00:00Long time no see.
00:30I've seen that look on a lot of people's faces since I've been back this year.
00:35You're, uh...
00:37You're looking good, David.
00:42Well, you ain't looking too bad yourself.
00:45For someone who's dead.
00:48So let's get the easy bit out of the way, shall we?
00:52What you doing here?
00:54Oh.
00:56Um...
00:58I've, um...
00:59I've had to come...
01:00Come over and see Bianca because she's... she's...
01:02Yeah, yeah, it's fine.
01:04I know.
01:06The decimal count's gone up since she came back.
01:09In fact, a few of the traders have complained to the council about the noise.
01:14Oh, blimey.
01:17So, uh...
01:18How long's it been? About...
01:2130 years?
01:2427?
01:26No, nearly 28.
01:29Oh.
01:31And all that time I...
01:34I thought you were pushing up daisies.
01:39So let's do the hard part now, shall we?
01:50Forty-five's free, we can talk in there.
01:54What?
01:56Ian's house?
01:58Yeah, that's...
01:59something I've got to...
02:01talk to you about.
02:06Can I have another one?
02:07No.
02:08It's only a doughnut.
02:09Yeah, which are two quid each, times two is four quid.
02:13What, do you think I'm made of money?
02:15Come on, I'll fill you up with some custard creams.
02:17I've sure got a mouldy packet in the cupboard somewhere.
02:19Oh, see you back there.
02:20I'm only joking about being mouldy.
02:22Yeah, I know, but I'm...
02:24I'm meeting Zane and Luca,
02:25and they'll be here in a bit.
02:27All right.
02:28Make sure they save you some.
02:29See you later.
02:40Dad?
02:43Dad?
02:44Dad?
02:55What, again?
02:57Maybe it's all this sitting down,
02:59or something's pressing on my bladder, but...
03:01if it's too much trouble, I'll just sit around and wet myself.
03:04No, I just thought something was the matter, that's all.
03:07Anyway, all these farmers' lifts are going to be better than the gym, innit?
03:11And then we can have dinner, yeah?
03:14Tonight's treat night,
03:15so I'm going to go down to McClunkey's to get you a takeaway.
03:19Again?
03:20So you actually haven't made anything?
03:23Well, you can never have too many treats, can you?
03:27I don't know what's more shocking,
03:30you turning into Lazarus,
03:31or being shacked up with my brother playing Happy Families again.
03:35Behave.
03:36Last time I saw you, Cindy,
03:38you just had him shot.
03:41Yeah, well,
03:42times were different back then.
03:44I'm a different person now.
03:47You don't look too different to me.
03:49And is that good or bad?
03:52Hmm.
03:53And what is this?
03:55Sheets in France.
03:57Spent a bit of time there.
03:58Nice.
03:59Pool and everything.
04:01Yeah, I loved it.
04:05And now me and you are back in Walford.
04:09So, what was it?
04:11Were you...
04:12on the run, or something?
04:15No.
04:17There's got to be hundreds in there.
04:20Yeah, I'll see what I can get.
04:22Then I'll see you down Westfield.
04:41Blimey, pigeons!
04:42Oi, what are you doing?
04:48Anna.
04:49Hi.
04:52Listen, I'm planning something for later on.
04:55Well, to do with your mum.
04:56So, why are you telling me?
04:59Because I...
05:00I think I need to apologise.
05:03First, it's...
05:05Look, all that stuff with...
05:07Bobby and how I've been towards you since...
05:11Look, we just need to draw a line under it, OK?
05:15What's brought this on?
05:18Well, we're family, aren't we?
05:20I mean, obviously, me and Bobby are, but...
05:23you and me, I mean...
05:24we're family as well.
05:26And...
05:27I really shouldn't have taken sides like I did, so...
05:32I'm sorry.
05:34Yeah, well...
05:36I suppose I've got my fair bit to apologise for too, so...
05:40whatever you've got planned for mum must be pretty big.
05:43It is.
05:49Oh, Ian.
05:50Yeah?
05:51Yeah.
05:52What's this?
05:53A petition.
05:55You're not going to force a debate in Parliament with that, are you?
05:58What do you mean by that?
05:59You've only got one name on it, and it's yours.
06:01Well, you've got to start somewhere.
06:03Arrest Rhys Colway.
06:06Are you serious?
06:07You're just the same as everyone else around here, aren't you?
06:09Oh, right, so I'm not the first person you've asked, then?
06:11You can't see what's smacked right in front of your face.
06:14Look, I've got things to do.
06:15No, no, no.
06:16I must run in the family, just like the old man.
06:18What, David?
06:19Yeah, he's a waste of space.
06:21Do you know what?
06:22That is one from the collection.
06:23I think it's the first time you've ever said anything that I actually agree with.
06:25Yeah, and he still is.
06:26Here, Shrimpy, put this thing in front of him.
06:28Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
06:30What do you mean, still is?
06:31Well, he turned up here earlier.
06:34He's probably just...
06:35You haven't seen him, have you?
06:36You haven't seen him, have you?
06:39So, when I'd done the deal with the police,
06:42I had to disappear.
06:44Just wait.
06:46Then, about a year ago, all that waiting came to an end.
06:50Jackie Ford, the woman I ratted on,
06:54she died, so, um,
06:56here I am,
06:58in the land of the living.
07:01And is that when you
07:04got back with Ian?
07:06Yeah, just a bit before that.
07:10I was in a bad way.
07:12A really bad way.
07:15Lucy, yeah, yeah.
07:18One phone call, that's all it took, and
07:22Ian was there for me.
07:25And it's been you and him ever since?
07:29Yeah, yeah, just me and him.
07:32She was a lovely girl, Lucy.
07:36She really was.
07:38She was bright,
07:41beautiful.
07:46Do you know,
07:48I have to say, hand on my heart,
07:51I'm glad you weren't around,
07:53because I can't imagine what that would have done to you back then.
07:57It crucified me.
08:00It still does.
08:02Just
08:04keep thinking if I,
08:05if I hadn't done that deal,
08:07if I hadn't done what the police had told me,
08:10I,
08:12I still would have been sent down, but not for long.
08:18Then I would have been burying my kids,
08:21doing what all mums do,
08:23keeping them safe, keeping them close.
08:26Hey, come on.
08:28Hey.
08:30Look who's here.
08:32Ian. Very cosy.
08:33Good to see you, mate. How you doing?
08:35Wish I could say the same.
08:37You put on weight.
08:38What? No.
08:40Well, I would if I was you.
08:41I would be piling on the pounds.
08:44You've got a lovely home,
08:46lovely partner.
08:48Yeah, I'd be a pig in clover.
08:51Your daughter's looking for you.
08:53Seemed a bit upset.
08:54Seemed to think that you'd just
08:56disappeared on her, left her high and dry.
08:58And I said, what, my brother?
09:00No, he wouldn't do a thing like that.
09:02Well, times change, Ian.
09:04Cindy was just saying the same thing.
09:06Well, times might change, but people don't.
09:09It's a great helo, time.
09:12No, I'm genuinely, genuinely
09:15happy for you both.
09:17Really pleased that things have worked out for you.
09:20You are a lucky, lucky man.
09:30I was only joking.
09:31They're not really mouldy.
09:32They're not donuts either.
09:34Why don't you two go instead?
09:35Where?
09:36To the park with Tommy
09:37and have a little kick about before bed, yeah?
09:39Don't think so.
09:40But you love football.
09:42With Dad.
09:44And not with Tommy?
09:47Mum?
09:48Yeah?
09:49Are you alright?
09:50Yeah, can I have a word?
09:52Yeah, what about?
09:54Is Tommy in?
09:56No, no, he's meeting a few mates at your place.
09:58Why?
09:59What's he done?
10:01Why does she think he's done anything?
10:02Her face.
10:09I'll have chicken, eggs and chips.
10:13Have you taken a night away from the cooker at all?
10:15Well, I just popped in here to get Amy a treat.
10:19Still that bad?
10:20Yeah.
10:22Not as bad as Amy, obviously.
10:24Yeah, she ain't doing that well.
10:27I'm finding things difficult to cope with, Turner.
10:29No, that can't be true.
10:31Why do you think I'm in here?
10:33Forgot about me dinner tonight, didn't I?
10:36It's a shame I can't cope with this, mind you.
10:38A shame any of us have.
10:43He'll come round once the investigation clears me.
10:46And then he'll have some serious heavy-duty groveling.
10:56So Amy's really struggling?
10:57So Amy's really struggling, yeah?
11:01Like, she is still my sister.
11:05It's not just the injuries.
11:07It's everything else.
11:09That's what's bringing her down.
11:11Sometimes it's everything else that's the worst bit.
11:14Maybe I can come over, you know, talk to her.
11:17Give her a few pointers, tips.
11:23So you didn't actually see him take the money?
11:25No.
11:27But he was standing by the till?
11:29The open till, yeah.
11:31Yeah, which you could have left open when you went outside to clean them tables.
11:34Well, I could have.
11:36But I didn't.
11:38Just like I didn't lay into him in front of the other punters,
11:40or tear him off a strip.
11:42Mind you, I didn't get a chance.
11:44He shot off like a school-did cat.
11:46Look, I'm not going to take it any further, Kat, alright?
11:48He's just a kid, innit?
11:50But, you know, I also don't want him thinking,
11:52oh, I got away with it last time, why not try it again?
11:55Just have a word with him, yeah?
11:59Just a gentle warning.
12:02It's always better coming from a mum.
12:13Oh, no.
12:15Not another one.
12:17It's like The Walking Dead round here.
12:19I heard you were back.
12:21Yeah, and I heard you'd been resurrected too.
12:23Who's next?
12:25Aunty Pauline going to pop out from the lingerie?
12:27So you know about Cindy, then?
12:29Yeah, I'd just seen her.
12:31I thought my head was going to explode.
12:33Yeah, she almost could blow your mind, as I remember.
12:37It was certainly unexpected.
12:39It was a shock, to be frank.
12:41Almost as big a shock as finding out that
12:44her and Ian were back together.
12:47Oh, yeah?
12:49No, don't get me wrong.
12:50I mean, he's a fine man, my half-brother.
12:53Pillar of the community.
12:55But?
12:57And be very careful, David.
12:59This is Ian's mum you're talking to.
13:01That was really unexpected.
13:04Yeah, well,
13:06wasn't much fun for me either, to be honest.
13:08What, give a dog a bad name, eh?
13:10Oh, it's not what she used to do, you know,
13:13with all her sundry.
13:15You ain't lost your way with words, have you?
13:17Yeah, it's what she's been doing lately, too.
13:19Such as?
13:21Forget it.
13:23No, no, no, no, no, no.
13:25Tell me.
13:27Come on, tell me.
13:29It's not as if I ain't going to find out, is it?
13:31I mean, what's they secret round here for long?
13:33Well, this is Cindy we're talking about.
13:36Shouldn't take too much working out, should it?
13:44So what was all that about, then?
13:45All what?
13:47You and David,
13:49holding hands.
13:51We weren't holding hands.
13:53Right, so I was hallucinating, then?
13:55I was telling him about Lucy,
13:57and I got upset,
13:59and he reached out to me.
14:01That's what people do, Ian.
14:03Well, normal people, anyway.
14:05Right, so, look, I know I'm not as smooth as David.
14:07You're as smooth as a piece of sandpaper.
14:10But I'm here.
14:12Yes, and that is what I told David.
14:13And you were there for me in France,
14:15and I will never, ever forget that.
14:17I've, um...
14:19I've apologised to Anna, too.
14:22Really?
14:24Yeah.
14:26Oh.
14:28That's so nice of you.
14:30Nice?
14:32You make me sound like an old pillow.
14:34Well, you are a bit rumpled.
14:36So not exciting, like David?
14:38Oh, will you stop going on about David?
14:41Or George.
14:43How many times?
14:45I am with you, Ian,
14:47and I wouldn't change it for the world.
14:49I mean, no, you are not the most romantic person in the world,
14:52but you're here, and that's all that matters.
14:54What does that mean?
14:56Not the most romantic?
14:58Well, it's just you, isn't it?
15:00I mean, you know, like the other day.
15:02Uh...
15:04So, do you fancy getting married, then?
15:06Well, I didn't say it quite like that.
15:08Well, almost, you know.
15:10I mean, I wouldn't expect fireworks on the Thames, but...
15:13I might surprise you one of these days.
15:15Obviously, it won't be fireworks. It costs £10 a day.
15:18Don't tell me.
15:20Night in the Vic?
15:22A packet of pork scratchings?
15:24Cheap bottle of plonk?
15:26Surprise!
15:28Here, take a look at this ring I picked up from an old mate in Hatton Garden.
15:30I mean, look, that would be nice, but...
15:33Oh, just ignore me.
15:35I don't know what I'm saying.
15:37Anyway,
15:39who needs butterflies in the stomachs at our age?
15:42I just can't believe that you think I'm like Joe.
15:45I don't. It just come out wrong.
15:47I'm used to a numbing alike.
15:49I'm sorry, darling.
15:51If I could take it back, I would, in a heartbeat.
15:53But what I can't believe is that you never told me about Cindy Beale.
15:57Have you seen her?
15:59Yeah, he gave me a heart attack.
16:01Oh, don't be such a drunk.
16:03She was dead. I thought she was dead.
16:05No wonder I couldn't find you. You've been sniffing around her again.
16:07I wasn't sniffing around anyone.
16:09We were just catching up, that's all.
16:12Is that what you call it these days?
16:14I wouldn't have had to do if you'd have told me something.
16:16Oh, I've had other things on my mind, like my sister being in prison, remember?
16:20And if you were so bothered about catching up on the local gossip,
16:23you could have come to me and asked me, or other members of your family.
16:26All right, all right, all right.
16:31And what about Mum? You haven't even mentioned her.
16:35How is she?
16:36All the better for you, not being in her life.
16:38Oh, charming.
16:40Yeah, I was seeing as you broke her heart.
16:42Actually, darling, that was the other way round.
16:44Anyway, what are we talking about this for?
16:46That is history.
16:48What about Cindy? What, you hoping she's a bit more of the here and now?
16:52You're my here and now.
16:55Well, you let Bruce go and you watch him drive away.
16:58Because if you carry on like this, it'll be you in the prison cell, not just Sonia.
17:03I was thinking of you.
17:04I was thinking of you.
17:08Look, I know.
17:10I know, I'm everything you say I am.
17:13I wasn't around and I should have been.
17:15Well, I am now, so please, give me a chance.
17:20Are you here for the long haul?
17:25You're not going to run off again?
17:27No.
17:29Here to the end?
17:31I am.
17:35As for Cindy,
17:37come on.
17:39She ain't changed a bit, has she?
17:41What do you mean?
17:43When I saw Kathy, she was filling me in like, you know.
17:46Things are never simple where that one's concerned, are they?
17:49Well, yeah, do you mean George?
17:53George?
17:55You know, her ex-husband.
17:57She got married?
17:59She never said.
18:01They had two kids together.
18:02Again?
18:03Yeah.
18:05God, blimey.
18:07She ain't let the grass grow, is she?
18:09So is he local, then, this George?
18:13He's the landlord of the Vic.
18:16Go on, let me teach you how to do it, really.
18:19Absolutely not.
18:20Let me.
18:21I'll fall.
18:22Yes, I will.
18:23I won't let you fall.
18:24I won't.
18:26I haven't heard that for a while.
18:28You're laughing.
18:30Yeah, well, I've just been teaching Amy some tips.
18:32And telling me all the good things about being in a wheelchair.
18:36Like, you're always first in the queue at theme parks.
18:39Yeah, and your shoes always stay looking fresh.
18:42And having a blue badge is great for parking.
18:46And wheeling around in that thing all day is really going to build up your arm muscles.
18:49I can't wait for Denzel to challenge me to an arm wrestle.
18:52I think I could take you on, Dad, as well.
18:54Yeah, well, you ain't going to be in that for a while, are you?
18:57I mean, before you know it, you're going to be out, back to normal, running around.
19:00Dad.
19:03What?
19:06Paddy knows what I'm talking about, don't you?
19:09Yeah.
19:10Well, it's not always going to be doom and gloom, right?
19:13Right.
19:15I'll clear this.
19:23You sort your football out?
19:27Zane and Luca, you was waiting for them in the cav.
19:29Oh, yeah, they didn't show.
19:31I had to get talking to Denzel, though.
19:34Tommy.
19:35Can we do a trade?
19:37A trade?
19:38Yeah, um, fool's always gone on about it.
19:40Makes the world go round, he reckons.
19:43It's Denzel's birthday tomorrow.
19:45And he's having a party.
19:46Please, can I go?
19:47I'll do all the washing up and I'll take out the bins.
19:49Right, so you do a few chores and I'll let you stay out late on a school night.
19:52Well, that's the point about a trade.
19:54There's winners and losers.
19:56Right, that makes me a loser.
19:58Yeah, but maybe next time you'll win.
19:59Ups and downs.
20:00Cheers, Mum.
20:01I haven't said you can yet.
20:03But you'll think about it.
20:06Kathy came to see me earlier.
20:08If I'm going to be out at Denzel's party tomorrow, I should probably have an early night.
20:12Tommy, sit down for a minute.
20:13Don't you get it?
20:15It's a trade.
20:16Me going to Denzel's birthday makes me a winner.
20:19Me going to bed now makes you one.
20:20Don't you get it?
20:22Don't you understand anything at all?
20:30Cheers.
20:32So, ten years.
20:33Yeah?
20:34Yeah, and I ain't set foot round here since.
20:37Is the landlord around?
20:39Always like to come and say hello to the new one when I'm back.
20:41Excuse me.
20:42Landlady, Elaine.
20:45Nice to meet you.
20:46My fiancé, George, is out with his brother at a car show.
20:50He'll be back soon.
20:51You must see a fair few changes then.
20:54Not really.
20:55This place ain't changed that much.
20:57Same gross wallpaper.
20:58Yeah, probably same gross furniture and all.
21:01Definitely some of the same gross punters.
21:05Yeah.
21:06Ian told me you both made up.
21:07Just wanted to say how pleased I am.
21:09It was a surprise.
21:11Might not be the only one, neither, from what I've been hearing.
21:14I like your old friend, by the way.
21:16It's fun.
21:20What are you doing?
21:21Why don't you mention George and your girls?
21:23Why should I?
21:25Well, it's just a bit weird, that's all.
21:26We have this big update.
21:28You tell them about Ian,
21:29and this major league criminal you're on the run from.
21:31But you fail to mention your ex-husband,
21:33who only lives 20 feet over the road.
21:35I think the key word is ex.
21:37He seems like a proper fella, from all I've been hearing.
21:39Don't.
21:41What?
21:42I don't want you having a poppy here.
21:44I haven't mentioned Ian.
21:45Oh, I don't think I don't know what you've been up to earlier.
21:48You poison, dire little dicks.
21:50Ooh.
21:51Touched a raw nerve, did I?
21:52No.
21:53I just don't appreciate you having a go at me.
21:55I don't appreciate you having a go at the man that I live with.
21:58You're part of her life, right?
22:00From now on, yes.
22:03Didn't stop you, though, did it?
22:04Having that little look elsewhere, 28 years ago.
22:09You and I were a mistake.
22:11And how many mistakes have you made in your life?
22:13The difference is, I learned from mine.
22:25Oh.
22:30Doom and gloom.
22:32That's what you think when you look at me, isn't it?
22:36I was talking about Amy.
22:37Yeah, I know.
22:38And I know it was probably an unfortunate turn of phrasing, but...
22:42But this is my life, Dad.
22:45And I wish it wasn't, but it is.
22:47And I cope, but when I hear you talk about things like that,
22:50it just makes it that little bit harder.
22:52I hope you're overreacting.
22:53Amy didn't think so.
22:54She was literally cringing.
22:55Yeah, well, it's not great, is it?
22:57I'm sure you'd want to be any other normal 26-year-old girl.
22:59This is my normal, and it has been
23:01ever since I got caught in the middle of one of your private wars.
23:04Yeah, but you're twisting everything now, I'm saying.
23:06And I can't change it. And I live with it.
23:08But when I hear you say,
23:09oh, don't worry, you won't end up like your sister...
23:12I didn't say that, neither, did I?
23:13Yeah, well, it sounded a lot like it to me.
23:15Oh, all right, let's do it.
23:16Go on, let's have a little pity party for Penny.
23:18Poor old Penny.
23:19I don't mean it like that.
23:20And you want to talk about mistakes?
23:23Amy wouldn't be in that wheelchair if it wasn't for you,
23:25in the first place.
23:26That wasn't my mistake.
23:27Yeah, and Lauren, she's in a terrible way.
23:29That wasn't my fault either.
23:30So, yeah, people make mistakes, all right?
23:31Bad things happen, just get over it.
23:33And Amy can.
23:35And so can Lauren.
23:37And I'm the only one that can't.
23:39But, yeah, poor old Penny throwing herself another pity party.
23:44Look, I'm sorry, OK?
23:48Who am I to lecture you on how to live your life?
23:50Bianca said it, and she was right.
23:52I've made a big enough mess of my own...
23:54David.
23:55..but I'm going to anyway.
24:00Because of all that, because of the mistakes I've made,
24:03and, yeah, because of me and you, because of what we had,
24:06because of what we've been through,
24:08because of what we've been through,
24:10and, yeah, because of me and you, because of what we had.
24:12Yeah, a fat lot of good it did me.
24:14So I know, Cindy.
24:16I know what works for you and what doesn't.
24:19And Ian isn't it.
24:21He wasn't then and he never will be.
24:23Didn't we prove that?
24:25No.
24:26It just opened my eyes,
24:28made me realise what was important.
24:31And that's not a quick fumble with a chancer in a cheap suit.
24:35It's a man who cares about his family,
24:37who keeps them together,
24:39and that is what Ian has done.
24:41And that's why what we've got is real and it's lasting.
24:44Yeah, but it ain't and it won't.
24:46I told you, all it took...
24:48Yeah, yeah, yeah, one phone call.
24:50That's only cos he's always been desperate as far as you're concerned.
24:52Oh, desperate?
24:54And what about me when I was desperate?
24:57Waterloo Station, remember that?
25:00When I'm standing there holding two kids,
25:02begging you to come with me,
25:04to start a new life together, something real, something lasting.
25:08And do you know what you said to me?
25:11I'll let you down.
25:13It's what I do.
25:15It's what I always do.
25:18Do you know what I remember most?
25:20Your parting shot.
25:22I was standing there, sobbing like I was a kid,
25:26never mind Stephen or Peter.
25:29And you know what you said?
25:32Take care.
25:34Take care.
25:37I have never felt so alone in my entire life, David,
25:42and I never want to feel that way again.
25:48Cindy?
25:50Mum. Mum, it's Ian.
25:52Is he all right? I just need to come see Ian.
25:54What's happened?
25:56Ian? What's going on?
25:58Oh, Cindy, Cindy, with this ring so fine,
26:01I'm asking, asking, how will you be mine?
26:05Oh, Cindy, Cindy, please, oh, won't you say yes to me
26:10on this special day?
26:12Yes. Yes, I will.
26:15On this special day.
26:19Yay!
26:35Yay!
27:05Yay!
