00:00Hiya.
00:16I'm in the bad books.
00:18So, Carla walks me into a trap,
00:21pretends to be drunk as a skunk,
00:23and I'm the one you're sulking at.
00:25No, I'm not sulking.
00:27I'm just sick of your games.
00:29You know, and I'm sick of being stuck in the middle.
00:31You and Carla, you and Betsy.
00:33Who made me referee?
00:35It was always gonna be hard, breaking up with someone,
00:37even if she wasn't right for you.
00:39I will not take relationship advice from you.
00:41Not in Carla's house.
00:43Well, I'm in your half.
00:47Not anywhere.
00:53Is the stuff nearly out?
00:55The hospital said to bring personal stuff.
00:57Yeah.
00:59Reminders of what he's got to live for.
01:03Gaffer always said she was her daddy's girl.
01:05Mm-hmm.
01:06I love Ambleside, me.
01:07Coniston.
01:09Is it?
01:10I don't know why I said Ambleside.
01:13I suppose that'll be the house hunting on hold.
01:15Not till he gets back on his feet.
01:17Who bought it last year?
01:19This place.
01:23Thanks for this.
01:25I'll tell Jerome you're asking after him.
01:27Yeah.
01:36DC Green.
01:37What?
01:38I had to leave my lap charge.
01:39Are you here?
01:40Yeah.
01:41Oh, I've both hit the hotel with a scream.
01:42I'm just in the middle of a rather large, lumpish border.
01:43Oh, okay.
01:44I'll wait, I'll wait.
01:45Oh, it's not here.
01:46Mrs Connor joined the planning committee at 12.51 hours.
01:48What?
01:49I hate that.
01:50I'm not minuting anything.
01:51Party checklist.
01:52You said people could leave early so folk had time to get doled up.
01:53If you don't believe me, Fizz was there.
01:54I believe you.
01:55Well, you've been a bit of a rap, er, off radar lately.
01:56Was she gonna say I'm a rap bag then?
01:57I think she was saying that, yeah.
01:58Here we are.
01:59One.
02:00Launcher order.
02:01And...
02:02Cheers, Roy.
02:03See you under the glitter ball, Mrs C.
02:05No.
02:06Maybe I should go off to Lanzarote, by myself.
02:07To the hotel.
02:08Give me a head a wobble.
02:09You know, the hotel was Svenny.
02:11And I said that, people could leave early so folk had time to get doled up.
02:13If you don't believe me, Fizz was there.
02:14I believe you.
02:15Well, you've been a bit of a rap, er, off radar lately.
02:17Was she gonna say I'm a rap bag then?
02:18I think she was saying that, yeah.
02:19Here we are.
02:20One.
02:21Lunch order.
02:22And...
02:23Cheers, Roy.
02:24See you under the glitter ball, Mrs C.
02:25No.
02:26Maybe I should go off to Lanzarote by myself.
02:28To the hotel.
02:29Give me a head a wobble.
02:30Well, the hotel was spenny.
02:32We could salvage something, couldn't we?
02:35Do you mean...
02:36What's that mean? Spit it out?
02:39Well, er...
02:41To leave home for a night after an argument is one thing.
02:45To go for a fortnight sends a completely different message.
02:49What?
03:00You scared me.
03:06You scared me.
03:12You're back.
03:14She's at the gym.
03:17Do you want something?
03:19Do I want something while only just...
03:22come home to, you know, where I live?
03:25Ouch.
03:27Mm-hm.
03:28Ooh.
03:29Actually, if you are back, erm, the washing machine needs sorting.
03:32All my clothes are kind of smelly musty.
03:35Are they now?
03:37I'll ask Jeeves to have a look at it.
03:39Thanks.
03:40How long might she be at the gym?
03:43Honestly, no clue.
03:45But then again, I have no clue about anything.
03:49Like you.
03:51And her.
03:53Well, you made it pretty clear which side you're on and it ain't mine.
03:59And not having a pop.
04:03Because I love you.
04:05I love you.
04:07And, you know, I'm glad that you've been able to give your mum a move on.
04:12Yeah.
04:13It's a good thing.
04:14Isn't it?
04:20Yeah.
04:23But, you know, you...
04:25Your mum, Lisa...
04:30She's got a lot of battle scars.
04:32And, you know, when you fly the nest, I really want to make sure that she's okay.
04:40That's all.
04:47I'll take this stuff upstairs.
04:49Erm...
04:51Can you ask Jeeves if he can help me with my coursework?
04:54Cos it's due next Friday and I can't be bothered.
04:56Will do.
05:03Come on.
05:11You're back?
05:14Never should have left.
05:17Sure.
05:24Company director, Miss Leah Costello.
05:32Laney NW Incorporated on the...
05:34Carla, it's Kit.
05:35Ring me back as soon as you get this.
05:36The Costellos bought a house last year.
05:37Ravensgill on Coniston Lakefront.
05:38Just shy of a million quid.
05:39It was registered to a limited company with Leah as the director.
05:40Right?
05:41But, just for a minute.
05:42I'll take it.
05:43I'll take it.
05:44I'll take it.
05:45I'll take it.
05:46I'll take it.
05:47I'll take it.
05:48I'll take it.
05:49I'll take it.
05:50I'll take it.
05:51I'll take it.
05:52I'll take it.
05:53I'll take it.
05:55Carla, it's Kit.
05:56Ring me back as soon as you get this.
05:59The Costellos bought a house last year.
06:00Ravensgill on Coniston Lakefront.
06:02Just shy of a million quid.
06:05It was registered to a limited company with Leah as the director.
06:08Right?
06:09Just wait for the best bit.
06:10The company was incorporated in 2021 on the 17th of December.
06:15That's a week after Becky's death.
06:17It's a bit of a coincidence, eh?
06:19Just ring me back.
06:27Okay then.
06:28Ding, ding.
06:29Second's out.
06:30I want to.
06:31I've not come to fight.
06:32I haven't.
06:36In fact, I...
06:38I was gonna jet off to Lanzarote, but...
06:41Wow.
06:42Waste not, won't I?
06:43But I didn't.
06:47I didn't because I've...
06:48I know this is where I belong.
06:52At home with you.
06:53I love you.
06:54I think I always will.
06:56I love you.
06:59I think I always will.
07:06I love you too.
07:10Never stopped.
07:11I didn't think I was a needy person, but I guess I am with you.
07:24Um...
07:25I was kind of hoping for...
07:30Some kind of sign...
07:34Of you to...
07:35To show me that...
07:37This all is worth hanging on for.
07:43Do you ever wonder what it's like to be me?
07:45Do you think I really want to live like this?
07:47I just think we need to have each other's backs.
07:49Well, if you really had my back, then you would ease off a bit, wouldn't you?
07:53You'd have trusted me, but you don't.
07:56You just want to manage me like one of your machinists.
08:00That's not fair.
08:01You love me, Carla, but not in the way that I need right now.
08:04I'm sorry.
08:05How's...
08:06How's that?
08:07It's...
08:08It's difficult to explain.
08:09Well, try.
08:10Well, maybe with a bit more understanding.
08:12Lisa, I literally bend over backwards for you.
08:14I mean, I'm a mug, but I do it because it makes your life easier.
08:22Well, let's just admit it.
08:27We've seen the worst of each other and now we can't go back.
08:29Yes, we can.
08:30Of course we can.
08:31Carla, we're chasing a dream, aren't we?
08:33What?
08:34And when we're apart, this all seems possible, but then as soon as we're back in the same room together...
08:37I mean, look at us.
08:40Look at us.
08:44I'm done.
08:46I'm done.
08:48We're done?
08:50You're saying we're done?
08:52Lisa?
08:57Sorry.
08:58I'm sorry.
08:59I'm sorry.
09:28Oh, Mrs. Connor, are you missing Secret Santa?
09:56It's your turn.
09:58You have it, Kirk.
09:59It's just a Malbec.
10:00Hey, how did you know that?
10:03Pick me on me, might be out.
10:05It's the Christmas party.
10:07I know, I've just got a bit of salt out here.
10:09You are going to come to the bistro later though, aren't you?
10:12Maybe, yeah.
10:13Ooh, canaries.
10:15Very nice.
10:16Nice little Christmas treat.
10:18Quite decided, yeah.
10:21Sorry, guys.
10:22Do you mind if I just change?
10:23Oh, sorry, sorry.
10:24Canaries?
10:25I didn't know she liked birds.
10:26Carla, it's Kate.
10:27Bring me back as soon as you get this.
10:28Costello's bought an house last year, Ravensgill on Coniston Lake.
10:29Is that what you want?
10:30Sweetheart, none of this is what I really want.
10:31But we just can't keep having the same arguments over and over and over again.
10:32It's exhausting.
10:33Yeah.
10:34I'm not surprised.
10:35I'm gutted, obviously, but it's just isn't it?
10:36I can't keep having the same arguments over and over and over again.
10:42It's exhausting.
10:43Yeah.
10:44I'm not surprised.
10:45I've got it, obviously.
10:48But it just isn't it?
10:49Why is it?
10:50It's not the same thing of that.
10:51I've got it.
10:52It's not the same thing.
10:53I've got it.
10:54I've got it.
10:55It's not the same thing.
10:56It's just...
10:57I've got it.
10:59It's just...
11:01I've got it.
11:02but it's just, it's infuriating.
11:04Talking about me?
11:06No, not this time.
11:09Carla?
11:12What happened?
11:14Same thing that always happens.
11:19I'm sorry.
11:20But I'm sure you can reason with her.
11:23Oh, don't pretend like this isn't exactly what you wanted.
11:29That ship has sailed.
11:32I should have said plane.
11:34What do you mean?
11:35She'll be on her way to the airport now.
11:37She's going to Lanzarote.
11:39What, on her own?
11:44Merry Christmas, Lise.
11:48Maybe this is for the best.
11:51Well, you would say that, wouldn't you?
11:52Forget about me and you.
11:53Look, this whole thing is seriously stressing you out.
11:57A break from each other is probably exactly what you two need.
11:59She does have a point.
12:00You've got to admit, it smells pretty fishy.
12:06It seems like a trollman's bin, but the point is, I'm done, I told you.
12:10Well, just speak to Costello one more time.
12:12I mean, I'd do it myself, but I'm not 100% sure he trusts me.
12:15Oh, he's not capable.
12:16Carla, come on.
12:17Look, even if we found a big bag marked swag with Becky's fingerprints all over it, she'd
12:23still worm her way out.
12:24I mean, she's always one step ahead.
12:26Everyone's got the breaking point.
12:27Well, I might have.
12:28You might have.
12:29But her?
12:31There's not a hole that she can't worm her way out of.
12:34I mean, just look.
12:35She's dying didn't work.
12:37So you're just going to give up?
12:38No, she's won.
12:40All right?
12:40That's it.
12:42Do you know the way Sarah talks about you?
12:44You think you were fearless.
12:45Yeah, maybe I was once.
12:46So what are you going to do now?
12:48I've got myself booked on a flight to Lanzarati tonight, and the only thing I've got to really
12:52worry about is if I give myself an upgrade.
12:54Carla, we're so close.
12:55You're on your own.
12:56See, I don't believe you.
12:59This is the one chance to get Lisa back, and you're not even going to try.
13:16Hey.
13:18It's Carla Connor again.
13:20Lisa's lane's behind me.
13:21I expect you thought you'd seen the last of me, eh?
13:30Costello.
13:32Remember yesterday when I asked you about Becky?
13:38You kind of gave me a message.
13:41Hill.
13:42Yeah?
13:44Rhubarb.
13:45Yeah.
13:47Okay, I have no idea what they mean.
13:49Okay, do they belong to a password for your laptop or something, or like a code of a case
13:58you were working on?
14:01Please.
14:02Pardon?
14:03Say again.
14:04Please.
14:05They call it word salad.
14:08Sorry?
14:09The stroke.
14:10Even if he knows what he wants to say, the wrong word can still come out.
14:15Right.
14:23You staying long, love?
14:24Can get you a cup of tea?
14:25No.
14:27It's okay, I'll get one on the plane.
14:33Good luck, mate.
14:34Hi, Carla.
14:47I've just been to the factory, and it's all locked up, so, uh...
14:50Well, I'm guessing you're on your way to the airport, then.
14:54Look, please.
14:57Don't go on that plane.
14:58The thought of spending Christmas without you here, I just...
15:06I just can't leave things the way we did.
15:11I love you.
15:15And I can't bear the thought of not having you in my life.
15:19Please.
15:21Call me back.
15:22Call me back.
15:28Hey.
15:30Where are you off to?
15:31Airport.
15:33What?
15:34Why?
15:34Well, I need to stop her.
15:36Do you even know what flight she's on?
15:37Yeah, I've checked.
15:38There's only one today.
15:39Okay, wait.
15:40Have you thought this through?
15:41What is there to think about?
15:42I don't want her to go.
15:43So what?
15:44You're just going to turn up and make a big scene at the airport?
15:46Do you think that's what she wants?
15:47Well, I need to do something.
15:49Okay, just take a breath.
15:50Like, why don't you try phoning her?
15:53No, I've already tried that.
15:54I need to see her in person.
15:55I just don't think that's a good idea.
15:57Yeah, well, when was she's text?
16:00When?
16:05Five minutes ago.
16:08What does it say?
16:15Enjoy Christmas with Becky and Betsy.
16:18I'm going on holiday.
16:21Please stop calling me.
16:23No.
16:28Come on.
16:32Come here in a sec.
