00:00I love you
01:12Yeah, in a minute.
01:13Look, can you take my bowl, please?
01:15Thanks.
01:19Are you coming or what?
01:21Okay, sir.
01:22Yeah, what wouldn't I be?
01:24Can we go, please?
01:25Yeah, yes, yes.
01:29What is it?
01:30It's nothing.
01:31Look, we're going to be late.
01:32Is it that video again?
01:33Has someone shared it?
01:34Who?
01:34Look, it doesn't matter, bro.
01:37Let me see.
01:38Mum, what are you going to do, Dad?
01:39Look, trust me, it will pass.
01:40We need to get to school.
01:41Come on.
01:43Come.
01:45Bye, Mum.
01:47Bye.
01:48Bye.
02:42Congratulations, mate.
02:44Beautiful motor.
02:45Right, get yourself in there.
02:46Get settled and I'll talk you through it all, will you?
02:48Cheers.
02:49All right.
02:52You have one sold?
02:54Is that more or less than you've sold recently?
02:57Er, I think it's more.
02:59Whatever.
03:00It's just one car.
03:01Yeah, the most expensive one, Lauren.
03:04You want to win this bet, you better watch and learn.
03:07Watch and learn.
03:14Lauren!
03:15Lauren!
03:16Okay.
03:17I need you to do something about Cindy, okay?
03:18She literally threw my breakfast in the bin.
03:20Right, what breakfast?
03:22The pizza in the fridge.
03:27It's been there for three days, Oscar.
03:29Breakfast is breakfast.
03:30Can you just sort it out?
03:31Yeah?
03:31I've got a bet to win.
03:37Lauren!
03:41Priya.
03:43Priya.
03:45Priya!
03:47Help, please.
03:49Priya.
03:52I didn't mean for it to go so deep.
03:55What do I do?
03:56What do I do?
03:57What do I do?
03:58Just, um, it's all right, okay?
04:01It's going to be all right.
04:01Okay.
04:02We're going to get you to the hospital.
04:04Okay, I'm going to take you to the hospital.
04:05Okay, I'm sorry.
04:06Yeah?
04:06I'm sorry.
04:07It's okay.
04:08I'm sorry.
04:08I'm sorry.
04:09I thought we were practising the flash mob tomorrow.
04:12Well, you can't expect him to pass up an opportunity like that.
04:16I mean, he's practically running for the mayor of London.
04:18Yeah.
04:19House of Warford.
04:20Well, you know, from Little E.
04:22Corns.
04:22Yeah.
04:23All the most influential people in the borough will be attending that Andre's in Carla.
04:28Yeah.
04:28Well, I can't understand why, um, you didn't get a plus one.
04:33Because I could have been your first.
04:34Oh, yeah.
04:35Well, obviously, numbers were tight.
04:37I mean, my invite only came through this morning.
04:39Oh, really?
04:39Mine came through last week, and they offered me a plus one.
04:42But I told them, no, no, no.
04:43Give it to a more charitable case.
04:46You're welcome, by the way.
04:47Well, I...
04:49How did she get plus one, hmm?
04:51I can't believe that for one minute.
04:52I can see why you, you know, turned down the best man job.
04:56You know, you're busy, busy.
04:57Yeah, yeah, look, I'm sorry, but, yeah, I am too busy.
05:00But, but, I have spoken to the community centre, and I've rearranged it for lunchtime today.
05:05All right, I've spoken to everyone.
05:06They can make it.
05:07Well, that's great.
05:08Thanks.
05:09Cheers.
05:10Espresso, mate.
05:11Right, I'll, uh, see you at lunchtime.
05:13What?
05:15About the community centre.
05:18The dance for Vicky.
05:19The flash mob thing.
05:20Sorry, you lost me.
05:23I thought you said everyone was going.
05:25Yeah, I must have left him off the group chat.
05:27Well, then, add him to the group chat.
05:28He's the best man now.
05:30Oh, you are.
05:31Look, flash mob ain't really my thing, Ross.
05:34No, and, um, trying to add one more in to my choreography, I mean, it'll really mess it up.
05:39Are you for real?
05:40Listen, I'm good to miss it.
05:41I've got two left for you.
05:42I'll see you in a bit.
05:49Yeah, no, I, I know her attendance is low.
05:52I'm, I'm really sorry.
05:54No, she'll, she'll be in tomorrow.
05:56Okay.
05:57Cheers.
05:57Cheers.
06:00They're not happy, Lex.
06:02Look, we've got to stick to this deal now, yeah?
06:05You can stay off and see Nigel today, but tomorrow you're going in, no excuses.
06:10And while he was filming the famous dance routine to Singing in the Rain, Gene Kelly had a terrible fever.
06:16Oh, hiya.
06:17You two know school today?
06:18School tomorrow.
06:19That's the deal.
06:20Right.
06:21And there's no backing out of this one, is there?
06:22I made a pinky promise.
06:24Ah, well, we all know how important pinky promises are.
06:27But she really wants to see Nigel today.
06:29Right.
06:29Er, so, come and make yourself comfy then.
06:38Hi, Nigel.
06:43You don't have to stay here, babe.
06:46No, I've called in sick, it's fine.
06:49It's just, um, you know, you know when they ask, um, you don't have to tell them.
06:58Look, we do, though.
07:00I'm sorry, but we do.
07:03You're not well.
07:06I, um, it ain't your fault, okay?
07:09It's just, it's, it's the illness.
07:12Right?
07:12But you, you want to get better.
07:15Yeah.
07:15And you want it to stop, right?
07:17Yeah.
07:19So I'm sorry, but we have to be honest.
07:25Sorry for the weight.
07:26Ravi.
07:29Nina.
07:31He knows.
07:35That Nina.
07:39The more I think about it, the more I realise I'm not going to win this bet just selling cars.
07:45But that's your job, though, isn't it?
07:46Yes.
07:47I've got to think bigger, you know?
07:50Oh, look at that, Lauren.
07:53That is a beauty.
07:55That is a 1979 Ford Capri, that is.
07:59I used to have one in there, must have to tear around the square.
08:00I used to be able to get all the Slaters in it, okay?
08:02And Mo used to moan all the way, even when I took her off the roof rack.
08:07See, that is what I'm talking about.
08:09You buy them for cheap, and then you do them up a little bit, and then you sell them to
08:12mugs like him.
08:13No, he's doing me mugs like me.
08:15I'm just saying, how much would you pay to just relive them glory days?
08:19Oh, look, don't get me started, love.
08:21Seriously, if I had the cash, I would bite your hand off.
08:25Imagine doing the school runs in a car like that.
08:27Yeah.
08:28Can you imagine trying to get the kids in there?
08:29But, listen, if you're into buying used cars, I can put you on to a mate of mine.
08:32Insurance is high, though.
08:34Classic cars always get nicked.
08:35Sorry, this is a private conversation?
08:37Yeah, private conversation.
08:38All right, thank you.
08:39Trying to join in.
08:40But, listen, if you want his details, I can give them to you.
08:43Yeah?
08:43Yeah.
08:44Yeah, please, thank you.
08:45Okay.
08:47Oh, come on, there's got to be another doctor at this hospital.
08:50No, I've been pulled in from the agency to help out.
08:53You could be waiting for hours.
08:55Yeah, but, come on, what are you?
08:56You're, like, his ex-girlfriend, but also married to Ranvish.
08:58What's that make you?
08:59Like, his ex-step-mum.
09:01I mean, doesn't this all feel a bit wrong?
09:03Okay, let's talk about wrong.
09:05Because I'm looking at a potential stab wound here.
09:08And given what I know about him,
09:10I should probably report this to the police.
09:13I don't know.
09:14Okay.
09:14It's not a stabbing, okay?
09:17It's not.
09:19Then help me understand.
09:23I'm on your side.
09:28He...
09:30He did it to himself.
09:34Okay, but he's getting help for it.
09:36Okay?
09:37He's been through a lot, right?
09:39And his head's all over the place, okay?
09:41But I've made sure to book him in for a therapist appointment tomorrow.
09:45Okay?
09:45You're never meant to cause this much damage, right?
09:48And he ain't going to do it again, okay?
09:49Because he knows it's not the answer, don't you?
09:52Okay.
09:53Okay.
09:55But I still need to carry out a proper risk assessment,
09:57and that's better for everyone if I do that one-on-one.
10:01Why don't you give us a minute?
10:03He's in safe hands.
10:07Okay.
10:08Yeah.
10:09Well, I'll be just like outside, yeah?
10:11Okay.
10:26All right, we're all ready?
10:27Yeah, well, good to go.
10:28Come on, mate.
10:28Cool, ready?
10:29Here we go.
10:30And a one, and a two, and a spin, and a shimmy, and...
10:35Harvey, what are you doing?
10:36He keeps bumping into me.
10:37You keep turning the wrong way.
10:39Maybe you're turning the wrong way.
10:41Now, mate, I know what I'm doing.
10:42I used to be a professional...
10:43Professional dancer?
10:44A professional entertainer.
10:45In a bear costume?
10:47Hey, listen, I know dancing's a very important part of children's entertainment.
10:51Well, yeah, it's a bit more complex than the okey-cokey, mate.
10:54Come on.
10:55Listen, boys, come on.
10:56It's supposed to be a bit of fun, mate.
10:57Fuck.
10:58Really?
10:58Jump all that to my knees.
10:59Yeah, me too.
11:00No, I'm from buying up.
11:01This is why we need Zach here, all right?
11:03Because we can put him up the front, put the spotlight on him,
11:05and then we can just all stand in the background, just give it a bit of...
11:07Yeah, yeah, good shot.
11:08Get him on a blower.
11:08Come on, let's do this.
11:09No, no, no, hold on.
11:10We don't need him stealing our limelight.
11:11Ian, we've got no limelight to steal, apart from winning the poo here.
11:16He said he wasn't interested.
11:17Yeah, but that's because you made a weird eye on him earlier,
11:19and you're doing it again now.
11:22So, where's this all come from all of a sudden?
11:24What's your problem with Zach?
11:29No major damage.
11:30You should consider yourself very lucky.
11:34I'll sign off your discharge.
11:35The fact that you've got an appointment with a therapist reassures me,
11:39and you've obviously got a supportive girlfriend.
11:43Don't do that.
11:45Priya's everything to me, and she's the mother of my kids, okay?
11:48Yeah, I know who she is.
11:52Ranveer had to bring up Davinda because she was too much of a liability.
11:56And here she is years later, rescuing you from yourself.
11:59You don't know what you're talking about.
12:01Yeah, you're right, because I don't recognise the man sitting in front of me.
12:05Even when you killed Ranveer, the man who brought you up,
12:09he wobbled, sure.
12:12But it didn't break you.
12:16Was it Nish?
12:19I saw the news reports.
12:22Was that it?
12:26No, no, no, no, no.
12:28It's just, um...
12:29It's everything there.
12:31Everything I've ever done, everyone I've ever had,
12:34it's all there, right there, right there, all the time.
12:39Can't take it off.
12:42Then you need to get proper help.
12:44Because sitting back and doing nothing isn't an option anymore.
12:49Seriously, Ravi, if it's that bad, go to your therapy session.
12:53Take it seriously.
12:55You can't afford to fall apart.
12:57You've got kids who need you to protect them.
13:03It's called karma.
13:10Are you done?
13:12He's all yours.
13:16He's all yours.
13:21I'm looking for a partnership.
13:23Someone that can give me a good rate on regular work.
13:26You want me to work with your old man?
13:28No.
13:29No, you'd be working with me and only me.
13:33Um...
13:34You know, restoring classics, that...
13:36That ain't easy.
13:37We just need to get them roadworthy.
13:40Knock out a few dents, polish them up a bit,
13:42and then I'll sell them on.
13:43You know, where would you be getting these cars from, then?
13:46Well, I've got a contact.
13:48A mate of Alfie Moons.
13:51I'll be the one that's taking the financial risk.
13:54I just want someone that I can trust,
13:57that I know is going to do the work fast.
14:01I'd want to cut out the profits and all.
14:03Okay.
14:05Yeah, what, 5%?
14:0715.
14:0815, take it or leave it.
14:10All right, fine.
14:11Yeah, deal.
14:16Hello?
14:17Oh, is that Ray?
14:22I can take that on if you like.
14:24You?
14:25You're a mechanic, aren't you?
14:27Yeah, I know.
14:28But I did used to fix up old bangers back in the States.
14:31And you know I can use the cash right now.
14:34To tell the truth,
14:34I think the old thing's probably more hassle than it's worth.
14:37Then let me deal with the stress.
14:39You won't have to lift a finger.
14:41All right.
14:43All right, fine.
14:48So, yeah,
14:49you can't really swallow now?
14:51No.
14:52Well, not really.
14:53It's got quite bad over the last 24 hours.
14:56So, that must be so hard.
14:57Yeah.
14:58And the pneumonia's making it worse.
15:01Then how does he take his medicine?
15:04Yeah, I mean, that's the tricky bit, really.
15:07They're worried that he's not getting his full dose of antibiotics,
15:10so they're talking about taking him back to hospital.
15:12Really?
15:13Mm.
15:14They might need to give it intravenously.
15:16You know, I mean, that's a bag, you know.
15:19It's like a drip.
15:20It's one of those things.
15:21Yeah.
15:22I think it's probably the best thing for him right now.
15:25Sausages.
15:27Sausages.
15:28What did he say?
15:30I think he said sausages.
15:33He's running a fever,
15:34and he can barely hold down a glass of water,
15:36and he's still thinking about his stomach.
15:38Got me hungry now, Nigel.
15:40Although,
15:41he might be thinking about hot dogs,
15:43you know, at the cinema.
15:45Why don't you pop down the corridor
15:47and pick out a nice film for him to watch later, eh?
15:50Okay.
15:58Do you think I folded too easily,
16:00letting her skip school?
16:01No, I think you're doing just fine.
16:02She got into a bit of a bad habit before Easter.
16:04I just started missing a few days.
16:06I thought the holidays might have helped, but...
16:09I think, you know,
16:09when a child starts missing school,
16:11then making a bargain like what you're doing,
16:13you think that could be a really good way forward.
16:14Just feels like she's calling all the shots.
16:16Ah, well, the problem is,
16:18she's strong-willed.
16:19She's got too much of a grandad in her.
16:21Yeah, tell me about it.
16:25I, er...
16:26I take it he hasn't shown up here yet?
16:28No.
16:30And, to be perfectly honest with you,
16:33and beyond caring.
16:35Julie, I'm sorry, I...
16:36No, I am. Really.
16:38You know, Nigel, he's not on his own,
16:40and everyone else is doing their bit,
16:43and...
16:46Phil's the one who's missing out, so...
16:54Well, I might have noticed that, won't you?
16:55Have to.
16:57Are you all right?
16:58No, not really.
17:01Look, I'm trying to do wedding stuff,
17:03you know, groom some things,
17:04now that Zach's best man,
17:06but it turns out Ian's got a massive problem with him.
17:08Hey!
17:09Zach, why?
17:10Well, why do you think?
17:11Excuse me.
17:12I'm Regga.
17:14Ian's just told me why he gave you the cold shoulder this morning.
17:18It's that kiss.
17:21With Lauren.
17:23Look, I told him, you know,
17:24it was ages ago,
17:25and he needs to, you know,
17:27stop overreacting.
17:28Look, I just can't believe he's been like it.
17:30Yeah, well, is he, Ian?
17:31You really know what he's like.
17:32I just want everyone to have a nice time at the wedding.
17:35I know.
17:35So, please,
17:37if you get a chance,
17:38I have a word.
17:45My mum said it weren't nothing to worry about.
17:47He's a hospital, though.
17:49Listen,
17:50if you boys are going to sit here again all afternoon,
17:53you're going to have to get for more than one portion of trips,
17:55because the boss is watching me.
17:56Yeah.
17:57So, okay?
17:58Cool.
17:59I don't know.
18:01I don't think anyone's being honest about anything I've learned.
18:04Yeah, I know.
18:05Hey, Nugget, you thirsty?
18:07Leave it at me.
18:09You want a shake on those fries?
18:10A big shake?
18:12Jacob.
18:13So you can wear yourself again?
18:15I guess.
18:16You say that again, big man.
18:17Oh, yeah.
18:18What are you going to do about it, bro?
18:19You did that video on me, didn't you?
18:20Oi, oi, nice fighting in here.
18:23But you're a joke, man.
18:24Once you're smacking your forehead,
18:25you're going to start tripping out again.
18:26Stop here.
18:27Nah.
18:30I was a kid with me.
18:31Talk bad on my brother again,
18:33and you're dead.
18:34Do you understand?
18:37Well, that picture that you sent,
18:38it's not very clear.
18:40No, I am interested.
18:41Yeah.
18:42As soon as possible.
18:44Well, how much work does it need?
18:48Yeah, I'm coming, baby.
18:50I'm coming.
18:51A little bit of TLC.
18:53Well, what does that mean?
18:54And how quickly can it be delivered as well?
18:57Sorry, do you have any photos that you can send over?
19:00Yeah, send them, please.
19:02Cindy!
19:03Can you just see to Jimmy, please?
19:05And also tidy up this mess and all.
19:08Cindy, are you there?
19:11Hello?
19:13Yeah, yeah, I've got it.
19:15No, I'm not time-wasting.
19:16I'm not.
19:17No, I want it.
19:17I definitely want it.
19:19Yeah, I'll take it.
19:19I just need it delivered today.
19:23OK, yeah.
19:24Well, you've got to deal.
19:34Dave, I don't want to talk to them.
19:36Don't be silly.
19:38What are you?
19:39Hi.
19:39You had the adoption meeting thing.
19:41How did it go?
19:42Yeah, it was good.
19:44Yeah, I mean, apparently you can't send Norton's children to bed
19:46without the dinner anymore, but...
19:48I'm just joking.
19:49Should we go?
19:49No, because it's going to be a dark suit.
19:52Yeah, not for hours.
19:53Yeah, but I just want to get home.
19:54What happens when it gets out?
19:55Do you turn into a pumpkin?
19:58Sorry.
19:59Bear with us all red today.
20:00Right.
20:01You guys OK?
20:02Yeah, yeah.
20:03What, is it, Nugget?
20:06What's wrong?
20:06Look, it's nothing, Dad.
20:08Vani, what's happened?
20:09Look, just Nugget got upset,
20:11and now he's turned his location off,
20:12and he's not answering his phone, and...
20:13But why did you let him walk off on his own?
20:15He'll be over.
20:16No, I have to find him.
20:22You eating that or what?
20:24I think I feel well.
20:25Right, so you're OK to watch a film and talk to Nigel all day,
20:28but the minute you start thinking about school,
20:29you're feeling sick again.
20:30What is she not feeling well?
20:32Grandad!
20:33Miraculous recovery.
20:34All right.
20:35What's that?
20:37She's trying to pull a fast one,
20:38because she doesn't want to go to school.
20:39She's feeling sick.
20:40She's feeling sick, isn't she?
20:40I am.
20:42Why, I'm not buying it?
20:43Listen, go easy on her, eh?
20:44Go easy.
20:45I'll tell you what's easy.
20:46It's going down the care room to see Nigel.
20:48Julie's dealing with it all on her own down there, you know?
20:50Listen, Julie's got people going down there all the time.
20:52She don't want people.
20:53She wants you, Phil.
20:54So does Nigel.
20:55Nigel?
20:56He's...
20:57Nigel don't know what's going on.
20:59Stop arguing!
21:00It's all right.
21:01I don't need this, all right?
21:06Now, I do feel sick.
21:09When you get this message, I need you to call me.
21:12Straight away.
21:13I want you home.
21:14Do you understand?
21:15I'm not messing about, Nugget.
21:17OK?
21:21Oi!
21:23What have you done with him?
21:24Who?
21:25Where is he?
21:25Who?
21:26My son!
21:26I've not seen Nugget, Robbie.
21:28Why were you laughing?
21:30Were you laughing at me?
21:32I hope we didn't even see you.
21:35Are you working for them?
21:36Did they tell you to do this?
21:38This is...
21:39This is karma.
21:41Yeah.
21:41Yeah, this is karma.
21:42Do you just...
21:43Do you think I'm stupid?
21:44Huh?
21:44Do you think I'm stupid?
21:45I know how this works.
21:46I know how this works.
21:47If they don't want to get to me, they'll come through with my kids.
21:48Yeah, whose fault is that?
21:49Robbie.
21:49Robbie, it's OK.
21:50All right?
21:51No one's got Nugget.
21:52I spoke to Avani, OK?
21:54I know what happened to Nugget.
21:55It was just something about that video stuff, OK?
21:57He went off.
21:58He's stressed.
21:58It's OK.
21:59Debbie is.
22:04Son, what are you playing at?
22:06What are you playing at?
22:07Doing a disappearing act?
22:09Turning your phone off?
22:10Blocking your location?
22:11I need to know where you are.
22:12I, though.
22:13100% of the time.
22:14Do you understand?
22:15Robbie!
22:16I want you home.
22:20I want you home!
22:21Now!
22:27Oi!
22:29Why are you giving Zach a hard time?
22:31Do I need to remind you?
22:32I have put the past behind me, and so is he.
22:35The only person getting hurt by your little vendetta, Ian, is Ross.
22:39Is that what you want?
22:41No.
22:42Then leave Zach alone.
22:44And for the sake of the wedding, just get over it.
22:49Um, sorry, mate.
22:50I've been a complete idiot.
22:52I mean, she's told me that Zach's actually a good bloke, so if he's good enough for Vicky,
22:58it's good enough for me.
22:59So I'll add him to the group chat.
23:01Well, he's the best man, isn't he?
23:03Thanks, mate.
23:06And that is why I'm marrying you.
23:12Oh, there she is.
23:13Ah!
23:14You're on fire, Lauren!
23:16Just had a delivery.
23:17You know, I think this flipping classic motor's going to be a winner.
23:21You might actually do this.
23:23Right?
23:23Well, I don't know why you ever doubted me.
23:24What'd you pay for that?
23:25A couple of hundred, all?
23:28What, more?
23:28A couple of thousand?
23:29Wow.
23:30I think it's big.
23:30I love it, Lauren.
23:31Well, Phil's still got to take a cut of the arches, but...
23:34I reckon I could triple my money, maybe.
23:36Yeah, yeah.
23:37Obviously taught you really well, hadn't I?
23:42What the hell is this?
23:44This is your master plan, apparently.
23:53You never turn your location off!
23:55Paul, is that a rule?
23:55I'm making it a rule!
23:56Can you stop shouting, please, Dad?
23:59This boy's from really horrible to nugget.
24:00He doesn't need you shouting as well.
24:02Yeah, finally, I'm just trying to keep everyone safe.
24:04It's okay?
24:05What about keep us happy?
24:10No, maybe we were too hard on him, okay?
24:12All this informing stuff, it's over.
24:14Yeah, babe!
24:14You're in the queue!
24:15I know, babe!
24:16I'm...
24:17You know, these people, we can't be too careful.
24:19Not when it comes to these people.
24:20We can't.
24:23I'll make some food.
24:31You need to call me back.
24:34A little bit of TLC, you said.
24:35You've sold me a complete heap of junk.
24:38I want my money back.
24:42No, if you're going to moan about Cindy, I do not want to hear it.
24:46Fair.
24:48Alfie?
24:49Yes, love?
24:49Have you set me up with a con artist or something?
24:52What?
24:52You're talking about Ray?
24:54He's a lovely bloke.
24:56Prison completely changed him.
24:59Okay, that was a long time ago.
25:01He sent me a complete wreck.
25:02It don't look nothing like the photos.
25:04All right.
25:05You don't buy a car without seeing it, do you?
25:08Sorry, what's that?
25:10Sorry, what's that?
25:10You hear that?
25:11You need the barrel.
25:11I've got to change.
25:12Yeah, I'm on my way.
25:13Just got to change the barrel.
25:20Oh.
25:23Why don't you give me the keys and I'll take a look at the car.
25:25See what the damage is.
25:26Why the hell would I do that?
25:28Because you made a deal with Phil.
25:30And then Phil made a deal with me.
25:33Does that mean you and me are partners?
25:36Oh.
25:38Oh.
25:44Oh.
25:53Oh.
26:05Oh.
26:07Oh.
26:20Oh.
26:23Oh.
26:24Oh.
26:24Oh.
26:26Oh.
26:27Oh.
26:27Oh.
26:27Oh.
26:28Oh.
26:29Oh.
