0:00:47 > 0:00:49# Hey, little sister

0:00:49 > 0:00:52# What have you done?

0:00:54 > 0:00:56# Hey, little sister Who's the only one... #

0:00:56 > 0:00:58Oi, oi.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01MUFFLED MUSIC CONTINUES

0:01:07 > 0:01:10# It's a nice day for a white wedding... #

0:01:12 > 0:01:15What on earth are you doing?

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Practising for the wedding. Be careful of my record.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21- You're not playing that at the wedding.- Yeah. Billy Idol. Legend.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24Ian, I'm not so sure, you know. It's meant to be a first dance.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26I don't even think I'd know how to dance to that.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28Not without a pole.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31- That's enough.- And why is there a for sale sign outside the house?

0:01:31 > 0:01:34Because the house is for sale? I did tell you.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37- I didn't think you meant it. - Well, now you know I do, OK?

0:01:37 > 0:01:40The Registry Office had a cancellation for Friday.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43The estate agent's lining up viewings. Things are coming together.

0:01:43 > 0:01:47I'm in the middle of my exams. This is one of the most important times of my life.

0:01:47 > 0:01:48Why are you doing this to me?!

0:01:48 > 0:01:51Lucy, it's not all about you, OK?

0:01:51 > 0:01:56It's about all of us. Me and Mandy'll be married Friday.

0:01:56 > 0:01:58The estate agent will have sold the house,

0:01:58 > 0:02:01we'll ALL be moving onto bigger and better things. OK?

0:02:01 > 0:02:03I don't understand. What is the rush?

0:02:03 > 0:02:07- What is so urgent that you have to jeopardise my future? - There is no rush. OK?

0:02:07 > 0:02:12There is no panic. Tell you what, it is like the great man said, OK?

0:02:12 > 0:02:14Nice day to start again.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19- I was not gawping, all right? - If it's being flaunted...

0:02:19 > 0:02:21It's not being flaunted, is it?

0:02:21 > 0:02:23- HE SIGHS - While the Kat's away...

0:02:23 > 0:02:26Michael, Kat's not away, is she?

0:02:26 > 0:02:29She's not living it large in Marbella, tanning herself day after day, is she?

0:02:29 > 0:02:32She's looking after her dad. Her sick dad.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35- All right.- And Tommy.

0:02:35 > 0:02:39- Listen to me. Could be worse, couldn't it?- It's worse.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Whoa, whoa, whoa. Where's the fire?

0:02:41 > 0:02:44Up Mo's backside if she's not careful. She finished all the milk.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47- Crying over spilt milk, eh? - Do I look like I'm crying? I'm going to get more.

0:02:47 > 0:02:51Babe, listen. Don't worry about it. Take some from the pub's store.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54Can't have a young girl going hungry, can we?

0:02:55 > 0:02:57- Sorry, I've got it. - No, no, I'll get it.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59HE CHUCKLES

0:03:03 > 0:03:05Thanks.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11- Alfie?- Jean, you've got a habit of sneaking up on people, darling.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13I didn't mean to sneak. This came for you.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15Jean, what you doing, sweetheart?

0:03:15 > 0:03:18This is my personal credit card statement.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21I know I opened it by mistake. I'm so sorry.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23You've missed a payment, Alfie.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25Yeah, don't worry about it. I'll take care of it.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28You shouldn't miss payments, Alfie. The interest...

0:03:28 > 0:03:30It was either this or the weekly shop. All right?

0:03:30 > 0:03:32- Does Kat know?- Kat's not here!

0:03:32 > 0:03:35I'll take care of it. It'll be fine.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44I was 13 when this came out in 1982.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47D'you know what, I didn't just like Billy Idol, right?

0:03:47 > 0:03:50I wanted to be Billy Idol.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52There was this girl at school, Sally Bateman.

0:03:52 > 0:03:56Thinking about it, she looked a bit like your mum.

0:03:56 > 0:03:59- I didn't half have the hots for her...- Dad.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02I always reckoned I was going to marry Sally Bateman,

0:04:02 > 0:04:07and Billy Idol was going to be play White Wedding at our wedding.

0:04:07 > 0:04:09- Why are you telling me this?- Dunno.

0:04:09 > 0:04:15Everything just seemed simpler back then. Cooler.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18Is that what you want? To be cool?

0:04:18 > 0:04:20No.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22Nah, not any more.

0:04:22 > 0:04:24What do you want, then?

0:04:25 > 0:04:28I want to be happy.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30I want to be safe.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33You know, running away isn't going to make you happy.

0:04:34 > 0:04:36Who says I'm running away?

0:04:36 > 0:04:39The for sale sign. This marriage.

0:04:39 > 0:04:43Leaving home, your business, friends and family.

0:04:43 > 0:04:47The business will still be here and my family's coming with me, OK?

0:04:47 > 0:04:50Yeah? What about Ben? Your brother. Remember?

0:04:50 > 0:04:52What about Ben? He's made his choices, all right?

0:04:52 > 0:04:54What is that supposed to mean?

0:04:54 > 0:04:57Ben's a Mitchell, OK? He's not part of this family. He's...

0:04:59 > 0:05:02We're leaving. He's staying. OK?

0:05:02 > 0:05:04And that's all there is to it.

0:05:04 > 0:05:08Look, I know this all happened a bit quick but...

0:05:08 > 0:05:11And I know I've been... I haven't been myself lately.

0:05:11 > 0:05:15I've been getting really stressed. And that needs to stop.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18And Friday, it will. OK? You'll understand.

0:05:18 > 0:05:20I've got my Business Studies exam.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26Well, it was supposed to be breakfast in bed

0:05:26 > 0:05:29but seeing as you're up, you've got eggs, bacon, toast...

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Who stole my beans?! >

0:05:33 > 0:05:37- Which one of you tea-leaves...? - All right, look. It wasn't her. It was me.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40How was I supposed to know they was your beans?

0:05:40 > 0:05:41You label your beans?

0:05:41 > 0:05:44- I label all my foodstuffs.- Why?

0:05:44 > 0:05:46Because when I was in the....

0:05:46 > 0:05:48To stop scavengers like you nicking 'em.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51- That's mine! - Not according to the tin.

0:05:51 > 0:05:55OK, the beans are yours. The rest's ours, yeah?

0:06:00 > 0:06:03- You happy now?- Yeah.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07You're not going to let him get away with that, are you?

0:06:09 > 0:06:13- He said what?- That you made your own choices. That you're a Mitchell.

0:06:13 > 0:06:14I don't know. He was acting really weird.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17Ian's never really played with a full deck, has he?

0:06:17 > 0:06:20No, I mean manic. Bringing the wedding forward,

0:06:20 > 0:06:22- selling the house.- What? Why?

0:06:22 > 0:06:25He said we're moving away.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27Said he's got no friends or family left here.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30I've never seen him like this. Mandy's wound him up so tight,

0:06:30 > 0:06:32he's all over the place, arranging the wedding.

0:06:32 > 0:06:36- You've got to do something. Talk some sense into him.- Me?

0:06:36 > 0:06:39Yeah, you're his brother! In fact, you're his best man, aren't you?

0:06:39 > 0:06:43Yeah, well, I don't think so. I dunno. Not any more, anyway.

0:06:43 > 0:06:47Why not? What is going on between you two?

0:06:47 > 0:06:48You said it yourself.

0:06:48 > 0:06:51Mandy's got him not knowing whether he's coming or going.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54But I'll have a word with him.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57- Let him know what a big mistake he's making.- Thank you.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01What are you going to do?

0:07:01 > 0:07:03Whatever it takes.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06People find out that Ian's leaving, they'll start asking questions.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08We can't have people asking questions, can we?

0:07:09 > 0:07:11It's just a missed payment. Alfie'll sort it.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15It's not just that though.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17We've missed a few bills.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21He didn't even have enough money for the weekly shop.

0:07:22 > 0:07:26Will there be some money coming through from my investment?

0:07:26 > 0:07:29No, no. That's a long term thing, Jean. You need to...

0:07:29 > 0:07:31That's a 'big picture' type deal, know what I mean?

0:07:31 > 0:07:34I don't care about big pictures, I just want to help.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37He's just missed a few bills. It's not the Greek national debt.

0:07:37 > 0:07:41Slight overreaction. Why don't you just chuck in for the weekly shop?

0:07:41 > 0:07:44Well, I would but all my money's in the investment.

0:07:46 > 0:07:50Well, just have to get another job then.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52- Tide us over temporarily. - That's a good idea.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00And now there's a for sale sign out front.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03Wonder what he's planning to do with the caff.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06I should probably call Jane.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09It's him, isn't it?

0:08:09 > 0:08:12- Who is who? - The man you're mooning over.

0:08:12 > 0:08:14- I'm not mooning over anyone. - Yeah, right.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17So, what do you say to a nice night in?

0:08:17 > 0:08:18What, as opposed to a murder scene?

0:08:18 > 0:08:21Oh, how many times can I say I'm sorry?

0:08:21 > 0:08:23I've got Sasha tonight.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26I was thinking about the three of us. We could watch a couple of DVDs.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28What, like a snuff movie, yeah?

0:08:28 > 0:08:32That depends. Do they find Nemo in a shallow grave?

0:08:33 > 0:08:35Oh, come on, Ray. I'm trying here.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37You'll have to try harder than DVDs on a school night.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41Do you reckon a guy and girl can ever be just friends?

0:08:41 > 0:08:44- Hello, Sally, meet Harry. - I'm being serious.

0:08:44 > 0:08:49Yes, guys can be friends with girls. It's just really hard.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51Especially if one person isn't trying as much as the other.

0:08:51 > 0:08:53I'm trying.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56I saw you this morning, in your nightie.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59Oh, come on, Rox. It's not fair.

0:08:59 > 0:09:04Not to you and not to him. Someone's going to get hurt.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09Wait, he put his name on a can of beans?!

0:09:09 > 0:09:13Not even just his beans. The weirdo labels everything. I checked.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15Please tell me my brother defended your honour?

0:09:15 > 0:09:18My honour? He didn't even defend the beans!

0:09:18 > 0:09:22What was I supposed to do? Look, it was the bloke's beans. He's got a point.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24Tyler's labelling his food as well.

0:09:24 > 0:09:27SHE CLUCKS LIKE A CHICKEN

0:09:27 > 0:09:31I'm not a chicken, all right. I'm just waiting for the right time.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Lay a few ground rules, set him straight.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36Well, listen, I'm not having him taking over that house.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38He'll be labelling that TV next.

0:09:38 > 0:09:39SHE CONTINUES CLUCKING

0:09:39 > 0:09:41I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

0:09:41 > 0:09:4312.30, Town Hall. That's it.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46Brilliant. I'll see you then. Bye.

0:09:46 > 0:09:47That's the photographer booked!

0:09:50 > 0:09:53You're not still worried about Lucy, are you?

0:09:54 > 0:09:58- Maybe she's got a point. - What, about Billy Idol?- No.

0:09:58 > 0:10:01About the wedding and moving.

0:10:01 > 0:10:04I mean, Ian, it's all happening so fast.

0:10:06 > 0:10:07Are you running away?

0:10:11 > 0:10:13What if I am, OK?

0:10:13 > 0:10:15It's a big wide world out there and...

0:10:17 > 0:10:19..maybe I've outgrown this place.

0:10:19 > 0:10:23All the people I cared about, they're long gone.

0:10:23 > 0:10:27There's nothing left for me here. Nothing but ghosts.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29So, yeah, if I am running away...

0:10:30 > 0:10:32..perhaps we're running away to a better place.

0:10:32 > 0:10:37Once we're married, OK, everything will be fine.

0:10:38 > 0:10:40Ian, I haven't even got a dress.

0:10:40 > 0:10:44Tell you what, how about you take yourself into town,

0:10:44 > 0:10:48go get yourself the sort of dress you've always dreamed of?

0:10:48 > 0:10:50Might come to a little bit more than that, hun.

0:10:51 > 0:10:55Yeah, it will, won't it? OK, tell you what, take this one.

0:10:55 > 0:10:58You can remember the PIN, can't you? Usual one.

0:10:58 > 0:10:59OK.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04- See you.- Bye.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13# It's a nice day for a white wedding... #

0:11:13 > 0:11:14You forgot something, love?

0:11:17 > 0:11:20(ALFIE) Yeah, I know. What colour is it?

0:11:20 > 0:11:22No, no, no. That's not what I said.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24You're not listening, that's not what I...

0:11:25 > 0:11:28I'm not being useless, all right?

0:11:28 > 0:11:30I just want to make a decision with you.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32HE SIGHS

0:11:32 > 0:11:33No, I know I'm not there.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36But at the same time, you're not here, are you?

0:11:37 > 0:11:40No, I'm not saying it's your fault. It's no-one's fault.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43It's just a fact, that's all. Kat?

0:11:43 > 0:11:46Kat? Kat?

0:11:47 > 0:11:49Sorry.

0:11:50 > 0:11:54Mo said you were here. I didn't mean to...

0:11:54 > 0:11:56You know what, it's a bad time, I'll go.

0:11:58 > 0:12:00Oi! You all right?

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Yeah. I'm good. Never been better.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09Ian, calm down, will you? I just want to talk to you.

0:12:09 > 0:12:11Give me a call or send me a text or something.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14- Just stay away from me. - I was asked to come by Lucy.- What?!

0:12:14 > 0:12:17She thinks you're acting weird, like you've got something to hide.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19I do. We all do, don't we?

0:12:19 > 0:12:21- Which is why it's important to act normal.- Normal?

0:12:21 > 0:12:23That's a laugh. What is normal about this?

0:12:23 > 0:12:27Not pulling the plug on your life, on Lucy's. What are you thinking?

0:12:27 > 0:12:30I was thinking about getting her as far away from here as possible.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32I'd have thought that's what you wanted.

0:12:34 > 0:12:35Oh, no. You...

0:12:35 > 0:12:38You want me here so you can keep me under control, don't you?

0:12:38 > 0:12:43Well, someone's got to, ain't they? Eh? Go back to your job.

0:12:43 > 0:12:47Earn money. Take care of your family. And act normal.

0:12:47 > 0:12:50Now, we had a deal, remember?

0:12:50 > 0:12:52We don't want anyone asking any questions.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54Cos you're in this as deep as anyone else.

0:13:05 > 0:13:10Oh. £1,000. Cash. Interest compounded daily.

0:13:10 > 0:13:14What was it you said on Saturday? Short term bridging loan?

0:13:14 > 0:13:16A creditor might be a little bit nervous to see this.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18Janine, you'll get your money, one way or another.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21OK, well, I like the sound of "another."

0:13:27 > 0:13:28Duvet covers.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31- What?- Exactly. That's what me and Kat were arguing about.

0:13:31 > 0:13:36Can you believe it? Duvet covers for Tommy. Ben 10 or In The Night Garden.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38These are very important decisions, Alfie.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40Tell me about it. You know, big decision to make.

0:13:40 > 0:13:43THEY LAUGH

0:13:43 > 0:13:46Not sure Kat sees it like that though.

0:13:48 > 0:13:50You miss her, don't you?

0:13:53 > 0:13:56You should go to them.

0:13:56 > 0:14:00What, just pack up and go? I've got responsibilities.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03At least that's what I keep telling myself.

0:14:03 > 0:14:08Funny, you know, at times like this, the Slaters pull together as a family.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13I'll never be a Slater. Not really.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17But, you know, I do understand it.

0:14:17 > 0:14:21It's just that, you know, at times like this,

0:14:21 > 0:14:24I get lonely, miss my family, you know?

0:14:24 > 0:14:25Yeah, I know.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30PHONE RINGS

0:14:30 > 0:14:33It's only Ian. I'll talk to him later.

0:14:33 > 0:14:34SHE CLEARS THROAT

0:14:34 > 0:14:36So what did you want?

0:14:39 > 0:14:40I'm going to move out.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43- What?- I know you said it's OK, I know you said it's OK but...

0:14:44 > 0:14:47It's getting awkward with Mo and Jean and everything.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50No, you don't have to do that, darling. Not on their account.

0:14:50 > 0:14:54- All right, Alfie?- Hey, you all right? All right, girls?- Hiya.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00Right. I should go.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Hey, listen. No, Rox.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04How about tonight me and you go and get something to eat?

0:15:04 > 0:15:08Maybe I dunno, grab a curry or something. Be lonely together, eh?

0:15:09 > 0:15:13- Yeah, I'd really like that. - Yeah, me too.

0:15:13 > 0:15:17- Catch you later then, yeah?- Bye. - See you later. Take care.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19All right, Mush? Where's Tyler?

0:15:20 > 0:15:23Gone to see a man about a label.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25What I'm trying to say is that maybe for the good of the house,

0:15:25 > 0:15:28we should all just try and muck in together. Yeah?

0:15:28 > 0:15:32I mean, this whole labelling thing, it's a bit weird, innit?

0:15:34 > 0:15:39Tell me, Tyler, are you aware of the term Top Dog?

0:15:39 > 0:15:42- No.- Then let me enlighten you.

0:15:43 > 0:15:47It's a prison term. It's how the hierarchy is set.

0:15:47 > 0:15:51Who sleeps where. Who does what to whom. That sort of thing.

0:15:51 > 0:15:56Now, it's called Top Dog because that's how it works in nature,

0:15:56 > 0:16:00amongst wolves and such. It's very important to have structure.

0:16:00 > 0:16:04To know who's boss. Otherwise, it's just chaos.

0:16:04 > 0:16:09It's nothing personal, but it's how the pack leader, that's me,

0:16:09 > 0:16:13keeps the bitch, that's you, in check.

0:16:13 > 0:16:18Now I choose to mark my hierarchy by labelling my foodstuffs.

0:16:19 > 0:16:22But there are other ways I can mark my territory.

0:16:25 > 0:16:26We'll keep the labels, eh?

0:16:26 > 0:16:30Yeah. Let's keep the labels, mate.

0:16:35 > 0:16:39You looking for work? Only Janine could do with another cleaner.

0:16:39 > 0:16:40Janine?

0:16:40 > 0:16:45Yeah. At Butcher's Joints. I'm Executive Director of Operations.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49I don't think so, Billy. Me and that woman hardly get on.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51Yeah, you and most people round here.

0:16:51 > 0:16:54We've all had run-ins with her, including myself.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57But Michael, he'll put in a good word for you. Won't you, Michael?

0:16:57 > 0:17:00I've got plenty of options.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02Yeah, Alfie? Listen, do me a favour.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05Give us a call about the wedding as soon as possible. Bye.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09I know you and her have got history.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11But I also know how hard it is out there at the moment.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14I'd be your line manager, Jean. Just let me do all the talking

0:17:14 > 0:17:17and hopefully you won't deal with her at all.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19Come on, Jean. I'm desperate here.

0:17:27 > 0:17:31Let me guess, having put the wedding off, Dad decided to soften the blow?

0:17:31 > 0:17:36Put the wedding off? I've just bought the dress!

0:17:36 > 0:17:40By the way, your dad wants us to meet him tonight in the caff.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42Some sort of family summit.

0:17:42 > 0:17:44DOOR SLAMS

0:17:44 > 0:17:47I don't get it. What does he mean by marking his territory?

0:17:47 > 0:17:49Don't dwell on it, bruv.

0:17:49 > 0:17:52What can we do? I don't want to go back there in his "territory". I won't do it.

0:17:54 > 0:17:56We'll make our own territory.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01You're leaving? Why?

0:18:01 > 0:18:05Why do you think? Mandy.

0:18:05 > 0:18:07I hate her.

0:18:07 > 0:18:09I hate her hair. I hate her nose.

0:18:09 > 0:18:13I hate her lopsided, cutesy, little smile.

0:18:13 > 0:18:17- I just want to scratch her eyes out. - Hey, whoa!

0:18:17 > 0:18:18I mean, I don't get it.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21I know you don't want to leave. cos that's rubbish, innit?

0:18:21 > 0:18:23Why does Mandy get to you so much?

0:18:23 > 0:18:27Do you think she's trying to take your mum's place or something?

0:18:27 > 0:18:30Are you kidding? No-one can replace my mum.

0:18:30 > 0:18:31My dad's tried hard enough.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34Not even my mum could replace my mum. He just doesn't love her. OK?

0:18:34 > 0:18:37- He can't.- Why?

0:18:37 > 0:18:38Cos I'm not going to let him.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42Karaoke? >

0:18:42 > 0:18:44- Yuck.- Wendy houses?

0:18:44 > 0:18:47- She's 13, not three. - You're not helping.

0:18:47 > 0:18:51Look, I don't want to do anything. And I can't. I've got to practise.

0:18:51 > 0:18:53- What for?- Dance recital.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56- You like dancing?- I love it.

0:18:56 > 0:18:58- She's really good at it. - Why didn't you say so?

0:18:58 > 0:19:04Listen, you're looking at the former Under-17s National Bogling champion.

0:19:04 > 0:19:08Hey, you want to nail that dance recital, you are in the right place.

0:19:08 > 0:19:12Put some music on, Mr DJ. Let's get this party started!

0:19:12 > 0:19:14Yeah!

0:19:15 > 0:19:17You're going to do it, then?

0:19:17 > 0:19:20Yep. I've got an interview with Billy tomorrow.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23You despise Janine, with good reason.

0:19:24 > 0:19:28I went to the Job Centre today. It was full.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Young people.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34Old people.

0:19:34 > 0:19:37Mums. Dads.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41Sick. Healthy.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44Disabled.

0:19:46 > 0:19:49And the girl behind the counter, she was doing her best

0:19:49 > 0:19:52but you could see in her eyes that...

0:19:54 > 0:19:57You don't have to respect your employer.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01- But you have to respect yourself. - Hm.

0:20:03 > 0:20:07Anyway, when my investment comes through it will give me

0:20:07 > 0:20:11the greatest of joys to tell Janine where she can shove her job.

0:20:15 > 0:20:16You look nice, babe.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19Thank you. Do you think I should maybe dress down a bit?

0:20:19 > 0:20:22Depends on what you're trying to achieve.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25Rox, he doesn't love you, all right? He's told you that.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28What he's told me and what he means are two very different things.

0:20:28 > 0:20:32OK? I offered to move out and he asked me to stay.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35There's something there, Christian, I know it.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41- Ooh!- All right, Jean? - Don't you look nice?

0:20:41 > 0:20:44- Alfie, I've...- No. Me first.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47Jean, I want to apologise for the way I spoke to you this morning.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49It was bang out of order. I've just...

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Just got a lot on my mind at the moment, you know.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53I know. That's why I'm getting another job

0:20:53 > 0:20:55to help with the housekeeping.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58- No, no, sweetheart. You don't have to do that.- Yes, I do.

0:21:00 > 0:21:04You know, Jean, you have got one big heart, you have.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06- So do you.- See you later.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08Alfie?

0:21:08 > 0:21:12Kat misses you terribly, you know.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15I know you think us Slaters are a tight bunch

0:21:15 > 0:21:20but she's there for them. What she needs is you.

0:21:32 > 0:21:34Are you ready to order?

0:21:35 > 0:21:38I think I'm going to leave it another five minutes.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44CARTOON PLAYS

0:21:50 > 0:21:55'..3% in the last 13 weeks. Total sales increased 5%.

0:21:55 > 0:21:59'Retail like-for-like sales at its North American unit...

0:21:59 > 0:22:02It's interesting, Gillian, talking about retailers expanding abroad...'

0:22:20 > 0:22:23You'll never guess who I had a visit from. Uncle Phil!

0:22:23 > 0:22:25There's a surprise.

0:22:25 > 0:22:29I went to see Ben. I was upset and Phil offered to help.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33Both me and Phil, right, when we talked about it this morning,

0:22:33 > 0:22:36want what's best for our families.

0:22:36 > 0:22:38Selling the house, our family home, is that what's best?

0:22:38 > 0:22:42Leaving your businesses and dragging your kids away from their friends

0:22:42 > 0:22:44- is what's best? - Lucy, just calm down.

0:22:44 > 0:22:48After everything we've been through, after what you've built here,

0:22:48 > 0:22:51you're just going to throw it away to marry her?

0:22:51 > 0:22:54You don't love her. He doesn't love you.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56And how do you know that?

0:22:56 > 0:22:57Because she's not Mum!

0:22:57 > 0:23:01- What's this got to do with your mum? - It's always got to do with Mum.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04Even that girl you were blabbering on about...

0:23:04 > 0:23:06Sally?

0:23:06 > 0:23:08Sally Bateman. She looked like Mum. No surprise.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11Everyone you've ever loved kind of looked like Mum.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14She's the closest of the lot.

0:23:14 > 0:23:16I do not look like Cindy Beale.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19No, you're right. You're just a pale imitation.

0:23:19 > 0:23:21- Lucy, that's enough, all right? - It's not your fault, Mandy.

0:23:21 > 0:23:25No-one will ever measure up. But you don't want to, do you?

0:23:25 > 0:23:28- You're waiting for the right moment to run away.- Oh, shut up!

0:23:28 > 0:23:32You'll bleed Dad dry until there's nothing left then move on to the next.

0:23:32 > 0:23:35The pathetic thing is you pretend that you can change.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38- At least my mum was honest. - You know what...

0:23:38 > 0:23:41- Stay there.- No.- Stay there. Bobby, wait by the door, please.

0:23:42 > 0:23:44Now.

0:23:45 > 0:23:48Come here. I know what you're playing at.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51I'm trying to help you. I'm trying to help us.

0:23:51 > 0:23:55You know what, you are so like your mum sometimes, it scares me.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59In a good way?

0:23:59 > 0:24:04Your mum was a lying, cheating, murderous slapper

0:24:04 > 0:24:07who would do whatever it took to get her own way.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Is that "in a good way"?

0:24:10 > 0:24:11Now, you take Bobby home

0:24:11 > 0:24:14and don't you ever pull a stunt like that again.

0:24:22 > 0:24:23Mo, you seen Alfie?

0:24:23 > 0:24:26- Not since he left.- Left?

0:24:26 > 0:24:30He's gone to see Kat and Tommy, and about time too.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32Ah, that reminds me.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36He left you this.

0:24:49 > 0:24:53OK, Sasha! Dance recital take one!

0:24:53 > 0:24:55MUSIC: "Poker Face" by Lady Gaga

0:24:55 > 0:24:57Good, ain't she?

0:24:57 > 0:25:00She's...original.

0:25:02 > 0:25:03TUMBLING AND CRASHING

0:25:03 > 0:25:06It's OK. I'm not hurt!

0:25:06 > 0:25:09What you doing awake, young lady, huh?

0:25:28 > 0:25:30What is it, love?

0:25:33 > 0:25:40Do you know, I can only remember being truly happy once as a child.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46One memory. Isn't that pathetic?

0:25:46 > 0:25:48Depends on the memory.

0:25:49 > 0:25:53It was Easter. She made pancakes with syrup.

0:25:54 > 0:25:59And we ate the lot. We were laughing and throwing stuff at each other.

0:26:02 > 0:26:06Thing is, like... Why that time?

0:26:06 > 0:26:09You know, why only that time?

0:26:11 > 0:26:16When we're married, it'll be pancake and syrup every day.

0:26:16 > 0:26:17Promise?

0:26:17 > 0:26:21I have to. It's all I have.

0:26:23 > 0:26:25And no-one can take it away from me, not now.

0:26:30 > 0:26:32Cheers.

0:26:34 > 0:26:36Hi. This is Mandy Salter.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38My fiance, Ian Beale, made a booking with you.

0:26:38 > 0:26:42I'm sorry, there's been a mix-up and we have to cancel the Registry Office for Friday.

0:26:42 > 0:26:46Feel free to offer it to someone else. Thank you.

0:26:54 > 0:26:56Whatever it takes.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09So he's definitely moving, then?

0:27:09 > 0:27:11I just got a text from Lola

0:27:11 > 0:27:14saying that Ian's getting married the day after tomorrow. Mad house.

0:27:15 > 0:27:20- Going to be all right having the afternoon off? Show support and that. - Yeah. Yeah, course.

0:27:23 > 0:27:26Come on, George. I'll throw in a fish supper for you and the wife.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30I know it hardly covers the cost of the arrangements.

0:27:31 > 0:27:36It's just a little sweetener until the end of the month. That's all.

0:27:37 > 0:27:40Cheers, mate. I really do appreciate it.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43It's 12.30 at the town hall. Bring the kids, yeah?

0:27:43 > 0:27:45All right, mate. Bye.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49So the catering's cancelled?

0:27:49 > 0:27:50Thank you.

0:27:54 > 0:27:56What are you smiling at?

0:27:56 > 0:27:58SHE SHUDDERS

0:27:58 > 0:27:59Someone walk over your grave?

0:27:59 > 0:28:02There she is. My beautiful bride-to-be.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05- Got you a nice cuppa. Sit and I'll bring you some toast.- Ta.

0:28:05 > 0:28:07- I am working here. - KNOCK ON DOOR

0:28:07 > 0:28:12- Get that for us, love. - Love? Don't you mean cheating, murderous slapper?

0:28:12 > 0:28:16D'you know what, I hardly slept a wink after last night.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18I just lay there, listening to you breathe.

0:28:19 > 0:28:25- That is creepy.- I was just thinking, "There she is. The woman I love."

0:28:25 > 0:28:29I can't have estate agents snooping round. I'm meant to be revising.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32- Ian, I'm not even dressed yet! - We did book.

0:28:32 > 0:28:35The wedding, I tell you, everything is just starting to come together.

0:28:35 > 0:28:38It's going to be the best wedding you've ever had.

0:28:38 > 0:28:41- How many do you think I've had?! - Could we just take a quick look?

0:28:41 > 0:28:43- Yeah. Feel free. Just go round.- Dad!

0:28:43 > 0:28:46Love, I tell you. It is going to be magical.

0:28:46 > 0:28:48- What, like when you married Cindy? - What?

0:28:48 > 0:28:50Cos it won't, Ian.

0:28:50 > 0:28:52Yeah, you might've booked a Registry Office

0:28:52 > 0:28:56and, yeah, I expect you'll turn up, but what else?

0:28:56 > 0:28:59- Have you even ordered a cake yet? - Oh, cake!

0:28:59 > 0:29:00Guess not.

0:29:00 > 0:29:03Ian, you're looking for Cindy Beale mark two.

0:29:03 > 0:29:05I'm barely Mandy Salter mark one.

0:29:05 > 0:29:07What are we doing?

0:29:17 > 0:29:19Excuse me, excuse me. Masood!

0:29:20 > 0:29:22Masood! Wait!

0:29:24 > 0:29:26Whoa, whoa, you look terrible.

0:29:26 > 0:29:28You got anything for number 45?

0:29:28 > 0:29:30I dunno yet.

0:29:30 > 0:29:33- Well, come on, it's important. - There is an order, Ian.

0:29:33 > 0:29:37At last! My beautifully altered bridesmaid dresses.

0:29:37 > 0:29:40- Bridesmaids. - Mandy has got bridesmaids, right?

0:29:46 > 0:29:51Yes! Right, Town Hall Registry Office, 12.30 tomorrow.

0:29:51 > 0:29:55Make sure you're there. Bring the missus. It's going to be magical. You don't want to miss it, OK? Yes!

0:29:58 > 0:30:00You want to watch all three Twilight films tonight? Why?

0:30:00 > 0:30:03- Thought you hated them? - That was before the werewolf.

0:30:03 > 0:30:07- DOORBELL RINGS - Nah, me and Oscar are going to watch this Jason Statham film.

0:30:07 > 0:30:09I'm not having my little boy watch that nonsense!

0:30:09 > 0:30:12What's Twilight? That's nonsense, innit?

0:30:12 > 0:30:14- Just topless werewolves running about.- No!

0:30:14 > 0:30:16It's about abstinence, no nookie before marriage.

0:30:16 > 0:30:17You two should have tried it.

0:30:17 > 0:30:20Oi! I heard that! Hello, Jay.

0:30:20 > 0:30:23- Your post, ma'am!- Thank you.

0:30:23 > 0:30:25- Morning, everyone. - Jay, back me up, mate.

0:30:25 > 0:30:27They think they're watching the Twilight films tonight.

0:30:27 > 0:30:30Ain't that Jason Statham film on tonight?

0:30:30 > 0:30:33Yes, exactly. Well done. You've just earned yourself a driving lesson.

0:30:33 > 0:30:36- No, that does not mean you've won! - Yes, it does.- No. Tell him.

0:30:36 > 0:30:40- Family's a numbers game. One, two, three.- So he's part of the family now?- Yes, he is.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43You can't go now. You'll have to take him later. You've booked...

0:30:43 > 0:30:46We're only going round the square. Come on, Jay.

0:30:46 > 0:30:47Did you come to see me or my dad?

0:30:47 > 0:30:50Sorry, sweet cheeks. I thought you was working today.

0:30:50 > 0:30:53- I am. So leave me alone! - SHE SNORTS

0:30:54 > 0:30:56Why you here?

0:30:56 > 0:30:59Washing up? I'm beginning to feel like an house husband.

0:30:59 > 0:31:02Billy, get Whitney on the phone for me, would you?

0:31:02 > 0:31:04Charming. It's the mornings when I love you most.

0:31:04 > 0:31:08Tell her the dresses have arrived and sound her out about moving in...

0:31:08 > 0:31:10again.

0:31:10 > 0:31:12- I've got to interview Jean. - I'm sure you can manage both.

0:31:12 > 0:31:15You're not trying that woman? She'll sink the business!

0:31:15 > 0:31:18I need cleaners. I need to know if these dresses fit.

0:31:18 > 0:31:21And I need to know if I have to put my entire empire on hold,

0:31:21 > 0:31:24while I play peek-a-boo for the next five years!

0:31:27 > 0:31:30I'm Mandy Salter and I'm not getting on that boat!

0:31:30 > 0:31:32Come on, Alfie, pick your phone up.

0:31:32 > 0:31:35Look, you're supposed to be sharing the workload with me because you're my best man.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37Give me a call back, please!

0:31:37 > 0:31:41- By the way, I borrowed that money I found in your jeans.- How much?

0:31:41 > 0:31:44Listen, I was thinking... Bridesmaids. It just occurred to me.

0:31:44 > 0:31:45Have you asked anyone?

0:31:45 > 0:31:48Ian, I'm going to get my nails done for YOUR wedding.

0:31:48 > 0:31:51- You know, what more do you want from me?- Mand!

0:31:52 > 0:31:55- Take it no-one said yes.- You do it.

0:31:55 > 0:31:58Yeah! Mandy would love to have you as her bridesmaid.

0:31:58 > 0:32:00- I mean, she loves you.- Are you mad?

0:32:00 > 0:32:03- Do it for me, then.- What, after how you spoke to me yesterday?

0:32:03 > 0:32:05When did you last do anything for me?

0:32:05 > 0:32:07When did you do anything to deserve it?

0:32:09 > 0:32:11- Thanks, Maria.- It's Marie.

0:32:12 > 0:32:14Smells like compost.

0:32:14 > 0:32:17Yeah, it calms you down.

0:32:17 > 0:32:20I don't need calming. I need Ray to see what I see. The truth!

0:32:20 > 0:32:22Right, you've lost me.

0:32:22 > 0:32:27His daughter's dancing. The flailing limbs. The dis-coordination.

0:32:27 > 0:32:29- Dis-coordination? - As in un-rhythmicality.

0:32:29 > 0:32:33The girl dances like corn bouncing on a hotplate and not in a good way.

0:32:33 > 0:32:35Ah, you're just mean.

0:32:35 > 0:32:38Mean? He's the one bigging her up like she's the love child

0:32:38 > 0:32:40of Justin Timberlake and Usher.

0:32:40 > 0:32:42And before you say it, I know they're two blokes

0:32:42 > 0:32:44but this love child was IVF!

0:32:44 > 0:32:47Yes. Yes, Kim. That's exactly how IVF works.

0:32:47 > 0:32:50I'm sorry, but is this a science class or is it

0:32:50 > 0:32:52a Kim gets it off her resplendent chest session?

0:32:52 > 0:32:56Maybe you should just take her to one of your Kimba classes.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58Do me a favour.

0:32:58 > 0:33:01You should be happy, Dad. You get to spend the day with me.

0:33:01 > 0:33:05Oh, look at this. My two favourite women all under one roof.

0:33:05 > 0:33:08- You all right, babe? - Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Only Sasha can't go to her school trip today

0:33:10 > 0:33:13because someone forgot to bring home a letter for me to sign.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16- I don't care how cotton mills work. - You can't stay at the Vic all day.

0:33:16 > 0:33:20Oh, right. Kim was just saying that she would love to...

0:33:20 > 0:33:21KIM KICKS HER

0:33:21 > 0:33:24..to take your Sasha... SHE COUGHS

0:33:24 > 0:33:28..to one of her Kimba classes, you know.

0:33:28 > 0:33:33Yeah. That's a wicked idea. So long as it doesn't involve gravestones!

0:33:34 > 0:33:38What do you reckon, babe? Want to show 'em how it's done?

0:33:38 > 0:33:39Bust a couple of moves, yeah?

0:33:39 > 0:33:41HE LAUGHS

0:34:00 > 0:34:02- Bridesmaid! - Oh, Ian! You frightened me.

0:34:02 > 0:34:05Mandy would love to have you as her bridesmaid.

0:34:05 > 0:34:06No, I'm Janine's.

0:34:06 > 0:34:08What are you? About a size ten?

0:34:08 > 0:34:12I'm an eight. Ian, I haven't agreed to anything.

0:34:12 > 0:34:16- Lauren, he wants me to be Mandy's bridesmaid. - I thought you were Janine's?

0:34:16 > 0:34:19It'd make her so happy on her special day. Please.

0:34:19 > 0:34:21- I can always slip you 50 later. - Well, ain't that a bit cheap?

0:34:21 > 0:34:25- 100?- No, I mean bribing people to like your wife.

0:34:25 > 0:34:29I know. It's a hassle. There's fittings and dress rehearsals and all the rest of it.

0:34:29 > 0:34:30All right. You do it then.

0:34:30 > 0:34:33We've got that appointment thing, ain't we, with my mum?

0:34:33 > 0:34:37So we're well late already. Sorry.

0:34:37 > 0:34:40Look, you'll still come along to the service, won't you?

0:34:40 > 0:34:44Town Hall Registry Office. Tomorrow. 12.30. Yeah? It'll be magical!

0:34:44 > 0:34:46PHONE RINGS

0:34:46 > 0:34:48Alfie, where you been?

0:34:49 > 0:34:53Yeah, listen, mate. This is important, OK? We forgot bridesmaids!

0:34:55 > 0:34:58What d'you mean you're not coming back?

0:34:58 > 0:35:02The thing is I've got an interview with Billy in, um, 15 minutes!

0:35:02 > 0:35:05So you put the money in and expect other people to do the hard work?

0:35:05 > 0:35:09No! No. I just don't know how helpful I'll be.

0:35:09 > 0:35:12Not very if you don't learn the figures.

0:35:12 > 0:35:13Jean.

0:35:14 > 0:35:16Look out there.

0:35:18 > 0:35:19Go on.

0:35:19 > 0:35:24A boxing gym is the heartbeat of a community.

0:35:25 > 0:35:28Don't just nod. You've got to feel it.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33You know, that's Walford.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36The big, the small.

0:35:37 > 0:35:39The rich, the poor.

0:35:41 > 0:35:44That's the community, Jean. Just beating.

0:35:46 > 0:35:49You don't just put money into something like that.

0:35:49 > 0:35:51Got to put your soul into it as well.

0:35:53 > 0:35:55Right.

0:35:55 > 0:36:00Well, we'd better get started, then.

0:36:06 > 0:36:08It was just so weird. Like, desperate.

0:36:08 > 0:36:11Maybe Mandy just really likes you.

0:36:11 > 0:36:12No-one said yes, more like.

0:36:12 > 0:36:15Yeah, forget maid of honour, maid of last resort.

0:36:15 > 0:36:17That's even more reason for you to do it.

0:36:17 > 0:36:19- Babe, don't get involved.- Hello?

0:36:19 > 0:36:22If you want to chip in, you can pay like everyone else.

0:36:22 > 0:36:24I've already said yes to Janine.

0:36:24 > 0:36:27It'll have to be you then, won't it? I mean, how awful must it be

0:36:27 > 0:36:29knowing you haven't got a single friend in the world?

0:36:29 > 0:36:31Er, no. The guilt trip is not working.

0:36:31 > 0:36:33- You're done.- Lovely. Cheers.

0:36:33 > 0:36:36Oh, d'you know they're moving house as well?

0:36:36 > 0:36:38Yep, saw the sign up this morning.

0:36:38 > 0:36:42Look at your face, look. It's going to be a disaster.

0:36:42 > 0:36:44Oh, hello, Mandy! What can I do for you?

0:36:44 > 0:36:46Um, nails. I suppose.

0:36:46 > 0:36:50Right. Lovely. Thanks for the chop.

0:36:50 > 0:36:51Don't get involved.

0:36:54 > 0:36:57- What was he on about?- No idea.

0:36:58 > 0:37:02OK, Kimba-ettes, thank you so much. Sorry about the change of venue.

0:37:02 > 0:37:05They double-booked me. Come on, Jackie. Come on, Jackie.

0:37:05 > 0:37:08Don't worry, their heads have been busted.

0:37:11 > 0:37:12You OK there, Sasha?

0:37:12 > 0:37:15I'm just doing my thing.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17Yeah? Well, it's my class. And it's MY thing now.

0:37:17 > 0:37:20So watch and learn!

0:37:20 > 0:37:22OK. Let's go. Un, deux, trois, quatre!

0:37:22 > 0:37:26Come on! And the arms! Bend your back, bend your back.

0:37:26 > 0:37:29Give me the arms. Arms!

0:37:29 > 0:37:34You must be very excited at the moment with everything that's going on.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37With the wedding and...

0:37:40 > 0:37:42Lauren says you're moving house.

0:37:43 > 0:37:46Can't be great for Lucy, can it, with the exams coming up?

0:37:49 > 0:37:52Why does everybody assume it's my fault?

0:37:52 > 0:37:56You know, I was minding my own business, working in the club

0:37:56 > 0:38:01and Ian dragged me back here and everything is my fault ever since.

0:38:03 > 0:38:06Hang on, I haven't finished...

0:38:07 > 0:38:09You haven't paid me.

0:38:10 > 0:38:13I always thought there's a lyrical quality to your speech.

0:38:13 > 0:38:15I mean, you'd make a perfect best man for me.

0:38:15 > 0:38:18Ian, bruvver, why you telling me stuff I already know?

0:38:18 > 0:38:21I was thinking you could have a word with Lauren and Whitney. I can pay.

0:38:21 > 0:38:23I mean, do I look like a window cleaner to you?

0:38:23 > 0:38:27I mean, where does it say in my job description window cleaner?

0:38:27 > 0:38:28I do this the whole day.

0:38:28 > 0:38:31I sell my soul the whole day, and for what, man?

0:38:31 > 0:38:33When I go home, the selling stops, all right?

0:38:33 > 0:38:35That is Fats' time, that is my time.

0:38:35 > 0:38:38I put on some tunes. I get down with the ladies. All right?

0:38:38 > 0:38:41I don't do Bar Mitzvahs or weddings, bruv. Best man? What you thinking?

0:38:42 > 0:38:44Did I just hear right?

0:38:44 > 0:38:47Alfie's gone away. He's dumped me in it.

0:38:47 > 0:38:50And he's your best bet?

0:38:50 > 0:38:53I was just passing, OK? Phil, it's none of your business.

0:38:53 > 0:38:57Well, you acting weird, pulling a shotgun wedding, selling your house, that's my business.

0:38:57 > 0:39:01- Now have I got something to worry about?- Thought you'd be pleased.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11You all right?

0:39:11 > 0:39:13SHE SIGHS

0:39:13 > 0:39:15Yeah. Time travelling.

0:39:17 > 0:39:20You know, one day I'll have worked here my whole life.

0:39:20 > 0:39:23- Can I sit down?- Yeah.

0:39:25 > 0:39:26You know, Mandy,

0:39:26 > 0:39:30you don't seem like someone that's getting married in two days.

0:39:30 > 0:39:32How should I seem?

0:39:32 > 0:39:36Excited. Scared. Maybe up and down, left and right.

0:39:36 > 0:39:39You just seem...down.

0:39:40 > 0:39:44Well, there's not a lot to get up about.

0:39:44 > 0:39:49My mum said I'd mess it up. Who am I to argue, eh?

0:39:50 > 0:39:52Mothers, eh?

0:39:53 > 0:39:55Ain't you one?

0:39:55 > 0:40:00Yeah. Somewhere across town, one of my girls is hating me for something I've said without thinking.

0:40:00 > 0:40:02No, my mum meant it.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07You know, Mandy, when you're a mum

0:40:07 > 0:40:09you spend so much of your life being ignored

0:40:09 > 0:40:12that it's easy to forget how much your words mean to your kids.

0:40:12 > 0:40:15I could say something to a mate and it's forgotten in minutes.

0:40:15 > 0:40:18But I say something to one of my babies,

0:40:18 > 0:40:20and they remember it for ever.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23They hate me for it.

0:40:23 > 0:40:24Yeah, that's true.

0:40:24 > 0:40:29You're getting married, Mandy. You should get your mum's blessing.

0:40:32 > 0:40:37Well, she's in hospital. I don't even know how bad it is.

0:40:38 > 0:40:40That's even more reason then.

0:40:44 > 0:40:49You know where I am...if you need your nails finishing.

0:40:53 > 0:40:57- That's well above inflation so we can put that back into the business. - PHONE RINGS

0:40:59 > 0:41:01Oh, that's Billy!

0:41:01 > 0:41:04He says if I don't go now, I've lost the job.

0:41:04 > 0:41:09Jean, look. Jean, look. Look at this kid. See this kid?

0:41:09 > 0:41:11He loves nicking cars.

0:41:11 > 0:41:16Loves it. But when he's here, we can keep him out of trouble.

0:41:16 > 0:41:19Me and Jack, we lack a woman's touch, Jean. You know?

0:41:19 > 0:41:21He looks so young.

0:41:21 > 0:41:25Yeah. If you can think of this place as a home...

0:41:26 > 0:41:29..then it needs a mother. Every boy needs his mum, right?

0:41:33 > 0:41:37What's this? You fancy a bit of sparring do you, Jean?

0:41:39 > 0:41:43See, look. He loves having you here. We all love having you here, Jean.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47Come on. Let's go and celebrate. Let's have a drink.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50- Celebrate?- Yeah, yeah. Celebrate. You're going to be rich, Jean.

0:41:50 > 0:41:53You're going to be very, very rich. Forget Billy. Come on.

0:41:56 > 0:41:58Hey, babe. How'd it go?

0:41:58 > 0:42:01Standard was pretty low. Can I get changed upstairs?

0:42:01 > 0:42:03Course you can.

0:42:04 > 0:42:07She says my standards are low and you just smile?

0:42:07 > 0:42:11So come on, then. How good was she? Bet they couldn't keep up, huh?

0:42:11 > 0:42:13And now you're doing it! You're slagging off my class.

0:42:13 > 0:42:15Babe, I didn't mean any harm by it.

0:42:15 > 0:42:17I don't mean no harm by this.

0:42:17 > 0:42:19That girl's dancing is unholy. It's un-bubblicious.

0:42:19 > 0:42:25- You telling her different sets her up for one almighty fall. - HE LAUGHS

0:42:25 > 0:42:28Does my face say laugh? No, it says run for cover.

0:42:28 > 0:42:31What, you being serious?

0:42:31 > 0:42:34Right. Well, thanks for looking after her, yeah?

0:42:34 > 0:42:36- I'm just saying...- I know she's not the best, all right.

0:42:36 > 0:42:40But what am I supposed to do? Put her down because she wouldn't win Strictly?

0:42:40 > 0:42:42Suppose not.

0:42:42 > 0:42:44Course I'm going to encourage her.

0:42:44 > 0:42:47That's what you do when you're a parent. You big up your kids.

0:42:47 > 0:42:49Sorry.

0:42:52 > 0:42:55When I see that girl, I see everything she can be.

0:42:57 > 0:42:59You just see everything that she can't.

0:43:01 > 0:43:05- I dunno why you put up with me. - Cos I love you.

0:43:09 > 0:43:11Is it?

0:43:11 > 0:43:13You all right there, babe?

0:43:13 > 0:43:15I love you too!

0:43:15 > 0:43:17Your mother's just out of recovery.

0:43:17 > 0:43:20If you wait a sec, I'll take you through. The others are here too.

0:43:20 > 0:43:22Recovery?

0:43:23 > 0:43:25What others?

0:43:27 > 0:43:30Jack. You and Lauren, you're close, yeah?

0:43:30 > 0:43:32Yeah. She's my niece.

0:43:32 > 0:43:35What I mean is, she's a nice girl, isn't she?

0:43:35 > 0:43:37It'd be great to have her at the wedding.

0:43:37 > 0:43:38Town Hall, 12.30. You as well.

0:43:38 > 0:43:42This is nice. I'm five minutes late and you get a ringer in already!

0:43:42 > 0:43:44Well, he sat down, uninvited.

0:43:44 > 0:43:47Marie, nice cup of tea for me, please, beautiful.

0:43:47 > 0:43:49- So what's he been on about? - This isn't a joke, OK?

0:43:49 > 0:43:52So far he's established that Lauren's my niece and that she's a very nice girl.

0:43:52 > 0:43:55He'll be pointing out that we're brothers next.

0:43:55 > 0:43:58I thought Lauren would like to be bridesmaid for Mandy.

0:43:58 > 0:44:01I've got this one. Let me get this straight. Mandy is your aunt?

0:44:01 > 0:44:05- Fiancee!- What? You're marrying your aunt?- Your family, Ian. God.

0:44:05 > 0:44:08I'm still trying to work out how Phil's son is your brother.

0:44:08 > 0:44:10Can you just shut up, please?

0:44:10 > 0:44:13- Ooh! Charming!- That's no way to ask for a favour, is it?

0:44:13 > 0:44:16- I need a bridesmaid, OK! - THEY LAUGH

0:44:16 > 0:44:17No, no. Mandy needs a bridesmaid.

0:44:17 > 0:44:19Forgive me if I get this wrong,

0:44:19 > 0:44:21but isn't that normally the job of the bride?

0:44:21 > 0:44:24- She ain't having cold feet, is she? - What did you say?

0:44:24 > 0:44:26- He's only joking.- Truth hurt?- Derek.

0:44:26 > 0:44:28No. She loves me.

0:44:28 > 0:44:30I've had strippers fall in love with me.

0:44:30 > 0:44:32They probably meant it until my money ran out.

0:44:32 > 0:44:34You take that back.

0:44:34 > 0:44:36See, what you've got to remember,

0:44:36 > 0:44:38is there's always someone with more dough to tempt 'em away.

0:44:38 > 0:44:40- Don't you push me.- Or what?

0:44:40 > 0:44:43You ain't going to ask me to be your bridesmaid?

0:44:43 > 0:44:46Right, that's it! We're closing the caff! Come on, all of you. Out!

0:44:46 > 0:44:49- I haven't had my cuppa tea yet! - I am not a joke, all right?

0:44:49 > 0:44:51- Go on, everybody out. - I haven't finished!

0:44:51 > 0:44:53- You think I'm a joke, just get out!- What?

0:44:53 > 0:44:55Come on, Jack.

0:44:56 > 0:44:58Sorry about this place. It's disgusting.

0:44:58 > 0:45:00They've had a dance class in here or something.

0:45:00 > 0:45:02No, no, it's all right.

0:45:02 > 0:45:07I was wondering what my son would make of his mum

0:45:07 > 0:45:09becoming a business woman.

0:45:10 > 0:45:12A venture capitalist, no less!

0:45:12 > 0:45:14SHE LAUGHS

0:45:15 > 0:45:18Cheers.

0:45:26 > 0:45:31This is my daughter Stacey.

0:45:31 > 0:45:35And Sean, my son.

0:45:35 > 0:45:40I'll tell him later. Well, I'll tell his picture.

0:45:40 > 0:45:41We chat all the time.

0:45:42 > 0:45:45Sounds bonkers, I know.

0:45:47 > 0:45:50I think it's important to stay in touch with people

0:45:50 > 0:45:52when they're not there.

0:45:52 > 0:45:55Especially when they're not there. Don't you think?

0:45:55 > 0:45:58- I don't have any pictures.- Ah.

0:45:59 > 0:46:02- Not even of your mum?- No.

0:46:08 > 0:46:12- What is it?- There was a picture.

0:46:13 > 0:46:15In their bedroom.

0:46:16 > 0:46:18Old black and white one, portrait.

0:46:18 > 0:46:21One of those old portraits. That's right.

0:46:23 > 0:46:26She's young in it. She's younger than me.

0:46:26 > 0:46:30Really odd when you see your parents as children, isn't it?

0:46:30 > 0:46:33It's like an intrusion.

0:46:33 > 0:46:37Yeah. She's wearing a white frilly dress with a bow.

0:46:41 > 0:46:45And she's not happy about it. She's wearing one of these round her neck.

0:46:49 > 0:46:51What happened to it?

0:46:51 > 0:46:54Oh, my dad took it down.

0:46:54 > 0:46:56Said she wasn't that person any more.

0:46:56 > 0:46:59Oh, you never know. He might still have it.

0:47:00 > 0:47:03He might be talking to her like I talk to Sean.

0:47:04 > 0:47:06Lucky him.

0:47:10 > 0:47:12Lauren won't be involved in that wedding now.

0:47:12 > 0:47:16- He's barred from the Bhajee. - What's with the mothers' meeting?

0:47:16 > 0:47:18We've just been expelled from the caff.

0:47:18 > 0:47:21Ian didn't quite get Derek's sense of humour.

0:47:21 > 0:47:24He went mad, slung us all out. Look, poor Marie.

0:47:24 > 0:47:27Look, she's all upset. Come here, darling, come here.

0:47:27 > 0:47:30- Where is he now? - Said something about the chippy.

0:47:31 > 0:47:35Oh, don't go after him, Max. Max!

0:47:38 > 0:47:40Who...?

0:47:40 > 0:47:41Um, that's not my mum.

0:47:41 > 0:47:43Lorraine Hardy?

0:47:43 > 0:47:46No. Lorraine Stephens.

0:47:46 > 0:47:48Oh, I'm terribly sorry.

0:47:48 > 0:47:52- If you'd just like to come back to the day room.- What's wrong?

0:47:52 > 0:47:53If you'd just like to come this way.

0:48:03 > 0:48:05KNOCK ON DOOR

0:48:08 > 0:48:10You OK, Ian?

0:48:18 > 0:48:20Is the stall closed an' all?

0:48:20 > 0:48:22- It ain't funny.- Who said it was?

0:48:24 > 0:48:27People can mock me cos I want to have a best man at my wedding but...

0:48:27 > 0:48:30But to laugh at Mandy? Why shouldn't she have a magical day?

0:48:30 > 0:48:32And a beautiful dress and bridesmaids?

0:48:32 > 0:48:34Course, mate. Course she deserves all that.

0:48:34 > 0:48:37Your Lauren doesn't think so or my Lucy.

0:48:37 > 0:48:38Sad thing is, she don't either.

0:48:40 > 0:48:45Look, Ian, I'm sorry about my brothers. They can be idiots.

0:48:45 > 0:48:47All I've got, right, I've got a venue,

0:48:47 > 0:48:49I've got a honeymoon and I've got a fiancee.

0:48:49 > 0:48:52I don't even know how many people are turning up.

0:48:52 > 0:48:55Ian, why don't you just call it off, mate?

0:48:55 > 0:48:59Because it'll make her feel worthless. OK?

0:48:59 > 0:49:02She needs to have a beautiful day so...

0:49:03 > 0:49:06..so she knows how beautiful she is.

0:49:14 > 0:49:16So what we got here?

0:49:16 > 0:49:20Car. I know just the man for the car.

0:49:20 > 0:49:23Do you a good deal, an' all. Cake.

0:49:25 > 0:49:27Sounds like best man talk.

0:49:31 > 0:49:34Go on, then, Ian. Go on, I guess so.

0:49:34 > 0:49:37No, you can't. I've got...

0:49:37 > 0:49:39Don't expect a big speech, all right? I don't do 'em.

0:49:50 > 0:49:52Here I am...again.

0:49:54 > 0:49:57I am sorry about earlier.

0:49:58 > 0:50:00I can be clumsy with words.

0:50:02 > 0:50:05She was very religious, my mother.

0:50:07 > 0:50:10Heaven and...hell.

0:50:11 > 0:50:14Very, very real to her.

0:50:16 > 0:50:21This - St Christopher, he is - is the patron saint of travel.

0:50:22 > 0:50:25She gave my brother Craig one as well.

0:50:25 > 0:50:30She said that he couldn't help her where she was going.

0:50:35 > 0:50:40Imagine that. Imagine sending yourself to hell.

0:50:44 > 0:50:47You said that this place needed a mum.

0:50:51 > 0:50:54Would you like a hug? Us mums are good at hugs.

0:51:07 > 0:51:10He's gone mad, all right. He's proper lost it, Dad.

0:51:10 > 0:51:13- What you talking about?- Ian! He threw everyone out the chippy and the caff.

0:51:13 > 0:51:16Shut 'em down. Apparently he was screaming in the street.

0:51:16 > 0:51:19- When was this?- This afternoon. They're all talking about it at school.

0:51:19 > 0:51:22Everyone is talking about it! Maybe that's what he wants though.

0:51:22 > 0:51:25Maybe he wants people to know cos he wants it off his shoulders.

0:51:25 > 0:51:29That's why he's losing it. Dad, you've got to do something.

0:51:30 > 0:51:32Hello, love. You want some lunch?

0:51:33 > 0:51:35What's up?

0:51:37 > 0:51:39I'm Ian Beale's best man.

0:51:40 > 0:51:41What? You said not to get involved!

0:51:43 > 0:51:44What's happened?

0:51:44 > 0:51:47Well, sort of volunteered, didn't I?

0:51:47 > 0:51:50Oh. That's lovely of you.

0:51:50 > 0:51:52I thought that Ben was Ian's best man?

0:51:52 > 0:51:55What on earth are you going to say in your speech?

0:51:55 > 0:51:58Talk about all the mad adventures that you two have been on?

0:51:58 > 0:52:00If you need help, ask me.

0:52:00 > 0:52:02Why you so keen?

0:52:02 > 0:52:05Jane's been so worried about Bobby since she left.

0:52:05 > 0:52:07Ian and Mandy married, that'll be the stability he needs.

0:52:07 > 0:52:09- PHONE RINGS - Hello, Max Branning?

0:52:09 > 0:52:10What's up, Jay?

0:52:10 > 0:52:12Nothing.

0:52:12 > 0:52:14You're joking me?

0:52:15 > 0:52:16Max?

0:52:21 > 0:52:25Ian, it's Max. Yeah, your best man.

0:52:25 > 0:52:27Listen, mate, I called the Registry Office on the way back

0:52:27 > 0:52:30and they've just got back to me.

0:52:30 > 0:52:33There's something you need to know.

0:52:37 > 0:52:39What's up with you?

0:52:40 > 0:52:43This morning you said...

0:52:43 > 0:52:46Catering! Cancelled by Mandy Salter.

0:52:46 > 0:52:49Registry Office, cancelled by Mandy Salter. Were you going to tell me?

0:52:49 > 0:52:51Were you going to let me turn up and find out that way?

0:52:51 > 0:52:54Were you even going to bother turning up yourself?

0:52:54 > 0:52:56- I don't understand.- Do you know what I have gone through today?

0:52:56 > 0:52:58How much pride I've had to swallow?

0:52:58 > 0:53:02- I've had some...- To try and give you a magical day. Your special day.

0:53:02 > 0:53:06People warned me off you, OK? And I wouldn't have it.

0:53:06 > 0:53:08I said no. She is not a slapper. She is not a gold digger

0:53:08 > 0:53:11- She is capable of love. - Oh, shut up!

0:53:11 > 0:53:12Just shut up!

0:53:15 > 0:53:16I went to see my mum today.

0:53:18 > 0:53:20I got there but I was...

0:53:21 > 0:53:23I was too late.

0:53:26 > 0:53:28My mum's dead.

0:53:46 > 0:53:49THEY GIGGLE

0:53:53 > 0:53:55You were doing a good job, then.

0:54:01 > 0:54:03HE LAUGHS

0:54:03 > 0:54:05What's funny?

0:54:05 > 0:54:07It's amazing how you become like your parents, innit?

0:54:07 > 0:54:11I was just about to tell you to use a glass.

0:54:11 > 0:54:13No.

0:54:13 > 0:54:14Good run?

0:54:14 > 0:54:16Yeah, yeah, it was good for thinking.

0:54:16 > 0:54:18And what d'you come up with?

0:54:18 > 0:54:20It might be nice to have dinner tonight.

0:54:20 > 0:54:24I'm not doing anything this evening, that'd be very nice, thank you.

0:54:24 > 0:54:26Yeah. Yeah, funny.

0:54:26 > 0:54:28No, I meant me and Whit - romantically.

0:54:28 > 0:54:32Are you saying that my presence isn't conducive to romance?

0:54:32 > 0:54:35No... No, I'm not saying that. It's just, it might...

0:54:35 > 0:54:37- HE LAUGHS - I'm only joking!

0:54:37 > 0:54:40I'll be out your way, son, don't worry.

0:54:42 > 0:54:46Yeah, well, that's my offer. 40 below the asking price.

0:54:46 > 0:54:49And I can pay cash.

0:54:49 > 0:54:52I'm sure that that will appeal to Mr Beale,

0:54:52 > 0:54:55given that he doesn't seem to have any.

0:55:01 > 0:55:03Dad.

0:55:03 > 0:55:05Shhh!

0:55:05 > 0:55:08- How's Mandy?- She's asleep.

0:55:08 > 0:55:11Has she said anything? About yesterday?

0:55:11 > 0:55:14No. I think cancelling everything, it was like a reflex action...

0:55:14 > 0:55:16So what now?

0:55:16 > 0:55:20Well, it's up to all of us to help her get through it, isn't it.

0:55:20 > 0:55:22You're not thinking of going ahead with the wedding?

0:55:22 > 0:55:23Dad, her mum has just...

0:55:23 > 0:55:26Look, it's a decent way to celebrate her life, OK.

0:55:26 > 0:55:28And you're going to make a fantastic bridesmaid.

0:55:28 > 0:55:32Just don't mention it to her when she wakes up. Let her... You know.

0:55:37 > 0:55:39Are you having a laugh? It's 8 o'clock in the morning!

0:55:39 > 0:55:41Erm, I'm doing this to pass my exams.

0:55:41 > 0:55:44Oh, "Pass my exams." Live a little.

0:55:44 > 0:55:46- What, like you? - Oh, you're so good.

0:55:46 > 0:55:50Look at that - Ian Beale. He wants me to put everything back on.

0:55:50 > 0:55:52They must have sorted things out, then.

0:55:52 > 0:55:55How do you sort out a dead mum that quick?

0:55:56 > 0:55:57What?

0:55:57 > 0:56:01Well, a bit of consideration. Mandy must be devastated.

0:56:01 > 0:56:04Yeah, your best-man speech is going to be a real tear-jerker then(!)

0:56:04 > 0:56:05Shut up, Lauren.

0:56:05 > 0:56:10You're just put out cos me and Jay won the TV-remote wars last night.

0:56:11 > 0:56:13You got exams today?

0:56:13 > 0:56:15English and Science.

0:56:16 > 0:56:18- Feeling OK about them?- What?!

0:56:18 > 0:56:21Dad, I ain't slept a wink. Last night, I spoke to Lola,

0:56:21 > 0:56:23she was, you know, telling me how Ian had this mad look in his eyes

0:56:23 > 0:56:25when he threw her out the chippy.

0:56:25 > 0:56:27- You know, like a zombie. - Well, I'll sort it.

0:56:27 > 0:56:29He could send us down for this.

0:56:29 > 0:56:31I'll sort it, OK? One way or another.

0:56:35 > 0:56:38SHE GASPS Tyler, stop it!

0:56:38 > 0:56:41I'm late for work! Don't make me bring the pain.

0:56:41 > 0:56:44All right, all right. Guess who's got a free house tonight...

0:56:44 > 0:56:47Let me guess. Must be someone I know, or you wouldn't bother asking.

0:56:47 > 0:56:50- Oh, OK.- Tamwar? - All right, all right.

0:56:50 > 0:56:51I guess I'll have to invite someone else

0:56:51 > 0:56:55- for a beautiful, candle-lit dinner for two, then.- Oh, really?

0:56:56 > 0:56:58See you later. Don't bring Tamwar.

0:56:58 > 0:57:00I won't.

0:57:00 > 0:57:02There you are! Have you been avoiding my minions?

0:57:02 > 0:57:04Because it's tantamount to avoiding me.

0:57:04 > 0:57:07No, I've been busy with work and Tyler.

0:57:07 > 0:57:09- OK, so have you given it much thought?- What?

0:57:09 > 0:57:12Moving in! Billy said that he'd left a message.

0:57:12 > 0:57:14I thought Michael would be moving in? He's the dad.

0:57:14 > 0:57:17And what is that supposed to mean?

0:57:17 > 0:57:18Nothing. Nothing, it's just...

0:57:18 > 0:57:21most girls would die to have some sharply dressed go-getter

0:57:21 > 0:57:22in the house.

0:57:22 > 0:57:24Oh, please, Michael is not moving in!

0:57:24 > 0:57:26Look, is this a yes or a no?

0:57:26 > 0:57:28Because if it's a no, can you please just say so.

0:57:28 > 0:57:30Janine, it's going to be all right, OK?

0:57:30 > 0:57:33You're going to cope. Mums always do.

0:57:33 > 0:57:36Janine? I didn't mean anything...

0:57:38 > 0:57:41No, I'm not accepting 40 below.

0:57:41 > 0:57:43Well, this is London, right?

0:57:43 > 0:57:45The prices go up. It's simple economics.

0:57:45 > 0:57:48Well, you're the estate agent, not me.

0:57:49 > 0:57:51Oh, Ian. Are you all right?

0:57:51 > 0:57:52Tanya.

0:57:52 > 0:57:55I just dropped in to see how Mandy's doing.

0:57:55 > 0:57:56Yeah, she's asleep.

0:57:56 > 0:57:59Max told me about her mum. It's crazy, we were only talking about her yesterday.

0:57:59 > 0:58:01Has she ask you to be bridesmaid?

0:58:01 > 0:58:03No. Why? She wouldn't, would she?

0:58:04 > 0:58:06She must be distraught, poor girl.

0:58:06 > 0:58:08Yeah, it's really knocked her for six.

0:58:08 > 0:58:11But it's good that she's got something to focus on.

0:58:11 > 0:58:14Oh, right. So, you're still going ahead with everything?

0:58:14 > 0:58:16Only Max said she cancelled the venue.

0:58:16 > 0:58:19Yeah, it's only a quick phone call. Easily done.

0:58:19 > 0:58:22- Right, you think she'll be up to that tomorrow, do you?- Yeah.

0:58:22 > 0:58:25Thanks for coming round. She'll really appreciate it.

0:58:25 > 0:58:28OK, well, look, if you need us to take Bobby off your hands...

0:58:28 > 0:58:32- Yeah, absolutely. She'll be touched. - You know where we are...- See you.

0:58:32 > 0:58:35It's not my fault you've ended up the best man!

0:58:35 > 0:58:38I told you not to go after him!

0:58:38 > 0:58:41Here, look, let me make it up to you. I'll make amends.

0:58:41 > 0:58:44Come out with me for a nice drink tonight, just the two of us, eh?

0:58:44 > 0:58:45I want to give little Tyler and Whitney space.

0:58:45 > 0:58:50- PHONE RINGS - Hold up, it's the venue. Hang on. Hello? Yeah.

0:58:50 > 0:58:53What, the card was declined?

0:58:53 > 0:58:57Yeah, well, you said the admin fee was only 50 quid!

0:58:57 > 0:58:59And it was still declined, yeah? Hold up, hold up.

0:58:59 > 0:59:01I've got to sort this out, Del, sorry.

0:59:01 > 0:59:04Hang on, let me just grab the card for you. Hang on.

0:59:04 > 0:59:06Well, good luck!

0:59:06 > 0:59:08Yeah, I know I'm going to be very, very rich...

0:59:08 > 0:59:12Wahey! It's just that I need some money now.

0:59:14 > 0:59:17So I was wondering if you might have a word with Billy

0:59:17 > 0:59:20and tell him that it was your fault I missed the interview yesterday.

0:59:20 > 0:59:22Well, not your fault exactly...

0:59:22 > 0:59:24Course I can. It's fine, it's fine.

0:59:24 > 0:59:26- Just leave it with me.- Thanks.

0:59:27 > 0:59:29I've seen Million Dollar Baby - the answer's no.

0:59:29 > 0:59:32What? No, it's Janine, actually...

0:59:32 > 0:59:35- Is she OK?- Why?

0:59:35 > 0:59:38Well, she asked me to move in again earlier and I said no...

0:59:38 > 0:59:42This is ridiculous. She'll have Billy living there before me!

0:59:42 > 0:59:46- Aren't bridesmaids supposed to get new dresses?- I'm not sure about the red one, but the green one is OK.

0:59:46 > 0:59:49- Can't I wear black? - No, you can't wear black.

0:59:49 > 0:59:53It's not very sensitive, is it? The green one will be lovely.

0:59:53 > 0:59:54How you doing, love?

0:59:56 > 0:59:59What time is it? Why didn't you wake me?

0:59:59 > 1:00:01Cos I thought you deserved to have a lie in, OK?

1:00:01 > 1:00:03Now, come on. Come and sit yourself down.

1:00:03 > 1:00:06Marie's going to cover the cafe, so we haven't got to worry about that.

1:00:06 > 1:00:10Now, you just relax and I'll go and make you a nice cup of tea.

1:00:10 > 1:00:11About the funeral...

1:00:11 > 1:00:15Ian, you can stick her in the allotment with the cabbages and carrots for all I care.

1:00:15 > 1:00:17Right...

1:00:17 > 1:00:19What about the wedding?

1:00:20 > 1:00:22Ian...

1:00:24 > 1:00:26I can't go through with it. Not tomorrow.

1:00:26 > 1:00:28Yes, you can.

1:00:28 > 1:00:32No, Ian, I just need a little bit of time.

1:00:32 > 1:00:34I'm not saying never. I'm not.

1:00:34 > 1:00:36Just a couple of weeks.

1:00:36 > 1:00:38You're overreacting.

1:00:38 > 1:00:41My mum has just died.

1:00:41 > 1:00:43KNOCKING AT DOOR

1:00:48 > 1:00:51All right, Ian. It's your card, mate, it's been rejected.

1:00:53 > 1:00:56What do you mean it's been rejected? I only just got it!

1:00:56 > 1:00:59- Ian, it wouldn't go through, mate. - What?! Oh, come with me.

1:01:00 > 1:01:02What do you mean he said no?

1:01:02 > 1:01:05All right, well, did you tell him that I offered to pay cash?

1:01:05 > 1:01:06KNOCK AT DOOR

1:01:06 > 1:01:11OK, in that case, revise my offer down by 10,000.

1:01:11 > 1:01:15Yes, down. And then if he still says no,

1:01:15 > 1:01:18you can tell him that the money I lent him at the weekend,

1:01:18 > 1:01:20I would like back. Thank you.

1:01:20 > 1:01:22You're not buying another place, are you?

1:01:22 > 1:01:24What did you want?

1:01:24 > 1:01:27That's very rude. I heard you were upset, yeah?

1:01:27 > 1:01:29- But that was ten minutes ago... - Must be Whitney.

1:01:29 > 1:01:31Yeah. She was worried.

1:01:31 > 1:01:34Not worried enough to move in though, right?

1:01:34 > 1:01:35Why would you even want her to?

1:01:35 > 1:01:38Because I'm not going to let this baby get in the way of my business.

1:01:38 > 1:01:40With the genes that baby's getting,

1:01:40 > 1:01:42she'll be pulling a hostile takeover in months.

1:01:42 > 1:01:45I'm being serious, Michael, all right? I've got to get on.

1:01:45 > 1:01:51Well, listen, I'm not moving until you ask me to move in, OK?

1:01:51 > 1:01:53Because you've asked every other no-mark in the Square.

1:01:53 > 1:01:57So, whenever you're ready. In your own time.

1:02:06 > 1:02:08Is that right, Ian?

1:02:11 > 1:02:13Well, I guess that's it, mate, innit?

1:02:13 > 1:02:16The money for the funeral - it must have come out the account.

1:02:16 > 1:02:19Right. Must have been expensive, was it?

1:02:19 > 1:02:20Lend it to me.

1:02:20 > 1:02:23Come on, Max. Look, you know I'm good for it, OK?

1:02:23 > 1:02:26I've got the caff, I've got the chippy, I've got the house...

1:02:26 > 1:02:29I'll pay you back, it's just a cash-flow thing.

1:02:29 > 1:02:31It's not that, it's not that, all right?

1:02:31 > 1:02:33I ain't being funny, but it's Mandy, innit?

1:02:33 > 1:02:36- You know, she's the one who's cancelled all this.- She's grieving!

1:02:36 > 1:02:38Yeah, she still is. It ain't been 24 hours, Ian.

1:02:38 > 1:02:42- She don't want to get married tomorrow...- She does want to!

1:02:42 > 1:02:45She just doesn't realise it yet, OK?

1:02:47 > 1:02:49If you don't want to be my best man, just say,

1:02:49 > 1:02:51and I can find someone else.

1:02:51 > 1:02:52Ian, I'm not saying that, all right?

1:02:52 > 1:02:54Then help me! I tell you what,

1:02:54 > 1:02:56we get the smaller room at the registry office,

1:02:56 > 1:02:59we're not going to do any food or flowers or anything.

1:02:59 > 1:03:02Just me, Mandy, you, Lucy and Bobby. It'll cost a couple of hundred quid.

1:03:02 > 1:03:05I thought you said you wanted it to be a magical day?

1:03:05 > 1:03:08It will be magical. Just seeing that ring on her finger.

1:03:10 > 1:03:15Max, please, in 48 hours' time I could be stood on that deck,

1:03:15 > 1:03:18sipping champagne, just watching the sunset go down.

1:03:18 > 1:03:22And all this... This stuff with Mandy's mum and the money...

1:03:22 > 1:03:23It'll all be in the past.

1:03:25 > 1:03:26Please, Max.

1:03:26 > 1:03:30You've got to help me get on that ship. With my wife.

1:03:31 > 1:03:32Please.

1:03:34 > 1:03:37Who else have you tried? Beale, have you tried Beale?

1:03:37 > 1:03:38Oh, come on, calm down, please.

1:03:38 > 1:03:41No. You're asking all these different people to help you out

1:03:41 > 1:03:42and I'm right here.

1:03:42 > 1:03:44I've asked someone to help me with my baby,

1:03:44 > 1:03:47I need someone to help, so I offered Whitney a job.

1:03:47 > 1:03:49Whitney, that ex-pro...

1:03:49 > 1:03:51- Stop. What about meal times? - What about meal times?

1:03:51 > 1:03:55I can do meal times. I am available for meal times.

1:03:55 > 1:03:57Yeah, I can come and sit round the table, I can eat dinner.

1:03:57 > 1:04:00- What, like happy families?- Yeah. Just like on the telly, you know.

1:04:00 > 1:04:02All sitting round, eating cornflakes.

1:04:02 > 1:04:05- Oh, please! Don't you think it's just a bit drastic?- Drastic?

1:04:05 > 1:04:08We're having a baby together and you're talking about drastic?

1:04:08 > 1:04:10How about this, look, right...

1:04:12 > 1:04:15Let's have dinner tonight. Just me and you.

1:04:15 > 1:04:17And then I can stay. How about that?

1:04:17 > 1:04:21And I can wake up in the morning, we could have breakfast.

1:04:21 > 1:04:22Then I go to work.

1:04:22 > 1:04:24But then I'd come back, we could have dinner again.

1:04:24 > 1:04:26Then I stay again. See, there's a pattern emerging.

1:04:26 > 1:04:28We could just do that ad infinitum.

1:04:28 > 1:04:31So, like, you accidentally move in?

1:04:31 > 1:04:34Yeah. Yeah, why stop now?

1:04:34 > 1:04:35Go on, girl.

1:04:35 > 1:04:37You know you'd love it.

1:04:43 > 1:04:46I've been looking for you. What's this about you shutting the caff

1:04:46 > 1:04:49- and going out in the street, shouting?- Billy. Buy my car.

1:04:49 > 1:04:51Oh, yeah, like I can afford a new motor.

1:04:51 > 1:04:53- Oi, oi, I'm talking to you. - 500 quid.

1:04:53 > 1:04:56Let me see, I've got... £2.70?

1:04:57 > 1:04:59Oi, why are you doing this?

1:04:59 > 1:05:02I'm going to do this without Max, or Ben, or anyone else.

1:05:02 > 1:05:03- I can do it on my own.- Max?

1:05:03 > 1:05:07Yeah, I'm going to be jetting off to paradise this time tomorrow.

1:05:11 > 1:05:13That's not how it looks in the book, man!

1:05:13 > 1:05:15Oh, what is that disgusting smell?

1:05:15 > 1:05:18What's this? Extreme Cooking?

1:05:18 > 1:05:21A couple of lugs of this, a drizzle of that - I've got vomit.

1:05:21 > 1:05:22Oh, what are you doing?!

1:05:22 > 1:05:24It says, look, the longer you cook it the better,

1:05:24 > 1:05:27- so I thought I'd start early... - No, what are you doing cooking

1:05:27 > 1:05:29chilli con carne for a young girl?

1:05:29 > 1:05:32This is supposed to be a romantic meal.

1:05:32 > 1:05:34Bit of fish. Light pasta dish.

1:05:34 > 1:05:38She's a beautiful young woman, not a rugby prop forward.

1:05:38 > 1:05:40How do you know so much about it then?

1:05:40 > 1:05:41Common sense.

1:05:41 > 1:05:42Oh, you amaze me, you really do.

1:05:42 > 1:05:45I don't know how you've lasted this long.

1:05:45 > 1:05:47Right, bin all this and we'll start from scratch.

1:05:47 > 1:05:50Now, what shall we do? Something fancy...

1:05:51 > 1:05:53Something she'll respond to.

1:05:53 > 1:05:55And you know how to cook, do you?

1:05:55 > 1:05:59When it's the difference between sitting in a cell for a ten stretch

1:05:59 > 1:06:02or learning how to make lasagne, it ain't long before you're pinnied up

1:06:02 > 1:06:05and standing in front of a cooker. Well, do you want me to help you, or don't you?

1:06:05 > 1:06:07I've got a poker game I could be organising.

1:06:07 > 1:06:09Please, please, mate. Help me.

1:06:09 > 1:06:12Good. Right. Let's get down the shops.

1:06:12 > 1:06:14Now, you are the sous chef,

1:06:14 > 1:06:16I am head chef,

1:06:16 > 1:06:18which means that I am in charge,

1:06:18 > 1:06:22and you are nothing but a maggot on the sole of my shoe.

1:06:22 > 1:06:24- There's no change there then! - Well... Come on.

1:06:28 > 1:06:30All right, Phil?

1:06:30 > 1:06:32This about Jay?

1:06:32 > 1:06:35- Ian.- Oh, right.

1:06:35 > 1:06:37Don't bother kicking off, cos I'm done.

1:06:37 > 1:06:39That's it. You know, I don't mind helping him out,

1:06:39 > 1:06:40but I'm not going to lend him money.

1:06:40 > 1:06:42I just want to know what he said to you.

1:06:42 > 1:06:44He said he needed a best man. Which is fine.

1:06:44 > 1:06:47I don't mind picking up the phone, saying a few words,

1:06:47 > 1:06:49but I ain't going to lend him money, Phil, not the state he's in.

1:06:49 > 1:06:51Well, the last I heard Ben was his best man.

1:06:51 > 1:06:54Well, he told me Ben had exams or something, I don't know.

1:06:54 > 1:06:56Still, if Ben wants the job back, that's fine.

1:06:56 > 1:06:58Well, how much short is he?

1:06:58 > 1:07:00500. Not likely, is it?

1:07:00 > 1:07:03Before you know it, you've given him your credit card

1:07:03 > 1:07:05and he's flying her off to Disneyland

1:07:05 > 1:07:07in a Minnie Mouse helicopter.

1:07:07 > 1:07:09Phil, you ain't going to see that money back.

1:07:09 > 1:07:12I don't care. I just want you to do your job properly

1:07:12 > 1:07:14and then Ben can stop worrying about his brother.

1:07:14 > 1:07:17Do me a favour, calm him down before he gets himself sectioned.

1:07:17 > 1:07:21You're going to need more than this, Phil. For the car an' all that.

1:07:21 > 1:07:23I'll sort the car.

1:07:29 > 1:07:31I lost my mum.

1:07:32 > 1:07:36So? What, you want to be best friends now, do you?

1:07:36 > 1:07:38Dead Mums Brigade?

1:07:38 > 1:07:40I was just saying...

1:07:40 > 1:07:42- Right, I'm selling the car. - Stop selling everything!

1:07:42 > 1:07:45- No, everything's falling into place. - I need to get out of here.

1:07:45 > 1:07:49No. You can't. I've got a surprise for you, OK? An announcement.

1:07:49 > 1:07:51- What?- It deserves a bit of ceremony, OK.

1:07:51 > 1:07:54Everything's got to be perfect, hasn't it?

1:07:54 > 1:07:56So, I'm going to go get us a curry and a bottle of wine.

1:07:56 > 1:07:59Look, I promise, everything's got to be perfect, all right?

1:07:59 > 1:08:03Just stay there, yeah? Have you got any money?

1:08:03 > 1:08:04I thought you'd sold the car?

1:08:04 > 1:08:06Make sure she doesn't leave.

1:08:08 > 1:08:10Potato rosti. Sounds well-posh.

1:08:10 > 1:08:13Yeah, and all you've done is fry up a couple of potatoes.

1:08:13 > 1:08:16I'm amazed they had you doing this inside, mate.

1:08:16 > 1:08:20Well, I met this guy, fellow con. Quite a funny story, actually.

1:08:20 > 1:08:21Oh, yeah? Go on.

1:08:21 > 1:08:25Well, I'd been in about a year, right.

1:08:25 > 1:08:27So I get a call up to the warden's office.

1:08:28 > 1:08:30I walk in, he's looking at me,

1:08:30 > 1:08:34he says, "I'm sorry, Branning, it's a Dear John."

1:08:34 > 1:08:35Dear John? What's that?

1:08:35 > 1:08:37It's a letter you get from your missus,

1:08:37 > 1:08:39when she's informing you it's all over.

1:08:39 > 1:08:40Oof! Ouch.

1:08:40 > 1:08:42No greater ouch, mate.

1:08:42 > 1:08:45There's nothing you can do about it on the inside.

1:08:45 > 1:08:47You see, the screws, they all read your mail,

1:08:47 > 1:08:48so he knew what to expect.

1:08:48 > 1:08:50He's looking at me, he goes,

1:08:50 > 1:08:53"Branning, you need the doctor."

1:08:53 > 1:08:56Do you know what he gave me?

1:08:56 > 1:09:00Three sleeping pills. Three sleeping pills for a broken heart.

1:09:00 > 1:09:02Did she give a reason?

1:09:02 > 1:09:05Pain of separation, she put it down to.

1:09:05 > 1:09:07Should have tried it from my side!

1:09:07 > 1:09:09Anyway, couple of days later, a geezer comes up to me.

1:09:09 > 1:09:13Heard I'd had a Dear John. He'd had one the week before.

1:09:13 > 1:09:15What, this is your chef mate, yeah?

1:09:15 > 1:09:19Yeah. We used to sit in my cell, planning our escape.

1:09:19 > 1:09:23How we were going to win our women back in an hail of bullets!

1:09:23 > 1:09:25See? You can do romance!

1:09:25 > 1:09:27And then we realised

1:09:27 > 1:09:30that it was easier to have nothing on the outside.

1:09:30 > 1:09:32And that's when he taught me how to cook.

1:09:32 > 1:09:34Well, thank God for that,

1:09:34 > 1:09:37because this salmon and rosti is going to go down a storm.

1:09:37 > 1:09:39There you go.

1:09:39 > 1:09:43It'll be done soon and then I'm off to the dogs.

1:09:43 > 1:09:44Dogs? I thought you was going poker?

1:09:46 > 1:09:47Yeah, poker.

1:09:50 > 1:09:52- Think I got the shakes. - Let me do it, then...

1:09:52 > 1:09:53I'm joking!

1:09:54 > 1:09:56Did you get on it last night?

1:09:58 > 1:10:00You are going to look so beautiful.

1:10:00 > 1:10:02Tyler's going to do himself a mischief when he sees you.

1:10:02 > 1:10:04Shut up!

1:10:04 > 1:10:06Don't wiggle about, cos I'm going to ruin it.

1:10:06 > 1:10:10Well, hurry up. I know you want a drink at the Vic.

1:10:10 > 1:10:11I like it.

1:10:15 > 1:10:17KNOCKING AT DOOR

1:10:19 > 1:10:21All right, Max?

1:10:21 > 1:10:25- You all right, Mandy? Come in. - Thanks.

1:10:25 > 1:10:28Tanya's still at work, I think. She'll be back soon.

1:10:30 > 1:10:33I'm... I'm sorry, you know, for your loss.

1:10:33 > 1:10:35Have I lost something?

1:10:35 > 1:10:38I'm always doing that.

1:10:38 > 1:10:40My purse...

1:10:40 > 1:10:42car keys...

1:10:42 > 1:10:45You know, anything that's not physically attached to me...

1:10:45 > 1:10:47- SHE SOBS - I'm so sorry.

1:10:47 > 1:10:51It's all right. Come here. Come here.

1:10:51 > 1:10:54Dad, we're just popping out...

1:10:57 > 1:11:00- Come on, Mandy, it's all right. - I'm so sorry.

1:11:00 > 1:11:02It's OK, it's all right. Come here.

1:11:02 > 1:11:04DOOR OPENS

1:11:06 > 1:11:09- How'd they go?- All right.

1:11:09 > 1:11:11I dunno, I missed out a couple of questions.

1:11:11 > 1:11:14- Well, at least they're over. - What about Ian?

1:11:14 > 1:11:17Well, Max is best man, so hopefully it'll keep him in line.

1:11:17 > 1:11:20- Why Max?- He trusts him, I dunno.

1:11:20 > 1:11:22It's always Max. Everywhere I look.

1:11:22 > 1:11:25Well, maybe he'll sort his head out.

1:11:25 > 1:11:27Yeah, maybe he can't.

1:11:27 > 1:11:29I mean, what if... I dunno...

1:11:29 > 1:11:33But what if he makes a call when he's safe on the other side of the world?

1:11:33 > 1:11:38Stop making up all these fantasies, will you? You're as bad as Ian.

1:11:38 > 1:11:39- Is that mine?- Yep.

1:11:39 > 1:11:42I forgot my wallet, you'll have to stick it on the tab.

1:11:42 > 1:11:45You still owe me for the sandwich you didn't let me finish yesterday!

1:11:45 > 1:11:48- What was that worth - a quid? Stick it on the tab.- Oi, hang on! - It's all right. I'll get it.

1:11:53 > 1:11:55Oi!

1:11:56 > 1:11:58What's all that about?

1:11:58 > 1:12:00She wanted a curry. She hasn't eaten all day.

1:12:00 > 1:12:03We need to talk. Cos I ain't having you sailing off and running away.

1:12:03 > 1:12:06- I told you. This time tomorrow I'll be gone.- You ain't going anywhere.

1:12:06 > 1:12:10- You ain't going on no cruise, and you ain't selling your house. - You can't tell me what to do!

1:12:10 > 1:12:13- Me and you, we had a deal, yeah? - Her mum died, OK?

1:12:13 > 1:12:15If I can't convince her to marry me,

1:12:15 > 1:12:18to come on this honeymoon and make a fresh start, then it is over!

1:12:18 > 1:12:20Now, that might suit you,

1:12:20 > 1:12:23but if it is over, then I have got nothing to live for, OK?

1:12:23 > 1:12:25Do you understand me?

1:12:25 > 1:12:27- Ian, mate, just calm down, yeah.? - Mate?!- Just take it easy.

1:12:27 > 1:12:30You've taken on too much, just put something off...

1:12:30 > 1:12:32I haven't taken on too much, it's my life!

1:12:32 > 1:12:35- What about our life?- You threw it away!- Just leave him alone.

1:12:35 > 1:12:38You might think I'm the one who's cracking up, but it's not, OK?

1:12:38 > 1:12:41It's you two that are cracking up.

1:12:41 > 1:12:43Don't worry about me, worry about each other.

1:12:43 > 1:12:45Phil, please! Phil! Please, Phil!

1:12:45 > 1:12:48You're just itching to talk, aren't you? It's just bursting out of you!

1:12:48 > 1:12:50No! I'm not the one who does that, am I?

1:12:50 > 1:12:52Now, Ben... Ben is your brother, yeah?

1:12:52 > 1:12:55And me, I'm like a step-dad. So you and me,

1:12:55 > 1:12:57we're like family, really, aren't we, yeah?

1:12:57 > 1:12:59And betraying your family is the ultimate.

1:12:59 > 1:13:01Betraying your family

1:13:01 > 1:13:04is crossing the line. Do you understand me?

1:13:06 > 1:13:09I won't... I won't.

1:13:09 > 1:13:11I just...

1:13:11 > 1:13:13want to get married.

1:13:15 > 1:13:16It's all I've got left.

1:13:29 > 1:13:31Come on, then. I'll walk you round there.

1:13:31 > 1:13:32I quite like being a chaperone.

1:13:32 > 1:13:35Ha! I'd say more "personal taxi".

1:13:35 > 1:13:37Oi!

1:13:37 > 1:13:40Look at you, smiling from ear to ear.

1:13:40 > 1:13:43Well, I just...

1:13:43 > 1:13:45I never thought I'd get here again.

1:13:45 > 1:13:47What, Albert Square?

1:13:47 > 1:13:49No. You know the...

1:13:49 > 1:13:52You know the butterfly feeling in your tummy?

1:13:52 > 1:13:54SHE SNORTS

1:13:54 > 1:13:59And I have come a long way from all that stuff with Rob.

1:13:59 > 1:14:02Yeah, it's about time someone made a fuss of you,

1:14:02 > 1:14:03cos you're all right.

1:14:03 > 1:14:05Oh, I'm all right, am I?

1:14:05 > 1:14:07Yes. You really are.

1:14:10 > 1:14:12THEY GIGGLE

1:14:12 > 1:14:14Ah, just the man.

1:14:14 > 1:14:17If you've come to tell me I'm on washing-up duty, I've clocked off.

1:14:17 > 1:14:19No, no, no, I've had a word with her. Won't happen again.

1:14:21 > 1:14:23I appreciate that. Thanks, Michael.

1:14:23 > 1:14:27That's all right, Billy. I like you. That's why I wanted to have a word.

1:14:27 > 1:14:28Oh, yeah?

1:14:28 > 1:14:31Yeah. When you bring someone in to any business,

1:14:31 > 1:14:34everything they do, EVERYTHING, reflects on you, yeah?

1:14:34 > 1:14:38If they're great, everybody loves you. If they're terrible...

1:14:39 > 1:14:43I know it's unfair, but that's just the deal of being a worker bee.

1:14:43 > 1:14:47Now I'm a big fan of you, Billy, like I said.

1:14:47 > 1:14:50And that's why I don't want Janine blaming you

1:14:50 > 1:14:51if someone else messes up.

1:14:51 > 1:14:54You need to ask yourself the serious question,

1:14:54 > 1:14:56"Do I feel comfortable having someone like Jean..."

1:14:58 > 1:15:01"..represent me?" Yeah?

1:15:01 > 1:15:05Sorry, sorry, sorry. I'm at sixes and sevens today!

1:15:06 > 1:15:09Oh! That's better, right, OK.

1:15:09 > 1:15:12I'm sorry, I dunno why I came here...

1:15:12 > 1:15:16It's all right. Don't be silly, it's fine.

1:15:16 > 1:15:18What was it, you didn't want to be alone?

1:15:20 > 1:15:23Probably too late for that.

1:15:23 > 1:15:25You grow up a certain way, don't you?

1:15:26 > 1:15:29Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I guess you do, yeah.

1:15:31 > 1:15:35How can you cry for someone you hate?

1:15:35 > 1:15:38Mandy, look it ain't really my place to say but, you know,

1:15:38 > 1:15:42maybe all this is, you know, a chance to move on, innit.

1:15:43 > 1:15:45I need a lot of time to think.

1:15:45 > 1:15:49Well, you know, you'll get that on the cruise, won't you?

1:15:51 > 1:15:53- What cruise?- The honeymoon.

1:15:53 > 1:15:57I weren't meant to say anything. Ian managed to sort the tickets out.

1:15:57 > 1:15:59I think you're going the day after tomorrow.

1:15:59 > 1:16:04Right. So that's what the big announcement's all about.

1:16:04 > 1:16:07Yeah, well, sounds like you could do with a break.

1:16:07 > 1:16:10And you ain't got to worry about the funeral,

1:16:10 > 1:16:11that's all taken care of.

1:16:11 > 1:16:13Who's taken care of it?

1:16:13 > 1:16:14Well, Ian has.

1:16:14 > 1:16:16But I told him, I told him not to bother.

1:16:16 > 1:16:18Well she needs burying, don't she?

1:16:21 > 1:16:25She's my mum, Max! Not yours.

1:16:25 > 1:16:27Not Ian's. She's mine.

1:16:27 > 1:16:30And if I say let her rot in them allotments, then just let her rot!

1:16:34 > 1:16:36Your rosti does not look like Mussolini.

1:16:36 > 1:16:38You don't even know who Mussolini is.

1:16:38 > 1:16:40Yeah, but it's a potato, ain't it!

1:16:44 > 1:16:46Your boy's been cooking up a storm!

1:16:46 > 1:16:48You look beautiful.

1:16:48 > 1:16:50Thanks.

1:16:50 > 1:16:51Please, madam.

1:16:53 > 1:16:54Three plates.

1:16:54 > 1:16:56Careful, they're hot, them.

1:16:56 > 1:17:00Yeah, I thought there was plenty of food, so, you know, I asked Derek.

1:17:00 > 1:17:03Yeah, right, right.

1:17:03 > 1:17:07You know what, it's always the way, innit.

1:17:07 > 1:17:10You do the cooking and you lose your appetite.

1:17:10 > 1:17:12No, there's plenty of food to go round, right, Ty?

1:17:12 > 1:17:15Yeah. Yeah, I mean you've done most of the work, mate.

1:17:15 > 1:17:18Nah.

1:17:18 > 1:17:20I'll grab mine later.

1:17:27 > 1:17:29Right, so it's just us then.

1:17:29 > 1:17:31Yep.

1:17:31 > 1:17:34So, I guess we can switch the romance back on now then, yeah?

1:17:41 > 1:17:45- Tell Mandy I'm dishing up. Just got to lay the table.- She's gone.

1:17:45 > 1:17:46What?

1:17:46 > 1:17:48You booked a funeral?

1:17:48 > 1:17:50It's OK, you haven't left...

1:17:50 > 1:17:52When I asked you, I asked you not to?

1:17:52 > 1:17:54- He was trying to help.- Don't!

1:17:55 > 1:17:58Lucy, just don't. Not with this, all right?

1:17:58 > 1:18:01So what, you think that was going to work, did you?

1:18:01 > 1:18:02Put her in the ground.

1:18:02 > 1:18:05Just sweep her under the carpet and everything goes away?

1:18:05 > 1:18:09No. No, that's not how I saw it in my head, no.

1:18:09 > 1:18:12Mandy, what I thought, right, was, I'd get us a nice curry

1:18:12 > 1:18:14and a bottle of wine,

1:18:14 > 1:18:18I'd set the table nicely, light some candles and then...

1:18:20 > 1:18:21Then I'd give you these.

1:18:23 > 1:18:26Look, I just thought that if we could get married, OK,

1:18:26 > 1:18:29and we can get on the plane,

1:18:29 > 1:18:32a couple of hours, you'd be in paradise.

1:18:33 > 1:18:36Look, there'd be no more caff, no more chippy,

1:18:36 > 1:18:38no more Albert Square, no more being laughed at.

1:18:41 > 1:18:43And I thought, once you were on that ship,

1:18:43 > 1:18:47you'll have time to relax and think and...

1:18:47 > 1:18:52maybe you'd realise then that what your mum said was wrong, OK?

1:18:52 > 1:18:56She's the one who couldn't be loved.

1:18:56 > 1:18:59She's the one who's messed up.

1:18:59 > 1:19:05She wanted it to be you, but it's not you, is it?

1:19:05 > 1:19:07It can't be you. Because...

1:19:07 > 1:19:11Because I love you.

1:19:11 > 1:19:14Look, I just thought that, once we'd buried her, OK...

1:19:16 > 1:19:20..you could start to look forward, instead of always looking back.

1:19:21 > 1:19:25But I don't know how I feel about what's happened.

1:19:27 > 1:19:30You don't need to know how you feel about all that.

1:19:30 > 1:19:33You just need to know how you feel about me.

1:19:38 > 1:19:39Um...

1:19:39 > 1:19:44why don't you set the table for dinner and I'll go and get changed.

1:19:50 > 1:19:52Here she is! My new flatmate.

1:19:52 > 1:19:54Hello.

1:19:54 > 1:19:56Hello. How about a celebratory bitter lemon?

1:19:56 > 1:19:57Lovely, thank you.

1:19:57 > 1:20:00A celebratory bitter lemon?

1:20:00 > 1:20:02We're moving in together.

1:20:02 > 1:20:05Michael, that woman is not a nice woman.

1:20:06 > 1:20:09She's the mother of my unborn child, Jean.

1:20:12 > 1:20:15Well, I've got some news.

1:20:15 > 1:20:17Billy gave me the job!

1:20:17 > 1:20:20So what you said worked.

1:20:20 > 1:20:23He said, us worker bees have to stick together.

1:20:23 > 1:20:25I'm in your debt!

1:20:29 > 1:20:32- There you go.- Thank you.

1:20:32 > 1:20:35I'm going to need a photo of you.

1:20:35 > 1:20:36What for?

1:20:36 > 1:20:37My wallet.

1:20:39 > 1:20:41SHE CHUCKLES

1:20:54 > 1:20:58Well, he certainly knows how to make a girl feel special, doesn't he?

1:20:58 > 1:21:01Oh, yeah, he's upstairs, emptying a bottle of aftershave

1:21:01 > 1:21:03all over himself, as we speak.

1:21:03 > 1:21:06You know, it's going to be so nice,

1:21:06 > 1:21:09not having you around on this honeymoon.

1:21:10 > 1:21:12I'm not going to let you marry my dad.

1:21:14 > 1:21:16Oh, I'm going to marry him.

1:21:16 > 1:21:17Just to ruin your day.

1:21:19 > 1:21:20All set?

1:21:20 > 1:21:21Mm-hm.

1:21:30 > 1:21:32Morning.

1:21:34 > 1:21:36Morning.

1:21:42 > 1:21:45In two hours,

1:21:45 > 1:21:47you will be Mrs Beale.

1:21:50 > 1:21:53You know, I could, um... I could kill a cup of tea.

1:21:53 > 1:21:55Ah, cup of tea.

1:21:55 > 1:21:57Hey presto!

1:21:58 > 1:22:01See? I've thought of everything.

1:22:01 > 1:22:02Thank you.

1:22:02 > 1:22:04Once you've had your cup of tea,

1:22:04 > 1:22:08I'm going to do you a nice, extra-special wedding breakfast,

1:22:08 > 1:22:10of pancakes and syrup -

1:22:10 > 1:22:13just like you said you liked when you were a kid.

1:22:14 > 1:22:16That's really sweet of you.

1:22:18 > 1:22:21I want to treat you nice.

1:22:21 > 1:22:24I want you to have all the things that you've always wanted.

1:22:26 > 1:22:31I don't want you to ever feel scared or lonely or cold, or anything else.

1:22:32 > 1:22:34Not while I'm around.

1:22:37 > 1:22:39You know...

1:22:40 > 1:22:44Ian, you, um... You don't have to try so hard.

1:22:45 > 1:22:47I'm just me,

1:22:47 > 1:22:49I'm nothing special. Just Mandy.

1:22:49 > 1:22:53I mean, we're getting married in a registry office.

1:22:53 > 1:22:55It's hardly Will and Kate.

1:22:55 > 1:22:57We could be getting married in a dustbin

1:22:57 > 1:22:59in the middle of Bridge Street,

1:22:59 > 1:23:01and it would still be the most romantic day of my life.

1:23:52 > 1:23:56Is it going to be a themed wedding? Nightwear?

1:23:56 > 1:23:59- I just got up.- Oh, right.

1:23:59 > 1:24:02Where's the lucky man? He's calmed down a bit, has he?

1:24:02 > 1:24:04Yeah, for a bloke who's going to his own execution,

1:24:04 > 1:24:05he's in a pretty good mindset.

1:24:05 > 1:24:08All right, great. Well, tell him I'm around, will you?

1:24:08 > 1:24:10I've sorted out some drinks at the Vic

1:24:10 > 1:24:11and sorted the car out,

1:24:11 > 1:24:14so, tell him if he needs anything to give me a shout, yeah?

1:24:14 > 1:24:17- Cheers.- How's he doing?

1:24:17 > 1:24:19Yeah, not bad, I think.

1:24:19 > 1:24:23- I'm just going to go and get some cigarettes.- Nervous?- No.

1:24:23 > 1:24:26- Just a craving.- No, is Ian nervous? - I don't know, Phil.

1:24:26 > 1:24:31- I ain't seen him. And your bloke with the Roller, he's definitely still coming?- Yeah, course.

1:24:38 > 1:24:41- Where's your dress?- Upstairs.

1:24:41 > 1:24:45- Oh, right. Do me a favour. Can you go get Bobby ready for me?- Dad!

1:24:45 > 1:24:46Lucy, please.

1:24:46 > 1:24:50Just be a loving, dutiful daughter for once in your life, OK?

1:24:50 > 1:24:51Make me happy. Please.

1:24:51 > 1:24:55- I was going to say I have an exam this afternoon. I've got to be back by one.- Yeah, you will be, OK?

1:24:55 > 1:24:58It's a simple ceremony. In and out, we'll be done in an hour.

1:24:58 > 1:25:00Now, please, just go and get Bobby ready.

1:25:00 > 1:25:02Oh, and give Mandy a shout, as well.

1:25:06 > 1:25:09KNOCK AT DOOR Yeah, come in.

1:25:13 > 1:25:15Do you mind?!

1:25:15 > 1:25:18Poor Dad. It's not a pretty sight.

1:25:18 > 1:25:20Shut the door, will you?

1:25:20 > 1:25:23You know, it's not too late to do a runner.

1:25:23 > 1:25:25- You could always jump out the window.- You know what?

1:25:25 > 1:25:29So could you. I reckon it's about time you left home.

1:25:29 > 1:25:32You know, saw a bit of the big wide world.

1:25:32 > 1:25:34Dad wants you downstairs.

1:25:34 > 1:25:37Special wedding breakfast. Isn't it exciting(?)

1:25:38 > 1:25:41I can keep my mouth shut.

1:25:41 > 1:25:43I will. I have. Phil, I'm not going to say anything.

1:25:43 > 1:25:46- I swear.- I want to believe you, Ian, I really do.

1:25:46 > 1:25:47I've got my head together.

1:25:47 > 1:25:51Because if I can't, I'm going to have to make a decision. I really don't want to do that.

1:25:51 > 1:25:53But it might just come down to that

1:25:53 > 1:25:54You...

1:25:54 > 1:25:57Ben. I have to choose.

1:25:57 > 1:25:59No, you don't.

1:25:59 > 1:26:01You don't have to, Phil. You don't have to choose. I promise you.

1:26:01 > 1:26:03I am 100% reliable.

1:26:03 > 1:26:07Well, I am going to be close

1:26:07 > 1:26:09and I am going to be watching, all right?

1:26:11 > 1:26:13Enjoy the wedding.

1:26:31 > 1:26:33Mandy, Lucy, Bobby - breakfast!

1:26:48 > 1:26:50Whose is that?

1:26:50 > 1:26:52That's Mandy's, innit?

1:26:52 > 1:26:53You are joking?

1:26:53 > 1:26:56I thought Ian was meant to be having cash-flow problems.

1:26:56 > 1:26:58It's a gift, innit? It's from Phil.

1:26:58 > 1:27:00Oh, yeah, right. Of course it is.

1:27:00 > 1:27:04- Because those two love each other so much.- Max!

1:27:04 > 1:27:07Can you give us a hand, darling. I need someone with a head for heights.

1:27:07 > 1:27:09All right, give me a sec.

1:27:11 > 1:27:15Hello, Ian. I'd like a word with you.

1:27:15 > 1:27:18I can't talk now. I'm having a crisis. Lucy. Lucy!

1:27:18 > 1:27:21- What is going on?- Nothing, love. Nothing at all. Hiya.

1:27:21 > 1:27:25- Bride-to-be. You must be really excited.- Yeah. Size six.

1:27:25 > 1:27:28- Why don't you go back upstairs and try it on, love.- What?

1:27:28 > 1:27:31- Please, Just go try it on, for me. Please.- Did you want me?- Go on.

1:27:31 > 1:27:33- Dad?- Yeah, I'll be back in a minute.

1:27:35 > 1:27:37Ooh, strawberries.

1:27:41 > 1:27:43What's the problem?

1:27:43 > 1:27:46You told me you were skint and you've got a white Rolls-Royce

1:27:46 > 1:27:47waiting to take you to the church.

1:27:47 > 1:27:51- Registry office!- Whatever.- A Rolls?

1:27:51 > 1:27:54Don't pretend like you don't know. Ian!

1:27:54 > 1:27:59If you can afford to pay for that, then you can afford to pay me.

1:27:59 > 1:28:01I can...

1:28:01 > 1:28:02What... I can't.

1:28:02 > 1:28:05I didn't pay for that. Just ask Max, he'll explain.

1:28:05 > 1:28:10- Oh, he did. He said Phil bought it as a present. Not likely.- Phil?

1:28:10 > 1:28:12That's what he said.

1:28:12 > 1:28:14Now, I suggest you hand over some cash,

1:28:14 > 1:28:16otherwise I'm going to get really nasty.

1:28:16 > 1:28:19Janine, I can't. I haven't got a penny!

1:28:19 > 1:28:22What, so you can afford that, a wedding, a honeymoon,

1:28:22 > 1:28:23and a fancy dress?

1:28:23 > 1:28:24- It's cleaned me out, OK?- Wrong.

1:28:24 > 1:28:26I'm going to clean you out.

1:28:26 > 1:28:28You're not going to be able to sell that house,

1:28:28 > 1:28:29because I'm going to own it.

1:28:29 > 1:28:34Janine, please. Have a heart, will you? It's my wedding day!

1:28:34 > 1:28:36You're getting married yourself soon, aren't you?

1:28:36 > 1:28:38So, come on, give us a break, yeah?

1:28:38 > 1:28:40No. Remember, Ian,

1:28:40 > 1:28:43I was the girl you paid fifty quid to have sex with.

1:28:43 > 1:28:45When I had no friends, no money,

1:28:45 > 1:28:48you were first in line, and I don't forget things like that.

1:28:48 > 1:28:52So, I want a thousand pounds in cash by five o'clock today,

1:28:52 > 1:28:55otherwise I'm going to call the lawyers.

1:29:01 > 1:29:03Max!

1:29:05 > 1:29:08- Max.- Ian, do you know what time it is?- Yeah.

1:29:08 > 1:29:10That car...

1:29:10 > 1:29:12Janine said Phil paid for it.

1:29:12 > 1:29:14Yeah, yeah, pretty generous an' all.

1:29:14 > 1:29:17- Otherwise you'd be going on a bike, Ian.- He paid for it, yeah?

1:29:17 > 1:29:20- It's a favour. A mate of his. - Right, and that driver?

1:29:20 > 1:29:24- I think he's a mate of Phil's. - I don't like the look of him, Max.

1:29:24 > 1:29:26I really don't like the look of him.

1:29:26 > 1:29:28Well, he's no oil painting, I'll give you that.

1:29:28 > 1:29:29Look, just get rid of him.

1:29:29 > 1:29:33- What?- Just get rid of him. You drive, yeah?- Ian?

1:29:33 > 1:29:37I am not getting in the car with him. I'm just not, OK! I'm not.

1:29:39 > 1:29:41And don't tell Phil, yeah?

1:29:50 > 1:29:52- I'm SO hungry.- No, that's good.

1:29:52 > 1:29:55It's good to have an appetite, it really is.

1:29:55 > 1:29:57But... Just tuck this in here,

1:29:57 > 1:30:01because I don't want you getting anything on your suit, OK? Good lad.

1:30:04 > 1:30:06What are you doing? Why aren't you dressed yet?!

1:30:06 > 1:30:09Why haven't you got your bridesmaid's dress on?

1:30:09 > 1:30:10What's the rush?

1:30:10 > 1:30:13Mandy's ring. Mandy's wedding ring, I put it here.

1:30:13 > 1:30:15It's completely disappeared. Have you taken it?

1:30:15 > 1:30:17No. What do you think I am?

1:30:19 > 1:30:21Where are you going, Dad?

1:30:23 > 1:30:24What are you doing?

1:30:26 > 1:30:29- Where's your mum's wedding ring? - I don't know.

1:30:29 > 1:30:33- Where's Mum's wedding ring, I need... - Dad! Dad!

1:30:33 > 1:30:35Dad. You've got no right.

1:30:35 > 1:30:37Give me that box. That's my stuff. That's my stuff!

1:30:37 > 1:30:39- I need it. I need it.- Give it to me!

1:30:39 > 1:30:41I just need it.

1:30:41 > 1:30:45- That's Mum's. That's Mum's wedding ring.- What's she going to do, complain?- How could you?

1:30:45 > 1:30:48How could you?! Do you think I'm stupid?

1:30:48 > 1:30:50Do you think that ring just miraculously disappeared?

1:30:50 > 1:30:53Bobby, go back in there and I'll deal with you in a minute, OK?

1:30:53 > 1:30:54Please, son. Go back in there.

1:30:54 > 1:30:57Lucy, you took the ring. I know you took the ring!

1:30:57 > 1:30:59- What is going on?- Nothing. Nothing.

1:30:59 > 1:31:02Oh, doesn't she look beautiful? You look so beautiful, love.

1:31:02 > 1:31:03Doesn't she, Lucy? Doesn't she?

1:31:03 > 1:31:06Here, try the bouquet.

1:31:06 > 1:31:08I bet you'll look as pretty as a picture!

1:31:08 > 1:31:10- Lucy!- If you marry that...

1:31:10 > 1:31:12If you marry that, she will destroy your life.

1:31:13 > 1:31:16You just don't stop, do you?

1:31:16 > 1:31:19- He's my dad. He's got no-one else to protect him. - He doesn't need protecting, Lucy.

1:31:19 > 1:31:21He's a grown man.

1:31:21 > 1:31:24What, and you love him, do you? You're head-over-heels?

1:31:24 > 1:31:27Lucy, that is enough, please. That is enough.

1:31:27 > 1:31:30My feelings are my business. Not yours.

1:31:30 > 1:31:34But don't. Don't pretend you care about him, Lucy, cos you don't.

1:31:34 > 1:31:35All you care about is yourself.

1:31:35 > 1:31:39You don't understand. You don't understand what he's been through.

1:31:39 > 1:31:44- You think you're so different from the others! What makes YOU so different?- Lucy, that's enough, OK?

1:31:44 > 1:31:47I need you to put your bridesmaid's dress on. Go and put your dress on.

1:31:47 > 1:31:49- I'll go and put my suit on, OK?- Dad.

1:31:49 > 1:31:52Please. Don't do this. She'll hurt you. Look at her.

1:31:52 > 1:31:54You can see it in her eyes.

1:31:54 > 1:31:56Mum broke your heart and you never recovered.

1:31:56 > 1:31:58Never.

1:31:58 > 1:32:00Mel was hot, blonde, bit like Mum.

1:32:00 > 1:32:04Laura, she was just a safe bet, nice. Jane was the same.

1:32:04 > 1:32:07But now you're trying it with her. Look at her.

1:32:07 > 1:32:09LOOK at her! She's a scuzzy, second-rate version

1:32:09 > 1:32:11of my beautiful mother

1:32:11 > 1:32:13and it ain't going to make you happy.

1:32:13 > 1:32:15No-one will make you happy like Mum did!

1:32:15 > 1:32:17No, your mum did not make me happy.

1:32:17 > 1:32:19- She did not make me happy, OK? - But you loved her.

1:32:19 > 1:32:21You loved her till it drove you mad.

1:32:21 > 1:32:22No, no, no, no!

1:32:22 > 1:32:25Stop talking about your mum, please, OK? Don't talk about any of them.

1:32:25 > 1:32:27All of them, they were just a mistake, all right?

1:32:27 > 1:32:30Mandy is the right woman for me, OK? She is the right woman for me.

1:32:30 > 1:32:31I adore her, she adores me

1:32:31 > 1:32:35and we are going to be very happy together. Aren't we? Aren't we?

1:32:35 > 1:32:37- She can't even answer.- Aren't we?

1:32:39 > 1:32:41Yes, Ian.

1:32:41 > 1:32:43You see?

1:32:43 > 1:32:44Now, come on, let's just...

1:32:44 > 1:32:46I got a ring, let just try it on, yeah.

1:32:46 > 1:32:48- That's it.- What you doing? - It's a new ring, OK?

1:32:48 > 1:32:49- Let's see if it fits. - It's Mum's ring.- No.

1:32:49 > 1:32:52- Don't listen to her, please. - Ian, please! Ow. OW!

1:32:52 > 1:32:53Right, it's perfect, OK.

1:32:53 > 1:32:55Now, you finish, go and get ready.

1:32:55 > 1:32:57Go and put your dress on. I'm going to put my suit on.

1:32:57 > 1:33:01- Then we'll go to the registry office. - Ian, it's not even time. - We'll go early and wait, OK?

1:33:01 > 1:33:03No! I'm not going to let you do this.

1:33:03 > 1:33:05You're going to have to choose.

1:33:05 > 1:33:06It's me or her. You have to choose.

1:33:06 > 1:33:09You can't make me do that.

1:33:09 > 1:33:10You can't make me do that.

1:33:10 > 1:33:12Peter don't want to know.

1:33:12 > 1:33:14Do you really want me gone too?

1:33:14 > 1:33:17Dad, I'm your little girl. We don't need her. We're a family.

1:33:19 > 1:33:22Please, Dad. You're going to have to choose.

1:33:22 > 1:33:25I can't.

1:33:25 > 1:33:27- You have to.- No.

1:33:27 > 1:33:28Ian, it's OK. You can say.

1:33:28 > 1:33:31- No, no, no, I can't. I can't.- Choose!

1:33:31 > 1:33:34Ian, choose.

1:33:45 > 1:33:47I choose Mandy.

1:33:49 > 1:33:51- What?!- I choose Mandy.

1:33:51 > 1:33:54- You can't.- No, I've chosen Mandy. - I'm your daughter.

1:33:55 > 1:33:58No, that's it. That's all of it.

1:33:58 > 1:34:00I have. I've chosen Mandy, OK?

1:34:00 > 1:34:05- I'll go. I'll leave. I mean it. You'll never see me again! - Fine, go! Just get out of here.

1:34:05 > 1:34:07Just take your coat and your bag, and just go.

1:34:07 > 1:34:09Go, Lucy. Just go.

1:34:09 > 1:34:12Dad! Dad! Dad! What are you doing?

1:34:12 > 1:34:14Look, just take this, it's all I got left.

1:34:14 > 1:34:17No. Dad, you're mad. You're sick.

1:34:22 > 1:34:23Dad...

1:34:27 > 1:34:29- Where's Lucy gone?- She's gone out.

1:34:31 > 1:34:34Right, come on, Mand, let's get going.

1:34:34 > 1:34:37My bouquet... It's ruined.

1:34:37 > 1:34:42That's OK. No, it's fine. Look, I can fix it. I can. I can fix it.

1:34:42 > 1:34:46No, no, you can't. You can't.

1:34:46 > 1:34:49It's just a bouquet, OK. We don't actually need it. Come on, let's...

1:34:49 > 1:34:51Ian, I haven't got a bouquet and I haven't got a bridesmaid.

1:34:51 > 1:34:54I just think, you know, maybe we need to rethink all this, because...

1:34:54 > 1:34:57No, no, it's all right. It's all right. Just calm down.

1:34:57 > 1:35:00- I'll get another bouquet. I'll be back, promise. - You're not even dressed!

1:35:00 > 1:35:02Everything's fine, OK. Everything's perfect.

1:35:04 > 1:35:06Don't get your suit dirty.

1:35:10 > 1:35:12Stick some flowers together - anything.

1:35:12 > 1:35:14I'll get you the money. I'll be back.

1:35:21 > 1:35:23Tanya, where's Max?

1:35:23 > 1:35:25- He's getting the car, I think. - I need money.

1:35:25 > 1:35:27Nice sarnies.

1:35:27 > 1:35:30- She's really upset.- Luce? Luce?

1:35:30 > 1:35:32- That money I gave you earlier, where is it?- What?

1:35:32 > 1:35:33Where's that money? I need it.

1:35:33 > 1:35:36- What is wrong with you?! - Is it in there?

1:35:36 > 1:35:39- Will you calm down? - Thank you for sticking your nose in. I- beg your pardon...

1:35:39 > 1:35:42I just spent the last half-hour putting these decorations up.

1:35:42 > 1:35:44I never asked you to. It looks pathetic.

1:35:44 > 1:35:47I don't want it. All I want to do is get married. Lucy, where's the money. Thanks.

1:35:47 > 1:35:50- Ian! Come outside.- No.

1:35:50 > 1:35:51No, I'm not going anywhere with you.

1:35:51 > 1:35:54I know what you're playing at. I've seen that driver of yours

1:35:54 > 1:35:56- and I'm not going with him. - Come outside.- No!

1:35:56 > 1:35:59Get your hands off me. Otherwise I'll tell everyone what you've done.

1:35:59 > 1:36:02What you both did, OK? How'd you like that, eh? You'd like that?

1:36:02 > 1:36:05I think you've been on the bubbly already, ain't you?

1:36:05 > 1:36:07You go and have a good time, mate, all right.

1:36:07 > 1:36:08Yeah, I'm going to.

1:36:08 > 1:36:11Cos pretty soon I'm going to be happily married.

1:36:11 > 1:36:12Just you wait and see.

1:36:12 > 1:36:14Just wait and see.

1:36:16 > 1:36:18Ian, I've sorted out another motor.

1:36:18 > 1:36:19Just keep the engine running.

1:36:22 > 1:36:24There you go. Keep the change.

1:36:30 > 1:36:32In a minute, OK? In a minute.

1:36:34 > 1:36:36Mandy?

1:36:36 > 1:36:37Mandy!

1:36:49 > 1:36:51What you doing?

1:36:51 > 1:36:54You need to get dressed. You need to put your dress on.

1:36:56 > 1:36:59I'm not going to be getting changed, Ian.

1:36:59 > 1:37:01Look. I've got you a bouquet. Here. Take it.

1:37:01 > 1:37:03Ian.

1:37:05 > 1:37:07I'm going.

1:37:08 > 1:37:10What?

1:37:11 > 1:37:13You better take this.

1:37:13 > 1:37:15No. I can't. It's yours. You need to put it on.

1:37:15 > 1:37:17We don't have to wait till the registry office.

1:37:17 > 1:37:20- Ian...- Look, it'll go on. - I don't want it on!

1:37:20 > 1:37:21Do you understand?

1:37:21 > 1:37:23Why not?

1:37:23 > 1:37:25I don't want that ring on my finger.

1:37:26 > 1:37:27Why not?

1:37:28 > 1:37:30Are you really that blind?

1:37:30 > 1:37:33Look at you.

1:37:33 > 1:37:35Look at us.

1:37:35 > 1:37:36- What I've done to you.- No.

1:37:36 > 1:37:39No, I'm fine.

1:37:39 > 1:37:41I'm fine.

1:37:41 > 1:37:44I've just been a bit busy, you know, what with one thing and another.

1:37:44 > 1:37:45I just got a little bit...

1:37:45 > 1:37:47Look, I just need to get changed, OK?

1:37:47 > 1:37:49It'll take me ten minutes. Maybe five.

1:37:49 > 1:37:52Yeah, I'll do that. Just wait there. You'll see.

1:37:52 > 1:37:55Ian, I won't be here when you come back down.

1:37:56 > 1:37:57No, you will.

1:37:57 > 1:37:59You will.

1:37:59 > 1:38:01No, I won't. I'm going.

1:38:01 > 1:38:03I mean it.

1:38:05 > 1:38:07You can't.

1:38:07 > 1:38:09No, you can't.

1:38:09 > 1:38:11Because I love you.

1:38:11 > 1:38:13I want... I want to marry you.

1:38:14 > 1:38:17Well, I don't feel the same.

1:38:20 > 1:38:23Was it... Was it something I did?

1:38:23 > 1:38:25Was it something I said? No.

1:38:25 > 1:38:26Was it something Lucy said?

1:38:26 > 1:38:28If it was something Lucy said,

1:38:28 > 1:38:30you can't pay any attention, because she's just a selfish brat.

1:38:30 > 1:38:33She is. She is just a selfish brat.

1:38:33 > 1:38:36You just chucked your daughter out the house, Ian.

1:38:36 > 1:38:38Is it because I hesitated?

1:38:38 > 1:38:40Is that it? Is it? But I had to.

1:38:40 > 1:38:42I had to. Just think, OK?

1:38:42 > 1:38:44Cos Lucy...

1:38:44 > 1:38:46I wanted you. I did.

1:38:46 > 1:38:48I wanted you.

1:38:48 > 1:38:50Why?

1:38:50 > 1:38:51Why do you want me?

1:38:53 > 1:38:55What do you think I'm going to do?

1:38:55 > 1:38:57Solve all your problems? Make you happy?

1:38:57 > 1:39:00Make YOU feel better about yourself?

1:39:00 > 1:39:03Yeah, yeah, you have. You will. You do.

1:39:03 > 1:39:05No, Ian. I won't.

1:39:05 > 1:39:07You think I will.

1:39:07 > 1:39:09You know, you hope I will.

1:39:09 > 1:39:12You know, you think you'll stick that ring on my finger

1:39:12 > 1:39:15and everything's going to be OK, you're whole world will change.

1:39:16 > 1:39:19But it won't, Ian. It won't.

1:39:19 > 1:39:22Because you'll still be middle-aged.

1:39:24 > 1:39:28And I will still be empty...

1:39:28 > 1:39:29and disgusting

1:39:29 > 1:39:32and a complete waste of space.

1:39:32 > 1:39:36- No, no, why are you saying that? - Because it's true, Ian. It's true.

1:39:36 > 1:39:38I've been here before.

1:39:38 > 1:39:40You know, this close to getting married, and I never do it.

1:39:40 > 1:39:42And do you want to know why?

1:39:42 > 1:39:47It's because I don't want anybody that close to me,

1:39:47 > 1:39:51I don't want people to see me for who I really am.

1:39:51 > 1:39:53Look, I've been that close to you, haven't I?

1:39:53 > 1:39:55I like you. I like what I see.

1:39:55 > 1:39:57What? What is that, Ian?

1:39:57 > 1:40:00Some second-rate version of Cindy?

1:40:00 > 1:40:02No. No. No. That was just Lucy spouting off, OK?

1:40:02 > 1:40:04That was Lucy, OK? That's not true. That is not true.

1:40:04 > 1:40:07Ian, the truth is

1:40:07 > 1:40:11you don't see me at all.

1:40:11 > 1:40:13You don't.

1:40:13 > 1:40:15You know, I'm just the girl.

1:40:15 > 1:40:21I'm just the girl that you could never get when you were sixteen.

1:40:22 > 1:40:26You know, the girl that would never look at you.

1:40:26 > 1:40:28You know, the one that always went off with the fit bloke.

1:40:28 > 1:40:32But now you think you can get me, Ian.

1:40:32 > 1:40:36You think you can wrap me up and keep me all to yourself

1:40:36 > 1:40:38with your house and your money.

1:40:38 > 1:40:40But you can't, Ian. You can't.

1:40:40 > 1:40:42Because it doesn't work, you know?

1:40:42 > 1:40:43It doesn't work upstairs

1:40:43 > 1:40:46and it ain't working downstairs either.

1:40:46 > 1:40:48No, look.

1:40:48 > 1:40:50Look, I know I've had some problems in the bedroom.

1:40:50 > 1:40:53I know, but it's stress, OK? It's stress, all right? I'm fine.

1:40:53 > 1:40:55I am fine. I'll go see a doctor. I will.

1:40:55 > 1:40:57No, Ian.

1:40:57 > 1:41:02Darling, you don't need to go and see a doctor.

1:41:02 > 1:41:06You just need someone that loves you as much as...

1:41:06 > 1:41:07As much as you love them.

1:41:10 > 1:41:14I really care about you, I do.

1:41:14 > 1:41:16You're a good bloke.

1:41:16 > 1:41:22Underneath it all, you're sweet and you're vulnerable.

1:41:22 > 1:41:25You're a bit messed up, you know, like me.

1:41:28 > 1:41:29But we don't fit.

1:41:31 > 1:41:34We don't.

1:41:34 > 1:41:36And you know it.

1:41:40 > 1:41:42Don't go.

1:41:44 > 1:41:47Please, don't go.

1:41:48 > 1:41:50I can't.

1:41:52 > 1:41:54I can't get it all wrong again.

1:42:01 > 1:42:02Sorry.

1:42:21 > 1:42:23Please. Please!
