00:00Oh, my goodness.
00:30I queued for half an hour for a cronut from that bakery.
00:33I hadn't thought I was mad.
00:35But it was worth it, though.
00:36You should have seen the look on his face when he took his first bite.
00:38Well, this is their take on a rum cake.
00:41Toya!
00:42Thanks.
00:42Toya, have you checked it?
00:44No.
00:45Only the best for my Ronald.
00:47Now, this is gluten-free, sugar-free, fat-free, yeah?
00:53Your face!
00:55I'm pulling your leg, love!
00:57Good one.
00:58This is absolutely fabulous, darling.
01:03Lovely.
01:03Thank you so much.
01:05Safe journey.
01:07Enjoy.
01:08Oh, we will do.
01:11Come on, let's get it inside.
01:13Yeah, so your tummy's about to feed off, isn't it, Annie, with everything it's been through?
01:16But, Annie, you really need to drink more, yeah?
01:19You want to bring her off the shop?
01:21Okay, hey, Doc, you'll know this, okay?
01:23Do we have, like, an ice machine?
01:26Ignore him.
01:26He thinks he's in a five-star hotel.
01:29Well, sorry to break up the party, but we need to run some more blood tests.
01:33It's just to check the tablets for leaving Ash's system.
01:35Okay, but then she can come home, yeah?
01:36Well, we'd like to monitor your progress a few more days, and we've got you booked in again with the psych team, first thing.
01:43Look, please don't say Darren or Nihal.
01:46No, it's just...
01:48Look, this time last week, I was having coffee with her in the canteen.
01:53Now, look at me.
01:59So, er, you found yourself a wedding venue?
02:01Er, well, I'm keeping it on the down, well.
02:03What about Chariot Square? I mean, it'd be a great showcase, wouldn't it?
02:06Oh, okay, okay, bit of her busman's holiday.
02:09One of the kitchen porters is ringing sick. I'll be stubbed there in my wedding dress with my marigolds on.
02:15Oh, here we go, early birds.
02:16What's she doing here?
02:20She's got some brass neck on her.
02:22No-one wants her here.
02:24Kevin does, and tonight's my night, all right?
02:27Okay.
02:28Come in!
02:29Oh, Ronnie, you made that for you.
02:31Hey!
02:33This is impressionist phase, eh? It's mighty cool.
02:36Look, I know how you feel, but this is important to me.
02:39Important enough to kill the vibe?
02:41Look, we've got to show the boys that me and Abbie can still be friends regardless.
02:45Regardless of how she's chewed you up and spat you out.
02:50There's being a friend and there's being a mug care.
02:53Hey!
02:54Happy birthday, mate.
02:55No presents, he said.
02:57Oh, I'm sorry, bro. Am I making you look bad?
03:00Oi, wee!
03:01Ha, ha, ha, look out. The heavy mobs arrived.
03:04Listen, I want you to take a pew and grab some fizz, grab some fizz.
03:06Hey, happy birthday.
03:08Love you.
03:09With Ollie, bye.
03:09Oh, thank you so much.
03:12Right, are we all here? Come on, come on.
03:14Come on, sit down, sit down. Sits off, bed in.
03:17Where's Jack and Alfie?
03:18I'll show them in when the food comes.
03:21Debbie.
03:23Where do you want me?
03:25Don't tempt me.
03:26Who are we waiting for?
03:28Er, James.
03:29He's busy settling the girls down with the babysitter.
03:31Mm, make it hear doing a grinder drive, Harry.
03:34He's not, is he?
03:36You can't hurry perfection.
03:37Oh, here he is.
03:39Sorry about my brother, everybody.
03:41He identifies as late.
03:43Yeah, his pronouns are almost there.
03:46Mr. Runway.
03:47Park your bum, chum.
03:48Oh, you've drawn the short straw.
03:51Sorry.
03:57Believe you me, Mrs. Keller,
03:58if your Damien's teeth were in the back of my cab,
04:00I'd have found her by now.
04:02Yep.
04:03Oh, Pernsby sausage and bean pasty, Stevie boy.
04:06Er, yes, Mrs. Keller, of course, no problem.
04:09Yeah, bye-bye.
04:11Wow.
04:11I haven't had one of these since I was...
04:13Since you were in short trousers.
04:15Trisha.
04:16I was passing.
04:19Wow.
04:24I told you it'll be fine.
04:29None of this is fine.
04:31It's all managed.
04:33You'd fallen out of love with Sally.
04:36A blind man in a blizzard can see you still carrying a torch for her.
04:40I can't switch me feelings on and off.
04:44If you want to be a role model,
04:47you need to grow a pair.
04:48She says that to a bloke with one testicle.
04:51Oh, Kev, I am so sorry.
04:52I wasn't thinking.
04:53Obviously.
04:55Sorry.
04:55So sorry.
04:56So where were you based?
04:58Essen.
04:59It's about half an hour outside of Dortmund.
05:01Sud Rock.
05:02Well, you know it.
05:03Oh, man, I had some wild nights in that dive bar.

05:08To Germany?
05:09Oh, yeah, there's loads of rugby clubs out there.
05:11Union, not league.
05:12It's because the army brass used to play.

23:46that's not exactly what i meant

23:51you know that was it
23:52not to it
23:52i mean i won't
23:53i won't go mad if she bumped into one of her exes
23:55i mean all she did was bring me a pasty
23:59you know
24:00we used to
24:00we used to try and buy booze off her when we were kids
24:02but we weren't her age
24:03so she would never sell it to us
24:04but she'd make us buy something else
24:05and i always went for a pasty
24:06she knew how old you were
24:08yeah
24:08and she still slept with you
24:10oh aye
24:11i lost my virginity to her
24:13you were 14

24:45but what are you doing back anyway
24:46i thought you were staying with her

24:50how do you mean
24:51told asha you were angry with her
24:53you what
24:55well she wanted to know how you were feeling
24:57and i was honest
24:58and what'd she say
25:00well she got upset
25:01well are you surprised
25:03because that's the last thing she needs to hear right
25:06i know
25:06i'm an idiot
25:07for god's sake
25:08i've been consistently calm and reassuring with her for good reason
25:11because i wanted to have the help and the support that she needs
25:13and you have just gone and ruined it
25:15i'm sorry
25:15but you've ruined it
25:17i mean how dare you upset her when she's in such a fragile state
25:20i'm sorry it was a mistake
25:21you've been there for one hour
25:23and you managed to mess everything up
25:26i don't want you visiting her again
25:29i'm sorry
25:35she's the love of me life
25:37so whose crime's worse eh
25:38you defending him

25:42he's me brother
25:43kev i am so sorry
25:44don't
25:45she wasn't happy with you kev
25:46your marriage was dead
25:48you can't blame me for that
25:49can i
25:50hey hey hey hey
25:51you need to leave her
25:51i'm calling the police
25:52don't worry
25:53i'm going
25:54look i'll i'll come along with you
25:56no
25:56kev wait
25:58what kind of man does that to his own brother
26:03i was going to ask the same question
26:07right we'll have this one and then that's me
26:11you really don't see the problem do you
26:14what problem
26:15you and trisha
26:16you're only saying that because you fancy her
26:18you were underage she was essentially grooming you
26:20give over most of lads in my class were having sex at 14
26:23with women in their 20s
26:24yeah and they thought we were mints so did i
26:26how would you feel if faye had been sleeping with some 20 odd year old lad when she was 14
26:30well that's different
26:31it's exactly the same
26:32no it's not because a she's a girl
26:33boys can be groomed too
26:35b i wasn't being groomed i was well up for it
26:37absolutely no excuse you were a minor
26:39c things were different back then
26:41oh so it's perfectly fine for an adult to take advantage of a child
26:45because at the time nobody cared all right mr packham i am simply not saying this because i'm a teacher
26:50was a teacher
26:51i'm a retired teacher
26:53you know if it was you you'd not stop banging on about it you know you wouldn't
26:57you really are missing the point
26:58there was nothing wrong with what we did and if you don't agree i don't care
27:01james look
27:08it's no wonder you wanted to keep us a secret
27:10i didn't want to hurt you
27:11i'm not hurt
27:12it was never more than a hookup
27:13but i'm angry
27:14angry that you've lied to me
27:16and now i'm caught up in all this mess
27:18i'm assuming abby doesn't know you've been sleeping around behind her back
27:21no
27:23so you've been lying to her as well
27:25there's anyone you've not been lying to
27:27i know i've made mistakes
27:29so how do you intend to sort this out
27:31and what do you actually want to get out of all this
27:33because i have got no idea
27:35i uh
27:37i think i want to be with abby
27:42you think you do
27:43so you've just been using her
27:45no i'm not completely heartless
27:46james please just
27:48don't tell her about us
27:50maybe she deserves to know
27:51please
27:53you're not in a position
27:54to ask for anything
27:55i didn't want you to find out like this
28:03so when were you going to sit me down
28:05and calmly tell me

36:46To meet and family collected by Patricio.
37:04They're having some joy down this near site.
37:07Clever play initially, creating a 2v1...
37:10What, your favourite?
37:12An extra pop of Dom's?
37:13And I've got a bottle of that Merlot that you like.
37:19Oh, come on, babe.
37:21No, I'm fine, Tim.
37:22I'm just reading how neutrals are coming back in style.
37:25Oh, finally. That's a relief.
37:28Listen, I'm sorry about me and Trisha.
37:29She just turned up and I didn't want to be rude.
37:31Yeah, well, you missed our anniversary meal, Tim.
37:34Yeah, I know, and I said I'm sorry, I told you.
37:36And the next thing, she's bringing your pasties to work.
37:39That's more than turning up. That's got intent.
37:41Oh, don't be daft.
37:43And I do think it's odd that I've never heard of her.
37:47Well, why would you?
37:48I thought I'd heard about all of your girlfriends.
37:51No chance.
37:52I mean, yeah, you have, yeah. Most of them, yeah.
37:54Except Trisha, which makes me think she must have been special.
37:58Well, she...
37:59She was the first person I slept with.
38:02So she was special?
38:03No, nothing meaningful, you know.
38:06It's like, I didn't date her at all.
38:07You know, she was...
38:08She was older.
38:10We just, you know, mess about, that's all.
38:13Yeah.
38:14Well, I get the impression she wants to mess about some more.
38:17Well, she can look, but she can't touch.
38:19The only person I want to mess about with is you.
38:20Don't give up.
38:23Come on, let's have some popper dance.
38:26Hey, gorgeousness.
38:39I have brought you some famous chicken curry.
38:44Oh, look, she's not famous.
38:46You just call it that.
38:47Yeah, well, it is in my house, and that's all that counts.
38:50Dad, I'm not really hungry.
38:52OK.
38:54Right.
38:57I've seen Bernie, and I know she's upset you,
39:00and I'm really angry.
39:02OK, but, like, at her, OK, not you, OK?
39:04Because I'm never angry at you, right?
39:05Well, that's not what she said.
39:07Well, she shouldn't have said anything.
39:09Look, Dad, if it's the truth, I'd rather just know.
39:13Like a yes.
39:15Like, yes, yes, I was angry, OK, but with me?
39:19Like, for not noticing the signs for not being a good dad.
39:22It has nothing to do with you not being a good dad.
39:24Yeah, but I didn't see you were struggling, did I?
39:26Because I hid it from you.
39:28Yeah, but I should have known that something was wrong.
39:30You're my daughter, right?
39:31Or you should have been able to talk to me,
39:33and I didn't, and you couldn't,
39:34and that's got to be my fault.
39:35Dad, it really isn't.
39:39OK, I didn't even know what was happening myself.
39:43OK, I just...
39:45I had these dark feelings
39:47that I didn't know how to talk about.
39:51It isn't your fault.
39:53OK, please.
39:54Please believe me.
40:01No, you have to promise me not to shut me out again.
40:05OK.
40:07But then you should know, um...
40:10I want to quit being a paramedic.
40:13OK, fine.
40:14I understand.
40:15And no-one's going to expect you
40:16to make any kind of decisions right now.
40:18I'm not going to change my mind.
40:20OK, then fine.
40:21Because your mental health
40:22is the most important thing to me.
40:25Yeah.
40:25Right, I'll wash up.
40:30Oh, thanks, love.
40:33Oh, that is a lovely colour.
40:36Chocolate plum.
40:38A bold neutral that retains its restful quality.
40:41Hey, do you fancy a chocolate plum accent wall
40:46in the bedroom?
40:49You know, behind the bed.
40:52Tim?
40:53Hmm?
40:53Yeah, sounds good.
40:56Who are you texting?
41:00Just... Steve.
41:04Come on, darling.
41:05There you go, Alfie.
41:07It's just through there.
41:09Did you get any snacks?
41:11Er, crisps.
41:12Pork scratch-ins.
41:13Pork scratch-ins?
41:14Choice of the bar was limited.
41:16Just shout if you need any help, OK?
41:18It's all right.
41:20Oh, Carl.
41:23Kevin was so upset.
41:27And then he was so angry.
41:30You can hardly blame him, can you?
41:33I'm sorry about that text.
41:35It was stupid.
41:38But at least it's all out in the open now.
41:41And we can finally stop hiding and be together.
41:46Yeah.
41:51This is what you want, innit?
41:53Of course it is.
41:54Because I've given up everything for you.
41:55I know you have.
41:58Hey.
41:59We'll be fine.
42:01I promise.
42:02I take it she's gone?
42:14Yep.
42:16With Alfie.
42:17I know you love that little boy, Kev, but it's probably for the best.
42:28How can you say it's for the best?
42:30Sorry, that sounded really insensitive.
42:36Two and a half months, they've been at it.
42:38I know.
42:40I don't mean I know.
42:41I mean, I know.
42:43Yeah, it's awful.
42:45How could they?
42:47They must have been meeting at the hotel.
42:49Yeah, I suppose so.
42:52Did you not see anything suspicious?
42:56No.
42:58You would have told me, wouldn't you?
42:59Oh, yeah.
43:00Yeah, of course I would.
43:03She says she's in love with him.
43:06So she says.
43:07I still love her.
43:11She doesn't deserve your love.
43:15Look.
43:16I know it doesn't feel like this now.
43:18But in time, you will realise, Kev, you're better off without her.
43:22She's just a ball of chaos.
43:24She's selfish.
43:27Messy.
43:29Insecure.
43:31And you don't want that in your life.
43:34And neither does Jack.
43:37Thanks.
43:39I needed to hear that.
43:42What sisters for, eh?
43:45Lucky to have you, Deb.
43:47You're stuck by me through thick and thin.
43:51Look, I know the future's not going to be easy, but...
43:55I'm going to be here for whatever you need.
43:59After today, you're the only family I've got round here.
44:03Well, the one I can trust anyway.
