00:03MUSIC
00:23It's been like that since I know, hasn't it?
00:24Oh, yeah, it has.
00:26Oh, I've never always been excited, bless him.
00:28I know, I can't wait to see what he's done with the place.
00:31Yeah, I hope he's chose somewhere bright.
00:32Cheer the place up a bit.
00:33I said to Tyrone this morning,
00:35I wouldn't actually mind our front room having a nice fresh liquor pane.
00:38Oh, yeah, what did he say?
00:39Er, what he did was he cocked a deafen and started talking about guttering,
00:42at which point I switched off, so...
00:44Oh, well played, sorry.
00:45Oh, not the plane.
00:46Watch out, you're going to bump into something.
00:52Summer?
00:56Can I have a word?
01:00Can you see, Chas?
01:02Oh, I've got my eyes.
01:02Oh, yeah.
01:03Ta-da!
01:08Well, what do you think?
01:11Well, erm, yeah, it's definitely...
01:13It's fresher.
01:14Fresh?
01:15Yeah.
01:16Yeah, I'm not...
01:17I mean, I like it.
01:20It's...
01:20It's nice, it's clean-looking.
01:22Yeah, it's just...
01:24It kind of looks the same as it did before.
01:26Yeah.
01:27Yeah, apart from the low-energy lighting and the wall insulation.
01:31Which, unfortunately, you can't see.
01:33But I did get a load of colour charts, but he wasn't having any of it.
01:37On the contrary.
01:38Oh, no, yep.
01:39Sorry, he did go three shades darker than it was before,
01:42but I did have to do some pecking of his head.
01:45Look, personally, after all that effort,
01:47would have wanted to see a bit of a difference.
01:49But, Roy, hey-ho, if you're happy.
01:51I am.
01:52Especially after finding this wonderful picture here.
01:55That was there before, wasn't it?
01:57No, no.
01:58It's predecessor was the LMS Princess Coronation Class 6229 Duchess of Hamilton.
02:06That is the mallard.
02:10Order of the steam engine speed record.
02:13Oh, God.
02:14I think it looks the same to me, but...
02:17Roy, can't tell you how good it is to have you open again.
02:20Oh, it's good to be open.
02:22Hmm.
02:22He was up at the crack of dawn, he was.
02:23He was that excited.
02:25Right, Carla's got me doing a cake order to celebrate,
02:27but, I mean, I can come back.
02:28No need.
02:30Hey, did you not fancy going for blue or something a little bit bright?
02:32Check it out, come on.
02:37It's gonna be weird moving out.
02:39We've gotten used to our little set-up.
02:41The charts, the morning coffee.
02:44Me too.
02:46Are you sure you're gonna be okay?
02:49There's one thing that I've come to depend on in this life.
02:52No, two things.
02:53There's one, having to fend for yourself.
02:56And the second,
02:57it's having people close to you leave.
03:01I'll be all right.
03:03Where will you go?
03:05Oh, I don't know.
03:07Well, Bertie's back today.
03:09But, er,
03:11would you say you and me push the boat out,
03:12go over to Roy's,
03:13since it's the grand reopening?
03:15Yeah.
03:16Yeah, I'd like that.
03:17Okay, five minutes.
03:18All right.
03:30So, do they have customers and everything?
03:32Oh, yeah, yeah.
03:33It was like the place had never closed.
03:34Oh.
03:35And word will get round, won't it?
03:36Yeah.
03:37I'll pop my head in later.
03:38It'll seem odd, though,
03:39the whole place having a facelift.
03:41Er, more like a face wipe,
03:43if I'm honest.
03:43Oh, this is just an eating competition,
03:45or something to,
03:46you know,
03:47relapse the place.
03:48But, right, it seemed keen.
03:49Er, so you thought you'd have your own,
03:50did you?
03:52Sarah, you want to get stuck
03:53into these full Kurtz Tars
03:54oozing cream and custard?
03:56Oh.
03:57Oh, that's an image.
03:58It's going to stay with me.
03:59I'm all right.
04:00I'm not going to be thanks.
04:00Oh, it's not about hunger,
04:01this, though, is it?
04:02It's more about...
04:03Greed?
04:03No, indulgence,
04:05I was going to say.
04:05Mm.
04:06Oh, that's a bit naughty, isn't it?
04:08Sarah.
04:10Oh, sorry.
04:10I was just going to ask,
04:12which order would you like us
04:14to start on?
04:14Would you like us to start on
04:15the Carmichael one
04:16or the ones for Jackson's?
04:18Erm...
04:18Carmichael, probably, yeah.
04:20Just because he can be a
04:20strappy so-and-so, you know?
04:22Yeah, yeah, cool.
04:23Carmichael's.
04:23Yeah.
04:24Okey-dokey.
04:27Is she OK, do you think?
04:28No, you know.
04:30I think since the attack,
04:31she's lost a bit of confidence.
04:34And Lisa said that Kit's
04:35gone to Wales on a secondment, so...
04:37Oh, oh.
04:38Keep an eye on her.
04:40Yeah.
04:40Yeah.
04:45Shouldn't the spuds be going in?
04:47They're fine.
04:48I know, but you want them
04:48nice and crispy, babe.
04:50They'll be crispy.
04:51I mean, I know the meat's important,
04:52but I'm sorry.
04:54Hobber-do-hobber-do.
04:55Those spuds you do.
04:57Star of the show for me.
04:59It is getting on for 12.
05:01Do you want to make this dinner?
05:02No, not unless you want food poisoning.
05:04All right.
05:05Well, shut up.
05:05It'll be fabulous.
05:06Hi!
05:07Hi.
05:07Surprise!
05:08What are you doing?
05:09Well, I just thought we'd have a nice family meal,
05:11you know?
05:12Celebrate your test results.
05:15Not that much to shout about recently,
05:16have we?
05:17Yeah, well, believe me,
05:18there's no one more relieved than me.
05:20Me?
05:20Aw, fair play to you, son.
05:22I mean, how snide would that have been?
05:23Some bloke you don't even know gives you a condition
05:25that could kill, you know, thank you.
05:27Yeah, well, thank our lucky stars that we're all in the clear,
05:29because believe me, we've got other things to worry about.
05:32The police have just phoned.
05:33What about?
05:34Now, you're not going to believe this, babe,
05:35but she's been released.
05:37Megan?
05:37She can't have been.
05:38They just told me.
05:39But why?
05:40She appealed and they agreed to let her out on bail.
05:43Are you joking me?
05:44I know, I know.
05:45It just never stops, does it?
05:48So did you not fancy, I don't know,
05:52an actual colour?
05:54Well, unless I'm very much mistaken,
05:56this is a colour.
05:58Yeah, but I mean, like, you know, a different one.
06:01Anyway, it's really good to have your back, Roy.
06:04You're very kind.
06:05And I suppose if it ain't broke...
06:07Yeah, yeah, indeed.
06:08And the same painting.
06:10No, actually...
06:11Er, it's the mallard.
06:12The other one was the Duchess of Hamilton, actually.
06:15Very similar, though, right?
06:16Hey.
06:17You've obviously upset someone, haven't you?
06:19Sorry.
06:20Trains and planes are never my strong point.
06:22No.
06:22I meant the stuff online.
06:24What?
06:25You've not seen it?
06:27What is it?
06:29Er, see for yourself.
06:38Who's Truth Teller?
06:39Whoever they are,
06:40they seem to start dragging you through the dirt.
06:42They're even saying that I knew about Megan and Will.
06:44Why would I stay quiet about that?
06:46I wouldn't.
06:46Oh, you've read the stuff about Summer and now you supposedly groomed her.
06:49You even mentioned Max.
06:51Has she read it?
06:52Summer?
06:52I don't know.
06:53She was meant to pop in, but she hasn't.
06:55It's a cesspit.
06:56Just ignore it.
06:57All of it.
06:57How am I supposed to ignore it?
06:58This could affect me going back to work.
07:00Er, pardon my interjection,
07:02but I would urge you not to respond to any of those posts.
07:06Er, once you do, they'll feel they've triumphed.
07:09Er, and one comment will bring hundreds in return.
07:12Er, it's a vile black hole.
07:19On a positive, at least they've made it so she can't actually see you, Will.
07:27Listen, love, there's nothing we can do about her.
07:30But what we can do is make sure that Will feels loved and protected.
07:34Like he's got his family back.
07:36I mean, this meal couldn't have come at a time.
07:39Yeah, I suppose.
07:40Guys, if you've finished, you fancy lending a hand?
07:42I'll help if you like.
07:45What are you doing here?
07:46I was invited.
07:48Dad, you had a heart scare with this myotonic thing.
07:50Sort of puts everything else in perspective, no?
07:53He's right.
07:55I was wondering if we could have a word about the flat.
07:57You've, er, probably heard that Summer's off to the States,
08:00and to be honest, I'm not that keen to move in,
08:02so, er, can you just give me a call when you get this?
08:05Thanks.
08:09I, er, thought we might have lunch together.
08:13Er, you're all right.
08:15Please, Todd.
08:17We need to talk.
08:19I'm not sure there's much to say, George.
08:22I hate to think that you and Summer thought I was snooping through her things.
08:26You know I'm not that person.
08:27You actually think that's the worst of it?
08:29You accused her of murder.
08:30I mean, this is Summer we're talking about.
08:32She said she wanted Theo dead.
08:34Then she went and burned that journal thing.
08:37Why?
08:39Don't tell me you've not asked yourself the same question.
08:41Have you not asked yourself why Christina took so long to pick me up on the night he died?
08:46Well, she said she was stuck in traffic.
08:49Anyway, this is not about Christina.
08:52Todd, what did you expect us to do?
08:54Burning that journal thing?
08:56Well, it was suspicious, to say the least.
08:59All we wanted was to, well, to find out the truth of what happened that night.
09:05Surely you want that too?
09:14And just to be clear, this is a voluntary interview under caution, OK?
09:21So, here's the photograph taken at the wedding.
09:23Can you confirm that's you?
09:26Is that a yes?
09:28Er, yes.
09:30OK.
09:33And here is a photograph of a brooch found in Theo's flat.
09:40Now, this is a blow-up of the wedding photo.
09:43And as you can see, the brooch found in Theo's flat is the same one that you're wearing.
09:47So what I'd like to know is, how did that brooch get from your dress to the floor of Theo's
09:52flat?
09:55I don't know.
09:59No, I really don't know.
10:01Maybe it came off in the street after I left Underworld.
10:06And Theo just happened to find it.
10:08I don't know.
10:09Yes.
10:12I promise I'm telling the truth.
10:18Can I go home now, please?
10:22Well, this all looks wonderful.
10:25And I made cauliflower cheese.
10:27My favourite.
10:28Bless you.
10:32I was relieved to hear about your test results.
10:35And pleased for you boys as well, of course.
10:39Well, it's OK, everyone.
10:41I must say you're looking a lot happier than the last time I saw you.
10:45Thanks to that wretched woman being behind bars, no doubt.
10:51What?
10:54This all looks amazing, aren't they?
10:57Dad?
11:03You should tell him.
11:07Megan's out.
11:08She's been granted bail.
11:11It's going to be all right, son.
11:12Sweet Ash, not allowed anywhere near you.
11:14I knew this would happen.
11:16Listen to me.
11:17You are in control of what happens to you, not her.
11:21She cannot touch you, either in or out of prison.
11:24But if she tries, she'll have to go through me.
11:27OK?
11:32So, come on, love.
11:33What's for poor Din?
11:34Because you look after your boys, right, ma'am?
11:36Dad, can we just...
11:37And who gave you permission to invite her to eat under my roof?
11:40Your roof?
11:41She's your mum.
11:42Oh, yeah.
11:43Yeah, yeah.
11:43Ma of the year, aren't you, Maggie?
11:45Yeah?
11:46Did everything for us after my dad died.
11:50After she killed him.
11:52Ben!
11:52That's who your nan is, boys.
12:12Don't listen to him.
12:14Oh, so I'm lying, am I?
12:15He fell down the stairs.
12:18You've told yourself that lie for so long,
12:20you've almost convinced yourself.
12:21The truth is, he fell down the stairs because she pushed him.
12:24That's not true, is it, nan?
12:25It was a terrible accident.
12:27Oh, you are good.
12:29Certainly had me fooled for 30-odd years.
12:32We were at the top of the stairs.
12:33We were round.
12:34I don't have to listen to this.
12:35Sit down.
12:36Ben?
12:38I need a drink.
12:44Let's go after me.
12:45Is it true?
12:47Is it true?
12:50Do you think it is?
12:52No.
12:52She'd have to cover it up.
12:54What?
12:54Why?
12:54She's not done something like that in the past?
12:57She's definitely capable.
12:59I know it.
13:01I can't believe it's gone viral.
13:03Just put your phone away, will you?
13:05They'll still be posting.
13:06Yeah, but you won't be driving yourself mad reading it all.
13:09It's just rubbish.
13:11Well?
13:12I'll stick the kettle on.
13:15Maybe let me get both feet through the front door?
13:18Have you read them?
13:19Yeah.
13:20Only started this morning.
13:21Yeah.
13:21Listen to this.
13:22Just switch it off, will you?
13:23I have to hold him.
13:24I'm being serious.
13:25Switch it off.
13:26Okay, fine.
13:27What can I do?
13:28Legally, not much.
13:30Great.
13:30Really glad I waited for you to get both feet through the door.
13:32Without knowing who's behind the account, I don't suppose you have any ideas.
13:36What, a list of people that hate me enough to want to ruin my life?
13:39Megan?
13:41She would be top of the list if she wasn't in prison.
13:44Um.
13:45What?
13:47I should have messaged that.
13:48We appealed her remand.
13:50She's out.
13:50I'm sorry.
13:52So do you think it could be her then?
13:57Yeah, absolutely.
13:59Absolutely.
14:00No problem.
14:00I will call you with that tomorrow.
14:02Okay, then.
14:03Bye-bye.
14:04No, where's that?
14:05Yeah.
14:05Of course.
14:05Was that Thomson's on the phone?
14:07Yeah, this guy's going to be hugely high maintenance, but it's a huge contract, so.
14:13Actually, that's what I wanted to have a word with you about.
14:16So the thing is, and this is in no way a criticism, I want you to know that, but the
14:21thing is, is, since the assault, Sarah, I think you've been struggling.
14:25And, well, you've been jumpy, and I wondered.
14:28I'm fine.
14:29Okay, just hear me out.
14:30But I don't want to land you with what could be a huge potential headache when you need to get
14:35your head sorted out, which is why I wondered if Michael...
14:39Michael?
14:39Michael.
14:40Michael, just for one contract.
14:42You know he's good with his boyish charm stuff, and that way you don't need to stress about it.
14:46No, Carla, Carla, don't.
14:48Please, like, either you think I'm up to the job, or you don't.
14:51All right, what happened, happened, and I don't need to be treated with kid gloves, and I certainly don't need
14:56Michael doing me work for me.
14:58Er, should I come back?
15:00Yes.
15:03I won't let you down.
15:08I said I'd put my head in round the brawler, so...
15:21Thanks for coming in.
15:22Everything all right?
15:23I really do just want to help.
15:25What's going on?
15:26Nothing.
15:27I just needed to answer a few questions.
15:29About what?
15:29About Theo?
15:30It's routine questioning.
15:31If it's routine, then what's the point?
15:33I mean, it's supposed to be a murder investigation.
15:35Shouldn't you be actually trying to find out who did it?
15:38Todd, it's okay.
15:38Look, I get you frustrated, but believe me, we're making every effort into making sure that we...
15:43What, by forcing an innocent girl to...
15:44No one was forced to do anything.
15:46Are you that devoid of ideas that you...
15:48Is that right?
15:51I'm just going to go and see Roy.
15:53Do you want to enjoy me five minutes?
15:55Yeah.
15:56Yeah.
15:58Are you all right?
15:59What was that about?
16:00The last thing I need is you kicking off like some demented head case.
16:10So much for quality family time.
16:13She's no longer family.
16:16She should never have been invited.
16:17Oh, babe.
16:19How's Will?
16:21Well, he's not great.
16:23First he's got to deal with Megan being out,
16:25and then he's got to deal with the fact his dad thinks his nan's a killer.
16:28That was a fun afternoon.
16:29They had a right to know.
16:31Maybe.
16:33But there's a time and a place, love.
16:37Look, I know you're struggling to get your head round all this,
16:40and if I was in your shoes, I'd want to punish Maggie and all.
16:43But you can't wallow in all this.
16:45Wallow?
16:46Yes, wallow.
16:48We need to be there for him.
16:50You've got to support him.
16:52No, sweetheart, don't you start telling me I'd look after my son.
16:57Right, OK.
17:00But listen,
17:01when you've finished feeling sorry for yourself,
17:05maybe you could go and have a word with your son.
17:07Mm.
17:09Because right now, he's little lads all over the place.
17:13You should have called. I'd have come with you.
17:15Look, to be honest, I don't think you kicking off in a police station
17:18would have done either of us any favours.
17:20No, sorry.
17:21Will you stop saying sorry?
17:26All right?
17:27Well, someone's just got back from a grill-in at the carp shop.
17:30No.
17:31Really?
17:33Oh, I hope you don't think that I said something about...
17:37well, about your journal.
17:39And can I just say again,
17:41I'm so sorry if you thought I was snooping in your stuff.
17:44No, it's fine.
17:46What did Lisa actually say was the reason for taking you in?
17:51Um, they just wanted to ask about my brooch.
17:55Brooch?
17:56Yeah, I was wearing it to the wedding.
17:59I... yeah, another one.
18:01Um, but they found it in your flat.
18:06And they wanted to know how I got there.
18:08Well, yeah.
18:10I mean, I can only imagine that it fell off
18:14and Theo found it and took it home.
18:19And is that what you told the police?
18:21Yeah.
18:23And that I had nothing to do with his murder.
18:29So, you definitely didn't go round to their flat that night?
18:33No.
18:35And when I say that I had nothing to do with his death,
18:38I expect to be believed.
18:49I thought maybe with it being the reopening,
18:51you might not have time for chess.
18:53Oh, I always make time for the important things in life.
18:57And that includes you.
18:59And you're the one person I can trust, right?
19:05The board's over there.
19:06You wouldn't mind doing the honours?
19:09The police looks great, by the way.
19:11Ah.
19:12The mallard, right?
19:14Indeed.
19:18Look, I mean, I'm not sticking up for him around, okay?
19:21It's just that...
19:22Well, Todd, he's kind of been through the ringer,
19:24hasn't he, lately?
19:25What, with Billy and now Theo?
19:27Yeah, I know.
19:28So, you know, like, cod psychology?
19:30Jay, what with you taking Summer in for questioning and all that,
19:34he's probably terrified of losing somebody else.
19:36You've questioned Summer?
19:37What about Theo?
19:39Nina.
19:40This isn't your conversation.
19:42That's ridiculous, you know that.
19:43Nina.
19:48You don't really think that Summer's a suspect, do you?
19:54Do you need anything else from the shop, George?
19:56Apart from milk?
19:57Back at the biscuits, wouldn't go amiss.
20:00Summer?
20:02Summer?
20:04Oh, erm, no, nothing, thanks.
20:07Right, back in the jeff.
20:19Here you go.
20:21Ah, thanks.
20:24So that must have been quite scary.
20:28Being called in for questioning.
20:31Well, it wasn't exactly questioning.
20:33Or just a...
20:35casual chat.
20:38And did she ask if you saw Theo the night you died?
20:43I didn't.
20:46Summer,
20:49I want you to really think about it.
20:53I don't need to think about it.
20:55I didn't see him.
20:58Except that's not quite true, is it?
21:04I saw you.
21:06On the street.
21:09Running from the direction of their flat.
21:16Please, just talk to me.
21:18I only want to help.
21:18Why are you doing this?
21:21Sweetheart.
21:23The truth will come out.
