00:00All is dark, all is bright, round yon virgin, mother and child.
00:16Holy impassos of tender and high, sleep in heavenly peace, sleep in heavenly peace.
00:38She's still a bag of nerves, isn't she?
00:40When we find out who this is, it's going to make our Christmas.
00:44I know they had a ruck yesterday.
00:47She's been back in London for months, right?
00:48She's been hiding in secret, because Julie told me.
00:50No, Kat, no.
00:51She says she's having some problems, some personal stuff, all right?
00:55Can't go storming and accusing her.
00:57Kat, sorry, I don't give her that look, because I want to catch this nutjob as much as you do.
01:02But it ain't going to help just accusing someone, is it?
01:04So what? I just give up?
01:06No chance.
01:06Bye-bye.
01:15Hey, sweetie, have you been dozing?
01:17Yeah, a bit of a snooze, you know?
01:23Where have you been?
01:24Went with her shopping?
01:25Lifting heavy bags are my condition.
01:28Are you pregnant?
01:29No, she's, uh...
01:30She's a bit lazy, that's all.
01:32I'll do you for slander.
01:36My film.
01:38Um...
01:39I don't remember watching it.
01:43You, uh...
01:45You weren't there, mate.
01:46You missed it.
01:48But take a seat, yeah, I'll explain.
01:50It's been a bit of a rough night.
01:51This is so pathetic, Linda.
02:00What has this got to tell?
02:01I've got a little girl in there who's very confused.
02:04And full of questions that I can't answer.
02:06Well, you can answer them, yeah, you just don't want to.
02:08Do you know what?
02:08Go and get your lawyer, all right?
02:09Because I am not going to let you see her again without a court order.
02:12And after the stunt you pulled yesterday,
02:14you're never going to get one.
02:17Not your smartest move, is it?
02:19You're lucky she didn't call the police.
02:21Well, what do you want me to say?
02:23I had a good little connection with Annie, you know?
02:25I was making her laugh.
02:27I felt like the right time to tell her.
02:29That was the one thing that Linda asked you not to do.
02:31Four years.
02:33Four years, Jack.
02:34My daughter's life.
02:35I'll never get back because of her.
02:38So it's why she's not bending over backwards to make it up to me.
02:41I'll tell you why, mate.
02:44I'm the bad guy.
02:46Yeah.
02:46Max Brennan.
02:48Always the bad guy.
02:57I'm sorry.
02:58I'm so sorry.
02:59Listen, mate, you've got nothing to be sorry for.
03:02Toasties.
03:03We had toasties.
03:04Yeah, that's right, we did.
03:07Care, huh?
03:09We don't need to talk about that now.
03:10My last Christmas.
03:11You do know we love you, don't you?
03:22These sputs ain't gonna peel themselves, are they?
03:24These sputs ain't gonna be really beautiful this morning.
03:39Mm-hmm.
03:40And Anthony, you try your best, don't be late, you hear?
03:42I'm not sure I'm going to be there.
03:44Oh, come on, Amad.
03:45You can't miss it.
03:46You already put so much work into this thing to get out.
03:49I'll ask you what I can do.
03:50But there are more important things in life than carol concerts.
03:58Whatever it is, okay?
03:59I don't want to hear it.
04:00I...
04:00You're the one who's got the lawyers involved,
04:03and you're not getting another penny.
04:05You stay out of my way.
04:11I don't need another lecture.
04:12You haven't told Zoe yet, have you?
04:15You're never going to.
04:16When I'm good and ready, she'll know everything.
04:29What?
04:29I want a snake.
04:31I want two snakes.
04:31Old horses, boys.
04:32No.
04:33No one is getting a snake for Christmas, all right?
04:36What about salamander?
04:37No salamander, no exciting animals.
04:39Full stop, end off, upstairs.
04:40Go on, go, go, go.
04:41Grab some crisps on the way if you want.
04:45How's she been?
04:46Oh, Christmas tree.
04:47No nights on me.
04:51Oh, sorry.
04:52I thought you were done.
04:56Does that hurt?
04:59Oh, I've been through worse.
05:03You got your Christmas plans sorted yet?
05:05You know where you're going to be, who you're going to be with?
05:06Because you're still welcome here.
05:08Um, it's fine.
05:10I've made plans, actually.
05:11Have I done something to upset you?
05:16Merry Christmas, one and all!
05:18Yes, I think it's safe to say I'm full of the Christmas spirits.
05:22But there's plenty of sofas he can sleep on.
05:29And I'm sure he's got a little black book full of women who would happily let him drop down their chimney for Christmas.
05:36I'll grab the end of that, will you?
05:37Look, I was with you, okay?
05:42He should never have told her.
05:44I'm not excusing it.
05:46It's just he's hurt.
05:48He's angry.
05:49I mean, we've been lying to him for years, haven't we?
05:51Put it tight at both corners.
05:53But now he has told her, and she's asking all these questions, maybe it's time you and him came together and gave us some answers.
06:01Oh, you're only doing this because you feel guilty.
06:03Yeah, well, it's partly that, but, you know, I've experienced my fair share of blended families, and all I know is kids work best when their parents ain't at war.
06:11He fired the first shot.
06:12What's best for Annie?
06:15Because this ain't going away.
06:17I've been trying everything to cheer her up.
06:25The next feed, she's walking around like a Slade tribute act.
06:29I can't hear you, Kathleen.
06:31Would you prefer that I wasn't here?
06:33I just want to know where we stand.
06:35Water under the bridge, is it?
06:36What?
06:37After you accuse me of being the crazed lunatic, scaring Zoe half to death?
06:41Yes, actually.
06:43I am calling a Christmas truce.
06:45Blessing you with my forgiveness.
06:49You're welcome, by the way.
06:50We're like the rugby players on Christmas Day in the First World War.
06:54I think you'll find that it was football.
06:56Oh, potato, potato.
06:58We're having a private conversation.
07:02What, have you got the family for Christmas?
07:04Oh, I was going to get them boxes of chocolates.
07:07Chocolates?
07:08Chocolates?
07:09That won't do.
07:10Not after everything they've done for you.
07:12Oh, you're going to have to come with me.
07:13Let me give a coat.
07:15So, it's just having a few hours off.
07:25What, you?
07:28What the hell do you think you're doing?
07:32Yeah, but Elaine, it's Christmas Eve, yeah?
07:34So where am I supposed to go?
07:37Elaine.
07:37No room at the inn, no.
07:46Oh, right, you're fine, then.
07:47It's funny.
07:47Yeah.
07:48You've always had a grin to you, like, you know that?
07:51Now you've got your own Cindy Lou as well.
07:54I don't even know what you're talking about.
07:56No, it's a film that proper parents watch for their kids at Christmas.
08:00So you just want a little dig?
08:01Yeah, it's all right.
08:02Keep thinking.
08:04Look, it's just hard, all right?
08:05Seeing you lose your head over a kid you don't even know.
08:07Well, ignoring the kids, you do.
08:09Just talking about ignoring.
08:10I'm not ignoring you, Oscar, all right?
08:14What are you doing later?
08:15We'll go for a drink.
08:16Because you can fix all my daddy issues with a pint.
08:19No.
08:20No, I'll get you some ball scratchings as well.
08:22Listen, you ain't got to be jealous, all right?
08:26Jealous.
08:27What?
08:28Because you never kidnapped me to go see Father Christmas.
08:31I'm not saying that, all right?
08:32I'm just saying that there's room in my life for all of you.
08:36I ain't stupid, mate, all right?
08:37I know it's going to take me being around, building trust,
08:40and proving myself to everyone.
08:44That's got to start somewhere, hasn't it?
08:48Saturday the Vic will be...
08:49Yeah.
08:51Yeah, where else?
08:52Give me one hour, all right?
08:56I'll meet you in there.
08:57One hour.
09:00Fine.
09:02But I'm only there for the scratchings.
09:03Stop making excuses, all right?
09:23You come sneaking in here, going through my mouth?
09:27How much more suspicious do you want to be?
09:29It fell from the side.
09:30I was just picking it back up.
09:32What are you even doing in here?
09:32I told you.
09:33I was coming to see Zach.
09:35I've had a really emotional day.
09:37I just wanted to talk to a friend.
09:40It's you, isn't it?
09:42I know it's you.
09:43You've had a grudge against Zoe for years,
09:45so you've snuck back here and you've been hounding her for months.
09:47Oh, God.
09:48It's rubbish all over again.
09:49You're trying to freak her out and get in her head.
09:51Well, listen to me.
09:52It's worked, all right?
09:54She's scared with this, so stop it now.
09:56Look, I don't really know what's been going on,
09:58but whatever it is, it weren't me.
10:00Who else would be so cruel, eh?
10:02And twisted.
10:03What, do you want a list?
10:04You do know something.
10:05No, Kat, honestly, I haven't got a clue.
10:09So why'd you look so shifty, eh?
10:11Why'd you come back in secret and lie about how long you've been around for
10:14and don't deny it because Julie told me?
10:16And if it ain't this, then what the hell are you doing?
10:21I've got cancer.
10:23Listen.
10:33Just listen to what she's got to say, yeah.
10:35And try and not run your mouth off.
10:48For the record,
10:50what you did was totally out of order.
10:53But despite how angry I am,
11:00and I am really angry,
11:02there's someone else who's fighting your corner and all.
11:06when can I see that funny man again, Mummy?
11:13That was one of her questions this morning.
11:15Do you think she meant, like, funny ha-ha or funny peculiar?
11:22Jury's out.
11:24Jury's out.
11:26So, as much as it pains me,
11:31seems like she had a lovely afternoon with you.
11:36Look, it's not how I wanted it to happen,
11:39but it's out there.
11:41So, she's got questions.
11:47I think we should probably answer them together.
11:57they're telling me it's early stage breast cancer i talked about treatment yeah yeah i met with the
12:17doctor explained it all operation in the new year to take the lump out and they'll take some lymph
12:23notes as well i'll have some radiotherapy and apparently i should get rid of it that's good
12:30yeah i was looking at nigel this morning and it's so horrible it's it's so tragic because this could
12:42be his last christmas you know and then i was thinking they could do all this with me
12:47and the cancer could still come back and it would be mine
12:51and if i died who'd really care i mean my son my brothers zach maybe jack
13:04but either way that's that's a really sorry funeral
13:09i'd show up if the drinks were free
13:13no one's talking about funerals all right
13:19sam if you've been in a dark place and i don't know you did so much stupid because you're angry
13:26with the world angry with zoe i'd rather you told me it was you because we are terrified what they're
13:32gonna do next it wasn't me but you know it was you know something please sam just tell me
13:43cap i don't know anything to be honest with you i'm i'm too wrapped up in my own little world to give

19:21She swore it weren't her

19:32It ain't over yet
19:33Merry Christmas
19:34And then they start a fire
19:35I'm looking round the square and I'm thinking this could be anyone
19:38I haven't got a clue who it is
19:39Okay, listen, seriously sweet, I know if it's gonna happen tomorrow, right?
19:42We've got a packed pub
19:44Now, if you mind, I can talk to the police again and see if they'll go on high alert, yeah?

19:51Okay, okay, well then, okay, we protect her

21:07Oh, that'll make you, Andy, very happy
21:14Listen to me, I know we...
21:15We haven't seen eye to eye
21:17Have I?
21:19Look
21:21It's a long time since we shared a winter warmer
21:26I can't do this
21:28It's cute, sat on the sofa, cuddled up, watched the whole movie
21:38Oh!
21:39Really pleased for you, mate
21:40That's really lovely, Dad
21:41Go on
21:42See you in a bit, alright?
21:43Let me have a look at you, okay?
21:44So, yeah, you're not dead, haven't been kidnapped
21:55Sorry, mate
21:56What's the excuse this time?
21:57I'm sorry
21:59I should have called you
22:00Alright, I'm sorry, I've been with Annie, no
22:02Well, I've been sat in the pub like a mug
22:05Oh, Jack stepped up from me, didn't he, with Linda
22:08Oh, Jack, oh, that's pretty...
22:10Where is... okay
22:11Well, let me ask you something, yeah?
22:12Why do you think he did that, hmm?
22:14Because he suddenly thinks you're the perfect dad
22:17That's because he knows what he means to me, that's why
22:19No, no, no, no, no
22:21It's guilt
22:23That's why he's doing it
22:26What are you talking about?
22:28He knew about Annie
22:31Hmm?
22:32Blowing it to me as well, yeah?
22:34Look, Annie, look
22:35I reckon half the square knows too
22:39I've been lying to you for months
22:40Years
22:41Years
22:43Yeah
22:44And we're still lying now
22:47Merry Christmas

25:47Can you join us, or what?
25:49Yeah, yeah, I'm just coming.
25:51All right.
25:52What is it?
25:53I don't know.
25:54What is it?
25:56I've just got this feeling that we're going to have a really great Christmas.
25:59I hope so, darling.
26:01I really, really hope so.
26:02I hope so.
26:03I hope so.
26:04I hope so.

26:41Cherubim and seraphim thronged the end.
26:42Cherubim and seraphim thronged the end.
26:43If I were a shepherd, I would give a lamb.
26:59If I were a wise man, I would do my part.
27:11I've done everything that you asked, but I've changed my mind.
27:29I don't think that she deserves this.
27:32Oh, believe me, she does.
27:38We're going to give her a Christmas she'll never forget.
27:41We're going to give her a Christmas she'll never forget.
