00:10THE END
00:12THE END
00:14Mind me again why it's my job to paint the windowsills?
00:16We've got a business to run.
00:18Because you've got to paint the rents somehow?
00:20Oh, don't worry. These pants it'll run out.
00:22Oh, mother, please. It's bad enough watching you two mooning over your cornflakes.
00:24No, no, Harvey, you can't just slap it on willingly.
00:26You've got to wash the paintwork down first with soapy water.
00:28Yeah, I've done this before, Ian.
00:30Can you call me?
00:32Yeah, look, I know I can't just talk to him.
00:34Yes, I know it's a detention centre.
00:38I just want you to get a message to him, that's all.
00:40Just tell him that I'm sorting out a place for when he gets out.
00:44And that I love him.
00:46That's in a bad way.
00:48Not as bad as Vicky looks after what his son did to her.
00:52Well, exactly.
00:54He was told to attack Vicky, not Ross.
00:56He was just, you know, protecting his son.
00:58Well, he failed, didn't he, Harvey?
01:00Because if he had a done, Vicky wouldn't have had seven bells beaten out of her.
01:02It's never that simple, is it?
01:04Doesn't it?
01:06Right, he looks pretty simple to me.
01:08Well, hey.
01:10How's it?
01:12Well, hey.
01:14How's it?
01:16It's a shame we can't get no ventilation in here.
01:18I've been treating you well.
01:20Yeah, man.
01:22I'm saying!
01:24What?
01:25You forgot already!
01:26It was a shame you can't get no ventilation in here.
01:27Where are you?
01:28Huh?
01:30Well, hey.
01:31How's it?
01:32How's it?
01:33Shima can't get no ventilation in here?
01:35I've been treating you well.
01:37Yeah, man.
01:39I've been treating you well.
01:41Yeah, man.
01:43Yeah.
01:44What, you forgotten already?
01:46I was like, yeah, you're going to your brain and make you weak.
01:49Ravi's gone.
01:51I'm in charge, yeah?
01:53You're a junk.
01:55Gina don't seem to think so.
01:58Yeah, she's been out all night texting me.
02:02What is it?
02:03I meet you at the Vic at 1.
02:06She loves putting them heart and mortgages as well, don't you?
02:09Stay away from her white uncle.
02:12Oh.
02:13The strong survive and the weak waste away to...
02:18Something like that.
02:20Natural selection though, isn't it?
02:23Anyways.
02:26Got a sprint.
02:28Don't want to keep her waiting.
02:30Oh, I know.
02:32You don't worry about Gina, yeah?
02:35You leave her to me.
02:37Get dirty and so verdunig.
02:39Shh!
02:40Shh!
02:41Shh!
02:42Shh!
02:44Shh!
02:45Shh!
02:46Shh!
02:48Shh!

03:00Shh!
03:01Shh!
03:02Shh!
03:03Shh!
03:04No, no, it needs to be in Walford, I need to be near my boy.
03:16Yeah, yeah, thanks for nothing.
03:19Hey, don't stop on my account.
03:28I'm gonna watch Cathy don't catch you talking to me.
03:34I remember when Aaron was a kid, he used to take me and watch Spurs play.
03:44His face when they scored.
03:48That joy, like he was low in, you know, I wish I could have bowed it.
03:56And then, he was gone.
04:00And I try to remember the exact moment when I lost it.
04:06I play it over and over in my head.
04:09And then I do.
04:12It makes me so angry.
04:14So hateful.
04:15Anyway, mate, you, er, you must be exhausted.
04:25You don't know what way's up right now, but, you know, once the dust has settled and you've found your feet.
04:30There's a fact to answer that.
04:35There's no flats going, and...
04:38And right now, me bed's a bench in the sympathy yard.
04:42Well then come and stay with us.
04:47At least for a few days.
04:48Cathy's not gonna want me anywhere near here, mate.
04:52Yeah.
04:54She's angry, but she's not unreasonable.
04:57I will swear it.
05:04I don't know what to say.
05:06Yeah.
05:07Get your stuff.
05:08Right.
05:17Oh.
05:18Hiya.
05:19Oh, hi.
05:20How is everything?
05:21Yeah.
05:22He's having a good day today.
05:23Thanks for yesterday.
05:25Can I make it up to you?
05:27Oh, it's no need.
05:28No, I'd like to.
05:29Can I meet you down the vic later?
05:30Yep.
05:31Okay, lovely.
05:32Great.
05:33Text you.
05:34Okay.
05:37You're a very lucky boy.
05:42Just spoke to Lauren.
05:43She says she can get nine grand for the Morris.
05:46You're kidding.
05:47Well, she said eight, but...
05:49I know we can get her up.
05:51Result, eh?
05:53Oh, what? You're joking.
05:54What's happened now?
05:55The end of my career.
05:56That is what has happened.
05:57So, yesterday in the Albert,
05:59I wrote a draft business proposal
06:02telling my clients
06:03that I was gonna leave the firm
06:04and to come in on my own setup.
06:05Well, when was all this?
06:06When we were three sheets to the wind.
06:08Well, it was just a draft day, right?
06:10I must have pressed send in to the safe.
06:12It went to all my contacts,
06:14including my boss.
06:15He wants me in the office
06:16and I'm already on my final warning.
06:18I was thinking of asking Jazz on a proper date.
06:22Maybe...
06:23cinema?
06:25Top ten rom-coms of all time.
06:28Which do you think you like the most?
06:30Hello.
06:31Who are you, maestro?
06:32I'm sorry.
06:33Hmm?
06:34I was just, um...
06:36thinking about the old car,
06:40you know...
06:41freedom,
06:42open road.
06:44Won't have that ever again.
06:46Mm-mm.
06:48But...
06:50they haven't taken your licence away yet,
06:52have they?
06:53What do you reckon?
06:54One last spin.
06:59Look, Ross wouldn't dare show his face round here.
07:01And if he does,
07:02you'll get my still letter on his bribe.
07:04There you go.
07:05Thanks, girl.
07:06How'd you get on?
07:07All arranged.
07:10What's arranged?
07:11We're taking you away for a few days.
07:14Mm-hmm.
07:19Lake District.
07:22You could've asked me.
07:26Look,
07:27being in the house where it happened,
07:28it's...
07:29it's not gonna help you heal, darling.
07:31Yeah.
07:32A few days away,
07:33a bit of fresh air,
07:34it does all the world of good.
07:37I wonder where he slept last night.
07:39It's not your problem, darling.
07:43I can't just switch off my feelings.
07:44Vicky,
07:45you have been dealing with this for months.
07:48By the time you started looking after number one.
07:50You need this, Vicky.
07:52By the time we get back,
07:53Ross and that son of his will be long gone.
07:56What do you say?
07:58Come here.
08:02Here, Nan.
08:04Cheers.
08:05Here's Tommy.
08:06It's gonna take time, innit?
08:07It's bad to be talk of the square.
08:09He told me that job was assaulting women,
08:11filming it and posting it.
08:14Sick.
08:15Yeah, it is sick.
08:16It's a shame it took a woman getting beat into a pulp
08:18for Tommy to speak up.
08:19Put 50p in your slot.
08:21That Ross knew exactly what his son was doing
08:23and he did nothing about it.
08:25My Tommy's no saint,
08:27but he ain't to blame for what that Joel did.
08:29Sure.
08:30If he was to blame,
08:31the old Bill would have arrested him.
08:32So before you open your gob again,
08:34make sure you get your facts right.
08:35Oh, where's your action man?
08:40You're usually joined at the Ips.
08:42Oh, well he's gone AWOMO,
08:43ain't he?
08:44Not that he's missed.
08:45Takes after his granddad.
08:46Stevie had his wicked way with me
08:48and then run to the hills.
08:50Well, that's not my problem anymore.
08:52Cheers, though.
08:53I was married to a Mitchell
08:54and taken from me.
08:55You could do better.
08:56Thanks.
08:57Oh, man.
08:59You look amazing.
09:01Thanks.
09:04Right.
09:05I'll have your finest bottle of shampoos
09:07and a lemonade.
09:09Ooh, big spender.
09:10I like your style.
09:11Yeah, I'll just have a bottle of beer, though.
09:12Thanks, Kat.
09:13All right, man.
09:14OK.
09:15I'll have your finest beer and lemonade.
09:16All right.
09:18I'm going to grab us a table.
09:19I'll come over, yeah?
09:24Now, this seal is made of stone.
09:26This seal is made of wood.
09:28Yeah, I'm not blinding it.
09:29And because it is made of wood,
09:30right, you need to sand out any imperfections, OK?
09:33Then you apply the primer
09:35and then you apply two coats of paint.
09:37In the time it's taken to explain it,
09:39I could have done it.
09:41Uh, Ian.
09:43I, um...
09:44I had a chat with Ross earlier.
09:46Yeah, I'm surprised he's still around.
09:47Yeah, well, he's vulnerable.
09:49You know, he needs support.
09:51Support?
09:53I've seen Vicky's face.
09:54Look, Joel's not the first kid to get off the rails.
09:57Are you?
09:58Ooh.
09:59Still hard at it.
10:00Oh, I thought he was, uh, out for a day.
10:03No, change of plan.
10:04We're taking Vicky to the lakes for a few days, you know,
10:06for a breather.
10:09Sharon's out getting bits.
10:10Right, well,
10:11can't you get bits of the lakes?
10:13I mean,
10:14we'll get a move on that.
10:15Slow down, Harvey.
10:16What, you trying to get rid of us?
10:17What the hell are you doing here?
10:22What are you doing?
10:23Oh, no, no, no.
10:24Say you didn't.
10:25Well, I just thought...
10:26I mean, especially as you're gonna be away for a few days, son.
10:27Well, you thought wrong, okay?
10:28I don't want you anywhere near my family, all right?
10:29So, look, just...
10:30So take your rubbish and get lost, all right?
10:33Oh, yeah, there's no way for that.
10:34I don't want you or your son anywhere near Walky.
10:36You want to watch your mouth.
10:37Me?
10:38You only make it worse.
10:40And this has got nothing to do with you.
10:42Thank you, William.
11:00Okay. Please.
11:02Don't even think about it.
11:13How many of you are dads?
11:16Parents?
11:21And how many of your sons have got a mobile?
11:24Or a laptop?
11:26Do you know what they're watching right now?
11:32Do you?
11:37I mean, one minute, you're teaching them how to ride a bike,
11:40and that's scary enough, but, you know,
11:42you can't wrap them in cotton wool forever, can you?
11:46And then the next thing, you've got this twisted freak in their ear,
11:51filling their head with all this crap about what it takes to be a real man.
11:56Now, my boy did some terrible things,
12:01and I want to get my hands round his neck and I want to throttle him.
12:05And I'll ask him, how could you have been so stupid?
12:08But I turned him in.
12:13I shot my own son to the police.
12:18I handed him his laptop with all that vile stuff on it.
12:23But apparently that ain't enough of you lot.
12:26You know, you can light him off, turn your back on him.
12:32No, I can't blame you for that.
12:36But what would you do? Eh?
12:43What would you do if this was happening to your family?
12:49I did everything I could.
13:01I can't give up on John.
13:06Yeah, you're right, Ross.
13:08You did everything you could.
13:10For him.
13:11Okay.
13:12For your mum.
13:13No.
13:14But you did nothing to protect the women he abused.
13:17And you knew what your son was up to for months.
13:22You knew it, and you kept it to yourself.
13:25And now, all those women, they have to live with what your son did to them.
13:33So whatever you did, Ross, it weren't enough.
13:36Come on, Kath.
13:37That's enough now.
13:38Let's go.
13:39Let's go.
13:46You're not sitting one foot inside my house.
13:48Just... just leave.
13:50What's the point?
13:52It's always right.
13:57I am perfect.
14:12Jasmine, okay, hear me out.
14:14I was thinking we could do a date.
14:16Like, old school.
14:17I'm listening.
14:18They have a season of old classic rom-coms at the picture house.
14:21I was thinking pretty woman.
14:23Richard Gere.
14:24God broke the mould when he made that match.
14:26What, the one about the sex worker and the millionaire?
14:29Yeah, it's romantic.
14:30I could watch it on repeat.
14:31It ain't ginger ruining it.
14:33Well, it looks like you've got yourself a date.
14:36Shit.
14:39No, I grew up in Marbella.
14:41My mum and dad ran a bar, so we helped out.
14:43It's been a while, didn't it?
14:44I've got tattoos to prove it.
14:46Oh, yeah.
14:47Where?
14:50Oh, come on.
14:51You've got to show me now.
14:52No, no.
14:53This is a family-friendly pub.
14:55Alright.
14:56Nah, yeah.
14:57I get that vibe.
14:58Hey, listen.
14:59Next day, I'm taking you out west.
15:00What, the next day?
15:01Yeah.
15:02Dinner, rooftop bar, members club, you know, the finest.
15:06Alright, well, I've shown you mine, so now you've got to show me yours.
15:10You didn't show me a night-in yet.
15:12I met my family.
15:18Any night-in to sell?
15:21No, Mum.
15:23Dad, brothers, sisters.
15:27Okay, so this is just a one-way thing, is it?
15:29Where I'm kind of...
15:30I'm kind of done with the silent, moody type.
15:33So...
15:37Well, I...
15:39Didn't really know my pops until I was nine, so...
15:44Mum says he was never any good, but...
15:47When I did meet him...
15:49That guy demanded respect, you know?
15:54He showed me off to everyone.
15:56Spore me as well, but me trainers, clothes, you know?
16:00Treat me like a king.
16:07He died when I was 14.
16:12The world on road is he got stabbed with his own knife in some petty scuffle.
16:17And after that, Mum just, erm...
16:19She just snapped.
16:29Got missing for days on end.
16:33Left me and my brother to take care of our little sister, the giant by ourselves.
16:37And no love.
16:43No help.
16:48I'm really sorry that happened to you.
16:51Sorry.
16:53Got out, though.
16:58Survived.
17:02The sun's blazing down on me now, though, right?
17:05Yep.
17:07Yeah, it is.
17:09Come on!
17:11Come on, please!
17:12Please!
17:39Hey.
17:41How's Vicky?
17:43You care about Vicky now, do you?
17:45Of course I do.
17:47I'll be like that.
17:48Oh, is that why you invite that man into our house?
17:50Look, I can care about Vicky and Ross at the same time, can't I?
17:53And did you really have to call him out like that in front of everyone?
17:57Do you know what? I think it's a good job I'm going away.
18:00Before me and you fall out.
18:02You're, er...
18:04You're staying in my house, aren't you?
18:05Don't forget that.
18:06I'll wind it in, will you?
18:07Ross ain't the one that's banged up, is he?
18:10Well, Joe ought to get it from somewhere.
18:12I mean, it's bad gene pool, if you ask me.
18:13I mean, Vicky is well shot.
18:14Didn't you protect Bobby?
18:16I mean, despite everything he'd done, you hid the truth from everyone.
18:20Right? Because deep down inside, you knew there was good in him.
18:22I've done the same with Aaron, but here we are and we get to argue about painting a window, so we get to have a pint with our community while Ross is in the gutter.
18:32Aren't we lucky?
18:34Yeah, I'm going to the Vic. You can do the last coat.
18:36I've got your text. You ready?
18:43Er, ready for what?
18:45We were going to...
18:47Oh, mate!
18:49You been turned over?
18:51No. I'm looking for something.
18:53Looking for what?
18:56Could it be the car keys? One last spin, remember?
18:59Car keys.
19:00Yeah.
19:02Oh, look at this mess.
19:04It's okay?
19:05No, it's not, oh, is it? What's Julie going to think?
19:09Okay, well, you, er...
19:14Er...
19:18Sit there.
19:20Julie always wanted to go to India.
19:23See the Taj Mahal.
19:25We've been saving for years, but then...
19:27Nigel, you told me this yesterday, remember?
19:31Right.
19:34I'm back!
19:36Oh, God. I'm exhausted.
19:39I got you those brandy...
19:42Oh, my...
19:46It's okay.
19:48Nigel was looking for something and got a bit carried away.
19:50Car keys.
19:51I was going to take the car for one last spin.
19:53No, no.
19:54He was just going to show me the engine.
19:57Nigel.
19:58Nigel.
19:59You can't drive.
20:00You know that.
20:05I keep hold of them.
20:07See?
20:08I've told you that.
20:09Yeah, I'm sorry.
20:13Right.
20:14Never mind.
20:17Let's get this place tidied up, then, shall we?
20:19No.
20:20We'll sort it.
20:21Right, Nigel?
20:22Yeah.
20:23Sit.
20:26Goodness.
20:29I'm supposed to be meeting Gene.
20:30So, go.
20:34Okay.
20:35Okay?
20:46What was I supposed to do?
20:49I've been raising him on my own.
20:52No, I know exactly what you meant.
20:53Yeah.
20:54Cheers for the support.
20:55Means a lot.
20:56Are you okay?
20:57Oh, well, you're concerned now, are you?
21:00Yeah, I saw you gawping earlier.
21:03Enjoy the shows, yeah?
21:04Of course not.
21:05I'm just concerned.
21:06Oh, just do one, mate.
21:08Sorry.
21:09Don't hurt your feelings.
21:13So...
21:15Right through now.
21:16Oh, do you know what?
21:17I'm actually up kind of beat.
21:18All right, well, like I said, Harry's a fool.
21:24If I had a girl like you, I'd never let her go.
21:33Johnny!
21:34You heard anything?
21:35Oh, he's heard all right.
21:36Yep, sacked.
21:37With immediate effect, gross misconduct, and zero chance of a reference.
21:42You're joking.
21:43I am so sorry.
21:44Yeah, all those years of graph down the drain.
21:46Don't worry, darling.
21:47Some people turn up.
21:48And in the meantime, you can help with the boutique hotel.
21:51Fantastic.
21:54Yeah, I mean, he's a nice guy.
21:57But...
21:59But he said Harry's a fool.
22:02I mean, I know he ain't.
22:03He chased me for months, and...
22:06In Brighton, like, we got really close.
22:08It wasn't just like a fling.
22:11Gina.
22:13I'm sorry, but this is textbook ghosting.
22:16No, no, it ain't.
22:17I know ghosting, and this isn't it.
22:21Something's off.
22:25Okay.
22:27Right.
22:29Ready?
22:32Push this.
22:34Julie?
22:36Um...
22:38My way of apology for earlier.
22:41Indian takeaway.
22:43Well, I'm...
22:45Just going back to the beginning.
22:47No, no.
22:48It's, um...
22:50It's a taster.
22:52For our trip to India.
22:56And what?
22:58You've had to put up with a lot from me.
23:01So, um...
23:03I wanted you to have something to look forward to.
23:08Um...
23:09Because I love you.
23:11And you deserve it.
23:13So I'm selling a car,
23:15and it's time to turn our dream into reality.
23:19Delhi, Jaipur, Agra.
23:22The Cordon Track.
23:25What, really?
23:27Really?
23:29And before our real trip to India,
23:31I thought I'd give you a taste of India.
23:34Oh, God.
23:36Oh, you big softy.
23:40So you're both going to India?
23:42Of course we're both going to India.
23:44Thank you, you're so thoughtful.
23:47It all gets cold.
23:48He can't only find his way to Stratford on the one I hate.
24:00How's he going to get to bleed in India?
24:05Watson, is that your side hustle, yeah?
24:07Reconnecting pensions.
24:08You don't fool me, Jasmine.
24:09I see you.
24:11I knew you were a sucker for romancery.
24:12I don't have to prove myself much more to get to you.
24:14Oh, is that right?
24:15Yeah.
24:16Maybe.
24:18Anyway, I guess asking you to see a film about a hooker...
24:22Sex worker.
24:23Sex worker wasn't a great move, but...
24:26How come?
24:28Really?
24:29Yeah, sure.
24:31Pretty women.
24:32But I'm paying.
24:33I'm a modern man.
24:34I've absolutely no issues.
24:35But I'm a pretty mute...
24:36I want to help.
24:37I want to help you.
24:38To help you.
24:39Oh no, no, no, I'm alright.
24:40Oh no, I'm alright.
24:41I'm alright.
24:42I'm alright.
24:43It's fine, it's fine.
24:44I'm alright.
24:45That cat looks nasty, I don't think.
24:46It's fine.
24:47Come on, Xavier.
24:48Come on.
24:49Come on, mate.
24:50Nice and easy.
24:51Come on, I'm alright.
24:52Hey!
24:52Come on, he's wasted.
24:54It's fine, it's fine.
24:56That cat looks nasty.
24:58Come on, let's have you up, come on, come on, mate.
24:59Nice to meet you, nice to meet you, nice to meet you.
25:01Come on, yeah, come on, come on.
25:03No, I'm up.
25:04Come on, come on.
25:20You never told me how funny Gina is.
25:23Oh, man.
25:25Got pretty wild.
25:26Yeah.
25:29She can handle abuse as well.
25:30Well, you know, my favorite bit of the date was,
25:35was tracing my finger along her tattoo.
25:39Oh, man, she was, uh, she was quivering.
25:43I think that's her sweet spot.
25:45I swear, I'm gonna kill you.
25:49I swear, I'm gonna kill you.
25:53I swear, I'm gonna kill you.
26:00I swear, I swear, I swear.
26:05Nah.
26:06Nah, I don't think you.
26:15Look at me.
26:21No one's coming for you.
26:23Hmm?
26:24Not your family.
26:25Not Gina.
26:26Not Gina.
26:30No one's gonna miss you when you're gone.
26:48Sharon's just dropping Albie at Zach's, aren't you not?
26:50Yeah, he likes looking after Albie.
26:52He's a good bloke.
26:55Listen, I'm sorry about earlier.
26:57All right?
26:58But you've got to stop feeling guilty about Ross.
27:00He can look after himself.
27:01Yeah, let's just get going, eh?
27:03Mm-hmm.
27:04In you go.
27:11Er, just give me a minute, all right?
27:13Er, no, you have got to be joking.
27:16I've done it post-hack.
27:17Look, he's covered in all sorts.
27:18Yeah, well, I can see that.
27:19He's taken care of, Kath.
27:20If anything happens to him, what's that gonna do it looking?
27:21Oh, nice try, Harvey.
27:22But he ain't staying here, him.
27:23Mum, he is.
27:24What?
27:25What after everything he's done?
27:26He's hit rock bottom, okay?
27:27Look, I know what that's like.
27:28I've been there with...
27:29Oh, nice try, Harvey.
27:30But he ain't staying here, him.
27:31Mum, he is.
27:32What?
27:33What after everything he's done?
27:34He's hit rock bottom, okay?
27:35Look, I know what that's like.
27:36I've been there with...
27:38I've been there with...
27:40You both have.
27:41Come on, Kath.
27:42We missed the train.
27:43You better pray that Sharon and Vicky don't find out.
28:10Bye.
28:11Bye.
28:12Bye.
28:13Bye.
28:14Bye.
