Transcript
00:30Hi. Oh, full face of make-up to look after all the animals. Loving your style, babes.
00:40Can't tell I've spent the last hour throwing up, then.
00:43Oh, the baby.
00:44I looked it up online. It's normal to feel a bit off in the first few weeks.
00:48It's only been a couple of days since your accident. Why don't I call Mampreet? I can pop you over to the surgery.
00:53And say what? I'm pregnant with Liam's baby.
00:56Hey! He's a doctor. You're going to be bumping into him all the time. Once you start showing, he's going to work it out.
01:03I can't tell him. It's too soon. I haven't even got my head around it yet.
01:08And I've got enough to worry about right now.
01:10Hit bombs from Tracy and getting through my first day at the vets.
01:14So you're up to it?
01:16I have to be. I need this job.
01:20And whatever I decide to do about the baby, I'm going to need to find a place of my own.
01:25I can't camp out in your treatment room forever.
01:27You can stay up there as long as you like.
01:30Whatever happens now is right. We'll work it out. Together.
01:44How's he doing?
01:46Yeah. Really good, actually. He's got a little smile from him.
01:51What, a little fire, eh?
01:54Yeah. No thanks to Kim bringing an infection.
02:00Yeah, well, what if she didn't do it?
02:02She admitted it. You heard her. You were there.
02:06Yeah, well, maybe there's more to it than you think.
02:08Why are you making excuses for her? She infected Evan. She almost killed me.
02:14Only infection don't hurt. I know that Evan got it from me.
02:18What? No, you've not been anywhere. You've hardly seen anyone.
02:22Yeah, well, the other day when I went out for a run, I bumped into Nate.
02:27Ended up having a few cans and a ketchup, but we were careful.
02:31Kept our distance, but...
02:33And you never said anything?
02:35I ended up getting bladdered.
02:38Nate pretty much carried me home.
02:42And I saw Kim when I got back.
02:44She saw the state I was in, sent me to one of the guest rooms.
02:49And she told you that I was on some job.
02:52So when Evan got sick, I just...
02:55I knew it was my fault.
02:59You put him at risk.
03:01After everything the doctors told us.
03:04When you know how vulnerable he is.
03:07Yeah, and I couldn't hate myself any more.
03:12Dawn, I wanted to tell you. I really did.
03:15But you were out of your mind with worry, and Kim thought that
03:18if you were to find out, we'd just end up arguing again.
03:23She was trying to protect us.
03:25So you let her lie to me? To all of us?
03:29Look, she wanted us to focus on Evan, his recovery.
03:32She was trying to help us.
03:34She's not this monster that you make her out to be. She actually cares.
03:37Oh, yeah, she cares so much that she spiked me.
03:40That wasn't her. She didn't do it.
03:42She's a liar, Billy. She always has been.
03:45If you're thick enough to believe what she says,
03:47then you're worse than she is.
03:53Oh, I made him gravel.
03:55And Eric admits it was a mistake to cut down my shifts.
03:58He wants me back.
04:00And thanks to you lot, I'm available.
04:03Look, I know you really wanted to be our receptionist,
04:05but Paddy and Rona were right.
04:07Ella's the one with the experience.
04:09But I couldn't pick up in, like, ten minutes.
04:12She's the one who's been in prison half.
04:16She's the one who's been in prison half her life.
04:18Are you telling me you trust her over me?
04:20Ignore her. Sit down. I'll bring you someone over.
04:27Hey. Good to see you.
04:29You doing all right?
04:33Is he serious?
04:34Trace, you've got to let this go.
04:36I'm only saying what no-one else will.
04:38As long as she's about, no kid is safe.
04:41Just like no-one's husband's safe with you about.
04:43I'll catch you later, Mandy, OK?
04:45OK.
04:47Brenda!
04:54Your pillows.
04:56And some of the other stuff you asked for.
05:00I'll be up to do the horses every morning.
05:02But don't worry, I'll stay out of your way.
05:05I didn't want any of this.
05:07I only moved out to keep Evan safe.
05:10He's our absolute priority.
05:12Not because she almost got Dawn killed, then.
05:15That's what Rose has told you, so it has to be true.
05:19Because you couldn't bring yourself to believe
05:21that she'd stooped to spiking Dawn's drink
05:24in some cack-handed attempt to set me up.
05:27Give over!
05:28Your drug dealer turned up at our front door.
05:31I've never seen him before in my life.
05:35If you believe I'd do anything to put Dawn at risk,
05:38then you're not the man I thought I married.
05:40And if you could spike her, let her get in a car and drive off,
05:43you're not the woman I thought I loved.
05:45I'll see myself out.
05:50Kim.
05:52I told Dawn that you covered for me, but she wouldn't listen.
05:55Why would she?
05:57Will, on the other hand, should know better.
05:59You shouldn't have to leave.
06:01It's wrong, and I'm so sorry.
06:04Don't be.
06:06It's nothing I can't handle.
06:21Yeah, of course, Ella.
06:23I've been on pins on my... How's she doing?
06:25Yeah, yeah, yeah, she's great, she's great.
06:27She's organised, she's professional,
06:29and she's absolutely mortified.
06:33She ended up forwarding an email that was meant just for Tom to all of us,
06:36by mistake.
06:37Oh, that'd be nerves. Plus Tracy having to go at her first thing.
06:40Yeah, she ended up doing us a bit of a favour, actually.
06:42It was from surgery in Wales,
06:44and apparently they want to see him for a second interview.
06:47Oh, what, Tom's going for a new job?
06:49All we've been told is he's on this little break with Belle, aren't you?
06:52And Vanessa saw him taking off yesterday.
06:55Hang on, they've gone away, together?
06:57Yeah, did you not know?
06:58What's that we're doing now?
07:00I thought he was happy here, we all did.
07:02I thought he fitted in quite well.
07:04I don't really want to lose him.
07:05Yeah, no, Belle.
07:06Cos, you know, if he does go, she's going too.
07:09I can't even talk to him, he's got his phone switched off.
07:11If you hear from either of them, just get them to give us a ring.
07:15Like that's going to happen.
07:17Belle's not even speaking to us since we staged that intervention.
07:19Charity, you staged it.
07:22A marriage, a business.
07:24Look, if we had made it our business,
07:25she wouldn't be thinking about having a new life in Wales, would she?
07:31Thank you.
07:38Hey.
07:39Hi. Have you got a minute?
07:40Yeah, I'm just on my break, fancy a brew?
07:42Oh, no.
07:44Um, yeah, I just wanted to apologise again
07:48for not being able to finish that drink the other day.
07:51Even you can't blame yourself for an accident.
07:55Anyway, I heard Dawn's doing OK and, well,
07:58Mandy's taken Ella in at the salon.
08:00And she's also got a job at the vets,
08:03so it looks like she's here to stay.
08:06Awkward, right?
08:08Oh.
08:10You know, when everything came out, I made it clear to Ella that we were over.
08:14And all I felt was just a sense of relief
08:17that I would never have to see her again.
08:19And then Mandy scooped her up and brought her back here.
08:22I mean, Ella has no-one,
08:25she's got nowhere else to go.
08:27How could I possibly object?
08:29But you do.
08:31Well, the feelings that I thought I had for her
08:35were really just a projection of the feelings
08:38that I actually had for somebody else.
08:41Somebody who, at the time,
08:43wasn't really in a position to reciprocate.
08:48That drink, we never finished.
08:52Yeah, I...
08:54I'd just really like to pick up where we left off.
09:02I'd like that too.
09:07Right. Well, I'll, er...
09:10I'll call you.
09:12I'll call you.
09:27Hey. That's morning surgery done.
09:30Sorry I messed up.
09:32That email, the one that was meant for Tom.
09:34Oh, don't stress about it. These things happen.
09:37Thanks. I know you didn't want me here.
09:41SHE SIGHS
09:43Look, I might be Tracy's sister,
09:46it doesn't mean I think she's best for the job.
09:49I can't see her lasting five minutes here.
09:51The smells, the pee, the poo.
09:54And that's just the owners.
09:57Welcome to the team, Ella.
09:59Oh, and, erm, don't tell Tracy I told you this, but...
10:03..you're doing great.
10:11SHE SIGHS
10:16Urinal blocks.
10:18The blue ones were out.
10:20OK, I'll shove some more into the cash and carry order.
10:23Living the dream, eh?
10:25I'll see you tomorrow. Lids.
10:27Belle haven't mentioned anything about holiday to you, has she?
10:30No. Why?
10:32Well, Ness said she saw them both driving off yesterday, her and Tom.
10:35Reckons he's applied for some new job in Wales.
10:38Well, I'm sure they'll tell us about it in their own good time.
10:41Don't you think the old Belle might have mentioned it the minute it crossed her mind?
10:45Well, since we're watching the pair of them like a flock of hawks...
10:49I think it's cast of hawks.
10:51..is it any wonder they're avoiding us?
10:54You know, after our pile-on the other week.
10:57The poor lass has just lost a baby.
10:59And Tom's had an accident. Is it any wonder they want to get away?
11:02They've got all the support they need right here, though, haven't they?
11:05Friends, family, mental health team for Belle.
11:08And they've got the right to privacy.
11:11Whether we like it or not.
11:14You know, we need to respect that.
11:16Otherwise, there's a chance we might lose her. For good.
11:26Hi, through to Cain. Leave a message.
11:28Cain, it's me. Will you do me a favour? Will you ring me when you get this?
11:31We need to talk about Belle.
11:36SHE SIGHS
11:52Evan's asleep, so no hoovering, all right.
11:55How is he today?
11:57A lot better.
11:59We all are, since that toxic atmosphere's lifted.
12:02If you're referring to Kim, she's my friend.
12:05And this is still her house, and Will is still her husband.
12:09I'm sorry, love, but those ships have sailed.
12:12And if you want to keep your job, I keep it zipped.
12:15PHONE RINGS
12:21Hey. Give me a sec. I'm with the cleaner.
12:27My bedroom's a bombsite.
12:29So if you want to crack on, and the bathroom's need doing too,
12:32shut the door behind you when you leave.
12:43Sorry about that.
12:45I've got some news.
12:47Kim's left the building and she won't be coming back.
12:50Will's devastated, but once the trust is gone, it's gone.
12:54That marriage is over. Job done.
12:57Reckon I deserve a bonus, don't you?
13:05They've gone away.
13:07Not a word to any of us.
13:09Not a squeak about this new job of his.
13:11I mean, weren't they meant to be at some family dinner with you tonight?
13:15Maybe she knew you'd turn up and have another go.
13:18Cain, I'm being serious here.
13:20OK, fine, you tell me, hand on heart, that you think him and Bella sound...
13:25If they weren't, we'd know.
13:27It's Tom! I can smell it a mile off.
13:30It don't matter what aftershave he splashes on,
13:32there is some evil festering underneath.
13:35I mean, when they're together, no matter what happens,
13:38he never loses his cool, does he? Never shows an ounce of emotion.
13:41He's always really rational and reasonable and caring.
13:45He's just posh.
13:47Well, it's the control that gets me.
13:49And Tom's got too much of it.
13:51And Tom's got too much of it.
13:53She's just a shadow of herself whenever they're together,
13:55which is all the flipping time.
13:57I don't know, he just makes my hackles rise.
14:01And when he smiles at me,
14:03all I'm seeing are these bared teeth underneath.
14:06There's only one other man who made me feel like that.
14:10Bales.
14:12Yeah, everyone loved him, didn't they?
14:15Life and soul, mystic ingenuity,
14:17and it was only ever when he got me on his own
14:19that the mask slipped.
14:23I know, Belle,
14:25if someone so much as raised a finger in her direction...
14:29That's not how it works, though.
14:31Cos if he has, the minute she speaks out,
14:33she knows there'll be no going back,
14:35cos you'd batter him, wouldn't you?
14:37And he'd have to leave, the marriage would be history.
14:40She loves him way too much for that.
14:42So, what, we wait until she doesn't?
14:45I don't know.
14:47But if he's as dangerous as I think he is, we don't have long.
14:56If Kim's going to keep barging in whenever it suits her,
14:59you're going to have to get the locks changed.
15:01No need. She just came to pick some stuff up.
15:03And this is still her home.
15:05Not any more.
15:07She could have killed our daughter.
15:09There's no coming back from that.
15:11Do you know, before all of this,
15:13I'd have trusted her with me life.
15:15She's always been there for me. Well, for all of us.
15:19None of this was your fault.
15:21If I'd have known for just one second what she was up to...
15:25I mean, we share a home, we share a bed.
15:28And I still didn't have a clue.
15:30She wanted me out.
15:33But you stood up to her.
15:35You did the right thing for your family.
15:38I'm so proud of you.
15:40Yeah, and look what it cost me.
15:42Well, lucky it didn't cost Dawn her life.
15:45Even though it was me she was aiming for.
15:49Jealousy's a terrible thing.
15:51But we've got shared history, family, grandkids.
15:54Yeah, and with her gone,
15:56it means you two can pick up where you left off. Handy.
15:59Don't be daft.
16:00It's a good job I am here.
16:02Come off it.
16:04You're better off without that snake in your lives.
16:07Our future as a family, it starts here.
16:12Come on.
16:43Hello, Ella.
16:45Hey.
16:47Are you feeling unwell?
16:49I'll be fine.
16:54You know, Benpreet's doing afternoon surgeries,
16:57so if you need, I'm sure she can fit you in.
17:00I don't, but thanks for asking.
17:02If you'll excuse me, I'll...
17:06I know you don't want me here.
17:09I know you hate me.
17:12I mean, hate is a...
17:14very strong word.
17:17I'm the last person you wanted to see again.
17:20Now we'll be bumping into each other every day.
17:24Well, we're both adults. I'm sure we can...
17:27find a way through.
17:29Of course we will.
17:38You really don't seem well.
17:40So soon after your accident.
17:42I do have a duty of care, you know.
17:45I'm going to have to insist that you come to see Manpreet now.
17:49I can't do that.
17:52Because if I do, then it...
17:54it's all going to come out.
17:56Whether I like it or not.
17:59That wouldn't be fair on you.
18:02What wouldn't?
18:05Ella, look.
18:07What on earth are you talking about?
18:09I'm sorry.
18:13I'm pregnant.
18:24You what?
18:26I'm pregnant.
18:28With your baby.
18:34Liam.
18:40BIRDS CHIRP
18:45Liam?
18:51You get my message?
18:53Yeah. Three emojis.
18:55A flower, a skull and the exploding head.
18:58Not altogether sure what you're getting at.
19:00Rose. She's the spiker.
19:03Yeah, I've already worked that one out.
19:05But I've got proof.
19:07I were up at yours today and she took this call.
19:09She ordered me out the living room.
19:11But as soon as the back were turned before I left,
19:13I switched on the baby monitor.
19:15Good work. I heard everything.
19:17I heard her telling somebody that the job was done, that you'd left.
19:20She even asked for a bonus.
19:22Well, whoever she's working for must be desperate.
19:25For Rose, it's the best thing to do.
19:27Right, so you and me will go straight back up to Home Farm,
19:29tell Will and Dawn exactly what's happened,
19:31and you'll be back in your own bed by tonight.
19:33Or we could just sit tight
19:36and wait for the world's least competent plotter to trip herself up.
19:40Somehow I don't think it's going to take too long.
19:43Yeah, but if she's there and you're here...
19:48Look, I don't want to worry you,
19:50and Will has done nothing to encourage her.
19:54But the way she looks at him, it's like she's a hungry cat
19:58and he's a tin of sardines.
20:00Trust me, Rose is the least of my problems.
20:04I need to find out who's put her up to this.
20:07And when I do, they're going to regret it.
20:10But for now, we keep our friends close and our enemies closer.
20:15OK?
20:29Er, whiskey, please. Make it a double.
20:31Sure. Are you all right?
20:33No, no, I don't think I am.
20:37Liam, there's things we need to discuss.
20:39Make that two doubles.
20:40You've done it. You've actually told him.
20:42Told him what?
20:44Please, can we go somewhere else?
20:46Oh, what, you don't want to tell everyone?
20:48Oh, no, she's pregnant.
20:50Apparently.
20:51Oh, that's... great.
20:53See? I told you he's better out than in.
20:55Don't fall for it, Liam. I'd want proof if I were you.
20:58Well, shut it, you.
21:00So I take it you've taken a test?
21:02I only found out at the hospital after the crash.
21:04That was the last thing she was expecting to hear.
21:06They reckon I'm a couple of months gone.
21:08That was not on my bingo card today.
21:11Well, I suppose congratulations are in order.
21:14Chas, no...
21:15We'll be back in a minute.
21:18Right, so you say that you're pregnant.
21:20I assume you have some idea of a due date or a first scan?
21:23Have you ever thought about any of that? It's way too soon.
21:25Of course it is.
21:26I am pregnant, Liam. I'm not lying to you.
21:28No, cos it's not as if you've lied to me about anything before, is it?
21:31Liam, she's not lying. And you need to get your head round this.
21:34This does not change a thing.
21:37We are done.
22:02And new tonight on ITV1.
22:04Davina and Nicky share more heartwarming stories of hope and discovery
22:08in Long Lost Family at 9.
22:10Next, it's Coronation Street.
