00:00What happened? Is he dead? Who did he do?
00:21I don't know. I just come up for you. Both laying on the floor. You woke up in a game.
00:24I pushed him and then he pushed me back and grabbed me and smashed my head and I blacked out.
00:28Why shouldn't we call an ambulance? He's dead. Was there anyone else here?
00:32I think it's my fault for running him up.
00:35No, no. You were fine, Kat. He was alive and then he was coming at me and he wouldn't leave.
00:39And then he said we should be a family and I said no and he got angry. You have to believe me.
00:43But calm down. Calm down. Kat, can you get down there, please?
00:47Wait in there, right? Sit by the window. Look at the tree, but don't look at him.
00:50You're coming down or what? You're waiting there, okay? And calm down. Go on.
00:55Kat, you're coming down or what? We're really busy.
00:58Sorry to interrupt everybody. Jean, can you help me behind the bar, please, lad?
01:05No. He knows I can't work the pump.
01:07Well, she's out.
01:09No, no, no, no, no, no. No, this is a power car. We've got a power car.
01:17Mum, can we just go and get some chips?
01:20No, we've already paid for three meals.
01:22All right, listen, don't panic. I'll have it.
01:23Sorry for a second. Are you all right?
01:25The fuse must have gone.
01:29No, I've checked. It's the electrics. They're gone. Need to get everyone out.
01:31It's all right. I can't check it, don't I?
01:33Alfie, the electrics are gone. We need to get everyone out this minute.
01:36Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:39What's wrong?
01:40I'll tell you everything. Just clear the pub now.
01:42I'm serious. I'm serious.
01:45What's this going on? We've got to keep on rolling, haven't we?
01:47It's going to be an absolute disaster, run with your chers.
01:50The, uh, the electrics have gone.
01:52Yeah.
01:53They've gone?
01:54Yeah, some rats must have eaten through the main cable.
01:57Basically, we're screwed, so...
01:59Oh.
01:59We could find a different venue?
02:01Yeah, it's a great idea, isn't it?
02:03My house. My house is free.
02:04There you go. Great idea.
02:06How's that a great idea?
02:06Yeah, I don't mean to shoot you down, Alfie, but Zach's right.
02:09How are you going to fit 34 people around Gene's kitchen table?
02:13It's logistically impossible.
02:15Deliver out. Like in the app.
02:17Shrimpy can do it with his mates on their scooters, wearing elf ears.
02:21There you go. Great idea.
02:22Jane, you're on fire. What do you reckon, chef?
02:24Yeah, yeah, if we're going to do it, let's do it quick.
02:26Yeah.
02:26Come on. Come on.
02:27Go, go, go.
02:28Right.
02:34Listen up.
02:35Come on.
02:35Interaction here, okay?
02:36Now, I have some good news and some bad news, okay?
02:42So, the good news is Christmas dinner is still on!
02:50Okay, right, just hold your horses, okay?
02:53Because the bad news is you're going to have to have it from the comfort of your own home.
02:58Hold on, hold on. I haven't finished.
03:00Make sure it's going to be personally delivered to you.
03:04Okay, now, you know, listen, granted, the Yorkshire puddings might be a little bit flat.
03:10I've taken that person.
03:11This isn't work. I want my money back.
03:12Okay, we'll do a discount tomorrow, okay?
03:14So, if everybody could make your way home, on your way home, take your drinks with you.
03:19George, help me out here, mate.
03:20Come on, come on, you're out here, right?
03:22Let's go.
03:24Let's go.
03:24Take your drinks with you on this one occasion.
03:28Oh, do you think I should call Anthony?
03:44It's not your fault he behaved like that.
03:47Ah, let him soak. He'll be back with his toe between his legs.
03:51If you think Zoe, you will forgive him.
03:56But I'll be back later to tell you all about it.
03:59I wouldn't.
04:00Bye.
04:01Sorry.
04:06Okay.
04:06Are you thinking about the grandchildren?
04:18It's always nice to have more family around.
04:26Well, you can talk to him when he gets back.
04:30There are ways to find forgiveness.
04:32But let's not dwell on that when the children are here.
04:35Right.
04:39There is one cracker left.
04:41Who wants to pull it?
04:44The pub's empty.
04:45They've gone.
04:45I've got rid of them, all right?
04:47It all went dark.
04:49Nay.
04:50I can't handle this.
04:52I can't.
04:52I can't.
04:53I'm losing my mind.
04:54Listen, you need to focus, all right?
04:57We need to start thinking clearly.
04:59Do you hear me?
05:00Right, we've got to decide what to do with him.
05:04Phil.
05:05Phil.
05:05Yeah, yeah, yeah, Phil.
05:06Yeah.
05:08He'll help us.
05:10Okay, everyone.
05:11All phones to me for the rubs of the game.
05:13All right, play in the game.
05:15Come on, Phil.
05:15Don't be a spoiled sport, eh?
05:17Yeah, you're only here because of Lexi.
05:18Oh, come on, Phil.
05:19For me.
05:20Yeah, for Nigel.
05:22Eh?
05:22He might not get many more chances.
05:25Well, it better not be charades.
05:27That's all I have to do.
05:28Hey!
05:28Hey!
05:29Hey!
05:30Saved by the bell.
05:31Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!
05:32What's the rules, Phil?
05:32No phones.
05:33Oh, do you like the care?
05:34It's Kat.
05:34I'll bring it.
05:35It's Kat?
05:36I made it up, do you like?
05:37You can phone her back later and stick it on silent.
05:42What's the cut to him calling you a Christmas day?
05:43Okay.
05:44Brick to jail.
05:46Ah!
05:47Yes, that's a good rock.
05:48Yes.
05:48Okay.
05:49I'll go round there and find him.
05:52Zoe, are you hearing me?
05:55I thought I was meeting my son today.
05:56Well, you ain't.
05:57But you will one day.
05:59I will?
05:59Yes, one day soon.
06:00And your daughter, we will make it happen.
06:02Okay?
06:03As soon as we've sorted this out.
06:06I never meant for this to happen.
06:08I mean, I loved him once.
06:09He changed so much.
06:11Right.
06:11Don't move, okay?
06:12Okay?
06:19It's him.
06:22It's my son.
06:24I didn't get him anything.
06:25What?
06:26A present.
06:27I mean, why did I forget?
06:28What if he's got me something?
06:29It ain't your son, right?
06:31No, it's not.
06:32You can't go.
06:32You can't find us here.
06:44Hello?
06:49Hello?
06:52Hello?
06:57Hello?
07:04Chrissy.
07:14Ladies.
07:17Both of you.
07:19What a treat.
07:20Where is he?
07:22Where's my son?
07:24He's not coming, I'm afraid.
07:26Did you send that card?
07:28Yeah.
07:29Sorry to get you home, sir.
07:32So it's been you.
07:34You're the one who's been torturing me.
07:37Torturing?
07:38A few harmless games.
07:41When did you get here?
07:43When?
07:44Have you been creeping around here today?
07:47No, just got here.
07:48Why?
07:49Right, this is all too weird now.
07:51You need to get out now.
07:53What are you doing here?
07:55I thought it was time we had a little reunion.
07:58It's been so long.
07:59And look at you.
08:01You're not a drippy little girl anymore.
08:03Life's really toughened you up.
08:07Right, stop playing games.
08:08I want you gone.
08:09You have not changed a bit.
08:11Still a scrubber.
08:12I mean it.
08:13Me too.
08:14Get out.
08:15No.
08:16I want to know why she's here.
08:21Well, come on out of it.
08:23Let's have a drink first.
08:24You know, settle the nerves.
08:26You seem a little jumpy.
08:29Jumpy?
08:30Are you surprised?
08:31You've just broken in here.
08:33It was open.
08:34You want to up your security.
08:36Number of violent deaths in this place.
08:42Right, okay.
08:43What are you having?
08:45I'll have a brine to you, please.
08:48Rum and coke for me.
08:51Oh, darling.
08:53Darling girl.
08:54You're just in time.
08:56What, you two know each other?
08:58Yeah.
08:59We met recently.
09:00You think you'd feel it.
09:11A connection.
09:14That's what you said.
09:15It's you, isn't it?
09:26I'm your mum.
09:33No.
09:36You're just the woman who gave birth to me.
09:38Oh, Susie.
09:43You're right.
09:43It's nice.
09:45So what happened to your lip?
09:48That's nothing.
09:50You should have seen the other elf.
09:52Hmm.
09:56Do you need to get out?
09:59Was it your ex?
10:01No.
10:02It's my son.
10:03He's in my bad books.
10:07Yeah, my brother's in mine.
10:09Oh, yeah?
10:10Yeah, he's always been jealous of me, isn't he?
10:12Is he the other elf?
10:13No, he just...
10:15always makes out he's trying to do the right thing,
10:17but really, he's just...
10:19Dad, he just wants to see me suffer.
10:23I think he's always wanted to be me, really.
10:24Jealousy, isn't it?
10:29It's a judgement as well, though.
10:30You know, he's had just as many affairs as me.
10:33He's made just as many wrong turns as me,
10:35but, you know, he's still got his family, innit?
10:37I ain't.
10:39Because he likes his true colours.
10:43It's me.
10:43I'm honest, isn't I?
10:44You know?
10:47I'm trying to be something that I ain't.
10:52Uh-uh.
10:53I said one drink.
10:56Yeah.
10:59Yeah.
11:00Sorry.
11:02It's probably boring you.
11:05No, I'm just, um...
11:07I'm just not the therapist type.
11:15That's what we're gonna do if we ain't drinking.
11:19Well.
11:20Santa's not climbed up my chimney yet.
11:24But have you been good?
11:28What do you think?
11:31No.
11:34And I've got a feeling
11:35you're about to be a lot worse.
11:37You're a star, mate.
11:47I'll let the peanut water start, Alfie.
11:50Edging, shrimp, slavish with a smile.
11:52Get Alfie, move.
11:53You're making it in the kitchen now.
11:54Yeah, I was just gonna pop over and check out in the bit, OK?
11:56No, you're not.
11:57Not right now.
11:57Now, listen, I have heard all these reviews about Zach's puddings.
12:00Now, if I'm gonna put on the calories,
12:02I'm gonna put on the calories with taste.
12:03Get Alfie now.
12:04Oh, yeah, oh.
12:07Alfie!
12:10I can't believe it.
12:11I can't believe you're here.
12:12Don't touch it.
12:12Have you two been working together to torment Zach?
12:15Did you start that fire?
12:17Sorry, can't claim credit for that.
12:19My little protégé went rogue.
12:21You could have killed her.
12:22I never meant for it to go that far.
12:23Listen, Zoe, all these games have been playing,
12:25all this messing with your head.
12:26How do you know it's true that she's your daughter?
12:28It's true.
12:28Where's the proof?
12:31Here.
12:32See?
12:32I don't need to see it.
12:33That could be fake.
12:34No, it's not.
12:34I know it's you.
12:35I know it is.
12:36Change your tune.
12:37Where's your brother?
12:38Oh, he's the one you want.
12:39You know what?
12:39I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it's just me.
12:42I thought you died.
12:43Because you couldn't be bothered
12:44to stick around the hospital long enough to hear me cry.
12:47I took you away.
12:48You weren't breathing.
12:48Now, maybe I should be flattered
12:50because at least you didn't just abandon me
12:52like you did my brother.
12:53Where is he?
12:54I don't know, Zoe.
12:55Why?
12:56Why?
12:56What happened to you?
12:57A bit late to show you care now, Zoe.
12:59I care.
12:59I care.
13:00So I had you two know each other.
13:01Oh, we'd known each other a while, haven't we, Jez?
13:05I was back in London seeing my parole officers.
13:08I mean, they can't get enough of me.
13:09I'm a popular girl.
13:11Anyway, I open up my phone
13:12and there's a picture of my old pal, Zoe.
13:14You've been through the wars.
13:16You were shot.
13:17I thought, well, it's a sign.
13:18I'm going to send flowers.
13:20Better still, I'll take them in person.
13:22But when I got there, they wouldn't let anyone near you.
13:25And that's when I bumped into this lovely girl.
13:27You were at the hospital?
13:28Yeah.
13:29I saw your picture, too.
13:31But I actually wanted to know who you were.
13:33But it turns out we actually have something in common.
13:35See, we both hate you.
13:38We wanted to teach you a lesson.
13:40I know why you'd hate me, Jasmine.
13:42I really do.
13:43Jasmine, listen, when she gave birth to you,
13:45she wasn't in her right mind.
13:47Her hormones were raging all over the place.
13:49She didn't have her family around us.
13:50She was so vulnerable and so depressed.
13:52Then why not come back?
13:53Why not try and find me?
13:55To find us?
13:56What about my dad?
13:57Does he know about us?
13:58She didn't know your dad.
14:00All right?
14:00We've only found out that you're alive today.
14:04If she'd known, she'd have been just as desperate to find you as she was her son.
14:0719 years!
14:09You are 19 years too late!
14:11I'm sorry!
14:12I'm so sorry!
14:14Blah, blah, blah, Zoe.
14:15She doesn't want to hear it.
14:16Don't listen to her.
14:17She is nothing to you.
14:18She's been there for me.
14:20She gets me.
14:21Yeah.
14:22We are kindred spirits.
14:24What has Zoe ever done to you, eh?
14:26It was Sharon that called the old bill.
14:28She's the reason why you went away.
14:30Listen.
14:32I thought I was over all of this.
14:34I wasn't going to come back.
14:35But when I met this lovely girl, and I found out that you walked out on your babies, I don't know, it all just sort of brewed up again.
14:44If you hadn't slept with my husband, blow my family apart.
14:48If your husband hadn't been such a pervy old git!
14:50She made a choice!
14:52And then you just walked away.
14:54Just like you walked away from your babies.
14:56But that's you all over, isn't it, Zoe?
14:58You are selfish to the core.
15:00You never take responsibility for anything.
15:02You just walk away from everything, even your own kids.
15:06But there are responsibilities.
15:08And you have to take accountability.
15:11I pay for my crimes.
15:13And now you're going to pay for yours.
15:15But your punishment is going to be in here.
15:18Because, yeah, you've got a lovely little girl.
15:22And you're never going to get to know her.
15:25Zoe.
15:27Zoe!
15:29Jasmine, look at her.
15:31Yeah, she has really suffered.
15:33She's spent her whole life regretting this.
15:35And, yes, she makes bad decisions, but she's not a bad person.
15:39There's here, Chrissie.
15:41She's the evil one.
15:43Not my Zoe.
15:44Not your mum.
15:46Listen to her.
15:47Please, just listen to her.
15:49It's not often that I side with Kat Slater.
15:56But she's right.
15:59Chrissie Watts is evil.
16:00The three of us.
16:12Back here again.
16:15Who's going to turn up next?
16:17Ghost of Den?
16:20I'm worried about Kat.
16:21Well, worry about her after you've delivered this.
16:23Oh, I cannot believe we pulled that off.
16:32Yeah, I must admit, I did have my doubts.
16:34Tell you what, that's off to you, Jean.
16:35Oh.
16:36You had the vision.
16:40I thought about applying to MasterChef on occasion.
16:43Well, I did the cooking.
16:45Well, maybe I could come and work for you and be your sous-chef.
16:47Oh, I'm sorry, but Barney's got that on cover, didn't you, mate?
16:51Sous-sous-chef.
16:52I'm serious.
16:57Oh.
16:59You said you weren't here for drama.
17:02Yeah, that's all good.
17:03Are you two related?
17:06No.
17:07She's my daughter.
17:08Could have been mine.
17:09Same age as the baby I lost in prison.
17:11I think it's time you all left.
17:19No!
17:20This is my pub and I want you all gone.
17:21No, wait, please, Sam, you've got to say something.
17:24Tell her I didn't just sleep with her husband.
17:25That's right, we should go.
17:26No, I don't care what happened between the three of you.
17:28It's you I've got the problem with.
17:29She has manipulated you into seeking revenge.
17:32Hang on, what?
17:33Are you telling me that she's been the one tormenting you?
17:35Look, she's right, OK?
17:37Back then, I saw Chrissie manipulate Zoe.
17:39Treat her like a little pet.
17:42Got her to do whatever she wanted.
17:44Sound familiar?
17:47Worst time of my life.
17:48What happened back then?
17:49Well, that makes three of us.
17:51Yeah.
17:54You need to move on, Chrissie.
17:56You didn't spend 20 years in prison.
17:58Yeah, well, you're free now, OK?
18:00And I did my time.
18:01Well, you said you wanted justice for me.
18:03Not you.
18:05You killed two birds with one stone.
18:06What's the difference?
18:08We're a team.
18:08That's exactly what she said to us before she tried to frame us for Den's murder.
18:14Well, she turned on Zoe, and then she turned on me.
18:17Well, they made it so easy.
18:18They didn't have two brain cells to rub together.
18:21Now you on the other hand.
18:22You know, we could have all stuck together.
18:24But that's not Chrissie's style.
18:26And all this rubbish about how you could have been her daughter pulling the maternal card.
18:30It's a fantasy.
18:31You don't know what you're talking about.
18:34I should have smashed your brains in.
18:36You make one more threat, and I swear I will call the police.
18:41Starting fires that nearly kill people.
18:44That's not a good look on an ex-con, is it?
18:46Not the police gonna do.
18:47I haven't done anything.
18:49My hands are clean.
18:50Oh, you think they'd believe a teenager did it?
18:52And not a woman who's already convicted of murder.
18:54I've had enough of this.
18:55I've had enough.
18:55I'm going.
18:56No, wait.
18:57I know you hate me, Jasmine.
18:59And you have every right to.
19:01And I don't blame you for any of it.
19:04But know this.
19:05I will never close my heart to you.
19:08I will be here waiting.
19:10Waiting to be your mum.
19:12I will be here waiting to be your mum.
19:18Ah, well.
19:22I'm sorry, Zoe.
19:25Ladies, goodnight.
19:26We should do it again.
19:27It's been such fun.
19:29Happy Christmas.
19:34Are you all right?
19:37Yeah, we're fine.
19:39I've got it from here.
19:40It's fine.
19:41Why don't I call the police, Kat?
19:43I mean, she nearly killed Zoe in that fire.
19:44No.
19:45It's fine, Sam.
19:47We've got it.
19:50Thanks.
19:58We've got to do with that to me.
20:05Congratulations.
20:06Well done.
20:07Let's hit a bar and celebrate.
20:09No, thanks.
20:09Oh, come on.
20:11You don't want to listen to them.
20:13I meant what I said in there.
20:16You're like a daughter to me.
20:18I'll take care of you.
20:19You only look out for number one, by the sounds of things.
20:22Besides, I'm not a kid anymore.
20:23I don't need anyone.
20:25So what are you going to do?
20:27Zoe might talk a good game.
20:29But do you think the Slaters are going to welcome you in after what you've done?
20:32Don't worry.
20:33You've won.
20:34Zoe never gets to know her daughter, and I know I don't stand a chance around here, but
20:38I am better off by myself than sticking with you.
20:41Jazz.
20:42Okay, fine.
20:46You do what you want.
20:49But the police are going to come around here, and if you so much as breathe my name, I will
20:55come for you.
21:06You know, you can change.
21:10But why would I want to?
21:13I'm perfect as I am.
21:14Right, you stay here.
21:29I want to go and find Alfie.
21:32I'll tell you what's happened to you, and we'll make a plan.
21:35Right?
21:35Yeah?
21:37Okay, now.
21:39Why, you always stick by me, no matter what.
21:42I felt it with Jasmine.
21:44That's unconditional love, darling.
21:46That's what you felt.
21:48You're a mum now, and I'm really proud of you.
21:51Right now, we've got to deal with Anthony.
21:52We've got a dead body upstairs, remember?
21:54But all that talk again, going over the past, all the secrets, and I didn't worry.
21:59I can't bear it.
22:01I cannot go through all that again.
22:02Not this time.
22:03This time, I've got your back.
22:05I am not having you going to prison for this.
22:07I'm your mum, okay?
22:09Right.
22:10You stay here.
22:11Bolt the door behind me.
22:13Bye.
22:14Bye.
22:22Peace.
22:42Bye.
22:43Well, he's there now, don't he?
23:00Yeah.
23:01What?
23:02So he killed him?
23:03Yeah.
23:04I don't know.
23:05I think it was an accident.
23:06Oh, God.
23:07Look, we need to do something, please.
23:08Just help me.
23:09Help me!
23:10Can I?
23:15Another lifetime, I made a different choice.
23:33I didn't run.
23:37And you and me, we're good.
23:43I mean, you ate me most of the time and I shout at you for leaving your clothes on the floor
23:52and you slam doors and I tell everybody you're a nightmare.
23:58But we're good.
24:01And in another lifetime, I'm your mom.
24:03And I'm so sorry, I can't do that right now.
24:04You can't.
24:06And in another lifetime, I'm your mom.
24:12And I'm so sorry, I can't do that right now.
24:18And the police coming for me.
24:23Not for you.
24:24What do you mean?
24:25What do you mean?
24:48I love you, Mum.
25:15I'm sorry, darling, I love you so much.
25:19I love you so much.
25:21It's my darling, you are my baby.
25:23I have to do this.
25:27I cannot let history repeat itself.
25:30I have to tell the truth.
25:32And I cannot have you or Alfie or anyone else take the blame for my mistakes.
25:36I've got your badge.
25:37I'll tell him.
25:38He tried to hurt you.
25:39No, I'm not kind of you involved.
25:41I will say you were down to this the entire time.
25:43You have to stay and make sure that Jasmine stays.
25:46And you cannot say anything about Chrissie.
25:49Why not?
25:50Trust me.
25:52And then maybe after all of this, I'll get to be on.
25:57I love you, baby.
26:00It's me you want.
26:20Let's talk Christmas Day 2007.
26:41Max and Stacey remember that storyline?
26:43It's playing now on BBC Three.
