00:28I'll see you next time
00:37Dad, it's all yours
00:39It's all
00:40Dad, do you mind still going to pubs after?
00:43Oh, yeah, of course
00:44We'll grab a signage and we'll get off here
00:46Thanks, Dad
01:23Still adding to it, then?
01:26Well, if it isn't our local do-good and stooly
01:30Want to go and get your little council friends, do you?
01:33Listen, Jimmy, somebody had to say something
01:35Jessie had a nasty cut
01:36It could have been a lot worse
01:37Yeah, we all know where you park your caravan
01:40Now, look
01:40You look
01:42I'm sorry for Jessie
01:43But she was a victim of sabotage
01:47You are a whistle-blowing sneak
01:49It's getting out of control, Jimmy
01:50It's not just me
01:51Mine was a second complaint
01:53Oh, get back to your picket fence
01:55I've got no time for traitors
01:58Go on!
02:06I hope she said we're going to do jumps today
02:09It's a pony I feel sorry for
02:11Getting taken for a ride by his spilt little teenagers
02:14You still feel the same way, babe?
02:16I've gone off with your mum
02:18Well, nothing's definite
02:20You can change your mind
02:22I ate her at the contact
02:23But just the other day, it was great
02:25A laugh
02:26That was then
02:27Until she got greedy
02:28Look
02:29Those big, ignorant girls that have been on your case
02:32They'll get bored
02:33They'll move on
02:34You don't know that
02:36It may seem like the answer to take off
02:38Go somewhere where it's different
02:40We won't get cold, stuck up
02:42I know it's hard, babe
02:43But if you just face up to them
02:45I promise you
02:46It's the best feeling
02:47Yeah
02:48These bullies that you've made up
02:50I'm talking to your sister earlier
02:53If you run away, babe
02:54You'll be the new girl all over again
02:56Can't you see what I'm saying?
03:00Just promise me that you'll think about it
03:03I promise
03:06All right
03:07You'll get yourself ready
03:15Hiya
03:17Yeah, looks like a lion has done you good
03:19You look better
03:19Thanks
03:20I was hoping to catch lunch with you
03:22Sorry
03:23Just fancy a drink later on
03:25Yeah, maybe
03:25I'll be in the bar after evening surgery
03:27Okay
03:28Bear it in mind
03:29Hiya
03:30Going back to work?
03:31Yeah, afraid so
03:31Stuff to catch up on
03:32I'll see you later
03:33Yeah
03:35Right
03:36I'll see you
03:43You curtain twitching
03:45Just looking
03:46So have you been getting any stick off him then?
03:49Nah
03:49Just the kindly bedside treatment
03:51Eh, because I'll use some of that
03:54It sort of makes me feel worse somehow though
03:56Oh come on
03:56You had a fling
03:57No damage done
03:58Yeah, but it was damn stupid all the same
04:02Ugh, never again
04:04Do you want some coffee?
04:07What are you looking at?
04:11Explides, mate
04:13Time to bury the hatchet?
04:15Yeah
04:16It is
04:21You nearly ready, Gems?
04:23Coming
04:28You off your head?
04:29Well done, Jimmy
04:30Now you've got me dad ready
04:31To give you everything that you want
04:32What are you down about?
04:33You?
04:34Trying to get more money out of her
04:35Get lost, Leo
04:36It's a big con
04:37And you know it
04:38How do you know?
04:39Because you're devious
04:40That's why
04:42Does not inform me around here
04:44Anyway, she's mum
04:45And I miss her
04:46You don't even know it
04:47She'll get bored
04:48And you'll be back up here
04:49Before you've even unpacked
04:51She promised me loads
04:52New school and everything
04:54Yeah, meanwhile
04:55While me dad's up here
04:56Doing us nothing
04:57To keep things nice
04:57For our little Gemmy
04:58So why has everything gone wrong then?
05:00Because you took her
05:01Into your spoiled little head
05:02To take an E
05:03That's what started it
05:04Anyway, who's the fault
05:06You'd want me to stay?
05:07I'm not bothered either way
05:08The only thing I care about
05:09Is my dad
05:19What does she want?
05:20What do you think?
05:21Come to talk down to us as she
05:22Okay, tell her I've come to discuss wedding plans
05:25With the both of you
05:25Do you need that translating?
05:27Tell her she'll end up doing whatever she wants anyway
05:28Tell her she's not the centre of the universe
05:30Tell her there's no room
05:32Not in the leadership taking it all
05:33Oh yeah, well tell her little Miss Righteous
05:34That she's got no business intervening in other people's lives
05:37I've got her sacked
05:37She wouldn't know real life from a bowl of caviar
05:40Stop it now
05:41Beth makes more sense than the pair of you
05:48Ow!
05:54What happened?
05:56Nothing
05:57Look at your hand
05:59There's bloodshed in a righteous cause
06:02Not that you'd know anything about
06:03It looks bad
06:04What do you care?
06:06Once you get it cleaned up
06:07You could get infected
06:08That's why I don't want you anywhere near it
06:10Well don't blame me if you get gangrene
06:13I know your game
06:15Come on, get off my property, you turncoat
06:17All right
06:18All right
06:25Are you all right?
06:27I really did come round here to make it up, you know
06:29I know
06:30But she's not having it
06:31What can I do?
06:32She's having to adjust
06:33It'll take time
06:35Getting married's supposed to be happy
06:36It's all they say
06:38Only someone's happy, eh, Dumplin?
06:40Hey, who are you calling Dumplin?
06:43Hey, I couldn't believe me dad
06:44When I was and booked you a new date like that
06:46He did what?
06:48Mike never told you
06:49I'll do right
06:51So Ron's deciding when we get married now, is he?
06:53Oh, I wish I hadn't said anything now
06:55Well, it's clear which wedding he cares about
06:57Well, Mike's not backing down either
06:59Not after that
07:00Never any suggestion of you changing your date then
07:02Well, Nathan's landed this new job
07:04In London streets after the wedding
07:05We can't budge, I'm sorry
07:07Might as well not bother
07:08Oh, don't say that
07:09Listen, we don't need all that white meringue Jess and Vale stuff
07:12Getting married won't change how we are together
07:14Beth's proof of that
07:15Rubbish
07:16Your wedding is important
07:17And Beth makes it more important
07:20Not to some
07:25Right, son
07:26Mum here yet
07:27What's she coming for?
07:29Look, me and your mother need to talk
07:31So you be polite to her once you get there, okay?
07:33I don't know what you're not in this selfish cow
07:36You don't call her then
07:37Well, if Gemma really wants to go with her, why don't you let her?
07:39She'll see what Mum's really made of
07:41Well, that's a dumb
07:43Get that one
07:45Keeping out of the way
07:47Leo!
07:57Mick
07:59Come here
08:02Gemma's not here then
08:04She's had her friends
08:10Look, this has all gone too fast
08:13Leroy doesn't know about this, eh?
08:14When I came here, it was just to, you know, lend my support
08:18My daughter was in the dumps
08:19And now you've got full-time commitment
08:21Bit of a sharky
08:22I've got a new life now
08:25You don't change, Josie, I swear to God
08:27Meaning?
08:29Can't let anything interfere with your social life now, can we?
08:31Maybe it's just not the right time
08:33You've gone too far now
08:35Gemma thinks she's off tomorrow in some fancy car
08:37Don't do this, Mick
08:39You want her to stay
08:40I want our daughter to respect you
08:42Can't toy with her like this, Josie
08:46I just want to do the right thing
08:48You know, they've carried our baggage for most of their lives
08:52I've tried to bring them normality
08:54And you waltzing and throw her up the wall
08:55The perfect father, I suppose
08:57At least I've never used my children to make myself feel better
09:00You're feeling pretty good about yourself now, I bet
09:03They're the ones that count now, Josie
09:06Not us
09:07Not anymore
09:10Well
09:11I can't compete with Mr Perfect
09:12So might as well leave you to it
09:14Where do you think you're going?
09:16Back to my life and leave you with yours
09:17Oh, no, you don't
09:18You sit down
09:19You what?
09:20If you want anything more to do with her, that is
09:22I'm not going to be the one to tell her, Josie
09:24This is between you and Gemma
09:27You tell her
09:28Maybe that way she might still respect you
09:33Sorry I got upset
09:35Being here, what?
09:37Half an hour
09:37I'm far from settling things
09:39I've got you and her moves and all
09:40It's not your fault
09:41Trust me, Dad, to go steaming in again
09:43I suppose he was just trying to help
09:45The country of state and a marquee the size that millennium things all these thinking about
09:48Any dad would be chusting his daughter married in a place like that
09:52Bit of laugh comparing our wedding photos
09:55I know
09:56Why not?
09:57Why not what?
09:58We've cracked it
09:59Hey
09:59No way are you going to miss out on a wedding because we'll get married together
10:04Behave
10:04You and Mike at Cousington Hall, too
10:06And what about Nathan and his family?
10:08Well, give us a minute, haven't we?
10:09Just thought of it
10:09They'd be horrified
10:11I'm not asking, I'm telling them
10:13Do you mean it?
10:14Yeah
10:15And do you know what?
10:16I'd be dead proud to have you and all Mike getting hitched along with me
10:19Oh, Jack
10:22Hey, Casey, guess what?
10:24You two look happy
10:25We've found a way out of all this mess
10:27Oh, right, dear
10:29We're going to get married together
10:30Coddington Hall, same date and everything
10:32What do you think?
10:35Well, say something
10:38I'm made up for you
10:41I don't want to be there
11:08What's a lovely girl like you doing on her own?
11:11Meeting someone
11:13I'll make my way back to the bar then
11:16Um, thanks for the drink
11:19It's the eyes, I remember
11:22Sorry?
11:23Like twin tropical pools
11:36Jackie, leave on my account
11:37We need to talk
11:38I can't
11:39I've got to go to Susanna's
11:40I'm late for babysitting
11:41Right, well, I'm coming too
11:43If you want
11:43We're going to sort this out
11:45Let me gather up, Beth
11:46And I'll see you over there
11:47Okay?
11:48Yeah
11:52Here comes your moment of triumph
11:54I don't enjoy seeing our kids disappointed, Jose
11:57Look, I'm sorry
11:58It's the best way
11:59I do love them, you know, Mick
12:01Yeah, well, that's the easy part
12:03The challenge is to put them first
12:05Whatever else happens
12:07Rock steady, Mick
12:08God knows I'm no saint
12:10You know me as well as anyone, Jose
12:13Just tell her the truth
12:16I wonder if she'll forgive me, yeah?
12:18Hey
12:19I won't let her think badly of you
12:22You'll always be her mother
12:29The wedding's all sources?
12:30Yeah, it is
12:32I'll be for you
12:33It won't hurt for you to show it
12:36I'm sorry, Rach
12:37I'm made up for you, I really am
12:39And what about Jackie?
12:40She's your best mate
12:42You know, I always envied you two
12:44You've had the most solid, close friendship
12:46I just can't believe you could fall out like this
12:49She's the one who's leaving
12:50Is that what this is about?
12:53She's like family to me
12:55Jackie's excited about her future
12:57And God help her, she loves that man
13:00This is what she wants now, she's entitled
13:03I can't help it
13:04I just don't want to let her go
13:06I know it feels wrong, but you have to compromise
13:09Jackie's made an effort
13:11Now it's your turn
13:15So what about the invisible man then?
13:18Late?
13:19No class
13:21You might be hit by a bus
13:23Clumsy then
13:26All right then, Mr. Debonair
13:27How do you treat your women?
13:30Always start at the base of the neck
13:34Well, that's it, no conversation?
13:35Vastly overrated
13:37I've had a first-hand experience, remember?
13:40Yeah, it was great
13:43Not just a dirty story for your mates, then?
13:46I've got more class than that
13:49It was a bit of a laugh with no strings
13:52I'd happily be tied up by you
13:57Yeah, you're right
13:58Probably wouldn't work anyway
14:01Why?
14:03What could possibly match the first time?
14:08It was nice, yeah
14:12I want to kiss you now
14:15On that note, I think I'd better go freshen up
14:24I'd better go freshen up
14:25Jackie will never forgive me
14:25After what I said to her about this one
14:27She wants the mate back, that's all
14:29I do too
14:30Well, you know what to do
14:33It's just...
14:33Honey's part of her
14:35I know it seems colder, leaving Harry behind
14:38God knows I couldn't leave this one
14:40But it is Jackie's choice
14:43You've shown some patience, Rach
14:44Putting up with me and Jackie
14:45I get it
14:46No, I'm sorry for dragging you into it like that
14:49And now?
14:51Of course, I'll come to the wedding
14:52Did I hear just one?
14:54Weddings
14:56You've got to go and tell her
14:57I will
14:58Just as soon as these two have had the tea
15:00That's if you don't mind holding the force
15:01No, we'd be delighted, won't we?
15:04You can come with me, can't you?
15:15Excuse me!
15:18Yes, hello
15:20You're a doctor, aren't you?
15:21Yes, that's right
15:22But I'm sorry, I'm in an awful hurry
15:23It's your neighbour actually
15:25I...
15:26I really can't get involved right now
15:27Could you take a quick look at him?
15:29It's his hand
15:29I think it's serious
15:38Show me your hand
15:39Hey?
15:40Show me your hand
15:41No, it's alright, I hardly notice it
15:43Come on, let's get this filthy thing off
15:46I appreciate it
15:48Listen, I'm sorry about having a go at you the other day
15:50Of course it wasn't you that complained
15:52Well, that's that cleared up then
15:53I mean, you're a doctor, aren't you?
15:55Why would someone with lofty humanitarian callings
15:59I...
16:00Do something like that?
16:02No
16:03No
16:04Just a man whose only artistic statement
16:06Is a white picket fence
16:08When was your last tetanus jab?
16:10Is that necessary?
16:11Which cataton?
16:15Yeah, call into surgery tomorrow for a booster
16:17And, erm...
16:18Get that cleaned up, would you?
16:19Yeah
16:20You're the boss
16:22In the meantime, if you go septic overnight
16:23Give me a knock, will you?
16:24It's alright
16:32Doctor's orders, I suppose
16:51Stop that
16:53Trying to cover up the evidence
16:54I told you I'm meeting someone
16:56Mr. Invisible
16:58He's a doctor
16:59He may have got held up
17:00Why don't we slip away and go into town for some dinner?
17:03Why?
17:04Well, we've missed out on a whole area of our courtship
17:07What courtship?
17:08I'm single
17:09I want to keep it that way
17:10Ouch
17:12Anyway, I thought you didn't believe in conversation
17:16May I remind you that you are lurking suggestively in the ladies' toilet?
17:21I'll wait outside
17:35What can I do for you?
17:38I guess I'll listen
17:39If you're trying to show an interest in my musical taste, then you're too late
17:43Can't we even talk?
17:45About music
17:46Oh, and by the way, I'm just going to take your younger sister away from her proper home
17:50By the way, Leo, I'm your mother
17:52Hers too
17:53Yeah, when it suits you
17:54I always will be your mother
17:56What kind of a mother walks out on her kids when she gets bored?
18:00I left when things became impossible between me and your dad
18:04I'm sorry, Frid, it happens
18:06He was sick of you giving them the run around, you mean?
18:09You and me have to forget the past
18:10How can I? It's going to happen again
18:12You're going to take her away from us, get bored and then abandon her
18:15She's 13, she doesn't need the grief
18:18Well, me and your dad have decided
18:20That Gemma should just come the odd weekend for the time being
18:23If I want you to come too
18:24You never intended on taking her with you, did you?
18:27That's not true, Leo
18:28It just wouldn't be the right time, that's all
18:30Yeah, well, you keep on telling yourself that
18:32Because right now you're not up to it
18:34How dare you?
18:35No, how dare you?
18:36Come around here acting all concerned
18:38You've got Gemma twisted round your little finger
18:41I came because I was worried
18:42Wrong, you saw the chance to make trouble
18:45So what now?
18:46Trips to the seaside, ice creams
18:48Things that make you feel like a real mother
18:50Well, you'll never be that to me or our Gemma
18:52You haven't got what it takes
19:01Can I come in?
19:04Please, I've come to apologise
19:21I... I thought you weren't coming
19:24Oh God, hold up
19:27Darren, this is day of date
19:29Pleased to meet you
19:30Shall I get a round in?
19:32Erm, I've already got one
19:33Same again for you?
19:37Is this the man that you...
19:38Yes, that's right
19:38And you're happy with this?
19:41It's nothing
19:43Don't you tell me that
19:45I've never misled you Darren
19:47I'm just trying to get myself back on my feet
19:48So, Victoria tells me you're a doctor
19:52Pharmaceuticals is one of my interests actually
20:04So?
20:05Spent all afternoon with Harry
20:07He's a lovely little boy
20:09Aren't ya?
20:10And I can't believe I used him as some kind of weapon
20:13To have a go at ya
20:15Neither can I
20:17If I turned back the clock, I would
20:20I was a rape bitch
20:22I've seen you dishing out aggravation in my time
20:24But I never thought I'd be on the receiving end of it
20:27I thought I knew ya
20:29You know me more than anyone
20:31You still can't see what this is about
20:33Well, tell me then
20:34Isn't it obvious?
20:36I've been sniping at ya for weeks
20:39Criticising and bitching
20:40Showed that I was in the right
20:43The reason is
20:45The honest reason
20:48I just don't know what I'm gonna do with myself once you're gone
20:51Oh, Casey
20:54I've been feeling jealous and haze
20:56And it's all come out in this rage that I've got no control over
21:00I just wanted to keep being as a friend
21:02So I'd better stop pushing you away
21:04Oh, come here
21:11You must think we're mad
21:14Never mind him
21:16Casey, I'd never just abandon ya
21:17I couldn't even if I tried
21:20Are we okay then?
21:22Yeah
21:23We're at rock bottom for a while, but
21:26We'll never stop being like a sister to me
21:30Darren?
21:32He's upstairs
21:36I can't believe all this has happened, you know
21:38I feel so ashamed
21:41Listen, when we're about 80
21:42And we're sat in some old folk zone
21:44We'll be laughing about how no amount of husbands or miles
21:47Could care the way of you and me
21:50Darren?
21:54I just, I can't believe how destructive you're being
21:56What have I destroyed?
21:59You, us, our friendship
22:01That's just how you see it
22:03You're so dipping in and out of public toilets with perfect strangers for God knows what, that's not destructive
22:08And if I was doing it with you, it would be romantic
22:12Don't you dare bring what we had down to that level
22:16You didn't believe my feelings for Mark, you don't believe that I'm doing the right thing now
22:19He's a bit of a selfish pattern emerging here, don't you think?
22:22I have only tried to care for you however I could
22:25You've got to let go, stop telling me what to do
22:28I am not going to turn my back on you
22:30You're smothering me Darren
22:37Darren
22:40You're right
22:43Obviously, if I can't be your lover, I can't be your friend
22:53Leo, there's a brew here for you
22:55He's probably still attached to that high thigh
22:59Come and sit down next to your mum
23:02So, you'd like to spend some more time with your mum, would you?
23:06Because I've been doing some thinking myself
23:11I'm very lucky to have you as a daughter
23:14And I love you to bits
23:16I've even got a soft spot for your grumpy big brother over there
23:21Your dad's been a good father to both of you
23:26I want a turn now
23:28So, if you're up for an adventure, get packed up tonight
23:32Because tomorrow we're going off to your new home
23:34Your what?
23:36I'm going to be a proper mum to you
23:49Happy morning!
23:51Do you mind, son?
23:51Do you mean here at home or at school?
23:54Oh yes, she certainly will be
23:56Are you alone?
23:57We are?
23:58I've got loads to tell you
23:59Hmm, later
24:00He didn't care about us
24:02He even encouraged my mum to go abroad
24:04I don't care what he thinks
24:13Coming up, Barnes used to drive it, so why not you?
24:16A true 007 gadget gets a mean test drive with Driven, next
24:20Take-T imparted
24:23Take-t
24:24Take-t
