:32And I've just spoken to the school.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34What did they say?

0:16:34 > 0:16:36That Ellie hasn't been in for days.

0:16:36 > 0:16:40Apparently, her form tutor Mrs Garriock's sent out letters

0:16:40 > 0:16:41asking me to go in.

0:16:41 > 0:16:43But you haven't received them?

0:16:43 > 0:16:45She says Ellie's become withdrawn

0:16:45 > 0:16:47and hardly speaks to any of her friends any more.

0:16:47 > 0:16:48Except Faye?

0:16:48 > 0:16:50Well, that's the other thing.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52Mrs Garriock's never heard of Faye Morton.

0:16:52 > 0:16:53She's not at Ellie's school.

0:16:53 > 0:16:56Is she at a neighbouring school, perhaps?

0:16:56 > 0:16:57I don't know.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01I'm so sorry but I've got other calls I need to make today.

0:17:01 > 0:17:03Oh, of course, of course, sorry.

0:17:03 > 0:17:06We've taken up far too much of your time.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11Why don't you ask Faye over for a sleepover?

0:17:11 > 0:17:15I'm sure you'd feel better once you got to know her.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18Listen, I'll see myself out. Try not to worry.

0:17:18 > 0:17:19OK, thanks.

0:17:23 > 0:17:24I told you!

0:17:24 > 0:17:25I'm sorry.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28They're going to try and make me go away, too.

0:17:28 > 0:17:29No, I won't let them.

0:17:29 > 0:17:35Bad magic - it's too powerful. Now your dad's a part of it.

0:17:35 > 0:17:37No, he isn't. He can't be!

0:17:37 > 0:17:41They've taken your mum and now they've got him.

0:17:41 > 0:17:42No!

0:17:47 > 0:17:52Don't worry, I'm here. I'll look after you.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58Do you really think she's going to make my dad leave?

0:18:00 > 0:18:01Unless...

0:18:02 > 0:18:03Unless what?

0:18:06 > 0:18:07Never mind.

0:18:07 > 0:18:11No, please tell me. Whatever it is, I'll do it.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16OK, but you'll have to be brave...

0:18:19 > 0:18:21..and do exactly as I say or it won't work.

0:18:23 > 0:18:28I'm warning you - if the Morrigan wins, she'll take everything...

0:18:30 > 0:18:36..your dad, your home, me, everything.

0:18:38 > 0:18:39Do you understand?

0:18:42 > 0:18:44So I was thinking an Easter wedding.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46It's more romantic?

0:18:46 > 0:18:48So I'll live long enough.

0:18:48 > 0:18:51And doves, I definitely want doves. And Ricky Delaine.

0:18:51 > 0:18:53He will obviously have to sing for my first dance.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Obviously.

0:18:55 > 0:18:57So what are you walking down the aisle to?

0:18:57 > 0:18:58I've got it on here.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00You're going to love this. It's perfect!

0:19:05 > 0:19:06I don't know about this.

0:19:08 > 0:19:11I warned you. It's the only way.

0:19:11 > 0:19:12You can't wimp out now.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17She doesn't look like the Morrigan.

0:19:17 > 0:19:18Look more closely.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23You have to do it. You have to break the spell.

0:19:26 > 0:19:27You can see it now, can't you?

0:19:43 > 0:19:44Now!

0:19:44 > 0:19:46ELLIE SCREAMS

0:19:48 > 0:19:49SHE GASPS

0:19:49 > 0:19:51MUSIC: Over The Rainbow by Eva Cassidy

0:19:51 > 0:19:59# Somewhere over the rainbow... #

0:20:00 > 0:20:02Ellie? OK.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04Forward. Good girl.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Just going to roll you gently. Good girl.

0:20:07 > 0:20:08It's OK. It's OK.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11Deep breaths. Deep breaths. OK.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15I love it. Always makes me feel sad, though.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20It is a bit of a weird choice, given the circumstances.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25You know, because...

0:20:25 > 0:20:26It's Eva Cassidy.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31- It's a great song, though. - Yes, brilliant.

0:20:34 > 0:20:35She died.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37Oh, no! When?

0:20:38 > 0:20:39Ages ago.

0:20:39 > 0:20:43She had cancer, Valerie. Sorry, I just assumed you...

0:20:43 > 0:20:46Nobody really does know, do they?

0:20:46 > 0:20:50- When their time's going to be up. - No, so you've got to stay positive.

0:20:50 > 0:20:53Live for the moment. That's right, isn't it?

0:20:53 > 0:20:54Yeah, we should.

0:20:57 > 0:20:58I should.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06Ellie, it's Dr Donoghue. Can you hear me?

0:21:08 > 0:21:11- DISTORTED:- You're going to be all right. Just don't move.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16- Please don't take my dad! - I'm not going to take your dad!

0:21:16 > 0:21:18No-one's going to take your dad! Look, here he is.

0:21:18 > 0:21:22- What's happened? Is she all right? - She's OK but she's hit her head.

0:21:22 > 0:21:25So keep her still, keep her awake and the ambulance is on its way.

0:21:25 > 0:21:26HE PANTS

0:21:26 > 0:21:28Hey, Ell, did you hear that? It's OK.

0:21:29 > 0:21:33I'm right here and Dr Donoghue's going to look after you.

0:21:33 > 0:21:34You're going to be all right.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50You could have been really badly hurt.

0:21:50 > 0:21:51If Dr Donoghue wasn't there...

0:21:51 > 0:21:54- DISTORTED:- It's because I was there.

0:21:54 > 0:22:00It's all right, Ellie. You tried to push me down the steps.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02You saved me.

0:22:02 > 0:22:05- Why wouldn't I? - Ellie, what's going on?

0:22:05 > 0:22:06Faye!

0:22:12 > 0:22:15Is it the head injury? Should I get someone?

0:22:15 > 0:22:16Is Faye here now?

0:22:17 > 0:22:19I don't understand.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21OK. You've never met Faye

0:22:21 > 0:22:23and no-one in school knows who she is.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31Ellie, when you fell over, you said something about me

0:22:31 > 0:22:33taking your dad away.

0:22:33 > 0:22:34What on earth made you think...?

0:22:34 > 0:22:37Faye said she took Mum.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40Your mum was very ill.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42You know about depression. We talked about that.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44Well, sometimes it gets so bad

0:22:44 > 0:22:46that you can't carry on with everyday life.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49- Is she dead?- No, absolutely not.

0:22:51 > 0:22:52So why doesn't she call me?

0:22:54 > 0:22:59Ellie, your mum is doing her very best to get well

0:22:59 > 0:23:02and to come home and take care of you.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05And she's safe where she is now. She's being looked after.

0:23:07 > 0:23:11Faye said you'd put us under a bad spell.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15Oh. Well, it's no doubt that you and your dad

0:23:15 > 0:23:17have had a really rough time lately

0:23:17 > 0:23:20but there's no magic here, I promise.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25But Mum went away cos she's ill and now you're ill, too.

0:23:25 > 0:23:29Yeah, but not in the same way. I'm not going anywhere.

0:23:32 > 0:23:33But Faye said...

0:23:33 > 0:23:36It sounds like Faye's been talking a lot of rubbish.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40Why didn't you come and talk to me?

0:23:40 > 0:23:42You're not supposed to get stressed out.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45Yeah, but you know the thing that stresses me out most of all?

0:23:45 > 0:23:49It's the thought of you trying to cope with all this stuff on your own.

0:23:52 > 0:23:53Is Faye still here?

0:23:56 > 0:24:00How would you like to talk to someone who can make sure

0:24:00 > 0:24:02that Faye doesn't bother you any more?

0:24:04 > 0:24:06You really won't leave me?

0:24:07 > 0:24:10Not while there's still breath in my body.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15OK, good.

0:24:15 > 0:24:17Leave it to me. I'll be in touch.

0:24:38 > 0:24:39Have you seen Barry?

0:24:42 > 0:24:43I saw you come in.

0:24:45 > 0:24:46BARRY CLEARS THROAT

0:24:51 > 0:24:53- Valerie?- Barry?

0:24:53 > 0:24:55- I can't look.- Can't not look.

0:24:56 > 0:25:00Go on, then. I can take it.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Were you being serious?

0:25:06 > 0:25:08- Absolutely.- Ask me again.

0:25:10 > 0:25:11- Again?- Yes.

0:25:17 > 0:25:18BARRY CLEARS THROAT

0:25:22 > 0:25:23Miss Pitman...

0:25:25 > 0:25:29..would you do me the great honour of becoming my wife?

0:25:31 > 0:25:34I do! I mean, I will. Yep. Yes!

0:25:34 > 0:25:35Yes?

0:25:36 > 0:25:38SHE SQUEALS

0:25:49 > 0:25:52It's the same place, it's the same people.

0:25:53 > 0:25:54Not quite.

0:25:54 > 0:25:58I haven't needed anybody to order food for me since I was about ten.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01We're going to be husband and wife, not invalid and carer!

0:26:01 > 0:26:04Fine. I don't know what I was worrying about.

0:26:06 > 0:26:09Be under no illusions, Ayesha.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11You're on the thinnest of thin ice.
