00:00I'm not sure he's going to be up for all the fuss.
00:26Exactly.
00:27That's why it'll be so funny.
00:28Is this his birthday or yours?
00:29Well, you know what Ronny's like.
00:30He'll soap and mourn and say he hates it.
00:31Until he's had a few drinks and then he'll love it.
00:32But before that point, I get to enjoy watching him suffer.
00:33You two have a very strange relationship.
00:34Oh, well, what do you do, Ron, Ron, Ron?
00:35How are you diddling?
00:36Oh, yeah, I'm diddling okay, actually.
00:37Seriously?
00:38That's a prize pie.
00:39Oh, what?
00:40How could you possibly?
00:41Oh, I'm sorry.
00:42I'm sorry.
00:43I'm sorry.
00:44I'm sorry.
00:45I'm sorry.
00:46I'm sorry.
00:47I'm sorry.
00:48I'm sorry.
00:49I'm sorry.
00:50I'm sorry.
00:51I'm sorry.
00:52I'm sorry.
00:53I'm sorry.
00:59You left your laptop open on the website for happy birthday balloons.
01:03That could be for anyone, that.
01:06Oh, happy 55th birthday balloons.
01:09Oh, plumbing heck.
01:11You totally spoilt her for reveling in my humiliation, won't I?
01:14It wasn't just going to be humiliation.
01:16There was going to be cake and all.
01:18In fact, I was just about to nip into town to that wonderful bakery you like.
01:23Oh, you mean that place that does the cronuts?
01:27That's the one.
01:28But, well, I don't need to bother now, do I?
01:31Oh, no, no, no.
01:32Yes, you have to bother.
01:33Look, if you can wait but half an hour, I'll take you there myself.
01:40Why, thank you.
01:42What was I thinking, eh?
01:43A surprise party.
01:44This is much easier.
01:45I'll be a toe of Kev's.
01:48Ta-ra, Red.
01:49Ta-ra.
01:50What a woman, eh?
01:51What a woman.
01:52Hiya.
01:54Hi.
01:56Can I have a word?
01:57Is everything OK?
01:58Yeah, just hoping you can help me with some initial inquiries.
02:02Initial inquiries?
02:04Do we have to go down to the station or what?
02:07To be honest, I'm gasping for a nice cup of coffee.
02:10Can we do it in here?
02:12Yeah.
02:19Oh, oh, who's left...
02:21Who's left this glass here?
02:23Yeah, sorry, sorry, sorry.
02:24Maybe I need a glass of water behind my bed or I can't get to sleep.
02:27It's a sofa, not a bed.
02:28She's got you there.
02:29Yeah, all right, I'm sorry.
02:30Look, when I get this flat confirmed, I'll be out of your hair, all right?
02:34But why aren't you sleeping on the blow-up mattress of Gary and Sarah's?
02:37Because it's got more holes in it than something that's got a load of holes in it.
02:40Swiss cheese.
02:41Walk your pines back there.
02:42Oh, yeah, right, very funny.
02:43Look, I'll do that, I'll do that.
02:44No, it's done now.
02:45Here, will you just shove them in the wash for me?
02:47Oh.
02:48You know, you two are annoyingly similar.
02:53We're both devilishly witty and fit, aren't we?
02:57No, like annoying like something that's really annoying.
03:04How's Sam's hand?
03:06Er, it's fine, you know.
03:09If you're all right, it's just he's got a scar and...
03:12Oh, no, never mind.
03:14What do you mean?
03:16It's not that scar tissue I'm worried about.
03:20Well, what is it?
03:23It's the anniversary of Natasha's death today.
03:27Right.
03:30But, um...
03:32I know Leanne's known Sam as long as I have and...
03:36she's his mum, but...
03:38You're his dad.
03:39Yeah.
03:42You know, dropping him off there yesterday killed me.
03:46Yeah.
03:47It's like that thing that Mum used to say, innit?
03:50It's like having an elastic band connected from your heart to your kids.
03:55Bit gross, innit?
03:57Yeah.
03:59Hidey-ho.
04:00And here she is now.
04:02The massive backstabbing Judas,
04:05happily selling the house from underneath our feet.
04:08Where is she?
04:09If you're referring to Gail...
04:10He is.
04:11Your loving mother who looked after you and cared for you your entire life...
04:15Yeah, you can nip all that in the bud for a start. Where is she?
04:17Well, she's at mine.
04:18Because it was my suggestion not to spoil her mini-break by coming here and, well,
04:22seeing you with your face on.
04:26And you was at the flat all night?
04:28Yeah.
04:29You didn't leave?
04:30No.
04:31But like I said, Debbie was out all night,
04:34I had some food, watched some telly,
04:37went to bed.
04:40Right, OK. That's everything.
04:44So did he pass or did he crack and confess to everything?
04:47Yeah, he didn't stand a chance.
04:49I always go ultra-bad cop when I'm drinking frothy coffee.
04:52Oh, how lovely his birthday.
04:54It's your birthday?
04:55Oh, it's your birthday.
04:57You really don't have to go around telling everybody.
04:59You should have said. I'd have given you extra sprinkles.
05:02Many happy returns.
05:05Do you know what time Dee Dee and Michael leave for work today?
05:07Oh, well, if you hurry, you might catch them at ours.
05:09Dee Dee came round for breakfast.
05:11Right you are.
05:13Sir.
05:23I told them that we were in the house all night.
05:25And when did they back you up?
05:27Well, they were asleep when we left.
05:30You sure?
05:31Yes, I'm sure.
05:35I just don't get why you're here.
05:37Sir?
05:38Has she sent you to be like cannon fodder?
05:40Well, in a nutshell, yeah. Once more into the breach.
05:43I wanted to come to try and smooth the waters.
05:46Or you could just keep out of things that don't concern you.
05:49Oh, David.
05:51I just don't get why she didn't call me back.
05:53Well, the simple reason is, she's ignoring your calls.
05:57Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
05:59Gail doesn't ignore my calls. I ignore hers.
06:01Can I just say, I'm finding you a tad hostile.
06:04Hostile? Really?
06:06She's trying to make my family homeless.
06:09She's allowed to sell her house.
06:12Yes, and I told her to give me a chance to raise the money,
06:16but would she wait? No!
06:18She's far too busy posting pictures of you and her by the seaside
06:21and your flip-flops on flippin' blackjack.
06:29Hey.
06:32What's that?
06:33Er, my Jaws' ski goggles.
06:36Cods get off all right?
06:37Yeah, fine.
06:38Oh, give us a look.
06:41What are you still doing here?
06:43Half day for speech night.
06:45Half day for speech night.
06:50Oh, tar.
06:51Yeah, they're Mentos.
06:53You're gonna have such a good time.
06:57Hey, are you OK not mentioning what you were worried about yesterday?
07:00Oh, yeah, yeah, of course, yeah.
07:02Good lad.
07:04Right, put them on, then.
07:07Wee, perfect.
07:12Well, if you need to contact me, Dee-Dee's got my card.
07:15Yeah, well, I might be asking you to talk to Carla
07:17if she has a go at being late.
07:19So, are my whole family suspects now, then?
07:22Are you gonna speak to me mum,
07:23heading on to Lewisham to talk to our James?
07:25Told you, none of you is suspects.
07:28And I already told you when we spoke on Monday.
07:31Dad, Michael and I were all here together that night.
07:34Dee-Dee, honestly, it's just due diligence.
07:37Enjoy your party.
07:40Tar.
07:44What are you saying tar to him for?
07:46He was being nice, and that was a reflex.
07:49Look, why are you being so snippy?
07:51They're allowed to ask questions.
07:52Oh, really? Well, thank you for that.
07:54I had no idea.
07:56Look, Dee-Dee, I get it, OK?
07:59Whatever you thought about Joel, whatever I thought about Joel,
08:02you're allowed to grieve someone you might have mixed feelings about.
08:06Are you finished? Cos I thought you were late for work.
08:08Dee... Look, I just had a bad night's sleep, OK?
08:13Sorry. It had nothing to do with him.
08:16Right, well, OK, just make sure you cheer up
08:18before the party this afternoon.
08:20Party's for fun.
08:22Right, knock phone. Snippiness.
08:29I've just rang them.
08:30They're having a run on them bigger cakes, so we need to get going.
08:33Uncle Ronnie? Hi, Dee-Dee.
08:35Right, I've got your keys.
08:37I'll put the address in the sack now.
08:40What did you tell me, Sea Green?
08:42You just wanted to know where I was on the night Joel disappeared.
08:44Unlike your dad, I didn't have an alibi.
08:46Debbie was out.
08:47Where's Noble Street?
08:49Sorry?
08:50By the field.
08:51Noble Street, number 47.
08:53It says here it's the last place he went to.
08:56Um, that's... That's Joel's flat.
08:59Oh, right.
09:02And why were you at Joel's flat?
09:29Oh, that was from, er, ages ago,
09:31when me and Michael helped him move out.
09:34No.
09:35It's showing. It's your last address.
09:37I usually use my phone, don't I?
09:39I mean, I hardly use that any more.
09:41I mean, flippin' heck.
09:43First the coppers interrogate me over my break-in.
09:45Now you're giving me the third degree over my sat-nav use.
09:48I mean, you care to, er...
09:50I mean, you care to, er...
09:52I mean, you care to, er...
09:54I mean, you care to...
09:56I mean, you care to chip in here, Dee Dee?
09:59Yes, all right. All right.
10:02Hey, hey.
10:05Are you OK?
10:07Yeah.
10:08Yeah, I reckon a party will do us all a bit of good, though.
10:11You'd better get going whilst there's still some cakes left.
10:14Spot on.
10:15Right, come on, you, get in.
10:17Watch the two shoes.
10:19Lauren needs help, support,
10:22and I do really want to help her,
10:25but I'm just struggling
10:28to get over how I feel about her.
10:31Right.
10:34Look, I know I said I'd moved on, but...
10:39..the last thing I want is for her to think
10:41that I'm only helping her because I've helped her.
10:44The last thing I want is for her to think
10:46that I'm only helping her because I fancy her.
10:49Gah.
10:51I should just forget it, shouldn't I?
10:55Got to say, mate, not getting very many caring vibes here.
10:59Oh, sorry, mate, it's Maria.
11:01I'm supposed to be off today,
11:03but she's having some kind of...
11:05..salon emergency.
11:07All right.
11:08Somebody died.
11:10What?
11:12D-Y-E-D.
11:14Died. It was meant to be a hairdresser joke.
11:17Sorry for banging on.
11:19No, yeah, it's OK, I do get it.
11:22Look, I think Lauren is just feeling a bit fragile at the moment.
11:27I know.
11:28I'm just going to have to get over myself, aren't I?
11:30Hunker down in the friend zone.
11:33You OK to keep what I said to yourself?
11:35Yeah, yeah, of course.
11:38Well, that was nice.
11:40Mm.
11:43So, then...
11:45..shouting us a free lunch?
11:47Holidays?
11:48Feeling flush or what?
11:51Like a blindfolded man after a vindaloo.
11:56Er, no, I just, er, fancied a pub lunch.
11:59And your mum's told me you'd been burned by your exes.
12:02Yeah, more like drowned, actually.
12:07Yeah, I've been think...
12:09Well, we've been thinking...
12:12..maybe you're after Mum's money.
12:15After she's finished, you know, paying for all the bedding and stuff,
12:18and the house must be worth it.
12:20What?
12:21This house stuff against him, I didn't write.
12:23Erm, I need to top up Sam again.
12:26Ta.
12:27No, I'm fine, thanks.
12:28Yeah.
12:31No, no, I wouldn't say flush,
12:33but I'm doing all right at the moment,
12:35cos me and me ex's house sale has gone through,
12:38and I've made a tidy profit.
12:40Yay, gentrification.
12:42Right.
12:43Yeah, well, that makes sense.
12:46We'll just have to thank our lucky stars it's a seller's market at Warwick.
12:54I'll, er, after you.
12:56No, it's all right. You go. I'll wait for Max.
12:59OK, erm...
13:00Part of best and two zeroes, please, Jenny.
13:02Coming up, love.
13:06Meryl needs changing, I won't be a sec.
13:09Ah, look, I'm glad baby Frankie got a discharge date.
13:13Yeah, thanks.
13:19How did you get on with the sofa at number eight?
13:22What?
13:23Well, er, Gail's super comfy deluxe sofa
13:26that I vacated a couple of weeks ago, so you could have the pleasure.
13:30Oh, right.
13:31Yeah, it's dead comfy, innit?
13:33Yeah, but I was being sarcastic.
13:35Being sarcastic? I mean, that's spring in the middle.
13:37I mean, it's vicious, eh?
13:39Not really. I could sleep anywhere, me.
13:41What? Even on the world's most uncomfortable sofa?
13:44Well, no, you're just a bit of softie, aren't you?
13:46Very princess.
13:48You know, with the pee.
13:49Oh, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:51Hey, er, do you want a drink? I'm buying.
13:53Er, no, I'm not stopping, Tara. I've left Taya on her own.
13:56She's doing a shift.
13:57I was desperate and she was happy to help.
14:01Oh, right.
14:02I thought we should try that, um, being civil thing out.
14:06Yeah. Yesterday was pretty awful.
14:09Yeah.
14:11Um, did he mention his mum this morning?
14:14Er, yeah, briefly.
14:16He was more interested in showing off his stitches, to be honest.
14:20He's grown up so fast, isn't he?
14:23Yeah, it's hard to remember. He's still just a kid.
14:27A kid who's lost his mum, yeah.
14:30Listen, I've been thinking and I've got an idea about how this might work.
14:38Right. When he's inbound, give me a shout and I'll get these open.
14:41No, don't worry. I'll take them from you, Taya.
14:43OK.
14:44So he just wanted to know where we all were that night?
14:48Oh, yeah. Well, I said we were in all night.
14:50Hey, are we ready?
14:52Is he, er, ready?
14:55Surprise!
14:57Whoa! What are you lot doing here?
14:59The man is literally walking in, carrying his own birthday cake.
15:02It couldn't be less surprise.
15:04Yeah, she's been trying to get me. Always gives herself away.
15:08You want to work on your poker face?
15:10Hey, if I hadn't have left my laptop open, I'd have had you, good and proper.
15:14Mm, thank you. Thank you, everyone.
15:16And, er, this is a big cake, or are you going to...?
15:18Oh! Whoo!
15:20Good lad.
15:21Good speech.
15:23Hey, phone's away.
15:24All right, Dad.
15:25Quite snippy.
15:27Here, let me give you a hand.
15:30I think the police intervention has made people a bit tense.
15:35Yeah, not the best timing. Good job on the cake, though.
15:38Oh, it's really Ronnie Creamy's.
15:40Ronnie was having cat's kittens every time we went round a corner.
15:44You know what he's like with his upholstery.
15:47I can't believe he let Joel put his stuff in there.
15:50I mean, it's not like he's got masses of boot space.
15:53Hang on, Joel?
15:55Yeah, when you two were helping Joel move out of his flat.
15:58Oh, yeah, no, that was my car.
16:00Your car?
16:02Yeah, the chest of drawers went in my car.
16:04Can you imagine it fitting in Uncle Ronnie's?
16:06No, I can't, actually.
16:08Yeah, well, that makes more sense, then.
16:11Right.
16:13I'll take these over.
16:18Hiya.
16:20Why's he smelling ours?
16:22Because he's going out on the grounds.
16:24You know, when you say that he was poking about your finances,
16:28what do you mean?
16:30I won't say poking about, more just...
16:34..asking questions, really, offering advice. Why?
16:40What if Jesse was the one that took Damon's money?
16:43That's quite a leap. I know, I know.
16:46But he turns up sniffing around exactly when the money goes missing.
16:50And come on, somebody took it.
16:52And if it's not him, then who?
16:54And don't even say Daniel.
16:56You're basing this whole money going missing in a lock-up thing
17:00on one phone call from Damon.
17:03I mean, Damon.
17:05I mean, let's face it, if we were doing a top five of your dodgy boyfriends,
17:08he's straight in at number one. Why? Shut up, David.
17:11And if it's not dodgy Damon, it's his even dodgier brother.
17:15Harvey.
17:16And if it isn't him, it's one of many dodgy friends at the bar.
17:19All right, fine. I get the point. I get the point.
17:21Yeah, don't worry. Yeah, I'm on my way now.
17:24Yeah.
17:25I'm sorry, I've got to run.
17:27But I've settled up with Jan.
17:29Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm coming, yeah.
17:31Oh, no, that's not dodgy, not in the slightest.
17:34Where are you going?
17:35What do you think I'm doing?
17:37He's hiding something. I'm going to see what it is.
17:39Are you mad?
17:42Oh, thanks, love.
17:44Thanks, love.
17:45I'm on my own and I always struggle with that best barrel.
17:47Yeah, it's fine.
17:49How's Gemma?
17:50Well, you know, she's taking it day by day.
17:54Yeah, I do know. I mean, it's been three years since Johnny.
17:59Oh, of course, yeah.
18:01Sorry, Gemma.
18:02Oh, I'm fine.
18:04You know, I'd usually tell her to take all the time she likes,
18:07but we are short-staffed.
18:10Right.
18:11And I can't keep her shifts open forever.
18:15What, so you're saying that she needs to get over her twin dying
18:17cos she might lose her job?
18:18No, no, no, no, no, no.
18:20I'm not saying that at all.
18:22What I'm saying is that I know more than most
18:25that, you know, the hurt, it's not going to stop any time soon.
18:28So if she just wanted to start with the odd hour,
18:30just to ease herself...
18:31Oh, I'm sorry, Jenny.
18:32It's a no. She's...
18:34It's too soon.
18:35OK.
18:38I'm sorry.
18:39I'm sorry.
19:02Spray.
19:06Oh, hey, Sam.
19:07Hi.
19:08Hi. Can I have a quick word?
19:10Look, I'll take over.
19:12Sam, will you put my coat into the office?
19:14Once again with the child leader.
19:17Everything OK?
19:18Yeah, listen, we've just had a big talk and I've made a decision.
19:23I think that me and you should move out of the flat.
19:25I think it's only fair that Nick moves back in and he can be with Sam.
19:29OK.
19:30Yeah.
19:31I just think it's right that Sam's with his dad
19:33and he doesn't have to move out again.
19:34Yeah, no, I totally get that, yeah.
19:36But, OK, where were you thinking...?
19:37Well, actually, I've already found somewhere.
19:41Craig's going to move in with Kirk and keep him company,
19:44you know, now that Beth's gone.
19:45Oh, I heard Kirk say he was lonely.
19:47Right, so the salon flat's free?
19:49Yeah.
19:50Doesn't Tyrone own that?
19:51Have you talked to him yet?
19:52Listen, look, this is really hard to say.
19:56What? What is it?
19:58All right, don't take this the wrong way, but...
20:01Well, I sort of want to live on my own for a bit.
20:04And, to be honest,
20:06I'm not sure I'm in the right headspace to share with you at the minute.
20:13So, you two.
20:15Don't think I haven't seen the looks.
20:18What looks?
20:19Between you both,
20:21eh, Dee Dee,
20:22and he has the temerity to question my poker face.
20:26Temerity?
20:28Michael told me you went in his car to Joel's flat,
20:31so why's that addressing your sat-nav?
20:33Listen, I don't think this is the time to talk about it.
20:35No, she's right.
20:37We need to talk about this.
20:38No, we don't.
20:39Ed, they're going to keep on pestering me until I do.
20:42So, anyway, here goes.
20:44Speech!
20:45Speech!
20:47To the love of my life.
20:49Oh, no.
20:51I am truly sorry you've had the misfortune
20:54to get involved with an absolute rotter like me.
20:58You might not have pulled off a surprise party.
21:01I was surprised.
21:02But you surprise me every day.
21:04By sticking with me.
21:06Despite my grumpiness and, er,
21:09the surprises I throw your way.
21:11So, um, thank you.
21:14And thank you all for coming.
21:16Right, on by.
21:17Er, who's for more champagne?
21:19Ooh, er, no second for me, please.
21:21All right.
21:22Well, you tell her everything, all right?
21:26Give me a hand.
21:27All right.
21:42He's not here.
21:43This was a stupid idea.
21:44We can't give up now.
21:45We need to find him.
21:46Let's go.
21:47I'm not going anywhere.
21:49We're not letting him get away with this.
21:58Dad.
22:01You went to see him that night, didn't you?
22:03Both of you.
22:05You've got to believe me.
22:06We didn't lay a finger on him.
22:09But, yeah, we were there that night.
22:12We were going to drag him down to the cob shop.
22:15But when we got there, he didn't answer.
22:17So...
22:18I'm sorry.
22:19I'm sorry.
22:20I'm sorry.
22:21I'm sorry.
22:22I'm sorry.
22:23I'm sorry.
22:24I'm sorry.
22:25I'm sorry.
22:27I'm broken.
22:29You're broken?
22:31We brought a crowbar.
22:33Then what did you do?
22:36We went home.
22:37That's it?
22:39We went home with our tails between our legs?
22:43Swore each other to secrecy.
22:45Yeah.
22:46Again.
22:47I know.
22:48Hey, do you want me to bring those over?
22:49No, we're fine.
22:50Thanks, Nick.
22:53And that's it?
22:54That's it? After that, you called it off and came home?
22:57That's it.
22:58What, you don't believe me?
23:01Would you blame me? You've lied to me this long.
23:05I understand why you didn't tell the police.
23:07I mean, the whole thing is beyond stupid.
23:09It's macho nonsense, but I get that.
23:12What I don't get is why you didn't tell me straight away.
23:16We're together, remember?
23:18We're meant to sort stuff out like this together.
23:21I know.
23:22I'm, er... I'm sorry.
23:24Go on, then.
23:26Shout at me.
23:29I was half expecting you to force us to go to the police.
23:32I can't force you to do anything, Dad.
23:36Hey, look, I didn't mean to ambush you before.
23:39No, I completely get it. I mean, you're right, it's for the best.
23:43Does Sam know? Yeah. Yeah, he's fine with it.
23:46Look, I would have run it past you first, but he brought it up.
23:49No, honestly, it's fine. It makes total sense.
23:53And, yeah, you know, as long as you're happy with it.
23:55Yeah, yeah, of course.
23:57Hey, I'm going to need you to help me pack.
24:00Are you sure you can't stay as well?
24:03All of us.
24:04Oh, Sam.
24:06No, it's win-win, isn't it? Come on, you're going to get two fridges to raid,
24:09double the number of streaming subscriptions,
24:11spare room to bob all your stuff in. Come on.
24:14Yeah, see, a telescope out the window, you've got an observatory.
24:18Oh, you are kidding!
24:21Oh! Oh, watch out! Oh, my gosh!
24:24I am so sorry.
24:26Sarah? Are you all right?
24:29Nothing's broken.
24:33You OK?
24:35Will you be? When me mum finds out you're nipping off,
24:37having secret meetings with other women?
24:42KNOCK AT DOOR
24:44KNOCK AT DOOR
24:49I'm coming.
24:53Hey. Hiya.
24:55Erm, I can't be long, cos I'm short-staffed.
24:58I didn't mean that in a passag way.
25:00I just... I just... I wanted to clear the air.
25:03You know, cos I didn't mean in any way
25:06that I was somehow threatening to fire you. I'm sorry.
25:10I was just, you know, really stressed cos of the barrel.
25:13And, you know, I know you're on bereavement leave, which is good.
25:17I mean, it's not... good.
25:19But I just want you to know that you need to take as much time as you need
25:23and just don't feel like you have to hurry back.
25:26Right.
25:28What you on about?
25:31Has Chesney not talked to you?
25:34Well, not since this morning, no.
25:36Oh, right. Erm...
25:38Well, I...
25:40I rather clumsily... Passag?
25:43..told him that I couldn't hold on to your schist forever
25:46and that I hoped you'd be back at work soon.
25:49Right.
25:52Yeah, he has been mithering, actually.
25:54Well, he's... he's just looking out for you.
25:57Yeah. I think I am ready, you know.
26:00I could do some shifts next week, maybe.
26:03Are you... are you sure?
26:05Yeah. Yeah, I'm sure. I am.
26:11Are you OK?
26:13Bill, when you've got a sec, please, Nick.
26:15Oi, what are you doing? You're not paying.
26:17It's your birthday.
26:18Yeah, Nick, if he goes anywhere near that Bill,
26:20I'm going to flame this place so hard, I'm going to improvise it.
26:23Oh, er, OK.
26:24Well, look, it's my birthday, so I get to decide who pays, right?
26:29I don't think it works like that. It definitely doesn't.
26:31Er, thank you. There you go, Michael.
26:33Yep.
26:34Hey, hang on a minute. I organise this. I'm paying.
26:37No, you're not. Nope.
26:39OK, let's just split it evenly, OK? Everyone except for me.
26:43No, no, no.
26:44All right, then. Get your little calculator out.
26:46I don't have a little calculator. I've got a phone.
26:48Hey, you don't need a calculator. Give it to you.
26:52Er, listen, you don't have to do that.
26:54Just part of... Just...
26:56They're not listening.
26:58You're better off keeping yourself out of this one, mate.
27:00Hey. Very quiet.
27:02Erm, yeah, sorry, I've got a bit of a headache,
27:05so I might head home, actually.
27:07Hey, hey, don't go, look.
27:09Look, we're really sorry, we're stupid.
27:11We should have told you before.
27:13Yeah. Yeah, and we told you everything, all right?
27:16There's nothing else, if that's what you're worried about.
27:18Me and Ronnie went back to ours with our tails between our legs
27:21and then, er, Ronnie went home.
27:25Ain't that right, man?
27:27Yeah, of course. Why do you ask me like that for?
27:30What do you mean? Right, wrong. You know I did, I told you.
27:33Well, I know, but I was just making you say it to confirm for Dee Dee.
27:37Why do I need to confirm?
27:39Flipping heck.
27:41No, go on, you don't believe me.
27:43Yeah, of course I believe you.
27:45Look, it's fine, guys.
27:47Do you want to try that again?
27:49Look, can you blame me? I mean, you were really het up.
27:51We both were and we both called it off.
27:53What, you think I went back there, finished off the job?
27:56Oh, my days, of course not.
27:58Everything all right, lads?
28:00Yeah, everything's, er, fine, mate.
28:02I was just saying, I've got a bit of a headache, so I think I'm going to skip the phone.
28:05What?
28:06I've got some paracetamol if you want.
28:08I'm OK, sir, sorry.
28:10No, that's too much, look.
28:11It's fine, I'll put it towards the tip.
28:16Now see what you've done.
28:18It's been a tough few days, I'll check in on her later.
28:24Wait, wait.
28:26This is my ex, Jane, and it was just a hug.
28:29Oh, just a hug.
28:31Yeah, right, of course it was.
28:32And what's my mum?
28:34Yeah, I was getting with her just to pass the time until you could get with this one.
28:37This one?
28:38Oh, wait a minute, don't tell me.
28:40Your mum's Eileen, right?
28:42No, my mum's Gail.
28:43Who's Gail?
28:44Well, she's Eileen's sworn nemesis.
28:47It's very complicated.
28:49And you're with Gail?
28:50Well, er, not with, with, no.
28:53Oh.
28:54But I am with her mother.
28:57Oh, yeah, with my mother.
28:58And going on nice little trips away with my mother.
29:01There was only a night in Whitby.
29:03Oh, nice.
29:04I think it's not even dry in the divorce papers and you're on a dirty weekend with Whitby woman Gail.
29:08It was hardly dirty.
29:09Oh, I don't even want to know.
29:10So, was he cheating on you as well then?
29:12Like Eileen, is that why you divorced him?
29:14Just hang on.
29:15No, no.
29:16Jesse's an idiot, but, well, he's a good man.
29:20If you must know, it was me that was cheating when he was inside.
29:23Inside, like prison?
29:25Look, please, please.
29:27Can we just concentrate on the good man bit?
29:30I'm sorry.
29:31I'll be in touch about the house, Jesse.
29:33Okay, look, but, please, I was going to tell you about Gail.
29:41What?
29:42Why are you even here?
29:44Because I've been following you.
29:45Yes, of course you have.
29:47Why are you lot so suspicious of me?
29:49Oh, come on.
29:50We both know.
29:51Well, we both know what?
29:52You know.
29:53I don't.
29:54The money.
29:55What money?
29:56You mean Gail's money?
29:57No, the...
30:00You don't know?
30:01What the hell are you talking about?
30:04You don't know?
30:25Yes?
30:29Dad, I'm fine, I just...
30:32Please, Dad, I...
30:35Okay, okay, it's open.
30:54Dee Dee, I'm so, so sorry.
30:57It's just a headache, Dad.
30:59Yeah, you said.
31:00Look, I brought some pills.
31:02Look, you take these.
31:03Go sit down, I'll go get some water.
31:10Listen, I'm serious.
31:11Scream at me, shout at me, I deserve it, all right?
31:14What me and Ronnie did was stupid.
31:16Whatever we thought of Joel, there's no excuse.
32:00I'm so sorry we didn't tell you straight away.
32:06I already knew, Dad.
32:10What?
32:13That night, I...
32:15I heard you and Uncle Ronnie arguing in the yard when he dropped you home.
32:20Oh, love.
32:23I should have said something sooner.
32:26I don't know why I didn't, I just...
32:29Maybe part of me was glad.
32:32You know, glad that my family, my dad,
32:34had gone out to make sure he was going to pay for everything he'd done.
32:37Listen, we didn't do anything, I swear.
32:39What we said in the bistro was the truth.
32:41When we realised what we were doing was so stupid, we went home.
32:44Ronnie, too.
32:45He was more fired up than me, but...
32:48But we didn't do anything.
32:50I know, Dad.
32:52I believe you.
32:55I know I've lied to you in the past.
32:57It's OK.
32:59I believe you.
33:00Yeah, but you spent the last few days thinking.
33:03I'm so, so sorry.
33:07I am so sorry.
33:12Air fryer.
33:13Oh, nicks.
33:15Has he ever used it?
33:17Yeah, fair point, actually, I love it.
33:21Oh, no way.
33:22As if you've still got this ancient toasted sandwich maker.
33:25This takes me back.
33:27I haven't used it in years, it doesn't even work properly.
33:29Dad got that from some bloke from the market.
33:33You talk to Les lately?
33:35Yeah, I spoke to him a couple of weeks ago.
33:37He was drunk, obviously.
33:39And he expected me to summarise what had been happening in my life
33:42since the last time we spoke.
33:44Did you?
33:46No, I said nothing much had happened.
33:48Could hardly hear him, anyway.
33:49I think he was at some wrestling show.
33:51Wrestling?
33:52Yeah, he said something about meeting up for a drink,
33:55but when I messaged back...
33:57He didn't reply.
33:58Yeah, pretty standard line of communication with my dad all round.
34:01Sam, could you do us a favour?
34:03Somebody's left a big cardboard box outside,
34:05near the recycling, near the residents' car park.
34:07Could you just go and nab it for me?
34:09Yeah, of course.
34:10Unless there's rats in it.
34:12Then, no.
34:20So, he's OK about you moving out, then?
34:23Well, he says he is, but you never really know what he's thinking.
34:29I'm sorry for springing all this on you.
34:31No, come on, I totally get it.
34:33You're right, you know, we're better off with a bit of space.
34:36Yeah.
34:37Especially now you've recovered.
34:39Yeah?
34:41Yeah, and things aren't really great between me and Nick, so...
34:45Well, do you know what?
34:46I think it'll be good for me to live on my own.
34:49I've not lived on my own for ages,
34:50and I've always had to rely on somebody else,
34:52so I think it'll be good for me.
34:54Yeah, you're right.
34:55Yeah, I mean, me too.
34:56In fact, I'm going to get online, right now,
34:58and, er, I'm going to go and talk to Nick.
35:01I'm going to get online, right now,
35:02and, er, I'm going to see what's out there.
35:04Yeah.
35:08Hey.
35:11Is Bethany back yet?
35:12Er, no, hopefully tomorrow,
35:14but will you send her some more TikToks, cos it does cheer her up.
35:18Thanks.
35:19Right.
35:20Hello?
35:21Hiya.
35:22Is Mum in?
35:24No, she's staying at Jesse's.
35:26Who, by the way, said you ambushed him with his axe.
35:30Yeah, well, I think he was being dodgy in the pub.
35:33Yeah, well, you'd know all about dodgy.
35:35Oh, David, shut up.
35:36It's not me to shut up.
35:37You're the one who called round here.
35:39Did you know that Jesse's been to prison?
35:43No.
35:44What for?
35:45He doesn't want to say.
35:47Well, my money's on Harvey.
35:49Maybe.
35:50Hopefully.
35:52What do you mean, hopefully?
35:53Because if it's not Harvey,
35:55he's going to be pretty knocked that the money's gone missing, isn't he?
35:58What if he comes sniffing round here for it?
36:01Oh, great, so we're not only going to be homeless,
36:03we're going to be the target of Weatherfield's kingpin of crime.
36:29Is she OK?
36:32She's not great, no.
36:35Turns out she heard us come back to the house that night.
36:39So when she found out, we told the police we didn't leave the house.
36:42She thought we might have.
36:44Exactly.
36:45Enough to give anyone a headache.
36:47Hey, Ed's back.
36:49Oh, here he is.
36:50Funny how you sneaked up on me.
36:51I thought you'd never come back.
36:53I thought you'd never come back.
36:55Hey, Ed's back.
36:56Oh, here he is.
36:57Funny how you sneaked out late with your round.
37:01Well, is Dee Dee all right?
37:03All right.
37:04Look, Sam, you...
37:06We've got something to tell you.
37:11Come on, brother dearest.
37:13I think Harvey needs to take you home.
37:15Oh, do you think?
37:16I'm not leaving.
37:17Not unless we're getting a kebab.
37:20In which case, I'm getting a kebab.
37:22Ah, thought you'd never ask.
37:24Um, kebab?
37:26Eat it here.
37:28Drop.
37:31All right.
37:32Right, go on.
37:33What is it?
37:37Oh, hi, mate.
37:38I'm not with you.
37:39No, I convinced her I wasn't going to bleed to death if I came by myself.
37:42OK, look, get out the way of the door.
37:44Here.
37:45Sorry, I know I shouldn't be by here,
37:47but it turns out we're out of black peppercorn
37:50and we're having eggs.
37:52And you can't really have eggs without them.
37:54Oh, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, sure.
37:56Yeah, hang on, um...
37:58Is everything all right, though?
37:59Yeah.
38:00It's good that Leanne's just moving round the corner, isn't it?
38:03Yeah.
38:04Auntie Toy has been helping her pack.
38:06Oh, well, that's good.
38:07She's nicking the earth, right?
38:09Well, predictable.
38:10And planning on moving out tomorrow.
38:13Wow.
38:14That's quick.
38:15Yeah.
38:17Next year I'll have the anniversary of losing two mums on two consecutive days.
38:23Oh.
38:26Mate.
38:27No, sorry.
38:28That was meant as a joke.
38:30Honestly, I get that it's for the best.
38:33And like you say, she's just round the corner.
38:36You're not losing Leanne, you know.
38:38Look how close she is to Simon.
38:40Yeah, I know.
38:41I know, honestly.
38:43It was just a bad joke.
38:45You'll be able to see her whenever you want.
38:47Yeah.
38:48I know.
38:50Pepper?
38:52Yeah, yeah.
38:53OK, yeah.
38:55There we go.
38:57See you later.
38:58Yeah.
38:59Enjoy your eggs.
39:03I don't believe this.
39:05No, actually, what am I saying?
39:06Of course I believe it.
39:07You playing the hard man acting, you lying about it.
39:10Look, Michael.
39:11No, he's right.
39:12I deserved that.
39:13I held my hands up.
39:14We both did.
39:16What we did was stupid.
39:19Forgot your keys.
39:22Just got a craving for some crisps.
39:25Do you fancy a brew?
39:27Go on, then.
39:30You realise I...
39:32What's the word?
39:33I perjured myself because of you.
39:36I told him that you were in all night.
39:38No, you said you thought he was in all night.
39:41You were asleep.
39:43OK, great.
39:44Good to know I can rely on a technicality when it comes to call.
39:48I'm guessing Dee Dee's told you to go to the police?
39:50She's...
39:52...agreed to keep it quiet.
39:54We both have.
39:55What?
39:57Nothing happened.
39:58So?
39:59Sorry.
40:00Wait, run this past me again.
40:02Dee Dee's agreed to cover up your little vigilante justice spree.
40:06And you're OK with it, are you?
40:07Well, like Ron said, nothing's happened.
40:09Apart from Joel being murdered.
40:10Hey, keep your voice down.
40:13Look, I believe you.
40:15I know you had nothing to do with it.
40:17Glad to know.
40:18Yeah, but you broke into his house the night he got murdered.
40:20That's a massive coincidence.
40:22You think anyone else will believe you didn't do it?
40:24Which is why none of us can say anything.
40:30I didn't think you'd still be awake.
40:32Can't sleep.
40:35You OK?
40:38Mm-hm.
40:42Jenny come round before.
40:45Right.
40:46Look, I'm...
40:48I'm sorry I shouldn't have gone behind your back.
40:50No, it's fine.
40:52I told her I'd go back and do some shifts next week.
40:55Part-time, you know.
40:58This is where you're gonna have a go at me for interfering?
41:01No.
41:03I get it.
41:06It just...
41:09...feels weird just carrying on like normal.
41:13Well...
41:14...that's why you don't have to, Gem.
41:17I do.
41:18We need the money.
41:20And I can't just keep sitting here while you're working so hard
41:23you're gonna have to keep your eyes open.
41:26And I'm fine.
41:28Are you, though? Really?
41:31Yeah.
41:33Well, I've gotta be. You know it's gonna change, is it?
41:37And he's not coming back.
41:40And I can't just be sad forever, can I?
41:45Gemma, come here.
41:54Sorry it's late, but this can't wait till tomorrow.
41:58Right.
42:00How are you so calm?
42:02I thought you'd be marching him down to the police station.
42:04Because they didn't do it.
42:07Okay, but do you really think the police,
42:09the same police who locked up Roy Cropper for murder,
42:12are gonna look at the dad and the uncle of the victim's ex-fiancée
42:16and believe that?
42:19You believe them?
42:20That they broke in and changed their minds?
42:22Of course I do. Don't you?
42:26Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Look...
42:29I can't deal with this right now. I need to go to bed.
42:33Someone was looking for Joel that evening.
42:36And whoever that was finished the job.
42:42Okay.
43:12I'm sorry.
43:23I'm sorry.
43:26I'm sorry.
43:42I'm sorry.
