00:00I
00:30What was it you used to say when we first moved in together?
00:43Christmas Eve calories don't count.
00:45You're very naughty.
00:49I used to like my naughty side.
00:51Can I, um, no.
01:02No, it's not my place.
01:05No, go on.
01:09Listen, I know Carla's the one and everything and she's gorgeous and...
01:15Look, I know what you're going to say.
01:16Well, she's not exactly behaving brilliantly at the moment, is she?
01:21You know, and that's not a criticism.
01:22I know how you feel about her, Becky.
01:24There's absolutely no point in pretending otherwise.
01:26But maybe you could try and forget about her for a few days.
01:29Like, don't let her ruin the holidays.
01:31I've just got a little something.
01:34A little?
01:40That's lovely.
01:41No, I've never forgotten how you like it.
01:43Never forgotten how you like a lot of things.
01:46Oh, it's lovely.
01:52I've got one a bit like it.
01:55I'm told I could wear on like an old married couple.
01:58Tell you what, I was looking online the other day.
02:00You know that place that does ice skating in the grounds of that stately home?
02:03Oh, yeah.
02:04You can sign up for this pass where you can go every day if you like.
02:09Just thought that'd be our Christmas sword.
02:11Dylan, I don't think I can.
02:17Look, I'm going to Spain soon with my auntie and I don't know when I'll be back.
02:22Right, I need to go and do this video call with Gillespie's sale.
02:28I didn't realise the time.
02:30Shall I see you back at the office?
02:31Yeah, I'll be about 20 minutes.
02:32I'm going to pop into the Rovers and have a quick word with Eva first.
02:34Is that a euphemism?
02:37Is it a work thing?
02:38Kind of.
02:39I'll tell you about it later.
02:41Give me a kiss.
02:42Ah.
02:43Needy.
02:44You were asking for a slap.
02:45Hey, I'm going to get struck off.
02:46Beat it.
02:48Hey.
02:48Hi.
02:49Your euphemism just arrived.
02:52Take no notice of her.
02:55Nina, can I get a pack of mint tea, please?
02:57Yeah, sure.
02:57Take a seat.
02:59Is that all right?
03:00Yeah, of course, yeah.
03:01I've got a kettle in the house, no?
03:03Oh, don't.
03:04I just needed five minutes away from the madness.
03:06I was actually going to pop in and have a word with you about what we spoke about yesterday.
03:10Yeah, thank you for being my shoulder to cry on.
03:13I mean, you could do with a couple of sponges up there.
03:16Listen, I hope I'm not speaking out of school here, but I think what you're going through is
03:19you're grieving the loss of your baby.
03:23Yeah.
03:23Yeah, I know.
03:25But I am a strong, independent woman by all accounts,
03:29and I had a right to choose.
03:31I exercised that right, so I should be fine without it.
03:38Listen, I had a client once who was forced into a termination by her husband,
03:42and her way of dealing with the grief was to write a letter to the baby that could have been,
03:46poured her emotions out on the page.
03:48Did it help?
03:49Apparently so, yeah.
03:52I'm not very good at writing letters.
03:55Might be worth a try, though, huh?
03:56Oh, sweetheart, what's wrong?
04:07I just feel a bit weird.
04:10I think Dylan was hinting at us getting serious,
04:12but I said I was going to Spain, and...
04:16Oh, it's...
04:17Oh, boop.
04:18Come here.
04:24What are we going to do with you, eh?
04:26We're going to put you in a bag and...
04:28Oh, no, hold on.
04:29Come here.
04:30Come on.
04:30Come on.
04:31Come on.
04:32All together.
04:33Ready?
04:34We're going to put you in a bag and shake you up.
04:41OK?
04:42No, I'll tell you what, why don't you give me a hand with the mince pies and, um...
04:45Just don't mess them up.
04:47Oh.
04:48What do you want me to do?
04:49Well, you take this pastry cutter,
04:51and...
04:53That's it!
04:54As many of those as you can.
04:58Nothing quite says Christmas like my first sexy snowball of the year.
05:03Mmm.
05:06No, it's not level, though.
05:07So has this got sentimental value, then, this picture?
05:11Yeah, it's my granddad's.
05:12Do you know, when he died, my auntie June said we could take whatever we wanted from the elves.
05:16I made a beeline for that.
05:18It's beautiful, isn't it?
05:20Well, what can I say?
05:23Oh, no, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
05:24Don't turn it on till it's straight.
05:26I'm sorry.
05:27I'm going to spoil the illusion.
05:29No, it's still not straight.
05:33So you were looking forward to Christmas, then?
05:35Torrington services?
05:37Hmm?
05:38Oh, yeah, that's fine.
05:39That's fine.
05:39Leave it there.
05:40Yeah, move away.
05:41No, no, don't touch it!
05:42God, you don't have cause a fuss, you do.
05:44God, just leave it!
05:48Come and sit down.
05:50Oh, come on.
05:52No, no, sit on the floor, please.
05:56Between my legs.
05:57Yes.
05:57Yes.
05:57Yes.
05:57Yes.
05:57Yes.
05:57Yes.
05:57Yes.
05:57Yes.
05:57Yes.
05:57Yes.
05:58Yes.
05:58Yes.
05:58Yes.
05:59Yes.
05:59Yes.
05:59Yes.
06:00Yes.
06:01Yes.
06:02Yes.
06:03Yes.
06:04Yes.
06:05Yes.
06:06Yes.
06:06I am looking forward to it, actually.
06:12Once more with conviction, please, Old Bean.
06:15No, I am.
06:16It's just...
06:17What, you've gone off me?
06:19Yeah, right.
06:19No, it just won't be the same without Mum.
06:24No.
06:25It'll be better.
06:28Sorry?
06:28Oh.
06:30You will be.
06:32If you keep rewriting history.
06:33Look, all you ever did when she was here was complain about her.
06:37It's a funny thing, innit?
06:39The minute that someone moves abroad, they become angelic.
06:43Well, let's be honest, that she was not.
06:46It's been nice being back at work, back into the swing of things.
06:55Was it?
06:56And it'll be nice having a cosy little Christmas, just the two of us.
07:04Hmm.
07:04You know, are you worried about being bored?
07:10Maybe I can do something about that.
07:14Hmm.
07:15And we're going to need batteries for you-know-what.
07:26No, no, not like that.
07:27I charge that every week.
07:28No, for the kids' presents, duh.
07:31Oh, I spy a teenage boy looking for snacks.
07:34I'll see you later.
07:35OK, bye.
07:36Can I have some of these, sir?
07:38Yeah, of course you can.
07:39When there's some gherkins there, you want them.
07:41My lucky day.
07:42What do you think the girls are excited about tomorrow?
07:44Yeah, I think so.
07:46Cos I know we've had our ups and downs, you know, when Jamie trashed the place, but...
07:50Well, you did say you want to get something for Mum from them for Christmas.
07:54I'm on it.
07:55Right, OK.
07:57Look what I've got.
07:59Oh, yeah.
08:00Get a load of that.
08:04Happy Christmas!
08:05Merry Christmas!
08:06Nice to see you.
08:08I love that sweater on you, Bethany.
08:10Oh, you can't beat a good Christmas knee.
08:13Mmm.
08:14Oh, is everything all right there, Mother?
08:18Oh, I just wish Collar would answer an email for once in her life.
08:21Oh, come on.
08:22It is Christmas Eve and she's had holidays.
08:24Oh!
08:25Be careful where you put those huge hands of yours, Daniel.
08:29I never touched her.
08:32So what, this Megan, she stayed over?
08:34Indeed she did.
08:35Aye, aye.
08:36And did the earth move?
08:37Mate, everything moved.
08:38I'll get that table, shall we?
08:40Yeah, I'll be over in a second.
08:43Hey!
08:44How are you?
08:45I'm all right, yeah.
08:46I, um, I wrote that letter.
08:48How was it?
08:49Yeah, I think it helped.
08:50I feel a bit lighter.
08:51Ah, I'm a medical worker.
08:52Oh, Mrs. is here.
08:54You do me a favour and hide this.
08:55Yeah, she's got a present.
08:56Oh.
08:56Hiya.
08:58Hello.
09:00Hiya.
09:01Can I get you both a drink?
09:02Ooh, orange and lemonade, please.
09:04Adam?
09:04I'm OK, thank you.
09:05Yeah, I'm just going to chuck my bag in the back.
09:06Two ticks.
09:09Do you want the pleasure?
09:10Yeah.
09:11All good?
09:11Oh, yeah.
09:13Betsy.
09:14Safely ensconced in a pub in town with her mates.
09:20You OK?
09:22I'm just a bit tense.
09:25Come here.
09:26Come on.
09:30Come on.
09:42Oh, wow.
09:45Those knots.
09:47Does that feel good?
09:51What?
09:51Come on, it's not weird.
09:54It's me, Becky.
09:55OK?
09:56OK?
10:02Is that starting to feel better?
10:04Yeah?
10:05What?
10:06Yeah, I can feel that it is.
10:11Yeah.
10:13Yeah, it feels good.
10:14You need someone to take care of you.
10:20You've been through so much.
10:24We need to...
10:26get rid of this negative energy.
10:31How?
10:31Come on, relax.
10:32Let me take care of you.
10:44Let me take care of you.
10:54No.
10:55Well.
10:56You're welcome.
10:56Right.
11:01Don't stop.
11:06I'm returning to myself...
11:07It's such a moment...
11:08It's like...
11:09You're welcome.
11:11I'm in love.
11:14I'm in love.
11:15I'm in love.
11:17I'm in love.
11:18I'm in love.
11:19I'm in love.
11:19I'm in love.
11:20She's never going to see it.
11:33She doesn't know that, though, does she?
11:35Come on, who's it running for?
11:37Come on, come on.
11:38No, because she's still on good, get it.
11:40Mum!
11:41Mum!
11:42Mum!
11:43Mum!
11:44That was amazing.
11:47The years melted away.
11:50I nearly melted, too.
12:02I never stopped loving you, you know.
12:05That's what you said.
12:07You could say it, too.
12:12No.
12:13No, I know it's a lot.
12:17But, you know, we do need to think about...
12:20Where do we go from here?
12:22I honestly don't know.
12:24We made vows.
12:25We had a kid together.
12:27You know, we built a whole life.
12:32I don't know about you, but I want it back.
12:35Baby steps.
12:36I'll take fetal steps if I have to.
12:40I've lost so much trust.
12:41I'm sorry.
12:43And I still love Carla, too.
12:49Yeah.
12:53Of course.
12:55Complicated Carla.
12:57I'm not being horrible, but which one of us is here?
12:59Carla was just a tourist.
13:06And it looks like she heard the bell ring and finally, well,
13:13finally it was time for her to jump off the bus.
13:17Did you just liken me to a bus?
13:21A very beautiful one.
13:22To Alia.
13:37To my baby.
13:54I am so...
13:57Blimey, who wrapped those and went with this section, eh?
14:17More food?
14:18Well, there by hangs a tail.
14:22Shouldn't be wasting all your money.
14:23I mean, we've still got leftover food.
14:25Can I finish what I'm saying, please?
14:27Sorry.
14:30Look, I know you were disappointed
14:33about having the smallest Christmas on record
14:36without galumping Arlene.
14:38Was I?
14:39So, I have invited some people over for Christmas Day.
14:43Who?
14:44Well...
14:45There's Billy and Summer.
14:50George and Christina.
14:51And, er...
14:53And Glenda.
14:56And they're all excited.
14:57Right.
14:58Ask me why they're all excited.
15:01Hmm?
15:02Because?
15:04Because you're doing the cooking.
15:07That's brilliant, isn't it?
15:12Right.
15:13I have got...
15:14five more bags of shopping outside.
15:16Do you want to pop outside and get them
15:17before someone nicks them?
15:18Hmm?
15:19Come on.
15:22Hurry up.
15:30Do you think you should call it a night, James?
15:32These sweets, free.
15:34That's it bouncing on four-poster.
15:36I'm working, pal.
15:38And I think you should go home.
15:39You've had a fair few.
15:40I can't keep up with you.
15:41Last night you wanted to meet up
15:42and now you're acting like you never sent me
15:44that thirsty text.
15:45And you know what?
15:47Forget it.
15:47There's nothing to forget.
15:49Oh, really?
15:49Isn't there?
15:50Go home, James.
15:51You're like an aircon unit.
15:53I'm really not.
15:54Blow hot, blow cold.
15:56That's such a bad analogy.
15:57James, go home.
15:59Is this because I couldn't see you last night?
16:01Oh, you know what?
16:02I'm done.
16:03For good.
16:04I mean it.
16:06I'm sure you do.
16:08I wonder what Abby's going to think
16:09when I tell you a grubby little secret.
16:12No one's safe around you.
16:13There's no need for empty threats.
16:15I feel sorry for Santa
16:17when he comes down your chimney.
16:18Just be stood there in your undies,
16:20giving him the eye.
16:21Jealous?
16:21God help the reindeer too.
16:26Get your hands off me.
16:33I'm sorry.
16:33Okay.
16:37My mum died yesterday.
16:41I'm sorry.
16:41And I've not taken it too well.
16:44And last night I got a little tipsy
16:46and needed a distraction.
16:49Right.
16:51Probably just as well as I didn't get it.
16:53I was out there in a great place at the minute.
16:56You're so full of secrets, girl.
16:59And secrets have a habit of coming out.
17:02I just wish you would too.
17:03You made a little bit of magic today, Brodie.
17:14What do I know about that?
17:15Well, we all know that your mum
17:16was never going to see that sign,
17:18but as long as Shanice thinks you're dead.
17:20Yeah, that's the important thing.
17:21I know.
17:22Hello?
17:22Hello?
17:28Mum?
17:29Joanie, it's Mum.
17:30What?
17:33I hope she pretends she saw the sign.
17:36Brody
17:38Mum
17:40She saw you saying, Shanice
17:42So I asked Glenda over for her dinner tomorrow
17:46And the cheeky article is going over to Todd and Theo's
17:50Lucky thing
17:51I do love a gay Christmas
17:53Anyway, Lauren is coming over
17:56And she's going to bring wee Frankie with her
17:59Aren't babies just the greatest thing to celebrate?
18:03Don't you agree, Eva?
18:05What's that?
18:06Babies, aren't they great?
18:08Yeah, lovely
18:09Of course you agree, you're baby mad, you
18:12Adam, Alia
18:14Would you like to come over for your dinner tomorrow?
18:16The more the merrier
18:17Oh, we were just going to have a quiet one
18:19Well, if someone's offering to cook
18:21Do you know, I knew I wouldn't be able to keep you away
18:24It's like something's a magnet to you here
18:27Am I right?
18:28Eh, we'd go that far
18:29Well, that's settled then
18:30I want this place packed to the rafters
18:32I'm just popping to the loo
18:34When nature calls
18:35She's not pregnant, is she?
18:39No
18:39Oh, no, I'm not saying she looks it or anything
18:42But it's just she went to the loo and I was still thinking about wee Frankie
18:47You're a baby's on the brain today
18:48I know, I can't think why
18:50What's that side of you, I suppose?
18:51Yes, with baby Jesus in the manger with his little booties and what not
18:57Swaddling bands
18:58Oh, I'll give you swaddling bands
19:01Listen, while Alia is in the way
19:03Here
19:06How come you want a lorry load at Christmas, ma'am?
19:08Because, Benjamin, my darling
19:11This is my stage
19:13I am a diva
19:14And a diva needs her audience
19:16You're mad
19:17So, fasten your seatbelts
19:20I intend to put on quite a shell
19:22Hey, Carla, it's me
19:40So, it's Christmas Eve, babe
19:44And I can't stop thinking about you
19:49I want you
19:52I want you back in my life
19:55And I'm going to do whatever it takes to get you back
19:58It's you
20:03And it'll only ever be you
20:07I love you
20:11Merry Christmas
