00:00 [Music]
00:28 No, I can't just drop your trainers at school and now they're getting your dad.
00:31 People don't put forgotten PE kits in taxis, Elliot.
00:35 Oh, just...
00:36 Uh, excuse me.
00:40 Everything okay?
00:41 Well, I haven't finished my coffee.
00:42 And you? Been sat with it long enough.
00:45 Perhaps I've got things on my mind. Anyway, I'm not on the clock, am I?
00:48 Fine, have it back then.
00:50 Probably cold now, that.
00:51 Shut up.
00:52 Hiya.
00:54 I was gonna come see you after fair was hassing yesterday.
00:59 Everything alright?
01:00 Not really, no.
01:02 Please tell me you didn't go and meet her.
01:05 Oh, Mary.
01:08 I needed answers, Susie.
01:10 I needed to look her in the eye and ask her how she could treat me like that.
01:13 And did it work?
01:15 No, of course it didn't.
01:16 Now I'm in an even worse mess.
01:19 What are you talking about?
01:21 Not here.
01:25 Right.
01:26 What's this?
01:36 Uh, I've been going through Frankie's wardrobe.
01:39 All this stuff is too small for her.
01:42 Are you joking?
01:43 She got anything left up there?
01:44 I've made a pile to give to Amelia, but I'm thinking I might try and sell some of these dresses.
01:49 Gonna need some money from somewhere to buy some new stuff.
01:53 Seeing as I'm gonna be at the B&B for the forseeable.
01:55 Thought you was gonna try another bank.
01:57 See if they'll lend you the money instead.
01:58 Yeah, then I realised I'm kidding myself,
02:00 pretending their answer's gonna be any different.
02:02 I've got Diddly Squat to guarantee a loan.
02:05 I'm not just gonna hand over the cash, cos they asked nicely, are they?
02:08 Yeah, I guess not.
02:09 It's never gonna be a breeze, though, is it?
02:11 Setting up a business from scratch.
02:12 No, I know that.
02:13 I just hate this feeling of treading water, of scraping by.
02:18 I want Frankie to have everything she needs.
02:21 She has.
02:22 She's got a mum and dad that love her to bits and are crazy about each other.
02:25 I reckon that's plenty to be smug about, don't you, Mrs Robinson?
02:29 Well, when you put it like that.
02:32 She wants me to get all the charges against her dropped.
02:38 I bet she does.
02:39 Could work with that one.
02:40 Only it's not that simple.
02:42 Why ain't it?
02:43 There's this photograph.
02:52 Of me, taken after we'd, um...
02:55 I thought she'd deleted it.
02:59 I asked her to, but...
03:00 turns out she kept it for insurance.
03:04 Wait, she's blackmailing you?
03:08 Yeah.
03:08 Says if I don't retract my statement by tomorrow afternoon,
03:11 she will send the photograph to every single one of my phone contacts,
03:16 which she also took without my permission.
03:18 You're not gonna give in to her, though, right?
03:22 You heard what I said.
03:23 One press of a button and she could ruin me.
03:28 Mary, it's against the law.
03:30 She'd get arrested.
03:31 Well, some consolation.
03:32 That'll be why my image is pinging its way around Yorkshire.
03:35 Perhaps I just need all of this to go away.
03:39 Have you thought of that?
03:40 No, I haven't.
03:42 Because she no victim.
03:44 What, you're stronger than this?
03:46 Shush now.
03:48 Last thing I need is Rona knowing.
03:50 Are you sure about that?
03:51 Susie, please.
03:53 You can't say a thing.
03:55 OK, but I think you should.
03:57 My call, right?
03:58 You all right, love?
04:00 I was just about to ask you the same.
04:01 I mean, if your migraine has shifted.
04:03 You were still in bed when I left.
04:04 Oh, yeah, much better, thanks.
04:06 I think I nipped it in the bud taking the day off yesterday.
04:10 I'm so sorry I left Marlon in the lurch.
04:12 Yeah, so was he.
04:13 What with him not being allowed in the kitchen without an assistant.
04:16 I nipped home yesterday.
04:19 I nipped home yesterday.
04:20 When you said your head was bad, I thought you'd be there.
04:23 Oh, yes, I went over to David, see if he had anything for it.
04:27 And then I thought maybe a walk would take the edge off.
04:30 Right.
04:31 I said I'm sorry, love.
04:34 I know, I know.
04:35 It's just, you know, it was your first proper shift.
04:37 And Marlon really needs you to be reliable.
04:39 And so I will be from now on.
04:41 I promise.
04:42 I've got Leo at home today with a poorly tummy.
04:45 Marlon's sat with him now.
04:46 I don't suppose you could be with him for an hour, could you?
04:48 Later, just Marlon needs to nip out.
04:51 Of course I can.
04:51 You can rely on me, Poppy.
04:53 That's good to know.
04:54 Have you got a sec, Tracy?
05:04 Sure.
05:06 What's up?
05:07 Well, I've been doing a spot check on Dame Judy.
05:10 And I noticed that the toilet roll hasn't been folded into a crisp point.
05:14 Sorry, I thought I did.
05:17 Well, it was folded, I'll give you that.
05:19 But rather lopsided.
05:20 Oh, I'll get my tape measure out next time.
05:24 Pretend I work at the Savoy, eh?
05:27 Well, there's no need to be sarcastic.
05:29 Because happy guests means better reviews and juicier tips.
05:33 We all win.
05:34 Apart from I just cleaned the rooms, Bernice.
05:36 Is this about the bank knocking you back yesterday?
05:40 Because I can understand you must be disappointed.
05:43 But dwelling on it isn't going to help.
05:47 It's much better to focus on what you have got.
05:49 You know, a solid job with an understanding boss.
05:52 Should my ears be burning?
05:53 No, I was talking about me.
05:54 Oh, right.
05:56 I've got to go to the cash and carry.
05:57 If I can just find that card that I need.
05:59 Look, I'm grateful for the job, obviously.
06:03 But I want to feel like I'm moving forward with my life.
06:06 It's going to take me ages to raise that cash working here.
06:09 Well, that's when you are working.
06:11 Because as good as one, it wasn't your break.
06:14 Look, why don't you take your mind off things by finishing those beds?
06:18 Because they won't make themselves, will they?
06:20 Come on, chip chop.
06:21 I found your poo bingo, Leo love.
06:28 Looks delightful, Leo.
06:31 Are you in the sitting room?
06:33 This is very interesting.
06:36 Look, here's grandma.
06:40 Leo was just showing me a new app he's got.
06:44 I'll see now.
06:45 Leo poppet, would you take your tablet upstairs?
06:51 Go on, love.
06:52 Good boy.
06:53 What the hell are you playing at?
06:59 I best remind you, the clock is ticking.
07:02 Look, I've been mulling over how embarrassed you'd be if this got out.
07:07 But not just you.
07:08 Your whole family.
07:12 Imagine how April would look at you.
07:15 And the stick she'd get at school.
07:19 Why are you doing this?
07:20 Because I cared for you?
07:22 Because I thought you were decent?
07:23 Because I don't want to go to prison, Mary.
07:26 Regrettably for you, I've got nothing to lose.
07:31 So why go down without a fight, I say?
07:34 So I said to Jay, I want him and Rishi on better terms.
07:41 Especially for the wedding.
07:43 Apparently I'm taking sides.
07:45 So what can you do other than wait for Jay to grow up?
07:48 Yeah, I know.
07:48 It doesn't stop me feeling awful, though.
07:51 Save yourself the agro.
07:52 Focus on your Hindu instead.
07:54 Oh no, I was hoping that I'd get away without one.
07:57 Why?
07:57 Well, because I've already had three.
08:00 Four feels just a bit, you know, greedy.
08:02 Sorry, plans are already underway, Sven.
08:05 Oh, what?
08:06 Stop following me everywhere.
08:08 I only offered to come to the shops with you.
08:09 Yeah, maybe I want to go on my own.
08:11 Oh dear.
08:14 What's happened, love?
08:15 He went off on one.
08:16 Reckons I'm turning into his stalker.
08:18 They've been bickering a lot lately.
08:20 You know, since their exams have finished,
08:21 they've been living in each other's pockets.
08:23 It's not me, all right.
08:24 He's doing my head in.
08:25 Everything okay?
08:28 Does it look like it?
08:29 Hey, don't take it out on Rishi.
08:31 He's just, you know, falling out with Marshall.
08:35 Ah.
08:36 Why don't I get you a milkshake?
08:40 You can moan to me about it.
08:42 Promise, I won't snitch.
08:43 Yeah, all right.
08:45 Great.
08:46 Thanks, Rishi.
08:49 Oh, my pleasure.
08:50 Makes a change to feel useful.
08:53 I could tell the police what you're doing.
09:02 What, and expose yourself to more humiliation,
09:04 if you'll forgive the turn of phrase?
09:07 No, I won't forgive you.
09:09 I won't forgive any of it.
09:10 Good job all I care about is you retracting
09:12 your statement, then.
09:13 Supposing I was thinking about it,
09:19 but what's to stop you blackmailing me again?
09:22 You've still got the photo.
09:24 We can meet tomorrow.
09:27 And once the police confirm that the charges
09:30 have been dropped, obviously,
09:32 you can delete the photo yourself.
09:35 Verona.
09:36 What is she doing here?
09:38 Me and Mary.
09:39 We're just having a little chat.
09:40 What sort of chat?
09:41 Did you invite her?
09:42 Of course I didn't.
09:43 Good.
09:44 Then I would like you to leave right now,
09:45 or I am calling the police.
09:47 Don't worry, I'm not stopping.
09:48 And I'm guessing it is a date for tomorrow afternoon, then.
09:54 Let's say 2 o'clock.
09:55 What's the date?
09:56 What is she talking about?
09:56 Oh, Mary will fill you in.
09:58 I'll be in touch with you.
10:00 I'll be in touch with you.
10:01 I'll be in touch with you.
10:02 I'll be in touch with you.
10:03 I'll be in touch about where to meet.
10:05 Teddy bear.
10:07 Mum?
10:16 What on earth?
10:32 I wasn't comfortable with her taking the picture at the time
10:37 and asked her to delete it.
10:40 She lied that she had.
10:42 Oh, Mum.
10:43 And now she's threatening to send it to everyone on my phone.
10:48 Everyone, Verona.
10:53 As if I haven't been made enough of a fool of.
10:56 You are not a fool.
10:58 Fay is evil.
11:01 And you've just been horribly unlucky.
11:04 Or rather, she sought me out because I'm an easy target.
11:07 Why did you even let her in here?
11:10 I didn't.
11:10 I just nipped upstairs to get Leo's game when I came back.
11:14 She was there.
11:14 With Leo?
11:16 Yeah.
11:16 Sitting on the sofa with him, looking at his tablet like nothing was amiss.
11:20 I don't believe this.
11:21 So she's broken in here and then she tries to involve Leo in all of this?
11:27 No, no, no.
11:27 She didn't upset Leo at all.
11:29 I'm certain of that.
11:31 She's, um...
11:31 She's given me until tomorrow to retract my statement.
11:39 No, Mum.
11:42 You can't.
11:43 Look, her blackmailing you and showing up here only strengthens the case against her.
11:48 That woman needs locking up.
11:49 And in the meantime, I'm laughed about and ridiculed like some stupid, desperate, gullible woman.
11:56 She is not going to do this to you, okay?
11:59 We will fix this.
12:00 I promise.
12:01 We?
12:01 Who's we?
12:03 You're not to tell anyone.
12:04 You must promise me that.
12:05 No, I mean you and me, okay?
12:08 We will work through this together.
12:10 How?
12:10 I lay awake all night trying to think of a solution.
12:13 There isn't one.
12:14 I lose whatever happens.
12:16 I need to go for a walk.
12:20 Get rid of this headache before I start work.
12:22 Right, I'll come with you.
12:23 No, no, no.
12:24 I...
12:26 I want to spend some time alone.
12:28 Yeah, well, apparently, Priya's got some important work thing in Copenhagen that week,
12:37 so, well, she's told us off for not giving people enough notice.
12:40 What? So she's gonna miss the wedding?
12:42 Yeah, well, I guess it can't be helped.
12:44 Well, in good news, Nicola's twisted my arm to have a hen do.
12:50 Ooh!
12:51 Well, you know what?
12:53 I guess one of the benefits of being on bad terms with my dad is I don't have to deal with
12:56 any of that stag-doom malarkey.
12:58 Oh!
13:00 What?
13:01 It's Nicky-ill.
13:02 He can't take Molly out of her new school to bring her over here for the wedding.
13:06 On the plus side, they're sending us some fancy restaurant vouchers as a present.
13:10 Oh, I'm sorry.
13:11 Well, like I say, what can we do?
13:14 Well, you could rethink not inviting your mum and dad.
13:18 I mean, you can't have no family at the wedding.
13:20 Who says I can't?
13:21 What do you want me to do?
13:25 Just sweep it all under the carpet so we can all smile for the photos?
13:29 Just think about how much it's gonna hurt to exclude them, especially Rishi.
13:34 But it's alright that he's hurt me.
13:35 No, it's not okay.
13:36 People make mistakes, life is short, but I'm worried that if you don't invite them to your
13:40 wedding, you're gonna ruin things between you forever.
13:43 Hi again.
13:52 Hi.
13:55 *Clears throat*
13:56 Can I get you a drink?
13:57 I'm surprised you'd offer, after what Gabby said the other day.
14:02 Admittedly, it was a bit of a shock, but I like to make up my own mind about people.
14:09 Come on, if you turn me down, I'll end up watching the chase for my Uncle Rishi again.
14:15 Alright, fine.
14:17 Thanks.
14:18 Great.
14:22 Let's, unless you fancy going somewhere a little less dead,
14:25 could head to Leeds, see what trouble we can find?
14:30 I should probably stay around here.
14:33 I said to me dad I might meet him for a drink later.
14:36 Come on, live a little.
14:38 You might just enjoy it.
14:40 Look, I don't mind having a drink with you, but I'm not looking to hook up, okay?
14:45 Fine, whatever.
14:48 I thought we were getting on the other day, but obviously I got it wrong.
14:51 Yeah, obviously you did, yeah.
14:53 Look, I'm not completely over my ex, if I'm honest.
15:00 Plus, there's all the stuff with Gabby and...
15:03 Yeah, I'm just not in the right headspace for anything at the minute.
15:06 Chill, okay? You don't owe me your life story.
15:09 Sorry to keep you waiting. What can I get you?
15:11 Nothing anymore.
15:11 See you, Nicky.
15:13 Look, I didn't mean to sound like an idiot. I'm sorry.
15:18 You're not sorry?
15:19 Smoothly done, Nicky.
15:25 I wouldn't beat yourself up too much about it.
15:26 Runs in our family being rubbish with blokes.
15:29 Sorry?
15:30 No, it is actually a thing.
15:31 I did kind of hope that it got less with each generation, but maybe not.
15:35 Magic.
15:37 Yeah, it is, isn't it? You get it from your gran.
15:39 The gift that keeps on giving, that one.
15:47 Trace, I think I've overestimated the amount I can carry in from the car.
15:50 Of course. That is what I get paid for, after all.
15:55 Well, that and toilet roll origami, apparently.
16:00 Come again?
16:01 Nothing, ignore me. I'm not in the best mood.
16:06 Yeah, I heard you talking to Bernice earlier.
16:10 Bit of a blow, eh? The bank bursting your balloon like that.
16:15 Yep.
16:17 Especially with you young folk expecting everything the second you decide you want it.
16:21 Oi!
16:22 What?
16:23 You're a millennial, aren't you? All that entitled narcissism, uber confidence.
16:28 I'm a heck.
16:30 Exactly. Which is why a tough cookie like you doesn't take knockbacks personally.
16:36 Come on, you're not some flaky, work-shy sort
16:41 who's not prepared to earn your chance. You're far from that.
16:43 Course I'm not.
16:46 There you go, then.
16:47 Now, building a business, it takes time and a huge dollop of honest graft.
16:53 So doing these less glamorous jobs, it puts money in your piggy bank.
16:58 There's no fairy godmother dishing out fast-track passes.
17:02 No, I know that.
17:03 Well, I knew you knew. Because you're savvy, aren't you?
17:05 I think I'm just gonna go make the beds.
17:11 Course, yeah. Good plan.
17:13 Nicely handled, Robert.
17:15 Quite shrewd sometimes, aren't you?
17:18 Yeah. I'm not just a nice bloke with killer dance moves.
17:22 I am actually quite wise beneath this devastatingly attractive packaging.
17:28 Mum. Mum! Could you please stop doing that before you cut your finger off? Will you look at me, please?
17:48 Having to face Piers is a real pain in the ass.
17:51 I'm aware of that.
17:52 Then stand up to her!
17:53 No! I'm already getting cold feet about going into court, having the whole thing dredged up again,
17:59 my stupidity being put on the line.
18:01 I'm not going to stand up to her.
18:03 I'm not going to stand up to her.
18:05 I'm not going to stand up to her.
18:06 I'm not going to stand up to her.
18:08 I'm not going to stand up to her.
18:09 I'm not going to stand up to her.
18:11 I'm not going to stand up to her.
18:13 I'm not going to stand up to her.
18:14 I'm not going to stand up to her.
18:16 I'm not going to stand up to her.
18:18 I'm not going to stand up to her.
18:20 My stupidity being put on public show!
18:22 Loving someone isn't stupid!
18:24 Even so, I have to deal with the fallout.
18:27 I have the opportunity here to stop this, spare myself the shame of it all.
18:30 Are you honestly telling me that in my position you wouldn't be remotely...
18:34 No, I wouldn't!
18:36 You wouldn't.
18:37 I'm not you, am I?
18:39 You know you're not the only one who could go to the police over this.
18:44 What?
18:44 Well, Faye was in my house.
18:47 She was with my son.
18:49 She definitely stole my passport after she conned you.
18:51 I could go to the police about her blackmailing you.
18:54 You would go against my wishes?
18:56 Only to pretend to, Mum!
18:58 That woman could be bluffing about that photo.
19:01 People like her are cowards deep down.
19:04 What if she's not bluffing?
19:06 Everything all right? I can hear you down the corridor.
19:11 What did you hear exactly?
19:12 No, we're fine, Chas.
19:14 Mum and I are just having a heated debate about something.
19:16 All right, then. I'll have two chicken tikka wraps when you're ready, please, Mary.
19:20 Yeah, right, absolutely. No problem.
19:23 You did hear the part about him barely speaking to me?
19:30 No, I'm sorry, Georgia. I'm sticking to the story.
19:33 Look, I'm really sorry. I've got to go.
19:35 Yes, now.
19:37 All right, Uncle Rish Rish.
19:41 Hello, cheeky. What are you grinning about?
19:44 Oh, um, may have found someone outside.
19:46 Jay?
19:50 I'm not stopping. I just came to give you this.
19:52 It's an invitation to the wedding.
19:58 But I thought...
20:00 Laurel persuaded me that the kids would miss you if you weren't there, so...
20:02 It's not fair dragging them into it.
20:04 No, still.
20:06 I shall be honoured to be there regardless.
20:08 Thank you.
20:12 Right, well, I shall be going.
20:14 Stay for a bit.
20:16 Stay for a cup of tea.
20:18 Oh, you can watch the chase, or this.
20:20 No, you're all right. I'll catch you later.
20:22 Bye, son.
20:24 And thank you again.
20:26 That is progress, I reckon.
20:30 Just wish he hadn't made it so clear it wasn't his idea.
20:34 Jay's way, isn't it?
20:36 You can't say all's forgiven without feeling like a bit of a walle.
20:40 This is good. Trust me.
20:42 You do know what it took for me to come out at my age.
20:52 And what Faye's done.
20:56 She's tainted all that.
20:58 I...
21:00 I wish I'd never put myself out there.
21:02 Mum, all you did was care about someone.
21:04 It's Faye who should be ashamed of herself.
21:06 Yeah, but I'm ashamed too for having let her fool me.
21:08 All I can do is claw back what little dignity I have left.
21:12 Which is why...
21:16 I am going to retract my statement tomorrow.
21:20 Mum, please.
