0:00:27 > 0:00:30I was thinking we could take Ollie across the Square later,
0:00:30 > 0:00:33get involved in that Walford In Bloom.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37You know, three of us, do a bit of gardening.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40It's bank holiday, one of us needs to be here.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43- Yeah, well, Johnny can cover for half hour.- What if he's got plans?
0:00:43 > 0:00:46You two need your heads banging together.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49You've had a cold northerly front coming off you all weekend.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52So you must have done something wrong. What is it?
0:00:54 > 0:00:57I don't have much of an appetite. I'm going to go and get Ollie up.
0:01:00 > 0:01:01Right, we've got loads to do,
0:01:01 > 0:01:04so, first we've got to water all the hanging baskets and window boxes.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06- Yeah, I'm on it. - I'll give you a hand.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09And we need to round up some volunteers to help set up the stage.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12Martin will help. I'll find some others.
0:01:12 > 0:01:13Oh, you know, it's...
0:01:13 > 0:01:16- It's going to feel like a proper festival!- Do you know what?
0:01:16 > 0:01:18I'm going to get Tina selling iced coffees.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21- I'll make a killing! - That's not a bad idea.- Yeah.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29- You do know what's happening with that old Towers site?- I heard.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Yeah - and them developers, they only got the bid
0:01:32 > 0:01:36cos they agreed that 15% of them new flats go into social housing.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39Well, they must have found some sort of legal loophole
0:01:39 > 0:01:40and wriggled out of it.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42- It's shocking.- Yeah -
0:01:42 > 0:01:45- and the council should be doing something about this.- Yeah.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47Now the Gazette's got wind of it.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49They've been sniffing round the planning department for a story.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Oh, you all right, darling?
0:01:51 > 0:01:53- You all right?- Yeah.
0:01:53 > 0:01:57I got to be meeting Kim and Pearl, so I'll catch you later.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00- See you later.- Yeah. - What was all that about?
0:02:00 > 0:02:03- The council?- Nothing important.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06- I'd better go.- Yeah, see you later.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09- I'll pop over to the gardens later, give you a hand.- Great.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15What was that about?
0:02:15 > 0:02:20- Oh, I don't know yet.- We're still on for Friday, yeah? It's important.
0:02:20 > 0:02:21Yeah, course. See you later.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31- You lost something? - Yeah, an earring, yesterday.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34I thought it might have been kicked under the sofa.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38- You look exhausted. - Oh, I'm fine.- No, you're not.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Now, this business with Jay, you need to put it right.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43How can I?
0:02:43 > 0:02:46- He won't answer my calls or my texts.- So go round.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Ben said he hasn't come out of his room since Jase's anniversary.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52- He needs support.- He's got to come to me in his own time.
0:02:54 > 0:02:59These last few weeks have been amazing. Just you and me.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Not having to lie. That's all that I want.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Yeah.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Me too.
0:03:05 > 0:03:09Look, um, I'd probably better get to work.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Do you have to?
0:03:11 > 0:03:14Yeah, sorry. You know what bank holidays are like.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18Look, we will have loads of time alone together soon.
0:03:18 > 0:03:19OK? I promise.
0:03:30 > 0:03:31We're back!
0:03:33 > 0:03:34Hiya.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44Never mind about the cleaning.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47Linda...
0:03:47 > 0:03:49you and Mick, what's happening?
0:03:51 > 0:03:53You wouldn't understand.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55He's trying so hard. You've got to give him a chance.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01- You've no idea how hard I'm trying. - But it's worth it, isn't it?
0:04:04 > 0:04:05Do you ever think about why me
0:04:05 > 0:04:09- and you didn't get on for all those years?- You burned down my mum's pub.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Yeah, I know. All right - but I mean before that.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17I remember when Mick first brought you home.
0:04:17 > 0:04:18You were a skinny little thing.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22All tarted up in Lycra and glitter.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27You weren't even together then, but I could tell...
0:04:29 > 0:04:31..and Mick became the man that he wanted to be, for you...
0:04:33 > 0:04:36..and everything Mick is today is because of you.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45Linda, it was just a kiss. You've got to forget about it.
0:04:47 > 0:04:48It wasn't just one kiss, though.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55Denise said there was another kiss, after the bus crash.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Come on, this is silly.
0:05:08 > 0:05:09So I'm silly now?
0:05:09 > 0:05:13- FOOTSTEPS ON STAIRS - I don't mean that. It's just...
0:05:13 > 0:05:15Can we go now?
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Go where?
0:05:17 > 0:05:18Go to the allotment.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Yeah, they wanted to check on their vegetables today.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24- We're going to win Walford In Bloom. - Are you coming, Dad?- Erm...
0:05:24 > 0:05:28No. No, I've got a few things to take care of here.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30- You have fun for me though, yeah?- OK.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37All this time you knew and you never said anything?
0:05:37 > 0:05:38I thought Mick told you everything.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Look, it was months ago, Linda. You've got to let it go.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44How can I?
0:05:44 > 0:05:48Every time I think I know the full story, there's something else!
0:05:50 > 0:05:53- What's next? - You think they slept together.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56You were away for ages.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00If Mick wanted to sleep with her, he would have.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06You looking forward to seeing Steven?
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Yeah, I'm going to see him after work.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10We've got a few things to sort out.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12Then I'm going to give him the best few weeks ever.
0:06:12 > 0:06:13KNOCK AT DOOR
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- Lauren?- Yeah, in here.
0:06:16 > 0:06:17- You all right?- Hiya!
0:06:17 > 0:06:19How are you doing?
0:06:19 > 0:06:23Oh! Your mum called me. She told me you left early.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25I'm glad you came back, today of all days.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31I just mean it's close to the wedding.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38- What's this? Family reunion? - Hiya!- Hey, you!
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Oh!
0:06:40 > 0:06:44- I've got to make a move, so see you later.- See you.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Hey, so, good trip?
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Yeah, it was so good.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Oh, and Mum said you two are overdue a long chat.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Well, Steven's going to be really pleased to see you.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58Oh, um, this was in with my post.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00It looks official.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02- It's from the prison.- What's it say?
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Bobby's put us on his call list.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Phone privilege starts at five.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18I can't wait to speak to him, Ian!
0:07:29 > 0:07:32- You two have done an amazing job. - Do you think so?
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Yes -
0:07:34 > 0:07:38and I bet all this lovely veg will taste delicious.
0:07:38 > 0:07:39I'd rather have pizza.
0:07:40 > 0:07:46Mum used to say if you eat carrots, you'll get super X-ray vision.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48No, you don't.
0:07:48 > 0:07:49I know.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52I'll just eat these ones because it'll make her happy.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59I'm rounding up volunteers to help set the stage for Walford In Bloom.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02- Is Mick and Johnny about? - They're inside.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Stace.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07What do you reckon?
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Whitney and Woody. Do you think they're the real thing?
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Aw, I hope so. She deserves to be happy.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Oh, what? You've never made a mistake?
0:08:16 > 0:08:19I've never seen her as happy and settled as she is with Woody.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21That's all she's ever wanted.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Do you want to do a shift after lunch? A bit of extra cash?
0:08:24 > 0:08:25Yeah, why not?
0:08:25 > 0:08:29- Michelle's baby-sitting, so shouldn't be a problem.- Cheers.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33- You excited for your holiday? - Do you know? I can't wait!
0:08:33 > 0:08:37And as soon as that cab gets here, I'm officially in holiday mode.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41MOBILE RINGS
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Hello?
0:08:46 > 0:08:47Yep, speaking.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51You're joking.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55No, I'm meant to be getting married next week.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58What...?
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Is that the best you can do?
0:09:03 > 0:09:04Yeah, all right.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06It'll have to be.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Yeah, thank you. Bye.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10Bad news?
0:09:14 > 0:09:17- The registry office have cancelled. - What? Why?
0:09:17 > 0:09:19There's been a flood or something.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23The best they can give me is the 31st of October.
0:09:23 > 0:09:24Halloween?
0:09:27 > 0:09:29We can't wait that long.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33I'm going to have to resend all the invites out and everything.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35- MOBILE ALERT - Oh!
0:09:35 > 0:09:37That's my cab.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Lauren, look, I'm sorry I can't help -
0:09:39 > 0:09:42but listen, it's only a few weeks away.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Try not to be too disappointed, eh?
0:09:45 > 0:09:47I'll see you.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Oh, while you're here, we need to talk plans for the party.
0:10:03 > 0:10:04What party?
0:10:04 > 0:10:07Ricky and Janet's joint birthday party.
0:10:07 > 0:10:08I did talk it through with Jack.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11Ah, he hasn't said anything.
0:10:13 > 0:10:17Oh. Well, it's the first without Ronnie. What's wrong?
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Jack and I...
0:10:25 > 0:10:27We kissed.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29- Oh!- Shh!
0:10:29 > 0:10:32It happened on the camping trip.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Well, has Jack said anything?
0:10:35 > 0:10:36He probably thinks badly of me.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38No.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40Look, I'm sure he doesn't...
0:10:42 > 0:10:45..but there hasn't been anyone since Ronnie.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47What you got?
0:10:47 > 0:10:50Here you go, son. Get that down you.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53- Been shopping?- Er, yeah.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57We got some guests coming for lunch. Whitney and Woody.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- Why?- Because after that fight you had with him,
0:11:00 > 0:11:03it's about time we started building some bridges.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10- What do you think you're doing? - Look, chucked Whitney out,
0:11:10 > 0:11:12but she keeps turning up like a bad penny.
0:11:12 > 0:11:13We need to front this out.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16- I don't want to sit opposite her, playing nice.- Yes, you do.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19So you can see for yourself that she's not a threat to you any more.
0:11:19 > 0:11:20What about the pub?
0:11:20 > 0:11:22Stacey's going to do an extra shift for a bit of money.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24I'll get Tina to help her.
0:11:24 > 0:11:28Johnny can take Ollie over to the Square, so there's no distractions.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30Look, Linda, I've got your back.
0:11:30 > 0:11:34- You've done an amazing job. - Oh, it's a pleasure.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37Besides, it's the bride that makes the dress.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40Now then, you be very careful. No hands.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Good.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Such an exciting time, eh, for you and Steven?
0:11:47 > 0:11:49I expect you'll be looking for a new house.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53Um, yeah, I don't know.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56I think maybe Jane and Ian might be moving out.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Wow! Big family house like that.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Two of you want to fill it with a lot more kids!
0:12:04 > 0:12:07Mind you, you're still young. You've got plenty of time.
0:12:08 > 0:12:12- SHE SOBS - Oh, my dear. Come on.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14It's all right.
0:12:14 > 0:12:15No, it's all right.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Marriage is a very big step.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20Brings up all sorts of feelings.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23- DOOR OPENS - Oh, beg your pardon.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27I've just seen the PCSO outside. I told them we'd had the window fixed.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29All right.
0:12:29 > 0:12:30I'll give you a moment.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35- And I've just seen the cat, disappearing into Dot's.- Oh, good.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39You're not that stressed about the wedding, are you?
0:12:39 > 0:12:41No.
0:12:43 > 0:12:44It's Steven.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Abi, he's really ill.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53- Right, I'll see you in a bit. - What are you up to?
0:12:53 > 0:12:55I'm going to give Jay someone to talk to.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04- No wonder you needed to get away. - Yeah, and I spoke to Mum a lot
0:13:04 > 0:13:06about how she felt when she had cancer
0:13:06 > 0:13:12and it's really helped me understand what Steven might be going through.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16- She didn't try and talk you out of the wedding, did she?- No.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20No, she... She's actually behind us 100%.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26I was even thinking about maybe trying for a baby with him.
0:13:29 > 0:13:30Are you serious?
0:13:32 > 0:13:35Why would you do that?
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Well, I took away the chance of him being a dad before, didn't I?
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Yeah, and you think that getting pregnant now
0:13:40 > 0:13:42will just solve everything?!
0:13:42 > 0:13:45If Steven knew that there was a chance that he could have a child,
0:13:45 > 0:13:48after he's gone, that would mean the world to him.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53So if I can give him that, then I will.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00- There you go.- Cheers.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03Nice to see a man who's not afraid to get his hands dirty.
0:14:03 > 0:14:07- Doing my bit, you know. Walford In Bloom.- Rough and rugged suits you.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10I'd only been in the army two weeks, then all of a sudden,
0:14:10 > 0:14:12they shipped us off to Egypt.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15- Thrown straight into it. - My brother was in the army -
0:14:15 > 0:14:19but he chose to be. I can't imagine what it's like to be conscripted.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Well, it wasn't all bad.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24I didn't get burgled while I was out there.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27What were you talking about with Denise earlier, anyway?
0:14:27 > 0:14:28Was it about the Towers?
0:14:29 > 0:14:31It's supposed to be confidential.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34- Well, you shouldn't be gossiping, then.- I wasn't gossiping.
0:14:34 > 0:14:35I was talking to a colleague.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Yeah, well, you've got the papers sniffing about.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40You've got to be careful.
0:14:40 > 0:14:44What are the council planning on telling them, anyway?
0:14:44 > 0:14:46I don't know. No comment, so far.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48Probably right.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51Don't want the bleeding heart liberals making a fuss, do you?
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Ordinary people were pushed out of their homes,
0:14:53 > 0:14:56so rich kids can move in. Maybe it's a good thing it comes out.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Don't say that out loud at work.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01- Lose your job. - What do you take me for?
0:15:11 > 0:15:13So... Phil send you over?
0:15:13 > 0:15:15No. I wanted to see you.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Look, Phil wasn't trying to hurt you.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22- Yeah, I should have known you'd try and defend him.- No, I'm not.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25- I'm defending my family. - This is Phil's doing.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28He stood back, watching me cut up over Jase, thinking he was my dad.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32- I mean, how sick is that? - It's not like that.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35- Phil's always done his best to look out for you.- Yeah, right.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38Phil gives with one hand and stabs you in the back with the other.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41- And I'm sick of it!- This hasn't been easy on Phil, either.
0:15:41 > 0:15:42You know, this morning,
0:15:42 > 0:15:45I found myself checking old hiding places for booze.
0:15:45 > 0:15:49He's not drinking, but if this stress gets to him, Jay...
0:15:49 > 0:15:53- Oh, so you ARE here for Phil!- Let's just forget about Phil, shall we?
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Thank you for coming round.
0:15:57 > 0:15:58Sounded important.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01Don't worry. Steven isn't here.
0:16:01 > 0:16:02Louie's having a nap.
0:16:05 > 0:16:06It's just us.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12It's good to see you.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Well, it's just a work thing, really.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17I'm still getting paid.
0:16:17 > 0:16:21I don't know whether you could do something about it.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24You could have just called HR, you know? Would have been quicker.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29Or did you want to see me?
0:16:30 > 0:16:32I just want to make sure it gets done.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36It's not like I'm going to be coming back.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41I don't understand. You like the job, you were doing well.
0:16:41 > 0:16:42Is this Steven's idea?
0:16:42 > 0:16:44- I know he feels threatened. - It's not like that!
0:16:44 > 0:16:47Well, convincing you to marry him is one thing -
0:16:47 > 0:16:48now you're giving up your independence!
0:16:48 > 0:16:51- I have to do this!- If this isn't what you want, then tell me.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53Maybe I can help.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05Steven isn't well.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11He's dying.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16He has a brain tumour...
0:17:16 > 0:17:18and there's nothing they can do.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24Oh, Lauren...
0:17:26 > 0:17:28I'm so sorry. I...
0:17:32 > 0:17:34How long does he have?
0:17:34 > 0:17:36They've given him, um... three months.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41So, obviously, I have to be there for him.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Everything else can wait.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46Yeah, course.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48Look, if there's anything...
0:17:51 > 0:17:52Even...
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Even after...
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Come here.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34I do have some idea of what you're going through.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Feeling like you never quite belong.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Doesn't completely go away.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44It's just... It's just my life could have been so different, you know?
0:18:44 > 0:18:48Those thoughts of what you could have had, Jay, they will eat you up.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51You know, there's people who care for you, you know,
0:18:51 > 0:18:53like your grandad.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Oh, yeah, when I see him(!)
0:18:55 > 0:18:58Well, if he knew you needed him, he'd be here...
0:18:58 > 0:19:00and Jase - he loved you.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Yeah...
0:19:04 > 0:19:06and he lied to me too, didn't he?
0:19:06 > 0:19:09Well, I think he tried to be the best dad he could.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Life is too hard to go it alone.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15Now, we might not be picture perfect, but we're your family.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17Don't shut us out.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33- Linda, will you just calm down? - Oh, look who's here.
0:19:35 > 0:19:36- Hey.- You all right?
0:19:36 > 0:19:39- You all right? Here you are. - Oh, Woody! Thanks!
0:19:39 > 0:19:43- I'll open it now. - Yeah. Smells nice, Shirl.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46Yeah, you got roast lamb, new potatoes, veg,
0:19:46 > 0:19:48and for afters, you've got a fresh fruit salad.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50Oh, can't wait.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Go on, then. Say it.
0:19:52 > 0:19:56Yeah, well, look, before we tuck in, I just wanted to say, um...
0:19:56 > 0:19:58you know, I'm not your favourite person round here,
0:19:58 > 0:20:02especially that... fight a few weeks ago...
0:20:02 > 0:20:04We just want to say we really appreciate this.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06It was hardly a fight, you know.
0:20:06 > 0:20:11I had too much to drink and... lunch was me mother's idea, so...
0:20:11 > 0:20:15Yeah, well, you're just looking out for your daughter-in-law, ain't you?
0:20:15 > 0:20:17- So, um, no hard feelings, mate. - Yeah, yeah.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21Aw, ain't you lucky you've got Woody looking after you now?
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Right, come on then, everyone.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25Sit down. Make yourselves comfortable.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35Right, I've got a bunch of volunteers to set up the stage,
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Fi's sorted out the food, so it's going to be great.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40You all right?
0:20:40 > 0:20:43I just had lunch with Max. Didn't go well.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45He wasn't himself.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49I was thinking, me and Martin are going to be really busy
0:20:49 > 0:20:52during Walford In Bloom, so I didn't know if you wanted to have Arthur.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55- Really?- Yeah, you can show him all our hard work.
0:20:55 > 0:20:57Aw! Thanks so much, Stace.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59- I'd love to.- Good.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08Sound Of Music is my favourite film.
0:21:08 > 0:21:13- I didn't like it before, but now I do.- What made you change your mind?
0:21:13 > 0:21:14- You.- Me?
0:21:14 > 0:21:17- Do you think you and Daddy will get married?- Married?
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Like Maria and the bossy daddy.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24- THEY GIGGLE - No, we're not getting married.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Don't you like Daddy? He's really handsome.
0:21:29 > 0:21:33- Yes, I do, but not...- Don't you like us, then?- No, of course I do...
0:21:33 > 0:21:37but I work for your daddy, and that's the way we both like it.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39OK?
0:21:39 > 0:21:42Carmel said you were a bit off with her earlier.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45- You didn't tell her it was Bradley's birthday, did you?- No.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49No, it's not the easiest thing to bring up.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Did you know Abi and Lauren forgot?
0:21:54 > 0:21:56How has it come to this?
0:21:56 > 0:21:58You know, a whole life and only you, me and his mum
0:21:58 > 0:21:59can spare him a thought on his birthday.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01It is just a date, Max.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04Don't mean they don't think about him or they don't care about him.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06He deserves better. He was a great kid.
0:22:11 > 0:22:12I didn't deserve him.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15- Oh, don't say that.- Well, it's true.
0:22:15 > 0:22:19You know, look at Abi and Lauren. They're just like me, selfish.
0:22:19 > 0:22:20Don't give a toss about anyone else.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Bradley was the best part of me.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28Well, he had his flaws, Max. He weren't perfect.
0:22:28 > 0:22:32He used to wind me right up, he'd plan every night out,
0:22:32 > 0:22:34right down to the last detail.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36He thought spontaneous was a dirty word.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Oh, don't be angry at Lauren and Abi, not for this.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45It's just how I feel.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47What about Carmel?
0:22:47 > 0:22:49She cares about you...
0:22:49 > 0:22:53and she ain't going to stick around if you push her away, is she?
0:22:54 > 0:22:55Is that what you want?
0:23:02 > 0:23:04So, um, how are the wedding plans going?
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Yeah, good.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14- Are you excited?- Yeah.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Yeah, I am.
0:23:16 > 0:23:20I just wanted to wait till the divorce gets sorted and that,
0:23:20 > 0:23:22- and then we'd put a deposit down... - LINDA CHUCKLES
0:23:24 > 0:23:27She's trying to make me sort out the theme. What's all that about, eh?
0:23:27 > 0:23:31- Don't ask me. - You love a theme party.- Me?
0:23:31 > 0:23:33Don't you remember that New Year's Eve years ago,
0:23:33 > 0:23:37- we did Guys And Dolls? You came as Al Capone!- Oh, yeah.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39You was a gangster's moll, weren't you?
0:23:39 > 0:23:41I had that shocking blonde wig on!
0:23:41 > 0:23:43I was supposed to be Roxie Hart!
0:23:43 > 0:23:46- Nah, you was much hotter than Roxie Hart, babe.- Aw!
0:23:46 > 0:23:48Do you know what?
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Actually, you should do stuff like that in the Vic.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54- You're good at it. - Aw! Thanks, darling!
0:23:54 > 0:23:57- Look at these two, eh? - A right double act, ain't they?
0:23:57 > 0:23:59LAUGHTER
0:24:01 > 0:24:03KNOCK AT DOOR
0:24:07 > 0:24:09LOUDER KNOCK
0:24:18 > 0:24:19Grandad!
0:24:19 > 0:24:22THEY GIGGLE
0:24:25 > 0:24:26Amy, Ricky.
0:24:28 > 0:24:33I have to go out. But when your dad comes down, give him this, OK?
0:24:33 > 0:24:35- It's very important. - Are you coming back?
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Hey, you're squeezing me!
0:24:44 > 0:24:46- OK, remember to give your dad the note, yeah?- OK.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55THEY GIGGLE
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Hey, buddy! Oh, I missed you so much!
0:25:06 > 0:25:08I'm glad you're both home.
0:25:08 > 0:25:09Hey.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14I'm really sorry for disappearing on you.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17Yeah, well, you're back now, ain't you?
0:25:17 > 0:25:19It was just a lot to take in.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22Lauren, it's OK.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24You say that, but...
0:25:26 > 0:25:28How are you feeling, anyway?
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Your headaches, are they getting any worse? Are you feeling tired?
0:25:31 > 0:25:34Well, the headaches come and go. It's nothing to worry about.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37Steven, you don't have to be brave for me.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39I'm going to be brave for you.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42I don't want you going through any of this on your own.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45Now that I'm back, there is something that we need to do.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49I know that we spoke about it before I left...
0:25:49 > 0:25:51I don't want to spend the time that I've got left
0:25:51 > 0:25:53with everyone feeling sorry for me.
0:25:53 > 0:25:57I know - but I get the chance to make your last few months special...
0:25:57 > 0:25:59and Ian and Jane, they deserve that, too.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02Look, I can't control the fact that I'm dying...
0:26:02 > 0:26:05- but I should be able to control how. - No.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07No, this is non-negotiable.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09I can't do this on my own -
0:26:09 > 0:26:12and I won't lie to them.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14So we're telling Ian and Jane tonight.
0:26:23 > 0:26:28So, where are you going to stop off on your big round-the-world trip?
0:26:28 > 0:26:30No, no. You want to stay here!
0:26:30 > 0:26:32That's the reason I love having you around so much.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35You're such a people person.
0:26:35 > 0:26:39- You're my special, special friend. - Aw, you're my special friend too.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42Everyone needs a little Woody! SHE GIGGLES
0:26:42 > 0:26:45You're a handful, Linda Carter, and I love it!
0:26:45 > 0:26:47Oi, oi. Keep your hands to yourself, won't you?
0:26:47 > 0:26:50No, don't you apologise.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52You leave Woody alone. He's done nothing wrong!
0:26:52 > 0:26:54- He ain't the one keeping secrets. - What are you on about?
0:26:54 > 0:26:56You've had too much wine.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57Here, get some water down you.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00- Stuff your water!- Linda! - I've had enough of your advice!
0:27:00 > 0:27:03- And I've had enough of your lies. - Slow down a bit, babe, yeah?
0:27:03 > 0:27:05- You'll have a sore head in the morning.- Oh, shut up, you!
0:27:05 > 0:27:08I've barely kept my lunch down, sitting here opposite
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Little Miss Butter Wouldn't Melt, when we all know what she is!
0:27:11 > 0:27:13Well, everyone except Woody.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16Well, I'm not going to let them make a fool out of you, like they did me.
0:27:16 > 0:27:20The whole time I was away, him and her were carrying on behind my back!
0:27:20 > 0:27:21Reckoned they were in love!
0:27:24 > 0:27:25And I reckon you still are!
