00:00 [Music]
00:29 [Knock on door]
00:30 Oh! Hello.
00:43 Sorry, excuse the retro look. It's rains, obviously.
00:46 He's just in the shower.
00:48 Is Ethan back yet?
00:49 No, when I heard what happened. Is everything okay?
00:53 But he's been bailed.
00:55 But we didn't hear him come in last night. We didn't get much kip.
00:58 Had a marathon downstairs.
01:00 Film marathon, obviously the Vicar.
01:03 He's gonna get himself in so much trouble.
01:05 There must be an explanation.
01:06 He's not come home all night. He's not answering his phone. Where the hell is he?
01:10 Remember when we said we'd go travelling?
01:17 I reckon we should do America.
01:20 Maybe Vegas.
01:23 You can go there first, try and win some money.
01:25 You can go anywhere you want.
01:30 Hey.
01:35 Are you okay?
01:36 Yeah. I'm just knackered.
01:39 Yeah. Sit down for a minute.
01:42 No.
01:43 Where's Ruby?
01:44 She's keeping up in the family room.
01:47 I've just spoken to the police.
01:52 I got it out of them.
01:54 Ethan was bailed yesterday.
01:57 Don't worry.
01:59 I'm sure they know what they're doing.
02:01 They'll be getting all the evidence they need against him.
02:04 I'm sure he won't be out for long.
02:06 Last year's top ten baby girl names.
02:10 Luna.
02:12 That's cute.
02:13 You know I could see you with a girl.
02:15 There's boys' names here too.
02:17 Look.
02:19 Do you not think we should wait till I'm actually pregnant?
02:21 Don't you mean when we're pregnant?
02:23 You've not changed your mind again, have you?
02:26 You said you wanted us to start trying.
02:28 Yeah, I'm fine, honestly. It's just...
02:30 I want to speak to my care coordinator.
02:33 About my meds.
02:34 See if I should be staying on them or...
02:36 Yeah. Well, you'll have to. Yeah.
02:39 Well, I told you I've been reading up on it.
02:42 They tend to say keep taking your antipsychotics
02:44 if the potential benefit outweighs the risk.
02:46 I just want to talk to them myself.
02:47 In detail.
02:49 And it isn't just about my meds.
02:50 How am I going to feel in myself?
02:53 Alright, well, don't worry about it too much.
02:56 You're meant to be enjoying it.
02:57 Both of us.
02:59 It's exciting.
03:00 I know it is.
03:01 I'm sorry. It is.
03:03 Now that's better.
03:05 Right.
03:07 See you later.
03:09 Bye.
03:10 Tell you what, I'll send it all out in an email this afternoon.
03:15 Oh, and to you too.
03:17 Send me what?
03:18 The latest draft of the scarecrow trail map.
03:20 Alright.
03:21 Just when I thought my life couldn't be any more complete.
03:23 Oh, I spoke to the other vets and we're going to sort out a petting zoo.
03:27 Look, if you're going to ask me for more help, forget it.
03:30 I've done my part.
03:31 The lich-fates don't organise themselves, you know.
03:33 Should be your catchphrase.
03:34 Can I have my toasty, please?
03:35 Two minutes.
03:37 Anyone would think we've got nothing better to do with our lives
03:41 than worry about scarecrows, hey?
03:42 No, it's fair enough for me, but not young'uns like you.
03:46 Oh.
03:47 I take that as a compliment, shall I?
03:49 Yeah, you know, young, free and cool.
03:52 Me? Cool? Not these days.
03:55 How about...
03:58 ..er, single?
04:00 I just mean popular, young lady.
04:04 Such as yourself.
04:06 Paddy?
04:07 Where is this going?
04:09 I'm just saying, I'm just saying that maybe there's an eligible bachelor out there somewhere
04:14 looking for a nice single girl...like you.
04:18 And I just wondered, erm...
04:20 It's really warm in here.
04:21 ..if you might be interested in...in...in...in...
04:26 One cheese toasty.
04:27 Yeah, thanks.
04:28 What can I get you?
04:31 I've got a spare hole in the ground I can throw myself in, please.
04:34 What have he's done, O'Brunner?
04:37 Oh, I doubt he's done that.
04:38 Ethan's not stupid.
04:39 He's missing, Mabreet.
04:41 I know, Charles.
04:43 I'm just trying to help, OK?
04:45 Not easy for any of us.
04:47 I know.
04:50 I'm sorry.
04:52 Oh, everything's a mess.
04:55 I had a call earlier from his new boss and they don't want him.
05:00 They heard about his arrest.
05:02 They called you?
05:03 They couldn't get through to him.
05:06 I'm down as his emergency contact.
05:12 If he has done it, O'Brunner, he's made things ten times worse.
05:15 I've been so stupid.
05:18 Why did I have to go and call the police?
05:22 Charles, please, stop blaming yourself.
05:24 Who else is there to blame?
05:25 He's out there alone and he won't even give me a chance to explain.
05:29 We have to find him.
05:32 Before the police know that he's got an easy and even more trouble.
05:36 No need to be embarrassed. We've seen a lot worse.
05:41 Boils the size of melons.
05:43 2.30 next Tuesday suit you?
05:45 You're all booked in.
05:47 Bye.
05:48 I just had a text from Manpreet.
05:52 She feels so bad about dropping us, innit?
05:55 Oh, as if she's not got enough on her plate.
05:57 Text her back and tell her the locum's doing great.
06:00 She'll have you seen four emergency patients on top of her appointments.
06:03 When's my next one?
06:05 Ten minutes.
06:06 Listen.
06:08 I know you said that you were okay about me never having been in a relationship, but...
06:12 are you?
06:13 'Cause I know it's a bit weird.
06:15 And if you think so, then please just say.
06:18 I'm fine.
06:19 Honestly, I'm...
06:21 I'm just so glad you opened up to me.
06:23 I'm looking forward to hearing more.
06:24 Really?
06:26 Yeah. We grew up.
06:27 Family, but, you know, in your own time. I can wait.
06:31 I do want to talk more.
06:32 Maybe just... not here.
06:35 No, of course not. Obviously.
06:37 How about another lunchtime date?
06:39 Maybe you can stand the excitement.
06:41 Yeah, I think I can cope.
06:43 I'll bring the food this time.
06:45 We can have a proper chat.
06:48 [footsteps]
06:50 [door creaks]
06:53 [papers rustling]
06:58 [door slams]
07:13 [panting]
07:15 [door slams]
07:19 Grandma, you got my message.
07:34 You'd better start talking.
07:41 Cappuccino to go, please.
07:43 I, uh... I suppose I should probably say sorry about yesterday.
07:48 You and me going on about fate and scarecrows and stuff.
07:51 I had a call pending with Angel and it always gets to me.
07:56 Jimmy said.
07:57 And you don't have to apologise about stuff like that. You'd have thing.
08:00 Anyway, I've had a few more ideas about the salon scarecrow.
08:03 Oh, God.
08:04 I want to go full glam. I'm thinking Joan Cullens.
08:07 Stick on a towel in turban, like she's about to have a facial.
08:09 Sounds great.
08:10 I know.
08:11 Belle, do you want to help me with my scarecrow?
08:13 Hey, we could do a joint thing. We take them out.
08:16 Uh, maybe. I don't know.
08:17 Oh, don't tell me. Too busy with your baby-making plans?
08:20 I can juggle, can't I? That's what all working mums do.
08:23 Oh. You still got ahead with it, then?
08:25 Look, it's just... You know, you said you were going to wait to have kids.
08:28 You know, never mind your career, but your mental health.
08:31 It's 2024. People have kids and a career, too.
08:34 Yeah, but what about your medication?
08:35 What about it?
08:36 Well, it's just...
08:37 I'm going to talk to my nurses.
08:39 Just remember, kids are a nightmare.
08:42 They're not spewing things up, they're shoving things up their nose,
08:45 and you, Missy, you're a little terror.
08:47 It'll send any new mum under.
08:49 Even ones that haven't got a condition like yours.
08:51 Mandy, this is what I want, OK?
08:53 So I'm good. Don't worry about me.
09:07 I can't go to prison, Grandma.
09:09 I won't be able to cope.
09:11 You don't know that, sweetheart.
09:13 I've seen what goes on through my job.
09:16 Not that I have one anymore.
09:18 Not after this.
09:21 You might be able to get another one. Eventually.
09:23 Yeah, like I get out in one piece to try.
09:26 I'm a solicitor.
09:28 I defend these people. I might have even helped put some of them away.
09:31 You must be starving.
09:37 Coronation chicken.
09:39 Your favourite.
09:41 Go and see your dad. Please.
09:51 He's beside himself.
09:53 No. No, I'm leaving. I've made my mind up.
09:57 There must be something I can do to convince you to stay.
10:01 Don't do this.
10:03 Grandma, I've got no choice.
10:09 I can't bear the thought of losing you.
10:13 Your grandad's gone. Naomi's left.
10:17 All I want is my family.
10:19 I'm not going to let you go.
10:21 I'm not going to let you go.
10:23 I'm not going to let you go.
10:25 I'm not going to let you go.
10:27 Naomi's left.
10:29 All I want is my family. Together.
10:32 I'm so sorry.
10:35 I'll never see you again.
10:38 It's not right.
10:41 I wish it didn't have to be like this.
10:44 No, Grandma, keep your money.
10:54 You're having it, and that's final.
10:56 It's not much, but it will keep you going.
10:58 Grandma, it's yours. You need it.
11:00 You were as stubborn as this when you were four.
11:03 I'd never seen a little boy kick his feet so much if it wasn't going his way.
11:07 I still see that little face now.
11:11 I love you so much.
11:15 I love you too, Grandma.
11:18 I love you too.
11:20 I'll always be here for you.
11:38 That'll never change.
11:41 [laughs]
11:43 [crickets chirping]
11:45 [birds chirping]
11:48 [birds chirping]
12:16 Mum?
12:18 He wanted me to help him.
12:23 Ethan? You've seen him?
12:26 Yes.
12:28 Where is he?
12:30 He's gone, son.
12:32 He's gone? But...
12:34 How did you get to find him?
12:37 He sent me a message.
12:39 He asked me to go and meet him.
12:41 You should have told me.
12:43 I thought I might be able to persuade him to come home.
12:46 What did he say?
12:48 He's scared, and he can't face prison.
12:51 But he's got us. We can help him.
12:53 We can't.
12:55 He's gone and he's not coming back.
12:57 You're the only one I've got left.
13:00 Hey, hey, hey, all right.
13:02 Okay.
13:04 I thought we'd have butties and a brew for lunch, if that's all right.
13:07 I thought you knew I was a lobster and champagne kind of girl.
13:11 All right, sweetheart. What are you doing back?
13:13 I was taking her for a walk and I've time this morning.
13:16 Is anybody out here?
13:18 I bumped into our bell earlier.
13:20 Oh, yeah?
13:21 Yeah, she got a bit defensive when I mentioned about her now wanting a baby.
13:24 Well, I only interrogated her.
13:26 I just wanted to know why she changed her mind.
13:28 It's none of our business. She's got Tom. They'll work it out between them.
13:31 It's Vinnie you need to be worrying about.
13:33 Why? What's up?
13:35 Well, you saw him. He was holding Mr Chatter, was he?
13:37 Well, shall I see if he fancies a pub lunch? If you think that'll help?
13:40 It might help for now, but I think he's lonely.
13:42 What are you trying to say? He needs a good woman?
13:45 Yeah. He might be one on the horizon.
13:47 Who?
13:48 Gabby.
13:49 Gabby?!
13:50 Oh, shush!
13:51 But they've been friends for donkeys. Are you sure?
13:53 Yeah, I'm positive. I was talking to her yesterday and he was all nervous.
13:56 He said he didn't fancy a bar. I bet he does.
13:58 Really?
13:59 Hey, if there's some brew in that, I might need a bit of a puff.
14:02 Yeah, that's what I thought, but I might have messed it up.
14:06 How do you mean?
14:08 I saw Gabby earlier and I tried to drop a hint.
14:10 What kind of hint?
14:12 A paddy-shaped, made-it-sound-weird kind of hint.
14:15 You are an absolute plonker!
14:16 Sorry.
14:17 No, no, no, no, don't get your knickers in a twist,
14:19 cos Mother Mandy's going to sort this one.
14:21 I've done something I think you're going to like.
14:26 What?
14:28 We should be a proper team, shouldn't we?
14:31 Yeah, of course.
14:33 Especially now we're having a baby.
14:35 Which is why I think we should have a joint account.
14:39 Seriously?
14:41 Yeah, I'll take care of our money and you can concentrate on the pregnancy.
14:45 It seems a bit sudden.
14:47 We're married, Belle. It's what married people do.
14:50 I'll sort all the online stuff and passwords and you can just have a card.
14:54 You don't have to worry about any of it.
14:56 That's really thoughtful.
15:04 Just wanted to be sure.
15:06 Sure about what?
15:08 I just saw Mandy earlier and we were chatting about me being pregnant.
15:12 Oh.
15:14 What are you involving her for?
15:17 I'm not. She was just checking I was sure about it.
15:21 Why?
15:23 Cos she's worried about my mental health.
15:25 Oh, God, and now we're back to square one.
15:28 She's not put you off, has she?
15:30 No. She's got my back up too.
15:33 I wish she'd stop sticking her nose in it.
15:35 It's like she was churning stuff out, trying to stress me out.
15:38 She had no right upsetting you like that.
15:40 She knows how sensitive you are.
15:42 Making out like you don't know your own mind, using your mental health against you.
15:45 She's definitely not put you off.
15:47 No, definitely not.
15:49 No, it's fine. It feels much better now.
15:52 I just... I want Mandy to butt out.
15:55 Leave us to it. She has no right getting involved.
15:57 It's up to us what we do.
15:59 Like I said when we got married,
16:02 we are our own little family now.
16:05 Yeah, I need to tell him to all stop interfering.
16:08 Hmm.
16:09 Well, as long as you're OK.
16:12 Yeah, I am.
16:13 And I'm much better now that's off.
16:15 It's me and you versus the world, yeah?
16:20 When you said you'd bring food, I thought you'd be cooking.
16:28 All right. One of those, are you?
16:30 One of what?
16:31 The "I like my little woman in the kitchen" types.
16:33 God, no, I'd never...
16:35 Yeah, this is...
16:37 These were made by Nicola, but she's married.
16:42 And not my type.
16:44 Good to know.
16:45 So, you like winding me up? Any other hobbies?
16:48 Gardening, obviously. Walking.
16:52 Getting out into the countryside.
16:54 That all sounds really boring, doesn't it?
16:56 No, not at all. No, I'm the same.
16:58 Yeah, my dad used to drag me on these long walks in the forest
17:01 when I was a kid. I hated it at first.
17:03 And then after... well, he left.
17:06 And then he couldn't keep me away.
17:08 I think I often used to think I'd bump into him.
17:11 Do you ever do stuff like that with your parents?
17:13 My mum was never really around, so I don't think about her.
17:16 Oh. Was it just your dad?
17:19 For a while, yeah, but I don't speak to him any more.
17:22 Oh. And why not?
17:24 We just never really got on.
17:26 Well, families can be complicated.
17:28 I reckon that's why I don't mention those bits of my life.
17:31 I'm just used to it, so it feels like no big deal.
17:34 I'm sorry, you must think I'm nosy.
17:36 I've had worse things than a lovely guy wanting to get to know me better.
17:40 And this feels nice, just... talking like this.
17:44 Oh, good.
17:46 And I appreciate you talking more about Lianna.
17:48 For opening up.
17:50 Thanks.
17:51 It's a massive part of you, and you're amazing for getting through it.
17:55 It's so nice having lunch as a family.
18:08 You can tell us about your dog, Bog.
18:10 Well, Chip had a poo in the woods, and I chucked the stick about a bit for it.
18:14 Yeah, riveting, innit?
18:17 Can you order me the ham and cheese? I just need to take a chance.
18:21 Bingo. Here's my chance.
18:26 You get the butties in. I won't be long.
18:28 Hey!
18:34 I, er... I just wanted to ask you a bit of a favour.
18:38 Oh, funny that.
18:40 It's not the first time I've been randomly approached today.
18:43 Oh, you know what fellas are like.
18:44 Look, forget about Paddy. This is about Vinnie.
18:47 He needs cheering up.
18:49 Right. Well, apologies, but my stand-up routine isn't quite what it was.
18:54 Seriously, he's been so down in the dumps.
18:56 And, well, I know you and him get on, so I was just wondering if you, er...
19:01 wouldn't mind spending a bit of time with him, you know?
19:03 Boost him up a bit, you know?
19:06 So is that why Paddy was asking if I was single?
19:08 Yeah. We're just both a bit worried about him.
19:11 You know, you his friend, and we're...
19:13 good friends make the world go round, don't they?
19:16 Well, yeah, when you put it like that.
19:18 Oh, sweetheart, you are good.
19:20 Job done.
19:24 Hey, lovely. This is where you say when you're ready.
19:28 Sweetheart, I was only trying to give you some advice.
19:34 Even if it's pessimistic and frightening?
19:36 No, no, no, no, I didn't mean it like that.
19:38 Course you didn't.
19:39 You just can't resist bringing up our mental health, can you?
19:41 Like it's any of your business.
19:43 Oh, come on, Belle, she's only trying to help.
19:45 You should have came to me, say you were worried about getting pregnant on your medication.
19:48 And you made me feel worse about it. You don't think, Mandy!
19:51 I just wanted what's best for you. We both do.
19:54 Look, get yourself a drink and come and join us.
19:56 What can I get you, Belle?
19:57 Actually change of plan.
19:59 What I can really do with this is you just backing off.
20:01 Let us make our own decisions.
20:03 - Hey, take it easy. - No!
20:04 Need saying, Tom. This is our choice.
20:06 Mine and Tom's, cos we have a very strong marriage.
20:09 I thought you wouldn't know anything about that with your track record.
20:12 Mandy, you're the last person I would ever come to for advice.
20:16 Now keep your nose out. Come on.
20:18 Sorry.
20:24 All right, dear.
20:29 Well, thanks for the heads up.
20:31 Cheers, I'll see you later. Bye.
20:34 - Ethan's gone AWOL. - What?
20:38 That was Ryan. Charles has been looking for him.
20:42 Where the hell is he?
20:44 He'll probably call once he's figured out where he's staying.
20:47 Very cosy.
21:00 Ethan, thank God you're back.
21:02 I'm here for Grandma, not you.
21:05 I've come to tell you I've handed in my passport at the police station.
21:08 It's lucky they don't know you've been gone.
21:10 I'm surprised you didn't tell them yourself.
21:12 - Please don't. - Let's not talk about that now.
21:15 You're here and you're safe. That's all that matters.
21:18 You know you're a hypocrite.
21:19 How can you preach to your villagers about compassion and forgiveness
21:22 and not even show it to your own son?
21:24 Please don't say that. I've been so worried.
21:26 Can we not just sit down and talk properly?
21:28 - What's the point? He's ruined my life now, anyway. - That's not fair.
21:30 You've handed me in to the police!
21:32 What sort of a dad does that?
21:35 I'll tell you, shall I?
21:37 No dad of mine. Not after this.
