00:19Oh, and you've got the sarnies I made you, yeah.
00:21Oh, yeah.
00:21Oh, they were great last week.
00:23Yeah, no worries.
00:23I'm looking forward to them.
00:24Anyway, mate, great day.
00:26Yeah, yeah, cheers.
00:32You all right?
00:35Yeah.
00:37Didn't really sleep.
00:38Full English on the table, babe.
00:41Look at you.
00:43Perfect boyfriend, aren't you, Ross?
00:48Some truce.
00:50Just ignore him.
00:53Breakfast sounds great.
00:54Good.
01:01Honey.
01:02Honey.
01:03Sweetheart, that's the jam.
01:05Just one second, this is the honey.
01:06There you go.
01:07Honey on toast.
01:08Yeah, that's right.
01:09And knock yourself out, no edge.
01:11Have both.
01:12I want to go home.
01:16Enjoy yourself.
01:17Yeah, holiday.
01:19What do you think?
01:20It's my first day, so I want to make the right impression.
01:23See, it matches.
01:24Well, yeah.
01:25You look lovely.
01:27You've gone to all that trouble for Vinnie Panisar.
01:30Don't think I would have bothered, darling.
01:32Vinnie?
01:32Now, you must be joking.
01:34Now I know his type.
01:37Clipboard cliche.
01:38No, this is for honey.
01:40I don't want to let her down.
01:43Wish me luck.
01:45Don't know who needs it most.
01:47Do you know, actually, I don't need luck.
01:49I kind of really feel that I'm, you know, on a winning streak at the moment.
01:58Oh, I'm going to need to go for a run or something after that.
02:01Well, that is a proper way to start the day.
02:03Now, look.
02:04I know we can't fix things with a breakfast.
02:07Well, listen, don't...
02:08Just ignore Mark.
02:11He's overprotective.
02:12Really?
02:13I had no idea.
02:15Look, you've just been through so much.
02:18Right, and I want a fresh start for us.
02:22Me too.
02:23I want to pay Sharon back the money.
02:24Now, I know that she wrote off the debt because of everything that you went through,
02:27and that was amazing.
02:29But I just feel it's the right thing to do.
02:33And then, when we're back on our feet,
02:35let's get our own place.
02:36I mean, who knows?
02:38It's ambitious.
02:39Which bank you're going to rob?
02:41Well, actually, I've been thinking about doing a smash and grab
02:43on the jewellers on Jewel Street.
02:46And then, once I've robbed the place,
02:47I'm going to give them a flyer for Ross of All Trades
02:50and then come back and fix their windows.
02:51Ross of All Trades?
02:52That would be...
02:54My actual plan.
02:56Yeah, a handyman business.
02:58Build up a reputation, get some regular clients,
03:01start bringing back some proper money.
03:03I like it.
03:05Here, I'll do the washing up.
03:06You get married, too.
03:08All right.
03:08Love you.
03:09Hey, love you.
03:11This time next year...
03:12Oh, millionaire.
03:13You're all right.
03:15Hello, mate.
03:16Hello, mate.
03:16Sharon just wants me to look after the gym today.
03:18Got a gift for you.
03:19That's right.
03:20The big is in the kitchen.
03:21She'll sort you out.
03:22No worries.
03:22Cheers.
03:26You're going to sort me out, apparently.
03:31Yeah, she was the same at school.
03:33Yeah, she'd latch on to someone,
03:34make them a best friend.
03:36And she did teachers as well.
03:38Wow.
03:38A lot of red flags.
03:40I'm surprised you let me take her out.
03:41Uh, that's not my fault you offered.
03:44I would never set you up with her.
03:47Why is that?
03:49Take that look off your face.
03:51Linda!
03:53Is she still at yours?
03:54Uh, Julie, yeah.
03:56I'll do a favour and give that to her, will you?
03:58She needs to update her delivery address.
04:00I'll tell her the chicken's run out of food and I'll...
04:02Uh, Phil, wait.
04:03Look, all right, look, I...
04:04I've not stuck my nose in.
04:05Julie's got a lot on her date.
04:07But I am worried about you.
04:08What's happened?
04:09It is what it is.
04:11No, it must be breaking your heart to be away from Nigel.
04:14I don't want to talk about it, all right?
04:17It worries me when he gets like this.
04:20I've seen where it can end up.
04:22Look, I know you care, but trust me.
04:24There's one situation you don't want to get in the middle of.
04:28See you later.
04:29Yeah, bye.
04:32I want to help yourself.
04:33Hi.
04:34What's up, Phil?
04:35Cheers.
04:36Um, I don't know, Nigel, maybe.
04:38I ain't picking his phone up.
04:40A lot of people waiting outside of the gym complaining.
04:42Well, you'd better get down there, then.
04:44No, well, the thing is, start the month, innit?
04:47And a load of membership and all.
04:49So bad at paperwork, Vic.
04:51You want me?
04:52On my day off?
04:55After the week I've had?
04:56To come and sit in a basement and help you run a sweaty gym?
04:59Well, help Sharon.
05:02Am I going to get a free PT session out of this or what?
05:05I'll give you anything you want.
05:09Wow.
05:09Listen, listen.
05:10I'd really appreciate your help.
05:13Please.
05:16We are not just here to sell chocolate and dishcloths.
05:21We are here to make the whole shopping experience
05:23a pleasurable and holistic journey.
05:26Yeah.
05:27No, I like it.
05:28I really like it.
05:29Yeah, yeah, so do I.
05:31But what I really want to do is pay for this milk.
05:33Oh, yeah, sorry.
05:35All right.
05:36Hey.
05:36What sort of business are you running here?
05:38Would have been easier for me to buy the cow and milk it myself.
05:41What's the deal?
05:42I was just showing B the ropes.
05:45Yeah.
05:46Thanks for that, but I'll do the onboarding for new employees.
05:49Onboarding?
05:50For a corner shop?
05:51It's quite a complicated process, actually.
05:54And I brought Young Nugget to show him how it's done.
05:58Was that a punishment?
05:59Feels like it.
06:00Work experience.
06:02Andy's had a really, really tough time recently.
06:05This gets him out of the house.
06:06Can you not?
06:07I don't even know why I'm explaining myself.
06:09Sorry.
06:10Why are you laughing?
06:12Oh, I'm just here to buy milk.
06:15It's on the house.
06:16I will see you later.
06:21Right.
06:22Have you given her the health and safety form to complete?
06:26I was going to do that in a minute.
06:27Oh, no, that's why I do the onboarding.
06:30Not you.
06:30The person who left the till unattended while the place got robbed.
06:34Why are you having a go at her?
06:36Because there is a delivery in the middle of the aisle and a ton of work to do.
06:39Get it sorted.
06:41Bugget, this way.
06:53I've just, er, I've just seen Phil on the square.
06:55This, this came for you.
07:00Oh.
07:06You OK?
07:12Me and Nigel were going to renew our wedding vows.
07:16Oh, that's lovely.
07:17I've cancelled it.
07:18Well, you know, everything that's going on here, moving in here and things that are going on with Phil.
07:23It just felt too much, really.
07:27So, you and Phil, you, that's a burnt bridge, is it?
07:32What's he said?
07:33Not a lot.
07:34I mean, it's Phil, isn't it?
07:35He's just sort of grunted.
07:36Yeah.
07:39But, er, I do know that he's hurting.
07:43Mm.
07:44And I, I know that it's, you know, a lot, dealing with Nigel on your own.
07:51Well, was there a bit of a commotion last night?
07:54Someone said they heard some raised voices and...
07:57Without disturbing your other guests, are we?
07:59Oh, I don't, it's not what I mean.
08:00Because Nigel will be in a care room before you know it, and then we'll be out of your house
08:04soon.
08:05Look, Julie, please, I, I'm just, I'm just trying to help.
08:13I haven't seen how long it'll take them to make a bacon sandwich.
08:16The girls are the best up there.
08:18Yeah, I hear four cafes off injured, is it?
08:20Emma, I can't be here all day.
08:22Stop.
08:26Hi, welcome to Jasmine.
08:27Why would I?
08:29Don't know, a bit of space, a bit of time.
08:31Thought she might have called you.
08:32You were close.
08:33Yeah, it was the right word until you lot drove her off.
08:36I'm not going to hear from her.
08:37All right, I know that for sure.
08:39And you ain't never going to find her.
08:41Oh, absurd.
08:42Hey, hey, what about Zoe?
08:45Well, she's not going to cut her mother all to my life, well, not forever.
08:49And that way we could find her, huh?
08:51Well, Pops has got a point.
08:52No.
08:53No, if Zoe finds out that Jasmine's done a run, she'll be devastated.
08:56I can't do that to her.
08:57Listen, Emma, and you have every right to worry about her.
09:00After what she's done to my son?
09:02Your son was a monster.
09:04Easy.
09:04Sorry.
09:05I'm sorry, all right?
09:07I just don't want Zoe finding out.
09:15I don't understand why this is taking so long.
09:18But it's like one of those wooden dolls.
09:20You open one up and inside, another wooden doll.
09:22Inside another wooden doll.
09:24Inside another wooden doll.
09:25Saying wooden doll.
09:26Can she say matryoshka?
09:29It's Russian for wooden doll.
09:32She can say anything she likes as long as her 20-minute job takes 20 minutes, not an hour.
09:36First lesson of business.
09:37Time is money.
09:39It just feels like you're having a go at her.
09:40This kid learns fast.
09:42Well, this is management.
09:44This is harassment.
09:47Yeah.
09:48I'm done with this.
09:49I'm going home.
09:50Devinder, Devinder!
09:53Get this cleared.
09:55Word.
10:00You need to remember, this is a trial period.
10:03Comments like that won't do you any favors.
10:13This is all your fault.
10:18Look, I'm not blaming you, all right?
10:21I'm blaming Elaine.
10:22Then why are you snapping my head off?
10:24Because if you hadn't started this stupid feud, I wouldn't be in this mess.
10:27Yeah, but it wasn't me.
10:28It was Elaine, wasn't it?
10:28Oh, just go away, Ian.
10:30I don't need your help.
10:32Mum, you can hardly move.
10:33Ian, it's all right.
10:34I'll leave.
10:35Take a day off work and this is all the thanks you get.
10:39You all right?
10:41I thought I might be able to help out, but no chance.
10:45Well, you have a rest there.
10:46I'll get you a cuppa.
10:47And then maybe you could give me some tips on my new business.
10:51Try to build myself back up.
10:53You know, I'd be right by Biggie.
10:54You know, I hate my doubts about you, but you're a good man.
11:01Thanks.
11:02I just want to make her happy.
11:03That's good, because after everything that has happened, she needs to know that you are always going to be by
11:12her side.
11:15Yeah.
11:16Yeah, you're right.
11:19There's membership requests dating about months here.
11:22It's cancellations, not being processed.
11:24It is like Phil has literally shoved every single bit of paperwork in this file since Sharon went away.
11:29I should never have dragged you down and just forget you ever saw it, yeah?
11:32No, that's like asking me to leave a sink full of washing up.
11:36What, are you...
11:37Are you a clean freak?
11:39Oh, I'm filthy, you know that.
11:45No, what I'm saying is, you know, if I see a problem, I want to fix it.
11:49Yeah.
11:51Listen, this job's just so much bigger than I thought it was, seriously.
11:53I'm going to stick that back in the bottom drawer and just forget me to...
11:57Oh, Zach, I've just...
11:58All right.
11:59I've just sat down with her.
12:01What the hell are you doing, sir?
12:08That's such a mess.
12:09Don't worry.
12:10I've sorted.
12:11You know that's not what I meant.
12:13I'm going to go.
12:16No, you don't have to go yet.
12:24What do you think is this?
12:26What do you want?
12:27A relationship?
12:28An affair?
12:30You want a sweaty bunk up in the changing rooms?
12:31What?
12:32No, I'm with Ross.
12:34And I don't like lying to him.
12:46I'm sorry.
12:46I can't.
12:49Oh.
12:50What was that?
12:51Work night out?
12:53Do you always have to put your nose in?
12:57Sorry.
12:58It's fine.
13:00It's fine.
13:00I am a terrible gossip and I love a scandal.
13:02Oh, well, you'd have a field day with me, then.
13:05Listen.
13:06I'm not just the woman who owns the B&B, all right?
13:09Phil is a really good friend.
13:14We've helped each other through some of our darkest times.
13:19I owe him a lot.
13:21So you and Nigel, you know, you're part of that.
13:26I'd like to try and help make this easier for you.
13:31An extra rusher in the mornings, wouldn't I miss?
13:34Done.
13:35Although you'd better hide it from mum, because she will charge you extra.
13:38Mm-hmm.
13:40And if you've got the chance to go out tonight and switch off for a couple of hours, then you
13:44should.
13:46We're here.
13:48And we'd love to help, really.
13:51We can have dinner with Nigel, sit and watch one of his favourite films.
13:56You deserve a break.
14:03Ah, right.
14:04We are looking after Nigel tonight.
14:06Oh.
14:08Lovely.
14:09I'm not stalling, OK?
14:12I just need more time to find the grass.
14:15You don't need to threaten me, because I'm not playing games.
14:19No, no, no.
14:20Trust me.
14:20I will clear my name.
14:29Your son's in prison for battering Vicky, and you're trying to buy her off with some jewellery.
14:33So what I do, I've done your business.
14:36Have you got a ring in there?
14:39So, Mark, do one, mate.
14:41I don't believe this.
14:43You stood back and done nothing while Joel put her through hell, and now you expect her to marry her.
14:49You're really starting to wind me up now.
14:50Oh, you want to try it?
14:53Actually, maybe I do, yeah.
14:55Come on then, old man!
14:56Hey, Nats!
14:56Come on!
14:57Nats!
14:57What's the matter with you?
14:58Get off me!
14:59Come on!
15:01Do you know what?
15:03I am going to ask Vicky to marry me, and there is nothing you can do about it.
15:27Son!
15:33Yeah!
15:35Hey!
15:36How's work it's been to go?
15:38Oh, I'm sacked off.
15:41Right.
15:41Oh, OK.
15:43Look, I know you're finding things a bit hard at the moment, but...
15:46What are you getting on me for?
15:48No, no, no.
15:49I'm not getting at you.
15:50It's just, you know, me and your mum thought this would be good for you, just to get out
15:53of the house for a bit, that's all.
15:54But I finally, she gets to sit on the sofa all day, because she's the golden child.
16:00I'm sick of everyone, man.
16:10You know, on the plus side, you know, you could go to the doctor with this, and they're bound
16:43to give you some painkillers.
16:45Um, are you all right?
16:48No bones broken.
16:50I'm sorry I lost it.
16:51I was trying to teach Nugget about management.
16:54We've all just been worried about him, and I guess I was stressed, and I took it out on
16:57you, so I'm sorry.
16:59I'm glad you're OK.
17:00Thank you, Vinnie.
17:02What's the damage?
17:03Oh, just a strain, I think.
17:05Right.
17:05And I'd say you're well enough to get back to work.
17:08What?
17:08No, actually, she'll have to rest.
17:10No, it's OK.
17:10It's OK.
17:11It's all good.
17:12And make sure you don't leave the till unattended again.
17:17Black coffee, please.
17:21Hi, Sharon.
17:22Um, sorry, you're probably outselling yourself, aren't you?
17:25Um, just to let you know, everything's fine with the gym, or it will be once we've got
17:29all the paperwork sorted, and you send my love to Mum.
17:34Miss ya.
17:39Come for eating.
17:41That's how you cope with Ross, is it?
17:43Will you lay off him?
17:44You're supposed to be a ball breaker, Vic.
17:46Like Mum.
17:47Tough as anything.
17:48What are you doing with a loser who let his son beat you up?
17:51Sorry, I don't want some meathead who thinks with their fists.
17:55I need someone who understands me, helps me control my temper, builds me up, makes me
18:01feel good about myself.
18:02When everything is so bleak, I want someone who can make me laugh.
18:08And that's him, is it?
18:10I love him.
18:13Enough to marry him.
18:16Because I just see him buying a ring.
18:29You're hard to come in, Dee.
18:32Your land is at choir practice.
18:33Listen, ever since we got back from the CAV, I can't get through to you.
18:40You OK?
18:41My son was a monster, you heard that?
18:46Huh?
18:46The cat was just sticking up for her.
18:51What's the point of arranging a funeral?
18:54His own daughter won't even show up.
18:58Well, we'll keep looking for her.
18:59And we can reach out to Sophie.
19:01He has got two other kids in there.
19:03I don't know.
19:03I don't know.
19:04It's better if we don't make a fuss.
19:06I just...
19:07We call the whole thing off.
19:10Nobody gives a damn about me son.
19:13Hey, people give a damn about you.
19:19But I just...
19:21I can't do this on my own, you know?
19:23Well, you're not on your own, are you?
19:24I mean, we're here.
19:26And we can plan the funeral, can't we?
19:29Yeah, yeah, of course.
19:32Of course.
19:35Of course.
19:35Cheers.
19:36OK.
19:39Look, of course I want to help with Nigel.
19:41But between management and guests,
19:44we need to maintain some sort of distance.
19:46They are more than guests, and you know it.
19:48Yes, I do.
19:49But this is a boutique hotel at the bougie end of the market.
19:53Oh, and that's why you let Councillor Barker use it as a knocking shop, is it?
19:56Excuse me, I didn't have any choice in that, did I?
19:58But the point I'm trying to make about Nigel is he needs specialist care.
20:02He needs someone with a bit of kindness in their heart.
20:05Does that rule you out?
20:06I have kindness in my heart, thank you very much.
20:08And there's no need to be like that.
20:11Hmm.
20:15How was your first day?
20:17What do you know about Sookie Panessa?
20:21I suppose I'd class Sookie as a friend,
20:23but I wouldn't want to work for her.
20:24She's one tough lady.
20:29Well, she's not the only one.
20:33And he goes,
20:35I'm going to ask Vicky to marry me,
20:36and there ain't nothing you can do about her.
20:38I cannot believe he said those actual words.
20:42This is what you wanted, though, isn't it?
20:44The perfect man, happily ever after.
20:46Yeah, it is.
20:48Thank you for ruining the surprise.
20:50Yeah, OK, I'm sorry.
20:52I'm delighted for you.
20:54But this does mean you're going to have to stop having sex with Zach.
21:02There is nothing happening with me and Zach.
21:04Tell me it ain't my business, Vic, but don't lie to me.
21:07I saw you at the gym.
21:08Oh, just stop, all right?
21:10I'm not going there.
21:11I ain't judging, OK?
21:13If Bob the Builder don't set your heart on fire,
21:15go get the goods from Pretty Boy.
21:17That is not what I am doing.
21:21I will say it again.
21:23I love Ross.
21:24OK.
21:26Then you need to deal with it.
21:28Because secrets like this,
21:29they don't stay secret for very long, all right?
21:44Life that bad, is it?
21:46You know, just trying to get through the day.
21:48Doesn't sound like a lot of fun.
21:51No, it ain't.
21:52So, come and sit with us?
21:57Listen, I'm sorry if I think I'd just kill the mood.
21:59Now, we're out for a good time and no-one's going to stop there.
22:05Well, you know where we are?
22:08If you change your mind.
22:19Did you just turn her down?
22:21I just don't need the hassle, mate.
22:26Zap, mate, I know we ain't caught up in the water, so...
22:29maybe I'm out of the loop.
22:32That's a hassle to you, is it?
22:34Mate, spend the day in my shoes.
22:36Well, you don't know left from right, up from down.
22:39No, no, no, look, I'm not looking for sympathy.
22:42Yeah.
22:43I've made some bad decisions,
22:44and I'm going to have to live with that.
22:48Mate, I don't...
22:49I don't know what's going on.
22:52What you're feeling, but just nice.
22:54I'm only in time, yeah?
22:56Yeah.
22:57Yeah, maybe.
23:00No, it's not just her, it's just her.
23:02I can't even speak to my kids.
23:03I can't even speak to my kids right now without it kicking off.
23:07Listen, if it's an easier life out there, I'd take it all day long.
23:13Yeah.
23:14Just, mate, it's just complicated.
23:17I've sort of got this thing going on with someone.
23:21I don't know if it's going anywhere,
23:24or even if I want it to, do you...
23:25I just...
23:29Zap, mate, that sounds like a lot of stress for something that ain't life and death.
23:36See what I mean?
23:45Jeez, mate.
23:48Buddy, I've got this, yeah?
23:51Hey.
23:53Is this where the party's at?
23:55It is now.
23:56Yes, we are.
24:10What are you doing?
24:12Writing a room.
24:14Oh, you see, they shouldn't be making you work.
24:17Oh, I'm sorry.
24:21So, I think they owe you this at the very least.
24:25No, no, beep, beep, beep, beep.
24:26Sookie will be able to see you.
24:29Oh, hi, Sookie.
24:31He's just in.
24:32You're a stuck-up old cow,
24:34and you're so going to get what's coming to you.
24:39Go on, have some.
24:41It's good stuff.
24:42No, no, I shouldn't.
24:43Come on.
24:45Do you know what?
24:46Right.
24:48So you got injured at work.
24:51So we are going to sue the hell out of them.
24:56Oh, yeah.
24:58I've told you, Mark, I don't want to talk about it.
25:01I'm saying it like it is.
25:02You know what I'm saying, don't I?
25:03Why else would you mess around with someone like Zach?
25:06For your information, Zach has been my biggest support for all of this.
25:10Vicky, please tell me you're not catching feelings for him.
25:33Vicky!
25:33I made this.
25:34Mm, I did.
25:36It's shepherd's pie.
25:38Julie said you like it.
25:40Your wife, darling.
25:45I'm getting married.
25:46Yeah.
25:46Mm.
25:49Yes, she is.
25:50Oh, that's right.
25:52Julie's off out with some work friends, and we're going to watch her film.
25:57Where am I?
25:59You're at one of the most exclusive boutique hotels in London.
26:03Where am I?
26:04The Peacock Palace, darling.
26:05Where am I?
26:07Nigel, sweetheart, please, be cut out.
26:09Nigel, please don't.
26:10His tree's getting too hard.
26:11No!
26:12Nigel!
26:12Nigel.
26:14It's all right.
26:15It's all right.
26:16You're okay.
26:16Did he hurt you?
26:17No, honestly.
26:18Let me see.
26:18Let me see.
26:21It's fine, really.
26:42I think you are the most incredible woman I've ever met.
26:48And I love you with all of my heart.
26:52I want to make you happy.
26:54And I want to build a life for you that...
26:58that lasts forever.
27:01So...
27:05Vicky Fowler.
27:08You marry me.
27:10I love you.
27:23I can't lie to you anymore.
27:30I slept with someone else.
27:40Deep down in your...
