00:00Don't leave me hanging.
00:29We should film this, you know.
00:31Stop.
00:32No, I'm being serious. It's like a proper feel-good old people story, innit?
00:35You know it could go viral if...
00:37Wait.
00:41That's OK.
00:44Oh, yeah.
00:46I just need some air.
00:48No.
00:52Don't bother.
00:55I'll go.
00:56No, Eve, Eve, listen.
00:57Eve!
01:02Well.
01:05All this drama has given me an appetite.
01:08What do you think?
01:10What for this?
01:12You're welcome to join us.
01:17I'm guessing you don't have plans with Eve.
01:28Did I tell you that Annie's booked in for the hospital on the 19th for her teeth?
01:33Johnny.
01:35Well, it's good, isn't it? I mean, well, not good, but...
01:37Mum, can you stop? We need to talk about this.
01:42Sit down.
01:48I'm sorry.
01:50I'm sorry.
01:52I'm sorry.
01:54I'm sorry.
01:56I'm sorry.
02:03I know you don't get it.
02:04Of course I don't.
02:06What Annie's going through, right, is my fault.
02:10If Dean admits to the police what he did, then it's a new start.
02:14You know, I can be the mum she deserves. I can move on.
02:17Mum, he is playing you.
02:19OK, he is promising you something he will never admit.
02:22And he is away for life. He is gone.
02:25But if I get on that stand and crumble, then he gets away with everything.
02:28All right, this deal is a sure thing.
02:30Why are you so sure he'll stick to his word now?
02:32You could do all of this and he could do whatever he wants.
02:35I'm not stupid.
02:37I'll get it agreed, a signed statement before I go to the police.
02:40What, and then jobs are given, is it?
02:43You're an alcoholic, Mum.
02:46There is no quick solution.
02:48OK, yeah, Dean started this, but since Keanu, it's been next level.
02:51Yeah, which is why I'm taking action, all right? Positive action.
02:56What about the next thing that comes up?
02:58And the next, and then he's back.
03:00All right, you put Dean away for life and you can rebuild.
03:04Get back everything you've lost.
03:06I'm going to. And this is the first step.
03:10Mum's left you in charge.
03:12Yeah.
03:13Has Peter said anything?
03:14Well, I guess Cindy's made a decision, so he has to respect that.
03:18Did you make that badge yourself?
03:20Yeah, I did.
03:22I wonder where Mum had to go in such a hurry.
03:24Yeah, yeah, she didn't say. She just put me in charge.
03:28It will be OK, won't it?
03:31I reckon she played you.
03:33Yeah. Are you going to help?
03:36I've been on my feet all day.
03:38You've been shopping.
03:39You're the manager. You can do this.
03:43Oh, er, sorry. Hi, hi.
03:46Hello, ladies. Er, sorry, table for one, two, three, four.
03:51Right.
03:53Do you remember when you were little and we used to have those sleepover nights?
03:57All of us in the same bed, watching films, all snuggled up together.
04:01I thought I could do the same thing with Annie and Ollie.
04:05You two, if there's room.
04:10You all right?
04:11Yeah, yeah. Um...
04:13I'm just thinking...
04:16You can't just retract a witness statement and expect them to be fine with it.
04:20I know it ain't going to be easy.
04:22What about the others?
04:24This whole murder case opens up again.
04:26What if Sharon goes down for it?
04:28No, no. Jack said they could still prosecute Dean on the evidence they've got.
04:32It's not going to come back on Sharon.
04:33Jack said that?
04:34Yeah. And I'll make sure of it.
04:36We'll just stick to our original story.
04:39Oh, Mum. You haven't thought this through at all.
04:42I will protect them.
04:43How? And why are you even willing to risk it?
04:46I have to.
04:52Oi!
04:54What was that about?
04:55Daisy, I... Look, I was surprised.
04:57So you thought you'd mug her off in front of a pub full of people?
05:00Right, I just needed to talk to her.
05:02Good luck with that. You made her look like an idiot.
05:04That was the last thing I wanted to do when you know it.
05:06Right, I just need to explain and find out what she was thinking.
05:08She was thinking about you two.
05:10Because she loves Sharon, you know that.
05:12Yeah, and I love her.
05:13But a proposal? Marriage?
05:16Stacey, you've only been out five minutes.
05:18Do you know, I thought even I were on the same page.
05:20This has come out of nowhere.
05:22Well, it ain't come out of nowhere, though, is it?
05:24What are you talking about?
05:26Are you stupid?
05:28Who do you think's been winding her up?
05:34So what shall we toast to?
05:36True love?
05:40Ah, that relationship.
05:42Ah, that relationship was doomed from the start.
05:44You start anything in such a grubby way, it's bound to fail.
05:50They do love each other.
05:52How long do you reckon she was down on one knee for?
05:54I thought proper long.
05:56Ah, it was ridiculous.
05:58Wasn't it, Vinnie?
06:00Yeah, I mean, they didn't need to rub it in your face, did they?
06:03Yeah, I mean, proposing in public is so darn out anyway.
06:06No wonder she mugged her off.
06:08Oi, show some respect.
06:10Just saying it how it is.
06:12And you, get off your phone.
06:14I ain't disrespecting no-one. Just keeping my mind off the dialysis.
06:17Well, read a book.
06:19Read a book?
06:20Is this really how you want to spend your time?
06:22Leave him alone.
06:24Yeah, no good can come of it.
06:29Never a truer word was said.
06:35Mum's going to pull a witness statement.
06:37She can't.
06:39What's she playing at?
06:41Why don't you tell him, Jack?
06:42What?
06:44What's it got to do with you?
06:46I spoke to her.
06:48And you told her Dean would get convicted without her testimony.
06:51Jack! What were you thinking?
06:52I was trying to calm her down, all right?
06:54She was terrified and I was worried about her.
06:56But without her statement, Dean gets off and I'm back in the frame.
06:59Yeah, well, we all are.
07:01Well, I mean, you, but the rest of us,
07:03accessory to murder, moving a body,
07:05lying about it for the past eight months.
07:07God knows what Phil's going to say.
07:09Look, don't tell Phil.
07:10Why not?
07:11Because he'll go in there all guns blazing,
07:13it's the last thing we need.
07:14Right, can we not talk about her like she's some loose cannon?
07:16OK, she's your mate, remember?
07:17Oi, just everyone needs to calm down, all right?
07:19Don't think you're the best at telling people what to do, mate.
07:22I'll talk to Linda.
07:24If she knows what's at stake, she wouldn't do it.
07:26Yeah, well, we'd keep it between us and just tread carefully.
07:30What, like Jack did?
07:32I won't tell Phil unless I have to.
07:34But I'm doing this my way.
07:37Me and Linda have got each other's backs.
07:39She'll listen to me.
07:43Fish and chips, couple of gherkins, loads of salt, loads of vinegar.
07:47Enjoy.
07:50Oh, come on, Nan, cheer up, will you?
07:52Crack a smile.
07:53Told you, I'm not in the mood.
07:56What is it, Stevie?
07:57Don't be daft.
07:58I only knew him for five minutes.
08:00But?
08:01But nothing.
08:02He was a mate.
08:03Yeah, well, I'm your mate.
08:04Oh, he was a mate my age.
08:06Forget that.
08:08Tell you what you need, Nan.
08:10A hobby.
08:11Right, shut your eyes.
08:12Picture this, yeah?
08:14Great tits.
08:16Fluffy back boobies.
08:18I ain't a lesbian.
08:20In fact, Elvis had a pair of knockers on him, but that's not why I liked him.
08:24I'm talking about bird watching, you filthy moon.
08:26What, you think I'm Bill Oddie?
08:28I mean, in the right lighting, you might get away with it.
08:31Listen, all right?
08:32Bird watching, it's good for you.
08:34Me and Mum did it.
08:35It's calming and peaceful.
08:37It connects you with nature.
08:38You could do with that.
08:39The only connection I've got with nature is the rats on the tube.
08:42Exactly what I mean.
08:43Yeah.
08:45Oi, watch it.
08:47What's her problem?
08:48Honestly, it's nothing I can't fix.
08:50Eh?
08:51I'm going to get her mate back.
08:53Oh.
08:54I didn't know she had any.
08:55Listen, she's got a heart of gold.
08:57You've just got to dig for it a little bit.
08:59As long as you ain't tapping me up to be her mate, eh?
09:01No.
09:02Stevie Mitchell, actually.
09:03Her and him, they're like Bonnie and Clyde.
09:05What, murderers?
09:06Besties.
09:08Anyway, I'm going to reunite them.
09:12We need to get some more liquor on,
09:14and I don't think you charged the last people the right amount.
09:16Yeah, OK, OK, I'll get to it.
09:17It's just these potless pies, they take so much prep.
09:19I don't know why. Dad thought it would be a good idea.
09:21Healthy, ain't they?
09:22Give them a break now.
09:23Oh, sorry, sorry.
09:24I'm calling my mum.
09:25No, please don't.
09:26This is disgusting.
09:27I'm not waiting for that.
09:29So...
09:38She's not answering.
09:39I can handle it, it's fine.
09:41If you don't stop saying it's fine, I'm going to shove that pie.
09:44Waitress!
09:52Oh, hi.
09:53What can I get you?
09:59It's much better.
10:02Bobby, that table are saying they're going to leave
10:04because they've waited too long for their food.
10:06Well, just tell them it'll be five minutes.
10:08And that guy said the mash has more lumps than a camel with mumps.
10:11Fine, mash is off the menu, then.
10:13In a pie and mash shop?
10:15Yeah, yeah, you're right, sorry.
10:17I just don't know what to do, Anna.
10:20But, look, we've only got 15 minutes until close.
10:23Let's just hang on until then.
10:25No.
10:26No?
10:28This...
10:30..is your moment.
10:32We're not going home until everyone here has the best meal of their life.
10:36Really?
10:37Come on, Bobby, get back in that kitchen.
10:41OK, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:43I'm really sorry about the wait, everyone.
10:45It won't be long, I promise, I promise.
10:47Excuse me, everyone.
10:50I know there have been a couple of issues this afternoon,
10:53but if you bear with us, we will give you fresh food on the house
10:57and we're staying open until everyone is fed.
11:07Want some?
11:08No, I'll stick to the tea, thanks.
11:11Sure?
11:13I knew Nisha would be involved in this somehow.
11:15No, it's just been getting in her ear.
11:17You're dripping poison.
11:18Niggling at her and making comments about how close you and Ayesha are.
11:23Me and Ayesha?
11:24Oh, come on.
11:25Eve should know better. She knows what Nisha's like.
11:29What?
11:31Well, I mean, he has got a point.
11:33You two are pretty close. You've got shared history.
11:36I mean, no wonder Eve feels pushed out.
11:38We went through a lot together
11:40and seeing her has brought a lot of things back and not all good.
11:45Me and Eve, we're solid. She knows that.
11:48Does she?
11:49She just proposed out of the blue.
11:51And maybe she wanted you to say yes.
11:55Oh.
12:00Are you going to sit down?
12:01No, I can't stay long.
12:04You're withdrawing your statement.
12:07Sharon, let me explain...
12:08Look, please don't do this.
12:10If you pull your statement, it'll all come back on me.
12:13No, no, this will protect you.
12:15I'm the weak link.
12:17You know, if I get on that stand and fall apart, then we've lost everything.
12:20I mean, this way, Dean still goes down.
12:22You really think it's going to be that easy?
12:25This isn't just about you, Linda.
12:27No, no, it's about Annie and Ollie, OK?
12:30They need me.
12:31You're a good mum. You've always put them first.
12:33Oh, we both know that ain't true.
12:38Annie's got to have four teeth out, under general.
12:41And the dentist made it clear.
12:43Now it's down to me, my drinking.
12:47Well, I've prioritised everything.
12:49Now it's down to me, my drinking.
12:52Well, I've prioritised it over the kids, haven't I?
12:56Look, Dean going on record, it's closure.
13:00And then I can focus on the kids, you know, be the mum that I was to the others.
13:05What are they offering you?
13:08Dean will admit to rape.
13:10Finally.
13:12And I'll be free of him.
13:15Did you withdraw your statement?
13:17If I truly thought this was the best thing for you,
13:20I would face any consequences, honestly.
13:23But you're ill, Linda.
13:26And Dean admitting to what he did to you, it ain't going to fix that.
13:31Only you can do that.
13:34And I know it's hard, I know.
13:36I saw it with my mum, but we can help you.
13:43This ain't going to end well.
13:46You're making a deal with the devil, please.
13:48Please think about it.
13:54I'm doing what's right.
13:58And you're giving me no option.
14:12Well, you certainly know how to liven up an afternoon.
14:14Pete's working.
14:16Aren't they going to wonder where you are?
14:18No, Bobby won't even have time to think about it.
14:20He'll be rushed off his feet.
14:23What if him and Anna start asking questions?
14:25I mean, it's all a bit close to home, isn't it?
14:27Well, yeah, literally.
14:30Look, we need to come up with a better arrangement.
14:34You can't just keep sneaking around like this.
14:36Yeah, but it's exciting, isn't it?
14:38And it's worth the risk, yeah?
14:41And so long as Ian's away, we're safe here.
14:45So what you're saying is we should make the most of this?
14:50I've got about ten minutes until I need to call Xavier.
14:52Oh! Race you then.
15:00Johnny?
15:12HE SIGHS
15:18Excuse me.
15:20I want a word.
15:22I'm sorry, Phil, but you can't change my mind.
15:24Get you off your high horse, Linda. Yeah.
15:27I know you. I am you.
15:29Oh, please.
15:30You want a magic bullet? It's going to stop your drinking, eh?
15:33Well, guess what? There ain't one.
15:36And you think your drinking's bad now.
15:38Wait till Dean Wicks gets out of prison.
15:40And your best mate gets banged up for a crime she didn't commit.
15:43A crime that you committed.
15:46And you think, oh, just let that go, eh?
15:49Let Sharon go down so she can lose another child.
15:52No. No.
15:54No, you don't want to muck about with me, Linda.
15:59If you do hear anything, it doesn't matter what time...
16:01Yes, I promise I'll let you know.
16:03Do you know, I just need to speak to her.
16:05Just hear her voice.
16:07You give her time.
16:08I mean, it's not every day you get pied off in public, is it?
16:10Oh, I could kill Nish.
16:12Yeah, well, we tried that.
16:14It's OK, he just wants to get a rise out of you.
16:16Just don't give him the satisfaction.
16:19Oh, God.
16:21Ladies.
16:24It's been quite a day for you.
16:25Don't. Come on, just leave him.
16:27No, no, no, just send him my condolences.
16:29I don't need anything from you.
16:30Losing one lesbian lover is unfortunate.
16:33But losing two in the same day?
16:36Oh.
16:37He's just careless.
16:39If Eve doesn't come back, I will kill you.
16:42Do you understand me? I will kill you.
16:44And I will enjoy every second of it.
16:47Why would I care? I'm already dying.
16:49Not fast enough.
17:01None of you understand.
17:03I do.
17:04I do.
17:05Being on the stand would be too hard for you.
17:07So you're just going to dump everyone else in it?
17:09That is not what I'm doing.
17:10And this ain't about Annie or Ollie.
17:12This is all about you, cos that's all you do, is think about yourself.
17:15Now, if Sharon goes down for this,
17:18you are no Aussie, Jo.
17:20She won't go down.
17:21And I will take care of the others.
17:23How?
17:25I'll work it out.
17:26Well, that'd be a first, wouldn't it?
17:27Because you, you're a liability.
17:29And if anyone deserves to get banged up for this, it's you.
17:32And it'd be the best thing for your kids and all.
17:35You can get out of here and tell Sharon that I won't be threatened by anyone.
17:39Least of all you.
17:59You sure you're OK?
18:00I'm sure you're OK. You might need to get checked out, Dad.
18:02I'm fine.
18:03I'll get you some water, OK?
18:06Vinny, Avani, you go home.
18:09Or I'll wear a nugget.
18:11Well, I mean, if that word is inheritance,
18:14I think I should stay.
18:15Avani, nice try.
18:17Come on.
18:19I'll be fine.
18:20Sure?
18:22See you later.
18:30You know how you say you don't care what Dudley's doing?
18:35I don't.
18:36Then why don't you leave her alone?
18:41Because you do care, isn't it?
18:43Of course you do. Everyone can see it.
18:47I'm sorry.
18:52I'm dying.
18:55It puts things into perspective.
18:58You focus on what's important.
19:03There's only one person I want by my side when I'm dying.
19:08My Sookie.
19:11But you know she's with Eve.
19:14She hates you.
19:16Love and hate aren't that far apart.
19:20Your bond like mine and Sookie's, that doesn't just go.
19:24The first few years of our marriage were magical.
19:27They were the happiest of my life.
19:29You know, it was us against the world.
19:33And if I could have that again, just for one moment,
19:38I'd die a happy man.
19:42And she don't want that.
19:44Not that she's... she's gay.
19:48She's the one.
19:50The one.
19:55Sorry, but I don't...
19:57But I don't see it happening.
20:02Your God is good.
20:05I just pray that he grants my last dying wish.
20:16Fraser?
20:18Yeah, it's Linda Carter.
20:20Can you meet me now?
20:23What, Peggy's?
20:24Okay, yeah, I'll be there.
20:29Johnny!
20:30You going out?
20:31Uh, yeah. I, um...
20:33I thought I'd go to a meeting.
20:35Oh, well, I'll walk you there.
20:36No, no. Uh, I need some time on my own.
20:40I've put Annie and Ollie to bed, you know, brushing their teeth.
20:43Good.
20:45Okay, so I'll, um...
20:46Yeah, see you later.
20:47Yeah, okay.
20:57There you go, shrimpy.
20:58Cheers, Fred.
20:59Enjoy.
21:00Teddy!
21:02You all right?
21:03Yes, yes, great, thanks.
21:04Listen, um, how's your dad?
21:07My dad?
21:08Yeah, Stevie.
21:09Look, he's a ledge round here. We all really, really miss him.
21:12You don't know if he's got plans to come back, do you?
21:14I didn't know you and him were that close.
21:16Well, well, he's more my nan, Mo.
21:19Look, you don't suppose that I could call him, do you?
21:22You know, just to be neighbourly, polite.
21:24Like a neighbourhood watch?
21:25No, nothing like that.
21:27Cos he ain't your neighbour, mate.
21:28Look, what's your name?
21:30Freddie.
21:31Freddie.
21:32Freddie.
21:33Well, me and me dad, we're not on the greatest of terms right now,
21:35so I probably won't be passing on your best, if you don't mind.
21:38Right.
21:40Um...
21:42He does know who I am.
21:43You know, I just thought that maybe...
21:45Look, a word of advice, Sam.
21:47Think less.
21:50And I'll have...
21:51cotton chips.
21:55Right.
21:56Sure.
22:05Anyway, Ralph, decent is either a fortune
22:07or a two-bed at the end of the matinee.
22:10I can't believe Grey's doing this.
22:13But maybe Bernie will come up with something.
22:16Yeah. Fingers crossed.
22:18Yeah.
22:20I've got to hand it to you.
22:21You've played a blinder.
22:24I'm doing what's right.
22:25So, when are you going to the police?
22:28You are joking.
22:30I get the signed statement first.
22:32Someone's been watching too much Taggart.
22:34Dean signs a witness statement.
22:37He confesses to what he did to me.
22:40Once that is with the police,
22:42then I will withdraw my statement.
22:44And we want your guarantee.
22:46This is the end of it.
22:48No more accusations, no more lies.
22:50The end.
22:51The end?
22:52And you'll sign a statement saying that?
22:56Yeah, whatever you want.
22:58Thanks for asking.
23:00I'll have a whiskey.
23:01Neat.
23:11Yeah, it's me.
23:14All done.
23:16Please.
23:17She's eating out the palm of my hand.
23:21I'll see you later, hon.
23:28Cheers.
23:30What do you need me to sign?
23:34Fraser MacAulay?
23:35Yes.
23:36Jack!
23:37I'm arresting you for blackmail and perverting the course of justice.
23:39Hold on a minute.
23:40No, no, you've got this wrong.
23:41You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence
23:43if you do not mention when questioned something which you later alarm and call.
23:47Anything else you do say may be given in evidence.
23:50You're barking up the wrong tree here, mate.
23:52There's no need for handcuffs.
23:54I haven't done anything wrong.
24:00It's for the best.
24:01It's not like Phil to get someone else to do his dirty work.
24:03He must be getting soft in his old age.
24:06Thanks, Jack.
24:07You're welcome.
24:11I couldn't let you do it, Mum.
24:15Thank you so much.
24:16Thanks for your patience.
24:18Thanks.
24:26Woo-hoo!
24:28Thank you so much.
24:29Oh, I don't know how I'm going to repay you, Anna.
24:33We both did it.
24:34We both did it.
24:36We make a great team, don't we?
24:39You want to wash or dry?
24:40I want to lock the door and run away.
24:43Bobby!
24:45What the hell is going on?
24:47I knew what I was doing.
24:48You were throwing away everything.
24:49I was ending this.
24:50Mum, it's OK.
24:51None of this is OK.
24:52I have got this.
24:53No, I don't want you to have this, John.
24:56I want to be your mum.
24:57I want to be the mum that I was.
24:59I want Annie and Ollie to know what that's like.
25:01I don't want to live like this.
25:04Let me fix me.
25:12The only reason I came back is because you didn't drop the keys off.
25:15I didn't expect to see the last days of Rome.
25:17Well, he did try and call you loads of times.
25:19Yeah, I was busy.
25:21What was so important that you had to leave the shop and put Bobby in charge?
25:25I thought I was getting a promotion.
25:27It just doesn't matter now.
25:28Let's just sort this place out, shall we?
25:30Oh, we're clocking off.
25:31You can sort this out.
25:32Come on.
25:33You can't just go.
25:34Yeah, Anna, I am the manager now.
25:36No, come on.
25:37Anna!
26:04Just when you think this nightmare is coming to an end.
26:13It's little Annie I'm worried about.
26:16It's not that Ollie has had it easy, but at least he had those years with Mick.
26:22Annie's known as chaos.
26:26And neglect.
26:29I can make this right.
26:31You better had.
26:33For all our sakes.
27:01Fuck.
27:31Fuck.
28:01Fuck.
