00:00We need to report, Cap, to the police.
00:11I've explained this. He's not a threat to us anymore.
00:13He's set fire to our trees. He's going to smash my windscreen.
00:15And what happens if he follows us to meet Angela?
00:17He won't. He's not going to cause us any more grief.
00:20And you honestly believe that?
00:21Hey, what time are you off to see Angela?
00:23There's no point going now.
00:25Why not?
00:25But how can she trust that we'll look after Seb when he's psycho-exed, waging a war of terror?
00:29I ain't got time for this. I'm going to work.
00:30Yeah, perfect. Very maturely. You just walk away from it all, yeah?
00:34You've got to let Kev off the hook.
00:35And you're playing right into his hands.
00:38Kev's trying to tear the two of you apart, and you're letting him.
00:41So you think I should back down?
00:42Yes, I do.
00:43Because today isn't about Kev or Ross, it's about Angela.
00:47And proving that you can look after Seb if you want him back where he belongs.
00:50So please, go and sort it out.
00:59Ta-da!
01:08You look amazing.
01:11I do, don't I?
01:13I can't believe we're actually doing this.
01:15People are going to be so shocked.
01:16Well, yeah, that's when anyone turns up.
01:18Maury and Chas are saying they can't come now. We've changed their time.
01:20Grandad and Charity will be there.
01:22That's all that matters.
01:23Sarah, this is honestly the happiest day of my life.
01:28Me too.
01:29Eric!
01:30What are you doing?
01:32Hurry up!
01:33What are you doing?
01:33What are you doing here?
01:34What are you doing here?
01:44We live here.
01:46And what's with the suit?
01:47It's for this afternoon.
01:48It's only a gender reveal party.
01:50You don't need to dress up.
01:51Are you planning on making an effort?
01:53Yeah, once I get the chance.
01:56I don't think they want us here.
01:59Do they?
02:00Right.
02:02See you later.
02:04Don't be late.
02:07It was close.
02:09I didn't think they suspected anything.
02:10Who cares?
02:11It's about you and me.
02:12Lids, come on.
02:24You've got to be there.
02:26Maury and Chas have already bailed.
02:27I'm sorry.
02:28I've got a million things to do before tomorrow.
02:30Well, Sarah wants all family there.
02:33All family where?
02:34Gender reveal party.
02:35Very important to her.
02:36Then she should have picked a better day.
02:38I mean, who's got spare time on Christmas Eve?
02:40There's free booze.
02:41Yes, that's why I'm definitely going.
02:43Thank you, Sammy.
02:44Spread the word.
02:47You're anyone's for a free beer, you, aren't you?
02:49Aye.
02:50Money's tight.
02:51And it always will be, especially now you've been written out of Kim's will.
02:54Yeah, well, we've never had much cash, but we've always got by.
02:58Why are you making another trifle?
03:00That one's for Kim.
03:02Oh, right, so she sacks us and you're making her a dessert?
03:05Sam, we sacked ourselves after what we did.
03:07And she's been having a really difficult time since the accident.
03:10She's still my friend.
03:12She don't think so.
03:13She told you to get stuffed.
03:15Yeah, well, I never turn my back on those clothes to me.
03:17Especially not at Christmas.
03:20You'll be coming home wearing that trifle.
03:22Maybe.
03:24But at least I'll have tried.
03:25Oh, come on.
03:30No!
03:36Hello.
03:37Problem?
03:38Yeah, my battery's flat.
03:40Today of all days.
03:42Well, why swarging?
03:44Well, I've got that meeting at the brewery, haven't I?
03:46Well, I can take you if you want.
03:48Oh, babe, no.
03:49You've been up since five.
03:50Don't worry about it.
03:51Look, there's Vanessa.
03:52I'll get her to take me.
03:53Are you sure?
03:54Yeah.
03:54You get some rest.
03:56All right.
03:57Cheers, mate.
03:58You're a pal.
04:06How am I a pal?
04:07Because I need to get to the clinic for those tests.
04:09So you'll have to give me a lift.
04:16Have to.
04:17Okay, fine.
04:18Pretty please.
04:20Are you going to get a paternity test while you're there?
04:22No, because I don't need to.
04:24Well, you do.
04:25It's a strong chance this baby's Mackenzie's.
04:27Do you know what, Vanessa?
04:28Forget it.
04:28I'll just, I'll get a taxi, all right?
04:30I don't need you pecking my head right now.
04:32Just, if anyone asks, will you just say that you gave me a lift to the brewery?
04:35Yeah.
04:37This is now I'm sorry.
04:37I don't know.
04:43I don't know.
04:44You don't know what to say.
04:44Sorry.
04:45I said it was unhappy.
04:45I say it.
04:46No, no, no.
04:47What?
04:48I want to say I should apologize.
04:48I think records I should apologise.
05:01And you agree with her?
05:04I just want Kev out of our lives.
05:06Yeah, so do I.
05:08We could report him, but that would mean spending Christmas Eve at a police station giving statements.
05:15Wouldn't you rather meet up with Angela?
05:17It's what a great couple we are.
05:18When you put it like that, Kev's in the past.
05:25He's not in our lives anymore.
05:28The future is me, you and Seb.
05:33What was that?
05:34Get down.
05:35I hear you and your lot have moved into one of the cottages on Home Farmers Day.
05:49Was that Kim's idea or yours?
05:50I assume she won't be joining in your engagement celebrations.
05:55Who's getting engaged?
05:57Him and Dawn.
05:58I thought she turned you down.
05:59No.
06:00That was yesterday, Jimmy.
06:02Try and keep up.
06:03How's Kim doing?
06:04Your guess is as good as mine.
06:06Oh, he's not giving away much.
06:12There you are.
06:13Good.
06:14So, how's your dad and Rona?
06:19How do you think?
06:20They can't afford to keep forking out thousands of pounds a week.
06:23Think of it as their way of showing how much they love you.
06:26OK, fine.
06:30You win.
06:31I'll start working for you again, as long as you agree to leave them alone.
06:35April, you don't call the shots.
06:38You know that.
06:41How's Dylan?
06:42I understand.
06:43He could be discharged imminently.
06:45Do hope he's going to behave himself.
06:47Well, he's not going to say anything if that's what you're worried about.
06:49I'm not remotely worried.
06:52Ray and I will be gone soon.
06:53Pasture's new, literally.
06:54It doesn't pay to loiter in one place for too long.
06:59So we won't be seeing you anymore?
07:01Well, you will, obviously.
07:04You will be coming with us.
07:08What's going on?
07:09What's happened?
07:10Kev tried to kill us.
07:12What?
07:13Yeah, we were in a field and we were shot at.
07:16And it was definitely Kev?
07:17This would never have happened if you'd have called the police yesterday.
07:19Well, please tell me that you've called them now.
07:21Yeah, obviously.
07:21We still need to stay inside with the doors locked until they get here.
07:25And what about Angela?
07:27Well, Kev might follow us to the meeting and go after her.
07:30So we're just going to have to put it off until they find him.
07:32You could find so many other kids that would do what I do.
07:38Oh, don't underestimate yourself, April.
07:41You are a very talented young woman and I promise you, in a few years' time, you'll be a very rich young woman.
07:48I'll be a drug dealer.
07:50Well, we already are.
07:55But I'll go to the police if I disappear.
07:57I'm not suggesting you disappear.
07:59You will explain to your father that you are leaving of your own free will and he must respect that.
08:05I don't know.
08:07Okay.
08:08Well, you have a little think about it and let me know tomorrow.
08:15Well, tomorrow's Christmas Day here.
08:17What difference does that make?
08:18Sarah, this is Anton and Tilda.
08:26Hi.
08:27They're going to be our witnesses.
08:28They're up next after us and we've agreed to return the fame.
08:31Thank you so much.
08:32This is so exciting.
08:35Oh, looks like you need these.
08:36Oh, thank you.
08:39You all right?
08:41Are we doing the right thing?
08:43What, you're having doubts?
08:45No, I just...
08:46I didn't think it'd be this nerve-wracking.
08:48It's good nerves, though, right?
08:50Yeah.
08:51You ready?
08:52Yeah.
08:53Congratulations!
09:07Thanks!
09:09Grandad?
09:11Is that a wedding ring?
09:15Surprise!
09:23You've married Kerry.
09:31Just let me explain.
09:33She's wearing a wedding ring. What's her to explain?
09:35This is purely a financial arrangement.
09:37Why are you giving money to Kerry? No, no, no, no. He's not. He's not.
09:41I'm just keeping it safe.
09:43What are you talking about?
09:44Anyway, never mind you having a go at us.
09:46What are you two doing sneaking around a registry office all bride and groom?
09:50Honestly, Jacob, how could you?
09:54Your wedding day is a big event which should have all the trimmings.
09:58It was supposed to be.
10:00Was it?
10:01Yeah, we were going to get everyone to the pub and then bring them here for this surprise wedding.
10:05But you lied to me.
10:07You said that you had some important meeting when you made out that you weren't even available.
10:11I would have made myself available had I known that you were getting married.
10:16You should have told me.
10:17Well, we're all here now, aren't we? So why don't we just crack on and make it a big double celebration?
10:23No.
10:24You can forget it. I did this for you.
10:27And you've gone behind my back, excuse me.
10:31Sorry, I'm going to have to...
10:34You look absolutely gorged, by the way.
10:37Are we doing this?
10:41I can't do it now.
10:43Erm...
10:44It's OK. We'll, er...
10:46We'll come back another time, do it properly.
10:48I'm so sorry.
10:49Don't worry.
10:50Would you like to come through?
10:53I think we're going to need them.
10:58We've done a full sweep of the area.
11:02We're always out there, it's gone now.
11:03Well, if Kev comes back...
11:05He's trying to kill us.
11:06Did you actually see Mr Townsend?
11:08No.
11:09We didn't see anyone.
11:10Who else could it be?
11:11Well, there's been a lot of poachers recently.
11:13They've been talked in local farms and estates.
11:15It's not poachers, it's Kev.
11:16You need to find him.
11:17We're already looking for Mr Townsend.
11:19It's only a matter of time now until we track him down.
11:21Meanwhile, he's free to take pop shots at us, is he?
11:23Look, can you actually prove that he fired the shots?
11:25He's useless.
11:26He's doing all he can.
11:28Look, we'll investigate this thoroughly.
11:30Patrol the village for the rest of the day.
11:32Just try not to worry.
11:33It's easier said than done on all.
11:36I'll let myself out.
11:40Erm, sorry, why is there a police car in the village?
11:43Is there?
11:44Yeah.
11:45I hope it's not down to any of you lot.
11:48Last thing I need right now is anyone getting arrested at my granddaughter's gender reveal party.
11:53As if.
11:54How was the meeting?
11:55Oh, fine, babe.
11:56Same old boring.
11:57More free bubbly?
11:59Don't mind if I do.
12:00Right, Sam.
12:01I thought you were more of a beer drinker.
12:03Aye, I'll drink out if it costs out.
12:06Man after my own heart.
12:08Noah, why are we giving away champagne?
12:10Because Bob told me.
12:11It's all covered.
12:12Courtesy of Eric.
12:13What?
12:14So anyway, where are Sarah and Jacob?
12:16I must have got to get here on time.
12:18Yeah, Eric.
12:19Can you call your grandson?
12:20Tell him to get his skates on.
12:21OK.
12:24Tell me he'll pick up.
12:26Do you think I ever reacted?
12:28Do you?
12:29It was a shock them getting married behind my back.
12:34Hmm.
12:35Jacob will be fine, man.
12:36He'll be giddy because he's married.
12:38Will he?
12:39I know I am.
12:40Mrs Pollard the Fifth.
12:42Six, actually.
12:43Oh.
12:44Oh, it's all very Henry the Eighth.
12:45Hopefully, you saved the best till last.
12:49Eric, I'm joking.
12:50I know nobody would ever replace you with Valerie, would they?
12:55Oh!
12:56Finally!
12:57OK.
12:58Er, please allow me to introduce...
13:02The newly married couple.
13:03Woo!
13:04Woo!
13:05Woo!
13:06What?
13:07So is it a boy or a girl?
13:08Try and keep up, eh?
13:09Are you married?
13:10Surprise!
13:11Well, it's certainly news to me and your granddad.
13:12Yeah, well, you would have known about it if you hadn't been so difficult.
13:13Sorry, how is any of this my fault?
13:14Well, it doesn't matter anyway because we didn't go through with it.
13:16Why not?
13:17Ask him.
13:18I don't know.
13:19I don't know.
13:20I don't know.
13:21I don't know.
13:22I don't know.
13:23I don't know.
13:24I don't know.
13:25I don't know.
13:26I don't know.
13:27I don't know.
13:28I don't know.
13:29I don't know.
13:30I don't know.
13:31I don't know.
13:32Ask him and Kerry.
13:34His new wife.
13:35Who beat us to the altar.
13:37Oh, that's a joke, right?
13:43What?
13:52What are you doing here?
13:54Christmas cards.
13:56From Evan.
13:57And from Clanny.
13:59And from Lucas.
14:01Any excuse to try and worm your way back in?
14:06Come on, Kim.
14:08It's Christmas.
14:10Oh, and Dawn.
14:12She wanted to invite you to dinner tomorrow.
14:15She wants to celebrate our engagement.
14:18Feel free to congratulate me.
14:21I'm busy tomorrow.
14:23You can pretend like you don't care, but we saw you watching us yesterday.
14:30At least come for the sake of the grandkids.
14:32They're not mine.
14:34They are when it suits you.
14:36It's cruel to disown them.
14:38They've done nothing wrong.
14:39Well, you should have thought about that before you moved out.
14:42You question my loyalty.
14:45How are we supposed to regain trust if you won't talk to me?
14:49You're still here.
14:51OK.
14:52The invite's there, if you want it.
14:56I won't.
14:58So, this isn't a wind-up?
15:00Read it and weep.
15:02What's going on?
15:04Her and Eric have just got wed.
15:08Behave!
15:09It's true.
15:10And I've never been out with you.
15:11Ew.
15:12I thought you'd be happy for us.
15:14We are.
15:15Hardly.
15:16I've been stressed out all day and this is just the icing on the cake.
15:19Stressed out about what?
15:20Hang on.
15:21Is everything OK with the baby?
15:22Don't chase the subject, young lady.
15:23How could you do this to me?
15:24I hope you're going to back me up here, Cain.
15:26If it's what they want.
15:27I don't care what they want.
15:28Do you know what?
15:29After everything I've done for you.
15:30Don't have a go at me.
15:31We wanted you at the end of the day.
15:33We wanted you at the end of the day.
15:36You're the one that kept saying you were too busy.
15:37Yeah, because I thought it was just some gender reveal party.
15:39And this was the excuse to get everyone together.
15:40Right, well cheers for the heads up, Belle.
15:41Oh, typical Grant.
15:42Just blame everyone but yourself.
15:43Look, I'm sorry if you don't like it, but we didn't even get married in the end,
15:44so I don't know what you're complaining about.
15:45And do you know what you think you're hard done by?
15:46At least you didn't get beaten to the altar by them two in their sham wedding.
15:47Sarah.
15:48Nice one, Charity.
15:49Erm.
15:50Can I have a word?
15:51Get lost, Grandad.
15:52I'm confused.
15:53So who's married and who's not?
15:54Just keep your head down and sup up, yeah?
15:55Four-fifty please, Sam.
15:56Aye?
15:57Sorry, he's only paying for the Shampers.
15:58Kerry, what did Sarah mean by sham wedding?
15:59She's just upset cos we upstaged her.
16:02This is 100% general.
16:03I hope so.
16:04Oh, yeah.
16:05I think he should put a good bathroom on my face.
16:06I'm sorry.
16:07I'm sorry, Whiteie.
16:08I'm sorry, the 233 on the floor.
16:09That's a bad bathroom.
16:10You're not who you are, but I'm sorry.
16:11You're not what you're talking to.
16:12I'm not sure.
16:13What's your talk?
16:14You're not what you're talking to, Father?
16:15What's your talk?
16:16I'm not talking to this.
16:17I'm not talking to a good friend.
16:18I'm sorry to my partner, but I'm sorry to my partner.
16:22I'm not talking to a good friend of this.
16:23They're not talking to my brother.
16:24because we upstaged her.
16:26This is 100% genuine.
16:29I love Eric to bits.
16:31He's like a dad to us.
16:33Who marries the dad?
16:35Kerry and I have grown close
16:37since she started to look after me.
16:41Hey, it's not a crime, is it?
16:43It should be.
16:43All right, well, if they're in love,
16:46let's leave them both to it.
16:49Are you going to kiss your bride then, Eric?
16:50Oh, no, we don't kiss in public.
16:52Well, I know he's not that hideous.
16:55Kiss.
16:56Kiss.
16:57Kiss.
16:58Kiss.
16:59Kiss.
16:59Kiss.
17:00Kiss.
17:01Kiss.
17:01Kiss.
17:09Hardly the most passionate kiss I've ever seen.
17:13Best marriage for you.
17:14Oi.
17:22Lydia?
17:25Hi.
17:26Right, there's a turkey crown in the fridge.
17:28I've peeled potatoes and parsnips ready for roasting
17:30and a piece de resistance,
17:33my homemade prize-winning sherry trifle.
17:36OK, I haven't won any prizes,
17:37but people always woof it down.
17:39Do I look like I want charity?
17:41I was talking about charity.
17:43You cancelled your shop.
17:44I can't let you starve over Christmas.
17:47You owe me £33.37.
17:48There's no rush whenever you're ready.
17:55You ungrateful mayor!
17:58Yes, fine, me and Sam were out of order
18:00by organising that shoot,
18:01but you have done far worse in your time.
18:03There's a million and one good reasons
18:05why most of my family ate your guts,
18:06so if you're expecting a grovelling apology,
18:08you can forget it.
18:09I want nothing from you.
18:12And I want nothing more from you.
18:15Do you know, it's such a waste of energy feeling sorry for you,
18:18but I tell you something,
18:19if tomorrow was a year since Sam's death,
18:21heaven forbid,
18:22I wouldn't want to spend it all sad and alone.
18:25Merry Christmas!
18:26Merry Christmas, darling,
18:38wherever you are.
18:40Sir, who proposed to who, then?
18:42Did she coerce you into this?
18:44Old men can be very vulnerable.
18:46Hey, I'm not senile.
18:48Yet.
18:49It is very sudden.
18:51Then again, senile or not,
18:53at his age,
18:54can he afford to hang about?
18:55It still seems iffy to me.
18:57Oh, we love each other, OK?
19:00Get over it.
19:03You should tell everyone the truth.
19:06No, you can't do that to your granddaddy.
19:07He's ruined our big day.
19:09Well, not just him.
19:10Go away, gran.
19:12I come in peace.
19:14I think I went a bit over the top.
19:16Will you forgive me?
19:17We just wanted you to be happy for us.
19:19And I am!
19:20I just wish you'd have let me in on your little secret.
19:23I'd have dropped everything if I'd known it was your big day.
19:26But the bigger picture is,
19:28I'm so proud of you.
19:31So,
19:32shall we do the honours?
19:36Belle?
19:37We're still having cake.
19:39OK, Sarah,
19:41you cut the first slice.
19:43If it's pink, it's baby girl.
19:44If it's blue, it's baby boy.
19:46That's a bit sexist.
19:47Someone shut her up.
19:52Come on, then.
19:52Don't leave us all hanging.
19:58It's a girl!
20:00Yes!
20:05Oh, my God.
20:06Oh, no, is that good or bad?
20:08Oh, it's amazing.
20:09It's what we were hoping for.
20:10Hiya, it's only us.
20:15Come on.
20:18Go on.
20:19You all right, Harry?
20:20Shouldn't you be in bed, son?
20:21Well, I put him to bed hours ago.
20:24I'm not tired.
20:25So I'm relying on you two to wear him out.
20:27Go sit down for me.
20:28We'll do our best, but, er,
20:30as long as you feel safe being here.
20:33Full disclosure,
20:34I'll feel safer here than I do at home.
20:37Do you mind if we stay for a while?
20:38I keep thinking that Kev's going to come after us.
20:41No, of course not.
20:42It's fine.
20:43You do know we wouldn't let Kev
20:45anywhere near either of you, though,
20:46don't you?
20:47No.
20:48Thanks.
20:52You already gave us a card?
20:54Oh, that's not from me.
20:55I found it downstairs on the map.
20:56What is it?
21:11Kev's wedding ring.
21:19Is that a bullet?
21:19He's not going to stop until he kills us.
21:26I'm not going to stop.
21:38I'm notby's wedding ring.
21:40Bye.
21:40Bye.
21:41Bye.
21:42Bye.
21:42Bye.
21:44Bye.
21:48Bye.
21:52Bye.
21:53Bye.
21:55Bye.
21:56Bye.
21:56You
