0:00:25 > 0:00:28# Incy wincy spider climbed up the spout

0:00:28 > 0:00:31# Down came the rain and washed the spider out. #

0:00:31 > 0:00:34Washed the spider out!

0:00:34 > 0:00:37- All right, love?- Yeah, yeah.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39You'd better get going - your appointment's soon.

0:00:39 > 0:00:41Oh, I forgot that. What's it for?

0:00:41 > 0:00:44They never said. A review, probably.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46- See how you're doing. - I only had a review last month.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48Well, I'm just glad they're looking after you.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50- So get a move on.- OK.

0:00:50 > 0:00:53Mummy needs to chill out, doesn't she?

0:00:53 > 0:00:55Shall we put her in the fridge?

0:00:55 > 0:00:56SHE CHUCKLES

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Your coat and keys.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02Oh, thanks. Oops!

0:01:11 > 0:01:14We'll be OK, darling. Everything's going to be OK.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20- Ooh, Mrs Jenkins cancelled. Did I say that?- Oh, great.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23I was hoping to get out early. I haven't done any present-shopping.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26Really? I've done all mine. Crackers and all. Huh!

0:01:26 > 0:01:29But you can't leave yet because you've still got a 5:50 appointment.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31Oh, yeah. I forgot about that.

0:01:31 > 0:01:32And this came for him.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34Right. What is it?

0:01:34 > 0:01:36Oh!

0:01:36 > 0:01:39With all Dr Haskey's complaints,

0:01:39 > 0:01:42- I forgot about decorating here. - I'll do it!

0:01:43 > 0:01:47It needs to be tasteful and understated.

0:01:47 > 0:01:50This is weird - it's addressed to the patient.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52"Jed Fielding, care of the Campus Surgery."

0:01:52 > 0:01:56It was on the doormat earlier. Hand-delivered. Very mysterious.

0:01:56 > 0:01:58I'd better go check his notes. I've not seen him before.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Mr Fielding is a very nice man.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03He's an excellent plumber.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05He replaced a leaking tap for me.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07Right. Good.

0:02:07 > 0:02:12So, if tasteful and understated is what you need, I am your woman.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Miss Pitman...tasteful!

0:02:19 > 0:02:21Thanks!

0:02:21 > 0:02:23# God rest ye merry, gentlemen

0:02:23 > 0:02:25# Let nothing you dismay. #

0:02:25 > 0:02:27UPBEAT MUSIC

0:02:31 > 0:02:35Um...please can I have...a large brandy, please?

0:02:35 > 0:02:36Yeah, sure.

0:02:41 > 0:02:42Thank you.

0:02:48 > 0:02:49Lovely.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Yes, that will be fine. Thank you.

0:02:54 > 0:02:58- Evening, boss!- Ah, Mr Fielding. How lovely to see you.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00I thought you had your own office now, Mrs Tembe.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04Oh. Well, I do. It is back at the Mill Health Centre.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Come, I will check you in.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10How are your new taps working?

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Oh! They are excellent, thank you.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15- And how is little Billy? - Oh, brilliant, yeah. Chatting away.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18And he's walking now, too. Well, tottering.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20- He's a bit like my dad after he's had a few.- Hm.

0:03:22 > 0:03:23And how are you?

0:03:23 > 0:03:26Yeah, back to normal, pretty much, thanks to Dr Haskey.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29And all of you. I'm really grateful.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31Well, I am glad that the counselling is working.

0:03:31 > 0:03:33And the antidepressants.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Saved my life, literally.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38Next year's going to be my year, you wait.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40And I won't need to come for so many reviews.

0:03:40 > 0:03:44Well, according to this, your last review was last month.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Um...Jed Fielding?

0:03:47 > 0:03:49Where's Dr Haskey?

0:03:49 > 0:03:51Dr Vere is an excellent doctor.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53Come on in.

0:03:53 > 0:03:54OK, then.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58I can't believe she didn't break her back!

0:03:58 > 0:03:59- Or crack a rib.- Or get a concussion.

0:03:59 > 0:04:03And the way Heston behaved, anyone would think you'd pushed her off it on purpose!

0:04:03 > 0:04:06- Well, it was our idea. - Yeah, but it's better than asking for a fly tower!

0:04:06 > 0:04:08If it hadn't been for that bloody curtain!

0:04:08 > 0:04:10- Poor Ruhma!- Poor Heston!

0:04:10 > 0:04:13EMMA CHUCKLES BOTH: Large gin.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18EMMA LAUGHS

0:04:18 > 0:04:21So I see that you've had quite a difficult 18 months.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23I've had better.

0:04:24 > 0:04:28But you're feeling stronger now? No more unpleasant thoughts?

0:04:28 > 0:04:31No. Different time, that. I'm a new man.

0:04:31 > 0:04:35Great. So, um...how can I help?

0:04:35 > 0:04:38You called me in.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40I don't think so.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42The surgery phoned my girlfriend.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45No. It's definitely a patient-booked appointment.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Oh, yeah, sorry, um...this came for you.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53That's Amber's writing.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05HE READS: Dear Jed, I'm sorry for doing this, but I couldn't...

0:05:06 > 0:05:07..see another way.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10It's not that I don't love you, because I always will,

0:05:10 > 0:05:12but something just changed from when we...

0:05:14 > 0:05:15..first...

0:05:16 > 0:05:19- Oh. I really don't think I should... - Please!

0:05:19 > 0:05:21Please.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25SID SIGHS

0:05:25 > 0:05:26Um...

0:05:26 > 0:05:30- HE READS:- I'm not explaining this properly, I know, but

0:05:30 > 0:05:32I just need the doctor to make sure you're OK

0:05:32 > 0:05:35and don't take this the wrong way, or do anything silly.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Because I'm leaving.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41I'm sorry, but by the time you read this, I'll have gone.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Amber.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46I'm really sorry.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49I'm finished.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Look, um...Mr Fielding...?

0:05:56 > 0:05:57Mr Fielding, what is wrong?

0:05:57 > 0:05:59- I don't know what's happening! I don't understand!- Dr Vere?

0:05:59 > 0:06:02- He's had a shock.- I need to see her.

0:06:02 > 0:06:03- Who?- Amber! I need...

0:06:03 > 0:06:05MRS TEMBE SIGHS

0:06:05 > 0:06:08Let's go back in here, OK?

0:06:08 > 0:06:10Look, why don't you come and sit down for a moment,

0:06:10 > 0:06:12just until you have calmed down?

0:06:12 > 0:06:15Why's she doing this, huh? And where's she gone?

0:06:16 > 0:06:18I can't think straight. What am I going to do? I...

0:06:18 > 0:06:20Come on. Whoa-whoa. Come on.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30Hello? It's only Grandpa.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33I didn't want to ring the bell cos of the bab.

0:06:33 > 0:06:34Hello?

0:06:34 > 0:06:36BABY WAILS

0:06:36 > 0:06:38KNOCK AT DOOR

0:06:40 > 0:06:42Amber?

0:06:42 > 0:06:44What's going on?

0:06:44 > 0:06:46Don't try and stop me.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48You can't leave him!

0:06:48 > 0:06:51The guy's depressed, for heaven's sake! He's on his knees!

0:06:51 > 0:06:54- Does he know? - I've sent him up the doctor's.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56They'll make sure he's OK.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59And he's better now, anyway. Better than he was.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01- Then why the hell are you...? - I've got my reasons, OK?

0:07:01 > 0:07:04And before you ask, no, I'm not seeing anyone else.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06- Where are you going, then? - To my mum's in Liverpool.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09- You can't go at this hour! - Don't tell me what to do, please!

0:07:09 > 0:07:10This is hard enough as it is.

0:07:10 > 0:07:14Come on, Amber. Whatever's happened, it will blow over.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Nothing's happened.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18What's it going to do to him?!

0:07:19 > 0:07:22Come on now, darling. The taxi will be here soon.

0:07:22 > 0:07:25- PHONE RINGS - Could you...?

0:07:26 > 0:07:28No chance!

0:07:33 > 0:07:35She's not answering.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38We've had some silly rows recently, but, I thought...

0:07:39 > 0:07:40Well, you know.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44I mean, we're best mates.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47And there's Billy. It's always tough when you've got a kid, isn't it?

0:07:47 > 0:07:50- It is.- She was fine earlier.

0:07:50 > 0:07:53She can't have gone far. I'll find her and sort everything out.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Yeah, that's a good idea.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57What's this?

0:07:57 > 0:08:00Um... Well, er...it's, um...

0:08:03 > 0:08:05There is so much to do.

0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Have you seen his production schedule?- Oh, yes.

0:08:08 > 0:08:12An authentic Victorian Christmas dinner for the Cratchits. Honestly!

0:08:12 > 0:08:15- EMMA LAUGHS - And what about the wind machine

0:08:15 > 0:08:18because he wants to create an ethereal atmosphere for the ghosts?

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Without killing them in the process.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22If they were dead, at least they'd be authentic!

0:08:22 > 0:08:24Actual ghosts. A theatrical wonder!

0:08:24 > 0:08:26Yeah, until they're arrested!

0:08:26 > 0:08:29Seriously, though, is Heston always like this?

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Well, I mean, I love him to bits,

0:08:31 > 0:08:33but when he's being a luvvie, he just loses all reason.

0:08:33 > 0:08:37We have got to find a way to rein in his expectations somehow.

0:08:37 > 0:08:40Which is why I have made a list of essentials.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43Nothing else happens unless there's time.

0:08:43 > 0:08:44Narrow it down. Good thinking.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49- These are his essentials?- Afraid so.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51LENA MOCK-SOBS

0:08:51 > 0:08:53- EMMA LAUGHS - Don't worry.

0:08:53 > 0:08:59Look, we can start by getting rid of this, this, and this!

0:08:59 > 0:09:02Brilliant! Can you do that?

0:09:02 > 0:09:05- Oh, yeah. I can do anything. I'm the producer.- Mm.

0:09:05 > 0:09:06THEY CHUCKLE

0:09:06 > 0:09:10It's from an online lab. It's a reputable one, as far as I know,

0:09:10 > 0:09:14and, um...well, those are your results.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16They compare the DNA of a child with that of the parent,

0:09:16 > 0:09:18the, er...possible parent.

0:09:18 > 0:09:20What's he saying?

0:09:21 > 0:09:26Er...Dr Vere is saying that this seems to suggest that you are not...

0:09:28 > 0:09:30Well, that you are not Billy's father.

0:09:30 > 0:09:34Um...assuming that the swab was done correctly, that is.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36I never done a swab.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Well... Well, in that case...

0:09:38 > 0:09:41You can always do it while someone's sleeping.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44I once read of a guy who'd had too many drinks and then his wife...

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Well, er...thank you, Dr Vere - that is illegal.

0:09:48 > 0:09:52If this is true, Mr Fielding, I am so sorry.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54I don't understand what's happening!

0:09:54 > 0:09:58- KNOCK AT DOOR - I am so sorry, he insisted.

0:09:58 > 0:09:59Dad!

0:09:59 > 0:10:02JED SOBS

0:10:05 > 0:10:07- Hey.- Hey.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10Sorry I'm late.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12No pressure, then.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14- Sorry?- You've dressed up.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17- No. It's nothing special. - I think it is.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21- Smile. - No, I hate having my picture taken!

0:10:21 > 0:10:22You look fantastic.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26Hm?

0:10:27 > 0:10:29Hm!

0:10:29 > 0:10:32So, listen, I need your help.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34There's this refugee programme starting up in Birmingham

0:10:34 > 0:10:36and I really want to get on it.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39- Aren't you a saint?- Plus it will really help my postgrad.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42- Maybe not so saint-like.- Cheeky!

0:10:42 > 0:10:45Anyway, I was hoping that you'd help me with the application.

0:10:45 > 0:10:48- Of course I will.- It's a church-led project, so I thought of you.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50Yeah, I'd love to help. Who's it for?

0:10:52 > 0:10:54Do you really not know how beautiful you are?

0:10:54 > 0:10:57Max, you're getting a bit cheesy now. Dial it down.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07Just nipping to the gents.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17- Is this for real?! - I'm afraid we don't know.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19How could she do this to him?!

0:11:20 > 0:11:21If he's not your baby...

0:11:21 > 0:11:24I'd contact the lab, see what test they've done.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26- ..she's been with someone else! - We both were.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28When we split up, before I...

0:11:29 > 0:11:32- You'd think she knew who got her pregnant!- Not necessarily.

0:11:32 > 0:11:36I've read estimates that around 4% of children aren't their father's child.

0:11:36 > 0:11:39- I mean, the man who they think is their...- OK, thank you, Dr Vere.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41Well, there's no-one else involved, so she says,

0:11:41 > 0:11:43but she's still heading back to her mum's.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46- What, to Liverpool?!- On the train.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49- Son, come on!- I need my van keys!

0:11:49 > 0:11:51You're going nowhere in this state!

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Look, Amber's got it all wrong. I need to talk to her.

0:11:54 > 0:11:56It's a mix-up, she's confused.

0:11:56 > 0:11:58Why the hell didn't you stop her?!

0:11:58 > 0:12:00Look, I'm sorry, lad, but she's not confused.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04- She knows it's going to destroy you, but she's doing it anyway. - Don't say that!

0:12:05 > 0:12:08- I love her!- You've got to face it.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10No! I'm not going to get through this!

0:12:10 > 0:12:14You ARE going to get through this. Believe me.

0:12:16 > 0:12:20I am going to ask Miss Pitman to make you a nice strong cup of tea.

0:12:20 > 0:12:22And then you can talk this through calmly, OK?

0:12:22 > 0:12:24It's important to remain proactive.

0:12:24 > 0:12:31My father, God rest his soul, well, he taught me many things.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34But the most useful was,

0:12:34 > 0:12:39decide what you want and fight for it!

0:12:39 > 0:12:40All right?

0:12:42 > 0:12:44MRS TEMBE SIGHS

0:12:50 > 0:12:52What do you think?

0:12:52 > 0:12:53It's not quite right, is it?

0:12:55 > 0:12:58Dr Vere's patient would like a cup of tea.

0:12:58 > 0:12:59- Lovely.- No.

0:13:01 > 0:13:05I will make the tea, while you sort out...

0:13:08 > 0:13:09EMMA LAUGHS

0:13:09 > 0:13:13Oh! It's been ages since I had such a good laugh.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15Me, too.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18Honestly, I've had months of stress.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Did you hear I had cancer?

0:13:21 > 0:13:23- Valerie did say.- Course she did.

0:13:23 > 0:13:26Actually, I think the worst thing was having everyone worry about me.

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Especially the kids.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30I suppose at least Valerie had work to focus on.

0:13:30 > 0:13:31Oh, lucky her.

0:13:31 > 0:13:34I had such a good job.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36I'm actually quite good at PR, believe it or not.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39- I can believe it! - It just seemed so obvious.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42Jack it in, concentrate on getting well.

0:13:42 > 0:13:46All you do is worry, every second of the day.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50- So, how about you?- Me?

0:13:50 > 0:13:53Have you had one of those lovely, charmed existences

0:13:53 > 0:13:54I read about in glossy magazines?

0:13:54 > 0:13:58Someone in the world must have a straightforward life.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00Er...well, I'm sorry to disappoint you.

0:14:00 > 0:14:04Um...no, not particularly lovely,

0:14:04 > 0:14:08not charmed and definitely not straightforward.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Come on, then, spill.

0:14:11 > 0:14:17Really? That one is going to need two enormous G&Ts.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19LENA CHUCKLES

0:14:28 > 0:14:30I've messed up again.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33This isn't your fault. She was the one that was planning to leave!

0:14:37 > 0:14:38Well, I...I cancelled her taxi.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42She's probably booked another by now, anyway.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46Look, Jed...yes, this is a crisis,

0:14:46 > 0:14:48but you are strong enough to get through it, OK?

0:14:48 > 0:14:52If I lose them both, then everything's over.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55OK, look, you can give up, you can blame yourself,

0:14:55 > 0:14:59OR...you can be proactive.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02We should focus on Billy. I mean, what's best for him?

0:15:02 > 0:15:06Look, son, I know it's tough, but you've got to think of yourself.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09If you see her again, it could push you over the edge.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11Am I just supposed to forget him?

0:15:11 > 0:15:14I love him, I can't just switch that off!

0:15:14 > 0:15:15Course you can't.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17I need to talk to Amber.

0:15:17 > 0:15:21No, son, not tonight, not in this state!

0:15:21 > 0:15:24You need to be strong up here. You need a calm head,

0:15:24 > 0:15:26or everything could turn pear-shaped again.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29- I'll drive you to Liverpool tomorrow.- No.

0:15:31 > 0:15:32No, I've got to fight for her.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36Mrs Tembe's right.

0:15:45 > 0:15:47I'd forgotten how lame it is in here.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49I thought you liked the Icon.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51Not like this. Where's the atmos?

0:15:51 > 0:15:54We could go somewhere else.

0:15:54 > 0:15:56Or just call it a night.

0:15:56 > 0:16:01We could possibly go back to mine, if you want to?

0:16:01 > 0:16:03I'll look over your application, we can have a coffee.

0:16:05 > 0:16:09Now, that's the best idea I've heard all day. Come on, let's go.

0:16:09 > 0:16:10OK.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13Yeah, OK, hang on!

0:16:15 > 0:16:18I love him, Mrs Tembe. Doesn't that count for anything?

0:16:18 > 0:16:23Of course it does. And I am sure that he loves you, too.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26But you...you cannot drive all the way to Liverpool.

0:16:26 > 0:16:30No, I'm heading home. I think she might still be there.

0:16:30 > 0:16:34- Dad cancelled her taxi. - You cannot drive in this state.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36- You said, "Decide what you want." - I know, but...

0:16:36 > 0:16:39So...I've decided.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Well, can your father not drive you?

0:16:41 > 0:16:45He won't. He thinks I'll mess it up again, like usual.

0:16:45 > 0:16:47Well, you cannot drive alone.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49- No choice.- Oh!

0:16:51 > 0:16:53Look, I will go with you.

0:16:56 > 0:16:57Come.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01Thanks.

0:17:01 > 0:17:02My mum would love you, you know.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04She loves men that help in the kitchen.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06I didn't think we had a choice.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09Well, you don't, obviously, but she thinks you do.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12A woman's place and all that.

0:17:12 > 0:17:16- She sounds a bit old-fashioned. - Oh, she is.

0:17:16 > 0:17:19Not like me. Not at all like me.

0:17:19 > 0:17:22I'm quite...modern.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25Huh!

0:17:25 > 0:17:27No coffee. This is ridiculous!

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Oh, well...

0:17:30 > 0:17:32We can always skip convention.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34What do you mean?

0:17:34 > 0:17:35I hate coffee.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38Me, too.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40HE CHUCKLES

0:17:40 > 0:17:42I did not!

0:17:42 > 0:17:44We already missed one train!

0:17:46 > 0:17:48Jed! Mrs Tembe! What are you doing here?!

0:17:48 > 0:17:50- Hello, mate.- Hello, Mrs Fielding.

0:17:50 > 0:17:56Perhaps I should, er...take baby Billy into the next room, huh?

0:17:56 > 0:17:57Thank you.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01(All right, there you go.)

0:18:07 > 0:18:08It was a shock for me, too.

0:18:10 > 0:18:13Why do the test, Amber? I'd never have guessed.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16I saw the bloke the other day. Passed him on the street.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20- It was a one-night thing when we'd split. I told you about it.- Yeah.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25He didn't recognise me, but he was the spit of our Billy.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28I thought, "It's a sign. I've got to do a test!"

0:18:28 > 0:18:30HE SIGHS

0:18:30 > 0:18:33- You could have talked to me. - Sorry, but I had to be sure!

0:18:34 > 0:18:37I thought, if Billy is yours, then I've got to keep working at it.

0:18:37 > 0:18:40Make sure you never get depressed again, however hard that is.

0:18:40 > 0:18:43You know I love you. I love you both.

0:18:43 > 0:18:45Not when you swallowed all those pills, you didn't.

0:18:45 > 0:18:46- I did.- Not enough!

0:18:46 > 0:18:49I was six months pregnant, for God's sake!

0:18:49 > 0:18:52I thought you were looking forward to having a baby!

0:18:52 > 0:18:54- I thought it would help! - I'm so sorry.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56I know it's stupid, but I thought,

0:18:56 > 0:18:59if you weren't Billy's father, then maybe you deserve a fresh start.

0:18:59 > 0:19:03- How do you mean? - Well, I'm no good for you, am I?

0:19:03 > 0:19:05I can't make you happy.

0:19:05 > 0:19:08And now, with Billy not being yours, you deserve another chance.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10With someone who can love you properly.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12You've got it all backwards, love.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14The depression was about losing my mum. It caught up with me.

0:19:14 > 0:19:15That was years ago!

0:19:15 > 0:19:18I was so young when she died, I never really accepted it.

0:19:18 > 0:19:22Seeing you pregnant just...triggered something, I reckon.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24But it was never about you or Billy.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28I'm doing the counselling now.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30I understand. I'm better.

0:19:32 > 0:19:33How do I know it won't happen again?

0:19:33 > 0:19:35How can I be sure?

0:19:37 > 0:19:41When you're depressed, you feel like you've got no control.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Everything happens around you.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45But look at me, I'm here now, aren't I?

0:19:47 > 0:19:49I could've chucked myself off a cliff already.

0:19:49 > 0:19:53- I suppose so.- But I'm not going to.

0:19:53 > 0:19:58Now, if you want to leave, then...I can't stop you.

0:19:58 > 0:20:02If you don't want to be with me any more, then that is up to you.

0:20:02 > 0:20:06I just think Billy needs all the love and support he can get.

0:20:11 > 0:20:14So, in a nutshell, not a great couple of years.

0:20:14 > 0:20:16I thought I had it bad.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18You win on health, but I win on everything else.

0:20:18 > 0:20:22Nightmare! I cannot believe you got through that in one piece.

0:20:22 > 0:20:24Mm. I'm not sure I did.

0:20:24 > 0:20:25I haven't always.

0:20:27 > 0:20:30My behaviour of late has been a little risky.

0:20:30 > 0:20:33- Good for you! I love a bit of danger therapy.- Hm!

0:20:33 > 0:20:37It sounds like you're through the worst now and back into the sunshine maybe.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39Yeah, nearly.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41But I've had the support of some good friends, so...

0:20:41 > 0:20:44- Oh, do you mean, Valerie? - No, no. She had enough to deal with.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46I was thinking of my friend Niamh. She was amazing.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48But unfortunately, she's no longer around.

0:20:48 > 0:20:52Yeah. Steven was fantastic, but he always is.

0:20:52 > 0:20:56He's great with the kids, he works incredibly hard.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59- What more can you ask?- Good for you.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03Online dating, that's what you want to do.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07Find someone nice who'll look after you, put you first.

0:21:07 > 0:21:10No, I think with my luck, I'd end up with an axe-wielding murderer

0:21:10 > 0:21:11who has mother issues.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14Actually, I know what you mean about friendship.

0:21:14 > 0:21:18My best mate moved to Australia a couple of years before I got sick.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20Damn Australia!

0:21:20 > 0:21:22She'd have been so supportive,

0:21:22 > 0:21:25but what can you do from the other side of the world?

0:21:25 > 0:21:28Mm. You can't beat a best friend.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30You certainly cannot.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33- Here's to best friends! - To bezzie mates!

0:21:37 > 0:21:41Oh, no! Is it that time already? I've got to go.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43I've got a belligerent teenager at home to contend with.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46That's a cinch in comparison to Heston.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49I am really looking forward to working with you.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51- All of you.- Yeah, likewise.

0:21:58 > 0:21:59You OK, love?

0:22:01 > 0:22:03- Have you sorted things out?- A bit.

0:22:04 > 0:22:07Billy means the world to both of us, you know that.

0:22:07 > 0:22:09I couldn't do without the little fella.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12George loves you.

0:22:12 > 0:22:13He needs you.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15Don't do that, please, it's not fair!

0:22:15 > 0:22:17What did I say?

0:22:17 > 0:22:20Don't you think I need someone, too?

0:22:20 > 0:22:23I'm not strong enough for us both. I'm not!

0:22:23 > 0:22:26Yeah, but he's better now, he doesn't need so much help.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28I can't go on any more!

0:22:28 > 0:22:30I'm sorry, but I'm shattered!

0:22:30 > 0:22:32I know you sort me out a lot, organise me and that, but...

0:22:32 > 0:22:35You take as much looking after as Billy.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38I am so sorry to interrupt, but Billy's fast asleep.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41- Thank you.- Shall I take you back?

0:22:41 > 0:22:44Oh, no, thank you. I have a taxi waiting.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47But before I go, I just wanted to say

0:22:47 > 0:22:49that sometimes, after an illness,

0:22:49 > 0:22:51one partner can feel

0:22:51 > 0:22:55they are becoming more like a carer for the other.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59Relationship counselling can be a great help.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02We're grateful, Mrs Tembe.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05Right. Well, you are most welcome. Goodbye.

0:23:08 > 0:23:12That was really nice. Thank you.

0:23:12 > 0:23:16Hm! I don't think I've ever been thanked before.

0:23:17 > 0:23:20Oh. Sorry. I just meant...

0:23:20 > 0:23:24Don't worry. I know exactly what you meant.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26And you're very, very welcome.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33You're back. So, did they, er...sort it out?

0:23:33 > 0:23:35Well, I hope so.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38Well, he's doing really well, so I reckon they'll be OK.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40And...?

0:23:42 > 0:23:45Wow, Valerie! It's beautiful!

0:23:45 > 0:23:47- It's not too much?- No.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49Mrs Tembe?

0:23:51 > 0:23:53Well, I will have to agree with Dr Vere.

0:23:55 > 0:23:56It is perfect.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59You have done a very tasteful job, Miss Pitman.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02Oh, thank you! Both of you.

0:24:03 > 0:24:07Back then, it was all I could do to get through the day.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09There was nothing left here for anyone else.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13I thought I was better off gone.

0:24:13 > 0:24:14That you'd be better off, both of you.

0:24:14 > 0:24:18- Jed, you don't have to explain. - I do.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20So you understand.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23I wasn't thinking straight. I wasn't thinking, full stop.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28I needed help, and you were both there for me.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32I've done everything I can, Jed.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34There isn't any more!

0:24:34 > 0:24:37- I'm sorry.- I've got more now.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39I've got so much more for both of us.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44I'm better. And I'm never going to let myself get that bad again, I swear.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47I've got you to think of. And Billy.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51I'm so sorry he's not Jed's.

0:24:51 > 0:24:53I'd do anything to change that.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58He came into my world. That makes him mine.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05Will you do the relationship counselling?

0:25:05 > 0:25:06Yeah, I will.

0:25:09 > 0:25:13Amber, you're my best mate, I never want to lose you.

0:25:14 > 0:25:16I love you, Jed Fielding.

0:25:23 > 0:25:26Well, Billy needs his bed. I'll, er...I'll go and take him up.

0:25:26 > 0:25:30Dad? You sit down, I'll go.

0:25:46 > 0:25:47No, don't!

0:25:49 > 0:25:54We'll look back on today because this...was when it began.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56What are you talking about?

0:25:56 > 0:25:59Come on! Our first time together.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01No, Max!

0:26:02 > 0:26:04You said you enjoyed it.

0:26:04 > 0:26:05Yeah, I did.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08Just one? Come on!

0:26:08 > 0:26:11Rosie-Posie? Oh, pretty please!

0:26:12 > 0:26:14You look so sexy.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17Oh, go on. Just one, that's all.

0:26:20 > 0:26:21Smile.

0:26:21 > 0:26:23Hm?

0:26:25 > 0:26:26Yeah.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31That's it.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33Our happiest moment.

0:26:36 > 0:26:40Now, then...where were we?

0:26:40 > 0:26:43THEY GIGGLE

0:26:45 > 0:26:47I have a but, and it's a big but.

0:26:47 > 0:26:52The line is, "Lead on, spirit", not, "Giddy up, Spooky".

0:26:52 > 0:26:54At the moment, it's going to end up being a whodunnit.

0:26:54 > 0:26:56Who killed Heston Carter?

0:26:56 > 0:26:59And I tell you now, there are no shortage of suspects.

0:26:59 > 0:27:03- Right, you can open them. Ta-da! - It's very festive.

0:27:03 > 0:27:07I'm making an executive decision. You're fired.
