00:32 It's too quiet in there.
00:42 It's a bit rubbish.
00:44 Definitely a bit rubbish.
00:47 Gus will be out with her by now probably.
00:50 I expect so.
00:52 Then she'll be super hungry.
00:53 I'll let him know about it.
00:55 He knows what he's doing.
00:58 Of course he does.
01:00 What?
01:04 Sad pair.
01:06 Them?
01:08 No us.
01:09 Complaining about not being woken up at six in the morning.
01:12 I'm gonna go in.
01:16 It's freezing out here.
01:27 Can you do without me till this afternoon?
01:29 Why? Since when?
01:31 Since something's come up.
01:33 Anything I should know about?
01:35 If it was something you should know about I'd have told you.
01:37 Council work.
01:39 You don't work for the council anymore?
01:41 Thanks for reminding me.
01:43 I'm returning some files.
01:45 Shouldn't take long.
01:46 Egg, toast.
01:52 Grasp the moment, Nate.
01:54 Making other people breakfast isn't one of my signature moves.
01:57 Isn't that right?
01:59 Hmm.
02:00 Ruby's domesticated like a boa constrictor's domesticated.
02:03 She prefers sleeping indoors but she'll choke the life out of you if she's bored.
02:07 Hey.
02:10 You know me and the silver fox there, we've split up and got back together more times than Will and Jada.
02:15 Some couples are like that.
02:17 Just need little breaks.
02:18 Me and Chase ain't like that.
02:19 And this ain't a little break.
02:21 So when are you gonna go round and interrogate her again then?
02:23 Ruby.
02:24 I'm just curious.
02:25 It's none of your business.
02:27 Last night he went to bed saying he was gonna make her tell him.
02:29 Just leave him alone.
02:30 Fine.
02:31 Well I'm glad Caleb invited you to stay here.
02:35 Even if you're not much of a talker.
02:37 Anyone else want a coffee?
02:42 No thank you.
02:43 We've done nothing but drink coffee for the last half an hour.
02:46 I know it's harder than it looks leaving the house with a baby.
02:49 Is it?
02:51 No is it really that hard?
02:53 So um, how do you feel now you've, you know, flown solo?
03:01 I feel I should pin some wings onto you.
03:02 Well instead of wings maybe like a little silver nappy or something.
03:06 She's hungry.
03:07 She's just eaten.
03:08 That's why we were late.
03:10 Did you sit her up right when you fed her?
03:12 Yeah.
03:13 You got her to burp?
03:14 Like a foghorn.
03:16 Right shoulder tilted to the left.
03:19 I taught him the wonky winding technique.
03:22 I know.
03:24 She seems fine.
03:25 Oh she's been great.
03:27 I mean, I was worried, I'm not gonna lie, I thought she could be crying all night.
03:32 Because she's so used to you being the one to pick her up, comfort her, feed her, everything.
03:36 But she was fine.
03:39 If it wasn't for me renting it in we wouldn't even have a budget.
03:43 Tom's just like it's our special day if you want it.
03:45 And it doesn't bother you?
03:47 What doesn't?
03:49 That he might be marrying an idiot.
03:50 That's right, yeah.
03:52 That bag in his head, doesn't know what he's saying.
03:55 I was meant to be here yesterday.
03:59 Yeah, I was busy.
04:00 What if I'm busy today?
04:01 Oh right, I'll take her away again.
04:03 Hang on, hang on.
04:04 You wanna know about saving money?
04:06 Easy man.
04:07 Weddings.
04:08 Nobody's gone on about saving money except you.
04:10 My son here thought it best not to invite his own family.
04:13 Yeah well the less said about that the better, Cain.
04:15 But you won't want advice off me anyway.
04:16 My marriage is over.
04:17 What you on about?
04:18 It's over. We're done.
04:20 Since when?
04:21 Since yesterday.
04:22 When Tracy told me the whole thing's been a joke.
04:23 Well that sounds like a row.
04:24 I know the difference.
04:25 Don't buzz me when it's done, I'm staying at Caleb's.
04:27 Caleb's?
04:28 Yeah, so don't look for me over there.
04:29 Well hang on.
04:30 Wouldn't you rather stay at your dad's?
04:31 No, I'm fine.
04:32 Nate!
04:33 Erm, I wanna put something to you.
04:41 Oh yeah?
04:44 I had such a good time last night as I'm sure you can tell.
04:47 Where is this going?
04:49 It felt right.
04:51 I mean after everything that's happened.
04:53 I didn't think it would, but it did.
04:55 It was one night, Gus.
04:57 Yeah, I'm aware of that.
05:00 Don't pass my bubble, it's a good thing.
05:02 What is? You still haven't said.
05:04 Er, well I think it's time me and this little one started thinking about
05:12 where's gonna be our home exactly long term.
05:15 Does he put double shots in this coffee or am I just a bit nervous?
05:22 Real nervous.
05:25 I mean, what is it? Some kind of sick joke?
05:33 Or power play?
05:34 I just assumed it was at yours.
05:37 Why would he stay with Caleb?
05:39 I don't know, ask your...
05:42 Ask Caleb.
05:43 We're not meant to talk him.
05:46 What?
05:50 Nothing, it's just I keep thinking it's such a total waste.
05:54 What did you say to me yesterday?
05:56 Stop messing him around.
05:58 Yeah, I know I did.
05:59 And make a decision.
06:00 Aye, and look at you now, are you happy?
06:02 Sorry.
06:05 Frank is upstairs, I don't want it getting unsettled.
06:11 *Sighs*
06:12 Tracy, are you sure there's no other way?
06:19 Look, you said yourself you've been stressed about work.
06:27 It's not work stress, it's someone else.
06:29 You don't know that.
06:31 Erm, haven't you got work?
06:35 Not for ages.
06:36 Look, come on, let's get out of here.
06:38 I'll get you something to eat.
06:40 Oh, alright.
06:42 Here.
06:44 Service and two new tyres.
06:47 Cheers.
06:48 And can you tell him to get out of the house and stop moping about?
06:51 You definitely need to get out of the house.
06:54 Alright, get my shoes.
06:56 Appreciate it.
07:02 You keep an eye on him.
07:04 No, that's nothing.
07:05 What, it's something.
07:07 Has he said anything about what's happened?
07:10 It doesn't make sense.
07:12 What doesn't make sense is why he isn't over there demanding to know who the other bloke is.
07:16 How's that going to help?
07:17 He's better off just moving on.
07:19 You can't move on until you know.
07:21 Trust me.
07:22 Nicola?
07:33 Surprised?
07:35 Not really.
07:37 People show up here when they're dealing with stress or in a crisis.
07:43 I'm just glad you thought you could come.
07:45 I'll be glad to offer you some spiritual assistance.
07:51 How about some practical assistance?
07:54 I don't follow.
07:56 You know, in a few days the Houghton Youth Justice Authority are going to visit to talk to Angel.
08:02 Sorry, yeah.
08:05 It's a lot.
08:07 It is a lot for a 14 year old.
08:10 Not as much though as getting locked up, which is what is going to happen.
08:16 I feel for you, Nicola.
08:19 Do you?
08:21 Enough to help?
08:22 Do you want me to talk to her?
08:24 No, I don't think so.
08:25 Then what?
08:27 A character reference.
08:29 A character reference?
08:31 The local vicar explaining that Angelica he knows is good and kind and a valuable member of the local community which certainly can't do any harm.
08:40 Hmm.
08:41 What?
08:43 I don't know.
08:45 Nothing more than what you did for Amelia.
08:49 Do you remember?
08:51 Before Dan sentencing you wrote a character witness for her.
08:54 Amelia, I mean...
08:56 She helped out at the church for years.
09:00 Not just me, my predecessors as well.
09:02 I'm sure Angel would love to help out.
09:04 That's not really the point.
09:06 Just say when and she'll be here.
09:08 Charles?
09:11 You're putting me in a very difficult position.
09:15 No, I'm not.
09:17 You're the vicar, it's your job to help people.
09:20 I'm asking you to help my daughter.
09:25 You're not actually going to refuse?
09:27 Rona?
09:31 Hey.
09:36 Oh, no.
09:38 No, don't fuss, please.
09:40 I'm okay.
09:41 We always knew it was going to happen, eh?
09:46 It's just...
09:48 So fast.
09:50 I know.
09:53 Where is he?
09:54 Uh...
09:56 He went for a walk with your mum.
09:58 You know, he understands.
10:01 Tell you he feels bad about it.
10:02 I'm not ready.
10:04 Will you ever be?
10:06 I love her, Marlon.
10:09 I love her.
10:11 I love her.
10:13 I'm genuinely disgusted.
10:29 I barely know your daughter.
10:31 So you're punishing her for not attending church?
10:33 No.
10:34 Yes, that's exactly what you're doing.
10:35 Or what?
10:36 You think my daughter's an awful person?
10:38 Of course I'm not saying that.
10:40 Then write a letter!
10:42 That's all I'm asking.
10:43 What's it to you?
10:44 Nothing. Five minutes of your time.
10:46 What about her teachers?
10:48 They generally know her.
10:49 Surely they can help?
10:51 I actually can't believe this.
10:54 I thought you were meant to help the community.
10:59 I thought it was your job.
11:01 How quickly everyone forgets.
11:08 Right. All silent now.
11:11 I'm not sure what you mean.
11:15 No, of course you're not.
11:17 Naomi.
11:19 Everything that I went through thanks to your daughter.
11:25 I don't know what that's got to do with this.
11:28 You don't feel that maybe...
11:31 ..you owe me?
11:34 Have you had any more thoughts about me?
11:36 Have you had any more thoughts about your best man?
11:39 I'm worried if I ask him, he'll feel like he has to say yes
11:44 and he won't really want to.
11:47 Because of the Angelica situation.
11:49 Thing is, every time I try to think of an alternative,
11:53 it always comes back to Uncle Jimmy.
11:56 He's it.
11:59 He's my family.
12:01 Ask him.
12:03 Jimmy?
12:06 Have either of you seen my wife on your travels?
12:09 She won't pick up, but I'm supposed to be at the yard.
12:11 Jimmy, just say if you're not ready for this right now,
12:14 and I won't be offended, I promise, but...
12:17 ..I need a best man.
12:19 Me?
12:21 Me?
12:23 I don't know.
12:25 I'm chuffed, honestly, I am,
12:28 but I don't think I'm what you need on your big day.
12:34 In case you hadn't noticed,
12:36 me and Nicola are not the most popular people
12:39 in the village at the moment.
12:41 The last thing you need is a cursed best man.
12:44 You're not cursed.
12:46 How am I going to write a funny speech?
12:48 Who's going to laugh at it?
12:50 I'm sorry, but...
12:52 ..I'm flattered.
12:55 I'm just a complication you don't need.
12:58 I understand.
13:00 How are you holding up?
13:02 If I could find Nicola.
13:04 Oh, what a mess.
13:06 What?
13:10 I don't know, just...
13:12 Jimmy, Bob, Nate,
13:14 I state everyone's in.
13:16 It's like we're pushing our happiness in their face.
13:19 What are you doing here?
13:24 Are you crazy?
13:26 Are you? Why, Tracy?
13:28 Why would you do that?
13:30 Are you talking about me and Nate?
13:32 Everyone's talking about you and Nate, and they're all asking the same question.
13:36 Well, the question I want to know the answer to
13:38 is what the hell is he doing staying with you?
13:41 I had to.
13:43 Why, for the lols? It's totally sick.
13:45 You actually think I want him there?
13:47 Trust me, Ruby's giving it the softly spoken act at the minute,
13:50 but she is an orange jumpsuit away from going full-on Guantanamo
13:53 and waterboarding the truth out of him.
13:55 Why don't I go tell her the truth?
13:58 Oh, get over yourself.
14:00 You are not the reason I have split up with my husband.
14:04 Now get out.
14:06 I said go!
14:08 What are you doing here?
14:14 Sorry, you've caught me.
14:16 Just came round to pick up some of your stuff and take it back to the house.
14:18 Save you any awkwardness.
14:20 Looks like it's kind of backfired.
14:22 It's not like I'm never setting foot in here again.
14:24 No, no, I know.
14:26 Look, I don't want things to change for Frankie any more than they have to.
14:30 Agreed.
14:31 Good.
14:32 I'm going to stay for a bit.
14:34 Read her a story before she goes to bed.
14:36 Nick.
14:39 No one's trying to write you out of a life.
14:43 You've done it before.
14:44 We'll try it again and see what happens.
14:46 Nick!
14:47 You are far too good at lying.
14:54 It's a good job that one of us is.
14:56 Don't ruin any more lives, Tracy.
15:01 Hello.
15:07 You look...
15:11 You look brighter.
15:12 Yeah, pulled myself together.
15:21 You know, we're all allowed to feel a bit...
15:24 lost sometimes.
15:26 Don't worry, I'm not storing it all up for some giant cataclysmic eruption later.
15:31 I just decided that if I...
15:34 can't control this situation in a meaningful way,
15:37 then I should at least try and stop it from upsetting me.
15:40 Very good.
15:42 When you've worked out how to do that, will you let me know?
15:48 (SIGHS)
15:49 I don't think he wants to come.
16:00 Who?
16:01 Uncle Jimmy.
16:03 I mean, he'll come because he doesn't want to upset me,
16:06 and you know, that's what he's like,
16:08 but I think he's dreading it.
16:11 I mean, half the village are going to be there,
16:13 everybody drinking and dancing except him...
16:17 and Nicola.
16:19 And Bob.
16:21 And Brittany.
16:23 What are we doing?
16:25 Getting married.
16:27 No, I just mean with such a massive production.
16:30 When there's people actually grieving,
16:33 or stressing about the marriage and the kids,
16:35 should we not just scale it back a bit?
16:37 I'm not bothered about you dreading,
16:40 but with all the cost and the stress, are you?
16:43 I don't know. No.
16:45 OK, then. So, best man, no best man.
16:48 Oh, the flowers are the wrong colour, the food's overcooked.
16:51 Who actually cares?
16:53 All that matters is I love you,
16:56 and you love me, I am hoping.
16:59 And our friends are going to hear us say that.
17:02 Who can be offended by that?
17:04 I can't think of anyone.
17:09 Come here.
17:11 I told her I'd be back soon.
17:23 Nick.
17:26 You are going to be OK, are you?
17:30 Yeah.
17:31 What do you want me to say?
17:33 Do you want me to make you feel better?
17:37 You don't understand. Oh, I don't.
17:39 I don't understand any of it.
17:41 It's like you've changed overnight.
17:43 You woke up and I don't even know you any more.
17:45 But we talked about it.
17:48 No, you talked about it and none of it made sense.
17:51 We should never have got back together.
17:56 I know why we did it.
17:58 I know why I did.
18:00 I don't think you do, though.
18:03 We both did it for the fantasy,
18:06 for the little family, for the happily ever after.
18:09 If we're grown-ups about this now,
18:14 we can still be a family,
18:17 just not one that lives together.
18:20 What are you even talking about, Chase?
18:22 Stop trying to sound clever. It's never suited you.
18:25 (DOOR OPENS)
18:27 (DOOR CLOSES)
18:31 Hey.
18:36 Hey.
18:37 She's OK?
18:43 She's OK. No, I'm embarrassed about it.
18:46 Listen, I'm...
18:51 I'm not going behind her back.
18:53 Just to be clear about what this is and what it isn't,
18:56 this is not... It is not two blokes in the pub sorting stuff out
18:59 because the woman's too emotional.
19:01 I mean, obviously, obviously it kind of is.
19:03 But I'm here for me as much as I am for Rona.
19:06 Trust me, you couldn't get a mandolin slicer between me and her.
19:10 A what?
19:12 Um...
19:14 It's a very finely-bladed kitchen.
19:16 It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.
19:18 What I'm saying is I'm struggling as well.
19:20 You know, you...
19:22 You don't take on the care of a little life like Ivy's
19:26 and not feel it.
19:28 You know, it's not easy.
19:30 I get it, I get it. Do you?
19:32 Not to mention what's best for Ivy.
19:35 You know, when Mary's well, she's seen...
19:37 She's seen lots of loving faces,
19:39 all making sure she's happy and stimulated.
19:42 All I did was have her for one night, and one...
19:44 No, no, it's not like that. It's about what you said.
19:47 So what are you suggesting, then?
19:51 I shouldn't want to spend time looking after my daughter?
19:54 Would that make you happy?
19:57 No, no.
19:59 But people...
20:01 ..co-parent.
20:05 Grown-ups, they get together and they talk like grown-ups
20:09 and come to...grown-up agreements.
20:13 Yeah, I mean, it's...
20:17 ..something we can think about.
20:21 DOOR OPENS
20:23 All right. Did you see Frankie?
20:26 My mum's doing a curry.
20:29 Not really hungry, sorry.
20:31 This is a nightmare.
20:38 Yeah, Dad, I've heard some prayers at this difficult time.
20:43 You be quiet.
20:45 So selfish.
20:48 You're such an idiot. You do realise you can't be the hero on this, don't you?
20:52 Nate's bestie. Right, you keep your mouth shut now.
20:55 Curry smells like it's burning.
20:57 Don't suppose anyone bothered to stir it?
20:59 Everything good?
21:03 Is that Nate I heard upstairs? Yeah.
21:06 Do you know what? I'm going to go and check in on him.
21:16 And you two?
21:18 Me and Dad. Sounded like a row.
21:20 Don't think so. Come on, Nicky, I wasn't born yesterday.
21:23 It's just Dad being, you know...
21:25 ..Dad.
21:28 You might want to check on that. Don't worry. I will.
21:34 Don't go anywhere. After the break, the new, mis-selling scandal
21:38 about hidden commission in car finance.
21:40 Millions of you erode billions of pounds back.
21:44 Don't go anywhere. After the break, the new, mis-selling scandal
21:48 about hidden commission in car finance.
21:50 Millions of you erode billions of pounds back.
21:53 Don't go anywhere. After the break, the new, mis-selling scandal
21:57 about hidden commission in car finance.
21:59 Millions of you erode billions of pounds back.
