00:00Now, nobody's saying the Chatsworth estate is the garden of Eden, but it's been a good
00:12home to us, to me, Frank Gallagher, and my kids, who I'm proud of, because every single
00:18one of them reminds me a little of me.
00:22They can all think for themselves, which they've got me to thank for.
00:26Quick, leggy!
00:27Lip, who's a bit of a gobshite, which is why nobody calls him Philip anymore.
00:32Ian, a lot like his mam, which is handy for the others, because she's disappeared in the
00:36thin air.
00:37And Carl, we don't let him grow his hair for two reasons.
00:40One, it makes it stand on end and makes him look like Toya.
00:42Two, nits love him.
00:44Debbie, sent by God, total angel.
00:47You have to check your chains, but she'll go miles out of the way to do your favour.
00:51Plus, they could be him, which could be a star someday.
00:55Sheila, he burned.
00:56Couldn't be happier.
00:57One plate short of a full cell, eh?
00:59And fantastic neighbours.
01:02Kevin, Veronica, lend you anything.
01:04Well, almost anything.
01:05Carol and Marty, the lodgers from hell.
01:08Last of the lonely hearts and the psychologist's wet dream.
01:11Still nobody's perfect.
01:13But all of them to a man.
01:15No, first and foremost, one of the most vital necessities in life is they know how to throw
01:20a party.
01:22Scat off!
01:23Me first stag night, the barman tells me a joke.
01:27Kid goes up to his dad, said he's heard that in some countries a man doesn't even know
01:31his wife till he marries her.
01:32His dad tells him that happens in every fucking country's son.
01:36I mean, it's true, isn't it?
01:37I mean, if I'd have known Monica was going to be a lesser, I'd have never have married
01:41her, would I?
01:42Well, yeah, probably.
01:43I mean, I'd have thought I was in with a, you know, flesh sandwich.
01:47But the point I'm making is, you just don't know, do you?
01:51You know, spin the fucking wheel.
01:53So that's the point of a stag do, isn't it?
01:55Because like the chief roman said, venit vidit vodka.
01:59None of my fucking senses, boys.
02:01I'm coming in.
02:02Well, that fucking Marty!
02:04Right away, mate.
02:31No, Sheila!
02:34Tell me it's not ground force.
02:36It's for the conservatory, Frank.
02:37I'm going to have frosted glass and blackout blinds when I get a bit insidey-outsidey.
02:42Hello?
02:42The garden's only ten feet two.
02:44What the fuck do we need a conservatory for?
02:46The wedding!
02:47You know what I'm like.
02:49Five hours out of here and I'll go completely doodlally.
02:51Oh, poor fucking wigwam up for someone.
02:54Too much daylight!
02:56How many times, eh, if you cold turkey your tablets, I need telling because A, they're worth money,
03:03B, they're a magnet for every fucking bronco for miles.
03:07How the hell much is all this costing?
03:10Eight thousand plus fat.
03:12Probably not too few quid off for signing on the spot.
03:14There!
03:15There you go!
03:15I said I wanted a conservatory, Frank.
03:20It's my money.
03:21You haven't got eight grand.
03:23I've got a mortgage.
03:24Three, two, one back in the room.
03:26Fuck's a remortgage costing me?
03:28Us, you.
03:29He nuts, Frank.
03:30So I paid off the house last year.
03:32But if I'm going to be honest, I miss filing all those bits of paper they used to send me.
03:36So I took the money out and everything and hid it in here.
03:41Well, you always said I shouldn't let people take advantage.
03:47Come here, you.
03:48God, you are a tall one-off.
03:56Why don't you let Frank take care of that, eh?
03:59OK.
04:01So how much should be over-quoted?
04:03Three grand, four...
04:03Let's say four.
04:05Aye, four grand.
04:05Split it, 50-50.
04:07Gives a receipt for the lot.
04:09Job's eight grand.
04:10On your fucking bike, Tom Toe.
04:12You seen Watchdog?
04:13Yeah.
04:14Presenter.
04:14Seen his brother.
04:15Twins.
04:16He's Scottish.
04:17Phone a friend or fuck off.
04:21We running on this business here.
04:23Pay our taxes.
04:24All above board.
04:25I've just pulled a cake out if we're all done and dusted.
04:28Beer, anyone?
04:29Gin and tonic?
04:30I'm all right, thanks, love.
04:31I need to have enough.
04:34Where the fuck do you dig them up?
04:36Adverting the church cassette.
04:42Right.
04:44Well, Frank's telling me.
04:46Veronica!
04:49Those tights you gave me have got a hole in.
04:52Not now, Mum.
04:53Oh, what's the matter with her?
04:54I lost a five without her.
04:55I said not now!
05:00I've just found out my IVS failed again.
05:04I don't know why you want kids anyway.
05:06Painting the bloody house, if you ask me.
05:08Bleed you dry.
05:09Take away the best shares of your life.
05:11And then they grow up to be a total waste.
05:12I'll tell you what, Mum.
05:15Don't mince your words.
05:16Say what you really feel.
05:18I mean, it's not much better from where I'm standing, is it?
05:21I mean, what did I get?
05:23Gin of the fucking jungle.
05:24But with a beard!
05:25Wedding dress, done.
05:33Order flowers, done.
05:35Yeah.
05:35Wedding cake.
05:37Martha Stewart, berry basket cake with wooden dowel supports, if I can get my wooden dowels.
05:40If not, I'll just have to use toilet roll holders.
05:44And you're making that yourself, so done.
05:46Right, that brings us to bridesmaids.
05:48And you'll obviously want Karen as one.
05:50Me?
05:50What, bridesmaid?
05:51You must be joking.
05:53What?
05:54So that just leaves me and Liam as page boy.
05:56I've just had to turn your water off, love, while we're doing digging.
05:59Okay.
05:59Right, so that's me and Liam, and I need a bridesmaid dress, so I've found one.
06:04Digging!
06:05What does he mean, digging?
06:09I don't understand.
06:10Why are you digging?
06:11For the foundations.
06:12Yeah, the ground solid.
06:14Just put it on there, can't you?
06:15Well, it won't stand up.
06:17You've only got to dig a few feet.
06:18I said no.
06:19I don't want digging.
06:21But if we don't dig, you can't have a conservatory.
06:23All right, just forget it then.
06:24What?
06:24I said forget it.
06:25I don't want a conservatory.
06:26You're joking or what?
06:27I've booked time in for this job.
06:29And you can't have a refund.
06:30And keep the money.
06:31And the cake too, if you want it.
06:34Look, I've bought out gear now.
06:36Let's just get on with it.
06:42Well, that's it then, innit?
06:44No more freebies on the NHS.
06:47I mean, Kev sure as shit ain't got two grand for going private, so...
06:51Looks like game over.
06:54Is it still Kev's sperm that's the problem?
06:57Still doing backstroke.
06:59Thing is, you never wanted them till bloody mouth almighty started going on about it.
07:05And I was desperate.
07:09I ain't got to tell them that they failed again.
07:11I mean, when they've been handpicked and scored out of 100.
07:15Kids like Mandy McGuire can get pregnant from just fucking sneezing.
07:20Who's that for?
07:21Have you ever thought about having any?
07:27Yeah.
07:29Dunno.
07:30A lot of work, aren't they?
07:32I don't want you alone.
07:44Leave it alone!
07:46Leave me back here alone!
07:48Leave it alone!
07:50It's all right, don't.
07:51Please, don't let me do it.
07:51Hey, what's going on?
07:53Sheila, Sheila!
07:54I don't want it!
07:56I don't want it!
07:57It's all right.
07:57No, dig me.
07:58No, no, it's all right.
07:59No, dig me.
08:00I don't want them to do it.
08:01No, no, no, no, no.
08:03It'll be all right.
08:04All right, they'll leave it alone.
08:06Fucking hell!
08:07I'm so sorry.
08:08I'm so sorry, Frank.
08:10It's just so...
08:11It's so...
08:12All right, all right.
08:13It's all right.
08:14There's no need to...
08:15Frank, there's something I need to tell you.
08:18I can't marry you without telling you.
08:20You're not a bloke, are you?
08:22No, of course not.
08:24No.
08:24I...
08:25No.
08:25I was married before...
08:28before Eddie...
08:30Before Eddie...
08:31Karen's dad, Eddie?
08:32Yeah.
08:33Sheldon.
08:34But he died.
08:37I thought I did that.
08:37Oh, well, yeah.
08:41Well, you know...
08:43Some of these blokes these days don't take care of themselves, do they?
08:46You know, no exercise, pissing it off.
08:48No.
08:50But, er...
08:52I mean, if it's putting you off getting married, then she...
08:55No, no, no, it's not that.
08:57It's just...
08:59He's buried...
09:00in the garden.
09:07Are you serious?
09:09No coughing?
09:11Nothing?
09:13She's just wrapped him in a doily.
09:16Said a few Hail Marys and then shoved him six feet under.
09:19It's what he would have wanted.
09:21She'd reckon us.
09:22Can you give us another pint, Kev?
09:24And a couple of these.
09:25They're a bit fucking weird, though.
09:27Of course it's a bit fucking weird.
09:30A Michael Jackson video on your back garden.
09:32Stiff under the...
09:33What's it, boss?
09:34It's hardly Mr and Mrs, is it?
09:36Hey.
09:37Do you reckon Karen knows?
09:38Oh, hey, Karen!
09:40Don't tell her, you stupid bastard!
09:43It's not like he's a dad.
09:45So, what did Sheila say about it?
09:46I mean, is she all right?
09:47Well, the fuck should I know.
09:48Hey, hey, so, er, so would Sheila work in the hospital?
10:01She could have been tonight, shall we?
10:02Well, it might be tomorrow.
10:03You know what they like.
10:04I'll, er...
10:05I'll take him home, shall I?
10:06Make sure Sheila's all right.
10:07Find it where I can.
10:09Come on, Toshpots!
10:17Cheers.
10:17Oh, look at that, Liam, eh?
10:19You'd look sweet in that.
10:20Huh!
10:21Oi!
10:22He's a spunk-faced, short-arse excite, then.
10:25Nope.
10:26Not again.
10:27What does he want?
10:29Where?
10:30Oh, go on, Debs.
10:31Is your boyfriend in here you can tell us?
10:32You're joking, aren't you?
10:34He's only about four.
10:36Some tell I've gone out.
10:41Fuck off!
10:45Thanks for bringing him home.
10:46It's all right.
10:48Well, I thought, you know, I'd come and see how it's going, you know.
10:50A whip wedding and that.
10:51Sorry, I haven't got much to offer you.
10:53I could do your vodka.
10:56So is that where he's buried, then?
10:58What?
10:58Oh, I'm sorry.
11:00It's just what Frank said and, well,
11:03I mean, only to us and I...
11:04Well, what the hell happened?
11:06Well, let me, uh, let me do those.
11:11There's not really much to do, actually.
11:14I just couldn't handle the funeral.
11:17It was the agoraphobia.
11:19And when he fell downstairs and killed himself,
11:22I thought the garden's just as good a place as any.
11:24And he loved that garden.
11:27He loved it.
11:28And he used to sit up there and point where to plant things.
11:33Fell down the stairs?
11:34I thought he had heart attack.
11:37He did.
11:38He did.
11:38He did.
11:39After he fell down the stairs,
11:41I thought maybe I should have done him a headstone,
11:43but it would have spoilt the symmetry
11:45and he wouldn't have liked that.
11:46He wouldn't have liked it.
11:48I mean, there wasn't any time.
11:49I didn't even have time to take off his jewellery.
11:52He didn't like me to touch it anyway.
11:54That's why I can't make gold.
11:56That's why I have to wear a fake or platinum.
12:00Maybe I should have phoned someone,
12:02but I knew he was dead
12:03because he didn't get up towards the swing.
12:06The swing.
12:08What did Frank say?
12:10What did he say?
12:11I'm much gold, Sheila.
12:22You look nice, Carol.
12:23I always think animal prints suit you.
12:25Veronica's put you up to this, haven't she?
12:27No, of course not.
12:28Hmm.
12:29Well, whatever it is you're wanting,
12:30I'm not biting.
12:32Hi, Debbie.
12:33Doing a good trade on that confetti.
12:37Waste not fucking, want not?
12:41The thing is,
12:43it's not actually me wanting something.
12:45It's Sheila.
12:46She's ever so stressed about the wedding
12:47and she really wants me to be a bridesmaid, but...
12:50The answer's no.
12:53Oh, go on, Carol, please.
12:55I'm not nicking you a bridesmaid dress.
12:57I got caution the last time I tried something.
13:00I can't take that chance again.
13:01All right, Yvonne.
13:05Just a pack of gum for me.
13:07Three twenty.
13:08Take what you want, Dave, for bearded ladies.
13:10We'll ask where it can.
13:11Oh.
13:24Why are you following me?
13:26I've got racing ninjas.
13:27Look, Brian, the thing is,
13:32I don't want to be rude or anything.
13:34I'm just not really interested.
13:36It's nothing personal or anything.
13:38It's just, it's all about chemicals in your brain.
13:41And you can't help those.
13:42Who you've got them for,
13:44and who you haven't.
13:45And with you, I just haven't.
13:48Sorry.
13:50No hard feelings, eh?
13:51You can have me skateboard.
13:54If you like me kiss, yeah?
13:55I don't want a skateboard.
14:00What I want is a bridesmaid dress.
14:11What'd you do that for?
14:13She's buried him with a load of gold.
14:15He was covered in it.
14:17Rings, watches, teeth.
14:18Must be worth a fortune.
14:22What the fuck's that got to do with me?
14:24I want you to dig him up.
14:25Are you off your fucking...
14:26Dig him up?
14:28It's not Brookside.
14:29He's a dead person.
14:31Well, exactly.
14:31He doesn't need it, does he, eh?
14:33If we're years ago,
14:34he'll only be a pack of bones.
14:36Oh, and what?
14:37You don't think he's entitled to everlasting...
14:41You know, fucking...
14:42What's it?
14:42A man's soul has a right to be left in peace, doesn't he?
14:45Or what is the world coming to?
14:47Well, you know what?
14:48You can say a few prayers when you bury him again.
14:52Come on, Frank.
14:53Frank.
14:54Kev's cousin can fence it.
14:56All we need to do is get rid of Sheila for the night.
15:00Dig him up.
15:01Split it 50-50.
15:03Oh.
15:03It's yours by right.
15:05Yeah, but...
15:06Is it?
15:07Yeah, of course it is.
15:09Cos...
15:10Well, Sheldon were married to Sheila.
15:12Yeah.
15:13Which makes her his next of kin.
15:14Right.
15:15You're married to Sheila.
15:16Well, near enough.
15:18So that makes you up.
15:21I really need this money, Frank.
15:23And don't pretend you don't.
15:25Money Sheila's spending on this wedding...
15:27It's payback.
15:29It's better.
15:30Oh!
15:31You're awake!
15:31Oh!
15:34Oh!
15:50Oh!
15:55That was a bit hardcore.
15:56What time is it?
16:00About three.
16:04Shit!
16:04Mindy.
16:23Mindy.
16:24I'm here.
16:24I'm here now.
16:25Fuck you, Lee.
16:26Look.
16:27Just let me take it.
16:28I said I would.
16:29You said to be here at two.
16:31Jesus Christ.
16:31Just one afternoon out with me friends.
16:33That's all I wanted.
16:33Well, I'm here now.
16:35You're not reliable.
16:37I said I didn't want you involved with her.
16:38I said she'd get bored and fuck me over.
16:40And you have.
16:42We don't need that in our lives, Lick.
16:44You're going to end up like your own fucking dad.
16:59Mindy!
17:00I thought we'd agree to make a go of it.
17:03Fuck.
17:04Look, she'll calm down, Lick.
17:10She's just pissed off for you.
17:11She's right though, isn't she?
17:13Fucked up like she said I would.
17:14Okay, so tell her you're sorry and tell her you'll make it up to her.
17:18I don't want to be like him.
17:20I want to be a good dad.
17:23Look, do you think, well, what if I asked her to move in with me?
17:28I'd be there for her all the time and she'd know I mean it.
17:31I suppose.
17:32Yeah, I could redecorate.
17:35My room, do it how she likes.
17:37That's commitment, isn't it?
17:38Yeah.
17:39Where'd you get this from?
17:52Wrong colour.
17:52Come on, kid.
18:01Get a musical, Frank.
18:02Party!
18:03It's a headlight or something.
18:05Maybe we should invite some of the others.
18:06No, no, we can do that later.
18:08We just thought we'd have a bit of a celebration.
18:10Hey, get the girl a drink, please.
18:12Come on.
18:16Come on, baby.
18:31I'm coming.
18:32Here we go.
18:32She's going to take it.
18:34It's crazy.
18:37I got so much love.
18:40I got so much love.
18:46Where'd you get it from?
18:49I stole it.
18:50Where from?
18:51Me dad works at Apprentice and they make wedding invitations.
18:55So I know he's getting married.
18:58Come on, Brian.
18:59You've been not great, honey.
19:00It's been all right.
19:01I thought you were going to dress, you'll be fine.
19:05So, Brian, how many more weddings do you know I have?
19:12Oh, I love this one.
19:14I'm having such a lovely time.
19:16Down the swivel, Julia.
19:21Come on, Sheila.
19:32Come on.
19:35There you go.
19:36Come on.
19:36There we are.
19:37There's another one in there.
19:39Down in one.
19:40Go on.
19:41Go on.
19:42Go on.
19:43All the way.
19:43Go on.
19:44Go on.
19:44Go on.
19:44Go on.
19:45Go on.
19:45Oh, thank Puck for that.
19:53How many did you give her?
19:54Ten.
19:54That's the thing about women, see?
20:10She's devious.
20:11Like Alistair fucking Campbell.
20:12The lot are your tick, tick.
20:14Make out that there's nothing going on.
20:17But inside...
20:17I mean, where's Kev while you're here, eh?
20:22Witching hour, legs straddling a fucking corpse, at home in bed.
20:26None the flaming wiser.
20:29More to the point.
20:30Where are you, Frank?
20:31You were meant to be fucking helping.
20:33Yeah, you know, I can't go there.
20:34It's too close to home.
20:35Anyway, I'm getting flashbacks to me, ma'am.
20:37Anyway, you were a fucking nurse.
20:39You're used to dead, but...
20:39Fucking hell, Frank.
20:45I think I've found him.
20:48Well, have a look.
20:50Can I see the gold?
20:57Bloody hell.
20:58There's a watch, though.
21:12And some rings.
21:21Fuck me.
21:28Jesus Christ, on a bike.
21:35That was some fucking fall down the stairs.
21:50Here.
21:51I've got your double.
21:54Dick him up, she said.
21:55Don't hurt anyone, she said.
21:56No, you're not the one just found out you're marrying Maida fucking Indley.
21:59Frank, I am just as freaked out about this as you are.
22:02Oh, hello, how's that work?
22:03Are you the one that's lying awake at three in the morning,
22:05wondering whether you're going to make it till breakfast time?
22:08Look.
22:10Well, this...
22:11This wouldn't normally be my first port of call,
22:13but maybe we should, you know, think about...
22:16Without going to the police.
22:17You could save a guard.
22:19How come suddenly it's all about me?
22:20What, you don't want to fucking dug him up.
22:22Yeah, Frank!
22:23You want to pull yourself together.
22:24I mean, there might be a perfectly reasonable explanation.
22:28For a fondue set in the ribs.
22:30What, he thought, oh, hang on,
22:31I'd try a bit of acupuncture to cure the heart attack
22:33and, oh dear, whoops, I've stabbed myself to death.
22:35I can't think so.
22:36Well, if you go to the police, we've lost the gold,
22:38so why don't you just shut up about it?
22:39You know, when did you turn into Lyra Croft Tomb later?
22:47Shit!
22:52I've got a shocking head.
22:54I didn't sleep properly last night.
22:56It was up and down, Rocky.
22:58Sorry, am I interrupting something?
22:59No, no, no, we weren't just talking about the wedding.
23:02Frank's really looking forward to it.
23:03Oh, Frank, are you?
23:06Of course I am, yeah.
23:08I've got my dress fitting today.
23:10Who about you?
23:10Oh, I've got a diamondy bodice,
23:12nylon jewel veil, modesty panel.
23:16Actually, I know you don't like looking after the twins,
23:19but I thought maybe just for a good one.
23:20Well, of course I do.
23:21No, don't be silly.
23:22Any time.
23:23You'd only be for an hour.
23:24Yeah.
23:24Don't question it, Sheila.
23:25He might change his mind.
23:26Anyway, I've got a watch to.
23:28See ya.
23:29Hey, Veronica.
23:30Have you got moles, then?
23:33Do what, Lillian?
23:35Moles, have you got them?
23:36How or less?
23:36They said she saw you digging it, Gordon.
23:38She lives all but back from you.
23:39No, Lillian, no.
23:41It's the digger.
23:42We've got the builders in.
23:43It's not us.
23:43No, it's definitely you in the night.
23:45She wanted to go.
23:46No, no, no.
23:46She must have been, you know, dreaming it.
23:48Dreamed it.
23:49You know what she's like.
23:50Hang on, hang on.
23:51Sheila, come on, Dan.
23:52You've got your wedding veil.
23:53I know she did.
23:54She knows you're out.
23:55Hang on, Lillian.
23:56Hang on, look.
23:56Just go on, Dan.
23:57You enjoy yourself, can you?
23:58No, meet with you.
23:59Because she knows you're out.
24:00Hey, hey, hey, hey.
24:01Your work on this planet is finished.
24:02Return to your own people.
24:03She don't tell lies.
24:04She saw you.
24:16Fucking hell.
24:18No.
24:19No.
24:21No.
24:24What, Lillian?
24:25I told you.
24:25Just...
24:26Come with us a minute.
24:28Debs, watch Keita.
24:31What are we doing, Lip?
24:33You'll see.
24:34In a minute.
24:36All right.
24:37You ready?
24:40Ta-da!
24:41And what's this meant to be?
24:46Well, it's for you.
24:48I thought if you moved in here, I'll be around, won't I?
24:52Won't be able to forget things.
24:54Lip, a couple of coats of paint aren't going to solve anything.
24:57And what makes you think I'm going to move in here with you lot?
24:59It's a fucking madhouse.
25:00No offence, but I'd rather eat my own sick.
25:05I don't understand you.
25:07But I wanted to work, Mandy.
25:10Yeah, well, so do I.
25:12But it's us we've got to sort out.
25:14The real stuff.
25:16Not some fucking paint job.
25:17I don't want to, Debbie.
25:25Brian, you said you'd help me.
25:27You said I could kiss you.
25:29Just help me get the dress.
25:31I'm not...
25:32Just one, okay?
25:33Here.
25:35On the mouth.
25:36On the mouth, I'm not doing it.
25:39Just help me get the dress, all right?
25:41Where do you get it from?
25:53Yeah, you know, grave robbing.
25:55Use your stuff.
25:56I'd put it back if I was you.
25:58Eh?
25:59It's fake.
26:00A whole lot of it.
26:02Ain't worth a penny.
26:11Go on then, let me see.
26:14All right then.
26:15But make it quick.
26:16And if you gobble me, I'll throw up on you.
26:22Well, go on then.
26:26Ah, I think you're horrible.
26:28You think you're really it, but you're not.
26:30You're just using me.
26:31And you shouldn't do that because it's wrong.
26:33I don't want to kiss you.
26:34I want to see you ever again.
26:41Frank?
26:50Are you all right about tomorrow?
26:52I can't wait to be Mrs. Gullard.
26:58I think I'll just hit the hay sewer.
27:11Just lock it up for the night, Frank.
27:26Frank?
27:29Yeah, just...
27:30You know, love.
27:34Frank, are you all right, love?
27:35Yeah, yeah.
27:38Just...
27:38You know...
27:40Is there something wrong?
27:45Frank?
27:48What Lillian said?
27:50Were you digging?
27:54Did you...
27:54Did you dig him up?
27:59Sorry, love.
28:00I hear you.
28:03Did you dig him up?
28:06Did you dig him up?
28:08Did you dig him up, Frank?
28:10Did you dig him?
28:18Did you dig him up?
28:19Did you dig him up?
28:19Hey, I'm a...
28:31Monica, you've heard, haven't you?
28:35From the hospital.
28:38It's not good news, is it?
28:40No.
28:43Oh, look, I'm really sorry.
28:46I just didn't know how to tell you.
28:48It's all right.
28:49Monica, look on it.
28:51For sake.
28:54Mind your feet.
28:56What the fuck are you playing at, Frank?
28:59Let me in.
29:00You've just broken the fucking window.
29:02Look, I need the money from the gold.
29:06What fucking gold?
29:08You've done what?
29:09Well, he was fucking dead anyway.
29:10Er, correction, murdered, how much?
29:12Hey, you what?
29:13Sheila murdered him, that's all.
29:15She murdered him, you're joking?
29:16It was a fucking...
29:17Yeah, well, Frank, it was a big fat zero,
29:19because it's all fake,
29:20so I'm fucking tough shit on both of us.
29:22So I dug up that body for nothing?
29:24You didn't dig him up, I fucking did it!
29:26That gold was me get-out-of-jail-free card.
29:28How the hell am I going to get away from her now?
29:30Well, what are you on about?
29:31She knows!
29:33Fucking Lillian, fucking...
29:35And now she's going to kill me.
29:37No, it's not fucking funny.
29:38Look, you didn't see her with that spade.
29:40Did you know they get a taste for it, don't they?
29:42I've seen crime watch.
29:43Oh, for fuck's sake.
29:43What the hell am I going to do now?
29:47I'm going to have to stay here while I get me head together.
29:49You were joking over my dead body.
29:51It's me darkest hour, Veronica.
29:53Me dream wedding in Tatters.
29:54Me kids are not taking pity on me.
29:56Lips already thrown me out.
29:57Yeah, well, tell her to open up.
29:58Fuck off.
30:03Veronica, you can't do this to me.
30:05I'm a marked man.
30:06Hey, you've got me into this.
30:08Veronica.
30:09I don't believe you.
30:20And I don't.
30:22What were you thinking?
30:24I thought we could use the money to, you know,
30:27for IVF.
30:30I know how much you want it, Kev.
30:33Oh, you come here, you dad cow.
30:39Hey, how many blokes could say the wife
30:42would go grave robbing for him?
30:44We were horrible and all.
30:46And he stank.
30:49Well, look, V, we're all right.
30:51We're all right.
30:52We don't need no one else.
30:56Aye, but we don't need to be trying for the baby
30:59to have sex, do we?
31:03No.
31:04Well, that was in, then.
31:06Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
31:21Frank?
31:22Frank?
31:33Frank?
31:34Frank, are you there, love?
31:39Carl?
31:40Carl?
31:41Is your dad there?
31:42No.
31:43Why?
31:44I think it's better for me.
31:45Hey, give over, Sheila.
31:47He's, um, he's probably with, um, well, he's probably like with Kev somewhere, isn't he?
31:53You know, getting ready and that.
31:55It's bad luck seeing you on your wedding day, ain't it?
31:59Luke, why don't you go home and, uh, don't worry, we'll find him.
32:06I'll get him.
32:10What the fuck are you doing, Frank?
32:12It's your wedding day.
32:13You can't just disappear.
32:15She's in pieces.
32:16Yeah, but what about me?
32:18I'm a hunted man.
32:21She got a fucking spade, Veronica.
32:24If you're not gonna marry her, Frank, you have got to tell her.
32:28Sort him out, will ya?
32:29I'm going to Sheila's.
32:31Come on, Nobhead.
32:34Alright, so you dig up this bloke and she's killed him, right?
32:37Yeah, and used to say he's not the only one.
32:40Hmm?
32:41Well, you remember, um, Eddie the Owl?
32:45Fucking missionary work in Africa or six feet under.
32:49What's the more likely, eh?
32:51Well, look, the only reason you know about Sheldon in the first place is because she told you.
32:55Now what's she gonna tell you for? She's planning on giving you the same.
32:58Well, it's double bluff, innit? Plus, she had no choice.
33:02No, that's bollocks, Frank. The reason, no, Frank, the reason she told you is because she trusts you.
33:08That woman, she wouldn't let her finger on you. Fuck knows why, but she thinks the sun shines out of your arse.
33:14But she's still a fucking murderer, Kev. I'm not marrying her.
33:20It's beautiful, innit? I thought I might as well put it on.
33:26Though I don't suppose I'll be needing it now.
33:28Hey, no, come on, enough of that.
33:29He knows, doesn't he? He knows about Sheldon.
33:32I'm sorry, Sheila. It hit me.
33:35He used to hit me, see?
33:37If everything wasn't just so, he used to...
33:40It was like he was looking for things to find fault with.
33:43I... If his records weren't stacked neatly or if I'd have burned on...
33:47Sheldon fucking beat you.
33:49I was young, you see.
33:51You think you deserve it, don't you? You don't know any better.
33:54It was the gold that was the worst.
33:57It used to burn me with it.
33:59My pattern marks all up and down my arms and legs.
34:09No! No! No! No!
34:11But if I cried, he'd punch me in the face.
34:14The pattern they once brought me in hospital for a month.
34:18Why didn't anybody stop him?
34:20Why didn't you go to the police?
34:22I did. I did.
34:23I used to pretend they couldn't see the marks.
34:25They just used to say, they're there.
34:27Give me a boiled sweet and send me home.
34:29They used to call it a domestic in those days.
34:32They didn't want to get involved.
34:34There's always gobstoppers.
34:36I can't step aside from now.
34:39I know.
34:42One night it was coming up me with the medallion.
34:46And I just went.
34:49I didn't plan any of it.
34:58Oh, Sheila, what a bastard.
35:01I can't believe you've never told us before.
35:04He deserved everything he got then.
35:07He mustn't waste another breath on him.
35:09Frank's gone, Veronica.
35:11Because of me.
35:12Because of what I've done.
35:13Hey, no, come on.
35:14But do you think maybe if...
35:15Think maybe if I confessed,
35:17do you think maybe Frank could forgive me?
35:19I know he doesn't love me anymore,
35:21but if he could forgive me, that would be something.
35:23Well, come on, Sheila.
35:24You are not getting yourself banged up for the likes of Sheldon.
35:27He was a monster.
35:28But for Frank,
35:30it's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
35:32I'm gonna turn myself in.
35:45Oi!
35:46Having a nice time, are you?
35:47Well, your fiancé's come to turn herself in.
35:50Well,
35:51you can't do the time.
35:53For the murder of a bloke who beat her to a fucking pulp!
35:57Oi!
35:58Where the fuck are you going?
36:00Empty house.
36:01I'm gonna keep meself company.
36:05For fuck's sake, Frank.
36:06He used to burn her fucking house with a medallion.
36:08How much more convincing do you need?
36:10I am not fucking joking, Frank.
36:12You can't let her go through with it.
36:14She'll go to prison.
36:16She's only confessing
36:17because she thinks it's what you want.
36:22Fucking hell.
36:23What?
36:25Mr and Mrs Gallagher.
36:27She's opened her fucking joint account for you.
36:30Gonna leave her!
36:45Get out of here, Frank!
36:48Get out of here!
36:51Hey!me pages, they're gonna find
36:55in a strange exploring.
36:57I don't know.
37:27Oh, blimey, look at you, Sheila.
37:45Aw, twins have grown, eh?
37:47Yeah, yeah, they have.
37:50So, what can we do for you?
37:52You come to report a crime?
37:53What is it? Frank wants to wear his Hawaiian shirt for the wedding?
37:55No, no.
37:59I've come to confess to Amanda.
38:08Sorry.
38:12Look, Sheila, love, you don't have to marry Frank, you know, if you don't want to.
38:17You don't have to go making up stories.
38:18Oh, no, I do. I really do.
38:20It's just because of the conservatory, you see.
38:25All right, um, maybe we should, um, we'll get you a cup of tea.
38:31Yeah, yeah, that'd be lovely.
38:32Um, with Deborah Harris, you've got it.
38:37Don't stop it.
38:38No!
38:38Oh, Neddy!
38:40All the fucking horses!
38:42Right, whatever she's saying, it's not true, right?
38:45It's just pre-wedding jitters, isn't it?
38:49It's just...
38:50It's just...
38:51Can I just have a couple of minutes with her on me own?
38:56Sheila!
39:03What are you doing, you daft mare?
39:05I know you know about him, what I've done, so I thought I'd come and get it off my chest.
39:11Oh, but what are you talking about?
39:13He was a brute, wasn't he?
39:15It's all right, because Veronica told me.
39:18He deserved everything he got.
39:19God, if I'd have got to him first, I'd have done it.
39:22Because if anyone lays a fucking finger on you...
39:24Frank, you'd gone because of what I'd done.
39:27No!
39:29Well, yeah, but...
39:31It was just...
39:32You know, just a moment...
39:35A moment of cold feet.
39:37Just a normal, kind of bloke's thing.
39:40I just...
39:41I got a bit...
39:42Anyway, the point is, I'm here now.
39:45Why don't we just go home, eh?
39:50To tell you the truth...
39:51You're finding out it's quite a way tough.
39:54Because, um...
39:55I've been giving it a lot of thought.
39:57And I've thought...
39:59Maybe all this trouble I've had over the last few years...
40:02You know, like the pills and everything...
40:04Maybe it's because of the guilt.
40:08I think I need to be punished.
40:12Sheila!
40:13You have...
40:16served your time.
40:17In here.
40:25So what good's it going to do?
40:27You're not going to bring him back, is it?
40:28Frank...
40:29I'll tell you something, Sheila.
40:30If you go to prison...
40:32No, I know.
40:33If you go to prison...
40:35You will kill another man.
40:38No.
40:38Because...
40:39I will die of a broken heart.
40:48Frank...
40:49Do you really mean that?
40:53Do I?
40:53A man...
41:07Without a woman.
41:15Sheila Jackson...
41:15Sheila Jackson...
41:22Will you do me the great...
41:24Thingy...
41:26Of...
41:27You...
41:28My...
41:29Wife?
41:31Yes!
41:32Yes, yes!
41:34Of course I will!
41:35Of course I will!
41:40Let's get the fuck out of this place, then!
41:42Oh, God!
41:42No!
41:43No!
41:43No!
41:44No!
41:44No!
41:45No!
41:51Well...
41:52You don't scrub up bad.
41:54Didn't think you were coming?
41:56Yeah, well...
41:56Don't miss this, would I?
41:59Got me mum to mind, Katie...
42:00So it's just me and you today.
42:02If we can remember how to do that.
42:04Course we can.
42:07Come on.
42:09You got a button on Marta?
42:10Look a cock, innit!
42:12Hiya, Karen.
42:12Hiya, Sue.
42:13Cheers.
42:14Cheers.
42:14In a civil service, we don't make vows of a religious nature.
42:21Thank fuck.
42:22Thank fuck.
42:23But we pledge our love, honour and respect in a way that's just as deeply binding.
42:29Come on, come on, come on, get to the good bit.
42:30Do you, Vernon Francis Gallagher?
42:32Go on, join in if you know the words.
42:35Do you, Vernon Francis Gallagher, take Sheila Jackson to be your lawfully wedded wife?
42:42I do!
42:43I do!
42:44And do you, Sheila Jackson, take Vernon Francis Gallagher to be your lawfully wedded husband?
42:53Yes!
42:54Yes!
42:55Yes!
42:56Yes!
42:57I'm guilty!
42:58Hooray!
42:59Here's the ring!
43:00Hooray!
43:01Hooray!
43:02I now pronounce you husband and wife.
43:05Hooray!
43:06Hooray!
43:07Hooray!
43:08Hooray!
43:09Hooray!
43:10Hooray!
43:11Hooray!
43:12Hooray!
43:13Hooray!
43:14Hooray!
43:15Hooray!

43:23Hooray!
43:24Hooray!
43:25Hooray!
43:26Hooray!
43:27Hey, I'm glad you came through.
43:28Yeah, well, I could hardly let her down, could I?
43:31Anyway, I got to thinking.
43:32Never got the divorce through from Monica in the end, so it's not legal anyway.
43:37So I've got a new joke, right?
43:56What does bigamy mean?
43:58One wife, too many.
44:00And monogamy, same fucking thing.
44:03But, you know, if you've got to have a ball and change,
44:05she was a woman for the job.
44:06Cos if we ever fall on hard times,
44:08you can send her out as a contract killer.
44:10So like the Chief Roman said,
44:12veni, vidi, volavant.
44:14Let's have a fucking party!
44:15Let's go!
44:19Let's go!
44:21Let's go!
44:53Yeah, give me that.
