00:07:07Sorry
00:07:17Okay
00:07:26All right
00:07:44I'm shit
00:07:47I know I am
00:07:59Can I see Pincher?
00:08:03Your manager with Donkey?
00:08:09For fuck's sake, Kitty
00:08:14Come inside
00:08:21You sure?
00:08:30What about Tom?
00:08:33If he finds out I haven't been here again
00:08:35Well, I'll have to cross that bridge when I come to it
00:08:38Go on
00:08:40You know where everything is?
00:08:42Your bedroom's just as you left it
00:08:43And I need to be in bed, so
00:08:46Help yourself
00:08:59What the fuck is this?
00:09:04Oh
00:09:05Oh
00:09:06No
00:09:08I was just
00:09:09I wasn't
00:09:10Don't you ever
00:09:18Don't you ever
00:09:34Don't you ever
00:09:37Yeah?
00:09:37She won't have one
00:09:38I need to keep moving, I'm not lolling about watching game shows over the next three months
00:09:42They have actually discharged you, weren't they?
00:09:44Not just escaped
00:09:45Did you get that door open?
00:09:47Yeah, yeah
00:09:47You can let me out?
00:09:48No
00:09:48Oh
00:09:50Have they caught the little bastards?
00:09:52Have you heard out?
00:09:54Is my mum alright?
00:09:56Yeah, yeah
00:09:57She won't shut up about how she never wanted you to join police in first place, but
00:10:01Yeah, well she was right
00:10:03For wrong reasons
00:10:04She was right
00:10:07Anyway, first things first
00:10:08You missed a right load of excitement last night
00:10:11Why?
00:10:12Did Holly not text you?
00:10:14No
00:10:14No
00:10:15Come on Nisha, let's get you inside
00:10:15Oh my god, I thought she'd have said something to ya
00:11:06Have you spoken to Yvonne?
00:11:09No, just Jess
00:11:11You might find Yvonne less forgiving than the rest of us
00:11:14Why?
00:11:15Oh, just that she prides herself on ever going back on her decision once it's been made
00:11:21And it was a big decision
00:11:31I didn't...
00:11:34I didn't come just to apologise
00:11:37There was a...
00:11:41You know what I told ya?
00:11:42On...
00:11:43Saturday about when I were twelve
00:11:46Yeah
00:11:47Can I talk to you about it?
00:11:49Course you can, Kitty
00:11:53Saturday was so stupid everything happened on Saturday
00:11:58So this is when we were at school before we went on
00:12:00This friend...
00:12:02Acquaintance...
00:12:03Dickhead...
00:12:04Turned up and told me
00:12:05That my dad has been extradited from Morocco
00:12:08Did you know that?
00:12:10No
00:12:10Yeah, three months ago
00:12:12I was in Wakefield High Security Prison
00:12:20So those three men I told you about
00:12:22I never knew their real names
00:12:23But they ran with me dad's crew and they hung around at our house
00:12:25They all did
00:12:27So what I'm thinking is, me dad might remember them
00:12:30I mean, he might not
00:12:31He might be losing his marbles
00:12:32Maybe that's where they copped him
00:12:34He might not even see me
00:12:35But...
00:12:36I'm thinking if I put in a request for a visiting order
00:12:39Did he know?
00:12:41What...
00:12:41These men were doing to you?
00:12:43No
00:12:44God, no
00:12:45And I know, I know
00:12:46Even if I got their names I might never find them
00:12:48But the thing I'm thinking is
00:12:49If I could find them surely
00:12:50I could prove it, couldn't I?
00:12:55If I could get Tom's DNA and theirs
00:12:58Then Tom is living proof that one of them
00:13:00Got me pregnant thirty-one years ago
00:13:03Well if they've ever been arrested
00:13:04The police will have the DNA on file anyway
00:13:07So if we got to court this is the thing
00:13:11They...
00:13:12They...
00:13:12Couldn't make out that I was like...
00:13:16Some...
00:13:17Wild child who was asking for it, couldn't they?
00:13:21Because I'm worried that's what people think when they...
00:13:24Look at me when they don't know my name
00:13:29I just...
00:13:31I think that's what Tom thinks
00:13:35They can't try and...
00:13:37Just cobble some defence together based on that, can they?
00:13:41There is no defence
00:13:43For the rape of a twelve-year-old
00:13:46You've just got to be prepared for how you'd feel
00:13:48If it all went down the tubes on a technicality
00:13:50Or if you've got a...
00:13:52Jury full of idiots
00:13:55Which happens more often than you like to think
00:13:56But yeah...
00:14:00These men really ought to pay for what they did to you
00:14:08Did Gavin do that to you last night?
00:14:10Yeah
00:14:13Have they charged him yet?
00:14:15No
00:14:17Right
00:14:18I'm gonna get dressed
00:14:19Then I'll drive you up to Halifax, Nick
00:14:22That's a new assault with visible injuries
00:14:24They need to go and arrest him
00:14:25They what arrest him? They didn't last time
00:14:27Last time?
00:14:27You couldn't prove it
00:14:28This is evidence
00:14:30We all saw you without injuries
00:14:32At the rehearsal
00:14:33Of all your clothes in bin bags still in his flat
00:14:36Yeah
00:14:37Right, well
00:14:38You need those as well then, don't you?
00:14:44No
00:14:47You need those as well?
00:14:50No
00:14:57I can't
00:14:59I can't
00:14:59You need those as well
00:14:59You need those as well?
00:15:01I need those as well
00:15:02I need those as well
00:15:03You need them as well
00:15:05Yes
00:15:05Yeah
00:15:05Your
00:15:06Like
00:16:39It is, it says.
00:16:40Your destination is on your right.
00:16:47It looks deserted.
00:16:50You're not going in there.
00:16:52Look.
00:16:54It is.
00:16:57Oh.
00:17:05Hi, this is Fern.
00:17:07I can't get to the phone.
00:17:08Please leave a message.
00:17:15Your phone.
00:17:17Oh, you're here.
00:17:20Yeah, well, I decided if anyone's going to cock it up in the guitar department, it should
00:17:24be me.
00:17:25We're just through here.
00:17:26Let me show you.
00:17:28Well, Jess is nearly finished.
00:17:30And he's great.
00:17:31John, the sound guy.
00:17:33He's so nice and he's making some really good suggestions.
00:17:36I think we're all a little bit in love with him.
00:17:47Yeah, John!
00:17:49Aren't you clever?
00:17:50Being able to make me sound like I know what I'm doing.
00:17:52Ah, you see who we've got there in the end.
00:17:54You're a rock star, baby.
00:17:56Who's up next?
00:17:57Holly.
00:17:58Hopefully.
00:17:59Ooh!
00:18:00Oh, Yvonne!
00:18:01Here we are, John, Holly and Yvonne.
00:18:03So you don't need to do the guitar section after all.
00:18:05I was going to fill in for you.
00:18:08Hello.
00:18:09How do you do?
00:18:10Hi.
00:18:11Kitty.
00:18:12Yvonne.
00:18:13I've heard such great things about you.
00:18:15Just now, from Beth.
00:18:18Oh!
00:18:19Lovely.
00:18:21Yeah, so I'm the bass player, but I'm not very good.
00:18:25In fact, I'm really quite bad at it.
00:18:27To the point of it's probably really embarrassing for you to have to listen to me.
00:18:32Oh, shut up.
00:18:33You're fine.
00:18:33She's great.
00:18:34You're up next, babe.
00:18:36Why?
00:18:37I'm not easily embarrassed.
00:18:38Well, that's handy.
00:18:40For you.
00:18:41She's only been playing for seven weeks.
00:18:42She's actually really good.
00:18:44Considering.
00:18:45Yeah, well, Beth's played keyboards all her life and Jess has been learning the drums for
00:18:50longer than she let on and my sister learned to play guitar at school and Kitty.
00:18:55So, yeah, I'm the really crap one.
00:18:58Maybe someone else should go next.
00:19:00Maybe my sister.
00:19:02Maybe I should go last.
00:19:03Maybe I should, you know, come back later.
00:19:04Why are you talking so much?
00:19:06Well, it would be better if we can get the bass track down next.
00:19:09I mean, I don't want to make you feel uneasy.
00:19:11Okay.
00:19:12That would be counterproductive, but yeah, it would be better if we can.
00:19:14So, yeah.
00:19:15Yeah.
00:19:15Tell you what.
00:19:16Let's just do it.
00:19:18Let's get it done.
00:19:19Oh, I'm shaking.
00:19:21Look.
00:19:21How weird is that?
00:19:23You know, I do think I've met you before.
00:19:28Really?
00:19:29Yeah.
00:19:29You do just look familiar.
00:19:33So, have you ever been arrested?
00:19:36What for?
00:19:37I don't know.
00:19:37Anything.
00:19:37But she's a police officer.
00:19:39I mean, maybe that's why you've met before?
00:19:40Was.
00:19:41A police officer?
00:19:42Was.
00:19:43Really?
00:19:44That's funny.
00:19:44I would have had you down as a, I don't know, an archivist, maybe.
00:19:52Gosh.
00:19:53Okay.
00:19:54So, do we do this in here or?
00:19:57No.
00:19:58You need to go into the studio.
00:20:00Yeah.
00:20:01I'll show you.
00:20:10She fancies him.
00:20:12I've seen it before.
00:20:13She starts talking high velocity garbage.
00:20:16I am gonna get some coffees.
00:20:18Does anybody want something?
00:20:19Yes, please.
00:20:19Yeah, go on then.
00:20:20Black two sugars.
00:20:21Er, Jess.
00:20:22Usual.
00:20:23Yeah.
00:20:23I'll come with you.
00:20:26You need your arse kicking.
00:20:28Yeah?
00:20:29Or you need a therapeutic.
00:20:31Oh crap.
00:20:32So.
00:20:33You're a police officer.
00:20:34Well, that is, that is very interesting.
00:20:36What have I done?
00:20:37You said you were a senior lecturer at Huddersfield University.
00:20:41Jojo.
00:20:41Yeah.
00:20:42That's because I am.
00:20:43In the music department.
00:20:46Okay, well.
00:20:47Senior police officer sometimes puts people off, so that's all.
00:20:51Er, okay.
00:20:51But you didn't have to pretend you didn't know me.
00:20:53Well, you know I did that, don't you?
00:20:54Er, no.
00:20:55No, I don't.
00:20:57Because...
00:20:58They all know.
00:21:00They all know I had a date with this bloke who wants me to lick his arse.
00:21:03Oh my God.
00:21:04Is he?
00:21:05Oh no, no, no.
00:21:06He's Jack the Rimmer.
00:21:07He's Jack the Rimmer.
00:21:10He's the one who wanted Holly to lick his arse.
00:21:12They'd have smelled a rat.
00:21:14They'd have got it out of me.
00:21:15They're formidable.
00:21:17All of them.
00:21:18Oh my God.
00:21:19What's wrong?
00:21:19Just er, let's just get this done as painlessly as possible.
00:21:24Okay?
00:21:26Here.
00:21:26I'll do it.
00:21:27Yeah, alright.
00:21:27Alright, alright.
00:21:28Okay.
00:21:38She left him on hold.
00:21:39She...
00:21:41John, erm, I'm just going to go and get some coffees.
00:21:44Would you like a coffee?
00:21:45Er, yeah.
00:21:46Lovely.
00:21:46Thanks, Beth.
00:21:47Flat white, please.
00:21:47Sugar?
00:21:48Er, no.
00:21:49No, no, no, thanks.
00:21:50No, no, he's sweet enough already.
00:21:52Holly, can you hear me?
00:21:53Okay, so I'm just going to play you Jessie's drum track
00:21:56and then you're just going to come in where you come in.
00:21:59Okay?
00:22:00Oh my God.
00:22:01He seems so powerful.
00:22:04Watch out there, innit?
00:22:10Tom?
00:22:10Mum.
00:22:11I've left Fern.
00:22:12If what?
00:22:13Has she spoken to you?
00:22:15Well, I had a miss- called some of it.
00:22:17What's happened?
00:22:17We had a really gross argument.
00:22:19And she was saying really stupid things.
00:22:21And basically she's now told me to get out, so...
00:22:23Why are you the one leaving?
00:22:24Because Trisha's there.
00:22:25Trisha's moved in.
00:22:26Trisha has.
00:22:28Yes.
00:22:28And now I've got a fire.
00:22:29Where are you at work?
00:22:29I'm going to work!
00:22:30I don't feel like going to work, Mum.
00:22:32I feel like driving straight into a fucking wall!
00:22:34Look.
00:22:35Come on.
00:22:36What was it about?
00:22:37Pity, obviously.
00:22:38What else?
00:22:39What about Kitty?
00:22:40Alright, so I was trying to explain to Fern
00:22:43that Graham is just of a generation where
00:22:46speaking in a certain way used to be...
00:22:49You know, people just did it, didn't they?
00:22:51Men.
00:22:51Yeah.
00:22:52Men did.
00:22:52Men, yes.
00:22:53And that it's hard for people, men, of that generation,
00:22:56not to let the occasional stupid things slip out now and again.
00:23:00And I was just repeating something Graham had said
00:23:02when he was flailing around desperately trying to justify himself.
00:23:05Well, what did he say?
00:23:06That some women...
00:23:09That some women would take what he said as a compliment.
00:23:13The first bit, obviously, not the second bit.
00:23:16Yeah, they wouldn't.
00:23:16Yes, I know that.
00:23:18Oh, my God.
00:23:18Are you even listening?
00:23:19You're like her.
00:23:21I was repeating what Graham said.
00:23:24I was not expressing my own opinion.
00:23:26Yeah, calm down.
00:23:27Yeah, you calm down.
00:23:29I've just had to come to terms with the fact that my father
00:23:32was some fucking paedophile rapist
00:23:34and, oh, my mother was a 12-year-old whore.
00:23:37Because you love as always.
00:23:38You fucking calm down, all right?
00:23:40You fucking calm down.
00:23:41Ouch.
00:23:42I'm gonna have to come and stay at yours,
00:23:43because I'm not staying here.
00:23:46Yeah...
00:23:46Well, you can.
00:23:47Yeah, of course you can.
00:23:49Erm...
00:23:50But...
00:23:50Oh, God.
00:23:53You should know, though,
00:23:55Pity is also staying with me again.
00:23:58What?
00:24:00And I am not going to kick her out again.
00:24:03I can't.
00:24:04I'm sorry.
00:24:06Tom?
00:24:11OK.
00:24:12Is that OK?
00:24:14Yeah.
00:24:15Yeah, I'll ring my friend.
00:24:16We'll see if I can say it is.
00:24:17They've just had a baby,
00:24:18and there's hardly any room,
00:24:19but you don't need to worry about that, do you?
00:24:21Oh!
00:24:21You don't have to do that.
00:24:22I didn't mean that.
00:24:23Bye.
00:24:24Tom?
00:24:34What's up?
00:24:36It's Tom and Fern.
00:24:37They've had a big bust up.
00:24:39He's moved out.
00:24:41Shit.
00:24:47Cam and Miranda have entered the building!
00:24:49After they finally found it.
00:24:51No Nisha?
00:24:52I tried.
00:24:53I'm so depressed.
00:24:55I can't get dressed.
00:24:57Having trouble hiding my lack of interest.
00:25:00Blood stains pouring like rain.
00:25:02Borderline anemic from bleeding all day.
00:25:06Time's waning.
00:25:07Feels like I'm fading.
00:25:08Doctor told me to stop complaining.
00:25:10If it happened to blokes, God only knows.
00:25:14We'd be getting HRT from Tesco.
00:25:16I'm invisible.
00:25:18Am I untouchable?
00:25:21Am I unlovable?
00:25:24Are you more uncomfortable?
00:25:27And I'm seeing red, red, red, red, red, red, red.
00:25:30Red, red, red, red, red, red, red.
00:25:33Red, red, red, red, red, red, red.
00:25:39Red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red.
00:25:51How old did you know?
00:25:54We heard you.
00:25:56Over the thing when you went into the studio.
00:26:06The building!
00:26:07The building!
00:26:07Dead, red, Red, red, red.
00:26:11A home out of the scene!
00:26:14People have been having those,
00:26:14They were literally been missing.
00:26:15The buildingThis fantastic light!
00:26:16The building!
00:26:16What didn't you see rejoice for?げustart
00:26:35literally lost for sure. Could be Erfolgrible.
00:26:35It's worse.
00:26:49I'm sorry, which way you going, Holly?
00:26:51She's with me.
00:26:52I'll go get the car and spring back by here,
00:26:54if you want to keep an eye on the gear.
00:26:56He is gorgeous.
00:26:57Yeah, yeah.
00:26:58Yeah, I mean, I'd lick his arse.
00:27:00No, you wouldn't.
00:27:01Well, I won't kick him out of bed.
00:27:02Good to know.
00:27:03You can tell him yourself.
00:27:05Ooh! You're beautiful. Anyway, have a nice evening.
00:27:09See you later. Bye. Well done. Bye!
00:27:12Yeah, I'm not here. I'm just waiting for Yvonne.
00:27:18So... you're a police officer?
00:27:21Yeah, I can see what you're thinking.
00:27:23Do you know you can dislocate someone's shoulder with a pair of handcuffs so you know how to use them
00:27:26properly?
00:27:30Do you think we got off on the wrong foot?
00:27:32Er, nope. I thought we got off on the right foot. Actually, I thought we were okay and then...
00:27:38Wow! Yeah, thanks for that.
00:27:41Yeah, well... maybe it's a generational thing.
00:27:44What? Arse-licking?
00:27:48What I still don't get is what you thought I would get out of that.
00:27:51Other than, dare I say, a nasty taste in my mouth.
00:27:55It's the pleasure of giving someone else pleasure.
00:27:58And some women do like it for that reason.
00:28:00Look, I've done some research and I couldn't find anyone that did.
00:28:04Yeah, well, like I say, maybe it's a...
00:28:05Generational thing, yeah.
00:28:07Just us old biddies that don't want.
00:28:11Doesn't that tell you something, though?
00:28:14That women of a certain age have outgrown the need to pretend to like doing something that, in fact, they
00:28:20don't like doing at all.
00:28:21Well...
00:28:23So, okay. So, erm...
00:28:28What do you like doing?
00:28:51Oh, my God, isn't that his car?
00:28:54Right, I'm not coming in.
00:28:56Yes, you bloody are.
00:29:12My friend said it'd be difficult because of the baby, so...
00:29:18Is it all right if I have a bath?
00:29:20Of course.
00:29:21Do you want something to eat, Kitty?
00:29:26I'll give you a shower when it's ready.
00:29:30I'm going to open a bottle of wine.
00:29:32Would you like some?
00:29:41So, when did Tricia move in?
00:29:43Last Sunday.
00:29:47You know, I know this is hard for you.
00:29:49Of course it is, but...
00:29:52It doesn't help anyone.
00:29:53Least of all you.
00:29:55If you...
00:29:56If you keep taking it out on Kitty.
00:29:59We've raked up a lot of trauma for her.
00:30:01And I know you think she's tough, but...
00:30:04Well, she's not really handling it very well just now.
00:30:09Any more than you are.
00:30:13And...
00:30:14You really can't call her a...
00:30:1812-year-old whore.
00:30:23That's...
00:30:24It's just wrong-headed.
00:30:25And pulling her to bits can't be the way forward, Tom.
00:30:28For your own sanity.
00:30:30As much as hers.
00:30:44As much as hers.
00:30:49And almost immediately I felt sorry.
00:30:53Cause I didn't think this would happen again.
00:30:57No matter what I could do or say.
00:31:00Just that I didn't think this would happen again.
00:31:04With or without my best intentions.
00:31:07And whatever happened to a boyfriend.
00:31:11The kind of guy who tries to win you over.
00:31:15And whatever happened to a boyfriend.
00:31:18The kind of guy who makes love cause he's in it.
00:31:22I want a boyfriend.
00:31:25I want a boyfriend.
00:31:28I want all that stupid old shit.
00:31:32Letters and sodas.
00:31:35Letters and sodas.
00:31:39You got up out of bed.
00:31:42You said you...
00:31:44Why does no one tell you that giving birth is like shitting a pineapple?
00:31:47They call it the gift of life.
00:31:48But my only gift is some stranger ripping me open hole to hole.
00:31:51Don't give me all that endorphins bullshit.
00:31:54I'm not having any fun.
00:31:56You're not having any fun.
00:31:57No one is having any fun.
00:31:59I'm trying my best not to shit myself while you point a camera at my fanny.
00:32:02It's not cute.
00:32:03It's not beautiful.
00:32:04I'm not glowing.
00:32:05Do I look happy?
00:32:06It's like Armageddon.
00:32:08It's like that scene from Alien.
00:32:09It feels like I'm having an exorcism.
00:32:11It's a miracle I'm still alive.
00:32:14Someone's gotta do it.
00:32:15Someone's gotta do it.
00:32:17Someone's gotta do it.
00:32:19Guess it's gonna be me.
00:32:21Someone's gotta do it.
00:32:23Someone's gotta do it.
00:32:25It's coming again.
00:32:31And this is the next bit.
00:32:32And that's the bit I'm feeling like we've gone down a rabbit hole with it.
00:32:38Like if that is the giving birth bit.
00:32:39The point where you're actually shitting a pineapple.
00:32:41It needs to be wilder.
00:32:43Like maybe I should scream or a...
00:32:45Can you scream?
00:32:47Can I scream?
00:32:48Like a banshee baby.
00:32:50No it needs to be...
00:32:52Like a primal giving birth type.
00:32:54It shouldn't be.
00:32:55It should be beyond words.
00:32:56Okay.
00:32:57Maybe we could work up a big screamy guitar solo for Yvonne
00:33:00and that big screamy pedal she's got.
00:33:02Has Yvonne had any children?
00:33:03I don't know why.
00:33:04Well obviously she's birthed a lot of babies but...
00:33:07Oh yeah I know.
00:33:08Don't actually know she's dropped any herself.
00:33:10What did...
00:33:13What?
00:33:14Now go on.
00:33:16Do you remember what Tom looked like?
00:33:20Just after he was born?
00:33:25Um...
00:33:29Like a baby I suppose.
00:33:35With these tiny little fingernails.
00:33:41These tiny little ears.
00:33:46All...
00:33:48So perfect.
00:33:53I couldn't stop looking at him.
00:34:06I didn't think I wanted him until he turned up.
00:34:10And then...
00:34:11When he'd gone...
00:34:16It was like...
00:34:20Part of me had gone missing.
00:34:24Like part of me...
00:34:26Had gone with him like...
00:34:29Physically.
00:34:32Part of me.
00:34:38I suppose...
00:34:41I used to get upset because he cried a lot.
00:34:45In those first few months.
00:34:47It was colic.
00:34:49Obviously.
00:34:49And we dealt with that.
00:34:52But...
00:34:53I got the idea in my head that he was crying for his mum.
00:34:57For his real mum.
00:35:00For you.
00:35:01And I couldn't make it stop.
00:35:04Night after night for months.
00:35:09And it broke my heart.
00:35:10I read to him.
00:35:13Sang to him.
00:35:15Took him out in his buggy in the middle of the night.
00:35:19But didn't stop.
00:35:21And then one day.
00:35:23It just did.
00:35:26I wish I'd known.
00:35:29That you got him.
00:35:32I used to wonder.
00:35:34What sort of life he was having.
00:35:38And if he was alright.
00:35:41And what if he wasn't.
00:35:46Thank God it was you.
00:35:51Oh my God.
00:35:52I'm going to be late for work.
00:35:57Tom.
00:35:57Hello.
00:36:00Good morning.
00:36:01I'm off to work.
00:36:02I'm late.
00:36:04You're not going to work?
00:36:07I've run in sick.
00:36:09Really?
00:36:10Okay.
00:36:11Are you sick?
00:36:12No.
00:36:13I just...
00:36:15Okay.
00:36:18I really have got to go.
00:36:24Erm...
00:36:24Will you be alright?
00:36:29I'll try and not be late back.
00:36:31Alright?
00:36:33Just go for a walk.
00:36:34Get some fresh air.
00:36:38Bye bye.
00:36:38Bye bye kitty.
00:36:53Bye bye kitty.
00:36:55I want you to tell me what happened when I was born.
00:36:59Yeah?
00:37:00Well how about you start being nice to me then?
00:37:02If you don't tell me the truth I'm thinking all the worst things.
00:37:04Do you understand that?
00:37:05That I need to know where I come from.
00:37:08Well I wish I could sugar coat it for you, but I can't!
00:37:13That's why I didn't ever want to get into it.
00:37:18Of course you wouldn't know.
00:37:23Okay.
00:37:25Well I had a pretty weird childhood.
00:37:27I had four brothers all older than me.
00:37:28I was an accident, an afterthought, a nuisance.
00:37:31So I grew up in this world of men.
00:37:33Men who made a living out of violence and drugs and porn.
00:37:37Well you've heard the podcast, a more delightful bunch of cunts you could never wish to meet.
00:37:41Could you just fucking sit down?
00:37:56My mum disappeared when I were nine.
00:37:58She fell out with me dad.
00:37:59My dad was not someone to fall out with.
00:38:02I was told she'd met someone else and cleared off, but I don't know.
00:38:06I don't think she would have left me, but I don't know.
00:38:12So I grew up in this house full of blokes.
00:38:15Big house.
00:38:16Sort of house you could get lost in.
00:38:18And there was always people there.
00:38:20Men.
00:38:21Me dad's crew.
00:38:21I'd be trying to get me breakfast before school and have adult milk.
00:38:27Anyway, this one time there were these three fellas.
00:38:29They weren't me dad's regular crew.
00:38:30He must have got them in for some particular job, I don't know.
00:38:36And I had this friend at school.
00:38:40She used to come home with me sometimes.
00:38:44And he wrote these...
00:38:47Three fellas took a shine to us.
00:38:51And they fed us with cigarettes and...
00:38:56Toblerone and...
00:38:58Alcohol.
00:39:00Obviously we didn't know any better, we just thought it were funny.
00:39:09And then one time my friend said...
00:39:12She wasn't coming anymore.
00:39:14And I didn't know why.
00:39:18It was only afterwards.
00:39:22But I assume these...
00:39:28This...
00:39:29One bloke had done something to her or said something to her.
00:39:34Anyway, after she stopped coming...
00:39:39He started on me.
00:39:44And I had nowhere to hide.
00:39:57I know what you think, mate.
00:40:01Same as everybody else.
00:40:14But that is me.
00:40:16Age 12, smiling, pretending that it wasn't happening.
00:40:29It went on for months.
00:40:34I didn't know his real name.
00:40:35I don't know how old he was.
00:40:36He was a lot older than me.
00:40:38It's probably only 27, 28, but that is old enough when you're 12, isn't it?
00:40:44And I didn't tell anyone because...
00:40:49There was no one to tell.
00:40:52And even if there had been, I don't know that I would have, because it's the kind of thing that...
00:40:58Once they've done it...
00:41:02Once you've escaped...
00:41:07You don't want to think about it again.
00:41:11Until you have to.
00:41:17Until the next time.
00:41:20Until the next time.
00:41:27But you know...
00:41:30Shit happens.
00:41:48I don't know.
00:41:49I don't know.
00:41:49I don't know.
00:41:49I don't know.
00:41:50I don't know.
00:41:50I don't know.
00:41:51I don't know.
00:41:53I don't know.
00:41:53I don't know.
00:41:55I don't know.
00:42:11Will you tell me, Mum, that I've gone back to Sheffield?
00:42:17Can do.
00:42:32Do I look like him?
00:42:37I don't know.
00:42:41Do I remind you of him?
00:42:50No.
00:42:57Do I look like him?
00:43:40Do I look like him?
00:43:41Listen.
00:43:43I understand anger, and I understand why you're angry with me.
00:43:48Because who else can you be angry with?
00:43:50I do get it.
00:43:52I don't like it, but I get it.
00:43:57But all my life I've lurched from one stupid thing to the next.
00:44:01Alcohol, drugs, idiotic relationships, and it's only now I've realised it's because I have been angry.
00:44:09So angry because of what happened to me.
00:44:14Like when I trashed that car that I'm probably going to go to prison for.
00:44:18That was me.
00:44:20Age 12.
00:44:23Trying to smash the fucking world to bits.
00:44:31I am on your side.
00:44:35I wish to God you were mine.
00:44:38I wish to God you were mine.
00:44:54I wish to God you were mine.
00:45:22Fuckin' hell.
00:45:48His Majesty's chocolate.
00:45:50Thanks.
00:45:51You couldn't remember him.
00:45:52He hasn't lost his marbles.
00:45:54I need to describe him as a...
00:45:56flicker, vague memory, but no names.
00:45:59And he starts going on.
00:46:00Why didn't you tell me?
00:46:02I kept asking you who it was.
00:46:03I'd have ripped their cocks off.
00:46:05Well, it's bollocks.
00:46:09I might have misremembered their nicknames.
00:46:11I don't know.
00:46:11Well, she can get Tom's DNA.
00:46:14Sure, but I want all three of them.
00:46:17Not just...
00:46:18the one that, you know, actually hit the jackpot.
00:46:32And by the way, FYI.
00:46:35I haven't told Tom and Beth that there were...
00:46:38three of them.
00:46:40I told them there was just...
00:46:41one bloke and I wanted to stay that way, all right?
00:46:45Understood.
00:46:49And anyway...
00:46:51I might not want to go via the police, might I?
00:46:55I might want to deal with it myself.
00:46:58Yeah, OK, well...
00:46:59the less I know about that, the better.
00:47:18Sorry you weren't at the, uh, recording studio.
00:47:21Went pretty well.
00:47:26I'd have just been in the way.
00:47:28I'd have brought you some flowers, but, uh...
00:47:31I'd have brought you something else.
00:47:33I'm not going to do anything with it myself.
00:47:35Well, I would, but I've had my fingers burnt
00:47:37interfering in other people's stuff, so...
00:47:42That's the name of the, uh...
00:47:45grubby little site where Redenko and his ilk
00:47:47share their latest unhealthy obsessions.
00:47:51He has posted the images he took of you.
00:47:55Obviously, he's tried to do it anonymously,
00:47:56but he's not that bright.
00:47:58I've screenshotted everything,
00:47:59so even if he tries to delete it,
00:48:00you can still prove it.
00:48:02It's all printed out there.
00:48:04That's all you need.
00:48:05You take that to CID, make the allegation,
00:48:07they're obliged to do the rest.
00:48:09What he's done is an offence
00:48:11under the Malicious Communications Act.
00:48:13It also blatantly breaches
00:48:14the police codes of conduct.
00:48:16So there you go.
00:48:19That's him out on his arse,
00:48:21up on a criminal charge,
00:48:22should you choose to pursue it.
00:48:25Better than flowers.
00:48:29It's an apology.
00:48:43How are you feeling?
00:48:44Light shape.
00:48:46Everyone's missing you.
00:48:47Oh.
00:48:48You don't need me anymore.
00:48:49You've got Miranda.
00:48:50Oh, for fuck...
00:48:52Three backing singers.
00:48:53It's perfect.
00:48:54I can't sing.
00:48:55I can't play.
00:48:58Come on, this jelly bollocks,
00:49:00whatever her name is, this week,
00:49:01she's got to promote her
00:49:03come and see the gig.
00:49:04It'll be hilarious.
00:49:06It would be ridiculous.
00:49:06You don't want to miss that.
00:49:08Is this gig not after Kitty's court date?
00:49:12Yep.
00:49:13So what if she goes down?
00:49:15Her court date's on a Friday.
00:49:17We both know they don't give out custodial sentences on a Friday
00:49:20because they've run out of space in prison.
00:49:22Yeah, we both know that they do.
00:49:24Mm.
00:49:27So the plan is...
00:49:30if she gets sent down,
00:49:32which of them are she'll get, what, six months?
00:49:35We just put everything on hold
00:49:36till she comes out.
00:49:38We don't do the gig.
00:49:39Jenny bollocks can always get another band to fill in.
00:49:42We just wait for her.
00:49:43Then if we keep practising,
00:49:45when she does come out,
00:49:47we might be nearly as good as she is.
00:49:49Does Jenny bollocks know this?
00:49:51Fuck no.
00:49:52We decided not to tell her.
00:50:03Why not, though?
00:50:05Because nobody's going to school in the costume today, Manoelot.
00:50:08It's just a fitting.
00:50:09The costumes are for tomorrow.
00:50:12I hate you, Jessie.
00:50:13Hey!
00:50:14Ow!
00:50:15You shut up being rude to Jessie, OK?
00:50:17You love Jessie.
00:50:18Keep still.
00:50:19For God's sake.
00:50:21Granny?
00:50:22Isn't it today that Kitty's going to be up in court?
00:50:26Er, yes.
00:50:27Yes, it is.
00:50:28How do they know that?
00:50:29Kitty's going to be up in court?
00:50:31No point at keeping things from the kids, Jessie.
00:50:33They need to learn about life.
00:50:35Will the king and queen be up in court?
00:50:38Erm, well, it's not that sort of a court, sweetheart.
00:50:42I want to be up in court.
00:50:43No, you don't, Manoelot, mate.
00:50:45They'll send you to prison.
00:50:46The king is going to send Kitty to prison?
00:50:48Why?
00:50:49Erm, well, she had a little accident.
00:50:52She didn't with a sledgehammer.
00:50:53Anyway, it's not, it's not, it won't be the king himself.
00:50:57You're not missing anything.
00:50:57It'll be somebody who, who represents the king.
00:51:00That's not...
00:51:01What kind of accident?
00:51:02Hello, boys and girls.
00:51:03Jerry!
00:51:06What's he doing here?
00:51:07Oh, yeah, Jerry's back.
00:51:09Oh, Jesus, Mother.
00:51:10Oh, we thought you'd seen the line.
00:51:12Don't stop.
00:51:13He's not good enough, boy.
00:51:14Are we really having this conversation again?
00:51:16Yes, yes, we are.
00:51:17Chloe, do you leave Jessie alone?
00:51:19Hang on, you're on my side.
00:51:34I'll text you.
00:51:37I mean, hopefully they'll let me send a text before they take all my stuff off me.
00:51:43And then when I get to wherever they've taken me, I'll phone you as soon as I can so you
00:51:51know where I am.
00:51:53I will get through it, Beth.
00:51:56Worst case scenario, it'll only be for a few months.
00:52:03Have you heard out from Tom?
00:52:05I texted Fern yesterday.
00:52:09He's gone back to work, apparently.
00:52:11So, that's something.
00:52:14Are you sure you don't want someone with you today, Kitty?
00:52:18I'll be fine.
00:52:21I think there's time tomorrow.
00:52:25We're all going to be in Hebden Bridge.
00:52:27And the sun is going to be shining.
00:52:30And we're all going to have a fabulous day.
00:52:34Yeah.
00:52:38Oh, and if I do have to go to Acapulco for a few weeks, you...
00:52:46What?
00:52:48You have to promise me...
00:52:49You...
00:52:52You won't do anything...
00:52:55Silly.
00:52:58I won't.
00:53:27What are you doing here?
00:53:31I...
00:53:31I...
00:53:32I didn't think that you should be on your own.
00:53:36I know that you didn't want an audience, but I just...
00:53:42I don't think that you should be on your own.
00:53:50Is that him?
00:53:52Don't look.
00:53:56Kitty.
00:53:58This is my solicitor.
00:54:01This is, um...
00:54:03I'm Kitty's son, Tom.
00:54:06How do you do?
00:54:07Kitty, this is Mrs. Nebrajani.
00:54:09She's representing you today.
00:54:11Hello, Kitty.
00:54:12Can we have a little conversation before we go in?
00:54:16So, I've had a chat with the prosecution,
00:54:18and I've explained to him
00:54:19that Mr. Peachy is himself up in court in three weeks' time
00:54:22for assaulting you,
00:54:25and that since you damaged his vehicle,
00:54:27he's left his wife,
00:54:29reconciled with you,
00:54:30and has since assaulted you.
00:54:34So, the prosecution has agreed
00:54:37that that means he's no longer a credible witness in this case,
00:54:40not least because he claimed not to know who you were
00:54:43when you damaged his vehicle.
00:54:46So, the circumstances have been outlined to the magistrates,
00:54:49and it looks like the case is going to be dismissed.
00:54:52But, so what?
00:54:54I just wanted to give you the heads up
00:54:55before we go into the courtroom,
00:54:57but it looks like you'll be free to go.
00:55:08Come, cup of tea.
00:55:11Come, cup of tea.
00:55:28That was crazy.
00:55:30Happy turns of events
00:55:31don't generally happen to me.
00:55:35I am sorry, Kitty.
00:55:41I'm sorry for...
00:55:47all the stupid things I've said.
00:55:52Nobody can imagine what it's like
00:55:54to feel how you feel right now.
00:55:57But we can be all right with each other,
00:55:59you and me,
00:56:00if we choose to be.
00:56:03Can't we?
00:56:10Can't we?
00:56:19Do I remind you
00:56:22of him?
00:56:26No, love.
00:56:28No.
00:56:31Sorry, you really do look like me.
00:56:41You know something?
00:56:42I have to say this,
00:56:42cos it's important,
00:56:43but Beth...
00:56:48She's been so fucking kind to me
00:56:50as your mum.
00:56:53I've always thought myself
00:56:54as this degenerate non-entity
00:56:57who could sing a bit.
00:56:59Then Beth comes along
00:57:01and she makes me feel
00:57:02like someone
00:57:03with a proper talent to
00:57:05and something a bit...
00:57:09a bit complicated
00:57:10happened to
00:57:11a long time ago.
00:57:14Which is a long-winded way
00:57:15of saying
00:57:18I think you landed
00:57:19on your feet there, kid.
00:57:23She's kind.
00:57:26Think she thinks
00:57:27she's adopted you
00:57:28as well as me.
00:57:29I wish someone would.
00:57:35Oh, crap.
00:57:36What?
00:57:36I haven't gone there.
00:57:37All right, miss.
00:57:38Hiya, lads.
00:57:43Oh, my God.
00:57:50Hello. Kitty.

00:57:54How was...
00:57:54Yeah, yeah.
00:57:55You'll never guess what.
00:57:56You couldn't make this up.
00:57:57Well, you could,
00:57:58but nobody believe you.
