00:24Yeah, Jodie's special, that.
00:26Actually, chocolate biscuits.
00:27You know it.
00:27It's her.
00:29Hey, I could, er, walk you partway to school, if you like.
00:31Take David out with me.
00:33Have you seen his cheekbones?
00:36No.
00:36Should I have?
00:37They're off the scale and well, Jen.
00:41Oh, morning.
00:42Morning.
00:44You off the hospital?
00:45Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna go and swap with David.
00:46Right, are you sure you've got everything you need?
00:48Yeah, she's fine, don't worry.
00:50Good luck.
00:50Yes.
00:51Right, come on, you.
00:52Don't want you being late.
00:53Tell David that he's at half six, will you?
00:55Will do.
00:55See you later.
00:56See ya.
00:57Right.
01:00Come on, David.
01:01Let's go.
01:07Yeah, well, thanks for letting me stay at Shea's, Shea's Reno.
01:11No problem.
01:12Vernerino.
01:14Well, I'm not being rude, but I'm the one who does the funnish round here.
01:17Yeah, fair enough.
01:18Well, if it goes all right with the pigeons.
01:21Yeah, I've got a company coming round later to get them out of the loft safely and that.
01:25Well, have a good look.
01:26Thanks, love.
01:27Ta-ra.
01:30Morning.
01:31Heyya.
01:33That was late when we were off the show.
01:35Shift your face on there.
01:36What?
01:37Chesney and Bernie?
01:38He's a son-in-law.
01:39Really?
01:40Don't you see them.
01:41What?
01:42No chance.
01:43Trust me, I see things others don't.
01:45Is that right?
01:47Stick with me, girl.
01:48I'll teach her everything there is to know.
01:50How come you haven't seen your jumpers on back to club then?
01:53Nice try.
01:55Come on.
02:01Do you have to chew so loudly?
02:06Oh, is there anything more vile than that?
02:09We can't all be like you, Trace, and swallow our prey whole.
02:13Guys, it's not even 9am.
02:15You all right, Dad?
02:16Yeah.
02:17Are you sure sugar muffin?
02:19No?
02:20I don't know.
02:23I take it back there is something more vile.
02:25Yeah, well, we all need a bit of love and affection, don't we?
02:28You should try it sometime, Trace.
02:30What, with Steve?
02:31Been there, done that, left incredibly underwhelmed.
02:35Brilliant.
02:36How long has it been?
02:38Quite the dry spell, hey?
02:40Still, I suspect you've got your nice snuggly pillow
02:42and your old posters of bros to keep you going.
02:46Give me that toast.
02:47I'm going to shove it so far down her throat
02:49that she's going to be sneezing soldiers.
02:51Kinky.
02:53All right, enough.
02:55Has it actually occurred to anyone
02:57that I might not be okay?
02:58What's the matter?
03:00Me dad.
03:01I don't know whether I go and see him or not.
03:03Oh, sorry.
03:04But he is poorly.
03:05Yeah, but he's not on death's door, is he?
03:07Yeah, well, that doesn't matter.
03:09If you don't deserve a second chance when you're sick, when do you?
03:12Oh, well, you would say that, wouldn't you?
03:15Never mind a second chance with you.
03:16More like a hundredth.
03:18Well, you'd know.
03:19Excuse me, this is about dad.
03:22Steve.
03:23Don't go and see Jim.
03:25He's given you nothing but grief.
03:27Steve.
03:28Do go and see him.
03:30You've only got one dad.
03:32You've never even met Jim.
03:33What would you know?
03:34Well, I know what it's like to be kept away from a child.
03:37Yeah, for good reason in your case and Jim's.
03:40Dad.
03:41For what it's worth, the truth is, you don't owe Grandpa anything.
03:45But you do owe it to yourself to not have any regrets.
03:56Did you pick up the poo bags?
03:57No.
03:58I swear I told you to.
04:00No, you never.
04:01Oh, well, come on, empty out your bag then.
04:03Why, what for?
04:04Someone to pick this up with.
04:05No way.
04:06Come on, just give us some paper from one of your exercise books or something.
04:10Paper?
04:10How old are you?
04:11We don't write in books.
04:13We use laptops.
04:14Here's one of your gloves then.
04:16As if, right.
04:17Look at the time.
04:18I'm going to be late.
04:19Lily!
04:22Come on then, I won't tell if you don't.
04:25Er, excuse me.
04:26You're not going to leave that, are you?
04:29Forgot me bags.
04:31Oh, okay.
04:32Er, hang on.
04:34There you go.
04:35Take that.
04:36Yeah, I mean, some poor kid could have trodden in that.
04:38There's a play park right here.
04:40Is there?
04:42Hadn't noticed.
04:43Roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms.
04:45Yeah, to tell you, I have no dog double.
04:46I really do think you should see something like that.
04:48It's a list of things you can catch from dog lock.
04:51But you have a lovely day now, won't you?
04:53You can keep the hanky.
04:55You can keep the hanky.
04:57Oh.
05:04Come on, you.
05:07Judy!
05:10Judy!
05:13Hiya!
05:14Hi.
05:15Oh, sorry, I'm really late.
05:17Lauren.
05:18Ollie, seriously, I need to...
05:19Do you fancy coming to the bistro tonight?
05:24Oh, please don't make me say it again.
05:27Well, why don't you get better?
05:29Send you a text.
05:30Well?
05:32Morning, all.
05:33Morning.
05:34Hiya.
05:37What's this?
05:39What's what?
05:40This.
05:41I'm just waiting to see if Lauren will come to the bistro tonight.
05:44For?
05:45A date.
05:46Oliver.
05:47Margaret?
05:48Yeah.
05:49Yeah?
05:50Yeah.
05:51The woman is a mother.
05:55What do you mean by that?
05:56Don't mothers get nights off too?
05:58Didn't happen in my day.
05:59It's a strong no from me.
06:01I mean, seriously, now.
06:03Who look after Frankie?
06:05Well, if you're offering.
06:06I most certainly am not.
06:08Well, Ollie, it's fine.
06:09I'll text Nina so she can babysit.
06:11Great.
06:12Great.
06:13Well, I need to go to the suppliers.
06:15If she says anything, don't listen to her word.
06:17See you about six?
06:19Yeah.
06:19Cool.
06:20Cool.
06:28You know, you can just come out and say it.
06:31What's that, love?
06:33Why you don't rate me and Ollie?
06:36Look, it's not you specifically.
06:39It's just that I don't approve of workplace relationships.
06:43They can get messy.
06:46I suppose I should be grateful that Ollie is moving on from Dee Dee.
06:51She was a lawyer, you know.
06:54Yeah, I know.
06:57You and Ollie, you're very different people from very different sides of the tracks.
07:03He has so much going for him.
07:05Whereas I work in a backstreet boozer, is that it?
07:07My backstreet boozer, where I draw up the weekly rota.
07:22All right, mate?
07:23Yeah.
07:25Flat battery.
07:26I'll get one of the cabs to come round and jump after.
07:28I can whiz my car around.
07:29I've got jump leads in the boot.
07:30What?
07:30No, don't trouble yourself.
07:31It's no trouble.
07:33Maybe it's a sign anyway.
07:35Saying what exactly?
07:37Saying go and visit me dad in hospital, ain't a good move after all.
07:41I see.
07:42Ah, come on.
07:43Visiting your dad when he's poor, he's always the right thing to do, is it not?
07:46No, you haven't met me dead.
07:48Mate, I know it's complicated.
07:50Yeah, and the rest.
07:52Listen, thanks anyway.
07:53Come on, I'll drive you.
07:54Nah, it's honestly.
07:55Seriously, it's no trouble.
07:56Anyway, it won't sit right in my conscience, keeping a man from his sick father,
08:00no matter how complicated it all is.
08:04What's his or her name?
08:06David.
08:08Full name David the dog.
08:09If it's her people don't get confused, he's a cat.
08:12Well, it could happen, couldn't it?
08:14Is he yours?
08:15No, no, I'm just looking after him.
08:18I like dogs.
08:20I know you do.
08:22When mum wouldn't let me get a real one, me and you, we'd be an imaginary one.
08:26Do you remember?
08:27Of course I do.
08:29Spike!
08:31I've missed you so much.
08:34You too.
08:38Hey, you, shouldn't you be in school?
08:42Come on.
08:43How'd you find me?
08:45I saw you around this way the other day.
08:48I was on a school trip, and I tried to follow you,
08:51but the teachers were on at me to get back on the coach.
08:54Right.
08:56I don't understand why you left us.
08:58Do you not love us anymore?
09:00No, no, no, it's not that.
09:03You used to say we were the best kid you ever looked after.
09:06You were.
09:07So, why'd you go?
09:10Who?
09:15Well...
09:22Well...
09:23Oh, why are you scared of me?
09:25There's no need to be scared of me.
09:26That makes me so upset.
09:29Don't you dare.
09:36So you finally decided to see sense, then?
09:40Nice try with the gaslighting.
09:42I can smell the propane a mile off.
09:44What?
09:44You did this.
09:45No, I didn't.
09:46Now, listen.
09:47This is the first and last time I want to see you.
09:50You're breaking my heart.
09:52Well, I'll break a lot more than that if you don't stop whatever the hell it is you're playing at.
09:58I know full well it was you that broke into my place last night.
10:00No, I never have.
10:01Right, this is your only warning.
10:04Because next time, I'm going to go to the police.
10:07I think someone is making excuses to see me.
10:11No.
10:12No, I do not want to see you.
10:14I don't want to be anywhere near you.
10:16You make me skin crawl.
10:18You make me want to vomit.
10:20You make me want to boil me flaming head.
10:23Could I be any more clear?
10:25Now, do one.
10:27Bernie.
10:28Bernie, please!
10:32Who hurt you?
10:34Who made you into the cold-hearted little bitch that you were up?
10:39People like you.
10:42Now, get yourself back to Inverness while you've still got legs to do so.
11:09No worries.
11:11You don't get anything.
11:12No, I'm good.
11:14You want me to go, don't you?
11:16It's not like that.
11:17Well, what is it then?
11:21We can't see each other again.
11:23I don't understand.
11:25I shouldn't be saying any of this.
11:28Please.
11:30Please.
11:31Please.
11:33Okay.
11:33Listen, I'm in witness protection.
11:36What?
11:38Yeah.
11:40I saw this man get killed.
11:42Stabbed to death.
11:44Oh, my God.
11:45When?
11:45Where?
11:46Don't answer that.
11:47I can't.
11:48All I can say is that, well, I'm the prosecution's star witness.
11:53And that's why I had to get away.
11:56That's why I'm in hiding.
11:58I'm so sorry.
12:00It's fine.
12:01It is what it is.
12:03I was just trying to do the right thing by everyone.
12:06I had to get away to protect you and your sister.
12:09And I'm blowing your cover.
12:10And I'm putting you in danger and everyone else.
12:13Hey, calm down.
12:14You weren't to know.
12:16But I do need you to promise me something, Liv.
12:19You won't try and find me again.
12:21And you won't tell anyone about this.
12:23Not your mum, your dad, or even your sister.
12:26I won't.
12:27I'm hummus.
12:28I'll go now.
12:31Yeah.
12:32I think that's for the best.
12:34Take care of yourselves.
12:36And they let you have a dog?
12:39Oh, yeah.
12:40Like I said, it sounds really complicated.
12:42Oh, OK.
12:43Well, I'll see you soon.
12:44Hope to.
12:45Anyway.
12:46Bye.
12:49Hiya.
12:51Hi.
12:53Tessie from next door.
12:55Oh, sorry.
12:56Miles away.
12:57You all right?
12:58How are you doing?
12:58Yeah, yeah, good.
12:59Just, er, been brisky.
13:02Oh, very nice.
13:03Right, well, I'd best get him to the Red Red.
13:05How's the baby?
13:07Yeah.
13:08You know, just taking each day as it comes, really.
13:10What's that?
13:11Right, I've got to go.
13:12I don't want him pooping around here,
13:14not by a kiddie's play park, anyway.
13:16Yeah, no worries.
13:16It's the right problem around here, actually.
13:18Yeah, disgusting, innit?
13:19See you later.
13:20Laters.
13:29Sorry, is that weird?
13:30Yep.
13:31No, actually, it's quite comforting.
13:34You really don't want to go in there, do you?
13:36Oh, well, I do when I don't.
13:37What's stopping you?
13:38Me, Dad.
13:39All right, let's put it in another way.
13:41What brought you here in the first place?
13:43You did.
13:44You know what I mean.
13:45Look, I want to go in, you know, but,
13:47well, I need to go in because this could be
13:50your last chance.
13:51Yeah, but you're probably just going to spin me
13:53a load of lies and then do me head in.
13:55Ah, okay, I see.
13:56It's like that, is it?
13:58Sorry, mate.
14:00My only hope is that I've not repeated
14:01the same cycle with me own kids, you know?
14:03Come on.
14:05I've met your Amy.
14:06She's got a wiser head on her shoulders
14:07than you and Tracy put together.
14:08No offence.
14:11None taken.
14:11In fact, it was the least offensive thing
14:13you could have done.
14:14Well, that's what I'm here for.
14:17Come on, mate, tell me what to do
14:18and then I'll just do that.
14:20I wish I could, buddy.
14:21I wish I could.
14:27There you go.
14:28What are you doing?
14:31Checking.
14:32For?
14:33For ketchup.
14:34Well, I put loads in.
14:35I said none.
14:37No, you never?
14:38Yeah, I did.
14:39Is everything all right?
14:40Well, no, not really.
14:41Employee of the month here
14:42has smothered my balm in ketchup.
14:44What if I was allergic?
14:46Well, it's more likely that that
14:47would be allergic to you.
14:48Ladies, ladies, enough, Tracy.
14:50I will personally make you a fresh balm.
14:53Yes, you will.
14:54In the meantime, you will desist
14:56in addressing my staff in that manner.
14:58Oh, whatever.
15:00Actually, Roy, I meant to ask you something.
15:02Dad needs some rewiring done at the house.
15:04Would you recommend the electrician
15:05that you had in here?
15:06Yes.
15:07No, absolutely not.
15:08Excuse me.
15:09I was talking to the organ grinder.
15:11Well, you don't want him anywhere near your dad.
15:13All right, mate.
15:14Why not?
15:16Well, I'd just stay, uh...
15:18I'd just stay well clear.
15:19How are you?
15:22I will speak to Ken when I see you.
15:24Oh, right.
15:25OK.
15:28Bernie, I cannot tolerate slander in my cafe.
15:31Yeah, but it's not slander.
15:33It's the truth.
15:33I won't recommend him.
15:35Is Mal's electrical work not up to standard?
15:38It's not his electrics I'm worried about.
15:41Is there something I should know?
15:44Bernie.
15:47Well, I've just got a bad feeling.
15:49And if I were you, I'd stay far, far away.
15:59You look amazing.
16:01Seriously?
16:02Yeah, it's giving Margot Robbie.
16:05Oh, Pets.
16:07I just feel like my hair's too puffy
16:09and my lips are so glossy
16:11and my eyes are so bright.
16:12I mean, what if he hates it?
16:15We need sophisticated, not slapper.
16:19Er, where is all this coming from?
16:23Well, let's face it,
16:24people like him don't go out with people like me.
16:27He literally asks you out.
16:29Yeah, but he's a decent-looking lad,
16:31who's a chef, by the way,
16:33and he used to go out with a lawyer.
16:34Yeah, used to.
16:35Now he's going out with a hot spa maid in town.
16:37Yeah, well, I don't think Maggie's too happy by it.
16:40He's Nan.
16:41My boss.
16:42So what?
16:43But, see, I really need this job.
16:44Yeah?
16:46Go on the date with Ollie,
16:48and then, maybe one day,
16:51you might be landlady.
16:55Yeah.
16:57I don't think so.
17:01I'll have another orange juice in there
17:03when you're ready, please, Maggie.
17:04Orange juice?
17:06You really are single-handedly
17:08going to keep the wolf from the door
17:10in this place, aren't you?
17:11Go on, then.
17:12Throw us a pack to folks' questions.
17:14Can I tempt you to a vodka and orange juice?
17:17No, thank you.
17:18Gin and orange juice?
17:19It's 4.30 p.m., Maggie.
17:21Then what are you doing in a pub?
17:24Oh, aye, aye.
17:27You did say throw.
17:32Hiya, love.
17:33How did you get on?
17:35I'll give us a couple of paints to go with these, yeah?
17:36Cheers, mate.
17:37Well?
17:39Erm, I couldn't go in.
17:40Oh, no.
17:42I think I'm a coward.
17:44No.
17:44No, come here.
17:46Where have you been?
17:48Somewhere in nowhere, man.
17:51Oh, it's nice, man.
17:53I forgot your tzatziki.
17:54Oh, cheers, cheers.
17:55Did you just fall from the sky?
17:57Sorry?
17:58Only, you look like one of those trolley dollies that's about to give me a cup of warm shiraz and
18:03half a pack of peanuts.
18:04Ah.
18:04Well, he does.
18:05Look at his hat.
18:07No, no, I'm just a plain old kebab shop dolly, me.
18:10I ignore her, Chesney, and thanks for bringing this over.
18:12Yeah, you're welcome.
18:13I've been called worse.
18:14Usually it's Scott Tracey.
18:15Oh, I see that now.
18:17Oh, you walked into that one, Ches.
18:19I see ya.
18:21Thunderbirds are go!
18:23You're not funny.
18:24Oh, but I am, Pat.
18:26I am hilarious.
18:28And you still haven't answered my question.
18:30Where have you been?
18:32Don't you worry your head about it, ma.
18:45Here you go.
18:47I don't tell very much.
18:48You did say two glasses, didn't you?
18:49Oh, yes, please.
18:52On the way, are they?
18:54No.
18:55Er, cancelled.
18:56Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
18:58Guess I won't be needing this after all.
19:01You know what we do for people who've been stood up?
19:04Bring out the bells and shout shame, shame, shame.
19:07No.
19:08No, we give them a dessert on the house.
19:10Thanks.
19:44How are you?
19:45Hiya.
19:47How's my gorgeous baby niece doing?
19:49Er, yeah.
19:50Gorgeous as ever, despite the tubes.
19:54Nah, I saw the photos you sent.
19:55She's working them.
19:57Well, let's just hope they're working for her.
20:00Have you had a good day?
20:02Yeah, living the dream, me.
20:04Cleaning, shopping, dog poop picking up in.
20:09That's Lily's job, that.
20:10Well, it wasn't.
20:11Not when she was giving me her best not-today-satan face.
20:15I think that's just a general aura.
20:17Oh, no.
20:18She's lovely.
20:21Yeah, to be fair, she's been really supportive with the whole Harper situation, so can't complain.
20:27Yeah, she has.
20:29You've done a really good job with that one.
20:32Cheers.
20:33Well, I didn't put any tea on, because Shona said you were cooking.
20:36Yeah, well, work my fingers to the bone in that chippy queue.
20:40Oh!
20:41I'll plate up.
20:43Gravy all over.
20:46Come again?
20:47Do you want your gravy dolloped all over your fish and chips?
20:50This is a dipping household, it's not a dolloping one.
20:55Gravy all over.
20:57You have any idea what that'll do with me chips?
20:59Make them all soggy.
21:00Sauce.
21:02It's all right.
21:03Apology accepted.
21:04Right, I'll just dip to the toilet, I'll be back in a minute.
21:07All right, well, hurry up, you don't want it getting cold.
21:10Actually, I do...
21:11I do like them that way, actually.
21:13I'm not even joking.
21:15OK.
21:44I'm not even joking.
