00:30It was November 2020 that I got transferred back to Horton.
00:39Hang on. I'm still trying to wrap my head around why you didn't tell me.
00:47I thought if I was close by it would be difficult for you to properly move on. It was easier this way.
00:54Yeah, you probably had a point.
00:59I met Kev on day one. It's fair to say we didn't exactly hit it off straight away.
01:05This is your new suite. Mind driving the chandelier on your way in.
01:08Who's this?
01:17This is Robert. In ice.
01:20What are you in for? Over to your library book?
01:31Murder.
01:32What did you see a murder?
01:35What does it for?
01:37The guy that raped my sister.
01:47How about you?
01:48I'm Dobry.
01:49The boys are set up. I'm anything.
01:52Right, well I suppose I should show you around.
01:56That bed, that's mine.
01:59All that stuff up there, that's mine.
02:02That fit bird on the wall, she's definitely mine.
02:05Toilet is technically mine but I'm not a monster so I'll let you use it as long as you don't spray. I hate that.
02:11Yeah, me too.
02:12Now the big thing you need to remember, and I cannot stress this enough, don't touch my guy. As if you do.
02:21Well, I'll have to get my last band made to tell you what'll happen. As if he can talk, ever again.
02:37In those early months Kev took quite a flexible approach to his own set of rules.
02:42Hey! This your missus.
02:45There was a mic!
02:47Just looking.
02:49Who is she?
02:51It's my sister.
02:54Who is this?
02:57It's my son.
03:01You got any kids?
03:02No.
03:03You're out for their life.
03:05Oh.
03:07Well, well, well.
03:08No, give me that.
03:15No, I'm not gay.
03:17Convincing.
03:18There's a big wedding.
03:19I mean, I'm bi. He's my ex.
03:22He'd sack you off when you got set down, yeah?
03:26No.
03:28I broke it off with him.
03:31You don't want him wasting his life waiting for me.
03:33You ought to be careful, mate.
03:38Something like that.
03:42It's a massive target on your back.
03:44What? By the looks of you.
03:46You might already have one of them.
03:49There's nothing I can't handle.
03:50You should put those on your wall.
04:01This in here.
04:03Safe space.
04:04I did a good.
04:05I'm talking about the whole thing.
04:06It's not.
04:07I'm not sure there's a guy in it.
04:09He's not very nice.
04:11I'll be talking about it.
04:13I'll be talking about the whole thing over there.
04:14And if you don't know.
04:15Pardon me.
04:16I'll be talking about the whole thing and the whole thing.
04:18I still do the whole thing.
04:20I don't know.
04:22I'm look at a completely different side.
04:23I wish I could go on my side.
04:25I'm going to tell you what was wrong.
04:26I think it's continued to get worse.
04:56I think it's going to get worse.
05:25All right, we need to get you out.
05:29All right, just get me up.
05:33Who was it?
05:36No, it doesn't matter.
05:37Yeah, it doesn't matter.
05:38Was it just?
05:39I just passed him on the landing.
05:41Did he do this?
05:44No, it's not.
05:48He just didn't kill me.
05:55I was going to think I want to see you again.
06:05Clearly.
06:07Right, yeah, sorry.
06:09Just a cheeky month in solitary.
06:11Good day that stood on my head, mate.
06:13Not a big deal.
06:15What are you on about?
06:16You took on Jez and his mates on your own.
06:19You're welcome.
06:21It wasn't just about you, anyway.
06:23Sometimes people need a gentle reminder he's running things
06:26and I think I might have got me point across.
06:28With...
06:31A bit of help.
06:34From my special friend.
06:40So, er, what can I show you in?
06:43Just a bit of extra time added onto my sentence.
06:46What?
06:47I don't know what to say.
06:48Er...
06:50Why can I repay you?
06:52I can't.
06:53Don't have to.
06:55The only person in here I don't want to kill.
06:58Excuse me.
07:07I knew things were bad.
07:09I didn't realise they were that bad.
07:11If Kev hadn't have stepped in,
07:12it would have been me that would have been killed for sure.
07:15So he does have his uses then?
07:17He saved my life.
07:22And thanks to him,
07:23prison went from being a living hell to...
07:27something more bearable.
07:29Okay, so then how did you go from cellmates to...
07:32something more?
07:33And as the months passed by,
07:35we became more comfortable in each other's company.
07:46Karate Kwon Do,
07:47it's not just about mashing people up.
07:50It's about mind, body and soul.
07:53Karate Kwon Do?
07:54Yeah.
07:55That's real?
07:56Yeah.
07:57It's a mixed martial arts philosophy
07:59that I have developed over many years of study
08:01and practice.
08:02Where do you study it?
08:04The Karate Kwon Do,
08:06and other martial arts movies.
08:09Oh yeah, go on then.
08:10The rest show us some.
08:11Right.
08:12Set the stance.
08:16Now,
08:17it's important to remember,
08:18in any combat situation,
08:19never underestimate
08:21the element of surprise.
08:26Oh yeah.
08:27Didn't see that coming.
08:29Very few do.
08:30Yeah.
08:34This is where we first met.
08:40What?
08:41Nothing.
08:42No, what is it?
08:44You can tell me anything.
08:47I've never...
08:49No.
09:00I'm not gay.
09:04Never mind.
09:17Oh, and can I interest you in one of our new brownies?
09:19They are dairy-free, gluten-free, nut-free, and they're vegan.
09:23No, they sound horrible.
09:24Oh.
09:27So go on, what do you want to say?
09:29Right.
09:30Do you love Robert?
09:32Yeah, of course I do.
09:33Well then surely you can see how cruel it is
09:35lying to him
09:36about the fact that you're about to die.
09:41Yeah but,
09:42if I tell him the truth then
09:46he'll just leave me like everybody else in my life ever has.
09:48You don't know that.
09:53If he finds out that you lied to him
09:55you can be guaranteed that he will.
09:58Well he's not going to find out, is he?
10:02Me and Robert are meant to be together.
10:05And if I have to tell the honest little white lie
10:06to make sure of it then
10:08so be it.
10:09Yeah?
10:12Well I have that.
10:13Where'd you get that?
10:14Ask me no questions, me tell you no lies.
10:20I've got news.
10:21What?
10:22I'll meet my solicitor in a bit.
10:24Apparently
10:25some new evidence has come to light.
10:28I might have grounds for an appeal.
10:31So you might be getting out?
10:33Well maybe.
10:35I'm trying not to get too carried away with it all but
10:37I thought of going home.
10:40Get my life back.
10:47Yeah, yeah.
10:49Yeah mam, sounds, sounds ace.
10:55Best get going because she'll be here soon.
10:57Good job you got that whisky.
10:59Yeah.
11:00I might have something to celebrate.
11:01Yeah.
11:02Yeah.
11:32Kev? Kev? What happened?
11:40He did your man. He had a knife.
11:44Help! Help! He's been stabbed!
11:48Who did this?
11:50I don't know. I don't know. They were wearing masks.
11:52They said it was something to do with Jensen.
11:55Oh, God, this is my fault.
11:58I'm so sorry. Help!
12:01What was something I've got earlier?
12:04I did rob that bank.
12:09I love you.
12:12I love you, too.
12:14If I survived this...
12:19Will you marry me?
12:22Before I met you, I never...
12:26I never chance to have any kind of a future.
12:31Please.
12:37Of course I will.
12:39Promise me, promise me you'll leave.
12:40Bye!
12:41Yeah, yeah, okay. I'm back. I'm back.
12:43Come on!
12:44Stop!
12:59Well, way to get engaged.
13:02Was Kev alright?
13:03Yeah, I was lucky they missed the vital organ, but...
13:05bounced back pretty quick.
13:09After that, I always felt like I owed him.
13:11So was getting married the reason you didn't go through your appeal?
13:14It was a factor.
13:15But I'd pleaded guilty to murder, so...
13:19Even with the new evidence, the chances of an appeal just seemed impossible.
13:24So I pushed it to the back of my mind.
13:28Until one day, I got a visit from someone I wasn't expecting.
13:32What are you doing here?
13:44I baked you a cake.
13:45There's a nail fired in one of the layers.
13:47What?
13:48I'm joking.
13:51Like you'd have the patience to file your way out.
13:54So how did you know I was here?
13:56I didn't want people to know.
13:57I got it out of Victoria. I can be very persuasive.
14:01Right, well what do you want?
14:05I'll get to the point.
14:10I've got cancer.
14:11I'm... I'm... I'm so sorry.
14:18And I'll find out tomorrow if the treatment's worked.
14:21But I already know the answer and it's not good news.
14:26Look, the family don't know this yet, but...
14:31I've decided to stop treatment.
14:35Which is what's led me to you.
14:38Well, what can I do?
14:39I came here to make a deal.
14:43I won't tell Aaron about you being so close
14:45if you start your appeal.
14:48Why?
14:49Because he's run off abroad somewhere.
14:51It doesn't look like he's ever coming back.
14:54Why? What's happened?
14:55Sweetheart, there's been all sorts going on.
15:00Look, I won't sugarcoat it. It's been bad.
15:04Really bad.
15:09And did she...
15:14Did she tell you what happened between me and Liv?
15:17Yeah.
15:18Running away from Liv and not being there for her.
15:21It's...
15:23It's my biggest regret.
15:26You and Liv sorted things out in the end.
15:29That's what matters.
15:30That must have been hard for you to hear about.
15:32There's not a lot you can do from prison.
15:35Yeah, I felt completely useless.
15:39But it was what Faith said next that really changed everything.
15:43I wish I could help, but there's nothing I can do.
15:48Me and Aaron aren't together anymore.
15:50Look, I don't accept that.
15:52Well, it's not up to you.
15:54You're the only person who's ever been able to get through to him.
15:57He'd come home for you.
15:58From the sounds of it, he might be happier where he is.
16:03He was happiest with you.
16:05What you had was special. Everyone could see it.
16:08I mean...
16:10The new evidence isn't even that strong.
16:13It might not make any difference.
16:15There's no ham in trying, though, isn't there?
16:17And we all know what you're like when you've set your heart on something.
16:23Wild horses don't stop you.
16:27You do still love him.
16:30Don't you?
16:37More than anything.
16:42So take some advice from an old gal
16:44who's looking down the barrel.
16:51Get him back.
16:54And hold him tight.
16:56Because love like that should never go to waste.
17:09I can't believe my gran did that for us.
17:12If it wasn't for Faith reminding me of what matters,
17:15I wouldn't be here now.
17:18To Faith Dingle.
17:20Wicked, wise and...
17:22wonderful.
17:28Years after I'd started, the appeal was stalling.
17:31I saw your post about Aaron and John getting married.
17:34Gave me the last bit of fire that I needed to give my useless solicitor a kick up the backside.
17:42Get my case heard.
17:44And it worked.
17:47And how did Kev take that?
17:51Not great.
17:53Didn't exactly make things easy, to be honest.
17:54What's all this I've heard about you getting out early?
17:59All the screws were banging on about it and I said that can't be the case because I'd known if you had an appeal.
18:05I wanted to be the one to tell you.
18:08You've been lying to me all this time.
18:10I thought that you loved me.
18:12I do.
18:14But you've been trying to leave me.
18:16Just like everybody else has my entire life.
18:18After everything that I've done for you.
18:20It's not that I want to leave you.
18:22It's just...
18:24My sister.
18:27She's got a brain tumor.
18:29What?
18:32My solicitor's been appealing, trying to get me out on early release so I can be with her.
18:37But she's in a really bad way.
18:38She's...
18:39I don't even think she's going to make it.
18:40I...
18:42I'm sorry.
18:43I just...
18:44I'm really sorry.
18:45No, no, no.
18:46Come on, come on.
18:48I'm sorry.
18:52I hate that I've lied to her.
18:53I really do.
18:55But...
18:57Kev's done so much for me.
19:01She didn't want to hurt him by telling me about you.
19:04Um...
19:06Well, I get that now.
19:09Yeah, Kev might be a psycho, but he doesn't deserve to die alone.
19:15So then, as you know, he got out, radio silence, so I didn't want anybody to do under the circumstances.
19:21Told him I was dying.
19:23And what happens in a few months, when you're still alive?
19:25Maybe you could tell him there was a mix-up with the test results and that I was misdiagnosed just to him.
19:33Yeah, I'm not sure more lies is the right answer.
19:37I lie about stuff all the time, eh?
19:40When I was eight, I beat up this lad because he didn't believe me dad was Arnold Schwarzenegger.
19:46I lie about not having a kid all the time.
19:49You've got a kid?
19:51Yeah, a son.
19:53But why lie about it?
19:55Well, because I don't want people thinking bad of me for never bothering with him.
19:58See?
20:00Exactly like that.
20:02I mean, I never asked to have him.
20:04I just had a crazy one night with a barmaid in Leeds and then suddenly, bang, there's a baby.
20:09Does he live with the mother?
20:11No.
20:12He came up for adoption as soon as he was born.
20:15He's got Emma something.
20:17I think she got herself murdered a few years ago.
20:20And you have never contacted him?
20:22No.
20:24Trust me, I've done him a favour.
20:26Good parenting does not.
20:28I'm running my family in any way.
20:30He could be living on the other side of the world now for a while.
20:33But I do feel bad about lying to Robert, but...
20:37If it wasn't for him, I would have come out of prison and had nothing.
20:39I don't think.
20:41I do understand that.
20:43Robert was struggling when he first came out.
20:45Took him a while to find his feet.
20:47What with Victoria's health problems and all that.
20:50Health problems?
20:53Yeah. You know, the brain tumour.
21:00Whatever you need, I'm there for you.
21:03Me too.
21:09We only have to keep up the lies a little while longer than then.
21:14Hopefully, Kev will die a happy man.
21:17Why are you looking at me like that?
21:20Robert told me that she had a brain tumour and was in a proper bad way.
21:26Is that not true?
21:30We're approaching the rather sticky area of doctor-patient confidentiality.
21:35Your face has told me everything I need to know.
21:38I almost think I'm a right book.
21:42Why would he lie to me about something like that?
