00:30What are you doing? Hoping Aaron comes along? Yeah. Yeah, he's still ignoring my calls. Why don't you just come over there? He clearly doesn't want to see me. What if I've lost him for good? Well, I'm sure that you haven't. But at least he knows the truth now. Yeah, small compensation if the wedding's off. You don't know that it is yet. I thought you said he just needed time to think things through. He's had all night to do that. Why is he still blanking me? Don't blame Aaron.
01:00You're right. You're right. I'm sorry. I know exactly who's to blame.
01:12Right, you. Egg and bacon butty. Don't say I don't love you. I said I didn't want one. Well, you need to eat something. Right, can everyone stop telling me what I have to do, please?
01:23What's wrong with... What's wrong with her? You haven't still got the hump, have you? You do know Cain bit on that fight as well. Am I just some joke to you lot?
01:34No, of course you're not. Look, I'm sorry. Yesterday just got a bit out of hand. But thank God Jacob wasn't seriously injured.
01:40And on the other hand, you've got two boys fighting over you. That proves you're popular.
01:44I'm going to go and try Aaron again.
01:51Look, you're right to be angry. I should never have got involved.
01:53No, you shouldn't have. Then you know Jacob's just lost his mum yet you're out here actively encouraging him to do something reckless. It's really messed him up.
02:00What happened when you spoke to him? What did he say?
02:02That's none of your business. The point is you shouldn't have egged him on.
02:05You do know Cammy's as much to blame.
02:07They're young lads. You're supposed to know better.
02:09Yeah. You're right. I'm sorry. Okay, look, from now on, I'll back off, yeah? I'll never believe Cammy's good enough for you, but if that's your choice, Walt, I won't stand in your way.
02:23I couldn't get a hold of him. Right, yeah. See you later.
02:26Yeah.
02:34Oh, Liam!
02:35Today's your lucky day.
02:40Oh, I can assure you it isn't.
02:42Eve just polished off my monster flakes.
02:45You still eat monster flakes?
02:47We all have our weaknesses.
02:48Yeah, well, bacon is good for you.
02:50Oh, I can assure you it isn't.
02:52Right, anyway, I've got the manure that you asked for. Just pick it up whenever.
02:57Oh, fantastic.
02:58Yeah, I'm a bit tied up all morning. Do you mind just dropping it at the allotment?
03:01I'm already doing you a huge favour.
03:03I know, and I really appreciated it, but if you could get it there for about noon, that'd be wonderful.
03:08You are really taking advantage of my good nature.
03:10Oh, I am, aren't I?
03:13Right, time it, Dad.
03:14You look like you've been in the wars.
03:24I'm fine.
03:26You sure about that?
03:29Me and Cammie had a race yesterday.
03:32I got out of hand and I crashed.
03:36I feel like I've been all over the place recently.
03:37Look, I know I'm no longer your step-mom, but, um, I'm here.
03:45If you ever need to talk.
03:47Thanks, Tracy.
03:51Ever since mum, I just feel like I haven't been myself.
03:55You can't beat yourself up about that.
03:57Yeah, it's sort of what Sarah said.
04:00Sarah?
04:01I thought you were over.
04:02So did I.
04:04But yesterday, when I lost the plot, we had a good talk.
04:09She really helped me out.
04:10So are you and her.
04:12Looks promising, but she's still with Cammie.
04:16Do you want her back?
04:18Yeah, more than ever.
04:19Then forget Cammie.
04:22All star in love and war.
04:24I don't know about that.
04:25Maybe, when you were getting close to Sarah yesterday,
04:33what was your mum's doing?
04:36Maybe she's looking down on you.
04:39Making sure you get that happy ever after.
04:43You don't really believe that, do you?
04:45I believe in omens.
04:48Life goes on.
04:50And if she was here now,
04:53she'd tell you that herself.
05:03Changing the oil or what?
05:05I'm on it.
05:06Give me a chance.
05:08That's what we're here.
05:08I thought you'd be celebrating your victory.
05:10Yeah, I might have won the race, but...
05:13What's happened now?
05:16I saw Sarah kiss Jacob.
05:18They looked really close.
05:19Right.
05:20What do you think I should do?
05:23I'm not getting involved.
05:24You got involved yesterday.
05:25That was different.
05:27I thought we were serious, but...
05:29her and Jacob, they go way back, don't they?
05:31What if deep down she still has feelings for him?
05:34You need to ask her that, not me.
05:36She should have been in here by now.
05:37Why don't you go and knock on for her,
05:38see what's going on?
05:39Nah.
05:39She knows where I am if she wants to see me.
05:46Honestly, there's no call for you to trouble Dr Kavanagh.
05:49What you've got is inner ear dizziness.
05:52Happens to the best of us at our age.
05:54You need to put your feet up, drink plenty of water,
05:56avoid noise and bright lights.
05:59Plodhead.
06:00Hi.
06:00Sorry.
06:00What's going on here?
06:01Helping a friend in need.
06:03I can offer you an appointment,
06:05but it's not urgent, so it won't be today.
06:07I can offer you Monday, 10.30.
06:09Right.
06:10Fine.
06:10Plodhead, hi.
06:19Sorry, I don't remember employing you.
06:21Doing a good deed for the day.
06:23Where's John?
06:24Bathroom emergency.
06:26And how did you access the diary?
06:28John left it up on the screen when he nipped to the loo.
06:30He was in quite a hurry.
06:32Plodhead, you can't just take over.
06:33Really, I don't mind.
06:35I was in here for my repeat prescription anyway.
06:37I filled out the form.
06:39You just need to sign it.
06:41Do you think you might be overstepping just a touch?
06:44I don't think you're qualified to offer medical advice.
06:46I'm offering a helping hand.
06:48It can't be easy with Manpreet being away.
06:50You must be rushed off your feet, you poor thing.
06:53Oh, feeling better?
06:55Not really.
06:56I think I must have picked up a bug.
06:58Oh, one too many beers last night?
07:00Drown in the sorrows?
07:01No, no, no.
07:01I haven't touched a drop.
07:02Have you tried bicarb?
07:04Works for all sorts of ailments.
07:05I swear by it.
07:06I'll be fine.
07:07As soon as I stop throwing up.
07:09You can't have your staff spreading germs.
07:12People come here to be cured, not infected.
07:14Well, I don't want to leave Liam in the lurch.
07:15I'm more than happy to keep holding the foot.
07:19No, she's right, you know.
07:20You should go home.
07:22Well, if you're sure.
07:27Sorry about this.
07:28Don't worry about it.
07:32Miss Sharman?
07:34Doctor will see you now.
07:35Hello?
07:36Brook Cottage Surgery.
07:49How may I help you?
07:50Hey.
07:53Do you get the kids off to school okay?
07:55Yeah, just about.
07:57Clemmie took some persuading.
08:00Well, well done for talking around.
08:03Because she is barely speaking to me at the moment.
08:05At least she doesn't think you don't love her anymore.
08:09When did she think that?
08:10Just yesterday in one of her meltdowns.
08:12But don't worry, I've told her how much you adore her.
08:15Yeah, thanks for that.
08:16Anyway, full disclosure.
08:20I, er, did use a bit of bribery earlier.
08:23I said that if she didn't go into school, I wouldn't be taking her to London.
08:26London?
08:26Alice is over for a few days, but you can't come and visit.
08:29So I said that we'd go down there instead.
08:30I can't do that.
08:31Well, you're not invited.
08:32How weird would that be?
08:34Well, yeah, you just can't arrange things behind my back.
08:37I mean, they're my kids.
08:38And they're mine as well.
08:39Look, they could do with a bit of a break.
08:40They're looking forward to it.
08:41No, it's not happening, sorry.
08:42Wait a minute, I don't need permission to spend time with them.
08:45No, but you could at least discuss it with me beforehand.
08:48And do you know how unsettled Clemmie is?
08:50I mean, what are you going to do?
08:51Just take her to a strange place to meet someone she doesn't know?
08:53Alice is my brother. He's not some random stranger.
08:55How am I meant to build any bridges with Clemmie if you just take her away?
08:58Oh, right, so you think I'm doing all this to turn her against you?
09:01I'm not saying that.
09:04It's just weird, isn't it?
09:05It's like we're not a family.
09:07Look, we're only here because you broke up with me.
09:11I just don't want my kids to hate me.
09:17Don't want to know you're a good mum.
09:19You just need to accept the fact that you can't be the one who makes all the decisions anymore.
09:24Clearly not.
09:25Look, don't start resenting me for wanting to be their dad.
09:28It's not fair.
09:31Sorry.
09:33Aw, you two can compare wedding plans.
09:43Sorry, I forgot.
09:45Forgot what?
09:46Oh, er, him and John aren't talking at the moment for some reason.
09:49Why not?
09:50Because we're not.
09:50Hiya.
09:52Oh, can I word?
09:54Yeah, fire away.
09:55No, erm, in private.
09:56What's wrong?
09:57Nothing, I just want to share an idea with you, that's all.
09:59If you're planning all the foot wedding, ask Abby first.
10:01No, it's nothing like that.
10:02Look, Chas, two teeth over here, yeah?
10:04Yeah, you can come and fetch them when they're ready.
10:06I want some more juice, please.
10:11Aw, one's enough, Poppet.
10:13Aw, come on, one more won't hurt.
10:15Well, I'm spent up.
10:17The joys of single motherhood.
10:19Yeah, Belle and Sam were asking if you had an address for Nate so they could send him a birthday card.
10:23Is it Daddy's birthday? Is he coming home?
10:26Erm, I'm afraid Daddy's really busy, darling.
10:29I want to see you.
10:31I know you do.
10:33Hopefully soon, yeah?
10:34Tell you what, I'd like to get that orange juice for you, on the house.
10:37Thanks.
10:38Hey, after this, we could make Daddy a birthday card, can't we?
10:41Yay!
10:46Sorry, I wasn't thinking.
10:48She's OK, most of the time.
10:50It's just any mention of her dad, I don't like to get her hopes up.
10:53You've not heard anything?
10:55Not a word.
10:57Have any of you lot heard from Nate?
10:59We'd say if we had.
11:00Not if he'd told you not to.
11:01Honestly, we don't know anything.
11:04Don't.
11:04Oh, my God.
11:34Oh, my God.
12:04Go on, then. What's your big, bright idea?
12:07Shh, no.
12:08There's no idea.
12:10I just wanted to have a private word.
12:11About what?
12:12This sudden engagement.
12:14Look, I'm just worried that you've not been thinking it through.
12:17I thought you liked it, have you?
12:19Yeah, I do.
12:21You know, yesterday you were telling her that you don't want to be a dad.
12:24Now you're leaping in me both feet.
12:25It's like I can't keep up.
12:26No, just panicking on her.
12:27Overthinking it.
12:28I've been speaking to her.
12:29I feel better about it.
12:30Can you assure it's absolutely what you want?
12:32A hundred percent, Mum.
12:42Mac, hi.
12:45No.
12:47What?
12:48Right, right, we're coming.
12:50We're coming.
12:50What's wrong?
12:51Erm, Liam.
12:52He's been attacked.
12:53What?
12:53I know, erm, Mandy, can you mind the bar, please?
12:55Come on.
12:59Oh, John, thank God.
13:00What?
13:01Liam's been attacked at the allotment.
13:03I'm kidding.
13:03Who was it?
13:03Don't know.
13:04Mac found him.
13:04Come on, we need your help.
13:05Wait, wait, wait, wait.
13:06You wait here, I'll see what I can do.
13:07No, we're coming with you.
13:09I'm going to need space to assess his injuries.
13:11The fewer people hanging around, the better.
13:12We're not people.
13:13I'm his fiancée.
13:14We're coming with you.
13:22Hi.
13:23All right?
13:24Why haven't you shown up at the garage?
13:26Are you avoiding me?
13:27No, I, erm, I just need a bit of time to myself today, that's all.
13:30I get that.
13:35Is he in the dogg house and all?
13:37I'm guessing not.
13:38Why do you say that?
13:38I saw you kissing.
13:41Look, it wasn't what you think.
13:42But you're not denying it?
13:44Denying what?
13:45You and her.
13:46I saw you together.
13:47I need to speak to Sarah, alone.
13:50Yeah, of course you do.
13:58How are you doing today?
14:00Much better, thanks to you.
14:05I, erm, I guess we ought to talk about what happened.
14:09Yeah, look, the thing is, Jacob, erm,
14:11it wasn't really like that.
14:14Wasn't it?
14:15Well, no, you, you were upset.
14:17We both were.
14:18It was just two mates being there for each other.
14:23You kissed me.
14:25I know, but it wasn't that sort of kiss, was it?
14:27I didn't mean to give you the wrong idea.
14:28And I'm still here if you ever need a friendly chat, but,
14:31well, you know.
14:33Yeah.
14:34Yeah, of course.
14:35I'll see you.
14:38Yeah.
14:43You can go after him if you want.
14:45Right, what makes you say that?
14:46It's obvious, isn't it, you still want to be with him.
14:48No, I've literally just told him I don't.
14:50I don't believe you.
14:51Yesterday, I know what I saw.
14:52What you saw was me being nice to Jacob because he was upset.
14:55Nah, even more than that.
14:56Thought you were really into me, but clearly you've still got a thing for him.
14:59No, I haven't.
15:00I get it.
15:00You and him, you break up, you get back together.
15:02I feel like I'm caught in the middle of something,
15:04and it's not where I want to be, so, er,
15:07let's call it quits, yeah?
15:08Hang on, you're breaking up with me, seriously?
15:10Yeah, I've been here before, and it never ends well, so, yeah.
15:17So, how did it happen?
15:19I don't know.
15:19One minute I was fine, and then next minute somebody knocked me out.
15:24Thank God Mackenzie was there to find me.
15:26Did you not see who did it?
15:28No, they hit me from behind.
15:32Well, luckily it's not a deep cut.
15:35I don't think you'll need stitches.
15:37How's your vision?
15:38Er, you know,
15:40any, er, headache, nausea?
15:43Headache, definitely.
15:44No nausea.
15:45Oh, you're a John who saves the day again.
15:47And what's the problem with that?
15:50Well, you don't seem to be concussed.
15:53No, I feel, er, okay, all things considered.
15:55Right, well, we need to get you checked out properly at the hospital.
15:57Oh, no, please.
15:59Can't be sitting in A&E for hours on end.
16:01Well, needs must, eh?
16:02Did you not see anyone?
16:04No, no, he was on the ground when I got here.
16:08What?
16:09Sorry, do you think I did this?
16:10Of course not.
16:11Well, someone did.
16:13Well, I wasn't aware I had any enemies.
16:15Well, there is Ella.
16:17I mean, she's up in court soon for threatening Mandy, right?
16:21Maybe she was out for revenge.
16:22You think?
16:23Well, I won't put her past her.
16:24You know what?
16:24We'll call the police on the way to the hospital.
16:27Well, thank you, anyway.
16:29Just doing my job.
16:30Still, I'm sorry to drag you from your suit, man.
16:33What, you're ill?
16:34Er, well, I just had a bit of a bug.
16:36I'm fine, though.
16:38Come on, let's get each other down.
16:41Can I have a quick word with you in private?
16:43Not in a minute, no.
16:46Right.
16:47I should probably get off as well.
16:49Right, well, you've changed your tune, haven't you?
16:51You've been texting the phone in all the morning.
16:52Now all of a sudden you can't get away quick enough.
16:54Well, I thought you wanted space.
16:55John, we're never going to be able to move on if we keep avoiding each other, are we?
17:00Just, let's come home, will you?
17:04I'd like that.
17:12A gift from a very satisfied client.
17:16Is it too early to drink?
17:18Nah.
17:20You OK?
17:21Yeah, Billy's taking the kids to London.
17:23OK, and that's bad news.
17:26Well, I'll miss them.
17:28How long have they gone for?
17:29Just a few days.
17:31So you won't have to miss them for very long?
17:32No, I know, but I wasn't invited.
17:34And I know I shouldn't be invited, I wouldn't go anyway.
17:36It's just weird, isn't it?
17:37It's like a sign of things to come.
17:41A broken family.
17:43Are you having regrets?
17:44I'm having regrets about sharing my kids.
17:49Is that selfish?
17:50Well, they have to learn to spend time with both of you, don't they?
17:53Yeah.
17:55And plus, co-parenting, not too much of a bad thing, is it?
18:00I mean, Billy's got the kids.
18:03Kim is at a meeting in Harrogate, which means you and I have the place to ourselves.
18:09We shouldn't waste it.
18:10Oh, wow, patched up already.
18:16Fortunately, A&E wasn't that busy.
18:19So it's definitely Ella who attacked you again?
18:22Reckon so.
18:23We don't know that for sure.
18:24But you're okay?
18:25Bit battered and bruised, but nothing I can't handle.
18:28Will you stop pretending to be brave, please?
18:29Because it really doesn't suit you.
18:31Come on.
18:31So I've told Sarah that I'm going to stop interfering, okay?
18:39But you mess her about, you'll have me to answer to.
18:42There is no me and Sarah anymore.
18:44Really?
18:45Don't pretend you're not chuffed.
18:49You.
18:51Next time you're not the big man, don't.
18:54I'm sorry.
18:56The race was a stupid idea.
19:00I feel like I've been a mess recently since losing my mum.
19:05I'm so sorry.
19:06You and me both.
19:08If I'd known that.
19:09There's still no excuse for how I behaved.
19:11I'm our Leah Saint.
19:13Look, let's agree from now when we stop winding each other up.
19:16Sounds good to me.
19:18And I'll stop chasing after Sarah.
19:20She's yours if you want.
19:22I've binned her off.
19:24Why would you do that?
19:25I don't think she really cared about me.
19:27You were right.
19:28I was just a rebound guy.
19:30If that were true, then she wouldn't have kicked me into touch.
19:32My guess is she'll come running back to you in a few days.
19:34Nah, she made a choice.
19:36It's time to move on.
19:38And I'm sorry.
19:40Again.
19:41No hard feelings?
19:49Did you find Ella?
19:51She wasn't at home when the colleague called round.
19:54Well, then you need to keep looking.
19:55We will.
19:57Are you, uh, absolutely sure it was Miss Forster who attacked you?
20:01Well, I didn't get a good look.
20:04Who else could it be?
20:05You know what?
20:06I should never have dropped those spiking allegations.
20:08I left her off the hook as well.
20:09I really thought she'd be gone for good this time.
20:13Well, that's wishful thinking, isn't it?
20:15She does have form for turning up out of the blue and wreaking havoc.
20:18She wants locking up.
20:19Well, we haven't yet established it was her who attacked Dr. Kavanagh.
20:21Well, who else is demented enough to do it?
20:23I should have told you the truth about Aidan right from the start.
20:47Yeah, you should.
20:49But I suppose we all cope with stuff in our own way, don't we?
20:52So am I forgiving?
20:56I wouldn't go that far.
20:58It's gonna take me a while to get my head around all this, but today proved that you're not
21:05all that bad, so I'm not giving up on you yet.
21:10Thanks.
21:11Thanks.
21:12This morning, I thought I'd lost you forever.
21:20Mac interfering didn't help.
21:22He might have been a bit out of order, but he was looking out for me.
21:27So just let it go.
21:29Sorry.
21:30Sorry.
21:31You're right.
21:32You and me are what matters.
21:36From now on, I'm gonna do everything I can to prove I'm someone you can trust.
21:46And we're off to Weatherfield for tonight's Coronation Street next.
22:13We'll see you next time.
22:14Bye.
22:15Bye.
22:16Bye.
22:17Bye.
22:18Bye.
22:19Bye.
