00:00How's little man doing?
00:07Oh, he didn't sleep well last night. Good choice to be in the spare room.
00:18Yeah, well, I would have rather had been with you. Look, I'll stay with him tonight if you're
00:22going to be restless again.
00:23Depends how sore your lip is.
00:24Yeah.
00:25One lucky punch, that.
00:26Yeah.
00:28You sure you're alright?
00:29Yeah, it's just, um, I didn't say yesterday, but when a client caught me in the face, I
00:34found some gym equipment and bruised my side.
00:37Ouch. Double blow to the ego.
00:41Look, I'm sorry. I wasn't there to pick up Evan yesterday.
00:46No, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have snapped at you like that.
00:52And you seem to be suffering enough. I'll forgive you just this once.
00:59Anyway, what are we doing today? I think I might take Evan out for some fresh air if
01:10you're alright to look after the kids.
01:11Yeah, actually, um, I've got a lead on another car. Seems like a bargain. But I can call
01:17and rearrange.
01:18No, you do what you have to do.
01:20I'll be quick, I promise. And then I'll stay with the kids as long as you need.
01:25And that's why I love you.
01:33So that's one Americano and one bacon on toast. Shouldn't it be two? Or is Kim more of a
01:41muesli kind of a woman?
01:42I know there's a connection here, I just can't seem to figure it out.
01:47You waving the flag of peace, calling a ceasefire and trying to save your marriage.
01:53Oh, that.
01:54Yes, that. I thought that's what you wanted.
01:56Yeah, the end result. It's all the suffering before hand that bothers me. What happens
02:00if she tells me where to get off?
02:02There's only one way to find out.
02:04Yeah, I know, but what if... I really don't like it when you're right. You get this smug
02:09face thing going on.
02:12The one that makes you want to punch me. Nicola might have mentioned it once or twice.
02:17Okay, I'll talk to her. If it shuts you up.
02:21I happen to know that Kim loves a chai latte with a sprinkle of cinnamon on top if you're
02:27interested.
02:29Are you being a mate or are you upselling me?
02:32Are the two mutually exclusive?
02:36No, but it's not nagging if someone is genuinely trying to help and care for you.
02:41And you think giving me condoms will do that?
02:43I want you to have a good time, but be safe.
02:46I'm seriously not having this conversation again.
02:48All right, pretend I'm Ashley and I gave you these cond...
02:50No! No, it's still not working.
02:52Okay, fine. But this subject is not closed, all right? But lucky for you, I've got a bit
02:57of work.
02:59You get in the chat, lucky you.
03:05Oh, God, you heard that? I mean, talk about cringe. Why would she do that?
03:11Because she cares, maybe.
03:13Too much sometimes.
03:15Look, I've got to fix a headlight on the van later. You couldn't give us a hand?
03:20You want me to help?
03:22You catch on fast. And the way I look at it, you owe us a favour, right?
03:29Sam's visiting Samson today. He always goes really quiet. Bittersweet, I suppose.
03:36Well, I've had my fair share of that, believe me. I'm from both sides of the table.
03:41I'm sorry. Here I am prattling on and you've got your own worries.
03:45We're friends. I like hearing about your life.
03:50Let's face it, it can't be as much of a car crash as mine.
03:54Between us, we could write a book. Let's just hope we both get the ending we want.
03:59Well, I'm a long way from that.
04:03See what I mean?
04:05Look, I know I'm probably the last person you want to see.
04:08And yet, in you come anyway. Astute and stupid in equal measures, it would seem.
04:14Do you know I should be cracking on with them skirting boards?
04:17One day I'm going to work out just how many miles of them there are in here.
04:23I bought you a chai thingy. But I can go.
04:28You've already ruined my morning. Might as well double down.
04:34Look, what the hell are you doing here? This is my home.
04:37I know. And I'm impressed. I can see why you fight. Obviously, you've got a lot to lose.
04:42Right, so do yourself a favour, because if my wife sees you here...
04:45I wouldn't have to track you down if you don't see your text messages.
04:49You're wasting your time.
04:50You put on a good show yesterday. Even with a hole in your side.
04:54Kind of made me want to see more.
04:56Well, I'm serious.
04:58You put on a good show yesterday. Even with a hole in your side.
05:01Kind of made me want to see more.
05:03Well, I'm seriously not interested in what you've got to say.
05:05How would you know, unless you've heard it?
05:09Have you dropped me in this?
05:12You all right? Just brought Evan out for some fresh air.
05:17Is everything OK?
05:19It would be, if Billy would do as I ask.
05:22Meaning what?
05:23Nothing. A client recommended me.
05:26And as luck would have it, I was just passing.
05:28Is that luck, or is that a bit stalkery? No offence.
05:30Well, that depends, doesn't it, on whether I get myself a new PT out of it.
05:35You know, my mate's always raving on about how good he is.
05:39If there's a slot going, I want it.
05:42Yeah, I see. But right now, I'm going to focus on my family, so...
05:46If you say so.
05:48My mate gave you my number. I'm happy to pay over the odds.
05:52Let me know, yeah?
05:57A driver in a car like that, you should double the price.
06:01Yeah, well, Evan's just got home.
06:03And I know that yesterday wasn't great, but he comes first.
06:08Well, if she'll pay good money, you'd be daft not to think about it.
06:16To be honest, I half expected to end up with a horse's head in me bed after yesterday.
06:21Odd reference.
06:23Given what you know about me and my love for horses.
06:25Oh, yeah. Sorry, I was just referencing that scene in the...
06:29Yeah, I know what you meant.
06:32You thought I'd take revenge on you for Kerry, yeah.
06:36Well, then I realised that I'd done just the same thing with Peter,
06:42and I couldn't see the point.
06:44Except I didn't sleep with Kerry.
06:47I lied. We didn't, you know...
06:51I lied. We didn't, you know...
06:55Had too much to drink, had we?
06:57I'm not proud of it, but I...
06:59I paid her to pretend that we'd been together.
07:02With my money?
07:03With our money. But if that's what you want to take from this,
07:06I was hoping to prove how messed up this whole thing had gotten me.
07:11And you're telling me this because...
07:13Because I wanted you to know the truth,
07:15and if there was any glimmer of hope left for us that...
07:18After everything we've done to each other?
07:20Look, I know it's a big ask, and I deserve everything I get,
07:23but I couldn't live with myself if I didn't tell you how I feel.
07:30And then what? We wipe the slate clean?
07:34We both know things could never be the same.
07:38That doesn't mean that we can't try, does it?
07:41Look, I don't expect you to answer right now, but think about it, please.
07:47Please, at least give us that.
07:51Don't worry, I will.
07:55Well, you know where I am.
08:07Yeah, they're working.
08:11Nice one.
08:13Thanks for that. Here, let me get you a brew.
08:16How come you've been so nice to me after...
08:18Telling everyone we had a hook-up.
08:21Not your finest moment.
08:23I just wanted to seem like I had more experience.
08:25Yeah, I know. You're not the only one who's ever felt like that.
08:29In Australia, I could be the real me.
08:32But here, I just feel so stifled sometimes.
08:36Everyone expects me to just be Arthur.
08:39It's going to take time to figure out where to go and who to see,
08:43and you might feel like you're leading a double life sometimes,
08:46but you will get through it.
08:49Yeah, well, I'm glad someone thinks that.
08:51And look, don't take this the wrong way,
08:54but if you ever need any advice or...
08:57Seriously?
08:59I just said it, didn't I? Don't make me regret it.
09:02Thanks.
09:05Hey, you're moving well, like nothing happened.
09:09That's the plan. So everyone knows that they can't bring me down.
09:13No matter what they think.
09:15Yeah, well, I hope that doesn't include me.
09:17How could it? I love spending time with you.
09:20And if things weren't like they are?
09:23I don't know what you're getting at, but you might as well just say it.
09:26Look, what I'm trying to say is, Tom,
09:28are we still going to be seeing each other, or are you just trying to use me?
09:40Look, there's a wee park round the back of the car.
09:42It'd be great if you could take a look at it.
09:44Look, I've already told you I can't.
09:46I'm helping my way right out of the farm today.
09:49All right, well, I can bring it up to you if you like.
09:52Look, if it needs work doing, I'd rather know now.
09:55All right, so that's where you're putting all your winnings.
09:58I take it Don doesn't know about your latest influx of cash?
10:01Do I look like I've got a death wish?
10:03And what about the gaping hole in your side?
10:06She hasn't seen it.
10:08I slept in the spare room,
10:10and this I thought I had got from a boxer-size client.
10:13Well, you really are digging yourself a hole.
10:16OK, then, so what would you have done?
10:18Mate, I'm not judging.
10:20You know, I've made my fair share of bad decisions,
10:22but that's why I know they always come back to bite you.
10:24Yeah, not this time.
10:25Now that I've got enough money for a car,
10:27I'm going to concentrate on my family,
10:29and I'll tell Jade that I'm done once and for all.
10:31Whoa, whoa, whoa. Who's Jade?
10:33She's the one who runs the fights.
10:35Only she's turned up at the house earlier, wanting to talk.
10:38We all know what that means.
10:40Well, hang on, you said you weren't going to fight again.
10:42Yeah, I know, OK?
10:44Look, I took a risk, and so far it paid off.
10:47I heard what John said yesterday,
10:49and I might not get so lucky next time.
10:51Billy, this isn't about the money for you anymore, is it?
10:54You're getting a kick out of this, aren't you?
10:56Yeah, well, nothing is worse than losing money.
11:00Yeah, well, nothing is worth how bad I feel right now.
11:04And family.
11:06Family comes first, end of.
11:09Well, I'm still alive to tell you the tale.
11:12I mean, that's a good sign, right?
11:14See? I told you. Good for you.
11:16Unless Kim's keeping her powder dry,
11:19waiting for me to say too much to incriminate myself,
11:22then she's going to go for jugular.
11:24Or she's as tired of this whole sorry saga as you are.
11:29Wars of attrition can get you down.
11:31I should know.
11:33Nicola's a master of them.
11:35Jimmy, if I could...
11:36Two secs. We've got a mini man club going on here.
11:38Oh, really? Anything I can help with?
11:41Me and Kim, I'm just trying to call a ceasefire.
11:44Well, good for you.
11:45That's what I said.
11:46But Will's worried that Kim might just be biding her time,
11:50that it's more of a Cold War period than all-out conflict.
11:53I suppose only time will tell.
11:56It's Kim.
11:58She wants to meet you this afternoon.
12:01You know, like, when the eyes on a picture follow you around the room?
12:06It's kind of like that.
12:08Except you can't see the eyes.
12:10A friend of mine had tendencies.
12:13He used to sit chatting to some spirit.
12:16Really?
12:17Everyone thought she was doing it for attention,
12:19but I believed her.
12:22Oh, that'll be my cue to leave.
12:24I can take out my frustrations on the bathroom tiles.
12:26I use a toothbrush.
12:27It's really good at getting into the little awkward bits.
12:29But...
12:30Sorry, we can pick this up another time.
12:33Well, yeah, if I've not been possessed by Noreen by then!
12:36Ah!
12:40Ignore her.
12:41We have got every right to be enjoying ourselves together.
12:44That's what people in relationships do.
12:46Right?
12:48That's what people in relationships do.
12:51Right?
12:52Yeah.
12:53Look, you make me happy.
12:54And that is all that matters.
12:56And all this talk of me using you is complete rubbish.
12:59I'm sorry, Tom, it's just something what Lydia said.
13:01Yeah, well, it's not like she's biased at all, is it?
13:04Look, I get it.
13:06Of course I do.
13:07Can't be easy being in a relationship with a village pariah.
13:10But they don't know the real me.
13:13Not like you.
13:15I don't know what I'd do if I lost you.
13:17No, you're not losing me, Tom.
13:20Look, if anything, I'm ready to take things to the next level.
13:24I want that too.
13:26But we both agreed that we're going to wait.
13:30And that way it'll be way more special.
13:33You do understand?
13:34Yeah, of course I do.
13:42Hey.
13:43How did it go? Did you get the car?
13:45Yeah, managed to knock him down a bit while I was there.
13:48Well, let's see it, then.
13:49It's with Mac, the farm.
13:51He's giving it a once-over.
13:52Drove fine, nothing's fallen off so far.
13:55Well, that's him better nicked than you are, then.
13:58How's your side?
13:59Yeah, it's fine.
14:00Go and put something on the breezes if you want.
14:04Are you all right?
14:05Yeah, I'm just a clumsy fool.
14:06If anything, I'm embarrassed.
14:09And that's all it is?
14:12I mean, we're all right?
14:14You and me?
14:15Of course we are.
14:16Never better.
14:19Well, let's take our new car for a spin later.
14:21OK.
14:22I'll call Mac and maybe we can take the kids for a drive-through or something.
14:26Sounds perfect.
14:27Yeah.
14:28Come here.
14:29I love you, you know that.
14:31And I know things haven't been easy lately.
14:35But we've got each other.
14:37And this amazing family.
14:39That's all I need.
14:40Me too.
14:45Oh, are you cooking?
14:53Well, if you call heating a soup Lydia made cooking, then yes.
14:57Plenty to go around.
15:00Oh, sounds great.
15:01Thanks.
15:02I would say it's just like old times, but I don't want to tempt fate.
15:06Why don't we just enjoy it for what it is?
15:09And what is it?
15:12Condemn man eating his last meal?
15:15You just can't help yourself, can you?
15:17Always have to push things too far.
15:19No, sorry, I'm just a bit nervous.
15:23This means so much to me.
15:25And what is this exactly?
15:27Us.
15:28Being civil for once.
15:29Trying to work things out like grown-ups.
15:33You think I acted like a child?
15:35We've both been guilty of letting our feelings cloud our judgement.
15:38I like paying Kerry to pretend to sleep with you.
15:41Well, at least I didn't go through with it.
15:43Oh, and here we are again.
15:45That wasn't meant as a dig.
15:46And yet it was.
15:49Let's face it, too much has happened to ever go back.
15:53Look, I'm not saying that it's going to be easy, but if it's what we both want.
15:58That's just it, I'm not sure it is.
16:01I'm just so tired of all this bickering now.
16:05I'm on edge in my own home most of the time.
16:07That's no way to live.
16:08I get that.
16:10We will figure something out.
16:13I already have.
16:15I know I've said it before, but I want you to move out.
16:21Look, that can't be right.
16:23It was just some little old bloke who said he was going to give up driving.
16:27Yeah, sorry, mate.
16:28You've been stung.
16:29What you've got there is a classic cotton show.
16:31And a bad one at that.
16:33You're lucky that thing didn't split in two driving up here.
16:36I don't believe this.
16:38Number's dead.
16:40Yeah, of course it is.
16:42Use burners, these guys.
16:43Falsify documents, they're professionals.
16:46So what am I supposed to do now, then?
16:48Sell it all?
16:50No, there's only one person that can take that off your hands, and that's Vinnie.
16:54Because that is not fit to be in the road.
16:56Great.
16:57So my winning is down the drain, then?
16:59I'm supposed to be taking the kids out for a drive-through?
17:01Might need to be a delivery instead.
17:03Don't, he's going to kill me.
17:05And I don't blame her.
17:07All I seem to do is let her down.
17:11We could ask Charles.
17:12You know, see if he could exercise Noreen.
17:16Sorry, what?
17:18Well, then it is her house.
17:19And I feel bad for forcing her out.
17:21Well, there's no need for that, is there?
17:25Are you kidding me, Ryan?
17:27I can't live in a haunted house.
17:28I'm partoo sensitive.
17:30Well, you won't have to.
17:32OK, I've told Charles we're going to move in here.
17:35Seriously?
17:36Well, I own it, don't I?
17:38Well, I co-own it.
17:41Maybe then we'll finally get some sleep.
17:44Oh, thank you.
17:46Hey, how's Samson?
17:48Did you give him the picture of Esther?
17:50Yeah, yeah, he loved it.
17:52Do I?
17:53OK, well, I'll see you later.
17:55Do I?
17:56Oh, you've missed Lydia.
17:57Something about bathroom towels and toothbrushes?
18:00What?
18:01Oh, right.
18:02Yeah, I'll just have a pint.
18:04I'll get Sam's.
18:07Look, you'd do with cheering up.
18:10I don't know if a pint will do it, but thanks.
18:14How's Samson getting on?
18:16Really, I mean.
18:18Yeah, he's proper down, to be honest.
18:21Lad, he says two words most of the time.
18:24But I can't let folk know that, can I?
18:27And if Lydia found out, she'd be even more worried than she is now.
18:30Yeah.
18:31Can't keep these things bottled up inside.
18:34Why not?
18:36Let's face it, if I'd have been a better dad,
18:39I would never have ended up in prison in the first place.
18:41Well, that's far from true.
18:43You're one of the best dads I know.
18:45What?
18:47Look, no offence, but I'd rather just drink this on my own.
18:52So the car's stolen?
18:55More like two write-offs welded together.
18:59Matt reckons it's a death trap, so...
19:02So no car, no savings?
19:05Some savings.
19:07Enough to pay for the extra heating next month.
19:10But basically we're back to square one.
19:12I don't believe this.
19:14Look, I'm sorry, OK? You were right.
19:17I got excited and I probably should have taken Matt with me to view it.
19:22I don't know what we did in a past life, but why does everything go wrong for us?
19:27I know it might feel like that.
19:29And things are probably going to get tough again,
19:31but I'll work extra hard to make the money back.
19:34You know that, right?
19:36Well, you're going to have to take that posh client from this morning.
19:38As many as you can get.
19:41I will, OK?
19:44I'll contact her and I'll sort something out.
19:46Like you said, double the price, wherever it takes.
19:51Dawn, I can't stress how sorry I am.
19:54No.
19:56I know you are.
19:58It's not your fault.
20:00It's just the worst timing, isn't it?
20:03I just need time to process this.
20:11We've both done things we regret.
20:13Why don't we just call it even and draw a line under...
20:17So when you said that you wanted me to move out...
20:20I meant today.
20:22Living under the same roof isn't working, and you know it.
20:25But this is our marital home.
20:27In my name. That I owned before we got together.
20:31Kim...
20:32Oh, and just so as you know, I've drained our joint accounts.
20:36So from now on, the bank of Kim is closed.
20:38You can't do that. Half of it...
20:40Go on. Say it again.
20:43Go on. Say it again.
20:45Not that it'll make any difference.
20:48We've said some terrible things.
20:51I had hoped it was because of how hurt we felt,
20:54that we were just lashing out.
20:56Well, now you know otherwise.
20:58Fine. Fine.
21:01I tried.
