00:00You have caused so much pain to so many people.
00:16Don't leave me alone!
00:18I don't trust you.
00:20And I am going to be the mug who comes and visits you in prison.
00:23No!
00:25You can scream what you want.
00:27Don't leave me alone!
00:30Shut up!

01:28Bea, I'm not being funny, but we hardly knew each other.
01:33I mean, weren't you a few years above me?
01:34I was in the sixth form, yes,
01:37but that didn't stop you laughing and calling me all sorts
01:39just because I got on with the teachers.
01:41We were kids.
01:43When everyone teased each other, that's just how it was.
01:46That's not quite how it happened, but whatever.
01:49Are you listening to this?
01:50Because you know me, and you know I'm not like that.
01:52No, of course not.
01:53See?
01:54Yeah, but maybe you should hear her out.
01:55Look, you may not be like that now,
01:58but your posse tormented me and my friends.
02:03Friend.
02:04Taking the mickey out of our hair and our clothes and...
02:08I never did that yet, but you never defended me, though, did you?
02:11These gossip behind our backs,
02:13start off childish rumours and spread them around the classroom.
02:16Do you remember your mate
02:17that locked a tampon in front of the sports hall
02:21and told everyone it was mine?
02:22I stayed home for 11 days
02:26and a whole morning after that.
02:27Yeah, that weren't my idea.
02:28Yeah, but you still let them humiliate me
02:31in front of everyone, didn't you?
02:33Look, whatever you thought she was like then,
02:35I can assure you,
02:37she's not that person now.
02:38Yes, weren't who I was then either.
02:40No, I remember what it was like at school time.
02:42Do you know, the whispering, the teasing,
02:44being ignored.
02:45I mean, it was horrible.
02:46Oh, yeah, you see what it does to people?
02:49What, you swall around with your perfect life?
02:51Oh, you think my life's perfect?
02:52I'm sure you've got a nice home,
02:55kids that can do no wrong,
02:56handsome hubby on your own.
02:58You know nothing about me.
02:59Right, you don't get to stand there
03:00and judge me about something
03:01you say happened over 30 years ago.
03:04Look, I think we should go.
03:06Linda.
03:08It's okay.
03:10I forgive you.
03:11Oh, Tim!
03:22Hi.
03:23You're not going to catch
03:25when you've got your stomp on it,
03:25you're not going to catch.
03:26Here you go.
03:28I picked up your meds for you.
03:31Tim, you know,
03:32you don't have to do this.
03:34Why don't you just come back with me, yeah?
03:36No, thank you.
03:37You've clearly picked your side.
03:39But you don't have to pick sides.
03:40This isn't even about sides.
03:45We're supposed to be one big family, right?
03:46Yes.
03:47Yeah.
03:47A family that has been torn asunder
03:49by that little witch.
03:51All right, I'll admit,
03:52she's not perfect,
03:53but she's just a kid.
03:54And she's going through a lot right now.
03:56Oh, God.
03:58Why am I the only one
04:00who sees her for what she is?
04:01Maybe because you're the only one
04:03that's not seen straight right now.
04:04That's why you need these.
04:06Jim, you gave Jazz a real scare last night, okay?
04:11I haven't actually
04:12been feeling like myself for a while,
04:15and not just interstitial it.
04:19All the more reason to
04:20listen to your doctor, yeah?
04:24I'll think about it.
04:25Okay.
04:25But it won't change anything.
04:30Jasmine is trouble.
04:31You mark my words.
04:33She is lying to all of you.
04:35Why don't you just give it some time, yeah?
04:38I promise you,
04:39when you come back,
04:40you'll realise
04:40she's harmless.
04:43Even if she is half Slater.
04:49Where do you go?
04:51Where do you go?
04:54I'm not leaving.
04:55It's all right.
04:55Answer me.
05:02Answer me.
05:22Answer me.
05:23Answer me.

16:00Ah!
16:02Ah!
16:02Ah!
16:03Ah!
16:03Oh!
16:03Ah!
16:04Ah!
16:05Ah!
16:05Ah!
16:06Ah!
16:06Ah!
16:15Ah!
16:16Ah!
16:16Ah!
16:17Ah!
16:17Ah!
16:18Ah!
16:18Ah!
16:19Ah!
16:20Ah!
16:20Ah!
16:21Ah!
16:22He didn't do anything.
16:24Well, there you go.
16:26What if this other kid's telling the truth, Mum?
16:29And that Ollie did hit him?
16:30Why would you think that?
16:32Every parent thinks their kid is the good one
16:35and it's others that cause trouble,
16:36but when we're not around,
16:38how do we really know what they're like?
16:39Where's this all come from, darling?
16:42I bumped into someone at the school reunion.
16:46Bea Pollard.
16:48She said I was horrible to her at school.
16:50Oh, come on.
16:52You know, she was serious.
16:53You were the most popular girl at school.
16:55All those other girls are just jealous.
16:57Yeah, but them girls that I hung out with,
16:58you know, I didn't just laugh along.
17:01You know, I did run my mouth off a bit sometimes.
17:03Well, good. So?
17:05So, I shouldn't have done that.
17:07I should have stood up for people like Bea.
17:10And now they're saying all this about Ollie
17:11and I would just hate it if you made anyone feel that way.
17:14Oh.
17:15I'll get it.
17:16Yeah, just through there.
17:22Oh, thank you.
17:23I've got Bea's bag by mistake
17:25and she must have mine.
17:29Is her address in there?
17:30Oh.
17:30I guess this is my chance to apologise.
17:40Would you come with me?
17:41I don't think I can face her alone.
17:44Here.
17:48Can I come in?
17:50I can't exactly say no, can I?
17:52It's not my pub.
17:52It doesn't mean we have to sit in the same room, though.
18:00I just wanted to say sorry.
18:03Everything has gone down since I've arrived.
18:05I mean, it wouldn't have happened if it weren't for Chrissie, so...
18:07You seriously blaming her?
18:09You put my family through hell.
18:10Nan and Tommy got the blame.
18:12If I could take it all back, I would.
18:14Okay, your family have been so nice to me.
18:18I mean, apart from Jean maybe breaking into my room
18:21and threatening me with a stool.
18:23But I'd have deserved that, to be honest.
18:24No, she's not well.
18:29Still, that must have been scary, though.
18:31Yeah.
18:32For real.
18:34But, you know, after it all calmed down,
18:37I realised just how much she's actually struggling.
18:40I tried to get her to stay, Lily, I swear.
18:45I would have been fine to just get out of her way,
18:47and let her recover at home.
18:51It's too late now.
18:54Who is Lynn, anyway?
18:58She's your nan's old sister.
19:01Any other family I should know about?
19:05There's also little Mo.
19:07Oh, you mean mini-Mo.
19:09No, little Mo, Freddie's mum.
19:11And Belinda.
19:13But we don't really talk to her anymore.
19:14She's a bit of a snob.
19:15Um, and there's Uncle Sean.
19:19That's who my mum's visiting in Brazil.
19:21And Uncle Kyle.
19:23He works with this charity in Africa.
19:24You just see his Instagram.
19:26Oh.
19:28It's a lot of new relatives in one go, ain't it?
19:31Now there's you.
19:32Hey, I'd really like it if we could, like, hang out sometimes.
19:42Hey, I could even help babysit.
19:45So you can revise or hang out with your mates.
19:48What do you reckon?
19:53I'll think about it.
19:54This is the street.
20:00Your flat must be down here.
20:03That's her.
20:04You are not giving me a chance to explain.
20:07Explain what?
20:08Why you're such a mess.
20:09You have caused me nothing but grief since the day you moved in.
20:12And now I've got to get the locks changed.
20:13Again.
20:13I told you, I told you, it wasn't my phone.
20:17It wasn't my phone.
20:18Never is, is it?
20:21Someone took my key.
20:22I'm not interested.
20:23You're a parasite.
20:24Just take your stuff and go.
20:26Oh, no.
20:26Wait a minute.
20:27Marcus, you can't do this.
20:28You can't actually do this because I've got rights.
20:31I've got rights!
20:39Hey.
20:39We've got your keys.
20:48Oh, I was just going to come and see you.
20:50I managed to steer Nugget off.
20:52So you're welcome.
20:53Ravi's gone.
20:54Well, I should think so.
20:55He made our dose, didn't he?
20:57Oh.
20:58I said he ain't there.
21:00Do you mean he ain't there?
21:01Well, I put him in a pit and I locked the door,
21:02but he must have got out the bag.
21:04Okay.
21:05Well, at least he won't be found in your workplace.
21:08This is good.
21:09Good.
21:10Mum, he could be anywhere,
21:11running his mouth to God knows who.
21:13Or he's outside waiting to batter us.
21:15Hurry, calm down.
21:16He's not going to cause any trouble.
21:18Stay, he'll be in.
21:19Look, trust me.
21:20Right now, Ravi Gulati couldn't hurt a fly.
21:25I've checked all the businesses and properties.
21:27Still no sign.
21:28All right, yeah.
21:29I'll be back in five minutes.
21:35Yo.
21:36Oh, who's that?
21:41Is that you?
21:46Take it that's mine, then.
21:47It was a mistake, I swear.
21:49Well, if you got to here 20 minutes ago,
21:51I still have a place to live.
21:52Just saying.
21:53Are you okay?
21:56I'm fine.
21:57I was thinking of moving on anyway.
21:59He's done me a favour.
22:01Anyway, thanks for the bag.
22:04You can go now.
22:05I'm sorry for being a gobby little cow back then.
22:15That's nice, Linda,
22:16but I've kind of got bigger problems at the moment.
22:19Have you got anywhere to go?
22:21I've got a really good friend in my land.
22:24We haven't spoken in a while, so...
22:27Could she not stay at yours?
22:28Sorry?
22:29Yeah, what?
22:30Um, Linda runs a B&B.
22:33I mean, have you got any spare rooms?
22:35I'm not a charity case.
22:37No, no, no.
22:38Uh, I could do mates' rates.
22:41And, you know, after everything,
22:42maybe it's the least I can do.
22:45What do you say?
22:48Yeah, all right.
22:49Oh.
22:49Are you OK?
22:58Yeah.
23:01Oh.
23:02You know, I know it's been here for a couple of weeks,
23:04but at this point,
23:06just one day apart feels like a lifetime.
23:10The thought of anything happening to him while I'm away
23:12would just be...
23:13Look, Julie, I really think you should know...
23:14Look, I also need you to keep an eye on Phil, please.
23:17I know that, um, he can't do it all on his own,
23:20although he likes to think otherwise.
23:24You are lucky, you know.
23:26I haven't got any siblings.
23:28You know, I haven't got a big brother
23:29looking out for me.
23:32Just keep him close.
23:34We all need someone to lean on
23:35every now and then, don't we?
23:38Yeah.
23:39Yeah.
23:41Sorry, what were you going to say?
23:43No, no, not nothing.
23:44I was actually just going to say
23:45you don't need to worry.
23:48I'll make sure that Phil does right by Nigel.
23:51Right.
23:52Safe trip.
24:00And that's everything.
24:02This place is so kitsch.
24:07Well, interior designer, yours truly.
24:10Oh, I love the faux elegance.
24:14Subtle furnishings are so overrated.
24:17I like the loud, in-your-face look.
24:21It's like a sensory overload.
24:24Well, don't worry about it, sweetheart.
24:26My daughter assures me
24:27your stay here will be very short.
24:29Mum,
24:30you
24:31haven't changed a bit since school.
24:33I mean,
24:33you literally look exactly the same.
24:36Excuse me, I hope not.
24:39I'm like a fine wine.
24:40I get better with age.
24:42You were always one of the nicer mums.
24:45Be careful, all right?
24:46All that praise will go to her head.
24:48Listen,
24:48I'm not going to outstain my welcome.
24:50I just need to get back on my feet, you know?
24:52Always seem to be paddling upstream.
24:55I had this one job.
24:57Government stuff.
24:58Very hush-hush.
24:59I can't really talk about it, actually.
25:01Anyway,
25:02due to someone else's incompetence,
25:05I was moved on.
25:06Left without a pot to...
25:08Of course,
25:10most people get some inheritance
25:12from their parents, don't they?
25:14But I...
25:15Yeah.
25:15But you know what they say?
25:17Bad things happen to good people.
25:20Yeah, well, you're here now, you know?
25:21You just feel free to make yourself at home.
25:23Oh, thanks, Linda.
25:25Look,
25:25when I saw you earlier,
25:27it was a bit of a shock,
25:28you know?
25:29But now I know
25:31it was for the right reasons,
25:33and this is the moment
25:34I'm finally going to
25:35turn my wife around.
25:38Good night.
25:40Good night.
25:44What?
25:44Sleep well.
25:48Now do you see who I had to help her?
25:50Linda,
25:50it's not your job
25:51to fix anyone.
25:53You have Ollie and Annie
25:54to think of.
25:55I know, I know,
25:56but I need to make up
25:56for what I've done.
25:57And you heard her.
25:59She's not going to be here for long.
26:00Well,
26:00I just hope you know
26:02what you're doing.
26:05Let's take your card.
26:07Okay.
26:07We need to get him going.
26:08Pupils are active to life.
26:10Yes.
26:10Priya,
26:11wait outside.
26:12You're only going to upset yourself.
26:14Priya, go.
26:15Let's go.
26:17Priya.
26:17Oh, my God.
26:19My baby.
26:19Stand back, please.
26:20Devinda.
26:21They had to put him in a coma.
26:25They're taking him
26:26straight into intensive care.
26:27Stand back, please.
26:29They're doing everything they can.
26:30Devinda, my baby.
26:31I'm here.
26:32Please be careful with him.
26:34Please.
26:35Who's done this?
26:37Who's done this to my boy?
