What's this?

This is our High Lawland event.

Were you going to tell me about this?

This is the way I am, Lee.

There ain't one more bad day.

And I'm wrong, Lee.

I want you to make something for me now.

Yeah. I can't get involved with drugs. You can.

And you will.

What's with the wrapping paper?

A present from other staff.

Christmas paper?

Secret Santa.

It's June.

Come early.

Why shut the casino for only one card game? Something's going on. Go.

Please, because I'm not letting you in.

Gary, what are you doing? Shut up and count.

I'm at the casino now.

It's happening.

I want you in the casino.

Baggots. Baggots.

Show me your hands.

I'll test the ground.

I gave you someone bigger than me. That's what you said last time. Never

you someone old, didn't I? Yeah, you did. You gave me a kid who killed

in his cell. I swear that I have this sound right.

He's bigger than me.

I fucking got you.

You're under arrest on suspicion of selling Class A narcotics.

You do not have to say anything to me when you're defensive. You do not

when questioned.

Something which you later rely on in court.

Get off me!

Oh, God, Leanne, go.

Oh, fucking hell, Leanne. Oh, my God.

Leanne, go. No, go away.

I'm going to pay a multiple and a fucking variety.

To the right. To the right, please. To the right.

We should lie low. Yeah.

We can figure something out.

Yeah. Yeah.

And we're only counting money.

It's a casino. There's nothing wrong with just counting money in a casino, is

there? No.

No. We should lie low, though. You're right. Yeah, for a bit. Just for a bit.

Like, yeah. Yeah.

In the

shit of the door.

I'll throw it across the road.

Would you like a cup of tea, Matthew?

Um, no, no, thanks. No, thank you, Missy Matthew.

I was going to go upstairs and grab a few things, like clothes and that.

Oh? Yeah, we're still a bit of a weekend away.

On a Tuesday?

No, he means a short break.

Lovely.

Together? No, God, no.

Or are you?

Together, yes, but not like that, no.

Definitely not like that.

He doesn't have a girl back here in ten years, and then it's two in a week.

She wasn't his girlfriend.

I'm not his girlfriend.

Oh. Never mind, love.

New voice message.

New messages.

Where the fuck are you, Massey?

I'm having to get rid of those drugs now that everyone knows your busy mate is

sniffing around.

I found someone in Keswick in the Lake District.

I'll text you the address, and when you get there, just give them the bag.

Nothing else, alright?

And listen hard, lad.

Do not fuck this up, okay? I mean it.

Bag. Given.

Gone.

You alright?

What are you doing?

What's this?

Put the money back, Thomas.

Do you think we're going to leave him? I mean, yeah.

What's going on? Just put the money back in the bag, get your seatbelt on and

don't open your mouth.

Keswick. Who?

We've to go to Keswick. Why Keswick?

I know people there, people who can help us. Who?

People. Obviously people, Matthew. Who? People we can trust, Leanne. That's who.

Okay, Keswick.

After we pick up Nanny.

Your nan? Yes.

The hospital have rang and she's been discharged.

Mum, what's going on? Just wait here. I deserve to know. Something's happened

and I am dealing with it. But until it's sorted, we have to be out the house.

Is it the bailiff?

Something like that.

Yeah, bailiff. I wasn't going to tell you, but we just need to take a day or

to sort it, all right? Just trust me, will you?

We can't bring your mum.

My nan?

Yeah, we can't bring her either.

She's coming out of hospital and she's coming with us.

Leanne, we're being chased by the police.

As soon as they get their acts together and realise we was in that room. She is

coming with us. Can't you leave her in hospital? She's in term.

Every day more than she needs to be in there, she's going to get worse.

We're getting her, OK?

We are getting her.

It's non -negotiable. It's my car, it's my rules.

All right.

Right, then.

We get Nana, then we get Ruby.

Huh?

She's my daughter, Matthew.

Oh, I don't believe this.

We're going to have to hide like a fucking bus if this keeps up.

All right, bring them in.

Tell them to talk to us this time.

Excuse me. Who are you again?

He works with me mum, Nana.

Shannon?

He's a friend of me mum's.

My mum.

Leanne.

Remember?

Oh, more good news.

She's not there. Where?

There. The school's not there.

Thomas, where's Ruby? Why the... How should I know? Because she's playing

truant. We should probably move.

Where would she go?

Little and Ruby.

Please, not now, Nana. She'll be visiting.

Nana? She'll be visiting her mum. What?

Mum, ask Sharon.

She'll be visiting her mum for a cuddle. Sharon's dead, Nana. That's where

she'll be. You mark my words.

When things are getting you down, you go get a hug off your mum.

Somerton.

How long have you been coming here?

And how long have you been forging letters and emails to the school from

If I find out it's been... It's a bit bunkingly. It's not a biggie, is it?

It might not be a big deal when your daughter runs away from school, but I

my kids.

Ruby! Wait.

Ruby, when did this lying start?

Tell me.

It started around the time this family started cracking up.

Where's the nearest town?

Scotland. I'm serious.

So am I.

Do you know how to change it? I don't even know if I've got a spare.

Oh, for God's sake, Leanne. Well, you haven't even got a car, so shut up.

How much longer are they going to be?

We're in the middle of nowhere. It's going to take them forever.

We're going to have a breakdown waiting for the breakdown people.

I'll walk.

What?

We're in Cumbria.

We could take mum.

And the way you're going, we're going to run out of food.

It's not a desert island, Lee. We're just parked in a flipping lay -by.

I can't believe I messed it all up so badly.

It's just a flat tyre.

I'm not talking about the tyre.

I'm talking about everything from start to finish.

Oh, well... We genuinely thought it was going to be a... Just a high roller

game.

I don't think you should beat yourself up.

I shouldn't have beaten you up.

No, I'm talking about them.

I messed it all up for them.

Lifed a lot. Just messed it up.

Ah.

They're all right.

I'm sorry for what I said in the cemetery.

No, I really am.

Yeah, okay.

Were you really going to go to Tenerife with Gary?

Probably not.

Another thing I messed up.

Why's it always so hard?

It's like we're addicted to being in the shit.

Drama.

Drama. I'd love a quiet life, me.

No, you wouldn't. I would.

Honest. Nice nine -to -five, enough money coming in.

Do you come through that?

I wasn't getting a nine -to -five in Tenerife.

I was getting a pool, money, sun, sand, good schools.

Fairytale.

People like me and you don't get fairytales, Lee.

I did.

Once.

Don't just leave me hanging.

Chris, my husband.

The one who died?

You never get over it.

No.

You never even get used to it, you know?

Gary was just another fella who pretended to be something that he

Promised me something that he couldn't give me.

My life's been full of them since Chris went.

Mistake after mistake.

There's only you.

What?

You're the only man alive who's ever told me the truth.

Bloody hell.

If you're holding me up as a great example of manhood, then things are

than I thought.

I'm sorry that I let you down, Gary.

It's been a proper mess.

I mean, I am still sort of a mess, but... until recently, I...

I've not been good.

You seemed OK.

Yeah, and that's the secret right there.

Them poor kids stuck with me.

Bollocks, Leanne.

Now I've let them down, time after time, and now I'm stuck in a lay -by on the

run from the police.

I'll grant you it's not Mum of the Year stuff, but... but they love you.

What makes it worse?

No, mate.

Take it from me.

Not loving you.

That makes it worse.

I've always been rubbish as a dad, I have.

I know.

You could at least pretend.

Flipping heck.

I'm trying to match up to you, open up your heart. You're just taking the piss.

Listen, we'll find a way through this.

Me and you.

We'll stick together, figure out a story.

Find a way.

You're my best mate, babe.

I'm your only mate.

Yeah, you are, but still.

You're my best mate, too.

All right, move your arm now, you're with her. I'm sick, all right.

Finally. He's probably a serial killer.

Shut up.

Oh, no.

No, no, no, no.

Say nothing.

Mum, what's going on? Nothing, darling. It's okay.

Everything's fine. What's up?

Nothing, Thomas.

Problem? A flat tire.

I've rang recovery and we're just waiting for them to come.

We'll be sitting here all night.

Have you got a spare?

Erm... Come on, get your coat. Let's have a look.

We'll be OK.

Fine, thank you.

Pop your boot.

See if we can find it.

What are you doing?

Everyone should know how to change a tire.

Yeah, absolutely.

Yep.

Have you got a coat? You're going to be freezing.

No, sorry.

Here you go.

Pop the cap there.

How about the math?

Holiday, is it?

Short break.

And it's up to a flyer.

Only way it's up, that's the best, don't you worry.

Christmas? Um, late presents.

Your scouse.

And?

Are you trying to run away as well, Scouse?

Please, please, look, my kids are in the car.

Yeah, not for long. There's nothing to do with me.

I'm sorry, Leon.

You put drugs in my car.

Come on.

You put drugs in the car with me and my kids. I didn't know they were coming.

I couldn't leave them in my mum's, Leon. I couldn't. Mum, what's going on?

You stay with Ruby. Do you hear me? No! You don't have to say anything, but it

may harm your defense.

Stay with Ruby, OK?

I promise, I promise.

Don't let them separate you.

It's all right. It's all right.

I've got you, my loves.

Your life seems to be getting worse and worse.

Flat tire, bag of drugs, load of cash.

And now... Control room are telling me you two are on the run from Liverpool.

So you're going back there tonight?

No spoken comments.

That concludes the interview.

Time's at 10 .15.

The same day it commenced.

It's harder than it looks, you know.

Get in the cell!

How do you sleep?

Like a baby.

No, you don't.

An innocent boy died in a cell like this because of you. No, he wasn't innocent.

He didn't do what he was in prison for. You said since the prison... You made me

lock him up.

Yeah, I suppose I did, yeah.

But the thing is, right, when that cell door closed, yeah, I bet you're a pal

and you weren't thinking about me.

So the question is, how do you sleep?

My name is Detective Sergeant Fen Ming. The time is 11 .45 on the 10th. My son,

Gary Packer, is a drug dealer.

A thief.

And a violent man.

And he needs help.

Are you going to write that down?

Okay, that one's good.

Lee! Don't talk to her. Excuse me, mate. I can explain, Lee.

I can explain.

Just hang on.

So you don't understand these conditions?

Yeah. Wait for me outside and I'll explain.

She'll be waiting a long time.

She got bailed. He didn't.

Why, I've never been in trouble before.

You tried to have scones from the officers in Cumbria. You had a passport

your bag and you had £31 ,273 in a carrier bag along with two kilos of

So be on the mantel of your trial and park it out on that bench till I'm ready

to take away.

Don't ask me for help. I did everything you asked me to do.

Everything. Everything.

And now I've lost everything.

You've made it, Beth.

The bed.

Who was here to cross me off?

I didn't.

I didn't. I swear... Oh, yeah, lad, yeah.

Chattin's a nigger to do on them five minutes later, she's banging it in. I

swear it aren't very... You're going down,

lad. Mr Platter, like to join us?

Your bail conditions?

You are required to attend this police station at 1 ,600 hours on Tuesday the

19th, at which time you may be charged the offences outlined earlier to you.

Failure to attend will result in the issuing of a warrant for your arrest.

Further to that, the following... It's been difficult, mate.

The following bail conditions have also been applied.

You are not to contact directly or indirectly a prosecution witness named

Packer. Witness?

Or enter one whole bank avenue in the city of Liverpool.

My mum,

Nancy Packer. Do you understand these conditions?

It's fine here, here and here.

Told you it wasn't me. Shut the fuck up.

Yeah, grump, do you like me?

Nothing from your daughter, lad? No.

Hey, close that door, will you?

Yeah, try it again.

Maybe she'll answer this time.

Cup of soup.

This one's on me.

Go on.

That's right.

Cheers.

Sorry, Mum.

Good for a few.

Oh, thank you.

I know you and your grandmother were very close.

Especially after the death of your mother.

I didn't know you knew.

I also know what it's like to lose someone very close.

I wanted you to know I'm thinking of you.

Thank you.

It's good to see so many people.

I wasn't expecting you.

No, well, you're innocent until proven guilty.

I hope you are innocent.

He's a good lad.

He really is.

Thoughtful.

I'm so proud of him.

I miss you both.

You and Matthew.

And the casino misses you.

I'm sorry about what Gary did.

It's not your fault. It is.

I think.

I think it is.

My husband wasn't the best.

And I didn't... It's not your fault.

Do you mind if I sit down?

I won't. You know, if you don't, you don't want me to sit down. I won't.

I mean,

I won't.

I won't sit down.

You know what I mean?

Sorry about your nan.

Is she all right, you know, at the end?

She was in her home.

Shit.

But she was happy, I think.

Couple of last words.

Your mum was just there?

Yeah, I don't know, I just saw her leaving there, yeah.

You avoiding her because of your bail?

No, I'm avoiding her because she hates me.

I'm not on bail.

They had to fuck all on me.

There was no drugs, it was just cash.

Busy's couldn't say that that didn't come from me business.

Bastard's notified the taxman now, so we've got to go kicking off him.

Plus, someone who was there that night took a little something for themselves,

you know what I mean?

It was probably one of them Busy's, wasn't it?

Right?

Got to pay for them donuts.

I wanted to speak to you, right?

I didn't want to turn up at your house because that could look bad for you, you

know, down the line.

But I had to come.

I wanted to know if we were still out.

I think.

Did you say this?

Yeah.

No.

No.

There was pressure and I was scared, right?

But it's not me.

No, it was you.

I knew it was you.

And I don't want that. I don't want that.

You.

In my life or my kids' lives.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for the way...

It was, and the way I spoke to you, right?

Sorry.

I'm important to you.

What do you call your... Gary, I'm not going.

I called you a kid. No, Gary, this is about me.

It's me.

to believe.

I'm sorry I've not been able to speak to you about the case in person, but your

solicitor, Mr.

Hughes... Mr. Hughes.

What did I say?

Mr. Well, she brought me up to speed in your position and let your plea

remain... Not guilty.

Not guilty?

Despite the prosecution's weight of evidence?

Yes. And what I said about the reduced sentence?

Yeah.

I can't have my kids thinking I'm a liar.

Changing your plea to guilty will allow a judge to pass a more lenient sentence.

It's killing me.

Prison's killing me. I can't stay there.

Just not guilty.

Do you know what, Matty?

I'd rather you didn't talk to me.

All rise.

An amount of cash, namely £31 ,273.

which it has been established was stolen from their place of employment, the

Envoy Casino.

In addition to the cash, there was two kilos of pure cocaine with a street

of £200 ,000.

Both of these items were found in the fiat multiplier, along with Mr Flynn's

passport and travel bags for the entire group.

Therefore, it is the Crown's case that Mr Flynn and Miss Chappell engaged in a

county lines operation.

operating between Liverpool and Northern Cumbria, and that as a result of the

raid by the police on the casino, they had decided to steal a large amount of

cash to assist in their attempt to evade justice.

Everything is stacked against you, Matthew.

You have to consider changing your plea to guilty.

Otherwise, the jury will have no choice but to give it to you both.

I've somewhat got what I'm in into.

What are you listening to?

Joy Division.

Nobody adds it, then?

They're old.

All right.

How's it going?

I'm listening to Joy Division.

Bad.

Things are going bad.

I forget that.

I'm sorry your dad's in prison.

He was nice to me.

And I liked him.

So did I.

I think he's a good person.

And so is my mum.

They had a bag of game and a load of cash in the car.

But you're still here.

Me mum made me come.

Having heard the case both for and against Miss Chappell, and knowing that

does not deny that drugs and cash were found in her vehicle, and that she was

fleeing the city of Liverpool for other reasons that are not this Court's

concern, your job is to study the evidence and the evidence alone.

It is clear that your decision will not be an easy one in the case of Miss

Chappell.

Her personal circumstances of being a single parent of two school -aged

children, whilst tragic and difficult, should not be used as a reason for

leniency or an acquittal if you believe her guilty.

Mr Flynn, meanwhile, presents a different proposition altogether.

Mr Flynn readily accepts that he is a man who succumbs to his addictions,

Drink. Gambling.

But you must try to ignore his failings and try to study the evidence in

this case and this case alone.

Both defendants, if found guilty, will be facing...

It was me.

Pardon me?

Erm... It was me. I did it all.

Just telling the truth.

She didn't know about the drugs or the money. It was me.

I did it all. I'm guilty.

I'm the guilty one. I go guilty.

Sorry.

That's just how it is.

I'm sorry, mate, really. I'm sorry.

Sorry.

Yeah, I didn't know... I did it.

It was me, and today's the day to say that.

I'm guilty.

I did it.

I did it.

Are you saying Miss Chappell had nothing to do with these crimes?

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. She didn't know anything about them. I put the

banks in the car.

Um, she didn't have a clone.

Sorry, mate.

Miss Cargill, what is the Crown's position?

In light of this development, the Crown offers no evidence against Miss

Chappell.

Miss Chappell?

You're free to leave the dock.

Go on then.

to sentencing in this matter, I'm informed by Mr Flynn's counsel that his

has written a letter that she would like read to the court on his behalf as part

of his mitigation.

No. No.

No, please.

I'm going to allow it in the light of Mr Flynn's guilty plea.

Matthew was a good boy as a child.

He worked hard at school and did well up until the age of nine years

old when the events changed his life and, I believe, led to this day

and him appearing before your honour occurred.

Matthew's older brother, my son Daniel,

Drowned.

Age 17.

On Saturday, the 12th of June, 1990.

And Matthew, my Matthew, has never been able

to move on.

Massey and Daniel were playing with a group of friends in Hotspur.

And boys being boys, hijinks ensued.

Hijinks resulted in Daniel jumping into the dark to rescue his

brother, who he believed, wrongly, to be

drowning.

It was a joke.

A practical joke.

Someone told Matthew to pretend to be drowning so that Daniel

would jump in to save him.

My Daniel drowned trying to save a little brother who

didn't need saving.

A joke killed my son.

A joke that changed that little boy.

Matthew blamed himself then.

And Matthew blames himself now.

He can't move on.

His clothes, his music, his bedroom.

Oh, Daniel.

Matthew is a good boy.

He is a good boy.

I ask the court, please don't send my good boy away again.

Thank you, Mrs Flynn.

The court will adjourn for a short recall.

Just when I think I'm winning When I've broken every

door The ghost of my life The wilder than before

Just when I thought I could not be

stopped When my chance came to be king The ghost of my life The

wilder

Car trouble.

Where's your mum?

I didn't call my mum.

Hi. You all right?

Yeah. I love one, yeah. Thank you.

Cheers.

You all right?

I've been all right.

I'm sorry I didn't come sooner.

I don't know what to say. No, mate, don't say nothing.

Have

you

had the new cure, Albin? No, I haven't.

Tell me about it, please. Tell me everything.

It's really good. You're going to love it.

Our group of dears in the bin.

I'm glad you got a place.

Thanks.

I mean, it's not ours, but it'll be fine until we get through with it, you know?

It'll be better than hell.

I'm not joking.

I'm glad for you.

Okay, everyone, that's your lock.

Look, I will pay you back one day for everything that you've done for us.

Yeah, I need to.

Leon told me what you did.

And, um... I think you're a hero.

See you soon, and I'll write every few days.

I love you.

I'm going to buy an hour on your phone, please.

I'm going to make a call for an hour, lad.

I don't want to listen to something.

Box of cup of soup and a one bar, yeah? Yeah, son.

Yeah.

That's all right, thank you.

can play this but assuming you can I've recorded the new cure album for you

and some other new stuff I think you might like plus some old stuff I

know you love anyway I love you dad and I'm proud of you

enjoy

Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick.

The one that makes me scream, she said.

The one that makes me laugh, she said.

Do her arms around my neck.

Show me how you do it.

So won't you ever know that I'm in love with you, that I'm in love

with you.

You're just like a dream.

You're just like a dream.

Thank you.
