00:27Divorce?
00:28That's right.
00:29But I thought I...
00:30You thought what?
00:31I thought you'd come to talk to me, to see how I am.
00:33I don't care how you are. I just want this sorted.
00:36But why now?
00:37Why not?
00:38It's that Lorraine, isn't it?
00:40It's got nothing to do with Lorraine.
00:42That cow's already ruined my life and now she wants to grind me face in the dirt.
00:45And you ruined your own life.
00:46Oh, and how did I do that?
00:47By lying to me.
00:48You were bedding that slag behind my back.
00:50It wasn't like that.
00:51No? Well then how was it?
00:52It don't matter now.
00:53It does. If you were so straight you should have come clean as soon as you started.
00:56I don't have to listen to this.
00:58Grant, where are you going? You can't just run away.
01:00Watch me.
01:01I want to know what gives you the right to criticise me.
01:03To make me feel guilty when you were the one cheating on me, lying to me.
01:06I lied to you for a couple of days, you were at it for months.
01:08I wasn't between our sheets with some other bloke.
01:10It don't matter now. I don't love you and we don't have a future together.
01:14Oh, but you have with her.
01:15That's right, as soon as we're divorced.
01:16What, just like that?
01:17Just like that.
01:18Well, I'm sorry, Grant, but you ain't going to get a divorce.
01:21You what?
01:23You heard. You can whistle for it.
01:25Tiffany, we're getting a divorce.
01:27It ain't happening.
01:28Why not? Why can't you just let me go?
01:29Because it's what you want.
01:31All I want is to be rid of you.
01:33Grant!
01:34Tiffany, don't push me.
01:36Let go of me!
01:39Grant!
01:41Grant!
01:42Get back inside.
01:43You're a coward.
01:45Look, just get back inside.
01:46You've got no right to do this to me.
01:50To do what?
01:51Humiliate me.
01:52Don't you know how I feel?
01:54I don't care how you feel.
01:56I just want rid of you.
01:57Yeah, well, you get rid of me, then you get rid of this kid.
02:00Not if he's mine.
02:01I won't even let you see her.
02:02You can't stop me.
02:03I'm her mother.
02:04It ain't up to you.
02:05I'll claw your face off if you as much as come near her.
02:07You really are out of control.
02:08Why are you doing this to me?
02:09I hate you! I hate you so much!
02:12I hate you so much!
02:19Don't touch me.
02:24Are you OK?
02:26Go away.
02:29I said leave me alone.
02:49Grant!
02:57Here you are.
02:58Thanks.
03:02You all right?
03:03Yeah, why?
03:04You seem a bit tense.
03:05Do I?
03:06Yeah, just a bit, yeah.
03:07No, I'm fine.
03:10Grant told me about the baby.
03:12You know, that it might not be his.
03:14Oh.
03:15I wish I'd known before, really.
03:16I mean, some of the things I've said to you about.
03:18Nigel, a lot of what he said was right.
03:20But we were in the wrong.
03:22We both are, in a way.
03:26Come on.
03:32Come on, let's go and get a drink.
03:41What are we doing here?
03:42What do you mean?
03:43Well, it's so straight, I can't even touch you.
03:46Well, I'm having a good time.
03:53You look great.
03:55Oh, thanks.
03:56You have a good time?
03:57Yeah, brilliant.
03:58I heard you went to Barcelona, too.
04:00Yeah.
04:01It's a great place.
04:02Have you been there, then?
04:03It's fantastic.
04:05Look, what can I get you?
04:07A vodka and tonic and a pint of lager, please.
04:14What was that for?
04:15Well, I just love you, don't I?
04:18Look, try and stand, yeah?
04:19I can't!
04:20I'll call an ambulance.
04:21No, don't!
04:22Tiffany!
04:23Grant, you take me!
04:24No, no, I can't.
04:25Please, I'm in agony!
04:27I'll get your brother, yeah?
04:28There ain't time!
04:30Listen, I'm just going to look for him, make sure he's okay.
04:32Oh, I wouldn't worry, he'll be back in a minute.
04:34Well, I'd rather make sure. See you later.
04:36Yeah, all right, see you.
04:42Hey, get in there, my son!
04:44What?
04:46Is that Lorraine? She looks a bit all right, isn't she?
04:48Yeah.
04:49Shame she's here, it's like we've gone, though, isn't it?
04:51What do you mean?
04:52You should be in there, couldn't you?
04:53What are you talking about?
04:54Come on, she really likes you!
04:56We're just friends.
04:57Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
04:58We are!
04:59You mean you don't fancy her?
05:00No.
05:01Mate, she is gorgeous, come on!
05:03Look, just drop it, Sanjay, all right?
05:10What are you doing?
05:11Taking a break.
05:13Why?
05:14Felt like it.
05:15Come and dance.
05:16In a minute.
05:17No!
05:18Sit up there, it'll feel like it.
05:20I thought we were going to have a good time, Alan.
05:22Yeah, so did I.
05:26Nothing!
05:27I ain't had time!
05:28If I'm bare the honeymoon, you could at least pick up some brochures.
05:30I've been busy.
05:31Doing what?
05:32Working.
05:33What, 24 hours a day?
05:34Look, the thing is, Phil ain't been around and...
05:37And what?
05:38Well, there's been a bit of trouble.
05:40What kind of trouble?
05:41Ricky, I want to know!
05:44All I'm saying is it's nice to go to a place where you can be yourself.
05:47Why can't you be yourself here?
05:49Well, it's just different. People expect different things.
05:51Like what?
05:52Well, we can't snog on the dance floor for a start.
05:55So?
05:56Why do we have to pray the fact we'll go wherever we go?
05:58I'm not saying that.
06:00Well, what are you saying?
06:01A pint of lager, please.
06:20Do you want a brownie, do you?
06:22Perfect.
06:24Hiya.
06:25Hiya, Trish. You haven't seen Grant, have you?
06:27Grant?
06:28Well, I thought he might have popped back for something.
06:30Oh, no.
06:31I'll offer the cops a toast anyway.
06:34So, no Grant in the rain tonight?
06:36No, I've gone out for the evening. He left me on me tod.
06:39Well, everyone needs a night off, don't they?
06:41Yeah.
06:42But I'd appreciate a bit of warning.
06:43Passionate use, Peggy.
06:45You remember Alex.
06:46Oh, very funny.
06:47Look, you short stuff.
06:49I can lend a hand.
06:50No, thank you.
06:51Well, I don't mind.
06:52We can manage.
06:53I just don't like being taken for a ride.
06:55Hey, forget about it.
06:56Oh, I'm serious, George.
06:57That Lorraine, she takes advantage.
06:59I'm sure she doesn't mean to.
07:01Oh, yes, she does.
07:02She thinks she can ride roughshod over me
07:04just because she's Grant's bit on the side.
07:06She thinks she can ride roughshod over me
07:08just because she's Grant's bit on the side.
07:24Grant?
07:28I went round to see Tiffany earlier.
07:30Oh, did you?
07:31Yeah.
07:32How is she?
07:33I'm good.
07:34Must be uncomfortable.
07:36She's miserable.
07:37Sitting in that flat all on her own.
07:40What about that brother of his?
07:41Gone out, hasn't he?
07:43I mean, can you imagine?
07:44Waiting to have your baby.
07:46Knowing you're going to be on your own.
07:48No husband to look after you.
07:50It's tough.
07:52She obviously still loves Grant.
07:54If only you'd seen sense.
07:56Get back together with her.
07:57I'm sure she'd make him happy.
07:59Well, she didn't before.
08:01But she's changed, George.
08:03She's grown up a lot.
08:05Yeah, well, Grant's got other things on his mind, hasn't he?
08:07Like?
08:08Like Lorraine.
08:14I'll be back in a sec.
08:16Peggy?
08:17Listen, if he does turn up, tell him I've gone home.
08:20Yeah, OK.
08:21Oh, hello.
08:22What a surprise.
08:24Hello, Peggy.
08:25So, what's this then?
08:26Just dropping in to visit the workers?
08:28No, I just thought I'd pop back for a sec.
08:30Oh, why's that?
08:31It's not important.
08:32No, go on, tell me. I'm interested.
08:34Well, I just thought Grant might be here, but he's not.
08:36So it doesn't matter.
08:37Hold on.
08:38I thought you two were off out for the night.
08:40Well, we are.
08:41Well, what would he be doing back here, then?
08:43I don't know, I just thought...
08:44Oh, don't tell me you've had another row.
08:46What do you mean, another?
08:48Well, I've seen the two of you.
08:49Seen us what?
08:50Bickering.
08:51We don't bicker.
08:52Oh, really?
08:53Oh, well, you could have fooled me.
08:54Oh, I've got to go.
08:55Oh, yes, of course you have, darling.
08:57I mean, it's not often you get a night off together.
08:59You ought to make the most of it.
09:02Bye.
09:07What does he see in that woman?
09:10What?
09:30Hello?
09:33Bickering.
09:36I'm just saying, sometimes it's best to leave people to lead their own lives.
09:40You think I'm meddling, don't you?
09:42No, not at all.
09:43What, then?
09:44I'm just not sure you're doing any good.
09:46Look, that Lorraine busts up my family.
09:49People break up. It happens.
09:51Yeah, and look at the damage it does.
09:53Well, he survived that business with Sharon, didn't he?
09:55Just about.
09:56Look, Grant's been around. He can look after himself.
09:58He can't.
09:59Well, why not?
10:00Because Lorraine's got him wrapped around her little finger.
10:02He's in love with her.
10:03Oh, well, that's his problem. He always falls for the wrong woman.
10:06And you're going to put him straight, are you?
10:08Well, someone has to.
10:15I just don't think we have to be all over each other just to express our affection.
10:19Oh, well, if you're embarrassed by me.
10:21I'm not embarrassed.
10:22Well, what?
10:24Tony, what is going on?
10:27I can't believe that you could get involved in something like this.
10:30I didn't tell you. I was doing Phil a favour.
10:32Well, why didn't you tell the police then?
10:34I couldn't call him. He's a mate.
10:35What's that, a mate?
10:36He feels really bad about it.
10:37Oh, that's nice.
10:38What's he going to do, come and visit you in prison?
10:40I ain't going to prison.
10:41How do you know?
10:42Because Phil set me up with this loyal bloke who's meant to be really good.
10:44It'll probably just be a fight.
10:45Well, when are you going to court?
10:47Soon.
10:48How soon?
10:49Next month, the 15th.
10:51The 15th?
10:52I know.
10:53That's just days before the wedding.
10:54I know, and I'm sorry.
10:55Oh, Ricky!
10:56It'll be all right. Phil's going to pay the fine for me.
10:58Then he says I'll get a nice little bonus at the end of it.
11:00How little?
11:01Three grand.
11:03Three grand?
11:05Well, at least there's something.
11:06Anyway, I still think you're a moron for getting involved in it.
11:08In future, ask me before you do something, all right?
11:11Go and get me a drink.
11:19Is Emma so excited about it?
11:20I bet she is.
11:21I hope it works out for her.
11:22I think it will.
11:23I suppose she's got as good a chance as any.
11:26What about yourself?
11:27What about me?
11:28Well, you know.
11:29I've got my kids. I'm OK.
11:30That's enough, is it?
11:32It'll do.
11:39Ever since Tiff's been back, you've been strange with me.
11:41No, I haven't.
11:42Yes, you have. You've been fussing around her day and night.
11:45She's pregnant.
11:46Exactly.
11:47And it might be your baby.
11:49So?
11:50So it's changing things, isn't it?
11:52Simon, this has got nothing to do with the baby, has it?
11:55Well, what then?
11:56I don't know. I'm just...
11:58I'm just confused, all right?
12:00About what?
12:03Tony, about what?
12:09This ain't about me, George.
12:11It's about Grant.
12:12It's about his future.
12:14I mean, how would you feel if you never had your Annie?
12:18Think what you'd have missed out on.
12:20You'd have lost the most important thing in the world.
12:23My kids are the only thing that's ever mattered to me.
12:26And I know Lizard, Grant's the same way.
12:29I ain't going to stand by and watch him miss out on being a dad,
12:32having a family,
12:34when it's only that Lorraine that stands in his way.
12:45Orford Hospital.
12:48Excuse me.
12:50Hurry up, will you?
12:52It's starting again. It's hurting really bad.
12:54All right, all right, all right.
12:55And you are?
12:56Tiffany Mitchell.
12:57Did you bring your head?
12:58I didn't have a chance.
12:59Have you had a show?
13:00I don't know.
13:01How regular are the contractions?
13:02I don't know. I haven't been counting.
13:04OK, well, we'll have to check to see how far you've dilated.
13:06You don't have to check anything. I'm having a baby.
13:08Don't worry. It probably feels worse than it is.
13:11Please give me something for the pain in.
13:13We'll have to take a look at you first.
13:14I'm in agony.
13:15Tiffany, shut up.
13:16Don't tell me to shut up.
13:17She's trying to help you.
13:18I don't want help. I want drugs.
13:20All right, I'm going to go.
13:21You can't.
13:22I shouldn't be here. I'll ring Tony and Simon.
13:23Grant, please.
13:24You'll be all right.
13:25Grant, don't go. I need you here.
13:27I'm just not ready for all this.
13:29Please.
13:34Look, I'm not saying I don't find blokes attractive.
13:37It's just...
13:38Well, just what?
13:40I fancy women too.
13:43Tony, loads of blokes think they're bisexual when they first come out.
13:46It's just an insecurity thing.
13:48It's not. I really feel like that.
13:51Well, then why didn't you say anything earlier?
13:53Like I said, I was confused.
13:55So what's changed?
13:56I don't know.
13:58Is it because of Tiffany?
14:00No, Simon, I promise you, it's got nothing to do with Tiffany.
14:03Well, then what?
14:06Then something happened.
14:08Like what?
14:09Have you met someone?
14:11No.
14:12Have you slept with someone?
14:13No, nothing's happened.
14:16I've just been thinking about...
14:17What, about sleeping with someone?
14:19No.
14:20About what I really want, all right?
14:25Well, er...
14:27Where does that leave us, then?
14:29Come on, nothing's changed.
14:31But how can you be satisfied with me if you like women too?
14:34Look, I'm sure you see blokes you fancy.
14:36Don't mean to say you're going to run off and jump in the bed with them.
14:38Yeah, but they're blokes.
14:40So?
14:41I just have more choice.
14:43Don't mean I'm going to do anything.
14:46I was insecure when we started this conversation.
14:49I can't tell you how I'm feeling now.
14:51Oh, come on, you don't have to feel insecure.
14:55I love you.
14:57Don't want anyone else.
15:03Where have the nurses gone to?
15:05I don't know.
15:06Are you all right?
15:07No, it's getting worse.
15:08Every time it comes, it gets worse.
15:10I'm going to go and find out what they're doing, yeah?
15:11Grant...
15:12You're not going to go, are you?
15:14I'm going to find the nurses, I'm going to ring Tony, and then I'm going to go.
15:16No.
15:17What do you want me to stay for?
15:18I just do.
15:19An hour ago, we were at each other's throats.
15:21Yeah, I know, but I didn't mean it.
15:22Yes, you did. We both did.
15:24Grant, I really need you here.
15:26No, Tiffany.
15:28But she might be yours.
15:30This might be your McKinley.
15:32Please stay.
15:35Hello.
15:37You must be Mrs Mitchell.
15:38That's right.
15:39How are you feeling?
15:40Terrible.
15:41Right, well, let's have a look at you, shall we?
15:44I'm going to go and ring the club.
15:46Grant...
15:47If you could just move down a bit.
16:03What can I get you?
16:04Two bottles of beer, Lenny.
16:10Cobra, hello?
16:12Hello?
16:25Sorry about that, guys.
16:26Two bottles of lager.
16:29Do you think we should give Tiff a ring?
16:30For what for?
16:31Just to be on the safe side.
16:33Nah, she'll call us if anything happens.
16:35Yeah, I suppose.
16:48What's this for?
16:50It measures your contractions on the baby's heartbeat.
16:52It means we can keep an eye on him.
16:54Her.
16:55Her.
16:57Sorry.
17:03No problem.
17:26Keep the change.
17:38You know what, I reckon that Lenny fancies you.
17:40What?
17:41Lenny, I reckon he's after you.
17:42Oh, don't be stupid.
17:43Have you thought any more about Rye's mate?
17:45What about?
17:46Well, who do you reckon we should have?
17:47Well, I don't know.
17:48Janine, Sonia, Sarah.
17:50Sarah Hills?
17:51Yeah, why not?
17:52She likes that sort of thing.
17:53She looks like Charming or something.
17:54Oh, she will.
17:55She's a nutter.
17:56She's nice.
17:57Well, if you say so, Ricky.
17:58But I ain't having her trail up the arm behind me.
17:59And I've just thought I've really got to decide who's going to give me away.
18:02As long as it ain't David, I don't care.
18:03Ricky, I'm being serious.
18:04Well, have you thought any more about Alan?
18:06Yeah, but I don't think my mum would be too pleased.
18:08You never know.
18:09She might be all right about it.
18:10Do you reckon?
18:16I'm going.
18:17Already?
18:18Yeah.
18:19But I don't want to leave Vic on his own all night.
18:21Suit yourself.
18:23See you later.
18:27Right.
18:29You just can't give up on life.
18:31I'm not.
18:32On men, then.
18:33Men, maybe.
18:34What you need is someone new and exciting.
18:36Oh, yeah?
18:37Got anybody in mind?
18:41We're just friends, Michael.
18:47You still love Alan, don't you?
18:51If you still love the guy, why don't you make another go of it?
18:54No.
18:55Why not?
18:58Because he wouldn't want to.
19:00Has he said that?
19:01No.
19:02Well, have you asked him?
19:03What, make a fool of myself?
19:05Well, if you don't ask him, you're not going to find out, are you?
19:07I can't.
19:09Why not?
19:10I just can't.
19:18Hiya, gorgeous.
19:21You finished with these?
19:22Yeah.
19:23You having a good time?
19:24Yeah, thanks.
19:25Good.
19:26I'll see you later.
19:29I'm right on him in a minute.
19:31Ricky, don't fancy me. That's just the way he is.
19:34Oh, well, I suppose this Gilmero bloke didn't fancy you neither.
19:36What?
19:37Gilmero, your Latin lover boy.
19:39Nothing went on with me and Gilermo, actually.
19:42You go away for a week with a bloke and nothing happened.
19:44That's right.
19:47Oh, you're jealous, aren't you? He's so sweet.
19:49What's sweet about it?
19:50Well, that you like me that much.
19:52Of course I like you. I'm marrying you, aren't I?
19:58Excuse me.
20:01Excuse me, I'm looking for a friend of mine, Tiffany Mitchell.
20:04She's in the delivery room now.
20:05Is she OK?
20:06Yeah, I think so.
20:07Are you sure?
20:08Yes.
20:09If you like, I can tell them you're here.
20:11No, no, it's fine.
20:12It's no problem.
20:13No, really. Look, I'd better go. Thank you anyway.
20:15OK.
20:19Oh, I can feel another one coming. I need something for the pain now.
20:22The anaesthetist will be along in a minute.
20:24Where is he?
20:25In the theatre now. Just try to relax.
20:27Try breathing slowly.
20:31Mr Mitchell?
20:32Yeah?
20:33It helps if you join in too.
20:34Me?
20:35Yes, just breathe with your wife. Help her to stay calm.
20:38And Tiffany, try not to push.
20:41Just breathe?
20:42Yeah, breathe out slowly and gently in short breaths.
20:49Mr Mitchell?
20:50Yeah?
20:51It helps if you both do it at the same time.
20:58Look, erm, why don't you come in for a coffee or something?
21:01No, I'd better be getting back.
21:03Go on.
21:05No, really.
21:11Goodnight, Carol.
21:13Goodnight.
21:14Goodnight.
21:24You're a friend, yeah? I don't want pay.
21:27Look, come on, you've earned it.
21:29It was only a few hours.
21:30Oh, insist.
21:33See you around.
21:34Yeah.
21:36Thanks.
21:45Look, just breathe.
21:47I can't.
21:48Try.
21:49I can't, I can't, it hurts too much.
21:51You're doing fine, Tiffany.
21:53Come on, Tiffany, you can do it.
21:58Hurry up!
21:59I've got my foot stuck.
22:00Oh, come here.
22:01I've been thinking, maybe we should get one of them video things,
22:04you know, have the wedding recorded,
22:06and that way we could get everyone drunk at home.
22:08Yeah.
22:09Yeah.
22:10Maybe we should get one of them video things, you know,
22:12have the wedding recorded,
22:13and that way we could get everyone drunk, it'd be a right laugh.
22:15Then we could give them all a copy
22:16and they'd never forget what a brilliant wedding it is.
22:18Look, will you stop talking about the flaming wedding for one minute?
22:20Why, aren't you interested?
22:21Yeah, I just don't want to talk about it all night.
22:23No, I bet you don't.
22:24Bianca.
22:25Yeah.
22:26I really missed you, you know.
22:27Yeah, and I missed you an awful bit, you every night.
22:30That can well have worked.
22:31Nothing happened.
22:32I know, but I just, you know, I couldn't stand it.
22:34Ricky, I love you, and I don't need anyone else.
22:41How are you doing?
22:42Nothing's really moving.
22:43OK.
22:44Let's get some Syntos started, that'll hurry things up.
22:46If nothing's happened in half an hour, we'll think again.
22:48I'll pop back and see you later, Mrs Mitchell.
22:51What does he mean, think again?
22:53You might have to have forceps, or Von Too's delivery.
22:56Do you know what they are?
22:58Don't worry, everything's going fine.
23:02Why can't we just do it, Grant?
23:04Because you're tired.
23:05I think you've been at it for hours.
23:06I just want to do it.
23:08I think you've been at it for hours.
23:09I just want my baby.
23:11I know.
23:12I want it over with.
23:14It will be soon, I promise.
23:18She's asleep.
23:19Yeah, well, the light's off.
23:22I feel sort of excited just being back here.
23:26You really want this to be your baby, don't you?
23:30Yeah, yeah, I do.
23:32Well, I just hope things don't fall apart, that's all.
23:35Oh, come on, they're not going to fall apart.
23:38Look, you're the most important thing to me.
23:41If this baby is mine, then it's just going to be a bonus.
23:45I really want to be there for her.
23:47This is my chance to be a dad, Si.
23:49I want that.
23:51I really do want that.
23:56Keep pushing.
23:58That's it.
24:00Nearly there.
24:01Now don't stop.
24:03Keep doing it, keep pushing.
24:04Oh, come on.
24:05You're doing it.
24:06Oh, come on, oh, come on.
24:07Okay, relax.
24:20I'm sorry, Grant.
24:23Grant, what's wrong?
24:24Nothing.
24:25What is it?
24:26I'm having difficulties picking up a heartbeat.
24:28Have you checked the leads?
24:29Yeah.
24:30Check them again.
24:31What's going on?
24:32Not sure yet.
24:33What do you mean you're not sure?
24:34Right, straight to theatre.
24:35What's going on?
24:36Now, we need your wife to sign a consent form.
24:37Why?
24:38The baby's in distress.
24:39What sort of distress?
24:40We're not sure exactly, but we need to get her out as soon as we can.
24:42No!
24:43Now, Mrs Mitchell, try and stay calm.
24:45But I've got my baby!
24:46I've got my baby!
25:00Grant, please.
25:02Hold that steady.
25:07What's happening?
25:10They're getting her out.
25:12I can't see a thing.
25:14That's because you're all drugged up.
25:17She's dead, isn't she?
25:19No.
25:21She is.
25:23No, she's going to be all right.
25:25No, I've lost her.
25:26That's my baby.
25:28You haven't.
25:29Right, okay.
25:31Grant?
25:36Grant?
25:38Switch this action on now.
25:39It's going to be okay, yeah?
25:44What's going on?
25:45Please, Mr Mitchell.
25:47Is she alive?
25:48Mr Mitchell!
25:49Well, let me see her!
25:50You're getting away!
25:51I just want to see her!
25:52I'm sorry, you can't!
25:58Tiffany.
26:00Tiffany!
26:02I'll have the next suture, please.
26:06I'm sorry.
26:25Mr Mitchell?
26:29You've got a baby girl.
26:36I'm sorry.
27:06You've got a baby girl.
