0:00:27 > 0:00:32Listen, if you want, Ian, I can get Roxy to hold the fort. We'll check out a few more places.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35Nah, I don't think so. Where else is there?

0:00:35 > 0:00:37All right, I get it - she stays out one night,

0:00:37 > 0:00:39she's doing it to wind me up.

0:00:39 > 0:00:42Stay out the whole weekend... What if something's happened to her?

0:00:42 > 0:00:45Come on. You know Mandy can look after herself.

0:00:45 > 0:00:49Yeah. Maybe she's realised she doesn't need me any more.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Do you know what else your mum used to like?

0:00:53 > 0:00:55Cheese.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58She used to like cheddar.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00And Edam...

0:01:00 > 0:01:02and spaghetti Bolognese.

0:01:02 > 0:01:08Yeah. She used to have more Parmesan on the Bolognese than Bolognese.

0:01:08 > 0:01:13- Shirl, we're out of milk. - Can you go get it?

0:01:13 > 0:01:16Me and George, we're all right here, aren't we?

0:01:17 > 0:01:19You like Bolognese and all, don't you?

0:01:21 > 0:01:23Just like your mum.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26She ain't stopped talking to him about Hev all morning.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29- It's just her way of dealing with it. - Yeah, well, it's creepy.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31It's better than her going after Andrew.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33The more we can keep them apart,

0:01:33 > 0:01:36less chance of her questioning that he did it. DOORBELL RINGS

0:01:36 > 0:01:40All right, come in, mate. Shirley!

0:01:43 > 0:01:47- It's my bed. - It's your new bed, George!

0:01:47 > 0:01:51It needs to go upstairs. Show him to your room, Ben.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58- All right, Alfie?- You all right?

0:01:58 > 0:02:02Where you been all morning? Listen, I've had another delivery.

0:02:02 > 0:02:05I got a batch of vodka that will put hairs on your chest.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07Derek, I'm still trying to get shot of the electrical stuff.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10Don't worry, I've found a buyer for all that.

0:02:10 > 0:02:11Here, what's the matter?

0:02:11 > 0:02:14I thought we had an understanding, me and you.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16We do, just... I need to keep in with my boss.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19Phil would have put the kibosh on all this

0:02:19 > 0:02:22if he didn't have things on his mind. You all right, Phil?

0:02:22 > 0:02:24He has though, ain't he?

0:02:24 > 0:02:27- Phil. How's Shirl?- Not now, Bill.

0:02:27 > 0:02:32I'll drop the booze round later. And any other little bits and bobs that come my way. All right?

0:02:32 > 0:02:34Don't worry, it's all good.

0:02:38 > 0:02:42- OK. Thank you. Bye.- Well?

0:02:42 > 0:02:45Yusef's money - it's cleared!

0:02:45 > 0:02:48THEY SHRIEK AND LAUGH Oh, thanks again, Zee!

0:02:48 > 0:02:50Yes, well, it's as it should be.

0:02:50 > 0:02:55Yeah, too right, after what he did, innit! Thanks, Zainab.

0:02:55 > 0:02:58So, can we get that big sofa I was telling you about?

0:02:58 > 0:03:00Steady! We've got to sort the basics first.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04Speaking of which - I came up with some more decorating ideas.

0:03:05 > 0:03:10- Yeah?- Yeah!- You know, my shift at the Vic starts now, so...

0:03:10 > 0:03:13I can't.

0:03:13 > 0:03:14(Good luck!)

0:03:14 > 0:03:16Denise...?

0:03:19 > 0:03:22DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES

0:03:29 > 0:03:32Not expecting company?

0:03:33 > 0:03:36Give you a hand with that, if you like?

0:03:36 > 0:03:38Janine's gone out on some errands so I ain't gotta rush back.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40Nah, we're all right.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42How you bearing up, Shirl?

0:03:42 > 0:03:46I'm all right. Gotta be, ain't I? For this little fella.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49I'll make you a cup of tea.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53Here, you sit there, darling.

0:03:53 > 0:03:56Keep your eye on him for a minute.

0:03:59 > 0:04:03I think you've got more important things to be doing than that, don't you?

0:04:03 > 0:04:05Like what?

0:04:05 > 0:04:09Like getting out there and showing Derek Branning who's the boss here.

0:04:09 > 0:04:12I heard him talking to Alfie. Sounds like they're selling dodgy gear.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16And you know he's sorting Janine out for the R&R and Manic Mondays?

0:04:16 > 0:04:17So what?

0:04:17 > 0:04:21So, him lording it up while you was stuck inside was one thing,

0:04:21 > 0:04:22but he's still doing it.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25I ain't got the time to deal with Derek right now.

0:04:25 > 0:04:29He is getting his feet right under your table, and what you doing, eh?

0:04:29 > 0:04:31Offering him a footstool! It ain't right.

0:04:34 > 0:04:36I'll help Shirley with the tea.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41Look, Dad, you gotta do something.

0:04:41 > 0:04:44Otherwise more and more people are going to start getting suss.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46Like Billy.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48They'll start asking questions.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50All right, I'll go and sort it out.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52You can help Billy finish this off, yeah?

0:04:57 > 0:05:02As it happens, why don't you go and help Jay in the Arches?

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Come on, mate. Come with me.

0:05:06 > 0:05:07Billy can manage on his own.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11'There's no point dragging it out.'

0:05:11 > 0:05:14Dad's at the cafe all day. He won't be home for ages.

0:05:15 > 0:05:19Lucy, if I wanted Ian to find me, I'd have come back before now.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21So, you just wanted to watch some daytime telly

0:05:21 > 0:05:23and have a free lunch, is that it?

0:05:23 > 0:05:24I'm surprised you need a freebie.

0:05:24 > 0:05:27Thought you would've snared yourself a new sucker by now.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31You never did believe I actually cared about your dad, did you?

0:05:31 > 0:05:35Just thought I saw him as some meal-ticket and that's it.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38Cos if you really cared about him, you'd step aside

0:05:38 > 0:05:40and give him the chance to find someone who's right for him.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42What? Someone nice?

0:05:42 > 0:05:45And sensible and stuck-up, like Saint Jane?

0:05:45 > 0:05:46No.

0:05:46 > 0:05:50Someone who likes the same stuff as him, someone he can talk to.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52Don't you find it a bit degrading,

0:05:52 > 0:05:55- how he parades you around like an airhead trophy?- He's proud of me.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57When was the last time

0:05:57 > 0:06:01he asked your opinion of a news story or a film?

0:06:01 > 0:06:04or showed any interest in something you like? He doesn't.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07Because even though he fancies you,

0:06:07 > 0:06:10he just thinks you're a trashy bimbo.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13You sound like my mum.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15I'm not trying to be nasty. I'm just being honest.

0:06:15 > 0:06:19D'you know what, Lucy, this won't take much longer,

0:06:19 > 0:06:24and I'll be out of yours and your precious family's hair

0:06:24 > 0:06:25before you know it.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28If you need money for a bus...

0:06:29 > 0:06:33You're not going to take the car my dad bought you, are you?

0:06:34 > 0:06:36No, ta.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38D'you know, actually, you're right.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40I've already lined myself up a fella

0:06:40 > 0:06:43with enough cash to see me travel out of here in style.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50And this one has a wonderful article about feature walls...

0:06:50 > 0:06:53- Lovely. ..How's Dot? Haven't seen her all weekend.- Not so good.

0:06:53 > 0:06:57Can't be easy for her, having Rose and Andrew living round the corner.

0:06:57 > 0:07:01Gives me the creeps, that man still lurking round Walford.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03You know, it's the brass neck of the bloke.

0:07:03 > 0:07:07Hang on, girls! Innocent until proven guilty.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10It's Shirley that I feel sorry for.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13- What?!- We weren't the best of friends, but still,

0:07:13 > 0:07:17- it must be very painful for her, no? - It's painful for all of us.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19But let's not go there with the blame game, eh?

0:07:19 > 0:07:22Let's show a bit of support for everyone.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27Alf, make it a double, actually.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30Ian, come on, mate. You need to go easy.

0:07:30 > 0:07:34Thought you were supposed to be over at the cafe anyway?

0:07:38 > 0:07:41Oi, look, look, look.

0:07:41 > 0:07:45- Something I can do for you?- No. Why, should there be?- You tell me.

0:07:45 > 0:07:50See what he's done there? He's made the old schoolboy error

0:07:50 > 0:07:54- with the wind-up technique.- But she's doing herself no favours with the playing it hard to get bit.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57You wouldn't know that tactic, would you, Peroxide?

0:07:57 > 0:08:00What would you wait, what, a whole five minutes before you pounce...

0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Ow, my BCG! - Listen, let me tell you something.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06At least I'm young enough to do a bit of pouncing.

0:08:06 > 0:08:10- How did you pull Kat? Did you hit her with your Zimmer frame? - Now that's below the belt, that is!

0:08:10 > 0:08:13Come on, let's give 'em a helping hand? Kim, Ray!

0:08:13 > 0:08:18- Alfie!- Ssh! Mate, you know what with Jean, she's a bit off-colour,

0:08:18 > 0:08:21what with Friday night and all that,

0:08:21 > 0:08:24hoping that maybe you could help out with the food?

0:08:24 > 0:08:27We ain't that busy behind the bar so that'd be great.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29No, no, I am not doing any more waitressing. Not for him.

0:08:29 > 0:08:33Yeah, I mean, come on, Alfie. It ain't exactly her strong point.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36Excuse me, what was wrong with my waitressing last week?

0:08:36 > 0:08:39I can stick a few plates on tables. It's easy.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42- Like stirring a pan on a stove, innit?- Fine.

0:08:42 > 0:08:43Don't blame me when she messes up.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46You know what? Bring it on, food boy!

0:08:46 > 0:08:48- "Food boy"?!- Yeah. - HE SCOFFS

0:08:48 > 0:08:50"Food boy!"

0:08:50 > 0:08:53OK. All right, this has got disaster written all over it.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56Nah, nah, they'll be working as a team soon. You'll see.

0:08:56 > 0:08:57Hello, mate, what can I get you?

0:08:57 > 0:09:00You tracked down Darren yet?

0:09:00 > 0:09:04No. Well, I emailed him, but I'm not sure he's checking the account, so...

0:09:04 > 0:09:06You better keep trying then, ain't you?

0:09:06 > 0:09:11Phil, sorry about the other night. If I'd have known Shirley would react like that...

0:09:11 > 0:09:14Never mind that. Listen, these deals you've had going with Derek

0:09:14 > 0:09:16these last few months, they've got to stop.

0:09:16 > 0:09:20They're not exactly deals. Just doing the odd favour...

0:09:20 > 0:09:22Yeah, whatever. Just make sure that his gear is out of here

0:09:22 > 0:09:24by the end of the day, understand?

0:09:24 > 0:09:26- You're the boss.- And I ain't forgotten the rent's due.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29You've got till the end of the week.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35Thought you was helping out in the caff.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39- Oi. I'm talking to you!- Marie's covering my dad's lunch break.

0:09:39 > 0:09:42And if it weren't for him the place wouldn't even be open.

0:09:48 > 0:09:49Why is Marie in there?

0:09:49 > 0:09:51She told me you had some big emergency.

0:09:51 > 0:09:56Yeah, I have. I'm conducting an emergency experiment

0:09:56 > 0:09:58in how much whiskey it takes

0:09:58 > 0:10:01for me to blot out an entire last year of my life.

0:10:01 > 0:10:04Dad, you need to snap out of this.

0:10:04 > 0:10:07People are relying on you. Bobby...

0:10:07 > 0:10:09Me, Shirley...

0:10:09 > 0:10:11IAN CHUCKLES

0:10:11 > 0:10:13You've grown up.

0:10:13 > 0:10:17Bobby - he'd rather spend his time with Shenice and Tiffany,

0:10:17 > 0:10:22and Shirley, tell you what - she couldn't give a monkey's who runs that caff, the state she's in.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25You know what, love?

0:10:27 > 0:10:28I used to be someone round here.

0:10:28 > 0:10:32People used to look up to me. They used to respect me.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34Now look at me.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Is it any wonder Mandy did a runner?

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Why don't we spend an afternoon on the sofa and watch movies,

0:10:41 > 0:10:44like we did when I was little?

0:10:45 > 0:10:49Dad, Mandy's gone and she's not coming back.

0:10:49 > 0:10:52And why would she, now she's got a new bloke to tap up?

0:10:53 > 0:10:57You know, you need to pull yourself together and stop the whole pity party.

0:10:57 > 0:11:01- How d'you know she's got a new bloke?- I don't.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04Lucy, if you've seen her, you'd better tell me!

0:11:04 > 0:11:07Come on, Lucy. Please.

0:11:07 > 0:11:11She came to pick up the rest of her stuff, but she's gone now.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14- OK, and where's she gone? - I don't know.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20- See you later, Phil. - Cheers, Darren. Thanks, mate.

0:11:20 > 0:11:24- Where's Jay?- Lunch.

0:11:24 > 0:11:25You seen my keys for the R&R?

0:11:25 > 0:11:28Why don't you want me to be at home?

0:11:28 > 0:11:29Eh?

0:11:29 > 0:11:32You don't trust me with him, do you? George.

0:11:32 > 0:11:34I don't know what you're talking about.

0:11:36 > 0:11:40You think I'm a freak. A nut-job.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43Is that why you don't want me to go to the shrink? Cos they'll see it?

0:11:43 > 0:11:44Just calm down, Ben, will you?

0:11:44 > 0:11:47Why? Am I scaring you?

0:11:47 > 0:11:49How could you even think that I'd hurt him?

0:11:49 > 0:11:50I'd never hurt George.

0:11:50 > 0:11:54I've been him. I know what it feels like to grow up without a mum.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57Ben, I can't deal with this right now, OK?

0:11:57 > 0:11:59Tell me you trust me with George.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08Ben. Ben!

0:12:21 > 0:12:26- I'm so glad you're still here. - Yeah, well. Not for long.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28Mand, I was bang out of order last Friday.

0:12:28 > 0:12:32I should never have believed all that rubbish your mum was spouting.

0:12:32 > 0:12:36Come on, please come back home. I'll make it up to you, I promise.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38It's too late.

0:12:39 > 0:12:41Is that because of your new fella?

0:12:43 > 0:12:45Lucy told me about him.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48- So what is he? Better looking? Richer?- Yeah, both.

0:12:48 > 0:12:53Obviously thinks a lot of you, letting you catch the bus.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56- I didn't mean it like that. - Yeah, you did, Ian.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59Because you just think of me as some cheap slapper.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01Like Lucy said - no better than trash.

0:13:01 > 0:13:04No. Mandy, I don't!

0:13:04 > 0:13:07Come on, let's go home, talk about it in the house, yeah?

0:13:07 > 0:13:10Why? Are you embarrassed? Like you was the other night?

0:13:10 > 0:13:13I know that's what you think of me, Ian,

0:13:13 > 0:13:16because you were so quick to believe I could just jump out of your bed

0:13:16 > 0:13:18straight into someone else's.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22There is no bloke, Ian!

0:13:22 > 0:13:24I made him up.

0:13:25 > 0:13:27The truth is, you know,

0:13:27 > 0:13:29I would rather be alone and sleeping in a gutter

0:13:29 > 0:13:32than to be back with someone who thinks so little of me.

0:13:37 > 0:13:40Mandy. Mandy, look, please...

0:13:42 > 0:13:43..don't leave me.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46Takes more than a ring, Ian.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48Me and you, we're just...

0:13:48 > 0:13:50It's just not going to work, Ian.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53- We've got nothing in common. - Yes, we have!

0:13:53 > 0:13:55Or...look, we will have.

0:13:55 > 0:13:59That comes from being together, from sharing stuff.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03You're on the Beale family tree now, aren't you? Mandy...

0:14:05 > 0:14:08Last week, I had a bit of a wobble, OK.

0:14:08 > 0:14:09And I let myself believe

0:14:09 > 0:14:12that you were like all the women from my past.

0:14:14 > 0:14:17That you were going to take me for everything I had and throw me away.

0:14:19 > 0:14:23But once you'd gone, I realised what a total idiot I'd been.

0:14:23 > 0:14:27I'd forgotten, you're not like the women from my past.

0:14:27 > 0:14:29You're different and I forgot that.

0:14:30 > 0:14:34I spent the whole weekend trying to find you.

0:14:34 > 0:14:35Mandy, if you come back,

0:14:35 > 0:14:40I swear that you'll never think that you're trash.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43I'll never take you for granted, and...

0:14:43 > 0:14:46I'll never let you think that you are not everything to me.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48Because you are.

0:14:50 > 0:14:52You are everything.

0:15:02 > 0:15:06Ding dong, Derek calling! New delivery for Miss Butcher.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09Suppose I'm going to have to get used to calling you Mrs Moon soon.

0:15:09 > 0:15:13- Dunno if I like that.- No need to be so formal, Derek. "Phil" is fine.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17I asked Janine to pop out so me and you could have a little chat.

0:15:20 > 0:15:22- Is that so?- Yeah.

0:15:22 > 0:15:26I appreciate you looking after things while I've been away.

0:15:26 > 0:15:31But... Well, I'm back now, so I won't be needing your services any more.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33That's unfortunate, Phil.

0:15:33 > 0:15:37You're going to be hard-pressed to find a booze supplier who can match my prices.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39Well, I won't need to.

0:15:39 > 0:15:42I've decided to knock it on the head with Manic Mondays anyway.

0:15:42 > 0:15:43Bit downmarket for my taste.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45And Janine's all right with that?

0:15:45 > 0:15:48I'm the majority shareholder. She answers to me.

0:15:48 > 0:15:51Just like Alfie.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55- No hard feelings, eh? - None at all.

0:15:57 > 0:16:01I was going to have to tell Janine we should wrap up our current arrangement.

0:16:01 > 0:16:05Stocks are running a bit low. So, it's worked out well for everybody.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14Excuse me. We ordered our vegetable bakes ages ago.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16How much longer do you reckon they'll be?

0:16:16 > 0:16:20I'm really sorry, there must be some kind of mix-up.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22Can you excuse me a moment, please?

0:16:23 > 0:16:27I shouted service about ten minutes ago. That food will be going cold.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30Sorry. I didn't hear you. Just put it in the microwave, innit.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32It won't taste nice reheated.

0:16:32 > 0:16:35- They ain't going to notice. - They work in a restaurant, of course they will!

0:16:35 > 0:16:38Alf, I ordered mine after them. Am I going to get any lunch?

0:16:38 > 0:16:42Just give us a second, Jack. Excuse me, what's the problem?

0:16:42 > 0:16:45- She's allowing the food to get cold!- He's having a hissy fit!

0:16:45 > 0:16:48I'm not interested! Can we just get the food out? Thank you.

0:16:48 > 0:16:51I'm really sorry for the delay. It should be any second now.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53Sorry.

0:16:54 > 0:16:55Better be careful with those.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58Don't want a customer chomping down on one of your false nails, do we?

0:16:58 > 0:17:00You know, if you're so worried,

0:17:00 > 0:17:03why don't you serve your poncey food yourself?

0:17:03 > 0:17:07- My food ain't poncey! - OK, could we just get ANY food?

0:17:07 > 0:17:10- Let's just get something at home. Alfie, forget it.- Any food?

0:17:10 > 0:17:14- No-one here wants to eat a bisque! - Like you even know what a bisque is.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16You probably think it's a bra!

0:17:16 > 0:17:20- When it comes to underwear I know what I'm talking about! - OK, well done. Well done.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23This was not one of your best ideas, was it?

0:17:23 > 0:17:26- You're losing money, Alfie. - No, no, just give 'em a bit longer.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28They've had their row, now they'll do the kiss and make up.

0:17:28 > 0:17:31Oh yeah? You're such a romantic fool, you are.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34And you know what you are, you're just an old cynic.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36That's what you are.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41- What are you going to tell him? - Tell him the deal's off.

0:17:41 > 0:17:42- Alfie...- I'll be fine.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46- There you go, love.- Ooh, ta. Cheers.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51Glad to see that back where it belongs.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54Yeah.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58What's this rubbish we're watching?

0:17:58 > 0:18:00It's that reality programme I like.

0:18:00 > 0:18:04This girl's mum is such a nag.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08We can watch something else.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10No, it's fine. We'll stick with it.

0:18:12 > 0:18:13Never know, might become my thing.

0:18:24 > 0:18:31- What are you doing? - You know, I would rather know what's going on in the world.

0:18:31 > 0:18:36You're always talking about this "socio...economic deficit".

0:18:36 > 0:18:39- Mm.- What's it actually mean?

0:18:41 > 0:18:43It's a bit hard to explain, really.

0:18:43 > 0:18:46- Try me.- OK.

0:18:47 > 0:18:51Well, the basic term "socioeconomic status",

0:18:51 > 0:18:56that refers to a group or individual's position within the hierarchical social structure...

0:18:56 > 0:18:59Mm-hmm.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02You don't really want to know this, do you?

0:19:04 > 0:19:10How about, all right, we go out and paint the town red?

0:19:10 > 0:19:12Or blue. Or whatever colour you want.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15- Yeah?- Yeah.- Maybe we could go up West End, hit a club later?

0:19:15 > 0:19:16Mm!

0:19:16 > 0:19:21I tried to get Phil to change his mind, but you know what he's like once he's made a decision.

0:19:21 > 0:19:26You've got more chance of getting a rabbi to lunch in a sausage-making factory.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28THEY CHUCKLE

0:19:28 > 0:19:31Like you said before, he's your boss. Not me.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33Thanks for being understanding.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36No, no! See, that's what people fail to get about me, Alfie.

0:19:36 > 0:19:38I'm a very understanding man.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41- No hard feelings, then, eh? - No, none at all.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45- This is business, it's not personal. - No, course not.- Is it, Alfie?

0:19:45 > 0:19:47No!

0:19:47 > 0:19:49Cos if it was...

0:19:55 > 0:19:57Look, I'd love to help, mate, but I've got to be

0:19:57 > 0:20:00- three other places today. - What's your fee? I'll top it.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03Come on, I've got to get this done quick.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08- All right. I'll get my tools. - Nice one.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11Wow. That's never a real life builder, is it?

0:20:11 > 0:20:13Was starting to think they didn't exist.

0:20:13 > 0:20:17I think I found the last one. Got a bit of re-plastering needs doing in the gym.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19I had the electricians in.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21Got ancient pipes in there, I don't know what's going on.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25But you would've thought I was asking for a rebuild, the time it's taken to find someone.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Jack, don't suppose you could give me his number?

0:20:28 > 0:20:30The sooner I get quotes on the old place,

0:20:30 > 0:20:34the sooner me and Kim can move out of that hovel Janine laughingly calls a "bijou apartment".

0:20:34 > 0:20:37I'll send him your way when he's done with me, yeah.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39- Yeah? Brilliant. Thanks, Jack. - See you later.- See you.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44Sorry, 'scuse me.

0:20:44 > 0:20:48Listen, I know you've got some work to do, but I've got this B&B...

0:20:48 > 0:20:51ALFIE LAUGHS

0:20:51 > 0:20:54Bottle of your finest champagne please, Mr Moon.

0:20:54 > 0:20:58Well, if it's not Walford's very own Posh and Becks, reunited.

0:20:58 > 0:21:02I knew you'd be back, Mandy, if you don't mind me saying, love.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04Listen, promise me, there's going to be no punch ups.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07Cos I do not have a boxing license.

0:21:07 > 0:21:09When you said we'd be painting the town red,

0:21:09 > 0:21:12I thought you'd take me somewhere other than the Vic.

0:21:12 > 0:21:13We're not going to stop here long.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16- Here we go, guys. - Thank you, Mr Moon.- One for you,

0:21:16 > 0:21:19and one for you.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21- Congratulations.- There you go.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24Here we are. Here's to me and Mandy.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26Back together and better than ever!

0:21:26 > 0:21:29- Congratulations.- Ah, sweet(!)

0:21:35 > 0:21:37Ray, come here, mate.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40Jean may be back tomorrow.

0:21:40 > 0:21:43So just do me a favour... just stick with it, yeah?

0:21:43 > 0:21:45Come on. Do it for me.

0:22:03 > 0:22:07Hmm... I wonder what put him in such a lousy mood.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17Think I got it wrong about those two...

0:22:17 > 0:22:20Thank you! Thank you!

0:22:20 > 0:22:23No, I'm thinking they haven't got the hots for each other.

0:22:23 > 0:22:25- No?- No, cos they are in love!

0:22:25 > 0:22:28- You know what, listen... I tell you who is not in love.- Who?

0:22:28 > 0:22:33- These two. How try hard is Ian? How try hard, come on?- I know.

0:22:33 > 0:22:35But if he's got it, he wants to flaunt it. Good luck to him.

0:22:35 > 0:22:39How about we go to the Argee Bhajee for a curry,

0:22:39 > 0:22:42and then go onto the R&R and I could dance badly!

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Is there anywhere in Walford you don't want to take me to?

0:22:46 > 0:22:50I'm proud of you. I just want to show you off to everyone!

0:22:53 > 0:22:56- What are you doing?- Erm...

0:22:56 > 0:23:00I'd rather have this at home. Wouldn't you? In bed.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02OK. Alfie, I'll bring the glasses back.

0:23:02 > 0:23:06- See you! - Yeah, have fun, you guys. Bye!

0:23:08 > 0:23:10- Cora...- Sit down.

0:23:10 > 0:23:14I was thinking about what you said earlier,

0:23:14 > 0:23:16about us supporting each other.

0:23:17 > 0:23:20Well, there's this book club that we used to have.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23Sounds thrilling.

0:23:23 > 0:23:28It weren't really about the books. It was more an excuse to down a few bottles.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30I thought, you know, why not resurrect it?

0:23:30 > 0:23:34Nice idea. Just tell me where and when and I'll be there.

0:23:34 > 0:23:38I might even be able to persuade Dot to come.

0:23:38 > 0:23:42Yeah, well, thing is...

0:23:42 > 0:23:45Can't really use our current digs - too small.

0:23:45 > 0:23:49So I wondered how you thought Tan might feel

0:23:49 > 0:23:52about playing hostess. It's just, she used to really enjoy it,

0:23:52 > 0:23:56but after everything she's been through, I didn't like to presume.

0:23:56 > 0:24:00Tomorrow suit you? Tanya would love to get back to normal.

0:24:00 > 0:24:04It's what she needs. What we all need.

0:24:04 > 0:24:05Yeah.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07DOOR OPENS

0:24:07 > 0:24:11Ssh. I've just got George off to sleep.

0:24:11 > 0:24:14Shirl, just because we got him a bed...

0:24:14 > 0:24:17When Darren finds out, he's going to want him back.

0:24:17 > 0:24:18He SHOULD have him back.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20But he ain't here though, is he?

0:24:20 > 0:24:23He couldn't even be bothered to go and see Hev when she was alive.

0:24:23 > 0:24:27And George, these days he knows me better than him.

0:24:27 > 0:24:29And you, and Jay and Ben...

0:24:29 > 0:24:31They back yet?

0:24:31 > 0:24:35No, Jay's gone out with Abi. Ben ain't been home.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37Phil, I know what's on your mind.

0:24:37 > 0:24:41I've seen how uncomfortable Ben is around George. But...

0:24:41 > 0:24:43He misses Hev. He's taken it hard.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48I don't understand why you didn't come to me first.

0:24:48 > 0:24:52It'll be an orgy of alcohol and saturated fat at Tanya's.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54What d'you think you're playing at?

0:24:54 > 0:24:56What, me?

0:24:56 > 0:25:00- I don't see anybody else here who's poached my builder.- Oh no, listen!

0:25:00 > 0:25:03I just mentioned to him that I wanted some work doing

0:25:03 > 0:25:05and he insisted on taking a look.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07I assumed he'd come straight back to your place.

0:25:07 > 0:25:11Well, he ain't. Cos he's cancelled. He's got a bigger job.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13Three guesses who that might be!

0:25:13 > 0:25:16Look, I had no idea. I'm sorry.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18What is it with your family?

0:25:18 > 0:25:22I just went without lunch cos of that fruit-loop sister of yours, now you're doing this. What next?

0:25:22 > 0:25:24Patrick going to pop up, slash my tyres?!

0:25:24 > 0:25:27Don't bring my family into it. Go on, get out. You're barred!

0:25:28 > 0:25:31Suits me fine.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36You might've been more supportive!

0:25:36 > 0:25:41Well, maybe if you'd supported ME, by asking ME to host book club...

0:25:49 > 0:25:53Ian. Come back to bed.

0:25:53 > 0:25:55We can try again.

0:25:57 > 0:26:01It's probably just all the champagne. Happens to loads of fellas.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05Just go back upstairs! Please.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08DOOR SLAMS Was it...?

0:26:09 > 0:26:11You two you made up, then?

0:26:12 > 0:26:15You could've at least used your own room.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17I'm going to need years of therapy to get over this.

0:26:17 > 0:26:18Just give it a rest, why don't you?

0:26:18 > 0:26:21What happened to the new bloke?

0:26:22 > 0:26:23Thought so.

0:26:29 > 0:26:33You could at least look happy, Dad. I thought this was what you wanted.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36Don't worry. I'm not going to stay for round two.

0:26:36 > 0:26:39I'm going to go pick up Bobby from Holiday Club.

0:26:39 > 0:26:42And try and make yourself decent before we get back.

0:26:51 > 0:26:54Looks like someone don't want to go home.

0:26:54 > 0:26:58It's all right, it's all right. No need for that. I don't bite.

0:27:00 > 0:27:03We used to get along, once upon a time, me and you.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06Eh? When your old man was detained at Her Majesty's pleasure.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10You know, Ben...

0:27:11 > 0:27:14You can always come to me, you know.

0:27:15 > 0:27:19I want you to think of me as a sort of... Well, as a surrogate father.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24Anything you want to talk about, any time.

0:27:24 > 0:27:27Oi, get away from him. Get away from my son.

0:27:27 > 0:27:31I don't think Ben's got a problem with me sitting here, have you, Ben?

0:27:31 > 0:27:34I will say this as clear as I can, so I don't have to repeat myself.

0:27:34 > 0:27:37Stay away from my businesses, stay away from my family -

0:27:37 > 0:27:40and, most importantly of all, stay away from my son.

0:27:41 > 0:27:44You heard my dad.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49Only shooting the breeze. No harm meant.

0:27:51 > 0:27:54But if that's the way you want it...

0:27:56 > 0:27:59The line's been drawn.

0:28:26 > 0:28:29Derek, I told you, mate, I can't take no more at the Vic, all right?

0:28:29 > 0:28:31Nah, this is different.

0:28:31 > 0:28:32Bigger.

0:28:32 > 0:28:34A proper job.

0:28:34 > 0:28:37You do still need cash, don't you, Alfie?

0:28:37 > 0:28:40Cup of coffee please, darling.

0:28:45 > 0:28:47Sorry. Maybe next time.

0:28:47 > 0:28:50Well, it's your decision. Oh, Alfie.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54- Poker.- Do what?! - I thought you might want a rematch.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56You do still play cards, don't you?

0:28:56 > 0:28:58Course I do. Just say when and where.

0:28:58 > 0:28:59Basher's, 7.30.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02Tonight?!

0:29:02 > 0:29:06OK, let me have a chat with Jean, see if she can take care of Shenice, all right?

0:29:06 > 0:29:08Good. I'll get my brothers together.

0:29:08 > 0:29:11You bring your cousin, make up the numbers.

0:29:20 > 0:29:23Sorry, I thought I told you it was book club.

0:29:23 > 0:29:25Yeah, I just didn't realise it was tonight, that's all.

0:29:25 > 0:29:28I was going to cook us a dinner and Abi was going to take Oscar out.

0:29:28 > 0:29:30We was going to have the whole place to ourselves.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32I can't really back out now.

0:29:32 > 0:29:34- MAX SIGHS - Well, we'll do it another time.

0:29:34 > 0:29:38Well, I suppose this means you want me out from under your feet, is it?

0:29:38 > 0:29:40Women only, yeah?

0:29:40 > 0:29:43It's all right, there's a car auction.

0:29:43 > 0:29:45I'll go to that.

0:29:45 > 0:29:46- Lovely idea, Max.- Yeah.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50I thought you loved poker.

0:29:50 > 0:29:52I do, but not as much as I love my arms and legs.

0:29:52 > 0:29:56Which I won't have much longer if I keep dipping into Phil's rent, will I?

0:29:56 > 0:29:58Granddad, you will be fine, all right?

0:29:58 > 0:30:02A bit of blag, a bit of charm - it's what you do best, ain't it, eh? You can't lose.

0:30:02 > 0:30:06Come on, you going to Tan's book club tonight or what?

0:30:06 > 0:30:08Who says I've been invited?

0:30:08 > 0:30:11Anyway - bothered? Not my thing. Move your foot, please.

0:30:11 > 0:30:15They won't mind you pitching in, darling. It'll be fine - Jean can take care of Amy.

0:30:15 > 0:30:19- I bet it hasn't been a barrel of laughs round your place lately. - That's an understatement.

0:30:19 > 0:30:23Nah, me and Tanya, we're not exactly bosom buddies, you know?

0:30:23 > 0:30:26Rox, just put out the hand of friendship like that.

0:30:26 > 0:30:28Weren't you always telling me

0:30:28 > 0:30:31that you and Ronnie were the social lifeblood of the Square?

0:30:32 > 0:30:35Nah, you know what? Even if I fancied it, let me tell you something.

0:30:35 > 0:30:37The last book I read was probably...

0:30:37 > 0:30:41- the photo stories in... the My Guy annual, 1988.- No!

0:30:41 > 0:30:43I remember them! You've just got to blag it.

0:30:43 > 0:30:47Go on one of these online book stores, check out the reviews. Come on, job done.

0:30:47 > 0:30:50Come on, Cinders, keep sweeping.

0:30:52 > 0:30:55I do hope Tanya's not going to make those awful vol-au-vents.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58They're not a patch on my samosas.

0:30:58 > 0:31:00- I'll put the kettle on.- Yes.

0:31:05 > 0:31:07Wicked Witch of the West ain't about, is she?

0:31:07 > 0:31:10If you are referring to my friend and colleague Denise, she's busy.

0:31:10 > 0:31:13Good. Can I get a bottle of scotch, please?

0:31:13 > 0:31:15Unless I take my money elsewhere.

0:31:20 > 0:31:21Oi!

0:31:21 > 0:31:23What you doing? He's barred!

0:31:23 > 0:31:25Come on, isn't this a little bit childish now?

0:31:25 > 0:31:27- He started it!- No, you did,

0:31:27 > 0:31:30when you stole my builder. Give us the scotch. Here you are.

0:31:30 > 0:31:32Thank you, Zainab.

0:31:35 > 0:31:38Oh, that man... He's asking for a slap!

0:31:40 > 0:31:44- Count me out. Getting fleeced by the Brannings ain't my idea of fun.- Oh...

0:31:44 > 0:31:48You got better things at home to do with the missus, eh? Good lad.

0:31:48 > 0:31:51Oh, don't tell me, trouble in paradise again, is there?

0:31:51 > 0:31:52No, it's, erm...

0:31:52 > 0:31:56Have you had times, you know, with you and Kat, when, erm...

0:31:56 > 0:31:58Me and Kat what?

0:31:58 > 0:32:01I'll tell you what, it's like you've got a new car,

0:32:01 > 0:32:02but the engine won't rev.

0:32:02 > 0:32:06- Ian, what you talking about? New car?- Never mind, don't worry.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08- Hiya.- All right, love? - Hello, sweetheart.

0:32:08 > 0:32:10You left early today.

0:32:10 > 0:32:13Yeah, got a lot to do. With the stall and running the caff and stuff.

0:32:13 > 0:32:17Right. Well, look, I thought, what with Bobby and Lucy out,

0:32:17 > 0:32:20maybe tonight we could snuggle up with a DVD.

0:32:20 > 0:32:23Little glass of wine, relax...

0:32:23 > 0:32:27Look, I'd love to, but I've got to dash, all right?

0:32:27 > 0:32:30I promised Alfie and the lads I'd play cards tonight.

0:32:30 > 0:32:32It's not really my bag.

0:32:32 > 0:32:34And you agreed to this because?

0:32:34 > 0:32:37Cos I needed the brownie points. I told Derek I was going to ask you.

0:32:37 > 0:32:41- If you don't come, you'll look like a wuss - up to you. - Thanks, cousin, very thoughtful(!)

0:32:42 > 0:32:45All right, Phil? What can I do for you?

0:32:45 > 0:32:48You and Derek looked very cosy in the caff earlier.

0:32:48 > 0:32:51Listen, you don't need to worry about that.

0:32:51 > 0:32:55All the stuff that was out the back, he's cleared it all out.

0:32:55 > 0:32:57- Check it if you like. - I think I'll do that.

0:32:58 > 0:33:00You going to this game later?

0:33:00 > 0:33:03What you on about?

0:33:03 > 0:33:04This poker game at Basher's.

0:33:04 > 0:33:06I thought you knew. Derek set it up.

0:33:11 > 0:33:13Good. Come on, then, if you're going.

0:33:13 > 0:33:15Ooh, you've changed your tune, have you?

0:33:15 > 0:33:18Yeah.

0:33:18 > 0:33:20Should be a laugh.

0:33:41 > 0:33:42- All right?- Hi.

0:33:42 > 0:33:45- Mind if I sit down? - No, go on.- Cheers.

0:33:48 > 0:33:52So, you not been invited to book club either?

0:33:52 > 0:33:54Oh! Is that where they're all going?

0:33:54 > 0:33:58- Yep.- Oh. Sounds tragic.- You know it.

0:33:58 > 0:34:01Oh, cheers.

0:34:01 > 0:34:03Sorry, I've got to...wipe it.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05MANDY GIGGLES

0:34:06 > 0:34:09You know what? Me and my sister used to do this before we went out.

0:34:09 > 0:34:13What, get tanked up before you hit the clubs? Been there.

0:34:13 > 0:34:14You know what, though?

0:34:14 > 0:34:17It was kind of, like, our way of kicking off the evening.

0:34:17 > 0:34:19Not the highlight of the night, but...

0:34:19 > 0:34:21Oh, wow.

0:34:21 > 0:34:22Are we the tragic ones?

0:34:23 > 0:34:28Well, there's only one way to find out.

0:34:29 > 0:34:30We should've brought a bottle.

0:34:30 > 0:34:33Would you rather shell out on these or on food for the kids?

0:34:33 > 0:34:35Anyway, they don't notice.

0:34:35 > 0:34:37- Oh, cheers, Tanya.- Thanks, Tan.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40Where you sneaking off to?

0:34:41 > 0:34:43The Vic...for wine.

0:34:43 > 0:34:46Well, I'm sure Tanya's got a vat of it in the kitchen.

0:34:46 > 0:34:49This wouldn't be about a certain someone who works there, would it?

0:34:51 > 0:34:53Ray?

0:34:53 > 0:34:57Fine. Just don't blame me when we run out of booze, yeah?

0:35:02 > 0:35:05I don't know why I let you talk me into coming here.

0:35:05 > 0:35:08I mean, I only read the Bible nowadays.

0:35:08 > 0:35:10Modern books are full of fornication and violence.

0:35:10 > 0:35:13I mean, there's enough in the world as it is.

0:35:13 > 0:35:15Ain't about the books, though, is it?

0:35:15 > 0:35:18It's about neighbours getting together to break bread

0:35:18 > 0:35:20and support each other.

0:35:20 > 0:35:23You don't have to go to church for that, Dot.

0:35:23 > 0:35:25Cora, it ain't the same at all.

0:35:25 > 0:35:29Do you know what? I love what you've done with this room, Tan.

0:35:29 > 0:35:30Oh, thank you.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33It's much more modern than what other people do round here.

0:35:33 > 0:35:35Didn't you ask Shirley to come, then?

0:35:35 > 0:35:38It didn't seem right after how she reacted last week in the Vic.

0:35:38 > 0:35:40Can you blame her for being so upset,

0:35:40 > 0:35:42with her best friend's killer walking around the Square,

0:35:42 > 0:35:44bold as brass?

0:35:44 > 0:35:46We don't know that yet, do we?

0:35:46 > 0:35:51- Who else could it be, though, really?- Sorry, Dot, didn't mean to upset you.

0:35:51 > 0:35:54- Right, so shall I put some music on? - Yes. Good idea. It's over there.

0:35:54 > 0:35:56Could we make a start, please?

0:35:56 > 0:36:00Because I went down to the library and picked up some potential choices.

0:36:00 > 0:36:04I thought you said we wouldn't have to talk about any books!

0:36:04 > 0:36:08And seeing as we haven't done many classics, I thought how about a Bronte sister?

0:36:08 > 0:36:12Oh, Zainab, bore-off!

0:36:13 > 0:36:16Excuse me, who invited you two?

0:36:16 > 0:36:19Well, the door was on the latch so we thought it was an open house.

0:36:19 > 0:36:22We didn't come empty-handed.

0:36:22 > 0:36:23What's that?

0:36:23 > 0:36:26Oh, I've actually read this.

0:36:26 > 0:36:28You think it's going to be about some weird medical disorder

0:36:28 > 0:36:33and it actually turns out to be a really good psychological thriller.

0:36:33 > 0:36:34It's quite gripping, actually.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36Yes, well, that's very nice.

0:36:36 > 0:36:38But I think we're a bit full up this time round.

0:36:38 > 0:36:39Maybe next time.

0:36:39 > 0:36:42What happened to community spirit?

0:36:42 > 0:36:44Yeah, Dot's right.

0:36:44 > 0:36:46The more the merrier.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48Make yourselves at home, girls.

0:36:48 > 0:36:49Just keep her out of my way.

0:36:53 > 0:36:55OK.

0:36:55 > 0:37:01Let us raise the first glass to Tan.

0:37:01 > 0:37:05Now, Tan, she's had a real battle on her hands these past few months,

0:37:05 > 0:37:10but she's come out even stronger the other side, ain't she?

0:37:10 > 0:37:13It's great to see her back so fighting fit.

0:37:13 > 0:37:15Anyway, so here's to Tanya.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17ALL: Tanya!

0:37:20 > 0:37:24No, I'm all right. I like to keep a clear head when I'm playing cards.

0:37:24 > 0:37:26Yeah, playing Snap with Bobby don't count, though.

0:37:26 > 0:37:27Come on, don't knock the Beale.

0:37:27 > 0:37:30- Pulled a cracker like Mandy, didn't he?- Fair play to you.

0:37:30 > 0:37:33That's why you've got bags under your eyes, eh?

0:37:33 > 0:37:34Keeping you up at night?

0:37:34 > 0:37:37- Max ain't going to make it back in time.- Let's get started, then.

0:37:37 > 0:37:39Make it a bit more interesting.

0:37:39 > 0:37:44What do you say we play cash-only tonight, if that's OK?

0:37:44 > 0:37:45Right.

0:37:45 > 0:37:48I wouldn't expect anything less.

0:37:48 > 0:37:49And...

0:37:51 > 0:37:54..can't be too careful when there's Moons about, can you, eh?

0:37:54 > 0:37:57- No offence. - Very suspicious mind there, Derek.

0:37:57 > 0:37:59You're not worried about losing, are you?

0:37:59 > 0:38:03- Wouldn't be the first time you played dirty.- Lads, lads, come on. This is fine. It's OK, it's OK.

0:38:03 > 0:38:05DOOR OPENS

0:38:05 > 0:38:06Sorry, mate, we're closed.

0:38:11 > 0:38:14Well, you weren't going to start without me, was you?

0:38:14 > 0:38:15Grab a pew.

0:38:20 > 0:38:22Unless there's any objections?

0:38:22 > 0:38:26I thought we were going to play with yours, Derek. No?

0:38:26 > 0:38:27Alfie's the dealer.

0:38:27 > 0:38:29It's his choice.

0:38:44 > 0:38:46This is nice, isn't it?

0:38:47 > 0:38:49You fancied Syed?!

0:38:49 > 0:38:52- My Syed?- Yes, before I realised he was gay, OK?

0:38:52 > 0:38:55He's been out two years - get over it.

0:38:55 > 0:38:58- You know who I think's fit? - Michael Moon?

0:38:58 > 0:39:00You don't fancy Michael Moon?!

0:39:00 > 0:39:02Me? No! I just think he's a bit easy on the eye.

0:39:02 > 0:39:05That why you went out with his dad, get a bit closer to him? Yeah!

0:39:05 > 0:39:08# Carol and Michael sitting in a tree... #

0:39:08 > 0:39:12All right, all right, all right, can we go back to Tanya? Who is it? Who is it?

0:39:12 > 0:39:14Ray, Morgan's dad. What?

0:39:14 > 0:39:17And he's a chef, ain't he, so he's good with his hands.

0:39:17 > 0:39:19Well, Bianca should know.

0:39:19 > 0:39:21Well, that was years ago.

0:39:21 > 0:39:22Right, so if it's the chef thing,

0:39:22 > 0:39:25maybe you've got the hots for Ian, too?

0:39:25 > 0:39:29No! Oh, sorry, Mandy.

0:39:29 > 0:39:33Don't be. I know Ian's not an obvious choice but, believe it or not,

0:39:33 > 0:39:36- he's got a lot more going for him than you might think.- Really?

0:39:36 > 0:39:38Yeah, like his bank balance.

0:39:38 > 0:39:41No. He can actually be very sweet and very romantic.

0:39:41 > 0:39:42Ian Beale?

0:39:42 > 0:39:46He can't have been that bad, can he, if Jane was with him all them years.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49So, does anybody else think that Ray's fit?

0:39:49 > 0:39:50I do!

0:39:50 > 0:39:52Oh, Mrs Masmood!

0:39:52 > 0:39:53What? I have eyes!

0:39:53 > 0:39:55- Do you know who I'd pick?- Who?

0:39:58 > 0:40:01- Alfie.- What?

0:40:01 > 0:40:03Don't say anything to Kat, she would scratch me eyes out!

0:40:03 > 0:40:05- Are you serious?- Why not?

0:40:05 > 0:40:08He's a laugh, ain't he, he gets on with everyone,

0:40:08 > 0:40:10and he's got a naughty little twinkle in his eye.

0:40:10 > 0:40:14Actually, now you say it, I could...

0:40:14 > 0:40:17Oh, hands off. You bagsied Ray! You can't have all men.

0:40:17 > 0:40:20No, no, no-one bagsied anybody, yeah? That ain't how it works!

0:40:20 > 0:40:23- Anyway, Alfie is just... Alfie. That's it.- Too nice, no edge.

0:40:23 > 0:40:26Nothing wrong with a little bit of nice.

0:40:26 > 0:40:29Yeah, edge is over-rated when life throws you a curve-ball.

0:40:29 > 0:40:31Believe me.

0:40:31 > 0:40:35Right, so if you could choose one quality, what would it be?

0:40:35 > 0:40:38What's that word when someone's, like, always making an effort,

0:40:38 > 0:40:40and really spoils you?

0:40:40 > 0:40:43- Attentive. But not suffocating. - Yeah. Good with the kids, obviously.

0:40:43 > 0:40:45Sincere.

0:40:45 > 0:40:47Honesty's far better.

0:40:47 > 0:40:51Kind. Never underestimate kind.

0:40:51 > 0:40:56Faithfulness, like my Jim. Not some fly-by-night.

0:40:56 > 0:40:59Makes you think you're the only woman in a packed room.

0:40:59 > 0:41:02Someone, yeah, who is on your side,

0:41:02 > 0:41:06who just makes you feel like it's you against the rest of the world.

0:41:09 > 0:41:12- About, that, do you reckon? - Nah. Think big.

0:41:12 > 0:41:16I know what Bealey goes for. Bealey goes for blondes, don't you, eh?

0:41:16 > 0:41:17I'm more of a leg man, myself.

0:41:17 > 0:41:20Nah, I like a nice round rump, like Pippa Middleton.

0:41:20 > 0:41:22Yeah, she's the drop for me.

0:41:22 > 0:41:26Now, if Janine wears a wedding dress like that, happy days.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29Thought it was the bride who talked about the frocks, eh?

0:41:29 > 0:41:33You handling the flowers and the cakes as well, are you(?)

0:41:33 > 0:41:35Actually, there is a real art to a good wedding cake.

0:41:35 > 0:41:38What's happened with your marriage plans, Ian, eh? Got cold feet?

0:41:38 > 0:41:41Wouldn't be surprised. I've met classier alley cats.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43So where's your bird, Derek?

0:41:45 > 0:41:48Decent bird, though, she wants a bit of privacy, Derek.

0:41:48 > 0:41:52Not going to get very far crashing on his couch.

0:41:52 > 0:41:56Well, I'm pickier than most. How's Shirley? Bearing up, is she?

0:41:59 > 0:42:01I came here to play cards, not chat.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03Right, we'll let the girls do that.

0:42:03 > 0:42:06Wonder what they chat about at these book clubs anyway.

0:42:06 > 0:42:08Mind your own business. Anyway, not as long as Denise here.

0:42:08 > 0:42:10Don't turn this around onto me.

0:42:10 > 0:42:13Yeah, you can't ask her that, can you? How long?

0:42:13 > 0:42:16LAUGHTER

0:42:16 > 0:42:19Must you be so crude?

0:42:19 > 0:42:21Sorry, Dot.

0:42:21 > 0:42:24Give me a whisky and a fag over a fella any time.

0:42:24 > 0:42:29Denise, you want to get back out there, hon, or that is the future.

0:42:29 > 0:42:33You know what they say, though, innit? If you don't use it, you lose it.

0:42:33 > 0:42:35I'll get some more wine.

0:42:35 > 0:42:38Denise, I have an idea.

0:42:45 > 0:42:48- Can I give you a hand with anything? - No, you're all right.

0:42:48 > 0:42:49OK, look...

0:42:49 > 0:42:54OK, I know my lot and your lot haven't exactly seen eye to eye lately,

0:42:54 > 0:43:00and I really just want to say thank you for not kicking me out earlier.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02Anything to keep Dot happy.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06Oh, look, the truth is I owe you, don't I?

0:43:06 > 0:43:09Covering for me at the salon all those times I was having treatment.

0:43:09 > 0:43:11- No. It's fine.- No, it's not.

0:43:11 > 0:43:14- You must've thought I was a right lazy cow at the time! - Yes, I did.- Yeah.

0:43:14 > 0:43:19Only cos I didn't know you had cancer! I'm so sorry.

0:43:19 > 0:43:22It's all right, don't be stupid. You can say the word.

0:43:22 > 0:43:25I have got used to hearing it now. I've had to.

0:43:25 > 0:43:27You know what? I think you're amazing.

0:43:27 > 0:43:31- Behave!- I do. The way you've dealt with the illness

0:43:31 > 0:43:33and the treatment, and the pressure it's put on you and Max.

0:43:33 > 0:43:35What you saying?

0:43:37 > 0:43:39I'm dribbling on cos I'm drunk.

0:43:39 > 0:43:41Yeah, see. Join the club.

0:43:45 > 0:43:49I am not going on a blind date!

0:43:49 > 0:43:51But I have the perfect man in mind!

0:43:51 > 0:43:54Come on, we all know there's no such thing.

0:43:54 > 0:43:57Men! Men, men, men, men, men! It's all you've talked about all evening!

0:43:57 > 0:44:00You've got family and friends, ain't you?

0:44:00 > 0:44:02Ain't that enough?

0:44:02 > 0:44:06And you've got a future - not like poor Heather,

0:44:06 > 0:44:10'taken from us before her time. Brutally murdered.'

0:44:12 > 0:44:16Phil? You in or not? Phil?

0:44:20 > 0:44:23Not one of you has mentioned her all night.

0:44:24 > 0:44:27It's as if she's already been forgotten.

0:44:27 > 0:44:29Course not, Dot.

0:44:29 > 0:44:31It's just hard to know what to say.

0:44:32 > 0:44:34Why don't we have another toast?

0:44:36 > 0:44:38To Heather, absent friend.

0:44:38 > 0:44:39- ALL:- To Heather!

0:44:41 > 0:44:46Here, anyone know how to make that cocktail that she loved? What was it again? Woo woo!

0:44:46 > 0:44:48Roxy's the expert.

0:44:48 > 0:44:52Bring me all your booze. Just all of it!

0:44:52 > 0:44:53THEY LAUGH

0:45:01 > 0:45:03Forget it. I'm out.

0:45:05 > 0:45:07And I'll raise.

0:45:17 > 0:45:18Call.

0:45:29 > 0:45:30Nice one. Nicely played, sir.

0:45:30 > 0:45:32- Very impressive. - Did you say something?

0:45:32 > 0:45:34We both lost out tonight, eh, Derek?

0:45:34 > 0:45:39Well, someone's got to lose. Knowing when to pick your battles.

0:45:39 > 0:45:41It's been a pleasure.

0:45:41 > 0:45:44Pleasure was all mine.

0:45:47 > 0:45:50Now I've got the other stuff but I got no peach schnapps.

0:45:50 > 0:45:53Oh, we can't have any woo woos.

0:45:53 > 0:45:56- Nah, let's go to the Vic and get some!- It's past last orders.

0:45:56 > 0:46:00There's always the R&R. And Ray might have gone there for a nightcap.

0:46:00 > 0:46:02Bovvered.com?

0:46:03 > 0:46:05R&R, ladies?

0:46:05 > 0:46:08I think I've had enough fun for one night. And you...blind date?

0:46:08 > 0:46:10Oh, anything to shut you up!

0:46:10 > 0:46:14- I ain't coming, I'm skint. - Look, I'll get the first round! You're coming as well, Karen.

0:46:14 > 0:46:16- Who?- I want to get a kebab first.

0:46:16 > 0:46:18You joining us, Mum?

0:46:18 > 0:46:21No. I better get back, make sure Dot's OK.

0:46:25 > 0:46:28What's Max been telling you, about him and Tanya?

0:46:30 > 0:46:31Nothing.

0:46:31 > 0:46:35So what was all that about before with Tanya?

0:46:35 > 0:46:37You talking about them being under pressure.

0:46:37 > 0:46:38SHE LAUGHS NERVOUSLY

0:46:38 > 0:46:41You misheard me!

0:46:41 > 0:46:43Seriously, come on, as if Max is going to tell me

0:46:43 > 0:46:45anything about his marriage!

0:46:53 > 0:46:57Shall we break into my last fiver and drown our sorrows?

0:46:57 > 0:46:59Get back to Mandy. Where would you rather be, eh?

0:46:59 > 0:47:02Crying into a beer with me, or curled up on the sofa with her?

0:47:02 > 0:47:05- If Kat was around, I know what I'd choose.- Yeah, see you later.

0:47:05 > 0:47:07See you, mate, take care.

0:47:07 > 0:47:10Lucky Michael told me about the game, otherwise I'd have missed out.

0:47:12 > 0:47:13Listen, Phil,

0:47:13 > 0:47:16about this week's rent.

0:47:16 > 0:47:18It'll be tricky, especially after tonight.

0:47:18 > 0:47:21Well, that's the deal and you need to stick to it.

0:47:21 > 0:47:24Don't want people round here thinking I'm going soft, do I?

0:47:27 > 0:47:29MAX WHISTLES

0:47:34 > 0:47:35Where's Tanya?

0:47:35 > 0:47:41Out. The coast is clear for you and Roxy.

0:47:44 > 0:47:46She told me everything.

0:47:46 > 0:47:50Then do you want to tell me? Cos I don't know what you're talking about.

0:47:50 > 0:47:53You two must have been getting very cosy.

0:47:53 > 0:47:58How else would she know about your recent marital problems?

0:47:58 > 0:48:03I ain't got a clue, Cora. Probably been gossiping with Jack.

0:48:04 > 0:48:09It all makes sense now, how you've been doting on Tanya.

0:48:09 > 0:48:12Why wouldn't I dote over her, Cora? She needs looking after.

0:48:12 > 0:48:15Or you've got a guilty conscience.

0:48:17 > 0:48:19All right, you want the truth, do you?

0:48:20 > 0:48:23Roxy made a move, and I knocked her back.

0:48:23 > 0:48:26Don't surprise me she's trying to stir things up,

0:48:26 > 0:48:28cos she's a woman scorned.

0:48:30 > 0:48:32That it, yeah? We done?

0:48:33 > 0:48:36Dinner's getting cold.

0:48:38 > 0:48:41Get your phone out. You're going to get her over here.

0:48:41 > 0:48:43Then we'll see who's lying.

0:48:52 > 0:48:54PHONE BEEPS

0:48:54 > 0:48:58Hold on. I've got to go. I've got to go.

0:48:58 > 0:49:01No, no, no, I'll see you later! Go, go.

0:49:01 > 0:49:04- Why don't you go with her? - Baby! I've missed you!

0:49:04 > 0:49:07Hold on, you promised you'd never go to McKlunky's!

0:49:07 > 0:49:10Oh. Umm... I'll make it up to you.

0:49:12 > 0:49:15Hey, Mandy's told us all about the real Beale.

0:49:15 > 0:49:18Everything, yeah! Pretty shocking stuff.

0:49:18 > 0:49:22Oh, no, not about that!

0:49:22 > 0:49:26All have a good laugh, did you?! I should've let you leave yesterday.

0:49:28 > 0:49:34Oh, Ian! It happens to every man once in a while. Get over it!

0:49:39 > 0:49:43Ian! Ian!

0:49:46 > 0:49:48What's so urgent?

0:49:53 > 0:49:56Cora's convinced me and you are having some passionate affair.

0:49:56 > 0:49:59Do the decent thing and put her straight, will you?

0:49:59 > 0:50:00Please.

0:50:00 > 0:50:06Then maybe she'll stop these stupid ideas and go back to watching her Howard's Way box-set.

0:50:06 > 0:50:10Cora, I've already told you, yeah. We've been through this.

0:50:10 > 0:50:12Tell her the truth, Roxy.

0:50:12 > 0:50:13The truth?

0:50:16 > 0:50:19All right, fine. You want to know the truth, yeah?

0:50:28 > 0:50:31Me and Max, we talked a few times, OK?

0:50:31 > 0:50:34I was feeling low, after everything that happened with Amy...

0:50:34 > 0:50:35Spare me the self pity.

0:50:37 > 0:50:39I flirted with him.

0:50:39 > 0:50:43OK. More than that, I offered it up on a plate.

0:50:43 > 0:50:46Max wasn't interested, so I backed off. End of.

0:50:46 > 0:50:51What sort of shameless scrubber throws herself at a bloke

0:50:51 > 0:50:53whose wife's getting over cancer?!

0:50:53 > 0:50:57I know. I know, I'm sorry, OK.

0:50:57 > 0:50:58Coming here tonight, talking to Tanya,

0:50:58 > 0:51:00it made me realise what an idiot I've been.

0:51:00 > 0:51:03And I swear to you, I will never try it again.

0:51:03 > 0:51:05Too right you won't.

0:51:05 > 0:51:11Cos if you do, I'll drag you through the square by those cheap extensions of yours

0:51:11 > 0:51:14and let everyone know exactly what you are.

0:51:14 > 0:51:17Now get out.

0:51:33 > 0:51:34I don't know, Alf.

0:51:36 > 0:51:39I'm not sure if I'm comfortable with a Mitchell on the firm.

0:51:39 > 0:51:43No, Derek. Derek, you can trust Billy, I promise you.

0:51:43 > 0:51:45I'll have to take your word for that.

0:51:45 > 0:51:47So, why the change of heart?

0:51:49 > 0:51:52Well, try and make back some of the money I lost tonight. And then some.

0:51:57 > 0:51:59- I'll be in touch. - I'll let you out.

0:52:20 > 0:52:24Even a tart like Roxy Mitchell needs some sort of encouragement.

0:52:24 > 0:52:27Something tells me I'm only getting half the story.

0:52:27 > 0:52:31Yeah? You believe what you want.

0:52:31 > 0:52:36I won't have my daughter put through any more pain.

0:52:36 > 0:52:41Never stop being grateful she's still here, Max.

0:52:41 > 0:52:42Never.

0:52:48 > 0:52:51So...?

0:52:54 > 0:52:56OK. So...

0:52:58 > 0:53:00..I started a thing with a married man.

0:53:03 > 0:53:05Are you judging me?! I knew you were going to judge me!

0:53:05 > 0:53:09No, Rox, no. Look at my face.

0:53:09 > 0:53:12- Look, come on - no judgement.- Yeah, well, it might be your poker face.

0:53:12 > 0:53:17- Weren't much good tonight, the amount of cash I lost. - Oh, no, you didn't! How much?

0:53:17 > 0:53:20Stop changing the subject. About this fella. Come on.

0:53:24 > 0:53:28OK. We backed out before anything happened. Well, he did.

0:53:29 > 0:53:32And then tonight, I got this text and...I should've ignored it.

0:53:32 > 0:53:35But instead, I went rushing round to see him...

0:53:37 > 0:53:41..and I made such an idiot of myself.

0:53:41 > 0:53:44And I didn't even like him that way anyway, yeah.

0:53:46 > 0:53:51And now, I've been rejected by a man I don't even like. How sad is that?

0:53:54 > 0:53:57Are you comforting me, or what?!

0:53:57 > 0:54:00Rox, so you got a knock-back. So what, sweetheart?

0:54:00 > 0:54:02No big deal.

0:54:02 > 0:54:05There's a million and one fellas out there that would love to meet

0:54:05 > 0:54:08the East End's most lovable unnatural blonde. Eh?

0:54:08 > 0:54:10SHE LAUGHS

0:54:10 > 0:54:16It's not just that. It's, like, when I was in Ibiza, I was,

0:54:16 > 0:54:18like, the original party girl and I loved it.

0:54:18 > 0:54:20I really did.

0:54:20 > 0:54:23And now, it's like I'm the only one who's trying to be naughty,

0:54:23 > 0:54:26I'm the only one who's trying to keep up the party.

0:54:26 > 0:54:28And everyone's just gone home.

0:54:28 > 0:54:31Then let 'em go home. You stay at the party!

0:54:31 > 0:54:35With who?! With who? Christian's all loved up, Ronnie's...

0:54:37 > 0:54:40And those lot, they are not...

0:54:40 > 0:54:42They are not my mates.

0:54:42 > 0:54:44Excuse me, sister?

0:54:44 > 0:54:48What am I? Chopped liver or something?

0:54:48 > 0:54:53You can be Cinderella, I'll be your prince. I can take you to the ball, can't I?

0:54:53 > 0:54:54HE SIGHS

0:54:54 > 0:54:56What a pair we are, eh?

0:54:58 > 0:55:01OK, come on, then - how much did you lose?

0:55:01 > 0:55:03Oh, don't. Just...well...

0:55:03 > 0:55:06enough to keep Phil and the taxman on my back.

0:55:09 > 0:55:11You worried?

0:55:11 > 0:55:14No, no, I'll tell you why. Because I have a plan.

0:55:15 > 0:55:19See, now I'm not worried. I wasn't worried.

0:55:19 > 0:55:21Because you may be old,

0:55:21 > 0:55:25but you are the magnificent Alfie Moon,

0:55:25 > 0:55:27and you always come up trumps. You do.

0:55:27 > 0:55:31And you are the lovely Roxy Mitchell. And I promise you, sweetheart,

0:55:31 > 0:55:36you may think you'll never meet the right bloke but I promise you will.

0:55:36 > 0:55:38And when you do - you'll know all about it.

0:55:38 > 0:55:42And you will live happily ever after.

0:55:42 > 0:55:44I do love you, Grandad. You know that, don't you?

0:55:44 > 0:55:47Oi. Stop with the blubbing, you'll make your mascara run.

0:55:47 > 0:55:48And mine as well. Come here.

0:55:48 > 0:55:53Come here, you can't go home looking like that with your panda eyes.

0:55:53 > 0:55:57Look at me. Clean 'em up like that. There we go.

0:55:57 > 0:56:00Listen, you're going to be fine, all right?

0:56:00 > 0:56:03Yeah. But I do mean it, though, you know?

0:56:03 > 0:56:05I love you.

0:56:05 > 0:56:08You're always on my side, aren't you?

0:56:39 > 0:56:41- ALFIE:- # And a hundred lonely housewives

0:56:41 > 0:56:44# Clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts

0:56:44 > 0:56:46# Hanging out their old love letters

0:56:46 > 0:56:48# On a line to dry

0:56:48 > 0:56:51# It's enough to make you stop believing

0:56:51 > 0:56:52# When tears come fast and furious

0:56:52 > 0:56:54# In a town called Malice. #

0:56:54 > 0:56:58Yeah, I know, I've got a loan with you already.

0:56:58 > 0:57:01Well, the thing is, I need a new telly,

0:57:01 > 0:57:03so I just thought I could increase the loan?

0:57:06 > 0:57:08Oh, right.

0:57:08 > 0:57:10So, you have to pay the old one off first, yeah.

0:57:11 > 0:57:12OK.

0:57:15 > 0:57:16Warm me up, Alfie.

0:57:16 > 0:57:18- All right.- Afternoon.

0:57:19 > 0:57:22- There you go.- Lovely.

0:57:24 > 0:57:27I thought we'd just go over the details for later.

0:57:27 > 0:57:28Yeah.

0:57:28 > 0:57:32Well, the job is as straightforward as it seems, ain't it?

0:57:32 > 0:57:35We wait for Trev the drayman to turn his back

0:57:35 > 0:57:37and then we steal the booze from his van.

0:57:37 > 0:57:41- 12 grand's worth of booze. - Yeah, yeah, I know, I know.

0:57:41 > 0:57:44Well, like you say, it sounds straightforward enough.

0:57:45 > 0:57:47What?

0:57:47 > 0:57:48- Nervous?- N-No.

0:57:49 > 0:57:51Yeah.

0:57:51 > 0:57:54No, listen, I've got convictions, and I stand to lose everything.

0:57:54 > 0:57:56And I don't just mean the pub.

0:57:56 > 0:57:58Kat's not the most forgiving of women.

0:57:58 > 0:58:01There's no backing out now, Alf.

0:58:01 > 0:58:04Remember, I'm not the most forgiving of men.

0:58:11 > 0:58:13You've no idea what's in them, have you?

0:58:13 > 0:58:15Winston said it's all good stuff.

0:58:15 > 0:58:18Said the supermarket only chucks it out cos the labels are torn.

0:58:18 > 0:58:21That lot's never seen labels. "Dodgy" is written all over 'em.

0:58:21 > 0:58:23Beggars can't be choosers.

0:58:25 > 0:58:28Oh, last night, I had this really great dream.

0:58:28 > 0:58:30Can't remember all the details,

0:58:30 > 0:58:33but that bloke from Captain America was in it.

0:58:33 > 0:58:37And I know I was having a really good time.

0:58:37 > 0:58:39Then I woke up. Back to reality, eh?

0:58:39 > 0:58:42Reality's not that bad. Anyway, you've still got a great figure.

0:58:42 > 0:58:45Yeah, I've had this skirt for years, who needs money?

0:58:45 > 0:58:48We're better off than some and you know what? KIDS SHOUTING

0:58:48 > 0:58:51I've been there before, dreading the post, the knock at the door,

0:58:51 > 0:58:55starving myself so that you lot can have dinner. Things get better.

0:58:55 > 0:58:57If we don't get a new telly, the kids will kill each other.

0:58:57 > 0:58:59Or I am going to kill both of them!

0:58:59 > 0:59:02I never get to watch what I want!

0:59:02 > 0:59:06Oh! My head is banging from last night.

0:59:06 > 0:59:07Yeah, tell me about it.

0:59:07 > 0:59:10Interesting conversations, though.

0:59:10 > 0:59:13Oh, sorry, we don't do oysters or what was it? Rhino horn.

0:59:13 > 0:59:15Meant to perk you up a bit, innit?

0:59:15 > 0:59:17That meant to be funny?

0:59:17 > 0:59:20Ian's face when you blurted it out in front of everyone.

0:59:20 > 0:59:23Yeah, well, least I've got a fella, eh?

0:59:23 > 0:59:26Who you got keeping you warm at night?

0:59:26 > 0:59:30- Easy, Mands.- Looking good, Kim. - Thank you, thank you.

0:59:30 > 0:59:31Ta-da!

0:59:31 > 0:59:32What do you think?

0:59:32 > 0:59:36I take it you're trying to impress someone.

0:59:36 > 0:59:37And if I was, would it work?

0:59:37 > 0:59:40Some might say, you've got all your goodies on a plate.

0:59:40 > 0:59:43But you, being my ever-loving sister, you would say...

0:59:43 > 0:59:45You look lovely.

0:59:45 > 0:59:47Don't I? I know.

0:59:47 > 0:59:49So, this is all for Ray's benefit, I take it?

0:59:49 > 0:59:51Ray? No.

0:59:51 > 0:59:53Oh, come on, I saw your face last night

0:59:53 > 0:59:55when everyone said how fit he was.

0:59:55 > 0:59:58Well, they need to realise that he's desperate to get my attention.

0:59:58 > 1:00:02He's going to be looking out of his little hatch all night,

1:00:02 > 1:00:06watching me behind the bar, lighting up the pub with the life,

1:00:06 > 1:00:08the soul, curves, booty.

1:00:08 > 1:00:11I guarantee, by closing, he'll be putty in my hands.

1:00:11 > 1:00:13Oh, so, you do want him to be putty then?

1:00:13 > 1:00:17- I'm getting lost whether you want him or not. - No, I never said I wanted him.

1:00:17 > 1:00:20But that's not to say that I don't want him wanting me.

1:00:20 > 1:00:23You see? Let me tell you a little something, yeah?

1:00:23 > 1:00:28It is better to be wanted than to be had, yeah?

1:00:28 > 1:00:31You might want to think about that a few times, yeah?

1:00:31 > 1:00:33Pay you later.

1:00:34 > 1:00:37You've not had an easy couple of weeks, have you?

1:00:37 > 1:00:39No.

1:00:39 > 1:00:41I drove myself over to see Jim today

1:00:41 > 1:00:46and I was bracing myself all the way to tell him about Heather, you know?

1:00:46 > 1:00:48And when I got there, I realised I couldn't

1:00:48 > 1:00:51because what does he need to know for?

1:00:51 > 1:00:52He don't need upsetting.

1:00:54 > 1:00:57Anyway, what's bothering you?

1:00:57 > 1:01:00I feel stupid now. Look, I should have thought.

1:01:00 > 1:01:02Yeah, you should.

1:01:02 > 1:01:05But you can be a bit selfish, Ian.

1:01:05 > 1:01:08Anyway, you're here now, might as well tell me.

1:01:10 > 1:01:11I feel old.

1:01:11 > 1:01:13Oh. Ha-ha.

1:01:13 > 1:01:16Must be awful being in your early 40s.

1:01:16 > 1:01:18I'm not going anywhere in life.

1:01:18 > 1:01:21I mean, I had dreams and ambitions.

1:01:21 > 1:01:25I mean, look at me now, Dot, I'm running the stall that my dad ran

1:01:25 > 1:01:28- and that his father ran before him...- Drink your tea up.

1:01:28 > 1:01:30- What?- I can't listen to no more.

1:01:30 > 1:01:33You should count yourself lucky you're alive.

1:01:33 > 1:01:36- Dot, I'm sorry... - If you're looking for sympathy,

1:01:36 > 1:01:38not me, not today.

1:01:38 > 1:01:41I mean, I was supposed to being going to church tonight,

1:01:41 > 1:01:43you know, it's Maundy Thursday

1:01:43 > 1:01:46and I couldn't face telling Jim about Heather

1:01:46 > 1:01:50and I can't face going to church and I can't even talk to Jesus.

1:01:53 > 1:01:56I'm afraid...you're knocking at the wrong door.

1:02:02 > 1:02:05- Argh.- He seen me earlier.- Yeah?

1:02:05 > 1:02:08- Checked that I was all right for tonight.- Yeah? What did you say?

1:02:08 > 1:02:10What do you think I said? I'm skint, ain't I?

1:02:10 > 1:02:13Thing I don't get is you agreeing to be his dogsbody.

1:02:13 > 1:02:15Whoa, stop. I'm no-one's dogsbody.

1:02:15 > 1:02:17Oh, right, so you're partners now, are you?

1:02:17 > 1:02:19Come on, Alfie, don't kid yourself.

1:02:19 > 1:02:22I mean, how much money are you actually making out of all of this?

1:02:22 > 1:02:25Or should I say how will Derek let you keep?

1:02:25 > 1:02:27Enough to pay rent for the next six months

1:02:27 > 1:02:29and keep the tax man off my back, all right?

1:02:29 > 1:02:32I don't know if you've noticed but the Vic is hardly standing room only.

1:02:32 > 1:02:35Only at lunchtime, hardly enough people to start a darts team.

1:02:35 > 1:02:38I'm just trying to claw back any profit wherever I can.

1:02:38 > 1:02:41And you ain't got any ideas of your own, eh? You?

1:02:41 > 1:02:43Alfie Moon?

1:02:43 > 1:02:45BILLY SCOFFS You surprise me.

1:02:49 > 1:02:53Ladies and gentlemen, Kimberley Fox is in the building.

1:02:53 > 1:02:54Kim. Ray wants you.

1:02:54 > 1:02:57Tell me something I don't already know.

1:02:59 > 1:03:03R&B MUSIC PLAYS

1:03:07 > 1:03:10Ooh, hello, you're looking very filet mignon today.

1:03:10 > 1:03:14- What?- Filet mignon, the best steak in the world.

1:03:15 > 1:03:17You saying I look like a bit of meat?

1:03:17 > 1:03:19- HE LAUGHS - Look, Roxy said you wanted me.

1:03:19 > 1:03:23Yeah, listen, I need some help in the kitchen tonight. Alfie said you're it.

1:03:23 > 1:03:25I don't think so, young man.

1:03:25 > 1:03:27Cos, tonight, I'll be lighting up the pub out there.

1:03:27 > 1:03:31- Ooh, I'm afraid not, babe.- But... - No, no, no, no time for buts, babe.

1:03:31 > 1:03:33That stuff over there needs filleting.

1:03:33 > 1:03:37And don't throw away the heads, we'll be boiling them for stock.

1:03:37 > 1:03:38Right, so, you both get to pick a can

1:03:38 > 1:03:41and then, whatever's inside, that's your dinner.

1:03:41 > 1:03:45What? Go on, just pick. Who else gets to have surprise food?

1:03:45 > 1:03:47- Other poor people?- Just pick.

1:03:50 > 1:03:53I wonder what this could be, then?

1:03:53 > 1:03:55Could it be spaghetti hoops?

1:03:55 > 1:03:58Or beans and sausages?

1:03:58 > 1:04:00It is...

1:04:00 > 1:04:02Custard.

1:04:03 > 1:04:04Yummy.

1:04:04 > 1:04:10Right, this one... feels a bit more lumpy. Guess what?

1:04:10 > 1:04:12- Dog food?- Don't be stupid.

1:04:12 > 1:04:14I'm not, for all we know, it could be.

1:04:14 > 1:04:16I'm not eating dog food.

1:04:16 > 1:04:17As if it's dog food!

1:04:19 > 1:04:22Well, I wonder what this is, then.

1:04:24 > 1:04:25Mmm.

1:04:27 > 1:04:31Smells delicious, whatever it is.

1:04:36 > 1:04:38Ian...

1:04:39 > 1:04:41..can we talk? You know, about...?

1:04:44 > 1:04:46I don't want to, if that's OK.

1:04:46 > 1:04:47SHE SIGHS

1:04:47 > 1:04:48Well, I do, all right?

1:04:48 > 1:04:51Look, see these?

1:04:51 > 1:04:54D'you know what keeps them up there? A good bra.

1:04:54 > 1:04:59Without it, they'd be a lot lower and you wouldn't have been so keen.

1:04:59 > 1:05:03- We're all getting older.- I don't want to talk about it, all right?

1:05:03 > 1:05:06Which is why we have to compensate.

1:05:06 > 1:05:08So...

1:05:08 > 1:05:09I bought you these.

1:05:10 > 1:05:12They're herbal and they work, well, so I'm told.

1:05:12 > 1:05:15You just take one and 40 minutes later...

1:05:15 > 1:05:19I don't need those, OK? It was a one-off, I'm fine.

1:05:21 > 1:05:23OK, good, well, um...

1:05:24 > 1:05:26..shouldn't be any problems tonight, then.

1:05:27 > 1:05:29Tonight?

1:05:31 > 1:05:33Mandy, look, I've got to do the VAT and stuff.

1:05:33 > 1:05:38- I'm not going to be in the mood after that.- Great(!)

1:05:38 > 1:05:40No, I mean, that's just great, Ian.

1:05:40 > 1:05:42This is it, is it?

1:05:42 > 1:05:46You just avoid the situation and I get frustrated?

1:05:46 > 1:05:49It's like we've been married 30 years.

1:05:49 > 1:05:50SHE SIGHS

1:05:50 > 1:05:52You know what? Get a grip Ian, all right?

1:05:52 > 1:05:55Because if there is a problem, then sort it,

1:05:55 > 1:05:58cos I for one - I need some excitement in my life.

1:06:05 > 1:06:07No-one's even ordered fish.

1:06:07 > 1:06:09It's not for tonight, it's for tomorrow.

1:06:09 > 1:06:11It's a big day for fish, it's Good Friday.

1:06:11 > 1:06:14Then, why couldn't you do it in the morning?

1:06:14 > 1:06:17Probably, since I get paid more per hour than you do,

1:06:17 > 1:06:18it's cheaper if you do it.

1:06:23 > 1:06:27- OK, kids, here you go. - Thank you.- Thank you.

1:06:28 > 1:06:30Are you calling me cheap?

1:06:30 > 1:06:33- Er, what are they doing here? - Eating.

1:06:33 > 1:06:36Look, they were hungry, all right? Don't make a fuss.

1:06:43 > 1:06:46- You all right, B? - Alfie, you seen my kids?

1:06:46 > 1:06:48Erm, the kids?

1:06:48 > 1:06:49Alfie?

1:06:49 > 1:06:52Yeah, yeah, listen, they're just in the hallway,

1:06:52 > 1:06:54having something to eat.

1:06:54 > 1:06:56- Yeah, I bet they are. - No, they're fine, darling.

1:06:57 > 1:07:00B. Erm.

1:07:00 > 1:07:05- Tiff? Morgan? - Bianca, all right. Don't, don't...

1:07:05 > 1:07:06I offered.

1:07:09 > 1:07:11- It's just chicken and chips, you know?- Yeah.

1:07:11 > 1:07:13Thanks.

1:07:14 > 1:07:16Any time.

1:07:17 > 1:07:19You know, whatever you want,

1:07:19 > 1:07:21whenever you fancy some for yourself.

1:07:24 > 1:07:25Look, erm...

1:07:27 > 1:07:30- ..I found a letter in Morgan's school bag.- Mm-hm.

1:07:31 > 1:07:34- He's been picked for the football team.- Yeah?

1:07:38 > 1:07:39- Nice.- So, if you want to help us out,

1:07:39 > 1:07:42he does need a new pair of football boots.

1:07:42 > 1:07:44Yeah, course. Yeah, no problem.

1:07:45 > 1:07:49Look, maybe I could watch him play sometime?

1:07:49 > 1:07:52Yeah, look, you can take him training, if you like.

1:07:52 > 1:07:54I'd really like that. Thank you.

1:07:55 > 1:07:56Is that...?

1:07:58 > 1:08:00What?

1:08:00 > 1:08:01That skirt.

1:08:01 > 1:08:04The one you wore the night we met.

1:08:04 > 1:08:06What if it is?

1:08:06 > 1:08:10I remember it. I mean, you looked proper hot in it.

1:08:10 > 1:08:12- You still do.- Yeah?

1:08:14 > 1:08:17Well, you've let yourself go.

1:08:17 > 1:08:20Come on, kids, let's go. Home.

1:08:21 > 1:08:24- Thank you.- You're welcome, Son.

1:08:24 > 1:08:28- It's disgusting.- Oh, come on. - Thanks.- Greens are good for you.

1:08:30 > 1:08:33- So, where's Billy?- He can't make it. - What do you mean, "Can't make it"?

1:08:33 > 1:08:36Well, he's got a hospital appointment.

1:08:36 > 1:08:38No, it's not him, it's his granddaughter.

1:08:38 > 1:08:41She's, you know, she's got to do a scan

1:08:41 > 1:08:43or one of these 'natal classes or something.

1:08:43 > 1:08:4715 and up the duff. That's what's wrong with this country.

1:08:47 > 1:08:51I thought he was looking a bit shifty this afternoon.

1:08:51 > 1:08:55- What's his game? - No, no, no, no. It's not a game.

1:08:55 > 1:08:59- He's doing right by the girl.- Yeah.

1:08:59 > 1:09:02Well, so who are you going to get? Better be someone we can trust.

1:09:03 > 1:09:07Yeah, well, I don't know about trust, but I've got someone in mind,

1:09:07 > 1:09:11but he might have done a few dodgy things in his time.

1:09:11 > 1:09:13Who?

1:09:14 > 1:09:16- You.- Me?

1:09:17 > 1:09:19Yeah.

1:09:19 > 1:09:22It's like I said earlier, right?

1:09:22 > 1:09:25I can't afford anything to go wrong any more.

1:09:25 > 1:09:26Neither can you, Derek.

1:09:26 > 1:09:29You know, neither of us like prison food, do we?

1:09:31 > 1:09:33So, erm, it's your call.

1:09:37 > 1:09:39It's her fault you're being like this.

1:09:40 > 1:09:42No, it's me.

1:09:44 > 1:09:46WHY are you being like this?

1:09:46 > 1:09:48Look, I'm sorry, Lucy, if my life annoys you,

1:09:48 > 1:09:51but that is what it is, OK? It's my life.

1:09:51 > 1:09:54You're only going to be here for another year or so,

1:09:54 > 1:09:56and you'll make your first million

1:09:56 > 1:09:59or find some nice fella and drive off into the sunset.

1:09:59 > 1:10:00Me?

1:10:00 > 1:10:03I'm stuck here till they cart me off to the cemetery.

1:10:03 > 1:10:04You know the really sad thing?

1:10:04 > 1:10:06I even know where they'll bury me.

1:10:06 > 1:10:09Little plot between my dad and my gran.

1:10:09 > 1:10:11It's so close, I could probably walk to it.

1:10:11 > 1:10:14Dad, you need to snap out of this.

1:10:14 > 1:10:17Think of Bobby.

1:10:17 > 1:10:18What about Bobby?

1:10:18 > 1:10:21Well, do you think he wants to see you like this?

1:10:21 > 1:10:24- Dad, you're his hero.- Am I?

1:10:24 > 1:10:26Yeah, of course you are.

1:10:26 > 1:10:28Look, you need to open your eyes

1:10:28 > 1:10:30and realise it all went wrong with Mandy.

1:10:30 > 1:10:32No.

1:10:32 > 1:10:34No, it was going wrong before that.

1:10:36 > 1:10:38I guess it went wrong when Jane left.

1:10:38 > 1:10:40Do you miss her?

1:10:41 > 1:10:42No.

1:10:44 > 1:10:45Oh, I don't know.

1:10:46 > 1:10:48I don't know, OK? Maybe I do.

1:10:49 > 1:10:53Tell you what I have missed, though, and I've realised it this week,

1:10:53 > 1:10:55I've missed being in the caff.

1:10:55 > 1:10:58It's... Being back at the heart of everything, it was...

1:11:00 > 1:11:01Yeah, that's it.

1:11:01 > 1:11:05- What?- I need to get the caff back off Phil.

1:11:05 > 1:11:06- I doubt he's going to sell it. - He will.

1:11:06 > 1:11:09If I make him a good enough offer, he will, he's bound to.

1:11:09 > 1:11:12Lucy, that is what it is. We need the caff back -

1:11:12 > 1:11:15it'll give us back the excitement that we've missed.

1:11:15 > 1:11:18Yes, well, you've seen now, haven't you? And I'm fine.

1:11:18 > 1:11:21Yes, but, Dot, it's at times like this that you need...

1:11:21 > 1:11:24What? Your friends? Is that what you was going to say?

1:11:24 > 1:11:26We ain't friends, are we?

1:11:26 > 1:11:28We're neighbours. I always say hello.

1:11:28 > 1:11:31Well, Heather was a true friend.

1:11:31 > 1:11:35We shared things, you know, happy times, sad times.

1:11:35 > 1:11:38There was more of the sad times than happy times,

1:11:38 > 1:11:40but that's what friends are for, aren't they?

1:11:40 > 1:11:42And now, she's dead

1:11:42 > 1:11:46and you all feel bad and you want to help.

1:11:46 > 1:11:48Well, I'm sorry, but it's a shame

1:11:48 > 1:11:51that you didn't help her when she was alive.

1:11:52 > 1:11:54Fine. Next time, I won't bother.

1:11:59 > 1:12:00Oh, dear.

1:12:02 > 1:12:06KNOCK AT DOOR Who is it now? What do you want?

1:12:10 > 1:12:14- Oh, hello, Vicar. - Mrs Branning, is this a good time?

1:12:14 > 1:12:18Oh. Yes, yes, of course, of course.

1:12:18 > 1:12:21- Is your sister...? - What, Rose? No, she ain't here.

1:12:21 > 1:12:24- Is it her you wanted to see? - Oh, no, no, I've come to see you.

1:12:24 > 1:12:29Oh, well, what can I do for you?

1:12:29 > 1:12:31Well, you can make me a cup of tea

1:12:31 > 1:12:34and then maybe find me a nice slice of your cake

1:12:34 > 1:12:38and then run me a bowl of tepid water.

1:13:00 > 1:13:03So, where is he, then? You sure you got the right place?

1:13:04 > 1:13:07Yeah. Yeah, yeah, course I have.

1:13:07 > 1:13:10This is weird, cos, well,

1:13:10 > 1:13:12Trev, he text to say that he was here, you know.

1:13:17 > 1:13:19Nah.

1:13:19 > 1:13:22Nah, something's not right. I can sense it.

1:13:22 > 1:13:25Let's leave it, Alfie. Alfie, leave it. Come on, pull off.

1:13:25 > 1:13:27- Pull off.- No, no, no, look.

1:13:29 > 1:13:31There he is. That's him.

1:13:36 > 1:13:40- All right? Trevor, this is... - Whoa, whoa, whoa.

1:13:40 > 1:13:42So, where's the van?

1:13:42 > 1:13:44I've just got a gun stuck in my face.

1:13:44 > 1:13:45No!

1:13:45 > 1:13:48- Who by?- Couple of blokes.

1:13:48 > 1:13:50Car pulled up, I thought it was you.

1:13:50 > 1:13:53Next thing, they order me out the van, driving off with it.

1:13:53 > 1:13:55- It was only a few minutes ago. - Are you all right?

1:13:55 > 1:13:59Course he's all right. He's alive, ain't he? I don't believe this.

1:14:00 > 1:14:03No. I told you something wasn't right.

1:14:03 > 1:14:06You know who this is down to, don't you?

1:14:07 > 1:14:09Who?

1:14:09 > 1:14:11Phil Mitchell, hmm?

1:14:11 > 1:14:12Eh?

1:14:12 > 1:14:14This has got his name written all over it.

1:14:14 > 1:14:17Hospital appointment. I knew we couldn't trust Billy.

1:14:17 > 1:14:20No, no, Billy...Billy's fine.

1:14:20 > 1:14:24- Phil, maybe. - There's no maybes about it, Alfie.

1:14:24 > 1:14:26I told him the line was drawn.

1:14:27 > 1:14:30Well, now, he's just crossed it.

1:14:32 > 1:14:35You know, you've weighed very heavily on my heart,

1:14:35 > 1:14:37these last few days.

1:14:37 > 1:14:40I had hoped you'd come to church as planned.

1:14:40 > 1:14:42Yes, well, I've been busy.

1:14:42 > 1:14:44Of course. So I thought to myself,

1:14:44 > 1:14:48"If she can't come to the church, the church shall come to her."

1:14:48 > 1:14:50But there is no need.

1:14:50 > 1:14:54Well, I'm sorry to disagree with you, Mrs Branning, but I think there is.

1:14:54 > 1:14:58If there was any time in your life to let your faith slip,

1:14:58 > 1:15:01- it certainly isn't now.- I know.

1:15:01 > 1:15:05Friendship is one of the most important things in anyone's life.

1:15:05 > 1:15:08Jesus knows what it was like to lose a close friend.

1:15:08 > 1:15:11Not in such circumstances as yourself,

1:15:11 > 1:15:14but tragic nonetheless.

1:15:15 > 1:15:16Yes, I suppose.

1:15:16 > 1:15:18And on this very night,

1:15:18 > 1:15:23the night he was betrayed in the Garden of Gethsemane,

1:15:23 > 1:15:26betrayed by someone he loved.

1:15:27 > 1:15:29- Yes.- So...

1:15:29 > 1:15:31let me wash your feet.

1:15:31 > 1:15:34No. No, I ain't worthy.

1:15:34 > 1:15:38It's a Maundy Thursday tradition, Mrs Branning.

1:15:39 > 1:15:41Yes, but...

1:15:41 > 1:15:43I ain't got pretty feet.

1:15:43 > 1:15:48- Mrs Branning, I'm sure they're beautiful in Jesus's eyes.- Oh.

1:15:57 > 1:15:59The real reason you were feeding the kids

1:15:59 > 1:16:01- is that you want to get back with the mother.- What?!

1:16:01 > 1:16:04- Kimberley, Kimberley, Kimberley. - Don't "Kimberley" me.

1:16:04 > 1:16:07- Oooh, I like you jealous. - I'm not jealous.

1:16:07 > 1:16:11You know, babe, it's perfectly fine, you know. Totally understandable.

1:16:11 > 1:16:14Just don't take it out on the fish, yeah?

1:16:14 > 1:16:17No, babe, you've got to cut it through, don't hack at it.

1:16:17 > 1:16:19- Here, let me. Come on. - I don't need showing.

1:16:19 > 1:16:21- Argh!- What?

1:16:21 > 1:16:23My finger!

1:16:23 > 1:16:24Ahhh! Ahhh!

1:16:24 > 1:16:28- Emergency! Emergency! Help! - What? What? Kim?

1:16:28 > 1:16:31- I didn't mean to, it was an accident.- What was?

1:16:31 > 1:16:33- Kim!- I cut off Ray's finger!

1:16:33 > 1:16:35What?!

1:16:35 > 1:16:40"After they had eaten, Jesus poured water into a basin

1:16:40 > 1:16:42"and began to wash his disciples' feet.

1:16:43 > 1:16:49"Afterwards, he dried them with a towel."

1:16:49 > 1:16:53"Simon Peter says unto him, 'Lord, not my feet only,

1:16:53 > 1:16:57" 'but also my hands and my head.' "

1:16:58 > 1:17:03She...she... she was the sweetest girl.

1:17:03 > 1:17:06She wouldn't hurt a fly.

1:17:06 > 1:17:09She struggled all her life...

1:17:09 > 1:17:11but she had the biggest smile.

1:17:13 > 1:17:14And that little boy...

1:17:14 > 1:17:18That little boy'll never know what a wonderful mother she was.

1:17:18 > 1:17:21SHE SOBS

1:17:27 > 1:17:31Emergency! Emergency! We need a doctor!

1:17:31 > 1:17:34There's a man dying!

1:17:34 > 1:17:36Man dying!

1:17:36 > 1:17:38- So, what do I get?- What?

1:17:38 > 1:17:41- Well, if Morgan's getting football boots, I want something.- Tiffany!

1:17:41 > 1:17:44What? When one gets a present, the other does too.

1:17:44 > 1:17:45But the thing is...

1:17:45 > 1:17:48The thing is we're poor and our TV don't even work.

1:17:48 > 1:17:50But Morgan gets what he wants cos his dad's here

1:17:50 > 1:17:53and I don't cos mine's gone!

1:17:53 > 1:17:55- No, no! It's not like that. - Yes, it is! I hate you!

1:17:55 > 1:17:58- I hate all of you! - Oi, spoilt little madam.

1:17:58 > 1:18:00No, she's not, though, is she?

1:18:03 > 1:18:05- DOOR SLAMS - She ain't had nothing for months.

1:18:07 > 1:18:10She needs a new coat, her shoes are too small.

1:18:11 > 1:18:14Right, come on David Beckham, bath time.

1:18:37 > 1:18:40Hello? Yeah, I'm looking for a short term loan.

1:18:41 > 1:18:44No. No, I haven't had one off you yet.

1:18:46 > 1:18:48Well, I just need enough for a new telly.

1:18:51 > 1:18:53Oh. Really?

1:18:55 > 1:18:56Yeah, that's great.

1:18:58 > 1:19:00Well, I was thinking,

1:19:00 > 1:19:03well, you know, like, one of them plasma ones.

1:19:06 > 1:19:10I will never pick up a knife again.

1:19:10 > 1:19:12Look, it was an accident.

1:19:12 > 1:19:15You heard what the nurse said, man, it was just the tip,

1:19:15 > 1:19:17they'll be able to sew it back on again.

1:19:19 > 1:19:22I was fine cutting that fish on my own, you know.

1:19:22 > 1:19:24So, what? It's my fault for getting in the way?

1:19:24 > 1:19:27- Actually, yes, it is your fault. - (That's great.)

1:19:27 > 1:19:28Flirting with Bianca.

1:19:30 > 1:19:33Look, I flirt with all women, all right? It's part of who I am.

1:19:33 > 1:19:35Your finger ain't part of who you are now though, is it?

1:19:35 > 1:19:38You need to calm down. You're getting a bit too worked up.

1:19:38 > 1:19:41You know what? I'm fine, yeah?

1:19:41 > 1:19:43I'm just hot.

1:19:44 > 1:19:47So, if you're hot, put some ice on your neck then, innit.

1:19:47 > 1:19:50- Argh! - HE LAUGHS

1:19:50 > 1:19:51I touched it!

1:19:55 > 1:19:58- But you don't know it was Phil. - Well, who else could it be, Alf? Eh?

1:19:58 > 1:20:01Erm. I don't know, anyone.

1:20:01 > 1:20:06No, not anyone, Alf. Come on, wake up and smell the coffee, mate.

1:20:06 > 1:20:09Phil Mitchell nicked that booze, our booze.

1:20:09 > 1:20:1012 grand's worth.

1:20:10 > 1:20:12So what you going to do then?

1:20:13 > 1:20:15I'm going to think on it. Hm?

1:20:15 > 1:20:18That's the difference between me and him.

1:20:18 > 1:20:19He's all action and no brains.

1:20:19 > 1:20:21No.

1:20:21 > 1:20:24I'm going to think on it and then I'll pounce.

1:20:28 > 1:20:31You're not well, are you? You've gone very quiet.

1:20:32 > 1:20:39I was just thinking about what you said about flirting with all women.

1:20:40 > 1:20:42Why do you do that?

1:20:42 > 1:20:44Well, from what I hear, you do the same.

1:20:44 > 1:20:47Ask yourself the same question.

1:20:47 > 1:20:52Look, I know why I do it, but I just want to know why you do.

1:20:56 > 1:20:58I don't know. I just do.

1:21:00 > 1:21:03Well, you shouldn't.

1:21:03 > 1:21:05Cos if you're flirting with everyone,

1:21:05 > 1:21:08how's a girl to know if you really like her?

1:21:08 > 1:21:11Wait. You chop off my finger

1:21:11 > 1:21:14and then you tell me how I should and shouldn't be?

1:21:14 > 1:21:16You are some piece of work, you know that?

1:21:16 > 1:21:20- I ain't a piece of work, you know. - Yes, you are.- No, I ain't. - Yes, you are.

1:21:20 > 1:21:22Cos you're just trying to get me to tell you how much I like you,

1:21:22 > 1:21:24which is kind of insulting,

1:21:24 > 1:21:27considering it's pretty clear that I do.

1:21:28 > 1:21:29Do you?

1:21:30 > 1:21:32Why else do you think I swung it

1:21:32 > 1:21:36so, that way, you'd have to spend the evening in the kitchen with me?

1:21:36 > 1:21:39It wasn't because I wanted to admire your new dress,

1:21:39 > 1:21:41which I think makes you look cheap.

1:21:41 > 1:21:46No, seriously, it annoys the hell out of me

1:21:46 > 1:21:49because, you know, when you actually do open up to me,

1:21:49 > 1:21:51and we actually get close

1:21:51 > 1:21:53and this becomes something,

1:21:53 > 1:21:56I don't want my woman walking around dressed like that.

1:21:58 > 1:21:59Your woman?

1:21:59 > 1:22:01My woman.

1:22:04 > 1:22:06Argh.

1:22:06 > 1:22:07Oh, is it hurting?

1:22:07 > 1:22:08Er, yeah.

1:22:11 > 1:22:14Oi! There's an injured man in here, bleeding to death.

1:22:14 > 1:22:16Now, if someone don't get in here quickly, trust me,

1:22:16 > 1:22:20I will show you the true meaning of Accident and Emergency, yeah?

1:22:20 > 1:22:22HE CHUCKLES

1:22:22 > 1:22:25D'you know, I love it when you get fired up.

1:22:25 > 1:22:26Stop it.

1:22:33 > 1:22:38Look, I don't know if you're playing me or not, yeah?

1:22:38 > 1:22:40There, I said it.

1:22:40 > 1:22:42If you're playing me, let's call it a day now, cos I...

1:22:42 > 1:22:46I ain't playing you, man. I'm being 100% sincere.

1:22:48 > 1:22:49What about you?

1:22:50 > 1:22:53Promise not to make me jealous?

1:22:55 > 1:22:56You and Bianca?

1:22:58 > 1:23:01Look, she's Morgan's mum, that's all.

1:23:02 > 1:23:05She can't compare with you.

1:23:05 > 1:23:06This is true.

1:23:14 > 1:23:16Come here.

1:23:27 > 1:23:29You're beautiful.

1:23:31 > 1:23:32Am I?

1:24:13 > 1:24:16So? Did he fall for it?

1:24:17 > 1:24:19Yeah, course he did.

1:24:19 > 1:24:23Well done, Trev, mate, you played a blinder. Take care.

1:24:23 > 1:24:26- Pleasure doing business with you. - See ya.- Nice one, Trev.

1:24:27 > 1:24:31- Are you sure Derek ain't going to be suspicious?- Nah.

1:24:31 > 1:24:32No, he thinks Phil did it.

1:24:32 > 1:24:36- What? No, Alfie, that is not good. - Billy, Billy, Billy.

1:24:36 > 1:24:39Come on, Phil can take care of himself, you know that.

1:24:39 > 1:24:41As long as Derek doesn't find out it was us

1:24:41 > 1:24:44that nicked his precious booze, we'll be fine, won't we?

1:24:44 > 1:24:45Like I told ya...

1:24:46 > 1:24:48..I'm no-one's dogsbody.

1:26:08 > 1:26:09Shirley...

1:26:09 > 1:26:12Can I see George?

1:26:13 > 1:26:14You murderer!

1:26:19 > 1:26:21I swear that was cheaper last week.

1:26:21 > 1:26:22Yeah, tell me about it!

1:26:22 > 1:26:23£8.

1:26:23 > 1:26:26You're the one with the price gun.

1:26:27 > 1:26:31(I know she agreed to a blind date the other night but she was drunk.)

1:26:31 > 1:26:33(So what? Drunk, sober, she's still desperate for a man!)

1:26:33 > 1:26:36(Yeah, but a blind date? Anyway, I'm not sure he'd be keen.)

1:26:36 > 1:26:38(Of course he'd be keen, he's a man!

1:26:38 > 1:26:40(It'll appeal to his vanity, to his carnal lusts.)

1:26:40 > 1:26:43- (But what if Denise has got... - You leave Denise to me.)

1:26:43 > 1:26:45(Just make sure that you get him there for six.)

1:26:45 > 1:26:48Yeah, yeah, so you put these prices up any more

1:26:48 > 1:26:51- and I'll be going elsewhere. - Yeah, you do that.

1:26:51 > 1:26:52You know it's a free country.

1:26:52 > 1:26:55I mean, you're paying for the convenience, aren't you, Tanya?

1:26:55 > 1:26:56What's all that about?

1:26:56 > 1:26:59Ah, she's moaning about two pence on a can of beans.

1:26:59 > 1:27:02Have you seen what she charges for a permanent wave?

1:27:05 > 1:27:08- SHIRLEY:- Are you kidding?!

1:27:08 > 1:27:09What, just for one car?

1:27:10 > 1:27:12No!

1:27:13 > 1:27:14No, this ain't happening!

1:27:17 > 1:27:18Thought you was going over the park.

1:27:18 > 1:27:21He's out there, ain't he?

1:27:21 > 1:27:22The murderer.

1:27:22 > 1:27:25- Wanting to see George. - Who was that on the phone?

1:27:25 > 1:27:27The undertakers.

1:27:29 > 1:27:30The coroner's releasing Hev's body.

1:27:32 > 1:27:34Four grand, they want.

1:27:34 > 1:27:35Four grand for a basic funeral!

1:27:35 > 1:27:37They're releasing her body?

1:27:37 > 1:27:42They've said if I can't afford it then she'll have to go in a public grave with all the others!

1:27:42 > 1:27:43It's like she's nothing!

1:27:43 > 1:27:45I'll pay for it.

1:27:45 > 1:27:48Call them back, tell them whatever you want, yeah? I'll cover it.

1:27:48 > 1:27:50You'd do that for Hev?

1:27:50 > 1:27:51And for you.

1:27:57 > 1:28:00Rita, I promise you, darling, they will fly off the optics.

1:28:00 > 1:28:03Yeah, eh, eh, that's the girl. Good girl.

1:28:03 > 1:28:05Are you all right for delivery tomorrow morning, darling?

1:28:05 > 1:28:06No, no, it won't be me.

1:28:06 > 1:28:09No, thank you, I'm a happily married man, thank you for asking.

1:28:09 > 1:28:12All right, take care, sweetheart, bye-bye. Randy old mare.

1:28:12 > 1:28:15- Who's that?- Rita Castle, runs the Mortician's Arms.

1:28:15 > 1:28:18Must be 70 if she's a day. She makes Mo look like a devout nun!

1:28:18 > 1:28:20Anyway, she has got herself 12 cases.

1:28:20 > 1:28:22- Look, you all right to do delivery, yeah?- Yeah, course I am.

1:28:22 > 1:28:25- Brilliant.- Janine's out of town, so I'm my own boss. Here?

1:28:25 > 1:28:26Who's this pair on the back of these 50s, eh?

1:28:26 > 1:28:31- Look a right miserable couple, don't they? - ALFIE CHUCKLES

1:28:31 > 1:28:33is there any chance of a bit of help down there?

1:28:33 > 1:28:37- Cos Kim reckons she's too traumatised to work. - Oh, she cut off Ray's finger.

1:28:37 > 1:28:39- No!- The tip! They've sewed it back on.

1:28:39 > 1:28:44They're all over each other like spotty teenagers. I told you they were right for each other.

1:28:44 > 1:28:47- See, you should trust me when it comes to lurve.- Is that right?

1:28:47 > 1:28:49- Yeah.- Yeah.

1:28:53 > 1:28:56Right then, something is going on and I want to know what. Now.

1:28:58 > 1:29:02Blimey, give her a black wig and some safari roadkill, could be Kat, couldn't it? Ow!

1:29:02 > 1:29:06You've got guilt written all over your face, OK,

1:29:06 > 1:29:09- and there's more money here than I've ever seen in the till.- Well...

1:29:11 > 1:29:13Remember when we had the idea to fleece Derek?

1:29:17 > 1:29:19- My lips are sealed.- Right.

1:29:21 > 1:29:23I can't see Phil Mitchell nicking from you.

1:29:23 > 1:29:26- He ain't that stupid, is he? - Course he is.

1:29:26 > 1:29:27That lot's got no respect.

1:29:28 > 1:29:30I'm moving out.

1:29:30 > 1:29:31What? Where did that come from?

1:29:31 > 1:29:34Mitchell's been running this manor for too long.

1:29:34 > 1:29:35Needs a change in management

1:29:35 > 1:29:38and I won't be doing that from your sofa, will I?

1:29:38 > 1:29:40I need bricks and mortar around me.

1:29:40 > 1:29:43Well, if you say so. Where you going to go?

1:29:43 > 1:29:45I've been thinking about that.

1:29:45 > 1:29:48Carol and Bianca are always strapped for cash, aren't they?

1:29:48 > 1:29:51Big house like that, no man on the premises.

1:29:51 > 1:29:53Ain't right, is it?

1:29:53 > 1:29:56Well, good luck if you think Bianca's going to agree to that.

1:29:56 > 1:29:58Oh, here she comes.

1:29:58 > 1:30:00Thinks she's the Queen of Hearts.

1:30:00 > 1:30:02Oi, she's good for Max.

1:30:02 > 1:30:06Jack, we're Brannings, we don't need women to be "good for us".

1:30:07 > 1:30:09- You can get that.- Yeah, course.

1:30:11 > 1:30:13(Oh, stop it.)

1:30:13 > 1:30:16Charming, your brother, ain't he?

1:30:16 > 1:30:18Yeah.

1:30:18 > 1:30:21I'm glad I've caught you. I've got something to put to you.

1:30:23 > 1:30:24What?

1:30:24 > 1:30:27Well, I have got a friend...

1:30:27 > 1:30:29- HE SIGHS - ..a female friend...

1:30:29 > 1:30:31- Nah.- What?

1:30:31 > 1:30:33I don't need fixing up!

1:30:33 > 1:30:34I'm not trying to fix you up!

1:30:34 > 1:30:36All right, I'm trying to fix you up but...

1:30:36 > 1:30:39Oh, look at you, spending every night in with Derek

1:30:39 > 1:30:40fighting over the remote -

1:30:40 > 1:30:42and I can guess who wins every time.

1:30:42 > 1:30:44It'll do you good to get out, won't it?

1:30:44 > 1:30:46And who knows what it might lead to?

1:30:49 > 1:30:50What's she like, then?

1:30:50 > 1:30:54She's funny, bubbly, great figure. You're going to love her.

1:30:54 > 1:30:56Is that meant to be a joke?

1:30:56 > 1:30:59Oh come on, when was the last time that you had any fun?

1:30:59 > 1:31:01He's a lovely man. He's very tall, very dashing...

1:31:01 > 1:31:03Is he very psychotic?

1:31:03 > 1:31:05Are you my friend or are you not?

1:31:05 > 1:31:07Well, sometimes, you know, I do wonder.

1:31:07 > 1:31:10Believe me when I tell you that this man is perfectly sane.

1:31:10 > 1:31:14Ah, well, if he's so perfect, why is he single?

1:31:15 > 1:31:17That is a very good question!

1:31:17 > 1:31:20And one that you can ask him tonight over dinner.

1:31:22 > 1:31:23Well...

1:31:25 > 1:31:27I suppose it does give me an excuse to get out the house.

1:31:27 > 1:31:29- Yes!- Kim's nursing Ray.

1:31:29 > 1:31:33Well, by that I mean playing doctors and nurses.

1:31:33 > 1:31:35Well, you see! Why should she have all the fun?

1:31:38 > 1:31:42- But you're loaded.- Oi, I gave you a score on Monday, didn't I?

1:31:42 > 1:31:45Yes, and I spent it! It's not the 1950s any more, you know.

1:31:45 > 1:31:47- 20 quid's fish and chips twice! - Has she got to be here?

1:31:47 > 1:31:51Er, chill out, will you? He's told me all about you ripping off old man Branning.

1:31:51 > 1:31:54- What?- It's all right, Alf, you can trust her.

1:31:54 > 1:31:56- Another 20 quid, then?- Look, Lola!

1:31:57 > 1:31:59- DEREK:- Billy boy...

1:32:02 > 1:32:05I thought I could hear your dulcet tones.

1:32:05 > 1:32:06You all right, Derek?

1:32:06 > 1:32:08No, I'm not, as it happens.

1:32:08 > 1:32:12- Did Alfie tell you what happened last night?- Yeah, I filled him in.

1:32:12 > 1:32:14Yeah, yeah, nasty business.

1:32:14 > 1:32:17Oh, and that's the first you've heard of it, was it?

1:32:17 > 1:32:19Yeah, course.

1:32:19 > 1:32:20Really?

1:32:20 > 1:32:23Cos my instincts are telling me...

1:32:23 > 1:32:26that that had a Mitchell's finger prints all over it.

1:32:26 > 1:32:29- Honestly, it's got nothing to do with me.- I told you, it's not down to Billy.

1:32:29 > 1:32:31So, remind me, hm?

1:32:31 > 1:32:35Where was you that meant you wasn't with us last night, eh?

1:32:36 > 1:32:37Oh, I can tell you that.

1:32:40 > 1:32:42Cos he wouldn't shut up about how me being pregnant

1:32:42 > 1:32:43was SO inconvenient for him.

1:32:43 > 1:32:48It's not my fault I have to go to stupid hospital appointments and classes, is it?

1:32:48 > 1:32:51It's bad enough having a sarky midwife making comments

1:32:51 > 1:32:55without this one banging on in my ear about letting you down.

1:32:55 > 1:32:56"What will Derek think?"

1:32:56 > 1:32:59I just told him to grow a pair...

1:32:59 > 1:33:01or don't family matter?

1:33:03 > 1:33:04No, family does matter.

1:33:05 > 1:33:07That's a clever girl you've got there.

1:33:07 > 1:33:09Oh, yeah.

1:33:11 > 1:33:13Very clever girl.

1:33:21 > 1:33:24That's gotta be worth another 20 quid, right?

1:33:27 > 1:33:29RACING COMMENTARY ON RADIO

1:33:33 > 1:33:36I wondered what was keeping you quiet. Perhaps...

1:33:36 > 1:33:40on this occasion, you could forego your gambling,

1:33:40 > 1:33:44seeing as today is the day that Jesus was crucified for your sins.

1:33:48 > 1:33:49(Yes!)

1:33:53 > 1:33:56Hello, kids, how are you?

1:33:56 > 1:33:59Oi, don't be rude! Say hello to your Uncle Derek.

1:33:59 > 1:34:03I've got a surprise for you two, hm? Now, close your eyes...

1:34:03 > 1:34:05Close 'em. Close 'em.

1:34:05 > 1:34:06Nice and tight.

1:34:08 > 1:34:11- Now open them. - BOTH: Thank you so much!

1:34:11 > 1:34:14You can't open them till Sunday - you know that, don't you?

1:34:14 > 1:34:18- Take 'em in the kitchen, then I can keep my eye on them. - No trust, is there?

1:34:18 > 1:34:20Take them football boots off! You'll ruin them!

1:34:20 > 1:34:21- Thank you.- My pleasure.

1:34:23 > 1:34:25So, what you after?

1:34:25 > 1:34:28Oh that's nice, innit? Can't a man buy his great nephew and niece

1:34:28 > 1:34:29a bit of chocolate at Easter, eh?

1:34:29 > 1:34:32Oh, and that reminds me, this is for Liam.

1:34:32 > 1:34:34I thought he was a bit too old for...

1:34:36 > 1:34:38Oh, all right, all right, all right!

1:34:39 > 1:34:41I've been thinking...

1:34:41 > 1:34:44- You've got problems, right? - I have not got problems, what...

1:34:44 > 1:34:46Financial problems, hm?

1:34:47 > 1:34:50And that's where I can help...you know?

1:34:50 > 1:34:52- That's what families are about. - I am not a charity.

1:34:52 > 1:34:55Look, see, I've got a new telly. I don't need your money.

1:34:55 > 1:34:58Yeah well, you did a few weeks ago and you do now, so drop the act, OK?

1:34:58 > 1:35:01It's common knowledge round the Square that you're...

1:35:01 > 1:35:04finding things a bit tight, yeah? And that's where I can help.

1:35:04 > 1:35:06Actually, we could help each other.

1:35:07 > 1:35:09How?

1:35:09 > 1:35:11I'm moving out of Jack's, I was thinking Pat's old room.

1:35:11 > 1:35:15- No, my mum's in there.- Surely you've got another room free, eh?

1:35:15 > 1:35:18- It's what you need, a man around the house. A man of means. - I don't need...

1:35:18 > 1:35:21- I don't need a man. No, sorry.- Why not?

1:35:21 > 1:35:24Do you want me to say it? Really?

1:35:24 > 1:35:26It's Pat, innit?

1:35:26 > 1:35:28If you move so much as your Brylcreem in that room,

1:35:28 > 1:35:30she would turn in her grave.

1:35:33 > 1:35:34I'm sorry.

1:35:35 > 1:35:37But thanks for the Easter eggs.

1:35:40 > 1:35:44You know, it's the first time in days

1:35:44 > 1:35:47that I feel clear in my head.

1:35:47 > 1:35:48Did it help?

1:35:48 > 1:35:51All that staying up all night praying, starving yourself?

1:35:51 > 1:35:57It's called fasting, Cora, not starving, and yes it did.

1:35:57 > 1:36:00I feel much more myself now.

1:36:00 > 1:36:01I'm pleased for you.

1:36:01 > 1:36:04Just for the record, I'm not mocking it.

1:36:05 > 1:36:08If it helps you, it's good enough for me.

1:36:08 > 1:36:13On the night that Jesus was betrayed, he stayed awake all night praying.

1:36:16 > 1:36:20The vicar came round yesterday. He washed my feet.

1:36:20 > 1:36:21What for?

1:36:21 > 1:36:26On account of Jesus washing the disciples' feet on Maundy Thursday -

1:36:26 > 1:36:28- it's a tradition. - And he come round here?!

1:36:28 > 1:36:31I didn't want him to do it at first. I didn't feel worthy.

1:36:31 > 1:36:34If you're not worthy, Dot, I don't know who is.

1:36:35 > 1:36:37Anyway, he prayed with me

1:36:37 > 1:36:40and after he'd gone I felt something was lifted from me,

1:36:40 > 1:36:45and I realised that I'd been trying to deal with everything -

1:36:45 > 1:36:49you know, what happened to Heather - by myself,

1:36:49 > 1:36:55and not letting Jesus in because of my anger about what had happened

1:36:55 > 1:36:56to that poor dear girl.

1:36:56 > 1:37:02- Course you were angry.- And so I decided to give it all over to him.

1:37:02 > 1:37:07All my hurt, and confusion and my anger...

1:37:07 > 1:37:10and listen to what He wanted me to do.

1:37:10 > 1:37:13- And has He told you what He wants you to do?- Yes...

1:37:13 > 1:37:14Yes, He has.

1:37:14 > 1:37:16KNOCK ON DOOR

1:37:24 > 1:37:25Oh.

1:37:25 > 1:37:28Oh, Bianca, I'm so sorry, I'm just going out.

1:37:28 > 1:37:32That's all right, Dot, I was just quickly popping in to get my wages.

1:37:32 > 1:37:35Your wages? What wages?

1:37:35 > 1:37:38- For the laundrette.- Oh.

1:37:38 > 1:37:42I thought you was just helping out - I never realised you wanted paying.

1:37:44 > 1:37:46No.

1:37:46 > 1:37:49Of course I was just helping you out.

1:37:49 > 1:37:51Course I was, Dot. I was only, erm...

1:37:51 > 1:37:54Well, I was just popping by just to say, er...

1:37:54 > 1:37:58I just don't think I'm going to have time to do it again. Sorry.

1:37:59 > 1:38:01Look, George, I'm sorry.

1:38:03 > 1:38:07I know you don't understand but...I am sorry.

1:38:08 > 1:38:12- Where's Shirley? - She's having a shower.

1:38:12 > 1:38:16- Dad, I can't ignore him.- Well, you're going to have to, ain't you?

1:38:16 > 1:38:21- He won't be here for much longer, anyway.- You spoken to Darren? - I'm working on it.

1:38:22 > 1:38:26Shirley needs to move on and you need to keep your mouth shut.

1:38:34 > 1:38:37She's going to kill you, you know that, don't you?

1:38:37 > 1:38:39You can't tell her. She can't find out.

1:38:39 > 1:38:42- You all right, Bianca? - All right, Jack.

1:38:42 > 1:38:44- Oh, look, you've missed a bit there! - Yeah, very funny.

1:38:44 > 1:38:48What are you two doing out here gossiping? You wouldn't think you got a new telly in there.

1:38:48 > 1:38:50Morgan's ripped his football boots!

1:38:50 > 1:38:54What?! Oh, you can't have! You've only had them two minutes!

1:38:54 > 1:38:57I told him to be careful but he never listens to me.

1:38:57 > 1:38:59- I bashed my foot! It hurts. - Well, good!

1:38:59 > 1:39:03Look! Do you know how much they cost? Do you?

1:39:03 > 1:39:06Well, you can forget about joining the team as well

1:39:06 > 1:39:09because I can't afford to buy you another pair!

1:39:09 > 1:39:12Boys...no respect!

1:39:26 > 1:39:28Didn't think I'd see your face around here again.

1:39:28 > 1:39:30Not after what happened in the Vic.

1:39:30 > 1:39:33Yes, well, I'll come straight to the point.

1:39:33 > 1:39:37I've come to offer my services. You know, with the funeral.

1:39:37 > 1:39:41- You know, when Heather's...- Yes.

1:39:41 > 1:39:43- They released her this morning.- Oh...

1:39:44 > 1:39:47Oh, well, of course they would've done cos that's why He told me to come.

1:39:47 > 1:39:50- Who?- Jesus.

1:40:11 > 1:40:14- JACK LAUGHS - What are you doing?!

1:40:14 > 1:40:16- I'm sorry.- I'm drenched!

1:40:17 > 1:40:19Listen, I didn't see you.

1:40:19 > 1:40:22- Oh.- Oh, right, you think this is funny, do you?

1:40:22 > 1:40:23- You did this on purpose!- No!

1:40:23 > 1:40:27- Just because I poached your builder! - No, I swear, all right, I didn't see you.

1:40:27 > 1:40:30- I've just had my hair done! - HE LAUGHS

1:40:30 > 1:40:32You know what? You're going to pay for this.

1:40:32 > 1:40:34I swear to ya!

1:40:41 > 1:40:45I didn't know George Michael wrote so many songs.

1:40:45 > 1:40:48I mean, we don't want nothing jazzy.

1:40:48 > 1:40:50Although, I suppose there's nothing to say

1:40:50 > 1:40:52that a funeral shouldn't be joyous

1:40:52 > 1:40:55but not when you're walking the coffin in.

1:40:55 > 1:40:58I should know what she would've wanted.

1:40:58 > 1:41:00I should've known what she'd have wanted without thinking.

1:41:00 > 1:41:03Well, maybe you're thinking too much, Shirley.

1:41:03 > 1:41:04Let's leave it, eh?

1:41:04 > 1:41:07And then chances are that it'll come to you in the middle of the night.

1:41:07 > 1:41:10That's what happens, I lose something, I wander round looking for it

1:41:10 > 1:41:13and then three o'clock in the morning I sit bolt upright in bed

1:41:13 > 1:41:16and remember where I put it by mistake -

1:41:16 > 1:41:17in the fridge.

1:41:17 > 1:41:20You know, there was one.

1:41:20 > 1:41:22Not that you'd know of it, but...

1:41:22 > 1:41:25she used to say that the words, they spoke to her.

1:41:26 > 1:41:28I'm supposed to be her best mate!

1:41:28 > 1:41:29She would've known what I'd have wanted!

1:41:29 > 1:41:31Yes, well that's cos she cared.

1:41:32 > 1:41:34Well, that ain't to say that you didn't care...

1:41:34 > 1:41:37but she was interested.

1:41:37 > 1:41:41I mean, she used to buy me squashed fly biscuits for my birthday

1:41:41 > 1:41:43cos she knew they were my favourite, you know.

1:41:43 > 1:41:45Every year without fail.

1:41:45 > 1:41:48And then she'd sit down and scoff the lot.

1:41:48 > 1:41:50She'd hardly leave me one to dunk in my tea!

1:41:52 > 1:41:55Everyone knows how much you cared for her.

1:42:01 > 1:42:02You got it from Tamwar?

1:42:02 > 1:42:03Yeah, just now.

1:42:04 > 1:42:07I suppose that leaves it to me to break the news.

1:42:07 > 1:42:08What are you going to say?

1:42:08 > 1:42:10I don't know, but...

1:42:10 > 1:42:14Well, once we get the funeral out the way

1:42:14 > 1:42:18and George goes to live with Darren, things will get back to normal.

1:42:18 > 1:42:19They won't.

1:42:19 > 1:42:21They will.

1:42:22 > 1:42:26Darren? Darren, yeah, it's Phil Mitchell.

1:42:26 > 1:42:28Yeah.

1:42:28 > 1:42:29Listen, mate...

1:42:29 > 1:42:33The thing is, we've been trying to ring for the last few days. Only...

1:42:33 > 1:42:34Yeah, there's...

1:42:34 > 1:42:36Well, there's a bit of bad news.

1:42:38 > 1:42:40You need to get back to England.

1:42:40 > 1:42:42Now.

1:42:52 > 1:42:54You could have used your key.

1:42:54 > 1:42:56I, erm, didn't want to.

1:42:57 > 1:43:00I just wanted to pick up the last of my stuff

1:43:00 > 1:43:03and leave before Auntie Dot gets back.

1:43:05 > 1:43:06How are you?

1:43:07 > 1:43:10Been better.

1:43:10 > 1:43:11Thanks.

1:43:11 > 1:43:12What for?

1:43:12 > 1:43:15Talking to me.

1:43:15 > 1:43:16Most people don't.

1:43:17 > 1:43:20They shout stuff at me but they, erm...

1:43:20 > 1:43:22They don't talk.

1:43:23 > 1:43:24It's a mess!

1:43:26 > 1:43:27How's your mum?

1:43:27 > 1:43:31She thinks we should go back to Southend...

1:43:31 > 1:43:33but I ain't running away.

1:43:33 > 1:43:35DOOR OPENS

1:43:35 > 1:43:36Is that Auntie Dot?

1:43:36 > 1:43:40- Dot?- I've just been over to Shirley's...

1:43:40 > 1:43:42Andrew...

1:43:42 > 1:43:44Auntie Dot.

1:43:44 > 1:43:47I don't want no rows.

1:43:47 > 1:43:50I'm just picking some stuff up. I ain't going to stick around.

1:43:53 > 1:43:55How did you get on with the funeral?

1:43:55 > 1:43:57We didn't get very far.

1:43:57 > 1:44:01Shirley couldn't think of a George Michael song that Heather would want.

1:44:01 > 1:44:03You Have Been Loved.

1:44:04 > 1:44:06It's on the Older album.

1:44:07 > 1:44:08"It's a cruel world

1:44:10 > 1:44:12"We've so much to lose

1:44:14 > 1:44:16"And what we have to learn

1:44:17 > 1:44:19"We rarely choose."

1:44:21 > 1:44:25I'll just get my stuff and I'll be out of your hair.

1:44:35 > 1:44:39- Ooh, look at you, making an effort! To try and look nice!- "To try"...?

1:44:39 > 1:44:40Where is he, then?

1:44:40 > 1:44:43Oh, he hasn't arrived yet. Please.

1:44:43 > 1:44:45I tell you what, Zee.

1:44:45 > 1:44:49If I get stood up tonight you'll never hear the end of it,

1:44:49 > 1:44:50I'm warning you.

1:44:50 > 1:44:52OK, relax.

1:44:52 > 1:44:54Here, have some chutney.

1:44:54 > 1:44:55Rather have some vodka.

1:44:55 > 1:44:56All right, just the one.

1:44:56 > 1:44:59We don't want people thinking you're dependent on alcohol.

1:45:02 > 1:45:06Oh great, that's all I need, innit?

1:45:06 > 1:45:08- Jack Branning sat opposite me when I'm on a date.- (Yes.)

1:45:11 > 1:45:13- I'm here to meet someone.- I know.

1:45:15 > 1:45:18Here she is! Jack, this is Denise. Denise, this is Jack.

1:45:19 > 1:45:21You are kidding me, aren't you?

1:45:21 > 1:45:23Well...

1:45:23 > 1:45:24Hell no!

1:45:28 > 1:45:31Ow! Stop kicking, will you?

1:45:38 > 1:45:41It's all right, you don't have to go.

1:45:41 > 1:45:44Yeah, I do. I ain't being battered to death in the middle of a laundrette.

1:45:57 > 1:46:01Oh, "charming," you said! "Kind hearted," you said!

1:46:01 > 1:46:02Why don't you sit down...

1:46:02 > 1:46:05- He's about as charming as a great white! - HE LAUGHS

1:46:05 > 1:46:07- I was told she had a sunny disposition!- She has her moments.

1:46:07 > 1:46:10Yeah, not to mention, "witty", "playful"...

1:46:10 > 1:46:13- Oh, really? Playful?- Yeah.

1:46:13 > 1:46:15I bet that's the one that got you to come tonight, innit?

1:46:15 > 1:46:17What, you think I was some teenager

1:46:17 > 1:46:20that you could talk into bed like my daughter?

1:46:22 > 1:46:24I don't need to talk women into bed, sweetheart.

1:46:26 > 1:46:29So you want playful, do you?

1:46:29 > 1:46:31How's that for playful?

1:46:33 > 1:46:35You've got a lot of explaining to do.

1:46:37 > 1:46:38Really good.

1:46:38 > 1:46:40- Sorry.- No, excellent.

1:46:42 > 1:46:44All right, you having a break?

1:46:44 > 1:46:46Little one. Been shopping?

1:46:46 > 1:46:47Oh, I certainly have, yes.

1:46:47 > 1:46:50I've managed to pay Phil off his rent and...

1:46:50 > 1:46:52I bought this.

1:46:52 > 1:46:54What do you reckon, eh?

1:46:54 > 1:46:56I reckon it's not your colour.

1:46:56 > 1:46:59Yeah, very funny. Well done. Go on, try it on.

1:47:01 > 1:47:03- Me?- Yeah, yeah, go on, try it on.

1:47:03 > 1:47:07Listen, I'll stand out on the landing. Give me a shout when it's on, all right? Good girl.

1:47:13 > 1:47:14Yeah?

1:47:20 > 1:47:23- Surprise!- Oh, what!

1:47:23 > 1:47:26I had to guess his size but I can always take them back if they're wrong.

1:47:26 > 1:47:31- No.- Oh, I saw him this morning, with his poor little torn boots, B.

1:47:31 > 1:47:33I've told him he can't have new boots.

1:47:33 > 1:47:36And you can't buy your way in here with a pair of football boots!

1:47:38 > 1:47:39No!

1:48:01 > 1:48:02I, er...

1:48:03 > 1:48:05I just needed to feel close to Heather.

1:48:07 > 1:48:09I'm sorry.

1:48:26 > 1:48:29He's coming back to England.

1:48:29 > 1:48:30He's going to take George.

1:48:31 > 1:48:33What am I going to do?

1:48:33 > 1:48:34(Come here.)

1:48:34 > 1:48:36Come here, come here.

1:48:43 > 1:48:44I need to tell Dot.

1:48:51 > 1:48:53- Yeah.- You decent?

1:48:53 > 1:48:57- Da-da!- Wowa, wowa, wow-wee! Yes! Wow.

1:48:58 > 1:49:01It's good, it's good... It's a little bit big

1:49:01 > 1:49:04but it doesn't matter cos you can't tell.

1:49:04 > 1:49:06It needs to be a bit bigger, but I think she's going to love it.

1:49:08 > 1:49:10Do you think she'll like the colour?

1:49:11 > 1:49:13Kat? Yeah.

1:49:13 > 1:49:15Yeah, I think it's perfect.

1:49:15 > 1:49:19Yeah, that's what I thought, you see. I wasn't 100%, but I am now.

1:49:19 > 1:49:21Listen, thanks for trying it on, darling.

1:49:21 > 1:49:23That'll put a smile on her face. Right, do you want a cup of tea?

1:49:27 > 1:49:30She should be here, now...

1:49:30 > 1:49:32fussing about George...

1:49:32 > 1:49:34telling me about her day.

1:49:36 > 1:49:37Same old Heather...

1:49:39 > 1:49:41..only with a wedding ring on her finger.

1:49:43 > 1:49:47- A ring that I put on her. - Yes, well...

1:49:47 > 1:49:49Yeah, "well" what?

1:49:49 > 1:49:50What?

1:49:51 > 1:49:54You might think I killed her.

1:49:54 > 1:49:55I don't care.

1:49:57 > 1:49:59I don't care about anything.

1:49:59 > 1:50:00My life's over.

1:50:02 > 1:50:03No, it isn't.

1:50:03 > 1:50:05Heather's is.

1:50:05 > 1:50:06Yeah...

1:50:07 > 1:50:09..and she was my life.

1:50:09 > 1:50:12You only knew her five minutes.

1:50:12 > 1:50:14She was my life after five seconds!

1:50:15 > 1:50:17You don't get it, do you?

1:50:18 > 1:50:21I've never been like other blokes.

1:50:21 > 1:50:22I've never...

1:50:23 > 1:50:26I've never had much success with women.

1:50:28 > 1:50:30Never even know what to say to them.

1:50:31 > 1:50:36Then she comes along and she gets me...and I get her...

1:50:37 > 1:50:38And we know.

1:50:40 > 1:50:42We understand...

1:50:42 > 1:50:45we have to be together. We both knew that.

1:50:47 > 1:50:49Now we can't...

1:50:50 > 1:50:52..cos she's gone.

1:50:54 > 1:50:58And I don't care that people think I killed her.

1:50:58 > 1:51:01I don't, really.

1:51:02 > 1:51:04Because whoever did kill her...

1:51:04 > 1:51:06killed me too.

1:51:06 > 1:51:08That's just silly talk.

1:51:08 > 1:51:10What do you know about it?

1:51:10 > 1:51:12You've never had love like that, have you?

1:51:12 > 1:51:15My dad treated you like a door mat.

1:51:15 > 1:51:18- What do you know about it!- I know that he left you for your sister.

1:51:18 > 1:51:22Shows you how much he thought of you.

1:51:22 > 1:51:25And you told Mum you only married Jim for companionship.

1:51:25 > 1:51:29Well, that ain't true. She's wrong! I love Jim!

1:51:29 > 1:51:32It breaks my heart that we can't be together no more!

1:51:32 > 1:51:33Yeah?

1:51:35 > 1:51:40If that was Heather in a home, I'd be there every minute I could be!

1:51:41 > 1:51:47I'd sleep on the floor of her room just to breathe the same air as her.

1:51:48 > 1:51:51What am I going to do without her, Auntie Dot?

1:51:51 > 1:51:52What?

1:51:54 > 1:51:57It breaks your heart, doesn't it?

1:51:57 > 1:52:01When you love someone and you can't be with them.

1:52:04 > 1:52:05Oh, yeah?

1:52:07 > 1:52:10Very cosy.

1:52:10 > 1:52:11What are you doing with him?

1:52:11 > 1:52:14I can go where I like. The police released me.

1:52:14 > 1:52:15Yeah, well, don't kid yourself,

1:52:15 > 1:52:18- you'll be back behind bars soon enough.- Shirley.- What?

1:52:18 > 1:52:20I believe him. He didn't kill her.

1:52:20 > 1:52:24I mean, look at him. He loved her too much.

1:52:25 > 1:52:30- You what? Yes, he did!- No, he didn't. I know it, I feel it.

1:52:31 > 1:52:34He loved her as much as you and me loved her. Perhaps more.

1:52:34 > 1:52:36No, he never, Dot!

1:52:36 > 1:52:38Don't fall for his pack of lies.

1:52:38 > 1:52:39They're not lies!

1:52:40 > 1:52:42He's innocent.

1:52:43 > 1:52:44I know he is.

1:52:46 > 1:52:49I don't care what you think any more, Dot.

1:52:49 > 1:52:51But one thing is crystal clear -

1:52:51 > 1:52:55you believe him and you were never Heather's friend.

1:52:57 > 1:53:00You keep away from the funeral. You hear me?

1:53:01 > 1:53:03Both of you!
