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