06:27hold on now yes Sarah
06:37are you serious they're at the factory now union man or league man I played union for a few years
06:51you know I think it was Will Carling who first drew me to the 15 man game let me guess um
06:58fly half tight head prop ah yes yes I I see that now it's the um it's the thighs
07:07bye you my friend are an inspiration to household household this letter writing to prisoners a selfless
07:18act that I can only imagine brings untold joy to its recipients not entirely selfless I find the
07:24process therapeutic when I was uh in prison the occasional letter came as a much needed metaphorical
07:33escape from four walls briny Pritchard excuse me she sat next to me at primary school oh she was
07:41lovely mousy hair bright blue eyes rosy cheeks I think I can safely say she was the first person
07:47to set my heart aflutter I'm not sure why you're telling me this her parents emigrated to Australia
07:52they took briny with them of course still not sure we became pen pals ah oh yeah despite being on
08:00opposite sides of the planet we uh managed to write to each other at least once a month we exchanged letters
08:05for I don't know maybe 20 years that's so romantic indeed I dared to dream that we might meet again
08:13one day but um our correspondence eventually faded and died oh dear yeah sad story yeah but those letters
08:21so emotional so full of longing but uh you won't have to worry about that writing to those
08:29roughy 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 I don't need this especially today I've
08:41got stuff to do I understand that but I'm afraid fraud is a serious matter and we have to follow
08:46procedure seriously guys inside oh it's coffee break seriously inside oh all right spoiled sport
08:54sorry it's not your fault what's going on well your colleague here seems to think that there's
08:59been a report of fraudulent activity in my factory what kind of what are we talking about well that's
09:04what I asked and she won't tell me I've been asked to take mrs connor in for questioning who made the
09:09report that's what I want to know I can't say well I can it's obvious isn't it well who would want to
09:14spoil our special day can you think of anybody I think you should just go with the police officer
09:18I'm sure it won't take long excuse me can you move that please no Kurt stay there I only take
09:26instructions from mrs connor tell him to move the van what if I don't are you gonna arrest me
09:32just finished just started oh hey oh just started temple run nothing serious off an hour you train
09:50for the Weatherfield off when's that January next year they put on a 5k a 10k and a half man you know
09:57I wouldn't mind that a few marathons and a few halves back in the day I can help you set up a
10:02training plan if you want yeah yeah do you know it sounds good I tell you what give me five minutes

10:52you know don't you go on bring it ask her it's ridiculous I swear I'm gonna throttle it I can do it
10:58not to thank you
11:00hello Carla hello I'm beginning to think I know a few too many coppers
11:27we go everywhere you might have to wait a bit PC Davis is busy she won't be too long
11:33well I'll save her the time it was Becky what's Becky who's been making these allegations up against
11:38me and I'll tell you for why you know right go on then
11:44what because she thinks that Lisa prefers tulips to roses so this is about Lisa's taste in
11:52floristry I know I know that sounds stupid and doesn't make any sense but it went something like
11:56this this morning I've made breakfast got her flowers I'd arrange a lovely day out for us
12:01together okay to spend together with spa and shopping and favorite restaurant and then
12:05in walks the not so dead ex and she overhears all this and all of a sudden I'm in a police car and I
12:12end up here right I see well I mean let's drop this charade let me go these are serious allegations
12:20Carla but she's made them all up I've seen the paperwork they're pretty detailed
12:24now would you say Becky's a financial expert well I don't know do I she faked her own death
12:29she's probably capable of everything
12:31you got a minute yeah sure
12:36um do you want a tea or coffee or anything like that no I want to get out of here
12:43how was football camp what's it to you
12:59has your dad said anything look Jack I know things are difficult but I still really care about you
13:09hang on how come you're not at school are you skiving I saw hope earlier I think they've got like
13:16an insect day please leave me alone okay I don't care about you 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 and I'm not sure what
13:34you just said he's helping either of you eh right about he asked me to pop in said he might have a job
13:42for us I'm afraid not but I'll be back soon oh I'm so sorry issues with the tram slight delay but
13:51inconvenient nonetheless no Ed said that you may have a job for him oh yes yes I'm thinking of starting a
13:58a small a book exchange scheme here in the cafe and I wonder if you might construct me a
14:04a library box oh you know Roy that was a lovely idea that yeah I think I'll manage that no problem
14:11if you could give me an idea as to the price well actually I think I've got something to do the job
14:15with a bit of upcycling well obviously I'll pay you for your labor do you know what Roy see it is my
14:21contribution to an excellent community idea look Kit I know we should probably be careful what we're
14:30saying here but I reckon Costello could have helped Becky set this whole thing up you know I don't
14:34trust either of them you can go what we're done what about the allegations I thought you made plans
14:40with Lisa I want to know why one minute you're ready to give me the third degree and the next
14:45minute it's all disappeared in a puff of smoke Carla just go and have a nice time it was Becky
14:49won't it I can't say I tell you what she should be the one locked up
14:56of course they understand you can't let Alia down not if she's booked something

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
19:40oh she loves me really
19:42right do me a favour
19:43just keep your distance alright
19:44I like banter as much as you
19:46but not today
19:47well
19:49that's you told
19:50my dear Swain
19:54thought 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
20:03and I don't believe you have enough evidence to warrant holding her
20:05so I think
20:05she's been released
20:06right
20:08so where is she then
20:10oh 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
20:32I'm afraid not
20:34don't stir it
20:38I don't think that bear need my help
20:41I just don't want to miss it if they kick off
20:43his name was Morgan
20:46Jack Russell
20:47half blind
20:4713 years old
20:49limping on three paws
20:50and still attacked every dog he saw
20:52dog on dog reactivity
20:53some dogs are just busted for a fight
20:55most often
20:56they don't be 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 up
21:08problem 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
21:17never
21:18give up on Alfie
21:19oh that's a shame

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
21:43don't let her wind you up
21:44no I'm fine

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
27:08you handy Brian
27:11only in so much as I live around the corner
27:14right you might have refused payment
27:16but you're getting a free lunch
27:17no arguments
27:18I'll put them in
27:21what do I get?
27:25a free brew
27:25I mean it's a sliding scale
27:27how about if I alphabeticise them
27:29a biscuit?
27:30oh fair dues
27:31right what do you fancy?
27:33oh I'll just have a tuna salad
27:36I'm trying to be good
27:37oh shall 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?
27:45no not 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 writing to some 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 Ray
28:06oh thank you
28:08that'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
28:17over 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 makes sense
28:28I'm er
28:28alphabeticising
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 me
28:47oh look look look look
28:52the back
28:52the back
28:53I thought you said Eva had parked them
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
29:01do 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 gonna get any sympathy at home?
29:12with that gorilla Carl?
29:14and if I'm the poor sap who showed you
29:16you're gonna 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
29:24alright Tracey
29:25tell the world why don't you?
29:27Eva
29:27have you never heard of female solidarity?
29:30I 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
29:38thank you Maggie
29:38you're a real breath of fresh air
29:41aww
29:42do 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
29:51red wine and
29:52an alban orange
29:53thanks
29:54well 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
30:10she 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
30:15people think it's dead simple
30:16but there's seven different types of sticky tape for a start
30:19it's a minefield
30:20what 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?
30:31from what I've heard
30:32he's turned number 13 into some sort of poker den
30:35what's Alfie going to do?
30:37deal out the cards wearing a little visor?
30:39yeah 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
30:58what's all this about you doing a half marathon?
31:06well it's just something me and James decided on our run today
31:08why?
31:09is it very pally in this photo?
31:14not as pally as you and Pete were yesterday
31:16right so
31:17that's what this is about
31:19it's just a run Todd
31:20our date weekend

31:22right I'm going to go and get dressed
31:24hey
31:31alright?
31:32thanks for coming
31:33yeah well the highlight of my day so far
31:35has been Tracy and Abby's scrapping out the pool
31:38so I'm hoping you can beat that
31:39sorry I missed it
31:40could my day get any worse?
31:42using humour as a deflection
31:44noted
31:44you were more fun before you had therapy
31:47you know
31:47you alright?
31:49yeah I need it
31:49just a coffee for me please
31:51and
31:51what's going on over there?
31:54you've put Jack Kerouac's on the road
31:57in the travel station
31:58it's about travel
32:00it's a novel
32:02based on his own
32:05travels
32:06with fictionalised characters
32:08I thought it'd keep him busy
32:10but 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
32:18Nina
32:18I'm just trying to inject a bit of levity into the situation Roy
32:21ah
32:23yeah right
32:24unnoted
32:28so I was convinced it was Becky and Angel
32:30I've been it right
32:31and Lisa comes in
32:33sees me
32:34sees her
32:35and then
32:35who looks like the nutcase
32:37and where's Lisa now?
32:39well that's just it
32:39Becky
32:40played the blind
32:41I mean she came over all reasonable
32:43and
32:43I just thought about Uma Thurman
32:45in Kill Bill didn't I
32:46so
32:46she went off
32:48Lisa folder
32:49well to be fair
32:50it wasn't Becky who made the fraud report
32:52which
32:53kind of
32:55does make you look like the unreasonable one
32:57she will have had something to do with it
32:59and being gaslit Ryan
33:00maybe
33:01what do you mean?
33:02oh thanks for the support
33:04no right
33:04okay if it is this Eli
33:06then
33:06maybe she's just taking advantage of it
33:08I mean she's definitely manipulating me 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
33:24that's what I was focused on
33:25maybe they're looking at me for another reason
33:28maybe they fancy me
33:28and you can help
33:30I don't know
33:31I thought you were mum
33:32one of those boomer 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

34:07especially with that mum
34:09in her ear all the time
34:11sounds to me like you're playing right into Becky's hands
34:13she just makes me so mad Ryan
34:16honestly 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
34:26Lisa's going to choose you
34:27every time
34:28and where is she then?
34:44been looking for you everywhere
34:46you could try answering your phone you know
34:52you're a copper
34:53don't want to make it too easy for you
34:55but I'm looking at those photos
34:58from
34:59that holiday we had in Istanbul
35:01Becky this has got to stop

35:06all of it
35:07housekeeper's day off
35:25housekeeper's day off
35:37have you come to kick off about have you?
35:39no actually
35:40I've come to fight her corner
35:42she's really upset
35:44she'd burst into tears after you stormed off
35:47now sit down
35:49no I won't tell her
35:51listen Kev
35:54I've known you my whole life
35:57and I know we're not exactly bezzy mates or out
36:00but you're not a cruel person
36:02she's told me you're threatening to take Alfie off her
36:06I was just trying to shock 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
36:26I can barely look after myself these days
36:28let alone a toddler
36:29I could have easily kicked off when Carla went for me
36:33it reported her
36:34I know
36:35she always liked 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?
36:46stalking you?
