00:00Hey you.
00:21Brought you a spare phone charger.
00:27And some of those rip-off smoothies you like.
00:32How are you feeling?
00:36If you're in any pain they can top up your medication.
00:40You'll feel better once the anaesthetic's out your system.
00:44It's two steps forward now, Sarah.
00:47Your operation's out of the way.
00:49And my donation.
00:52I even managed to avoid eye contact with the receptionist as I left.
00:57Has nobody told you?
01:03Told me what?
01:07There isn't gonna be a baby, Jacob.
01:18Is Cian picking you up?
01:21I'm meeting him at the hospital.
01:23That's if I go.
01:24I think I'm probably the last person Sarah wants to see this morning.
01:28Well she probably has a different perspective on it by now.
01:31Is that honestly what you think or are you just saying that?
01:34Because either way it's pretty stupid.
01:36Charity, I'm not fighting you.
01:39I'm sorry.
01:40I'm really sorry.
01:41I'm just so annoyed with myself.
01:43Because if I had just left things and not opened my big mouth.
01:46You know, just pretended until after the op then...
01:49None of this would have been necessary, would it?
01:52But then you wouldn't be you, would you?
01:54Look, Sarah worships you.
01:57And she knows that all you've ever wanted is the best for her.
02:00She needs you.
02:03Especially right now.
02:05Okay?
02:10See you in a minute.
02:11Well, how many questions are there?
02:15Well...
02:16Give me the...
02:17Hey!
02:18Flipping it, pal.
02:19There's loads.
02:21Clock drawing test.
02:23Yeah, we can skip that.
02:24What?
02:25Three word recall test?
02:27Yeah, so you say three random words
02:30and then you see if the person can repeat them again after five minutes.
02:34Don't do this.
02:36Are you actually saying that or are you doing the test?
02:41No, what I'm saying is maybe you were right the first time.
02:44Maybe it's just a little bit of depression.
02:48I'm still going to get in to see a doctor.
02:50So what's the point in doing this then?
02:51Alright.
02:52What's the mysterious thing can be said on the phone?
03:03Well, I wouldn't panic.
03:04You're probably just tired.
03:06Not me.
03:07Me dad.
03:08Alright.
03:09Yeah.
03:10Forgetfulness.
03:11Mood swings.
03:12Gabby thought this might give us a clue.
03:14Now if he won't see a doctor.
03:16Of course, Ashley.
03:17Yes.
03:18Calm, reasonable Ashley.
03:19The vicar.
03:20Your dad is bare.
03:21The wrestler.
03:22He's not going to like being tricked.
03:24Who's tricking him?
03:25No one.
03:26Well, get someone to do a dementia test without telling them it's a dementia test.
03:28He's tricking them.
03:29That's the plan.
03:34Mandy don't want to help me.
03:35I don't want to do it on my own.
03:37Please.
03:42Hey.
03:44You alright?
03:47Hey Harry.
03:48How's the tummy?
03:49You lads having fun?
03:50Vic's not here.
03:51Yeah I know.
03:52I said I'd drop in.
03:53Not to.
03:54Check on you.
03:55Or the merrier.
03:56Well.
03:57You've obviously got it all under control.
03:59Hmm.
04:00I reckon he was well enough to go to school.
04:02I was just telling him about chess.
04:04And how it's a better game than.
04:06Superhero.
04:07Whatever it is.
04:08I love chess.
04:09You play?
04:10A bit.
04:11You any good?
04:12Bit.
04:13Hmm.
04:14Well we could teach him.
04:16You'd have to pry that thing out of his hands first.
04:19And find a chess set of course.
04:20Well there's a set in my van.
04:22You know what I'm saying?
04:24Wait right there.
04:29Well is that it?
04:30Is that all you've got?
04:32Yeah well pull your big boy pants up and do your job.
04:35Or I'll start taking overdue rent out of your pay packet.
04:38And we'll see how incentivised you feel then.
04:43Employee recognition day.
04:47What am I paying a management company for when a quarter of my tenants are behind on their rent?
04:54Apparently you can't break the legs anymore.
04:57I'll look into it.
04:58And what are you going to do?
05:00Overpower them with your aftershave?
05:04Kim, did you have anyone over the house yesterday?
05:08With a trades person?
05:09Or a visitor?
05:10Why?
05:11I just feel like someone's been in my room.
05:14Not as far as I know.
05:16Maybe Dawn?
05:17Yeah.
05:18Yeah probably.
05:27Queen to E6.
05:29What does that mean?
05:30It means be quiet.
05:34That was a bit rude wasn't it?
05:37It means I've just forced Uncle Robert's King into a corner.
05:43I thought this was meant to be a bit of fun.
05:44No you're not enjoying it.
05:45Didn't say that.
05:49Can you turn that down a bit?
05:50It's getting annoying.
05:52Are you going to make your move or what?
05:59Well I didn't think we were playing timed.
06:01No I didn't think we were so desperate to win.
06:03Well why else should we play chess?
06:06Alright.
06:07Alright here you go.
06:09Check.
06:10I'm bored.
06:11Are you?
06:12Hmm.
06:13Well.
06:14Sometimes you have to make sacrifices for the bigger picture.
06:29Checkmate.
06:30Okay.
06:32Okay.
06:34Well done.
06:36I'm sorry.
06:37Don't be.
06:40Looks like I just got beaten by your uncle Harry.
06:42It's just a game.
06:44Course it is.
06:45Anyway.
06:46It's Harry's turn now.
06:47I should be getting off.
06:50That was fun.
06:51All played.
06:52I reckon I just got hustled by your uncle Harry.
07:02Who's he actually paying for?
07:03For me dad.
07:06You both look very shifty.
07:10I've got to tell you.
07:11Don't look shifty.
07:16He's outside.
07:17That were quick.
07:18I said I was paying.
07:19You'll definitely know something's up.
07:21Just remember.
07:22Don't jump in straight away with the questions.
07:24Just leave it to me.
07:26I'm not daft.
07:27If this idea is daft.
07:34It's not my birthday and I forgot.
07:39Is it?
07:40Stop it.
07:46Engine oil.
07:47You get to love the smell of it.
07:49And how are you getting on?
07:50Well luckily I've been taking pictures.
07:53Getting to the engine case and there's that many nuts and bolts.
07:56You've a job remembering where they all go.
07:58And do you find that you do that quite a lot?
08:00What?
08:01Dismantle the crankcase and rebuild it.
08:03Only once hopefully.
08:04I mean writing things down and taking photographs just to remember.
08:11You've got your case cover bolts.
08:14Your main bearing caps.
08:16Your retainer bolts.
08:17The tensioners.
08:18The tensioners.
08:19I mean you're getting on for 70 odd different kinds of bits and bats.
08:22No wonder they ask you to take pics.
08:24Yeah.
08:25And what did you say about the fastenings?
08:29How many?
08:30Is he alright?
08:33I could murder some scratchings.
08:34Chas.
08:35Yes.
08:36Buck of scratchings please.
08:37No problem.
08:38Did you get any sleep?
08:39Nobody sleeps in hospitals did they?
08:40Hmm.
08:41To be fair I didn't sleep a wink either.
08:42I think it's taking its toll on all of us this hasn't it?
08:43Maybe you couldn't sleep from excitement.
08:44Was that me?
08:45Sarah.
08:46I'm gutted for you.
08:47Are you?
08:48I went downstairs to the cafe because the machine's rubbish.
08:51You know he was the first person I was going to sit down.
08:54What does that mean?
08:55No.
08:56I didn't sleep though.
08:57No.
08:58No.
08:58No.
08:59There you go.
