01:44Don't creep up on me like that.
01:46We'll have someone celebrate you.
01:48You can't sell up. We won't let you.
01:51♪♪
02:01♪♪
02:12Why would you want to sell?
02:15You're surrounded by people who love you.
02:17Real family.
02:18What does that mean?
02:19Well, cousins, uncles, ex-husbands.
02:22Well, we's a bit more than that, weren't we?
02:24We's Martin and Sonia.
02:25We haven't been that for years.
02:26You've got to keep this place in the family.
02:28It's got original coving and that.
02:30And since when have you been sentimental
02:32about Victorian architecture?
02:34You ran away to New Zealand for years.
02:36Yeah, well, I came back, didn't I?
02:37Yeah, but you did it though, didn't you?
02:39You took a risk to make a better life.
02:41Hold on. You went to Cairin.
02:43It's not about geography, Martin.
02:44All right, Rhys and me will move wherever we can afford
02:47as long as he stops stressing about money.
02:50What?
02:52We like Greece, OK? We really do.
02:55Well, I'm glad to hear it.
02:58He's hardly the human dynamo, though, is he?
03:01Me and Rhys have been going for IVF for months.
03:03Why have you not said anything before?
03:05You haven't been moving away before.
03:07We are selling up
03:08because we cannot afford to start a family here.
03:10All right? I'm doing it because I love him.
03:12But earlier you told me he's an accountant
03:13who can't account for his own money
03:15and now you're selling up?
03:17That's a red flag.
03:19Red flag?
03:21Have you heard from Joey Brennan lately?
03:23What colour flag's sleeping with your own cousin?
03:25Huh? Magenta?
03:27And how's Ruby these days?
03:28What colour flag are you, Martin? Dusky peach?
03:30That's a bit harsh.
03:32No, what's harsh is you two suddenly deciding
03:34you can't live without me.
03:36Whilst you made lives for yourselves,
03:37I looked after Dot.
03:39And now I want to start my own family
03:41with a man I love.
03:42Yes, he may not be a human dynamo, all right,
03:44but he's the kindest man I've ever met.
03:46So I'm going to cook him a nice dinner,
03:48I'm going to tell him we're selling.
03:49Because after this lecture from you two hypocrites,
03:51Rhys is the only family I've got.
04:02You'd understand.
04:04I know you would.
04:08Yep, I'll do the room checks now.
04:19Oi, what you playing at?
04:22Yes, I've been waiting over an hour.
04:24Yeah, lamb kebab special.
04:26Kofta, doner and shish.
04:30PHONE RINGS
04:40Lost your key again, have you, Tommy?
04:42Yeah.
04:51Hello?
04:55Hello?
04:59Kathleen Slater?
05:01Who wants to know?
05:03I'm DC Mwado, this is Leslie Drinkwater
05:05from Walford Child Services.
05:07What do you want?
05:08We've had a report that a child
05:10is being physically abused at this address.
05:12May we step inside?
05:13Yeah, go for it.
05:15Thanks.
05:27Yeah, I mean, I'm a bit surprised to be honest, yeah.
05:30Yeah, I know, it's out of order.
05:32Oh, Penny filling you in?
05:34It's outrageous, isn't it?
05:36What's that?
05:37Phil demoting me over a bottle of fizz.
05:40Like that's the worst crime to ever happen in this place.
05:43You do know Phil, don't you?
05:45How is that helpful, Zak?
05:48Look, Penny, do you think you could just have a word with Phil?
05:51Just tell him, you know, you need Chelsea's experience
05:55to make your night a success.
05:57I spoke to Phil already.
05:58Oh, great, lifesaver. What did he say?
06:01He appointed me as the new manager.
06:07What?
06:09Well, there was a vacancy and he clearly saw someone
06:12he could trust to turn this place around.
06:16So you shafted me.
06:18Hi, everyone.
06:20As the new manager, I just want to make it clear
06:23that theft and dishonesty are not workplace values
06:26we share here at Peggy's.
06:28Anyone caught stealing will be fired on the spot.
06:31OK? Thank you.
06:34I thought you lot had enough to deal with
06:36without responding to crank calls.
06:38Miss Slater, this is a police investigation
06:40into reports of assault on a child.
06:43We all have your child's best interests at heart.
06:45Don't patronise me in my own home.
06:47I understand this is overwhelming, but I assure you
06:49we're not here as judge and jury.
06:51Yeah, I'll bet.
06:53A cup of tea might help settle the nerves.
06:57You're allowed caffeine this week.
06:59No. My body's a temple.
07:01Lucky you. Mine's a crime scene.
07:04Milk, three sugars, thanks.
07:06Was it the neighbours that made the call?
07:08I don't blame them, the noise that comes out of here.
07:10I've got three boys, you know what they're like.
07:13Was it the neighbours that made the call?
07:15It was your son, Tommy.
07:18He said he's been physically assaulted by you.
07:24I'm sorry.
07:27I need the loo, or you're going to arrest me for that and all?
07:31You're not under arrest. Please don't be long.
07:34This process will be over much faster with your cooperation.
07:39Hang on.
07:47Get in. What is it?
07:49Look, I haven't got long, all right?
07:51Tommy's told the old builder I hit him.
07:53They're in there with the social.
07:55Well, he's obviously lying, isn't he?
07:57He's not lying. He punched me in the stomach last night,
08:00so I shoved him and he went flying.
08:02I really thought I hurt him.
08:04Why did he punch you?
08:06He said he wants Phil to be his dad,
08:08and I said, he can't. Alf is your dad.
08:11OK, this ain't about me, all right?
08:13Look, I shouldn't have hurt my boy.
08:15They're going to take him away from me.
08:17This is really bad. Look at this.
08:20Oh, God.
08:22OK, you tell him what he did to you,
08:24then you say it was self-defence.
08:26Are you kidding? He lives in a violent home.
08:28They'll take him all away from us.
08:30No-one's taking no-one away, all right?
08:32Well, I'm not chancing it, all right?
08:34I want you to talk to Tommy, and you tell him to tell them that he's lying,
08:38or we will lose the family.
08:40OK.
08:42Right.
08:55Come here.
09:00Enjoying yourself?
09:02Someone left their phone.
09:04Oh, lesson number one, knock before entering my office.
09:08You snake.
09:10That's Miss Snake to you.
09:12Drop the act, Penny.
09:14A couple of hours ago, we were the Wicked Stepsisters on the same team.
09:18Look, I like you, I really do.
09:20I like you too.
09:22So then just tell Phil you'd rather I kept my job.
09:25Come on, and we'll say no more about it.
09:27Really?
09:29Yeah. Because it's the right thing to do.
09:32Like I gave you this club night because it's the right thing to do.
09:36You deserve a break.
09:38Oh, my saviour.
09:40I did not mean like that.
09:42I mean, I see a lot of myself in you.
09:44You're ambitious, you're smart, you're tough.
09:47You've got a lot to offer this place.
09:50I like you.
09:53So you'll tell Phil you made a mistake?
09:56No.
09:59I said I liked you.
10:01I didn't say I'd relinquish my power to someone undeserving of the role.
10:06And as my Wicked Stepsister says, I do have a lot to offer this place.
10:11OK?
10:13Oh, and Chelsea, lesson number two,
10:17don't let your emotions get in the way of business.
10:29PHONE VIBRATES
10:47CLOCK TICKS
10:54PHONE RINGS
11:01Hello?
11:03Oh, no, he's not here at the moment.
11:05I'm his partner. Can I take a message?
11:17Don't worry, mate, it might never happen!
11:42How could you?
11:44How could you do it?
11:45I'm sorry. I did it with Sonia.
11:47Just leave it. Sonia's right. It's her decision.
11:49What is? Sacrificing everything for a bloke who can't even wipe his own bum?
11:53Wow.
11:54Sonia, she's got a surprise for you.
11:56Have a good evening.
12:04DOG BARKS
12:16DOOR OPENS
12:30Come and sit down.
12:32Why?
12:34Just come and sit down.
12:46DOG WHIMPERS
12:51I've got some sad news.
12:53What, the baby? Not again?
12:55No, nothing like that.
12:58They tried to call you mobile, but you didn't answer.
13:03The care home called.
13:06Debbie died tonight.
13:09I'm so sorry.
13:12SHE SIGHS
13:14You don't have to say anything.
13:18I know you loved her.
13:20And she knew that, too.
13:23Can I get you anything? Cup of tea, whisky?
13:26No.
13:33Did this happen?
13:36No.
13:38No, I think we should go and find out how she passed.
13:41To the care home? Yeah.
13:43We go together. Why?
13:45Well, in my experience, when someone dies,
13:49it's best to get all the information straight away.
13:52The last thing you need is unanswered questions driving you mad.
13:57Yeah, the sooner we go, the sooner Debbie will be at peace.
14:03And she deserves that.
14:05You both do.
14:08SHE SOBS
14:18If you're hanging around here all summer,
14:21you've got to follow my rules, yeah?
14:24This cork is going to be floating in the bog.
14:28So every time you go in for a little tinkle,
14:31you've got to aim for it, cos I'm fed up with having wet feet.
14:35What about Dad? He does it, too.
14:37Oi, oi, Mr Cheeky.
14:39You can... Your turn to teach, Dad.
14:42Oi, mind your neck, Emma.
14:50Hey, you all right?
14:53Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy.
14:55Little blue-eyed boy.
14:57But I wouldn't melt.
14:59All right? Is that who you are?
15:02Or is it the other Tommy?
15:05The nasty little thug...
15:09..who punched his mum?
15:11And then, what, you grasped her up?
15:15Why? Because she hit your back?
15:18Who's the real Tommy, Mooney?
15:23We split up in January.
15:26Break-ups are always hardest on the kids, aren't they?
15:29I thought we were getting through it.
15:31And this was Mr Mitchell? He's the boy's father?
15:34No.
15:35So that is...?
15:37Alfie Moon.
15:39He's the twins' dad, he's Tommy's stepdad.
15:41And Tommy's father is...? Michael Moon.
15:43Another Moon? Yeah.
15:45Alfie's cousin, he's dead.
15:47Sorry, you said you weren't judging jury,
15:49but I feel like I'm being burnt at the stake here.
15:51Just establishing some background, not trying to embarrass you.
15:54I've got a past, all right?
15:56Who hasn't?
15:57I'm on marriage number three. Two men, one woman.
16:00Not at the same time, I hasten to add.
16:03I'm a brilliant mum, all right? The best.
16:06No-one fights harder for their kids than me.
16:09I wish I had me as a mum.
16:11And I know what it's like for your parents to bail on you,
16:14so that's why I'd never, ever, yeah, do it to my own boys.
16:18Do you have thoughts on why Tommy would make this accusation?
16:22He's just an angry teenage boy who hero-worships my ex-fiancée.
16:27The local hard nut. He runs the boxing gym.
16:30Was Tommy exposed to violence in that relationship?
16:33Not between me and Phil.
16:35But there was violence? No.
16:40We need to speak with Tommy.
16:43Can't you give him a few days, just let him calm down a bit?
16:46Tonight. Where is he right now?
16:50She hurt me. I could have died.
16:53You punched your mum and grassed her up? That's so evil.
17:00Where's my kind, funny boy gone?
17:03I ain't your boy. You ain't my dad. Phil is.
17:06Well, I wish he was.
17:08When him and mum were together, people respected me at school.
17:11People looked up to him, so they looked up to me.
17:14You think you get respect by hanging around in someone's shadow?
17:17You earn respect. How do you know?
17:19Because I'm a better man than Phil and a better dad. How?
17:23You know...
17:26..I thought we were best mates.
17:30Always having a laugh.
17:32Me trying to give you everything that I never had as a kid.
17:35Yeah, I know.
17:38It's a bit desperate.
17:40And I don't want a sad-o 60-year-old mate.
17:43Don't you talk to me like that.
17:45I miss Phil. He took us to Disneyland on holiday, not some poxy caravan.
17:49And I've got my own room in his house.
17:51OK. Well, why don't you just run over to Daddy Phil, eh?
17:55Have your pick of the bedrooms in his big, empty house,
17:58and then you ask yourself this, where's his family gone, eh?
18:01Oh, well, they've run to the hills cos he's a bully and a cheat.
18:04Yeah, well, he'll still have more time for me than you and mum ever do.
18:08That don't matter now, Tommy.
18:10Cos social service would probably take you,
18:12stick you in a foster home the other side of London.
18:14Yeah, well, I'll just say I'm living at Phil's.
18:16Oh, shut up.
18:17Stupid. You don't get it, do you? Huh?
18:20Your phone call started a chain of events that we have no control over.
18:25And you and your brothers will get taken into care,
18:28separated from me, your mum and each other.
18:35You haven't really thought this through, have you, Tommy?
18:48I'm sorry. It was so unexpected.
18:51I guess it was pneumonia Debbie had a while back.
18:54I didn't spot any signs earlier.
18:56Earlier? What were you doing here? What time?
18:59About nine-ish.
19:01I'm sorry I was so grumpy with you earlier about not signing in.
19:04Don't seem important now.
19:06No, I'm just glad I got to say goodbye.
19:08Is Debbie still in her room?
19:10Yeah, I'd say go on in and see her,
19:12but the police have declared it a potential crime scene.
19:15Why? Well, don't worry. It's standard procedure.
19:18Officer, this is Mr Colwell, Debbie's husband.
19:22Hello, I'm DC Webster.
19:24Once we've finished speaking with Nurse Jasmine,
19:26may we have a moment of your time?
19:38So, you've managed bars before?
19:40Yeah, yeah. I'm all about hospitality.
19:43Oh, she is. Ask our last employer. Juliette Dubois, weren't it?
19:47You know who you've hired, don't you?
19:49Jack Branny's daughter ain't going to be a crook.
19:53No, she ain't just a crook. She's a drug dealer.
19:56One of Paris' finest until she got run out of town
19:58dragging her own cousin down with her.
20:00Oh, don't bring me into this.
20:02She's lying. I left Paris because I was bored.
20:05She's going to have your bar crawling in drug dealers in no time.
20:09I hate drug dealers.
20:11There's only one thing I hate more than drug dealers.
20:14Grasses.
20:15She shafted me, Phil.
20:17Yeah, I know. She's shown the drive that the bar's been crying out for.
20:24Now, you're on probation.
20:27Don't let me down.
20:34You know what the kids are like during the school holidays, staying out late.
20:38If Tommy's a no-show,
20:40we have to report that you don't know where your son is at 10.25 at night.
20:44I'm sure you understand the ramifications of that.
20:46Just wait a little bit longer, please.
20:48Oh, yeah. Yes.
20:50Sorry we're late. We got stuck on the tube.
20:54Tommy, how are you?
20:56OK.
20:57Hello, Tommy. I'm Leslie Drinkwater from Child Services.
21:00This is DC and Wado.
21:02We'd like to chat about what you told our colleague on the phone.
21:05It's all right. They're on our side.
21:07Right, can we just get on with this, yeah?
21:09Miss Slater, we do need an adult present to support Tommy, but it can't be you.
21:13Oh, that's all right, Kat. I've got this.
21:16It's all good. Go on.
21:18Thanks.
21:21Tommy, do you want to come sit down?
21:28Sorry to keep you. This is DC Leland.
21:31Hi.
21:33Just a few questions.
21:35Just a few questions. Nothing to worry about.
21:38I'm not worried.
21:40I'm heartbroken. I'm grief-stricken.
21:42I'm not worried.
21:45It's been a hard day.
21:47Mr Colwell, please could you confirm you're Mrs Debbie Colwell's next of kin?
21:53Yes, I am.
21:55We have a good understanding of Debbie's stroke that brought her here,
21:58but any recent medical complications of note?
22:02Yes. Pneumonia.
22:04Yeah, she was unwell some time ago.
22:07Thank you. We'll inform the coroner, make sure they incorporate that into the post-mortem.
22:11Post-mortem? But we know all about Debbie's condition.
22:15Why do you need... Why can't you just leave her alone?
22:19She's been in limbo for years.
22:22She deserves dignity at long last.
22:25I'm sorry, it's routine procedure.
22:28I'd like to take him home now.
22:30OK, it's fine.
22:32Thank you. Come on.
22:43Well, Thomas explained he was upset with you because you didn't buy him the trainers he wanted,
22:48so he called us out of spite.
22:50He's retracted his accusation.
22:52Thank God.
22:54Sorry, Mum.
22:55OK, lovely. Well, that's that then, yeah?
22:58We won't be closing the file. Not yet.
23:01Why not?
23:02Ordinarily, during term time, we'd hand the report over to the school,
23:05but as Tommy's just broken up for summer, we'd like to keep the file open.
23:09As a precaution.
23:10A precaution?
23:11Well, sure, there won't be anything to worry about.
23:13Eh, Tommy?
23:15We'll support you as a family at all stages of the investigation.
23:19Thanks for the tea.
23:20Bye. Bye.
23:21Bye.
23:22Thank you. Take care, bubba.
23:27What does that mean? Are we in the clear or what?
23:30I'm not going to call him again if that's what you're worried about.
23:33Tommy, I love you.
23:39If he still hates me, why did he retract his statement?
23:42Kat, Kat, Kat, despite what it looks like, you know, he still loves us.
23:46He doesn't want to lose his family, and I promise you, he will get through this.
23:50I don't think so.
23:52There is no coming back from this.
24:01Right, let's head to bed.
24:04You're going to need your sleep.
24:06OK, I'm just going to get some water. Do you want some?
24:10No, I'll see you upstairs.
24:20What's all this?
24:22Oh.
24:24Yeah, sorry, sweetheart.
24:30I seem a bit silly now.
24:39You're going to put the house on the market?
24:41Yeah, I was.
24:43You've done so much for me, you know,
24:45and I know how much you've been struggling with all the debts.
24:48Well, there you go again, protecting me at your own expense.
24:53Look, I know you paid the care home fees this time round,
24:56but there were always going to be others.
24:58And we owed Debbie so much money for the IVF.
25:01And I want you to be excited about the baby,
25:04and that can't happen if you're always worried about money.
25:07You love this place. I love you more.
25:11I guess we...
25:13we don't have to sell now.
25:19What's funny?
25:23Darling, why are you laughing?
25:28Look...
25:35Debbie died today.
25:37You were going to put the house on the market tomorrow.
25:43Doesn't seem fair, does it?
25:45It's not fair at all.
25:47She's dead.
25:49Debbie's dead.
25:51Oh, please.
25:53You look after her to the very end. She's at peace now.
25:56I loved her.
25:58I know you did, and I'll be forever grateful to her.
26:01Cos I've got you now, and I'm never going to let you go.
26:07Come on.
