00:00So, um, I'll come and see Ty at the end of my shift.
00:14Yeah, can't wait for you to meet him.
00:15Yeah, I'm excited.
00:16Hang on.
00:17Hello?
00:18Dad?
00:19Well, how did you get?
00:20No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
00:29You haven't spoken to me for like 20 odd years.
00:31Why are you calling now?
00:35Attacked?
00:38Oh my god.
00:41Yeah, I can get there.
00:44Okay.
00:46What's happened?
00:49It's my mum, she's, on her way to the shop she's been mugged, and it's bad, she's in hospital.
00:54I need to, I need to go to Yorkshire today.
00:59Um, I need to go now.
01:02Okay?
01:04Hey, now that it's you and them going to school,
01:06what are you ladies up to today?
01:08So Chelsea, you look like you're going away again.
01:11You? I could do with a getaway.
01:13Harry, will you just give it a rest, yeah?
01:15What have I done now?
01:19I, um...
01:21Is everything okay?
01:24Yeah, of course.
01:25I'm just gonna, um...
01:27Take Jordan for some fresh air.
01:34Morning.
01:35You all right?
01:37Love the outfit.
01:38This old thing.
01:40Well, they say the old ones are the best.
01:42What, you two? Get a room.
01:44Or at least a drink first.
01:46Oi, we'll have less of that, thank you.
01:48Sorry about that.
01:49You ain't always the gent I raised him to be.
01:52Oh, my bad if I made things awkward.
01:54I was just having a laugh.
01:56Look, you clearly got the odds for her.
01:58Maybe a bit of love in your life might be just what you need to have.
02:01I need you to mind your own business.
02:03Look, son, Sharon has made her feelings clear.
02:06I asked her for a drink last night.
02:08Yes, Dad?
02:09She said no.
02:10Oh.
02:11And I respect that.
02:12Maybe she's just playing hard to get.
02:14So what she don't need is you making stupid jokes.
02:17Got me?
02:19All right?
02:21Couldn't be better.
02:23She's handing herself in today.
02:25It means I can finally clear my name and stick two fingers up to everyone who ever did me wrong.
02:30I'm off to work.
02:32Oh, do you want to go for a drink later?
02:34Um...
02:35Oh, what, you can't even toast my freedom?
02:37After all I've been through?
02:39Still not feeling great?
02:41Whatever.
02:42I'll see you later.
02:44Bye.
02:45Bye.
02:47Whatever.
02:48Romantic night, eh?
02:49If only.
02:50Nah.
02:51Peter, he quit his job yesterday.
02:53I've already taken so much time off, what with being hurt.
02:56So, no, we are staying in and we are chatting cash flow.
03:00Sexy.
03:01Tell me about it.
03:03No, we're skint.
03:04Yeah, well, that's another thing we can blame Chelsea for.
03:06Look who it ain't.
03:07I thought you'd be on a train to Paris by now.
03:10Yeah, well, they can't get rid of me.
03:12Well, I ain't complaining.
03:14I'll see you around.
03:15If you're lucky.
03:19You two going to hook up again, then?
03:21We'll see.
03:23Wah, wah, wah!
03:24Give me a kiss!
03:25June, look around this side so you don't fall off.
03:28One, two, three.
03:30Give me a kiss!
03:34Hi.
03:35Yeah.
03:36Hello.
03:37Hi, Mummy.
03:38So, what, shall we just do it?
03:40Shall we?
03:42Run.
03:44Now?
03:47Off into the sunset.
03:51Yeah, well, no, it's just wishful thinking.
03:56And it's not an option now.
03:58Yeah, but neither's you going down.
04:01I shouldn't have told anyone.
04:03What, so you think I wanted to?
04:05Yeah.
04:07Losing my little girl, leaving my...
04:10..leaving my grandson without a mum.
04:14But, Chelsea, you can't...
04:15You can't let someone else take the rap.
04:17That's not who you are.
04:19Well, that is why I'm facing this.
04:25I'll be home before you know.
04:28Not if the guy in ICU don't make it.
04:31Could be facing years.
04:36All of you, um...
04:37..will you take care of him?
04:40Come on, of course I will.
04:43You don't have to ask that.
04:45Yeah.
04:47Come here.
04:54Vinnie, I need you to do me a favour.
04:56Of course, what's wrong?
04:57Can you, um, look after things here for me, please?
04:59I'll only be gone a day or two.
05:02Down there?
05:03Down there?
05:06Eve's mum, she's...
05:07..she's been attacked.
05:09Ah.
05:10Where was she, OK?
05:11Well, I'm not sure.
05:13We've, um, got a train booked up north later today.
05:18Well, what about Ty?
05:20His family?
05:21Yeah, yeah.
05:24Eve's family.
05:26It even might not let us have them again.
05:29You know how she feels about us.
05:31Especially you, Sookie.
05:34You know, I've had to do so much for her to let us see him.
05:37Yeah, I know, I know.
05:40I'm very grateful, Nish.
05:42But, um...
05:45..Eve needs me.
05:48OK.
05:49Sure.
05:52It's just, this might be the only chance you ever get to see your grandson.
06:02When is she coming?
06:04Yeah, just give her a minute.
06:07Sorry, she's just saying goodbye to Jordan.
06:15We'll see you very, very soon, all right?
06:18We've loved you so much, OK?
06:20Love you.
06:21Love you.
06:22Love you, darling.
06:23OK.
06:24Chelsea.
06:25When are you off to?
06:27You will find out soon enough.
06:31Jack, look, I know you can't get off, but...
06:34..come on, there's got to be something you can do.
06:37I'm sorry, I can't.
06:44You ready?
06:45No.
06:46No?
06:47No.
06:48No.
06:49No.
06:50No.
06:51No.
06:52No.
06:53No.
06:54What choice have I got?
06:59Good riddance.
07:01Can't believe it's come to this.
07:03You told me to come clean.
07:07And I need to.
07:10My mum might die because of me.
07:14Jack, can we, um...
07:15..can we make a stop en route to the police station, please?
07:18What for?
07:19I need to do something.
07:21Something I should have done a long time ago.
07:37Sharon, have you got a minute?
07:39Yeah.
07:40I just wanted to say sorry for earlier.
07:43I'm not as tactful as my old man.
07:45No.
07:46Well, he's not too bad, I suppose, for a Mitchell.
07:49Was that it, because my crop is sure as getting cold?
07:52Well, actually, I wanted to pick your brains on something.
07:55You see, I love working at the Archers, don't get me wrong,
07:58but one day I want to run loads of businesses like you.
08:01I just don't know how to go about it.
08:03Well, I think you'd better talk it to Phil.
08:05Yeah, no, I've got a lot of time.
08:07Plus, I don't want him thinking I don't know what I'm doing.
08:10So what do you say?
08:11What do you want to know?
08:12You're a legend.
08:13That's been said before.
08:14Right, I'll write up a list of questions,
08:16meet me at the Archers and we'll talk them over, yeah?
08:18Please, can I meet you?
08:19Sure, Sharon.
08:48Just so you know, remember what I said yesterday.
08:53Right, we're in this together.
08:56And you don't need to worry about Jordan and that.
08:59Because I'll take care of him, just like I take care of Raymond.
09:02It's not...
09:04It's not that I'm worried about.
09:06I can take care of them, it's...
09:10It's my little girl.
09:14Look, I know she's messed up,
09:17and that she has to pay the price, but...
09:22How can I be angry with her
09:25when we ain't told the truth, either?
09:29How can I expect her to tell the truth if I can't myself?
09:35I want her... Look, Jack, I want her to come clean.
09:38Of course I do.
09:43I'm just terrified for her.
09:46It's like after everything with Grey, with Jordan,
09:50now prison.
09:52It's going to break her, Jack.
09:54There's got to be something we can do.
09:57Oh, God, please tell me, darling, he's not dead.
10:01He ain't dead.
10:04He's come out of the coma.
10:06He's coming round.
10:08OK, well, surely that must mean that your time will be reduced here, Jack?
10:13There must be some sort of way we can get her off, right?
10:17I wish. Come on, let's just go.
10:20I'll just have to get this over with.
10:22Just give me a minute.
10:25I'm thinking.
10:31I'm not going to raise my appetite on this rubbish.
10:33I'm not when Mason's taking me out for dinner later.
10:38You all right, you two?
10:40Wow, chicken chips. How romantic.
10:43What are you doing with him?
10:45I ain't with him.
10:47I've actually got an older boyfriend who drives like an actual car.
10:52As if I'll get him bookworm.
10:56See you later.
10:57Come on, then.
10:58Bye, bookworm.
11:06Still looking at all the dabs?
11:08Found a lovely one in Paris.
11:10Huge balcony overlooking the Seine.
11:12You and Stacey only just got back.
11:14So?
11:16Well, I'll just say that.
11:17Haven't really got the money for holidays.
11:19I'm just looking.
11:21I know it's not going to come to anything.
11:24I need more cleaning jobs.
11:26What's Tommy doing knocking about on his own?
11:30Why hasn't he got a school uniform on?
11:32Hi, Tommy.
11:34No school today?
11:36No.
11:37Where's the boys?
11:39They're at school.
11:41I dropped them off.
11:43My teacher's sick, so...
11:48Is, uh...
11:50Is everything all right?
11:51Everything's fine.
11:53I told you.
11:54Well, you know, if you ever want someone to talk to,
11:58you're all right, right?
12:03Is he all right?
12:06I'll ask Kat.
12:08She hasn't been to work lately.
12:09Hasn't she?
12:10Mm, Covid. Again.
12:16What are you grinning about?
12:18You'll be grinning when I tell you.
12:19I asked Sharon to meet you.
12:21And she said yes?
12:22Yeah.
12:23Really?
12:24Well, no. She said yes to meeting me.
12:26She's going to give me advice on running businesses.
12:28But, and here's the genius bit, you go along instead.
12:31So you lied to her?
12:32Ah, cheers, son, for setting me up with a bird of my dreams.
12:35Well, I trick her on her date.
12:37That ain't no case, son.
12:41Just go. Meet her.
12:43Show her what she's missing from old Teddy Bear.
12:46Don't you ever call me that again.
12:51Barn?
12:52Barney!
12:53What's up with him?
12:55Four. At the arches.
12:56You know you can't turn down a blonde.
13:03Right. All set?
13:05Yeah.
13:06Good.
13:08That'll be him. I'm just going to say hello.
13:10Yeah, of course.
13:12Hello.
13:14Oh, look at you.
13:17Oh.
13:19He looks just like Jigvijay.
13:21Say hello to your daddy-ji.
13:23Hello, bubba.
13:24Shall we go and play?
13:25Yeah.
13:26Oh.
13:27It's OK.
13:31I didn't say bye-bye to you, daddy-ji.
13:34Good boy. Come on. Let's go.
13:44This might be my only chance to see him.
13:46Well, you said you wanted to come with.
13:48Yeah, I do. I...
13:51I do.
13:53But is this even the right way to meet your parents, Eve?
13:56They...
13:58I don't know if I'm sure.
14:02And after how they were with you when you came out
14:05and all the stuff with Erica...
14:07OK, OK, OK. I get it.
14:09All right? You want to see Ty.
14:11Don't make this about my parents.
14:13It is about Ty. Yeah.
14:17My last chance to see him.
14:19My last chance to see him.
14:21Cos only Nisha's allowed to and he doesn't have long left.
14:27I'm sorry, Eve.
14:28No, it's fine.
14:30I'll just, um...
14:32I'll leave you to play happy families.
14:39How are you lot?
14:41Glad you could make it.
14:43What the hell? Listen, just calm down.
14:45She's supposed to be going down. Yeah, well, things have changed.
14:47Who's going to die? The person in intensive care.
14:49Yeah, who's going to die because of her?
14:51They ain't. All right, they're OK.
14:54Hmm. Lucky for her.
14:56Yeah, well, lucky as such.
14:59Things have changed, all right?
15:01Charges against you are going to get downgraded.
15:03There shouldn't be any charges against me, Dad.
15:05This is all her fault.
15:06No deaths means no corporate manslaughter charge.
15:09Yeah.
15:12Upselling tickets, the door blockages,
15:14you might still get charged for that,
15:16safety violations.
15:17Yes, but there won't be charges against me.
15:19There'll be charges against her.
15:20Look, all I'm saying is I don't see the judge
15:22throwing a book at you, all right?
15:23I don't even see him giving you a custodial sentence.
15:25As for Chelsea, she confesses.
15:28She might get grinded, Val, but there's aggravated circumstances.
15:31What's that meant, son?
15:32She intentionally rose the ticket numbers, all right?
15:34And after the accident, she didn't give herself up.
15:36She put it on to someone else. They took the rap.
15:38So it's highly likely that she's going to go down instead of you, Penny.
15:42She lied for weeks.
15:47She lied for weeks.
15:53For weeks.
16:01She misled the police. She deserves to go down.
16:04Yeah, well, that's what I want to talk to you all about.
16:07You know, this affects us all as a family,
16:09so I want us all to discuss it.
16:11Oh, what is there to discuss?
16:16You know, what you think we should do.
16:18You know, Chelsea, does she add herself in?
16:21Or...
16:24..do you let things be, Penny?
16:26Just don't do anything, cos I don't see you getting charged,
16:29you're not going to go down.
16:31Oh, what are we going to do? Put it to a vote?
16:36Yeah, why not?
16:39A vote? Are you for real, Uncle Jack?
16:42No, come on, let's just see what...
16:44..what everyone thinks.
16:46I can't believe you're even considering this.
16:51Fine. I'll do him my favour.
16:55Let's vote.
17:04You all right, Barn?
17:06I'm reading. Leave me alone.
17:08Not until you tell me what's wrong.
17:11I said I'm fine.
17:13You're my boy, and I love you.
17:16And I know when you're not being yourself.
17:18Now, come on. Problem shared and all that.
17:22It's Yvonne, I'm worried about her.
17:26In my clunkies earlier, she was talking about how she's dating this older boy.
17:31OK. So how old is he?
17:34Old enough to take her out for dinner in his flash car.
17:37And you're worried you can't do that for her?
17:40What? No, of course not. I'm worried he'll take advantage.
17:44Why? Has she said something to make you think that, boy?
17:47No, but, you know...
17:50What are you smirking at?
17:52Well, nothing. It's just I know what it's like to be keen on a girl.
17:56No, it ain't like that. I knew you wouldn't understand.
17:59Barn, I do understand. Look, I do understand, Barn. Believe me, I do.
18:03Like this fella, with his flash car and fancy nosh.
18:07He's just overcompensating, mate.
18:09Cos he ain't got your brains or Harold Mitchell's child, boy.
18:13And when Yvonne sees it, it'll just fizzle out between them.
18:16You mark my words. And you...
18:19Well, you've just got to let it run its course.
18:21Run its course? She's too young for him.
18:24Oh, Barny. Do you know people fall for who they fall for?
18:30It's life.
18:31It's 2024. What you're saying...
18:34No, it ain't cool, Dad. I thought you were a gentleman.
18:38Right.
18:40Take it as read, Denise is going to vote for Chelsea, yeah?
18:45Right, that's one for Chelsea.
18:47Lauren?
18:51Oh, this is ridiculous.
18:53Well, obviously I don't think it's fair that Penny would have to take the rap.
18:57And she gets off scot-free. So, obviously Penny.
19:02Dad, this is stupid. What are we even doing?
19:05Just...
19:07Right, well, I agree with Lauren.
19:09And, you know, Penny's family.
19:14Right, that's two for Penny.
19:18Amy?
19:22I don't know what to say.
19:24Don't you?
19:27I don't know what to say.
19:30Don't you?
19:32Through all the stuff with Denzel, she was like a sister to me.
19:36And I'm grateful, Chelsea.
19:40But then you lied to me, put me in a wheelchair and made everyone think it was Penny's fault.
19:48But then the thought of Jordan not having his mum.
19:53I know what it feels like to miss your mum every day.
19:56And if Dad's right and no-one goes to prison, then...
20:01This way, I vote Chelsea.
20:05I'm sorry, I am.
20:07You know I care for you both.
20:10But this way, less will happen to you.
20:18Right, then. Um...
20:20That's two votes each.
20:24So what happens now?
20:29Dad?
20:32You'll have to make the final decision.
20:36Right, snacks for the journey.
20:38You'd better get a move on. Where's Sookie?
20:41Yeah, she decided to stay with Ty.
20:43It might be her only chance to see him, so...
20:46Right, well...
20:48Then I guess it's important she sees him.
20:50Maybe you should go on your own. I mean, you haven't seen your family in years and...
20:54after everything you've said to each other.
20:56Yeah. Yeah, I think you're right, Sus.
21:00All right. Well, go on, get a move on, you're gonna miss the train.
21:03Yeah. I'll see you later.
21:04See ya.
21:08Right, Uncle Jack.
21:10You've weighed up the reasons, now it's time to make your decision.
21:17In which case...
21:22I'll go with the least worst option.
21:27Penny.
21:32I think you should let this go.
21:37I'm gonna vote for Chelsea.
21:38What? You'd choose her instead of me, Dad?
21:42Do you know what? Screw you all and your stupid vote.
21:44I'm going to the peace myself.
21:55Oh. My job's come up, Mother. See you later.
21:59OK.
22:01Jane.
22:03Tommy again.
22:05Looks like he's been out all day. What's he doing?
22:08Filming, Mother, looks like.
22:10Your pool cap.
22:12Yeah, she didn't pick up, I left a message.
22:14Oh, hang on.
22:15Everything's fine, Tommy's just out cos I've got Covid.
22:19Well, that's probably why he's not at school, in case he's gone at all.
22:22Well, why didn't he just say that? And why did Burton only go in?
22:25Oh, maybe you don't have to stay at home with Covid anymore.
22:29Don't worry, he'll be fine.
22:30Right, if you want another trip to Greece, I'd better get to work to pay for it.
22:34See you later.
22:41Hmm.
22:52Teddy?
22:53Surprise.
22:55Look, I'm sorry about this, I had no idea what you was planning.
22:59Well, I'm pretty sure I did.
23:01My days of being fooled by the Mitchell men are long gone.
23:04But you still came along.
23:06Well, I think it's sweet that he's always trying to help you.
23:09Well, I wouldn't call him sweet or helpful.
23:11Well, I would. Just like his dad.
23:16Look, I'm free tonight if you fancy that drink.
23:20You've changed your tune.
23:22Well, I was talking to Kathy and she reminded me that life's too short.
23:28I'd love to, but I can't.
23:31My boy Barney's struggling and I'm struggling to get through to him.
23:36I need to try again, make amends.
23:38But I did want to come here first and tell you straight what I really planned.
23:43Because a beautiful woman should never be stood up.
23:46You're a gent.
23:48Another time then, yeah?
23:50I might have to wait.
23:52I'll be the judge of that.
23:54Good luck with Barney.
23:57Oh, someone looks less happy than she did this morning.
24:00Yeah, well, you would if your dad betrayed you.
24:03Mate, first thing you move into Paris, then you're happy as Larry and Alice.
24:09Hey, look, if there's something I can do to help cheer you up...
24:13Is it just too much to ask to have a parent who loves you?
24:16No.
24:18No.
24:20No.
24:22No.
24:24No.
24:26No, of course not.
24:28I feel lucky to have my old man.
24:30To see my mum.
24:32She ain't exactly been there for me.
24:39Hey. Cup shop, yeah?
24:42Er, no. I've changed my mind.
24:46Oh.
24:54Oh.
25:06I'm guessing he didn't take it well, then.
25:08No.
25:10Hey, come to Daddy-G here.
25:13Come here.
25:15Aw.
25:17All of us together at last.
25:24There we go.
25:26Shall we do the red?
25:28Erm, I don't know.
25:30Oh.
25:32Steve? Is everything all right?
25:35Yeah, everything's fine. I just, erm...
25:39I wanted to say sorry for something.
25:41I totally get it.
25:43You know, I understand. Family's so important.
25:46Thank you. Sorry.
25:48Erm, do you want to say hello to Ty?
25:52Yes.
25:54Everyone, say hello to Eve.
25:56Hello.
25:58Hello.
26:00Eve, say hello to Ty.
26:02Hey, come here, bubba.
26:04Do you want to say hello to Eve?
26:06There he is.
26:08Hello.
26:10Hello.
26:17Well?
26:19Still nothing from Penny.
26:23So...
26:27What do we do now?
26:29We've just got to wait and see what happens when she goes to the police.
26:35I hope she's all right, though.
26:37We never seem to get it right, me and her.
26:41Well, you did the right thing by Chelsea,
26:44and I'll never forget that.
26:48PHONE RINGS
26:52It's Penny.
26:54Have it your way.
26:56Wait a minute, just... What does that mean?
26:59It means she's not turning Chelsea in.
27:09Drowning, you sorrows?
27:11I like to drown my dad.
27:16So, how are you doing?
27:18How do you think?
27:20Sorry. Should never go.
27:23Listen, I get it.
27:25That must have really, really hurt.
27:29So, if you need me to, I will come down with you to the station.
27:32I'm not going to the station.
27:37Just... I think I'll just take my chances.
27:39Hope I get a slap on the wrist, like he says.
27:43Hold on a minute. You...
27:45You literally just said... Yeah, I know what I said.
27:48But Jordan's just a kid.
27:52I don't want him to have the same childhood I did.
27:54Insecure, never really knowing when you're going to be safe.
27:57I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
28:04My dad, though...
28:07..I won't forget what he did to me.
28:11What he's always done to me.
28:15Put someone else first.
28:19I'll ruin him for this.
28:23You wait.
28:48You wait.
