0:00:38 > 0:00:41You said you'd help me with winding up the B&B accounts!

0:00:41 > 0:00:45I know but the builder just called. He wants to start the plastering but he can't find the plans.

0:00:45 > 0:00:46- Plans?- Yeah.- Oh, right. So that's...

0:00:46 > 0:00:50- That's what you and Jane were arguing about?- I-I'm late.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52It's just, I don't know why you're being so cagey about it.

0:00:52 > 0:00:54It seems every time I ask you...

0:00:54 > 0:00:56Canteen tables. That's what it is. These big, long tables.

0:00:56 > 0:01:00- Jane wants to put 'em in there. - Yeah, well, that's very modern.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02It's a restaurant. It's... It's too familiar.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07- SHIRLEY:- What's that egg ever done to you?

0:01:07 > 0:01:11I'm sorry. I had a mad one last night with Tosh!

0:01:11 > 0:01:12If you don't want it...

0:01:12 > 0:01:14Nah, all goes down the same way.

0:01:14 > 0:01:15Said the actress to the bishop.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17- Or the bishop to the actor.- Tina!

0:01:21 > 0:01:24What has happened to you?

0:01:24 > 0:01:26Oh, nothing. Should've seen the state of the other geezer!

0:01:26 > 0:01:28That's looking better already.

0:01:28 > 0:01:30- SHIRLEY:- State you were in, could hardly look worse.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32- You never get into fights. - It's not a fight.

0:01:32 > 0:01:35Just having a couple of light ales and was mucking about.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37- That does not look like mucking about, Dad.- We was a bit tanked up.

0:01:37 > 0:01:42- I still don't get how...- There was a couple of sovereigns on his finger. I should've known better.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44- You want an egg? - Ain't he suffered enough?

0:01:44 > 0:01:46Tin, I'd love an egg.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49- So who did it?- Don't matter who did it.- Just let him eat.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51You haven't even said where you were when...

0:01:51 > 0:01:53I said, it doesn't matter!

0:01:53 > 0:01:56He's told you - it was just lads messing. Now let him have his breakfast.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02- I remember that - I loved that film! - Oh, let's do it again.

0:02:02 > 0:02:05- Let's sneak off in the afternoon, like we used to.- You are a very bad influence, young lady.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07She's got a restaurant to sort out, Dad.

0:02:07 > 0:02:09She doesn't need you distracting her.

0:02:09 > 0:02:10One afternoon?

0:02:10 > 0:02:13PHONE RINGS Ooh, secret lover?

0:02:15 > 0:02:16Yes?

0:02:20 > 0:02:23So, has she said any more about how long she's staying?

0:02:24 > 0:02:25No.

0:02:25 > 0:02:29- She's a friend. And... - A female friend.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32I'm not saying it's a problem, I just think...

0:02:32 > 0:02:34- people will talk.- Let them.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36- I just don't want, for your sake... - Oh, this is for my sake, is it?

0:02:36 > 0:02:40- Yes. ..for anyone to get the wrong idea.- I am not throwing her out.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56PHONE CHIMES

0:03:06 > 0:03:08SHARON: What's with the balloons?

0:03:08 > 0:03:11- Lauren's birthday.- Oh, right. Well, bring her to the opening tomorrow.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14- I'll throw in some bubbly.- She doesn't...- Nonalcoholic, of course.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20- Lauren's birthday, yeah? - Yeah. Taking her out later.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22I take it I'm not invited?

0:03:26 > 0:03:29- There you go, birthday girl.- Cheers.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35- I know she said she weren't seeing him but...- Who's that?

0:03:35 > 0:03:37Lucy and Jake. They look all cosy.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39What - he's seeing your best mate?

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Wouldn't put it past him. I don't care.

0:03:42 > 0:03:47- Just... You know, he's a mess. I don't want Lucy getting hurt. - DOOR BELL RINGS

0:03:57 > 0:03:59Happy birthday!

0:04:00 > 0:04:01Balloons!

0:04:01 > 0:04:03Yeah. Do you think they're really stupid?

0:04:03 > 0:04:05No. No, I love them. Thank you.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08I've booked a booth - EC2 Bar in Shoreditch.

0:04:08 > 0:04:11Whitney's up for it, and Peter and Lola.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14I don't know. I just... I was thinking something more low key.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17Yeah, but it's your birthday! We have to go out.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20Lucy, if Lauren's not up for it...

0:04:23 > 0:04:24Shoreditch, yeah?

0:04:24 > 0:04:27What, am I going to need a dodgy haircut or something?

0:04:27 > 0:04:30- Yeah? Yeah? - THEY CHUCKLE

0:04:53 > 0:04:55SHE SIGHS

0:05:13 > 0:05:15- DAVID: Homework? TIFFANY:- Yes.

0:05:15 > 0:05:16- Trainers?- Yes.

0:05:16 > 0:05:21- Chocolate that you're not meant to have that I didn't see you take? BOTH:- No!- Right. OK...

0:05:21 > 0:05:22You taking us to school in that?

0:05:22 > 0:05:25- Tiffany, that is rude. Now, apologise to your nan.- No, it's...

0:05:25 > 0:05:26I was just saying.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29Well, I think it looks nice. Change of image.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Look, this treatment, right?

0:05:31 > 0:05:34One of the things it does is it makes your hair fall out.

0:05:34 > 0:05:38I can either I take you to school looking like Terry,

0:05:38 > 0:05:40or I wear a scarf.

0:05:40 > 0:05:41Do you really look like Terry?

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Show us!

0:05:43 > 0:05:45No, no, it's just thinning a little bit.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47Not quite like Terry. More like...

0:05:47 > 0:05:49- More like Grandad. - Now, that IS rude.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52- Come on, let's go. - Ta-ta. Have a nice day.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54- Bye.- See ya.

0:05:56 > 0:06:00- You all right?- Yeah, I'm all right. I'm not going to lie to them.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03- I thought the cold cap was to prevent the hair coming out. - No, I stopped using it.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06- Why?- Because it was really painful.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08You know, like a big block of ice on your head.

0:06:08 > 0:06:12What? Stop looking at me like that! It's the chemo that's important.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15- This is... This is just hair. - All right.

0:06:17 > 0:06:18Ta-ta.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24Oh, hi. I was hoping Shabnam was in -

0:06:24 > 0:06:27help me with the old B&B accounts.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29- She's just...- It's just, you know what it's like, Jane.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32Trying to find somewhere quiet, you know.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35Yeah, well, er, I'm menu planning in the dining room.

0:06:35 > 0:06:36We'll use the kitchen.

0:06:36 > 0:06:42You know, Ian - he won't stop going on and on about this row the two of you had.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45It... It was, er... It was nothing.

0:06:45 > 0:06:48Well, I said to him -

0:06:48 > 0:06:51if Jane wants a big, open kitchen in the restaurant,

0:06:51 > 0:06:53you know, watching everyone cook...

0:06:53 > 0:06:56That... That wasn't what we argued about.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59No?

0:06:59 > 0:07:00No.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03I said I wanted canteen tables.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05Ian said, "Canteen tables, in a restaurant?"

0:07:06 > 0:07:10Yeah. Well, you know what Ian's like.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12Sticks to what he knows.

0:07:20 > 0:07:21Thanks.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26She used to be with my dad, didn't she?

0:07:26 > 0:07:28Well, I wouldn't exactly say "with" him.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31It's all right. Mum told me. She said - when they split up.

0:07:31 > 0:07:34What's the phrase again? Any port in a storm.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39He still likes her. You know, I mean, really likes her.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41Yeah, well...

0:07:41 > 0:07:45some men find it hard to move on from an ex.

0:07:48 > 0:07:51I want to know everything. Where she's getting her drinks from,

0:07:51 > 0:07:53food she's doing for tomorrow's opening, special events.

0:07:53 > 0:07:57I'll write it all in secret code and hide it in rocks in the park.

0:07:57 > 0:07:58That's my sausage.

0:07:58 > 0:08:02- This is Sharon, not North Korea. - You're just jealous cos you ain't part of it.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05Once we've got our pool table they won't have any customers anyway.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07Nothing wrong with having more than one line of attack.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10We can plan it this evening after we've all had catch-up night.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13If only Hitler had thought of an invasion of cocktail waiters.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16You won't all be laughing when Johnny brings down her empire.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28I was right last night, weren't I?

0:08:28 > 0:08:30- It was your dad. - I told you, my dad weren't there.

0:08:30 > 0:08:34- Drunk again, was he? Get a bit handy with his...- I was caught off guard by squats, OK?

0:08:34 > 0:08:37The door was open, the kid comes running out.

0:08:37 > 0:08:38Caught me by surprise.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41So how come your dad's got squatters?

0:08:42 > 0:08:45I seen the neighbour, Brian.

0:08:45 > 0:08:47Dad's in hospital with a broken ankle.

0:08:47 > 0:08:51- And you're just going to let some kid get away with... - What do you want me to do, L?!

0:08:51 > 0:08:53I ain't got time to be chasing after some kid.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01If there was something...

0:09:02 > 0:09:04..you'd tell me, wouldn't you?

0:09:04 > 0:09:06Yes. There's nothing to tell.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21We ain't had a proper night out in ages, have we?

0:09:21 > 0:09:23Yeah. And Peter can show us his moves!

0:09:23 > 0:09:25What're you talking about? I've got moves!

0:09:25 > 0:09:29Can you imagine that to music?

0:09:29 > 0:09:30I'll see you later...

0:09:30 > 0:09:31Snake Hips.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34- See ya.- Are you going to be all right getting a baby-sitter?

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Billy's working, ain't he?

0:09:36 > 0:09:38- Actually, I've already asked Cora. - Oh!

0:09:38 > 0:09:40- Mwah! I'll see you later. - See you later.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Making me lie to Denise!

0:09:44 > 0:09:46At least I had the decency to ring and warn you.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48How many times? There is nothing between us.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50- I never said there was! - And there isn't going to be.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52Whoa, whoa, you two are not arguing again, are you?

0:09:52 > 0:09:54Er...

0:09:54 > 0:09:56no, actually. I was just saying how Jane was right.

0:09:56 > 0:09:58Oh. I was?

0:09:58 > 0:10:01About the canteen tables and...things.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03Then again, she usually is.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06- Oh, yeah?- Well, maybe you'll learn to say it at the time.

0:10:06 > 0:10:08Leave you two to it.

0:10:19 > 0:10:20All right, Mick?

0:10:22 > 0:10:23What happened there, mate?

0:10:25 > 0:10:29- It's all right - it's none of my business.- It was my son Lee.

0:10:32 > 0:10:33You look smart.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36Yeah. Yeah, Sharon's training me up.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Is she? What, are you working there now?

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Big opening night tomorrow. You should pop down.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43Your mum's going to kill you.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45Yeah, well, I do what I want, don't I?

0:10:45 > 0:10:46Thanks.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Listen, it's Lauren's birthday.

0:10:48 > 0:10:52- There's a couple of us going out, if you want to come.- Ah, no, I can't.

0:10:52 > 0:10:56Me, mum and the others - it's catch-up night.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59We miss a lot of TV over weekends...

0:10:59 > 0:11:01What happened to "I do what I want"?

0:11:01 > 0:11:04On catch-up night? Are you joking? She'd...

0:11:04 > 0:11:06- I'll see you later.- Bye.

0:11:14 > 0:11:15What?

0:11:15 > 0:11:17Well...

0:11:17 > 0:11:18"Jane's right about everything."

0:11:18 > 0:11:21Oh, maybe he just meant, you know, the restaurant.

0:11:21 > 0:11:26She comes back here - perfect mum, perfect businesswoman.

0:11:26 > 0:11:27Perfect hair.

0:11:27 > 0:11:29You're not helping.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33Anyway, I'm going to show her - I'm all them things as well, you know.

0:11:33 > 0:11:34Are you jealous?

0:11:34 > 0:11:38- Do me a favour! I'm just sick of looking up her nostrils.- Ah.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43There's only one thing for it, then.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46Time for some WWMD.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50"What would Mum do?"

0:11:53 > 0:11:55He's supposed to be in Afghanistan.

0:11:55 > 0:11:59Well, then, he ain't going to be decking people in Canning Town, is he?

0:11:59 > 0:12:00I know. I know, it's just...

0:12:00 > 0:12:01It's mad, innit?

0:12:03 > 0:12:07- You said it was dark, didn't you? - He was the same height, same build.

0:12:09 > 0:12:11I just can't help thinking that...

0:12:12 > 0:12:15You just know, when it's your own kids, don't you?

0:12:15 > 0:12:16You just... You just know.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21It's funny - I used to see my boy Bradley everywhere.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23I called out to someone once.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Geezer turned round, didn't look nothing like him.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27Where is he, your boy?

0:12:27 > 0:12:29He died, Mick. Four years ago.

0:12:31 > 0:12:32I'm sorry.

0:12:33 > 0:12:38I know it ain't the same but I know what it's like when you've got a son and you miss 'em.

0:12:38 > 0:12:39What's Linda think?

0:12:41 > 0:12:42I ain't told her yet, have I?

0:12:44 > 0:12:46No secrets - that's always been our marriage.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48Mine was always the opposite.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52Well, I don't think I'd tell her, mate. Not till you're totally sure.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55I don't want to worry her. It's just...

0:12:55 > 0:12:57if it is him...

0:12:57 > 0:13:00and he's done a runner from the Army, then he's in trouble.

0:13:00 > 0:13:02- Something's happened. - Just bell him up.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05They won't let him have a blower. His e-mails - he ain't answering them.

0:13:05 > 0:13:07- Right, well, ask your dad.- Yeah(!)

0:13:07 > 0:13:11Seriously, Mick, if you think he's hiding your boy...

0:13:11 > 0:13:12Nah.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15Nah, you're right. Probably just seeing ghosts.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24Dad. Earlier.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27About Jane - I think I was a bit rude.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29- She's just a friend, Shabnam. - I know.

0:13:29 > 0:13:32- And even if she wasn't... - So you're saying that...

0:13:32 > 0:13:34It wouldn't be any of your business.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38I know you're just friends. I mean...

0:13:38 > 0:13:41she clearly still has feelings for Ian.

0:13:41 > 0:13:42I don't think so!

0:13:42 > 0:13:44Come on, the way she looks at him...

0:13:44 > 0:13:47It really isn't any of your business.

0:13:47 > 0:13:48They're sat in our house together.

0:13:48 > 0:13:50- Working.- I know but...

0:13:50 > 0:13:52They've got a business together. They've got a kid.

0:13:52 > 0:13:55Exactly, exactly! It's not easy to move on from that.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58You know how important those things are to Ian.

0:13:59 > 0:14:02- She divorced him. - So? Doesn't mean people just...

0:14:02 > 0:14:05Jane stopped having feelings for Ian a long time ago.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09Though Ian, on the other hand...

0:14:18 > 0:14:21Income and expenditure.

0:14:21 > 0:14:23I ain't done a spreadsheet in, like...

0:14:23 > 0:14:24Well, since school.

0:14:25 > 0:14:28PHONE CHIMES

0:14:28 > 0:14:30- Anyone nice? - Er...it's just about tonight.

0:14:35 > 0:14:39- Yeah, it is good but we're still going to need an accountant at the end of the year.- Yeah.

0:14:40 > 0:14:44PHONE CHIMES SHE CLEARS THROAT

0:14:45 > 0:14:49What we were thinking was burgers, salads, that sort of thing - keep it simple.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51- Burgers, salads - got it. - DOOR BELL RINGS

0:14:51 > 0:14:56Yeah, well, it was more Jane's idea anyway.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58- Jake, I'm talking to you! - Yeah, and I'm listening.

0:14:58 > 0:15:02- Who's so important you've got to spend all your time on the phone? - Ian, he can have a life!

0:15:02 > 0:15:03Not when he works for me, he can't.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05HE CHUCKLES Denise!

0:15:07 > 0:15:08I'll make a brew.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12I was just thinking that we never did anything,

0:15:12 > 0:15:15you know, to welcome you back to the Square.

0:15:15 > 0:15:16You don't have to do that.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19So I thought I'd cook something this evening.

0:15:19 > 0:15:24- For Jane?- Yes, well, it wouldn't be a welcome-back if she weren't there.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27Well, that's great. Yeah, thanks.

0:15:27 > 0:15:29- Good.- Shall I bring anything?

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Just Masood - you know, make up the numbers -

0:15:31 > 0:15:33and something to pick up Ian's jaw from off the floor.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37THEY CHUCKLE

0:15:59 > 0:16:01HE MUTTERS

0:16:04 > 0:16:06I can't believe you've got all these spirits!

0:16:06 > 0:16:08- Where do you get your stuff from? - Johnny....

0:16:08 > 0:16:12This is Steffi and Curtis. Our new bar staff.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17- Cooking for those three? - Curry goat!

0:16:17 > 0:16:21They run restaurants. Catering business, food stalls.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24You work in a shop and sell a couple of sandwiches.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26You got a problem with my sandwiches?

0:16:26 > 0:16:27Denise has gone all MasterChef!

0:16:27 > 0:16:30Where are you going to get a goat in Walford?

0:16:30 > 0:16:32I'm not cooking goat! Will you all stop going on about goat?

0:16:32 > 0:16:34I never said "goat".

0:16:34 > 0:16:37- I love curry goat! - I'm not doing goat!

0:16:37 > 0:16:39Ian's going to be all over it. In and out of that kitchen.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Yes, and that is why I'm...

0:16:41 > 0:16:43Doing it at Patrick's.

0:16:43 > 0:16:46What, you, on your own, cooking a poncey meal?

0:16:46 > 0:16:49No. No, not on her own. I'm helping.

0:16:50 > 0:16:53- It was Denise's idea. - With, er, her and Ian?

0:16:53 > 0:16:56Well, yeah, Ian would be there too.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58Hmm. Better put the iron on.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02Masood...

0:17:02 > 0:17:05you don't think it's...weird?

0:17:05 > 0:17:07My ex and his new fiancee?

0:17:07 > 0:17:09Hmm.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12Well, it's not like we're throwing our car keys on the table.

0:17:19 > 0:17:23Lovely to see a woman with a proper set of curves.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25All these girls, skinny as a rake.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28Are those yours darling, or silicone?

0:17:28 > 0:17:30Thought you was at death's door.

0:17:30 > 0:17:34I do apologise - 76 years of age and he's still not house trained.

0:17:36 > 0:17:37Been in the wars, have you?

0:17:40 > 0:17:42DANCE MUSIC PLAYS

0:17:45 > 0:17:47He's gorgeous, ain't he?

0:17:47 > 0:17:50- I was just...- A man who can do so many things with his hands at once?

0:17:50 > 0:17:53- Well...- I was just wondering how he fit into them jeans.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56How he does - or you could?

0:17:57 > 0:17:58Well, it's the big day tomorrow.

0:17:58 > 0:18:01So try to give the punters some attention, too.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03But in the meantime...

0:18:07 > 0:18:10- We was always patching up your face. - "We"?

0:18:10 > 0:18:11You were never there.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16They won't let me go home on my own.

0:18:17 > 0:18:19You seen Lee?

0:18:19 > 0:18:20Why would I have seen Lee?

0:18:20 > 0:18:22Just wondered if he'd paid you a visit.

0:18:22 > 0:18:26None of the rest of you have paid me a visit.

0:18:26 > 0:18:29Don't know why he'd fly in from Afghanistan just cos I've had a fall.

0:18:29 > 0:18:33- I just thought that... - Half the boys out there are lucky to come home with legs.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36Me taking a tumble don't really count for a royal visit.

0:18:37 > 0:18:38So you ain't seen him, then?

0:18:38 > 0:18:41No, I ain't seen him. Ain't seen him for years.

0:18:41 > 0:18:45Ain't seen any of you till you came sniffing round for money.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47Tina's the only one who remembers who her father is.

0:18:47 > 0:18:50That's cos she's spent most her life off her nut.

0:18:50 > 0:18:52She doesn't really remember who you are.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56Thanks for the grapes.

0:18:56 > 0:18:57Really appreciate them.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02Why all this talk about Lee?

0:19:02 > 0:19:04Why you asking about him?

0:19:04 > 0:19:06- I just wondered if... - No, you didn't.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10I went to see you at your flat.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12- When?- Yesterday.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14And someone gave me a dig.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17And I thought, er...

0:19:17 > 0:19:18it was Lee.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23I didn't see who it was cos they run off.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27Must have been one of them ASBOs from the estate.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30- They'd mug you for a cough drop. - Nah. It didn't feel like it.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33Moment they see an ambulance, they're in there like a shot.

0:19:33 > 0:19:34Kick the door in, did they?

0:19:34 > 0:19:35No, everything was fine.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39Maybe I didn't shut it properly.

0:19:39 > 0:19:43Lucky you got there before they could do the place in.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46There was just... There was something about him. I don't know.

0:19:49 > 0:19:53And you think your boy would do that? Hit his own father?

0:19:57 > 0:20:00Before you know it, he'll be all grown up

0:20:00 > 0:20:03and refusing to let his old dad come home with him to convalesce.

0:20:08 > 0:20:09Nice try.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23- LUCY:- Sure you don't want a coffee?

0:20:23 > 0:20:26No, I'm all right. Shall I, er...

0:20:26 > 0:20:29- Shall I get these business cards ordered?- Oh, yeah.

0:20:42 > 0:20:43What are you doing?

0:20:48 > 0:20:50All right? Little gift.

0:20:53 > 0:20:54It's silk.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58Well, I thought, if you're going to wear a scarf, you know,

0:20:58 > 0:21:00may as well have...

0:21:02 > 0:21:04I'm really sorry, Carol.

0:21:05 > 0:21:07Going to take more than a scarf.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11- I'll leave it on there. - No, don't. Haven't wiped that yet.

0:21:13 > 0:21:14Thank you.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16It's lovely.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25"Might not drink tonight. Peter."

0:21:25 > 0:21:27Oh, "Lauren won't mind. Whitney."

0:21:30 > 0:21:32OK. I'm sorry.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35I thought you were texting Jake, didn't I?

0:21:35 > 0:21:36I told you nothing was going on.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38I know, but...

0:21:38 > 0:21:39But what? You don't trust me?

0:21:39 > 0:21:42Yes! Yes, obviously I trust you, Lucy.

0:21:42 > 0:21:45- Because if we're working together, Lauren...- Yes. I dunno.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48I dunno, I saw you with him earlier, didn't I?

0:21:48 > 0:21:50- And I saw you with him last week... - It is all in your head.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56You going to shoot me?

0:21:58 > 0:22:00No. Course not. It's your birthday.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06Well, I will have that coffee, then.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08It is my birthday.

0:22:10 > 0:22:11I'll take this.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31Hey. Don't call me again today.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33No, Lauren just searched through my phone.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37It's fine - I delete all of your texts.

0:22:49 > 0:22:52Curtis can do this thing where he picks up three bottles at once and I can't...

0:22:52 > 0:22:54Whoa. You got a crush?

0:22:54 > 0:22:55No, I'm just saying.

0:22:55 > 0:22:58Oh, my God, he's got a crush!

0:22:58 > 0:23:00- Who's got a crush? - Johnny's got a crush.- Nance!

0:23:00 > 0:23:02Sharon's new barman. Curtis.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05- You're there to gather information. - That's one way of looking at it!

0:23:05 > 0:23:09- You're there for me. Nothing else. - And if it was a girl? - That's got nothing to do with it.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11- Come on, give the boy a break. - Shirley, customer.

0:23:12 > 0:23:15- You can tell me all Sharon's secrets later.- I'm going out.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17- It's catch-up night! - I ain't going to be there.

0:23:19 > 0:23:20- Where is he?- Who, Mick?

0:23:20 > 0:23:22Someone mention my name?

0:23:22 > 0:23:24I've just had Dad on the phone.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26You ever going to tell us he was in hospital?

0:23:29 > 0:23:32- DENISE:- It's sticking. - SHABNAM:- It's not sticking!

0:23:32 > 0:23:36- How you've managed to make it stick when you've put so much oil in... - The spices need to cook out!

0:23:36 > 0:23:39- But you're not cooking them onions properly.- Denise?

0:23:39 > 0:23:40This is how I always cook onions.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43That's not how I've said to cook 'em, is it?

0:23:43 > 0:23:47- You're meant to be making my life easier so Jane's impressed with... - Would somebody tell me what...

0:23:47 > 0:23:51- She's her mother's daughter, all right. Don't listen to a word. - What are you doing in my kitchen?

0:23:53 > 0:23:55- Curry chicken. - We couldn't get goat so...

0:23:55 > 0:23:58I mean, while I'm out playing cards I want to know...

0:23:58 > 0:24:03I - sorry, we - wanted somewhere Ian weren't going to get all involved.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06I'm cooking for Masood and Ian... and Jane.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12Well, I hope they like washing up.

0:24:17 > 0:24:18Stir it!

0:24:18 > 0:24:20- He can have my room. - It's not just your room.- Tina!

0:24:20 > 0:24:23- I'll sleep on the floor.- I'm not having that man in this house.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25He can go on the sofa, or we put a bed in the lounge.

0:24:25 > 0:24:29- I don't want him in my lounge. - He's not coming here!- You can't leave him in hospital.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31- Thank you, Nancy. - If your dad says no, he means no.

0:24:31 > 0:24:33He said he got a neighbour to call you yesterday.

0:24:33 > 0:24:37- Mick went round his gaff and came back with a black eye.- Oh, L. - Is that when you got beaten up?

0:24:37 > 0:24:39I didn't get beaten up.

0:24:39 > 0:24:40So did you see who did it?

0:24:40 > 0:24:42Yeah, just... It was just kids from the estate.

0:24:42 > 0:24:46Dad weren't there, though, was he? Cos he was in hospital, where he's been all week.

0:24:46 > 0:24:49Funny how he didn't tell us before he knew he couldn't come home.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52- He's old and he's had a fall. - You've been outvoted. - And he ain't got no-one else.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54He is not staying here!

0:25:06 > 0:25:09TANNOY: 'The westbound District line is currently suspended...'

0:25:09 > 0:25:10Thought I missed you.

0:25:10 > 0:25:13- I'm not getting a bus. - It ain't that far!

0:25:13 > 0:25:16- We could go to the Vic. - No, I ain't going back to the Vic.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19Oh, brilliant. Cab?

0:25:19 > 0:25:22Actually, I've got keys to the Albert.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24Fancy a private party?

0:25:25 > 0:25:27- You serious?- Yes, let's go!- Yes.

0:25:34 > 0:25:35Oi!

0:25:35 > 0:25:37What did he do?

0:25:37 > 0:25:39Grandad.

0:25:40 > 0:25:43Like, when you and Dad was little - did he, like...?

0:25:45 > 0:25:47Do you think he'd still be alive if he did?

0:25:47 > 0:25:51Yeah, but I just don't get why you and Dad hate him so much.

0:25:51 > 0:25:55Darling, there are hundreds of reasons why I hate him -

0:25:55 > 0:25:56but that's not one of them.

0:26:04 > 0:26:05This looks amazing.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08I mean, you did all this for Jane? On your own?

0:26:08 > 0:26:10Yeah.

0:26:10 > 0:26:12Well...you know, Shabnam -

0:26:12 > 0:26:15she come and she just give me a little bit of a hand.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17PATRICK CLEARS THROAT

0:26:17 > 0:26:20Sorry, me dear, I'm not staying.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22Yeah. Yeah, I know. This is for me.

0:26:26 > 0:26:28Oh, sorry - I just assumed.

0:26:28 > 0:26:30I mean, it's not a double date, is it?

0:26:30 > 0:26:32- You two, Jane and my dad? - BOTH: No!

0:26:32 > 0:26:34I mean, I can go if you want.

0:26:35 > 0:26:36No. No, you stay.

0:26:36 > 0:26:39You know, it's like - the more the merrier.

0:26:50 > 0:26:52PHONE CHIMES

0:27:26 > 0:27:28So what happened, Mick?

0:27:28 > 0:27:30At Dad's, when you went round there?

0:27:30 > 0:27:33Like I said. Just a kid.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35A kid rattled you?

0:27:37 > 0:27:40I know you, Mick. There's something you're not telling me.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44It just shook me up a bit.

0:27:44 > 0:27:46You know, being back there.

0:27:46 > 0:27:49You let him in, there's going to be nothing but trouble.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52And I promise you I will not let that man

0:27:52 > 0:27:55anywhere near this family again.

0:27:57 > 0:27:59- STAN:- Easy, easy.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05Dad's coming to stay.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23Let's go.

0:28:24 > 0:28:26Oh, no, back, back, back!

0:28:39 > 0:28:40No hug for your old man?

0:28:42 > 0:28:45He's not a dad, Teen. He's money out of the tills.

0:28:45 > 0:28:49He's us losing punters. He's Linda going to stay back at her mother's.

0:28:49 > 0:28:50If it wasn't for him we wouldn't exist!

0:28:50 > 0:28:52The only reason he had kids is

0:28:52 > 0:28:54so he'd have someone to send round the shop for his fags!

0:28:54 > 0:28:56- I could knock you out. - He's an invalid.

0:28:56 > 0:29:00Roles reversed, OK? He would not take you in, Tina.

0:29:00 > 0:29:03Look at us! He's been here two minutes and we're fighting.

0:29:03 > 0:29:06Actually, he's OUR dad, so it ain't really any of your business.

0:29:06 > 0:29:07It's my home you've invited him in to!

0:29:07 > 0:29:11He's as nice as pie to your face but behind your back...

0:29:12 > 0:29:15What? Go on.

0:29:16 > 0:29:20Says you're not really into girls, you just need taming.

0:29:20 > 0:29:21A strong hand.

0:29:23 > 0:29:25What did you say he used to call her?

0:29:26 > 0:29:28A dog without a lead.

0:29:34 > 0:29:35Harsh.

0:29:37 > 0:29:40Did the trick, though. I'm calling him a cab.

0:29:44 > 0:29:46It's a term of endearment, love!

0:29:46 > 0:29:48You know me, I'm a gags man.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54Just remember, she's the only one fighting your corner.

0:29:55 > 0:30:00You couldn't ask Linda to fetch me a cuppa...?

0:30:00 > 0:30:02All set? DOORBELL RINGS

0:30:02 > 0:30:04What you after, Ian, a guard of honour?

0:30:09 > 0:30:10Hello!

0:30:10 > 0:30:11Hi.

0:30:11 > 0:30:13Come on in!

0:30:13 > 0:30:16- Masood...- Hi. How you doing?

0:30:17 > 0:30:20- Jane.- That's a bit formal.

0:30:20 > 0:30:23Denise! How lovely of you to have us over.

0:30:23 > 0:30:25- It's my pleasure. - Shabnam. What are you doing here?

0:30:25 > 0:30:28- Just helping.- Ian. Why don't you show everyone through.

0:30:28 > 0:30:31- Starters are nearly done. - Yeah. This way...

0:30:42 > 0:30:44I shouldn't have told you that.

0:30:44 > 0:30:45He can call me what he wants.

0:30:45 > 0:30:49Yeah? Well, how come you're sitting out here?

0:30:49 > 0:30:53Cos you always side with Shirley. He's my dad as well.

0:30:54 > 0:30:57He's just scared, you know?

0:30:57 > 0:30:59Cos if we all get on, then what?

0:30:59 > 0:31:01Then we talk about mum, don't we?

0:31:01 > 0:31:04We talk about when we were kids and he don't like that.

0:31:04 > 0:31:05So he acts up.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08Hello, love. You got a boyfriend?

0:31:10 > 0:31:13- You want another one? - HE LAUGHS

0:31:13 > 0:31:16Oi, can you not interfere with the punters, please!

0:31:18 > 0:31:21Take me home, Teen. I'm not begging.

0:31:22 > 0:31:25HE COUGHS

0:31:25 > 0:31:29If you want him gone, you have to take him back yourself.

0:31:29 > 0:31:32I ain't kicking him out cos he's too scared to be decent.

0:31:34 > 0:31:36They've been out there for ages.

0:31:36 > 0:31:41They're working on him. He's a soft touch, your dad.

0:31:41 > 0:31:43No, not with this. He knows...

0:31:46 > 0:31:47Cancel the cab.

0:31:48 > 0:31:49It's not for long.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52The doctor said he only needs looking after for three weeks.

0:31:52 > 0:31:57Linda. I'll keep to myself. Help out where I can.

0:31:58 > 0:32:01Lying there with my broken ankle, it was your faces I saw...

0:32:04 > 0:32:07I know I don't deserve it. But thank you.

0:32:07 > 0:32:10- You're not going to fall for that, are you?- It's decided.

0:32:10 > 0:32:11Three weeks.

0:32:15 > 0:32:18He is going to poison every part of this family.

0:32:18 > 0:32:21By the end of the week we're going to be at war, Mick!

0:32:21 > 0:32:22It'll be fine.

0:32:22 > 0:32:23Please, Mick, don't.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26Careful... Are we going to carry him up?

0:32:28 > 0:32:30You look after the pub. I'll speak to Mick.

0:32:30 > 0:32:33You two are hilarious. He's tiny.

0:32:33 > 0:32:36If he kicks off, I'll, like, sit on him or something.

0:32:36 > 0:32:38The way Dad was going on,

0:32:38 > 0:32:43- I was expecting, like, Robocop - not Friar Tuck in a wheelchair. - Don't be taken in by that.

0:32:43 > 0:32:47When he used to drink he couldn't even tell us apart.

0:32:47 > 0:32:51No matter what we did he just cut into us...tearing us...

0:32:51 > 0:32:53until, one day, we just...

0:32:55 > 0:32:56..stopped talking.

0:32:58 > 0:33:00And there was silence at the table.

0:33:02 > 0:33:04It's going to happen here, you watch.

0:33:06 > 0:33:09And the worst thing was we started turning on each other.

0:33:09 > 0:33:12Because that's his trick. He makes you hate yourself.

0:33:15 > 0:33:18We'll make it just like home up here, Dad. You'll love it.

0:33:20 > 0:33:22Colourful place you got. Are those...?

0:33:22 > 0:33:24- Yeah, yeah, they're parakeets, yeah. - Parakeets.

0:33:24 > 0:33:26There you go.

0:33:26 > 0:33:28- I got you.- All right?

0:33:34 > 0:33:37By the look of you, we won't be doing that again in a hurry.

0:33:37 > 0:33:39- Three weeks. - Yeah. If he's better.

0:33:39 > 0:33:40He'll be better.

0:33:41 > 0:33:44Dad, Lady Di. Lady Di, Dad.

0:33:46 > 0:33:48Best looking woman in the house!

0:33:48 > 0:33:49- After me.- Yeah, after you.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51DOG WHIMPERS

0:33:56 > 0:33:58This is so good.

0:33:58 > 0:34:04Yeah? It's just an old, you know, family recipe.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07Should be hearing about the market closure by Easter.

0:34:08 > 0:34:11Not holding my breath, though.

0:34:11 > 0:34:12Mint sauce, Jane?

0:34:12 > 0:34:14- IAN AND JANE TOGETHER: Oh, no, she don't...- Oh, no, I don't...

0:34:14 > 0:34:16- She's minty enough. - I'm minty enough.

0:34:16 > 0:34:17What are you two like?

0:34:18 > 0:34:20What's that? What does that even mean?

0:34:20 > 0:34:24- "Minty enough?"- It's, you know, like a play on words...you know...

0:34:24 > 0:34:28- "sweet enough".- Like, with sugar.

0:34:28 > 0:34:29- In tea.- Tea...

0:34:29 > 0:34:32SHE LAUGHS

0:34:39 > 0:34:41How's the restaurant coming along?

0:34:41 > 0:34:45Oh, I think we've finally decided on the Beales' logo at last!

0:34:45 > 0:34:49- When can we see it? - Well, we're not going to unveil it yet. It's top-secret.

0:34:51 > 0:34:54Ooh. Ooh.

0:34:54 > 0:34:58We're all hanging on the edges of our seats here.

0:35:02 > 0:35:03SHE SIGHS

0:35:03 > 0:35:06Do you know what, I think I'm going to get a little top-up.

0:35:12 > 0:35:15- This really is delicious. - Thanks.

0:35:15 > 0:35:18I mean, on behalf of Denise.

0:35:24 > 0:35:25Hiya.

0:35:27 > 0:35:29What's going on in here?

0:35:31 > 0:35:32A-ha...

0:35:34 > 0:35:38Do you remember? I always used to call you my Jessica Lange.

0:35:38 > 0:35:41Only hoping that I'd call you my King Kong.

0:35:41 > 0:35:45- Do you fancy it? - We never did get to the end of it. - Too busy snogging, that's why.

0:35:46 > 0:35:50- Where are the kids?- Sent them out for something to eat with Bianca.

0:35:51 > 0:35:52Come on, sit down.

0:35:52 > 0:35:56No, I'm going to go and see Max. He's got his genetic testing tomorrow.

0:35:56 > 0:35:58Oh, Carol. Come on, that's nothing, is it?

0:35:58 > 0:36:00It's only taking a bit of blood. He'll be all right.

0:36:00 > 0:36:03Come on, sit down. I got popcorn. Nice bottle of wine.

0:36:03 > 0:36:05We can have a nice romantic night in.

0:36:05 > 0:36:07I think we're a long way from being romantic, David.

0:36:12 > 0:36:14SIREN BLARES

0:36:16 > 0:36:18I thought Sharon was going to bed down here for the night.

0:36:18 > 0:36:22Oh, wow, I can see the hipsters working their 'taches in here.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25- Hipsters? It's a bit small, innit? - But it's all ours.

0:36:25 > 0:36:28Listen up! Ground rules! Oi!

0:36:28 > 0:36:30Sharon's got this place just right for tomorrow

0:36:30 > 0:36:35- so we put back what we drink and we leave the place exactly... - SHE GROANS

0:36:35 > 0:36:36..exactly as we found it. Agreed?

0:36:36 > 0:36:38THEY ALL EXPRESS AGREEMENT

0:36:38 > 0:36:41Good! Cos Phil Mitchell finds out about this, I am a dead man.

0:36:44 > 0:36:46You and that phone!

0:36:46 > 0:36:48Just work. Trying to get us rich.

0:36:48 > 0:36:51- LOUD MUSIC STARTS - Lola, what have I just said? Can you turn it down?

0:36:57 > 0:36:59Sharon?

0:36:59 > 0:37:03- I can't get through to this delivery company.- Thought they was coming in the morning?

0:37:03 > 0:37:07Yeah, well, I need to double check. Not much of a cocktail bar without any mixers, is it?

0:37:07 > 0:37:09Sharon, they'll come! You know what you're doing.

0:37:09 > 0:37:11You've been in the game years, ain't you?

0:37:11 > 0:37:13There might be a few glitches along the way

0:37:13 > 0:37:15but anything goes wrong, you'll deal with it, easy, won't you?

0:37:15 > 0:37:17You trying to get back in my good books?

0:37:17 > 0:37:19Why? Am I not there already?

0:37:19 > 0:37:24Not quite. So how do you fancy christening The Albert?

0:37:24 > 0:37:27Before the punters get their grubby hands on it tomorrow...

0:37:30 > 0:37:32- Come on, come through. - OK. Thank you.

0:37:32 > 0:37:36- You don't mind, do you? I'm just finishing my dinner.- You don't do that every night, do you?

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

0:37:39 > 0:37:42Oh, you're worse than Liam. Put that phone away.

0:37:42 > 0:37:44Oh, it's Lauren. She's out for her birthday.

0:37:44 > 0:37:46Just waiting for that call from A&E.

0:37:47 > 0:37:50She'll be all right. She's been around alcohol before.

0:37:50 > 0:37:52- I'll stick the kettle on. - All right.

0:37:56 > 0:37:58Apparently, it's all about the snappy hand movements.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01So you look like you're doing something impressive...

0:38:01 > 0:38:02Don't... Don't do that.

0:38:03 > 0:38:08- Have you actually studied mixology or is this just guesswork? - Peter, shut up, he's really good!

0:38:08 > 0:38:09MUSIC TURNED UP

0:38:09 > 0:38:12Can you turn that music down?

0:38:12 > 0:38:13Don't do this and don't do that.

0:38:13 > 0:38:16- Can we actually go somewhere we can have some fun?- This is fun.

0:38:17 > 0:38:19There you go. Use a beer mat...

0:38:21 > 0:38:23Ah, the good old mocktail.

0:38:23 > 0:38:26What happens if have too much vitamin C, guys?

0:38:26 > 0:38:28Nothing, babe - not buzz-wise, anyway.

0:38:28 > 0:38:30Happy days.

0:38:30 > 0:38:33Look, I can't drink that. Have you got any cider?

0:38:49 > 0:38:51So what's it like working together again?

0:38:51 > 0:38:53- Just like the good old days? - Yeah.

0:38:55 > 0:38:58Yeah. It's not exactly like them.

0:38:58 > 0:38:59No, not exactly, but...

0:38:59 > 0:39:02We know how to work in tandem, don't we?

0:39:02 > 0:39:06What he means by that is I ignore his moods and get on with it.

0:39:06 > 0:39:10All right, I admit it. I can be a difficult partner.

0:39:10 > 0:39:11But I aim high.

0:39:11 > 0:39:12Partner now.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15He says boss when you're not around.

0:39:15 > 0:39:17Oh, old habits...

0:39:17 > 0:39:19So, come on, you must have loads of old stories

0:39:19 > 0:39:21working together over the years.

0:39:21 > 0:39:24Really? Really, stories about a cafe?

0:39:24 > 0:39:26Things have gone down in that cafe, believe me.

0:39:26 > 0:39:30Yeah, and some things are best kept secret.

0:39:30 > 0:39:31Yeah.

0:39:31 > 0:39:34You know, you don't want to bore our guests to tears, do you?

0:39:37 > 0:39:38Denise, is everything OK?

0:39:38 > 0:39:41Can anyone smell burning?

0:39:41 > 0:39:42The chicken!

0:39:48 > 0:39:50VOICES ON TV

0:39:50 > 0:39:51Here you go.

0:39:58 > 0:40:00Urgh!

0:40:00 > 0:40:03That's disgusting. You never could make a cup of tea.

0:40:03 > 0:40:06Your way takes ages. Faffing about with all that milk.

0:40:06 > 0:40:08No, you don't put the milk in first, Carol,

0:40:08 > 0:40:10cos the tea bag don't infuse, does it?

0:40:10 > 0:40:12How you feeling about tomorrow?

0:40:13 > 0:40:15It'll be all right. Only a scratch.

0:40:15 > 0:40:18Well, makes you think, doesn't it, about the kids? It did with me.

0:40:18 > 0:40:20Honestly, that tea bag.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23Packaged in India and then flown 4,000 miles to be mullered by you.

0:40:23 > 0:40:24Do you want me to come with you?

0:40:26 > 0:40:28What, you not had enough of hospitals lately?

0:40:28 > 0:40:31You know, a little while back, Tanya would have gone with you.

0:40:31 > 0:40:33- Or even Kirsty... - What's that supposed to mean?

0:40:33 > 0:40:36It's just bad timing. You not having anybody.

0:40:36 > 0:40:39I got the girls! Well, I ain't got them tonight.

0:40:39 > 0:40:42- Not tomorrow either?- Why are you worrying about tomorrow for?

0:40:42 > 0:40:45Everything's fine, Carol. The girls are happy. Business is good.

0:40:45 > 0:40:48And you - you're supposed to be living in the present.

0:40:48 > 0:40:52- Yeah, well, I'd be at home with David watching King Kong. - You should be there.

0:40:52 > 0:40:56Instead of round here, trying to get me worked up about tomorrow.

0:40:56 > 0:40:58Honestly, just live in the present.

0:40:58 > 0:40:59Yeah, where I've got cancer?

0:40:59 > 0:41:02No. Where you've got a fighting chance.

0:41:03 > 0:41:05Unlike that cup of tea.

0:41:06 > 0:41:07I'll make a fresh one.

0:41:17 > 0:41:19Maybe we should go in there and help.

0:41:19 > 0:41:21No. Denise told me I couldn't interfere.

0:41:24 > 0:41:26No reason why you couldn't though.

0:41:28 > 0:41:30More wine?

0:41:30 > 0:41:32- Oh, no, I don't think...- Come on.

0:41:37 > 0:41:39It's ruined. The whole thing.

0:41:39 > 0:41:41I thought you were meant to be helping me.

0:41:41 > 0:41:44Not helping Ian and Jane just reminisce all night!

0:41:44 > 0:41:45I cooked everything for you!

0:41:45 > 0:41:47Yes, and now it's burnt to a crisp, innit?

0:41:49 > 0:41:51Is there a problem here?

0:41:51 > 0:41:53Actually, we could use your help. Chicken's...

0:41:55 > 0:41:58Right, well, look, you've made this delicious curry sauce.

0:41:58 > 0:41:59We could go vegetarian?

0:41:59 > 0:42:02No. No, because there's not enough veg, is there?

0:42:02 > 0:42:04- Of course there is... You've got a courgette...- Yes.

0:42:04 > 0:42:07- And look at that, you've got two onions.- That's a real feast, that(!)

0:42:07 > 0:42:08We don't need much.

0:42:08 > 0:42:11Look, it's my dinner and if I say there isn't enough...

0:42:17 > 0:42:19I think Masood's making things worse!

0:42:20 > 0:42:23Ian, Denise seems really on edge.

0:42:23 > 0:42:26All I know is this wouldn't have happened with you.

0:42:28 > 0:42:30It was fun, weren't it?

0:42:30 > 0:42:32Talking about the old days in the cafe.

0:42:36 > 0:42:37Yeah. Happy memories.

0:42:43 > 0:42:46Tell me you haven't been thinking about that kiss.

0:42:54 > 0:42:57Denise has just popped out for a takeaway.

0:42:57 > 0:42:58You are joking?

0:43:07 > 0:43:09Peter, I'm going to grab something to eat.

0:43:09 > 0:43:12Take that out, would you? And use the chippy's, yeah?

0:43:14 > 0:43:15Thanks.

0:43:18 > 0:43:20- Try to relax, babe. - This was a big mistake.

0:43:20 > 0:43:22Yeah, but look, everyone's having a right laugh.

0:43:22 > 0:43:25Yeah, but it's me that loses his life. This is like Sharon's baby.

0:43:25 > 0:43:28- Which means it's Phil's baby, more or less. And if they knew... - MUSIC TURNED UP

0:43:28 > 0:43:30Peter, can you TURN IT DOWN?!

0:43:30 > 0:43:32No!

0:43:35 > 0:43:37- Where's Lauren? - I'll clean it up. Don't worry.

0:43:37 > 0:43:40Do you know how many times Sharon's counted these glasses?

0:43:41 > 0:43:43- Where's Lola? - I don't know, Peter.

0:43:51 > 0:43:53Hey, what you doing down here on your own?

0:43:56 > 0:43:57What is that?

0:44:02 > 0:44:04I dunno. I just wanted to join in.

0:44:07 > 0:44:10Lauren, have you seen how strong they're making these?

0:44:14 > 0:44:17Look. Honestly.

0:44:17 > 0:44:20In an hour or so, everyone is going to be throwing up

0:44:20 > 0:44:23and making a fool of themselves, and then you're just going to say,

0:44:23 > 0:44:25"Thank God that's not me - they look stupid."

0:44:31 > 0:44:33Yeah. You're always looking out for me, ain't ya?

0:44:36 > 0:44:37OK, yeah.

0:44:39 > 0:44:42Let's just go back upstairs, yeah?

0:44:42 > 0:44:45MOBILE PHONE RINGS

0:44:51 > 0:44:53You get more and more stunning.

0:44:53 > 0:44:56- Your cataracts are just getting worse. - HE LAUGHS HEARTILY

0:44:57 > 0:45:00I'm doing this for Tina, OK? It's important to her.

0:45:00 > 0:45:03- Right, Dad, here's your feather. - Yeah?

0:45:03 > 0:45:05Tina's going to bring in your blankets.

0:45:07 > 0:45:11Shirley ain't exactly making the customers feel welcome down there.

0:45:11 > 0:45:12You need anything else?

0:45:12 > 0:45:15You all right getting to the khazi of a night and all that, yeah?

0:45:15 > 0:45:20Quite all right, thank you. Nancy. Come over here.

0:45:20 > 0:45:22Let's have a look at you.

0:45:23 > 0:45:26Yeah. Haven't you turned into a beauty?

0:45:27 > 0:45:29Dunno 'bout that, Stan.

0:45:29 > 0:45:30Call me Grandad.

0:45:30 > 0:45:34I look like a useless old so-and-so, you might as well call me one.

0:45:34 > 0:45:35Whatever, Grandad.

0:45:35 > 0:45:38What's the time? Boxing's on in a minute!

0:45:38 > 0:45:40- Who's fighting? - Take an interest, do you?

0:45:40 > 0:45:42Watching men knock each other out? 'Course.

0:45:42 > 0:45:46- You one of her lot? - No, she ain't, Dad. Don't panic.

0:45:46 > 0:45:48She just knows her enemy.

0:45:49 > 0:45:54Well, come on, sit yourselves down and we'll do a bit of man-hating together.

0:45:54 > 0:45:56Can't stand either of these two fighters.

0:45:56 > 0:45:58Right pair of chauvinists, they are!

0:45:59 > 0:46:02HE LAUGHS

0:46:07 > 0:46:09Can't believe you made me stop off for a meat pie.

0:46:09 > 0:46:11I've been at work all day, I'm starving!

0:46:11 > 0:46:14- I was trying to be spontaneous. - This is spontaneous.

0:46:14 > 0:46:17Didn't know I was going to come in till I walked past.

0:46:17 > 0:46:20There's nothing wrong with the head on that. You don't like it, there's plenty other pubs.

0:46:27 > 0:46:30- It's quiet tonight. - Bet it ain't up there.

0:46:30 > 0:46:34We're about to have dinner. Mick wanted you to join us, actually.

0:46:52 > 0:46:53Chinese?

0:46:53 > 0:46:56Yes, what else am I supposed to do? I've got to give them something.

0:46:56 > 0:46:58Don't tell me. Another old family recipe(?)

0:47:03 > 0:47:06- All right, sweetheart. - Nice hat, Pops.

0:47:06 > 0:47:07- All right?- Give us a chip.

0:47:07 > 0:47:10- Oi! You want a chip, you have to earn your keep.- I said I want a chip.- No.

0:47:19 > 0:47:20Come on, wind it in.

0:47:21 > 0:47:22Busted.

0:47:22 > 0:47:25So what is it now? Lauren, Lola, me...

0:47:25 > 0:47:28Is there anyone, apart from your sister, that you ain't been out with?

0:47:28 > 0:47:29- You two went out?- Yeah.

0:47:29 > 0:47:32Oh, yeah, yeah. We "went out" didn't we? For about ten minutes!

0:47:32 > 0:47:34She's been out with everyone, though.

0:47:34 > 0:47:36She'll be trying to turn you next.

0:47:38 > 0:47:40It was a joke!

0:47:40 > 0:47:41'Scuse me.

0:47:41 > 0:47:43Whit, it was a joke!

0:47:43 > 0:47:45Delicately handled.

0:47:51 > 0:47:54Help me with this and you can have a chip.

0:47:56 > 0:47:58Oh, no.

0:48:01 > 0:48:05Peter, he just... He didn't mean to upset you.

0:48:05 > 0:48:07It's all right. No-one ever does.

0:48:55 > 0:48:57And whose fault was the lack of stability?

0:49:00 > 0:49:03You got to stop blaming your mother some day.

0:49:03 > 0:49:04Was hard in those days.

0:49:04 > 0:49:06Without Sylvie.

0:49:06 > 0:49:09Shirley did her best, didn't you, Shirl? But she was young.

0:49:09 > 0:49:12She was great! She always had our dinner on the table.

0:49:12 > 0:49:13She always had us ready for school.

1:06:27 > 1:06:30Wanted you to feel part of the family.

1:06:31 > 1:06:34No, he wanted other people to think I grew up here.

1:06:41 > 1:06:47I remember my foster parents had a purple kitchen.

1:06:50 > 1:06:52I mean, how could you forget that?

1:06:54 > 1:06:58And I had like, um... I had like this little toy car.

1:06:58 > 1:07:03It was like a little Cortina. And my foster mum... What was her name?

1:07:03 > 1:07:06- Jill.- Jill.

1:07:06 > 1:07:08You really loved her.

1:07:09 > 1:07:14Used to scream your head off when we used to come and take you out for the day.

1:07:15 > 1:07:22But when I came home, you know, it wasn't things I remember.

1:07:25 > 1:07:26I just remember how I felt.

1:07:30 > 1:07:35Because when you're a kid and you wake up in the middle of the night

1:07:35 > 1:07:37and there's no-one there...

1:07:40 > 1:07:42..you just remember feeling scared.

1:07:45 > 1:07:52And when you're sitting outside on a step and you're freezing,

1:07:52 > 1:07:53in the sleet...

1:07:56 > 1:07:58..you don't remember the colour of the door.

1:08:01 > 1:08:05You just remember thinking...

1:08:06 > 1:08:07..why doesn't he know?

1:08:09 > 1:08:11Why doesn't he know I'm hungry?

1:08:17 > 1:08:19Why doesn't he know that school's finished?

1:08:21 > 1:08:23Why doesn't he know, Shirl?

1:08:25 > 1:08:27I'm six years old!

1:08:29 > 1:08:30Mick, don't!

1:08:33 > 1:08:35That's a lie!

1:08:36 > 1:08:37I was never here!

1:08:41 > 1:08:42No-one was here.

1:08:44 > 1:08:46This place doesn't exist.

1:08:48 > 1:08:53Mick, I wish I could've stayed longer when you came back but...

1:08:54 > 1:08:57..I... I just couldn't handle it.

1:08:59 > 1:09:00It wasn't your job.

1:09:02 > 1:09:07Who cares what lies he's told himself? He's alone now.

1:09:07 > 1:09:11He's out there, cold and scared.

1:09:11 > 1:09:12Like you were.

1:09:14 > 1:09:16- He deserves it.- No.

1:09:16 > 1:09:18No, no, it's not right.

1:09:21 > 1:09:25- No, I've got to go back.- What?! - I've got to go and pick him up.

1:09:25 > 1:09:27What have you just been saying what he did to you?!

1:09:32 > 1:09:34I can't be him.

1:09:34 > 1:09:36I will NEVER be him.

1:09:39 > 1:09:40And neither can you.

1:09:51 > 1:09:53What are you doing out here?

1:09:53 > 1:09:55Er, just...

1:09:57 > 1:09:58Is Whit all right?

1:09:58 > 1:10:02Yeah, she'll be fine. She's just drunk, ain't she?

1:10:04 > 1:10:06Well, tell her I'm sorry.

1:10:08 > 1:10:09Luce, what's up?

1:10:10 > 1:10:13You've been acting funny all night.

1:10:13 > 1:10:14All week, really.

1:10:16 > 1:10:18Just worried about the business.

1:10:18 > 1:10:20Yeah, well, you can talk to me about things like that.

1:10:20 > 1:10:23That's what having a partner's all about.

1:10:23 > 1:10:25The business is going to be fine.

1:10:25 > 1:10:28It's me and you all the way to the big time.

1:10:31 > 1:10:33Why are you being so nice to me?

1:10:34 > 1:10:36Er, because you're my best mate.

1:10:38 > 1:10:41Well, look at you earlier, making sure that I didn't have a drink.

1:10:41 > 1:10:44And then making it funny, so that I didn't care about it.

1:10:46 > 1:10:49I'd hate to think that you were upset about something

1:10:49 > 1:10:50and you couldn't talk to me.

1:10:53 > 1:10:55I'd better go.

1:10:55 > 1:10:58OK, well before you go, please do one thing with me.

1:11:03 > 1:11:04Aren't you going to make a wish?

1:11:06 > 1:11:09Nah. We'll do it together. Ready?

1:11:19 > 1:11:21I wonder where we'll be on my 21st?

1:11:25 > 1:11:28- Getting chased out of bars and hiding in the cold.- Mm-hm.

1:11:28 > 1:11:31Whitney crying her eyes out, because she's fallen in love

1:11:31 > 1:11:33with some bloke from a different country on death row.

1:11:33 > 1:11:36Yeah, who's in a civil partnership with another man.

1:11:39 > 1:11:42Oh, just come back inside, eh?

1:11:42 > 1:11:43It's boring without you.

1:11:43 > 1:11:45MOBILE PHONE RINGS

1:11:47 > 1:11:48Nah. I've got to go.

1:11:50 > 1:11:54Just tell Whit that I didn't mean it.

1:11:59 > 1:12:00Luce!

1:12:01 > 1:12:03Thank you for sticking by me today.

1:12:05 > 1:12:06Got there in the end.

1:12:23 > 1:12:25Sure you're doing the right thing?

1:12:25 > 1:12:26He'll upset everyone.

1:12:28 > 1:12:29He will.

1:12:29 > 1:12:33He'll offend the punters. He'll get at Johnny.

1:12:34 > 1:12:36Bring out the worst in Nancy.

1:12:37 > 1:12:38All of that.

1:12:40 > 1:12:43It will be the longest three weeks of my life.

1:12:47 > 1:12:48Unless you help me.

1:13:15 > 1:13:17Did I die?

1:13:17 > 1:13:21Yeah. You didn't make heaven, funnily enough.

1:13:29 > 1:13:30Can I have one of those?

1:13:32 > 1:13:33If you like.

1:13:35 > 1:13:37I didn't think you'd get so angry.

1:13:37 > 1:13:39I'm not angry.

1:13:40 > 1:13:42- It was a stupid thing to do.- Oh!

1:13:45 > 1:13:48I'm just digging myself deeper, aren't I?

1:13:48 > 1:13:51Look, Jane, you've done nothing wrong.

1:13:51 > 1:13:55- It's fine. Just go to bed. - We both know that's not true.

1:13:55 > 1:13:57It's my fault.

1:13:57 > 1:14:00I mean, you haven't been here, I...

1:14:02 > 1:14:05Life has been one long screw-up for a while.

1:14:05 > 1:14:08I've made some very odd choices.

1:14:10 > 1:14:14But having you around the last few days, it's been...

1:14:14 > 1:14:16I've felt...

1:14:18 > 1:14:22The reason why I'm angry is that while you were kissing me, you were thinking of Ian.

1:14:22 > 1:14:24And me?

1:14:26 > 1:14:27I was...

1:14:29 > 1:14:31(Masood.)

1:14:31 > 1:14:32I wasn't thinking of Ian.

1:14:42 > 1:14:43MICROWAVE PINGS

1:14:46 > 1:14:49You going to be staring out that window much longer?

1:14:49 > 1:14:51Who are you waiting for, anyway?

1:15:07 > 1:15:08They're not coming.

1:15:08 > 1:15:09Who?

1:15:12 > 1:15:17Sadie's taking Bella to Dubai. She's got a sister out there.

1:15:18 > 1:15:19Who's Bella?

1:15:20 > 1:15:22My little girl.

1:15:22 > 1:15:23When will they be leaving?

1:15:23 > 1:15:25Tomorrow.

1:15:27 > 1:15:30I made their favourite. Moussaka.

1:15:32 > 1:15:34You might as well have it.

1:15:34 > 1:15:36You sure?

1:15:36 > 1:15:37Er, you're not hungry?

1:15:37 > 1:15:43I'm done crying over them.

1:15:43 > 1:15:44I can't believe you broke in!

1:15:44 > 1:15:46I used the key.

1:15:46 > 1:15:49Maybe you have got some of your grandad in you, after all.

1:15:49 > 1:15:52Oh, come here, you've had a bad day.

1:15:52 > 1:15:54Just seen Mick pulling up outside.

1:15:58 > 1:15:59You took your time.

1:15:59 > 1:16:02Yeah, well, I had to round up Shirley and all.

1:16:02 > 1:16:03Linda.

1:16:05 > 1:16:09I'm sorry, that thing I said about Lee.

1:16:09 > 1:16:12- Unforgivable.- Yeah, well, you don't seem to know any better.

1:16:12 > 1:16:13It won't happen again.

1:16:14 > 1:16:16Can we go up? I'm tired.

1:16:17 > 1:16:20All right, everyone, the living room's out of bounds, yeah?

1:16:22 > 1:16:23How long's he staying for?

1:16:23 > 1:16:25Three very long weeks.

1:16:26 > 1:16:29If he upsets either of you, you come straight to me, OK?

1:16:29 > 1:16:31I'll be all right, it's Johnny you want to worry about.

1:16:31 > 1:16:35- Sensitive soul, ain't he? - Get over yourself. - Whoa, is that Phil Mitchell?

1:16:35 > 1:16:36Where?!

1:16:36 > 1:16:39LAUGHTER

1:16:43 > 1:16:46DOOR LOCK BEEPS

1:16:52 > 1:17:00SOUND OF SHOWER RUNNING

1:17:09 > 1:17:11Thanks son.

1:17:11 > 1:17:14Good night, Dad. It's good to have you here.

1:17:16 > 1:17:19So, you're all sweet, yeah? So we'll see you in the morning.

1:17:19 > 1:17:22Three weeks. Don't get too comfortable.

1:17:22 > 1:17:25- You still scared of water, Son? - Water?!

1:17:25 > 1:17:28When was the last time you went down the swimming pool?

1:17:28 > 1:17:31I'm too tired for this. I just want my wife and I want my bed.

1:17:31 > 1:17:33Or swam in the sea?

1:17:33 > 1:17:37Or paddled on the banks of the Thames on a nice sunny day?

1:17:37 > 1:17:40Course I have.

1:17:43 > 1:17:47I... I remember so vivid. That song.

1:17:47 > 1:17:51"I'll Never Smile Again" on the radio in the kitchen.

1:17:51 > 1:17:57I remember, because we were sent home with the snow and I thought,

1:17:57 > 1:18:00"You must be joking, Frank! I'm grinning from ear to ear."

1:18:02 > 1:18:05And then I see water dripping down the wall.

1:18:05 > 1:18:07He doesn't need to hear this.

1:18:07 > 1:18:10Race upstairs. Someone's run a bath, fallen asleep.

1:18:11 > 1:18:15On the landing, Tina's crying, carpet's soaked.

1:18:15 > 1:18:17Into the bathroom.

1:18:17 > 1:18:22- She's over the bath. Arms in the water, staring down.- Who is?

1:18:22 > 1:18:24"What you doing, you silly cow?!"

1:18:24 > 1:18:27Turn off the taps. Takes ages.

1:18:27 > 1:18:29Water all swirling.

1:18:30 > 1:18:31And then I see...

1:18:32 > 1:18:36..something held down.

1:18:37 > 1:18:39Push her away, shouting.

1:18:40 > 1:18:43Pull you out.

1:18:43 > 1:18:45Limp.

1:18:45 > 1:18:47Someone was holding me down?

1:18:47 > 1:18:48Who?

1:18:50 > 1:18:53Lay you on a bed. Panic.

1:18:53 > 1:18:56Can't think what to do.

1:18:56 > 1:18:57And then...

1:18:59 > 1:19:01..a little cough.

1:19:04 > 1:19:06I thought I was going to fall over.

1:19:07 > 1:19:10Frank still singing up through the floor.

1:19:11 > 1:19:13Her still staring in the water.

1:19:20 > 1:19:22Who? Who is it?

1:19:28 > 1:19:30Sylvie.

1:19:35 > 1:19:36Mum?

1:19:36 > 1:19:39Sent her off to Aunt Babe's that night.

1:19:41 > 1:19:42Last time I saw her.

1:19:49 > 1:19:51You take your time, Mick.

1:19:52 > 1:19:56Bet hating me was the one thing in life you could count on.

1:19:58 > 1:20:02Like British summers, or Aunt Babe's trifles.

1:20:15 > 1:20:18Thanks for coming round to the idea of me staying, Shirl.

1:20:21 > 1:20:26I think, from now on, things will run very smoothly.

1:20:38 > 1:20:41# I'll never smile again

1:20:43 > 1:20:46# Till I smile with you. #

1:20:51 > 1:20:53- Stop it. I am not ticklish. - JANE LAUGHS

1:20:53 > 1:20:55- I never have been. - Yes, you have.

1:20:58 > 1:20:59SOUND OF KISSING

1:20:59 > 1:21:01Your tea's going to get cold.

1:21:01 > 1:21:03TV: "Then folding in the whipped cream."

1:21:09 > 1:21:11Oh, you OK?

1:21:13 > 1:21:15Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.

1:21:17 > 1:21:19Come and give me a cuddle.

1:21:20 > 1:21:21Come and give me one.

1:21:22 > 1:21:24All right, just this once.

1:21:29 > 1:21:31Didn't think you were going to bring him back.

1:21:32 > 1:21:35- It was tempting. - We'll manage.

1:21:36 > 1:21:39I swear to God, if he says one more thing about Lee...

1:21:39 > 1:21:40We'll ignore him.

1:21:47 > 1:21:48You want me to leave the water in for you?

1:21:50 > 1:21:51No.

1:21:51 > 1:21:52Nah, you're all right.

1:22:09 > 1:22:12Yeah. It's me.

1:22:13 > 1:22:15That thing we discussed.

1:22:16 > 1:22:18Well, now's the time.

1:23:04 > 1:23:09DOOR OPENS

1:23:09 > 1:23:11Hey.

1:23:12 > 1:23:14You took your time.

1:23:18 > 1:23:19Got here in the end.

1:23:30 > 1:23:31PHONE BEEPS

1:23:31 > 1:23:36- Someone's popular. - It's just Whitney.

1:23:38 > 1:23:40That's not the first time she's tried

1:23:40 > 1:23:43to get hold of you in the last 24 hours.

1:23:43 > 1:23:47Johnny?! Did you know about this? I could kill Sharon.

1:23:47 > 1:23:48Where's your dad?

1:24:09 > 1:24:10FRANTIC KNOCKING

1:24:10 > 1:24:13Mick, answer me!

1:24:13 > 1:24:16- Yeah, babe, what? - What you doing in there?

1:24:18 > 1:24:20I must have fallen asleep.

1:24:20 > 1:24:21I was about to bust the door down.

1:24:21 > 1:24:25I need you in the living room. Family conference, now.

1:24:25 > 1:24:26All right.

1:24:37 > 1:24:39You all right, Curtis?

1:24:39 > 1:24:43Ooh - "Tonight, come celebrate the grand opening of The Albert

1:24:43 > 1:24:45"with free cocktails and canapes."

1:24:45 > 1:24:49- All I can say is the owner of this establishment must be very generous. - She is.

1:24:49 > 1:24:50Come on, let's go.

1:24:50 > 1:24:53- Sharon, am I reading this right? "Free"?- That's what it says.

1:24:53 > 1:24:56- All night? - Well, on selected cocktails.

1:24:56 > 1:24:58I knew there'd be a catch. I'll think about it.

1:24:58 > 1:25:00You do that.

1:25:00 > 1:25:02Mum! You all right?

1:25:02 > 1:25:04Oh, yeah. As if everyone wasn't looking at me already.

1:25:04 > 1:25:08- No-one's looking at you. Don't be silly.- Is that all right? - You look beautiful.

1:25:08 > 1:25:11- Thank you. I'm late for work, darling.- Carol! I've got a full caff in there...

1:25:11 > 1:25:15- Sorry, I got held up. - Yeah, that's fine... Just take all the time you need, yeah?

1:25:15 > 1:25:19Oh! So that's how you shut Ian Beale up.

1:25:24 > 1:25:26Where's Dad?

1:25:26 > 1:25:28I think he's already left.

1:25:28 > 1:25:30Oh, but I didn't hear him come in last night.

1:25:30 > 1:25:32Yeah, well, you know what you're like. Sleep through anything.

1:25:32 > 1:25:35- Right, well, I'm going to go. I'll see you later. - See you later.

1:25:49 > 1:25:50PHONE BEEPS

1:25:52 > 1:25:54You're not going, are you?

1:25:56 > 1:25:57Why don't you just come back to bed?

1:25:57 > 1:26:00I've got a really busy day.

1:26:00 > 1:26:01I've got to go.

1:26:03 > 1:26:04See you later.

1:26:11 > 1:26:13Have you seen these? They're plastered all over the Square.

1:26:13 > 1:26:17Free cocktails and canapes. She's doing a spread now. How can we compete?

1:26:17 > 1:26:21If you're worried about a few vol au vents and a prawn ring, we ain't going to go out of business.

1:26:21 > 1:26:25It's all we need, with the market maybe closing. If only we had the pool table!

1:26:25 > 1:26:28- We could've started the tournament tonight. - Relax, L. Nancy's on the case.

1:26:28 > 1:26:31We're not competing with this mob. The Albert's a poncy bar. We're a boozer.

1:26:31 > 1:26:35Yeah, but what else has she got up her sleeve? That's what I want to know.

1:26:35 > 1:26:39I blame you for this. You were supposed to be my eyes and my ears.

1:26:39 > 1:26:43- I've said I'm sorry, didn't I? I made one mistake. If it was Nancy that did it...- Er...

1:26:43 > 1:26:45OK, fine, fine. If it was Lee that had done it, then,

1:26:45 > 1:26:49you would have shrugged it off and gone "Oh, that's Lee," and all would've been forgotten.

1:26:49 > 1:26:53Don't you bring your brother into this. He's out fighting for his country. What are you doing?

1:26:53 > 1:26:58- What is it you want from me?- I want you round there kissing Sharon's backside and getting your job back.

1:26:58 > 1:26:59Do you think you can do that?

1:26:59 > 1:27:02< It's nice to see the family getting on(!)

1:27:02 > 1:27:05And you can put that cigarette out, right now.

1:27:05 > 1:27:08If I wanted my ceilings yellow, I'd have gone with the magnolia.

1:27:08 > 1:27:12If you want to smoke, do it out the window, or outside, I don't care.

1:27:12 > 1:27:14This house is getting very crowded

1:27:14 > 1:27:17and you are in my bottom two, so be warned.

1:27:17 > 1:27:20Outside? I can't manage the stairs in my condition.

1:27:20 > 1:27:24Well, if it's the stairs you're worried about, I'm happy to give you a nudge.

1:27:24 > 1:27:26Come on.

1:27:26 > 1:27:30L. Go easy on Johnny. He said he was sorry.

1:27:37 > 1:27:38Cheers. Thank you.

1:27:38 > 1:27:40I like the scarf.

1:27:40 > 1:27:43You don't have to say that.

1:27:43 > 1:27:46- No, I actually do. - Thanks. What can I get you?

1:27:46 > 1:27:50Nothing. Actually, I'm just looking for my dad. Have you seen him?

1:27:50 > 1:27:52No. Not since yesterday. Why?

1:27:53 > 1:27:55What is it?

1:27:55 > 1:27:59Well, he didn't come home last night... I don't know.

1:27:59 > 1:28:02I know there's something's going on with him.

1:28:02 > 1:28:04Listen, you'd better sit down, Lauren.

1:28:08 > 1:28:10Mess.

1:28:18 > 1:28:20Sharon?

1:28:20 > 1:28:23If you've come here to help tidy up, you're a bit late.

1:28:23 > 1:28:26If I was you, I wouldn't give him the time of day.

1:28:26 > 1:28:29Just give us a few minutes, yeah.

1:28:29 > 1:28:30I'll be upstairs.

1:28:37 > 1:28:39I just wanted to say I'm sorry.

1:28:39 > 1:28:43Well, I don't know what you do at the Vic - that's between you,

1:28:43 > 1:28:47your mum and your dad, but you do not steal from my bar.

1:28:47 > 1:28:51- I don't make a habit of stealing from anyone. - So why did you do it?

1:28:52 > 1:28:54To make friends.

1:28:54 > 1:28:56I'll put back everything I took.

1:28:56 > 1:28:57It's not about that.

1:28:57 > 1:29:01You know, this place means a lot to me and I trusted you.

1:29:04 > 1:29:08Look, Johnny, you've done the right thing. You've apologised.

1:29:08 > 1:29:10So you can go.

1:29:11 > 1:29:13What about my job?

1:29:14 > 1:29:19Well, I'm not sure this is the right thing for you at the moment, Johnny.

1:29:19 > 1:29:22What is the right thing for me, then?

1:29:22 > 1:29:26- Go on, please tell me cos everybody else seems to know but me.- Johnny...

1:29:26 > 1:29:29I knew you were going to waste my breath. No-one listens to me anyway, do they?

1:29:39 > 1:29:41You all right? What's the matter?

1:29:43 > 1:29:46I can't believe you've been hiding something like that from me.

1:29:46 > 1:29:48What do you mean? What are you talking about?

1:29:48 > 1:29:53- What, were you just not going to tell me?- Can you just tell me what you're talking about?

1:29:53 > 1:29:56Don't you get it? If you could have that gene then I could have it too, Dad.

1:30:00 > 1:30:05Yeah, well, I just didn't want you to worry, Lauren, not till I got the results back.

1:30:05 > 1:30:08And Abi, she's got her exams to focus on.

1:30:08 > 1:30:10I don't want to stress her out, do I?

1:30:10 > 1:30:14Right, well, I'm coming with you... to your appointment. Carol told me it was today.

1:30:14 > 1:30:17Lauren, it's only a blood test. I don't get the results for weeks.

1:30:17 > 1:30:19I don't care. I'm coming with you.

1:30:19 > 1:30:22You shouldn't have to go through this on your own.

1:30:23 > 1:30:27All right, fine, I'll go and get changed and then we'll go, yeah?

1:30:27 > 1:30:29Dad?

1:30:29 > 1:30:32You don't have to keep secrets from me.

1:30:34 > 1:30:36Yeah, I know.

1:30:50 > 1:30:52You said nobody listens to you.

1:30:52 > 1:30:53Well, go on, I'm listening.

1:30:57 > 1:31:01What you said back there wasn't just about the job, was it, Johnny?

1:31:01 > 1:31:05No, I'm just angry at myself for messing things up. Just as I was getting somewhere.

1:31:06 > 1:31:10- Things ain't exactly been great at home since...- Since?

1:31:10 > 1:31:11Since I came out.

1:31:11 > 1:31:13Dad's been brilliant, but it's Mum.

1:31:13 > 1:31:15She thinks she's open-minded

1:31:15 > 1:31:19cos she bought a Joe McElderry Christmas album but the truth is

1:31:19 > 1:31:20she can barely even look at me.

1:31:20 > 1:31:23Which is weird, cos she's the one person

1:31:23 > 1:31:24I thought would stand by me the most...

1:31:24 > 1:31:26Yeah. Yeah, course.

1:31:26 > 1:31:30But she just shut down on me

1:31:30 > 1:31:36and I spend every day trying to win her back and I can't do it any more...

1:31:39 > 1:31:43I'm at uni. I'm the first one in our family that did that.

1:31:43 > 1:31:46You gave me the job at The Albert

1:31:46 > 1:31:49and I really felt like I was winning her round.

1:31:51 > 1:31:54She even called me "sausage" again the other day,

1:31:54 > 1:31:59which I know sounds completely ridiculous, but that means I'm on her good side.

1:31:59 > 1:32:00You know, when I was your age,

1:32:00 > 1:32:04I was a nightmare trying to get my parents to notice me.

1:32:04 > 1:32:05I was always playing up.

1:32:05 > 1:32:08I wasn't trying to get a job and go to uni.

1:32:08 > 1:32:12if I did, it would probably have been a different story.

1:32:12 > 1:32:14We all make mistakes.

1:32:14 > 1:32:18Learn from it, move on and don't steal from other people's bars.

1:32:18 > 1:32:21- I really am sorry. - Yeah, I know you are.

1:32:21 > 1:32:24- Which is why I want you behind my bar tonight.- Really?

1:32:24 > 1:32:28Really. I can't be doing without my best-looking barman, can I?

1:32:28 > 1:32:30I thought Curtis was your best-looking barman.

1:32:30 > 1:32:32He's not a patch on you, sweetheart.

1:32:34 > 1:32:35Thank you.

1:32:35 > 1:32:37You're welcome.

1:32:41 > 1:32:43PHONE BEEPS

1:32:58 > 1:32:59Cheers.

1:33:05 > 1:33:07Dad? Something happened last night

1:33:07 > 1:33:09and I don't want you to freak out about it.

1:33:09 > 1:33:11But you know I went out with my mates?

1:33:11 > 1:33:13Yeah.

1:33:13 > 1:33:16I almost had a drink.

1:33:16 > 1:33:18I didn't.

1:33:18 > 1:33:20I had the chance to and I didn't.

1:33:22 > 1:33:24But it got me thinking maybe I can.

1:33:24 > 1:33:26Maybe I can have just one drink.

1:33:26 > 1:33:30Lauren, it don't work like that. You can't just "have one".

1:33:30 > 1:33:33It don't matter if you feel like you're in control.

1:33:34 > 1:33:38Yeah, I know, but what? Am I just never going to drink again?

1:33:38 > 1:33:39Well, maybe, yeah.

1:33:41 > 1:33:43You've done really well up to now.

1:33:43 > 1:33:45Why are you just going to throw that away?

1:33:47 > 1:33:51I dunno. Moment of weakness, I guess.

1:33:53 > 1:33:55Come here.

1:34:00 > 1:34:03Right. I'm going to go see what's taking them so long.

1:34:06 > 1:34:08PHONE BEEPS

1:34:35 > 1:34:37Mum?

1:34:37 > 1:34:40You've got a visitor.

1:34:46 > 1:34:48Sorry for just turning up like this.

1:34:49 > 1:34:52But you haven't replied to any of my texts so...

1:34:54 > 1:34:57Johnny, I was really drunk last night, OK?

1:34:57 > 1:35:01Yeah, yeah, they say the truth comes out when you're drunk, don't they?

1:35:01 > 1:35:03I'm sorry.

1:35:03 > 1:35:05No, I'm sorry.

1:35:05 > 1:35:07Sorry that I opened up to you.

1:35:07 > 1:35:10- Don't be like that. - I told you things.

1:35:10 > 1:35:12I told you things I'd never told anybody before.

1:35:12 > 1:35:15- I said things that I hadn't even said out loud.- Yeah.

1:35:15 > 1:35:18- And all along you was just trying to get in my pants.- No, Johnny...

1:35:18 > 1:35:21What if it was the other way around? What if a boy did that to a girl?

1:35:21 > 1:35:24He'd be accused of taking advantage.

1:35:25 > 1:35:28I don't know. I don't know, Whit. I don't know where we are any more.

1:35:28 > 1:35:32- I thought we were mates. - We are, Johnny.

1:35:32 > 1:35:34Yeah, and that's all.

1:35:34 > 1:35:37- Yeah, I know.- Do you?

1:35:38 > 1:35:40Yeah. I promise.

1:35:45 > 1:35:47Come here.

1:35:47 > 1:35:49Come here.

1:35:52 > 1:35:56- Did we just have our first fight? - Yeah.

1:35:57 > 1:36:02I'm going to go back to work and get some lunch.

1:36:02 > 1:36:06- I'll see you later?- Sharon gave me my job back at The Albert.

1:36:06 > 1:36:10It's the big opening tonight if you want to come.

1:36:10 > 1:36:12- Cool.- All right.

1:36:18 > 1:36:21- So! How did it go? - Great. I got my job back.

1:36:21 > 1:36:22No, I meant with Whitney!

1:36:24 > 1:36:26Yeah, fine. It's all sorted.

1:36:26 > 1:36:27Good.

1:36:27 > 1:36:32- So, have you not got anything to say about me getting my job back? - What do you want? A gold star?

1:36:32 > 1:36:34You're lucky, after what you did.

1:36:34 > 1:36:37Sorry, what is wrong with you?

1:36:37 > 1:36:39- Excuse me? - I'm over it. I'm over it, Mum.

1:36:39 > 1:36:43I'm over trying to impress you. If nothing I do is good enough for you which clearly it's not,

1:36:43 > 1:36:48then don't bother coming tonight. I ain't doing it for you anyway. I'm doing it for Sharon.

1:36:48 > 1:36:49At least she cares about me.

1:36:58 > 1:37:00Wasn't that bad today, was it?

1:37:00 > 1:37:02And who knew Max Branning was scared of needles?

1:37:02 > 1:37:07No-one, Lauren. And it's going to stay that way, all right?

1:37:07 > 1:37:08KNOCK ON DOOR

1:37:08 > 1:37:10I'll get it.

1:37:10 > 1:37:13- Are you expecting anyone?- No.

1:37:13 > 1:37:14One second.

1:37:17 > 1:37:20- You all right?- Yeah. I hope I'm not interrupting anything.

1:37:20 > 1:37:24- No, no, not at all. - OK, I've got some really good news that you might want to hear.

1:37:24 > 1:37:28- What is it? - I got us a meeting about running the lettings campaign on Walford Common.

1:37:28 > 1:37:30What? That is amazing!

1:37:30 > 1:37:32- I know!- Come in. Come in. We're just having dinner.

1:37:32 > 1:37:37- Oh, no, really, it's fine... - No. No, it's all right. Dad, you don't mind if Lucy comes in, do you?

1:37:37 > 1:37:39Er...no, no. It's fine.

1:37:53 > 1:37:55You'll show Sharon up, looking like that.

1:37:55 > 1:37:58I don't think so.

1:37:58 > 1:38:02Course you will. You look gorgeous.

1:38:02 > 1:38:03I mean because I'm not going.

1:38:05 > 1:38:08I thought you wanted to check out the competition?

1:38:08 > 1:38:10Allegedly, Ian Beale's on nibbles

1:38:10 > 1:38:13so I can imagine how pretentious it's going to be.

1:38:13 > 1:38:16- You two coming? - Won't be a minute, girls. I'll meet you downstairs.

1:38:16 > 1:38:18All right. Hurry up.

1:38:25 > 1:38:27Johnny needs you there.

1:38:27 > 1:38:30Rubbish. Did I tell you what he said?

1:38:30 > 1:38:33He's not doing it for me.

1:38:33 > 1:38:37He's doing it for his best friend Sharon.

1:38:37 > 1:38:40And you believe that, do you, L?

1:38:42 > 1:38:44That's a real shame.

1:38:44 > 1:38:46Cos I remember when his best friend used to be his mum.

1:39:03 > 1:39:05Mum, why don't you come tonight?

1:39:05 > 1:39:07- Just for a bit. - What? Let my hair down?

1:39:08 > 1:39:11Honestly, darling, I'm tired.

1:39:11 > 1:39:14- Just come and have one.- No, honestly, I'm shattered. You go.

1:39:14 > 1:39:16Have fun... be young!

1:39:16 > 1:39:17Ready?

1:39:19 > 1:39:21- Yeah. See you later, then.- See you.

1:39:24 > 1:39:26DANCE MUSIC THUMPS

1:39:31 > 1:39:33Where did you find these people?

1:39:33 > 1:39:36I told you I was after a new crowd, didn't I?

1:39:36 > 1:39:39Sharon's certainly wearing the trousers tonight.

1:39:39 > 1:39:42How's it feel to be the woman in the operation?

1:39:42 > 1:39:43I don't know. Why don't you tell me?

1:39:43 > 1:39:47You're the one she's had in the kitchen all day preparing finger food.

1:39:47 > 1:39:49Oh, here she is!

1:39:49 > 1:39:50Thanks for coming. No Linda?

1:39:50 > 1:39:54No, no. She sends her apologies. She's run off her feet at The Vic.

1:39:54 > 1:39:56Oh. Go and get a drink, yeah?

1:39:59 > 1:40:00You know, if you was my wife,

1:40:00 > 1:40:03I wouldn't want to go off and leave you at home.

1:40:03 > 1:40:05If I was your wife I wouldn't be at home.

1:40:05 > 1:40:08I'd be diving headfirst off the nearest bridge.

1:40:08 > 1:40:11That's what I mean. You're a feisty one.

1:40:11 > 1:40:13Not going to down to watch your little Nancy

1:40:13 > 1:40:15taking her turn behind the bar tonight?

1:40:15 > 1:40:19- You mean Johnny. - That's who I'm talking about.

1:40:19 > 1:40:23- Just pulling your leg!- I don't like you talking about him like that.

1:40:23 > 1:40:26Like what? Like the way you do?

1:40:30 > 1:40:33Do us all a favour, and drink yourself to sleep.

1:40:44 > 1:40:47Whoa, whoa, slow down. No-one's going to take it off you.

1:40:47 > 1:40:50They will in a minute when it's empty, won't they?

1:40:50 > 1:40:52Can I have a Sex on the Beach please, Senor?

1:40:52 > 1:40:56- Yeah, and three Zam-brucas. - No probs.- Sambuca.

1:40:56 > 1:40:59What's with you two? Are you on a mission or something?

1:40:59 > 1:41:01Terry, you have gotta live each day as if it's your last,

1:41:01 > 1:41:04cos you don't know when it's going to be, do you?!

1:41:04 > 1:41:08Here we go, get that down your gregory, girl!

1:41:08 > 1:41:09- Cin cin.- Cheers.

1:41:11 > 1:41:14So basically, the developers on Walford Common are looking

1:41:14 > 1:41:17for a lettings company to manage their properties.

1:41:19 > 1:41:21And it's really competitive.

1:41:21 > 1:41:23Yeah, but Lucy told them that we could offer them

1:41:23 > 1:41:27- a reduced commission and they said that they'd meet us.- Smart move.

1:41:27 > 1:41:29Yeah, what did your dad say?

1:41:29 > 1:41:32He didn't bat an eyelid. But that's not surprising.

1:41:32 > 1:41:35Well, no offence, Lucy, but your dad's an idiot.

1:41:35 > 1:41:38They can't all be like you, Max.

1:41:38 > 1:41:40Well, to us!

1:41:40 > 1:41:41To us!

1:41:46 > 1:41:49Check her out. Su Pollard called. She wants her glasses back.

1:41:49 > 1:41:51Who's Su Pollard?

1:41:55 > 1:41:57I thought you said Linda weren't coming?

1:42:04 > 1:42:06Don't say a word.

1:42:06 > 1:42:08I've already re-applied my mascara once this evening.

1:42:08 > 1:42:12- I'm trying, Mick. I am trying. - I know you are.

1:42:12 > 1:42:13Linda, you made it.

1:42:13 > 1:42:16Shirley insisted she could hold the fort, so...

1:42:16 > 1:42:20Oh...come here!

1:42:20 > 1:42:21The place looks...

1:42:21 > 1:42:25I love what you've done with the dolls.

1:42:25 > 1:42:29And thanks for giving Johnny another chance.

1:42:29 > 1:42:30It's not hard. He's a good kid.

1:42:30 > 1:42:32I know.

1:43:26 > 1:43:28I think twerking girl over there has had enough.

1:43:39 > 1:43:43Let it go, will you? You're barking up the wrong gay tree.

1:43:43 > 1:43:46That's why there's so many single women in London.

1:43:46 > 1:43:49They hag it up for as long as they're young enough to dance

1:43:49 > 1:43:52and then they get spat out on the wrong side of 40 with no man,

1:43:52 > 1:43:56no dignity and wearing their boobies as an ankle skirt.

1:43:56 > 1:43:58You're a nice girl. You don't want that.

1:44:04 > 1:44:07- B, I'm going to go now. - Don't go! Stay!

1:44:07 > 1:44:10- I don't feel like it. - Oh, come on, Whit, Come and dance!

1:44:10 > 1:44:12- Sorry!- Well done!

1:44:12 > 1:44:15- What's happened, what's happened? - Bianca's drunk.- I'm not drunk.

1:44:15 > 1:44:18- Yes, you are.- I'm amazing! - No, you ain't. You're leaving. Come on. Come on, out.

1:44:18 > 1:44:20Come on, Phil - it's only a spilt drink, innit.

1:44:20 > 1:44:23Look at the state of your woman. You need to control her.

1:44:23 > 1:44:25I don't "control" my woman, Phil, I ain't that kind of a bloke.

1:44:25 > 1:44:28- Come on, we don't want any trouble. - You know she's going through?

1:44:28 > 1:44:32I don't care what she's going through. She don't bring it in here.

1:44:34 > 1:44:36Bianca!

1:44:39 > 1:44:42Sharon, can I get five minutes? Please?

1:44:42 > 1:44:44Four. Chuck us a cloth.

1:44:45 > 1:44:46Ease up.

1:44:46 > 1:44:49Bianca!

1:44:49 > 1:44:53- What are you getting upset about a spilt drink for? - I'm not upset about the drink, am I?

1:44:53 > 1:44:57I'm not upset about the drink... It's just me.

1:44:57 > 1:44:59It's just everything...

1:44:59 > 1:45:03It's just every time I think about my mum I just feel horrible, don't I?

1:45:04 > 1:45:06Come on, don't be silly.

1:45:09 > 1:45:13You're doing everything you can, aren't you?

1:45:13 > 1:45:15You just don't get it, do you? It's just...

1:45:16 > 1:45:20Every time I think about her, I just feel horrible.

1:45:20 > 1:45:24And every time I look at her I just think that could be me.

1:45:24 > 1:45:26And then I feel even more horrible because I'm just

1:45:26 > 1:45:29thinking about myself when I should be looking after my mum.

1:45:31 > 1:45:33She's so strong and I don't know if I can be -

1:45:33 > 1:45:35I just don't know if I could cope.

1:45:36 > 1:45:38I do.

1:45:38 > 1:45:42Bianca, you're one of the strongest women I know.

1:45:42 > 1:45:45Albeit outspoken, loud-mouthed and sometimes a liability...

1:45:48 > 1:45:52But that's the reason I love you so much.

1:45:52 > 1:45:55Look, worst case scenario, you've got this gene

1:45:55 > 1:45:58and you get sick from it, you'd be stronger than you realise.

1:45:58 > 1:46:00I know it.

1:46:02 > 1:46:07And on the days you can't be strong, I'll be strong for you.

1:46:07 > 1:46:09How does that sound?

1:46:09 > 1:46:11Do you think I'm a silly cow?

1:46:11 > 1:46:13Yeah.

1:46:13 > 1:46:17But I wouldn't change you for the world.

1:46:17 > 1:46:19Come here.

1:46:47 > 1:46:48PHONE RINGS

1:46:52 > 1:46:53Oh, get lost!

1:47:02 > 1:47:04What you done?

1:47:04 > 1:47:06I don't know what I'm doing any more.

1:47:06 > 1:47:08- Let me help.- No. Don't bother!

1:47:08 > 1:47:11- It's all right.- Don't bother with me, Johnny! I mean it!

1:47:14 > 1:47:18Just don't bother with me. Or this. Or anything any more, OK?

1:47:21 > 1:47:23I don't want to be your mate no more.

1:47:25 > 1:47:26I can't.

1:47:26 > 1:47:29SIREN BLARES

1:47:43 > 1:47:45Dad! Dad!

1:47:48 > 1:47:52- There's a fire at The Vic.- What? - There is a fire at the Vic. - Oh my... Quick!

1:47:57 > 1:48:01Dad, we're just going to go outside and see what's happening. You coming?

1:48:01 > 1:48:04No. No, you girls go. I need to clear up the kitchen.

1:48:04 > 1:48:05I'll help if you like.

1:48:05 > 1:48:09- I'll catch you in a bit. - All right.

1:48:19 > 1:48:21Right. Dishes.

1:48:29 > 1:48:30- Tosh!- What's happened?

1:48:30 > 1:48:32It was a small fire in the living room.

1:48:32 > 1:48:35Luckily we got it before it caused too much damage.

1:48:35 > 1:48:36How? What started it?

1:48:36 > 1:48:39- Looks like it could have been a cigarette.- Stan!

1:48:39 > 1:48:40Where's Dad? And Shirl?

1:48:40 > 1:48:43They went in the ambulance. They're fine.

1:48:43 > 1:48:45It was only Stan up there. Luckily some lad saved him.

1:48:45 > 1:48:46- Who?- What lad?

1:48:46 > 1:48:49I don't know - a punter, I think. He went with 'em in the ambulance.

1:48:49 > 1:48:51You all right?

1:48:51 > 1:48:52I'll get the motor.

1:49:03 > 1:49:06I didn't mean to make things awkward tonight.

1:49:06 > 1:49:09It's all right. Don't worry about it.

1:49:09 > 1:49:11I was just really excited about the news.

1:49:11 > 1:49:14Well, you should be. You did well.

1:49:16 > 1:49:17Really?

1:49:19 > 1:49:21Yeah, I said as much, didn't I?

1:49:23 > 1:49:25It's nice to know that someone appreciates me.

1:49:28 > 1:49:33Look, Luce, if your dad found out about this... Or the girls...

1:49:37 > 1:49:39Found out what?

1:49:53 > 1:49:55Shirley!

1:49:55 > 1:49:58- Thank God you're OK. - I'm fine, I'm fine.

1:49:58 > 1:50:02- What about Dad? - Old iron lung? Yeah, he's fine.

1:50:02 > 1:50:05Apparently if you smoke 180 fags a day, you don't die of smoke inhalation.

1:50:05 > 1:50:07Tosh said some bloke rescued him?

1:50:07 > 1:50:09Some bloke?

1:50:09 > 1:50:10Right.

1:50:10 > 1:50:12- What you on about?- Who is it?

1:50:16 > 1:50:18Lee?

1:50:18 > 1:50:20Mum, Dad.
