00:00I
00:30Oi, where are you going?
00:54Work.
00:56Well, I've only been gone a minute.
00:57I thought I'd have a bit of recce in bed.
00:59Don't lie.
01:00You only want me for my delicious body.
01:02It's New Year's Eve.
01:03Come on, everyone else is skyping.
01:05Yeah, well, everyone else hasn't got cows to pen in.
01:08Hang on, is this because you want me tucked up because you're worried about Kev?
01:12No.
01:14He's gone quiet anyway, hasn't he?
01:15So hopefully he's found another ex-husband to terrorise.
01:18I'll tell you what, I'll nip into town and I'll get us a bottle of the good stuff for later.
01:22Right, okay, but I can't go too mad.
01:25I said I dropped my mum and Liam after that murder mystery thing.
01:28God, you're old.
01:28Hey, I'll get us some fireworks and all, yeah?
01:31Oh, well, don't make them too loud, will you?
01:32You know, because I'm getting on a bit.
01:33All right, go on, Dad.
01:35I'll tell you what, you need to cheer up because I'm starting this new year with a bang.
01:37Please tell me that Robert is not dead.
01:47Please tell me that Robert is not dead.
02:01He's not dead.
02:02He's not dead.
02:04Yet.
02:04Good.
02:05Because this whole thing needs a massive rethink.
02:11You can't, you can't faff about what some takes.
02:14Half the village is going to crack it.
02:17Which is why I'm choosing my moment carefully.
02:20Getting Robert alone.
02:22I'm not insane.
02:23Oh, yeah.
02:24Clearly not.
02:25You can hold on for food, yeah?
02:34Duty calls.
02:35Oh, duty.
02:37That's what we're calling it now, is it?
02:39Blowing Robert's the smithereens.
02:42You know, I've been mulling things over in your absence and...
02:45Well, there are other ways that this can end.
02:48No.
02:58No, I can't think of a single one.
03:06Ray?
03:07Hi, sorry, I was out the back.
03:09Ordering a boatload of mozzarella.
03:10You OK?
03:11I'm not going to see you later.
03:12A bit of, um, old Lanzine?
03:14Er, I'm sorry, I've got so much to sort.
03:17And, um, look, you might as well know that I'm moving on.
03:25Eh?
03:26What do you mean?
03:27What, on, on?
03:29Yeah.
03:30I did say that's how it is in my line of work.
03:33Oh.
03:34What is it, er, taxi for Ray before midnight, then?
03:38Yeah?
03:39What?
03:40What?
03:42Double time.
03:43I'm not made of money, Laurel.
03:45Um, but I, er, leave tomorrow.
03:50Right.
03:51OK.
03:51Oh, right.
03:53Er, so is, what, is that it?
03:57So I'm really confused.
03:59Did I do anything?
04:01No, it's not you.
04:02It's not you.
04:03Is this what you want?
04:04What I want, um...
04:05Because if it is, that's absolutely fine.
04:12But, um, it, you know, cards on the table, I, I actually really like you.
04:18A lot.
04:19And I want you to stay here with me.
04:24Together?
04:25Yeah, together.
04:26I mean, I know, you know, it's really big and there's lots to consider, like, you know,
04:31your work and, and your house and everything.
04:33But I, I, you know, I think, I think we're really worth a shot, don't you?
04:40Um, yeah?
04:42Yeah, look, I, I've, I've sprung it on you and I've embarrassed myself, so, um, you don't
04:49have to think now, OK, about it.
04:51You don't have to give me a decision.
04:52Just eat your pizza and, um, but I like you and have a lot.
05:03I have to go back.
05:04I have to try again.
05:05You can't force Bear to leave.
05:07He thinks that him and Ray are like that.
05:09Yeah, well, Ray tried that number on us, remember?
05:11I mean, it doesn't help that, you know, Bear's lost it a bit.
05:15Not a bit, more like a lot.
05:18If we can't get him out by tomorrow, then Ray and Celia take him with us and then that's
05:22it, he's gone.
05:24Why don't we call the police?
05:26Dylan.
05:29The last time cops were mentioned, Ray tried to kill you.
05:32Yeah, and he'll kill you if he catches you.
05:34I know how to be careful.
05:35Yeah, and so do I, by not doing it.
05:38Look, I won't bear free to, all right, but I need you alive.
05:41So please don't.
05:45Okay, fine, I won't, but I still need to go up there, because I told Ray that I'd help
05:49him back up.
05:50Will I see you later?
05:52Yeah.
05:53You'll get a midnight kiss, I promise.
05:55Right, here's to a new year of wedding mayhem and swollen ankles.
06:03And also, here's to piles.
06:05Oh, great, to weddings and piles.
06:07Oh, weddings and piles.
06:09Oh!
06:10Oh!
06:11Oh!
06:12Oh!
06:13That tastes like carbonated dog weed.
06:16Yes, I was alcohol free, did I not mention?
06:18No, you did not.
06:19And just because you're up the duff doesn't mean we have to suffer.
06:20Except you might need a clear head.
06:21I need a teeny favour.
06:22To give our Sarah and your Jacob the best day ever.
06:24Okay.
06:25How much do you want?
06:26It's not money she's after.
06:27Basically, bell rang, alright, there's some legal shenanigans, which means Sarah and Jacob
06:40cannot get hitched without giving notice.
06:4329 days.
06:44We're pros now, aren't we?
06:45Yeah.
06:46And the wedding's due to our what?
06:47To our...
06:48Yes.
06:49What?
06:50Why are we whispering?
06:51Because Jacob and Sarah don't know you dimwit.
06:53So, what do you want me to do?
06:55Slip one of your council cronies a bob or two to sign the papers.
07:01And then wangle as a registrar who doesn't mind working on a year's day.
07:04Oh, yes.
07:05Anything else?
07:07Like resurrecting Elvis Presley?
07:10Well, I might need a small peanut if I'm going to be stuck yo in.
07:16Hi.
07:17Elvis Presley.
07:19I'm going to leave.
07:21Babe, I just need to pop out, get some party poppers.
07:27Erm, you see to Kerry, yeah?
07:32What are you up to?
07:34Nothing.
07:35I, er...
07:36I'm just bored.
07:37I thought I'd come see if you needed a hand with anything.
07:39Oh, it's funny you should say that.
07:41Get in.
07:42I've got something for you.
07:57It's a late Christmas present.
08:06Oi!
08:07Steady.
08:08Messy last time you did that.
08:09Why do you still have that?
08:11Erm, it's insurance.
08:12Just funny enough, April, there was a time when I didn't trust you.
08:17There's nothing like a murder weapon to ease the paranoia.
08:20I don't want it.
08:21What?
08:22Not even the sheets and towels from the clean-up?
08:24No, not any of it!
08:25Well, neither do I.
08:27So I figured we could bury it in 2025 and never mention it again.
08:33And then we could toddle off, make a fresh start.
08:37Agreed?
08:39I guess.
08:42Good.
08:43Well, lucky I've got a spade in the back, innit?
08:46Round two.
08:47Er, I think it's round fifty-two by now.
08:49Look.
08:50Mrs Gobby got way too gobby for her own good the other day.
08:52Me?
08:53No, Vanessa, me!
08:54This is me apologising.
08:55Oh, well.
08:56Tar for flagging that up.
08:57Bye then.
08:58The test results are back.
08:59Bad.
09:00No good.
09:01There's no dodgy rogue genetics going on. Yay!
09:02And you were right.
09:03I had my big fat irrational head on.
09:05I'm sorry.
09:06I just wanted piece of mind.
09:08And now you've got it.
09:09Came up smelling of roses yet again.
09:22And now you've got it.
09:24Came up smelling of roses yet again.
09:26I mean.
09:28George, as a woman, was a monster, sore bezpie.
09:30Yet again.
09:32Excuse me, I thought you'd just want to know the baby was okay.
09:34I do. For Sarah.
09:37This result doesn't change the lies you're telling about Carrie and her kid.
09:40And before you start, again, I didn't send that stupid note.
09:46Obviously someone else knows your sordid little secret.
09:48Have you heard yourself? So sanctimonious.
09:51You make Claudette look rock and roll.
09:53I won't apologise for having morals.
09:55No, not when it suits.
09:57Well, how about you stop nebbing into my life and get one of your own?
10:01Because sad, bitter, lonely old woman, not strong luck for you, Vanessa.
10:27Surely it's deep enough by now.
10:41What, you want so much mud to dig it up?
10:42What is this?
11:08Breen, why have you brought an empty bag? What is going on?
11:22I'm sorry, April.
11:25But it's over.
11:26I'm sorry, April.
11:53So that's for me. You're going to put me in there, are you?
12:14Mum, it's tired of you.
12:16You know, poking around, always asking questions.
12:19I don't know what you mean.
12:21You can't come away with us.
12:23You know too much. We need to set up clean.
12:26You can.
12:27You're like a bad hangover.
12:29Who's ready to run your mouth.
12:31No, no.
12:32Because if you go away, I promise that I will never say a word again.
12:36That's not how Mum wants it.
12:38Look, if I disappear, then the first thing that Dad and Rona will do is go to the police and then that'll be worse for you.
12:44Yeah, but you've run away before. You've just done it again.
12:48They'll never buy it.
12:49April, this was always a possibility.
12:52No, no, you can't. Please.
12:56No, no, no. Don't start crying.
12:57No, stop bawling. Shut up.
12:59You okay, hon?
13:14It didn't detonate, did it?
13:16Well, you know what that is, don't you?
13:19That bomb not going off.
13:23That's a sign.
13:24You know why?
13:25Because me and you, what?
13:28Our futures are intertwined.
13:31What?
13:32Because first I kill Robert and then I kill you.
13:35Well, you say that, but death.
13:38Messy, isn't it?
13:44Right, just be brutally honest with me, just for a minute.
13:49What is it that you actually want?
13:51Aaron, obviously.
13:52Ding, ding.
13:53Correct answer.
13:54Now, going by that logic, do you really think that killing Robert is the sort of thing that's
14:00going to make Aaron think, oh, actually, do you know what?
14:03I am banging at this guy after all.
14:04I can work on that.
14:05No, you really can't.
14:06I mean, it's obvious, isn't it?
14:14I run off with Robert, you run off with Aaron, we both get what we want, everybody lives happily
14:21ever after, and nobody has to die.
14:25Simple.
14:26Yeah.
14:27It is, isn't it?
14:29I mean, admit it.
14:31You killing that Nate character, wasn't you?
14:35Really a bit of you, was it?
14:36I mean, imagine, imagine having two more corpses on your hands.
14:45I'm not sure you'd ever sleep again at night.
14:51Aw.
14:52I didn't know Van Gogh was invited.
14:55Oh.
14:57Happy New Year.
15:01We did say dirt and the cheat.
15:04Great.
15:04What about the wedding balance?
15:05Have we checked them?
15:05Or does it say congratulations on your wedding?
15:10So, Pollard.
15:12Please tell me my blood pressure is not soaring for nothing.
15:14Uh, alas, I fail to be as useless as Mac.
15:22Papers forged, registrar booked.
15:25Come here, you crafty old dog.
15:27Well, I'm snogging fellas already.
15:30Not even midnight yet.
15:32Large Merlot, please.
15:33We are, er, just warming up for Sarah and Jacob's big I-do's tomorrow.
15:40But, shh, cos it's a secret.
15:44Oh, charity loves those.
15:46Tell them, Tracey.
15:48Oh, come together.
15:50Can you just try and stop me?
15:51Oh.
15:51Oh.
15:51Oh.
15:52Oh.
15:52Oh.
15:52Oh.
15:53Oh.
15:53Oh.
15:53Oh.
15:54Oh.
15:55Oh.
15:56Oh.
15:57Oh.
15:58Oh.
15:59Oh.
16:00Oh.
16:01Oh.
16:02Oh.
16:03Oh.
16:04Oh.
16:05Oh.
16:06Oh.
16:18Oh.
16:20Oh.
16:21Oh.
16:22No, no, no, don't do this.
16:23Not for her.
16:25I have to.
16:27If Celia wants this, then where is she?
16:29Why is she making you do it?
16:32It's the way it is.
16:33She made you her, Dylan.
16:35I know you didn't want to.
16:38You're glad you didn't die.
16:39You would have hated yourself for it.
16:41And you know that Celia is wrong, but you're trapped and you can't get out.
16:46You need to be quiet.
16:48If Celia really loved you, then she wouldn't ask you to do the things that she does.
16:53No, no mum would.
16:55Not real mum.
16:56Stop talking.
16:58But you're not like her, you're not.
17:01I just, I want my dad, please.
17:02I need my dad, please.
17:03Shut it!
17:04You have to get him abroad.
17:10Out of the country.
17:12Easy peasy.
17:13I've got a mate with a lawyer who owes me a favour.
17:15Next.
17:16Aaron cannot see him ever again.
17:22Not even a Christmas card.
17:23Robert's working in the farm.
17:24Top barn.
17:25Top barn.
17:27Excellent.
17:28Do you know where Aaron is?
17:30Do you know where Aaron is?
17:32Always.
17:33Bang in.
17:34So that is me and Robert.
17:36Off to the Costa del Sol.
17:39Roger the full English breakfast off one of them little plastic menus with a photo of the
17:44food on it.
17:45Call your mate.
17:46Yeah?
17:48Yeah?
17:49Get Robert.
17:50Now.
17:51Oh mate.

18:44Oh.

18:46You two got party plans?
18:47What limping about to do a leap?
18:48You know.
18:49Swing by hours.

18:53Right yeah maybe I'll see what April's up for.

19:21Cheers.
19:39Do you think that's it, though? Do you think he's gone for good?
19:53Crazy as he is, he's not daft.
19:55Police are on his tail. He's legged it. He's gone.
19:59Okay.
20:00Well, then I'll pour us another.

20:33Oh.
20:37The ball's in your court.
20:53What?
20:54What about Celia?
20:56I don't know.
20:58Well...

21:00I know.
21:01She'll kill us.
21:03So run.
21:04What? Where?
21:05Anywhere.
21:08Stay away.
21:10I can't do this.
21:12Not anymore.
21:13I want out.
21:14I want a...
21:15I want a different life.
21:17Yeah.
21:18Listen.
21:19I will deal with Celia.
21:21You disappear.
