00:00Oh, come on, come on.
00:27Listen, can I have a quick word or are you rushing off?
00:29Oh, this wouldn't be to do with Mr Oppodopolis and your tummy bag, would it?
00:32Yeah, I'm sorry. Look, I don't like to keep on asking her, but I don't know what else to do.
00:35Yeah, but it's me that has to keep lying to the man.
00:38I think you really ought to send one of your lot in with a sick note.
00:41Otherwise, they're going to think we're in this together.
00:43Yeah, yeah, you're right. I'll send Bianca in with one.
00:45OK.
00:46So, I'm sick of all this.
00:48Richard's behind it. I know he is.
00:53What was all that about?
00:55Carol, she's still off sick.
00:57She's got to go back soon, aren't they?
00:59And how long is she going to keep this up for?
01:01I don't know. In the meantime, Miss Muggins here has to keep lying for her.
01:05I do feel sorry for her, but I really don't like it.
01:08Oh, and he wasn't born yesterday, was he?
01:10Who wasn't born yesterday? My boss.
01:13What's it like, then, this Mr Papadopoulos?
01:15Papadopoulos.
01:16Italian chap, did you say?
01:17Greek.
01:18I nearly married an Italian once.
01:21Lovely teeth.
01:23No sense of humour.
01:25Then I found out.
01:27What?
01:28Well, he was already married, of course, and I would never have an affair with a married man.
01:32I think I'll get going now.
01:36Yeah, I'd better get the children off to school.
01:39Oh, Pauline, while you're on your feet, is there another cup of tea in that pot?
01:42Cass.
01:43Go there.
01:44Oh, thanks, chap.
01:45Look, tell me to mind my own business.
01:46I'm sorry, I can't talk about it.
01:47It might help.
01:48I don't think so, somehow.
01:49What about the calf?
01:50Oh, but I can face it.
01:51As far as I'll have to, though.
01:52Do you want me to cover for you?
01:53Oh, sure, would you?
01:54Yeah, come on.
01:55Yeah, come on.
01:56I'll get it.
01:57I'll get it.
01:58I'll get it.
01:59I'll get it.
02:00I'll get it.
02:01I'll get it.
02:02I'll get it.
02:03I'll get it.
02:04I'll get it.
02:05I'll get it.
02:06I'll get it.
02:07I'll get it.
02:08I'll get it.
02:09I'll get it.
02:10I'll get it for you.
02:11Oh, sure, would you?
02:12Yeah, of course.
02:13Well, I mean, I could do with the money.
02:14I'll go now.
02:15Mum's doing the school run today.
02:17That's if you don't mind being here when she comes to pick Vicky up.
02:20No, it's fine.
02:21All right.
02:22Well, I'll go and get her ready, then.
02:23Would you mind if I stayed here today?
02:24No, not at all.
02:25The place is all yours till Vicky gets home.
02:26Oh, thanks, Char.
02:27I do appreciate it.
02:28And if you see Phil...
02:29I haven't seen you.
02:31Thanks.
02:32You can be all right?
02:36Yeah, fine.
02:37Is it serious?
02:39Well, you know where I am if you want me.
02:46You were late again this morning, Arthur.
02:48I'm sorry.
02:49Yeah, well, sorries don't make up for lost time, do they?
02:52The problem is we want another bathroom.
02:53See, I can never get in there, it's nearly.
02:55Your domestic arrangements are no concern of mine.
02:57There are blokes queuing up for a job like yours, and you'd do well to remember that.
03:02Good morning, Ricky.
03:03Oh, it's like that, is it?
03:04Oh, sorry, Arthur.
03:05I've got things on my mind.
03:06You look all spruced out, eh?
03:07Well, is it a job interview?
03:08I wish it was.
03:09Yeah.
03:10All right, Ricky?
03:11Yeah.
03:12I haven't forgotten, darling.
03:13What time are you doing court?
03:14Ten.
03:15Can I still get the morning off or go and ask Grant?
03:16No, look, I'd rather go on the home.
03:17It'll be all right, love.
03:18You'll see.
03:19Will it?
03:20Yeah.
03:21Well, you took that motor to find Frank.
03:22Yeah, but it don't look good on paper, does it?
03:23Nicking a car, riding it off like that.
03:24You know, throwing the key away.
03:25No.
03:26Not with any other reason.
03:27No.
03:28Hey, Phil, where's your missus this morning, then?
03:29She's not my missus, are they?
03:30I don't want to be like that, then.
03:31Sure you don't want me to come with you?
03:32No, I'm all right, honest, Pat.
03:33What time will I be back?
03:34Well, what, with time off for good behaviour?
03:35About ten years.
03:36Pack it in, Ricky.
03:37No, I shouldn't be back by lunchtime.
03:38Sorry.
03:39Sorry, sir.
03:40I'd better be off, love.
03:41I'll be thinking of you.
03:42Cheers, Pat.
03:43Good luck.
03:44Bye.
03:45Bye.
03:46Bye.
03:47Bye.
03:48Bye.
03:49Bye.
03:50Bye.
03:51Bye.
03:52Bye.
03:53Bye.
03:54Cheers, Pat.
03:55Good luck.
03:56See you later.
03:57So, if you could cover me for another hour, then a couple at lunchtime, that'd be great,
04:01Al.
04:02Sweet.
04:03Any chance of anything up front?
04:04All right.
04:05Why not?
04:06See ya.
04:07I'm feeling generous.
04:08Cheers.
04:09Catch you later.
04:10Yeah.
04:11But, don't worry now.
04:12I've got the workers sorted out.
04:13And like they said before, it's none of your own business, is it?
04:15Is that right?
04:16Come on, go and get Vicky, and then we'll be off to school.
04:23Oh.
04:24Look, before you say anything, I crashed out here last night, all right?
04:28I've had a bit of a bust up with Phil.
04:30Oh, right.
04:31Where's Cheryl?
04:32She's covering for Mick the Kath.
04:34I didn't feel too good this morning.
04:35Okay.
04:36Upstairs and get Vicky done.
04:38You look awful.
04:39I didn't get much sleep last night, did I?
04:42Is there anything I can do?
04:43Look, Paul, I don't want to seem rude.
04:45All right, all right, then.
04:46It's up to you.
04:47Um, look, I'm going to take Vicky off to school now, but I'll be popping back later on with
04:51her.
04:52Will you still be here?
04:53Yeah.
04:54Might be going in a minute.
04:55Okay.
04:56Right, come on, you two.
04:57Thanks, Paul.
04:58Oh, there is one thing.
04:59I haven't seen you.
05:00Right.
05:01All right.
05:02Where's Cathy?
05:03Er, so that's egg, baked, no sausage.
05:04You sure?
05:05Where's Cathy?
05:06I'll bring it over to you.
05:08Well, just tell me where she is, will you?
05:09I don't know.
05:10She only asked me to cover for it.
05:11All right, well, where's she gone, then?
05:12Why am I getting the third degree?
05:13Sorry.
05:14If you see her, tell her a minute to speak to her, yeah?
05:15It's important.
05:16Yeah, sure.
05:17Thanks.
05:18Good morning.
05:19Morning.
05:20Oh, hello there.
05:22And how is Mrs. Jackson?
05:24Er, I'm sorry.
05:25I don't know.
05:26You haven't seen her then?
05:27No, I'm afraid not.
05:28Ah.
05:29Are you Mr. Apocalypse?
05:30I knew my mum said she'd go, but she'd close up.
05:31She's gone.
05:32She's gone.
05:33She's gone.
05:34She's gone.
05:35She's gone.
05:36No, it's gone.
05:37I'm sorry.
05:38I've been a man now.
05:39I don't know.
05:40She's gone.
05:41I don't know.
05:42I don't know.
05:43She's gone.
05:44I don't know.
05:45Oh.
05:46Ok.
05:47I don't know.
05:48enough she'd be able to make it in again today. She's feeling a bit rough. Rough? Yeah, some
05:53tummy bug or something. She's been frying up like no one's business. Yeah, it's all in
05:57the night. Would you kindly tell your mother that if she's not in here to see me at five
06:05o'clock sharp, she won't have a job to come back to? Understood? Is that clear? Yeah,
06:12but she's still in bed, isn't she? No buts. I'll make it simple. If she's not in here
06:17at five o'clock, she needn't bother showing up at all. And that applies to you as well,
06:22Mrs Fowler. Me? What have I done? Just be here at five and you'll find out, won't you? And
06:28just one more thing. I can well do without my staff playing cat and mouse with me. I've
06:33no time for games. Where's Carol? Right in the cafe. Yeah, well, tell her I'll be over
06:40as soon as the post is clear. Do you think he's going to give her the push? Oh, goodness
06:43knows. Because obviously he thinks something's up. He's not a happy man. Yeah, well, no am
06:47I. I'm the one who's got to tell her, isn't I?
06:54I can't hang her back. I've got to get back to the store.
06:58So, what's he say? Well, he said if you're not back in to see him by five o'clock, I'm
07:01coming back. What? And Pauline. Pauline? But she's got nothing to do with this.
07:06Are you sure? Of course I'm sure. She's coming in to see you about it.
07:09Oh, God. Perhaps the DSS have been in already. That dress is still there, you know. What
07:15dress? The one I spotted yesterday. Sanjay said he'll save it for me. For me birthday.
07:21How much? 25. 25?
07:25But, Mum, you said... Yeah, I know. But this was before all this. Look, I don't even know
07:29if I've got a job to go back to, do I? I am sorry, love, but I just can't, you know,
07:33not till I know what's happening. Bianca. Look, it is her birthday. Don't you think
07:43I know that? Where the hell am I going to get 25 quid from? Oh, Helen, if I lose this
07:48job. No, no, I do not even want to think about it. So what are you going to do? What
07:54else can I do? Go and see what he's got to say, I suppose. Oh, goodness knows why he wants
07:58to see Paul in as well. Oh, I don't know. What a mess, eh? Do you think it is Richard
08:04behind all this? Because I'm telling you something, I'm certain of it. Look, we've
08:07been all through this before. Yeah, and you've still never given me a straight answer, neither.
08:11Are you sure you haven't crossed him? Look, Carol, he doesn't like me, and I don't like
08:16him. And yeah, there were a few snide comments, but it goes with the territory. With absolutely
08:21no proof whatsoever that he's behind it or not, I'm asking you not to stir up any trouble.
08:26I don't need him on my back any more than he already is, all right? Yeah, but listen,
08:30if you as I see... Look, Carol, he can make life very difficult for us if we start pointing
08:34the finger at him. Leave it. Please. Yeah, all right. Before you start sounding off again,
08:40I know how bad you feel about Bianca's birthday. I ain't having the same fiasco we had with
08:45Sonia's. No arguments. I am a stepfather, aren't I? It's not enough for that dress, but
08:52they'll get us something. You know what? You're all right, Alan Dexon.
08:57Yeah, well, I'm not having my kids go without. Job or no job.
09:04So then, Jake, how's business?
09:06Uh, well, it could be better. Yeah? Yeah.
09:08I might be in a position to put some of you away.
09:10Oh, yeah? Yeah, I've got a mate of mine. He's got a load of dresses he wants to shift.
09:13Very quickly, at a reasonable rate. Thought he might be interested.
09:16What's in it for you? Well, I'll get a nice drink out of it. He sells his dresses,
09:19and we'll go away happy. Yeah, what's the catch?
09:22There ain't no catch. What, good stuff, you say?
09:25Oh, yeah. Yeah, quality good.
09:26Well, look, all above all, is it?
09:29Well, I wouldn't ask too many questions. Look, are you interested? Because if you are,
09:32I'm meeting him in the Vic at lunchtime. Come over, have a chat with him,
09:34see what you think. I'm strings. Yeah, all right.
09:36All right, that one, then. Yeah.
09:39I said all right.
09:40You look rough. You, uh, you look at St. Cath on your travels, have you?
09:49No, why, what's up?
09:50She's, uh, she's left me. Look, I don't want to talk about it, not her.
09:56Was it bad?
09:58Must be. Looks like you've been up half the night trying to sort it out.
10:02Yeah, I ain't had much cap as it happens.
10:04I'm sure you'll be back.
10:06Morning.
10:07I'll be out of the early bird.
10:08Oh, I'll catch you later, yeah.
10:10Yeah.
10:10Tell me, is it?
10:12No, no, I just, uh, just got to get on, that's all.
10:15Grant, if you do anything...
10:16Yeah, yeah, I'll give you a bell.
10:17Cheers.
10:19What's all that about?
10:20I don't know, but I'm going to go around and find out.
10:22Well, you haven't even set up.
10:24There's something you ain't telling me.
10:25Leave it, eh?
10:26We don't have secrets from each other, never have.
10:28No?
10:29No.
10:29I suppose you've heard me.
10:39Yeah, I can't understand why you're going to see both of us.
10:41Well, that's what you said.
10:42Well, look, I mean, I told him you had nothing to do with it.
10:45Oh, I'm really sorry, Pauline.
10:46Yeah, but it's me that's been having to do the lying.
10:48You should have seen the way he looked at me, like I was something crawled out of the woodwork.
10:51But you've done nothing wrong.
10:52Well, you try telling him that.
10:54I've got to get back.
10:55Listen, listen, we're going at five and get it sorted, all right?
10:57Just let me do all the talking.
10:59I promise you, he'll be fine.
11:01Yeah?
11:06David!
11:08Hello, Mum.
11:09Yeah, it's going really nicely over there now.
11:11We'll have my new office arrive in a couple of weeks.
11:13Oh, by the way, did you see what happened to Ricky this morning?
11:15I wanted to take him out and look at a few motors.
11:17He's got his core earring, hasn't he?
11:18Oh, I forgot about that.
11:20He seemed really shaken about it.
11:22I offered to go with him, but he didn't want me to.
11:23Nah, he'll be all right, don't worry.
11:25Distraught son snatch his car in search of missing father.
11:28He'll be laughing.
11:29I hope you're right for his sake.
11:31So, come on, what's up?
11:33Look, nothing's that bad.
11:35No.
11:36That's what Kev said.
11:38And I told her.
11:40So, who have you gone and topped?
11:47It was me that fired the car lot.
11:50Frank asked me to, so I did it.
11:51Well, that's rich.
11:57What are you, mad?
11:59I mean, you do that after all the stick you gave me for firing the Vic.
12:01Oh, look, this was business, all right?
12:04At least I didn't torture me own gaff when me wife upstairs asleep, did I?
12:06No.
12:07And I didn't barbecue a dosser, did I?
12:08It was an accident, all right?
12:10I told Frank to empty the petrol tank.
12:11If he had her done, then what a kid would have got out in time.
12:13End of story.
12:14Why the hell did you do it?
12:17I mean, after all the grief you gave me.
12:21Do you know how long you could go away for if this ever got out?
12:23It won't.
12:25Arson, manslaughter.
12:27You're looking at a 10, 15-year stretch.
12:29It won't get out, right?
12:29No, and how can you be so sure?
12:32I mean, you risk everything, and for what?
12:34You're stupid!
12:34It's just when everything's going right in your life.
12:39Well, you're mental!
12:40Talk to me!
12:40Hey, Ian, you're a chat and I'll turn up, then.
12:48Don't worry, I'll be here.
12:49Well, it can't be too long, because I've got a romp covering the soil.
12:52I've got to get back.
12:52It's saying, Jay, get that down in your head.
12:53I'll tell you what, I'm feeling very generous, though.
12:55Sharon, free scotches, please.
12:57Um, go and sit yourself down and go, please.
13:00Someone doesn't intend to get much work done this afternoon.
13:02You complaining?
13:04Drink yourself under the table for all I care, as long as you leave quietly.
13:07I'll bring these over.
13:08Keep a change.
13:10So why the hell did you do it?
13:15I heard Frank the night.
13:17I got his flat and his share of the catheter.
13:21I heard him a favour and he called it in.
13:23It's as simple as that.
13:24And you went along with it?
13:25It was part of the deal.
13:27If he'd have done what I told him then, we'd never have been this mess.
13:30I mean, in the square.
13:31I mean, anyone could have seen you.
13:32I checked.
13:34But not the cars?
13:34If Frank had done what I told him then, no-one would have got hurt, but he didn't.
13:38And he couldn't handle it.
13:39So he goes and does a runner?
13:42Yeah.
13:44He's well out of it, isn't he?
13:46He makes me feel sick.
13:48Seeing Pat and the mess he's left her in.
13:53Does she know that you set it up?
13:55No, of course she didn't.
13:56But, well, she does now.
13:59That's what Diane was doing here.
14:01Frank turned up in Paris and told her everything.
14:04So Diane told Pat?
14:06And what about Ricky?
14:07And David, does he know?
14:09I've had them all on to me.
14:11I put that geezer in hospital and he knows this?
14:13It's not your problem, is it?
14:17So what did Pat say?
14:19Well, she blames me for everything.
14:22Frank's disappearing at the mess she's left in.
14:24I can't say I blame her, really.
14:26I mean, Frank's not around to scream at, but I am.
14:29But I'll tell you something.
14:31If I hadn't had done it, then Frank would have got someone else in.
14:35Yeah?
14:36Yeah.
14:39So where's your mate?
14:40Oh, he's probably stuck in traffic or something,
14:42but I'll tell you what, it's going to be well worth the wait.
14:44We're talking real quality gear, isn't it?
14:45Yeah, all right, another few minutes won't hurt, I suppose.
14:47No.
14:48Anyway, you were saying?
14:50About what?
14:50Richard.
14:52Look, um, I've got this in for Eddie,
14:53but it's only going to go flat sitting there.
14:55You might as well have it.
14:55All right.
14:56Well, he can be a good mate, you know, Richard.
14:58What, if you don't cross him?
14:59Yeah, something like that.
15:00It's like a well and truly cook me goose here, isn't it?
15:02You just got on the wrong side of him from the word go.
15:04That is not a good idea with Richard.
15:06You're telling me?
15:08So, um, where was it he was at Mall for Bradford or somewhere?
15:11Oh, no, no, it was Doncaster.
15:13Oh, right.
15:14What happened?
15:15No, that's another story.
15:17Oh, come on, Sange.
15:18Look, I'm not likely to go running up to Doncaster, am I?
15:20Well, you hate him enough.
15:21Look, you've got me wrong, man.
15:22I've got a lovely wife, I've got three beautiful kids.
15:24I just wish he'd get off my back.
15:26I've had enough trouble.
15:27That's all.
15:27Honest.
15:29So humble.
15:30What happened, having Doncaster?
15:32Well, uh, he had a lot of trouble.
15:35I mean, that's all I know.
15:36Oh, to do with the council?
15:38Well, it was a planning committee or something.
15:40Eh?
15:40Look, I don't have any details, right?
15:42He never talks about it.
15:44But it was, uh, some scandal.
15:46Got a bit too messy.
15:47Bad enough for him to make a quick exit down south.
15:50Look, where's this mate of yours, then?
15:52I've got to get a move on.
15:53Oh, yeah, I'll tell you what.
15:54I'll give him a quick call on his mobile,
15:55so he ruins his, right?
15:56Yeah.
15:59Seems there's a lot about you I don't know about.
16:02You've got to have a little secret.
16:03Do you want to tell me why we're at it?
16:06My second thought's saved.
16:07I'm still trying to digest this one.
16:10I mean, why tell Caff?
16:11What was the point?
16:13I don't know.
16:16I need to talk about it, I suppose.
16:18Then you should have come to me.
16:19At least I kicked some sense
16:20since you made you feel a bit better.
16:24She looked sick when I told her.
16:27She couldn't even look at me.
16:29I'll tell you something.
16:31I hope I never have to see Frank Butcher again
16:33because he's left everyone in it, including me.
16:36And whatever else I deserve, I don't deserve this.
16:38I'm seeing Pat and the mess he's left over in.
16:42I'm seeing the kids.
16:44No, it can't be easy.
16:48But it's like you said.
16:50He's gone and left you in it,
16:51but you mustn't let that get to you.
16:52You've got to try and put it behind you.
16:53Forget it.
16:56You've got to stop drinking.
16:57You can't get going in the bender every night.
16:59Because I can't just stand by
17:02and watch you do that to yourself.
17:04And I ain't going to.
17:07You're all right.
17:09Glad to hear it.
17:12Look, careful, come round.
17:15She just needs a bit of time, that's all.
17:18I think this is the first, isn't it, me telling you?
17:20You're the one who gets me out of messes, remember?
17:22Let's try and keep it that way, shall we?
17:24So what's happened to this anything?
17:31You ain't going to believe this, Sanjay.
17:32He's only gone and sold it all, hasn't he?
17:34Are you joking?
17:35Well, I thought you said...
17:35Yeah, I know, I know.
17:37He said he had an offer he couldn't refuse.
17:39I'll tell you, you just wait till I catch up with him.
17:41So, that's it, is it?
17:43Yeah, I'm sorry, Sanjay.
17:44Yeah, so am I.
17:45You can't trust anyone these days, can you?
17:47Nah, you're telling me.
17:49Is this what you dragged me in here for?
17:50Oh, go on.
17:51Go on, okay.
17:52What is it?
17:54It's a peace offering, right?
17:55I know you wanted that dress, but it's good to be your birthday, isn't it?
18:00Well, do you like it?
18:02Yeah, it's really nice.
18:04It feels a bit big, though.
18:05Oh, it fit me all right.
18:07Yeah, well, we all know the size of your head, don't we?
18:09Do you really like it?
18:11Yeah, it's really nice.
18:12And I'm sorry, I mean, I know you wanted that dress.
18:14No, look, I'm not bothered, really.
18:15The dress was a bit common anyway.
18:17Just all this business with the laundrette.
18:18I don't know if I've got a job to go back to.
18:20Yeah, I know.
18:20Look, I shouldn't have made such a fuss in the first place.
18:22This is much better anyway.
18:24Yeah?
18:25Yeah.
18:27I'm not disturbing you, Emma.
18:29No, I mean, well, unless you're in a rush.
18:32Well, at least you look as though you're back in the land of the living.
18:35Yeah, well, I had a good kip, didn't I?
18:37Do you know, it's been a luxury of an old day to myself.
18:39I can't remember the last time.
18:40Tell me about it.
18:42So you're feeling better?
18:44No, not really.
18:47Me and Phil, look, it's not an affair if that's what you think.
18:50If it was, I'd know what to do.
18:53I'd never expected anything like this.
18:55Never.
18:56Well, I suppose you have to ask yourself if you can live with it or not.
19:02Whatever it is.
19:04I don't know if I can, Paul.
19:08This is something Phil's done.
19:10For someone.
19:12Am I right?
19:13And now that someone's disappeared,
19:17shall I go on?
19:21Pat told me.
19:23Phil fired the car lot for Frank.
19:26How did she know?
19:28She didn't.
19:29Well, not from Frank, anyway.
19:30Diane told her.
19:33After Frank disappeared,
19:34he turned up at Diane's in Paris
19:36in a terrible state,
19:37and he told her everything.
19:40So that's why Diane was over here?
19:41Oh, poor Pat,
19:44what she must have gone through.
19:46Who else knows?
19:47Just the butchers, I think.
19:51That poor lad died because of Phil,
19:53and I've been living with him,
19:54not knowing.
19:56I just can't take it in.
19:58Yeah.
19:58What could he do?
20:00I always thought that Phil
20:02was the one with his head screwed on.
20:04When he told me,
20:05I thought I never wanted to see him again.
20:08And now?
20:09I just don't know anymore.
20:11Well, if you want some advice,
20:14I'd get out while you still can.
20:17I don't think I can, though, Paul.
20:19That's just it.
20:21Phil's the first person
20:22I've been able to love in a long time.
20:24How can I give that up?
20:27It's up to you.
20:28I know what I'd do.
20:29So, did you find out what's up?
20:35Oh, it's just something I've had with Kath.
20:37Serious?
20:38Not really.
20:39You've been gone long enough.
20:41I see.
20:41Boys own stuff, is it?
20:43Ask no questions,
20:44and I will tell you no lies.
20:45It's the story of my life.
20:47You trying to tell me
20:47you've never told a lie?
20:48Not even a little one.
20:50Sharon, I'll put another double in there, will you, please?
20:52You've been knocking them back a bit, haven't you?
20:53Yeah, why not?
20:54Sorry I spoke.
20:56Ricky!
20:57I've been looking everywhere, darling.
21:00How'd it go?
21:00Great.
21:01I've got a criminal record
21:02and I'm on probation for 12 months.
21:04Oh, I'm sorry.
21:05Well, they couldn't give a damn.
21:06It was me dad I went looking for.
21:07All they cared about
21:08was the state the car was in.
21:12Here you are, the pair of you.
21:13You never got banged up, then?
21:14Yeah, I told you it'd be all right, Mum.
21:15No, 12 months probation.
21:17Well, there you go, then.
21:18Oh, come on, it could have been worse.
21:20Anyway, things will be looking up soon.
21:21I've got great plans, you and me.
21:22I know this business is really going to take off.
21:24With your mechanical expertise,
21:26my selling power,
21:27we get Mum doing the books,
21:28that'll keep her out mischief.
21:29I'm going to bike, you.
21:30No, it's going to be great, I know it is.
21:31But we've got to pull together on this one, right?
21:33And look, first thing in the morning,
21:34you and me go out and check a few cars, yeah?
21:35What do you say?
21:37All right.
21:37That's what I like it.
21:38Now, what you having?
21:40What about Mr and Mrs?
21:41Hey!
21:43All right, hello.
21:44All right, all right.
21:45Well, that was quick.
21:48You tied up each other already.
21:50Did you have a nice tie?
21:51Oh, yeah, it was wonderful.
21:52Yeah, thanks for the champagne, mate.
21:53Oh, you got it, then?
21:54Yeah, Deb's carried me over the threshold,
21:55and there it was,
21:56waiting for us in our honeymoon suite.
21:58I always said she was a woman.
21:59More champagne, I think, Sharon?
22:00Definitely.
22:01Oh, I wouldn't say no.
22:02Oh, and thank you both for all you've done.
22:04You've been wonderful.
22:05Nice hotel?
22:06Oh, yeah, lovely.
22:07Breakfast in bed on a silver tray,
22:08red roses.
22:09It's such a lovely service, if I may say.
22:11Oh, I do like a nice wedding.
22:13Mind you, I didn't think they allowed.
22:14Divorcees to be married in church.
22:17Oh, don't get me wrong.
22:18I'm all for it.
22:20Oh, thank you.
22:21I won't say no.
22:23Here's to you both, then.
22:25Cheers.
22:25Cheers.
22:26Go down.
22:26Your daughter said you had an upset stomach.
22:29Yeah, well, it hits the stomach as well.
22:31Oh, sounds bad.
22:32In bed, were you?
22:33I've got four kids, Mr. Appadopolis.
22:35Being laid up's no luxury.
22:36Are you sure it wasn't more of a hangover?
22:39Sorry?
22:40Well, after I saw you two knocking it back yesterday in the square,
22:43I'd say you'd made a pretty remarkable recovery, wouldn't you?
22:47I think I'm due an explanation.
22:49Look, someone has split on my husband.
22:53What's this got to do with me?
22:54Well, there's someone who's reporting to the DSS,
22:56and I think they're on to me.
22:57I've just been keeping my head down a bit while things cool off.
22:59Now, look here.
23:00I've no intention of lying to the DSS for you or anyone.
23:04If they start coming round here asking questions...
23:06Whoa, no, that's why I phoned in sick.
23:08You see, I didn't want to get you involved.
23:09Well, look, give it a couple of days.
23:11They'll clear off.
23:11You'll see.
23:12Oh, no, no, no, Mrs. Jackson.
23:13I'm sorry.
23:14I don't see.
23:16You leave me no alternative but to lay you off without pay until further notice.
23:20No, no, Mr. Appadopolis, you can't do this.
23:22And that applies to you as well, Mrs. Fowler.
23:23You lied to me.
23:25You knew all along that Mrs. Jackson was perfectly fit and well for work,
23:28and yet you continued to cover up for her.
23:30I call that aiding and abetting in my book.
23:33And if there's one thing I will not stand for,
23:35it's dishonesty amongst my employees.
23:39And just one more thing.
23:40Stop it, Douglas.
23:41Please, listen.
23:42Appadopoulos.
23:43The name is Appadopoulos, Mrs. Jackson.
23:47And no, I won't listen.
23:52Which kids?
23:53Oh, the baby's asleep.
23:55Stephen's been playing up, so I put him to bed.
23:57Again?
23:58What do you mean, again?
23:59Look, Ian, I'm sick of this.
24:00You're going to have to talk to him.
24:01Yeah, well, I will.
24:03Well, when?
24:03Today?
24:04Tomorrow?
24:05Yeah, um, about tomorrow.
24:07What?
24:10I've got to go to Doncaster.
24:11It's important for all of us.
24:13Oh, great one, Ian.
24:14My one morning's break, I've got the family planning clean and the week shop,
24:17and I can't even do that.
24:19What the hell do you want to go to Doncaster for?
24:22Oh, I get it.
24:23It's Richard, isn't it?
24:24I can't believe it.
24:25You want to go all the way to Doncaster for what?
24:27Are you mad?
24:28Why can't you just leave it?
24:29No, not this time.
24:30Look, I've got something on him, some scandal.
24:33I mean, it made him leave Doncaster real sharpish, right?
24:36I just want to find out what it is.
24:37I want to get to the bottom of this once and for all.
24:39You're obsessed, you know that?
24:40Obsessed.
24:41Oh, Cindy.
24:43Cindy!
24:45I just can't believe it.
24:47Oh, Pauline, I'm so sorry.
24:49What are you going to do?
24:51I've got husband out of work, four kids and no money.
24:54Yeah.
24:55Look, Lear's the reason for the mess we're in.
24:58Pauline, we can't be definite.
24:59Oh, no?
25:00A leopard doesn't change its spots overnight, does it?
25:03Come on, we'll get this sorted for once and for all.
25:06Here, I want a word with you.
25:08Do you hear me?
25:09And I'm talking to this young lady, so if you don't mind...
25:12It was you grassed on Alan, wasn't it, you toe rag?
25:14It was you put the DSS on to him, wasn't it?
25:17What's that?
25:17The cat got your tongue?
25:19You ought to be careful about making false accusations, Pauline.
25:21I don't know what you're talking about.
25:24Mind you, if he was moonlighting, well, he got all he deserved, didn't he?
25:27You just couldn't help yourself, could you?
25:29And you'd done the same to Carol and all, wouldn't you?
25:31But I tell you what, this will make your day.
25:32We've both been laid off.
25:35Well, look at me when I'm talking to you!
25:37Pauline, don't waste your breath on him.
25:38It's sad, isn't it, when people lose their self-respect.
25:41What did you say?
25:42Mind you, if you can't hold down a job in a third-rate laundry.
25:45You're pathetic.
25:46Do you know that?
25:47What sick satisfaction do you get out of making other people's lives hell?
25:50Because that's what it is, sick!
25:51Listen, sweetheart, I don't give a monkey's ear about your domestic arrangements.
25:55Then why don't you just calm down and go home quietly?
25:58Have a chat with that so-called husband of yours.
25:59Mind you, he's probably in the pub knocking down last week's child benefit.
26:02Maybe it's him you should be mouthing off to love, not me!
26:05What if your mother don't deserve a thing like you?
26:07So with the Lady of Leisure, then, now, are you?
26:11Still, it'd be an ideal opportunity to keep an eye on things at home, won't it?
26:15What do you mean?
26:16While the cat's away, the mouse will play.
26:19Well, that's what people are saying, anyway.
26:21What?
26:22Do you want me to spell it out to you?
26:24I thought you'd be glad to keep an eye on that errant husband of yours.
26:27Everybody knows what he's been up to while you've had your fingers in other people's dirty laundry.
26:30Hey, Mum!
26:32Hey, what's going on here?
26:34And why were you late again this morning?
26:35I?
26:36You heard.
26:37Well, five minutes.
26:37Yeah, well, it's five minutes once too often in my book.
26:39You're sacked.
26:40Oh, I say!
26:41But look here!
26:41You heard.
26:42Sacked.
26:44But listen, we...
27:00You heard.
27:24I?
