00:28I'll see you next time
00:32Do you sleep here?
00:34Look, if you're avoiding sleeping because of all the bad dreams, I'd understand it.
00:38No, no, no, I couldn't sleep.
00:41I didn't want to wake you, tossing and turning.
00:43Well, those aren't going to help, are they, babe?
00:46Babe, sit down.
00:47I just want to... I just want to hear something.
00:50So, I've been thinking, yeah, about this video.
00:56Ravi, the teachers are going to deal with that.
00:57Yeah, yeah, I know.
00:58It's just, you know, when they give us the name, I'm going to deal with it.
01:03Okay, just focus on yourself and getting some rest, okay?
01:09Look, I need to go and get ready. Are you going to be okay?
01:13Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:16I've got to go and...
01:18I've got to go and see Vinny, you know, because he's going to be waiting.
01:21Yes, I'll do. You're fine.
01:38Here's the look of a guilty woman.
01:40Telled Ross, yeah?
01:42It's not that easy to just blow his world apart.
01:45Listen, Ian, me and Zach, it was over before it even started.
01:50And I love Ross.
01:52Well, if you actually did, you're telling yourself,
01:55brother, let me hear from your blackmail.
01:57I'll get on with it.
02:01Hi.
02:02Shit.
02:03I mean, you know, the thing is, he is Walford born and bred.
02:06He is Walford, and so he really cares.
02:09All right, that sounds absolutely great.
02:12Yeah, okay.
02:14All right, look forward to seeing you later.
02:16Okay, ciao for now.
02:18Bye.
02:18Bye-bye.
02:22Boss bloke.
02:23He's coming in later.
02:25He's going to be a bit of a pain in the backside,
02:27but he's got loads of money, so...
02:29He might be a bit difficult to deal with.
02:31Oh, thank you so much, Dad.
02:33Do you know what?
02:33I'll just hide under the desk, and then you can deal with him.
02:37It's all right, that'll be sore, just because you lost a bet.
02:39It was a stupid quiz, Dad.
02:41He was just gloating like a small child.
02:43All right, fair enough.
02:43Look, I'll give you a chance to win you 50 quid back.
02:46Next one, to sell a car, wins, yeah?
02:49I'll bet you.
02:50Not 50 quid, 500 quid.
02:52Must have split the jump up.
02:54You scared?
02:55No.
02:55Just don't want to take 500 quid off you lot.
02:57You're so sure that you're going to win, aren't you?
03:00Oh, it's annoying.
03:02Let's give you something real to lose, then.
03:06How about half of this place?
03:07What, for selling one motor?
03:09You must be joking.
03:10Shh.
03:13All right, listen, I'll tell you what I do.
03:16All right, if you sell 80 grand's worth of motors by this time next month, I'll put half of this
03:22place in your name, and if you don't, I'll remain the sole owner.
03:2780 grand's worth?
03:29Yeah.
03:30And then I'll be a proper equal partner.
03:33Yeah.
03:35Deal?
03:39You've got no chance.
03:44I thought Robbie was supposed to be helping you.
03:47He didn't show up.
03:48It's not like he's got anywhere else to be.
03:51Oi, they're in the putter.
03:52Where's your dad this morning?
04:06Oh, hello.
04:10Guessing you ain't slept much?
04:12I just wanted to let you know, Zach, that I'm going to tell Ross.
04:16Today.
04:19I'm going to lose it.
04:22There's no way round it.
04:25Well, I ain't got 20 grand.
04:27And even if I did, and I paid it, I'd be lying to Ross for the rest of his days,
04:33and I don't want to do that.
04:36Listen.
04:37Once he knows, it'll all come out, Sharon will hear about it.
04:45Do you want me to come here?
04:46No.
04:48Yeah, I think that will make it worse.
04:52I just wanted to let you know.
04:54Right.
05:05One of the nurses asked me how we'd met.
05:09And, um, so I told her that one of the first things he said to me after I kissed her
05:13for the first time, do you remember?
05:15He said to me,
05:18I think you're really nice, Julie, but...
05:22But...
05:22I mean, that's exactly what a girl needs to hear, innit?
05:25Come in.
05:28Come in.
05:55Hey.
05:56And I promise, Miss, he will be going straight back to school in the afternoon.
05:59Don't, it's fine.
06:00You're all welcome.
06:01I don't suppose there's any chance of Phil coming.
06:04No, he's not said anything.
06:08Sorry.
06:13How is he?
06:17Yeah, I think he's doing a little bit better.
06:20He was awake earlier, but the pneumonia, it's really exhausted him.
06:27You should be out celebrating getting your all clear.
06:30I mean, this is probably the last place you want to be.
06:32Yeah.
06:33There's no chance I wouldn't be here for him.
06:35Oh, he's very lucky when we're both are.
06:40He's lucky to have you.
06:42Mm.
06:43I don't know who I'd have if it were me.
06:45Oh, it doesn't have to be a partner.
06:48I mean, you've got a family in love with you.
06:49You've got kids.
06:50You've got grandkids.
06:52You hear that, Lou?
06:53Are you going to look after me when I get old?
06:59While you're here, I might just nip outside and get a couple of minutes of rest here, if that's okay.
07:03Yeah, yeah.
07:03I'll get a sauce and teas, yeah?
07:05Oh, can I have that coffee?
07:06Okay.
07:10It's all right.
07:13And I'll tell you what, mate.
07:15You've got a good one there.
07:19I've forgotten what it's like to have a supportive partner who's been that long.
07:23Actually, I went out on a date.
07:26Yeah, um, don't know if you know her.
07:29Her name's Bea.
07:31Um, I like her.
07:34She likes me.
07:36I think.
07:40Oh, I swear at this room.
07:42Are you in a good mood?
07:44Well, I've just had a big job coming.
07:45And more importantly, I've got the woman of my dream standing in front of me.
07:48Yeah, Ross, I wanted to talk to you.
07:49Um, had some wedding stuff.
07:52Have you got time now?
07:53Well, I can't.
07:53I've got the client waiting.
07:54Have you got a honeymoon to pay for?
07:56Yeah.
07:57Come here.
07:58It's going to be all right.
07:59We'll have it paid off like that.
08:01I'll come back at lunchtime if that helps.
08:03Yeah.
08:04Yeah, that'd be great.
08:05All right.
08:05I'll see you later, love.
08:27Dad, it was him.
08:28He recorded that video.
08:30What the hell was wrong with you?
08:31Did he?
08:32You took that video of me, didn't you?
08:33I didn't.
08:34What video?
08:35Of me having a seizure.
08:37I've got a sister with a disability as if I'd do that.
08:40I don't have a disability.
08:44He took it.
08:45He's put it online.
08:46Are you not going to do something now?
08:50What would you like me to do?
08:53Listen, I'm sure there's an explanation.
08:55So why don't we talk this through like adults, yeah?
09:00Yeah, let's go.
09:06I'm going to meet up with him for lunch later.
09:08I couldn't tell him now.
09:09He was rushing off.
09:11He is literally out there hustling for work to pay for our honeymoon and...
09:16Oh, I've made such a mess.
09:21You ain't done anything wrong.
09:22I'm the one in the relationship.
09:26I'm sorry.
09:27I shouldn't have strung you along.
09:29I've hurt you.
09:32Now I'm going to hurt Ross.
09:36He ain't going to let you go.
09:41Is he ever going to trust me again?
09:44Maybe I am just like my dad.
09:47Did what he wanted.
09:48Didn't matter who got hurt.
09:49You ain't anything like that.
09:51Otherwise you wouldn't be sitting here feeling guilty about it, Vic.
09:53Come on.
09:54You're going to be all right.
09:57Ross loves you.
10:00I made the right choice.
10:06Still no idea who sent the message?
10:08No.
10:09Okay, reply to the message.
10:10Say you're going to confess everything to Ross.
10:12They ain't going to get a penny.
10:13If they text back, you might get an idea of who it is.
10:16You can tell Ross anyway.
10:19You've got nothing to lose.
10:30All right.
10:31I did take a video.
10:33Oh, well.
10:34Yeah, I knew you were lying.
10:35It's not what you think, though.
10:36I thought you were pulling some sort of prank.
10:38I didn't think.
10:39I'm sorry, mate.
10:41Sorry?
10:41What have you put online?
10:44Please tell me you didn't do that.
10:45I didn't post it.
10:47But a mate, he asked to see the video.
10:50I told him no, but he kept on and on at me.
10:55Then he told me he wouldn't show it to no one else.
10:57So I sent him it.
10:58But you knew I was having a seizure.
10:59I didn't realise what was happening until after I started recording.
11:02But when you knew, you still sent it to someone.
11:03No one could be put online.
11:08I'm going to need your mate tonight.
11:10No way.
11:14He hung Barney off that bridge and he hadn't even done nothing wrong.
11:17There's no way I'm giving his name up.
11:18Well, they just want it deleted.
11:21Isn't that right, Ravi?
11:25Dad?
11:28I think you've got this, son.
11:31Yeah?
11:35Sell me his name!
12:04I bet he misses his chickens.
12:07Hmm, how did you ever persuade Phil to get those, eh?
12:10Well, there's someone who's going soft in his old age.
12:13I'll be back soon.
12:17Oh, sorry for running one out, eh?
12:22I thought you might fancy a bit of something homemade.
12:26Oh, you're an angel.
12:27Come on, off you go.
12:28Go and get heated up.
12:31OK.
12:36What's that look for?
12:38Wouldn't you tell me about Zach and Vicky?
12:40Well, it wasn't my business to tell, was it?
12:42And anyway, as far as I know, it was just one kiss.
12:46Uh, your mother gave you that phone for emergencies only,
12:50so unless there's something wrong, you shouldn't be using it.
12:52It's just, it's nothing.
12:54Who's messaging you?
12:56Nobody.
12:57Maybe he's got himself a secret girlfriend.
13:00Yeah, yeah, yeah, she's really nice.
13:02Yeah?
13:03You're riding something.
13:04Give us your phone.
13:05Don't lie to me.
13:23I thought only old men were supposed to take afternoon nuts.
13:26Must be really tiring carrying their muscles around, eh?
13:31Right, you.
13:33Right, come on, wake up.
13:35Come on, handsome, wake up.
13:37Let go.
13:39Let go of me.
13:40Let go of me.
13:42Get out of me now!
13:45Hey, what's going on?
13:48Robbie, Robbie!
13:50He was asleep.
13:51I just tried to wake him up.
13:52Do you see him grabbing her?
13:53You need to have a word with him.
13:56Yeah.
13:57Okay.
13:58I've got the job done really quick and all.
14:00Honey was a lovely fellow.
14:01Must be my lucky day.
14:03Yeah, I can't get Dex's mid-light runners out my head.
14:05And everyone loves a bit of that,
14:06so that's going on the wedding playlist.
14:09You know what?
14:12I can't wait to bury you.
14:14We are going to have the best day.
14:17Wash me hands.
14:18You can order some food.
14:19You're going to get plenty, all right?
14:25I can't believe you've done this.
14:26What were you even thinking?
14:28That one's in trouble.
14:29Oh, that's putting it lightly.
14:30Do you know how Vicky's in?
14:30He's got something he wants to say to her
14:32because he's been really, really stupid.
14:37Wait.
14:39You blackmail Vicky?
14:42Do you say anything to Ross?
14:44No, I promise.
14:46Stay there.
14:50Right, so for the wedding, top of the list, I've got flowers.
14:56Ross?
14:56Yeah.
15:01I've completely forgot I've got to sort something out for the wedding.
15:04It's all right, if it's a delivery, I've got it.
15:05No, no, no, no, it's, um, it's a surprise.
15:08Here, I, um, I'll go and sort it out.
15:12You order.
15:13All right.
15:16Yeah.
15:17All right, um.
15:18He looked terrified.
15:20He's not himself.
15:21But he didn't actually hit her.
15:23No, thank God.
15:24But he looks like he hasn't slept for weeks.
15:27He's acting all weird.
15:29There's something going on with him.
15:31He's just not been sleeping, OK?
15:32He's exhausted.
15:33He's got a lot going on.
15:34Yeah, and who in this family hasn't?
15:35But you don't see the rest of us holding up pharmacies
15:38or lashing out at Kat.
15:40So what's really going on, Priya?
15:49He's...
15:51He's really unwell, Sookie.
15:55And it's been going on for a while.
15:58He's really struggling.
16:03Mentally.
16:04Ever since all that stuff with Kojo and Okie
16:07and him getting arrested, he's...
16:10He's done stuff.
16:13What stuff?
16:16Just...
16:17Just stuff I know he wouldn't do
16:19if he was in his right mind.
16:22Getting the kids.
16:23I mean, they know something's wrong.
16:25But every time they try and talk to him about it,
16:27he just pushes them away.
16:28And I'm here trying to pretend like everything's normal
16:31to protect them.
16:32And him.
16:34But he...
16:36He's spiralling and...
16:38I've been trying to help.
16:40Why didn't you tell me?
16:41Did you really think he'd want anyone to know?
16:44I thought I could handle it.
16:47You know, I've got him on this waiting list
16:49for a mental health assessment,
16:50but it's going to take a few weeks.
16:53I'm worried.
16:56What if it's too late for him to get better?
16:59What if he...
17:00He hurts himself?
17:02OK, OK, look.
17:03He's going to be all right.
17:05And we don't need to tell the rest of the family.
17:09We'll sort it.
17:12Is someone going to tell me what's going on?
17:14Well, go on then.
17:17It was me.
17:18Er, we can't hear you.
17:19I sent the message.
17:21You!
17:23I don't know what you was thinking.
17:25Yeah, well, she shouldn't have been cheating.
17:26Excuse me, that is none of your business.
17:28How did you even know?
17:30I saw you know when I was with Granny Cindy the other night.
17:33How do you even know what blackmail is?
17:35Granny Cindy told me.
17:36Oh.
17:37Don't tell me it was her who made you do this.
17:39No, no, no, she doesn't know.
17:41She was just talking about it once.
17:43Said that sometimes blackmail is a necessary evil.
17:46Oh, she's the last person you should listen to.
17:48So, any idea how much trouble you've caused, mate?
17:51Louie, you know I'm going to have to tell your parents about this.
17:54No, please.
17:54I did it for them.
17:56They, like, really need money.
17:58I keep hearing them talking about it.
18:00I can't even afford Jimmy's nursery fees.
18:03Oh, Louie, darling, that is not your problem to worry about.
18:07Yeah, and this isn't the right way to go about it.
18:10I'm so sorry.
18:11Please, please, just don't tell my mum.
18:14Listen.
18:15I am not going to tell them,
18:16but you need to delete that photo
18:18and you need to keep quiet about what you saw
18:21because it's none of yours
18:22or anyone else's business.
18:26OK?
18:27Yeah?
18:29So, er, is that it?
18:31Are we OK now?
18:33And you're wrong about it being anyone else's business.
18:38You know you should tell him.
18:45Oh, here he is, look, bang on time, nice and keen.
18:48There's a woman behind him,
18:49probably wants a cheap run around,
18:51a bit more up your street.
18:52Tobias?
18:53Yeah, we spoke earlier.
18:54Max Bradley.
18:55Poe!
18:56Ha, ha, ha, ha.
18:57Yeah, you want something a bit more special,
19:00let's go around the back.
19:02Yeah.
19:12Sookie, it was a misunderstanding, OK?
19:14It was a misunderstanding.
19:15Look, babe, I don't know what you've been saying.
19:16You need help.
19:17I'm fine, I'm fine.
19:18Ravi, first the pharmacy and then today we can.
19:20Yeah, I said I'm fine.
19:21I'm just...
19:24I'm just over tired, OK?
19:26I'm just over tired, but I'm sorting myself out, OK?
19:30You didn't mean to bother, Sookie.
19:31Ravi, Priya's been struggling with this on her own.
19:36You don't need to wait for your assessment, OK?
19:38I've got the recommendation of a good private therapist.
19:42You just call him and book yourself an appointment.
19:44I'll pay.
19:45I don't need...
19:46I don't need your charity, OK?
19:47This isn't about charity, OK?
19:52I should have seen what was happening.
19:53I'm sorry, I've just been caught up.
19:55No, this ain't your fault.
19:56I should have said something sooner.
19:57Stop, please, just stop.
19:59You're talking about me like I'm not here.
20:00Look, I'm scared.
20:01Ravi, I'm scared what might happen if this gets worse.
20:05You know, what if you had HitCat today, eh?
20:08With your record, you could end up back inside.
20:10How can I face the kids?
20:12OK, when they ask me what I did to help you.
20:17Just book yourself an appointment, Ravi.
20:20And it'll get sorted.
20:23I'll get it.
20:26OK, I'll get it.
20:29Well, he's on his way back to school with his towel well and truly between his legs.
20:35Listen, I am so, so sorry.
20:38It's all right.
20:39Look, what Louis did was wrong, OK?
20:42But I think you're still a cheat and a liar.
20:44You don't talk to him like that, Ian.
20:46Well, of course you're going to defend her, aren't you?
20:48Am I the only one who's thinking about Rossi?
20:50Sorry, do you think I'm happy about what I did?
20:52It just happened.
20:54And it was a mistake.
20:55Yeah, and I wish I didn't know about it, because I feel like I'm lying to his face.
21:00You're going to tell him, aren't you?
21:03Marrying someone you can't trust, all right?
21:05Take it from me.
21:06It doesn't end well.
21:07Do you think I want to feel like this again?
21:09Believe me, I have learnt my lesson.
21:12Ian, please don't tell him.
21:16All right, if you two give me your word that it is over,
21:20then he won't hear anything from me.
21:23I promise you.
21:26It is over.
21:28Well, I hope so.
21:30Because you, I mean, you can't help but make a beeline for other people's women, can you?
21:34I mean, first you did it with Peter, and now you've done it with Rossi.
21:36She said it's over. I don't need a lecture.
21:37All right, fine. Good.
21:39Because I tell you what, I don't know how I'm going to look him in the face and be his
21:42best man.
21:44I'm going to have to back out.
21:45No, you can't.
21:46What are you going to say?
21:47Well, I don't know. I'll tell him I'm busy with the election or something.
21:53Look, if I ain't even get a hint,
21:55a hint that you two are sniffing around each other again,
22:00I will tell him.
22:05Oh, I love that it was your mum that got you into cars.
22:08She used to pick me up from school in an orange Capri.
22:11What a woman.
22:12This money she left me was specifically for a car.
22:14Well, then it's really important that you make the right choice.
22:17Look, just because you've taken it for a test drive, I will not push her.
22:20There's not many salespeople like you.
22:23I love the car, and I know what they're going for,
22:26so chuck me in a service and a valet and we've got a deal.
22:29Yeah?
22:30Oh, you have made my day.
22:33Right, OK, just fill that in for me.
22:35Yeah?
22:42Where's Tobias gone?
22:44Time waster.
22:45Well, this is Flora.
22:46She's just bought the best car that we've got.
22:48Hey, dear.
22:49Nice to meet you.
22:50Thank you so much, and we'll get the car ready for you in two days, yeah?
22:54I'll give you a call.
22:54It was lovely to meet you.
22:57See you then.
22:58Bye.
22:58Bye.
23:02The best car we've got.
23:04I am well on my way to getting that 80 grand.
23:09Yeah.
23:12Are you joking?
23:14What, you're that busy, you ain't got time to be my best mate?
23:16I'm sorry, but all this running for councillor business,
23:19it's taken up a lot of my time,
23:20and I don't want to let you down.
23:22I mean, you deserve better than that, so I'm sorry.
23:25No, I get it.
23:26Look, you're putting Wolf in first.
23:29Look, thanks for being so understanding.
23:31Right, I've got to go.
23:32I'll meet you in a minute.
23:34Enjoy.
23:37Oh, Trace, can I get a pint, please?
23:41Zach.
23:43Come on, have a seat.
23:47Come on, mate.
23:49Every time I see these plaques, I wonder about the people.
23:53Always like to make up stories about them.
23:56Come on in.
23:57Who was he?
24:00Arthur Fowler was lander gentry from Sussex.
24:06Or Suffolk.
24:07Yeah, let's go for Suffolk.
24:09But he wasn't into hereditary wealth,
24:11and he wanted to make his own way in the world,
24:13so he abandoned his posh family, who were awful anyway,
24:17and he found refuge here with the good common people,
24:21and he lived happily ever after.
24:23Because, look, it says Arthur Fowler, he loved this place.
24:27Yeah, it's quite a story.
24:30Of course, did you know him?
24:32Yeah.
24:33My uncle.
24:35He was married to my auntie Pauline,
24:37and, um, yeah, he was very much from around this place.
24:42Yeah, he definitely wasn't lander gentry.
24:45Do you know what?
24:46I think it's going to be 30 years this month since he passed.
24:50Yeah.
24:51Him and my auntie Pauline, they were this square.
24:57They were made for each other.
24:59Yep.
25:01Uncle Arthur, he loved this place.
25:05So touching.
25:06It's hard to find relationships like that nowadays.
25:12You know, I...
25:13I think you're a really nice person, Ian.
25:20Right.
25:21And I'd love to get to know you more over some more dates.
25:36Hi, Owen.
25:38Looks like Bea's bagged herself a bill.
25:42Bit of luck she'll be out of our ear soon, babe.
25:44Yeah, um, about that, Billy, I forgot to mention,
25:48I saw her said that we would loan her some money for a deposit of that.
25:53What do you mean, loan her some money?
25:54When can I get that?
25:56Well...
25:57It's a bit of a secret.
26:00Listen, we've done food, we've done flowers, right,
26:03but we've barely started the playlist, which is the most important bit.
26:05So how about, I'll go get us a Chinese, and then we'll go back and crack on.
26:09Sounds good.
26:10I'll get us a bottle of wine, and I'll meet you back at home, yeah?
26:11Love it.
26:18I can't believe it was Louie.
26:20He's dead.
26:23Thank God it's over, eh?
26:25I'm glad you're happy.
26:27I am.
26:30I'm sorry if, um, if I've hurt you.
26:35Look, I know things between us are...
26:38It's confusing, isn't it?
26:39And, um, I know I've said things.
26:41Yeah, like me still being in your head.
26:44I love Ross.
26:48Now, Zach, I'm saying I am in love with Ross.
26:51Aye.
26:51And if that's true, marry him.
26:54Yeah.
26:56Be Ross's wife.
26:59Did he tell you?
27:01What?
27:03I'm best man.
27:06He asked you?
27:07He put me on the spot.
27:10Like I said,
27:12he's a good bloke.
27:14Really hope you're going to be happy together.
27:35Robby.
27:37Robby, wait up.
27:38Just wake up.
27:39You're having a bad dream.
27:42Again, and again, and again, and again.
27:43Really?
27:53No, no, no, no, no.
27:54Brie, I'm sorry.
27:56Sorry.
27:58Sorry.
