00:00Music
00:25Yes, Harry?
00:26All right. Listen, I know it's, um, I don't know quite about it now, but, um, just wondering if I could bring my car in later.
00:32Yeah. I just got to shift my dad's motor first, but you bring it around this afternoon if you want.
00:36Thank you. I appreciate that. Yeah. Are you applying?
00:39All right.
00:40Oi! Are you studying on a day off?
00:43No, just reading for pleasure.
00:45How are we related?
00:47You'd love this, Tempest.
00:49It's basically like a gangster movie.
00:51Italian geezer gets cast out of the mob, creates this whole revenge plot.
00:56No, no, no. Hear me out. Shakespeare, all right.
00:59It's the 16th century Martin Scorsese.
01:01It'll be five minutes of any longer, Mr. Sharp.
01:04It's not on board. It's all right.
01:11Are you sure?
01:12Yeah.
01:14Dad.
01:18Is it?
01:20You've got to see him, Barney.
01:22It's just tough.
01:24I know.
01:26But I still think...
01:27I know what you think.
01:28Mate, can you turn that down, please?
01:30Come on.
01:32You've just got to get something sorted first.
01:35What are you saying?
01:36To get some money behind us to support us until we get settled.
01:39Me, Whitney, Dolly...
01:41And Barney.
01:44Oh, come on, Zach.
01:46He is going to want to be with his mum and dad.
01:48He doesn't know his mum. He's a murderer.
01:51I'm going to take my car into Harry later.
01:53I knew he's had to get closer to him.
01:54Even if you became his best mate,
01:57it would all change when he found out the truth.
01:59You are about to rip her family apart.
02:02What about Nicola?
02:03What is she going to do to you?
02:04I can't make sure she can't find this.
02:07I just need some cash.
02:12Me?
02:15I'm already in debt to Sharon.
02:17She wouldn't want you doing this either.
02:18Fine.
02:19What are you doing?
02:20If you can't help me, I'll find someone who can.
02:23I've got to do something, haven't I?
02:25Right, just run it through one more time.
02:34Prospero is this all-powerful Duke of Milan.
02:36Yeah.
02:36Right, got it.
02:38So, then he has this magic fairy
02:40that gets to do all his dirty work.
02:41Wait, hang on.
02:42There was no magic fairy in The Godfather.
02:44Fairies aren't real.
02:45Yeah, exactly, coach.
02:46Yeah, all right.
02:47Let me explain to you one more time.
02:48Go on, then.
02:49Well, they live on this island...
02:50Let me guess.
02:52Shakespeare wrote the first gangster movie.
02:55What do you want?
02:57Look, I just came over to see if you fancied a drink later.
03:02Or a bit of food.
03:03You know?
03:04Don't have to get into anything heavy.
03:05No pressure or nothing.
03:07Just a beer.
03:08I think you should.
03:10Come on, his dad.
03:12Got to try and find a way through this.
03:21Sweet.
03:25You all right?
03:30You, uh...
03:31You think you're not doing some mega-magnet line?
03:34Birthday breakfast, is it?
03:37Well, your birthday was yesterday.
03:38I didn't get a cake.
03:40It's not really a birthday, is it, if you don't get a cake?
03:43Well, you didn't want a fuss.
03:44Who's making a fuss?
03:47You're making a fuss.
03:48You said you landed off to cook a meal, wasn't it?
03:51I didn't want a meal.
03:53What are you banging on about?
03:54Well, I don't know.
03:54You just, uh...
03:55You seem upset.
03:57It's not even my birthday, anyway.
03:59It's gone, then.
04:13Why do you need a loan?
04:17What sort of trouble are you in?
04:18It's messy.
04:22I just need to leave you on them for a bit.
04:24Maybe I can help.
04:26Talks me.
04:30I've just got a bit of a situation with, um...
04:34Nicola Mitchell.
04:36Pass me the sugar.
04:47I'll work for him.
04:50Don't take any chances.
04:52Not with her.
04:55What's for your dealer?
04:56And the rest.
04:57All right, we're done.
04:58Do you want her money?
04:59No, nothing like that.
05:01Okay.
05:03Have you had a thing with her?
05:06You are.
05:07All right.
05:09Come on, Zay.
05:10You can trust me.
05:10She wants me out of the picture.
05:15Because, um...
05:17Her boy, Barney, is mine.
05:24Yeah.
05:26And now I know he's my son.
05:27I don't want him to do with that family.
05:29Listen, mate, tell me I'm mad.
05:30I just...
05:31No, no, no, no.
05:32You're right to worry.
05:34She's wrapped up in all sorts of stuff.
05:36She came to me the other week needing her favour.
05:40Asked me to move her body.
05:43Would you go to the police?
05:44Are you mad?
05:45Mate, that's what I need.
05:46Get her out of the picture.
05:46I can talk to Barney, get him away from you.
05:48Well, that's what you want the money for,
05:49to get Barney away from you?
05:50She threatened, Whitney.
05:52I've had to send her into hiding.
05:53Please.
05:53No, mate.
05:54You need to drop it and keep your mouth shut.
05:56Trust me, she's that dangerous,
05:57and you will end up in a body bank.
05:59I'm sorry, I can't help you.
06:05Mate, come back.
06:08I'm sorry.
06:08I'm sorry.
06:08I'm sorry, I can't help you.
06:39What do you want, Barney?
06:40I don't know.
06:41I just feel bad.
06:42It's been kind of tense between us,
06:44and I'm sorry about that.
06:45I ain't really in the mood of this, you know.
06:47I just want you to say hi.
06:48Yeah, cool.
06:49Is this about you and Joel?
06:51Are you together now?
06:53Sorry, what have you heard?
06:54Just stuff.
06:55Yeah, well, mind your business, okay?
06:57Because you don't know nothing.
06:58Well, wait.
07:05That's a bit harsh, isn't it?
07:07I don't know.
07:08It's probably my fault.
07:09Don't be so tough on yourself.
07:10Come on.
07:11I just wanted to be happy.
07:14Okay, then take my advice.
07:16If you really care about someone,
07:17never give up on them.
07:20Thanks.
07:29You all right?
07:36Yeah, well, she's gone to Stade Linds.
07:38Oh, poor Stace.
07:39Yeah, I think she just wanted to get away to her head, you know.
07:42God bless her and those children.
07:44I just think we all need a little bit of good news, don't we?
07:47I mean, I was thinking about Lauren and what would you mean.
07:49Oh, yes.
07:50All on top of our brother, dear, Leon.
07:51Listen, I don't know about good news,
07:53but I do have some breaking news.
07:54Old Phil Mitchell fancies himself as a master baker.
07:58Alfie!
07:59Hey, Phil, make sure you give it a good stir,
08:00because you really don't want to end up with a soggy bottom.
08:05Okay, that was awkward.
08:07Phil, can I give you this birthday card for Nigel?
08:10It's a bit relieved today.
08:11It was Nigel's birthday.
08:12Oh, why didn't we celebrate?
08:15You said he didn't want the fuss.
08:16Well, he seems to have changed his tune to that some more than he.
08:19Have you got it up with me, because I didn't get him a cake?
08:21Oh.
08:23Oh, so you're going to make him one, then?
08:26What about it?
08:27Well, I didn't see you pop around to Billy's with a birthday cake.
08:30Just saying.
08:32Third of May.
08:34You've had a difficult morning, then.
08:36Yeah, he was shouting at me, I don't know.
08:38It was about a birthday or what it was about.
08:40Well, he was a little shot with me, as well.
08:43I think he was upset above clear.
08:45It was her 40th a few days ago.
08:49I just talked with him.
08:51A few choice words is a lot easier than baking a cake.
08:59Barney.
09:01Wow.
09:01Yeah, please, don't tell anyone.
09:04No, of course not.
09:05Okay.
09:06Just a bit lost with it all.
09:11And if Martin was still here.
09:13I know.
09:14I know.
09:17We talk about her big stuff, then he'd just make a joke.
09:20He couldn't be serious for too long.
09:22Missing, Linda.
09:28Have you called Sharon?
09:30Well, she knows.
09:32Just don't want to worry her while she's away.
09:35Well, look.
09:37Yeah, she's my best mate.
09:39Why don't you try talking to me like you talk to her?
09:42I just feel like I could give Barney a better chance in life.
09:52Teenagers, though.
09:53It's harder than you think.
09:55Did all right with Tommy, didn't I?
09:57Yeah, I suppose.
09:59Not just the fun stuff.
10:00I'm a foster parent.
10:01I've got what it takes.
10:02Do you know what?
10:02I'm ready.
10:03I'm ready to step up and be a proper dad.
10:07Up?
10:08I don't really think Nicola could kill me.
10:15She's that dangerous?
10:16Yes.
10:17Harry was in love with Shireen.
10:20Her own son.
10:21The love of his life.
10:23Nicola killed her.
10:24What?
10:25Yeah.
10:27She admitted it.
10:28She told me.
10:29Okay.
10:30I mean, maybe she did, but it was probably an accident.
10:34Not an accident.
10:34She meant it.
10:35She says she'd do it again.
10:38Well, then, then why would you risk all this?
10:41You know, you've got Dolly as well.
10:43You can't be anything to anyone if you're dead.
10:46I can't sit back and do nothing.
10:49Then, think like a parent.
10:53You know, if you say you're ready to step up,
10:57what's the most responsible, grown-up thing to do
11:00if you think your son is living with a killer?
11:05Go to bleed.
11:08What's that?
11:08Yeah, mate.
11:13I'm sorry, mate, for shutting you down like that.
11:16Yeah.
11:18Now, look, I've made a few phone calls
11:20and I can get you that money.
11:22Oh, it's all right.
11:23He doesn't need it.
11:23He's going to do the right thing.
11:26Women, they blow hot and cold all the time, mate.
11:36So, you don't think I should try and talk to her?
11:40Look, I know you like her,
11:42but if she keeps treating you like this,
11:44there comes a time when you just have to walk away.
11:46You're a good kid, right?
11:50She's the problem.
11:52Not you.
11:53Right.
11:54I'm making bacon sarnie for lunch.
11:57Who wants in?
11:58No, I'm eating Harry.
11:59What?
12:00Oh, I'll come with you.
12:01No.
12:02Well, Chelsea can manage at the bar.
12:03This is huge, Ted.
12:04I know it is,
12:05and that's why you ain't coming.
12:06What's that supposed to mean?
12:07If you're going to argue,
12:08I'm just going to go.
12:09Mate, you don't have to go.
12:10See ya.
12:14What are you kicking off for?
12:15Upsetting him?
12:16Why are you planning to meet up with our son without me?
12:18If you show up, he'll freak out.
12:20You want to mend things?
12:21You go up my pace.
12:23Understood?
12:31I'm telling you,
12:32Nicola Mitchell keeps your room for sure.
12:33And how'd you know this?
12:35She told me,
12:36and then she threatened to do the same to me.
12:39And were there any witnesses in the room
12:40when she said this?
12:42Oh, no.
12:43So it's your word against hers.
12:44She asked someone I know
12:46to move the body for her.
12:48And who was that?
12:50I can't say.
12:52Are they prepared to make a statement about it?
12:53No, but I swear to you,
12:55it happened, all right?
12:56What is your relationship
12:58with this Nicola Mitchell?
13:01I was her personal trainer,
13:03and we had a thing.
13:04An ex-girlfriend, then?
13:05Sort of.
13:06I don't know.
13:06But she didn't want no fella finding out
13:08for all sorts of reasons.
13:08He attacked me and all.
13:09They're dangerous.
13:11And did you report this attack?
13:12I was scared, all right?
13:13She's killed someone.
13:14He's coming up to protect her.
13:15Please, you don't muck about with these people.
13:17You don't believe me, do you?
13:22I can see she's already been brought in
13:25for questioning about this murder.
13:27No charges were brought against her.
13:29There's no new evidence here.
13:31This is all hearsay.
13:34Anything else?
13:37Yeah.
13:38Yeah, she told me how she killed her.
13:44Pushed her.
13:46She hit her skull on a rock,
13:47and she watched her die.
13:48None of that has been released to the public,
13:50but she told me,
13:51there is your proof.
13:52It's, uh...
14:16From your land, eh?
14:17Birthday card.
14:20Did you ask her to write it?
14:22No, of course I didn't.
14:23Were you all right, Nick?
14:25No.
14:28I know that I...
14:30I didn't get you a cake yesterday,
14:33and I'm sorry,
14:33is that what's upsetting you?
14:37Do you wish we'd have done something
14:39to celebrate her?
14:42Was this about Claire?
14:47Felt wrong to celebrate just me.
14:50Because I wasn't there for her,
14:53but then I thought,
14:55I'm missing out.
14:58I don't know how many more birthdays I've got left.
15:02How many where I actually know what's going on.
15:07Let's do something, yeah?
15:11You know,
15:12it's not too late.
15:12Let's...
15:13Whatever you want, yeah?
15:16I'm going to go to the cinema.
15:19All right.
15:20All right, let's do it.
15:23All right.
15:23Oh, every single shift,
15:31I see you charging that thing behind the bar.
15:34Who do you think pays for that electricity, eh?
15:36Sorry.
15:36I should start docking your wages.
15:38Claire.
15:39Don't you start defending her.
15:40You are just as bad.
15:42What?
15:42How'd it go?
16:01Yeah.
16:02I did what I could.
16:03Yeah, well, I'm proud of you.
16:05This is not just about Barney, is it?
16:07A young girl was murdered.
16:09I wouldn't have gone to the police.
16:11I think it's a risk.
16:12Yeah, but you've got to do what you've got to do, I know.
16:14You know, Barney,
16:15she's not been in my life for years.
16:17I won't lose her now.
16:20I'm glad you came.
16:21Look, I ain't talking nothing ever, yeah?
16:23Well, we stick to football and cars, then, eh?
16:25Get your hands off me!
16:27What have you done now?
16:29I ain't done nothing.
16:30This is a witch hunt.
16:36Is this...
16:37Is this still about Benji?
16:39I don't know.
16:40I guess.
16:42Mate, don't...
16:43No, I'm done!
16:47I'm going to talk to him.
16:48No!
16:49I let the police deal with it.
16:50They won't keep her long.
16:51When she gets out, she will come for me,
16:53so I'm going to do this now.
16:55No, no, no, no, no, no.
16:56I can't let him go on his own, can I?
16:58Sharon will never forgive me.
17:03And we should totally start licking her flats, hmm?
17:06Already?
17:07Yeah, I mean, Dad's on board now.
17:09I could...
17:10I could help you fill out applications.
17:12Oh, hello.
17:13Are you excited about Koja getting his own place?
17:16Yeah, that's great.
17:18You all right?
17:19I'm fine.
17:20He's not fine.
17:21No.
17:22Hey, come on, talk to us.
17:24My mum just got arrested.
17:26What?
17:27For what?
17:28I don't know.
17:29Look, can you just go?
17:31I'm going to close up, all right?
17:32No, I really want to be on my own right now.
17:34So if you just go, sorry.
17:35All right.
17:36Cheers.
17:36Call me if you need me, yeah?
17:37Yeah.
17:37Come on, go.
17:38Look, mate, now's not a good time, yeah?
17:59Oh, I'll do your car another time.
18:00I ain't in here about the car, Harry.
18:03Listen.
18:04I know why your mum got arrested.
18:10Shireen.
18:10Your mum killed her.
18:16Wait, what do you know about that?
18:17She told me, mate.
18:19What did you just say?
18:20Just, just listen to him for a second.
18:22She threatened me, warned me to keep my mouth shut,
18:26said that she'd kill me like she killed Shireen.
18:29Mouth shut about what?
18:33Listen, me and her, we had this thing.
18:3816 years ago.
18:4016 years.
18:47Barney's mind.
18:53I wouldn't know how to tell a lie.
18:55I am an open book, mate.
18:57Hmm.
18:58Well, the guys from Dartford Police Station
19:00weren't exactly singing your praises.
19:03Oh, them, yeah.
19:04They've been gunning for me for years.
19:06Hmm.
19:07I think they've got issues with strong women.
19:10You must get a lot of that in this job.
19:12See, you've been in prison as well.
19:14Doesn't exactly scream honesty, does it?
19:17Well, what can I say?
19:19Prison changed me.
19:20And this is the second time your name's come up
19:22in relation to Shireen Bashar's murder.
19:24What can you tell me about the night she disappeared?
19:29You've got my alibi on record.
19:32Do we need to go over it again?
19:33What about the way she was killed?
19:35Have you ever talked to anyone about that?
19:37Yeah, I heard a bloke called Benji
19:41mouthing off about it.
19:43You know Benji.
19:44He's obsessed with me.
19:45And in prison for her murder.
19:48He told me
19:50that he pushed her,
19:53heard her skull crack,
19:55and then watched her bleed out.
19:59You know, he's another one
20:00who struggles with strong women.
20:02And you didn't think to report it?
20:06What, and have him do the same to me?
20:08No chance.
20:10Did you know where Shireen Bashar was buried?
20:13Course not.
20:15Did you ask anyone to help you move her body?
20:18Is this a joke?
20:21No.
20:22I didn't.
20:23Can you think of any reason
20:25why someone would be giving us
20:26all this information about you?
20:29Well,
20:31like I said,
20:32us strong women
20:34just rub people up the wrong way,
20:37don't we?
20:40Your mum's dangerous.
20:42She's been lying to everyone.
20:44If you heard what she said about Shireen,
20:46she weren't sorry for killing her.
20:49Not one bit.
20:51I mean, she was proud of it.
20:52No, no.
20:53It was just to scare you off.
20:55That's all that would have been.
20:56I saw it in her eyes.
20:57She's been threatening the mother of Zach's little girl.
20:59Yeah.
21:00Found out where she lived.
21:01I've had to send them into hiding.
21:05Did you call the police today?
21:08That was you, wasn't it?
21:09Yeah, what if I did?
21:11Do you not want justice for Shireen?
21:13Do you not want the truth, mate?
21:15I'm sorry, but your mum is a killer.
21:17Your dad is lying to protect her,
21:19which is just as bad,
21:20which is just as bad,
21:21just as dangerous.
21:23I think you know deep down, didn't you?
21:25Yeah.
21:25Yeah.
21:29You know.
21:30You know what they're capable of.
21:35Barney,
21:36he ain't safe with them,
21:38and he deserves a better life.
21:42What are you saying?
21:42I want to take him away from here,
21:45all right?
21:45I want to take him away from her,
21:46and I want you to convince him he trusts you.
21:49He will listen to you, mate.
21:51You're going to take him away?
21:52Look, Zach.
21:53Yes, take him away to protect him.
21:54Please, you're his brother.
21:56Do the right thing, Harry.
21:57I need to leave tonight.
22:03And we both know your mum will talk about that police station.
22:06She will come for me.
22:10Talk to Barney.
22:15Please.
22:22I need to think this through.
22:25Tonight, Harry.
22:27I need to think.
22:44You all right?
22:45Yeah.
22:47Yeah, they've still got nothing on me.
22:49How are we going to explain this to Harry?
22:51I could send him off the rails.
22:53Just tell him the truth.
22:55Someone's been stirring things up.
22:57Oh.
22:59Benji again?
23:01Benji?
23:02Someone he's been blabbing to?
23:04I don't know.
23:06I'll tell you one thing.
23:07Whoever it is,
23:09they are going to pay for messing with me.
23:12Come on.
23:16Like, is it funny?
23:17No.
23:18She's honestly so trash.
23:19You would not let her anywhere near your boyfriend.
23:22She's a proper, little tramp.
23:24So embarrassing.
23:26I wouldn't show my face again if I was her.
23:29Waste my girl off the streets.
23:31My girl off the streets.
23:32Are people trolling you about the Joel thing?
23:35You said you knew all about it.
23:43That Sharon had asked you to look up.
23:45Yeah.
23:46I just can't believe he stole Harry.
23:48I did try and stop him.
23:50They tried to warn him.
23:51How dangerous she was.
23:52Grossing on someone like Nicola.
23:55What does he think is going to happen?
23:56What choice did he have?
23:58She confessed to him.
23:59But...
23:59Anything?
24:05No.
24:07Don't hear from Harry tonight.
24:09I'm going to have to go on my own.
24:12Oh, Zach.
24:13The money's on the table.
24:15Yeah.
24:17It's never going to be easy trying to divide a family.
24:20My blood's thicker than water.
24:21That's why it hurts.
24:22Barney is my blood.
24:33Barney?
24:36Barney, are you in, mate?
24:40How are we going to explain this to him?
24:42People would have seen you getting arrested.
24:44No gets about.
24:45And he ain't stupid.
24:47Leave it with me.
24:48Yeah.
24:50Leave it with her.
24:52Because you're a master when it comes to lying, isn't you?
24:54Oh, don't you start.
24:55I've had enough of all that from the old bill.
24:58Who wants a cuppa or a glass or something?
25:01I spoke to Zach.
25:04What do you think he told me?
25:05Mate, come on.
25:06Ask her.
25:07Zach's a troublemaker with a grudge against me.
25:14Hmm.
25:15Is that why you're threatening to kill him?
25:18As if I'd waste my breath on Zach.
25:21I'm going to ask you one more time.
25:24And do not lie to me.
25:28Did you kill Shireen?
25:29No.
25:32Sam, whatever you've heard...
25:33Stop defending her.
25:34No, look, listen to...
25:35She slept with Zach.
25:37What?
25:41Sixteen years ago.
25:45She's playing you for a right mug and has been for years.
25:49Because you ain't Barney's dad.
25:55Zach is.
25:56See you next time.
