00:30Hey
00:39You look terrible
00:44I told Vic about what happened yesterday
00:49Although I thought you might have had the decency to own up to it yourself
00:54I really didn't think it was so bad
00:55Then you really are losing it
01:00One of the reasons I didn't tell the police about you attacking me is because you promised
01:06to sort yourself out
01:07I've been trying
01:09How?
01:11By scaring little kids
01:12Look at yourself
01:15You've got no job
01:18No friends
01:19Victoria is this close to giving up on you
01:23Even Aaron thinks you're a waste of space
01:29Is that it?
01:30For you very nearly
01:33Just one phone call from me
01:40And you'll be back behind bars for a very long time
01:45So I suggest you get it together
01:49Starting with this
01:51It's a therapist in town
01:55You should give her a call
01:56Though if you ask me
02:00You're beyond help
02:01Oh hi
02:11I'm just calling about your
02:13In vitro DNA tests
02:15Yeah
02:16I just wondered
02:17How early in a pregnancy
02:19Can you get tested?
02:20And that's your absolute earliest
02:24Okay that's great
02:27Thank you so much for your help
02:28Bye
02:29I'm already hard at it
02:33Shouldn't you be taking it easy?
02:37Sorry
02:37Sorry I
02:38I shouldn't be fussing
02:41Got anything exciting planned for your day off?
02:45I was
02:47I was kind of hoping that maybe you and me could do something
02:52Oh babe you've no chance
02:53I've got to get to work
02:54I'll tell you what though
02:57Why don't you pop in
02:58Lunch
02:58And I'll treat you
03:00For being a wonderful and supportive husband
03:02Charity
03:06Love you
03:12I love you too
03:14Alright thanks anyway
03:23Rejected again
03:27I can't even get an interview
03:28Did they say why?
03:31Not enough experience
03:32I'm sorry but how am I supposed to get experience
03:34You don't give me a flipping job
03:35Listen
03:36I know that working for Ray was easy money
03:39But something else will come along
03:41I'm sure of it
03:42I mean there's still a few things I can apply for
03:45So
03:45You know maybe today's my lucky day
03:48I hope so
03:49Right I need to go to work
03:51Keep me posted on how you get on
03:53Okay
03:53Robert?
04:12Hey
04:12You alright?
04:21John told me what happened
04:26Do you want to talk about it?
04:29But this has gone too far now
04:31And I've been burying my head in the sand about your behaviour
04:34The violent, you're obsessive lies about John
04:37But I will not
04:38Let Harry feel threatened in his own home
04:41Do you understand?
04:43I don't feel safe leaving him alone with you anymore
04:46I don't know what happened
04:49I didn't think it was that bad
04:54One minute I'm fine and then the next minute I just
04:57I don't know what I'm doing
05:01Well John said he'll give you the details of a therapist
05:06Yeah, yeah he did
05:07Right, so have you called them?
05:09You know I can't afford it
05:10And I've already told you I will pay
05:12Just make an appointment
05:13Because I mean it this time
05:15Get it together or you're out
05:17Fancy another?
05:30Yeah, I don't care
05:30I'd love one
05:31What do you want?
05:34Well, call me a maverick
05:35But I was going to order a pint
05:37Alright?
05:42How was Moses this morning?
05:43He's great, thanks
05:44He's a lot better anyway
05:46This whole surrogacy thing
05:50It's not for anyone to get their head around, right?
05:53I mean
05:53If we're being really honest
05:56How do you feel about your wife
05:59Being up the duffer
06:00With another man's kid?
06:03If you had half a brain
06:05You'd know that that's not how surrogacy works
06:07Isn't it?
06:10Must be a little hazy on the whole female reproductive system
06:14Maybe you could tell me all about it
06:17Whoa!
06:18Oops!
06:21Someone's touchy
06:22Must be all those pregnancy hormones
06:25It's going to be a long nine months for you, buddy
06:27I'm going to have this over here
06:29Hmm
06:32What?
06:35Something I said?
06:39I was actually hoping I could be a bit more hands-on with things
06:41You know, meeting clients, event planning, that kind of thing
06:44Well, that's just one part of the job
06:46Well, I'm guessing I'll be more involved when my apprenticeship properly starts
06:50There's been a slight delay getting the paperwork for that
06:54I thought it was sorted
06:57Yeah, there's just the legal and insurance stuff I need to go through
07:00And I haven't had a chance
07:01But I promise you, I'm going to get it done
07:03Right, so until then I just have to sit around and do nothing
07:06No, you can keep an hour out for the fun
07:09And the place could do with a good clean
07:11I'm sorry
07:12I'll see you later
07:13Oi!
07:19Do me a favour
07:20Stop winding Mackenzie up
07:22You're not funny
07:22You want me to do you a favour?
07:26Please, Ross
07:26This is my family
07:28Fine
07:31I won't talk to him
07:32I won't even look at him
07:33Good
07:33But I am not dropping this
07:36Until I know for certain
07:37That it is not one of my little swimmers
07:38That you've got growing in there
07:39I'm just going to go after my meeting, babe, okay?
07:42Yeah, good luck with it
07:43Look
07:52I'm sorry that I was on the wind-up earlier
07:55Didn't mean to hurt your feelings or out
07:57Right
08:00Not that it's any of your business
08:02But I am actually okay with the whole
08:04Sorrogacy thing
08:05Yeah
08:06Yep
08:07Totally on board
08:09So why do you look like that, then?
08:11Because three years ago, today
08:13Charity lost a baby that she was carrying
08:15Our baby
08:17Oh
08:18And I'm the only one that's remembered that
08:20Look, I'm...
08:24I'm sure Charity's just got a lot on her mind right now
08:27Yeah
08:27Look, I'm just gonna get it
08:31After it happened
08:34She said that that was it
08:35She said she didn't want any more kids
08:39And that it was too risky
08:40And she all but shut the door in that part of her future
08:44But then
08:47Sarah comes along and suddenly it's kids akimbo
08:50You don't sound quite as on board as you think you do, mate
08:55I...I thought I was alright with it
08:58But maybe I'm not
09:02But I thought the apprenticeship was a dumb deal
09:06Yeah, so did I
09:08I mean, I'm sure it'll still happen
09:10It's just making me wonder if this is a sign
09:12Of what?
09:15I was thinking about what you said earlier
09:16About qualifications and prospects and stuff
09:21Yeah
09:21Maybe my dad's right
09:23I should redo my final year and get my GCSEs, maybe
09:26Serious?
09:29I just don't know if I'm ready for it, though
09:31You're the smartest person I know
09:33I reckon you'd absolutely smash it
09:34Yeah
09:36100%
09:36Maybe I can do it
09:39I mean, it's only one more year
09:40Yeah, it'd fly by, do you know what I mean?
09:44Guess that's it, then
09:45Going back to school
09:47Better go tell my dad
09:49Do you think you'll be happy?
09:52Happy?
09:53Probably have to scrape him off the ceiling
09:54See you later
10:19Hey!
10:49What are you doing?
10:57Robert, stop.
10:58Just stop.
11:00Robert, stop.
11:01Just stop.
11:02Get off of me.
11:03I'm not going anywhere until you calm down.
11:04Get down.
11:05Get off of me.
11:06Calm down.
11:07Get.
11:07Come here.
11:08Stop.
11:09Look at me.
11:10Look at me.
11:11Look at me.
11:12It's me.
11:13It's all right.
11:13You're okay.
11:14It's me.
11:16I'm here.
11:19I'm here.
11:19I'm not going anywhere.
11:21It's all right.
11:21It's okay.
11:22I'm not going anywhere.
11:24It's all right.
11:26It's all right.
11:28You're all right.
11:43You don't need to be here.
11:47Robert, it's me.
11:49I hate you seeing me like this.
11:53I want to help you.
11:54Why?
11:57Because I don't think you will.
12:00Don't you think I'm a waste of space?
12:03Where have you got that from?
12:05I mean, yeah, you've...
12:06You've not made it easy to like it.
12:08I'll give you that.
12:11The person really messed me up.
12:12More than I realised.
12:17Well, I'm going to get help.
12:19I am.
12:20I can't live like this.
12:23Well, good.
12:25This isn't you.
12:28I've made enemies of practically everyone.
12:29I wish I'd never come back here.
12:35You came back here because this is your home.
12:38No, I came back here because I wanted you.
12:42I've always wanted you.
12:44And I know that's not going to happen.
12:46Because everything's changed.
12:47I know it really would be best for everyone if I just went away.
12:56Never came back.
13:04Hello.
13:05Hello.
13:06Are you drunk?
13:09No.
13:10A little bit.
13:13How was I meeting?
13:14Oh, thrilling.
13:15Erm, can we talk?
13:20You'll have to be quick, babe.
13:21I promise Sarah I'm going to take a shopping.
13:24Right.
13:25OK.
13:26I just think that you and I, we, need to be more honest with each other.
13:35OK.
13:35Where's this coming from?
13:38A conversation I had with Ross.
13:41What did he say?
13:43Nothing much.
13:44Erm.
13:46Just made me realise how much I've been bottling it up.
13:50What are you on about?
13:52Charity, I've tried.
13:54Really, I, I have.
13:57It's just, erm...
13:58I, I'm still not OK with the whole surrogacy thing.
14:05I told you, I can't do it.
14:10I didn't think you were being serious.
14:11I was, I'm out.
14:12I can't do this anymore.
14:13I thought we were mates.
14:14Yeah, we are.
14:15I thought we were mates.
14:16Yeah, we are.
14:17I've helped you out.
14:18Loads.
14:19Loads.
14:20Loads.
14:21Loads.
14:22Loads.
14:23And you can't even do one thing for me.
14:27You've got your back on your feet.
14:28Yeah, I know.
14:29I know.
14:30I know, I know, I know.
14:31I know, I know, I know.
14:32It's like you're turning your back on me.
14:34And this is the thanks that I get.
14:47Look, you know how grateful I am.
14:49What?
14:51Listen.
14:54I'll do it.
14:58Just as long as April don't find out, yeah?
15:02I think we can manage that.
15:13I'm surprised to hear from you, if I'm honest, Debs.
15:18Yeah, I want to see you too, but I can't just drop everything and fly out to Australia.
15:22If you felt that bad, you'd have made it to Nate's funeral.
15:27Right, listen, I'm not promising anything, but I'll see what I can do.
15:31Bye. Love you.
15:34Sir Dingo, can I have a word?
15:35What about?
15:36There's been some movement into the investigation of Nate's murder.
15:40There's a few things you need to know.
15:43So, let's get you some help.
15:46And then...
15:48then you can decide where you want to be.
15:50There's nothing for me.
15:53I've got no friends, I've got no job.
15:56You don't even want to know me.
15:58I've had to push you away.
15:59Because we both know what'll happen if we get too close.
16:04Well, what are you saying?
16:05We've both been fighting feelings this whole time.
16:08I didn't say that.
16:15Right now,
16:16all that matters is getting you better.
16:19Why you still got people who care about you?
16:22Well, Vic doesn't want to know me.
16:23She loves you.
16:26She wants to help you.
16:28I want to help you.
16:29Even John does.
16:31And he knows all about PTSD from the army.
16:35He's probably got it from some of your cooking.
16:38Oh, wow.
16:40It's just like that, is it?
16:41I'm good at cooking.
16:44Yeah, right.
16:46I remember the great chocolate cake incident in 2018.
16:49What are you bringing that up for?
16:51It costs a lot to replace that oven.
16:53We're supposed to be talking about you here.
16:55Not...
16:56re-hashing my greatest hurts.
16:59Or missus.
17:00Thanks for being here.
17:09I'm sure you've got better things to do
17:11than sit around with your tragic ex.
17:15No, not really.
17:21I've missed you.
17:30Charity, what day is today?
17:44What's that got to do with anything?
17:46Everything.
17:47It's got everything to do with it.
17:48Because three years ago today,
17:50you had an ectopic pregnancy.
17:52And I took today off
17:54so we could spend it together.
17:56And you clearly forgot.
17:58Why didn't you say something?
18:01Because I thought it didn't matter as much to you.
18:04How can you say that to me?
18:05Because you flat out refused
18:07to have another baby with me.
18:09You didn't want one in the first place.
18:11But then you were willing to do it for Sarah.
18:13Oh, brilliant.
18:14So we're back to that, are we?
18:16Charity, I...
18:17I know that this is happening.
18:20Okay?
18:21And I will still support you in whatever way I can.
18:25I just...
18:26I couldn't lie to you any longer.
18:28Well, I wish you could.
18:30I wish you'd have kept your big mouth shut.
18:33Instead of waiting for the worst possible moment
18:35to speak out!
18:36Do you not see the problem there?
18:38You're not willing to listen to what I've got to say.
18:41You're just going to do what you want anyway.
18:42I'll tell you what I want.
18:43Do you know what I want?
18:44I want you to go and stay with Moira.
18:46What?
18:47Yeah.
18:48I can't be around you right now.
18:50Charity, we have to talk about this.
18:52What, so you can use the anniversary of us losing our baby
18:55to make me feel bad?
18:56No thanks.
18:57I want you out.
18:59So you'd better go and pack a bag.
19:01And get out.
19:01Yeah?
19:16Just coming to see how you got on with Robert.
19:18He wasn't in a good place when I left him earlier.
19:21I was well arsed with him.
19:22Well, I'm sure it needed to be said.
19:23So I thought I'd pop back, see how he's getting on.
19:26No, do you want me to come with?
19:27I mean, if he is in a bad place,
19:29I'd rather he lashed out at me than you.
19:31Yeah, I'd really appreciate that.
19:35Oh, Harry has been sick all over holiday clothes
19:38and he wants me to go and collect him.
19:40Well, look, you go.
19:42I'll check in on Robert.
19:43You sure?
19:44Yeah, yeah, yeah.
19:45Harry's way more important.
19:46Come on.
19:50John.
19:54Hey, you all right?
19:55Just had a visit from DC Cole.
19:59Oh, yeah?
20:00What did he want?
20:01He's not convinced this Owen guy killed Nate.
20:04What?
20:06But they've got a confession.
20:09Apparently some new evidence has come to light.
20:12Right.
20:13Wow, wow.
20:15I mean, it was definitely Owen,
20:17but I guess proving it must be harder.
20:20Yeah.
20:22Or, whoever did this is still out there.
20:24I wish we could stay like this forever.
20:42I wish things were so complicated.
20:47I should probably go.
20:49No, no, come on.
20:50Let's make this last a bit longer.
20:51So what does this mean for me and you?
20:58I've no idea.
21:01I don't really want to think about all that just yet.
21:05Look, I don't want to make things difficult for you.
21:08If you want me to leave the village, I will.
21:10No, don't be daft.
21:11I just think...
21:14I just don't want us to overthink it.
21:19You've still got to sort your head out and...
21:22I've got commitments.
21:29Let's just enjoy it for what it is, eh?
21:30God knows I've made you wait all this long.
21:42It's my turn to be patient.
21:43God bless you.
21:52So what does this mean?
21:58Yeah.
