00:00I
00:30This is a fantastic property for a first-time buyer.
01:00It seems they left before they finished the kitchen.
01:06Yes, although I think you'll agree it's a magnificent space.
01:10What happened to them?
01:11Oh, they probably just ran out of money.
01:13It's happening a lot these days.
01:15Is there anything else that you'd like to see?
01:17I don't think so.
01:30Have a think, but the vendors are keen on a quick sale, so don't take too long.
01:40We already have masses of interest in this.
01:45Is it true they were killed?
01:47Whoever died here heard they were murdered.
01:52Is that why all three are for sale?
01:53Like I said, we have a lot of interest.
01:55It's a very popular street, so I'll be in touch.
02:28We've done the potato salad.
02:57I've done the sausage rolls.
02:59I said I'd help out with the bouncy castle.
03:01Emma!
03:03Sorry.
03:04I was miles away.
03:05Well, we will be soon.
03:06I'll do the potato salad.
03:08Yeah, don't hold back on the mayor.
03:09Hey, John.
03:11I've been thinking about the house.
03:13You're not getting cold feet, are you?
03:14I'm going to get the estate agent around to value it as soon as possible.
03:17I just wanted to get today out of the way first.
03:18What?
03:21What?
03:22Nothing.
03:23Let's just get to this party.
03:25Oh, my God.
03:52What do you reckon?
04:10What are you doing?
04:13My photography project.
04:15What is it?
04:16Street life in suburbia?
04:19No.
04:20It's called my prison.
04:21Your girl's in a funny old mood.
04:27Life's just a photo to be posted.
04:29It's for her A-levels.
04:30Really?
04:30Christ.
04:31I can do anything, huh?
04:32Remember when we had to do proper subjects?
04:34Sausage roll?
04:35You know, Sonny's done sausage rolls.
04:36Has she?
04:37What, the best cook in England?
04:38Hey, who's done sausage rolls?
04:40Oh, John.
04:41I thought you were doing potato salad.
04:42I thought you were doing potato salad.
04:46Mmm.
04:47Mmm.
04:47Not bad.
04:51Is the cooking that first attracted me to a year?
04:54Really?
04:55I mean, that, Anna.
04:56Should we, uh, get a beer?
04:58Come on, then.
05:01How's work?
05:03Oh, you know.
05:04Bank holidays are good.
05:05Yeah.
05:14Cheers.
05:15Any luck finding a job?
05:16I'm sure the world still needs salesmen.
05:18Couple of intervals.
05:21So, this is Elal Shelby Drive street party.
05:25Hadn't thought of that.
05:26I suppose it is.
05:27We'll miss you, mate.
05:30Ah, look out.
05:30Big brother's watching.
05:32Sitting a comfortable distance from the meet.
05:35Right, uh, these volumens won't eat themselves.
05:55Sonia's made sausage rolls as well.
05:57Oh, Walt, the best cook in England.
05:59Hey, John.
06:02I think we should stay.
06:04What?
06:05That's what I was trying to say before.
06:07I don't think we should sell.
06:08I think we should do the kitchen.
06:10The extension.
06:12Seriously?
06:12Yeah, I mean, I've got that money just sitting there.
06:15We've talked about it for years.
06:16And besides, we, we love this place.
06:19And I think it'd be good for us.
06:23You know, start something new, like a joint venture.
06:25Something new was moving house.
06:27No, I know, but...
06:27We discussed this.
06:28We made a decision.
06:29Well, you made a decision, John.
06:31And I totally understand.
06:33But moving's going to cost us a fortune to have what we already have.
06:35But doing a kitchen extension, that could be exciting.
06:41John, I know you're having a shit time.
06:43But work's going really well for me at the moment.
06:46I love it here.
06:47I love the neighbours.
06:48Beth's never known any different.
06:49And, you know, like, she's got enough stuff going on with college and failed relationships
06:53without having to move to a new place.
06:55It's...
06:56It's the right decision.
06:58I promise.
07:00For all of us.
07:00It's the right decision.
07:30It's the right decision.
08:00Why now?
08:01Because I got the money, picked up a lot of cases last year,
08:04so, you know, that kind of, you know, concern.
08:07Good to see you, no.
08:08No, of course not.
08:09I just thought you were like, hey, I'm thrilled you're staying.
08:12Oh, OK, right, I'm relieved.
08:13And it won't affect your light, and it means we're staying.
08:16And, you know, where else are we going to find neighbours like you?
08:21How does John feel about it?
08:22Does he not want to move?
08:23Oh, you know, John, he's never made a big decision in his life,
08:27but he'll get there.
08:28And besides, until he's in employment,
08:31I'm the one in the money, so, you know,
08:33I've always fancied a new kitchen.
08:35Well, I think it's great news.
08:38I mean, how could he move away from crazy Nick?
08:42He still freaks me out.
08:44I'm surprised he's here.
08:45He's usually behind those blinds.
08:47I bet he's got a secret.
08:49Nah, I reckon he's as dull as he seems,
08:52apart from your doggen.
08:55Hey, maybe I'll end up defending him in court.
08:58Oh, I will never understand how your job works.
09:01I mean, it's pretty simple.
09:02Some law-life gets into trouble,
09:04and I'll try and keep them out of jail.
09:05Sounds a bit like teaching.
09:07Yeah, but if you guys do your job right,
09:09then I don't have one.
09:10True enough.
09:12Is there a way I can put these?
09:14I made sausage rolls.
09:16Best sausage rolls outside the EU.
09:19Oh, no, no politics.
09:21Well, let's hope the good old British weather doesn't let us down.
09:25Oh, look at Peash.
09:27They look lovely, Barbara.
09:28You could just put them over there on the table.
09:30Oh, I heard another car got stolen.
09:33I hope you're looking into it.
09:34Well, catching criminals isn't my job, I'm afraid.
09:37Yeah, she just gets them off.
09:39Little sods.
09:40I remember when you could leave your door open in this street.
09:43Oh, come on, it's not that bad.
09:44Yeah, I think this street's lovely.
09:46I think we're lucky.
09:48It's changing, though, for the worse.
09:50Speaking of changing,
09:52we're thinking of doing the kitchen extension,
09:54but don't worry, it won't affect your light.
09:56It's just the one level.
09:58Oh, God.
10:00Hello, Mr Magpie.
10:00How's the wife and kids?
10:02Oh, you believe in all that nonsense, don't you?
10:04Oh, yeah, you don't mess with Magpites.
10:07Why does everyone need more space?
10:09We've lived here for 35 years
10:10without once thinking we need a bigger house
10:13than the one we've bought.
10:14Um, I don't know.
10:16I think we've just always wanted to update the place
10:18and, you know, best not getting any younger
10:21and you know what it's like having teenagers in the house.
10:27I'm sorry, Barbara.
10:29Have you told Derek?
10:31No, not yet.
10:32But I'll sit you down and talk you through it,
10:35show you the plans,
10:35but honestly, it's nothing to worry about.
10:44That went well.
10:46I didn't mean to mention Marcus.
10:48I was just trying to...
10:49Oh, God.
10:50I feel really stupid.
10:52How old do you reckon you've been at Amsterdam's?
10:54The late 20s.
10:55Talk about him like he's dead.
10:57Come on, people don't just disappear.
10:59I mean, you said so yourself.
11:00You could hear the fights through the war.
11:01Yeah, I know, but that doesn't mean...
11:04I can't imagine what we've gone through.
11:10Hello, hello, everybody.
11:12It's time for a toast.
11:14Please rise.
11:17After three.
11:18One, two, three.
11:21Shalbury Drive!
11:22Shalbury Drive!
11:24Shalbury Drive!
11:24Shalbury Drive!
11:24Shalbury Drive!
11:25Shalbury Drive!
11:26Shalbury Drive!
11:26Shalbury Drive!
11:26Shalbury Drive!
11:30Shalbury Drive!
11:31Shalbury Drive!
11:52Shalbury Drive!
11:56John?
12:26John?
12:32These other plans were had drawn up, remember?
12:35Forgot my dad those, don't.
12:37I've always wanted an island. See what you think.
12:40I need to be down at the magistrate's court by ten, but if you do have any concerns, then we can chat tonight.
12:49You are going to be okay with this. I want this to be for us, not just me.
12:54Well, we've been discussing it for years. Sometimes you just have to jump.
12:59I've asked for some quotes from builders, so we'll see.
13:03Where from?
13:04The Pinebridge Forum online. I should be back early afternoon, but make sure Beth gets to college.
13:08Oh, and I've sent an email to Barbara and Derek, just letting them know we need a party wall agreement.
13:12They'll probably take ages to respond, so if you do see them, will you just tell them to check their emails?
13:17We'll have to let them know on writing, but I think a quill and parchment will be quicker.
13:21Do you know something?
13:24For the first time in a long time. I feel excited.
13:29See you later.
13:31I'm sorry. I wish I could help, but I've got to go to work.
13:32Yeah, someone's got to keep those criminals out on the streets.
13:37Well, if there's anything left to do, I'll only be a couple of hours, and John's here to help.
13:43Hey, why don't you two come over for a drink tonight? Finish off some of these leftovers.
13:44Yeah? Yeah, that'd be great. I might have a build around at some point, if any of them ask me.
13:49If any of them actually reply to my ad, but other than that, we'll talk to you free. See you then.
13:52I'm sorry. I wish I could help, but I've got to go to work.
13:55I wish I could help, but I've got to go to work.
13:57Yeah, someone's got to keep those criminals out on the streets.
14:00Well, if there's anything left to do, I'll only be a couple of hours, and John's here to help.
14:04Hey, why don't you two come over for a drink tonight? Finish off some of these leftovers.
14:08Yeah? Yeah, that'd be great. I might have a build around at some point, if any of them actually reply to my ad.
14:14But other than that, we'll talk to you free. See you then.
14:21Well, I have all that food's leftover. Besides, I want to hear more about this extension.
14:27You think they'll actually do it? I hope so. And they won't affect us.
14:33I mean, apart from the builders and the portaloo.
14:36I haven't thought about the portaloo. You don't actually care, do you?
14:40Your mate's not going to move. Isn't that good? Alan?
14:46Yeah, of course.
14:57Is there any milk? No, we're out. You can always go to the shops.
15:18Yeah, I could. Or I could have toast.
15:24Is there any bread?
15:25Uh, no. We're out of that too.
15:30Jesus. Can't you do a shop? It's not like you have a job.
15:34Beth, did, um, Mum tell you about the, uh, the extension?
15:38No.
15:39Could be quite disruptive.
15:43Morales, you mean.
15:44Come on, Beth, that's a bit...
15:46Do you really think it's a good idea, starting something like this, when you're both so...
15:49When we're both so what?
15:51Well, your mum has a very stressful job, and sometimes it's, it's just, it's not easy for her to leave it behind, you know?
15:56Not as easy as it was for you, though.
15:59I had my reasons for resigning. You know that.
16:01I need to go to college.
16:02You know what, Beth, sometimes you can be a right pain in the...
16:12Well, Mrs Barnett, are you applying for bail for your client today?
16:15Sorry, madam, uh, before we do this, could I ask the arresting officer a question?
16:19I think we've heard all we need to hear.
16:21On the contrary.
16:22Yes, go ahead.
16:27You are the arresting officer, is that right?
16:29I am.
16:30And when you arrested Mr Massoud, he confessed to indeed committing the crime for which he'd been arrested?
16:36He did.
16:37And he did this in language you understand?
16:40Of course.
16:41Right.
16:42So I can take from that that you speak, or at the very least, understand Bengali.
16:46What?
16:48Abu, do you remember making a confession to the police officer?
16:55Abu?
16:57Hmm.
16:58So did you have a native speaker with you, at the scene?
17:03You know, to, um, hear the confession?
17:06He said it in English, because he speaks English.
17:08Well, we both know that's not true.
17:10Well, he has a very strong Pakistani accent, but he does speak...
17:13He's Bangladeshi, not Pakistani.
17:15Whichever.
17:16Yeah.
17:17Can we just take a moment, please?
17:18He was out of control.
17:19The man's guilty.
17:20He, uh, he confessed.
17:21He was erratic.
17:22He was terrified.
17:23He was being manhandled by a huge bouncer.
17:26Of course he was out of control, but he can't have made a confession.
17:29At least not in words you'd know.
17:31No way.
17:32This is crap.
17:33She's talking rubbish.
17:34Have we met before, officer?
17:37I don't think so.
17:38Hmm.
17:39I think we have.
17:40Wasn't there another incident with a young Asian man?
17:43I don't think this is relevant.
17:45Get on with it, please.
17:47Sorry, madam.
17:48On the basis that the officer couldn't have heard a confession, and without any conclusive
17:53CCTV evidence, the court has no choice but at, to the very least, grant my client bail.
17:59What the...
18:01In the circumstances, I'm going to adjourn the case pending further inquiries.
18:05Your client will be bailed until further notice.
18:08?
18:10?
18:20?
18:26?
18:27?
18:32?
19:37Thank you for sending us this, but we are not going to sign the party wall agreement under any circumstances.
19:47The lack of light will kill our garden, and our garden matters to us.
19:50Well, Barbara didn't give me any indication that she...
19:53Do you know what? There's nothing they can do, ultimately.
19:56It would be good if they were on board, but it's what it is.
20:01I'm not so sure.
20:02What do you mean?
20:03Well, you know what those two are like. I mean, there's something odd about them.
20:06She cries when she waters that tree.
20:08All right, but, you know, this isn't about being odd. It's about the law, and trust me, the law's with us.
20:16Look, I know you want this, and I get it. I do, honestly.
20:21And I know that my situation hasn't exactly been easy on us.
20:26And you've been amazing, but...
20:28I'm just... I'm worried that...
20:32It's going to be a lot of grief and stress, and Beth has told me that she's had enough of us rowing.
20:37And she's right. I just think...
20:41She needs, like, a change in her life that a move would give her.
20:46I know what you're doing, John.
20:49You're pleased that the neighbours are going to make this difficult for us.
20:53You're recruiting our daughter to make me change my mind, hoping that I'll cave in.
20:57Well, I won't.
21:01Did you speak to Alan?
21:02About what?
21:03They've invited us over for drinks tonight.
21:07They have?
21:08Yeah.
21:08Be nice.
21:09We can celebrate with them.
21:23Emma, yeah?
21:25You must be Lee.
21:27Right.
21:28Come in.
21:28We've tried to keep it really simple.
21:38We're looking at two new steals here. Maybe three.
21:50Sounds pricey.
21:51Well, yeah. I mean, everything's pricier than it was.
21:53But, you know, at first glance, I can't see you've got any hidden surprises there.
21:56So it's doable?
21:57Well, yeah. Everything's doable.
21:59So when you're looking to start?
22:01I mean, soon, while the money's there.
22:04Right.
22:05Well, I've got a job booked in for later in the year, so that'd work for me.
22:10But, you know, like I say, sooner the better.
22:12And you've got your planning permission, sort of, yeah?
22:14Planning permission shouldn't be a problem.
22:16It's four metres and one storeys.
22:18Four? Well, you know it's three for a definite yes. You know that.
22:21Yeah, I know. Um, I'll get on it.
22:24Party wall?
22:26That's the agreement you're going to need with your neighbour regarding the shared wall?
22:29Yeah, yeah. We know what a party wall agreement is.
22:31You're going to need them on your side. Trust me.
22:34Right, that's it. So the timing's worked for me.
22:36I'll be in touch with your estimate.
22:38Oh, right, then. Yeah, cheers.
22:40Thanks. I'll see you out.
22:41No, no need.
22:42Why do builders always presume it's the men who know what's going on?
22:50So, what do you think?
22:53Well, I don't know what's going on.
22:55John, come on. Don't be difficult.
22:57I want us to do this together.
23:00You made a decision without me.
23:02Well, if I waited around for you to make decisions, we'd still be single.
23:06Sorry.
23:07Look, I just think this might be an exciting thing for both of us to do.
23:12Is this because it's my money that's paying for it?
23:16For God's sake.
23:17No, it is. You haven't got a job and you can't bear the fact that I have.
23:19Don't be ridiculous.
23:20And all it is, it's some stupid emasculation thing.
23:23That's rubbish.
23:24Then what is it then? Tell me.
23:29Honestly, it's nothing.
23:32It's nothing.
23:42It's nothing.
24:12For 15 years we've been neighbours, not once have we had a crossword.
24:15Er, yeah, that's right, yeah.
24:17We were understanding when you wanted to build into the roof.
24:19We allowed the scaffolding to encroach into our garden.
24:22We accepted that you having a teenage daughter meant occasionally the thickness of the walls would be tested by the decibels of her dreadful music.
24:29We even kept quiet during some of you and your husband's louder disagreements.
24:33But this, this, this new thing is...
24:36Are you sure you don't want to come in for a cup of tea?
24:39Very, thank you.
24:40Look, Derek, you've been great neighbours. You have, really.
24:43Which is why we don't see any reason to fall out over this.
24:46Honestly, if you see what we're proposing...
24:48Our garden is important to us. Can you understand that?
24:50We like it precisely how it is.
24:52But we're not doing anything to your garden.
24:54Yes, you are, because you're doing something to yours.
24:56I don't see how that's going to affect anything...
24:57Look, it matters to us. Can't you understand that?
25:02You know the noise hasn't exactly been one way.
25:05You and your son had some pretty intense arguments.
25:08You never mentioned Marcus.
25:10Never. Can you hear me?
25:12Shh, never.
25:20Well, you've got a fight on your hands.
25:23And it's a fight you're not going to win.
25:24Four metres. That's not nothing.
25:41Come off it. You'll barely see at the height of your fence.
25:44Don't worry about us. It doesn't bother us either way.
25:46Ah, thanks.
25:47Wish I could see the scene for Derek and Barbara.
25:49Oh, come on. You know what they're like stuck in their ways.
25:51They'll get over it eventually.
25:53No, I feel bad. I wish they didn't feel the way they do.
25:56I don't want to upset them.
25:57They're old and they hate change.
25:58And they killed that teenage kid and buried him under the tree.
26:01Stop it.
26:02What?
26:02They did not kill their kid and bury him under a tree.
26:05If you say so.
26:07Hey, he did lose his shit when I mentioned Marcus.
26:10Is he? I told you.
26:11Biscuit?
26:12Have you seen Biscuit?
26:13No, he's a cat. He'll be fine.
26:16He'd do anything to kill that cat.
26:19Is John not coming then?
26:20Yeah, he's just gone to get some old booze.
26:22He doesn't need to do that.
26:23We're trying to get through ours.
26:25Hey, I should warn you though.
26:26He's been in a bit of a weird mood.
26:28I don't know.
26:28I just thought he'd be more excited about this extension.
26:31In my experience, no man has ever really wanted to do anything.
26:34But most of us are happy enough for our wives to get things done.
26:38Sexist?
26:39Yeah. Sexist.
26:40What? I'm just saying.
26:42John would probably rather take the money and go for a long holiday.
26:46Or buy a car.
26:47Instead he's adding four metres to the house.
26:49To find himself in an even bigger kitchen.
26:50He can't cook him.
26:51John's a very good cook.
26:53Yes, he is. Thank you, Sonia.
26:55I mean, he can knock out a curry.
26:57No, he can do more than that.
26:59He has several minced based dishes down to him.
27:02Anyway, this is more than just a cooking space.
27:06It's going to be like a whole new area for our family to relax in.
27:10But you know the worst thing I want.
27:11Don't let it go, Al.
27:13No, no, go on.
27:14The poor guy's not working.
27:16The last thing in is the bunch of real men grafting for his missus.
27:19Ollie's sat next door watching loose women.
27:21Who's watching loose women?
27:24Shall we eat?
27:28Biscuit! There you are!
27:30Do you want your dinner too?
27:32Good boy.
27:33No, my point is, is that she never says a civil word to me.
27:39Come on.
27:40Beth's fine.
27:41She's a normal young woman.
27:43She's not like any normal young woman I've ever met.
27:45I'm hoping that's not many.
27:48No, listen, listen.
27:49I love her.
27:49She's my daughter.
27:50But, you know, we just, we don't have anything in common.
27:53Well, that's not true.
27:54You both work shy.
27:55Oh.
27:56I'm joking.
28:01Well, at least you had a kid.
28:03Sonia.
28:04Just saying.
28:06Listen, I wouldn't swap Beth for anyone in the world,
28:09but not having a child to worry about does feel quite appealing.
28:13You don't mean that.
28:13I do.
28:14I've spent half my life trying to get idiot kids out of jail,
28:17and I do wonder if we all just stopped having them,
28:19the world would be a better place.
28:20Yeah, yeah.
28:21I wouldn't have anyone to teach.
28:23You ain't teaching.
28:24That's not the point.
28:25And I don't hate it.
28:26I'm just over it.
28:29Just regret not having a child sometimes.
28:31That's all.
28:31Jesus, Sonia.
28:32You tell me when we first met, babe.
28:34Can we change the subject?
28:39I'll get some coffee.
28:41I'll give you a hand.
28:46No.
28:47I'll go.
28:50Cheers.
28:50So, Sonia's a fan of your cooking.
28:58Seemingly not everyone thinks I'm totally useless.
29:01I just don't remember you cooking for them, that's all.
29:05I do the cooking when we have people around.
29:06I'm sure I've cooked for them before.
29:08Okay.
29:09You're probably right.
29:11I was just surprised you said it, that's all.
29:12Where are you going?
29:17The toilet, is that all right?
29:23You know what they say about a watch kettle?
29:26Never boils.
29:29A watch kettle...
29:31Leave me alone, Alan.
29:33Sonia, I'm sorry.
29:34Was she in the sense?
29:36But you did.
29:38You always do.
29:42Okay.
29:46That's how you feel.
29:49I'll get it.
29:54Oh!
29:55Your daughter said I might find you here.
29:57All right.
29:58I thought the street party went well.
30:00Uh, yeah.
30:00Yeah, it was nice.
30:02Ooh!
30:02A little soiree.
30:05Oh, uh, sort of.
30:07Nick, can I help you?
30:08Yes, I just wondered, could you move your car?
30:10Because it's in front of my drive.
30:13Well, hardly.
30:14I mean, there's plenty of space for you to do.
30:16Well, I am petitioning for permits.
30:18Why would you do that?
30:19Well, I'm working nights,
30:20so I don't want to run the risk of coming home in the morning
30:23to find someone's parked in front of my drive.
30:25Okay, well, I've had a drink, so...
30:27Don't worry.
30:28I won't use the CCTV to report you for drink driving.
30:32Okay, I'll go and get...
30:35I noticed there's a planning application in front extension.
30:38Oh, wow, Nick.
30:39That was quick work.
30:40Will there be much disruption?
30:42That's the question.
30:43Because I work...
30:44I work nights, so I do sleep in the day.
30:47Don't worry.
30:48We promise we'll keep the disruption down to a minimum.
30:50Four metres.
30:51Hmm?
30:52Four metres.
30:53Four.
30:53That's not a given.
30:57Anyway, thanks for your help, aren't we?
30:58You're okay, Nick.
30:59Oh.
31:00I'll let Emma fill you in.
31:02Oh, it's lovely to see you all getting on so well.
31:05And I thought the tension in there, unbearable.
31:08What?
31:09This price includes everything except the internal finish.
31:22That'd be a separate payment, you know.
31:24That's depending on what your requirements are on that.
31:26Right, so then there's the kitchen itself and the new doors.
31:30Which I can fit, but like I say, that'd be part of this finishing quail.
31:34Oh, shit.
31:38Sorry, I was just...
31:40And then there's the foundations.
31:42Well, surely that's included in the initial build price.
31:45Yeah, it is, but it's your tree survey.
31:47It's thrown up some issues with the roots.
31:49It looks like we're going to have to dig deeper,
31:51and if that's the case, then it's going to double what's on there for the ditch.
31:55Sorry, which tree?
31:57That one on the border there.
31:58Boundary roots can always be a problem.
32:00You can always ask them to move it.
32:02I mean, that'd be a lot cheaper for you, that's for sure.
32:05Anyway, either way, is that the kind of number you had in mind?
32:09Well, you know, it is a little bit steeper than I expected.
32:13Look, you're not going to get a better price, honestly.
32:15And also, bear in mind, I want to start straight away.
32:19And I always think it's better to just crack on
32:21before all them doubts start creeping in.
32:23And you'll be done 12 weeks latest.
32:26Obviously, you're going to need your planning faster.
32:29How fast?
32:30Oh, no.
32:34Tea?
32:34No.
32:36You're all right.
32:39All right.
32:40Thanks.
32:41See you.
32:42Cheers.
32:44I don't like him.
32:46He's not here to be your friend.
32:47And he's not expensive because I've been asking around.
32:50Well, they're never going to agree to moving that tree.
32:53It's going to cost us.
32:54Oh, Jesus.
32:56It's not too late to stop all this, you know.
33:00Stop it?
33:00Why?
33:01I don't know.
33:02I just feel...
33:03What?
33:05Scared?
33:06Look, I know it's going to be disruptive,
33:08but this is a net positive for us.
33:10Can't you see that?
33:12You know, I could get involved.
33:14It might give you a focus.
33:15What, because I'm unemployable?
33:19I didn't say that.
33:20Yeah.
33:21Didn't need to.
33:30Lee, it's Emma from 29 Shelby Drive.
33:34We don't need to think anymore.
33:35We're good to go.
33:36Planning's not going to be a problem.
33:38Give me a call.
33:38Bye-bye.
33:55Hey, have you seen this?
33:59Uh, no.
34:00What is it?
34:01The street group chat.
34:02Hmm.
34:03Yeah.
34:04Similarly, that psycho cat at number six
34:06has taken down another schnauzer.
34:08Nasty, apparently.
34:10And Nick's put up more CCTV
34:11of someone walking past his house at 1am.
34:14Like it's illegal.
34:16Number four, asking for more kids' books.
34:19I mean, is there anything them kids ain't bloody read?
34:22What's this here?
34:24Derek getting busy objecting to the building.
34:27Why would he do that?
34:28Maybe we should.
34:30You're not being serious?
34:32I might be.
34:34They're our friends.
34:35Besides, we don't want to move in.
34:37God knows who'd be in there next.
34:40And look what happened
34:41when that nice old couple sold number 16.
34:44But a CCTV freak guy moved in.
34:47I mean, who knows what goes on behind these doors.
34:50At least with John and Emma,
34:51we know they're not going to kill us.
34:56Alan.
34:58I've got clients, have they?
35:00I've got to go.
35:01See ya.
35:01Shall I read you what I've said?
35:20Sure.
35:20Attached is the link to the planning department website.
35:24All you need to do is click on the address,
35:2629 Schellner Drive,
35:28and then click on the objection button.
35:31You can then scroll down to leave it a reason for your objection.
35:33We have done so on the grounds that I've got it.
35:35I miss him.
35:37I miss him so much.
35:38What can I say, Ian?
35:53He's innocent.
35:54So you're telling me that your client broke into a phone shop at 4am
35:58because he thought it was his own house?
35:59He was out of it on high-strength marijuana.
36:02He stole £1,000 worth of phones.
36:04What kind of house did he think he lived in?
36:05You've obviously not taken high-strength marijuana.
36:08Have you?
36:09Of course not.
36:10Look, I need to make a call.
36:12Look, all I'm asking is that you and I come to some sort of a deal.
36:15This is seventh offence.
36:16The kid's a serial thief.
36:17Prove it.
36:18Anyway, the prisons are full.
36:19Oh, well, she'll just let him off, shall we?
36:21All he does is rob.
36:22For God's sake, he got convicted of selling kids bikes
36:25that still had happy birthday written on them.
36:26Why are you telling me this?
36:28Because we can't keep letting this kid walk.
36:30We need to put him away.
36:32That's your job, not mine.
36:33I don't do deals.
36:35You got your way, then?
36:42Sorry?
36:43I have no idea what you're talking about.
36:45Thanks to you, I've been suspended.
36:47Right.
36:48Well, as I'm sure you're aware,
36:49that has nothing to do with me and everything to do with you.
36:53You stitched me up with that Indian kid.
36:56Bangladeshi.
36:57And that's not true.
36:58He lied about his confession, and we both know why.
37:01Now can you get out of my way?
37:02This isn't over.
37:14Thanks for that.
37:19Here you go.
37:20So look, you know I hate asking, but we've got these neighbours,
37:29they've got loads of objections, they're determined, they're old,
37:32and they've got nothing else going on in their lives.
37:34So you're not going to ask me how I am, huh?
37:37Been a while.
37:38Dad, I've been busy with work and Beth and John.
37:42But anyway, just to make this clear,
37:45I'm not asking you to, like, intervene or do anything that might seem...
37:49You know, I just thought you might know somebody on the planning committee.
37:54You're a solicitor.
37:56You know exactly what you're asking me.
38:01How's John?
38:03You looking after you?
38:05Well, he's left his job, so I'm working all hours.
38:09Shame we don't all see each other as often as we used to.
38:12Come on, Dad.
38:13If he even knew I was here talking to you, he'd be...
38:16Be what?
38:18You can't blame him for how he feels.
38:21He trusted you with our money, we both did.
38:23He just needs to relax, that's all.
38:25Right, well, he's not like you.
38:29Isn't that the truth?
38:30And that's not necessarily a bad thing, is it?
38:33So, how's my little Beth?
38:36She's all right, you know, teenage girls.
38:40I had one once.
38:45So what do you reckon?
38:47So, you're not going to tell John that you've asked me?
38:52I'll see what I can do.
38:58And if you need any help, now John's not earning.
39:02What, like paying us back the money you owe us?
39:06I'll be in touch.
39:20Beth?
39:22Beth?
39:23You need to eat something.
39:29Ah.
39:30Oh, hi.
39:31Can I just have a...
39:32I'm actually in the middle of doing...
39:33Right, well, do you know who owns that van that was here earlier?
39:36And there was a car.
39:37Well, the van's the builder.
39:39The builder, right.
39:41He was here for a long time.
39:43And, you know, it's unacceptable.
39:44Which is why we need the permits.
39:46So I'm going to pop it on the street group chat,
39:48and I'm going to also ask you to sign my petition.
39:51Why would I sign that?
39:52Well, because people are using our street to park their cars.
39:56You've got a driveway.
39:57Yes.
39:59I have.
39:59Right.
40:02Well, um...
40:03I'm sorry, mate.
40:05I think you're overreacting.
40:06I've got to go.
40:06I'm busy.
40:07What?
40:11Is that lunatic from across the street?
40:16Beth?
40:17I'm doing soup.
40:19You can have soup.
40:20I'm doing soup.
40:38I'm doing soup.
41:10Oh, sorry, Ian.
41:16Nice job with the Bangladeshi kid.
41:18Free to maim to his heart's contempt.
41:20Oh, please.
41:21You and that copper have got history, then.
41:23She's a racist, okay?
41:27For God's sake, Nick.
41:29Give them a load to pout their cars.
41:40You and that copper have got history.
42:10I heard they were killed.
42:18I heard they were murdered.
42:41What do you get up to, oldie?
42:48I see people.
42:49Oh, you're playing in all my nonsense, don't you?
42:51Oh, yeah.
42:52You don't mess with my pipes.
42:53He's not a good person.
42:55Chris said he was violent.
42:56I can't believe this has happened to us.
42:58That you're doing this to us.
43:00The old man can't do you a favour?
43:02Not for free, no.
43:04I could lose a lot of money.
43:05So let's just make sure that does that.
43:08What's wrong with you?
43:09With me?
43:09Yeah, why would you say all that?
43:10I thought we were meant.
43:11So did I.
43:12Why would you say all that?
