00:00🎵
00:31Er, Jack, I can go to the call today, can't I?
00:35Er, what, Dean's plea hearing? Yeah.
00:39Yeah, yeah, as long as you don't talk to him and we'll create a scene.
00:43You're going to go, aren't you? Er, no, I can't.
00:46I'm working on a big case at the minute, so...
00:49Bigger than someone you knew being murdered and left to rot in a shallow grave?
00:55Oh.
01:01Why do I never get anything I want?
01:03Oh, my heart bleeds for you. You've got six pairs of trainers already.
01:06Yeah, you can start your holiday job tomorrow, don't you?
01:08So you can save up, get yourself a new pair of trainers,
01:10and you'll appreciate them more because you work for them. There you go.
01:13It's not about the trainers, is it?
01:15Tommy, you can still do your boxy mangy summer job.
01:17Yeah. Oi, oi, I can show you some moves, like bang, bang.
01:20No, I want to get laughed at. I really want to do this summer thing.
01:23Well, you can't. The same way I can't go swanning off to Malaga for the summer.
01:27Right, I've got to do the twins' pet lunches.
01:29Just enjoy your last day at school, please.
01:32See you later. See you later.
01:34Hey, Tommy, you know, I could do a bit of sparring with you,
01:37cos back in the day, you know, you know...
01:39I could have been a contender, you know.
01:41Whatever that den's all.
01:42I can't get it, but, you know, you've got to put the work in, all right?
01:45Listen to me, you're not going anywhere near steroids, all right?
01:48You've got to give yourself some achievable goals.
01:51Yeah? I reckon, er, I reckon you could do it.
01:54Cos I believe in you, eh?
02:00PHONE RINGS
02:05It's Colwell.
02:07Is everything OK with Debbie?
02:10Oh, I see, yes. Look, yeah, I just need a little more time.
02:14I did pay you 7,500 of it the week before last.
02:20No, no, no, no, no. I'll sort it. Thank you.
02:30PHONE RINGS
02:45Yeah, let me help.
02:46No, no, no, I'm all right.
02:51Oh!
02:52You know, when your dad was alive, I used to leave all this to him.
02:55But I like doing it. It keeps me busy.
02:57Mum.
03:00It's going to be OK.
03:02Today is just a plea hearing.
03:04It's just another step on the ladder to being rid of Dean Wicks forever.
03:08OK? And moving on from what happened to Keanu.
03:11He's not going to have the chance to say anything, all right?
03:14Other than guilty or not guilty.
03:16And I'll report back as soon as it is dealt with, OK?
03:20It's just another day, Mum.
03:22It's just another day, Mum.
03:24OK, so just try not to let it knock you off balance.
03:27I won't.
03:29Yeah, OK.
03:3820 years! Bleed now!
03:41Talk about time flying, eh?
03:43What's this?
03:4520 years ago, Patrick made an honest woman of me.
03:49I wish I could say I made an honest man of him.
03:51But that man can spend a year and longer than Tower Bridge.
03:56Well, can I say how lovely it is to see you back where you belong?
03:59Yeah.
04:00Right, as you know that Tommy's starting work here tomorrow for the summer.
04:03He's going to try to get away with doing as little as possible.
04:06But I want you to work him into the ground, all right?
04:08I'm not having any more kids growing up thinking things just land in their laps.
04:11Gotcha.
04:12And he better watch his mouth.
04:13Yeah, well, I've spoke to him about that and he will be apologising now.
04:16And he's not to have his friends popping in here like it's a yacht club.
04:19Yeah, if he does, you've got my permission to kick him out.
04:22I know Tommy can be cheeky, but he is honest and he's reliable.
04:27Here, cat.
04:28So, the school have just phoned and Tommy's a no-show.
04:33Right.
04:37Hold on. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
04:39You tracked my phone?
04:40Yeah. Yeah, of course I do.
04:44Tracked my phone.
04:49Push.
04:52Hey, should you be at school?
04:55You going to go ask something to Mum?
04:58You seen that summer training course we were on, eh?
05:01Yeah. Mum's making me work a juicy cab of this.
05:05Hey, straight with it, then. Straight, straight.
05:08That's it, that's better.
05:10Well, it's good to see you haven't given up to the first set, mate.
05:13You going to tell me everyone fails on their first go?
05:15No.
05:16But failure, it makes you push yourself harder, doesn't it?
05:19And if you want to be the best, it's yourself you've got to be.
05:25That's it.
05:28Straight, straight.
05:30Yeah, that's better. Yeah.
05:37Hey, girl.
05:38Ta.
05:40Sonia?
05:42I'm sorry.
05:45Are you all right?
05:46Yeah.
05:47Well, no, not really.
05:50Oh, that's silly, really.
05:53Come on, we're mates, aren't we?
05:57I haven't done a pregnancy test yet.
06:00I mean, it's only been a couple of weeks since the IVF, but, well...
06:04Of course you want to find out. Are you excited?
06:07I'm terrified.
06:09Cava, I didn't tell you, but, um...
06:12Well, I was pregnant last time, and...
06:15Oh, Sonia, I'm so sorry.
06:18Yeah.
06:20I had a, um...
06:22I had a blighted ovum.
06:25Is that when it doesn't attach properly?
06:28Mm.
06:30Sorry.
06:32I just can't go through all that again, Cava.
06:35But, you know, what if it's negative?
06:39I've got a drawer full of tests at home.
06:41I can't bring myself to do them.
06:45Well, what would Sonia, the nurse, say?
06:50The evil way, it's best to know.
06:53There you go.
06:56It's just this whole process, you know.
07:00It's just dragging me down. It's so draining.
07:04You know, Rhys tiptoes around me.
07:07Every time I see him, I feel guilty.
07:09Because all of his dreams, or our dreams,
07:12they're resting on me.
07:13Look, when it comes down to it, IVF is a numbers game.
07:19And...
07:21Look, I'm going out on a limb here.
07:24But I'm gonna say, it's third time lucky.
07:27That's what Rhys says.
07:30Do you know, it's times like this, I wish Whitney was here.
07:32She would have done it with me, you know, a bit of moral support.
07:35Well, I'm free later if you want company.
07:38Really?
07:40Thank you.
07:41Thank you.
07:43What's so urgent?
07:45I, um...
07:47Well, the thing is...
07:48What is it? Is it Sonia?
07:50No, no, no.
07:52Corporation tax.
07:53You have some outstanding back payments.
07:56Is that it? You had me worried.
07:58I spotted it in the other...
08:00Look, I didn't want to bother you until I'd looked into it.
08:03Well, you're dealing with it, yeah?
08:05Yeah, but, um...
08:07You do still owe the money.
08:10How much?
08:12Well, 13,500.
08:14Give or take.
08:15Why didn't they let me know sooner?
08:18They sent you a letter.
08:20It was in your paperwork.
08:22They sent it in early January when you were in Australia.
08:24You must have missed it.
08:26And then, all the Keanu stuff.
08:28You just overlooked it.
08:31Right.
08:33Yeah.
08:37Um...
08:39Peter, sorry.
08:41No.
08:42I'm sorry.
08:44You know, Dean's in court today.
08:47I go a few days without thinking about Keanu and then...
08:53He liked you.
08:56And it's because of him and how much he valued you
08:59that I trusted you with the accounts.
09:04You know, I'm going to have to move some cash around.
09:06I don't keep that much in my business account.
09:10Well, Rhys, I really don't need this, you know,
09:12but I suppose that...
09:14at the end of the day, it's only monies.
09:16Yeah, you know, maybe...
09:18Maybe I could get a second opinion or, you know,
09:21or find a loophole or something.
09:23Yeah.
09:25Well, that'd be fantastic.
09:28Bang, bang!
09:29Yeah, left and right.
09:30Bang, bang!
09:31Yeah, good.
09:32Move that foot, move that foot.
09:33Left one.
09:34Bang, bang!
09:35And again, and again.
09:36Bang, bang!
09:37And again, and again.
09:38And one more.
09:39Yeah, good work.
09:40Here you are, old man, is it?
09:42How did you know I was here?
09:44Well, we all know your mum's a witch, you know,
09:46and the Slaters were gathered round the cauldron.
09:49School phone.
09:50Of course I did.
09:52You get bored round up there.
09:55Don't do that, Phil.
09:56How's he going to learn if you encourage him?
09:58I haven't learned anything the last day of school today.
10:00See, Phil gets it.
10:01It's not up to Phil, so come on, get your stuff together.
10:03I ain't going now, what's the point?
10:05Let him stay.
10:06He's having a good session.
10:07You can stay and all, you might learn something, can't you?
10:09Oh, right.
10:10You're so interested in boxing, what?
10:12I reckon he was a no-show when he had his fight.
10:14Yeah, well, I'm here now and I'm doing what I can to help him.
10:17And I'm teaching him more than something.
10:18The mob out of me teacher's going to teach him,
10:20so come on, just give the kid a break.
10:23Right, Tommy, if you're so keen to skip school,
10:25your mum said you can start at the cab office with her today
10:28and kick off by apologising to Yolanda.
10:30Yeah, no way.
10:31Listen, you talk back to her so you'll say sorry.
10:33Tommy.
10:34Tommy.
10:36You shouldn't give Yolanda's lip.
10:40Right, gloves off, let's go.
10:51So you sure you don't want to come with me?
10:53Why would I?
10:55Johnny says it's only going to take a few minutes, so...
10:59Were you sure you saw Dean dragging Keanu into the cab?
11:03Yeah, of course.
11:05Why are you asking?
11:06Just want to make sure that Dean doesn't get off.
11:08You're the key witness, aren't you?
11:11Yeah.
11:12But I've got to go.
11:13Keanu deserves justice, you know.
11:15That is, killer deserves to rot in prison forever.
11:24Dean?
11:32Dean?
12:03SIGHS
12:14Thank you for the apology.
12:16I am prepared to turn the other cheek
12:18and start afresh if you are.
12:20Yeah?
12:21Right.
12:22Well, help me with this heavy load.
12:24You're back younger than mine.
12:26Come.
12:32I always remember my first job.
12:34Oh, yeah? What, getting shoved up chimneys to clean them?
12:39Domestic in a hotel.
12:42I used to clean those rooms, pick and span.
12:45So you went from cleaning rooms to cleaning clothes?
12:49I did rise on the corporate ladder in retail.
12:52Oh, yeah?
12:53When I'm 16, I'm going to start my own business.
12:56When I turn 30, I'll be a millionaire.
12:58Before you know it, when I'm 40, I'll retire.
13:02PHONE RINGS
13:04Oh, yeah. I was thinking about you earlier.
13:07Er, well, I haven't got much on me right now. How much do you need?
13:11Er...
13:12Would...
13:1480 do?
13:16Yeah.
13:17All right, I'll see you in half an hour.
13:19Yeah, usual place.
13:21All right, bye.
13:25It's probably too soon to find out, you know.
13:27I should have waited a week or so.
13:29If it's negative, I'll do another one next week.
13:32And then the week after.
13:36You know, maybe it is better not knowing at all.
13:40You know, it being a complete surprise, like it was with Bex.
13:43Oh, don't.
13:45Look, I know you'll think I'm being stupid...
13:47Oh, there's no change there, then.
13:50But if something goes wrong this time,
13:53do you think it's my punishment for putting Bex up for adoption?
13:57Oh, don't be so silly.
13:59Sonia, you were just a child.
14:01Same as me when I'd done her.
14:04Listen, you fought to get Bex back.
14:06You gave her everything.
14:09Yeah, no, you're right. I'm just being silly.
14:12You had your bad luck last time, all right? You just remember that.
14:16And if this test is positive,
14:18then you have to enjoy every second of being pregnant.
14:21Do you hear me?
14:22Right.
14:24Right.
14:27Right.
14:50Hi, Debbie. It's me.
14:54I brought you some new flowers.
14:58I wanted to get you tulips.
15:01I know how much you love them.
15:04Well, I suppose spring's over.
15:07Another spring come and gone.
15:16It used to be you'd see tulips everywhere.
15:19And daffodils.
15:22When all at once I saw a crowd,
15:24a host of golden daffodils.
15:27It's words worth.
15:30Well, there's no news on the latest IVF.
15:33Sonia will probably do a test in the next few days.
15:39Debbie, I'm... I'm in such a mess.
15:44The money I got from selling our house to pay for your care,
15:48it's gone.
15:50It's gone.
15:53How many weirs for this place? Thousands?
15:56I don't have it.
15:59And they say they've waited long enough.
16:02If I don't pay, they're going to move you to a council-run home.
16:08I'm so, so sorry.
16:13I've let you down.
16:16I've let Sonia down.
16:20You know, I can't tell her about any of this,
16:22but, you know, she's wound up with the last IVF.
16:26I'm a terrible husband.
16:29I'm a terrible boyfriend.
16:31Even worse bookkeeper.
16:38I was going to scam a client into giving me money.
16:43I've already done it once and she didn't notice.
16:47I don't know what I've become, but I hate it.
16:52I can't look Sonia in the eye any more.
16:54I can't sleep, I barely eat.
17:01Talking to you helps.
17:07But I suppose it's not you I should be telling all this to.
17:10But I suppose it's not you I should be telling all this to.
17:40Tommy!
17:42Buy a mash. The lunch of champions.
17:45You've been holding a fort, OK?
17:47You're cheating on Annie Jean, aren't you?
17:49I saw you with that woman giving her money you nicked from here.
17:52I thought it was all right. I trusted you.
17:55She's the one you made me track down on socials, isn't it?
17:57It's not like that. It's nothing, OK?
17:59Please, Tommy, don't go shooting your mouth off.
18:01You make me feel sick. Some bint comes onto you...
18:03Hey, don't use words like that.
18:05No, just sit down and shut up.
18:07Go on!
18:11Now, first off...
18:14..well done for looking out for your nan.
18:16Second, I would never cheat on her.
18:18And third, I've been to the bank, I've got the cash
18:20and I'm putting it back in the box.
18:22Now, are you going to sit and hear me out
18:25or do you want to stomp off like some struppy kid?
18:33I'm in the kitchen.
18:41Have you been?
18:43I tried to call you but it just went straight to voicemail.
18:46Oh, I went to see Debbie.
18:48Is everything OK?
18:50Oh, yeah, yeah.
18:52Look, there's something...
18:57Sorry, I should have waited for you to do it, but...
19:05Everything's going to be all right.
19:08Everything's going to be all right.
19:10Everything.
19:12I promise.
19:14He's going to have a baby.
19:21If you promised Nanny Jean not to give that madwoman money,
19:25she still went behind her back.
19:28I don't know who you're right, but...
19:32..my life can be complicated sometimes, Tony.
19:35You know, I love your Nan very much
19:37and I would never want to upset her
19:39and I'd never want to go behind her back,
19:41but at the same time, it's also very important to me
19:44that I do the right thing by Maya and her husband.
19:47But you're not the one who blinded him.
19:50Well, you don't stop being a dad when your kids leave home
19:53or if they end up in prison.
19:55You know, once a dad, always a dad.
19:57Well, Dad says it's OK to lie if you've got the right intentions.
20:01I'm good at lying. Easier than telling the truth sometimes.
20:04Well, I wouldn't make a habit of that, Tony.
20:07Lying can get you in a lot of bother.
20:09Look at me, right?
20:12So, er...
20:14you OK now?
20:16I suppose.
20:21Harvey...
20:24..say if you did cheat,
20:26do you reckon Nanny Jean would forgive you?
20:28I would never cheat. Never.
20:30That woman is one in a million.
20:32But say if you did.
20:35Why are you asking?
20:40I wish Mum would have forgiven Phil.
20:44Well, we did hurt her a lot.
20:46Yeah, but he said, sorry.
20:48Promised not to do it again.
20:50She's the one always telling me if I fess up to something
20:53and I really mean it, then it will be dealt with.
20:58Well, all I do know is...
21:01..if I did cheat on Jean,
21:03I would move heaven enough to try and get her to forgive me
21:06and I wouldn't rest until I got her back.
21:12I don't want to tell anyone for a few weeks.
21:14Oh, Kathy knows, though, cos I needed the moral support.
21:18I should have been here to give it to you.
21:20No, it's OK. Kathy swore she won't tell anyone.
21:23What was it you wanted to tell me earlier?
21:27No, it's nothing important.
21:30It's a 25th of an inch long, you know.
21:32All being well, I'm going to have a proper pregnancy.
21:35And I want to savour every second of it, Rhys.
21:38The swollen ankles, cramps, the sickness.
21:42I don't want to get ahead of myself,
21:44but you know we said about the back bedroom being best for the nursery?
21:47I think it's the middle one.
21:49Cos then it'll be closer to us, won't it?
21:51And as Whitney would say, you know, we've got to bling it all out.
21:54Car, changing table, but only once we're past the 12th floor.
21:58Past the 12-week stage.
22:00Well, you'll have plenty of time. Yeah.
22:02It's all part of the fun, isn't it? The nesting.
22:05Like you say, we don't want to get too ahead of ourselves.
22:08We had a positive result before, and look what happened.
22:13I'm just saying, statistically,
22:15a blighted ovum is responsible for 50% of first trimester miscarriage, isn't it?
22:20It could happen again.
22:24Why'd you do that?
22:26What?
22:27Pour cold water over everything.
22:30I was absolutely terrified about all of that this morning.
22:33But Kathy, she helped me shut out all the doubts and the worries
22:37and make me focus on the positive.
22:39The most wonderful thing that can happen to anyone.
22:42And you go and shove me back off a cliff again?
22:44I was just thinking about the money.
22:46Yeah, money, money, money. It's all you ever think about.
22:49Why can't you just be happy for once?
22:56Yeah.
23:20Linda?
23:23I, um, I went to the court.
23:25I really don't want to know about it.
23:27He was all dressed up. No suit, tied, a lot of...
23:31He looked at me like...
23:33Like I haven't had to walk over my dead brother in the car for months.
23:39And then he pleaded not guilty.
23:41Of course he did!
23:43Well, what did you expect?
23:45He's never guilty of anything, is he?
23:47Maybe me killing Keanu.
23:52Linda!
23:55Linda!
24:25Linda!
24:36Sonia?
24:48Sonia, I'm sorry.
24:51Look, the last thing I wanted to do was burst your bubble.
24:55We have no money.
24:57I know.
24:58No, you don't.
25:00I told you I owed the care home.
25:03A few weeks' fees.
25:06Well, really, it's three months.
25:08And the sale of the shares only covered half a bit.
25:11Well, now they're threatening to move Debbie out.
25:14Unless I come up with, um...
25:17Well, 13,500.
25:20And I know I should have told you,
25:22but I didn't want to worry you.
25:24I've been trying to find a way out of this hole.
25:28I know I failed you.
25:30You've lied to me. Again.
25:33I'm sorry. I'm going to swear before...
25:35Please, please, it's just words.
25:38You're lying to yourself as well as me.
25:41We're in more debt now than we'll ever be able to clear.
25:45Oh, you all right?
25:47Yeah.
25:48Looks like I'm having a birthday pie.
25:50Yeah, Chai and Honey have done all the arranging.
25:52I'm going to have a nap.
25:55Look, Phil, she don't want you to...
25:57Who don't?
25:58Lexi.
26:00After everything that's happened,
26:02I don't think she wants you to go.
26:04I don't want you to go.
26:06I don't want you to go.
26:08I don't want you to go.
26:10I don't want you to go.
26:12I don't want you to go.
26:13After everything that happened at the meal with Chai getting here,
26:16she's just really upset about it.
26:18Sorry.
26:22Phil?
26:23Not now, Tommy, all right? I'm busy.
26:25Do you want Mum back?
26:28I want us all to be a family again,
26:30and you can make anything happen,
26:32so if you want us all back,
26:34you'll make it happen.
26:37Johnny says the court case is September.
26:40Couldn't come soon enough, as far as I'm concerned.
26:43I just can't wait for Dean to be locked up,
26:45and we can all move on with our lives.
26:47Yeah, well, I know Shirley's my mate,
26:50but I'm telling you, Dean Wick's come out of the womb guilty.
26:53True.
26:54I hate all this.
26:55I know.
26:56Listen, if you fancy a drink later,
26:59give me a bell, yeah?
27:01Right.
27:02Oh, you've got visitors. I can come back.
27:04No, I'm just leaving.
27:05Have you been home yet to see Sonia?
27:10Have you seen Sonia?
27:12Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no, thank you.
27:14Right, well, I'll see you around.
27:17Bye, Sharon.
27:18OK.
27:20What was that about?
27:22I don't know.
27:24I just thought I'd give you a call.
27:26Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:28Yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:30I don't know.
27:32It's bad news, I'm afraid, about the tax.
27:36No loophole.
27:37No, sorry.
27:38So I'm going to need you to transfer the funds
27:41into the business account, and I'll take care of the rest.
27:45So it's 13,500.
27:48Right.
28:00OK.
28:30OK.
