Original subtitles

We do a sponsored mini -marathon for charity.

I'll do it.

I want to do it too.

Yeah, I'm in.

Wait, that lad over the road.

You and him aren't... I mean, I know it's none of my business. No, it's not.

Dawson. I'm Ella's dad. Didn't you know? What exactly is your problem here, Dad?

The pub and the flat and the expensive presents.

All you need to do is smile a lot and make sure they're having a good time.

It's really not very taxing. We're all right, aren't we?

Me and you.

Don't know.

You didn't hear anything, though?

No. No, that's not why I come down.

I've come through, it was all.

Figured a nip of whiskey might help me drop off.

And you never saw his face?

He was wearing a hoodie.

Trevor! Pauline, Jesus, are you OK?

Yeah, yeah, just a bit of a shock, that's all.

You didn't have to come down.

Of course I did.

Nothing was taken.

Well, that's hardly what I was worried about.

Sounds like he was more scared of her than she was of him. That I can well

believe. My guess is just some kid chanting his arm.

We'll take a quick drive around the area.

But whoever it was, probably back at home by now, hiding under his covers.

You going to be all right?

Yeah, yeah. Don't worry about me.

Good. Worst thing you can do is let it get to you.

I'll check back tomorrow, OK?

Thanks, Cameron.

Thank you.

Do you want another coffee?

No, no, no, no. You go on home.

I shouldn't have rung you in the first place. Nonsense.

I have no intention of going home now. I'm stopping with you until you open.

Trevor, it's fall in the morning.

Which is precisely why you will need more coffee.

Oh, this is what it's all about, isn't it?

Up with the lark and out amongst nature.

Fresh autumn air and... Season of mist and mellow

fruitfulness.

Wordsworth? Keith.

Sorry? John Keith.

Did him at school.

Oh, no, yeah. No, that's what I meant. Keith.

Keith was... Keith was the one I meant.

Look, it's past seven. I don't think he's coming. Why don't we just make a

thought, you and I?

Hmm? What?

Oh, no, no, no, I'm sure he'll be here. He seems very committed to this.

I'm not so sure about that. I've known Fergus for rather a long time. He gets

very excited about an idea for a while.

Here he is. Oh, yes, here he is. Morning.

Oh, it's breaking, isn't it?

Season of mist and mellow fruitfulness.

Heats. Oh, that fella. I remembered him from English.

I could never really get on with poetry.

Oh, me neither.

Half of it didn't even rhyme. I know. What's all that about?

OK,

casual pace this morning.

Ease us into the new regime.

Twice around the park and then we'll work on reducing the time later.

OK?

Let's do this.

You're up.

Yeah.

So are you.

Well, um... I've got a job on first thing, so...

Right.

I'll put the kettle on, shall I?

Please.

An hour?

Again?

What is it with this morning grooming regime of his?

Don't know.

Don't care.

Bye.

What are you doing?

Out of clothes. Need to borrow a T -shirt.

War drug.

What's in the drawer, Craig?

Oh, don't tell me. What you get up to in the privacy of your own bedroom, that's

your business.

I never judge.

Nice.

Heller up yet?

Already left.

Bathroom's free.

It'll be incremental.

A steady climb. As we go on, we'll work on increasing pace and decreasing time.

Exactly.

Which means for this afternoon's run, we'll have to... This afternoon's run?

The mini -marathon's only two weeks away.

Ideally, we'd have started training a lot earlier than this. We really are

to have to do twice a day.

Look, Roger, if you're not sure you're up for it and there is...

No shaming.

Well, you know.

It's fine.

Don't be so silly.

I can do this.

Absolutely. Of course you will.

We're a team, right, Rog?

Good stuff.

I'd better be off. I can run you two into town, if you like.

Oh, that would be great. Thanks, Fergus.

It's a good idea.

No problem.

What are you doing tonight?

I don't know.

Nothing, probably.

Actually, what are you doing now?

Well, I'm supposed to be going to my course lecture.

You know, here, where you've been driving me for the past 20 minutes.

I mean, I'm supposed to be going to work, but... Do you know what?

I was a bit fancy today.

Right, and you can just take a day off like that, can you?

Of course I can.

I'm the best mechanic this side of the Mersey. They can't afford to fire me.

Oh, really?

Today's not a day for working.

Today is a day for driving nowhere and doing nothing.

All right, then.

It's the proper little water, baby.

As soon as I put her in, I can't get her out again.

To take it back to me, I was saying, I could swim length before anyone else my

age.

What? You used to crawl along the bottom whilst pretending to swim on the top.

I did not.

I never got to go swimming at all.

My dad was banned from the leisure centre.

Incident on the eye -diving board.

We don't talk about it.

Um,

Badger, why are you blowing that up before you even get there?

I don't know, really.

I think we need to see someone.

A counsellor.

Lisa. We're not okay, Dan.

And I don't even... What?

I don't even know why.

We don't need to see somebody, Lisa. That's not us.

Is it?

Me and you, we always have.

This feels different.

There.

And I can use it in the car too.

Get rid of that old cushion.

What's happened?

I've got to go.

See you tonight.

Lisa?

Right.

Let's get our little mermaid up and at them.

Oh, that must be special branch calling.

You keep questioning the thought there, Tiggly.

I'll handle it.

I understand you left yesterday's event earlier than expected.

Might I ask why?

Erm... I was feeling poorly.

And how are you feeling now?

Better. Good.

Then you have no reason not to call by the office. I'll see you soon.

Bro!

Here you go. Thank you.

I think this is a bit of an overreaction.

I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Yeah, but bars on the windows.

Place is going to end up looking like the blind beggar. What?

The pub the craze used to drink in. Don't you know your history?

Well, I'm better on the Renaissance, actually.

They're not exactly prison bars, are they?

Look,

Pauline, I just feel happier, that's all. You being by yourself and

Look, if your husband was here, it'd be a different story.

When is he back, anyway?

Don't know.

Haven't heard from him in days.

They were just about to go round Cape Horn. Can't get a signal there.

I thought these cruise ships had satellite phones these days.

Maybe they're not as reliable as people make out, you know.

It's our wedding anniversary tomorrow.

Well, our second anniversary. We're married twice.

Long story. Well, you'll have to tell me at some time.

Like you say, it's always good to learn a bit of history.

Cheeky!

Oi.

Do you not knock?

What were you doing? Looking at porn.

I was, actually. And the really weird stuff and all.

Yeah, right.

Here you go.

What's that?

You got the Roberts account?

How?

No idea.

I went down there fully expecting them to wait me time for two hours, as per

usual, but suddenly they came to the side with us.

Is that soup?

What? Do you like it?

Mmm.

Yeah. I do, actually. It's sort of, erm...

Trendy. It's all right, isn't it? They ordered it online.

Tailored to fit.

Hey, this isn't part of some big midlife crisis, is it?

You're not going to go and get an earring as well, are you? Nah!

Maybe a tattoo.

This is a regular thing for you, is it?

Bunking off work, driving to the middle of nowhere, staring at clouds.

I'm thinking of making it regular. You are so getting fired.

What's worse, getting fired or getting bored?

Getting bored.

There you go, then.

Same shit, different day.

It's good to have the odd escape from it all.

I figured you needed one and all.

I think I've needed one for a long time.

She's not picking up.

Who?

Ella. Her mate called. She didn't turn up for her lectures.

It's not exactly against the law, is it? All through school, never so much as

pulled her thicky. We used to think she was abnormal.

Something's happened.

Nothing's happened.

Jesus, she's not a little kid. She can do what she wants.

Do you know something about this?

No.

Look, she's probably just gone off with Finn somewhere.

Finn? You picked her up this morning.

You what?

And you didn't think to tell me. It's none of my business, is it? And you seem

to have calmed down about the whole thing anyway. Because I thought it was

handled. What does that mean?

Handled by who?

Bradley?

Oh, hello.

I want to speak to Cameron.

He's in bed. He was on a night shift last night.

Hey!

What do you think you're doing?

Cameron!

Excuse me, who the hell do you think you are? You can't just barge in here.

Where's your son, Finn?

How should I know?

What's it got to do with you?

Dawson.

Was I too subtle for you the other day, is that it?

Shall I make things a little clearer, ex -DI Miller?

I don't want my daughter going out with some second -rate little drug dealer.

And I'm guessing you don't want the people around here suddenly asking how

exactly you've gone from decorated detective to, well, to what you are now.

Nothing more than a glorified traffic warden.

No offence.

I'll talk to Finn.

Good.

I'll talk to Finn because the last thing I want is him associating with people

like you.

No offence.

Guess we're on the same page then.

Oh, hi there.

Hiya. Oh, sorry, I had to bring them along again today. No cover.

That's our prisoner. We had to arrest him this morning, didn't we, Igly?

Yeah.

For what?

Blowing down our little pig house.

I thought that was a wolf.

Was it?

Or is that what the bear wanted us to think?

Um... Janice is here.

Right in, please.

Right in, please.

Oh, do you want to leave Igley here?

I'll watch him.

It's probably for the best.

Come on, then.

There we go.

Now, you look after him. You wait there.

Mummy won't be long.

Don't you need an extra pair of hands here?

Mrs Haddon's flapper valve.

It's the stuff of legend within the plumbing community.

There's a plumbing community?

Yes, there's a plumbing community.

All right.

Only I thought you got me here because you wanted to talk to me about

What is it, Dan?

Lisa.

Things aren't good, mate. Just lately we've, uh... Well, we fight.

A lot.

Over nothing.

She's on about seeing a counsellor.

I don't want to do that, but the way things are going... When did all this

It didn't. It just... sort of happened.

Slowly.

That's what doesn't make any sense. I mean, it's not like anything's actually

changed, you know.

How has nothing changed?

What do you mean?

Lisa's mum passes away, Barry moves in, you have a baby girl.

Lisa goes from secretary or whatever to running her own... company.

We hardly ever see each other anymore.

There's always something happening.

I mean, we never have any time.

We're never alone.

When did you get so clever?

I've always been clever. You just never thought to ask my advice.

Well, I'm glad I did.

Thanks, mate.

Oh, and just so you know, I've always got your back and all in case things

off next door or anything.

Oh, great.

That's right, I've no mum.

You dickhead.

You're going to have to choose one.

I can't send you to all three.

The catalogue?

Magazine pays better.

Oh, right.

Magazine it is, then. I'll arrange a car to pick you up at four. Thanks for

coming in.

Right.

And you're definitely feeling better.

Don't want you walking out on another job halfway through, do we?

So, if you think there's any reason that might happen again, now would be the

time to tell me.

Erm... At the party, it looked

like some other girl... Well, it felt like there were...

..expectations. What sort of expectations?

I don't know.

Perhaps you're asking me whether some of my clients offer extra services of

their own.

I think so.

Well, if they do, then that's their business, not mine. I certainly don't

penny of it. And I'll happily take to court anyone who suggests otherwise.

Denise, all I ever expect from you is to do the assignment as offered. Anything

else?

It's your choice.

But I don't want to do anything else.

Then I don't feel a problem.

Josh!

Yeah, police brutality.

Shocking. Well, thanks for watching, Ed.

Oh, can I please?

And a coffee.

Go straight through.

Is she new?

Yeah, just find out.

She looks young.

17.

What does he mean, drug dealer?

Phil's not a drug dealer.

He smokes the odd bit of weed, who doesn't?

You don't really think you tell people, do you? Tell people what?

About what happened.

Bad enough everyone at the last place know in our business, but here, with

lot, I mean, can you imagine what lethal would be like if... What?

Are you being serious right now? I just told you what sort of man we're dealing

with here and our son is going out with his daughter.

That's what we should be worrying about, not what the bloody neighbours think.

Jesus Christ.

No, feel free.

Oh, well, Fergus isn't with you, is he? Oh, no, he's given up cut lunches since

he signed up for this marathon thing of yours.

Oh, I'm just, um... stockpiling energy.

Slow release.

All right.

Roger, um... I suppose your job means you've always got people coming up to

asking... For advice on personal accusing stuff. Constantly.

Yeah.

Illness, money worries, depression, marital problems.

Yeah, constantly.

Yeah. Well, you see, a friend of mine has asked me for some, and, well, I

know what to say to him. Sometimes it's best to say nothing.

You see, her and her husband, lately, they don't seem to be able

to... No, um...

Connect. Connect.

Yeah. And she doesn't know the reason why.

And I think that's the thing that's upsetting her the most.

Because before all this, she always thought they were

soulmates.

And that shouldn't happen to soulmates, should it?

Do you know, when I was younger, 12, 13, I used to knock about with a girl

called Stacey, Stacey Burkett.

We grew up on the same street, sat next to each other at school.

And we were soulmates.

And then one day, this new boy came to our school, and he didn't know anybody,

so somehow he ended up latching on to us, which was fine at first, you know.

And then one afternoon, I was walking home.

And there they were.

Stacey and Luke.

Sitting on the swings.

Holding hands.

Our swings.

I bumped into her a few months ago. She's really fat now.

Right.

That's a real help.

Thanks for that, Roger.

You're welcome.

Perfect.

I'm heading down there now.

See you in a bit.

OK.

Right.

Let's see what this one looks like, then.

You know they're doing the upstairs ones now, don't you?

What's that in case of burglars with trampolines?

I wasn't even here when it happened, and I'm still more shaken up by it than you

are. It's not affected you in the slightest, has it? It takes more than

little scrote in a cloak to frighten me.

Thanks, though, for stopping with us, I mean.

That's right. I've got to pop out now for a couple of hours. A bit of

If the lads finish before I'm back, have them leave the bill for me, will you?

Yeah, no problem.

I see you've got Kath down on the bar roster for tonight. You going out?

Done every evening this week.

Just wanted a nothing night.

DVD and a takeaway.

Oh.

I might just nip up later on and leave some forms with you. I need signing.

Forms? You're going to say it's overkill, but I've taken out a whole new

insurance policy.

One that covers absolutely everything this time. Someone so much as scratches

bar stool out there and we're covered.

Listen, number one rule I've lived my life by, never get burned twice.

Ah, so that's why you've never remarried.

No, Pauline, that's down to rule number two.

Always be selective.

Did we match this morning's time?

Nope.

This is bloody dog owners.

They just cleaned up after the little beef. I wouldn't have had to stop for

minutes to wipe my shoes on a tree stump.

You've definitely got it all off, haven't you?

Yes, yes.

I can't believe you've still got CDs. You are so old school.

I prefer to use the same plastic.

Oh, don't worry about that. No, no, no, no, no, no.

You don't... You don't mean to say you actually buy into all this rubbish, do

you?

Why shouldn't I? I do.

This guy's really good. I've actually read a couple of his books.

Have you?

Well, I only picked that up because I was trying to convince my business

we should go and see him.

I've never seen someone laugh for so long.

I don't suppose you want to go with me, do you?

Oh, erm... Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, I'd love to.

Yeah? Oh, great.

Well, I'll show them a couple of tickets.

What sort of extras?

I don't know.

I didn't actually see anything.

Might all be quite innocent.

Yeah, and it might not be.

This new agent of yours sounds like some sort of a madam.

Yeah, she can be a bit of a madam.

No, I didn't mean that.

Look, I don't like the sound of this place at all. I really don't. Oh, don't

worry about me. I can take care of myself.

No -one's going to make me do anything I don't want to do.

Denise, two weeks ago, she nearly talked you into having plastic surgery.

Oh, yeah, I know, but I'm not now, cos I went on this website and they showed

photos of the ones that went wrong, and there's this one woman who looks like an

owl. Oh, is that funny?

Let's see if I can find... No, that's not really the point, is it? It's, um...

Lisa?

Look, can we just get back to talking about you?

What's happened?

Me and Dan, we're... We're not great.

Are they, um...

No. Have you?

No.

No, you'll set me off.

I'm just sick of it.

I'm sick of it all.

And do you know what makes the whole thing worth?

Urgh. Who?

Urgh, across the road, urgh.

Jenna?

Little Miss Perfect with her perfect world and her perfect husband and their

perfect sex life. Every time I look out the window, they're practically rutting

on the doorstep. Lisa!

Well... Sorry.

You know you can always tell me anything.

I know.

Thanks. Mummy!

What's happening?

Well, that's all I had.

Don't exactly go around with a sewing kit, you know.

Hey, did Fergus tell you about the big contract he landed today?

No. Oh, it wasn't that big. It was massive.

Oh, have you got a new suit?

It actually looks really good on you.

Why does everybody keep sounding so surprised about that?

Oh, Dan's van's outside, by the way.

What are you doing here?

I came for you.

Well, now's not a good time, cos... Your dad's going out tonight.

He's taking Molly and, um... He's headed round to me mum's for the evening. I've

just cleared it with both of them. Dad?

Point is, we've got the place to ourselves.

When was the last time we had that?

This last year and a half, all we've done is go from one drama to the next.

never stopped. We never had a minute.

Not for each other.

So tonight, it's just you and me.

No babies, no in -laws, no work talk. Just you, me, a

lovely meal and a bottle of wine.

A date night?

A date night.

Just like we used to have, remember?

Before we opened the doors and invited the rest of the world in.

What do you think?

I think it sounds lovely.

Nothing's changed.

Are you cooking?

Oh, what did you think I'd do? Order pizza?

I'm doing us me speciality. Beef stroganoff. You mean the only thing you

how to cook? Yes, me speciality.

Go and get changed.

It's, er, smart casual tonight.

I am smart casual.

Go and get changed.

I've already picked a dress out for you. It's, er, it's on the bed.

Is it the flowery one?

What exactly did you tell me, Dad, and Pauline? Oh, don't worry. I was very

subtle. I just said it'd be nice for Molly to spend some time with the two of

them together.

They haven't got a clue.

Never even questioned it.

So what's this really all about, then, eh?

They're trying to sort out their marriage?

I think so.

Well, it's about time.

Yeah.

Hello, can I have a quick... Good day, uni.

Yeah? Really?

Oh, no.

Your mate rang. I know you never went.

All right. No, I didn't. What's it got to do with you?

It's got everything to do with me.

Especially if you've been off spending it with your new pothead boyfriend.

My what?

No, you don't know where I've been or who I've been with.

Don't I?

Greg saw you both driving off this morning, so don't deny it.

Greg? I don't get it.

I just don't get it. You've always been the sensible one in this family. Now,

all of a sudden, you're out drunk every night, bunking off uni, doing God knows

what else.

I thought better of you.

You?

You thought better of me?

Ella. Fuck off, Greg.

No, no, no, no.

Oh.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You up there?

Yeah.

Oh, you're right.

Oh, you know Barry, don't you? Lisa's dad.

What's cracker -lacking?

What? What?

Crack -a -lacking.

No.

What are you doing with that?

Oh, it's a friend's birthday. I'm just going to run over and drop it off.

I've got those forms for you to sign. It's on the back page.

Here's a pen.

Can you read them first?

Who are you, me lawyer?

There you go.

Thanks.

Great.

Well, have a good evening.

Um, the veg is good. Yeah, you see, when I go all out, I really go all out.

You do, you do.

So was it, um, frozen or... Fresh.

Fresh.

Do you want a top off? Um, I'm all right at the minute, thanks.

He's just pulled up.

Let me do the talking, okay?

All right?

All right.

Where's Mum?

Still at your Auntie Wendy's. I think she's stopping over.

Either that, or she'll be ringing me, pissed as a fart, at 2am to come and

her.

Probably.

So, you and this Ella girl, is it serious?

I don't know.

What do you know about her father?

I know he's a prick.

Why?

He's actually got a bit of a reputation.

Yeah.

Yeah, so are you.

What's going on?

Listen, Finn.

Ella, she seems like a really nice girl. But, look, you've been in trouble

before, okay?

But you're 21 now, which means the days of just getting a slap on the wrist are

over. What are you on about?

What am I supposed to have done? Nothing.

But when you start mixing with the Bradley Dawsons of this world... How am

mixing with him? I don't even like the guy. Look, what I'm trying to say...

Finn, Bradley's threatened to tell everyone around here about your dad.

No, Cameron.

I know you don't think that's what matters, but I do.

You, me and Finn.

We're the only ones who get it, but everyone else doesn't matter how often

how hard you explain it.

All they're going to hear is dirty cop.

Then it's going to be just like before, and I'm not going to... Oh, this.

Again.

And that's what it always comes down to with you, innit? What people think.

Oh, and last time, it was move away, wasn't it?

So what's the solution going to be this time, then, eh? What, are you going to

start picking my girlfriends for me now, are you? Vin, I don't care what people

think. You know that. You're still telling me not to see her, though,

you? Not because of that.

No, well, I am. Jenna, will you shut up?

You know what?

Think I'll eat out.

Finn!

Finn!

What is wrong with you?

Hello?

All right, big man.

Eh?

Finn, what are you doing?

What am I doing?

I don't know what I'm doing, Bradley.

Finn! You come round my house and try to blackmail my family.

What?

You really want to back away.

Now. Dad, what have you done?

Finn, we're leaving.

Finn!

Bradley?

Oh, you... You'll never guess what my dad said the other day.

He was in the park with Molly.

What?

I thought we agreed.

No in -laws talk, no baby talk.

We've just done both in one sentence.

Wait, go on. You start a conversation.

You can't just tell someone to start a conversation.

This isn't working. No, no, no, no, no. It is.

Um, let's start again. Okay, new rules. Not working, Dan.

What happened to us?

You really want to do this out here?

Come. Come!

You think you intimidate me? I know all about you.

I know all about you. That boy has no idea how lucky he is. I didn't just

him. What? Didn't just what, eh?

Don't. Yeah, you want to listen to your missus. Good advice.

This isn't helping. You need to seriously calm down. Yeah, you do.

Sounds like you should be listening to your missus. You what?

This has got nothing to do with me, mate. So don't start giving me grief.

Great. What's happening? Nothing. Go back in. Doesn't look like nothing.

Told you what would happen if you didn't sort this. Well, do it. Go on.

Tell everyone about my dirty little secret.

Go on. Tell them what you know or what you think you know. Because I couldn't

care less. What?

Cameron!

So there's...

I've told you, I won't do anything other than what's on the paper. And I've told

you, that's all I expect.

So what happens at these parties?

What am I going to have to do?

Fergus does know that Amita thinks this is a date, doesn't he?

I thought that was you. How the devil are you?

Some of us were talking afterwards and they want to offer you a job.

She's the only reason I'm here.

Ella. Go to an opera.

Me. We'll leave at six.

I tried to fix it. You tried to pay for over the crap.

Clap my hand off. Clap yours.

Clap me.

Go to hell!
