00:26You can colour in this bit and that bit and it'll all drop.
00:33Maybe next time then, okay?
00:40Struggling move his wheelchair.
00:43Consultant did say that they make lightweight ones for kids, but...
00:48So expensive.
00:51You look like you haven't slept.
00:53I've got a few hours.
00:54There's no way you can go back to work right now.
00:57Look, Harry and I have been talking.
00:59We don't have much, but whatever we have is yours.
01:01You don't have to do that, Aunty Kim.
01:03Me and Patrick have a bit pulled away as well.
01:05Look, you have done more than enough letting us move in here.
01:09How is Patrick?
01:11He's enjoying being with his grandsons.
01:13What he misses you all.
01:15And I know he would like to help you on Jordan.
01:19Look, between the physio and the hospital appointments...
01:22I mean, you could be tied up for months.
01:24You just need to focus on Jordan.
01:27Yeah?
01:27Not putting food on the table.
01:33Mmm.
01:41I've sold three out of the last five motors and Lauren's still on a bigger commission than me.
01:45I mean, it's not fair.
01:46Yeah, but her name's above the door, Prius.
01:47What do you want me to do?
01:52Oh, hi.
01:54Glad you're here.
01:55I need your help.
01:57Right, I need you to hand out these invitations.
01:59Just got them from the printers.
02:03Babe, it's a little drink in the vid.
02:05That's no way to describe the engagement party of the year, Max.
02:10This is our chance to pull out the stops and show everyone how in love we are.
02:15Mm-hmm.
02:16I'll invite the whole square.
02:19Well, everyone who's anyone, anyway.
02:22Right, so if you give those out, I'm going to go and meet the caterers.
02:26Caterers?
02:28Blimey.
02:28You really are pulling out all the stops for this, aren't you?
02:31You can't put a price on happiness, Max.
02:36See you later.
02:38Party of the year.
02:40Reckon you can keep your eyes off another woman long enough to make a toast?
02:44I don't know what you're talking about.
02:47I need Lauren's at an auction tomorrow, so you can update the calendar, please.
02:52Today's a twenty-night?
02:54Yeah.
02:57I struggled.
02:59I always tend to get wine for housewarming, chocolates for birthday.
03:03What says, thanks for giving me a home in the midst of a troubling domestic situation?
03:08A cactus.
03:10And I love it.
03:11Do you need her handing me your stuff, Bea?
03:13Oh, I think I'm done.
03:15Thanks.
03:16Actually, you will.
03:17Never buy more than you can carry in one load.
03:20That's what I always say.
03:22Tell you what, why don't you find a home for our newest housemate?
03:25I think I might call him Kelvin.
03:26Oh, Kelvin the cactus.
03:28I see what you've done there.
03:29Come on, Kelvin.
03:30You'll be very happy here.
03:34That was really kind of you.
03:36It's all right.
03:36I'm sorry about what I said the other day.
03:38I was just a bit upset.
03:40It's just weird, Dad, not being here.
03:41I know, love.
03:42Just meaning Dad, just need a bit of space, that's all.
03:45Oh, yeah.
03:46By the way, I changed the Wi-Fi password.
03:48Really?
03:49What do you do that for?
03:50It takes about ten minutes to put all those letters and numbers in.
03:54You have to do it every couple of months, Mum.
03:55It's internet security.
03:56I'll lock you on if you want.
03:58All right?
03:59Well, my passcode, as always, is Janet's birthday.
04:03Thanks.
04:08How do I mind?
04:13Uh, 310798.
04:18Look, I'll walk you over to the Minute Mart.
04:20Get some bits for dinner, eh?
04:21Oh, yeah.
04:22Teco Tuesday.
04:24Oh, no, it's not Tuesday, is it?
04:25Um, Massacre Monday?
04:27Oh, I love Massacre, but it gives me terrible wind.
04:31But I can't resist it, so let's do it.
04:33Yeah, I'll see you, Danny.
04:34See you later.
04:40The room is all sorted, and the bed is all made.
04:44Great.
04:45I've got every cereal and kids snack under the sun.
04:47Nice.
04:48And I asked Lily to bring round some, er, bats and balls.
04:51And she's also offered to give us Arthur's old bike that he's grown out of.
04:54All right.
04:55Well, all we need to do now is stop that psycho from over the road coming along and scuppering the
05:02whole thing.
05:02Yeah.
05:03No more on easy street.
05:05You were up tossing and turning all last night.
05:09Yeah.
05:10Don't give Nicola the satisfaction, eh?
05:14Like it or not, if she gives the footage to the wrong people, then everything that we're trying to build
05:17with Ria just goes away.
05:20It's because of me.
05:21No.
05:22Why would I not worry?
05:23Eve, stop.
05:27They're supposed to be here by now.
05:28I can't.
05:29Listen, this is my...
05:29What if Nicola's already given in the footage?
05:31I can't.
05:34OK.
05:34You good?
05:36Yeah.
05:36Yeah.
05:40Hi, Lars.
05:42Oh, hey.
05:43Did you get the to-do list I text you?
05:46Speeches, catering, decor?
05:47Yeah, I thought you were still looking at venues, though.
05:49No, not the wedding.
05:51This is the engagement party.
05:52It's in two days.
05:53You're having speeches at an engagement party?
05:55It's a bit much, isn't it?
05:56Do you know what?
05:57You sound just like Max.
05:58Yeah, well, I was just hoping to turn up and have a few drinks, Mum.
06:01Gina, you're my maid of honour.
06:04All I'm asking you to do is just stand up and say something nice about me.
06:07Surely that's not too hard.
06:09Yeah, it's not that.
06:10It's just I've got a lot on at the minute, you know, moving in with Harry.
06:14Right, yeah, well, as usual, I'm way down the pecking order.
06:17No, look, I am happy for you, and I'm so excited about the wedding.
06:21I'm just stretched.
06:23Why don't you ask Peter?
06:24Or Lauren?
06:26Yeah.
06:27Yeah, you're right.
06:27There's plenty of candidates waiting to big me up.
06:44Oh, aubergines.
06:45Not going to be much of a massacre without them, is it?
06:48Oh, right, er, okay.
06:50Oh, won't be long.
06:52Oh.
06:59Auntie Kim and Yolandi are going to see Mum this morning.
07:02They offered me money.
07:04Auntie Kim and Yolandi offer me what little they have.
07:07Meanwhile, Sheila is paying off my overdraft without me even knowing.
07:11You're free to pass her my details.
07:13How could I tell them that I couldn't take their money because I've sold my soul to Ray's grandmother?
07:18You haven't sold anything.
07:20Sheila wants to help.
07:21There's nothing to be ashamed of.
07:22Well, I don't think the family will think of it that way, Libby.
07:24It's just as well there's no reason for them to know.
07:34I know I shouldn't be here.
07:36I was out shopping and they had a sale on.
07:40What, is all that for Jordan?
07:43Is it my birthday?
07:45Erm, no, darling, it's not.
07:47You really shouldn't have, Sheila.
07:49Oh, I've got years of Christmases and birthdays to make up for.
07:53Indulge me.
07:56Everyone's at the hospital.
07:58Invite her over.
08:00What harm can it do?
08:11How's something happened?
08:12I don't need to sit down.
08:15OK, well, you always wanted me to go to college, so I know you didn't drag me out for no
08:18good reason.
08:21Erm.
08:22What's up with you lately?
08:24Oh, with me?
08:25Yeah, like, you're moving sketchy.
08:27Like, I don't know what's been going on in your head, do you know?
08:31Ever since Dad went away.
08:33This, this ain't got anything to do with your dad, Ivana.
08:35OK, well, with you everything's about Dad, so...
08:38Sorry.
08:40You know you don't owe him anything.
08:43Like, he ain't even talking to us at the moment.
08:45Oh, just stop it, please.
08:47I'm just saying that it ain't fair on you, yeah?
08:50And, like, we've been on our own before, so we could do it again.
08:56You know?
08:58Joel's being released today.
09:02The victim liaison officer rang me last week.
09:04He said he tried to call you, but he didn't pick up.
09:07Because I, I thought that was a dodgy scam number calling me.
09:10I'm sorry, babe, I just, I didn't know how to tell you.
09:14He hasn't served his full sentence yet, Mum.
09:17OK, he's going to do the rest in the community.
09:19Not here, OK?
09:21He's going to his mum's.
09:23And I ain't spoken to Vicky yet, but I'm sure she wants him back even less than we do.
09:27OK, well, being in Young Offenders doesn't wipe out what he did to me.
09:31No, of course not.
09:33That's going to be on his record for good.
09:35He ain't going to get away treating anyone like that again.
09:38Get real, Mum.
09:38Like...
09:43Thanks for this.
09:53Oh, thank you.
09:55You've done the training and we've got every confidence in you.
09:58Just remember, the idea is to make everything as familiar as possible.
10:03Favourite foods, favourite TV shows.
10:04So, if she wants to take Tara the teapop with her everywhere, we go with it?
10:09Yes.
10:10I'm sorry, we haven't had time for a gradual transition.
10:13There was an issue with the Vos family and we had to move her urgently.
10:17I was thinking of getting her a tea set, you know, to go with the teapop.
10:20It came in a set once upon a time.
10:22When we removed Ria from a previous foster home, everything was ruined.
10:26The rest of the tea set, all her other toys.
10:30Ria's a special little girl.
10:32Chatty, outgoing, once she starts to trust people.
10:37Just remember, we're here for whatever you need.
10:44Oh, thank you.
10:47Your turn.
10:50I do not like this, Libby.
10:53If Aunty Kim and Yolanda come back and she's still here...
10:55Look, they held me up after great.
10:58If they'll find out that I'm seeing his gran and not said anything...
11:05Come on.
11:09I'm at home!
11:12All right, Calvin?
11:15All right, Will?
11:17Hiya.
11:20What do you think you're doing?
11:23It's a beautiful day outside.
11:25You should be out enjoying yourself.
11:28I'm not staring at a screen all day.
11:31For God's sake.
11:34Here.
11:35Okay.
11:36Let's see.
11:45You see that boy?
11:47I'm going to staple this P.E. kit to his back if he forgets it one more time.
11:51Kids, eh?
11:51Oh, kids.
11:54One, two, three, four, five...
11:56Is someone in there with Jordan?
11:58Community nurse.
11:59Just stop by.
12:00Oh, okay.
12:01I'll see you later then, yeah?
12:02Bye.
12:03Okay, bye.
12:05I can't do this.
12:07Relax, she's gone.
12:08This is her home, Libby.
12:10Everybody has bent over backwards for me and Jordan, and this is how I repay them.
12:15I have told Sheila to keep her distance.
12:18What is she playing at, rocking up on the square?
12:21It looked like she just wanted to see Jordan.
12:23No.
12:23She's pushing boundaries.
12:25I am the one who's supposed to make the rules, not her.
12:28Look, I am sorry, but I'm not having it.
12:33Come and sit at the table then, Ria.
12:37Well, we could join you.
12:39Doesn't matter to us.
12:40Yeah.
12:42Yeah.
12:45Come on, love.
12:46Rachel said you didn't have any breakfast, so you must be really hungry now.
12:51Well, if you don't want to eat pancakes, we've got cereal or toast.
12:56I can do a big smiley face on it, yeah?
12:58Ah, look at that.
13:00It's tasty.
13:07It's a work of art, that is.
13:16Okay, so she doesn't like pancakes.
13:18We knew this was going to be a bumpy road.
13:19Well, I mean, we can go with the flow on most things, but we do need to get her to
13:23eat.
13:23You know, that's basic parenting.
13:25If we can't get her to do that, I mean, what's the chances we can get her to sleep or
13:28get her to school on time?
13:29You've been here before, right?
13:31So, what if it was Kira or Vinny chucking pancakes all over the place, what would you do?
13:38Anything's worth a try.
13:42Oh, I thought once Dad got this hot shot solicit, he'd stop asking me to do so much.
13:47He sent me six messages and asked us this morning.
13:50Well, Ian trusts you.
13:51It's natural he's going to want you to help, isn't it?
13:53Hey, I just...
13:54Oh, Peter.
13:55You mean...
13:55Go on, Mum.
13:56That key is only for emergencies.
13:59I need someone to make a speech at my engagement party, and you are my first choice.
14:04Congratulations.
14:06Peter, are you listening?
14:08Yeah, of course.
14:08Of course, I'm just a bit busy with this dad business, Mum.
14:12Why can't any of my children ever put me first for a change?
14:15Relax.
14:16If you want a speech, I'll do your speech.
14:18Don't do me any favours, Peter.
14:20You've obviously got better things to do, just like Gina.
14:24I thought you said he was your first choice.
14:26He is.
14:27Now?
14:31Peter, please.
14:32I have not been this happy for such a long time.
14:36All I want you to do is just stand up and raise a toast.
14:39Okay, and I will.
14:40I will.
14:40I will.
14:41You might need to write the speech for me, because between work, the kids, and this nightmare with Dad...
14:46Do you know what?
14:47Just forget it.
14:47If you can't give me five minutes of your time, then I'll ask someone else.
14:54No.
14:55Oh, come on, Cindy.
14:56Don't look at me.
14:58I'm not being your third choice.
14:59Why don't you ask Oscar?
15:01Oscar?
15:03What, not to sit through some ridiculous joke fest?
15:06No.
15:09Well, thanks for nothing.
15:11Nice to know you both care.
15:13Mum.
15:16What's the big deal?
15:17It's just a party, innit?
15:22All right, see you.
15:22Hey.
15:23Hey.
15:24So, you're going in?
15:25I just wanted to check you was all right after.
15:28Look, I don't usually listen to people's conversations, I swear.
15:31What, was you in a pal?
15:32Yeah.
15:34If you ask me, they should never let that kid out.
15:37I'm not half the way good to you.
15:41Thanks.
15:42He'll get what's coming.
15:44Karma.
15:45You know what?
15:46I'm the one that has to live with it.
15:47Not him.
15:48So.
15:55Where is she?
16:14My son, Jagveed.
16:21You know, it was always a struggle to get him to eat.
16:25When he was little, I'd always find his breakfast hidden behind plant pots.
16:32And he'd even bribe his little brother to eat his veggies for him.
16:37But there was just one thing that he couldn't resist.
16:43Homemade, stuffed Bronte with sweet lassie.
16:48Oof, Pardswad.
16:52This is my mum's own recipe.
16:58You want to try some?
17:09What do you think?
17:10Can you take Jordan for a bit, please?
17:12Yeah, of course.
17:13Come on, darling.
17:17Everything okay?
17:18You need to pack up all of these things and you need to take them with you.
17:22But I bought them for Jordan to keep.
17:26And when my family see it all, where am I supposed to say it's come from, Sheila?
17:31Oh, what?
17:33We invited you back.
17:34We invited you back.
17:35But you have to see the amount of pressure I felt when you just showed up to the square like
17:40that.
17:41I should have kept my distance.
17:44All I could think of was seeing Jordan again.
17:46I'm sorry.
17:47So, what, you were pushing on purpose?
17:50You were trying to make trouble?
17:51No.
17:52I mean, the last thing I want to do is cause problems between you and your family.
17:57Yeah, but I trusted you with my son when every part of me was screaming not to.
18:00So if you are playing some sort of game or...
18:03I'm not.
18:05Oh, Chelsea, please.
18:06If you can't respect my boundaries, how can I trust you?
18:10I can see him again, can't I?
18:14I think it's best you go now.
18:23Maybe you said two words since you got them.
18:25No, but she's been fed and watered and that's down to you.
18:32I can't imagine what...
18:33She's gone through, especially at her age.
18:36I don't want to think about it.
18:38You know, it could take weeks for her to open up to us, even once.
18:43I mean, I know we've been building up to this, but now that she's here, it just...
18:45It feels like bigger.
18:50Making that little girl feel safe and giving her the home that she deserves.
18:54If we do nothing else with our lives.
19:00So, no more threatening Nicola.
19:03And no more worrying ourselves stupid, what she might or might not do.
19:07I think that the only thing that we give any headspace to is this.
19:12And the next time I'll answer, I'll just check the CCTV.
19:14Absolutely.
19:21Sheila?
19:23God, I think she forgot this.
19:24I know I overstepped.
19:26Jordan's the only family left in my life.
19:29The last few years have been hell and getting to know him has been...
19:34Can you talk to Chelsea?
19:36Get her to see my side?
19:38I don't think I can.
19:39But he deserves to know both sides of his family.
19:42Look, surely you can see that.
19:45Chelsea decides what's best for Jordan.
19:47No one else.
19:48I'm sorry.
19:50Have you seen Cindy?
19:51Yeah, she's over there.
19:57I know that Peter hurt your feelings, but...
19:59It wasn't personal.
20:00He's just stressed out about Ian.
20:02And Gina's busy with Harry.
20:05It's fine.
20:05No hurt feelings.
20:07Don't know where you got that impression from.
20:14You don't have to pretend with me, Cindy.
20:15I do know you a little bit by now.
20:18I know when you're upset.
20:19Back there, you were hurt.
20:21Like, for real.
20:24I'm not a child.
20:26I know a party is not as important as a court case.
20:30It'd just be nice if someone cared.
20:34You do have people that care.
20:36Me included.
20:40I mean, it's your party anyway.
20:43Would you care what people think?
20:45It should be about you and Dad.
20:47As far as your Dad's concerned,
20:48I'm barely worth a bottle of warm champagne.
20:51Well, that doesn't sound right.
20:52Because my Dad is crazy about you.
20:55He ain't shut up about the wedding.
20:57Then why can't we have an engagement party for the ages?
21:01There's enough doom and gloom in the world as it is.
21:04And when you found love like we have,
21:06you just want to shout about it.
21:09And sometimes the more my Dad shouts about something,
21:12the less it actually means to him.
21:16But please don't take this the wrong way,
21:18but it is his engagement too.
21:21Have you asked him what he wants?
21:38Look at that, boy.
21:39I snuck out while Mum and Bea were cooking dinner.
21:42That sounds about right, doesn't it?
21:44That woman's living it up in my house and I'm on bread and dripping.
21:48I got Bea's phone.
21:51What?
21:52Yeah, I tried to download it, but then she'd come home and I thought I hadn't.
21:56But it turns out it was just a load of games I hadn't downloaded.
21:59All her socials and all her messages already had.
22:02So, if there's proof of what she's done, you've got it?
22:07Yeah.
22:09Some of the messages were encrypted.
22:11That just means they're all scrambled up,
22:12but I can use a website online to turn them back into English.
22:16They'll be ready tomorrow.
22:17No more bread and dripping.
22:19We're getting you home.
22:21You're looking at a point.
22:25All right?
22:27I need those inputs back.
22:29Why?
22:30Well, it's not been a misprint, is it?
22:32Oh, sort of.
22:34I mean, I know they said Cindy and Max's engagement party,
22:38but it should have said Cindy's vanity project.
22:41Oh, don't be daft.
22:44I mean, there's nothing wrong with wanting to make a fuss, is it?
22:46Yeah, but it's not what you want, is it?
22:48I mean, we're supposed to be a team, Max.
22:50All right, fair enough, yeah.
22:51Some people have been looking at me a bit sideways around here.
22:54They can probably remember my last wedding.
22:56Excuse me, you are looking at someone
22:58who has two ex-husbands living around here.
23:02All right, look, I'll be honest.
23:03I never wanted to get married again.
23:06Didn't want any of it.
23:09And I met you last Christmas.
23:13The chemistry was off the scale, wasn't it?
23:15Right from the start.
23:21Come here.
23:23Come here.
23:24Yeah.
23:26Listen, what we have is amazing.
23:29I don't want to get in ruin by other people's comments.
23:33The only person I want to be with is you.
23:36Okay.
23:38Do you know what, Max Banning?
23:40You can be very sweet sometimes.
23:44Anyway, a party was a bad idea.
23:46Chances are no one of them can turn up.
23:48Oh, dear.
23:49That's a shame.
23:51We've just asked Kat to order ten cases of champagne.
23:54Decorations, catering.
23:56I told her, no expense spared.
24:00I don't want you to lift a finger.
24:01Oh, seriously?
24:04Maybe we could still cancel the party.
24:05No, I'm going to blow the roof on the big.
24:08Show the young ones out of the party.
24:10Oh, yeah.
24:12Right.
24:13Better get myself something to wear, then.
24:24Anyone, I think, you've got something to prove.
24:26No, not at all.
24:28Cindy's a woman I love.
24:30All I care about is making her happy.
24:49Great.
24:52It's really you.
25:07I didn't believe it when they told me.
25:09Trust me, it's a shock to me, too.
25:14I know you've asked me to visit for some time now.
25:20It's been years.
25:22I begged.
25:24You can hardly blame me for staying away after what you did.
25:32I still remember that last Christmas you and Chantal came to me.
25:36Those beautiful children.
25:41So why now, hmm?
25:43What's changed?
25:47I've been in contact with Jordan.
25:51He's a wonderful boy.
25:56Chelsea, let you see him.
26:00There wasn't Grixis a while back, and Jordan's out of hospital now, but
26:06they're not sure if he'll ever walk again.
26:11What?
26:14I offered to help with money, and that opened a door.
26:19Sounds like her.
26:22Well, does he, um, does he talk about me?
26:30He doesn't even know you exist.
26:35She doesn't want him to know who I am, and she won't tell the family about me.
26:44I pushed to spend time with him, put her under pressure, and...
26:50Now she may not let me see him again.
26:52Well, she can't do that.
26:54She's his mother.
26:55You're in here, and she can do what she likes.
27:15He really is special.
27:21The thought of not seeing him again.
27:26I tried getting through to Chelsea.
27:28She wouldn't listen.
27:32You and she had a life together, and if anyone knows how to get through to her, it's you.
27:45If I'm going to see Jordan again, I need your help.
27:53Put your hand up!
27:54I'm sorry.
27:59Tell me this to you.
28:05Get back with me, Mark.
28:10Do there.
28:11Childs aren't listening to me.
28:12Don't be wise, Monty.
28:19And if I'm saiyo, I'll make you hard.
28:21I want to put on a real show.
28:24So, Pete, it's the wrong time of the year for fireworks.
28:26Oh, well, for an engagement party,
28:29Cindy, most people just put a few cookies on the bar.
28:30Oh, I've got balloons coming in an hour.
28:32I've just squared it off with Cat.
28:34Oh, yeah, you'll need to construct the balloon arch.
28:36I'll send you my vision board for inspiration.
28:39Hey, Cindy, I'm up to me eyeballs right now.
28:41Cat's gone missing with the kids for a few days,
28:43and in case you ever notice, I've got a boozer to run, all right?
28:45Happy, I'm done.
28:46And I've got a delivery to sort out,
28:47but I'm happy to lend you one of my staff if it helps.
28:49Yeah, Tracy, no doubt.
28:51Yeah.
28:51I mean, how am I supposed to walk in here tomorrow
28:53and be bowled over how amazing it all looks
28:55when I've done all the grunt work?
28:57Oh, I don't know.
28:58Get one of the kids to help you.
29:00Peter and Gina are a lost cause.
29:02What about Lauren?
29:03No, she's at an auction all day.
29:05Yeah, I'm not going to ask Oscar.
29:06I've seen the state of his bedroom.
29:08You'll have to lend me prayer for the day.
29:10Oh, look, come on, I'm tying up this place.
29:12It'll be right up her street.
29:14Oh, now we've got moments to flog, haven't we?
29:15Uh, what is more important,
29:19flogging a few old bangers
29:20or keeping the love of your life happy?
29:30Hey.
29:33Can you stop doing that?
29:35Come and sit with me.
29:36I've been in and out of paediatrics with Jordan.
29:38I can't risk passing on any bags, Mum.
29:42I haven't been close to anyone in weeks.
29:46It's like Covid all over again.
29:49It's it worse.
29:50It's me on the outside and everyone.
29:54Carrying on as normal.
29:57It's not forever, Mum.
30:00I get that you all just want the best for me,
30:02but I can't...
30:08I just...
30:09I can't stand being isolated like this.
30:14Please, Joss.
30:35Right.
30:37I want to know everything.
30:39I want to know about Jordan's physio,
30:41you and Libby.
30:43Everything I've missed.
30:45No, you've got enough to worry about.
30:47You don't need to worry about us.
30:50We need to face reality.
30:53I'm not just in here for a few days.
30:55You know, this is...
30:56for the long haul.
31:00Jack's worried out of his mind
31:01he's pretending not to be.
31:04All I get out of Ricky and Amy is,
31:06oh, I love you.
31:08Happy face emojis.
31:12Can you and me
31:14just be normal with each other?
31:17Please, Joss.
31:23Well...
31:25I don't know if the physio's helping.
31:28He just cries
31:30all the time.
31:32And he needs help
31:34on and off the toilet.
31:36It must be so hard.
31:38I'm so sorry, darling.
31:39Libby's been amazing with him.
31:40And if she ever moves back to Oxford,
31:42we'll go in with her.
31:43Oh!
31:44She is a rock, that girl, you know.
31:48You're a rock.
31:50She's a know-it-all.
31:51Yeah.
31:53Well, there must be more I've missed.
31:56I know you lot,
31:56never a dull moment.
32:00No.
32:01Nothing that comes to mind.
32:06I ain't running around after all day.
32:08If I had my way,
32:09I'd have you here working, all right?
32:10But I've got to keep Cindy sweet, ain't I?
32:12Oh, yeah, right,
32:13cos she's all you care about
32:14in the whole wide world.
32:16Are you going to work we're out or not?
32:18Not.
32:19Even if I wanted to do you a favour,
32:20which I don't,
32:21I'd lose a day's commission.
32:23It's all right, I can sort that.
32:25Oh, Max Banning puts his hand in his pocket.
32:28This party really must be something special.
32:31I'm surprised you want me anywhere near, considering.
32:35Well, that's a mistake, will it?
32:37Ain't going to happen again.
32:39Just do us both a favour, Priya, here.
32:41Just focus on your own family, will you, please?
32:43What do you think I've been doing?
32:45You could double that for a start.
32:51What, are you happy now?
32:51He just cleared me out.
32:53Get yourself over the bit.
33:02He's looking a bit droopy, isn't he?
33:08Come on, Calvin.
33:09Cheer up.
33:11Now, I always wanted real plants in this house,
33:13but Billy not a fan.
33:15Probably just as well,
33:17cos I don't have a green thumb.
33:19Well, maybe you struggle cos you just didn't get the chance to practise.
33:23Yeah, could be Charlie Dimmock by now, if I had the chance.
33:27It's funny, isn't it, the compromises you make for other people?
33:29Well, being on your own does have its advantages.
33:34You need to tell Billy what's what and make it clear that he's not going to be back in this
33:37house any time soon.
33:39He's still the kid's dad, Bea.
33:42Nothing can stand in the way of them spending time together.
33:44Sounds like Billy's been standing in the way of you for years.
33:49You need to sit him down and make a plan for the future.
33:52You know, the nitty-gritty of co-parenting.
33:56Start to have the conversation about the hard stuff.
33:58Then we can start to plan to have some fun.
34:01Cos you are a strong, independent woman, honey.
34:05And the world is your oyster.
34:07It is.
34:15Thanks for coming.
34:18Look, you don't owe me anything after my behaviour yesterday.
34:25Do you know how hard it was for me to trust you?
34:31After Grey was arrested, I saw to myself I would just never let him anywhere near to him again.
34:38I'm not Grey.
34:40I'm as horrified by him as you are.
34:44I always knew there was something off about him, the way he treated Chantel.
34:57I'm sorry if I was harsh yesterday.
35:01But, Sheila, this isn't a negotiation.
35:04I know that.
35:06You're in charge.
35:08Always.
35:11Look, I don't care if Jordan never knows who I am.
35:15All I want is for him to be happy and comfortable.
35:19And that is all I've ever wanted.
35:23I'm not just talking about treats.
35:26You and he deserve a place of your own.
35:30And Jordan deserves the best education when he can buy.
35:35But that's for the future.
35:37Right now, Jordan mentioned that his wheelchair was too heavy.
35:43Yeah.
35:44They do a carbon fibre one, but it costs a fortune.
35:50I contacted the company who makes them, and they have a demonstration model in his size.
35:57I managed to order it with next day delivery.
36:01Are you serious?
36:06That is unbelievably generous.
36:09No strings upon us.
36:14If it's the last thing I do for Jordan, so be it.
36:20Hang on.
36:21Next day is in now.
36:24Mm-hm.
36:29This don't feel right, you know, fooling around in the middle of the day.
36:34Well, you have delivered the mail to the good people of Walford.
36:39Josh is watching the salon.
36:43So, I think that we deserve this.
36:48Yes.
36:49You are one head of a woman, Kim Foxx.
36:52I know.
36:54I...
36:56Whoever that is, get rid of them, quick.
36:58I will.
37:07I will.
37:11Cheers, love.
37:12Cheers.
37:13What's that?
37:15That is a brand new wheelchair for Jordan.
37:19Paid in full, apparently.
37:20But she also ain't got that sort of money.
37:21Has she?
37:33All right, babe?
37:35Yeah, Mum.
37:37I've just been thinking, and I think I need to go and see Dad.
37:41It's just all this stuff with Joel and...
37:43I told you.
37:44Joel's elsewhere, right?
37:45He can't touch us.
37:46Yeah, but, Mum, it doesn't feel like that.
37:49All right, um, if you've got questions, we can talk to your liaison officer.
37:52I don't want to talk to the liaison officer.
37:55I want to talk to Dad.
37:56He makes me feel safe.
37:58I get that, babe, but he's just...
38:00He's not in a good place right now.
38:01Yeah, but he'll want to know what's going on.
38:04Like, without him, I just feel like there's no-one looking out for me.
38:08Uh, hello?
38:09Look, Mum, can we...
38:10Can we just go see here?
38:12Varnie, have you been through all of this?
38:14Yeah, and what I'm saying is, I just don't understand why I can't go and see my own Dad.
38:18Look, Mum, if we go there, he'll want to see us.
38:20I know he will.
38:21Varnie, I said no.
38:23Sorry, I...
38:24I just...
38:26Why are you being so weird about this?
38:28I'm not being weird.
38:29Mum, I know you, and you're being weird.
38:32We've got to make a balloon arch.
38:34I've never made one before, but, um, Lily says that, um, just watch a video.
38:38OK, yeah, it's this party.
38:40You've got roped in and all, did you?
38:41Well, I've only just got back from the Wendy's, and to be honest, I couldn't give two hoops
38:44about Cindy's party, but, um, I don't know how I got volunteered.
38:48Mum, why aren't you telling me?
38:49Oh, sorry, babe, I've got to go.
38:50Mum!
38:51Mum!
38:51I don't know how much it sounds.
38:52Sorry.
39:01Who's just speaking here about his putting in the wheelchair out there like that?
39:04What do you think?
39:05Who's going to take it out and say nothing?
39:07Don't think so.
39:07Oh, there he is.
39:09Hey!
39:09My nephew doesn't need your blood money.
39:12Sorry, what?
39:14Seriously, Maggie, it's bad enough you put him in a wheelchair.
39:16And now you're treating Chelsea like she's some kind of charity case.
39:19I've told you time and time again, it really...
39:22What's going on here?
39:23Tone-deaf moneybags here has brought Jordan a brand new wheelchair.
39:27I didn't do it, OK?
39:29I mean, I would have done it in a heartbeat if I didn't think it would get twisted, but...
39:33I'm sorry.
39:34I'm really sorry.
39:37It must have been Ian.
39:39Is he the only one we know with deep pockets and a guilty conscience?
39:42Well, it's probably Sheila.
39:43Sheila's buying new things.
39:45Sheila?
39:46Who's Sheila?
39:55Ta-da!
39:57Lily was right.
39:59On video?
40:00I can conquer the world.
40:01Yeah, all you've got to do now is stick on 50,000 more.
40:05I hope you should be strung up for landing you at this.
40:07Oh, not really.
40:09This is infinitely better than scrubbing toilets, let me tell you.
40:13Contributing to someone else's special occasion.
40:17I don't have very many of my own these days.
40:20Oh, that's depressing, Jane.
40:22Not really.
40:23Miss life.
40:24Harvey was supposed to be my third chance of happiness.
40:28Well, fourth, really, for Count Daniel.
40:31Oh, yeah? What happened to him?
40:32Dead.
40:32Liver cancer.
40:34We both know that Harvey preferred Cathy's ice buns to mine, so here I am!
40:41It was all right to begin with, but then Martin died and Stacey left.
40:47Oh, but, Jean, please stop. Right.
40:49Stacey's been gone, what, like eight months and you're still harping on like it was yesterday?
40:53Sorry.
40:55Should I be over it by now?
40:57I mean, she is on the other side of the whole wide world.
41:00Yeah, at least you know where she is.
41:03Sorry.
41:04Whatever.
41:06Oh, you know, if I'm going to have to listen to any more about your sad little life, I'm going
41:09to need a drink.
41:19She must post on social media every five minutes. She is obsessed.
41:23Yeah, obsessed with ruining my life.
41:25I'll go through the lot.
41:27Bees set you up. There's got to be some sort of proof.
41:29Yeah.
41:30We've got to spell out exactly what she's done.
41:33If it's too complicated, well, me and Mum, she won't understand, will she?
41:40Is someone going to tell me what the hell you think you're doing?
41:47Libby?
41:49Jordan?
41:54Seen the wheelchair then?
41:55Yeah.
41:55Come a bit of a bad time, actually.
41:58All paid for by your serial killer, loving fairy godmother.
42:02Don't worry. Jordan's playing in his room.
42:05It was him who mentioned Sheila.
42:07She tried lying for you, but she couldn't think of a good one fast enough.
42:15Doesn't matter.
42:17Because I have got an injured son and I've got a sick mother
42:22and I don't have the energy to keep lying.
42:26So, yes.
42:27Sheila is Grey's grandmother and she has been spending time with Jordan.
42:32Hang on.
42:34Yesterday.
42:35Tell me that wasn't her in the house.
42:40Chelsea!
42:42We have taken you in.
42:44And now you're just bringing this rich psychopath into our home.
42:47Oh, I'm a psychopath.
42:48Says you!
42:49Yes, says me!
42:50Because even if she was, Jordan is my son, not yours.
42:55So stay in your lane.
43:00It is bad enough stealing someone else's phone, but to go rifling through it?
43:06That's a complete invasion of someone's privacy.
43:08Well, she didn't give us much choice, did she, after what she did?
43:11Bea is my friend and I trust her, okay?
43:15Why is that just not good enough for you?
43:17Because I know better.
43:18That's why.
43:19Alright, okay.
43:21Yeah, because I'm just simple, stupid little hun.
43:23No, no, that is not what I said.
43:25You did.
43:26That's exactly what you said when you didn't think I could hear you.
43:29How many other times have you said that over the years, Billy?
43:31You are supposed to be the one person who sees me for who I truly am, but you don't, do
43:36you?
43:37Honey?
43:37No.
43:38I have my own mind.
43:40I do have my own opinions.
43:43My whole life I was treated like an airhead.
43:46My dad did it, you do it.
43:47But there is so much more to me.
43:49And Bea sees that.
43:50She understands that.
43:51She knows that I'm capable of things.
43:53I'm just sorry that my family don't.
43:56What are you doing, Mum?
44:01The real reason I came round here in the first place was to talk to you about our future.
44:05To work out a separation long term.
44:07Separation?
44:08Bea thought it would help me stay positive if we worked on a plan together.
44:11Oh, I had known it was her idea.
44:13She just wants me out of the house for good.
44:16She wants what's best for me.
44:17No, she don't.
44:19She pretends she does and she pushes you into doing what she wants you to do.
44:22She's got her claws in you, Mum. Deep.
44:24You said you trusted me.
44:26You're my mum.
44:27Of course I trust her.
44:29Me?
44:30But not my judgement or my opinions, right?
44:36Please, Mum.
44:38Listen to me.
44:39Listen to us.
44:46I need to listen to myself.
44:48Trust myself.
44:51Even if no-one else does.
45:03These things are a nightmare.
45:07Jean!
45:07Stop it, please!
45:08Sorry.
45:09Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
45:11Are you letting off fireworks up here or what?
45:13Just making Cynthia Beale's dreams come true.
45:15All right.
45:17Hold on, is that my whisky you're drinking?
45:20No.
45:20No, of course not.
45:21Well, okay.
45:22Well, if it is, you know, just make sure you save me some.
45:25Yeah, thank you.
45:27You know, I'm beginning to think that we're not going to make all this happen.
45:31Yeah, well, if Cruella don't like it, then she could do it herself.
45:36It's a joke, anyway, two oldies like that getting married.
45:39Oh, no, you're wrong there.
45:40Never too old for love.
45:43Well, though, Max Branning would be banned from it if I had my way.
45:46Not a fan of his, then.
45:47You know, it's true what they say.
45:50The good die young.
45:53Daniel.
45:54Martin.
45:56The rotten ones stick around tormenting you over and over and over.
46:00Oh, please, Jean, you're killing me with this.
46:01Oh, no, I'm a fan of love, though.
46:04I've always admired you and Ravi.
46:06I've been a bit jealous, actually.
46:07What a dozen breakups.
46:09Old Bill at the door every five minutes.
46:10It's not exactly the stuff dreams are made of, is it?
46:12That doesn't matter.
46:14I've seen you two together.
46:15I've seen the way he looks at you.
46:17You're his whole world.
46:19Yeah, well, looks can be deceiving.
46:22Well, I don't believe that.
46:23Love shines a light.
46:24You can't fake it.
46:28He's in a mental health unit, isn't he?
46:31Right, so you heard the gossip, then, did you?
46:33Oh, yeah, not in a bad way.
46:35I've stayed in a few of them myself over the years,
46:38so I know what it's like being away from family.
46:42You yearn for them.
46:44He'll be yearning for you right now.
46:46All right, shut up, will you?
46:48Hey.
47:09I've seen what Grey has done.
47:12Close up.
47:13Karen, after Chantelle.
47:16Shirley, when Tina went missing.
47:19Carmel, with Kush.
47:20We get it.
47:21No, you don't.
47:22This Sheila might be a nice, sweet little old lady,
47:25but Grey is her blood.
47:27And if there is the slightest risk
47:30that she still cares for him,
47:32why would you go there?
47:33And what does your mum say about all this?
47:36So you haven't told her?
47:39Because you know that I am right.
47:42And you know that she would agree with me.
47:50Tea and a biscuit solves a world of problems.
47:54Not the least kind, Jean, but thanks.
47:59You know, when Ravi was in the mental health unit,
48:03it was awful just thinking about all the things
48:06he might be going through and not being able to help.
48:08But I got us through it.
48:12Because I kept thinking,
48:14soon he'll be fine.
48:16Soon he'll be out.
48:19We'll be back to normal.
48:22It didn't turn out like that.
48:24I don't know, for a bit.
48:26He came back and then I thought we were together,
48:30but...
48:32Then he just left.
48:35The kids don't know.
48:36They think he's still in there.
48:39And how am I supposed to tell them
48:40that their dad don't want to know us?
48:44I don't care how he looked at me.
48:47Because that ain't love.
48:51Have you thought that he might not be properly well yet?
48:56But I get it, you know.
48:58Men can be really cruel sometimes.
49:01That's an understatement.
49:03And it's always left to the women to pick up the pieces.
49:06It's annoying, actually.
49:07Yeah, too right it is.
49:09I mean, he's out there doing whatever he wants.
49:12And I'm just sat here, waiting.
49:15My whole life on hold.
49:17I did that.
49:19I waited around on and off for years for Brian.
49:22Stacey's dad.
49:24Turns out he was with his other family.
49:27You don't have to have to pick him, Jean.
49:28Yeah.
49:30And then I waited around for Harvey once I found out about his affair.
49:33And I didn't really love him.
49:35But I still waited.
49:36Couldn't help myself.
49:37Yeah.
49:38I would've stopped, but...
49:40Nothing makes sense without Ravi.
49:44Everything's out of control.
49:46And I've done things, you know, that I'm not proud of.
49:51Lies on top of lies.
49:56Another man.
49:59Yeah, another one who thinks he can get away with anything.
50:02Because we let them.
50:06Imagine if all the women stopped playing their silly games.
50:11No more waiting around, no more lying.
50:13No.
50:15What do you think all the men would do then?
50:18You all right?
50:19You two look like you're working off.
50:22What's that for you about?
50:26How's that, Jordan?
50:28You want to go faster?
50:32Faster?
50:34Come on!
50:34Whoa!
50:37He moved faster!
50:38Come on!
50:42Come on!
50:44Come on!
50:46Yes!
50:50I've only gone and made it worse.
50:52I didn't even think that was possible.
50:55Hey.
50:56You did your best.
51:01It's Phil about.
51:02I wanted to talk to her about our next sober socials meeting.
51:07Oh.
51:08What's happened?
51:09Or should I say what's Bea done now?
51:12No, it's me.
51:13I've got to put my foot right in it.
51:15I tried to get proof of what Bea's been up to, but it didn't work.
51:19I just wish I could go back in time and swerve her at that reunion.
51:23You're late for that now.
51:26You and her must know some of the same people from the old days.
51:30Maybe one of them can help us prove what she's really like.
51:33To be honest, none of my mates wanted much to do with Bea.
51:36Oh, it's a surprise.
51:39It don't hurt to ask though.
51:41You're right.
51:42Maybe I can dig in places that you can't.
51:46You and Honey are meant to be together.
51:48Right? Don't give up.
51:50I wish it was that easy.
51:53I've tried everything on me.
51:55Well, then it's time to try something new.
51:57Bea's only here because of me.
51:59It's time I helped to get rid of her.
52:11You asked me if seeing Sheila was worth the risk.
52:15I just saw my son smiling for the first time since the accident.
52:22So, yeah.
52:24For me, it is.
52:30So, you're gonna let her keep seeing Jordan?
52:34I trust Sheila.
52:38So, that should be good enough for you all.
52:40I took your advice,
52:42painted a picture of the future with Chelsea back in a big house,
52:46and Jordan in private school.
52:50Did it work?
52:52She texted me a few minutes ago,
52:55inviting me to visit Jordan whenever I like.
53:02I'm just glad that at least Jordan has you in his life.
53:06Knowing that he and I have some connection,
53:09even if he doesn't understand.
53:11It means everything.
53:13It must be painful.
53:17I know I deserve to be here.
53:20But he's still my son.
53:23You shouldn't have kept that photo.
53:26If the guards found out...
53:28Will you come back?
53:29Tell me more about Jordan.
53:33I'm not sure.
53:35I mean, Chelsea found out.
53:38If we don't tell her, how could she?
53:42You asked for my help.
53:45And I gave you exactly what you needed.
53:48And all I want...
53:52is just a few stories about my son.
53:55What's the harm in that?
54:03Yeah, absolutely no worries, Max.
54:05Cheers, Alfie.
54:06You're welcome.
54:07Right, canapes are all sorted,
54:09and Alfie's got champagne coming out of his ears.
54:11Well, that's all well and good, isn't it?
54:12But, I mean, look at that.
54:13It's all lopsided.
54:15Talking about it, it looks all right.
54:16You're supposed to be upstairs working with Jean,
54:19not having tea and biscuits.
54:21Listen, Cindy.
54:22I know you think this party's gonna be the do of the century,
54:25but before you humiliate yourself,
54:27there's something I've got to tell you.
54:29About Max.
54:30Sorry, what are you talking about?
54:31He ain't being honest with you.
54:33He's lying through his backside.
54:34Brina, what is this? What are you saying?
54:35Blokes.
54:36I know it's genetic, they can't help themselves.
54:38So from one woman to another, I've got to tell you...
54:41Brina, what are you talking about?
54:41Cindy, you've got no taste.
54:45Excuse me, you come marching in here to tell me that?
54:48Are you serious?
54:49Listen, someone's got to be honest with you, okay?
54:51All of this is tacky and it's cheap.
54:54And the worst thing is, your precious fiancé knows it.
55:04Honestly, I don't even know what she's talking about.
55:07Let me have a word, but...
55:12Oi, what do you think you're playing?
55:14Oh, what's the matter?
55:16Do you think I was going to say something else?
55:18That's just a taste that I can shout my mouth off whenever I like.
55:22I'm done with being treated like nothing by useless, spineless men.
55:27Listen to me, Priya.
55:29I've already told you I ain't interested.
55:32Oh, I can have you any time I like.
55:35I can blow up your entire life any time I like.
55:40No more bossing me around.
55:42No more paying me less than I deserve.
55:44From now on, you keep me happy.
55:48Well, I'll make sure you and Cindy never walk down the aisle.
55:52No.
55:53No.
55:55No.
55:56No.
55:56No.
