00:23Don't tell me you've tricked me with this one before.
00:26Eight. No, nine.
00:28Technically eight. Pluto was reclassified as a dwarf planet in 2006.
00:32It'll always be a doctor, mate.
00:34Hey, I'm thinking I might not come in today.
00:37My stomach doesn't feel great.
00:38Oh, no. Do you need to go and see someone?
00:40Er, no, I'm sure I'll be fine.
00:42I know you don't want to hear this,
00:44but negative emotions can lead to physical symptoms.
00:46You're right, I don't.
00:47Aren't you meant to be catching your bus?
00:49They're not running today. Leanne says she'll take me.
00:51Ah, right. Trip to the bakery, then, is it?
00:54Well, he's a good lad. They like to spoil him.
00:56That suits me. I'm going to work from home this morning.
00:58Oh, right. Erm...
01:00Do you know what? I might go in, actually.
01:03Everything all right?
01:05Er, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:07You want a roll?
01:08No, no. I mean, no, I just don't want to be getting in his way.
01:11Yeah, it's nothing. Just leave him.
01:12Yeah, besides, I mean, who's going to open up the bistro
01:15if these two are skyrim?
01:16All right, whatever you want to do. Come on, Sam, we'd better go.
01:19Right. See you later. Bye.
01:23You ready?
01:27DOOR SLAMS
01:28This is all too much.
01:30I should never have got in touch.
01:32Well, honey, you did, so, erm...
01:34I'm going to have it out with him.
01:36No, I wouldn't. Getting methanol's going to make things worse,
01:38especially after yesterday.
01:40Gemma's been evicted, Paul's dying, I can't cope.
01:43He's turning my family against me when they need me the most.
01:46Darling, they know you and they will come round.
01:49Well, maybe I should talk to him again, you know,
01:51explain what's going on.
01:53OK, Bernie.
01:54Are you not listening?
01:56Gemma said she, what, needed space?
01:59So I should just do nothing?
02:01So give them space.
02:03Give things time to calm down.
02:04Show them more that you're the reasonable one here, yes?
02:07DOOR SLAMS
02:09Yeah.
02:11He's nothing like James Bond. James Bond's a spy.
02:13Yeah, but he's dead dishy, though.
02:15Bet he'd look good in a tux or trunks
02:17coming out of the sea with a spear gun.
02:19Mum, will you stop it? Kit is a colleague.
02:22I think you should try and be his partner.
02:24I could just see you two, like, stasky and hutch.
02:26I would love to be back in CID, me.
02:29You know, he is exactly the sort of copper that I would want to be.
02:32You're sure better than me.
02:34What?
02:35He's got an offer on Beans. Two for one.
02:37Oh, nice, I love Beans, mate.
02:39Here, I'll put them peas back ready.
02:41There's no point mouthing off.
02:43If you said it yourself, it'll only make things worse.
02:48He's a good-looking fella, really, isn't he?
02:50So, what are you going to do with him?
02:52Put him in the loft till it all blows over.
02:54The loft?
02:56What's wrong with that?
02:57Are you out of your mind?
02:59That's ridiculous. Anyone could find him up there.
03:02Only minute goes in the loft.
03:03Nah.
03:04Now, you need to get rid of him. Permanently.
03:07Chuck him in the canal.
03:09Well, I would, but, you know...
03:12What's wrong now?
03:13Well, someone might see me.
03:15All right.
03:17All right, put him in the bin, then.
03:19Well, then the bin man might see it.
03:22You can't do it, can you?
03:24What do you mean?
03:25After everything he's done to you.
03:27Nobbing your missus in your house, in your marital bed.
03:32You still love Tommy Opington, don't you?
03:34Wash your mouth out. No, I don't. I flippin' hate him.
03:37Go on, then.
03:39Smash him up.
03:40What, now?
03:41Go on.
03:42Smash his cheating face up.
03:45Smash his cheating face in.
03:48All right, I will.
03:50No, I can't.
03:52Dad?
03:57Can I borrow your bag?
03:58What, this bag?
03:59Yeah. I'm going to go to the gym after work.
04:01Erm, no, I'm, er, using it.
04:04What for?
04:06I'm going to put stuff in it.
04:08You never use that bag.
04:09Well, I'm using it today, so get off.
04:11OK. I'll just use a different one.
04:14What's the hammer for?
04:16Erm... hammering?
04:24Listen, you're going to have to sort this out and fast.
04:28Cos if you don't and you get caught,
04:30there'll be a load of county fans in Weatherfield Nick
04:32wanting to have a little word with you.
04:39There you go. Toasted tea cakes.
04:41Thanks, love. Thanks.
04:44Is Roy coming down?
04:46He said he will, but I wouldn't hold out much hope.
04:50Oh.
04:52Ah, Yasmeen.
04:55Lovely to see you.
04:56Ditto, ditto.
04:58How are you feeling?
04:59It'll be good. Yeah, fine.
05:04Something you wanted?
05:05Yes, yes, I...
05:07I have a gift for you from Kathy.
05:10Oh, very kind.
05:11She sends her best wishes.
05:14Lovely.
05:16Erm...
05:17Excuse me, there's something I need to...
05:19I'm sorry.
05:22Oh, well.
05:24I suppose it's progress.
05:25A miracle.
05:27Just keep trying onwards and upwards.
05:31Finally, I was supposed to finish quarter past.
05:34I'm so sorry.
05:35I've got the bacon, the sausages, salad and all the veggie stuff.
05:39I can't stay. Why not? It's your shift.
05:41Yeah, I know, but Lily's sick and she's off school.
05:43David'll look after her. Boys at work.
05:45Can't someone else? There's loads of you.
05:47Yeah, but they're working and Claudia's got a migraine
05:49and Gail's at a live drawing class again.
05:50I just wanted a break.
05:52Well, Bernie's doing the lunchtime shift, isn't she?
05:54No, she's booked the day off.
05:55Look, I've got to go. She's on her own. I'm really sorry.
06:03Peppermint tea.
06:04That's what you need.
06:06I brought you had one.
06:07Hey, how's your stomach?
06:08Yeah, it's getting better, I think.
06:10Oh, good.
06:11So, I was wondering, have you had any more thoughts about the institute?
06:14Not really. Why?
06:16Well, I was just wondering if you fancied one of the in-person seminars.
06:19They're really good.
06:20I don't know. Might just watch a few more videos first.
06:23Oh, right. Well, that's fine. That's fine.
06:25I'll send you some links.
06:26Yeah.
06:27Oh! Are you OK?
06:30I don't know.
06:31Right, come on, get yourself down to the medical centre now.
06:33Oh, come on, they're not going to have any appointments, are they?
06:35Tanya, this is an emergency.
06:36No, it's fine. I'll just go home. I'll have a lie down.
06:39Well, do you want me to come with you?
06:41No, no, I'll be fine. Can you...?
06:43Oh, sorry. I'll go.
06:45Sorry about that.
06:46I've got my bag.
06:47Mm.
06:50Oh!
06:52Them steps, they kill me every time.
06:56Huh. Use the stairlift, if you like.
06:59Can I?
07:00Yeah, of course.
07:01Oh, Ta, I have always wanted to go on that.
07:04How fast does it go?
07:05Not fast enough when he's hungry and he needs his tea.
07:09I take it he's filled you in?
07:10Mm.
07:11About Kate?
07:13Yeah, yeah. Can't believe it.
07:14Another flippin' brother.
07:15Yeah, a cop.
07:17Mm.
07:18Could come in handy, though.
07:20Like, if we were to get nicked or out like that.
07:23It's good that you're focusing on the positives.
07:25Yeah, unlike Mam.
07:27Did he tell you she chucked her remote at him?
07:29He could have arrested her. She totally lost her head.
07:32Why would she do that?
07:34Well, she thinks he's stirring up trouble for her.
07:37He was only telling the truth.
07:40Yeah, exactly.
07:43I can't believe she gave him away when he was just a baby.
07:46Couldn't never do that with any of my kids.
07:48No matter how bad things got.
07:51There must be some explanation.
07:54Yeah, that she don't care, she never has.
07:56No, that's not true.
07:57We hardly even saw her when we were kids.
07:59Isn't that right, Paul?
08:00Yeah.
08:01Still, it must have been terrible for her to have to give up a child.
08:06Terrible for Kit.
08:08She still did it, though.
08:09Well, maybe you should speak to her.
08:12Find a reason she's still your mum.
08:14No.
08:15She'll try and spin it, make out like she's the victim.
08:18Right, she always does.
08:21I am gonna meet him later, you know.
08:24We're gonna go for a few beers and I'm gonna get to know him better.
08:26Do you want to come?
08:27Yeah, sure.
08:29Do you think maybe you should invite Bernie?
08:31What, so she can chuck something else at him? No chance.
08:34She might just feel a little bit left out.
08:36Oh, like he was his whole life!
08:44You can go into work if you like, I don't mind.
08:46Oh, no, it's fine, honestly.
08:47She's really poorly, it wouldn't be fair.
08:49What are you up to?
08:51Well, I've just got the credit card statement through
08:53from the magazine I used to work for.
08:54Oh, right, and?
08:56And I was hoping that this would prove
08:58I didn't buy all the stuff they're saying I did.
09:00So you really didn't do it?
09:02No, of course I didn't.
09:03Well, I won't blame you.
09:04I mean, company credit card, who'd notice?
09:07Erm, the company.
09:08But these are all online purchases.
09:10Oh, yeah, so they'll be delivery addresses.
09:12Yeah, but I've rang the few and none of them have got the address out.
09:16What about that one?
09:17Erm, yes, again, online purchase.
09:20You really need to listen.
09:21Yeah, but that's the supermarket, is that?
09:23So?
09:24So it might have been a click and collect.
09:25You know, they might be CCTV.
09:27Oh, yeah, that's a good idea.
09:29Right, I'll ring them and see if they've got any footage.
09:34Oh, hey, er, wasn't expecting you back.
09:37Erm, yeah, I'm not feeling great.
09:39Oh, sorry. Look, er, why don't I go to Roy's and I can work from there?
09:44No, no, no, it's fine, no, you can stay.
09:47You sure?
09:48Yeah, it'd be nice to have some company.
09:50You'll miss it when you move out.
09:52Yeah, I will.
09:54Can I get you anything?
09:56No, I'm all right, I'll probably just have a bit of a lie down.
09:59What about some tomato soup? Sam swears by it.
10:01Says it cures all illnesses known to man.
10:03I suppose he is a genius.
10:05Great, I'll pop up and get you some money, just to relax you.
10:08Yeah, thanks, Nick.
10:10Well, someone's got to look after you.
10:20Oh!
10:22Er... Nick?
10:26Nick?
10:28Nick?
10:52Oh!
10:58Oh, God!
11:01I've just forgot my wallet.
11:02Nick!
11:05Are you OK?
11:06Nick, it hurts really bad in my stomach.
11:08It really hurts.
11:09OK, try and get up. Try and sit here.
11:10Come on.
11:11OK.
11:12OK.
11:14Oh!
11:15We need to get you to hospital.
11:16Oh!
11:17It's all right, it's all right, I'm here.
11:21Oh!
11:22Mmm!
11:23Talk about bad publicity.
11:25It's on the front page of the Gazette.
11:27After everything that man has done for county.
11:29Who'd do something like that?
11:31Some idiot.
11:35It's all over the papers now.
11:36Are you kidding?
11:38Have they got any suspects?
11:39I don't know.
11:40But they'd have got it on CCTV, wouldn't they?
11:42I was careful.
11:44Well, it don't matter if you're found with it, you're done for.
11:46Why'd I walk out of prison? You need to help me.
11:48Well, give it back here, give it to Debbie now.
11:51I can't just fess up.
11:52Well, say sorry, they might be lenient on you.
11:55I can't risk it.
11:56Let's go and bury it in your garden.
11:58You're joking, are you? I'm already an accessory.
12:00I'm not going to make things worse by burying it in my garden.
12:03And what am I going to do, then?
12:04Oh!
12:06I've got an idea.
12:08How do you feel about role-play?
12:13Yes, I have heard of data protection, actually.
12:16Ah, good, you're back. Can I go to work now, please?
12:18No, I've just bobbed back from my butty, that's all.
12:20I'm bombed at work with Granny's.
12:22Blue Rinse Brigade.
12:23Oh, well, thanks for all your help. Enjoy your day.
12:27No joy.
12:28I have called every supermarket, cafe, kebab shop on that list
12:32and nobody will help me.
12:33Oh, is this about that money you nicked?
12:34It wasn't me.
12:36I want to help you.
12:38Data protection, too much effort to trawl through the CCTV,
12:41put it in writing, blah, blah, blah.
12:42But this is a crime.
12:43Yes, I know it's a crime, I've said that,
12:45but they're not interested.
12:47So what are you going to do?
12:48What can I do?
12:49Well, you're not paying it back cos you haven't spent it.
12:51I haven't got the money to, anyway.
12:54I'll just tell the magazine that, then.
12:55Yeah, I know they don't come after you for it.
13:01Oh, so you're the new Columbo, are you?
13:05Got something you want to confess to?
13:07Oh, only having a killer body.
13:09I'll take your word for it.
13:10Well, maybe you should take down my particulars.
13:14Very funny.
13:15Hey, your son's a copper as well, you know, Craig Tinker.
13:19Have you heard of him? Craigie?
13:21Yeah, I've met Craig.
13:23Are you CID, then?
13:25I am.
13:26Oh, it's cos he did a placement there and he really enjoyed it.
13:29It's a laugh a minute. Yeah.
13:31Hey, do you think you could put a word in?
13:32You know, get him a transfer?
13:34Cos he's like that, it's what he really wants to do.
13:36That's not how it works, unfortunately.
13:38Yeah, but I bet you could say something.
13:41And if you do, I won't tell my Kirky
13:44that you were coming on to me.
13:46Sorry.
13:47Hiya!
13:48You still up for a drink later?
13:49Sure.
13:50Hey, when? I'll come.
13:51Oh, no, you can't, sorry. It's family only.
13:55Hey, are you two related?
13:57I can't see that at all.
13:59I'm her brother.
14:01How's that work?
14:02Well, my mam's his mam.
14:05She never is.
14:16Roy, I'm really sorry to have to ask,
14:18but please could you come and help me in the cafe?
14:21No, I'm sorry, I don't think I can.
14:25It's just I was supposed to finish hours ago
14:27and I've still not had my break yet.
14:28What about Shona?
14:29She's not coming in cos Lily's ill.
14:31Well, Bernie, doesn't she normally work at this time?
14:33I don't know, a family crisis or something.
14:36Alex, then?
14:38I rung him and he's on a five-day bender in Amsterdam.
14:41I don't know what to suggest.
14:44I do. Put your pinny on and come down and help me.
14:47I'm not up to it.
14:49I know you've had a tough time,
14:50but hiding away in here's not going to help you.
14:52I'm not hiding.
14:53Right, what are you doing, then?
14:56Recuperating.
14:58OK, we'll come and do that downstairs.
15:01Well, I'm sorry, but I really would rather not.
15:06Listen, you don't have to serve anyone.
15:08You can just do some cooking in the back
15:10or, I don't know, clear some tables or something.
15:13I'm not ready.
15:17SHE SIGHS
15:21You can go if you like.
15:23No, no. I want to stay.
15:28Are you feeling pain?
15:30Yeah.
15:32Well, what do you think it is, an ulcer?
15:36Yeah, maybe.
15:40You've had a lot of stress, haven't you?
15:43You know, roves and meat.
15:46That is true.
15:52There's so many things I want to say.
15:57I know I can't.
16:00I understand.
16:03So, hey, let's just enjoy these moments, shall we?
16:06You and me, you know?
16:09A lot of ill people.
16:10Smell of bleach.
16:16Thanks very much. Enjoy your day.
16:19Oh, sorry about that.
16:21I've been so busy today, full-on.
16:23I've been on my own. I've been right busy, Miss Lizzie.
16:25It's no problem.
16:26Actually, I wanted to ask you about my malware session tomorrow.
16:29Sure. What do you want to know?
16:31Well, er... What is it?
16:34It's something we all do at this stage.
16:36Nothing to worry about.
16:38Right. So, what happens?
16:41You'll be engaging with other members.
16:44You'll be engaging with other members,
16:46assessing how far you've come, how strong you are.
16:50Right, and that's it?
16:51Pretty much. You'll breeze through it.
16:53Oh! Sorry I'm late. I'll make my time up.
16:56Oh, no, it's OK. Don't worry about it.
16:59What's got you in such good mood?
17:00Nothing. Just being positive.
17:03Well, Leanne was telling me you might be interested in joining us.
17:06Might be. Thinking about it.
17:08That's great. And there's no rush.
17:10The Institute isn't for everyone.
17:13But those that do join us tend to really get a lot from it.
17:17Er, Leanne, where have you been?
17:19Er, here. Why?
17:21Just Nick's been trying to ring you.
17:22Oh. Oh, my phone's in the office. Why? What's happened?
17:26Er, it's Toya. She's in hospital.
17:32Oh! Well, am I glad to see you.
17:35Right. How come?
17:36Look, I know you've booked the day off,
17:38but is there any chance you could just work for a few hours?
17:41Oh, sorry, love. Me head's not right.
17:43I've got family stuff going on. Can we have two coffees, please?
17:47What's the problem?
17:48It's just I was meant to finish my shift hours ago,
17:50and, well, I am knackered.
17:52If you started at eight, that's only half a day.
17:54Yeah, you know, there's some people in the world
17:56that actually work, like, full days, man.
17:58Yes. I learned a bit of a late one last night.
18:00Oh, you're feeling a bit ropey.
18:02No, you see, that's the folly of youth.
18:03You remember those days, not a care in the world,
18:05drinking till the early hours.
18:07You still do that now?
18:08I know, and I never miss work.
18:10Aren't you the great big action hero?
18:12Yes, I am.
18:14That'll be £2.50, then, please.
18:16Oh, don't forget my staff discount.
18:18£2.25, then, please.
18:19Okey-dokey.
18:27Hey. You're a dark horse, aren't you?
18:30Why? What have I done now?
18:32Secret sun. You kept that from everyone.
18:35Oh, what's this?
18:36Oh, that new copper kit. She's his mum.
18:39Well, I wasn't expecting that.
18:41So, come on, then. What's the story?
18:44None of your business, Beth.
18:46All right. I was only asking.
18:48Yeah, Kit's my son.
18:49And it's been really good getting to know him
18:51after all these years.
18:52Hey, tell me what. I'd like to get to know him.
18:56Are you with Kirk?
18:57Yeah, but just cos I bought some work,
18:59I can still browse the shelves.
19:02Anyway, I hope you have a nice family get-together later on.
19:05We will.
19:06Oh, and put a good word in for us, eh?
19:07See if you can get our Craigie into CID.
19:09Come on, Beth. Leave these nice people alone
19:11and get some art, will you?
19:13Oh, yes, I will have a full English breakfast, please.
19:26What are you walking like that for?
19:28I'm just keeping a lookout, aren't I?
19:30What? Since when did the delivery man need to keep a lookout?
19:32I'm just being careful.
19:33It's like you're a spy film or something.
19:35It's not normally.
19:37You know, you're a delivery man, Chester. I'm proud.
19:41That's better.
19:43What now?
19:45I'm just gonna leave it there.
19:47Right, let's go.
19:50He's doing two farewell lunches here.
19:52Ooh, chicken wings.
19:53Are you out of your mind?
19:54I'm hungry.
19:55We've got to go. Come on.
19:56Right, get in.
19:57All right, lads. Did you leave that box?
20:00Yeah, it's just delivery that, mate.
20:03Who's it for?
20:04Erm, events.
20:05Oh, I'll need a name, really, fella.
20:08There was no name on it.
20:10All right, then, just wait there a second.
20:11I'll check in with the boss.
20:12You can't bang around here all day, pal.
20:14Sorry, lads, there's a procedure.
20:16Health and safety.
20:17Think there could be anything in that box.
20:19Fine, we'll take it, then.
20:20What, will we? Yeah.
20:22Oh, hello, boys.
20:23What are you two doing here,
20:25all dressed up like lollipop men?
20:27They dropped that box off, boss.
20:28Yeah, we've got a sideline at Streetcars.
20:31We just do a bit of delivery now and again.
20:33Yeah, good idea, yeah.
20:34The money's to be made in that.
20:36Only there was no address on that.
20:39It's just a round...
20:40Yeah, we'd better go now, anyway.
20:57Is it in this room?
20:58Yes.
21:00Are you sure it's ours? I've done everything.
21:02Well, you haven't clearly done everything, have you?
21:04Right, I give up.
21:06Radiator valve.
21:08Oh, come off it. You cannot have that.
21:10What? That's part of the radiator.
21:13That should have been V for valve, not R.
21:15You are unbelievable.
21:16Mm, unbelievably good at this game.
21:19Right, come on.
21:21Your go.
21:22I can't believe how long these tests are taking.
21:25Do you want me to go and get someone?
21:28Yeah, maybe. Can't stand any more ice by.
21:31Tanya, I am so sorry. I didn't see my phone.
21:34It's OK, don't worry. What's happened?
21:36She collapsed at the flat. They're just running some tests.
21:39Well, have they said anything, what it might be?
21:41Not yet.
21:43And have you got pain?
21:44No, it's better.
21:45She still sips the eyeballs on painkillers.
21:48Mrs Habib, how are you feeling?
21:51Yeah, all right. Improving, I think.
21:54Good. I've got the test results.
21:56Are you happy for me to...?
21:58Oh, yeah, they're family. Yeah, that's fine.
22:00Well, it's good news, potentially.
22:03You're pregnant.
22:04Congratulations.
22:05SHE GASPS
22:10Um...
22:12MUSIC PLAYS
22:25Pregnant?
22:27When was your last period?
22:29Um, I don't know, like, three, four weeks ago?
22:34I can't be.
22:35The blood results will take a while
22:37and I'm booking you in for an ultrasound.
22:39It's too early to see the pregnancy,
22:40but with your abdominal pain, I think it's good to take a look.
22:43OK. Yeah, um...
22:45Thank you.
22:50To our little bro, the big licks, come back!
22:52Which means that you and my husband
22:55are now part of the establishment.
22:57All of everyone.
22:59THEY LAUGH
23:00Oh, hello, look here.
23:02Oh, it's Detective Constable Green to you.
23:06So you might want to show me a bit more respect. Thank you.
23:09He's armed and dangerous.
23:12Extremely dangerous. Notebook, check.
23:14Walkie-talkie, check.
23:15Well, what about a phone?
23:17Stun gun?
23:19I'm non-uniform. They don't let me have one.
23:21Aw.
23:22Hey, do you ever put that blue light on?
23:24You know, if you're dying for a wazz or you want a mackies.
23:27If I can have it confirmed, I'll deny it.
23:29SHE LAUGHS
23:30Oh, I wish I could zap our landlord with a stun gun.
23:33Don't even joke about it.
23:34Yeah, terrible having an eviction over you.
23:38Paul's in a worse position.
23:39Hey, it's not a competition.
23:43Your bro, he's the bravest man you'll ever meet.
23:46I can see that.
23:48I just wish I met him sooner.
23:49I just wish we'd never separated in the first place.
23:57Don't go quiet on my account.
24:00We're not.
24:01Right, so, same again for this lot and two halves of lager, please, Jenny.
24:04Mm-hm. Is it a... Is it a family gathering?
24:07That's right.
24:08Yeah, cos I couldn't help but overhear,
24:09so Kit the copper is Bernice?
24:12Yeah, he is indeed. Yeah.
24:15Well, thanks for the invite.
24:17You're here now, and I'm glad.
24:19Maybe this was a chance to build some bridges, maybe.
24:22Right, so Jenny's bringing the drinks round.
24:24Sit down, darling.
24:26It's a family gathering.
24:34Yeah, yeah, it was just lying there on the pavement, like, you know, dead, dead surreal.
24:38In that box?
24:39Yeah. So, you know, cut to operation, get Tommy back to the Echaria Hotel.
24:44Pronto. Pronto.
24:46And where exactly did you find it?
24:49Erm, on that bit of wasteland next to the British Legion.
24:53On the pavement next to it.
24:55So someone went to all that trouble of robbing it
24:58just to dump it next door?
25:00Some people are as thick as pudding, love.
25:02Oh, yeah.
25:05Right, well, I, er, I'd best let the club know.
25:09They'll be chuffed, won't they, sir?
25:11It's all back in one piece.
25:14Right, well, coolio. Better get back on the switch.
25:16Yeah, well, I've got an airport run at two, so I'd better...
25:19Boys, why don't you grab a seat and take the weight off your personalities?
25:22I'll get you a couple of cappuccinos, yeah?
25:25That'll give you time to work on your story.
25:27Or, fair sort, that you robbed it.
25:29I never robbed it.
25:31Stitches get stitches.
25:32I'm not in the flaming Mafia.
25:36Hi, could you put me through to comms, please?
25:39It's Debbie Webster here from the Chariot Square Hotel.
25:44Regarding the stolen bust of Tommy Orpington...
25:50Bust. Bust.
25:55So?
25:57What?
25:58The million-dollar question, who's the father?
26:01I can't believe you're asking me that.
26:02Oh, I'm sorry, my free and single sister gets pregnant.
26:05I can't believe you can't believe I'm asking.
26:07It's irrelevant.
26:08Oh, well, I'm sure he'd be thrilled to hear that.
26:11I reckon he would.
26:12Oh, do you know what, Tyra, actually? Why should you know?
26:15Oh, what am I, the Weatherfield bike?
26:17No, I didn't mean it like that.
26:19Sorry, sorry, I just heard myself sound like some mad Victorian throwback.
26:23It's forgotten.
26:25Oh, Tyra, you can have a baby.
26:27It's all you ever hoped for.
26:29And he's going to be so loved.
26:30Nick, please, will you stop pacing up and down?
26:32There's a chair there.
26:34He hates hospitals.
26:35It was a one-night stand.
26:36Oh, well, hats off to him and his little swimmers, eh?
26:40Ah, all that IVF, all that hoping and waiting,
26:45and now out of the blue...
26:50..all of it was a one-night stand.
26:52I know.
26:54He's your local, then, Mr Supersperm.
26:56OK, come on, like, just don't push her, OK?
26:59No, sorry.
27:00You don't know him.
27:02Right.
27:04But I, um...
27:05Are you going to tell him? You know, assuming you're keeping it.
27:08Sorry, too many questions.
27:09Yeah, well, I might not get to make that decision, Leigh,
27:11not if this pain keeps up.
27:12Hey, come on, you've got to stay positive, it'll be fine.
27:16We'll be here for you, me and Nick, won't we?
27:19Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.
27:23They are not remotely interested in the truth, just the bottom line.
27:26At least you tried your best.
27:28Two weeks they have given me to come up with this money,
27:30otherwise they're taking me to a small claims court.
27:32I hate all that data protection stuff.
27:34Oh, well, at the end of the day, I am a total stranger
27:37asking them for a favour that involves a bit of hard work.
27:39I could hear them losing the will.
27:41Well, why don't you try again?
27:43You never know, next time you might get someone more helpful.
27:45No, I think my time would be better spent ringing round for a loan.
27:53I wasn't trying to get my version in first.
27:56I just wanted you to see what was going on at the time.
27:59Do you think maybe you had a bit of postnatal depression?
28:02I mean, that is quite common.
28:04Maybe.
28:05I knew I'd made a terrible mistake if you read the letters, you'd see.
28:09And the number of times I wanted to ask the social worker
28:11if I could get you back.
28:13You wanted to, but you never quite managed it, right?
28:17As I knew deep down, I couldn't cope.
28:20You're already settled with a new family.
28:22My wonderful mum and dad.
28:25God, you were pleased with such good people.
28:27Actually, I thank the social worker, but, yeah, the best.
28:31And for years, I wish I could forget about you.
28:34Would have made life easier.
28:37But your lovely little innocent face kept haunting me.
28:42Mum, I can't get my head round this.
28:44I know what it's like to be bone-tired, ready to drop.
28:48I thought I'd give you one of them a week.
28:50You were amazing with the quad squad and I am in awe of you,
28:53but you've had support, Gemma.
28:56I had no-one.
28:59Literally no-one.
29:00I do get that. It might have been hard.
29:03Oh, you do?
29:04Well, that's good.
29:06You hear that, darling?
29:08The thing is, Mum,
29:10you should have told us years ago.
29:14Decades.
29:16I've got months left.
29:20You robbed us, man.
29:22I'm so sorry.
29:24I'm a coward.
29:27I'm a disgrace.
29:31Gerv, you should take her back to yours.
29:32Look, if you'd just let me try and explain...
29:35Do you know what? I think I'd probably leave it there for today, Bernie.
29:42Come on, love. Let's get you home.
29:47Is everything all right?
30:01I can't look, me.
30:03Is she grassing us up?
30:04Us?
30:06I was... You know, what's it to the fact I'm smiling?
30:10I... Yeah, I'm smiling.
30:12Smiling.
30:14Smiling.
30:16Oh, maybe we're home and dry.
30:18Oh, you know what? We have to stop grassing us up. Class act.
30:22You know what? I'd have a go, but, er, I need to make a move.
30:26She's squashing like a moth.
30:28Shut up.
30:30Oh, incoming. Tummy on.
30:32Early, tummy.
30:34It's him?
30:35Right, I'm paraphrasing here, but long story short,
30:39you found it by the Legion car park?
30:42Correct. Bob on. You two?
30:44Yeah, and they recognised you immediately.
30:47Yeah, well, I'd never forget that face.
30:49Awkward. Anyway, they, er, very carefully shoved you in a box
30:54and brought you back safe and sound.
30:57Right.
30:59Yeah, count it till we die.
31:01Scans do help for me. Go, scan.
31:04Right, there we go, then. All's well that ends well.
31:08I'll, er, let the police know I've been found, then.
31:12Smashing. Oh, and by two county fans.
31:16One county fan.
31:18Scans do.
31:20Erm, I'll get the box.
31:23You must be really worried. I mean, this is pretty big.
31:27I'm OK. I'm just, you know, thinking things through, so...
31:30Well, you know, people surprise you.
31:32I mean, maybe the father wants to be involved.
31:36I know many an alpha male who coat-gag her over a baby.
31:40OK, look, er, do you need any clothes to her?
31:43I don't know, underwear, something like that?
31:45Oh, yeah. She really wants her brother-in-law
31:47rifling through her smalls. Listen, I'll go and get everything.
31:50And I'll go and get you some nice food.
31:52Yeah, that'd be great, Lee. Well, happy to be of use.
31:55Right, see you in a bit. Thanks.
32:01OK, straight question. Of course it's yours.
32:06Yeah, I knew that. Sorry?
32:09No, look, I'm the one that should be sorry, and...
32:12And I am, I'm sorry for stressing you out, but...
32:16..I've spent years having IVF.
32:21Yeah, I understand.
32:23It's just such a mess, isn't it?
32:26This could be my last chance to have a baby.
32:28Do you understand that?
32:34Yeah.
32:36It just makes it ten times harder.
32:40Not for me.
32:43I'm keeping it.
32:59You're a brutally honest appearance. That takes guts.
33:01I hope your kids never look at you the way mine have just looked at me.
33:04Kit, darling, listen, Kit, you're so hurt
33:06that you can't see your feet straight,
33:08and Gemma, they just need time.
33:10Which is why I need to see them on my own.
33:12Darling, what you need right now is to rest.
33:14I think I'm a good mum at the moment.
33:16You're a wonderful mum. You're a wonderful grandmother too.
33:19Thanks for saying that.
33:21And I get it, I get it that he's angry,
33:23but trying to turn Gemma and Paul against me, well, that's just low.
33:26It is, it really is. OK, now, listen, baby, you need to go home, OK?
33:29Get the kettle on, you put on your favourite meditation table,
33:32just need to check into a shop and I'll be with you in five, OK?
33:35Go. Go.
33:39Hey, Craig.
33:42Come here.
33:44A word to the wise.
33:46Be careful around your new colleague, Kit.
33:49What? He seems pretty cool, you know.
33:51What's he done?
33:53Well, let's just say he can be rather ruthless.
33:55Yeah, well, you need a bit of that in our business.
33:57Can you be more specific?
33:59Oh, what's this? Oat juicy?
34:01Dev reckons Kit's a wrong'un.
34:03What makes you say that?
34:06Spill your guards.
34:08Look, I think you're worrying over nothing, mate.
34:11He seems sound.
34:15Oh, that was weird.
34:17Oh, it's never good when Bobo goes, hmm.
34:19So, anyway,
34:21your sexy sarge is Bernie Winter's abandoned kid.
34:27What? No chance.
34:29Gospel truth. She gave him up for adoption when he was in nappies.
34:32She's kept it quiet all these years.
34:36SHE SIGHS
34:41Look, um...
34:43I get you're going to keep the baby.
34:47You'll be a wonderful mum.
34:49Thanks.
34:51I'll try my best.
34:53I hope you realise I can't make a quick decision.
34:58What do we do?
35:00Keep it from Leanne forever, or stay in Weatherfield?
35:03You and I live with this guilty secret.
35:06Business as usual.
35:09You and the baby move away.
35:13Whatever happens,
35:15someone gets hurt.
35:18Hey, Toya, just to let you know,
35:20your ultrasound's booked for in the morning.
35:22Oh, right. Thanks very much.
35:33The truth is...
35:38..I don't know what to do.
35:44I don't know what to do.
35:48And the last thing you need is me reminding you that there's a clock ticking.
35:52But, Nick, there is a clock ticking.
36:04Ah! Lifesaver.
36:06Oh, no worries, girl's got Lily's. Bernie on a break?
36:09She pulled out and she's not coming in tomorrow either.
36:12How come? I don't know, David.
36:14But she wouldn't ask if it wasn't important.
36:16Now, what can I get you?
36:18Extra hot latte, please, to go.
36:20And when I say hot, I mean hotter than hell.
36:23Roy needs to come out of his hibernation soon.
36:25Ah, no change, then?
36:27I've been upstairs, practically begged him to come down,
36:29but he's just not himself.
36:31What, he actually refused to help you?
36:33Yeah, he's not coming down from that flat any time soon.
36:36Shall I go up and have a word?
36:38No, I'd just leave him to it.
36:40Why don't you call his bluff?
36:42Stick a clothesline in the window. That'll smoke him out.
36:45It's not a game, David. He likes being holed up in his own little world.
36:49That'll teach me for sticking up a sister up.
36:54Just the person. Ask me if I've got news.
36:57I hate this game. Obviously you've got news.
37:00Oh, charming. Well, since you couldn't be bothered to do another ring-around,
37:03yours truly had to step up.
37:05And?
37:06And Dave from Rest In Pizza in Leicester,
37:09a.k.a. my new Bessie, has agreed to take another look at CCTV.
37:12You're a star.
37:14Yep, a quattro stagioni at 7pm.
37:16Might be the world's most expensive pizza. Who knew?
37:19Tell you what, take a seat. I'll bring your brew over.
37:24I'd listen, empathise and then use some reverse psychology.
37:30I can be very persuasive.
37:32Well, it's like he doesn't care any more.
37:34I've tried and tried, but it's just like the lights have gone out.
37:37You know what they say about desperate times.
37:39Desperate measures.
37:41Yeah, like what, though? I've no idea.
37:44But I'm sure if we all worked together,
37:46we could come up with something to jolt him out of this fog of depression.
37:53Tea, one sec.
37:59I can just come.
38:00OK.
38:03How's Toya?
38:04Er, yeah, yeah, she's OK. It's all been a bit scary.
38:07And how are your resilience levels?
38:09Er, yeah, good. Good, thank you.
38:11I'm hoping Amy will be joining our ranks soon.
38:15We need intelligent young women.
38:17Oh, I'll take that.
38:18Nah, Amy's a diamond.
38:19Listen, I might need you to lock up later on, OK?
38:21Yeah, no problems.
38:22Interesting chat, Amy. I hope we'll have more.
38:29You were right to spot her potential.
38:31No, she's always been a great kid.
38:33Oh, sorry.
38:34Oh, it's just Toya.
38:36She wants a Kindle and an eye mask.
38:39She sounds fairly chipper.
38:40Er, yeah.
38:42Listen, you won't tell anyone, will you, Bob?
38:45She's pregnant.
38:46Oh.
38:49You sound surprised.
38:51I didn't realise she had a partner.
38:53Well, no, she doesn't.
38:55She said it was from a one-night stand, which really isn't like her.
38:58But she's had loads of IVF over the years,
39:00so I'm struggling to get my head around it, to be honest.
39:03Listen, I'm sorry, I'd better go and get her stuff.
39:06I'll see you later.
39:11I can't believe yous took her back.
39:13I mean, why rob it in the first place?
39:15Well, we did what I'm trawling through the CCTV, did we?
39:18Yeah, and then you get collared by Kevin's sister.
39:22Smooth operators, aren't you, eh?
39:24Go on, what's funnier could do in a lap?
39:26Oh, these two clowns here.
39:29You'd have to be there.
39:31Oh, all right.
39:33I was just writing her wrong, anyway.
39:35I was doing it as a favour for him.
39:37Doing it as an apology for deserting me on my 50th birthday?
39:41That must be the 50th time you've mentioned your flipping 50th.
39:44It was a landmark, eh?
39:46A millstone.
39:47A millstone.
39:48A millstone's something you wear around your neck.
39:50It drags you down.
39:51Funny, that.
39:53Oh, very nice.
39:54I think I prefer a big 40, though.
40:00You all right?
40:02Look, I'll keep it short.
40:04Two season tickets.
40:06It's bad enough you've lost Tracy.
40:08Don't lose the team you've loved all your life.
40:10Are you, er... are you stopping for a drink, Tommy?
40:13No, thanks.
40:14Er, I'm getting off, so, er...
40:16Oh.
40:17You're an officer and a gentleman, Tommy-o, that's what you are.
40:20You're an officer and a gentleman.
40:23I'll, er...
40:27They're mine. Get real.
40:28Mine, or else I'll tell Wethy County
40:30how you both robbed them in the first place.
40:32It was you two houses and the idiot that took it back.
40:34Tell her.
40:35What?
40:36No chance.
40:37You're an officer and a gentleman, Tommy-o,
40:40and that's what you're a gentleman.
40:48Hey, er, Sam's at David's.
40:51Yeah, he texted.
40:56Hey, little sis.
40:57I've got you everything you need.
40:59Oh, you're a lifesaver. Thank you.
41:01That's OK.
41:02Right, I have got you
41:04some little cans of ginger ale.
41:07Oh.
41:08Er, there's, oh, some tangerines
41:10and some Lancordial.
41:12Oh.
41:13And I got you some, er, hair drops
41:15to shred the roof of your mouth.
41:17And good old Weather Gazette.
41:20And if you can bear the excitement,
41:22spoiler alert, there's going to be a new bus lane.
41:24Oh, thanks, Lee.
41:27I'm sorry, I'm really worried about you.
41:29There's no need to be.
41:30Listen, I could tell the Father if you want.
41:33Lee!
41:34What? It's only Nick. He's one of the girls.
41:37Erm, look, who's going to lock up the bistro?
41:40Oh, don't worry about that. It's all sorted.
41:43Look, I'm sorry to nag, but...
41:45there's no way you and the Father...
41:47No, there's no way, OK?
41:49It's OK.
41:50Well...
41:52I just want you to know that me and Nick, we got your back.
42:01All right, how's it going?
42:03Yeah, fine.
42:04Oh, drumroll.
42:06You and Gemma, brother and sister, eh?
42:09That's right.
42:10Good news travels fast.
42:12Bit of a shock, eh?
42:14You know, a bit of a bolt from the blue.
42:17I didn't realise I'd have such an effect on you.
42:19Well, it's just I always thought Bernie just had the two kids.
42:22You know, Paul and Gemma.
42:24Right.
42:25I can see how it'll blow your mind.
42:27It's all good.
42:28I guess it means that Gemma's got an ally.
42:33She's got another brother.
42:35It's just Bruce, the shoe shop owner.
42:37Well, he was proper good for her.
42:39And you spoke to him.
42:41If you've got something to say, Craig, spit it out.
42:45I'm just riffing.
42:47Well, this is riveting.
42:49But I'm gonna miss my tram.
42:57Nicholas.
42:59What's with deep and meaningfuls?
43:03Are you all right? Has something happened?
43:04Yeah, something has happened.
43:06What, are you ill?
43:07No, I'm pretty sick, maybe.
43:09You fancy a pint?
43:10No.
43:11Well, what's up?
43:14Don't judge me.
43:16I'm not in a position to judge, am I?
43:18Might as well just spit it out.
43:19I mean, Earth's gonna carry on spinning.
43:21We're just little insignificant specks of dust
43:23running here for a nanosecond.
43:24How's that for reassurance?
43:25Right.
43:26Toy's pregnant. It's mine.
43:29You know that?
43:33Yeah, I know.
43:36Was she keeping it?
43:37Yeah.
43:39What do you want?
43:40Well, it's a million-dollar question, isn't it?
43:42Time machine'd be good.
43:44Then what am I gonna do?
