00:00I hate to tell you, and I told you so.
00:06Then don't.
00:08I warned you 20 years ago, nothing good would ever come of this.
00:12The demons have finally caught up with me, and it's time to feast them.
00:15Just drive, will you?
00:30Are you sure about this?
00:41I've got to.
00:42It's hardly changed.
00:44I would have been raised to the ground if those developers had got away.
00:57You've got some explaining to deal.
01:00I could have sworn I read the eulogy at your funeral 20 years ago.
01:07Mick Johnson.
01:11You are not seeing Gemma.
01:13Is this my daughter, Sheila?
01:15That girl stopped being your daughter the minute that you faked your own death.
01:20The trauma she went through because of the way you treated her.
01:23Look, Simba kept me in touch with what was going on,
01:25and I'm grateful to you and Billy for taking her in.
01:28And would you like to know the details of that?
01:30And the times we sat by her bed, the two of us, night after night,
01:34while she cried herself to sleep,
01:37thinking that her dad had died in a fire.
01:39You're losing it, girl.
01:44Money just doesn't fall from the sky.
01:46No?
01:47Hey.
01:48What's all that, then?
01:50Hey?
01:53Bobby!
01:53Thanks a lot, kid.
01:56Cheers.
01:58Bad money's a bit tight this month,
02:00so I can't do need as much this time.
02:02Don't worry, kid.
02:03Every little helps.
02:04Thanks a lot, love.
02:05Cheers.
02:05Don't forget the corners.
02:08That's Simbad!
02:10You all right, mate?
02:11Yeah, Sam?
02:12Yeah.
02:13Good to see you.
02:13I'm yours.
02:14Look at you!
02:16Oh, how are you?
02:17Good to see you.
02:18Give us a hand, if you like it.
02:19I don't even have to book it these days.
02:21It's actually now, you know what?
02:23Is that your thing?
02:24I think so, yeah.
02:26Thanks, sir.
02:26It's what's just to me.
02:27You're not from round here, are you?
02:28I used to be, but, you know,
02:30it's not a dog in a pond pub.
02:31There's been a big to-do there today.
02:33Oh, the story of my life may give one drama to another.
02:37What's that?
02:45Got yourself into.
02:46Do you know?
02:47She was in grief therapy for years,
02:49trying to deal with your...
02:52death.
02:53Never forgive myself for that.
02:54You're looking really well for the dead man.
02:57Long story, Billy.
02:58I'll bet.
02:59What are you doing here, Mick?
03:01You're supposed to be six foot under.
03:02Oh, well, Softland thinks he's going to have a reunion
03:05with his daughter, but over my dead body.
03:08I think it's a bit late for that.
03:14Dad.
03:16Gemma.
03:19Look.
03:21I know you must have a million questions you want to ask me,
03:24and I promise I'll answer them all,
03:26but I've got something urgent I need to talk to you about.
03:28It's going to be five minutes, please.
03:31She.
03:34Mick, remind me of us, our pizza shop.
03:36That was the best cheesy garlic bread in Liverpool.
03:39Still can't wrap me head around all this.
03:41No, me neither.
03:44Gemma's had such a massive shock today.
03:47Do you think she'll be all right?
03:48I had a few prints with her fellow Warren at Bev's bar.
03:51He'll look after her.
03:52I hope so.
03:53Gemma's not as tough as she makes out.
03:55Look who I found, loitering outside.
03:58Are you?
03:58I wasn't loitering.
04:00Me mum asked me to give you this.
04:02Oh.
04:04Jackie Dixon blanks me every time I meet her in the close,
04:07but she takes her parcel in for me.
04:10Progress, I suppose.
04:11I can't believe you two fell out over a jet washer.
04:14If you lend somebody something,
04:16you don't expect them to keep it for months.
04:18And anyway, our patio is very filthy.
04:20Needs a good clean.
04:22Less said about the patio, the better.
04:23You look nice, love.
04:25I've had somewhere.
04:26There's some 90s thing going on in town that looks good.
04:28Oh.
04:29That'll be me taxi.
04:30See you later.
04:31See you, love.
04:32Anyway, me and Billy are having a pub lunch on Sunday,
04:35and if you'd like to join us,
04:37with whichever girl you're seeing this week...
04:41Sounds good.
04:42No chance of you and Lindsay making things work.
04:45That is done and dusted.
04:47She binged you off, didn't she?
04:48I finished with her, you blit.
04:53Me and Debbie are going to lay some flowers
04:55in our Damon's grave tomorrow.
04:56I can't believe it.
04:58Next month, it'll be 38 years since we lost them.
05:01Seems like yesterday to me.
05:04Oh.
05:05I don't know.
05:06It's lovely.
05:07It's not right, though, is it?
05:09Hard-working people having to go to food banks
05:11to feed the family.
05:12Hey, parents living off the kids' scraps
05:16cos they can't afford a meal themselves.
05:18I know.
05:18My generation can't even afford
05:19to put the heating on in the winter.
05:22Hey, this was the first dance of your wedding, wasn't it?
05:25Oh, right, I'll leave you two lovemates to it.
05:28No.
05:31Hey, this Corkill fella, he's not good enough for you.
05:35Oh, don't start this again, Bob.
05:37Don't start it.
05:39I'd like to win you back.
05:40Bob, what we had was over 30 years ago.
05:46Was it?
05:47Well, what was that three months ago?
05:52Um...
05:53OK, I'm going to have to go in
05:58until you'll get cold.
06:01See you, Bob.
06:06Now, then.
06:08Hey, Sheila told me about our soon-to-be new neighbour.
06:10I'm Tim, number eight.
06:12Nice to meet you.
06:14I'm Pauline.
