0:00:35 > 0:00:36Couldn't sleep?

0:00:36 > 0:00:40Just got a lot on at the Arches, that's all.

0:00:40 > 0:00:41Yeah, I can see.

0:00:41 > 0:00:43You know, you were right, what you said.

0:00:43 > 0:00:47It doesn't matter where she lives, you're still going to be her granddad.

0:00:47 > 0:00:50Everything's going to be exactly the same.

0:00:50 > 0:00:51Just a bit quieter, that's all...

0:00:51 > 0:00:54With him in the house? I don't think so.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58Denny, if you're awake, can you come and get your breakfast, please?

0:01:03 > 0:01:07Lexi's going to be just round the corner, and we'll all still be here.

0:01:07 > 0:01:11So nothing's going to change, babe, not really.

0:01:11 > 0:01:12See you in a bit.

0:01:24 > 0:01:25DOOR SLAMS

0:01:33 > 0:01:35Sharon.

0:01:35 > 0:01:36Here.

0:01:36 > 0:01:37Ta.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39Do you want me to have a word?

0:01:39 > 0:01:43No breakfast, no going out on his new bike?

0:01:43 > 0:01:44Yeah, that'd be great.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49- You all right? - Freezing out here, ain't it?

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Got your message - messages. What's so urgent?

0:01:55 > 0:01:59I need you to call in on this lot. And these.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02I saw cleaning vehicles outside both of them over the weekend,

0:02:02 > 0:02:04so please can you make sure they've got our cards

0:02:04 > 0:02:07and that they know there is an introductory discount.

0:02:07 > 0:02:09And what about the office?

0:02:09 > 0:02:10It'll take ten minutes.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12- In a Batmobile, maybe. - BABY CRIES

0:02:12 > 0:02:15Hang on! I thought you were getting her settled.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17- Yeah, just forgot my phone. - You're kidding me!

0:02:17 > 0:02:19- I'll be two minutes. - Make that one.

0:02:20 > 0:02:21Useless.

0:02:23 > 0:02:25- Are you still here? - DOOR SLAMS

0:02:25 > 0:02:28Janine, she's your nanny. Not your lackey.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30I don't treat her like a lackey.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Look, I ain't got any choice, I have to put up with you.

0:02:33 > 0:02:34Alice doesn't.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36BABY CRIES

0:02:36 > 0:02:40You don't really want to lose her, do you?

0:02:40 > 0:02:42Later.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44BABY CONTINUES TO CRY

0:02:46 > 0:02:48Thanks, cheers.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52- Oh, hello.- Hey.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54You all right?

0:02:54 > 0:02:55Can I get a coffee to go, please?

0:02:55 > 0:02:58So... Jack's back?

0:02:58 > 0:03:01- Oh. Is he? - You haven't seen him?

0:03:01 > 0:03:03- No. Have you?- No.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06I probably got it wrong, I thought I saw him in the flat.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09Maybe Max just went round to move the post for him or something.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12- Maybe.- I'll catch you later, yeah? - Yeah, see you.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15- Come on, move it! - Yes, all right!

0:03:20 > 0:03:25Joe! Joey, you couldn't give us a hand with this mate, could you?

0:03:25 > 0:03:28- Right, come on then, come on. - Thanks, Ty.- Cheers, brother.

0:03:30 > 0:03:34Oi, Luce, don't think you're getting away with it - come on!

0:03:34 > 0:03:36- Don't think you're getting away neither.- Thanks, girls.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41- You all right? - Yeah. Why shouldn't I be?

0:03:41 > 0:03:45Ready, yeah? Come on, three, two, one...go.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48CHEERING

0:03:48 > 0:03:50APPLAUSE

0:03:51 > 0:03:53ENGINE STARTS

0:03:59 > 0:04:02HORN TOOTS

0:04:22 > 0:04:24All right, Abs?

0:04:24 > 0:04:25What you doing today?

0:04:25 > 0:04:27Lauren, I've...

0:04:27 > 0:04:28I mean, after revision.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30I was going to see a film...

0:04:30 > 0:04:32Maybe we could both go together?

0:04:32 > 0:04:34Yeah. Yeah, that'd be really nice.

0:04:35 > 0:04:36Just me and you. Yeah?

0:04:37 > 0:04:40Yeah. OK. Bye.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42See you later.

0:04:46 > 0:04:51- I promise I'll bring 'em back. - Thank you.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54Can I have a coffee, please? Take out.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57Hey. I'll get that.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59Quick as you can, yeah. And I'm paying for it.

0:04:59 > 0:05:02- Dexter... - Hold on, you talking to me?

0:05:02 > 0:05:04- Yeah. - Are you actually talking to me?

0:05:04 > 0:05:08- Dexter, please. - Dexter. Calm down.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16Why don't you sling your hook? You're not wanted round here.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23You've got to stand up to her. She's a textbook tyrant.

0:05:23 > 0:05:27When you do, you'll find out - just like the rest, they collapse.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30Or I could just save myself all this grief completely.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32I'm not sure I understand that.

0:05:32 > 0:05:36It's not just the way she speaks to me, she never leaves me alone.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Minute I leave that place, she's on the phone.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40- Good.- What's good? That I'm being run ragged?

0:05:40 > 0:05:43- No. That she's beginning to rely on you.- Dump on me, more like.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46And the more she does, the more you can get her to do what you want.

0:05:46 > 0:05:48What YOU want, you mean.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Oh, like that, is it?

0:05:50 > 0:05:53I don't understand this tone. I thought we were doing this for Scarlett.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57You and me, both in it together, that's what this is all about. Isn't it?

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Yeah, sorry.

0:05:59 > 0:06:00It's all right.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04Best get back to it though, yeah.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09And remember...

0:06:09 > 0:06:11- Stand up to bullies.- Yeah.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20So he's still here, yeah, Mum?

0:06:20 > 0:06:23- Is he?- Yeah. He just came up to me in the cafe. Tried to buy me this!

0:06:23 > 0:06:26Did you not know he was coming back? Or is this another thing you didn't want to tell me?

0:06:26 > 0:06:30- I thought it was for the best. - What, me looking an idiot in front of everyone?

0:06:30 > 0:06:32How was I going to feel when I found out who he was?

0:06:32 > 0:06:34- I wanted to kill him. - You weren't supposed to find out.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37- And everything I don't know isn't going to hurt me?- That's right.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Look, at least give me some credit for being honest.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41About what, Mum? Not telling the truth?

0:06:41 > 0:06:44- Yes.- Look, is there anything else going on between you two?

0:06:44 > 0:06:47- Like what?- Unfinished business? You know what I mean!- Yeah.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Me waving goodbye to him. For good.

0:07:01 > 0:07:02DOOR OPENS

0:07:04 > 0:07:07All right? Seen who's back?

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Saw him as I was coming past the Vic his morning.

0:07:09 > 0:07:13- Who?- That chancer who came in last week with the cut-price booze.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16Reckons he's got an even better deal for us this week.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18Asked if he could speak to one of the bosses. So?

0:07:18 > 0:07:20Do you want to see him?

0:07:22 > 0:07:25Hello? Sharon, do you want to see him or not?

0:07:25 > 0:07:28Yeah. Yeah, tell him to come in about four. Yeah?

0:07:28 > 0:07:31Don't blame me if he's a timewaster, will ya?

0:07:31 > 0:07:32Lot of them about.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40What are you doing, Sam?

0:07:40 > 0:07:44Why are you still here and why are you hassling Dexter?

0:07:44 > 0:07:46This place needed a bit more work.

0:07:46 > 0:07:49And I'm not hassling him,

0:07:49 > 0:07:54- I was just trying to... - Don't you understand that we don't want to know?

0:07:54 > 0:07:56And we don't care.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59I don't want to leave without at least trying to make things better.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03And in the meantime? All the damage you're going to cause?

0:08:04 > 0:08:10How can I? You just told me. You don't care.

0:08:10 > 0:08:14I can't do it, Ava. I can't just go with things like this.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26Well?

0:08:26 > 0:08:28I left some cards. Like you said.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30And?

0:08:30 > 0:08:33Did anyone say anything? Or show any interest?

0:08:33 > 0:08:35One bloke said thanks.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37Janine, you asked me to leave some cards.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39You didn't ask me to give it the hard sell.

0:08:41 > 0:08:45Blimey, there's no pleasing some people, is there, no matter what you do.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48Actually, I've been thinking about what you said earlier.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51About me imposing on people.

0:08:51 > 0:08:53Maybe you're right.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56So I've decided a little show of appreciation might be in order.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58Yeah. That's good.

0:08:58 > 0:09:01- So I'll need you to babysit. - Do what?

0:09:01 > 0:09:03I've asked Alice to lunch.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05Hi!

0:09:05 > 0:09:09No, you haven't...asked me. Pretty much told me.

0:09:09 > 0:09:14Well, I'm sure Janine can ask, Alice. Can't you, Janine?

0:09:14 > 0:09:15- Well...- Nicely?

0:09:17 > 0:09:21Alice, would you like to come for lunch with me?

0:09:21 > 0:09:22Yeah.

0:09:25 > 0:09:26Here she is.

0:09:39 > 0:09:40Jack?

0:09:45 > 0:09:48- Sharon. - I heard you were back.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51Yeah, I had a leak, had to get a plumber in.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55Maybe I should have called you.

0:09:55 > 0:09:57Why, did you think I'd see you and faint?

0:09:57 > 0:10:00No, course not.

0:10:01 > 0:10:04It's just - I know it's awkward.

0:10:04 > 0:10:07And that's how you feel, is it? Awkward?

0:10:07 > 0:10:08Well, yeah.

0:10:08 > 0:10:13Well, I don't. So let's get this over with, shall we?

0:10:13 > 0:10:14What happened, happened.

0:10:15 > 0:10:19It wasn't pleasant but we can't exactly change it now, can we?

0:10:19 > 0:10:22And I wouldn't really want to change it.

0:10:22 > 0:10:26- I'm with Phil now.- Yeah, I called Max, he said you were staying there.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29No. I'm WITH Phil. Started out as a mates thing,

0:10:29 > 0:10:33a place for me and Denny to crash. Then things just developed.

0:10:34 > 0:10:35I see.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38So you sorted out what you wanted to sort out before you went away.

0:10:38 > 0:10:40And now I've done the same. Oh...

0:10:42 > 0:10:44Your keys, I believe.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46So, as you can see,

0:10:46 > 0:10:49there's no need for any awkwardness or unpleasantness. OK?

0:10:49 > 0:10:52- No, of course.- Good.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14Don't know what's wrong with me today.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16Thought I forgot my phone an' all.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50- New line? - What?- Childminding.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53No, it's an old one. The oldest one of 'em all.

0:11:53 > 0:11:58- Dogsbody.- You want to do what I'm doing, babe.- What, poke my nose in where it ain't wanted?

0:11:58 > 0:12:02No. Become your own boss. Answerable to nobody.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06The boss of nothing. Employer of no-one. Yeah, sounds great.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08I'm actually turning punters away at the B&B right now.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11Environmental Health paid you another visit, have they?

0:12:11 > 0:12:14Always in the market for more punters, Billy, so...

0:12:14 > 0:12:18You work in offices, offices have office workers... Pass it on, yeah?

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Thanks.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23What, for a pipe? You having a laugh?

0:12:28 > 0:12:32It's OK. I've already heard it from Sharon.

0:12:32 > 0:12:33You and her. Happy ever after.

0:12:35 > 0:12:36I'll leave you to it.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40Couldn't have put it better myself.

0:12:48 > 0:12:53- So, if you could leave a few at the bar?- So what's in it for us?

0:12:53 > 0:12:56Well, what do you have in mind?

0:12:56 > 0:12:58You scratch our backs, you know...

0:12:59 > 0:13:04Excuse me, my mass...mass...massage woman has very delicate hands.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07Maybe you could put a good word in for us with their clients -

0:13:07 > 0:13:11nice relaxing meal after a little rub-down?

0:13:12 > 0:13:15What, like, I scratch your back, you scratch mine?

0:13:15 > 0:13:19- Sounds good to me. - Yeah. Sounds good to me.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21- See you later. - See you later.

0:13:27 > 0:13:28Wine?

0:13:28 > 0:13:30I'm all right with just water.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33- You don't like wine? - I do like wine.- Good.

0:13:33 > 0:13:34White, please, for both of us.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36I'm looking after Scarlett later.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39- Oh, yeah. - Before dropping her back to you.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42Yes. Water, please, for both of us.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48Well, I have got us a selection of starters.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53Yeah, I think I'm just going to have a main.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57Alice, this is my way of thanking you.

0:13:57 > 0:14:01- For everything you're doing with Scarlett.- You don't have to thank me, I enjoy it.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04- She's an angel. - Unlike her mum?

0:14:06 > 0:14:08That is the part where you're supposed to say,

0:14:08 > 0:14:11"No, no, no, of course not," by the way.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29So?

0:14:30 > 0:14:32- Why didn't you tell me? - Tell you what?

0:14:32 > 0:14:37About Jack. Thought you might have mentioned the fact your husband-to-be was back on the manor.

0:14:37 > 0:14:41Ex-husband-to-be. So what?

0:14:41 > 0:14:44He was going to come back sooner or later, weren't he?

0:14:44 > 0:14:48- Sharon, if there's something I need to know...- Like what?

0:14:48 > 0:14:51Like why you went to see him, for starters.

0:14:51 > 0:14:54I didn't go to see him, I just ran across him, on the Square.

0:14:54 > 0:14:58Well, according to him you really laid it on the line about me and you, how he ought to stay away.

0:14:58 > 0:15:02Yeah. Because I wanted to get everything straight. Right from the start.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04I'm with you. End of story.

0:15:05 > 0:15:08What about Dennis? Does he know he's back?

0:15:08 > 0:15:10He'll be fine.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13He's got what he's always wanted,

0:15:13 > 0:15:16a family, a proper family.

0:15:16 > 0:15:18Like I've got the bloke I want, too.

0:15:27 > 0:15:29I just think it's a bit odd.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31You not saying anything.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38CHATTER

0:15:42 > 0:15:45Kim? Kim, been thinking.

0:15:45 > 0:15:47Easy, Billy. Don't want to injure yourself.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50No, no, we could help each other out, couldn't we?

0:15:50 > 0:15:52Must be really hard running that B&B.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55All that washing sheets and cleaning?

0:15:55 > 0:15:57Why would you want to do that, eh?

0:15:57 > 0:16:01When you've got a cleaning firm, right on your doorstep?

0:16:01 > 0:16:02Think about it, yeah?

0:16:07 > 0:16:09Thank you.

0:16:09 > 0:16:13So did Michael give you a pep talk?

0:16:13 > 0:16:15How do you mean?

0:16:15 > 0:16:20You...you just seem different since you came back.

0:16:20 > 0:16:21Sorry.

0:16:21 > 0:16:25He just told me I should stand up for myself a bit more.

0:16:25 > 0:16:27Not just walk away at the first sign of trouble.

0:16:27 > 0:16:31- Walk away? - Be a bit more like you, I suppose.

0:16:31 > 0:16:35Yeah, I can't imagine Michael holding me up as any sort of a role model.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37He must have once.

0:16:38 > 0:16:41That was a really, really long time ago.

0:16:41 > 0:16:44Still, maybe his luck's changing, eh?

0:16:44 > 0:16:47- Hmm?- There's him and Kat now, isn't there?

0:16:47 > 0:16:49I don't think so.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51Maybe I was wrong.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53Do you hope so?

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Do you actually like any of this?

0:16:56 > 0:16:57Yeah.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02OK. I probably should've told you from the start. I like plain food.

0:17:04 > 0:17:05I'm not too keen, either.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09CHATTER, GLASSES CLINK

0:17:09 > 0:17:11THEY LAUGH

0:17:16 > 0:17:18PHONE RINGS

0:17:35 > 0:17:37Sharon - you've had your say. Can I have mine?

0:17:37 > 0:17:40Not sure what else there is to say, but go on.

0:17:40 > 0:17:44Yes, I dreaded coming back. Yes, I didn't know if I should.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47I really didn't want to hurt you any more than I have.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50Difficult to imagine.

0:17:50 > 0:17:54I could have bottled it, could've got Max to sort out that leak,

0:17:54 > 0:17:59but now I'm here, I just want to say to you I'm really happy for you.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02And I hope Phil makes you happy, too.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05I really hope something good can come from this at least.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20- Can you fix it?- No.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24You can. Come on.

0:18:36 > 0:18:37PHONE RINGS

0:18:41 > 0:18:44- Hello?- Janine, how much longer are you going to be?

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Billy, you were the one that told me to do all this in the first place.

0:18:46 > 0:18:49What are you doing, putting on a lunch or a flaming banquet?

0:18:49 > 0:18:52Oh, a banquet. Definitely a banquet.

0:18:55 > 0:18:56BABY GRIZZLES

0:18:59 > 0:19:02- Bacon bap banquet, baby. - Ooh, yum.

0:19:05 > 0:19:06So....

0:19:06 > 0:19:09You know what you were saying about walking out, first sign of trouble?

0:19:09 > 0:19:12- Yeah.- Were you really going to quit on me?

0:19:12 > 0:19:16Wouldn't just be you, would it? It'd be Scarlett as well. And I'd hate that.

0:19:16 > 0:19:19Don't let her mother know. She'd have you over a barrel.

0:19:19 > 0:19:21What, that cow? Not saying a word.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Hey. Done what I can for now, OK?

0:19:31 > 0:19:34Here, Tan - who's that?

0:19:34 > 0:19:36Saw him with Ava earlier.

0:19:36 > 0:19:40- Dexter's dad.- Her ex? - Yeah. Mum was just telling me.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45- Dexter's in a right state apparently.- He won't be here long.

0:19:45 > 0:19:46Not if he's got any sense.

0:19:48 > 0:19:53OK. Maybe - maybe - you've got yourself a deal.

0:19:53 > 0:19:56So, here's what's going to happen.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58Right. I'm going to see you in the Vic later.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01And you're going to buy me a drink, you're going to tell me

0:20:01 > 0:20:03how much you'll charge and I'm going to have a laugh.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06Then I'm going to tell you how much I'm going to pay.

0:20:06 > 0:20:07- I can't do later on.- What?

0:20:07 > 0:20:11Oh, no more child-minding stuff, Billy! Oh, come on, get a grip.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13I was starting to be impressed by you.

0:20:13 > 0:20:14No, I'm...

0:20:14 > 0:20:15What?

0:20:15 > 0:20:17- Seeing someone... - You got a date?

0:20:17 > 0:20:20No. Well...sort of.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23What sort of a date is a "sort of" date?

0:20:23 > 0:20:25Beginning to wonder myself, as it happens.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37- Cheers, Trace. - Lets you off the hook, don't it?

0:20:37 > 0:20:39- What?- Me and Phil.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41Now you don't need to feel guilty any more.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44Now you can think, that's OK, it was probably for the best anyway.

0:20:44 > 0:20:48- That wasn't why I said all that. - Doesn't matter what I did, or what pain I caused,

0:20:48 > 0:20:51it was all right in the end, so what does it matter?

0:20:51 > 0:20:53Where's this coming from, eh? I meant what I said.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55Like you always do.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12You been there all this time?

0:21:12 > 0:21:15Yeah. Janine treated me to lunch.

0:21:15 > 0:21:16Did she?

0:21:16 > 0:21:19To say thank you. For helping her.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22- Getting on famously, I see? - Spoke about you for some of it, actually.- Did you?

0:21:22 > 0:21:24All bad, I hope?

0:21:25 > 0:21:28See, this is good. This is good. We can use this.

0:21:28 > 0:21:32Next time you see her, you tell her you want to take Scarlett to the park.

0:21:32 > 0:21:33What?

0:21:33 > 0:21:36Tell her you want to take Scarlett to the park. Fresh air, stuff like that.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39I'll meet you there.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42I don't want to start lying to her.

0:21:42 > 0:21:45- Don't you?- It's like you said, she's starting to like me.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50Course she is. You're a very likeable person.

0:21:50 > 0:21:51So. The park? Yeah?

0:22:01 > 0:22:02She must be interested, Bill.

0:22:02 > 0:22:05- Maybe.- Why would she invite you over if she wasn't?

0:22:05 > 0:22:08Why'd she blank me last time if she was?

0:22:08 > 0:22:10Is it cos of this ex who's suddenly turned up?

0:22:10 > 0:22:14I mean, if someone don't want to know, fair enough.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16But if they do want to know, and then they don't...

0:22:17 > 0:22:19Tell you the truth, it's doing my head in a bit.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22- More than a bit. - OK, a lot.

0:22:22 > 0:22:23Wasn't talking about you.

0:22:23 > 0:22:25It's the same with me and Ray.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28I mean, some days, it's like honey. The next...

0:22:30 > 0:22:35I know he's got a lot on his plate, you know, with Sasha, the ex, the accident,

0:22:35 > 0:22:39but the thing is, I never know which one it's going to be.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41I don't know if he's coming on to me

0:22:41 > 0:22:43or if he's just being nice.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Maybe it's time to stop being messed about.

0:22:46 > 0:22:47Maybe you're right.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49Maybe we should both just go for it.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52You, Ray. Me, Ava.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56That way, if it's on, great.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59- If it ain't... - At least we know.

0:22:59 > 0:23:00Deal?

0:23:00 > 0:23:01Deal.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06Can't see any.

0:23:06 > 0:23:08Double check.

0:23:10 > 0:23:12No. Definitely no bubbles.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14So the patch is holding, yeah?

0:23:14 > 0:23:15Yeah.

0:23:18 > 0:23:23Make a grease monkey out of you yet, won't we, eh? Well done.

0:23:32 > 0:23:34Where you been, eh?

0:23:34 > 0:23:36The bloke with the cut-price booze?

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Oh, I had to pick up Lexi, Phil's getting Denny.

0:23:39 > 0:23:41Where've you been the rest of the day? We've barely seen you?

0:23:41 > 0:23:46- I've been busy.- The phone's been ringing.- I've had things to do. Now back off, Joey!

0:24:12 > 0:24:14Been looking for you all over.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17Sorry, I had to...see someone.

0:24:18 > 0:24:19Oh, yeah?

0:24:21 > 0:24:24But listen, I know a really good place we can go, me and you,

0:24:24 > 0:24:27after we go and...

0:24:27 > 0:24:29watch the film.

0:24:31 > 0:24:33Only we're not going anywhere, are we?

0:24:33 > 0:24:36Because Lauren is hammered again.

0:24:36 > 0:24:39What? Abs! Abi?

0:24:46 > 0:24:49Mmm. Something smells righteous in here though, Mum.

0:24:49 > 0:24:53Say that again for me, babe. I need all the reassurance I can get right now.

0:24:53 > 0:24:55So what, you cooking something special, yeah?

0:24:55 > 0:24:58Yep. Don't mind getting yourself some chips later, do you?

0:24:58 > 0:24:59For who?

0:25:01 > 0:25:03Someone special? DOORBELL RINGS

0:25:05 > 0:25:06See for yourself.

0:25:10 > 0:25:12BABY CRIES

0:25:21 > 0:25:22I was...

0:25:25 > 0:25:26Your mum invited me round.

0:25:26 > 0:25:28Yeah?

0:25:28 > 0:25:30Well, go straight through, then.

0:25:30 > 0:25:31Right.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37- An hour.- Half an hour.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40It doesn't go dark for ages.

0:25:40 > 0:25:43You ain't had your tea yet, have ya?

0:25:43 > 0:25:45I had a big meal in school.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47Chips, beans, fish and a pie.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49Oh, went for the healthy option, did you?

0:25:49 > 0:25:51- And carrots.- Oh, carrots, eh?

0:25:51 > 0:25:54Seven o'clock. Meet you out here. You can check on me any time you want.

0:25:56 > 0:25:59All right, seven. Not five past, not ten past.

0:25:59 > 0:26:00Seven.

0:26:01 > 0:26:03Here, let me take it. See ya later.

0:26:13 > 0:26:14Sharon?

0:26:16 > 0:26:17Sharon?

0:26:20 > 0:26:21PILLS RATTLE

0:26:23 > 0:26:27Give them to Granddad, darling. Come on.

0:26:28 > 0:26:30Come here.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33Hey. You all right? Come on.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37Sharon!

0:26:37 > 0:26:39Sharon?

0:26:39 > 0:26:41- SHARON!- What?

0:26:41 > 0:26:43Has Lexi taken any?

0:26:43 > 0:26:46- Phil?- The pills, has Lexi taken any pills?- What?!

0:26:46 > 0:26:48- The bottle was in her hand!- Oh, God!

0:26:48 > 0:26:50- Well, has she?- Hang on.

0:26:50 > 0:26:52Cos if she has, we need to get her help straightaway.

0:26:52 > 0:26:56- Just give me a minute.- We need to get her down the hospital and get her checked over!

0:26:56 > 0:26:58- Hang on, hang on! - Has she, Sharon? Has she?

0:26:58 > 0:27:00- No, I don't think so. - You don't THINK so?

0:27:00 > 0:27:03You can't think, you've got to be sure, we can't take a chance!

0:27:03 > 0:27:04Has she, Sharon?

0:27:04 > 0:27:07I took two and there's ten left.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09I know there was enough for another five days, at least.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11Come on, Sharon, has she!

0:27:11 > 0:27:15- No, no. No, they're all here. - You're sure?- Yes.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17- 100%?- Yeah, I'm positive.

0:27:17 > 0:27:20Phil, she couldn't have got into the bottle, the lid was on!

0:27:20 > 0:27:23What are they, Sharon? What are they?

0:27:24 > 0:27:26They're... They're painkillers.

0:27:26 > 0:27:29I had a splitting headache...

0:27:29 > 0:27:32I can't believe it, they've never had this effect on me before.

0:27:32 > 0:27:35Phil, I'm so sorry. I can't believe it.

0:27:37 > 0:27:43Well, look, no harm's done, so let's just get Lexi settled, yeah?

0:27:43 > 0:27:47and I'll clean up and put some tea on.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49Phil?

0:27:49 > 0:27:51Phil, where are you going?

0:27:51 > 0:27:54FRONT DOOR OPENING AND CLOSING

0:27:57 > 0:27:59I brought some wine.

0:27:59 > 0:28:03Oh. I've already opened some. Got red and white - just in case.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05Great minds, eh?

0:28:05 > 0:28:08And just so there are no more interruptions...

0:28:08 > 0:28:11- Actually, I was going to ask you about that...- This is going off.

0:28:11 > 0:28:12Your ex is back, yeah?

0:28:12 > 0:28:15And if anyone knocks on that door, you answer it

0:28:15 > 0:28:17and you tell 'em I'm not in.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19To anyone?

0:28:19 > 0:28:20To anyone.

0:28:22 > 0:28:24- Right. Red or white?- Red, please.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31Nice offer. No?

0:28:53 > 0:28:54Thanks, by the way.

0:28:54 > 0:28:57A punter from the Vic came over earlier.

0:28:57 > 0:29:00It was like I said, you scratch my back...

0:29:02 > 0:29:05Going anywhere nice?

0:29:05 > 0:29:06Just got back.

0:29:06 > 0:29:08Sasha's mum had a doctor's appointment.

0:29:08 > 0:29:10Oh. So not that nice then.

0:29:10 > 0:29:12Not nice news either.

0:29:12 > 0:29:15- She's going to be off for at least three months.- What?

0:29:15 > 0:29:18So you've got the next three months dashing from here to Sasha's?

0:29:18 > 0:29:20Yeah, looks like it.

0:29:20 > 0:29:22Fighting all those people on the tube,

0:29:22 > 0:29:25grabbing food whenever you can?

0:29:25 > 0:29:27I'm really glad we had this conversation, I feel a lot better(!)

0:29:27 > 0:29:31Look, if you fancy it, I've got a casserole back at the B&B.

0:29:31 > 0:29:34Like you said, you scratch my back.

0:29:34 > 0:29:35Hm?

0:29:55 > 0:29:57Max?

0:30:00 > 0:30:02- Max? - WOMAN LAUGHING

0:30:02 > 0:30:04Oi!

0:30:04 > 0:30:05Max!

0:30:05 > 0:30:09- I thought I heard something. - Yeah. It was great timing.

0:30:09 > 0:30:10Yeah. Glad to see you back.

0:30:16 > 0:30:17It ain't a problem, is it?

0:30:17 > 0:30:20No, course not.

0:30:20 > 0:30:24- After Thursday you're going to be looking after her full-time, with a bit of luck.- Yeah.

0:30:24 > 0:30:28So, what is it? You just thought you'd give me a bit of practice first, yeah?

0:30:28 > 0:30:29Yeah. Why not?

0:30:29 > 0:30:31So nothing's gone wrong?

0:30:31 > 0:30:36- What makes you say that?- Dunno, you don't just usually march round here and dump Lexi on me like this.

0:30:36 > 0:30:38I ain't dumping her, am I?

0:30:38 > 0:30:41I'm just seeing if her mum wants to spend the evening with her, you know, that's all.

0:30:41 > 0:30:43I'll be back for her later.

0:30:43 > 0:30:46Right. So she's been fed? And do you know when she needs changing?

0:30:46 > 0:30:49- Look, you're her mum, can't you work it out?- I was just asking, weren't I?

0:30:49 > 0:30:51You up for this or not?

0:30:51 > 0:30:53Yes! I'm fine. Go.

0:30:54 > 0:30:56See ya.

0:30:56 > 0:30:59We're fine.

0:30:59 > 0:31:01Come here.

0:31:02 > 0:31:04Good girl.

0:31:11 > 0:31:13- All right, Abs?- Are you busy?

0:31:13 > 0:31:15I thought you was out with Lauren?

0:31:17 > 0:31:19What's the matter?

0:31:19 > 0:31:22We'll still catch it, won't we? That film?

0:31:22 > 0:31:25- Well, yeah, course, but...- Please, Jay, I don't want to explain myself,

0:31:25 > 0:31:30I just want to go see a stupid film with my boyfriend. Is that OK?

0:31:30 > 0:31:32Yeah. All right. I'll get cleaned up.

0:31:39 > 0:31:42Hope you're hungry, son, cos I'm off.

0:31:46 > 0:31:48So. What's been happening?

0:31:48 > 0:31:51Apart from Sharon and Phil. I've heard about that.

0:31:51 > 0:31:53Yeah?

0:31:53 > 0:31:55Yeah, well, none of my business.

0:31:55 > 0:31:59I'm pleased they've worked it out - not the only ones either.

0:31:59 > 0:32:01I mean, look at you two, eh?

0:32:01 > 0:32:04- Got a scan next week. - Congratulations.

0:32:04 > 0:32:07Cheers. Dot's convinced it's a boy, by the way.

0:32:07 > 0:32:08So you going to find out?

0:32:08 > 0:32:11Or you going to leave it to be a surprise?

0:32:11 > 0:32:13Erm...I think I'll leave you two to it.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16- Feeling a bit tired.- It's all right, babe, I'll walk you back if you want?

0:32:16 > 0:32:19No, no, no, you take care of Kirsty, I'll lock up, if you want.

0:32:19 > 0:32:21No. You talk to your brother.

0:32:24 > 0:32:26You sorted the flat out?

0:32:26 > 0:32:27Yeah, plumber's all done.

0:32:29 > 0:32:31So, what's your plans?

0:32:32 > 0:32:34Don't really have any.

0:32:34 > 0:32:37Nothing to stay round here for, is there?

0:32:37 > 0:32:39- Well, stay in touch.- Yeah, course.

0:32:43 > 0:32:45PHONE RINGS

0:32:54 > 0:32:55All right?

0:32:57 > 0:33:01- Who was that?- Call centre. Been hassling me all day.

0:33:01 > 0:33:03SIREN BLARES

0:33:13 > 0:33:16Joe said could I go to their house for a sleepover tonight?

0:33:16 > 0:33:21You can have another half an hour, but no sleepover. OK?

0:33:21 > 0:33:23I'll do all the washing-up and make my bed!

0:33:23 > 0:33:25Half an hour.

0:33:48 > 0:33:49What are you looking at?

0:34:03 > 0:34:06- 'Lo? What's the problem?' - There ain't one.

0:34:06 > 0:34:08'So what are you calling me for?

0:34:08 > 0:34:11'I'm at Ava's. Meal. Date. Remember?'

0:34:11 > 0:34:14- Yes, yes, yes, I know, but Lexi's here.- 'What?'

0:34:14 > 0:34:16Phil just dropped her off.

0:34:16 > 0:34:20- 'Why?'- Dunno, maybe him and Sharon have some plans to get...

0:34:20 > 0:34:22Oh, come on, you get my drift.

0:34:22 > 0:34:24'Yeah, I had one or two myself, as it happens.'

0:34:24 > 0:34:25Pops!

0:34:25 > 0:34:28Lo, everything is all right, ain't it?

0:34:28 > 0:34:32'Cos if there's a problem, I'll come straight home.'

0:34:32 > 0:34:35No. I've got Lexi. Everything's fine.

0:34:35 > 0:34:37See you later, yeah?

0:34:37 > 0:34:39But, just in case, don't wait up.

0:34:47 > 0:34:49Did I hear a phone?

0:34:49 > 0:34:52Yeah, yeah, sorry, Lola. I know you said no interruptions, but...

0:34:52 > 0:34:55- Kids are different.- Yeah.

0:34:55 > 0:34:59- You're really close, you two, aren't you?- Well, getting there.

0:34:59 > 0:35:01Don't get me wrong, I think it's lovely.

0:35:01 > 0:35:04Amount of time you two spend together, you must really get on.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06Just making up for lost time, I suppose.

0:35:06 > 0:35:11I never saw her growing up, did I? Missed out on so much.

0:35:11 > 0:35:14Pair of us have got a lot of catching up to do.

0:35:14 > 0:35:16Yeah, I get the picture.

0:35:16 > 0:35:21Sorry, you just sounded a bit like my ex there, for a minute.

0:35:28 > 0:35:29DOOR CLOSING

0:35:29 > 0:35:31Phil?

0:35:31 > 0:35:32Denny?

0:35:35 > 0:35:36Where's Lexi?

0:35:38 > 0:35:41Look, if you've taken her to a doctor, there's no need.

0:35:41 > 0:35:43I've checked and I've double-checked,

0:35:43 > 0:35:46she hasn't taken any of the pills, I swear.

0:35:46 > 0:35:51Oh, for heaven's sake, I'd be the first to say if she had. Phil?

0:35:54 > 0:35:55Lexi's at Lola's.

0:35:57 > 0:35:59Why have you taken her there?

0:35:59 > 0:36:03Look, I just nodded off, I told you, I've had a really busy day.

0:36:03 > 0:36:06You weren't asleep, you was out of it.

0:36:06 > 0:36:09Well, I get like that sometimes, when I'm really tired.

0:36:09 > 0:36:13You know, now and again, I just, I just spark out, always have.

0:36:13 > 0:36:15- Painkillers.- What?

0:36:15 > 0:36:18That's what you said, them pills, they're painkillers for headaches.

0:36:18 > 0:36:20I don't know what I was saying,

0:36:20 > 0:36:24I'd just woken up and you were yelling in my face.

0:36:24 > 0:36:27Anyway, it doesn't matter what I said now, does it? Not really.

0:36:27 > 0:36:33All that matters is that Lexi's fine and everything's good, yeah?

0:36:33 > 0:36:36And I've learnt my lesson, Phil, I swear I have.

0:36:36 > 0:36:38You know, next time I'm feeling a bit low

0:36:38 > 0:36:42I'll make sure that whatever I take, I take on a full stomach.

0:36:42 > 0:36:43You see, that's another thing,

0:36:43 > 0:36:47I've been so busy all day I've hardly had time to eat.

0:36:47 > 0:36:49This is what you was on before?

0:36:50 > 0:36:51What?

0:36:51 > 0:36:55These pills. I take it they ain't exactly prescription drugs?

0:36:55 > 0:36:56Why would you say that?

0:36:56 > 0:36:58The bottle, for starters. There ain't a label on it.

0:36:58 > 0:37:00What's with all the questions?

0:37:00 > 0:37:03I'm sorry, Phil, but I feel like I'm getting the third degree and I don't like it -

0:37:03 > 0:37:05I told you, I'd just woken up.

0:37:05 > 0:37:08I don't know what I said, it just came out wrong, probably.

0:37:08 > 0:37:13And I don't like you being spark out on the sofa when you're supposed to be looking after my grand-daughter.

0:37:13 > 0:37:17And I don't like my grand-daughter crawling around when there's stuff like this lying around.

0:37:17 > 0:37:21So, I'm going to ask you again, Sharon.

0:37:21 > 0:37:23Is this the stuff that you was on before?

0:37:33 > 0:37:35- That was quick.- I had to be.

0:37:35 > 0:37:38We've got about five minutes to get to the tube, all right? PHONE RINGING

0:37:38 > 0:37:40If this is my sister...

0:37:41 > 0:37:43You all right, Lola?

0:37:54 > 0:37:55Well, well...

0:38:02 > 0:38:04..the bad penny.

0:38:04 > 0:38:09- Yeah, it's nice to see you too. - Flying visit?- Come on, Michael...

0:38:09 > 0:38:12"Come on, Michael," what? "Come on, Michael," what? Where you been?

0:38:12 > 0:38:15- We've got a business to run, here. - Yes, I know, all right? I'm back now.

0:38:15 > 0:38:17For how long? Until the next problem hoves into view

0:38:17 > 0:38:19and you do another runner?

0:38:19 > 0:38:20I might put a bet down on you actually.

0:38:20 > 0:38:22I'll get good odds, I reckon.

0:38:22 > 0:38:23How long will he last this time?

0:38:23 > 0:38:25One day? Two days?

0:38:25 > 0:38:28Ten minutes, the way today's panning out.

0:38:28 > 0:38:30Do yourself a favour, Jack. Make it five.

0:38:30 > 0:38:34You can't just come back in here, pick up the pieces, eh?

0:38:34 > 0:38:37You said goodbye to everybody.

0:38:37 > 0:38:39We did the same.

0:38:48 > 0:38:51Phil's just dropped her off. Ain't that great?

0:38:51 > 0:38:53And that's what you phoned us about?

0:38:53 > 0:38:56- Yeah.- To tell us Lexi was here?

0:38:56 > 0:38:57Yes.

0:38:57 > 0:39:00Well, now you've got her and we've seen her,

0:39:00 > 0:39:01can we go to our film, please?

0:39:01 > 0:39:03DOORBELL RINGS

0:39:06 > 0:39:10- Are you sure everything's OK? - Of course.

0:39:10 > 0:39:12So what's going on, you left a message?

0:39:12 > 0:39:15Oh, great! We're all here. Basically, I've got Lexi.

0:39:15 > 0:39:18I've just been so excited, I've had no-one to tell!

0:39:18 > 0:39:20Ain't even been to the toilet yet.

0:39:24 > 0:39:27I just didn't want to leave Lexi on her own.

0:39:27 > 0:39:29Lola, you're not on your own. We're here.

0:39:29 > 0:39:31No, we're not, WE are going to our film.

0:39:35 > 0:39:37I have heard it's rubbish though.

0:39:39 > 0:39:43I went to see a doctor. When I was in America.

0:39:43 > 0:39:45He told me about them, he...

0:39:45 > 0:39:47He said they relaxed you,

0:39:47 > 0:39:50made it easier to cope with things and...

0:39:50 > 0:39:52he was right.

0:39:52 > 0:39:54So, he, er...

0:39:56 > 0:39:59..he sends them over, does he?

0:39:59 > 0:40:01- What?- You phone him up, say you've run out and you want some more

0:40:01 > 0:40:03and he says, "Yeah, of course?"

0:40:03 > 0:40:05No...

0:40:08 > 0:40:09So?

0:40:10 > 0:40:16I met this bloke down the club and he said he could get me some.

0:40:16 > 0:40:19Look, it was just after Jack. You saw what I was like -

0:40:19 > 0:40:23I had Denny crying all the time, I thought I was going off my head.

0:40:23 > 0:40:24So you've got a dealer?

0:40:24 > 0:40:25NO...

0:40:25 > 0:40:29No, he's just someone who takes the same sort of stuff now and again.

0:40:29 > 0:40:32Whatever he's got left over he knocks it out to anyone who asks for it?

0:40:32 > 0:40:35No, he's not a dealer and these ain't drugs, not really.

0:40:35 > 0:40:38No. I mean...what's cigarettes? What's booze?

0:40:38 > 0:40:41- Exactly.- Some stuff you get from over a counter, or from behind a bar,

0:40:41 > 0:40:43other stuff you get other ways. Right?

0:40:47 > 0:40:49I used to say that...

0:40:49 > 0:40:51when I was on the gear.

0:40:57 > 0:40:59So, how is it?

0:40:59 > 0:41:04This is really good, I'm impressed. So is that okra?

0:41:04 > 0:41:06I dunno.

0:41:06 > 0:41:07Didn't you make this?

0:41:07 > 0:41:12Ray, it's edible. Course I didn't, it's Patrick's.

0:41:13 > 0:41:17- And does Patrick know we're eating his grub?- He can make some more.

0:41:17 > 0:41:19Kim!

0:41:19 > 0:41:24I must admit though, this is much needed. Thank you.

0:41:24 > 0:41:26- It's really thoughtful.- It's OK.

0:41:28 > 0:41:32Suppose food is not the only thing you're not getting much of recently.

0:41:32 > 0:41:33What do you mean?

0:41:33 > 0:41:36You know, all the dashing around -

0:41:36 > 0:41:40don't suppose that flat of yours has seen much polish?

0:41:40 > 0:41:43But, you know, if you do fancy some home comforts -

0:41:43 > 0:41:45one of our rooms is going begging.

0:41:45 > 0:41:48Freshly cleaned, it's all nice and warm...

0:41:51 > 0:41:53..or there's the launderette.

0:42:12 > 0:42:15- You staying here all night? - What's it to you?

0:42:19 > 0:42:20I don't need to.

0:42:21 > 0:42:23Not if I've got something better to do.

0:42:23 > 0:42:28Well, I'm going for a little walk. Come along, if you want?

0:42:28 > 0:42:29Yeah?

0:42:32 > 0:42:34OK. Yeah. I will.

0:42:40 > 0:42:43This baby stuff's nothing, man.

0:42:43 > 0:42:45All you gotta do is sit back, watch a bit of TV...

0:42:45 > 0:42:48- Stick a bottle in it's gob every now and again.- Change one, two nappies.

0:42:48 > 0:42:51Yeah. Nothing to worry about, really, eh?

0:42:51 > 0:42:53So, why are you then?

0:42:53 > 0:42:55Come on, Lola, this isn't like you.

0:42:57 > 0:43:00- Nothing, just something Phil said, that's all.- What?

0:43:00 > 0:43:04This could be it couldn't it, eh? After Thursday. ME, a full-time Mum.

0:43:04 > 0:43:05That's what you want, isn't it?

0:43:05 > 0:43:09Course it is, but it don't stop me being scared, does it?

0:43:09 > 0:43:12Look at her, she is tiny and who's she got to look after her, eh? Me.

0:43:12 > 0:43:13And Billy.

0:43:13 > 0:43:16Come on, you can't rely on him. I mean, look at tonight.

0:43:16 > 0:43:19- He's got his own life now, ain't he? - Phil'll still be around, won't he?

0:43:19 > 0:43:23- Yeah, and he's got his own life too. - Look, we're here.

0:43:23 > 0:43:24Yeah, I know you are.

0:43:24 > 0:43:27Not the same as doing it properly though, is it?

0:43:27 > 0:43:28What do you mean?

0:43:28 > 0:43:32You know - mum, dad, family, all that stuff.

0:43:32 > 0:43:34No, she's right.

0:43:34 > 0:43:36No kid can get through that - growing up without a dad.

0:43:36 > 0:43:39Oh, wait, I did, and look how I turned out.

0:43:39 > 0:43:41- Exactly. Look how you turned out.- Oi!

0:43:41 > 0:43:43Nah, he's got a point, to be fair.

0:43:43 > 0:43:48I mean, a kid needs a mum and a dad, otherwise, "Hello, Psycho."

0:43:48 > 0:43:52Thank Goodness I had it normal - mum, dad, brother, sister -

0:43:52 > 0:43:54we're all perfect, no wonder my family turned out so well(!)

0:43:54 > 0:43:56LEXI MOANING

0:43:59 > 0:44:00Go on.

0:44:02 > 0:44:06Do you know what? I think you guys are actually right.

0:44:06 > 0:44:08It's going to be a doddle.

0:44:08 > 0:44:12And all this baby lark, is also going to be a doddle!

0:44:13 > 0:44:15Why now, eh?

0:44:15 > 0:44:17- What?- I mean, it's over between you and Jack, right?

0:44:17 > 0:44:19- Yes.- Yeah, you're history? - Yeah, course we are...

0:44:19 > 0:44:21So it's just a coincidence, is it?

0:44:21 > 0:44:25- He turns up then all of a sudden... - No, no, it just knocked me for a bit.

0:44:25 > 0:44:28It's not like I'm still thinking about him or nothing,

0:44:28 > 0:44:33it just rocked me, him turning up out of the blue like that, you know?

0:44:33 > 0:44:35So, how bad is this?

0:44:35 > 0:44:37- What?- What's "now and again" mean?

0:44:37 > 0:44:39- Once a week, once a month, once a day? What?- No. Course not.

0:44:39 > 0:44:41- Well, what then?- I don't know.

0:44:41 > 0:44:44You know what it ain't, you just said so, so why don't you know what it is?

0:44:44 > 0:44:47Have you been taking these before, when you've been looking after Lexi?

0:44:47 > 0:44:49No.

0:44:49 > 0:44:54No, never, I swear, this is the first time...with Lexi, anyway.

0:44:54 > 0:44:57Yeah, I've taken them, but never when she's been in the house.

0:44:57 > 0:44:59I can't believe you'd think that Phil. What do you take me for?

0:44:59 > 0:45:02That's what I'm trying to find out, Sharon.

0:45:02 > 0:45:07OK...so does this answer your question?

0:45:07 > 0:45:12The question you're really asking. Do I need 'em?

0:45:12 > 0:45:14Well, come on, let's go and flush 'em away, yeah?

0:45:16 > 0:45:18Yeah.

0:45:18 > 0:45:19Yeah, I did that before.

0:45:19 > 0:45:23I threw a whole load of stuff away, just to prove that I could.

0:45:24 > 0:45:25Do you know why?

0:45:27 > 0:45:32Because all the time I had a load more waiting for me.

0:45:44 > 0:45:46This is nice.

0:45:46 > 0:45:47You feeling better?

0:45:48 > 0:45:51- I was feeling OK before, thank you. - Didn't look like it, Lauren.

0:45:51 > 0:45:54Looked like you were getting in a right state.

0:45:54 > 0:45:58Oh, careful, Joey. Actually sounds like you care.

0:45:58 > 0:45:59Course I care.

0:46:02 > 0:46:04- Yeah?- Yeah.

0:46:08 > 0:46:11No, Lauren, Lauren. I didn't mean like that.

0:46:17 > 0:46:20We're here now. You might as well go home.

0:46:25 > 0:46:27Is that it?

0:46:29 > 0:46:31"Come out with me, Lauren.

0:46:31 > 0:46:34"Why don't you come out on a little walk with me, Lauren,"

0:46:34 > 0:46:36and you just take me home!

0:46:37 > 0:46:41Is this the way you show girls a good time is it, Joey? You freak!

0:46:41 > 0:46:44- Lauren?- Oi! I'm talking to you!

0:46:44 > 0:46:46Lauren?

0:46:46 > 0:46:48- Come here.- Leave me alone.

0:46:48 > 0:46:52Lauren, come here? Lauren, wait! What's wrong?

0:46:55 > 0:46:58Oi, oi, what's the matter?

0:46:58 > 0:47:00LAUREN SOBS

0:47:00 > 0:47:02Shh, shh.

0:47:03 > 0:47:06It's all right, I can take it from here.

0:47:06 > 0:47:10- Come on, darling. Let's get you home. Come on.- Come on.

0:47:24 > 0:47:27- See you then.- All right, see ya. - Bye.- See you, bye.

0:47:29 > 0:47:31So which mate is it?

0:47:31 > 0:47:35- What?- The sleepover?- Oh, Joe.

0:47:35 > 0:47:38OK. I'll bring your stuff over in a bit, yeah?

0:47:38 > 0:47:43- Yes! Joe, Joe, wait up! Sleepover! - Brilliant!

0:47:47 > 0:47:49So I said, "If you want to go to football,

0:47:49 > 0:47:55"I'll take you to the Orient," and then he tells me that's too far!

0:47:55 > 0:48:01Listen, Ava, I'm sorry. You know, talking about me and Lola like that.

0:48:01 > 0:48:05- It's all right. Doesn't matter. - Everyone's different, ain't they?

0:48:06 > 0:48:11I mean...some kids and parents, they get together and it's good...

0:48:11 > 0:48:14some do and it ain't so good.

0:48:14 > 0:48:16You know what's best for your family

0:48:16 > 0:48:18and I weren't trying to tell you that you don't.

0:48:18 > 0:48:23Just...he's no good. Never has been, never will be.

0:48:25 > 0:48:28Anyway, what are we talking about him for?

0:48:28 > 0:48:30I just wish he'd get the message and go -

0:48:30 > 0:48:33we're over, we were done and dusted years ago.

0:48:33 > 0:48:36Just the thought of him now makes my skin crawl.

0:48:37 > 0:48:41This the bloke who was done and dusted years ago?

0:48:44 > 0:48:45Open this, shall I?

0:49:20 > 0:49:22KNOCKING ON A WINDOW

0:49:32 > 0:49:35Now this beats trekking back to a cold flat -

0:49:35 > 0:49:39dirty dishes in the sink, laundry all over the place.

0:49:42 > 0:49:46- The room's been let. - What? What you talking about?

0:49:46 > 0:49:49I didn't know, Patrick must have done it when I was out.

0:49:49 > 0:49:51How can you waft flipping paradise underneath my nose,

0:49:51 > 0:49:53then just take it away from me?

0:49:53 > 0:49:55Well, the food was good, innit?

0:50:00 > 0:50:02Oh, hang on...

0:50:02 > 0:50:05That's tomorrow. Tomorrow night.

0:50:07 > 0:50:10Sorry. Well, looks like you're in luck after all, innit?

0:50:12 > 0:50:13That's a shame.

0:50:13 > 0:50:16What, you really wanted to go back to that cold flat?

0:50:16 > 0:50:20Well, maybe it might have made the perfect excuse.

0:50:20 > 0:50:22Excuse?

0:50:22 > 0:50:24Well, THAT room might been gone...

0:50:28 > 0:50:30What, and mine ain't?

0:50:55 > 0:50:59Good job I ain't got far to stagger home, eh?

0:51:06 > 0:51:11Ava, look, there's no need to rush any of this.

0:51:12 > 0:51:16- Are you blanking me now? - No, I'm just saying...

0:51:16 > 0:51:18we can take things slowly.

0:51:18 > 0:51:21- Life's for living.- Yeah.

0:51:21 > 0:51:23Yeah, it is.

0:51:23 > 0:51:25I just...

0:51:26 > 0:51:29..can't help it, I keep getting the strangest feeling, that's all.

0:51:30 > 0:51:32What?

0:51:33 > 0:51:35It's like...

0:51:35 > 0:51:38you're looking at me and you're talking to me...

0:51:40 > 0:51:44..but all the time you're... you're thinking about someone else.

0:52:06 > 0:52:11You were the one person that I thought I knew in the whole world

0:52:11 > 0:52:14but I don't know you, do I, Sharon?

0:52:14 > 0:52:19I don't know what you're talking about, I haven't suddenly turned into someone else.

0:52:19 > 0:52:23I'm just going through a rough patch. I've got a health problem...

0:52:23 > 0:52:26You can't even say it, can you? You can't say it!

0:52:26 > 0:52:29- "I'm an addict".- I'm not an... - You can't do without them.

0:52:29 > 0:52:31Course I can.

0:52:31 > 0:52:36And what would've happened if that social worker had come back with me?

0:52:36 > 0:52:37- Well, why would she?- I dunno.

0:52:37 > 0:52:41To check on something, to change a time or have one last look at Lexi.

0:52:41 > 0:52:43What chance would Lola have had then, eh?

0:52:43 > 0:52:46Or any of us have, of having anything to do with Lexi again

0:52:46 > 0:52:49when the family, the people that are supposed to be looking after her,

0:52:49 > 0:52:51are putting her at risk like that?

0:52:51 > 0:52:55Look, from now on, from this minute, this is all in the past.

0:52:55 > 0:52:57- I promise you. - Only cos I found you like that.

0:52:57 > 0:53:00that's the only reason you're saying what you're saying now.

0:53:00 > 0:53:02- It's not true.- And what?

0:53:02 > 0:53:04If I hadn't have found you, you would have come round and what,

0:53:04 > 0:53:08said to yourself, "I gotta knock this on the head"? No. Nah.

0:53:09 > 0:53:12I ain't doing it, Sharon.

0:53:12 > 0:53:14- I lived with a junkie once... - I'm not a junkie!

0:53:14 > 0:53:18A junkie who told himself, who told everyone else, that he wasn't a junkie.

0:53:18 > 0:53:20Well, when I got clean, when I sorted myself out,

0:53:20 > 0:53:24I promised myself I'd never... I'd never live like that again.

0:53:24 > 0:53:26So what are you saying?

0:53:28 > 0:53:29Who is it? Eh?

0:53:30 > 0:53:34Who is it, Sharon, that I've been looking at these last few weeks?

0:53:34 > 0:53:37Not you. Just someone you've wanted me to see.

0:53:37 > 0:53:39Come on, Phil.

0:53:39 > 0:53:43Come on, this is me, me and you.

0:53:43 > 0:53:45I mean, look what we've been through

0:53:45 > 0:53:47but we've always got through it, haven't we?

0:53:47 > 0:53:51And you know, as well as I know, that it's cos you love me

0:53:51 > 0:53:53and I love you, and it doesn't matter what happens in the end

0:53:53 > 0:53:56because this is it, it always will be.

0:53:58 > 0:54:00I want you out.

0:54:00 > 0:54:02I ain't living like that again, I just ain't.

0:54:02 > 0:54:04I ain't having you round my family

0:54:04 > 0:54:06and I'm not risking losing Lexi because of you.

0:54:06 > 0:54:10- You can't be serious.- And I'm NOT... I'm not living with a liar.

0:54:10 > 0:54:13Come on, you don't mean that, I know you...

0:54:13 > 0:54:15you're not thinking straight. PLEASE, please, come on!

0:54:15 > 0:54:16I want you out. Just get out.

0:54:16 > 0:54:19- Phil, please, listen to me! - I want you out!

0:54:20 > 0:54:22I'll pack your things and send them on.

0:54:22 > 0:54:25Phil, where am I going to go?

0:54:25 > 0:54:28Phil, please!

0:54:28 > 0:54:29Phil?

0:54:47 > 0:54:48Nightmares again?

0:54:48 > 0:54:51Yeah. It's the same one.

0:54:51 > 0:54:54We've got Lexi back and I go to give her her feed

0:54:54 > 0:54:57and I look and I look, but she ain't there.

0:54:57 > 0:55:01And I'm running and I'm crying. She's not there. She's gone.

0:55:02 > 0:55:05Then I wake up and I'm actually crying.

0:55:06 > 0:55:08And do you know the worst bit?

0:55:08 > 0:55:11I actually wish I was in my dream right now and not awake.

0:55:13 > 0:55:16Pops, I want her back so bad, it hurts.

0:55:16 > 0:55:17I just want her back.

0:55:17 > 0:55:19Come here.

0:55:19 > 0:55:20It hurts so much.

0:55:20 > 0:55:22All right, darling, all right.

0:55:26 > 0:55:29There's a good girl. Aren't you, eh?

0:55:31 > 0:55:34Yes, you are. Yes, you are.

0:55:49 > 0:55:52There you go, darling. You work so hard.

0:55:52 > 0:55:53I'm so proud of you.

0:55:53 > 0:55:55Mum...

0:55:57 > 0:55:59Do you even remember getting home last night?

0:55:59 > 0:56:00Yeah, course I do.

0:56:00 > 0:56:01Do you?

0:56:01 > 0:56:03Do you remember me helping you up the stairs?

0:56:03 > 0:56:06Holding your hair while you were sick on the bathroom floor and in your bed?

0:56:06 > 0:56:07Yeah. Sorry.

0:56:07 > 0:56:11Having to get you undressed like you were five years old? Do you?

0:56:11 > 0:56:14Right, you can sort that lot out.

0:56:14 > 0:56:17Go on, then. Abi is trying to study here, all right?

0:56:17 > 0:56:19She doesn't need all these distractions.

0:56:19 > 0:56:22OK. I'm sorry. I am.

0:56:25 > 0:56:26What am I meant to do with her, eh?

0:56:26 > 0:56:28Why are you asking me?

0:56:32 > 0:56:34Kirsty!

0:56:34 > 0:56:36KNOCK AT DOOR

0:56:36 > 0:56:37Kirsty!

0:56:37 > 0:56:38What?

0:56:38 > 0:56:41You're supposed to be meeting the drayman. That is the drayman.

0:56:43 > 0:56:46Sorry, there you go. Cheers.

0:56:54 > 0:56:56Do you take that folic stuff?

0:56:56 > 0:56:57What?

0:56:57 > 0:56:58Folic acid?

0:56:58 > 0:56:59My doctor keeps banging on about it,

0:56:59 > 0:57:01and now Alfie keeps banging on about it.

0:57:01 > 0:57:04Do you know, I actually think Alfie was pretending to be asleep

0:57:04 > 0:57:05when I came to bed last night.

0:57:05 > 0:57:07PHONE RINGS

0:57:07 > 0:57:09Mind you, it's not exactly sexy, is it?

0:57:09 > 0:57:13"Come on, darlin', let's have some calendar-based hanky-panky."

0:57:13 > 0:57:17Maybe he finds you repulsive. Maybe that's the problem.

0:57:17 > 0:57:19OK, I'm going to put that down to hormones.

0:57:19 > 0:57:21Extensions, where you going?

0:57:21 > 0:57:22Morning sickness.

0:57:25 > 0:57:27Yeah, it's hormones. Definitely hormones.

0:57:30 > 0:57:31Ouch!

0:57:33 > 0:57:34Don't worry, everything'll be fine.

0:57:34 > 0:57:36Yeah, course it's going to be fine.

0:57:36 > 0:57:38You're going to go into that courtroom today

0:57:38 > 0:57:40and everything will be fine.

0:57:40 > 0:57:42I wish everyone would just stop saying that.

0:57:44 > 0:57:46Sorry, I'm just... I'm just scared.

0:57:50 > 0:57:51I know you are.

0:57:54 > 0:57:57Look, it's just one more day, Lola.

0:57:57 > 0:57:59Just one more day that you've got to be brave.

0:57:59 > 0:58:02And you have. You have been so brave, you really have.

0:58:05 > 0:58:07Look, I've...

0:58:09 > 0:58:13I've had him since I was little, and he's lucky, I swear.

0:58:15 > 0:58:18All right, I know it sounds weird, but whether I've been worrying

0:58:18 > 0:58:23about exams or something, he's been there. So...

0:58:23 > 0:58:24DOOR OPENS

0:58:26 > 0:58:27Shall we?

0:58:30 > 0:58:31It's just one more day, Lola...

0:58:34 > 0:58:35Yeah.

0:58:39 > 0:58:40How's Lauren?

0:58:40 > 0:58:42She's sleeping.

0:58:42 > 0:58:45She was out of it last night, wasn't she?

0:58:45 > 0:58:48Yeah, well, she's a teenager, isn't she, you know?

0:58:48 > 0:58:51I was always on the lash when I was her age.

0:58:53 > 0:58:54What?

0:58:54 > 0:58:57Well, being away for a while and seeing her again,

0:58:57 > 0:58:58she didn't look good.

0:58:58 > 0:59:00I mean, she's been through a lot, hasn't she?

0:59:00 > 0:59:02You know, with you and Max.

0:59:02 > 0:59:03The cancer, and everything. She's...

0:59:06 > 0:59:09- She's what? What is she? - She's sensitive.

0:59:09 > 0:59:11She's carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders.

0:59:11 > 0:59:13Jack, it's just teenage stuff, you know?

0:59:13 > 0:59:15She's just letting off a bit of steam.

0:59:16 > 0:59:18What?

0:59:18 > 0:59:21You think I should have a word with her?

0:59:21 > 0:59:23No shouting, all right? No threats.

0:59:23 > 0:59:25Just listen to her.

0:59:34 > 0:59:36Let's get this over with.

0:59:36 > 0:59:38Ain't we going to wait for Sharon?

0:59:38 > 0:59:39She can't make it.

0:59:39 > 0:59:40- What?- Why not?

0:59:40 > 0:59:41She's busy.

0:59:41 > 0:59:43She's busy? Busy doing what?

0:59:43 > 0:59:45Phil, I said busy doing what?

0:59:45 > 0:59:47Well, it don't matter. I'm going, and that's all we need.

0:59:47 > 0:59:50- Something's gone wrong, innit? - Everything'll be all right.

0:59:50 > 0:59:53No, I knew something was going to go wrong. Where is she?

0:59:53 > 0:59:54Don't bother. Don't bother.

0:59:54 > 0:59:57We're supposed to show she's got family she can rely on. We need her.

0:59:57 > 0:59:59- Sharon!- She ain't here.

0:59:59 > 1:00:01What?

1:00:01 > 1:00:04Let's just go. Come on, darling.

1:00:10 > 1:00:14It's in the community centre. Sing-a-long-arise...something...

1:00:14 > 1:00:16Sing-a-long-arise-and-shine, yeah.

1:00:16 > 1:00:18Sounds absolutely horrendous. And I'd rather you than me.

1:00:18 > 1:00:23Look, can you please make sure she doesn't go near any other babies?

1:00:23 > 1:00:26And I don't really want her sitting on the floor.

1:00:26 > 1:00:29I swear that place is riddled with E. coli.

1:00:29 > 1:00:32Here, anyone who can sit through an hour-and-a-half

1:00:32 > 1:00:34of inane singing torture deserves a treat.

1:00:34 > 1:00:37- No, honestly, you don't have to do that.- I know I don't.

1:00:37 > 1:00:39Take it.

1:00:39 > 1:00:40Have fun.

1:00:40 > 1:00:42Thank you.

1:00:42 > 1:00:44Bye-bye!

1:00:44 > 1:00:47Janine...for you.

1:01:07 > 1:01:09It's an invite. For tea tonight.

1:01:09 > 1:01:10He can read, Morgan.

1:01:10 > 1:01:13We're going to have starters. And ice cream.

1:01:13 > 1:01:15Ooh, and ice cream? Wow.

1:01:15 > 1:01:17We've been told not to burp at the table.

1:01:17 > 1:01:19And to pretend we're actually interested

1:01:19 > 1:01:22when you talk about jobs and money and stuff.

1:01:22 > 1:01:23Can you come?

1:01:23 > 1:01:28Let me consult my busy social calendar. Yes, I'd be delighted.

1:01:29 > 1:01:31He said yes!

1:01:31 > 1:01:34No burping at the table, apparently.

1:01:34 > 1:01:36That's just the kids. Eight o'clock?

1:01:36 > 1:01:37Eight o'clock.

1:01:38 > 1:01:40See ya.

1:01:40 > 1:01:41See ya.

1:01:43 > 1:01:48# I can feel it coming in the air tonight... #

1:02:02 > 1:02:03Hi.

1:02:05 > 1:02:08- Hello. All right? - We can't be too long, OK?

1:02:08 > 1:02:11She won't find out, will she? No, she's way too dumb.

1:02:13 > 1:02:16Oh, it's so nice to see you, darling. How are you?

1:02:16 > 1:02:18Daddy's really missed you.

1:02:34 > 1:02:37You all right, darlin'?

1:02:37 > 1:02:39Darlin'.

1:02:39 > 1:02:40Yeah?

1:02:41 > 1:02:43Has something happened?

1:02:43 > 1:02:45We're worried about you.

1:02:45 > 1:02:47Me? I'm fine.

1:02:49 > 1:02:52You were so out of it last night, it was horrible to see.

1:02:53 > 1:02:57Look, I know things can get a bit much sometimes, can't they?

1:02:57 > 1:02:59Especially all this stuff with Joey.

1:03:01 > 1:03:04But I hate seeing you in a state like that.

1:03:04 > 1:03:07You're a bright girl, Lauren, all right? You're really talented.

1:03:09 > 1:03:11We don't want that to go to waste, do we?

1:03:11 > 1:03:13We're just worried about you.

1:03:14 > 1:03:15Well, don't be.

1:03:16 > 1:03:18Don't be worried.

1:03:18 > 1:03:21I've just broken up with the boy that I thought I was in love with.

1:03:21 > 1:03:23I'm just a bit sad, that's all.

1:03:25 > 1:03:27I'll be fine, honestly.

1:03:27 > 1:03:32I'm just going to get back to the work and just focus on that.

1:03:34 > 1:03:36I'm starting my project again.

1:03:36 > 1:03:39It's only a paragraph but it's a start, ain't it?

1:03:39 > 1:03:41You know Hannah from college?

1:03:41 > 1:03:46Well, I'm going to meet up with her, get all the notes that I've missed.

1:03:46 > 1:03:47I'm really going to try.

1:03:48 > 1:03:52I promise you. I am, I'm going to try.

1:03:53 > 1:03:56So you don't need to be worried about me.

1:04:05 > 1:04:07Excuse me, please, sir.

1:04:07 > 1:04:08Thank you.

1:04:13 > 1:04:17They're running behind. Shouldn't be too long, though. How are you doing?

1:04:17 > 1:04:18Feeling positive?

1:04:18 > 1:04:20No, I just want to get it over with.

1:04:20 > 1:04:21Everything's going to be OK.

1:04:22 > 1:04:24Where's Sharon?

1:04:24 > 1:04:26She, er, she ain't coming.

1:04:26 > 1:04:27You are kidding.

1:04:27 > 1:04:30Yeah, yeah, Dave, cos I'd kid about a thing like that, wouldn't I?

1:04:30 > 1:04:33This isn't good, Philip. This really isn't good.

1:04:33 > 1:04:35Morning. Everything OK?

1:04:35 > 1:04:37Yes, fine. See you in there.

1:04:37 > 1:04:40Keep him in check this time, will you?

1:04:40 > 1:04:43Phil, she's still got time. Call her. Get her here...

1:04:43 > 1:04:46It won't do any good. She ain't coming, so forget it.

1:04:46 > 1:04:48You want a bet?

1:04:55 > 1:04:57What did I miss?

1:05:12 > 1:05:13You all right?

1:05:14 > 1:05:16Thought you'd be at work.

1:05:18 > 1:05:19Kirsty?

1:05:25 > 1:05:27Babe, what is it?

1:05:28 > 1:05:30What's happened?

1:05:30 > 1:05:32Nothing. It's nothing.

1:05:41 > 1:05:43Babe, what is it?

1:05:43 > 1:05:45Do you love me?

1:05:46 > 1:05:49What are you talking about? Where's this come from?

1:05:49 > 1:05:51- Do you love me? - You know I love you.

1:05:51 > 1:05:54What are you talking about? You know I do.

1:05:55 > 1:05:57And you'll love me whatever?

1:05:59 > 1:06:01Babe, what have you done?

1:06:01 > 1:06:02What have I done?

1:06:02 > 1:06:04No. It's not you.

1:06:06 > 1:06:07You're great. You're perfect.

1:06:08 > 1:06:10I want to be happy, Max.

1:06:10 > 1:06:12Babe, you're scaring me now, all right?

1:06:12 > 1:06:16- Just tell me, will you, please? - Forget it.- Babe, just tell me, all right?

1:06:17 > 1:06:20Kirsty, I ain't going to leave you till you tell me.

1:06:20 > 1:06:22Whatever it is, we'll deal with it, all right?

1:06:22 > 1:06:25You and me. We'll sort it out.

1:06:25 > 1:06:27PHONE RINGS

1:06:30 > 1:06:33It's Adam.

1:06:33 > 1:06:34What, Carl's brother?

1:06:34 > 1:06:36He keeps doing this. He keeps calling.

1:06:36 > 1:06:38Carl's getting out of prison.

1:06:38 > 1:06:39I don't like it, Max.

1:06:41 > 1:06:43I'm scared.

1:06:45 > 1:06:47What we're looking for is for the court

1:06:47 > 1:06:50to grant a supervision order rather than a care order.

1:06:50 > 1:06:51If we get that, we're home free.

1:06:51 > 1:06:54And then Lexi can come with us straightaway?

1:06:54 > 1:06:56Yeah, it's a possibility.

1:07:01 > 1:07:04Go in there with your head held high and your shoulders back,

1:07:04 > 1:07:07and look that judge straight in the eye, yeah?

1:07:07 > 1:07:10Prove to them that you deserve to have Lexi back.

1:07:10 > 1:07:12Phil!

1:07:12 > 1:07:14You are not setting foot in there.

1:07:14 > 1:07:16- You need me. - You're a mess, Sharon.

1:07:16 > 1:07:18Look, I'm on top of things. I am. I'm sorting things out.

1:07:18 > 1:07:21Please, Phil, let me do this for you.

1:07:21 > 1:07:23Let me do it for Lola and Lexi and Billy,

1:07:23 > 1:07:25and I swear I will never bother you again.

1:07:25 > 1:07:28And how many have you had, eh?

1:07:28 > 1:07:29Do you think I'm that stupid?

1:07:29 > 1:07:31One? Two? A couple more for good luck, eh?

1:07:31 > 1:07:32No. I'm fine.

1:07:32 > 1:07:33You're a junkie, Sharon.

1:07:33 > 1:07:35I'm not.

1:07:35 > 1:07:36Just go. Go!

1:07:36 > 1:07:37Come on, go! Just go!

1:07:37 > 1:07:40Phil! Phil, keep it down, will you?

1:07:40 > 1:07:43Well, you tell them what's going on, yeah?

1:07:43 > 1:07:45And then they can decide whether you stay or not.

1:07:45 > 1:07:47Well, go on, then, tell them.

1:07:48 > 1:07:51She's popping pills. And not just the headache type, either.

1:07:51 > 1:07:52I don't have a problem.

1:07:52 > 1:07:55She even talks like a junkie, so you can see why she can't stay.

1:07:55 > 1:07:58No, she doesn't take them any more. She's better now, ain't you?

1:07:58 > 1:07:59Come on, Phil, she has to come in.

1:07:59 > 1:08:02- If she don't, how's it going to look?- Let's go in, yeah?

1:08:02 > 1:08:04What do you mean, she's better now?

1:08:04 > 1:08:07- Nothing, Phil. She don't mean nothing.- No, no, what do you mean?

1:08:09 > 1:08:11It was just once, all right, Phil?

1:08:11 > 1:08:14Sharon was looking after Lexi and she... Well, she...

1:08:14 > 1:08:16She what?

1:08:16 > 1:08:17She was out of it.

1:08:17 > 1:08:20I'm sorry, Phil, I didn't know what to say.

1:08:21 > 1:08:22You told me it was just once.

1:08:24 > 1:08:25Look, let's go in, OK?

1:08:25 > 1:08:28It's not Lola's fault. I told her I'd sorted it.

1:08:28 > 1:08:31And you, you didn't think to say anything, did you?

1:08:31 > 1:08:34- We thought it was best. - Best? Best for who, Billy, eh?!

1:08:34 > 1:08:36Not here, please.

1:08:36 > 1:08:38And you, you let Lexi stay with her?

1:08:38 > 1:08:39Yeah, but...

1:08:39 > 1:08:41You left your baby in her hands?

1:08:41 > 1:08:42Phil, what choice did she have?

1:08:42 > 1:08:44What kind of person does that make you, eh?

1:08:44 > 1:08:45Don't say that.

1:08:45 > 1:08:48What kind of mother does that make you, eh?

1:08:51 > 1:08:55This ain't about Lola. This is about me and you.

1:08:55 > 1:08:58Look, do what you like, call me all the names under the sun,

1:08:58 > 1:09:01but don't ruin her life because you hate me. It's not fair.

1:09:11 > 1:09:15'Kirsty? It's Adam. I'm going to keep calling you till you answer.

1:09:15 > 1:09:17'Carl's out in a few weeks. He wants to see you.

1:09:17 > 1:09:19'Ring me back.'

1:09:19 > 1:09:21Carl won't stop until he finds me.

1:09:21 > 1:09:23He ain't got an address for you. He don't know where you are.

1:09:23 > 1:09:26He knows people. He can find me.

1:09:26 > 1:09:27So what, are you scared of him?

1:09:27 > 1:09:29You would be, too, if you met him.

1:09:29 > 1:09:32Nah, I had Derek for a brother. I could deal with geezers like that.

1:09:32 > 1:09:36He's worse than Derek. Ten times worse than Derek.

1:09:38 > 1:09:41I don't want to go back to who I was when I was with him.

1:09:41 > 1:09:43Babe, you're nothing like that now.

1:09:43 > 1:09:45You got me and the baby.

1:09:47 > 1:09:50I'm going to protect you, all right?

1:09:50 > 1:09:51Whatever it takes.

1:09:51 > 1:09:55He ain't going to get near to you. I ain't going to let him.

1:09:56 > 1:09:59I'll never, ever let him hurt you or the baby.

1:10:00 > 1:10:01OK?

1:10:08 > 1:10:10ENGINE REVS

1:10:10 > 1:10:12Billy, get out of the way!

1:10:22 > 1:10:24Billy, get out of the way, will you?

1:10:28 > 1:10:31If you don't get out of the way, right...

1:10:31 > 1:10:33I've followed you all my life, Phil.

1:10:33 > 1:10:36I've gone everywhere you've gone. I've been to hell and back with you.

1:10:36 > 1:10:38And I ain't ever asked any questions. Not once.

1:10:39 > 1:10:42- Just always done what you wanted me to.- Listen to me...

1:10:42 > 1:10:45No, you listen to me, Phil. You're listening to me now, OK?

1:10:46 > 1:10:50Lola is 16 years old. She's still a baby.

1:10:50 > 1:10:52But she's my baby,

1:10:52 > 1:10:54and I will do whatever I have to do to protect her.

1:10:55 > 1:10:57I'd die for her.

1:10:57 > 1:10:59I would.

1:10:59 > 1:11:01I'd kill for her.

1:11:01 > 1:11:03Now, the only reason why we kept things quiet about Sharon

1:11:03 > 1:11:06was because we knew what you'd be like, right?

1:11:06 > 1:11:09It weren't meant to be malicious, it weren't meant to get your back up.

1:11:09 > 1:11:10We was just desperate.

1:11:12 > 1:11:15This is the thing, Phil, and you ain't going to like this...

1:11:16 > 1:11:18..but Lexi ain't yours.

1:11:19 > 1:11:23She ain't Ben. And she ain't going to make up for your mistakes.

1:11:24 > 1:11:25You've messed Lola around enough.

1:11:27 > 1:11:30She loves that little girl so much, it's killing her not being with her.

1:11:33 > 1:11:36So you go back in there and you stand up and you tell them that.

1:11:36 > 1:11:40You say whatever it is you have to say to get them two back together.

1:11:42 > 1:11:45Because I've followed you, Phil...

1:11:45 > 1:11:46all my life...

1:11:47 > 1:11:50..and I ain't never asked for anything.

1:11:51 > 1:11:53Well, I'm asking you now.

1:11:54 > 1:11:56Give me my family back.

1:12:20 > 1:12:22Sorry, Your Honour.

1:12:22 > 1:12:26Is there any possibility we can have a bit more time?

1:12:26 > 1:12:28We're already half an hour late.

1:12:28 > 1:12:30I just need five minutes.

1:12:33 > 1:12:37I think we can proceed, given that Mr Mitchell has an advocate here

1:12:37 > 1:12:41on his behalf, who I presume is fully prepared.

1:12:41 > 1:12:42Of course, Your Honour.

1:12:42 > 1:12:44Yes, Your Honour.

1:12:44 > 1:12:46So if we can all turn to the first document.

1:12:46 > 1:12:48It's all over, isn't it?

1:12:52 > 1:12:54- You all right?- You all right?

1:12:54 > 1:12:55Yep.

1:12:58 > 1:13:00Serviettes, eh?

1:13:00 > 1:13:02Yeah, I know, three packs for a fiver.

1:13:03 > 1:13:07Candles. Coming home at lunch time and laying the table?

1:13:07 > 1:13:09Yeah, just thought it'd save some time.

1:13:09 > 1:13:12Thought you said this weren't a big deal.

1:13:12 > 1:13:13It's not a big deal.

1:13:13 > 1:13:16Look at you, polishing your cutlery. This is such a big deal.

1:13:16 > 1:13:17I just want it to be a nice evening.

1:13:19 > 1:13:21Are you in love with him?

1:13:21 > 1:13:23Oh, I'm not going to answer that.

1:13:23 > 1:13:25Are you sure this ain't moving a bit too fast.

1:13:25 > 1:13:27Oh, from the queen who moves too fast.

1:13:27 > 1:13:29You were all for me jumping into bed with him.

1:13:29 > 1:13:31Oh, no, I wasn't. It was only a joke.

1:13:31 > 1:13:32Yes, you were.

1:13:32 > 1:13:35Was I? Well, I'm just worried you'll get hurt, that's all.

1:13:36 > 1:13:40Masood is kind and decent. He's faithful.

1:13:40 > 1:13:42He has been married to the one woman for most of his life.

1:13:42 > 1:13:45She was a right cow.

1:13:45 > 1:13:47So he's on the rebound, then.

1:13:47 > 1:13:49When are men of my age not on the rebound?

1:13:49 > 1:13:52You know, we've all got baggage.

1:13:52 > 1:13:55Some of us have got storage units of the stuff.

1:13:55 > 1:13:59It's dinner, you know? That's all it is. Trust me.

1:13:59 > 1:14:02Three for a fiver? You were ripped off.

1:14:05 > 1:14:06PHONE RINGS

1:14:10 > 1:14:13Michael, she was expecting us back ages ago.

1:14:14 > 1:14:17Once upon a time, there was a beautiful little girl.

1:14:17 > 1:14:22She was so beautiful, in fact, that an evil, jealous queen

1:14:22 > 1:14:26spirited her away and locked her in a turret where she couldn't escape.

1:14:27 > 1:14:29Then one day, her dreams came true...

1:14:31 > 1:14:33..because a great fiery dragon came...

1:14:34 > 1:14:37..full of vengeance, and he burnt that castle down.

1:14:39 > 1:14:40Yeah.

1:14:40 > 1:14:44Mr Mitchell and yourself have had interim care of Lexi.

1:14:44 > 1:14:45That's right, yeah.

1:14:45 > 1:14:48I understand Lexi has been making excellent progress under your care.

1:14:48 > 1:14:51Yeah, she's doing brilliantly.

1:14:51 > 1:14:53But that's down to Lola, too.

1:14:53 > 1:14:57Lola has been having regular supervised visits with Lexi.

1:14:57 > 1:14:58Yeah, yeah.

1:14:58 > 1:15:01Most days now, for a couple of hours at a time.

1:15:01 > 1:15:02And sometimes overnight, too.

1:15:02 > 1:15:04And you feel she's ready to take on

1:15:04 > 1:15:07a more permanent role in Lexi's life?

1:15:07 > 1:15:09Absolutely. I've got no doubt about it.

1:15:13 > 1:15:16Mr Mitchell, Your Honour.

1:15:16 > 1:15:17Please, have a seat.

1:15:31 > 1:15:33Mr Mitchell, perhaps you could clarify a few things for us.

1:15:35 > 1:15:38Mrs Rickman feels that Lola has proven herself

1:15:38 > 1:15:40to be a capable mother to Lexi.

1:15:42 > 1:15:44Is that something you'd agree with?

1:15:44 > 1:15:46LOLA MOUTHS

1:15:51 > 1:15:52Mr Mitchell?

1:16:00 > 1:16:03I couldn't think of anyone who could do a better job.

1:16:09 > 1:16:10LOLA MOUTHS

1:16:14 > 1:16:17Janine, I'm really sorry, I just got carried away talking to the mums.

1:16:17 > 1:16:20My phone was on silent so I only just got your messages.

1:16:20 > 1:16:21But we sang every song, didn't we?

1:16:21 > 1:16:25Twinkle, Twinkle. Wheels On The Bus. Lavender's Blue, Dilly Dilly.

1:16:25 > 1:16:28And she sat on my lap the whole time and she didn't go on the floor.

1:16:28 > 1:16:30Don't worry. Alice, it's fine.

1:16:30 > 1:16:32You're a godsend, you really are.

1:16:32 > 1:16:33You want a cup of tea?

1:16:33 > 1:16:35- Yeah, please.- Come on.

1:16:45 > 1:16:47I can hand her over, if you'd like.

1:16:47 > 1:16:49No, it's all right. I'll do it.

1:16:57 > 1:16:58Hello.

1:17:00 > 1:17:04Oh, baby, baby girl, hello.

1:17:04 > 1:17:06Congratulations.

1:17:06 > 1:17:09Thank you. Thank you so much.

1:17:25 > 1:17:26Oi.

1:17:26 > 1:17:29Leave it out, Mum. It's really late now.

1:17:29 > 1:17:30Yeah, I know it is.

1:17:30 > 1:17:31I'm starving.

1:17:31 > 1:17:32I know, darling.

1:17:33 > 1:17:34This is dull.

1:17:34 > 1:17:37Yeah, well, that's what you get when you do it too early on, innit?

1:17:37 > 1:17:39Well, you were the one who suggested it...

1:17:39 > 1:17:41What did you do early on?

1:17:41 > 1:17:42Played Scrabble.

1:17:42 > 1:17:44KNOCK AT DOOR

1:17:44 > 1:17:45There he is.

1:17:52 > 1:17:53Oh, thanks. They're gorgeous.

1:17:53 > 1:17:55Are you good at Scrabble?

1:17:55 > 1:17:57What?

1:17:57 > 1:17:58Nothing.

1:17:58 > 1:18:02Listen, Carol, I've just got off the phone to Syed and he's ill.

1:18:02 > 1:18:05And Christian's ill, and they've got Yasmin for the week.

1:18:05 > 1:18:08They need me so...

1:18:08 > 1:18:09Oh, right, that's OK.

1:18:09 > 1:18:12Look, I really did want to do this.

1:18:12 > 1:18:14Maybe we can go out as soon as I get back, yeah?

1:18:14 > 1:18:15Yeah, yeah, course.

1:18:15 > 1:18:17I hope you didn't go to too much trouble.

1:18:17 > 1:18:18No, no. No trouble at all.

1:18:18 > 1:18:20- Great. See you, then. - See you later.

1:18:24 > 1:18:25See, I told you.

1:18:26 > 1:18:30Oh, no. God, Mum. I'm sorry. Are you crying, Mum? I'm sorry.

1:18:30 > 1:18:32No, I'm fine, honestly. I'm fine.

1:18:32 > 1:18:34I'm embarrassed.

1:18:34 > 1:18:35I'm all right.

1:18:35 > 1:18:37We'll play Scrabble with you.

1:18:50 > 1:18:52I take one a day.

1:18:56 > 1:18:57Is that an apology?

1:18:57 > 1:18:59I don't do apologies.

1:18:59 > 1:19:02You'll get knocked up. I know you will.

1:19:02 > 1:19:04You'll be fine. Just don't want it too much.

1:19:04 > 1:19:06If you want it too much, it won't happen.

1:19:11 > 1:19:13Hold on. Oi, oi, you're working, aren't you?

1:19:13 > 1:19:14Morning sickness.

1:19:18 > 1:19:20I can't stop looking at her.

1:19:20 > 1:19:22Neither can I.

1:19:22 > 1:19:24I just keep thinking someone's going to knock on the door

1:19:24 > 1:19:26and say it's been a big mistake.

1:19:28 > 1:19:30No.

1:19:30 > 1:19:32That ain't never going to happen again.

1:19:34 > 1:19:36Are you crying?

1:19:36 > 1:19:39Eh? No, course I ain't. Don't be soppy.

1:19:40 > 1:19:44Sorry. You're going to set me off now. You big softie.

1:19:49 > 1:19:51Yeah.

1:20:00 > 1:20:02I don't know what's wrong with me.

1:20:05 > 1:20:07There's nothing wrong with you, Mum.

1:20:09 > 1:20:13Except you've got a daughter that's a bit of a cow sometimes.

1:21:00 > 1:21:03GUNSHOTS ON TV

1:21:14 > 1:21:16I knew she'd win.

1:21:16 > 1:21:19No, you didn't. Anyway, listen. Congratulations, Pops.

1:21:19 > 1:21:22Yes, I did. I did!

1:21:22 > 1:21:24Very nice. Open it now, shall I?

1:21:24 > 1:21:25Yeah. You were panicking.

1:21:25 > 1:21:27Yeah, you was definitely panicking.

1:21:27 > 1:21:28Yeah. Even so. She had my lucky teddy.

1:21:28 > 1:21:31Yeah, cos everything's down to your teddy, innit?

1:21:31 > 1:21:32No, shut up. It works.

1:21:32 > 1:21:34- Yeah, it does, actually. - Is she in there?

1:21:34 > 1:21:36Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait.

1:21:37 > 1:21:39Just give her a minute, yeah?

1:21:41 > 1:21:43And now it's time to say night-night.

1:21:46 > 1:21:50And you tell me, what do we say when we go to bed?

1:21:50 > 1:21:53We say night-night, Pops, night-night, Mummy...

1:21:55 > 1:21:57Night-night, Lexi.

1:21:58 > 1:22:01Mummy'll see you in the morning.

1:22:23 > 1:22:25What you got there?

1:22:28 > 1:22:31Well, it was...a surprise breakfast, but...

1:22:31 > 1:22:33Oh...

1:22:34 > 1:22:35Right.

1:22:36 > 1:22:38Why? What did you think it was?

1:22:39 > 1:22:42Oh, nothing. I don't know, I just...

1:22:47 > 1:22:50'I'm going to keep calling you till you answer.

1:22:50 > 1:22:52'Carl's out in a few weeks. He wants to see you.

1:22:52 > 1:22:54'Ring me back.'

1:22:59 > 1:23:01This is going to end.

1:23:01 > 1:23:02Now.

1:23:04 > 1:23:06ADAM'S PHONE RINGS

1:23:06 > 1:23:08- 'About time you rang...' - Oi, you listen to me, all right?

1:23:08 > 1:23:11She ain't interested in seeing your brother. Do you understand me?

1:23:11 > 1:23:14Do you understand me? Oi, are you there?

1:23:14 > 1:23:17PHONE DISCONNECTS

1:23:18 > 1:23:19ADAM'S PHONE RINGS

1:23:19 > 1:23:23- 'This is Adam. You know what to do.' - Just leave it!

1:23:25 > 1:23:26He'll call back.

1:23:26 > 1:23:28Max!

1:23:55 > 1:23:57Well, this is a real treat, innit?

1:24:03 > 1:24:04Abi...

1:24:10 > 1:24:13Well, thank you, darling. That was a really lovely idea.

1:24:13 > 1:24:15It was just breakfast.

1:24:15 > 1:24:18No... Thank you.

1:24:18 > 1:24:24And, um, I'm really sorry I thought it was... I thought you were...

1:24:24 > 1:24:27- Yeah.- Anyway, what are you up to today?

1:24:27 > 1:24:29I don't know.

1:24:29 > 1:24:32Well, maybe you could have another look at that essay?

1:24:32 > 1:24:34- Mmm-hmm.- Yeah?

1:24:50 > 1:24:52'This is Adam. You know what to do.'

1:24:54 > 1:24:57Still going through to the answer machine.

1:25:00 > 1:25:02You wading in like that is only going to make it worse.

1:25:02 > 1:25:07Leave it to me. I'll tell Adam that Carl's just wasting his time,

1:25:07 > 1:25:10- me and him are finished. - Right. How you going to do that if he ain't picking up?

1:25:10 > 1:25:12I'll leave a message.

1:25:14 > 1:25:17- 'This is Adam. You know what to do.' - Go on, then.

1:25:22 > 1:25:23Hello, mate. I'm interested in a 4x4...

1:25:23 > 1:25:27- Yeah, yeah. I'll be out in a sec, all right?- Fine.

1:25:27 > 1:25:31I know it's hard to concentrate on things like work, when you're...

1:25:31 > 1:25:33When...what?

1:25:33 > 1:25:36I'm just trying to say that I do understand how you feel.

1:25:36 > 1:25:41And if you ever want to talk about it...about Joey, then...

1:25:41 > 1:25:42Mum, can you please stop

1:25:42 > 1:25:44going on about Joey, all right?! I am over him!

1:25:49 > 1:25:51Reminds me of someone else that age.

1:26:00 > 1:26:01Oh, ho! Yeah, man, I'm starving...

1:26:01 > 1:26:03Oh, no, no, no - this is for Raymond.

1:26:03 > 1:26:05Are we all getting room service from now on?

1:26:05 > 1:26:08So, three nights out of three he's stayed over?

1:26:08 > 1:26:10Is it? Oh, hadn't noticed...

1:26:10 > 1:26:12Is it getting serious, Kim?!

1:26:12 > 1:26:15I know it's early days, but... I think we're back on.

1:26:15 > 1:26:17Oh, come on! Why didn't you wake me?!

1:26:17 > 1:26:20You need the sleep. All this rushing about.

1:26:20 > 1:26:22- Look, I made you breakfast.- No time.

1:26:22 > 1:26:26Hey, man, she went to a whole heap of trouble for that, you know.

1:26:26 > 1:26:28Listen, Sasha's run out of school blouses

1:26:28 > 1:26:30so I've got to buy her some before I go to work.

1:26:30 > 1:26:32- Then I've got to be at the Vic for a delivery...- OK.

1:26:32 > 1:26:34- ..which I'm going to miss if I don't move!- Well, slow down!

1:26:34 > 1:26:38- Look, I'll get them. I'll get the blouses.- Yeah?- Yeah.

1:26:38 > 1:26:40OK...you know her sizes?

1:26:40 > 1:26:42Teenage sizes?

1:26:42 > 1:26:44D'you know what, forget it. I'll do it myself.

1:26:44 > 1:26:46I'll take a picture of her to the shop!

1:26:46 > 1:26:47DOOR SLAMS

1:26:47 > 1:26:49See ya!

1:26:53 > 1:26:55He can be a bit grumpy in the mornings, you know.

1:26:55 > 1:26:57It's no biggie.

1:27:00 > 1:27:02Talking of grumpy...

1:27:02 > 1:27:04You and Phil...

1:27:04 > 1:27:06- Is it all over, then?- Kim...

1:27:06 > 1:27:09- Well, I think we'll be moving back fairly soon.- Oh!- Yeah.

1:27:13 > 1:27:15VOICES ON TV

1:27:22 > 1:27:23TV GOES OFF

1:27:26 > 1:27:30Now, listen to me, young lady. You're going to be a mother one day

1:27:30 > 1:27:34and you're going to worry yourself sick about your kids.

1:27:34 > 1:27:37You're going to worry when they're tiny and they get a cold

1:27:37 > 1:27:39or when they're grown up and they get cancer.

1:27:39 > 1:27:43You're going to be CONSUMED with worry. Just like your mum.

1:27:43 > 1:27:47If she's so worried about me then why does she keep bringing up Joey?

1:27:47 > 1:27:51- She's rubbing it in my face. - She's not rubbing it in your face!

1:27:51 > 1:27:54It's her way of trying to help!

1:27:54 > 1:27:57Your mum's got a lot on her plate at the moment

1:27:57 > 1:28:02and sometimes she says things and they come out the wrong way.

1:28:03 > 1:28:05Don't give up so easily.

1:28:21 > 1:28:23Can I get a cup of tea please, Luce?

1:28:23 > 1:28:25Yeah, no problem.

1:28:29 > 1:28:31This seat's tak...

1:28:33 > 1:28:34I've had an idea.

1:28:34 > 1:28:37Y'know, whilst you sort things out with Phil,

1:28:37 > 1:28:40why don't you just stay at the flat? I'll crash at Tanya's.

1:28:40 > 1:28:42- I don't think so.- Come on.

1:28:42 > 1:28:45It can't be good for Dennis being cooped up in the B&B.

1:28:45 > 1:28:48Don't tell me how to bring up my son, please.

1:28:48 > 1:28:49Sharon.

1:28:51 > 1:28:52Just think about it.

1:29:13 > 1:29:15Yeah, well, what do you need me for?

1:29:15 > 1:29:18All right, then, I'll be there in 20 minutes.

1:29:18 > 1:29:20Where are you going to be in 20 minutes?

1:29:20 > 1:29:22- Sasha's not well. She's got a tummy bug.- Really?

1:29:22 > 1:29:24- Is it OK if I shoot off?- Er... - Fats! Listen, mate,

1:29:24 > 1:29:27- you good at cheese toasties? - I'm good at eating 'em, brother!

1:29:27 > 1:29:30- How long? - Couple of hours, tops, yeah?

1:29:30 > 1:29:33- Yeah, all right.- Cheers. Thank you, thank you.- Yeah.

1:29:33 > 1:29:35Here you are, Fats.

1:29:35 > 1:29:38- What, you want me in the kitchen?! - Yeah.

1:29:38 > 1:29:40Nah, nah, nah, that ain't in my job description, all right?

1:29:40 > 1:29:42These hands are made for Poppy,

1:29:42 > 1:29:45- not for pots and pans!- Get in the kitchen.- Nice one, Fats.- No worries.

1:29:45 > 1:29:48- They're too soft for the kitchen. - Get in the kitchen!- I can't cook!

1:29:48 > 1:29:50So, how was her night?

1:29:50 > 1:29:53Yeah, she was good. She did wake up a few times, though...

1:29:53 > 1:29:55Probably the move. You know, a bit unsettled.

1:29:55 > 1:29:57No, she was just hungry, that's all.

1:29:57 > 1:30:00Give her a few ounces and she was back off again.

1:30:00 > 1:30:03Phil, you can see her any time, you know.

1:30:03 > 1:30:07No, it's all right. I'm really busy down the Arches, anyway.

1:30:07 > 1:30:11- Oh. Right, I'll see you later then, yeah?- OK, see you later.

1:30:11 > 1:30:13- Bye, Granddad Phil.- Bye-bye.- Bye.

1:30:21 > 1:30:24So, is he going to get Carl to back off or what?

1:30:24 > 1:30:25What did Adam say?

1:30:25 > 1:30:27Look, I've thought about it and we should ignore him.

1:30:27 > 1:30:30- He'll go away eventually. - You've changed your tune!

1:30:30 > 1:30:32Leave it, Max, please!

1:30:35 > 1:30:37There you go, thanks very much. Bye.

1:30:39 > 1:30:43- Peace offering of the cake variety. - Oh...

1:30:43 > 1:30:45And that's not all...

1:30:45 > 1:30:47Well done, darling. That's great.

1:30:47 > 1:30:49Can we do the whole cake thing later?

1:30:49 > 1:30:52Lola's off with Lexi at the moment and I am absolutely snowed under.

1:30:52 > 1:30:55- Hello! You all right?- I can give you a hand if you want?

1:30:55 > 1:30:57We could spend some time together?

1:30:58 > 1:31:01Yeah? Yeah. Thank you.

1:31:06 > 1:31:09So, what you going to do, then? About this Carl?

1:31:09 > 1:31:13Don't know, bruv. She wants me to stay out of it, doesn't she?

1:31:14 > 1:31:17What, and you really believe that's what she wants? Do you know what I'd do?

1:31:17 > 1:31:20Don't know. Stand her up at the alter?

1:31:20 > 1:31:23- Bit late for that, already married. - You're hilarious, you are.

1:31:23 > 1:31:25Well, come on then, what?

1:31:26 > 1:31:29There's a reason she's gone with a geezer like that in the first place.

1:31:29 > 1:31:32- Right, and why's that?- She likes tough men, doesn't she?

1:31:32 > 1:31:35She wants people that can look after her.

1:31:35 > 1:31:38- So you want to sort that one out. - Yeah.

1:31:41 > 1:31:44I reckon these are going to be flying out the doors now.

1:31:44 > 1:31:45You just wait.

1:31:47 > 1:31:48- Hiya.- Hi.

1:31:48 > 1:31:50Any chance I could get my nails done this afternoon?

1:31:50 > 1:31:53- Me and Lucy are going out later. - Yeah.

1:31:53 > 1:31:56Poppy's free after lunch, if you want to pop back at two?

1:31:56 > 1:31:58Yeah, great. Thanks.

1:32:04 > 1:32:07Darling, I'm sure you could sort things out

1:32:07 > 1:32:09if you just talked to each other.

1:32:09 > 1:32:11What? Mum, I've got loads of mates, haven't I?

1:32:11 > 1:32:13Really...?

1:32:13 > 1:32:15Er, yes, Hannah?

1:32:15 > 1:32:18- Oh, right, from college, with your essay notes?- Yes.

1:32:18 > 1:32:21And she's actually invited me round for dinner tonight,

1:32:21 > 1:32:24- so, is that all right? - Of course it is. Yeah.

1:32:24 > 1:32:26Lovely.

1:32:28 > 1:32:31- So, Sasha's all right, then? - Yeah.

1:32:31 > 1:32:34- The school nurse just reckons it's a 24-hour bug.- OK.

1:32:34 > 1:32:39Well, I got three different sizes, in case one doesn't fit...

1:32:39 > 1:32:45And... I know she's going to love these... Nice, innit?

1:32:45 > 1:32:47They're lovely. Thank you.

1:32:47 > 1:32:50Listen, I'm really sorry about earlier.

1:32:50 > 1:32:52That's OK. That's all right.

1:32:52 > 1:32:55Look, how about if I cook dinner for you tonight?

1:32:55 > 1:32:59And then for dessert, I could give you one of my...

1:32:59 > 1:33:00massages...

1:33:00 > 1:33:03Two bean burgers, one with mayo, one without, yeah?

1:33:03 > 1:33:06- Easy, Rox.- Hey, Kim. - I better crack on, babe.- OK.

1:33:10 > 1:33:13KIM SIGHS

1:33:14 > 1:33:17There you go, my gorgeous girl. Come here.

1:33:17 > 1:33:20Urgh! Get a room, you two! It's disgusting!

1:33:22 > 1:33:25- Thank you.- That's all right, baby. Do you want some ice?

1:33:25 > 1:33:29Arthur, I'll have a sweet sherry, just a small one,

1:33:29 > 1:33:32for medicinal purposes, because I never touch alcohol -

1:33:32 > 1:33:36- but with the news I've got today... - Oh, what's happened?

1:33:36 > 1:33:38Well, you know me, Poppy, I ain't one to gossip,

1:33:38 > 1:33:41but I've just come from the church.

1:33:41 > 1:33:43And Brenda Roberts, church warden,

1:33:43 > 1:33:47she's been caught with her hand in the collection plate

1:33:47 > 1:33:50- and given her marching orders. - That's terrible!

1:33:50 > 1:33:54- Yeah, bad Brenda! - 27 years, she's been there.

1:33:54 > 1:33:57I mean, you think you know a person, but you don't.

1:33:57 > 1:34:01And I think now she's gone, the vicar was hinting for my help.

1:34:01 > 1:34:04So what, he wants you to become the new church warden?

1:34:04 > 1:34:07- Oh!- Well, he didn't say so in so many words,

1:34:07 > 1:34:10- but reading between the lines... - I think you'd be brilliant.

1:34:10 > 1:34:13Oh, Poppy, no, I don't think my legs are up to it.

1:34:13 > 1:34:16But wait, wait, wait! This is the big guy, all right? This is God we're talking about!

1:34:16 > 1:34:18It's not like a shift at the launderette!

1:34:18 > 1:34:21Yeah, but Brenda's been there 27 years...

1:34:21 > 1:34:24Yes, and if there's anyone who can fill her shoes,

1:34:24 > 1:34:26it's you, Mrs Branning.

1:34:26 > 1:34:30Well, I suppose her rock cakes ain't up to much.

1:34:30 > 1:34:33And she made a terrible mess of the flower rota the other week.

1:34:33 > 1:34:38- I could perhaps improve them areas. - See, there you go!

1:34:38 > 1:34:40- Hee-hee!- Oh. Ta.

1:34:40 > 1:34:42- Thanks very much.- Thank you. - See you.

1:34:50 > 1:34:52You've more than earned it.

1:34:52 > 1:34:54And you can't go to Hannah's empty-handed, can you?

1:34:54 > 1:34:57Get yourself some chocolates or dessert or something or...

1:34:57 > 1:34:59maybe a bottle of wine.

1:35:00 > 1:35:02Well...

1:35:02 > 1:35:04- If there's any nice lads there... - Mum!

1:35:04 > 1:35:07You've got to get yourself back out there, haven't you?

1:35:07 > 1:35:11And if they've got any single dads, give 'em my number!

1:35:11 > 1:35:14- See you later.- Have a nice time.

1:35:36 > 1:35:39How many times has she been sick?

1:35:39 > 1:35:41OK. No, I can't just leave!

1:35:43 > 1:35:47All right, all right. I'll be there as soon as I've finished work.

1:35:47 > 1:35:48- Bye.- Ray!

1:35:48 > 1:35:51- What, they lost their appetite? - What? No.

1:35:51 > 1:35:54It's just veggies don't tend to like it when they get a gobful of cow.

1:35:54 > 1:35:57- I'll do them again.- No, no, no, don't worry about it.

1:35:57 > 1:36:00They're just burger snobs. It's fine.

1:36:00 > 1:36:03- Look, it's not fine. It's not. - Ray?

1:36:03 > 1:36:07If you need a little bit of time off, you just have to ask, that's all.

1:36:09 > 1:36:13Look, if Amy needed you, you'd do anything to be with her, right?

1:36:13 > 1:36:16- Yeah. I'd be there like a shot. - Exactly.

1:36:16 > 1:36:18And you'd stay with her, right?

1:36:20 > 1:36:23Yes... What are you getting at, Ray?

1:36:23 > 1:36:26I'm sorry, Rox, man, but I'm going to have to...

1:36:26 > 1:36:29- You're going to quit. - I think I have to.

1:36:29 > 1:36:32Rox... Phone for you, babe.

1:36:32 > 1:36:35Yeah, OK, Fats.

1:36:37 > 1:36:41Look, Ray, I'll be really sorry to see you go, but I get it. I do.

1:36:41 > 1:36:42Thanks.

1:36:44 > 1:36:45OK.

1:36:49 > 1:36:52Ray...you listen to me.

1:36:52 > 1:36:56She's not there to make your breakfast and do your shopping.

1:36:56 > 1:37:00- Sorry?- Look, now, man, you're going to break Kim's heart.

1:37:00 > 1:37:03You better go gentle. And I mean that.

1:37:42 > 1:37:45Well, well. The ginger whinger returns for another pounding.

1:37:45 > 1:37:47You listen to me. You tell your brother

1:37:47 > 1:37:50that Kirsty ain't interested in seeing him. Do you hear me?

1:37:50 > 1:37:52- She's moved on.- We'll see.

1:37:56 > 1:37:59These phone calls - they're going to stop.

1:38:00 > 1:38:02MAX GRUNTS

1:38:02 > 1:38:04You listen to me!

1:38:04 > 1:38:06ADAM GROANS

1:38:06 > 1:38:08That's enough, that's enough.

1:38:10 > 1:38:13I'm telling you, all right? The pair of you.

1:38:13 > 1:38:15Just leave her alone.

1:38:22 > 1:38:25- You all right?- Yeah, yeah, I had it covered, didn't I?

1:38:37 > 1:38:39Oh, you're back early!

1:38:39 > 1:38:41Look at this.

1:38:43 > 1:38:45Pressed to perfection.

1:38:46 > 1:38:50Domestic goddess or what?! Thank you.

1:38:54 > 1:38:56Is Sasha OK?

1:38:58 > 1:38:59Then what's wrong, baby?

1:39:02 > 1:39:04What?

1:39:06 > 1:39:09I, erm... I quit.

1:39:09 > 1:39:11- Quit what?- The Vic.

1:39:12 > 1:39:14Why?!

1:39:14 > 1:39:17Look, babes, I couldn't do it all any more.

1:39:17 > 1:39:19I mean, all this running around, it's doing my head in...

1:39:19 > 1:39:22- It's OK... I get it.- Yeah?

1:39:22 > 1:39:28Yeah. I mean, she's family, you know. She comes before everything.

1:39:28 > 1:39:30I'd do the same if it was Denise.

1:39:33 > 1:39:35So, I...

1:39:35 > 1:39:37I thought it would...

1:39:37 > 1:39:39make sense if I lived near her.

1:39:44 > 1:39:46Yeah...

1:39:46 > 1:39:48Yeah, you're totally right.

1:39:55 > 1:39:59- Ah, I'm really pleased for you, Tan. Lauren's a good girl.- Yeah, she is.

1:39:59 > 1:40:02And I think she's really turned a corner, you know.

1:40:08 > 1:40:11What went so bad that you had to move into the B&B?

1:40:11 > 1:40:14Just stress with Lexi.

1:40:14 > 1:40:18Well, you know what Phil's like, always lashing out at someone.

1:40:18 > 1:40:20Tan, I won't be a sec.

1:40:27 > 1:40:32OK, yeah, I'll see you then. Yep.

1:40:32 > 1:40:35You shouldn't be back here, Sharon.

1:40:35 > 1:40:37I was just checking you were OK.

1:40:37 > 1:40:40- Why wouldn't I be? - The house must be quiet.

1:40:40 > 1:40:44- I like quiet.- Denny was asking after you.

1:40:44 > 1:40:48Phil, I was thinking that maybe now the court case was over,

1:40:48 > 1:40:52- we could have...- We could what? Go back to playing happy families?

1:40:52 > 1:40:54Well, we were happy, weren't we?

1:40:54 > 1:40:56Come on, why punish us all for one stupid mistake?

1:40:56 > 1:40:59I'm sorry, Sharon, but nothing's changed.

1:41:12 > 1:41:15Um... All right. I'll just leave you to it, OK?

1:41:15 > 1:41:18My granddad's shed, weren't it?

1:41:18 > 1:41:20Yeah.

1:41:22 > 1:41:23May I?

1:41:23 > 1:41:25Yeah.

1:41:48 > 1:41:50Sorry, you better get off me.

1:41:50 > 1:41:53My grumpy husband'll be home any minute.

1:41:53 > 1:41:55Is that right? Come here.

1:41:57 > 1:41:59Come here.

1:42:02 > 1:42:04What have you done?

1:42:04 > 1:42:07Nothing. I've just sorted it all out, haven't I?

1:42:07 > 1:42:09- Sorted it? - Yeah. I went to see Adam.

1:42:10 > 1:42:14- You did what?- Babe, it's fine, all right? I had Jack with me, so...

1:42:14 > 1:42:16You idiot, Max!

1:42:27 > 1:42:30I just thought, after everything, we had something.

1:42:30 > 1:42:32Come on...

1:42:32 > 1:42:36We did...we do.

1:42:36 > 1:42:37Hm?

1:42:38 > 1:42:41But like you said, it's not about us...it's...

1:42:41 > 1:42:43..About Sasha. I know.

1:42:45 > 1:42:49Look, I'm sorry, I'm just being selfish.

1:42:49 > 1:42:51Listen, you ain't got to apologise.

1:42:53 > 1:42:57You've been the most amazing thing for me these past few days.

1:42:58 > 1:43:01Honestly, the only thing that's kept me sane.

1:43:03 > 1:43:05I don't know what I'll do without you.

1:43:07 > 1:43:11I tell you what, why don't I hide you away in my suitcase?

1:43:12 > 1:43:14- Really?- Really what?

1:43:14 > 1:43:17You really want me to come away with you?

1:43:17 > 1:43:21Well, of course I would... but...you've got the B&B, right...

1:43:21 > 1:43:24I know you've got to make your own money, you've got bills to pay...

1:43:24 > 1:43:28- I know it's not as straightforward as that.... - All right, I'll come away with you.

1:43:28 > 1:43:32- Are you serious? - I'm serious! I'm serious!

1:43:34 > 1:43:37You should go and see him. He'd like that very much.

1:43:37 > 1:43:41Your granddad lights up like a Christmas tree whenever he hears your name.

1:43:41 > 1:43:43He's proud of you, you know.

1:43:43 > 1:43:46Yeah, he's got nothing to be proud of, though.

1:43:46 > 1:43:49Now that ain't true at all.

1:43:50 > 1:43:53Tell me something, what you did today? Hm?

1:43:55 > 1:43:57I finished an important essay.

1:43:57 > 1:43:59There, you see!

1:43:59 > 1:44:02Then I ruined it by lying to my mum about tonight.

1:44:02 > 1:44:07- Why? - Because lying will hurt her less.

1:44:09 > 1:44:12Honesty is the best policy. Just be honest with her.

1:44:12 > 1:44:15A mother will always understand, you know.

1:44:15 > 1:44:17OK, it might be painful, yes,

1:44:17 > 1:44:19but sometimes the truth is all you've got.

1:44:21 > 1:44:25- OK... Well, if it's all about the truth...- Hmm?

1:44:26 > 1:44:29..what's going on with you and my nan?

1:44:30 > 1:44:34Come on, what, you've never played Truth Or Dare?

1:44:34 > 1:44:36- Is she a good kisser?- Hey!

1:44:36 > 1:44:40- A gentleman never tells. - She is!

1:44:43 > 1:44:47All right, well, my turn...

1:44:47 > 1:44:49I choose truth.

1:44:53 > 1:44:55OK, my question is this.

1:44:57 > 1:44:59Why did you lie?

1:44:59 > 1:45:02What's so bad that a beautiful young lady like you

1:45:02 > 1:45:05wants to spend your Friday night on an allotment,

1:45:05 > 1:45:07drinking with an old man, hmm?

1:45:10 > 1:45:12Because I have no friends.

1:45:14 > 1:45:18My ex boyfriend, that I'm obviously completely still in love with,

1:45:18 > 1:45:20will not even answer my calls.

1:45:23 > 1:45:28And my whole life is just pretty... pretty rubbish, really,

1:45:28 > 1:45:31and every time I try and fix it, I just...

1:45:31 > 1:45:33I end up hurting someone else.

1:45:36 > 1:45:40Anyway, your turn - truth or dare?

1:45:43 > 1:45:46I dare you to go home, talk to your mother.

1:45:48 > 1:45:50You don't belong here.

1:46:11 > 1:46:13So what, you're not talking to me now?

1:46:15 > 1:46:18I try and help and this is the thanks I get.

1:46:52 > 1:46:53I will protect you.

1:46:55 > 1:46:57Both of you.

1:46:59 > 1:47:00I promise.

1:47:25 > 1:47:28You're home early. I wasn't expecting you yet.

1:47:28 > 1:47:30How was your dinner?

1:47:30 > 1:47:34- What's wrong? - It's Hannah.

1:47:34 > 1:47:37You haven't fallen out with her as well, have you?

1:47:37 > 1:47:39She...isn't real.

1:47:41 > 1:47:43- What?- I made her up.

1:47:43 > 1:47:45Why would you do that?

1:47:45 > 1:47:49Because you were right when you said I didn't have no mates.

1:47:52 > 1:47:53So where have you been all night?

1:47:53 > 1:47:55Granddad's allotment.

1:47:55 > 1:47:57Who with?

1:47:58 > 1:48:00No-one.

1:48:02 > 1:48:06What have you been doing there, then...?

1:48:06 > 1:48:08Have you been drinking?

1:48:08 > 1:48:10Yes, Mum.

1:48:10 > 1:48:12Oh, come on, everyone has a drink!

1:48:12 > 1:48:15Not on their own, in a shed, they don't!

1:48:15 > 1:48:17D'you know what? Forget it!

1:48:17 > 1:48:19Lauren!

1:48:24 > 1:48:27When was the last time you went a whole day without alcohol?

1:48:30 > 1:48:32You don't remember, do you?

1:48:32 > 1:48:36I don't have a problem, all right, Mum?

1:48:36 > 1:48:38- No?- No!

1:48:39 > 1:48:42Lauren, are you sure this isn't becoming a problem?

1:48:42 > 1:48:44No, it's not.

1:48:45 > 1:48:47Because I can stop.

1:48:47 > 1:48:48- Really?- Yes.- Good.

1:48:48 > 1:48:51Well, do that, then - do it now. Don't drink that. Pour it away.

1:48:59 > 1:49:01Lauren, what is so bad in your life

1:49:01 > 1:49:04- that you want to chuck it away? - Mum, why are you being so dramatic?

1:49:04 > 1:49:07Have you forgotten what this has done to your Auntie Rainie?

1:49:07 > 1:49:12Have you? Tell me! Tell me, why are you doing all this?

1:49:12 > 1:49:14Do you really want to know?

1:49:17 > 1:49:19Because I want to, OK?

1:49:21 > 1:49:24Because it's my choice and I like it.

1:49:24 > 1:49:26In fact, I like it a lot.

1:49:26 > 1:49:31And I'm not going to stop and there is nothing you can do about it!

1:49:31 > 1:49:34Is that honest enough for you?
