00:30Oh. Last night was a bad idea. Yeah, I know. Really bad hangover's already knocking at the door. Knocking? Smashing the doors in. Well, I mean, it could be worse. At least you didn't offer to take your mum and Liam to that place in Manchester, what is it? Weatherfield. That murder mystery. Oh yeah, you did. Well, yeah, but it could actually be worse though, couldn't it? I could be doing the murder mystery thing. I mean, I can't kick off at least.
00:59Liam, it was a Christmas present. Missing Sarah's wedding so that she can dress up like Sherlock. Oh, it's something to look forward to though, innit? Nothing like a wedding with an hangover. Yeah. Love is in the air. Is that what it is? Huh. Could there be a more inappropriate present? Murder mystery?
01:29Well, we'll be here as we mean to go on. Is that it? Okay. Yeah? Yeah.
01:41Someone slept well. Sorry if I kept you awake. Your mum?
01:47No, you really don't want to know. Hmm. Well, I do. If it's something I can help with. Do you want to talk about it?
02:02Well, um... I'm a coward. And I hate myself for it. And I'm... I'm sick of hating myself.
02:14Hey, it's okay. Where's this come from? What's this? Look, what... whatever you've done...
02:20Whatever I've done. Um... Yeah.
02:30I don't want to pressurise you or anything, but, um...
02:34Today you were supposed to be leaving.
02:39Or maybe... staying?
02:42That decision has been made.
02:45I'm not going anywhere.
02:50Well, I just think that this is the perfect chance to show everybody that our marriage is not a sham.
02:56But it is a sham.
02:58Yes. And if the authorities get wind of that, we're gonna have to prove otherwise, aren't we?
03:02And I've got the perfect idea. Up my sleeve.
03:03Cue a million alarm bells.
03:06Well, we can't look a gift horse in the mouth.
03:08Mm-hmm.
03:10See ya. See ya.
03:12Oh! Oh! Stop!
03:14Hey.
03:16Where are you going?
03:18Nowhere special. Just going for a little hike.
03:22You can't.
03:24We can't?
03:25No.
03:27Why are you all dressed up?
03:29I'm not.
03:31He is. Yeah, he definitely is.
03:33Right, why are you acting really weird?
03:34Like, even more weird than normal.
03:36And why can't we go out?
03:38You two have gone a bit hard on the sherry already.
03:40Er, okay, okay, okay.
03:42So...
03:44There's gonna be a small soiree in the pub for later.
03:48Yeah, and a formal affair, hence the, er, suit.
03:52And Charity wanted to talk to you before it all kicks off.
03:56Right, so why didn't she tell me?
03:58Because I'm telling you now.
03:59So, off you pop, see you later, text you in a bit.
04:03Okay, bye.
04:05Right, bye.
04:07See you in a bit, then.
04:11Seriously?
04:13Is somebody gonna tell me what's going on?
04:14Happy New Year.
04:31She didn't come home last night.
04:32What?
04:34Her bed's not been slept in.
04:36Well, have you tried calling her?
04:37She's not answering.
04:39Look, it was New Year's Eve.
04:40Maybe she stayed out with Dylan.
04:41No, no, I called Paddy.
04:42Dylan came home last night alone.
04:44I know you're gonna tell me not to worry.
04:46I'm not gonna tell you anything.
04:47We're ready to drop in the debt.
04:48We need to be a catch, Rona.
04:54Wanna phone a friend?
04:55How are you even here?
05:01Where there's a will.
05:04Aaron will be home soon.
05:05No.
05:07No.
05:09Right now, he'll be on his way to Manchester.
05:11Always one step ahead.
05:17You must know that by now.
05:19So we both know he's probably gonna be gone for quite a while.
05:26What do you want?
05:28I've been away for a long time.
05:31During which I had time to think.
05:35I was filled with this rage that would not go away, so...
05:41I told myself.
05:43All Rose led back to Aaron.
05:46That I...
05:48I was the victim here.
05:50You?
05:53You killed Nate.
05:55You nearly killed Chas.
05:56You kidnapped Mac.
05:58You pulled Aaron off a cliff.
06:00Because I thought he betrayed me.
06:02But when I started to work things out, I realised...
06:06Aaron is just as much a victim as I am.
06:10A victim of you.
06:12I'm thinking central.
06:13Central.
06:14Try it.
06:15Just try it.
06:16Try it.
06:17No.
06:18I've changed my mind.
06:20Yes, perfect.
06:21Love it.
06:22Girls!
06:26What do you think?
06:28I thought you were gonna tell me someone had died.
06:30No, this isn't a funeral.
06:34Just a wedding.
06:36Oh, my God, are you serious?
06:39Wait, all this is for me?
06:41Yeah, that's what you wanted, isn't it?
06:43A winter wedding.
06:45I don't know what to say.
06:47I can't believe it.
06:49I wasn't sure what you'd think at first.
06:51No, this is the best thing ever.
06:53Brave.
06:55Wait, hang on though.
06:56Is this actually real?
06:57I mean, we're gonna be properly married, like, legally.
07:00Okay, well, let's just say Eric Pollard may have pulled off a few strings.
07:03And maybe don't ask any more questions.
07:06I still can't believe it.
07:08Thank you, guys.
07:09You're welcome!
07:10You've got your own little Christmas movie.
07:12You're getting married!
07:13You're not getting married!
07:14You're not getting married!
07:15Oh, watch the baby!
07:16Oh, oh, oh!
07:17Oh, oh, oh!
07:22I know you said you weren't hungry, but...
07:25Thanks.
07:29Oh, we've got a visitor.
07:31I'm not here.
07:32Oh!
07:33Ray?
07:34Look, is Marlon?
07:35Hi.
07:40Hi.
07:41Is Arthur in?
07:42Er, no.
07:43I just need to know if you've seen April.
07:44Er, well, he was at Friends in Hotton last night, so probably not.
07:47She didn't come home last night, Laurel.
07:49Have you tried her other friends?
07:50I don't know who her other friends are anymore.
07:52Look, I know the first and see...
07:53If you hear anything, I'll see you.
07:55Well, I'll call you straight away.
07:56Thanks, Marlon.
07:57Of course.
08:02What was all that about?
08:03Oh, nothing.
08:06It wasn't even your mum!
08:08But your reaction...
08:10Are you that worried that she's gonna find out where you are?
08:14Well, I mean, it sounds weird.
08:16Well, no, no.
08:17It sounds crazy.
08:18Laurel, it's...
08:19Look, I know she's got a problem with me, alright?
08:21It's not you.
08:22She has to understand that you are a grown man capable of making choices,
08:27even if she doesn't like them.
08:29Yeah, I get what you're saying.
08:32Ray.
08:33Nothing is gonna change until you finally stand up to her, once and for all.
08:43Hmm.
08:44I'll always love him.
08:46But you have to realise that sometimes, love comes at a cost.
08:51I think he's worked that out.
08:53You have no idea what I've been through since I've been gone.
08:56You?
08:57Can you even hear yourself?
08:59Sleeping on the streets.
09:01Derelict old buildings freezing to death.
09:03I've been in hell and it was you, you, who put me there.
09:06You put yourself there, you freak.
09:10You were married to another man in prison and yet still, you thought you could come back here and take mine at me.
09:15Who does that?
09:16How do you know about Kev?
09:18Let's just say our paths have crossed.
09:21Well that is a very angry man but I was able to harness that anger, put it to good use.
09:27What are you saying?
09:29Oh come on.
09:30I thought you would have worked it out by now, join the dots.
09:33He was you.
09:35Give that man a prize.
09:37The gunshots, all of it.
09:38He was...
09:39And everything that comes next.
09:42Next?
09:45So what are you gonna...
09:47You're gonna shoot me and then somehow blame it on him?
09:50That's your brilliant plan?
09:51No.
09:52No.
09:53My...
09:55...brilliant plan...
09:57...started the moment you woke up this morning.
10:00That was the headache Robert.
10:03Oh.
10:26Hi, morning Bailey.
10:27Yeah, it's Belle from Takeabout.
10:29I just wanted to call to let you know that everything is set for your big day.
10:33Yep.
10:34Yeah, the venue know the Dementia Choir's gonna get there early to rehearse.
10:36You're all good.
10:38Aww.
10:39Well I hope you and Debbie have the best day ever.
10:42Oh.
10:43Thing is with these winter weddings, they're all romantic and that but they're also sleeping,
10:47freezing.
10:48Oh, thanks.
10:49Oh, romance, overrated.
10:50Uh, Aaron and Robert should be here by now, shouldn't they?
10:54Should I go and get him?
10:56Well I think it's probably a bit late.
10:57The Lamb's arrived to the slaughter.
10:59Wow.
11:00Aww, that's really sweet.
11:02No, no, no.
11:03Uh, Belle, I'm a massive fan of marriage, you know that.
11:06One dress to fight your corner for the rest of your life.
11:07What more do you want?
11:10Do you want a spade so you can dig a bigger hole?
11:13Is Mario running late?
11:15Uh, farm emergency.
11:16She'll be here as soon as you can.
11:19Uh, I've, I've, I've taken.
11:27Oh my God.
11:30All this.
11:35Mr. Gallagher, this is your wedding day.
11:41I'm turning back now.
11:43Come on.
11:46Come on.
11:47Come on.
11:56Oh my goodness, she's wearing white.
11:59I don't believe it.
12:02Maybe we should all go inside, eh?
12:05You look really pretty.
12:07Yeah, you have to say that.
12:08Have you seen your competition?
12:10What, Kerry?
12:12Are you kidding?
12:13There's no contest.
12:15Child's held to go home and get changed.
12:16No, it's fine.
12:17I'm not going to let anything ruin today.
12:25I am so happy for you, Sarah.
12:28I'm happy for us all.
12:30Aww.
12:32Now, you've obviously got a few questions, but...
12:38...the one you should really be asking yourself is...
12:41...when did I last get the boiler checked out?
12:43What?
12:45Always important to make sure there's enough oxygen in a room.
12:48I believe they call it the invisible killer.
12:58Hey, hey!
13:01Sit down, Robert.
13:18Why are you ignoring my calls again?
13:31My battery died.
13:32I didn't have a charger.
13:34Come on.
13:35You can be a bit more creative than that, surely.
13:39I am hoping you are here to tell me it is done.
13:44So, what happened?
13:45Don't care.
13:46Don't care what happened, how it happened.
13:49We are leaving today.
13:51All loose ends need tying up.
13:53Just need to know that it's done.
13:56Yeah.
13:57But the thing is...
13:58Oh, is she dead?
13:59If you just let me...
14:00Is April dead?
14:04Um...
14:06No.
14:09No?
14:12That is not the answer.
14:15Explain to me, slowly, how that young girl, that tiny little girl managed to escape.
14:24She didn't escape.
14:27I let her go.
14:31Say that again.
14:35I made the decision.
14:36I chose not to kill her.
14:37Oh!
14:38Oh!
14:39Oh!
14:40Oh!
14:41Oh!
14:42Oh!
14:43Oh!
14:44Oh!
14:45Oh!
14:46Oh!
14:48Oh!
14:49Oh!
14:51Oh!
14:52Oh!
14:53Now get out.
14:54Before I do something else, I won't regret.
14:56I'm not playing your game.
15:09Oh, you will.
15:12Because you care too much about the other players.
15:14Who?
15:17Oh, don't worry.
15:19Victoria and Harry, they will be absolutely fine.
15:23They're not even here.
15:24They went away.
15:26They'll be back.
15:28Sooner than you think.
15:30If I was a betting man, I'd say...
15:32Tomorrow.
15:34What have you done?
15:35Only what I had to.
15:38You wouldn't hurt them?
15:40I'm not a psychopath.
15:41Of course I wouldn't hurt them.
15:43As long as everything plays out the way it's supposed to.
15:46So you...
15:48...will do exactly what I tell you.
15:49Because right now, Robert...
15:51...their lives are in your hands.
15:52Jacob, do you promise to love, respect, comfort and protect Sarah?
16:05And to share with her all that you are and all that is yet to be?
16:09I do.
16:11Sarah, do you promise to love, respect, comfort and protect Jacob?
16:16And to share with him all that you are and all that is yet to be?
16:20I do.
16:21Who has the rings?
16:23Sorry, can you just...
16:24...stop a minute?
16:26Erm...
16:27...I've erm...
16:29...I've written something myself.
16:31Like my own vows.
16:33Can I say them now?
16:35Of course.
16:40Sarah...
16:42...you are my everything.
16:45You're my first thought when I wake up in the morning.
16:48You're my last thought at night.
16:51And you're everything in between.
16:54Wherever life takes us, I promise to be there.
16:57To hold your hand.
16:59To always care.
17:00To always care.
17:02Oh.
17:03You know, it's really doing wonderful things now, isn't it?
17:05You can awe him.
17:08Carry on.
17:10You know what?
17:11I er...
17:12I need to say it properly.
17:14What I really feel.
17:17You know I love you.
17:18And you know my life is better just having you in it.
17:22I can't believe I'm actually going to be a subject.
17:25Which is pretty scary, but...
17:28...it's not as scary as being a dingle.
17:30Yeah.
17:31Dodged a bullet there.
17:33You won't dodge your mole.
17:36Go on.
17:39We're starting a family.
17:41And pretty soon two becomes three.
17:44And I don't know what our future looks like, but I promise you...
17:47...that I will be there every step of the way.
17:50You're my best friend.
17:52And I promise that I'll never let you down.
17:54Yeah!
17:57Yeah!
18:06Yesterday...
18:08...when you told me she was out shopping, you already knew she was missing, didn't you?
18:12Look, Dylan, if...
18:13...if you know something that you're not telling us...
18:14I don't!
18:15I know that you care about her, but if there's anything you know...
18:18...no matter how small...
18:19Yeah, it still might help.
18:20Help her.
18:21Listen to me.
18:22What happened to you, Ray in the car?
18:23I get that you're probably scared...
18:25...but if she's in trouble, in danger, you need to tell us!
18:30She was supposed to be moving away.
18:32What?
18:33With Ray and Celia.
18:36It's what I got told anyway.
18:38This is what they do.
18:39As soon as things start getting too hot, you know, eyes are on them or whatever...
18:42...they pack up and move on.
18:44But everyone can't have agreed to that.
18:45She must have a gun pointed to her head.
18:47No, Marlon.
18:49It's pointed at yours.
18:51And yours, the whole family.
18:52Ivy, Leo, Mary...
18:53Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
18:54Sorry.
18:55Just, just.
18:56Slow down.
18:58She's agreed to go with them because she's protecting you all.
19:01Protecting us?
19:04You don't get it, do you?
19:06The only reason Ray stopped you paying all that money is because of April.
19:11Her moving away is the only way to make it all stop.
19:13There's no point fighting it.
19:18You can't win.
19:23Blaming Kev.
19:29The police.
19:30How?
19:31How?
19:32How?
19:33Well, how will they think he's involved?
19:38Because they'll find his DNA in him.
19:40Not much, but enough.
19:41Maybe a stray hair or something.
19:44A speck of blood.
19:51Hilarious.
19:54Forgiveness is love.
19:56Never heard that.
19:58He needs to realise he'll let you get inside his head, let you damage him, brainwash him all over again.
20:06It might be difficult at first.
20:09What with you gone?
20:11He'll tell himself he needs to grieve you.
20:14All addicts can think about is their next fix.
20:18He's an addict?
20:20He thinks he needs you.
20:22I'm gonna show him he doesn't.
20:24I should be thanking you, really.
20:29Because your death is what's gonna bring me and Aaron back together.
20:35I'm delighted to announce that from this day forward, you are now husband and wife.
20:40You may kiss the bride, if you want to.
20:43I want to.
20:44I've found the love now.
20:47I've found the love now.
20:51Yeah!
20:53Well, let's get that.
20:54We've already started!
21:01No, no, no, no, no, no.
21:03No need to apologise.
21:04I apologise.
21:05You forgot to send the invitation.
21:06Get out!
21:07Have they got the cake yet?
21:08Do you like a slice of cake?
21:09This is a private party!
21:11Oh, relax, Charity.
21:13Practically family, aren't I?
21:14You need to stop stressing.
21:15Can't be good for you.
21:17Order babies.
21:18Cheers.
21:20Erm, sorry.
21:21Sorry, sorry.
21:22Erm, before this party really gets started,
21:25I'd just like to say a few words.
21:27Isn't love amazing?
21:43She starts talking about Susie, someone take the mic.
21:47Been here, seeing so many happy people.
21:51Happy couples.
21:52All here for Sarah and Jacob's gorgeous wedding day.
21:58It totally is amazing.
22:02There is so much love in this room.
22:07And it's all down to one special person.
22:13Charity.
22:15She makes dreams come true.
22:19Do you write this for her?
22:21She always goes that extra mile for the people she cares about, doesn't she?
22:26Hmm?
22:28Always puts them first.
22:30Family is everything.
22:34But now I think we should raise a glass and make a toast to the happy couple,
22:41wishing them all the luck and happiness in the world.
22:45Because they deserve it.
22:48To Sarah and Jacob.
22:51Sarah and Jacob!
22:52Sarah and Jacob!
23:12Ta-da!
23:17You don't need that.
23:19Listen, whatever you're here for.
23:20I'm here.
23:21I'll give it to John.
23:25Oi!
23:27What the hell was that?
23:29Oh!
23:30Everyone in there thinking you're some sort of saint.
23:33Makes me want to throw up.
23:35You promised you'd keep your comp short?
23:37No.
23:38No secret.
23:39Oh!
23:40Stop pretending you didn't send that note!
23:42How many times?
23:44This is Sarah's big day, okay?
23:46And you're not ruining it by turning it into some kind of massive car crash.
23:50You're the one at the wheel, Charity.
23:52And I've seen you looking at him.
23:54I've seen the way you're looking at him.
23:56Mac!
23:58Because maybe I feel a little bit sorry for him.
24:00No, no, you know what? I don't feel sorry for him.
24:02I actually pity him.
24:03I'm warning you, Vanessa.
24:05You open your cup one more time.
24:06Don't you dare threaten me, Charity.
24:08I've told you.
24:09I'm not going to say anything.
24:10But I'm not thinking of you.
24:11I am thinking of Sarah.
24:13And everyone else whose life saint Charity could ruin.
24:26She won't say anything.
24:28She could be talking to the police right now.
24:30No.
24:31I've told her.
24:32If she talks, we put her family down one by one.
24:34Oh!
24:35Everything is on the line here.
24:36How can you not get that through your thick skull?
24:40She's just a kid, Mum.
24:41Yeah.
24:42A kid that could bring everything crashing down on us.
24:44Do you want to go to prison?
24:46No.
24:47No, of course not.
24:48You wouldn't last a second.
24:50Look at me.
24:52Look at me.
24:55You will find her.
24:56You will get the job done.
24:57Do you understand me?
24:58I don't know where she is.
25:00Just find her.
25:02Solve this problem for us.
25:04I will take care of her family.
25:06You don't need to do that.
25:07Oh, Ray.
25:09When the hunted is in the noose, you don't release it.
25:11You pull it tighter.
25:16Do not come back here until it is done.
25:18Do you understand me?
25:20I want to look forward to a funeral.
25:21It's either hers or yours.
25:27No.
25:29What did you say to me?
25:32Boy.
25:34Get out of my way.
25:38You're not going anywhere.
25:40This is some sort of sick trap.
25:42No.
25:43Listen.
25:44That kid is not right in the head.
25:45Some of the stuff that he was saying.
25:46Like what?
25:47I don't know.
25:48Mad stuff.
25:49Like people had to pay that there needed to be consequences.
25:52I mean, I don't...
25:53I don't think he knew what he was saying half the time.
25:56Where's John now?
25:58What?
25:59He's here.
26:00You're the only one that can stop him.
26:01From what?
26:02From killing Robert.
26:03He tried to blow his car up yesterday.
26:05God knows what he'll do next.
26:14Oh.
26:15This.
26:16This is Laurel.
26:17That dull, dried up girlfriend of yours.
26:20Don't call her now.
26:21She doesn't love you.
26:22How could anyone love you?
26:23Oh, and just so you know.
26:25Ted.
26:26I mean Bear.
26:28That's not happening either.
26:30Oh, I see what this is.
26:31Your daddy issues are resurfacing, aren't they?
26:34He doesn't need to die.
26:36They say all roads lead back to childhood.
26:38And well, with your childhood, it's easy to see why you're so damaged.
26:43So fragile.
26:45Your poor grandad had to take you in because nobody else wanted you.
26:48Did they?
26:50That must sting.
26:51Even now.
26:53Your teenage mummy got knocked up by some clown.
26:56They couldn't get rid of you quick enough.
26:58Lucky grandad was there.
27:00Or you could have ended up in a foam box.
27:02Or worse, a bag in the river.
27:05Why are you even saying this?
27:07Because every now and then you need to be reminded of what I've done for you.
27:11The sacrifices I have made.
27:13Well, say what you want.
27:15But Bear is not going to die.
27:17No, you're right.
27:18He is not going to die.
27:20Because he is already dead.
27:26I know.
27:27You'd like me to tell you it was painless.
27:30But...
27:31It wasn't.
27:33It was slow.
27:34And I watched him gasping for breath as he begged me to help him.
27:42You see?
27:44At least one of us still has the stomach for this game.
27:47Are you crying?
27:48Are you...
27:49Are you that spineless?
27:50Oh, you are still that dirty little boy who used to pee his pants whenever he got scared.
28:02Whenever the big boys would pick on him.
28:04That little boy that would hide under his covers at night so the monsters couldn't gobble him up.
28:08Well, there's nowhere to hide now, is there, my boy?
28:13And my teeth.
28:14They are sharper than any monsters.
28:31Oh, Sarah.
28:33Congratulations.
28:34Oh, you look so gorgeous.
28:36I'm so sorry I missed the ceremony.
28:38No, don't worry.
28:39It's fine.
28:40You're here for the best bit, anyway.
28:41Aww.
28:42Where's Grumpy?
28:43Just over there.
28:45Did I mention that I love you so much?
28:48Did I mention how drunk you are, babe?
28:51It's fine.
28:52I love you more when I'm drunk.
28:57What do you think you're paying out marrying my ex?
29:03Hey, for a second I thought you were being serious.
29:05Well, come on, Jakey.
29:06Where are we being right?
29:07Me and Sarah were the last ones to know.
29:10I still can't believe this actually happened.
29:12Aww.
29:13Honestly, mate, I'm glad it has.
29:15Seriously, you two are made for each other.
29:17Aww, smiley to me at this time, Eric.
29:18How many photos is that?
29:19Well, enough to make people believe that this is our own wedding.
29:32You know, in case any important people start asking questions.
29:34Yeah, I'm not sure how convincing that's going to be.
29:38Well, it better be.
29:39I've turned up for somebody else's wedding dressed in white.
29:42I feel like a right muppet.
29:43Er, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
29:46A very fetching muppet.
29:48Sam?
29:49I think it's time.
29:50Don't for what?
29:51On the dingle wallet!
29:54No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
29:59I've got something much better to do.
30:02Erm, how about everybody?
30:05The drinks are on me!
30:06Nice one, Eric.
30:07Honestly, Grandad, thank you, but you don't need to.
30:09Ah, but I want to.
30:10It's not every day that my grandson, my favourite grandson, gets married.
30:23Uh-oh.
30:24This isn't going to end well.
30:34Go on.
30:36Go to sleep.
30:45Get away from him now.
30:46You're not meant to be it.
30:48I said, get away from him now!
30:55My God.
30:56You need to put that down.
30:57Listen to me, whatever you've done to him.
31:00You're not calling the shots anymore, Aaron.
31:04I am.
31:06Okay, all right, okay?
31:11I'll do whatever you say.
31:13Just please, John, please.
31:15Just help him.
31:17Somebody needs to be at that farm right now.
31:32I absolutely understand.
31:33But I can assure you our investigation is exactly where it needs to be.
31:37What does that even mean?
31:38Please, Mr Dingle, you cannot take matters into your own hands.
31:41Are you actually serious?
31:42You have to trust us to handle this.
31:44We appreciate the gravity of the situation, we do.
31:48But if you jeopardise the investigation now, it may affect proceedings if this does go to court.
31:52You've just got to allow us to do our job.
31:54Happy New Year.
31:55Happy New Year.
31:56Happy New Year.
31:57Happy New Year.
31:58Thank God it's over.
31:59Not to be seen again for another 12 months.
32:00Oh, well, I know this woman who puts them out in October, so that's, like, ten months.
32:10What that is, Lewis, is insane and I don't like people.
32:13Right, erm, you've got these in the stock room and there's a brand of bonus in it for you.
32:16Oh, yay!
32:29No!
32:30No, you really can't be here!
32:31I didn't see a close sign.
32:32Well, we're close to you. I'm calling the police.
32:34Look, I just... I just need to speak to him.
32:37No, you really don't!
32:40He needs to know the truth and he needs to know it from me.
32:43Oh, and you're gonna stick around, are you? Play dad?
32:46No, it's just got... it's got nothing to do with you. It's between me and him.
32:50You drop that bombshell and his whole world blows up on him!
32:54What about our agreement?
32:58Okay.
33:00Okay, you have a choice to make.
33:02You tell him what you are to him, but then you have to stay around and step up,
33:06even if it means doing more prison time.
33:08Or you leave right now, with him none the wiser, and you never come back.
33:13I was scared I'd never see you again.
33:16It'd be so easy to forget all the pain you caused me, but...
33:21I just can't.
33:22You tried to kill me.
33:23All the time I was away, all I felt was anger, resentment towards you, but...
33:28Then I realised that you're a victim too.
33:29Because he got inside your head, poisoned your brain.
33:31Hmm.
33:32Hmm.
33:33It's Vic.
33:34It's Vic.
33:35Staying somewhere different tonight, but...
33:36It's Vic.
33:37They're staying somewhere different tonight, but they'll be home tomorrow.
33:38They'll be home tomorrow.
33:40It's Vic.
33:41It's Vic.
33:42It's Vic.
33:43They're staying somewhere different tonight, but they'll be home tomorrow.
33:44Bombscare.
33:45The hotel.
33:46You said you wouldn't hurt them.
33:47I wouldn't have hurt them.
33:48I wouldn't hurt them, but they'd be
34:13You said you wouldn't hurt them.
34:15I wouldn't harm a single hair on their heads.
34:18Why would I?
34:20When I want them to come to France with us.
34:28Er, er, right.
34:30Don't bite my head off, but you've had enough.
34:33I will tell you when I've had enough.
34:35Bang on. Absolutely bang on.
34:37Live life well. That's the best revenge.
34:40For what?
34:43I don't know. I don't know.
34:45Sounds good though, doesn't it?
34:47Like a deep-fried curry pie covered in gravy.
35:07I will never forget today.
35:09I don't want it to end.
35:11So, worked out where you're going for your honeymoon?
35:15Well, we can't decide between the Maldives or Seychelles.
35:19Hey, Whitby's nice this time of year.
35:21Proper not to treat a lady, mate.
35:23Seriously, I'm gonna start to this guy.
35:25Yeah.
35:31I've had enough.
35:33Tomorrow, with the help of a friend, the four of us will be taking a boat from West Kirby over to Ireland.
35:47From there, we'll be taking another boat to France.
35:51I know, I know, I've missed out on a bit of detail and...
35:55...as we all know, the devil is always in the detail.
35:57John...
35:59Yeah, yeah, yeah. You've obviously got a lot of questions, but...
36:01...all you really need to know is...
36:05...this is just about you getting better.
36:07Better?
36:09You're not well, Aaron.
36:13And you don't even know it.
36:15You really think he'll go with you?
36:17You really think he has a choice.
36:19So what, you're gonna kill him, and then we're gonna run away together?
36:23Is that really what you're thinking?
36:25He's always lied to you, Aaron, all the time you were together.
36:29Even when he got out of prison, it didn't stop.
36:31He was married and chose not to tell you that.
36:35There's nothing he doesn't know about me.
36:37He didn't come back because he loves you.
36:41He came back because he hates the fact your life has moved on without him.
36:47I came back...
36:51...because...
36:53...I am your life, Aaron.
36:55You just need to realise that.
36:59Well, if you do put these up in October, they'll be going up the same time as your Halloween decorations.
37:05That's a proper horror story.
37:07Yeah.
37:08Oh, very cute.
37:10So, who are you talking to?
37:12Hmm?
37:13Nobody.
37:14It was a call from a customer.
37:16Sound like you're arguing.
37:18Just a difference of opinion.
37:20Sometimes a customer isn't always right.
37:22Like Jay, he's never right.
37:23Never.
37:24We never let him know that.
37:26No, no, no.
37:27There we go.
37:28HMS News.
37:29Oh, beautiful.
37:30Has just dropped her anchor.
37:33Thank you, Mark.
37:34For everything.
37:35I couldn't have done it without you.
37:36It's okay.
37:37I'm a big strong boy.
37:38I'm absolutely fine.
37:39I'm not even drunk.
37:40I should probably stay there all night now.
37:41I'll go get her a proper pillow.
37:42And then I'll get her some water.
37:43Do you know what we could do?
37:44We could do some shots.
37:45No!
37:46I used to hate you.
37:47But I don't anymore.
37:48I used to hate you.
37:49But I don't anymore.
37:50Oh, are you coming on to me, Vanessa?
37:51Because I am not a lesbian.
37:52No.
37:53No.
37:54No.
37:55No.
37:56I did.
37:57And I'm sorry.
37:58But I'm sorry.
37:59But I don't anymore.
38:00It's okay.
38:01It's okay.
38:02I'm a big strong boy.
38:03I'm absolutely fine.
38:04I'm not even drunk.
38:05She'll probably stay there all night now.
38:06I'll go get her a proper pillow.
38:07And then I'll get her some water.
38:08Do you know what we could do?
38:09We could do some shots.
38:10No!
38:11I used to hate you.
38:14But I don't anymore.
38:16Oh, are you coming on to me, Vanessa?
38:19Because I am not a lesbian.
38:21No.
38:22No.
38:23I did.
38:24And I'm sorry.
38:25But when you and Char is here, I was jealous.
38:29I was jealous.
38:30Do you know what we need?
38:33We need a kebab shop.
38:36We need a kebab shop here.
38:37Because I could murder a daughter kebab right now.
38:41I did.
38:42And now I know, Mackie, you are a good person.
38:48You are.
38:49Yeah.
38:50You're a good man.
38:51I'm a good man.
38:52Yeah.
38:53Yep.
38:54Not enough people know that.
38:56What is...
38:57Can you scoot so long?
38:59What...
39:00What is...
39:02Oh, James.
39:04I might be a good man, but I'm a terrible father.
39:08No.
39:10Yes.
39:11My boy.
39:13My beautiful boy.
39:14I've done another Christmas without him and he doesn't even know who I am.
39:17No.
39:18It's...
39:19It's not fair.
39:21Right.
39:22I think it's time that you went to naughty, naughty dreamland.
39:28Okay.
39:29My...
39:30My...
39:31My key.
39:32I should've...
39:33I should've said...
39:34It's not her baby.
39:36Sarah.
39:37It's not...
39:39Charity.
39:41What?
39:42Charity.
39:43Charity.
39:44Charity.
39:47What?
39:51In time...
39:52I will be able to forgive you.
39:56In France, it will just be me, you, Victoria and Harry, everyone I care about.
40:01And we can finally be the family we are meant to be.
40:05I know it's not gonna be easy.
40:08But if something is worth fighting for, it's...
40:10It's never easy.
40:12And like I said...
40:14It's just gonna take time to repair the damage.
40:16What are they for?
40:30Victoria.
40:32It's not gonna be back until tomorrow, so...
40:35It looks like it's the three of us here tonight.
40:40I need to make sure no one has any...
40:42Thoughts...
40:43About leaving.
40:46I know that face.
40:51That's the face that tells me it's gonna rain and you've forgotten your umbrella.
40:56It's always raining, Laurel.
40:58But right now, it sounds like Hurricane Celia's coming your way.
41:01Don't. I'm probably making it more of an issue than I need to.
41:04I get it. Mother-in-law from hell. It's not a future anybody wants.
41:07Whoa, hang on. Mother-in-law?
41:09You're getting a bit ahead of yourself.
41:11He's agreed to stay. That seems like a pretty big step to me.
41:13You can't let a mum-shaped bump in the road stop you.
41:17I know, but it's a bit weird, isn't it? You know, to be scared of your mum at that age.
41:21Only child syndrome? Or maybe she's just a little too over-protective?
41:27Yeah, I suppose you can't choose your family.
41:30Do you think I'd have the ones I've got, if we could?
41:33Ray you're interested in, not his mum.
41:35He's...good...kind.
41:40Decent.
41:42Do you know how hard it is to find a bloke like that in today's world?
41:45Are you seriously asking me that?
41:47I'm telling you.
41:49You know, once he's stood up to her, those dark clouds will shift
41:53and the sun will be shining on the brightest of futures.
41:56Sometimes we lash out at those we care for the most, don't we?
42:15I guess so.
42:19There's a way through this.
42:22We just need to remember that we're on the same side.
42:26You do understand that, don't you?
42:29Of course.
42:30I still see that sensitive little boy.
42:40When he felt like the whole sky was going to cave in on top of him.
42:47I would throw my arms around you, wouldn't I?
42:50Make it all go away.
42:53Hmm.
42:56Come here, stupid.
43:00I am the only one who will ever love you.
43:14I'm sorry.
43:16Oh, it's okay.
43:18It's okay.
43:20I'm so sorry.
43:21I'm so sorry.
43:35I'm proud of you.
43:36I'm proud of you.
43:52The sky was caving in again.
44:06I'm so sorry.
44:07Don't matter how bad you act after the tide.
44:08Let the rain.
44:09It's okay.
44:10It's okay, eventually.
44:12That's just a good idea.
44:14Hell, a lot.
44:15We'll never forget the waves into the sky.
44:16All right.
44:31Come here.
