Max, Max.

0:00:240:00:26

-Well, ain't he coming now?

-Course he's coming!

0:00:300:00:33

Jack, can I have a word?

0:00:360:00:39

Er, not now, Dot. We got a bit of family crisis on our hands.

0:00:390:00:43

She's upstairs. In the bathroom.

0:00:450:00:48

Go up.

0:00:480:00:50

Don't just stand there.

0:00:500:00:53

Do you really think this is a good idea?

0:01:000:01:03

MAX KNOCKS ON DOOR

0:01:040:01:05

Tan, it's me, it's Max.

0:01:080:01:10

Tan, can you open the door, please?

0:01:120:01:14

If you don't open this door, I'll kick it down. I mean it.

0:01:180:01:20

Tan!

0:01:200:01:21

-Tan. Tan, what have you done?

-Get off me!

-Babe, have you taken these?

0:01:320:01:37

-Have you taken these?

-Why can't you just leave me alone? Get off me!

0:01:370:01:40

Make yourself sick. Make yourself sick!

0:01:400:01:42

-I haven't swallowed them!

-Dad!

0:01:420:01:43

It's all in hand. Just go downstairs, please.

0:01:470:01:49

What's happening? What did he say?

0:01:540:01:56

-He... He just told me to come down.

-Let's all go and sit in here.

0:01:560:02:02

Yeah, come on, Carol's right.

0:02:020:02:04

I thought everything was fine. Tanya, she's always been, you know, so capable. Such a good mother.

0:02:060:02:12

-Yeah, did for my mother, that.

-What?

0:02:120:02:15

-(MOUTHS) Cancer.

-Oh.

-She was a smoker too.

0:02:150:02:19

-Oh, I'm Derek, by the way.

-Derek who?

-Derek Branning.

0:02:190:02:23

You must be Jim's eldest boy. How do you do? Let me introduce myself.

0:02:230:02:27

My name is Dorothy.

0:02:270:02:28

-I'm your stepmother.

-Well, I'm charmed.

-Thank you.

0:02:280:02:32

Oh, allow me.

0:02:340:02:36

Oh, thank you.

0:02:370:02:39

Lauren says you're sick.

0:02:410:02:42

Says you got cancer.

0:02:460:02:48

-I don't wish to talk about it.

-Is she right? Is it true?

0:02:480:02:51

-What do you care?

-Have you got?

-Yes. I'm riddled with it.

0:02:510:02:54

-I'm serious.

-So am I. So am I.

0:02:540:02:56

It's like a little monster inside me. Just growing and spreading.

0:02:590:03:04

Yeah, but you been to the doctor, ain't you?

0:03:040:03:06

You been to hospital? Cos Lauren said you've been having treatment.

0:03:060:03:08

What do you want from me?

0:03:120:03:13

Lauren's crying her eyes out, begging me to come sort you out.

0:03:130:03:16

-Look at you. You're a mess!

-You're helping, are you?

0:03:160:03:19

This ain't you, Tan. I just want...

0:03:210:03:24

-..want you to...

-What?

0:03:240:03:27

For me to be well? Cos I'm not. I'm not well.

0:03:270:03:29

I've got cancer.

0:03:290:03:30

Just like my dad. There you go, I said it.

0:03:300:03:32

There you go, I've got cancer. Cancer. Cancer. You happy now?

0:03:320:03:36

I've accepted it. I am sick. Well done. Job done.

0:03:360:03:39

You got through to me.

0:03:390:03:40

-What type?

-Cervical. Cervical cancer.

0:03:450:03:48

They can sort that one out, can't they?

0:03:480:03:51

Just cos they've got doctors and hospitals and drugs and things don't mean they can cure it.

0:03:530:03:57

Just cos you see a doctor or get on a list, it doesn't guarantee anything.

0:03:580:04:03

Has it advanced?

0:04:030:04:04

Not getting any better.

0:04:070:04:10

Then how come you ain't getting treatment?!

0:04:100:04:12

-Because I decided against it.

-Why would you do that?

0:04:120:04:15

I just did. End of interrogation. End of conversation.

0:04:150:04:18

-Where you going?

-Why won't you leave me alone?! Who are you, anyway?

0:04:180:04:21

You're not my husband.

0:04:210:04:24

You're nothing. You are just someone who used to be in my life.

0:04:240:04:28

-And I'd like you to leave now.

-Where are you going, Tan?

0:04:280:04:31

Away from you, is that all right?

0:04:310:04:33

SHE PANTS

0:04:360:04:37

Why can't you just leave me alone? Why won't you just go away?

0:04:430:04:47

So how long you had it?

0:04:480:04:50

I don't know. A few months.

0:04:530:04:55

-A few months?

-Yes, about that.

0:04:570:05:00

-What, so you knew before I left?

-Um, no I don't think so.

0:05:030:05:07

Is that it? What? You knew and you didn't say anything?

0:05:070:05:11

What would you have done, Max? What?

0:05:110:05:13

Stuck around? Is that it? Been a good and loyal friend?

0:05:130:05:16

Is that why you just changed your mind about us? That night?

0:05:160:05:19

-Is that why you told me it was over?

-No.

0:05:190:05:21

-You said you'd been at the doctors with Oscar.

-I don't want to talk about this.

-Is that what happened?

0:05:230:05:28

What, so you found out then you just broke it off with me?

0:05:300:05:33

What difference does it make?

0:05:370:05:39

Why didn't you just tell me?

0:05:510:05:53

Cos I didn't want you around.

0:05:550:05:58

I didn't want to break up with Greg, and move in with you and have you lumbered with a dying woman.

0:06:030:06:07

-You've got a disease. Don't mean you're dying.

-Sick, all right. A sick woman, a sick woman.

0:06:070:06:12

I been around it, Max. I've seen what's it like.

0:06:120:06:15

A disease doesn't just destroy the body,

0:06:170:06:20

it rots a marriage as well.

0:06:200:06:22

It takes all that love and it turns it into politeness and resentment.

0:06:220:06:30

I've seen it. I've seen it with my mum and dad.

0:06:300:06:33

So you think I would have just run off and abandoned you?

0:06:340:06:37

No. I think you would have stuck it out. But I would have known, Max.

0:06:370:06:41

I'd have seen it in your eyes, that look. You'd have smiled at me, have driven me to the hospital,

0:06:410:06:46

and inside you'd have been going, "What have I done?"

0:06:460:06:48

"One minute I'm romping round the bedroom with my ex,

0:06:480:06:51

"the next I'm lumbered with this diseased old cow." And then...

0:06:510:06:56

Then you'd have started looking around, wouldn't you?

0:06:560:06:59

Thinking about someone else.

0:06:590:07:01

You wouldn't have wanted me.

0:07:010:07:03

I was willing to throw everything up in the air again, take a risk.

0:07:050:07:10

All I wanted was to be with you.

0:07:100:07:12

Even if you'd ended up with an invalid on your hands?

0:07:140:07:18

-You wouldn't have been disgusted?

-Of course I wouldn't.

0:07:180:07:22

It takes months, a year, sometimes longer to go through treatment.

0:07:320:07:38

There's chemo, radiotherapy, and there are side effects.

0:07:400:07:44

I mean, you get to look like this.

0:07:440:07:49

You get to be scared and weepy,

0:07:490:07:53

and there's this horrible regime of drugs and you feel sick, you look sick, and exhausted,

0:07:530:08:00

and it's on your mind the whole time.

0:08:000:08:03

Even if you forget it, just for a minute, it's there, waiting to come back at you.

0:08:050:08:09

You go to bed at night, you're not thinking, "Oh, what shall I wear,

0:08:110:08:15

"That nice negligee that gets hubby excited?"

0:08:150:08:17

You're in your big thick pyjamas.

0:08:180:08:20

D'you want that?

0:08:220:08:24

D'you think you could love that?

0:08:250:08:27

Yeah.

0:08:290:08:30

You know, at least I would've liked to have been given a chance.

0:08:330:08:37

That's a chance I couldn't take, Max.

0:08:390:08:42

You're not a tender man, Max, you're not. You're not kind.

0:08:490:08:52

You're not the type of person that's like...

0:08:540:08:57

That's kind and patient and loving and who'd just be there

0:08:570:09:01

-with nothing but love in his heart. You're not.

-I've changed, ain't I?

0:09:010:09:04

-Everything that's happened, it's changed me.

-Yeah, right.

0:09:040:09:08

Three kids together. You don't think that means anything to me?

0:09:080:09:13

You don't think you should have taken a risk? Given me a chance?

0:09:130:09:17

No.

0:09:170:09:18

-You don't want to be vulnerable? It's selfish.

-Selfish?

0:09:190:09:22

You got three kids and people that love you.

0:09:220:09:24

Don't you think you should let them help?

0:09:240:09:27

And burden them, burden them all? No! What good would that do?

0:09:270:09:31

Who's that going to help, Max? Not them.

0:09:310:09:34

I know how it feels. I know what it does to you. And I won't have that for my kids.

0:09:340:09:40

I don't want that for anyone I love.

0:09:420:09:44

So you do love me?

0:09:490:09:51

This isn't about you, Max. This is about what happened to me. My dad.

0:09:540:09:59

This is what I...

0:09:590:10:01

-It's about what I did.

-You were Florence Nightingale. You did your best.

0:10:010:10:04

Babe, him dying weren't your fault.

0:10:060:10:10

What, you think it was?

0:10:100:10:12

She knows.

0:10:150:10:17

She knows what I did, don't you? She's going to make me pay for it.

0:10:190:10:23

Cora, please... just tell me what she's talking about?

0:10:250:10:29

I killed my dad. I helped him to die.

0:10:340:10:38

Max, I'd like a moment alone with my daughter. If you don't mind?

0:10:420:10:46

Yeah, I don't know. I don't know, Cora.

0:10:510:10:52

-I don't think that's a very good idea.

-Go on.

0:10:520:10:55

Nothing bad's going to happen. I promise.

0:10:570:10:59

Ain't you even going to look at me?

0:11:100:11:12

Is she OK?

0:11:210:11:22

Yeah.

0:11:240:11:25

-Yeah, I don't know, Lauren. Yeah, I think she is, yeah.

-Should we go up?

0:11:260:11:32

Don't go up, Abi, she's talking to your nan.

0:11:320:11:34

I'm glad you're back.

0:11:370:11:38

Are you?

0:11:440:11:45

Abi?

0:11:490:11:50

Girls, I'm sorry. Come here. Come here. Come on. I love ya.

0:11:530:11:57

-Why would you have done that?

-Cos he was in pain, Mum. He wanted me to.

0:12:010:12:07

-He asked me to.

-He would never have done that. Not William.

0:12:070:12:10

I knew him inside out. He was my husband.

0:12:100:12:13

-Did you really know him that well, Mum? In the end?

-I was there.

0:12:150:12:19

-I was around. You keep telling me I wasn't but I was.

-You weren't there, Mum.

0:12:190:12:23

You were out, you were working, you were out down the club.

0:12:230:12:27

Someone had to bring the money in. He wasn't going to, was he?

0:12:270:12:30

We had to eat. I had to put food on the table.

0:12:300:12:36

-And a bet on the horses.

-I never did that once your dad was ill!

0:12:360:12:42

-We used to find the stubs in the bin, Mum.

-Once or twice, maybe.

0:12:420:12:47

You don't criticise me. Not after what you've done.

0:12:470:12:51

So what? I was still a young woman

0:12:520:12:56

with a sick husband and a coupla kids.

0:12:560:12:58

I was scared out of my mind. A coupla drinks. The odd punt.

0:12:590:13:05

It got me through.

0:13:050:13:06

He didn't blame you.

0:13:090:13:10

He didn't.

0:13:120:13:13

My dad, he was the sweetest, kindest man that ever lived.

0:13:160:13:21

Used to make me feel like the most precious thing.

0:13:230:13:27

When he was dying I tried to make him feel the same. But it didn't work.

0:13:270:13:31

Being ill, Mum, it's hard.

0:13:350:13:37

It's gruelling, it's painful, and it's there all day, all night.

0:13:390:13:45

That's what I learnt.

0:13:460:13:48

Them long nights.

0:13:500:13:51

That's where I learnt what life was really about, Mum. By his bedside.

0:13:530:13:57

So you topped your father, then you lied to everyone when you got ill. That what you learnt?

0:13:570:14:04

I didn't "top" him, Mum!

0:14:050:14:07

Then what did you do? Tell me. I think I've got a right to know.

0:14:070:14:12

You were out.

0:14:170:14:19

He'd done this little drawing for you, you know, like he used to,

0:14:190:14:23

of the view from his window, on a little card.

0:14:230:14:26

Then he put it on the window sill and I seen it and picked it up and looked at it and...

0:14:270:14:33

He'd written in it...

0:14:360:14:37

He'd written, 'Thanks for being such a lovely wife'.

0:14:400:14:44

And that's when he asked me to do it. He asked me to help him end it.

0:14:510:14:56

Put him out of his misery.

0:14:560:14:57

-And you just said yes?

-Of course not.

0:14:590:15:02

I fought with him and I begged him.

0:15:030:15:06

But he was just so sweet.

0:15:080:15:10

Cos he wasn't scared or angry. He was just...

0:15:100:15:15

..wrung dry, Mum.

0:15:180:15:22

So I got on the bed and we had a cuddle and, um...

0:15:260:15:30

He just held me like he used to when I was little.

0:15:300:15:33

But I could feel him, Mum. I could feel his arms and his ribs.

0:15:360:15:40

He was stick thin, weren't he?

0:15:400:15:42

He weren't like a man, it was...

0:15:450:15:48

There was hardly nothing left of him.

0:15:480:15:51

And I remember he put his arm round me

0:15:510:15:53

and I could see this vein in his wrist, just pulsing.

0:15:530:15:59

This bluey green vein and his white skin. It was just...

0:16:000:16:04

..like it was almost too much effort to pump the blood round.

0:16:060:16:10

Then I looked in his face and he didn't look scared.

0:16:150:16:19

Just had these kind eyes.

0:16:210:16:22

And I said I'd do it. I said I'd help him.

0:16:240:16:28

So I, uh... I put a pillow under his head,

0:16:330:16:39

and I made sure he was comfy and...

0:16:390:16:40

I gave him a little kiss on the cheek.

0:16:430:16:45

Then I gave him the drugs.

0:16:460:16:49

I did.

0:16:490:16:50

Way more than he should have had.

0:16:520:16:54

And, uh...

0:17:070:17:08

It was like nothing had happened.

0:17:090:17:13

I remember the lights.

0:17:150:17:17

I could see the lights from the flats opposite, just glittering.

0:17:180:17:23

And I sat there for hours, just holding his hand.

0:17:240:17:27

Then I fell asleep and...

0:17:330:17:36

..when I woke up, he'd gone.

0:17:380:17:40

What happened to the card?

0:17:440:17:46

I suddenly feel very old.

0:18:280:18:31

Very, very old.

0:18:330:18:34

I'm sorry, Mum.

0:18:380:18:40

No. No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for being who I am.

0:18:400:18:45

Must've been a terrible burden for you, having me as a mother.

0:18:470:18:52

-He loved you. Right till the end.

-And I loved him in my own way.

0:18:540:19:01

I never loved anyone like I loved him.

0:19:010:19:05

And he DID love me.

0:19:080:19:11

He loved me for exactly who I was.

0:19:140:19:18

Never any criticism.

0:19:210:19:23

You couldn't make him up, your Dad.

0:19:250:19:27

He never said a cruel word.

0:19:300:19:32

Look at you.

0:19:370:19:40

A mother and a wife. With all this.

0:19:400:19:45

Look what you've become.

0:19:460:19:48

-Even lumbered with me, you're still a success.

-I'm not a success, Mum.

0:19:480:19:54

Course you are. Three kids. A man who loves you.

0:19:540:19:57

No, there's no man. I messed that up years ago.

0:19:570:20:01

Make no mistake. Max loves you.

0:20:010:20:04

He loves you right down to his fingernails.

0:20:040:20:08

For all his faults, he's the one for you.

0:20:080:20:10

And if you want, he'll be there for you.

0:20:100:20:13

Look, what we talked about.

0:20:170:20:18

You don't mention it to anyone.

0:20:180:20:21

Put this away.

0:20:250:20:27

For safekeeping. I might like to look at it now and again.

0:20:270:20:30

I'll handle Rainie.

0:20:350:20:37

Where are you going, Mum?

0:20:390:20:40

Downstairs.

0:20:400:20:42

Come on, get up.

0:20:420:20:43

Straighten up.

0:20:460:20:47

Chin up.

0:20:490:20:51

Look at you.

0:20:530:20:54

Look at you.

0:21:000:21:01

Look how beautiful you are.

0:21:030:21:04

Your got your Dad's eyes, girl.

0:21:060:21:08

He would've been proud of you.

0:21:090:21:11

He would.

0:21:110:21:13

As long as you do one thing.

0:21:130:21:14

-What's that?

-You fight this.

0:21:170:21:18

You go back to the hospital.

0:21:180:21:21

For your kids.

0:21:210:21:22

For me.

0:21:220:21:23

For yourself.

0:21:230:21:25

Will you do that?

0:21:250:21:28

Yeah, she's gonna do that, Cora.

0:21:280:21:30

I'm gonna make sure of it.

0:21:330:21:35

Listen to this man.

0:21:350:21:37

He knows what he's talking about.

0:21:370:21:39

Me and him.

0:21:390:21:41

We ain't leaving you for a minute, not till you're well,

0:21:410:21:46

up and about, giving us orders, telling me where to bin me fags.

0:21:460:21:51

Understand?

0:21:520:21:54

I ain't gonna lose you an' all.

0:21:570:21:59

Don't let me down, Max.

0:22:040:22:06

I'm relying on you.

0:22:060:22:07

-Well?

-The girl needs to rest. We can talk to her tomorrow.

0:22:180:22:22

What about what she said?

0:22:220:22:24

You don't mention that to anyone. You hear me? It never happened.

0:22:240:22:28

But...

0:22:280:22:29

Shhh. I need a cigarette.

0:22:290:22:32

Nothing like a crisis to bring a family together, eh?

0:22:430:22:46

Yeah.

0:22:460:22:48

You know, I often think about our dalliance at Tanya's wedding.

0:22:500:22:54

How sweet that was.

0:22:540:22:57

I don't remember.

0:22:590:23:00

About time.

0:23:190:23:20

Right, now, take this.

0:23:220:23:25

Now, there's a bus station round the corner.

0:23:260:23:30

Go back to Leyton.

0:23:300:23:32

I thought we were going to Manchester.

0:23:320:23:34

Well, you thought wrong, didn't ya? Go on, on your way.

0:23:340:23:38

Move!

0:23:380:23:39

Derek.

0:23:420:23:44

What you doing? You going?

0:23:440:23:47

No. What gave you that idea?

0:23:470:23:49

I ain't going nowhere. Not till Max is sorted.

0:23:490:23:52

I got a responsibility, as the eldest.

0:23:520:23:54

Now we have gotta pull together and get our boy through this.

0:23:560:23:59

All together. Like a proper family.

0:23:590:24:01

The Brannings, together again at last, eh?

0:24:020:24:05

Yes? Yes? Come here.

0:24:050:24:08

It'll be like old times.

0:24:080:24:09

You OK?

0:24:180:24:19

What I said about my Dad...

0:24:220:24:24

Nah, it'll keep.

0:24:250:24:27

We'll talk about it tomorrow.

0:24:270:24:29

-Tomorrow?

-Yeah. Or the day after that.

0:24:290:24:32

-What d'you mean?

-Well, it's like Cora says. I'm sticking around.

0:24:320:24:36

And you, madam, you're gonna go back to the hospital.

0:24:380:24:42

We're gonna get you well.

0:24:430:24:45

What about your friend? The blonde?

0:24:490:24:52

That's not my friend.

0:24:530:24:55

It's Derek's.

0:24:550:24:57

I ain't been near another woman.

0:24:590:25:01

Don't feel sorry for me, Max.

0:25:010:25:04

I don't.

0:25:060:25:08

I love you, Tanya.

0:25:180:25:19

I do, I love you.

0:25:220:25:23

Just like I always have.

0:25:230:25:24

If you'd told me, I never would have gone away.

0:25:260:25:29

I would have stuck by your side every minute of the day.

0:25:310:25:35

Out of duty?

0:25:350:25:37

Out of love.

0:25:370:25:38

You are as beautiful to me now as you ever have been.

0:25:460:25:50

-What, you don't you believe me?

-No.

0:25:540:25:56

I'm just so tired.

0:25:590:26:01

Well, lie down.

0:26:040:26:06

Go on. Just lie down.

0:26:080:26:09

What are you doing?

0:26:280:26:31

I'm lying down.

0:26:310:26:33

In my bed.

0:26:350:26:36

Next to my wife.

0:26:380:26:39

-I'm not your wife, though.

-Well, you are in here.

0:26:430:26:46

You never stopped being my wife.

0:26:480:26:50

Not for a minute.

0:26:500:26:51

Feels right, don't it?

0:26:560:26:57

Just you and me.

0:26:590:27:01

Why don't you lean on me?

0:27:040:27:07

Go on, lean on me. Go on. It's not that difficult.

0:27:070:27:09

How does that feel?

0:27:180:27:20

It's all right.

0:27:210:27:23

It's nice.

0:27:250:27:26

Feels good, don't it?

0:27:280:27:31

Feels good.

0:27:310:27:32

I ain't leaving you, ever.

0:27:350:27:37

Do you understand?

0:27:390:27:41

Even if you ask me to.

0:27:410:27:43

Then I won't ask.

0:27:470:27:49

What's that?

0:28:100:28:12

It's my wedding ring.

0:28:120:28:14

Never could bring myself to throw it away.

0:28:140:28:17

Don't look bad, does it?

0:28:200:28:22

Looks perfect.

0:28:240:28:25

Go to sleep, Tan.

0:28:290:28:30

I'm gonna hold you all night.

0:28:320:28:35

Everything's gonna be all right.

0:28:350:28:38

Is it?

0:28:390:28:41

Yeah, course.
