00:30When should me and Erin come round and make that phone call?
00:34Not here.
00:35Oh, it wants you to put it in.
00:38Now there's an offer.
00:40Bit early in the day for jokes like that, innit?
00:43Sorry, just a bit giddy this morning.
00:47Today's the day I've decided to turn over a new leaf.
00:51Just to become the sort of person people could be proud of.
00:56Swallowed a self-help book, have you?
00:59All right.
01:00Didn't, er, didn't see you there.
01:03How's it going?
01:04Yeah, all right.
01:05You?
01:06Sound.
01:07Never better.
01:08Er, I'm off house hunting.
01:10Can't stay at Charles and Claudie's forever, can I?
01:12Not fancy coming with us, do you?
01:14Could do with a second opinion.
01:16When I said treat yourself, I didn't mean buy a house.
01:19Oh, that big place on Dendite Road's just gone back on the market.
01:22A bit at my price range.
01:23I thought you were loaded.
01:24It's not a good aesthetic all.
01:25I've got enough to get by, but money's not everything, is it?
01:28Definitely helps.
01:29Anyway, the, er, estate agent will be thinking I've got kidnaps.
01:33Maybe, er, maybe see you later.
01:35Yeah, yeah, maybe.
01:37Do you want to get out of me way?
01:44As long as you stay out of mine.
01:47What was all that about?
01:52Oh, we had words in the cafe, he was giving it all that.
01:55Someone needs to take him down a peg or two, someone to see him well.
01:58Are you coming with us then?
02:01I don't know.
02:02Be good to see me family again.
02:05And this is your chance.
02:08It's risky.
02:09We're safe a year.
02:11Tell us at Andrew.
02:13Where are we going to go?
02:15Bridlington.
02:16Brid?
02:17Hmm.
02:18My gran used to take me there when I was a kid.
02:19Are you planning to get out?
02:21The spare case at this place is in a scullery.
02:26I thought that when I was in there, you can't guess them for us.
02:31Break's over, ladies and gentlemen.
02:34Your carriage awaits.
02:36You all right, mate?
02:38All right as any of us are after what happened to Anya.
02:42Yeah, it's been a tough few days, eh?
02:45We'll get through it.
02:46We always do.
02:47Maybe.
02:48This should take the edge off.
02:50Chop!
02:52Chop!
02:53Slurry cleaning for you lucky people!
03:00He pretends he cares, but he don't.
03:03You want to see your son again?
03:05Get them keys.
03:13If Kev's bought a house, maybe he's moved on.
03:15Around the corner, how's that going to solve anything?
03:17They need shot of him, love.
03:19You're just the man to do it.
03:22What?
03:23You want me to make the call?
03:24It'll sound bad coming from you.
03:25I'm implicated in this crime.
03:27Don't tell the police that bit.
03:29Come on.
03:30I've removed caller ID so it'll be anonymous.
03:32I'm terrible at lying.
03:33Make the call, Liam.
03:34Hello?
03:35Yes.
03:36Um, police, please.
03:37Yes, I've got some information on an armed robbery.
03:39Yeah.
03:40Yes, the one at the pawn shop in Hotton.
03:42Yeah.
03:43His name is Kev Townsend.
03:45Well?
03:46The fuse box is completely burnt out.
03:48Can't be.
03:49Dad only fixed it a couple of years ago.
03:50Yeah, and he was pretty handy with a toolbox with Zach.
03:51Well, this is a complete box drop.
03:52I'm amazed the house aren't burnt down.
03:53The whole place needs rewiring and it's not cheap.
03:54How?
03:55Not cheap?
03:56What's the size?
03:57It'll be $100.
03:58Yeah, it's $100.
03:59Google's in the oven.
04:00To be $100.
04:02It's $100.
04:04This is, you know, for just a trick, there's $100.
04:05That's cheap.
04:06Get box out of here.
04:07Oh, great.
04:08Yes.
04:09To be $100,000.
04:10Call, too.
04:11Now we're going to get $300.
04:12Oh, be $400.
04:13Your rent.
04:14Email me.
04:15Here.
04:16Oh, man.
04:17Oh, no.
04:18Oh, I'm sorry.
04:19Get.
04:20Oh, no.
04:21How's this size? It'll be two grand at least.
04:24Hell's teeth.
04:25Yeah, but us being family, we'll get preferential rates, won't we?
04:29That's only for parts.
04:30Sack this, I'll do it myself.
04:33How?
04:34I'll watch a video. I'm a quick learner.
04:36Oh, yeah.
04:37Look, he's right. You can't go messing. You'll blow the place up.
04:40We haven't got two grand.
04:43Kim has. Ask her.
04:45I'm not exploiting our friendship.
04:47She's not going to miss it, is she?
04:48It's a matter of principle.
04:50This is our problem, no one else's. We'll fix it.
04:53We can pay you bit by bit, can't we?
04:56Yeah, I suppose. Family.
04:58Good lad.
05:01Right, well, there's about 250 quid there.
05:08I've got a card reader, you know.
05:09Cash is king.
05:10That were for Jason Donovan.
05:12Yeah, well, I don't need it now, do I?
05:14Will that be enough to get you started?
05:16Well, I suppose it'll have to be.
05:18When do you think you can find the rest?
05:19We'll worry about that.
05:21You just get cracking.
05:23Oh, Nicola.
05:24What do I owe the pleasure?
05:25I need coins.
05:26I have had a lot of people paying cash, so my flight's gone.
05:29Well, why didn't you just ask Chas at the pub?
05:31It would be a lot quicker.
05:32Have you got any spare change or not?
05:33What's wrong with you?
05:35What's wrong with you?
05:36Sorry.
05:37I mean, it's been a bit of a tricky morning.
05:39Tell me about it.
05:40Why? What's wrong?
05:41I'm trying to get Jason Donovan tickets.
05:43Oh, well, good luck.
05:44Can I try?
05:45They're all booked up.
05:46Hmm.
05:47That's them on the resale websites.
05:48Lydia is a huge fan.
05:49And I thought it's fine.
05:50We'll just throw a Jason party.
05:52I'm more of a Kylie girl.
05:54Well, it's not even a drawer, is it?
05:56I'm six o'clock.
06:00Hi.
06:02Hey, how's it going?
06:03Yeah, good.
06:06Laurel was just talking about you.
06:08Was I?
06:10Have you sold any combine harvesters this morning?
06:14Well, it's been pretty hectic.
06:17Oh, but it sounds like you need to put your feet up.
06:19Let Laurel cater to your every need.
06:21Well, certainly wouldn't say no to a pizza.
06:23Take a seat.
06:24She'll be right with you.
06:27Nicola.
06:28What are you doing?
06:29I'm trying to speed things up.
06:30How long have you two been circling round each other?
06:33Yeah, we are just good friends, okay?
06:35And that's how you're going to stay at this rate?
06:36I mean, you clearly fancy each other.
06:38I should.
06:39All right.
06:40It's time to move things on to the next level.
06:42Oh, and stop mentioning combine harvesters.
06:46It's not sexy.
06:47Come on, open your top.
06:48Get off.
06:49Get off.
06:50Warren.
06:51Get off.
06:53Can you come?
06:55Perfect for the time.
06:57Are you ever safe?
06:58Er, what do you mean?
06:59No sign of mouthy knickers.
07:01If you mean Nicola, she's not mouthy-nickers, you know.
07:04She's loyal and protective.
07:06Tell me about it.
07:08What is it with you two?
07:10It's none of your business.
07:12I think it is.
07:13Have you done something bad?
07:15Yeah.
07:16You have done loads of things I'm not proud of, but that's not in the past.
07:20I'm a reformed character.
07:22I like them.
07:23Buying a house.
07:24So why is she telling me you're trouble?
07:26No idea.
07:28I know you two are hiding something.
07:30But it's...
07:33It's complicated.
07:34Yeah, but I can handle complicated.
07:36Mr Townsend.
07:38You're a hard man to track down.
07:40Aw.
07:41I missed you.
07:42What do you want now?
07:44I need to talk to you about an armed robbery.
07:48I've got absolutely no idea what she's talking about.
07:51This is police harassment.
07:52We can discuss that at the police station.
07:54Are you arresting him?
07:55Not unless we have to.
07:56This is preposterous.
07:57I've done nothing wrong.
07:59We've got officers searching the local church.
08:01We'll soon know one way or another, won't we?
08:04Shall we?
08:16What was all that about?
08:17Oh, well, they're accusing him of armed robbery.
08:20Can you believe it?
08:23A flat white, please.
08:27Double pepperoni with extra chilli oil.
08:30As if you're not hot enough.
08:32Oh.
08:33Sorry.
08:34I wish I hadn't said that now.
08:35Sorry.
08:36You're pretty hot yourself.
08:37Oh.
08:38As if?
08:39No.
08:40I think so.
08:41Well.
08:42Sorry about Nicola earlier.
08:46She means well, but she has a habit of sticking her oar in.
08:50Mm.
08:51She's got a point, though.
08:53Why, do you mean?
08:55Well, we haven't actually been on a proper date yet, have we?
08:58Well, it's just, it's hard to find the time.
09:01I've been so busy recently.
09:02I'm three later, finish at four, and Dottie's having a tea with Gabby, so...
09:07Well, that is a great idea.
09:10But, um, something's just come up.
09:13I'm sorry.
09:14It's not biggie.
09:15You know if it's not meant to be.
09:18I'm free for lunch tomorrow.
09:20You say that.
09:21No, I am.
09:22100%.
09:23And I know a nice little bistro in Hotton.
09:26Shall we, um...
09:28Shall we call it a day?
09:30We'll call it a day.
09:37Well?
09:38Oh, God, are you still here?
09:39Yeah, I'm just on my way, so in your own time...
09:41Oh, we are going for lunch tomorrow.
09:43At last!
09:44Right.
09:45You need to bung on your sexiest dress and luckiest pants.
09:47What, no, I'm not putting out on my first day.
09:49Oh, definitely a no-no.
09:51No, they've already been hanging round together.
09:53And you're obviously both gagging for it.
09:55No, Nicola.
09:56We are going to take things really slowly.
09:58Me and Jimmy didn't.
09:59Oh, a quick bunk up in the back of a lorry 16, 17 years ago.
10:02And we've been together ever since.
10:04Probably cos no-one else will have him.
10:06Look, most men let you down.
10:08Yeah, can you stop butting in?
10:09If the spark's there.
10:11Well, Jay swept me off my feet and look how that ended.
10:13Well, Jay's a lying conniving kit.
10:15Yeah, what if Ray is?
10:16Do you reckon he is?
10:18No.
10:19No.
10:20Ray just seems like a really nice man.
10:22Well then, stop overthinking it.
10:24You deserve this.
10:25Yeah.
10:26I do deserve this.
10:27Are you denying you were at Cashfitters at 10.37am four days ago?
10:32I've never heard of the gaff.
10:34We've got you on CCTV.
10:36What if I'd be seeing dead in a hat and scarf like that?
10:43Really?
10:44Same height and build?
10:46And it's not your first rodeo, is it?
10:48No comment.
10:49You've been identified by a member of the public.
10:52Look, we know where you've hidden the goods.
10:54Why prolong the agony?
10:56No comment.
10:58The purpose of recording PC Kendall has entered to provide an update on the investigation.
11:08Happy night.
11:10They've concluded the search of the church.
11:13You're free to leave.
11:15Really?
11:16That doesn't mean this is over.
11:18We know you've hidden it all somewhere.
11:20Yeah, well, we all know stuff, don't we, love?
11:22Just proving it, that's the tricky bit, innit?
11:24Well, there is something to prove then?
11:26No.
11:27Apparently driven snow me.
11:29Someone's been telling you lies.
11:31Who would do that?
11:33That's the question, innit?
11:50Eric, I'm offering a bespoke service.
11:54Your entire house, every nook and cranny.
11:56A proper bottom in, ready for Christmas.
11:58Sixty quid.
11:59What do you reckon?
12:01Hello?
12:02Hel...
12:05Well, so no then.
12:06Carried us all the cleaning.
12:09Bad news.
12:10Oh, what's happened now?
12:11Oh!
12:12I thought you were a home van.
12:13I'm on my way, but if something's troubling you...
12:15No, no, it's fine, don't worry about it.
12:16Right, OK then.
12:17See you later.
12:18Traz.
12:24Why are you being so weird?
12:25Because.
12:26I found two Jason Donovan tickets, resale, 200 quid.
12:30How's that a bad thing?
12:31Someone's snapped them up already!
12:33Well, we haven't got 200 quid any rather.
12:35Yeah, we do.
12:36Might buy that cash from the other day.
12:38Not to give it all to him.
12:40Fixing the electrics.
12:41Two grand, he reckons.
12:43What?
12:44It's a blown fuse, it can't cost that much.
12:46It's worse than that.
12:47Whole place needs rewiring.
12:49Can't do it for an hour, can I?
12:50Lydia's got her heart set on that concert.
12:53Where are you going?
12:54To a drop that pairs, mate.
13:04We need cash, Sam.
13:05If the tickets become available, I want to be able to get them.
13:07I've had a brilliant idea.
13:19Yeah?
13:21I reckon Kev will be in her van on his way to prison now.
13:27Don't be kidding me.
13:28You alright?
13:30You alright?
13:31Don't look alright.
13:41You still there?
13:42Open the door, Nicola.
13:44I think we might have a big problem.
13:46We're closed!
13:47Stop take!
13:48Open the door, Nicola.
14:02I let you out already?
14:03Mm-hmm.
14:04Ten out of ten, unfortunately for you.
14:06Right, before you kick off, don't you want to hear the whole story?
14:09I know the whole story.
14:10You crashed me up.
14:11End of.
14:12No!
14:14I saved you from prison!
14:19I got wind the police were going to raid the church.
14:22Who told you that?
14:23Liam.
14:24Why would Liam know what you've been up to?
14:27You wouldn't?
14:29Whoever it was, I'm going to kill them.
14:31Nobody's getting killed.
14:33I rescued this lot from the church before the police turned up.
14:36Call it my good deed for the day.
14:37Why would you do a thing like that?
14:39That's an excellent question.
14:41See, morally, I should hand this lot in
14:43and have you sent back to prison, where you so clearly belong.
14:47Call that option one.
14:48What's option two?
14:50That I let you take your ill-gotten gains
14:52and walk away scot-free.
14:53I take option two.
14:54Right answer.
14:56Now we need to discuss my terms.
14:58It's about Lewis, innit?
15:00Kev, you are not just a pushy face.
15:03Great.
15:04Right, I'll be round later.
15:08Sorted.
15:10Cain's going to borrow her as Moira's tractor.
15:12Tell me how that's a brilliant idea.
15:15Because we're going to help ourselves to a few Christmas trees from home farm.
15:19We?
15:21Well, I can't do it on me Todd, can I?
15:23We sell the trees, fifty quid a pop.
15:26We only need to sell twenty and we've got enough for Lydia's concert,
15:29plus we can whack a chunk off the electrics.
15:30No, I can't afford to break the law.
15:32Don't give up of it.
15:33We've brought the law loads of times.
15:35It's what we do in a crisis.
15:37Lydia, missing a Jason Donovan concert is not a crisis.
15:41Tell you what is.
15:42I've got Bridezilla in Manchester demanding that a choir sing at a wedding.
15:46That's a crisis.
15:47Well, the electrics then.
15:50What?
15:51Now you've got your post job, you're too important to out your own flesh and blood.
15:55No, of course not.
15:58Come on Belle.
16:00Be like old times.
16:02Not wrong with a bit of mischief now and then.
16:05I suppose.
16:07But, what if Kim captures us?
16:10Me and Dad have took trees from home farm.
16:13Loads of times.
16:14Never been caught before.
16:16And I'm gamekeeper now.
16:17I'm trusted.
16:19Kim will never suss it to us.
16:21What could go wrong?
16:36I'll pick you up at twelve.
16:37Twelve, right.
16:38Twelve, yeah.
16:39Yeah, I'm looking forward to it too.
16:40Okay, bye.
16:46What are you doing?
16:47We're looking for more of them bills.
16:49Then you ask, Ted.
16:51You don't come snooping around.
16:53You know the rules.
16:55I'm sorry.
16:56Mum's right.
16:58I am being too soft on you.
16:59You should be out there grafting with the others.
17:02I'm struggling.
17:03We all are.
17:04What happened to Ania.
17:05I mean, it's hard for us to get our heads around.
17:07Um.
17:10Yeah.
17:11Poor kid.
17:12So young.
17:13I only wish there was something else we could have done.
17:16You're a good man, Ted.
17:18But don't start overstepping boundaries.
17:21Trust is a two-way street.
17:24I can still trust you.
17:27Can't I?
17:30Can't I?
17:32Always.
17:34Good.
17:35I'm taking you at your word that the robbery was a one-off because you needed the money.
17:45So I'm offering you a lifeline here.
17:48And all you have to do is keep your distance.
17:50You don't get to tell me what to do.
17:51Well, I do if you don't want to get caught.
17:53I can still make that happen.
17:54Yeah, and you'd regret that.
17:55Maybe.
17:56But not as much as you would.
18:00Instead of huffing and puffing, try and see this for what it is.
18:04A chance to disappear and start again.
18:07What?
18:08Leave Robert behind?
18:10Forget about him.
18:11He doesn't want you anymore.
18:14I'm working on it.
18:16Oh, Kev.
18:17Stop deluding yourself.
18:19Do you really want to stay and risk getting caught on the incredibly remote chance that Robert has a change of heart?
18:27Or would you rather walk away with money in your pocket and the police none the wiser?
18:32I know which one I'd choose.
18:34And all you have to do in return is forget about Lewis.
18:38It's a small price to pay, don't you think?
18:43Fine.
18:44Okay, well, off you go then.
18:50Open, Kev.
18:52Don't hurry back.
18:54Lewis!
18:56Oh!
18:57They let you out.
19:00Yeah, it's all just...
19:01It's a misunderstanding.
19:03What are you doing here then?
19:04Just leaving.
19:14What has he got in that bag?
19:18Oh, you don't need to know.
19:20Can you stop fobbing me off?
19:21Like, what is going on?
19:23He told me you were together.
19:24You act weird.
19:26Okay, well, if you're not going to tell him, I'm going to ask Kev.
19:28No!
19:30Okay, you want the truth?
19:33That arm robbery, it was him.
19:35But he said...
19:36You can't trust a word he tells you.
19:39He robbed the pawn shop, he admitted it.
19:41So why are you letting him get away with it?
19:43Because the man is unhinged.
19:45Who knows what he'd do?
19:47At least this way no one gets hurt.
19:50I can't believe I thought he was a decent person.
19:52He's trouble, like I've been telling you.
19:55From now on, we have nothing to do with him.
19:58Yeah, okay.
20:00I don't befriend violent criminals.
20:10Don't let me catch you snooping around again.
20:16Lucky it was me that caught you. Mum won't be self-forgiving.
20:20Yeah, I'm sorry.
20:22Ten minutes and back to work.
20:33We needed those keys.
20:35At least he tried.
20:40You got them?
20:42You can't leave tonight.
20:43Best go tomorrow when Ray's not around.
20:46How do you know that?
20:48I heard him earlier.
20:49Talking with somebody.
20:51What if Delia cast you us?
20:53That's a risk we have to take.
20:55Whatever happens to us.
20:57It's better than being stuck in here.
21:00Why did the police let him go?
21:02And what happened to all the stuff in the church?
21:04Maybe Nicola got there first.
21:06What's she got to do with it?
21:07I don't know but Kev did head straight to the cafe as soon as he got back.
21:11You know what I said?
21:13I did see them two having a go at each other yesterday.
21:16I didn't hear what they were arguing about but that makes sense now.
21:19We should never let things get this far.
21:22He'll be fine.
21:24But he won't.
21:26I just want to be with you properly without worrying what will happen if Kev finds out.
21:30He won't, will he?
21:31If we're careful then we'll get through it.
21:33I don't know.
21:34Robert.
21:36I love you.
21:37And you love me.
21:39And for now, that's all we need to know.
21:41It still doesn't change the fact that Kev still wants me back and he's never just gonna let me-
21:44He's never gonna let me.
21:45He's never gonna let you.
21:46He's never gonna let me.
21:47He's never gonna let me.
