00:01Who was you?
00:03I didn't mean to kill him.
00:04You did it. You killed Anthony. Why would you do that?
00:06I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry.
00:09You don't know what it's been like for me. I can't go to prison.
00:11Now Zoe's rotting in a cell.
00:13The summit that you did and she's scared for her life.
00:15You said you weren't going to gross me up. I'll run away again.
00:17I'll run away and you're never going to find me.
00:19Why did you say it was Chrissy when it wasn't?
00:20Because she deserves everything that she gets.
00:24I just wanted to find my mom.
00:26Oh Jasmine, come here, darling. Come here.
00:28Listen, listen to me. I promise I won't gross you up, alright?
00:31Somebody doesn't want to see you behind bars. I just want to get her out of there.
00:35How?
00:35I don't know.
00:37You wanted me to confess. You said you were going to protect me.
00:40This is too much for me to take in.
00:44Come and sit down. Sit down.
00:47Right. Tell me exactly what happened.
00:52I came here. I came here to tell Zoe that I was her daughter.
00:56And then I saw Anthony standing over her body.
01:01Like she was lying on the floor.
01:03And he was so angry.
01:05My poor girl.
01:06I didn't know what to...
01:08He didn't know I was here.
01:10So I took my phone out and I started filming him.
01:15I thought he was going to hit her again. It was horrible.
01:18Did you help her?
01:19No. Because he saw me.
01:21And when he saw me, he came at me.
01:23And so I ran into the kitchen and I grabbed the salt lamp thing and I hit him on the
01:28head with it.
01:29And then when he fell on the floor...
01:32When he fell on the floor, I knew what I'd done. I knew I'd killed him.
01:35It was self-defense.
01:37We can get the lamp. We can get the lamp and then we can plot it on Chrissie.
01:40Because you said you'd let her take the blame for this, right?
01:42I don't know. Just slow down.
01:43What do you mean you have to help me?
01:45You must have been so scared.
01:47Yeah. That's why I ran away.
01:49I must have missed you by seconds. I came up.
01:51Found Zoe unconscious. She woke up. We see Anthony dead.
01:55She thought she'd killed him.
01:59I couldn't have planned it if I tried. I mean, I didn't mean for this to happen.
02:02Oh, I know.
02:03But if anyone's to blame you, it's Anthony for attacking Zoe.
02:05Yeah, you would have killed her.
02:07You would have killed her if I didn't stop him.
02:10Oh, come on. I know. I know, darling.
02:12Thank you, my darling.
02:19Hey, all right. Um...
02:21Louis, what's that say? Sorry.
02:23Can I shram in?
02:25Olly, do you want to see Louis?
02:28All right, bring him in.
02:34I'm very sorry for being horrible.
02:37I mean it this time.
02:38I'm ashamed I treated you like that.
02:41Thank you. I accept your apology.
02:44Good boy.
02:46I'm sorry to you too, Mrs. Cartel.
02:53If you've hurt him again, I'll call the police, okay?
02:58Why don't you sit with Olly and Annie while I have a quick chat with your granddad?
03:02Why don't we?
03:08It's all right.
03:10I've had word with Bill as well, so it won't give your mum any more grief.
03:15Look, just like that, it's all forgotten.
03:18Kids have better grudges, do they?
03:22Um...
03:23Do you fancy having a drink this evening?
03:26What, just you and me?
03:28No, you, me, mum and Ian.
03:30Of course just you and me.
03:32We owe it to Annie to be the parent she deserves.
03:35Uh, yeah.
03:36Yeah, sounds lovely.
03:38Good.
03:49Any news?
03:51She's up there alone with Cat at this moment.
03:54Cat's a fool to be left alone with her.
03:57I'm going up.
03:57We could stay here.
03:59You're here to clear your name, not get a new charge of GBH.
04:05Vicky.
04:07Chrissy.
04:09I haven't seen you since you killed my dad and buried him in the barrel store.
04:13How do you keep him?
04:14I'll serve my time.
04:16Yeah, well, Sharon might have forgiven you.
04:18I haven't.
04:19Thought you'd see, uh, survivors of abusive men be punished for the rest of their lives, would you?
04:25My dad is not here to defend himself!
04:27I get it.
04:28It might be the same if someone killed my dad.
04:31Then my dad wasn't anything like Den Watts.
04:35We've got a team, you and me.
04:36No.
04:38No.
04:39I'm not going to apologise for defending me and my friends from a man who was trying to kill us
04:44all.
04:47Whatever.
04:49Look, this has been lovely, but, um, I think I'll have more fun at the wake.
04:55I'll join you.
05:02Come on, Kat.
05:06Hey, hey, hey, Sam.
05:07Have you seen Jasmine?
05:09Kat said she'd only take a minute.
05:11Uh, I reckon it's to do with Zoe's trial.
05:14Why?
05:14Do you know something we don't?
05:15You can't have that one Jasmine here with me, man.
05:19Yeah, I know, Pops.
05:20Just give him a minute and she'll be back now, yeah?
05:30Do you all right there, Granny?
05:32Are we going on a date or are we joining the First Day Murder Club?
05:34It's not a date.
05:36Mm-hmm.
05:36This is two platonic co-parents having a drink to talk about being platonic co-parents.
05:42Yeah, no, you're right.
05:42I shouldn't tease.
05:43I'm Shaffirani, though.
05:45Tease away.
05:46I'm taking my lead from my gorgeous son, who shows me how to live with humility and optimism
05:50every day.
05:51No, Mum.
05:52Talking about Ollie.
05:53Oh, the cheek of it.
05:55I thank you for the nudge.
05:57Now, Annie deserves a mum and dad who get along.
05:59I need to make some sort of effort with Max.
06:02And who says a man and a woman can't just be friends?
06:11You all right?
06:16Oh, hello.
06:17Thank you, Trudy.
06:18Linda's going to love those.
06:20Great job.
06:21Keep the change.
06:22Take care.
06:23Take care.
06:26Take care.
06:28Yeah.
06:31I understand why you didn't go to the police.
06:33She thought you murdered Anthony, but it was self-defense.
06:36Yeah, but isn't that still a life sentence?
06:37You've got it on video.
06:38It changes everything.
06:41I'm not risking it.
06:42I don't want to spend the rest of my life in jail.
06:44Oh, and so he does.
06:46But...
06:47But what?
06:48You're happy with her going down for your crime?
06:50No.
06:51So you was going to confess at some point?
06:52Yes.
06:53When?
06:54Eh?
06:54Before or after she'd been sent down for life?
06:56I didn't have a plan, all right?
06:58I panicked.
06:59I didn't have time to think.
07:00I haven't been able to think straight since it happened.
07:02Okay.
07:03You ran away from Anthony and Zoe.
07:05I do get that.
07:07Yeah.
07:08But then you came back an hour later to tell Zoe that you're her daughter.
07:14You looked Zoe in the eyes and you ripped her heart out, blaming her for abandoning you and your brother
07:20in hospital.
07:21So?
07:21No.
07:21But you didn't let on that you knew Anthony's body was upstairs.
07:25I panicked.
07:26Keep saying you panicked.
07:27But the girl that sat in front of me and Zoe, she wasn't panicking.
07:30She was cold and clear-headed.
07:33You tortured Zoe, right?
07:35For abandoning you when you knew she was already messed up about Anthony.
07:38It all happened so fast, I didn't have time to think, okay?
07:42Kidding Anthony was an accident.
07:44Yeah, I know.
07:45It got out of control.
07:46But you coming back to the scene of the crime an hour later, that was your choice.
07:52You chose to turn the screw on Zoe knowing that she was going through the worst moment of her life.
07:57It wasn't like that.
07:58Was this little orphan jazzy sob story, was it a performance?
08:01No.
08:02You tormented Zoe for months.
08:05You scared the life out of her.
08:06I told you that was Chrissie's idea.
08:08Okay, she manipulated me.
08:10How can I believe a word you say now?
08:13Huh?
08:13Earlier?
08:14Earlier you thanked me for saving Zoe's life.
08:18Now what?
08:20Do you think I'm some kind of monster?
08:22The answer's obvious, isn't it?
08:24What are you going to do with her?
08:32Oh, thank you.
08:33But my birthday was actually last week.
08:36Okay.
08:37Nice try.
08:39Right.
08:40So, sorry, what are we actually waiting for?
08:42Look, can we just wait for George to arrive, please?
08:44Yeah?
08:46Gee.
08:47I'm so sorry.
08:48I forgot your birthday.
08:49Yeah, you did.
08:51Don't worry.
08:52You did miss a good night, though.
08:53I bet.
08:55Isn't that nice?
08:58Yeah.
08:59These are lots of both of us.
09:02Oh, darling.
09:03You all right, mate?
09:04You came.
09:05I wasn't expecting you.
09:06Two minutes, you said, yeah?
09:08Yeah, yeah, yeah.
09:09Are you ready?
09:10Always ready.
09:12And action.
09:14Oh, right.
09:15We're actually doing this, are we?
09:17Okay, yes, yes.
09:18So, as you know, George and I come from the hospital.
09:23No, no, no, no.
09:23This is not a gender reveal party.
09:25This is for George, okay?
09:27It wasn't around last time, so just throw him a bone, please.
09:32Excuse me.
09:33There you go.
09:35Oh, yeah.
09:36Yeah.
09:37Uh, Nicola and I would like to announce that we are expecting...
09:44Woo-hoo!
09:46A girl!
09:49Congratulations!
09:51Oh, another baby sister!
09:53Oh, Anna's going to be really happy.
09:55You mean that, Von?
09:56Baby sister?
09:57Yeah.
09:58I'm happy for you.
09:59Thanks, mate.
10:01Um, is he all right?
10:03Yeah.
10:03Yeah, it's progress.
10:05Come here.
10:06Oh, a little girl, eh?
10:09It's not going to feel real, isn't it?
10:10I know.
10:12So, er...
10:13Is there anything else you want to tell us?
10:16Er...
10:17No.
10:17That's it.
10:18No?
10:19Yes.
10:20Because if you two are going to be more than, you know, co-parents to this kid...
10:25Could you just tell my dad first, please?
10:27Tell him.
10:27To tell him, Harry.
10:29Did you stop filming, coach?
10:30Yeah.
10:32Right, well, I guess the big question is...
10:35Oh, thank you.
10:36Erm, what are we going to call her?
10:38Yeah.
10:39What about Ali?
10:41Short for Alison.
10:42Ali?
10:43Yeah, that's short for Alison.
10:44It's nothing to do with Muhammad Ali.
10:46What?
10:48How'd you?
10:55Hey, you all right?
11:00Look at you.
11:01What?
11:01Made me feel like a white scruffy cow.
11:04And a tie.
11:04Nah.
11:05It's a special occasion, isn't it?
11:07Yeah.
11:09Got you these.
11:11Oh.
11:12Oh, wow.
11:13Got you.
11:13Oh, shh, shh.
11:14No.
11:15Nah, yeah.
11:16You're really...
11:16Let's see.
11:18Right.
11:19A little drink.
11:20What do you want?
11:21Sunny soft, though?
11:22Erm, I'm fine with water.
11:23What's barquina?
11:24Just tap... tap's mine.
11:26Just tap water?
11:27Yeah.
11:27No, just tap.
11:31No.
11:31She didn't kill him.
11:33You don't believe that.
11:34She told me where she was when it happened, and I believe her.
11:38You lying little...
11:39Don't!
11:40You touch me!
11:40Crissie!
11:41Crissie, don't!
11:42Don't!
11:43You're still on parole.
11:48It's time to go.
11:49I thought you wanted to clear your name.
11:51Well, that's clearly not gonna happen.
11:53Blood is thicker than water.
11:54It ain't like that.
11:55She did not kill him.
11:57You are on borrowed time.
11:59Get lost!
11:59I wish I'd never met you.
12:01Oh, the feeling's mutual, sweetheart.
12:04Say bye to Alfie, right?
12:06If you and the boys ever need me, just give me a call, yeah?
12:08Yeah, cheers.
12:09No, you're gonna need more than Uncle Jake to protect those boys with her around.
12:12Zoe's inside.
12:13She's gonna poison your family from the inside out.
12:16Bye, Crissie.
12:17Let's go.
12:24So, Annie's sat on a loo in the B&B, and she calls out, I'm finished!
12:29And then she asks one of the guests to come and wipe her bum.
12:32Hmm.
12:34That's a classic.
12:34Yeah!
12:35I said to Mum, they'd better not put that on TripAdvisor.
12:40I was thinking, erm, that maybe you could pick up Annie from nursery on Tuesdays and...
12:47Sh-sh-sh-sh.
12:47Listen to me.
12:48I think I've been nervous, aren't I?
12:50No, no, no, no, no, no.
12:52What are you doing?
12:54Why not?
12:55Because I don't want to.
12:58Why?
13:01I-I thought I made it clear that we were here to talk about Annie, you know, co-parenting.
13:05Yeah, but you ain't talked about anything else.
13:07What?
13:08As friends, though.
13:09Yeah, but that's how the best relationship starts, isn't it?
13:12I've spent ages listening to you talking about bum-wiping.
13:14I mean, if that ain't a friend, I don't know what is.
13:17Don't you care about your own daughter?
13:18Yeah, of course I do.
13:24I'm sorry.
13:28Max.
13:30Do you know what it took for me to kiss you last week?
13:35I don't go on dates.
13:36I don't kiss men.
13:39There's been no love in my life since Mick died.
13:41Yeah, I know that.
13:42So why did you ruin it by lying?
13:45I didn't lie, didn't I?
13:47I'm just a bit slow till in the truth, baby.
13:52I don't want us to fall out, all right?
13:53I want you to be part of Annie's life.
13:56But I need to be absolutely clear.
13:58There will never, ever be an us.
14:02I can't risk it for me or Annie.
14:13I have some news too,
14:14but I don't have a balloon to pop.
14:17Okay, mate.
14:17What is it?
14:18My old flat is available.
14:20I'll move it back to number 89C.
14:23Hey, Kojo,
14:24I know you want your independence,
14:27but I don't think that's a good idea.
14:29I don't think that's right.
14:30Yeah, mate.
14:30Nothing but bad things happen there.
14:32Yeah, it's full of ghosts.
14:33I don't believe in ghosts.
14:35No, no, it's a saying, Kojo.
14:37It means that bad things happen there.
14:38Stop it.
14:40You're wrong, Kwame.
14:41I don't want to give up on my independence.
14:44No, I get that,
14:45but I could find you a new flat.
14:48I don't want a new flat.
14:50I want my old flat.
14:51I know which floorboard creaks.
14:53I know how long to run the tap
14:55before the water gets hot.
14:56It's my decision.
14:57I'm moving back.
14:59Kojo, mate.
15:04Gina.
15:07Happy birthday.
15:12Go ahead.
15:13Thank you for defending me.
15:15I didn't tell Chrissie
15:16because I want to keep it contained,
15:18but I ain't a mug.
15:19I never said you were.
15:21Where's that video you took?
15:22I meant take it to the police.
15:23Why?
15:23I can't be framed, Chrissie.
15:24It was self-defence.
15:25We don't need to.
15:26You said you wanted me
15:27to be a part of your family.
15:29Why run the risk of going to trial?
15:31Just show me the phone.
15:32I told you.
15:32I'm on your side.
15:35I think my bags don't sleaze.
15:37Go get it.
15:38Listen,
15:40don't hate me for this,
15:41but I'm not letting you out my sight.
15:45Jasmine's out of control.
15:47She'll get what she deserves soon enough.
15:49I don't care about her.
15:52Little people,
15:54little houses,
15:55little broken dreams.
15:57Let's go home now.
15:59Together.
16:00Why?
16:02What's changed?
16:03You and I,
16:04we're great
16:05when we're on the same team
16:06fighting a war,
16:07but in real life,
16:08we're not good.
16:10Don't we deserve another chance?
16:11I thought so.
16:1219 years.
16:14We set up a business,
16:15got home together,
16:17and then you went and conspired
16:18to get me arrested for a murder
16:20I didn't commit.
16:21not trusting you
16:22was the biggest mistake
16:24of my life.
16:26Second biggest,
16:28Jake.
16:28You murdered your own brother.
16:32Why would you say that?
16:35I never wanted to come back here,
16:37Jake.
16:38You tricked me into it.
16:39That really hurts.
16:41And I intend
16:42to make it up to you.
16:44How?
16:44I've got to see Phil first.
16:46Phil?
16:48Go and get yourself a drink.
16:50I'll be an hour.
16:51Tops.
17:07Where is it?
17:09I don't know.
17:09I don't know everyone.
17:13Trice,
17:13has anyone handed a bag in?
17:14What colour?
17:15What colour is it?
17:16Black.
17:16Black.
17:17No, sorry.
17:26Oscar,
17:27Oscar,
17:27have you seen my bag?
17:27It's got my phone in it.
17:29That's all I get.
17:31You sent a text
17:32and left it.
17:33What have you done
17:34you couldn't say to my face?
17:36That was not a good time
17:37at the pain.
17:39Trice,
17:39bring the bell for us.
17:42Has anyone seen
17:43a black bag?
17:44Is that it?
17:45No,
17:46that's mine
17:46and it's dark navy.
17:47It goes in my coat.
17:48It sure looks black.
17:49No,
17:49I'd say there's some
17:50midnight blue.
17:51Siobhan the Bond
17:52in the high street
17:52said it's dark navy
17:53and she knows my coat.
17:54Look,
17:54please,
17:54can you just lock
17:55this black handbag?
17:56It's really important.
18:00Jasmine!
18:03Jasmine!
18:06Jasmine!
18:08Jasmine!
18:19I think you left this
18:21at the bar.
18:21Oh,
18:22thanks.
18:23Most of drag queens

18:45Are you friends with her?
18:46No,
18:47not really.
18:48I ran off with her
18:48like about 200 years ago.
18:51I'll begrudge that one.
18:52Doesn't she just?
18:54I'm Cindy.
18:55Cindy Beale.
18:56Hey,
18:57Neil.
18:57You're related to Ian.
18:59By marriage.
19:01Unfortunately.
19:03So,
19:04what brings you
19:05to my glorious establishment?
19:07I'm,
19:08um,
19:08I'm arranging a surprise
19:09for someone.
19:10Oh,
19:10right.
19:11Well,
19:11if you want shampoos,
19:12party poppers,

19:17Oh,
19:17I remember that quote.
19:19True friends,
19:21they stab him in the front.
19:23I like that one.
19:32So,
19:32you didn't catch her there?
19:33How do you see her sitting here?
19:35Don't start on me.
19:36Sorry,
19:37Nan,
19:37but that little witch
19:38has been mugging me right off.
19:40She told me she had a video
19:40on her phone
19:41proving that she killed
19:42Antonine in self-defense,
19:43but she lied to me.
19:44She lied
19:44just to get away from me.
19:45So Zoe's still being done?
19:47Yeah,
19:47and looking at her life sentence.
19:50All this for nothing.
19:51I can't believe I'm saying this,
19:52but you should have listened
19:53to Chrissie from the start.
19:54After what she did
19:55to Zoe over den,
19:56it was like
19:57trusting a cobra
19:58not to bite me.
20:01Let her down.
20:02She needs me the most.
20:04Call old Bill now.
20:06Get them out
20:07looking for Jasmine.
20:08No,
20:08Zoe wouldn't want that.
20:09If she knew
20:10that Jasmine killed him,
20:11she'd confess to the murder
20:12just to protect her.
20:13What,
20:14doing a life stretch
20:14is going to make up
20:15for abandoning her?
20:16I can't believe
20:17what I'm hearing here.
20:18Jasmine,
20:19that little kid,
20:20is running rings
20:21around the entire
20:21Slater family
20:22and you're just sitting
20:24here letting her
20:24get further away.
20:25What can I do?
20:26Kat,
20:27you've got to do
20:27the right thing
20:28for your family
20:29and for the Trumans.
20:32You've got to fight
20:32fire with fire.
20:39My granddaughter
20:40couldn't bear to spend
20:41two minutes with me
20:42at her own
20:43father's wake.
20:45I'm sorry.
20:47You went to the land?
20:49Weeks are full of
20:49singing and music.
20:51It's a celebration
20:52of life,
20:53family,
20:54and hope.
20:56There isn't a shred
20:58of hope
20:58in my heart,
21:00Dilly.
21:13That's your drink.
21:14Don't be a minute,
21:15Dad.
21:18Many rivers to cross
21:23But I can't seem to find
21:27My way over
21:34Wondering and lost
21:37As I travel along
21:43Why the cliffs took to a bird
21:48Many rivers to cross
21:53And it's only my will
21:56That keeps me alive
22:01Well done.
22:03It's a good thing you've done.
22:04Yeah.
22:07Can you explain a moment
22:08to me, Dad,
22:09because I get really
22:10confused?
22:11Yeah.
22:12No.
22:13You and me both.
22:18Thanks.
22:20You came back.
22:23I, I, I,
22:24just boys.
22:28I thought you'd scarper.
22:29I nearly did.
22:30I've gone and lost a phone
22:31with all of the evidence
22:32that this was self-defense
22:33as if it ever existed.
22:36Why'd you come back anyway?
22:37Because you're right.
22:39I don't want to spend
22:39my life running away.
22:41I, I owe it to Zoe.
22:44But look, we don't need
22:46my phone anymore.
22:47Okay, because I went
22:48to get this.
22:50I was to let you use.
22:52I can wipe my print off of this
22:54and then we can plant it on Chrissy
22:56and we can prove that
22:57this was her.
22:59I thought you'd be happier.
23:01We're going to get Zoe back.
23:14You took your time.
23:19Who are you calling?
23:20The police.
23:22I'm going to report you
23:23for killing Danny.
23:24Why?
23:25Because I want you to feel
23:27as betrayed as I do.
23:28But at least I'm doing it
23:29to your face.
23:30That's what real friends do.
23:31Chrissy.
23:32Chrissy, don't do this.
23:34He was my brother.
23:35It was an accident, all right?
23:37It was the worst moment
23:38of my life.
23:39I don't care.
23:40Yes.
23:40Yes, you do care.
23:42You love me
23:43and we love each other.
23:45What are you doing?
23:46Chrissy Watts.
23:50Will you marry me?
23:53Are you mad?
23:54You just betrayed me.
23:56No.
23:57I was protecting my family.
23:59I was your family.
24:00And you still are.
24:02Look, I'm sorry I hurt you.
24:04I'm sorry I broke your trust.
24:06You are the only one
24:07that matters to me.
24:08Please.
24:09Please, will you marry me?
24:15I love you too, Jake.
24:19Yeah.
24:20Yeah, we'll marry you.
24:31If you didn't call the old bills,
24:33who were they coming for?
24:36Cat or Jasmine must have
24:38grasped me up.
24:40Bring it on.
24:41Or we could just do one.
24:43Come?
24:44Come on.
24:45Come on.
25:14You didn't, I'm sorry.
25:15Are they here for me?
25:17There's so many lies.
25:18All that don't make sense.
25:18I thought you'd done a run-up.
25:20I came back.
25:26Jasmine Fisher.
25:27Hey, this is the son's wig.
25:29She's over here.
25:30No.
25:31Jasmine Fisher.
25:32Yes.
25:32You repeat what you told the operator?
25:34She's confessed to killing Anthony Truman.
25:39Do you have a response to these accusations?
25:44Right, Jasmine Fisher, I'm arresting you on suspicion of the murder of Anthony Truman.
25:47You don't have to say anything, but it may harm your defence.
25:50If you do not mention me in question, some of you like rely on in court.
25:53And if you do say, maybe give it in evidence.
25:57Don't preserve us.
25:59Some of you didn't do it.
26:00There's a video.
26:01There's a video that proves what really happened.
26:03It's on my phone in my black bag, okay?
26:05You need to find it and hand it in to the police.
26:06Zoe will never forgive you for this.
26:08I don't care as long as she's free.
26:10What's happening, Kat?
26:11What's going on?
26:12Kat, what's happening?
26:13No, no, no, no.
26:14Kat!
26:14Kat!
