00:28It's a big day
00:29for a little one.
00:31It's a big day for anyone.
00:34Hmm.
00:36No.
00:37I've got a text from a namesake.
00:39Oh.
00:41Super Dr. Harper.
00:43Oh, send a message.
00:45That's really sweet.
00:46Yeah, and a bit sickening.
00:49That brainy surgeon
00:50is also really thoughtful and nice.
00:52I mean, if I didn't like him so much, I'd hate him.
00:56That reminds me, actually,
00:58maybe I'd send him some pie.
00:59What?
01:00Bernie said that when he was in the cafe,
01:02he was absolutely mad on the cheese and onion pie,
01:04but they don't do it down south,
01:05so I thought I'd send him some.
01:07Then they send him some pie in the post?
01:10Yeah.
01:10That'll be funny.
01:12And thoughtful.
01:14And aggressively northern.
01:15I mean, it's leaning a bit too much into stereotype, isn't it?
01:18Why don't you just deliver it with a whippet
01:20wearing a flat cap?
01:21Shut up.
01:22Ain't this to happen?
01:24Here's your pie.
01:25For your supper.
01:26Stop it.
01:28I mean, it's just...
01:34I wish she was doing this today.
01:36Hey, come on.
01:38Not today.
01:38It's been amazing.
01:40Yeah, but, you know what I mean?
01:42Harper's so small, isn't she?
01:45You'd have to be really brave, too.
01:47Oh, no.
01:48I used to have to leave room
01:49when Kylie were trimming Lily's nails.
01:51Now, anybody goes near a baby with a scalp.
01:53I can't, don't, I don't.
01:55Hold on.
01:55Oh, come on.
01:56Come on.
01:57She's going to be fine, look.
01:58I mean, she's obviously proper hard, isn't she?
02:01I mean, look what she's survived already.
02:02The crash.
02:03The major, you know, surgery.
02:06Now this.
02:08She'll be absolutely fine.
02:10You watch.
02:12Lily!
02:14Oh, come on.
02:15Hurry up.
02:16I'm going to get your breakfast.
02:16You're going to be late for school.
02:17I don't see why I've got to go to school today.
02:19Really?
02:20You've been going long enough and you don't know.
02:21OK, right, because of the position on the neck,
02:23there's a high risk of blood loss.
02:25Yes.
02:26Yeah, blood loss.
02:27What the heck?
02:27Who is he talking to?
02:29No small chance.
02:30That's literally what it says.
02:32If the entire teratoma is not removed,
02:34there is a small chance
02:36that what is left of the mass could turn malignant.
02:38Oh, who are you talking to?
02:40Say hello, Mum.
02:41Oh, hello.
02:42Hi, Gail.
02:43She wants me to tell her about all the risks.
02:45OK, so damage to the nerves
02:46that impact facial movement and speech,
02:49issues with swallowing and eating,
02:51or if the tumour extends to the spinal cord.
02:54Yeah.
02:55I mean, obviously, there's always going to be risks,
02:57but maybe we should just focus on the positives, yeah?
02:59Mum, do you hear that?
03:00Toy's saying we should stay positive.
03:02Oh, she's gone.
03:03She just wants to make sure Max is kept up to date.
03:05Yeah, I told him that I'd ring him when it's finished.
03:07It is really dangerous today, isn't it?
03:10Well, I mean, Papa's so little
03:12that she needs all these machines
03:13hooked up to her just to keep her alive,
03:15let alone a major operation.
03:17Yeah, I mean...
03:19I don't know, maybe...
03:21Don't you think we should be there?
03:23Well, they said they didn't want any fuss.
03:25Yeah, but that's...
03:26That's the thing Shona says sometimes.
03:28She doesn't always mean it.
03:31We've only got a couple of bookings in for lunch.
03:33Yeah, I can bring my laptop.
03:35I haven't got any meetings booked in.
03:36I'll come too.
03:37Oh, all right, all right.
03:38But if they kick off, I'm blaming you lot.
03:41Er, Jo, did you want a lift?
03:43Oh, yeah, Ty, that'd be great.
03:44Are you scared of David?
03:46David, no.
03:47Shona terrified.
03:48Er, can I come too?
03:49No!
03:49Go to school, Lily!
03:52Do you know what time it is?
03:54You're such a lazy...
03:55Oi!
03:57What are you doing in there?
03:59Where's Debs?
04:00Didn't you hear?
04:02She's collapsed.
04:03They've took her to hospital.
04:05What?
04:05Is she all right?
04:06She's already on her way back.
04:08So you can ask her yourself.
04:10Come on.
04:11Out of there.
04:16Just keep bouncing, bouncing, bouncing.
04:18Go to the internet.
04:20Just keep bouncing.
04:21Hello.
04:22Hello.
04:23Hello.
04:26Oh.
04:27It turns out this one's a massive fan of interior design.
04:31Don't you?
04:33Oh, right.
04:34Yes.
04:35You didn't think that she fancied watching a cartoon, then?
04:38No.
04:38Why would I do that to myself?
04:41Besides, you only like shapes and colours, don't you?
04:44And this lot are a big fan of beige, aren't they?
04:49Oh.
04:49Oh, dear.
04:50Bless you.
04:52She's got a sniffle.
04:53Which means we're going to get a sniffle.
04:56Oh, my.
04:57What happened then?
04:58What does that mean?
05:01See, that could be a sympathy sneeze.
05:04What?
05:05You know, like a sympathy sneeze.
05:08When somebody yawns and then everybody else yawns, that's what that is.
05:12No, I'm pretty sure that doesn't apply to sneezing.
05:15Well, apparently it says you're empathetic.
05:18You know, the catchy yawn thing.
05:19Well, you're definitely catching some.
05:21Ha, ha, ha.
05:22Very funny.
05:23You see you.
05:25I definitely felt for their coughing in the night.
05:28It's horrible when they're sick at this age, isn't it?
05:31Can you imagine how the next door feels?
05:34Still, I only like Harper, don't I?
05:38Yeah.
05:39She's the only one I like out of that family.
05:41And she is still under review.
05:43Yes.
05:44We'll decide, won't we, when she finally moves in.
05:47Yes.
05:48So you're going to be all right looking after Connie today, then?
05:51Yeah.
05:52Of course I am.
05:54There's loads of these episodes.
05:56Hmm.
05:57Well, she seems happy enough anyway.
05:59Girl's got a good taste, haven't you?
06:01Yeah.
06:02Oi!
06:02Not just in daytime telly either.
06:04Right, I'll see you later.
06:05Bye-bye.
06:06Be good.
06:07What are they doing?
06:09How much wire can they put all over the walls?
06:12They've got a baby and a toddler.
06:15What were they thinking?
06:17Hmm?
06:19Exactly.
06:25How long has it been now?
06:28Seriously, David, it's been five minutes since you last asked.
06:31Anyway, you've got the time on your phone.
06:34All right.
06:35It's been two hours.
06:36All right, so we've got eight hours left.
06:38And I'm not sitting here for the next eight hours.
06:40Waiting, listening to you wittering on.
06:43Well, do you want to go for a walk?
06:44No, I don't want to go for a walk.
06:46I just want to sit here for the next eight hours and wait to find out how Harper is.
06:50Okay, sounds like a plan.
06:53Hi!
06:54Hi!
06:55They're here!
06:55They're over here!
06:56They're over here!
06:56What are you doing?
06:57Hey!
06:58What's going on?
06:58It's all right.
06:59We just thought we couldn't keep the company.
07:01What, even though I told you not, Tom?
07:02I know, but we thought we didn't know that.
07:04Yeah, you do talk a lot of nonsense sometimes.
07:07Is that okay with you, Jonah?
07:08Well, yeah.
07:09I mean, you're here now, aren't you?
07:10You'll save me listening to him for the next eight.
07:12Oh, hey!
07:13Any news?
07:14No, nothing.
07:14What's Taya doing here?
07:16She's family.
07:17I've got some would you ask.
07:18All right, well, Taya can stay around.
07:19The rest of you can jog on, though.
07:21Oh, man, it's just...
07:23Right, I've got two types here.
07:24I've got hummus and char-grilled vegetables
07:27and cold caprese panini.
07:29Panino?
07:30Panino?
07:30Is that the singular?
07:31I don't know.
07:31I've got loads, so I've got paninis.
07:33Yum, thanks, Taya.
07:34Well, these ones are yesterdays from the Bistro,
07:36but they're pretty good second day, aren't they?
07:37Yeah, I think they're nice if they go oily.
07:39Oh, you do me a favour, will you just call Mum
07:41and just let her know,
07:42because I can't be bothered talking to her again after this morning?
07:45Well, I've already hearted and thumbs up her messages
07:46in the plat chat, so...
07:47Yeah, but, you know,
07:48she doesn't like an emoji, does she?
07:50Just, I don't know, do, like, a selfie or something
07:52that'll do the trick.
07:52Well, we're not doing a selfie in an hospital.
07:55Nick, Taya, shall we get a selfie?
07:57You sure you're OK with us being here?
08:00Yeah.
08:01Good, because it was me.
08:02I really wanted to be here.
08:05Right, I've got some sudokus
08:06if you want to do one of those, Shona.
08:07No, it's all.
08:08Ooh.
08:11Just look after yourself, yeah?
08:14I'll look in on you in a bit.
08:17Yeah.
08:21So what's happened, then?
08:23Come in, Lulu.
08:25You've been to hospital?
08:26Yeah.
08:28And?
08:31Mind your own business.
08:33Everybody's business is everybody's business in here, though, innit?
08:35I mean, you don't have to tell me, but I'll find out.
08:37You know what, Dawn's like with gossip.
08:42I've had another TIA.
08:45What's a TIA?
08:47It's like a mini-stroke.
08:49Look, it's what happens to people with VD, vascular dementia.
09:00Right.
09:02Sorry to hear that.
09:03You all right?
09:05Yeah.
09:06Yeah, I'm fine.
09:09Right.
09:09Good.
09:11Do you want to, like, talk about it?
09:14No.
09:16Are you going to say that?
09:17Walked right into it.
09:19And yet you're still sat sitting here.
09:23My, um, my night had a stroke.
09:27So if you need a hand or anything.
09:32The stroke itself isn't the bad thing.
09:35I can have a TIA and feel writer's reign after.
09:38Well, not writer's reign, but, you know, it doesn't affect me that much.
09:42So what's the bad thing?
09:44You said the stroke isn't the bad thing.
09:46Hmm.
09:48The bad thing is, I had one recently.
09:53And this one was worse.
09:56So, this might be how it's going now.
10:01This could be it.
10:03The decline of the Debster.
10:06Or Debalina, as my friend Glenda likes to call me.
10:09That's her there.
10:13My last few months, eh?
10:15And here I am.
10:17I'm stuck in here with...
10:19Me?
10:21Yeah.
10:23You.
10:24No offence.
10:26None taken.
10:27Look, I get it.
10:28You don't want to be stuck in here.
10:29You want to be out there with the people you love.
10:33If this is it.
10:34Yay!
10:35Give the girl a goldfish.
10:40You going to tell Ronnie?
10:43Yeah.
10:44Yeah, I might do eventually.
10:47Eventually?
10:48Well, he knows how this goes.
10:51There's only one ending.
10:52Yeah, but...
10:53He knows.
10:57We all do.
11:00Have you done something different to that hummus?
11:02Because that is nice.
11:03Yeah, it's an ice cube of aquafaba.
11:05And you drop it in before you blend it.
11:07It's a game changer.
11:09I'm sure these stokies are getting harder.
11:12Is that looking okay?
11:13The Wi-Fi keeps cutting out.
11:15Yeah, mine's rubbish.
11:16Jonah?
11:16They just rushed into the room where Harper's office.
11:19What?
11:20Oh, sorry.
11:21Sorry.
11:21Oh, David.
11:26What's happened?
11:26Well, they didn't say much, but they said something about a bleed.
11:29A bleed?
11:30Yeah, he said he wasn't serious, though.
11:32Well, a bleed sounds serious to me.
11:33I know.
11:34Why didn't you ask him more?
11:35Because I thought it would be best to let him go in and do the job, all right?
11:37I'm going to go look for someone.
11:42I'm sure it wouldn't be serious.
11:43Yeah, they'll know what they're doing.
11:45Yeah, thanks, guys.
11:46That's really helpful.
11:47I'm really glad you came.
11:49Well, I'm only...
11:50Well, I don't know what the hell you're doing here, Sarah,
11:52because all you're doing is sat around.
11:54Chatting about flipping Wi-Fi and hummus.
11:57Look, we just wanted to support you.
11:58I don't want you supporting it.
11:59I don't want any of you here.
12:00You're just making things worse.
12:01We'll go.
12:02We'll go.
12:02Yeah, just go, please.
12:30Oh, you're joking.
12:33Well, I've got to go.
12:35I'll love you and leave you.
12:39Oh, I'll love you and leave you.
12:40Oh, Shanice, is Sally there?
12:42Can you put her on for me?
12:45Shanice?
12:47Hello?
12:48Hello?
12:49Shanice?
12:50Don't leave them.
12:51And turn that off.
12:52A dentist appointment's not an excuse for your screen timer.
12:55I'm taking you back to school in five minutes.
12:57Come on, five minutes.
12:59Lou, hi.
13:00Oh, sorry about that.
13:01I'm going to have to work on Shanice's phone etiquette.
13:04Oh, it's fine.
13:05I'm running out of credit anyway.
13:07I just wanted to say thank you for sorting out Joanie's netball club.
13:11Oh, it's fine.
13:12Look, I'm used to it with my girls.
13:14Sophie had a pretty mean bend and flip back in the day.
13:18So, Saturday tea time then?
13:20That'd be great.
13:21Yeah, ta.
13:22Lovely.
13:23Right, is there anything else?
13:24Erm, yeah.
13:27Actually, there sort of is.
13:33Oh, sorry.
13:35I am going.
13:36I just nipped to the shop.
13:38I get low blood sugar when I don't eat.
13:41I'm not diabetic or anything.
13:43I just get tired and grouchy.
13:46OK.
13:47I'm sorry I shouted.
13:49No, no, don't be.
13:50I mean, I totally get it.
13:52There are a lot of us.
13:54Yeah, there is.
13:57Any news?
13:59No.
13:59Just, well, they said even if there was a bleed, it's probably minor, so.
14:05Oh, that's good.
14:07Yeah.
14:08Yeah.
14:12Do you, er, do you want a bit?
14:15No.
14:16No, I've had some of Toya's sarmies.
14:22Well, feel free to say no, but you look like you could do with a hug.
14:26Oh.
14:27No, I mean, you don't have to or anything.
14:29No, no, we can, yeah, we can hug.
14:32Look, just don't tell anyone.
14:34I won't.
14:36OK.
14:39Harper will be fine, you know, I promise.
14:42Yeah.
14:42Yeah, I know.
14:44Well, I'll see you.
14:46See you.
14:56Oh.
14:58Look at you.
15:01Oh, she's, she?
15:03Yeah.
15:04She's, she's gorgeous.
15:06This is Tilly.
15:07Say hello, Tilly.
15:08Hiya.
15:09Hi, Tilly.
15:10We're hoping we can take her home soon.
15:12Oh, how exciting.
15:14Yeah.
15:15Are you with the girl that's having the big op?
15:20Sorry, I heard the nurses talking.
15:22Shouldn't have said anything, sorry.
15:23No, no, no, it's fine, yeah.
15:25Er, yeah, I am.
15:27I'm, I'm my mum.
15:28Shona.
15:29Nikki?
15:31Yeah, my, my little Harper's in for a big day today.
15:36That was the dad, he's spinning out a bit, you know.
15:38Yeah, I'm almost what dads are for, eh?
15:40Mm.
15:41No.
15:42I mean, to be fair to me, he's been brilliant.
15:45I just, well, sometimes I just wish I wasn't happy to be the strong one all the time, but.
15:50Well, from what I've just seen, you're doing brilliantly.
15:53Him and Harper are lucky to have you.
15:57It's all right.
15:58Bye, Tilly.
15:59Say bye.
16:00Bye.
16:01Bye, Shona.
16:08Hey, Sal, what can I do for you?
16:10Um, I tried to ring you.
16:12I've just got off the phone from Lou at the prison.
16:14Is everything okay?
16:15Debbie had another TIA last night.
16:18What?
16:18Yeah, she's fine.
16:20They took her to the hospital to check her out, and apparently she's already back.
16:24Why didn't anybody tell me anything?
16:26I don't know, but like Lou said, she's fine.
16:28She's obviously just a bit shaken up.
16:30Hello?
16:30Yeah, this is Debbie Webster's husband.
16:33I've just been told she's had a serious medical emergency.
16:39Yeah, I'll hold.
16:45You're beautiful.
16:47So no emergencies then?
16:49No, I've not broken her yet, have I?
16:53You don't need to come back and check on me on your lunch hour.
16:55I'm not checking on you, I'm seeing you.
16:57There's a difference.
16:58Oh, come here.
16:59So score out of ten for what you're seeing?
17:04Hi.
17:06I'll give you a solid nine.
17:09Nine?
17:11Why not a ten?
17:12Well, because this one's smelling a bit ripe.
17:14Come on, nap your time.
17:16Ripe?
17:17There you go.
17:18Hiya.
17:20Oh, fucking heck, Connie, not again.
17:22Can't believe what, actually, since you're here.
17:24Er, no, no, no, no.
17:26I'll have to do back in a minute.
17:28Funny that, ain't it?
17:29If I'm being honest, I was awful at it when Betsy was tiny.
17:33I'm ashamed to say it was...
17:37Her other mum was in charge of plumbing.
17:39You mean Becky?
17:40I can't say her name.
17:42I don't know, it's his reflex, I guess.
17:44I just don't want to be part of our life anymore.
17:47I know.
17:47Well, now they do her, but she kind of is, isn't she?
17:51It's all right, Liz.
17:53We've all got a pass, haven't we?
17:57Becky.
17:58Becky.
17:58Mm-hm.
17:59There.
18:00Better?
18:01Mm.
18:03Do you, er...
18:05Do you fancy saying the names of your exes out loud,
18:08or do you reckon we need to book out a weekend?
18:09Hey, just cos I've got a baby in my hand, I mean, I can't hurt you.
18:13You're very naughty, you know.
18:14Mm, don't know if you are.
18:17Right, I need to go.
18:19I'll see you later.
18:20Okay.
18:23Bye.
18:24Bye.
18:26Hey, she's got a point, you know.
18:28I mean, if you're going to take after your family,
18:31probably best you give your dad and me a miss.
18:33Come on then, ripy.
18:36Pfft.
18:39It'll be dark now.
18:41Mm.
18:43You know when, like, you go to the cinema in the daytime,
18:46and you come out when it's dark,
18:48when it really messes with your head?
18:51Mm.
18:52Well, this is the exact opposite of that.
18:55I've never just watched time pass before.
19:00Yeah.
19:03Do you think Harper feels that?
19:06You know, like, time passing?
19:09Bodom?
19:11Loneliness?
19:13I don't know.
19:15I'm never going to let her feel like that.
19:18You know, lonely.
19:20It's the worst thing.
19:22Well, I doubt she feels lonely,
19:24not with all that lot around her anyway.
19:27Sometimes it's all I crave, a bit of loneliness.
19:30You don't mean that.
19:32I'll be out.
19:43Oh, flippin' heck.
19:45What's that?
19:48David!
19:50What are you doing here?
19:52Well, we sort of didn't leave.
19:55So, how is she?
19:59She's fine.
20:01Oh, my goodness!
20:02It's totally fine.
20:05So happy, babe.
20:06Long time.
20:07Oh, my goodness.
20:09Yeah, yeah, yeah.
20:10She's fine.
20:11Yeah.
20:13Hey!
20:14What have you done?
20:15What?
20:16I've just been told my husband's coming in for an emergency visit.
20:19What have you said?
20:20I had a call with my kids, and yeah, I might have mentioned something to Sally.
20:24Why?
20:25How dare you?
20:26Yeah.
20:27Let's just calm it down there, ladies.
20:28You know nothing about me.
20:30Nothing.
20:30We're not friends.
20:31You're just some common little stuff bad with a psycho killer husband.
20:36You need to back off.
20:37Right, the pair of you.
20:38Stop it now.
20:39Oh, finally.
20:40Yeah.
20:40That's all I've ever wanted to do.
20:42Me?
20:42Back off.
20:43You mean no to me, you, Lou.
20:46So I'd let you back off.
20:48Yeah, all right.
20:49I'm backing off.
20:51Backing off?
21:02See, what I keep saying, proper hard.
21:05No.
21:06She's a lover, not a fighter.
21:09I wonder where she goes out from.
21:13I love you.
21:15I love you.
21:17I love you.
21:37I love you.
21:58I love you.
21:59I love you.
