00:30Oh, wakey, wakey. Put those on. Clean up time.
00:41Mum? Mum?
00:55I think she's dead.
00:56Oh, I forgot it, really. She's not dead, she's just wasted.
01:01Go away.
01:02Oh, grab a bin bag.
01:03Wow, that one's like a bunch of chimpanzees going berserk.
01:09Flippin' heck. Fair play. Lydia said you were all proper going for it, eh?
01:16Where's your penny, Vinnie?
01:17What happened to you?
01:18Ended up with Belle and Cain. Just having a little chat.
01:19Hey, you had a chat with our Cain and it lasted all evening.
01:26Please, can you all be quiet?
01:28Oh, she says that now.
01:30What's that supposed to mean?
01:32You talking in this meepo, right?
01:34Yeah, talking about you and Paddy. Sex stuff that I shouldn't hear.
01:38You'll get over it.
01:39Any chance of a brew?
01:40Proper send-off all in all, eh? Boozing and scrapping, scrapping and boozing. Shall someone
01:48check on Zina?
01:49No.
01:50And if she shows her face again, I'm gonna set our Lydia on it.
02:18Hey.
02:19Hey.
02:20When did you get back?
02:21Um, been back a while.
02:22Drank the pub dry?
02:23Stayed in.
02:24Okay.
02:25Um, lots to talk about.
02:26Oh, go on, let's see.
02:27No.
02:28Oh, please. You look good in it.
02:29No.
02:30Oh, please. You look good in it.
02:31No.
02:32No.
02:33No.
02:34No.
02:35No.
02:36No.
02:37No.
02:38No.
02:39No.
02:40No.
02:41No.
02:42No.
02:43No.
02:44No.
02:45No.
02:46No.
02:47No.
02:48No.
02:49No.
02:50No.
02:51No.
02:52No.
02:53No.
02:54No.
02:55No.
02:56I look good in it.
02:57Like a young Zach. He was a handsome man as well.
03:03Some said I could keep it. Now it's mine. Don't know what to do with it.
03:24It's what you would have wanted. Come here, darling.
03:41Ta-da! What? Oh, right, yeah. Nice.
03:46So what's your prediction? Scammer?
03:50Wanted money. Hmm. Don't know, but I doubt it. Could be a big bill, maybe. Might have
03:57been trying to settle her debt before time ran out.
03:59Guess we'll find out. You know, you should leave all this with me.
04:04I don't know why you're putting yourself through it. I mean, anything to do with Ellen, it
04:07always ends up in tears. Is there something you're not telling me?
04:11No. I'm not cancelling in case I get my feelings
04:15hurt. You don't have to. Just send me in first
04:18in case there's any trouble. Like a canary?
04:22I'm trying to be helpful. I'm sorry, you are. It's just, if you only
04:26think someone might have been dipping into my inheritance, it would be weird if I didn't
04:29show some interest. Besides, I am interested.
04:49Winnie! Winnie, your lady friend's here.
04:54What's that? It's for you. Pie. Homemade. In case
04:59nobody wants to cook tonight. Thank you.
05:02It's corned beef and onion. When did you make it? 1970s? Or is this what
05:06you lot are eating at Big House? Well, I just thought, comfort food.
05:09Sure, it's gonna be lovely. Gabby's made us a pie.
05:13Oi, nice one. Well, I didn't actually make it.
05:16You just said it were homemade. Yeah, I got Victoria to do it. I can't actually
05:19work the oven. They have corned beef at the high end, do
05:23they? Or they just save it especially for us dingles?
05:25I just see he's in here now. It is the thought that counts.
05:28Hiya, Gabs. Hey.
05:30Looking for glue. What's that?
05:33It's the marker for saxscrape. Oh, really? What, you're doing it yourself?
05:38Well, it's more from the heart, isn't it? When you make it with your hands.
05:41Oh, um, can I help? Are you any good at woodwork?
05:45What do you think? Probably not.
05:47Well, we'll take a seat when they're finished, then we'll go for a walk.
05:51Oh, no, no, not there. Oh, no, Gabby, that's my uncle's axe chair.
05:56Hey, you sit down where you want. Don't stand on ceremony. That's what my dad would have said.
06:03Come on through. Here, let me take your coat.
06:06Oh, thank you. Have a seat.
06:11Listen, are you sure you don't want to leave it with me?
06:14I'm right, aren't I? You don't need Ruby now?
06:17Free to go.
06:19I mean, it's up to you, obviously, but I just thought I was going to deal with it.
06:23I've scheduled time away from work and everything.
06:26My husband's pencilled in his grieving wife for a lunchtime meeting.
06:30So, I should probably see a copy of the will.
06:33We can talk about that. Talk about it?
06:36I thought it was all straightforward. I'm a bit curious now.
06:40Nothing is entirely straightforward when it comes to families and money.
06:44Do you want some coffee? Yes, please.
06:47There you go. You can make yourself useful.
06:56Oh, I know her. Harriet used to have her picture on the wall.
06:59They were family.
07:02Mr James. Mr Carl.
07:05Edna.
07:07She used to run the office. Ran the company, really.
07:10Yeah.
07:13Me. Me brothers.
07:16Me dad.
07:18And I think... Yeah.
07:21Here it is.
07:24We used to do a bit of everything in those days.
07:27Waste management, plant hire, property,
07:31and lots of squabbling.
07:34Great squabbling.
07:37I think...
07:39Emmerdale Hortledge came along in 2009.
07:45Me, me brother.
07:48A few vans.
07:50Sorry, I... I didn't really think about all that.
07:54No.
07:56Course you didn't.
07:58I'm just supposed to put my feelings aside and weigh the numbers.
08:05Look, you're a really good person, Jimmy, with a big heart,
08:10but the business is failing.
08:13Just like King and Sons.
08:16I mean, where would you be if you'd have kept hold of that?
08:21Your memories are yours to keep.
08:25But talk to Caleb, eh?
08:28See what he's got to offer.
08:30If it's not enough, tell him where to go.
08:35I'll talk to him.
08:41Ooh.
08:43Still taking a lot of getting used to, that's for sure.
08:46But, you know, if it's good enough for Gabby,
08:48I don't see why I shouldn't.
08:50She probably had an idea.
08:52Yeah, well, the timing could have been better.
08:54One minute she's here handing me this pov pie,
08:56next minute she's sitting in my uncle's next chair.
08:58I know. She's lovely.
09:00I just don't believe it.
09:02She's lovely.
09:03I just don't think that me and her are on the same...
09:05Wavelength? ..planet.
09:07Oi, be nice. I have to be, don't I?
09:09Cos I've been, he's obsessed with her.
09:11Oh, my head does feel like it's being used as a trampoline.
09:16But...
09:17Hey.
09:20It's what my uncle's hat would have wanted.
09:27Oh, I know.
09:30It were a lot for you yesterday, weren't it?
09:32Did you, Harkini and Sammy, put the world to rights?
09:36I just keep thinking that I should have gone to see him.
09:39When he got ill.
09:41It was my last chance and I just shouldn't have let Cain tell me what to do.
09:44Yeah, but your dad didn't want you fussing, you know.
09:47He knew that you had a lot to cope with.
09:50Like what?
09:53I don't know.
09:55You know, life and...and stuff.
09:58What stuff?
10:00What, Dad knew something was wrong?
10:02Did you tell him about Tom?
10:04No! Mandy?
10:05No, I want the one that were up there!
10:07Cain? Cain's told him?
10:09I don't know the details, but, no, Sammy, he just mentioned...
10:12I spent last night with a pair of them
10:14and I really felt like we were being honest with each other.
10:17Sorry.
10:18No, Belle, I'm sorry, cos you were never meant to...
10:21KNOCK AT DOOR
10:23Pick up.
10:28This makes no sense.
10:30It's not possible.
10:32I understand. It must be a shock.
10:34It's not a shock. It's not...
10:37I...I don't get it.
10:39Does this mean there were meetings behind my back?
10:41Steph's your eldest.
10:43I did everything to keep them apart. I didn't want any of...
10:47I didn't want any of my mum's poison rubbing off on her.
10:50Ruby, what...
10:51It's all gone to Steph.
10:53She's left her everything.
10:55I don't understand. How long did she know?
10:58She didn't discuss any of this with me.
11:01My name was mentioned once.
11:03As co-executor and trustee. Why? Why even bother?
11:07What do you mean?
11:08She wanted me to hold the estate in trust,
11:10pay all the bills and make sure everything else goes to Stephanie.
11:14She must have wanted to make sure that I knew that she knew.
11:18Knew...knew what?
11:19About Steph.
11:21But why?
11:22I knew that this would make you upset.
11:24What is this, some kind of weird apology?
11:27Her way of saying sorry?
11:30Or what, some kind of attack from beyond the grave?
11:33Shall we stop?
11:34No, I just... I need some air.
11:37Can you deal with the rest of this, please?
11:39Yeah. Yeah, of course. Don't worry.
11:41We could just take a break, come back to it.
11:44No.
11:47I think she's had enough.
11:49I do still need to ask about the payments on the bank statement, though.
11:54Thrax Logistics.
11:57Any idea whose account that might be?
11:59It's a significant sum of money,
12:01paid from Helen's account just before she died.
12:06I've absolutely no idea.
12:24HE SNIFFS
12:45Oh, yeah, Dad.
12:48HE SIGHS
12:50It's all quiet in village today.
12:54Lots of folk with sore heads.
12:58Reckon you'd have approved her yesterday, though.
13:05I know it's daft, but...
13:08..I'll keep coming and chatting to you...
13:11..when I can.
13:17HE SNIFFS
13:20HE SIGHS
13:45It's done. Looks all right.
13:49Why did you and Cain lie to me last night?
13:52Eh? About Dad.
13:54He knew about Tom.
13:56Oh, come on, pal.
13:59You know what he were like.
14:01He could sniff out trouble like a badger sniffs out a rodent.
14:06He asked him, Debs and Cain.
14:09They're not going to lie to him, are they?
14:12And what did he say?
14:15HE SIGHS
14:17You'd have to ask Cain, but...
14:19..from what I heard, he wanted to rip Tom's head off and plant it.
14:24And he would have done an' all if Cain hadn't have stopped him.
14:27Since when did Dad let people tell him what to do?
14:32Since he got ill.
14:36I bet he thought I was an idiot.
14:38No.
14:40Cain told him you wanted to handle things your own way.
14:43And he didn't want any more trouble.
14:47So do you think you'll get to the bottom of it?
14:49I'm beginning to doubt it. It'll get flagged in probate, but...
14:52Oh, great, that's all Ruby needs, more Woody.
14:55You know, she's been through a lot with all this.
14:57I'll make sure correspondence comes to both of you.
15:00That's what I was thinking.
15:02Do we need to bother Ruby with this at all?
15:05You're co-executors. It wouldn't really be ethical.
15:08Oh, yeah. Of course.
15:11Well, thanks for everything. It's appreciated.
15:21I've got some good news.
15:23She thinks that you think she's a snob.
15:26Can't I have a two-minute kip in me own salon?
15:30I just wanted you to get on, Mum.
15:35Ta-da!
15:38Ta-da!
15:40You kegs?
15:41No! I am free. Free as a bird.
15:44The weird thing is, it feels like someone's missing.
15:47Might try a little anklet.
15:48I thought you were going to see Gabby.
15:50Who's Gabby?
15:51Er, girlfriend.
15:52Going somewhere nice.
15:53Just her place.
15:54She live in the village?
15:55Shall we talk? Shall we get going?
15:57Oh, no, no, I'm interested.
15:58It's natural for me to be interested.
16:01I'm family.
16:02Just in the big house, as you come in.
16:05Big house, as in home farm?
16:08Nowhere.
16:09Nice work, fella.
16:11Me and Auntie Tina just need time to talk, all right?
16:14Mwah!
16:15See you again, honey!
16:18I thought I made myself clear.
16:20You stay out of this village!
16:21He seemed to like me.
16:23Tina, don't...
16:24And you don't get to tell me where I can and can't go!
16:27Especially now I've got interest round here.
16:30If you're banging on about the house again,
16:34my Uncle Zak, he made his wishes clear!
16:36Prove it!
16:38Belongs to family.
16:41And I'm family.
16:43Anyhow,
16:45who says we're just talking about the house?
16:49No, don't.
16:51Don't you dare...
16:52Bossing me around again.
16:53Tina, I'm talking...
16:54Maybe I've come for everything that's mine.
16:59Vinnie is such a sweet boy.
17:02Do you know what makes me sad?
17:04Thinking about everything I've missed out on.
17:07That is your fault!
17:08Doesn't matter.
17:09What's mine,
17:11is mine.
17:13My house,
17:16my son.
17:18No...
17:22Fiona,
17:23I'm sorry about before.
17:24No reason to be sorry.
17:26So did my husband help you solve the mystery?
17:28Not really.
17:29Oh.
17:30All right.
17:31Guess we'll never know.
17:32Well, let's hope HMRC see it that way.
17:35Well, they were only going to be bothered about a few grand.
17:37£100,000 is a lot of money to be paid into a shell account
17:41so close to somebody's death.
17:43£100,000?
17:44Mm-hmm.
17:46How close?
17:48It completed on the day she passed.
17:50Can you think of anyone she might have
17:54seen or talked to that day?
17:58You gave her a corned beef pie?
18:00I was trying to fit in.
18:02All right, so what next?
18:03Turn up in clogs?
18:05It's comfort food.
18:07My dad and gran used to make me it, but look,
18:09I'm a snob, no matter what I do.
18:11Right, have you any idea how much she drank last night?
18:13I mean, it's a wonder she's not in intensive care.
18:15I'm serious, Vinnie.
18:17I don't want your mum to hate me.
18:19What does she like, she can be?
18:20Maybe just, you know, don't overthink it, yeah?
18:23She's grieving and
18:24it's got all weird since this teen lady's shown up, so...
18:27You know, maybe invite her round for drinks.
18:29Just, you know, not ale and chip butters.
18:32We can make cocktails.
18:33No, darling, that is perfect.
18:36Call me, er...
18:47I never said thank you.
18:50Hmm?
18:52For taking over, sorting everything.
18:55Nothing to sort.
18:59Wasn't there some transaction or something
19:01she wanted to know about?
19:02Oh, yeah, it was a few grand, I think.
19:05It was probably some invoice or something.
19:08That work on the house.
19:09I don't know, it could have been anything.
19:13You're a liar.
19:17It was a hundred grand.
19:20Not a few grand.
19:22A hundred.
19:25And I think you've got it.
19:27Why would I have it?
19:28Stop lying to me!
19:35So,
19:37why
19:40would my dying mother
19:42give you a hundred thousand pounds?
19:44OK, Ruby.
19:49I knew she'd do something to hurt you, right?
19:51And I was right, wasn't I?
19:52Look what she did with the will.
19:54So you did it for me?
19:55I thought you deserved some inheritance from her.
19:57But it was more than that.
20:02I wanted to use it
20:03to invest in our future.
20:07So I thought
20:10I'd use the money
20:12to buy Jimmy's half of the haulage,
20:14make a success of it with a depot,
20:16and we'd be settled for life.
20:21Did my mum
20:23even say any of those things about me in the hospital
20:26that you said she did?
20:28No.
20:31You scumbag!
20:32Ruby.
20:33Shut up!
20:38I'm trying to get this straight in my head, so
20:41when I caught you lying
20:43that you'd not seen her at all
20:44and I asked you
20:46if there were any more lies,
20:49you lied to me again
20:50and you've carried on lying to me
20:53ever since, right?
20:54When she died
20:56this morning
20:57and just a few moments ago
20:58when I got back.
21:00It comes so naturally to you.
21:02Do it again. Go on.
21:03What?
21:04Just a few grand, I think.
21:07Probably some invoice or something.
21:08Say it. Say it!
21:10Oh my God!
21:14Right now, you're literally, literally making me feel sick.
21:17I am looking at you
21:18and I could actually throw up.
21:22For God's sake, Caleb!
21:26I know we both have our faults
21:28but at least we could say we knew each other
21:30and that was something.
21:33At least we'd have that.
21:36But
21:38you've shown your true face
21:39and this is just...
21:42I can't...
21:48I can't...
21:53And if you want to visit the village for yourself
21:56you can now book onto the Emmerdale Village Tour.
21:59Details are at emmerdalevillagetour.co.uk
22:03Coming up, there's a masked intruder in Weatherfield.
