00:00I'm making a coffee. Does anyone else want one?
00:29No, Tad. Aye, go ahead.
00:31No, you don't. Decaf for you till we know what's going on with your ticker.
00:34Oh, seriously, Bea?
00:36Yes. Oh, can you please take Susie to a trombone lesson this afternoon?
00:40I don't have to stay and listen, do I?
00:42My ears haven't recovered from the last.
00:44God, no. You're under enough stress as is. Just sit in the car.
00:47Dame.
00:47Eh, I heard that.
00:49Oh, Baba.
00:50You're only joking, sweetheart.
00:52What else?
00:54So, he who runs like the wind, ready for the big race?
00:57Yeah, I was born ready.
00:5820 quid says you're bottle, eh?
00:59Yeah, 20 quid, you're on.
01:01Nothing like a bit of brotherly encouragement, is there?
01:04I'll give you 30 if you win.
01:06Ah, actively encouraging gambling, are we?
01:09It's called fun.
01:11You should try it sometime.
01:18Sausage, butty, no sauce.
01:20Oh, I need that after the shift I've just done.
01:22Hey, don't tell Sally she's got me on the muesli and the rabbit food again.
01:26She's driving me up the wall.
01:28Sounds like a right bossy so-and-so.
01:30Need to grow up here.
01:31Not wrong with a bloke liking a bit of sausage?
01:33She just gets a bit overprotective, that's all.
01:35If you say so.
01:36Hey, keep me in there, won't you?
01:39Just carry out for.
01:40Terrific.
01:41Ooh, are you okay?
01:44No, I'm having a mare.
01:46I'm flying solo and I'm running low on stock and I'm not going to get to the wholesalers.
01:50Oh, well, I'd help you out, but I've got to get back to the hospital in a bit.
01:54I could, er, give you a hand.
01:57The price was right.
01:58Have you any experience working in a cafe?
02:01Seriously?
02:02I don't know if a brain cell could do this.
02:03No offence.
02:05Like, yeah, but I've, er, done loads.
02:08Waitressing, cooking, the lot.
02:11Okay, yeah then, cool.
02:13I'll, er, I'll be a couple of hours, so I'll just show you around and I'll, er, I'll leave my number in case there's any problems.
02:18Don't worry, there won't be.
02:24Are you sure you're up to it, you know, after last night?
02:28Yeah, yeah.
02:29Well, er, it'll take my mind off things, won't it?
02:31Hmm.
02:34Hey.
02:36I tried to call you earlier.
02:37Sorry, my phone was on silent.
02:40Everything I care?
02:42I saw you again.
02:43With him.
02:46You mean Daniel?
02:47Look, I know you need to keep your appearances up, but that doesn't make it any easier for me to see you two together.
02:53Look, if I wanted to be with Daniel, then why would I be thinking about starting a new life?
02:58Why would I be looking at places for us?
03:01Just concentrate on the race.
03:03Let me know where it goes.
03:05Are you really not going to be there?
03:08I can't, I'm sorry, something's come up.
03:12Better be thinking of you.
03:15Like I always am.
03:16Do you want me to have a go?
03:33It's not me, it's this stupid flaming thing.
03:35It must be jammed.
03:36Yeah, I can see that, but I've got places to be and I'm not handing over a tenner for a cup of coffee and not getting any change.
03:41Don't worry, Leanne, I'll get this.
03:43Oh, are you sure?
03:44Yeah, it's just a cup of coffee.
03:46Oh, thank you.
03:50Stupid pigging.
03:51Well, rather than trying to smash it to pieces with a bread knife, shall we try a different way?
04:02Ta-da!
04:03Why didn't you just do that five minutes ago?
04:07Yeah, no worries, you're welcome.
04:09Sorry, it's been a stressful morning.
04:12So I gather.
04:13What's that smell?
04:17Er, I think my cheese toastie might be done.
04:24All right, what are you doing round here?
04:27Don't tell me you're in it today as well.
04:28I don't really view competitive sports, you know, apart from chess.
04:32I've been out with the first aid, so I try not to break anything.
04:36Thanks, I'll try my best.
04:39All right, loser, long time no see.
04:41Sorry, do I, er...
04:43Do I know you?
04:43I'll up-jog your memory.
04:45That's a view you're used to, innit?
04:46Just as I'm passing the finish line in front of you.
04:49Not this time, mate.
04:50So, how's things?
04:51Settling in?
04:52Yeah, I guess.
04:53It took a while, though.
04:56Must be hard moving someplace you don't know anyone.
04:58Although I have heard Megan's working here now as a PE teacher.
05:01Miss was?
05:02Yeah, she is.
05:02Might have to say hello.
05:04She's not coming to the race.
05:05Why not?
05:06How should I know?
05:07Bitty.
05:08Right, well, I'll have to get my kit on.
05:09I'll see you out there, then.
05:10I'll see you in a sec, man.
05:11Yeah.
05:20Are you planning on getting dressed at all for a minute?
05:22No, not if I can help it.
05:24In fact...
05:25You all right?
05:28Sarah is taking care of the factory for us today,
05:31and I thought once I've sent this email,
05:32we could actually have just a day in together.
05:36Just, you know, lozzy around, if that's all right with you.
05:39Yeah.
05:39Sounds good to me.
05:40Yeah.
05:41But I need to go to the jewellers down there
05:43and get my engagement ring altered.
05:44It's still too big.
05:45Yeah.
05:46Yeah, it is a bit.
05:47And I don't want to lose it, do I?
05:49No, you won't be getting another one from me if you do.
05:51Mm-hmm.
05:52Mm-hmm.
05:52How could you kill that two-day anti-salter?
05:55I haven't killed anyone.
05:58You just have called my love for fucking J. Spick, do you there?
06:00What the heck?
06:04Well, what's about?
06:05I don't know and I don't care.
06:06Well, I do.
06:07What are you doing?
06:08Shh!
06:09Shh!
06:10Listen.
06:11Shh!
06:12Give me that glass.
06:14You're not a detective now, you know.
06:16You spoiled the door.
06:17You're not.
06:22Right, I'm off into town.
06:24Let me guess.
06:26Close shopping.
06:27No, I'm gonna buy some noise-cancelling headphones.
06:31Really?
06:32Right, what for?
06:33Um, let's just say I'm really glad you've kissed and made up,
06:36but the walls in this house are pretty thin.
06:40Right.
06:40OK.
06:41Yeah, I get it.
06:47Have fun.
06:48Mm, you and all.
06:54Bit awkward.
06:55What's that?
06:56Just a bit.
06:57Yes?
06:57Ah, sorry to interrupt.
06:59Betsy let me in.
07:00All right, Sal?
07:01Yeah.
07:01What can we do for you?
07:02Oh, it's just that these arrived at our house by mistake,
07:06so I thought I'd, um, bring them round.
07:08Bills, are they?
07:09Yeah.
07:10I should, um, should go.
07:16Are you all right, Sal?
07:17No.
07:18No, I'm not, no.
07:19Me and Tim, we've just had the most awful row.
07:22Oh.
07:22Yeah, we kind of heard.
07:24Oh, how embarrassing.
07:26I'm so sorry.
07:28I'll shut myself out.
07:30No, it's OK.
07:31Er, I need to sit down and talk about it.
07:34Well, as long as I'm not interrupting anything.
07:46How's she doing?
07:48What, you mean since you went for a waz five minutes ago?
07:52Fine.
07:52Oh, you did miss her first words, though.
07:57I love you, Daddy.
07:58Oh.
07:59It was amazing.
08:01Yeah, very funny.
08:03Oh, I tried to ring Jodie, you know, see how she's getting on at the cafe,
08:07but she never answered.
08:09Well, she'd be busy, wouldn't she?
08:11Oh, yeah.
08:12Yeah.
08:12Listen, I know it must have been hard for you to hear, you know, what she was saying
08:22last night, but don't you think you've got enough on?
08:26I get it, you know, you try to talk to her, you know, get her back up on her feet.
08:31All right, OK, but how am I going to get her back on her feet if she's still hiding from
08:34everything that happened?
08:37What do you mean?
08:38What I mean is I need to find out how she got like this and why you treat her like that.
08:47But we need you here.
08:49Look, what are you going to do, start tracking down her ex-boyfriend?
08:52No, I'm not talking about him.
08:56I'm talking about my dad.
09:04I mean, I know all relationships have their ups and downs.
09:16I've been around the block a few times.
09:18Not as much as you have, Carla, but I just feel so unappreciated.
09:25Er, have you tried to talk to Tim about it?
09:28Yeah, I have.
09:29It just goes in one ear and out the other.
09:32I mean, don't get me wrong, I mean, he's perfect.
09:34He's in so many ways, like he's bonny and kind and...
09:39Well, he's a majestic lover when he puts his mind to it.
09:43But I'm just worried we've lost that spark, you know?
09:49Oh, I'm sorry.
09:51Here's you two looking forward to your future and I'm telling you all my problems.
09:55Oh, no, no, it's fine. It's good to talk.
09:59Speaking of which, I just need to go and make a thorn call.
10:03Right.
10:04Would you like another cup of tea, Sally?
10:13I don't suppose you've got anything a little bit stronger, Ab, yeah?
10:16Oh, right, yeah, of course.
10:18We're just going to hook.
10:19Tim, it's Carla.
10:25Call her, Connor.
10:26Sal's around our house, right, and she's upset.
10:29We need to come and get her.
10:31Quick.
10:31Bring flowers.
10:32And toilet cleaner.
10:38Is that it?
10:38Um, did you write down ground coffee?
10:40Got it.
10:41Anything else?
10:42Oh, I need to nick to that new shoe shop.
10:45She got new shoes last week.
10:46Are you trying to do it?
10:47Yeah, but they're still shoes, aren't they?
10:48I bet, but I just want to feel nice.
10:50It's not like I've got thousands of pairs of shoes like Imelda Staunton.
10:54You mean Imelda Marcos?
10:55What?
10:56Imelda Staunton's the actress.
10:58Well, but she's got loads of shoes.
10:59How do I know?
11:00Come on.
11:02Right, that's us away.
11:04Bye, love.
11:06Bye, Eva.
11:07Shh.
11:08Ollie, I need you to change a barrel down in the cellar.
11:12What's the magic word?
11:14Inheritance.
11:17Uh-oh.
11:18Looks like somebody didn't have a good race.
11:20Go easy, Ellen.
11:21Spoiler sport.
11:22I'd ask you how it went, but I think I know.
11:25Yeah, I'll sort you that 20, by the way.
11:27Don't worry about it.
11:28Thanks.
11:29Do you remember my old mate, Lee, from old school?
11:32I thought I recognised the face.
11:34Hello, Mrs Driscoll.
11:35You're looking well.
11:36Oh, you charmer.
11:37And it's Maggie.
11:40Hi.
11:41Heard about the race.
11:43Unlucky?
11:44Not for me, it wasn't.
11:47Hello, Miss Walsh.
11:49How have you been?
11:50Hi, Lee.
11:51I'm good.
11:51Thanks for asking.
11:54Yeah, listen, man, I'm just going to go freshen myself up while we're dying a bit.
11:57Sound.
11:59That barrel is now going to change itself.
12:01Yeah, yeah, I'm on it.
12:03Look, you shouldn't be here.
12:04I missed you.
12:05Did you get me message?
12:07Yeah, I did and I deleted it.
12:08Why?
12:10Look, I'm not doing this here.
12:11There's an alleyway around the back of the pub.
12:13Meet me there in ten minutes.
12:14So, now you've got yourself a job, does that mean you're sticking around?
12:20Oh, I don't know.
12:22I was just helping out for the day.
12:23I haven't really decided yet.
12:25What about you?
12:26Me?
12:26I'm out of here as soon as I can raise the funds.
12:29Well, how come?
12:31Well, I would say I've burnt my bridges, but it's more like incinerate them with a flamethrower,
12:37if you know what I mean.
12:38Uh, let me guess.
12:39You've been putting it about where you shouldn't have and broken some parts, made a few husbands
12:44very angry.
12:46And what makes you think that?
12:48I don't know.
12:49I've just got that look about you.
12:51Well, you've got me all wrong.
12:58Hey, can I help you?
13:01Where's Roy and Nina?
13:03Oh, I'm covering for him.
13:05Do you know what?
13:06Second thoughts, I'll come back later.
13:07No, you don't need to leave.
13:09I was just going.
13:10Somewhere far away and for good, hopefully.
13:15You were saying?
13:24I don't know why we had to meet out here.
13:26Could have just got a drink together.
13:28Oh, yeah, and how would that have looked?
13:30I'm 16 now.
13:31I can do what I want.
13:33Well, I can't.
13:34I thought you liked me.
13:37I did.
13:38I do.
13:40I'm with someone new now.
13:41Who?
13:44A teacher.
13:44Yeah, from the school.
13:46Is it serious?
13:49Yeah.
13:50I love him.
13:51And he loves me.
13:53But, Lee, he can get very jealous.
13:55So that's why he can't call me anymore, OK?
13:56You wouldn't have to know.
13:57We could still talk and meet up.
13:59No, we can't.
14:02Lee, what we had was very special.
14:06And I'll never forget it.
14:09Or you.
14:11But, sorry, it's over.
14:14Please, just give me a chance.
14:16Where did you say it was, Dad?
14:17In the shed?
14:18I have to go.
14:23Take care.
14:25Don't call me, OK?
14:26I just think it's a bad idea.
14:37I mean, you haven't seen him in, what, years?
14:40You don't know where he lives.
14:41You can't exactly speak to your sister about it.
14:43So how are you even going to find him?
14:45I don't know.
14:46He had drinking buddies, all right?
14:47They all went to the same pub while they practically lived in it.
14:49I mean, maybe I could start there.
14:51So they'd have all died of cirrhosis by now.
14:54Oh, well, it's got to be worth a try, hasn't it?
14:57So haven't we got enough on right now?
14:59Without all this with your sister?
15:00Look, it's not just about her, all right?
15:02I want to talk to him, too.
15:04About what?
15:04Well, I want answers.
15:06And if I do find him and I do go and see him,
15:08I don't want our Jodie knowing about it
15:10until I think it's the right time, OK?
15:13Have you seen Lee?
15:14I thought she was with you.
15:15No.
15:16Give him a call.
15:19Hey, thanks for covering anyway.
15:20Did everything go OK?
15:22Yeah, sweet.
15:23Good.
15:25Pie, please.
15:26Listen, I'm going to get off.
15:28I've only just got here.
15:29Yeah, suddenly I don't really feel like drinking anymore.
15:32I'll come with you.
15:34Right, I'll see you later.
15:40You really know how to make an impression, don't you?
15:42Call it a gift.
15:45Don't tell me she's another one of your conquests.
15:47No, she's, er, just, er...
15:50It's complicated.
15:52Look, I can go and sit somewhere else if you like.
15:55No, no, you're OK.
15:57And, yeah, I'd love another.
16:02Whatever the lady's having as well, please.
16:03Do you mind if I, um...
16:08So, you know, when...
16:10When you do get married,
16:13how's that going to work?
16:15In what way, exactly?
16:17I'm not being funny or anything.
16:19I was just thinking...
16:20Are you both going to wear dresses
16:22or are you going to be a bit more chic
16:24and wear an elegant suit, maybe?
16:26Er, you haven't really thought that far ahead,
16:28have we, darling?
16:29Mm.
16:30I'll get it.
16:33Here, what took you?
16:35Don't leave.
16:36Come on, here you go.
16:45What are you doing here?
16:46Well, I came to apologise and to give you these.
16:49Well, thank you.
16:51And the flowers are very nice to him,
16:52but they don't make up for what you said to me this morning.
16:55No, you're right.
16:56I was out of line.
16:57I shouldn't have called you a Karen.
17:03Well, I'm sure you've got a lot of making up
17:06and talking to do,
17:07so we'll see you at work, Sal.
17:14Nice flowers, by the way.
17:17Thank you for listening.
17:18What were you thinking, giving Karen wine?
17:29Oh, well, I couldn't really say no, could I?
17:31She was upset.
17:32Upset?
17:33She was upset.
17:34I was losing the flame of will to live, I tell you.
17:37Karen.
17:38Karen!
17:38Oh, dear.
17:40Mm.
17:41Well, we finally got the house to ourselves, haven't we?
17:44So what do you fancy doing?
17:45Hiya!
17:48Do you miss me?
17:49Mm-hmm.
17:50Mm-hmm.
17:57I'm sorry.
17:59You said you didn't want to go
18:01and I still made you go to the pub.
18:03I should have listened.
18:04No, Nina, it's not your fault.
18:07Things just still feel really raw.
18:09It's going to take time.
18:11A long time.
18:13Yeah.
18:14Well, how about we watch a stupid movie
18:16and chill or something?
18:18I actually just feel like being on my own.
18:21I'll be fine, honest.
18:22And I'll text you later.
18:25OK.
18:26If you're sure.
18:27Yeah, I'm sure.
18:29All right.
18:30Come here.
18:32Thanks, Nina.
18:34I'll see you, yeah?
18:35Yeah, see you.
18:35Hiya.
18:53It's only me.
18:54Weatherfield's answered to Richard Chamberlain.
18:57Yeah, sorry.
18:58That's probably a bit before your time.
18:59Anyway, it's nothing important.
19:01Could you just give us a call when you get this?
19:02Right, love you.
19:04Bye.
19:12Hiya.
19:13It's only me.
19:14Weatherfield's answered to Richard Chamberlain.
19:17Yeah, sorry.
19:17That's probably a bit before your time.
19:19Anyway, it's nothing important.
19:20Could you just give us a call when you get this?
19:22Right, love you.
19:23Bye.
19:30Hiya.
19:31It's only me.
19:31I think it's also Richard Chamberlain.
19:37Hey.
19:39It's after the company.
19:40Well, couldn't have you sat there like Billy No-Mates, could I?
19:43I guess not.
19:44So, I'll see you around then?
19:47Yeah.
19:48Yeah, I'm sure you will.
19:49Especially if you're buying the drinks again.
19:52See you later.
19:57Moved on to your next victim, have you?
19:59Oh, change the record.
20:02Abby is getting boring now.
20:04And I never forced you to do anything you didn't want to.
20:07Not my fault you can't keep your knickers on around me.
20:10You scum, do you know that?
20:11And I am going to make sure everybody knows it.
20:15You need to get over this.
20:17Over me.
20:17And you should be careful what you say about people.
20:21You think I'm scared of you?
20:23Well, no.
20:24But you should be.
20:25Oh, where have you been then?
20:32I've been trying to call you.
20:33Why'd you run off?
20:35I didn't just come here for the race.
20:37I came because I knew she'd be here.
20:39And I wanted to see her.
20:41Right, who?
20:42Megan.
20:44Wait, why have we gone about?
20:46I had a thing with her last year.
20:48I thought it was serious.
20:49But now, I can see she was just using me.
20:53What, are you saying you slept with her?
20:54Yeah.
20:55But what did you think I meant?
20:57I don't believe you.
20:58I don't care if you believe us or not.
21:00Why would I lie?
21:02I don't know, to make yourself look bigger.
21:03Make yourself seem like you're someone you're not.
21:04What is your problem?
21:06Are you jealous?
21:07Is that it?
21:08As if.
21:09Everyone at school fancied her mate.
21:11Including you.
21:11Yeah, all right.
21:12She's my coach.
21:13I fancied her.
21:14There's nothing wrong with her.
21:15But going around making up lies about her,
21:16do you know what could happen?
21:17She could lose her job.
21:18She might end up in prison.
21:19I'm not lying.
21:20Well, yeah, she's not the type of girl
21:21to do something like that, though.
21:22Look, I'm telling you the truth.
21:24So just deal with it.
21:25I've got to go.
21:26I'll see you around.
21:32What's up?
21:32Are you OK?
21:34Yeah, I'm fine.
21:35All right, good.
21:35Let's get home then.
21:36I'm starving.
