00:00Ah, I was just bringing these upstairs to you.
00:20Well, I'll save you the trip.
00:22Oh, not a shame.
00:24It's a late shift today, isn't it?
00:28Do you know what?
00:29Mmm.
00:31Do you taste better in bed?
00:44Avani?
00:46Avani?
00:48Are you OK?
00:50I'm very quiet lately.
00:52Avani!
00:53I've been ringing you.
00:55Look, um, Dad, I'll catch you up, yeah?
00:57Uh, yeah.
00:58Are you mad at me for telling your nan what you were?
01:05No.
01:07How'd it go?
01:09I didn't go through with it.
01:11What?
01:11What do you mean?
01:12You're going to have the baby?
01:14Well, yeah, obviously.
01:16I'm going to have it, and then I'm going to give it to my grandma and Eve Therese.
01:20What?
01:21I thought you said that was a crazy idea.
01:24Yeah, well, I changed my mind, didn't it?
01:25But, finally, this is huge.
01:27Well, Barney, it's my body.
01:28Yeah, but have you talked to parents?
01:31No, I'm not here.
01:32You can't lie to them about something like this.
01:34OK, well, I'm not lying to them, am I?
01:36Look, this is between me and my grandma, and we know what we're doing, OK?
01:40I've got to go.
01:41Smile.
01:52Might never happen.
01:53Yeah.
01:54Oh, you did.
01:55Now job, now woman, now hug.
01:58Yeah.
02:00I told you.
02:05I told you I was coming here for breakfast.
02:07Can't have any space.
02:08What is it?
02:09Sorry.
02:09Look, I've had a chat with Phil.
02:11He said I can crash at this place, so I'll be clearing out your gaff later.
02:14It's off with me.
02:18Things will turn a corner soon, Dad.
02:21Yeah.
02:23Careful with your greasy fingers, Kim.
02:25I don't want my cards to smell like a chip shop.
02:29You know, most people would send their invitations via email,
02:34send us a ton of money in stamps.
02:36I like to do things traditionally.
02:39Oh, yeah.
02:39So does that mean that you would be needing a, um, made-up honour?
02:46I may do.
02:47You may do.
02:49Oh.
02:49Oh.
02:51Tell me something.
02:52Hmm?
02:53You think this tiara looks a little bit OTT?
02:55Oh, Howie, finally.
02:58Finally.
02:59I can't be sitting down here all day wedding planning.
03:02I've got a business to run.
03:03And Howie here is twiddling his thumb, so you can use him to your heart's content.
03:09Yeah?
03:09I'll see you later, yeah?
03:10Thanks, Howie.
03:11Patrick and Howie.
03:14How you like this dress?
03:16Wow.
03:17Pricy.
03:18Well, I could have a replica made, or they might have something like it on the high street.
03:23I don't want anything fancy.
03:25After all, I'm not a giddy young bride, am I?
03:27Kitty is exactly how you should be.
03:31But leave it to me, sugar girl.
03:32I'll get you the dress of your dream.
03:36Yeah.
03:41Tickets are 250, and we need a coach fair, and I don't have a tent, so...
03:46Yeah, she reckon you're an old man, and they go to a festival.
03:49Well, I've worked really hard for these exams, and I deserve to have some fun.
03:53So, let's call it 500.
03:55500 quid.
03:57Oh, no, I reckon my dad will cover it.
03:59It's brushed out big on a Vini 16, so I'm holding something, man.
04:02And my dad's got, like, three ices, so he can't pull the poverty pardon.
04:06Yeah, mine's just had his hours cut.
04:07What about Kim?
04:09I'll talk to him.
04:15Just one way to work up an episode.
04:18Ah.
04:20Do you think our honeymoon phase will ever end?
04:22I hope not.
04:23You know, it's funny, right, because if we were a heterosexual couple...
04:26Yeah, what?
04:27We'd be thinking about what's next, like kids.
04:30Do you?
04:31What, you never thought about it?
04:32You know I haven't.
04:35Do you know what Vini asked me this the other day?
04:39I think about it.
04:41Sure, what?
04:42No, I'm serious.
04:43I think about it all the time.
04:45Kids?
04:46Well, no, kid, singular.
04:49You think about having a kid?
04:51Yeah.
04:51With me?
04:51Yeah.
04:54I, um...
04:56I hate to break it to you, my love, but I think both of our eggs are a little on the geriatric side.
05:02There's always ways.
05:04What?
05:05What?
05:06I'm being serious, Eve.
05:09I think we'd be amazing parents.
05:15You are serious.
05:16Why is it such a crazy idea?
05:20People have babies all the time.
05:21Worse candidates than us.
05:23So why shouldn't we?
05:24We've never discussed it before.
05:25Well, we're discussing it now.
05:28I...
05:28Is this about Vini and us?
05:30Are you feeling a bit pushed out?
05:31No.
05:32Are you?
05:32No.
05:33Well, maybe.
05:34But look, you said yourself that I was an amazing mum.
05:36Yes, you are.
05:37Right, and that meant the world to me.
05:39See, cos that's how I want to be seen.
05:41Well, what about being a career one?
05:42On both.
05:43And being a good mum matters to me.
05:45You've already done it, Suki.
05:46Yeah, but I did it on my own, Eve.
05:48And with a man I didn't love, and whilst living a lie.
05:52This, me and you, this is right.
05:57And I want us to have a chance at being parents.
06:02Together.
06:06Will you think about it?
06:09Yes, yes, I will.
06:11I will think about it.
06:12Yeah?
06:17I think Stacey did say she wanted me in a little bit earlier,
06:19so I'm going to jump in the shower.
06:23OK, sorry about that.
06:32I got a free coffee, and I thought,
06:39who better to give it to than my hard-working son?
06:42Just had one, sir.
06:44Oh, all right.
06:46I also wondered if you fancied some extra work.
06:50I need a bouncer at the bar.
06:51Look, it's decent pay, OK?
06:52It's four nights a week.
06:53You can fit it around the other stuff that you want.
06:56Oh, my God.
07:01What's happening?
07:02Your friends from Ghana, like me.
07:04Yeah, man, they make them handsome, don't they?
07:07Have a word.
07:08What are you doing?
07:12Oh, I'm going to need your flat to bag up some product this afternoon.
07:15Yeah, yeah, no, it ain't happening, mate.
07:16Not a chance.
07:17Ring out with a gov.
07:20Hello.
07:22Sorry, when my son says no, it means no.
07:27It's Mumsy.
07:27OK, fine.
07:28What time?
07:30Two.
07:30Actually, you may be free.
07:34Lovely to meet you, by the way, Harry.
07:36OK.
07:48Harry, you still here?
07:53Part of me just wants to hide under the quill,
07:56and then the other partner knows it's important to mark these moments,
07:59especially for the kids.
08:01A cat's made a cake.
08:02I hope it's not morbid.
08:06I said don't bite of them ones.
08:08Are you all right?
08:10You've come in early on, you're late,
08:11and I think you've left your brain in the bed.
08:14Sikki wants kids.
08:17Kid.
08:18Singular.
08:19What?
08:21Exactly.
08:21I mean, what the hell is going on?
08:23How did this happen?
08:24I mean, she's in her late 50s, for God's sake.
08:27I thought those hormones were supposed to be switched off by now.
08:31You really sound like a bloke sometimes.
08:33Hang on.
08:34Sikki wants a baby with you.
08:36Yeah.
08:37Mum.
08:38No, Stacey, not.
08:39Oh.
08:40Ew.
08:41Why?
08:42I don't want a baby.
08:43Why not?
08:44Look, the great thing about being gay,
08:46I wonder,
08:47is that you can stick two fingers up at a convention.
08:50Right, so all of those questions
08:52that people feel like they've got the right to ask you,
08:54like when you have any kid or when you have any second,
08:55we don't have to deal with it.
08:58You know, we can just live our lives without any pressure.
09:02You know, I never said I wanted kids, not once.
09:05So just tell her that then.
09:06You don't want them.
09:08It's not that simple.
09:11She's got that look in her eyes.
09:13You know where she's already decided.
09:16Yeah.
09:17It's like,
09:19when Sikki's made up her mind,
09:20you know you're in trouble.
09:20What are you going to do, then?
09:24Why don't you come to the drinks this afternoon,
09:26take your mind off it?
09:27What drinks?
09:30Martin's birthday.
09:31I know you weren't listening.
09:33Sorry, Slice.
09:34Of course.
09:35I'll be there.
09:43Right.
09:43All done here.
09:44Mm-hm.
09:45All done.
09:46All done.
09:47Oh, caddy.
09:48Here is your one.
09:52Special delivery.
09:54Ooh.
09:55Wonder what this could be.
09:58Let's have a look.
10:00Ooh.
10:01You're getting married first of September.
10:03Lovely.
10:04And we're going to have the reception at the meet.
10:06Never heard of it.
10:07Where's that, then?
10:09Here we go.
10:11Oh, Cathy.
10:14Don't you suppose you've got any shifts going, have you?
10:16Post office's a couple of hours.
10:17Oh, no, I'm sorry.
10:18I've just taken Vicky on.
10:20Although, I did hear that they're looking for bouncers over at Harry's barn.
10:25Bouncers?
10:26Yeah.
10:27Have you thought me?
10:30Well, I mean, obviously, Harry, I'm not on the panel, but, well, it's worth a shot, isn't it?
10:35You're done with me, are you, Landy?
10:40Well, you're not going wedding dress shopping with me.
10:43Jork.
10:44Thank you very much for helping me.
10:46You really got me, you know.
10:47I don't want to put my nose in, but I know from experience that gambling, well, it's a mugs game.
11:07Pardon?
11:10Patrick, you're paying for this wedding in the bookies.
11:16That's not where the money has come in from, Cathy.
11:18Okay, well, you can turn a blind eye to it if you want.
11:20But believe me, it is a slippery slope.
11:23And I don't want you ending up at the bottom of it like I did with Rocky.
11:27That's all I'm saying.
11:30But, anyway, thank you for the invitation.
11:32Are you all right, Stace?
11:47I've got this memory jar thing.
11:48The kids have written some messages.
11:50I thought we could all read them out later.
11:51Oh, that's lovely.
11:52Thanks, Kat.
11:54Like that weren't rude.
11:55What are you taking for?
11:56It's all right.
11:57They need to give teachers a pay-wise.
11:59These holidays are going to kill me.
12:01Literally.
12:01Trace?
12:03Okay, Stace.
12:05Have a beard, please, Trace.
12:07I wouldn't give for a pint with that bloke right now.
12:10Hi, Stace.
12:11Sorry, Billy can't make it.
12:12He's got stomach issues.
12:13Oh, don't worry.
12:14Jean's got the trots and all.
12:16Oh, has she?
12:17I just thought he'd eaten a bad burger.
12:19Reckons it's super spreaders.
12:21Pardon?
12:23Kids.
12:24Okay, right, listen, is everyone here?
12:25Lovely.
12:27Oh, pay attention, everybody.
12:28Listen, um...
12:29Um, thanks for coming, okay?
12:32As painful as it is, I think it's great that we're all doing this together, yeah?
12:37Even if it means suffering, Kat's baking.
12:39Oh, it's not, kids.
12:41Here you go, kids.
12:42Oh, good.
12:44And then, make a wish.
12:50Yay!
12:52All right, everybody.
12:54Come on.
12:55This one's for Martin, yeah?
12:58Martin.
12:59Martin.
12:59Martin.
12:59Martin.
13:08What are you doing there?
13:09Phil's out, so I'll be going over later.
13:14Oh, yeah.
13:16It's just, you can't just hang about here.
13:19I'm in the middle of a job application.
13:21You got a problem with that?
13:22Yes.
13:23No, no.
13:24It completely slipped my mind.
13:25My mum, she's interviewing for people down at Harry's barn.
13:28You should go down there.
13:29Yeah, well, nice of you to think of me, but I'm aiming a bit higher than barmen.
13:33Yeah, of course.
13:35Man of your calibre, she's after a bar manager.
13:39Really?
13:39Yeah, yeah.
13:40She's had a window open for interviews this afternoon, and she asked me if I knew anyone,
13:44and I thought, well, you.
13:45She said you should go down there.
13:46Well, you mentioned Martin now?
13:47Yeah.
13:48She is.
13:49It's all right.
13:49Anything to help out of, mate.
13:51Right, well, have a shower, spruce up, get myself over there.
13:55Well, no, she's interviewing now, like in the next hour, and my mum's not a woman who hangs
13:59about, so.
14:00Okay.
14:01Let's strike while the iron's up.
14:02Yes, my man!
14:04Okay, looking good.
14:06Right, yeah.
14:08Go.
14:09All right.
14:11Cheers.
14:11See ya.
14:21Mum, it's me.
14:23Before you get carried away, I'm not waving a white flag, but I might be dusting it off if
14:29you can do me a solid.
14:33What does it say, sweetheart?
14:35I remember when we made Martin a leopard print money belt.
14:39It was the day we knew he was a slater.
14:41Is that him?
14:42Is that him?
14:43No.
14:43It's me.
14:45I can be sentimental sometimes.
14:47Oh, man.
14:49My turn.
14:52Sharon?
14:53Why is it in your scroll?
14:54She got in touch earlier from Australia.
14:56She just said she wanted to be included.
14:58Oh, that's nice.
14:59Yes.
14:59I remember me and Michelle babysitting Martin when he was a nipper and going to read him a story
15:04only to find him jumping up and down on the bed wearing my lipstick in his birthday suit.
15:08Oh, nice.
15:10Okay, right.
15:11Uh-oh, talking of birthday suits.
15:16Right, and this is, I remember when I pulled Martin's towel off in the kitchen.
15:22Kat.
15:23Guilty.
15:24I was hilarious, wasn't I?
15:26She did.
15:27Yes.
15:30You okay?
15:31Yeah.
15:33I'm just saying I wouldn't be here without my kids.
15:35Stace.
15:36No, I'm not trying to persuade you.
15:38I'm just saying that don't take stuff from you.
15:41They give you stuff so much.
15:46You get another one.
15:48Harry, just, just, just swing by later, all right?
15:52Yeah.
15:54Sorry about that.
15:55Please, take a seat.
15:57Uh, I was going to get changed, but Harry insisted that I get here straight away, so.
16:02You're nice and tall, aren't you?
16:06I can't actually remember the last time I had an interview, so I'm a bit rusty.
16:10Lovely big hands.
16:13Well, I've been my own boss.
16:15Most of my adult life, run a successful bar in Marbella, and obviously you know about the Vic.
16:19Sorry, I'm going to stop you there, George.
16:21I'm a bit more interested in your brawn than your brains.
16:25I thought you wanted a bar manager.
16:27No, a bouncer.
16:29Oh, Harry should have said.
16:31Bouncer.
16:32Well, yeah.
16:33Sorry, you've got the wrong guy.
16:35Oh.
16:36I think the job's beneath you, dear.
16:37Well, I'm not about to start being a door boy at this age, so.
16:41Thanks all the same.
16:42Where are you going?
16:43Home.
16:44I didn't think you had a home.
16:46Excuse me?
16:49Oh, sorry.
16:50That was a joke.
16:51Please.
16:57Harry must have got confused.
16:59I thought you realised the position was for a bouncer.
17:02Right?
17:02I'm not trying to mug you off.
17:04God knows.
17:05I'm not going to judge someone for having a car crash of a personal life, am I?
17:09I mean, I live on me own.
17:10My marriage has just blown up, and my eldest son ain't talking to me.
17:13I mean, honestly, George, I may be smiling, but on the inside, I am screaming.
17:19What?
17:20Not in a psycho way.
17:22Look, chill out.
17:24Do you want a drink?
17:25All right.
17:26Man, I have had my eyes on this horse for a long, long time.
17:37You know, it's four months been building nicely, and the conditions today, man, it's perfect.
17:42Patrick, a word.
17:43All right, baby.
17:44What is it?
17:47It's my fault.
17:49My eyes have grown bigger than our bank balance.
17:52That is what is driving you to do all this.
17:54It's getting out of hand, Patrick.
17:56I can't condone it.
17:58You condone what?
18:01I don't want belts.
18:02I don't want whistles.
18:04I just want you, as you are.
18:07I don't want you battered and broken into destitution just because of a wedding.
18:11It's a matter of matter.
18:12I don't fall off.
18:13I wish you had to track the gambling in my...
18:16Baby, I know what you're doing, man.
18:18Patrick, your horse lost earlier in the week.
18:22You know, that means that my bad luck out of the week.
18:24Patrick, I'm not asking you.
18:25I'm telling you.
18:25Just stop it.
18:28Come here, please.
18:34Okay.
18:35No, no, no, no.
18:36Hey, at that point.
18:39Whoa!
18:40So sweet.
18:41Whoa!
18:45So sweet.
18:46Wait, when it last year was in the Square Gardens, were we celebrating his mistake, thought you have?
18:53It's horrendous.
18:54I'm going to feel awful.
18:56Oh, and I was making jokes about eye cream for weeks after.
18:58I mean, it's a bit better.
18:59Yeah, he loved it.
19:00He did, he did.
19:02Hi!
19:02Jackie!
19:04Oh, I'm trying.
19:05It's fine now.
19:06Mine?
19:07Hello.
19:08Hello.
19:08Yeah.
19:09Hot stuff?
19:10Oh.
19:11What can I get you?
19:12Some of my tipsy?
19:14Yeah, I might have had a couple of drinks.
19:17Actually, I think this is one of his white wines, so we could just steal a glass room.
19:21Oh, no, just an orange juice, please.
19:24Well, we're celebrating.
19:25Can I?
19:25Yeah, I just, um, won't have a chat later.
19:28I need a clear head for him.
19:30Oh!
19:31Oh!
19:33Oh, that is a beautiful dress.
19:36Oh, how lovely do you look?
19:39Oh!
19:43What?
19:45You.
19:46Just so transparent.
19:48What do you mean?
19:49Well, you think that me seeing you with a cute kid is going to make me all gooey-eyed?
19:54What?
19:55I don't want kids, okay?
19:57I never said I did, so, come, will you please just drop it?
20:01Thanks.
20:02Thanks for thinking about it.
20:05I get the old issues.
20:17Yeah.
20:19Manifested that to your ground yet?
20:21Uh-uh.
20:21And what are you doing here?
20:25I was starving.
20:26Even my boy Einstein couldn't have cracked relativity in an empty stomach.
20:30Ian.
20:32Please.
20:33Are you sure you won't pop in?
20:35For Martin's sake.
20:36I can remember Martin without sharing oxygen with the Slaters.
20:39I thought we might go to his grave, you know?
20:42Mason Flowers.
20:44Mum, I'd love to.
20:45All right, but half my staff are offering a new virus.
20:49I'm stuck here.
20:50Consider yourself unstuck.
20:52I'll never get sick.
20:55I've got one of those super shim and immune system things going on, so, yeah, I'll step into the breach.
21:02You are joking.
21:05I know.
21:06It's a generous offer.
21:07Don't feel bad.
21:08Family's important.
21:10And we all love Martin.
21:11You never met Martin?
21:13Never met him with his Chalamet either.
21:15Love is real.
21:16And Martin, he was a legend.
21:19Hmm?
21:20Ian.
21:20He's right, isn't he?
21:22Come on, please.
21:23We should mark today.
21:25Come on.
21:27Give us the penny.
21:32I've been shunned you to bump shit.
21:34Bright boy, Brian.
21:36Selling chips.
21:38I've got this.
21:41Show him.
21:43But you think you're past the stage where you make your kids cringe, eh?
21:46And then Kodo starts.
21:50Sometimes I'll stand too close to him.
21:52And he shudders.
21:54Literally.
21:55I thought he was your brother.
21:57He is?
21:59Tragic, isn't it?
22:01I mean, I'm cool, eh?
22:02I mean, you know, cool to most people.
22:06Ian Beal.
22:07Oh, God, George.
22:08That isn't aiming very high, is it?
22:12Well, I shouldn't.
22:13Come on, what's the point in having a midlife crisis if we can't enjoy it?
22:16I think you're fine.
22:18I'm probably on the halfway stage.
22:20You look young.
22:21That's all that matters.
22:22And I reckon they invented the midlife crisis so we could get away with doing things we shouldn't.
22:26Can I ask you something?
22:33You and Elaine, what was that about?
22:37What do you mean?
22:37It's no offence.
22:38It's just I imagine you, right, with someone a lot more...
22:41I had someone, I thought, more.
22:45Whatever that means.
22:47It didn't end well.
22:49Elaine's a good woman.
22:51I'll not have a bad word said about her, all right?
22:53I respect that.
22:55It's refreshing to have someone not slag off their ex.
22:59And it's a good quality I look for in a bouncer.
23:02No, come on, I mean it, right?
23:03I don't want some thug working my door.
23:07I want someone with good judgement.
23:10Someone who can keep their head.
23:12I'm drinking whiskey in the middle of the day.
23:15So I would say my judgement is a bit questionable.
23:17Yeah, well, you're just following boss's orders.
23:21Another quality I look for in an employee.
23:27I should go.
23:28You should do a lot of things.
23:29But, you know, sometimes the things you shouldn't do are a lot more fun.
23:43Come on, yeah.
23:44Done.
24:01Oh, make sure you wipe them phones as well, you know.
24:05Good boy.
24:06Do you need to get in there?
24:35Problem?
24:36No.
24:55I'm sorry, that was clumsy.
25:02Forgive me?
25:06Look, it's just, you're suddenly saying all this stuff, you know, about wanting a kid.
25:11It's just really freaking me out.
25:12Yeah.
25:13I can see that.
25:16I love you and I love our life.
25:18And I'm the happiest I've ever been.
25:21Yeah, me too.
25:22Right, so surely that's enough?
25:24Yeah, it is.
25:25I never said it wasn't.
25:28And it's because I'm happy with you that I want this.
25:30You don't even like kids.
25:33I do.
25:33I can't imagine you're on the floor playing like all covered in goop.
25:36Well, no, because that would be your job.
25:37Me?
25:38Yeah.
25:38Because you were the big kid, eh?
25:43I'd teach them discipline and teach them to tell the time.
25:50And you would do the silly voices and let them ride on a bike.
25:53We'd be a brilliant team, Eve.
25:59And you would be an amazing parent.
26:02You don't know that.
26:05That's what it's about, isn't it?
26:07You're scared.
26:09Suki, I'm just not wired for it.
26:10Says who?
26:11Says...
26:12Says your mum, your dad, your guilty conscience.
26:14Come on.
26:16Hey, you are the most fearless person I know.
26:19We've all got demons.
26:22This voice inside our head that tells us we don't deserve something.
26:26And maybe somewhere, on some level, those words have gone in.
26:33I mean, my mum did say, at least you won't have kids.
26:37At least that gene won't get passed on, so that's a blessing.
26:40I mean, I know, I know, I know.
26:41It's ridiculous.
26:42It's homophobic nonsense, but...
26:45Maybe you are right.
26:47And maybe I've never gotten over it.
26:51Because I never had to, right?
26:53Because...
26:54No one ever made me feel like it was an option.
26:58Until now.
27:01Eve, you are kind, you're caring, you're funny and patient.
27:07You'd be an amazing mum.
27:10You would.
27:16Family.
27:17Yeah.
27:19Our own little family.
27:26Wow.
27:29Is that a good well or a bad well?
27:31It's a good well.
27:32It is a good well.
27:34I'm not saying definitely yes, okay.
27:37I'm not.
27:38But we can look at...
27:39At some options.
27:41See what's possible.
27:43So you'll consider it?
27:44Oh, for you.
27:55So you up for it then?
27:59Are you up for having my baby?
28:00Yeah.
28:00I'm not saying...
28:01I'm not saying...
28:01I'm not saying...
28:02I'm not saying...
28:02I'm not saying...
28:03I'm not saying...
28:03I'm not saying...
28:04I'm not saying...
28:04I'm not saying...
28:04I'm not saying...
28:05I'm not saying...
28:06I'm not saying...
28:07I'm not saying...
28:07I'm not saying...
28:07I'm not saying...
28:07I'm not saying...
28:08I'm not saying...
28:09I'm not saying...
28:09I'm not saying...
28:09I'm not saying...
28:09You
