0:00:11 > 0:00:13- What are you doing? - I need a clean shirt.
0:00:13 > 0:00:15- These are your best ones.- So?
0:00:15 > 0:00:17- For the holiday.- It's snooker night.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19- Have you looked in your wardrobe? - It saves me going back up.
0:00:19 > 0:00:22- When are you going to get those cases down?- We're not going for a week.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25I want to put all the clothes I've ironed away
0:00:25 > 0:00:27or you lot will wear them and they'll need doing again.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29- Have you seen my tablet, Mum? - It's there.
0:00:29 > 0:00:32Oi, what are you doing? I was watching that.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35What about euros, have you sorted that yet?
0:00:35 > 0:00:36Tomorrow after the hospital.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40My knee. Hopefully it's the last time.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43Oh, right, good.
0:00:43 > 0:00:44Will you get me some euros as well, Mum?
0:00:44 > 0:00:46Yes, if you give me some cash.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Just get us 100, I'll see you right later on.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51Yes, I'll get them as long as you give me the money back.
0:00:51 > 0:00:52All right. All right.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54You're not really watching this, are you?
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Yes, I am. Will you leave it, please?
0:00:57 > 0:00:58See you later.
0:01:17 > 0:01:22# The storm is coming
0:01:22 > 0:01:27# But I don't mind... #
0:01:30 > 0:01:31What's wrong?
0:01:31 > 0:01:34Nothing. I've been discharged. All's well. My knee's fine.
0:01:34 > 0:01:35So why so glum?
0:01:37 > 0:01:39Stupid, isn't it? But I've enjoyed my link with this place.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41A hospital?
0:01:41 > 0:01:42A private hospital.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46You don't have to stop seeing me just cos they've signed you off.
0:01:46 > 0:01:50But I've enjoyed coming here. The whole experience.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- A knee operation? - Not that, the rest.
0:01:53 > 0:01:54Most people would be...
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Yeah, relieved, of course they would. No more appointments.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00What, you're laughing at me?
0:02:00 > 0:02:01Yes, I am.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Well, stop it.
0:02:03 > 0:02:09You have a new knee, a new friend and no more appointments.
0:02:09 > 0:02:10Rejoice.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Not so much a new friend nowadays.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15An old friend and...
0:02:18 > 0:02:19..I have a present.
0:02:22 > 0:02:23Duncan, what...?
0:02:24 > 0:02:27- But why?- Our anniversary.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30- Is it? - A year to the day since we met.
0:02:30 > 0:02:31- No, it isn't, is it?- Yes, it is.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37This is...an unexpected choice.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Read it and enjoy.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48- I don't get it.- What?- All the time.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50He could be with me playing snooker.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52He won't even fill the membership forms in.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54I will. Get on to our Steve.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56I have to accept I'm losing him to women.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58I want to teach you before you do the same.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00- Perhaps he doesn't even like snooker. - After the holiday.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03And at Christmas, we can win the father-son competition.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06- I know, I know. You've said. - You were getting good last year.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09Better than the year before, better than the year before that.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12How many people do you know have a friend with a hotel abroad?
0:03:12 > 0:03:14- And we go other places. - Yeah, sometimes.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17It's good for our Paul's studies this year
0:03:17 > 0:03:19and Stephen's pursuit of exotic foreign women.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23- Who?- Mike's daughter, Rachel. - She's British.
0:03:23 > 0:03:24Yeah, but she lives in Belgium.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26Mum, the potatoes are boiling over.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Yeah, all right, love, I'm coming.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30'Scuse me.
0:03:34 > 0:03:38- Hiya.- Hiya. Table for two, please. - Yeah, just this way.- Thank you.
0:03:40 > 0:03:44- You've got no idea.- It's two weeks holiday. That can't be bad.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Your idea of a holiday and what I go through
0:03:46 > 0:03:48are two completely different things.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50What would you call a holiday, then?
0:03:50 > 0:03:51A tour of Italy.
0:03:51 > 0:03:56Rome, Florence, Bologna, ending up at an opera in Milan.
0:03:58 > 0:03:59You'd like an opera?
0:03:59 > 0:04:02I'd like the chance to find out. Nothing heavy.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Carmen. I'd like that.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06Yes, I think that'd suit you.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08But you don't have to go to Milan.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10We'll try and arrange something.
0:04:10 > 0:04:11That would be great.
0:04:11 > 0:04:15And maybe we could also arrange that elusive night together at last.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18Maybe you wouldn't like waking up with me in the morning.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20I'd like a chance to find out.
0:04:27 > 0:04:32Meanwhile, it's First World War battlefields.
0:04:32 > 0:04:33You'll enjoy it.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35You have got no idea.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38I've been to Belgium and I like it.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Antwerp? Ghent? Bruges?
0:04:40 > 0:04:43Exactly. Beautiful places.
0:04:43 > 0:04:48Great beer, good restaurants, galleries, museums, cathedrals.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52Yeah. We're staying at Ypres...where we always stay.
0:04:52 > 0:04:53Nice hotel?
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Owned by Mike, a mate of Derek's.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58An ex-British soldier who caters for British tourists
0:04:58 > 0:05:00who want British food and beer.
0:05:00 > 0:05:01- Oh!- Yeah.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04We'll be spending most evenings at the Menin Gate
0:05:04 > 0:05:05honouring the war dead.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Not that we shouldn't do that but...
0:05:08 > 0:05:10You'll get through it. You have in the past.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Yeah, but I didn't have you to miss in the past.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15Can we can see each other one more time before I go?
0:05:15 > 0:05:17I will do my best.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25What are you looking for?
0:05:25 > 0:05:27My economics journal. Someone must have moved it.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Side of the bath. Come on, Paul.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33I need you out of the house in one minute or you're going to be late.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35- Can you give me a lift, Dad?- No.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37- Will you drop me off, Dad? - Oh, all right.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40- If you're giving him a lift... - If we go now...
0:05:40 > 0:05:43- See you, Mum.- Bye, love.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46- See you, love.- Bye.- Have a good day.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06PHONE RINGS
0:06:21 > 0:06:23- Would you like another coffee? - Oh, no, thanks.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41'This is Duncan Marswell. Please leave a message.'
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Hi, it's me. Where are you?
0:06:47 > 0:06:50What's happened? I'm going to go home.
0:07:02 > 0:07:09- It's called feint and go.- No.- It's real.- Go on, then.- 15 million views.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- ON TELEVISION:- 'On the A57 approaching the M62,
0:07:25 > 0:07:29'the driver of a vintage Austin Healey, Duncan Edmund Marswell,
0:07:29 > 0:07:32'a local solicitor, was killed outright
0:07:32 > 0:07:36'when his car ran into the rear of a wagon and trailer.'
0:07:43 > 0:07:45I...I'm just going to go and lie down.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49- What's up?- My knee.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51I'll get my pain killers.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Paul, sort the tea out, will you?
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Why can't we just send out for pizzas or something?
0:08:37 > 0:08:39Because we did that last night.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Got to be something here. What is there?
0:08:43 > 0:08:47- Eggs, cheese, sauces, beer, milk, that's about it.- This is crazy.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51I know your mum didn't want to leave a lot in but we've got to eat.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55Phone for an Indian or a Chinese if you don't want a pizza.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57We'll have to. I'll talk to your mum.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59We'll have to take stuff with us.
0:08:59 > 0:09:00- What like?- Sandwiches and that.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02You can buy them on the motorway.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04You have no idea how much things cost, have you?
0:09:04 > 0:09:08There are supermarkets at service stations. Same as round here.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10You'll have a lot to learn in the great big world.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Will I? I'll come back here for food and bring my washing.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15- Oh, will you, yeah?- Yeah.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16I'll go and see how your mum is.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Oh, Dad, take her a cup of tea.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Will you ask her where my passport is as well?
0:09:21 > 0:09:22You are joking.
0:09:35 > 0:09:36Any better?
0:09:41 > 0:09:43Listen, love, I know how bad your knee's been
0:09:43 > 0:09:46and what a serious operation you've had.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48I mean, Napper from work had it done.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51He's hard as nails and he said it brought tears to his eyes
0:09:51 > 0:09:53so I know what you're going through...
0:09:55 > 0:09:58..but we go away tomorrow and there's still loads to be done.
0:10:00 > 0:10:01I'll get up soon.
0:10:01 > 0:10:06- FADING INTO BACKGROUND:- I'd pack the rest of the stuff but that's what you do.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08I'll go shopping for things for the journey.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10You need to give me a list.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13I've done the car, it's all sorted.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17If you could just get up, Helen.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19You won't have to walk about a lot.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Oh, and our Stephen can't find his passport.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39How long have I been telling you to look for it?
0:10:39 > 0:10:42- I thought I knew where it was. - You don't need it.- Course I do.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44We're in the EU. Freedom of movement and all that.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- Paul... Is that right, Mum? - I don't know. I'm not sure.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Right, you need positive identification
0:10:49 > 0:10:52but it doesn't have to be your passport.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55- Where have you looked for it? - Everywhere.- Everywhere?
0:10:55 > 0:10:5712 months planning this. You can't go.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59That's your cool and rational response?
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Why you getting onto me? It's him that can't look after his kit.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04I'm the one who has to think through everything.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07You could stick anything up at the car window going on
0:11:07 > 0:11:08and coming off the ferry.
0:11:08 > 0:11:12Nobody cares. Don't worry about a passport.
0:11:12 > 0:11:13That is not helping. Paul.
0:11:13 > 0:11:14Last minute, as ever.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Stephen, will you think about when you last had it?
0:11:20 > 0:11:22- That is not helping. - All right, all right.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25- Use your brain, Stephen. - There's no need to shout, is there?
0:11:26 > 0:11:28- Stephen, think.- I don't know.
0:11:28 > 0:11:3012 months he's had to look for it.
0:11:30 > 0:11:31I'm telling you, you don't need it.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34Derek, Paul, will you leave now, please?
0:11:34 > 0:11:35- Stephen.- Mum, did you wash that blue shirt?
0:11:35 > 0:11:38- Yes, it's in the case. - And the cords, thin ones?
0:11:38 > 0:11:39Yes, I've packed it.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44- Stephen, now, will you think about what your passport looks like?- Why?
0:11:44 > 0:11:49It helps. Think about what it looks like, what it feels like.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51- Think.- I'm thinking.
0:11:55 > 0:11:59I wore my suit when I went on that do with Cary.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02And I took my passport out for ID.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04And that's the last time you wore it?
0:12:06 > 0:12:07That's it.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18MUSIC: Can't Help Falling In Love
0:12:18 > 0:12:20Whoa, whoa, I don't think so.
0:12:20 > 0:12:21Why do you always get the front seat?
0:12:21 > 0:12:24- I'm oldest. It's the rules. - Where's your mother?
0:12:24 > 0:12:27Late for everything.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Every single time. It's typical.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33Helen, come on, love, we're going to miss the boat.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Chop chop.
0:12:37 > 0:12:44# Falling in love with you
0:12:46 > 0:12:50# Shall I stay?
0:12:52 > 0:12:57# Would it be a sin?
0:12:57 > 0:13:04# Oh, I can't help
0:13:04 > 0:13:10# Falling in love you... #
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Put a CD on. There are some in the glove box.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15- I'm not listening to any of that. - I've got good taste in music.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18I'm saying this as someone who cares, Dad.
0:13:18 > 0:13:23# Surely to the sea Darling, so it goes
0:13:23 > 0:13:28# Some things are meant to be... #
0:13:28 > 0:13:31- Can you read what that sign says? - How would I know?
0:13:31 > 0:13:34- What's that French GCSE for? - That's Flemish!
0:13:37 > 0:13:43# And take my whole life too... #
0:13:43 > 0:13:46And there, on your left, you can see the Menin Gate.
0:13:46 > 0:13:50He died in 1921. The memorial...
0:13:50 > 0:13:52Don't joke around. Have some respect.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56INAUDIBLE
0:13:56 > 0:13:59- How long until we get to the ferry? - A couple of hours.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02- Better put your foot down, Dad. - We'll get there in plenty of time.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08"The victim was brought out from a shed
0:14:08 > 0:14:11"and led struggling to a chair to which he was then bound
0:14:11 > 0:14:15"and a white handkerchief placed over his heart as our target area."
0:14:15 > 0:14:19# So won't you please just
0:14:20 > 0:14:26# Take my hand
0:14:28 > 0:14:33# And take my whole life too... #
0:14:33 > 0:14:38- Paul, sort the tea out, will you? - Why me? Why can't Stephen do it?
0:14:38 > 0:14:40- Oi, one minute.- Just do it.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43# Falling in love
0:14:43 > 0:14:51# I keep falling in love with you. #
0:14:55 > 0:14:57Who's up for a cheeky pizza? I'm starving.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Yeah, me too. Eh, Dad, listen to this, right?
0:14:59 > 0:15:01On this day, in this battle, it's reckoned the Allies
0:15:01 > 0:15:04gained a quarter of an inch of land for every dead soldier.
0:15:04 > 0:15:05A quarter of an inch!
0:15:05 > 0:15:07They probably lost it the following day
0:15:07 > 0:15:11- with the Germans losing thousands. - Can we change the subject, please?
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Death. I'm sick of hearing of it. We've had two weeks of it.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16We've been visiting war graves, what do you expect?
0:15:16 > 0:15:17At least we've been away.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Will you take these cases up before we eat, please?
0:15:19 > 0:15:24Pity we didn't get to Broodseinde Ridge, you might have liked it.
0:15:24 > 0:15:25- No, must be a scam.- What's that?
0:15:25 > 0:15:28This might be one death your mum does want to know about.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30What do you mean?
0:15:30 > 0:15:34It says here somebody's died and you're the beneficiary in a will.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36- How much? - What are you talking about?
0:15:36 > 0:15:39- You have to call the solicitors. - How much, Mum?
0:15:39 > 0:15:42Oh, it'll be a scam. 20 billion locked into an account.
0:15:42 > 0:15:43Let me see that.
0:15:45 > 0:15:46It's addressed to me.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48Never mind that. How many millions have you been left?
0:15:48 > 0:15:51- It'll just be a waste of time. - That's a local firm.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53- Let me have a look at it again. - You shouldn't be opening my mail.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Helen, since when have you been bothered?
0:15:55 > 0:15:58I never open stuff I know is from the doctors.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00- It's just a letter. - Just put it in the bin, then.
0:16:00 > 0:16:01No, let me have another look.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08It's from Branding, Marswell and Freeman.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10They're in town, then.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13It definitely says you are the beneficiary of a will.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Maybe a long-lost relative or something, Mum.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18It's says contact them as soon as... There's a number.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20- Does anyone want a drink? - It'll only take a minute.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Don't give them bank details.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Shall we leave it now? I'm really tired.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26You were asleep half the way home. Use my mobile.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30- It's ringing. - Derek, what are you doing? Derek!
0:16:30 > 0:16:31Come on.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33- PHONE RINGS - Thank you.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39Branding, Marswell and Freeman, Lauren speaking. How may I help you?
0:16:39 > 0:16:41- Um...- Go on.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Sorry... I think I've...
0:16:44 > 0:16:46..got the wrong number.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48Oh. Hi. I'm speaking on behalf of my wife, Helen Lincoln.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51She received a letter asking her to contact you
0:16:51 > 0:16:53regarding being left something in a will.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55Yes, but I'm afraid I can only discuss that
0:16:55 > 0:16:56with the recipient of the letter.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58You mean my wife, Helen?
0:16:58 > 0:17:01- Yes, if she'd like to contact me. - She's here.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03Go on.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05(How much? How much? Ask them how much it is.)
0:17:05 > 0:17:07- Hello.- 'Mrs. Helen Lincoln?'
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Speaking.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12'Would you like to discuss this matter now
0:17:12 > 0:17:13'or come in to the office?'
0:17:13 > 0:17:17- Er...well...- Now!- I'd rather..
0:17:17 > 0:17:18It's a...
0:17:22 > 0:17:24Now, please.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27'Mrs Lincoln, you have been left £50,000
0:17:27 > 0:17:31'by the recently deceased Duncan Edmund Marswell.'
0:18:27 > 0:18:28Why you, Helen?
0:18:33 > 0:18:35I don't know. Still think it's some kind of mistake.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37How could anybody make a mistake like that?
0:18:37 > 0:18:40Somebody with the same name.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44It's from a solicitor's office. They don't make mistakes like that.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46That woman Lauren was certain it was meant for you.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48How many times do I have to tell you?
0:18:48 > 0:18:50I don't know the man.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Maybe you don't know you met him.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Think. Did you ever help somebody
0:18:54 > 0:18:56or do a good deed that you might have forgotten about?
0:18:56 > 0:18:57No.
0:18:57 > 0:19:02It's not meant for me. Let's just forget about it.
0:19:02 > 0:19:03So, that's what you're saying?
0:19:03 > 0:19:06You're just going to do nothing about it?
0:19:06 > 0:19:07That's what I'm saying.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12- This is all wrong, Helen. - Yeah, exactly.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15No. There's something very wrong about this.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19- You know more than you're saying. - What do you mean?
0:19:20 > 0:19:22There's something you're not telling me.
0:19:22 > 0:19:23No, there isn't.
0:19:37 > 0:19:38You knew him.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40I told you I didn't.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14All right, Dad?
0:20:16 > 0:20:17What are you up to?
0:20:19 > 0:20:22Is that the bloke who might have left Mum the money?
0:20:22 > 0:20:24It's complicated.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26But he has left her 50 grand?
0:20:26 > 0:20:29I'm trying to get to the bottom of it.
0:20:29 > 0:20:3150 grand, 50 grand! We're rich!
0:20:31 > 0:20:33Like I said, it's complicated.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35She must have known him, obviously.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37I don't know. There's a lot of things I don't know.
0:20:39 > 0:20:40We'll sort it out tomorrow.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46- Night, big man.- Good night.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52What do you reckon about me getting a motorbike?
0:20:52 > 0:20:56- A motorbike?- Good for my education.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59It'll be easier for me to get to college.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01It takes me ages now if you don't drop me off.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03- Have you got the money? - No, but I reckon I will have.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Go to bed. And don't be spending what you haven't got.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18DOOR OPENS
0:21:27 > 0:21:29I know you're not asleep.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32This isn't going to go away.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35We're going to wake up in the morning
0:21:35 > 0:21:37and that letter will still be there.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38You need to tell the truth.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46- You knew him, didn't you?- Yeah.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48No more lies.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56I met him at the hospital.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59I didn't tell you because I knew you'd take it the wrong way.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01And what's the right way?
0:22:02 > 0:22:06Which way should I take it, Helen, when a man leaves my wife a fortune?
0:22:15 > 0:22:16He was private and I was NHS.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18I wouldn't have met him otherwise.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22Our appointments clashed and we just got on, that's all.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26You must have got on pretty well to be left a fortune in his will.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28What, you just saw him at the hospital?
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Yeah. Where else do you think?
0:22:32 > 0:22:35- Was he married?- No.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39He was just a nice man, that's all.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43That's not enough. A solicitor, a rich man.
0:22:43 > 0:22:44What did he want to talk to you about?
0:22:44 > 0:22:47- Why shouldn't he want to talk to me? - Yeah, well, what about?
0:22:47 > 0:22:50- Music, classical music.- What do you know about classical music?
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Nothing. That is the whole point. I wanted to learn.
0:22:58 > 0:23:02We were in the waiting room waiting for the specialist
0:23:02 > 0:23:05and there was some nice music playing
0:23:05 > 0:23:10and I asked him what it was and he told me and we got talking.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13And from that, he left you £50,000?
0:23:13 > 0:23:16This is just as much of a shock to me, Derek.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19How many times did you meet him?
0:23:19 > 0:23:20At the hospital?
0:23:20 > 0:23:23I meant at the hospital. You met him outside?
0:23:23 > 0:23:25No.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28So why did you say "hospital?"
0:23:28 > 0:23:30We just met for coffee quite openly.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33He thought it was odd that I hadn't told you.
0:23:33 > 0:23:34Well, I think he's odd if he thinks
0:23:34 > 0:23:38I'd go along with my wife...my wife having coffee with another bloke.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41This is exactly why I didn't tell you, Derek.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45In his circles, people have friends of the opposite sex...friends.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47- Just people like you... - What, like me?
0:23:47 > 0:23:50You think I'm odd because I don't want my wife seeing other men?
0:23:50 > 0:23:52- Oh, my God. - KNOCK AT DOOR
0:23:52 > 0:23:54- What?- What's going on?
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Nothing. Go to bed.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58- It's all right, love. Everything's fine.- Night.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07We'll talk about this in the morning.
0:24:07 > 0:24:08We'll talk about this now.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11There's no point talking to you when you're like this. Not now.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16I'll talk to you after I've been to the solicitors.
0:24:16 > 0:24:17To do what?
0:24:18 > 0:24:21To tell them I'm not accepting the money.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53This can't be the family that's just got 50 grand.
0:24:53 > 0:24:57We should be celebrating - you know, party poppers and that.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Not now, Paul.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03What? So it was a scam or a joke?
0:25:03 > 0:25:06Will somebody please just tell me what's going on?
0:25:06 > 0:25:09We'll talk about it when your mum and me have sorted it out.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12Can I just ask - are we 50 grand better off or not?
0:25:12 > 0:25:14Not. Finish your breakfast.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17- Definitely not? - You heard your mother.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21So...scam or joke?
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Why can't you shut up when you're told?
0:25:25 > 0:25:28Paul, come on, mate. Let's get off. Got your stuff?
0:25:41 > 0:25:43Sit down, Helen.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00I have to know.
0:26:03 > 0:26:04You have to tell me the truth.
0:26:08 > 0:26:09What?
0:26:12 > 0:26:13Did you...
0:26:16 > 0:26:17Did you...
0:26:20 > 0:26:23..do anything with him that you shouldn't have?
0:26:26 > 0:26:28No.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36Look me in the eye, Helen, and tell me the truth.
0:26:47 > 0:26:48Have you been unfaithful to me?
0:26:58 > 0:27:01Did you do it with him? Did you?
0:27:02 > 0:27:04I had an affair with him.
0:27:08 > 0:27:09How long for?
0:27:10 > 0:27:12A year.
0:27:15 > 0:27:16When did it end?
0:27:18 > 0:27:19When he was killed.
0:27:25 > 0:27:29- I'm so sorry to hurt you, Derek. - Sorry?
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Did you two have a good laugh about me, did you?
0:27:31 > 0:27:33- Good old Derek, working hard... - No. Don't.
0:27:33 > 0:27:37..every day, while you're swanning off with your fancy man.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39You two must have thought I was a right mug.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45We never talked about you.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47How could you do this to me, Helen?
0:27:47 > 0:27:48I didn't love him, Derek.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52Well, you don't bloody love me, that's plain for all to see.
0:27:52 > 0:27:56- I'm sorry to hurt you. - Then why did you?
0:27:58 > 0:28:00It just happened.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02No, because you wanted it to.
0:28:04 > 0:28:08You don't want for anything. I give you loads of housekeeping.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11I buy you things. What else could I have done?
0:28:11 > 0:28:15Cos I've treated you as good as any husband I know treats their wife.
0:28:15 > 0:28:19- You don't know, Derek. - Of course I know.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22It's not just women, men talk...at work.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24- And you think...- Think what?
0:28:24 > 0:28:27I am a woman, a person, not a wife?
0:28:27 > 0:28:29For God's sake, Derek,
0:28:29 > 0:28:32if you want to know what drove me to somebody else, look in the mirror.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34It's the way that I'm treated.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36He never told me I wasn't too bright.
0:28:36 > 0:28:39He didn't constantly undermine my self-confidence.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42He didn't take me for granted every single day.
0:28:43 > 0:28:48He listened to me, Derek. He respected my opinions.
0:28:48 > 0:28:51He disagreed with me but not in a dismissive way.
0:28:51 > 0:28:53We had conversations.
0:28:54 > 0:28:58So that's what it was all about? Clever conversations?
0:28:59 > 0:29:01And he never wanted you to get in his bed?
0:29:01 > 0:29:04Course he did. He used you.
0:29:04 > 0:29:05Don't descend to that.
0:29:05 > 0:29:09God, Helen, when I think back, you were at it with him
0:29:09 > 0:29:11and I made love to you.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13Made love?
0:29:14 > 0:29:16Don't make me laugh.
0:29:17 > 0:29:21What? Going through the motions after snooker night? Love?
0:29:22 > 0:29:25Love hasn't come into it for the last ten years.
0:30:01 > 0:30:08FOOTSTEPS AND DOOR SHUTS
0:30:37 > 0:30:40- Is it Mr Lamb?- Yes. - Nice to meet you.
0:30:40 > 0:30:42Mrs Lincoln? If you'd like to follow me, please.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49KNOCK AT DOOR
0:30:53 > 0:30:57Oh, thanks for coming, Mrs Lincoln. Would you like a drink at all?
0:30:57 > 0:30:58No, thanks.
0:31:05 > 0:31:07I take it you've given this some serious thought
0:31:07 > 0:31:09since our last phone call.
0:31:09 > 0:31:14Yeah, yeah, I have. I don't know how much you know.
0:31:14 > 0:31:15Quite a lot, Mrs Lincoln.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17About why Duncan left me the money?
0:31:19 > 0:31:22I know you had a relationship with him.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25I can promise you complete discretion regarding that.
0:31:25 > 0:31:26I'm afraid that's too late.
0:31:26 > 0:31:30My husband's already opened the envelope so I've told him everything.
0:31:30 > 0:31:32Oh, I'm sorry. It was clearly addressed to you.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34He wouldn't think twice about that.
0:31:34 > 0:31:38Not unless it was obviously medical, like 'women's stuff.'
0:31:40 > 0:31:41And is your husband knowing
0:31:41 > 0:31:44the reason why you're not accepting the bequest?
0:31:46 > 0:31:49Well, you don't need to give me a reason why you won't,
0:31:49 > 0:31:52but I wish you would, then we could talk it through.
0:31:56 > 0:31:59Why do you want to do that?
0:31:59 > 0:32:01Because I think you should accept it.
0:32:03 > 0:32:06- I can't.- Why ever not?
0:32:11 > 0:32:13I know he left me the money with the best intentions
0:32:13 > 0:32:17but I feel it would cheapen what we had, which was very special.
0:32:17 > 0:32:21It wasn't about money, it was about us, it was about him and me.
0:32:23 > 0:32:25I hear what you're saying
0:32:25 > 0:32:27but I really do think you should accept it.
0:32:27 > 0:32:31Well, I'm sorry... I can't. With due respect...
0:32:33 > 0:32:34..you don't know.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38Duncan...
0:32:39 > 0:32:44Duncan was killed when he was hurrying to meet me.
0:32:46 > 0:32:48How could I possibly profit from his death?
0:32:51 > 0:32:54Duncan was killed as he attempted to make a phone call
0:32:54 > 0:32:59and, distracted, ran into the back of a wagon at great speed.
0:33:01 > 0:33:04Look I'm sorry, Mrs Lincoln, I really don't mean to upset you.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06I just want you to have the full facts
0:33:06 > 0:33:09so that perhaps you can reconsider your decision.
0:33:17 > 0:33:22This afternoon, I'm going to put a deposit down on a new apartment.
0:33:27 > 0:33:30I'm going to use the £50,000 he left me.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35You see, I also knew Duncan very well.
0:33:38 > 0:33:43That phone call he was trying to make before he was killed,
0:33:43 > 0:33:47it could have been to tell you he couldn't make your rendezvous...
0:33:48 > 0:33:50..or to tell me that we could meet...
0:33:59 > 0:34:02..or it could have been to one or two others.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07You are not the only beneficiary, Mrs Lincoln.
0:34:07 > 0:34:08How many?
0:34:15 > 0:34:16How many?
0:34:16 > 0:34:18Five.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23You must be about 50 yards away, then.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26I've ordered for you. I'll see you in a sec.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29- Here's your coffees.- Thank you.
0:36:01 > 0:36:04- We need to get sorted.- I know.
0:36:10 > 0:36:12Can I just say what's on my mind?
0:36:15 > 0:36:16Yes.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25I've obviously given things a lot of thought recently...
0:36:26 > 0:36:28..and I realise...
0:36:29 > 0:36:31..you need to be told what I expected...
0:36:36 > 0:36:37..what I thought you knew.
0:36:42 > 0:36:44Some things need to be said out loud.
0:36:47 > 0:36:49Yeah, you're right.
0:36:54 > 0:36:58So what do you want to say?
0:37:04 > 0:37:06I love you, Helen.
0:37:13 > 0:37:14Do you?
0:37:16 > 0:37:17Yes...
0:37:20 > 0:37:23..and that makes what you did all the harder to live with.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28- I'm sorry it's come to this. - So am I...
0:37:30 > 0:37:33..but it's forced me to say things I wouldn't normally.
0:37:34 > 0:37:35There you go.
0:37:38 > 0:37:39And I should.
0:37:48 > 0:37:53I want you to stay with me and I want us to make a go of things.
0:37:53 > 0:37:54Can I just say...?
0:37:54 > 0:37:58- No. In a minute. I'm not finished. - OK. Go on.
0:38:04 > 0:38:08It's not about the money. It's definitely not about the money.
0:38:12 > 0:38:14It's about us.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18And I don't care if you don't take the cash.
0:38:18 > 0:38:22I'll never ever mention it again, and neither will the lads.
0:38:25 > 0:38:28The lads, they don't know why it was left to me, do they, still?
0:38:28 > 0:38:32They think it was an eccentric man you befriended in the hospital.
0:38:34 > 0:38:38We just want things to be as they were but better.
0:38:39 > 0:38:40Better for you, Helen.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50I've learned the hard way...
0:38:52 > 0:38:53..and the lads...
0:38:54 > 0:38:55..are the same.
0:39:13 > 0:39:16- Hi, love.- Hiya, love.- Hiya.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18- You've been ages, Mum. - Dad's had to cook tea.
0:39:18 > 0:39:20Good, I hope it's edible.
0:39:20 > 0:39:22What have you bought, then?
0:39:22 > 0:39:25- I have been to a travel agent. - What for?
