00:30Oh, charming. What, I need a reason to talk to my husband now, do I? Yeah, um, does Yvonne
00:40want one of these?
00:41No, she's already gone, Mum.
00:42Yeah. Oh, Cain's on the phone. Do you want to say hi?
00:45Hiya, Cain. Mum, I said I do.
00:46Yeah, he doesn't even want his mum to make him a bacon butty. Are you driving? No, kids
00:54haven't been to school, no. Oh, OK. Well, look, make sure you give Debbie and Zak my
01:01love, yeah? All right, Dad, I love you. Bye.
01:06Everything all right, Mum?
01:08Yeah, just get some bread battered.
01:11All right. Isaac was nattering on about the tablet again earlier. I said we'd have another
01:16look for it later.
01:17Mum? Mum?
01:18Mum?
01:19Mum?
01:20Mum?
01:21Mum?
01:22Mum?
01:23Mum?
01:24Ow! Are you all right?
01:26I've got you. It's OK. Sit down there. Sit down there. You OK?
01:31Yeah, yeah.
01:32You just need some water.
01:36We could go down to the stream and then it'd be a natural walk.
01:39Yeah, we could, or you could go back inside and do the work shoes that your teacher sent
01:43you. Look, Lucas is doing this.
01:47So?
01:48Remy, will you please come inside and do your work? Will you stop leaving this door open?
01:53Do you know how much it costs to heat this house?
01:57Sorry.
01:58Why is everything so difficult?
01:59I'll talk to her later, OK?
02:00Hey, come on.
02:01Bad time, Pauline? I've got a land stew here looking for a home.
02:02Well, you didn't need to do that.
02:03I know how tough it can be with a little one. And that's why I'm here.
02:04I'm here to help you.
02:05I'm here to help you.
02:06I'm here to help you.
02:07I'm here to help you.
02:08I'm here to help you.
02:09I'm here to help you.
02:10I'm here to help you.
02:11I'm here to help you.
02:12I'm here to help you.
02:13I'm here to help you.
02:14I'm here to help you.
02:15I can never help you.
02:16I'm here to help you.
02:17I'm here to help you.
02:18I'm here to help you.
02:19I'm here to help you.
02:20You need to do that.
02:21I know how tough it can be with a little one.
02:22And that's when...
02:23I don't know how you're coping.
02:24You think we're coping?
02:25Thanks.
02:26That's a real help.
02:27Come in.
02:28Do you want any painkillers, Mum?
02:29Look, it's fine. I barely touched it.
02:30For God's sake, just see it.
02:36You were right and I was wrong.
02:37I can't be trusted.
02:38Oh, Mum, don't be like that.
02:42Why?
02:43It's the truth.
02:44Look, you can finish off your own breakfast.
02:47I'm gonna go for a lie-down.
02:49I assume you think I'm capable of doing that.
02:51PHONE RINGS
02:57What?
03:01Er, yeah, er, sorry, yeah, that's me.
03:09Right.
03:14Um...
03:17Er...
03:19I said I was gonna treat you.
03:20Well, I arrived first, so it's on me.
03:25OK.
03:28Oh.
03:29Thought you said it were getting better.
03:31It's gonna take a while.
03:34But it helps, knowing that I've got you by my side.
03:38You know, you are pretty amazing,
03:41putting up with all my baggage.
03:44And the accusations.
03:45False accusations, Tom.
03:47Why can't people just mind their own business?
03:49If only.
03:51You know what, let's forget about that. Let's just focus on us.
03:54I feel like we need a bit of a reset.
03:57So, a start over.
04:00With me taking you out on a proper date.
04:03Pick you up at lunchtime, say, 12?
04:06Yeah, OK, great.
04:07I'll take someone special.
04:09And then we can go pick up Esther
04:11and spend the afternoon together.
04:16You don't actually have to sit here waiting on me.
04:18Well, someone needs to be here. We agreed, remember?
04:25That was the hospital that called earlier.
04:27There's been a cancellation for the op.
04:29Oh, wow, and when for?
04:31Tomorrow.
04:34They want me to do a pre-op first thing,
04:37and I'm pretty much straight away, assuming I pass.
04:40Oh, that's brilliant, Mum.
04:42I mean, it's scary, too, obviously, but it's great news.
04:46Aye. For you and Mackenzie, maybe. No more babysitting.
04:49No, for you.
04:51And, look, it's got to be better than waiting months.
04:54And your surgeon, she knows what she's doing.
04:56Aye. And she knows all the risks.
04:59And made sure I knew them too.
05:01Well, she still thinks you should have it done, though.
05:04Perhaps she doesn't like me as much as I thought.
05:07I'm scared, Matty.
05:09I know.
05:12Have you, er... Have you spoken to Cain?
05:15No, there's no point.
05:18They just say, go ahead, the sooner the better.
05:22He doesn't want to accept that there could be problems, not really.
05:25Mum, he... he loves you.
05:28He just wants what's best for you, like... like me.
05:31What's with the sudden doubts?
05:33What's with the sudden doubts?
05:35I suppose it was easier when it was months away.
05:39It's like when you arrange a night out, but when it comes to it,
05:42you'd rather stop in instead of the sofa.
05:46This isn't a joke, Mum.
05:51Yeah.
05:52Come walk with me.
05:55No, please. It'll help me explain.
05:58Come on.
06:00It's all right for you, but you're not next to the bathroom
06:03listening to it drip all night.
06:05And it won't get any better for being ignored.
06:07No, no, I imagine not.
06:09Now, in fact, in my experience, once one washer goes...
06:12I hear you, Bear. I will call a plumber.
06:14A plumber for a few washers?
06:16Well, obviously, unless you want to step in.
06:18Oh, no, no, no. Slippery slope.
06:20Never get involved with other people's waterworks.
06:23You're such wise words.
06:25Now, what you need is an adjustable spanner, a screwdriver,
06:28or maybe an Allen key.
06:30I could just call Sam.
06:32I'm sure he wouldn't mind messing with my waterworks.
06:35Might take his mind off Sampson, too.
06:37Aye, right enough.
06:38Toot sweet, though, Liam.
06:40Toot sweet.
06:42Hey, Billy.
06:44Hi.
06:45How's he getting on?
06:47Yeah, yeah, he's good, thanks.
06:49Oh, better than Dad?
06:51It's just a work thing. Boxercise.
06:54I'm glad I'm a doctor.
06:59Hey.
07:01I was actually going to come and see you.
07:03You were right about the car.
07:05How bad?
07:06Vinnie gave me 200.
07:08Mostly out of pity, I reckon.
07:09Yeah, sorry.
07:11I'll keep my eyes peeled.
07:13And I know that the budget's not great,
07:15but as soon as everything's healed up for you,
07:17we'll get you some work up at the farm.
07:18It's not going to be enough.
07:19Yeah, but it's a start.
07:21And it's a heck of a lot better than doing something really, really stupid.
07:24Oh, terrific.
07:26Look, I have to.
07:27No, you really don't.
07:29Because whatever they're paying you, it's not worth it.
07:31It's for me, not the money.
07:33What?
07:34Forget about it. It's nothing.
07:35I've got to get Evan home.
07:49It's always so peaceful here.
07:51Yeah, it's beautiful.
07:54I just wish it didn't exist.
07:59She was so full of life, wasn't she?
08:02I mean, we should be jetting off to Rome or New York
08:04to see her latest exhibition.
08:06Yeah.
08:07Colonising, causing havoc at all the award ceremonies.
08:10Yeah.
08:12She was so happy.
08:15She'd gone through all the pain and horror
08:17and she had this whole world of opportunity
08:19right in front of her.
08:21Then it was over.
08:23Gone, just like that.
08:26That's how fragile life is.
08:29This is different, Mum.
08:32It's not, though.
08:34With this operation,
08:36everything can change in a heartbeat.
08:38And I can't let my kids be without their mum.
08:41I'd let Holly down
08:42and I don't want to let the rest of you down either.
08:46I know what it's like losing your mum,
08:48even if she was useless.
08:50We've all been through enough.
08:52You're not going to die, Mum.
08:54Mate...
08:55And you didn't even let Holly down.
08:57Not even close.
08:59You weren't there, son.
09:02I know how much she loved you.
09:04How much she'd be rooting for you.
09:06It's not that simple.
09:08It is, though.
09:10If Holly was here now, Mum,
09:12she'd want you to do everything you can to get better.
09:16You've never stopped on the sofa when a big night out's on offer,
09:19so don't start now.
09:23We should be getting back.
09:25In just a... just a few more minutes.
09:44You know I'm a terrible patient, right?
09:46Non-stop mourning and full of self-pity for weeks.
09:50Well, if that's a yes, you can mourn as much as you want, Mum.
09:58You don't have to knock.
09:59That would be a place for you here.
10:01Well, if I've got out to do it, although Kim is trying to...
10:04I'm not interested in whatever you and Kim are rowing about.
10:06Is she in?
10:07No.
10:08How's the kids?
10:09I'm not here for a catch-up.
10:11Can you just tell her that I came round?
10:13You don't actually want to spend time with her, do you?
10:15You do know what she did to me. This is not some petty falling out.
10:18It is, compared to what Evan's going through.
10:20Why? What's happened?
10:22No, nothing. I just... I meant his illness. Nothing new.
10:25Oh, good. So long as he's no worse.
10:28Can you ask her to phone me?
10:30Oh, fine. I'll do it myself.
10:32But what... what is it that you need? Maybe I can help.
10:35You're my daughter.
10:37I will always do whatever I can for you and the kids.
10:41At least let me help them.
10:43Things are a bit tight.
10:45It's just we've got to keep the house warm.
10:48For Evan, it's just having a knock-on effect on stuff.
10:52Why didn't you say?
10:54Why do you think?
10:56But I can't keep pretending it's going to be OK,
10:58not with Martel dropping off casseroles.
11:00I won't be complaining about that.
11:02I should get him to drop one off here.
11:04Sorry.
11:06Look, I'll get you the cash.
11:08What do you need? A couple of grand?
11:10Five?
11:12I'll pay you back. It's for a car.
11:17I'll sort it. I promise.
11:27Right, we'll have a brew and then we'll check that you've got everything.
11:30What time do we need to be at the hospital tomorrow?
11:32Not until the morning, 7am.
11:34Right, fine. I'll see if Amy can take the day off,
11:36unless you want it in the morning.
11:38I'll see if Amy can take the day off,
11:40unless you wanted Kyle and Isaac to come with us.
11:42What? No!
11:44I don't even want them knowing about it yet.
11:46Mum, you can't keep it quiet.
11:48You're going to be in hospital for, what, a week?
11:50A few days. Look, can you just slow down?
11:58Look, I'm sorry, Mum, but you just...
12:01You do need to talk to them.
12:03After?
12:05They'll only fuss and worry,
12:07and you're doing enough of that for the three of you.
12:09Besides, if I tell them, Kyle will be straight on to Cain.
12:12Oh, you're not serious?
12:14Well, I'm not telling them over the phone.
12:16He'd come racing down here from Aberdeen
12:18and he'd probably put himself in a ditch while he's at it.
12:21Mum... It's not up for discussion, Matty.
12:23Right, and what about Mackenzie? Or is that a stupid question?
12:27No-one needs to know until it's done.
12:29Look, you can drop me at the hospital
12:31and be back here in time to do the breakfast and the PE kits
12:34and whatever else is needed.
12:36Mum, I'm not just dumping you and running.
12:38Well, I won't be going at all if you keep being difficult.
12:41Right, OK, fine. Well, I'm telling Amy,
12:43because unlike you and Cain, we don't do secrets.
12:45All right. What secrets are these, then?
12:48Ha-ha! Oi!
12:50How you doing?
12:52Come on.
13:05Yeah, well, it's a good job you called.
13:07They were all but perished.
13:09I'll, er, sort the kitchen one out and we'll be done.
13:13Oh, I thought it was just the, er... The bathroom was the problem.
13:16Yeah, Bea's right, though. Once one goes...
13:19Oh, don't tell him that.
13:21You know, erm, I meant what I said yesterday.
13:24About you being a good dad.
13:28Right.
13:30And I'm sure Samson will soon go into the swing of things
13:33and start opening up to you.
13:35No offence, Doc, but do you know how about being inside?
13:39No.
13:40Well, I wish I didn't either.
13:42Then I could fall myself into thinking everything's going to be all right.
13:46Perhaps it will.
13:48But you're right, it's not exactly my, er, specialist subject.
13:53Do you fancy a cuppa? I remembered to fill up the kettle before we started.
13:56No, I'm all right.
14:00It feels like, er...
14:03..he's building these walls, shutting me out.
14:06Or maybe just learning to cope.
14:09He doesn't want anything to do with me.
14:12And I don't blame him.
14:14Who'd want this as a dad?
14:16Oh.
14:18Sam, I'm sorry.
14:19I've left my wrench upstairs.
14:21Go on, then, what have I missed?
14:23Well, it's here now, Mum.
14:24What's the problem?
14:25There isn't one.
14:27Can you just leave me to do things, please, Matty?
14:30I just want a bit of normality.
14:32Right, come on, you're getting me worried now.
14:35Look, Mum's, er, got, erm...
14:39..she's got a burn on her arm.
14:41Yeah, I just had another absinthe seizure.
14:44Yeah, while she was cooking.
14:45Yeah, but I'm fine. Look, it's nothing.
14:47Anyway, how come you're here?
14:50When I spoke to you earlier, you were in Aberdeen, so...
14:53Well, I was on my way down. I wanted to surprise you.
14:56As if I'm not confused enough.
14:58Oh, sorry, I wasn't thinking.
15:01Anyway, Dad's doing a lot better.
15:04Hope with the larks this morning, driving our Debs nuts.
15:07HE CHUCKLES
15:08Practically bullied me into coming home.
15:10Oh, and you listened.
15:12That's good.
15:14Can you go and check on the cars?
15:16The cars? Cows.
15:18You know what I mean? Just...
15:20Can you just give us a bit of space?
15:28Stop arguing with me. I'm buying you a drink.
15:31Two pints, please, Peter. I'll get these.
15:33No, thanks.
15:34How's them grandkids of mine?
15:36This is a bad idea. I'm going home.
15:38No, no, it's all right. I'm done now, anyway.
15:41You stay. You deserve a break.
15:43Been in a scrap.
15:45Accident at work.
15:47Oh. Well, go on, I'll bring your pints over.
15:50Thanks.
15:54You can go into Leeds if you like.
15:56I just feel like it's way more special here.
15:58What's the point in showing you off in a place full of strangers?
16:01Look, Tom, I'm not a prize pony.
16:03Anyway, we're in here all the time.
16:05You're right, I'm sorry. I just wanted to do something nice for you.
16:09But I got up thinking that the more time we spend in here,
16:13the more normal it'll be for everyone.
16:15And that way, people will be used to the fact that we're a couple,
16:18whether they like it or not.
16:21There you go, lad. Thank you.
16:23Cheers.
16:26So when is it, the big fight?
16:28You're not going to try and talk me out of it, then?
16:31I would if I thought you'd listen.
16:34But if you want me to keep my mouth shut around dawn,
16:37then I need to know what's going on.
16:39I'm serious, Billy.
16:40You're not in the right headspace and it could get way worse.
16:43So what if it does?
16:45Look, at least I'm actually doing something.
16:48What does that mean?
16:49I feel useless.
16:51I just want to be a good dad, like the best I can be,
16:54but with Evan being so ill, I can't even help my boy.
16:58So you're punishing yourself?
17:00That's not what it is.
17:01It's a way for me to escape reality, I guess.
17:04It's the only thing I have control over.
17:06Surely that would depend on who you were fighting.
17:08No, it doesn't matter.
17:10Because I'm the one who's stepping up, getting in the ring.
17:15And when I'm in there, there's nothing else I can think about.
17:20This is helping me deal with the worst thing
17:22that's ever happened to me.
17:24So I'm begging you, please, just keep this to yourself.
17:29You found it.
17:30Sorry, the box is...
17:33Shouldn't have been looking.
17:34No, it's only a tool box.
17:38None of this is your fault, you know?
17:41Samson's just going to have to find the best way he can
17:43of getting through it.
17:44As long as you know he is a good lad, and that's down to you.
17:47I know.
17:48I know.
17:49I know.
17:50I know.
17:51I know.
17:52I know.
17:53I know.
17:54I know.
17:55I know.
17:56I know.
17:57And that's down to you.
17:58Don't know about that.
17:59Well, I do.
18:02Right then, kitchen tap.
18:04Yeah.
18:07And forget the tea.
18:09I'm buying you a pint as soon as we're finished.
18:11Thanks, Doc, but I'm going to take our bell snaring.
18:15Snaring?
18:16Yeah, I was thinking about it upstairs.
18:18She's never been before, as far as I'm aware.
18:20As soon as I can't do out for Samson,
18:22at least I can help her take her mind off everything.
18:25I still owe you a pint, though.
18:27I could see you down the pub later, after you're done...
18:30snaring.
18:32You're on.
18:38You know, Kyle and Isaac are going to be so excited to see you.
18:42We really missed you.
18:43I haven't been gone that long. I spoke to them plenty.
18:46So what's going on between you and Matty?
18:48Nothing.
18:49Well, we're just...
18:50We're getting on each other's nerves, you know.
18:52I mean, it's not his fault.
18:55I don't like someone hovering over me all the time.
18:57Well, you've got no choice.
18:59Not until you have the operation.
19:01Yeah.
19:03Um, about that...
19:05Don't say you've changed your mind again.
19:08No, it's just a bit overwhelming, you know, thinking about it.
19:11Then don't.
19:12Not if he's stressing you out.
19:14Let's cross bridges when we get to him.
19:18You'll be OK on your own while I go and have a shower.
19:20Yeah, sure.
19:26PHONE VIBRATES
19:30Oh!
19:33Hey, Debbie.
19:34Yeah, your dad got back home safely, but it's just...
19:38Debbie?
19:39What is it? What's wrong?
19:45He's napping again.
19:47How was he on his walk?
19:48Slept through that, too.
19:50But Jenny did say that he'd be tired,
19:52so let's try not to worry.
19:56I know I've been horrible to live with recently.
19:59Yeah, well, we've both been shattered.
20:01Oh, right, so you're not denying it, then?
20:04Look, Dawn, I've not been myself either, so...
20:08Well, we should be pulling together.
20:10Not sniping at each other.
20:12Not sleeping in separate rooms.
20:15Sorry.
20:16Door was open.
20:17Didn't want to disturb sleeping babies.
20:19Or parents.
20:21I wish.
20:22I wish.
20:32Stop looking so worried. I've thought it all through.
20:35And?
20:37And I get it.
20:38Not the fighting part, but the feeling powerless bit.
20:42It's exactly how I felt when Ruben was sick.
20:45I mean, it's not exactly the same, obviously.
20:47So you're not going to say anything?
20:49No.
20:50Thanks.
20:52But I'm not letting you do this on your own.
20:55Especially not after last time.
20:57You need someone looking out for you.
20:59And for keeping you in shape.
21:01You'll be spitting nails, kid.
21:03You'll be eating lightning and...
21:06What? You've never seen Rocky?
21:08Wow.
21:09OK, we've got a lot of work to do, then.
21:16That's better.
21:17Didn't feel like everyone this morning.
21:22What's up?
21:23Yeah, come on, let me in now.
21:25Do we not have another seizure?
21:27No, it's not me. It's...
21:30Debbie phoned.
21:33I'm so sorry, darling, but...
21:35It's Zak.
21:37He's died.
21:40I'm so sorry.
21:42I'm so sorry.
