00:00I
00:30Oh, yeah, I can't be scared.
01:10All right, me dad's struggling.
01:11My mum's not a good patient, you know.
01:13I could come with you if you like.
01:14Oh, no, it's my mum.
01:16I'm with Vince, Doncaster.
01:18You don't like it.
01:20Trust me.
01:21Right, it's time for her favourite son to step up.
01:24She's only got one son, hasn't she?
01:25Yeah, I know.
01:26That's her joke.
01:30Oh, listen, I'll be back this evening.
01:33Try to go for tea?
01:34Yeah, OK.
01:35All right.
01:36I'll tell you to Doncaster next time.
01:37I would really like that.
01:38Yeah, I'll show you the bright lights.
01:40All right, see you later.
01:44Oh, um, I've only got that tenner that you left me.
01:48What, is that a problem? I'm back tonight.
01:52Oh, um...
01:53Yeah, OK.
01:55I'll give him my love.
01:56Yeah, all right.
01:57See you later.
02:01Er, I left a stack of them under the bar.
02:03We'll check because they're going to be in about half two today.
02:05Hi, Rad.
02:05Hi.
02:06Er, where's Cam?
02:08He's helping out reception.
02:10Right, um, can I have a word?
02:12Yeah.
02:13You all right?
02:14Yeah, yeah, fine.
02:17For what you did last week.
02:18No.
02:19And you've always been straight with me, haven't you?
02:22I'll trust you.
02:23Like me own family.
02:24Well, more than me own family sometimes.
02:29And, um...
02:31That's why I wanted you to know,
02:33if I do go to jail without passing go,
02:37I want to leave you in charge of the hotel.
02:41Er...
02:42What about Carl?
02:44And what about Ronnie?
02:45Oh, Ronnie's really busy with his own stuff,
02:47and Carl, well, you leave him to me, yeah?
02:51I mean, it might not happen,
02:53and touch wood, it doesn't,
02:53but if it does,
02:55you and me main man.
02:59I won't let you down.
03:03Yeah.
03:04No, thank you, though.
03:05Yeah, it was a long shot.
03:07Oh, actually, um,
03:09you don't, by any chance,
03:10have the number of a Bernard Bennett, do you?
03:11Him and me dad were mates at school.
03:15Bernard Bennett.
03:17Great.
03:18Great.
03:18Ben.
03:19Yep.
03:22Yeah.
03:23Okay.
03:24Yes, no, I'll ring him after six.
03:26Brilliant, thank you.
03:27Yeah, you're a star.
03:28Thanks.
03:30Yeah, I'm a pen bag.
03:31Aye, I've got a lead on me dad.
03:33Everyone's a detective.
03:35Mm-hmm.
03:35Oh, we need to get off to the hospital.
03:37Come on.
03:38Right, we're off, love.
03:39Oh, all right, er,
03:40give half of me love, yeah?
03:41Oh, we will.
03:42You're getting on well now, aren't you?
03:44Yeah, yeah.
03:45Well, don't be too good,
03:46you'll be doing me out of a job.
03:48I could never be as good as you.
03:49Oh, thanks.
03:50I'll see you later.
03:51See ya.
03:51See ya.
03:55See ya.
03:59So, you've told him?
04:00Yeah, he's the best place.
04:02Yeah, well, I just want it all sorted.
04:05Do you know, I've only got an hour for me lunch.
04:07Yeah, I've got to get back for Dorian.
04:09You know, I'm not sure this is a good idea, you know.
04:10Look, it's what Debbie wants,
04:12and I think it is a good idea.
04:13Yeah, yeah.
04:14Interventions can be very effective
04:16in helping people improve their mental health.
04:18Well, I'm not sure Kev's going to see it that way.
04:20I told you, he wouldn't be late.
04:21Well, I would have missed a free lunch.
04:24Did he say free?
04:25I never said free.
04:26Ah, she's kidding.
04:26I'd never kid about money.
04:28Surprise!
04:30What's this?
04:31An intervention.
04:32Sit down.
04:33I thought I was getting a free lunch.
04:34Truth is, we're worried about you, Kev.
04:38So it's an ambush?
04:39No, it's a we-care-about-Kevin-fest.
04:42Well, I don't need this.
04:43I'm all right.
04:44And even if I wasn't,
04:46I wouldn't turn to you.
04:47Look, for advice,
04:48stick your free meal.
04:49Oh, come on, Kev,
04:50just give us a chance, eh?
04:52You lied to me.
04:53Kev, it's an hour, that's all.
04:54It's a waste of time.
04:55Now, you, sit down.
04:57No.
04:59Now, listen.
05:00In a few days' time,
05:01I might find myself locked up
05:03in a two-by-two-foot prison cell,
05:04and I don't want to be sat there
05:05fretting about you.
05:07So, do me a favour.
05:08Pat your derriere
05:09and convince me
05:10why I shouldn't be worried.
05:16Hiya.
05:16Hiya, Bernard.
05:17It's me, Jodie.
05:20Yeah.
05:20Yeah.
05:21Dad's fine.
05:22No, actually, er...
05:24I was hoping you'd do me a favour.
05:26Do you remember my sister
05:29showing her by any chance?
05:31So you're feeling better?
05:33Yeah.
05:35And I should have texted.
05:37It wasn't big
05:38and it wasn't clever,
05:39but I just...
05:41I wanted to get away from everything.
05:43Okay.
05:45Well, how about
05:47me and you go to the pub later?
05:48You know, just the two of us?
05:51Quality time?
05:53What's this?
05:54Well, this is a brief encounter
05:56because my shift starts
05:57in five minutes
05:58and you should have been
05:58in the shop half an hour ago.
06:00Yep.
06:02I missed you.
06:04Okay, but you're right.
06:05Maybe we should, er...
06:07make time to reconnect.
06:08Yes.
06:09Yes, exactly that.
06:11The flat is largely empty
06:13most of the day.
06:14I shall be down here.
06:17Er, Bernie,
06:18this is Mr. Roper.
06:19He's going to be addressing
06:20the electrical issues
06:22we have upstairs.
06:23Mal, pleased to meet you.
06:25Bernie, and this is my husband,
06:27Devendra.
06:28Oh, hey.
06:28Oh, if you ever need an electrician,
06:31fast, efficient,
06:32and always discreet.
06:33Hmm, I think I'll, er,
06:34bear it in mind.
06:35Okay, okay, okay.
06:37Laters.
06:38Bye, darling.
06:39Let's get on.
06:46When I was in a wheelchair
06:47after the hit and run,
06:48I found it really difficult
06:50to ask for help.
06:50I thought this was supposed
06:52to be about me, not you.
06:53It is about you
06:54because you helped me,
06:56but now you have to let us
06:57help you.
06:58God, I had own duds.
06:59Mechanic.
07:00Part-time psychiatrist.
07:02Who knew?
07:03I know you're hurting, Kevin.
07:04Who says I'm hurting?
07:06Do you think I'm crying
07:07in my pillow all night?
07:09You don't know me.
07:10Oh, really?
07:11Look, I know how difficult
07:12it is for men
07:13to discuss their feelings.
07:16Tim found it very hard
07:17to share when he was going
07:19through his erectile dysfunction.
07:21Do I have to talk about this now?
07:22Er, Debbie is just trying
07:24to help.
07:25You know, we all are.
07:26Fully functional now,
07:27by the way.
07:31It's okay to be scared.
07:32Who says I'm scared?
07:35I'm fine.
07:36I don't know why you all
07:37think you can see
07:38into my head.
07:38You're not fine, Kev.
07:40I'm not fine either.
07:41And it's nothing
07:42to be ashamed of.
07:43You're quiet.
07:44Do you not want to contribute?
07:46I'm sorry for all the damage
07:48me and Carl have caused.
07:50For what it's worth,
07:51I've made a lot of mistakes
07:52in my life.
07:53No, I'm not going to argue
07:53with that one.
07:54And I know what I did
07:56had a massive effect on you.
07:59Well, I'm used to it.
08:02Married a junkie.
08:03Woman who cheated on me.
08:05Got pregnant.
08:06Sleeping with me brother.
08:07Par for the course.
08:08Kevin!
08:09It's fine, Sal.
08:10Honest.
08:10Look, have a go at me
08:11if it makes you feel better.
08:12I don't mind being
08:13your punch bag.
08:14I don't need this.
08:16Well, isn't this cosy?
08:18Did I miss the memo?
08:20What do you want?
08:21I want to know
08:21why our sisters
08:22stabbed me in the back.
08:26Hiya.
08:27Could I please have
08:28a bacon and sausage barm
08:29with a big dollop
08:30of brown sauce
08:31and a frothy coffee, please?
08:32Right, bacon and sausage barm,
08:34brown sauce,
08:35frothy coffee.
08:36Just the coffee for me, please.
08:39Not hungry.
08:39Joking, aren't you?
08:41I'll tell you're belly
08:41rumbling all the way over here.
08:42And I embrace the hunger.
08:44It keeps me sharp.
08:45I'm in training, aren't I?
08:46Oh, well.
08:47Put his coffee on my bill,
08:48will you?
08:50Thanks, Owen.
08:51We appreciate that.
08:53Oh, fiddlesticks.
08:54Only gone and left
08:55me wallet in the shop.
08:56Sorry, mate.
08:57I'll pay you back.
08:58Yeah, of course you will.
08:59Yeah, thank you.
09:00I'll be over here.
09:01Right, £6.50.
09:05Right.
09:06Now, I know a spark
09:08who can do the electrics
09:09for maple's rates.
09:10I can give him a call
09:11if you want.
09:11That's very kind of me, Bernie,
09:13but I'm sure Mal
09:14will do a good job.
09:15Yeah, well,
09:16I don't want you
09:16to be out of pocket,
09:17that's all.
09:19Well, actually,
09:20it's rather awkward.
09:22Turns out that
09:23the woman that I was
09:25corresponding with
09:26is Mal's wife.
09:29They've since split up.
09:31Yeah, yeah,
09:32that is awkward.
09:33Well, they did.
09:34And I can't help
09:36feeling that
09:36our connection
09:38contributed
09:39to the breakdown
09:40of that marriage.
09:42Anyway,
09:43I've checked
09:44his references.
09:44He's a fully
09:45qualified electrician.
09:51This has nothing
09:52to do with you.
09:53Can you check?
09:54I've still got a knife
09:54stuck in me bag.
09:55Don't be like this.
09:56After everything
09:57I've done for you,
09:58you put Ryan
09:58in charge of the hotel.
09:59Well, let me explain.
10:01Debbie's only
10:01trying to help you,
10:02you know.
10:03Do you think
10:03you need help, really?
10:05I don't know, Kev.
10:06Self-knowledge
10:07is the only way
10:08to make progress, Kevin.
10:10You even sent
10:10your B-movie henchman
10:11to pass on the message.
10:12You've not got
10:13the guts to do it yourself.
10:14I'm nobody's henchman.
10:15Can we talk
10:16about this later, please?
10:17You know what?
10:18Do what you want.
10:19I don't care.
10:20Oh, Carl!
10:21You know what?
10:22Leave him.
10:22He's not worth it.
10:23I thought this was
10:24a stupid idea
10:25but that's just
10:26cheered me up.
10:27Am I the only one
10:28round here
10:28who's trying to
10:29keep this family together?
10:30Don't bother.
10:31Not worth the effort.
10:57Oh, my.
10:59What?
11:01It's from Maureen Braithwaite.
11:03We did the funeral
11:04for her husband,
11:05Giles, innit?
11:07She's thanking me
11:07with this bottle of cognac.
11:09Ooh.
11:11Let me have a look.
11:14I can't accept it.
11:16Why not?
11:17Because it's too expensive.
11:19My dad was a connoisseur,
11:20loved his cognac,
11:21and no,
11:22this is too expensive.
11:24I'm going to give it back.
11:25Oh, George,
11:25you've obviously helped her
11:27through one of the most
11:27difficult times of her life.
11:29How do you think
11:29she's going to feel
11:30if you reject her kind gift?
11:32Yeah, but it doesn't feel right.
11:33Offended.
11:34That's how she's going to feel.
11:35I don't know.
11:35Maybe you want to offend a widow.
11:37No, of course I don't.
11:37Well, I suggest you
11:39get a little card out
11:40and you write her
11:40a thank you note.
11:42Yeah, maybe you're right.
11:43I know you're right.
11:45Eh?
11:46Maybe we'll crack it open now
11:47and have a little snifter.
11:49Well, it's mid-afternoon.
11:51For the sake of...
11:51No, this stuff,
11:52it's meant to be
11:54sipped
11:54in a warm glass,
11:56you know,
11:56after a nice meal.
11:57A digestive...
11:58Well, maybe then you
11:59could take me later on
12:00for a nice meal
12:01and then we can savour
12:02the little digestive.
12:05We'll see.
12:06After I thank Maureen,
12:18Dad?
12:19In here.
12:24You again?
12:26We need to talk.
12:28No, we don't.
12:29You need to leave us alone.
12:31We're okay.
12:33Aren't we?
12:35No.
12:36We're not.
12:38Eh?
12:40Dad,
12:40you're all over the place.
12:42There's no food in the fridge.
12:45The place is a tip.
12:47I'm walking on eggshells
12:48in case you kick off.
12:49I don't kick off.
12:50When do I kick off?
12:51I might let things slip
12:53a little bit,
12:53but that's okay now
12:54and you and me,
12:56we're okay.
12:59I want to go and live with Abbey
13:07for a bit.
13:08What?
13:10No!
13:11I said it was okay
13:12just for a few days.
13:14And I said no.
13:15What is this?
13:16Gang up on Kev Day?
13:18I'm going to go pack a bag, okay?
13:26Hello?
13:28Hello?
13:30Got a crotch pie in the oven.
13:32Ooh, that's nice.
13:33Didn't have to do that.
13:34No, no, I just,
13:35I wanted to be useful.
13:37I'll be ready in half an hour.
13:40Why don't you two
13:42chill for a bit
13:43and, erm,
13:45I'm just going to pop to the shop
13:46just get some peas.
13:47Yeah.
13:48Yeah.
13:49It's nice to come back
13:50to a home-cooked meal,
13:51isn't it?
13:52I won't be long.
13:52Yeah?
13:53I'm not complaining.
13:54No.
13:54Ooh, actually.
13:57I've got a minute.
14:02Oh, you're ringing Bernard.
14:05Calling Bernard.
14:07Honestly.
14:14Hello, hi.
14:15Hi, um, sorry to trouble you.
14:17Um, is this Bernard Bennett?
14:20Hi, yeah, it's, um,
14:22it's Shona Ramsey.
14:23You went to school with my dad.
14:24Doug?
14:27Yeah.
14:27Yeah.
14:28Well, the thing is,
14:29we kind of lost touch
14:30and I was just wondering
14:31if you knew where he was these days?
14:36Mm-hmm.
14:39Oh, okay.
14:41Um, well, I mean,
14:43do you know anybody
14:43who might be able to help?
14:46All right.
14:47Okay.
14:49Thanks.
14:49Bye.
14:50Bye now.
14:50Bye.
14:51Oh, look then.
14:52Oh.
14:53What did he say?
14:54Well, he said,
14:55apparently,
14:55they've not seen each other in years,
14:57which is weird
14:58because they were best mates.
15:01Well, people can lose touch.
15:04Oh, I know.
15:04I just really want to find me dad.
15:06I just don't know how.
15:10Are you sure you're okay with this?
15:12He said what he wanted.
15:13Just go.
15:17Maybe I should stay.
15:19Oh, no.
15:20No, you made your mind up.
15:21You go.
15:22Tell the truth.
15:23I don't want you here.
15:24I'm better off on my own.
15:25I can do what I want.
15:27I don't need anybody.
15:28Well, you don't mean that.
15:30Just go, will you?
15:31Why is no one listening to me?
15:33Go on, go.
15:34Both of you.
15:35Come on, kid.
15:45Ah, we meet again.
15:47Andy, right?
15:48Val.
15:49Sorry.
15:50Devendra.
15:51And, er...
15:52Bernadine.
15:52Bernadine.
15:53Er, can I get you a drink?
15:55Er, thank you,
15:56but we're kind of on a day,
15:57point a bit of quality time
15:58into our marriage.
15:59Yeah, of course.
16:01Sorry.
16:02You have a lovely evening.
16:04That's right.
16:04Certainly going to try.
16:07You've got a drink, then?
16:09Er, yes, please.
16:10Can we have a double scotch
16:12and a pint, please?
16:13Snake bite, please.
16:14Yes.
16:15Please.
16:17When you're ready.
16:20Yeah, it's just people
16:20change their minds,
16:22you know,
16:22and then when they change
16:23their minds,
16:24drinks get wasted.
16:26Yeah, I won't change my mind.
16:29All right.
16:30Cool.
16:33So, are we okay?
16:35Yeah.
16:36Because you were like
16:37a little standoff issue
16:38with Mr Mal there.
16:39Well, he's a tradesman
16:41doing a job for Roy.
16:42He's not been you best mate.
16:43But, honey,
16:44good manners cost an hour,
16:45as they say.
16:45Sorry, sorry.
16:46Shall I get him over here
16:47so you can have a drink with him?
16:48Honey, I am kidding.
16:50You're right.
16:51Tonight's about me and you.
16:52Okay, I'm sure Mr Mal
16:52can take care of himself.
16:55Cheers.
17:22Hiya.
17:22Oh, hi.
17:23Hey, that downstairs door
17:24was wide open, you know.
17:26I, um, that's me.
17:27I must have forgot.
17:29Ah.
17:29You all right?
17:30Yeah, fine.
17:31I was just wondering
17:32if you fancy popping down
17:33the pub with me and Chrissy.
17:35Oh, I'm okay.
17:37Theo's gone to see his mum and dad
17:39and they'll be back soon.
17:40Sure?
17:41I'm buying.
17:42Honestly, George,
17:42I'm, I'm fine.
17:43Right, okay.
17:44Well, I won't twist your armour.
17:46See you tomorrow.
17:47Ta-ra, mate.
17:49Bye, mate.
18:09I get a lovely meal
18:11and then I get to try
18:13some posh new cognac.
18:15What's cognac?
18:17It's brandy.
18:19All right.
18:21Back to, uh,
18:22two more when you're ready, please.
18:24Yeah, and I'm finished.
18:30I told you I wasn't interested.
18:32And I got the message
18:33loud and clear.
18:35But I need this job.
18:37I didn't know you were
18:38for Roy Cropper.
18:39I love my husband.
18:41I can see that.
18:42He's a lucky man.
18:44Don't say that.
18:46I'm sorry.
18:47Look,
18:48we had one
18:49really great night
18:50and it really helped me
18:52and I'll never forget that.
18:53And I promise
18:54I will stay
18:55out of your way.
18:56And as soon as I finish
18:57this job at the CAF,
18:58I'll be gone.
18:59Okay.
19:00Okay, thank you.
19:07Today's you.
19:09We look at perhaps
19:10one of us
19:11to get the precarious
19:13life cycles.
19:16The key maker...
19:42If you want round two, you'll have to come back tomorrow.
19:45I don't want another fight.
19:46Really?
19:48Because I thought you and I would care for working as some sort of tag team.
19:52Why'd you do it?
19:54Oh, the hotel.
19:57Well, number one, I think Ryan will do a brilliant job.
20:02And two, I didn't want to tie you down.
20:07What do you mean, tie me down?
20:09Well, you've not exactly got a good fan club round here at the moment, have you?
20:13And if I end up in prison, there'll be nothing for you to stay for.
20:18You can't trust me, you know.
20:20Can I?
20:21Haven't I already proven that?
20:24Who's been keeping your business going?
20:25Me.
20:26Ryan's done nothing.
20:27Ryan's been a good friend to me over the years.
20:30I trust him.
20:31I've known him a long time.
20:33I'm your brother.
20:33Look how we dealt with them robbers.
20:35Eh?
20:36I owe him.
20:37Do you think this is easy for me?
20:40No.
20:41No, of course not.
20:44I know it's hard for you right now and Ronnie told me what you're doing for Kev, but it's not
20:48your job to take care of us.
20:49Oh, yes, it is.
20:51It is my job.
20:55And I don't know how long I can keep doing it for, do I?
20:58How long have I got before I'm incarcerated?
21:02And all this family keep doing is shouting at each other and falling out.
21:06Hey, I'm not shouting now, am I?
21:07Well, I'm shouting because I'm terrified.
21:11I'm going to jail.
21:13You're not.
21:14Oh, yes, I am.
21:15I am and I know I am.
21:17And do you know what scares me the most?
21:20What?
21:22Being on me own, locked up in me own head.
21:25Away from everybody I love.
21:29And what if while I'm in them, I, um, what does everybody call it?
21:33Me condition, me illness.
21:34No, let's give it its full title, eh.
21:36Me vascular dementia.
21:37What when I'm in there, that gets worse?
21:41What if I forget who you are?
22:07What if I forget who you are?
22:10What you are?
22:13What if I forget who you are?
22:15What if I wear?
22:16What if I hate?
22:19What if I'm in there, that gets worse?
