00:00I was asleep.
00:27You got me out of bed.
00:28I ought to deck you after what you did to me.
00:31Just a minute, I didn't do anything to you.
00:33You got drunk, you got arrested, you got thrown into jail.
00:36You sent me over to Germany in the first place, didn't you?
00:40Foreign trips were part of your job, remember?
00:43Oh, don't give me that.
00:44You were trying to split me and Maggie up, weren't you?
00:46Did I succeed?
00:48You're a cow.
00:49You finished anyway. The relationship was going nowhere.
00:51What is all the noise?
00:56What the hell are you doing here?
00:57I came to give your sister a piece of my mind.
01:00Get out.
01:01I haven't finished yet.
01:02Either you leave or I call the police.
01:04No.
01:05She's got something to say, I want to hear it.
01:07Have you any idea how much it cost to get that lorry back from Germany?
01:10Don't expect sympathy.
01:11She couldn't even spare 500 quid to get me out of prison.
01:15That is enough.
01:15I'm going to call the police.
01:16No, I haven't had my say yet.
01:19Oh, for God's sake, Zoe.
01:20She's history, a fantasy about having a bit of rough.
01:24Go to bed, Chris, please.
01:27Please.
01:27I'm warning you, if there's any trouble...
01:33There won't be any trouble.
01:37Will there.
01:37Sorry, love.
01:48Did it wake you when I went out?
01:50No, no.
01:51I rolled over in bed and you weren't there.
01:53Oh, I went to have a look at that sick you.
01:55I wasn't sure she'd make it through the night.
01:57Will she?
01:58I think she got the injection just in time.
02:00Good.
02:03Here you go.
02:05Thanks.
02:08Didn't have to, you know.
02:10I wanted to.
02:13Thanks.
02:14It's bad enough being in prison, but when you can hardly speak the language,
02:17have you any idea what that's like?
02:19Must have been dreadful.
02:21Had plenty of offers, you know, to make life easier.
02:24Don't need to speak German to understand them.
02:27So what did you do?
02:28Smacked them in the mouth, mostly.
02:31It wasn't funny, Zoe.
02:33I couldn't believe it when Maggie told me you wouldn't pay the fine.
02:38For what it's worth, I'm not proud of what I did.
02:42Is that supposed to make me feel better?
02:44I thought you were using me, taking me for granted.
02:48Oh, ask Zoe for the money. She'll pay. She's loaded.
02:50I thought you liked me.
02:52And I thought I was more to you than a bank account.
02:55Yeah, well, it seems we were both wrong, doesn't it?
02:58What are you doing?
02:59I'm going. Maybe I shouldn't have come.
03:00Have you got a car?
03:01I'm hitching.
03:03Well, you'll never get a lift at this time of night.
03:07Sleep here. There's plenty of room.
03:10You freeze to death out there.
03:14I don't want a room. I'll crash down here.
03:16Please yourself.
03:19I don't know about you.
03:20All I could do with a coffee.
03:22Go on, then.
03:24Zoe, you couldn't make us a sandwich, could you? I'm starving.
03:28No problem.
03:34Oh, you feel cold.
03:35I am. I'm freezing.
03:38Snuggle up. Get warm.
03:42Is that better?
03:43Yeah. Thanks.
03:45You get some sleep. You must be worn out.
03:49Night.
03:50Night.
03:50After I left prison, I stayed in Germany. Got a job. Cleaning. Tried to get me head together.
04:02And did you?
04:04I needed to sort out how I felt about Maggie. I didn't want to be with her anymore.
04:09Took a little bit of time to face up to that.
04:12And you haven't been in touch since you got back?
04:13No, I've been travelling. Got off the ferry 12 hours ago. Came straight here.
04:19I see.
04:21I won't be getting back in touch with her.
04:24I was going to put the whole thing behind me. I didn't want to see her again. I didn't want to see you again.
04:30What made you change your mind?
04:32I got a lift from a guy who dropped me off near the village.
04:36Thought I'd come and shout at you.
04:39How did you know I was here?
04:40I went to the cottage. Paddy told me you'd moved.
04:43Did he tell you anything else?
04:44Like what?
04:46A lot's happened to me since you went away.
04:48I can see that.
04:51Why do you want a place like this for anyway?
04:54I bought this house because it used to be my dad's. Take family home.
05:03You're tired. You need to get some sleep.
05:06Is that the time?
05:08We'll talk later, yeah?
05:09Yeah.
05:13Hi.
05:14Shouldn't you be at school by now?
05:21No, it's a staff training day today. We're starting a bit later.
05:23See?
05:24Where are you off to?
05:25Home farm. Chris has brought Joseph a pony.
05:29It arrives this morning. I want to be there. He'll be really excited.
05:31I could go with you. I could phone in sick. You wouldn't miss much.
05:36Don't be silly, Graham. You can't skive off work.
05:38I've hardly seen Joseph since Rachel died. I'm very fond of him.
05:42I know, but after what they've been through, he and Chris need some time together.
05:45With people who are close to them.
05:59Have you got anything special planned today for Belle?
06:03Every day's special for you, isn't it? My little red rum.
06:08You've just got to sit there all day and watch her crawl about the place.
06:11Oh, you're not still mithering about what that health visitor said, are you?
06:15She has to the point. I mean, now Belle can get about, you're going to have to keep your eye on her a bit more.
06:19Don't you trust me?
06:20Yes, but things have changed. You can't just bug her in a cot and forget all about her.
06:25Oh, you can't wrap her in cotton wool, neither.
06:28This house, it's like a big adventure playground for our Belle.
06:33From where she's sitting, it's full of excitement. It's like being on the moon, in a jungle.
06:40You get eaten alive in the jungle, Zach.
06:41I don't want to come the old soldier, Lisa, but I've already brought up four children,
06:46which is four more than you.
06:47I know that. But this time, things are different.
06:52We're bringing Belle up together. You and me.
06:56I couldn't bear it if anything happened to her.
06:58Oh, it won't. I promise you.
07:03Go on, get yourself off to her. Roy will be wondering what's happened to you.
07:10You think on.
07:11Oi.
07:16Don't worry.
07:24So what time did she leave?
07:25She didn't. Instead of talking most of the night, I left her to sleep.
07:30You must be mad after what she did to the firm.
07:31Not now, Chris. It's an important moment for Joseph, remember?
07:35He's had an attack of nerves. He won't get on.
07:38You've got all the gear on and everything, haven't you?
07:40Yeah, look at your hat.
07:40Joseph, are you going to show Daddy what a good rider you are?
07:44He's a lovely pony. There's nothing to worry about.
07:48Oh, come on, Joseph. It's just like a piggyback.
07:51Come on, Ben. You jump on. That's a lad.
07:55Hey, how's that?
07:59Look.
08:01Hey, look at that pony.
08:03He thinks I'm daft. He does.
08:05Wow.
08:06Oh, am I?
08:08Shall we go and say hello to him? Shall we?
08:10Oh, there we are.
08:14There we are.
08:15Hey.
08:17Not easy, would it?
08:23You're a man of hidden talents, Terry.
08:32Well done, Terry. You were brilliant.
08:35Oh, I'm just a big kid myself, really.
08:40You all right, Chris?
08:45Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.
08:48Sorry.
08:51Hello?
08:52It's Richie Carter, Mr. Tate.
08:54Yeah, I can be there about five o'clock, if that's okay.
08:57On my own, yeah.
08:59Great. I'll see you then. Bye-bye.
09:10Sarah, is something the matter?
09:15I don't know. I've just seen my car drive out the village.
09:18What do you mean it's been nicked?
09:19What? No, Lisa's been repairing it, and I just popped in to see when it will be ready.
09:23But she and Roy have gone to a breakdown. She left a note.
09:26Do you want me to call the police, then?
09:29What? I don't know who was driving it.
09:31I suppose one of them could have come back and taken it for a test run.
09:34Well, could go after it in Scottscar if you want.
09:36Is that a good idea?
09:38Well, if they have taken it for a test run, get them on the way back.
09:40If not, back to plan A.
09:42Must be so hard for you, Chris.
09:44Watching Joseph grow up and not be able to kick a ball around with him,
09:48go for walks, bike rides. Sort of things most dads take for granted.
09:52Are you trying to make me feel really miserable?
09:54No, quite the opposite. I think you're doing a great job.
09:58In fact, I was thinking on the way over here,
10:00you know, if we stayed married, we'd have probably had kids by now.
10:04There's no point thinking what, well, what might have been.
10:08The point is you'd have been a wonderful father. Wheelchair or no wheelchair.
10:14Well done, Joseph.
10:15Joseph, come on, come and see your dad.
10:24Daddy, daddy, that was brilliant.
10:26Hey, you enjoyed that.
10:29Do you want some breakfast?
10:45I've flushed him. It's slowing down now.
10:58Ashley, what is going on?
11:17I don't understand.
11:32I told Lisa a few days ago I was on the lookout for a new car.
11:35She said she'd keep her eyes open for me.
11:37Yeah, I understand that, but there's obviously a mistake.
11:41You've picked up the wrong one. This is my car.
11:44Jack told Lisa to sell it.
11:46What?
11:47He didn't think it was worth paying the repair bill, apparently.
11:51He asked Lisa to look for a buyer. It's ideal for me.
11:54Well, I'm fond of it myself.
11:56Yes, I'm sure.
11:57Um, if you don't mind, I'm in rather a hurry.
12:00I'm on my way to pick up two of my youth club members.
12:03We're going bowling.
12:09Shall I give you a lift back to the village?
12:10Could you take me home first?
12:17There you go.
12:20I was really impressed with the way you handled Joseph.
12:23You look as though you've had lots of practice.
12:25No.
12:27I thought you must have a family somewhere.
12:29It's a bit of a sore point.
12:31Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to pry.
12:33Uh, there was this lass, Elaine, that I went out with.
12:38She had a lad, Tom.
12:41He were born a few months after we split up.
12:45First time I saw him were about four years ago.
12:47And he's your son?
12:48Yeah, I reckon.
12:49And have you seen him since?
12:52No.
12:54No, I'm not likely to see him again.
12:56Oh, Terry, that's really sad.
12:57I don't think about it much.
12:59Well, for what it's worth, I think Tom's missed out on something special.
13:05Terry, can you go up to the yard?
13:06There are some papers I want you to collect from Sean.
13:10Right.
13:11Joseph's gone up to his room for a bit of a rest.
13:13He's worn out all the excitement.
13:14Oh, I'll go and see him.
13:17And Terry, uh, what you did this morning with Joseph,
13:21I really appreciate it.
13:23Think nothing of it.
13:25He's a nice kid.
13:29Where do you think you're going?
13:50You're driving me to death.
13:52You weren't by any chance thinking of doing a runner.
13:54But it's really boring here, Dad.
13:56Well, you should have thought of that before you got yourself banned from the youth club.
14:00Well, I could have stayed at home.
14:01You can trust me.
14:02That's just it.
14:03We can't.
14:05Now, you know the deal.
14:06Your mum's on early, so you're with me for the day.
14:09I thought you were on my side.
14:10I thought you understood me.
14:11I do.
14:12Only too well.
14:14And that's why you're here.
14:15And don't even think about trying that again.
14:18I know your usual hangouts in Hotton.
14:20And I could really embarrass you in front of your mates, Olivia, darling.
14:26Hello, love.
14:37What brings you home?
14:39I've just had a very strange experience.
14:42I saw Ashley driving my car.
14:46He told me he bought it from Lisa.
14:49But we both know that's absurd.
14:51She's repairing it, isn't she?
14:53I'm sorry, love.
14:54I should have told you.
14:55You did it.
14:57You really did it.
14:58You told Lisa to sell my car without saying a word to me.
15:01Yeah, well, I was going to, but I didn't think she'd sell it this quickly.
15:04Oh, so it's her fault, is it?
15:05I had me reasons there, a good reason.
15:07Like what?
15:08Like you wanted to humiliate me, ignore my needs, my feelings, those sorts of reasons?
15:13Don't get it out of all proportion, love.
15:15Oh, I'm sorry.
15:16How unreasonable of me.
15:19Sit down.
15:19I'll make you a coffee and I'll explain.
15:22I've got to get back to the diner.
15:25Sarah!
15:32Hair of the dog?
15:34You shouldn't have kept me up all night talking, Seth.
15:3720 years ago, I'd have kept you up all night doing something else.
15:39You wouldn't know, wouldn't you? Your bet's a lucky woman.
15:46You know, my dear, if you're not feeling well, you should go back to bed.
15:50But I promised Bernice I'd fill the breach while she went bowling with the vicar.
15:53I can go on my own.
15:55I'll be fine, honestly.
15:57And compared with what I'm used to, this doesn't feel like work.
16:00Well, if you put it like that.
16:01It might sound grand running a B&B, but I'm no more than a glorified skivvy.
16:05In fact, can you keep a secret?
16:08Yes, yes, of course.
16:11I'm thinking of selling up and moving here permanently.
16:14Really?
16:15It'd mean I could secure Bernice's loan on this place.
16:18Yes, yes, you could.
16:21But let's keep it strictly entre nous for the time being.
16:29Carlson, shall I calm down a bit?
16:31I'm glad to hear it, love.
16:32I didn't see my stroppy.
16:33It doesn't seem to be boozing as much either.
16:35Yes, I don't think so.
16:37Good.
16:39She doesn't seem to say much, don't it?
16:40I mean, I know she's thinking about her dad and what to you, but she won't say all about it.
16:45I wouldn't read too much into that.
16:47I just want to help her.
16:48I know you do, love.
16:49And Kel knows that too.
16:50It's just one of them things.
16:51Sometimes the last person you want to speak to is the one you love the most.
16:55Don't make sense, does it?
16:57I don't tell Zach everything.
16:59He's got more secrets than my five.
17:01But it doesn't mean we don't love each other.
17:03I just want to let her know that she can count on me.
17:05She knows it, love.
17:07I mean, you can't give her everything.
17:10You know, she's missing Mandy.
17:12She'll tell her things she won't tell you.
17:14Yeah, I know that.
17:16I just want to see her smile again.
17:17I'm looking for Mr Reynolds.
17:25Sean, he's just checking aloud.
17:26He won't be a minute.
17:27You may as well wait.
17:29Okay.
17:30I'm Mike Blake.
17:31I start here today.
17:33Laura, Sean's secretary.
17:36Aren't you a bit young?
17:3719.
17:38If you're good enough, you're old enough.
17:40I know you're good.
17:42Don't get many complaints.
17:43Not even for coming to work looking like that.
17:45Well, hang what?
17:45Well, you're not exactly dressed up, are you?
17:48Most bosses like the secretaries to look smart.
17:51Sean asked me to tone it down a bit.
17:53He reckons if I come to work with my underwire and slap on,
17:56drive the blokes wild.
17:59I bet you do.
18:01You can drive me wild any time you like.
18:02How about tonight?
18:05What the hell do you think you're doing?
18:06Dad!
18:07Dad?
18:07Make a habit of coming onto 14-year-olds, do you?
18:1014, she said she...
18:11Shut up!
18:12Nothing happened!
18:12I give you such a...
18:13Hey, Sean, calm down!
18:15What's all this about?
18:16I'm Mike Blake.
18:17I'm the new driver.
18:18Yeah, well, I make yourself scarce, mate.
18:20I haven't finished with you.
18:22Just tell me the truth, Ollie.
18:23Did he lay a finger on you?
18:24No.
18:26But I reckon he would have done it if you hadn't barged in.
18:28You spoil everything.
18:29I didn't know what you were planning on cooking.
18:43I've prepared some spoons.
18:45Oh, so you think you can put things right by peeling a few potatoes?
18:48It was going to cost £800 to have the car repaired.
18:52By selling it, we can pay off a lot of our debts.
18:54You have to buy ourselves a bit of breathing space.
18:56That's your agenda, Jack, not mine.
18:57I should have told you, I know, but I was just waiting for the right moment.
19:01Because you knew how I'd react.
19:03We can manage without the second car, can't we?
19:06Do you know, I was just thinking the same thing as I was trudging back from the diner in the freezing cold.
19:11Wait, you shouldn't give me a call. I'd have come and give you a lift.
19:13I'd rather have crawled.
19:19Hi, I'm taking you home. Your mother will be back now.
19:22I want to stay.
19:22Get in the car.
19:24I'm really sorry about that, Mr Reynolds. She told me...
19:27I know what she told you. I don't want to talk about it.
19:31I've still got a job.
19:31Just drive your wagon and stay out of my way.
19:34Welcome to Tateology, mate.
19:49Well, what do you expect? She wanted somewhere to sleep, that's all. She used you.
19:53No, it wasn't like that. We talked. There's still something between us, Chris.
19:59If you believe what you want, it won't make any difference. You'll never see her again.
20:04Richie's called to see you.
20:05All right, come in. Zoe and I have finished here.
20:11All right, sit down. You've got five minutes.
20:17I know Scott came to see you and you two didn't exactly hit it off, right?
20:20He's too flash. I don't trust him. Well, I've been thinking about that. Now, if we do a deal,
20:24I reckon any contract should be drafted up between you and me, separate from Dale Tech.
20:30You've decided to shaft him, have you?
20:32No, I want the business, Mr Tate. I don't think I'm going to get it with Scott in the loop.
20:35OK, that's a good start.
20:37I'm not going to try and dazzle you with any flash sales talk, because that's not what I'm like.
20:40So I've drawn up a couple of specs for you. Two different prices, no jargon.
20:46I'm sure you'll understand it. No offence.
20:48None taken. Anyway, have a look at them and get back to me if you're interested.
20:51Fair enough. You might want to shop around for other quotes, though.
20:55Oh, please, don't be too reasonable. I'll start thinking there's a catch.
21:09You know, the car's not important. Not really. What matters is you and me, the kids.
21:15No, Jack. What matters to you is that you get your own way, and to hell with everyone else.
21:21That's not true, love.
21:22You didn't want me to take the job at the diner. That's why you sold my car, to remind me who's boss.
21:29I did it for the family.
21:30Oh, of course. The family. When in doubt, get on your moral high horse and talk about the family.
21:38Well, it's what gives my life a purpose.
21:39I don't believe you, Jack. You're making excuses.
21:43Remember what it was like at Christmas. We were happy, all of us, doing simple things, having a laugh, enjoying each other's company.
21:50That's what this place is all about, Sarah. It was a sham. A few days off from reality.
21:55No.
21:57And what was your contribution to this wonderful time?
22:01You made a complete fool of yourself. You fell through the ceiling trying to find me some tacky present,
22:07because you were too mean to go and buy me one.
22:10It wasn't like that. You're twisting things because you're upset.
22:13You're stuck in the past, Jack. Your idea of a family belongs in a Victorian Christmas card.
22:21The head of the household surrounded by his dutiful wife and obedient children.
22:25Well, you can take your scissors and cut me out the picture.
22:28What are you talking about?
