06:24keep an eye on Cal I will yes Sarah you serious they're at the factory now union man or league man I
06:49played union for a few years you know I think it was will carling who first drew me to the 15 man
06:55game let me guess um fly half tight head prop ah yes yes I I see that now it's the um it's the thighs
07:07you my friend are an inspiration to household household this letter writing to prisoners a selfless act
07:18that I can only imagine brings untold joy to its recipients well not entirely selfless I find the process
07:24therapeutic when I was uh in prison the occasional letter came as a much needed metaphorical escape from
07:34four walls briny Pritchard excuse me she sat next to me at primary school oh she was lovely mousy hair
07:42bright blue eyes rosy cheeks I think I can safely say she was the first person to set my heart aflutter
07:48not sure why you're telling me this her parents emigrated to Australia they took briny with them
07:54of course still not sure we became pen pals ah oh yeah despite being on opposite sides of the planet
08:01we uh managed to write to each other at least once a month we exchanged letters for I don't know maybe
08:0620 years that's so romantic indeed I dared to dream that we might meet again one day but um
08:14our correspondence eventually faded and died oh dear yeah sad story yeah but those letters so emotional
08:22so full of longing but uh you won't have to worry about that writing to those
08:28roughy tufty criminals well I'm also corresponding with one of the prisoners mothers oh how interesting
08:36this is nonsense the old thing I know I've tried to tell her but I don't need this especially today
08:41I've got stuff to do I understand that but I'm afraid fraud is a serious matter and we have to follow
08:46the procedure seriously guys inside oh it's coffee break seriously inside oh all right
08:53spoiled sport sorry it's not your fault what's going on well your colleague here seems to think
08:59that there's been a report of fraudulent activity in my factory what kind of fraud are we talking
09:03about well that's what I asked and she won't tell me I've been asked to take mrs. Connor in for
09:07questioning who made the report that's what I want to know I can't say well I can it's obvious isn't it
09:12well who would want to spoil our special day can you think of anybody I think you should just go
09:17with the police officer sure it won't take long excuse me can you move that please no Kurt stay there
09:24I only take instructions from mrs. Connor tell him to move the van what if I don't are you going to arrest me

10:45sorted at the station I just want to know who's been accusing me of fraud then I can get it cleared
10:49up in two seconds let's get you in the car you know don't you go on bring it ask her it's ridiculous
10:55I swear I'm gonna throttle it I can do it I'm not too thank you
11:00hello Carla hello I'm beginning to think I know a few too many coppers we go everywhere
11:28yeah you might have to wait a bit PC Davis is busy she won't be too long well I'll save her the time it was Becky
11:35what's Becky who's been making these allegations up against me and I'll tell you for why you know
11:40right go on then
11:43what because she thinks that Lisa prefers tulips to roses
11:49so this is about Lisa's taste in floristure
11:52I know I know that sounds stupid and doesn't make any sense but it went something like this
11:56this morning I've made breakfast got flowers I'd arrange a lovely day out for us together
12:01okay to spend together with spa and shopping and favorite restaurant and then in walks the
12:07not so dead ex and she overhears all this and all of a sudden I'm in a police car and I end up here
12:12right I see well I mean let's drop this charade let me go
12:17these are serious allegations Carla but she's made them all up I've seen the paperwork they're pretty
12:23detailed now would you say Becky's a financial expert well I don't know do I she faked her own
12:28death she probably capable of everything you got a minute yeah sure um do you want a tea or coffee
12:41or anything no I want to get out of here
12:43how was football camp what's it to you
12:59as your dad said anything
13:02look Jack I know things are difficult but
13:06I still really care about you
13:09hang on how come you're not at school are you skiving
13:12I saw Hope earlier I think they've got like an inset day
13:16just leave me alone okay I don't care about you and I don't want to talk to you
13:20hey I know you're having a tough time but we both know that Abby loves you
13:33and I'm not sure what you just said he's helping either of you eh
13:36right about he asked me to pop in said he might have a job for us
13:42I'm afraid not but we'll be back soon
13:44I'm so sorry
13:48issues with the tram slight delay but inconvenient nonetheless
13:53oh Ed said that you may have a job for him
13:55oh yes yes I'm thinking of starting a small
13:58a book exchange scheme here in the cafe and I wonder if you might construct me a
14:04a library box
14:06oh you know Roy that was a lovely idea now
14:08yeah I think I can manage that no problem
14:10if you could give me an idea as to the price
14:13well actually I think I've got something to do the job with a bit of upcycling
14:16well obviously I'll pay you for your labour
14:19do you know what Roy see it is my contribution to an excellent community idea
14:23look Kit I know we should probably be careful what we're saying here but I reckon Costello
14:31could have helped Becky set this whole thing up
14:33you know I don't trust either of them
14:34you can go
14:35what
14:36we're done
14:38what about the allegations
14:39I thought you made plans with Lisa
14:41I want to know why one minute you're ready to give me the third degree
14:44and the next minute it's all disappeared in a puff of smoke
14:46Carla just go and have a nice time
14:48it was Becky wasn't it
14:50I can't say
14:52I tell you what

19:12er
19:15orange and another pint please
19:16look I'm sorry if I was a bit chippy earlier
19:23oh don't be daft
19:24I've had worse
19:25hey
19:27she trying to nip my drink
19:28oh shut up Tracy
19:30I ain't gonna hear your drink
19:31I'm not judging
19:32addiction is a terrible disease
19:34it's easy to fall off the wagon
19:36are you two friends?
19:38honestly
19:38I never know
19:39oh she loves me really
19:42right do me a favour
19:43just keep your distance alright?
19:45I like banter as much as you
19:46but not today
19:47well
19:48that's you told
19:50oh dear Swain
19:54I thought you'd be relaxing in a spa somewhere
19:56hmm
19:58yeah I should be
19:59look
20:00we all know Carla hasn't been involved in any wrongdoing
20:02and I don't believe you have enough evidence to want holding her
20:05so I think
20:05she's been released
20:06right
20:08so where is she then?
20:11oh we thought she was with you
20:12she was pretty mad when she left
20:14threatening to sort out your ex
20:16which would be a shame
20:17as a complaint came from an ex-client of Underworld
20:20Eli Merton
20:21apparently accused one of her workers of sexual harassment
20:25Carla retaliated by spreading rumours about him
20:28and this is his way of getting back at her
20:30and does she know this?
20:33I'm afraid not
20:34don't stir it
20:38I don't think that pair need my help
20:41I just don't want to miss it if they kick off
20:43his name was Morgan
20:45Jack Russell
20:46half blind
20:4713 years old
20:49limping on three paws
20:50and still attacked every dog he saw
20:51dog on dog reactivity
20:53some dogs are just busted for a fight
20:55most often
20:56they're not being properly socialised
20:57you know what
20:58you could be really good at this
20:59you know
20:59I know we've had a rough time lately
21:02but
21:03let's not forget how exciting it was before
21:05I should stop beating myself
21:07but the problem is
21:08I'm dead good at it
21:10you deserve to be happy
21:11we both do
21:13I know what I said yesterday
21:16but I will never give up on Alfie
21:19oh that's a shame
21:21you'd be so much better off without you
21:24what did you just say?
21:26nothing
21:26why are you even listening to our conversation?
21:31get a life
21:32wind your neck in Tracy
21:33look I just think that your boyfriend
21:36is getting bored of you
21:38banging on about what a tragic life you've got
21:40when the truth is
21:41you brought it all on yourself
21:42don't let her wind you up
21:44no I'm fine
21:45you've got to feel sorry for Kevin

26:13alright well let's see
26:16Kevin hates me
26:19thinks I'm an unfit mother
26:20Jack hates me
26:22and also that's an extra little bonus
26:23I'm out of a job
26:25Carl clearly thinks I'm mad
26:26and I'm starting to believe
26:28I've absolutely no idea what I'm doing
26:29hmm
26:31well

26:34on the bright side

26:48and vegetarian options
26:50hey
26:52you're not like any of the boring wives
26:54around here
26:55at least you've got something about you
26:57well the abbey I used to be friends with did
27:00that is a beautiful bit of craftsmanship that is
27:08are you handy Brian
27:10only in so much as
27:12I live around the corner
27:14right you might have refused payment

27:17no arguments
27:18I'll put them in
27:22what do I get
27:24a free brew

27:29a biscuit
27:30oh
27:30fair dues
27:31right what do you fancy

27:37ooh
27:37shall we throw caution into the wind
27:39and add a baked potato
27:40oh go on then go crazy
27:42so was this your idea then girls
27:44no
27:45not us
27:46a mysterious lady friend of Roy's
27:49lady friend
27:51yeah we were all lady friend
27:53when Roy mentioned it earlier
27:55Roy mentioned about
27:57writing to
27:58some lad in prison
27:59and his mother got in contact
28:01to say how much she appreciated it
28:03might be her
28:04all done Roy
28:06oh thank you
28:07it's very kind
28:09I'm surprised that you're giving your books away
28:12well Hayley was a big fan of the whodunits
28:15and I've read them all
28:16over the years
28:17when I've been unable to sleep
28:19I realise that since I know
28:22the identity of the perpetrators
28:24there's little point in holding on to them
28:26hmm
28:26makes sense
28:27I'm er
28:28alphabeticising
28:30er
28:30and sorting according to the genre
28:32I suppose
28:33why didn't you mention this lady friend to me
28:38I'm there for the gossip mate
28:47oh look look look look
28:52the back
28:52the back
28:53I thought it said Eva had parted him
28:55she did
28:56it was very dramatic
28:57fingers crossed for the second round
28:59I can't believe we missed the first round
29:00do you know what it's like
29:02it's like a pound shot
29:03Colleen Rooney versus
29:04Rebecca Vardy
29:06are you sure this is a good idea
29:09do you think you're going to get any sympathy at home
29:11with that gorilla Carl
29:13and if I'm the poor sap who showed you
29:16you're going to cry on
29:17I need a drink
29:18I asked you two to leave
29:20Abby really needs to talk
29:22she's going through something right now
29:24all right Tracy
29:25tell the world why don't you
29:27Eva
29:27have you never heard of female solidarity
29:29I have got this
29:31thank you
29:32we're supposed to be charming the locals
29:33not slinging them out
29:35what would you like ladies
29:37aww thank you Maggie
29:38you're a real breath of fresh air
29:41aww do you know what
29:42I'm going on my break
29:43sorry about that
29:46she's not a people person
29:48I'll bring your drinks over
29:50great
29:51er red wine and
29:52an alaban orange
29:53thanks
29:54thanks
29:54go on
29:55well that was a bit of a let down wasn't it
30:00well we already had Carla carted off by the police
30:03what more action do you need
30:04I need all I can get these days
30:06Carla said it was a made up report
30:08I don't know what's going on with her these days
30:09she hardly comes into work at all
30:11yeah and when she does she can't make a decision
30:13honestly you'd be glad you're in packing
30:14people think it's dead simple
30:16but there's seven different types of sticky tape for a start
30:18it's a minefield
30:19what if he does try and go through with it
30:25do you seriously think that social services are going to give custody of Alfie to Kevin
30:30from what I've heard
30:32he's turned number 13 into some sort of poker den
30:35what's Alfie going to do
30:36deal out the cards wearing a little visor
30:38yeah but with my past
30:40there could be a chance that the courts could side with him
30:43oh pull yourself together
30:45Alfie isn't even Kevin's kid
30:48trust me
30:49all of this is because he's hurting
30:51that's all
30:52I hope so
30:53if I lost Alfie I really would have nothing left to live for
30:57what's all this about you doing a half marathon
31:05well it's just something me and James decided on our run today
31:08why
31:08you look very pally in this photo
31:10not as pally as you and Pete were yesterday
31:15right so that's what this is about
31:19it's just a run Todd
31:20I dare you weekend
31:21get over yourself
31:22right I'm going to go and get dressed
31:24thanks for coming
31:33yeah well the highlight of my day so far
31:35has been Tracy and Abby's scrapping at the pub
31:38so I'm hoping you can beat that
31:39sorry I missed it
31:40couldn't my day get any worse
31:41using humour as a deflection
31:43noted
31:44you were more fun before you had therapy you know
31:47you alright
31:48yeah I need it
31:49just a coffee for me please
31:51what's going on over there
31:53you've put Jack Kerouac's on the road in the travel station
31:58it's about travel
32:00it's a novel
32:02based on his own travels
32:06with fictionalised characters
32:08I thought it'd keep him busy but it's already more trouble than it's worth
32:11hey
32:12if you two aren't going to play nicely
32:15I'll have to take your toys off you
32:17books are not toys Nina
32:18I'm just trying to inject a bit of levity into the situation Roy
32:21oh
32:22oh right
32:24unnoted
32:25so I was convinced it was Becky and Ian's rubbing it right
32:31and Lisa comes in
32:32sees me
32:34sees her
32:35and then
32:35who looks like the look case
32:37and where's Lisa now?
32:38well that's just it
32:39Becky
32:40played the blind
32:41I mean she came over all reasonable
32:42and I just looked like Uma Thurman in Kill Bill didn't I
32:46so
32:46she went off
32:48Lisa folder
32:49well to be fair
32:49it wasn't Becky who made the fraud report
32:51which
32:53kind of does make you look like the unreasonable one
32:57she will have had something to do with it
32:58I'm being gaslit Ryan
33:00maybe
33:01what do you mean?
33:02well thanks for the support
33:03no right
33:04okay if it is this Eli
33:05then
33:06maybe she's just taking advantage of it
33:08I mean she's definitely manipulating you either way
33:10thank you
33:11but
33:11okay after my acid attack
33:13I was convinced that
33:15when people were looking at me
33:16they were looking at me scars
33:17right
33:18then after a little bit
33:19I realised
33:20you know
33:21maybe they're not looking at me scars
33:23maybe that's just because that's what I was focused on
33:25maybe they're looking at me for another reason
33:27maybe they fancy me
33:28you can help
33:29I thought you were mum one of those
33:32boomer shopping spa day things
33:34just to change your plan
33:36what are you up to?
33:38we could stretch for lunch if you want
33:39I was going to go into town to get some new trainers
33:41the soul's come away from this one
33:43but I am skint as a pair
33:45oh well played
33:51it's because I'm a favourite child

34:01what do you think it's doing to Betsy's head eh
34:06all this
34:07especially with that mum
34:09in her ear all the time
34:10sounds to me like you're playing right into Becky's hand
34:13she just makes me so mad Ryan
34:15honestly it's just sniffing around Lisa all the time
34:20with that smug stupid little face
34:21and her face is falling for it
34:23Lisa loves you
34:24Carla
34:25Lisa's going to choose you
34:27every time
34:28where is she then?
34:44been looking for you everywhere
34:46you're transferring your phone you know
34:51you're a copper
34:52didn't want to make it too easy for you
34:55been looking at those photos
34:58from that holiday we had in Istanbul
35:01Becky this has got to stop
35:04what me loving you
35:05all of it
35:07housekeeper's day off
35:36have you come to kick off about Abbey?
35:39no actually
35:40I've come to fight her corner
35:42she's really upset
35:44she burst into tears after you stormed off
35:47now
35:48sit down
35:49no I won't tell

35:57and I know we're not exactly
35:58busy mates or out
36:00but you're not a cruel person
36:02she's told me you're threatening
36:04to take Alfie off her
36:06I was just trying to
36:07shock her into coming to her senses
36:10sorting herself out
36:12gallivanting with Carl
36:13ignoring calls from the nursery
36:15what and you thought threatening to take a kid away
36:18was the best way to go about it
36:19well someone's got to get through to her
36:21probably not that way
36:22probably not
36:23you've seen the state of this place
36:25I can barely look after myself these days
36:27let alone a toddler
36:29I could have easily kicked off
36:32when Carla went for me
36:33it reported her
36:34I know
36:35is she always like that
36:36firing pot shots at random people
36:38flying off the handle
36:39I think when we're being stalked
36:41you think that's what I'm doing
36:45stalking you
36:47well whatever it is
36:48it's got to stop
36:49wait Becky

41:44I know I thought you'd be mad at me because I went off at her but
41:48I don't know
