00:00Sorry, I know I keep banging on about it,
00:10but I don't know what's holding me back exactly.
00:18Well, maybe I should just go ahead and open it.
00:20What do you think?
00:24I should find out what she wanted to say to me.
00:30Shouldn't I?
00:35You know, any sort of sign would be great.
00:42Well, unless you think there's a reason I shouldn't open it.
00:45There you are.
00:48Been looking for you everywhere.
00:50Oh, really? Everywhere?
00:53Yeah, all right.
00:55Come on, get your best clubber on.
00:57Why?
00:58Because I'm not having you alone on your birthday
01:01talking to him like some misery gods.
01:03No offence.
01:04Yeah, I don't normally do anything on my birthday.
01:07Tough.
01:08Come on, get a shift on.
01:10Uh, Jordy?
01:11Why here?
01:24I thought it'd be a good chance for us to spend some quality time together.
01:30Why here?
01:32I thought it'd be a good chance for us to spend some quality time together.
01:35For good music.
01:36Couple of pints?
01:38That does sound good, actually.
01:40Couple of pints, just you and me?
01:45Happy birthday!
01:51What a lovely surprise.
01:54I'm off to the bar.
01:55Lemonade's all end, is it?
01:57That's right.
01:58None of us are partaking of any alcohol this evening, remember?
02:02Not a drop.
02:03Not on my watch.
02:04Absolutely.
02:05I like lemonade.
02:10This is scene.
02:12At least let Jack have a drink.
02:14It is Alfie's birthday, after all.
02:16You could be mistaken for thinking it was his funeral, the face on him.
02:21Your birthday present's arrived.
02:25What's she doing here?
02:26Yeah.
02:27Geordie invited her.
02:28Is there anyone you didn't invite?
02:30Er, you're welcome.
02:32Meg!
02:33Oh!
02:34Sorry.
02:35Oh.
02:36Happy birthday, Alfie.
02:37You really shouldn't have.
02:45Oh.
02:46Wow.
02:47Do you like it?
02:48I love it.
02:49I love it.
02:50It'll come in handy to hide your greys.
02:51Hey!
02:52I'm not that old.
02:53Aging should never be feared, lad.
02:54It's happening to us all.
02:55Meg, it's perfect.
02:56What do you think?
02:57Watch out!
02:58I'm sorry.
02:59Uh, can I get you a drink?
03:00Yes.
03:01Please.
03:02Bet she gets a proper drink.
03:03Well, good evening.
03:04everyone.
03:05Good evening, everyone.
03:06My name is Laurel Adamson.
03:07It's happening to us all.
03:11Meg, it's perfect.
03:14What do you think?
03:16Watch out!
03:17I'm sorry.
03:22Uh, can I get you a drink?
03:24Yes, please.
03:27Bet she gets a proper drink.
03:31Well, good evening, everyone.
03:33My name is Laurel Adams.
03:36Tonight, I have the very special honour
03:38of introducing my band to you all.
03:42But first, tell me,
03:43are you ready to rock and roll?
03:45Yes!
03:46Put your hands together for the Velvet Jacks!
03:57You know, she's been such a big fan of ours from the start,
04:00we decided to make her our manager.
04:03Had to give the poor thing an excuse to hang around,
04:05because, well, let's be honest,
04:06he was getting a little bit embarrassing.
04:09My, oh, my!
04:10Well, you lot might be the best-looking crowd
04:12this side of Peterborough!
04:14Very gorgeous.
04:15He really does have a look of Buddy Holly about him,
04:17doing things.
04:18He's a good-looking chap.
04:19All looks and no substance.
04:21For those of you who don't know,
04:22my name is Eric.
04:24I know you lot know me, but yeah.
04:26Tonight on the base, we have Aaron!
04:28Aaron, understandably,
04:30he may look a bit like a chimney sweep,
04:31but Aaron is a killer on the base.
04:34Tonight on the drums, we have Aidan.
04:36Aidan loves a pioneer.
04:37Everyone give it up for the Drunken Drummer!
04:41One, two, three, four!
04:46One, two, three, four!
04:47One, two, three, four!
05:01Thank you, James!
05:02We'll see you in a few!
05:04Funny.
05:05This being called a working men's club,
05:18you don't get working women's clubs now, do you?
05:21Cathy, every home is a working women's club.
05:23Where the heck have you been?
05:25Oh, er, there was just a bit of a queue at the gents.
05:28Listen, um, I've been thinking.
05:30Will you not change your minds
05:32and let me lend you the money for your, er, project?
05:36I mean, it would make everything so much simpler for both of you.
05:39It's not a project.
05:41It's a business.
05:42Called Cece's Boutique.
05:45I'm going to the ladies.
05:50It's our names combined.
05:53Wouldn't that be Sylvia and Cathy's?
05:55It's the C from Cathy and the C from Chapman.
06:00Cece's.
06:01See?
06:06Now, listen.
06:08I've arranged a little something to cheer you up.
06:11What is it?
06:13He's coming home.
06:15What?
06:16I called Daniel at his parents' home.
06:18His mother sounds ever so agreeable.
06:20Don't worry.
06:21I didn't mention any of the goings-on.
06:23I simply told Daniel that you could do with a little company.
06:28I don't know what to say.
06:30Thank you, Mrs. C.
06:32You need support, Leonard.
06:40Can I get you anything, sir?
06:44Should I not have invited her?
06:45No, no.
06:46It's great she's here.
06:47Really great.
06:48Then why aren't you grabbing this with both hands?
06:51You clearly like her.
06:53A lot.
06:57Don't let the hat hold you back.
06:58I know.
06:59You're not a hat man.
07:00Never have been.
07:01That could change.
07:04Well, it's not the hat.
07:06Then what?
07:07Well, I'm nervous.
07:09Of course you're...
07:11Because she's a funny, intelligent, and beautiful woman.
07:15You're really not helping.
07:16Who clearly likes you a lot.
07:24You could totally be a hat man.
07:25Hi.
07:48What do you think?
07:50About what?
07:52The band.
07:53They were...
07:56Fine.
07:58Yeah.
08:01Do you play any instruments?
08:03Yeah.
08:04The piano.
08:05The piano?
08:07That's fantastic.
08:11Can I take you out?
08:13This weekend, we could try the Italian down from here.
08:16Jordy reckons their meatballs are to die for.
08:20You want to go out this weekend?
08:22Oh, are you busy?
08:23No.
08:24It's not that.
08:25It's just...
08:27Well, I haven't heard from you in so long, I thought you weren't interested anymore.
08:30No.
08:31No.
08:33I just got a bit spooked by the whole your dad being my boss situation.
08:37But...
08:38But why let giant hurdles get in the way?
08:43Meatballs do happen to be my favourite.
08:46Good.
08:49Hey!
08:51I really enjoyed that.
08:52You guys sounded great.
08:53Thank you very much.
08:54How long have you been playing?
08:55Since I was five.
08:57My dad told me.
08:58Hey, they're gorgeous.
08:59Could I, um...
09:00Could I get you a drink?
09:01I'm fine.
09:04Yes.
09:05Yes, there you are.
09:06Eric.
09:07We need a band meeting.
09:08For God's sake.
09:10Do we have a London gig or not?
09:12The booker doesn't think you're ready.
09:14How could you mess this up for us?
09:15I didn't.
09:17We should have never gone with a girl.
09:19We should have never gone with a girl.
09:25You promised.
09:26You promised.
09:27You promised.
09:28I'd let you slip away.
09:33How should it do?
09:39Well, as far as birthdays go, that puts him half bad.
09:43He means thank you, Geordie, I'm glad you saved me from my introspection.
09:46Thank you, Alfie, for indulging a middle-aged meddler.
09:51Are you OK?
09:54I'm fine.
09:55You poor love.
09:57It's best to get it all out.
10:01I really have to go.
10:03I can just go.
10:07I could never handle my drink at that age, either.
10:09Don't I know it.
10:11Has Meg gone?
10:12Yeah.
10:13You look really good together, you know, you and her.
10:16Oh, the hat.
10:17See, you do care.
10:19Two minutes!
10:23You're imagining things.
10:24I haven't seen it.
10:25Liar!
10:26What have you done with it?
10:27I told you, I haven't got it.
10:30Sorry, I was just...
10:32I don't know.
10:49I don't know.
10:54I found him like that, I promise you.
11:04Did you see him with anyone else?
11:07He must have heard something at least.
11:11Did you hear him fall?
11:12Was he arguing with anyone?
11:15I heard Ray's voices before.
11:17Male or female?
11:19Both.
11:21But there was no one there.
11:24We'll continue this at the station.
11:29I'll need to speak to all three of you.
11:37Well, it looks like a wound to the back of the head has caused a substantial bleed.
11:42Only there's no sign of a weapon.
11:46Hello.
11:54What's this?
12:00Sex, drugs and rock and roll.
12:02No doubt.
12:05I got them tested.
12:07Well, nothing else seems out of place.
12:10They look like one clean strike.
12:13And it's fresh.
12:15Likely happened not long before you arrived.
12:18So if Aaron is telling the truth, then it's pretty unbelievable he didn't see anything.
12:31Something's happened between that, love.
12:33We need them to start talking.
12:35I've got to sweat your palms.
12:48It's not that warm in here.
12:50About this afternoon.
12:52You're not getting cold feet, are you?
12:54No.
12:55I've been waiting for this since the day I first clapped eyes on you.
12:58I can't believe it's actually happening.
13:00After today, we can call each other husband...
13:03Shh!
13:05Morning.
13:06Laurel Adams is waiting in the interview room.
13:09Yes, interview room.
13:14Everything okay?
13:16Yes.
13:16Why wouldn't it be?
13:17You've had a row, haven't you?
13:19No, I was merely reminding Larry about his dentist appointment this afternoon.
13:24He'd forgotten.
13:25Dentist?
13:26See?
13:28And I have an appointment with the doctor.
13:31Did I know about this?
13:32It is in the calendar.
13:34Okay.
13:35No bother, then.
13:44Aaron said he heard arguing coming from the back room before he found Eric.
13:48One of the voices was female.
13:51And I overheard you arguing with Aidan last night.
13:53So would you say you had a bit of a temper, Laurel?
13:56Whoever Eric was arguing with, it wasn't me.
13:58I'm the one who held everything together.
14:00Any idea who it could have been?
14:02Probably some sad little groupie who couldn't understand why she was out the door.
14:07Then what were you and Aidan arguing about?
14:10Something's gone missing.
14:11And what is it?
14:13Just a bag.
14:14Well, you seem pretty angry.
14:15What's in this bag exactly?
14:18Stuff that belongs to me.
14:19You think Aidan took it?
14:20A band on the rise.
14:29Thought they'd be able to afford something a little nicer.
14:32They're hardly Jimmy Gilman the Fireball.
14:34Aidan?
14:45Aidan?
14:46Hey!
14:50I can explain.
14:52Five hundred pounds is a considerable amount of money.
15:05Could you explain to us where you got it, Mr. Ennis?
15:08It's what I'm owed.
15:10For the gigs we've done.
15:12Is that just your share?
15:14It's mine.
15:14And Aaron's.
15:15I was on my way to give him his cut.
15:18She hasn't been paying us for months now.
15:21When you say she...
15:23Laurel.
15:23Is there a reason for that?
15:25She's a controlling witch who only cares about money.
15:30Tell us about your relationship with Eric.
15:33We were bandmates.
15:35Only, for me and Aaron, it's only ever been about the music.
15:40We were going to quit after the gig.
15:42We wanted to walk away from them last night.
15:45Take our money.
15:46But then Aaron had to go back.
15:49For his...
15:50For his guitar.
15:56The absence of a weapon's been bothering me.
15:59The wound was fresh.
16:01And so whoever struck him would have had to get rid of it immediately.
16:04But that would have meant leaving the room and being seen.
16:09So it stayed in the room.
16:12She's a beauty.
16:22She's a beauty.
16:27You hear that?
16:28Any idea why this was in your guitar case, Aaron?
16:48Did you hide it there after you struck Eric?
16:50No.
16:53Aidan said you and he were going to walk away from the band last night.
16:58Why?
16:59We'd been together a few years.
17:01The arguing was getting intense.
17:03You were willing to walk away from the band over a bit of arguing.
17:10Or was it something else?
17:11I didn't approve of the way Eric treated people.
17:16But I didn't kill him.
17:19Sorry to interrupt, boss.
17:20The parents are here.
17:21Where is he?
17:33Can we see him?
17:34Mr and Mrs Dargy.
17:36Did Aaron ever talk to you about his disagreements with Eric?
17:40No.
17:41We raised him to never fight.
17:43It's just we found an ashtray covered in blood, hidden in his guitar case.
17:49I'm sure there's an explanation.
17:51Can I ask you, sir, why are you assuming my son was involved?
17:55What is it about my son exactly?
17:58Rest assured, Mr Dargy, the police are speaking to everyone.
18:02Aaron isn't being accused of anything, but they do need to build a better picture of what happened.
18:07I know my son, Vicar.
18:10He's always been a good child.
18:13Well, he's an adult now, Mrs Dargy.
18:16Life shapes people in different ways.
18:30Ladies, put quite simply,
18:32the bank needs to know the money is in capable hands.
18:38I can assure you we have two sets of those.
18:42Although your business proposition is excellent,
18:45I am afraid the fact remains.
18:48I am only able to authorise the loan with a signature from your husband.
18:54Not doing it.
18:56Is that really the only way?
18:59Or your father?
19:00He's been dead 26 years.
19:01I'm sorry.
19:04You'd be the only one.
19:05My old dad used to take his wages straight to the pub.
19:08I'm not sure he'd have been the best, even if he were around.
19:12This is ridiculous.
19:15Plans A and B may have failed,
19:17but we'll work through the alphabet if we have to.
19:19Capable hands.
19:20Oh, I know.
19:21It's a bit inappropriate, don't you think?
19:45Is the money actually going to his family,
19:50or are you taking a large cut?
19:53Only what I'm owed.
19:55You didn't care about the band at all, did you?
19:57You exploited them.
19:58I put my heart and soul into making them the next big thing.
20:02They were going to be big because of me.
20:04Why did you refuse to pay them what they'd earned?
20:06They didn't understand anything about what it was like to manage a band.
20:09Besides, they were hardly suffering.
20:13I let them get their kicks.
20:15What kicks, exactly?
20:17Eric was a cad.
20:18Made his way around the little groupies.
20:21And that one.
20:23I'm pretty sure she's had them all.
20:25I'm sorry.
20:42A real tragedy.
20:45It shouldn't have happened.
20:50Did you know Eric well?
20:55You do know Aaron, though, don't you?
20:59You leave me alone.
21:10Don't keep me in suspense.
21:12How was it with your parents?
21:14Honestly, Leonard,
21:15I couldn't have arse for it to have gone better.
21:18They told me they were proud of me.
21:19They actually said that.
21:22Mother sent these for the house.
21:25They both said
21:30they can't wait to come and visit.
21:33Oh, my goodness.
21:35We'll have to move some things around.
21:38And definitely a spring clean is required.
21:41And what do you think they'll want for their supper?
21:43I could go to the fancy butchers.
21:44The new one.
21:45But you do have to request in advance.
21:47When can we expect them?
21:48Oh, not for a fortnight or so.
21:50We didn't actually fix a date.
21:51Oh, that's good.
21:52Plenty of time to prepare.
21:53So they know about me being here?
21:58They know you live here, yes.
22:00They do.
22:02I told them you were my lodger.
22:07One thing at a time, eh?
22:09Of course.
22:10I'll put the deal.
22:14Blue or purple?
22:37I like the blue.
22:38Miss Scott.
22:39Blue or purple, boss?
22:44For what?
22:45The dentist.
22:48There's a dress code.
22:51For the dentist.
22:54Might go with purple.
22:57Put them away.
22:58I don't want to clash with what you're wearing.
23:00I'm wearing what you see me in right now.
23:02It's just a piece of paper.
23:04What is?
23:05Her doctor's appointment.
23:07It's on a piece of paper.
23:09I can't seem to find anywhere.
23:10I thought that was in the calendar.
23:12It is.
23:14There's also a letter somewhere.
23:16Yes.
23:16Any news on those pills we found at the crime scene?
23:19Not yet.
23:20Well, let me know as soon as the results come in.
23:25I thought there was a dress.
23:26There was a dress.
23:27But it's too much fuss.
23:29We've an hour to get across town, get married and get back before anyone becomes suspicious.
23:34But you need a dress.
23:35An address for the dentist.
23:38Doctor.
23:38Doctor.
23:39Doctor.
23:39Doctor.
23:39I'll give him 15 years' worth of capable, sodding hands.
23:54Alfie!
23:56No, he's not in!
24:01What are you doing with that?
24:04I was about to drink it.
24:06About to?
24:07Daniel's made up with his parents, only he didn't tell them about us.
24:13Take it, please.
24:18But I have to accept that, don't I?
24:21Do you?
24:23But these things take time.
24:25And how much more time do you think you can give him, Leonard?
24:30After everything you've been through together?
24:32And he doesn't even have the courage.
24:35No, not courage.
24:37Decency.
24:38To tell his parents about you?
24:43No, I'm sorry.
24:45Something's amiss here.
24:48Help me with these, will you?
24:51You're not the only one who needs to stand up for yourself.
24:54The arguing coming from the back room, the female voice.
25:03Do you remember the young woman outside the club?
25:05How could I forget?
25:06Brought back bond memories of a young Cathy throwing up on my brand new shoes.
25:10I just saw her at the vigil.
25:12She's pregnant.
25:13Those pills we found at the crime scene?
25:17They've been tested.
25:20It's paradoxical.
25:21One of its uses is to treat nausea during pregnancy.
25:26She said it shouldn't have happened.
25:32Yeah, I got the feeling she wasn't talking about Eric's death.
25:35Where else might a pregnant woman regret?
25:37Think about it.
25:38Being pregnant?
25:40Or who the father is?
25:44Aaron, we need to know if you took pyridoxine from your parents' pharmacy and gave it to a young woman.
25:50The one I saw you talking to at the gig.
25:52Son, pyridoxine must be directed by a physician.
25:56Why?
25:57If I overdose, it can be fatal.
26:03This is serious, Aaron.
26:05She could be in danger.
26:08It was only the one bottle.
26:11I just wanted to do something to help her.
26:12She was feeling so wretched.
26:14Who is she?
26:16Her name's Iris.
26:17Iris, who is she to you?
26:25She's having my baby.
26:35Iris?
26:37I need you to confirm you didn't take any of those pills that Aaron gave you.
26:44I understand it's a difficult position to find yourself in.
26:47It's only natural to be scared, out of your depth when you are married.
26:53But you shouldn't feel alone.
26:56I'm sure Aaron and his family will support you.
26:58This is my baby.
27:00And I don't want anyone else involved.
27:04No one has taken my child away from me.
27:06I won't let them.
27:07I will do whatever it takes.
27:10I don't care.
27:11But I will not be parted from my child.
27:14Here are 15 years' worth of vicarage budgets I managed on my own.
27:31And two years of Swinnerton's accounts also run single-handed.
27:36I have no doubt, ladies, that you are more than capable.
27:40However, the bank cannot authorise a loan to a woman without a male signatory.
27:47We know.
27:48This is Cousin Colin.
27:57He will be taking a loan out on our behalf.
28:00Hello, Jack.
28:02Brian?
28:03So tell me, Jack...
28:04It's Colin.
28:05Oh, but my apologies, um...
28:09So, Colin...
28:11Oh, sod this!
28:13Of course Jack isn't Colin Chapman.
28:16But behind every Colin is a capable woman, in this case, two.
28:22Listen here.
28:24There is a gap in the market and we can fill it.
28:26We know more about women's fashion than anyone.
28:29We know what women love to wear and what suits them.
28:31And we proved we can handle the finances.
28:33It's the perfect marriage.
28:35Fashion.
28:36And finance.
28:38And you said yourself, it's an excellent business proposition.
28:40We've proved we are beyond capable.
28:43All we need are the bricks.
28:45And we'll build a strong foundation.
28:48So go on.
28:49Chuck us some bricks, will you?
28:53Ahem.
28:54I wish you the best with Cece's Boutique.
29:11With Cece's Boutique.
29:32Aaron, I saw you with Iris on the night of the gig.
29:34Eric, it looked like you were having a heated discussion.
29:39What was that about?
29:43Were you arguing about Eric?
29:46Was she coming to see him and not just you?
29:48He used her.
29:49He used her.
29:51In what way?
29:52Eric could have anyone he wanted.
29:54He led Iris on.
29:56Making her believe he wanted a relationship.
29:58Even though she was with you.
30:01It was only after one thing.
30:04Your parents say you wouldn't hurt a soul.
30:07But jealousy is a powerful emotion, Aaron.
30:10Did you kill Eric because Iris was in love with him
30:14while pregnant with your child?
30:16No.
30:18I didn't do anything.
30:20Out of jealousy.
30:21I didn't do anything.
30:25Aaron, are you the father of Iris' baby?
30:28Or are you trying to spare her the shame
30:30of being pregnant and alone?
30:31Someone doesn't feel right.
30:40Well, Aaron kills Eric out of jealousy.
30:43Seems out of character.
30:45Just want to check the case, Barnes, again.
30:49Now, where the hell did she book up?
30:57Oh, no.
30:58What is it?
31:01What?
31:05Geordie?
31:17Are you sure about this?
31:20It's the only way.
31:22You know it is.
31:24It has to be just the two of us.
31:27That way we can carry on as we are
31:28without anyone causing any problems for us.
31:31Mr. Peters and Miss Scott?
31:35This way, please.
31:41Oh, hold your horses.
31:43What?
31:48This isn't how you want to do it, is it?
31:50Really?
31:51It's the only way.
31:55Getting married to Cathy was the best day of my life.
31:59If you two are going to do this,
32:01I want you to look back on it like I do.
32:05Like, come on.
32:08You deserve to enjoy it.
32:09It's all downhill from here.
32:24Wait.
32:27I can't.
32:29What?
32:29I can't get married in this.
32:32It's funny.
32:33Looks like they were thinking the same thing.
32:36Cover his eye!
32:38Get him inside!
32:44You come with us, love.
32:45We've got just the something blue.
32:47Here we go.
33:07We are gathered here today
33:28against the proper protocol
33:31to marry these two wonderful people.
33:34They really are high promise.
33:41Who gives this woman away?
33:45That would be me.
33:53Boss.
33:59And now for the rings?
34:03Best man?
34:08That would also be me.
34:10That would also be me.
34:17Before God and in the presence of us all,
34:22Lawrence and Jennifer have joined hands and made their solemn vows,
34:29promising lifelong faithfulness to each other.
34:31In the name of God, I declare them to be husband and wife.
34:38You may not.
34:39You may not.
34:45Yeah.
34:47Yeah.
34:48Nats.
34:49You cry, hmm?
34:50No.
34:51You.
34:52It's just dust in here.
34:53It is dust in here.
34:54It is dust in.
34:59It is dust in.
35:00It is dust in.
35:01It is dust in.
35:06It is dust in.
35:13It is dust in here.
35:15It is dust in.
35:16It is dust in there.
35:17It is dust in here.
35:18It is dust in here.
35:19I couldn't agree with you.
35:26Congratulations, you two.
35:27Thank you, Elfie.
35:30Suppose we better get back to work?
35:32No.
35:34I think we can stretch through a couple of pints first.
35:36You're the boss.
35:37First round's on me, El.
35:41My old mum would have loved that.
35:44She didn't have much, but she always put me first.
35:46Of course she did.
35:48You always want your kids to have everything you never had.
35:51And you'll fight tooth and nail for it and all.
35:54Yeah, that was her.
35:55One time, a kid at school broke all my pencils in half.
35:59When I went home and told her, I couldn't believe the rage in her.
36:03That's it.
36:06That's exactly it.
36:15It was you, wasn't it, Iris?
36:18You killed Eric.
36:21You did it to protect your baby.
36:25Aaron lied about being the father because he couldn't bear to see a pregnant woman go to jail.
36:30When in actual fact, the baby is Eric's.
36:35Is that what you and Aaron were arguing over, the night Eric died?
36:44You wanted to tell Eric he was the father and not Aaron?
36:48I went to tell Eric that I was keeping the baby.
36:52I wasn't going to tell anyone he was the father.
36:55He wasn't happy with that, was he?
36:58He said that I'd end up blackmailing him, or coming after him for money, that I would hold it against him somehow.
37:06But I told him I didn't care about the money.
37:09Only my baby.
37:11So how did Eric end up the way he did?
37:14He just started shouting, saying how everybody was ruining his life.
37:20Laurel, and not booking London, and I'm this bastard child.
37:27Did he get physical with you, Iris?
37:37I was so scared he'd heard the baby, so I pushed him off me, and then I don't know what came over me, but I was so angry, so, so angry, that I took the ashtray and hit him.
37:54Aaron.
37:57Aaron must have found you just after that.
38:01I'm going to prison tonight.
38:10They'll take my baby away from me.
38:15I'm sure the judge will take everything into consideration.
38:19Everything I've done, it was all to protect my child.
38:23When my child is old enough, will you make sure that they know I've did it for them?
38:39And will you tell them that I love them so very, very much?
38:44Oh, my...
38:46It's okay.
38:47I'm so sorry.
38:48I completely forgot.
38:50I guessed you might have got caught up with other matters.
38:55Well, how about tomorrow?
38:56Can we do it tomorrow?
38:57Alfie.
38:58Or lunch?
38:59We can do lunch next Saturday.
39:00No, wait.
39:01I have a christening on Saturday.
39:02Alfie.
39:03I came here to tell you that it's fine.
39:05Oh, it's not fine.
39:06I need to make it up to you.
39:07You don't.
39:08But I want to.
39:09Let's...
39:10Let's face it.
39:11Your heart might be in it, but your head's not there.
39:12It's fine.
39:13It's fine.
39:14It's fine.
39:15It's fine.
39:16I need to make it up to you.
39:17You don't.
39:18But I want to.
39:19Let's face it.
39:20Your heart might be in it, but your head's not there.
39:39Whatever it is that you're going through right now, it's...
39:46It's getting in the way of us.
39:49But I do want it.
40:01You work it out.
40:05You don't strike me as the kind of person who lets things hold you back, Alfie.
40:11Meg.
40:19I can't keep sweeping this under the carpet.
40:28Agreed.
40:30Can't be tripping over baggage.
40:36I owe it to myself and to everyone around me who I care about to open this letter.
40:43I think so.
40:44What's the worst it could say?
40:51That she didn't want me.
40:55But I'm prepared for that.
40:58I've had it in the back of my mind for years.
41:02You can do this.
41:06I'd rather you did.
41:10Sure?
41:11Sure?
41:14Positive.
41:18Give it here.
41:41My dearest.
41:50Never question if you were loved.
41:53Make no mistake.
41:55You are a blessing.
41:57And you deserve to live a full and happy life.
42:02Forgive me.
42:04But I simply cannot give you that.
42:07I have nothing and nobody.
42:11Even though we will no longer be together,
42:16I will think of you every day until I die.
42:21I know you will make the world a better place simply by being in it.
42:30May your light shine bright, my son.
42:32Thank you, Trudy.
42:33Thank you, Trudy.
42:47Thank you, Trudy.
42:55Well, this looks wonderful.
42:57Oh, it's nothing special.
42:59Wine.
43:01Oh, not for me.
43:03Don't be silly, we're celebrating.
43:05Honestly, I'm fine with water.
43:06Don't be such a bore.
43:08I'm not.
43:10So have a drink.
43:14See, now look what you've done.
43:15It's all such a mess.
43:17Calm down.
43:18I didn't want any.
43:19What's wrong with you?
43:20Nothing.
43:21Why the almighty fuss then?
43:23I've been drinking too much.
43:27Far too much.
43:29Depending on it.
43:31In fact, since my father died.
43:35Oh, Leonard.
43:37He left this whiskey.
43:40That's where it all began.
43:42All the feelings they just...
43:44took over and drink just seemed to make it all less...
43:49loud.
43:52I didn't recognize myself.
44:01Why didn't you tell me about your father?
44:05Because...
44:08What kind of son doesn't get invited to his own father's funeral?
44:13I was mortified.
44:15And then every day it just got harder and harder to tell you.
44:19You should have called me.
44:21And ruined your perfect family time.
44:24I thought you were happy for me.
44:26Of course I'm happy for you.
44:28I'm happy for you and yet sad.
44:31For me.
44:33After everything we've been through.
44:35The fact you still can't bring yourself to tell your parents about us
44:39means there is yet another person in my life who is utterly ashamed of me.
44:44I am not ashamed of you.
44:47So why won't you tell them?
44:49All this soul searching you're supposed to have done.
44:52It's complicated.
44:53Life is, Daniel.
44:54I don't know what you want from me, Leonard.
44:55Really?
44:57Really?
44:59The sacrifices I have made for you.
45:02I stood by you after you ran after that man and his ridiculous cult.
45:06I even went to prison for you.
45:09And yet you still, you still cannot stand by me.
45:13And that is all I want, Daniel.
45:16Acceptance.
45:18Acknowledgement of what we've been through together.
45:20No, that is too much to ask of you then.
45:21Of course not.
45:22Of course not.
45:23Of course not.
45:24Of course not.
45:25Of course not.
45:26Of course not.
45:27Of course not.
45:28Of course not.
45:30Of course not.
45:31Of course not.
45:32Of course not.
45:33Of course not.
45:34Of course not.
45:37Of course not.
45:39Of course not.
45:40And tomorrow evening, join us at 20 past seven
