00:01BOOM BASOMA
00:01BOOM BASOMA
00:02BOOM BASOMA
00:02BOOM BASOMA
00:15BOOM BASOMA
00:16Cheers, mate.
00:19Did you bring that off yourself, didn't you?
00:21It sounded like Lauren.
00:22She's convinced I staged the whole thing
00:24just so I could sell more motors.
00:26Has it worked yet?
00:27Hardly.
00:28Made up all weekend making painkillers.
00:32How have you been?
00:34Well, my thighs look like Caribbean sunsets,
00:37but you know me, I don't complain.
00:40You know the one memory that keeps coming back to me?
00:43You and me, back at the ambulance.
00:46Really? Not the eight flips and the car explosion?
00:50No, well, we never set a date, did we?
00:52What if we do lunch at George's later?
00:55I don't know, Max.
00:57We haven't exactly got the best track record, have we?
01:01Maybe it's just the best left in the moment.
01:04That sounds like you only like people this dangerous.
01:07To be honest of you,
01:09it's the only way I like anything.
01:15Right, well, I'm gonna book it for half twelve then.
01:18It'll be under Mr. and Mrs. Claus.
01:24Hey, well done, Max. Brilliant.
01:26Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
01:27Oh, oh.
01:30Dude, you idiot.
01:31Hey!
01:32Hey!
01:34What's the matter with you?
01:35Mate!
01:35I've just been in one smash.
01:37I don't want to be in another one, do you know what I mean?
01:40Proper idiot.
01:41I don't believe this.
01:43Where have you been?
01:44What, your fingers broke?
01:45You couldn't even call us back?
01:48It was a surprise to get you cool.
01:51In a good way.
01:52And, um, looking well.
01:55So, gonna give me a hug?
01:57No, I'm not gonna give you a hug.
02:00Right.
02:01Well then, I'm off to the cafe for a cup of tea and a fryer.
02:29Any news on Ravi?
02:31Yeah.
02:31Um, he's been assessed and admitted, so me and Suki are gonna go see him later.
02:37What are you watching?
02:38Nothing.
02:39Why are you watching it for?
02:41Um, excuse me, unless you want me to confiscate it?
02:45He's a laughing stock now.
02:47You do understand your dad's not well?
02:50Well, he weren't ill when he was lying to me for months.
02:53Making out he was my protector when you-
02:54Listen, this is all because of his issues.
02:56Right?
02:57He's been fixated on safety because he never felt safe himself.
03:01Okay, Mum.
03:04If you say so.
03:21You said you needed to see me and you made it sound pretty urgent.
03:25I dropped a lot of things to be here.
03:27It is urgent.
03:29It's through with Nigel.
03:31They need your help.
03:32If they want me, they know how to get hold of me.
03:35Nigel's not good, Grant.
03:38Actually, it's much worse than-
03:42Alright, what's up?
03:45You've missed a lot, Grant.
03:48Nigel's not really Nigel anymore.
03:51Which mean?
03:52Well, he barely speaks.
03:53He can't take his meds without help.
03:57I could love him, but I think he's on his way out.
04:00There you go.
04:01Hope you choke on it.
04:04Is there a problem?
04:05Because you have been giving me attitude ever since I walked in.
04:09You don't recognise me, do you?
04:12His mum is my mum.
04:17Vicky.
04:18The sauces are over there.
04:20Thank you for ruining my life.
04:28Alright, erm...
04:29Look, is Nigel up yet?
04:30Because it would be nice to see someone who's actually pleased to see me.
04:34Grant, he's not of Phil's.
04:35He's been in a care home for the last couple of months.
04:38Are you telling me Phil has dumped Nigel in a care home?
04:45Oh, Sherry!
04:46You've got a dirty laugh, you are.
04:50How can you tell a joke like that in front of your kids?
04:53He's alright, he lives in a pub.
04:55You alright, Jasmine?
04:56Yeah.
04:56Listen, can you go in front of you?
04:57I've got to sort his veruca out.
04:59He's got to swim in later.
04:59Yeah, I'm going to bum everyone.
05:00No, you're not.
05:01You're going to swim nicely.
05:02Yeah, yeah.
05:03Cheers.
05:04Right, well, well, well, old horses, everybody.
05:06Being as I'm king of the castle, I get to sit on the throne first, thank you.
05:09Funny this morning, aren't you?
05:10Well, Kat, you know I've got to meet in the brewery with Doreen, you know.
05:13She fancies me.
05:14I know you've been a bit jealous, so I've got to sort out my manscape, you know,
05:17because she loves me with my curly chest hair.
05:20Fee, what year are you living it in?
05:21Oh, you can pipe down as well.
05:23The year is 1983 when things were much easier.
05:26We didn't have mobile phones, we had breakfast telly, the pound coin was introduced,
05:29and music was much better.
05:31Yeah, we had Wham, we had Culture Club.
05:33Hey, who's our favourite?
05:34Katja Guka.
05:35Oh, yeah.
05:36Tushasha, hush hush, awa.
05:39Tushasha, hush hush, awa.
05:41Hurry up, hurry up, I need to have a number two.
05:45I'm trying to keep my breakfast down in here, Nan.
05:47Doing it?
05:47You don't even live here.
05:48Oi, Sasquatch, what are you doing in my kimono?
05:50A funny story.
05:51I'll tell you later when I made it out.
05:54Oh.
05:56Oh!
05:57Oh!
05:59Hey, hey, hey!
06:00Oh no!
06:03We don't get to 90 without having a move or two.
06:07You hold on a second.
06:08He promised he'd look after him.
06:10To the end, he said.
06:12Unbelievable.
06:13Now hang on, listen, it wasn't like that, right?
06:15He just didn't have a choice.
06:21What are you doing here?
06:22I came to see Nigel.
06:23I didn't know you were here too.
06:25Oh, yeah.
06:25I've been here for quite a while, actually.
06:27Look, I can't stand around talking.
06:28You've got to get to the hospital.
06:29Why?
06:30What's happened to him?
06:31It's Nigel.
06:31He fell in the middle of the night and my phone was undead.
06:34I've just picked up for the message.
06:35Have you told Phil?
06:36Of course I've not told Phil.
06:37I mean, he's not going to do anything, is he?
06:39I'm going to get the bus and I'll see you later.
06:40I'll drive you.
06:41Get him.
06:41What?
06:42No.
06:43I called you to talk to Phil.
06:45He stopped seeing Nigel, and you've got to have a word with him.
06:47The abandoned are best mates.
06:49He's been keeping me in the dark.
06:51Why should I do anything for him?
06:52Because he's your brother.
07:11He's been keeping me in the dark.
07:11He's been keeping me in the dark.
07:27Following the assessments, we believe you have complex post-traumatic stress disorder or CPTSD.
07:37Throughout your life, you've experienced significant input.
07:43And it's now got to the point where it's difficult to control things.
07:47So I'm weak.
07:50Is that what you hear I'm saying?
07:53No control, no use, equals weak.
08:00Those terms?
08:02Weak.
08:04No use.
08:05They feel familiar.
08:08Pria, did you perhaps hear them growing up?
08:15My dad didn't love me.
08:22Oh well.
08:24You have a harsh tone towards yourself.
08:32Are you looking forward to seeing your partner later?
08:35Pria?
08:36I understand you have children.
08:41I am.
08:44I need to keep a distance.
08:48I need to protect them from me because I'm poisoned.
08:57And they deserve to be happy.
09:00They deserve to be happy.
09:03You're aware of Grish Dijivan?
09:06The life of the householder?
09:10This has nothing to do with God?
09:14Much of what's been preoccupying you.
09:18Doing good.
09:20Being selfless, protecting others.
09:23It's central to the faith.
09:27Now most are shown those values by compassion and love within the family unit.
09:33Others aren't.
09:35Why do you keep going there?
09:40I blame myself.
09:41No one else.
09:43You do acknowledge a problematic relationship with the paternal figures in your life?
09:49No.
09:51No.
09:52No.
09:53Not anymore.
09:53Because they are dead.
10:00They're dead.
10:03Death often emphasizes the shadow.
10:07I can help build an understanding of who you are, Ravi, and how you got here.
10:14I understand it feels like a lot has been taken away.
10:18But my aim is to give you back control.
10:24So how about we both work together with that in mind?
10:35Oh.
10:46Have you been looking for a midnight snack in the dark again?
10:51I've got someone here who's going to tell you off about that.
10:59Sit with him, Grant.
11:04I'm sorry.
11:18I trust Councillor to Bea Beal will get your vote next week.
11:22You must be joking.
11:24I ain't going on no database.
11:26No.
11:26Rest assured, he is going to change the face of local politics.
11:30Well, he couldn't change a traffic light.
11:33Here, Bea.
11:34I reckon he should have his picture taken with him.
11:36Maybe Max's magic might rub off on that little...
11:39I think you'll find that Ian rubs off on his own magic.
11:42Thank you very much.
11:50Sorry you got booted to the back of the queue this morning.
11:52That's all right.
11:53Last one in, I suppose.
11:54There's no pecking order in this family.
11:57Three rules.
11:58Give it, take it, and have a good laugh.
12:01That's it.
12:18It's tough to see, isn't it?
12:21I can't believe it's him.
12:24I had this image in my head.
12:26Bumbling.
12:28Forgetful.
12:29But still, Nige, not that.
12:33The whole thing's just been brutal.
12:36So why has Phil been keeping me in the dark?
12:39No.
12:40No, you don't get to play that card, Grant.
12:43You've ignored all my calls.
12:47All right.
12:48I was worried.
12:50Worried what I was going to hear.
12:53When I got back to Portugal, it really hit me hard.
12:57What Phil went through.
13:00Sam.
13:02Our brother wanted to end his life.
13:05And there was nothing I could do.
13:09I just think, as a family, we're just not good at sharing things.
13:14Don't tell me something's happened to you.
13:17No.
13:20Oh, Julie.
13:22Oh, darling.
13:22Come here.
13:26You know, when I got that message this morning, the first thing I thought of was I hoped he'd
13:31die.
13:32No.
13:33No, no, no.
13:34You don't mean it.
13:35You love him.
13:36He thinks it's smothering our love.
13:39You know, him, me, all of it.
13:41I just...
13:42I just can't do this anymore.
13:44I wouldn't stop.
13:45Look.
13:46You're not on your own anymore.
13:48I'm going to take care of things then.
13:50You take a break with Sam.
13:53I'll go and sit with Nigel.
13:57Come on.
13:57Come on.
13:58It's too much.
13:59Oh.
14:10Yes, it is.
14:12What do you want?
14:14Bea thinks that we should get a photo together for the campaign socials.
14:19Yeah.
14:19It would be great.
14:19The two heroes of Walford.
14:21Come on.
14:22Do we have to?
14:22Yes.
14:23It's totally non-negotiable.
14:24Now, if you could just stand together.
14:25Stand together.
14:26Yeah.
14:26Hold them up.
14:27Hold them up.
14:28Yes, that's it.
14:28Closer.
14:29Closer.
14:30Smile.
14:31Think bosom buddies.
14:33Okay?
14:37Look at this.
14:38Walford's John McLean.
14:40Have to break out the cape that you framed for Ollie.
14:42Get you to wear it at breakfast.
14:43Oh.
14:44You've got a cape?
14:45Well, that would be brilliant.
14:46Go and get it.
14:47It was a joke, Bea.
14:49It's disappointing.
14:51All right.
14:52Oh.
14:53It's good.
14:53It's good.
14:54It's good.
14:54It's good.
14:55It's good for me.
14:57And how do you find it more suffering amusing?
14:59Yeah.
14:59Well, I haven't held back in criticising you, so it's only fair that I say well done.
15:04You're finally making progress on the whole being a decent person thing.
15:08Well, I'll get a badge.
15:10Hi, Max.
15:12Sorry I'm late.
15:14You didn't stand me up, eh?
15:15Yeah, well, you know me.
15:17I should be late as always.
15:18I should be late.
15:19I should be nay.
15:36Come on in.
15:38Who did this to you, Marge?
15:51Shall I get him for you?
15:55Yeah.
15:57Get him, Phil.
16:23Go on and live a place, Chance.
16:24Yes.
16:25You, uh, you seen Julie?
16:27There's a chicken pie on today as well.
16:28Yeah.
16:29Do you want chips, veg?
16:31Oi!
16:31Cloth ears, I'm talking to you.
16:33Would you care where Julie is, Phil?
16:35Hmm?
16:40And I was wondering, have you been keeping my old man up to date with developments on
16:45Nigel?
16:46He's got nothing to do with it.
16:50You got a sign to tell me or something?
16:54Julie's at the hospital.
16:56Nigel took a tumble in the night.
17:06What are you waiting for?
17:07Go!
17:09Who's with him?
17:10Julie?
17:11Yeah.
17:13And Sam.
17:17I'll just get in the way, I'll leave him to the hill.
17:20I'll be at the archers.
17:42Right then.
17:44Ready to go clubbing?
17:49Kids send their love.
17:52Are they here?
17:55No. No, they're at college.
17:58You know, trying to keep things normal.
18:04But, um...
18:06I could bring them next time.
18:13Look, you're gonna be all right.
18:15These people here, they know what they're doing.
18:17And they're gonna help you to see how everything fits.
18:22They're gonna help you, and so am I.
18:25You shouldn't have come.
18:27I'm all tough.
18:30I'm serious.
18:32Look, I know you, Ravi.
18:35Okay? You're someone that holds yourself with pride, so...
18:39I can understand why...
18:42Why this might...
18:44I don't know, it might feel a bit humiliating.
18:48And look, I get that, and I get the need to hide away, but not from me.
18:53You're setting me off.
18:55So how am I setting you off?
18:56We're done, Priya.
18:58What?
18:59Could someone come in, please?
19:01Ravi! Come on, Ravi!
19:03Look, I know what you're doing, and this is self-sabotage.
19:05And I ain't gonna let you do it, okay?
19:07I ain't gonna let you do it, because I love you.
19:09I don't love you.
19:12I don't love you.
19:16I don't love you.
19:18I need to work alone.
19:21Just me.
19:23It's the only way to...
19:26It's the only way to...
19:30It's the only way to...
19:35Yeah, because we can rebuild her.
19:40Is Mary really 90?
19:42Apparently.
19:43No-one's ever actually seen her birth certificate.
19:46Did you guys celebrate?
19:47Oh, well, yeah, we're going to, but...
19:50Because I feel like I want to throw her a party.
19:52Of course.
19:53Is that mad?
19:53It's a mad idea, isn't it?
19:54I can't, James.
19:55You're talking belated.
19:56In fact, you're talking very belated.
19:58Yeah, no, it is mad.
19:59Do you know what?
19:59Forget it, don't worry about it.
20:00It's fine.
20:01Stupid.
20:02No, no, no, no, no.
20:03Just, um...
20:05Thinking about it, I mean...
20:08How many more has she gone round for?
20:09Alfie!
20:10I don't mean it.
20:10I think it's a great idea.
20:12Big Slater knees up his will overdue.
20:14Oh, okay.
20:15I can see it, you know.
20:17Well, you know, I've shaved my chest,
20:18get a new dress,
20:19we'll sort out our guest list,
20:20get some grub.
20:21Actually, can you leave it with me?
20:22What?
20:23I want to organise it.
20:24Oh, okay.
20:25You go, girl.
20:29Didn't get jealous, did ya?
20:31All them women flitting around me outside.
20:34You really do love yourself, don't you?
20:37Do you kiss yourself in the mirror every morning, Michelle?
20:39Yeah, of course.
20:41So I'm not doing it in my face.
20:45You know, you've been the devil to me for so long.
20:50The last week I didn't see that.
20:53I saw an okay person.
20:55Wow.
20:57That is the highest compliment you've ever paid me, I think.
21:00Yeah, well, don't get used to it.
21:01Well, I want to get used to it.
21:04I like to win it all, Ian.
21:05It's fun.
21:06It's naughty.
21:08We stick two fingers up to the world.
21:13Well, um...
21:14What about the kids?
21:16What about Ian?
21:17What about everyone?
21:18It's nothing.
21:19Who says they have to know?
21:22So what do you reckon?
21:23Yeah.
21:26It's a danger.
21:28It's a chaos.
21:31And...
21:32It's a fun.
21:41Yeah.
21:48Oi!
21:50Did you not hear me earlier?
21:52I phoned you to help with Phil.
21:54So if you're too scared to talk to your brother,
21:56why don't you sort off back to Portugal, eh?
21:58You're turning to a right leery little kid, yeah?
22:01Must be in the jeans, mustn't it?
22:03Can you talk to him or what?
22:05I ain't in.
22:09You and me need to chat.
22:25I'm in the state of him, Phil.
22:27I mean, you promised you'd be there for him.
22:30And Julie as well.
22:32I mean, what's wrong with you?
22:35How can you ignore their suffering?
22:37It's embarrassing.
22:42I thought he was acting weird earlier.
22:46You phoned him, didn't you?
22:50Did you know?
22:51I think you're just avoiding something painful, Phil.
22:54Yeah, well, that's my mate dying.
22:55And not yours.
22:56So how I deal with it, that's my business.
23:00And you...
23:02You bring the ultimate cop out, man, to try and strong-arm me.
23:05You really don't know your old man, do you?
23:07Shutting people out, though, Phil.
23:08Oh, why don't you shut up, eh?
23:09He's right. You're just scared.
23:12All right? You don't want to look at it, but you've got to.
23:14Oh, this!
23:15This coming from the woman who hadn't even told her, her own brother, that he had cancer.
23:22What?
23:27Where'd you get to?
23:29So, how'd it go?
23:32Yeah, good.
23:33Kid, Dad sends his love.
23:37Oh, God, that smells amazing.
23:39Thanks for doing that, Sookie.
23:41I'll set the table.
23:43So, how was your day?
23:45All right.
23:47What happened?
23:51Er...
23:51Well, he's dumped me.
23:53What?
23:54Yeah.
23:56He said he wants to go it alone.
23:58Like, I trigger him, or something.
24:01Everything is in pieces, and I've got no idea how to fix it.
24:04You can't fix it, Priya.
24:06That's his job.
24:08The kids...
24:09They need a dad, and a well one.
24:12So I guess I just have to stomach it.
24:17Is there anything I can do?
24:21Go and see him?
24:23See if we'll keep in contact with you.
24:26If you can.
24:29All right.
24:37So, sorry, Sam.
24:39So...
24:40So, what's the situation now? Are you all right?
24:42Yeah, yeah.
24:42No, look, I'm good.
24:43I got it seen to you quickly, you know?
24:46Apart from check-ups, I'm all clear.
24:49What are you gawping at?
24:51Eh?
24:52No.
24:53I gave you a home.
24:54I put a roof over you.
24:55I thought you was family, but nah.
24:57You're just a little snake.
24:59Oh, don't pick on him, Phil.
25:00It's all right. Just last night.
25:01You know, why am I even bothering talking to you?
25:02What are you even doing in my ass?
25:04Eh?
25:04Get out!
25:05Get out!
25:06You ain't the only one that's suffering.
25:08Oh, here we go.
25:09Fishing for sympathy.
25:10You used to do that when we were kids and all, didn't you?
25:12You know?
25:12No one ever helps me.
25:14Yeah, well, they don't.
25:15I bet you you've been slagging me off not being here.
25:17But when did you ever come and see me?
25:18Well, why has everything got to be down to me?
25:20Why is it all down to me?
25:21Why have I got to be the magician who fixes everything?
25:24You and everyone else.
25:25Well, tell you what.
25:25I've had enough.
25:26All right?
25:27I've had enough.
25:28So you can go and sort yourselves out.
25:29Just a bit you're scared, Phil.
25:31Scared?
25:31Scared of what?
25:32I ain't scared.
25:33Because when Nigel dies, you're gonna have nothing to focus on.
25:37Okay?
25:37I get it.
25:38And there's feelings that might come.
25:40They could take you somewhere you don't want to go.
25:42To rock bottom.
25:43You can get it out.
25:44You get it out.
25:45Oh, go on, go.
25:46I need my little baby sister analyze me.
25:48Go on.
25:49Go.
25:49I reckon you're having a go at everyone because you feel guilty.
25:53You ain't done enough for nothing.
25:54Done.
25:54Done what I've done.
25:55I've done everything, Grant.
25:57All right?
25:57Everything.
25:58And I would swap places with Nigel in a heartbeat.
26:02But I can't.
26:02I can't.
26:03And it don't matter.
26:04It don't matter how much I want something.
26:05All right?
26:06Because it ain't gonna happen.
26:06It ain't gonna happen for me.
26:08It ain't gonna happen for you.
26:08It ain't gonna happen for anyone.
26:10All right?
26:10Because it's over.
26:12It's over, Grant.
26:13All right?
