00:30You've been out on that call forever.
00:37Yeah.
00:38Difficult carving.
00:40I had to drive her in the dark, one on every headlight behind me.
00:45I was terrified it was right.
00:47Listen to me.
00:48We've got this.
00:49We have got away.
00:50I've accepted an offer on the car.
00:51I mean, seven grand, but they're going to transfer the money over today, and I've applied
00:54online for a bank loan to cover the shortfall.
00:56And then what?
00:57I've told you we've got no guarantee that Ray is going to keep his side of the bargain
01:01and keep away from us.
01:02No, no, no.
01:03He's named his price.
01:04If we don't pay up, things are only going to get worse.
01:05Us, the kids, we could all end up dead.
01:07Marlon.
01:08I'm sorry.
01:09I just want us to feel safe again, and getting that money is the only way.
01:14We'll do it.
01:16We'll pay him off by tonight.
01:17I promise.
01:18And then it'll all be over.
01:27So we're all set for tomorrow.
01:28It's going to be wonderful.
01:30The community coming together in the spirit of Christmas.
01:33A few carols from Bob.
01:34Alongside a carefully curated selection of festive bangers.
01:38All we need to do now is decide whether to channel Michael Bublé or Tom Jones.
01:43Channel who you want.
01:44It's not going to be anything anyone's not heard before.
01:46Are we finished then?
01:47Only I need to pick up my jacket from the cleaners.
01:49Tinsel up my mic stand.
01:50What do you even try to analyse that?
01:52I'm already late for prayer group.
01:54Sure.
01:55They'll all be persuaded to buy a ticket.
01:57Which leaves us with a shortfall of how many?
01:59Have faith in the Lord Nicola.
02:01By tomorrow I'm confident I will have sold them all.
02:04See you all bright and early to set up.
02:11Just don't tell anyone else.
02:13Keep it a secret.
02:14Right.
02:15I'll call you back.
02:17A secret?
02:19Yeah.
02:22I was just sorting your Christmas present.
02:24You don't have the money for one of those Sam.
02:27Come on don't be lying to me.
02:28What the heck are you up to now?
02:37Thanks love.
02:40You heard anything yet?
02:41About the loan?
02:42I just had a call from the bank.
02:44They wanted to erm...
02:46Clarify a few issues.
02:47Issues?
02:48Just...
02:49Taking everything into consideration.
02:51My credit scores pants but they'll...
02:53They'll give me ten grand.
02:55Well that's better than nothing.
02:57So with that and the seven grand from your car we just need to find another three by tonight.
03:02We're stretched to the limit.
03:04Well maybe we should just give Ray what we've got and tell him we'll find the rest in the next few days.
03:08No no.
03:09The deal was we're paying the full amount today.
03:11Anything short of that we're back to where we started.
03:15I've been going through the books this morning.
03:17The business accounts for the practice.
03:20The business that you run with Paddy and Vanessa.
03:23The business that's an actual business and not a personal income stream.
03:26We're owed thousands in unpaid bills right so I thought I could go knocking on doors and see if anybody will pay up.
03:32I hate this.
03:34I hate what we're having to do stealing from our friends.
03:36By the time they notice I will have paid it all back and I can explain why.
03:41Marlon it's either that or we fail and that is not an option.
03:44Do you reckon you'll be able to get her hands on cash today?
03:49Bernard owes us a fortune.
03:51Actually so does Moira.
03:53You know how tough things have been for her.
03:55Yeah and if she knew how tough things have been for us,
03:57Moira would move heaven and earth to get us what we need.
04:00You're right Marlon, we are so close to having way out of our lives.
04:04I will get that money, whatever it takes.
04:07Whipped cream and sprinkles for the kids.
04:14Very festive.
04:15And this one, definitely adults only.
04:21Well where have you put in that? It's taking the roof off my mouth.
04:24That bottle of whisky Rodney gave us for Christmas a few years back.
04:27I thought it might warm the cockles.
04:30Sticking off of it in and nobody's going to notice that we're using the cheapo chocolate powder.
04:34Ah, we can charge double. Jimmy you're a genius.
04:39Oliver.
04:41He got me number one at gamekeeper on his last shoot and he wants to book another.
04:45Get him to ring Kim.
04:46He already has.
04:48She says he can't come back.
04:50So he wants me to do a special on the cute tea tomorrow.
04:54Go behind Kim's back?
04:56With what Oliver's offering, we could finish the rewire, pay off his debts and have the biggest turkey for Christmas ever.
05:02You think a few pounds is worth risking our relationship with Kim?
05:07I keep telling you, we're not their family. We never have been.
05:11Her and Jo just make us feel like we are, when it suits them, to keep us working hardy.
05:17Even so, to deceive them like that, a shoot on their land.
05:21If anyone was to get a whiff, we'd both lose our jobs.
05:25Jo and Dawn are going to Edinburgh tonight.
05:28All you've got to do is get Kim to that Christmas fit and keep her busy.
05:32I suppose what they don't know won't hurt them.
05:39You leave Kim to me.
05:45No charge.
05:47Got lost, Eric.
05:48I tried to catch your first thing, but it had already gone to work.
05:55Yeah, got in early. I couldn't stand to be in the same house as you another second longer.
06:00Kerry, just give me a chance.
06:03Do you know what? I'll pay for me dinner out of the account that you set up in my name that you didn't tell me about.
06:08I tried to explain what I did and why I did.
06:13I get it. I get it, Eric.
06:16It's all for Jacob.
06:18It's not just about the taxes.
06:21I care for him and I care for Sarah.
06:26They might be made for each other, but I don't share his unbridled optimism for his future.
06:33A trainee doctor with a newborn baby.
06:35He's going to have his work cut out.
06:38Yeah.
06:40And a fiancé who has a terminal condition and has no idea how much longer she has.
06:48He heart breaks for the pair of them.
06:51I am trying to do what I can.
06:54Trying to foolproof his life. That's why I set up the account.
07:00You've stuck with me through everything.
07:02I'd like to think you'd do the same for him.
07:10Grab us a coffee.
07:12Then we'll talk.
07:13Oh, the kids have been wrapping Christmas presents and the rugs are covered in glitter and glue, if you could deal with that first.
07:27I'll grab the white vinegar.
07:29And the en-suites are all due a thorough deep clean.
07:33Anything else?
07:35Well, do you fancy a coffee before you start? I won't expect you to make the time up.
07:39No, thanks.
07:41Erm, but I was thinking about this Christmas fair. You know, the one we're organising for the sick kiddies.
07:46It's a waste of time.
07:47I mean, you won't make serious money by flogging homemade mince pies that someone's fingernails got baked into them.
07:58You hold a charity ball. An auction with proper prizes.
08:02I suppose you do.
08:03Oh, and if Nicola wants yet another donation for her tacky Dombola, she can go whistle.
08:10It's a raffle, actually. And you've already given us a bottle.
08:14Of my very best Pumanti.
08:16Look, I was hoping, well, we all were actually, that you'd put in an appearance.
08:23We all know how poorly Evan's been.
08:25Well, I've already donated to the hospital.
08:29It's been such a terrible year for so many of us.
08:32And you're seen as a figurehead in the community.
08:36If you were to turn up, show your support, it'd mean so much.
08:41Well, as Lady of the Manor, I was always planning on doing my duty.
08:47No matter how tedious it might be, it'll be a PR win, if nothing else.
08:52So you'll turn up?
08:55Oh, I wouldn't miss this Christmas fair for the world.
09:07Got to the spooky bit yet?
09:09The ghost of Christmas past!
09:11Yeah, yeah, I'm nearly there.
09:14I knew you'd like it.
09:16Once you get drawn into the Dickens universe, you just, you know, lose yourself.
09:19Yeah, I'm lost all right.
09:21Oh, well, you can tell me what you think about the ending when I've, you know, finished my latest batch of stolen.
09:30You've been picking up that book and putting it down all morning.
09:34Er, coffee to Descartes, please, Nicole.
09:36Best you've roasted or normal?
09:38Ooh, er, first one. Thanks.
09:40Yeah, no, I can't get past baseball.
09:42Of course you can't. Brain rotted by social media.
09:44The attention's kind of a nap.
09:46She says that to me all the time. I take it as a term of endearment.
09:50No, I've just got better things to do than read old books written by dead people.
09:54Oh, I'm sure Lewis will appreciate your honest review. He asked you to read it for a reason.
09:59Did he? What reason?
10:00Never you mind.
10:02Dickens! Oh, it's well good, you know, I remember we did it in school.
10:04Okay, then maybe you can tell me what happens then, cos I told Lewis I'd never finished it.
10:08Er, we can do better than that, Mr Ebeneezer Scrooge.
10:11Your place, half an hour, I'll bring popcorn.
10:14Mm.
10:16Mm.
10:18Mum, you said you'd be here by twelve.
10:21I've got a job on this afternoon. Get yourself back now.
10:24Alright, finish it down the cellar.
10:26That's where your mother keeps the woofers and tweeters.
10:28Sound system, yeah. Help yourself.
10:31Hey!
10:33How's your mother?
10:35Er, Ken told Mum your dad a bit of a bump on.
10:37Oh, it's all good. At least it will be.
10:40Nobody got hurt, that's the main thing, isn't it?
10:42And Marlon's dealing with it, so once he's done that, we'll never mention it again.
10:46Good with me.
10:47Oh, it's good that you can keep it between the pair of you.
10:50You know, stay friends.
10:52What are you after, then?
10:53Fillet's steak and chips?
10:54Same here, thank you.
10:56Two specials, right.
11:00You've not asked a mother when it cooked.
11:02Er, sorry. How do you want your steaks cooked?
11:04Bloody.
11:05Oh.
11:06Marlon, you know how I like my steak cooked.
11:08Shall we sit by the fire?
11:09Yeah.
11:11Ray, you got a minute?
11:14Well, it's nice to chat, mate, but, er, I'm kind of busy.
11:17Um.
11:18Your money.
11:19We'll have it by the end of the day.
11:21Okay.
11:22Nice work, but next time, not in front of the lady.
11:26Cos we are strictly business.
11:28She...
11:30She is strictly pleasure.
11:32You got it?
11:33Mm.
11:34Yeah.
11:35I appreciate that you normally settle up at the end of the month, Bernard, but please...
11:39Hey.
11:40Oh, hey.
11:41I wasn't expecting to see you today.
11:42Have you got a minute?
11:43Yeah, is everything okay?
11:44Yeah, not really.
11:45Ah.
11:46Well, I'll put the kettle on.
11:47No need.
11:48I can't really stop that long.
11:49Um.
11:50I'm sorry to have to ask you this, but, er...
11:51I'm sorry to have to ask you this, but, er...
11:52I'm sorry to have to ask you this, but, er...
11:53your account with us, there is...
12:16an outstanding balance.
12:18Yeah, I know that.
12:19And I spoke to Paddy last week, and he said,
12:20and he said we can wait until I get the cash for the bullocks that I'm sending to auction.
12:23Right, I'm afraid circumstances have changed since he told you that,
12:26so if you could possibly settle up sooner.
12:29Er, yeah, sure I can.
12:31The auction starts in a week's time.
12:33Right, sooner, as in today.
12:37Oh.
12:38Erm, that's quite a few thousand pounds.
12:42How do you expect me to get my hands on that kind of money?
12:44Well, with all due respect, Moira, we have done the work, provided the service.
12:47Rona, you know the pressures I've been under.
12:51Every farmer's the same.
12:54But I've got another 21 days to pay.
12:57It's all there in black and white on your latest statement.
12:59You owe us a little over three thousand pounds, Moira.
13:01I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just, I really need that money.
13:05Why? What's wrong?
13:07Just money's a bit tight right now, you know?
13:10I was hoping that if I got some of my clients to pay early,
13:13we could have a payout before the end of the year.
13:15OK, well, me and Cain, we can talk to the family.
13:19You're not on your own.
13:20No, no, sorry, just, er, forget I said anything.
13:22Forget I even asked, OK, sorry.
13:23You're such a generous soul, you know, making amends with Marlon.
13:37I mean, the last thing he needs is a, is a fight with an insurance company.
13:41There's no need to put a mate through that.
13:42And he's been through so much with April, and now Dylan.
13:46Any news from the hospital?
13:50No.
13:51I heard Dylan's in a, induced coma.
13:54Oh, such a terrible business.
13:56How's April coping?
13:58Pretty much as you'd expect.
14:01Ah, here, so we've got a medium for you, rare for you.
14:04Oh, no, Marlon, it's the other way round.
14:06Oh, sorry.
14:07Oh, sorry.
14:09You OK, mate?
14:11I'll get you some more colouring.
14:14How long?
14:15You should try taking things a bit easier.
14:18I'll bear that in mind.
14:20Enjoy.
14:23Oh, this looks so nice.
14:38Hello?
14:39Hi.
14:40Hello.
14:41Um.
14:42Mate.
14:44What were you watching?
14:45Er, nothing.
14:47Oh, um, I heard the end credits of A Christmas Carol.
14:50Yeah, well, it was, er, his idea.
14:51He wanted to know what happened.
14:53Well, couldn't you just read the book I lent him?
14:55Yeah, well, I give it a go.
14:56It's just, you know, like, books and old stories, history.
14:58It's, it's not my thing.
15:00What, and you think Die Hard's my thing?
15:02Whoa.
15:02Louis, a classic.
15:04What's not to like?
15:05I just didn't want you to think it didn't matter to me what matters to you.
15:07Yeah.
15:08And the book and the film are the same, right?
15:10Yeah, well, I get you didn't want to let me down, but if you didn't want to read the book, you could have just told me.
15:16Sorry, mate, I didn't realise it was such a big deal.
15:23Yeah, well, it's not.
15:25All right?
15:28Dotty can hardly contain herself, you know.
15:30It's all about Elf on the Shelf and has she been good enough for a proper present?
15:35And what about you?
15:37What about me?
15:37Nice, or naughty, or both.
15:43Oh, them two should get a room.
15:46Yeah, they should.
15:47Rooms in separate countries.
15:50It would be nice to have someone to treat this Christmas as well as Mum.
15:53So I've come into a bit of cash and it'll be the first time in a long time I've been able to splash out.
15:58Oh, you're such a thoughtful son, you know that, don't you?
16:03Kills me, seeing them together.
16:05Yeah.
16:06You know there's nothing we can do, not yet.
16:09It's Moira paid up.
16:11Oh.
16:12Sword in hand.
16:13It should be sorted by the end of the day.
16:16We're almost there.
16:17I opened that account fully intending to make you aware of what I'd done.
16:27I needed to optimise my tax status.
16:31I need to be able to deposit further sums with a trusted friend.
16:39You have been my rock these last few months and I can't tell you how grateful I am to have you in my life.
16:48Right back at you.
16:50Right?
16:52But there's no need for all of this skullduggery.
16:54If you needed help, you just have to ask.
16:57I have worked hard all my life.
17:00Paid all my dues.
17:02And all I need to do now is hand over that legacy.
17:06Will you help me?
17:09Please.
17:10Well, now that I know where you're coming from and you've been honest with me 100%.
17:17If I were you, I would go large or go home.
17:22Oh.
17:23I'm...
17:24What does that exactly mean?
17:27I'm more than all in.
17:28But I have a plan.
17:35Watch this space.
17:41I got your text.
17:43Had to break off my date.
17:46Ah.
17:46Your cash.
17:48It's all here.
17:51Nice one.
17:53Hmm.
17:54I knew you had it in you.
17:55So that's it, yeah?
17:56We're done.
17:57It's all over.
17:58You've got what you wanted, so please just let us get on with our lives.
18:02And why would I want to do that?
18:06Because I've just handed off for 20 grand.
18:09And it will come in very handy at Christmas.
18:11No, that was the deal.
18:12He asked you what it would take to get you out of our lives.
18:16Well, I may have named a price.
18:18Yeah.
18:19And you may have thought we had done a deal, but I don't ever remember agreeing to your terms.
18:24No, no.
18:25Then I want that back every penny!
18:27It's a bit late for that.
18:28It's very generous.
18:28No, come on, Osh!
18:32Next time, get it in writing.
18:37I'll be in touch.
18:47She came around.
18:48Upstairs.
18:51Everything started?
18:52I got her to promise to go to the Christmas fair.
18:54Oh, result.
18:55Yeah, she's only doing it as a photo opportunity, mind.
18:57You were right.
18:58She don't care about them sick kiddies or about any of us.
19:01I've told you.
19:03You're not family to her.
19:04You just clean her bogs.
19:05She's had me grovelling round on the floor this morning, cleaning up glitter.
19:08Jo, she's always messing with me head about me job.
19:11Friends don't do stuff like that.
19:12She's got more money than she can count, and we need it.
19:15Yeah.
19:16Get the electrics sorted and have an ace Christmas.
19:18And Kim will be none the wiser.
19:20Okay, technically it might be a crime, but it's a victimless one.
19:23Yeah.
19:24Unless you're a pheasant.
19:26So, I can tell Oliver and his mates were on.
19:28We're on.
19:29Oh, Sam.
19:33Always lovely to see you.
19:36But I did ask you to do a thorough check of the grounds.
19:39Make sure we're secure against poachers.
19:42On it.
19:42Soz.
19:43So, it's...
19:44Oh, and Lydia, I'm afraid there's still bits of sellotape stuck in a sitting room rug.
19:51I'll do that right now.
19:52PHONE RINGS
19:53Oh.
19:58Hey.
20:00Yes, thanks for confirming the arrangements.
20:04I owe you a case of champagne, at the very least.
20:08Oh, it's going to make my friend's day tomorrow.
20:13All her dreams are going to come true.
20:17I should have listened to you.
20:19Why did we even try to engage?
20:21Because we were desperate.
20:23Because paying Ray off was the only way we could think of to keep April from the streets and our family safe.
20:28I know about where we started.
20:31Or we would be, if I didn't owe the bank ten grand, I might as well set that cash on fire.
20:34He's never going to leave us alone.
20:35Mara.
20:35He's going to come back. He's going to want more. What do we do?
20:39I'm sorry you took that money from the surgery.
20:40Paddy and Vanessa are going to notice.
20:42How do we even begin to explain it?
20:48I didn't get that money from work.
20:50I tried to get the money off of our clients, but nobody has that kind of cash this time of year.
20:56Oh, what the heck have you done?
20:59I organised a payday loan.
21:01We were out of options.
21:02The clock was ticking.
21:04You took a million percent payday loan.
21:06And you say you pay it back.
21:07When?
21:08Not for a while.
21:09And then how much is it going to be?
21:10We've no way of paying that money back.
21:11The interest is going to keep going up.
21:12We're going to be bankrupt.
21:13I was desperate.
21:14We needed to find the money.
21:17It's the ultimate irony, isn't it?
21:18Isn't it?
21:19We keep paying him and his mum so they can keep track of our every move.
21:23They can keep us living in fear.
