0:00:20 > 0:00:23Shafting us for a quick commission.

0:00:23 > 0:00:24He thinks we're pitched too high.

0:00:24 > 0:00:27He didn't say that when he was on the sofa eating my Battenberg.

0:00:27 > 0:00:28They sell loads of properties.

0:00:28 > 0:00:30They do if you sell 'em for buttons.

0:00:30 > 0:00:32Look, mate, it's normally a fiver.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35It's £6.20 on the meter mate and that's what it is, it's £6.20.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37I do this trip every night and it's a fiver at the most!

0:00:37 > 0:00:40Look, mate, I've had a long day, right, and I'm not in the mood.

0:00:40 > 0:00:44We've all had a long day, it's £5 normally and I'm not your mate!

0:00:44 > 0:00:46Don't give me that, mate, you said the best route.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48The best route, the cheapest route - it's the same thing!

0:00:48 > 0:00:50No, it's not. I cut out the traffic lights for you.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52You didn't do it for me, pal.

0:00:52 > 0:00:53You said get me there fast.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56Yeah, not rip me off for six quid.

0:00:56 > 0:00:57Huh?

0:00:57 > 0:01:00It's not silver, it's white gold as well.

0:01:00 > 0:01:01How much?

0:01:01 > 0:01:04It's a present. You wanted a bracelet, didn't you?

0:01:04 > 0:01:06I didn't want you to go out and buy one.

0:01:06 > 0:01:08What am I, a mind reader?! Come on, love.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10- Legalised robbery. - The meter's there.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13I didn't look at it, I didn't think I'd be going the tourist route!

0:01:13 > 0:01:14You could have said something.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16- RADIO CRACKLES LOUDLY - And shout over this noise?

0:01:16 > 0:01:19You're shouting your mouth off now, aren't you?!

0:01:19 > 0:01:21- They're the experts. - Experts!

0:01:21 > 0:01:23A bit of a kid with a mobile and a man bag.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26Marcus thinks in the current climate we have to be realistic.

0:01:26 > 0:01:27An estate agent,

0:01:27 > 0:01:29I'm not taking advice from some numpty called Marcus.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32- He can't help his name. - That's what they said about Judas.

0:01:32 > 0:01:33Listen to me!

0:01:33 > 0:01:36And he was cheaper, only 30 pieces of silver.

0:01:36 > 0:01:38Stop being so bloody-minded.

0:01:38 > 0:01:42Oh, here we go again. I thought you'd be pleased.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44It was a bargain.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46- Bargain? A £200 gas bill. - It'll get paid.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48- Take it back. - I can't.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51I can't.

0:01:51 > 0:01:52Get it off a bloke in a pub, did you?

0:01:52 > 0:01:55- Nice one, so that's what you think of me?- Keep your voice down.

0:01:55 > 0:01:59- Give the thing here, it's going in the bin. - Er, are you totally stupid?

0:01:59 > 0:02:03Take that and open the door. Go and overcharge somebody else!

0:02:03 > 0:02:06- No, I tell you what... - Open the door!

0:02:06 > 0:02:08- Shove it and get out. - What?

0:02:08 > 0:02:10Well, obviously you need the money more than I do.

0:02:10 > 0:02:11It's not about money.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14You're howling like a deranged parrot over £1.20.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17- It's about principles, this. - Exactly, mate, and I've got some.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19So I wouldn't rip off some sad prat on minimum wage.

0:02:19 > 0:02:20No, you're not having it.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24- It'll remind you what a stupid husband you've got. - I don't need a bracelet for that.

0:02:24 > 0:02:25You are an ungrateful cow.

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Don't slam the door!

0:02:27 > 0:02:30Eh, they only employ you cos you're cheaper than a guard dog.

0:02:30 > 0:02:32Oh, what about you, fantastic voyage!

0:02:32 > 0:02:34Here, go buy yourself a day saver.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37Oh, nice one, yeah. Take the long way home, why don't you!

0:02:39 > 0:02:41What did you say?

0:02:41 > 0:02:45Oh, nothing, mate, wouldn't waste my breath on a barmpot like you.

0:02:45 > 0:02:46Stop shouting!

0:02:46 > 0:02:48I don't need this. Get out me way.

0:03:25 > 0:03:26I did.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49Well, she is on the street.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55Oh, that poor girl.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58Do you think she's got enough flowers?

0:07:58 > 0:08:01Her world's been turned inside out.

0:08:03 > 0:08:07You can't begin to imagine what's going on in her head.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58I blame Princess Diana for all this nonsense.

0:10:58 > 0:11:03- Here, do this for me, will you, I haven't got me glasses. - Oh.

0:11:03 > 0:11:04Mmmm.

0:11:06 > 0:11:09He must come from one hell of a big family.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12Well, he might have lots of friends.

0:11:12 > 0:11:13Keep still then.

0:11:13 > 0:11:16- I might need a tetanus.- Oh.

0:11:16 > 0:11:17I could get lock jaw.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19Please, God!

0:11:19 > 0:11:21- It affects the brain, you know. - Does it?

0:11:21 > 0:11:24- You like inflicting pain. - I love it.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28You had a tetanus when you stood on that nail, you won't need another.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31Kathy from next door was leaving half a dozen Chrysanths.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Said she'd couldn't even remember speaking to him,

0:11:33 > 0:11:36- couldn't even remember what he looked like. - She told me the same.

0:11:36 > 0:11:38What's all that about then?

0:11:38 > 0:11:42People like to show their support. Do the right thing.

0:11:42 > 0:11:45There, all out.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47Have we bought flowers?

0:11:47 > 0:11:51A white rose cross. I felt we should.

0:11:51 > 0:11:55Besides, we can't be the only ones in the street that haven't.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57BANGS CUPBOARD DOOR SHUT

0:11:59 > 0:12:03OK, Marcus. Ah, what a shame.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06Mr Jones isn't coming.

0:12:07 > 0:12:11Hello, Marcus, little fella, is he, this Mr Jones?

0:12:11 > 0:12:13Got a baldy head?

0:12:13 > 0:12:17Tell him from me, will you, he hasn't got a flat tyre

0:12:17 > 0:12:20but he does have the worst suit I've ever seen in my life.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42Yoo-hoo.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47It looks like we're getting back to normal.

0:12:47 > 0:12:48Are we?

0:12:48 > 0:12:53I saw her, widow woman, removing the stuff from around the tree.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56Oh, did you?

0:12:58 > 0:13:01You said, once he was buried all this would stop.

0:13:01 > 0:13:04I was wrong.

0:13:04 > 0:13:05What?

0:13:05 > 0:13:08Only the dead flowers have been taken away.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10She's out there now, tying new ribbons and bows around it.

0:13:30 > 0:13:31They're lovely.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36We had these at our wedding. I don't know what they're called.

0:13:36 > 0:13:41Gypsophila, they last ages.

0:13:41 > 0:13:45I try to only get man colours, yellow or white, no pinks.

0:13:48 > 0:13:52I... I was just curious.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56Why don't you take them to the cemetery?

0:13:56 > 0:14:00Do you take flowers there as well, you don't mind me asking?

0:14:01 > 0:14:02He wasn't buried.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06Ryan was cremated.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11This was on holiday in Malaga.

0:14:11 > 0:14:13Right.

0:14:14 > 0:14:16We scattered his ashes last week.

0:14:16 > 0:14:19We would have done it earlier but you have to book.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21Book?

0:14:21 > 0:14:22With the football club.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25They allow a minister to say a few prayers

0:14:25 > 0:14:27then the groundsmen scatter them.

0:14:29 > 0:14:30It's what he wanted.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37It's going to be his birthday next week, he's 34.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48DOOR SLAMS

0:14:48 > 0:14:49He's been cremated.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51TOILET FLUSHES

0:14:51 > 0:14:53He's been cremated.

0:14:54 > 0:14:58Him, her husband, no grave, no headstone.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Not even a plaque or anything?

0:15:00 > 0:15:03Nothing. He's playing centre forward for the reds.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06I can't get a decent shot of the house

0:15:06 > 0:15:08without getting the tree and flowers in.

0:15:08 > 0:15:10Do you think it's discouraging buyers?

0:15:10 > 0:15:12They ask if the road's exceptionally dangerous.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15- Lethal if you walk across it without looking. - John!

0:15:15 > 0:15:17They ask how often people visit.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19We never even notice it's there.

0:15:19 > 0:15:21No?

0:15:21 > 0:15:23No.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25When buyers dream of a new home, they don't see wreaths.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27You don't say.

0:15:27 > 0:15:29I'd advise you to drop your price.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Oh, I see, because that'll make them feel less sad?

0:15:31 > 0:15:33John!

0:15:33 > 0:15:35I suppose getting it for a song

0:15:35 > 0:15:38will make them wreaths magically disappear.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40The photos will be on our website tonight.

0:15:40 > 0:15:41I'll be in touch.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58Do you always come after dark?

0:15:58 > 0:15:59Not always.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06I couldn't have stopped, you know that, don't you?

0:16:07 > 0:16:12Head and chest injuries consistent with being hit at 25 mph,

0:16:12 > 0:16:15they said that, they said that at the post-mortem.

0:16:18 > 0:16:21More to it than that, though, weren't there?

0:16:21 > 0:16:23It wouldn't have made any difference.

0:16:25 > 0:16:29You weren't speeding but... Well, your head wasn't right.

0:16:31 > 0:16:32And that was my fault.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37It was both of our faults.

0:16:37 > 0:16:41And what I said, to say that to another working man.

0:16:41 > 0:16:43I was out of order.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45I wound you up.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48Some shifts I don't even take home the minimum wage.

0:16:48 > 0:16:49You were right.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52Ah, no, we're all entitled to the same respect

0:16:52 > 0:16:54no matter what we earn.

0:16:54 > 0:16:55It's nothing to do with wages.

0:16:57 > 0:17:03I am a... sad prat. Petty.

0:17:03 > 0:17:05Me gob ran away with me and a man's dead.

0:17:13 > 0:17:16- Every time I walk past this tree... - Yeah, I know.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19The coroner said not to blame myself but...

0:17:22 > 0:17:28It's the small things that you do, that's what it's about in the end.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48I don't want to buy some cheap hovel that'll cost a fortune to fix up.

0:17:48 > 0:17:50CHEERING FROM OTHER ROOM

0:17:50 > 0:17:51Neither do I.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54Hopefully, we'll finish up with a bit of money in our back pockets.

0:17:54 > 0:17:59We can do things, decent holidays, sun, sand, sea and...

0:17:59 > 0:18:01And?

0:18:17 > 0:18:18Will you now?

0:18:24 > 0:18:25Knocking again.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43We have got to move.

0:20:46 > 0:20:49- Reduce the price of the house. - No.

0:20:49 > 0:20:50We have to.

0:20:50 > 0:20:52No. No.

0:20:55 > 0:20:57They'll be here any minute.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59You said that 20 minutes ago.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07Don't mention football or the government.

0:21:10 > 0:21:13Excuse me, could you put me some water in this,

0:21:13 > 0:21:15only I'd like to leave some flowers outside.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23- Right, that's it. - Where are you going? - Anywhere?

0:21:23 > 0:21:25- What if they turn up? - They won't.

0:21:25 > 0:21:26- They might come later. - Tough.

0:21:26 > 0:21:28- You can't just leave. - Watch me.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29I don't want your money.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32- It might help, for you and the girl. - I said no.

0:22:36 > 0:22:38It'll make me feel better.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42It wasn't your fault.

0:22:42 > 0:22:46That's what I keep thinking, I keep thinking that,

0:22:46 > 0:22:49keep saying to myself it wasn't my fault,

0:22:49 > 0:22:52only I can't bring myself to get in the taxi, I can't go to work.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54Leave me alone.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56- Take it, please. - I said, get away from me!

0:23:04 > 0:23:08OK, Marcus, thanks. Bye.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10They're coming at two o'clock.

0:23:10 > 0:23:12Forget it, there's no point.

0:23:12 > 0:23:15They take one look at that tree and don't even knock.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17We may as well take it off the market.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19We might find a buyer that doesn't mind.

0:23:19 > 0:23:23Soggy flowers, hymns outside the window,

0:23:23 > 0:23:24strangers knocking for water.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26I tell you I'd mind.

0:23:26 > 0:23:27It won't be there forever.

0:23:27 > 0:23:33When I spoke to her, she said he's going to be 34.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36And?

0:23:36 > 0:23:41Not he would have been 34, but he's going to be 34.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47Her head's messed up. I think she'll keep this going.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50They could be singing hymns round that tree when he's 54.

0:23:53 > 0:23:56What if...

0:23:56 > 0:23:57What if we...

0:23:57 > 0:23:59What?

0:24:00 > 0:24:03What if we moved the flowers and things.

0:24:03 > 0:24:05Just for a little while.

0:24:05 > 0:24:06We couldn't do that.

0:24:09 > 0:24:10No, you're right.

0:24:11 > 0:24:13No, we couldn't.

0:24:21 > 0:24:25You mean just until after the viewing?

0:24:27 > 0:24:31Bring everything inside. Then put it straight back.

0:24:31 > 0:24:33I don't know.

0:24:34 > 0:24:39These buyers whizz around, they're in and out in five minutes.

0:24:39 > 0:24:43Even the slow ones barely make ten.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48I suppose it would hurt if she didn't know.

0:24:48 > 0:24:49She won't know.

0:24:51 > 0:24:53We do need to sell.

0:24:53 > 0:24:54Can't go on like this.

0:24:54 > 0:24:55You're not kidding.

0:25:03 > 0:25:05Maybe we should forget it.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13Mr and Mrs Mason.

0:26:19 > 0:26:23This is the master bedroom.

0:26:23 > 0:26:25It's a good size.

0:26:25 > 0:26:29The fitted wardrobes are included.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31Is it not noisy sleeping at the front?

0:26:31 > 0:26:35No, we sleep very well. It's a very... quiet... street.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40Hey!

0:26:41 > 0:26:44Now the kitchen is lovely and bright.

0:26:44 > 0:26:45Is this the living room?

0:26:47 > 0:26:49Oh, it's lovely and bright.

0:26:49 > 0:26:51I don't understand.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53Is it south facing?

0:26:53 > 0:26:54We get the sun in the afternoon.

0:26:54 > 0:26:56We recently decorated in here.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58Are you leaving the carpets?

0:26:58 > 0:27:00MUFFLED NOISES OUTSIDE

0:27:00 > 0:27:02That's a gas fire behind there, is it?

0:27:02 > 0:27:06- Have you seen, somebody's moved all the stuff...- Calm down, calm down.

0:27:06 > 0:27:10It's gone, it doesn't make any sense! Why would someone move it...

0:27:10 > 0:27:12Carpets, yes.

0:27:12 > 0:27:15Sorry, is this a gas fire?

0:27:15 > 0:27:19Yeah. It's very warm when it's on.

0:27:19 > 0:27:21And the neighbours, what are your neighbours like?

0:27:21 > 0:27:24- Our neighbours are... - Very quiet.

0:27:26 > 0:27:29They keep themselves to themselves, very quiet. We hardly ever see them.

0:27:29 > 0:27:32SHOUTING AND CRYING OUTSIDE

0:27:32 > 0:27:34I do like it. And it's in a nice area.

0:27:34 > 0:27:35John!

0:27:35 > 0:27:36- Well thank you for coming. - Carol!

0:27:36 > 0:27:39- I hope to see you again soon. - Did you see anything?

0:27:39 > 0:27:40Is everything all right?

0:27:40 > 0:27:42Some low life scum's stolen everything.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44I hadn't realised everything had disappeared.

0:27:44 > 0:27:46I can't believe it. I mean, what goes through their heads?

0:27:46 > 0:27:48I bet it's those kids that hang around.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51- I'd like to get my hands on 'em. - Look, don't worry about this,

0:27:51 > 0:27:54you've got enough to worry about without all this. Come on.

0:27:54 > 0:27:56Why can't people show some respect?

0:27:56 > 0:27:57Try not to upset yourself.

0:27:57 > 0:28:00You're best not dwelling on it. You've got enough to worry about.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02- It wasn't hurting anyone, was it? - No.

0:28:02 > 0:28:03- Course not.- No.

0:28:03 > 0:28:04It won't happen again.

0:28:04 > 0:28:07I'll nail his photos to the wood

0:28:07 > 0:28:10and I'll tie the flowers on with barbed wire.

0:28:10 > 0:28:14I hope their thieving hands fall off!

0:28:14 > 0:28:17SHE SOBS

0:28:17 > 0:28:19# They smile in your face

0:28:19 > 0:28:21# All the time they want to take your place

0:28:21 > 0:28:23# The backstabbers

0:28:23 > 0:28:25# Backstabbers

0:28:25 > 0:28:26# They smile in your face

0:28:26 > 0:28:29# All the time they want to take your place

0:28:29 > 0:28:30# The backstabbers... #

0:28:42 > 0:28:45How selfish are we?

0:28:45 > 0:28:47We're good people.

0:28:48 > 0:28:51And you compared the estate agent to Judas Iscariot.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54Ten minutes later and she would have been none the wiser.

0:28:54 > 0:28:57She's been back and forth all evening.

0:28:58 > 0:29:01New flowers, more photographs,

0:29:01 > 0:29:02pushing that little one.

0:29:04 > 0:29:06- She's not still out there, is she? - She's not, no.

0:29:10 > 0:29:12Let's reduce the price again.

0:29:12 > 0:29:15- Be sensible, Carol. - Oh yes, sensible.

0:29:15 > 0:29:18Look, it's not my fault Molly Moos' husband got killed.

0:29:18 > 0:29:20If we hadn't priced too high,

0:29:20 > 0:29:22we'd have sold before that accident happened.

0:29:22 > 0:29:24And you blame me?

0:29:24 > 0:29:26We can't go any lower.

0:29:26 > 0:29:28I want to leave the kids something worth having.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32We're never going to sell this house, are we?

0:29:36 > 0:29:39He was out there again from down the road.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42He's always flaming there, they weren't related, were they?

0:29:42 > 0:29:45I don't know.

0:29:45 > 0:29:50Perhaps they were good friends or maybe he just feels... you know.

0:29:52 > 0:29:56I suppose that's what people do these days.

0:29:56 > 0:29:58Normal people bury their dead,

0:29:58 > 0:30:01buy a headstone and put flowers on it.

0:30:01 > 0:30:04They do not decorate trees on pavements, light candles

0:30:04 > 0:30:05and sing hymns.

0:30:13 > 0:30:14I can't look her in the eye.

0:30:14 > 0:30:15I know.

0:30:17 > 0:30:19What are we going to do?

0:30:19 > 0:30:20We'll tell her tonight.

0:30:20 > 0:30:21And then?

0:30:21 > 0:30:24I don't know, we could go out for tea.

0:30:24 > 0:30:28I mean, we've slashed the price of the house,

0:30:28 > 0:30:31we have a dead man's flowers in a bin bag in our hall,

0:30:31 > 0:30:35we've broken that poor girl's heart and we're still no closer to moving.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40What are we going to do?

0:30:40 > 0:30:45We're not criminals. We'll explain, apologise, it'll be fine.

0:30:45 > 0:30:47Drive!

0:30:58 > 0:30:59I want it back.

0:30:59 > 0:31:01- Sorry?- I know it was you.

0:31:02 > 0:31:05You'll have to help me here, I haven't had my second cup of tea yet...

0:31:05 > 0:31:07I want his scarf, he'd worn it, it smelt of him.

0:31:07 > 0:31:08Scarf?

0:31:08 > 0:31:10It was you. You took Ryan's things.

0:31:10 > 0:31:12Eh, whoa, hang on a minute!

0:31:12 > 0:31:13I've been thinking about it.

0:31:13 > 0:31:15I wouldn't do that.

0:31:15 > 0:31:16I want the scarf and the photos.

0:31:16 > 0:31:18I haven't taken anything.

0:31:18 > 0:31:22It's making you feel bad about yourself, that's what you said!

0:31:23 > 0:31:26Look, let go, Sarah. Let go, Sarah.

0:31:26 > 0:31:28It wasn't me.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37It was them.

0:31:37 > 0:31:38Them?

0:31:38 > 0:31:39Next to it...

0:31:39 > 0:31:41Carol and him... John.

0:31:42 > 0:31:43You're lying.

0:31:43 > 0:31:46I saw them. He cut the ribbons.

0:31:48 > 0:31:50And you never told me?

0:31:54 > 0:31:58Look, to be honest with you...

0:31:58 > 0:31:59it was kind of a relief.

0:32:34 > 0:32:37You took the things down.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39You removed my dead husband's photographs.

0:32:42 > 0:32:44Only while someone came to view our house.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46We never meant to hurt you.

0:32:46 > 0:32:48You didn't even put them back.

0:32:48 > 0:32:50- We were going to. - I don't believe you.

0:32:50 > 0:32:53You wanted me to think it had been vandalised?!

0:32:53 > 0:32:54Hoping it would put me

0:32:54 > 0:32:57off because it's interfering with your little lives.

0:32:57 > 0:32:59Maybe we should all go inside?

0:32:59 > 0:33:01Don't want everyone to know what selfish people you are?

0:33:01 > 0:33:02There's no need for that.

0:33:02 > 0:33:04We were going to tell you tonight.

0:33:04 > 0:33:05Of course you were.

0:33:05 > 0:33:08You can't keep a memorial there for ever.

0:33:08 > 0:33:10You stood there and watched me cry.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16On the day that my Ryan died,

0:33:16 > 0:33:20you were the only person that gave me any thread of comfort.

0:33:21 > 0:33:26In that nightmare, I clung onto what you said...

0:33:26 > 0:33:28"He died instantly,"

0:33:28 > 0:33:30you said, "he didn't feel a thing."

0:33:30 > 0:33:35Now I know you're a liar, I can't trust anything you've said.

0:33:35 > 0:33:36We understand, but...

0:33:36 > 0:33:39You don't, no-one does.

0:33:39 > 0:33:43No warning, no time to say goodbye.

0:33:47 > 0:33:51It's a violent, horrible, unnatural end and it happened here,

0:33:51 > 0:33:53in front of you.

0:33:53 > 0:33:57A good man died, right here, and that's worth marking.

0:34:01 > 0:34:07You want me to keep my grief hidden, to go away, put it in a box,

0:34:07 > 0:34:09just so you can keep the street tidy?

0:34:10 > 0:34:12Well, I won't.

0:34:16 > 0:34:21Every flower, every photograph, every candle tells me

0:34:21 > 0:34:23that people haven't forgotten about him.

0:34:24 > 0:34:27And I want my little girl to grow up and see that.

0:34:31 > 0:34:34You asked if there was anything you could do for me, remember?

0:34:40 > 0:34:41Don't speak to me again.

0:35:01 > 0:35:03WOMAN CRYING

0:35:03 > 0:35:04Oh, John!

0:35:27 > 0:35:29BABY GURGLES

0:36:04 > 0:36:08If you want your photographs you'll have to talk to me.

0:36:24 > 0:36:27I suggested taking the things away.

0:36:27 > 0:36:29It was my fault, not John's.

0:36:31 > 0:36:32I'm sorry.

0:36:32 > 0:36:34You should have spoken to me.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36I know, but you wouldn't have listened.

0:36:36 > 0:36:38Your life revolves around that piece of wood.

0:36:38 > 0:36:40You don't understand.

0:36:40 > 0:36:41No, I don't.

0:36:43 > 0:36:45I've watched you,

0:36:45 > 0:36:49you spend more time standing there than you do with your child.

0:36:49 > 0:36:50That's a terrible thing to say.

0:36:50 > 0:36:55I have tried to be sympathetic, to put myself in your shoes,

0:36:55 > 0:36:58I've tried but I can't anymore.

0:36:58 > 0:37:00What's wrong with wanting to remember him?

0:37:00 > 0:37:02We remember in our hearts...

0:37:04 > 0:37:07not because we decorate the pavement.

0:37:07 > 0:37:09I need to look out and see that tree.

0:37:09 > 0:37:11We don't want it chopped down.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22I'm sorry.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24We argued.

0:37:27 > 0:37:30He walked in front of that car because we were arguing.

0:37:34 > 0:37:36Me and John argue all the time.

0:37:39 > 0:37:42It's a dreadful thought that we could...

0:37:42 > 0:37:45part on bad terms...

0:37:45 > 0:37:47but we're human, people argue.

0:37:47 > 0:37:50You can't tread on eggshells.

0:37:50 > 0:37:53Do you know the last thing I said to him?

0:37:53 > 0:37:55Grow up.

0:37:57 > 0:38:00No matter what was in his head at that moment your husband knew

0:38:00 > 0:38:02that you loved him.

0:38:06 > 0:38:08I need to see that tree.

0:38:08 > 0:38:10It reminds me what an ungrateful cow I am.

0:38:10 > 0:38:12It reminds you of the pain of the argument.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14He wouldn't have wanted that.

0:38:29 > 0:38:31It was an accident, Sarah.
