00:30Craving sorted. My kid wants blueberries. It gets blueberries. Oh, don't tell me you've
00:47gone off them already. Do you know what, babe? I'm just not feeling very hungry. Were you
00:52all right? Yeah. I think I'm just a bit tired, you know. Well, have you checked your blood
00:57pressure today? Sarah, I'm fine. I'm really sorry. I've got to go. Where? Oh, pub emergency.
01:04Charles needs me over there pronto. Well, hang on, wait. Look, I could not help opening
01:08it, but it's the appointment for our 12-week scan. Oh, babe, that's amazing. But I've really
01:14got to go. No, go, go. I just wanted to cheer you up before your day goes to hell. Good
01:18luck. With what? The pub crisis. Oh, yeah, fine. Yeah, it'll get sorted. See you later.
01:24See you. Happy birthday, Carl. New phone? Yeah, birthday present. I could do with a hand
01:35here. Thanks, Carl. Grab a bag. Any bag. See? He's lost to us. Genius idea buying him a new
01:41phone. It was your idea. Well, that ear piercing wasn't, and you can talk to the head teacher
01:46when she drags us into her office over it. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What's happening?
01:51Jimmy flooded our house, falling asleep whilst running a midnight bath. Yeah, what are these
01:56bags? Well, we're going to need to stay here for a bit while ours dries out and they fix
01:59the electrics. I'm sorry. There's no room at the inn. But it's my inn. Which is fully booked
02:05for weeks. Yay, go us. Right, but there's room for your granddaughter. April's staying in Kathy's
02:11room. Just cancel a couple of bookings. No. We're going to want all the spare cash we
02:16can get to fix the repairs. We need a plan B. Oh, hi, Nicola. You all right? What's happened?
02:23Should we... Is it... Sorry. Go ahead. No, it's just stupid small talk. There's no talk. You're
02:33not too small or stupid for these little ears. Is it better then? Between us? No. The breakfast.
02:44Is it better than the hide? Didn't know if we needed to up our menu game. Come on then.
02:49You owe me the truth. I didn't mean... OK, no. Here's the truth. The food here, it's, erm...
03:02It's worth the money. What, my hide isn't. It's outrageous. It's the part where I storm out.
03:09Only, I actually do need to go because I've got work, so... See you later.
03:26I want to offer myself up. Sorry? As a safe space if you ever wanted to chat. Do you...
03:34Does everyone know? Oh, no, no. Just me. Nicola's been on the phone non-stop to Gabby
03:40and Laurel, so it was hard not to get the gist of it. Your court case. Your confusion.
03:47Her cheating. Well, well, that is mortifying at all, is it?
03:51Well, erm, my lips are safely sealed. I'm here if you ever need, like, a friendly safe ear.
03:58Yeah, of someone who's been through, er, not similar, but similar adjacent stuff.
04:04Right. OK, well, I've got a, er, scrap delivery.
04:11But, I mean, I could come back about lunchtime.
04:15Well, me and my friendly ears will still be here.
04:19Bye-bye. See you.
04:29Oh, she lives. I've left you a million messages. When do you get here?
04:36Ah. Well, this can't be good. You helping out. You usually leave all the menial tasks to your minions.
04:43Well, there's been an emergency. What? Where? Here.
04:47Obviously there hasn't, but that's what I told Sarah in case she asks, OK?
04:50I said you needed help over here, so...
04:52Right, so I'm your excuse to avoid her.
04:56I take it that your confession didn't go down too well?
04:59It didn't go down at all, OK?
05:02I didn't get chance. It just wasn't the right moment to tell them.
05:06And there never will be, Charity. We've been through this.
05:10Burying your head won't make it go away.
05:12No. But a termination will.
05:18I'm gonna end the pregnancy and I've got an appointment in a few hours.
05:23Please, will you come with me?
05:30She's been a dream. She's been helping turn the rooms.
05:35Do you think we're monsters for letting her leave?
05:37I think it's probably one of the hardest things you've ever had to do.
05:39Thanks again for taking her in.
05:42Makes it so much easier knowing she's with you.
05:45It's bonus quality time with my favourite granddaughter. Win-win.
05:48Hi.
05:50James Judy Dent, she's sparkling.
05:53Morning, love.
05:54Is it Leo?
05:56Is it Leo what?
05:57What?
05:58Is he OK? Has something else happened? Is that why you're here?
06:00No, no, no. I came to see how you are.
06:03Oh.
06:05Settling in OK?
06:07Leo's good. He's recovering well. He misses you.
06:09And we all do.
06:10Come and visit him if you like.
06:11I don't think me coming to visit any time soon is a good idea.
06:15But I'm...
06:16I'm gonna go and get started on Jane MacDonald.
06:19Well, don't let him overwork you.
06:20Don't let him overwork you.
06:26It's only been a day.
06:28Already feels like everything's changed.
06:30And it'll change back again.
06:32But for now she's safe.
06:34She's close.
06:36And I've scored myself some exceptional free labour.
06:38Hmm.
06:43Chas, this is such a mess.
06:46And if there's no baby then we can all just go back to living our lives.
06:50Oh, yeah, because it's that easy, isn't it?
06:52Especially for Sarah.
06:53Did I say this was easy? Any of it?
06:55Chas, I have lost control, OK?
06:58And I'm hurtling towards the cliff edge right now.
07:00And no matter which way I turn, I'm gonna crash anyway.
07:02Well, you could try pumping your brakes and face whatever you're speeding from.
07:05No! I can't!
07:06I can't!
07:07You are turning an already awful lie into a bigger one.
07:12Well, thanks for having my back.
07:14I do!
07:15Which is why I'm giving you the blunt truth.
07:18Charity, you are spiralling.
07:20Just take a minute and think.
07:22I don't have a minute, Chas!
07:24So this is happening and...
07:27Do you know what? I was wrong coming here thinking you'd support me through this.
07:31Well, I'm not gonna blindly cheer you on over a snap decision about something so huge.
07:37You can forget coming with me. I don't want you anywhere near me. You're off the hook.
07:41Charity!
07:45Clean bill of health.
07:47You've bred some quality rams this year, Moira.
07:49Oh, well, that is music to my ears.
07:51Hey, erm, you didn't mean to come here today. And I didn't mean to keep you from Leo.
07:59My mum is spoiling him rotten. Anyway, I would only upset him with all my fussing, so...
08:04How did he even get hold of the pills? I mean, were they in the playground or the bus or...?
08:10Sorry. Just tell me to keep my nose out of your business.
08:14No, no, no. It's not that, Moira. I just don't want to offload on you. Not about this. You went through much worse with Holly.
08:19Runa, you're my mate. You can tell me.
08:24Oh, er, bad time.
08:26Oh, sorry, Sylvia.
08:27No, it's fine. It's fine. It's not like it's a secret, is it?
08:31Erm...
08:33My stepdaughter brought the pills home.
08:36They were April's?
08:38Ecstasy.
08:40I heard. Er, rather, I overheard.
08:44Bob and Marlon were in the cafe yesterday. They were...
08:48They were a bit worked up about it all.
08:50Well, then you probably also heard that my son found the pills and thought they were sweet.
08:54Is he all right?
08:56It was terrifying.
08:57I bet.
08:58Yep. He's shaken up, but, you know, safely back at home now.
09:00Unlike my daughter, stepdaughter. She's, erm...
09:04She's moved out for a bit.
09:08That must be tough for all of you. So, where's she gone?
09:11Oh, just to Bob's. She offered to go, spur of the moment.
09:14I don't think she thought we'd say yes, but I did.
09:17I was angry.
09:19Scared about Ivy and Leo being near April.
09:21I don't trust her after something like this, and I needed space, but...
09:25Oh, did I go too far?
09:27I love her to bits, but I don't recognise her since she came back home.
09:33She's not the same since living on the streets, and you must have been unbearable and then losing the baby.
09:40Oh, God. God.
09:42She's going to think that we've abandoned her, isn't she?
09:45Should I have told her to stay?
09:46Hon, you are not the first parent to wrestle with this. It's not easy. For any of us.
09:56There we go.
09:57Thank you. Sorry.
09:58So, you stood up in court. That must have been awful.
10:02I mean, doing it in front of Gabby, that was the most terrifying bit.
10:06You made the world a bit safer.
10:08But I mainly testified, stopping from targeting me.
10:11Yeah, and risked your marriage in the process of it.
10:14How was that, by the way?
10:16Because earlier on, I'm not going to lie, it was painful to watch, but, you know, you seemed on the same page-ish.
10:22We've both made mistakes, and we both want it to work, so we'll do the work.
10:29And, um, what about those feelings you tried to explore with Mike before you turned into a wrecking ball?
10:34What happened to them?
10:36I... Well, I mean, you know, they're still there.
10:41And I still have questions.
10:42And I still have questions.
11:13My lad was a bit of a wild card in his day.
11:17Every time he messed up, which was a lot, I would beg him to come home.
11:23That's exactly what I want to do.
11:25Now I've slept on it, every part of me is screaming to bring her back home.
11:29Yeah, I mean, if it were Holly, I'd be dragging her back home just so I could keep an eye on her.
11:34You both strike me as brilliant mums, truly.
11:38But, for my lad, it just made things worse.
11:42I realised far too late, I was just enabling him.
11:47It's so tricky to get the balance right.
11:50And for you, it's not just April you have to worry about, it's your younger ones too.
11:55Yeah, Leo could have died.
11:58April wouldn't be so careless again, though, would she?
12:00I don't know.
12:02I just want her close, so I can keep her safe.
12:05As you should.
12:07But for now, she is safe.
12:09She's down the road.
12:11She's with family.
12:13I'm not sure forcing things would help anyone.
12:17Maybe you just need to give her some space for now.
12:21For her sake, as much as yours.
12:23Oh, you're home. Crisis averted.
12:27What?
12:28At the pub.
12:30Oh, yeah. All sorted.
12:34What you got there?
12:36Oh, just a little memory box.
12:39For the baby.
12:41Oh, yeah.
12:43No, I know that. I'm thinking nothing to put in it yet.
12:45Oh, strongly disagree.
12:47We've got the baby scan.
12:50Oh, of course.
12:52And the 12-week appointment scan for next month.
12:56And what's that left in there?
12:58Just this little letter that me and Jacob wrote for the baby.
13:03Saying how we can't wait to meet them and that our hearts couldn't be fuller.
13:06Except they will be once you finally arrive.
13:09Oh, you think it's naff, don't you?
13:11But do you know what? I don't care.
13:13Because my child will know that they are loved.
13:15And they'll never doubt that they're the centre of our universe.
13:18Look, why don't you try writing your own?
13:21And I won't be looking over your shoulder either, because I'm due back at the garage.
13:24You know, just give it a go, see what comes out.
13:26You might surprise yourself.
13:28See you later.
13:29Cappy's my world. I love her a bit and I fancy her. I loved Liv to bits and I fancied her.
13:47You do know you can fancy other people when you're in a relationship.
13:52Can you?
13:53I don't make the rules, but for me it's what you do with it that matters.
13:57Yeah, but I can't do anything with it. I don't want to.
14:00I think.
14:02I suppose if I don't try, I won't know, will I?
14:07And does it matter, you know, if you're with your forever person?
14:11I think only you can answer that.
14:13Gabby said that if I'd have told her before we got married that she'd have given me room to explore things.
14:21And now?
14:23Non-starter.
14:25Is that what you want?
14:28I want Gabby. I can't risk the marriage again. I won't do it.
14:33So have you got any insights or answers?
14:37No answers?
14:39No answers. I'm not sure if this is an insight, but you know, right now, to you, I feel like it's all about Gabby.
14:46Which it is.
14:47Yeah, and that's great that you know that. That's your one certainty, but at some point that might change and you need to be honest with yourself about that.
14:54Vinny, these feelings are meant to be fun, positive, exciting for you.
15:01I'm sorry that hasn't been your experience and you know you got shafted by a guy who used them against you.
15:05I should take that.
15:09I should take that.
15:13Come here.
15:14I'm here for you.
15:24Angel's shifting Dotty's things in with you so she and I can both sit in that room.
15:30Why are you making up the sofa?
15:32Well, it's that other flooring.
15:34Hey, birthday boy, get off your phone and go and help your brother unpack in Arthur's room.
15:39He's been texting Clemmie.
15:41Oh, young love.
15:42His first girlfriend.
15:44Should we invite her over for tea?
15:46No, no, please, no.
15:48Look, there's a lot of people in a little house and I don't know how I'm going to make it work for all of you.
15:54All?
15:55You mean Dad?
15:57Oh, there's Rodney as well, isn't there?
15:58No, no, no, no. He's gone to stay with a mate in Great Yarmouth.
16:00See? Not so many after all.
16:03Are you going to be all right on this sofa? It's not very comfy, Jimmy.
16:07He'll take what he's given and be grateful since he's the one who made us all homeless.
16:10I did not!
16:12Well, at least I won't have to listen to him pretending to be a tractor in my ear for a few weeks.
16:18Weeks?
16:19Yeah, listen, thanks so much for putting us up. You're a lifesaver.
16:26Gabby, wait.
16:27I'm just on my break. I'll get something for our tea.
16:29Gabby, please. Just stop. Stop. Please.
16:33Right? It was only a chat with Lewis. That's it. Nothing more.
16:36I didn't say there was.
16:37Well, you thought it. That's why you stormed out.
16:40Sorry.
16:42Look, I swear. It was a chat and a hug. You can trust me.
16:45Yeah, and I do trust you. Really, I do. It's just... I just got in my head for a minute.
16:52I know all about that. But I don't want you thinking the worst every time I'm talking to a guy.
16:57Yeah, neither do I. I mean, who am I to say anything anyway? I'm the one that cheated.
17:02It just took me by surprise, that's all.
17:04Right, well, there's going to be knocks along the way, ain't there?
17:07But we're still good if we keep talking, right?
17:10Right.
17:20Hey, you? You okay?
17:23Oh, no, I've come here.
17:31I didn't go.
17:34Yeah, barely got ten yards down the road before turning back.
17:40Can't do it, Chas.
17:42And you don't have to.
17:44I'm just so glad you've taken a step back, giving yourself a chance to think.
17:48You know, Sarah's life is so full of hope and joy and love for this baby.
17:58This is the only opportunity she's going to get, to have a kid like this.
18:03And let's face it, her life's going to be shorter than most,
18:07and she's already been through so much pain, and it's just so unfair.
18:11I know she has.
18:13And I know it's not going to be easy.
18:16But this still means that you're going to have to face the truth.
18:22I can come with you, you know, when you tell them.
18:27Tell them what?
18:29Everything.
18:31I presume you're going back to the original plan and coming clean.
18:35No, Chas.
18:37No way, I can't do that.
18:39Careful, Cinderella, you'll put me out of a job.
18:41He's been hovering there like that since I came out.
18:45He's probably hoping that you'll call him over for a chat.
18:50Right, you're off the clock. So are you free to go and join them? Do you feel like it?
18:55Nice little palace you've got yourself here.
19:10Er, it's not mine, it's my grandad's.
19:12Ah, his casa, su casa. I owe you an apology.
19:18I should never have laid a hand on you, and I'm sorry.
19:23Truly.
19:25You should be very proud of yourself.
19:27Moving out, standing on your own two feet.
19:30Especially given...
19:32Well, I, er...
19:35I had the chance to get to know your step-mom today.
19:39What, Rhona? You spoke to her?
19:41A lot.
19:43What did she say?
19:45She's just worried about you.
19:47Really? She said that?
19:49Yes.
19:52What else did she say?
19:56That you're different.
19:59Okay, and?
20:01And troubled.
20:03She doesn't know you.
20:05Ever since you came home, back from the streets.
20:10You're a stranger to her.
20:13Don't take it to heart, April.
20:15She'll come around.
20:17In time.
20:19Not like a complainer, is it?
20:30Right, okay, so your answer is just to keep lying.
20:39Yeah.
20:41Yeah, so you just sit there in your little web of lies until it all comes crumbling down like it always does.
20:47Why would it?
20:49You and me are the only ones who know the whole truth.
20:51Are you truly okay with all this?
20:53No.
20:55Chas.
20:56Not even close.
20:58If I had another answer...
21:00You do!
21:01Don't, Chas.
21:02Telling the truth is not the answer.
21:05Telling the truth loses me Mac.
21:07It loses me Sarah, for good.
21:09Do you honestly believe they're better off knowing this?
21:12Look at Mac.
21:14He's been through so much already.
21:16He's putting on a brave face.
21:17He can't handle the stress.
21:18And then there's Sarah.
21:19This is her only chance to have her own baby.
21:22It's not hers.
21:24But she doesn't need to ever know that.
21:26Yeah, but Ross will, won't he?
21:27You said yourself he won't rest until he sees the results.
21:31You can't control him.
21:33No, I know.
21:35So how do you think you're going to keep this from Mac and Sarah?
21:38Look, I know I don't have all the answers right now, okay?
21:43But there has to be a solution. I have to find a way.
22:13Look.
22:14Like my friends.
22:15Here in the comments.
22:17I'll see you at the bottom of the gonna.
22:20properties then?
22:22Home.
