00:31Year to the day.
00:52No, no, no, no. No, not straight on in.
00:55No, you need to use a cloth.
00:57You don't want to be walking down the aisle in shiny kegs, do you, bud?
01:01This is Dev talking, this.
01:03You used to say that ironing was bourgeois.
01:06Bourgeois, my love. And I've evolved.
01:09Want to look your best for your Uncle Paul, don't you, darling?
01:16What's up? Has the cat got your tongue?
01:20Hey.
01:23You're not yourself, love. What's going on?
01:26He's sad. We're all sad.
01:29No, there's something else.
01:33Are you scared?
01:35Churches, they're awful places. They're all smells and bells.
01:39What if I cry?
01:41Mate, we'll probably all cry.
01:44Do you know where I'm gonna go?
01:48Never mind your nan.
01:52Listen, Paul weren't just my brother, yeah?
01:54He was my twin, so he weren't just your uncle.
01:57He was my twinkle.
01:59Yeah.
02:01So it goes deeper with us, yeah?
02:03So we just do what we can.
02:06Listen, your dad will have a word with your auntie Fiz.
02:10You'll be fine there. OK?
02:18Miss Clatt.
02:20Sorry, I was just...
02:22Give me a moment. Understandable.
02:25Memnun oldum.
02:27I'm Emilia Demir. I'm the CEO of Emilia Aid Cosmetic.
02:30You!
02:32The hospital has been giving me regular updates.
02:35Well, I'm glad somebody's getting them, cos I'm not.
02:37The company would like to cover the costs of your accommodation
02:40whilst Bethany's in hospital.
02:42The...the hotel bill is a drop in the ocean.
02:46Aye, still. It's one less concern.
02:49The hospital is charging us £2,000 a day,
02:52which you must know Bethany can't be a first VIP.
02:55This is unprecedented.
02:57I have complete strangers back home who are digging deep.
03:00And all you care about is your bottom line, which is fine, OK?
03:03I just want this nightmare to end.
03:07Bethany gave her consent.
03:09What, to almost dying?
03:11The risks of liposuction surgery are clearly spelled out.
03:14Bak, gudar.
03:16Bethany signed her consent.
03:19Your daughter is an intelligent woman.
03:22She did her research.
03:24We deeply regret the outcome,
03:27but our offer of accommodation is more than generous,
03:30given the circumstances.
03:33But, Miss Platt, we are not in the bazaar.
03:37This is a one-time offer.
03:40You should accept it.
03:46Kate.
03:47Hiya. What's your plan? Are you headed straight to the church?
03:50Sure, if Bernie said why.
03:52You know, it can wait.
03:54Spill.
03:56Well, you know, Joel and I were planning our wedding.
03:59You being chased for money?
04:01We'd paid a few deposits, you know, venue, honeymoon.
04:04It's all a random.
04:06He'd already beat me to it.
04:08Last week.
04:10So you tell me, how many suicidal men
04:14want to die with money in the bank?
04:17Well, I'm by the funeral director's now,
04:19so I'll be ten minutes.
04:21All right, bye.
04:24Kate, I'm, er, I'm glad I've got with you.
04:27We've, er...
04:29We had a wit round at the station.
04:32Paul's M&E group.
04:34Nice one.
04:36I'll make sure they get it.
04:39Any word on dear in second car?
04:41Well, I've asked for A&PR tracers on both vehicles.
04:44Just be good to know which one he powers up first.
04:48Well, they won't keep you.
04:50Pass on our condolences, won't you?
04:52Yeah, will do.
04:53A disco hearse.
04:55It's a new one on me.
04:57Not camp at all.
04:59Coolio, like the man himself.
05:01It's a Bobby Dazzler, all right.
05:04Well, for a boy racer named after a rocket,
05:07I'd say it's spot on.
05:20Oh, gracious God.
05:23Nothing in death or life,
05:27nothing in this world as it is,
05:30nothing in this world as it shall be,
05:35nothing in all creation
05:38shall separate us from your love.
05:54Where's Joseph?
05:56Oh, he's up for his ears.
05:58He was...
05:59Too much?
06:01Poor lad.
06:02He'll be grand.
06:04What about you two?
06:06You OK?
06:07Yeah.
06:08We'll be grand and all, won't we?
06:11Shall we crack on, then?
06:13After you.
06:18Mum, going AWOL.
06:21At least we know it's serious, though.
06:23I mean, she loves a funeral.
06:24Get a lot of rest, darling, please.
06:27She says thank you.
06:29All right, you too.
06:31Bye.
06:33I tell you, what a piece of work.
06:36Was that the actual owner?
06:38CEO, apparently.
06:39She's messing with the wrong family here, I'm telling you that.
06:42Who are you? Reggie Craig?
06:44No swaying turkey, Gran, or anywhere for that matter.
06:47Yes, well, the only thing she cares about is her lovely reputation,
06:50so that's what we've got to trash, believe me.
06:54Summer flights, says Benny. Half-term would be better.
06:56Better than those stupid holiday clubs.
06:59That stupid holiday club cost me an arm and a leg.
07:01Anyway, Mrs, you are cruising for a late night. Come on.
07:04So am I, then. Pamela objected to book a rest.
07:07But you know that's off the cards.
07:09Dorian will forget about us.
07:10It's not fair.
07:11Blame Melina. She's the one putting the book to her mouth.
07:14Blame you two. Mum!
07:15Shh! Your mum's in bed. She's not feeling too good.
07:18Mum never gets ill.
07:19Right, just leave her.
07:20Hungover. Check the recycling.
07:22She's not hungover. She's just got a dicky tummy.
07:25She ate three bags of Monster Munch last night.
07:27Cravings.
07:28She's pregnant. Can you imagine at her age?
07:31Well, she's not too old.
07:32I would die.
07:33Don't be like that.
07:34Oh, the shame.
07:35Now you're just being mean.
07:36She cares. It's not like she hurts.
07:39Oh, my God, she is.
07:41She isn't.
07:42You are a rubbish liar.
07:43No way, Dad.
07:44Now I've got a dicky tummy.
07:46Really?
07:47We're going to have a little brother or sister that lives with us.
07:49Right, shh.
07:50Shh, OK? Listen.
07:52You can't tell us all, right?
07:54Not Nana or Granny Cassie or any of your friends.
07:58Right, I'm trusting you two to be mature, OK?
08:00So don't let me down.
08:03Mmm.
08:06Right, pallbearers.
08:09Paul.
08:11Where's David?
08:16Oh, God.
08:21Oh, you're a handsome devil.
08:23No wonder he fell for you.
08:27This was a huge mistake.
08:29No, it wasn't.
08:30Yeah, it was.
08:31Banging heads with Bernie.
08:33She's his mother.
08:35I should have just let her have it her way
08:37rather than ramming all this dogma down her...
08:39No, stop.
08:42What would Paul say now?
08:46He'd say,
08:48give your head a wobble, Vicar.
08:51So?
08:54Don't do him proud, eh?
08:57Yeah.
09:05All right, kids.
09:06Hands up who here's lifted a coffin before?
09:12Right, well, this isn't going to look weird at all.
09:26Oh, God.
09:36Oh, God's name.
09:44I don't know where else to go.
09:49It is for our Lord to judge it.
09:53Not me.
09:54So don't budge, don't booze,
09:57and keep your mitts out of the collection box.
09:59All right.
10:00And whatever you do,
10:01do not let the family see you.
10:25Welcome to this celebration of the life of Apollo Foreman.
10:31Paul, to his friends.
10:35For those who are able,
10:36please stand as we receive Paul's coffin into the church.
10:54Come on.
11:12Is this really happening?
11:15It is, darling.
11:17It's all chin up.
11:19Chesticles out.
11:21Mum, you can't say chesticles in church.
11:23I just did.
11:25Come on, we've got this.
11:54Come on.
12:03Now this church,
12:05St Mary's,
12:07it holds a very special place in our hearts.
12:14A year ago,
12:16today,
12:18Paul could still walk
12:21with a little help.
12:24He could still speak
12:28and sing
12:31and hug.
12:34And on that day,
12:39we got married.
12:43So today,
12:46what are we going to say?
12:47Well,
12:49it isn't goodbye.
12:51It's au revoir.
12:56Because I know that when our time comes,
13:00we will meet Paul again in heaven.
13:05Paul as we remember him.
13:09Singing and dancing
13:13and skinny dipping
13:16to his heart's content.
13:17And I hope that that brings you all as much comfort as it does me.
13:25I could stand here and reel off a list of facts.
13:29Born here, educated there,
13:33but you all know all of that.
13:36And what you don't know,
13:39you could ask his bezzy mate
13:42and twin sister, Gemma.
13:45Or his
13:47loyal, feisty mother,
13:50Bernie.
13:51Or his adopted daughter, Summer, who
13:56he cherished
13:58as if she were his own.
14:01Or his not-so-little brother, Kit,
14:03who arrived out of the blue
14:06and has made a huge impression on Paul
14:09in only a short few months.
14:13So it's not facts that I want to celebrate today.
14:16It's...
14:18It's how Paul
14:21made us all feel.
14:24About how he lit up a room
14:28when he used to bounce in.
14:31And how he believed with every atom
14:35of his being
14:37that we are all equal.
14:41Our bishop should be the first one to brew up
14:44or get the drinks in,
14:46like every other bod in the squad.
14:50Or how
14:52silenced children should be listened to.
14:58And I hope everything was better with a laugh.
15:04No, I do have a tendency to preach.
15:09But in my defence,
15:11it is part of the job description.
15:14Paul used to say
15:16you need to sugar the medicine.
15:19His life was serious.
15:24Dark at times.
15:28But he would never be a victim.
15:33Just like his hero, Jackie Chan, whenever life
15:36chopped him down,
15:38he would just get up
15:40again
15:42and again
15:43and again.
15:46Always with a smile.
15:50Simply put,
15:54the universe was a better place
15:58with Apollo Foreman in it.
16:03Now, the naughty step, it wasn't invented
16:07when the twins were at school,
16:09so Paul spent most of his time
16:11sat outside Mrs. Farnell's office,
16:14waiting for the telling off.
16:16Normally for someone I don't.
16:20So in memory of
16:22those more innocent times,
16:26we're going to sing this hymn.
16:29All Things Bright and Beautiful.
16:41You OK, hun?
16:45I suppose you're used to it, aren't you?
16:47Because my family's in the business.
16:5134.
16:53It's nothing.
16:55You couldn't have had a better send off, Billie, huh?
16:59Yeah, it was beautiful.
17:01And we're praying for you.
17:03Thanks.
17:08She's just having a moment.
17:10Yeah, I'm just going to be a minute.
17:12I'm sorry.
17:14It's OK.
17:16It's OK.
17:18It's OK.
17:20It's OK.
17:22It's OK.
17:24Well, women,
17:26too much spells and bells.
17:29No.
17:31It's real, that song.
17:34Yeah, I'd forgotten how much
17:36I love a good sing-song, Bill.
17:50Oh, sorry. No, don't go.
17:52Sorry.
17:53Er, yeah, no, he's, erm... He's upstairs.
17:55They've got your old dartboard out.
17:58How's he been? Teary?
18:00No, not at all, you know.
18:02He's such a good kid.
18:04Wonder if our Ches are due a swap.
18:07Think Chesney's had enough nappies.
18:10Don't.
18:13Can't stop thinking, you know.
18:15Oh, me too.
18:18Massive news, innit?
18:20My age.
18:23I'm trying not to let that, like, overshadow everything.
18:27I mean, when you think about it,
18:29it's like a last-minute-of-extra-time penalty.
18:31And it's...
18:33It's a gift.
18:36I can't do it.
18:39I don't... I don't think...
18:42We've got the space.
18:43I don't think we've got the money.
18:45They're not reasons to... And more than anything,
18:47I don't think I've got the energy to hide.
18:51Why don't we just think about it?
18:53I am tired, like, all the time.
18:56And I feel rotten in the mornings.
18:59It's only a matter of time before the girls suss,
19:01and then I... Our hands in my...
19:03There's...
19:04They know.
19:06Hope guessed.
19:08What? So you deny it?
19:10Yeah, I tried.
19:11Well, you didn't try very hard.
19:12I did.
19:13Tyrone, did you do that on purpose?
19:15Like, to try...
19:16No, no, they've promised me they're not going to blab.
19:19Well, Hope can't hold her own water, can she?
19:22What am I going to say to him now if they're, like...
19:25If they're all excited?
19:30What...
19:31What is it? What's that?
19:33It's nothing, it's just...
19:34Come on.
19:36Don't cover for her. What is it?
19:40She might be minding it for a friend or something.
19:44SHE SIGHS
19:47How dare you?
19:49With your crocodile tears.
19:52I came to show my respect.
19:53Show your respects?
19:55You came to Wallow, make it all about yourself.
19:57Straight up.
19:58You couldn't even put a clean shirt on.
20:01You stink like a brewery.
20:04I'm sorry, Billy.
20:05I'll get one of the lads to pat him down before you chuck him out.
20:08There's no need. No, do.
20:11He's probably pinched a few purses when he snuck in.
20:14Look, I, um...
20:15I told him he could stay.
20:17There was a couple of minutes to go, he was in a proper state.
20:21I just figured that chucking him out would have caused a scene.
20:24Let her who's without sin cast the first stone, eh?
20:28Is that what your Bible says, Vicar?
20:29Don't you twist my words.
20:31It's too late.
20:32You've already nailed your colours to the mast.
20:34I'm not picking sides.
20:36So we just sweep all these nasty feelings under a pew?
20:39No, to keep the focus on Paul.
20:41Exactly.
20:42And have you forgotten what this rat did last time he saw his son?
20:45No.
20:46He got him bladdered, gave him pneumonia,
20:48tried to steal the wheelchair from underneath him.
20:51As if I'd forget.
20:52It was the wrong body in that coffin, it should have been you.
20:54That is uncalled for.
20:56Yeah, but who'd be here to mourn you, eh?
20:58A couple of pawnbrokers and the landlord from the Dog and Gun.
21:01You can't help yourself, even on a sad day like this.
21:03A beautiful service ruined.
21:06Good work, Denzel, even for you.
21:17Anything for a quiet life, eh, Bill?
21:20You're grieving, but you're not daft.
21:23Thank Christ my boy isn't here to see this.
21:26You didn't have the monopoly, Bernie.
21:29Half his life, you were off the radar.
21:32You what?
21:33Nearly 15 years.
21:37I was there when it mattered.
21:39It's not a competition.
21:40At the end, it's a competition.
21:42I'm not going to let you down.
21:44It's not a competition.
21:45At the end.
21:48One morning, on the end of the phone,
21:52compared to the hundreds of mornings that we spent together.
21:56You can lash out all you like, but you can't take those away.
22:00If you say so.
22:02I told him how much I loved him.
22:04He knew that I meant...
22:05He was already dead, Billy.
22:15You're lying to me.
22:17You are. Bernie, why are you lying?
22:20I shouldn't have said anything. Now's not the time.
22:24I'm sorry, just wipe it from your brain.
22:27Bernie, please, tell me that you're lying.
22:31I'm not lying.
22:33I'm not lying.
22:36I'm not lying.
22:38I'm not lying.
22:40I'm not lying.
22:42I'm not lying.
22:44Look, I'm sorry, Billy, but letting Denny into the funeral like that,
22:48it threw me. You don't know what he did to me.
22:50This isn't a patch on what you're doing to me right now.
22:56So what were you saying the last time I spoke to him?
23:00When I said my final goodbyes to my Paul, what?
23:03He was... He was already dead.
23:06Look, this isn't doing anyone any favours.
23:09You're only going to torture yourself.
23:11Oh, really?
23:13I thought that was your job.
23:17We need to get going.
23:20Oh, I wish I didn't know this.
23:23I wish you'd have lied.
23:25Cos what I don't know can't hurt me, and this...
23:28This is killing me.
23:30You really are something else.
23:32Do you know that?
23:39No, there's no news yet, I'm afraid, is there?
23:43Is it true, though?
23:45What, that our Bethany had life-saving surgery
23:48while in a foreign country? Yeah, it is true.
23:50Did she really have liposuction and it went wrong
23:54and that's the real reason that we've all been fundraising?
23:57You're joking. What were that?
23:59Well... Liposuction?
24:01What? Where do you hear that?
24:03I was looking on Audrey's social media and...
24:06Audrey's got social media?
24:08She's posted a message on the company's web page
24:11having a go at them for what they did to her granddaughter.
24:14You can always rely on a silver surfer for gossip.
24:17Blimey.
24:19She said she's got a lifelong condition
24:22because of what you did.
24:24She must have thought it was a DM.
24:27Well, who died and made you, Jessica Fletcher?
24:34Takes less muscles to smile than frown, you know.
24:37You should try it sometime. Especially you.
24:39You cheeky little...
24:41Are you looking to get grounded or what?
24:43What have I done now? Does this look familiar?
24:45Dunno. What is it?
24:47Oh, don't play innocent with me, Hobdobs.
24:49You know exactly what this is. It's a vape.
24:51Oh, yeah. Looks like the sort the corner shop sell.
24:53Mic drop.
24:55You promised you'd stopped.
24:57What's the biggie? It's dangerous. That's the biggie.
25:00We've been through all this.
25:02At least I'm not doing drugs.
25:04You'll never guess what Bianca James filmed herself
25:06doing in chemistry last week.
25:08Bianca James, right?
25:10It's really bad for your vaping.
25:12I can't believe you'd waste good money on poisoning your lungs.
25:15No money changed hands.
25:17You what?
25:19You stole this?
25:21Have you seen how much Dev charges?
25:23It's daylight robbery. You really expect me to pay?
25:25How do you think your nana's gonna react, eh?
25:27Knowing that you've been nicking from her place of work?
25:29I'm gonna take you round there, you're gonna confess
25:31and you're gonna pay it all back.
25:34I can't believe Jenny's made curry dig and a pineapple hedgehog.
25:37Oh, she's very stuck in the 70s.
25:39Style-wise, as our gent.
25:41Probably trying to emulate a Farrah Fawcett flick, bless her.
25:43Must be like looking in a mirror.
25:45Cheeky.
25:47How long's this free bar going on them?
25:49Until Carla rocks up and asks for her credit card back.
25:51Blimey.
25:54She must have been quite fond of Paul.
25:56Yeah. Poor Gemma, eh?
25:58She must be in bits.
26:00Do you know what?
26:02This makes me glad we've got each other, eh?
26:04You're not wrong, cock.
26:06No.
26:11Bernie, have you seen Billy anywhere?
26:13Yeah. Yeah, he's right here.
26:15Wearing one of them invisibility cloaks.
26:17Right.
26:19I won't worry about it, love.
26:21He's often late for stuff, isn't he?
26:23You all right, Bernie?
26:25Or maybe he's having a pint with Denny somewhere,
26:27seeing as they're best mates all of a sudden.
26:29Can you not just let that go now?
26:32OK.
26:34Right, total disclosure.
26:39I might have said how...
26:41when he thought that...
26:43Paul could hear his voice at the end, that...
26:47Um, what?
26:49They'd already passed.
26:52But I didn't mean to.
26:54It's just, I was that riled
26:56by seeing him cosy up to your dad.
26:58Oh.
27:01Oh, me and me big mouth.
27:03Um...
27:08And what are you looking at?
27:10I've just laid my son to rest.
27:12Billy's just laid his husband to rest and all.
27:14Oh, sorry.
27:16Didn't realise you'd got a new job.
27:18Eh?
27:20As Billy's cheerleader.
27:22Better get your pom-poms out.
27:30I'm so sorry, love.
27:32Right, I owe you a big drink.
27:34What do you want, Bill?
27:36What were you looking so miserable for?
27:38Hmm?
27:40Supposed to be a celebration of Paul's life.
27:42Yeah, come on, Shaunie, line him up.
27:44Got a throat like a desert wellie.
27:51It's like being out of week.
27:55Go on, then. Here.
27:57Say something nice about my lovely Paul,
27:59go on.
28:01Yes, love?
28:03No, go on, you go first. Say something nice.
28:05She's not really knowing, Bill.
28:07Small community.
28:09Well...
28:11whenever he came in here,
28:13no matter what were going on,
28:15he always gave me the biggest smile.
28:17And not everyone does, you know.
28:19And I appreciated it, you know.
28:21Yeah, I do.
28:23Well, go on, then.
28:25Say some things.
28:27Remember him.
28:29Reminisce.
28:39Oh, hiya.
28:41Yeah, everyone's taking full advantage of your credit card in there, so...
28:43Oh, that's all right, then.
28:45I was going to come and enjoy him, but, er...
28:48Don't think I'm up your head to face him.
28:50I know the feeling.
28:52I might go to the Bistro for a quick one.
28:54Just quiet, you know.
28:56Yeah.
29:05It's just...
29:07lotsits and them little cheesy biscuits you like.
29:09Smashing.
29:11Should have tied us over till tea.
29:13Mm.
29:15What are we going to do about Hope?
29:17Oh, I don't know.
29:19Can't we just get her a personality transplant?
29:23Oh, I can't cope with it, Ty.
29:26No, it's not easy.
29:28Easy? When's that girl ever been easy, eh?
29:33Yeah, there shouldn't be reason to give up on this pregnancy.
29:39Do you think I feel like this cos I can't cope with Hope?
29:43I can.
29:45That's not why I...
29:50Sorry, I don't...
29:52I don't want to talk about it. It's too much.
29:55OK.
29:57So you are, like, conflicted...
29:59Of course I am, yes!
30:03But I don't think we've got any choice.
30:05We've got two.
30:07We've got two choices.
30:09We can't keep this baby.
30:15I'm sorry. I wish things were different.
30:17I do, but they're not, so...
30:25On your face
30:29You are content to let me shine
30:34That's your way
30:37You always walk to step behind
30:44I used to like this one, you know?
30:47Used to get me to sing it at night.
30:49Did I ever tell you you're my...
30:52What's going on with your voice?
30:55Bit pitchy.
30:57And everything I would like to be...
30:59Do you think he's all right?
31:01Are any of us all right, Gemma?
31:03Probably not.
31:05We just have to find a way to move forward.
31:13Don't talk to me.
31:15Seriously.
31:17Make it right.
31:19I'm the last person he wants to talk to.
31:21Billy?
31:25Listen, why don't I walk you home, eh?
31:27I'll make you a nice cup of tea.
31:29Why, I could take you back to your flat, you know?
31:31We could have a chat.
31:33You didn't waste any time, did you?
31:35Eh?
31:37Come on, just have a little laugh.
31:39What are you trying to mollycoddle me for?
31:41I'm here to babysit, so...
31:48What are you all looking at?
31:50I've got a telly on me head.
31:52Billy, where are you going?
31:54I'm going home.
31:57I'm going to get on Grindr.
32:01Come on, I'm just having a laugh.
32:03Probably the laugh of that.
32:05You know, cos I've got a sense of humour
32:07and, like, you miserable lot.
32:09Will you go after him?
32:11Go on, Tod, he needs a friend.
32:16Yeah, it's all unfair, isn't it?
32:18The good ones always go first.
32:20Mm. I must be evil.
32:22Snap.
32:24Hm.
32:26I've only just got married, you know.
32:28Oh, I don't know why I'm feeling so sorry for myself.
32:30I mean, there's a pub up the road
32:32that's full of people much worse off than me,
32:34and I can't even face them today.
32:36Well, we'll just hunker down here, then.
32:38Hunker in our bunker?
32:40Yeah. Hunker in our bunker.
32:47There you are.
32:49Come on, let's get you back to the flat.
32:51No, I want to go back.
32:54What's the point of going back?
32:57I know this is mug.
32:59It's aftershave,
33:02it's battered old trainers,
33:04but there's no Paul.
33:06We can't stop here forever.
33:09It's not south-facing, for a start.
33:11And where are you gonna hang all your heavenly prints?
33:14You know, the ones with all the inspirational sayings?
33:16In this house, we...
33:18Live, laugh, loathe.
33:20Loathe.
33:31The last thing that Paul heard me say
33:34can't have been,
33:36had me to go and find my phone, can it?
33:39Could be worse, you know.
33:41Could have been having a row,
33:43and the last thing he said was bugger off.
33:45Screw you, Paul Foreman.
33:47Screw you.
33:49Don't.
33:51You've got to count your blessings.
33:53Maybe he chose to go when he wanted to go.
33:57Maybe like that was the last thing he said.
34:00Normal, every day.
34:02Not some Steven Spielberg moment
34:04with a full orchestra and fireworks
34:07and a crying dog.
34:09I just felt so guilty
34:13about missing his final moments.
34:15The only thing...
34:17The only thing stopping me from sparing
34:21was knowing that he'd heard me on the phone.
34:28I don't even have that.
34:32You know, without that,
34:35what have I got, you know?
34:37Your good friend low-cost vodka.
34:40It is a bit.
34:48I always thought that hope
34:51was only a heartbeat away.
34:55Because without hope, you know,
34:57what have we got?
34:59You know, what is the opposite of hope?
35:03Fear.
35:05What's there to be frightened of?
35:07The worst that's happened.
35:09It's despair.
35:11Despair.
35:16Ah!
35:34There we go. I'll stop you.
35:36Oh, thanks a lot. Very much to her.
35:38Well, I'm glad that you made it, eh?
35:40A send-off wouldn't be a send-off without Weatherfield royalty.
35:43And I'm staring her right in the face.
35:45Well, Gemma's a practical part of my flesh and blood.
35:48As was Paul, her twin.
35:51We lived together for a bit.
35:54But neither have no reason sometimes, is there?
35:59Is Dave all right over there?
36:01Oh, you don't want to know, cock.
36:03I'll leave you to it.
36:05Wish your gran had hurry up and got here.
36:07Why?
36:09Don't you think?
36:11All right, I'll harness more a sec. Keep your wig on.
36:14Don't let him wind you up.
36:16Well, ironic that our Paul died and did nothing wrong,
36:20and yet your family are passing the cap round
36:23to raise funds for Bethany, and surprise, surprise,
36:26she brought it all on herself.
36:28Hey, that's bang out of order, that, Bernie.
36:30Is it? Are you sure about that?
36:32Only I didn't realise that liposuction
36:35was a life-saving treatment.
36:37She's gravely ill. Does it matter how she got there?
36:40First-class flights and a tote full of sun cream,
36:42from what I've heard.
36:44Yeah, don't rise to it, yeah? She's grieving.
36:46Railing! That's what I am.
36:48I am railing at the injustice of it all.
36:51Hey, you want to get your money back off these charlatans?
36:54Well, there's no need for that.
36:56Yeah, give it to an MND charity instead.
36:59Go on, ask for it back.
37:01Oh! Oh, here she is.
37:03The whistleblower.
37:05Oh, sorry, what have I missed?
37:07Bernie, my love, I am so sorry for your loss.
37:10I'd get your handbag out if I was you, girl.
37:13I've got one word to say to you.
37:15Refund!
37:17When you messaged the company that Bethany used...
37:20You know, for the lipo?
37:22Yeah.
37:24When you thought you were DMing them, you weren't.
37:26You sent it publicly, so everybody saw it.
37:29Really?
37:32Yeah.
37:34Oh, heck, David.
37:38Let's take the weight off, eh?
37:40Over here.
37:52You've drunk it all.
37:54Mm.
37:56No.
37:59That's my favourite word at the moment.
38:01Yeah, you and Oliver Twist.
38:03Oh...
38:07HE SIGHS
38:09HE SIGHS
38:17You know...
38:19Paul died...
38:21knowing he was loved.
38:23HE SIGHS
38:25Knowing he was loved by you.
38:27And...
38:29that final moment was...
38:32just that.
38:34Just one tiny little moment.
38:37Amidst millions of moments across your relationship.
38:42Like a big, massive jigsaw with...
38:45so many pieces.
38:49And there was just one little corner.
38:53You really shouldn't beat yourself up about it.
39:00This jigsaw might be finished...
39:03HE SIGHS
39:05but it's perfect.
39:08When you step back and look at it...
39:11and you... I've got so much to live for now.
39:16One day you'll see, Billy, the world's your oyster.
39:21And it'll be there with you.
39:23Just...
39:25in a different way.
39:27You really are too kind.
39:30I never thought I'd say that about you.
39:33Don't be ridiculous. It's all an act.
39:35It's just my job.
39:39I'm a closet nice guy.
39:45I just want you to be happy.
39:49What are you doing?
39:54I don't know, I just... I thought...
39:56Billy, no. No, this is not what you want.
39:59Not at all.
40:05Look, Gran, nothing could be worse than what's going on here,
40:08so come on, just spit it out.
40:10Everybody knows the truth.
40:13Everybody knows that Bethany's over there to get liposuction.
40:17And, um, there's quite a few that aren't happy
40:20because they've been given money
40:22or they feel on false presences, you know?
40:25How did they find out?
40:28I am sorry. I was only just trying to help.
40:31Oh, Gran, what did you do?
40:33Well, I DM'd on the company's website,
40:36complaining about what had gone on.
40:38But it wasn't a DM.
40:40I put it on the clinic wall and my wall for everyone to see.
40:45Well, David thinks I need a digital detox.
40:51I'm sorry, sweetheart, I was trying to help, honestly.
40:54I mean, how bad is it? Can the clinic not delete the post?
40:57Um, well, they have.
40:59Oh, well, that's good.
41:02Yes, but there have been some screen thingies.
41:05Screenshots?
41:07Yes, and...
41:09And?
41:11Well, some nasty comments.
41:13Right.
41:15I actually had to look up a few of the words.
41:19Bethany's going to have to face the wrath of the pub crowd
41:22when she gets back, along with fighting pneumonia and sepsis.
41:28Of course I've thought about it.
41:32I've thought about nothing else.
41:35I've pictured how...
41:37how it could all look, like...
41:40..five years from now.
41:42Or ten.
41:44Or 20.
41:49And it's...it's too much.
41:52It wouldn't be fair on the new little one,
41:54and it wouldn't be fair on us.
41:57We've already got enough plates to spin.
42:00We're barely keeping our heads above water, as it is.
42:07We are not at the right point in our lives to have a new baby, Ty.
42:11We're not.
42:14And I think you'd normally agree with me, I do, but...
42:18..Darren, he's...he's put you in a spin.
42:24Yeah.
42:26Yeah, if I'm honest, I'm...
42:28I've been using all this news as a bit of a distraction from Darren.
42:34But I get it. I do. Yeah, I get it.
42:38So, er...
42:40..an abortion's what we'll do, then.
42:53Why did you even come back here?
42:55To check you were OK.
42:57Fluttering your eyelashes.
42:59I saw you.
43:01I'm surprised you've even kept the keks on this long.
43:04I'm a grieving widower. I know you are.
43:06What are you talking about? Which is why...
43:08Jigsaw's trying to butter me up.
43:10I didn't misread the signs.
43:12You just got stage fright.
43:14There's no need to be like that, Billy.
43:16Stop being so flaming reasonable!
43:19Just get out! You don't mean that.
43:21No, don't I?
43:23Do you? Get out!
43:26Please!
43:34Please.
43:48I'm so sorry.
43:52I'm so sorry.
43:55I'm so sorry.
44:25I'm so sorry.
