00:26I'll give you 60 quid if you can spell quinoa.
00:28I'll give you 80 quid if you leave quinoa off the menu.
00:31Done.
00:32Did Megan say what time she's dropping him back?
00:34Well, he's already missed his morning lessons, Chad.
00:37Did you phone the school? I bet you they weren't impressed.
00:40Well, they need to be grateful they've got an elite athlete on their hands.
00:43Ah, good afternoon.
00:45Is it lunchtime already?
00:47Some of us work proper hours, you know.
00:49Since waking up at 10 o'clock, I literally have not stopped.
00:52Oh, what a hard time.
00:54Whereas me, I've only, you know, had breakfast with a barrister and proofread three contracts as big as your own.
00:59Spell quinoa.
01:00No.
01:01Oh, there you go. He's not far off.
01:03He always says that. Then he doesn't turn up for two hours.
01:05He reads the time in slow motion.
01:07Hiya. Sorry I'm late.
01:09We're not due in till tonight.
01:11Hiya.
01:12Oh, hi Didi.
01:13I asked her to come in for lunchtime.
01:15Why didn't you tell me?
01:16Did I need to?
01:18S-sorry. I'll just go.
01:21No, no. You do no such thing.
01:23Yes, you need to tell me if you're going to change the rotor for no good reason when it's not your job to do so.
01:28I was a young mother once.
01:30It's not easy.
01:31We can't run this place on pity.
01:34Honestly, it's fine. I could just come back.
01:36Fish on the menu.
01:37And how's that?
01:38Thinking I'd take the box.
01:39Cod. No chips. Like they serve it in Spain. That way people keep drinking.
01:43Could even call it bacalao.
01:44I think people might find that overly poncy. Like a cocktail night.
01:49Fine. I'll do fish and chips with mushy peas and tartar sauce. Anything else?
01:54Burger? Scampi? Chicken tikka masala?
01:57Just remember us at the north-west of England. Not downtown Madrid.
02:01What do you feel about oysters?
02:03Oh, for the love of God.
02:05Alright, am I staying or going?
02:06Cue you.
02:07I am.
02:08O-A.
02:09Excellent, eh?
02:10Look, you might as well stay now you're here.
02:13Sure, we need something lovely for the ponters to look at.
02:23It's not, it's too risky.
02:26When can I see you again?
02:27Soon.
02:28Tomorrow?
02:29Hmm, maybe the day after. Get the tramart to Bury, I'll pick you up.
02:34What case?
02:35Oh, stop it!
02:37Last night was so hot.
02:39I'll find somewhere.
02:41We'll get a room out in Bury or Rochdale.
02:45Yeah.
02:46Yeah, we can go and see another film. Get back to eat.
02:49It was so easy to fool them.
02:51I'll just tell them I'm staying at my mate's house.
02:54One kiss.
02:56One kiss.
03:01Wind your window down!
03:02Wind it down!
03:03Sorry love, I need to bring my hearse round in a minute.
03:05You're gonna be blocking us in.
03:06Sorry, no worries.
03:08Ah!
03:09You're the young lad from the pub, aren't you?
03:11Yeah.
03:12Erm, I'm his running coach.
03:14Oh!
03:15Do you know, I always liked Steve Ovette.
03:18Yeah.
03:19Not that I didn't like Steve Graham.
03:21I expect you'll be keeping your eye on your Olympics, won't you?
03:24We're the old in the next one.
03:25LA.
03:26LA.
03:27Wow.
03:28You know, I was a triple jumper at school.
03:30Yeah.
03:31That's what they put me down for one sport today.
03:32Hop, step and jump we called it then.
03:34Yeah, speaking of which, I might need to get going.
03:37Yeah.
03:38Right, right.
03:39Yes, no, I shall leave you to it.
03:40And if you wouldn't mind.
03:41Yeah, sorry.
03:42Yeah, thanks love.
03:48This is madness.
03:49What?
03:51Buried safely.
03:52If that front desk was manned last night, they'd have stopped us.
03:54But they didn't.
03:55Names, dates of birth.
03:57I booked a single occupancy.
03:59We'll just get a double next time.
04:04Should we stop?
04:06What?
04:07Don't do this.
04:09You'll meet someone your own age at school.
04:11Oh, because of that?
04:12He didn't notice anything.
04:13There's 300 miles between us now, so...
04:15A hundred and four.
04:16That's two hours and thirty minutes.
04:18No, no, it's too dangerous.
04:19With someone your own age, Will, you won't have to sneak about.
04:21Don't I like you doing this for me?
04:23Will, I will always, always love you.
04:32Oh, so do I end it then?
04:33What, am I ending it?
04:34I don't know, I mean...
04:38Maybe it's for the best.
04:40I thought we were in this together.
04:41We are.
04:42We're.
04:43What happened to your plan?
04:45Will!
04:46Will!
04:47That was perfect.
04:48What was it in aid of?
04:49Oh, well.
04:50Carla's done with me, so...
04:51Thought I'd make myself useful at home.
04:52Hey, you know we could work it off if you're in no rush to get back.
04:54I can't.
04:55George is cracking the whip.
04:56Big day tomorrow.
04:57We're burying a local dignitary.
04:58Councillor Drake.
04:5952 years of service on and off.
05:00Plus, I've got to get the tyres checked on the hearse.
05:02And Kevin's not opened.
05:03Oh, well.
05:04Lucky you, eh?
05:05Being gamefully employed.
05:06Well, don't worry about me, eh?
05:07I'm not.
05:08I'm not.
05:09I'm not.
05:10I'm not.
05:11I'm not.
05:12I'm not.
05:13I'm not.
05:14I'm not.
05:15I'm not.
05:16I'm not.
05:17I'm not.
05:18I'm not.
05:19I'm not.
05:20I'm not.
05:21I'm not.
05:22I'm not.
05:23I'm not.
05:24I'm not.
05:25I'm not.
05:26I'm not.
05:27I'm not.
05:28I'm not.
05:29I'm not.
05:34Oh, could you not have done this?
05:36Hmm?
05:37Oh, yes, sir.
05:38I was about to.
05:39Oh, did he say anything to Brody about Lou?
05:42No.
05:43Unless he's quick to get the upshot, we might not need some.
05:45Is he in?
05:46Oh, what's up?
05:47Oh, here he is, Chief Brody.
05:49Who is Chief Brody, anyway?
05:50He's from Jaws.
05:51What?
05:52Do you know, you were supposed to vacuum and you were supposed to do the dishes.
05:57Joanie's going to be here in an hour. What's the social worker going to think?
06:00It's spotless.
06:02Yeah, it's always spotless.
06:03Yeah, only because I keep on top of it.
06:05I could literally eat my dinner off the floor.
06:09And what, there's like two cups in the sink?
06:13What's so gripping on that thing?
06:16Hmm? Oh, erm, erm, it's tomorrow's team news.
06:19Braithwaite's suspended, so I've got Cunningham and go.
06:27Oh, you're up at least.
06:30I've been up hours.
06:31I heard you nearly lost your car last night.
06:33You should have joined us.
06:36Lucky Sal's a good sport, innit?
06:38How's this?
06:39Yeah, yeah, we're getting there, I think.
06:42So, is that it?
06:44No, that's not it. I've come to tell you I'm coming back to work.
06:47Isn't that a steak?
06:49Kev, there's other things I can do, you know, like office stuff and that.
06:52Knock yourself out.
06:54Well, why aren't we open?
06:55What's the point?
06:57Well, look, hot pot's staying.
07:01They'll be up right if I get rid of that.
07:02Dad's got me designing a new menu and the barman's sticking hot pot in the microwave.
07:05Well, you said you liked it.
07:07Eh, fares.
07:08Got to be better than oysters.
07:09What?
07:10What noise annoys a noyster?
07:12You remember this one?
07:13A noisy noise annoys a noyster.
07:15Isn't that lovely?
07:17Oh, hello.
07:18Finally.
07:19Did Megan drop you?
07:20What?
07:21She don't want to come in and say hello?
07:23She was in a rush.
07:24Will, where are you going?
07:25You've got school.
07:26Is he joking me?
07:28I'll translate.
07:29Yesterday went badly.
07:31He didn't qualify for any finals and whoever this girl is back in Hull, it's definitely over.
07:35Oh.
07:37I'll have to speak to him.
07:39Don't bother yourself.
07:40I'll get to the bottom of this.
07:52What?
07:52I thought you were getting a shower.
07:54You said the brew was ready.
07:55Well, I've just spoken to George.
07:58He's taking the hearse to Mal Bingham on Crimea Street.
08:00Well, one day off won't kill me.
08:02One?
08:03We're not busy.
08:04Well, we're not going to be busy at all at this rate, are we?
08:06There should be three of us over there.
08:08Four.
08:09Yeah, but there isn't, is there?
08:10And until I'm back on my feet, your last man's standing.
08:13My kids are literally relying on you.
08:15Oh, guilt trip.
08:16Yes, guilt trip, if that's what it takes.
08:18You're getting your sick pay.
08:20And I tell you every day how grateful I am.
08:22Practically wiping us out.
08:24But why did you get rid of Brodie then?
08:26He seemed keen.
08:26Who's clueless?
08:28And who's got time to train him up?
08:31What did Sally and Tim have to say about that?
08:33It's none of their business.
08:35Right, well, I know all these jobs to do over there.
08:37I know that for a fact there's the timing belt on the Fiat, there's the bumper on the Super.
08:40They can wait.
08:41People need the cars back, Kev, so they can get on with their lives.
08:44I'm not in the mood.
08:45You might not be in the mood now.
08:46But get a shower, get the shutters open over there, get the radio on.
08:49You're going to start to feel like your normal self again.
08:51No, that's easy for you to see.
08:53Sitting in that thing, barking out orders.
08:57Well, you wouldn't exactly say I'm barking out orders, would you?
09:03Has the load been in touch?
09:04No, not since the other day.
09:06Useless.
09:08Look, until I'm out of this mess, I can't do any proper work.
09:10You know that.
09:11Oh, just get out, will you?
09:12So just meet me halfway.
09:13Oh, see to that bumper yourself if it's that urgent.
09:16I'm going back to bed.
09:22Oh!
09:22How far away is that?
09:25104 miles.
09:26Two hours, 13 minutes.
09:28Oh!
09:29Hey, do you know the dress school's there from home?
09:31I was dropping one of them off.
09:33Will, their middle child.
09:34Oh, yeah, the runner!
09:37Hey, I want him to pal up with my stepson, Josie.
09:40He goes to Oak Hill.
09:41It's a private school.
09:43I work in the pub and all.
09:44Hey, do you know what I was saying to my husband last night?
09:46I've got a stepdad, stepson, stepbrother, stepsister.
09:50Do you know what the only thing I haven't got is?
09:52A stepladder?
09:54Yeah.
09:55How did you know?
09:57Lucky guess.
09:59Well, you're dead smart, you.
10:00I bet you see all the punchlines coming.
10:02Ah, not everyone.
10:04Nice talking to you.
10:05Yeah.
10:06Take care.
10:07Take care.
10:17Megan.
10:17Thanks for bringing them all this way.
10:39No worries.
10:41How was he?
10:43Eva said he was down on himself.
10:45Came home with a face like thunder and then stormed off again.
10:48It was a mixed air.
10:50He's inherited your high standards for better or for worse.
10:53We couldn't find his results on late.
10:57I don't think they uploaded him for some reason.
11:00He'll miss you.
11:02Coach is a ten a penny.
11:04Turns out they're not.
11:05We'll find someone else.
11:08No, no, no, no.
11:09No, really, put it away.
11:11Take it.
11:12No.
11:12I'll stand here all day.
11:18Listen, has he said anything to you?
11:20About what?
11:21Well, I know he trusts you.
11:23He doesn't open up to us.
11:25About the move.
11:26About this girl, if there is one.
11:29Er, no.
11:30No, he hasn't said anything to me.
11:31Yeah, everything's all top secret at that age, isn't it?
11:35Drawbridge is up.
11:37Mind you, I'd met Eva before I even mentioned girls to my man.
11:41I wish I hadn't.
11:43Er, I'd better get going before a shower.
11:45That's not much.
11:47Just one of a bite to eat before you set off.
11:50I, I, I, really, I can't.
11:51I'll get Ollie to whip something up for you.
11:53He wants to put oysters on the menu.
11:54No, I just, I don't have time.
11:55Megan, ten minutes just to say thanks for everything you've done.
11:58Come on.
12:02Who's it?
12:03Lauren.
12:04Oh, hiya, Lauren.
12:05I like your hair.
12:06Oh, thanks.
12:07What are you doing carrying that down steps?
12:09Well, it'd be left on that landing until Christmas if it were up to you.
12:13You're joking?
12:13I do plenty of washing.
12:15Me and that machine, we're inseparable.
12:16All right, chill out, you two.
12:17You shouldn't be carrying anything heavier than a spatula.
12:20Oh, what can we do you for, love?
12:22Well, I've got a bag of Frankie's old clothes.
12:24I wanted to see if you wanted them.
12:25Oh, that's so sweet and that's sweet, David.
12:27Yeah, sweet.
12:29Well, I haven't got them with me now because I know some people are superstitious about all that.
12:32Oh, not me.
12:33What, even about accepting stuff before a baby's born?
12:36No, it winds me up then when people say baby rather than the baby.
12:40Oh, shut up, David, you're being rude.
12:42We would love to have them.
12:42Thanks, love.
12:43Okay.
12:44Well, there's different colours in there for you.
12:46You won't know if you're having a boy or a girl yet, so...
12:48No.
12:49We're having a girl.
12:50Wow.
12:50Oh, yeah, he is the superstitious type.
12:53Right.
12:54Well, I best get Adel anyway, but I'll drop him off on my second break, yeah?
12:58Oh, Ben's giving out second breaks now, is he?
13:02Look, David, I know that he pinged you, but he's dead sound.
13:05So's Eva.
13:06The hola.
13:07Well, I'm not surprised to hear that.
13:08She's a good mate of mine.
13:09Bob back later anyway.
13:10We'll be in.
13:11All right.
13:12I'll see you.
13:12Oh.
13:14All right.
13:15See you later.
13:15Thanks, Lauren.
13:23So we're telling strangers it's a girl now?
13:25Lauren isn't a stranger.
13:26Well, she's not family.
13:27Well, she nearly was.
13:29We haven't finished discussing what we're going to do.
13:32Yes, we have.
13:33Shona, don't pretend like this isn't happening.
13:35Yes, Mrs Drake.
13:42No, Mrs Drake.
13:44No, you are absolutely right.
13:46He will be looking like a film star by the time I finish with him.
13:49Yep.
13:50Okay.
13:51Bye-bye, Mrs Drake.
13:52A short lunch, I said.
13:54A short lunch.
13:56There's a few press-ups afterwards.
13:58I don't know if you're being euphemistic, well, neither do I care.
14:01Tomorrow is the closest that this town gets to a state funeral.
14:05The mayor himself's going to be in attendance.
14:07Now, see to them tyres, pick up me good jacket
14:10and polish Councilor Drake's coffin, wood and brass.
14:13You know, this phone hasn't stopped ringing off its flipping cradle.
14:15Everything's in hand, George.
14:17What do we say?
14:19Oh, no, not today, Todd.
14:20Come on, George.
14:21What do we say?
14:24Is it a bird?
14:25Is it a plane?
14:27No, it's super, Todd.
14:29It is indeed.
14:34How big is it?
14:37Small block of flats, eight units.
14:39It's those nice ones around the back of Freshco's.
14:41You know where the blossom falls on the pavement.
14:43And did you approach Pete, or did he contact you?
14:46No, he messaged me yesterday.
14:47Oh, well, I'm just glad I'm not sculpting things.
14:50Yeah, well, work's work, innit?
14:51You got much on?
14:53Oh, mate.
14:53It's embarrassing.
14:55Well, surely you got one or two back on side.
14:56Every builder in town, every property developer,
14:59dropped me like a stone.
15:00I mean, Carla Connor offered me some scraps,
15:02but that's all we know.
15:03You know, fixing leaky taps and folding table under table.
15:06Well, maybe she liked having you around.
15:08Like a Diet Coke had.
15:10Telling you, mate, if things get any worse,
15:12I'm going to have to sell the scaffolding off.
15:14No, mate, you're sat on a go, mate, eh?
15:16That big Meccano set.
15:18Yeah, and then Danielle says,
15:19thank you very much, I'll have that.
15:22Right, well, before you do, I might have an idea.
15:24Yeah?
15:25Well, listen, hold that thought.
15:26Er, sweetheart.
15:30What, me?
15:32The phone.
15:34Oh, and, er, before I come back,
15:36try and find your manners, yeah?
15:37I had our Liam on a beach, don't forget.
15:44Oh, here we go.
15:45Tony Gordon, midwife.
15:47Ain't you know all about your gran when she had Gail?
15:50I don't.
15:52She went into labour in pictures,
15:54watching Gone with the Wind, first time round.
15:57David.
15:58No, the midwife had to come out to her on a bicycle.
16:01They didn't think she was going to get there in time.
16:03Woolly mammoth blocking her own.
16:05Not sure about Stephen.
16:07Poor Uncle Stephen.
16:09He wasn't doing any harm in Audrey's belly.
16:12Well, it was the only place that Oliver was safe.
16:14Poor Uncle Stephen?
16:17Sean will be all right.
16:18She's been there before.
16:19Her firstborn was no fairytale, though.
16:21Is that really necessary?
16:23You brought up Uncle Stephen.
16:24No, I didn't.
16:25She did.
16:26You know, I tried three times.
16:28Couldn't keep any of them out of arms away
16:30for one reason or another.
16:32I've been there.
16:32It's just a flip of a coin, isn't it?
16:36Yeah.
16:38Yeah, you're right.
16:40I mean, you see these people, don't you?
16:42Living in big houses, driving massive cars.
16:45Got loads of kids running around on trampolines.
16:47And I mean, what makes them so special?
16:50Luck, I guess.
16:52Yeah.
16:52Listen, just be nice to Shona.
16:56It's no picnic.
16:58She really needs your support.
16:59I think men can try and understand,
17:01but they never will, not fully.
17:06Who?
17:07Yeah.
17:08I've never been.
17:09Right.
17:11Erm, where's the cornflour?
17:13It's with the plain and the wholemeal.
17:15Oh, er, you might say cornflakes, erm...
17:18I told you she should have messaged me, Sally.
17:22Erm, do you have any paprika?
17:25Yes, with the spices.
17:26Righty.
17:27Gemstone.
17:28Kick up!
17:29Oof!
17:30You not in court?
17:32What?
17:33Why, what's he done now?
17:34Eva only reported you absent for this morning.
17:52Can't be doing without school.
17:55I couldn't be doing with school either.
17:58There wasn't anything they could teach me about life
18:01that I couldn't learn in our building
18:02or on your granddaddy's farm.
18:06I'm sorry about all that.
18:08The other day.
18:09Your little binge.
18:12He seems like a nice enough fella.
18:15Liam?
18:16He's all right.
18:17They'll all be all right once you get to know them.
18:21Just be careful of those young girls
18:23slobbering all over you.
18:25They must think it's their lucky year.
18:27A young buck like you joining their ranks.
18:29I'm not all that.
18:31In a couple of years
18:33you can go back to Hull.
18:37That's if you don't get your scholarship.
18:40Imagine that.
18:42America.
18:43They don't give track and field scholarships away.
18:45At your age
18:46no one has a clue what they want.
18:50I know what I want.
18:52And her name is?
18:56It's not that.
18:57It's just a cry in shame Jane Mansfield
19:02was so intent on coming back here.
19:05But that's what happens
19:07when a man's head is turned.
19:09Everyone has to do what the new squeeze wants.
19:11I know you're not mad on her
19:13but you can't blame her for everything.
19:15I do like her.
19:16It's obvious you don't.
19:19Would I have made all this possible
19:21if I didn't want them to be happy?
19:23I want you all to be happy
19:25especially you.
19:28We know how hard it's been
19:30but in this family
19:32we front up.
19:34Look at what your father had to overcome.
19:37They said he'd never play again
19:38after that business with his shoulder.
19:40Us Driscoll's
19:42we stare trouble in the face.
19:47I know.
19:49Let me tell you a secret about life.
19:52Sometimes
19:52you have to play mean.
19:55Put yourself first.
19:57Don't let anyone else win.
20:04Righto
20:04that's the recycling dump.
20:07Tricia
20:08Yeah
20:10I was just being nosy
20:10I was having a look at her photos.
20:12Seeing what an ex-predator's been up to.
20:14Will you stop calling her that?
20:16She's only a few years older than me
20:18you know she was.
20:19I keep telling you
20:19she worked in the local shop.
20:21They carried me aloft
20:21through the streets of Marlowe's.
20:23I did indeed
20:23celebrating your abuse.
20:25My mum's in court today.
20:26Look we can explain.
20:28You're treating me like Shanice.
20:29Well we wanted to know the outcome first.
20:31I had to learn off kit.
20:32No we don't want to worry yet.
20:34Yeah at least he treats me with respect.
20:35Hey
20:36don't you speak to us like that.
20:39Did you get the shop in?
20:41Oh my
20:41I should have told him straight away.
20:44It was your idea not to.
20:45Fighting with an inmate
20:46I should have been there to support her.
20:48You guys call yourself foster parents
20:49you're a joke.
20:50She's here.
20:54Yeah we tried him with the lad
20:58that lives two doors down
21:00he used to be a footballer.
21:02Will said.
21:02He showed us up.
21:04He didn't show us up.
21:05You're so hard on him.
21:06He didn't even try.
21:08I thought he was going to join a proper club.
21:10There's plenty in Manchester.
21:11The Harriers for a start.
21:12Did he tell you about the alcohol
21:14we had an incident a couple of days ago?
21:15It was two cans of lager.
21:17Honestly.
21:18Wasn't a big deal.
21:19Baby's three years underage.
21:21She's too soft on him.
21:22Damn right I'm too soft on him.
21:23It's me that tore his life up.
21:25I feel guilty babe.
21:26Can't help that.
21:27I should really push off.
21:31Have we even had your lunch?
21:32Tell Ollie I'm alright.
21:34He'll be dressing you a lobster.
21:36So this is good by then?
21:38I suppose it is.
21:39Oh well look.
21:40We're so grateful aren't we Ben?
21:42Honestly.
21:43The effect that you've had on Will.
21:44The positive effect.
21:46I feel like all kids need someone like you in the life.
21:49Damn right.
21:50William's hungry.
21:51Oh.
21:52Keel's surprised.
21:53The kid of Megan's lobster.
21:54What?
21:54Hello again.
22:11I thought you'd be the other side of Harithead services by now.
22:15I can't let it turn straight back round after driving all the way from Leeds.
22:18Not without wetting her whistle at least.
22:20Do you use a whistle with him?
22:22No.
22:22Well you should try.
22:23I thought I'd be using one to get him out of his kip in the morning.
22:26I had to use a block and tackle to get you out of the bed when you were William's age.
22:31He didn't so much sleep as hibernate and as for the snoring.
22:35Alright well I'm sure Megan doesn't want to worry about that.
22:38Anyway how's he performing?
22:40No complaints from me.
22:42Really?
22:42That's not how I heard it.
22:44Good.
22:45In elite sport coaches should be like hard taskmasters.
22:48Compliments should be as common as hands take.
22:50But she's not my coach though is she?
22:52I might as well just quit.
22:54Don't say that.
22:55There'll be loads of good coaches round here.
22:57No that's not what I want.
22:58I don't want to start with someone new.
23:00Just look what happened with James.
23:01It won't work.
23:03Listen mate I get it.
23:05When my first gaffer got sacked I was devastated.
23:08He gave me my debut.
23:08I looked up to him.
23:09But change is part and parcel of sport.
23:12You'll adapt.
23:13You will.
23:13And there's fantastic facilities in Manchester.
23:16Plenty of people I can recommend.
23:17No that's not what I want.
23:19I don't want things to change.
23:20Let's at least discuss it.
23:21Yeah.
23:22I was thinking Megan could hang around and give us some independent feedback on Ollie's tasting menu.
23:27We'll discuss it then.
23:29What do you say?
23:29OK.
23:31Yeah.
23:32Yeah.
23:32That'd be lovely.
23:33Thanks.
23:34Great.
23:35Starving.
23:36Oh it's so good to have you back.
23:38We've really missed you.
23:39I've missed you.
23:40You missed me?
23:41No way.
23:42Shut up.
23:43How have things been?
23:44Yeah.
23:45Yeah they've been fine.
23:46Yeah totally yeah.
23:47Yeah cool.
23:47Yeah.
23:49Things seemed a little fraught when we arrived.
23:51You were shouting.
23:52Got some ice cream in the freezer if you and your sister want to help yourselves.
23:56Go on.
23:57Look if there are problems it would be better for everyone if you tell me.
24:04Shanice has to be the priority here and I can't help unless I have the full picture.
24:08I hate it was nothing.
24:09You seemed pretty upset.
24:11No more than usual.
24:13Well he walks around with his face like a slap backside 24-7.
24:16And I'm amazed he's not got his undercrackers on his head.
24:19All right.
24:20Joanie needs a settled environment.
24:22If there's any issues I need to know about.
24:24Oh no it's just family life.
24:26If you know a storm and a teacup.
24:28Yeah we're all good.
24:29Maybe not the Waltons but who is.
24:32Are they your neighbours?
24:33No just ignore him.
24:35He's showing his age.
24:38Where's my manners?
24:39Can I make you a cup of tea?
24:41Okay.
24:42Oh you've got to love a romper suit.
24:47Yeah.
24:47Press studs in all the right places.
24:49Could do with one of them on a big night.
24:52I'm not even going to investigate that.
24:54Lauren there's some really nice gear in here.
24:56Are you sure you don't want any money for it?
24:57No.
24:58People were dead kind to me after Frankie were born.
25:00I'm just glad you could make use of it.
25:02Yeah fingers crossed.
25:05Right then.
25:06I'd better go pick Frankie up from nursery.
25:09Thanks for this Lauren.
25:10It's dead kind to you.
25:12No worries.
25:14See you later.
25:15Yeah.
25:15See ya.
25:20Sorry about that.
25:21Just slipped out.
25:22It's all right.
25:23I don't think she suspected anything.
25:25And about before?
25:27Just forget it.
25:28It's sooner you told me how you were feeling than bottling it all up.
25:32Well how I'm feeling is useless.
25:34I just wish there was something we could do.
25:36Well you say that.
25:38But I've been doing some research online right.
25:40And I've ordered loads of supplements like vitamin D, omega 3, all that jazz.
25:44I am going to be the healthiest I've ever been.
25:48What's on this chicken like?
25:50Five spice.
25:51Five too many in my book.
25:54Agreed.
25:54If it ain't broke don't fix it.
25:56That's my motto in the kitchen.
25:59Ignore him.
25:59It's smashing.
26:01We're just being candid here.
26:03That is the whole point of the exercise isn't it?
26:06And I don't want my head blown off me by a chicken drumstick.
26:09All right.
26:09Well for future reference what would you prefer?
26:12These fajita fries are incredible.
26:16I'd be down to more need of them if I wasn't spoken for.
26:18I doubt many chips have featured in love triangles.
26:21But sure there's always a first time for everything.
26:23Well you'd know.
26:25You've had a chip on your shoulder long enough.
26:27Look I'm sure Megan doesn't need to hear our good natured family banter.
26:31What do you make of the food love?
26:32It's really nice.
26:33Do I get an opinion of you at all?
26:36Is that right I suppose?
26:39I know his problem.
26:39He's missing his girlfriend already.
26:40Don't, don't go there.
26:42So there is someone.
26:43I knew it.
26:45Oh come on.
26:46Tell me everything.
26:47No detail too small.
26:49There's nothing to say.
26:50She dumped me.
26:53Oh sorry mate.
26:56I had no idea.
26:57Neither did I.
26:58Until this morning.
27:00If she's in Hull I'm sure it's only because of the practicalities.
27:03Yeah exactly.
27:05You should have said something love.
27:0615 year old boys don't do confessionals.
27:09They pick themselves up.
27:10They dust themselves off.
27:12Just like he will.
27:13Yes.
27:14But sometimes it is good to talk.
27:16The surest way for a lad to get over a girl is to move on to the next one.
27:20And he will have no shortage of offers.
27:23She must be doolally splitting up with you.
27:26No don't diss her.
27:27She was amazing.
27:28And I was a lucky guy.
27:30It was no one's fault.
27:31It was just the move.
27:36Well erm.
27:37I mean look.
27:38It is probably for the best.
27:40Long distance relationships never really work do they?
27:42Well you don't know until you've tried it.
27:45Maybe you should give us a go.
27:47Look erm.
27:48I can't help but feel I'm intruding.
27:50So erm.
27:50Thank you for the food.
27:51No.
27:52No you don't need to.
27:53I really ought to be off.
27:55Well done you two.
27:58Well done.
28:12Got to be joking me.
28:13I've got it.
28:15I was kidding.
28:16When I said you should open up this morning.
28:19Well you weren't going to do it were you?
28:20I was going to do it now.
28:21Only because I've been pecking your head.
28:23And besides it's gone three.
28:25This carriage can't survive on two hours a day.
28:27I'm not normally this late.
28:28No you aren't normally late.
28:30That's if you turn up and talk.
28:31This can't carry on Kev.
28:32Yeah.
28:33And you can't repair motors in a wheelchair.
28:36Not in this place anyway.
28:37Well unless you pull your finger out.
28:39I'm the only game in town aren't I?
28:40I don't get it.
28:43We've always stepped up for each other me and you.
28:45That is the whole point of a partnership.
28:47Knowing that there's somebody else there to pick up the slack when you need them to.
28:49Well I mean I won't I.
28:51No Kev.
28:52You're not.
28:53I don't know where you are.
28:54You forgot your bag.
29:06No I didn't.
29:07Sorry?
29:10I left it so you could bring it to me.
29:12You got us playing fetch now.
29:14I'm not a golden retriever.
29:15I wanted to talk.
29:20Well I thought you'd said everything you wanted to say.
29:23So did I but I was wrong about everything.
29:28I don't wonder.
29:33A boy would have blown everything sky high just then.
29:36But instead a man took things on the chin even though it was breaking his heart.
29:43A man showed me he doesn't just have a childish crush and that he really loves me.
29:54I can't walk away from that.
29:56So you've changed your mind?
30:01You catch on quick.
30:03But what do we do?
30:05How can we?
30:08We'll find a way.
30:11We have to.
30:13What are you having?
30:14A deep pan please.
30:15Can we have garlic dough balls as well?
30:17And a bottle of pot.
30:18Yeah that's fine girls.
30:19Well it's a good job I'm collecting because I think he'd struggle on his moped with this
30:23lot wouldn't he?
30:23Well we're pushing the boat out and we've got something to celebrate.
30:26We're one big happy family again.
30:28So you keep saying?
30:30Right I better get going.
30:31Probably take him a while to make this much dough.
30:33I'll come with you.
30:34What to the pizza place?
30:36Where have you got them to go to?
30:37To my car.
30:38Oh.
30:38Please remember what I said.
30:42Honesty is the key to making this work.
30:45I'll be in touch.
30:46Yeah.
30:46There's no rush but obviously it's lovely to hear from you but hopefully there won't be
30:51any problems.
30:53Hopefully.
30:53Bye girls.
30:55Bye.
31:04You don't have to pretend.
31:05I know you're arguing about me when we walk through the door.
31:08No.
31:08I don't blame you.
31:10I won't want me living here after all the trouble I cause.
31:13But I will see you.
31:14Yes.
31:15Just listen to your sister.
31:17What you've just said isn't true.
31:18We really are one big happy family again.
31:23Well.
31:24Not quite.
31:27Don't do this now.
31:29You've got to do it sometimes Ali.
31:39It's just a turn of frears.
31:41And I really do love chips.
31:47You got a minute?
31:48Yeah.
31:48Of course we've got.
31:49You OK?
31:50I want to go back to Hull.
31:52Well.
31:52I would say that's a sentiment I don't hear every day.
31:55But I've heard nothing but from you lately.
31:57Dad.
31:57I'm serious.
31:58Is this about that girl?
32:00No.
32:00I told you I need to be there for my athletics.
32:03Son.
32:04Our lives are here now.
32:05This is our home.
32:07Even if it means me giving up on running.
32:09You don't have to give up on your running.
32:10I might as well.
32:11You've seen my progress.
32:13I went from not even winning cross country at school to being county standard.
32:18Well I have to admit you have come on leaps and bounds under me again.
32:22It's just not practical.
32:23It can be.
32:24I can go back to my old school.
32:26Doss down at Jono's.
32:27And then come back home for the weekends.
32:29It's not like I want to leave you guys.
32:31But it's the only way.
32:33Would you at least consider it?
32:34Please.
32:35All right.
32:37I'll think about it.
32:41That first pint won't even touch the side.
32:43Yeah well don't make it too quick because it'll be your last one and all.
32:46You what?
32:47Big day tomorrow eh?
32:48Need to bring our A game.
32:49All right dad.
32:51Hey yeah.
32:52How are your days?
32:53Busy eh?
32:54Not busier than mine that's for sure eh?
32:56It'll pick up.
32:57Well it's erm.
32:59Look it might already have done.
33:00Gary's doing another job with Pete.
33:03As in Pete Pete?
33:05Yeah look it is money's as good as anyone's.
33:07Yeah so the er scaffolding film he was going to use has gone bump.
33:10So I thought I could smooth things over.
33:12Get him the gig.
33:13That's very kind of you Gary but I'd rather he didn't.
33:15We can't afford to be fussy.
33:16After what happened last time I wouldn't feel comfortable with it.
33:19I'm sorry.
33:19I thought it was er just an idea.
33:24What's up Gary?
33:25Yes mate.
33:26Like I said don't you drink that all at once.
33:29Once it's gone it's home for an early night.
33:31And I don't mean the fun kind either mister.
33:33Oh no we've got a prestige internment tomorrow.
33:36So we need young todicles here to be on tip top form.
33:39Isn't that right son?
33:40Yes George.
33:42Cheers fellas.
33:44Cheers boys.
33:45Yes George.
33:48Mmm.
33:49Very nice.
33:51We're good.
33:52Ollie's holding the fort.
33:53Well that's the least of my worries.
33:55Will cannot move to the other side of the country on his own at his age.
33:59It's two and a half hour stops.
34:00Well you've changed your tune.
34:03I'm not keen on the idea.
34:05But I'm willing to keep an open mind.
34:08When I was his age I had toured France, Australia and South Africa with junior teams.
34:13Yes but this isn't a tour.
34:14He'd be living there.
34:15It could be the making of him.
34:16Give him a sense of independence.
34:18Besides we know enough people that I'll look out for him.
34:22Childhood is so short as it is.
34:24I feel like he should be here with us.
34:26Yeah but if we say no, who's to say he won't run away again?
34:31Honestly, I think I would rather take that risk.
34:34I cannot get on board with Will living in Hull on his own.
34:38Don't worry.
34:39You won't have to.
34:41You'll send my grandson away over my dead body.
34:44What kind of father kicks his own son out of house and home?
35:06First off, I'm not kicking him out.
35:07He wants to go.
35:09And how is it any different from boarding school apart from his home every weekend?
35:12We're not from the class of people that are happy to farm out their own kids.
35:16She's got a pound.
35:16When did you two start singing from the same hymn sheet?
35:21Will's place is with his family.
35:23He's just a kid.
35:25And he'll be a man soon enough.
35:27This is the first step.
35:28You know, you two.
35:30You two spoil him rotten.
35:31It'll do him good to stand on his own two feet.
35:33It's more than you'll be doing in a mess.
35:35You're not going to bully me on this one, Ma.
35:38He's my son.
35:39And I think he's mature enough to make this decision.
35:42So as long as we can make his living arrangements work, it's his choice.
35:47And way to give Ollie a hand.
35:51Times like this.
35:52I think he took too many knocks on the rugby field.
35:55He's not thinking straight.
35:57Well, whether he is or he isn't, you know what he's like when he dicks his heels in.
36:01Better than anyone alive.
36:02We have got to fix this before it's too late.
36:07You in?
36:08All the way.
36:15Are you going to order anything or are you just enjoying the ambience?
36:18Come again?
36:20What can I get you?
36:22Oh, now I'm waiting for someone.
36:24Right, well, I hope you order someone when they arrive because we're not a drop-in centre, you know.
36:27We'll have some samosas and a couple of OJs, please.
36:31Right.
36:32You all right?
36:38Oh, go on.
36:39How did your mum get on?
36:42Do you not know?
36:43Well, we don't get a live feed from this cause.
36:45It's not the final score.
36:48She got four months added on.
36:51Right, so what's the face for?
36:54She gave that cellmate of hers a right good pasting.
36:56Could have been a lot worse than four months, mate.
36:59It's not that.
37:00Tim and Sally have no right trying to hide it from me.
37:02Like, why would they do that?
37:04You tell me, Brody.
37:06What?
37:07Why do you think they did that?
37:10Seriously.
37:11What's in it for them?
37:12Well, I suppose, I suppose, they thought it might upset us, but they still should have told me.
37:21Right, so what you're saying is they made a misjudgment, but it came from a good place.
37:26It's not exactly crime of the century, is it, pal?
37:31Right, boys, that's me done.
37:33Oh, come on, Cocker, stay for the rest.
37:34No, I'll get enough earache as it is.
37:36If we had a dog, my dinner would be in it, but I know I'd have a kipping in his house tonight.
37:39Have a good one.
37:40All right.
37:41So long.
37:41See you.
37:42You know, we should probably go too.
37:43Tomorrow, Eddie, two drinks over, George's limit.
37:46George's limit?
37:47Oh, come on, I know he was knocking off your mum, but that'll make him your dad.
37:51Look, he feels like family, and he's still my boss.
37:54Tomorrow's a big deal for him.
37:55I wish tomorrow would be a big deal for me.
37:57Couldn't look the same as today.
37:59It won't be forever.
38:00Maybe, maybe not.
38:02Oh, come on, I've been in the flat all day.
38:03I can't face going back.
38:04Just stay for one more, please.
38:06Go on, but one more, all right, and I mean it.
38:09Okay.
38:10Hey.
38:11Can I get you, Chief?
38:12Can I have two vodka tonics, please, and make one of them a double?
38:19I shouldn't have sounded off before.
38:22I'm sorry.
38:22I know you're going through a tough time, mate, but letting the business go down the pan, that's not going to help, is it?
38:28I know.
38:29But knowing isn't enough.
38:32It isn't what you think, it's what you feel.
38:35You wouldn't understand.
38:37I want to.
38:39I want to help, but you're going to have to let me know what's going on, Kev.
38:50Everything all right?
38:51Yeah, yeah, it's just first wanting to know where I am.
38:53We should go home.
38:55No, this is more important.
38:57No, nothing's more important than family.
38:59I've got to go myself anyway, so come on, I'll push you.
39:13I thought they'd shut Weatherfield Library.
39:17Everything all right?
39:18Yeah, it's just been a full-on day.
39:20Isn't it just?
39:22There's some pizza in the fridge, you'll be hungry.
39:25Oh, no, I've eaten so.
39:26Look, I wanted to say sorry.
39:33Oh, Brady, you were entitled to be upset.
39:36No, I wasn't.
39:37I'm not entitled to any of this.
39:41Roof over my head, pizza in the fridge, and...
39:45..you protecting us about my mum.
39:49Don't be daft.
39:50I made a promise to your mum, and I'm happy to keep it.
39:53Yeah, we built that.
39:54It just takes time getting used to someone giving a toss.
40:02But I am dead grateful.
40:05We all are.
40:08Thanks.
40:14Well, I wasn't expecting that.
40:15Yeah, well, I'm getting used to the unexpected.
40:19Oh, Sally, you're making something out of nothing.
40:22How is that true?
40:24Even if I adopted your weird perspective and saw Trisha as some sort of ex,
40:29should I be happy that you're pursuing her on social media?
40:33I wasn't... I wasn't... I was just...
40:35What, Tim, what?
40:37Because, to me, it looks like you've got a very unhealthy obsession with the woman who groomed you.
40:43Nobody got groomed, and the only person obsessed is you.
40:45Obsessed with something that never happened.
40:47Where are you going? You can't run away.
40:51Watch me.
40:55The last thing I want is to see less of you.
40:58You're a big part of this family.
40:59And I still will be. I'll be back every weekend.
41:03You better be.
41:05I can go.
41:06As long as we can sort your living arrangements.
41:08I'd hate to see your potential go to waste because of a decision I made.
41:11Oh, thanks, Dad.
41:16Sorry to interrupt a lovely father some moment, but we've got a bit of news.
41:22So have we.
41:23I've decided that...
41:24You're deciding nothing.
41:26You might have been happy to abandon Will, but we weren't.
41:30I called Megan, we had a few drinks, and we found a solution.
41:35What kind of solution?
41:38Your grands pay me to come over here two days a week.
41:41For some one-on-one training sessions.
41:43Right.
41:44Money is no object when it comes to my family's happiness.
41:48I'm just so glad to see the smile back on your face.
41:58God, I can't actually...
42:00I can't get these undone.
42:03That's because it's a zip.
42:05Eh?
42:06You're left-hapus, come here.
42:07Oh, yeah.
42:09Zip.
42:11You won't expect me to undress you.
42:17You brought this on yourself.
42:20You're going to feel rotten tomorrow morning.
42:23Oh, yeah.
42:25That's the ticket.
42:27You're locked.
42:47You're locked.
42:48You're locked.
42:49You're locked.
42:49All right.
43:16All right.
43:19That was too close for comfort.
43:24Sorry, I got carried away.
43:26Don't apologise.
43:28Just make sure you're in good shape for next week,
43:31cos I am really going to put you through your paces.
43:33Is that so?
43:34You can count on it.
43:36Don't think things could have worked out any better, do you?
43:39No.
43:40I can definitely feel a personal best coming on.
43:43No.
43:44No.
43:45No.
43:46No.
43:47No.
43:48No.
43:49No.
43:50No.
43:54No.
43:55No.
43:57No.
