0:00:47 > 0:00:48Derek, I told you, mate,
0:00:48 > 0:00:50I can't take no more at the Vic, all right?
0:00:50 > 0:00:52Nah, this is different.
0:00:52 > 0:00:53Bigger.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55A proper job.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58You do still need cash, don't you, Alfie?
0:00:58 > 0:01:01Cup of coffee please, darling.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08Sorry. Maybe next time.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Well, it's your decision. Oh, Alfie.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15- Poker.- Do what?! - I thought you might want a rematch.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17You do still play cards, don't you?
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Course I do. Just say when and where.
0:01:19 > 0:01:20Basher's, 7.30.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Tonight?!
0:01:23 > 0:01:25OK, let me have a chat with Jean,
0:01:25 > 0:01:27see if she can take care of Shenice, all right?
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Good. I'll get my brothers together.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32You bring your cousin, make up the numbers.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Sorry, I thought I told you it was book club.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Yeah, I just didn't realise it was tonight, that's all.
0:01:46 > 0:01:47I was going to cook us a dinner
0:01:47 > 0:01:49and Abi was going to take Oscar out.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51We was going to have the whole place to ourselves.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53I can't really back out now.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56- MAX SIGHS - Well, we'll do it another time.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Well, I suppose this means you want me out from under your feet, is it?
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Women only, yeah?
0:02:01 > 0:02:04It's all right, there's a car auction.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06I'll go to that.
0:02:06 > 0:02:07- Lovely idea, Max.- Yeah.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11I thought you loved poker.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13I do, but not as much as I love my arms and legs.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15Which I won't have much longer
0:02:15 > 0:02:17if I keep dipping into Phil's rent, will I?
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Granddad, you will be fine, all right?
0:02:19 > 0:02:22A bit of blag, a bit of charm - it's what you do best, ain't it, eh?
0:02:22 > 0:02:23You can't lose.
0:02:23 > 0:02:27Come on, you going to Tan's book club tonight or what?
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Who says I've been invited?
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Anyway - bothered? Not my thing. Move your foot, please.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34They won't mind you pitching in, darling.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36It'll be fine, Jean can take care of Amy.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38I bet it hasn't been a barrel of laughs round your place lately.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40No, that's an understatement.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44Nah, me and Tanya, we're not exactly bosom buddies, you know?
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Rox, just put out the hand of friendship like that.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Weren't you always telling me
0:02:49 > 0:02:52that you and Ronnie were the social lifeblood of the Square?
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Nah, you know what, even if I fancied it,
0:02:55 > 0:02:56let me tell you something.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58The last book I read was probably...
0:02:58 > 0:03:02- the photo stories in... the My Guy annual, 1988.- No!
0:03:02 > 0:03:03I remember them!
0:03:03 > 0:03:04You've just got to blag it.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08Go on one of these online book stores, check out the reviews. Come on, job done.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Come on, Cinders, keep sweeping.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16I do hope Tanya's not going to make those awful vol-au-vents.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19They're not a patch on my samosas.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21- I'll put the kettle on.- Yes.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Wicked Witch of the West ain't about, is she?
0:03:28 > 0:03:31If you are referring to my friend and colleague Denise, she's busy.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34Good. Can I get a bottle of scotch, please?
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Unless I take my money elsewhere?
0:03:41 > 0:03:42Oi!
0:03:42 > 0:03:44What you doing? He's barred!
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Come on, isn't this a little bit childish now?
0:03:47 > 0:03:48- He started it!- No, you did,
0:03:48 > 0:03:50when you stole my builder.
0:03:50 > 0:03:51Give us the scotch. Here you are.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Thank you, Zainab.
0:03:56 > 0:03:57Oh, that man...
0:03:57 > 0:03:59He's asking for a slap!
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- Count me out. Getting fleeced by the Brannings ain't my idea of fun.- Oh...
0:04:05 > 0:04:09You got better things at home to do with the missus, eh? Good lad.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12Oh, don't tell me, trouble in paradise again, is there?
0:04:12 > 0:04:14No, it's, erm...
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Have you had times, you know, with you and Kat, when, erm...
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Me and Kat what?
0:04:19 > 0:04:22I'll tell you what, it's like you've got a new car,
0:04:22 > 0:04:23but the engine won't rev.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Ian, what you talking about? New car?
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Never mind, don't worry.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29- Hiya.- All right, love? - Hello, sweetheart.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31You left early today.
0:04:31 > 0:04:32Yeah, got a lot to do.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34With the stall, and running the caff and stuff.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38Right. Well, look, I thought, what with Bobby and Lucy out,
0:04:38 > 0:04:41maybe tonight we could snuggle up with a DVD.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44Little glass of wine, relax...
0:04:44 > 0:04:48Look, I'd love to, but I've got to dash, all right?
0:04:48 > 0:04:52I promised Alfie and the lads I'd play cards tonight.
0:04:52 > 0:04:53It's not really my bag.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55And you agreed to this because?
0:04:55 > 0:04:56Cos I needed the brownie points.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58And I told Derek I was going to ask you.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02- If you don't come, you'll look like a wuss, so it's up to you. - Thank you, cousin, very thoughtful.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06All right, Phil? What can I do for you?
0:05:06 > 0:05:09You and Derek looked very cosy in the caff earlier.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Listen, you don't need to worry about that.
0:05:12 > 0:05:13All the stuff that was out the back,
0:05:13 > 0:05:16he's cleared it all out.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18- Check it if you like. - I think I'll do that.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21You going to this game later?
0:05:21 > 0:05:24What you on about?
0:05:24 > 0:05:25This poker game at Basher's.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27I thought you knew. Derek set it up.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Good. Come on, then, if you're going.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Ooh, you've changed your tune, have you?
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Yeah.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41Should be a laugh.
0:06:02 > 0:06:03- All right?- Hi.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- Mind if I sit down? - No, go on.- Cheers.
0:06:09 > 0:06:13So, you not been invited to book club either?
0:06:13 > 0:06:16Oh! Is that where they're all going?
0:06:16 > 0:06:19- Yep.- Oh. Sounds tragic.- You know it.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Oh, cheers.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Sorry, I've got to...wipe it.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26MANDY GIGGLES
0:06:27 > 0:06:30You know what, me and my sister used to do this before we went out.
0:06:30 > 0:06:34What, get tanked up before you hit the clubs? Been there.
0:06:34 > 0:06:35You know what, though?
0:06:35 > 0:06:38It was kind of, like, our way of kicking off the evening.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Not the highlight of the night, but...
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Oh, wow.
0:06:42 > 0:06:43Are we the tragic ones?
0:06:45 > 0:06:49Well, there's only one way to find out.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51We should've brought a bottle.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54Would you rather shell out on these or on food for the kids?
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Anyway, they don't notice.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58- Oh, cheers, Tanya.- Thanks, Tan.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Where you sneaking off to?
0:07:02 > 0:07:04The Vic...for wine.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Well, I'm sure Tanya's got a vat of it in the kitchen.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10This wouldn't be about a certain someone who works there, would it?
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Ray?
0:07:14 > 0:07:19Fine. Just don't blame me when we run out of booze, yeah?
0:07:23 > 0:07:26I don't know why I let you talk me into coming here.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29I mean, I only read the bible nowadays.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Modern books are full of fornication and violence.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34I mean, there's enough in the world as it is.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Ain't about the books, though, is it?
0:07:36 > 0:07:39It's about neighbours getting together to break bread
0:07:39 > 0:07:41and support each other.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44You don't have to go to church for that, Dot.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Cora, it ain't the same at all.
0:07:46 > 0:07:50Do you know what? I love what you've done with this room, Tan.
0:07:50 > 0:07:51Oh, thank you.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54It's much more modern than what other people do round here.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Didn't you ask Shirley to come, then?
0:07:56 > 0:07:59It didn't seem right after how she reacted last week in the Vic.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Can you blame her for being so upset,
0:08:01 > 0:08:03with her best friend's killer walking around the Square,
0:08:03 > 0:08:05bold as brass?
0:08:05 > 0:08:07We don't know that yet, do we?
0:08:07 > 0:08:09Who else could it be, though, really?
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Sorry, Dot, didn't mean to upset you.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15- Right, so shall I put some music on? - Yes. Good idea. It's over there.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Could we make a start, please?
0:08:17 > 0:08:20Because I went down to the library
0:08:20 > 0:08:21and picked up some potential choices.
0:08:21 > 0:08:25I thought you said we wouldn't have to talk about any books?
0:08:25 > 0:08:27And seeing as we haven't done many classics,
0:08:27 > 0:08:29I thought how about a Bronte sister?
0:08:29 > 0:08:33Oh, Zainab, bore-off!
0:08:34 > 0:08:37Excuse me, who invited you two?
0:08:37 > 0:08:40Well, the door was on the latch so we thought it was an open house.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43We didn't come empty-handed.
0:08:43 > 0:08:44What's that?
0:08:44 > 0:08:47Oh, I've actually read this.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49You think it's going to be about some weird medical disorder
0:08:49 > 0:08:54and it actually turns out to be a really good psychological thriller.
0:08:54 > 0:08:55It's quite gripping, actually.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Yes, well, that's very nice.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59But I think we're a bit full up this time round.
0:08:59 > 0:09:00Maybe next time.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03What happened to community spirit?
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Yeah, Dot's right.
0:09:06 > 0:09:07The more the merrier.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09Make yourselves at home, girls.
0:09:09 > 0:09:10Just keep her out of my way.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16OK.
0:09:16 > 0:09:22Let us raise the first glass to Tan.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26Now, Tan, she's had a real battle on her hands these past few months,
0:09:26 > 0:09:31but she's come out even stronger the other side, ain't she?
0:09:31 > 0:09:34It's great to see her back so fighting fit.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Anyway, so here's to Tanya.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38ALL: Tanya!
0:09:41 > 0:09:45No, I'm all right. I like to keep a clear head when I'm playing cards.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Yeah, playing Snap with Bobby don't count, though.
0:09:47 > 0:09:48Come on, don't knock the Beale.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51- Pulled a cracker like Mandy, didn't he?- Fair play to you.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54That's why you've got bags under your eyes, eh?
0:09:54 > 0:09:55Keeping you up at night?
0:09:55 > 0:09:58- Max ain't going to make it back in time.- Let's get started, then.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00Make it a bit more interesting.
0:10:00 > 0:10:05What do you say we play cash-only tonight, if that's OK?
0:10:05 > 0:10:06Right.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09I wouldn't expect anything less.
0:10:09 > 0:10:10And...
0:10:12 > 0:10:15..can't be too careful when there's Moons about, can you, eh?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18- No offence. - Very suspicious mind there, Derek.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20You're not worried about losing, are you?
0:10:20 > 0:10:24- Wouldn't be the first time you played dirty.- Lads, lads, come on. This is fine. It's OK, it's OK.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26DOOR OPENS
0:10:26 > 0:10:27Sorry, mate, we're closed.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35Well, you weren't going to start without me, was you?
0:10:35 > 0:10:36Grab a pew.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Unless there's any objections?
0:10:43 > 0:10:47I thought we were going to play with yours, Derek? No?
0:10:47 > 0:10:48Alfie's the dealer.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50It's his choice.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07This is nice, isn't it?
0:11:08 > 0:11:10You fancied Syed?!
0:11:10 > 0:11:11My Syed?
0:11:11 > 0:11:13Yes, before I realised he was gay, OK!
0:11:13 > 0:11:16He's been out two years - get over it.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19- You know who I think's fit? - Michael Moon?
0:11:19 > 0:11:21You don't fancy Michael Moon?!
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Me? No! I just think he's a bit easy on the eye.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26That why you went out with his dad, to get a bit closer to him? Yeah!
0:11:26 > 0:11:29# Carol and Michael sitting in a tree... #
0:11:29 > 0:11:34All right, all right, all right, can we go back to Tanya? Who is it? Who is it?
0:11:34 > 0:11:35Ray, Morgan's dad. What?
0:11:35 > 0:11:38And he's a chef, ain't he, so he's good with his hands.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Well, Bianca should know.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Well, that was years ago.
0:11:42 > 0:11:43Right, so if it's the chef thing,
0:11:43 > 0:11:47maybe you've got the hots for Ian, too?
0:11:47 > 0:11:50No! Oh, sorry, Mandy.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54Don't be. I know Ian's not an obvious choice but, believe it or not,
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- he's got a lot more going for him than you might think.- Really?
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Yeah, like his bank balance.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02No. He can actually be very sweet and very romantic.
0:12:02 > 0:12:03Ian Beale?
0:12:03 > 0:12:08He can't have been that bad, can he, if Jane was with him all them years.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10So, does anybody else think that Ray's fit?
0:12:10 > 0:12:11I do!
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Oh, Mrs Masmood!
0:12:13 > 0:12:14What? I have eyes!
0:12:14 > 0:12:16- Do you know who I'd pick?- Who?
0:12:19 > 0:12:22- Alfie.- What?
0:12:22 > 0:12:24Don't say anything to Kat, she would scratch me eyes out!
0:12:24 > 0:12:26- Are you serious?- Why not?
0:12:26 > 0:12:29He's a laugh, ain't he, he gets on with everyone,
0:12:29 > 0:12:31and he's got a naughty little twinkle in his eye.
0:12:31 > 0:12:35Actually, now you say it, I could...
0:12:35 > 0:12:36Oh, hands off. You bagsied Ray!
0:12:36 > 0:12:38You can't have all men.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41No, no, no-one bagsied anybody, yeah? That ain't how it works!
0:12:41 > 0:12:44- Anyway, Alfie is just... Alfie. That's it.- Too nice, no edge.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Nothing wrong with a little bit of nice.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50Yeah, edge is over-rated when life throws you a curve-ball.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Believe me.
0:12:52 > 0:12:56Right, so if you could choose one quality, what would it be?
0:12:56 > 0:12:59What's that word when someone's, like, always making an effort,
0:12:59 > 0:13:01and really spoils you?
0:13:01 > 0:13:05- Attentive. But not suffocating. - Yeah. Good with the kids, obviously.
0:13:05 > 0:13:06Sincere.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08Honesty's far better.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12Kind. Never under-estimate kind.
0:13:12 > 0:13:17Faithfulness, like my Jim. Not some fly-by-night.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Makes you think you're the only woman in a packed room.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Someone, yeah, who is on your side,
0:13:23 > 0:13:27who just makes you feel like it's you against the rest of the world.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33- About, that, do you reckon? - Nah. Think big.
0:13:33 > 0:13:37I know what Bealey goes for. Bealey goes for blondes, don't you, eh?
0:13:37 > 0:13:38I'm more of a leg man, myself.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41Nah, I like a nice round rump, like Pippa Middleton.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Yeah, she's the drop for me.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Now, if Janine wears a wedding dress like that, happy days.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Thought it was the bride who talked about the frocks, eh?
0:13:50 > 0:13:54You handling the flowers and the cakes as well, are you(?)
0:13:54 > 0:13:56Actually, there is a real art to a good wedding cake.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59What's happened with your marriage plans, Ian, eh? Got cold feet?
0:13:59 > 0:14:02Wouldn't be surprised. I've met classier alley cats.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04So where's your bird, Derek?
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Decent bird, though, she wants a bit of privacy, Derek.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13Not going to get very far crashing on his couch.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17Well, I'm pickier than most. How's Shirley? Bearing up, is she?
0:14:20 > 0:14:22I came here to play cards, not chat.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Right, we'll let the girls do that.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27Wonder what they chat about at these book clubs anyway.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Mind your own business. Anyway, not as long as Denise here.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Don't turn this around onto me.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Yeah, you can't ask her that, can you? How long?
0:14:34 > 0:14:37LAUGHTER
0:14:37 > 0:14:40Must you be so crude?
0:14:40 > 0:14:42Sorry, Dot.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Give me a whisky and a fag over a fella anytime.
0:14:45 > 0:14:50Denise, you want to get back out there, hon, or that is the future.
0:14:50 > 0:14:54You know what they say, though, innit? If you don't use it, you lose it.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56I'll get some more wine.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Denise, I have an idea.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- Can I give you a hand with anything? - No, you're all right.
0:15:09 > 0:15:10OK, look...
0:15:10 > 0:15:16OK, I know my lot and your lot haven't exactly seen eye to eye lately,
0:15:16 > 0:15:21and I really just want to say thank you for not kicking me out earlier.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Anything to keep Dot happy.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Oh, look, the truth is I owe you, don't I?
0:15:27 > 0:15:30Covering for me at the salon all those times I was having treatment.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32- No. It's fine.- No, it's not.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35- You must've thought I was a right lazy cow at the time! - Yes, I did.- Yeah.
0:15:35 > 0:15:40Only cos I didn't know you had cancer! I'm so sorry.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43It's all right, don't be stupid. You can say the word.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46I have got used to hearing it now. I've had to.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48You know what, I think you're amazing.
0:15:48 > 0:15:49Behave!
0:15:49 > 0:15:52I do. The way you've dealt with the illness
0:15:52 > 0:15:54and the treatment, and the pressure it's put on you and Max.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56What you saying?
0:15:58 > 0:16:00I'm dribbling on cos I'm drunk.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Yeah, see. Join the club.
0:16:06 > 0:16:10I am not going on a blind date!
0:16:10 > 0:16:12But I have the perfect man in mind!
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Come on, we all know there's no such thing.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18Men! Men, men, men, men, men! It's all you've talked about all evening!
0:16:18 > 0:16:21You've got family and friends, ain't you?
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Ain't that enough?
0:16:24 > 0:16:31And you've got a future - not like poor Heather, taken from us before her time. Brutally murdered.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37Phil? You in or not? Phil?
0:16:41 > 0:16:44Not one of you has mentioned her all night.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48It's as if she's already been forgotten.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Course not, Dot.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52It's just hard to know what to say.
0:16:53 > 0:16:59Why don't we have another toast? To Heather, absent friend.
0:16:59 > 0:17:00ALL: To Heather!
0:17:02 > 0:17:07Here, anyone know how to make that cocktail that she loved? What was it again? Woo woo!
0:17:07 > 0:17:09Roxy's the expert.
0:17:09 > 0:17:13Bring me all your booze. Just all of it!
0:17:13 > 0:17:14LAUGHTER
0:17:22 > 0:17:24Forget it. I'm out.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28And I'll raise.
0:17:38 > 0:17:39Call.
0:17:50 > 0:17:51Nice one. Nicely played, sir.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- Very impressive. - Did you say something?
0:17:54 > 0:17:55We both lost out tonight, eh, Derek?
0:17:55 > 0:18:00Well, someone's got to lose. Knowing when to pick your battles.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02It's been a pleasure.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05Pleasure was all mine.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Now I've got the other stuff but I got no peach schnapps.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Oh, we can't have any woo woos.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17- Nah, let's go to the Vic and get some!- It's past last orders.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18There's always the R and R.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21And Ray might have gone there for a nightcap.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Bovvered.com?
0:18:24 > 0:18:26R and R, ladies?
0:18:26 > 0:18:29I think I've had enough fun for one night. And you...blind date?
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Oh, anything to shut you up!
0:18:32 > 0:18:35- I ain't coming, I'm skint. - Look, I'll get the first round! You're coming as well, Karen.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37I want to get a kebab first.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39You joining us, Mum?
0:18:39 > 0:18:42No. I better get back, make sure Dot's OK.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49What's Max been telling you, about him and Tanya?
0:18:51 > 0:18:52Nothing.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56So what was all that about before with Tanya?
0:18:56 > 0:18:58You talking about them being under pressure.
0:18:58 > 0:18:59SHE LAUGHS NERVOUSLY
0:18:59 > 0:19:02You mis-heard me!
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Seriously, come on, as if Max is going to tell me
0:19:04 > 0:19:06anything about his marriage!
0:19:14 > 0:19:18Shall we break into my last fiver and drown our sorrows?
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Get back to Mandy. Where would you rather be, eh?
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Crying into a beer with me, or curled up on the sofa with her?
0:19:23 > 0:19:25If Kat was around, I know what I'd choose.
0:19:25 > 0:19:26Yeah, see you later.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28See you, mate, take care.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31Lucky Michael told me about the game, or otherwise I'd have missed out.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37Listen, Phil, about this week's rent.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39It'll be tricky, especially after tonight.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42Well, that's the deal and you need to stick to it.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45Don't want people round here thinking I'm going soft, do I?
0:19:55 > 0:19:56Where's Tanya?
0:19:56 > 0:20:02Out. The coast is clear for you and Roxy.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07She told me everything.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11Then do you want to tell me? Cos I don't know what you're talking about.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14You two must have been getting very cosy.
0:20:14 > 0:20:19How else would she know about your recent marital problems?
0:20:19 > 0:20:24I ain't got a clue, Cora. Probably been gossiping with Jack.
0:20:25 > 0:20:30It all makes sense now, how you've been doting on Tanya.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33Why wouldn't I dote over her, Cora? She needs looking after.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36Or you've got a guilty conscience.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40All right, you want the truth, do you?
0:20:41 > 0:20:44Roxy made a move, and I knocked her back.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47Don't surprise me she's trying to stir things up,
0:20:47 > 0:20:49cos she's a woman scorned.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53That it, yeah? We done?
0:20:55 > 0:20:57Dinner's getting cold.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02Get your phone out. You're going to get her over here.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Then we'll see who's lying.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15PHONE BEEPS
0:21:15 > 0:21:19Hold on. I've got to go. I've got to go.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22No, no, no, I'll see you later! Go, go.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25- Why don't you go with her? - Baby! I've missed you!
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Hold on, you promised you'd never go to McKlunky's!
0:21:28 > 0:21:32Oh. Umm... I'll make it up to you.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36Hey, Mandy's told us all about the real Beale.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39Everything, yeah! Pretty shocking stuff.
0:21:39 > 0:21:43Oh, no, not about that!
0:21:43 > 0:21:47All have a good laugh, did you?! I should've let you leave yesterday.
0:21:49 > 0:21:55Oh, Ian! It happens to every man once in a while. Get over it!
0:22:00 > 0:22:04Ian! Ian!
0:22:07 > 0:22:09What's so urgent?
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Cora's convinced me and you are having some passionate affair,
0:22:17 > 0:22:20so do the decent thing and put her straight, will you?
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Please.
0:22:21 > 0:22:27Then maybe she'll stop these stupid ideas and go back to watching her Howard's Way box-set.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31Cora, I've already told you, yeah. We've been through this.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33Tell her the truth, Roxy.
0:22:33 > 0:22:40The truth? All right, fine. You want to know the truth, yeah?
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Me and Max, we talked a few times, OK?
0:22:52 > 0:22:55I was feeling low, after everything that happened with Amy...
0:22:55 > 0:22:56Spare me the self-pity.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01I flirted with him.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04OK. More than that, I offered it up on a plate.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Max wasn't interested, so I backed off. End of.
0:23:07 > 0:23:12What sort of shameless scrubber throws herself at a bloke
0:23:12 > 0:23:14whose wife's getting over cancer?!
0:23:14 > 0:23:18I know. I know, I'm sorry, OK.
0:23:18 > 0:23:19Coming here tonight, talking to Tanya,
0:23:19 > 0:23:22it made me realise what an idiot I've been.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24And I swear to you, I will never try it again.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Too right you won't.
0:23:26 > 0:23:31Cos if you do, I'll drag you through the square by those cheap extensions of yours
0:23:31 > 0:23:35and let everyone know exactly what you are.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Now get out.
0:23:54 > 0:23:55I don't know, Alf.
0:23:57 > 0:24:01I'm not sure if I'm comfortable with a Mitchell on the firm.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04Derek, you can trust Billy, I promise you.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06I'll have to take your word for that.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08So, why the change of heart?
0:24:10 > 0:24:13Well, try and make back some of the money I lost tonight. And then some.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21- I'll be in touch. - I'll let you out.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45Even a tart like Roxy Mitchell needs some sort of encouragement.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48Something tells me I'm only getting half the story.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52Yeah? You believe what you want.
0:24:52 > 0:24:57I won't have my daughter put through any more pain.
0:24:57 > 0:25:03Never stop being grateful she's still here, Max. Never.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12So...?
0:25:15 > 0:25:17OK. So...
0:25:20 > 0:25:21..I started a thing with a married man.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27Are you judging me?! I knew you were going to judge me!
0:25:27 > 0:25:30No, Rox, no. Look at my face.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32Look, come on - no judgement.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35Yeah, well, it might be your poker face.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38- Weren't much good tonight, the amount of cash I lost. - Oh, no, you didn't! How much?
0:25:38 > 0:25:41Stop changing the subject. About this fella. Come on.
0:25:45 > 0:25:49OK. We backed out before anything happened. Well, he did.
0:25:50 > 0:25:54And then tonight, I got this text and...and I should've ignored it.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56But instead, I went rushing round to see him...
0:25:58 > 0:26:02..and I made such an idiot of myself.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05And I didn't even like him that way anyway, yeah.
0:26:07 > 0:26:12And now, I've been rejected by a man I don't even like. How sad is that?
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Are you comforting me, or what?!
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Rox, so you got a knockback. So what, sweetheart?
0:26:21 > 0:26:23No big deal.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26There's a million and one fellas out there that would love to meet
0:26:26 > 0:26:29the East End's most lovable unnatural blonde. Eh?
0:26:29 > 0:26:31SHE LAUGHS
0:26:31 > 0:26:37It's not just that. It's, like, when I was in Ibiza, I was,
0:26:37 > 0:26:39like, the original party girl and I loved it.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41I really did.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44And now, it's like I'm the only one who's trying to be naughty,
0:26:44 > 0:26:47I'm the only one who's trying to keep up the party.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49And everyone's just gone home.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52Then let 'em go home. You stay at the party!
0:26:52 > 0:26:57With who?! With who? Christian's all loved up, Ronnie's...
0:26:57 > 0:27:03and those lot, they are not, they are not my mates.
0:27:03 > 0:27:09Excuse me, sister? What am I, chopped liver or something?
0:27:09 > 0:27:14You can be Cinderella, I'll be your prince. I can take you to the ball, can't I?
0:27:14 > 0:27:17What a pair we are?!
0:27:20 > 0:27:22OK, come on, then - how much did you lose?
0:27:22 > 0:27:24Oh, don't. Just...well...
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Well, enough to keep Phil and the taxman on my back.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32You worried?
0:27:32 > 0:27:35No, no, I'll tell you why. Because I have a plan.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40See, now I'm not worried. I wasn't worried.
0:27:40 > 0:27:46Because you may be old, but you are the magnificent Alfie Moon,
0:27:46 > 0:27:48and you always come up trumps. You do.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52And you are the lovely Roxy Mitchell. And I promise you, sweetheart,
0:27:52 > 0:27:57you may think you'll never meet the right bloke but I promise you will.
0:27:57 > 0:27:59And when you do - you'll know all about it.
0:27:59 > 0:28:03And you will live happily ever after.
0:28:03 > 0:28:05I do love you, Granddad, you know that, don't you?
0:28:05 > 0:28:08Oi. Stop with the blubbing, you'll make your mascara run.
0:28:08 > 0:28:09And mine as well. Come here.
0:28:09 > 0:28:15Come here, you can't go home looking like that with your panda eyes.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18Look at me. Clean 'em up like that. There we go.
0:28:18 > 0:28:21Listen, you're going to be fine, all right?
0:28:21 > 0:28:25Yeah. But I do mean it. I love you.
0:28:25 > 0:28:29You're always on my side, aren't you?
