00:00Hello? Anyone around? I'm on the scrounge for some eggs.
00:24How can you be so full of the joys after sinking all that gin last night?
00:30Oh, the hangover's worth it. Seeing those brilliant girls bring it back home again.
00:36Spoken like a true footy fanatic.
00:38I'm so proud of them. Carrying on fighting despite having...
00:42Lost the World Cup.
00:45But look at them now, eh?
00:47Indeed. Defending the title. The whole country rooting for them.
00:52Yeah, and they're gonna keep on doing it over and over again. There's no stopping them now.
00:57Cos you know what lionesses do?
00:59They roar!
01:01Oh!
01:03Kim, what do you mean you're gonna be a while? I've got deliveries to make.
01:09Yeah, but Mackenzie's not coming in. What would chance you're going into hospital?
01:15Oh, look. Just get here as soon as you can.
01:24What do you want?
01:26Just out for a walk.
01:28On my land?
01:30Yeah.
01:31Well, here's the thing. Are you absolutely sure that you want to keep this as your land?
01:37Oh, I thought I made myself clear where you could shove that offer.
01:41Yeah, you did. And I passed that note on to Kim and she was equally as amused as I was.
01:47I spoke to Dawn and she told me that there's actually easier ways to make money than buying this place. I agreed.
01:54Well, thanks for the update. Bye for now.
01:59Well, unfortunately for you, it's not really about money anymore, is it?
02:04It's more about my determination to get Kim whatever she wants at whatever cost.
02:10You have two choices. You can sell now at a really reasonable price, or we can just take it anyway and leave you foraging for scraps.
02:22Unless you have a better idea.
02:30So, did I give you the Dawson Garvey quote?
02:32Yeah, got it. Sent it off.
02:34Okay, and the Stuart place cards. Got them right here. I couldn't cope without you for a few days, okay? Go.
02:40Okay.
02:41Have fun.
02:43Oh, hey.
02:44See ya.
02:45Bye.
02:46If you're looking for it, Paul, she starts later.
02:48No, I know. I wanted to talk to you, actually. It's...
02:52about this apprenticeship.
02:54Oh, you worried that we're gonna take advantage?
02:56No, it's not that. Um...
02:59Belle.
03:01These last few months have been awful for April.
03:06And working here, you know, it's given her something to look forward to.
03:09God, I'm so glad.
03:11But it's time for her to go back to school.
03:13Or it will be, after the summer.
03:15She said she wasn't going back to school.
03:18This was all April's idea.
03:20I know what she said.
03:22But I need you to cancel it.
03:24The apprenticeship.
03:26Listen, I know it's a form of education. I know that.
03:29But it's not exam passes.
03:31And there's no good reason why she can't get them and then decide what she wants to do.
03:34And if that's working here, and you still want her, that's fine with me.
03:38What do you want me to say to her?
03:40Well, I'd leave that to you, but...
03:42Obviously not that I've been in.
03:44Well, no, obviously not.
03:45Because we need to make me the bad guy, not you.
03:47I'm sorry. I know it's a lot to ask, but would you?
03:50Please.
03:53So...
03:55You're really going through with it?
03:56Oh, Grandad.
03:57No, no, listen.
03:58I respect your decisions.
04:00It's a big deal.
04:02You'd be remiss of me if I didn't ask.
04:05And we're really going through with it.
04:07Okay.
04:08Well, Tracy's upstairs.
04:11I have a pressing golfing appointment with Rudders.
04:16A hundred smackers in it.
04:18Ha, ha, ha, ha.
04:19Ah...
04:22Good luck.
04:25I mean, it...
04:26Yeah.
04:27Same to you getting through the windmill.
04:29Ha, ha, ha, ha.
04:31Hello?
04:32You do do coffee, don't you?
04:35Yeah, we do, but I'm not really working.
04:37I'll do as a flat-wire with oat milk, will you?
04:39Right, okay.
04:43It's got to be oat milk, yeah?
04:44I understand English.
04:46A lot of times it gets mixed up.
04:48Not by me.
04:49I've suffered with mix-ups myself, so I'm careful.
04:51Tracy!
04:52Oh, yeah, er, Vic was saying, erm...
04:54Nuts, is it?
04:56Yeah.
04:57And John saved your life?
04:58Ah, last time it happened, yeah.
05:00Tracy!
05:01What happened?
05:02Drinks mixed up, that's why I'm careful.
05:05And...
05:06What did John do?
05:07I'm not really sure, I was busy flipping out.
05:09Tracy, I've got a customer, we've got to go.
05:12O-milk's in.
05:14Just needs steaming.
05:15Tracy won't be a minute.
05:16Enjoy.
05:22How are you feeling?
05:23Er...
05:24A bit scared that I might disappoint you.
05:26Excited that I might not.
05:29Oh, here he is.
05:30Hi.
05:31Er...
05:32I got you both these.
05:34Because I don't think I'm gonna be able to make it.
05:37Cain messaged and said that he's really snowed under up the farm.
05:41Well, just trying to work harder.
05:43Yeah, I would, but he's been at it since yesterday, and he was up again.
05:47At five this morning.
05:49Right, okay, you go then.
05:50You go and help.
05:51Are you sure?
05:52Yeah, um...
05:54Fine.
05:55I've got this.
05:56We're all right, aren't we?
05:57Yeah, of course we are.
05:58It's not an excuse.
05:59I know it isn't.
06:00That's why your head's still firmly on your shoulders.
06:03Go on, and don't strain yourself.
06:04No, no.
06:05I won't.
06:06Erm, do I ever.
06:07Good luck.
06:08I mean it.
06:09I know you do.
06:13Hi.
06:14We good?
06:15Er...
06:16Are we good?
06:17Yeah.
06:18Let's do this.
06:19Hm.
06:21Wow.
06:22What?
06:23Was that what you were taking?
06:25For a whole day?
06:26Well, unlike you, I don't need a thousand options for a one night trip.
06:31Are you sure you can't come with us?
06:33The kids won't mind if you want to pack a bag.
06:35Hmm.
06:36It's London, it'll be fun.
06:37You know I'd love to, but I've got a plan to...
06:39help move things along with Moira.
06:42I don't want to know, do I?
06:43Probably not, no.
06:44Plausible deniability and all that.
06:46Okay.
06:47Works for me.
06:49Are you ready?
06:59Good.
07:02Get it done.
07:05Whatever it takes.
07:16Moira, are you ready?
07:17Yeah, cos that's a great idea.
07:18Will you play?
07:19Oh, I'd love to, darling, but...
07:20No, I've really got to go and get that South Topfield gate fixed.
07:30Nice time, though, yeah?
07:32Yeah.
07:33Mo?
07:34Yes, sweetheart?
07:35Are we gonna lose our house?
07:36Why'd you ask that?
07:37Well, Kyle said.
07:38I heard you and Dad.
07:39Right, come here, bring it in.
07:40I know that things have been tough just lately, right?
07:41But we're gonna be okay because your dad and I are on top of it, so you have nothing to
07:55worry about.
07:56Okay?
07:57Okay.
07:58All right.
07:59Messi gets it.
08:00Messi?
08:01He's brilliant!
08:02He's ancient!
08:03Yes!
08:04Leeds take the lead!
08:05Leeds!
08:06Leeds are rubbish!
08:07We are Premier League!
08:08We are Premier League!
08:09We are Premier League!
08:10We are Premier League!
08:11We are Premier League!
08:12Go in the house.
08:13I'll go check.
08:14I'll come!
08:15Go in!
08:16Oh, here he is.
08:17How is the great outdoors?
08:18Everything I expected it to be.
08:19That bad, was it?
08:20Oh, thank you.
08:22Personally, I've never understood the mentality of having a new house.
08:24I'm not sure.
08:25I'm not sure.
08:26I'm not sure.
08:27I'm not sure.
08:28I'm sure.
08:29I'm sure.
08:30I'm sure.
08:31You're not sure.
08:32I'm sure.
08:33I'm sure.
08:34You're not sure.
08:35I'm sure.
08:36I've never understood the mentality of having a nice house.
08:39But going to live under a rag for a bit.
08:41Having the kids wee in a bucket.
08:43And eating something that looks like it's been picked up off the pavement outside a kebab house on a Saturday night.
08:49It's poverty tourism, basically.
08:51Oh, that seems great.
08:53Hold me back.
08:54I want to go.
08:55Sorry, I'll just have whatever he's having, Jimmy.
09:00Cheers.
09:01Cheers.
09:06I mean, it's not as bad as you make, you know.
09:08At least this time John took me camping nowhere near mid-December.
09:11It's not freezing cold.
09:13And do you know what?
09:14He's mad for all this camping stuff.
09:15So I don't want to be a killjoy and do all the...
09:20I mean, speaking of killjoys, hello?
09:22Mackenzie.
09:24Sorry.
09:25Sorry.
09:26I've...
09:27I've just got a lot on my plate today.
09:29Yeah, well I can tell.
09:30It's today implant day.
09:32Should you not be on the way to the hospital?
09:34No.
09:35Going to the farm.
09:37Why?
09:39Work.
09:40They're busy and they need me.
09:43Well...
09:44I don't know.
09:46Okay, so...
09:47Sorry.
09:48So today's not...
09:49No, no, no.
09:50No.
09:51It is.
09:52No, I don't...
09:53I don't get it.
09:55Do you...
09:56Do you...
09:57Do you want to talk about it?
09:58What?
09:59What?
10:00I didn't...
10:01Nothing.
10:02No.
10:03No.
10:04Don't want to talk about it.
10:05Of course you don't.
10:06It's just...
10:07Maybe we should talk about it.
10:09Is anyone here?
10:18Great.
10:19Get out.
10:20Go on, or I'll call my dad.
10:22Alright, easy kid.
10:23We don't want to hurt you, alright?
10:24But we will if we have to.
10:28Sorry.
10:32You're in for it now.
10:34You think?
10:39There's a number of things that could happen right now.
11:02But here's what won't.
11:04You won't touch my boy with that, because if you do, I will be forced to use this.
11:08You're bluffing.
11:09Am I?
11:10You hurt my legs really bad.
11:12Well, you know where the door is?
11:14Put.
11:15It.
11:16Down.
11:18You!
11:19You're sorry.
11:20I can't quite understand what you're trying to say.
11:22Come on!
11:24I said, come on!
11:31Come here.
11:32You alright?
11:33You're alright.
11:34I've got you.
11:35I've got you.
11:38I've got you.
11:43Bad time.
11:45Would it matter?
11:46It's...
11:47Oh, you didn't...
11:48You didn't exactly give me a firm yes earlier.
11:51Because I can't.
11:52Belle.
11:53I have been in April's shoes, remember?
11:56Well, a version of them.
11:58So, when people avoided me, or they rejected me, that played into the worst thoughts I had
12:04about myself.
12:05Please don't make me do that to April.
12:07If I shut that door on her...
12:09Then she'll open another one that gives her a shot at a better future.
12:12One where she gets an education, qualifications that just give her options.
12:17I'm only asking that you help give April the choices she deserves in the long term, please.
12:30April, hey.
12:32I can't chat right now, but, erm...
12:35I'm gonna move my meetings around, and do you wanna meet at the pub for a catch-up at
12:39two?
12:40Okay, great.
12:41Yeah.
12:42So you'll do it?
12:44I'll, er...
12:45I'll just take these things to the kitchen and pop them in the dishwasher.
12:57Something else you can't do in the great outdoors.
12:59Oh, no.
13:00What did nature ever do to you?
13:01Oh, the things I could tell you.
13:03Yes.
13:04It's all just another normal day where your wife is potentially getting impregnated by
13:14her granddaughter's fiancée.
13:15Fiancée?
13:16Yeah, that was over a couple of days ago.
13:18Bigger picture, yeah.
13:19Well, I tell you what, why don't you just give me the problem in a nutshell?
13:23Well, in a nutshell, I don't particularly want what I just said to happen on account
13:27of it being incredibly weird and uncomfortable for me.
13:30In a larger shell...
13:31A conquer nutshell?
13:32Still a nut.
13:33No, it's not, actually.
13:34It's just a common misconception, but go on.
13:39It could be seen as a little bit insensitive of me to, yet again, get in the way of Charity,
13:45giving her granddaughter her only wish.
13:48She's forgiven me for a lot of things before in the past, but she will not forgive me for
13:53that.
13:54And there's also a chance that it won't even happen anyway.
13:56Yeah, but, mate, what if it does?
13:58What are you gonna do then?
13:59Just push it down forever?
14:00That's what I normally do.
14:01It's all right.
14:02It's all over now.
14:03You all right?
14:04Aye.
14:05Where's Isaac?
14:06He's playing, but we didn't tell him.
14:07Hey.
14:08You are a top lad.
14:09I am so proud of you.
14:10Thanks.
14:11Go and find your brother.
14:12Go on.
14:13Here, go.
14:14And that chocolate.
14:15Joe Tate written all over it.
14:20Joe Tate written all over it.
14:21That's probably why he was here earlier.
14:22It's gone too far.
14:23Threatening my kids.
14:24No one gets away with that.
14:25Hey, hey, Kane.
14:26What is your plan exactly?
14:27Is that pitchfork still in the barn?
14:28Yeah, and that's where it needs to stay.
14:29So what?
14:30We do nothing.
14:31Hope it doesn't happen again.
14:32Keep the kids inside.
14:33No, no.
14:34We just let the police deal with it.
14:35And what's that got to achieve?
14:36Well, it'll keep you out of prison at the very least.
14:40I'm sorry.
14:41I need to tell her something.
14:42She's in with the dog.
14:43I need to tell her something.
14:44You're in with the dog.
14:45What's the dog?
14:46I need to tell her something.
14:47You're in with the dog.
14:48I need to tell her something.
14:49Hope it doesn't happen again.
14:50Keep the kids inside.
14:52No, no.
14:52We just let the police deal with it.
14:54And what's that going to achieve?
14:55Well, it'll keep you out of prison at the very least.
15:00I'm sorry, I need to tell her something.
15:02She's in with the doctors.
15:03What are you doing?
15:04Has she had the procedure?
15:06Hey.
15:08It's all done.
15:09Went well, didn't it?
15:11That's amazing.
15:12Ooh.
15:16Hey, you.
15:17Hi.
15:19What are you doing here?
15:21I just...
15:23I came to...
15:24to do this.
15:26Aww.
15:28And...
15:29I wanted to tell you something.
15:31Yeah?
15:32What, right now?
15:34Yeah.
15:35If that's okay.
15:37Go on.
15:39I just want to say that I think that you're brilliant.
15:44And I love you.
15:45Police are here.
15:55Ah, thank you, Lydia.
15:56I can see that.
15:58Officer, to what do I owe the pleasure?
16:01I'm responding to a call from Butler's Farm.
16:05It appears they've had intruders.
16:07This is home farm.
16:08Is everyone all right?
16:10One of the kids was held against his will and threatened with a weapon.
16:14Oh, my goodness.
16:15I'd best go give Moira a call.
16:19And so you're here to tell us to be vigilant in case other farms are targeted?
16:24Not quite.
16:25Everyone's safe and well, but there was some violence used.
16:29Oh.
16:30How terrible.
16:31You wouldn't happen to know anything about that, would you?
16:34No.
16:36Why would you think that I might?
16:38I understand you offered to buy their farm on Kim Tape's behalf.
16:42But they turned you down.
16:44Okay.
16:46Have you ever bid on an auction before, officer?
16:51Every now and then.
16:53And have you always walked away with the item that you wanted?
16:55No, who does?
16:57I fail to see how...
16:58So, when your bid fails, do you send intruders around to the cellar's house on a mission of violence?
17:05That's not quite the same, is it?
17:07It's close enough to show you how ludicrous your line of questioning is.
17:12Thank you for your time.
17:14Always a pleasure.
17:28I'm so grateful for this opportunity.
17:30Sorry to sound formal and I know that we're family, but you will not regret it, I promise.
17:35I don't want you to think that this is a reflection of what me and Dawn think about you or your work.
17:43Look, I know we said we would take you on as an apprentice, but what?
17:50I'm really sorry, April, it's just, it's not possible at the minute.
17:54Why isn't it?
17:56Um, well, just, because it wouldn't feel right without parental consent, meaning that my dad's got to you.
18:04You know, he's not got to me.
18:07Okay, just, before you start kicking off at me.
18:13Listen, I got pregnant, I ran away, I lived rough and I lost my baby.
18:20None of that is normal for a kid my age.
18:23And when I came home, being normal didn't exactly feel normal either, because of all of that.
18:28Working as an events planner isn't normal for a kid my age either.
18:35But everything else makes me feel weird or stupid.
18:38And this job makes me feel good enough.
18:41And that is something I haven't felt for a long time.
18:44All I'm trying to do...
18:46I know what you're trying to do.
18:47You're trying to look after me.
18:49And I appreciate it.
18:50And please, please don't ever stop doing that.
18:54But, Dad, this job...
18:56It makes me feel like I can look after myself.
19:01It's a badly paid gig at a tiny little firm, and it makes me feel amazing.
19:06What is the one thing that you want from me more than anything?
19:11That you'll be happy.
19:13You have the power to make that happen right now.
19:21Have you got any apprenticeships going?
19:24Yeah, definitely.
19:35Well, please tell me you've locked him up.
19:37Not exactly.
19:38So what exactly?
19:39Look, he's sent thugs round here to intimidate and terrify my family.
19:44My children.
19:45Mr Tate denies any involvement.
19:47He seemed very surprised for what that's worth.
19:51Well, it's worth nothing.
19:51Wait, what were you expecting?
19:53A written confession?
19:55The idea is you find things out.
19:57I understand how upsetting this is.
19:59No, you don't understand at all.
20:00Till you've seen some thug terrorise your son with a pitchfork.
20:04Fair enough.
20:05Well, all I can promise at this point is we'll continue to look into the matter.
20:09Right.
20:16That's the police tried.
20:18Well, now.
20:21Right.
20:23Olives.
20:24You've got green ones?
20:29Uh, awaiting delivery.
20:31Oh.
20:32Can't eat the black ones.
20:34Well, I can.
20:34I just hate them.
20:36I'm not allergic or anything.
20:37Well, like I said.
20:39Hey, I heard our John saved your Jacob from an allergic reaction.
20:43Yeah.
20:43Yes, indeed he did.
20:44Uh, just in the nick of time, thank goodness.
20:49Still can't understand how it actually happened, but, uh...
20:52Well, it's pretty straightforward, isn't it?
20:54You have an allergy, you've got it shot.
20:56No, no, no, no, no.
20:57Uh, Jacob's, uh, quite cautious.
20:59He's been caught out before, so, uh...
21:01Right, he's got all those funny pens everywhere.
21:05He's very prepared.
21:07But not that day?
21:08Uh, no.
21:09Uh, apparently the...
21:11The one that he had on him, he misplaced.
21:14Oh.
21:15First time for everything, I suppose?
21:18Yeah.
21:18Yeah, I suppose.
21:19Thankfully, John was, uh, Mr. Right Place in the right time again.
21:24Again?
21:25Yeah.
21:26He saved Chas, too.
21:30Doc Liam's ex-girlfriend, uh, in a fit of pique,
21:34meddled with Chas's medication.
21:37Could have been very nasty.
21:39So we're very lucky we've got him here.
21:42Yeah.
21:43John!
21:44Where are you?
21:46Where is he?
21:49Are there no lines that you won't cross?
21:51Yes, there are.
21:53And the thing I suspect that you're referring to is one of them.
21:56Is there anything else?
21:57Because I'm pretty sure you've left the door open.
21:59You said that you would take my land at any cost.
22:02Is this the cost?
22:03Threatening my child's life?
22:04Well, he's not exactly innocent, is he?
22:06What did you say?
22:07Moira!
22:07Oh, my God, are you OK?
22:14Don't!
22:14Just leave, please.
22:20If you ever try and harm my family again...
22:23I think the only one doing that right now is you.
22:25Yeah, well, just stay the hell away from him!
22:26Let's just start with...
22:34This is Sam.
22:35Woohoo!
22:36Woohoo!
