00:00MUSIC
00:14Giving Mummy a break.
00:16I had you, Dan, as more of a papoose kind of a man.
00:21Some men struggle while others take to fatherhood like a fish to water.
00:24Which one are you?
00:25It's not easy.
00:26Nothing of meaning ever is.
00:28But, um, it must feel good to have a nice little holiday.
00:32It's paternity leave, not a holiday.
00:34Yes, of course.
00:35But while some sleep, the competition wakes up.
00:38I'm sorry?
00:39Fuck my dad used to say to me.
00:41I'm not sleeping.
00:42No, neither is your colleague, Richard.
00:45It's fair to say, he is shining in your absence.
00:48This time off, I'm entitled to it.
00:50It doesn't mean that I'm not looking forward to getting back to work.
00:53Entitled.
00:54The buzzword of a whole generation.
00:56And snowflake.
00:57I'm not a snowflake or entitled.
00:59No, of course you're not.
01:01The label's always applied to someone else, don't they?
01:03But you do have choices, though, Jacob.
01:05You get back to work, or you stay at home,
01:08wondering which teat is best to put your baby on.
01:18Do we have to go in?
01:19I don't want to go anywhere.
01:20Come on, what are you all frightened of?
01:22I've opened you hundreds of times.
01:24It just feels a bit different, though.
01:25Come on.
01:25Hi.
01:31Here they are.
01:32The innocent three.
01:34Finally, justice has done what it's supposed to do.
01:37It's great to see you, gents.
01:38Must be a massive weight off your shoulders.
01:40Jimmy, I was convicted.
01:42I got a suspended sentence.
01:43Yeah, and what he did, he did for me.
01:45He did nothing wrong.
01:46Dad, I told you.
01:47Nothing to feel guilty about.
01:49And a suspended sentence.
01:51Everybody knows what that means.
01:52Nothing.
01:53The main thing is,
01:54you're free to get on with your lives again.
01:57What life?
01:59Take a seat.
02:01I'll be along for your order.
02:03Today, it's on the house.
02:04You don't have to do that.
02:05I want to.
02:12You OK, sweetheart?
02:14Yeah, it just feels like people are looking at me.
02:16No, they're not.
02:18You don't even feel.
02:19Just let them, eh?
02:20Cos this, this is what being innocent looks like.
02:23What it looks like doesn't matter.
02:25People are going to think I'm a criminal for a very long time.
02:28That's just me, nobody else.
02:30He's choking me.
02:31After what he did in that courtroom,
02:32standing up there, speaking out.
02:34People, that's what heroes do.
02:36I could not be more proud of you.
02:39Well, I won't feel that much of an hero
02:40if that disciplinary hearing doesn't go on my way.
02:42I'd have to come and wait for you in the salon.
02:44Oh, yeah.
02:44We're rushed down our feet at the moment.
02:47Good to be busy, isn't it?
02:48Which is why...
02:50I've got something lined up for you, you know.
02:52What can I get you?
02:5757! Impressive!
03:00I was aiming for 20.
03:02And, er, the other times I really did mean to miss the board.
03:06You've also got other things on your mind.
03:08Any word on Paddy's disciplinary hearing?
03:10Oh, not yet.
03:12I can't stop thinking about it.
03:14What if it doesn't go his way?
03:15Vanessa, the most important thing is
03:17that all three of them walked out of the courtroom.
03:20Everything he's been through, though,
03:22and it hasn't ended yet.
03:23He's still suspended from the surgery.
03:25It could have been so much worse.
03:27It won't happen overnight,
03:28but with friends like you and Rona by his side,
03:30good loyal friends,
03:32that'd be so much easier.
03:34Are you sure she doesn't want to be more than just friends?
03:37Don't.
03:39Is it just me,
03:40or does every new mum leaves to find?
03:42Oh, as long as it's not the baby.
03:43Isn't she beautiful?
03:46Yeah, she has her moments.
03:47At that age, you need to savour every moment.
03:50It still mystifies me
03:51why so many fathers can't wait to go back to work.
03:53Well, probably, because work is easier.
03:56And Jacob's obviously at the front of that queue.
03:59Is he?
04:00Sorry, has he said something?
04:02Oh, probably nothing you don't know already.
04:04But to quote,
04:05I'm entitled to time off.
04:06That doesn't mean I'm not looking forward to getting back to work.
04:09You are a very understanding wife.
04:11Good for you.
04:12Not so sure I would be.
04:12I'm not looking forward to getting back to work.
04:16I'm not looking forward to getting back to work.
04:16Ah.
04:16Can I get you a triple chance of working?
04:21So when were you going to tell your silly little housewife
04:23that you can't wait to get back to work?
04:26Sorry?
04:27What are you talking about?
04:28Why are you calling yourself that?
04:29Because that's what I am, isn't it?
04:31Happy to stay at home and do all the parents' stuff
04:33while you can't wait to escape back to the hospital?
04:35Sarah?
04:35Do you know what?
04:35I don't know what's the worst.
04:36Finding out that you're so miserable
04:37or finding out from someone else?
04:38Maybe we should talk about this later.
04:40Who exactly...
04:41Your boss, Jacob.
04:42Dr Todd.
04:43And yeah, we will talk about this later.
04:50Wedding bells.
04:52Hey.
04:53If you ever decide to change the name of Take a Vow,
04:56you could call it that.
04:59Because...
04:59Bell works that too.
05:02You could have that.
05:03Thank you, Jimmy.
05:11Business or pleasure?
05:13What are you doing here?
05:14Something's jumpy today.
05:15Yeah, well, you crapped up on me.
05:17In answer to your question, pleasure.
05:19I'm just looking for availability.
05:21Okay.
05:21We could always pay, make sure someone has availability.
05:25It's your answer to everything, isn't it?
05:27Money.
05:28Hey, this is our wedding day.
05:29I want you to have the best day possible.
05:31And in answer to your question, no.
05:32It's not always about money.
05:34Hey.
05:35Are you still in front of me in there?
05:38Yeah.
05:39Yeah, why wouldn't I be?
05:40Well, I don't want to say you've taken your eye off the ball recently, but...
05:42Well, maybe a dingle ball.
05:44Isn't that interesting?
05:45I'll be there, and I haven't taken my eye off anything.
05:49Oh, speak of the devil.
05:51Hey, I've got one for you.
05:53What do you think of wedding bells?
05:58They just leave a smell wherever they go, don't they?
06:02Chow.
06:08You've got it framed.
06:09Yeah.
06:10Well, the kids helped me choose that.
06:12I'll be honest, I'm not 100% sure what I'm looking at there,
06:15but I've never been more excited about anything in my entire life.
06:19Almost as excited as the kids.
06:21They're counting down the days.
06:26I'm sorry.
06:27Why have you brought me here?
06:28Liam said he needs help.
06:29You're not doing anything else, are you?
06:32Welcome.
06:33You join me at a time when the land is offering up its most precious gift.
06:39Look at the asparagus.
06:41Nothing says early summer more than these magnificent spears of deliciousness.
06:45You can almost hear them singing in the soil.
06:49I can't hear anything.
06:50We don't only have the kingdom vegetables, we've also got spring onions,
06:54a glut of radishes, almost an embarrassment of rhubarb.
06:58I said it looks like you're going to be busy.
06:59Whoopee-doo.
07:00I'll even see it.
07:00Don't wait too long.
07:08Oi.
07:09I'm sorry, I was just on my way to the...
07:11Do what you want to me, but don't you dare bring my family into it!
07:14I think you're going to have to elaborate.
07:15I'm not quite sure what you're referring to.
07:16Oh, I think you do.
07:18Making out that I don't want to be at home.
07:20That Layla's doing my head in.
07:21That I can't wait to get back to work.
07:23I'm not quite sure you're ready to go back to work.
07:25Are you actually getting enough sleep?
07:26Seriously, what is wrong with you?
07:28And I could ask you the same question, Jacob.
07:30Honestly, if you're struggling, perhaps you need to talk to someone.
07:32I'm talking to you.
07:34Well, you're going to have to hit the pause button, because nature calls.
07:44I can't do this.
07:46I'm sorry.
07:46I know I said I could, but I can't.
07:49It's just too much, all right?
07:50I don't want to let you down, but I'm not...
07:51Hey, hey, hey, slow down.
07:54Joe's told the kids I'm pregnant.
07:55And now it's all they're talking about.
07:57They think they've got this whole home farm family life stretching in front of them.
08:00It doesn't even exist.
08:02OK.
08:03But the money you're going to get from Joe, they'll get a better one.
08:06Moira, do you think it's that easy?
08:08You've no idea how close they are to him now.
08:10Because they don't know who he is, what he is.
08:13He's a different person with us, OK?
08:15He is.
08:16I know you don't get it, you won't believe it, but it's true.
08:18And this isn't about the money.
08:19We both knew this wasn't going to be easy.
08:21And we're just getting started.
08:23No, I'm just getting started.
08:25I'm the one who's having to pretend, and I can't do it.
08:37Wrong door.
08:38I'm not letting this go, no way.
08:40Oh, no.
08:41What are you going to do?
08:41Stamp your feet some more?
08:43Spit your dummy out?
08:44I'm sure there's a few of those lying round at home.
08:47You are a bully.
08:48Oh, that old chestnut again.
08:49You get off on it.
08:51Punch him down like you're on some power trip or something.
08:53And shall I tell you what you are?
08:54You are a weak, maladjusted young man with a huge chip on his shoulder
08:57who clearly doesn't like having a woman as his boss.
08:59That is not true.
09:01And I don't want to throw any labels around to call you a misogynist,
09:03but if the women-hating cat fits...
09:04Are you serious?
09:05I don't hate women, I just hate you!
09:08What the hell are you doing?
09:26I just needed to speak to her.
09:28So you wait outside.
09:30You don't just barge into women's spaces.
09:33Honestly, I'm fine.
09:34It's fine.
09:35I wasn't scared.
09:36You need to get out.
09:38Now!
09:38Vanessa, I really wasn't trying to scare her.
09:40Don't make me have to tell you again.
09:48Thank God the cavalry arrived.
09:50I can't believe that just happened.
09:52Oh, it's nothing.
09:52It was a big misunderstanding.
09:53He just got himself a bit riled up.
09:55Yeah, but it's not for the first time, is it?
09:57I need to have words with him.
09:58No, no, no, no, no.
09:59There's nothing I can't do with myself.
10:00Yeah, but you shouldn't have to.
10:01Who knows what would have happened if I didn't have walked in?
10:04No, but you did.
10:04And it's over now.
10:05He's a new father.
10:06He's probably all over the place.
10:08No, but that's...
10:09It's no excuse.
10:11They're a young family.
10:12It's not easy.
10:14What if he's making things even harder?
10:16Sometimes you have to tread carefully.
10:18No point throwing any petrol on the flames.
10:21He really doesn't have a clue how lucky he is to have a boss like you.
10:30If you've already made a decision, there's little that I can say to change your mind.
10:35What are you going to try anyway?
10:37When it all does get too much for you, and deep down you know it will,
10:43how easy do you think he's going to make it for you to walk away?
10:48But then it'll be too late, because he will never let you leave with his child.
10:53And he will fight you in court with everything that he's got,
10:56and things you don't even know he's got, and you won't be able to fight.
11:02How did I even get here?
11:05No, what you should still be asking yourself is,
11:07how will I ever get away from here?
11:09And you already know the answer.
11:12And this might not be about money, Don,
11:14but if you go to war with him,
11:16you're going to need all the weapons you could lay your hands on,
11:19and they don't come cheap.
11:21Moira, I know you just want to stick the knife in him.
11:24But it won't be blood on your hands, it'll be money in the bank.
11:28I swear to God, this isn't about that.
11:30I don't need a cut, however big it is.
11:33I don't need anything from that man.
11:35And you're not doing this for me.
11:37You're not even doing it for yourself.
11:38You are doing it for your kids.
11:41You are a lot stronger than you think, Don.
11:44You just need to fight.
11:47I'm sick of fighting Moira.
11:49I've done it my whole life.
11:51And we can all help you.
11:53You just need to let us help you.
12:01I owe you a fight.
12:02A hard day's work always deserves reward.
12:05I don't care if I never see a rubbish again.
12:07Oh, come off it.
12:09You loved every minute.
12:09I think you should thank your son for volunteering.
12:11Yeah, Paddy.
12:12And will there be anybody else in the room?
12:15Right.
12:15And the decision, will that be there and then, or will they have to wait?
12:19Vet board.
12:20And how long does that take, usually?
12:23Okay.
12:24No, it's fine.
12:25I probably won't sleep tonight, but, er...
12:27All right, I'll see you tomorrow.
12:28Bye-bye.
12:31Slippin' heck.
12:31Look at you two.
12:32The allotment.
12:33Never mind the allotment.
12:34What were they all about?
12:35Sounds serious.
12:36Disciplinary room.
12:37It's tomorrow.
12:38Well, better sooner rather than later, I suppose.
12:40Pint, pint.
12:41Yes, please.
12:42Yeah, go on then.
12:44Look, Paddy, I know it's, like, really important.
12:47Really important?
12:48It's everything.
12:49If I'm not a vet, I don't know what I am.
12:51Yeah, but the main thing is you're not in prison.
12:53If I don't get my job back tomorrow, therefore, my life, I might as well be in prison.
12:56Once they come to the census, they'll give you your job back in a heartbeat.
13:00Yeah, well, hopefully there's a tiny little chink of light right at the very end of the tunnel.
13:05I think we're already out the tunnel, Paddy.
13:06You should have realised it.
13:11Thanks, mate.
13:17Vanessa.
13:19I swore I wouldn't say anything.
13:21Look, about before.
13:22What the hell were you doing?
13:23Whatever you think you know.
13:24I know that you walked into the ladies' toilet making a woman feel very uncomfortable.
13:29I don't want to say frightened.
13:30Frightened?
13:31Are you serious?
13:32Did she even tell you why I was in there?
13:34Because you clearly have a problem with a female boss.
13:37There's some weird power dynamic going on with you.
13:39No, she's been telling Sarah that I'm desperate to get back to work.
13:42That I pretty much hated being a dad.
13:44Just all lies.
13:45I only see one liar and it isn't your boss.
13:47No, but she is the liar.
13:49She is the one with the problem.
13:51What, so you decided to barge into the women's toilet and attack her?
13:53I didn't attack her.
13:55Is that what she said?
13:56Just stay away from her, do you hear me?
13:58Because if I have to, I will make sure there'll be real consequences.
14:01Vanessa, you don't...
14:02Stop!
14:02Just stop!
14:05I hate saying this, Jacob, but honestly, your mother would be ashamed of you.
14:11Sorry, what is going on?
14:13Let him tell you.
14:18What was all that about?
14:21It's nothing.
14:23Jacob, that was not nothing.
14:26Fine, I'll go ask for an ass myself then, shall I?
14:29It's Dr Todd.
14:33She's been bullying me.
14:39It's a new door, it's a new door.
14:43What's up?
14:44What's wrong?
14:45Nothing, nothing.
14:46I'm fine.
14:46It's just my laptop playing up.
14:48It's technology.
14:48You know what I'm like.
14:49Yes, I do know what you're like.
14:50Because you're my wife.
14:52And I know there's nothing wrong with your laptop.
14:53Honestly, baby, it's not important.
14:56After everything you've been through, look, now you're on the other side.
15:00I don't want you worried about me.
15:02Andy, are you serious?
15:04It's not so.
15:06I can't solve the problem if I don't know what the problem is.
15:09Yeah, well, some things can't be solved.
15:13I thought you were rushed off your feet.
15:19Oh.
15:20It's been like this for ages.
15:23I've had no bookings, no walkings.
15:26With everything that's been going on, my head just wanted the right place to fix it.
15:29It's okay.
15:30No, it's not okay, because I don't know what I've done wrong.
15:32Everyone just wants the old singing, old dancing, fancy places in town.
15:36Hang on.
15:38Is this anything to do with me?
15:39What I've done?
15:40People knowing that you're married to me.
15:42No, no, no, no.
15:43Come on.
15:43Now you're overthinking things.
15:47I don't know what I'm going to do.
15:51It's going to be all right.
15:52I know things probably look bad at the moment.
15:54No, it is bad.
15:55No, actually, do you know what it's worth?
15:57It's horrific.
15:58I've got me overheads, the rent, and...
16:02I don't think I'm going to survive.
16:13It's a starting point.
16:14So what are you saying, Belle?
16:15It's a good idea, but it's not good enough.
16:17Surely you agree if we're changing the tagline of the whole business, we speak to professionals.
16:20Am I not a professional?
16:21No, Don, I'm sorry, but you're not.
16:23I mean, you bring other great stuff to the company.
16:26Okay, all right.
16:28Refreshments?
16:30No, I'm going to take this.
16:32Hey, thanks so much for calling you back.
16:36If only that annoying bell would stop ringing.
16:40I just feel like I'm banging my head against the brick wall.
16:42No, no, something much more dense, much harder, a dingle.
16:47I know it sounds awful, but I wish I could own take of her myself.
16:52I mean, I don't have to listen to her questioning me, putting the brakes on.
16:56Maybe you could.
16:58Sure, yeah, I'll just buy Belle out.
17:01I could buy her out.
17:04Seriously?
17:06When it comes to business, and putting dingles in their place, I'm always serious.
17:12No, no, no way.
17:13Why?
17:14Because I couldn't ask you to do that.
17:16What if I insisted?
17:18Bye, Don.
17:25I don't even remember when it started.
17:28Or what made it start.
17:32I mean, she was pretty hard with everyone.
17:35All the students, but with me, she just got harder and harder.
17:39Like it was actually personal.
17:43And all I could think was why.
17:45What had I done wrong?
17:47Nothing.
17:49I mean, I didn't get things right all the time.
17:52I made some mistakes, didn't know the answers to all the questions, but I wasn't the only one.
17:58But I was the only one that she'd pick on.
18:02And you know me, I'm not like, I'm not overly sensitive.
18:06No, totally.
18:11I don't know, but it felt like she was waiting for me to mess up so she could stamp on
18:16me again.
18:18And then sometimes she wouldn't even wait, she would just keep kicking me.
18:21Like she wanted a reaction, just so she could fail me.
18:25Look, some people are just not wired, right?
18:29I'm so sorry, Jacob.
18:38I want to be a doctor so much.
18:42But she makes me dread going to the hospital.
18:46I don't sleep.
18:53And then I feel knackered and I go in and I just feel sick.
19:03Like I'm waiting for her to come for me again.
19:12I don't know who I am anymore.
19:15What I'm meant to be.
19:17Look, listen, you are my husband.
19:19You are the father to our baby.
19:20And now I know what you're going through.
19:22We can deal with this.
19:23Together.
19:29I love you.
19:31We're going to get through this, okay?
19:32I'm going to help you.
19:34I can't believe it's over.
19:36I know Paddy's got a suspended sentence, but...
19:39At least they're not behind bars.
19:40Yeah, some people don't know what that's like.
19:44Sometimes you wake up and it feels like you're still in there.
19:47And you leave prison, but it takes a while for prison to leave here.
19:52Have you heard of knocking?
19:53No, you're going to want to hear this.
19:55Okay, what would you say if Joe wanted to buy you out of Takeoval?
19:59Are you serious?
20:00Well, I'd say that someone's put the idea in his head, Don.
20:03We'd angled the bait.
20:05Any bit.
20:06You jar, Ken?
20:07Bit hard.
20:08How you hard?
20:09Well, the money's going to be in my account tomorrow.
20:11What?
20:12How was it this easy?
20:14I couldn't have done it without you.
20:17Oh, yes!
20:18Oh, this makes me so happy.
