00:00Hello, darling. You had a bad night? Surprised you got any sleep without Fraser
00:17turning up. Look, have you thought any more about going to the police?
00:22I told you yesterday. All right, all right. Look, you'd better
00:26go and get ready. You don't want to be late. You've forgotten, haven't you? Annie's dentist
00:33appointment. Well, look, you've got enough on your plate. I can get her ready.
00:38She's forgot. I can still make it. Forgot what?
00:40I can take her for you, darling. No, I'm her mum. I can take her to the dentist.
00:49Ayesha is totally comfortable with who she is. And she hasn't abandoned her culture.
00:54I know. I was with you when she was talking about it last night.
00:57No, she's so inspiring. Makes me think about the years I wasted.
01:01Hey, don't ever say you wasted anything. You were a mum, you ran businesses,
01:08you did everything on your own. You know what it's... you didn't know about then.
01:12It's just taken you a while to get here. Look at you. You're where you're meant to be.
01:18You were a bit quiet last night. Yeah. I didn't want to butt in on the reunion.
01:28You know, you two have got a lot to talk about and chatting away like you'd never been apart.
01:34You know, ages ago, you said that you two were close and that she was the first woman that you
01:41had feelings for. So was it... was it weird? Must have felt weird seeing her again.
01:48Yeah, but she didn't know I had feelings for her. Yeah. And nothing ever happened.
01:54It was so long ago. I would like to see her again, catch up properly. If you're okay with that?
02:04You don't need my permission. You know, it's good if you get some gay friends and
02:11especially ones from the same background. You've had enough people stopping you doing
02:18what you want and I don't want to do that to you. What did I do to deserve you?
02:22I am pretty special. It's true.
02:30Yeah, Lou's been watching some of the summer festivals on TV. He's loving it. I'm gonna
02:36take him to his first gig. You know, a bit of dad and son bonding time. You listening?
02:41Yeah, uh, Lou, you want to be a pop star?
02:45Listen, I've got a meeting later with a new supplier. I reckon I can get us a pretty good
02:49deal, but I need a bit of time to prepare. So would you mind if I head off?
02:53No, no, sounds great. Yeah, no, no, I'm good. Thanks a lot.
02:59What's a nice bloke like you doing in a place like this?
03:02Who said anything that nice?
03:05Right, well, uh, have a free evening if you want to show me how I got that wrong.
03:09I'd love to, but I've got a call with Xavier. Can't miss it.
03:15What time? Six.
03:17And because of the time difference in Dubai, I can't make it till later. He'll be in bed.
03:21His birthday's coming up. I need to ask him what he wants.
03:25Before six, then. I'll ask Peter to cover. I've got very important business to attend to.
03:32Very important. Look, I've got no meetings today, so come over when you can.
03:38Great. See you later.
03:40See ya.
03:45Don't forget about your dialysis session this afternoon.
03:48Yeah, I know. Happy with it.
03:49Thank you, baby.
03:50Gotta make sure you're on time and keep you entertained, innit?
03:53Then I'll pick you both up straight after, yeah?
03:56I can take her. Her dad's busy.
03:58We don't need your help.
03:59He doesn't need you speaking up for him, yeah? You can't stop me from seeing my son.
04:04You're kicking off in the street? That's classy.
04:07Lucky he doesn't have enough stress to deal with without having a mum like you.
04:16Don't let your mum get to you.
04:18Yeah, you're doing really well.
04:21And we're all so proud of you.
04:22Proud of what? All I do is sit there for hours. I ain't like some superhero.
04:27Let's wish you stopped going on about it, yeah?
04:33I'm sorry, but what is there that you can't say in front of Annie?
04:37Can I ask you about Annie's diet and how often she's brushing?
04:42Well, I don't let her have many sweets, if that's what you mean.
04:45But when she brushes her teeth, twice a day.
04:48Is something wrong?
04:50I'm afraid Annie's not feeling well.
04:52I'm afraid she's not feeling well.
04:54I'm afraid she's not feeling well.
04:56I'm afraid she's not feeling well.
04:58I'm afraid she's not feeling well.
05:00I'm afraid she's not feeling well.
05:02I'm afraid Annie's teeth are a bit of a mess.
05:05I'd say we're looking at her needing four removed.
05:08Four?
05:09Some of her other teeth are also at risk.
05:11So we really need to get her dental care back on track.
05:17Children's teeth can sometimes get neglected when there are things going on in the family.
05:23Is everything all right at home?
05:26Well, things haven't been easy for a while, but we've been managing.
05:32It's just that I thought I smelt alcohol on you earlier.
05:36I run a pub.
05:38Yeah, I do smell like a brewery half the time.
05:42Will she have to have them taken out today?
05:44I'm afraid I'll have to refer her to hospital.
05:46With her being so young and it being several teeth,
05:48she'll have it done under a general anaesthetic.
05:51It's not great, but they'll have babies soon.
05:54So it shouldn't affect her adulting.
05:57I should warn you, the waiting list is about six months,
05:59but I'll do the referral for you now.
06:04If you do need any help or support for yourself,
06:07I can give you some information leaflets.
06:11Bye.
06:17Hey, Murray.
06:18All right?
06:19Hey.
06:19Can I get a flat white, please?
06:20I appreciate it.
06:21Are they getting on well?
06:24Yeah.
06:25Yeah, it's good to see your mum.
06:26So I'm happy.
06:27Vinnie.
06:28Vinnie, come.
06:29You remember my son Vinnie, don't you?
06:31He didn't get a chance to meet you yesterday,
06:32personally.
06:33Well, I do remember a toddler.
06:36Look at you all grown up.
06:38And a successful businessman.
06:40He's having a good catch-up?
06:41Yeah.
06:42Oh, I hope you don't mind me stealing her.
06:44It's just, it's so good to talk after so long.
06:47Yeah, of course.
06:48Why don't you join us?
06:49Yes, come.
06:50No.
06:50Oh, come on.
06:51No, you need some time on your own.
06:52Oh, there's plenty of time for that.
06:53Come on.
06:54You too, Vinnie.
06:55Oh, I've got to go to an important meeting.
06:57I'm sorry.
06:57Achha, bohot important ka?
07:00Ji, aunty.
07:02Mere war gaya?
07:04I'll see you later.
07:09And Aisha was telling me about her letters business in Manchester.
07:13Sounds like it's going brilliantly.
07:14Well, it's nothing compared to what you've achieved,
07:16building all those businesses by yourself.
07:19Always been a steely one, our Sukhvinder.
07:22There was this time with this dodgy window cleaner.
07:24Oh, no, no, no, no.
07:25We don't need to tell that story.
07:27Oh, no, we don't.
07:29No, no, I'm getting death stares.
07:30I'd better not.
07:32Do you know, I never asked you last night,
07:34what line of work are you in?
07:37Stacy's Babs.
07:39It's a bab bun on the market.
07:42I mean, I did, used to be a lawyer.
07:44Ah, why the change?
07:47That's a long story.
07:48Well, people won't always need babs.
07:53Sukhi tells me that you used to run a lettings agency
07:56in London with Hardy.
07:58Yeah, but I sold out after he died.
08:01But do you know, part of me regrets selling the business down here.
08:07Well, there's nothing stopping you from expanding.
08:09You could set up in London again.
08:11I could always help you out.
08:13We've got to support other women in businesses, haven't we?
08:15If you can spare the time, that would be great, if that's okay.
08:21Yeah, I mean, Sukhi's a talented woman.
08:23It would be rude of me to keep her to myself.
08:26It would just be nice to help out an old friend.
08:29Well, I should pay you for your time.
08:34Well, let me fill you in on the gossip then.
08:37Okay, go on.
08:38Right, now, do you remember Shamila?
08:43She went and married the son.
08:56Hiya.
08:59Did you manage to get the ring from the jewellers?
09:01I don't know how to tell you this, but I'm really sorry.
09:05I don't have the ring anymore.
09:08When I was on the way to the jewellers yesterday, I got mugged.
09:12What?
09:15Are you okay?
09:16No, I'm fine.
09:17I'm fine.
09:19I feel terrible.
09:20I mean, they were so fast.
09:22I'm so sorry, Samira.
09:23No, it's all right.
09:25It's silly, as long as you're okay.
09:27Did they take anything else?
09:28No, no, it's just the ring.
09:30I stupidly took it out of my pocket just before I went in.
09:34We're not having much luck, are we?
09:39I've reported it, but you know how busy the police are.
09:42I doubt we'll get it back.
09:44Well, let's have faith that we might.
09:46And if we don't, you know, we'll buy a new ring,
09:49and that'll be the one that we can pass down to our family.
09:52As long as we've got each other.
09:54It's all that matters, eh?
10:13Hey, Cindy.
10:14We've run out of cleaning spray at the chippy.
10:15Is there any chance...
10:16Help yourself.
10:17Thanks.
10:18You haven't seen your brother, have you?
10:20He's supposed to be doing a shift for me today,
10:21and he's not answering his phone.
10:23He's on his way to meet some new supplier.
10:25He said he's going to be gone all afternoon.
10:27What?
10:27If he told me he'd be gone that long,
10:29I wouldn't have agreed to it in the first place.
10:31We really need more staff.
10:32And with your dad being gone, I'm just stuck here on my own.
10:35Yeah, yeah.
10:37If there was anything I could do to help, then I would.
10:39Actually, you can cover for me.
10:41I've got to get back to the chippy.
10:42Well, Freddy can manage on his own, Connie.
10:45Please, Bobby, I really need to be somewhere later.
10:47I haven't had any training.
10:48Well, you can start now.
10:54Uh, okay.
10:56I should just check with Dad first, shouldn't I?
10:58Just to see if he's okay.
10:59You don't need his permission.
11:01Or are you undermining me as a woman?
11:04No, no, no, no.
11:05Of course not.
11:05I love women.
11:06It's just that I don't do well with change,
11:09and it's a lot of pressure.
11:11Look, you can see this as a great opportunity to surprise your dad.
11:14You know, show him how well you can manage the family business.
11:17Come on, Bobby.
11:18It's a few eels and a few pies.
11:22You got this.
11:25Here you go.
11:31How was Annie's appointment at the dentist?
11:32Do they still give you a sticker for being brave?
11:36Annie needs to have some teeth out.
11:41Some?
11:43Four.
11:46What, you've been letting her loose on sweets again or something?
11:48Of course not.
11:49What, do you think I can't look after my own kid?
11:51Four teeth, Linda!
11:53I...
11:54I didn't realise that I'd sometimes missed brushing her teeth.
12:00We've been so busy worrying about you,
12:01we've taken our eyes off the kids.
12:04This is Dean's fault.
12:06All of it.
12:07Well, how's Ollie's teeth then?
12:08Oh, he's fine, all right?
12:09He's been brushing his own teeth long before Dean turned up here again.
12:12Okay, Mum.
12:14When can they...
12:15When can they take the teeth out?
12:17They need to be done in a hospital in the dentist if there's a wait in, Liz.
12:20Okay, well then we'll just go private.
12:22That'll cost a fortune.
12:23Yeah, we'll find the money.
12:24Right, I'll put it on a credit card if I have to.
12:27Darling, four teeth.
12:28I'll get online and I'll book an appointment.
12:32It's my fault.
12:36I can't believe I've let this happen to her.
12:38Maybe it's a blessing in disguise.
12:41It'll give you the motivation to get off the booze.
12:44Yeah, and from now on, the rest of us can help with the kids, okay?
12:49I know this is all just because of the trial, Mum.
12:51You are under a lot of pressure.
12:54But it's just a few more weeks now.
12:55We are nearly there.
12:57Everything is going to be different after.
13:01You coming out in the barrel store, please?
13:04Yeah.
13:20Can you meet me?
13:22I need to talk.
13:26Tell me you're being left.
13:27Are you still worrying about this Aisha, are you?
13:30Miss, do you?
13:31Oh, Trace, thank you so much.
13:33You're a lifesaver.
13:33Tell Elaine that I'll just replace the lot in the morning.
13:36Will do.
13:40I think it's just a few more weeks.
13:42Yeah, it's just a few more weeks.
13:43It's just a few more weeks.
13:44It's just a few more weeks.
13:45It's just a few more weeks.
13:46It's just a few more weeks.
13:47It's just a few more weeks.
13:48I think it's just Nish.
13:50No, he's getting in my ear.
13:51It's just stirring.
13:53You know better than to listen to him.
13:55Eve, I've never seen you this insecure before.
14:01Sikki's the one, the first one, that's really cut through.
14:05I mean, before her, you know I've been in love.
14:10I've had long-term relationships,
14:12but I think I've always sabotaged them.
14:14You know, just sort of messed them up on purpose.
14:17Ditch them before they ditch you.
14:20When I lost Erica, I felt like,
14:23oh, if you can lose your twin just like that,
14:26you can lose anyone.
14:27So I lost her, and then Mum and Dad wanted nothing to do with me,
14:31and I thought, well, there's no point in clinging on to anyone, you know?
14:37They're all going to leave you at some point.
14:42I'm a therapist's dream, aren't I?
14:44Sikki ain't going to leave you.
14:46She risked everything to be with you.
14:48She ain't about to throw that away.
14:52Thanks, mate.
14:53I'm sorry for stressing you out.
14:55Oh, sure.
14:56What a wife score, eh?
14:57Hey, I'll get that.
15:06So that's liquor on the top or on the side?
15:09Oh, Bobby, it's not rocket science.
15:10You're beaten in here.
15:11Well, I wasn't really concentrating.
15:13Oh, can we just go over how much parsley is in the liquor sauce?
15:17One more time, please.
15:18Oh, and the pile of pies thing.
15:20I still don't really get that.
15:21Look, you're panicking too much.
15:23Just take a deep breath.
15:24It'll all come back to you.
15:25What was it you said about the exact temperature of the oven?
15:28It was 180 degrees.
15:29No, no, no, no, no, 200 degrees.
15:31200 degrees.
15:32That's it?
15:35I probably need a couple more shifts with you just to get my head round it.
15:38No, you don't.
15:39You can run this ship on your own.
15:41You were fine in the chippy, and you're going to be fine here,
15:43which is great because you start now.
15:45Now? On my own?
15:47Yeah.
15:48I'm really impressed with you, Bobby.
15:49I'm so impressed I'm promoting you to manager.
15:52Congratulations.
15:53Thanks, but shouldn't we check with Dad and Peter first before...
15:58Are you undermining me again?
15:59I thought you believed in equality.
16:01No, no, no, no.
16:02Yeah, yeah, I do.
16:03I really believe in it.
16:04Good, then you can accept my decision.
16:05We'll discuss pay later.
16:08Cindy, I don't think I can do this.
16:10It's only going to be for a couple of hours.
16:12We close at six o'clock.
16:14It's been really quiet today.
16:16You'll be fine.
16:20I think it's really great you're getting the call sent out.
16:26It's not that I'm not grateful,
16:28but Dad, I was serious when I said I'm not interested in any of the businesses.
16:34I know what I'm doing here.
16:36I ain't got a clue about pest control.
16:38I've run the place before.
16:41I can take it if it's going to be a hassle for you.
16:44No, no.
16:45No, he can learn the ropes.
16:47It'll be good for him to have a new challenge.
16:50Probably.
16:52And you won't have time for the call centre.
16:55I told you, I've got other things in mind for you.
16:59Whatever you want, Dad.
17:01It's good to see you're so enthusiastic.
17:03It's just...
17:05What are you thinking?
17:06Just so I can prepare, maybe.
17:09All in good time, son.
17:11I wouldn't want to ruin the surprise for my youngest.
17:16So...
17:18I saw that Aisha was back today.
17:20And she came back to see Mum.
17:22Just to catch up?
17:24Yeah.
17:26They're getting on really well.
17:28Mum texted me to say they'd gone to the Goodwile at Skatefield.
17:30Mum texted me to say they'd gone to the Goodwile at Skatefield.
17:34Oh, that's great.
17:37You know, I didn't get Aisha's forgiveness.
17:39But then I never thought I would.
17:42But I did get to say sorry.
17:43And because of that, your mother has been reunited with one of her oldest friends.
17:48How nice that they're getting on so well.
17:53Thanks for meeting me.
17:54It's all right.
17:56Popped off from work a bit early.
17:58Surprised to get your call, though.
17:59Is everything okay?
18:01I wanted to ask you...
18:05How much of the case is resting on my evidence?
18:09All your evidence is definitely going to help.
18:12But there's a load of other evidence, you know, stacked against him.
18:17You know, he was caught in possession of the weapon.
18:19He had a fallout with Karen before he died.
18:21And he was doing a run at the Estates.
18:23I mean, that's all got to mean something, innit?
18:25So the prosecution aren't basing their whole case on me?
18:28Well, that's hard to say.
18:29But in your experience?
18:33Look, in my experience, eyewitness accounts can really sway the jury.
18:37The thought of taking that stand...
18:40I'm really scared.
18:41Look, I know you're nervous.
18:43But you've got that pre-interview, and that's going to really help.
18:46And then, when you're facing that scumbag in the court,
18:49you're going to remember why you want to get him sent out.
18:51No. No, I am dreading facing him.
18:54I am dreading the cross-examination.
18:56All of it.
18:56I'm going to fall to pieces, Jack. I know it.
18:58Look, Linda.
18:59If it was only your eyewitness account, then yes.
19:01All right? There'd be a lot of pressure on you.
19:03I mean, you could take that stand,
19:05go through all of this, and there's no guarantee that he's going to get sent down.
19:10All right? The bottom line is the outcome of this case, it isn't all on you.
19:17Oh, thank you.
19:26I can't tell you how good it is to see the pair of you laughing and joking together.
19:31Getting close again.
19:32Come on.
19:33Vinnie tells me you went to the Gurdwara together.
19:36That's brilliant.
19:37Two out gay women,
19:40no longer hiding from the whispers and the pointing fingers.
19:44You know, seeing you both like this now,
19:47I can't believe I never spotted the chemistry.
19:50I must be an idiot.
19:53Hadid would be happy to see you like this.
19:55How dare you?
19:57How dare you even mention his name?
19:59Don't let him get to you.
20:02He's a dying man,
20:04and he's going to die just the way he lived his whole life,
20:07trying to make people miserable and failing even at that.
20:17What are you doing here?
20:28I was coming over to you.
20:30Yeah, well, I couldn't stop thinking about yesterday.
20:34Being here.
20:36You alone?
20:38Not for long.
20:44But it's a vintage ring.
20:46Diamonds either side of an oval cup.
20:47Maybe it's worth a lot.
20:51Well, no, that's just not enough.
20:53Thank you for your offer.
20:55Bye-bye.
21:00Have a latte, please, Marie.
21:06I just bumped into Suki and Aisha.
21:09Oh, it's lovely, isn't it?
21:13Have you got nothing better to do?
21:16Well, I'm genuinely really pleased for them.
21:19You know that they went to the Gurdwara together.
21:23But I'm guessing that's something that you'll never have in common with Suki.
21:27The religion, the culture.
21:31I am sure you've read a bit here and there and you love the food, but
21:36it's not the same as being from the same background, is it?
21:40Never will be.
21:42Why do you care so much?
21:46Well, I know that you won't believe me, but
21:54I'd hate to think that me accidentally bringing them together
21:59might drive a wedge in between you and Suki.
22:03You two have been through so much to be together.
22:05I know.
22:06I fought it.
22:08And seeing how happy you both are now, well,
22:13I realise that was never right for her.
22:16But that look that I saw in Suki's eyes when I saw her with Aisha today,
22:26just take it from somebody who knows.
22:31I've seen it before.
22:32Do one, Nish.
22:41And I know that look that I'm seeing in your eyes, too.
22:46There.
22:48A little bit of doubt.
22:57I know what it feels like when she starts to slip away.
23:01And you can fight it all that you want, but that sick feeling in your stomach
23:07is telling you something.
23:08And it's telling me that I have had an earful of you.
23:18Well, if you're really okay with them getting to know each other again,
23:20then fair play to you.
23:24I know I wouldn't be.
23:33Well, I could pop by now, you know, but before you close.
23:38I mean, I don't have any kind of certification, either, but the ring's decades old.
23:42But that'll affect your evaluation that much.
23:46All right, I see.
23:47Thanks.
23:49Bye-bye.
23:53Rhys.
23:57I think we might be able to help each other out.
24:06Mum was right.
24:08This thing with Annie's teeth is a wake-up call.
24:12I need to sort myself out.
24:16I'm gonna stop drinking.
24:18But the only way I can do that is to move on from Dean.
24:24So I'm gonna take his deal.
24:27You can't.
24:28I'm not taking that stand.
24:29Right, Dean is the reason I started drinking again.
24:32I can't have this trial hanging over me any longer.
24:34What, and risk getting done for perverting the course of justice?
24:37And being charged with murder?
24:38If you take this deal, the whole investigation could be reopened.
24:41I'm willing to take that risk.
24:43This is madness.
24:44Mum, you are not thinking straight.
24:45I have made up my mind.
24:47Right, nothing's gonna change it.
25:02Just a social visit, then?
25:04Oh, I'm here to see Phil.
25:06Well, I hope it's not to tell him that you still haven't got any money for him.
25:09Because I think you've had quite enough Mitchell goodwill, don't you?
25:13I've got his money.
25:14A £2,000 return on his investment, as promised.
25:17Well, what are you waiting for, then?
25:18I'm sure he'd be very pleased to see you.
25:20Reckon he'd even get his best china out for you.
25:31Here, I'll give it to him.
25:36It is, it's all there.
25:38And it better be.
25:39Oh, I didn't know what I'm doing when it comes to investments.
25:42Oh, I told Phil it'd come good.
25:44Well, if that's the case, I'll be sure to tell Phil and Sharon
25:48to look forward to an even better return next time.
25:51Word to the wife.
25:52Shouldn't swing me sharks.
25:54She's still wearing armbands.
25:56I hope you don't mind, but I shouldn't seem to have any plans this evening, so...
25:59It's fine.
26:01Makes me feel so brilliant about all this.
26:02Of course.
26:13I've got a feeling there's a number of pies.
26:15Hey.
26:19I've got a feeling there's a number of pies.
26:27Your little chat earlier, just so you know,
26:31you're not getting inside my head.
26:34In fact, you might have done me a favour.
26:41I've got a feeling there's a number of pies.
26:46I've got a feeling there's a number of pies.
26:51Uh, are you getting them drinks here in a while?
26:52Yep, in a minute.
26:53Oh, I'll get them.
26:55I'll get Tracey.
26:56Oh, all right, yeah.
27:03Suki?
27:09May I tell you Pierre Cardin, huh?
27:11Or as you say up north?
27:15I proper love you.
27:21Okay.
27:28What's going on?
27:42Will you marry me?
