00:00Oh, can I have a word, please?
00:06I overslept. I need to get to work. Can it wait?
00:08No, it can't.
00:09Happy birthday!
00:10For me?
00:11Well, unless there's another ever living upstairs who's got a big day today. Go on, open it.
00:15How did you know?
00:16Oh, you left this behind yesterday at the Hyde. Some of your cards fell out. Rona wasn't
00:22looking, but she couldn't not see your driving licence and it had your date of birth on the
00:27So we thought it might be nice to do something special.
00:32Thanks, but I don't do birthdays.
00:33Oh, you do now. Because Rona's give you a free pass and I can get cracking with a full
00:37pamper session. Luxury nails included.
00:39Oh, there's no need. You've done so much for me already.
00:44I've got your posh coffee and Mandy's breakfast bombs.
00:49Go on, then.
00:50Please, madame, take a seat and prepare to be pampered. Right, I just want a before and
00:56after.
00:57No photos. I don't want anything online.
00:58No, no, no, this is just for me and you. Then you can see the difference when I release
01:02your inner fabulousness.
01:03OK.
01:04One, two, three. Happy birthday!
01:05Have you seen Evan's blankie?
01:16Er, it's on the settee in the lounge. Do you need a lift to the hospital?
01:21Oh, no, it's fine, thanks. Billy's putting him in the car. It's his second round of chemo
01:27today. He's only just got over his first.
01:30I know. It's really tough.
01:32Yeah. I mean, I know we're doing the right thing, it's just seeing him so poorly, it
01:36breaks my heart.
01:39Doctors wouldn't put him through it unless they knew he was going to get better. So if
01:42they think that way, so should we.
01:46That's what Kim said when she messaged me.
01:49Messaged you?
01:50Yeah, this morning, on her way to a meeting, she was just like, keep going, and that she's
01:55thinking of us today.
01:56That's nice.
01:57Yeah. I just wish she was here. The kids miss her. I miss her. Look, if you speak to her,
02:10please tell her to come home.
02:11Sure.
02:12Anyway, I'll see you later. Oh, also, tell her I'm going to go to the police about Mum.
02:24The police? What?
02:25Yeah, look, I know what I've said about her being dead to me, but she's still my mother.
02:31She's not answering my calls or my messages. I've got to report her missing.
02:36Look, you just get Evan to the hospital. I'll take care of all that.
02:41Thanks, Dad. It's times like this we really need each other, right?
02:46Right.
02:54Hey, we've got a real problem now. Call me.
03:02Got the muscle on him.
03:04Yeah, look at the price. Prize winning bills don't come cheap.
03:08He said he wanted to improve the yard. Get a big one like him, he'd get loads of quality calves.
03:12I mean, he is a beauty, I'll give you that. And he'd be an investment. We could lend him
03:17to other farmers, sell his sperm.
03:20Sorry, what?
03:22We're thinking about buying another bull.
03:24Well, think again. You've already got one. I know it's getting on, but it does a decent
03:29enough job.
03:30He's slowing down. We buy another, then we're future-proofing the business.
03:36Bulls are strappy and expensive, the size of a small planet. You've got enough on your
03:39hands with one of them.
03:40Yeah, not if we know what you're doing.
03:41And we do. High-end stock means high-end prices. This guy might be just what we need.
03:47We've just taken on a new farmhand. We haven't got any spare cash floating about for new
03:51livestock.
03:52Yeah, well, sometimes you've got to factor in short-term pain for long-term gain.
03:55Right, and sometimes you've got to factor in living within your means.
04:00Well, thanks for your input, Cain. Appreciate it.
04:05No bull, all right?
04:10You look rough.
04:11Oh, morning, Jay. And how are you?
04:13Must be getting to you already. The stress of co-owning the hop for just a single day.
04:18No, I've been up half the night, actually. You know, trying and failing to work out where
04:22me and the kids are going to live, considering you're forcing us out of our home.
04:26Yeah, you were happy to do the same to me.
04:29You're just doing it out of spite. You've got a home, Jay. It's a big mansion over there.
04:34I told you, I used to. But I sold it to Priya, and now she's on about charging me rent.
04:38Yeah, and I don't believe you.
04:39Well, you better had do. Because the law is very clear. I'm skint, you've got assets.
04:45Now we're getting the divorce that you wanted. We divide everything equally.
04:49Oh, come off it, Jay. You've got money. We all know you've got money.
04:53There we have it. The reason that you married me. So what was your plan? I get a ring on
04:57your finger, then bin me off and grab half of everything I own?
05:00That's pretty much what you're doing to me. And for the record, I actually married you
05:05because I thought it was love. But you just, you just took advantage.
05:09I did?
05:10Yeah, I should have ended it, you know. The minute I found out that you faked my signature
05:15for that loan.
05:17But you didn't. So here we are.
05:22And by the way, I've asked the estate agent to come round and value the place so we can
05:25get it on the market.
05:27You can't sell something you don't own.
05:29Yet.
05:30This house is not for sale, okay? It never will be.
05:33Then I'll see you in court.
05:48We're happy with his bloods. Once we've got confirmation from the doctor, we can crack
05:52on with the chemo.
05:53Poor thing. He has no clue what's coming.
05:57Good job, eh?
05:59You okay?
06:01It's just last time we hadn't seen what the chemo could do to him.
06:04Now we know.
06:06And he'll take it in his stride. Just like he did the last lot.
06:11I'll just go and chase the doctor up. Then we'll have a brew, alright?
06:19It's been a different day.
06:21He's been a different baby the last few weeks, hasn't he?
06:25Smiling, laughing.
06:27When this is over, he's clear. He'll have his whole life ahead of him.
06:33It's gonna be okay. You know it is.
06:37You don't know that.
06:39None of us do.
06:42I'm just trying to be strong.
06:44Yeah, I know.
06:46It's okay, we've got this.
06:47It's a good thing we've got each other, right?
06:50Yeah.
06:59Oh, one minute!
07:04Happy birthday!
07:09Have you had a good day so far?
07:10Great, thanks. I've had the full treatment from Mandy.
07:13She said that you were paying.
07:14That's right.
07:16She said that you were paying.
07:17That's right. It's on us.
07:18I'm glad you enjoyed.
07:19There was no need.
07:20Well, we just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate all your hard work.
07:23Plus, you know, you've been a brilliant friend and a brilliant addition to the team.
07:29Hey, your nails look amazing.
07:30They look even better than they did on Mandy's post.
07:33Post?
07:34Oh, yeah. Well, she's put her before and after on the salon, so she was here. Have a look, look.
07:40Oh, God, no.
07:41I mean, you look a bit anxious in the one before, but after the glam squad, you look really relaxed and happy.
07:45I told her not to do that. I said no.
07:47Well, it's just a selfie. It's not going to cause any harm, is it?
07:49You don't have a clue.
07:51None of you do.
07:53I didn't ask for any of this.
08:02Oi!
08:09That photo, I told you not to post it.
08:11I didn't.
08:12Don't lie to me. I've just seen it all over the internet.
08:15I was chuffing Amelia, and I told her to keep it to herself.
08:18You told me that photo was just for us.
08:20Yeah, but she's obviously not read the bit where I said don't post it.
08:23You can't blame her. You look like a bag of spammers in the first one.
08:27You know, in the after. Hello, goddess.
08:30Please don't tell me that's for me.
08:33You pretend you've not seen it. It's supposed to be a surprise for the do-later.
08:37What do?
08:38I've just invited a few people for a drink, you know. Don't worry.
08:41Bob and his sparkly jacket are barred, so it's just a lucky thing.
08:44Then uninvite them.
08:46You've got to stop this madness right now.
08:48But everyone's really looking forward to it.
08:50I don't want a party. I don't want a cake.
08:53And I didn't want that photo all over the internet.
08:55Delete it right now.
08:57It's OK. I am on this. I'm going to message Amelia, right?
09:00Will you stop stressing, though?
09:02It's your birthday.
09:03Yeah, my big day.
09:05Happy birthday to me.
09:07Do you really think I've got anything to celebrate?
09:14Oh, OK.
09:37Ella.
09:39Go away.
09:41I will.
09:43Once I know you're all right.
09:47But you're not, are you?
09:49I'm fine.
09:53I, er, just saw you throwing cake and shouting at Mandy.
10:01I know today must always be very difficult for you.
10:06It's the anniversary of...
10:09Of the day I killed Joanne.
10:14Mandy was only trying to be nice.
10:17She's been such a good friend to me.
10:20I didn't want anyone to know it was my birthday.
10:24But they found out and they won't let it go.
10:27So it was all just, er...
10:30A little bit overwhelming, was it?
10:33I've had cake, cards, balloons, presents.
10:37It's the most anyone's ever done for me since Joanne's mum all those years ago.
10:42And I could have dealt with that.
10:45But then Mandy took these selfies.
10:47She promised me she wouldn't put them online,
10:49but then she sent them to Amelia, who couldn't help herself.
10:53Yeah, I saw them.
10:55On the salon socials.
10:57The second one of you is actually rather good.
11:01There is so much hate out there for me.
11:05People who think I don't deserve to even live.
11:07If the papers were to get hold of a picture of me looking happy...
11:11As much as I admire and respect Mandy,
11:14I don't think her social media has quite the outreach you suspect it has.
11:19How can anyone think I've got anything to celebrate today?
11:28You made a mistake, a long time ago,
11:31and you have paid the price for it.
11:33And I'm very sorry my recent behaviour hasn't reflected that.
11:38You have every right to live your life,
11:42no matter what anyone else thinks.
11:45And last time I checked,
11:47it wasn't a crime to have your nails done or eat cake.
11:51I just feel so wrong.
11:54And I do understand why you'd feel like that, but...
11:59Life goes on.
12:02And unless you acknowledge that and leave the past in the past,
12:07you can never move forward.
12:11And there are people here who want to help you to do that.
12:14People who care.
12:16Well, they used to.
12:18Now they're going to hate me.
12:20Smashing cake, tearing down birthday banners.
12:23Well, from what I can gather on the Ella's surprise birthday party,
12:27from what I can gather on the Ella's surprise birthday group chat,
12:31people are mortified that they've caused offence and...
12:36still hoping you might join them for a drink in the pub.
12:39They are.
12:41So I think you should just put all this upset behind you
12:45and let them raise a glass.
12:48You do? I do.
12:52Come on.
12:55We'll go together.
13:13Your superfood smoothie.
13:15You took your time.
13:17I wanted to be sure I got it right.
13:19Even though you might be in the process of divorce from my best friend.
13:22Your best friend who dumped me.
13:25You're still a valued customer.
13:27And you're welcome here any time.
13:31I appreciate it.
13:32I'm grateful of the support.
13:34Things can just get a bit heightened, you know, when people split up.
13:45Something wrong?
13:46That's foul, disgusting, bitter.
13:49Just like you.
13:50I'm sorry it's not to your taste.
13:52I added salt instead of sugar.
13:54A bit of chilli sauce.
13:57Water. I need some water.
13:59Then I suggest you head to the shop and buy a bottle.
14:01If I had my way, you'd be barred.
14:03But Brenda thinks we shouldn't take sides.
14:05I've done nothing wrong.
14:06I'm the injured party here.
14:08It's me that's surplus to requirements.
14:10You had us all conned.
14:12When she married you, I was actually happy for her more than for me.
14:15I'm just doing what women do to blokes every day.
14:18You know, if it was the other way round,
14:20you'd be egging her on, telling her to take me for every penny.
14:23So now you're some kind of poster boy for divorce equality.
14:27Rishi might have had a blind spot for you, but no-one else has.
14:30You were always a miserable excuse for a human being.
14:35Says the woman whose daughter's locked up.
14:38Even he'd be ashamed of you right now.
14:40And if you had anything about you, you'd be ashamed of yourself.
14:49Ella was devastated.
14:51Me, I was mortified.
14:53She meant no harm by it, you know.
14:55How was she to know it's the anniversary of what happened?
14:58Er, are you trolling her?
15:00Yeah, who chose the playlist? Bit inappropriate.
15:03I just chucked together some dance bangers, that's all.
15:06Ella!
15:08Oh, you made it!
15:10You've all been so kind.
15:12I appreciate everything, and I'm sorry if you think I don't.
15:15Well, the last thing anyone's wanted to do was upset you.
15:18Come here.
15:22Hey, listen, Emilia took the picture down.
15:24Yeah, and we should have asked your permission
15:26before we told the whole world it was your birthday.
15:28I think it was just a bit overwhelming, wasn't it?
15:31I hope you can forgive me.
15:33So, if you all still want that drink...
15:35Mm, do you, right, we do!
15:37What are we waiting for, then?
15:39Ooh!
15:41Yeah, happy birthday.
15:43Right, come on, kids, get your requests in!
15:45Karaoke Queen's in the house!
15:47Drop it!
15:49What do you want her to do?
15:51It's going to be fine, innit?
16:14You absolute cow!
16:16I've got all my sisters with me!
16:19She's so beautiful!
16:21We are family!
16:23OK, I'm done.
16:25Get up, everybody, and sing!
16:27Right, come on, we've had enough of that now.
16:29Enough of that.
16:31Ah!
16:33Oh!
16:35Oh!
16:37Oh!
16:39Oh!
16:41Oh!
16:43Oh, go on, listen, give us a song.
16:45Absolutely not!
16:47Remember what I said, though. I'm sorry.
16:49All that effort you went to.
16:51Nah, there's no need.
16:53Nobody's ever... I mean, I've never had a grown-up birthday before.
16:55Not like this.
16:57Well, we'll have to make sure he's one to remember, then, won't we?
16:59Right, come on, Roro, me and you.
17:01Do you get time?
17:03No moaning!
17:07Right, what shall we choose?
17:09Oh, Roro, angels. Do you like angels?
17:11I'm not that one.
17:13Are you glad you came?
17:15Thank you for talking me round.
17:25Listen, I...
17:27I hope you don't mind.
17:29I don't want to make it awkward, cos...
17:31you and I are obviously not, you know...
17:33Mind what?
17:35Oh.
17:39I got you this.
17:43Open it.
17:49So, I don't know if you remember, but
17:51a few months ago we were in town
17:53and you said you liked it.
17:55So, um, I thought I'd pop in this morning and, uh...
17:59I love it.
18:01Oh, yeah.
18:03I feel the love is here.
18:05Come on, birthday girl, let's do this together!
18:07I've just told Mandy. I don't.
18:09I can't.
18:11Oh, you can do anything you want to.
18:13Yeah, I'll second that.
18:15Come on, you've got this!
18:17Underneath protection
18:19A lot of love and affection
18:21Whether I'm right or wrong
18:23Down the waterfall
18:27Wherever it may take me
18:29Yes!
18:31You are ringing
18:33When I come to call
18:37She won't forsake me
18:39Alright, Ruth.
18:41I'm loving angels instead
18:43I'm loving angels instead
19:01Great song.
19:03We played it at our Joanne's funeral.
19:07How did you even find me?
19:09Seeing as you had the gall
19:11I figured it were game on.
19:13Wasn't hard to track you down.
19:15Weren't you in here dinner time last week?
19:17That's right.
19:19You've been here?
19:21Just keeping an eye on you.
19:23Nothing more.
19:25The way the law works,
19:27I'd be hauled over the coals if you saw me,
19:29so I kept my distance.
19:31Until this.
19:33Two
19:35gurning idiots.
19:37Celebrating Ruth.
19:39It's big day.
19:41So I just wanted to bring her something.
19:43To make it really special.
19:45Please go away.
19:47Okay, this is a private party.
19:49Yeah, and you're not invited.
19:51So sling it.
19:53I'm not here to make trouble.
19:55Just open the card, Ruth, and I'll go.
19:57I wanted to pass on Joanne's happy return,
19:59seeing as she can't.
20:01Our little star, Aunty June,
20:03used to call her.
20:05Because she was.
20:07Wasn't she, Ruth?
20:09Okay, I think that's enough.
20:11You can do what now?
20:13This?
20:15This is our Joanne.
20:17She was kind.
20:19She was kind.
20:21She was kind.
20:23She was kind.
20:25She was kind
20:27and funny
20:29and stroppy.
20:31And we loved her.
20:33And this monster
20:35destroyed our family
20:37when she took her away from us.
20:39Her eleventh
20:41birthday was her last
20:43birthday ever.
20:47Why don't any of you get it?
20:49We do. I promise.
20:51I do. Come on, let's go.
20:53Come on.
20:55I knew this was a bad idea.
21:07Well, the deeds are in my name.
21:09You bet I'm still married to him.
21:11Salt in my smoothie.
21:13And now this. I am being persecuted.
21:15What are you doing?
21:17Sorry, I'll call you back.
21:19What are you doing? You don't live here anymore.
21:21At least knock before you barge in.
21:23Or I could do what you just did to me
21:25and break in and empty the entire
21:27contents of your house.
21:29What? I know it was you.
21:31Just like you got Nicola to lace my
21:33smoothie. I have no idea
21:35what you're talking about. Oh, stop
21:37lying to me. I don't deserve
21:39this. You're the one that wanted
21:41the divorce. Deserve what?
21:43I just went home
21:45to find that someone's been
21:47in and taken every stick of
21:49furniture out of my house.
21:51The only things that are left are some clothes and some
21:53stupid sign about karma.
21:55Genius.
21:57But it's not me. I mean, I wish it had been.
21:59Well, who else would it be?
22:01This morning, you threatened me.
22:03Yeah, with what you deserved.
22:05And maybe the universe was listening.
22:07It was you. It has
22:09to be. Jay, I'm recovering
22:11from a heart attack. The most I can do
22:13is lift a laundry basket.
22:15Funny that, because you look well enough to me.
22:17Get out.
22:19I am telling you now, you have made a massive
22:21mistake. Look, the only mistake I have
22:23made is marrying you.
22:25Now I need to get to work, so either get out
22:27or I'll call the police.
22:29Ruth!
22:31Ruth, stop!
22:33Stop, Ruth!
22:37Don't come near me!
22:39Do you know what?
22:41I wish you'd died that day.
22:43If I wanted, I could make it right like that.
22:45I'd be lying
22:47if I said I hadn't had a thought about it over a year.
22:49You stay away.
22:51I'm not going to hurt you.
22:53Not because I don't want to. I'd like nothing more.
22:55But since I don't want to spend the rest of my time
22:57inside with scum like you,
22:59I can't touch you. Leave me alone.
23:01It's not me you want to be worried
23:03about.
23:05You can run
23:07as fast as you want.
23:09Change your name again, get a shiny new life.
23:11But you'll never outrun what you are.
23:13What you did.
23:15That evil inside you.
23:17I can smell it from here.
23:19So can those
23:21new mates of yours.
23:23Ella? Is everything alright?
23:25What's wrong? I'm fine.
23:27Don't worry.
23:29I haven't touched her.
23:31I wouldn't soil my hands.
23:35Happy birthday, Ruth.
23:37Let's hope for all our sakes it's your last one.
23:43Ella, love.
23:45He found me in the pub.
23:47He followed me.
23:49Right. Come on, I want you to take some
23:51deep breaths. Let's get you back inside.
23:53You can tell me all about it.
23:55Come on.
24:03Hey.
24:05Didn't expect to see you so soon.
24:07Yeah, well, Evan's had his chemo and he's settled, so
24:09Dawn sent me home to sort Glammy and Lucas.
24:11I told Kim.
24:13She rang me on her way back from the hospital.
24:15She called you? Yeah, she wanted an update
24:17on Evan. So she can find time to
24:19message Dawn and phone you up, but she can't be bothered
24:21to call me back? I'm sure she'll be in touch
24:23sooner or later. Who are you trying to kid?
24:25We both know it's too late for that.
24:27She doesn't give a stuff.
24:29Her silence can only mean one thing.
24:31That me and her, we're done.
24:42Don't give me that.
24:44I know it was you.
24:46You're the only one who hates me enough.
24:48Of course not, Jay. Look around.
24:50You've got more enemies than friends.
24:52Well, why don't I tell the police? See what they've got
24:54to say about it. And I'll tell them the truth.
24:56But if I had any spare cash, do you honestly
24:58think I would hire somebody to clear your house?
25:00Whose house? My house.
25:02Something the matter?
25:04Jay's been burgled. Apparently.
25:06Someone's cleared out the whole place. I mean,
25:08even the toilet roll holders.
25:10What about that weird lamp in the hall?
25:12Yes, and it's not weird.
25:14It's classy. Or that hideous
25:16octagonal structure thing on the wall.
25:18Hexagons, and yes.
25:20It was so in your face, Jay.
25:22Come on. More like a crime against
25:24interior design. Sounds like whoever's
25:26done it has done you a favour. Now you can redecorate.
25:28Find yourself something a bit more
25:30contemporary. It was you,
25:32wasn't it? You did it
25:34for her. That's why you left that sign about
25:36karma. Sign about karma?
25:38You had the motive,
25:40you've had the opportunity, and
25:42you know where I hide the spare key.
25:44Listen, Jay, I've just had my nails done.
25:46Do you really think I'd be shifting furniture with ease?
25:48Why didn't you tell that to the police?
25:50She was here in the cafe
25:52when you stormed out, working on the laptop
25:54round my nose. So why don't you
25:56back off, Jay, and go back to your big empty house
25:58and leave us alone? When you find out
26:00who it was, let me know, so I can buy my drink.
26:02I know it
26:04was you. And I'm gonna
26:06prove it.
26:10So,
26:12where do you put all the stuff?
26:16Oh, er,
26:18can you see to the cars?
26:20Paddy's running late, and he'll be here to give them
26:22their shots in about an hour. You off somewhere?
26:24Norfolk. I need to get going
26:26if I want to be there by tonight.
26:28I'm booked into a B&B, and I'm in dinner
26:30with a livestock agent. Don't tell me you're still gonna go
26:32see that bull. Hey,
26:34if he looks as good as he does online, he'll be a great
26:36asset for the herd. Dad said no.
26:38Can't afford it, can you? Well, it's my
26:40farm, Nate. I make the decisions.
26:42Tell him that the kids are with Lydia.
26:44His dinner's in the fridge, and I should be back
26:46by lunchtime tomorrow. Cheers.
26:54Ta-da!
26:56We got some other fellas to do it.
26:58Jimmy wasn't so keen. We can't do that,
27:00Nico. It breaks the life code.
27:02But I, um,
27:04didn't see that he had no choice.
27:06So it was you, after all!
27:08Oh, planned with military
27:10precision. As soon as Jay left this morning,
27:12they went in.
27:14We just kept an eye on his movements. I knew he'd go off
27:16on one about his smoother this morning, which
27:18bought us a bit of extra time. I mean, they left with seconds
27:20to spare. But when Jay accused
27:22you, you just looked as innocent as I did.
27:24Well, I can lie like a pro when I
27:26have to. Kim taught me. It's direct
27:28eye contact, not a hint of a smirk.
27:30Genius. The little rat's
27:32finally got what's coming to him. I can't condone
27:34this behaviour, though. You know, you're stealing
27:36from Jay and breaking and entering.
27:38I mean, that is too criminal. Offences,
27:40girls. Well, put it all back
27:42eventually. But the way
27:44he's been getting at you, I had to do something.
27:46You should have put a hidden camera in. I'd love
27:48to have seen his face when he realised that all of this had gone.
27:52Now, if it was me,
27:54I'd take all this stuff to some auction
27:56down south, sell it, you get the
27:58proceeds, deposit towards someone new.
28:00That's a great idea! No.
28:02Well,
28:04I mean, I probably wouldn't
28:06get much cash for it, but
28:08I mean, he actually paid for this. What was he
28:10thinking? I definitely have a problem with
28:12this.
28:14I do love you both. You know that, don't you?
28:16Aw, right back at you.
28:18And you know, this is just a warning.
28:20If he keeps bullying you,
28:22he's not going to know what's hit him.
28:28Hey.
28:30Here you go.
28:34What did you think
28:36gave him the right, eh?
28:38Turning up here today
28:40and spoiling your birthday?
28:42He only said what everyone else is thinking
28:44since they found out about Joanne.
28:46Murdering scum, that's me.
28:48An ex-con
28:50who's not to be trusted around kids or
28:52decent people.
28:54You know, when it
28:56came out,
28:58what happened all those years ago,
29:00it did come as a shock to all of us.
29:02It always does.
29:04Everywhere I've ended up
29:06since I got out of prison.
29:08Yeah, but those of us that have got to know you,
29:10we've realised it's the person
29:12that you are now that matters,
29:14not the child you used to be.
29:18I've been so happy.
29:22Today was the first time I've dared to
29:24hope that this time it might work out.
29:26That I've finally
29:28found somewhere I can call home.
29:30Yeah. Yes, and you have.
29:32Oh, but it's all broken now.
29:34No, Ella.
29:36No, it isn't.
29:38I can't run.
29:40You don't have to.
29:42I can't hide from who I am. There's no point in trying.
29:44Ella, just take a deep breath.
29:46Please.
29:48There's no safe space. There's no second chances.
29:50I don't belong here. I never will.
29:52I know that Gary's upset you.
29:54I know he has, but I promise you,
29:56I promise you, everyone
29:58who's in that pub,
30:00they're there because they care about you.
30:04Ow!
30:10You think you know me?
30:12You don't know me
30:14at all.
30:22Please.
30:28Please don't hit me again.
30:30I will, unless you call the police.
30:34There's no
30:36need for that, Ella. Look, whatever
30:38is going on here, we can sort it out.
30:42Not gonna happen, Wendy.
30:44Call the police. Do it now.
30:46Or do I really have to hurt you?
30:48Ah!
30:50Okay.
30:52Okay, but
30:54my phone, it's in the
30:56staff room. Use mine.
31:02Police, please.
31:08Hello. I'd like to
31:10report an incident.
31:14I'm at Brook Cottage Surgery,
31:16Main Street, Emmerdale.
31:18If you don't get here soon, she gets it in the neck.
31:20Got it?
31:22Ow!
31:24What the?
31:26She's lost it!
31:28Ella! What's wrong? What's this about?
31:30What's this about?
31:46People say we should just move on.
31:48How can we?
31:50Ruth broke us.
31:52She broke our family.
31:54And I do know
31:56how tough that is.
32:02I lost my own daughter
32:04not so long ago.
32:06She was...
32:08She had just 18.
32:10And the
32:12only comfort
32:14I have is knowing
32:16that the person
32:18who murdered Leanna is in prison
32:20and she will never be released.
32:22I'm sorry?
32:24But your
32:26aunt was not even 12 years old
32:28when Ruth killed her.
32:30She had her whole life
32:32ahead of her, just like your girl.
32:34And now that cow's
32:36out already.
32:38The rest of her life in front of her.
32:42You call that justice?
32:44You call that justice?
32:50I happen to know
32:52that what Ella
32:54and then Ruth
32:56did to Joanne
32:58has
33:00haunted her ever since.
33:02She tell you that?
33:04Ella regrets
33:06what she did
33:08bitterly.
33:10She's haunted
33:12by grief
33:14and guilt.
33:16She knows she will never be able
33:18to live a normal life because of it.
33:20You feel sorry for her?
33:22I think that
33:24everyone
33:26if they're genuinely repentant,
33:28if they've done the work,
33:30if they've changed for the better,
33:32deserves a second chance.
33:34Or even the woman who killed your girl?
33:36Even her.
33:38If I thought for a moment
33:40she was capable of
33:42self-awareness or
33:44introspection.
33:46Well,
33:50you're a better man than I am.
34:00So, I found
34:02the sales room that opens in Brighton today.
34:04Oh, give it a break, Gabby.
34:06Oh, three times in one day.
34:08You're spoiling me, Jo.
34:10Why are you two looking so happy?
34:12Oh, just life. That's all.
34:14You know, since I had my heart attack,
34:16I just appreciate
34:18every day, every moment
34:20I treasure.
34:22Double points for every day that she's been separated from you.
34:24Triple when you're divorced.
34:34I know you've got my stuff.
34:36Look, do you actually want to order something?
34:38Because if not, I'm going to have to ask you to leave.
34:40Yeah, you know what?
34:42I'll have an Americano.
34:44Just over there, please.
34:46Oh, and actually, I might have a piece of cake as well
34:48and treat myself, because actually
34:50I'm celebrating too, as it happens.
34:52You know, whoever emptied out my house
34:54did me a favour. It was too big, you see.
34:56Me and Art,
34:58we were rattling round that big old place
35:00and, well,
35:02Priya's put up the rent.
35:04So I've decided to downsize.
35:06And as you've so kindly
35:08helped me with my...
35:10I can't hear you, Jay!
35:16Kindly helped me with my packing?
35:18Not her. Not me.
35:20Us. No.
35:22I don't even need to fork out for a removals van.
35:24You know, I can't wait to meet my new neighbours.
35:26Oh, wow. What a treat for them.
35:28Oh!
35:30No, I forgot.
35:32No, I don't, do I? Cos I already know them.
35:34Yeah. See, I've taken out a lease
35:36on Conalton.
35:38Bob's new tenants pulled out
35:40and he was more than happy to help out a neighbour in need.
35:42It's, er...
35:44Look, you're moving across the road.
35:48It's your best to make that two coffees.
35:50He'll be here any minute to drop off the keys.
35:52New start for all of us, eh?
35:54Oh!
35:58And I brought you this back.
36:02Never a truer word.
36:08What Gary said
36:10to you,
36:12I understand.
36:14It was triggering. I know that.
36:16My first and
36:18final party.
36:20For a minute there, I actually started
36:22to enjoy myself.
36:24We can work through this.
36:26Get you some proper help.
36:28Some counselling.
36:30I've had enough of that for one lifetime.
36:32Well, I'm gonna
36:34call the police and tell them it was all a misunderstanding.
36:36When I bust Wendy's
36:38nose. Good luck with that.
36:42We can sort this.
36:44I promise.
36:46Joanne died. I didn't.
36:48Nobody's gonna
36:50be able to forgive or forget.
36:52Gary was right.
36:54Why should I be out here living my life
36:56when she can't?
36:58Why did I think I even could?
37:00Well, you're living proof
37:02that you can. Because people
37:04around here, they love you. And I loved Joanne.
37:06I miss her
37:08every day.
37:10And I'm sorry that she died, but
37:12sorry doesn't bring somebody back, does it?
37:16Please let me help you through this.
37:18What I did.
37:20No matter how fast I try
37:22to run, it catches me up every time.
37:24I'll never
37:26be able to escape.
37:28I'm cursed.
37:30I don't deserve to be loved.
37:32I don't deserve a life.
37:34A family.
37:36A baby.
37:38Those things
37:40are for normal people.
37:42Not killers like me.
37:44Well, I'm sorry, but
37:46I don't subscribe to that.
37:48What Gary said was wrong.
37:50Okay, look how far you've come.
37:52There are so many
37:54people here who are your friends
37:56and they care for you. We can fix
37:58this. No, you can't.
38:00Nobody can.
38:02I'm done.
38:04It's over.
38:10At least I won't have
38:12to pretend when I'm back inside.
38:14Prison.
38:16That's what this is all about.
38:18You want to go back?
38:20I'm so tired, Mampreet.
38:22I just want to go
38:24home.
38:26This is your home.
38:28You're already here.
38:30Give this to Liam for me, please.
38:36We've had a call about
38:38a disturbance. It was me.
38:40I admit
38:42everything.
38:44It was me.
38:46Everyone's asleep.
38:48Stable.
38:50So me and Dawn were wondering
38:52if you wouldn't mind taking a night shift
38:54so she can see the kids,
38:56get some rest.
38:58Will.
39:00Look, Dawn needs a break.
39:02She needs to come home, but you know,
39:04if you're too busy to give her, Dan...
39:06Sorry. It's business.
39:08There's some stuff going on.
39:10Yeah, well, there's some massive stuff going on at the hospital.
39:12Life or death stuff.
39:14You know, Dawn is being so strong
39:16and she's holding it together, but
39:18I can't hold her together on my own.
39:20She needs a dad.
39:22I've not been pulling my weight. I get it.
39:24Look, I know you've got your issues with Kim and the haulage,
39:26but we've got some serious issues with two kids
39:28who are worried about their little brother.
39:30Of course you have.
39:32And Rose, she's either gone off the radar or gone missing.
39:34I'll do tonight.
39:36Tell Dawn that she can come home.
39:38Oh, and tell her that, um...
39:40I've spoken to the police about her, Mum.
39:42Tell her yourself.
39:44I've got to take the kids' football practice.
39:46I'll message her, I promise.
39:54PHONE BUZZES
40:00Oh, no, no, no. I'm only her husband.
40:02Why would she bother even telling me, eh?
40:04Look, listen, I need to go now.
40:06See ya. Bye.
40:08Hey, thanks.
40:10Moira winding you up?
40:12Nothing she does or says makes any sense.
40:14One minute she's up, the next minute she's down.
40:16Then she's acting like she hates me.
40:18And that's before she's even had a drink.
40:20Hmm. Don't sound like her.
40:22Mind you, the past few times she's been in,
40:24she hasn't knocked back a few more than her usual.
40:26Yeah, and now Nat's just told me
40:28that she's off to Norfolk to look at some bull
40:30that we can't even afford.
40:32Now that is Moira. You know she's always run that farm her way.
40:34Yeah, but she's never gone off before
40:36for the night just without telling me.
40:38Well, maybe she needs some time.
40:40For what?
40:42To look at the bull.
40:44She runs a business. She's a way on business, end of.
40:46Hmm.
40:48That's up to her.
40:56Bob said he's sorry that he couldn't stop for a chat,
40:58but the B&B's rammed.
41:00Unlike this place.
41:02Are you really moving into the village?
41:04I'll see you at the housewarming.
41:06Does that mean you're going to pay people to turn up?
41:08And you can tell whoever's got my stuff
41:10that I'll be at Conalton tomorrow.
41:12Hmm?
41:14Shall we say two o'clock?
41:16She doesn't know what you're talking about.
41:18Archie's going to be back soon.
41:20I'd rather not break his heart by telling him
41:22that his stepmother has made off with his bed,
41:24his signed football shirt,
41:26and his flipping beetle collection.
41:28So can you make sure that I get all my gear back
41:30in pristine condition?
41:32And I might think about not calling the police.
41:34Oh, no, call them. I haven't got any proof.
41:36All them wagons have trackers, Laurel.
41:38If I want proof, I'll get proof.
41:40You wouldn't, would you?
41:42Get my stuff back to me,
41:44and you won't have to find out.
41:46Oh, and, uh,
41:48thanks for the coffee.
41:50You really are spoiling me.
41:52He don't mean it.
41:54He does.
41:56Heavy word.
42:00Wendy?
42:02Oh, your face.
42:04There's nothing wrong. I'm more shaken than anything.
42:06Well, what happened?
42:08I don't know. It was Ella.
42:10She had some kind of breakdown.
42:16Oh, Ella, what have you done?
42:18This woman is a patient in crisis.
42:20In my capacity as her GP,
42:22I have to insist that you let her go.
42:24And I obviously concur with my colleague's diagnosis.
42:26Thanks, but we'll take things from here.
42:28We'll be back to take a statement in due course.
42:30Okay, look, don't worry about it.
42:32We are going to get you a solicitor.
42:34Yeah, we'll sort it out.
42:36Thank you for everything,
42:38but this is for the best.
42:44I don't believe this.
42:46Be happy, Liam.
42:48Please.
42:50Mind your head.
42:58Ella asked me to give you this.
