00:49No! No!
00:54No! No go away!
00:57No, no.
00:59You can't make me. You're just my sister.
01:01But you have to do what I said to the mother.
01:03You're not mine.
01:05I don't care. Go away.
01:06Can you please just brush your teeth? Please.
01:08No. No.
01:10Come on, come on.
01:11Kids, mummy's upset, all right? We've got to be quiet for her.
01:14I don't want to!
01:17That's mine.
01:18No, it isn't.
01:19Leave your brother alone.
01:20Leave your brother alone.
01:21Leave your brother alone.
01:22Leave your brother alone.
01:23Leave your brother alone.
01:24Yes!
01:25No!
01:26No, no, no!
01:28No!

01:37bert, lady, babe!
01:39No!
01:45Get up!
01:50No!
01:51We want his dear brother!
01:52We can get a guru-bowl
01:54Yeah.
01:55I don't know.
02:25Yeah, it is.
02:39Are you okay?
02:44Let me help you out.
02:46No, it's all right, honestly.
02:48No, no, I'm all right, thanks.
02:49Oh, you've got a baby.
02:50You've got a newborn baby.
02:52I'll help you.
02:52Yeah.
02:55You're going to be all right?
03:14Yeah.
03:16Put the light on.
03:17Oh, no, I don't want to wake him up.
03:21Oh, he's gorgeous.
03:26It's hard, though, isn't it?
03:28Having a newborn.
03:29I mean, it's great.
03:30It is great.
03:32I hardly remember.
03:34How do you go?
03:36With your kids?
03:40How do you deal with the pressure and the worry?
03:42How do you do it?
03:43Well, the truth is, I don't.
03:48I mean, right now, I'm not at all.
03:53Sorry.
03:53I should be.
03:55I want to be.
03:57I do, too.
03:59More than anything.
04:01Do you ever think about Abby?
04:04What?
04:06What happened to her out there?
04:07Yeah, of course I do.
04:11I've got to walk past it every day.
04:14Me, too.
04:15What happened to Bradley, I think about him more and more since Martin died.
04:21That's understandable.
04:24You think you can forget the past, the things that have happened, the guilt?
04:32Guilt?
04:33Well, don't you feel guilty?
04:37Are you having a dick?
04:39No.
04:40Because I know I had a drug problem last year, and I wouldn't deny that.
04:47It's just...
04:48If I'd have known what was going to happen, I'd never...
04:52Why?
04:53What's happened?
04:54Nothing.
04:57Nothing.
04:58It's Jimmy.
04:59He, uh...
05:01He's blind.
05:07Oh, my God.
05:10Lauren, I'm...
05:11I'm so sorry.
05:15I just found out about it as well.
05:19But, uh...
05:22Well, we're gonna be all right.
05:24And this is me and Peter, we're gonna be okay.
05:27Yeah, of course you will.
05:29Of course.
05:30Of course you will.
05:33I mean, I'm so selfish.
05:35My problems, what are they?
05:37I just...
05:37I find it hard to be there for the kids.
05:40And to let go of...
05:41Of...
05:42Of...
05:43The grief, and...
05:45I'm gonna be a good mum.
05:49Just like you.
05:50Gonna be a good mum.
05:52I have to be.
05:53Right, let me...
05:58I'm gonna go see to Jimmy, because if he starts crying now, then, he'll be crying all night.
06:04Well, you could try walking him round, in the buggy.
06:07I used to do that with Lil.
06:08She was all right, misery guts and all.
06:12Thank you, Sticks.
06:16Ah!
06:19Ah!
06:19Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!
06:22Ah!
06:22Ah!
06:34Ah!
06:35Yeah, all right, darling. It'll be ten minutes. Cheers, love.
07:00No worries for the wicked.
07:08You all right?
07:09Uh, yeah. Yeah, I'm fine. I, uh, I just wanted to say thanks for earlier, you know, Charlie and that.
07:19And, you know, you were right, I need to step up, so that's what I'm going to do.
07:24I'm going to sort myself out for me kids.
07:26That's good. That's great.
07:27Are you sure you're okay?
07:30Yes, I'm fine. You don't need to keep asking, all right? I'm not sick. I'm just some tired cat.
07:36But anyway, it doesn't matter. I'm back, all right? I'm putting my kids first, I'm putting my family first, and I just...
07:42Well, I just wanted you to know.
07:43All right. But I'm here, yeah, if you need anything.
07:46Well, I don't. I don't need nothing.
07:47In fact, I'm going to look after you for once. So come round two hours for dinner tonight.
07:55Tonight?
07:55Yeah, tonight. Come round, then we can just all sit together and eat and talk, and it'll just be like old times, like normal.
08:02Oh, yeah. It's a bit late, though, isn't it?
08:03Kat, I'm making an effort. All right, I'm just going to... I'm popped to the minute, Mark.
08:06I'm going to slap something in a pan, and if you ain't hungry, you can just have pudding or something, like ice cream.
08:11Please.
08:12Right, yeah, I'll just finish up here first, yeah?
08:14No, you're finished. All right, look, done. Finished for the day.
08:16Go and get Alfie, and I'll see you in 20 minutes. Bring the kids, yeah?
08:20Yeah, all right.
08:24Hello, this is Peter's phone. Leave a message.
08:27Hey, I'm just wondering where you are.
08:32I hope you're all right.
08:34I just wanted to let you know that we're home now, so just call me, yeah?
08:44Hey, this looks delicious.
08:50Stacey's going to have to tell me what the recipe is, darling, because I'm going to assist on this every night.
08:53Well, fish fingers, stick them under the grill, burn them, and then frozen peas.
08:57Yeah, yeah, yeah.
08:58Well, let's go.
09:00It's crunchy.
09:01Oh, I've got ice cream.
09:02Oh!
09:03Chocolate fudge.
09:04I've got caramel swirl, strawberry, mint, coconut, chocolate sprinkles, and then eat as much as you like.
09:11No, don't listen to her. It's my house, my rules, all right?
09:17If your nan was here, she'd go nuts.
09:20She, uh, she loves nothing more than a bowl of ice cream.
09:24Talking of which, I've given her half with a boot.
09:27It's sat on the tongue.
09:30Hey, Stacey, you all right, darling?
09:31Has anyone seen my jacket? I hung it on the banister.
09:33I'm always losing some. It'll turn up.
09:35No, I need it. I need it now.
09:37Stacey, I might have took it to the lingerie.
09:39What?
09:39It's in the bag.
09:40No.
09:42No, I hung it on the banister.
09:44He finds it in the pocket.
09:45I'm going to check it.
09:46What?
09:46Are you stupid, Freddie?
09:47What is wrong with you?
09:48Don't blame him.
09:49It's not his fault.
09:50I won't even know.
09:52Mum?
10:00All right.
10:01I'm using the technique.
10:02No luck, yeah?
10:03Which machine did Freddie use?
10:11Pardon?
10:11Freddie just bought a load of washing over.
10:13Well, where is it?
10:14In there.
10:15What do you think?
10:16You can't stop it, make sense.
10:18Stacey?
10:18Well, I have to.
10:19My phone's in there.
10:20I need my phone.
10:20No, no, no, no, no, no.
10:21You can't.
10:21No, no, no, no.
10:22You can't.
10:22No, no, no, no.
10:23No, no, no.
10:24Stacey, stacey, stacey.
10:24No.
10:25Oh, shh.
10:28Try this to sleep.
10:29Thanks, Lillard.
10:30Keep an eye on the kids, yeah?
10:31Yeah, good luck.
10:31Where's Mum going?
10:37Mate, she's just nipped over to the lingerie because this donut here has put her phone in the wash.
10:41Can you believe it?
10:43Won't it work anymore, but...
10:44Yeah, it's going to be fine.
10:45It's going to be all right.
10:45Listen, how do you fancy some ice cream, yeah?
10:48She won't be able to call you?
10:49Mate, of course she will.
10:50It's going to be all right.
10:53Okay, I'll tell you what.
10:53Come and sit down here.
10:54Park your backside down here, buddy.
10:57Come in.
10:58You can talk to your Uncle Alfie, yeah?
11:00What's the matter?
11:00I've done a bad thing.
11:03Bad thing, eh?
11:05What have you done?
11:07I know a secret.
11:09Okay, right.
11:11What kind of secret?
11:13Daddy.
11:14He's coming home.
11:19Stacey, there is nothing I can do.
11:21You're just going to have to be patient.
11:22What are you doing?
11:23I need that phone.
11:25I need it.
11:26It's got my photos and everything on it.
11:27It's going to be ruined.
11:28You don't know that?
11:29Yes, I do, Kat, I do.
11:30That is all I've got left of him, Martin.
11:32That's all I've got left is voicemails.
11:34That's it.
11:34I need it, Kat.
11:35I need it.
11:36Calm down, yeah?
11:37Come home with me and we'll talk.
11:38No, I'm not coming home.
11:39I'm sitting here until that is done.
11:48Come on, buddy.
11:49You tell me anything, all right?
11:50I promise you I'm getting into trouble.
11:52Okay?
11:52All right, what's this, then?
12:02Daddy's phone.
12:03The police came around and gave it to Nan.
12:06She hid it in the cupboard under the stairs.
12:08I took it.
12:11All right, what, does anyone know you've got this?
12:15All right.
12:16Hey, what's on it?
12:18Do we know?
12:28Which needs to be sectioned?
12:29What do we do, then?
12:29What do we do?
12:32That's not going to happen, all right?
12:33Stacey, would you like a cup of tea or a glass of water while you're waiting?
12:42Hi.
12:43You all right, Stacey?
12:44Okay, tomorrow.
12:45Yeah, they're good, they're good.
12:46Yeah, where's Kat?
12:48Oh, okay.
12:50Lily was a little bit upset.
12:53I'm going to go now and give you all some privacy.
12:56Okay, yeah, thanks.
13:02All right, Lils.
13:03I think I've got to show you something.
13:08Well, show me this.
13:09Okay, it's, uh, it's Martin's phone.
13:13Arthur had it.
13:15You've got to hear this.
13:17I can't wait to see you.
13:19The kids are excited, too, and we won't make any mistakes this time.
13:23No messing around.
13:25All I want is to be with you.
13:26Be together.
13:27Be your wife.
13:31When did she leave it?
13:32About three hours ago.
13:35I don't understand.
13:36I don't get it.
13:38What does it mean?
13:39Mom, we know what you've been doing.
13:54Where'd you get back?
13:55You've been talking to Dad.
13:57Sending him messages like he's still alive.
13:59I just want to lie in bed with you.
14:03Sunday morning, cuddle, talk.
14:07Maybe I'll go down, get us a cup of tea, a slice of toast.
14:10That's enough.
14:12But that's it.
14:12You give me that phone, Lily.
14:13Give it to me.
14:13Why are you doing this?
14:14No one's bothering us.
14:16Have you gone completely mad?
14:17Please, Lily.
14:18Why are you torturing yourself like this?
14:21Can't you see what this is doing to me?
14:23To us, to the kids.
14:24Do you even care?
14:25It's got nothing to do with you.
14:26It's got nothing to do with the kids.
14:27It's got nothing to do with me and Martin.
14:29Lacey, Arthur's had the phone.
14:30He's been listening to the messages, every one of them.
14:33Let's just get rid then.
14:35What?
14:36Let's finally just get rid of it.
14:38Dad's dead.
14:39He's gone.
14:40The phone might as well go too.
14:42Stop.
14:43What are you doing, Karen?
14:47Stacey, leave it.
14:49Stacey, what have you done?
14:51Just go home.
14:53Go after her.
14:54Okay, okay.
14:55What have you done?
14:58Bills, hold up, darling.
14:59It's okay.
15:00It's just that your mum's really upset at the moment.
15:02Oh, who ain't?
15:03I've lost my dad and I've been looking after these kids all on my own.
15:06Yeah, I know.
15:06Listen, I get it, all right?
15:07No, you don't.
15:09I'm the kid.
15:09She should be looking after me, not the other way around.
15:12Bills.
15:13Are you having an episode?
15:21Maybe you need professional help.
15:22I'm not having an episode, Kat.
15:23All right, I know the signs.
15:25Yeah, but all this...
15:26I'm not crazy.
15:28I know mine's dead.
15:38You do?
15:39Yes.
15:39So why?
15:42Why all this?
15:46Well...
15:47Aren't you a bit old for that?
15:52You all right?
15:55What's happened?
15:57Nothing.
15:59Just my mum.
16:00Mum.
16:02Mum.
16:03What's she done?
16:04She messed up.
16:06Big time.
16:08Yeah, well...
16:08You know what it's like.
16:10You've got a kid.
16:11I've got a kid.
16:13It's not easy being a mum.
16:15Sometimes you do mess up.
16:16Yeah, sometimes.
16:17Not all the time.
16:18Is she really that bad?
16:24I wouldn't write a lot.
16:26We all make mistakes.
16:29I know I have.
16:29Yeah.
16:31Yeah, of course.
16:31I'm not stupid.
16:34I know she's not the worst in the world, but...
16:37Being around her...
16:42It's making me a worse mum to Charlie.
16:45It's the truth, Lauren.
16:47It's not fair.
16:48It's not right.
16:50I have to put my daughter first.
16:53Isn't that what a good mum would do?
16:55The first time I left a message, I was screaming down the phone.
17:03I was so angry that he'd left me on my own.
17:06And I know it's crazy, but it just...
17:08It felt so good to let it out.
17:11So I left another one, and then I realised...
17:15It had been listened to.
17:17And I knew it couldn't be him, but I couldn't work it out.
17:20I left another one.
17:26And it just...
17:28It just felt good to not be alone.
17:34And the more and more I did,
17:37the more it felt like we still had a chance.
17:41That he was still alive.
17:45But you know he ain't.
17:47I know.
17:48And I know it ain't real.
17:53I just really wanted it to be.
17:57You can't carry on like this.
17:59You know that.
18:01It's really affecting the kids.
18:05Arthur thinks his dad's coming back
18:07and that you and Martin are going to get married.
18:09You can't have this.
18:12You've got to put a stop to it, Stace.
18:15Before it's too late.
18:18It's broke.
18:40It's broke, Kat.
18:41All my photos, all the voicemails, they've gone.
18:49They've just gone.
18:52No.
18:52The most amazing thing happened at the hospital earlier.
19:07I managed to feed Jimmy, like properly, he, he latched on properly, like it was the easiest, most simplest thing in the whole wide world.
19:23It was, it was so cute.
19:24We're going to be okay.
19:25We're going to be okay.
19:26He's got me.
19:27He's got you.
19:28We're in this together.
19:30Don't we?
19:31Yeah, of course.
19:32Of course.
19:33Of course.
19:34Of course.
19:35So.
19:36We're gonna be okay.
19:39He's got me.
19:41He's got you.
19:43We're in this together.
19:48Aren't we?
19:49Yeah, of course.
19:51Of course.
20:06What are you doing?
20:09Leaving.
20:10What?
20:11Where are you going?
20:13Lily!
20:16I'm not angry.
20:18You're having a bad time, I get it.
20:20So why are you going, then?
20:23Charlie.
20:24You dropped the ball, Mum.
20:26And I can't keep looking after this house
20:29and these kids and Charlie.
20:31I can't do it all anymore.
20:32You don't have to do it anymore. I'm here.
20:34No, Mum, it's too late.
20:37I love you, but I've got to put my daughter first.
20:40Where are you gonna go?
20:42I'm staying at Ryan's.
20:46She's sending a cab to pick me up.
20:48What, now?
20:49I'm sorry, Mum.
20:51I called him.
20:52I was upset. He insisted.
20:54It's...
20:55It's gonna be your end, innit?
20:57This is crazy.
20:59Lily, you don't have to go. This is your home.
21:01I'm feeling better now.
21:03I'm gonna...
21:04I'm gonna do better, alright?
21:06I'm gonna go back to work.
21:07I'm gonna do everything.
21:08I'm gonna put tea on the table.
21:09All the things that a normal, boring old Mum like me does.
21:13Mum, nothing's going back to normal.
21:16Not until you let go.
21:19Not until you let go of Dad.
21:21You need to move on.
21:24I need to move on.
21:25I'm sorry.
21:26I don't wanna hurt you.
21:27I don't.
21:28I just...
21:29I don't wanna let go of him either.
21:32But I have to.
21:34We both have to.
21:37Can't we do that together?
21:38No, you have to do it for yourself.
21:40I'm trying.
21:41Try harder.
21:42Try harder.
21:43I'm doing my best.
21:45It's not just the grief, Lily.
21:46It's...
21:47It's the what?
21:48It's...
21:49It's the guilt.
21:50It is the guilt.
21:51Guilt for what?
21:52Everything.
21:54Your Dad died trying to save me.
21:57Just like Bradley did.
21:59I tear families apart.
22:01I am poison.
22:03I'm toxic.
22:04You always hurt people.
22:06Oh, Mum.
22:07That's not true.
22:10It's not true.
22:12Bad things happen.
22:15That doesn't make them your fault.
22:18You have to see that.
22:20You have nothing to be guilty for.
22:22Do anything.
22:23Yes.
22:28You just have to let it go.
22:31You just have to let all of it go.
22:34And you'll be okay.
22:35I know you will.
22:37Can't you stay?
22:38No.
22:41Not until you sort this out.
22:44You can't be a mum to me.
22:46And I can't be a mum to Charlie.
22:52I have to go on.
22:57It's okay, I'm not.
22:58No.
23:03Can you help me?
23:16No.
23:17No.
23:27Thanks.
23:36You will come back.
23:38Won't you?
23:41Please.
23:43I hope so.
23:47You need to sort yourself out first, then.
23:50If not for me and Charlie.
23:52For you.
23:54We're gonna lose everyone.
23:56For good.
24:00I love you.
24:01I love you too.
24:31I love you too.
24:33So I will.
24:34I know you two.
24:35I love you too.
24:57I love you too.
25:58She's gone to stay with Ryan for a bit.
26:01She'll be back soon?
26:02Yeah, she's, uh...
26:05She just needs a little break.
26:08So do we.
26:11Come here.
26:16Don't be scared.
26:17Everything's gonna be all right.
26:23It's just taking mommy a long time to say goodbye to your dad.
26:30You're right, but I'm here.
26:32And I love you.
26:35And I'm your mom.
26:36That's all that matters.
26:46Well, I tell you when we pick these photos up, eh?
26:49Clear up this messy room.
26:50And then tomorrow we're going to stay with Auntie Lynn and have a little break.
26:57Get some peace and quiet.
27:01Tell you what, let's put them in this box.
27:04We can put them in this box and then every now and again we can take them out and...
27:09Can have a little look at them.
27:10Remember what a lovely dad he was.
27:17How lucky we were to have him.
27:23Can be our special thing.
27:27Just me, you and Lil.
27:30Yeah.
27:30All we've got to do is say goodbye.
27:37Goodbye, Dad.
27:39Goodbye, Dad.
27:42Bye, babe.
27:45I miss you.
27:46Bye, babe.
