01:02So, I heard you had a little spat with Jacob and made up.
01:08Chas might have filled me in.
01:10Cos she heard from Liam.
01:11She's only concerned.
01:12Right, well, she doesn't need to be.
01:13We've talked about it and he knows he was being an idiot.
01:16Oh, that was a bit harsh.
01:18Misguided, maybe?
01:19Well, no, I appreciate he was trying to put me first, but I would never expect him to turn down an opportunity like shadowing Liam at the dementia clinic. It's great for his career.
01:27Yeah, I know.
01:28And don't get me wrong, it is gonna be tricky trying to balance his studies with everything else, but we'll figure it out.
01:35But, I don't know, I just forget how grown up you are.
01:40You ready?
01:41Yeah.
01:42Oh, cool talk.
01:43What's the occasion?
01:44Oh, he's off to the hop with Johnny for a boys' day, aren't you?
01:47Yeah.
01:48Tell him what you're doing.
01:49Mountain biking and climbing.
01:50So he gets a nice day out and I get a guilt-free nap. Win-win.
01:54I can take him up if you like.
01:55Oh, would you?
01:56Yeah, we can grab a bacon butty on the way, you'll need the energy.
01:59Will Matt be back for my football game tomorrow?
02:02Er, I reckon so.
02:05When has he ever let you down?
02:07Right, come on you, let's get going if we're gonna have time to grab our butty.
02:10Have fun.
02:11Oh!
02:12Here, coat.
02:13Thanks.
02:20It's me again.
02:21Look, I've tried calling you, I've texted you and I'm getting nothing.
02:27I get why you're ignoring me but even Mattie said that you didn't show up for your shift.
02:31You were supposed to be back yesterday.
02:34Anyway, Moses really wants you at his game.
02:38Please, Mac, don't punish him because of me.
02:50Let's go.
02:58It's fine.
02:59Come on.
03:01First, remember, family Буд.
03:03And we'll see you soon.
03:04Even Captain, Timothy, before getting to, you know, it's a sister.
03:07All in pairs .
03:09Come back.
03:11Visit us.
03:13Australia-speaking people Julie government.
03:14Mac, it's me. Again. I've tried, called.
03:44Terrorising a kid? It's a special kind of evil, that one.
03:48I reckon Dylan's ears must be burning somewhere.
03:51Lola needs to watch out for the little thug. After everything April's been through, keeping that kind of company is a slippery slope.
03:58Oh, I'm sure he's got it under control.
04:00Can I have a hot chocolate to go when you're ready, please? Heavy on the chocolate.
04:04Yeah.
04:05Oh.
04:06What's Cal holding up?
04:07Yeah, he's putting on a brave front for me and Isaac. We're just gonna have to take it one day at a time.
04:13Or until Cian gets home from Australia and gets his hands on Dylan. He was being for blood when I told him.
04:18Oh, great. I'm sure that'll be very interesting then.
04:20And how about you? How are you doing?
04:22Oh, you know, aside from the morning sickness and the fact my husband's given me the silent treatment and has ended our marriage by text, yeah, I'm peachy.
04:29You still haven't heard from him?
04:30Well, I've tried calling him and sent messages and left voice notes and I know he's definitely switched his phone back on because I can see he's got them. He's just left me unread.
04:38Wish I could do that to Jimmy sometimes. Goodness knows I could use a break from him.
04:42I think there might be some of those tiny little marshmallows you like in the back. I'll just get them.
04:51You heard from him?
04:53No. Even when I told him that I was gonna have to split his shifts between Ross and the others.
04:58Please tell me you are joking. What? The work still has to be done. I can't afford to be waiting around for Mackenzie to decide if he wants to come home or not.
05:06Well, that's great for you, Moira. Now he's got even less reason to come rushing back. Meanwhile, I'm left with a child who's wondering where his so-called stepdad is right now. So thanks very much.
05:17I'll get this.
05:23Is that your van parked at the side of the road?
05:26Yeah, why are we blocking you or something?
05:28No, not at all. Madge. I'm your neighbour. That way.
05:32Aaron.
05:33I knew an Aaron once. He was a lovely guy. So helpful, so polite. Well, it's lovely to see the place being occupied again. I thought I'd come over and say hello. Are you buying the place?
05:48Er, no. My husband's spoken to the owner about it, but I'm just renting it for now. The owner? Are you sure about that?
05:57Yeah. Why?
05:59She died over a year ago. Granted, I didn't go to the funeral, but I know people who did.
06:06Sorry, she?
06:09Anyway, welcome to the neighbourhood. It's been lovely meeting you. Do come over for a cup of tea, won't you? You and your husband.
06:18She's still doing it. We should go somewhere else.
06:29No, just ignore her. I tried calling you last night anyway, and it just kept going to voicemail.
06:35Er, yeah, Ria's got a thing about phones on her job.
06:38You were on a job and you didn't tell me?
06:41Yeah, but last minute, just an overnight pick-up in Birmingham, right? Where you needed someone you can trust them. You know, the money weren't bad.
06:49Right, well, where did you sleep with it at least somewhere? Everything all right?
06:51Yeah, we're fine, thanks.
06:54How are your parents?
06:55What?
06:56They're so proud of you, you know. We're all proud of our kids, but you, you've always had a good head on your shoulders.
07:02I just know that you won't do anything to disappoint them.
07:06Thanks.
07:07It's none of my business, I know, but your dad would be disappointed with your present choice of company.
07:13Yeah.
07:14Yeah, you're right. It is none of your business, but seeing as you're so curious, Dad knows about Dylan and he doesn't have a problem with himself.
07:23Oh. Well, good luck to you then. You're gonna need it.
07:32Reckon she's gonna tell Chas we're together?
07:34No, Chas doesn't dictate who I hang out with, anyway, about this job.
07:38Listen, it's sweet that you're worried about me, but you know that this is the only way to get the money I need to get my own place.
07:45Yeah.
07:46Well, you wouldn't have to if it wasn't for Paddy kicking you out.
07:50It's all gonna be fine, all right? Promise.
08:00Heyo.
08:03I make a mean bonfire. Just say the word.
08:05What do you want, Ross?
08:06Permission to hang around my Moses.
08:09And I promise to be on my best behaviour and I won't mention the paternity test.
08:13You just did that now, didn't you?
08:15I just want to spend some time with my lad.
08:18Set a good example for our impressionable boy.
08:20Fine, whatever.
08:23Was there anything else?
08:25Never been one to push me luck.
08:27Tell Moses I'll swim by later, yeah?
08:29Yeah.
08:31Listen, Ross.
08:33You better show up.
08:34You're his dad, so...
08:37Don't disappoint him.
08:44John, where are ya?
08:46You just...
08:49You just call me back when you get this.
08:50Uh, Robert said you were in.
09:05Thought I'd just stop by and say a quick hello.
09:07Well, I was just about to pop the kettle on. Join me.
09:08I don't want to take up any of your time. You probably have better things to do.
09:22Celia, if this partnership is gonna work, then we need to put everything behind us. All that stuff with Joe and Kim. It's in the past now.
09:32Then tea sounds lovely, thank you.
09:35How are the guys getting along?
09:50Surprisingly well.
09:51Let me make myself useful. Where do you keep your vases?
09:54Oh, no, no, no, no. These are for Holly. My daughter. She passed on a few years ago.
10:06Um, I'm sorry. I had no idea.
10:09No, no, no. It's fine.
10:11Um, she was a brilliant girl. She was so beautiful and smart.
10:19How did she, if you don't mind me asking?
10:23Um, it was drugs.
10:26I tried to help her get off the damn stuff.
10:30And she did it. She was, she was clean for a while.
10:34And then it all went wrong again and she had an overdose.
10:39And I was the one who found her.
10:42Oh, Moira.
10:44You know, um, I haven't been able to get her off my mind in the last couple of days.
10:48Yes.
10:50Finding out who Dylan really was and knowing why he broke in, looking for drugs.
10:58I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to pry.
11:01There was a time I couldn't imagine life beyond losing Holly.
11:06But my other kids, Cain, they gave me purpose.
11:11And my life now is all about protecting them and giving them a legacy that they can be proud of.
11:16I am so sorry. I jeopardised that.
11:20I promise you, Moira, I will do everything I can to help you.
11:46You've been lying to me again.
11:48You've been lying to me again.
12:18This is you, innit? This is your room. Your house.
12:32I promise. I promise. I didn't lie. I got as a cottage but it fell through last minute
12:48nothing else was available except... We've been here for over a week.
12:52Yeah. Why have you not said anything till now?
12:55Because I couldn't. If I told you I would have had to explain why I've never mentioned it
13:06before and why I don't like coming back here. My mum died in this house. I didn't know how
13:26coming back would affect me and I didn't want you to be worried. I tried everything. Couldn't
13:33save her from the cancer or even ease her suffering. Watched her take her last breath.
13:46It wasn't your fault. I swear. I wasn't trying to keep you in the dark. I just wasn't ready
13:52to talk about her. I don't understand. When I lost my gran to cancer, my mum got diagnosed
14:18with it and... I was so scared. And helpless. Thank you for telling me. And your mum would
14:32have been proud of how you turned out. I'm sure of that. What if we stayed? I've always loved
14:40it here. So many... good memories. To see my mum suffer, not being able to help it tainted
14:49them for me. But having you here... I don't feel like that anymore. You were keen on it yesterday.
14:59I'm just asking you to give it a chance. Okay, yeah. Why not? Let's give it a go.
15:18That was lovely, thank you. But I'm gonna go back to my paperwork and let you get those
15:24flowers to Holly. Oh, well, there's plenty of time for that. I feel that you know more
15:29about me than I do about you. You're not missing anything, I promise.
15:33Yeah, but I like knowing about my friends. So, do you have any kids? Is there a husband
15:39in the picture? A son. Who I barely get to see. Which is appropriate. He's a grown man
15:49with his own life. He shouldn't have to worry about me. My husband died a few years ago.
15:56Oh, Celia, I'm so sorry. I didn't realise. They say it's supposed to get easier with time,
16:01but... The pain never really leaves. It dims a little and then pops up when you least expect
16:09it. I just miss him. I miss him terribly. Right. I really am going. Celia, you know that
16:25you're not on your own, right? I'm beginning to see that.
16:30one, two, three, four. Yes! You win. No! Eat it. Eat it.
16:46Timer. That is disgusting. You're just a sour loser. A sour loser? I see what you did.
16:57No. No!
17:02Mum, come play. Oh, no, you're alright, darling. I've got some stuff to do. Huh? Still collecting
17:08material for that bonfire? What bonfire? No bonfire. It's just your dad goofing around
17:12because that's what your dad likes to do, isn't it? No, please, come play. No! I'm
17:16way past the age of folding to peer pressure. Well, that's a clever way of saying you're afraid
17:20of losing, but whatever. Okay. I'll join you for one. FYI, I've never lost a game in my life.
17:26Don't intend to start now. What are we playing? Rock, paper, scissors. No, but with a twist.
17:31What was a twist? It's probably best if we just show you. Okay. On four. One, two, three, four.
17:41Ha! A reward for the winner. Oh, okay. Thank you.
17:46Come on!
17:50That wasn't even two seconds. What is that? It's a sour twist.
17:57Johnny told me. You tricked me! You should have seen your face.
18:01Let's play again, me and you. Mate, I would love to, but I think your mum is keen to get your tea on the go.
18:08Aw! Please, can you stay?
18:13Fine! Yes! You can stay.
18:16You sure it's all right when we've been in here? What if your boss swings by?
18:23Not at closing time.
18:25I don't know how you village folk operate.
18:28I'm kidding. I just don't know when you're getting in trouble because of me.
18:33Right. What's the plan for tonight? Where are you staying?
18:47Er, I'll figure it out. You'll figure it out?
18:51It's cute. I sometimes forget that I'm not new to this stuff, all right? I'll be fine.
18:55Well, I won't.
18:58Look, come to mine. You can sleep in my room.
19:01Don't think your dad and Ronan would be right happy.
19:04And we'll do it now.
19:06Come on. Do it for me.
19:09I'll stress less knowing that you're somewhere safe, at least for tonight.
19:17You were really good with him tonight.
19:19Hmm. You weren't so bad yourself, you know.
19:22Ooh, thank you.
19:24Hey, we could play another game.
19:26Up the stakes.
19:28Make it a bit more interesting.
19:29Don't push your luck.
19:31Well, at least I made you small.
19:34Do you know what? You did.
19:36Tonight was a welcome break from me worrying about the state of my marriage.
19:42Well, glad to be of service.
19:45Whoa!
19:46What the hell?
19:47What? You didn't want me to?
19:49Ross, when I said you could stay for dinner, I wasn't suggesting I was the pudding.
19:53What?
19:54Do you know, that is so typical of you.
19:55Seeing how far you can push things.
19:57Oh, you can't blame a guy for trying.
19:58Ross, what happened between us?
20:00It was a stupid, stupid mistake.
20:02It's never gonna happen again.
20:03I have a husband.
20:04Well, I didn't stop you last time.
20:05Oh, just get out.
20:07Look, I didn't...I didn't mean that...
20:08You know, he might not be here right now, but make no mistake, he's coming back, Ross!
20:13Tsk.
20:14Tsk.
20:15Tsk.
20:16Tsk.
20:20Tsk.
20:21Tsk.
20:22I don't know.
20:52I don't know.
21:22I don't know.
21:52I don't know.
