00:00Hey, Kojo. My man. What do you say? Listen, I heard you ain't feeling too well, yeah?
00:20What? I got you a little something to cheer you up. Two tickets to the car show. What are you saying? Trying to go on another trip?
00:31A car show? That sounds awesome.
00:35Come on.
00:39Maybe we need to take Kojo on a spa weekend or something.
00:43Yeah, but on what planet would he actually enjoy that, though?
00:46To relax and recover a bit.
00:49Who's that? Kojo? How's he doing?
00:53We took him out for food last night, but he didn't really so much.
00:59So he was exhausted.
01:02Is that what it's like when you go out of work? Ignite his hat?
01:06I don't know, really.
01:09Well, Kojo's your mate, right? I mean, a little bit worried.
01:13He collapsed at work, malnourished, dehydrated.
01:17Look, it's not normal.
01:21I, uh, don't understand what's going on.
01:27Hey, you. It's just me.
01:30I, uh, hadn't heard from you and I don't know.
01:34Did I freak you out last night?
01:38Anyway, just give me a call.
01:42Adoption?
01:43Whoa!
01:44What, are you and Eve back together, then?
01:46And are you actually out of your mind?
01:48It's actually none of your business.
01:49You've already had four kids.
01:50One's locked up, one's barely speaking to you, and the other one's Vinny.
01:51Oi!
01:52This is...
01:53This is actually mental.
01:54Adoption.
01:55How many more lives do you want to ruin?
01:56It was just something Eve mentioned.
01:57I'm not being funny.
01:58If you start going for adoption, I'm actually calling the social.
01:59You are literally the worst parent ever.
02:01You are literally the worst parent ever.
02:02Okay?
02:03Your warm mind.
02:04It's actually none of your business.
02:05I don't mind.
02:06It's actually none of your business.
02:07You've already had four kids.
02:08One's locked up, one's barely speaking to you, and the other one's Vinny.
02:09Oi!
02:10This is...
02:11This is actually mental.
02:12Adoption.
02:13Any more lives do you want to ruin?
02:14It was just something Eve mentioned.
02:15I'm not being funny.
02:16If you start going for adoption, I'm actually calling the social.
02:19You are literally the worst parent ever.
02:22Okay, your warm mind has already messed up way too many kids.
02:24What about you, Mum?
02:25I'm here making the packed lunches while you're, what, drinking coffee?
02:29I'm teaching you to be independent, actually, and you should be helping.
02:33The girl's job, innit?
02:35I am having none of that in this house.
02:37Fags, get out. You're already going to be late.
02:40Come on. Come on, man.
02:44You know, Mum, she's got a point.
02:47Adopting a kid is the worst thing that you could do.
02:51No, he's a grown-up, and he's allowed to decide what he does any of the hands around her.
02:59Yeah, he's just having fun.
03:01That's what you all think, is it?
03:03I mean, we've all had a mad one that's left us a bit wrecked.
03:06Yeah, totally.
03:08I'm not saying he got drunk or anything.
03:11Look, I know you all think I treat him like a child, but...
03:14What's someone like Oki doing hanging out for the globe in his 40s?
03:18I've got older mates.
03:21Cojo's different.
03:23See, look, this is patronising.
03:26He's mates with Harry.
03:28We don't have a problem with that.
03:30Cojo's a cool guy.
03:31It's really not that weird.
03:33So you're okay with Oki, then?
03:35Yeah.
03:37You're not, are you?
03:38You can see it.
03:39Oh, I am.
03:40Something going on, wasn't you?
03:42You'd have to talk to Cojo about that, not me.
03:44What are you not telling me?
03:47Harry, mate, can I have a word?
03:50Yeah.
03:51Sorry.
03:56Harry's right.
03:57You need to talk to Cojo.
04:00Just don't lecture him.
04:04Oh, shame.
04:05You know, kissing, kissing in the middle of the square.
04:07What if Lexi had seen, eh?
04:08What?
04:09She's away on a school trip.
04:10And anyway, she's going to have to get used to it, isn't she?
04:12He is her dad.
04:13Is he?
04:14Oh, Phil, he has been by that girl's side, bringing her up.
04:18He loves Lexi.
04:19Nigel was a fantastic dad to Claire.
04:21By ledger doesn't mean anything.
04:23Yeah, well, I don't want to talk about it.
04:25Right, well, come on.
04:26We'd better get going.
04:27Are you sure Ben's up for this visit?
04:28I mean, he might want a bit of space, might he?
04:30Phil, his marriage has broken down.
04:32Go on.
04:33Listen, I'm, er...
04:35I'm gonna be going straight to the airport from the prison.
04:38I'll take him and Nigel as soon as we'll get to Louise's,
04:40but I'll only be gone a few weeks.
04:41We're fine.
04:42Listen, if Nigel gets distressed...
04:44We'll be fine.
04:45Just go.
04:46Phil.
04:50You've been, er, amazing to Nigel.
04:53Then you'll be the same with Ben.
05:03I'm not new at school.
05:05Sick, aren't I?
05:06Since when?
05:07Oi, I'm talking to you.
05:09Since when were you sick?
05:11I said it was fine.
05:12So just chill, okay?
05:18You don't look sick.
05:19His mum's getting married today.
05:21Mike is feeling down about it.
05:23He couldn't face school, so I thought...
05:25No.
05:26One day off's not gonna hurt.
05:30Okay.
05:31See you later.
05:37He's sat there looking at me for answers
05:39and I'm just as worried as he is.
05:41And then the lies.
05:42I just can't deal with all the lies.
05:44You've just gotta give it some time.
05:45I haven't got time.
05:46They're probably lining him up for another job.
05:48And I'm stood here doing niche
05:50when they know that one call to the police
05:51could just stop it all.
05:52But they'll know it was you, Harry.
05:54After everything they will.
05:55And you know full well what they'll do to you
05:57if you grass on them.
05:58Yes, I know.
05:59But I haven't got any other options.
06:00I don't see you coming up with a better idea.
06:03I am.
06:04And I have.
06:07Look, I've stuck a camera in your flat.
06:10You've done what?
06:11We get evidence of what's going on there
06:13and we use that as leverage against them.
06:14No.
06:15No, cos Kojo will be on that footage.
06:17You'll get arrested as well.
06:18I don't want him in trouble, Dad.
06:20We ain't gonna take it to the police, son.
06:22We'll threaten them with it.
06:23What?
06:24They're using Kojo cos he's under the radar.
06:28As soon as they know we have got his back
06:30and we have got proof of what they're doing to him,
06:32they'll back right away.
06:34That threat will be enough
06:36and they'll move on to someone else.
06:38That's the way it works.
06:39They won't want to take any risks.
06:40But what if they take revenge?
06:42They've got a big operation going on,
06:43a ton of money coming in.
06:45They won't do anything that draws attention to that.
06:48Look, you're a good kid, Harry.
06:50Look, you're a good person
06:52and I'm proud of you
06:53for wanting to help Kojo.
06:55So trust me.
06:57This will work.
06:59And you,
07:01you've just got to hold your nerve.
07:11Jean let you stay off school
07:12so you could look after Charlie.
07:16Do you want to put your phone down?
07:18Maybe go and check?
07:19Yeah, Freddy's up there.
07:20What's wrong?
07:21Look.
07:22When she's sick,
07:23she just wants her mum, right?
07:24Why are you going on at me?
07:25Because I'm trying to work
07:26and she won't try not.
07:28I'm going, aren't I?
07:29Then will you just get that as well?
07:31Why do everything round me now?
07:32Trust me, Lilz,
07:33you are so far from doing everything.
07:36You might want to come back later.
07:37She's having a crash out.
07:38Lily!
07:39She's been sick.
07:41She's been sick.

07:49Yeah, sorry.

14:40well prison can be the making of some people you know it doesn't stop you being a good parent
14:52so you can adopt with a criminal record well it depends on the crime yeah i mean it's the
14:57first thing i checked everything's taken into consideration like a full 360 of your life you
15:03know and they'll need to interview your kids they interview people you've been in long-term
15:09relationships with friends family employers you know it's like it's like a full deep dive on who
15:15you are you know what you want and what you can offer you really want to adopt i mean i can't lie
15:24the uh back van accounts doing my head in it was just a bit of a welcome distraction that's all
15:29it's not going to be easy
15:34it's going to take time and it may all come to nothing but it is possible
15:43and all of this
15:47is it a deal breaker
15:59there are so many things that have happened in our relationship that should have been deal breakers
16:10there are so many reasons that both of us should have went for the hills
16:15you know but we're here right we're still fighting
16:20yeah we are
16:21because for better or for worse you are the love of my life
16:28so deal breaker i don't know
16:35but it is something that i would like to explore

17:12but when they come to me asking for a bit on my cellmate and talking about relocating
