00:00Yeah, mate, if you could just have a little dab around here, mate, yeah, don't worry about it.
00:18Oh, it's crazy now, mate. You can warm me up when we get back inside.
00:21Oh, hold your horses. You've got that adoption meeting to get ready for, remember?
00:25Hey, you're coming at all.
00:26Well, it's okay, I'm going to want me in there, is she?
00:28It's a family interview, and they already know you exist.
00:31Oi, watch it!
00:33Oi, but you got a problem?
00:35Hey, hey, hey, come on, come on, look.
00:37It's obviously an accident, wasn't it?
00:39Sorry, I didn't see you.
00:42Well, just be careful next time, yeah?
00:45Okay.
00:49See?
00:51Show the adoption book what a reformed character you want.
00:54Come on, Harry.
00:56Get you a capture.
00:58Harry!
01:00Harry, we can't just leave. What about Ricky and Charlie?
01:02It's out of my hands and in his.
01:04Well, Jane, Jane, hold on. You don't need to drag Lily and Charlie into this.
01:08They're under my duty of care.
01:09Well, no, you've got me and Harvey helping, right?
01:11Exactly.
01:12How about we go and give you a match, yeah?
01:14No amount of drugs is going to stop me from seeing Jasmine for what she's really like,
01:18so you have got until lunchtime to get rid or we're out.
01:22Lily!
01:23You know what? I don't think Jean's slept a wink. Again, after last night.
01:31Oh, mate, I'm going to have to go. I've got to get ready for this meeting.
01:34Hey, it's all good, darling. I've got this.
01:35Cheers.
01:39No blooming breakfast customers, then?
01:42I reckon Ian's intercepted them all.
01:44Good thing, too, because we are not equipped to compete with the cat.
01:47We could do with the extra income.
01:50And Max has got a load of flat viewings later.
01:52I thought you'd be pleased to see the back of him.
01:54Him, yes. His wallet, no.
01:58You rub that any harder, darling. A genie's going to jump out.
02:01Oh, wait. Let me guess.
02:03Max has tried another round of tonsil tennis, has he?
02:06No, no, no, no. It's this school reunion.
02:08The more I think about it, the more I want to give it a miss.
02:11Oh, honey keeps texting, all excited. I mean, it's not even her school.
02:14This sounds like nerves to me.
02:16Listen, only losers in life avoid these events.
02:19You show up and you peacock the hell out of it with your wins.
02:24Oh, what? Running a cash-track B&B with my overbearing mother?
02:27Excuse me, this is a boutique hotel.
02:29What do you mean, overbearing?
02:32I swear, if this is honey, I...
02:34Hello?
02:39Yes, speaking.
02:43Ollie?
02:49What do you mean?
02:50What do you mean?
02:50What do you mean?
02:51What do you mean?
02:52Where's the box with all my hair stuff?
02:54I have no idea.
02:56Well, there's no rush.
02:57I have to change it into something more demure.
03:00Sofie's orders, what?
03:01I need a quick shower as well before we head over.
03:03What, you coming to the adoption meeting?
03:05Yeah.
03:05I'm going to prove to them that I can behave and that I'm a change man.
03:10Erm, no, Dad, I'm not going to lie, yeah?
03:13What Grandma was saying earlier is that she definitely did not want you there today.
03:18I mean, it ain't personal.
03:20Well, it kind of is, but, like...
03:21Just think about it.
03:22Who'd let a family associate with someone like Dad adopt a kid?
03:25Just with your record or not?
03:27Oh, it's fine.
03:27Well, I'd rather not be interrogated anyway, so, uh...
03:31But we're turning over a new leaf.
03:33Daddy's just worried about good role models.
03:35Er, right, come on.
03:36You lot better finish getting ready.
03:38You're going to be late on my account, dear.
03:39Look.
03:41Right, go on.
03:41Off you go.
03:43And you.
03:47It's all good.
03:48Bye.
03:48Where's my jacket?
03:49I don't know.
03:50You've got something really good.
03:51Nice.
03:53Where's my jacket?
03:55I swear you had it, like...
03:56No, my jacket's good.
03:57Come on, what's taking so long?
03:59My jacket, Mum?
04:00Yeah, and I'm...
04:01Don't worry.
04:02I've got time to take care of you.
04:04So now you just need to focus on your recovery.
04:08You keep your head down,
04:09get your eyes open, right?
04:11And learn more than accidentally bumping into Ravi.
04:15Gina.
04:17Morning.
04:19Hi.
04:19Give it time.
04:25No, she deserves better.
04:28Then I'll get to keep the girl, do we?
04:30Hey, listen.
04:32Me and the kids are getting a load of Chinese in tonight, right?
04:35And I watch a film.
04:37Fancy it?
04:38Yeah, sounds sweet.
04:39Yeah, see?
04:40See, I told you, old man,
04:42I'd look out for you, didn't I?
04:44Hey, Billy.
04:45There's a bird over there
04:46that's ironing up your ceramic token.
04:47I'm joking.
04:48It's worth a few quid, then.
04:50But I'll see you tonight, OK?
04:52And keep your nose clean.
04:55You all right?
04:56Yeah.
04:58Where are we at with Ravi?
04:59Delivery's just landed.
05:01Enough for a nice little cocktail.
05:03All we need now
05:05is a visit from Ravi.
05:06Are you sure you stood up for this?
05:12With every bone in my body.
05:16Kat, listen, sweetheart.
05:17Just follow your nose, darling.
05:18I mean, Corfu's harder the size of Walford, isn't it?
05:21Everything's your end.
05:22The boys and Jasmine all right?
05:24Yeah, yeah, boys are good
05:25and Jasmine is fitted in like, you know, like,
05:27butter on toast.
05:28Trust me, everything is fine, darling.
05:31Just, um...
05:32Look, Kat, listen, you're cutting it.
05:35Listen, if you can hear me, I love you.
05:37I'll talk to you later.
05:37Oi, oi, oi, oi, what?
05:39You're not a crank doing a runner, are you?
05:41No, Oscar's gone to cover the store.
05:43I just thought I'd best head
05:44considering Gene's dishing out ultimatums.
05:47OK, OK, well, let's just forget
05:48about that little kerfuffle last night.
05:52Now, Gene...
05:52She has a point.
05:54I have done some really messed up things, Alfie, OK?
05:56You do not want me sticking around.
05:58Oi, you listen to me.
05:59I want all my family sticking around, OK?
06:02Now, are we forgiving you
06:03for everything that's happened?
06:04But the Slaters and the Moons,
06:07we protect our own, OK?
06:09Come hell or a high water.
06:11Gene didn't get that memo, did you?
06:13OK, no, I'll get that.
06:15Listen, once Gene's on her new meds,
06:17it'll balance her out.
06:20Jazz, come on, just give it a few days.
06:22I promise you, you're surrounded
06:23by people who care about you.
06:25At least think about it, yeah?
06:26You just don't sound like Ollie.
06:32Lashing out, hitting other kids.
06:35Well, Pat just said a similar thing about Anthony.
06:37You've got to watch a man's temper.
06:39You never know where you might lead.
06:41Ollie's ten.
06:42Even so, girl.
06:45Linda.
06:45I've sent you about six texts.
06:48Are we still on for tonight?
06:49Oh, honey, look, I really appreciate you offering to join me,
06:52but I'm not going to go to the reunion tonight.
06:54I really need to talk to Ollie after school.
06:56Oh, no, I was really looking forward to tonight.
06:59Even if the legs waxed.
07:01Not here, you didn't.
07:01No, I presumed you were close
07:04because I'm family bereavement.
07:07Oh.
07:07When was the last time you did something fun for Linda?
07:12Eh?
07:12She's got a point.
07:14No.
07:15That would be £30, please.
07:16Exactly.
07:18Carpool DM.
07:19It's for your own sanity.
07:21Please.
07:22All right, I guess.
07:24Okay, all right, good.
07:25Well, I'll see you tonight.
07:26I'll see you tonight.
07:27Then I'll look nice.
07:28Oh.
07:28Just a bit.
07:33Yeah, I've got it.
07:38Has anyone seen my purse?
07:41I need to book a coach to Edinburgh for this evening.
07:45Well, you're not looking at care homes up there, are you?
07:46No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
07:48Me and Nigel will put in our house on the market.
07:50We need it sold as soon as.
07:53Well, that's a big step.
07:54Yeah, well, it's a necessary one.
07:56So, er, where are you going to live?
07:58Like, long term?
07:59Oh, I haven't thought that far ahead.
08:01Oh!
08:01Oh!
08:02Er, I'm just concentrating on Nigel's needs at the moment.
08:06Yeah, well, I hope it goes well.
08:08Oh, thanks.
08:10See you two later.
08:11Phil, she does know that you're taking him abroad, yeah?
08:20You heard her.
08:21I'll concentrate on what Nigel needs.
08:23Well, Portuguese sun, coastal views, doing the world of good.
08:26Yeah, but you're planning on bringing him back, yeah?
08:28Listen, Nigel, don't need dumping in some grotty care home.
08:30I know that much.
08:31Phil, soon enough, he's not going to know if he's in the Algarve or down the allotment.
08:35He just needs familiar faces and a lot of support.
08:38Yeah, well, Grant said we could stay at his.
08:40Oh, yeah.
08:40Right, Grant's going to slip on a penny, is he, and play at Florence Nightingale?
08:43Sam, Nigel is dying.
08:46Don't you think he deserves one break away before that happens?
08:50So just keep your big hair, yeah?
08:54What, and Anthony's sons definitely won't come down for the funeral?
08:59I don't think their mother will permit that.
09:01Look, Patrick's their granddad.
09:02Surely they'll want to see him, you know?
09:04Hey.
09:05Right, ladies, hope you enjoyed it.
09:07Yeah, lovely.
09:07Yeah, lovely.
09:08Out, John, I won't be long, mate.
09:09I know what you want.
09:11Seems like you could use a hand.
09:14Good thing I'm saying, then, innit?
09:16Hey, lovely.
09:19Well, if you're going to stay, you can hold a fork for me while I go and change the barrel.
09:21Yeah, sure.
09:22As long as you don't put your back out.
09:23Oh, very funny.
09:24You come here.
09:24So you've chosen the demonic heathen over your own family?
09:31Now, Jean, now you listen.
09:32No, you listen.
09:34After all my investigations, she is bad news.
09:37Jean, don't start that again.
09:38Okay, listen, she's done nothing wrong.
09:39Everything on my crime wall suggests otherwise.
09:43Jasmine murdered Anthony.
09:46He's a dad.
09:47You're arresting the poor girl.
09:48She bore false witness from the very second she arrived on the square.
09:52Oh, do you know what?
09:54Well done.
09:55You win.
09:55I'm off.
09:56Jean, why don't we talk about this upstairs?
09:58Come on, Jean.
09:58Don't leave because of me.
10:00Oh, Jean!
10:01It'll never be well.
10:02I've sucked everyone else into your shadow of darkness, but I see the devil behind those eyes.
10:07Okay, Jean, listen.
10:08Look, you're upsetting everybody here, okay?
10:10Now, just, please, just go home and we'll talk about this later.
10:13Please.
10:18Hi.
10:18I love you, all right?
10:22Look, don't worry about, Jean.
10:24Just come and come and sit down with us.
10:25I'm fine.
10:26Come.
10:37Think that went well?
10:38Sookie seemed kind of relaxed.
10:40Eve sure weren't.
10:41Too busy stressing about that Jean drama.
10:43Yeah, and they were all up in our business.
10:45I mean, it's not like we're the ones adopting the kid.
10:46Uh, don't get too comfortable.
10:50We both can still make the last bit of college.
10:52What?
10:52No one's bothered about that, Mum.
10:53Hmm.
10:54Let's see what Dad thinks.
10:56Ravi!
10:58Do you reckon Dad's upset about what we said earlier?
11:01Oh, it hardly comes a surprise to him.
11:03Like, he knows what he's done.
11:04Oh, I didn't see his text.
11:08It's helping Vinny with some business stuff.
11:11Guess that means it's college for you two then, doesn't it?
11:13Come on.
11:15Off we go.
11:18See you, Mum.
11:19See you.
11:21See you.
11:21Yeah.
11:22Shall we walk?
11:22Yeah, we went to Watford just before our final exams.
11:29Left all our can-in-town mates behind.
11:31Oh, no, that's not good.
11:33Yeah, they were devastated.
11:34I mean, me and Mick were like the original Posh and Becks.
11:36No, Linda, they're checking names.
11:38Oh, that's a bit over the top.
11:42Maybe I could sneak you in round the back.
11:43No.
11:45Not after the last time your mother was looking for Charlie.
11:47What?
11:48Oh, it's a long story.
11:50I'm not going in on my own.
11:52You could use someone else's name.
11:54Why, whose name?
11:55Well, there'd be loads of people who don't turn up.
11:57Life's losers, as my mother so nicely put it.
12:00Oh, come on, honey.
12:01This is what carpe diem is all about.
12:04Linda.
12:05Linda.
12:05Hi.
12:06Hi.
12:06I am Linda Carter, and this is Bea.
12:11What's her name?
12:12Pollard.
12:13Pollen.
12:15Bea Pollard.
12:16Pollard.
12:16Excuse Bea, she's just had her lips done.
12:21Sure.
12:22In you go.
12:24Oh.
12:25Hey, Landon, are you here?
12:46Don't worry.
12:47My lips are sealed.
12:51Everyone needs space now and again.
12:53Heh.
12:55Isaac's birthday is next week.
12:58He's been giving me space.
13:01Two dead sons, and Isaac avoiding me too.
13:06What a legacy.
13:08Your sons could have done a lot worse than you for a dad.
13:12Yeah, man, but, you know, my parting word to aunt and you.
13:16You were holding him to account like a proper dad should.
13:19Yeah, but I belittled him.
13:20Let's be honest, that man, I'm a failure for a father.
13:24Stiff competition for that round here, Patrick.
13:27According to my kids anyway.
13:28You after him and have a drink, or are you just going to stick your nose in?
13:31No, no, no, no, no, no.
13:32A double rum for him.
13:34On me.
13:35And a drink for you too.
13:36All right.
13:37Harry, drop all your plans, babe.
14:01We're on.
14:06Hi.
14:06Yeah, sorry.
14:07I must make sure I talk to Ollie in the morning.
14:09Yeah.
14:10Well, come on, phone's away.
14:11Oh, yeah, I need to tap into our schoolgirl personas.
14:13Oh.
14:14Well, I definitely had more fun back then.
14:17Till I got pregnant.
14:19Well, I bet you were batting the boys away with a stick.
14:22Oh, no, I was a mixed girl.
14:24Never had to worry about that.
14:26Although, Max did try it on last week.
14:30Did you do?
14:31No.
14:32What do you take me for?
14:33Red-blooded woman with a pulse.
14:35Honey.
14:36What?
14:37No, it's Bea Pollard talking, not me.
14:39Oh, no, no, no.
14:40No, Bea would never, um...
14:42She was more of a hang-out-with-the-teachers type.
14:46Oh, one of those.
14:47One of those, yeah.
14:48She was obsessed with these little crocheted birds on her bag.
14:54Yeah, I think she even named them.
14:56Um, oh.
14:58Herbert and Delilah.
14:59Oh.
14:59Well, looking back, she was a bit odd.
15:02I can't judge.
15:03I like birds.
15:05I'm quite partial to a cute little woodpecker.
15:07Oh, well, that explains Billy, then.
15:09Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.
15:11Oh, Shona and Dave!
15:14Oh, I haven't seen them in forever.
15:15I'll be right back.
15:15Julie's still there?
15:29Yeah, upstairs packing.
15:32You come to your senses yet?
15:34Look, the flights to Portugal.
15:36Me and Nigel leave on Friday.
15:38What, this Friday?
15:39Yeah, I'm gonna text Louie, see if she wants to bring Peggy to join us.
15:42Are you living in La La Land?
15:45Julie ain't gonna have this.
15:46If we stay longer, Julie can catch us up later.
15:48Anyway, it's probably cheaper getting her care out in Portugal.
15:51You can barely say help in Portuguese, let alone find it.
15:54So, I said, and I promised Nigel I'd do right by him, and this, this is for the best.
15:58Oh, really?
16:00For who?
16:02Since when have you been so interested in it?
16:03Oh, I don't know, Phil.
16:04I thought you supported family, you know, no matter what.
16:08What's that supposed to mean?
16:10Sam, what's that supposed to mean?
16:13I got the date for my surgery.
16:18It's in two weeks, but I guess you'll be long gone by then, won't you?
16:28Sorry, sorry, did you want to get to the Knaibs?
16:30No, I don't touch white meat or dairy.
16:34And I'm very intolerant of gluten.
16:37No, I, uh, we're bag twins.
16:41Great taste?
16:42Ah, so we are.
16:44Don't you just love the inner flaps that hide the mirror?
16:47My billy was ever so surprised when I pulled it out.
16:52Bea, I can't place you from school.
16:55What?
16:55Um, I used to hang out with the teachers.
16:59Yeah.
17:00But you might remember my crocheted birds.
17:02They were attached to my, to my backpack.
17:05Herbert and Delilah.
17:06Oh, Hubert and Delilah.
17:08Yeah, I remember them very well.
17:11Yeah.
17:11I mean, I was a bit of an oddball, wasn't I back then, but...
17:15I wouldn't say that.
17:16Me neither, but then I am biased.
17:19I'm Bea.
17:20What are you playing at?
17:22What are you playing at?
17:24Um...
17:24Cool.
17:25Cool.
17:25Cool.
17:26Cool.
17:29Meu mam, I tell you.
17:30Mein padre, he was a strict God-fearing man, you know.
17:34And I was scared of him thud kelly.
17:36Yeah, he died when I was still a boy, though.
17:39Lucky you.
17:40Oh, sorry.
17:43Wait, I take it your father, Nish, wasn't all that different.
17:48Geesey called Ranbir raised me, but him and Nish were two bees in the pod.
17:54Poison.
17:56Yeah, I swore I'd do better like the boys.
17:59It would be there for them to be different from my father.
18:05One fight don't erase all the years Anthony felt wanted.
18:09Not everybody can say that.
18:10No, breaking the cycle is not all that easy at all at all.
18:14But you've done well by your kids.
18:16You should be proud, man.
18:19Well, you're getting through these quickly, aren't you fellas?
18:22That's a dark one for you, Patrick.
18:24Spice for you, Ravi.
18:27You run the house.
18:28All right?
18:29Yeah.
18:30Yeah, man, you should hold your head high.
18:35All your kids, they're on your side.
18:37Cherish that, at least.
18:41Yeah, man.
18:42Yeah.
18:51We need packed bags, Lily.
18:53Now!
18:55Alfie, she just won't listen to me.
18:56Oh, who's she?
18:57The cat's mother.
18:58I have given Lynne our exact time of arrival.
19:02Well, you're going to Lynne's.
19:05Nan, please, I don't want to drag Charlie halfway across London.
19:08Jean, why don't we just have a cuppa and have a chat about it?
19:11Oh, I'm sorry, Eve.
19:12But Charlie, Lily and I have really got to evacuate pronto.
19:15Chop, chop!
19:19Jean, you know, I think it's a great idea you're going to spend some time with Lynne.
19:24Bit of space, good for your head, you know?
19:26So, how about Lily and Charlie staying with me at the Vic, yeah?
19:32But Jasmine, on your Nelly!
19:34Nan, even after everything that's happened with Jasmine, I still feel safer with her than
19:38I do you right now.
19:39You are not well!
19:41I'm sorry.
19:42Please don't hate me.
19:45Decision's yours.
19:46Go.
19:47All right.
19:48Lil, let's go pack your bag.
19:49Come on.
19:50This is precisely Jasmine's plan.
19:57A snake in the cradle.
19:59You do as you wish, but do not trust her.
20:06Jean.
20:07Jean, I'm going to walk Lily and Charlie over to the pub,
20:11and I'm going to be straight back, OK?
20:13So, just stay here.
20:15Don't go anywhere.
20:16Please.
20:16Help me find my scarf, and then we can leg it before she comes out the loo.
20:31I'm so sorry.
20:32I'm mortified.
20:33Right.
20:35Linda, it's been years.
20:36How's old Mickey boy doing?
20:38He's dead.
20:41Oh, you're not going so soon.
20:44It's always lovely, bumping into old friends, but, um...
20:47Old friends?
20:49As if I was cool enough to be part of your pink lady posse.
20:52Oh, you had a pink posse?
20:54We were a group of girly girls who liked Jason Donovan and were in pink.
20:58Oh.
20:59Well, it's always nice to see a new face, especially one impersonating me.
21:04Listen, I'm so sorry.
21:05I didn't mean to offend.
21:05No worries.
21:07I'm flattered Linda remembers me.
21:09Her lot only used to give me the time of day to mock me.
21:13Some things never change.
21:15Hey, watch yourself.
21:40Sue yourself out, mate.
21:45That big one.
21:46Mm-hmm.
21:47You all right, mate?
22:13You're not looking too well.
22:17All right, come on.
22:19I'll look after you.
22:23Yeah.
22:26I'm going to try and get Charlie off,
22:28but just thanks again, families.
22:29Oh, Lily, listen, any time I've got to bomb out quickly.
22:33But, listen, good news,
22:34Jazz is going to crash on the sofa,
22:35which means you get a proper bed tonight.
22:37Lily, please don't.
22:39You do me a favour, will you?
22:40You're under my roof.
22:41I need you girls to play nice.
22:42Try and get along.
22:44Jazz, she is trying, all right?
22:46Catch you later.
22:46Yeah, but make yourself at home in the flat, OK?
22:49Did you get a good night's sleep?
22:50Yeah, yeah, kind of.
22:52I mean, apart from the foxes going out around the back.
22:54I'm sure it wasn't my dad and Denise.
22:57Yeah, sorry, that was a bad joke.
23:00Yeah.
23:00But to be fair, the walls are, like, proper thin.
23:03So you're telling me I need to buy earplugs for when Vinny comes over?
23:09Did he say something?
23:10Er, no, but I saw you on New Year's.
23:14Ah, you got the full firelight display, didn't you?
23:17Yeah, it was a big surprise.
23:20In every sense.
23:22But it was a one-off, OK?
23:23We're not becoming you and Harry.
23:24Oh, erm, me and Harry, we're...
23:28We're done.
23:31He's got a lot of demons that he needs to face before me, so...
23:35Yep.
23:37What's wrong?
23:55Big man can't handle a cocktail?
23:58Do you remember when you had me locked up tripping off my nuts?
24:03No?
24:04You was an Ibiza with your family, weren't you?
24:10Meanwhile, my whole life has been ripped apart.
24:14I've lost my girl, my old man.
24:17I nearly snuffed it myself.
24:20But you...
24:22You just swan about without a scratch.
24:28At least time you knew what hell felt like.
24:34Harry, I know you're in there.
24:41I can see the light under the door, mate.
24:44Harry!
24:49Bill, how can I help you?
24:51You've forgotten, haven't you?
24:53What?
24:53I've got a Chinese...
24:56There's a dozen prawn balls in here.
24:59I've got egg fried rice.
25:00Oh.
25:01Beef and oyster sauce, chicken chow mein,
25:03and prawn crackers!
25:06Yeah, that sounds like a lovely spread, mate,
25:08but I've got a few more motors to do.
25:09Nah.
25:11Well, I'll tell you what.
25:13I'll give the kids a bell, tell them to come over.
25:14All right, all right, all right, I'll come.
25:16Yeah?
25:17Yeah.
25:18Good boy.
25:18Lookin' swish in here.
25:29Anna, thanks for my mum for today.
25:30Careful.
25:31Good, cos I'm starving.
25:33Yeah, I thought Dad was having dinner with us.
25:34Well, Uncle Vinny's errands must be holding him up.
25:38Uncle Vinny hasn't told him to do anything.
25:41So where's he been all day?
25:44When was the last time you saw him?
25:45This morning, I think he was a bit cut up about that adoption stuff.
25:50Dad's phone's off.
25:51Right, er, well, I'll pop out and see if he's local, then.
25:56Food, you can wait, I can give you a hand.
25:58What is the drama?
25:59Dad's been up loads of times with his phone off.
26:01Yeah, there's no drama.
26:02Just, er, quicker he's back,
26:04the quicker we can all have dinner together.
26:06As a family.
26:07Yeah.
26:08Yeah, I'll come with.
26:09Mike, don't touch the food, yeah?
26:10I'm definitely eating.
26:12Who is that?
26:38There is no help here, son.
26:57No!
26:58No!
26:59No!
27:00No!
