02:36speaking of which hey Clem hi how is it you having a lovely time someone's got their hands full well it's
02:45been quite a journey but she and Joe make a good team well it's hard enough to find someone you want
02:51to spend an evening with let alone a lifetime yeah although I have recently stumbled across a very
02:59sophisticated cosmetic surgery oh yeah oh god we ever get the message problem hey the business call from
03:14Dubai I rudely abandoned you for last night I'm trying to extricate myself so as I can invest in
03:21projects closer to home and what sort of projects oh I couldn't possibly divulge excuse me
03:28hey
03:36uh menus for Nate's memorial um Chas wants you to cast an eye
03:43well take a look later okay well uh in other news I've been doing some digging surrogacy agencies
03:54so you find the same sense well I don't really have a choice do I seeing as you know you lied to
03:58Sarah saying Liam thought it was a great idea I just wanted to be happy what and I don't I don't
04:04like seeing her like this well let's face it she's gonna go ahead and do it anyway ain't she
04:08exactly at least this way we get to keep an eye on her well that's if we can find anyone I've gone
04:14through this entire list and no one's biting well there must be somebody somewhere well as soon as I
04:19say the words life limiting illness can't get off the phone fast enough then don't say it we're not
04:24doing some dingle scam here I think we've all told enough lies don't you if we're doing this we're
04:28doing it right full disclosure what time do you call this my time got a problem with that only when
04:38it's on my time okay I think we've done enough alpha mailing where's our kid cafe working maybe you
04:44should try it I'll give that some thought it is do you want a break yeah right so if the agency is not
04:59going to work and well online forums are suggesting we ask family well there is no family apart from my
05:05belt no way is she an option she's just getting herself back on track and she well who else is
05:09and don't say Monday
05:11Joe what are you doing out here I was thinking of taking ice out for a ride ice you'd be taking your
05:30life in your hands about you I'd stick to one of the hacks is your friend gone Eddie no he's settled in the
05:39sitting room with a copy of country life you have only known him for five minutes are you sure you
05:44should be leaving him alone in the house I don't see any problem with it do you not think maybe that
05:49you're rushing things a little bit with this guy I'm sorry well maybe that it's a little bit too fast too soon
05:56number one I'm no fool number two what concern is it of yours I just don't want history to be
06:03repeating itself that's all I'm not with you well like with will when I came back oh right you're
06:10crossing the line now Joe I'm just worried about you you sure it's me you're worried about or your
06:16inheritance if I want a relationship with someone I don't need your permission so be nice
06:22do I brew a beer no it's I listen I heard about Nate's memorial and for what it's worth I think it's a
06:33great idea what can you tell me about surrogacy surrogacy you're right past it now for another kid
06:40are you not for me for our Sarah Sarah's looking for a surrogacy when since she had a wound removed
06:47funny keep possession hang on a minute I thought no I'm asking the question you just turn that down please
06:51how do we find someone if we don't go through an agency why are you asking me this well because you
07:05and Robert did it well almost I mean where did you find her she was a member of some surrogacy group in
07:14hot and I think she'd done it before have you still got a number yeah maybe King do you really
07:23think you should be concentrating on this when you've got all the next stuff going on just talk
07:26me through it okay um well it's complicated obviously and she holds all the cards and I mean
07:37she was gonna back out at first and then the family got involved told her how great we were and
07:43it's mad actually thinking about it that we would have had a little kid running around if
07:50Robert hadn't got sent down and this um this woman you trusted her yeah I don't think she was in it
08:00for the money she genuinely wanted to help look I'm sorry to call unannounced no it's all right
08:09uh it's about Sarah yeah I heard she was out of hospital you okay yeah I'm just I'm trying to
08:18get my head around all this and and figure out what to do but if there's anything I can do
08:22I'll help you know that well that's what I thought um I can't believe I'm even saying this Vic go on
08:35will you be Sarah's surrogate
09:09I'm not going to let you do to my family what you did to me.
09:15I want to help you steal a kidney.
09:18This ends now, Crowley.
09:39Do you realise the damage that thing could do?
09:44You'd be picking up body parts for days.
09:47And?
09:48Just don't think you've thought this through.
09:50This is over, Crowley.
09:54Is it?
09:55Don't move.
09:56Oh, clearly you've forgotten who you're dealing with.
10:01I was a surgeon, remember?
10:02Nerves of steel dealing with death every day.
10:05But that's not you, is it, Joseph?
10:07You couldn't kill a man in cold blood.
10:10I mean it.
10:11Do you?
10:11I mean...
10:12Really?
10:14You'd be happy to go to prison for murder.
10:18I think you'd rather see your granny on the streets than spend a single night behind bars.
10:24You know nothing about me.
10:25Then prove me wrong.
10:30Prove it.
10:31You see, that's the problem with the youth of today or Barker, no bite.
10:43Please.
10:45I can't.
10:46I can't do that to Kim.
10:55I think you're forgetting about Dawn and the kids.
10:57You stay away from Dawn and you stay away from those kids.
11:01You keep your side of the bargain and I'll keep mine.
11:04How am I supposed to take her money without her knowing it was me?
11:07Not my problem.
11:08You brought this on yourself, Joseph.
11:11Actions have consequences.
11:13Say something, Vic.
11:30Ask me some questions, anything.
11:33It's just a lot to take on board.
11:35No, I know it's a big ask after everything you've been through.
11:40And I hate that I'm even putting it out there.
11:43And you know, if we weren't desperate...
11:45Why me?
11:47Because you're family.
11:50Sarah can trust you.
11:52We can trust you.
11:55I know it sounds mad.
11:56It is mad.
11:57But you know the hard part's done.
11:59Sarah's already had her eggs harvested.
12:01Jacob's passed all the tests.
12:03Jacob?
12:04Jacob?
12:05Or whoever.
12:06I mean, that's not set in stone.
12:08Look.
12:10It's not that I don't feel sorry for Sarah.
12:13Of course I do.
12:15But it's not just her to think about.
12:18There's this baby too.
12:20Who's going to be around for the next however many years.
12:25You might have to grow up without a mum.
12:29I've been there.
12:30I know how that feels.
12:31And I can hear what you're saying, but isn't that the same for anyone?
12:34Any one of us could go out there tomorrow and get hit by a bus.
12:38Doesn't mean we should stop living our lives.
12:40But it is different for Sarah.
12:42But who knows what will happen, Vic?
12:44There could be medical advances.
12:47She could go in to live a really long, happy life.
12:49And hopefully that is what happens.
12:51But right now, Vic, honestly, you should see her.
12:55And what she's going through, she's broken.
12:58So if I can just bring her this one little bit of happiness...
13:03I'm sorry.
13:09It's just because...
13:11It's because you love her so much.
13:15I hate to be putting this on you, Vic.
13:19I've got nowhere else to turn.
13:20Once I ran to you
13:27Now I run from you
13:30This tainted love you've given
13:33I give you all a boy who give you
13:37It's like a coping mechanism I showed her.
13:40Do you have to put up with that all day?
13:42No, only when she's stressed.
13:44Oi!
13:45Pack it in, will you?
13:47What?
13:47My ears are bleeding over here.
13:50Make sure he pays.
13:52Anyway, how are you getting on?
13:54Apart from working with the fog on.
13:56Yeah, well, um, custom engagement's up.
13:57I've been keeping a tally.
13:58I just hope they keep it up once I'm gone.
14:01Gone?
14:01Gone where?
14:02Well, I'm obviously not going to be here forever.
14:05Why not?
14:06Me moving to the village was always going to be temporary.
14:08Yeah, I know you said that at first, but...
14:10You want to stick around now, don't you?
14:12Why would I?
14:15Because I'm here.
14:16Yeah, but I don't want to be washing coffee cups for the rest of my life.
14:19I want to run my own business.
14:21Right.
14:23That isn't a problem, is it?
14:24No, it's just...
14:25It's just been nice having you around, that's all.
14:27For the weed?
14:29Because you're my brother.
14:31Ever once I thought someone I cared about might actually stick around.
14:35Sorry.
14:36I just get a bit needy around family members.
14:39People have a habit of disappearing when they get to know me.
14:41Afternoon, boys.
14:43I've just got a craving for one of those fancy coffees.
14:44Yeah, well, don't expect a discount.
14:47Here's Bob.
14:48Is it true that Brenda went abroad with Bob's daughter?
14:50Yeah.
14:51Why?
14:52Just wondering.
14:52I'm sure she didn't get a chai, though.
14:55Yeah, I'll have a dirty chai.
14:56You OK?
15:06Sorry for blubbing.
15:08No, it's like I said.
15:11We do what we have to for the people that we love.
15:13I know it sounds crazy, but it's the only thing she's ever wanted in her life.
15:22Not sure I'd be up for being pregnant.
15:24I would support you, Vic.
15:26The whole family would.
15:27You'd get whatever you needed.
15:29Vic, what you could give to Sarah and the difference it would make to her life.
15:32I'm just not sure it's...
15:33You don't have to give me your answer now.
15:35I'm just asking, please, will you think about it?
15:37Please.
15:42OK.
15:43I'll think about it.
15:59Ah, this is where you're hiding.
16:03Jo.
16:06Hello.
16:07Sorry.
16:08What'd you say?
16:10I was just wondering where you were.
16:12Yeah, I just, um...
16:13I'm really trying to concentrate.
16:15I've got a lot to get through.
16:17Well, anything I can help with?
16:19No.
16:19OK, well, Sam is out counting grouse.
16:23And Kim is with her friend on a tour of the estate,
16:26so if you fancy freeing up some time in that busy diary of yours...
16:30Oh, just give it a rest.
16:31Whoa.
16:32Sorry, don't...
16:33What's up?
16:35I'm just...
16:35There's a lot I'm trying to deal with right now.
16:37That's just the beginning.
16:40I'm hoping to expand even further once I've freed up some cash.
16:43Hmm.
16:43And is that what the Dubai money's for?
16:45No, that's all earmarked for investment, sadly.
16:49Nice walk?
16:50Yes.
16:50It's what I wouldn't do to live in a place like this.
16:54Don, now take Eddie through to the sitting room.
16:57Show him the old photos of the house.
16:58Hmm.
16:59After you.
17:00I'm sorry about earlier and yesterday.
17:05I'll forgive you this time.
17:08While I've got you, I have been doing some research on a potential investment for your Dubai money when it lands.
17:14Oh, yeah?
17:15Yeah, it's a little solar company based in Scotland.
17:20I thought it might be a good idea.
17:21Well, then, get us some brownie points.
17:24Yeah, well, I'll get a proposal together and we'll go through it tomorrow.
17:28Joe, I know it hasn't always been plain sailing since you came back, but I'm glad you did.
17:36It's good to have someone in my corner.
17:37If you could ring us when you get this message, and the other nine I've sent, if it's not too much trouble.
17:46Thanks.
17:47Bye.
17:49Do you want my headphones?
17:51Right.
17:53That is it.
17:53She's laughing at us, Jimmy.
17:55If the organ grinder isn't available, I am calling the monkey.
18:00What?
18:01Cathy!
18:01You know what kids are like.
18:03She'll have her phone super glued to her eyeballs.
18:05And I got her number out of Angel.
18:07How much?
18:0820 quid.
18:09Don't say anything.
18:11Oh!
18:13It's engaged.
18:13All right, my love.
18:15Yeah, you keep on having a fantastic time.
18:17I love you loads.
18:18Is that Cathy?
18:18It is, yeah, yeah.
18:19You keep in touch.
18:20No, no, no, wait, wait, don't let go.
18:21Bye-bye, speak soon.
18:22Oh!
18:23Where have you been?
18:25Blame me.
18:25Yeah, we had a bit of business to attend to.
18:28Well, Lewis works for me, not you, unless you want to pay his wages.
18:30She's still having trouble getting hold of Brenda.
18:32You don't have to now.
18:34Yeah, we've got it all sorted, haven't we, mate?
18:35What do you mean?
18:36Well, Bob got in touch with Cathy and Brenda was with her.
18:40Finally!
18:40Is she going to ring us back?
18:41She doesn't have to now.
18:43Lewis has been on the phone to her for the past hour.
18:46What are you talking about?
18:47You don't know Brenda.
18:47You don't need to worry any more.
18:49She's agreed to sell.
18:51She's selling up?
18:54To who?
18:56Me.
18:56All right, please.
19:02Say it.
19:03Where have you been?
19:04Been trying to get hold of you?
19:05Harassing me.
19:07He's been talking me through the surrogate him and Robert used.
19:09I thought that wasn't an option.
19:10An agency might not be an option, but that doesn't mean we can't try online.
19:14Hang on, I thought we were going to concentrate on someone from the family.
19:17Not some random effort.
19:18I did say it was risky.
19:20Well, I found someone already.
19:22Some woman from Brighton.
19:23Hang on, that sounds a bit sus.
19:26Who's going to agree to have a baby for a total stranger?
19:28Well, he managed to find someone.
19:30Well, maybe I found someone closer to home.
19:34Who?
19:38Victoria.
19:39Vic's going to do it.
19:40Well, she's not said yes exactly, but then she's not said no either, so...
19:46Who's paying?
19:49So, goodnight.
19:53You know, this has all taken me a bit by surprise.
19:58I pretty much resigned myself to waking up on my own every morning.
20:03Well, it just shows you you don't know what's around the corner.
20:06Hmm.
20:07Cheers.
20:09I could get used to this.
20:11Lord of the manor, master of all life survey.
20:15Oh, by the way, Kim's invited me to stay again this evening.
20:19I've spoken to her.
20:21Okay.
20:22Go on.
20:23I've laid out a proposition.
20:26Let's just hope that she doesn't see through it.
20:28How much?
20:29Enough to keep you off our backs for life.
20:32So, you can go.
20:34Your work here is done.
20:35Do you think I'm an idiot?
20:37I'm not going anywhere until the cash is in the bank.
20:41And don't even think of double-crossing me.
20:44You know what I'm capable of.
20:45Who's for a champagne cocktail before dinner?
20:51Hey, I think we should go out.
20:53You and me?
20:54Yes.
20:55Give them some space.
20:57And we could talk.
20:58You don't mind, do you?
20:59Sounds wonderful.
21:01Right, I'll get ready.
21:03Looks like it's just me and you.
21:05That'd be lovely.
21:11It'd be nice to spend some time alone.
21:14Yes, I think it will.
21:18Come up when you're ready.
21:19Please don't do this.
21:27Like I said, actions have consequences.
21:31Yeah, I could get used to this.
21:35Have a good night.
21:36Have a good night.
