00:00MUSIC PLAYS
00:23I thought you weren't reading any more bad reviews.
00:26It's just this police thingy. I mean, as if George would police anyone.
00:30He gets in a cold sweat when he's got an overdue library book.
00:32What's this?
00:34Ah, just this, um, George stuff. It'll blow over.
00:37Yeah, so, so.
00:38Anyway, it's your birthday tomorrow. What do you fancy doing?
00:41Oh, er...
00:43I'm easy.
00:44Oh, we know that.
00:45But what about your birthday?
00:47Oh, right, on that note, I'm off.
00:50Well, I'll see you later, Summit.
00:52Yeah, have a good day.
00:57Listen, I've actually not been able to get you anything yet.
01:00I've, um, used up my allowance.
01:04I was wondering if there was any chance...
01:07What?
01:09You want me to lend you money so that you can buy me a birthday present,
01:12is that it?
01:12I have tried to make it last,
01:15but it looks like I'm gonna have to get new work shoes now
01:18and, I mean, you don't want me looking like the littlest hobo.
01:20That's always Summit with you, isn't there, eh?
01:23Yeah, all right.
01:24I'll lend you 200 quid,
01:25but that's got to cover me birthday meal tomorrow and all.
01:28Thanks.
01:30You know, if we had that joint account...
01:33Look, I'm trying to help you get on top of your finances.
01:38I'm doing this for you.
01:41I don't want to be doing this.
01:45Okay?
01:50Why have you got these cufflinks out?
01:51What?
01:52I'm building a shrine to him now.
02:32Oh, thank you.
02:36Well...
02:37You've not been home?
02:40So you might need me.
02:42Thanks.
02:45What's this just for, eh?
02:46Mm-hmm.
02:47Hey.
02:49Tea?
02:50Moving on, yeah.
02:52Do you want anything else?
02:57I could get you some magazines or something.
03:00No, we're fine, thanks.
03:02Well, it's either that or...
03:04...we're staring at each other all day.
03:07Hey, some women have put a gun on it and stared at me.
03:11Actually, yeah, go on, why not?
03:12Could you get us some magazines?
03:15Yeah, right, I'll, er...
03:17...be back in a sec.
03:22Have you been here all night?
03:23Mm-hmm.
03:25Yeah, I didn't know either.
03:32Oh, we're just not getting any new business.
03:34Well, you don't know what's to do with the police thing, do you?
03:37Well, it's either that or folk have stopped dying.
03:39Oh.
03:40Oh, it's me, isn't it?
03:41Everyone's talking about me, I can tell.
03:43I'm sure that's not true.
03:44Well, I was just talking about you with Dev.
03:47Hello.
03:48I mean, he says he can't believe this whole widow diddler thing.
03:51Is that what they're calling me?
03:53Only online.
03:54I haven't diddled anyone.
03:55You need to get out a bit more.
03:59PHONE RINGS
04:02Me solicitor.
04:05Answer it.
04:05No, I don't want to.
04:08PHONE RINGS
04:10Hello?
04:13Look, if this is going to be more bad than you...
04:18Yes, I am still here.
04:22The police are dropping the case.
04:24Oh!
04:24Yes, no, I'm listening.
04:28We'll find it, don't worry.
04:29Yeah, but what if he does?
04:32That thieving get.
04:34I knew David had nicked this and my mum blamed me.
04:37Try the cupboard by the stairs.
04:39PHONE RINGS
04:42Max?
04:43Hey, how are you doing?
04:46No.
04:46No, your dad and Shona are still at the hospital.
04:48I'm just taking her to school.
04:51Yeah, yeah, the baby's all good.
04:53Yeah, all fine.
04:54Erm, listen, Lily is going to end up being late.
04:57Would you be able to call your dad on his mobile?
05:00Yeah.
05:01All right, I'll speak to you soon.
05:02Bye.
05:04Have you found it?
05:07Your homework.
05:09Sorry.
05:10No, I probably just left it in class or something.
05:12After all that?
05:15Come on.
05:19You have to hit those buttons, they're hard.
05:22I'm writing an email, aren't I?
05:23Yeah.
05:24It's nice that the baby's bringing you closer.
05:28Can you imagine having time to go for a run?
05:31I haven't even got time to go for a wee-in piece.
05:33Just to stay in charge.
05:34Oh, wow.
05:35Yeah.
05:35Ryan.
05:36Don't slam that door.
05:38Don't.
05:38Slam it.
05:39Please.
05:45She's still asleep.
05:47Yeah.
05:51It's 11 o'clock and we're still in our PJs.
05:54Mm-hmm.
05:55Would you look at us?
05:56We look like Bert and Ernie from Sesame Street.
05:58Baby's out.
06:01What on earth is that?
06:08I just...
06:09Shh.
06:09Don't put the baby's asleep.
06:11Yes, I'll be quiet.
06:12I'll be quiet.
06:13Don't put the baby's asleep.
06:14Oh, are we having a progenoma party?
06:17We haven't been to bed yet.
06:18Oh, one of those nights, is it?
06:19Right.
06:20I won't keep you.
06:21Er, Sarah's asked me if you could get these documents signed.
06:24Can I have a little beep?
06:25She looks exactly the same as she did yesterday, Sally.
06:28Oh, just a quick one.
06:29Oh, no.
06:30Come on, Frances.
06:33Who's sorry now?
06:34That was one of her.
06:37You'll be sorry.
06:41It's okay.
06:42Leave it with me.
06:43I'll get her back down.
06:48Well, yeah, Harper's fine.
06:51We're just gonna go to the canteen, get some food, you know.
06:56Why would I have your Abba CD?
06:58It's your guilty pleasure.
07:00Don't feel guilty for liking Abba.
07:01That's what I said.
07:02I do not like Abba.
07:04I'll see you in canteen.
07:05Right.
07:06Okay.
07:07Right, shall we count how many crocs we see on the way?
07:09Well, they love our crocs, don't they, doctors?
07:14Er, I just need a quick...
07:15Yeah, won't be long.
07:16No.
07:21Hey, that's brilliant.
07:23Yeah, I know.
07:25When people find out that the police have dropped the charges,
07:28they'll realise what a load of old rubbish it all was.
07:30And the phone will start ringing again.
07:32Oh.
07:32Do you know what?
07:33I feel like a weight has been lifted.
07:35What is it they say?
07:37You never realised you were happy until you're not.
07:40Hey, tell you what.
07:42Go and get us some sarnies from that Italian place.
07:44You know, and that bread that I like.
07:46Well, all those carbs.
07:47I mean, my body's a temple.
07:48Hey, no church today, Toddercals.
07:50We're celebrating.
07:52Focaccia.
07:52Right, there's no need for that.
07:54Very funny.
07:55Go on.
07:56Scram.
07:57Hey, do you know what?
07:58It's really good to see you with a smile back on your face.
08:09Hey!
08:10Hi.
08:11How did Harper's surgery go?
08:13Er...
08:14It is Harper your daughter, isn't it?
08:15Yeah, yeah, that's right.
08:17Yeah.
08:18Yeah, surgery went well over the moon.
08:20Oh, I bet you are.
08:22Yeah.
08:23Er, how's Tilly?
08:25We're taking her home today.
08:26Oh, that's great.
08:27I'm so happy for you.
08:28You know, I am so glad this has worked out for us, you know.
08:31I was thinking about you all night.
08:33Thanks.
08:34Me too.
08:34I can't tell you how scared I've been about Harper.
08:38I'll admit I even said a little prayer.
08:40You know, please, God, don't take my daughter.
08:43I've been worried sick.
08:44It's all we do as mums, isn't it?
08:45We just worry.
08:46Yeah.
08:47Erm, why are you telling this woman that Harper's your daughter?
09:07I don't think that's quite what I said.
09:10I heard you.
09:11Er, I think I'd best get on.
09:13Yeah, alright.
09:14Look after yourself, love.
09:17Her mum's got curly hair.
09:18What are you on about?
09:19Oh, come on.
09:20You must have heard that one.
09:21Her mum's got curly hair.
09:23I'm trying to tell you very subtly that that woman, well, she's round the bend.
09:27Total fruit loop.
09:28Well, if she's a fruit loop.
09:29What are you?
09:30I mean, why would you say you're Harper's mum?
09:32No, I didn't.
09:34She just assumed I was Harper's mum and it was one of those situations where it was easier
09:38to go along with it than to...
09:39Yeah.
09:40I met her yesterday and I've been trying to avoid her ever since.
09:44From what I hear, right, she hasn't even got a sick daughter.
09:48Oh, no, no, that's weird.
09:50Mm.
09:51Some people are just weird though, aren't they?
09:53I mean, all they do is lie.
09:55Well, if she's a fantasist.
09:56Exactly.
09:57Yeah.
09:58You know, imagine having to lie to try and get people to like you.
10:02You know, the sad thing is, right?
10:04People like that, they just want to be loved.
10:08And they always end up on their own.
10:10Bitter, twisted and lonely.
10:19You're good on that social media, aren't you?
10:22How do we put it out there?
10:27Nice cufflinks.
10:28Uh, yeah, sorry, I'm just trying to find a birthday gift for Theo.
10:31No, no, no, it's fine.
10:32Do your shopping.
10:34It's not like we've got much business in, is it?
10:36Which is why we need to let people know.
10:38We can't just put it on Facebook.
10:40Everybody, I did not rob that old widow.
10:43I wouldn't have put it quite like that.
10:44It's disrespectful to her family.
10:46No.
10:46No, I can see that.
10:50Jerry.
10:52That fella that does the humanist funerals.
10:55He's a terrible gossip.
10:57Maybe you could drop into a conversation
10:59that the police aren't pursuing the case.
11:01He'd be all over it.
11:03Tell everyone.
11:04Good work.
11:05Hmm.
11:07Right, I'm just gonna nip out for a bit.
11:08You'll be okay on your own, won't you?
11:10Yeah.
11:10Oh, I've got sauce on me time.
11:13Please, will you?
11:15Hello, George Shuttleworth.
11:18What now?
11:20Right.
11:20Yeah.
11:21On me way now.
11:23Yeah, I'm coming.
11:27Oh.
11:29Uh...
11:31More expense.
11:38So if she's holding her head steady,
11:40and she's got good hand-to-eye coordination,
11:43then she's ready for solids.
11:44You writing this down?
11:45Making a mental note of it.
11:47I have done this before, you know Sally.
11:49I am a mum.
11:50Yeah.
11:51A one.
11:51I'm a mother of two.
11:53One straight and one lesbian, which is nice.
11:55And I'm a foster mother of three.
11:57And I'm telling you now,
11:58weaning is so hard.
12:00Because you want to feed them,
12:01but you don't want to overfeed them.
12:02Have you got a blender?
12:03Top of the range, then.
12:04Good.
12:05Because you don't want to be giving them jars every day.
12:07Okay, what else?
12:09Um...
12:09Bad time routine.
12:10Once a week whether she needs it or not.
12:13I have one every Christmas Eve.
12:15Well, not this year, loves.
12:16You know, if you're not going to take this seriously...
12:19Sally, it's half twelve,
12:20and I'm just going to put some lunch on, so...
12:22Oh, well, yeah, if you don't mind.
12:24Not for you.
12:25Oh.
12:25Am I getting on your nerves?
12:27No.
12:29Maybe a little bit.
12:30I'm only trying to help you.
12:32What I'd help is if you'd go back and do the job I'm paying for.
12:34I haven't taken.
12:36Ooh.
12:37Gaspard.
12:38Anyone fancy a brew?
12:39Oh!
12:40No.
12:40No.
12:41Oh, I know.
12:41I'm not wanting.
12:43I don't think.
12:49That that wasn't made.
12:50How do you work with that woman every day?
12:55Hey, hey.
12:56There you go.
12:59We'd better get going.
13:00We've been here over an hour.
13:01Yeah, but Carla's working from home,
13:03Sarah's in a meeting,
13:04and Sally went AWOL this morning.
13:07We will have a rubber.
13:09Sean.
13:10That's my name.
13:10Don't wear it out.
13:11What can I get you, the usual?
13:13Now, er,
13:14I think I'm going to change it up a bit today.
13:16Tell you what, I'll have a pint of mix,
13:17like my dad used to have.
13:19But you don't even know what a pint of mixed is, do you?
13:20Of course I know what a pint of mixed is.
13:23Huh?
13:23Soft.
13:25Mild, half bitter, isn't it?
13:26Yeah.
13:27That's not a metaphor.
13:28I don't know what is.
13:29You all right, George?
13:30Tell you what,
13:31give us a glass of whiskey as well, will you, Sean?
13:33You want to join me?
13:34Oh, it's a bit early for me, cop.
13:36Mary!
13:37What can I get you?
13:38Dubonnet.
13:39Well, a small one.
13:40A large Dubonnet for Mary, please, Sean.
13:43Is something wrong, George?
13:44You seem a little bit, um...
13:47But the police are definitely not pursuing the case.
13:49Yeah.
13:50No, nothing to do with the police.
13:52Yeah, everything's fine.
13:54Just fine.
13:55It couldn't be better.
13:57Tell you what, make that a double, will you, Sean?
13:58All right, we're not busy.
14:04Only me.
14:38I'm sorry, Billy.
14:45Who are you talking to?
14:46Uh...
14:47No-one.
14:48Been trying to call you.
14:50Have you?
14:51Yeah.
14:52You've been ignoring me.
14:54Oh, sorry, I popped into town to get you a present, and I left my phone in the car.
14:58Oh.
14:58All right, I'll let you off then.
15:00Looking forward to this, Prezi.
15:02Best not disappoint me.
15:06I won't.
15:07Anyway, I have got to get back to work, so, um...
15:09See you tonight?
15:10Yeah, all right.
15:11See you tonight.
15:12All right.
15:17Same again, please, Seany.
15:18Well, you haven't finished that one yet.
15:22Where are they, and what did you tell them?
15:23Just to get here, quick.
15:28Hey, did you ever hear what Frank Sinatra said?
15:31Well, you're not going to sing, are you?
15:34He said he feels sorry for people what don't drink.
15:38Cos they wake up in the morning, and that's as good as they're going to feel all day.
15:45But, happen, it might be best if you just go home, eh?
15:47Happen, it might be better if you shut up and pour me another drink.
15:51It's four o'clock.
15:53Oh, yeah, we should definitely get going.
15:55We'd be taking the mic if we went back to work now, though.
15:57What?
15:58You're right.
15:59The ethical thing would be to just stay here.
16:03You're round?
16:04Oh, here they are.
16:06Ah, hello.
16:07Nah.
16:08My two favourite women in the all-wide world.
16:11Oh, dear.
16:11What can I get you?
16:12What's up, George?
16:13What's up, George?
16:15You sound like Bugs Bunny.
16:16Hey, did you ever see that one with Daffy Duck?
16:19I think you've had enough, love.
16:20Michael, let me get you a drink.
16:22A drink for Michael, please.
16:23So, Elmer Fudd goes out hunting, right?
16:29Bugs, Daffy, they keep swapping the signs around.
16:32Duck season.
16:33Rabbit season.
16:34Duck season.
16:34Rabbit season.
16:37Only, at the moment, it's George season.
16:41It's not ducks or rabbits that are hunting.
16:45It's me.
16:48Just when I thought it was all over.
16:57Hiya.
16:58Hey.
16:59You alright?
17:00Yeah.
17:02Well, have a look.
17:04I got this in the sale for Theo.
17:07Oh.
17:07It's great.
17:08He'll love it.
17:09Yeah.
17:09What have you got him?
17:11I have, um, got to pop out later.
17:14Leaving it till last minute.
17:16Oh, you're so romantic.
17:18I'd hate to be your fiancรฉ.
17:20Where's George?
17:22Er, no idea.
17:26I'm never complaining about anything ever again.
17:29Right, I'm going to hold you at that.
17:31No, I mean it.
17:32You're so lucky.
17:34Yeah.
17:35Twelve people.
17:37Hey.
17:38Oh, it's the amount of people involved in removing the mass.
17:41Yeah.
17:42Well?
17:43How many disciples, Jesus?
17:45It was twelve, wasn't it?
17:46It was.
17:47Are you saying I've given birth to the next messiah?
17:50I won't, but it passed you.
17:53Seriously, though.
17:54Thanks.
17:55What for?
17:57For Harper.
17:59And she's perfect, isn't she?
18:00Mm.
18:01Well, she's probably going to grow up and break our hearts into a million pieces, but...
18:05I'm right.
18:06No, you're right.
18:07She's perfect.
18:11Are you crying?
18:13No.
18:13Well...
18:14They're happy to.
18:15Yeah, come in.
18:19You might as well get off, Jodes.
18:22No.
18:23No.
18:23No, I...
18:23I want to stay.
18:24Oh, come on.
18:25You've not even been to bed.
18:26It's fine.
18:27You might need me and...
18:28Well, you've done enough, haven't you?
18:30And look, visiting hours are over now anyway.
18:32It's just parents.
18:33Mm.
18:34Yeah, you get some rest.
18:36Okay.
18:37I'll see you at home.
18:40Right.
18:41See you later.
18:43Yeah.
18:51Hey.
18:53Oh.
18:55Someone's been celebrating a bit too hard.
18:57Too hard.
18:58Maybe.
19:01Too soon.
19:03Definitely.
19:09Not this this afternoon.
19:12Annie.
19:13She's still taking me to court.
19:15You're joking.
19:19Well, at least it's not the police.
19:22Nothing will come of it.
19:24Yeah.
19:25That's what I'll be left with.
19:27Nothing.
19:28If she wins, I'll have to pay her costs as well as me own.
19:33Listen, I will step up.
19:35All right?
19:35I will work round the clock so that you can concentrate on this court stuff.
19:41Do you know, I thought everything was gonna be all right.
19:45More fuel me.
19:48I had this tiny little moment of relief.
19:52Before a great giant meteor come crashing down on me head.
19:59To the hope that kills you, innit?
20:01Right now, you are upset.
20:04All right, let's talk about it tomorrow.
20:06No.
20:09Nothing to talk about, Todd.
20:11Dover.
20:13My dad's a good name.
20:16Everything he fought to build over the years.
20:22This is the end.
20:29Sorry, Dad.
20:31I let you down.
20:40Why have you got Bernie's head in a box?
20:43It...
20:44It was a joke.
20:45Yeah, and it freaked me out.
20:46And why is Brian's book in there as well?
20:48You haven't shown anyone that, have you?
20:49No.
20:50Not yet.
20:53Listen, I, er...
20:55I took the book because I was sticking up for you.
20:58Someone's got to.
20:59Your dad and Shona don't.
21:01You won't tell anyone, will you?
21:06Right, I'm gonna go in a minute.
21:08Do you need anything before I do?
21:11Is everything okay?
21:12Er, yeah. Yeah, we're fine.
21:17Thanks.
21:19So we'll keep this between us then, yeah?
21:20It's mental.
21:22Yeah, but...
21:23Good mental.
21:24You don't want to get me into trouble, do you?
21:27I've always had your back, so you've got to have mine.
21:30Okay?
21:33Lily, you're not gonna tell anyone, are you?
21:36I'll think about it.
21:41All right, I'm off.
21:42You okay?
21:44Yeah.
21:44Yeah, it's just been a long day.
21:46Right, well, I'll see you later.
21:48Bye.
22:02Set a reminder for our brand new drama, Gone, Sunday here at nine.
22:07Next, it's True Crime Presents, prescription for murder.
