0:00:36 > 0:00:38ALFIE SIGHS Well?

0:00:39 > 0:00:42I've been charged with perjury.

0:00:42 > 0:00:43Got to go back to court in a few weeks.

0:00:47 > 0:00:48Don't worry.

0:00:48 > 0:00:51Duty solicitor reckons I'll just get a slap on the wrist, no more.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Unless you get a tough judge.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56Then, Kat, you're going to be looking at a prison sentence.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59The important thing is that we're all together. And guess what?

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Janine's solicitor told me that she's dropped the charges.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03You're in the clear.

0:01:03 > 0:01:04That's brilliant!

0:01:05 > 0:01:09- So it was worth it in the end.- Yeah.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12Listen, I'm going to get changed for work.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14Bit early to open the van.

0:01:14 > 0:01:17Yeah. There's just a lot I've got to sort out.

0:01:20 > 0:01:22He'll get over it, you know Alfie.

0:01:22 > 0:01:24So, what now?

0:01:24 > 0:01:26You going back to your mum's?

0:01:26 > 0:01:28No. She's staying here with us.

0:01:28 > 0:01:30Aren't you?

0:01:30 > 0:01:32I hadn't really thought about it.

0:01:32 > 0:01:35I know Mum'd love to spend time with Lily.

0:01:35 > 0:01:36She's been on the blower enough times.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39Hold on - Jean is just a train ride away,

0:01:39 > 0:01:42and it's not as if she's on her own. She's doing great with Ollie.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45There's no reason why you can't pick up where you left off.

0:01:45 > 0:01:47Everyone'll know that Janine lied about you stabbing her.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49You've done nothing wrong.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53There's so much here for you, Stace.

0:01:53 > 0:01:55A cousin for Lily to grow up with.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58Two more on the way. You got your job on the stall.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01This is where you belong.

0:02:01 > 0:02:05Look, Janine's got her happy ending - now it's your turn, yeah?

0:02:07 > 0:02:09Morning, Mrs B. Sleep well?

0:02:09 > 0:02:12Ugh, hardly slept a wink.

0:02:12 > 0:02:16I think I've got one of my migraines coming on.

0:02:16 > 0:02:17DOORBELL RINGS

0:02:17 > 0:02:19Who's that?

0:02:19 > 0:02:22Don't worry about it. I'll get it, all right?

0:02:37 > 0:02:39What are you doing here so early?

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Don't need a reason to visit, do I?

0:02:41 > 0:02:44No, I suppose not. Ooh, I'll get you some breakfast.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47How about I get you some breakfast? You're the one needs looking after.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49No, I'm all right with this, thank you very much.

0:02:49 > 0:02:53So listen, Mrs B, why don't I take the day off work

0:02:53 > 0:02:55and come with you to see the vicar?

0:02:55 > 0:02:59You know, to help sort out the funeral arrangements.

0:02:59 > 0:03:03I think... I think I'll put it off till tomorrow.

0:03:03 > 0:03:07Cos I've got a lot of housework to catch up on.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10You know, we can help with that.

0:03:10 > 0:03:12No. There is no need.

0:03:14 > 0:03:15All right. OK.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25She was like this all day yesterday.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28There's not many people around here falling over themselves

0:03:28 > 0:03:30to, you know, offer condolences.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32I think it's really getting to her.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39If you don't eat that, I will.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44What is wrong with you today?

0:03:44 > 0:03:46You been having that nightmare again?

0:03:46 > 0:03:48What nightmare?

0:03:48 > 0:03:51Tam keeps dreaming he's being attacked by a refuse truck.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53I had that dream once.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57Once, OK?! And it was a big truck, with proper teeth.

0:03:57 > 0:03:58I'm going.

0:03:58 > 0:04:02Listen, watch out for those street sweepers. They're like ninjas!

0:04:02 > 0:04:04You know, a little bit of sensitivity wouldn't go amiss.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06He's still raw about Alice.

0:04:06 > 0:04:07Why? She got off.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10Yeah, but she should never have been on trial in the first place.

0:04:10 > 0:04:14Er, she did stab a bloke, after plotting to kill his wife, so...

0:04:14 > 0:04:17Yeah, but she's a nice girl.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19He wouldn't have gone out with her otherwise.

0:04:19 > 0:04:21They weren't even together any more.

0:04:21 > 0:04:22Yeah, but all the same,

0:04:22 > 0:04:25we should try and find a way to cheer him up.

0:04:25 > 0:04:30Fine. Fine. I'll do aloo gobi for lunch.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32Might take a bit more than that.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34He loves my aloo gobi.

0:04:34 > 0:04:35OK.

0:04:46 > 0:04:47Ready?

0:04:47 > 0:04:49I don't think this is a very good idea.

0:04:49 > 0:04:50Come on, it'll be all right.

0:04:53 > 0:04:54Hello, Stacey!

0:04:54 > 0:04:57I haven't seen you for a couple of years. How've you been?

0:04:57 > 0:04:59Yeah, good. Are you living round here now?

0:04:59 > 0:05:00Yeah. Can't keep away.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02- See you.- See you later.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04See, I told you people would be fine.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07- What brought her back here? - Phil Mitchell.

0:05:07 > 0:05:08Then it was Jack, for a while.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10Then he dumped her and it was Phil again.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12Now they're opening a bar together

0:05:12 > 0:05:15and rumour has it it's going to be called The Last Chance Saloon!

0:05:15 > 0:05:16THEY LAUGH

0:05:20 > 0:05:21So she's sticking round, then?

0:05:21 > 0:05:23Yeah, you know, Kat wants her to stay.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26Listen, I'm really glad that Stacey's in the clear, course I am,

0:05:26 > 0:05:28but it's not done my marriage any favours.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31You can hardly judge Kat for telling porkies, can you?

0:05:31 > 0:05:34I'm taking it she still don't know about the van?

0:05:34 > 0:05:35No, I'm going to need to 'fess up.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38At least then I stand a chance of keeping my wedding tackle,

0:05:38 > 0:05:41- you know what I'm saying? - Nah, you sop, you keep it quiet!

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Look, that Nicole bird, she's long gone, right?

0:05:43 > 0:05:46So Kat ain't going to find out anything from her, is she?

0:05:46 > 0:05:49Just give it a few days, you'll find another van -

0:05:49 > 0:05:51you'll find a better van.

0:05:51 > 0:05:56Come on - you're Alfie Moon. You'll come up with something.

0:05:56 > 0:05:57Yeah.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Yeah, you're right.

0:06:01 > 0:06:02Is that all you have?

0:06:02 > 0:06:04Yeah.

0:06:04 > 0:06:05Just as well you're in the box room.

0:06:05 > 0:06:08Hang on - I thought we agreed I was taking the double.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11That was before you offered to pay only half the deposit.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15Do you want the room or not?

0:06:15 > 0:06:18- Yeah.- Good.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20What's the matter with you?

0:06:20 > 0:06:22What, you got a death wish, have you? Coming back round here.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24I'm just looking to bed down somewhere,

0:06:24 > 0:06:26get a job and rebuild my life.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28I've got no intentions of going near Lauren.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30THUNDER ROLLS

0:06:37 > 0:06:39What did you say to him?

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Oh, what, you knew he was back, did you?

0:06:41 > 0:06:43There's nothing going on, and nothing's going to.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46- I've moved on.- Yeah, well, that's what you think, Lauren,

0:06:46 > 0:06:48but some people get in your head and they stay there.

0:06:56 > 0:06:57That's the boss.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00He's better looking than Lister but he's a real slimeball.

0:07:00 > 0:07:01Steer well clear.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03It's too soon for all that, anyway.

0:07:03 > 0:07:04It's never too soon!

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Tamwar's still single.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10You're funny.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14Your stall's out of its allocated zone.

0:07:14 > 0:07:15What?

0:07:15 > 0:07:17Yeah. It should be two inches to the left.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19So move it, otherwise you'll face a fine.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21- Are you serious? - Yes, cos those are the rules.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24I know rules don't mean much to you - I heard what happened in court -

0:07:24 > 0:07:28but... move it, please. Now.

0:07:28 > 0:07:32- BIANCA:- Well, I was hoping they might have kept you locked up!

0:07:32 > 0:07:33Look, I'm sorry, B.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35- I know how you must feel... - You reckon?

0:07:35 > 0:07:39My mum was right about you, Kat - you are a selfish, lying little cow.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41And you come back here like nothing's happened?

0:07:41 > 0:07:43Well, I hope she was worth it.

0:07:43 > 0:07:44I just want to put this right.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46I'm sorting out a rota for the stall.

0:07:46 > 0:07:47You know what? I can't even look at you.

0:07:56 > 0:07:57Where'd you go?

0:07:58 > 0:08:01Oh, don't worry about her.

0:08:01 > 0:08:02She's taking it pretty well!

0:08:02 > 0:08:05- Kat...- Anyway, who needs her? I've got you now.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11It's just a bit of website design -

0:08:11 > 0:08:12how can you justify charging that much?

0:08:16 > 0:08:18No, it's fine, forget it - I'll find someone else.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25I'm sorry for earwigging -

0:08:25 > 0:08:29I know quite a lot about web design. I used to do all Sadie's stuff.

0:08:29 > 0:08:32- Maybe I could help?- No, thanks.

0:08:32 > 0:08:36Whatever those big companies are charging, I'd do it for half that.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38Come on, what have you got to lose?

0:08:38 > 0:08:41Besides, I could really do with the money.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43I lost my job yesterday.

0:08:45 > 0:08:47Can I get two teas, please?

0:08:47 > 0:08:48Hello again.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51Look, I don't want any trouble.

0:08:51 > 0:08:55I found out from Billy about Janine dropping the charges.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58So whilst everyone round here thinks you're Little Miss Innocent,

0:08:58 > 0:09:00we both know different, don't we?

0:09:00 > 0:09:02And that's never going to change.

0:09:02 > 0:09:04Roxy?

0:09:09 > 0:09:10- What happened?- Nothing.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12Don't pay any attention to her, all right?

0:09:12 > 0:09:15Her bark is a lot worse than her bite.

0:09:15 > 0:09:16So, you back here for good?

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Well, that's the plan.

0:09:18 > 0:09:20Bad idea, innit?

0:09:20 > 0:09:24No. You've paid your dues, we both know that.

0:09:27 > 0:09:28PHONE RINGS

0:09:36 > 0:09:37Hey.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Who's he?

0:09:41 > 0:09:43I thought it might be easier for you to sort the funeral

0:09:43 > 0:09:45if the vicar came here.

0:09:45 > 0:09:46But I don't know him!

0:09:46 > 0:09:50He ain't my vicar. My vicar is the Mr Reverend Stevens.

0:09:50 > 0:09:53- I'm Tim....- Tim who?

0:09:53 > 0:09:56- Stevens.- Oh. - I'm a reader from a nearby church.

0:09:56 > 0:09:58Mr Stevens sends his apologies

0:09:58 > 0:10:00but he's had to go away for a couple of weeks.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Church business. I'm covering for him.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06I'm also his nephew, so you'll still have the family connection,

0:10:06 > 0:10:08if that helps.

0:10:08 > 0:10:09Oh.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12Well, you'd better go through.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16A meal's fine, but what Tam really needs

0:10:16 > 0:10:18is something to remind him there's more to life

0:10:18 > 0:10:20than the daily drudge of market inspecting.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22Easier said than done.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28I didn't think she'd ever come back.

0:10:28 > 0:10:33That's where her husband died over there, running from the law.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Murdered my uncle.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37I'd have never thought that of Bradley,

0:10:37 > 0:10:39he always seemed like a nice bloke. Quiet.

0:10:39 > 0:10:43Yeah, well, you know what they say - still waters run deep.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Why aren't you on the van with Alfie?

0:10:48 > 0:10:50Cos he's given him the morning off, ain't he?

0:10:50 > 0:10:52He's had to take the van over to Canning Town

0:10:52 > 0:10:54for a whatsit - service.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56Like what he said.

0:10:56 > 0:11:00- Anyway, I've gotta be somewhere, so I'll see you...- Yeah.

0:11:00 > 0:11:01I've got to be somewhere as well.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09All right, Jenny?

0:11:09 > 0:11:11You pushed off a bit lively the other week.

0:11:11 > 0:11:12Something I said?

0:11:21 > 0:11:23You took your time. Teas'll be cold by now.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25Yeah, sorry. I was just catching up with a few people.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27Bet it's like you've never been away.

0:11:27 > 0:11:30Yeah. Do you mind if I go home and check on Lily?

0:11:30 > 0:11:33- Course not. Give Tommy a kiss from me.- All right.

0:11:50 > 0:11:51Stace!

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Stace, can we talk, please?

0:11:54 > 0:11:57Please.

0:11:57 > 0:11:58You can't avoid me for ever, can you?

0:12:00 > 0:12:01I can't hide all day, can I?

0:12:01 > 0:12:04I'm supposed to be meeting some geezer about a van in a bit.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06Yeah, but after what I said, if she sees you she might get suss.

0:12:06 > 0:12:07Too late!

0:12:13 > 0:12:16We've actually seen a big increase in people choosing popular music

0:12:16 > 0:12:19rather than hymns for the end of the service.

0:12:19 > 0:12:20It can add a very personal touch

0:12:20 > 0:12:23when relatives pick a favourite song of the deceased.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25What, Jailhouse Rock?

0:12:25 > 0:12:28I mean, he may just be a name on a list to you, but he was my son

0:12:28 > 0:12:31and I'd like a proper funeral, not a disco.

0:12:31 > 0:12:33I'm sure Mr Stevens didn't mean anything.

0:12:33 > 0:12:34Mrs Branning, I assure you,

0:12:34 > 0:12:38both you and your son are far more than names on a parish register.

0:12:38 > 0:12:41Yes, and I'm sorry if I snapped.

0:12:41 > 0:12:45To be quite honest with you, I ain't seen my Nick for the last few years.

0:12:45 > 0:12:50Not since he brought his daughter Dotty to meet me.

0:12:50 > 0:12:55And I wouldn't have the faintest idea what his favourite song is.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58Maybe you could choose something he liked as a child.

0:12:58 > 0:13:01Something you used to sing to him, perhaps?

0:13:01 > 0:13:04I only used to sing him lullabies.

0:13:04 > 0:13:08Mind you, there was one song that he liked.

0:13:08 > 0:13:09Sleepy Joe.

0:13:09 > 0:13:13He used to make me sing it to him over and over again.

0:13:14 > 0:13:15But I can't remember it now.

0:13:17 > 0:13:21It's funny isn't it, those moments, they're so precious,

0:13:21 > 0:13:24and you don't realise it till they're gone.

0:13:27 > 0:13:30Your uncle, he must be very pleased to have you near.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32Oh, we weren't always that way.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35I went through my rebellious years like anyone else.

0:13:35 > 0:13:39Took a while to find the right path and reconnect.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41I wish that'd been the case with my Nick.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44But it's too late now.

0:13:50 > 0:13:52Lauren's out, we've got the place to ourselves.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58So, why'd you leave the hotel like that?

0:13:58 > 0:14:00You know why.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02Well, no, cos I thought we wanted the same thing.

0:14:02 > 0:14:05No, you thought you'd take advantage when of me when I was at my lowest.

0:14:05 > 0:14:07It weren't like that, I just liked being alone with you.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09I just wanted it to last a bit longer.

0:14:09 > 0:14:10I thought you did as well.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14Stace, it's still there, what we had all those years ago.

0:14:14 > 0:14:17- No, it isn't.- Right, so why did you agree to come back here?

0:14:17 > 0:14:18To tell you to stay away.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20Well, if that's what you want, why are you back in Walford?

0:14:20 > 0:14:23Not everything is about you, Max!

0:14:23 > 0:14:25I've come back for my family.

0:14:25 > 0:14:28And this connection that you think we've got - it's Bradley,

0:14:28 > 0:14:29- nothing else.- No, it ain't.

0:14:31 > 0:14:32It ain't, Stace.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38- For me, eh?- Don't.

0:14:38 > 0:14:41We need to draw a line under me and you, for good.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44- Right, and that's what you really want?- Yeah.

0:14:44 > 0:14:46And it should be what you want, too.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48Look at how much we've lost, Max.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50Stace, all right? We ain't over.

0:14:51 > 0:14:53We ain't ever going to be over.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09Some people get into your head and stay there, right, Dad?

0:15:32 > 0:15:35Then she turned up declaring her undying love for me.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37Well, the girl's only human. The thing is, Kat,

0:15:37 > 0:15:39I played along cos I thought it was

0:15:39 > 0:15:41the easiest thing to do. But I swear, there was no funny business,

0:15:41 > 0:15:44my hands were firmly on my head.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47She didn't like being rejected cos she thought, you know...

0:15:47 > 0:15:49we had something.

0:15:49 > 0:15:53Anyway, to cut a long story short, SHE took the van, OK?

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Stitched me up like a kipper. So I'm the victim here.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00And that's the truth, the whole truth,

0:16:00 > 0:16:04and nothing but the truth, so help me, Kat.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07SHE LAUGHS

0:16:12 > 0:16:14Why are you laughing? I thought you'd be angry.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17What, because some desperate Aussie bird kicked you into touch?

0:16:17 > 0:16:20- Do me a favour!- Excuse me, cos someone fancies me,

0:16:20 > 0:16:22- what, you think they're desperate? - You said it.

0:16:22 > 0:16:25Look, you scammed someone, it came back and bit you on the knackers!

0:16:25 > 0:16:27If that's the worst secret you've kept from me

0:16:27 > 0:16:30since we've been back together, I think I can cope with that.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39- You - you are one in a million. - I know.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Oh, you do, do you?

0:16:42 > 0:16:45Listen, I'm sorry I got angry about the whole Stacey thing,

0:16:45 > 0:16:48it's just, you know, I was worried, about you and our babies.

0:16:48 > 0:16:51I know. But we have to be honest with each other.

0:16:51 > 0:16:54I mean, look what happened to Janine and Michael in the end.

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Do you really want to end up like that?

0:16:56 > 0:16:59OK, here's the deal, all right? Let's call it quits.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02From now on we both stay out of trouble, yeah?

0:17:02 > 0:17:05- Sounds good to me.- OK, good. You want a bacon sarnie?

0:17:05 > 0:17:06- Go on, then.- OK, then.

0:17:06 > 0:17:07I'll leave you to it.

0:17:09 > 0:17:14- He seems nice. - Well, we'll see. He's Nick's son.

0:17:14 > 0:17:18I'm so sorry about what happened, Dot. I had no idea.

0:17:18 > 0:17:23Well, I expected it, you know, the life he led.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28But you don't think they'll go before you, not your children.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32It don't seem real, Stacey.

0:17:32 > 0:17:35Right or wrong, you loved him no matter what he did, didn't you?

0:17:35 > 0:17:37Yeah, course I did.

0:17:37 > 0:17:42I mean, he was me own flesh and blood, you forgive 'em anything.

0:17:42 > 0:17:46But people round here, they're just glad to see the back of him.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49Cos you do something wrong, and that's what they remember.

0:17:51 > 0:17:56- Like with Bradley? - Oh, no, no, no. Not Bradley.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59He hadn't got a nasty bone in his body.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01Now all people talk about is how he killed someone.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03But we know the truth.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08- Yeah, we know. - Well, ain't that enough?

0:18:20 > 0:18:21No more than I deserve, right?

0:18:23 > 0:18:24Don't worry, I feel the same.

0:18:25 > 0:18:29But it's given me new aspirations in life.

0:18:29 > 0:18:32This week - a single bedsit. Next week - who knows?

0:18:32 > 0:18:35Might be able to persuade Aleks to give me a chair for the corner.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37- Or a desk.- Whoa-ho, steady on!

0:18:39 > 0:18:41Right, there you go.

0:18:48 > 0:18:49It's perfect.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51Oi, cheeky, don't sound so surprised!

0:18:52 > 0:18:54I'll spend a few hours finessing it,

0:18:54 > 0:18:57and I can have it finished by tonight.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00- You can pay me then.- OK, great. - Yeah?- Yeah.- Cool.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05Think I can find my own way out.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07Yeah. Yeah, course.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10- Bye.- See you.

0:19:16 > 0:19:17HE WHISTLES

0:19:18 > 0:19:20- I'm impressed. - Strictly business, mate.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Business can become pleasure.

0:19:23 > 0:19:25The last thing I need right now is romance, trust me.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38- Did Kat send you? - No, she don't even know I'm here.

0:19:38 > 0:19:40Please give her another chance.

0:19:40 > 0:19:43- Alice could've gone down for murder! - I know, but she didn't.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46- She'll be OK. - Kat looked me in the eye

0:19:46 > 0:19:48and swore she saw her do it, Stacey.

0:19:50 > 0:19:53I stuck up for her, I defended her to my own mother -

0:19:53 > 0:19:57- she's made me look like a mug! - Janine caused all this, not Kat.

0:19:57 > 0:19:58She was just desperate to help her family.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00Why else would she lie under oath,

0:20:00 > 0:20:03and hurt the people that she cares about?

0:20:03 > 0:20:05I know, in this situation, you would do the same.

0:20:06 > 0:20:08Bianca, you're the closest thing that Kat's got

0:20:08 > 0:20:11to a sister on this square.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13Except you.

0:20:13 > 0:20:18Yeah, but...she needs her best mate too, more than she realises.

0:20:20 > 0:20:21Please just think about it.

0:20:33 > 0:20:35You don't have to go to all this effort.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Anything to put a smile on my little bro's face.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41Tam. Tam, guess what I've got?

0:20:41 > 0:20:43A key, it seems.

0:20:43 > 0:20:46- Four tickets to the West End's best comedy club.- No way!

0:20:46 > 0:20:49Would I joke about something as serious as comedy?

0:20:49 > 0:20:50This is above and beyond, Jane. Thank you!

0:20:50 > 0:20:53Lunch is ready - come and get it, guys.

0:20:53 > 0:20:54Yeah, in a minute. So what's the line-up?

0:20:54 > 0:20:56Oh, I wrote it down.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59It's Conor Locky, Lucy Rake, Tom Merlin and Suki Brown.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03- Suki Brown! She's brilliant. - She is good.

0:21:03 > 0:21:04Ah, just the man I want to see!

0:21:04 > 0:21:07Listen, buddy, can I ask you a favour?

0:21:07 > 0:21:09- Now you want my help? - Listen, I've got a proposition

0:21:09 > 0:21:11for you. Just hear me out, all right?

0:21:11 > 0:21:12- Cheers.- There you go, darling.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18B, if you've come back for another fight, I'm really not up for it.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20Shifted them new leggings yet?

0:21:21 > 0:21:23- No.- Typical.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26Let me show you how it's done.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39- All right? How's Nan with the kids? - Yeah. She's all right.

0:21:40 > 0:21:44Listen, Kat, me being here - it ain't going to work.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46It ain't even been a day, give it a chance!

0:21:47 > 0:21:50Brighton ain't so great, you know. It's windy by the sea.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53And you'll get fat with all them doughnut stalls.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55You don't understand.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57Just meet me in the Vic in ten minutes, yeah?

0:22:08 > 0:22:10Roxy, can I have a word?

0:22:12 > 0:22:15However you feel about me, I...

0:22:16 > 0:22:18I just wanted to say I'm sorry.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21Is that it?

0:22:23 > 0:22:24Yeah.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28I can't forget.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33But I won't say anything, I promised Ronnie.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40Look, my dad lied to me my whole life.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43About what he did to Ronnie, about Danielle...

0:22:45 > 0:22:48I loved him... but I never really knew him, so...

0:22:50 > 0:22:52..what's one more lie?

0:23:00 > 0:23:03Shall I hold the door open this time, Jen?

0:23:04 > 0:23:08Listen, my name's not Jenny, it's Stacey.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11- I was in a bit of trouble...- It's all right, listen, you ain't got

0:23:11 > 0:23:12to explain, it's none of my business.

0:23:12 > 0:23:16- Did you get it sorted, this trouble? - Yeah, in a way.

0:23:16 > 0:23:17Good.

0:23:17 > 0:23:20So, Stacey, would you like a drink on the house

0:23:20 > 0:23:22and we'll start again, shall we?

0:23:22 > 0:23:24Yeah, why not? I'll have a vodka.

0:23:42 > 0:23:44- What are you doing? - We found you something.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47- What?- Herman's Hermits? - Oh, yes, that was it.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50It only took a web search.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52And we can download it for the funeral if you like?

0:23:54 > 0:23:56MUSIC: "Sleepy Joe" by Herman's Hermits

0:23:57 > 0:23:59# Rise and shine, sleepy Joe

0:23:59 > 0:24:01# Now's the time, don't you know? #

0:24:03 > 0:24:07"Rise and shine." I don't think that's very appropriate.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09No, we'll have the traditional hymns.

0:24:11 > 0:24:13Takes me right back, though.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21I want you to arrange to have the coffin brought here.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23Because I want to say a proper goodbye to him.

0:24:25 > 0:24:27It's time he come home.

0:24:43 > 0:24:44Listen, about my dad.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47We both know what he's like when it comes to you,

0:24:47 > 0:24:49and my family's had enough drama as it is...

0:24:49 > 0:24:52It's all right, Lauren. I'm not staying.

0:24:52 > 0:24:53Right.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Oh, Lauren.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Will you keep this safe for me?

0:25:07 > 0:25:09- What is it? - Please, just do it for me.

0:25:20 > 0:25:23- What you doing here with Lily? - Your guess is as good as mine.

0:25:23 > 0:25:26Stacey called and asked me to pack their things

0:25:26 > 0:25:28and meet her in here quick as I could.

0:25:37 > 0:25:41- What? What, you just going to do a runner?- No.

0:25:41 > 0:25:43No, I need you to do me a favour.

0:25:43 > 0:25:47You said it yourself. You said that Mum's doing great with Ollie, and...

0:25:47 > 0:25:50I know that she'll take good care of Lily.

0:25:50 > 0:25:51Why would she have to?

0:25:52 > 0:25:55Kat's going to take you to the seaside.

0:25:56 > 0:25:58She's going to take you to stay with Nanny Jean.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01She's going to look after you until Mummy comes home, OK?

0:26:06 > 0:26:11Mummy loves you. Mummy loves you so much.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26Nan, do me a favour and take her outside.

0:26:27 > 0:26:30We received a call about a crime committed in this pub.

0:26:34 > 0:26:35I'm not Janine.

0:26:35 > 0:26:39I can't just walk off into the sunset and get my happy ending.

0:26:39 > 0:26:41I thought I could live with it, but I can't.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43I need to clear Bradley's name.

0:26:45 > 0:26:48And I don't want my daughter growing up in a lie.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50Don't do this, Stacey, please.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54I'm the one who called you.

0:26:56 > 0:26:57I did it.

0:26:58 > 0:26:59THUNDER RUMBLES

0:27:01 > 0:27:02I killed Archie Mitchell.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23CAR APPROACHES

0:27:29 > 0:27:32- You all right, Linda? - All right.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36What's that doing here? The funeral's not till tomorrow.

0:27:36 > 0:27:39I've not got my days wrong, have I?

0:27:39 > 0:27:42No, no, it is tomorrow.

0:28:04 > 0:28:07Erm... Is that Nick?

0:28:07 > 0:28:11Yeah... Erm, Mrs B's having him lying in state.

0:28:11 > 0:28:14I thought only Catholics did that.

0:28:14 > 0:28:16It's what she wants.

0:28:16 > 0:28:19Ronnie, hold on. She's the one who called the police...

0:28:19 > 0:28:21It doesn't make any difference.

0:28:21 > 0:28:22- Don't go and see her... - I have to...

0:28:22 > 0:28:26- Look, she's the one...- I'm not going to leave Stacey to rot!

0:28:35 > 0:28:37You can change your mind.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43Mrs Branning.

0:29:00 > 0:29:07Everything's as you requested. A solid Italian cherry coffin...

0:29:07 > 0:29:09beautiful craftsmanship, I hope you agree.

0:29:11 > 0:29:13Oh, and as instructed, the name plate.

0:29:13 > 0:29:21Plain and simple - "Nicholas Cotton, 1959-2014."

0:29:21 > 0:29:26He's here. He's come home.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29Why don't you sit down?

0:29:29 > 0:29:31Why is the lid still on?

0:29:31 > 0:29:34Erm, we agreed a closed casket.

0:29:34 > 0:29:37But I want to say goodbye to him.

0:29:37 > 0:29:39Well, you can still say goodbye.

0:29:39 > 0:29:41I want to see him.

0:29:41 > 0:29:44I want to see his face. Unscrew it.

0:29:44 > 0:29:45It's not a good idea, really...

0:29:45 > 0:29:47he wasn't in a good way at the end.

0:29:47 > 0:29:49Remember him how he was.

0:29:49 > 0:29:53Mr Coker, I'd be very much obliged if you'd do as I wish.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57I'll get some tools.

0:30:04 > 0:30:06(You said this wouldn't happen!)

0:30:06 > 0:30:09(I know, I'm trying to think!)

0:30:24 > 0:30:27Mrs B's doing fine. It's me that's got the heebie-jeebies.

0:30:27 > 0:30:30I'm going to be locking my door, sleeping with a crucifix,

0:30:30 > 0:30:32garlic and a wooden stake. I ain't even joking.

0:30:32 > 0:30:34A coffin in the house?

0:30:34 > 0:30:37- Give Dot my love, will you? - I will do, sweetheart.

0:30:37 > 0:30:40Oh! Since when have you drunk fat free?

0:30:40 > 0:30:43It's for Jane. She thinks she needs it. But she doesn't.

0:30:43 > 0:30:46Oh, right? That's cos she's got the perfect figure?

0:30:46 > 0:30:49Hmm! Yeah, she has, actually.

0:30:50 > 0:30:52It's not like that.

0:30:52 > 0:30:56No? But you want it to be, don't you?

0:30:56 > 0:30:58- She's not interested. - You sure?

0:30:58 > 0:31:02Whose door was it she was knocking on for somewhere to live now? Eh?

0:31:02 > 0:31:05- Hmm.- Hmm.

0:31:09 > 0:31:12I've done what she's asked. I've unscrewed the lid.

0:31:12 > 0:31:15It's up to you now.

0:31:23 > 0:31:27Oh, planning on cooking something nice tonight?

0:31:28 > 0:31:32I don't think so. I'm just looking for some ideas for Ian.

0:31:32 > 0:31:34He wants to reinvent the burger.

0:31:34 > 0:31:36Bunless for the carb watchers with sweet potato fries.

0:31:36 > 0:31:39You don't sound so sure.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41Well, if you want a burger and chips, don't you just want

0:31:41 > 0:31:43a burger and chips?

0:31:43 > 0:31:45Any luck with the flat hunt, Jane?

0:31:45 > 0:31:48Oh...no, not yet.

0:31:48 > 0:31:53Well, there's no rush. You can stay as long as you like.

0:31:57 > 0:32:00Mr Coker, he's usually very professional.

0:32:00 > 0:32:03His wife's a bit of a gossip,

0:32:03 > 0:32:06but then you can't hold that against him.

0:32:06 > 0:32:09I want you to promise me that if you want to lift the lid

0:32:09 > 0:32:12and see him you'll only do it with me there.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15It's very upsetting and I'm not going to let you do it on your own.

0:32:16 > 0:32:18Please...promise.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22You're a good boy.

0:32:22 > 0:32:26I am very grateful to you, you know, for arranging the funeral,

0:32:26 > 0:32:30the coffin...

0:32:32 > 0:32:37Watch what you're doing, that's my best china. You're like your father.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39You're heavy-handed.

0:32:39 > 0:32:42Am I like him in other ways?

0:32:42 > 0:32:44Well, I don't really know you, do I?

0:32:47 > 0:32:51You look more like your grandfather. My Charlie.

0:32:53 > 0:32:59It's strange having you here. You, me...and your father.

0:33:03 > 0:33:06But it's not the way I would've wanted.

0:33:08 > 0:33:12I think I'd like some time alone with him.

0:33:12 > 0:33:15KNOCK AT DOOR

0:33:15 > 0:33:20I'll get that. Just... remember your promise, OK?

0:33:24 > 0:33:26Thank you.

0:33:33 > 0:33:35Oh...is Dot around?

0:33:35 > 0:33:36- She's busy. - Sorry, who are you?

0:33:36 > 0:33:39- Her grandson. - Grandson?

0:33:39 > 0:33:42Well, I've known Dot all my life, she's never mentioned a grandson.

0:33:42 > 0:33:43Charlie Cotton.

0:33:43 > 0:33:46I'm afraid Dot didn't know I existed until a couple of weeks ago.

0:33:46 > 0:33:48Give me the flowers, I'll tell her you called.

0:33:48 > 0:33:51I'd really like to see her, let her know people care, you know.

0:33:51 > 0:33:53She's in with my dad, she's saying her goodbyes.

0:33:53 > 0:33:57Right. Well, tell her Sharon called and I'll call back later.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59Sharon. Right, thank you.

0:34:36 > 0:34:38I have missed you, Nick.

0:34:50 > 0:34:53I left her some flowers, didn't know what else to do.

0:34:53 > 0:34:55Why does she want the body in the house?

0:34:55 > 0:34:58Well, maybe she wants people to pay their respects.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00What, to Nick? Could be a long wait.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02Come on, Ian, she's mourning.

0:35:02 > 0:35:05Anyway, Charlie said she was in with the coffin

0:35:05 > 0:35:07- so I just left the flowers with him. - Charlie?

0:35:07 > 0:35:09Yeah. Her grandson...

0:35:09 > 0:35:13Well, apparently Dot didn't know he existed until a couple of weeks ago.

0:35:13 > 0:35:17Still, it's a blessing she's got him, I suppose, isn't it?

0:35:17 > 0:35:19And he's just appeared out of nowhere?

0:35:19 > 0:35:21Well, yeah. Nick's son.

0:35:21 > 0:35:24Right. So you've left Dot in her house on her own with a dead body

0:35:24 > 0:35:27- and someone claiming to be her grandson?- No, he wasn't claiming...

0:35:27 > 0:35:29Sharon, this is Nick Cotton we're talking about,

0:35:29 > 0:35:31that bloke could be anyone.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36I've been thinking.

0:35:38 > 0:35:42Do you remember that children's service at the church?

0:35:42 > 0:35:48I made your costume for you. It was Harvest Festival.

0:35:48 > 0:35:49And you went as a carrot.

0:35:49 > 0:35:56And Ethel, she came with us, and she smuggled Willy in in her

0:35:56 > 0:36:00shopping bag and he kept growling at that bird on that woman's hat.

0:36:00 > 0:36:05and I was cross with you cos you was giggling, and I told you off.

0:36:08 > 0:36:13I wish I'd laughed. I mean, you can laugh in church.

0:36:15 > 0:36:19You never went to Sunday School again.

0:36:19 > 0:36:22I should have done more.

0:36:24 > 0:36:26DOORBELL RINGS

0:36:28 > 0:36:33I'm not looking at no-one in no open coffin. Never have done.

0:36:33 > 0:36:37It makes my skin crawl just thinking about it.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39Yeah, well, you don't want to tell her that.

0:36:40 > 0:36:42I'm not stupid.

0:36:42 > 0:36:47I'm here as a mark of respect to a very dear friend in

0:36:47 > 0:36:50her hour of need.

0:36:51 > 0:36:55Ah, you must be Charlie. Arthur told me all about you.

0:36:55 > 0:36:59I'm Patrick, this is Cora. We're friends of Dorothy's.

0:36:59 > 0:37:02Nice to meet you. I'm afraid she's a bit busy, she's in with...

0:37:02 > 0:37:05Patrick, is that you? Come on in.

0:37:14 > 0:37:18How are you doing, my dear?

0:37:18 > 0:37:21Fine. I'm just in with my Nick.

0:37:21 > 0:37:24Charlie, would you put the kettle on?

0:37:24 > 0:37:27Course. is everything all right in there?

0:37:27 > 0:37:28Yes.

0:37:30 > 0:37:32This way.

0:37:37 > 0:37:41There's people come to pay their respects

0:37:41 > 0:37:44so I can't be too long.

0:37:54 > 0:37:58I saw the hearse, man, it was a bit of a surprise.

0:37:58 > 0:38:02Yeah. It's not normal nowadays, is it?

0:38:02 > 0:38:05- Having the coffin in the house. - It's what Dot wanted.

0:38:05 > 0:38:06Do you live round here?

0:38:06 > 0:38:08Yeah. Not far.

0:38:08 > 0:38:11You don't sound like a Londoner.

0:38:11 > 0:38:14I'm originally from Coventry but been here for the past ten years.

0:38:14 > 0:38:17How comes she never knew you existed?

0:38:17 > 0:38:19Just one of them family things.

0:38:19 > 0:38:22Patrick tells me you're a cop.

0:38:22 > 0:38:24Detective Constable.

0:38:24 > 0:38:26KNOCK AT DOOR Excuse me.

0:38:33 > 0:38:36Bit of a coincidence, ain't it?

0:38:36 > 0:38:39Him rocking up just as Nick kicks the bucket.

0:38:39 > 0:38:42What the devil are you talking about?

0:38:42 > 0:38:46Has she got proof he is who he says he is?

0:38:46 > 0:38:50You honestly think that somebody's going to pretend to be Nick's son?

0:38:50 > 0:38:53You don't really know anyone.

0:38:53 > 0:38:58What about Stacey? Look what she did.

0:38:58 > 0:39:01There could be insurance involved in this.

0:39:01 > 0:39:07The man was a junkie! And junkies don't insure their lives.

0:39:11 > 0:39:16You can't let this happen to you. You've gotta fight it.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18For Lily's sake. You don't deserve to be in here.

0:39:18 > 0:39:19I killed him.

0:39:19 > 0:39:21He raped you.

0:39:21 > 0:39:24And he paid for it and now it's my turn to pay.

0:39:24 > 0:39:27You can't think like that. You were the victim!

0:39:27 > 0:39:29Why do you care so much?

0:39:29 > 0:39:31I know what my dad was like...

0:39:31 > 0:39:33I know the kind of monster that he was

0:39:33 > 0:39:35and I know the kind of person you are.

0:39:35 > 0:39:37I'm not Danielle.

0:39:37 > 0:39:41I let her down. I'm not going to let you down.

0:39:47 > 0:39:50He seems all right and he obviously cares about Dot.

0:39:50 > 0:39:53He's still Nick Cotton's spawn.

0:39:53 > 0:39:54If he is who he says he is.

0:39:54 > 0:39:56Drop it now, man.

0:39:56 > 0:40:00Have you, um, have you been in...?

0:40:00 > 0:40:02No, not yet.

0:40:02 > 0:40:04I'm not going in.

0:40:04 > 0:40:09I've been thinking. Nick tried killing Dot in this house.

0:40:09 > 0:40:11Oh, don't, Ian, it gives me the creeps.

0:40:11 > 0:40:14I know it's not a nice thing to say, but thank God he's dead.

0:40:14 > 0:40:16Hear, hear.

0:40:16 > 0:40:19Wonder what kind of coffin she's got him? They're not cheap.

0:40:19 > 0:40:21I hope it weren't an expensive one, or he'll rise from the dead

0:40:21 > 0:40:23and try to sell it.

0:40:23 > 0:40:25That's all he was interested in doing - nick stuff

0:40:25 > 0:40:27and flog it to fund his habit.

0:40:27 > 0:40:31Dot's asked if you'd all come through to the sitting room.

0:40:31 > 0:40:34- I'll stay here and make the tea. - It's what Dot wants.

0:40:44 > 0:40:45Dot all right, is she?

0:40:45 > 0:40:47As well as can be expected.

0:40:47 > 0:40:50At least she's got her friends around her, eh?

0:40:55 > 0:40:58You always was a lovely girl.

0:40:58 > 0:41:01You were there for me when I lost my mum.

0:41:04 > 0:41:07- Patrick.- I'm so sorry.

0:41:07 > 0:41:13It's a terrible thing, a parent burying a child. I know.

0:41:13 > 0:41:15Yes, of course you do.

0:41:20 > 0:41:23- Cora... - Deepest condolences, Dot.

0:41:23 > 0:41:24Thank you.

0:41:30 > 0:41:35Come here. Denise and the kids send their love.

0:41:37 > 0:41:39I'm sorry about the other day, I was just stressed about everything

0:41:39 > 0:41:44but it's all going to be perfect tomorrow, OK?

0:41:44 > 0:41:46You OK?

0:41:46 > 0:41:49Well, I'm better now he's home.

0:41:49 > 0:41:54Cos I've spent so many years not knowing where he was.

0:41:54 > 0:41:58At least now you can stop worrying about that.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03Rest in peace, Nick.

0:42:03 > 0:42:07Oh, Ian, I'd almost forgotten...

0:42:07 > 0:42:11I'd like you to speak at the funeral.

0:42:11 > 0:42:13What, like a reading?

0:42:13 > 0:42:16No, a eulogy. You know, to say a few words about Nick.

0:42:16 > 0:42:19Wouldn't you rather do that yourself?

0:42:19 > 0:42:21Well, it would mean an awful lot if you did it.

0:42:21 > 0:42:25Cos I remember how nicely you spoke after

0:42:25 > 0:42:28the burial of your Auntie Pauline.

0:42:28 > 0:42:30Yeah...I suppose so.

0:42:30 > 0:42:32Were you one of my dad's mates?

0:42:33 > 0:42:35Well, we kind of grew up together.

0:42:35 > 0:42:39I mean, your dad was a bit older than us but...

0:42:39 > 0:42:46Yes, well, your father, he didn't have many friends. Not close ones.

0:42:46 > 0:42:51When he was a little boy he used to say that I was his best friend

0:42:51 > 0:42:53and I used to say that he was mine.

0:42:56 > 0:43:00I've got something that might help you, you know.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02Could you come with me, Charlie?

0:43:02 > 0:43:03Of course.

0:43:13 > 0:43:17I have nightmares every night of Bradley falling...

0:43:17 > 0:43:20I've got his blood on my hands.

0:43:20 > 0:43:22That's never going to wash off.

0:43:22 > 0:43:24He wouldn't want you in here.

0:43:24 > 0:43:28Ronnie, I'm not Danielle. You don't owe me anything.

0:43:28 > 0:43:29Just let me help you.

0:43:29 > 0:43:32I don't want to be helped, OK?

0:43:32 > 0:43:35Just get on with your life and forget about me.

0:43:48 > 0:43:50At least the lid is closed.

0:43:50 > 0:43:52Doesn't stop you thinking he's going to jump out at you.

0:43:52 > 0:43:55Like father, like son.

0:43:55 > 0:43:57How do you mean?

0:43:57 > 0:44:00From what I can understand, Nick was evil.

0:44:00 > 0:44:06Wouldn't surprise me if Charlie's not a chip off the old block.

0:44:06 > 0:44:09It is weird how he's appeared out of nowhere.

0:44:11 > 0:44:13Don't stop on my account.

0:44:15 > 0:44:18Sorry. We're just looking out for Dot.

0:44:18 > 0:44:20Nick didn't always treat her that well.

0:44:20 > 0:44:21She'll be down in a minute.

0:44:21 > 0:44:25Look... I hardly know anything about my dad, OK?

0:44:25 > 0:44:28I only met him when I was a kid. I'm here to look after Dot.

0:44:28 > 0:44:30- Like Nick did?! - You clearly didn't like him.

0:44:30 > 0:44:33I get it. But, for Dot's sake, I think the least you can do is...

0:44:33 > 0:44:36Don't tell me what I should do for Dot's sake.

0:44:36 > 0:44:39That woman has been part of my life since I was born.

0:44:39 > 0:44:40Who are you? Some stranger she's just met?

0:44:40 > 0:44:42All right, calm down...

0:44:42 > 0:44:45You want to know who your dad was? I'll tell you. OK? He was scum.

0:44:45 > 0:44:49He was a murdering, thieving... No, leave it, Patrick.

0:44:49 > 0:44:52..lying con man who was only interested in number one.

0:44:52 > 0:44:55Everybody else turned their back on him apart from Dot.

0:44:55 > 0:44:57And do you know how he repaid her?

0:44:57 > 0:44:59He tried to murder her. Yeah, that's right.

0:44:59 > 0:45:01He tried to poison his own mother for her money.

0:45:01 > 0:45:04People do desperate things when they're on drugs.

0:45:04 > 0:45:07Yeah, he was filth. In fact, he wasn't interested in Dot.

0:45:07 > 0:45:09He didn't care about Dot.

0:45:09 > 0:45:12All he was interested in is was what she was worth to him dead.

0:45:12 > 0:45:16So him being in that coffin is the best news I've had all year.

0:45:16 > 0:45:17Have you finished?

0:45:17 > 0:45:19- I think you should go. - I'm sorry.

0:45:19 > 0:45:21I think you should take your opinions and get out.

0:45:21 > 0:45:24- Come on, Ian, let's go. We really are sorry for your loss. - All of you. Just go.

0:45:24 > 0:45:27- I'm just saying what you're all thinking, all right?- Ian...

0:45:27 > 0:45:30THEY GASP AND SCREAM

0:45:32 > 0:45:35- I-It wasn't my fault. - What's all that noise?

0:45:35 > 0:45:38- Nick! - Oh, Dot, don't...don't look!

0:45:38 > 0:45:40Everybody out!

0:45:40 > 0:45:42THEY ALL SHOUT AT ONCE

0:45:42 > 0:45:44There's no harm done, it's just an accident.

0:45:44 > 0:45:47Everything's all right, everything's all right. It'll be OK.

0:45:49 > 0:45:50This one dead?

0:45:50 > 0:45:52Yeah.

0:45:55 > 0:45:58- Well? Did you get to see her, then? - Yeah.

0:45:58 > 0:46:01I don't know why you bothered going. It's done with.

0:46:01 > 0:46:04She's locked up so I should just forget about her?

0:46:04 > 0:46:06- Like you've done with Ben? - She killed your dad.

0:46:06 > 0:46:10I mean, I weren't a fan of the geezer but he was still your dad.

0:46:10 > 0:46:13- She's suffered enough. - This isn't about Stacey.

0:46:13 > 0:46:15This is about you,

0:46:15 > 0:46:17because you've got some sick obsession with Dad

0:46:17 > 0:46:20- and it's going to eat you up. - Is that right?- That's right.

0:46:20 > 0:46:24Ronnie, drop it...for me, please.

0:46:29 > 0:46:31SHE SIGHS

0:46:39 > 0:46:41- Hi. Are you off out?- Yeah.

0:46:41 > 0:46:44That's a really pretty scarf.

0:46:44 > 0:46:46It's part of my faith.

0:46:46 > 0:46:48Yeah, course.

0:46:48 > 0:46:51I think it's great that you've got such a strong faith, Shabnam.

0:46:51 > 0:46:53It's not just about my faith.

0:46:53 > 0:46:57I don't have to wear it in front of Tam or my dad or you because...

0:46:57 > 0:47:00You just have to wear it in front of other men to preserve your modesty.

0:47:00 > 0:47:02- Yes.- Yeah, I know.

0:47:05 > 0:47:09You know, it's a shame modesty is something most women

0:47:09 > 0:47:10don't seem to consider any more.

0:47:14 > 0:47:17I've been thinking about Dad, and you being here.

0:47:17 > 0:47:21He's very lonely. I don't think you being here is helping.

0:47:21 > 0:47:26- Really?- Hmm.- Having a good friend around the house is...?

0:47:28 > 0:47:31Shabnam, your dad is one of the kindest people I know.

0:47:31 > 0:47:34- He's always there, he's always reliable.- Yeah.

0:47:34 > 0:47:37Easy for people to take advantage.

0:47:37 > 0:47:39I hope you're not talking about me.

0:47:40 > 0:47:42He's vulnerable, Jane.

0:47:44 > 0:47:46I know he pretends to be all right

0:47:46 > 0:47:49but my mum leaving him really knocked him.

0:47:49 > 0:47:51He's not over her,

0:47:51 > 0:47:53and on top of that, what Carol did to him...

0:47:53 > 0:47:56They were together. We are just friends.

0:47:56 > 0:47:58SHE SCOFFS

0:47:58 > 0:48:00Is that what you tell yourself?

0:48:06 > 0:48:08DOOR CLOSES

0:48:09 > 0:48:12I don't care, I need you here now!

0:48:13 > 0:48:15DOOR BELL RINGS

0:48:20 > 0:48:24Look, before you say anything, I've just come to apologise, OK?

0:48:24 > 0:48:27I shouldn't have said what I said.

0:48:27 > 0:48:30He was your dad and it wasn't right.

0:48:30 > 0:48:34You obviously think a lot of Dot and I'm sorry I doubted you.

0:48:34 > 0:48:40I'll, um... I'll try and do your dad proud tomorrow.

0:48:40 > 0:48:42I'm glad Dot's got you.

0:49:18 > 0:49:21Does it help, reading the Bible?

0:49:21 > 0:49:24It's always helped me,

0:49:24 > 0:49:26but your father,

0:49:26 > 0:49:29he weren't a believer.

0:49:30 > 0:49:34And Sharon, she said to me that I could stop worrying about him,

0:49:34 > 0:49:36on account of knowing where he is at last...

0:49:38 > 0:49:40But I don't, do I?

0:49:40 > 0:49:42He's here, Dot.

0:49:42 > 0:49:44No, that's just his body.

0:49:44 > 0:49:48"And fear not them which can kill the body,

0:49:48 > 0:49:51"but are not able to kill the soul

0:49:51 > 0:49:56"but rather fear him which can destroy both soul and body in hell."

0:49:56 > 0:50:00That's Matthew 10, verse 28.

0:50:03 > 0:50:06You see, hell isn't fire and brimstone.

0:50:06 > 0:50:08It's being apart from God.

0:50:08 > 0:50:11And if I am saved and he ain't...

0:50:11 > 0:50:14then I shall be apart from him...

0:50:15 > 0:50:20..unless he came to Jesus in the end and confessed his sins.

0:50:20 > 0:50:22Maybe he did.

0:50:24 > 0:50:26I should've saved him.

0:50:26 > 0:50:31The one son that God blessed me with

0:50:31 > 0:50:35and I let him die without Jesus in his heart.

0:50:36 > 0:50:40What sort of mother does that make me?

0:50:40 > 0:50:44- No-one thinks you could have done any better, Dot.- Don't they?

0:50:44 > 0:50:46Jesus knows.

0:50:46 > 0:50:51You see, I thought there'd be time for him to change his ways,

0:50:51 > 0:50:56and then with the coffin falling and his hand coming out...

0:50:56 > 0:50:58I mean, what does that all mean?

0:51:02 > 0:51:05I've been thinking.

0:51:05 > 0:51:09Would you, um... Would you mind if I called you Grandma?

0:51:09 > 0:51:14- Well, you're just saying that. - No, no, no. I'd really like to.

0:51:14 > 0:51:18You're a good boy, you've been very good to me.

0:51:18 > 0:51:20Your father should've been proud of you.

0:51:20 > 0:51:23Don't worry about him now. He's at peace.

0:51:23 > 0:51:24Well, how do we know that?

0:51:24 > 0:51:29The one time he needed me, I had cut him out of my life...

0:51:31 > 0:51:33..and now it's too late.

0:51:34 > 0:51:36I failed him.

0:51:38 > 0:51:40I failed him.

0:51:42 > 0:51:44SHE SOBS

0:51:47 > 0:51:49DOOR CLOSES

0:51:49 > 0:51:51And is that inclusive of bills?

0:51:51 > 0:51:54Oh. And what band council tax is it, please?

0:51:57 > 0:51:59Right. I'll call you back. Thank you.

0:51:59 > 0:52:01Hi.

0:52:02 > 0:52:06Has, um... Has Shabnam said something?

0:52:06 > 0:52:09I need a place of my own.

0:52:10 > 0:52:15You can't. I like having you here, I thought you liked being here.

0:52:15 > 0:52:17I don't want to outstay my welcome.

0:52:17 > 0:52:20You couldn't! I mean, there's plenty of room here,

0:52:20 > 0:52:23and you wouldn't find anywhere near Bobby.

0:52:24 > 0:52:27Look, Mas, you know I think so much of you.

0:52:27 > 0:52:30You are a dear, dear friend.

0:52:30 > 0:52:31I could be more.

0:52:32 > 0:52:34I want to be more.

0:52:34 > 0:52:35Mas...

0:52:38 > 0:52:40No... I don't want that!

0:52:48 > 0:52:50Um...

0:52:51 > 0:52:54- I'm sorry. - No, I'm sorry. I, um...

0:52:54 > 0:52:57We're just friends, Mas. That's all we are.

0:53:05 > 0:53:09Jesus, you know how I'm feeling,

0:53:09 > 0:53:12how tormented I am about my Nick,

0:53:12 > 0:53:16that he died without his sins being forgiven.

0:53:18 > 0:53:21I mean, I brought him up to believe in you, to love you,

0:53:21 > 0:53:27but he changed when he was led astray by those wicked drugs.

0:53:27 > 0:53:29He laughed in my face.

0:53:29 > 0:53:31He jeered at my faith.

0:53:31 > 0:53:35I mean, I know that you hung upon the Cross

0:53:35 > 0:53:38to take our sins upon yourself,

0:53:38 > 0:53:44but was it for everybody, or was it just for them what believed?

0:53:44 > 0:53:47I don't know

0:53:47 > 0:53:49and I've got no-one to talk to.

0:53:49 > 0:53:53I mean, even the Rev Mr Stevens is away.

0:53:54 > 0:53:57And I know I ain't praying in the right way.

0:53:57 > 0:54:00I know I should be trusting you -

0:54:00 > 0:54:03ask and ye shall receive -

0:54:03 > 0:54:06but I can't.

0:54:08 > 0:54:12I keep worrying that it's too late.

0:54:15 > 0:54:18I'm putting my reputation on the line here.

0:54:18 > 0:54:2299 years my family have been in business.

0:54:22 > 0:54:26Word gets out about this, I'm ruined.

0:54:26 > 0:54:28Well, screw it down tight.

0:54:28 > 0:54:31I can't afford the risk of anyone looking inside.

0:55:20 > 0:55:24You've been at that for hours. Here, let me have a look.

0:55:24 > 0:55:26No!

0:55:26 > 0:55:27Oh, Ian?!

0:55:30 > 0:55:32It's going to be a disaster, ain't it?

0:55:32 > 0:55:35I just need to get on with it, get it out the way.

0:55:35 > 0:55:37YOU'VE got my laptop! I've been looking for it everywhere.

0:55:37 > 0:55:39Whoa, what you doing?!

0:55:39 > 0:55:42I just got sent a copy of my website page. Wait till you see it.

0:55:42 > 0:55:44Lucy, I've got a speech to write, all right? It can wait till later.

0:55:45 > 0:55:48What, you can't spare a minute?

0:55:48 > 0:55:50Your dad's in a bit of a state at the minute.

0:55:55 > 0:55:56- What have you done?! - See you later, Dad.

0:55:56 > 0:55:59Luce! All right, love, I'll...

0:55:59 > 0:56:01DOOR SLAMS ..I'll look at your website.

0:56:01 > 0:56:03HEAVY RAIN ON WINDOW

0:56:03 > 0:56:05Sandy and Dotty sent a card.

0:56:05 > 0:56:08That's my granddaughter.

0:56:08 > 0:56:10She can't come. She's got a cold.

0:56:10 > 0:56:14Tell me you haven't been in here all night.

0:56:14 > 0:56:16I wanted to keep him company, you know.

0:56:16 > 0:56:19- Didn't want him to be on his own. - We've got a bit of time -

0:56:19 > 0:56:21why don't you have a lie down, and I'll sit with him?

0:56:21 > 0:56:24No time for that. I've got to ring Mr Papadopoulos,

0:56:24 > 0:56:27- tell him I can't come in. - You've already done it.

0:56:27 > 0:56:28Have I?

0:56:30 > 0:56:31I've forgotten.

0:56:34 > 0:56:35I will see him again, won't I?

0:56:37 > 0:56:39You know, when I pass on...

0:56:41 > 0:56:43..my Nick will be there, won't he?

0:56:45 > 0:56:48My mum used to say that God loves everyone.

0:56:48 > 0:56:55Yes. He sendeth the rain on the just, and on the unjust.

0:56:58 > 0:57:02Oh, look. It's stopped raining.

0:57:03 > 0:57:04It's going to be a sunny day.

0:57:06 > 0:57:08Why does it looks so big in here?

0:57:08 > 0:57:12I'm not just a pretty face, you know! It's all about clever design.

0:57:12 > 0:57:15Now, there's a staircase out the back to create more space.

0:57:15 > 0:57:19And there's one outside that goes straight to the balcony.

0:57:19 > 0:57:22I thought you'd have noticed it, with the hoardings down.

0:57:22 > 0:57:25- Thought that was a fire escape. - You are so designer-unfriendly!

0:57:28 > 0:57:30Anyway, how comes this delivery's come so early?

0:57:30 > 0:57:33- Well, we won't be here to sign for them, will we?- Why?

0:57:33 > 0:57:35You haven't forgotten what's happening

0:57:35 > 0:57:37around 12 o'clock today, have you?

0:57:38 > 0:57:40A certain someone's getting buried.

0:57:40 > 0:57:41And I won't be going.

0:57:41 > 0:57:43Oh, yes, you will.

0:57:43 > 0:57:45The geezer was a weasel, I hated him.

0:57:45 > 0:57:47Yeah, and today you're going to love him.

0:57:47 > 0:57:50You're going to turn up, looking suitably sombre,

0:57:50 > 0:57:51and Dot will be so touched.

0:57:51 > 0:57:54- This ain't Denny you're talking to, you know.- Come on, Phil,

0:57:54 > 0:57:56please, do it for me.

0:57:56 > 0:58:00You know there's going to be hardly anybody there, so I'd love it

0:58:00 > 0:58:01if Dot thought people cared.

0:58:01 > 0:58:04That's not TOO much to ask, is it?

0:58:04 > 0:58:06In Nick Cotton's case, yeah, it is.

0:58:08 > 0:58:09Well, I'll be wearing black today.

0:58:09 > 0:58:12Hmm? Black dress,

0:58:12 > 0:58:14black stockings...

0:58:14 > 0:58:17Do you want me to go on?

0:58:17 > 0:58:20Now, bring the rest in - I've got a million things to do.

0:58:20 > 0:58:22OK.

0:58:33 > 0:58:34Snap!

0:58:35 > 0:58:39Only, mine's bigger than yours. Listen, how was your little day trip?

0:58:40 > 0:58:42I know that you went to see Stacey.

0:58:42 > 0:58:44I don't really think now is the time or place, do you?

0:58:44 > 0:58:46We'll go over the caff if you want?

0:58:46 > 0:58:48I'm only making conversation.

0:58:48 > 0:58:51Look, I'll make it easy for you, shall I?

0:58:51 > 0:58:53She didn't mention you. Not once.

0:59:00 > 0:59:02- All right?- Sorry, Mas, running late.

0:59:02 > 0:59:04I didn't see you at breakfast.

0:59:05 > 0:59:08- Wasn't hungry. - Or you're avoiding me already.

0:59:08 > 0:59:10Don't say that. Course not.

0:59:10 > 0:59:13There's really no need to. I understand, I do.

0:59:14 > 0:59:16Being friends is enough for me.

0:59:18 > 0:59:20We're not teenagers, I can cope.

0:59:20 > 0:59:22Sorry.

0:59:22 > 0:59:24And, look, if you want to move out, that's cool,

0:59:24 > 0:59:27but really, there's no need to.

0:59:27 > 0:59:30- We can all get along, can't we? - Thank you.

0:59:30 > 0:59:31See? It's working already.

0:59:39 > 0:59:42I wondered if Dot needed anything.

0:59:42 > 0:59:45Er, no, she's just sort of sitting in there at the moment.

0:59:45 > 0:59:47Right, I'll pop my head in.

0:59:47 > 0:59:50Yeah. She's doing OK - you know, considering...

0:59:50 > 0:59:52but she's doing it her way.

0:59:52 > 0:59:55Oh, of course.

0:59:55 > 0:59:59I mean, I haven't even told her that Rose and Andrew ain't coming yet.

0:59:59 > 1:00:00Did she mention them?

1:00:00 > 1:00:03Right. Well, let's worry about the people who WILL be there.

1:00:03 > 1:00:06We're the ones who need to make today special.

1:00:10 > 1:00:13- So that's him, then, is it?- Was.

1:00:13 > 1:00:14That's a lovely touch, that is.

1:00:14 > 1:00:16There's more of this to come, but I really appreciate

1:00:16 > 1:00:19you letting us have it here, seeing as the restaurant's out of action.

1:00:19 > 1:00:22And the chippy just seemed wrong.

1:00:22 > 1:00:24Shouldn't you be on the stall?

1:00:24 > 1:00:25That is the last time I help you.

1:00:25 > 1:00:27Pete, come on, I was joking!

1:00:27 > 1:00:31Funny, ain't it? You put everything into your kids,

1:00:31 > 1:00:35send them on their way, and they get sent back, and it's...

1:00:35 > 1:00:36Don't you worry, Ian,

1:00:36 > 1:00:39we'll do everything to make it as special as we can.

1:00:39 > 1:00:41Yeah, you can rely on the Carters, my old son.

1:00:41 > 1:00:44I'll get the rest of the food sorted, then get started on my speech.

1:00:44 > 1:00:46You're doing a speech? You?

1:00:46 > 1:00:47Yeah. Dot asked me.

1:00:47 > 1:00:49Well, you done it yet?

1:00:49 > 1:00:50Er, I'm nearly there.

1:00:50 > 1:00:53Give him a squeeze, he's been sorting all this out, ain't he?

1:00:53 > 1:00:55Yeah, well, sorting out a few sausage rolls is one thing,

1:00:55 > 1:00:57writing a speech for Dot's dead son...

1:00:57 > 1:00:59I know where MY priorities would be.

1:01:01 > 1:01:03Was thinking, we might do a family meal later.

1:01:03 > 1:01:06- You up for that?- Yeah, great. Nice one. That sounds good.

1:01:06 > 1:01:08You ain't thinking of cooking, are you?

1:01:08 > 1:01:10Don't you think one wake's enough for today?

1:01:15 > 1:01:18There you go, Patrick - strong cuppa.

1:01:18 > 1:01:22Thanks. And I need to make it even stronger.

1:01:23 > 1:01:27I tell you, I drank a gallon of this when my son Paul died, you know?

1:01:30 > 1:01:32What do you think? It's my new web page.

1:01:32 > 1:01:35I know it's not perfect, but... what do you think?

1:01:35 > 1:01:37You're starting a business?

1:01:37 > 1:01:40Do you know how many jobs I've gone for and not got?

1:01:40 > 1:01:43If they don't want me, then I'll do it on my own.

1:01:43 > 1:01:44Yeah, I like it! Nice one.

1:01:44 > 1:01:48LB Lettings. I'm surprised your dad's name's not all over it.

1:01:48 > 1:01:51My dad? No, he's not involved. This is just me.

1:01:52 > 1:01:55You done that all by yourself?

1:01:55 > 1:01:56Do you mind?

1:01:56 > 1:01:58No, no, I like it. It's good.

1:01:58 > 1:02:02- I like it a lot.- Thanks.

1:02:02 > 1:02:04I'D click on it.

1:02:04 > 1:02:06I would.

1:02:08 > 1:02:10So, what, do you reckon me and Paul would've got on?

1:02:10 > 1:02:14That boy was a liar, a thief and the bane of my life.

1:02:14 > 1:02:17So you didn't like him that much, then?

1:02:17 > 1:02:19Son, I loved him with all my heart.

1:02:22 > 1:02:26Oh, I think, um, it's time I go and call on Dot now.

1:02:26 > 1:02:28I thought I might tag along.

1:02:28 > 1:02:31Look, I don't think that's a good idea.

1:02:31 > 1:02:34- I care an' all, Patrick.- But I'm just going to drop these outside.

1:02:34 > 1:02:37Then, you won't mind me coming, will you?

1:02:38 > 1:02:41Listen now, I don't want any trouble, all right?

1:02:41 > 1:02:44What are you talking about - trouble? On a day like today?

1:02:50 > 1:02:53Come on. No time like the present.

1:02:58 > 1:03:00You haven't got long to get changed.

1:03:00 > 1:03:02Well, I ain't getting changed, Sonia.

1:03:02 > 1:03:04I ain't going.

1:03:04 > 1:03:06Course you are.

1:03:06 > 1:03:09Nah. Just tell your mum I can't face it.

1:03:09 > 1:03:13Max, Mum's not well today, all right? She's in bed, she can't go.

1:03:13 > 1:03:14Well, lucky for her.

1:03:14 > 1:03:18Why don't you get over there and see for yourself how lucky she is, eh?

1:03:18 > 1:03:19Oh, come on, Max.

1:03:19 > 1:03:22Grandad is desperate for one of his kids to be there.

1:03:22 > 1:03:24So please get changed, cos you ain't got long.

1:03:25 > 1:03:28You can't do this to Dot.

1:03:30 > 1:03:32Please, Max.

1:03:34 > 1:03:36Maybe I just don't like funerals.

1:03:36 > 1:03:39I can't believe you'd be that selfish.

1:03:52 > 1:03:53Oh, um...

1:03:54 > 1:03:57From me...

1:03:57 > 1:03:59- and Cora.- Thank you.

1:03:59 > 1:04:01Is Dot receiving?

1:04:01 > 1:04:02We're not stopping, OK?

1:04:04 > 1:04:07I'd like to apologise for yesterday.

1:04:07 > 1:04:08I've lost a child an' all, you know.

1:04:08 > 1:04:11- You what?- Rainie.

1:04:11 > 1:04:15I know she's not dead, but I'll probably never see her again.

1:04:15 > 1:04:16And that's just as bad.

1:04:16 > 1:04:19Look, she's just a bit...you know?

1:04:19 > 1:04:21Yeah, I do know. Just give her those for me, please.

1:04:21 > 1:04:27All I'm saying is that... I...I know what she's going through,

1:04:27 > 1:04:29more than anyone.

1:04:29 > 1:04:31Just tell Dot we'll see her later.

1:04:31 > 1:04:33Will do, Patrick. Thanks again.

1:04:33 > 1:04:38Only, you know, I could help her and console her.

1:04:38 > 1:04:40Just leave it now, man.

1:04:40 > 1:04:44I mean, it's a terrible day as it is without you making it even worse.

1:04:44 > 1:04:48Oh, yes! And your "the man's a junkie"

1:04:48 > 1:04:51really helped the mood yesterday, didn't it?

1:04:51 > 1:04:54I think that's enough. I understand you're friends with my grandma,

1:04:54 > 1:04:55but I don't want any more trouble today.

1:04:55 > 1:04:59Make sure you put ALL of him in the ground.

1:04:59 > 1:05:00Cora!

1:05:14 > 1:05:16You're going to have to keep them oiks away from the food.

1:05:16 > 1:05:19Don't you worry about a thing - we've got a guard dog.

1:05:19 > 1:05:20But she'll be at the funeral.

1:05:22 > 1:05:25- You wrote that speech yet?- Yes. - Show us it.

1:05:25 > 1:05:26Who are you, the speech police?

1:05:26 > 1:05:28Look at you, all nervy!

1:05:28 > 1:05:31Keep calm, you can only do your best.

1:05:31 > 1:05:32We can only live in hope.

1:05:32 > 1:05:34- What'll it be, gents?- Guess.

1:05:34 > 1:05:37THEY LAUGH

1:05:37 > 1:05:39Everyone, the hearse is here.

1:05:40 > 1:05:42Good luck.

1:06:06 > 1:06:08Grandma.

1:06:14 > 1:06:16Mrs B...

1:06:16 > 1:06:18We've, er, we've got to go now.

1:06:18 > 1:06:20KNOCK AT DOOR

1:06:30 > 1:06:32HE KNOCKS DOOR

1:06:32 > 1:06:34Mrs Branning...?

1:06:42 > 1:06:43We're going to take your son now.

1:06:56 > 1:06:57We need to go.

1:06:57 > 1:07:01Yep. You get the car and I'll catch you up, OK?

1:07:01 > 1:07:03Don't forget, I'm on a promise later.

1:07:03 > 1:07:06I won't. See you later.

1:07:06 > 1:07:09PHONE RINGS

1:07:11 > 1:07:12Hello?

1:07:14 > 1:07:16You're what?

1:07:17 > 1:07:22All right, as long as it arrives in the next ten minutes.

1:07:22 > 1:07:24Yeah, OK.

1:07:25 > 1:07:28Got a minute?

1:07:29 > 1:07:32Only, I've been thinking about your website.

1:07:32 > 1:07:35Looks amazing, it really does.

1:07:35 > 1:07:36Yeah, you already said that.

1:07:36 > 1:07:38But I forgot to add something...

1:07:38 > 1:07:41If you're really serious about going into business,

1:07:41 > 1:07:44well, how about I come in with you?

1:07:45 > 1:07:49- You?- Well, I know the ropes... I've got all the contacts, ain't I?

1:07:49 > 1:07:53I can get out there and rustle you up tonnes of business.

1:07:53 > 1:07:55Thing is, Billy, I sort of have my own vision,

1:07:55 > 1:07:57my own way of doing things, so...

1:07:57 > 1:08:01Come on, Lucy, you can't do this all by yourself, you know.

1:08:01 > 1:08:03I mean, who's going to be there to man the phones

1:08:03 > 1:08:06while you're showing clients around, eh?

1:08:06 > 1:08:07It's not a one-man operation.

1:08:09 > 1:08:11You want to make this work, you're going to need some help.

1:08:11 > 1:08:13Trust me.

1:08:18 > 1:08:20You working round here, then?

1:08:20 > 1:08:21Probably till the end of the month.

1:08:21 > 1:08:25- Sounds good, man.- You got to take what you can when you can.

1:08:31 > 1:08:34- The sun's shining, Dot. - I knew it would.

1:09:01 > 1:09:03Grandma...

1:09:22 > 1:09:23Where's Sharon?

1:09:28 > 1:09:29You want a lift?

1:09:32 > 1:09:34Well, I ain't jogging there, am I?

1:09:40 > 1:09:42No, you go ahead, Phil. I'll get a cab.

1:09:43 > 1:09:46Yeah, I'll be, like, two minutes, I promise you.

1:09:46 > 1:09:49Hang on, there's another call, it might be the delivery. Hang on.

1:09:52 > 1:09:53Hello?

1:09:53 > 1:09:55Linda.

1:09:56 > 1:09:58You've found what?

1:09:58 > 1:10:00Oh, you are kidding me!

1:10:00 > 1:10:03Look, just hang onto it and I'll come and grab it, OK?

1:10:23 > 1:10:26Shouldn't you be off paying your respects?

1:10:26 > 1:10:27No, not me, not today.

1:10:27 > 1:10:30Now, how about some of that free wine?

1:10:30 > 1:10:32That's for the wake, Cora.

1:10:32 > 1:10:34I was very fond of Nick.

1:10:37 > 1:10:38Just the one.

1:10:39 > 1:10:42- L?- Yeah?- Is someone going to shout up to Nancy, or...?

1:10:42 > 1:10:45She went out with her mates ages ago.

1:10:45 > 1:10:48I didn't think the skater-boy look quite fit in with a wake.

1:10:48 > 1:10:51You've got to be careful about these things, sensitive.

1:10:51 > 1:10:54Don't want something letting us down, do we?

1:10:57 > 1:10:59ORGAN PLAYS

1:11:02 > 1:11:04- You all right?- Just.

1:11:07 > 1:11:08- Just do Dot proud, yeah?- I will.

1:11:19 > 1:11:22I think of her too, sometimes.

1:11:23 > 1:11:24Hev?

1:11:38 > 1:11:40PHONE RINGS

1:11:45 > 1:11:47Gentlemen, please.

1:12:08 > 1:12:10Please be seated.

1:12:13 > 1:12:17On behalf of Mrs Branning, I would like to welcome you all

1:12:17 > 1:12:19to the celebration and remembrance of Nick Cotton.

1:12:23 > 1:12:25Got a minute? Good.

1:12:27 > 1:12:30I want that lot out of here - only we've got guests coming later.

1:12:30 > 1:12:33- Yeah, I spotted that.- It's not the only thing you've spotted.

1:12:33 > 1:12:35- Can't keep your eyes off that bloke. - What bloke?

1:12:35 > 1:12:38Picking up men is one thing - doing it during a wake is another.

1:12:38 > 1:12:40Now, keep your hormones in your pocket.

1:12:48 > 1:12:50I'd now like to invite Ian Beale to say

1:12:50 > 1:12:52a few words on behalf of Dorothy.

1:12:57 > 1:12:58I've lost my words.

1:12:58 > 1:13:00Ian...

1:13:00 > 1:13:02I can't find it!

1:13:02 > 1:13:05I can't...I can't find my speech.

1:13:06 > 1:13:07OK, right, well...

1:13:08 > 1:13:11Firstly, of course, if anyone has any fond memories of Nick

1:13:11 > 1:13:15that they'd like to share, I'm sure Dorothy would love to hear them.

1:13:16 > 1:13:17I knew that prat would mess up.

1:13:28 > 1:13:30I'd like to say a few words, please.

1:13:30 > 1:13:32Do you have a Bible?

1:13:34 > 1:13:37Did you mean what you said about Hev earlier?

1:13:38 > 1:13:40She's hard to forget, ain't she?

1:13:42 > 1:13:44"Do not let your hearts be troubled.

1:13:45 > 1:13:48"Trust in God, trust also in me.

1:13:50 > 1:13:55"In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so,

1:13:55 > 1:13:57"I would have told you.

1:13:59 > 1:14:02"I am going to prepare a place for you.

1:14:04 > 1:14:07"And if I go and prepare a place for you,

1:14:07 > 1:14:11"I will come back and take you to be with me

1:14:11 > 1:14:14"that you also may be where I am."

1:14:16 > 1:14:20Come on, Patrick, Dot's a saint - you know she'll understand.

1:14:20 > 1:14:23Dex, over here. Why aren't you at work?

1:14:23 > 1:14:25Sharon told Phil I've got to be here -

1:14:25 > 1:14:27something to do with making up the numbers or something.

1:14:27 > 1:14:30Grab a seat, then, before the rush.

1:14:44 > 1:14:46I was going to give this to you on Sunday.

1:14:46 > 1:14:48You might as well have it now.

1:14:48 > 1:14:51I've got no idea what to write in this any more.

1:15:08 > 1:15:13- Oh, thank you!- Mr Beale? - Yeah. It's my eulogy...

1:15:13 > 1:15:14Sorry about that.

1:15:22 > 1:15:25Nicholas Cotton wasn't perfect.

1:15:25 > 1:15:27But then again, who of us really are?

1:15:27 > 1:15:32In fact, you could argue that having flaws only makes us more human.

1:15:33 > 1:15:37Simply put, Nick had his way of doing things, just like I have mine,

1:15:37 > 1:15:40and you have yours.

1:15:42 > 1:15:45But I invite you now to listen as I pay tribute to his life

1:15:45 > 1:15:47and his memory.

1:15:51 > 1:15:54Nick lived an interesting life.

1:15:54 > 1:15:56To his family, his friends,

1:15:56 > 1:15:58he added much.

1:15:58 > 1:16:00You always knew when he was in the room.

1:16:00 > 1:16:04Larger than life, not always ready to agree with you,

1:16:04 > 1:16:08but always, always an experience to be around.

1:16:09 > 1:16:12Unforgettable is the way I would describe him.

1:16:12 > 1:16:16Taken from us far too early, leaving us before we truly

1:16:16 > 1:16:20got to understand and appreciate him as much as I know Dot did.

1:16:22 > 1:16:24We can't even begin to imagine the grief

1:16:24 > 1:16:28and devastation that Dot is bravely facing at this moment.

1:16:29 > 1:16:33It's at these times, when we are at our lowest, that we need

1:16:33 > 1:16:36the bosom of our family and friends.

1:16:36 > 1:16:40And I want to say to Nick, not to worry,

1:16:40 > 1:16:44that we are here for his mum - all of us -

1:16:44 > 1:16:47and we will help her get through this.

1:16:47 > 1:16:50I know that a light has gone out in Dot's life,

1:16:50 > 1:16:54and all we have left now is a memory of a man

1:16:54 > 1:16:59and son who didn't deserve to go before his time.

1:17:01 > 1:17:03Ladies and gentlemen - Nick Cotton.

1:17:15 > 1:17:19We have entrusted Nick to God's mercy,

1:17:19 > 1:17:22and we now commit his body to be cremated.

1:17:22 > 1:17:27Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust...

1:17:28 > 1:17:31In sure and certain hope of the resurrection

1:17:31 > 1:17:36to eternal life through our Lord Jesus Christ,

1:17:36 > 1:17:40who will transform our frail bodies that they may be conformed

1:17:40 > 1:17:41to his glorious body,

1:17:41 > 1:17:47who died, was buried, and rose again for us.

1:17:47 > 1:17:51To him be glory forever. Amen.

1:17:51 > 1:17:53Amen.

1:17:58 > 1:17:59TV IS ON

1:17:59 > 1:18:03- SWITCHES OFF TV - Billy's right. You will need someone.

1:18:03 > 1:18:06I know. But he's so embarrassing.

1:18:06 > 1:18:08I mean, he hasn't got the look, he hasn't got the voice,

1:18:08 > 1:18:10he hasn't got the charm.

1:18:10 > 1:18:11He's not really what I'm about.

1:18:11 > 1:18:16All right, OK, say you could pick anyone, who would it be?

1:18:18 > 1:18:19Young or old?

1:18:19 > 1:18:21Young.

1:18:21 > 1:18:22Male or female?

1:18:23 > 1:18:25Prefer a girl.

1:18:26 > 1:18:27Got anyone in mind?

1:18:39 > 1:18:41All condolences, Mrs Branning,

1:18:41 > 1:18:44but please do come in and make yourself right at home.

1:18:44 > 1:18:46Your favourite tipple, Mrs Branning.

1:18:46 > 1:18:50No. It's not my favourite tipple. It's just medicinal.

1:18:50 > 1:18:54But I think I'll have it today.

1:18:54 > 1:18:57Just the one. Thank you.

1:18:57 > 1:18:59That was really moving, Ian.

1:18:59 > 1:19:01- Really?- Mm-hm.- Oh, thanks. Well...

1:19:01 > 1:19:03I spoke from the heart.

1:19:03 > 1:19:04To think I was worried for a second.

1:19:04 > 1:19:07Oh, Ian. You did him proud today.

1:19:07 > 1:19:10I shall never forget them words of yours.

1:19:12 > 1:19:15We didn't really meet in the best circumstances. Charlie.

1:19:15 > 1:19:18- Hi, I'm Ronnie. - Ah. So YOU'RE Ronnie.

1:19:18 > 1:19:20Is that good or bad?

1:19:20 > 1:19:21That's good.

1:19:21 > 1:19:23Dot thinks the world of you.

1:19:23 > 1:19:25I'm glad you were there for her when she heard the news.

1:19:25 > 1:19:28- Well, I'm glad you were there to take care of Dot.- Thanks.

1:19:31 > 1:19:33Thanks. You were a gent back there.

1:19:33 > 1:19:36Well, couldn't have you crying all over me, could I?

1:19:36 > 1:19:38So did the future ever arrive?

1:19:38 > 1:19:41Yeah, yeah, it has.

1:19:41 > 1:19:43I think it's about looking inside yourself...

1:19:43 > 1:19:48Dex, you tried these prawn sandwiches?

1:19:48 > 1:19:50They'll be repeating later...

1:19:50 > 1:19:52Nice one, Nan. Thanks.

1:19:52 > 1:19:54I've always seen myself as a speech giver.

1:19:54 > 1:19:57To be honest, I think I should've run for Parliament.

1:19:57 > 1:19:58Weren't the biggest turn out, was it?

1:19:58 > 1:20:01- Some people just can't be bothered, can they?- Dorothy.

1:20:01 > 1:20:03Hey, listen, where's your sister?

1:20:03 > 1:20:06Banned. Deemed inappropriate.

1:20:06 > 1:20:08I've always had a knack with words...

1:20:08 > 1:20:10Dorothy, I just wanted to say...

1:20:10 > 1:20:12I've got these new boots on, my feet are killing me.

1:20:12 > 1:20:14I THOUGHT I saw you limping.

1:20:14 > 1:20:16Dorothy, please...

1:20:16 > 1:20:18So, what was your favourite bit?

1:20:18 > 1:20:20Yeah, it was a good speech, that, Ian.

1:20:20 > 1:20:22Give that back. That's theft.

1:20:22 > 1:20:24What's it say here?

1:20:24 > 1:20:26- "www.moving-speeches.com"- Phil...

1:20:26 > 1:20:28What did you do? Feed the dead geezer's name in

1:20:28 > 1:20:30and they do the rest? Is that how it works is it?

1:20:30 > 1:20:31I knew it, I flaming well knew it.

1:20:31 > 1:20:34- I thought you said it was from the heart, Ian?- It was.

1:20:34 > 1:20:36- Yeah, only not yours.- Ian? - Taking all the credit, eh?

1:20:36 > 1:20:38What was I supposed to do?

1:20:38 > 1:20:41- You could've been a bit more honest about it.- Honest?

1:20:41 > 1:20:42What, you really think so? I don't...

1:20:44 > 1:20:45Lost for words now, ain't you?

1:20:45 > 1:20:48Has everybody forgotten him already?

1:20:48 > 1:20:50Only, I ain't heard a word about my Nick.

1:20:50 > 1:20:51No-one's ever mentioned his name.

1:20:51 > 1:20:55I know that none of you really knew him.

1:20:56 > 1:20:59And you're only here for me, not for him.

1:20:59 > 1:21:02And even the two what DID know him -

1:21:02 > 1:21:07Sharon, Ian - you was babies when he was my dear boy.

1:21:09 > 1:21:10You only really remember him

1:21:10 > 1:21:14when he was taken over by the drugs and everybody shunned him.

1:21:15 > 1:21:17The Prodigal Son.

1:21:17 > 1:21:21And he said, "Father, I am not worthy to be thy son.

1:21:21 > 1:21:25"Make me as one of thy hired servants." And he repented.

1:21:25 > 1:21:28But my Nick, he never repented.

1:21:29 > 1:21:32And he didn't come home of his own accord.

1:21:33 > 1:21:35He come home in a coffin.

1:21:41 > 1:21:44Charlie. Take me home, Charlie.

1:21:44 > 1:21:47I'm sorry. It's all over.

1:21:47 > 1:21:50It's finished. Give me that! How dare you!

1:21:52 > 1:21:53- Charlie...- Yeah.

1:22:01 > 1:22:03Oh... Leave me alone.

1:22:14 > 1:22:17- You serious?- Yeah.

1:22:17 > 1:22:19Lauren, oi!

1:22:19 > 1:22:21Turn it off, will you! You're going to run the flaming battery down!

1:22:21 > 1:22:24Sorry! It's not like I'm doing it for free or anything!

1:22:29 > 1:22:32MUSIC BLARES ON RADIO

1:22:32 > 1:22:34LAUREN TURNS RADIO OFF

1:22:48 > 1:22:49Well, there's always Billy.

1:22:54 > 1:22:58You know, the last time I saw my Nick, we had a terrible row.

1:22:58 > 1:23:01We parted on very bad terms.

1:23:01 > 1:23:03I wanted the funeral to put it right.

1:23:03 > 1:23:06You couldn't have done any more.

1:23:06 > 1:23:10I wanted to say sorry.

1:23:10 > 1:23:11To his face.

1:23:13 > 1:23:15Take me to him.

1:23:15 > 1:23:18- You've put him to rest now. - I want to see his face!

1:23:18 > 1:23:20But he'll be gone!

1:23:20 > 1:23:23No. No, they won't do it until the end of the day.

1:23:23 > 1:23:25We could still be in time.

1:23:28 > 1:23:30I don't know why you're all looking at me? It wasn't just my fault.

1:23:30 > 1:23:33- Who else's fault was it, then, eh? - I bet you're loving this!

1:23:33 > 1:23:35- It was all of us.- Well, I was there for Dot!

1:23:35 > 1:23:37Unlike some who didn't even turn up on time.

1:23:37 > 1:23:39Not for the want of trying, Shirley.

1:23:39 > 1:23:41What were you thinking, you idiot?

1:23:41 > 1:23:42What was I thinking!? He didn't help.

1:23:42 > 1:23:45- I was showing you up for who you really are.- Enough.

1:23:45 > 1:23:47At least I got up there. At least I tried.

1:23:49 > 1:23:51Why did you have to go and do that to him?

1:23:51 > 1:23:53- Oh, don't you start! - Well, I am starting.

1:23:53 > 1:23:55All right, we've had a bit of a moment,

1:23:55 > 1:23:58- let's not make it any worse. - You see what you've done?

1:23:58 > 1:24:01You know what? I don't even want to be here.

1:24:01 > 1:24:05We can resurrect this. Why don't you stay, pay your respects...

1:24:05 > 1:24:06Think about Nick Cotton?

1:24:06 > 1:24:08Mick's right, you know...

1:24:08 > 1:24:10Shut up, Patrick! You weren't even there!

1:24:10 > 1:24:11That's all her fault, not mine!

1:24:11 > 1:24:15If you'd really cared, you'd have gone regardless!

1:24:15 > 1:24:18- What are we going to do now, eh? - I have no clue...

1:24:18 > 1:24:20Oh, that's it, Sharon, go on, run off!

1:24:20 > 1:24:22I'm off to see Dot. Show her we care.

1:24:22 > 1:24:25- Bit late for that now, ain't it? - Hardly appropriate, girls, is it?

1:24:25 > 1:24:29Best I leave now, before it gets very inappropriate!

1:24:29 > 1:24:32The idea ain't to scare people off, you know, Shirley.

1:24:32 > 1:24:36Denise, enough, please.

1:24:36 > 1:24:39Patrick, we need to do something. We're here to honour someone...

1:24:39 > 1:24:42I think we missed the moment.

1:24:42 > 1:24:45- First drink on the house?- I think it's a bit late for that, Linda.

1:24:45 > 1:24:48I think I'm going to go and see how she is.

1:24:48 > 1:24:51- Don't everyone go... - I'd like to propose a toast.

1:24:51 > 1:24:55- Nan, please don't. - To the lovely people of Walford.

1:25:13 > 1:25:16But I want to say sorry to him in my own way.

1:25:16 > 1:25:20- The right way. Get the car, Charlie. - You'll only get more upset.

1:25:20 > 1:25:23I want to see him like I should have done when he was here.

1:25:23 > 1:25:26- They're not going to allow it. - All right, then, I'll drive myself.

1:25:26 > 1:25:27Listen. He's not there!

1:25:31 > 1:25:33Not any more.

1:25:33 > 1:25:36Not really. He's gone...

1:25:36 > 1:25:38To a better place.

1:25:38 > 1:25:39DOOR OPENS

1:25:41 > 1:25:44Mrs B, I just wanted to say sorry about what happened...

1:25:44 > 1:25:47Out of my way.

1:25:47 > 1:25:50- Where is she going? - She wants the coffin opened.

1:25:50 > 1:25:54- What? You can't let her do that! - How do I stop her?

1:25:54 > 1:25:56Do you know? Because I don't!

1:25:58 > 1:26:02She was just upset.

1:26:02 > 1:26:06She didn't mean it.

1:26:06 > 1:26:09I did what she asked, I just don't get it.

1:26:09 > 1:26:11But she's just raw.

1:26:11 > 1:26:13You know, she don't know what she's saying.

1:26:13 > 1:26:18In fact, she was reaching out.

1:26:18 > 1:26:20- And we were all to blame.- No.

1:26:22 > 1:26:24That was me.

1:26:24 > 1:26:28I'm the one who's let her down.

1:26:28 > 1:26:31I tried.

1:26:31 > 1:26:33I really tried.

1:26:36 > 1:26:38SQUELCHING

1:26:40 > 1:26:42What's that noise?

1:26:42 > 1:26:45I got my foot wet.

1:26:45 > 1:26:48Lauren, don't get the carpet all wet, will you?

1:26:48 > 1:26:50PHONE RINGS

1:26:52 > 1:26:54Hi, have you got a minute?

1:26:54 > 1:26:57Hello, Deals on Wheels. Oh, yeah, you all right, John?

1:26:57 > 1:26:59Can you run me through those figures, please, mate?

1:26:59 > 1:27:03I just wanted to ask you something. You saw my web page, right?

1:27:03 > 1:27:04Yeah, I loved it.

1:27:04 > 1:27:08OK. Well, obviously, I want to give letting properties a go.

1:27:08 > 1:27:10And Billy said I couldn't do it on my own.

1:27:10 > 1:27:14- And he's right.- What, so you're teaming up with Billy?

1:27:14 > 1:27:18No, are you kidding? I want to team up with you.

1:27:18 > 1:27:19Me?

1:27:19 > 1:27:22What do I know about letting flats?

1:27:22 > 1:27:24Well, I'll teach you.

1:27:24 > 1:27:26All right, mate. No worries, I'll call you back. Cheers.

1:27:26 > 1:27:29Just think about it, we could be the two LBs.

1:27:29 > 1:27:31That's an omen right there.

1:27:31 > 1:27:35Yeah, thanks and everything, but I mean, I can't even do this right...

1:27:35 > 1:27:37Yeah, I mean, I've got to say, she has got a point.

1:27:37 > 1:27:39What do you know?

1:27:39 > 1:27:43Seriously, Lucy, you'd be better off with Billy.

1:27:59 > 1:28:01I brought it in for you.

1:28:04 > 1:28:06So, what's in the package?

1:28:08 > 1:28:11Come on, Sharon, I did you a favour.

1:28:11 > 1:28:13Do you want me to pat you on the back and say, "Well done"?

1:28:13 > 1:28:15So, it's all still down to me, is it?

1:28:15 > 1:28:18Well, I didn't see anyone else waving a speech around.

1:28:18 > 1:28:20Yeah, I didn't see you till halfway through the funeral,

1:28:20 > 1:28:22so don't start taking it out on me.

1:28:22 > 1:28:24I was going to make Dot guest of honour at the opening.

1:28:24 > 1:28:27I was even going to get her to cut a ribbon.

1:28:27 > 1:28:29She won't come within a million miles of the place now.

1:28:29 > 1:28:32Good, she ain't bought a drink in years, has she?

1:28:32 > 1:28:37Anyway, I did my bit, didn't I? Turned up, so now you owe me.

1:28:37 > 1:28:40- I owe you? - A promise is a promise.

1:28:40 > 1:28:43Well, maybe you should try Shirley.

1:28:43 > 1:28:46You think I didn't see you two cosying up in the crematorium?

1:28:46 > 1:28:49- What are you talking about? - Women notice everything.

1:28:49 > 1:28:52- She came and sat down next to me. - All that space and she ends up there?

1:28:52 > 1:28:55What was I supposed to do, shove her away? She was crying.

1:28:55 > 1:28:57Aw... Poor Shirley!

1:28:57 > 1:29:01She was remembering Heather. I couldn't just slide away, could I?

1:29:03 > 1:29:06You know, if I thought for one second that you still liked Shirley...

1:29:08 > 1:29:11I mean, seriously, there's the bottom of the barrel,

1:29:11 > 1:29:15and then there's her underneath it. So...

1:29:18 > 1:29:23So, see this, this is us, Phil. You got that?

1:29:23 > 1:29:26It's you and me and no-one else.

1:29:28 > 1:29:30Say something.

1:29:30 > 1:29:32The Albert.

1:29:32 > 1:29:34Do you like it?

1:29:34 > 1:29:37PHIL CHUCKLES

1:29:37 > 1:29:41- I love it.- You sure?

1:29:41 > 1:29:44And I love who's holding it as well.

1:29:44 > 1:29:46Later.

1:29:48 > 1:29:51- Where are you going now? - To sort your mess.

1:29:57 > 1:29:59Tell me if you can't do this. I won't mind.

1:29:59 > 1:30:00We can go back.

1:30:00 > 1:30:02Oh!

1:30:03 > 1:30:06I have to say, Mrs Branning,

1:30:06 > 1:30:09this is the first time I've ever heard a request like this.

1:30:09 > 1:30:10Unfortunately...

1:30:10 > 1:30:15No, he ain't. No, I can sense him, he's waiting for me.

1:30:17 > 1:30:20If you'd like to give me a minute.

1:30:25 > 1:30:27- Is this one of your jokes? - I wish it was.

1:30:27 > 1:30:30And I know what you're going to say, but there was no stopping her.

1:30:30 > 1:30:32They wouldn't allow it, they couldn't!

1:30:32 > 1:30:35You say that now, but we know Mrs B when she wants something, don't we?

1:30:35 > 1:30:38Yeah.

1:30:47 > 1:30:49Mrs Branning?

1:31:03 > 1:31:06DOT SOBS

1:31:13 > 1:31:15Johnny?

1:31:15 > 1:31:18Earlier, when I said you were, you know...

1:31:18 > 1:31:21..with that builder... I don't know why I said what I did.

1:31:21 > 1:31:25- I do.- Now, Johnny...- I'm not doing this, Mum! I'm not!

1:31:35 > 1:31:38DOT SOBS

1:31:38 > 1:31:41I'm so sorry...

1:31:41 > 1:31:44I wanted to see him...

1:31:44 > 1:31:46I never said goodbye to him...

1:31:48 > 1:31:50You were there for him.

1:31:50 > 1:31:52- Was I?- You know you were.

1:31:54 > 1:31:57And, more importantly,

1:31:57 > 1:31:59Dad knew it as well.

1:32:05 > 1:32:09DOT CRIES

1:32:16 > 1:32:20I'm off to see Patrick.

1:32:20 > 1:32:23Look, don't worry about it, it'll work itself out.

1:32:26 > 1:32:28I was just going to see Dot,

1:32:28 > 1:32:30wondered if anyone wanted to come with me?

1:32:30 > 1:32:33Good luck with that.

1:32:36 > 1:32:38Are you coming?

1:32:40 > 1:32:43- Ian.- No! OK?

1:32:43 > 1:32:46We need to get the name sorted for the restaurant and the sign ordered.

1:32:46 > 1:32:48We open in less than a month.

1:32:48 > 1:32:50Ian, I've told you that needs to be a joint decision.

1:32:50 > 1:32:52You can't do that without me.

1:32:52 > 1:32:54Oh, dear, what's he done now?

1:32:54 > 1:32:56The restaurant name.

1:32:56 > 1:32:59Why don't you just do what I did with my company

1:32:59 > 1:33:00and name it after yourself?

1:33:00 > 1:33:04Beale's. There, problem solved.

1:33:08 > 1:33:11- Well, I suppose it's all right. - I like it.

1:33:11 > 1:33:12Yeah, I bet you do!

1:33:12 > 1:33:14Right, now we've finally decided on that,

1:33:14 > 1:33:17- there's no reason you can't come and see Dot.- No, I'm staying put.

1:33:19 > 1:33:20Ian.

1:33:25 > 1:33:28We'll save these for the next family picnic. What do you reckon?

1:33:28 > 1:33:30MICK CHUCKLES

1:33:31 > 1:33:33- Your mum...- She send you in here?

1:33:36 > 1:33:39Well, funnily enough, sometimes I do have my own thoughts.

1:33:39 > 1:33:42And I'm having one right now.

1:33:42 > 1:33:45And it's about you and it's about your mother...

1:33:45 > 1:33:48and it's about the fact that I can't tell either of you how to behave.

1:33:48 > 1:33:50Because I respect you both too much for that.

1:33:53 > 1:33:55However...

1:33:57 > 1:34:00I don't like an unhappy home.

1:34:00 > 1:34:02I don't do friction.

1:34:04 > 1:34:06I had enough of that with the old man.

1:34:06 > 1:34:09So, I was hoping just...

1:34:09 > 1:34:13you know, maybe one of you could do me a massive favour

1:34:13 > 1:34:18and offer the old branch of the olive, you know?

1:34:20 > 1:34:23Of course, that's going to take the more mature of the two.

1:34:23 > 1:34:27Yeah. That ain't Mum, is it?

1:34:27 > 1:34:29Which is why I'm standing in this kitchen.

1:34:31 > 1:34:33No, it hurts, Dad.

1:34:33 > 1:34:36The things she says.

1:34:36 > 1:34:37I know.

1:34:37 > 1:34:41I've got to be the adult, even though I did nothing wrong?

1:34:41 > 1:34:44I'll leave that for you to decide. There's no pressure.

1:34:44 > 1:34:46I'm sure you'll make the right decision.

1:34:46 > 1:34:49That's not fair, that is total pressure, Dad. That is manipulation.

1:34:49 > 1:34:53Ah! Can't believe you saw through me!

1:34:53 > 1:34:55You are going to make one blinding little lawyer one day.

1:34:55 > 1:34:57You know that, don't you?

1:35:17 > 1:35:18Oh, no, thanks.

1:35:18 > 1:35:21I haven't since I was a teenager behind the bike sheds.

1:35:26 > 1:35:29You been over there yet?

1:35:29 > 1:35:30No, I was just on my way now.

1:35:32 > 1:35:34Got no idea what to say, though.

1:35:37 > 1:35:39What if she never forgives us?

1:35:41 > 1:35:43Then I will never forgive Ian.

1:35:44 > 1:35:46Same goes for Phil.

1:35:48 > 1:35:51Yeah. You're right.

1:35:51 > 1:35:54I'll never forgive him either.

1:35:54 > 1:35:56And you heard me say that.

1:36:06 > 1:36:09Come on, Patrick, cheer up.

1:36:09 > 1:36:11It'll all blow over.

1:36:11 > 1:36:13Maybe you should leave him be for now.

1:36:13 > 1:36:15Come on!

1:36:15 > 1:36:18Put a smile on your miserable mug.

1:36:18 > 1:36:20Leave it.

1:36:20 > 1:36:23Patrick, lighten up!

1:36:23 > 1:36:25Stop it.

1:36:25 > 1:36:27I really wouldn't push it, Cora.

1:36:27 > 1:36:30What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?

1:36:30 > 1:36:32I SAID, STOP IT!

1:36:34 > 1:36:38You know, you're a hard, thoughtless woman and I've had enough of you.

1:36:38 > 1:36:41As soon as you've found somewhere to live, I want you to move out.

1:36:41 > 1:36:45Now, if you'll excuse me I want to visit Dorothy,

1:36:45 > 1:36:49because she's somebody who I do care about.

1:36:59 > 1:37:01I did warn you.

1:37:03 > 1:37:07So, basically, I've collected all the contacts from Butcher's Joints

1:37:07 > 1:37:09- and various other bits of data. - How did you do that?

1:37:09 > 1:37:13Because I'm resourceful, that's what any new business needs.

1:37:13 > 1:37:16You two? Seriously?

1:37:16 > 1:37:19And these here are the names of all the property owners

1:37:19 > 1:37:21that Janine had in her pending file,

1:37:21 > 1:37:24so we just jump in there and broker all the deals.

1:37:24 > 1:37:26Billy, I'd like to remind you, you work for me, not for her.

1:37:26 > 1:37:29- Just ignore him.- Fine, ignore me.

1:37:29 > 1:37:32I'm sure it'll be a great success.

1:37:34 > 1:37:36She don't need no double-glazing, thank you.

1:37:36 > 1:37:38I'm here to see Dot.

1:37:38 > 1:37:41- She ain't in. - Then I'll go in and wait.

1:37:41 > 1:37:44I wouldn't.

1:37:44 > 1:37:47Shirley, maybe for once, this isn't about you and me.

1:37:47 > 1:37:49I'm here for the same reason as you.

1:37:49 > 1:37:51To make up for earlier.

1:37:51 > 1:37:53Yeah, well, I'd still rather you waited out here.

1:37:53 > 1:37:55Look, Shirley, why don't we just leave it, eh?

1:37:58 > 1:38:01Fine. Have it your way. I'll come back later.

1:38:01 > 1:38:03I hate goodbyes.

1:38:05 > 1:38:07I don't know anyone who doesn't.

1:38:07 > 1:38:09And I hate funerals.

1:38:09 > 1:38:11Can't believe I'm agreeing with you.

1:38:11 > 1:38:14All I could think about during that ceremony was Hev.

1:38:15 > 1:38:19Where is she now,

1:38:19 > 1:38:22and what happens to you when you finally shuffle off?

1:38:24 > 1:38:27I'd love to see her again.

1:38:27 > 1:38:30There's a few people I'd like to see an' all.

1:38:30 > 1:38:34You put heart and soul into living and...

1:38:34 > 1:38:37..in the end, it's not even worth it.

1:38:37 > 1:38:39Well, maybe you should ditch the fags,

1:38:39 > 1:38:42you'll be shuffling off before your time.

1:38:42 > 1:38:44Was that concern I hear in your voice?

1:38:44 > 1:38:45You're hearing things.

1:38:47 > 1:38:50Do you ever wonder what your life would be like

1:38:50 > 1:38:52if Dennis was still alive?

1:38:52 > 1:38:55Dennis is none of your business.

1:38:55 > 1:38:57It'd be different, though, wouldn't it?

1:38:57 > 1:38:59You wouldn't be with Phil, that's for sure.

1:38:59 > 1:39:02- And you would?- Who knows?

1:39:02 > 1:39:04No chance. I'll tell you that for nothing.

1:39:04 > 1:39:07Was he like Phil?

1:39:07 > 1:39:08Dennis?

1:39:08 > 1:39:10I'm just asking.

1:39:12 > 1:39:13He...

1:39:13 > 1:39:16He was a good man.

1:39:16 > 1:39:20It's always the good ones that go first, isn't it?

1:39:20 > 1:39:23It's funny.

1:39:23 > 1:39:26You meet someone else.

1:39:26 > 1:39:29Someone completely different.

1:39:29 > 1:39:33Me and Phil go way back. We've always had something special.

1:39:35 > 1:39:37So, sorry to disappoint you, Shirley, I'm hanging on to him.

1:39:37 > 1:39:39You do that.

1:39:39 > 1:39:44Because I ain't interested.

1:39:45 > 1:39:48I'm allowed in now, am I?

1:39:48 > 1:39:51Well, we can be civil, can't we?

1:39:51 > 1:39:53For now.

1:40:04 > 1:40:08- I thought you promised us dinner? - You still up for that?

1:40:08 > 1:40:10Yeah. I mean, I've got a load of studying to do tonight,

1:40:10 > 1:40:13but I'm up for it.

1:40:13 > 1:40:16And... I managed to nick this back off you.

1:40:16 > 1:40:18Don't open it till Sunday.

1:40:18 > 1:40:20Course I won't!

1:40:32 > 1:40:34- Here you are. Listen to this. - Cheers.

1:40:34 > 1:40:36Fatboy's just been in.

1:40:36 > 1:40:40He said that Dot has gone back to the crematorium to see Nick.

1:40:40 > 1:40:42- Like, physically see Nick. - Did he try and stop her?

1:40:42 > 1:40:44I don't know.

1:40:45 > 1:40:48You weren't there, Roxy.

1:40:48 > 1:40:51The crematorium was practically empty.

1:40:51 > 1:40:54Everything about it was just awful.

1:40:54 > 1:40:57Well, I'll forgive Dot for losing the plot, then.

1:40:57 > 1:40:59She didn't lose the plot.

1:40:59 > 1:41:03Everything she said was absolutely right.

1:41:03 > 1:41:07And why not go back and see him if she wants to?

1:41:07 > 1:41:10Letting go is the hardest thing you'll ever have to do.

1:41:10 > 1:41:12You know what, maybe you shouldn't have gone today.

1:41:12 > 1:41:15I know, I just thought maybe I could help in some way,

1:41:15 > 1:41:16maybe say something that would...

1:41:16 > 1:41:19But you can't! You can't, can you? There's nothing...

1:41:19 > 1:41:22There's just nothing that helps. I know, I've tried.

1:41:22 > 1:41:24I'm going to go.

1:41:24 > 1:41:25Where you going?

1:41:27 > 1:41:30- Come on, Ron. - "Come on, Ron", what?

1:41:30 > 1:41:32- You're going to see Stacey. - Actually...

1:41:32 > 1:41:34I thought you were going to drop all of this.

1:41:36 > 1:41:38It's my birthday tomorrow, yeah?

1:41:38 > 1:41:40So, if you were stuck on what to get me for a gift,

1:41:40 > 1:41:42you could leave her well alone.

1:41:42 > 1:41:45Now, that, that would be the perfect present, Ron.

1:41:45 > 1:41:50I am going to see Dot, going to see if she's back yet.

1:41:50 > 1:41:55Look, I'm not going to see Stacey. I promise!

1:41:55 > 1:41:58Just stop worrying, all right? I'll see you later.

1:42:01 > 1:42:03ROXY SIGHS

1:42:21 > 1:42:23DOORBELL RINGS

1:42:27 > 1:42:28Kids are meant to love their dad, right?

1:42:28 > 1:42:31That's what you're supposed to do?

1:42:31 > 1:42:32I suppose...

1:42:32 > 1:42:35Right, well, I'm officially not loving him. Just so you know.

1:42:35 > 1:42:37Come on, Luce?

1:42:37 > 1:42:39The worst thing is that he's right.

1:42:39 > 1:42:43I can't work with Billy Mitchell. It's a stupid idea.

1:42:43 > 1:42:46- Then just don't do it. - But I need someone!

1:42:46 > 1:42:48You interested?

1:42:48 > 1:42:50I mean, the whole thing's dead now, anyway.

1:42:50 > 1:42:52So there's no point.

1:42:52 > 1:42:57So, what, you're just going to give up after half a day?

1:42:57 > 1:43:00If that's you, Luce, then you're right to stop.

1:43:00 > 1:43:02That's not you, is it?

1:43:16 > 1:43:19Well, someone say something?

1:43:19 > 1:43:23- Well, I think sorry might be... - Yeah, that's a good start, yeah.

1:43:23 > 1:43:25And after that?

1:43:25 > 1:43:27- Assuming she doesn't throw us out. - Patrick?

1:43:29 > 1:43:32What did you want to hear, when you first lost your Paul?

1:43:32 > 1:43:35- His voice.- But knowing you couldn't have that?

1:43:36 > 1:43:39Didn't want anything.

1:43:39 > 1:43:41You're right. You just want them back.

1:43:41 > 1:43:44- That's the only thing in your head. - But you just keep going, don't you?

1:43:44 > 1:43:47Yep. I've got a sister.

1:43:47 > 1:43:49- And I've got friends. - Yeah. Is it enough?

1:43:49 > 1:43:51It's never enough.

1:43:51 > 1:43:53You too?

1:43:53 > 1:43:54'Fraid so.

1:43:54 > 1:43:58Don't get me wrong, I mean, I've very glad I've got you all.

1:44:00 > 1:44:04Right, that's what we're going to do, then.

1:44:04 > 1:44:06Offer what we can.

1:44:06 > 1:44:07I'll go with that.

1:44:07 > 1:44:09The main thing is that we don't leave

1:44:09 > 1:44:11until we do what we came to do.

1:44:11 > 1:44:14Totally agree.

1:44:14 > 1:44:17So, when she asks why we're all here...

1:44:17 > 1:44:20We just tell her.

1:44:20 > 1:44:22Yeah. Plain and simple.

1:44:22 > 1:44:24We're her friends.

1:44:28 > 1:44:29It's ruined!

1:44:29 > 1:44:32Well, you'll be able to buy plenty more soon enough.

1:44:32 > 1:44:34You still want me?

1:44:34 > 1:44:35Your dad's an idiot.

1:44:35 > 1:44:38No, but he's not, though, is he? That's the whole point.

1:44:38 > 1:44:39He's smart, Lucy, he knows stuff!

1:44:39 > 1:44:41Come on, Lauren, this could be amazing!

1:44:41 > 1:44:44I'm not going to fail, despite what everyone says,

1:44:44 > 1:44:46this is going to work.

1:44:46 > 1:44:49So, are you with me or not?

1:44:57 > 1:45:01Mrs B... How did it, um...

1:45:01 > 1:45:02Cup of tea?

1:45:02 > 1:45:05Of course, it's just... I should...

1:45:24 > 1:45:26That's not burning food you can smell. It's not.

1:45:26 > 1:45:30It's not! It just seems that way.

1:45:30 > 1:45:33They'll all be back, Mick, don't you worry about that.

1:45:33 > 1:45:37Worry, L? Me? You know me better than that.

1:45:37 > 1:45:39Was just wondering where Shirl's got to.

1:45:42 > 1:45:44ALARM BEEPS

1:45:44 > 1:45:47So sorry, Dot. We didn't want to surprise you.

1:45:47 > 1:45:48But we couldn't just keep away.

1:45:48 > 1:45:51So, you think that makes it better, do you, Sharon?

1:45:51 > 1:45:54Well, I doubt my Nick would want you here,

1:45:54 > 1:45:58so I suggest that you all go.

1:45:58 > 1:46:00Dot, we messed up!

1:46:00 > 1:46:04We turned out for you, Dot, I'm sorry we forgot Nick.

1:46:04 > 1:46:06Well, in some ways it's understandable.

1:46:06 > 1:46:09I mean, he wasn't everyone's favourite person, was he?

1:46:09 > 1:46:12But he was your favourite person,

1:46:12 > 1:46:14and we didn't give you or him enough respect.

1:46:14 > 1:46:18We should have seen him through your eyes, not ours.

1:46:18 > 1:46:21Bit late to come to that conclusion, ain't it?

1:46:21 > 1:46:23No, Dot.

1:46:23 > 1:46:26We're not here hoping that you'd forgive us, I mean, why should you?

1:46:26 > 1:46:30It's just that if you could find something, anything at all

1:46:30 > 1:46:35that was good about today, then we'd all like to share it.

1:46:35 > 1:46:39So, you've come round here on the off chance of salvaging something?

1:46:39 > 1:46:42- Well, you can't.- Dot, please...

1:46:42 > 1:46:46Sharing him weren't what I really wanted.

1:46:46 > 1:46:48Because he was my Nick.

1:46:48 > 1:46:51Nobody else's.

1:46:51 > 1:46:53He was my Nick.

1:46:55 > 1:46:58We're not going, Dot.

1:46:58 > 1:47:00We're not, Dot.

1:47:00 > 1:47:04- Dorothy.- We're sorry.

1:47:04 > 1:47:07And we're sorry that we can't think of anything else to say.

1:47:12 > 1:47:14Arthur.

1:47:14 > 1:47:17Put the kettle on?

1:47:17 > 1:47:18We've got company.

1:47:25 > 1:47:27- Are you sure about this?- Yes!

1:47:27 > 1:47:29You're definitely 100% sure?

1:47:29 > 1:47:32Do you want to wash cars for the rest of your life?

1:47:32 > 1:47:35All right, well, if you think that I can do it.

1:47:35 > 1:47:37YES!

1:47:37 > 1:47:39Celebrating?

1:47:39 > 1:47:41Yes. Yes, we are.

1:47:41 > 1:47:44I'll have a lemonade and whatever my partner's having.

1:47:44 > 1:47:47Orange juice, please.

1:47:47 > 1:47:49Luce, I made those calls...

1:47:49 > 1:47:53And there's seven possibles who want to rent out their properties out.

1:47:53 > 1:47:56- Oh, Billy's involved?- Yeah.- No.

1:47:56 > 1:47:58What do you mean, no?

1:48:00 > 1:48:03No. I thought it was a good idea but... No.

1:48:03 > 1:48:05Thanks.

1:48:05 > 1:48:08My dad might need somebody.

1:48:08 > 1:48:10Back to frying chips, eh?

1:48:10 > 1:48:12Let's hope it don't blow up in your face.

1:48:16 > 1:48:19Thank you. Cheers!

1:48:45 > 1:48:49Come on, Nan, you know he didn't mean it.

1:48:49 > 1:48:50We don't need him anyway.

1:48:50 > 1:48:53Erm, we?

1:48:53 > 1:48:55I'm not leaving without you, Dexter.

1:49:05 > 1:49:08- So, you sticking around? - Yeah, I think so.

1:49:08 > 1:49:10Maybe see you later.

1:49:10 > 1:49:15How about definitely? We'll grab a drink one night.

1:49:15 > 1:49:17Yeah, we could.

1:49:25 > 1:49:28I don't like this. Lying to her, seeing how upset she is.

1:49:28 > 1:49:29How do you think I feel?

1:49:30 > 1:49:34Look, take this and we say no more.

1:49:40 > 1:49:42I understand.

1:49:55 > 1:49:56It's done.

1:50:04 > 1:50:07What makes you think you're welcome back in this pub?

1:50:07 > 1:50:10- I invited her!- Calm down, Shirley, or I'll have to hose you down again.

1:50:10 > 1:50:14Try it, Tosh, and I'll shove that hose somewhere where you don't want it.

1:50:14 > 1:50:16- Can't you two just try and get on? - BOTH:- No!

1:50:18 > 1:50:22The weird thing is, I quite like it.

1:50:22 > 1:50:24What, your family ripping chunks out of each other?

1:50:24 > 1:50:27Turn it down, Nance! I'm trying to write an essay!

1:50:27 > 1:50:28Shut up, you little boffin!

1:50:28 > 1:50:32Yeah, feels like a proper home.

1:50:32 > 1:50:34You're an old softy, Mick Carter.

1:50:35 > 1:50:37- Do what?- You heard.

1:50:41 > 1:50:44KNOCK ON DOOR

1:50:45 > 1:50:48Someone else will get it. Come here.

1:50:48 > 1:50:50SHE LAUGHS

1:50:50 > 1:50:51PHONE RINGS

1:50:51 > 1:50:53Oh! You get the phone.

1:50:53 > 1:50:55PHONE RINGS

1:50:55 > 1:50:57KNOCK ON DOOR

1:51:02 > 1:51:03Hello?

1:51:03 > 1:51:04Yes?

1:51:07 > 1:51:09Sorry, I'm not interested.

1:51:15 > 1:51:16KNOCK ON DOOR

1:51:16 > 1:51:17All right, all right!

1:51:23 > 1:51:27- Oh.- The agency are only sending them here!

1:51:27 > 1:51:30- Who?- The bar staff. For my interviews.

1:51:30 > 1:51:34I mean, seriously, The Albert and the Queen Vic - hardly the same place!

1:51:34 > 1:51:35I even got the sign up today, and all!

1:51:35 > 1:51:37I mean, I swear they've done this on purpose

1:51:37 > 1:51:40because I was haggling over fees.

1:51:40 > 1:51:42Wait a minute - you're calling it The Albert?

1:51:42 > 1:51:45- Yeah. Yeah, didn't I mention it?- No.

1:51:45 > 1:51:47Well, anyway, I'd cancel the whole thing

1:51:47 > 1:51:49but we're opening next week and I've got to get contracts sorted.

1:51:49 > 1:51:52Look, I'm sorry to ask, Linda, but would you mind sending them

1:51:52 > 1:51:54round the corner for me?

1:51:54 > 1:51:55Why bother?

1:51:55 > 1:51:57- Do the interviews here.- Here?

1:51:57 > 1:52:01Why not? There's more space. Nobody hammering in the background.

1:52:01 > 1:52:04If they really mess up, they can stick around and drown their sorrows.

1:52:04 > 1:52:08Thank you, Linda. You are such a mate. Cheers.

1:52:13 > 1:52:15Well, you did ask him.

1:52:15 > 1:52:19Yeah, well, I'm going to ask his opinion as well.

1:52:21 > 1:52:24Dad, what do you reckon about this?

1:52:24 > 1:52:26Yeah, for what?

1:52:26 > 1:52:29Well, we're going to the bank to ask for a loan.

1:52:29 > 1:52:33- Right, so you're going to go through with that, are you? - Yeah, why wouldn't we?

1:52:33 > 1:52:37All we need is a bit of start-up capital for a solicitor's fee and marketing material.

1:52:37 > 1:52:42- Paperclips and that. - Yeah. No, you look... nice.

1:52:42 > 1:52:46Nice? Max, appearance is important.

1:52:46 > 1:52:51Maybe you'd sell a few more cars if you looked a little less crumpled.

1:52:52 > 1:52:56- Sorry?- You know what they say about owners and their dogs?

1:52:56 > 1:52:57I'm not being funny, Dad,

1:52:57 > 1:52:59but you do look a lot more like Tramp these days!

1:52:59 > 1:53:01Lauren, I'm just about to make two grand for dropping

1:53:01 > 1:53:03a motor off in Wanstead.

1:53:03 > 1:53:06So don't worry about me. Worry about what you're going to do

1:53:06 > 1:53:08- when the bank manager laughs in your face.- Dad!

1:53:08 > 1:53:10Banks don't give money to anyone, do they?

1:53:10 > 1:53:14You ain't got no assets, Lauren. And you've hardly even had a proper job. Think about it.

1:53:17 > 1:53:19Do you know what, he's got a point.

1:53:19 > 1:53:21This is clearly a bad idea.

1:53:21 > 1:53:22Don't say that!

1:53:22 > 1:53:24I'm not being funny, Lucy, but look at me.

1:53:24 > 1:53:27I don't know nothing about business - you've done this all before.

1:53:27 > 1:53:30Not like this! We are starting our own company from scratch.

1:53:30 > 1:53:32Which is ridiculous.

1:53:32 > 1:53:36Lauren, you're creative, you're intelligent.

1:53:38 > 1:53:40And you're my best friend and I really need you.

1:53:42 > 1:53:45We just need to...

1:53:45 > 1:53:47tweak your image a little bit.

1:53:53 > 1:53:56Bill. Bill.

1:53:56 > 1:53:59Do you know what, I'm going to start calling you that from now on.

1:53:59 > 1:54:01I'm just the messenger.

1:54:01 > 1:54:04What's she doing in here? We ain't even open yet.

1:54:04 > 1:54:06I said she could do a couple of interviews.

1:54:06 > 1:54:09Why is she letting a competitor interview staff in our pub?

1:54:09 > 1:54:11Have you seen the books lately?

1:54:11 > 1:54:14- We in trouble?- If L says it's all right for Sharon to be here,

1:54:14 > 1:54:16it's all right for Sharon to be here.

1:54:26 > 1:54:28Sorry I hosed you down.

1:54:28 > 1:54:29Shouldn't you be at work?

1:54:29 > 1:54:34Day off. Thought I'd come and see my favourite lady.

1:54:34 > 1:54:36Don't worry, we're off out later.

1:54:36 > 1:54:38How come Fireman Samantha's sniffing about again?

1:54:38 > 1:54:40I don't know - maybe because she's my girlfriend?

1:54:40 > 1:54:43Will you turn it in, please? We've got bigger things to worry about.

1:54:43 > 1:54:46If that market closes, we'll lose all our punters.

1:54:46 > 1:54:48Then why is Linda giving a helping hand to our biggest rival?

1:54:48 > 1:54:53Like Mick says, keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

1:54:53 > 1:54:55It's all part of my master plan.

1:54:55 > 1:55:00Oh, and what's that, then? Show everyone you're a mug?

1:55:00 > 1:55:03Who was that on the phone before?

1:55:03 > 1:55:05Nothing important.

1:55:05 > 1:55:06Something's happened.

1:55:06 > 1:55:07Mick!

1:55:15 > 1:55:20You have one minute to come down here and move that van or I'll get someone to move it for you!

1:55:20 > 1:55:23What is it about men with a little bit of power, eh?

1:55:23 > 1:55:26Could you just... Could you please just let them finish?

1:55:26 > 1:55:29It's just Sharon's really doing my head in about opening night next week.

1:55:29 > 1:55:33I'd really appreciate it.

1:55:33 > 1:55:36All right, for my two favourite ladies.

1:55:36 > 1:55:40- Just tell them to move it when they are finished.- Thanks.

1:55:41 > 1:55:44- Oh, put your tongue away. - What? I'm just doing a bit of window shopping.

1:55:44 > 1:55:47Anyway, Amy is at Jack's for the weekend, so...

1:55:47 > 1:55:50What's the plan? For tonight.

1:55:50 > 1:55:53I thought we'll hit the West End, a few bars, and then we'll...

1:55:53 > 1:55:55We were just going for a quiet drink.

1:55:55 > 1:55:56You said don't make a fuss.

1:55:56 > 1:55:59Well, I didn't mean it. It's my birthday.

1:55:59 > 1:56:01We should be out all night.

1:56:01 > 1:56:03Look, we're not 18 any more, Roxy.

1:56:03 > 1:56:07Thank you for reminding me! Thank you.

1:56:13 > 1:56:15Bloke called Brian for you. Says he rang earlier.

1:56:19 > 1:56:20Do you owe him money, then?

1:56:26 > 1:56:28Who's Brian?

1:56:28 > 1:56:30It's my dad's neighbour.

1:56:30 > 1:56:31Reckons the old man's had a fall.

1:56:31 > 1:56:35- Shouldn't you go and see him, then? - Nah.

1:56:35 > 1:56:38- Look, I ain't your dad's biggest fan either but... - Well, it's not really my problem.

1:56:38 > 1:56:40Well, thanks for coming. Cheers.

1:56:41 > 1:56:47Oh! I envy you, Linda. Traditional pub, family behind the bar.

1:56:47 > 1:56:50You know, trying to find staff to work for me at The Albert is a nightmare.

1:56:50 > 1:56:53- I can imagine.- I mean, I need people who can entertain

1:56:53 > 1:56:55sophisticated clientele, you know.

1:56:55 > 1:56:59I mean, here people are happy if you bung them a lukewarm pint and some out-of-date pork scratchings.

1:56:59 > 1:57:02Not that there is anything wrong with that.

1:57:02 > 1:57:04You know, you're traditional, like I said.

1:57:04 > 1:57:07You know, most landlords - they'd have come in here and completely

1:57:07 > 1:57:10modernised the place, they'd have put in a pool table and all sorts.

1:57:10 > 1:57:13But not you.

1:57:13 > 1:57:16Oh, Linda, I just want The Albert to be the best bar in Walford, you know.

1:57:16 > 1:57:19- I've got all these amazing plans. - Like what?

1:57:19 > 1:57:23Now that would be telling, wouldn't it?

1:57:23 > 1:57:27I thought I told you to refill the optics.

1:57:27 > 1:57:29What's rattled her cage?

1:57:29 > 1:57:30No idea.

1:57:32 > 1:57:35Can I get a vodka and tonic? Double, please.

1:57:35 > 1:57:38- What are we celebrating? - How old do you think I look?

1:57:38 > 1:57:40Not a day over 21.

1:57:40 > 1:57:43I'm 36. Today.

1:57:43 > 1:57:46Which according to my sister means I'm too old to celebrate.

1:57:46 > 1:57:49No. You're never too old for a party!

1:57:49 > 1:57:54Here you are, start with that. On the house.

1:57:54 > 1:57:57Aw, thank you! Well, at least somebody cares, eh?

1:58:01 > 1:58:03Were you chatting her up?

1:58:03 > 1:58:08Course I'm not! It's Roxy. She's a mate.

1:58:08 > 1:58:11Anyway, it's her sister I want to have a chat with.

1:58:14 > 1:58:16I told you this was a waste of time.

1:58:16 > 1:58:18No, we just need a proper shop.

1:58:18 > 1:58:21You know, somewhere a bit more "young professional".

1:58:21 > 1:58:23But that's hardly me, is it?

1:58:23 > 1:58:25OK, this is the new you.

1:58:25 > 1:58:28Lauren Branning - businesswoman - entrepreneur!

1:58:28 > 1:58:32I didn't know he was still around. Where's he been staying, then?

1:58:32 > 1:58:35The market inspector's.

1:58:35 > 1:58:36How do you know that?

1:58:36 > 1:58:38Dad said.

1:58:38 > 1:58:41Come on, I know somewhere else we can go.

1:58:50 > 1:58:51Jane!

1:58:53 > 1:58:56Hey, are you busy? I was going to cook lunch for...

1:58:56 > 1:58:58Oh, no, sorry, I'm at Ian's all afternoon.

1:58:58 > 1:59:03- Oh? Hot date, yeah?- No, it's a meeting about the restaurant. We've got the fitters coming round.

1:59:03 > 1:59:09I was only joking. See you later.

1:59:09 > 1:59:15We've only just cleared up from the wake, Tina. It's hardly appropriate.

1:59:15 > 1:59:17A party is just what everyone needs.

1:59:17 > 1:59:20And we've got a load of leftovers in the fridge to use up.

1:59:20 > 1:59:26Think about it, Mick, OK? Load of happy punters, tills ringing...

1:59:26 > 1:59:28I know you're worried about money.

1:59:28 > 1:59:33You know, my name might not be over the door, but I want to help.

1:59:33 > 1:59:34Yeah, why not?

1:59:37 > 1:59:38- I love you.- I love you.

1:59:44 > 1:59:47All I'm saying is, the vintage look is very fashionable.

1:59:47 > 1:59:51- I thought we'd agreed bright and contemporary.- Can't we do both? - It'd be a contradiction.

1:59:51 > 1:59:54Not necessarily. We don't want to come across as sterile.

1:59:54 > 1:59:57Why can't you just trust my vision?

1:59:57 > 2:00:00- Your vision?- Yeah.- What about my vision?- I'm the one who started this restaurant.

2:00:00 > 2:00:02Oh, and how did that go for you?!

2:00:02 > 2:00:05I want my restaurant to be cutting edge. What is wrong with that?

2:00:05 > 2:00:08- Where's the warmth?- What, you think I can't make a restaurant warm?

2:00:08 > 2:00:10Ian, you wouldn't know warm if I set your trousers on fire!

2:00:10 > 2:00:13You know something, I have really missed this.

2:00:15 > 2:00:16Me too.

2:00:22 > 2:00:26Jane, I didn't mean that!

2:00:26 > 2:00:28Don't even think about following me!

2:00:32 > 2:00:34What, a party?

2:00:34 > 2:00:37Yeah, we'll handle catering, decorations, drinks...

2:00:37 > 2:00:41We'll have a nice bottle of bubbly on ice for when you arrive.

2:00:41 > 2:00:44Yeah, I'm sorry, it's just, it's Roxy's birthday.

2:00:44 > 2:00:47I don't know if she's going to want to spend it at the Vic.

2:00:47 > 2:00:49No? She's sat in there right now. By herself.

2:00:49 > 2:00:51Look, you're her family.

2:00:51 > 2:00:54Don't you want to make sure she's looked after, made a fuss of?

2:00:54 > 2:00:56Where else are you going to get at this notice?

2:00:56 > 2:00:58And you know we throw a naughty party.

2:00:58 > 2:01:00Oh, come on, it'll be fun.

2:01:02 > 2:01:05All right. How much is it going to cost me?

2:01:05 > 2:01:10I'm really sorry, Lucy. When the bank manager said "gross", I thought he meant...

2:01:10 > 2:01:12Don't worry about it. It's just a set back.

2:01:12 > 2:01:14You heard what he said, though!

2:01:14 > 2:01:16"You do not meet our lending criteria."

2:01:16 > 2:01:19I am not giving up, all right? I need this.

2:01:19 > 2:01:23I'm tired of slaving around for people who treat me like dirt.

2:01:23 > 2:01:25And this time next year, we are

2:01:25 > 2:01:30going to be sitting in our own luxury offices, I promise you.

2:01:30 > 2:01:32Tea to go.

2:01:32 > 2:01:35You all right? Your dad told me you had a meeting at the bank.

2:01:35 > 2:01:37How'd it go?

2:01:37 > 2:01:39Not good.

2:01:39 > 2:01:41Right, well, I'm sorry to hear that.

2:01:41 > 2:01:42Chin up, eh?

2:01:44 > 2:01:46Right, I'll leave you ladies to it.

2:01:49 > 2:01:53No, do you know what? You are right. We can do this.

2:01:53 > 2:01:55You're right, we can.

2:01:55 > 2:01:59We just need to find someone with some spare cash.

2:02:02 > 2:02:05A party? For the Mitchells?

2:02:05 > 2:02:09I think it's a great idea. With The Albert opening next week, we need to remind everyone

2:02:09 > 2:02:13- that we're still the best boozer in Walford.- L's right.

2:02:13 > 2:02:17If we want this place to survive, we need to be proactive. We all need to graft together.

2:02:17 > 2:02:21Right, that's you and me decided then, Shirl. We're on decorations.

2:02:21 > 2:02:24Linda, Nancy, go and have a look at that grub from the wake - see if there's anything usable.

2:02:24 > 2:02:27Johnny boy, the floors and the khazis.

2:02:27 > 2:02:29I want 'em scrubbed, I want 'em spotless.

2:02:29 > 2:02:31Why does he get all the glamorous jobs?

2:02:31 > 2:02:33Come on then, liven up!

2:02:36 > 2:02:39You're worried about him, I can tell.

2:02:39 > 2:02:42You know, if you go and check Stan's OK,

2:02:42 > 2:02:46- it don't mean you've forgiven him. - Why should I?- For Tina? She cares even if you don't.

2:02:46 > 2:02:49He's probably done it on purpose, so he can weasel his way back into our lives.

2:02:49 > 2:02:52What, so you're just going to abandon him?

2:02:52 > 2:02:53He abandoned us.

2:02:55 > 2:02:58Sure you're up for this?

2:02:58 > 2:03:00OK, I'll see you later. Bye.

2:03:02 > 2:03:05You all right, Ronnie? Listen, are you seeing Stacey again?

2:03:05 > 2:03:07No, I'm not. Why don't you leave her alone, Max?

2:03:07 > 2:03:11All right. Only asking.

2:03:11 > 2:03:13Oh!

2:03:13 > 2:03:14I am so sorry!

2:03:14 > 2:03:16Can't you just watch where you're going?

2:03:16 > 2:03:18I wanted to drink it, not wear it!

2:03:23 > 2:03:25Johnny! Get the mop!

2:03:29 > 2:03:31What time you clocking off?

2:03:31 > 2:03:35- I'm ready for a big night with my little lady.- Yeah...

2:03:35 > 2:03:38We've just had a party booking. Mick's going to need my help.

2:03:38 > 2:03:39What about our night out?

2:03:39 > 2:03:42We can go out tomorrow. It's Roxy's birthday!

2:03:45 > 2:03:46No, no, no, don't be like that!

2:03:56 > 2:03:58Peace offering?

2:03:58 > 2:03:59Er, yeah, cheers.

2:04:04 > 2:04:06Sorry, I shouldn't have bitten your head off.

2:04:06 > 2:04:11Can't blame you, after I poured scalding hot coffee down you.

2:04:11 > 2:04:13Trust me, I've had a lot of pain inflicted on me

2:04:13 > 2:04:17by women over the years. That weren't even in the top ten.

2:04:17 > 2:04:19The voice of experience.

2:04:19 > 2:04:24Well, you know, my life ain't worked out how I had it all planned.

2:04:24 > 2:04:27How so?

2:04:27 > 2:04:31It's all right, just ignore me. Just being a grumpy old man.

2:04:31 > 2:04:33Come on. You'd be doing me a favour.

2:04:33 > 2:04:35Take my mind off my own problems.

2:04:38 > 2:04:41Well, you know. It's just...

2:04:41 > 2:04:46well, just seeing Stacey again brought a lot of stuff back.

2:04:49 > 2:04:52- Bradley?- Yeah.

2:04:52 > 2:04:57Yeah, but not just him. Tanya. Just a lot of ghosts.

2:04:59 > 2:05:04Max, maybe you should focus on the future.

2:05:04 > 2:05:05Pastures new.

2:05:08 > 2:05:09Yeah.

2:05:11 > 2:05:13Yeah, I think you might be right.

2:05:20 > 2:05:24Listen, stay and have a little drink with me.

2:05:26 > 2:05:30Has someone put Viagra in the water supply around here or something?

2:05:46 > 2:05:47So? How did you two get on?

2:05:50 > 2:05:51Right.

2:05:53 > 2:05:55Well, don't worry, you'll think of something.

2:05:55 > 2:05:58We already have.

2:05:58 > 2:06:01Yeah, we just need a grand. To start us off.

2:06:01 > 2:06:04No. Ain't going to happen.

2:06:04 > 2:06:06See? Forget it, Luce.

2:06:06 > 2:06:10Why would he believe I could actually achieve something anyway?

2:06:14 > 2:06:17Well, I just hope she kept the receipt for that suit.

2:06:22 > 2:06:23What?

2:06:23 > 2:06:27You know, a year ago she was drinking herself into a early grave.

2:06:27 > 2:06:29And now she's trying to launch her own business.

2:06:29 > 2:06:35Any real man would give his daughter a bit of support.

2:06:35 > 2:06:39Well, if you can't get here on time, don't bother coming.

2:06:39 > 2:06:42You still looking for that bar staff?

2:06:42 > 2:06:45Well, so far they've all been a waste of space.

2:06:45 > 2:06:47- You?- Yeah, why not?

2:06:47 > 2:06:48Well, what would your family say?

2:06:48 > 2:06:51I could not care less what they think. They treat me like their lackey.

2:06:51 > 2:06:55Anyway, I want to work somewhere with a bit more style.

2:06:55 > 2:06:59Well, thanks for the compliment but I don't think it's a good idea.

2:06:59 > 2:07:02- Why not? I've been pulling pints since before I could walk. - Well, the thing is,

2:07:02 > 2:07:05we need people who can do more than just pull pints.

2:07:05 > 2:07:08OK, then what will it be? Long Island Ice Tea?

2:07:08 > 2:07:10Mojito? Rusty Nail?

2:07:10 > 2:07:13You've got a bit of swagger, I'll give you that.

2:07:13 > 2:07:16Well, I've never had any complaints yet.

2:07:16 > 2:07:18And you don't mind that you'd be sleeping with the enemy?

2:07:18 > 2:07:21No offence, you're not really my type.

2:07:21 > 2:07:23Cheeky.

2:07:23 > 2:07:26Well, go on, then. I'll have a Cosmopolitan.

2:07:26 > 2:07:27But if you want to work for me,

2:07:27 > 2:07:29it'll have to be the best I've ever tasted.

2:07:43 > 2:07:45What are you doing here?

2:07:45 > 2:07:47Shouldn't you be at home?

2:07:47 > 2:07:49What for?

2:07:49 > 2:07:52I've come to see what mischief that Cora's done

2:07:52 > 2:07:53while I ain't been here.

2:07:53 > 2:07:55You should be taking it easy, Dot.

2:07:55 > 2:07:58You sound like that grandson of mine.

2:07:58 > 2:08:01It's just because we care.

2:08:01 > 2:08:03Oh - I forgot to thank you.

2:08:05 > 2:08:06For what?

2:08:06 > 2:08:08For that nice reading you did yesterday.

2:08:11 > 2:08:16What's the matter? Is it something what Ian has done?

2:08:19 > 2:08:20He kissed me.

2:08:20 > 2:08:25Ooh. Oh, dear. Ain't he supposed to be engaged to Denise?

2:08:25 > 2:08:26I know!

2:08:27 > 2:08:29It's all my fault.

2:08:29 > 2:08:33I honestly thought we could work together as friends.

2:08:33 > 2:08:35I've been stupid.

2:08:35 > 2:08:39You ain't stupid. You've got more between your ears than all them

2:08:39 > 2:08:41wives of his put together.

2:08:41 > 2:08:45I'm sick of people trying to take advantage of me, Dot.

2:08:45 > 2:08:50Yes. Well, you go on and you show him who's in charge.

2:08:52 > 2:08:55Go on. Go and tell him.

2:08:59 > 2:09:00Thank you, Dot.

2:09:11 > 2:09:14- It looks good. - I know. Not that it matters now.

2:09:15 > 2:09:20How do you get your parents to take you seriously?

2:09:23 > 2:09:25Where've you been?

2:09:25 > 2:09:27Look in there.

2:09:31 > 2:09:34Your dad just gave it to me.

2:09:34 > 2:09:38- How?- Well, he saw my figures and didn't want to miss out on a good thing.

2:09:42 > 2:09:45I can't believe he's done this for me.

2:09:45 > 2:09:47This is really going to happen, isn't it?

2:09:47 > 2:09:51LB Lettings is officially in business!

2:09:51 > 2:09:53Here, Luce - I thought you said you made this?

2:09:53 > 2:09:54Yeah, I did.

2:09:54 > 2:09:56Right, then why does it say "Web design by Jake Stone"

2:09:56 > 2:09:58at the bottom, then?

2:09:58 > 2:10:01He was just giving me a helping hand.

2:10:01 > 2:10:05Yeah, I bet he was. I quit.

2:10:09 > 2:10:10What?

2:10:17 > 2:10:19Here we go, here we go. Oi, oi, oi, oi!

2:10:19 > 2:10:20Happy birthday!

2:10:23 > 2:10:26- The Vic?- Yeah.- Oh, well, you've really pushed the boat out, then?

2:10:26 > 2:10:29- And where is everybody, anyway? - They're all on their way.

2:10:29 > 2:10:30Don't worry about it.

2:10:30 > 2:10:32Trust me, no-one throws a party like us.

2:10:32 > 2:10:36- It's going to be great! Don't worry. - Go on, get yourself in that VIP area over there.

2:10:36 > 2:10:37Go on. Oi, oi.

2:10:40 > 2:10:41We might only need 20 of those.

2:10:41 > 2:10:45Because if we do the pictures, it's going to reduce the number of...

2:10:45 > 2:10:47I wasn't sure if you were coming back, so we just got started.

2:10:47 > 2:10:50Hello. I've sketched out some brand-new designs.

2:10:50 > 2:10:54We don't want to keep falling back on the same old cliches, do we, Ian?

2:11:12 > 2:11:13No, wait!

2:11:13 > 2:11:16I didn't go near Jake. I swear nothing happened.

2:11:16 > 2:11:18He was just helping me with the website.

2:11:18 > 2:11:21So why did you lie to me about it, then?

2:11:21 > 2:11:26Because I knew you wouldn't like it. No more secrets.

2:11:26 > 2:11:29This is never going to work if we don't trust each other.

2:11:31 > 2:11:32Partners?

2:11:34 > 2:11:36I know we've had our ups and downs,

2:11:36 > 2:11:39- but it's going to be different this time.- Do you promise?

2:11:39 > 2:11:41Cross my heart and hope to die.

2:11:43 > 2:11:45- Yeah. All right. Partners.- Cool.

2:11:45 > 2:11:48So, why don't we go out next week and celebrate your birthday

2:11:48 > 2:11:51and the launch of our new business?

2:11:51 > 2:11:53Yeah, OK. You're buying, though.

2:11:53 > 2:11:54No. Your dad is!

2:11:54 > 2:11:57TEXT ALERT

2:12:02 > 2:12:03Thank you, we'll be in touch.

2:12:08 > 2:12:10That went very well.

2:12:10 > 2:12:14You certainly know how to get your point across.

2:12:14 > 2:12:16Listen, about earlier...

2:12:16 > 2:12:19All that, us, is in the past.

2:12:19 > 2:12:21We are just business partners, clear?

2:12:21 > 2:12:23Crystal.

2:12:23 > 2:12:24Forget it ever happened.

2:12:24 > 2:12:25Forget what happened?

2:12:34 > 2:12:37You see, now this is more like it!

2:12:37 > 2:12:40All right, it's not a complete disaster anyway.

2:12:40 > 2:12:43Can't believe my sister's turning 36.

2:12:43 > 2:12:46Yeah, and what have I got to show for it, eh?

2:12:46 > 2:12:48The best sister in the world? A beautiful daughter?

2:12:48 > 2:12:50All right! All right!

2:12:50 > 2:12:54But is, you know, a tall, handsome stranger too much to ask for?

2:12:54 > 2:12:56You'll find someone, I promise you.

2:12:58 > 2:13:00Here's to a new start.

2:13:00 > 2:13:02To a new start.

2:13:05 > 2:13:06Time for a refill!

2:13:15 > 2:13:16What can I get the birthday girl?

2:13:16 > 2:13:19Oh, um... Bottle of champagne, please?

2:13:19 > 2:13:21Vodka and coke?

2:13:21 > 2:13:23Right, that'll be a no.

2:13:23 > 2:13:24- Who's next?- Can I get...

2:13:24 > 2:13:26A bottle of champagne.

2:13:26 > 2:13:27And two glasses.

2:13:36 > 2:13:37I've already said I'm sorry.

2:13:38 > 2:13:41Just call me back when you get this, OK?

2:13:46 > 2:13:48What's the matter?

2:13:48 > 2:13:50Tosh won't answer my calls.

2:13:50 > 2:13:52She's probably too busy chatting some girl up.

2:13:52 > 2:13:54Well, do yourself a favour.

2:13:54 > 2:13:57Go upstairs, put some slap on that beautiful boat and go and find her.

2:13:57 > 2:14:00Remind her what's she's got. Go on, get out of it.

2:14:06 > 2:14:09You know what we should have in this place? A pool table.

2:14:09 > 2:14:10You don't like pool.

2:14:10 > 2:14:13You do.

2:14:13 > 2:14:18And if I feel left out, I could always hold your cue.

2:14:18 > 2:14:19Really?

2:14:19 > 2:14:21Sorry for hassling you about your dad.

2:14:21 > 2:14:25- You know, I ain't worried about him. I'm worried about you.- Me?

2:14:25 > 2:14:28You might act like you don't give a damn, Mick Carter, but I know you.

2:14:28 > 2:14:31Unless you find out if Stan's OK,

2:14:31 > 2:14:33you won't be able to live with yourself.

2:14:33 > 2:14:37You know why? Because you're a better man than he is.

2:14:37 > 2:14:41Tina will batter me if she finds out I've left him in the lurch.

2:14:41 > 2:14:43So you'll go and see him?

2:14:43 > 2:14:47Yes, I'll go. You win!

2:14:47 > 2:14:51I'm only going to go and check on him. I can't do all this small-talk.

2:14:51 > 2:14:53I told you you're an old softy.

2:14:58 > 2:15:00Go on, then.

2:15:00 > 2:15:02What, now? No, I was going to go in the morning.

2:15:02 > 2:15:04No time like the present.

2:15:07 > 2:15:08All right.

2:15:18 > 2:15:21I can't tell you. Not until I've spoken to Mum.

2:15:21 > 2:15:24He's got something he wants to say.

2:15:24 > 2:15:25Spit it out.

2:15:25 > 2:15:28Right, look, I went to see Sharon earlier.

2:15:28 > 2:15:30I've got a new job. At The Albert.

2:15:30 > 2:15:31You what?

2:15:31 > 2:15:33That's my boy! I'm proud of you.

2:15:33 > 2:15:35You sure about this?

2:15:35 > 2:15:38Can someone tell me what's going on here?

2:15:38 > 2:15:40If The Albert's our competitor,

2:16:22 > 2:16:26- Did he sweep you off your feet? - Yes, something like that, all right.

2:16:26 > 2:16:29I'm sorry I was such a miserable cow earlier.

2:16:29 > 2:16:32And thank you for dropping all that Stacey stuff.

2:16:46 > 2:16:47Thanks again for your help.

2:16:49 > 2:16:52I can't wait to see you.

2:17:21 > 2:17:23Uh!
