00:00All is dark, all is bright, round yon virgin, mother and child.
00:16Holy impassal, 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 gonna make our Christmas.
00:44I know they had a ruck yesterday.
00:47She's been back in London for months, right? She's been hiding in secret because Julie told me.
00:50No, Cat, no. She says she's having some problems, some personal stuff, all right?
00:55Can't go storming and accusing her.
00:57Cat, sweetheart, don't give her that look because I want to catch this nutjob as much as you do.
01:02But it ain't gonna help just accusing someone, is it?
01:04So what, I just give up? No chance.
01:14Well, thanks for having to have you been dozing.
01:17Yeah, a bit of a snooze, you know.
01:22Where have you been?
01:23Went out with her shopping?
01:25Lifting heavy bags are my condition.
01:27Are you pregnant?
01:29No, she's, uh, she's a bit lazy, that's all.
01:32What do you for slander?
01:34My film, um, I don't remember watching it.
01:43You, uh, you weren't there, mate. You missed it.
01:48Take a seat and I'll explain.
01:49It's been a bit of a rough night.
01:51This is so pathetic, Linda. What has this got at all?
02:01I've got a little girl in there who's very confused and 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? Go and get your lawyer, all right?
02:09Because I am not gonna let you see her again without a court order.
02:12And after the stunt you pulled yesterday, you're never gonna 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.
02:28That was the one thing that Linda asked you not to do.
02:31Four years. Four years, Jack, of my daughter's life.
02:35I'll never get back because of her.
02:38So it's why is she not bending over backwards to make it up to me?
02:41I'll tell you why, mate.
02:44I'm the bad guy. Yeah. Max Brennan.
02:48Always the bad guy.
02:57I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
02:59Listen, mate, you've got nothing to be sorry for.
03:02Toasties. We had toasties.
03:04Yeah, that's right, we did.
03:07Care home.
03:09We don't need to talk about that now.
03:10My last Christmas.
03:16You do know we love you, don't you?
03:17These spits aren't going to peel themselves, are they?
03:24We're going to be really beautiful this morning.
03:39Mm-hmm.
03:40Anthony, you try your best, don't be late, yeah?
03:42I'm not sure I'm going to be there.
03:44Oh, come on, Amari, you can't miss it.
03:46You really put so much work into this thing to get out.
03:49I'll see what I can do.
03:50But there are more important things in life than carol concerts.
03:58Whatever it is, I don't want to hear it.
04:00I...
04:01You're the one who got the lawyers involved,
04:03and you're not getting another penny.
04:09Stay out of my way.
04:10I don't need another lecture.
04:12You haven't told Zoe yet, have you?
04:16You're never going to.
04:17When I'm good and ready, she'll know everything.
04:19What?
04:30I want a snake.
04:30I 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 exact animals.
04:39Uh, full stop, end of, 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, no lights on.
04:49Oh, sorry, I thought you were done.
04:56Does that hurt?
05:00Been through worse.
05:03You got your Christmas plans sorted yet?
05:04You 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, it's fine.
05:10I've made plans, actually.
05:13Have I done something to upset you?
05:16Merry Christmas, one and all!
05:20Yes, I think it's safe to say I'm full of the Christmas spirits.
05:27But there's plenty of sofas he can sleep on.
05:28And I'm sure he's got a little black book full of women who would happily let him drop down their chimney for Christmas.
05:35Oh, grab the end of that, will you?
05:40Look, 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.
05:52But now he has told her.
05:55And she's asking all these questions.
05:58Maybe 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.
06:04But, you know, I've experienced my fair share of blended families.
06:07And 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.
06:23I'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.
06:46Blessing 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? Chocolates?
07:09That won't do.
07:10Oh, not up to everything they've done for you.
07:12Oh, you're going to have to come with me.
07:13Oh, let me give a go.
07:16Zoe'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, it's funny.
07:47Yeah.
07:48You've always had a grin to you, bud, you know that?
07:51Now you've got your own Cindy Lou as well.
07:52I don't even know what you're talking about.
07:56No, it's a film that proper parents watch for their kids at Christmas.
08:00Oh, so you just swallow a little dick.
08:02Yeah, it's all right, keep digging.
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.
08:08Just talking about ignoring, I'm not ignoring you, Oscar, all right?
08:12What are you doing later? We'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 pork scratchings as well.
08:24Listen, you ain't got to be jealous, all right?
08:26Jealous.
08:26What?
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, it's going to take me being around,
08:39building trust and proving myself to everyone.
08:44That's got to start somewhere, ain'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, one hour.
09:00Fine.
09:02But I'm only there for the scratch-ins.
09:03Stop making excuses, all right?
09:24You come sneaking in here, going through my mouth?
09:27How much more suspicious do you want to be?
09:29It fell from the side, I was just picking it back up.
09:31What are you even doing in here?
09:32I told you, I 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, innit?
09:42I know it's you.
09:43You've had a grudge against Zoe for years,
09:44so you've snuck back here and you've been hounding her for months.
09:48It's rubbish all over again.
09:49Are you 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.
10:02What, do you want a list?
10:04You do know something.
10:05Look at all.
10:06Honestly, 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?
10:18I mean, I've got cancer.
10:31Listen, just listen to what she's got to say, yeah?
10:35And try and not run your mouth off.
10:37For the record, what you did was totally out of order.
10:52but despite how angry i am and 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 that was one of her questions this morning
11:15do you think she meant like funny ha ha or funny peculiar jury's out
11:24so as much as it pains me seems like she had a lovely afternoon with you
11:33look it's not how i wanted it to happen but it's out there so she's got questions
11:44i think we should probably answer them together

11:55they're telling me it's early stage breast cancer
12:13have they talked about treatment
12:15yeah yeah i met with the doctor explained it all
12:18operation in the new year to take the lump out and they'll take some lymph nodes as well
12:24i'll have some radiotherapy and apparently i should get rid of it
12:29that'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 be his last christmas you know
12:43and then i was thinking they could do all this with me and the cancer could still come back and it would be mine
12:51and if i died
12:54who'd really care
12:56i mean my son
12:59my brothers

18:50I was going to watch a film with Nigel.
18:52Not die hard again.
18:54It's a wonderful life, I think.
18:55Right.
18:56So, sounds like we're going to be spending Christmas
18:58and bloodbind on the sofa.
19:01Thank you, Phil.
19:03What for?
19:05Just being my brother.
19:08What I'm going through, it makes it a lot easier
19:10knowing family's around.
19:14Believe me.
19:16If I had any choice in the matter.
19:20Right, now, let's get this in there.
19:23She swore it weren't her.
19:25Okay, so what are you saying?
19:27What, you're not convinced?
19:28I just think, like, we're running out of time.
19:31That message a couple of weeks ago, it ain't over yet.
19:34Merry Christmas.
19:35And then they start a fire.
19:36I'm looking around the square and I'm thinking,
19:38this could be anyone.
19:38I haven't got a clue who it is.
19:40Kat, listen, seriously, sweetie.
19:41I know if it's going to happen tomorrow, right?
19:42We've got a packed pub.
19:43Now, listen, if you want, I can talk to the police again
19:48and see if they'll go on high alert.
19:49No.
19:50Zoe would hate that.
19:51Okay.
19:52Okay.
19:52Well, then, we protect her.
19:54Yeah?
19:54We keep an eye, you know,
19:56and we want to make sure we have a great time.
19:58Oi, come on, come on, come on.
19:59It'll be all right.
20:00Come on, let's not forget.
20:02It's Christmas!
20:04Oh, that hurts.
20:05Right, come on, grab your cup.
20:06Let's get outside for some carols.
20:11Hey, Oscar, come on, mate.
20:12It's carol time.
20:18All right.
20:18Hey, hey.
20:23Well, it looks like you had something bad to do, eh?
20:29Yeah.
20:30Merry Christmas, Dad.
20:40Yeah.
20:40Yeah.
20:53Oh, thanks for coming, sir.
21:08Oh, that'll make you, Andy, very happy.
21:14Listen to me, I know we haven't seen eye to eye.
21:18Look, it's a long time since we shared up a winter warmer.
21:27I can't do this.
21:34It's cute.
21:35It's sat on the sofa, cuddled up,
21:38watched the whole movie.
21:39Oh.
21:39Really pleased for you, mate.
21:40That's really lovely, Dad.
21:42I know.
21:42Go on.
21:43See you in a bit.
21:44All right.
21:44Let me have a look at you.
21:52OK.
21:53So, yeah, you're not dead.
21:55Haven't been kidnapped.
21:56Sorry, mate.
21:57What's the excuse this time?
21:58I'm sorry.
22:00I should have called you.
22:01All right.
22:01I'm sorry.
22:01I've been with Annie.
22:02No.
22:02While I've been sat in the pub like a mug.
22:06Oh, Jack stepped up from me, didn't he?
22:08With Linda.
22:09Oh, Jack.
22:10Oh, that's pretty.
22:11Where is it?
22:11OK.
22:12Well, let me ask you something, yeah?
22:13Why do you think he did that, hmm?
22:15Because he suddenly thinks you're the perfect dad.
22:19That's because he knows what he means to me.
22:20No, no, no, no.
22:22It's guilt.
22:24That's why he's doing it.
22:27What are you talking about?
22:29He knew about Annie.
22:30Blowing it to me as well, yeah?
22:35Look, I reckon half the square knows, too.
22:40We've been lying to you for months.
22:41Years.
22:43Yeah.
22:44And we're still lying now.
22:48Merry Christmas.
22:48Merry Christmas.
23:00Hey, where are you?
23:21We need to talk.
23:22Sleep in heavenly peace.
23:31Sleep in heavenly peace.
23:38Silent night.
23:44Holy night.
23:49Heaven's praise.
23:53Heaven's praise.
23:54At the sun.
23:57Glories free from heaven upon.
24:06Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia.
24:14Christ the Savior is born.
24:22Christ the Savior is born.
24:30And he's born in heavenly peace.
24:31And he was born in heavenly peace.
24:35Jesus, let's go and pray to me.
24:36Oh, oh!
24:36Oh, all hail.
24:37Oh!
24:38Oh!
24:39Oh!
24:40Oh!
24:41Oh!
24:45Oh.
24:46Oh!
24:50God!
24:53Oh!
24:54Oh.
