00:24Which one do you like next?
00:25That one?
00:27There you go.
00:28You can't eat up, otherwise you'll have no energy for playtime.
00:31Playtime?
00:32Well, recess, hanging out time, whatever.
00:34No one to hang out with?
00:36Well, they'll be nicer girls at school.
00:39There's still time yet. You don't break up till next week, do you?
00:42Yeah.
00:43You could invite them round over Christmas.
00:45The nice girls, not the mean ones.
00:47Right, Missy, what do you think?
00:49This sparkling dress and which shoes?
00:52These, okay.
00:54Oh, these?
00:55They're bullies!
00:58Christmas is going to be rubbish.
01:00Mum locked up.
01:01Well, you'll see, eh?
01:02Not on Christmas Day.
01:04Well, we could take you to visit, couldn't we?
01:07Yeah.
01:08Did you hear that?
01:09Oh, is that the time?
01:10Right, come on, bling off, hands washed, teeth brushed.
01:13Right, shoes off.
01:14Yeah.
01:15Come on, then.
01:16Chop, chop.
01:17What do you say that for?
01:18It might be bought up.
01:19Bought up?
01:20It's not La Mis.
01:25You can.
01:26Oh, you're an absolute legend.
01:27Thank you so much.
01:28I've got to go.
01:29All right, I'll see you later.
01:30Thanks.
01:31Who's that?
01:32No one.
01:33Oh, I want you home by, er, half three today.
01:36No later.
01:37You're joking, aren't you?
01:38Got Ellen Bounds in.
01:39A quarter.
01:40Pretty curly blow.
01:41You know what she's like.
01:42No, no, it's fine.
01:43Audrey's covering.
01:44Actually, make it 20 past three.
01:45That way you can, er, freshen the old coffee breath.
01:48Well, I'm on a promise.
01:50Oh.
01:51Am I?
01:53Does Gran know that she's covering for, er,
01:56her little afternoon delight?
01:58Oh, don't be late.
02:04So, what's it to be?
02:06Fireworks or turtle doves?
02:09Both.
02:10Mmm.
02:11That might be a little bit tacky.
02:13Er...
02:14Okay, well, turtle doves are better for the environment,
02:16so, you know.
02:17Yes, but fireworks don't plop on your head.
02:21Hmm.
02:22Fireworks.
02:23Will you, er, tell the planner?
02:25Yep.
02:26Great.
02:30Er, you crack on and get off.
02:31Oh, how long will you be?
02:33Er, not long.
02:34The council will block the, er, development,
02:36even though it's in a brownfield site.
02:37Right, well, I'll call her now.
02:38Oh.
02:39The poor girl.
02:40Her out sinks every time she sees it's from me.
02:43Oh, rearrange the wedding, Debbie.
02:45In three weeks, Debbie.
02:46Yes, of course, Debbie.
02:48Anything you say, Debbie.
02:50She adores you.
02:52We all do.
02:54Love you.
02:55Love you too.
02:56Love you, love you, love you.
02:57Love you.
02:58Yeah, of course.
02:59There you go.
03:00All right.
03:01That way I need help me.
03:02But I'll go.
03:03I've written a letter of Ray.
03:04I can tell you about that.
03:05You get back, Deb.
03:06I can tell you about that.
03:07Hi.
03:08I've written a letter of Ray.
03:09I've written a letter of Ray.
03:10Have your follow up.
03:12You get back, Deb, please.
03:14Weiss, weiss.
03:15I've written a letter of Ray.
03:16PHONE RINGS
03:31Hey!
03:34It's my favourite wedding planner.
03:37Yeah, I was just about to call you.
03:40Well, you know when I said we wouldn't be doing anything else now
03:44regarding the wedding, yeah?
03:46I lied.
03:53Hiya.
04:06I'm in the bad books.
04:08So, Carla walks me into a trap,
04:10pretends to be drunk as a skunk
04:12and I'm the one you're sulking at.
04:15No.
04:16Not sulking.
04:17I'm just sick of your games.
04:19You know, and I'm sick of being stuck in the middle.
04:21You and Carla, you and Betsy.
04:23Who made me referee?
04:24It was always gonna be hard, breaking up with someone,
04:27even if she wasn't right for you.
04:28I will not take relationship advice from you.
04:31Not in Carla's house.
04:33Well, I'm in your half.
04:37Not anywhere.
04:43How are ya?
04:45Do you know the six root causes of clutter and how to tackle it, Roy?
04:49I can't see the veggies.
04:50Don't be getting into decluttering.
04:52You might get a taste for it.
04:53With my addictive personality, yeah.
04:55I might decal to you.
04:56Then where would you be?
04:58You're sick of staring at the same four walls.
05:00Yeah, I know.
05:01Oh, thanks, Roy.
05:02That was right.
05:03Right, we'll have a frothy coffee for his lordship.
05:05I'll get these in, Roy.
05:07And Fizz sure don't want anything else?
05:09A couple of sticky buns.
05:10Girls will wolf them down if you don't.
05:11We can run to a couple of coffees.
05:14Ty.
05:16Cheers.
05:17Sorry.
05:18He's been on the phone all morning,
05:20trying to chase the police about the accident.
05:22It wasn't an accident.
05:23Get the hit and run.
05:25Five unreturned calls I've had.
05:27And don't say no news is good news.
05:28You'll still get compensation, though.
05:30Yeah, we should do, but it's gonna take yonks,
05:32so we're still gonna be out of pocket.
05:35Yeah, it's not compensation you want, though, is it?
05:38You want justice, right?
05:40Yeah, exactly.
05:45There's a stuff in the act.
05:48The hospital said to bring personal stuff.
05:51Reminders of what it's got to live for.
05:56Gaffer always said she was her daddy's girl.
05:59I love Ambleside, mate.
06:00Coniston.
06:02Is it?
06:03I don't know why I said Ambleside.
06:06I suppose that'll be the house hunting on hold.
06:08Not till he gets back on his feet.
06:10We bought it last year.
06:12About this place.
06:15Thanks for this.
06:17I'll tell Jerome you're asking after him.
06:19Yeah.
06:20D.C. Green.
06:21Can you pass me some more envelopes, please?
06:36Okay.
06:37Well, no flies on you, Debs.
06:38Yes.
06:41Well, there's one here that's killing me.
06:43I know you said you wanted fireworks, but Deb, um...
06:47Well, just let me explain yourself.
06:49Abby ripped the family apart.
06:51Oh, blaming the woman now, are we?
06:52Well, I'd better get to work.
06:55Whatever her reasons, Jack and Alfie lived like brothers.
06:58Now they're split too, you know?
07:01Do you not think I've fretted over this?
07:04If the wedding was like a year away once the dust is settled,
07:07but it's next month.
07:09Deb, you have?
07:10Yeah, Abby.
07:11Do not be saying this is my illness talking.
07:13Okay, okay.
07:15Kevin won't stand for it, and we shouldn't ask him to, either.
07:20Yeah, but we are where we are.
07:23It's not just some one-night stand, is it?
07:25They're living together.
07:27And Abby did help find the venue for us.
07:30Carl's gonna want her there by his side.
07:33So you want Carl there more than Kevin?
07:34No!
07:36That's what this is saying.
07:37I want both of them there, walking me down the aisle.
07:44Oh, Ronnie.
07:47This wedding, it's about us, isn't it?
07:51Eh?
07:52Me and you.
07:54It's a celebration of our life together.
07:57Now, let's have it right.
07:59Kevin and Carl, they're grown-ups, aren't they?
08:02Are you telling me they're not going to
08:04just be civil with each other for one day?
08:07One day?
08:09Well, surely they can do that.
08:11Eh?
08:12For me.
08:13I've got to leave my lap charge here.
08:19Oh, I've both set the hotel with a scream.
08:22I'm just in the middle of a rather large, lumpish border.
08:24Oh, okay, I'll wait, I'll wait.
08:28Oh, it's not here.
08:29Mrs Connor joined the planning committee at 12.51 hours.
08:33What?
08:34I've got minutes in anything.
08:36Party checklist.
08:37You said people could leave early
08:38so folk had time to get doled up.
08:40If you don't believe me, Fizz was there.
08:41I believe you.
08:42Well, you've been a bit of a rap...
08:43er...
08:44off radar lately.
08:46Was she going to say I'm a rap bag then?
08:47I think she was saying that, yeah.
08:49Here we are.
08:50One.
08:51Launcher order.
08:52And...
08:53Cheers, Roy.
08:54See you under the glitter bar, Mrs C.
08:55Yeah.
08:56Maybe I should go off to Lanzarote by myself.
08:58To that hotel.
08:59Give me Eddie Wobble.
09:00You know what?
09:01That hotel with Spenny could salvage something, couldn't I?
09:05Mm-hmm.
09:06Do you mean, mm-hmm.
09:07What's that mean, spit it out?
09:09Well, er...
09:11To leave home for a night after an argument is one thing.
09:14To go for a fortnight sends a completely different message.
09:18I don't know.
09:19I don't know.
09:20I don't know.
09:21I don't know.
09:22I don't know.
09:23I don't know.
09:24I don't know.
09:25I don't know.
09:42Oh, come on.
09:44Pick a side.
09:46Pick a side.
09:52Daddy's home, and there's a party in his...
09:54Oh, no, he really does not know.
09:56Surprise!
09:57What are you lot doing here?
09:59We'll read the room.
10:00Yeah, literally.
10:01We're having a baby shower.
10:02Yay!
10:03Since when?
10:04Since this week, when she had the brainwave.
10:06Yeah, careful, they're lethal.
10:08But more-ish.
10:09A toast.
10:11To our little fighter.
10:13Aw.
10:13Cheers.
10:14Cheers.
10:15Cheers.
10:15Cheers.
10:16Cheers.
10:16It's all right.
10:16Just a second.
10:20Hey.
10:21Did you switch the hot water on?
10:24Because flipping Kirk's built a whole sachet of vinegar down me.
10:29I just rung the prison.
10:32No visiting on Christmas Day.
10:34Well, it's full.
10:36They don't do it anymore.
10:37They can't get the stuff.
10:38They all want to be at home with their families.
10:40Go on.
10:41Say it.
10:43Told you so.
10:44Well, you meant well.
10:46Don't be nice to me, Tim.
10:49I'm an idiot.
10:50First rule of parenting is don't promise something you can't deliver.
10:56Well, the kids will understand.
10:57No, they won't.
10:59They're going to be devastated.
11:01Yet another adult who's let them down.
11:03Why don't you go and run a bath and I'll bring you a nice glass of wine?
11:06No, I'm not swanning off to some party.
11:11Well, you organised it.
11:13What, break their hearts and then waltz off in sequins?
11:18Well, we'll tell them tomorrow.
11:20One more night work, will it?
11:22No, Tim.
11:22This is my mess.
11:24And I need to be here to mop it up.
11:28Me own sister's wedding.
11:29I don't need an invitation.
11:32How did you expect me to invite you then, eh?
11:35WhatsApp?
11:36Oh, well, it can fight for attention along with all three of my Christmas cards.
11:40One of them's off the dentist.
11:42I'm still going to need you to RSVP me for the caterers.
11:47Yeah, I'm coming.
11:48Of course I'm coming.
11:51What, you want him to water you down the aisle?
11:53Well, even I'll admit, he'll look better on the photos.
11:59No, it's, erm, it's not that.
12:03I wanted to ask you.
12:06Can I put Abby on the invitation?
12:11Carl's invitation is plus one.
12:14Well, it must have crossed your mind.
12:15No.
12:18Kev, they're living together.
12:19It's not just some flash in the pan.
12:21And you're my only sister, mind you.
12:23He's always been your blue eye.
12:25No, he hasn't.
12:26I love both of you.
12:28I can't.
12:30Well, just think about it.
12:32Yeah?
12:34I mean, I don't know how much longer my memory's going to last.
12:40Don't.
12:40Don't use the dementia.
12:43How can I not?
12:45It's one day.
12:47A few hours out of your life.
12:49No.
12:50It'll be hell.
12:50A lot can change in a month.
12:54You might have met someone by then.
12:57I know it's unfair, Kev, but life is unfair.
13:01Right, do you know what I'm going to do?
13:03I'm going to beg you.
13:05Kevin.
13:07Please come.
13:09Please come to my wedding.
13:10For me?
13:11Kevin, please.
13:16Go ahead.
13:18Invite her.
13:21But don't expect me there.
13:43You scared me.
13:57You scared me.
14:03You're back.
14:05She's at the gym.
14:08You want something?
14:10Do I want something while I only just...
14:13I've come home to, you know, where I live.
14:16Ouch.
14:18Mm-hm.
14:19Ooh, actually, if you are back,
14:21the washing machine needs sorting,
14:23all my clothes are kind of smelly, musty.
14:26Are they now?
14:28I'll ask Jeeves to have a look at it.
14:30Thanks.
14:31How long might she be at the gym?
14:34Honestly, no clue.
14:36But then again, I have no clue about anything.
14:40Like you.
14:42And her.
14:43Well, you made it pretty clear
14:47which side you're on and it ain't mine.
14:50I'm not having a pop.
14:54Because I love you.
14:57I love you.
14:58And, you know, I'm glad
14:59that you've been able to give
15:01your mum a move on.
15:04It's a good thing.
15:05Isn't it?
15:06But, you know, your mum, Lisa,
15:17she's got a lot of battle scars.
15:24And, you know,
15:25when you fly the nest,
15:27I really want to make sure that she's okay.
15:29that's all.
15:38I'll take this stuff upstairs.
15:40Um,
15:42can you ask Jeeves
15:43if he can help me with my coursework?
15:45Because it's due next Friday
15:46and I can't be bothered.
15:47I'll do.
15:54Come on.
15:54Come on.
15:55You're back.
16:04Never should have left.
16:08Shown in number five.
16:10Oh, sorry, Gary, love, you're not on there.
16:12Oh, yeah. If we'd have had more time, we would have asked Anna.
16:15Don't worry about it. Get in!
16:17I mean, that's not even me.
16:19Yeah, it is.
16:20It's Nick. I mean, there's no baby pictures of me.
16:23It's like third child syndrome, isn't it?
16:25That a thing.
16:26Aw, well, your third child's going to have photographs taken of her 24-7.
16:31You've been in one of these before?
16:33No.
16:35No, it's women's stuff, isn't it?
16:37A bit like bottomless brunch.
16:40But what do I know?
16:41I'm just a caveman, according to Maria.
16:44Right.
16:45Oh, no, no, no, don't be bending.
16:47No, don't be doing that.
16:48I don't know.
16:49So, what does the winner get?
16:51Er, godmother.
16:52Er, why not?
16:53Well, I'm winning, then.
16:55I'm winning this.
16:55OK.
16:57Was there any wonder she wanted to keep it a surprise?
16:59What's up with your face?
17:01What?
17:02What's up?
17:03Would you not think we deserve a bit of fun?
17:06I'll have to find out the baby's at risk.
17:08All right.
17:09She's a baby first.
17:10She's at risk second.
17:12Is this Nick's doing?
17:13Mr. Doom and Gloom.
17:14What's he been saying?
17:16No.
17:16I mean, is this Bethany's doing?
17:18What are folk going to say to you to make you want to do this?
17:21Look, I get it, all right?
17:23And I'm going to play along like everyone else, but I mean, it's just...
17:26What, tempting fate?
17:29No, just icky.
17:31Icky?
17:31Yeah.
17:32Like, forced.
17:33Weird.
17:34But, I mean, just read the room.
17:38OK.
17:39Maria's got it.
17:40Are you going to have a go?
17:41Oh, David needs a go.
17:42Yeah, yeah.
17:42Come on, you get to be gone.
17:43We'll take a break if you want.
17:44Um, see you later.
17:56Company director, Miss Leah Costello.
18:00Laney NW Incorporated only.
18:02Caller, it's Kit.
18:25Ring me back as soon as you get this.
18:27The Costellos bought a house last year, Ravensgill on Coniston Lakefront, just shy of a million quid.
18:33It was registered to a limited company with Leah as the director, right?
18:37But just wait for the best bit.
18:38The company was incorporated in 2021 on the 17th of December.
18:43That's a week after Becky's death.
18:46It's a bit of a coincidence, eh?
18:48Just ring me back.
18:49OK, then.
18:57Ding, ding.
18:57Second's out, aren't you?
18:58I've not come to fight.
19:00I haven't.
19:04In fact, I...
19:05I was going to jet off to Lanzarote, but...
19:09Wow.
19:10Waste not, won't I?
19:11But I didn't.
19:15I didn't because I...
19:17I know this is where I belong.
19:20At home with you.
19:24I love you.
19:27I think I always will.
19:34I love you too.
19:38Never stopped.
19:39I didn't think I was a needy person, but I guess I am with you.
19:47But, um, I was kind of hoping for some kind of sign of you to show me that this all is worth hanging on for.
20:08Do you ever wonder what it's like to be me?
20:13Do you think I really want to live like this?
20:15I just think we need to have each other's backs.
20:17Well, if you really had my back, then you would ease off a bit, wouldn't you?
20:21You'd have trusted me, but you don't.
20:24You just want to manage me like one of your machinists.
20:28That's not fair.
20:29You love me, Carla, but not in the way that I need right now.
20:32I'm sorry.
20:33How's that?
20:34I don't...
20:35It's difficult to explain.
20:37We'll try.
20:38Well, maybe with a bit more understanding.
20:40Lisa, I literally bend over backwards for you.
20:42I mean, I'm a mug, but I do it because it makes your life easier.
20:47Well, let's just admit it.
20:55We've seen the worst of each other, and now we can't go back.
20:58Yes, we can.
20:59Of course we can.
21:00Carla, we're chasing a dream, aren't we?
21:01What?
21:02And when we're apart, this all seems possible, but then as soon as we're back in the same room together, I mean, look at us.
21:08Look at us.
21:15I'm done.
21:17We're done.
21:18You're saying we're done, Lisa?
21:26Sorry.
21:26I'm sorry.
21:27Bye.
22:27Oh, Mrs. Connor, are you missing Secret Santa?
22:31It's your turn.
22:32You have it, Kirk. It's just a Malbec.
22:36Hey, how did you know that?
22:38Pick me on me, might be out.
22:40It's the Christmas party.
22:42I know, I've just got a bit of salt out here.
22:43Oh, you are going to come to the bistro later, though, aren't you?
22:46Maybe, yeah.
22:48Oh, canaries.
22:50Very nice. Nice little Christmas treat.
22:54Quite decided, yeah.
23:01Sorry, guys, do you mind if I just chill?
23:03Oh, sorry, sorry, yeah.
23:04Canaries? I didn't know she liked birds.
23:08Carla, it's Kate.
23:09Bring me back as soon as you get this.
23:12Costello's bought an house last year, Ravensgill and Coniston Lake.
23:16Is that what you want?
23:22Sweetheart, none of this is what I really want.
23:25But we just can't keep having the same arguments over and over and over again.
23:29It's exhausting.
23:31Yeah.
23:32I'm not surprised.
23:34I've got it.
23:36Obviously.
23:37But it's just, it's infuriating.
23:39Talking about me?
23:41No.
23:42Not this time.
23:44Carla?
23:47What happened?
23:49Same thing that always happens.
23:54I'm sorry.
23:55But I'm sure you can reason with her.
23:57Oh, don't pretend like this isn't exactly what you wanted.
24:04That ship has sailed.
24:07Or should I say plane?
24:09What do you mean?
24:10She'll be on her way to the airport now.
24:12She's going to Lanzarote.
24:14What, on her own?
24:19Merry Christmas, Lise.
24:23Maybe this is for the best.
24:25Yeah.
24:26Well, you would say that, wouldn't you?
24:27Forget about me and you.
24:28Look, this whole thing is seriously stressing you out.
24:32A break from each other is probably exactly what you two need.
24:34Oh, she does have a point.
24:40Hiya.
24:41Mike.
24:43Don't go rummaging in the fridge.
24:45You'll spoil your tea.
24:46What are we having?
24:47I don't know.
24:48Well, might just have a yoghurt.
24:49I said leave it.
24:50I said leave it.
24:52What's up with you?
24:56Your Auntie Debbie wants us all to go to a wedding.
25:00And?
25:00All of us.
25:01Me, you, Abbie.
25:03Your Uncle Carl.
25:04So what?
25:05So I'm not in a mood for partying with them two right now.
25:09Who cares about what you want?
25:11Excuse me?
25:14I feel bad for you, Dad.
25:16But it's Auntie Debbie's wedding.
25:19You need to show her that you care about what she wants.
25:22You might not get many more chances.
25:33I don't know.
25:34I give up.
25:35Oh, no, Gary, you can't, because then David's team wins.
25:37It stinks, Sarah.
25:38Come on, Gary, we've all been there.
25:40You've had strawberry jam.
25:42Yeah, and I ate strawberry jam.
25:44Rasputin or die.
25:46Since when?
25:47Well, mine was fine.
25:48Hummus.
25:49Yeah, all the vegan ones smelled nice.
25:51Top up.
25:52Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.
25:53I wasn't thinking.
25:54What do you want?
25:55I've got apple cheese.
25:56I don't know, is it?
25:58Anchovies.
25:58No.
25:59You lose, we win.
26:00Do you hear that, babe?
26:01We're the champion nappy sniffers.
26:04Did that sound better in your red?
26:05So what was it?
26:06Peanut butter.
26:08That?
26:08That was not peanut butter.
26:09Right, let's do the presents.
26:11It says here, six peanut butter.
26:13It was peanut butter, but I added a few extras for Gary.
26:16Like what?
26:17No, nothing.
26:18Just fish paste, vinegar, chilli sauce and an egg.
26:21Why would you do that?
26:22Ew, David.
26:23What?
26:23I mean, the egg was fresh.
26:24Nearly.
26:25Come on, forget rotten eggs.
26:26Let's go and do prezzies.
26:27I'm not going to use a good egg, am I?
26:28Well, you didn't have to use any eggs, Dave.
26:30Oh, gross.
26:31Okay, so I think this is Toya and Nick, yeah?
26:34But you've already got us something.
26:35Oh, it's just a little something extra.
26:38Ooh.
26:40Spa vouchers.
26:41Honestly, it's amazing.
26:42And the rest wants to die for, isn't it?
26:44Yeah, well, he could do with a parsnip.
26:46I'll send the chef on a scouting mission.
26:48Can't wait.
26:49Right, this one, not sure.
26:50Oh, yeah, no, that's from us.
26:52Oh, like a baby grow thing.
27:00Oh, Wethy County.
27:01Oh, that's so cute.
27:02Yeah, it really is.
27:04It's cute.
27:04I'll pop the receipt in the bag for you.
27:06The receipt?
27:07Well, you never know.
27:08She might be a United fan.
27:10Why would I need a receipt?
27:13I don't know.
27:13Just, like, in case it doesn't fit or something.
27:15I don't know.
27:15I mean, it looks like it could fit a three-month-old.
27:18You know, she's going to grow into it eventually.
27:20I'm sorry, I just say always get a good receipt.
27:22You know what?
27:22Will you just get out?
27:23What?
27:24No, all of you, just go, will you?
27:26Look, you're all acting like the baby's dead already.
27:28Will you just go?
27:29No, Shona, no, Shona.
27:30Just go!
27:31Calm down.
27:31You all go!
27:37No, I'm afraid the coffin gets cremated too.
27:42I'm not sure why you'd want to keep it.
27:45A bulk case?
27:46Look, Mrs. Maguire, I'm going to have to go.
27:50I've just got another customer in.
27:52And I saw your husband a couple of days ago.
27:54He looked an extremely good health.
27:56So maybe we should be having this discussion a bit further down the line, love.
27:59Yeah?
27:59No?
28:00Goodbye, Mrs. Maguire.
28:01Oh, honestly.
28:03Now, now, now.
28:04This is no way to drum up business, is it?
28:06Oh, Chrissie, it's been non-stop all day long.
28:08I used to hand these cranks over to Tog because he was so good with them.
28:11What can one do?
28:12Well, that was a rhetorical question, love.
28:17Come on.
28:18You've helped out before.
28:20How about your pitching, but in a more official capacity?
28:24Oh, Ray.
28:25Comforting grieving widows ain't exactly my idea of fun.
28:27That's not really meant to be fun, is it?
28:29It's a no from me, darling.
28:31Besides which, we both know that this is not about you trying to recruit a new undertaker.
28:37Isn't it?
28:38Yeah.
28:39Even if I started working here full-time, it wouldn't solve your problem.
28:43What is my problem?
28:45You're still worrying about Todd.
28:51Pank lender, please.
28:52Right, love.
28:55Thanks for coming.
28:56What do you want, Kev?
28:57I've got a wedding to plan, whether you're coming or not.
29:00I am.
29:02What?
29:02Look, if Abby and Carl's there, well, it's your big day.
29:10Oh, what?
29:12Really?
29:13You're coming?
29:15Thank you so much.
29:16Just don't expect me to be palling up with either of them.
29:19Oh, no.
29:20No, no, no.
29:20Not at all.
29:22Just as long as you're there.
29:23Oh, I wouldn't miss it for anything.
29:25You'd have thought this had happened, eh?
29:28It's a miracle you found someone who actually wants to marry you.
29:31I'd tell you off, but I know you're right.
29:35Oh, Kev.
29:38From the bottom of my heart.
29:40He's fine.
29:42Right, well, I best crack on, haven't I?
29:44I've got one very special place setting to cater for now.
29:51I love you.
29:53Love you, sis.
29:55See you later.
29:56Yeah.
29:59You're a good man.
30:00It's on the house.
30:01We're back.
30:06Hey.
30:07I made you a flower.
30:08Oh, thank you.
30:11She wants you to pin it on your party frock.
30:13Oh, thank you so much, but I don't think I'm going to go to the party.
30:17Why not?
30:18Because we're not allowed to go see Mum in prison.
30:20What?
30:21Well, you told them.
30:23No, of course not.
30:25Every time we mention Mum, he'd change the subject.
30:27It was obvious he was hiding something.
30:28Girls, no-one is allowed to visit on Christmas.
30:31It's just a rule they have.
30:33Yeah, we'll go as close to the big day as possible.
30:36I promise.
30:37You promised we'd see her on Christmas Day?
30:39Come on, let's sit at the table.
30:44I think you should go take a party.
30:47Do you?
30:48I don't think I should.
30:50But you're putting your party to.
30:53Well, if you think I should go, I will.
31:02Come here.
31:06No, after the meal, I'm gone.
31:09I'm not going to stick around and watch him and her smooching on the dance floor.
31:14Shame.
31:15I was hoping to see your take on the locomotion.
31:17Oh, well, no.
31:18Once I've done my duty, I'm out of there.
31:21Just make me see how you feel on the day.
31:24Carl being invited, I get his blood.
31:28Looks like I'll be seeing you at the wedding then.
31:32Eh?
31:33Debbie wants us all there.
31:34Me, you and Carl.
31:36Really?
31:37Yeah, so try not to ruin that marriage as well, eh?
31:40What can I get you, Abby?
31:41Er, yeah, I was just wondering, um, I don't suppose you've got any shifts going spare, do you?
31:49Well, I wouldn't have thought so.
31:51I can double check with Eva in the back, but I'm pretty sure the answer will be a big fat one.
31:56Could you check, please?
31:59Grab a seat.
32:01Oh, really?
32:02What, I just thought...
32:03So that's it then?
32:05Nothing?
32:06No.
32:06Cheers.
32:08Oh, right, well.
32:09Merry Christmas to you two.
32:12What's up?
32:13Police.
32:15They've dropped my case.
32:16Oh, you're joking?
32:17No.
32:18Turns out you can just leave someone for dead and get away with it.
32:21Have they said why?
32:22No evidence.
32:23So unless the driver walks into the station and gives a confession, they'll get off scot-free?
32:28Oh, I'm sorry, mate.
32:30Hey, you've got your own worries.
32:32Yeah, well, I know who's to blame for mine.
32:36Sorry.
32:37Ah, nah.
32:40Figures.
32:41Um, thanks for asking.
32:42Come on, you've got to admit, it smells pretty fishy.
32:45It seems like a trollman's been, but the point is, I'm done, I told you.
32:49Well, just speak to Costello one more time.
32:51I mean, I'd do it myself, but I'm not 100% sure he'd trust me.
32:53Oh, he's not capable.
32:55Gala, come on.
32:56Look, even if we found a big bag, marked swag with Becky's fingerprints all over it,
33:01she'd still worm her way out.
33:03I mean, she's always one step ahead.
33:05Everyone's got the breaking point.
33:06Well, I might have, you might have, but her,
33:09there's not a hole that she can't worm her way out of.
33:12I mean, just look, dying didn't work.
33:15So you're just going to give up?
33:17No, she's won, all right?
33:19That's it.
33:21Do you know the way Sarah talks about you?
33:22You'd think you were fearless.
33:24Yeah, maybe I was once.
33:25So what are you going to do now?
33:27I've got myself a ton of flights on Zorchie tonight,
33:29and the only thing I've got to really worry about is if I give myself an upgrade.
33:32Carla, we're so close.
33:34You're on your own.
33:36See, I don't believe you.
33:37This is the one chance to get Lisa back,
33:39and you're not even going to try.
33:41Hey, it's Carla Connor again.
34:04Lisa's lane's behind me.
34:06I expect you thought you'd seen the last of me, eh?
34:14Costello.
34:17Remember yesterday when I asked you about Becky?
34:22You kind of gave me a message.
34:25Hill.
34:27Yeah?
34:29Rhubarb.
34:30Yeah.
34:32Okay, I have no idea what they mean.
34:35Okay, do they belong to a password for your laptop or something,
34:41or like a code of a case you were working on?
34:46Please.
34:47Pardon?
34:48Say again.
34:49Please.
34:49They call it word salad.
34:53Sorry?
34:54The stroke.
34:55Even if he knows what he wants to say,
34:58the wrong word can still come out.
35:06Right.
35:08You staying long, love?
35:09Can I get you a cup of tea?
35:10No.
35:12It's okay.
35:13I'll get one on the plane.
35:18Good luck, mate.
35:19Hi, Carla.
35:32I've just been to the factory and it's all locked up, so, uh...
35:34Well, I'm guessing you're on your way to the airport, then.
35:39Look, please.
35:42Don't get on that plane.
35:43The thought of spending Christmas without you here, I just...
35:50I just can't leave things the way we did.
35:56I love you.
36:00And I can't bear the thought of not having you in my life.
36:04Please.
36:06Call me back.
36:07Oh, that's brilliant.
36:14I reckon I'd make a good sunset.
36:17I think that job's taken.
36:18No, like when he retires.
36:21You have to be part elf to qualify for that.
36:25Oh, go on, Kirk.
36:26Tell us why you think you'd be good at it.
36:28We've got a line coming.
36:29Oh, like what?
36:31We're both delivery men for a start.
36:33Oh, yeah, that's true.
36:35Yeah.
36:35So, I know all the shortcuts around it.
36:38Yeah, that wouldn't help much in Australia.
36:41And I like milk and biscuits.
36:43Stretching it now.
36:43Yeah.
36:44And he's got a reindeer called Donna,
36:48and I live above Prima Donna.
36:51The job's as good as yours, Kirk.
36:54Wait, you don't think Donna meat is made from reindeer, do you?
36:58No.
36:58No, definitely not, Kirk.
37:00Hey, everyone.
37:01How was the meal?
37:02Oh, it was great.
37:03Yeah, hey, how was Shona's baby shower?
37:05Oh, it was more of a storm than the showers.
37:09Where's Carla?
37:10Well, she could be anywhere over the Mediterranean by now.
37:13What?
37:13According to these two, she's gone to the Canaries.
37:16Yeah, Lanzarote.
37:18Right.
37:18But she did promise us a couple of free drinks.
37:21Yeah, she did.
37:22Company credit card, please.
37:24Oh, yes, I bought it.
37:25Woo!
37:26What's that pain?
37:27Why are they called reindeer anyway?
37:30Shouldn't it be snow day?
37:32Oh, Kirk.
37:36I apologise to Maria.
37:40I think she knows you weren't shouting at her, really.
37:43It gives you self you need to have a word with.
37:54Look, I'll agree to do all the normal stuff, right?
37:58All the milestones, all the appointments, all normal, right?
38:02If you agree that it's OK to be scared.
38:09I'm not scared.
38:11What?
38:11It's all right if you are.
38:12No.
38:14I can't be scared.
38:16Why not?
38:17Because if I'm scared, it's like admitting that it could happen.
38:21Well, I thought you were being realistic.
38:23Well, I lied.
38:23Well, I'm scared.
38:29You know, we can be scared together.
38:36So what's the next class?
38:39Centenatal class at the community centre.
38:41What's that like, stretching or not?
38:48Probably a bit of that.
38:49You don't have to come.
38:52Try and stop me.
38:53Hi.
38:59How are you all back early?
39:01Yeah, I thought I might catch the girls before bedtime.
39:04Oh, well, Shanice is fast asleep and Joni's not been downstairs since she left.
39:10Well, you're probably Blair and I should probably think she's been punished.
39:14What, by us?
39:16Well, I suppose punishment is the only language she knows.
39:20She was taken away from Shanice and her parents were taken away from her.
39:23All she can see is the world trying to hurt her.
39:27Well, we'll have to show her that she's wrong then, won't we?
39:29How?
39:30I don't know.
39:31But if we can't get a couple of kids to love Christmas, we need to take a long, hard look at ourselves.
39:41Hey.
39:43Where are you off to?
39:45Airport.
39:46What? Why?
39:47Well, I need to stop her.
39:48Do you even know what flight she's on?
39:51Yeah, I've checked. There's only one today.
39:52Okay, wait. Have you thought this through?
39:54What is there to think about? I don't want her to go.
39:56So what? You're just going to turn up and make a big scene at the airport?
39:59Do you think that's what she wants?
40:00Well, I need to do something.
40:02Okay, just take a breath.
40:03Like, why don't you try phoning her?
40:06No, I've already tried that. I need to see her in person.
40:08I just don't think that's a good idea.
40:11Yeah, well, what's your text?
40:13When?
40:14Five minutes ago.
40:22What does it say?
40:28Enjoy Christmas with Becky and Betsy.
40:30I'm going on holiday.
40:35Please stop calling me.
40:42No.
40:43Come on.
40:44Come here.
40:45It's okay.
40:45You don't understand it.
40:55I understand it, all right. I just don't like it.
40:57What? Explain it to me now.
40:59There's the sound of a clapped-out diesel engine hooked up to a fax.
41:03Phyllis Stein, that is no way to talk about industrial technology.
41:07What's the industry?
41:09Airplug makers?
41:10I don't care what it is.
41:12I'm not having it at my wedding.
41:14Sorry, I'm late.
41:15Oh, here she is.
41:16Hey, have you told me?
41:17No, not yet.
41:18What, about us all going to the wedding?
41:20Yeah, I walked into Kev earlier.
41:22Look, are you sure about it?
41:24Fireworks usually happen outside the venue.
41:26Oh, yeah, that's what we said, isn't it?
41:28Look, if you don't want to go, though...
41:30No, of course I do.
41:31I'm just...
41:32I'm just not sure if I should.
41:34Well, I want you there.
41:37Both of you.
41:37Well, then I would love to.
41:43You don't look very happy about it.
41:45Oh, no, I am.
41:46I really am.
41:47It's just, I, er...
41:49I bumped into Tyrone earlier.
41:51I feel so bad for him.
41:53The police have dropped his case.
41:55I suppose there's not much you can do with a hit and run without a suspect.
41:59So that's it, then?
42:00It's all over?
42:01Officially?
42:02Yep.
42:03No evidence, you said.
42:05Oh, poor Tyrone.
42:06And, er...
42:07He might never know who nearly killed him.
42:14What are you up to?
42:16From my drone.
42:17Oh, yeah, for your geography project.
42:20How's it going?
42:21Yeah, good.
42:23But me and Jack have got tons of footage.
42:24Good.
42:25Well, I hope it's useful for you.
42:26Hey, Gary.
42:27All right, mate?
42:29How was your baby shower?
42:30Oh, don't ask.
42:31Oh, no, I've got to know.
42:33Yeah, well, let's just say you've probably been to more light-hearted funerals.
42:35Oh, dear.
42:37Oh, um, you hadn't spoke to Todd today, have you?
42:40No.
42:40Why?
42:41Because I was running past the flat before and thought I heard some slamming.
42:45Slamming?
42:45Mm, and some shouting.
42:47Probably nothing.
42:48In fact, it might have been coming from the corner shop now I think about it.
42:52Nice one, mate.
42:53All right, come on, drone boy.
42:54Let's get you home.
42:55See you, guys.
42:56Bye.
42:56I think, um, I think perhaps it's time you made that call, love.
43:05Bye, bye.
43:35. . .
44:05. . .
