07:29time
07:49okay um been thinking about what you said earlier about the wedding oh what about it
07:56The small details of wedding, like music, they mean a lot.
08:08You're looking forward to this wedding, aren't you?
08:11You sure?
08:13Really?
08:15Of course I'm looking forward to marrying you, Landy.
08:20You know, there was so many people.
08:28Maybe we should keep it small.
08:31No party, no.
08:34Just a ceremony with the family.
08:38Are you to turn down a party? You're right.
08:41I thought being back home might help you feel better.
08:53Back to where it happened.
08:57You think you're gonna find a person who did it?
09:03I mean, hopefully they will.
09:07But even if they don't, they ain't coming back.
09:13You're safe now.
09:16I...
09:29Listen...
09:31Are we really okay?
09:34Because you just...
09:36You've been a bit distant.
09:38Avani too.
09:41Well, actually...
09:43I knew it.
09:44She's upset about the party, isn't she?
09:47So cute.
09:48You know, I shouldn't have come down so hard on her.
09:50Stopping her from doing things.
09:52Now, what if she decides that this pregnancy isn't worth the hassle
09:56and that she'd rather be a normal teenager?
09:58She could still change her mind about having this baby, you know?
10:01Yeah, I know.
10:02And it won't be too long before we can relax about that too.
10:07You know, soon she won't be able to have any wobbles.
10:10What?
10:11What?
10:14What, as in she'll get to 24 weeks and then her termination is off the table?
10:17Is that what you're...
10:19No.
10:20No, Eve.
10:21That's not what I meant.
10:24What I mean is that, with every day that passes, we're getting closer to having our baby.
10:31Do you feel you're okay with your aunt because I said you couldn't bring his fence to my flat?
10:48No, it's your flat. You get to say who uses it, alright?
10:51Hiya!
10:52What, girls?
10:53Yeah, I'm all good.
10:55Well, there's always room for improvement. Maybe I could help.
10:58Oh, in your dreams.
10:59Oh, babe, every night. Every night.
11:02Hi, hi.
11:03You alright?
11:04I better get to work. I'll see you in a bit, coach.
11:06Bye.
11:07I haven't seen you in the last couple of days. Do you fancy getting out of dinner tonight?
11:12Yep.
11:13Don't we get the invite?
11:14Of course you do.
11:15Yeah.
11:16I'll let you know.
11:17Alright.
11:18It's a nice watch.
11:20Oh, my friend Okie brought from you.
11:23Okie? Do I know him?
11:25Dad, you need to talk to Elaine.
11:28Why?
11:29She thinks she's seeing someone.
11:31Well, I'm not seeing someone. It's just a bit of nothing.
11:34Okay, whatever. It's just not up to us to update her.
11:37I mean, she's okay with it, but she'll really give her a heads up.
11:40He's not doing anything wrong, though, is he? They ain't together anymore.
11:43Yeah, but her and Mum are asking us questions about it.
11:46What's your Mum got to do with it?
11:47She always thinks she's got something to do with it.
11:49Well, I'm not going to explain anything to your Mum, but I'll have a chat with Elaine.
11:53Yeah, I'll give her a heads up.
11:55Can you do it soon, please? Because I don't want any more questions.
11:57Alright. Talk to her.
12:00And I will see you, Megan.
12:02Bye.
12:04See ya.
12:06That's coming to her girlfriend.
12:09Nicola?
12:10No, she's not his girlfriend. They're just...casual.
12:14Harry's Mum.
12:16That's why you're so bothered.
12:19Because you don't want Dad and Nicola together messing up you and Harry.
12:24You should go out with him. He's my best friend.
12:27You should go out with my niece.
12:28Okay.
12:29In this family, we need to learn to stay out of each other's love lives.
12:33She always gets strappy when she likes someone.
12:38I'm sorry, I don't want to.
12:39I don't know.
12:40Take that out, eh.
12:42I'm sorry.
12:44Do I need help?
12:45Go on.
12:46Did you tell her?
12:47Does she hate me?
12:48I didn't tell her.
12:50Why not?
12:51Did you tell her?
13:00Did she hate me?
13:01I didn't tell her.
13:03Why not?
13:04Because you were right.
13:06She tried to sway you, and this has to be your decision.
13:10But what about what you were saying earlier about not keeping such a big seat?
13:13It's not your problem.
13:15I don't want to push trouble at you.
13:17You won't.
13:18You have to make the choice that's right for you.
13:20And I don't want anything to influence you.
13:25I can't stop thinking about what's going to happen.
13:32It must seem really overwhelming, but it will all be okay.
13:39And I'll be there.
13:44You all right?
13:46Yeah.
13:47Mm-hmm.
13:48Okay.
13:50Let's go.
14:02What's this about, George?
14:03Gina and Anna said that Cindy's been staring apart about me seeing something.
14:09I just wanted to give you a heads up.
14:11You won't get upset.
14:13Don't have to worry about me, darling.
14:15Of course I do.
14:16I mean, we're not together, but I still would never knowingly hurt you.
14:22Well, we were always going to move on, weren't we?
14:25Both of us.
14:26I suppose so.
14:27But for the record, I'm not seeing anyone.
14:31Well, not seriously.
14:33Well, like I said, it's nothing to do with me.
14:35So long as you're happy.
14:43Same goes for you, of course.
14:44How did you know I was seeing someone?
14:54You've got to tell, George.
14:57Mm-hmm.
14:58Mm-hmm.
15:00Daddy, daddy, cool.
15:03Every single time.
15:04You've got to be kidding me.
15:06Well, it's nice.
15:07It's dated, but it's nice.
15:11Thank you for speaking to me.
15:13It means a lot that you care enough to check on me.
15:18Always.
15:26Kajo?
15:27Wait in the way there.
15:34You all right?
15:34Yeah, yeah, Kajo just told me to meet him here.
15:37Yeah, he just messaged me, told me to come back.
15:42Kajo!
15:42Open up, mate.
15:47Hey.
15:50Well, what's all this, then?
15:52I don't know.
15:53You tell me, Kajo.
15:54You two like each other.
15:56Kajo, no.
15:57Kajo, what are you doing, mate?
15:59I made you a picnic.
16:01You go to the park.
16:02I fancy a free lunch.
16:10Yeah.
16:11Yeah, why not?
16:13See you later.
16:14Everything all right?
16:25I wanted Kajo to come to dinner with me, but he's blown me out.
16:29I'm actually a bit worried about him.
16:34I'm happy he's got his job and his friends, but something's not right.
16:38One of them's bought him this expensive watch that I called Hokey.
16:43Never heard of him.
16:44What have you talked to?
16:46He wants me to give him space.
16:48He wants to be independent, so I appreciate it.
16:51Oh, I could talk to him if you want.
16:54I've got to pop back to the Albert, but I could see him later, if you like.
16:58Would you?
17:00Might be easier coming from me.
17:03You know what?
17:05You're one in a million.
17:07Oh, this looks cosy.
17:09Elaine's giving me a hand with something.
17:11But you're so good with your hands.
17:13Do you want a drink?
17:15I'll let you know how it goes, Daddy.
17:17Cool.
17:29Oh, here you are.
17:30You plan on doing any work today?
17:31Don't worry, you'll get your money's worth out of me.
17:33On another note,
17:34mystery solved.
17:44Right, shall I shut you in?
17:55Are you okay?
17:57Yeah.
18:02Look, if you're not ready, then we can wait.
18:04No, I am ready.
18:06I want to do this, I do.
18:07It's just...
18:08I wish I'd done it last time.
18:12It would have been a lot easier.
18:13I know.
18:15Grandma stopped me, you know.
18:17If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be here.
18:19She thought she was doing the right thing.
18:21She would never want to hurt you.
18:25I hate this.
18:30Um...
18:30Shall we sit down?
18:32Look, we're not in any rush.
18:34Come on.
18:34Let's go.
18:43You know, when I was little,
18:45and there was something that I didn't want to do?
18:48My mum,
18:50she would tell me to just
18:51take it one step at a time.
18:55Do you want me to call your mum,
18:56because I think she might be more used than me?
18:58I want you to stay.
19:00Please.
19:02Okay.
19:09I'm a bit out of my depth, too.
19:12You don't get many unplanned lesbian pregnancies.
19:15Yeah, I suppose you guys are more sensible.
19:21Oh.
19:23I just got it.
19:25Hmm.
19:30How come you never had kids?
19:32Yeah, just, it's never an option for me.
19:36If you wanted one,
19:37do you think there would have been people that helped you?
19:40Um...
19:42Friends, maybe?
19:46Erica, my twin.
19:48Definitely.
19:50She died.
19:52And, um...
19:55I wasn't in a very good place back then.
19:58Because, well, when I came out,
19:59I lost my family, you know.
20:02Parents, grandparents, everyone,
20:04so I was on my own.
20:07Sort of takes away your foundations.
20:10I had nothing to build on.
20:13I'm not on my own, am I?
20:18Never.
20:27Shall I sign you in?
20:32Yeah.
20:33All right?
20:48Don't ask.
20:50I don't suppose you're any better.
20:51I saw the Warford community page.
20:54There's quite a lot of posts.
20:56Yep.
20:57Just thought I'd come in here to hide,
20:59away from the staring faces.
21:02What's the matter with you?
21:06Just about Avani and the baby.
21:08Is there anything Eve doesn't share with you?
21:11Well, I mean, think about it.
21:12I know what it's like to have a pregnant teenager on my hands.
21:16You can talk to me.
21:18I had a go at Avani about going to a party.
21:21She's been sulking the whole day with Eve.
21:24Well, that's just teenagers, isn't it?
21:26I'm just worried that, you know,
21:29she'll see all of her friends being normal teenagers
21:31and she'll realise she can't join in
21:34because of this baby.
21:36Well, you can't lock her up
21:39and that'll be worse.
21:41She'll feel like she's missing out.
21:43Exactly.
21:44I can't win.
21:45You know, either way,
21:47I'm worried that she'll decide it isn't worth it
21:50and she doesn't want to go through with the pregnancy.
21:53Stacey, I am terrified
21:56and I don't know how to handle this.
21:57If I put too much pressure on, I'll push her away.
22:01Or she'll go out drinking, or worse.
22:04Well, what about Ravi and Priya?
22:06Lavani doesn't want them to know.
22:09What?
22:10Well, that's convenient for you, isn't it?
22:12Don't you think they need to know?
22:14They will.
22:15When Lavani wants them to.
22:17And you're making Eve lie.
22:19You're making a lot of decisions
22:20for a lot of people, Sookie.
22:22It's all about timing.
22:24This is about the bigger picture.
22:25Oh, what, you think they're just going to accept it?
22:28They're not going to want to be there for Avani,
22:30help her make decisions.
22:31I mean, Priya might want to help with the baby.
22:34You think they'll want the baby?
22:36Well, it's about their baby.
22:39You can't just cut them out.
22:41I mean, there's decisions that you can't make.
22:43What are you going to tell everyone?
22:44What are you going to tell the family and the kid?
22:47They will want what is best for Avani.
22:51This is what Avani wants.
22:53Well, then that's what they'll have to accept, isn't it?
22:57But they can't be okay about something
22:59they know nothing about.
23:01Just get it out in the open.
23:03It'll all be easier.
23:05You know, you're right.
23:09Everyone needs to be on the same page.
23:11Well, well, well.
23:22Cindy, don't start.
23:24You all right, Cindy?
23:25Yes, I'm absolutely fine, Nicola.
23:27I reckon he's got them on a rotor.
23:29He's not with me right now, will he?
23:31He's only just broken up with Elaine.
23:32Shh!
23:33They can't hear us.
23:34No, I can't hear them.
23:35Not your usual type, George.
23:37Blonde, runs a bar.
23:41Any of that sound familiar?
23:43We just work together.
23:45Actually, we should go.
23:46Set up for tonight.
23:47Yeah.
23:50You want to keep that jealousy under wraps, Cindy?
23:52Because green really ain't your colour, babe.
23:56Just take a seat there, love, okay?
24:12Okay.
24:14Now, just because we're releasing you from observation
24:17doesn't mean you have to go yet.
24:19Please feel free to wait here until you're okay to leave.
24:21Any issues or concerns, just give us a ring or call 111
24:27and try to rest up as much as you can
24:30for the next 24 to 48 hours.
24:33Remember, you've had a surgical procedure.
24:36Take it easy, yeah?
24:43How are you feeling?
24:45I just, like, got these cramps.
24:48Oh, okay, um, we'll search out the hot water for you.
24:54Okay.
24:55Okay.
24:57Varnie, come here.
25:00Come here.
25:01I'm okay.
25:03I swear I'm okay.
25:04Mm-hmm.
25:06It's going to take a while to get back to normal.
25:08Yeah.
25:09Mm-hmm.
25:10I thought that I would feel happy,
25:14but I really don't.
25:15Look, I feel the same.
25:18Like, it's just a different secret that we have now.
25:21You don't have to keep any secrets.
25:25Okay?
25:26Okay.
25:27Shall we get you home?
25:28I just really want my mum.
25:31I do.
25:33I want to tell her everything.
25:35Yeah.
25:36Shall we get you home?
25:37Okay.
25:38Okay.
25:39So they don't know it's you?
25:44Nope.
25:45Hidden and completely untraceable, mate.
25:47And it's legal?
25:49Yeah, it's fair.
25:51How do you mean?
25:53Well, it makes things equal.
25:54Isn't that what everyone's banging on about?
25:56One inequality.
25:58Women can put whatever they want out there,
26:00but we get done for looking.
26:01This way, we can do what we want, just like they do.
26:03Is that your friend from Australia you're messaging?
26:12Nah.
26:12Nah, I met him online.
26:14He's a mate who gets it, you know.
26:17So, what do you talk about?
26:20Well, all kinds of stuff.
26:22Women, proper women want.
26:26Yeah, they're cool.
26:27And this way, we don't get shut down by people pretending to be woke.
26:30There's actually a lot of people that think like us, these guys.
26:34They just got the guts to say it.
26:36Yeah?
