00:27Harry
00:27Yes, ma'am
00:28I need your help
00:30It's not Ivy, is it?
00:32No
00:33It's George
00:48Sleeping during the day
00:50Yeah, well, it's, um
00:53It's not easy at night
00:55When you
00:57When your roommate has night terrors
01:00Well, next time do something to get to your life
01:04I've got my own room
01:05No, see of you, but kind of everything
01:10I came here to apologise
01:13What for?
01:14Going off about Chelsea
01:20Is this place
01:24Well, it is the
01:28For nothingness
01:31I've never known a day last as long as it does in here
01:34Where the hell?
01:391,606 days
01:41Since I saw any of my children
01:45Already feels like a lifetime
01:52My, my daughter Lucy, she was
01:57She died and
01:59Sadly so did my son Stephen
02:01But
02:05Knowing I'll
02:07I'll never see them again is one thing
02:12Knowing your kids
02:13Knowing your kids are still out there and growing up
02:18That must be impossible
02:23Well
02:24If it
02:25If it means anything, I mean
02:28Jordan is turning into a really
02:31Really nice kid
02:39I need to
02:48I need to
02:50Put him on the sofa
02:51Yeah
02:51Okay
02:52Yeah
02:59I'll kill my dad
03:01You killed him, didn't he?
03:02Go now
03:02No, I want to hear this
03:04There's nothing to hear, you got it?
03:05What do I mean?
03:06Thank you very much for helping me
03:08But I will catch up with you later
03:11Harry
03:13Not a word
03:25George
03:27When you confess
03:29To killing someone
03:30You speak to family
03:33Not a neighbour
03:34We've got beef with
03:36And not
03:37In a park
03:39Where anyone
03:40Can hear you
03:41I let Eddie choke
03:43So I killed him
03:45Yeah
03:49Is this what all the angst and moodiness
03:52Has been about?
03:53What?
03:54That you let a murdering
03:56Abusive
03:57Racist
03:58Choke to death
03:59I mean
04:00Big flaming deal
04:14I don't want any trouble
04:16Imani
04:16Did you want to be shamed online
04:18Because of the stuff this creep posted
04:19Without your consent?
04:20No
04:22But we don't want you here, John
04:23You're pathetic
04:24No, I just want to live my life
04:26In peace
04:26Here with my dad
04:27Well, that's not going to happen
04:28Is it, Avani?
04:30Yeah, it turns out
04:31I get to say whether I want you living
04:32So close to me
04:34And guess what
04:34And guess what
04:35I don't
04:44Are you alright, Jane?
04:46No, not really
04:48I can't tell you how lucky you are that Tommy's staying with Lynn at the moment
04:51Because if he was here, he would be lumped in with the rest of them and all this Joel business
04:56Well, you know it couldn't have been Lily, she wouldn't hurt anyone
05:02Well, you need to see this
05:14Has Ross seen this?
05:15No, of course not
05:16Right, just keep it that way, yeah?
05:21I bumped into George earlier and he was really drunk
05:28He told me he killed his dad
05:33So I'm going to use it as a leverage to shut Nicola down
05:36Okay, me, not you
05:40Yeah, she's
05:42She's threatening the future of my family and
05:45It's a big mistake
05:54So
05:56You let him choke to death
06:00He begged for help
06:01I did nothing
06:03What, and you've spent all these weeks beating yourself up about it?
06:09If you tell me I'll close my eyes, I'll see his face
06:12Panic, look
06:14He knew he was dying
06:16And I'll let him
06:19Right
06:22There's something you need to know about me, George
06:24And that is, I do not like being kept in the dark
06:27Right, so I'm not going to stand here and be all
06:30Oh, poor George about this
06:32Okay, Eddie
06:33No one liked him
06:34He was dying anyway
06:36I mean, so what if you didn't help him?
06:39Are you so cold?
06:40Because I've learned to be
06:45You came to me
06:46And asked for my help
06:49And told me why
06:51I didn't judge you
06:53I immediately contracted the lawyer
06:56Put money up front
06:59All for the appeal of a man
07:02Knocked down George
07:05What's really going on, Chelsea?
07:07I've told you
07:09I just want to do the right thing
07:12The right thing by Ian Beale?
07:15What about the right thing by me?
07:21Look, I'm really happy to help you
07:24But in return, I'd very much like to spend more time with Jordan
07:31I'm not a secret, Chelsea
07:34I'm his family
07:38You've got to tell him, Gran
07:40He needs the hope
07:41No, no, not yet
07:42Once I know the appeal's going ahead
07:44Well, I'll tell him then
07:49Wait, I don't
07:50Hang on, I don't know
07:51Look, this is your dad we're talking about
07:52All right, you give him hope
07:54And then nothing comes of it
07:57Peter, I'm scared what he'll do
07:59It just gives him something to live for, though, Gran
08:01Well, he has that
08:03He has you, the boys, me
08:05I'm going to go and see him as much as I can
08:07And I'm searching my brain for the most mundane gossip
08:11To take his mind off of where he is
08:13And you've got to do the same
08:15Murray told me you didn't want me to come visit him
08:17Oh, of course he does
08:18And when you do go
08:20Not a word about Chelsea and the appeal, all right?
08:24He needs to think that Chelsea's just focused on Jordan
08:28And she's not bothered about him at all
08:39Has your mum still got the cap?
08:43Er, yeah
08:45She always did a good full English
08:51Some of us don't get visitors
08:54It hurts at first
08:57Somehow I feel like it would
08:59Hurt more getting an hour of escapism
09:01And then returning back to normality
09:04I can't imagine how you survive this place without
09:07Without visitors
09:12Listen
09:12Listen, I was thinking
09:14After you were telling me about Chelsea letting Jordan run into the road
09:18I'm sorry you're being punished for this
09:20It's not all right
09:25It was both our faults
09:29Okay
09:30You tell yourself what you have to
09:33You're in here
09:34Because Chelsea let it happen
09:55Levine, I'm not gonna do anything, all right?
09:57I just wanna talk to you
09:59Please
10:02All I've got is my dad. Yeah, my mum don't want to know.
10:07I changed in Young Offenders, I really did.
10:10But if you say that I can't stay here, I don't know what I'm going to do.
10:14Vicky's given me a second chance.
10:17You know how hard that must be for after what I did?
10:21Now, you've taken me in.
10:23I can't expect you to change the way you think of me.
10:27But I am begging you. Tell them I can stay.
10:32No. You can go to hell for what I can.
10:37Right, is that why you beat my head in, then?
10:41Cos that's what I tell the police.
10:44I mean, you had the most motive, didn't you?
10:46So, that's why you tried to murder me.
10:49Joel, I didn't attack you.
10:51You accept I serve my time.
10:53I keep my mouth shut about everything that happened in the park.
10:56And we just go on living our lives as normal.
11:00Here, in Walford.
11:03Otherwise, like I say, a girl gets her revenge.
11:06Not just any girl, but a daughter of a well-known criminal.
11:12I'm sorry, but you ain't giving me any other choices.
11:21So, what's so important that I've got to drop everything, eh?
11:24Did Grant make an appearance while I was away?
11:26Yeah. Yeah, why?
11:29Sharon, a lot of things happened while he was away.
11:32Yeah, one of them being Grant shacking up with Linda, yeah?
11:36I mean, she's my best mate.
11:37Just like Michelle was your best mate.
11:38Oh, come on, Phil.
11:41Oh, Sharon, it might be better, you know, if you didn't keep running off.
11:44Cos people round here, they care about you.
11:46And you won't want to think about it, you know,
11:48before you start having a go at Linda.
11:53So, what Ian's been saying all this time is right.
11:59You're the reason that Jordan was in the road.
12:01You lied.
12:03You can't make me feel worse than I already do.
12:06I hate myself, OK?
12:09And I didn't just not tell you, I didn't tell anyone
12:12because I have been trying to convince myself it didn't even happen.
12:17You are the one person I have been dreading telling the most
12:21because what you think of me matters the most.
12:27I'm trying, Mum.
12:29I'm trying to do the right thing.
12:30I'm giving a statement and it's helping Ian get out of prison quicker.
12:35But Cathy said she couldn't afford the lawyer to do that.
12:38Well, Cathy's not paying.
12:41Sheila is.
12:43You're letting that woman buy her way into Jordan's life?
12:47She's already part of his life.
12:48Well, Grey's part of his life.
12:53Sheila's got money and she was a lawyer for years.
12:56She knows exactly what is needed to help Ian.
12:59I don't care about...
13:07So what, you knew about this?
13:09Not about Sheila.
13:11Course not.
13:12No.
13:13I'm sorry, Chelsea.
13:13I'm with your mum on this.
13:15You cannot let her get a foothold.
13:18Sheila is not Grey.
13:21She's kind.
13:22And she's caring.
13:23And she's got no one.
13:24And Jordan is her family.
13:26He should spend time with her.
13:30I'm trying to do the right thing.
13:33I am doing the right thing.
13:47Oh, Ian.
13:50Hi, Mum.
13:52How are you coping?
13:54What are you coping?
13:56What are you going to do with your glasses?
13:58I tripped.
14:01Listen, I called Ben.
14:04And he said to keep your head down, but don't back away from the fight.
14:09Because even if you lose, he said you'll get credit for standing your ground.
14:15Mum, I'm in here with murderers and serial killers and...
14:21...and bad people.
14:24Well, hopefully.
14:25You'll be home by Christmas and New Year.
14:28Be a fresh start, will it?
14:30Have you heard from Chelsea?
14:32I mean, why did she get my hopes up like that?
14:34It may not show up in cold.
14:35Yeah, well, you don't need to rely on that now.
14:38You need to focus on yourself.
14:39Mum, she said she was going to change her statement.
14:42Yeah, well, listen.
14:42I want to hear about you, Ian.
14:44Okay?
14:45Are you sleeping all right?
14:46Mum, she promised me.
14:49She's the reason I'm in here.
14:51Well...
14:53What's done's done, innit?
14:55You know, you can't change that.
14:57What's the matter with you?
14:58Don't you care?
14:59Of course I do.
15:00She has done this to me.
15:02Ian, look, stop it, all right?
15:03Don't get yourself upset.
15:11So...
15:12Is food okay?
15:15You know what they were right about?
15:17What they said about visits.
15:20I can't do this.
15:21Where are you going?
15:22I am going back to my new normality, okay, Mum?
15:24I'll...
15:26See you soon.
15:28Ian?
15:28Get back here now!
15:31Ian!
15:37You know, I've, um...
15:39I've been living too long in the past.
15:42Well...
15:42Sometimes it's easier to live in the past than...
15:45facing the present.
15:49Heavy.
15:50Hm.
15:53I told you, didn't I, about...
15:56my dad and how he abused me and my mum
16:00and he didn't stop until the day he died.
16:02Yeah.
16:04There were things you wished you'd said to him, man.
16:07You didn't get closure.
16:10I never wanted closure.
16:13I just wanted him dead.
16:17I'm sorry you had to deal with abuse from him.
16:22At least you escaped from that.
16:25Did you ever escape abuse?
16:28Doesn't it just live...
16:30up here for years?
16:33Let me do it.
16:36You know, um...
16:40There's other things I haven't told you.
16:47My mum...
16:50blamed me...
16:51for, um, before and after he died.
16:58It's easier, I guess, you know?
17:00Blame your gobby daughter rather than the man you loved.
17:06He has been dead over 20 years and...
17:10to my knowledge, she has never even looked at another man.
17:18She called it love.
17:22I call it delusion, you know?
17:24A waste of living.
17:26So...
17:28My motto...
17:29is hurt them...
17:32before they hurt you.
17:34Self-protection.
17:35I'll get that.
17:40I don't wanna be like that with you.
17:43I'll get scared.
17:45You know?
17:46I'm...
17:47afraid that I'm...
17:48no better than Eddie, so...
17:52George, you are never...
17:54gonna turn into Eddie.
17:57Never.
18:00Oh, come here.
18:04Come.
18:09It's over.
18:12I've got you.
18:15I've got you.
18:26What are you looking at? Get lost!
18:31This isn't fair.
18:33Look, I think you're just gonna have to agree to him living there.
18:37That way he's not gonna talk to the police.
18:41Well, don't any of you care?
18:44I think I'm with Denzel.
18:46Just say he can stay, I think he's changed anyway.
18:51You win!
19:00You know, I thought you guys were my friends.
19:06I'm not annoyed you didn't tell me.
19:08It would have been nice if you did.
19:10Sorry.
19:11I suppose I just felt jealous that he was here.
19:14With you.
19:15Does that make sense?
19:17I've missed you.
19:18I've missed you too.
19:20And I know Phil has.
19:22You know, what he went through with Nigel.
19:25He...
19:25He needed people he could lean on.
19:30Mark turned up and...
19:32Grant followed.
19:34I had my own problems.
19:37Going on with Johnny and...
19:40It weren't just about Grant.
19:45I got in my head a lot about Max.
19:50I think...
19:52Look, I needed my mate to talk to and you weren't here.
19:55You know, I had mum in one ear and...
19:57Max trying to prove he could be a good dad to Annie and...
20:02I think I...
20:03I threw myself into something with Grant as a distraction from Max.
20:08Not the frying pan into the fire.
20:09Not pretty much.
20:11Anyway, I am trying to move on from Max, Grant, Mick.
20:18You know, I want to see what happens with Clive.
20:21You know, Max has ruined the lives of every woman he's been in contact with.
20:25I know.
20:27Anyway, he's marrying Cindy now, so...
20:29She deserves him.
20:32I'll be honest.
20:33Whatever it was you had with Max, it's over, isn't it?
20:37Yeah.
20:38Yeah, yeah.
20:40Come here.
20:49That's her.
20:59I was expecting you earlier than this.
21:05How's George?
21:08Embarrassed.
21:09You know what it's like when you've had too much to drink and your mouth runs away with you.
21:14You know, the things you make up and come out with.
21:17Or like the fact that he killed his dad.
21:20He sounded like he was telling the truth to me.
21:24Have you told anyone else?
21:28Just my wife, but we don't have any secrets, so...
21:34Well, the words of a drunken man won't stand up in court, so...
21:39Who said anything about court?
21:42Hey?
21:43Yeah, I don't see any reason that we should tell the police or anyone else, really. Do you, Ziggy?
21:50No. Not at all.
21:53Yeah, we could just keep this as our little secret.
21:57Then, of course, if we do that for you, then...
22:05A CCTV footage.
22:07Do you see the way our minds just, like, connect? It's so poetic.
22:12Yeah, that.
22:13And I would also like you to apologise to my wife for letting your nasty mouth run away with you.
22:21Oh, sucky.
22:23I finally get what you're seeing her.
22:30Okay.
22:32I'll delete the footage.
22:35And...
22:36If you insist...
22:41Then...
22:43I'm sorry.
22:52You know...
22:58Eddie Knight, he...
23:01He really was the worst of men.
23:03Agreed.
23:06I would happily spit on his grave, if that's any consolation.
23:14I'd...
23:18...
23:19I'd...
23:20...
23:31Actually, he...
23:33...
23:34Just...
23:52Hi, Gemma. It's me.
23:56No, nothing's wrong. I was just thinking about you.
24:02Oh, I'm sorry. Is it a crime to think about my sister? Look, how are you doing?
24:15You lucky boy. I love it.
24:19Oh. So, there is a reason why Sheila is here.
24:33Do you remember when I said that you do have a daddy, but he had gone away and wasn't coming
24:43back?
24:43Yeah. Well, he has a family. Sheila is part of his family, which means that she is part of yours
25:00too.
25:02Okay. That means I'm your great-grandmother. And what I'd really like is to be able to come and visit
25:12and spend time with you. Is that okay?
25:15And bring presents. Excuse me. It's not the right attitude, is it, Auntie Kim?
25:23No, it's not. Is that okay?
25:36See? Told you it could find.
25:42Mm. You know, there's something about calm waters. That's where the sharks lurk.
26:09Am I, um... Am I disturbing you?
26:14Good visit? No.
26:17Nah.
26:17No good news.
26:20Nah.
26:21Get used to it.
26:23Oh, thanks. I... I thought...
26:28Never mind.
26:29You thought you had someone in your corner to make things a bit easier.
26:36You could, uh...
26:38Let me guess. That comes at a price?
26:40Everything in here comes at a price.
26:45I've got a proposition for you.
26:47One I think you might like.
27:01I'll look out for you in here.
27:03Keep you safe.
27:05Make things as easy as possible.
27:10And?
27:12Chelsea did us both wrong.
27:14She's not fit to bring up my son.
27:17You are in a position to make her pay.
27:21Am I?
27:22With me guiding you, you are.
27:24Don't you want to get back at her?
27:27One pint.
27:29And you end up in here.
27:30With people like me.
27:32That's not okay.
27:34Well, I've...
27:35I've lost everything.
27:36You know.
27:46Do you know what the best feeling is to wake up to in here?
27:53Revenge.
27:53Are you?
28:22Once we're finished.
