00:00So that, I read, right?
00:29That, uh, bonding with your sibling is actually really good for your health.
00:34Right.
00:36You know how Devinder's just been so down recently with his dialysis?
00:40I was just thinking that if we went into town, did some shopping,
00:44it would probably cheer him up.
00:46You know, if only I had some money.
00:49Well, town's too busy and we don't want him getting tired in the crowds, do we?
00:52I'm fine.
00:54I got something for you.
00:57Um, what's this for?
00:59Uh, just some detective work.
01:03Please, Dad, can we go into town?
01:06Fine.
01:07Do not go flashing us about and take it easy, yeah?
01:11Don't worry, Daddy.
01:12I'll look after him.
01:13Don't mean looking after now, do I?
01:18That's what the divinely PI do for you.
01:21Helping me look after someone I need to make amends with.
01:25One of many.
01:26When your days are numbered, you start thinking about the past.
01:30And I want to make things right.
01:33I'm proud of you, Dad.
01:34Life is so much better without pants.
01:58Yeah, I mean, they do say a little bit of air circulating is good for you.
02:02I meant Prius.
02:03We don't have to put up with her nipples draped all over the bathroom anymore.
02:06Yeah, I mean, it is tidy without her.
02:09Yeah, quieter.
02:10I'm all about the quiet life these days.
02:12Is that what happens when you're middle-aged?
02:15You're in a good mood.
02:17Yeah, well, Dad says he's got big plans for me.
02:20Yeah, let's just, um, talk about that over lunch, shall we?
02:24Sounds good.
02:25This thing with Nisha's too risky.
02:28Last week it was a close call.
02:30If he finds out what you're up to-
02:32Well, you don't know if he heard, right?
02:35But all we can do is stick to the plan.
02:36What if you did?
02:37And while you think you're playing him, he's actually playing you.
02:39Look, trust me, I won't let anything happen to any one of us.
02:44I promise you.
02:48Two flat whites, please, Bern.
02:51Bernie.
02:53Sorry.
02:54Have you seen this?
02:59Can't come quick enough.
03:01Well, it'll soon be over.
03:03We'll just, um, grab a table, Ben.
03:08I can't get away from it.
03:12You just need to focus on yourself and staying sober.
03:16What is it Gran always says?
03:17Just being that smart, aren't you?
03:21Can I get you anything else?
03:22No, I've got everything I need.
03:27Mum!
03:28Hello, love.
03:29You look nice.
03:30Oh, thanks.
03:31That's wasted on serving pie and mash.
03:33I'm just stuck in there while Ian's away.
03:35He'll be back from the States soon.
03:37I would come and keep you company,
03:38but me and Gina are going into town with Dad.
03:40Oh, well, don't worry, love.
03:41There's always a way to brighten up the day.
03:44Right.
03:46And there was I thinking this day was going to be really boring.
03:50The cat's away, so I thought maybe we could, um-
03:52I wish, but I've mucked my eyeballs on spreadsheets and back-to-back meetings.
03:57Oh, you certainly know how to get a girl in the mood.
04:00Look, I'd love the distraction.
04:01Honestly, I've got a lot to do with the business.
04:04I want to make the most of Dad's investment.
04:05Mum, what about later?
04:08I've got too much on.
04:10I'm sorry.
04:27Oi!
04:31Keeps the doctor away, didn't it?
04:33Free fruit off my stall, free roof over your head.
04:37Oi, you're getting sick of me already.
04:38I know, I know things are tough.
04:40I do, but any idea roughly when you might be moving out?
04:46Look, I get that you're doing me a massive favour,
04:48and I want to move.
04:49I do.
04:51But right now I need to get a job so I can save for a deposit.
04:54You wouldn't want to see me out on the street, would you?
04:56No, of course not.
04:58But you are definitely getting a job.
05:00Babe, it is my number one priority.
05:05Wow, so good.
05:10Thinking spending some time with Vinnie today?
05:14I think he said he was busy, you know.
05:17Come down to the restaurant,
05:18spend some time with my eldest son instead?
05:21Well, the restaurant's pretty booked up, so I'll be busy.
05:25How much fun for you?
05:27What's the real reason you don't want me there?
05:33Sookie's made a reservation for her and Vinnie.
05:36Dad, you don't need to stress the scene.
05:39We live across the square from each other.
05:42Can't avoid her all the time.
05:45Vinnie's got to be right to spend some time with his mother.
05:49Yeah, they should have their lunch in peace.
05:56Oh, hi.
06:19You want to take a break, darling?
06:21I can manage.
06:22Thanks.
06:26What can I get you, darling?
06:53Bit thirsty?
06:55What?
06:56You can't come up here.
06:58Who are you?
06:59Where are my manners?
07:01I'm Fraser.
07:03I'm an associate of Dean Wick's.
07:08Get out.
07:09I'm not meaning you any harm.
07:11I've just got a message for you.
07:13I'll keep this simple.
07:15Dean's offering you a deal.
07:17You retract your false witness statement
07:20from the night that poor young guy was murdered,
07:22and he'll confess to what he did to you.
07:26I'm sorry.
07:32So these big plans your dad's got for you,
07:35think you've any clues now?
07:36Maybe he's trying to sell something off to give me the cash.
07:39Right, well, you need to push him a bit more.
07:41See if he'll tell you.
07:43Can't have him dragging his feet too much.
07:45Who knows how long he's got?
07:46Yeah.
07:51Don't mind me.
07:56Mother and son time is important.
08:08You don't just get to walk into my home
08:09and offer me some stupid deal.
08:12I mean, why would I retract my statement
08:13when I did see Dean on the night of Kiana's murder?
08:16Dean says he wasn't there.
08:17Oh, and you believe him?
08:20Do you even know what kind of man you're doing business with?
08:22What he did to me?
08:24Your associate is a rapist.
08:25I'm just the messenger.
08:27You retract your statement,
08:29he'll confess to what he did to you.
08:31I don't care how many times you say it, I don't believe you.
08:33Well, I'm sorry for pointing out the obvious, darling,
08:37but I'm not sure you're saying no to the deal with a clear head.
08:42Just like I'm not sure you're fit to testify.
08:44Get out.
08:46I'd be all over the place too,
08:48knowing that I was going to tell a huge,
08:50great lie to a courtroom full of people.
08:54I'd be tanning down the boots and all.
08:55Look, I know what you're trying to do.
08:56You can't handle little old me coming for a wee chat.
08:59How are you going to handle a witness?
09:01It's not a lie.
09:02Right, Dean's a murderer and he's going down for a long time.
09:06What is going on?
09:08Who are you?
09:10I'm nobody.
09:11Yeah, I can see that.
09:12I was just leaving.
09:13Get out.
09:16Think about it, eh?
09:17I swear by almighty God that my evidence will be the truth.
09:22The whole truth and nothing but the truth.
09:26Ravi, this place keeps you really busy, doesn't it?
09:31Of course, it's going to take up a lot of your time.
09:34If that's what my dad wants, then I'll make a go of it.
09:38The minute he realises how much work it is,
09:40he'll be begging you to take it off him.
09:42Your dad is not going to get his own way.
09:52Nish.
09:55Thank you for coming.
09:59I'm not going to let you get away with this.
10:00I'm not going to let you get away with this.
10:02I'm not going to let you get away with this.
10:04I'm not going to let you get away with this.
10:07I'm sorry for the last minute change of location.
10:11It was out with dad.
10:15I know I don't deserve your time.
10:17I wasn't sure if I should come.
10:20I wanted to look you in the eye for so long.
10:23To understand why you took my husband's life.
10:29Ayesha?
10:33It's okay.
10:37It's okay.
10:44I thought you had back-to-back meetings.
10:46I do, online.
10:48Well, take a break.
10:50Ten minutes can do the world of good.
10:55I've got to tell you this.
10:56I'm sorry.
10:58Junior night.
11:01Girls back yet?
11:02Not yet.
11:03Oh, I'll tell them I popped in.
11:05Jelly Deals aren't always the best company.
11:07You're right.
11:10I hate to see a lady disappointed.
11:12Not that I ever have.
11:14I'll take your word for it, then.
11:16I'm Harry Mitchell.
11:17And you are?
11:18Cindy Bill.
11:20Married to Ian Bill.
11:22Lucky Ian.
11:23But I don't see him around here, so...
11:25Harry.
11:26You could stay for a drink.
11:28I've got pairs of shoes older than you, love.
11:31Come on.
11:32I've got to be better company than Jelly Deals, right?
11:35Yeah.
11:38All right, then.
11:40What can I get you?
11:42Oh, a glass of white wine, please.
11:46All right, Billy?
11:47Right, Cindy.
11:48It's Teddy.
11:49Hello, Teddy.
11:51I've made out with Vinnie and Ravi.
11:54And now I want to make amends with Aisha.
11:56Oh, right.
11:56So all of a sudden, you've become someone who does the right thing.
11:59She's the one I've wronged the most.
12:02At least she deserves an apology.
12:05And I'm sure you want some answers.
12:08You're playing games.
12:09I don't know what's going on here.
12:12Maybe I shouldn't have come.
12:13Please, stay.
12:17I don't even know if what you said in your message is true.
12:21Oh, I wish it wasn't.
12:24I really am dying.
12:25You took the life of an innocent man.
12:28And you want me to help you go to your grave with a clear conscience?
12:32And you?
12:34You were in on this.
12:36Getting me here to make himself feel better.
12:39I expected more from you.
12:40No, I swear.
12:41I didn't know.
12:42She had nothing to do with it.
12:45You're both sick.
12:50Mum.
12:51Let it go, Vinnie.
12:55Let them have their moment.
12:58Aisha.
12:59Aisha.
13:00Aisha, stop, please.
13:02Please, just leave me alone.
13:03Look, I had no idea that Nisha got in touch with you.
13:07I'm not going to be a pawn in whatever game you and Nisha play.
13:10Nisha and I are divorced.
13:13Look, can we talk?
13:15Please?
13:18I wish we could shout it from the rooftops, you know?
13:21Celebrate properly.
13:22I don't think we should just yet.
13:23I'm out of respect for Debbie.
13:25Oh, of course.
13:27You should hear back about the post-mortem suit.
13:30It's taken ages.
13:31Yeah, well, it's a process, isn't it?
13:33These things take time.
13:35But Debbie slipped away.
13:36It's an open and shut case.
13:38And you and me volunteering to give our DNA samples to the police,
13:42well, that'll help speed things up, won't it?
13:44No, I just want it over so I can move on.
13:48We're engaged.
13:49You're pregnant.
13:50We've got everything we wanted.
13:52I wish you could wear it.
13:54Well, it won't take the journalists long to resize it,
13:56and soon it'll be right here, sparkling away.
13:59I've got to go.
14:01See you later.
14:09That's a beauty.
14:13My grandma's engagement ring was just like that.
14:15This was my grandmother's engagement ring.
14:17And then it was Debbie's.
14:19But now it's Sonia's.
14:21Oh, you got engaged?
14:24Oh, mate, that's great news.
14:25Congratulations.
14:27But we're keeping it quiet out of respect for Debbie.
14:31I didn't think Sonia would want it, you know,
14:32being that it was Debbie's.
14:34But she knows how much it means to me.
14:37I can't wait to get married.
14:39Even though everyone's gossiping about us.
14:42You and Sonia have been through a lot together.
14:46So take it from me, honestly.
14:48Don't waste one more minute on whatever anyone else thinks.
14:53You deserve to be happy.
14:56Yeah.
15:01When Nish was released, he wanted to come back into the family.
15:13Back to me.
15:15But it was never going to work.
15:19I, um...
15:22I'm a different person to who I was when he went in.
15:28He hasn't changed, though.
15:31Still the same controlling, manipulative, lying, selfish little man he always was.
15:37So I wish I could tell you that he's apologising to make you feel better.
15:43But he's just doing it to get rid of his own guilt.
15:48I couldn't believe it when I got his text.
15:50But I thought I owe it to myself and to Hardeep to face him.
15:58I don't live in London.
15:59I haven't since after Hardeep's death.
16:02I needed a fresh start.
16:04But I was here for a long weekend visiting family.
16:08And I thought, I can't get on that train home without hearing what Nish has to say.
16:19I'm sorry.
16:22It wasn't your fault.
16:29Yeah, Junior, I'd really appreciate if you could resize it quickly.
16:33My fiancée can't wait to wear it.
16:36That's wonderful, thank you.
16:38Oh, thanks, bye-bye.
16:39You trying to avoid me or something?
16:40Oh, no, no, I'm just in a hurry.
16:42Yeah, so am I, to get a return on my investment?
16:44Well, everything that's proceeding is discussed.
16:48These type of investments, I will get you your first return very soon.
16:51When?
16:52Because my patience has done a runner.
16:54Have some cash within 24 hours.
16:56I'll make sure I do.
16:58Because next time, I won't ask nicely.
17:05We were so close, me and you, weren't we?
17:09Any little bit of news I had, and I don't want to run and tell you first.
17:14You were like the best friend I'd ever had.
17:19More than a friend.
17:20You mean...
17:22Nish.
17:28He was suspicious of all the time I was spending at your house.
17:34He thought I was having an affair with Hrithik.
17:41But it was you, who I had feelings for.
17:45And I was petrified of my feelings, that I didn't understand them.
17:50So I said nothing.
17:54I knew what Nish thought.
17:58And I never corrected him.
18:03How?
18:05How?
18:07How could you let that happen?
18:09I didn't.
18:09I didn't.
18:10I didn't.
18:10I didn't.
18:11I didn't.
18:12I didn't.
18:12I didn't.
18:13I didn't.
18:13I didn't.
18:14I didn't.
18:15If I had thought one second that Nish would kill Hrithik, I...
18:22Nish was the one that took his life.
18:26But I'll always blame myself, and I always have done.
18:33If I had been brave enough to be honest with Nish about how I was feeling,
18:42Hrithik would still be alive.
18:45And I'm not asking for your forgiveness, because I know I don't deserve it.
18:52But seeing you after all these years, I couldn't not tell you the truth.
19:02A good man died because of me.
19:08And I'm sorry, Ayesha.
19:10I am really, really sorry.
19:14This is witness intimidation.
19:16We should call the police.
19:17No, that's the last thing we need.
19:18It could delay the trial.
19:20And Mum has suffered long enough.
19:22What if he comes back, and you're in danger, and the kids?
19:25I don't think he's coming back, and I don't want to call the police.
19:29But I need this trial to be over, Mum.
19:31I want to get on with my life, please.
19:34Look, you go back to the bar, and I'll be down in a bit.
19:44I know how difficult it is for women from our background to face up to their sexuality.
19:52I've seen some of these women trapped in abusive relationships with men.
20:00The only person responsible for Hardeep's death is Nish.
20:05And as for facing up to your feelings, I know first-hand it's easier said than done.
20:22Did you really think I ran out of tea and sugar that often?
20:30I knew I was gay.
20:32I've known since I was a kid, but you know how it goes.
20:37Family, community, culture.
20:41It's different for some of us now, but back then...
20:48I wish I'd known.
20:52When Hardeep died, I felt how fragile life was.
20:57And I became obsessed with not wasting another minute.
21:00So I came out to my friends, my family, to everyone at my couloir in Manchester, to myself.
21:10Are you happy being yourself?
21:16It wasn't easy to start, but yes.
21:22Yes, I am.
21:24My life is very different now.
21:27I even run a group for LGBTQI plus six.
21:33That's brilliant!
21:39And I am so glad that you're happy.
21:43Don't let anyone ruin that.
21:46And what Nish has done.
21:49Getting you here is just the last attempts of a dying man to try and make himself feel better.
21:57He won't be getting any sympathy from me.
22:01And I'm not afraid of him.
22:19Okay, so first you're too busy to talk to me in the bit,
22:24and now you're stalking me, that's not nice.
22:26Oh, one of my mates has got a cat on.
22:28No, you saw some young bloke chat me off the bar, and you got jealous.
22:32Jealous?
22:34It's a matter of keeping my schedule, that's all.
22:38Well, we could be back any minute.
22:40Oh, no, it'd be terrible.
22:43We could go back to yours.
22:44What, or if someone from the square's seen us together?
22:48And what about your very important work?
22:51Like you said, in ten minutes we'll do the world again.
22:56It's...
23:09Well, I'm so glad you've come back.
23:13Please believe me, all I wanted was to see you and tell you to your face how sorry I am.
23:19I owe you that much.
23:20You're pathetic.
23:22I know the truth, Nish.
23:24Sookie told me the reason you killed Hardeep,
23:26so if you brought me here to use that against Sookie,
23:32it hasn't worked.
23:34You're the only person responsible for what happened.
23:38You killed Hardeep.
23:40It was your fault, and your fault alone,
23:43and you can go to your grave knowing that you took the life of an innocent man.
23:49But in the eyes of the law, I've served my time.
23:51I've served my time.
23:54That was my repentance.
23:56Repentance?
23:56Dad, I know you don't like to talk about it, but I'm telling you, this is not the place.
24:01Here.
24:03I thought I'd remind you what a decent man looks like.
24:06This is what you took from the world.
24:10I hope when you're taking your final breath and closing your eyes,
24:16the last thing you see are Hardeep's final moments.
24:19His pain, his blood, his suffering.
24:25Because it was all by your hand.
24:36It was really nice to see you.
24:38Yeah, you too.
24:40Look, why don't you stay for a bit now that you're here?
24:46I'd love you to meet Eve.
24:50I can't let Fraser get to you.
24:56It is exactly what Dean wants.
24:58Yeah, but he was right, though.
25:00You know, I fell apart in front of him.
25:01How am I going to manage under cross-examination?
25:03We'll just take it one step at a time.
25:05Okay, we've got your pre-trial interview next week.
25:07Let's just focus on that for now.
25:10Look, even if you did retract your statement,
25:12we have no guarantee that Dean would keep his side of the deal.
25:16Mum, he treats you into recording that fake confession.
25:20Okay, you know you can't trust him.
25:23You're right, you're right.
25:25It don't matter how hard it's going to be.
25:27I am taking the stand.
25:30That's great.
25:31I know you can do it.
25:33Yeah.
25:34No.
25:45Oh.
26:06Eve, this is Aisha.
26:07Aisha, this is Eve.
26:09Hi.
26:10Um, Aisha was Hardeep's wife.
26:13Hardeep, as in...?
26:15Yeah, yeah.
26:17She called Aisha down here to get her forgiveness.
26:20But he's not getting a thing from me.
26:22Yeah, too right.
26:24Well, it's lovely to meet you.
26:26Oh, you too.
26:26Um, yeah, go get yourself a table and I'll get the drinks in.
26:29Um, what are you having?
26:30A glass of red.
26:32Oh, you remember.
26:34Yes, I remember cleaning it off your new rug.
26:38Hello, my darling.
26:39What can I get you?
26:40Hi, Elaine.
26:41Uh, one beer, uh, small brandy and a glass of red, please.
26:46Coming right up.
26:52It's lovely seeing how well they're getting on after all this time.
26:57You got in touch with Aisha for what?
26:59To ease your conscience?
27:02I've got no right to expect anything from Aisha.
27:05But if me reaching out has led to them reconnecting, then...
27:10Well, at least I've done something good.
27:14I mean, look at them.
27:15Yeah, and on like a house on fire.
27:18Yes, well, they are old friends, so...
27:22Old friends?
27:23Is that what Sookie said?
27:26Huh.
27:29Well, you know, technically, she's right.
27:32Oh, shut up.
27:33What are you on about?
27:35What, she didn't tell you?
27:36Well, imagine my surprise looking at Aisha online
27:41and seeing that since Hadid passed away,
27:45she's an out and proud gay Sikh woman.
27:50I guess you could say that she was Sookie's first love.
27:54So I think it's great that they've reconnected.
27:58I just hope it's not a problem for you.
28:00Long story, I really want so much to get in this spot.
28:04I don't know what you mean, you're funny.
28:05Yeah.
28:06Yes.
28:31So
28:55you
