00:28We're closed.
00:30Delivery!
00:31Wait, hang on.
00:35I've got a delivery.
00:36All right.
00:37Vic Windsor, he placed an order. Is he around?
00:43I'd like to welcome everyone to the first in your conference of 1999.
00:50As long as I'm in welcoming mood,
00:52let's hear it for our latest family member, Tinkerbellding.
00:56Yay!
00:57Shh, shh, shh!
01:00I'd also like to welcome back into the fold, Marlon.
01:04May you be proud to call yourself a dingle.
01:07Thanks. Thanks.
01:08No bother.
01:09And now, to the main reason why I asked us all here.
01:14Zach, I thought we'd agreed about this.
01:16It's all right, look.
01:19These filthy things will not be smoked around my beautiful baby girl.
01:25Do you understand?
01:32You see, we're all going to have to make changes.
01:35Melanie's looking after, and we're all going to have to pull our weight.
01:39Aye, aye. Here we go.
01:40What's that supposed to mean?
01:42Well, Dad, every time you use the word we, it always ends up being everybody except you.
01:48Oh, no.
01:49I told you, I am the one that's earning, so if you want me to stay at home, you are
01:53going to have to get out there and match my take-home pay.
01:56Lisa, my sweetheart, you are quite wrong.
02:00I am the one who's staying at home.
02:02No.
02:03I am the one who's going to look after our child.
02:07All I ask is that you support me in me task.
02:12Because I'm going to be your househusband.
02:16A new man, no less.
02:2012 Lieb, 75s.
02:2212 or 70 shards, 75s.
02:25Hop, one time, six and a half.
02:26Hang on a minute, hang on.
02:28Lieb, where's that?
02:29Third from the bottom.
02:31Hiya.
02:32Everything all right?
02:34Fine.
02:35Why?
02:35No reason.
02:36I was just...
02:37Did you get the hock?
02:39Morning.
02:40I didn't realise you was open.
02:42Oh, thank goodness you are, though, because I'm desperate for some tea bag.
02:46The hock?
02:46Look, I really don't need this right now.
02:49Make yourself useful.
02:50I'm going to have a bath.
02:52Ah, look, give us a minute.
02:54And I'll sort it out, OK?
02:56What was it you wanted, Betty?
02:57Only I don't think Viv is opening today.
02:59Oh, right.
03:01Well.
03:01Tea bags?
03:04Come on in.
03:05Down off.
03:08Get a drink, some Paddy.
03:10One for Kim.
03:11A G&T for Kim.
03:14Can I join you?
03:16You'll be the only one round here who wants to.
03:18Paddy's getting the drinks in.
03:20Thanks.
03:22So, how are things?
03:25I could lie and say fine, or I could tell the truth and risk you sitting somewhere else.
03:29Try me.
03:30Oh, it's nothing, really.
03:32I just want to get this court case over with.
03:34As long as there's a question mark over my involvement with Cathy's accident, people are giving me a severely wide
03:39berth.
03:40Not everyone.
03:42You are in the minority, though, eh?
03:44Just a few more weeks and everything will be back to normal.
03:47I hope so.
03:49Is Mandy not here yet?
03:51I told you.
03:52She found her earlier and said there's a meeting or something at her house.
03:55Oh, that'll be a dingle conference.
03:56Yeah, that's what she said.
03:58Yeah, well, what with baby Belle and Marlon's back in the fold now, Zach will be putting on his head
04:01of the family act and laying down the law.
04:04All right.
04:05It's not going to be too late.
04:07Doesn't sound like you miss it.
04:09What, Zach acting like Genghis Khan?
04:11Oh, thank you very much.
04:11That's the side of not seeing Mandy any more that I am very, very happy with.
04:15Is that the only good thing?
04:18Well, seeing and going out with your mates again, that's good fun.
04:21And Mandy's lovely and she's cracking laugh and that, but if you go out with a dingle, you go out
04:26with your family, don't you?
04:27I hate it when people get into a couple and forget about their mates.
04:30No, that's not going to happen again because friends are far more important than a kiss and a cuddle.
04:34I'm with you on that one.
04:35Well, my solicitor's very confident, which I'm happy about, because I'm a bag of nerves, even though I'm innocent.
04:41Should you be talking to a material witness?
04:44She's not.
04:44She's talking to her stepdaughter.
04:46Now go away.
04:47Well, not before I bought Kim a drink.
04:50Could be my last chance to be generous.
04:52Except a Christmas card when she's in prison.
04:56I don't need your generosity or your snide comments.
05:00Thanks for the chat, Zoe.
05:02Maybe I'll see you later.
05:07Something I said.
05:09Not you, Paddy, no.
05:10What about a drink?
05:12I love it.
05:13Get rid of the bad taste.
05:14You're such a saint, Zoe.
05:17Go on, Laura, sit down.
05:18I'll get us around him.
05:21Thanks.
05:23Seems such a cruel thing to do to one so cute, isn't it?
05:26What?
05:27Making Uncle Zach a mother.
05:29He won't last a day.
05:31You going down, village?
05:32Hmm.
05:32I want me.
05:33I've got to ask Cathy for some time off.
05:35I need some time to get Lynn back.
05:36She's not going to give you time off for that.
05:38Don't worry.
05:39I'll come up with some brilliant excuse.
05:44You sure you wanted this cut and dry?
05:46I thought that was what you wanted.
05:48One of us to stay at home and look after it burned here in the day, and the other wants
05:51to bring home the daughter of me.
05:52Well, I'm happy, but...
05:54Worried, too.
05:55No, not worried.
05:57Concerned.
05:58Yeah, well, you can take your concern and your worries and you can stuff them.
06:01Because I'm her dad, and I'm more than capable of taking care of her.
06:05Eh, you're all man, you.
06:07See you later.
06:16What?
06:17Are you off your trolley or what?
06:19Why?
06:21Dad, have you any idea what you've just let yourself in for?
06:24Looking after a baby?
06:27Listen to that.
06:33That golden silence is what I'm setting myself up for.
06:38Women have been conning us for years.
06:42Standing home with the kids.
06:43Standing home with the chelion for each other, more like.
06:47Lisa's just given me licence to never have to work again.
06:51Hey!
06:55So, what are you up to then?
06:57If I'm opening up shop tomorrow, I'll have to go to the cash and carry.
07:00Right.
07:01You got time to come with me?
07:03Of course.
07:05Only I really can't face driving that thing.
07:15Hey, Tisha.
07:16Can I bite and laugh a lager when you've got a minute?
07:18I won't be a sec.
07:20So, what are you up to tonight?
07:23I don't know.
07:24Er, why?
07:26I prevent you going blind from boredom.
07:28What do you mean?
07:29I hate waiting around in between shifts.
07:31Grandad's really sweet and everything,
07:33but his idea of excitement is getting the conundrum right on counter.
07:36Why don't you come out with us?
07:37Where to?
07:38We're going to shoot each other all night long.
07:41Or after laser blast.
07:42Yeah, I used to play at Lowe's,
07:44but Rachel there, I reckon she can ambush me.
07:47I'm very cunning, you know.
07:48No, you want to be with the tanner, aren't you?
07:50Oh, such high stakes, eh?
07:51You kids today know how to live it up, don't you?
07:55So, what do you reckon, then?
07:57The beat's going blind with boredom.
08:00Yeah, I'm up for that.
08:01Excellent.
08:02Cool.
08:03I haven't thought what to do with the car yet.
08:07Give it to Scott.
08:08Yeah, I suppose.
08:10But what about Kelly?
08:11She is Vic's daughter.
08:13And maybe Scott won't think it's cool enough.
08:16Vic loved this car.
08:24I don't suppose there'll be any argument over his music collection.
08:30I don't miss him, Terry.
08:32Not like I'm supposed to.
08:34I mean, I miss him not being there for the delivery.
08:38Going to the cash and carry.
08:40I miss the partnership not being in his team, but...
08:44Not him.
08:45Not Vic.
08:48You will.
08:49I don't think I'll ever miss him as much as I missed you when we split up.
08:53Don't.
08:55Last night,
08:57I cried myself to sleep.
08:58Not because of Vic.
09:02But because I think I'm such a terrible person.
09:07Grief affects everybody differently.
09:10It'll get better.
09:14If you really want to help,
09:17then I think we could help each other.
09:19How?
09:19Well, you hate your job and I need help in the shop.
09:23Perfect solution.
09:25Oh, I don't know.
09:26It would come with a full wage.
09:28And you could stay with us.
09:30Get you out of Betty's.
09:34How about it?
09:36Come and work at the post office.
09:56Hi.
09:57Have you seen Chris?
09:58I told him I'd be in for lunch.
09:59Er, well, he was.
10:00He's gone back to Home Farm.
10:01Oh.
10:02Can I help?
10:02No, it's nothing.
10:04I just fancied a break.
10:06Well, would you like to join us?
10:07Yeah, thanks.
10:09Actually, I'm glad you're here.
10:11I've been meaning to help a word.
10:13Oh, really?
10:14I know how brilliant you've been helping with Chris's new business.
10:17It's been exciting.
10:17I haven't seen Chris as full of energy in ages.
10:20I just wanted to say thank you.
10:22You've been a really good friend, too.
10:24Thanks.
10:26There you go.
10:28Well, you'd probably know.
10:29Well, the new owner of Home Farm, what's her name?
10:32Still there, isn't it?
10:33Weren't she moving in?
10:35How should I know?
10:37Well, I thought you were...
10:38Well, I really don't know what I thought you were.
10:40But we had an arrangement.
10:42I acted as her agent.
10:44None of your business has she'd been in touch or not.
10:47Oh!
10:53I just can't figure it out.
10:54Either she knows Chris wants her back and she's happy about that prospect.
10:57Oh, they had a very shaky marriage.
10:59You can't think that she'd want to rush back in.
11:01Or else she hasn't got the foggiest.
11:02In which case, she must be very dim.
11:04I guess he's not dim.
11:06Well, not really.
11:07She might be a pretty little thing.
11:09But Chris needs a challenge.
11:11He can't keep playing these silly games.
11:12He needs a future.
11:14And a future with a woman who's his intellectual equal.
11:17Do you really think that Chris wants to get back with Cathy?
11:20Well, he's going to need somewhere to live.
11:22Home Farm's been sold.
11:23Cathy wouldn't see him out in the street.
11:25Oh, none of us would.
11:26I think moving back with Cathy would be a terrible step backwards.
11:29Hmm, he'd be all right.
11:31In which case, one of us should tell him.
11:34What would I say?
11:36Pretty much everything you've just told me.
11:40Come on, plastic princess.
11:42You can do it.
11:44Quiet, Belsh.
11:45I can't hear.
11:47Go on, beauty.
11:48Go on.
11:52Donkey.
11:59Ooh.
12:01Ah.
12:01Ooh.
12:08That's it.
12:10I've been thinking about what you said.
12:12I could hear your brain ticking over.
12:14Well, I'll only be next door at Betty's.
12:16And if you need any help at all...
12:18But?
12:19But I don't think it'd work any other way.
12:22What wouldn't?
12:23Us.
12:24I mean, we tried it before.
12:27Shouldn't put ourselves through that again.
12:28Are you under the impression that I want us to get back together?
12:32No.
12:34Well, don't you?
12:35I've got a house full of teenagers, Terry.
12:37What I need is a grown-up, a sensible grown-up, to help me in the shop.
12:41You would get a wage, somewhere to sleep and absolutely nothing else.
12:44That's my offer.
12:48It's just that you said...
12:49I said what?
12:51Well, about us being a good team.
12:53You're missing me.
12:54I've just buried my husband, you insensitive idiot.
12:58It's all right.
12:59I can manage this lot.
13:00Thanks for your help.
13:01Are you sure?
13:02Yeah.
13:05Terry.
13:05Terry, think about the job.
13:08It would be a good thing for both of us.
13:17Now, now, sweet baby bell.
13:24Now, Lisa's back.
13:26Now, I really need you to stop crying.
13:30Please.
13:39Come on, love.
13:41Mummy's coming.
13:44Oh, is it that time already?
13:55I finished a bit early, so I thought I'd come back and help you.
13:59Help?
14:00Help with what?
14:02With Belle.
14:04Well, there's little Angel.
14:06Oh, we've been absolutely fine.
14:09Haven't we, Princess?
14:14Cheers, Mum.
14:15That smells great.
14:16You're welcome.
14:17Ta.
14:18When did you tell Zoe you were going back to the vets?
14:21I didn't.
14:22She said I should take as long as I need.
14:24Because I've decided to open up the shop tomorrow.
14:27I had hoped to open up today, but I got no help from you two whatsoever.
14:31Okay, I'll out tomorrow.
14:33And that goes for you as well.
14:35We've had a very easy ride since you got out of the army.
14:37It's time to muck in.
14:38I said I would.
14:41I've also asked Terry to work here.
14:44Terry.
14:45I'm not doing my shit with him.
14:47Okay.
14:48But I expect you to be polite to him, especially if he decides to move in.
14:53Move in?
14:54Well, he can't stay at Betty's forever.
14:56Yeah, well, he's not staying here.
14:58Well, it's only for a short while until he sorts himself out.
15:02Until he sorts you out, you mean.
15:03Oh, Kelly.
15:04Dad's been dead barely a week and you move your old lover in.
15:07It's not like that.
15:09You make me sick.
15:10I always thought you were a mad cow, but this is unbelievable.
15:13It's not like that.
15:17You've only got to admit that's how it looks.
15:19Well, I don't care how it looks.
15:21You lounge around till all hours.
15:23She has a moody every other day.
15:24I need help.
15:25He's a friend.
15:27I believe you.
15:28Dazzles wouldn't.
15:29Where are you going?
15:30To find Kelly.
15:38There's not much breathing room in these, is there?
15:40Come here.
15:44There.
15:47Paddy.
15:48How long do you reckon Kelly's going to be off work?
15:50Er, I don't know.
15:51I've always been quite flexible about it, though.
15:53Well, long enough to get someone else in?
15:55Yeah, I reckon so.
15:56Why?
15:56Do you know anyone?
15:57Yeah, me.
15:59I don't know if you're going to start concentrating on your mocks.
16:01Yeah, I'm more than capable of doing both.
16:04And anyway, I'm planning to go to Agricultural College,
16:07so it'll look really good on my CV.
16:08Well, pop round the vets tomorrow and see what the crack is.
16:10Thanks.
16:11So, have you two ever done this before, then?
16:13No, I've done a bit of paintballing, you know, on the army bases and that.
16:16Great.
16:17I don't know if I'm just going to get shot over and over.
16:19Well, the team leader reckons it's all about hiding.
16:21Like a sniper.
16:23Hi.
16:23I'm doing where you've got to.
16:25Sorry I'm a late.
16:26We'll just get kitted up and then let battle commence.
16:37Yes?
16:38Has anybody ever told you what a wonderful employer you are?
16:42No, not recently.
16:43Because you are.
16:45And?
16:45Well, nothing much.
16:46Well, as a top employer, you must realise it's essential that your staff are stretched.
16:5240 breakfasts and the early morning restaurant enough for you, then?
16:55No, no, no.
16:55I mean, er, mentally stretched.
16:57Get to the point.
16:59I happen to be very interested in the law.
17:02In fact, I'm thinking of taking a few night classes to improve me, er, what, lay knowledge?
17:06What lay knowledge?
17:07I'm a fountain, right?
17:08It's all bubbling away with no way to pour.
17:11Except out of your mouth.
17:12What is it you actually want, Marlon?
17:14Well, not much, except maybe, I don't know, a day or four off next week to attend the trial.
17:17What?
17:18To observe, watch, learn.
17:19No!
17:20I have to be in court myself, so I can't spare you.
17:26Who is everyone?
17:27Besides me?
17:29There's no one in the woolly either.
17:31Er, Will said something about going laser blasting.
17:35What?
17:36Someone could have told me.
17:38They probably thought you were, I don't know, busy.
17:41Yeah.
17:43I think we'd think.
17:49Yeah!
17:54Morning.
17:55Morning.
17:56Morning.
17:57Will you stop?
17:59Don't believe this.
18:00Paddy!
18:01Er, stop firing!
18:03Where are you?
18:05I'm up here.
18:06I've shot everyone about five times over.
18:08No one's even got me yet.
18:10Yet?
18:10You could shoot me.
18:11Or you could join me.
18:20There's nothing in your breathing room in here either, isn't there?
18:22I like to think of it as cosy.
18:24You don't.
18:25Shh!
18:35I've been looking for you.
18:38Thanks.
18:41So what's wrong?
18:44Have you any idea how hard it is being an orphan at my age?
18:48What?
18:50Well, people think of orphans as little kids with big, sad eyes.
18:56But it hurts just as much when you're 18.
18:58You've got Mum.
19:01Great.
19:03And you've got me.
19:11What are we going to do?
19:13Nothing.
19:14I mean about Terry.
19:16I'm not happy to have stay here.
19:19He's a prat.
19:20And the way he was with Tricia, I don't think I could end up coming down and seeing his ugly
19:23face every morning.
19:25There's nothing we can do about it.
19:27It's what Viv wants.
19:29She always does exactly what she wants if I don't think for anybody else.
19:32Yeah, well, I'm not standing for it.
19:35Lose yourself.
19:37Why are you in a mood with me?
19:39I'm not.
19:41Yes, you are.
19:42I haven't done anything wrong.
19:44Of course you have.
19:46We both have.
19:49How messed up is our family?
19:52We couldn't even have a Christmas meal in peace.
19:56I can't believe you tried to kiss me.
20:00I can't believe I let you.
20:02For God's sake, Scott.
20:04What? What did we think we were doing?
20:11Cheers, man.
20:12Oh, thanks, love.
20:13Not working tonight?
20:15Nah, cold and sick.
20:16And are you?
20:18Oh, it must be.
20:19I'm actually considering taking a job at post office.
20:21With Viv?
20:23Yeah, well, she asked.
20:25I said I'd think about it.
20:26Yeah, you want to do that and think hard.
20:28Because Viv Windsor comes with a lot of baggage.
20:30And you've already proved you can't carry it for the long haul.
20:32It's not like that.
20:33Of course not.
20:34She'd tell you that, did she?
20:36Aye.
20:38Maybe you're right.
20:39The next time I'm going to wake you, won't you?
20:42Yeah.
20:42I'll get the drinks.
20:43So you should?
20:44You lost?
20:45Who won, Rachel?
20:46No, I'm getting these drinks in McRaeham.
20:48I came joint last.
20:49Trisha won.
20:50No one even shot her once.
20:51Except me.
20:52Yeah, and I'll never forgive you for that.
20:54I thought we were a team.
20:55Well, we are a team.
20:56We're a good team.
20:57But I just need you bringing down a peggy team.
20:59It was a good laugh, though, wasn't it?
21:01Yeah, it made me feel like a kid again.
21:03Well, maybe we should do something a bit more adult, like a club.
21:05Yeah, I'm up for that.
21:06Yeah.
21:06Tomorrow, then, we can meet in here, go into Leeds for a meal, then check out a club.
21:10Yeah.
21:12Don't you think we're a bit old for a club?
21:14Well, you might be, but it's ages since I've had a bit of a boogie.
21:18Well, I don't...
21:19I'm not much of a dancer, really.
21:22Oh, Graham Clark, you've actually admitted to something you're not very good at.
21:26Don't worry too much.
21:27We won't make fun of you.
21:29Much.
21:31Paddy seems to have got over there, Mandy.
21:34Looks like he's getting a bit of help from Turner's young lass.
21:37Hmm?
21:38You reckon?
21:39Hmm?
21:39Down to?
21:40She wouldn't touch him with someone else's barge, Paul.
21:44Tasty young thing like her.
21:47Tasty, is she?
21:48Hmm?
21:49Well, yeah, in a...
21:51In a china doll, kind of way.
21:54Not like you, my lovely,
21:56who is down-to-earth beauty.
22:00Personified.
22:01Thanks.
22:02I think.
22:05It were a nicer butch to look after Belfrist, hadn't it?
22:08I think he's quite tame with it.
22:11He's not the only one.
22:14Oh, well.
22:16Hey, we're a bolter with a blue lace of that.
22:20But I've never been smacked round the chops by someone so wonderful.
22:25I'm right proud of you, Dad.
22:31We both had a bit too much to drink.
22:34It was...
22:35just a bit of fun.
22:38I'm not blaming you.
22:40Well, not entirely, but...
22:43I can't help thinking about my dad.
22:46Lying there and kneeling me.
22:49And where was I?
22:51With you?
22:53And what way to know?
22:55I could see what was coming.
22:58I should have just gone home.
23:01And then it'd never have happened and maybe I'd found Dad in time.
23:04The police said that his head injuries were so bad
23:10that he wouldn't have survived whatever time he found him.
23:14We'll never know, though, will we?
23:18So I'm sorry if I'm a bit off with you, but...
23:22when I see you, I'm appalled at us both.
23:27What are you doing?
23:30Nothing.
23:31Didn't you just hear what I said?
23:34Yeah.
23:35So why keep pushing it, Scott?
23:38I'm not a conquest.
23:40Don't try and smooth talk me.
23:42I'm your sister.
23:43I know that.
23:44And I can also say that you're upset.
23:47So I want to hug you as my sister.
23:50Well, don't.
23:51Because I don't need your hugs.
23:53And I don't need Viv.
23:55You're a bunch of takers.
23:57And just being in the same room as you makes me feel ill.
24:01Kelly!
24:02Bye!
24:02Bye!
24:05Bye!
24:05Bye!
24:11Bye!
