Transcript
00:30What's he doing here?
00:38Ask your dad.
00:39I'm asking you.
00:40I didn't have any choice, alright. He'd had a skinful.
00:45So you invite them over for a sleepover?
00:47He was drunk. And he was upset. I didn't know what else to do.
00:50Have you gone absolutely mental?
00:51Morning.
00:52Is it?
00:53Yes, it is.
00:54I've just come and got the last of my stuff.
01:06Freshly laundered and neatly folded.
01:08Thanks.
01:09Maybe we could go and get a coffee?
01:14I'm busy. I've stuck the kettle on here. I've not got time.
01:16Oh, Nicky, please. There's some things I really want to talk to you about.
01:19It wouldn't hurt to spare a few minutes for your mum.
01:23If there's one thing I've learned, it's to make time for family.
01:27The opportunity might not always be there.
01:30Yeah, I suppose I could spare a few minutes.
01:38Drop an action, man. You, eh?
01:40Shouldn't you be doing a few of those?
01:42And get yourself some guns?
01:45It's dangerous on you.
01:47Always scurrying around, hoping nobody notices you.
01:49Staff always in and out of here.
01:51Something weird about you.
01:53I mean, do you not reckon, action, man, eh?
01:56A bit such, this one.
02:03Well, the conversation's riveting in here, eh?
02:05Did you want something?
02:06Yeah, just chatting.
02:08Yeah.
02:10Well, I don't think anyone's interested.
02:12Not me, anyway.
02:14Is that right?
02:16Off you pop, then.
02:19What's her story with him, anyway?
02:22I won't tell you again.
02:36They've confirmed she had a heart attack.
02:38Poor Laurel.
02:39She had an angioplasty to widen the artery.
02:41Went well, apparently.
02:42Good to hear. You been to visit?
02:44I've got nobody to cover here, but I'm gonna go down as soon as we close up.
02:48You're gonna get a lot of love, won't you?
02:50You take it for granted, your health,
02:52and then something like this comes out of the blue.
02:54No more than most.
02:56We're not getting any younger, that's for sure.
02:58Speak for yourself.
02:59No, I mean, it just makes you think, that's all.
03:07Look, it wasn't my idea to bring Charles back to ours.
03:11Nobody said it was.
03:12Nicky, please, can we not just try and put all this behind us?
03:16You could have killed Ethan.
03:18I didn't, though.
03:19He died of natural causes.
03:21So that makes it OK.
03:25I was angry.
03:27But only because of how much I love you.
03:30And because of how close I nearly came to losing you because of Ethan.
03:35It was stupid, I know.
03:37And no, that doesn't make it OK.
03:39But our family shouldn't be torn apart because of something I did,
03:43because I love you so much.
03:45Nicky, please come home.
03:47I'm happy where I am.
03:51I'm enjoying spending more time with Sonny.
03:54Andy needs me there at the minute while Laurel's in hospital.
03:58No, it doesn't have to be right away.
04:01And I promise I won't intervene if you want to knock your dad into shape again.
04:05I might even weigh him myself.
04:09How about you and Sonny come round for dinner sometime as a starting point?
04:12Maybe.
04:13In fact, why don't we ask him to join us now?
04:15We could take his mind off it.
04:17You know how much he loves me.
04:19If you say so.
04:20Give him a call.
04:23Last time I woke up on someone's sofa, I was barely out of my teens.
04:28A bit too old for this.
04:30The worst place you could wake up in.
04:32Not sure it's become any more vigor, though.
04:34Like you channelling your mum there.
04:40Well, don't worry.
04:42Secret's safe with me.
04:43Thanks.
04:45And thanks for last night.
04:48For everything, really.
04:51Your kindness has helped a lot.
04:53And Ruby's.
04:55I'm just glad that we've been able to move on after Ethan and Nicky's crash.
05:00Yeah, me too.
05:02Oh.
05:03I'm sorry.
05:04That's fine.
05:05No, it really isn't.
05:06Relax, mate. That rug's on its way out anyway.
05:08Let me clean it.
05:09No, don't worry about it.
05:10I insist.
05:12Sorry.
05:30Don't mean to be rude, mate, but I've got to shoot off soon.
05:33I've got a meeting in Hotton.
05:35Ruby needs a car later, so I'm off to book a taxi.
05:37I'll give you a lift.
05:38No, no, it's fine.
05:40I can sort myself out. You don't need to do that.
05:42It's the least I could do.
05:44Well, I'm not sure you're in a fit state to drive, are you?
05:47I've been asleep for hours.
05:49And how are you for last night?
05:51And this?
05:53I said don't worry about that.
05:54Seriously?
05:57Let me repay the favour.
06:02So what happened between you two?
06:04Before she fell?
06:07Nothing.
06:09Well, something was up yesterday. I could tell.
06:14We argued, all right? It was nothing.
06:16Just a little disagreement.
06:20Oh.
06:22There she is.
06:24Hey.
06:25How are you feeling?
06:27OK.
06:29I was just a bit sore.
06:31Yeah, you need to rest up.
06:33Best excuse ever to be waiting on hand and foot, right?
06:36And I'm more than happy to oblige.
06:38Where are the kids?
06:39Sonny got them off to school.
06:41He messaged earlier. Everyone's fine.
06:44No, you need to just think about yourself.
06:46Nicola's been texting me non-stop.
06:48The whole village is asking after you.
06:51That's lovely.
06:53No, you need to take it easy, Laurel.
06:57Yeah, I will.
06:58And I'll be at your beck and call.
07:00Anything you need, I'm there.
07:02And I mean anything.
07:04Anything.
07:06I'm going to get you better.
07:07And get you home.
07:13Where have you been?
07:14I've been worried sick.
07:16Had your phone stopped working?
07:17Oh, I'm sorry.
07:19I should have let you know I wasn't coming home.
07:21Is everything all right?
07:22Yeah, absolutely fine.
07:23Just something's come up.
07:25Something more important than a parishioner collapsing in your church yesterday?
07:28You should be at the hospital visiting.
07:30You're right, I've just got to deal with this first.
07:32But...
07:33I won't be long!
07:38Look at this.
07:39My two favourite boys.
07:42I'm hoping you might help me persuade this one to be a little less grumpy with me.
07:45I'll do my best.
07:48Are you okay?
07:49I know you've got a lot going on.
07:52Yeah, I just feel like I should be doing more than sitting around drinking coffee.
07:56Well, unless you've become a cardiac consultant overnight,
07:58it sounds like you're doing everything you can.
08:00I quite like the idea of you in surgical scrubs.
08:05I'm sure Jay appreciates everything you're doing for him.
08:08I was just saying before you arrived, to Nicky, how nothing should come before family.
08:14I won't argue with that.
08:16This just feels like a chance to show Jay how much it means to me that we're brothers.
08:21I really want to be there for him.
08:22I'm sure he knows that already.
08:25Now, how about you both come round for dinner tonight?
08:28I might have the kids.
08:29Well, bring them.
08:30And Jay, if he's back from the hospital, the more the merrier.
08:34Please, Nicky.
08:36He'll be there.
08:43This song came out after Ethan was born.
08:47I see.
08:49Are we taking a shortcut coming this way?
08:55I just need a minute.
08:56I just need a minute.
09:12Are you alright?
09:13A bit overwhelmed.
09:15You mean the song?
09:17Listen, I can make my own way into Horton.
09:20Give you a bit of space, you know.
09:22I'd prefer it if you stayed.
09:24Yeah, of course.
09:26It's no problem.
09:28I'm sorry, Caleb.
09:31I shouldn't be putting all this on you, man.
09:39Here you go.
09:44It's not the end of the world, you know.
09:46Well, it's easy for you to say.
09:48You're not the beauticians that have completed what?
09:50There are two. Two appointments of the entire day.
09:52I've had to send Amelia home.
09:53I can't cope with the endless small talk.
09:56Things will pick up. They always do.
09:58I'm glad you're so confident.
09:59I'm always confident in you.
10:02Right, why don't I cheer you up by taking you to the cafe for something to eat later?
10:06I suppose.
10:07You can have whatever you want, just don't say I'm not good to you.
10:11You're always good to me.
10:13I know I'm the luckiest woman alive.
10:16Maybe we can do a little bit of wedding planning.
10:20There's no rush for that, is there?
10:21Is there not?
10:22We haven't even set a date.
10:23Well, exactly, we can do that.
10:24Okay.
10:26You don't seem very excited.
10:27Of course I'm excited.
10:28But?
10:29But there's no buts, Paddy.
10:31Alright then, well, let's meet later and do a little bit of wedding planning then.
10:37He was such a good boy.
10:40I know he wasn't perfect with that stuff with Nicky.
10:43No.
10:44That's all in the past now.
10:45But he had morals and principles.
10:48Even when he was a kid.
10:50Even when he was a kid.
10:53I was so proud when he got accepted into law school.
10:55Yeah.
10:57Yeah, I bet you were.
10:59Now he's gone.
11:01And I just keep trying to make sense of it.
11:04Even though I can't.
11:05I think you need to focus on the good memories.
11:10Easy as that.
11:11No.
11:12No, of course not.
11:14I reckon it'll get easier given time.
11:17I'm not so sure about that.
11:20I just can't believe
11:23that they dropped a hit and run investigation like that.
11:26Have you spoken to Claude yet about any of this?
11:29My mum's great.
11:33But it feels easier talking to you.
11:36She's grieving herself.
11:46I'm sorry.
12:14I'm sorry.
12:15Can we not do this now?
12:16Because I'm just trying to get my head around the fact that I nearly died yesterday.
12:23It's my fault.
12:24That's all I wanted to say.
12:29I blame myself for getting you all wound up like that.
12:34I really am sorry.
12:36I'll make it up to you, I promise.
12:39Are you going to make it up to Sonny?
12:45You haven't told him, have you?
12:49I haven't had a chance.
12:50Haven't had the chance or haven't got the courage?
12:53When was I supposed to tell him with all this going on?
12:56You had lots of opportunities before.
12:59I'll tell him.
13:01I promise.
13:02Bill, you said that yesterday and I'm starting to think that
13:07your promises just don't really mean anything, do they?
13:10I'll do it, I swear.
13:11When?
13:12When?
13:14As soon as I get a chance.
13:16Today.
13:18Stop wasting time.
13:21Find Sonny J and tell him the truth.
13:30If you could, Brenda, I really need to get down to the hospital.
13:33Try and be back a bit sooner, please.
13:35Thanks.
13:42What's the matter?
13:43Sorry?
13:45Nothing, you just seem to be a bit evasive about setting a date for the wedding.
13:49I wasn't being evasive.
13:51No.
13:53You were hardly enthusiastic either, though, were you?
13:55You just took me by surprise, that's all.
13:57Right.
13:58But we do have to set a date for the wedding.
14:00Yes, I know.
14:02We're not in any bad for us, though, are we?
14:04No.
14:05Well, no.
14:07Mandy.
14:10You do still want to get married, don't you?
14:11Are you crazy?
14:13Of course I do.
14:14I want nothing more in the whole wide world,
14:16but I just want to enjoy being engaged for a bit, you know?
14:20Be present.
14:21Stay in the moment.
14:24Oh, look at you two lovebirds sneaking out for a romantic rendezvous.
14:29Join us if you want.
14:30What? Oh, no, no.
14:31I wouldn't dream of interrupting.
14:32Actually, I've just come for some take-outs.
14:34Me and Ron are going for a walk.
14:35You know, make the most of being child-free.
14:38Going for a walk?
14:39Sadly, making the most of being child-free.
14:41Each to their own.
14:42So it has.
14:44She's right, though, isn't she?
14:46Should you not be both letting your hair down,
14:48being butt-loose and fancy-free?
14:50Why don't we do something together?
14:51Something couple-y.
14:54Sounds a bit wrong, that.
14:56I just mean play some games, have a few drinks, it'd be great.
14:59It's been ages since we've done something together.
15:01Yeah, cos it ended really well last time, didn't it?
15:04Oh, you mean the dinner party of doom.
15:07Well, then, let's rectify that.
15:09Come round two hours later.
15:10About six-ish.
15:11Yeah, all right, why not?
15:13Yeah, thanks.
15:22Listen, I, er...
15:23I really need to start getting back.
15:27I think you need to speak to someone.
15:29Like a professional, maybe.
15:31Talk all this stuff through properly.
15:33The only person I really need to talk to right now is you.
15:38I need to know what happened the day Ethan got knocked down.
15:42Er...
15:43Well, I'm not following you.
15:45You know what I'm talking about.
15:48Look, you're upset.
15:50Yeah, and you're grieving.
15:51And you had quite a bit to drink last night.
15:53Don't patronise me, man.
15:54Nobody's patronising anybody.
15:58I'm going.
16:00You're not going nowhere.
16:01I'm not doing you any favours, humouring this behaviour.
16:04You need to get some proper help.
16:05Whoa!
16:07Listen, Charles.
16:09You've just lost your son.
16:11I'd be all over the place as well feeling exactly the same as you are.
16:14I'm not messing around.
16:15Just take it easy, all right?
16:18An invoice from the garage.
16:21I found it in your kitchen.
16:24Dated the day after Ethan was run over.
16:32What have you been?
16:35Nowhere.
16:37You see, the answer to that should have been none of your business.
16:42Where have you been, though?
16:44None of your business.
16:45That's better.
16:47Just say it like you mean it next time.
16:51So, are you on some kind of medication?
16:55That's a real question, by the way.
17:00Look, you don't have to answer that if you don't want to.
17:03But a little bit of advice.
17:06That lad earlier.
17:09He was right.
17:10People keep asking questions if you're disappearing with the staff all the time.
17:15Now, you can tell them to butt out if you want,
17:17but if you're on methadone or something,
17:21it'd be easier if you'd just come out with it.
17:26It's not that simple.
17:27Yeah, well, that's up to you.
17:30I'm only trying to help you.
17:33Yeah.
17:44Oh, Sonny.
17:45Hey.
17:46Thought I'd squeeze a quick visit in before I pick the kids up from school.
17:50Well, that's really thoughtful of you.
17:52Thank you so much for helping out.
17:54No, of course.
17:55We're family.
17:56At times like this, everyone's got to pull together.
17:59I'm guessing you haven't spoken to Jay?
18:01About what?
18:03Is everything OK?
18:06So it turns out that a leper doesn't really ever change his spots.
18:11I was going to tell him.
18:12No, you weren't.
18:13Tell me what?
18:14I'm sorry, Sonny.
18:16About what?
18:17Tell him.
18:18Tell him now.
18:20Oh, you are so spineless and weak.
18:22I'll do it.
18:26I'm really sorry, Sonny, to have to tell you this,
18:28but I've only just found this out myself recently, but...
18:33turns out...
18:35Jay lied.
18:39Your dad did kill Rishi.
18:43I'm sorry, I tried to...
18:44No!
18:46And then Jay used the information to blackmail him into leaving,
18:49and then he made him sign over all of his shares in Hott.
18:55People are going to start asking questions
18:57about why the guards come round all the time.
19:00They already are.
19:04Look...
19:08What is it you're hiding, anyway?
19:11Nothing.
19:14Suit yourself.
19:16Anyway, I already told you.
19:20None of your business.
19:27You're all right, you.
19:29I'm not trying to be difficult, it's just, erm...
19:32it's a bit personal.
19:34Listen...
19:36whatever it is,
19:38it'll most likely come out anyway.
19:40Or people will come up with their own ideas.
19:43And that could be worse.
19:49Can I trust you?
19:53You, erm...
19:55You know, I...
19:57You, erm...
19:58You swear you won't tell anyone?
20:01Well, that depends what it is.
20:04But I ain't about to go round gossiping with that life,
20:06if that's what you're asking.
20:10The thing is, erm...
20:15Before I say this, erm...
20:19Just know that I am...
20:21a normal guy like you, yeah?
20:22But, erm...
20:25The medication that I take...
20:28is, er, testosterone.
20:31So, I'm transgender.
20:46Was it you that knocked Ethan down?
20:47Yo.
20:48Then why did your car need breaking down?
20:50Yo.
20:51Then why did your car need body repairs the day after?
20:53I don't know what you think this is!
20:54You're lying! That's what it is!
20:58You're protecting someone else.
21:00You have no idea what this is like for me, do you?
21:02Look, you're right. I don't.
21:03I just want the truth.
21:04Look, none of this is helping anyone.
21:07And none of this is going to bring Ethan back.
21:08It's not about bringing him back, can't you see that?
21:11It's about knowing that I've done everything possible
21:13to get justice for my son.
21:14You needn't let it go.
21:15I can't move on until I know exactly what happened.
21:17This isn't a coincidence.
21:18The coroner said that the accident
21:19had nothing to do with Ethan's death anyway.
21:21He died of natural causes.
21:22I don't care what the coroner said!
21:27I know.
21:30You were involved in the hit-and-run.
21:34So, tell me what you know, Caleb.
21:38Or I'm going straight to the police.
21:43OK, you're right.
21:44You're right.
21:47It was me. I was the one who ran Ethan over.
22:03I'm sorry.
22:07I really am.
22:09Sorry?
22:12Is that the best you've got?
22:13There's nothing that I can say or do
22:15that will change anything.
22:18I know that.
22:20You've been lying to me this whole time.
22:23Your wife brought us food and sympathy
22:27when Ethan died.
22:29And all this time, she knew you were responsible.
22:32No, Ruby knows nothing about this.
22:34That was genuine sympathy.
22:36I slept under your roof last night, man.
22:39What else was I supposed to do? You were in a state.
22:41I couldn't kick you out on the street, could I?
22:43So you played the good Samaritan instead?
22:49I don't know what else to say.
22:54You can tell me exactly what happened.
23:02I was angry.
23:05Ethan had put Nicky in hospital.
23:08We didn't know if he was going to live or die.
23:11That's why I wanted to hurt him.
23:13So you hit him?
23:16And you drove away?
23:18I wasn't thinking straight, was I?
23:21Just the same as you're not thinking straight now.
23:26You didn't care, you mean.
23:29You didn't even get out of the car.
23:32The human being just lying there.
23:35And you drove off.
23:38He could have been dead.
23:41Well, at least I wasn't blind drunk, eh?
23:43This isn't about Ethan.
23:46It's about you.
23:47In fact, save your breath.
23:51You can tell it to the police.
23:52Oh, no.
23:54No, I won't be saying anything to the police.
23:57What?
23:59Ethan's gone.
24:01And it wasn't the accident that killed him.
24:02Everyone knows that.
24:04He's gone.
24:05And nothing's bringing him back.
24:08Besides,
24:09I've got an alibi for that morning.
24:12And it's a watertight one.
24:14You're going to lie to the police?
24:17After you've just admitted it to me?
24:19I'd be angry as well if I was you.
24:21Trust me.
24:22This is more than anger.
24:23If the police come knocking at my door,
24:26I would deny that this conversation ever happened.
24:28The difference is, I've got the evidence.
24:31Ethan didn't report it.
24:33He didn't even go to the hospital.
24:35And my car being repaired, it doesn't mean anything.
24:37You'd be wasting your time.
24:43Let me make this up to you, please.
24:48You and my dad,
24:50you're the same.
24:52You poison everything you go near.
24:55Even Laurel is suffering now because of you.
24:58Sonny, listen.
24:59I'm done listening.
25:00Look, all of this with Laurel,
25:02it's made me realise how stupid I've been.
25:04It's made me realise how stupid I've been.
25:07It's made me realise how much I need to change.
25:09Not with her, with you.
25:11With everything.
25:14I actually thought I had a brother.
25:17A real family and a place to call home.
25:21Yet you've been lying and cheating me for months.
25:25Meanwhile, I've been running around looking after your kids
25:28and worrying about your sick wife,
25:30who, by the way, deserves so much better than you.
25:32I will never,
25:34ever lie to you again.
25:37OK?
25:38What I did was out of order, OK?
25:40But we are brothers.
25:42And I want to make it right.
25:46We can find a way through this.
25:50No, we can't.
25:52I hope you enjoy your shares.
25:55I'm done with you.
25:59This isn't you, Charles.
26:01People like you think you can do whatever you want.
26:04You ruin people's lives if you're lying and cheating.
26:06You think you can get away with the consequences?
26:08Just calm down, will you?
26:09You sat there and lied to me!
26:11What was I supposed to tell you?
26:13How many people have you hurt?
26:14Right, listen to me, Charles.
26:16Ethan dying had nothing to do with that car accident.
26:20It was...
26:21It was an act of God.
26:22You should know that better than anyone.
26:23Don't even think about bringing God into this.
26:25It's the truth. You need to think about it.
26:28If this was one of your parishioners,
26:29what would you be telling them right now?
26:32You'd be telling them that they need to accept it.
26:36They need to accept it and try and move on.
26:39Come on.
26:40You know that you would.
26:51You know, sometimes things happen
26:53and it doesn't make any sense.
26:56Whether it's...
26:58..God or fate or karma, whatever it is.
27:02Come on, Charles.
27:06Ethan wouldn't want you eating yourself up like this.
27:08Don't even say his name.
27:10His name's too good to come out of your mouth.
27:15He was my son.
27:16I'm so sorry.
27:20But he's gone.
27:25Yeah.
27:28Fab it.
27:32In the future, you stay away from me and my family.
27:35Do you understand me?
27:39Maybe one day you'll find out what it's like to lose a child.
27:52You know,
27:54it's mad to think that you used to be a woman.
27:58Well, I was always a man, really, deep down.
28:02And this testosterone, you need to take it every day?
28:07Yeah.
28:09It's just a gel.
28:11There's no injections, tablets or anything.
28:16Wow.
28:17And that's all you need?
28:20Yeah, pretty much.
28:22So, did you always think you were a man?
28:26I always knew, yeah.
28:28From when I was a kid.
28:30Sorry, I wasn't trying to be smart.
28:33No, you're fine.
28:36It's not ideal, though, is it, really, being in a place like this?
28:39I mean, wouldn't you better be in a woman's prison?
28:42Would have been easier, wouldn't it?
28:45To be honest, I think this is the only time I don't want to be a man.
28:51But I am one, so...
28:53where else am I going to go?
28:56Yeah, well, I reckon there's a few in here that'd use that against you.
29:01One way or another.
29:02Not you, though.
29:04Listen, mate, I've been in these places enough times,
29:08and the policy's the same.
29:12Mind my own business and get it done.
29:15Whatever people do, say or are,
29:19it's nothing to do with me.
29:21Unless they make it something to do with me.
29:25You're right to be cagey, though.
29:28But as far as I'm concerned, none of my business.
29:34Thanks.
29:36You just mind how you go, though.
29:38Cos there's plenty of others that'll take a different point of view.
29:42Is Laura OK?
29:43She's fine.
29:44Well, apart from being married to one of the lowest,
29:46most toxic human beings to ever walk this planet.
29:49My so-called brother.
29:50What's he done?
29:51Taken me for a complete nutter mug, that's what.
29:54There I am, sat in that cafe earlier,
29:56agreeing with your mum about how important family is,
29:59when he's been lying and cheating me for months.
30:02Wait, you're going to have to slow down.
30:04What's happened?
30:11My dad killed Uncle Rish, and Jay found out.
30:14And instead of telling me or going to the police,
30:18he blackmailed Dad into handing over his shares in Hop
30:22before forcing him to leave.
30:25What?
30:26He didn't even come clean.
30:28Laurel told me.
30:31He's a snake, and I never want to see him again.
30:37In fact, I can't stay here for another minute.
30:40I'm packing my things and I'm leaving.
30:42But where?
30:43I don't know, I...
30:44I just need to get as far away from this place as possible.
30:49Will you come with me?
30:53Look, Nicky...
30:54It's just...
30:55Look, I know it's a lot to spring on you, it's just...
30:58You were the one that's been wanting to leave for ages.
31:00I know that.
31:01So what's changed?
31:02It's me mum.
31:03She's really trying and I...
31:05I can't just leave.
31:07And yet it never ceases to trouble me.
31:09I did not think...
31:10The Wanderer returns.
31:11The Wanderer returns.
31:14It does indeed.
31:17Did you go and visit Laurel?
31:19Not yet.
31:22I'll go tomorrow.
31:24Don't worry, I'll stop asking questions now.
31:27That would be nice.
31:30You must be tired after all your drinking and gallivanting
31:33these past couple of days.
31:35A bit.
31:37And hungry too?
31:38I could eat.
31:41How about I go and make you something?
31:45That would be lovely, thanks.
31:54All of this will get easier.
31:56Maybe not completely better.
31:58And maybe not any time soon.
32:01But it will get easier.
32:03You know that, don't you?
32:04We'll get through this together.
32:09I spend all my time
32:12telling people to
32:15accept God's will.
32:20Maybe I need to follow my own advice.
32:24I think we both do.
32:26Right, so any paperwork from that day,
32:29make sure it's all gone.
32:30It's talking absolutely everything.
32:32Wait, it won't come to that, but
32:34just get rid of it all anyway.
32:35I'll speak to you later.
32:41I'm sorry.
32:43I'm sorry.
32:45I'm sorry.
32:47I'm sorry.
32:49I'm sorry.
32:51I'm sorry.
32:53I'm sorry.
32:55I just had a run-in with Charles.
32:57What kind of a run-in?
32:58He saw the repair slip for the car.
33:01He realised that it was the day after Ethan got knocked over
33:03and he's put turn two together.
33:06And?
33:07I told him it was me that was driving.
33:10What?!
33:11He wouldn't let it lie.
33:12He was all over the place.
33:15I take it your mate's gone?
33:16He knows
33:18that it was our car that hit Ethan.
33:20I told him it was me that was driving to protect your mum.
33:22Well, aren't you Mr Chivalrous?
33:24Nicky!
33:25Listen, right.
33:26If you go to the police,
33:27we need to make sure that all our stories are straight.
33:29Are you asking me to lie for you again?
33:31Not for me.
33:32It's for your mum.
33:33Actually, do you know what?
33:34It's for all of us.
33:35You really don't change, do you?
33:37This is just a big game to you, isn't it?
33:38This isn't down to me.
33:40We need to pull together right now.
33:41I'll tell you what.
33:42I am done with all this mess.
33:43No, no.
33:44Nicky, wait.
33:45Hang on.
33:46Let me talk to him.
33:49At least let me try and explain.
33:50I've had enough of your explanations to last a lifetime.
33:53I don't want to hear it.
33:54I'm trying to protect your mum here.
33:55She wouldn't need protecting if she didn't run someone over.
33:58What?
33:59What, you think we don't know that?
34:00Look, all I want to do is clear this mess up,
34:02so just hear me out.
34:03I've done enough listening.
34:05To you, especially.
34:06I'm not getting involved in any more of your lies.
34:08Oh, come on, Nicky.
34:09This isn't my fault and you know it.
34:10Your mum, she made a mistake
34:12and we need to stick together till it's all sorted.
34:14Nah.
34:15I've had enough of sticking together with you.
34:23Oh, it's Jimmy.
34:24He's had to pick up Archie and Dottie.
34:26Sonny couldn't do it for some reason.
34:28Well, let's keep all of that away from Laurel.
34:30Let her relax properly without worrying.
34:32Yeah, definitely.
34:33You know, I keep thinking about what could have happened
34:36if I hadn't found her.
34:38Oh, no, don't do that to yourself.
34:40I should have noticed how stressed out she's been.
34:43I know.
34:44I know.
34:45I know.
34:46I know.
34:47I know.
34:48I know.
34:49I know.
34:50I know.
34:51She's been...
34:52Hey!
34:53Gabby, this isn't your fault.
34:55No, don't.
34:56You'll get me started.
34:58You know, I...
35:00I keep thinking about my dad.
35:04I can't go through that again.
35:07And you don't think about how much someone means to you
35:09until you see them like that.
35:11Come here.
35:13You know, I couldn't go without Laurel.
35:17She's going to be all right, isn't she?
35:19Yeah, the doctors have said she's responding well to treatment.
35:23She just needs to see this as a warning and slow down a bit.
35:27If it happens again...
35:29She's got us.
35:30And we'll get her through this.
35:32And this is a chance for Jay to really start pulling his weight between us.
35:36We'll make sure she's OK.
35:38Come on.
35:40Found him.
35:41Found him!
35:46Bat gammon?
35:47What do you mean?
35:48Don't tell me you've never heard of bat gammon.
35:50I don't play games with meeting a title, it's one of my life rules.
35:53Can't we do something a bit more fun?
35:55Like what?
35:56Hmm, Twister, maybe?
35:58I've played Twister!
36:00Number Goggle, what's that going to be about?
36:02Well, it's like a dice game.
36:05Sounds great.
36:06I bet Rona's going to love it.
36:08What do you mean by that?
36:09She's not exactly the most exciting of people, is she?
36:11Rona's absolutely lovely.
36:13I didn't say she wasn't lovely.
36:14Exciting and lovely are two very different things, Paddy.
36:22Sorry, I would have got here sooner, but I couldn't leave work.
36:25Oh, are you here now?
36:27That's what matters.
36:29How are you feeling?
36:30Well...
36:31Nicola, I am going to live.
36:33You're flimming better.
36:34Where's Jay?
36:35Um, he's gone.
36:37Sounds ominous.
36:38No, no, he had something to take care of, so...
36:41What, more important than being here with you?
36:43Gabby, you know what he's like.
36:44Is everything OK?
36:45Yeah. Fine.
36:49Do you fancy going and grabbing us a couple of coffees?
36:51Yeah, sure.
36:56What's going on, Lauren?
36:58Well, do you want the honest answer?
37:02I don't think I can do this anymore.
37:04Do what anymore?
37:06Being married to one of the most corrupt, dishonest, cowardly people
37:11I have ever had the misfortune to meet.
37:17Ugh, this game's stupid.
37:19I'm Dyson. Captain. Seriously.
37:22Well, maybe if you just concentrated a little bit more
37:25and drank a little bit less.
37:27Yeah, but when you said games, I wasn't expecting this.
37:30Well, what did you expect?
37:31A bit more fun, maybe?
37:34Right.
37:39Come and join me for a French martini.
37:43We're in the middle of a game.
37:45We're in the middle of a game.
37:47Are you taking the mickey?
37:51Loosen up a bit.
37:52I'm perfectly loose, thank you very much.
37:55No, you're not, though, are you?
37:56I beg your pardon?
37:57Mum's here.
38:00I'm just saying.
38:03I feel like I'm living in love with people, though.
38:07Maybe we should just call it a night.
38:09Can we just finish the game?
38:10I'm not sure I want to now.
38:11Oh, come on, Rona.
38:12I didn't mean anything by it.
38:14Come on.
38:16Have a French martini.
38:29You sure about leaving?
38:30Absolutely.
38:32100%.
38:34I just...
38:35I don't want to feel like I'm dragging you away from your mum.
38:37Pad, you're right.
38:38We need to do this.
38:40I just want to speak to Charles before we go.
38:43I'll grab some snacks for the journey.
39:03Can I come in?
39:06It's OK with you, or rather you didn't.
39:10I just wanted to talk.
39:12Before I go.
39:14You're leaving?
39:16Yeah.
39:19For good?
39:21That's the plan.
39:22To go where?
39:24I'm not sure yet.
39:26Travelling somewhere.
39:28Anywhere.
39:29Anywhere.
39:32I just wanted to say that I'm sorry.
39:35About everything.
39:37Did you know all along?
39:39About your dad?
39:45It's probably a wise move that you leave.
39:49I'd do the same thing if I was in your position.
39:54I am really sorry.
39:57About Ethan.
39:59And everything.
40:01You were his friend.
40:03I know how much he cared about you.
40:08I hope you can find some kind of happiness.
40:12I do too.
40:14Good luck.
40:21Well, no wonder you had a heart attack.
40:24I think I just need a whole lifestyle change.
40:27Good start with a husband transplant.
40:30I just keep thinking about the kids.
40:32You've got to do what's right for yourself too, Laurel.
40:35Yeah, I know, I know.
40:36But it's a big decision, isn't it?
40:40Oh, why don't I give you two a little bit of space?
40:42No!
40:43No, I want you to stay.
40:45I want you to hear what I've got to say.
40:48Talk in front of Nicola.
40:49Talk in front of Nicola.
40:54I...
40:57I tried to talk to Sonny.
41:00He wouldn't listen.
41:01Are you surprised by that?
41:03Laurel, I...
41:04Do you know what?
41:06Leave it. Not interested.
41:07I made a mistake.
41:08One in a very long line.
41:11Look, I just want to put all of this behind us.
41:15All right? Focus on helping you get through this.
41:19I will do whatever it takes to make it up to you.
41:22I've heard it a million times before.
41:24I mean it this time.
41:26We're done.
41:27No, no, no, no, Laurel.
41:30Look, one more chance.
41:33That's all I'm asking for.
41:36Not for me, for the kids.
41:40Laurel, please.
41:41No, no.
41:42I'm sorry.
41:43There's not anything you can say or do
41:45that's going to make me change my mind.
41:47I don't want to be with you anymore.
41:49You and me, it's over.
41:58Are you going somewhere?
42:00I was going to call you from the car.
42:03I just thought it'd be easier.
42:05You were going to call me from the car about what?
42:10We're leaving.
42:13I'm sorry, Mum.
42:14It's not been an easy decision, but we're going.
42:17Go where?
42:19I'm not sure we are.
42:21Travelling somewhere.
42:22Seriously?
42:24You can't just leave.
42:25We need a fresh start.
42:27Both of us.
42:29Away from here and away from me dad especially.
42:32Oh, Nicky, no.
42:34They're leaving.
42:36What?
42:38Where are you going?
42:39None of your business.
42:40Nicky.
42:41What?
42:42I'm not interested in anything he has to say.
42:43Can we just at least talk about this?
42:45We've talked enough.
42:47I'm sorry, Mum.
42:52You take care, alright?
42:58Both of you.
43:00You better take care of him.
43:02I will.
43:03I promise.
43:06I love you.
43:10Nicky, please don't do this.
43:13Look, we can sort it out.
43:16We can sort it out.
43:46That's on the way from 10 to 10.
43:48And there's new drama before that as the reaction to that tweet just keeps getting bigger.
43:53Douglas is cancelled.
43:54Continues at 9.
43:56After some foodie inspiration from Tom Kerridge.
43:59On the way next.
