00:00["We Wish You a Merry Christmas"]
00:31A year 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.
01:09You want 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?
01:34Churches, 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.
01:51Listen, Paul weren't just my brother, yeah?
01:54He was my twin, so he weren't just your uncle.
01:57He was my twuncle.
01:58Yeah.
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 Platt.
02:20Sorry, I was just...
02:21Taking a moment. Anladom? Understandable.
02:25Memnun oldum.
02:26I'm Emilia Demir.
02:28I'm the CEO of Emilia Aid Cosmetic.
02:30You!
02:31The hospital has been giving me regular updates.
02:34Well, I'm glad somebody's getting them, cos I'm not.
02:36The company would like to cover the costs of your accommodation
02:39whilst Bethany's in hospital.
02:41The...
02:42The hotel bill is a drop in the ocean.
02:45Aye, still.
02:46This... 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.
03:06Bethany gave her consent.
03:08What, to almost dying?
03:10The risks of liposuction surgery are clearly spelled out.
03:14Bak, gudar.
03:16Bethany signed her consent.
03:19Your daughter is an intelligent woman.
03:21She did her research.
03:24We deeply regret the outcome,
03:26but 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.
03:45Kate.
03:47Hiya. What's your plan? Are you headed straight to the church?
03:50Sure wish, 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.
04:11So you tell me, how many suicidal men
04:14want to die with money in the bank?
04:17Well, I'm by the funeral directors 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.
04:36Make 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.
04:47Well, I won't keep you.
04:49Pass on our condolences, won't you?
04:51Yeah, 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.
05:03Well, for a boy racer named after a rocket,
05:06I'd say it's spot on.
05:19Oh, gracious God.
05:22Nothing in death or life.
05:26Nothing in this world as it is.
05:29Nothing in this world as it shall be.
05:33Nothing in all creation
05:36shall separate us from your love.
05:52Where's Joseph?
05:54Oh, he's up for his ears.
05:56It was...
05:58Too much?
06:00Poor lad.
06:01He'll be grand.
06:03What about you two?
06:05You OK?
06:06Yeah.
06:07We'll be grand and all, won't we?
06:11Shall we crack on, then?
06:13After you.
06:18Mum.
06:19Going 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 flight, says Benny. Half-term would be better.
06:56Better than those stupid holiday clubs.
06:58That stupid holiday club cost me an arm and a leg.
07:01Anyway, missus, you are cruising for a late night, come on.
07:04So am I, then, if I'm allowed to book a rest?
07:06But you know that's off the cards.
07:08Darren will forget about us.
07:10It's not fair.
07:11Blame Melina, she's the one putting a block to all this.
07:13Blame you two.
07:14Mum!
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.
07:24She ate three bags of Monster Munch last night.
07:27Cravings.
07:28She's pregnant, can you imagine, at her age?
07:30Well, she's not too old.
07:31I would die.
07:32Don't be like that.
07:33Oh, the shit!
07:34Now you're just being mean.
07:35Why do you care? It's not like shit.
07:39Oh, my God, she is.
07:40She isn't.
07:41You are a rubbish liar.
07:43No way, Dad.
07:44Now I've got a dicky tummy.
07:45Really? We're going to have a little brother or sister that lives with us.
07:49Right, shh, shh, OK?
07:50Listen, you can't tell us all, right?
07:53Not Nana or Granny Cassie or any of your friends.
07:57Right, I'm trusting you two to be mature, OK?
08:00So don't let me down.
08:05Right, pallbearers.
08:08Paul.
08:10Where's David?
08:15Come on.
08:20Oh, you're a handsome devil.
08:22No wonder he fell for you.
08:26This was a huge mistake.
08:28No, it wasn't.
08:29Yeah, it was.
08:30Banging heads with Bernie.
08:32She's his mother.
08:34I should have just let her have it her way
08:36rather than ramming all this dogma down her...
08:38No, stop.
08:40What would Paul say now?
08:44He'd say,
08:46give your head a wobble, Vicar.
08:48Give your head a wobble, Vicar.
08:51So...
08:54I'm doing proud, eh?
09:05All right, kids.
09:06Hands up who here's lifted a coffin before.
09:12Right, well, this ain't going to look weird at all.
09:18Right.
09:45I don't know where else to go.
09:49It's for our Lord to judge it.
09:52Not me.
09:54So don't budge.
09:55Don't booze.
09:57And keep your mitts out of the collection, boss.
09:59All right.
10:00And whatever you do,
10:01do not let the family see you.
10:19MUSIC PLAYS
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.
10:48MUSIC PLAYS
11:11Is this really happening?
11:14It is, darling.
11:16So chin up.
11:18Chesticles out.
11:20Mum, you can't say chesticles in church.
11:22I just did.
11:24Come on, we've got this.
11:49Now, this church, St Mary's,
12:06it holds a very special place in our hearts.
12:12A year ago, today,
12:17Paul could still walk with a little help.
12:23He could still speak and sing and hug.
12:33And on that day,
12:34and on that day,
12:39we got married.
12:43So today, what are we going to say?
12:47Well, it 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 and skinny-dipping
13:16to his heart's content.
13:19And I hope that that brings you all as much comfort as it does me.
13:26I could stand here and reel off a list of facts.
13:30You know, born here, educated there,
13:33but you all know all of that.
13:38And what you don't know,
13:41you could ask his bezzy mate and twin sister, Gemma,
13:46or his loyal, feisty mother, Bernie,
13:51or his adopted daughter, Summer,
13:54who he cherished as if she were his own.
14:00Or his not-so-little brother, Kit, who arrived out of the blue
14:06and has made a huge impression on Paul in only a short few months.
14:13So it's not facts that I want to celebrate today.
14:18It's how Paul made us all feel
14:24about how he lit up a room
14:27when he used to bounce in.
14:31And how he believed, with every atom of his being,
14:37that we are all equal.
14:41How a bishop should be the first one to brew up
14:45or get the drinks in, like every other bod in the squad.
14:51Or how silenced children should be listened to.
14:58And how everything was better with a laugh.
15:05Now, I do have a tendency to preach.
15:09But in my defence, it is part of the job description.
15:14Paul used to say, you need to sugar the medicine.
15:19His life was serious.
15:23Dark at times.
15:25But he would never be a victim.
15:30Just like his hero, Jackie Chan, whenever life chopped him down,
15:36he would just get up again.
15:40And again. And again.
15:44Always with a smile.
15:48Simply put...
15:51Simply put...
15:54the universe was a better place
15:58with Apollo Foreman in it.
16:03Now, the naughty step, it wasn't invented when the twins were at school,
16:09so Paul spent most of his time sat outside Mrs Farnell's office
16:14waiting for a telling off.
16:16You're normally for someone I don't.
16:20So in memory of those more innocent times,
16:26we're going to sing this hymn.
16:29All Things Bright and Beautiful.
16:47You OK, hun?
16:51I suppose you're used to it, aren't you?
16:54Because my family's in the business.
16:5734.
17:00It's nothing.
17:09You couldn't have had a better send-off, Billie. Thank you.
17:12Yeah, it was beautiful. And we're praying for you.
17:16Thanks.
17:21She's just having a moment.
17:24Too much smells and bells.
17:27No.
17:30It's real, that song.
17:33Yeah, I'd forgotten how much I love a good sing-song, Bill.
17:37Oh.
17:40Oh, sorry. No, don't get up. Sorry.
17:43Is Joseph?
17:46Yeah, no, he's upstairs.
17:49They've got your old dartboard out.
17:52How's he been? Teary?
17:55No, not at all, you know.
17:58He's such a good kid.
18:01I wonder if he'll be OK.
18:03He's such a good kid.
18:06I wonder if our Ches are due a swap.
18:09I think Chesney's had enough nappies.
18:12Don't.
18:15I can't stop thinking, you know.
18:18Me too.
18:21Massive news, innit?
18:24My age. I'm trying not to let that, like, overshadow everything.
18:28I mean, when you think about it,
18:30that last minute of extra-time penalty,
18:33it's a gift.
18:36I can't do it.
18:39I don't... I don't think we've got the space.
18:44I don't think we've got the money.
18:47And more than anything, I don't think I've got the energy to hide.
18:51Why don't we just think about it?
18:54I am tired, like, all the time.
18:57I feel rotten in the mornings.
19:00Time before the girls suss, and then I...
19:03There's, you know,
19:06Hope guessed.
19:09What? So you deny it?
19:11Yeah, I tried.
19:13Well, you didn't try very hard.
19:15I did.
19:17Tyrone, did you do that on purpose?
19:20No, no, they've promised me they're not gonna blab.
19:23Well, Hope can't hold her own water, can she?
19:26What am I gonna say to him now if they're all excited?
19:29What...
19:31What is it? What's that?
19:33It's nothing, it's...
19:35Come on.
19:37Don't cover for her, what is it?
19:40She might be minding it for a friend or something.
19:47How dare you.
19:49With your crocodile tears.
19:52I came to show my respect.
19:54Show your respects?
19:55You came to wallow, make it all about yourself.
19:58Straight up.
20:00You couldn't even put a clean shirt on.
20:02You stink like a brewery.
20:04I'm sorry, Billy.
20:06I'll get one of the lads to pat him down before you chuck him out.
20:09There's no need.
20:11No, do. He's probably pinched a few purses when he snuck in.
20:14Look, I...
20:16I told him he could stay.
20:18There was a couple of minutes to go.
20:20He was in a proper state.
20:22I just figured that chucking him out would have caused a scene.
20:25Cast the first stone, eh?
20:27Is that what your Bible says, Vicar?
20:30Don't you twist my words.
20:32It's too late. You've already nailed your colours to the mast.
20:35I'm not picking sides.
20:37So we just sweep all these nasty feelings under a pew?
20:40To keep the focus on Paul.
20:42Exactly.
20:44And have you forgotten what this rat did last time he saw his son?
20:46No.
20:48He got him bladdered, gave him pneumonia,
20:50tried to steal the wheelchair from underneath him.
20:52As if I'd forget.
20:53If he was already in that coffin, it should have been you.
20:55That is uncalled for.
20:57Yeah, but who'd be here to mourn you, eh?
20:59A couple of pawnbrokers and the landlord from the Dog and Gun.
21:02You can't help yourself, even on a sad day like this.
21:04A beautiful service ruined.
21:06Good work, Denzel, even for you.
21:09Anything for a quiet life, eh, Bill?
21:11You're grieving.
21:13But you're not daft.
21:15Thank Christ my boy isn't here to see this.
21:17You didn't have the monopoly, Bernie.
21:19Half his life you were off the radar.
21:22I'm sorry.
21:24I'm sorry.
21:26I'm sorry.
21:28I'm sorry.
21:30I'm sorry.
21:32I'm sorry.
21:34I'm sorry.
21:36I'm sorry.
21:38You what?
21:40Nearly 15 years.
21:43I was there when it mattered.
21:45It's not a competition.
21:47At the end.
21:49One morning,
21:51on the end of the phone,
21:53compared 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 everything.
22:06He was already dead, Billy.
22:08He was already dead.
22:28You're lying to me.
22:31You are, Bernie.
22:33Why are you lying?
22:35I shouldn't have said anything. Now's not the time.
22:37I'm sorry, just wipe it from your brain.
22:40Bernie, please tell me that you're lying.
22:44Look, I'm sorry, Billy, but
22:47letting Denny into the funeral like that, it threw me.
22:50You don't know what he did to me.
22:52This isn't a patch on what you're doing to me right now.
22:56It's what you say.
22:58The last time I spoke to him,
23:00when I said my final goodbyes to my Paul, what?
23:03You know what? He was...
23:05He was already dead.
23:07Look, this isn't doing anyone any favours.
23:10You're only going to torture yourself.
23:12Really?
23:14I thought that was your job.
23:18We need to get going.
23:21I wish I didn't know this.
23:24I wish you'd have lied.
23:26Because what I don't know can't hurt me, and this...
23:29This is killing me.
23:31You really are something else.
23:33Do you know that?
23:40No, there's no news yet, I'm afraid, is there?
23:43Is it true, though?
23:46What, that Abethny had life-saving surgery while in a foreign country?
23:50Yeah, it is true.
23:52Did she really have liposuction and it went wrong,
23:55and that's the real reason that we've all been fundraising?
23:58Are you joking? What were that?
24:00Well... Liposuction?
24:01What?
24:03Where did you hear that?
24:05I was looking on Audrey's social media and...
24:07Audrey's got social media?
24:09She's posted a message on the company's webpage
24:11having a go at them for what they did to her granddaughter.
24:15You can always rely on a silver surfer for gossip.
24:18Blimey.
24:20She said she's got a lifelong condition because of what you did.
24:25She must have thought it was a DM.
24:28Who died and made you, Jessica Fletcher?
24:32Takes less muscles to smile than frown, you know.
24:35You should try it sometime.
24:37Especially you.
24:39You cheeky little...
24:41Are you looking to get grounded or what?
24:43What have I done now?
24:45Does this look familiar?
24:47Dunno, what is it?
24:49Oh, don't play innocent with me, Hope Dobbs.
24:51You know exactly what this is. It's a vape.
24:53Oh, yeah.
24:55Looks like the sort the corner shop sell.
24:57Mic drop.
24:59You promised you'd stopped.
25:01What's this?
25:03At least I'm not doing drugs.
25:05You'll never guess what Bianca James filmed herself doing in chemistry last week.
25:08I am not interested in Bianca James, right?
25:11It's really bad for your vaping.
25:13I can't believe you'd waste good money on poisoning your lungs.
25:16No money changed hands.
25:18You what?
25:20You stole this?
25:22Have you seen how much Dev charges?
25:24It's daylight robbery. You really expect me to pay?
25:26How do you think your nana's gonna react, eh?
25:28Knowing that you've been nicking from her place of work?
25:29I'm gonna take you round there, you're gonna confess,
25:32and you're gonna pay it all back.
25:35I can't believe Jenny's made curry dig and a pineapple hedgehog.
25:38Oh, she's very stuck in the 70s, style-wise, is our Jen.
25:41Probably trying to emulate a Farrah Fawcett flick, bless her.
25:44Must be like looking in a mirror.
25:46Cheeky.
25:48How long's this free bar going on, then?
25:50Until Carla rocks up and asks for her credit card back.
25:53Blimey.
25:55Yeah, she must have been quite fond of Paul.
25:56Yeah.
25:58Poor Gemma, eh? She must be in bits.
26:00Do you know what?
26:02Stays like this 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 wouldn't worry about it, love.
26:21He's often late for stuff, isn't he?
26:23You all right, Bernie?
26:24Well, maybe
26:26he's having a pint with Denny somewhere,
26:28seeing as they're best mates all of a sudden.
26:30Can you not just let that go now?
26:33OK.
26:35Right, total disclosure.
26:40I might have said how,
26:42when he thought that
26:44Paul could hear his voice at the end, that...
26:48Um, what?
26:50They'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.
26:59Oh.
27:01Oh, me and me big mouth.
27:03Um...
27:07And 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?
27:19As Billy's cheerleader.
27:21Better get your pom-poms out.
27:29I'm so sorry, love.
27:32Right, I owe you a big drink.
27:34What do you want, Bill?
27:36What are you looking so miserable for?
27:38Hmm?
27:40Supposed to be a celebration of Paul's life.
27:42Yeah, come on, Shaunie.
27:44Line him up.
27:46Throat like a desert wellie.
27:48It's like being awake.
27:52Go on, then.
27:54Here.
27:56Say something nice about my lovely Paul, Glenda.
27:58Go on.
28:00Yes, love.
28:02No, go on. You go first.
28:04Go on, say something nice.
28:06Just don't let him know him, Bill.
28:08Small community.
28:10Well,
28:12whenever he came in here,
28:14no 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.
28:22Yeah, I do.
28:24Well, go on, then.
28:26Say some things. Remember 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...
28:47Don't be mean.
28:49I know the feeling.
28:51I might go to the bistro for a quick one.
28:53Just quiet, you know.
28:55Thanks for coming.
28:56Yeah.
29:04It's just...
29:06lotsits and them little cheesy biscuits you like.
29:09Smashing.
29:11Should have tied us over till tea.
29:14What are we going to do about Hope?
29:17I don't know.
29:19Can't we just get her a personality transplant?
29:22I can't cope with it, Ty.
29:25It's not easy.
29:27Easy?
29:29When's that girl ever been easy, eh?
29:32Yeah.
29:34There shouldn't be reason to give up on this pregnancy.
29:38Do you think I've...
29:40I feel like this because 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.
29:54Right, OK, OK.
29:58So you are, like, conflicted about it?
30:00Of course I am, yes.
30:03But I don't think we've got any choice.
30:06We've got two.
30:07We've got two choices.
30:10We can't keep this baby.
30:14I'm sorry, I wish things were different.
30:16I 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 dear one
30:53He's got a lovely voice.
30:55Bit pitchy.
30:56And everything I would like to be
31:00Do 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.
31:07Like a fire burning in the wood
31:14Don't talk to me.
31:16Seriously.
31:17Make it by you.
31:19I'm the last person he wants to talk to.
31:22Billy?
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, some Molly calling me for?
31:41I'm here to babysit, Zoe.
31:48What are you all looking at?
31:50I've got a telly on my head.
31:52Billy, where are you going?
31:54I'm going home.
31:57I'm going to get on Grindr.
32:00Come on, I'm just having a laugh.
32:02Probably the laugh of that.
32:04You know, because I've got a sense of humour
32:06unlike you miserable lot.
32:09Will you go after him?
32:11Go on, Tod, he needs a friend.
32:16Yeah, it's all fair, isn't it?
32:18The good ones always go first.
32:21I must be evil.
32:23Snap.
32:27If only she's got marriage, you know.
32:30Oh, I don't know why I'm feeling so sorry for myself.
32:32I mean, there's a pub up the road
32:33that's full of people much worse off than me
32:35and I can't even face them today.
32:39Well, we'll just hunker down here, then.
32:41Hunker in our bunker?
32:43Yeah.
32:44Hunker in our bunker.
32:49There you are.
32:51Come on, let's get you back to the flat.
32:53No, I want to go back.
32:55What's the point of going back?
32:58There's this mug,
33:01his aftershave,
33:02his battered old trainers,
33:04but there's no Paul.
33:05I can't stop here forever.
33:08It's not south-facing, for a start.
33:11And where are you going to hang all your heavenly prints?
33:13You know, the ones with all the inspirational sayings.
33:15In this house, we...
33:17Live, laugh, load.
33:30The last thing that Paul heard me say
33:33that Paul heard me say
33:35can't have been
33:37had me to go and find my phone, can it?
33:40Could be worse, you know.
33:42Could 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.
33:52You've got to count your blessings.
33:54Maybe he chose to go when he wanted to go.
33:59Maybe like that was the last thing he said.
34:01Normal, every day.
34:04Not some Steven Spielberg moment
34:06with a full orchestra and fireworks
34:09and a crying dog.
34:12I just felt so guilty about missing his final moments.
34:18The only thing stopping me from spiralling
34:21was knowing that he'd heard me on the phone.
34:28I don't even have that.
34:32You know, without that, what have I got, you know?
34:38Your good friend, low-cost vodka?
34:40It is a bit.
34:48I always thought that hope
34:51was only a heartbeat away.
34:55Cos without hope, you know, what...
34:58what have we got?
34:59You know, what...
35:00what is the opposite of hope?
35:03Fear.
35:06It's to be frightened of.
35:08Worse happened.
35:10It's despair.
35:30There we go. I'll stop you.
35:32Oh, thanks a lot. Very much to her.
35:34Well, I'm glad that you made it, eh?
35:36A send-off wouldn't be a send-off without Weatherfield royalty,
35:39and I'm staring her right in the face.
35:41Well, Gemma's practically part of my flesh and blood.
35:45As Ross Paul, her twin,
35:48we lived together for a bit.
35:51But neither arrived, no reason sometimes, is there?
35:55But neither arrived, 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 hurried up and got here.
36:07Why?
36:08Well, it's ironic, don't you think?
36:11All right, I'll honest more a sec. Here we go.
36:14Don't let him wind you up.
36:16Well, ironic that our Paul died and did nothing wrong,
36:19and 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?
36:39Well, first-class flights and a tote full of sun cream,
36:42from what I've heard.
36:43Yeah, don't rise to it, yeah? She's grieving.
36:45Railing!
36:47That's what I am. I am railing at the injustice of it all.
36:52Hey, you want to get your money back off these charlatans?
36:55Well, there's no need for that.
36:57Yeah, give it to an MND charity instead.
37:00Go on, ask for it back.
37:02Oh! Oh, here she is, the whistleblower.
37:06Oh, sorry, what have I missed?
37:08Bernie, my love, I am so sorry for your loss.
37:11I'd get your handbag out if I was you, girl.
37:14I've got one word to say to you.
37:16Refund!
37:18When you messaged the company that Bethany used...
37:21You know, for the lipo?
37:24Yeah, when you thought you were DMing them, you weren't.
37:27You sent it publicly, so everybody saw it.
37:30Really? Yeah.
37:32Oof!
37:34Oh, heck, David.
37:39Let's take the weight off, eh?
37:42Over here.
37:44HE GROANS
37:49HE SIGHS
37:53You drunk it all?
37:57No.
38:01My favourite word at the moment.
38:03You and Oliver Twist.
38:05HE SIGHS
38:09HE GROANS
38:13HE SIGHS
38:16You know...
38:18..Paul died...
38:20..knowing he was loved.
38:24Knowing he was loved by you.
38:27And that final moment was...
38:32..just that.
38:34Just one tiny little moment
38:36amidst millions of moments across your relationship.
38:40Like a big, massive jigsaw with...
38:43..so many pieces.
38:47And that was just one little corner.
38:51You really shouldn't beat yourself up about it.
38:58This jigsaw might be finished...
39:01HE SIGHS
39:03..but it's perfect.
39:06When you step back and look at it...
39:11..and you... I've got so much to live for now.
39:14HE SIGHS
39:16One day you'll see, Billy, the world's your oyster.
39:19HE SIGHS
39:21And it'll be there with you...
39:23..just...
39:25..in a different way.
39:27You really are too kind.
39:30I never thought I'd say that about you.
39:32Don't be ridiculous. It's all an act.
39:34It's just my job.
39:36I'm a closet nice guy.
39:43I just want you to be happy.
39:47What are you doing?
39:52I don't know, I just...
39:54Billy, no, no, this is not what you want.
39:57Not at all.
40:00Look, Grant, nothing could be worse than what's going on here,
40:04so come on, just spit it out.
40:06Everybody knows the truth.
40:08Everybody knows that Bethany's over there to get liposuction.
40:13And there's quite a few that aren't happy
40:16because they've been given money
40:18or they feel on false presences, you know?
40:21How did they find out?
40:23I am sorry, I don't know.
40:25How did they find out?
40:27I am sorry, I was only just trying to help.
40:30Oh, Grant, what did you do?
40:32Well, I DM'd on the company's website
40:35complaining 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.
40:50I'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.
41:01Yes, but there have been some screen thingies.
41:04Screenshots.
41:06Yes, and...
41:08And?
41:10Well, some nasty comments.
41:12Right.
41:14I actually had to look up a few of the words.
41:18Bethany's going to have to face the wrath of the pub crowd
41:21when she gets back, along with fighting pneumonia and sepsis.
41:27Of course I've thought about it.
41:31I've thought about nothing else.
41:34I've pictured how...
41:36..how it could all look, like...
41:39..five years from now.
41:42Or ten.
41:44Or 20.
41:47And 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.
41:56We've already got enough plates to spin.
41:59We're barely keeping our heads above water, as it is.
42:06We are not at the right point in our lives to have a new baby, Ty.
42:10We're not.
42:13And I think you'd normally agree with me, I do, but...
42:16..Darren, he's...he's put you in a spin.
42:21Yeah.
42:23Yeah, if I'm honest, I'm...
42:25I've been using all this news as a bit of a distraction from Darren.
42:31But I get it. I do. Yeah, I get it.
42:35So, er...
42:38..an abortion's what we'll do, then.
42:41Oh!
42:44Oh!
42:53Why did you even come back here?
42:55To check you're OK.
42:57You're just fluttering your eyelashes.
42:59I saw you.
43:02I'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? Cheek sores.
43:08Trying 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!
43:21You don't mean that. No, don't I?
43:23Do you? Get out!
43:26Please!
43:34Please.
43:42Please.
43:49I'm so sorry.
43:53I'm so sorry.
