0:00:24 > 0:00:27Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!

0:00:27 > 0:00:31Ho! Merry Christmas, everybody!

0:00:31 > 0:00:33Merry Christmas, Walford!

0:00:33 > 0:00:36Tonight at six o'clock in the Queen Vic,

0:00:36 > 0:00:42we are celebrating Walford's finest son, Ian Albert Beale!

0:00:42 > 0:00:44He's going to be marrying the beautiful Mandy.

0:00:44 > 0:00:49I've still got to get presents for, you know, Morgan, Tiff, Whitney, Carol.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52I ain't exactly been the best dad recently, have I?

0:00:52 > 0:00:53Or ever, I would argue.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56- Shut up, Janine.- Pat, after everything I've done for you.

0:00:56 > 0:01:00- What, are you going to hold this over her for ever?- I... I want everyone to be happy.

0:01:00 > 0:01:05Well, tough. You're the bank now, ain't ya? And you know how people feel about banks.

0:01:06 > 0:01:08Pat, you all right? Pat?

0:01:08 > 0:01:11Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

0:01:11 > 0:01:14See, all that bitterness cannot be good for your health.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20Hey, look who it is, everybody! Our very own...Ian Beale!

0:01:20 > 0:01:23Nice day for a wedding, ain't it, Alfie?

0:01:23 > 0:01:27- No, I'm Santa. Santa.- Ha!

0:01:27 > 0:01:29You coming along tonight, Ricky? 6pm?

0:01:29 > 0:01:32It's a wedding that doesn't end up in prison - which for you is a novelty.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34Oh, and you.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39- Is she still marrying him? - Looks like it, yeah.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43What?

0:01:43 > 0:01:47Listen, Pat, I've done a terrible thing, you know.

0:01:51 > 0:01:55Kamil, baba. Please, Mummy's very tired, OK?

0:01:56 > 0:01:59When your father knows what's happening,

0:01:59 > 0:02:01he'll be there for us, all right? Don't worry.

0:02:03 > 0:02:04Sandwich?

0:02:04 > 0:02:06No, thank you.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08You should. You know what plane food's like.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13- I'm sorry?- I've managed to book us on a flight today.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15- Today?- Why wait?

0:02:15 > 0:02:19Because...that's what we'd decided. You know, there's...

0:02:19 > 0:02:22We can't just leave like that - there's so much to do. BANGING CONTINUES

0:02:22 > 0:02:24Can you...

0:02:24 > 0:02:30Everything's done at the surgery, you're done at the Minute Mart. Afia and Tamwar will take care of admin.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33You just need to pack your bag.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Eat your sandwich.

0:02:41 > 0:02:47Yes, it's about my application for a Prohibited Steps Order... DOOR BELL RINGS

0:02:47 > 0:02:50No, I left a message but he didn't call back.

0:02:50 > 0:02:51OK, I'll wait. Yeah.

0:02:55 > 0:02:58I know it's Christmas, but dead goose just creeps me out.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01Oh, sorry, you're on the phone.

0:03:01 > 0:03:04- On hold.- They were just hanging there, you know...

0:03:04 > 0:03:06with their stringy little necks.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08Want a bit?

0:03:08 > 0:03:10Are you joking?

0:03:10 > 0:03:12- Bacon. Sorry.- Hm.

0:03:12 > 0:03:18You'd better get used to life without them. When you convert.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24It was after me and Bianca had a fight, and Mandy was just there.

0:03:24 > 0:03:31But that's no excuse. Everything Bianca's done for this family...

0:03:31 > 0:03:32And for me!

0:03:32 > 0:03:36I mean, a bloke like me never gets a girl like Bianca.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39Let alone a second chance with her. And then I go and do this.

0:03:39 > 0:03:44I've got to pick her up in a couple of days, what am I going to tell her?

0:03:44 > 0:03:50Nothing. You're a good boy, Ricky. Stop worrying.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53It'll sort itself out.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55There you go. There's one ring.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58- Lovely.- There's the other one. Alfie, don't lose them.

0:03:58 > 0:04:00"Don't lose them"! It'll be OK.

0:04:00 > 0:04:02- OK, is the fizz in the fridge? - Yes.- OK. Food?

0:04:02 > 0:04:08Yeah, caterers brought all that in this morning. Jean's a bit off form, I don't want to take any chances.

0:04:08 > 0:04:13- Is the cake here yet?- Course the cake's here, and there's a piece with your name on it, young man!

0:04:13 > 0:04:16- So, how's the bride looking? - I don't know. It's bad luck!

0:04:16 > 0:04:18All right, do you want to calm down a little bit?!

0:04:18 > 0:04:22Deep breaths! Come 6pm, you'll walk through that door, she'll be on your arm.

0:04:22 > 0:04:23It'll be beautiful!

0:04:23 > 0:04:27- What are you wearing that for?- I've got a wedding to go to, ain't I?

0:04:27 > 0:04:31Just because we don't like each other, Ian, doesn't mean we're not friends.

0:04:31 > 0:04:35This way your rings won't get pawned cos he's heard a whisper about a horse.

0:04:35 > 0:04:39- It only happened the once! OK, it was twice. But I got lucky. - Lucky for you.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42- What happened to the tie I gave you? - Little accident with a fried egg.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44But no-one got hurt.

0:04:44 > 0:04:48- But we don't match.- What's the difference?- It's a wedding! The groom, best man, usher,

0:04:48 > 0:04:52we're all supposed to be co-ordinated. We match, OK? I'll get you another one.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55- I'll meet you out front. You stick with him.- OK...

0:04:55 > 0:04:59Listen, Kat, you don't have to come if you don't want to, darling.

0:04:59 > 0:05:00He's a mate, ain't he?

0:05:00 > 0:05:02You look beautiful, by the way.

0:05:08 > 0:05:12And I have to hear it from Afia. Via text. What is the rush?

0:05:15 > 0:05:21It's the house. We have to sign the transfer forms for the house in Karachi by a certain date

0:05:21 > 0:05:22or the sale won't go through.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24What? And they only just told you?

0:05:24 > 0:05:27Yes, only now. You know what they're like.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31- When do you go?- Car at three.- Car...

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Oh, and that's it, is it?

0:05:37 > 0:05:41Tamwar, it won't be long before we're all there.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Yeah, I know, yeah, but...

0:05:43 > 0:05:46I just thought we'd all go together.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49Oh, Tamwar.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56Syed's not going to like this.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59By the time he comes back, there won't be much he can do about it.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02Are you serious?

0:06:02 > 0:06:05Trust me. Everything's going to be fine.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24Oh, that's not really your colour, is it, love?

0:06:24 > 0:06:29- How did you get in?- Please.

0:06:29 > 0:06:31Yeah, well, I've got a wedding to go to.

0:06:31 > 0:06:36Is this it, then? What you've always wanted? Nice little house.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39Married to a man you don't love.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41I do love Ian.

0:06:41 > 0:06:44I knew his mother, doll. Even she struggled.

0:06:44 > 0:06:46I do.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50Is that why you're throwing yourself at Ricky?

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Boy can't keep his mouth shut, you know it.

0:06:52 > 0:06:57I never threw myself at anyone, Pat. He was well up for it.

0:06:57 > 0:07:01In fact I've had blokes straight out of prison that were less keen.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03Classy, Mandy.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06- You're lecturing me on class?- No.

0:07:06 > 0:07:11But I was married to a man I didn't love and it weren't much fun. But like you say, who am I to lecture?

0:07:12 > 0:07:15Right, well, off you go, then.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18Hm... Ta-ra.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21Oh, I nearly forgot.

0:07:22 > 0:07:25You lay another hand on Ricky and, so help me,

0:07:25 > 0:07:29I will flatten you, even if it takes my last breath.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Like I said - not your colour.

0:07:41 > 0:07:44Come on, mate, in you get. Come on, in you get.

0:07:44 > 0:07:48And tuck your shirt in, as well. Right, get your seatbelt on.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50There you go, mate.

0:07:50 > 0:07:54Oh, look at this beauty. This is going to be a good day.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Rings?

0:07:56 > 0:07:572.30 at Newmarket.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01Don't! Don't. No, no, don't listen to her, they're safe and sound, all right?

0:08:01 > 0:08:04Got 'em right here. But more importantly, the wedding mix.

0:08:04 > 0:08:08You know what, this must be the only car on Earth that still has a tape deck.

0:08:08 > 0:08:10# You're the best thing that ever... #

0:08:10 > 0:08:11Oh, c'mon, Alfie!

0:08:11 > 0:08:15Oh, come on, you lovely people, strap yourselves in and get ready for romance. What a tune!

0:08:15 > 0:08:17LAUGHTER

0:08:17 > 0:08:21# You're the best thing that ever happened... #

0:08:30 > 0:08:32Car...

0:09:03 > 0:09:07Oh, look at that, I've run out of my moisturiser.

0:09:07 > 0:09:08I'll just pop out for a few moments.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11You can buy it over there.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13- What? This brand? I don't think so. - At the airport, then.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16For twice as much?!

0:09:16 > 0:09:18I'll get it. You keep packing.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21Yusef, you are an incredible man,

0:09:21 > 0:09:24but a woman's moisturiser is her own business.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30Come on, baba. Let's go.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32I'll look after him.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34He'll just slow you down.

0:09:36 > 0:09:37Thank you.

0:09:40 > 0:09:42Ten minutes.

0:09:42 > 0:09:43At the most.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Zainab.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Yes?

0:09:49 > 0:09:50I love you.

0:09:50 > 0:09:53I love you too.

0:10:32 > 0:10:37The solicitor's sent the application. He's confident we'll get the order, which means

0:10:37 > 0:10:40she can't take Kamil out of the country without permission.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43- Great.- Yeah, but if she wants to ignore the order and take him,

0:10:43 > 0:10:46which she probably can, it's a crime! DOOR BELL RINGS

0:10:46 > 0:10:49But here's the thing - once they're in Pakistan,

0:10:49 > 0:10:53there's nothing the police, the courts or anyone can do.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55It's up to me.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57BELL RINGS AGAIN

0:11:04 > 0:11:09We're divorced, Zainab. That means blessed relief from you nagging me.

0:11:10 > 0:11:12I'm not in the mood, Zainab.

0:11:14 > 0:11:15­ Who is it?

0:11:15 > 0:11:17No-one.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49Ten minutes.

0:11:58 > 0:12:00Everything OK?

0:12:00 > 0:12:01Fine.

0:12:03 > 0:12:07So... Rogan josh?

0:12:12 > 0:12:14The butcher had goose?

0:12:14 > 0:12:16Geese, multiple.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19The butcher next to the library, right?

0:12:19 > 0:12:21Yeah. Not the halal butcher, then.

0:12:25 > 0:12:26- I am so sorry.- It's OK.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28- I didn't even think.- It's OK.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30It's not OK, Masood!

0:12:30 > 0:12:33I'm trying really hard here and you're giving me nothing.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36I mean, making me feel guilty about eating a bacon sarnie,

0:12:36 > 0:12:41which is about a basic a human right as there is. Meanwhile, I'm getting drunk and making a fool of myself.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43SHE SIGHS

0:12:43 > 0:12:47I just wonder if this whole thing's just...

0:12:47 > 0:12:49too hard.

0:12:49 > 0:12:51Come here.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57It's not too hard. Look at me.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01It's not too hard.

0:13:01 > 0:13:04- Promise?- I promise.

0:13:07 > 0:13:10- I don't want to convert. - You don't have to convert.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12- Really? - Not unless you want to.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15- Do you want me to? - Well, only if you want to.

0:13:15 > 0:13:19- You don't require it?- No.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22- So I don't have to? - I'm surprised you even offered!

0:13:22 > 0:13:26- I got a bit carried away, didn't I? - Yeah.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30I'm sorry about the lamb.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32That's all right.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37Look, give me 20 minutes to get some veg

0:13:37 > 0:13:41and I will break a 100-year family tradition

0:13:41 > 0:13:45by teaching Great-Great-Auntie Shabnam's aloo bhajia recipe to a Muggle.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48Is that what you call us?

0:13:48 > 0:13:50You'll never know.

0:13:59 > 0:14:04I'll get out of the way, let you get your pictures taken. Congratulations, by the way.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07There's no hurry, they're running a bit behind in there.

0:14:07 > 0:14:08Yeah, how much?

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Well, I wouldn't want to push it.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12Well she's not that late, is she?

0:14:12 > 0:14:14- No.- She's, um, building the excitement.

0:14:14 > 0:14:17Yes, exactly. Don't forget, six o'clock, OK?

0:14:17 > 0:14:20- Yeah, yeah.- Got the rings? Yes, I've got the rings. They're safe and sound.

0:14:20 > 0:14:25- Ties look brilliant, Ian. - Yeah, they do, don't they?

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Brilliant.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57Ah, there we are.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16I was talking to the estate agent in Karachi -

0:15:16 > 0:15:20you know they're putting kids' play equipment in the park up the road?

0:15:20 > 0:15:22Really? How wonderful.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24Mum, I still don't know what the rush is.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27It's only a couple of weeks.

0:15:28 > 0:15:31We'll call when we've landed.

0:15:36 > 0:15:37Have a nice flight.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40Thank you for all your help, Tamwar.

0:15:48 > 0:15:53- Jokes are not your thing, are they? - Oh, come on, that's funny! - Yeah. Well, if you say so.

0:16:12 > 0:16:13Finally.

0:16:21 > 0:16:27Hi, it's me again. I'm guessing you're stuck in a tunnel or something.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30Look, give us a ring if you're lost, yeah?

0:16:30 > 0:16:34- Is she coming?- Yeah, course she is.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36Whoa, hold on, mate!

0:16:36 > 0:16:39Hold on, you can't close up yet. I haven't been... And it's not even...

0:16:41 > 0:16:44I'll tell you what, just give us five more minutes.

0:16:44 > 0:16:46- She's, um, stuck in the tunnel. - Sorry.

0:16:46 > 0:16:50- Oh, come on, five minutes won't hurt.- Yeah. Look, I'll pay extra.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52Here you go. Hang on. How much is that? That's...

0:16:52 > 0:16:56- Look, come on, Alfie, we'll help. - Yeah, but I don't think I've got much on me.

0:16:56 > 0:17:00Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. How about...£2.60?

0:17:02 > 0:17:05- It's all I've got.- Give me the rings! Give me the rings!

0:17:05 > 0:17:07- Oh, Ian, you don't have to do this. - Thanks.

0:17:07 > 0:17:10Hang on, mate. Go on, look, please... Take these.

0:17:10 > 0:17:14OK, look, you'll easily, easily get a hundred quid for them.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16Come on, please. I just want five more minutes.

0:17:16 > 0:17:18I'm going to ignore the attempted bribe, sir.

0:17:19 > 0:17:24- Call tomorrow and we'll get you a new appointment.- Look, don't go! I just want to get married.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28I just want to get married.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35Come on, buddy. Let's go home, eh? Come on.

0:20:15 > 0:20:16Did you even put it on?

0:20:20 > 0:20:22Did you ever intend to turn up?

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Look, Mandy, when you agreed to marry me, did you actually think that, you know -

0:20:28 > 0:20:31you'd actually HAVE to marry me?

0:20:31 > 0:20:34- Of course I did. - Then why didn't you?!

0:20:34 > 0:20:37Why did you just leave me standing there?

0:20:37 > 0:20:44It was me, Bobby, Alfie. We were stood there in our stupid matching ties.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47I even begged the guy to give us some more time. I actually begged him!

0:20:47 > 0:20:54D'you know what, I got the rings out to try and get us some more time.

0:20:55 > 0:21:01- Well, I'm surprised you even noticed I was missing. - What? So it's my fault?

0:21:01 > 0:21:07It was meant to be special, Ian. You know - flowers, presents, a party.

0:21:07 > 0:21:09It was meant to be my wedding!

0:21:09 > 0:21:12- We're having a party. - No. Not a proper one!

0:21:12 > 0:21:15Mandy, all I wanted, right, all I wanted in this life

0:21:15 > 0:21:20was to walk into the Vic at six o'clock with you wearing that dress. As my wife.

0:21:20 > 0:21:24And they'd see - they'd see the most beautiful girl in the world, OK?

0:21:24 > 0:21:26Ian Beale's wife. And d'you know what, for once,

0:21:26 > 0:21:32they'd have to take me seriously. They'd be saying "D'you know what, maybe we were wrong about Ian Beale."

0:21:33 > 0:21:37- "They" being Jane.- No. Not just her.

0:21:37 > 0:21:40Well, that's why I didn't show up, Ian.

0:21:40 > 0:21:43Because you don't care about me. This is all about Jane.

0:21:43 > 0:21:50- Of course it's about Jane! Why would you even think it wasn't? - You don't love me, then?

0:21:50 > 0:21:53Oh, Mandy, of course I love you.

0:21:53 > 0:21:57Yeah, but what do you want? Do you want some teenage perfect romance,

0:21:57 > 0:22:02where we're each other's world and we never think about another person again, is that it?

0:22:02 > 0:22:05You've been around. Of course it's about Jane.

0:22:05 > 0:22:11And Cindy, and Mel, and Laura. And just cos you're here, they're not going to disappear, are they?

0:22:11 > 0:22:15It doesn't mean I don't love you. And it doesn't mean I don't want to marry you.

0:22:15 > 0:22:19Oh, come on, Mandy, we can be happy. We're still together.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21I mean look, we've still got the dress.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28No.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33I tell you what, we don't have to do all the formal stuff.

0:22:33 > 0:22:38We can do that at a later date. But, I mean, go on, just... just put it on, we'll go over there,

0:22:38 > 0:22:39we'll have a good laugh.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48No. I'm sorry.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52Listen...

0:22:53 > 0:22:58..for what it's worth...

0:22:58 > 0:22:59I enjoyed what we had.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03I don't mind that we've not worked out

0:23:03 > 0:23:06and we might not be right for each other.

0:23:06 > 0:23:11D'you know what, maybe everybody WAS right.

0:23:11 > 0:23:16But, d'you know what, they don't know you like I do.

0:23:16 > 0:23:20I really think you're the most special person on earth.

0:23:20 > 0:23:26And for the first time in a long time, you made me happy with who I am.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30So, for that, thank you.

0:23:40 > 0:23:44- Your mother lost her passport. - What? The most organised woman in the world?

0:23:44 > 0:23:48Yes, it is uncharacteristic. I'll phone them in the morning about a new one.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50We'll go as soon as it arrives.

0:23:50 > 0:23:53- I'll run you a bath.- I'm fine.

0:23:53 > 0:23:57- I think it's best. - Tamwar, can you look after Kamil?

0:23:57 > 0:24:01- He'll be all right. - I'm asking you, Tamwar.- Sure.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03Come on.

0:24:11 > 0:24:13It's been a really weird day.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15So, what, she just left him at the altar?

0:24:15 > 0:24:20- Somehow that should make me happy. But no-one deserves something like that.- Who's this?- Ian.- Kat.

0:24:20 > 0:24:25What? They're going to find out anyway. Left at the altar.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28- Why?- Got no idea.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30Well, he deserved it.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33What? Just cos I'm the only one that'll actually say it.

0:24:33 > 0:24:36Oi, he's a decent bloke. And a good dad.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40So wind your neck in or drink somewhere else.

0:24:48 > 0:24:52- You all right, darling? - Is he all right?- Oh, Jane, I honestly don't know, darling.

0:24:52 > 0:24:56I know it's come as a bit of a shock.

0:24:56 > 0:25:00Talk of the devil, here he is.

0:25:00 > 0:25:03You all right, mate? You want a bottle?

0:25:03 > 0:25:05Yeah, please, mate. And a lemonade for Bobby.

0:25:05 > 0:25:08- Sit down, I'll bring 'em over, all right?- How you feeling?

0:25:08 > 0:25:11- Yeah, I'm OK. - Put your money away, this is on me.

0:25:11 > 0:25:15Oh, cheers, Alf. Put the food out. There's no point in it going to waste, yeah?

0:25:29 > 0:25:31DOOR OPENS

0:25:31 > 0:25:33Bottle of champagne, please, Alfie.

0:25:40 > 0:25:44Could you send it over to me and my husband?

0:25:56 > 0:25:59I love you.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03I love you, too.

0:26:11 > 0:26:16Ladies and gentlemen, things didn't quite go as we planned, did they?

0:26:16 > 0:26:23So, we're going to do it again. We're going to make it more special. Bigger. And you're all invited!

0:26:25 > 0:26:31Come on, everybody, you heard the man. Let's have a big Queen Vic congratulations to my best mate.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33Ian and Mandy!

0:26:35 > 0:26:38- MUSIC PLAYS - Alfie! - Come on, it's a classic!

0:26:38 > 0:26:42Come on, the food's on its way out. Drinks are on the house.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45And, Merry Christmas, everybody!

0:26:45 > 0:26:49And once again congratulations to the future Mr and Mrs Beale!

0:26:49 > 0:26:51CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:26:54 > 0:26:58- Not too bad, is it? - No. It's not too bad.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02< Oi, get a room, you two.

0:27:29 > 0:27:30Tamwar?

0:27:40 > 0:27:41Kamil.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45Allah!

0:27:45 > 0:27:49DOOR OPENS Tamwar?

0:27:54 > 0:27:58- You look much more relaxed. - Where's Kamil?- He's safe.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00- Where is he?- With a friend.

0:28:08 > 0:28:11I've just sent Tamwar off to pick up some dinner.

0:28:11 > 0:28:13Quiet night's probably best for everyone.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18What have you done with my son?

0:28:18 > 0:28:20Relax, he's fine.

0:28:22 > 0:28:25Everything's going to be fine.

0:28:28 > 0:28:33- What about some of this? - Come and sit down, sweetheart, hurry up.

0:28:33 > 0:28:37- Well?- Look at you! So, what's the occasion, then?

0:28:37 > 0:28:41It's the interview with the benefit fraud office, you lemon.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43It's not the bleedin' Mardi Gras, Jean!

0:28:43 > 0:28:45Oi - she's doing this for you.

0:28:45 > 0:28:50You look lovely, um, but wear a jacket and change that lippy, yeah?

0:28:50 > 0:28:52But it's yours.

0:28:52 > 0:28:55Well, that definitely screams "Lock me up!"

0:28:55 > 0:29:01- No, sorry, no, I'm only joking. - You're going to be fine, all right? Just focus on staying calm.

0:29:01 > 0:29:03Oh, don't worry, Kat.

0:29:03 > 0:29:07I saw two magpies out my window earlier - one for sorrow, two for joy!

0:29:31 > 0:29:33What did I say?

0:29:42 > 0:29:44What did I say?

0:30:10 > 0:30:12So what's the plan, then?

0:30:12 > 0:30:15The boys can rest easy - they're spared my cooking.

0:30:15 > 0:30:19Why don't you let me make something?

0:30:19 > 0:30:24What, after yesterday, you think that's any safer? No, I couldn't ask you to do that.

0:30:24 > 0:30:27I know how precious time with your sons is right now - especially Kamil.

0:30:27 > 0:30:29I just want to help.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31You're a very wonderful woman, Jane.

0:30:31 > 0:30:35- Yeah, I know - and that's why you're taking me out tonight.- I am?

0:30:40 > 0:30:42Yes, you are.

0:30:42 > 0:30:44Oh...that's right, I am.

0:31:04 > 0:31:08Why not treat this time without Kamil as an opportunity -

0:31:09 > 0:31:11a chance to reflect,

0:31:13 > 0:31:16work on your issues...

0:31:16 > 0:31:18Issues?

0:31:18 > 0:31:23I'm a patient man, Zainab, but everyone has their limits.

0:31:23 > 0:31:27- Yes, I'm sorry. I won't get upset... - Actions... Actions speak louder than words.

0:31:27 > 0:31:31- Yes.- We're married now.

0:31:31 > 0:31:34Perhaps if you can prove to me you can be a loyal wife...

0:31:34 > 0:31:35Of course.

0:31:35 > 0:31:39..then we can all be a family together.

0:31:39 > 0:31:43I've applied for a replacement passport - shouldn't be long now.

0:31:43 > 0:31:47And I'm arranging for a new mobile phone for you in Pakistan. OK?

0:31:47 > 0:31:48Thank you.

0:32:06 > 0:32:09- All right, Max? - Yeah. You all right, Ricky?

0:32:09 > 0:32:12- Sure you got enough there? - Yeah, well, kids deserve it, don't they?

0:32:12 > 0:32:14- Bianca's out tomorrow, ain't she? - Yeah.

0:32:14 > 0:32:18Happy days. Going to be a great Christmas. See you later.

0:32:26 > 0:32:27Oh, that's nice.

0:32:27 > 0:32:29Liam.

0:32:29 > 0:32:31Liam!

0:32:38 > 0:32:41- What did she want? - I ain't an idiot, you know.

0:32:41 > 0:32:44- What? - I get these things.

0:32:44 > 0:32:48You're in a mood cos you're worrying Mum's coming out... after that row you had.

0:32:48 > 0:32:53You know what she's like, kicks off over the slightest thing.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55Deep down, she don't mean it.

0:32:55 > 0:32:58Ricky.

0:33:01 > 0:33:03What about these?

0:33:03 > 0:33:09- Maybe not.- Can we actually afford anything for her, or what?

0:33:09 > 0:33:12Main thing is she'll be back.

0:33:15 > 0:33:19- Answer their questions. - But don't say too much. - Don't let them confuse you.

0:33:19 > 0:33:23- Good idea - play confused, Jean. - Don't tell her what to do - you be yourself...

0:33:23 > 0:33:27- It's not a date.- Yeah - flirt. - Remember the most important thing. - Don't mention my name.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30- We are here for you. - If the worst comes to the worst...

0:33:30 > 0:33:33- Lie.- No! You tell the truth. - No one's going to blame you. - I will.

0:33:33 > 0:33:36Nan! Are you sure I can't come with you?

0:33:36 > 0:33:39Absolutely not. I am more than capable of standing on my own two feet.

0:33:39 > 0:33:41- Really?- Really.

0:33:44 > 0:33:46- She'll be all right, won't she? - Yeah, course she will. She'll be fine.

0:33:46 > 0:33:50She wants to be, or I'm spending Christmas eating porridge.

0:33:50 > 0:33:54- So Kamil's staying with Bushra?- Yes.

0:33:56 > 0:33:59Sorry - just to clarify - this is Bushra the "scheming old witch"

0:33:59 > 0:34:02you'd rather stick pins in your eyes than talk to again?

0:34:02 > 0:34:04That Bushra?

0:34:04 > 0:34:08That's all in the past, all right? She's a very good friend of mine, she's helping me out.

0:34:08 > 0:34:10Do you know how much there is to do for this move?

0:34:13 > 0:34:16Mum's let Bushra Abbasi look after Kamil!

0:34:17 > 0:34:21Zulekha never said. Only spoke to her last night.

0:34:21 > 0:34:24It was a last-minute arrangement, right, Zainab?

0:34:24 > 0:34:25Right.

0:34:25 > 0:34:27Then why not let Dad?

0:34:27 > 0:34:28What?

0:34:28 > 0:34:30Seems perfectly reasonable to me.

0:34:30 > 0:34:34- You're acting really weird lately, Mum.- Tamwar! I've got a lot on my plate, all right?!

0:34:34 > 0:34:37Can you not understand that?

0:34:42 > 0:34:43Sorry.

0:34:50 > 0:34:51Everything OK?

0:34:51 > 0:34:54Yes, I'm absolutely fine, Afia.

0:34:54 > 0:34:57It's just a big move, and we're all feeling a bit anxious.

0:34:57 > 0:35:00But don't worry, I'll take good care of her.

0:35:00 > 0:35:04OK. I'll see you later.

0:35:13 > 0:35:16What did I say? What did I say?

0:35:16 > 0:35:19I covered for you - I said that... that Kamil was with Bushra...

0:35:19 > 0:35:23Exactly! Bushra? Afia is best friends with her daughter.

0:35:23 > 0:35:27- I'm sorry.- It's like you're deliberately trying to provoke me. - I'm not. I'm not.

0:35:27 > 0:35:32I'm trying to be a good wife, Yusef, please, I really am...

0:35:32 > 0:35:33Try harder.

0:35:33 > 0:35:34Yes.

0:35:41 > 0:35:42How're things back here?

0:35:42 > 0:35:45Yeah, good, thanks. Finally got Bobby's present sorted.

0:35:45 > 0:35:48From us.

0:35:48 > 0:35:49Thanks.

0:35:51 > 0:35:53Seen much of Masood?

0:35:53 > 0:35:55A bit.

0:35:55 > 0:35:56How is he?

0:35:56 > 0:35:59Putting on a brave face. It's not easy for him, Kamil being whisked away.

0:35:59 > 0:36:03It's not like he's being kidnapped, and dad can see him whenever he likes.

0:36:03 > 0:36:08And I'm sure you'll relish the peace and quiet - just the two of you.

0:36:08 > 0:36:10Funny, I hadn't thought about it like that.

0:36:10 > 0:36:12Guess I don't believe in using children.

0:36:12 > 0:36:17I'm sure Amira would agree with you. We want what's best for our daughter, that's why we set up the business.

0:36:17 > 0:36:20Which is why we'll be moving into Zainab's when she's gone.

0:36:20 > 0:36:21Hm!

0:36:26 > 0:36:30Watch your backs, folks, coming through, thank you!

0:36:30 > 0:36:33All right, gorgeous? Are you there, girls?

0:36:33 > 0:36:36- Here we are, right, I'll put these just here.- What are they?

0:36:36 > 0:36:39Something special. Something very special indeed...

0:36:39 > 0:36:42- You can't fit Kelly Rowland in there!- You want to lower your expectations?

0:36:42 > 0:36:44We don't want 'em. We've got...

0:36:44 > 0:36:46Hey! I'll explain all to you later.

0:36:46 > 0:36:49- But you will be thanking me. See you later!- Alfie!- Be good!

0:36:54 > 0:36:57Penguins? How on Earth are we going to shift these?

0:36:57 > 0:37:00Disneyland? Wish Alfie'd take me there.

0:37:00 > 0:37:02Are you going away, Ian?

0:37:02 > 0:37:05Yeah, like a pre-wedding, honeymoon thing.

0:37:05 > 0:37:08- Really?- Yeah - get some good deals in January...

0:37:08 > 0:37:09January?

0:37:09 > 0:37:11Yeah - be a fool to go peak season.

0:37:11 > 0:37:13And they say romance is dead. SHE LAUGHS

0:37:13 > 0:37:16Tell you what, if I could afford it, I'd take Bianca for Christmas.

0:37:16 > 0:37:21Guess it's only rich blokes that can do that, eh? Jammy gits.

0:37:24 > 0:37:27MUSIC BOX PLAYS Here, how much is this? Tiff would love it.

0:37:27 > 0:37:29Tenner.

0:37:32 > 0:37:37Here, he don't know what he's on about - it's a fiver.

0:37:38 > 0:37:39You sure?

0:37:39 > 0:37:41Course I am.

0:37:41 > 0:37:42- All right, Hev?- Mm-hm.

0:37:47 > 0:37:51Cos it's you, I'll throw in one of these as well.

0:37:51 > 0:37:54You're all heart, ain't ya?

0:37:54 > 0:37:56I'll see you later.

0:37:56 > 0:37:58Do I get a discount an' all?

0:37:58 > 0:38:00No! No, you don't. Bargain basement as it is, so no, sorry.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03So you have to be young and pretty to get one of them, then, do you?

0:38:03 > 0:38:05Which is why you get one as well.

0:38:05 > 0:38:07Oh, thank you.

0:38:07 > 0:38:09Boys, fancy earning a bit of extra cash?

0:38:09 > 0:38:10Depends.

0:38:10 > 0:38:11And is it legal?

0:38:11 > 0:38:14All it involves is a little bit of dressing up.

0:38:14 > 0:38:16BOTH: No.

0:38:16 > 0:38:18How much you paying, Mo?

0:38:21 > 0:38:23The factories there are incredible.

0:38:23 > 0:38:27We found this one managed by this guy who's agreed to manufacture all our stock.

0:38:27 > 0:38:31- And I'm overseeing the final designs this week.- Sounds like you're really going places.

0:38:31 > 0:38:35I wouldn't say Alan Sugar's got anything to worry about just yet. Mo Harris, maybe...

0:38:35 > 0:38:39- Don't! He's been winding me up all week.- Amira never imagined she'd end up flogging tat.

0:38:39 > 0:38:43- Nor did you! - True. But it's exciting though, isn't it? Starting out like this.

0:38:43 > 0:38:46And we really love Karachi, don't we, Sy?

0:38:46 > 0:38:48Yeah, it's beautiful.

0:38:48 > 0:38:50I can't wait for us all to be out there.

0:38:50 > 0:38:51Bit quiet, Mum.

0:38:51 > 0:38:54I'm delighted for you.

0:38:54 > 0:38:57You don't mind us looking after this place while you're away?

0:38:57 > 0:39:00- It's just that living with Jane, it's a just a bit...- Tense.

0:39:00 > 0:39:04Of course. That is, if you don't mind?

0:39:04 > 0:39:06Absolutely - makes perfect sense.

0:39:08 > 0:39:11Sy, we'd better go - got a meeting with Janine in ten

0:39:11 > 0:39:13and then back-to-back meetings after that.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18(DISTANT) What time did you say this meeting was?

0:39:18 > 0:39:21- I told you about it this morning. - Which one?

0:39:21 > 0:39:22Better.

0:39:22 > 0:39:26(DISTANT) Janine's first, I know that one...

0:39:26 > 0:39:28That's a table for eight at 2.45. Thank you, bye.

0:39:28 > 0:39:31- ASIAN ACCENT:- Ho! Ho! Ho! Hi hi hi!

0:39:31 > 0:39:34Who says Muslims can't do Christmas?

0:39:34 > 0:39:36A few people, but why quibble?

0:39:36 > 0:39:38- So, we on for lunch?- Lunch?

0:39:38 > 0:39:39Yeah, I texted you.

0:39:39 > 0:39:44Oh, I'm sorry, Dad, you did, but I have been rushed off my feet.

0:39:44 > 0:39:49And actually, I reckon if I didn't work today,

0:39:49 > 0:39:52Afia would literally kill me.

0:39:52 > 0:39:53I'd do worse than that.

0:39:53 > 0:39:57No worries. I guess it'll just have to be me and the little monster.

0:39:57 > 0:40:00Kamil's not at home.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03What d'you mean? Where is he?

0:40:05 > 0:40:09And it's like this fog comes down. It's like I'm two different people.

0:40:09 > 0:40:12Not in a nasty way, not like Jekyll and Hyde - well, sometimes.

0:40:12 > 0:40:15It's just that one day I'm up, the next day I'm down.

0:40:15 > 0:40:19Sorry, I'm babbling on, aren't I?

0:40:19 > 0:40:24Stacey used to always say that. "Stop going on, Mum, shut up, Mum!"

0:40:24 > 0:40:26Where was I? Erm...

0:40:28 > 0:40:31Oh, yeah, that's it!

0:40:31 > 0:40:35So, there's parts of me that thinks, "Yes, she broke the law, she's not mad,

0:40:35 > 0:40:37"and she knew exactly what was going on,"

0:40:37 > 0:40:38and there's another part of me

0:40:38 > 0:40:40that really didn't know what was happening

0:40:40 > 0:40:43and then when I realised I thought, "No, she's back again,

0:40:43 > 0:40:46"getting me into trouble, spoiling everything all over again,"

0:40:46 > 0:40:50and I think, "Please, please, don't let her be back again,"

0:40:50 > 0:40:55because I really, really don't think I could cope with that again...

0:40:55 > 0:40:58Sorry, can you explain who you're talking about?

0:40:58 > 0:40:59Who? Jean, of course.

0:41:04 > 0:41:08- KNOCK AT DOOR - You see? this is because of your ridiculous Bushra story.

0:41:08 > 0:41:10- I'm sorry.- Just make it right.

0:41:10 > 0:41:13KNOCKING PERSISTS

0:41:15 > 0:41:18Why, Zainab? Why are you trying to hurt me like this?

0:41:18 > 0:41:22- I won't talk until you calm down. - He's my son! I miss him.

0:41:24 > 0:41:26What is it? What's happened?

0:41:26 > 0:41:28Zainab?

0:41:28 > 0:41:31Kamil's fine - it's you who's upsetting my wife.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33Have you done this?

0:41:33 > 0:41:34Of course not.

0:41:34 > 0:41:39Bushra is a friend of mine, why are you making such a big deal of it?

0:41:39 > 0:41:41- Just tell her I'm coming to get him. - No.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43- I'll go anyway! - No. You can't.- Why not?

0:41:43 > 0:41:47Because...she has taken him on a day trip to see her cousin.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50- Where?- I came to find you when you were doing your postal rounds

0:41:50 > 0:41:54but I know how busy you get this time of year. Why are you getting so upset?

0:41:54 > 0:41:56You're taking my son halfway round the world

0:41:56 > 0:41:59and you didn't think I'd get upset that you've denied me one of the few times

0:41:59 > 0:42:01I get to spend with him?

0:42:01 > 0:42:03How heartless can you be?

0:42:03 > 0:42:06Please don't insult my wife.

0:42:08 > 0:42:10I know what you are.

0:42:10 > 0:42:12Just go, Masood.

0:42:12 > 0:42:15You may have taken my wife, but you are not taking my son.

0:42:15 > 0:42:20Do you understand? I will fight you every step of the way.

0:42:20 > 0:42:21Every step.

0:42:30 > 0:42:33I tried, I really tried my best!

0:42:40 > 0:42:45That's right, K-A-M-I-L. Yeah. They will? You mean that?

0:42:47 > 0:42:50OK, how long?

0:42:50 > 0:42:51OK, OK, all right.

0:42:51 > 0:42:53OK, thank you. Bye.

0:42:53 > 0:42:55Who was that?

0:42:55 > 0:42:57Where are the boys?

0:42:59 > 0:43:00They're not coming.

0:43:02 > 0:43:05MO HUMS "WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS"

0:43:07 > 0:43:09Mo, what is this?

0:43:09 > 0:43:13This, Alfie, my boy, is what's known in the trade as a gold mine.

0:43:13 > 0:43:15- In't it lovely?- What is it?

0:43:15 > 0:43:16It's a grotto, of course.

0:43:16 > 0:43:19I mean, it will be, once it's finished.

0:43:19 > 0:43:22You are looking at Walford's very own Santa Claus.

0:43:22 > 0:43:24- Come here, you.- Ho ho ho...

0:43:24 > 0:43:27Bit hypocritical, innit? You asking kids if they've been good or not

0:43:27 > 0:43:29when you're defrauding the benefit office?

0:43:29 > 0:43:32I've gotta find the cash somewhere to pay for this fine, ain't I?

0:43:32 > 0:43:37Who needs Daddy when we've got Father Christmas? Yeah, look!

0:43:37 > 0:43:39Oh, are you all right? You all right? Eh?

0:43:41 > 0:43:42You'd better watch out.

0:43:42 > 0:43:45What? Why?

0:43:45 > 0:43:48It's just, that costume...

0:43:48 > 0:43:50it's not good for your elf!

0:43:50 > 0:43:53I'm trying to make this nice for George!

0:43:53 > 0:43:56We've gotta spend Christmas on our own now.

0:43:56 > 0:44:00I didn't mean anything by it, it was...just a joke.

0:44:06 > 0:44:09Come and get your penguins, £10 each.

0:44:09 > 0:44:12£10 and I'll throw the bag in for free.

0:44:12 > 0:44:16Come on, £10, penguins, £10 each, have a look.

0:44:16 > 0:44:20Come on, treat the family.

0:44:20 > 0:44:23Waddle over, get a penguin. Here, mate, you want a penguin?

0:44:40 > 0:44:43- How'd it go?- All right, I think. - What were they like?

0:44:43 > 0:44:46Nice. Very nice. He did a lot of listening.

0:44:46 > 0:44:49- Which means you did all the gassing. - What about the dosh?

0:44:49 > 0:44:51They said they'd let me know.

0:44:51 > 0:44:53And you kept my name out of it?

0:44:53 > 0:44:55- I think so.- Yes or no, Jean?

0:44:55 > 0:44:57You did brilliantly, Jean. I'm proud of you.

0:44:57 > 0:45:00I hope so. I mean, I hope I didn't let you down.

0:45:00 > 0:45:02Come on, let's get you a drink.

0:45:03 > 0:45:05PHONE RINGS

0:45:05 > 0:45:06I'll get it.

0:45:06 > 0:45:08Hello, Queen Vic?

0:45:08 > 0:45:11- You all right, Max?- Yeah, not bad. Is everything all right with Jean?

0:45:11 > 0:45:13Yeah, why?

0:45:13 > 0:45:15She just seems a bit on edge, that's all.

0:45:15 > 0:45:18- We all are, thanks to Nan. - You sure that's all it is?

0:45:18 > 0:45:20What d'you mean?

0:45:20 > 0:45:22I just saw her and she didn't have a jacket on.

0:45:22 > 0:45:24So?

0:45:24 > 0:45:27It's a sign, innit? You know, not feeling the cold an' all that.

0:45:27 > 0:45:28A sign?

0:45:28 > 0:45:31You know, same thing happened to Stacey, didn't it?

0:45:31 > 0:45:35I think I'd know, Max, seeing as I live under the same roof as her.

0:45:35 > 0:45:39I'm just saying, it might not be a bad idea just to keep an eye on her.

0:45:39 > 0:45:45When I want advice on how to deal with stuff that's happening with my family, I'll ask for it. Clear?

0:45:47 > 0:45:50- Yeah.- Right, what you drinking? - I'm all right.

0:46:01 > 0:46:02Merry Christmas, Mum!

0:46:02 > 0:46:09Well, thank you, but aren't you a few days too early?

0:46:09 > 0:46:14Yeah, we thought you'd be here. We're off to Paris for a few days.

0:46:15 > 0:46:22- Paris?- Yeah. I'm sorry it's short notice, but he wanted you to have something to open on Christmas Day.

0:46:24 > 0:46:26But you'll miss the talent show!

0:46:26 > 0:46:28That's a blessing.

0:46:28 > 0:46:30Mickey Mouse is way better than a violin.

0:46:30 > 0:46:32We're off to Disneyland.

0:46:34 > 0:46:38Well, lucky you. Have you got time for a cuppa?

0:46:38 > 0:46:40Cab's waiting.

0:46:41 > 0:46:43Right, so... So, this is it!

0:46:43 > 0:46:49Well, I tell you what, I'll save your present for when you get back.

0:46:53 > 0:46:58- You have the best Christmas ever, won't you, little man?- I will.

0:47:00 > 0:47:03Right, mate, come on, then. Thanks.

0:47:23 > 0:47:26As I said, Mr Ahmed's alerted us to his absence and we need to look into it.

0:47:26 > 0:47:30- I'm sure you understand. - And, as- I- said, my son is with a very good friend of mine.

0:47:30 > 0:47:33I needed a break. Why is this turning into such an issue?

0:47:33 > 0:47:35The officer's only trying to do her job.

0:47:35 > 0:47:38If we can have the address and a recent photograph?

0:47:38 > 0:47:41My son's childcare is my own business.

0:47:41 > 0:47:42It's OK.

0:47:42 > 0:47:46- Let me write it down for you. - Thank you.

0:47:48 > 0:47:51Why don't you get the photo, my love?

0:47:52 > 0:47:54Yes.

0:48:04 > 0:48:07Hey!

0:48:16 > 0:48:18MANDY LAUGHS

0:48:22 > 0:48:26- All right?- All right? - Just wanted to say, congratulations,

0:48:26 > 0:48:29you know, for the wedding or whatever it is.

0:48:29 > 0:48:31Thanks.

0:48:31 > 0:48:34And, have a great time in Paris.

0:48:34 > 0:48:36How'd you know about that?

0:48:36 > 0:48:37What?

0:48:37 > 0:48:40Ian's only just booked it, so how do you know?

0:48:40 > 0:48:44You convinced him to take me, didn't you? Get me out the way?

0:48:44 > 0:48:45No.

0:48:45 > 0:48:49Yeah. I saw you sweating it earlier when I was talking to little Liam.

0:48:49 > 0:48:52Do you honestly think I would go blabbing to a little kid?

0:48:52 > 0:48:54Thanks a lot, Ricky.

0:48:54 > 0:48:56Ready, hun? We got a train to catch.

0:48:56 > 0:48:59- Yeah, Paris, here we come! - Yes, baby! See ya later.

0:49:00 > 0:49:03- BELL RINGS - Hear ye, hear ye!

0:49:03 > 0:49:07It gives me great pleasure to declare Mo's Grotto -

0:49:07 > 0:49:10in association with Moon Productions - officially open!

0:49:10 > 0:49:12CHEERING

0:49:12 > 0:49:15- Here, don't forget to get the money off 'em.- I won't.

0:49:15 > 0:49:18One of these, yeah?

0:49:18 > 0:49:21I'm sorry about before.

0:49:21 > 0:49:23Don't worry. I know I look stupid.

0:49:23 > 0:49:26Not to the kids

0:49:26 > 0:49:28and not to me.

0:49:30 > 0:49:34Heather, I was wondering...

0:49:34 > 0:49:37is there any chance you, erm...

0:49:37 > 0:49:40might want to spend Christmas with me?

0:49:42 > 0:49:45Oh, no, I've upset you again. I'm sorry.

0:49:47 > 0:49:49Does that stuff work on elves?

0:49:52 > 0:49:54CHILDREN: Whoooo!

0:49:56 > 0:49:59Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on, is that it?

0:49:59 > 0:50:01What d'you mean, is that it?

0:50:01 > 0:50:04- You gave us penguins, we made penguin lemonade! - Sold the lot, mate.

0:50:05 > 0:50:09Oh, tell me you're winding me up.

0:50:09 > 0:50:11Look, have you not worked it out?

0:50:11 > 0:50:13The penguins, all right, got cameras in the eye,

0:50:13 > 0:50:15this plugs into the monitor.

0:50:15 > 0:50:18- They're nanny-cams!- Whatty-cams?

0:50:18 > 0:50:21For spying on your grandma! You pair of idiots!

0:50:27 > 0:50:30- Kamil's safe? - Absolutely. He's there with his mother's permission.

0:50:30 > 0:50:34As long as she's happy, it doesn't matter what the child's father thinks!

0:50:34 > 0:50:37- Masood, be reasonable. - Where's reasonable got me so far?

0:50:37 > 0:50:40They took my son without a word to me and put him with somebody he hardly knows

0:50:40 > 0:50:45- and the law stands by and does nothing!- We can't get involved in a domestic dispute, Mr Ahmed.

0:50:45 > 0:50:48Well, where are my rights? My rights as a father? Answer me that.

0:50:52 > 0:50:55He's just a bit upset. Thanks.

0:50:59 > 0:51:02You agree with them, do you? What they've done?

0:51:02 > 0:51:07Of course I don't! I'm on your side, you know that. But that's why you have to follow the rules.

0:51:07 > 0:51:11Like you did with Bobby? Where did that leave you? Christmas Day without him, that's where.

0:51:11 > 0:51:14Oh, Jane, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry,

0:51:14 > 0:51:18I didn't mean that. I didn't. It's just... I'm just...

0:51:18 > 0:51:23I'm angry and I'm really scared... I just want my son!

0:51:23 > 0:51:27I let Bobby go because if I'd made a scene it would've ruined Christmas for him,

0:51:27 > 0:51:30- but your situation's different. - Let's just not talk about it!

0:51:30 > 0:51:33It's my problem, you won't have to deal with it, all right?

0:51:42 > 0:51:45- Listen... - I think I should go.

0:51:45 > 0:51:47Jane, you're annoyed with me.

0:51:47 > 0:51:52No, I'm not annoyed with you, I just...

0:51:52 > 0:51:55I just think this isn't the best time for us.

0:51:55 > 0:51:58- You're ending it?- No, of course I'm not, I'd never do that,

0:51:58 > 0:52:00you make me feel like a lovesick teenager,

0:52:00 > 0:52:04but I just know more than anybody that you need some space

0:52:04 > 0:52:06and I can wait.

0:52:06 > 0:52:08Holding off for a few weeks,

0:52:08 > 0:52:11it's not going to make any difference is it?

0:52:11 > 0:52:12Hm?

0:52:12 > 0:52:14Well...

0:52:32 > 0:52:36- It wouldn't feel right! - What, like I'm trying to entice you into my web or something?

0:52:36 > 0:52:41- No, no, it's not that.- I'm kidding. Look, you have to admit, it's the right image - solid, reliable...

0:52:41 > 0:52:44You really think the investors are that traditional?

0:52:44 > 0:52:47Trust me, I've done my research - they're as old school as they come.

0:52:47 > 0:52:50I don't know, it feels a bit weird.

0:52:50 > 0:52:54They think we're married already. It just stops any awkward questions.

0:52:56 > 0:52:58OK, but as soon as the meeting's over...

0:52:58 > 0:53:00The rings are off.

0:53:05 > 0:53:08Hiya, it's only me.

0:53:08 > 0:53:12I just wondered if you fancied keeping me company this Christmas.

0:53:17 > 0:53:21- STEREO PLAYS: - # Christmas Day is here

0:53:21 > 0:53:23# The most wonderful day of the year... #

0:53:23 > 0:53:25Liam.

0:53:25 > 0:53:26PHONE RINGS

0:53:28 > 0:53:30Hello?

0:53:30 > 0:53:32Bianca?

0:53:32 > 0:53:33What's wrong?

0:53:35 > 0:53:38TRAIN RUMBLES IN THE DISTANCE

0:53:54 > 0:53:57CAMERA BLEEPS

0:54:03 > 0:54:06Thought you might like one of these.

0:54:06 > 0:54:10Oh, aren't you lovely?

0:54:10 > 0:54:11Thank you.

0:54:11 > 0:54:18You're like an angel sent here to make everything better.

0:54:23 > 0:54:25It will get better, won't it?

0:54:33 > 0:54:36- Think about this. - That's what I've been doing all day.

0:54:36 > 0:54:39When Bushra gets back from her day trip, I'll be waiting.

0:54:39 > 0:54:44- Do you really think that's a good idea?- Why not? I'm doing exactly what your mother did to me.

0:54:44 > 0:54:48Exactly! It's tit for tat. Imagine how Kamil feels being caught in the middle.

0:54:48 > 0:54:49I'll protect him.

0:54:49 > 0:54:54You know it'll just turn into war, OK? And Mum's not strong enough to cope with that at the moment.

0:54:54 > 0:54:58D'you know, I just couldn't care less about that woman.

0:54:58 > 0:55:00Oh!

0:55:00 > 0:55:02You know what?

0:55:02 > 0:55:06Dad, this time last year, you were married, you loved her.

0:55:06 > 0:55:08Doesn't that mean anything?

0:55:16 > 0:55:18Thank you.

0:55:22 > 0:55:27Yusef, you were right, it's been good to reflect.

0:55:29 > 0:55:32I'm very ashamed of how I have behaved...

0:55:35 > 0:55:38..but haven't I proved to you today that I can be a good wife,

0:55:38 > 0:55:41I can be a loyal wife?

0:55:43 > 0:55:46You've done very well.

0:55:48 > 0:55:53Then where is he, Yusef? Yusef, where is my son?

0:55:53 > 0:55:56Please, Yusef, he'll be crying for me. He'll be crying for me,

0:55:56 > 0:55:59please, I'm begging you! Is he OK? Is he OK?

0:55:59 > 0:56:02Tell me something, tell me anything, please!

0:56:02 > 0:56:04Please, Yusef, please!

0:56:04 > 0:56:07Don't spoil it, Zainab.

0:56:09 > 0:56:12This - this is perfect, isn't it?

0:56:12 > 0:56:17Finally, just the two of us.

0:56:18 > 0:56:22And think, soon we'll all be enjoying our new life in Karachi.

0:56:22 > 0:56:24Yes.

0:56:42 > 0:56:45There.

0:56:46 > 0:56:48Beautiful.

0:56:59 > 0:57:01Oh?!

0:57:01 > 0:57:05That's the prison window and they're the bars on it.

0:57:05 > 0:57:09It's very good. What's the dinosaur? Is that your mum?

0:57:09 > 0:57:12No! That's a bird, flying away, like Mum's flying out of prison.

0:57:12 > 0:57:15But I couldn't find a bird

0:57:15 > 0:57:18so I had to use Morgan's pterodactyl.

0:57:18 > 0:57:19He don't like dinosaurs no more.

0:57:20 > 0:57:25No? Here, why don't you practise your song again?

0:57:25 > 0:57:28Ready, steady, go!

0:57:28 > 0:57:31# So here it is, Merry Christmas

0:57:31 > 0:57:36# Everybody's having fun

0:57:36 > 0:57:39# Look to the future now

0:57:39 > 0:57:46# It's only just begu-u-u-n. #

0:57:46 > 0:57:49I don't know, maybe it's the halo.

0:57:49 > 0:57:52- You know what I think we need? - A new costume?

0:57:52 > 0:57:53No, Kat. Come on!

0:57:53 > 0:57:57# Little donkey, little donkey

0:57:57 > 0:58:00# On the dusty trail. #

0:58:01 > 0:58:05- Angel Gabriel never went on a donkey.- Course he didn't. I know.

0:58:05 > 0:58:09- He? Angel Gabriel weren't a he! - Yes, he was a he.

0:58:09 > 0:58:10Why'd he wear a dress, then?

0:58:10 > 0:58:14Well, maybe he was a little bit confused, all right?

0:58:14 > 0:58:16Anyone seen me beard?

0:58:16 > 0:58:18A bit like Mo?

0:58:18 > 0:58:20Yes, exactly, a bit like Mo. Yes!

0:58:20 > 0:58:22Tommy, who's that?

0:58:22 > 0:58:25Mo. Mo, I've just remembered my dream.

0:58:25 > 0:58:29I was standing by this lake. I don't know how I got there.

0:58:29 > 0:58:31You never know how you get there, do you?

0:58:31 > 0:58:35Just, bang, and you're there. Anyway, it was beautiful.

0:58:35 > 0:58:41Completely frozen and all sparkling. And there she was - my Stacey.

0:58:41 > 0:58:44And she said not to worry about the benefits fraud people.

0:58:44 > 0:58:46That she was going to send me a sign

0:58:46 > 0:58:49and that I would know exactly what to do.

0:58:49 > 0:58:52And then I woke up. In't that funny?

0:58:52 > 0:58:54Where's me chuffin' beard?

0:58:56 > 0:58:59You shouldn't have to worry about the benefits people -

0:58:59 > 0:59:02you shoulda lied to 'em properly.

0:59:02 > 0:59:06- They've come for me.- That's right, Jean, they've come to cart you off.

0:59:18 > 0:59:21Please tell me that's your passport.

0:59:24 > 0:59:26Masood's trying to stop us taking Kamil.

0:59:29 > 0:59:31Doesn't give up, does he?

0:59:31 > 0:59:34We'll be long gone before the courts can act on this.

0:59:34 > 0:59:35DOOR SHUTS

0:59:35 > 0:59:38- AFIA:- Don't look so worried, it was the right thing to do.

0:59:38 > 0:59:39TAMWAR: I know.

0:59:39 > 0:59:42You told your dad to stay away from your mum, and he'll stay away.

0:59:45 > 0:59:47DOOR SLAMS

0:59:47 > 0:59:49Oi, leave that, come here.

0:59:53 > 0:59:54What's she walking funny for?

0:59:54 > 0:59:57'Tiff, you've got something stuck on the bottom.'

0:59:57 > 0:59:58BOTH: Woah!

0:59:58 > 1:00:01- That's better. Pack it in, you two. - Stop laughing!

1:00:02 > 1:00:05- Sorry, you do look really cute, babe.- And towards me, again.

1:00:06 > 1:00:08Why's she walking funny?

1:00:08 > 1:00:11Because Nana Pat's made it too tight, hasn't she?

1:00:11 > 1:00:14Oi, watch what you say - Nana Pat's still got scissors in her hand.

1:00:14 > 1:00:17Listen, sit down. Your dad wants to tell you something.

1:00:17 > 1:00:19You're going to Dubai again?

1:00:19 > 1:00:20No, no.

1:00:20 > 1:00:23Are we getting a new Wellard?

1:00:23 > 1:00:26- Ah, you didn't drop the cake?! - Just let him speak.

1:00:28 > 1:00:30Look, your mum...

1:00:30 > 1:00:35she really wanted to come home today, but there's been a bit of a hold-up.

1:00:35 > 1:00:36Like a bank robbery?

1:00:36 > 1:00:40No. She's had to stay in the nick a little bit longer just to...

1:00:40 > 1:00:42Help deliver the Christmas cards.

1:00:42 > 1:00:45- What about my show?- I'm sorry, Tiff.

1:00:45 > 1:00:47We'll all be there, won't we, Tiff?

1:00:49 > 1:00:52# So here it is, Merry Christmas

1:00:52 > 1:00:56# Everybody's having fun

1:00:56 > 1:00:59# Look to the future now

1:00:59 > 1:01:03- # It's only just begun. # - It's her, isn't it? She's the one.

1:01:11 > 1:01:13Oi, Santa. You're on my turf.

1:01:13 > 1:01:14Move along!

1:01:14 > 1:01:18Blimey, he's got a nice suit, in't he, eh, Mo?

1:01:18 > 1:01:20I've got a nice suit, too.

1:01:20 > 1:01:23- Merry Christmas! - Yeah, Merry Christmas to you!

1:01:23 > 1:01:26- Traitor! - Yeah, you should try shaving.

1:01:26 > 1:01:28Oi, get stuffed!

1:01:30 > 1:01:34I've got to draw a line. A line in the sand.

1:01:34 > 1:01:37Zainab and that husband of hers on one side...

1:01:38 > 1:01:41..me and my sanity on the other.

1:01:41 > 1:01:43Wow. That's very...Zen.

1:01:43 > 1:01:47- Could you come here and give us a hand, please, with this lot? Please?- Mmm.

1:01:49 > 1:01:54I've got to give Zainab space. I've got to give me space.

1:01:54 > 1:01:57- Get that from a self-help book, did ya?- Oh, Tam, he's a wise boy.

1:01:58 > 1:02:02Yeah, and then I was thinking of cooking Jane a making-up meal.

1:02:02 > 1:02:05Steak and kidney pie, what d'you think?

1:02:05 > 1:02:10Yes, cos...nothing says romance like kidneys(!) Here, look at this.

1:02:11 > 1:02:15"Happy Christmas, 'Dense', from everyone at your local branch."

1:02:15 > 1:02:19Everyone at my branch is a flaming imbecile.

1:02:22 > 1:02:23What?

1:02:33 > 1:02:36SHE HUMS

1:02:39 > 1:02:41You got the loveliest hair.

1:02:42 > 1:02:44Dark as a raven.

1:02:45 > 1:02:47Stacey has lovely hair.

1:02:48 > 1:02:50You're the sign, aren't you?

1:02:50 > 1:02:54- What sign?- She said I'd know what to do when I saw you,

1:02:54 > 1:02:57but I don't know... I don't know what to do.

1:02:58 > 1:03:00I don't like it when you talk funny.

1:03:00 > 1:03:03Think, Jean, think, think. Stacey and the lake,

1:03:03 > 1:03:06Stacey and the lake, Stacey and...

1:03:06 > 1:03:09Stacey Slater, ice skater!

1:03:09 > 1:03:11We're going ice skating!

1:03:11 > 1:03:13What about my show?

1:03:16 > 1:03:18Her mobile's dead.

1:03:18 > 1:03:20She can't keep doing this -

1:03:20 > 1:03:22pushing me away, and then asking me for help.

1:03:22 > 1:03:24But why write a letter?

1:03:25 > 1:03:27She's messing with me.

1:03:27 > 1:03:32How often does Zainab ask for help? Come on, she's scared.

1:03:32 > 1:03:34Well, she seemed all right when I last saw her.

1:03:34 > 1:03:38Yeah, but who was she with? Yusef.

1:03:39 > 1:03:40Ergh!

1:03:43 > 1:03:47- All right, darling, cheers.- Right, Kat, here y'are, what d'you reckon?

1:03:47 > 1:03:49Bit small for you, innit?

1:03:49 > 1:03:51- She upstairs?- Who? - Angel Gabriel.

1:03:52 > 1:03:56- You took her with you. - No, I said she was staying here with you, didn't I?

1:03:56 > 1:03:59- Shenice?- Shenice?

1:04:03 > 1:04:06Please, Jean! I don't want to go ice skating any more.

1:04:06 > 1:04:09- We should go home. - We can't. She sent YOU!

1:04:09 > 1:04:13- YOU'RE the sign!- Jean, you should've got dressed. Come home!

1:04:15 > 1:04:19She sent me an angel to show me the way out of the darkness

1:04:19 > 1:04:21and into the light.

1:04:21 > 1:04:26We've gotta go ice skating cos something really lovely's going to happen. Come on.

1:04:27 > 1:04:30- No, we're going to be late! - Come and catch me!

1:04:33 > 1:04:37- Jean must've taken her out for a walk.- Why didn't she tell ya?!

1:04:37 > 1:04:39PHONE RINGS She didn't even bring her phone!

1:04:39 > 1:04:41SMOKE ALARM BEEPS

1:04:41 > 1:04:43- What's that?- I don't know. - Quick, what is it?

1:04:43 > 1:04:47It's all right, it's all right, calm down, I don't know.

1:04:47 > 1:04:50- What's that? - I don't know, darling, I don't know.

1:04:57 > 1:04:59This isn't Zainab. None of it makes sense.

1:04:59 > 1:05:01Nothing's made sense since Zainab's been with him.

1:05:01 > 1:05:04Well, exactly. When I was with Owen, I changed.

1:05:04 > 1:05:08Everyone said, but no-one knew why. I was too proud to tell them.

1:05:08 > 1:05:11But look, Zainab, she's trying to tell you.

1:05:11 > 1:05:13No, no! Zainab's not...

1:05:14 > 1:05:15Not...?

1:05:16 > 1:05:17Not what?

1:05:18 > 1:05:21Oh, weak? Not a pushover?

1:05:22 > 1:05:26Well, neither am I, and look what happened to me.

1:05:26 > 1:05:28You know what, I asked her.

1:05:28 > 1:05:31I asked her on her wedding day if he was hurting her

1:05:31 > 1:05:34and she made me feel like an idiot. Flat denied it.

1:05:34 > 1:05:37Well, you would, wouldn't you? Because that is what you do.

1:05:37 > 1:05:39Masood, she's scared.

1:05:39 > 1:05:42And she's asking for your help.

1:05:46 > 1:05:48CAR HORN BEEPS

1:05:49 > 1:05:50Have you seen my angel?

1:05:50 > 1:05:54CAR HORNS BEEP

1:05:58 > 1:05:59Oh...

1:05:59 > 1:06:02Excuse me, have you seen my angel?

1:06:03 > 1:06:04Jean!

1:06:06 > 1:06:08Wait! Wait!

1:06:19 > 1:06:22Bet you're relieved you don't have to face Bianca yet.

1:06:22 > 1:06:25But you're going to have to face her eventually, you know.

1:06:25 > 1:06:30- And when I do what do I say? - Nothing. You say absolutely nothing.

1:06:30 > 1:06:32KNOCK AT DOOR

1:06:32 > 1:06:35Go and talk to her.

1:06:38 > 1:06:39Tiff?

1:06:43 > 1:06:46Me and Shenice were going to have our hair in French plaits.

1:06:46 > 1:06:49But only Mum can do French plaits.

1:06:50 > 1:06:53I can do 'em. Is it when they go like that?

1:06:53 > 1:06:54No.

1:06:56 > 1:06:59Oh... How about me and you go and see Father Christmas, eh?

1:06:59 > 1:07:02It's not the real Father Christmas -

1:07:02 > 1:07:04it's just Mo with a beard.

1:07:04 > 1:07:06How's your mum, babe?

1:07:08 > 1:07:10Well, the treatment's finished so...

1:07:12 > 1:07:13How's Bianca?

1:07:14 > 1:07:16Don't ask.

1:07:16 > 1:07:17What?

1:07:18 > 1:07:20I don't know.

1:07:20 > 1:07:24She's going to come out and find out all this stuff, ain't she?

1:07:24 > 1:07:25What stuff?

1:07:28 > 1:07:31Not a lot she could have done in there.

1:07:31 > 1:07:32Look, she'll understand. She will.

1:07:36 > 1:07:39Yeah. You seeing Caveman Moon tonight?

1:07:39 > 1:07:41He's really not that bad!

1:07:41 > 1:07:43THEY GIGGLE

1:07:45 > 1:07:50'But seriously, who cares when he looks that good in the buff!'

1:07:50 > 1:07:54- You hear that?- Bet you feel really good about yourself, don't ya?

1:07:54 > 1:07:56'If he looks that good in the buff who cares?

1:07:56 > 1:07:59'He can't even string a sentence together!'

1:07:59 > 1:08:03- 'He's not stupid, Whitney. - He's a Neanderthal though, in't he?

1:08:03 > 1:08:06'I'm surprised he's not dragging you round by your hair.'

1:08:06 > 1:08:09THEY LAUGH

1:08:10 > 1:08:12I gotta get that penguin back.

1:08:12 > 1:08:16So what can I get YOU for Christmas, little girl?

1:08:16 > 1:08:18Nothing much, Mo.

1:08:18 > 1:08:21Who's Mo? I'm Santa.

1:08:21 > 1:08:24Didn't you want some of those wheelie shoes?

1:08:24 > 1:08:26I don't want anything.

1:08:26 > 1:08:28Just my mum to see me in my show.

1:08:31 > 1:08:33OK, so I ain't the real deal,

1:08:33 > 1:08:36but I got a mate who knows a mate who knows Santa.

1:08:36 > 1:08:37I'll have a word.

1:08:39 > 1:08:44- Tracey, hold the fort, darling. - Kat! Alfie! Jean's not very well.

1:08:44 > 1:08:46It's all right, it's OK, I got you, I got you, I got you.

1:08:46 > 1:08:52- There she is. There's my angel! - What's happened?- No, no, no, don't take her away from me!

1:08:52 > 1:08:53Stop, stop!

1:09:00 > 1:09:01Zainab in? Zee!

1:09:01 > 1:09:04Zee, darling, you couldn't do us a favour, could you?

1:09:04 > 1:09:08Helen's supposed to be working today and the Minute Mart Christmas party

1:09:08 > 1:09:10got messy and she ain't showed up.

1:09:10 > 1:09:14- Zainab doesn't work for you any more.- I'll pay you double.

1:09:14 > 1:09:18- I'm sorry, I'm packing. - Zee, come on, do us a favour.

1:09:18 > 1:09:20I made a terrible mistake, help me.

1:09:20 > 1:09:25- A mistake, what d'you mean? - Well, getting someone in to cover.

1:09:25 > 1:09:28You know what Helen's like, she always has just one too many.

1:09:28 > 1:09:31I suppose I could. If you're desperate.

1:09:31 > 1:09:32An hour won't hurt.

1:09:34 > 1:09:35No. No, I s'pose not.

1:09:38 > 1:09:42- You'll never guess who Helen copped off with.- Who?- Steve from Cost Mart.

1:09:42 > 1:09:46Oh! The man with the boss eyes? Awful little man.

1:09:50 > 1:09:54I don't know why you employ that woman. She's so obnoxious. And her clothes are always crumpled...

1:09:54 > 1:09:56What's happening, Zee?

1:09:56 > 1:09:59Just keep talking. He's watching. And I'm not doing any stock taking.

1:09:59 > 1:10:02Who said anything about stock taking? I never did.

1:10:02 > 1:10:04Well, regardless, I'm not doing it.

1:10:33 > 1:10:35- I got your note. - What's he done to you, Zee?

1:10:35 > 1:10:38- He's taken Kamil.- What?! - To Bushra's?

1:10:38 > 1:10:41- No.- You said he was at Bushra's.

1:10:41 > 1:10:43- You said he was fine! - He just took Kamil?

1:10:43 > 1:10:47- You let him take our son?! - No!- Did you try to stop him?

1:10:47 > 1:10:50Of course, I tried, but I couldn't. I had no choice!

1:10:50 > 1:10:54- Of course you had a choice! Where is he? Where's Kamil?!- Masood...

1:10:54 > 1:10:57- I don't know.- She's lying. She knows where he is. Where is he?

1:10:57 > 1:10:59SHE SCREAMS

1:11:07 > 1:11:10Masood, please, Masood, no...

1:11:18 > 1:11:20Oh, Zee.

1:11:22 > 1:11:25ZAINAB CRIES

1:11:25 > 1:11:27Where is she, then? Oh, there she is!

1:11:27 > 1:11:32- Jean. Jean, come on, in the front room, darling.- Why can't I see my... Hello, little angel!

1:11:32 > 1:11:33Come on, good girl.

1:11:33 > 1:11:37You all right, sweetheart? Just got some grown-up talk, I won't be long.

1:11:37 > 1:11:40You can call a psych nurse, you can call a doctor,

1:11:40 > 1:11:43you can call the flaming flying squad if you think they'll do any good,

1:11:43 > 1:11:46- but she ain't staying here. - I can cope. I've done this before.

1:11:46 > 1:11:52- Like when she tried to drown herself in the bath?- She ain't that bad, not this time.

1:11:52 > 1:11:53Not yet, Kat.

1:11:53 > 1:11:56I know you can cope all right, but what about the rest of us?

1:11:56 > 1:12:00What about Shenice? Do you want her to go through what Stacey went through?

1:12:04 > 1:12:07All I'm... Oh, here she is!

1:12:07 > 1:12:11Hello, kitten! Look at that, eh? Show time.

1:12:11 > 1:12:15- Are you still coming? - < Can I see my angel? - Sorry, darlin'.

1:12:15 > 1:12:20- Don't worry, I'm going to film it. Kat can watch it later, can't you, darl'?- Yeah, with popcorn.

1:12:20 > 1:12:22I want to sleep in your bed tonight.

1:12:22 > 1:12:25Listen, tell you what, kitten, we'll talk about it later, yeah?

1:12:25 > 1:12:28Get your coat, it's bit chilly outside, all right.

1:12:28 > 1:12:31- Good girl. - < Can I see the angel?

1:12:31 > 1:12:33It's Christmas. She needs to be with us.

1:12:33 > 1:12:38- KNOCKING AT DOOR - Can I see my little angel, please?

1:12:48 > 1:12:51Has Yusef said ANYTHING? The name of a person, a town, a street?

1:12:51 > 1:12:54- Anywhere Kamil could be?- Nothing! - You know what, ask to see him.

1:12:54 > 1:12:58I have done. It doesn't do any good! I'm scared for Kamil.

1:12:58 > 1:13:02- I'm so scared for him.- We'll go to the police. Together this time.- No!

1:13:02 > 1:13:07- There's the court order, right? - No, you don't understand, OK? Yusef is capable of anything.

1:13:07 > 1:13:11He will hurt Kamil if I don't do exactly what he says.

1:13:13 > 1:13:14I'm going to kill him.

1:13:14 > 1:13:17- Masood!- I'm going to kill that man! He's got my son!

1:13:17 > 1:13:21No! No... Listen to me! If you go over there...

1:13:21 > 1:13:25if he knows that we've been talking, Kamil's life is in danger.

1:13:25 > 1:13:27- Sshh.- Tamwar's life is in danger.

1:13:27 > 1:13:30DOOR OPENS

1:13:30 > 1:13:33OK, OK, just stay here.

1:13:39 > 1:13:42- < Carol! You all right?- Just getting some sweets for the kids.

1:13:42 > 1:13:46Something to keep 'em quiet through Tiff's show.

1:13:46 > 1:13:48What do we do, Masood?

1:13:48 > 1:13:51He would've taken us to Pakistan by now

1:13:51 > 1:13:54if I hadn't thrown my passport away.

1:13:54 > 1:13:56And when the new passport arrives...

1:13:56 > 1:13:59Oh, Masood, what do we do, what do we do?

1:14:04 > 1:14:06Zainab...

1:14:06 > 1:14:07you have to go back.

1:14:08 > 1:14:13- No...!- I know, I know, I know, but you have to go back, Zainab.

1:14:13 > 1:14:15- I can't, Masood.- You can, Zainab.

1:14:15 > 1:14:19Think of what he'll do to Kamil, think of what he'll do to Tamwar.

1:14:19 > 1:14:22No, you go back, you play along like nothing's wrong.

1:14:22 > 1:14:25You're leaving with him, you're happy. Listen to me, Zainab.

1:14:25 > 1:14:28Please listen to me! And then you tell Tamwar what's going on.

1:14:28 > 1:14:31No. I can't tell him - he will tell Afia.

1:14:31 > 1:14:33And she's close to her father...

1:14:33 > 1:14:36OK. OK, then you use that. You use that. You use Afia...

1:14:36 > 1:14:41You talk to her. Tell her you miss him, tell her you miss Kamil and you want to see him.

1:14:41 > 1:14:44Get her to talk to Yusef. She's the only one that can persuade him.

1:14:44 > 1:14:46But he can't know it's coming from you.

1:14:46 > 1:14:49OK? Zainab? He can't know it's coming from you.

1:14:49 > 1:14:53- I don't know if I can do that. - Yes, you CAN do it, Zainab. Come on.

1:14:53 > 1:14:55- And then you call me. - He's taken my phone.

1:14:57 > 1:15:01- Then you get another phone. - < It's Yusef! - Get Tam's phone.

1:15:05 > 1:15:08- Where is she?- Oh, she's inside.

1:15:08 > 1:15:11- See ya!- See you, Carol. Yusef, there was something I needed to ask you.

1:15:11 > 1:15:14Don't make me go back to him. Please, Masood.

1:15:14 > 1:15:17Masood, please don't make me go back to him. Please.

1:15:17 > 1:15:21- I'm sorry.- No, please... - I'm so sorry. You have to.

1:15:22 > 1:15:23I'm sorry.

1:15:26 > 1:15:29What was it? Oh, wedding present. What can I get you?

1:15:29 > 1:15:32A present for a wedding you tried to stop?

1:15:32 > 1:15:34Well, this is about Zainab, innit?

1:15:40 > 1:15:43Is it that time already? I'll get my coat.

1:15:43 > 1:15:45OK.

1:15:51 > 1:15:54- You get what you're looking for? - Yes, thanks.

1:15:57 > 1:15:58What you doing?

1:15:58 > 1:16:00What's he doing?

1:16:00 > 1:16:04- I'm not entirely sure, but it's nice to look at. - I've come for the penguin.

1:16:04 > 1:16:07- The penguin?- Yep, the penguin.

1:16:07 > 1:16:11What, the penguin you gave me out of the kindness of your heart?

1:16:11 > 1:16:13Yep, that's the one. See ya.

1:16:15 > 1:16:17Tyler, is everything all right?

1:16:17 > 1:16:22- Yeah, fine. Why?- You're just a bit rude, to be honest.

1:16:22 > 1:16:24What do you expect from a Neanderthal?

1:16:32 > 1:16:34Interesting fact -

1:16:34 > 1:16:37Karachi is the economic AND cultural capital of Pakistan.

1:16:37 > 1:16:39Define "interesting".

1:16:50 > 1:16:53- Tea.- Oh, thanks.

1:16:57 > 1:17:00So strange, packing all my things.

1:17:00 > 1:17:03We should've helped you more. Sorry.

1:17:03 > 1:17:05No, no, I didn't mean it that way.

1:17:05 > 1:17:10Tamwar's useless at packing anyway. I just meant, you know...

1:17:10 > 1:17:13that all of us, we won't be here together, again.

1:17:15 > 1:17:18I'm being sentimental, but...

1:17:20 > 1:17:24..I've had some very good memories, you know, sitting round this table,

1:17:24 > 1:17:28- eating together... - We've had some good times here.

1:17:28 > 1:17:33It's a shame we won't be able to do it again once more before I go.

1:17:33 > 1:17:38We should do it - you and Dad, me and Tam, Kamil.

1:17:38 > 1:17:40You're right, Kamil should be here.

1:17:40 > 1:17:44Definitely. Let's ask Dad.

1:17:44 > 1:17:47Afia? You know what your father's like if he thinks

1:17:47 > 1:17:49he's being forced into something.

1:17:49 > 1:17:52I'm a genius at making him think my ideas are his.

1:17:52 > 1:17:55Years of practice. Trust me.

1:17:59 > 1:18:01- Thank you.- Ta.

1:18:05 > 1:18:07- What have you said to him? - To who?

1:18:07 > 1:18:11- Tyler.- What, in general, or...?

1:18:11 > 1:18:16- He knows we've been talking. He knows I called him a Neanderthal. - Maybe it was just a coincidence.

1:18:16 > 1:18:20How many times does Neanderthal come up in a conversation, Lauren?

1:18:20 > 1:18:22Well, if today's anything to go by, quite a lot!

1:18:22 > 1:18:26No, listen, I'm serious. What we talk about in private is between us.

1:18:26 > 1:18:31Oi, Whit. Do girls prefer blokes who look good in the buff, or, you know, someone who's kind and gentle...?

1:18:31 > 1:18:34OK, how'd you know that?

1:18:35 > 1:18:38- I haven't said anything, I swear. - I trusted you, Lauren.

1:18:38 > 1:18:41I don't understand. I haven't done anything!

1:18:42 > 1:18:46- Kat Moon?- Who's asking? James Bond?

1:18:46 > 1:18:50- Got called from a works thing. - Yeah? How about that, then?

1:18:50 > 1:18:53My name's Paul, I'm a community nurse. Your husband called.

1:18:57 > 1:19:00You're the most ladylike angel I've ever seen.

1:19:00 > 1:19:02Is Jean going to be OK?

1:19:02 > 1:19:04Yes, course she's going to be OK, darling.

1:19:04 > 1:19:07The doctors'll take care of her, everything'll be lovely,

1:19:07 > 1:19:10she'll be back and it'll be brilliant, all right?

1:19:10 > 1:19:12You and Kat always say that. You put on big smiles

1:19:12 > 1:19:14like Mrs Gallagher told us to do on stage.

1:19:14 > 1:19:17And you always pretend like everything's fine.

1:19:17 > 1:19:19- Do we?- You do it all the time.

1:19:19 > 1:19:23Your mum'll be back very soon, and when she is she'll be able to do your plaits every day,

1:19:23 > 1:19:27with sparkly ribbons and clips and everything.

1:19:27 > 1:19:29All right?

1:19:29 > 1:19:31Break a leg, yeah?

1:19:43 > 1:19:47Mo said she'd have a word with Santa, but Mum ain't coming home.

1:19:47 > 1:19:50My mum ain't coming either. Or Kat.

1:19:50 > 1:19:53But we'll still be brilliant.

1:19:53 > 1:19:54Sorry I'm late.

1:19:56 > 1:19:59- It's about to start, love, come on. - When are they on?

1:19:59 > 1:20:02After the tap-dancing shepherds, I think!

1:20:02 > 1:20:06- I'm going to need a drink. - Oh, I'm way ahead of you.

1:20:07 > 1:20:09Ah!

1:20:15 > 1:20:18Tyler, what are you doing?

1:20:20 > 1:20:21- It was me.- Huh?

1:20:23 > 1:20:27Well, it was him. But then it was me. It's a camera.

1:20:29 > 1:20:30You've been watching me?

1:20:30 > 1:20:35No! Well, yeah, sometimes. But I couldn't help it.

1:20:35 > 1:20:38You been spying on me? You're a creep. You're a pervy creep!

1:20:40 > 1:20:44Hate me all you want, but don't hate Lauren. She hasn't got nothing to do with this.

1:20:44 > 1:20:46Just get out, get out now.

1:20:52 > 1:20:55Are you from the council?

1:20:55 > 1:20:57Have you come to lock me up?

1:20:59 > 1:21:02Jean, it's Paul. He's a nurse.

1:21:02 > 1:21:06Oh. Aren't you well dressed! Isn't he well dressed?

1:21:06 > 1:21:10- Jean, have you been taking your medication?- Course she has.

1:21:10 > 1:21:15Yeah. I've not even been hiding them under my tongue or nothing. Look.

1:21:15 > 1:21:16She got in trouble with the council.

1:21:16 > 1:21:19They accused her of something she didn't do.

1:21:19 > 1:21:22- Anyone would be upset. - How long have you been upset, Jean?

1:21:22 > 1:21:24Upset's the wrong word.

1:21:24 > 1:21:27She's fine. My husband, he just overreacts.

1:21:27 > 1:21:30He said you've been talking about angels.

1:21:30 > 1:21:33Yeah. They only come when I've been good.

1:21:35 > 1:21:37She needs to be with me.

1:21:39 > 1:21:40Jean...

1:21:41 > 1:21:44- ..do you want to stay here? - Course she does.

1:21:44 > 1:21:46Jean?

1:21:52 > 1:21:55Make an appointment with your GP.

1:21:55 > 1:21:59Look, if you're worried at all then call that number, OK?

1:21:59 > 1:22:01Right.

1:22:01 > 1:22:03- Bye, Jean.- Bye.

1:22:09 > 1:22:12- Paul, is that it?- Hmm.

1:22:14 > 1:22:16If you're sure you can cope?

1:22:16 > 1:22:17Course I can, it's what I do.

1:22:21 > 1:22:24- AFIA:- We're not all going to be here together again in ages.

1:22:24 > 1:22:26YUSEF: We've got enough to deal with.

1:22:26 > 1:22:30- You're such a grump sometimes. - I'm not a grump.- You so are.

1:22:30 > 1:22:33Look, it'll just be us four and Kamil having tea.

1:22:33 > 1:22:36Please Dad, look, do it for me.

1:22:37 > 1:22:40OK, if it'll stop you moaning.

1:22:40 > 1:22:42And I'll even pick up Kamil from Bushra's.

1:22:42 > 1:22:44No. No, I'll do that.

1:22:44 > 1:22:48Thanks, Dad. Mum's going to be really pleased.

1:22:53 > 1:22:57# Ding dong merrily on...

1:22:59 > 1:23:01# Ding dong...

1:23:03 > 1:23:09# Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream... #

1:23:13 > 1:23:17Did you know that every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings?

1:23:19 > 1:23:21Where is my angel?

1:23:26 > 1:23:31APPLAUSE

1:23:31 > 1:23:33ALL: Wahey!

1:23:37 > 1:23:42# Are you hanging up the stocking on the wall?

1:23:45 > 1:23:50# It's the time that every Santa has his ball... #

1:23:55 > 1:23:58Come on, message, message, message...

1:24:00 > 1:24:01PHONE BEEPS

1:24:04 > 1:24:08- Well?- She's got Tam's phone. 3:30, Kamil'll be there. That's my chance.

1:24:08 > 1:24:11That's my chance to get him out of there.

1:24:13 > 1:24:15# Does your Granny always tell you

1:24:15 > 1:24:18# That the old songs are the best?

1:24:18 > 1:24:25# And she's up rock'n'rolling with the rest

1:24:26 > 1:24:30# So here it is, Merry Christmas

1:24:30 > 1:24:33# Everybody's having fun... #

1:24:34 > 1:24:36IT'S CHRISTMASSSSS!

1:24:36 > 1:24:38- Mum!- Tiff!

1:24:45 > 1:24:47Thank you, Santa!

1:25:00 > 1:25:01They're here.

1:25:03 > 1:25:06- Oh. Yeah, they're back. - They're here?- Yeah.

1:25:09 > 1:25:11Kamil, baba.

1:25:11 > 1:25:15He had a temperature. It was best to leave him with Bushra.

1:25:16 > 1:25:18It's nothing serious, is it?

1:25:18 > 1:25:19Just a cold.

1:25:19 > 1:25:22Thought you could get a head-start on the packing.

1:25:26 > 1:25:28Mum...

1:25:28 > 1:25:29it's just a cold.

1:25:34 > 1:25:37- Did you have your own telly in your cell? - Here we are again. Nothing changes.

1:25:37 > 1:25:41- Same old.- Oi, less of the same old. They're new curtains, they are!

1:25:41 > 1:25:44- You could do with a bit of steak on that eye.- I thought they was keeping you in.

1:25:44 > 1:25:47Me cellmate was winding me up. They can't keep you in for fighting.

1:25:47 > 1:25:50- Who was you fighting anyway? - Oh, Mum, don't start...

1:25:50 > 1:25:52My little girl's back!

1:25:52 > 1:25:53THEY LAUGH

1:25:53 > 1:25:56Oh, look at him. Ain't he tall? Ain't you tall?

1:25:56 > 1:25:59Even my little boy's got big, ain't ya, eh?

1:25:59 > 1:26:00Oh, he'll be fine.

1:26:01 > 1:26:04- I knew you'd come back. I always knew you'd come back.- No, you never!

1:26:04 > 1:26:07You was moping about with a face on you.

1:26:07 > 1:26:08Oi!

1:26:08 > 1:26:11Was there riots? Did you get up on the roof and throw bog roll?

1:26:11 > 1:26:15He's over there, he's over there. Just behave yourself, all right? Promise me.

1:26:15 > 1:26:17And you won't say anything embarrassing.

1:26:17 > 1:26:19ME? Would I embarrass you, though?

1:26:21 > 1:26:22- Hello...- Hey, how you doing? Really nice to...

1:26:22 > 1:26:24Oh! OK! Hugging already!

1:26:24 > 1:26:26OK, I'm just going to go with it, you know.

1:26:26 > 1:26:29Can I just say that you are looking pengalicious, Miss!

1:26:29 > 1:26:31- Penga-what?- Nice.- Yeah.- Oh, good.

1:26:31 > 1:26:34Well, if you break her heart, I'll break your family jewels,

1:26:34 > 1:26:36you get me, Fatboy?

1:26:36 > 1:26:39All right, easy, I'm the good one. Did you tell her I was the...

1:26:39 > 1:26:40- Sorry.- It's all right, babe.

1:26:40 > 1:26:45- You want a drink?- Yeah, I'll have a G&T, and a vodka and orange,

1:26:45 > 1:26:49and one of them cocktails with the rude names, with the little umbrellas?

1:26:49 > 1:26:52Prawn cocktail with pink sauce and scratchings - hairier the better.

1:26:52 > 1:26:55Hey, Ricky, this one's on me, all right.

1:26:55 > 1:26:58No, sort it out. Whatever Queen B wants she can have.

1:26:58 > 1:27:00Oh, my little love machine...

1:27:00 > 1:27:04Look, er, about last time, you know, when I come to see you...?

1:27:04 > 1:27:08- Pat don't look so good. Is it the money?- She's fine.

1:27:08 > 1:27:12- Look, about the argument... - Oh, Ricky, just forget it, yeah? I mean it.

1:27:12 > 1:27:15Fresh start, no more arguing, no more flying off the handle.

1:27:15 > 1:27:18Let me, you and the kids have a lovely Christmas, yeah?

1:27:18 > 1:27:20Come on, tell me, what have I missed?

1:27:23 > 1:27:24OK, now!

1:27:26 > 1:27:28Ah, what does that say?

1:27:28 > 1:27:31That we're chavs? Chavs with a massive electricity bill?

1:27:31 > 1:27:34No. It says "stuff your hate-mail".

1:27:34 > 1:27:38- It's like in the olden days when they used to stick their heads on spikes.- Pikes.

1:27:38 > 1:27:44- Whatever. Still says don't mess with us.- Bit like your party, cos that was a great idea, weren't it?

1:27:46 > 1:27:49That's nice, innit? Yeah, very white trash.

1:27:50 > 1:27:53- How's your motor, Jack? - Just leave it.

1:27:57 > 1:27:59I still reckon I'd rather have a head on a pike.

1:27:59 > 1:28:00Or spike.

1:28:04 > 1:28:07BUTTONS BEEP

1:28:07 > 1:28:10Yes, that's fine, I'll speak to you later.

1:28:13 > 1:28:16- He doesn't really have a cold, does he?- You railroaded me.

1:28:17 > 1:28:20- What?- You wanted to see Kamil. You used Afia to manipulate me.

1:28:20 > 1:28:23- No, it wasn't like that... - You'll see him when I decide.

1:28:23 > 1:28:26RADIO PLAYS IN THE BACKGROUND

1:28:26 > 1:28:28I have to think of the bigger picture, Zainab.

1:28:28 > 1:28:31I have to do what's best for all of us. You understand, don't you?

1:28:31 > 1:28:33CAR ALARM GOES OFF OUTSIDE

1:28:33 > 1:28:35I think that's mine.

1:28:37 > 1:28:40CAR ALARM CONTINUES

1:28:40 > 1:28:42ZAINAB DIALS

1:28:44 > 1:28:47You have to go, you have to go! He hasn't brought Kamil!

1:28:47 > 1:28:50- What do you mean...? - I don't know where he is! - Two teeny, tiny sandwiches...

1:28:50 > 1:28:52Come here!

1:28:52 > 1:28:54I swear you've got some kind of parasite.

1:28:54 > 1:28:56Parasite! Nice, thanks. (Parasite...)

1:28:56 > 1:29:00CAR ALARM CONTINUES OUTSIDE

1:29:00 > 1:29:02- (He has to let you see him sometime.)- (I don't know...)

1:29:02 > 1:29:07- Zainab, he HAS to, and when he does you tell me, OK? You tell me straight away.- (OK.)

1:29:07 > 1:29:09Does Mum still seem really strung out to you?

1:29:10 > 1:29:13Course she is. She's just about to move to a whole new country.

1:29:13 > 1:29:15Forever.

1:29:15 > 1:29:18I don't know. I just thought telling Dad to back off might help.

1:29:18 > 1:29:21It has. It has helped. He's not been round here, has he?

1:29:23 > 1:29:26- Am I overreacting? - You're overreacting.

1:29:28 > 1:29:32CAR ALARM CONTINUES

1:29:32 > 1:29:35I don't know how much more of this I can take.

1:29:35 > 1:29:37CAR ALARM STOPS

1:29:37 > 1:29:39- (Go, go, go!) - FRONT DOOR SLAMS SHUT

1:29:40 > 1:29:42Wing mirror's scraped.

1:30:45 > 1:30:46See?

1:30:51 > 1:30:55- Why didn't you tell me that? - Well...must have slipped me mind.

1:30:55 > 1:30:59What else has slipped your mind? You been keeping things from me?

1:30:59 > 1:31:02Oh, look! He's a hand-holder!

1:31:03 > 1:31:06Hand-holders are always keepers.

1:31:06 > 1:31:08- My Roy was a hand-holder...- Aw!

1:31:09 > 1:31:12- Better go and see to Morgan.- Yeah.

1:32:06 > 1:32:11I've let Shenice stay over at Tiff's tonight. I thought it was best, considering, you know...

1:32:11 > 1:32:15I wasn't going to let them just cart her off. It's better this way.

1:32:15 > 1:32:18- Oh, really? Is that right? What, for you or for her?- For her.

1:32:18 > 1:32:20She needs us around.

1:32:20 > 1:32:22- Can I see Shenice?- No.

1:32:23 > 1:32:25Have I upset her.

1:32:27 > 1:32:29Have I been bad?

1:32:30 > 1:32:33Is it because of my winnings?

1:32:33 > 1:32:36As they say that money is the root of all evil, don't they?

1:32:36 > 1:32:39- That's what they say.- That makes it easier, don't it, Jean?

1:32:39 > 1:32:42- What's that mean...? - Nothing. No, forget I even said it.

1:32:42 > 1:32:45- So can I see Shenice...? - Can you please give us a second!

1:32:45 > 1:32:48- Oi! Don't you talk to her like that! - Oh, makes it...- What did you mean?!

1:32:48 > 1:32:52- It just makes it easier with Jean around, eh?! - What are you talking about?!

1:32:52 > 1:32:56- I'm talking about us! - You can talk! You spend more time on Shenice than anyone else!

1:32:56 > 1:33:01- At least one of us is, eh, Kat? You know what she said to me this morning?- No! What?- I'll tell you.

1:33:01 > 1:33:05She said, "What is it with you and Kat putting on big fake smiles, pretending everything's OK?"

1:33:05 > 1:33:09Who are we fooling when we can't even fool an eight-year-old, eh?!

1:33:09 > 1:33:11- I know what this is really about. - Oh, yeah?

1:33:11 > 1:33:13It's about him, innit, eh?

1:33:13 > 1:33:15It's eating you alive.

1:33:15 > 1:33:18I've said it now. It's out there. D'you feel better now?!

1:33:22 > 1:33:25You know how to stab a bloke in the heart, don't you, Kat?

1:33:25 > 1:33:28You're the one that said forget about it! You said it, not me!

1:33:29 > 1:33:34Yeah, all right, I can't forget. I certainly can't forgive...

1:33:35 > 1:33:37Have I upset you, Alfie?

1:33:37 > 1:33:40No. No, no, no, you...

1:33:41 > 1:33:45- ..you haven't upset me, Jean.- I can cope with this.- Good. You do that.
