Look.

Hey.

Hey, Pat.

Look at that.

Hey. Nice to be on the beach with you.

Hi, Pat. Look.

Yeah, I've seen it, thanks.

A million times.

No, no, this is a new one. I've just had it done.

Ah, puking.

Wait till he starts puking on you.

Ah, don't mind.

He can do what he wants.

Between the legs of two boys, you see.

What do you think?

No, it's a girl. Yeah?

Definitely. She's got her mouth open already.

I see light, eh?

I had a bit of a fright at the time, mind.

I said it wasn't moving enough, but then we had the scan, everything was fine.

Everything's OK.

Touch wood.

All right, we're just having a rest, you know, before the big push.

Anyone else want to go and go?

Yeah, must be out of a squeeze coming out, eh?

Sorry. Blackburn, my ass!

Yeah, yeah.

Useless. It wasn't Blackburn, it was Hartlepool.

Schoolboy trial, as I said.

Immediate.

It's not like I made a big thing of it or anything. Colin!

Yeah,

OK.

No, but what I mean is, you know, if you do want someone for the team... Yeah,

well, we'll keep you in mind. Right after Frieda and Gray.

No, I'm serious.

It's all leaping. But he's just playing out of his skin at the moment. You might

not get a look in.

Oh, no.

Katrina, what's wrong?

Mark's here.

Is he? Yeah, he just turned up.

Well, what's wrong? Well, look, I had to go out, haven't I, Auntie Nathan?

Listen, can you hide the lager?

Take it upstairs or something? I can't take it upstairs now, not while he's

here.

Can you tell him to come back later or something?

OK.

Hold on, no, you tell him.

Mark. Colin.

Hi, Mark.

Bit keen, aren't you?

We're not going till seven.

What's up?

Nothing much.

Did you catch the bus?

No. No, I walked.

I just felt like it.

Doesn't matter, does it? Well, no, it's just she's got a doctor's appointment,

see?

It's all right. I'll just watch TV or something.

Mark.

I'm not going to nick anything.

I'm not saying that.

I wouldn't.

Not from you.

Not from anyone, Mark.

All right, I'm going to wait outside, then. If you don't want me here, I'll

Oh, Mark, I do.

She's bothered, I'm not.

Mark? Mark, are you still there?

It's me again.

Hiya. He's gone outside to talk.

I'll do it now, though, and I'm back in when I've finished.

OK, thanks, love.

I'll see you later.

Trina, love you.

Love you, too.

I can't hold on to it much longer, Carl. You're going to have to make a decision

soon. I know.

Look, if you don't want it, there's plenty of others. I do. I've just got a

particular moment.

You mean you've got to ask your wife's permission?

How sad is that?

Desperate. Well, no, it's my decision, you know, but she's got to have a say.

Yeah, if you're decorating or if you're going to get a new Hoover, but not in

what kind of car you get.

Call that sacrosanct.

A man's car defines who he is.

This is your ultimate form of self -expression.

Absolutely.

Now, what do you want?

This?

All that.

It's not a difficult decision, is it, Kev?

Asking why he wants to get rid of it all of a sudden.

Go on, get in that bad girl.

Start her up.

See how it feels.

Feels like the back end's gone to me.

Don't listen to him. What does he know? He drives a van. He doesn't know

anything about style.

Oh,

listen to that. Sweet, eh?

Yeah, sweet.

When you want those twin calves to kick in, just stamp on the accelerator.

And tell Trina to hang on to her knickers.

Can I take her home with me tonight for a test drive? See what she says.

Ain't not as stupid as you thought, is he?

Yeah? Huh?

What do you think?

Did you buy it, then?

Not yet, no. I just bought it for the night.

See how she handles.

Right.

I thought I could take it to all the mums.

Nothing else that'll save us on the cab fare.

What about the bike?

That's OK.

It's with one of my mates, Aide.

You're still going to give it to me, though, yeah? I promised you I didn't,

I haven't told Mum yet, though, so just... OK?

Hey, we'll take her for a test drive later, when I give you a lift home.

See how fast she goes.

I've had a tonne out of her already.

You OK?

Mark?

Can I stay the night with you and Trina?

What? Please, Colin.

It ain't Colin.

Just tell him no.

He seems really upset.

He's just trying it on.

He does the same thing with me often enough.

He's got to learn to be more independent.

Exactly.

What?

Well, the council won't take him in if they think we're willing to do it.

And we're not, are we?

Can't afford it more than anything.

Not full -time, no.

So don't pretend otherwise.

It took him long enough to find this place. He's got to stick out somewhere.

And he does need full -time care.

Are you all right in there, Mark?

Do you need a hand?

No, go away. I haven't finished.

Something's upsetting him.

He sure is concerned about my feelings.

Look, I'm not buying that car.

I borrowed it to show Mark.

Doesn't help him in the long run, though, does it?

What? You keep doing this, Colin.

Making him want things he could never have.

No, I don't. Look, we're meant to be celebrating here.

Please, don't let me get any more stressed. We've had enough scares as it

Yeah, you're right.

Sorry, love.

Sorry. Ready? Somebody get the door.

I'll do it.

Oh, Mark, that's lovely.

Well done.

Happy birthday to me.

Thank you. Yeah.

Happy birthday, Mum.

Thought we would go to the pub later.

Miss you and me, yeah?

Not allowed to drink, am I?

You could have a Coke.

Here. Uncle Mark.

Say hello to your niece.

He knows she's a girl because she's got her mouth open already.

Look.

Happened to the one I bought you?

You haven't lost it already, have you?

Yeah, that's right. Lose everything, don't I?

See?

Mark, Mark, what's wrong?

What's going on?

Not girl trouble, is it?

No.

Losing your job? You'll get another one. You can go back to the supermarket.

It's boring.

My job's boring.

Do something else, then.

You've been bullied again.

Are you? No.

Because if it's that... It isn't, all right. It's not that.

Then what is it?

Why do you want to stay over at our place? Why don't you want to go back?

Because it's shit.

You're not going to solve things by running away.

You've got to face up to it. Got any more change?

Depends.

Maybe.

Might as well go, then.

I can come in with you if you want.

What for?

Make sure you're okay.

Why wouldn't I be?

Mark, I'm only trying to help.

I've got ears, you know.

Just because I can't read doesn't mean I'm deaf as well as stupid.

What? I'm not your problem, am I?

We're not full -time anyway. You don't want to help me. You just want the

council to do it.

Mark, that's not true.

Thanks for the lift, Colin.

Shame Trina won't let you keep it.

Mark. Sod off, all right? Just sod off. Just relax, okay? Calm down.

I know it must have sounded, but it's not like that.

Of course it isn't.

I can't do anything if you won't talk to me. Tell me what's wrong.

You're full of shit, Cole. That's what's wrong.

Happy now?

Holy cow.

Hiya.

Well, what's the verdict?

Are you a pussy -whipped weakling or a man of his word?

Oh, you're joking.

Look, I can drop the price if you want.

No, it's OK. I need a family car, really.

It'll be all right, Trina, whatever you say.

Tim Woodbridge.

Yeah, hi.

It's Colin Wilkes, are you?

Mark's brother.

Oh, yeah.

I wonder if I could meet you for a chat.

Yeah. Yeah, well... You'll have to be quick, I'm afraid. I've got a custody

brought forward for two.

About Mark?

Yeah. What specifically?

Well, I don't know, that's just it.

He's really upset over something, but he won't tell me what it is.

Well, he lost his job or something.

Well, that was weeks ago.

Of course you'll work. Tim speaking.

Um,

can you tell her I've left?

Yeah, yeah, all right.

Diane?

Mandy Hall, line two.

Lee?

Thanks.

Sorry, what were you saying?

Well, is, um, anyone giving him a hard time? Someone he's complained about,

or...? It's rather people he hasn't complained about.

It's a shorter list.

Um, can we walk?

Look, I've been ill for a while. I'm still trying to catch up.

There's nothing I can remember, but to be honest, I'll need to check my case

notes. Can I get back to you later in the week? Sure.

So what about your mam?

She goes to all those review meetings. She said anything?

No, I... Oh, well, check with her.

I've missed the last few, so she's probably a lot more up -to -date than I

I've really got to rush. Sorry.

Call her tomorrow.

I want to speak to her tonight.

I might have a hard time. I can't just wait till it's convenient for everyone,

can I? Yeah, bite my head. I've got a lot of things to do.

Sorry to bother you.

I'm Shane, aren't you?

Denise Will, it's me, ma 'am.

Hi,

Madge.

Madge, is me mum there?

Hi, thanks.

See ya.

don't do it you want your own car

Oh, yeah.

Sorry it's so late.

No problem.

I need to see my brother.

Mark will.

Are you Colin?

Yeah.

Lewis. Hi. Nice to meet you.

Mark's not here.

He's gone out with a couple of the others.

I told them 11, so of course they're late. Prove how hard they are.

Wait in the office if you like. We'll make you some coffee.

Talks about you a lot.

Said you was getting some flash new motor.

That's right, yeah.

Skip on Wales myself.

Still, if you're in it for the money, you don't become a nurse, right?

Sure you don't want one?

No, thanks.

All right.

One of the perks of a mouth shifter.

Brazilian blue.

Best coffee in the world.

So, what do you want to see Mark for?

There's nothing wrong with that.

Well, I don't know exactly. I thought maybe you could tell me.

How do you mean?

I think he's being bullied again.

Right.

Has he mentioned anyone in particular?

Because, to be honest...

Mark's the one we have to keep an eye on.

If he doesn't take his medication, or if he starts drinking, he can get pretty

aggressive himself.

Then what happens?

How do you handle that?

Well... We try to bribe him at first, then it's the lag iron on a rack with a

whipping, you know.

You've got his lighter.

What? That lighter.

It's Mark's.

I know, because I gave it to him.

You did?

No, of course, yeah, of course it is. You're right, yeah. No, I confiscated it

from him. He was using it to burn things in his room.

I must have just picked it up. Sorry.

He doesn't burn things.

What?

Mark.

He's scared of fire.

He cuts himself when he gets upset. He doesn't burn things. He wouldn't. He

would. I've seen it.

No, you haven't.

Are you calling me a liar?

No.

Just asking what you're doing with my brother's lighter.

shit out of me.

And here you are.

I haven't come here to do anything.

I don't want to fight. No?

I just want you to stop.

Okay, I'll stop.

Go on then, see ya.

You're shitting yourself, aren't you?

You think you're so it.

All you've done is made things worse for him.

I'll report you.

What else have I done to him?

You don't actually know, do you?

You don't know.

Shall I show you, Colin?

I'm going to go now.

I don't think so.

You're not going anywhere. You're not going anywhere.

You're not going anywhere.

You little bastard!

What time is it?

It's half eleven.

Go to sleep, love.

Are you okay?

Who is it?

Sorry, love.

I'll get it.

Alan, what?

Yeah, that's right.

DS Hughes, DC Morgan, Green ACID.

We're looking for your brother, Mark.

He's absconded from the home.

There's been a serious assault on a member of staff at Mark's home.

A Lewis Gibbons.

What, you...

You think Mac's responsible?

We don't think anything at the moment. Well, why do you want to see him?

Mr Woods, did he say it was Mac that attacked him?

Well, did he?

Well, unfortunately, Mr Gibbons is unable to help us at the moment as he's

undergoing emergency surgery.

Oh, Jesus, what did he do to him?

It wasn't him.

But, well, it wasn't. He wouldn't.

Mac's not like that.

He's not.

Look, it's late.

If you'd rather we can come back tomorrow and take a statement from you

No, no's fine.

I want to know what happened.

Why don't you go to bed, love?

No, I want to stay.

Really.

We want to help.

Can I just say, all we want to do is to talk to Mark in connection with this

incident. We spoke to his social worker, Tim Woodbridge.

So we're aware of his problems.

It's his safety and well -being we're concerned about as much as anything

Do you understand?

Yeah. Thank you.

Now, when was the last time you saw Mark?

Er, yesterday we took him over for my mum's birthday.

And how did it seem?

Er, it was fine.

Well, he was upset about something.

He didn't want to go back, said he wanted to stay with us.

Yeah, he often says that.

Where his family gets lonely.

Are you aware of any incidents at the home lately?

Has he ever mentioned any problems with Lewis?

No, never.

He does bottle things up.

Yeah, but he would have told me, though.

But he didn't, did he? He wouldn't tell any of us.

You couldn't have told him more if you'd tried.

I've told him the truth.

Oh, right.

You sounded ridiculous.

It's so obvious you were trying to protect him.

He didn't do it. He's been violent before.

Well, he didn't do this. Oh, no, he just thinks.

He wouldn't hit anyone, would he?

It's to borrow my mother.

You what?

She'll deny it, but he had this up.

She told me.

No. That's why she won't take him in.

That's why I don't want him round here. I get scared when he's around.

He wouldn't hurt you.

You don't know that.

And nor does Mark, that's the point.

I mean, one minute he's fine, and next thing you just flip, like tonight with

this Lewis.

He didn't do it.

Trina.

He didn't. It wasn't him.

Shift yourself back, boy. Let's see them cheeks wobble. Do you have to talk to

me like that?

You're not supposed to, at all.

I work just as hard with a bit of respect.

Stop it, will you?

Fed up with it.

He said he wanted to see you. I told him he couldn't, but, well, he went a bit

funny.

Are you all right?

Fine. Thanks, Chris.

Mark?

I didn't do anything.

I know.

I didn't call. I didn't touch him, I swear.

I know. I know. It's all right.

Colin, Pat's coming. Can you take him somewhere else?

No, it's OK. I need to talk to her.

Can you...

You want the police?

No. Okay, trust me. I'm not going there. I haven't done anything.

That's why we need to do this. Clear things up.

Can you ask for DS Hughes? No.

Mark, I know what I'm doing.

Trust me.

I won't let anything happen to you.

You didn't do it. I know that.

You believe me? Of course I do.

I'll get you out of this, Mark.

I promise I will.

Mark's problems mean he'll need an appropriate adult with him during the

interview. I'm really sorry.

It's OK.

I'll make up for lost time this evening. It's just he needs me.

Colin, relax.

Of course you can go with him.

If you think that's the best course of action.

It would be helpful, yes. What about his social worker?

Well, he'll assess Mark's condition beforehand, but given Mark's preference

his brother to be with him, it would minimise any undue stress.

He's pretty scared. Well, you would be, wouldn't you?

Grace, we're going to need an agency worker for this afternoon.

You take as long as you like.

Did you drink any alcohol?

He doesn't drink, Steve.

Mr Wilkes.

He's not allowed because of his medication.

You stick to that, don't you?

Yeah. Colin, you must let Mark speak for himself.

I know. If you persist, I can have you removed and have his social worker

brought in.

Do you understand?

It's OK.

Sorry, I was just trying to clarify things.

Mark, you say you were in the pub with two other residents of Drayton House.

Terry Kaler and the Julie Gibbs.

Now, we have statements from them, so I'll ask you again.

Did you drink any alcohol?

Yeah.

Not much, though, right?

Just a couple of drinks, yeah?

More than a couple, I think.

Julie Gibbs states we had about four or five pints each and some vodka Terry had

bought earlier.

Yeah, but she doesn't like Mark.

She used to go out. She's got it in for you, hasn't she?

Terry's statement said exactly the same.

They also say that you were angry with Lewis, that you said you would... you

would get him.

Yeah, I did, but... Mr Wilkes.

Didn't mean it.

Is that why you went to Lewis's office when you got back?

No.

I got my lighter.

He got the lighter, the one you gave me, he stole it.

And then what happened?

I told you, he was already lying there. You were seen standing over him holding

a fire extinguisher.

I just stood on it coming in. I just picked it up. I didn't call. I didn't

him. I think we should take a break now. Did you want to?

Mark. He's getting upset.

He's confused. Did you want to?

When you saw Lewis there, did you want to hit him? Of course I thought he did.

wanted to smash his bloody face in.

Is the psycho thing he does? That's enough.

But I never did it. I didn't tell him it weren't me, Col. It wasn't. I never.

OK.

We'll take a break there.

Interview suspended at...

12 .36pm.

I

want

him to have a solicitor in with him. I've already asked.

They're arranging it now.

Colin.

They're going to charge him.

We need to prepare him for that.

I'm sorry.

What?

Mark, you said Lewis did things.

That he was a psycho.

What did you mean by that?

Nothing. What did he do?

I didn't mean anything he was to get, that's all.

Mark, if Lewis did something, we need to know.

I promise you it'll help. He didn't.

I just said, didn't I? He was a little shit.

I'm glad he got massed. Serves him right. He didn't mean that. Look, I'm

talking about this, all right? I'm not talking about any of it now. Just sod

and leave me alone. Ma, sit down. I want to go home now, Colin.

I want to go home with you now, please.

We need him to talk about what happened.

If we can prove some sort of abuse, he'll get a reduced sentence.

What for? He didn't attack him. It wasn't Mark!

Then find me an alternative suspect.

I'm not a miracle worker.

We heard about your brother.

From Grace in the office.

Sorry, mate.

It wasn't Mark.

He didn't do anything.

Somebody else.

Mr.

Wilkes? You want to see me?

Yeah.

I need to talk to you.

In private.

Why, what is it?

It was me.

Whit Lewis.

I was there that night. I want to confess.

GBH with intent means ten years in prison.

Possibly life.

Now, do you understand that?

Yeah. Do you think your wife would? I have to say what happened.

But you can't substantiate it.

No one saw you there.

I told you. Well, tell me again.

Tell me one thing. One detail that you couldn't have learned from just talking

to Mark.

Your brother hated him.

He was drunk.

His fingerprints on the weapon. He was seen standing over him, holding the

bloody thing. And when he realised that, he ran away.

Do you see why we could have a problem here, Colin?

You love your brother a lot, don't you?

Yeah, of course.

Yeah, and we can see that.

And you got very emotional when you were with him. He was upset.

You want to protect him, which is a good impulse.

It's natural. No.

How did he?

I'm not just taking the blame for him. Why would I? Because you're not taking

the blame, are you?

There's no evidence to support what you've said, and we can't prove any of

and you know it.

You're not confessing to anything.

You're trying to undermine the case against your brother. No. To jeopardise

enough so he'll walk.

If Lewis recalls it... Oh, yes, yes.

How bloody convenient is that, eh?

If.

It's a crock of shit, Colin.

But it's on the record.

So now we have to investigate it.

You don't mind waiting here while we piss away valuable police time, do you?

Am I under arrest?

No.

You're under caution when I arrest you.

It's going to be for attempting to pervert the course of justice.

That's worth three to five years, in case your wife's interested.

Her being left as a single mum and all that.

When I said find an alternative suspect, I meant a credible one. I'm telling the

truth. Mr Wilkes, as noble sacrifices go, this is a particularly pointless

gesture. It's not a gesture.

This won't help you, brother. You're not saving him.

But I've confessed.

It's immaterial.

They've got to let him go.

He's already been charged.

No matter what you say, Mark will remain in custody now until tomorrow,

whereupon he'll be sent to the magistrate's court as arranged.

What? You can't stop the legal process if he's been charged. He's going to

trial. It's as simple as that.

I want to see him. You can't. Why not?

Because you've just made yourself a suspect in this same ongoing

However, if you retract the confession... No.

You can't see Mark unless you do.

Colin, there's nothing else to implicate you.

Just tell them you lied.

Trina?

Where's Trina?

She's upstairs, resting.

I'll have the doctor round, Colin.

She's frightened.

No, no.

Don't use this.

You can't dress her like this.

She's got to keep calm.

Is she OK?

Well, that depends, doesn't it?

You've got to have to be there for Colin.

Really.

How are you feeling?

You OK?

Who are you sorry for?

Me?

Our baby? Who?

I had to say it.

The child's name was something he didn't do.

You don't know that.

I do.

It was me, Trina.

I'm sorry.

They know it wasn't you. They told me.

Colin, why are you doing this?

It's what happened.

It isn't what happened.

It wasn't you. Just tell him the truth.

If Lewis wakes up, we'll tell him anyway.

You'll tell him it was me.

What's Mark going to say then? He's my brother.

And I'm your wife.

And this is our child.

When's he ever going to have that, eh?

I listen to him talking about when he gets married, about what he's going to

call his kids.

I sit there, smiling and playing along, knowing it's never going to happen.

No. It won't sell.

What, just because you can't have that, you don't think you're entitled to it

either? Is that it?

That you want to destroy what you've got?

No. Out of guilt.

That somehow it's not fair that you don't think you deserve it. You do,

It's not that.

It's institutionalised anyway.

It's a horrible thing to say.

But it's true.

He can't look after himself.

He'll never have a normal life. He said that himself.

So what's the difference if he's inside?

That's what you're saying.

Colin, I can't do this without you.

There's more in the pot.

Did you know?

What?

Did you know what this Lewis was like?

If it's true, you mean.

Did you know what was happening?

No. Of course I didn't. Then why didn't you?

You go to the meetings.

They're meant to be for Mark, aren't they?

So he can say what his problems are.

I asked you what was upsetting him.

He wouldn't tell me. He just sits there.

Assuming everyone wants to get at him.

Well, he's not wrong there, is he?

We try our best, Colin.

But if he won't talk... ..it's usually so petty.

Like what?

What exactly did he say at the last one?

He was angry because Lewis made him tidy his room.

I just thought, imagine that.

It's more than I could ever get him to do.

And Lewis explained what he was doing.

Well, Lewis was there at the means.

Yes, of course.

Why the hell could Mark say anything with Lewis sitting there taking notes?

It wasn't like that.

He can't twist Lewis round his little finger. That's what was upsetting him.

I thought it was what you needed, Colin.

Someone who set guidelines and expected them to be followed.

Yeah.

Depends how you do it, though, doesn't it?

Lewis was strict.

Like Dad was.

Eh?

Strict like that, you mean?

It's getting late.

I phoned for a cab.

Should be here by now.

I know you want to help him, Colin.

But Mark's problem wasn't Lewis.

He wouldn't have told you if it was.

You've already proved how much good that does.

Why do you do this?

You keep looking for someone to blame.

Well, isn't there?

It wasn't our fault, Colin.

It wasn't anyone.

We've had the police around asking about you. They said you'd confess.

Right.

Hey, look, I know how you feel about your brother and everything, but this is

serious shit, mate.

You know, they were well pissed off at you.

I bloody did it, all right.

It was me.

He's in hospital, for Christ's sake. Do you think I'm proud of that?

Cole, relax.

It's OK.

You know, you want to protect him, I'd do the same for my family, but, you

don't do it like this. I've got no choice.

What about Trina?

You've got a kid on the way. Why are you nuts?

Well, this isn't going to help him.

It's not going to help anyone.

You've got to respect him, don't you?

I mean, what a thing to do.

Ballsy, innit?

One day for my boo.

That one.

Well, if I had one, I would.

All right, Colin.

Your mum's here.

She says she wants to see you.

Be quick, eh?

Thank you.

I went to see Mark this afternoon.

He's OK.

Well, coping.

He said it's fine.

Right.

Colin, I told him what you're doing.

He wants you to stop.

He said that.

He said he'd rather stay there than have you take the blame.

Yeah, well, he would, wouldn't he?

Because he doesn't think I did it.

No -one does.

Colin, he's going to trial.

But we're found guilty.

And there's nothing you can say that could change that.

Oh, but there is.

And if Lewis wakes up, we'll confirm it.

Is it all right?

Sorry. Just wanted to see how he was.

You're a friend of his?

Yeah.

They want me to say they can turn this off.

Got a match?

He's my son.

Did you know him well?

Not really.

No.

Neither did I.

Our families.

I didn't love her, you see, his mother.

I spent all of our marriage making her pay for that.

And me. Making Louis pay.

Because Christ knows it was his fault as well, you know.

Not really.

Little taps, that's all they were.

Your father must have cussed you a few times.

Some, yeah.

my brother, though.

Him a lot.

You do.

He's always worn you like this.

No reason for it. I was just glad it wasn't me.

In the end.

They said, come up with one thing.

The police.

Tell them one thing, one detail about that night that I couldn't have got from

Mark.

Lewis was drinking a special kind of coffee.

Brazilian blue.

It was his treat for the night shift.

Offered me some when I went round.

It won't be a mad statement.

He won't know what Lewis was drinking.

He might have.

He won't.

A bit of star.

Not enough, maybe.

If I tell him that, then he'll start to believe me. No problem.

Don't. Please.

I'd like to retract what I said the other day and apologize to the police.

The confession I gave was false.

I had no part in the attack on Lewis Givens.

I'm what it was, the misguided and emotional one who wanted to help my

I'm sorry.

With no possibility of parole.

Hey, it's Trina.

You alright, love?

Hey, Tom.

Man's short tonight.

Yeah, Brita's pulled her hamstring.

You up for a game, what, eh?

Shows why aren't they pullers but missing out on all these years.
