0:00:32 > 0:00:34SHE SIGHS

0:00:46 > 0:00:49How come I'm doing all this on my own?

0:00:49 > 0:00:51Because your mum's in there, ain't she?

0:00:51 > 0:00:52It's women's work, innit?

0:00:52 > 0:00:54SHE LAUGHS

0:00:54 > 0:00:55- Oh, is that right?- Yes.

0:00:55 > 0:00:56Oscar!

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Get a move on, mate! Sharon and Dennis are waiting for you.

0:00:59 > 0:01:00She's through there.

0:01:02 > 0:01:03SHE LAUGHS

0:01:03 > 0:01:04Oi!

0:01:04 > 0:01:05Children...

0:01:05 > 0:01:07Yes, child, calm yourself down.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09Right, give me two minutes, I'll come with you.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12Er... I was going to give you the day off, actually, Joey.

0:01:12 > 0:01:13Yeah?

0:01:13 > 0:01:15Yeah.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Give you a chance to find somewhere else to live.

0:01:17 > 0:01:18What?

0:01:18 > 0:01:20All right, OK.

0:01:20 > 0:01:24- Dad! It's only washing-up liquid. I'm going to clear it up. - It ain't that, Lauren, all right?

0:01:26 > 0:01:28Look, it ain't me, all right, Joey? It's...

0:01:28 > 0:01:34If it was down to me, you could stay as long as you want. It's just... not everyone's happy, so...

0:01:34 > 0:01:35What, Mum?

0:01:37 > 0:01:38Derek.

0:01:38 > 0:01:39Are you serious?

0:01:39 > 0:01:43Lauren, it's complicated, all right? SHE SIGHS

0:01:43 > 0:01:47What, his dad doesn't want him to live in our house?

0:01:47 > 0:01:50Has he got any thoughts on what I might have for my breakfast next? What..?

0:01:50 > 0:01:54Are you going to ask Derek's permission the next time you need to go to the toilet, Dad?

0:01:59 > 0:02:01- It's nothing personal, all right? - Yeah.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04There's bedsits and all that, ain't there?

0:02:04 > 0:02:05Yeah... yeah, course.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07It's not a problem. There's loads of places.

0:02:07 > 0:02:09DOOR SLAMS

0:02:11 > 0:02:12Lauren!

0:02:14 > 0:02:16Oh, Tan, you ought to have a little cushion though, you know?

0:02:16 > 0:02:18For your posture.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21And peppermint tea. For a bit of energy.

0:02:21 > 0:02:22And also a light on.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25Cos my Auntie Karen almost went blind from reading under the duvet.

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Is that all right?

0:02:30 > 0:02:32Sorry.

0:02:32 > 0:02:33Keys.

0:02:35 > 0:02:39Um...Hair, hormones, or, um...

0:02:39 > 0:02:41just the whole maths thing?

0:02:41 > 0:02:43- TANYA CHUCKLES - Yeah.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45I would honestly rather go to the dentist

0:02:45 > 0:02:47than start moving decimal points about.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50No, it's family.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52And lies. I mean, you think you know someone, Poppy...

0:02:52 > 0:02:54And then you don't.

0:02:54 > 0:02:55Yeah, I know.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57Right, my friend, Jessica Dodds,

0:02:57 > 0:03:01found out her dad was gay the night before her NVQ level one in beauty.

0:03:01 > 0:03:04Yeah? My other friend, Charlotte Hickey,

0:03:04 > 0:03:07her mum got pregnant at 45, on purpose.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09And I'm not being rude, but that is an horrible shock.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12And this is just down my street, yeah?

0:03:12 > 0:03:13My Mum says it's a good job we're normal.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15POPPY CHUCKLES Yeah, right.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18If she actually knew anything about my sister...

0:03:18 > 0:03:22Well, put it this way, she would not be giving Tansy a pound every Friday

0:03:22 > 0:03:23for her supermarket trolley.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26SHE SIGHS Thing is...

0:03:26 > 0:03:28I can't say anything.

0:03:28 > 0:03:29You know...

0:03:29 > 0:03:32You leave a secret buried for a long time,

0:03:32 > 0:03:34it's really hard to just...

0:03:34 > 0:03:37casually slip it in the conversation, you know?

0:03:39 > 0:03:40Is my mum up?

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Um...

0:03:42 > 0:03:43Five minutes -

0:03:43 > 0:03:47she'll be on her second cup of coffee and have her hairnet off.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51- I don't know how long I'm going to be.- It's not a problem.

0:03:51 > 0:03:52Thank you, Poppy.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55- Where did I put...- It's down here.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59- See ya, then.- See ya.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Whoa, whoa, whoa! You want to slow her down a little bit, Max. - Lauren, let's just leave it, yeah?

0:04:13 > 0:04:15- Let's go.- No!

0:04:15 > 0:04:17No, come on, Uncle Derek! I'm waiting.

0:04:17 > 0:04:21Look, who or what Joey does is hardly any business of mine, is it?

0:04:21 > 0:04:24So why can't you keep your sticky beak out of it, eh?

0:04:24 > 0:04:26My...my...my sticky beak?

0:04:27 > 0:04:29- My sticky beak?!- All right, Del. Leave it.

0:04:29 > 0:04:30Derek...

0:04:30 > 0:04:32he's my cousin.

0:04:32 > 0:04:36Look, this boy is a man of some 20-odd years

0:04:36 > 0:04:38with an very unsavoury reputation, eh?

0:04:38 > 0:04:41It's no wonder that your father wants him out the house.

0:04:41 > 0:04:45- What, you...you actually think I fancy your daughter here?- Dad!

0:04:45 > 0:04:49Dad, I would rather snog Ian Beale back in the tramp days. Seriously.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52- Yeah. And that is a mutual feeling, actually.- Joey, don't be stupid.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55- Course I don't think you fancy her. I'm not that sick, am I? - How could you, eh?

0:04:55 > 0:04:57How could you?

0:04:57 > 0:04:59Eh? Any pretty girl, is that what it is, Joe?

0:04:59 > 0:05:01Doesn't matter if you're related?

0:05:01 > 0:05:03Eh?

0:05:03 > 0:05:06Some men - they're like dogs.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08I hope you've kept your paws off of her this long.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11But, like I said to Max,

0:05:11 > 0:05:14as sick as it is, it's not illegal.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16I mean, it's not like a proper crime, is it,

0:05:16 > 0:05:19like murder, or robbery, or fraud.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22I mean, they are proper crimes, ain't they Max, eh?

0:05:22 > 0:05:23You're disgusting perverts.

0:05:25 > 0:05:26No.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30I think you want to rein her in a little bit.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33What's your problem, Del, eh? What's going on in your head?

0:05:33 > 0:05:34Making out like this is my call.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37Eh? And in fact, what's your problem with Joey staying at mine, all right?

0:05:37 > 0:05:40- I thought we'd sorted all this out! - He ain't your son.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Now, I'm willing to back off here, Max,

0:05:43 > 0:05:45and let you sort your problems out yourself.

0:05:45 > 0:05:50- Right, well, Del, you know I can't just get hold of a grand just like that.- Well then kick him out!

0:05:50 > 0:05:51It's as simple as that.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55It's either one way or the other, Uncle Max.

0:05:55 > 0:05:58And don't forget, your friends are getting restless.

0:05:58 > 0:05:59Mm?

0:06:00 > 0:06:04Two o'clock in the Vic. Make the right decision.

0:06:04 > 0:06:05OK?

0:06:10 > 0:06:13I just thought it would cheer you up.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16What with losing your job and Rainie and everything.

0:06:16 > 0:06:19Well, you were in a foul mood the whole of last week, really,

0:06:19 > 0:06:21- weren't you, so..? - You got any make up on?

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Your eyes look puffy.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28I do understand that it was because of the birthday.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33Of your little daughter that died. Wasn't it?

0:06:36 > 0:06:38My sister that died.

0:06:38 > 0:06:39Yeah, OK, thanks.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Ava.

0:06:41 > 0:06:45- She does have a name. - Yeah, does. Exactly. Does.

0:06:45 > 0:06:46Not "did." Not past tense.

0:06:50 > 0:06:51Are you...

0:06:51 > 0:06:52are you sick again?

0:06:53 > 0:06:54No.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57- I just... - What you yakking on about, then?

0:06:59 > 0:07:01I want to visit her grave.

0:07:04 > 0:07:05Yeah, I was thinking...

0:07:07 > 0:07:10I was thinking, what with Ava being dead and everything, isn't she?

0:07:12 > 0:07:13OK.

0:07:15 > 0:07:16So...

0:07:16 > 0:07:17I thought, um...

0:07:17 > 0:07:20Well, you must have been laying flowers on her grave

0:07:20 > 0:07:22on your own for 48 years, haven't you?

0:07:25 > 0:07:26Right.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30So I thought I could come.

0:07:31 > 0:07:35We could go together. And talk about Ava.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38Honestly.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41At her graveside.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44Just you and me. Sitting by the grave.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50Where exactly is her grave, Mum?

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Tanya...

0:07:56 > 0:07:58Please tell me.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03Er...I don't know how to say this...

0:08:04 > 0:08:06But...

0:08:06 > 0:08:09you're a very demanding,

0:08:09 > 0:08:12interfering nosey parker, and you always have been.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16Please don't try and cheer me up again.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19Gives me such an headache.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29That's a lovely motor, innit?

0:08:33 > 0:08:35All right, I tell you what I'll do, all right?

0:08:35 > 0:08:36And I'm being an absolute idiot here.

0:08:36 > 0:08:40If you give me cash today, I'll knock 500 quid off the price, yeah?

0:08:40 > 0:08:41Want to think about it?

0:08:41 > 0:08:44I mean, all you've got to do is speak to your bank.

0:08:47 > 0:08:48HE SIGHS

0:08:52 > 0:08:53He's a freak.

0:08:53 > 0:08:58In fact, they're both middle-aged, sex-obsessed freaks.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03A girl and a boy can just be good friends, can't they?

0:09:03 > 0:09:04They can.

0:09:04 > 0:09:05Yes, course.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09- SHE SIGHS - You know, all my dad does is just give me grief.

0:09:09 > 0:09:10Mm.

0:09:22 > 0:09:26- but you're going to have to stop having a drama all the time, you know?- What?

0:09:26 > 0:09:30It ain't a big deal, all right? I mean, yeah, Mum's is too far away, but like your dad said,

0:09:30 > 0:09:35- I can cover a bedsit if my hours don't go down at the club. - No, just because I'm not working,

0:09:35 > 0:09:37- what, you reckon I'm looking for a drama?- Mm.

0:09:38 > 0:09:41Right, come on, max 140 a week, and if it says "compact" don't even bother,

0:09:41 > 0:09:45cos it means your shower's in the kitchen and you sleep with your feet up on the fridge.

0:09:46 > 0:09:47SHE CHUCKLES

0:09:47 > 0:09:50Well, come on. Pull your finger out, you drama queen.

0:10:33 > 0:10:34Cheers.

0:10:57 > 0:11:01Yeah. Yeah, I realise it's a long shot, but it would be, um...

0:11:30 > 0:11:33I mean, just birds, though, you know.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36Only time I get oil on my hands with a fella is when I help Phil out down the Arches.

0:11:36 > 0:11:39Well, I will pass that on, naturally.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33No.

0:14:34 > 0:14:35Yeah.

0:14:36 > 0:14:37So...

0:14:37 > 0:14:39Anyway, er...

0:14:39 > 0:14:41Sylvia...

0:14:41 > 0:14:44Yeah, um...I was, you know, wondering, hoping...

0:14:44 > 0:14:48er...if you'd like to go out, you know...please.

0:14:48 > 0:14:52Sometime. You know, if you're free... erm...you know, if you'd like to...

0:14:52 > 0:14:55erm...you know, maybe we could go for a drink?

0:14:55 > 0:14:56Or not a drink, you know?

0:14:56 > 0:14:58or maybe we can go for, er, spaghetti bolognese,

0:14:58 > 0:15:00or...or however you roll.

0:15:00 > 0:15:04You just...you just let me know and I can make that happen, you know?

0:15:04 > 0:15:06So, er...what do you say?

0:15:10 > 0:15:11No.

0:15:11 > 0:15:15- No?- No!- What you talking about, no? - No. Too desperate.- What?!- Too needy.

0:15:15 > 0:15:19And if a man's been watching me for weeks, I'm going to call the police,

0:15:19 > 0:15:21because that is an arrestable offence, Fats...

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Right, just keep it simple, yeah?

0:15:23 > 0:15:27"Oh, what a surprise, I've seen you around, can I buy you a drink?"

0:15:28 > 0:15:29Oh! Oh...

0:15:29 > 0:15:31What a surprise, you know what?

0:15:31 > 0:15:34I've seen you around, you know, can I buy you a drink?

0:15:34 > 0:15:35Mm...bit better.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37I very nearly said yes then.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39HE SIGHS AND SHE LAUGHS

0:16:06 > 0:16:09Mm...Yeah well, my mum might like it,

0:16:09 > 0:16:12but if it's going to be me with the 30 grand worth of debt,

0:16:12 > 0:16:16then it's going to be because I've spent it all on...

0:16:16 > 0:16:19..on expensive clothes or a trip to Barbados or something.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21Not university fees.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24I'm just saying I'd get bored, that's all.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26Oh...see?

0:16:26 > 0:16:30Ah...you're not very bright, are you, Joseph? No...

0:16:31 > 0:16:32Oi!

0:16:32 > 0:16:33No, see...

0:16:33 > 0:16:35If I'm going to be bored anyway,

0:16:35 > 0:16:37then I'm going to be doing it at home.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39With the telly on.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Full drinks cabinet.

0:16:42 > 0:16:47Not working some nine-to-five minimum wage job in a garage.

0:16:47 > 0:16:48Really? No.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50All right, fair enough.

0:16:50 > 0:16:51You know...

0:16:51 > 0:16:52Getting drunk all day on your own,

0:16:52 > 0:16:54watching Cash in the Attic.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57You are living the dream, babe.

0:16:57 > 0:17:01D'you know what, I do not do nothing all day, "babe."

0:17:01 > 0:17:02Oh, really?

0:17:02 > 0:17:03Really.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09I do something, as it goes.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14I can't. I mean, I've got responsibilities.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16I have to call Janet and William of a Monday, don't I?

0:17:16 > 0:17:19Bill, your phone'll still work in Blackpool, innit?

0:17:19 > 0:17:21Yeah, but I've still got a couple of shifts to do at the R&R.

0:17:21 > 0:17:25We've run out of electricity credit, and... Well, what about Lola, Phil?

0:17:25 > 0:17:30- I ain't a baby-sitter, Billy.- No, I know. But we've got one of them access visits today, haven't we?

0:17:30 > 0:17:34- That woman, Trish, is bringing Lexi round at half one.- Look, Billy, it's your choice, all right?

0:17:34 > 0:17:36You know, meet a few people, move a few motors.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38Four weeks' paid money, take it or leave it.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41- Think of the money, will you? - Oh, just go. I would.

0:17:41 > 0:17:45No, I'm just saying, it's not like you're going to miss anything, is it?

0:17:45 > 0:17:47What, me giving Lexi a bath for 20 minutes

0:17:47 > 0:17:50with that smug cow watching our every move.

0:17:50 > 0:17:51I'll be fine on my own.

0:17:52 > 0:17:53No, I can't leave her.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55Come on, Phil, she's family.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58All right, all right, all right...

0:17:58 > 0:17:59No, I'll be fine on my own.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02Just stop moaning like an old woman, will you? You know...

0:18:02 > 0:18:05- Lola can stay with me while you're gone away, all right?- Hello?!

0:18:05 > 0:18:08Has someone pressed my mute button? I will be fine on my own.

0:18:08 > 0:18:09No, you won't, all right?

0:18:09 > 0:18:12Phil is family, and we've got rent due on Thursday.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14OK, boys.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16- Got yourselves a deal. - Oh, smashing.- Right choice.

0:18:16 > 0:18:19- Safe journey, all right? Thank- you. - Speak to you later.- Yeah.

0:18:19 > 0:18:20Right, you, come on...

0:18:22 > 0:18:23- Be good, yeah?- Yes.

0:18:23 > 0:18:25I'll bring you back a stick of rock.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27I'll get Lexi one of them dummy things.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29And a lot of candy floss.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31Oh...

0:18:31 > 0:18:34- And a big, thick wad of cash. - How thick?

0:18:34 > 0:18:36About as thick as Phil is for paying me to go on holiday,

0:18:36 > 0:18:40and putting you up in his house at the same time. Must be losing his grip.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42- Muppet. - LOLA CHUCKLES

0:18:42 > 0:18:43Right, be good, all right?

0:18:43 > 0:18:46- I love you.- Yes. Love you.- Bye.- Bye.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54- CAR HORN - Billy!

0:18:54 > 0:18:55Bill...

0:18:56 > 0:18:58- Look at that for timing, will you? - What?

0:18:58 > 0:19:00That was Ritchie.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02- What was?- Ritchie. On the blower just now, er...

0:19:02 > 0:19:05- Alexa's dropped all the allegations against you.- What?

0:19:05 > 0:19:08Yeah, she's dropped all the allegations,

0:19:08 > 0:19:10and all the charges have been dropped against you.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12He did it! Pops told her, Phil!

0:19:12 > 0:19:15Yeah. Typical Billy, eh? Always in the wrong place at the wrong time.

0:19:15 > 0:19:19- Well, you'd better call him, eh? - Yeah, yeah. I'll call him. He's going to be so pleased!

0:19:19 > 0:19:22Maybe wait until he's got there, though, yeah?

0:19:22 > 0:19:24You know, with a baby in the house,

0:19:24 > 0:19:26he's going to need every penny he can get, ain't he?

0:19:26 > 0:19:27Oh, my God!

0:19:27 > 0:19:29Oh, my God, I'm going to get Lexi back!

0:19:29 > 0:19:32I don't know. I expect there'll be a bit of paperwork, but yeah.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34She's coming home? Lexi's coming home?

0:19:34 > 0:19:37I can't wait to see the look on that smug Trish's face.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39I'm getting my baby back home, ain't I!

0:19:39 > 0:19:40Yeah.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42THEY LAUGH

0:19:45 > 0:19:46Yeah, that's right, that's right.

0:19:46 > 0:19:47Ava Hartman.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53She works with you.

0:19:53 > 0:19:54SHE SIGHS

0:19:57 > 0:19:58Thank you.

0:19:58 > 0:19:59Thanks, that's great.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01That's great, thanks.

0:20:02 > 0:20:03SHE SIGHS

0:20:08 > 0:20:11Right, it's not the winning or the losing, yeah? It's the taking part.

0:20:13 > 0:20:16- Oh, no...no, sorry, that's netball. - You know, I'm going to...

0:20:16 > 0:20:17No, no.

0:20:17 > 0:20:18Twinkle, yeah?

0:20:18 > 0:20:20You have got to twinkle, Fats.

0:20:22 > 0:20:23Go.

0:20:31 > 0:20:32Um...

0:20:32 > 0:20:34I've seen you in the chemist.

0:20:38 > 0:20:42Twinkle. Twinkle, Fats. Come on, come on, twinkle, twinkle.

0:20:45 > 0:20:46So, erm...

0:20:46 > 0:20:48Listen, could I buy you a drink?

0:20:50 > 0:20:51- Yeah.- Yeah?

0:20:51 > 0:20:54Yeah? OK! All right!

0:20:55 > 0:20:56All right, great.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58- What you drinking?- Orange juice.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00Orange juice, great...

0:21:06 > 0:21:07No...

0:21:09 > 0:21:10No, I don't get lonely.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15I...I like being on my own, so it ain't lonely.

0:21:19 > 0:21:23I'm just saying that sometimes, if I'm going out anyway, then I...

0:21:23 > 0:21:25You shoplift, don't you?

0:21:25 > 0:21:28- SHE CHUCKLES - No.

0:21:29 > 0:21:33No, I just...I walk instead, or I sit on a tube...

0:21:33 > 0:21:34Pickpocket.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36Look at people.

0:21:36 > 0:21:37HE CHUCKLES

0:21:37 > 0:21:38All right, weirdo.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40SHE CHUCKLES

0:21:41 > 0:21:42I know.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45No, it's...I just...

0:21:45 > 0:21:47I just see if I can get them down.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49It's only for myself.

0:21:49 > 0:21:50Little scribbles, really. It's nothing.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53Oh, what, like the ad stuff your dad had you doing?

0:21:54 > 0:21:56- Yeah?- Yeah.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58- Well, go on, show me then.- No!

0:21:58 > 0:21:59- Why?- No way!- Why not?

0:21:59 > 0:22:01You can trust me.

0:22:03 > 0:22:04- Can I?- Yeah.

0:22:07 > 0:22:11How many girls have you said that to the past week?

0:22:11 > 0:22:12HE SIGHS

0:22:14 > 0:22:15Erm...

0:22:15 > 0:22:17None.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19All right?

0:22:19 > 0:22:21You're different.

0:22:24 > 0:22:27Yeah, you are. I mean, I know it's the way you were trained and everything,

0:22:27 > 0:22:31but seriously, five sentences just to say, "Oh, don't hold her upside down."

0:22:31 > 0:22:34Oh, and by the way, while we're on it, am I thick?

0:22:34 > 0:22:39Have you ever seen me hold her by her toenails? No, Cos you haven't got a kid, have you?

0:22:39 > 0:22:41But if you're ever lucky enough to get knocked up by some bloke,

0:22:41 > 0:22:45you might find out how offensive it is. It does my head in.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47What she means is, er...

0:22:47 > 0:22:50Thank you. And I'm sure we'll be seeing you around.

0:22:50 > 0:22:53Yes, well, now Lola's living here, you certainly will, Mr. Mitchell.

0:22:53 > 0:22:57- I could give you a copy of our schedule, if Lola's misplaced... - You what?

0:22:59 > 0:23:00Oh...

0:23:00 > 0:23:02What?

0:23:02 > 0:23:05There is a neglect case against Lola, you do know that, Mr Mitchell?

0:23:05 > 0:23:07So?

0:23:08 > 0:23:09So...

0:23:09 > 0:23:13the fact that the latest charges against you have been dropped

0:23:13 > 0:23:16doesn't affect Lexi's care order.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21You're not going to give me back my baby?

0:23:21 > 0:23:25Still, we've got...23 minutes left, haven't we?

0:23:25 > 0:23:28- You're not going to give me my own kid?- No...

0:23:28 > 0:23:29No, listen...

0:23:29 > 0:23:32I'm sure that the fact that you'll no longer face legal proceedings

0:23:32 > 0:23:34will ultimately stand in your favour.

0:23:34 > 0:23:3623 minutes,

0:23:36 > 0:23:39then you're going to take her away, again, and get her fostered, and...

0:23:39 > 0:23:41And I ain't even done anything wrong.

0:23:41 > 0:23:43Let's modify our behaviour, shall we?

0:23:43 > 0:23:45For the sake of baby?

0:23:45 > 0:23:46Right...

0:23:46 > 0:23:49And if you and Granddad would like to give Lexi a bath

0:23:49 > 0:23:51in your new home, Lola, well...

0:23:52 > 0:23:54I'll go and get it started. Upstairs, is it?

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Yeah.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59Come to Granddad. Eh?

0:23:59 > 0:24:00Here we go! Yeah.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06Give you a nice bath, eh?

0:24:06 > 0:24:07And, er...

0:24:07 > 0:24:09just so as you know,

0:24:09 > 0:24:11this ain't your new home.

0:24:11 > 0:24:13You're just visiting.

0:24:24 > 0:24:27Yeah, I knew you'd see sense.

0:24:27 > 0:24:29It ain't as if I've got anything against the boy per se,

0:24:29 > 0:24:32I mean, he is my flesh and blood after all...

0:24:32 > 0:24:33not that you'd know it.

0:24:33 > 0:24:36So you're going to give them a grand of your money, Del,

0:24:36 > 0:24:37if I show him the door.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40Kicking him out is the smart move, Max.

0:24:42 > 0:24:44No.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49That's a down payment...

0:24:49 > 0:24:51You tell 'em they'll have the rest on the 11th, yeah?

0:24:51 > 0:24:52Like we talked about.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56FATBOY CHUCKLES

0:24:56 > 0:24:59I like him, Del, all right? He's a good kid.

0:24:59 > 0:25:00All he needs is somewhere to put his head

0:25:00 > 0:25:02where he ain't got anyone gunning for him.

0:25:06 > 0:25:08You're playing with fire, Max.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11Yeah, well...

0:25:11 > 0:25:13I'll take that risk, Del.

0:25:14 > 0:25:15Cheers.

0:25:22 > 0:25:26OK. Well, aren't you meant to be calling that letting agency, yeah?

0:25:26 > 0:25:27Joey!

0:25:27 > 0:25:31I thought you wanted to see the flat above the kebab shop. Come on.

0:25:31 > 0:25:32These are really good.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36Yes, OK, thank you very much...

0:25:37 > 0:25:40- No, no, no! Don't, don't, don't! - Lauren...

0:25:41 > 0:25:43HE CHUCKLES

0:25:46 > 0:25:48HE LAUGHS

0:25:48 > 0:25:50What...

0:25:51 > 0:25:53What can I say? You have an ugly face.

0:25:53 > 0:25:56Yeah, and you're a stalker.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02An interesting ugly face.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07Well, that is the, er...

0:26:07 > 0:26:10That's the main difference between you and me, ain't it, Lauren?

0:26:10 > 0:26:12Cos at least my face is interesting.

0:26:15 > 0:26:16SHE CHUCKLES

0:26:25 > 0:26:27I love them.

0:26:32 > 0:26:33We're not doing this.

0:26:34 > 0:26:36We're not doing this.

0:26:36 > 0:26:37THEY LAUGH

0:26:47 > 0:26:51- Because... because some things are private...- Oh, see...

0:26:51 > 0:26:53My head is that all over the place, I've left my keys at home.

0:26:53 > 0:26:55Tanya, listen to me now, man.

0:26:55 > 0:26:58It's up to your mother to tell you in her own time. It's nobody else's business.

0:26:58 > 0:27:02Ava Hartman is my business, Patrick.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05- And I've found her.- Yeah. All right, yes, I know this is a big deal, but...

0:27:05 > 0:27:09My sister is alive and breathing, and I've found her,

0:27:09 > 0:27:12and she's living, according to the sat nav, 18 minutes from here.

0:27:12 > 0:27:15Patrick, I could have been passing her every day on the way to the supermarket.

0:27:15 > 0:27:18She could be the one at the wholesalers with the same hair as me.

0:27:18 > 0:27:20Come on now, man. all I'm saying is, look...

0:27:20 > 0:27:22Let's have a drink and let's think about this.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24Huh?

0:27:24 > 0:27:2648 years, Patrick.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29My mother has been lying about my sister,

0:27:29 > 0:27:32hiding her away from everyone, for 48 years.

0:27:32 > 0:27:34She's not going to change that habit now, is she?

0:27:36 > 0:27:38I mean, for all I know, Patrick,

0:27:38 > 0:27:41I could have given her a treatment in my salon.

0:27:42 > 0:27:43We could have been at the same school.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45I mean, for God's sake...

0:27:47 > 0:27:48I have to know.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52- And I've got an appointment with her.- Mm?

0:27:52 > 0:27:54- 3pm. Ava Hartman.- Today.

0:27:54 > 0:27:58And I'm going, Patrick, with or without you.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01I'm going to meet my sister.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11- Tanya. Just wait. Just wait! - The school's in Dalston.

0:28:11 > 0:28:14If we get a move on, we should be there in time.

0:28:14 > 0:28:16She's a deputy head.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18- Going to be a busy woman. - I don't want any part of this.

0:28:18 > 0:28:22Oh, right, now you decide you don't want to be a part of this. Yeah?

0:28:22 > 0:28:26Well, sorry, Patrick, but it's you she trusted. Right?

0:28:26 > 0:28:30- You she confided in. Not me.- This should be your mother's decision.

0:28:30 > 0:28:34My mother lied to me, Patrick, she told me my own sister was dead!

0:28:34 > 0:28:35You think that deserves respect?

0:28:35 > 0:28:38You want the whole Square to know your business?

0:28:40 > 0:28:41Look, Tanya, wait.

0:28:49 > 0:28:51Hey.

0:29:09 > 0:29:12There's a woman out there who's been brought up without her family.

0:29:12 > 0:29:14Me and Rainie have gone our whole lives

0:29:14 > 0:29:17not even knowing we had another sister.

0:29:17 > 0:29:19The damage has already been done. I have to go.

0:29:19 > 0:29:23No. You don't.

0:29:34 > 0:29:37What are you thinking?

0:29:39 > 0:29:41You don't want to know.

0:29:43 > 0:29:48Look, Lauren, what happened, it...

0:29:50 > 0:29:54..it was different. You know.

0:29:59 > 0:30:00Special.

0:30:06 > 0:30:08You can't even look at me now.

0:30:17 > 0:30:19I think you should go.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21No, no...

0:30:21 > 0:30:25Can you just go, please? Just get out.

0:30:25 > 0:30:27OK.

0:30:39 > 0:30:41Patrick, do you think I'm enjoying this?

0:30:41 > 0:30:45Do you think I'm not petrified that she might hate me,

0:30:45 > 0:30:47she might reject all of us?

0:30:47 > 0:30:49I mean, she's a deputy head.

0:30:49 > 0:30:50At least she'll have had a choice.

0:30:50 > 0:30:53A choice my mother took away from her.

0:30:55 > 0:30:57Please!

0:30:59 > 0:31:04I can't let you go on your own. Get in. Let's drive.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27I can't find my other trainer.

0:31:27 > 0:31:32Alice, angel, when you asked me what soup I want, what did I say?

0:31:32 > 0:31:35- Anything but mullita... - Mulligatawny.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37- Mulligatawny or oxtail. - Yeah. So what's this?

0:31:37 > 0:31:41- French onion.- It's disgusting. - My trainer?

0:31:41 > 0:31:42DOORBELL RINGS

0:31:42 > 0:31:45Oh, don't worry, Dad! I'll get it.

0:31:45 > 0:31:47French onion soup!

0:31:47 > 0:31:50Since when do the French know anything about food?

0:31:52 > 0:31:57Alice, you got five minutes? Thought we could go to the caff.

0:31:57 > 0:31:59Now.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02OK.

0:32:04 > 0:32:06Ignore him.

0:32:07 > 0:32:10He doesn't like his soup.

0:32:10 > 0:32:13Right. Let's go.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16Yeah, that's it. You go off.

0:32:16 > 0:32:17Have a good laugh about me.

0:32:17 > 0:32:20Why don't you come and watch me practise?

0:32:20 > 0:32:23Ray says you're more than welcome. You can see what it's all about.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26I know what it's all about! And it's not ladylike.

0:32:27 > 0:32:30You are going to wash that up, aren't you? See you!

0:32:32 > 0:32:37There you are! I've called you, like, at least a dozen times.

0:32:37 > 0:32:38Yeah. Sorry, Pops, man.

0:32:38 > 0:32:40I've had to, you know, keep my line clear.

0:32:40 > 0:32:44For Sylvia? How did it go?

0:32:44 > 0:32:47Well, she took my number, so we'll see.

0:32:47 > 0:32:48Well, look at you.

0:32:48 > 0:32:51What red-blooded woman could say no to that, eh?

0:32:51 > 0:32:54But I suppose it is only my superior makeover skills

0:32:54 > 0:32:57that could make you look this hot, right?

0:32:57 > 0:33:00- So she took your number. Yeah? - Mm-hmm.

0:33:00 > 0:33:04Well, that's great. Um, but did she give you her number?

0:33:04 > 0:33:06Well, yeah.

0:33:08 > 0:33:10So, Pops, listen.

0:33:10 > 0:33:14How long till I'm allowed to give her a call?

0:33:15 > 0:33:21Come on, what is it? Is it family, money, a boy?

0:33:24 > 0:33:26Two out of three.

0:33:27 > 0:33:29You met someone?

0:33:35 > 0:33:36You ready to talk holidays?

0:33:46 > 0:33:48You've been caught, haven't you?

0:33:48 > 0:33:52You've done something dodgy, you've been caught

0:33:52 > 0:33:53and don't know how to tell me.

0:33:55 > 0:33:58I'd rather know the truth.

0:33:58 > 0:34:00I'll only worry.

0:34:00 > 0:34:03It's me who should be worried, Alice, about you.

0:34:03 > 0:34:06Living with Derek. I won't always be around.

0:34:06 > 0:34:09You're not moving on?

0:34:09 > 0:34:11Dunno what I'm doing.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13I'll talk to Dad again.

0:34:13 > 0:34:19No. no. Alice, look, let's just get to the gym, eh?

0:34:20 > 0:34:23Still can't believe you can floor a bloke.

0:34:29 > 0:34:30All right?

0:34:30 > 0:34:32All right?

0:34:32 > 0:34:35Shame I'm not working today, I'm much fussier about my customers.

0:34:35 > 0:34:40Yeah, you should have someone on the doors, keep all the scumbags out.

0:34:45 > 0:34:47Bye, Joey!

0:34:49 > 0:34:53You know, Lucy, I can understand, but I thought we were family!

0:34:53 > 0:34:55- You glad he's going?- What?

0:34:55 > 0:34:58You might not care about him, but that's my brother you've driven away.

0:35:05 > 0:35:08I wasn't interested in the type of workout

0:35:08 > 0:35:10she was offering, all right?

0:35:10 > 0:35:13I had to practically tell her I was gay, just to get her to get off me!

0:35:13 > 0:35:15Oh, so, what, she took one look at your biceps

0:35:15 > 0:35:18and forgot she was here doing an Health and Safety inspection?

0:35:18 > 0:35:21Mate, mate, mate. Listen, all I can say is, you know,

0:35:21 > 0:35:24sometimes they don't always go for the empty-headed pretty boy.

0:35:24 > 0:35:28- HE LAUGHS - Pretty? Did you just call me pretty?

0:35:28 > 0:35:30Wonder what she'd think if she heard you talk about her like that.

0:35:30 > 0:35:32Who?

0:35:32 > 0:35:35Not really the place for young ladies, is it?

0:35:35 > 0:35:37We talking about Alice?

0:35:37 > 0:35:42She's not cut out for this. It's... It's not ladylike.

0:35:42 > 0:35:45If you think women are independent, confident and strong,

0:35:45 > 0:35:47then I would say it's pretty ladylike.

0:35:50 > 0:35:53- I want you to put a stop to it. - She's a grown woman, Derek, man.

0:35:53 > 0:35:55- She's a child!- She's old enough to make her own decisions.

0:35:55 > 0:35:57I doubt you deal with your own daughter this way.

0:35:57 > 0:36:00If I wanted to push my daughter away, I'd come to you for advice.

0:36:07 > 0:36:09I need a favour, Jack.

0:36:09 > 0:36:13I want you to put the kibosh on this nonsense between Alice and him.

0:36:13 > 0:36:14Why?

0:36:14 > 0:36:16Because it's not...appropriate.

0:36:16 > 0:36:18Right. It ain't 1853 any more, Derek.

0:36:18 > 0:36:21Yeah. Women, they've got the vote and everything now.

0:36:21 > 0:36:24They even let them drive these days. Can you believe it?

0:36:24 > 0:36:26- PHONE RINGS - Oh, hang on.

0:36:26 > 0:36:27Hello? Hello, mate.

0:36:27 > 0:36:32Listen, I've got an exhibition at the gym tomorrow, if you fancy it?

0:36:41 > 0:36:45When I said girls' holiday, I meant, like, roof terraces and cocktails,

0:36:45 > 0:36:46not frostbite and stag dos.

0:36:46 > 0:36:51Newcastle's a wicked night out. Isn't it, Lauren?

0:36:52 > 0:36:54How hard is it to fry an egg?

0:37:01 > 0:37:05Two out of three, you said. Money, family, boys.

0:37:05 > 0:37:08Yeah, well, you know what I'm like...

0:37:08 > 0:37:09BOTH: Drama queen.

0:37:09 > 0:37:11THEY GIGGLE

0:37:11 > 0:37:13Going to tell me which two?

0:37:14 > 0:37:16Well, I'm skint...

0:37:16 > 0:37:19and my family do my head in.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22So it's got to be a boy, then, hasn't it?

0:37:23 > 0:37:25You can tell me anything, Lauren.

0:37:25 > 0:37:28Do you think you can shock me, of all people?

0:37:28 > 0:37:30I'm not going to judge you.

0:37:33 > 0:37:35I've got to go.

0:37:35 > 0:37:38Sorry.

0:37:44 > 0:37:48'Hi, this is Joey. Please leave a message.'

0:38:01 > 0:38:03You OK?

0:38:03 > 0:38:06Listen, thanks for helping me out tomorrow.

0:38:06 > 0:38:07I'm looking forward to it.

0:38:07 > 0:38:10It's a shame the old man ain't. I said to him earlier,

0:38:10 > 0:38:13"She's my niece, I'm not going to let anything happen to her."

0:38:13 > 0:38:16- Dad's been here?- Yep. Flinging his weight around, as usual.

0:38:16 > 0:38:19Wants to put the kibosh on you helping out tomorrow.

0:38:19 > 0:38:20You're joking?!

0:38:20 > 0:38:23He's just worried about his daughter, that's all.

0:38:23 > 0:38:24In Derek's own little way, yeah.

0:38:24 > 0:38:28Babe, you know dads and their daughters.

0:38:28 > 0:38:32Curfews, sleepovers, Sasha's always going on about how I'm too extra.

0:38:48 > 0:38:51Where'd you disappear to?

0:38:51 > 0:38:55It's all right. Don't bother, you're here now.

0:38:57 > 0:38:58Right...

0:39:00 > 0:39:07Special offers - extended warranties, monthly valets.

0:39:07 > 0:39:09I want you to put these in these envelopes

0:39:09 > 0:39:13and stuff 'em into hundreds of doors. All right?

0:39:13 > 0:39:15OK.

0:39:15 > 0:39:17Well, that was easier than I thought.

0:39:19 > 0:39:20Have we got money trouble?

0:39:20 > 0:39:22Why'd you say that?

0:39:22 > 0:39:26You could cut down on the wedding stuff. Mum wouldn't mind.

0:39:26 > 0:39:29Babe, no-one's cutting back on any wedding.

0:39:29 > 0:39:31It's the economic climate, innit?

0:39:34 > 0:39:35What?

0:39:37 > 0:39:40Bet you think me and your mum are mad, don't you,

0:39:40 > 0:39:42getting married again?

0:39:42 > 0:39:45It's just love, Lauren.

0:39:45 > 0:39:48Love comes in, common sense flies out the window.

0:39:48 > 0:39:51You do things that other people think are mad.

0:39:51 > 0:39:54Mind you, it don't matter what other people think, does it?

0:39:54 > 0:39:58Two of those in each envelope. Crack on.

0:40:00 > 0:40:02Can I... Can I do this later?

0:40:02 > 0:40:06No. Lauren. Lauren!

0:40:13 > 0:40:17Don't tell me, the gaff's on fire. Is your dad...?

0:40:19 > 0:40:20Kids!

0:40:27 > 0:40:30Right!

0:40:32 > 0:40:34You're making a big mistake, you know.

0:40:34 > 0:40:36Maybe.

0:40:39 > 0:40:41But doing nothing's worse.

0:41:03 > 0:41:05Del, is this going to take long?

0:41:05 > 0:41:10Right, I want you to pull rank on Jack.

0:41:10 > 0:41:12HE LAUGHS

0:41:12 > 0:41:14What do you mean, pull rank?

0:41:14 > 0:41:17Why is everything I say so funny, all of a sudden?

0:41:17 > 0:41:19He listens to you, don't he?

0:41:19 > 0:41:21Oh, yeah, yeah. You reckon, do you?

0:41:21 > 0:41:22Come on, Max.

0:41:22 > 0:41:25I've got a bitter, twisted son.

0:41:25 > 0:41:28I've got an even more bitter and twisted ex-wife.

0:41:28 > 0:41:32I could pack my worldly belongings in a bin-bag.

0:41:32 > 0:41:33Only thing I got left is my Alice.

0:41:33 > 0:41:36All I want Jack to do is to knock this kung fu business

0:41:36 > 0:41:38with Sugar Ray Leonard on the head.

0:41:38 > 0:41:42Well, Lauren tells me she's really good.

0:41:43 > 0:41:47You should go and watch, Derek, proud dad an' all that.

0:41:47 > 0:41:48What if she gets hurt?

0:41:48 > 0:41:50She ain't cage-fighting, is she? Self-defence.

0:41:50 > 0:41:52So she can look after herself.

0:41:52 > 0:41:54But I'm the one who's supposed to do that.

0:41:54 > 0:41:57Yeah, when she was about eight, Derek. Want my advice?

0:41:57 > 0:41:59Don't come down too heavy with her,

0:41:59 > 0:42:01you'll end up pushing her away, like you did with Joey.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03Is that what you want?

0:42:04 > 0:42:07It's hard, Del, I know it is, letting 'em go.

0:42:09 > 0:42:11Del, just go easy on her. All right?

0:42:11 > 0:42:13Don't want to risk losing your daughter,

0:42:13 > 0:42:14as well as your son, do you?

0:42:20 > 0:42:22Thanks, Max.

0:42:30 > 0:42:32Where have you been?

0:42:32 > 0:42:34Why do you care, eh, Lauren?

0:42:34 > 0:42:37I mean, I'm just some scumbag you couldn't bear the sight of earlier.

0:42:37 > 0:42:39I thought...

0:42:39 > 0:42:41I was such a cow to you in the caff earlier,

0:42:41 > 0:42:43and then I couldn't find you and your phone was off,

0:42:43 > 0:42:47and Alice said you'd had enough. I thought you'd gone.

0:42:47 > 0:42:49Well, you told me to go.

0:42:49 > 0:42:53Yes, because I was freaking out. Me and you...

0:42:53 > 0:42:57It was never just going to stop there, because it can't.

0:42:57 > 0:43:02It can't just stop there, and then what?

0:43:02 > 0:43:03I was scared.

0:43:03 > 0:43:05Terrified.

0:43:07 > 0:43:11But not as scared as when I thought I'd lost you.

0:43:12 > 0:43:19You know what you said earlier, about it being special...

0:43:20 > 0:43:22..did you mean it?

0:43:26 > 0:43:28Did you?

0:44:00 > 0:44:03This what it's come to, Derek, is it?

0:44:03 > 0:44:05Standing about in alleyways to get your kicks?

0:44:05 > 0:44:08- Looks like I'm not the only one. - Yeah, yeah, very funny. Do you mind?

0:44:08 > 0:44:11Go on, son, you knock yourself out.

0:44:11 > 0:44:13HE CHUCKLES

0:44:13 > 0:44:18I'd find out where he's been, if I was you, darling!

0:44:23 > 0:44:25CHILDREN CHATTER

0:44:25 > 0:44:29She's late. Why d'you think she's late?

0:44:29 > 0:44:32I'm going to ask someone. I'll just find someone to ask.

0:44:32 > 0:44:34- Oh!- Watch it!

0:44:34 > 0:44:36You want to watch where you're going!

0:44:36 > 0:44:38I am so sorry.

0:44:38 > 0:44:40It's fine! It's fine. This is great.

0:44:40 > 0:44:42This is just how I wanted Ava to see me!

0:44:42 > 0:44:44Are you my 3:00?

0:44:44 > 0:44:47No, we've got a meeting with the Deputy Head.

0:44:47 > 0:44:49Yeah. I got roped into helping with the cookery.

0:44:49 > 0:44:52Not my finest subject, so maybe our encounter was fate.

0:44:52 > 0:44:54Sorry?

0:44:54 > 0:44:57Saving London from my terrible baking. Ava Hartman.

0:44:59 > 0:45:01- Hi.- Hi.

0:45:06 > 0:45:08Hey. What's the matter?

0:45:10 > 0:45:12Your dad. My dad.

0:45:12 > 0:45:17Forget about them. All right? Lauren, this is about me and you.

0:45:17 > 0:45:20We just need to trust each other, that's all.

0:45:20 > 0:45:22You do trust me, don't you?

0:45:26 > 0:45:28Look, Lauren,

0:45:28 > 0:45:32as long as we love each other, that's all that matters.

0:45:33 > 0:45:35What did you just say?

0:45:41 > 0:45:43I love you.

0:45:50 > 0:45:52Thanks.

0:46:03 > 0:46:08So you're thinking of sending your son to Lock Road Primary?

0:46:08 > 0:46:11Yeah. We're moving to the area.

0:46:11 > 0:46:14And Granddad's come along to check us out as well, has he?

0:46:14 > 0:46:16No. I'm just a family friend.

0:46:16 > 0:46:20Right. Well, you're very welcome.

0:46:20 > 0:46:22Have you got any specific questions?

0:46:25 > 0:46:28Sports. What sports do you do?

0:46:28 > 0:46:33Has no-one given you a prospectus? Let me just fetch you one.

0:46:35 > 0:46:38If you're going to do this, you need to put that woman out of her misery.

0:46:38 > 0:46:41Why didn't Mum tell me? Did you know?

0:46:41 > 0:46:42Know what?

0:46:42 > 0:46:44You know what.

0:46:44 > 0:46:47The colour of Ava's skin? Of course not.

0:46:47 > 0:46:48Does it make a difference?

0:46:50 > 0:46:51Obviously so.

0:46:51 > 0:46:53No, no, no, that's not what I meant!

0:46:53 > 0:46:55That's not it at all. I'm just a bit shocked.

0:46:55 > 0:46:57Why wouldn't she mention...?

0:46:57 > 0:46:59There you go.

0:47:00 > 0:47:02Shall we start the tour?

0:47:02 > 0:47:06- Then you can ask questions on the way round.- Great.

0:47:26 > 0:47:28- Hiya.- Oh, all right?

0:47:28 > 0:47:30Yeah. So...

0:47:30 > 0:47:32Listen, d'you want to do something?

0:47:32 > 0:47:35I keep getting texts on my phone, you know, pizza - two for one,

0:47:35 > 0:47:36and all that rubbish.

0:47:36 > 0:47:40Shouldn't you be keeping your evening clear, as well as your phone line?

0:47:40 > 0:47:41For what?

0:47:41 > 0:47:44For when Sylvia inevitably calls to see if you want to hook up.

0:47:44 > 0:47:47She's probably washing her weave or something, babe.

0:47:47 > 0:47:48That's a bit negative.

0:47:48 > 0:47:52Well, you know, if she was into me, she'd text me, innit? But...

0:47:52 > 0:47:54TEXT ALERT

0:47:55 > 0:47:57Is that her? HE CHUCKLES

0:47:57 > 0:48:00Oh, I knew she couldn't say no! Go on. What's it say?

0:48:05 > 0:48:08Oh, Fats.

0:48:29 > 0:48:31Is Oscar your only child?

0:48:31 > 0:48:35No, I've got two girls, teenagers. How about you?

0:48:35 > 0:48:38You know when people say they're married to their job?

0:48:38 > 0:48:42Mine came with hundreds and hundreds of children.

0:48:42 > 0:48:45- I bet the kids love you. - I'm not sure they'd always agree.

0:48:45 > 0:48:47For some of our kids, though,

0:48:47 > 0:48:50I am the closest thing they get to stability.

0:48:50 > 0:48:52- Children need stability.- Yeah.

0:48:53 > 0:48:59They also need close family. Don't you think, Ms Hartman?

0:48:59 > 0:49:01If I could have one wish for every child,

0:49:01 > 0:49:03it wouldn't be a holiday to Disney World

0:49:03 > 0:49:06or a big trampoline in the back garden, it would be just that.

0:49:06 > 0:49:08Me too!

0:49:09 > 0:49:11The thing is...

0:49:11 > 0:49:16Jayden, what have I told you about being out of the classroom?

0:49:17 > 0:49:19It... It's not allowed.

0:49:19 > 0:49:21Then what are you doing in the corridor?

0:49:21 > 0:49:24Sorry, Ms Hartman.

0:49:28 > 0:49:30It's all right, sweetheart, it's not your fault.

0:49:30 > 0:49:33Shall we get you cleaned up?

0:49:33 > 0:49:36And what do I have to do to get a smile?

0:49:36 > 0:49:39Oh, so handsome! ..Sorry. What were you saying?

0:49:41 > 0:49:44Nothing. Sorry. I've...

0:49:44 > 0:49:45I think...

0:49:57 > 0:49:59She wasn't good enough for you, anyway.

0:49:59 > 0:50:03- Yeah?- Yeah. Greasy roots, dry ends.

0:50:03 > 0:50:08I always imagine you on the arm of some gorgeous TV presenter/model.

0:50:08 > 0:50:09Like Carol Vorderman?

0:50:09 > 0:50:12Yeah! Yeah.

0:50:12 > 0:50:17Look, Fats, you're very special, you know.

0:50:17 > 0:50:21Different. And...unique!

0:50:21 > 0:50:23Thanks.

0:50:23 > 0:50:25And when you're different,

0:50:25 > 0:50:30- it's worth waiting for someone who's a bit different, too.- Yeah.

0:50:31 > 0:50:34PHONE RINGS

0:50:34 > 0:50:37It's my sister, I'd better get it.

0:50:37 > 0:50:40Well, hello, Miss Meadow!

0:50:43 > 0:50:44No!

0:50:44 > 0:50:46What? Are you serious?

0:50:48 > 0:50:51OK... Bye.

0:50:57 > 0:51:00That was my sister, Tansy.

0:51:00 > 0:51:03Yeah, you said. So what's happened?

0:51:03 > 0:51:06She's coming to visit. Tomorrow.

0:51:06 > 0:51:09Oh, that's good, innit?

0:51:09 > 0:51:10SHE SIGHS

0:51:10 > 0:51:12Or not!

0:51:29 > 0:51:32She doesn't deserve it.

0:51:32 > 0:51:35My family and our chaos. My mum.

0:51:36 > 0:51:42I mean, you saw her, she's, she's so...

0:51:43 > 0:51:45I couldn't do it!

0:51:45 > 0:51:47- You did the right thing.- Did I?

0:51:48 > 0:51:51She's my flesh and blood.

0:51:51 > 0:51:57She's the same as Rainie, she's the same as...

0:51:57 > 0:52:00Lauren, and Abi, and Oscar.

0:52:02 > 0:52:03Imagine it.

0:52:03 > 0:52:06Imagine never knowing who your mum was, why she gave you away.

0:52:06 > 0:52:10Come on, now, man, you think it was that simple?

0:52:10 > 0:52:12Your mother just gave her away?

0:52:12 > 0:52:14I would die before I walked away from my kids.

0:52:14 > 0:52:18Just take a look. Everybody playing together.

0:52:20 > 0:52:24You weren't here in the '50s, or '60s. I was. Cora was.

0:52:26 > 0:52:28You'll never understand.

0:52:30 > 0:52:32You mean because Ava's dad was...?

0:52:33 > 0:52:38Say it. Black, or dark, or coloured.

0:52:38 > 0:52:43You're saying my mum didn't want Ava because of the colour of her skin?

0:52:43 > 0:52:45That's just... That's even worse!

0:52:45 > 0:52:47Come on, listen to me now, man,

0:52:47 > 0:52:50your mother was no more than a kid herself.

0:52:50 > 0:52:52Maybe she didn't have a choice.

0:52:52 > 0:52:55What do you think she went through, giving that baby up?

0:52:55 > 0:52:56You think it didn't bother her,

0:52:56 > 0:53:00that she didn't think about that child every single day? Come on!

0:53:00 > 0:53:06She had to deal with that all these years on her own.

0:53:09 > 0:53:13Tanya, my mother used to say,

0:53:13 > 0:53:19"Son, let sleeping dogs lie. That way, nobody gets bitten."

0:53:45 > 0:53:47You won't say anything to Mum, will you?

0:53:47 > 0:53:50Let's forget this day ever happened, eh?

0:53:50 > 0:53:53Leave the past where it belongs. OK?

0:53:54 > 0:53:57ENGINE STARTS

0:54:02 > 0:54:03Mrs Cross!

0:54:27 > 0:54:28HE CLEARS THROAT

0:54:28 > 0:54:30Oh, and I got you these.

0:54:32 > 0:54:36Look, I'm sorry, Alice. I was out of order.

0:54:36 > 0:54:39You went behind my back, to Uncle Jack, and Ray.

0:54:39 > 0:54:41Now, hold on a minute...

0:54:41 > 0:54:43You can stuff these stupid flowers!

0:54:43 > 0:54:46You think that no matter what you do, no matter how much it hurts me,

0:54:46 > 0:54:49you can make it OK with a pathetic bunch of flowers!

0:54:49 > 0:54:51It's not OK!

0:54:51 > 0:54:52Let me explain what happened.

0:54:52 > 0:54:56A good dad would just trust me to make my own friends.

0:54:56 > 0:54:58Oh, what, and Ray's your friend, is he?

0:54:58 > 0:55:00Big strong Ray, your special friend?

0:55:00 > 0:55:01That's disgusting.

0:55:01 > 0:55:04I did go to the gym this morning, Alice. I admit it.

0:55:04 > 0:55:05But I went there to tell him

0:55:05 > 0:55:08that I would give you my full support tomorrow.

0:55:08 > 0:55:09That's not what he said.

0:55:09 > 0:55:10Well, he wouldn't, would he?

0:55:10 > 0:55:13Look, Alice, I don't know what...

0:55:13 > 0:55:17I don't know about this crush you've got on him.

0:55:17 > 0:55:19You told Ray I've got a crush on him?

0:55:19 > 0:55:20No. He told me.

0:55:20 > 0:55:23And he's starting to feel a bit awkward about it.

0:55:23 > 0:55:26Let's face it, Alice, you're hardly his type, are you?

0:55:26 > 0:55:28And you should've heard the way that him and Jack

0:55:28 > 0:55:31were talking about some poor woman this morning,

0:55:31 > 0:55:32like she was a piece of meat.

0:55:32 > 0:55:35- Ray's not like that. - I'm afraid he is.

0:55:35 > 0:55:37And he said he thinks it's about time

0:55:37 > 0:55:40that you bang this gym stuff on the head.

0:55:41 > 0:55:44I thought Ray was my friend.

0:55:46 > 0:55:49Look, angel, I don't want you to make a fool of yourself.

0:55:49 > 0:55:52I mean, I wouldn't be a proper father

0:55:52 > 0:55:55if I didn't look out for you, would I?

0:55:57 > 0:56:00Oh, come here.

0:56:00 > 0:56:02Come on.

0:56:02 > 0:56:04It's all right.

0:56:11 > 0:56:13Do you want a cup of tea?

0:56:16 > 0:56:17Tan?

0:56:18 > 0:56:21Where's your head at this morning?

0:56:21 > 0:56:23You all right?

0:56:23 > 0:56:25You've barely said a word since yesterday.

0:56:25 > 0:56:27Why can't I just learn to leave things alone, eh?

0:56:27 > 0:56:29She did warn me. But, no, I thought I knew best.

0:56:29 > 0:56:32- What are you talking about? - Mum.- Oh, right.

0:56:32 > 0:56:34What's she done now?

0:56:36 > 0:56:38Max. She didn't have anyone, you know.

0:56:38 > 0:56:41She had to go through it all on her own.

0:56:41 > 0:56:43Sorry, just hold that thought, all right?

0:56:43 > 0:56:47Lauren? What happened to these flyers I asked you to do yesterday?

0:56:47 > 0:56:49- Oh. Yes. Next on my list, I promise. - No, no, no. No list.

0:56:49 > 0:56:52- You're going to stay here till the job's done.- What about Joey?

0:56:52 > 0:56:54- Jack's asked if he can help him out at the gym.- Yep. Unlucky.

0:56:54 > 0:56:57- Well, you can't keep me here against my will.- Joey, tell her.

0:56:57 > 0:57:00Sooner you get them done, sooner you'll be out.

0:57:00 > 0:57:01See? Listen to him. Good influence. Come on.

0:57:04 > 0:57:06Won't take you that long.

0:57:08 > 0:57:10- Where are you going? - To put things right.

0:57:16 > 0:57:19# She gets too hungry

0:57:19 > 0:57:22# For dinner at eight

0:57:24 > 0:57:27# She likes the theatre

0:57:27 > 0:57:30# But never comes late

0:57:30 > 0:57:31# She... #

0:57:31 > 0:57:33KNOCK AT DOOR

0:57:34 > 0:57:36I hope you've brought your hipflask!

0:57:46 > 0:57:47You look nice.

0:57:47 > 0:57:50Patrick's taking me to a swing band over in Greenwich.

0:57:50 > 0:57:52Oh, that's a shame.

0:57:52 > 0:57:54I was hoping we might be able to spend the afternoon together.

0:57:56 > 0:57:57Me and you?

0:57:59 > 0:58:00Why not?

0:58:00 > 0:58:02It's not really us, is it?

0:58:02 > 0:58:05Sitting down to do a jigsaw?

0:58:05 > 0:58:07I was thinking more along the lines of my wedding cake.

0:58:07 > 0:58:09We're on a bit of a budget, aren't we?

0:58:09 > 0:58:11And I thought if we start the fruit cake now

0:58:11 > 0:58:13then we've only go to do the icing nearer the time.

0:58:13 > 0:58:16I hope you've been practising your moves, you know,

0:58:16 > 0:58:19because these hips of mine are ready for some gyrating...

0:58:19 > 0:58:21- Oh. Tanya.- Hiya.

0:58:22 > 0:58:24I was hoping to spend some quality time with my mum.

0:58:24 > 0:58:27I told her we've got plans.

0:58:27 > 0:58:30Why don't the both of you just go off and have some fun?

0:58:32 > 0:58:35Anyway, look, those Rat Pack boys we were going to see,

0:58:35 > 0:58:37they don't have a patch on the Mighty Sparrow.

0:58:41 > 0:58:44Come on. What have you done?

0:58:44 > 0:58:46Eh? I haven't done anything.

0:58:46 > 0:58:48Honestly, Mum!

0:58:48 > 0:58:51Can't I just spend a bit of quality time with you

0:58:51 > 0:58:53without the third degree?

0:58:53 > 0:58:55All right.

0:58:55 > 0:58:57Give me a minute to get out of this.

0:58:57 > 0:58:58Great. I'll see you at mine.

0:59:20 > 0:59:23- All right, love? - What were you doing in Dalston?

0:59:24 > 0:59:27I was...just...thinking of sending Oscar there, that's all.

0:59:27 > 0:59:31- What?! It's miles away. - I was just doing a bit of research. It's no big deal.

0:59:31 > 0:59:33Yeah, but Dalston?! Come on.

0:59:33 > 0:59:36All right, stop going on about it. It's not happening, so...

0:59:36 > 0:59:38Anyway. Never mind all that.

0:59:38 > 0:59:41What's going on in your life at the moment?

0:59:41 > 0:59:43Um, that would be a big fat nothing.

0:59:45 > 0:59:47No boy on the scene?

0:59:47 > 0:59:49What? Why would you say that?

0:59:49 > 0:59:53I don't know. There's just something different about you.

0:59:53 > 0:59:56- Like what?- A glow, maybe.

0:59:56 > 1:00:00Uh. Yeah. That's probably Lucy's new fake tan or something.

1:00:00 > 1:00:02Yeah. Yeah, probably.

1:00:02 > 1:00:04All right, Lauren. Clear the table, will you, please?

1:00:04 > 1:00:08Yes, cos I'm all done now. So, is my house arrest over?

1:00:08 > 1:00:10Yeah. Go on. Clear off.

1:00:10 > 1:00:12SHE CHUCKLES

1:00:12 > 1:00:13Dalston(!)

1:00:16 > 1:00:17What's she talking about?

1:00:17 > 1:00:19No idea. What are you doing?

1:00:19 > 1:00:23I've got the accountant on my back, ain't I? Keeps telling me to sort the books.

1:00:23 > 1:00:25- No, you can't do that there.- Why?

1:00:25 > 1:00:27Cos my mum's coming round to bake a cake.

1:00:27 > 1:00:29Yeah. Pull the other one.

1:00:29 > 1:00:31It's true!

1:00:31 > 1:00:33DOORBELL RINGS

1:00:41 > 1:00:43- You all right?- Yeah, you?- Yeah.

1:00:43 > 1:00:46So, you going to come down the gym, see Joey in action?

1:00:47 > 1:00:51Yeah, I might as well, yeah. Seeing as Tanya's turfed me out.

1:00:51 > 1:00:53Tan. Got the launch of this new boxing scheme,

1:00:53 > 1:00:55if you fancy coming along?

1:00:55 > 1:00:58- No, you're all right. - She's got her lover coming round.

1:00:58 > 1:01:01Just make sure he does his accounts. Thank you.

1:01:01 > 1:01:03It's like a knife through the heart.

1:01:03 > 1:01:05- See you.- Have fun.- See you later.

1:01:11 > 1:01:14Well, I blame Ray, myself. All that talk about jujitsu.

1:01:14 > 1:01:16- It's self-defence. - Yeah, whatever!

1:01:16 > 1:01:18I warned you about him, didn't I?

1:01:18 > 1:01:22Yeah? But you had to go find out for yourself, didn't you?

1:01:22 > 1:01:24Now, don't get all upset. Eh?

1:01:24 > 1:01:27I only told you this so that you wouldn't get hurt later.

1:01:27 > 1:01:29Now come on. I'm your old man.

1:01:29 > 1:01:32I'm supposed to look after you, ain't I? Eh?

1:01:32 > 1:01:34- Oi, oi. What's he done now? - Do you mind?

1:01:34 > 1:01:37We're having a father-daughter moment here, thank you very much.

1:01:37 > 1:01:38I've got to be somewhere.

1:01:44 > 1:01:47I hope he ain't taking advantage of your old man's hospitality?

1:01:47 > 1:01:49What's that supposed to mean?

1:01:49 > 1:01:52I saw him in an alleyway over there yesterday with some bit of skirt.

1:01:52 > 1:01:55Right rough sort as well, by the looks of her.

1:01:55 > 1:01:56Get off on it, did you?

1:01:56 > 1:01:57HE CHUCKLES

1:02:00 > 1:02:02I warned Max.

1:02:02 > 1:02:04I said, "That boy's beyond help.

1:02:04 > 1:02:06"He's damaged goods."

1:02:06 > 1:02:08HE CHUCKLES

1:02:08 > 1:02:10Oh, I don't know how he gets away with it.

1:02:10 > 1:02:12If he's not picking on Lucy then he's winding my mum up.

1:02:12 > 1:02:15And my dad just sits there and does nothing.

1:02:15 > 1:02:18One day he's going to get what's coming to him. Trust me.

1:02:20 > 1:02:22Still, it's nice. A bit of companionship at their age.

1:02:22 > 1:02:25I've forgotten sultanas.

1:02:25 > 1:02:28You never know. There could be a double wedding, couldn't there?

1:02:28 > 1:02:30What's this about a wedding?

1:02:30 > 1:02:32Patrick and Cora.

1:02:32 > 1:02:35- You're as good as family. - That's just what I was saying.

1:02:35 > 1:02:39Although what he sees in old iron knickers when there's prime beef across the street...

1:02:39 > 1:02:40THEY LAUGH

1:02:40 > 1:02:44OK. What we got there? That's...£10.60, please.

1:02:46 > 1:02:48It was in here yesterday.

1:02:48 > 1:02:52Oh, always losing my purse. Where did you last have it?

1:02:52 > 1:02:55Um... Well, I had it yesterday lunch, cos I got some petrol.

1:02:55 > 1:02:58- I expect one of your lot swiped it. - I doubt that very much.

1:03:00 > 1:03:03Well, look, you can pay me later then, yeah?

1:03:03 > 1:03:05- Do you mind?- No! - Oh, sorry.- It's fine.

1:03:05 > 1:03:08You know, we should get together some time. Make a night of it.

1:03:08 > 1:03:11- Yeah, that'd be great.- Yeah. I'll text you some dates later.

1:03:11 > 1:03:13OK, thanks. Bye.

1:03:13 > 1:03:15So, listen, I've got the council coming at two,

1:03:15 > 1:03:18so I want to put a little something together for them.

1:03:18 > 1:03:20Show them what this scheme is all about

1:03:20 > 1:03:22and what we're hoping to achieve. That kind of thing.

1:03:22 > 1:03:24I thought Alice was meant to be helping you?

1:03:24 > 1:03:25Well, she didn't show, did she?

1:03:25 > 1:03:28So, listen, my plan is to try and get some boys in the ring.

1:03:28 > 1:03:30Then we'll show the progress we're making.

1:03:30 > 1:03:32Ah. Just in the nick of time!

1:03:32 > 1:03:33Line them up, boys. Yeah.

1:03:33 > 1:03:36- What're you doing with that? - What's it look like, Sherlock?

1:03:36 > 1:03:38Tanya's gone and chucked me out.

1:03:38 > 1:03:40If that ain't an excuse for a session, I don't know what is.

1:03:40 > 1:03:43Guys, I've got the Gazette coming in a couple of hours.

1:03:43 > 1:03:44I need you guys sober.

1:03:44 > 1:03:46Ray. This is your scheme, innit?

1:03:46 > 1:03:49I'm just in it for the free publicity.

1:03:49 > 1:03:50- Where are you going?- Huh?

1:03:50 > 1:03:53Oh, um... The steel erector's gone and wet the bed.

1:03:53 > 1:03:55- So, I've got to change the sheets. - What about the launch?

1:03:55 > 1:03:58You can knock them out. You know...

1:04:00 > 1:04:01Yeah?

1:04:10 > 1:04:12I can't find it anywhere.

1:04:13 > 1:04:16I'd cancel those cards if I were you.

1:04:16 > 1:04:18Otherwise, you're going to be paying for a family of four

1:04:18 > 1:04:21to come over from Kazakhstan.

1:04:21 > 1:04:24It'll turn up. So, how are we getting on?

1:04:27 > 1:04:28We're going to need more rum.

1:04:28 > 1:04:30I'm sure Patrick can help us out with that.

1:04:30 > 1:04:34- What's that supposed to mean? - Nothing. It's just...

1:04:34 > 1:04:35things seem to be hotting up between you two.

1:04:35 > 1:04:37That's what Denise said.

1:04:37 > 1:04:39- We're just friends.- Yeah.

1:04:45 > 1:04:48You're in a funny mood today. What's up?

1:04:50 > 1:04:54450 grams of self-raising. Yeah? Does that seem right to you?

1:04:54 > 1:04:59It reminds me of the time you and Rainie broke my mother's vase.

1:04:59 > 1:05:03You set up a pretend salon in the back garden to distract me.

1:05:03 > 1:05:05Poor Rainie was upstairs trying to glue it together.

1:05:05 > 1:05:07I don't remember.

1:05:07 > 1:05:10The problem was, Rainie could always get away with it.

1:05:10 > 1:05:13That girl could lie her way out of anything. But you...

1:05:14 > 1:05:16It's written all over your face.

1:05:18 > 1:05:20I'm sorry.

1:05:20 > 1:05:22What have you got to be sorry about?

1:05:24 > 1:05:28I didn't realise how hard it was for you.

1:05:28 > 1:05:30We all had it hard, darling.

1:05:32 > 1:05:34The sleepless nights.

1:05:34 > 1:05:36The boys...and the drugs, the drink...

1:05:36 > 1:05:38It's all part of growing up.

1:05:40 > 1:05:42You were a good mum to us, you know.

1:05:42 > 1:05:44I'm glad to hear it.

1:05:47 > 1:05:48I do love you.

1:05:48 > 1:05:50What about...

1:05:51 > 1:05:55..we make a start on soaking the fruit in the booze, eh?

1:05:55 > 1:05:56Yeah, let's do that. Yeah.

1:06:00 > 1:06:02What's up with Pops?

1:06:02 > 1:06:04It's her sister. Tansy.

1:06:04 > 1:06:05Oh, my God. Has something happened?

1:06:05 > 1:06:09No, you drama queen. She's just coming to visit. That's all.

1:06:09 > 1:06:10And that's a problem why, exactly?

1:06:10 > 1:06:13Because she thinks I'm a successful shellac nail technician

1:06:13 > 1:06:16with my own salon, a penthouse apartment and two designer dogs.

1:06:16 > 1:06:18Why did you say all that?

1:06:18 > 1:06:20Because she's got everything.

1:06:20 > 1:06:23A fiance, an ISA, not so much as a split end.

1:06:23 > 1:06:27And do you know what makes it worse? She's three years younger than me.

1:06:27 > 1:06:29Pops. So you told a little porkie?

1:06:29 > 1:06:31She ain't going to find out, is she?

1:06:31 > 1:06:33No. You don't know Tansy. She's like a bloodhound.

1:06:33 > 1:06:36She's worked out the murderer before Miss Marple's out of her armchair.

1:06:36 > 1:06:38THEY LAUGH

1:06:39 > 1:06:41Well, that's unless...

1:06:41 > 1:06:42Unless what?

1:06:42 > 1:06:45Well, Tanya's spending the day with her mum

1:06:45 > 1:06:47and I'm all alone in the salon.

1:06:47 > 1:06:49I'm talking, like, two hours, tops.

1:06:49 > 1:06:51To do what?

1:06:51 > 1:06:54- Pretend to be my staff? - And why would we want to do that?

1:06:56 > 1:06:58- Plus, I'm here all day. - And I've got nursery this afternoon.

1:06:58 > 1:07:01Yeah, you're right. I shouldn't have asked. I'm sorry.

1:07:01 > 1:07:04- Hey, Pops, listen... - I'll just say there's been a mix-up.

1:07:04 > 1:07:07It's fine. I'm sure she'll understand.

1:07:10 > 1:07:13What is wrong with you? I thought that girl was supposed to your girl?

1:07:13 > 1:07:16Know what I mean? I thought we were the E20 massive and crew, here.

1:07:16 > 1:07:18That girl is mental.

1:07:18 > 1:07:21Listen, Luce. It wasn't that long ago you was in trouble. Right?

1:07:21 > 1:07:23And where was we, eh? Right by your side.

1:07:23 > 1:07:25All right, Tans? Yeah, hiya.

1:07:25 > 1:07:27You'll never guess what.

1:07:27 > 1:07:30I've only gone and got my dates muddled up.

1:07:30 > 1:07:31SHE LAUGHS

1:07:31 > 1:07:33Yeah, I know.

1:07:33 > 1:07:36Um, in Ongar, of all places.

1:07:36 > 1:07:39Yeah, that's right. It's somewhere in Essex, apparently.

1:07:39 > 1:07:42Well, I just met your double, then.

1:07:47 > 1:07:50So you reckon you can keep up with the little street rats?

1:07:50 > 1:07:52Yeah, well, we ain't all past it, Uncle Jack.

1:07:52 > 1:07:54I could show you a trick or two in this ring, boy.

1:07:54 > 1:07:57Oh, yeah, yeah. If it weren't for the bullet in his head.

1:07:57 > 1:07:59Remember. You're in the presence of greatness,

1:07:59 > 1:08:00and don't you forget it.

1:08:00 > 1:08:02- Don't show us up. - This one's for you, Jimmy.

1:08:02 > 1:08:03Good boy!

1:08:03 > 1:08:06You know what, I can see a bit of me in him.

1:08:06 > 1:08:07He's better looking.

1:08:07 > 1:08:10I don't get what Derek's beef is with him.

1:08:10 > 1:08:12He's just got it in for him, ain't he?

1:08:12 > 1:08:14It's his loss, ain't it?

1:08:14 > 1:08:16Go on, son.

1:08:19 > 1:08:20Thought you were meant to be helping me out?

1:08:20 > 1:08:22Cos I'll do anything you say, won't I?

1:08:22 > 1:08:24Cos I'm just some little girl with a stupid crush.

1:08:24 > 1:08:26What are you talking about?

1:08:26 > 1:08:27My dad told me what you said about me.

1:08:27 > 1:08:29How you were laughing at me.

1:08:29 > 1:08:31I'd never do that, Alice.

1:08:31 > 1:08:33So...why did he say you did?

1:08:33 > 1:08:36You'll have to ask him about that.

1:08:39 > 1:08:41I didn't mean to dazzle you.

1:08:41 > 1:08:43It's just this rock's so big, it keeps catching the light.

1:08:43 > 1:08:45Oh, Tansy!

1:08:45 > 1:08:47I didn't want to say anything.

1:08:47 > 1:08:49Poor old Pops.

1:08:49 > 1:08:50Always unlucky in love.

1:08:50 > 1:08:53Me and Mum have been working on mood boards.

1:08:53 > 1:08:56Think Will and Kate, but much classier.

1:08:56 > 1:08:58Sounds lovely.

1:08:58 > 1:08:59Oh, it will be!

1:09:01 > 1:09:03Er, I'll get the drinks then, yeah?

1:09:03 > 1:09:05I should be thanking you.

1:09:05 > 1:09:08The money we'll save not having to pay for a plus one.

1:09:10 > 1:09:13Ah, there you are! I'm sorry I'm late.

1:09:13 > 1:09:16You know what it's like in the Hong Kong offices.

1:09:16 > 1:09:18Excuse me, where are my manners? Arthur Chubb.

1:09:18 > 1:09:20Poppy never said.

1:09:20 > 1:09:22We don't spend as much time together as we'd like.

1:09:22 > 1:09:24One of the pitfalls of seeing somebody in asset management.

1:09:24 > 1:09:26The usual, please, Maureen.

1:09:26 > 1:09:28What's that? A coke and two straws?

1:09:28 > 1:09:30HE LAUGHS

1:09:30 > 1:09:31What is she like, eh?

1:09:31 > 1:09:35No, no, no. A bottle of Sauvignon, please. The Argentinean one.

1:09:35 > 1:09:37Alfie don't pay you to sit on your backside.

1:09:37 > 1:09:41You'll have to forgive her. It's tragic what old age can do.

1:09:43 > 1:09:46- I think Lauren's got a new boyfriend. - That's good.

1:09:46 > 1:09:48Well, she denied it all.

1:09:48 > 1:09:50Of course she did. You're her mother.

1:09:50 > 1:09:52I could see it, you know, in her face.

1:09:52 > 1:09:55Maybe it's a good thing. Keep her on the straight and narrow.

1:09:55 > 1:09:57Mmm. Let's hope so.

1:09:57 > 1:09:58Then again...

1:09:58 > 1:10:01If he's anything like the puddings you and Rainie brought home,

1:10:01 > 1:10:04you're in trouble.

1:10:04 > 1:10:06Do you remember the first time you met Max?

1:10:06 > 1:10:09How could I forget? He sold me a dodgy insurance policy.

1:10:09 > 1:10:11What did you think of him?

1:10:11 > 1:10:14He was a married man with a child. What do you think?

1:10:14 > 1:10:17Still. You grew to love him, didn't you?

1:10:17 > 1:10:19That's one way of putting it.

1:10:21 > 1:10:23Ava's father...

1:10:23 > 1:10:24Long gone.

1:10:26 > 1:10:28That's hot enough now.

1:10:30 > 1:10:31We should do this more often.

1:10:31 > 1:10:33What? Open a bakery?

1:10:35 > 1:10:36Spend time together.

1:10:36 > 1:10:38If that's what you want.

1:10:40 > 1:10:41Is it what you want?

1:10:41 > 1:10:43I suppose the odd afternoon wouldn't hurt.

1:10:43 > 1:10:46KNOCK AT DOOR

1:10:46 > 1:10:48I'll get it.

1:10:48 > 1:10:50It's probably Lauren. Forgotten her key.

1:10:50 > 1:10:52I looked for your purse. It's not upstairs.

1:10:57 > 1:10:58Who is it, Mum?

1:11:00 > 1:11:03- Hiya. All right?- Hiya. You said to pop in anytime, didn't you?- Did I?

1:11:03 > 1:11:06So, how you doing, Mamma C? Or do you prefer plain old Ma?

1:11:06 > 1:11:09Zainab's covering, so thought we'd make an afternoon of it.

1:11:09 > 1:11:12Oh, right. We're baking a cake actually.

1:11:12 > 1:11:15- Well, look no further. B in Home Economics, this one.- Yeah.

1:11:15 > 1:11:16As for me...

1:11:16 > 1:11:20Let's just say that my dumplings are in a league of their own.

1:11:21 > 1:11:22Mmm! Smells good!

1:11:23 > 1:11:25Well, this is nice, isn't it?

1:11:25 > 1:11:27Fancy not inviting your own brother to a party?

1:11:27 > 1:11:30Oi, you walked out, eh? Anyway, it's only a few beers.

1:11:30 > 1:11:32It still hurts, Jack.

1:11:32 > 1:11:33Mind you, I'm getting used to that,

1:11:33 > 1:11:36what with you inviting him to be your best man...

1:11:36 > 1:11:38Here we go. Get out the violins.

1:11:38 > 1:11:40- Go on, Del. Grab a beer. - Yeah, go on.

1:11:43 > 1:11:46- You seen your boy out there? - All right, ain't he? Packs a punch.

1:11:46 > 1:11:49All I know is that he's treading on very thin ice.

1:11:49 > 1:11:51Look what I found lurking out in the street.

1:11:51 > 1:11:54- Hello, Patrick.- Patrick.

1:11:54 > 1:11:57You sorted out your domestic with Tanya yet, have you?

1:11:57 > 1:12:00- Tanya?- I saw them in the street getting in a car yesterday.

1:12:00 > 1:12:04- Right little adventure, looked like you...- On an errand for Cora. It's all sorted out now, OK?

1:12:04 > 1:12:08- I bet you was handy with your fists back in the day. - Don't write me off yet, son.

1:12:08 > 1:12:12I mean, I could teach Derek a thing or two about how to fight like a man.

1:12:12 > 1:12:14I'm surprised you've got any energy left, Patrick.

1:12:14 > 1:12:17All the effort you're putting into pulling my mother-in-law.

1:12:17 > 1:12:19- You copped a feel yet? - Respect, son. All right?

1:12:19 > 1:12:22Whoa, whoa, what's the matter with you?

1:12:22 > 1:12:25Guys, guys, guys, please! Can you not keep it down, man?

1:12:25 > 1:12:26I've got the Gazette coming at any time.

1:12:26 > 1:12:30- You're lucky I'm not inviting you to step outside, you. - Oi. What you talking about?

1:12:30 > 1:12:33The way he's leading on a little girl on like that. My little Alice.

1:12:35 > 1:12:37This is John Edwards from the Walford Council.

1:12:37 > 1:12:40Mr Edwards. It's a pleasure.

1:12:40 > 1:12:41Please, this way.

1:12:44 > 1:12:45Do you know how long I've been sourcing

1:12:45 > 1:12:48for the right colour scheme for my wedding?

1:12:48 > 1:12:50Lilac, lavender and deep plum, if you must know.

1:12:50 > 1:12:53I'm not having you two coming along and stealing my thunder.

1:12:53 > 1:12:57- Oh, we're not getting married. - You better not be.

1:12:57 > 1:12:59Is that the time? That trading floor ain't going to run itself.

1:12:59 > 1:13:02I thought you said you were in asset management.

1:13:02 > 1:13:04- Same thing.- It's not, you know.

1:13:04 > 1:13:07My Gareth's worked in the City for three years.

1:13:07 > 1:13:08Excuse me.

1:13:08 > 1:13:10- Maureen, is it? - Depends on who's asking.

1:13:10 > 1:13:12What does he do?

1:13:13 > 1:13:15He used to fry chicken.

1:13:15 > 1:13:18Now he flogs knock-offs for the landlord.

1:13:23 > 1:13:25I can just see it now.

1:13:25 > 1:13:28All of us sat round a table on Christmas Day.

1:13:28 > 1:13:32Dee carving the turkey, Max pulling a cracker.

1:13:32 > 1:13:34One big happy family.

1:13:34 > 1:13:35Imagine that.

1:13:35 > 1:13:38It's a good thing Jack knocked you back, ain't it, Dee?

1:13:38 > 1:13:41What you...? Jack did not knock me back!

1:13:41 > 1:13:43Yeah, but it'd be a bit, like, incest, though, wouldn't it?

1:13:43 > 1:13:45How's Ray getting on?

1:13:45 > 1:13:48Oh! Let me tell you, that man is a saint.

1:13:48 > 1:13:50What he wouldn't do for those hoodies.

1:13:50 > 1:13:52He's like a black Lady Di.

1:13:52 > 1:13:54We were just saying, weren't we, Kim?

1:13:54 > 1:13:56We should think about starting up the book club again.

1:13:56 > 1:13:59Didn't you and Sharon meet up last Tuesday?

1:13:59 > 1:14:01That's funny.

1:14:01 > 1:14:03No-one mentioned it to me or Zainab.

1:14:03 > 1:14:05Is it any wonder?

1:14:05 > 1:14:08Dee's idea of a book is an old copy of Smash Hits.

1:14:10 > 1:14:12See now, that's beautiful, innit?

1:14:12 > 1:14:16Mother and daughter spending time together.

1:14:16 > 1:14:19I think you might want to slow down on the old vino there, Kim.

1:14:19 > 1:14:21You've got a good one there, Cor.

1:14:21 > 1:14:23Haven't I just?

1:14:23 > 1:14:25Me and Dee, we weren't that close to our mum.

1:14:25 > 1:14:26Speak for yourself!

1:14:27 > 1:14:30You know what? I'd give anything to have what you two have.

1:14:42 > 1:14:44Alice, can I have a word?

1:14:44 > 1:14:46The presentation will be starting in about 20 minutes.

1:14:46 > 1:14:49Please help yourselves to refreshments.

1:14:49 > 1:14:51Alice, please?

1:14:53 > 1:14:56Look, let me explain. I got my wires crossed.

1:14:56 > 1:14:57I'm only trying to protect you.

1:14:57 > 1:15:00- I don't need protecting! - Well, I can see that now.

1:15:00 > 1:15:02Why did you say all that stuff about Ray?

1:15:04 > 1:15:05I don't know...

1:15:05 > 1:15:07I was jealous. All right?

1:15:07 > 1:15:10The way you keep looking up to him all the time.

1:15:10 > 1:15:13- He's my friend. - Let's just hope it stays that way.

1:15:13 > 1:15:16- You're doing it again!- Is he bothering you?- Thank you, Joey.

1:15:16 > 1:15:18Alice?

1:15:19 > 1:15:21Are we all right now? Please?

1:15:21 > 1:15:23Ray needs me.

1:15:24 > 1:15:25Alice?

1:15:27 > 1:15:29Cheer up, Pops.

1:15:29 > 1:15:32There's no shame in admitting you're struggling, is there?

1:15:32 > 1:15:33Two teas, please.

1:15:33 > 1:15:36Some people just dream too big.

1:15:38 > 1:15:41I...I didn't mean to lie to you, Tans...

1:15:41 > 1:15:43Thank God you're here!

1:15:43 > 1:15:45Lucy's gone and mucked up some posh woman's highlights.

1:15:45 > 1:15:47Her hair's coming out in chunks.

1:15:47 > 1:15:49They're insisting on talking to the manager.

1:15:49 > 1:15:51So, I didn't know what to say.

1:15:52 > 1:15:54I'm so sorry about this, Tans...

1:15:54 > 1:15:57I was hoping I could've just left my staff to get on with things,

1:15:57 > 1:15:59but obviously not, so...

1:16:06 > 1:16:09The plan is to get the kids into the sport and off the streets.

1:16:10 > 1:16:12Come on. Get your back into it!

1:16:12 > 1:16:15This ain't Million Dollar Baby, you doughnut.

1:16:15 > 1:16:17He ain't all that, you know.

1:16:17 > 1:16:18His stance is all wrong.

1:16:21 > 1:16:22Go on, son!

1:16:24 > 1:16:25I hate watching him up there.

1:16:25 > 1:16:28- Is he winning or what? - I'm not really sure.

1:16:28 > 1:16:31All right, Lauren? What are you doing here?

1:16:31 > 1:16:34I just like to see what the local cavemen get up to of an afternoon.

1:16:34 > 1:16:37- It's the sport of kings, Lauren. - Yeah, morons, more like.

1:16:39 > 1:16:42All right, time! Nicely done, Joey.

1:16:42 > 1:16:45Joey here's helping us put the boys through their paces.

1:16:45 > 1:16:46As you can see,

1:16:46 > 1:16:49he's a shining example of what this project's all about.

1:16:49 > 1:16:52But obviously, ultimately, it's all about children.

1:16:52 > 1:16:53Trying to get them in...

1:16:57 > 1:17:00You can say all you want, Joey.

1:17:00 > 1:17:03- But she's always going to come running back to me.- Is that right?

1:17:03 > 1:17:05What can I say? She loves her old man.

1:17:05 > 1:17:07And who can blame her, eh?

1:17:07 > 1:17:10Well, that is heart-warming, Derek. It really is.

1:17:10 > 1:17:13You stick the knife in. But some bonds are unbreakable.

1:17:22 > 1:17:24So, everyone pays a sub per session

1:17:24 > 1:17:27which goes towards the running of the club.

1:17:27 > 1:17:30- What's wrong with you, eh, Derek?! - Joey!- Joey!

1:17:31 > 1:17:33- What've you done to him? - I haven't touched him.

1:17:33 > 1:17:35Please, ladies and gents, don't be put off.

1:17:35 > 1:17:38I'm sure Joey just took a little knock, that's all.

1:17:38 > 1:17:40- What's happened? Joey... - How could you do this?

1:17:40 > 1:17:42I didn't touch him. He did it on the locker door. I swear.

1:17:42 > 1:17:44Take him outside, eh? Get some fresh air.

1:17:44 > 1:17:46Joey, tell them what you did.

1:17:46 > 1:17:49Don't even try it, all right? Don't even try it!

1:17:49 > 1:17:51You've gone too far this time, Derek.

1:17:51 > 1:17:53I didn't touch him! I swear, Jack.

1:17:55 > 1:17:57Now THAT'S the sister I should've had.

1:17:57 > 1:17:58I'm sorry?

1:17:58 > 1:18:00I'm not being funny, but the girl oozes class.

1:18:00 > 1:18:02What? Am I some sort of tramp then, am I?

1:18:02 > 1:18:04Oh, why are you so dramatic?

1:18:07 > 1:18:10Oh, will you look at that?!

1:18:10 > 1:18:13Now, THAT is team work.

1:18:14 > 1:18:16Right, so, I'm sorry you couldn't stay any longer.

1:18:16 > 1:18:19Yeah. I should get back to the gym. Show Ray some support.

1:18:19 > 1:18:21You know where we are.

1:18:21 > 1:18:24Cup of sugar, one of my designer tops...

1:18:24 > 1:18:27One of Dee's cardies. Cor. Ra.

1:18:27 > 1:18:29What's ours is yours now, sis.

1:18:29 > 1:18:31Mind how you go.

1:18:35 > 1:18:38- I thought they were never going to leave.- Talk about hard work!

1:18:38 > 1:18:42I mean, when does she breathe, eh? She never shuts up.

1:18:42 > 1:18:45KNOCK AT DOOR WHISPERS: Do you think she heard me?

1:18:46 > 1:18:48Where're you going?

1:18:48 > 1:18:51Shop. She's right about one thing. We do make a good team.

1:18:51 > 1:18:54We deserve a cheeky bottle of wine. I'll leave you to them.

1:18:54 > 1:18:56Come back here!

1:19:06 > 1:19:07Can I help you?

1:19:07 > 1:19:09I'm looking for a Tanya Cross.

1:19:10 > 1:19:12She left this yesterday.

1:19:12 > 1:19:15Oh, thank goodness!

1:19:15 > 1:19:17We've been looking all over the place for this.

1:19:17 > 1:19:20Don't go. She'll be back in a minute.

1:19:20 > 1:19:22She'll want to thank you personally.

1:19:22 > 1:19:25All right. Five minutes won't hurt.

1:19:31 > 1:19:33The kettle's just boiled. Can I tempt you?

1:19:33 > 1:19:36- I never say no to a cuppa. - A woman after my own heart!

1:19:39 > 1:19:42And we're looking to branch out next year, into laser hair removal.

1:19:42 > 1:19:44Aren't we, girls?

1:19:44 > 1:19:49Poppy said she'd sponsor us for college. Didn't you?

1:19:49 > 1:19:50Pops ...

1:19:50 > 1:19:53Yeah. Yeah, you've got to invest in your staff, don't you?

1:19:53 > 1:19:55Give a little back.

1:19:55 > 1:19:58I want to be the girl who sweeps up hair.

1:19:58 > 1:20:00Everything's just perfect for you, isn't it?

1:20:01 > 1:20:03Oh.

1:20:03 > 1:20:04Tansey.

1:20:07 > 1:20:09Babe, what you crying for?

1:20:09 > 1:20:12You're the one with a fiance and a colour scheme.

1:20:12 > 1:20:14We split up three weeks ago.

1:20:14 > 1:20:16He was seeing a girl from Lewisham.

1:20:16 > 1:20:20Lewisham? That's terrible. Why didn't you say anything?

1:20:20 > 1:20:22You've got it made, Pops.

1:20:22 > 1:20:25I really haven't, you know.

1:20:27 > 1:20:28This isn't even my salon.

1:20:28 > 1:20:31I'd worked that one out myself. Who would employ those two?

1:20:31 > 1:20:34There's no defending those roots.

1:20:34 > 1:20:36I'm talking about Arthur.

1:20:36 > 1:20:38It's obvious he likes you.

1:20:38 > 1:20:42Oh, no, he's not my boyfriend. We're just really good mates.

1:20:42 > 1:20:45I'm sorry, so you're telling us he's going to all this trouble

1:20:45 > 1:20:48- cos you're just mates? - And I thought I was the stupid one.

1:20:52 > 1:20:54- Should we call an ambulance? - Stop fussing, will you, yeah?

1:20:54 > 1:20:56You might have concussion!

1:20:56 > 1:20:59Alice, it's going to take more than a punch from Derek to bring me down, all right?

1:20:59 > 1:21:02I still can't believe he did this.

1:21:02 > 1:21:03I can. He's a thug.

1:21:03 > 1:21:05Just go home and pack your bag, yeah?

1:21:05 > 1:21:07I'm going to take you back to Mum's.

1:21:07 > 1:21:09What's the matter? Eh?

1:21:09 > 1:21:13Oh, come on, Alice. Is this not enough for you?

1:21:14 > 1:21:16Just give me five minutes. I'll be straight over.

1:21:22 > 1:21:24- Let me see this.- Not here. Come on.

1:21:36 > 1:21:37What was that for?

1:21:37 > 1:21:40That is the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me.

1:21:52 > 1:21:53Uh...

1:21:53 > 1:21:55I'd better get back to the...

1:21:55 > 1:21:58You know, the responsibilities of running a business...

1:21:58 > 1:22:00Right. Um... So...

1:22:00 > 1:22:02I'll see you around?

1:22:03 > 1:22:04- Mm.- Yeah?

1:22:04 > 1:22:06Yeah? OK.

1:22:08 > 1:22:10Fats...?

1:22:10 > 1:22:12You remembered the mouthwash.

1:22:14 > 1:22:15Yes! Yes.

1:22:15 > 1:22:17Yes, yes.

1:22:18 > 1:22:20I'll see you...around.

1:22:24 > 1:22:26- It really hurts.- Stop moaning!

1:22:26 > 1:22:29It does, it hurts.

1:22:29 > 1:22:32- Ready?- Yeah.- Shall I fix you?- Yeah.

1:22:48 > 1:22:50You're a teacher, you say?

1:22:50 > 1:22:52Yeah, that's right. In Dalston.

1:22:56 > 1:22:59So that's what today's been about.

1:22:59 > 1:23:02Buttering me up to spring this on me.

1:23:02 > 1:23:05Oh, I think I might have said too much.

1:23:05 > 1:23:08Don't worry. It was going to come out in the end.

1:23:08 > 1:23:11DOOR SLAMS Mum?

1:23:11 > 1:23:12We're in here.

1:23:17 > 1:23:20I think you've got some explaining to do.

1:23:23 > 1:23:25I'm sorry.

1:23:25 > 1:23:29You didn't think I had a right to be consulted?

1:23:29 > 1:23:32Eh?

1:23:32 > 1:23:34Moving to Dalston without so much as a family meeting?

1:23:34 > 1:23:37You left your purse at my school yesterday.

1:23:37 > 1:23:41If it hadn't been for this Good Samaritan, I would've known nothing about it.

1:23:41 > 1:23:42I'm sorry, I didn't get your name?

1:23:42 > 1:23:45Ava. Ava Hartman.

1:23:47 > 1:23:49(What did you just say?)

1:23:51 > 1:23:53I'm so sorry...

1:23:56 > 1:23:58What have you done?

1:23:58 > 1:24:01- I'm sorry.- I think I should go.

1:24:01 > 1:24:04I didn't realise she was just going to turn up here like this.

1:24:04 > 1:24:06Are you talking about me?

1:24:06 > 1:24:08- Mum, please.- I have to go.

1:24:08 > 1:24:12No, no, you can't just walk out of here. She's your daughter!

1:24:18 > 1:24:20What is this?

1:24:21 > 1:24:23You weren't supposed to find out like this.

1:24:24 > 1:24:25What have you done?

1:24:26 > 1:24:28What have you done?

1:24:34 > 1:24:37Who are you?

1:24:40 > 1:24:42I'm your sister.

1:24:45 > 1:24:49I can explain everything. Please, just... Just wait here.

1:25:04 > 1:25:06Let's go inside and talk, Mum.

1:25:09 > 1:25:11I'm so sorry, Mum.

1:25:26 > 1:25:28Sorry.

1:25:30 > 1:25:32- You're shaking.- Am I?

1:25:33 > 1:25:36I still can't believe he did this to you.

1:25:36 > 1:25:38He didn't, did he?

1:25:38 > 1:25:41Joey, what are you talking about?

1:25:41 > 1:25:44Look, he manipulates her, Lauren. He messes with her head.

1:25:44 > 1:25:47I wasn't just going to stand there and let him get away with it, was I?

1:25:47 > 1:25:48She's my little sister!

1:25:48 > 1:25:51Hey! Lau... Lau... Lauren!

1:25:51 > 1:25:53Hey!

1:25:54 > 1:25:56Look...

1:25:56 > 1:25:57Promise me this.

1:25:57 > 1:26:00This don't change anything between us, yeah?

1:26:00 > 1:26:03What... What if he hurts you now?

1:26:03 > 1:26:04HE SCOFFS

1:26:04 > 1:26:08That's never going to happen, is it? Not mentally.

1:26:08 > 1:26:09Come on.

1:26:19 > 1:26:20Hey...

1:26:20 > 1:26:21Hey, what's the matter?

1:26:23 > 1:26:26I just hate being here. Hiding, like it's...

1:26:26 > 1:26:27Like it's something to be ashamed of.

1:26:27 > 1:26:30Just give it a couple of weeks, yeah?

1:26:30 > 1:26:33What? What, until we break it to them gently, you mean?

1:26:33 > 1:26:35Really?

1:26:35 > 1:26:36"Dad?"

1:26:36 > 1:26:39"Dad, you know my cousin Joey?"

1:26:39 > 1:26:43"The one you let in our house because he had nowhere else to go?"

1:26:43 > 1:26:46"Yes, well, WE... We are hooking up! We're a thing..."

1:26:46 > 1:26:47All right, so it won't be easy, Lauren.

1:26:47 > 1:26:50No, of course not. It's never going to happen, is it?

1:26:50 > 1:26:53- Why are you being like this? - Because...- Because what?

1:26:53 > 1:26:54Because.

1:26:56 > 1:26:59I just wish that things could just be simple.

1:26:59 > 1:27:01HE SCOFFS

1:27:03 > 1:27:04That'd be boring, Lauren.

1:27:08 > 1:27:10Anyway, you know I love a challenge.

1:27:11 > 1:27:12OK.

1:27:12 > 1:27:14Is that all I am to you, then?

1:27:14 > 1:27:16- A challenge?- Yeah.

1:27:16 > 1:27:17Oh!

1:27:17 > 1:27:19Amongst other things.

1:27:32 > 1:27:35- Hey...- Whoa.

1:27:35 > 1:27:38- What's the matter?- OK, someone just walked over my grave.

1:27:42 > 1:27:44Can we...? Can we just get out of here?

1:27:51 > 1:27:54- Cora? Cora? - KNOCK AT DOOR

1:27:54 > 1:27:56Co...?

1:27:58 > 1:28:00Cora, the front door was wide open.

1:28:02 > 1:28:04I need a drink.

1:28:11 > 1:28:12Let me do that.

1:28:20 > 1:28:21Has something happened?

1:28:24 > 1:28:26I'll... I'll get Tanya, shall I?

1:28:26 > 1:28:30I DON'T want her anywhere near me!

1:28:32 > 1:28:3448 years.

1:28:35 > 1:28:39She had no right to stir it all up again.

1:28:39 > 1:28:42That was my life. My choice. And she took it from me.

1:28:42 > 1:28:45What are you talking about? Huh?

1:28:45 > 1:28:46Ava.

1:28:48 > 1:28:50I warned her, didn't I?

1:28:50 > 1:28:52I told her...

1:28:52 > 1:28:58not to get involved with things that were no concern of hers.

1:28:59 > 1:29:02What I want to know is how she found out.

1:29:02 > 1:29:04She's been going through my things again, hasn't she?

1:29:04 > 1:29:07- Cora...- She was like it as a girl.

1:29:07 > 1:29:09Once she got the bit between her teeth she wouldn't let...

1:29:09 > 1:29:12Cora! Cora! I told her.

1:29:17 > 1:29:18You did what?

1:29:26 > 1:29:27Do you take sugar?

1:29:32 > 1:29:34I'll just bring the bowl in.

1:29:43 > 1:29:45Dad, have you seen Whit?

1:29:45 > 1:29:48Nah, not since this morning. Is Joey all right?

1:29:48 > 1:29:50Uh... Yeah, he'll live.

1:29:55 > 1:29:57Well, well, well. This is nice, innit?

1:29:57 > 1:30:01A bit of quality time with your old Uncle Derek.

1:30:01 > 1:30:03Can you just get out my way, please?

1:30:04 > 1:30:07You know, I remember the first time I came to see you.

1:30:07 > 1:30:10You must have been what, three or four years old?

1:30:10 > 1:30:13- Scrappy little thing. - Yep, sounds about right.

1:30:13 > 1:30:15Sitting there with all the grown-ups.

1:30:15 > 1:30:16Chirping in, making them all laugh.

1:30:16 > 1:30:18I thought, "That girl's going to go far."

1:30:18 > 1:30:20Funny how things turn out, innit?

1:30:21 > 1:30:24There you was, so full of promise...

1:30:24 > 1:30:26and how did you end up?

1:30:26 > 1:30:28Propping up some bar in a backstreet boozer.

1:30:28 > 1:30:30I don't have to listen to this.

1:30:34 > 1:30:36You know, binge drinking's one thing.

1:30:36 > 1:30:38Dropping out of school? Well, we all did that.

1:30:40 > 1:30:43But shacking up with your own cousin?

1:30:43 > 1:30:45Well, that's low even by your standards, Lauren.

1:30:47 > 1:30:48Are you going to deny it?

1:30:52 > 1:30:53Well, what do you want?

1:30:53 > 1:30:56Tell Joey I want to see him in the car lot in an hour.

1:30:56 > 1:30:58Why?

1:30:58 > 1:31:00That's between me and him.

1:31:02 > 1:31:04And what if he don't show?

1:31:04 > 1:31:06HE CHUCKLES MENACINGLY

1:31:06 > 1:31:08You don't want to know that.

1:31:12 > 1:31:13This isn't your fault.

1:31:13 > 1:31:16Look, it was only a matter of time before he snapped.

1:31:16 > 1:31:18You know that as well as I do.

1:31:18 > 1:31:20If you just talk to him, maybe...

1:31:20 > 1:31:23There you go again. You're making up excuses for him.

1:31:23 > 1:31:27- He needs help!- No, he wants locking up, Alice, all right?

1:31:27 > 1:31:29Do you really think this is bad?

1:31:29 > 1:31:31You should've seen my mum's face sometimes.

1:31:31 > 1:31:33- I don't want to hear about that... - I was seven years old

1:31:33 > 1:31:36- and I was mopping up blood off the floor.- Stop it.

1:31:36 > 1:31:40He once hit her so hard that he left his ring printed in her face.

1:31:40 > 1:31:43- You can still see it now if you look hard enough...- Just stop it!

1:31:43 > 1:31:44What is your problem, eh, Alice?

1:31:44 > 1:31:46I mean, do you think I deserved this? Is that it?

1:31:46 > 1:31:48You want to get out of this house right now,

1:31:48 > 1:31:51before he does exactly the same to you!

1:31:53 > 1:31:56I just wanted my dad, Joey.

1:31:59 > 1:32:01I know.

1:32:01 > 1:32:03I know you did, Alice.

1:32:03 > 1:32:05Look, I'm sorry, all right? I'm sorry for shouting.

1:32:07 > 1:32:09What are you going to do, eh?

1:32:09 > 1:32:12SHE SNIFFS

1:32:12 > 1:32:15I dunno. Go back to Mum's?

1:32:15 > 1:32:17Tonight, yeah?

1:32:19 > 1:32:23Listen, Alice. How about I stay here? We'll tell him together, yeah?

1:32:23 > 1:32:25It's just going to make things worse.

1:32:25 > 1:32:27- DOOR OPENS - Hey!

1:32:27 > 1:32:30Please, Joey! I have to do this by myself. Just go!

1:32:30 > 1:32:31Alice? Alice?

1:32:37 > 1:32:41- Look, what happened, I... - I don't want to hear about it.

1:32:41 > 1:32:43- I never touched him!- I don't!

1:32:43 > 1:32:47I swear on my father's life, I never touched him.

1:32:51 > 1:32:53You say she's over there right now?

1:32:54 > 1:32:57Well, stop staring and go and talk to her now, man!

1:32:57 > 1:33:00Don't ever tell me what to do. Do you understand?

1:33:03 > 1:33:06- You never said he was black. - You never asked.

1:33:07 > 1:33:09Did he know?

1:33:09 > 1:33:12He cleared off before I had a chance to tell him.

1:33:13 > 1:33:17I kept it hidden for nearly four months.

1:33:17 > 1:33:19I was convinced he'd come back to me...

1:33:19 > 1:33:21whisk me off to the Caribbean.

1:33:25 > 1:33:28I can still remember my father's face when I told him.

1:33:31 > 1:33:33He never looked at me the same again.

1:33:35 > 1:33:37So what happened then?

1:33:40 > 1:33:43I was shipped off to a mother-and-baby home in Faversham.

1:33:45 > 1:33:50They waited until it was dark before they took me to the station.

1:33:50 > 1:33:52Couldn't risk offending the neighbours.

1:33:55 > 1:33:58Turns out they'd sorted everything.

1:33:58 > 1:34:00Poor childless couple.

1:34:00 > 1:34:03Bit of money tucked away.

1:34:04 > 1:34:08After 14 hours, I was back in my room, packing to go home again.

1:34:10 > 1:34:11Did you ever see her again?

1:34:11 > 1:34:13There was no need.

1:34:14 > 1:34:15She wasn't my...

1:34:17 > 1:34:18problem anymore.

1:34:19 > 1:34:23But you must have kept a photo or something to remember her by?

1:34:24 > 1:34:26Just a...silly string of beads.

1:34:27 > 1:34:29Got lost years ago.

1:34:32 > 1:34:33Cora...

1:34:34 > 1:34:37Why don't you go over and talk to her?

1:34:37 > 1:34:40There's nothing to say.

1:34:40 > 1:34:43She needs an explanation, if nothing else.

1:34:43 > 1:34:45I was happy muddling along,

1:34:45 > 1:34:48getting ready for Tanya's wedding.

1:34:48 > 1:34:50And she came along and spoilt everything.

1:34:50 > 1:34:53- Oh, come on, you don't mean that. - Don't I?

1:34:53 > 1:34:55My baby's dead.

1:34:55 > 1:34:57That woman over there...

1:34:57 > 1:34:59she's nothing to me.

1:35:00 > 1:35:05You know what I would give to see my Paul? Just five minutes?

1:35:05 > 1:35:10And all you can do is sit down here and talk about how YOU feel.

1:35:10 > 1:35:13What about that poor girl over there, eh?

1:35:26 > 1:35:29I didn't mean to do this.

1:35:29 > 1:35:30Then why did you?

1:35:33 > 1:35:35Because I had to see you.

1:35:36 > 1:35:40- And your mother? - She didn't know anything about it.

1:35:43 > 1:35:45I tried to put it to the back of my mind, but...

1:35:45 > 1:35:48I couldn't.

1:35:48 > 1:35:51I just wanted to find out who my sister was.

1:35:53 > 1:35:55It feels strange, hearing that.

1:35:57 > 1:35:59Doesn't quite cover it.

1:35:59 > 1:36:01Did you know anything?

1:36:03 > 1:36:06Just a name on a birth certificate.

1:36:06 > 1:36:07That's all.

1:36:09 > 1:36:12So, that story about your son coming to my school?

1:36:12 > 1:36:14Yeah, it was just an excuse to see you.

1:36:14 > 1:36:16You didn't say anything.

1:36:20 > 1:36:22I couldn't.

1:36:22 > 1:36:26- Was I a disappointment, is that it? - No. No, of course you weren't.

1:36:26 > 1:36:28- DOOR SLAMS - Mum?

1:36:28 > 1:36:30I'm in here, Lauren.

1:36:31 > 1:36:33This is Ava.

1:36:35 > 1:36:37Mum, can I...? I really need to talk to you.

1:36:37 > 1:36:39I'm going.

1:36:39 > 1:36:41No, no, please don't. Just...

1:36:43 > 1:36:45It's nothing that can't wait, is it, Lauren?

1:36:53 > 1:36:55That's my eldest.

1:36:55 > 1:36:58I've got two girls and... And my boy, there, Oscar.

1:37:01 > 1:37:03There is another sister as well.

1:37:03 > 1:37:04Rainie.

1:37:06 > 1:37:08She's...

1:37:08 > 1:37:10She's got her problems, but I know she'd love to meet you...

1:37:10 > 1:37:12Just answer me one question.

1:37:12 > 1:37:15If I hadn't found your purse, would you have come back?

1:37:39 > 1:37:41'Hi, it's Joey. Please leave a message.'

1:37:42 > 1:37:44Hello? Hello, Joey, it's me.

1:37:44 > 1:37:47Can you call me back as soon as you get this? It's really important.

1:37:51 > 1:37:52Girls, have any of you two seen Joey?

1:37:52 > 1:37:55Erm...no, not today.

1:37:55 > 1:37:57Aren't you going to stop and have a drink?

1:37:57 > 1:37:59It's beauticians' day out.

1:37:59 > 1:38:03Yeah, we're helping Poppy out. Unlike some people I could mention.

1:38:03 > 1:38:05Yeah, well, I've been busy, ain't I?

1:38:08 > 1:38:10Are you all right?

1:38:10 > 1:38:13Yeah. Yeah, I just really, really need to find Joey.

1:38:13 > 1:38:17Well, with any luck, he's taken a long walk off a short pier.

1:38:17 > 1:38:19- Lucy...- What? He tried to split the three of us up.

1:38:19 > 1:38:20Or does that not matter to you?

1:38:20 > 1:38:23Yeah. Yeah, of course it does.

1:38:23 > 1:38:24Tyler told us what happened.

1:38:24 > 1:38:26Derek punched him. I can't believe it.

1:38:26 > 1:38:29I don't blame him. He had it coming for months.

1:38:29 > 1:38:31SHE GIGGLES

1:38:31 > 1:38:32No wonder he dumped you.

1:38:33 > 1:38:35What?!

1:38:35 > 1:38:39Yeah, yeah, it must be really, really hard to try and actually like you.

1:38:39 > 1:38:41You little cow!

1:38:41 > 1:38:42Ow! Get off me, Lucy!

1:38:42 > 1:38:45Lucy, stop! Lucy!

1:38:45 > 1:38:48Oi, get off her! Get off her! What the hell's going on, eh?

1:38:48 > 1:38:52- She started it.- Well, I'm finishing it, all right? A truce, yeah?

1:38:52 > 1:38:53Depends.

1:38:53 > 1:38:55On what?

1:38:55 > 1:38:57It's us or him.

1:38:57 > 1:38:59Are you serious?

1:38:59 > 1:39:01Lucy, you can't make her choose. He's family.

1:39:01 > 1:39:03Oh, come on, Lauren. We're meant to be your best mates.

1:39:03 > 1:39:05So which is it?

1:39:10 > 1:39:12I choose Joey.

1:39:23 > 1:39:26I just got your message. What... What's so important?

1:39:26 > 1:39:28- It's your Dad.- What's he done now?

1:39:28 > 1:39:30He knows.

1:39:30 > 1:39:32He knows about us.

1:39:32 > 1:39:35No. No, Lauren, he'll be bluffing.

1:39:35 > 1:39:37- Not this time.- What did he say?

1:39:37 > 1:39:39He wants you to meet him in the car lot in 40 minutes.

1:39:39 > 1:39:41Right, well, he can whistle, can't he?

1:39:41 > 1:39:43What if he tells my dad?

1:39:43 > 1:39:46We'll just have to front it out, all right?

1:39:46 > 1:39:48No, you don't understand. He's going to kill you!

1:39:48 > 1:39:50I can take care of myself, Lauren, all right?

1:39:50 > 1:39:52Well, what about me?

1:39:52 > 1:39:54Do you think he's going to just let you keep seeing me?

1:39:54 > 1:39:57No! It's all going to kick off, Joey.

1:39:57 > 1:39:59You're going to have to go. You're going to have to go.

1:39:59 > 1:40:01Hang on. I'm not leaving you, all right?

1:40:01 > 1:40:03Just go to your mum's or something, can't you? Just leave.

1:40:03 > 1:40:05No, I can't.

1:40:05 > 1:40:09We don't really have much choice, do we, Joey? So...

1:40:09 > 1:40:10I mean, this.

1:40:10 > 1:40:14Us. It's got to stop.

1:40:15 > 1:40:18Right. So, that's what you want, is it?

1:40:20 > 1:40:21No.

1:40:23 > 1:40:24No, of course it's not!

1:40:27 > 1:40:28SHE SNIFFS

1:40:30 > 1:40:31But we can't be together. Not here.

1:40:33 > 1:40:36Right, then. We'll have to leave.

1:40:38 > 1:40:40- We can't.- Why not?

1:40:41 > 1:40:43Because this is my home!

1:40:43 > 1:40:45You're 18 now, Lauren. You can do whatever you want.

1:40:45 > 1:40:47What about my family? My friends?

1:40:47 > 1:40:49My mum and dad are meant to be getting married

1:40:49 > 1:40:51- in a couple of months. - What would you rather do?

1:40:51 > 1:40:54Just stick around here till they screw things up again?

1:40:54 > 1:40:57Just give me half an hour, yeah?

1:40:57 > 1:40:59I'll meet you out in the gardens.

1:41:03 > 1:41:05I'm scared.

1:41:05 > 1:41:07Joey, I'm really scared.

1:41:08 > 1:41:11You've got nothing to be scared of, Lauren, all right?

1:41:15 > 1:41:17Cos I'm going to look after you.

1:41:20 > 1:41:22So, are you married?

1:41:23 > 1:41:25A few near-misses.

1:41:26 > 1:41:30My husband, Max, he's, um...

1:41:30 > 1:41:33Well, I say husband, we're actually divorced at the moment.

1:41:33 > 1:41:35We're about to get married for a second time.

1:41:35 > 1:41:37It's not as complicated as it sounds, actually.

1:41:37 > 1:41:39DOOR OPENS That might be Lauren.

1:41:39 > 1:41:43I should just go and see what she wanted to talk about.

1:41:45 > 1:41:47Could you leave us?

1:41:52 > 1:41:54I'm not going to tell you again.

1:42:10 > 1:42:12This must have come as quite a shock to you.

1:42:12 > 1:42:15You could say that.

1:42:15 > 1:42:17Well, I'm about as prepared as you are.

1:42:18 > 1:42:20I don't know about you,

1:42:20 > 1:42:22but I could murder a Scotch.

1:42:29 > 1:42:31Mum?

1:42:31 > 1:42:33Can I talk to you now?

1:42:33 > 1:42:36Do you know what I would love?

1:42:36 > 1:42:37Just for once?

1:42:37 > 1:42:40Someone to ask me if I was all right, for a change.

1:42:45 > 1:42:48I mean, you think life's complicated now, Lauren.

1:42:48 > 1:42:51I hate to break it to you, it doesn't get any easier.

1:42:58 > 1:43:01You must have a fair few holidays as a teacher.

1:43:01 > 1:43:04I'm in between jobs at the moment.

1:43:04 > 1:43:08I used to run the charity shop on Turpin Road.

1:43:10 > 1:43:11Dalston, eh?

1:43:11 > 1:43:14I knocked about there when I was a kid.

1:43:16 > 1:43:19I remember this one time,

1:43:19 > 1:43:21it must have been the summer of 1958...

1:43:21 > 1:43:22Why did you do it?

1:43:24 > 1:43:26Why did you give me up?

1:43:27 > 1:43:30Because I wanted to give you the best life I could.

1:43:32 > 1:43:34And my father?

1:43:35 > 1:43:37He knew nothing about you.

1:43:41 > 1:43:43Come on.

1:43:44 > 1:43:47There must be 101 questions you'd like to ask.

1:43:48 > 1:43:50I can't do this.

1:43:50 > 1:43:53You were born at 3:26 in the afternoon.

1:43:53 > 1:43:55Five pounds, four ounces.

1:43:55 > 1:43:58A bit underweight, but nothing to worry about.

1:43:59 > 1:44:01Sandie Shaw was number one.

1:44:02 > 1:44:04Always Something There To Remind Me.

1:44:04 > 1:44:07They played it on the wireless all the time.

1:44:10 > 1:44:12How long did you stay with me?

1:44:14 > 1:44:15An hour, maybe.

1:44:18 > 1:44:20And then you just walked away?

1:44:25 > 1:44:26And then what?

1:44:28 > 1:44:30Then I got on with my life.

1:44:32 > 1:44:34What else could I do?

1:44:37 > 1:44:40Didn't you ever want me?

1:44:40 > 1:44:41It was different back then.

1:44:41 > 1:44:43That's not what I asked you.

1:44:45 > 1:44:47Don't know about you...

1:44:48 > 1:44:50but I could do with a top-up.
