00:00I see you finally caved and went for the whisky, instead of just a quiet moment.
00:15Well, a person can only take so much.
00:18Well, you took my advice. You spoke to Will.
00:22That was the plan, until he showed up with company. Female company.
00:28He's got someone up there?
00:29Yeah, right now.
00:31Since yesterday?
00:32Do you know her?
00:34Kerry?
00:35No.
00:37I mean, they did look pretty cosy when I saw them together in the pub, but I never thought anything of it.
00:46Morning.
00:50I guess I should probably just...
00:52Maybe you should.
01:00Don't.
01:11You alright?
01:11Yeah, I'm good. You?
01:13Yeah, just been to pick a few things up for Samson. Going up to see him tomorrow.
01:18That's nice.
01:20Me and Lydia missed you yesterday. We're looking forward to spending a bit of time with you and Esther.
01:25Yeah, something came up.
01:28Tom.
01:29What?
01:31Already telling you what to do, is he?
01:34No.
01:37Samson's going to be away for a while. Esther's the closest thing we've got to him. He can't keep her from us.
01:42Yeah, I don't want to do that.
01:44Then don't let him poison you against us.
01:46This has got nothing to do with Tom, OK?
01:48This is all me, and I'm not really comfortable bringing my child around violent people.
01:52People? This is Belle we're talking about, not some random off the streets. She's family.
01:57Yeah, and Esther's mine.
01:59I have to keep her safe.
02:17If you were here to tell me you sorted me a hire car, I might just kiss you.
02:22I can do one better than that. I got one for sale. It's in good nick, and it's within budget.
02:28All right. You're a lifesaver. Well, then, where's this amazing car then?
02:32Bradford. You can pick up the hire car and drive up there if you like.
02:36What, now?
02:37Yeah, have you got something better to do?
02:38I've got a session with a regular client. I can't just drop it last minute. Tomorrow?
02:43Well, it might be gone by tomorrow, eh? It's a really good deal.
02:47Hey, you still out here?
02:49I've got tons to do before we pick up Evan from hospital.
02:52We've got to get the place spotless. I don't want him getting an infection on the first day.
02:54I was just saying hi to Mac.
02:57Hi.
02:58Hello.
02:59Great news about Evan.
03:00Yeah, thanks.
03:03Are you coming? Please, I just really want to get this all done.
03:05Actually, Mac was just telling me about a deal that he's got on a really good car, so...
03:10I was thinking about checking it out. It's only in Bradford.
03:13Today? Not happening?
03:15Look, it's a quick in and out, back before you know it.
03:17Oh, why can't I wait till tomorrow?
03:19Because it's in really good nick, and it's a decent price, it might be gone by tomorrow. Right, Mac?
03:24Sure, yeah.
03:28In and out.
03:29Promise.
03:35I thought you had a PT client?
03:37Yeah, I do.
03:39Okay, so we're not going to Bradford, then?
03:40No, no. Look, it's complicated, alright?
03:43I'll catch you later, yeah?
03:49Lovely, thank you. Oh, I can't remember the last time we did this.
03:54Just you and me, having a cheeky sandwich, coffee.
03:59Are you going to make this weird?
04:00What's weird about spending quality time with your mum?
04:03You said you wanted to talk, so... talk.
04:08Well, I just wanted to apologise for being a bit full on in the last few days.
04:13A bit?
04:14A bit like a mad woman, really.
04:16But it's just, I know you're a grown-up, and you're going to be doing, you know, grown-up things.
04:22And I'm okay with that.
04:24So, shall we start over again?
04:26Yeah, yeah, I'd like that.
04:31Hello, hello, hello.
04:33Someone's got it all this morning, guilty as charged.
04:36Waking up in the same house as Kim today was not the worst thing in the world.
04:40Wait, you two are back together?
04:42What? No, no, no.
04:44Then why?
04:46Remember when she had a gentleman call her the other day?
04:49Well, two can play at that game.
04:51You didn't.
04:52Oh, I absolutely did.
04:54But where did you even find a woman brave enough to venture into Kim's den?
04:59Who is this creature who doesn't value her own existence?
05:02Kerry.
05:03You slept with Kerry?
05:06Why don't you just shout it from rooftops?
05:08Look, I've done no that she hadn't done.
05:10Except, Kim is acting out of anger because of your betrayal.
05:17What's your excuse?
05:19You're out and about, no visible signs of blood on your clothes.
05:36I take it Will's still alive then?
05:38For now.
05:40You know, this is all Gabby's fault.
05:43If she'd just agreed to have lunch at the house instead of this place,
05:47then I wouldn't have to deal with that.
05:52Hey, Will.
05:54Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse.
05:56Right, well, what is taking you so long?
05:57Because, you know, it's not a good look to keep a girl waiting.
06:03Okay, I'll see you then.
06:04Oh, finally I could use a drink.
06:07Oh, not the bloody Mary, please.
06:09This is the only thing that's keeping the pounding from my head.
06:13Well, it serves you right for getting so drunk.
06:16Just a sec.
06:19You see that?
06:21Nobody respects me anymore.
06:24I just think they can say and do whatever they like.
06:27And you know why?
06:28Why?
06:29Because Will's doing it and I'm letting him.
06:32Sorry about that, what can I get you?
06:34Besides the terrible service?
06:37We're a little short-staffed today, sorry about the wait.
06:40Yeah, well, don't be sorry, it'd be better.
06:42And no, I won't be having anything, I've lost my appetite.
06:45I'll have another coffee, thanks.
06:47Okay.
06:49I know you're upset, but you're taking it out on the wrong person.
06:54No, we don't have to stay.
06:56We can just leave.
06:58And give her the satisfaction.
07:01No, I'm not going to waste my time or anger on her.
07:04This is between me and Will.
07:15You okay?
07:26Hey, yeah, sorry, I thought you were Billy in a hire car.
07:29We're supposed to be picking up Evan from the hospital today.
07:32He's coming home.
07:33Oh!
07:38Dawn, that's amazing news!
07:40Yeah.
07:41Although we've not got off to the best start.
07:44We were meant to be on the road half an hour ago.
07:45Billy's gone to get this car with Mac, and he's not come back yet.
07:49Well, is there anything I can do?
07:51I mean, I'm meant to be meeting Kim for lunch,
07:53but I'm not really in the mood for her 101 suggestions
07:55as to how I can run my business any better.
07:58Can your magic Billy back, please?
08:00All out of magic, I'm sorry.
08:02I can't believe he's done this.
08:04Today of all days.
08:06Well, have you tried to phone him?
08:07Yeah, he's just going straight to voicemail.
08:11This is just not how I imagined it would be.
08:14We're already late.
08:15The house isn't clean enough.
08:17Hey, hey, look.
08:18I'm sure Billy's got some excuses why he's not here yet.
08:21He wouldn't miss this for the world.
08:23I just want it to go smoothly, you know?
08:26We've only got three weeks before he goes back
08:28for his consolidation phase.
08:30Consolidation phase?
08:32Sorry.
08:33I'm spending so much time around doctors,
08:35I'm starting to sound like one.
08:37It's basically another round of chemo.
08:40But more harsh.
08:43And these little breaks are the only time
08:44we have as a normal family.
08:47We won't have another one for a while.
08:48Why don't I give you a lift?
08:50What about Kim?
08:51Her constructive criticism can wait.
08:53This is far more important.
08:54All right, I'll get his car seat.
08:57And thank you.
08:59And wherever Billy is, he should thank you too.
09:01I could murder him.
09:11What happened to you?
09:13I need a drug, mate.
09:14No, you need a doctor.
09:15No, no doctor, no hospital.
09:17Just get me inside.
09:41Sorry, I took so long.
09:43Just checking his breathing was OK.
09:48Can't stop worrying about him.
09:51You don't have to explain.
09:52I get it.
09:54I made you a brew.
09:55Can't guarantee it's still hot, though.
09:57Anything I don't have to make myself is highly welcome.
10:03I don't know why he's sleeping so soundly here.
10:06Maybe it's your driving.
10:09Maybe it's your driving.
10:12Maybe he's happy to be in his own bed.
10:17What's with that face?
10:23I just don't want to mess up.
10:25At the hospital, everything is so organised.
10:29There's someone looking after him 24-7.
10:32They know exactly what meds to give.
10:35When.
10:37They know when he's sleeping right, when he's not.
10:42I don't want to drop the ball.
10:45Look, just one day at a time.
10:47Right? That's all you can do.
10:51Well, it would be nice to know that I could count on Billy.
11:00Are you going to tell me what the hell happened?
11:02It's nothing.
11:04Right, let's try it again.
11:07It's just a little boxing.
11:09Underground boxing, that's all.
11:11What?
11:13Look, the guy I was fighting was just a little enthusiastic
11:16and I fell on something sharp when he tried body slamming me.
11:19Right, you fell on something?
11:20Yeah, it's no big deal.
11:22Oh, it's not a big deal. It's not like you've got a gaping hole in your side.
11:26How could you let this happen?
11:28Maybe I like living on the edge.
11:30Billy, this isn't a joke, man.
11:32You've got a sick kid at home. What if something happened to you?
11:34What am I saying? Of course something happened to you.
11:36Do you think I like doing this?
11:39Do you think I like taking risks like this?
11:42I am the only one who's working,
11:43so it's down to me to make sure that everyone is taken care of.
11:49Right, OK, fine.
11:53Did you at least win?
11:57Not enough to solve all our problems.
12:01It's a start.
12:03Right, just tell me this isn't going to happen again.
12:06OK, it's not always like this.
12:08This was an accident.
12:10Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
12:12Just you hang tight. You're not OK.
12:15We need to get that stetched up, man.
12:17Yeah.
12:19Let me drive you to the hospital, or do you know what? I'll call Liam.
12:22No, no, no, cos you'll just be opening a huge can of worms.
12:25Look, these people, they're dangerous.
12:28OK, well, then I'll call someone else, then.
12:32Oh, thank you, Amy. Dotty's going to love you.
12:34Aw, pleasure.
12:36Do you want a slice?
12:37If I eat anything else, I'll literally burst.
12:39Yeah, but it's cheesecake. You love cheesecake.
12:40Yeah, you used to.
12:42Well, I have got something for you, love,
12:44that might be a little bit more practical.
12:48What's this?
12:55Oh, my God!
12:56You get it, I know,
12:58but nobody wants their mum buying stuff like this.
13:00Yeah, do you think?
13:01Yeah, but I just worry about you, you know, with older men.
13:04Look, that didn't happen. You know that.
13:06Yeah, but you thought about it.
13:08And I can't stop you, you know, exploring.
13:11I just want you to be safe, love.
13:12No, I'm not doing this.
13:13Oh, Arthur, don't be silly.
13:15Arthur! Arthur!
13:17Whoa!
13:20Everything all right?
13:21I just can't get through to him at the moment.
13:23Ashley would have been so much better at this than me.
13:25Sorry, won't stop ringing.
13:30Hello?
13:32Sam, I'm off to the clothes bank.
13:34I'll be back in a bit.
13:38Can I come in?
13:39Yeah, of course.
13:41Hello, sweetheart.
13:43Hello.
13:45Hey, I've missed you.
13:47It's all right. She's not here.
13:49What?
13:49You can relax. Belle's not here.
13:52Sam, we've got company.
13:54What are you making all this noise for? I'm a talent.
13:57Look who decided to pay us a visit.
14:02You've changed your tone, then.
14:03Sam, it's okay.
14:05Apologise, immediately.
14:06If anyone needs to be apologised, then it's me.
14:09You were right.
14:10It don't matter what I think about Belle.
14:12I shouldn't let that interfere with Esther's relationship with her grandparents.
14:16Glad to hear it.
14:17Me too.
14:19Mate, you said you were gonna visit Samson tomorrow?
14:22Yeah.
14:24Could you give him this?
14:25From Esther.
14:26I mean, she grows so much every day, I just think he might like to see it.
14:30Of course I will.
14:40What, you said he'd been boxing?
14:44If I'm gonna treat you, I need to know everything.
14:50He was undergoing boxing for money.
14:53So much for keeping things quiet.
14:55Well, it was a pretty critical detail.
15:01Well, it's pretty deep.
15:03Massive chance of infection if it's not properly cleaned and suited with the right equipment.
15:08In the right environment.
15:10I told you already.
15:12No hospitals.
15:14Are you gonna help me, or what?
15:20Give me your belt.
15:30Write down on this.
15:33It's gonna hurt.
15:37Oh, it's so lovely that Esther's able to feed the chickens with her grandad.
15:43And that you've changed your mind about her spending time with Esther.
15:47Sam really needed that.
15:49So did I.
15:50Oh, she's already lost her father and her grandfather to prison.
15:53Mate, it felt too cruel keeping her from you.
15:56And does Tom agree?
15:59Look, this has got nothing to do with him, Lydia.
16:02Well, you are a couple.
16:04Couples usually discuss big decisions.
16:07You're wrong about him, you know.
16:09Like, he's not some manipulative control freak.
16:12Uh-huh.
16:13Like, he's thoughtful, he's kind.
16:17Until he gets what he wants.
16:19What, so someone like him could never love someone like me, is that it?
16:24That's not what I said.
16:25No, it's what you're thinking, though, isn't it?
16:27It's what everyone's thinking in this village.
16:30I'm just some single mother that has note to offer.
16:33You know what, you're right.
16:35Don't bring notes at table.
16:36And Tom's fine with that.
16:38He adores me.
16:39And we're planning our future together.
16:42Are things already that serious?
16:44I ain't slept with him, if that's what you're thinking.
16:47He's never put me under any pressure at all.
16:49He's been the perfect gentleman.
16:50For now.
16:51Until the mask slips.
16:53And the real Tom comes out.
16:55And then you realise you've just been a part of his nasty games.
17:00And I worry that you and Esther will be in too deep by then.
17:08Done.
17:11Is he gonna be alright?
17:13He'll live.
17:15Wouldn't rush back into the ring if I were you, though.
17:17One misplaced punch.
17:20Not even a hospital would be able to save you.
17:24Thanks.
17:26Keep an eye on it.
17:27Call me if anything changes.
17:28Yep, thank you.
17:37Thought you were a goner there, mate.
17:40Well, can't get rid of me that easy.
17:44Look, I respect why you're doing what you're doing.
17:47Well, is there any chance you can just leave it at that, then?
17:50No.
17:51Because you heard what John said.
17:53One wrong punch and no one can save you.
17:55I can handle myself.
17:56Okay, and what about heaven?
17:59These places aren't the cleanest, are they?
18:01You pick something up, you bring it home.
18:03Are you gonna be able to live with yourself?
18:07Not going home anytime soon, then?
18:08Nah, much more fun here.
18:12Ooh, aren't you a sight for sore eyes.
18:15I'll bet you say that all the girls.
18:17Oh, I've got something for you.
18:19Yes.
18:20There you go.
18:23It's all there.
18:25A girl can never be too careful when it comes to a man.
18:29Pleasure doing business with you.
18:30Likewise.
18:33Why is Will giving you cash, or do I even want to ask?
18:36Oh, it was just a little thank you for last night.
18:39Why what happened last night?
18:40Erm...
18:42You slept with him?
18:43Well, technically, I...
18:44You slept with him for cash?
18:45Just hang on a minute.
18:46Matt, I knew you were struggling,
18:48but if things were this bad, why didn't you talk to us?
18:50So Kerry's a prostitute now?
18:52Whoa, whoa, whoa.
18:53No, not a prostitute.
18:56I never slept with him.
18:57If I did, he'd pay me a lot more than this.
19:00I just needed someone to pretend to sleep with me.
19:03Kerry needed some cash, so it was like a win-win.
19:06Yeah, a little consensual non-sex never hurt anyone, did it?
19:09Seriously?
19:11Worth every penny and all.
19:13Kim'll still be boiling about it.
19:16Don't look at me like that.
19:17She started this whole mess.
19:21Like I've already said,
19:24you can end this.
19:25It's not too late to save your marriage,
19:28if you still want it.
19:41Look, before you ask,
19:43I know I messed up,
19:45but I do have a good reason.
19:46What's happened to your face?
19:48Have you been jumped?
19:50Boxercise.
19:51Boxercise?
19:54What happened to Bradford?
19:56In and out, back before I know it?
19:57Yeah, it was all a big faff.
19:59The guy said that someone had taken a car for a test drive,
20:02and it would just take him forever to bring it back, so...
20:05Why didn't you call me?
20:06Because my phone had died,
20:08and I didn't have my charger on me.
20:11Look, I didn't want to just come home with some bad news,
20:13so I thought I'd use the time to...
20:16make a bit of money with the training.
20:20What, is this meant to make it all better?
20:24No.
20:28Hey, little man.
20:30Hey, welcome home.
20:33I missed you.
20:36Did you get a taxi back?
20:38No, Gabby took us.
20:40Dawn.
20:41Billy, I asked you to do one thing.
20:43Come home early, so we could pick up our son from hospital,
20:46and you couldn't even do that?
20:47Look, I messed up.
20:48I'm sorry, but...
20:49you were already worried about Evan and the kids.
20:51I didn't want you to have to worry about money as well.
20:55I get it.
20:56We need every penny.
20:59But our son is home now,
21:01and it's just you and me.
21:02We don't have any hospital staff on standby.
21:06I need to know I can count on you, Billy.
21:16Hey, Billy.
21:18Double pair, next week.
21:20You in?
