00:00Sam!
00:07Sorry, I got to go.
00:30I got to go.
01:00What are you doing?
01:08Nigel.
01:10Claire.
01:28You all right?
01:30I've got to be in the library all day.
01:32Can you spare five minutes?
01:33There's just something I want to talk through with you.
01:35I've got to go.
01:39You'd hide away in that library forever if you could.
01:43What are you doing?
01:45I ain't got more than a fiver in there, have you?
01:47Harry, what are you doing?
01:49Darling, this has got to stop.
01:50Look, I know going to Oaky's wake was hard, all right,
01:53but you can't keep going round and round like this.
01:55It'll be the last time, I promise.
01:56That's what they all say.
01:58How can you do this?
01:59Your dad is...
02:00Look, once it goes to trial, he'll get off.
02:02And then he'll be home.
02:04Just help me out, okay?
02:07Or I'll have to tell George about that bun you've got in the oven.
02:10Teezer.
02:11I wish you'd have phoned me.
02:12Told me you was coming.
02:16Your mum would be...
02:17I wish you'd have phoned me.
02:18Told me you was coming.
02:19Your mum would be...
02:20ashamed of me for letting us drift apart like that.
02:24You deserved so much better than me.
02:25I wish you'd have phoned me.
02:26I wish you'd have phoned me.
02:27Told me you was coming.
02:31Your mum would be... ashamed of me for letting us drift apart like that.
02:39You deserved so much better than me, Claire.
02:56Listen.
02:57Listen.
02:58You are the kindest man that I have ever met.
02:59Do you know that?
03:00When I was a little girl, everyone else just treated me like I was a nuisance, but not
03:13you.
03:14No, you've always took the time to talk to me.
03:17But now, I've really got to go.
03:18Okay?
03:19Listen.
03:20I can help out after school and in the holidays as well.
03:35You're a good boy, Denzil.
03:37There's always people in need over Christmas and many hands make light work.
03:41Yeah, well, I'm going to check my diary, you know, because I've got social events.
03:46I've got to stay now at a mate's house.
03:51Oh, yeah.
03:52Try calling me and texting me.
03:57I just wish I knew what to say to him.
04:03I've got to get to school anyway.
04:06See you later.
04:08See you.
04:09I'll see you.
04:10I'll see you.
04:11See you later.
04:13See you later.
04:15He shouldn't be feeling guilty.
04:17He didn't do anything wrong.
04:19It was Howie.
04:20It's father and son.
04:23It can be complicated.
04:26Why does it feel like you're not just talking about Howie and Denzel?
04:32Who would have thought that?
04:35Mr. Perfect Dr. Truman has a restraining order against him.
04:39Josie would have torn him into shreds if she was here.
04:44That's what she said to Denise.
04:46He is Patrick's son, Keir.
04:48Until we know the whole truth, he deserves our support.
04:52And Kim, there is no shame in admitting that you're Miss Howie, you know.
05:09Ah, Lauren!
05:14You're well busted.
05:16Excuse me?
05:17Excuse me?
05:18Yeah, yeah.
05:20Mum dumps both kids on her babysitter and takes her day off work so she can, what, hang around
05:25and do nothing all day?
05:26Right, well, first of all, Peter is their dad, so he's not exactly babysitting, is he?
05:30Is he?
05:30And second of all, I am allowed a little bit of time on my own, you know.
05:35Self-care is a thing, even for mums.
05:38So you're not sneaking off to buy my birthday present then?
05:41Yeah, right, as if.
05:44Eighteenths ain't even really important anymore, you know.
05:48It's not really a big deal.
05:49It's more about 21st, even 16th.
05:51Just keep your nose out of my business, all right?
05:53I told you, I don't want anything, Lauren.
05:57Yeah, yeah.
05:58For real!
06:02Oh, Zoe!
06:04Oh, listen, I'd love to catch up.
06:06It's been years.
06:08Let's do brunch sometime.
06:09Yeah?
06:09You didn't seem too surprised to see me.
06:12Well, if that penny show up, that's what we do.
06:15Thing is, I've been having some trouble.
06:17Someone's been making frets, trying to mess with my life.
06:19And then out of the blue, here you are.
06:21Well, like I'd come all the way from Spain, for you.
06:25So you don't mind if I run and tell Phil I've seen you then?
06:31All right, five minutes.
06:33I'm not here.
06:41All right?
06:42Yeah, you all right, mate?
06:46I think I might ask Claire to the filming.
06:48Oh, it's nice of you, by the way.
06:52Thank you for letting her have all that money.
06:55Money?
06:55What?
06:56What money?
06:57What are we talking about?
06:58From the, um...
06:59I, um...
07:06I didn't ask Claire what she wanted it for.
07:10I thought she might be in trouble.
07:11It can't have been Claire, all right?
07:13You haven't seen her for years.
07:14This woman, what does she look like?
07:17She's blonde.
07:19Um, middle-aged.
07:20Look, I've got things to do, all right?
07:25So if you've got something to say, can you just say it?
07:28Someone's been stalking me.
07:30Well, it ain't me.
07:31You sure?
07:32You got fooled for trying to ruin my life.
07:34Yeah, and I feel bad for the way that I treated you in the past,
07:37but it wasn't personal.
07:39Look, I'm here to sort my own life out, right?
07:41Not mess with yours.
07:43You're lying.
07:44You're up to something.
07:45Do you know, it sounds like you've been getting nothing but hassle
07:49since you've been back.
07:50So why are you still here?
07:53I asked about you a couple of times
07:55when Cat and Phil were playing happy families.
07:57I got the impression that you and her weren't exactly in touch.
08:02Look, I get it, right?
08:04Families, they're not all they're cracked up to be.
08:07Time was Phil would have done anything for me, but...
08:10Now, look, just tell me the truth.
08:13Why are you here? Why now?
08:14Well, cos you sharing up ain't no coincidence.
08:17Not everything is about you, sweetheart.
08:20Me and Ricky, all right?
08:22That's all I care about.
08:26We're not that different, you and me.
08:28We never were.
08:30Whoever's got it in for you, it ain't me.
08:34I've been knocking your door down.
08:52Your boy said it'd be here.
08:53Whoever's got your knickers in a twist, I ain't got time for it.
08:56Yeah, well, you'd better make time.
08:57Cos I'm a middle-aged blonde bird.
08:59Nicked 20 grand out of my safe this morning.
09:01So what, you got some scam going, eh?
09:02You trying to get Teddy off the hook or something?
09:04If all it took was money, don't you think I'd have done it by now?
09:07It wasn't me.
09:09I mean, I can't be the only blonde in your life.
09:10Hey, Kota, look at this.
09:17Poor Harry.
09:19Yeah.
09:19Let me tap on him.
09:21He's a word of his death.
09:23I've got to get to work.
09:25Sure.
09:26Er, Kwame?
09:27Yeah?
09:27Could you check on him for me?
09:30Of course.
09:32Jean, you can't keep doing this, all right?
09:34I've got enough on my plate without doing your job and all.
09:37Call me back, please.
09:39Just talk to me.
09:40All right, you old slapper.
09:48Ha!
09:49Know your name, then?
09:51Oh, it's good to see you found your level, Kat.
09:53Sweeping up other people's faggings.
09:56I own the boozer now, so don't bother popping in.
09:58You put your stamp on the place yet?
10:00I go into the ladies, am I going to find it stacked with a pile of leopard print bob roll?
10:05Last time I saw you, you ruined my marriage.
10:07Oh, come on.
10:08I did you a favour.
10:10And you know it.
10:11Who wants to be married to a pound of bacon for the rest of their life?
10:15Anyway, there's a lot to be said for being single.
10:17It weren't your decision to make, and I ain't single.
10:19I married Alfie again.
10:21Well, I'll say one thing for you, Kat.
10:23You do like her greatest hits album.
10:26Please don't tell me you're brave enough to mess with my family again.
10:30What, Zoe?
10:30I've got bigger fish to fry.
10:34I've got bigger fish to fry.
10:34Ripping someone off on the run.
10:36It's either one or the other with you.
10:38Oh, it's been lovely chatting, Kat.
10:39It really has.
10:40But I've got to go now.
10:42I've got an airport lounge and complimentary cocktails with my name on them.
10:45All right.
10:49So where'd you get all that, then?
10:53Oi!
10:54Oi!
10:57She went that way.
10:58The wrong one.
10:59Oh, hello, darling.
11:05Listen, I really need to see you, okay?
11:19Okay, come in.
11:28Where is it, George?
11:29Coach, I want you to be checking on you.
11:31We saw the paper.
11:33Look, it's going to be tough on you.
11:34We know that.
11:35But it sounds like Teddy's trying to do the right thing.
11:39Meaning what are you talking about?
11:41Well, pleading guilty.
11:44What?
11:45No, you wouldn't do that.
11:46What are you talking about?
11:47Well, I just read it.
11:48I mean, as soon as you knew.
11:50But I'm sorry, I wouldn't have come round if I realised you.
11:53No!
11:55What do you mean?
11:56It's meant to be a trial!
11:58No!
11:59No!
11:59What do you mean?
12:00It's been a killin'
12:01It's meant to be a trial!
12:02Hey, listen.
12:03No!
12:04Sentence tomorrow.
12:05No.
12:05Come here.
12:07Just hang on.
12:08Two family businesses opening in as many weeks.
12:12Wolf is not going to know what's hitting.
12:13Yep, everyone's excited.
12:14Mum sent me a posthew tie that I'm absolutely never going to wear.
12:19Lee sent me a thumbs up emoji.
12:20That meant a lot.
12:21And Nancy called me big-headed because I named my business after myself.
12:25Twice.
12:26So...
12:27Your dad would be so proud of you.
12:32I'm sorry Callum's not here, darling.
12:35He called.
12:37He said good luck.
12:37Anyway, he said he'd take Lexi to see Bernice.
12:40No, so...
12:41Well, we can still party.
12:44Let's do it.
12:46Come on.
12:50Mum!
12:51There he is.
12:52Come here, darling.
12:55Oh, God, you...
12:56Come on.
13:00You want to slow down?
13:02No bloke is worth drowning your sorrows over.
13:04True that.
13:05True that.
13:06And if it ain't good vibes, you know what I'm interested?
13:09Because I know my value, yeah?
13:11Zoe knows her value, yeah?
13:13And good for her.
13:15Turns out that Annie ain't all that.
13:18Tell me something I don't know.
13:19Well, I don't think you know that his divorce wasn't exactly a common old garden breakup.
13:25And how's that?
13:27Well, his wife, ex-wife, whatever you want to call her,
13:30she got a restraining order against him.
13:33Yes, and Zoe found out,
13:35packed up her bags and blocked him on everything.
13:40The man's been moping ever since.
13:43And where's she gone?
13:44Well, I don't know.
13:45I'm not a keeper.
13:46You're a mum, innit?
13:46Can I have a word with you about any donations for the Christmas soup kitchen?
13:52Yeah, yeah.
13:52Ask Alfie.
13:56I know people have busy lives, you know, but...
13:58Do you know that it was this time last year that I found Nigel?
14:04Lord knows.
14:05Who is going to be the poorest soul that I need to help this year?
14:092,000 quid.
14:15Yeah, yeah.
14:16I beg your pardon?
14:17I'm still in my car.
14:19And Lauren texted me to say she could get around 2,000 pounds.
14:23So, the soup kitchen can have all of it.
14:26All of it.
14:27All of it.
14:28Listen, I don't want anything more to do with Harry, yeah?
14:31Anything connected.
14:32I don't want it.
14:33I want pure good vibes, yeah?
14:35Peace and love.
14:37Hallelujah.
14:39Ja!
14:39What's the fire, eh?
14:43Let's go!
14:44Get up to it in the toilets.
14:46Wasn't Jean supposed to clean you this morning?
14:48Don't tell me.
14:49Okay, right, she hasn't come in, actually.
14:51What is the point?
14:52But Zoe's working out of Anthony's and I don't know where she's gone.
14:54She's ignoring my calls, my texts, everything.
14:56Well, I thought you were going to give him space.
14:57That was the whole idea about her moving out.
14:59She's trying to protect us from whoever's doing all this.
15:01I can still worry about her.
15:03I'm still her mum.
15:03Okay, I know, I know, sweetheart.
15:05She's a grown woman, but for what it's worth,
15:08I think she's just, you know,
15:09just back off a little bit, yeah?
15:12It stinks.
15:16Yeah, drink this.
15:21I'm sorry.
15:22It's really better.
15:29Did you ever hurt someone?
15:31Yeah, plenty.
15:33Not that I'm proud of it, but...
15:36Where's this coming from?
15:39I saw a man get beaten to death once.
15:53I was just a kid, but...
15:56It turned out the man...
15:58The victim...
16:00Well...
16:01It was my real dad.
16:05It was complicated.
16:08Sorry, I didn't know.
16:09Of course not, buddy.
16:16Listen.
16:18Yeah.
16:21My point is...
16:23I grew up with a dad who I knew was capable of doing terrible things, violent things.
16:33And when you're their son, it's hard not to think you're going to do the same.
16:38But you have to learn to separate yourself from them.
16:41My dad has done nothing but look out for me my whole life.
16:48And now he's going to spend years inside for something he didn't even do.
16:52Hang on, I mean...
16:54Of course you want to think the best of him, but if he's pleading guilt...
16:59He's only doing that because he thinks he has to.
17:05To protect me.
17:06What were you saying?
17:14I didn't want to.
17:17I was just trying to save Kojo.
17:22So...
17:23So Kojo is in danger, eh?
17:30You did this.
17:32You killed Okie.
17:33It was an accident.
17:40I panicked.
17:42My dad said that he'd sought it and I...
17:44I let him go.
17:46There was no evidence.
17:48I thought that he'd get off.
17:51Harry, Harry.
17:53I watched.
17:55What happened to my dad?
17:57I was just a kid.
18:00But like I said...
18:02I just watched.
18:03And even though I didn't know the whole story...
18:05I still felt terrible guilt.
18:09So right now you have to make a decision.
18:11Do you understand?
18:15Either you let your guilt drag you down even further than you already are.
18:19Or...
18:20You have to find a...
18:24A new way through this.
18:27No matter how hard it is.
18:29Why didn't you say you were coming?
18:42Well, it was also last minute.
18:44Anyway, you know me.
18:46I'll go where the wind takes me.
18:47I've texted you.
18:50Just leave me on read.
18:55Did you get that video I sent you of Charlie last week?
18:57I think she's so chatty now.
18:58That's amazing.
19:00Last time you saw her, she was just this little thing.
19:02And now she's like a proper human.
19:05I just love her so much.
19:08I know you wish that I was more like other mums.
19:10Yeah?
19:11Nagging at you to pick up your dirty socks and...
19:13Showing up to be.
19:15Yeah.
19:17Yeah, I should have done things differently.
19:20A lot differently.
19:20I really wish I had it in me to be the mum that you deserve with me.
19:27You're all right.
19:27But I know I ain't been enough.
19:30But that don't mean I don't love you.
19:32I'm so proud of you, darling.
19:34Look at you.
19:36You've got so much potential, you know?
19:38You can do anything.
19:40Go anywhere you want in your life.
19:42Take Charlie with you.
19:43Why not?
19:44Why are you talking like this?
19:47Because there's things I need to tell you.
19:48And that's why I came over, because I wanted to tell you in person.
19:55Don't worry, everything's going to be all right.
19:58I'm going to make sure that your future's set up.
20:00No matter what.
20:02No matter what?
20:04What's that supposed to mean?
20:06Do you know the best thing that a parent can give a kid?
20:09It's a leg up.
20:11Money.
20:12And a lot of it...
20:13Mum, I don't want your money.
20:14No, I don't mean for now.
20:15I'm going to put it in an account and it's going to earn you interest.
20:18And then, when you decide what you want to do with your life, you'll be there.
20:25I ain't giving you much.
20:28Please, just let me give you this.
20:29If you're looking for Zoe, she ain't here.
20:43And thanks to you, my family's been torn apart.
20:45Thanks to me?
20:46How'd you get there?
20:47She's accused Tommy of being her stalker.
20:50But I know better, yeah?
20:52It's funny how this all started after you showed up.
20:55Zoe ain't that into you, so the best way to keep her close is to keep her scared, yeah?
20:58Penny, you think a man like me would mess about painting scary messages?
21:03As far as I can see, she wants nothing to do with you.
21:06So take the hint and knock this on the edge, yeah?
21:08Or I'll make sure that you don't get off with a restraining order this time.
21:12What the hell are you doing here?
21:25That'd be nice.
21:26No, no, no, just dropping in here, like getting him to skip school.
21:29What do you want this time?
21:31I'll just ignore him, okay?
21:33I came here because I wanted to see you.
21:34Now I've done that, I've got to go.
21:38You can't just go.
21:39You haven't even seen Charlie yet.
21:40I mean, why don't you just come round for dinner?
21:42Darling, listen, I'd love to, all right?
21:44But I can't.
21:46If I go to the airport now, I might be able to blag myself a cheap flight back to Spain.
21:49Yeah?
21:50Bye then.
21:52You are the only good thing that I've done with my life.
21:57Just know that.
21:57She was talking about sending me money, but putting it in an account for me when I'm older.
22:12She's probably speeding you a line, isn't she?
22:13Sounds about right.
22:14No, Dad, I'm serious.
22:16She was acting really weird.
22:19Acting like she was never going to see me again or something.
22:27What are you doing here?
22:32What have you said to him?
22:33He's telling me everything.
22:35About saving Kojo, killing Okie.
22:39But you should be proud of him.
22:41Because at least he knows the difference between right and wrong.
22:44Are you ready?
22:46Let's go.
22:46Go home.
22:48Go where?
22:49I can't let Dad do this.
22:52Were you ever going to tell me?
22:53Of course I was.
22:55When the time was right.
22:56Nicola, you lied to the police.
22:58You're letting an innocent man go down.
23:00Doesn't that matter to you?
23:02Harry, I've got that money.
23:03You know, cash.
23:04Don't you want it?
23:05Whoa, whoa.
23:06You're giving him money for drugs?
23:08Hey, Harry.
23:10You told me the truth.
23:12Off your own back.
23:13No one forced you.
23:15You just have to ask yourself why.
23:17Because of my Dad?
23:18Yeah.
23:19So what sort of man did he teach you to be?
23:22Sort of man that stands up or sort of man that runs away?
23:24That's easy enough for you to say.
23:25When it isn't your kid facing the dock.
23:27If it was Junior, Gina or Anna, I would say the same thing.
23:31Yeah, say the same thing or do the same thing.
23:34Look, darling.
23:35You haven't thought this through, all right?
23:36What about your brother?
23:37How's he going to cope with you inside?
23:39And you've got to think about what your Dad wants.
23:40Just shift up for a minute and let me think.
23:46They'll put me on remand, won't they?
23:48Yeah, probably.
23:49Remand?
23:49Why are you even thinking about that?
23:52I'll pack a change of clothes.
23:53No, Harry.
23:54Don't do this.
23:57Please.
24:00Darling, I'm begging you.
24:03I'm sorry, Mum.
24:04Hey, it's a bit early for the hard stuff.
24:28Listen, son, I...
24:32Nobody knows better than me that relationships, they ain't easy.
24:38The marriages break up.
24:39People say things they don't really mean.
24:41No, I know, I know, I know.
24:42It ain't as simple as that.
24:44You don't know anything!
24:45So just back off!
24:47Harry, how are you going to cope in prison?
25:00Look, he's got mates, they'll have you on day one.
25:01Nicola, don't.
25:02Look, if you do this, it won't just be you that goes down.
25:05Me and your Dad will be done for conspiracy.
25:07Perverting the course of justice.
25:08You lied, so it's your problem.
25:10And yours.
25:11What are you talking about?
25:11If he does this, I'll be having your baby in prison.
25:16What?
25:18I'm pregnant.
25:25Sam!
25:27Come here.
25:31Ricky said you offered him some money.
25:32Why?
25:34Is it a lie?
25:36Or are you just messing with his head?
25:37Of course not.
25:38So you are trying to buy him, then?
25:40Get him to love you for your money.
25:42Because there ain't much else to love you for, is there?
25:43Oh, that's a bit harsh, Jack.
25:44Are you scared?
25:45He says you're talking to him like you might not ever see him again.
25:49All right, he's worried.
25:50Because he's a little boy with a big R.
25:52Me on the other hand, I'm older and wiser.
25:55You're up to something, aren't you?
25:56You're in trouble.
25:58What have you done?
25:59Well, you scammed someone out of something.
26:01Now they're coming after you.
26:02Hey, for what?
26:03What, are you planning to scam?
26:04Someone and what, you think you might go wrong?
26:07You're unbelievable, you are.
26:09You don't change, do you?
26:10Still the same lying, manipulative...
26:12I'm dying, Jack.
26:16I found a lump.
26:19I'm dying.
26:20I'm dying.
