00:35And all that satin
00:39Won't see another one
00:43And I only sang a song
00:48The rare old mountain tune
00:52I turned my face away
00:56I love it
00:58I've dreamed about you
01:02Got on a lucky one

01:36Merry Christmas
01:40Hey
01:44They got cars
01:48Big as bars
01:50They got rivers of gold
01:52Thread the windows right through you
01:54It's no place for the old
01:56When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve
01:58You promised me Broadway was waiting for me
02:00You were handsome
02:02Queen of New York City
02:04When the band finished
02:06You know she's invited Adam and Alia
02:08Don't you?
02:10I mean she could have invited one of your axes
02:12Balance it out a bit
02:13Who's she?
02:14The cat's mother?
02:16Do you like what I got Eva?
02:18It reminds me of that quote from the bible
02:20Pearls before swine
02:22Ma?
02:23What?
02:24Why is everyone so serious?

02:51Practically transcendental

03:42What's been happening at Lesbian Ranch?
03:52My donation for our secret Santa
03:56Oh yeah erm the table looks dead nice Eva

04:05Don't you think you should go check on the food?
04:08Of course
04:10Everything's under control Nan
04:13He's making my favourite

04:50To see Jack and open some presents
04:52See you later
04:53Oh some presents?
04:54Your presents
04:55It just feels weird being here
05:06Especially when I'm leaving Leanne to fend for herself at speed dog
05:09Well they invited us
05:10And all these men to be a great cook so
05:12Come on open it
05:16It's symbolic
05:18Of what?
05:19The key to your heart?
05:20Listen
05:21I love you
05:22And I think we should move in together
05:26In fact
05:27We can pick up the keys for Kit's old flat at Redbank
05:29Whenever you want
05:30Are you serious?
05:31Yeah I'm serious
05:32Ali and Nazir
05:33Will you make me the happiest man on earth?
05:35I'll move in with them
05:37I'd love to
05:42Kurt what did you think you were doing?
05:43Ah come on babe it's Christmas
05:44One or two won't hurt
05:46As long as it's only one or two
05:48It's bird within a bird within a bird
05:50Sounds very
05:52Henry VIII
05:53Divorced
05:55Divorced
05:56Beheaded
05:57Died
05:58Divorced
05:59Beheaded
06:00Survived
06:01I always find that last one very disappointing
06:03Hey
06:04Hey
06:05Merry Christmas
06:06Merry Christmas Daniel
06:07Hello young man
06:08We're going to get a Christmas present
06:09Oh and is this your little guy?
06:12Couldn't you just eat him?
06:15Come here to me
06:17Oh you're gorgeous
06:19You must stay for dinner
06:21We'll set two more places
06:22We have more company
06:24Well I'm sure Daniel's got all the places to be
06:27Hey us barlows would do anything to avoid Tracy's crusty old nut roast
06:31Perfect
06:32We'll take the little lad upstairs to where the other kids are playing
06:36And would someone give Daniel here a drink from the bar?
06:39Thought we weren't doing gifts
06:41Well aren't you going to open it?
06:42A weekend away at the Dovedale spa for two
06:55Oh wow that's supposed to be amazing
06:58Thank you
06:59Will?
07:12Sorry about him
07:13He's missing his girlfriend
07:15Chloe and Hull
07:18Bless him
07:22So Audrey's gone to Gales for Christmas has she?
07:25Did she fly?
07:26Yeah bless her
07:27Oh I so miss air travel
07:30You know the glamour of the trolley dollies
07:32In-flight entertainments
07:34And on one particularly memorable jaunt across the Grand Canyon
07:37The giddy thrills of the Mile High Club
07:40I hope you two don't want feeding
07:43David?
07:44Worry not we're not peripatetic noshers
07:47We just dropped by to wish you felicitations of the season
07:50And a happy birthday of course
07:52Sorry David's a bit stressed
07:54His birthday present from his mum's gone missing
07:57Well I'm not bothered
07:58Do I look bothered?
07:59Yes David actually you look incredibly bothered
08:02Oh the curse of the light fingered postman strikes again
08:05Abidemi is not light fingered
08:07Abidemi's quite fit actually
08:09Oh broad
08:11You know mother swore blind that she sent me Ben Shepard novelty coasters last Micklemas
08:15Did they arrive?
08:16Did they poncho?
08:18Gail sent a picture that the delivery driver took
08:22Whose doorstep does that look like to you?
08:24I mean I had to make my own out of cork flooring, pastry cutter and a couple of taker breaks
08:28Well it's classic Gail isn't it?
08:30She's got a postcode to house that she lived at for four million years
08:34Could that be Tim and Sally's?
08:37I don't want a stupid present anyway
08:40Oh
08:43Now that
08:45Is one hell of a moist breast
08:48Plumptious that's what it is
08:51Oh we taste buds think it's Christmas
08:52Oh hang on a minute
08:53It is!
08:55And compliments to the chef
08:57Thank you Todd
08:58Cheers
09:00Well I'm the sous chef
09:04Did you get my email?
09:06Oh I'm so sorry that's so rude of me
09:09Yes thank you very much
09:11What email?
09:13Summer's got him the most amazing gift she was telling us before
09:17I'm jealous
09:18I am I am spitting feathers
09:20Right so you know he really fancies Andrew Scott
09:22So I have got him tickets to an Andrew Scott retrospective at a film festival
09:27Including a Q&A with the man himself
09:30Was Andrew Scott in Etty Wainthrop?
09:32Oh lucky Etty
09:35I don't think so
09:37Didn't know you were such a fan of his canon of work
09:41I don't think it was that canon he was interested in
09:45Ah what did the kids get you for you? Was it socks and smellies?
09:48Oh kids honestly
09:49They could be so unimaginative can't they?
09:53Do you know what Daisy got me one Christmas?
09:54What?
09:56A pencil sharpener
09:58No they've not got me now yet but I'm sure that'll be rectified soon
10:03I got to try the form
10:06Didn't I love?
10:08Yeah it's gorgeous
10:09Oh isn't it amazing we can get in the 50 piece shop these days
10:13But Andrew Scott though eh?
10:15I don't think who he is
10:16He thinks you fancy Terry Scott
10:18He's that hot priest in that thing where she went round being posh talking to him
10:22Oh yes no I know I know yeah yeah
10:25Speaking of vicars
10:26But he's taking his time isn't he?
10:28He hasn't his busiest day of the year innit?
10:30No
10:31Ah all these hot priests everywhere eh?
10:34What a lucky boy you are Tore
10:37This is lovely
10:39Really good
10:40You alright Lisa Lou?
10:47Erm I got a text from Roy
10:51He says you rang the hotel that car had bought telling you she never checked in
10:54Oh no biggie
10:56Maybe she changed her mind and went somewhere else
10:58Well obviously she went somewhere else
11:00The question is where and she's disabled the tracker on her phone so
11:04Right
11:06Well I'm nipping out for an hour
11:09What now?
11:10Well I can't divulge too much but even on Christmas Day there's stuff I need to sort for Spain
11:15Crikey you're in and out more times than I've been Carla

12:12I don't believe that it's just fallen out somewhere
12:17Well if it has someone's obviously chucked it which is a good thing no news is good news

12:23No
12:25Oh do you know what Maggie's been so off with me
12:27But then she's like that everyday isn't she?
12:28I'm sure if she'd found it you'd know by now
12:30Yeah that's true
12:31Look calm down
12:33Deep breaths
12:35Alright babe, everything alright in here?
12:37Yeah fine

12:47I know I'm sorry

13:50People are still around you want to make the most of him
13:54It's what we need isn't it?
13:56What?
13:59Human contact
14:00We haven't stolen Gail's presents
14:06Yeah but that looks like your doorstep
14:09Doesn't it?
14:11It's nothing like our doorstep you plum
14:13Well Mary said it was
14:15Well has Mary got a degree in step recognising?
14:18Why it might have been Brian
14:20Have you been shaming us on some sort of chat group?
14:23No they came round for Christmas drinks
14:26Since when were you Pally with Brian and Mary?
14:29I'm not you've never invited us round for Christmas drinks
14:32Look I'm sure I would have noticed if one of our presents said
14:35Happy Birthday David love Mum
14:37Yeah
14:39Yeah I suppose
14:40Well you don't mind I'm not bothered anyway
14:42I didn't want to tell your face that

14:46Mmm
14:49Nice ta
14:51Very festive
14:54I made that
14:56Yeah

15:00Well now you've had your meds and some scram
15:03You're going to leave a nice reassuring voice note for my lady wife
15:06No I'm not
15:08I'm not doing it
15:10You know when she realises I'm missing
15:13She'll come looking for me
15:15Oh right
15:17Do you really think so?
15:19You see that's not the impression I got last night when she was
15:24Oh no I don't want to rub it in
15:27You can probably smell her perfume on me
15:32If I found the evidence that you're corrupt
15:35It's only a matter of time before there's due to
15:37Oi Miss World, shut your face
15:45Just need to reply to my lease
16:00Oh she wants me

16:56Dinner is served
16:57I've got a skirt on, it's a skirt
17:01Oh, oh!
17:02Sound of music!
17:03Yes, yes, yes, yes
17:04My girl, my girl
17:06Oh, I love about a film
17:07I played Maria on the ships
17:08Oh here we go, here we go
17:09Here we go
17:11Oh, I love about a film
17:13I played Maria on the ships
17:15Oh here we go, here we go
17:17Oh we did the whole thing in 40 minutes
17:19It was basically Ed's Highlights
17:21It was me spinning around on the Alp
17:23And then it cut straight to that Rolf
17:24Pulling a gun on those poor kiddies
17:26Good heavens
17:28The wrong side of thirds
17:30Still, the audience went nuts for it
17:32I've got loads of these fascinating anecdotes
17:34Are Glenda
17:35No, if you ever suffer from insomnia
17:36Phone her up and ask her about a 12-minute chitty-chitty banquet
17:39Right, here we go
17:41Oh, the song
17:42It's hard to tell with your acting
17:43Oh, shut up!
17:45Five words?
17:46Yes, please, love
17:48First word, first word
17:50You okay?
17:52They're not answering
17:53Who?
17:55I'm a video call, the kids
17:57What are you doing?
18:00Oh
18:02Always
18:03A little more tips than anything
18:04So
18:05I'll, um
18:06Let's get a point
18:10Exactly
18:11But this is so much better than Tracy's nuts
18:14What is it exactly?
18:17It's a bird within a bird within a bird
18:20Ollie?
18:21It's a chicken inside a duck inside a turkey
18:24Do you like it?
18:25Yeah, it's fantastic, isn't it?
18:26Mmm, so are the roasted
18:28And this nut roast is definitely not crusty
18:30My grandson is a very special cook
18:34In fact, all my boys are special
18:37And they deserve to be surrounded by special things, Lauren
18:41How are the kids, well?
18:46Yeah, fine
18:47You're not tempted to stay with them
18:51My boys deserve only the best
18:54In life, in work, and especially in love
18:57Uh, is it time for Secret Santa yet?
19:05Food first
19:07Fun later
19:11So, um, do you like being a chef?
19:14I do, yeah
19:16Yeah, well I'm in rubbish company
19:17I bet you're not
19:18Nah, I am
19:19I could burn a salad
19:20We'll have to pouch you for speed there, Ollie
19:21You'll need a big pan
19:23That wee lad's going nowhere
19:25Wee lad?
19:26I bet you like that, mate
19:27I think I'll always be his wee lad
19:29A toast
19:30To my boys
19:32Merry Christmas
19:34Merry Christmas
19:35Merry Christmas
19:36Merry Christmas
19:40Hey, the Polar Express is on later
19:42I thought we could all hunker down and watch it together
19:46Don't confuse the boundaries, Kev
19:48We did this for the lads
19:50Confuse the boundaries?
19:52I'm not throwing my lips on you
19:53He's won, I've lost
19:54I'm over it
19:55Kev
19:56Look, he might be younger than me
19:57He might be better looking than me
19:58Don't, you know what?
19:59I can't call with this
20:00I've got a text card telling them we're coming home
20:03Alfie!
20:05We need to go now, kiddo
20:06Can you hurry up?
20:35Mobile, answer call on speakerphone.
20:38Collar?
20:40Collie, are you there?
20:44They have a weird concept, isn't it?
20:47Secrets on tap.
20:48Well, it's a bit weird buying vouchers for spa weekends
20:51for people you hardly even know.
20:53It's a family tradition.
20:55Do you know what? I actually do need socks.
20:57I said that this morning, didn't I, Adam?
20:58She did.
20:59Your pillow talk is outrageous.
21:02And the next one is for...
21:07Drumroll, please.
21:08Oh.
21:12Ben.
21:13Wee-hee.
21:17Is it a jigsaw?
21:19Oh, come on, what is it?
21:20Wouldn't you like to know?
21:25To my baby.
21:27Give it to me.
21:27Let him read.
21:28Ben, give it to me, please, give it to me.
21:30I said, let him read it.
21:33You bitch.
21:34Let my son read the lovely gift I got him.
21:38What is it?
21:39Oh, just evidence of an affair.
21:41What?
21:42Between Eva and Adam.
21:44Why are you so intent on killing our relationship?
22:09Maybe I don't want my son to be with a two-timing tart.
22:12Read it out to the group.
22:14Ma.
22:15It's a letter to the baby she aborted when she and Ben were going through a rough patch.
22:21Rough patch?
22:22He probably gave her a few dirty looks.
22:25He went back to his wife?
22:26And you end running back to the groin of his lordship here.
22:30I'm so sorry.
22:32Adam, my rock.
22:34This is true.
22:35Your words, not mine.
22:36There was no affair.
22:37I don't think that Adam's been...
22:38Babe, I can explain.
22:39Well, go ahead then.
22:40And Adam continued to be her rock when she aborted their child.
22:45Oh, you're not a very nice person, are you?
22:47Do you know the worst of it?
22:48It's still going on.
22:49Oh, please.
22:50No, I'm not having it.
22:51It's not because it wasn't in the first place, babe.
22:53I promise.
22:54Well, it's got enough all to do with you.
22:56Is this why you two were holding hands earlier?
22:57What?
22:58No.
22:59Are you happy now?
23:00Not by a long shot.
23:02Because you have broken my son's heart.
23:04Whether or not Eva had an abortion is, frankly, none of your business.
23:08Is it not, frankly?
23:09Well, isn't it a woman's right to choose?
23:11What she chose was infidelity.
23:13What kind of a mother are you?
23:15Daniel.
23:15To do this to your own family and on Christmas Day?
23:18You can take that smirk off your face at all.
23:20Mate, I'm not smirking.
23:21Nothing happened.
23:22Who do you think you're giving your dirty looks to?
23:24You're completely misreading the situation.
23:26Aye.
23:26Well, misread...
23:27Yeah, don't worry, Betsy.
23:36I'm fine.
23:37I'm having a really lovely holiday.
23:41Only Roy rang that hotel and you're not staying there.
23:45No, I had to move in the end.
23:49I'm staying at a new place now.
23:51It's called Rhubarb Hill Hotel.
23:55Rhubarb Hill Hotel.
23:57Yeah, yeah, I'm in the busing suite.
24:00Well, I hope you're having a good time.
24:03I'm missing you.
24:17James, get dressed and get up.
24:19Abby's on her way back.
24:20What?
24:21Just hurry up.
24:22Be quiet, I'm calling her.
24:23Hiya, love.
24:27Where are you?
24:28I'm just outside the main door.
24:30Wicked.
24:31Listen, would you do me a favour?
24:32Would you just go to the car and get me charger out of the glove box, please?
24:36I haven't got the keys.
24:38Oh, but I thought you always had them.
24:40Oh, God, you're lazy.
24:42Oh, no, hang on.
24:43Tell her I've got them here.
24:44Yeah, do you mind?
24:46Yeah.
24:46I'm running out of juice.
24:47Yeah, of course I can.
24:48Just give us a sec.
24:49Right, well, come on, we need to go and get Cal's charger.
24:55Please, Vicky.
25:07One more move like that and I'm phoning the police.
25:10Why do you hate me so much?
25:12Sit down.
25:13This could take some time.
25:14Oi.
25:15Have you got anything to say for yourself?
25:17Oh, I've got plenty.
25:18And don't you oi me.
25:20Lies.
25:20All lies.
25:21I never had an affair with Adam.
25:23The letter says different.
25:24He supported me while...
25:26How can you trust a certain word she says?
25:28Well, I was supporting our baby.
25:29What?
25:33The baby was ours.
25:37What was with that stupid hotel name?
25:46Well, I don't know, do I?
25:48I didn't think on my feet.
25:49You had a knife pointing at me.
25:52I don't know why I said rhubarb or whatever.
25:54You're giving me a headache.
25:56Do you talk like this with Lise?
25:58No wonder she's gone off you.
26:00Biggest regret of my life, she said.
26:02Meeting Carla.
26:03The biggest regret of my life is following you, are you?
26:06You did not.
26:09Because I'd have known.
26:12Don't lie.
26:15Okay.
26:17All right.
26:18Costello told me the address.
26:21The rest you do know.
26:22What rest do I know?
26:24That I broke in here.
26:25That you caught me red-handed.
26:26You know, but if I were you, I wouldn't have left an incriminating burner phone just lying around linking me to a hit on Costello.
26:37Oh, you're so boring.
26:41Right.
26:43Well, I can't stand around here chewing the cud all day.
26:45People to see, wives to bed.
26:49So she's not your wife, is she?
26:52Because you're officially dead.
26:54So that makes her your widow.
26:55Funny you mention dead.
26:59Because Lisa said that sleeping with you was like going to bed with a corpse.
27:14Happy Christmas, Ducky.
27:15Oh.
27:26Oh.
27:27Oh.
27:28Somewhere.
27:28Oh.
27:30Oh, now that is what I call a beautiful set of conflicts.
27:34Aren't you lucky?
27:36You.
27:36Yeah.
27:37It was at a good service, Billy.
27:40It was.
27:40It was lovely.
27:41Was it all Christmasy?
27:42It was.
27:43It was.
27:43We had carols around the crib and mince pies afterwards.
27:47Oh, mince pies.
27:48We should have gone, George.
27:49Oh.
27:50Was there, um, mulled wine?
27:53It's a family service, love.
27:55Not happy hour at the legs of man.
27:57You all right over there, Theo?
27:59You're looking a bit...
28:00Oh, son.
28:01Oh.
28:01Oh.
28:02Are we out staying our welcome?
28:03Oh, no, no, no, no.
28:04Oh, wait.
28:05Tell us.
28:06Well, no, you can tell me.
28:07I mean, I'm very hard to offend.
28:10Unless it's racism, I do take offence at that.
28:13No, no, honestly, of course not.
28:14You're fine.
28:15You're a worse actor than she is.
28:19I feel like that's bullying, that.
28:22I'm going to torture my union.
28:23National Union of Brace and Barmaids.
28:27Speaking of which, shall we, um, shall we adjourn to the Rovers?
28:31Yes.
28:31Oh, no, no, no.
28:32Don't leave on my account.
28:33Although I think old Torrington's ready for a lie down, isn't you?
28:36Yeah, you are looking a bit quiet over there, mate.
28:38I think he's had one over the eight.
28:40I'm fine.
28:41That's what they all say.
28:42I'll tell you what, Billy, he'll miss you.
28:44Found out today he's got a thing for old priests.
28:46I have to get myself a dog collar.
28:48Show us what's under your castle.
28:51All right, well, um...
28:52Yeah, well, um...
28:53Nice to see you both.
28:55I'll be here briefly.
28:56Come here.
28:57Yeah, sorry about that.
29:01You get your bag and I'll get your coat.
29:02Oh, come here.
29:04Oh, Merry Christmas.
29:05Thanks ever so much.
29:09Bye, love.
29:09Bye, Summer.
29:11Yeah, get that down.
29:12All right.
29:14Bye.
29:15You know full well when we were going through a rough patch.
29:17And you know full well why we were.
29:19Don't put that on me.
29:20So this abortion's on me, is it?
29:21The only thing that I regret about that termination is not telling you.
29:26But, babe, how could I?
29:27How could I bring a baby into that?
29:29You weren't even taking my calls.
29:30You were living back with the dragon.
29:32Don't call her that.
29:33And whenever we did talk to each other, we were just taking shots.
29:36And yet you still got pregnant by me.
29:39Allegedly.
29:41Don't you dare.
29:43Sorry.
29:44I was in no fit state to bring a baby and Susie up on my own.
29:49Now, if I'd have thought for one second that we were going to get back together, I would have told you.
29:55So where does Adam fit into all of this?
29:56He doesn't.
29:57Not really.
29:58Except the fact that he was a supportive friend.
30:00He was meeting a client in Hull.
30:02I bumped into him at the Paragon Interchange.
30:04He was getting the train.
30:05I was getting the bus.
30:06Kismet.
30:09Just to let you know, your pub is open.
30:13Oh.
30:13Oh, it's my pub when it suits you.
30:16Well, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt you to put a shift in, Maggie.
30:18Get your hands as dirty as your tongue.
30:20Are you going to let her speak to me like that?
30:26Very exciting to be summoned here.
30:29Like this.
30:29It's very nice.
30:30Quite palatial.
30:33Mind you, you must be earning a bob or two now, aren't you?
30:36So you've actually spoken to Carla?
30:39Not me.
30:40That's...
30:41Oh.
30:42So, how is she?
30:45What does she say?
30:46Erm, she said she was at a hotel.
30:48Can't believe Betts actually spoke to her.
30:50It's reassuring, though.
30:52Is it?
30:53I want to be.
30:54Well, doesn't it just confirm what you've been worrying about all along?
30:59That she's ignoring you blatantly?
31:01Well, I think I'll make a very good barrister, I will, because I've got a very incisive mind.
31:08And also, I'll look great in the wig and the...
31:11Oh, I see.
31:13My glass appears to be almost entirely empty.
31:16It's a box.
31:18Hmm.
31:18It's warm, though, isn't it, in here?
31:19It's probably evaporated.
31:21Oh.
31:23Hi, Bonnie.
31:24I'm home.
31:25Um...
31:25Oh.
31:26We have company.
31:28Merry Christmas, stranger.
31:30Is that the sister?
31:32Hello.
31:33This is Roy's friend, Evelyn.
31:35Hi, I'm Kim.
31:37Hi, I spoke to Carla.
31:39Brilliant, finally.
31:41Er, how was she?
31:42It's hard to tell, really.
31:44Erm, what are you doing?
31:47I'm ringing her.
31:48Oh, please.
31:50What?
31:50I mean, like she's going to answer?
31:55Don't you think you should just face facts, love?
31:58And what's that?
31:59You know, maybe.
32:02Maybe?
32:03Maybe.
32:05She's just not cut out to be a lesbian.
32:08No, a lot of people aren't.
32:11No, I wasn't.
32:15Sorry to send you on a wild goose chase.
32:17I honestly thought my charger was in the car.
32:19Oh, forget my own head if it wasn't screwed on.
32:21So, what have you been up to then while me and Kev have been pretending to play up with families?
32:25Oh, just watching paint dry.
32:28Hmm.
32:29Well, sounds like me and you have had very similar days.
32:33Shall we, erm...
32:35Shall we make up for it now?
32:37What exactly were you thinking of?
32:39Well, come to the bedroom and I'll show you.
32:44Dad!
32:46Dad!
32:49What's that aftershave you're wearing? It smells different.
32:51Must be that old shower gel I used earlier.
32:54What's this?
32:57It's nice, isn't it?
32:58Erm, I found it down the side of the couch.
33:01Must be the previous tenants.
33:05Now, where were we?
33:07En route to the bedroom.
33:09On a one-way ticket to paradise.
33:10I often wonder if you're a statue, because you've got one hell of a brass neck on you.
33:24That secret Santa stunt was evil.
33:27I am a grandchild down because of you.
33:30Are you not going to defend me here, Ben?
33:32Why should I?
33:33She's right, it was evil.
33:35I'm not bothered.
33:36Put that drink down, ma.
33:41And get her out of my house now.
33:43I beg your pardon.
33:44I want you gone.
33:45Are you going to side with that little tart over me?
33:51Right first time.
33:52His poor, beautiful face.
34:10What did you hit him?
34:12It wasn't me.
34:13When a man gets hit like that, usually over a woman.
34:17No.
34:17Maybe someone's got the hots for Elliot.
34:20Who doesn't have the hots for Elliot?
34:21Did I just say that out loud?
34:25Yes, George.
34:27Keep it down.
34:28People might think we're swingers.
34:29Oh, like these two.
34:31Be of yourself, Mary's, if we're swingers.
34:33I'll know what you're doing later.
34:37I'm going to have a nice shiner, thanks to you.
34:38You had no right.
34:39Oh, shut up.
34:41No, he's right.
34:43Adam, I'm sorry.
34:46I shouldn't have reacted the way I did.
34:47I've just spoken with the weaver.
34:48She's explained everything.
34:49Um, accept my apology.
34:55Well, this won't be a Christmas that we forget any time, see?
34:58You've got a lot to save yourself.
35:01Hey.
35:02Sorry.
35:04And I'll hear you've got to believe, Adam, none of it's true.
35:07Oh, I never believed a word.
35:08But you want to have a word with your mother.
35:10Has she calmed down?
35:11She's packing her bags.
35:14Vastard to leave.
35:15What?
35:17Any sign of Megan?
35:18She's gone home.
35:20She don't feel well.
35:22She wanted me to tell you, but whoops.
35:24I forgot.
35:25All right.
35:28Listen.
35:30I know that you've got the hots for your teacher,
35:32you little git.
35:32But how about you leave her for the grown-ups, eh?
35:34There's a good life.
35:35Right.
35:36Thanks very much for a memorable day.
35:40Shall we go next door?
35:45Hey.
35:46I always wondered why you were so weird.
35:48But now that I've seen what your granny's capable of,
35:51it's all slipping into place.
35:52David!
36:07David!
36:11Where have you been?
36:13Er, Manor's, Will.
36:15Been helping Lauren with Frankie so she could work.
36:18Daniel's already gone, he said to say to her and that.
36:20Er, you need to be fine.
36:22Be careful.
36:23Do I?
36:24Yes, Will.
36:25You do.
36:26You were so vile to Daniel today.
36:28Classic.
36:29I defend him, why don't you?
36:31You're gonna give the game away at this rate.
36:33And the state of him.
36:35You know, he had his hands all over my woman.
36:38You're drunk.
36:40What's he gonna be like on your little weekend away?
36:44Oh, do you know what?
36:46I can't be doing with you when you're like this.
36:52Ha, weird.
36:56I'm sorry, what is that?
36:57It's a stimulator.
36:58Your own mother has got you a...
36:59It's a vagus nerve stimulator.
37:02David, not in front of Lily.
37:03No, no, it's totally sleep.
37:05Shona!
37:05No, that's what it is.
37:07It's an actual sleep aid.
37:08What?
37:09Granny Gail's texted.
37:10She said she sent us all a video.
37:11Oh, get it up, get it up on tablet court.
37:13Should we not wait for Andy, Sarah and Uncle Nick?
37:14Well, she's put it on plot chart, hasn't it?
37:16She can see it on there.
37:17Aw, I can't believe she sent a video.
37:19It's me.
37:22I speak to you today on what is, of course,
37:27our first wedding anniversary.
37:29One of the longest marriages, this.
37:31Thank you, David, for my extra large jar of olives.
37:38Very funny.
37:39I hope you've all been having the most wonderful day.
37:44And, of course, David, happy birthday.
37:51How can it be 35 years since I first held you in my arms?
37:58I hope by now you've unwrapped your sleep aid.
38:02I just wanted to say that, though I may be far away,
38:10you're all very much in my thoughts.
38:15And, David and Shona, you and your baby are utmost in my heart.
38:25Life is never easy.
38:29Life is never straightforward.
38:32But we're a strong, resilient family.
38:37And we can weather any storm.
38:42I love you all very much.
38:45So, till the next time we speak,
38:51as the famous carol says,
38:54the hopes and fears of all the years
39:03are met in thee tonight.
39:07I wish you all a very happy Christmas.
39:15I just want to say thank you.
39:30What for?
39:30How are you, Fawn?
39:35And just being so nice and patient today.
39:41It's our first Christmas, innit?
39:43Wanted to be special.
39:47In that case, thank you, too.
39:49For what?
39:50For being you.
39:53Your authentic self.
39:57Can't be easy.
39:59You know, with your various issues.
40:03I'm...
40:04Unless you were being sarcastic.
40:06I wasn't.
40:07Stand up.
40:13You sure you weren't being sarcastic?
40:15Yeah.
40:21You sure?
40:22Merry Christmas, Tata.
40:29Merry Christmas, Tata.
40:29Isn't that, um, Ojemaflip?
40:59Maggie.
41:00From the pub?
41:01Correct.
41:02Introduce me.
41:03I've never met her.
41:04If we pull up, I'm thinking free drinks.
41:06Hello.
41:07Hello.
41:08Oh, I say, what a beautiful coat.
41:11I love that colour.
41:13Merry Christmas, Maggie.
41:15I don't know if you've met my dear friend, Evelyn Plummer.
41:20Merry Christmas to you, and may 2026 bring you everything you wish yourself and more.
41:26Are you off travelling?
41:28Oh.
41:29Are you all right, Maggie?
41:31No.
41:32Any idiot can see she's not all right.
41:33She's in pieces.
41:34Oh.
41:35Let's just say, I've fallen out with Ben.
41:39Oh dear.
41:40Who's Ben?
41:41My son.
41:43Well, maybe it's just bad karma, you know, because you shut the pub on Christmas Day.
41:50We were having a family meal, but everything went awry.
41:56Well, if there's anything I could do.
42:00Do you know any decent hotels around here?
42:04Well, I could drive you over to Chariot Square, if you like.
42:08Good thinking, Batman.
42:11And could you call ahead when we're en route?
42:14My phone is running out of juice.
42:16Just tell them one night, one person with breakfast, and try and get a free upgrade to a suite.
42:23Oh, I'm rather sorry we came over in the chest plate.
42:35And relax.
42:36My lady.
42:45Quite good sir.
42:49I'm sorry.
42:51Isn't that my line?
42:53I should've been there for you.
42:56We got there eventually, didn't we?
42:59I'll never let you down again.
43:06I'll sing a song
43:07The real mountains, yeah
43:11I turned my face away
43:15I dreamed about you
43:20Got on a lucky one
43:24Came in and looked into one
43:29I love God
43:36I love God
44:06I love God
