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 going to be tricky trying to balance his studies with everything else but we'll figure it out.
01:36But 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.
01:50Mm-hmm.
01:51So he gets a nice day out and I get a guilt free nap. Win-win.
01:54I can take him off 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?
02:02Err, 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, go.
02:13Hi.
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.
02:51Yard.
02:57Don't kill each other because of me.
03:00You may be indoors, so there's already.
03:02The first is a story I told you about.
03:03I'm excited to do nothing.
03:04I'm ölöken.
03:05I actually lost a photo.
03:15So I have no clue Bayари for it.
03:17Is there any more Dun touched anything to me?
03:19Mac, it's me. Again. I've tried, called.
03:45Terrorising a kid? It's a special kind of evil, that one.
03:49I reckon Dylan's ears must be burning somewhere.
03:52Well, I need to watch out for the little thug. After everything April's been through, keeping
03:57that kind of company, it's a slippery slope.
03:59Oh, I'm sure he's got it under control.
04:01Can I have a hot chocolate to go when you're ready, please? Heavy on the chocolate.
04:05Yeah.
04:06Oh.
04:07How's Carl holding up?
04:08Yeah. He's putting on a brave front for me and Isaac. We're just gonna have to take it
04:13one day at a time. Or until Cain gets home from Australia and gets his hands on Dylan. He
04:17was being for blood when I told him.
04:19Oh, great. I'm sure that'll be very interesting then.
04:21And how about you? How are you doing?
04:23Oh, you know, aside from the morning sickness and the fact my husband's given me the silent
04:28treatment and has ended our marriage by text, yeah, I'm peachy.
04:30You still haven't heard from him?
04:31Well, I've tried calling him and sent messages and left voice notes and I know he's definitely
04:36switched his phone back on because I can see he's got them. He's just left me unread.
04:39Wish I could do that to Jimmy sometimes. Goodness knows I could use a break from him.
04:43Oh, I think there might be some of those tiny little marshmallows you like in the back. I'll
04:50just get them.
04:52You heard from him?
04:54No, even when I told him that I was gonna have to split his shifts between Ross and
04:58the others.
04:59Please tell me you are joking.
05:01What? The work still has to be done. I can't afford to be waiting around for Mackenzie
05:05to decide if he wants to come home or not.
05:07Oh, that's great for you, Moira.
05:09Now he's got even less reason to come rushing back.
05:11Meanwhile, I'm left with a child who's wondering where his so-called stepdad is right now.
05:16So thanks very much.
05:20I'll get this.
05:24Is that your van parked at the side of the road?
05:27Yeah, why are we blocking you or something?
05:29No, not at all. Madge.
05:31I'm your neighbour. That way.
05:33Aaron.
05:35I knew an Aaron once.
05:37He was a lovely guy.
05:39So helpful, so polite.
05:43Well, it's lovely to see the place being occupied again.
05:46I thought I'd come over and say hello.
05:48Are you buying the place?
05:50Er, no.
05:51My husband's spoken to the owner about it, but I'm just renting it for now.
05:54The owner?
05:56Are you sure about that?
05:58Yeah. Why?
06:00She died over a year ago.
06:02Granted, I didn't go to the funeral, but I know people who did.
06:06Sorry?
06:07She?
06:08Anyway, welcome to the neighbourhood. It's been lovely meeting you.
06:13Do come over for a cup of tea, won't you?
06:16You and your husband.
06:18She's still doing it. We should go somewhere else.
06:30No, just ignore her.
06:32I tried calling you last night anyway, and it just kept going to voicemail.
06:36Er, yeah, Ray's got a thing about phones on her job.
06:39You were on her job and you didn't tell me?
06:41Yeah, but last minute, just an overnight pickup in Birmingham, all right?
06:46Ray needed someone you can trust and, you know, the money won't bad.
06:49Right, well, where did you sleep? Was it at least somewhere?
06:51Everything all right?
06:52Yeah, we're fine, thanks.
06:54How are your parents?
06:56What?
06:57They're so proud of you, you know.
06:59We're all proud of our kids, but you, you've always had a good head on your shoulders.
07:03I just know that you won't do anything to disappoint them.
07:06Thanks.
07:08It's none of my business, I know, but your dad would be disappointed with your present choice of company.
07:13Yeah.
07:15Yeah, you're right.
07:17Er, it is none of your business.
07:19But seeing as you're so curious, Dad knows about Dylan and he doesn't have a problem with himself.
07:23Oh.
07:24Well, good luck to you then.
07:26You'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.
07:39Listen, 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.
07:46Yeah.
07:47Well, you wouldn't have to if it wasn't for Paddy kicking you out.
07:50It's all gonna be fine, all right?
07:52Promise.
08:01Heyo.
08:04I make a mean bonfire.
08:05Just say the word.
08:06What do you want, Ross?
08:08Permission to hang around with Moses.
08:10And I promise to be on my best behaviour and I won't mention the paternity test.
08:14You just did that now, didn't you?
08:16I just wanna spend some time with my lad.
08:18Set a good example for our impressionable boy.
08:21Fine, whatever.
08:24Was there anything else?
08:26Never been one to push me luck.
08:28Tell Moses I'll swim by later, yeah?
08:30Yeah.
08:32Listen, Ross.
08:34You better show up.
08:36You're his dad, so...
08:37Don't disappoint him.
08:44John, where are ya?
08:47It's...
08:48Can you just call me back when you get this?
08:50Can you just call me back when you get this?
08:51Uh, Robert said you were in.
08:52Thought I'd just stop by, say a quick hello.
08:53Well, I was just about to pop the kettle on. Join me.
08:57Uh, Robert said you were in.
09:16Thought I'd just stop by and say a quick hello.
09:19Well, I was just about to pop the kettle on.
09:21Join me.
09:22I don't want to take up any of your time.
09:24You probably have better things to do.
09:25Celia, if this partnership is going to work,
09:28then we need to put everything behind us.
09:31All that stuff with Joe and Kim, it's in the past now.
09:35Then tea sounds lovely, thank you.
09:48How are the guys getting along?
09:51Surprisingly well.
09:55Let me make myself useful.
09:58Where do you keep your vases?
09:59Oh, no, no, no, no.
10:00These are for Holly, um, my daughter.
10:05She passed on a few years ago.
10:08Um, I'm sorry, I had no idea.
10:10No, no, no, no, it's fine.
10:12Um, she was a brilliant girl.
10:15She was so beautiful and smart.
10:21How did she, if you don't mind me asking?
10:24Um, it was drugs.
10:26I tried to help her get off the damn stuff.
10:31And she did it.
10:32She was, she was clean for a while.
10:35And then it all went wrong again and she had an overdose.
10:40And I was the one who found her.
10:43Oh, Moira.
10:44You know, um, I haven't been able to get her off my mind in the last couple of days.
10:49I was finding out who Dylan really was and knowing why he broke in looking for drugs.
10:57I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to pry.
11:02There was a time I couldn't imagine life beyond losing Holly.
11:06But my other kids, Cain, they gave me purpose.
11:12And my life now is all about protecting them and giving them a legacy that they can be proud of.
11:18I am so sorry, I jeopardised that.
11:21I promise you, Moira, I will do everything I can to help you.
11:27I am so sorry.
11:57you've been lying to me again
12:14this is you
12:19innit
12:20this is your room
12:27your house
12:40I promise I promise I didn't lie I got as a cottage but it fell through last minute nothing else
12:50was available except we've been here for over a week yeah why have you not said anything
12:55until now because I couldn't
13:02if I told you I would have had to explain why I've never mentioned it before and why I don't
13:09like coming back here
13:20my mum died in this house
13:26I didn't know how coming back would affect me and I didn't want you to be worried
13:32I tried everything
13:34couldn't save her from the cancer or even ease her suffering
13:39what should I take a last breath
13:46it wasn't your fault
13:48I swear
13:49I wasn't trying to keep you in the dark
13:51I just wasn't ready to talk about her
13:54I don't understand
14:08when I lost my gran to cancer
14:15my mum got diagnosed with it and
14:22I was so scared
14:25and helpless

14:44good memories
