This is a fantastic property for a first-time buyer.
Seems they left before they finished the kitchen. Yes.
Although I think you'll agree, it's a magnificent space.
What happened to them?
Oh, they probably just ran out of money.
It's happening a lot these days.
Is there anything else that you'd like to see?
I don't think so.
Have a think, but the vendors are keen on a quick sale,
so don't take too long.
We already have masses of interest in this.
Is it true they were killed?
Whoever died here.
Heard they were murdered. Is that why all three are for sale?
Like I said, we have a lot of interest.
It's a very popular street, so... I'll be in touch.
Have you done the potato salad? I've done the sausage rolls.
And I said I'd help out with the bouncy castle. Emma?
Sorry. I was miles away. Well, we will be soon.
I'll do the potato salad. Yeah, don't hold back on the mayo.
Hey, John. I've been thinking about the house.
You're not getting cold feet, are you?
I'm gonna get the estate agent round to value it soon.
I just wanted to get today out of the way first.
What?
Nothing. Let's just get to this party.
NEIGHBOURS CHATTER
CAMERA CLICKS
What are you doing? My photography project.
What is it? Street life in suburbia? HE CHUCKLES
No. It's called "My Prison".
Ooh... Your girl's in a funny old mood.
Life's just a photo to be posted.
It's for her A-levels. Really?
Christ, they can do anything now.
Remember when we had to do proper subjects?
Sausage roll? You know, Sonia's done sausage rolls.
Has she? What, the best cook in England?
Hey, who's done sausage rolls?
John! I thought you were doing potato salad.
Mmm. Mm, not bad. Hm.
It was her cooking that first attracted me to her, you know?
Really?
I mean, that and her... Shall we, er... get a beer?
All right.
How's work? Oh, you know.
Bank holidays are good.
CAMERA CLICKS
Here. Cheers.
Any luck finding a job?
I'm sure the world still needs salesmen.
Couple of interviews.
So, this is your last Shelbury Drive street party.
Hadn't thought of that. Suppose it is.
We'll miss you, mate.
Ah, look out, Big Brother's watching.
Sitting a comfortable distance from the meat.
ALAN CHUCKLES
Right. These vol-au-vents won't eat themselves.
Sonia's made sausage rolls as well. Oh, what? The best cook in England?
Hey, John.
I think we should stay. What?
That's what I was trying to say before.
I... I don't think we should sell.
I think we should do the kitchen. The extension.
Seriously?
Yeah, I mean, I've got that money just sitting there.
We've talked about it for years. And besides, we...
We love this place. And...
..I think it'd be good for us.
You know, start something new, like a joint venture.
"Something new" was moving house. No, I know, but...
We discussed this. We made a decision.
Well, you made a decision, John, and I totally understand,
but moving's gonna cost us a fortune to have what we already have.
But doing the kitchen extension... that could be exciting.
John, I know you're having a shit time,
but work's going really well for me at the moment.
I love it here. I love the neighbours.
Beth's never known any different.
And, you know, like, she's got enough stuff going on
with college and failed relationships
without having to move to a new place, it's...
SHE SIGHS
I promise. For all of us.

Extension?
Yeah. I mean, I've talked about it for years.
Sure, but why now?
Cos I've got the money, picked up a lot of cases last year,
so, you know, that kind of...
You look concerned. Concerned? No!
No, course not. I just thought you were...
Hey, I'm thrilled you're staying! Oh, OK, right. I'm relieved.
And it won't affect your light, and it means we're staying.
And, you know, where else are we gonna find neighbours like you?
Mm-hm-hm.
How does John feel about it? Does he not wanna move?
Ah, you know John.
He's never made a big decision in his life, but he'll get there.
And besides, until he's in employment,
I'm the one earning the money, so...
You know, I've always fancied a new kitchen.
Well, I think it's great news.
SHE SIGHS
How could he move away from Crazy Nick?
He still freaks me out. I'm surprised he's here.
He's usually behind those blinds. I bet he's got a secret.
Nah, I reckon he's as dull as he seems...
apart from the dogging.
SONIA LAUGHS
Hey, maybe I'll end up defending him in court.
Oh, I will never understand how your job works.
I mean, it's pretty simple.
Some lowlife gets into trouble, and I try and keep them out of jail.
Sounds a bit like teaching.
Yeah, but if you guys do your job right, then I don't have one.
Mm... True enough.
Is there anywhere I can put these? I made sausage rolls.
Best sausage rolls outside the EU.
HE CHUCKLES
Well, let's hope the good old British weather doesn't let us down.
Oh, is that quiche?
They look lovely, Barbara.
You could just put them over there on the table.
Oh, I heard another car got stolen. I hope you're looking into it.
Well, catching criminals isn't my job, I'm afraid.
Yeah, she just gets them off.
Little sods.
I remember when you could leave your door open in this street.
Oh, come on, it's not that bad.
Yeah, I think this street's lovely. I think we're lucky.
It's changing, though, for the worse. Hm.
Speaking of changing, we're thinking of doing the kitchen extension,
but don't worry, it won't affect your light.
It's just the one level.
Oh, God. Hello, Mr Magpie. How's the wife and kids?
Oh, you believe in all that nonsense, don't you?
Oh, yeah, you don't mess with magpies.
Why does everyone need more space?
We've lived here for 35 years without once thinking
we need a bigger house than the one we've bought.
Erm... I don't know.
I think we've just always wanted to update the place, and...
you know, Beth's not getting any younger,
and you know what it's like having teenagers in the house.
I'm sorry, Barbara.
Have you told Derek? No, not yet.
But I'll... I'll sit you down and talk you through it,
show you the plans, but honestly, it's nothing to worry about.
SHE EXHALES
I didn't mean to mention Marcus. I was just trying to...
Oh, God. I feel really stupid.
How old do you reckon he'd be now? Must be late 20s.
You talk about him like he's dead.
Come on, people don't just disappear.
I mean, you said so yourself,
you could hear the fights through the wall.
Yeah, I know, but that doesn't mean...
I just... I can't imagine what they've gone through.
MICROPHONE SQUEAKS
Hey. It's time for a toast.
Please rise.
After three. One, two, three...
ALL: Shelbury Drive!
BOTH: Shelbury Drive!
EMMA: John?
TEXT ALERT
These are the plans we had drawn up, remember?
Forgotten we'd had those done.
I've always wanted an island. See what you think.
I need to be down at the magistrates' court by ten,
but if you do have any concerns, then we can chat tonight.
You are gonna be OK with this?
Like, I want this to be for us, not just me.
Well, you could have asked me.
Well, we've been discussing it for years.
Sometimes, you just have to jump.
I've asked for some quotes from builders, so we'll see.
Where from? Pine Bridge Forum online.
I should be back early afternoon. Make sure Beth gets to college.
Oh, and I've sent an email to Barbara and Derek,
just letting them know we need a party wall agreement.
They'll probably take ages to respond,
so if you do see them, tell them to check their emails.
We'll have to let them know in writing,
but I think a quill and parchment will be quicker.
Do you know something?
For the first time in a long time, I feel excited.
See you later.
SHE WHIMPERS
I'm sorry. I wish I could help, but... got to go to work.
Yeah, someone's got to keep those criminals out on the streets.
Well, if there's anything left to do, I'll only be a couple of hours.
And John's here to help.
Hey, why don't you two come over for a drink tonight?
Finish off some of these leftovers. Yeah. Yeah, that'd be great.
I might have a builder round at some point
if any of them actually reply to my ad,
but other than that, we're totally free.
See you then.
Well, we have all that booze left over.
Besides, I wanna hear more about this extension.
You think they'll actually do it?
I hope so. And it won't affect us.
I mean, apart from the builders and the Portaloo.
I hadn't thought about the Portaloo. You don't actually care, do you?
Your mate's not gonna move, isn't that good?
Alan? Yeah, course.
HE CHUCKLES
HE SIGHS
Is there any milk?
No, we're out. You could always go to the shops.
Yeah, I could. Or I could have toast.
Is there any bread? Er, no. We're out of that, too.
Jesus. Can't you do a shop? It's not like you have a job.
Beth, did, erm...
Mum tell you about the, er... the extension? No.
Could be quite disruptive.
More rows, you mean? Come on, Beth, that's a bit...
Do you really think it's a good idea starting something like this
when you're both so...?
When we're both so what?
Your mum has a very stressful job, and sometimes, it's just...
it's not easy for her to leave it behind, you know?
Not as easy as it was for you, though.
I had my reasons for resigning. You know that.
I need to go to college.
You know what, Beth? Sometimes, you can be a right...
UNDER BREATH: ..pain in the ar...
HE SIGHS
Well, Mrs Barnett, are you applying for bail for your client today?
Sorry, Madam, before we do this,
could I ask the arresting officer a question?
I think we've heard all we need to hear.
On the contrary. Yes, go ahead.
You are the arresting officer, is that right? I am.
And when you arrested Mr Masood,
he confessed to indeed committing the crime
for which he'd been arrested?
He did.
And he did this in language you understand?
Of course. Right.
So I can take from that that you speak -
or at the very least understand - Bengali.
What?
Abul, do you remember making a confession to the police officer?
Abul?
Hmm. So, did you have a native speaker with you at the scene?
You know, to, erm... hear the confession.
He said it in English because he speaks English.
We both know that's not true.
Well, he has a very strong Pakistani accent,
but he does speak... He's Bangladeshi, not Pakistani.
Whichever. Can we just take a moment, please?
He was out of control. The man's guilty. He confessed.
He was erratic. He was terrified.
He was being manhandled by a huge bouncer.
Of course he was out of control, but he can't have made a confession.
At least not in words you'd know.
No way, this is crap. She's... She's talking rubbish.
Have we met before, Officer?
I don't think so. Hmm. I think we have.
Wasn't there another incident with a young Asian man?
I don't think this is relevant.
Get on with it, please. Sorry, Madam.
On the basis that the officer couldn't have heard a confession,
and without any conclusive CCTV evidence,
the court has no choice but at to the very least grant my client bail.
What?
In the circumstances,
I'm going to adjourn the case pending further inquiries.
Your client will be bailed until further notice.

No, they were very clear.
They're not gonna sign the party wall agreement.
Well, what did they say?
"Thank you for sending us this,
"but we are not gonna sign the party wall agreement
"under any circumstances.
"The lack of light will kill our garden,
"and our garden matters to us."
Well, Barbara didn't give me any indication that she...
Do you know what? There's nothing they can do, ultimately.
It would be good if they were on board, but... is what it is.
I'm not so sure.
What do you mean? You know what those two are like.
There's something odd about them. She cries when she waters that tree.
All right, but, you know, this isn't about being odd.
It's about the law, and trust me, the law's with us.
Look... I know you want this, and I get it, I do, honestly.
And I know that my situation hasn't exactly been easy on us.
And you've been amazing, but...
HE SIGHS
Well, it's gonna be a lot of grief and stress,
and Beth has told me that she's had enough of us rowing.
And she's right. I just think...
..she needs, like, a change in her life that a move would give her.
I know what you're doing, John.
You're pleased the neighbours are gonna make this difficult for us.
You're recruiting our daughter to make me change my mind,
hoping that I'll cave in.
Well, I won't.
Did you speak to Alan? About what?
They've invited us over for drinks tonight.
They have? Yeah. It'd be nice.
We can celebrate with them.
Emma, yeah? Ah, you must be Lee.
Right, er... Come in.
We've tried to keep it really simple.
We're looking at two new steels here, maybe three.
Sounds pricey.
Well, yeah, I mean everything's pricier than it was, but, you know,
at first glance, I can't see you've got any hidden surprises there.
So it's doable? Well, yeah, everything's doable.
So, when you looking to start? I mean...
Soon, while the money's there. All right.
Well, I've got a job booked in for later in the year,
so that'd work for me.
But, you know, like I say, sooner, the better.
And you've got your planning permission sorted?
Planning permission shouldn't be a problem.
It's four metres and one storey.
Four? Well, you know it's three for a definite yes, you know that?
Yeah, I know. Erm... I'll get on it.
Party wall?
The agreement you're gonna need with your neighbour
regarding the shared wall. Yeah, yeah.
We know what a party wall agreement is.
You're gonna need them on your side, trust me.
Right, that's it, so, the timings work for me.
I'll be in touch with your estimate.
Oh, right. Yeah, cheers.
Thanks. I'll see you out. Nah, no need.
DOOR SHUTS
Why do builders always presume it's the men who know what's going on?
So, what do you think?
I don't know what's going on.
John, come on. Don't be difficult. I want us to do this together.
You made a decision without me.
If I waited around for you to make decisions, we'd still be single.
Sorry.
Look, I just think this might be an exciting thing for both of us to do.
Is this because it's my money that's paying for it?
For God's sake. No, it is.
You haven't got a job, and you can't bear the fact that I have.
Don't be ridiculous.
I know what it is. It's some stupid emasculation thing.
That's rubbish. Then what is it, then? Tell me.
Honestly, it's... it's nothing.

DOORBELL RINGS
John?
DOORBELL RINGS
KNOCKING ON DOOR
OK, OK!
Oh, Derek. Erm... Do you wanna come in for a cup of tea?
15 years, we've been neighbours,
and not once have we had a cross word.
Er, yeah, that's right.
We were understanding when you wanted to build into the roof.
We allowed the scaffolding to encroach into our garden.
We accepted that you having a teenage daughter
meant occasionally the thickness of the walls would be tested
by the decibels of her dreadful music.
We even kept quiet
during some of you and your husband's louder disagreements.
But this, this... this new thing, it's...
Are you sure you don't wanna come in for a cup of tea?
Very, thank you.
Derek, you've been great neighbours, you have, really,
which is why we don't see any reason to fall out over this.
Honestly, if you see what we're proposing...
Our garden's important to us. Can you understand that?
We like it precisely how it is. We're not doing anything to it.
You are, because you're doing something to yours.
But I don't see how that's gonna affect...
Look, it matters to us! Can't you understand that?
You know, the noise hasn't exactly been one-way.
You and your son had some pretty intense arguments.
You never mention Marcus. Never.
Can you hear me? Never.
Well, you've got a fight on your hands.
And it's a fight you're not gonna win.
ALAN: Four metres? That's not nothing.
Come off it, you'll barely see it, the height of your fence.
Don't worry about us. Doesn't bother us either way.
Ah, thanks. I wish I could say the same for Derek and Barbara.
Come on, you know what they're like, stuck in their ways.
They'll get over it eventually.
No, I feel bad. I wish they didn't feel the way they do.
I don't wanna upset them. They're old, and they hate change.
They killed their teenage kid and buried him under the tree.
Stop it. What?
They did not kill their kid and bury him under a tree.
If you say so.
He did lose his shit when I mentioned Marcus.
You see? I told you.
Biscuit? Have you seen Biscuit?
No, he's a cat. He'll be fine.
He'd do anything to kill that cat. Is John not coming, then?
Yeah, he's just gone to get some more booze.
He doesn't need to do that. We're trying to get through ours.
Hey, I should warn you, though, he's been in a bit of a weird mood.
I don't know. I just thought he'd be more excited about this extension.
In my experience, no man has ever really wanted to do anything.
But most of us are happy enough for our wives to get things done.
Sexist. Yeah, sexist.
What? I'm just saying.
John would probably rather take the money and go for a long holiday.
Or buy a car.
Instead, he's adding four metres to the house
to find himself in an even bigger kitchen he can't cook in.
John's a very good cook. Yes, he is. Thank you, Sonia.
I mean, he can knock out a curry, but...
No, he can do more than that.
He has several minced-base dishes down too. Minced!
THEY LAUGH
This is more than just a... cooking space.
It's gonna be like a whole new area for our family to relax in.
You know the worst thing of all?
Oh, let it go, Al. No, no, go on.
The poor guy's not working.
The last thing he needs is a bunch of real men grafting for his missus
while he's sat next door watching Loose Women.
Who's watching Loose Women?
SONIA SIGHS
BISCUIT MEOWS
Do you want your dinner too? Come. Good boy. Mwah.
No, my point is that she never says a civil word to me.
Come on. Beth's fine. She's a normal young woman.
She's not like any normal young woman I've ever met.
I'm hoping that's not many.
EMMA LAUGHS
I love her. She's my daughter. But, you know, we just...
We don't have anything in common.
Well, that's not true. You're both work-shy.
Ooh. I'm joking!
THEY CHUCKLE
SHE INHALES
Sonia... Just saying.
Listen, I wouldn't swap Beth for anyone in the world,
but not having a child to worry about does feel quite appealing.
You don't mean that. I do.
I spend half my life trying to get idiot kids out of jail,
and I do wonder if we all just stopped having them,
the world would be a better place. Hear, hear.
I wouldn't have anyone to teach. JOHN CHUCKLES
You hate teaching. That's not the point.
And I don't hate it. I'm just over it.
I just regret not having a child sometimes, that's all.
Jesus, Sonia, you told me when we first met that...
Can we change the subject?
I'll get some coffee. I'll give you a hand.
No. I'll go.
Cheers.
So, Sonia's a fan of your cooking?
Seemingly not everyone thinks I'm totally useless.
I just don't remember you cooking for them, that's all.
I do the cooking when we have people round.
I'm sure I've cooked for them before. OK.
You're probably right. I was just surprised she said it, that's all.
HE SCOFFS
Where are you going? The toilet. Is that all right?
You know what they say about a watched kettle?
Never boils.
A watched kettle... Leave me alone, Alan.
Sonia, I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have said... But you did. You always do.
OK.
If that's how you feel.
DOORBELL RINGS
Ah! Your daughter said I might find you here.
Oh, right. I thought the street party went well.
Er, yeah, yeah, it was nice.
Ooh!
A little soiree?
Oh, sort of. Nick, can I help you?
Yes, I just wondered, could you move your car?
Because it's in front of my drive.
Well, hardly. I mean, there's plenty of space...
Well, I am petitioning for permits.
Why would you do that?
Well, I'm working nights, so I don't want to run the risk
of coming home in the morning
to find someone's parked in front of my drive.
OK, well, I've had a drink, so...
Don't worry,
I won't use the CCTV to report you for drink driving.
HE CHUCKLES
OK, I'll go and get my...
I noticed there's a planning application in for an extension.
Oh, wow, Nick, that was quick work.
Will there be much disruption -
that's the question?
Cos I work... I work nights, so I do sleep in the day.
Don't worry. We promise we'll keep the disruption down to a minimum.
Four metres?
Mm-hm. Four metres.
Four...
That's not a given.
Anyway, thanks for your help...
You OK, Nick? Ah, I'll let Emma fill you in.
Mm. It's lovely to see you all getting on so well.
I would have thought the tension in there - unbearable.
What?
This price includes everything except the internal finish.
That'll be a separate payment.
That's depending on what your requirements are and that.
Right, so then there's the kitchen itself and the new doors.
Which I can fit, but, like I say,
that'd be part of this finishing quote.
CUTLERY CLANGS
Sorry, I was just...
And then there's the foundations.
Well, surely that's included in the initial build price?
Yeah, it is, but it's your tree survey.
It's thrown up some issues with the roots.
It looks like we're going to have to dig deeper,
and if that's the case,
then it's gonna double what's on there for the ditch.
Sorry, which tree?
That one on the border there.
Boundary roots can be a problem.
You could always ask them to move it.
That'd be a lot cheaper for you, that's for sure.
Anyway, either way, is that the kind of number you had in mind?
Well, you know, it is a little bit steeper than I expected.
Look, you're not gonna get a better price, honestly.
And also, bear in mind, I wanna start straight away.
And I always think it's better
to just crack on before all them doubts start creeping in.
And you'll be done - 12 weeks, latest.
Obviously, you're gonna need your planning fast.
How fast?
Oh... now.
Tea? No.
You're all right.
MOUTHS: OK.
All right. Thanks.
See you. Cheers.
I don't like him.
Well, he's not here to be your friend.
And he not expensive because I've been asking around.
Yeah, well, they're never gonna agree to moving that tree.
It's gonna cost us.
SHE SIGHS
It's not too late to stop all this, you know?
Stop it, why?
I don't know. I just feel...
What? Scared?
Look, I know it's gonna be disruptive,
but this is a net positive for us. Can't you see that?
You know, you could get involved. Might give you a focus.
What, because I'm unemployable?
I didn't say that.
Yeah, you didn't need to.
Lee, it's Emma from 29 Shelbury Drive.
We don't need to think any more, we're good to go.
Planning's not gonna be a problem. Give me a call.
SHE MOUTHS
All right, bye.
Hey!
Have you seen this?
No, what is it?
The street group chat. Mm.
Oh, yeah. Seemingly, that psycho cat at number six
has taken down another schnauzer.
Nasty, apparently.
And Nick's put up more CCTV
of someone walking past his house at 1am,
like it's illegal.
Number four are asking for more kids' books.
I mean, is there anything them kids ain't bloody read?
What's this here?
Derek getting busy objecting to the build.
Why would he do that?
Maybe we should.
You're not being serious?
I might be.
They're our friends.
Besides, we don't want them moving. God knows who'd be in there next.
Look what happened when that nice old couple sold Number 16.
A bloody CCTV freak guy moved in.
I mean, who knows what goes on behind these doors?
At least with John and Emma, we know they're not gonna kill us.
SHE CHUCKLES
Alan?
I've got a client today. I've gotta go.
See you.
SHE SIGHS
HE CHUCKLES
Shall I read you what I've said?
Sure.
"Attached is the link to the planning department website.
"All you need to do is click on the address, 29 Shelbury Drive,
"and then click on the objection button.
"You can then scroll down to leave a reason for your objection.
"We have done so on the grounds that our garden..." I miss him.
I miss him so much.
What can I say, Ian? He's innocent.
So you're telling me
that your client broke into a phone shop at 4am
because he thought it was his own house?
He was out of it on high-strength marijuana.
He stole a thousand pounds' worth of phones.
What kind of house did he think he lived in?
You've obviously not taken high-strength marijuana.
Have you? Course not.
Look, I need to make a call.
Look, all I'm asking is you and I come to some sort of a deal.
It's his seventh offence. The kid's a serial thief.
Prove it. Anyway, the prisons are full.
Oh, well, shall we just let him off, shall we (?)
All he does is rob. For God's sake,
he got convicted for selling kid's bikes
that still had "happy birthday" written on them.
Why are you telling me this?
Because we can't keep letting this kid walk.
We need to put him away.
That's your job, not mine. I don't do deals.
You got your way, then?
Sorry? I've no idea what you're talking about.
Thanks to you, I've been suspended. Right.
Well, as I'm sure you're aware,
that has nothing to do with me and everything to do with you.
You stitched me up with that Indian kid.
Bangladeshi, and that's not true.
You lied about his confession and we both know why.
Now, can you get out of my way?
This isn't over.
Thanks for that.
Here you go.
So, look, you know I hate asking,
but...
..we've got these neighbours,
they've got loads of objections, they're determined,
they're old and have nothing else going on in their lives.
So, you're not gonna ask me how I am, eh?
Been a while.
Dad, I've been busy with work and Beth, and... John.
But anyway, just to make this clear,
I'm not asking you to, like, intervene
or do anything that might seem... you know?
I just thought you might know somebody on the planning committee.
Mm. You're a solicitor.
You know exactly what you're asking me.
How's John?
He looking after you?
Well, he's left his job, so I'm working all hours.
Shame we don't all see each other as often as we used to.
Come on, Dad.
If he even knew I was here talking to you, he'd be...
Be what?
You can't blame him for how he feels.
He trusted you with our money - we both did.
He just needs to relax, that's all.
Right, well, he's not like you.
HE SCOFFS
And that's not necessarily a bad thing, is it?
So... how's my little Beth?
She's all right, you know, teenage girls...
I had one once.
So what do you reckon? So...
..you're not gonna tell John that you've asked me?
OK. I'll see what I can do.
And if you need any help now John's not earning...
What, like paying us back the money you owe us?
I'll be in touch.
Beth? Beth!
You need to eat something.
KNOCK AT DOOR
Oh, hi.
Can I have a...? I'm actually in the middle...
Right, well, do you know who owns that van that was here earlier?
And there was a car.
Well, the van's the builder's.
The builder, right.
He was here for a long time.
And, you know, it's unacceptable, which is why we need the permits.
So, I'm gonna pop it on the street group chat,
and I'm going to also ask you to sign my petition.
Why would I sign that?
Well, because people are using our street to park their cars.
You've got a driveway? Yes...
..I have.
Right, well, erm...
I'm sorry, mate, I think you're overreacting.
I've got to go, I'm busy. What...?
DOOR SLAMS
MUFFLED: It's that lunatic from across the street!
Beth... I'm doing soup!
You can have soup!
You want bread with it?
Oh, sorry, Ian. Nice job with the Bangladeshi kid.
Free to maim to his heart's content.
Oh, please.
You and that copper have got history, then.
She's a racist, OK?
PHONE CHIMES
God's sake, Nick.
People are allowed to park their cars.
ECHOING: 'I heard they were killed.
'I heard they were murdered.'
What do you get up to all day?
JOHN: 'I see people.' 'Hmm.'
SONIA: 'Oh, you buy into all that nonsense, don't you?'
EMMA: 'Oh, yeah, you don't mess with magpies.'
BETH: 'He's not a good person. Marcus said he was violent.'
I can't believe this is happening to us.
'That you're doing this to us.'
Your old man can't do you a favour?
Hmm, not for free, no.
I could lose a lot of money,
so let's just make sure that doesn't happen.
The... is wrong with you?
With me? Yeah, why would you say all that?
I thought we were mates? So did I.
