00:30Well, what are you waiting for? A tip on the free coating. Go on, clear it all out of here.
01:01Hey, hey, hey, what?
01:03Sorry, I was miles away. Well, you know, I'm literally miles.
01:08Lucky I've got my Bruce Lee reflexes on point, eh?
01:12What's going on, mate? You all right?
01:14How did the NBO transfer go yesterday night?
01:17We won't know for a few weeks, but Sonia's doing well so far.
01:21That's good news, innit?
01:24Work's been a bit quiet lately. I'm just feeling the pinch.
01:28Well, just get your head down, mate. It'll all work out in the end.
01:30And will it? I mean, even if we are successful, that's only the beginning.
01:34Did you know it costs over £160,000 to raise a child these days?
01:38Tell me about it. I just sent half my wages to Whip for Dolly.
01:41But look, a man's got to do what a man's got to do, eh?
01:44Then I'm being hounded for Debbie's care on top of that.
01:46Can't be good for Son's stress levels, can it?
01:48No, no, no, I'd rather we kept that between us. I mean, she's got enough on her plate as it is.
01:54Yeah, listen, I've got to go to work, but just know, all new parents, they worry about money.
01:59You will be all right. At least you've got a roof over your head. See you in a bit.
02:13Slow down, handsome.
02:19You're either brave or stupid.
02:22And a good morning to you too.
02:24What are you doing back here? If any of your family see you, you've had it.
02:29If that's the way it has to be.
02:31Oh, God loves a trier, I suppose.
02:34Are you going to wish me luck or what?
02:36You don't need luck, sunshine. You need a miracle.
02:40Hey.
02:42Another PB in the bag. Come on.
02:45I'm getting closer to breaking that sub-25K.
02:49So, you getting excited?
02:51For what? Your sub-20?
02:54And your birthday in a couple of weeks.
02:5621, plenty of fun.
02:58Have you thought about a present yet?
03:00You can have anything you like, mate. Anything.
03:02What do you want?
03:03A present.
03:05Have you thought about a present yet?
03:07You can have anything you like, mate. Anything.
03:09Well, anything for a maximum of, like, 25 quid.
03:12Yeah.
03:13Yeah? Is that right? Money's a bit tight at the minute,
03:15especially with Lauren being out of work.
03:17Peter, it's fine. I mean, you really don't have to get me anything.
03:20A card's enough.
03:22Or if you really want to, just, like, a donation to a local food banquet or something.
03:26I don't know.
03:27Well, we'll forget the present.
03:29How about an old-fashioned knees-up, celebrating style?
03:32Look, Peter, I know that Anna and Freddie have put you up to this,
03:37but I really don't want to do anything.
03:40OK, yeah, Anna did have a word.
03:43But come on, Bob, what's so bad about turning 21?
03:45Lucy never did, did she?
03:48And I took that from her.
03:53For the first time in my life, Peter,
03:55I'm going to be older than our sister was when she died.
04:03How can I even think about celebrating that?
04:20You always here?
04:23Didn't you beat school?
04:25Free period, without your excuse and all.
04:28No, no, not exactly.
04:32You boys all good, or what?
04:35Fancy a kickabout?
04:37Nah, I'd rather watch a real thing.
04:40You could faint for hours.
04:41Yeah, but Den's got an appointment.
04:46Um, yeah, man, we're actually going to go to the doctor's.
04:51Get some proper advice about my steroid withdrawal.
04:54Definitely another time, but I'll shout you in it for sure.
04:58Good luck, yeah?
04:59Thank you, Bob, appreciate it.
05:03Let's go.
05:08Hey.
05:09Have you seen Bobby?
05:10We all live in the same house, so what do you reckon?
05:12Have you spoken to him about his birthday yet?
05:14Oh, not you at all, I've had Anna banging on about it, right?
05:17I've sorted out the cake, OK, and I'm going to decorate the house.
05:20He doesn't want to celebrate it because of Lucy.
05:24Look, I know it must be hard for him, right, and you too.
05:28I sort of think about her every day.
05:30I still hear her nagging voice every time I do something wrong.
05:33Yeah, so do I. I'm sure he does as well.
05:35Yeah, but that's why he wants to keep things low-key tomorrow.
05:38Yeah, I know, but it's a big day for him.
05:40It's a big day for all of us, we need to celebrate it as a family.
05:43OK, great, I'll call some mates.
05:46Shall I put some heads together then tomorrow?
05:48It's at, like, 10am, I'll see if Anna and Freddy are free.
05:52Everything all right?
05:55Er, yeah, yeah, I can't do it tomorrow.
05:59You can open the shop up a little bit later tomorrow.
06:01Yeah, I know, but I'm going to talk to your mum about rebranding.
06:05Right. Yeah, but we'll talk about it next week.
06:07Don't rush yourself.
06:17Something smells squid.
06:18Just been doing some batch cooking. Economise where we can, eh?
06:21Yeah, no, with that in mind, I wanted to run something past you.
06:24About the house.
06:25Well, you'd better make it quick, cos I'm off to a meditation class now.
06:28Since when?
06:29Well, I saw a poster outside the community centre,
06:31and I thought, well, worth a try, innit?
06:33Healthy mind, healthy body, that sort of thing.
06:37What's up with the house?
06:38Don't tell me we've got subsidence or something.
06:41All I need to do is keep my blood pressure up as low as possible.
06:46No, no, it's just, um...
06:49You know, the toilet, the flush felt a bit weak.
06:52Have you noticed a reduction in the flow recently?
06:55And that's what you wanted to talk to me about?
06:57You know, it's fine. I'll sort it. You go and, um, discover your zen.
07:01See you later.
07:02Right, darling.
07:03See you later.
07:25Hey, hey, where were you?
07:27Looking for a quick round here-hole or something?
07:29Practising some skills.
07:30Yeah, we can practice playing up.
07:32Like my wing mirrors.
07:34I thought you might have come to my fight last week.
07:36Yeah, yeah, sorry, I had some stuff to sort out.
07:40I heard it didn't go too well, but I'll be there for the next one, yeah?
07:43Yeah.
07:44I might try your scene instead.
07:56Oi, what did I tell you, eh?
07:58I told you to go and do this somewhere else, eh?
08:00I ain't in the mood today, all right?
08:07Well, what's all this in aid of, then?
08:09I caught a man buying pie for his older brother.
08:11Hey, less of the older.
08:13Good point.
08:14Don't fancy one of your right hooks any time soon.
08:17Truth be told, I'm worried about you.
08:20Last night, it was pretty heavy.
08:22Thought I'd take you for a drink, take your mind off things.
08:24Take my mind off things? I only slept a week.
08:27That's a lot to process.
08:29But it might get you in the mood for the semi-final later.
08:33That's true.
08:34Go on, get on it.
08:35Trace, could I get a G&T from me?
08:38Usual for Billy, two whiskeys, please.
08:42Listen, um, thank you.
08:45It's your round next, mate.
08:46No, no, I mean, yesterday, you know.
08:50Giving me confidence, you know, stand up for myself.
08:53I needed to hear that.
08:59Can I see two of you?
09:02Out.
09:03Billy!
09:04I said, get out before I throw you over.
09:05Easy, Bill.
09:06Look, I know you're in shock.
09:08Shock?
09:09You don't know the half of it.
09:11You got any idea what it's like to spend your whole life
09:14thinking that your mum didn't want you?
09:16Thinking, thinking that she left you
09:18because she had a win on the bingo?
09:21I used to cry myself to sleep at night,
09:23praying that she'd come home.
09:26Billy, boy, come on, now.
09:27Let's have a sit down.
09:29I told you to go.
09:30Wait until the time's right.
09:32No, the time is never going to be right.
09:34I can't disagree.
09:35The old boy's caused more wreckage than a breakage yard.
09:38But he's here now,
09:39so you might as well shake him for any other hidden gems.
09:42Cos if you don't hear him out,
09:44he's just going to keep coming back until you do.
09:50So, Bill, what do you think?
09:53I mean, it's a classic Victorian terrace.
09:55I mean, it's very sought-after property.
09:57Yeah, with authentic musty smell and original decor, by the looks of it.
10:01And the room's available straight away.
10:03Well, to be honest, I wasn't expecting viewings this quickly,
10:06so I'd have to run it past Sonia.
10:08Oh, yeah, of course.
10:09And we'd require the deposit and two months' rent up front.
10:13Two months?
10:14You know, that's the market these days.
10:16That's not a problem.
10:17I can send you a bank transfer this afternoon.
10:19So, I've got another viewing in Mile End.
10:22I'll wait to hear from you.
10:25Ah, no, no, the room's yours.
10:28Welcome aboard.
10:29Thanks.
10:32Sonia.
10:34This is Julian.
10:35Julian, this is my girlfriend, Sonia.
10:37Jules, it's lovely to meet you.
10:39Sorry, who are you?
10:40Oh, er, apologies.
10:42I'm your new...
10:43No, no, new.
10:44New to the area.
10:45He was just heading off, weren't you?
10:48Actually, I'm not sure this is for me, after all.
10:51It ain't for you.
10:52Hello!
10:53Sorry, door's open, hope you don't mind.
10:55And you are?
10:56Bryony, I'm here about the spare room.
10:58Before we go on the tour, full disclosure,
11:00I am prone to the occasional night terror,
11:02so, er, how good's your soundproofing?
11:08You've had chance after chance to tell him the truth,
11:11yet all this time you said nothing.
11:13I bottled it, didn't I?
11:15I didn't want to lose what I've only just found.
11:19Look, getting to know your family
11:21was one of the best things that happened to me.
11:24Janet and Will,
11:26I'd do anything for those little kids.
11:28You know, it was Phil who fitted you up,
11:32not Will, did you?
11:33What do you mean?
11:36I'm sorry, Billy, I should have told you.
11:39But that's me all over, ain't it?
11:41I'm a bad father.
11:43Always looking for the easy way out.
11:46Putting you in care.
11:48Messing your mother about.
11:50But that's the shame and the guilt
11:52I've got to live with for the rest of me days.
11:55So what are you looking for?
11:57Forgiveness?
11:58I know I've got no right to ask for that.
12:01And there's no sugar-coating it, is there?
12:04I made a lot of bad, bad mistakes, boy.
12:09But I have put used to it again.
12:12Put used to it together?
12:14Well, I think that counts for something, doesn't it?
12:18Look,
12:20I'm going to leave used to it to finish your drinks in peace.
12:29Look, for what it's worth,
12:31I'm very proud to have used to it
12:35as my boys.
12:43Thank you.
12:52They've gone.
12:55How could you even think of doing something like this?
12:58Rhys, I've been gone out an hour
13:00and you're practically moving strangers into my house.
13:03In fairness, I didn't imagine anyone would answer the ad so quickly.
13:06It's London, not out of Mongolia.
13:09I mean, do you remember what happened with Jed?
13:13This is my home.
13:15Dot's home.
13:16And I promised her I would look after it.
13:19And I'm trying to create a stress-free environment.
13:24We're meant to be a team in this together.
13:27And we are, every step of the way.
13:30I was just trying to think outside the box,
13:33raise some extra income.
13:34I know, and I appreciate that.
13:36But we're fine, aren't we?
13:37Now you've got that new client on board.
13:39We're doing all right.
13:41No, we're not.
13:44I'm behind on Debbie's care home fees.
13:47Since when?
13:49Well, they've been chasing me for the last couple of weeks
13:52and they called again yesterday.
13:55Yesterday?
13:57So it wasn't that new client who was calling you back?
14:01I've got a couple of days to pay the last bill.
14:07How bad is it?
14:09How far behind are we?
14:14Well, it's just a few weeks.
14:18But I didn't want to worry you.
14:21But that's why I put the ad up.
14:24If this transfer is successful,
14:26in nine months we're going to have another mouth to feed.
14:29You know, more clothes to buy, a nursery to build...
14:32I know, I know, and we'll manage, all right?
14:34We'll find a way.
14:35But we are not renting out the spare room.
14:38We'll have to think of something else to do.
14:55No, the, er, bus stop.
14:58Is that why?
14:59You're enjoying this, aren't you?
15:01Yeah, every minute.
15:02You're an hypocrite, you know.
15:04How many of your kids bother to pick up the phone on Father's Day?
15:07Yeah, well, we ain't talking about me, are we?
15:09No, good thing and all, because you don't come up smelling the roses either, do you?
15:12You're supposed to be here for Billy, aren't you?
15:14And what have you done for him since you've been here
15:16except make his life even worse?
15:17Billy's my boy and I'll always look out for him.
15:19Your boys will do anything to get away from you.
15:21Yeah, well, what about you?
15:23Your boy's in the nick, your daughter's in the algarve.
15:26You know, listen to me.
15:28You want to concentrate on the two little ones
15:30because they're soon going to grow up
15:32and they're going to abandon you and all.
15:34Yeah, well, I might not be perfect
15:35but I never let one of my kids rot in care.
15:37And I ain't lying to them about how their mother died either.
15:40You're a joke.
15:41None of your kids are ashamed of you.
15:46You're still in one piece, then?
15:48I take it you saw him.
15:50For what good, if dead?
15:52Forgiveness ain't like a tat you turn on and off.
15:55It's got to be earned.
15:56Takes time, effort.
15:59My boys hate me, Mo.
16:01And they're right.
16:03I should have stayed away.
16:05But, uh, I ain't quite prepared to go just yet.
16:12You fancy doing your boyfriend a final favour?
16:16No, no, that's great. No, thank you, mate.
16:18Yeah, I'll be in touch. Cheers.
16:19Hi.
16:20Hi, Lads.
16:21Hello.
16:22Putting out feelers for Bobby's birthday.
16:24Well, if you can't let your hair down when you're 21, when can you?
16:27At this rate, it's going to be me, Anna and Freddy playing darts in the Vic.
16:30What?
16:31I mean, I'm not Bobby's biggest fan,
16:33but surely you'd come up with something better than that.
16:35Put your heads together.
16:36Talk to your dad, he'll have some ideas.
16:38Yeah, about branding Beal's Eels.
16:41Wow.
16:42What are you on about?
16:43He only had the relaunch a few weeks ago.
16:45Doesn't need rebranding.
16:47Yeah, and I called in to him you two have a meeting tomorrow.
16:49It's the first I've heard of it.
16:52Why would you lie about that?
16:56Great, thanks.
17:00Oh, you've saved me a trip.
17:02Zak said he bumped into you earlier and, er, well, it got me thinking.
17:06How's your mate?
17:07Well, I've been trying to do my council week, but I've not made much headway.
17:11Oh, well, you have plenty of tools online.
17:13Well, I could do the hand.
17:15I've barely been able to face him since, er, Keanu.
17:18And I know things are a bit squeezed at the moment,
17:20so I thought maybe we could help each other out.
17:22I'd rather your brother didn't broadcast my affairs all over the square.
17:25I told him in confidence.
17:26Yeah, you're right, it's, er, it's not my business.
17:29Sorry.
17:31No, no, no, no.
17:32I'm sorry.
17:33It's a very kind offer and, well, I'd like to accept it, you know, if it's not too late.
17:39Well, it's only a bit of work, you dog.
17:41I'll take whatever I can get.
17:43You're a lifesaver.
17:45You're a lifesaver.
17:47I've been hiring the den for gym classes and boxing sessions.
17:50Must be owed thousands.
17:52How can you be waiting on that much money not to chase it up already?
17:56Although, I mean, I'll get on it for you.
17:58He's, um, tomorrow too soon.
18:01That's perfect.
18:02Thanks, Rhys.
18:06So is it four pie and mash or five pie and mash?
18:09We'll go to McClunger's if you don't want our business.
18:12Oi, faceache.
18:13Oi, what do you want?
18:16I'm not hungry.
18:17Oh, Tommy, come on. Grandboy needs all the strength he can get.
18:20I said I'm not hungry.
18:22Four pie and mash.
18:23What's got into you? You've had a cob on all afternoon.
18:27Oi, anything all right at school?
18:29It's fine.
18:30Is someone getting at you?
18:31I don't want to talk about it.
18:32OK, so there is something then, yeah?
18:34Come on out with it or do I go and see the headteacher?
18:37It's 19.20 when you're ready, yeah?
18:38All right, mate.
18:39Phil.
18:43There's a surprise, OK?
18:44So what's Meathead done now, then?
18:46I went to see him.
18:47Say hello.
18:48See why he didn't go to my boxing match.
18:50And?
18:51He just had a massive go at me for kicking the ball at the gate.
18:54It's like he doesn't even want to know me anymore.
18:56I'm going to kill him.
18:57No, Kat, no-one's killing anyone.
18:58Look, he took Tommy in, yeah?
19:00Looked after him like he was one of his own.
19:02And now he treats me like a bit of dirt scraped off his shoe.
19:04I'm not having it.
19:05You go in there guns blazing, you just make things worse.
19:07Oh, what, you're going to have a word with him?
19:09Because he'll wipe the floor with you, as usual.
19:11Stop arguing.
19:13I hate this.
19:14Hold on.
19:15You hate what?
19:16Tommy, come back.
19:18Go on, go and talk to him.
19:19I'll just make it worse.
19:20Go on.
19:22Oh, is someone going to pay you before you all leave?
19:33Well, any luck?
19:35Fat Elvis took me on some capers,
19:37but you could give him a run for his money.
19:40Here.
19:43I never got to be in my boy's life,
19:45but hopefully this will help him out a bit.
19:49Don't go without saying goodbye.
20:10Where's my mother?
20:12Son.
20:13Son, you seen my motor?
20:15Yeah, it's really nice.
20:16No, no, I mean, you seen anyone driving it today?
20:18Why, you lent it to someone?
20:19No, no, of course I didn't either.
20:21It's been nicked and my keys have gone missing.
20:23All right, well, don't shout at me, I didn't take it.
20:25Yeah, well, someone has, haven't they?
20:26If I find out who...
20:42I just want to see the kids one last time,
20:45and then I'm out of your life for good.
20:47Give me one good reason why I should let you.
20:50I never got to say goodbye to my mum, did I?
20:53Because you're a better man than I am,
20:55and I know you don't want that on your conscience.
20:58Please, Billy, one last time.
21:06All right, love?
21:07I've nearly finished.
21:08It's always a good day's trade when the footy's on.
21:11Why did you tell Peter we're talking about rebranding this place tomorrow?
21:14Are you fact-checking my every word?
21:16Well, it seems that I might have to, don't it?
21:18You didn't tell me we had a meeting.
21:20Um, well, no, it, um, slipped my mind, that was all.
21:24I'm done.
21:25So you are free to talk about Bobby's birthday tomorrow?
21:27Well, like I said, I've got a lot on at the moment,
21:29so, um, maybe next week, yeah?
21:31Ian?
21:32What are you hiding?
21:36All right, fine, there is something.
21:37It's, um, it's Walford Council.
21:40I'm thinking about standing for re-election as councillor.
21:44Since when?
21:45Well, I've had it on my mind for a while.
21:47And why didn't you tell me?
21:49Well, it's early days, isn't it?
21:51I mean, look, I might not get chosen to be a candidate,
21:53and I don't want to jinx it.
21:55And that's why you've been a bit cloak and dagger recently?
21:57Yeah, but I've been to a few meetings, you know,
21:59on the quiet, lively land.
22:01Oh.
22:02It's about time we started mixing in better circles.
22:04Look, it's early days.
22:05We don't want to get ahead of ourselves, do we?
22:07Um, I thought we could have these for our dinner.
22:14I'm going to miss you, Grandad.
22:18You're a good boy, Will.
22:20Keep up your studies and don't let anyone else push you around.
22:27You, young lady, you can be anything you want to be.
22:30Be good for your mum and dad and take care of your brother.
22:34I will.
22:36All right?
22:38Come on.
22:39Oi! It's all right. It's OK.
22:47Right, well, er...
22:49I suppose it's that time.
22:53Thank you for allowing me to fall in love with your beautiful family.
22:57I'm going to quote the Kinks.
22:59I won't forget a single day.
23:01Believe me.
23:06Thank you.
23:17You look happy for someone who's still in the doghouse.
23:22Look, I know I've got a lot making up to do.
23:26But, well, I've had some better news.
23:29Get on with it, then.
23:30Well, Sharon's off to let me do her books.
23:32On an ad hoc basis, at least.
23:34Right.
23:35It sounds like they're in a right old mess,
23:37so there should be plenty for me to get my teeth into.
23:40It'll help us pay the care home fees.
23:47I'm doing everything I can to give you, well, us, this baby.
23:51I'm just trying to keep our heads above water at the same time.
23:54I know.
23:55But you have to tell me about your money troubles.
23:58And don't spring any more housemates on me.
24:00It's harder than I thought it would be, that's all.
24:03You're telling me.
24:05I've been poked, prodded,
24:08and we've failed two rounds of IVF,
24:10all the while the clock keeps ticking.
24:13Look, I'm on edge every single day.
24:15I just need you to be honest with me, Rhys.
24:17Don't worry.
24:19No more random housemates, I promise.
24:22And don't let Sharon pay you mates' rates.
24:24You bill her for every penny you're owed.
24:26She can afford it.
24:28Don't worry.
24:30I think this job's just what we've been waiting for.
24:33Come on.
24:44Mate, you'd better teach Phil to keep his pockets done up, eh?
24:47Where you lot been, eh?
24:49I called you hours ago.
24:51In another life, we'd have made a pretty good team, wouldn't we?
24:55What, like the Kray twins?
24:57I was thinking more like Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor,
25:02or Bonnie and Clyde.
25:04I always knew you was a romantic at heart.
25:12Goodbye, Maureen.
25:16Bye.
25:24Bye, Billie.
25:27Son, I always loved you.
25:32You all right?
25:35Not really.
25:38I've lost me mum and dad twice over now.
25:44How about we put the match on?
25:45Get a takeaway, my treat.
25:50Yeah.
25:52I'll see what the kids fancy.
26:03DOOR CLOSES
26:09Want spring rolls, Bill?
26:11Yeah.
26:18Get some sweet and sour sauce as well.
26:21Gotcha.
26:32DOOR OPENS
27:02CHUCKLES
27:08Listen, I'm telling you, all right, it's someone from round here,
27:11and if you don't go door to door, I will. Listen to me, yeah?
27:17Turn it up, driver.
27:19And put your foot down while we're at it.
