00:00Are you sure you don't mind giving Brenda a hand? I just want to make sure everything's
00:07perfect for Angel's visit. We only get a few hours with her.
00:10Of course not. At least in the cafe, I can't get into too much trouble.
00:15Oh, try not to keep stressing about the haulage. You and Will will sort it.
00:19Yeah, I know. Have we made a mistake keeping today small?
00:24There's Dad. And I know the boys would have loved to have seen her.
00:29Easy steps. They've had this football camp bug for ages, and it's a big thing, her coming
00:34home for a day. We don't want to overwhelm her. You wait. Soon she'll be home proper,
00:40and I'll be sick to the back teeth of her again.
00:43You think? Yeah. Onwards and upwards.
00:59You're in my light. I need to talk about my van.
01:02Of course you do. It's going to cost you a fortune.
01:07Only because of your brother-in-law. Well, it's not my problem. I'll take it up with him.
01:13Oh, yeah? Carry it there himself, did he? Or did he use your tow truck and nick the
01:19keys from your garage? Fine. That's what we're doing, is it? I'll go and ring my insurance.
01:29Or actually, maybe the police first. They usually need an incident number, don't they?
01:36You've got no problem if they come sniffing round here, do you?
01:44I don't like being threatened. Not many people do.
01:50Oh, yes, Queen.
01:53Hi. Do you want a hand?
01:56Oh, no, it's OK. Amelia's with me here in a sec. She's buzzing, pulling all this together.
02:03She thinks a lot of you, you know. You've really helped her. I'm loving this.
02:07Oh!
02:08Look at this.
02:09Hey, it's Amelia's idea. It's karaoke, you know. And apparently, it's not gonna get in
02:14the way of all my dance moves.
02:17Oh, brilliant, you're still here. Do you think you can squeeze me in for a beard trim?
02:21Today?
02:22Well, ideally. You don't mean looking like a scruffy get on your wedding day now, do you?
02:26And I always look me best a couple of days after you've worked your magic.
02:30Dad, it's a hen do.
02:32It'll take ten minutes.
02:33It's OK, I can squeeze him in.
02:35See? I knew you were marrying a good'un.
02:38Yeah, I'll tell you what. Not many brides have been this relaxed a couple of days before
02:42the wedding.
02:43Oh, that reminds me. Did you manage to get some euros for Venice yet?
02:47Well, if you haven't, I can get some.
02:48Oh, er...
02:51You know, erm, don't worry. I've got everything in hand. I'm just gonna be right back.
03:00You're in a good mood.
03:01Angel's visiting today, I can't wait.
03:05Sorry, you really don't need to be hearing that.
03:08It's not your fault, is it?
03:10Still. How is he, Samson?
03:14Hard to tell.
03:17I'd like to say it gets easier. That's not true.
03:20But there is an ending, so try and focus on that, mate.
03:25It's not forever, it's just for now.
03:29That were nice of Jimmy.
03:32Yeah.
03:34Is that all you've got to say?
03:38You need to talk about this properly, Sam.
03:40It's not good, you bottling it all up.
03:42I'm not.
03:47Why did Murray grasp Samson up?
03:50He might have only got suspended.
03:53We don't know for sure it were her.
03:55Course it was. Who else would have done it?
03:59All the time in my head is going round, what could be happening to him?
04:03I know. I'm doing the same.
04:05It's not the same.
04:07You mean cos I'm not his real mum?
04:11Anyway, I'd best be off. I've got a busy day.
04:14Especially if I'm going to make Mandy's shift.
04:16I didn't mean it like that.
04:18It's OK. Everything's fine.
04:20I'm just glad you're getting it off your chest.
04:37Am I interrupting?
04:38No, I'm just getting a bit of practice in.
04:40The girls are going to love this.
04:42You can hear it halfway across village.
04:45That's good to know, isn't it?
04:46When our charity belt's out, her tune with her extra bits.
04:49Sir, please. Fixy.
04:54That thing's not stopped buzzing all morning.
04:56Yeah, well, you know.
04:58Just trying to drum up some extra business for the salon.
05:01Makes sense. Cost of weddings these days.
05:05You going to take it?
05:07Would you mind? I thought you might need to get off.
05:09Well, I can do Bear's trim if you want.
05:12It's all right with me if it makes things easier for you.
05:14Oh, thanks. Right, well.
05:16I'll leave you both to it, then.
05:18Take it here if you want.
05:19We're hardly likely to be making much noise now, are we?
05:22It's a new client, you know.
05:24I think it's probably best if I have a bit of privacy.
05:28I didn't know that he lived in the ruddy thing, did I?
05:31And also, I didn't mean for it to go all the way in.
05:33And I've been thinking about this.
05:34How do we know that the handbrake was working?
05:36Which is about the only thing that still is.
05:38What's going on?
05:39John's threatened to call the police.
05:42So, what do you want me to do?
05:44Well, an apology would be a start.
05:48Great.
05:49Since when have you ever apologised for anything, Kate?
05:51I'm not the one doing it.
05:52Come on.
05:55Now!
05:58Are you going to come with me,
05:59considering you're the reason I'm in this mess?
06:00No.
06:01And don't start blaming me.
06:02Either I'm staying out of this,
06:03like I should have in the first place.
06:04Hate you.
06:05OK.
06:09What?
06:11He, er...
06:12He's got something to tell you.
06:14Sorry.
06:15What?
06:16I said I'm sorry.
06:18I didn't...
06:19realise how much that van meant to you.
06:21And I should have taken into consideration
06:24that you'd just lost your mum.
06:25So, you wouldn't have destroyed my home
06:27if I wasn't grieving, is that it?
06:30And just how thick are you not to realise I live in it?
06:32It's a camper van.
06:33All my stuff's in there.
06:34Or it was.
06:35See, this isn't getting us anywhere.
06:37Just...
06:38Just go.
06:40I thought we were sorting this.
06:41Yes.
06:42And I will,
06:43but you're not making it easy.
06:44Fine.
06:46You know what, mate?
06:47Actually,
06:48I am sorry
06:49that you've had such a tough time with it,
06:51but surely you've got to ask yourself the question
06:53at some point,
06:54what kind of man ends up living
06:56on his own,
06:57in his van,
06:58and in the middle of nowhere?
07:03Idiot.
07:04Yep.
07:06But he's still my wife's brother.
07:09I want this over with.
07:10I've got enough on my plate.
07:11And I still need my van.
07:13So where do we go from here?
07:14Because I'm not backing down.
07:22Sorry I'm late.
07:24Brenda wouldn't stop bleating on about the toaster.
07:27I told her it could wait,
07:28but ain't just not back yet, is she?
07:39What's happened?
07:42She's not come in.
07:43They cancelled it.
07:46Why?
07:48Is she all right?
07:51What?
07:52She's fine,
07:53but, um,
07:56she got into a fight.
08:00Why would she do that?
08:03Why today?
08:09Wait, I've not got my mask on.
08:13Did you hear something?
08:16Must be my ears playing tricks on me.
08:19Right, well, we're all done.
08:21I'll just go fetch that beard oil.
08:28Must be someone important,
08:29face like that.
08:30No, um,
08:31but do you mind if I just take it?
08:32No, honestly, I'm in no rush.
08:35Thanks.
08:37Are you not going to say anything?
08:40What, are you shy?
08:42Little mummy's boy, perhaps?
08:44Or is this some stupid game?
08:49Mandy?
08:54Mandy?
08:56I think you left your microphone on.
08:58Fine, be that way.
09:00It's me doing the talking.
09:01And that's what you're after, isn't it?
09:04Someone to take charge
09:06because you're just too weak.
09:08Well, I want paying for this now.
09:10And for what?
09:11It's none of your business.
09:12Do you hear me?
09:13You are a useless waste of space
09:16and I deserve better.
09:18So pay up, little cash piggy.
09:21Madame Diamante Dales is here
09:23and she's about to...
09:25Dear God.
09:28So how did you end it?
09:29Well, Cain said leave it to him,
09:31but you know what he's like.
09:32He probably scared the guy half to death
09:33and sent him packing.
09:36I still can't believe he drove his van into a lake.
09:38How many times?
09:39I didn't mean to do it.
09:45But that's him.
09:46Who?
09:48John.
09:50Victoria's brother, the van guy.
09:51So he did, didn't he?
09:54What do you think?
09:55Cain told him to get lost
09:56and now he's trying to rob the place.
09:58We should call the police then.
09:59No, no.
10:00He threatened to do that to me and to the garage.
10:02Cain finds out that I'd get them involved here
10:04he'll hit the roof.
10:06I'll tell you what we're going to do.
10:08We're going to scare him.
10:10But wait.
10:27Hey, you!
10:36That was a mistake.
10:54Just leave it, will you?
10:56Hey, hey!
10:57What's going on?
10:58He attacked me.
11:01Looks like you were given as good as you got.
11:02I'd say a bit more than that.
11:04It's all right, I'm just saying what I saw.
11:06He was trying to rob you.
11:07No, I wasn't.
11:08Oh, don't give me that.
11:09Why else would you be here?
11:11Because I gave him a job.
11:12What?
11:13He's going to be sticking around.
11:14He needs to feed himself.
11:15And more than that, he needs an extra pair of hands.
11:18He's got experience, apparently.
11:21Although maybe I'm beginning to regret that.
11:23He went for me first.
11:25I was only trying to scare you.
11:26I'm shaking.
11:31New guy seems nice.
11:33Go away!
11:37Cain.
11:40I don't like him.
11:41I don't trust him at all.
11:43Are you sure you know what you're doing?
11:44Fixing the mess that you made.
11:46I need to get that van out of the water.
11:49You've got a lot of work ahead of you.
11:50And you're going to be paying for it.
11:56Cain gave him a job?
11:58He said it fixed everyone's problems.
12:00I thought Cain was going to kill him this morning.
12:02Well, he's always respected people who stand up for themselves.
12:04Yeah, I guess.
12:06I wonder if this means John's planning on staying longer.
12:08I thought he made it pretty clear that he was already stopping until his van was fixed.
12:11Well, that's what he said, but he's got a job.
12:14He's found a family.
12:16He knows what might happen over the next few weeks.
12:18This is great.
12:20Don't think this means I've forgiven you.
12:22It was all Mackenzie, Vic.
12:23Trust me.
12:25And I can't believe he was a farmhand.
12:27Your dad would have been proud.
12:29Yeah, yeah, he would.
12:31I'll see you in a bit.
12:35Do you fancy giving me a hand shifting a few crates?
12:37You know, when I get them done before Mandy's hen.
12:41As opposed to someone who actually works here.
12:44Fine.
12:48So sorry about that.
12:50Sit back down and I'll get you that beard oil.
12:52No, no, no, you're alright.
12:54I'll do it myself when I get home.
12:56You alright?
12:57No, I just need some fresh air, that's all.
12:59It just gets very, very hot in here.
13:02Yeah, I think it's our dryers.
13:05Are you finished already?
13:06Yeah, it's pretty straightforward.
13:08You going off?
13:09Sorry?
13:10You done?
13:11Oh, yes, yeah.
13:12Amelia did a grand job.
13:16Who was it you said you were having a meeting with again?
13:18Why do you ask?
13:19Just interested, that's all.
13:20I mean, I am basically your father-in-law now, aren't I?
13:23Oh, it's just some new client, you know.
13:25Got to pay for this honeymoon somehow.
13:29And it all went well, then?
13:32You showed them who's boss?
13:35Yeah, something like that.
13:37Right, then.
13:39Well, I'd better be off.
13:41Enjoy the karaoke machine, but do take care of the volume control.
13:47It's amazing how far that sound can travel.
13:56DOOR CLOSES
14:03Thought you were busy.
14:04Girl's got to eat.
14:07All right.
14:09Cos I thought maybe you just said that to get away from me.
14:19I'm sorry for what I said.
14:25Of course you're his mum, and you're going through this now.
14:33But maybe you said what you did because I made him confess.
14:38If you're still angry with me...
14:39No.
14:40I didn't mean it.
14:43Just sometimes my mouth runs away with itself.
14:47You know, when I'm...
14:51Heartbroken?
14:53I just miss him.
14:57And I'm scared for him.
15:01You're much better than me at all this.
15:04You know...
15:06Emotions and that.
15:09You always know what to do for it, Bess.
15:11I don't know about that.
15:13You do.
15:16Sometimes I think you're the only thing holding this family together.
15:21DOOR CLOSES
15:23Right, there you go. Anything else?
15:25Yeah. Would you mind shifting them all back downstairs again, please?
15:30What?
15:31Don't blame me.
15:33You're the one who won't talk to me unless I give you something physical to do.
15:38Come on, love.
15:39I could see how much it bothered you when you heard that John was staying.
15:42Couldn't care less.
15:44Really? Hmm.
15:46He must have fancied him a little bit, seeing as you two...
15:48No, no, Mum, don't do that.
15:49What? What? I was only going to say you spent some time together.
15:52Well, I wish I'd never laid eyes on him.
15:55Because if I knew he was Robert's brother, I'd never have gone there.
15:58Yeah, well, you did go there, didn't you? That ship has already sailed.
16:01Well, then let's hope that he sails off with the ship.
16:05Just as soon as his van's fixed.
16:07Hmm. You sure?
16:09I wouldn't say it if I wasn't.
16:11There's nothing going on between us.
16:13I wouldn't say it if I wasn't.
16:15There's nothing going on between me and him. Nothing.
16:25Finished that quick? You in a rush?
16:27We've got plenty to be getting on with.
16:29Look, I'm all for getting some grafting, but we're paid by the day.
16:32There's no point killing ourselves. My dad won't thank us for that.
16:37Look, I know Matt can be an idiot, but he's our idiot.
16:40He's a good guy once you get to know him.
16:42I'll have to take your word for it.
16:45There you are.
16:46What are you doing up here?
16:47I was looking for you.
16:49Well, we've got a lot to be getting on with. Sorry.
16:52See you out there.
16:53It'll only take a second.
16:55What will?
16:56I just wanted to say I heard you were working here and I think it's great.
17:00And don't forget, you've always got a bed at my hand whenever you need it.
17:03This doesn't mean anything.
17:05It's just a job.
17:08And then I thought I'd compare their marriage to pancakes,
17:12cos you always mess the first one up,
17:14but the second one, cos of the...
17:17You know.
17:18Are you listening?
17:20Eh?
17:21What are you watching?
17:22Oh, I'm reading, listening.
17:25You know, text-to-speech stuff.
17:28Must be interesting, the way you're looking at it.
17:32Careful. Keep doing that and people will think you're up to all sorts.
17:35Give over.
17:36It's not for me, all this weird stuff you get on here, kinks and that.
17:42But...
17:44do you know there are some blokes who pay women to, like,
17:48shout at them, belittle them for money?
17:52How did we get here?
17:53I'm just making conversation.
17:55Are you sure that's all it is?
17:57Because, you know, if you're in trouble...
17:59Oh, no, no, no, it's not me.
18:01You're in trouble.
18:02Oh, no, no, no, it's not me.
18:05It's a mate of mine.
18:07Back from my days in the ring.
18:10People are saying that his missus might be doing it behind his back.
18:14You know, this, er, financial domination.
18:17I think I might have found her account.
18:20Blimey!
18:21Would I know him?
18:22I'm assuming it's a wrestler.
18:24Is it Abel Bill?
18:25Er, no, is it...
18:27Is it the one-man band she?
18:28Is it the Tadcaster Thrasher?
18:30No, it's none of them.
18:31Hiya!
18:34Here they are.
18:35Who fancies an impromptu stag night?
18:37I thought you didn't want one.
18:38You know, I said I didn't want a proper one,
18:40but me just buying some booze and some pizzas.
18:42And I was thinking we could do a diode marathon
18:44with just me dad and me best mate.
18:46I'd be blissed.
18:47All right, yeah, yeah, but you've got to give me a hand with this first.
18:50What are we doing?
18:51It's nothing, just drop it.
18:52What? No way, it's a brilliant game.
18:53We're guessing which wrestler your dad's got gossip on
18:55because apparently his wife is up to all kinds of things.
18:58It's not gossip.
18:59You're talking about somebody's life here.
19:01All right, Dad, I'm sure Marlon didn't mean any harm.
19:03Yeah, no, I'm sorry.
19:05Sorry, you know, but if you want my advice,
19:07if you're not sure, it's probably best not to say anything, really.
19:10Yeah, no-one's going to thank you for trying to ruin the relationship,
19:13even if you are trying to help.
19:14Right.
19:15Come on, we can't let Mandy have all the fun.
19:26Hi!
19:29You don't give up, do you?
19:31Who, me? I was just taking an innocent stroll.
19:34Is that so?
19:35I want you to know I'm not trying to upset you,
19:37I'm just telling you how it is.
19:39I'm not looking to build a life around here.
19:41And I'm not asking you to.
19:43I just thought if you have to stick around, and you kind of do,
19:47would it really hurt if we got to know each other?
19:50You know, my dad never saw himself staying round here.
19:53Went to London, wrote a book.
19:56Not many people know that.
19:58What's your point?
19:59My point is, this place, farming,
20:02it's been in our family for almost 100 years.
20:05It has a way of getting in your bones, whether you want it to or not.
20:10Sounds like it means a lot to you.
20:12More than I've ever realised.
20:15I know you've probably been through a lot with your mum and stuff,
20:18but if you took the time to just stop and stand still for a while,
20:22it might not be such a bad thing.
20:24And yet, you probably don't want to spend the next 100 years here,
20:28but it could also be exactly what you need right now.
20:33Actually, there was another reason I came to find you.
20:37I didn't want to say anything in front of Nate,
20:39but I went home to clear some more space for you if you are staying longer,
20:43and I found this in Harry's room.
20:45You must have taken it, I'm sorry.
20:47I assumed it was yours.
20:49But I didn't open it. It didn't seem right.
20:54Is that a dog tag? Like from the army?
20:57Yeah, but I don't want to talk about that time in my life.
21:01It's over. Right?
21:03Yeah, OK, that's fine.
