00:00I
00:30Yeah. Do you see anybody drop out off here? No. Why? It's none of your business. I wouldn't
00:53want it to be. What are you doing up anyway? I thought kids needed all the sleep you could
00:57go. No, not me. You've got too much to do. Yes. Like what? Well, you name it, I'll be doing
01:01it. Yeah, I bet you will. Here. Do you like it? Not really. Is it real gold? What do you
01:11think? It looks like plate to me. Yeah, well, everything would look like plate to you, wouldn't
01:15it? Got no sense of the finer things in life. Is it your birthday, then? Well, not quite.
01:22I've got an admirer. Sending yourself presents now, are we? Hey. I've got more than one.
01:27Come on, admirer. Lucky you. You said it. Lucky me. Can I get down now? Yeah, of course
01:41you can now. Don't get to brush your teeth off. Okay. Don't you want that? I'm not all that
01:49hungry, darling. Thank you. Come on, Frank. When the insurance money comes through, we'll be
01:53fine. No, it's not that that's bothering me, you know. I just can't get that young man
01:56out of my mind. I mean, he had his whole life ahead of him, didn't he, you know? Come on,
01:59darling. It wasn't our fault. It wasn't. You can't put this down to yourself, this one.
02:05Mm. Okay. You see what I'm talking about? No, Frank. It wasn't our fault. It was an accident.
02:12I'm sorry if that sounds cruel, but it's the only way I can look at it. I did enough morning
02:16last year for the pair of us. Good morning, Mr. Butcher. I answered all your questions
02:22last week. The inquiry isn't finished yet, Mr. Butcher. And we've got a few more questions
02:27we need to ask you. Morning, son. Hello, Ben. You look at me. You own the pools or something?
02:35What, I wish. What's up, then? Oh, nothing. I'm just full of the joys of spring, that song.
02:39Hey, smell that air. You know, there's nothing like the smell of London. Makes me feel like
02:43a young man again. Hey, hey. Morning, Richard.
02:49Your dad don't have your pills or what? If he is, I'll get him to lend you some.
02:52Hey, listen, how's that flat of yours? Fine. Why?
02:55Ah, just checking. Well, now I'm getting the squat renovated. I'll be looking for tenants,
02:59won't I? Well, there's no point in looking here. I wouldn't rent from you if you paid me.
03:02Fair enough. I just thought your fairy godmother might like to set you up in a nice little place,
03:05that's all. And what fairy godmother's that, then?
03:08One that lent you the money for the store.
03:10No fairy godmother of mine have let me live in one of your rivals.
03:13Hey, always keep your options open. Anything could happen.
03:18Fifteen quid. I'll get it. I'll get another colour if you want.
03:22You're losing your touch, Sange.
03:24Look, I can't say I care all that much.
03:26Who's your assistant, anyway? She's not bored?
03:28She said she prefers hairdressing.
03:31Hey, hey, hey. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I've seen her.
03:33Well, that must have cost you a fair bit.
03:35No, it was a present. From an admirer.
03:37What, another one? Hey, she's getting a bit keen, isn't she?
03:40Yeah, well, my guess is she won't be able to contain herself much longer.
03:44Still no idea who it is, then?
03:46No, no, no, no, no, no. You see, um, the way I see it is, everyone's a suspect.
03:50It's just a question of rooting her out.
03:52Well, you can count Geeta out on that one, can't you?
03:54No, I don't think you heard me, Sange. I said everyone's a suspect, and that includes Geeta.
03:58That ain't funny, you know.
03:58Come on, Sange. It was just a laugh, eh?
04:00As if I'd go for her. Sange!
04:02I can't see you working still somehow.
04:06Yeah, it's a mug scan, that's why I jacked it in.
04:08So what do you want to do?
04:09I'm going to hang out for a decent hairdressing job.
04:11You know, one of the top salons where they're not frightened of a bit of imagination.
04:15Well, keep wishing. You might get what you want.
04:17And you're 100% about this?
04:18I just want to make sure, that's all. I've got a lot of staying here.
04:22Yeah, yeah, and you haven't spoken to anybody else, have you?
04:25Oh, good. You just don't want anybody else finding out. Not just yet.
04:28Oh, look, I've got to go. Look, I'll speak to you later, all right?
04:30No, I'll call you.
04:32Yeah, what can I get you?
04:33You've got a perfectly good one of those at home, you know.
04:35Yeah, I know. I just popped in for a cup of coffee and, um, remember that, they called someone.
04:38Oh, who?
04:39Oh, just an old mate. Wanted to find out how the catering business is.
04:42Oh, and how is it?
04:44Oh, not bad. Not bad. Where's the twins?
04:46Oh, Kev, you put her on a few new clothes, so I left her with them for a minute.
04:48Oh, right. Did you get me anything?
04:49Afraid not.
04:50There you go, Cheryl. Right, I'm off.
04:52Well, where to?
04:53Just off.
04:54Will I come with you, shall I?
04:55No, it's all right. I'm not really doing anything.
04:56Besides, you'd better get back to the flat and get all those kids before Mum goes nuts.
04:59See you later.
05:02He's got better things to do.
05:05Anyway, this bloke, we checked him out. He was no relation of yours.
05:08As I've already told you.
05:10But these things have to be followed up, you know.
05:11Who knows? We might not have to have a murder inquiry now.
05:15Yeah, well, that makes me feel a whole lot better.
05:18How was your business doing, Mr Butcher?
05:20Fine.
05:21How many cars were you shifting, say, a month?
05:25Enough, I suppose.
05:26And how many's enough, Mr Butcher?
05:29Enough to pay for this place.
05:31Yeah, well, you know, we have to ask these questions considering all your books went up in the fire.
05:36Yes, along with everything else.
05:37And what about bank statements? Do you have any of those?
05:39No, it's all right. We can get access to Mr Butcher's bank account.
05:42You wouldn't have any objections, would you, Mr Butcher?
05:45The place you lived in previous to this one, number 43.
05:49That's right.
05:50Right little pokey old. How we managed, we'll never know.
05:53A Phil Mitchell owns it now.
05:55Mm-hmm.
05:56That's odd.
05:58What's odd?
05:59Well, he was with you in the Vic on the night of the fire.
06:03Well, what's odd about that?
06:04If a man moves round in her, he's bound to go in the Vic for a drink, isn't he?
06:08And he wasn't with me.
06:10Does the name Hammond mean anything to you?
06:12Hammond.
06:13Hammond, Hammond, Hammond.
06:14No, I can't say it does, no.
06:18Now, listen to me, Frank.
06:19We all want this over and done with, yeah?
06:22Of course we do, yeah.
06:23Now, so when I ask you a question in future, don't lie to me.
06:27Do you hear me?
06:28Yes.
06:29Because I don't like liars, Frank.
06:31You got that?
06:32Yeah?
06:33Good.
06:34Now, you fill us in about, Mr Hammond, eh?
06:37What's your mum saying about all this stuff arriving?
06:40Oh, nothing.
06:40She never noticed anything anyway.
06:43What do you think, then?
06:44We'll be like models in this.
06:47Listen, you should have seen Richard this morning.
06:49You thought he was God's gift.
06:50I don't really think someone fancies him.
06:51I think the old world fancies him.
06:53All right.
06:54Any sign of Pauline?
06:55I think she's out the back.
06:56Oh, right.
06:57Do you like our shows?
06:57Oh, yeah, lovely.
06:59You must get a pair.
07:00All right, Mrs Ed?
07:01Well, I think I am.
07:03You know, Richard almost caught me leaving that bracelet there this morning.
07:05Oh, I knew you wouldn't get a pair, you know?
07:07Yeah, well, you can deliver the next one.
07:08Yeah, I'm not going to get in next time, then.
07:10I can't believe the cost of renting a flat.
07:12And that's before you even move in.
07:14Oh, you, this isn't a play school, you know.
07:17We heard it was.
07:18Can't you find somewhere else to go?
07:20Oh, and you don't own this place.
07:21Out.
07:22Who does your hair, Pauline?
07:23The council?
07:24Do you know, it's going to get worse round here with that lot.
07:29I don't know why you don't do yourself a favour.
07:31Move out and rent somewhere nice.
07:33Oh, the flat we've seen in George Street is great,
07:34but the landlord wants a deposit.
07:36I just ain't got no money.
07:37Oh, can't you move in with Debbie?
07:39Oh, well, it's a bit tricky, really.
07:41She's got a lot of memories there.
07:42None of them good.
07:44Besides, I think it's best if we make a fresh start, you know,
07:46that way we stand a better chance of making a go of things.
07:48I hope you do, Nigel.
07:50You deserve it.
07:51Oh, thanks, Mrs F.
07:52It's nice to hear someone being positive for a change.
07:54Yeah, well, don't expect too much, because she won't get it.
07:56Oh.
07:57We've just got to have a look at me and Arthur to see that.
08:00Right, I'll bear that in mind, Mrs F.
08:01Yeah, and make the most of it, because it won't last.
08:04Right, thanks for the advice, Mrs F.
08:07Any time, Nigel.
08:08The thing is that my run-in with Hammond happened ages ago.
08:12You know, I'm a busy man round here.
08:13You can't expect me to remember everything that goes on.
08:15It was only a matter of months, Mr Butcher,
08:17and you wouldn't just forget about a man
08:18who'd forced you to close down your cab company.
08:21I certainly wouldn't.
08:21Yes, well, maybe it was something I wanted to forget, eh?
08:25You just hang on a minute, eh?
08:27You're not saying that man had something to do with this, are you?
08:29No chance of that.
08:31Watertight alibi.
08:32I want to know why you didn't want to tell me about Mr Hammond.
08:36Maybe it was something I didn't want to go over again, eh?
08:37Is it because you know who did it?
08:39Did what?
08:40Fired you, Carlot.
08:42I didn't know anybody, eh?
08:43You see, I think you didn't mention Hammond,
08:45because you knew we'd go after him,
08:47and despite everything between you two,
08:48you wouldn't want to see an innocent man wrongly charged.
08:51Just hang on. Just hang on, Hammond.
08:52Is that right, Mr Butcher?
08:57The reason that I didn't mention Hammond,
08:59I want to be quite honest,
09:00he did a right number on me.
09:03He scared me.
09:03As a matter of fact, he frightened the ruddy life out of me.
09:06Now, I haven't to admit that, Mr Trent,
09:09because I've never been scared of anybody or anything in my entire life.
09:13But Hammond changed all that.
09:16You see, if word got out that I'd given a nod in his direction,
09:19I couldn't see me sleeping too soundly at night, could you?
09:22I think I can see your point.
09:23Well, I hope you do, Mr Trent,
09:24because you've got no idea how much it hurt me to say that.
09:27What's going on?
09:33What'd you make of that?
09:34Nothing, why?
09:35It's been there some time.
09:36I reckon Frank's under the cosh.
09:37Ah, Frank ain't got anything to worry about.
09:40Accidents happened, didn't they?
09:41Yeah, some on accidents.
09:43What's that supposed to mean?
09:44Remember the Vic?
09:46Frank wouldn't do a thing like that.
09:47Wouldn't he?
09:48Who's side you on?
09:49I'm just saying, that's all.
09:51Frank ain't got a bottle of soap like they'll spark.
09:52They let down his own car, though.
09:54Yeah, but do they know that?
09:56All they need is a bit of evidence, and that's it.
09:59Nah.
10:00It'll be all right.
10:01It's going to be a long-term thing, you working here.
10:03I don't know, why?
10:04Well, it's a big year, isn't it?
10:05We don't want you failing your exams
10:06just because you're serving bacon rolls to people.
10:08Look, I've got a daughter to bring up, you know.
10:10I mean, she needs clothes, and goodness knows what else.
10:13I mean, it's not like I'm spending my wages on cocktails and discos.
10:15Well, I'm just checking on you, that's all.
10:17I'd just not like you to care about me.
10:19Yeah, well, I do.
10:19I just don't like admitting it.
10:21Yeah.
10:21See you.
10:26Bit early for that, innit?
10:28Not when he just had a Spanish Inquisition, no.
10:31How long were they here?
10:33Too long.
10:34Where have you been, anyway?
10:36Still got me cleaning jugs, Frank.
10:38Well, thanks for your support, sweetheart.
10:40I know I could rely on you in time of a crisis.
10:42Cheers.
10:43I've got me own worries and all, you know.
10:45Worries?
10:47I haven't got worries.
10:48I've got a ruddy disaster on me hands.
10:51Everything's gone up in smoke.
10:53Now, what could you possibly have that's the equivalent of that?
10:56You think you're the only one that's allowed to sump around here, aren't you?
10:59Look at you.
10:59Slump there.
11:01One visit from the old billy for a part of the scene.
11:05Hang on a minute.
11:07What have I got to do to make you understand what's going on here?
11:10What have I got to do?
11:12Drag you down the car lot and show you the ashes?
11:14I don't think it's too much to expect a bit of sympathy.
11:21It's David.
11:25David, eh?
11:26Oh, David, eh?
11:28What's he done now?
11:29Conned a few more quid off his dear old mum, has he, eh?
11:32No.
11:35Carol says that he's Bianca's father.
11:44Er, Bianca?
11:45Yes.
11:46Bianca.
11:46Well, I can't say I can see the family resemblance.
11:51Is that all you can say?
11:55As of right now, yes.
11:57I mean, being related to Bianca's not everybody's cup of tea,
11:59but I'll dwell on it for another day if it's all right with you.
12:03You don't believe that, Carol, do you?
12:04I don't know what I believe!
12:06I knew there was no point in talking to you.
12:09Where are you going?
12:10What do you care?
12:12Why don't you just stay here and feel sorry for yourself?
12:15Don't worry about me. I'll be fine.
12:17Oh, I'm sure you will, my sweet. I'm sure you will.
12:21Why don't you have a drink on me?
12:23Oh, right. OK. That's enough!
12:30Here, Grant.
12:31Er, don't suppose you're in a position to give us a loan, are you?
12:34No.
12:35Just for a few weeks to get me to deposit together?
12:38No.
12:38Give it me straight, mate. Don't beat about the bush.
12:41Anyway, what do you need money for?
12:42I thought you were getting the job in the video shoot.
12:43I haven't heard yet, have I?
12:44It's probably gone to someone else.
12:46There'll be other jobs.
12:47Yeah, but I need one now, don't I?
12:48I mean, once we get in that flat, that's it.
12:50Me, Debbie and Claire are set up for life.
12:52It's a dream come true.
12:53Is it?
12:54Yeah, it is.
12:59What can I get you?
13:00Um...
13:00I'll get this.
13:01Oh, cheers.
13:02It's, er, white wine.
13:03And a glass of water for yourself.
13:06How did you know that was my drink?
13:08Same way you and you had a liking for gold.
13:10Sorry?
13:10Oh, we'll talk about it later.
13:12Do you want to, er, sit down?
13:15You, er, you haven't seen Frank, have you?
13:17What, don't some of the old billers still questioning you?
13:19Oh, they're doing house to house now, seeing if anyone's seen or heard anything.
13:22Well, they won't learn anything yet.
13:23Yeah, Phil.
13:24You look like the sort of man who wouldn't let mate miss out on a dream.
13:27What are you on about?
13:28He's after money.
13:29Oh, sorry, no, your fingers are a bit tight right now.
13:31What's it for, anyway?
13:32Oh, nothing much.
13:32Just my entire future happiness, that's all.
13:35Oh, but don't you lads worry about that.
13:36We won't.
13:37No, I'll see you later, all right?
13:38Yeah, I'll see you later, bruv.
13:41Don't see you in here much?
13:42No, that's because I don't come in very much.
13:44So what are you doing in today?
13:46I don't know, I'll just fetch a change.
13:48I reckon you were looking for someone?
13:49Mm-hmm.
13:50Oh, yeah.
13:51And who would that be?
13:52Well, I don't know.
13:54You tell me.
13:55No, you seem to know a lot.
13:57You tell me.
13:58Yeah, I know everything.
14:00Yeah, I bet you do.
14:02Next time, you should ring the bell.
14:03In fact, next time, I might even be waiting.
14:06They're talking in riddles.
14:08Well, maybe we should get together sometime and unravel them.
14:11I don't normally like pushy men.
14:14I think you do.
14:15Look, I hate to say this, but I've got to get off.
14:17All right, never mind.
14:18Thanks for the drink.
14:19Anytime.
14:21See you around.
14:22Yeah, if you're lucky.
14:25I see the circuses in town.
14:27You wouldn't know if it fell on your head.
14:29Well, if you tottered around like that, you'd most probably fall on your own heads.
14:33All right.
14:35All right.
14:35What can I do for you?
14:36Nothing, really.
14:37Fair enough.
14:39Do you want to go and see a film?
14:41Film?
14:42Yeah.
14:42I thought we could go to Leicester Square and maybe go to Charnytown afterwards.
14:45Um, yeah.
14:47What's on?
14:47Well, I don't know.
14:48But we could check the papers.
14:50To be honest, we'd have to rather stay in and watch the telly.
14:52All right.
14:53I just thought it might be good for us to get out, wouldn't it?
14:55Actually, I meant on me own.
14:57No, I'm fine.
14:58You don't mind, do you?
14:59No.
15:00The thing is, I'm so knackered I probably wouldn't be matching away a company anyway, yeah?
15:05But Cheryl must probably go out, have you?
15:06Yeah.
15:07Yes, love.
15:09Some bananas, darling.
15:11No worries.
15:11Let's pick it up.
15:13Oh, come on, Sands.
15:14Don't be so darned.
15:16As far as I can see, you're a free man and you should be out there acting accordingly.
15:20Well, if you must know, it's Shamila's birthday.
15:23And?
15:24It's her first birthday.
15:25So what?
15:26Well, I didn't get to spend it with her, did I?
15:28Oh, you know your trouble?
15:30The glass is never half full.
15:31It's always half empty, isn't it?
15:33What?
15:33What does that mean?
15:34You should look on the positive side.
15:36Look, at least you don't have to buy a present.
15:44It's Phil Mitchell, isn't it?
15:47Mind if we have a word?
15:48What about?
15:50Frank Butcher.
15:51That's for starters.
15:55Go on.
15:57Frank a good mate of yours, is he?
15:58Not especially now.
16:00I just said Owen, but that's about all.
16:02That's exactly what he said.
16:04Almost word for word.
16:06You two must be on the same wavelength.
16:08They must be.
16:09How's his situation, you know, financially speaking?
16:12Well, how would I know?
16:13Like I say, I'd just say hello to him, that's all.
16:15Do you know anyone who might have a grudge against him?
16:17Not a fan, but, er...
16:20Well, I don't know him that well, to be honest.
16:21You must do.
16:23You're practically family.
16:24Well, I can't say as I saw it that way.
16:26So, who do you think fired the car lot, then?
16:31I didn't know someone did.
16:33I'll rephrase that.
16:35What did you first think when you heard about the fire?
16:38Well, bad luck, I suppose, but, er...
16:40I'm rather him than me.
16:42Lots of flammables in here.
16:44Yeah, well, it goes with a job.
16:47When did Frank leave the pub on the night of the fire?
16:50I don't know.
16:50Me and me brother left before him here.
16:52We went for a tandoori.
16:54Where was that, then?
16:55The Palace of India, near the depot in Walford.
16:59Right.
17:00Well, that should do for now.
17:01But if we need to talk to you again, you will be around, I take it.
17:05Yeah, I'm always around.
17:05Any chance of a freebie?
17:09They're not mine to give away.
17:11Oh, go on, no-one will notice.
17:13You don't know Grant Mitchell.
17:14Listen, would you say you're ambitious, Stella?
17:16I suppose so.
17:17Why?
17:18I just thought you were, this all.
17:20Oh, isn't everyone?
17:21Not really.
17:22Most people are negative.
17:23I'm not like that.
17:24Glad to hear it.
17:25What are you getting at, anyway?
17:27I might have a proposition for you, this all.
17:28Oh, yeah?
17:29Yeah.
17:30Well?
17:31Well, what?
17:32Aren't you going to make your proposal?
17:34Later.
17:35Steve?
17:37Oh, at least give us a clue.
17:38Like I said, later.
17:40Have you seen Ian around?
17:41No.
17:42Why?
17:42I don't know.
17:43This can't seem to track you down at the moment.
17:45Have you tried Radar?
17:46Of course, not having a husband or a boyfriend.
17:47You wouldn't know about things like this, would you?
17:49Who says I haven't got a boyfriend?
17:50I do.
17:52Yeah, well, it's not the be-all one end-all, is it?
17:53I'm perfectly happy on my own.
17:54Well, you've got to say that, haven't you?
17:55I mean, who loves the wallflower?
18:01I haven't seen my mum around, have you?
18:03What am I?
18:03See facts?
18:04Sorry?
18:05No, no, I haven't seen it.
18:07David?
18:07All right?
18:08Hiya.
18:09You all right?
18:10Do you want anything?
18:10Depends what you offer him.
18:12Don't mind me.
18:13I was just looking for my mum.
18:15Nice opening in here.
18:16Have a seat.
18:18Yeah, come on, have a chat with her.
18:19She can phone your mum any time.
18:21Yeah, do some baking party, will you, Shell?
18:23Make it three.
18:25All right.
18:26All right.
18:27Orgis a cuppa.
18:28Just had a drink.
18:29It's gone straight to my head.
18:29All right.
18:30Don't want you falling in the dryers, do we?
18:35How long have they been there?
18:36Not long.
18:39Forget the tea, eh?
18:42Great idea coming round here, Phil.
18:45Great idea.
18:46I saw the old bill going to the Jacksons.
18:48I still don't think it was a good idea of you to come here.
18:52How much have that scotch you had?
18:54Not enough, not by a long shot.
18:56Bit of a giveaway, innit?
18:58Everybody has a drink now and again.
19:01So, what did you tell them?
19:05Oh, not a lot.
19:06Well, they wanted to know everything from my shoe size to what side of the bed I sleep on.
19:11And what else?
19:12What do you mean, what else?
19:14Well, they got round to my gaff quick enough.
19:16You must have said something to them.
19:17What is this?
19:19I've already had one grilling this morning.
19:21I don't need another one, thank you.
19:23They probably questioned everybody.
19:24You said it yourself, they were round at the Jacksons.
19:26I think you've had enough.
19:27I'll tell you when I've had enough.
19:28All it takes is one wrong word.
19:31Oh, Phil.
19:32It's not easy to try and look into someone you're guilty.
19:35A young man died.
19:38Yeah, I know.
19:40I ain't handled it too well myself.
19:41What was he doing in the car?
19:43What was he doing in the car?
19:44I ain't got the answer to that, Frank.
19:47Look, the thing to remember is the old Bill don't know anything.
19:49They won't know anything as long as we play it right.
19:51You got me?
19:51Yes, loud and clear.
19:55Can I have my scotch back?
19:56Now do yourself a favour and have a cup of coffee.
19:58Because believe me, Frank, he'll be back.
20:00And when I do come back, you better be ready.
20:02So is it going to be a big surprise, then?
20:10Massive.
20:10Oh, surely you can tell me.
20:12Look, just meet me in the old pet shop in George Street.
20:15Tomorrow morning, ten o'clock sharp.
20:16The pet shop?
20:17It's closed down, isn't it?
20:18Just be there and don't be late.
20:20Oh, just give us a little clue, Steve.
20:22Oh, go on, just a hint.
20:23Yeah, right, so where can you let us know, then?
20:26Oh, right, yeah.
20:28No, no, no, no, of course I can wait.
20:30Yeah, great.
20:31OK, cheers, bye.
20:36Anything?
20:37No.
20:38The bloke hasn't made his mind up yet.
20:40He says he's seen about a million people for the jobs.
20:42Well, you've got no chance, eh?
20:43That's more than you'll ever have.
20:44Oh, that's where you're wrong.
20:46I've got more chance than the two of you put together.
20:48I suppose it's a job for me, is it?
20:49No.
20:50Don't listen to him, no.
20:51He's always talked to good life.
20:52Shame he never lived it.
20:53I think what you like.
20:55I'm going, Blake, sir.
20:56Yeah, and maybe sooner than you think.
20:58All right, lads.
20:59Couldn't be better.
21:00What can I get you?
21:00We're on duty.
21:02Any chance of a quick word, then?
21:03Make it a long one, if you like.
21:05We've got nothing to hide, have we, lads?
21:06Ah, not me.
21:07I'm as honest as the day's long.
21:08Good.
21:09I think we'll start with you, then, shall we, sir?
21:12Just want to have a quick word of you and dad.
21:14I can do you some lunch, if you like.
21:16Actually, I'm a bit rushed today, Mum.
21:17Don't tell me.
21:18You want some lunch?
21:19No, um, I wanted to talk to your mum.
21:22Why?
21:23What's that?
21:23Nothing.
21:25Look, I never really got round to thanking you for helping me out, you know, about the store.
21:29Don't be daft.
21:30We wanted to.
21:31Yeah, that's what we're here for.
21:32Yeah, I know, but it was a lot of money.
21:34I'm sure you had other plans for it.
21:36We never really thought about it.
21:37Yeah, well, I will pay you back, you know.
21:39It'll take a while, though, that's all.
21:40It takes as long as it takes, son.
21:42Yeah, there's no hurry.
21:46I just want to say thanks for believing in me.
21:47It means a lot to me, you know.
21:50Thanks.
21:57About these done by tonight?
21:58You'll be lucky.
22:00I could always put in a complaint about you, you know.
22:02Do what you like.
22:03See if I care.
22:03I should have smacked you in the mouth the other day.
22:08Yeah?
22:08You could have tried, you mean.
22:11You crack me up, Pat.
22:12You really do.
22:13I mean, try as you might, you'll just never be a lady, will you?
22:16Who's talking?
22:17Once a scrubber, always a scrubber.
22:19Don't you push your luck.
22:22You're already in too deep trying to claim our David's Bianca's father.
22:24That's not a claim.
22:25It's the truth.
22:27David told me you had an abortion.
22:29We know you did.
22:30That's where you both roll.
22:31I decided to keep the kid.
22:33Fairy tales, love.
22:34Fairy tales!
22:34Look at it this way, Pat.
22:36Why would I lie?
22:37I mean, what would I get out of it?
22:39Well, access to half the money from Pete's door, for starters.
22:41As if David would part with that.
22:43He might just do that if he thought he had a daughter.
22:46Well, you obviously don't know him as well as I do.
22:49He doesn't care about anyone but himself.
22:52I don't want to hear another word about any of this.
22:54As far as I'm concerned, the matter's closed.
22:55Well, that's where you're wrong.
22:57You're not going to hear a lot more about this.
22:59Because there's no way I'm going to stand by and let him beg his own daughter.
23:02What?
23:03Yeah, your word.
23:04He's been chucking presents at her like there's no tomorrow.
23:07Every day she'll get some at you.
23:09No, no, he ain't got the money for that.
23:11Whoa, don't forget the store money, Pat.
23:13Mum!
23:15There you are.
23:16I'll be looking everywhere for you.
23:17No, why, what's the matter?
23:19I wanted to see if you were all right.
23:21Yes, I'm fine.
23:22It's Frank you should be worried about.
23:23Oh, yeah.
23:24He's a big boy now.
23:25I'm sure he can look after himself.
23:26I won't be too sure of that, David.
23:28He won't be down for too long.
23:29Not once that nice big fat insurance check lands on his mat.
23:34Was he, er, heavily insured then?
23:36Reasonably.
23:39Oh.
23:39Where is he now?
23:41Slumped in a chair at home, I expect.
23:43Maybe I will check up on him.
23:46I'm sure he could do with a bit of cheering up.
23:48Glad to see you're all right, man.
23:53Heart or gold, that one.
23:55So, what's it to be, Pat?
23:59Am I going to tell him?
24:01Or are you?
24:01Sidney, just a girl.
24:09You haven't developed a sideline in delivery services, have you?
24:12What?
24:13You know, door-to-door and that.
24:14What are you on about?
24:16Oh, forget it.
24:17Just eliminating a few possibilities.
24:20I've got a secret admirer, you see?
24:21Oh, and you thought it was me?
24:23Well, I'm sure you've got a saucepan for me.
24:24You've got a nerve.
24:25I haven't forgotten my dad's birthday, have you?
24:34What about it?
24:35We're supposed to be going for lunch with him tomorrow, remember?
24:38Oh, yeah, yeah, of course.
24:39Yeah, I've arranged for Michelle to look after the store and everything.
24:41Oh, great.
24:42I'm really looking forward to it.
24:43It's all right.
24:43Don't worry about that.
24:44Early Christmas present.
24:45No.
24:46Too good to me.
24:48Don't miss me too much tonight, will you?
24:49I'll try not to.
24:55Well, that was a waste of money, didn't it?
24:57I'll give it to her when she comes back.
24:59Hey, don't listen to me, Sanjay.
25:01When you haven't got kids, it's hard to imagine what all the fuss is about.
25:03Well, maybe if you're lucky, your admirer might leave one for you.
25:06Richard Cole?
25:08Yeah?
25:09Only routine, sir.
25:10And you are?
25:11Sanjay Kapoor.
25:13You were in the Vic on the night of the fire?
25:15Yeah, that's right.
25:17Do you remember how long Frank Butcher was in there?
25:19Dunno.
25:20Well, I can't see someone I take much notice of.
25:23Oh?
25:24We heard he was pretty popular around here.
25:26Yeah, if you like listening to boring anecdotes about the motor trade,
25:29me, I'd prefer to listen to something else.
25:30I don't know why you're bothering, really.
25:31I mean, Frank's no criminal.
25:33You'd be better off spending your time trying to catch real villains.
25:36Well, we'll be the judge of that, thank you, Mr Kapoor.
25:38Um, Frank wasn't particularly, um, I don't know, how should we say it,
25:42uh, pleasant about you.
25:45Do you have any reason for that?
25:47Envy.
25:48Probably.
25:49And why should he be envious of you?
25:50Oh, I thought that'd be obvious.
25:51Not immediately.
25:53Well, his time's almost past, isn't it?
25:55And what's he ended up with?
25:57An overbearing peroxide vision of distinct unloveliness.
26:00His wife, you mean?
26:01You said it, not me.
26:03You're a bit of a draw with the ladies, are you?
26:06Well, maybe.
26:08And how about Frank?
26:09Does he, uh, like the women as well?
26:11Well, it doesn't matter if he does or he doesn't.
26:12Either way, you can't afford them.
26:13Well, you were under the impression he was doing all right for himself.
26:16Ah, some people's standards are lower than others.
26:18How do you mean, exactly?
26:19Ah, he's as good as bankrupt, isn't he?
26:21Look, I reckon he's just tightened himself.
26:23Is he, indeed?
26:24Bankrupt, you see?
26:26Now, don't, sir, don't quote me on that.
26:27Yeah, I mean, there's a lot of gossip flying around here.
26:29None of it's ever true.
26:31No, of course it isn't.
26:32I saw this about you filling for me on a stool tomorrow.
26:37Well, it's just, it's, uh, Shelley's dad's birthday.
26:38Well, don't you think you should have squared her with me first?
26:41I thought you'd been into it.
26:42I just don't like people making decisions behind me back, that's all.
26:44Well, tell Shelley, then. It was her idea.
26:46Oh, forget it.
26:48Oh, talk about being grateful.
26:50Well, thanks for the chat, David.
26:52You know, I may have got you all wrong in there.
26:55Yeah, it can't be easy for you now, Frank.
26:58You can say that again.
27:00Pity your mother doesn't share your concern, boy.
27:03Well, that's all over, innit?
27:04So I'm making it a fine hour, yeah.
27:06Still, I'm glad you had the good sense to take out a decent policy.
27:10Ah, that's something I'm not.
27:13Daft.
27:14I've got all the angles covered, David, don't worry about it.
27:17No, you won't catch old Frankie boy with his trousers down.
27:22I'll get that on my way out.
27:23Good lad, good lad, thank you.
27:25Riley, I'll get in there.
27:26I'm gonna have me another little snifter.
27:28Oh.
27:32And snifter.
27:34Looks like you've got company, Frank.
27:37What is it with you lot?
27:39I've already asked your questions five times over.
27:43We've just been in touch with our base, sir.
27:44Well, whoopsy-doo.
27:46Mr Butcher, we'd like you to come down to the station with us.
27:49Aye.
27:50We're arresting you on suspicion of manslaughter
27:52and also for suspected conspiracy to defraud an insurance company.
27:56You don't have to say anything, but anything you do say
27:59may be used in evidence against you.
28:06We visit the firefighters at Blackwall Fire Station
28:10in London's Burning, next, here on Drama.
28:15We're going to try to take care.
28:16With theuisant.
28:17Be on.
28:18See you then.
28:20Good lad.
28:21Be on.
28:22Be on.
28:23Be on.
28:24Be on.
28:27Be on.
28:28Be on.
28:32Be on.
28:33Be on.
28:33Be on.
28:34Be on.
28:36Be on.
28:37Be on.
