00:14London calling to the faraway towns
00:18Now war is declared, and battle come down
00:22London calling to the faraway towns
00:24Now war is declared, and battle come down
00:26There you go
00:38Now take it easy on here, alright?
00:40He won't know what's getting
00:42Fresh strawberries, just in
00:46Fibre pallet
00:48Fresh strawberries, best in London, come get em
00:56There you go
01:00Thank you
01:02What's with the lovely big smile?
01:04I used to bring your grandad over
01:06Teas and sandwiches from the flats when it was his shift
01:08Just nice, it feels right
01:10Right, well I've got big shoes to fill in
01:12Oh yeah
01:14You alright? Oi!
01:16You mean to be asking me for them?
01:18Sorry Dad, can I have an apple?
01:20Yeah, of course you can
01:22Here, one day, this'll all be yours
01:24She isn't the Lion King
01:26That was cheeky
01:28No, but seriously, not every kid gets a family business to take on after they've finished school
01:32She'd feel lucky
01:33I'd prefer a job in tech
01:34AI and coding
01:35That's how you get rich
01:36Sorry
01:37Alright, well you'll have to teach me, eh?
01:41Right, so one o'clock, you're gonna be there, yeah?
01:45Yeah
01:46Top quality apples, best in London, come and get em
01:49Right, is that it then?
01:51Yeah, that's it, yeah
01:53Can we at least not just try and talk about it, Peter?
01:56What should I talk about?
01:57You've made your bed, don't you, Lauren?
01:58Alright
02:02Time you go lay in it, eh?
02:07Bye Dad, thank you, the apple
02:09Pleasure
02:12Fresh strawberries, come and get em
02:19So we're agreed then?
02:24Ravi?
02:27Yeah, go on
02:32Paying staff, that's priority one
02:35There's no point fighting to keep our heads above water when we've got no workforce
02:38and a bunch of pay dispute tribunals hanging over us
02:40And what about creditors?
02:41Well, they'll just have to wait
02:43Sorry
02:45Who put you in charge?
02:46My dead ex-husband
02:58Listen
03:00We can get through this, alright?
03:02Just need to hold the line
03:04And cut back on any unnecessary expenditure
03:07It's a 60
03:09Do you remember how important that is?
03:10I doubt it, she's ancient
03:12Still remember mine, though
03:14Getting drunk off cheap cider
03:16Getting felt up by gay waters in the graveyard
03:18Not helping, Priya
03:20Never forgot it, though
03:21And that's my point
03:23I don't need to throw money at her to make it memorable
03:26Yeah, money we don't have
03:27After the year she's had
03:29She deserves the best
03:30Yeah, and that's really admirable, Ravi
03:33But right now, we can't afford it
03:34And whose fault is that?
03:39Don't worry
03:41I'll sort it
03:42So what's your plan then?
04:01Eh?
04:03What, just ignore him?
04:04No
04:05What then?
04:07Because trust me, I've had skin in this game
04:10And the ostrich approach never works out
04:16Harry
04:18I'm trying to help you here
04:21It don't count if it's out of gill
04:23I just need more time
04:24I just need more time
04:43Mum?
04:45Just a minute, darling
04:51Yeah?
04:52How many messes have an apostrophe?
04:54I don't know
04:56Look, advertising typos
04:58Apparently can help things go viral
05:02Er, er, what do you think you're doing?
05:03You're supposed to be taking it easy
05:05No rest for the fabulous
05:07Now, do not look at me like that
05:09Look, I've got an appointment down the surgery later on
05:12And if I'm doing too much, they'll soon let me know
05:15Yeah, and what if you have a heart attack when you get there?
05:17Well, I'll be in the perfect place, won't I?
05:20Right
05:23What is the agenda for tonight?
05:25Nothing much, er, I've got some Dutch beers ordered
05:28I've found a big screen to play the match on
05:30That's it?
05:32What, no, Gouda and Edam cheese board, waffles
05:34Oh
05:36Right, that is it, upstairs put your feet up
05:39Absolutely not
05:41Hang on
05:42Hannah
05:47Hannah!
05:49I thought you were coming home today
05:51My darling
05:52Well, it's not nice being left in the dark, is it?
05:54When were you going to tell me you're selling the Vic?
05:55Calm down a minute, yeah?
05:57You could help me, instead of just standing and looking all smug
06:00Oh, this ain't my smug face, it's my disappointed face
06:05I mean, apparently the apple ain't supposed to fall far from the tree, but you, you're halfway down the hill already
06:09Yeah, you're really not helping mum
06:12Well, he didn't get out of the boot and hide in a cupboard, did he?
06:16I mean, I know they call it marching powder, but
06:19Yeah, can you just please take this seriously?
06:22We've all sold this, trust me
06:25How? How? I'm a dead man
06:27Yeah? Well, they'll have to get past me first
06:30Why are you a dead man?
06:33It's just a saying, mate, I'm all good
06:36Has there been a break in?
06:38Maybe come back later, Kojo
06:40Yeah, we've got a few things to deal with here
06:42Maybe that can help?
06:44We appreciate the offer, but this is a bit above your pay grade, so if you don't mind
06:48It's about the drugs
06:51What was you?
06:53You took them?
06:55Maybe I was helping you
06:57Mate, you need to talk to me, okay? It's alright, we're not cross
07:02I didn't want you to get in trouble, or Mr Mitchell
07:06Oh, how lovely
07:08You know, one day, the townsfolk will sing songs of your nobility
07:13Now tell us where the gear is, Kojo
07:16Who's going to hurt you?
07:17You know what, look at me, now when you don't know, alright?
07:19Just as long as you tell me what you've done with it, everything will be fine
07:24Oh, okay then
07:29I'll flush it down the toilet
07:35Shouldn't you be at the hospital?
07:39It's going to be okay, you know
07:41Platitudes
07:43Really?
07:44Sorry, didn't mean to bite your head off me
07:47Right away, need a punch back, I'm your girl
07:50Just below the waist though, yeah? Can't feel those ones
07:55Just keep thinking of all the things
07:57He's never going to see more and more things, you know
08:01He's never going to see the sun
08:04Or stars
08:05Even the sky
08:07And what if that is all my fault?
08:10You had an addiction, Lauren
08:12Even if the drugs had an impact, it's not like you did it on purpose
08:16It doesn't make it any better
08:18He's still going to be blind, he's still going to be...
08:21He's still starting his life with a disability
08:23Hey!
08:25I was a kid when I got my wheels for life
08:28It's not stopped me, has it?
08:30I get it
08:32Everything you're feeling, it's a lot
08:34And...
08:35Yeah, he's going to have a fight on his hands
08:37But he's also got you there to catch him
08:40And between you and Peter
08:42You've got this
08:44Not as a couple though
08:46Everything else might be up in the air, but that is clear
08:49And something happened?
08:50Yeah
08:51Patrons ain't the smack heads
08:53Throwing herself at any man that moves
08:55I'm not listening to this
08:57You just can't help yourself, can you?
08:58Do you remember what you said to me once, Lauren?
09:00Or was better to tell the truth?
09:07I don't see what the problem is
09:09You wanted a get out of jail free card
09:11Well, you've got one
09:12Sitting over there playing with his dinky toys
09:15It's my mate, I can't
09:16Yeah, my mate
09:17You just flushed 50k's worth of gear down the bog
09:20You thought he was doing the right thing?
09:21No
09:27Ravi
09:33What can I do to help?
09:34I think you already have, mate
09:42You said it yourself
09:44It looks like we've been done in here
09:50It wasn't us that took the gear
09:52It was some low-lives, on the rob, who got lucky
09:59Out of the way, mate
10:03Eric! Stop it!
10:04Eric, stop it!
10:06Give it to me!
10:10If we're gonna do this
10:12Might as well do it properly, eh?
10:14Go on
10:15Laura, Peter, thanks for waiting
10:29You've met Izzy, one of our eye care liaison officers
10:33I'm here for some practical and emotional
10:36So, you've got the results then, yeah?
10:39The genetic test results show a mutation in an eye gene called Pax6
10:46It's what we refer to as a random mutation
10:50Not one inherited from your parents
10:53Oh
10:55So this is because of me then? Because of what I was taking?
11:00As far as we are aware, opiate abuse hasn't been shown to cause this type of gene mutation
11:10So...
11:12So I couldn't have prevented this?
11:15Nothing you did could have led to Jimmy's condition
11:20Jimmy's life will be different to your other son's
11:23But that doesn't mean he can't live a happy and fulfilling life
11:29You might need some time
11:32But Izzy is always here to support you
11:34Remember
11:36You're not alone
11:38Should we give you both a minute?
11:40Let you process what you've just been told?
11:45Yeah
11:59Sorry
12:11Sorry Lauren
12:15This whole time I've been blaming myself
12:18Maybe now we can try and move on
12:29You know, just me and you, focus on Jimmy
12:33Move on?
12:35Well, fair enough, you being an addict
12:38Didn't cause our son to be blind
12:40But you're not off the hook
12:42I told you, Peter, it was just the kiss
12:44Yeah, you said that
12:45It was
12:47And you'd believe me in all, would you?
12:49If I told you that I'd stay round Priya's house
12:51But nothing happened
12:53Or no, we just kissed
12:55Well, from what I heard
12:57It was more Sookie that you, you
12:59She was your type
13:01Really? Look
13:03This is just funny to you, is it then?
13:05No, it's not
13:07It's not, it's not funny to me
13:08In fact, it's, it's actually deadly serious
13:13You have made me feel like the worst woman in the world
13:20For weeks
13:22Like the worst mum in the world
13:24I have been beating myself up about this for so long
13:29All the sleepless nights
13:32And now
13:35We know the truth
13:37And you think one pathetic little sorry
13:40Is gonna make all of that just disappear
13:43Yeah, I mean, we know the truth now, but
13:50I'm not exactly just gonna be popping champagne, am I?
13:54Jimmy's still blind
13:56He is
13:58We've still got the fight of our lives ahead of us
14:00But that, that for me was one little glimmer of hope
14:05One little glimmer of hope for me, Peter
14:08Hmm
14:10And you just
14:12You can't help but paint me out to be some sort of monster
14:16Cos you hate me
14:18You really hate me that much, Peter
14:20No, of course I don't hate you
14:22Look, I don't hate
14:24You've gotta hear me out
14:26I can't stop thinking about
14:28You and Zach
14:30I can't
14:34Will you just keep on repeating that in your head then over
14:37And over and see if it makes it any better
14:40Cos I've got more important things to be dealing with
14:44Shhh
14:46Shhh
14:48Shhh
14:50Sleep right there
14:52Shhh
14:53Shhh
14:54Shhh
14:55Shhh
14:56Shhh
14:57Shhh
14:58Shhh
14:59Shhh
15:01Shhh
15:02Shhh
15:03Shhh
15:05Shhh
15:06Shhh
15:07Shhh
15:08I can explain
15:09Yeah, I think you're better had
15:11I come in late this morning
15:13To all of this
15:14And then I see that the back door had been forced open
15:16Take-ins are gone everything
15:17Everything's gone, everything.
15:18You're messing about, fam.
15:19Hey, what are you talking about?
15:20Everything?
15:21Where's the supply, man?
15:22I've got customers waiting.
15:24Yeah, so everything's gone, apart from this car?
15:35Well, maybe they thought there was something more valuable in the boot.
15:38Rav, what's going on, man?
15:40You told me how that bits to shift.
15:47All right, see me right now, yeah?
15:51Well, this is calm, orkey, yeah?
15:56This is level-headed, orkey.
16:00Let's not see what happens if I have to take it up a level, you get me?
16:02Hold on, hold on, hold on.
16:05Have you called the police?
16:07No, not yet.
16:08A man gets turned over, forgets to call the feds, yeah?
16:11I didn't think it'd be a good idea, considering what was in the boot.
16:13Maybe you're not as dumb as you look.
16:16Well, maybe you are.
16:21Leave him.
16:23Just think of a plan B.
16:26Okey.
16:34You need to sort this.
16:46Anna, you're back.
17:00Just so you know, I'm not talking to you.
17:03But if I was talking to you, I would be asking why you think it's okay to leave me in the dark about everything.
17:09I'm not a little girl anymore, Dad.
17:11Well, you'll always be my little girl.
17:13That sounds like talking.
17:15Well, what do you want me to do?
17:17Perform me a dance or more schedules, then?
17:19I'm sorry.
17:21I'm sorry.
17:22Why didn't you just tell me what's going on?
17:26In the space of an hour, I found out that you're getting a divorce, Elaine's had a heart attack, and I'm losing my home.
17:34The same home that Mum's responsible for destroying by pushing her other ex-husband in front of a moving car driven by a weird tuba killer.
17:44Yeah, well, I've got to admit, it's a lot for a Wednesday.
17:51Come here.
17:52I need a duck.
17:58You smell, by the way.
18:00I know.
18:14I'm smoking six, Dad.
18:18It's not good for your health, Dad.
18:19You might want to pack that in.
18:21What do you want in a barney?
18:22Well, okay.
18:23Someone's salty.
18:24I don't like seeing you like this.
18:26Jarring.
18:29Anyways, so, about my birthday, I know you're trying to be nice in that, and I do really appreciate it, but my sweet 16th in the family restaurant.
18:39Just a bit lame, innit?
18:41Like, little kids' party lame, and you're going to come out and hand out jelly and ice cream, that sort of thing.
18:48So, instead, I was thinking that me and a couple of mates, we can go into Central and, like, try to get into a bar where they don't check IDs.
18:56Obviously, I'm joking, I'm not really, but, like, I'm joking.
19:00You need a venue?
19:01You can have a bar if you want.
19:03How much?
19:04No, that ain't necessarily...
19:05No, no, no, it's on the house.
19:06Name's above the dollar, innit?
19:09I mean, can we?
19:10Dad?
19:12It's your call.
19:15Then yes, of course.
19:16But only if you can make it more, like, club vibe and less dead wine bar, do you know what I mean?
19:22Like, I'm talking proper club lad, like, Ibiza, Marbella, that sort of vibe, yeah?
19:29And it's tonight, by the way.
19:30And thanks, Harry.
19:31All right.
19:32Appreciate it.
19:33Bye, Dad.
19:34Bye, Dad.
19:35Does this not mean you're off the hook?
19:37Okay, how about this guy?
19:39Um, er, Eric Weinmayer, first blind person to scale Everest.
19:40Really?
19:41Ain't no mountain high enough.
19:42Ain't no mountain high enough.
19:43And before he becomes a famous musician or climbs the highest mountain in the world, at least
19:47Peter will stop giving you a hard time.
19:48Peter will stop giving you a hard time.
19:49He has stopped giving you a hard time, hasn't he?
19:50Oh, look, I've done that.
19:51Oh, I've done that.
19:52I've done that.
19:53Oh, you're done so.
19:54Oh, I've done that.
19:55Oh, I've done that.
19:56I've done that.
19:57I've done that.
19:58I've done that.
19:59Okay, how about this guy?
20:01Um, er, Eric Weinmayer, first blind person to scale Everest.
20:03Really?
20:04Ain't no mountain high enough?
20:06And before he becomes a famous musician or climbs the highest mountain in the world, at
20:11least Peter will stop giving you a hard time.
20:14He has stopped giving you a hard time, hasn't he?
20:17Oh, well, I've done it.
20:18Oh, well, I've done it.
20:19You know what male egos are like.
20:23I think I'm just gonna have to face facts.
20:27His dad's always gonna have his back,
20:29but we're not gonna be a happy little family.
20:37Did you, Flewzuck?
20:41Penny, no!
20:43OK, follow-up question.
20:46Is Peter the one?
20:49The other day, when we were at the picnic,
20:52it felt like we was a proper little family.
20:55And Peter was all chuffed with himself
20:57cos he had learnt three chords on a guitar, and...
21:01Yeah, I did, I just...
21:04I looked around and I thought, yeah,
21:07this is it, this is what I want.
21:11Well, there's your answer.
21:14It's all waiting for you out there on a plate, Lauren.
21:16OK, you've done the self-sabotage bit.
21:20Now you've just gotta put it right.
21:22If not for yourself...
21:24then for him.
21:25And for him.
21:32Right, everyone, that's half-time.
21:34And don't forget, shots are only three quid.
21:36Smells rank.
21:37Yanifa, it's a Dutch spirit, infused with juniper berries.
21:41They say it's the ancestor to gin.
21:43Mother's ruin, right up my street.
21:46Down in three.
21:48Hey, how about your dodgy ticker?
21:49Listen, one more bleeding person.
21:51Comments on my sodding health, I swear to God.
21:53Three, two, one.
21:55Elaine, is that a good idea?
21:57You see?
21:58Yeah, you're all right, son.
21:59Well done.
22:00Even more if you didn't make me buy the rounds of it.
22:02Ah, yeah, but that's tradition, isn't it?
22:03Yeah, I'm afraid he's right.
22:05Twiggle.
22:07Twiggle.
22:09Same again, yeah.
22:10Oh, you're all right, son.
22:11Well done.
22:12Even more if you didn't make me buy the rounds of it.
22:14Ah, yeah, but that's tradition, isn't it?
22:15Yeah, I'm afraid he's right.
22:17Twiggle.
22:19Same again, yeah?
22:21Oh, you're lovely.
22:23Lovely.
22:25Right, that's lovely.
22:27Another round?
22:29Yeah, what's the matter?
22:30You don't need to be a doctor to know that knocking back the shots ain't a good one.
22:33You don't need to be a doctor to know that knocking back the shots ain't a good move
22:36less than a week after you get out of hospital.
22:38You should be...
22:39What, putting my feet up?
22:40Taking it easy?
22:41Resting with a nice cup of char?
22:42Please.
22:44Tell her, mate.
22:45She's right.
22:46We're old school.
22:47Proper east end.
22:48Exactly.
22:49Yeah.
22:50So, don't jump the gun just yet.
22:51Proper east end.
22:52I've got to prepare for my final encore.
22:53Go out with a bang.
22:55You know what?
22:56We could have some local talent.
22:58Do some butler in the buff service.
23:01Count me in on that one.
23:02We could have Ravi, Harry, oh and definitely Zack.
23:06Good shout out, Zack.
23:07I've always wondered what he's hiding under those tight shirts.
23:09Or his jeans.
23:11Cheers.
23:16Speaking from experience, the answer is never at the bottom of the glass.
23:21Yeah, you're right.
23:22Do you know what?
23:23I'm not having this.
23:24She might think she's got to go with this.
23:25But he won't.
23:26Hold on.
23:27Where are you going?
23:28Rock.
23:29Keep your line up, will you?
23:30Peter.
23:31Stop him here.
23:32All right, all right.
23:33Peter, just wait.
23:34Zack.
23:35Zack, I want to work now.
23:36Come on, son, just leave it.
23:37I'm leaving it.
23:38What's up, mate?
23:39All right, all right.
23:40It's your mate.
23:41I'm going to ask you this once.
23:42Did you sleep with my fiancée?
23:43What makes you say that?
23:44The other night she stayed round, reckoned you just kissed.
23:46I ain't no mug, mate.
24:04Sounds like she already has.
24:05He's a lie.
24:07You liar!
24:08I reckon you just kissed.
24:10I ain't no mug, mate. Tell me the truth.
24:11Sounds like she already has a kiss on me.
24:14Liar!
24:15Look, this is a conversation you should be having with Lauren,
24:18and if you don't mind, I'm going to be late for work.
24:19Peter, Peter, just leave.
24:20No, no, eh? Finish it. Don't even finish it, all right?
24:22You get a kick out of this, do you?
24:23I sleep in front of people's fiancés.
24:25Go on, Peter.
24:26Good enough, you'll sabotage your own relationship with wit.
24:28You had to ruin mine and all, did you?
24:29Be careful, you get...
24:32Oh!
24:33Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
24:35What?
24:38Do you know what?
24:41We did kiss.
24:42You think I was born yesterday, Zack?
24:43Yeah, that sounds about right, didn't you?
24:44Oh, yeah, no, no, Billy.
24:45Look, nothing happened cos she stopped it.
24:48We was up all night talking about it.
24:51How much she wants to be with you.
24:52Do you know what?
24:54She's too good for you, Peter.
24:56Get off! Get off!
24:58Stop!
24:59Ah!
25:00Whoa!
25:04Was that necessary?
25:06All right, everyone.
25:07Show's over!
25:08Come on.
25:09Come on.
25:10Come on.
25:15Take it easy, all right?
25:17Oh.
25:18This is a lot of work for an ungrateful 16-year-old.
25:22You've just got to make an effort.
25:24This goes well and I'll get some serious brownie points.
25:27Oh, babe.
25:29I know interior design ain't your thing, but this is beyond tacky.
25:34Gina got it from storage.
25:35It's from her dad's Marbella bar.
25:37It's for Ivani.
25:38I said she could have the place for her 16th party.
25:41On the house sort of thing.
25:43If you think all of this is going to make up for what Kojo done, you need your head
25:50tested.
25:51I don't need your help.
25:52Fine.
25:53I'll bet you loved that, didn't you?
25:55Two blokes in your life fighting for you out in the street.
25:58Ooh.
25:59It didn't really look like much of a fight from where I was standing.
26:00There you are again joking.
26:01Why are you always joking?
26:02What would you rather me do, Peter?
26:03Do you want me to stand here and just rub your muscles?
26:04Thank you for your lovely display of masculinity.
26:05Do you know what?
26:06Thanks to you, now everybody out there on the square seems to think I'm some sort of slapper.
26:07Well thanks to you they all think I'm some sort of pathetic joke, Lauren!
26:08If the show fits.
26:10Do you know what?
26:11For a second there today I thought maybe I thought we were dead.
26:14I thought that was a human being killed.
26:16I'm not mad.
26:17If that didn't happen.
26:18But I do.
26:19I'm not mad or mad.
26:20I smell what kind of a mess?
26:21But whatever I'm mad.
26:22You's a good one.
26:23What kind of a mess?
26:24Is that I'm mad?
26:25I'm not mad.
26:26I'm mad or im, is that I'm mad at you?
26:27I don't do my good one, no?
26:28I'd be mad.
26:29I He can't be mad.
26:30Oh, I'm mad.
26:31I'm mad.
26:32I've never mad.
26:33I'd be mad at you.
26:34I'm mad at you.
26:35For a second there today, I thought maybe we can make this work, me and you.
26:39In the doctors, where? Hold your hand.
26:41No, how can I ever get over this?
26:44Oh, my God, Peter, how many times?
26:46It was just a kiss. It was just a kiss.
26:49How can I trust you with men, Lauren? With drugs? What are you doing?
26:52There we go. There we go.
26:54I will bring it up again. My mum's right, isn't she?
26:57Once a slapper, always a slapper.
27:00It's OK. Parents argue. It's just what they do.
27:05You used my addiction against me.
27:14It's not bad for short notice, right?
27:17You know this change is nothing.
27:19You either need to buy my stash or pay me back, one or the other.
27:21So, what's this about that break-in?
27:42Louis?
27:45Louis?
27:46He's upstairs.
27:48No, he's not. I'm telling you, he's not.
27:58Lou?
28:00Louis?
28:02Peter?
28:03They're gone.
28:05Oh, yeah.
28:06Up.
28:06I know.
28:08I know.
28:09You're out.
28:09You know.
28:10And you.
28:10You know.
28:11I know.
28:11You've been ready.
28:12I know.
28:12You've been ready for that.
28:12You're dancing.
28:13Really, man?
28:13You've been ready for me?
28:14That's good.
28:15You're dancing.
28:16You're dancing.
28:25You were dancing.
28:26I know.
28:27I know I have...
28:28You're making it.
28:29I know.
28:30It can be that I know.
28:31It's the pleasure.
28:32I know.
28:32I know I hear you name.
