00:00THEME MUSIC
00:25What about Saturday?
00:26What about it?
00:27The housewarming.
00:29What housewarming? First I've heard of packing.
00:31Oh, come on, Tony, it's traditional.
00:32I haven't got to have a really wild party.
00:34Oh, great.
00:35Most people wait till they get inside before unpacking, you know.
00:38It's traditional.
00:48We can invite the club crowd.
00:50The club crowd?
00:51Yeah, Pete and Andrew just back from Spain.
00:52You know what they're like, always up for a good time.
00:54Let's talk about it, yeah?
00:56We are talking about it.
00:57Hiya.
00:59Hello. You look a bit bright this morning.
01:00Yep, I feel it.
01:01Look, I'm sorry about last night, OK?
01:03I've been getting sobbed, so it was just going off like that.
01:07Look, I'll fetch the rest of the stuff in then.
01:09It's OK. I'll be with you now.
01:11Anyway, I've got someone to see.
01:15Like to see his face when you do.
01:16Talk about a shock.
01:17Yeah, well, don't you mean pleasant surprise?
01:19Gerald will think he's died and gone to heaven.
01:20He'll do better.
01:22What, and he just said yes, just like that?
01:24Yep, just like that.
01:25And you have told him it's me and Ricky's going on, have you?
01:27No, I thought we'd wait till we all got on the ferry.
01:29Of course I have, Bea.
01:30And he didn't say nothing about his cosy little twosome
01:32turning into a rave?
01:33No, he didn't say nothing about nothing.
01:34No, I was about to put all this pressure on him,
01:36and then he came in from the club last night and went,
01:38yeah, all right, just book it.
01:39It's a party, so here we come.
01:43Yeah.
01:44What?
01:47Sanjo.
01:48Yeah?
01:49Neelam around, is she?
01:50Well, I haven't seen her since first thing.
01:52And I don't suppose you know anything either, do you?
01:54Anything about what?
01:56About the shop.
01:57Well, what about it?
01:58I wouldn't know it in your mouth, but it's Sanjo.
02:00No, sorry, Carla, I don't know what you're on about.
02:02I was wondering what her plans are for when she takes over.
02:05Well, we haven't really talked about it, to be honest with you.
02:09It's amazing, that.
02:10Your mother's going into business,
02:11probably sinking her life savings into a shop
02:13just across the road from your stall.
02:15And none of her family have got the faintest idea
02:17about what's going on.
02:25You don't fancy this party, do you?
02:27It's not that.
02:28Oh, come on, Tony, it's written all over your face.
02:30It's just Sarah, that's all.
02:32Oh, she's invited too.
02:34Along with the crowd from the club and Pete and Andy.
02:36Oh, I get it.
02:37You don't think she'll approve of our friends?
02:39Oh, it's not that.
02:40Well, not exactly, she's been fine lately.
02:42So what is it, then?
02:43I want to do this slowly.
02:44She's accepted me.
02:45She's accepted you?
02:47She's accepted me.
02:48She's accepted you?
02:49She's accepted me.
02:50She's accepted you?
02:51She's accepted me.
02:52She's accepted me.
02:53Slowly.
02:54She's accepted me and you now.
02:55I don't want her to be suddenly faced
02:57with a room full of our friends and that.
02:58Yeah, it wouldn't worry you if it was our straight friends,
03:00would it?
03:01One step at a time, OK?
03:02My dad has asked me to look after her, you know.
03:04Yeah, look, Sarah's not a kid.
03:06Simon, will you try and be a bit understanding about this, please?
03:08Yeah, well, it's a little bit difficult, that's all.
03:10I mean, this time yesterday,
03:11there were two people in this relationship.
03:13Now all of a sudden, there's three.
03:15No, there isn't.
03:17Come here.
03:21Just give it a week or so.
03:22Let everything settle,
03:24then we'll have the party to end all parties, yeah?
03:26Yeah, well, we'll still be able to do this, won't we?
03:28Give each other the odd hug now and then?
03:30Even with Saint Sarah around.
03:31Just like I said, let everything settle, yeah?
03:39So, what do you fancy doing today, then?
03:41Shops? Pictures?
03:43Well, pictures would be nice, as long as I'm back by 7.
03:47So how did you know?
03:49My mum set a cafe first thing.
03:51I don't believe it.
03:53Neither could I.
03:57I thought the same thing when I saw Ted heading off last night.
04:00Wasn't someone else supposed to be going, too?
04:02Why isn't she, then?
04:03Seems Ted decided it wouldn't be such a good idea after all.
04:05Yeah, he's got a brain, that brother of yours.
04:07Yes, Bianca, he has.
04:08Shame he don't use it, innit?
04:09Well, you can usually rely on him to do the right thing in the end.
04:11I'm sure Robbie didn't think so.
04:13Hey, Kat, what's going on over your brother's ass?
04:16Oh, brings a lump to your throat, doesn't it?
04:18Yeah.
04:21Mum, I was gonna warn you if Carol was here.
04:23Yeah, good. I was hoping to see you.
04:25Actually, Carol, I was coming to see you.
04:27Oh, what a novelty.
04:29That good poor rat, she wants to see me.
04:34All right?
04:36Sorry, it's still on, then?
04:38Romeo and Juliet, Cathy told me.
04:40Don't mock.
04:41No, I'm not. I'm really happy for her.
04:42Well, it's nice to see things working out for a change.
04:44Pretty unusual, wouldn't you say?
04:46Well, it does happen sometimes.
04:48Like Hugh and Tiff, you mean?
04:50Yeah. Yeah, I do.
04:52So, how are the arrangements for the bussing coming on?
04:55Good. We're looking forward to it.
04:56Phil, I'll see you later.
04:59Can I have a word?
05:00I've got some parts to fetch.
05:02Why take a minute?
05:03I've been negotiating with Mrs Andres for a couple of weeks now.
05:07Earlier this week, we agreed a price,
05:09and we'll be completing the paperwork tomorrow.
05:11So where's that leave me?
05:12I'm afraid once I take over,
05:14I won't be requiring your services anymore.
05:17I'm sorry, Carol. It must be quite a shock.
05:20It's not very pleasant, but I can't say it's too much of a surprise.
05:23I sort of gathered from the way that Sanjay and Gita kept changing the subject
05:26every time I mentioned it that maybe you wouldn't be needing me.
05:28It's a simple business decision.
05:30That's all.
05:31So hang on a minute. When exactly are you taking over?
05:33Formally, from the beginning of next week.
05:35And you want me to finish at the same time, yeah?
05:37Yes, that keeps things simple.
05:39So I don't even get a week's notice?
05:40Oh, I'll pay you a week's wages in lieu, of course.
05:45I'm sorry, Carol,
05:47but like I said, it's a business decision.
05:50Nothing personal.
05:54So you can tell me.
05:55Tell you what?
05:56Are you gonna do it?
05:58Finish with what's her name this evening?
06:01Lilna.
06:02That's it? Well?
06:04Yeah. Yeah, I am.
06:06Right.
06:08It's not exactly gonna be easy, though, is it?
06:10No, I know. And, er...
06:12Well, I don't mean to come all heavy on you, it's just...
06:15It's no good for you.
06:17Ain't it?
06:18No.
06:20Feels a lot better than what I got with Kathy at the moment.
06:22What, you're saying you don't love Kathy any more?
06:24No, of course I don't, it's just...
06:27I don't know, it's messy, complicated.
06:30Why, Lilna's all nice and sweet and available.
06:32Not a bad combination, wouldn't you say?
06:35Look, if this Lilna thing carries on,
06:37it's gonna push you further and further away from Kathy
06:39until there'll be no way back.
06:41And then you really will have lost everything.
06:42Your home, your wife, your kid. Is that what you want?
06:47No.
06:48I know it's easier said than done,
06:50but finish with her tonight,
06:51and you can get on with sorting everything else out.
06:55You should start a column, you know?
06:57In the Gazette.
06:58Dear Grant.
06:59Phil.
07:02Yeah, yeah. I know.
07:06I'll be bringing them in about ten.
07:07Fine.
07:08They'll be well tanked up by then.
07:09Shouldn't be any problem persuading them to play.
07:12Just what I need.
07:13What, trouble?
07:14He was last night. I was hoping he'd have slept it off.
07:19Miss Palmer.
07:20How are we feeling this morning, Mr. Dixon?
07:22I rather think I made a bit of an exhibition of myself last night.
07:26Well, if that's an apology, then it's accepted.
07:29I'm grateful.
07:30We all get a bit carried away from time to time, Mr. Dixon.
07:33Now, if that's all, I've got some matters to discuss with my father.
07:36Actually, it's George I really came to see myself.
07:38Can I have a word in private?
07:42You know, I should have come round last night, but I was just so upset.
07:46You know, it wasn't that I wanted to go.
07:47Nothing like that. It's just that I'd geared myself up for it,
07:50and then all of a sudden...
07:52How about this morning? How are you feeling, then?
07:55Well, I am missing him.
07:57Dad, but if I was over there, I'd be missing you more.
08:04I need money, George.
08:06You've got money. My money.
08:08Seven grand of it, in fact, if my memory serves me right.
08:11He can't have got through that lot already.
08:13I told you then, Clive,
08:15do not take my generosity as your signal to get greedy.
08:18You've been good to me, I know, and believe me, I appreciate it, but...
08:22Look, I wouldn't be here if I wasn't desperate.
08:26Ask that daughter of yours.
08:28I haven't even got enough to spend a single night on.
08:30And so you're looking to me to provide you another little gift, yes?
08:34I've given up on the tooth fairy.
08:36I'm at the end of my tether.
08:40Things are really going belly-up for me right now.
08:44I need help.
08:46And so you thought you'd toddle on to soft old George again,
08:49ask him to stick his hand in his big, deep pocket one more time.
08:52Actually, I was thinking of something a bit more substantial this time.
08:55Seven grand is a bit too much.
08:57I was thinking of something a bit more substantial this time.
09:00Seven grand is not exactly insubstantial, Clive.
09:03Come on, George, you clear that kind of money in ten minutes at these tables of yours.
09:08So what have you got yourself into?
09:10It's... just debts. It's nothing iffy.
09:14It's not drugs or... you know.
09:17Big-time debts, obviously.
09:19Look, I just... can't see my way out from under them.
09:25I need to clear the lot once and for all and then I can start again with a clean slate.
09:30What did you think I was doing here last night?
09:33Just one win, I thought, just one, and I could be out from under this nightmare.
09:38Look, we go back a long way, George.
09:44And I have been very good to you over the years, remember?
09:47So what happens if you don't cover these debts?
09:51I go down.
09:52Might be a good thing.
09:55We're mates, George.
09:58You're not telling me you'd see a mate do time.
10:01Not when you can do something to help out.
10:03Well, at least you can't spend while you're in prison.
10:06Look, I know it all. You just remember that.
10:09The money laundering, the support centre, the incinerator...
10:11All of which you were involved in, too.
10:13Yeah, I know.
10:14So if any of that little lot gets out, you sink as well.
10:16I'm sinking anyway. Haven't you been listening to me?
10:19I don't take any notice of threats. You should know that by now.
10:24I'm desperate, George.
10:28I'm well on course to lose everything and go down at the end of it all.
10:33And if I do, I'm going to make damn sure
10:35that everyone who's made plenty out of me over the past few years goes down, too.
10:38And that ain't a threat.
10:41That is a promise.
10:55So, you've decided?
10:56What?
10:57About applying for membership.
10:59No, no, it's not that.
11:01It's about last night. I just want to get a couple of things sorted.
11:04And what exactly needs to get sorted?
11:06Well, I don't want last night to cause any problems.
11:08How can a single nightcap back at my flat cause any problems?
11:11Well, it can't.
11:12Then what's the matter?
11:14The thing is, I'm a family man now.
11:17Very right and proper and sweet, that is, too.
11:19Yeah, well, I don't want you thinking...
11:20I'm also thinking that as this is obviously causing you quite a lot of grief,
11:23then it's really for the best that we say no more about it.
11:28How long have you worked here?
11:29Well, long enough to get a bit of respect, wouldn't you say?
11:31What do you mean?
11:32Well, it's not just about losing the job, Michael, although that hurts.
11:36You know, what really gets to me is Sanjay and Gita, especially Gita.
11:39I don't understand.
11:40Well, they obviously knew all about it.
11:42Gita certainly knew about it last night, but I don't think it's a big deal.
11:45I don't think it's a big deal.
11:47I don't think it's a big deal.
11:49Gita certainly knew about it last night, but only told me half the story.
11:52She just didn't have the guts to tell the rest of it to my face.
11:58Excuse me.
12:00Right. All set?
12:02Yeah, ready when you are.
12:04I told our real estate manager you'll be there at six.
12:06Oh, well, let's have a drink first, then, shall we?
12:08I thought we could meet up when you finished.
12:10Well, you've got that auction later on, haven't you?
12:12That's not till half seven.
12:13Vanessa wants a tour of the place, Barry, not a sponsored dash.
12:16White wine and salad, yeah?
12:19Is Grant and Tiff not around, Squire?
12:22Haven't seen them, no.
12:23Oh, shame.
12:24I was hoping to catch one or other of them before I caught my train.
12:27Oh, yeah. I'm Tiff's dad.
12:30Ah. Yeah, actually, yeah, I think Tiffany's gone over to see the vicar.
12:33My wife saw her heading that way earlier on.
12:36Now, I never had my daughter down for the religious type.
12:39Well, I don't think she or Grant will have much to do with that after next week,
12:42if you want the truth.
12:43Next week?
12:45Yeah, they've got the blessing, haven't they, over at All Saints?
12:47Oh, yeah. Yeah, of course.
12:50Thanks. Bye.
12:52I phoned the travel agents before I came out
12:54and I can pick up the tickets any time this afternoon.
12:56Oh, great. Well, do you mind picking up mine and Ricky's while you're there?
12:58Cos I won't be finished until seven and I'll settle up with you later.
13:00All right, of course. There's only one thing.
13:02What?
13:03Well, it's August.
13:04Oh, well spotted, Tiff.
13:05No, no, Simon was saying the other day
13:06how the old world seems to go on holiday in August.
13:08Well, we don't want to be left behind, do we?
13:10But do you think we'd be able to get in anywhere as we'd left it so late?
13:13I suppose I could check with the travel agents when I go down there later, yeah?
13:16Anyway, if we're really stuck, we could always stay with Diane.
13:18What, do you reckon she'd put us up?
13:20Well, me and Ricky, anyway.
13:21Well, what about me and Grant?
13:22Oh, no.
13:23Oh, terrific.
13:24Well, at least it halves the problem. I mean, like Ricky said,
13:27instead of five people looking for a hotel, there'd only be two, wouldn't there?
13:29Oh, so when you had this great idea about coming to Paris,
13:32it wasn't just meant to bring back happy memories for me and Grant.
13:35It was so that you and Ricky didn't have to pay for no hotel.
13:37No, it wasn't. Not completely.
13:40In my cold.
13:41Just to let you know I'm going to be away the last week in August.
13:43Little holiday, is it?
13:44Yeah, Paris.
13:45Just for some.
13:46Anyway, I'll just have a break. The hours I put in are all with us.
13:49Your mum gone as well, she?
13:51She asked me if she could do with a bit of a break right now.
13:53Right.
13:54Haven't you heard?
13:55The Capors have taken over the shop and Carol's been sacked.
13:59So it's all been fixed for the August bank holidays.
14:01Did Ricky tell you?
14:02Yeah, he did, but it's only if he gets through the team trial.
14:05It's something to look forward to, though, isn't it?
14:07Yeah.
14:08I was thinking that we could make it a real day out if he does get through.
14:11You know, a good old-fashioned bank holiday day out.
14:16Mark, why don't you let me take over for a bit?
14:19Why?
14:20Because you're looking as though you could need a break.
14:22And you won't be fresh for tonight.
14:24Yeah, I do.
14:26What time does the session start?
14:27Seven.
14:28And it's nearly the last one.
14:29All we've got to do is breeze through the assessment and that's it.
14:34Mark, the doctors did warn you about the side effects of these drugs.
14:37Yeah, I know. I didn't think it would be this bad.
14:39It shouldn't last long.
14:41It wouldn't have lasted at all if I'd have started on them in the first place, would I?
14:46Yes, sir.
14:47Have you seen Sandra and Gita?
14:49Er, no.
14:50Wait till I get hold of them, too. You know they're taking over the shop?
14:53Are they?
14:54And you know the first thing they're doing? Sacking Mum.
14:56Well, I know they feel really bad about it, Bianca.
14:58Oh, so you knew then, did you?
15:00Well, I just know it's nothing personal.
15:01Nothing personal?
15:03She's got kids to feed, you know, and an ass to keep.
15:07So...
15:08So what?
15:09So what did our friend the counsellor want?
15:12As if I couldn't guess.
15:14Just leave it, Annie, OK?
15:15A donation, yeah?
15:17So, did he get it?
15:19Dad, I've a right to know what's going on.
15:21He might turn up again.
15:23I'd appreciate knowing what hand I'm meant to be playing him.
15:25Am I supposed to trust his markers now or not?
15:27I told you, I've sorted it, and for good this time, too.
15:30And what's that supposed to mean?
15:31It means we're not so much giving a handout as a golden handshake.
15:33A what?
15:35A once-and-for-all payment, severance deal.
15:36On the strict understanding he doesn't come back for any more.
15:39And you believe that, do you?
15:40Yes.
15:41Dad, the second that lot's finished, he'll be back, no question.
15:43I don't think so.
15:45Leaving aside the not-so-little matter
15:46of why you should be giving him anything in the first place...
15:48Drop it, Annie.
15:49Can he cause trouble? Is that the problem?
15:51There is no problem.
15:52I've done what's necessary to sort it. It will stay sorted.
15:55But I...
15:56Now leave it.
16:00Excuse me.
16:01Oh, I'm going to go faster.
16:02Ta. Stick another orange juice in there, would you, love?
16:05Have you got a light?
16:06Yeah, sure.
16:08Do you have sun visors, then?
16:09What?
16:10You smoke, at least.
16:12I thought I was sharing the bar with a saint.
16:14Brandy and ginger.
16:15That is doctor's orders, that is.
16:17And the right pain in the jacksie, isn't it?
16:19And he's in here, is he?
16:20Who?
16:21This doctor of yours.
16:22No.
16:23You know what they say, the eye don't see.
16:26Well, I suppose mine wouldn't hurt.
16:28Stick a vodka in there, will you?
16:29OK.
16:31Look at that. Brought a smile to your face already.
16:33I'm Terry Raymond.
16:35And I'm the genie of the lamp.
16:39I think Barry's a bit put out, you know.
16:41Oh?
16:42Hmm.
16:43I rather had the impression he wanted to take me on the grand tour himself.
16:46It's more my evening out with an attractive young lady in tow.
16:48But hot, son.
16:49That's Barry for you, though, isn't it?
16:51Doesn't like being left out of anything.
16:53You've got to know him rather well, haven't you?
16:55Such a short time, too.
16:56Yeah, it's really weird.
16:57I've known him, what, a few weeks?
16:59But it seems like I've known him all my life.
17:01That's what you call love, I suppose.
17:03Well, you both seem sure about it.
17:05Sure enough to tie the knot, yeah?
17:07If it were most couples, I mean, they'd wait a bit, they'd hang on.
17:10Get to know each other a bit better, but not you two.
17:14Can I talk to you, Roy?
17:15Honestly.
17:16In confidence.
17:18Yeah, go on.
17:21This isn't second thoughts, don't get me wrong.
17:23I love Barry.
17:24I'm sure he loves me, too.
17:25But, yeah, I must admit, the pace of it
17:28has taken me a little bit by surprise, too.
17:30And does that bother you?
17:32No, I certainly don't see the point in waiting, but...
17:36But what does worry me is what I think lies underneath it all,
17:40if you want to know the truth.
17:42I'm sorry, I don't understand.
17:44If I'm talking out of turn here, tell me.
17:46No, no, go on.
17:47I think Barry wanting to push things along so quickly,
17:50him wanting to get hitched, it's all part of something deeper.
17:54It's something to do with Manowood, if you want to know the truth.
17:57And you.
17:59How do you mean?
18:00I think it's all part of Barry trying to prove himself.
18:03Prove what? I don't understand.
18:05That he really is an adult, that he can be trusted, relied on,
18:08that he really has grown up.
18:09Well, you don't get married just to prove you've grown up.
18:12No, and if that's all I thought it was, I'd run a mile.
18:14I'm not sure I quite follow all this.
18:17You're still top man, Roy.
18:19I've only known you five minutes, too, but even I can see that.
18:22You might have retired from Manowood,
18:24but you still cast a fair old shadow over the place.
18:26I like to take an interest, naturally.
18:28Yeah, well, that just means that Barry doesn't have a say.
18:31Well, no well-reasoned.
18:33Sure, you made the right decision in the circumstances.
18:36But it all boils down to the same thing in Barry's eyes.
18:39That you don't really trust him.
18:41Look, I have said the wrong thing here, haven't I?
18:44I told you to tell me. Let's go.
18:46No, no. Please, go on.
18:49It's only because I really care about Barry that I'm saying this.
18:53It's catch-22, isn't it?
18:55He can't prove himself until you really trust him and let go.
18:58You won't trust him and let go.
19:01Gator?
19:03Yeah, Carol. Look, I'm really sorry, all right?
19:06It's not your fault I'm losing my job. You said yourself last night.
19:09It's Neelam who's taken over the shop.
19:11But I could have told you about your job last night.
19:13Yeah, well, that is true.
19:15I tried my best to persuade her to keep you on. I really did.
19:18We're friends, Gator. You should have said something to me.
19:21But that's exactly what made it so hard for me.
19:23I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
19:25I'm sorry.
19:27I'm sorry.
19:29That's exactly what made it so hard, because we're friends.
19:32Yeah, well, this ain't my idea of what friends are for.
19:34I'm sorry, Carol. I really am.
19:36So, what's all this, then? You sacking my mum?
19:39So, has Vanessa got Daddy's seal of approval, then?
19:42He seems to be coming round to the idea.
19:44Well, so he should. She could be just what Barry needs.
19:46Yeah? Yeah, she cares.
19:48She seems to know Barry inside out.
19:50A marriage with a chance of working. That's a rarity.
19:54Things still like that with you and Phil?
19:56Oh, we'll get through.
19:58That's Ted, by the way.
20:00Oh, yeah? How is he?
20:02How you'd expect. A long way from home, all on his tod.
20:04Well, missing the family already, is he?
20:06Yeah, and I'm missing him already, too.
20:09It's terrific, isn't it, families?
20:11You spend half your life yelling at them, the other half missing them like mad.
20:14You'll get through, Carol.
20:16Seems to be the story of the illest family life, doesn't it?
20:19Getting through.
20:21In fact, he did the right thing, though, didn't he?
20:23I was trying to tell Bianca that earlier.
20:25In the end.
20:32Tea, please.
20:35Hi.
20:39You all right?
20:41Phil?
20:43So you've not even seen her yet, your own grandchild?
20:46First chance I've had with me being in hospital.
20:48Oh, I don't believe in her meself.
20:50What, grandkids?
20:52Too many sick people, you never know what you might catch.
20:55Oh, well, now I'm out, I'm gonna spoil her rotten.
20:58You got any kids?
21:00All grown up now, though.
21:02You don't look old enough.
21:04Say that again, Terry Raymond. Slowly, and this time as if you mean it.
21:07But I do mean it.
21:13What's the matter? Your doctor just walked in.
21:15No. No, my son.
21:18You got visitors?
21:20Oh.
21:22I don't look like that, not that kind of visitor.
21:24Well, not unless you count your in-laws as bad news.
21:26You what?
21:28Tiff's dad, he's over in the Vic. The old man was talking to him earlier.
21:31What the hell are you doing here? What can I get you?
21:33You can answer my question, what are you doing here?
21:35I wrote. I didn't get a reply. I was getting worried.
21:37I thought maybe Tiff was ill or something.
21:39Oh, please, listen, I know what you're thinking.
21:41Oh, good, then do it. Get lost, Dad.
21:43Things have changed. I've changed.
21:45Really? I've done his paper, believe me.
21:47Oh, just give me a chance to prove it to you.
21:49No. Look, you've used up all your chances as far as I'm concerned,
21:52and the same goes for Tiff, too, before you start on her.
21:54Yeah, well, she'll just have to tell me that for herself, won't she?
21:57I want you to leave now.
21:59I've got a right to see my family, especially my first grandchild.
22:02Either you go of your own free will, or I'll make you.
22:05Anyway, I told you, son, I've changed.
22:07Oh, yeah, it looks like it. I mean, look at you.
22:09Boozing it up the second you're out of hospital.
22:11Some cheap tart in tow. What?
22:13Give me that!
22:14What did you call me?
22:15Keep out of this, will you?
22:16And who are you talking to, all of a sudden?
22:18Oh, no, you're not. Not in this pub, anyway.
22:20Grant, look, I...
22:21You see, you're not welcome here.
22:23So?
22:24Grant, please.
22:25Now.
22:29Taking this well?
22:31Don't have much choice, do I?
22:33You're gonna put an end to it however I take it, aren't you?
22:36Look, I'm really sorry. It should never have started in the first place.
22:39Yes, it should. This is the best thing that's happened to me for ages.
22:42I'm not gonna start wishing it never happened.
22:45You don't feel too good right now, though, does it?
22:47No.
22:50It's not...
22:51What?
22:52That you don't like me?
22:54No.
22:55No, I like you a lot, and that's a problem.
22:58It's not a problem. It's nice to know.
23:02It's just a situation, that's all.
23:04I mean, if that were different,
23:06if you weren't married and you didn't have Ben,
23:08then we'd be okay, yeah?
23:10But you are married and you do have Ben.
23:14Yeah.
23:16I've only known you a few days. Not long, is it?
23:19Long enough to know I wish it could go on a lot longer.
23:22I'm sorry.
23:24This would be big time, Phil Mitchell, believe me,
23:26if you were footloose and fancy-free.
23:29But you're not, are you? So there's no point in me thinking like that.
23:32Where are you going?
23:33Home.
23:34But...
23:35Not in the mood for a meeting, if you want the truth.
23:37No.
23:38Don't suppose I'll see you again?
23:40I bet you'll be finding another group to go to from now on.
23:44Yeah, I suppose that'd be best.
23:51Bye.
23:54Luna.
23:59Wait a minute.
24:01So where's the old slobber that was with him?
24:03She left while you were having your little chat.
24:05I don't think she fancied getting caught up in the fallout.
24:09Look, I think it's better if we don't say anything to Tiffany about this.
24:12She was upset enough about your old man yesterday and all he'd done was right.
24:15Yeah, if she knew he'd actually turned up here, it'd do her head in.
24:18And I don't think he'd be turning up here again in a hurry, do you?
24:21No, I think he got the message clear enough.
24:23Yeah, agreed.
24:24It's difficult to believe this, isn't it?
24:26What?
24:27We've found something we actually agree about.
24:29Maybe it's the start of a beautiful friendship.
24:31A daddy.
24:32Yes, Lorraine?
24:33What's a girl have to do to get a drink round here?
24:36Sorry?
24:36Sleep at the stove.
24:38White wine and cider, please, Gran.
24:40I feel like public enemy number one.
24:42I know everyone feels like Bianca.
24:44No?
24:45No, I was speaking to Pat earlier on. She's a business woman.
24:48She understands.
24:49Yeah, well, I was speaking to Kathy and I could tell that she doesn't.
24:52Listen, Dieter, this is a five-minute winter.
24:54Believe me, come Monday, everyone will have forgotten about it.
24:57I'll see you later.
24:59Yeah, who's right? You worry too much.
25:01Let's just hope so, Sonja.
25:03Seeing as how it's our money invested in that business now,
25:06well, let's just hope there isn't some kind of backlash.
25:09Let's hope a fair few regulars don't decide to shop elsewhere.
25:12Why should they do that?
25:14Some sort of gesture of support for Carol.
25:16That wouldn't do that, would they?
25:19I've changed, he kept saying.
25:21Where have we all heard that before?
25:23Yeah, just what I said, straight after get out of me life, Dad.
25:26Didn't make any difference, though.
25:28He just dug his heels in.
25:30Kept saying he was gonna see Tiff, he was gonna see Courtney.
25:33Like he had the perfect right to be there.
25:35It's about the first time in my life I've been glad to be related to Grant Mitchell.
25:39He took one look at them bulging biceps and that was it, he was out the door.
25:42It's funny, isn't it?
25:44What?
25:46Well, this time yesterday it was you telling me to make peace with me old man.
25:49Now it's you who's got parent problems.
25:51It's hardly the same thing, Tony.
25:53I didn't say it was.
25:55I hope you're not gonna tell me I should try and wave a white flag at him.
25:58No.
26:00He does keep coming back, doesn't he?
26:02Yeah, only cos he wants something.
26:04Look, Tony, you don't know him and you don't know what you're talking about.
26:07I know he was really awful last time.
26:09Sometimes people surprise you, that's all I'm saying.
26:11Look at me old man.
26:13Your dad ain't even on the same planet as mine.
26:16Look, I thought mine weren't human too, but he is.
26:20To tell you the truth, I regret not being a bit nicer to him now.
26:24I'm just going over to the community centre, OK?
26:26Yeah, and what time are we coming back?
26:28Oh, hello, Grandad.
26:30Eleven? Come over if you like, Joe's playing in that pool match later on.
26:33I'll get that, it's probably him now.
26:35Look, I don't mean to tell you what to do.
26:37Then don't. It's just...
26:39And don't meddle in things you don't know about.
26:41It's just I could have said exactly the same thing to you yesterday.
26:44Tony.
26:46I don't believe it. He sent you, I suppose.
26:48What are you talking about?
26:50He just doesn't give up, does he?
26:52No, listen, you little toe rag!
26:54Mum?
