Breakfast, Dave! | 0:00:33 | 0:00:34 | |
Where are you? | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
Oh, you ain't hiding yourself again, are you? | 0:00:38 | 0:00:41 | |
You daft thing! | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
Come on, now, breakfast. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
Oh, Lord, don't say I left the window open all night! | 0:00:49 | 0:00:53 | |
Hey. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:57 | |
I know you're bored, darling, but the holidays won't go any quicker by you driving me up the wall. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:02 | |
Now, there's a sponsored cycle on in the Square gardens later. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:06 | |
That should keep you entertained. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:07 | |
Sounds great. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
Did I hear the phone a minute ago? | 0:01:12 | 0:01:14 | |
Yeah, it was Dot. Worrying about a missing cat. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
Didn't even know she had a cat. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:18 | |
Well, that's probably because you haven't been round for a proper chat since you've been back. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:23 | |
She'll know you're here. Dot knows everything that goes on in Walford. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
Hm. All the more reason to keep a low profile. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
Come on. She was a good friend to your mum. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
Pop in. Oh, and have a look for that cat while you're at it. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
She's very attached. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:36 | |
Well, if I promise to see Dot, will you take a look at this? | 0:01:36 | 0:01:40 | |
I've been staring at this CV so long I can't see the wood for the trees. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:44 | |
You couldn't be a fresh pair of eyes, could you? | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
Looking for a job at this hour - I'm impressed. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
Yeah. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:51 | |
Well, after our little chat last night, I realised I can either | 0:01:51 | 0:01:55 | |
lounge around feeling sorry for myself or I can get out there. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:59 | |
You did mean what you said about lending me some money? | 0:02:00 | 0:02:03 | |
Well, yeah, but I don't see what the hurry is. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
I need to get away. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:07 | |
I need to find a job and I need to stop living off your generosity. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:11 | |
I've found a few that sound interesting. One up in Manchester. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:16 | |
Even a few I like the look of up in Scotland. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:18 | |
Give us a shout when you've had a look, yeah? | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
Yeah. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:22 | |
Look like you're flagging there a bit. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
You sure you're up for this? | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
It's called pacing yourself, actually, and enough of the mind games. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
It's going to be a long enough day as it is. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:34 | |
First to three miles, then? | 0:02:34 | 0:02:36 | |
You're on. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:38 | |
You're going to make that broken collarbone of yours worse if you're not careful. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
I've already had three cyclists drop out, his missus included. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
If we don't pick up the pace, we're going to be here until midnight! | 0:02:45 | 0:02:47 | |
I thought this was meant to be a bit of fun, not the Tour De France? | 0:02:47 | 0:02:51 | |
Tell me about it. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:52 | |
It's not even half eight yet and these boys are over-excited. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
I just wondered if you wanted to meet in the Vic after. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
Shirley's coming home and I wanted to chuck her a bit of a bash. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:02 | |
Really? | 0:03:02 | 0:03:03 | |
I didn't think you two were on the best of terms at the moment. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
Yeah. Sisters, eh? | 0:03:06 | 0:03:07 | |
Can't live with them, can't be bothered to ignore them for ever. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
Well, you can bet we'll be over at the Vic later. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:12 | |
I wouldn't want to miss Shirley sprouting her prison stories for the world. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:15 | |
I thought I'd be glad to see the back of her, but I've missed her, | 0:03:15 | 0:03:19 | |
the loud-mouthed cow. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
Despite it all, Shirley's my best mate. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
You know, and even when we can't bear each other, | 0:03:24 | 0:03:28 | |
I still couldn't be without her. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
She's even talking about going to Scotland. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
Closer than Florida. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
Look, Sharon, to be honest with you, I've got bigger things on my mind | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
at the minute than where Michelle gets a job. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
Look, if she goes now, with things the way they are, | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
that might be it for the two of you. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
The last time she left Walford she stayed away for 20 years, don't forget. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:55 | |
Michelle. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:56 | |
Look, she's made her mistakes, but she's ready to face up to them. | 0:03:56 | 0:04:01 | |
Well, it didn't seem like it when me and Stacey spoke to her yesterday. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
You should have seen the state of her last night when she came home. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:07 | |
You know, she was a wreck. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:10 | |
Which means we need to support her even more. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
She's ruined my business. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
Yeah, and her own life in the process. Please, Ian. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:20 | |
She's your cousin - you've known her your whole life. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:24 | |
Me making up to her, it's not going to be enough to make her stay, is it? | 0:04:26 | 0:04:30 | |
Well, it'll help. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:31 | |
If we can get her in the Vic tonight, | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
show her how much we care, that might just do the trick. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
There's no way she'll agree to go back in the Vic. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
Today she will. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
Well, I don't suppose you've noticed what the date is? | 0:04:42 | 0:04:46 | |
Mum died, 15 years ago today. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
Sharon, I'm so sorry. I didn't... | 0:04:48 | 0:04:52 | |
I thought we could toast her in her old haunt later. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |
Say seven? | 0:04:55 | 0:04:57 | |
Yeah, of course. We'll be there. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
And so will Michelle. She's my best mate. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:03 | |
She's not about to refuse me this - I'll make sure of it. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |
Oi! | 0:05:15 | 0:05:16 | |
Oi, you can't just dump my stuff on the doorstep! | 0:05:16 | 0:05:20 | |
You stab that thing any harder, your finger'll snap off. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:02 | |
Quote from the builder from yesterday. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:04 | |
I'm trying to figure out where we can find the money. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:08 | |
If we can find the money... | 0:06:08 | 0:06:10 | |
Are you sure you'll be able to forgive Michelle for starting all this? | 0:06:10 | 0:06:14 | |
I know Sharon was pushing for it. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
Mark and Michelle were more like a brother and sister | 0:06:16 | 0:06:21 | |
to me than cousins when we were growing up. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:24 | |
I can't turn my back on that, not for anything. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:27 | |
If I'd have done the insurance properly, we wouldn't be in this mess, would we? | 0:06:27 | 0:06:32 | |
Ian... | 0:06:33 | 0:06:35 | |
Ian, I know how much that chippy means to you. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:40 | |
I can still remember us working together behind the counter. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:46 | |
The twins doing a shift after school... | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
..but if holding on to it's causing you this much stress, | 0:06:50 | 0:06:53 | |
if it means losing this house or the other businesses, | 0:06:53 | 0:06:55 | |
then maybe it's time we cut our losses and sold up? | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
Hey, shall we tell them how much going off fast knackers your legs? | 0:07:05 | 0:07:09 | |
Nah. They'll find out for themselves. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:12 | |
You fancy a flutter on the National? | 0:07:13 | 0:07:16 | |
I mean, everybody loves a sweepstake. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:19 | |
Go on, then. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:20 | |
All right. Yeah, man. Oh, by the way, I just heard from Dot. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:24 | |
Her cat's gone walkabout, so just keep an eye, all right? | 0:07:24 | 0:07:28 | |
Yeah, course. I'm just going nip off for some more water. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
Hold the fort, yeah? | 0:07:31 | 0:07:33 | |
Got it. Yeah. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:34 | |
You all right, darling? | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
Looks like everything's going well. I can't wait for my turn later. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:40 | |
That's what they all say. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:41 | |
Until they get on the bike and overdo it. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
Has anyone got any water? | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
Lucky boy. Last one. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
You won't catch me wearing myself out in five minutes. | 0:07:50 | 0:07:53 | |
If there's anything I have learned, | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
it's that things are more fun when you take them slow. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
Right, so I just checked the maps. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
And miles wise, we're somewhere near Maidenhead. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:07 | |
Well, the next batch have got to move fast if we've got to make up some ground. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:10 | |
Don't let him scare you. Slow and steady wins the race, yeah? | 0:08:10 | 0:08:13 | |
Yeah. See you later. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:15 | |
Oh, and I've seen you touting your sweepstake around the market. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:20 | |
Find me later - I love a little flutter! | 0:08:20 | 0:08:23 | |
Look, now, man, you're never going to sort this thing out if she keeps walking away, you know. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:32 | |
-Hot chocolate on the house, and no arguments. -Thanks, Kath. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
That's a lovely photo. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:50 | |
I can see why you went to the trouble of having it framed. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
It was meant to be a present for Mum. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:55 | |
Don't tell Shirley you've seen it. | 0:08:55 | 0:08:56 | |
I promised her it'd never see the light of day. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
Listen, Tina, tell me to mind my own business, but... | 0:09:01 | 0:09:06 | |
I saw you coming out of number 55 before, | 0:09:06 | 0:09:09 | |
and what with that and the bin bags... | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
I got evicted yesterday. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
But I'm all right about it. I'm fine. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:15 | |
I was down about it. Mostly down about Shirl... | 0:09:15 | 0:09:19 | |
But Michelle and Sharon, they kindly lent me their settee. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:24 | |
And the kids there, they're a real laugh. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
And me and Shirl - we'll get through this. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:31 | |
The two of us, we always do. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:33 | |
She's getting out later. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:37 | |
Oh, Tina, that's great news! | 0:09:37 | 0:09:39 | |
Yeah, I was thinking of having a few drinks in the Vic later, if you're up for it. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
Yeah, sounds great. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:44 | |
I can put on a bit of a spread, if you like. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
Thanks, Kathy. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:48 | |
Right. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:50 | |
Right, so, Kim's a drop-out, yeah? | 0:09:53 | 0:09:56 | |
Yeah, sorry about that. | 0:09:56 | 0:09:58 | |
Look, if it helps, this salsa course that she booked last minute | 0:09:58 | 0:10:01 | |
is costing me way more than it's costing you. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:04 | |
Well, not to worry, | 0:10:04 | 0:10:05 | |
cos I'm sure wonder boy here can pick up the slack. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:09 | |
Oh, nice threads, bruv. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:11 | |
Yeah. Mum made me wear them. If anyone sees me, I swear... | 0:10:11 | 0:10:14 | |
Relax! Look, if you're going to do a good job, | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
-you've got to wear the proper gear. -Real men wear Lycra. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
-Do they? -That's it, I'm going. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:22 | |
Where do you think you're going off to? | 0:10:23 | 0:10:25 | |
This is humiliating, Mum. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:26 | |
What - getting healthy and helping your mum and your brother is humiliating, is it? | 0:10:26 | 0:10:31 | |
-Yes. -I'd better go and remind Winston he's on in a bit. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
Yeah, about that. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:36 | |
Yo, Shaks - why's there a chipolata down your shorts, bruv? | 0:10:36 | 0:10:40 | |
Just ignore him, poppet. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:41 | |
Get off the bike. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:46 | |
-What? -I need you to get off the bike and let me take over. | 0:10:46 | 0:10:50 | |
What are you saying to him? | 0:10:50 | 0:10:51 | |
Shakil, just this once I'm telling you ignore your mum | 0:10:51 | 0:10:54 | |
and listen to what I am telling you, OK? | 0:10:54 | 0:10:56 | |
I've got a picture! | 0:10:56 | 0:10:58 | |
Give it a minute, it'll be all round school. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
Shaki! | 0:11:01 | 0:11:02 | |
Sorry, Mum. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:05 | |
What do you think you're doing? | 0:11:05 | 0:11:07 | |
I'm doing my bit for the sponsored cycle, just like you are. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:11 | |
And if you have to listen to me while I'm up here, then so be it. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:15 | |
All right, Johnny? Did you get those banners I texted you about? | 0:11:17 | 0:11:21 | |
Yeah, I think they've seen better days. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:23 | |
That don't matter, as long as Shirley knows we've made the effort. | 0:11:23 | 0:11:27 | |
Oh, I've reserved you an area for later an' all. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:29 | |
-Oh, cool. -Plus... | 0:11:29 | 0:11:31 | |
What? | 0:11:32 | 0:11:33 | |
Well, I mentioned to Sharon about Shirley coming home, right, | 0:11:33 | 0:11:36 | |
and I said wouldn't it be a nice idea if we stand everyone | 0:11:36 | 0:11:39 | |
the first drinks of the night? | 0:11:39 | 0:11:40 | |
"How could I look your mum in the eye if I told her I'd given away the house?" | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
I mean, honestly, what was Linda thinking leaving her in charge?! | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
It's a joke. She's barely even been here! | 0:11:47 | 0:11:50 | |
And Lady Di, she's still not right. She's missing Mick, I think. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:54 | |
OK, look, the drinks don't matter, all right? The banners don't matter. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:57 | |
All that matters is that Shirley is back where she belongs, all right? | 0:11:57 | 0:12:01 | |
Look, I know that you probably think | 0:12:03 | 0:12:05 | |
that me and Kush is just some daft fling, but I promise you, | 0:12:05 | 0:12:11 | |
this is for real. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:13 | |
We're in it for the long haul. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
If we weren't, do you really think | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
that we would have risked all this upset? | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
Carmel, look, neither of us have wanted to hurt you, | 0:12:25 | 0:12:29 | |
and we have tried to stay away from each other. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:32 | |
When this started between us last year... | 0:12:35 | 0:12:37 | |
Last year?! | 0:12:37 | 0:12:39 | |
I heard you were missing someone. Still no sign? | 0:12:42 | 0:12:45 | |
No. Well, he ain't really my cat, you know, as such. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:51 | |
We just found each other. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
We had a cat once. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
-Did you? -I think he only lasted about a month before he ran off. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:58 | |
Probably ended up getting eaten by something. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |
Oh, don't say that, Michelle. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:02 | |
Well, of course, that's Florida. Wouldn't happen here. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:05 | |
-It's all them crocodiles, I suppose, yes. -Yeah. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:09 | |
I mean, if he don't want to stay with me, I can't make him, can I? | 0:13:09 | 0:13:14 | |
I'm sorry I've not been round for a proper catch-up. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:20 | |
Mum would be ashamed of me. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:22 | |
Oh, don't worry yourself. You've been busy. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:26 | |
You've heard, then. | 0:13:26 | 0:13:28 | |
-Sharon said you still had your finger on the pulse. -Oh! | 0:13:28 | 0:13:32 | |
I'd like to say it's not as bad as it sounds, but... | 0:13:32 | 0:13:36 | |
I've decided it's best...if I head off again. Not America this time. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:44 | |
Just somewhere. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:46 | |
But, you only have one home, Michelle, and yours is Walford, | 0:13:46 | 0:13:51 | |
no matter where you go. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:53 | |
I tell you what - why don't I take over the search? | 0:13:56 | 0:14:01 | |
What? | 0:14:01 | 0:14:02 | |
I can knock on a few doors, maybe make up some flyers... | 0:14:02 | 0:14:05 | |
That's very good of you, but you've got enough on your plate. | 0:14:05 | 0:14:07 | |
No, no, I insist. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
If I find him, I'll bring him straight home. What's his name? | 0:14:09 | 0:14:12 | |
Dave. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:13 | |
Fingers crossed I'll have Dave back by tea-time. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
Carmel. Carmel, will you stop and talk to me? Carmel! Will you... | 0:14:25 | 0:14:29 | |
Look, Kush isn't the baby's father if that's what you're worrying about. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:34 | |
No, that was just some grubby one-night stand! | 0:14:34 | 0:14:36 | |
I thought you'd only just recently started sneaking behind my back. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:40 | |
Turns out you have been at it for a whole year! | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
Look, don't you get it? | 0:14:43 | 0:14:45 | |
You were one of the reasons that we tried to stay away from each other! | 0:14:45 | 0:14:48 | |
You mean the world to us. To both of us, Carmel. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:51 | |
You're my best mate, you know you are. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:53 | |
Yeah, and you're spoiled goods. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:55 | |
I didn't mean that. | 0:14:57 | 0:14:58 | |
Yeah, you did. | 0:14:58 | 0:14:59 | |
Kush being with you isn't like being with another woman. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
I mean, he'd be giving up his chance to have more kids. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
No, no, no. This... You've got two sons. This ain't about grandkids. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:12 | |
He's my first-born. My Kushy. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:17 | |
And I'm never going to be good enough for him, am I, no matter what I do? | 0:15:17 | 0:15:20 | |
I'm sorry. Just put yourself in my shoes, yeah? | 0:15:20 | 0:15:24 | |
I mean, what if Libby was going out with someone twice her age... | 0:15:24 | 0:15:27 | |
Someone who was spoiled goods. Is that what you mean? | 0:15:27 | 0:15:29 | |
No, I didn't... | 0:15:29 | 0:15:31 | |
Just try and see it from my point of view, that's all. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:36 | |
DOOR SLAMS | 0:15:46 | 0:15:48 | |
Just been out looking for Dot's cat. No sign, of course. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:56 | |
It'll be long gone by now. | 0:15:56 | 0:15:58 | |
Poor Dot, she'll be gutted. | 0:15:58 | 0:15:59 | |
Mind you, I'm not surprised. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:01 | |
That cat's got form of going walkabout. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:04 | |
I told Tina she could stay another couple of nights | 0:16:04 | 0:16:06 | |
if she keeps that up. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:07 | |
Tidier than she looks, that one. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
-Did you get a chance to look at that CV? -Yeah! | 0:16:09 | 0:16:13 | |
With your experience, any employer would be lucky to have you. | 0:16:13 | 0:16:16 | |
I don't need an ego boost, Sharon. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:18 | |
We both know with my references, it's going to be an uphill struggle. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:21 | |
Well, don't get too comfy. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
I told Ian we'd see him in the Vic in a bit. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:25 | |
No, no. No way. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:27 | |
Michelle, it's 15 years since Mum died. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:30 | |
I want to toast her in her own pub and I want you with me. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:33 | |
You had an affair with my dad | 0:16:36 | 0:16:38 | |
and you slept with my ex-husband | 0:16:38 | 0:16:40 | |
and WE'RE still stood here, aren't we? | 0:16:40 | 0:16:43 | |
Mistakes can be forgotten. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:44 | |
CLANKING | 0:16:49 | 0:16:51 | |
Carter. With me. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:58 | |
Oh, wow. It's awesome! | 0:17:07 | 0:17:09 | |
Well, that's down to Kathy, actually. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
But she had to get back to the cafe. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:14 | |
Well, cheap and cheerful, just like Shirl! | 0:17:14 | 0:17:16 | |
Ah, that's nice. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:18 | |
Yeah, Shirley will probably go mad, | 0:17:18 | 0:17:21 | |
but looking at it makes me really happy, so... | 0:17:21 | 0:17:24 | |
If I can't get away with it tonight, when can I? | 0:17:24 | 0:17:27 | |
She's not here yet? | 0:17:27 | 0:17:28 | |
What? | 0:17:28 | 0:17:30 | |
I'm here for the party! | 0:17:30 | 0:17:31 | |
I couldn't miss Shirley coming home. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:33 | |
She's been away from men for a long time now... | 0:17:33 | 0:17:36 | |
I don't know, I could get lucky tonight! | 0:17:36 | 0:17:38 | |
Yeah, well, good luck with that. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:40 | |
Afterwards, if she wanted to go for a kebab, I might even buy. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:44 | |
Sharon's coming in later, so best behaviour, yeah? | 0:17:48 | 0:17:51 | |
Dad said we've got to keep her sweet while she's looking after the place. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:55 | |
OK. How did he seem? | 0:17:55 | 0:17:57 | |
Misses us. | 0:17:57 | 0:17:58 | |
Misses this place. | 0:17:58 | 0:18:00 | |
The sooner he's back, the better, eh? | 0:18:00 | 0:18:02 | |
Anyone serving? | 0:18:02 | 0:18:04 | |
You boys look happy. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:06 | |
Well, businessmen now, ain't we? Only been one day, | 0:18:06 | 0:18:08 | |
and we've already got two rooms in our house earning us cash. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
I'd better dig out the cocktail menu then! | 0:18:11 | 0:18:13 | |
Did you see Land's End? | 0:18:15 | 0:18:16 | |
Well, the good news is, we made it. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:18 | |
And the better news is, I put in the most miles, | 0:18:18 | 0:18:21 | |
so this round is definitely on someone else! | 0:18:21 | 0:18:23 | |
Yes. I'll get these in. What's everybody having? | 0:18:23 | 0:18:26 | |
I think I've pulled a muscle. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:28 | |
Oh, Martin. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:29 | |
No, I knew I should never have let you persuade me to have a go. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:32 | |
All in a good cause. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:34 | |
There you go. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:36 | |
Listen, I've been thinking about what you said about the chippy, | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
and getting rid of it... | 0:18:39 | 0:18:41 | |
Yeah, it's the smart thing to do, but... | 0:18:41 | 0:18:43 | |
I can't do it. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
I'm sorry, love, but that's just the way it is. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:49 | |
Johnny, can I have a beer for him and a bottle of white wine | 0:18:50 | 0:18:53 | |
-and three glasses, please? -Sure. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:55 | |
-Hi. -Hello, all right? | 0:18:59 | 0:19:00 | |
I don't believe this. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:04 | |
Sharon, I... | 0:19:04 | 0:19:05 | |
Look, for one night only, this is Mum's place again, OK? | 0:19:05 | 0:19:08 | |
Come on. | 0:19:08 | 0:19:09 | |
Lovely. Ta. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:15 | |
Peace offering. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
I think I should be the one doing that, don't you? | 0:19:17 | 0:19:20 | |
Thanks, Ian. I'm not sure I deserve forgiveness. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:24 | |
You've got it anyway. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:25 | |
Right, everyone, could I have your attention, please? | 0:19:28 | 0:19:31 | |
As a lot of you know, I was brought up in this pub. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
My mum and dad both ran the place, | 0:19:34 | 0:19:36 | |
but everyone knew that my mum was the heart of the Queen Victoria. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:40 | |
Anyway, 15 years ago, I brought her body back here. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:44 | |
I brought her home. | 0:19:44 | 0:19:46 | |
No disrespect to absent friends, | 0:19:46 | 0:19:47 | |
but your mum was the best landlady this place has ever had. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:50 | |
My mum meant the world to me. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:52 | |
Just like it means the world to have Michelle back here | 0:19:52 | 0:19:54 | |
to toast her with me. | 0:19:54 | 0:19:55 | |
You only really ever get one best mate in life. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
And they need holding on to. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:00 | |
Where you off to? | 0:20:02 | 0:20:04 | |
Just something I need to sort out. I'll see you later. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
So, if you'd all raise your glasses. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
To Angie Watts! | 0:20:09 | 0:20:10 | |
Angie Watts! | 0:20:10 | 0:20:12 | |
Angie Watts! | 0:20:12 | 0:20:13 | |
I told you I didn't want to come in here. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
CAT MEOWS | 0:20:39 | 0:20:42 | |
OK, I haven't come to try and... | 0:21:04 | 0:21:08 | |
..trick you into talking to me again, so... | 0:21:09 | 0:21:12 | |
I wouldn't expect you to. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:15 | |
Not after what I said. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:17 | |
I'm so sorry, Denise. It just came out. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:23 | |
I don't like to think of myself like that. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:26 | |
As someone who says nasty things. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:28 | |
I don't keep in touch with any of my school friends, do you know that? | 0:21:32 | 0:21:36 | |
Not a single one. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:38 | |
Me neither. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:39 | |
Or any of the women I was mates with when the boys were little. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:43 | |
They all just faded away when the kids left school. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:47 | |
Umar always said I was a man's woman. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:52 | |
Not the type to have any close female friends. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:56 | |
We know differently, don't we? | 0:21:57 | 0:21:59 | |
I never thought I'd find a true friend. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:05 | |
Not at our age. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:07 | |
Me neither. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:13 | |
But we did. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:15 | |
That's something we can be proud of, isn't it? | 0:22:16 | 0:22:19 | |
It's over between us, isn't it? | 0:22:23 | 0:22:25 | |
I think so. | 0:22:29 | 0:22:30 | |
Dave? | 0:22:42 | 0:22:43 | |
CAT MEOWS | 0:22:43 | 0:22:45 | |
How did you even manage to get... | 0:22:57 | 0:22:59 | |
Dot should have left you wherever she found you, | 0:23:01 | 0:23:03 | |
is what I'm thinking, you little... | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
I bet you're loving all this. | 0:23:13 | 0:23:14 | |
Where is she? She should have been here ages ago. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:20 | |
I don't know, probably stopped off for a drink somewhere. | 0:23:20 | 0:23:23 | |
Getting herself a well-earned vodka. She'll be here, trust me. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
I hope so. Kathy's egg and cress sandwiches are starting to curl. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:29 | |
PHONE RINGS | 0:23:29 | 0:23:30 | |
Can you get that? I've got punters stacking up here. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
Ahh! No-one touches the vol-au-vents until Shirley gets here! | 0:23:33 | 0:23:37 | |
Queen Vic. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:41 | |
Shirl! Where are you? | 0:23:41 | 0:23:43 | |
'I'm still here in prison. I've got another three weeks.' | 0:23:43 | 0:23:47 | |
-Where've you been? -Doesn't matter now. | 0:23:50 | 0:23:52 | |
Oi oi! | 0:23:53 | 0:23:54 | |
Get a room! | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
Buy me a drink, you gorgeous man. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:03 | |
You'd like who Rebecca's grown into. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:07 | |
She's sweet, like Martin... | 0:24:09 | 0:24:12 | |
But with Sonia's brains. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:15 | |
You know what she said to me yesterday? | 0:24:17 | 0:24:19 | |
"Gran would understand". | 0:24:22 | 0:24:25 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
You can tell she only has Martin's version of you to work with! | 0:24:27 | 0:24:31 | |
I don't know what you would have given me more grief about - | 0:24:33 | 0:24:36 | |
running off with a teenager, or ruining Ian's business. | 0:24:36 | 0:24:39 | |
I always thought I knew best, didn't I? | 0:24:43 | 0:24:46 | |
Well, the universe had its revenge on that score | 0:24:46 | 0:24:49 | |
when Vicki hit her teens. | 0:24:49 | 0:24:50 | |
My word, the things that used to come out of that girl's mouth. | 0:24:50 | 0:24:55 | |
Now I'd give anything just to hear her voice. | 0:25:00 | 0:25:03 | |
Her and Mark are both... | 0:25:05 | 0:25:07 | |
..angry, shall we say? | 0:25:10 | 0:25:13 | |
He'll come round eventually, I think, but... | 0:25:15 | 0:25:18 | |
daughters, they stick to their guns, don't they? | 0:25:18 | 0:25:20 | |
Sometimes I think... | 0:25:22 | 0:25:24 | |
I spent so many years pretending to be happy, | 0:25:24 | 0:25:27 | |
just so I could lord it over you and Sharon and the rest, | 0:25:27 | 0:25:29 | |
that I actually... | 0:25:29 | 0:25:31 | |
I actually forgot to BE happy. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:34 | |
You did that in the end, didn't you? | 0:25:37 | 0:25:39 | |
Forgot to be happy. | 0:25:40 | 0:25:42 | |
You pushed away everyone who ever loved you. | 0:25:42 | 0:25:45 | |
When I heard what happened... | 0:25:49 | 0:25:50 | |
Where you'd died, I thought, out in the cold... | 0:25:52 | 0:25:55 | |
Well, she WAS cold. | 0:25:55 | 0:25:57 | |
And you were, Mum. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:00 | |
I just wish you hadn't been alone. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:04 | |
That's all. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:05 | |
Still... | 0:26:08 | 0:26:09 | |
That'll be me soon, the way I'm going. | 0:26:11 | 0:26:13 | |
Dead in the cold, | 0:26:16 | 0:26:17 | |
and my own daughter won't bother to show her face at my funeral. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:20 | |
I don't know what to do, Mum. I'm stuck. | 0:26:26 | 0:26:28 | |
Stuck between the past and nothing. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:34 | |
Cos what future do I have now, eh? | 0:26:37 | 0:26:39 | |
I've got nothing planned. | 0:26:41 | 0:26:43 | |
Nothing mapped out. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:46 | |
I can't even trust my own judgment any more. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:51 | |
I've lost myself. | 0:26:55 | 0:26:56 | |
Maybe we're not as different as I always thought, you and me. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:05 | |
At least you always knew where you belonged. | 0:27:08 | 0:27:11 | |
CAT MEOWS | 0:27:11 | 0:27:13 | |
I didn't think you'd have gone far. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:25 | |
You know when you're onto a good thing, don't you? | 0:27:29 | 0:27:32 | |
CAT PURRS | 0:27:32 | 0:27:34 | |
What's up? | 0:27:40 | 0:27:41 | |
It's Shirley. | 0:27:41 | 0:27:43 | |
She's been done for assaulting her cellmate. | 0:27:43 | 0:27:46 | |
She ain't coming out. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:47 | |
I've been so angry with her. So horrible. | 0:27:49 | 0:27:52 | |
Now I just want my sister back. | 0:27:54 | 0:27:56 | |
Look, she'll be home soon. It'll be all right. | 0:27:56 | 0:27:59 | |
So, shall we just go home, then? | 0:28:07 | 0:28:09 | |
Ian. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:11 | |
I found Dot's cat in the launderette. | 0:28:13 | 0:28:15 | |
Probably having the time of its life chasing after all them rats. | 0:28:15 | 0:28:19 | |
That's...good? | 0:28:19 | 0:28:21 | |
This big old stray cat. | 0:28:21 | 0:28:23 | |
I just took him back over to Dot's | 0:28:23 | 0:28:26 | |
and he settled down like he'd been there all his life. | 0:28:26 | 0:28:29 | |
Are you OK, darling? | 0:28:29 | 0:28:31 | |
Look at the state of my hair! Where did you find this?! | 0:28:36 | 0:28:39 | |
Down the back of one of the dryers. | 0:28:39 | 0:28:41 | |
Probably been there since Mum's day. Guess who took that photo? | 0:28:41 | 0:28:45 | |
It's so 1980s, it could have been Shakin' Stevens himself. | 0:28:45 | 0:28:49 | |
I did, Sharon. | 0:28:49 | 0:28:51 | |
I'm in the fabric of this place as much as you, | 0:28:52 | 0:28:56 | |
or Ange, | 0:28:56 | 0:28:57 | |
or Mum. | 0:28:57 | 0:28:59 | |
I don't want to be a stray any more. | 0:29:00 | 0:29:02 | |
I want to be happy again, put down roots, build a new life. | 0:29:03 | 0:29:07 | |
Where else am I ever going to be able to do that better than here? | 0:29:09 | 0:29:12 | |
Welcome home. | 0:29:14 | 0:29:15 |
