00:00So that, I read, right?
00:28That bonding with your sibling is actually really good for your health.
00:33Right.
00:34You know how Devinder's just been so down recently with his dialysis?
00:39I was just thinking that if we went into town,
00:42did some shopping, it would probably cheer him up.
00:45You know, if only I had some money.
00:48Well, town's too busy and we don't want him getting tired in the crowds now, do we?
00:52I'm fine.
00:53I got something for you.
00:55Um, what's this for?
00:59Uh, just some detective work.
01:01Please, Dad, can we go into town?
01:04Fine.
01:06Do not go flashing us about and take it easy, yeah?
01:10Don't worry, Daddy. I'll look after him.
01:12Don't mean looking after now, do I?
01:14That's what the Diviney P.I. do for you.
01:20Helping me look after someone I need to make amends with.
01:25One of many.
01:26When your days are numbered, you start thinking about the past.
01:31And I want to make things right.
01:33I'm proud of you, Dad.
01:35Life is so much better without pants.
01:57Uh, yeah, I mean, they do say a little bit of air circulating is good for you.
02:02I meant Prius.
02:03We don't have to put up with her nipples draped all over the bathroom anymore.
02:06Yeah, I mean, it is tidy without her.
02:09Yeah, quieter.
02:11I'm all about the quiet life these days.
02:12Is that what happens when you're middle-aged?
02:15You're in a good mood.
02:17Yeah, well, Dad says he's got big plans for me.
02:20Yeah, let's just, um, talk about that over lunch, shall we?
02:24Sounds good.
02:25This thing with Nisha's too risky.
02:28Last week it was a close call.
02:31If he finds out what you're up to...
02:32Well, you don't know if he heard, right?
02:35But all we can do is stick to the plan.
02:36What if you did?
02:38And while you think you're playing him, he's actually playing you.
02:40Look, trust me.
02:41I won't let anything happen to any one of us.
02:45I promise you.
02:48Two flat whites, please, Bern.
02:51Bernie.
02:53Sorry.
02:55Have you seen this?
02:58Can't come quick enough.
03:00Well, it'll soon be over.
03:02We'll just, um, grab a table, Ben.
03:07I can't get away from it.
03:11You just need to focus on yourself.
03:13Staying sober.
03:15What is it Gran always says?
03:17Just make that smile, aren't you?
03:19Can I get you anything else?
03:21No, I've got everything I need.
03:24Mum.
03:25Hello, love.
03:26You look nice.
03:27Oh, thanks.
03:28Bert's waiting on the serving pie and mash.
03:30I'm just stuck in there while Ian's away.
03:32He'll be back from the States soon.
03:34I would come and keep you company,
03:35but me and Gina are going into town with Dad.
03:37Oh, well, don't worry, love.
03:38There's always a way to brighten up the day.
03:41Right.
03:42Right.
03:43And there was I thinking this day was going to be really boring.
03:47The cat's away, so I thought maybe we could, um...
03:49I wish, but...
03:52You certainly know how to get a girl in the mood.
03:55Look, I'd love the distraction.
03:57Honestly, I've got a lot to do with the business.
03:59I want to make the most of Dad's investment.
04:01Mum, what about later?
04:03I've got too much on.
04:05I'm sorry.
04:08Oi!
04:09Keeps the doctor away, didn't it?
04:11Great fruit off me stool!
04:13Great roof over your head!
04:15No, no.
04:16Look, I'm starting to push my luck.
04:18Now, no matter how much I've used my time to get my money going,
04:22I'm not losing it.
04:23I'm still using it.
04:25You're not losing it, are you?
04:27I don't think you can get anywhere.
04:28I've been around.
04:29And I'm still going.
04:30I won't give up.
04:31I've got to get going.
04:32I'll get going.
04:33I'm going.
04:34I'm in.
04:35I'm not giving up.
04:36free roof over your head.
04:37What, you're getting sick of me already?
04:39I know things are tough. I do, but...
04:42Any idea roughly when you might be moving out?
04:46Look, I get that you're doing me a massive favour and I want to move, I do.
04:51But right now I need to get a job so I can save for a deposit.
04:54You wouldn't want to see me out on the street, would you?
04:56No, of course not.
04:58But you are definitely getting a job.
05:00Babe, it is my number one priority.
05:05No, I'm so good.
05:10Thinking spending some time with Vinnie today?
05:14I think he said he was busy, you know.
05:17Come down to the restaurant, spend some time with my eldest son instead?
05:21Well, the restaurant's pretty booked up, so I'll be busy.
05:25How much fun for you?
05:28What's the real reason you don't want me there?
05:32Sookie's made a reservation for her and Vinnie.
05:35Dad, you don't need to stress the scene.
05:38We live across the square from each other.
05:41Can't avoid her all the time.
05:44And Vinnie's got every right to spend some time with his mother.
05:47Yeah, they should have their lunch in peace.
06:01Come on, Sookie, come on.
06:19You want to take a break, darling? I can manage.
06:22Thanks.
06:26What can I get you, darling?
06:31Come on.
06:54Bit thirsty?
06:56What? You can't come up here.
06:58I mean, who are you?
07:00Of course.
07:02I'm Fraser.
07:04I'm, uh, associate of Dean Wickes.
07:08Get out.
07:10I'm not meaning you any harm.
07:12I've just got a message for you.
07:14I'll keep this simple.
07:16Dean's offering you a deal.
07:18You retract your false witness statement from the night that poor young guy was murdered,
07:23and he'll confess to what he did to you.
07:31So these big plans your dad's got for you,
07:34think you've any clues now?
07:36Maybe he's trying to sell something off to give me the cash.
07:39Right, well, you need to push him a bit more.
07:41See if he'll tell you.
07:43Can't have him dragging his feet too much. Who knows how long he's got?
07:46Yeah.
07:51Don't mind me.
07:55Mother and son time is important.
08:01Come on.
08:08You don't just get to walk into my home and offer me some stupid deal.
08:12I mean, why would I retract my statement when I did see Dean on the night of Kiana's murder?
08:16Dean says he wasn't, now.
08:18Oh, and you believe him?
08:20Do you even know what kind of man you're doing business with?
08:22What he did to me?
08:24Your associate is a rapist.
08:26I'm just the messenger.
08:28You retract your statement, he'll confess to what he did to you.
08:31I don't care how many times you say it, I don't believe you.
08:34Well, I'm sorry for pointing out the obvious, darling,
08:38but I'm not sure you're saying no to the deal with a clear head.
08:42Just like I'm not sure you're fit to testify.
08:45Get out.
08:46I'd be all over the place, too,
08:48knowing that I was going to tell a huge, great lie to a courtroom full of people.
08:54I'd be tanning down the booze and all.
08:55Look, I know what you're trying to do.
08:57You can't handle little old me coming for a wee chat.
09:00How are you going to handle a witness?
09:01It's not a lie.
09:03Right, Dean's a murderer and he's going down for a long time.
09:06What is going on?
09:08Who are you?
09:10I'm nobody.
09:11Yeah, I can see that.
09:13I was just leaving.
09:14Get out!
09:16Think about it, eh?
09:23I swear by almighty God
09:25that my evidence will be the truth,
09:27the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
09:31Ravi, this place keeps you really busy, doesn't it?
09:35The call centre's going to take up a lot of your time.
09:39If that's what my dad wants, then I'll make a go of it.
09:46The minute he realises how much work it is,
09:48he'll be begging you to take it off him.
09:50Your dad is not going to get his own way.
09:55Come on.
10:01Nish.
10:04Thank you for coming.
10:07And sorry for the last-minute change of location.
10:11He was out with Dad.
10:16I know I don't deserve your time.
10:18I wasn't sure if I should come.
10:20I've wanted to look you in the eye for so long.
10:23To understand why you took my husband's life.
10:29Ayesha?
10:33It's OK.
10:44I thought you had back-to-back meetings.
10:46I do. Online.
10:48Oh, take a break.
10:50Ten minutes can do the world of good.
10:54I've got to take this. I'm sorry.
10:57Do you need a night?
11:00The girl's back yet?
11:02Not yet.
11:03Oh, I'll tell them I popped in.
11:05Jelly deals aren't always the best company.
11:07You're right.
11:09I hate to see a lady disappointed.
11:12Not that I ever have.
11:14I'll take your word for it, then.
11:16I'm Harry Mitchell.
11:17And you are...?
11:18Cindy Bill.
11:19Married to Ian Bill.
11:21Well, lucky Ian.
11:23But I don't see him round here, so...
11:25Harry.
11:26You could stay for a drink.
11:28I've got pairs of shoes older than you, love.
11:31Come on.
11:32I've got to be better company than jelly deals, right?
11:37Yeah.
11:38All right, then.
11:40What can I get you?
11:42Oh, a glass of white wine, please.
11:46All right, Billy?
11:47Not seen. It's Teddy.
11:49Hello, Teddy.
11:51I've made out with Vinnie and Ravi,
11:53and now I want to make amends with Ayesha.
11:55Oh, right.
11:56So all of a sudden you've become someone who does the right thing.
11:59She's the one I've wronged the most.
12:01At least she deserves an apology.
12:04And I'm sure you want some answers.
12:07You're playing games.
12:09I don't know what's going on here.
12:11Maybe I shouldn't have come.
12:13Please, stay.
12:14Please, stay.
12:17I don't even know if what you said in your message is true.
12:21I wish it wasn't.
12:23I really am dying.
12:25You took the life of an innocent man.
12:28And you want me to help you go to your grave with a clear conscience?
12:32And you?
12:33You were in on this.
12:35Getting me here to make himself feel better.
12:38I expected more from you.
12:40I swear, I didn't know.
12:41She had nothing to do with it.
12:44You're both sick.
12:49Mum.
12:51Let it go, Vinnie.
12:54Let them have their moment.
12:57Ayesha.
12:58Ayesha, please.
12:59Ayesha, stop, please.
13:01Please, just leave me alone.
13:03Look, I had no idea that Nisha got in touch with you.
13:07I'm not going to be a pawn in whatever game you and Nisha play.
13:10Nisha and I are divorced.
13:12Look, can we talk?
13:14Please?
13:17I wish we could shout it from the rooftops, you know, celebrate properly.
13:21I don't think we should just yet.
13:22I'm out of respect for Debbie.
13:24No, of course.
13:26You should hear back about the post-mortem suit.
13:29It's taken ages.
13:30Yeah, well, it's a process, isn't it?
13:32These things take time.
13:34But Debbie slipped away.
13:35It's an open and shut case.
13:37It's an open and shut case.
13:38And you and me volunteering to give our DNA samples to the police,
13:42well, that'll help speed things up, won't it?
13:44No, I just want it over so I can move on.
13:48We're engaged.
13:49You're pregnant.
13:50We've got everything we wanted.
13:52I wish you could wear it.
13:54Well, it won't take the journalists long to resize it,
13:56and soon it'll be right here, sparkling away.
14:00I've got to go.
14:01See you later.
14:08That's a beauty.
14:13My grandma's engagement ring was just like that.
14:15This was my grandmother's engagement ring.
14:17Then it was Debbie's, but now it's Sonia's.
14:21Oh, you got engaged?
14:23Oh, mate, that's great news. Congratulations.
14:26But we were keeping it quiet out of respect for Debbie.
14:30I didn't think Sonia would want it, you know, being that it was Debbie's,
14:34but she knows how much it means to me.
14:37I can't wait to get married.
14:39Even though everyone's gossiping about us.
14:42You and Sonia have been through a lot together.
14:45So take it from me, honestly.
14:48Don't waste one more minute on whatever anyone else thinks.
14:53You deserve to be happy.
14:55Yeah?
14:56Yeah.
15:09When Nish was released, he wanted to come back into the family.
15:13Back to me.
15:16But it was never going to work.
15:19I, um...
15:22I'm a different person to who I was when he went in.
15:27He hasn't changed, though.
15:30He's still the same controlling, manipulative, lying, selfish little man he always was.
15:37So I wish I could tell you that he's apologising to make you feel better.
15:43But he's just doing it to get rid of his own guilt.
15:48I couldn't believe it when I got his text, but...
15:51I thought I owe it to myself and to Hardeep to face him.
15:56I don't live in London.
15:58I haven't since after Hardeep's death.
16:00I needed a fresh start, but I was here for a long weekend visiting family,
16:07and I thought, I can't get on that train home without hearing what Nish has to say.
16:17I'm sorry.
16:19I'm sorry.
16:23It wasn't your fault.
16:30Yeah, Gina, I'd really appreciate it if you could resize it quickly.
16:33My fiancée can't wait to wear it.
16:36That's wonderful, thank you.
16:38Thanks, bye-bye.
16:39You trying to avoid me or something?
16:40No, I'm just in a hurry.
16:42Yeah, so am I, to get a return on my investment.
16:44Look, everything that's proceeding is discussed.
16:47These type of investments, I will get you your first return very soon.
16:51When?
16:52As my patience has done her honour.
16:54Have some cash within 24 hours.
16:56I'll make sure I do.
16:58Because next time, I won't ask nicely.
17:05We were so close.
17:07Me and you, weren't we?
17:09Any little bit of news I had, did anyone want to run and tell you first?
17:14You were like the best friend I'd ever had.
17:19More than a friend.
17:25You mean...
17:27Nish...
17:33He was suspicious of all the time I was spending at your house.
17:39He thought I was having an affair with Hadib.
17:45But it was you...
17:47who I had feelings for.
17:50And I was petrified of my feelings, I didn't understand them.
17:55So I said nothing.
17:58I knew what Nish thought.
18:03And I never corrected him.
18:08How?
18:10How?
18:11How?
18:13How could you let that happen?
18:15If I had thought one second that Nish would kill Hadib, I...
18:22Nish was the one that took his life.
18:26But I'll always blame myself and I always have done.
18:33If I had been brave enough...
18:37to be honest with Nish about how I was feeling...
18:41Hadib would still be alive.
18:44And I'm not asking for your forgiveness.
18:47Because I know I don't deserve it.
18:51But seeing you after all these years, I...
18:55I couldn't not tell you the truth.
19:01A good man died...
19:03because of me.
19:06And I'm sorry.
19:08Aisha, I am really, really sorry.
19:13This is witness intimidation. We should call the police.
19:16No, that's the last thing we need. It could delay the trial.
19:19And Mum has suffered long enough.
19:22What if he comes back and you're in danger and the kids?
19:25I don't think he's coming back and I don't want to call the police.
19:28I need this trial to be over, Mum. I want to get on with my life.
19:31Please.
19:33Look, you go back to the bar and I'll be down in a bit.
19:43I know how difficult it is for women from my background to...
19:48face up to their sexuality.
19:51I've seen some of these women trapped in abusive relationships with men.
19:56The only person responsible for Hardeep's death...
20:00is Nish.
20:05And as for...
20:07facing up to your feelings...
20:11I know first-hand it's easier said than done.
20:18Did you really think I ran out of tears?
20:22Did you really think I ran out of tea and sugar that often?
20:29I knew I was gay.
20:31I've known since I was a kid, but...
20:34you know how it goes.
20:37Family, community, culture.
20:41It's different for some of us now, but back then...
20:47I wish I'd known.
20:52When Hardeep died, I felt how fragile life was.
20:57And I became obsessed with not wasting another minute, so I came out.
21:02To my friends, my family, to...
21:05everyone at my Gurdwara in Manchester.
21:08To myself.
21:10Are you happy...
21:12being yourself?
21:16It wasn't easy to start, but...
21:18yes.
21:20Yes, I am.
21:22My life is very different now.
21:25I even run a group for LGBTQI plus six.
21:31That's brilliant!
21:37And I am so glad that you're happy.
21:41Don't let anyone ruin that.
21:44And what Nish has done...
21:46Getting you here is just...
21:49the last attempts of a dying man to try and make himself feel better.
21:55He won't be getting any sympathy from me.
21:59And I'm not afraid of him.
22:17Okay, so...
22:19first you're too busy to talk to me in the big,
22:22and now you're stalking me outside my house.
22:24One of my mates got a cat on.
22:26No, you saw some young bloke chuck me off the bar,
22:29and you got jealous.
22:31Jealous?
22:33It's a man that kept my schedule, that's all.
22:36Well, we could be back any minute.
22:39Oh, that would be terrible.
22:41We could go back to your office.
22:43We could go back to yours.
22:45What, or if someone from the square's seen us together?
22:48And what about your very important work?
22:51Like you said,
22:53in ten minutes we'll be in the world again.
23:09I'm so glad you've come back.
23:11Please believe me,
23:13all I wanted was to see you and tell you to your face how sorry I am.
23:17I owe you that much.
23:19You're pathetic.
23:21I know the truth, Nish.
23:23Sookie told me the reason you killed Hardeep,
23:26so if you brought me here to use that against Sookie,
23:31it hasn't worked.
23:33You're the only person responsible for what happened.
23:36You killed Hardeep.
23:37It was your fault,
23:39and your fault alone,
23:41and you can go to your grave knowing
23:43that you took the life of an innocent man.
23:46But in the eyes of the law,
23:48I've served my time.
23:51That was my repentance.
23:53Repentance?
23:55Dad, I know you've got a lot to talk about,
23:57but I'm telling you, this is not the place.
23:59Here.
24:01I thought I'd remind you what a decent man looks like.
24:04This is not the place.
24:05This is what a decent man looks like.
24:07This is what you took from the world.
24:10I hope
24:12when you're taking your final breath
24:14and closing your eyes,
24:16the last thing you see are Hardeep's final moments.
24:20His pain.
24:22His blood.
24:24His suffering.
24:26Because it was all by your hand.
24:36It was really nice to see you.
24:39Yeah, you too.
24:41Look,
24:43why don't you stay for a bit now that you're here?
24:47I'd love you to meet Eve.
24:55I can't let Fraser get to you.
24:57It is exactly what Dean wants.
24:59Yeah, but he was right, though.
25:01You know, I fell apart in front of him.
25:03How am I going to manage under cross-examination?
25:05Okay, we've got your pre-trial interview next week.
25:07Let's just focus on that for now.
25:10Look, even if you did retract your statement,
25:13we have no guarantee that Dean would keep his side of the deal.
25:16Mum,
25:18he treats you into recording that fake confession.
25:20Okay, you know you can't trust him.
25:23You're right, you're right.
25:25But it don't matter how hard it's going to be.
25:27I am taking the stand.
25:29That's great.
25:31I know you can do it.
25:33Yeah.
25:35Okay.
26:06Eve, this is Ayesha.
26:08Ayesha, this is Eve.
26:10Hi.
26:12Ayesha was Hadip's wife.
26:14Hadip, as in...?
26:16Yeah, yeah.
26:18Nish called Ayesha down here to get her forgiveness.
26:20But he's not getting a thing from me.
26:22Yeah, too right.
26:24Well, it's lovely to meet you.
26:26Oh, you too.
26:28Yeah, go get yourself a table and I'll get the drinks in.
26:30What are you having?
26:32A glass of red.
26:33You remember?
26:35Yes, I remember cleaning it off your new rug.
26:38Hello, my darling.
26:40What can I get you?
26:42Hi, Elaine.
26:44One beer, small brandy and a glass of red, please.
26:46Coming right up.
26:53It's lovely seeing how well they're getting on
26:55after all this time.
26:57You got in touch with Ayesha for what?
26:59To ease your conscience?
27:00I've got no right to expect anything from Ayesha.
27:03But if me reaching out to her
27:05has led to them reconnecting,
27:07then at least I've done something good.
27:12I mean, look at them.
27:14Yeah, and on like a house on fire.
27:16Yes, well, they are old friends, so...
27:19Old friends?
27:21Is that what Sookie said?
27:23Huh.
27:25Well,
27:26you know, technically, she's right.
27:29Oh, shut up.
27:31What are you on about?
27:33What, she didn't tell you?
27:36Well,
27:38imagine my surprise looking at Ayesha online
27:41and seeing that since Hadi passed away,
27:45she's an out and proud gay Sikh woman.
27:50I guess you could say that she was Sookie's first love.
27:53So I think it's great that they've reconnected.
27:57I just hope it's not a problem for you.
28:09Long story, I really wanted so much to catch up...
28:12In this spot, actually.
28:14Yeah.
28:16Yes.
28:23Yeah.
28:53Yeah.
