Subtitles generated by - LustyCinema.li I went to see Tracy last night.

You did what?

She said you'd had sex twice.

Did you sleep with Peter?

I went.

See ya.

I'm pregnant.

I got the results yesterday.

You spoke to Clive this afternoon.

Oh, yeah?

He's got a video he wants you to have a look at.

I love sex.

I always have.

I suppose it's when I feel most alive.

I feel less stressed, more confident,

and much, much more attractive.

of my hair, my skin.

I'm a nice person when I'm having regular sex.

That's all there is to it.

So the answer is yes, it is vitally important to me,

like breathing is.

In fact, it's the reason I became a sex therapist.

So the fact that Paul is now impotent.

I wouldn't say he was impotent yet.

It's only happened once.

Yeah, but you know as well as I do.

It's the beginning.

And you know as well as I do.

It can be sorted.

If he wants it to be.

I'm sure he does.

He's just going through a tough time at the minute

with the investigation and everything.

I know that.

And I know that you know.

But sometimes you just need to hear it said.

And I also know that there are 314 ways of satisfying a woman

without using the penis.

But it's one thing sat where you are right now

and another sat here.

I am full of resentment, Gavin.

I have to be honest.

I actually feel like he's doing it on purpose.

Oh, come on.

Yeah, to punish me for something.

I don't know what.

My rational, intellectual head tells me

that no man would deliberately want to lose his erection.

I mean, vibrations and masturbation are all very well,

but they're a poor substitute, Gavin.

Take it from me.

I'm sorry, but I've been waiting out there

for nearly an hour now.

Oh my god, I'm so sorry.

What time is it?

You see, I can't even function properly.

And I left three messages on your answer machine.

You never got back to me.

Yeah, well, things have been a bit difficult.

Things are difficult for me as well.

That's what I'm paying you for, to sort them out.

You can't set tasks and not be there for us.

I have to be able to speak to you.

I've said I'm sorry.

Well, sorry's not good enough.

Well, what the hell do you expect me to do?

I'm just a human being.

I have a life as well and props up to my own.

Hey, hey, hey, I didn't want to upset you.

Are you all right, Alana?

I'm sorry.

What can I say?

I didn't mean to.

Oh, God.

I'm really sorry.

Bad dream?

A dream?

I'm not sure it was bad.

What was that about?

You don't want to know.

I think he's been seeing somebody he met in the nightclub.

Well, he's just going to have to stop.

He's got to make a go of it with Philippa now for the baby's sake.

You're going to have to say something to him.

Well, he won't listen to me.

It'd be better if it came from you.

Just tell him the truth.

Tell him Ed's upsetting you.

I will.

And I'll split them up at work.

I'll send her over to Harrogate.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

Boy, it'll be so lovely to have a baby in the family again.

They'll have to get married.

Let's just concentrate on getting them back together first.

So what went wrong in the hotel, Hazel?

Oh, I don't want to talk about it.

I just want to have me breakfast.

I'm seeing a loner this afternoon.

Don't want to start raking it all up now and getting upset.

What's up?

Couldn't you sleep?

Decorators were here at 8 o'clock.

Flats upside down.

They're steaming the paper off, and it's

all going on Morris's chest.

Oh, hello, love.

Have you had some breakfast?

Morris made me some porridge, but I

couldn't get it the treacle.

I brought me slippers, but Morris forgot his.

I told him I thought you'd find him some to borrow.

Hey, the pond looks a bit higher this morning.

Does it?

I thought the herons were back, but Morris said they were fake.

Is that bacon?

Oh, it smells lovely, doesn't it?

You should have asked me first.

I'm sorry.

I just acted on impulse.

Yeah, well, it's a really stupid thing to do.

What have we gained by it?

We can't be blackmailed, that's what.

There's no way Peter will give him the manager's job now.

What you're really angry about, though,

is him seeing you having sex with me, isn't it?

I don't want anybody seeing me having sex with you.

It's private.

But he's your ex-lover.

He's my boss.

Did he come on to you, or did you come on to him?

Mum, can I have a packet of Chris?

Yes, look, just wind the window up.

Look, my relationship with Peter is history.

It's long gone.

Who finished it, him or you?

What does it matter?

What do you want to know for?

I'm just curious, that's all.

I finished it.

and he found out he had no intention of leaving his wife.

He would have just sacked me.

He's not gonna sack you. He'd be too frightened to go running to his wife.

He wouldn't do that.

Anyway, from what I've heard of her, she wouldn't be bothered.

Really? Yeah.

She was happy as long as the money kept coming in.

How do you know that? Have you ever asked her?

No, it doesn't matter.

It's not gonna introduce me to her, is it?

Uh, pump number seven and a packet of red and salted crisps, please.

In the two and a half years I went out with him,

I never even knew where he lived.

I just had his mobile phone number, that's it.

Who's that?

It's Philippa, my ex.

What's she ringing for?

No idea.

Why don't you talk to her and find out?

I know what she wants.

What's that, then?

She wants me back.

That's why I don't take her calls.

I won't do it to you.

You're not going to get the chance.

I'm not going to be able to look him in the face now.

No need to see that tape.

Yeah, you are.

You're going to look him straight in the eye

and say you want Clive's job?

Yeah, but he'll say it.

You don't realize, do you?

Realize what?

You've got all the power.

Yeah, everybody's coming.

About 40 or 50, I don't know.

Bring your CDs.

Have you got your swim costume?

It's in my bag.

And the doll.

I'm sorry I frightened you last night.

It's OK.

I didn't realise you were in Fiona's room.

You better get going, you know, it's 10.

We're just leaving.

Have you heard of Echinacea?

Be careful, give me a kiss.

Well, she is a slut.

Remember to eat both pieces of fruit.

Well, she's been around the block a couple of times.

Don't say things like that.

Bye, everybody.

When he's finished, I'm waiting to make an important call.

Yeah, I'm good off to go.

All right, I'll see you tomorrow night.

42 minutes, heart rate 102.

It's all yours.

I think we might need a few ground rules for this party.

Happy birthday.

Yeah, I'd like to speak to a car driver.

Have you opened your card?

Paul Andrews.

What time do you think he'll be out of his meeting?

I'll call back later, then.

Aw, cheers, Mum.

Can I have a car if I pass?

Depends how many times you have to take your test.

Well, it won't be six.

I only failed on my three-point turn the last time.

Can you get that, Paul?

Your leg's broken.

It's my son's birthday.

Cheers, Mum.

Was that a rave, then? Did I do good?

Yeah, you did good.

There's just one thing I wanted to ask you.

Why do I get this sinking feeling?

It's nothing. It's about tomorrow night.

It's just, what time are you going to be back?

I don't want the house wrecking, Kieran.

I'm not going to wreck it. I just...

And I do not want any drugs in this house.

Do you hear?

I mean it, not even dope.

And keep the noise down.

I've given the neighbors my mobile number.

Oh, so you're staying over then?

I haven't decided yet.

But if you let me down, that's the last time.

I won't.

I promise.

Alona, I've got to go down the police station.

What for?

Breach of bail.

What bail?

Nobody ever mentioned bail.

One of the conditions of police bail

is that you mustn't contact the witness directly or indirectly.

What witness?

You went to Tracy's house.

So that's breach of bail.

It's intimidating the witness.

Sir, I'm not getting this.

Paul, you said there was going to be an investigation at work.

You never mentioned anything about a police investigation.

What's he accused of?

Indecent assault on a female under the age of 16.

She's trying to get back at me because I let her go.

It's her way. If she can't have me, she'll hurt me.

Why not?

She's got nothing, so what's she got to lose?

If I'd known you were on bail, I wouldn't have gone there.

I didn't want to tell you because I

didn't want to alarm you.

I thought it would all just blow over.

Oh, my god.

I just wanted to hear what she had to say, that's all.

I swear, Paul didn't know anything about it.

You might need to change your clothes.

Well, you're not going to keep him in, are you?

I'm not sure yet.

Depends on the DI.

He may be up for the magistrates in the morning.

This is bloody ridiculous.

You're making a big deal over absolutely nothing.

All I said to her.

Alona, will you shut up?

You've caused enough trouble.

Come on, let's go.

I can still have my party though, can't I?

I only went there because I thought I could resolve it.

You made matters a thousand times worse.

If it goes to court, they'll use that.

Sounds like they've got a pretty good case.

They haven't finished their investigation.

Well, it sounded like they had to me.

Intelligence has told us that she hasn't done

this sort of thing before.

I thought you said she was a compulsive liar.

I said she got a problem with drink

and her mother's a registered schizophrenic.

You definitely said she was a liar.

For God's sake, I've said so many things.

I can't remember what I've said to her anymore.

You don't need to remember the truth.

Alana, if you can't support me through this,

Maybe we should just call it a day.

Oh, that's nice.

That's bloody lovely.

I've cancelled all my clients this morning.

I've spent the last two hours in there pleading for you,

telling that sour-faced bitch how it was all my fault,

trying to sort it all out.

But that's not support, no.

What do you want from me, Simon?

How many times have you betrayed my mother?

I haven't betrayed her.

How many?

I don't know.

More than once?

I don't know.

A few. But none of them ever mattered.

Did Georgia matter?

Yeah, of course she did. That's why you bad-mouthed her to me.

Must've scared the shit out of you, thinking we might get it together.

Is it all right to start?

Yeah, start.

So does Mum know you're unfaithful?

I've always been discreet.

You know something? I respected you.

You were the man that cared for us all.

I still do.

Well, now I don't know who you are.

That's right. There are lots of things you don't know.

Things about me and your mother that we get from you,

so that you don't get hurt.

It might interest you to know we're seeing the therapist at the morgue.

Oh, well, I see. That makes everything all right, then, does it?

No, things are not all right.

Just like things were you and Philippa are not all right.

But unlike you, I didn't walk away from the problem.

You're not even watching me, are you?

Is this the only part of your carrying on?

You know, I had to catch two buses to come here.

How old are you?

I don't think so.

I am!

Have you got your birth certificate or driving licence, will you?

No, I didn't say anything about that.

Then I'm sorry, I can't.

Oh, no, you're not. You're a bloody wanker.

She's right.

Yeah, maybe she is.

I'll see you at the rest of the year, the later this afternoon, OK?

Go for a walk or something.

I don't want Georgia to know I'm your son.

Why not? She's gonna find out sooner or later.

I'm gonna tell her in my own time.

Leave her alone, Simon.

Why? Cos you want to shag her.

Have you thought of getting blind drunk?

Last time I did that, I threw up all over his new seat.

No. I've got to sort myself out.

I think that therapist knows what she's doing, at least I hope she does.

Oh, she knows her stuff all right.

Hey, have you tried that chocolate body pain yet?

Oh, it's lovely when you lick it off.

Mind you, if you do it at night, you can get terrible indigestion.

Oh, there's Simon coming.

He's moved back home.

Him and Philip have split up.

Thank God for that. She's a snotty little cow.

Well, she is.

She always gives me filthy looks.

And she doesn't make him happy.

He was always laughing and smiling before he met her.

Hello, love.

Come and give your nana a kiss.

Hiya, nana.

Where have you been?

I had some bits and pieces to be at the club.

Did your dad say what time he'd be home?

Has he found anybody yet?

Tell him I'll come and work in that bar for him.

No, he was still meeting people when I left.

Tree, would you mind making us a cuppa?

Give us a hand up, love.

I'm glad you've ditched old Atchaface.

So where were you last night with your new woman?

I don't believe that, man.

Her name's Georgia.

I'm not really interested in what she's called.

Your father says she's not a very nice person.

Yeah, he would say that.

Well, what sort of girl is it that sleeps with someone

when they've only known them two minutes?

I knew the first second I saw her that I loved her.

Oh, for heaven's sake, Simon, grow up.

You knew the first second you saw her that you fancied her.

It's more than that.

Yes, well, does she know your girlfriend's pregnant?

No, because I don't think it's true.

Don't you think it's a bit convenient?

We finish, she's pregnant.

She wouldn't lie about something so important.

That I'm upset, Simon, your father's upset.

What does this woman do?

Is she a waitress or what?

She practically runs that nightclub.

She's one of these women who could do

anything she turned her hand to.

She's modest, you know?

She works full time, and she's got this little boy.

She's funny, she's interesting.

If you met her, you'd know why I like her so much.

So what's going to happen to Philippa?

I was 14.

I know it's young, but I was always much older than my years.

I had to be being the eldest of five.

His name was Peter Layton.

And he had floppy blonde hair and terrible acne,

but he was gorgeous.

He went to the boys' grammar school.

I used to watch him through the railings.

We were laying on a load of rubble in this derelict building,

And I could see the sky through the rafters.

And I remember him pushing and me trying

to stop my legs from shaking.

I thought it was never going to go in.

It didn't put you off then?

No, it was exciting.

I couldn't wait to do it again.

Paul, how old were you when you lost your virginity?

I was about 19.

It was just before I went to university.

Can you tell me about it?

Would you prefer a loner to leave the room?

Honestly, Paul, you've told me about Nancy a million times.

It seems strange in front of... No, it's OK.

I'd been going out with Nancy for a couple of months,

and we used to babysit for her Auntie Mary every Friday night.

On this particular night, she was upset

cos I was leaving for Glasgow that Monday.

She said once I got to university that I'd meet somebody else.

And she was crying.

And I was crying and...

Before I knew it, between our legs and...

Well, she was right. I did meet somebody else at university.

No, I meant the sex. Was it good?

Sort of.

She was quite experienced.

And I was very nervous.

I spent a couple of minutes trying to put it in the wrong place.

But she saw it out.

You never told me that.

I soon got the hang of it. I did very well at university.

Graduated with distinctions. Good for you.

Look, are you sure you want to go home with us?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I feel like I'm in this room, we're two therapists, and at the end of it I'm gonna be getting

marks out of ten.

That's because you are in the room with two therapists.

No he's not. I'm not a therapist now. I'm a partner in a sexually dysfunctional relationship.

Yeah, and guess who's the sexually dysfunctional one?

I think sexually dysfunctional's a bit strong, and it's hardly ever just one person's fault.

I've told him that.

Now, I know you're going through a difficult patch at work, do you think that's affecting

Paul, answer her.

To be honest, it had started before that.

Alona took me away to Scotland for my birthday last year.

Oh, yeah, I forgot about that. Can I finish?

It was supposed to be a romantic weekend, but I just...

How can I put it? I couldn't get in the mood.

I think Alona was pissed off with me.

No, I wasn't. I enjoyed the break. You were pissed off.

OK, I was.

I'd gone to a lot of trouble organising everything,

getting a sitter for Fiona and sorting Kieran out,

and, you know, I'd had my hair done and my legs waxed

and bought new underwear.

So why do you think you couldn't get in the mood, Paul?

I don't know.

I think the problem was,

Alona never asked me for what it'd a good...

Oh, for God's sake, it was supposed to be a surprise.

No, it's what you do, Alona. You hardly ever ask me about anything.

What? That is utter crap, Paul, and you know it.

You decided where we were gonna live.

You said you liked the house.

Yeah, I do, but you bought it with Graham.

I feel like I'm sleeping in his bed.

We bought a new bed.

You know what I mean.

You decide when we're going on holiday,

where we're going on a weekend, if we're staying in, if we're going out.

You decide if we're gonna have a child, and then you decide we're gonna have an old pair.

You were dilly-dallying about changing your mind, and I was in my thirties.

Are you saying you didn't want Fiona?

No, I'm not saying that.

And we'll sell the house if you don't like it.

Well, there you go. There's another decision you just made. You make all the bloody decisions.

Except for sex. You get to decide when that happens, right?

I wanted a baby for you. I already had a child.

Yeah, and God forbid I should say anything to your child.

Because you can't say a bloody civil word to him, that's why.

What do you think it's like for him?

He lost his father when he was 10 and then some other man moves into the house.

That is exactly it. I am some other man.

I'll always be some other man other than Graham.

Graham's dead.

Isn't he the lucky one?

Dying from cancer at 38 is not lucky.

And watching your ten-year-old son watch his father die is horrific, believe me.

It's not Paul's fault, though, alone.

I'm not saying it is. I've never brought it up before.

Well, perhaps you should.

Not being able to do anything about it, I just...I just felt helpless.

I know they've both been through a tough time.

And I've never lost anyone close to me, so I can only imagine what it must be like.

But it's nine years ago.

You've no idea, have you?

Look, I am sorry Graham died. I am, really.

And believe it or not, I do actually like Kieran.

And I'd love nothing better than to be part of his life, but I'm not allowed.

If I say anything to him or chastise him, I get the foul look.

And he does need some structure in his life.

I'm actually good with young people, if we can...

Yeah, we all know how good you are.

I can't do this.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that.

From the word go, she has never believed me or supported me over this.

That's not true. It is true, Alona.

Even before the accusation, when I told you she was waiting for me after the meeting,

you asked me if I'd had sex with her.

I thought that's what you were trying to tell me. You're lying.

And you told me you did want to have sex with her.

I never said that. You did. You said you responded.

To a kiss, that's all.

You responded.

You forget I've seen the girl.

You wanted sex with her. I know you did.

Maybe for a second I thought about...

But wanting and doing something about it are two completely different things.

Not in my book.

You can't control what goes through your mind.

Yeah, but you have to control yours.

You're in a position of responsibility.

Don't tell me what I already know.

Yes, I work with young people.

Yeah, and if you ever ask yourself why.

Excuse me?

Look, I think this is developing into a slagging match.

We'll leave it there for today.

Meanwhile, I'd like to give you both a couple of tasks to do, okay?

Okay. Now, Alona, I know you've seen these sets of questions many times,

but I want you to answer them in as open and honest ways you can.

There's no point in doing it otherwise, is there?

And one for you, Paul.

It'd be good for you to start tonight,

cos we've covered a lot of grand and feelings are a bit raw.

This is a questionnaire for controlling women.

It's more general than that. No, but that's what we use it for.

Alona. I'm not controlling.

Yes, I make decisions, because somebody has to.

Paul is incapable of making a decision.

Do you let Alona make all the decisions, Paul?

It's more than that. He expects me to make them.

That is completely unoptimistic.

It's interesting, isn't it?

The first time you had sex with... Was it Nancy?

She sorted it out for you?

It's just something for you to think about.

Alona, you asked Paul why you work with young people.

I'd like you to think about why you're a sex therapist.

I had an appointment this afternoon, but it was cancelled, so...

Thought I'd take Gladys for a bit of fresh air instead.

I was hoping I might see you.

Have you spoken to Simon?

No, haven't heard a thing.

Well, he said he might ring you.

Does he know I'm pregnant?

I told him.

How many weeks are you?

I'm not sure.

I'll go for a scan next week.

I'll come with you if you like.

Thanks, that'd be lovely.

I want you to know, Philippa, whatever

happens between you and Simon, we'll always

be there for you and the baby.

I can't do it on my own.

You don't have to.

You can't be there all the time.

We can, and this fling with this woman will fizzle out.

What woman?

What's he said?

He hasn't said anything.

How do you know about her, then?

Oh, I wish I hadn't said anything now.

Sorry, Hazel.

I need to know.

I feel as though I'm going mad.

She's not a nice person.

Who told you that?

It doesn't matter who.

I don't really know anything.

But if he is seeing someone, it'll just be a fling

before he settles down, that's all.

I think Sarah getting married's unnerved him.

I think he realises he's got to make

some sort of commitment to you.

That's all it is.

If you're not back together in a couple of months,

I'd be very surprised.

But what if we're not, and then it's too late for me

to do anything about the baby?

Before Peter's appointment.

I didn't know Peter had an appointment.

Oh, it's just to get his take on things,

how things are progressing from his perspective.

It helps to fill in the way to picture for me.

I think I'd like my full hour.

So 1 o'clock tomorrow?

I'm cheeky.

Are you all right?

Yes, everything's fine.

I'll see you tomorrow then.

The table's set then, is it?

It's all ready.

We're just going upstairs for a little rest before dinner.

All right?

I think I found the Herons.

Thanks for coming in, Georgia.

I won't keep you long.

I've decided to make you assistant manager

at the Harrogate Club, OK?

No, not really.

It takes me 40 minutes to get to Harrogate,

which means I have to set off half an hour earlier

than I do now.

And I have to pay an hour and a half extra childcare

if my mam carts it.

We can sort all that out.

No, I don't think we can.

I don't want to leave my son half an hour

earlier every evening.

And another thing, you promised me the manager's job here.

I don't think it's a job for a woman.

I'm going to give it a assignment.

He's only been here a couple of days.

He's managing material.

You're doing this because of the tape, aren't you?

What's the matter, Peter?

Were you jealous?

I was disgusted, actually.

Stick your job up your arse.

Come on, Georgia, let's talk about this.

I don't want to talk to you.

I don't want to be anywhere near you.

I can get a job anywhere, in case you had noticed.

This is a boon, sitting and crying out with those dancers.

That's what they're crying out for.

Is that what you want, to pole dance again?

You once told me I was intelligent.

You said I could make something of myself.

And you can.

Oh, sorry, I forgot.

That was when you were still trying to get into me knickers.

Georgie, please.

Keep me voice down, no.

Don't think so.

Give me that job, or I'll walk, and I'll walk loudly.

I don't know what it was made me look up.

We've been clearing upstream, and I took a break,

and that's when I saw it.

Soaring in the sky, it's massive wingspan, and then it landed.

Oh, God, are you OK?

I think it's so, it's so slippy.

Should have put my boots on.

Do you want me to go back for them?

How much further is it?

Well, we can see it from here.

If you look up in that clump of trees straight ahead.

Can't see anything.

Just follow the line of my finger.

Look a little further to the right.

I don't really know what I'm looking for.

It's a nest.

You can see the droppings below the trees.

And if you really listen, you can hear the babies calling.

The mother's in there.

Baby herons?

Yeah, sounds like three or four.

Are you all right?

Take a notice.

That's wonderful.

Is that why they haven't been in the pond?

Well, my guess is they've been busy building the nest

and fishing up here instead.

The ornamental herons will have frightened them.

Are you sure you're all right?

What's the matter with me?

I'm so lovely.

I think it's something to do with my son's girlfriend.

She's pregnant, and they've fallen out,

and I don't know what's going to happen.

It's tough, then.

I feel like I'm waiting for something.

I don't know what it is.

And when I found out Philippa was pregnant,

I thought, that it, that's what it is.

And every time she says she doesn't know what she's

going to do about the baby, I feel so anxious and empty.

My heart just sinks.

Something once happened to me a bit like that.

With a girlfriend.

So I know what you're going through.

I bet you're a fantastic mother.

I don't know.

I try my best, but sometimes.

I bet your kids love you.

Well, they're not kids anymore.

They're grown up.

You met Simon.

Was that your son?

You don't look old enough.

It's the truth.

You're the Bonnie woman.

I mean it.

I'm sorry.

Don't be.

God, I am so sorry.

I really shouldn't have done that.

I don't know what I was thinking of.

Mrs. Delaney.

My name's Hazel.

I think you're lovely, Hazel.

So one is good.

Two, three, and four are OK.

Yeah, I know.

I'm just getting things straight for myself.

So each question starts with?

How I feel about myself.

Which is not great at the minute, so five.

Do you want to talk about that or move

on to the next question?

I'm thinking.

I've said some really horrible things, and I'm sorry.

I don't know why I say them.

I don't know why I want to hurt you,

I should know, but I don't.

That's why we're doing this, isn't it? So we can find out why.

Shall we move on?

How much fun we have together?

We do have some fun.

Not for a long time.

Well, maybe we should plan to have some fun.

Well, it's difficult with this investigation hanging over us.

And I'm not blaming you.

Well, that depends how much importance we put on it.

What if they find you guilty?

Well, then we'll have to deal with it. This is about you, not me.

How much fun?

Like I said, not enough. It's bad.

The last time we went out to the pictures, we just ended up rowing.

Well, let's try not to row the next time.

I'm going round to Viv's tomorrow night. It's where we first met.

Yeah, and guess what? We're sleeping in the same room.

Only she's had it decorated.

But let's make a pact not to row. OK. Next.

My partner's importance to me. One. Very important.

Is that true?

I love you.

I know I've got a funny way of showing it sometimes,

but believe me, I do love you deeply.

I can't be here to think of you with...

But, Hushka, I must have told you half a dozen times

to knock before you come into a room on an evening.

I'm sorry, I'm looking for Fiona's micropet.

And when you're wandering around the house,

it might be better if you wore a dressing gown or something.

I don't have a dressing gown.

Then I will buy you one.

I hope that wasn't for my benefit.

No, he's being sensitive.

Well, why did you say that to her?

Because I found her in bed with my 17-year-old son, remember?

Yeah, but he isn't in this room.

He's upstairs.

You felt uncomfortable because I'm in, not because of Kiera.

No, you're wrong.

Alona, I felt it from you.

I could have touched it.

You thought that, didn't you?

You couldn't help it, but you did.

That's the point I was making earlier.

All right, I'm sorry about what I said in the therapy room.

Now, can we move on?

How many's coming, then?

Dunno, depends who turns up.

I'm going to the off-licence later if you want anything.

I've no money.

Have you got enough beer?

I've got two cases about morphing people who bring stuff.

I'll get you another couple.

My treat.

By the way, this condom's in the back of the bathroom.

Bathroom cabinet? Yeah, I know.

I've got me own, thanks.

What's the nice guy routine for?

...forget it.

The beer'd be good, though.

I'll drop it off on the way back.

Cheers I felt desire

Good, that's fantastic

Yeah, not because of the book and not because I was imagining I was Connie or anybody else but me and I felt it

Not here not here, but here deep inside of me

That is so brilliant. That's exactly what I've been hoping for so we're on a roll now

we're tapping into your sexual energy and

Did you follow the desire through or did you know I couldn't married and his?

He's a lot younger than me.

Oh, so it wasn't Peter, then?

It was the man from the Parks and Countryside department.

They're clearing the streams.

He's scruffy.

His hands are all battered and bruised.

But he's got the most beautiful eyes.

And he smells of the woods.

And how's the homework going with Peter?

Well, actually, it's taken a bit of a setback.

He took me to this hotel.

It was the sort of place where men take their mistresses,

you know, off the beaten tracks and nobody can spot their car.

The minute I walked in the place,

I just wanted to walk out again.

Of course, the receptionist knew him.

God knows how many times he's been there before.

I knew the alley was with.

Well, I thought my ears were burning.

We weren't talking about you.

I thought your appointment was yesterday.

It was my fault. I had to change it.

I'll see you back at home then.

Well, I've got to go into work, but.

No, it doesn't matter. I'll see you when I see you.

Seems like I'm in the bad books again.

Yeah, unfortunately, I had to cancel because I had a problem at home.

Everything all right now?

Yeah, getting there.

You got make-up on?

You polish up very nice, the make-up.

Oh, oh, yeah, I'm going out straight from work.

Had you ever been to that hotel before?

No, never.

I swear on my mother's life.

I wonder what it was then.

Maybe it was too early to include

the genitals and the breasts.

I was really pissed off, I can't tell you.

I nearly did something really stupid.

What was that?

I, uh, well, I thought about ringing up an ex-girlfriend.

But you didn't.

Tell me.

That's what I'm here for.

You sounded desperate on the answer machine.

I went round there to her house.

And I got the biggest shock of my life

because I saw my son coming out the front door.

What was he doing there?

I think he's seen her.

In fact, I know he's seen her.

He's just started working at the club, and she works there.

Oh, so you still see her, then?

It's just work.

There's nothing going on.

I told you the truth.

Does your son know you had an affair with her?

He does now.

They were videoed having sex in the VIP room.

He showed me the tape.

That must have been difficult.

He bloody killed me.

I thought I was going off my head.

I don't know what hurt me most, Simon showing it to me

or watching Georgia with my son.

So you still have feelings for her?

Don't know.

I suppose I must have.

At our first therapy session, you

said that there was only one of the women you had affairs with

that mattered to you.

Yeah, it was her.

And it ended messily.

She was pregnant.

That's right.

He's five now, Toby.

Do you see him?

I saw him once when he was 10 days old.

Who was that?

Bloody terrible.

One of the worst days of my life.

She'd given me an ultimatum.

I had to choose between her and Hazel.

I don't want us to finish, Georgia.

Neither did I.

I just can't do it.

I have a family, responsibilities.

You've got family and responsibilities here now.

I'll support him.

You'll never want for anything.

You can't buy me, Peter.

I don't want my money.

I wanted you.

And I never saw him again.

She wanted to pack the job in.

She put up a bit of a fight, but I offered her club hostess.

Better tell you the truth, it was a sort of a made-up job.

But it meant regular money, and she could be on the payroll

and didn't have to dance anymore.

So she took it.

She was a pole dancer.

Oh, so is that what happens in your club?

Yeah, and table now.

What does Hazel think of that?

She doesn't know about it.

She's paranoid enough.

Well, maybe if you don't tell her the truth,

she's got every reason to be.

She's not really interested in the clubs.

She never asked, so one never tell her.

So how is all this going to resolve itself?

I'm sorry I'm late.

I drove straight past it.

I knew when I got to the roundabout I'd got to be all right.

Can I get you a drink?

No, I got one, thanks.

Do you mind if...

No, no, you go ahead.

Madam Misery is downstairs.

Your ex, Philippa.

I said I didn't know whether you were in or not.

But she gave me a filthy look as if she didn't believe me.

I can set you out if you like.

I'm not bothered.

I just thought we should talk, that's all.

Yeah, of course.

You go first.

It's a bit embarrassing, is this?

I don't know what happened, but one minute I was showing you the nests, the next you were...

No, I don't know what happened either. I think I was...

feeling a bit emotional about Philippa being pregnant and everything and then

seeing the nest yeah that'll have been it I you go first well I think you

should say something to your son about how you really feel I've said maybe you

should say again yeah maybe I should maybe I should do it right now before

it's too late what were you gonna say it's going to say I'm married I know you

are to Mr. Delaney. And I've never ever done anything like that before. I believe

you. You're not the type. Do you think I could be the type? Type to what? Have an

affair, to be a mistress, to be wanton and sexy. No, you are sexy in a kind of proper

way. Don't know that I want to be proper. How do I become improper? I'm going to go

So now, otherwise I'll end up making a fool of myself again.

I'm not going to have this baby if we're not together, Simon.

Well, that's up to you.

Your mother is putting a lot of pressure on me to have it.

Well, you shouldn't have told her.

Look, I don't mind if we have a break.

If you want to have a fling before you settle down.

But if you're saying that it's really over between us

and we'll never get back together,

then I've just got to accept it and get

on with the rest of my life.

I don't know what I'm saying.

My head's all over the place at the moment.

So do you think if we gave it some time,

you might feel differently?

I told you what I thought at the flat.

Yes, but that was before you knew I was pregnant.

You've got to admit, you said a lot of that in anger.

We did have some good times, Simon.

I mean, don't you remember Cyprus,

skinny dipping in the sea and skiing in Andorra,

getting drunk and making love in Becky and Richard's chalet?

I mean, it wasn't so bad, was it?

You have the night off.

Yeah, check her out for a meal and talk to her.

That was Simon. He won't be in tonight.

Why? What's the matter?

Well, it's not for me to say.

Anyway, can you cash up?

I'm paid to host the floor.

I'm here to manage. Make me the manager.

For God's sake.

Hello, Georgia.

Girlfriend's pregnant.

To me, he's even got a girlfriend.

Yeah, well, he has.

What do you want me to do about it?

What are you doing here?

It's like a glorified brothel out there.

Women are just flaunting themselves.

Where's Simon?

He's having dinner with Philippa.

God for that. I don't want my son anywhere near this place.

I think we should go home and discuss this.

I don't want to discuss it.

It's seedy and disgusting.

And what happens when the police find out what's going on here?

Nothing's going on. It's perfectly legal.

I've got a licence.

All the clubs are doing it, Hazel.

What the hell are you doing here anyway? You haven't been here in years.

I came to talk to Simon and this Georgia.

And I suppose you're going to tell me she takes her clothes off as well.

It's got nothing to do with us. You should leave.

Of course it's got something to do with us. He's our son.

Philippa is carrying our grandchild.

How can you stand there and say it's got nothing to do with us?

Do! I've had enough of this. I'm going. Get out of my way.

Simon's your son.

Steve, I need to see you now.

It's prostitution and you're nothing better than a glorified phim.

I've got nothing to hide.

She's been down to the hospital to be examined.

I dreamt about you.

Well, not so much a dream as a fantasy.

What if I made you the manager? No more you and Simon.

I might marry her, that'd be fun, wouldn't it?

She'd be a daughter-in-law then.

I felt desire.

I ran you because I wanted to have sex.

Flipper is carrying our grandchild.

And what's he accused of?

Indecent assault on a female under the age of 16.

Simon's your son.

Steve, I need to see you. Now.

Do you know where my hostess got me?

The door.

At last! You're starving!

Sorry, I'm late. I got held up with this clang on the blanket.

I had to wait and...

She's starting to get worried. I should have run.

You remember Mark, don't you?

Yeah, of course.

I can put the soup on now.

Want some wine?

Yeah, I'll just get myself a glass.

We've seen each other two weeks now.

You could have told me.

I did.

You said Mark. I didn't know you meant that Mark.

What are you worried about? You didn't snog him or anything?

No, but I went back to his flat.

He never told me that.

Nothing happened, but it could have.

Was that the night you left me in the nightclub?

You cow! You told me you had a migraine.

Yeah, well, I ended up with one.

I thought you and Paul were all right now.

We're getting there. Anyway, what are we gonna do about Mark?

What are you doing here?

I'm meeting somebody.

None of your business.

Are we gonna talk about this or what?

I don't want to talk to you. All you ever tell me is lies anyway.

I haven't lied to you. I told you I was developing the club.

You call that developing?

You said you were refurbishing. And we did.

It was going to be stylish, a classier place than it was before.

Well, if you think having naked girls gyrating in men's faces is classy,

then we come from very different places.

No, we come from the same place, Hazel.

It's just that you think you come from somewhere else. Meaning?

Meaning you're happy enough to take the money for the hospice.

If my mother thought the bed she slept in was paid for with dirty money,

she'd rather have slept in the street.

You know, you've got a warped mind.

Because I don't believe in exploiting young women.

What would Philippa's family think if they knew?

What is there to know?

I'm a property developer.

What's the problem?

You're not.

This you call young women property.

It's prostitution, and you're nothing

better than a glorified pimp.

And you're a bloody snob.

Do you get caviar?

We had a dialysis.

What's the matter?

Why you just stood there, then?

I just don't think it's a good idea for me to come in, that's all.

Fine, you don't have to string a story together.

I'll ring you after I've had the scan, or if you'd rather not speak to me,

you can ask your mother, she's coming with me. Good night, Simon.

Philippa, it's hard for me, is this?

It'd be the easiest thing for me to come in there now, and we both know what'd happen.

You flatter yourself.

Actually, the thing about being pregnant is I've completely gone off sex.

I like your company, not your body. Are you coming in or not?

The thing that pisses me off is that women expect us to be super studs these days.

Excuse me, that is complete bollocks.

It's not. I'm telling you, women expect to have more than one orgasm.

You've been reading too many women's magazines.

I'm talking about women I've slept with, Viv.

Oh, right. Well, I'll just talk about all the men I've slept with then, shall I?

Come on, I'm making a serious point. What do you think, Alana?

I'm saying that women expect more than one orgasm.

Well, I think some women do and some are very happy with one.

Yeah, I'm happy we won. Just as well, really.

You see? There you go. What?

You're insinuating that I'm crapping both. I'm not!

You are. I mean, I'm telling you, men are being pressurised.

I think some women feel pressured to have an orgasm.

Yeah. I still fake it and I don't care who knows.

I bet loads of women do.

I mean, if it's a one-night stand, I know I'm not gonna come,

so I'll just do it to get it over with.

Well, I hope you never faked it with me.

Well, first night I did.

I mean, you were so quick, I didn't stand a chance.

Thanks, Viv.

You ask.

Oh, have you know that that is the second most common problem,

isn't it?

That's what you told me, anyway.

Well, yeah, that's easily cured, the stop and start

technique or the squeeze.

You never did send me that fact sheet.

Hang on a minute.

I don't understand this.

Were you a client of a loaner's?

No, no, we just met in a nightclub.

I told you about it.

When we went out for my decree nice eye party.

Yeah, I was chatting her up, but she was having none of it.

So I went back and got him a week after.

Right, who's up for a game of trade?

Oh, God, not me.

I'm shattered.

I think I'd better take her to bed.

Well, remember, mate, more than one.

And don't worry, we'll turn the musical.

Where have you been?

Danny Merrill.

You're a liar, you piece of shit.

Get the fuck out of here.

Tell me what to do next.

They're worth it.

Said no sex.

I wasn't planning on coming back.

I wanted to tell you about Simon being my son, but I promised him I wouldn't say anything.

You don't need to tell me anything!

Georgia! Georgia!

And softly, with that marvellous swoon-like caress of his and impure, soft desire...

Hazel? Hazel?

...softly, he stroked the silky slope of her loins down in between.

Enjoy what you're feeling and let yourself go. You create your fantasy and be in it.

It's my mother and something the matter with Fiona.

It's ringing again.

Oh, I'm nearly there, Paul.

Come on.

I'll do anything you ask.

I need you so much.

Is this what you need?

Let's see.

It's yours.

There's a message.

Oh, turn the bloody thing off.

That's the next door, neighbours.

They're going to call the police.

Your phone's off the hook.

That's right.

I don't want to talk to anybody.

What, and that includes me?

Yes, especially you.

Well, do you mind telling me what I've done wrong?

I met your mother tonight. She came to the club to tell me to back off because your girlfriend's pregnant, so that's what I'm doing, backing off.

Stupid bloody woman. Can I come in? What can I talk about?

There's nothing to talk about. It's over. It should never have begun.

I'll decide that.

No, Simon, I decide.

Because that's how it is.

What, because my ex-girlfriend says she's pregnant?

No, because Peter's your father and you lied to me.

Georgia, I can explain. Georgia!

Seems like we slept on someone's semen last night.

I told you, no-one was to go into our bedroom.

No-one did.

How do you account for this?

Maybe it's Paul's.

No, it's not Paul's.

And she'd know her being the sex therapist and all.

Well, it's a reasonable assumption to make, isn't it?

Look, I told everybody your room was banned.

That's Bahushka.

Okay, we'll wash the sheets.

I think I preferred it when you were on my side.

You can't have it both ways.

I think maybe they don't have the sex.

I'm not talking to you.

Alona, I enjoyed last night.

You enjoyed it a whole lot more if you just let us finish.

Well, it's like good wine.

It's all the better for the keeping.

The more you drink it, the more you want it.

We'll sink a nice big bottle tonight, then, shall we?

Oh, what the bloody hell, now?

Who the bloody hell do they think they are?

They want to sink a sod in electrical cable now?

Not only have they buggered up the pond,

they're going to bugger up the gardener, no?

Let them step on this land, and they'll get

a bullet between their balls.

They'll have to take it right up Norris Street

and across the bank.

Turn the bastards right.

I was wondering if.

Don't tell me you've come about this cable business.

I don't know anything about cables.

I'm nothing to do with electric.

I'm parks and countryside.

I was wondering if, uh, if you.

What spit it out, lad?

Well, if you'd seen the herons, the baby herons.

Baby herons?

What are you talking about?

Well, they've nested further in the woodland.

There's three or four in the clutch.

Oh, that's bloody marvellous!

Ho-ho, that's best news, I've heard this.

Hazel, the Herons are back. They've got babies.

Ha-ha! Oh, I've got to see this.

Where's me boots?

Last time I saw them, they were in the boot of your car.

Ho-ho, baby Herons.

I don't believe it.

Are you coming or what?

No, I've got an appointment.

Oh, bugger the appointment, we've got baby Herons. Come on.

You look lovely.

Thank you.

I saw you in the car park. I thought you might ring me.

I'm just a bit mixed up.

I want to see you.

Can I ring you on your mobile?

Right, you coming?

Oh, please yourself.

Where are they then?

I'll show you.

Who's all that shouting about?

The Herons are back.

God, I never hear the end of it now.

That's his passion.

Yeah, not his only one.

What's that supposed to mean?

I heard you went to the club last night.

I went to find you.

I suppose she told you, did she?

She's got a name.

It's Georgia.

You're not going to break us up.

If you ever do anything like that again,

I'll never forgive you as long as I live.

And how many times I have to tell you

that I don't love Philippa?

What do you want me to do, be with someone

I don't even like very much?

Well, stop interfering.

I'm a grown man.

I can make my own decisions.

What about the baby?

What baby?

I'm going to bring your picture of the sky,

and then maybe you'll believe it.

Yeah, you do that.

So the female just stays at home with the chicks, does she?

For about seven weeks.

You know a lot about this sort of stuff, don't you?

I like nature.

Makes sense of everything.

Have you got a family?

I don't like one.

Well, you're only young.

It'll happen.

Got to meet someone first.

You will.

When you meet her, you'll know it's her.

I did.

Oh, is that her head, just there, sticking up?

No, it's just a branch, I think.

You've got to be really patient.

Then you'll be rewarded.

Patience is my middle name, mate.

I've got it stamped on me forehead.

Only in my book, there is no reward.

What the bloody hell's up with this?

Phone's gone funny.

Did your mother say where she was going?

Did you see the herring, then?

Sword's nest.

Who told Georgie you were my father?

She heard your mother in the office going on at me

about letting you work there.

It's the truth.

I swear to God.

It's best she knows anyway.

Why is it best?

Well, it's going nowhere, is it?

Who says?

I might marry her.

That'd be fun, wouldn't it?

She'd be a daughter-in-law, then.

Stop it.

You're warning me about what?

No, you got it wrong, Dad. It's me warning you.

Look, I know you're trying to split us up. I'm not stupid.

And I know you told Mum she's not a nice person.

But if anything like that ever happens again,

I think Mum will be interested to know that she was good enough for you to fuck for two and a half years.

I'd kill you first.

Good morning.

Is Peter not coming?

Erm, not sure. He was a bit preoccupied this morning.

He knows you've got an appointment, though.

Well, I didn't remind him.

Oh, OK. Come through.

We're not really on speaking terms.

I see. Do you want to talk about that, or...?

I've had an orgasm.

Fantastic. Well done. How did that happen?

Well, I did like you said, and I got my scene together.

And it was in the hut, and I was Connie.

And I touched the right place, and it was all nice and everything.

And then it happened.

The orgasm?

No, the scene changed, the fantasy.

And it wasn't in the hut any more.

Where was it?

In my husband's nightclub.

Oh, right.

I went there last night. That's why we've fallen out.

Oh, it's a terrible place.

There's women prancing around with next to no clothes on.

Some of them are stark naked. I'm not kidding you.

So it was a bit of a shock for you then, was it?

Well, it wasn't like that when I went before.

He's changed and not told me, but then that's nothing new.

Maybe you should take more of an interest in what Peter does.

Anyway, you were saying in your fantasy you were in his nightclub.

Dancing for Steve.

You know, the Parks and Countryside man.

And I was wearing that new underwear you told me to buy.

And honestly, I was being really dirty.

I liked it.

But it wasn't how I thought it would be.

The orgasm.

Oh, no, that was better.

I was getting there and getting there and I could feel it building up in my legs running up from me toes

Is that mad?

And then it went straight up between my legs, through my body and nearly took the top of my head off

I've never felt anything like it in my life

And then the release, oh it was the sweetest, most lovely feeling in all the world

And I want to do it again and again.

So how many times have you done it?

Once. How many times can you do it?

As often as you like. In fact, the more you do it, the more you get to know how to do it.

But it's the fantasy. See, I didn't want to think that.

I wanted to do it to Lady Chatterley's lover.

Yeah, but it really doesn't matter what creates the sexual energy, as long as...

It does, if it's disgusting.

I mean, he's sat there and he's got this...

I'm sorry, it's so hot in here. Do you have some water?

You know, Hazel, it's whatever works.

It's interesting, don't you think, that in reality you found the nightclub disgusting?

But on the other hand, it was the thing that tapped into your eroticism.

Are you saying I've got double standards?

No, it's just an observation, that's all.

Maybe some people need that kind of thing in their lives.

Maybe that kind of club serves a need.

Sorry I'm late. Can I come in?

Yeah, we weren't sure whether you were coming or not.

I saw it ringed on the calendar.

I wasn't interrupting anything, was I?

Do you want me to go back out while you finish?

No, we can stay now.

He's here.

I was right.

The appointment was for both of us, wasn't it?

Yes, yes. Come in.

Sit down.

So how have things been progressing for you then, Peter?

Well, they're not really, are they?

We haven't done any massaging since the hotel, have we?

She isn't talking to me.

Well, only when she has to.

I suppose she's told you about her little trip to the club.

I'm not some pervert.

It's business.

Who mentioned pervert?

Well, what was the look for?

I think it was just a bit of a shock for Hazel, that's all.

Well, I'm sorry.

That's how I earn my living.

Me and my partner have got a few properties dotted about.

Two of them are lap dancing clubs, end of story.

They're springing up everywhere.

It's a good night out.

Have you ever been to one?

Can't say that I have.

Well, if you want to bring your fellow along,

I'll let you both in for free.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I can't stand any more of this.

Of course, Lady Hazel thinks it's beneath her.

It's all a bit degrading.

It's a bit too near the knuckle for you,

isn't it, love, all that flesh?

It's all those lies, all that deceit that bothers me.

Because I can't tell you the bloody truth.

You have that eye on that pedestal.

You put me there.

Why do you think I come here in the first place?

I thought I knew.

But now I've no bloody idea.

Because I want to sort myself out.

For us?

Hazel, I said for us.

Are you going to answer me?

I don't know.

You don't know?

Well, I'll tell you what.

When you've made up your mind, let me know.

Sit down, Peter.

I've come along to these sessions,

and I've opened up my bloody heart.

I've told her things I've never told a living soul.

And for what?

Let's just keep calm.

Well, you heard what she said to me.

I've given 30 years of my life to that woman.

That woman?

That woman has borne you two children and put up with your affairs.

I'll change that record, will you?

And you're clumsy, fumbling up this idea of lovemaking.

Yeah, well, it's a bit difficult when you're not getting anything back.

I'm here because you couldn't do it.

No, that's not strictly true.

I'm here because you couldn't turn me on.

Let's get things into perspective.

Another new term you've learned, is it?

I'm off.

I've got better things to do with me time.

That didn't go very well, did it?

So is that what you really think?

I don't know.

Do you think somehow you're blaming, Peter,

for what happened to you in the park when you were 12?

I don't know.

Perhaps you've linked the feelings of shame

after you were molested with the shame

you felt when you found out you were pregnant and unmarried.

I've never thought about it.

I sometimes think I'd like to start all over again

with a clean slate.

With a Parks and Countryside man?

That would have been him earlier,

leaving me a message on my mobile saying he wants to see me.

Does that please you?

Well, I'm pleased someone finds me attractive,

and a younger man at that.

What you've got to remember, Hazel,

is that fantasies are all right,

as long as that's what they are, fantasies.

Sometimes when you try and turn fantasy into reality,

things can go horribly wrong.

Don't worry, I'm not going to run off with him.

I made a pact with God.

Just let me have my grandchild and I'll let him go.

Is that what you do, make deals with God?

I've got to go to work, and your nana's not feeling very well.

But I'll tell you what, he can come on Sunday if he's all right with his mum and dad, OK?

You're on the wrong side of town, aren't you?

I was just passing, I saw your car parked up.

Is that Toby?

This is my boss, Mrs Delaney. Say hello.

You're a big boy now, aren't you?

Yeah, well, that was what happens. I grow.

It's a credit to you.

No, I mean it.

Can we have a word?

I'm busy. I've got to get Toby's tea, pick my mother up and then get ready for work.

Can't it wait till tonight?

I'd rather deal with it off the premises. You never know who's listening.

Okay. Come on, then.

She either wants him to admit he's had a affair so they can move on and put it behind them,

or she wants him to tell her so she can run off with a Parks and Countryside man with a clear conscience.

I'm not sure which.

So where's your money?

Oh, I don't know.

She's just had her first orgasm, so her brain's all over the place.

What gets me is this woman's got two men lusting after her and I'm lucky if I get a shag of months.

I'm gonna have to go.

Maybe it should be me getting advice off her.

I'll see you later.

What do you want?

I've come to see you.

You shouldn't be here. How did you know where I work?

Paul told me.

My probation officer said Paul had been suspended from his job and I felt really bad.

I never wanted to cause him any bother. Will you tell him I'm really sorry?

Yeah, I'll tell him. Is that all you wanted to say?

And I'm sorry for breaking your window.

I just go off my head sometimes.

That's all right.

So I ain't got anyone to talk to.

I went to the hospital yesterday for a test

to see whether I'm a virgin or not.

Tracy, if you've come here to cause trouble.

No, I haven't.

It's all right, because I told them

I did it twice for that lad who came

around to put a new cooker in.

Are you married to Paul?

No, but we've been together for a long time,

and we have a daughter.

What's her name?

She's lucky.

Thing is, I miss him.

Well, maybe when all this is over.

There's so much to look forward to.

Seeing him, now I ain't got hope.

Here, you give this back to Paul for me.

When did he give you this?

My birthday.

It's all right.

I didn't tell police, though.

Can you tell me what time Philippa

Brocklehurst's appointment is?

I don't appear to have a Philippa Brocklehurst listed.

Yeah, sure.

She definitely said it was today.

Check the list yourself.

I don't understand it.

She's pregnant.

It's for her scan.

Why would she arrange to meet me?

Why would she do that?

Once you know, it's obvious.

I mean, he even looks like you.

I suppose that's why I felt drawn to him.

Toby looks like you.

No, he doesn't.

Looks like my dad.

Just hope he treats women a bit better, that's all.

So what do you want anyway?

I've got to pick up my mother in a minute.

I want to make you an offer.

And I don't want you to take it the wrong way.

Try me.

What if I made you the manager?

I thought you said you were making Simon the manager.

Yeah, well, I could have a rethink.

I mean, if the circumstances were right.

Go on.

No more you and Simon.

But it's got to come from you.

I mean, it makes sense, doesn't it?

The same.

I'll think about it.

There is just one other thing.

And it's a bit personal.

Basically, I'd like to know if I was any good.

What do you think?

It's that long ago I can hardly remember.

Oh, obviously left a lasting impression then.

What's up?

Somebody knocked your confidence?

Can I have more coal, Mum?

You've had enough, it'll rot your teeth.

I'll get you some juice in a minute, alright?

You were good.

Thank God for that.

Stop cheating!

What's that?

It's a dance mat.

Get a boy for Fiona with some of his birthday money.

Can I have a word?

Is everything all right?

Me next.

I had some good news today.

You know, they took my car in for forensic testing.

A couple that dropped it back gave me the nod.

I couldn't find a thing.

Fantastic. Do you want one of these?

It's a bit early.

Bad day.

Did you tell Tracy where I worked?

No, why?

She turned up, that's all.

She must have followed you out of the ring, Liz.

She had this.

What is it?

It's my necklace.

You bought it for me in Scarborough

from that little jewelers in the back street.

She told me you gave her it.

Well, obviously I didn't.

OK, well, the question is, how the hell

did she get a hold of it?

I'm beating you.

I'm the new Suprema.

Can I have a go now?

Kieran, you know that girl that were lobbing bricks

through our window the other week?

Has she been in this house?

Not that I know of, why?

What about the party?

Well, I'm hardly going to invite her, am I?

Have I done something else wrong?

No, no, it's OK.

Just carry on with your game.

I think we should ring the police.

Isn't that just going to make things worse?

No, she must have stolen it.

It's the only explanation.

Paul, leave it.

If you can't prove you didn't give her it,

you might land yourself in even bigger trouble.

It's best to be open and honest about these things.

I have got nothing to hide.

Just let it go.

I didn't give her the necklace.

I believe you.

Thank God for that.

So let me ring the police.

What good will it do?

It's the hearing in a couple of days.

Things are finally going right for you.

Let's not rock the boat.

I don't understand what the problem is.

She's been down to the hospital to be examined.

So she told me that her hymen wasn't intact.

Well, there's a surprise.

That has got absolutely nothing to do with me.

She said she told the doctor that she'd

had sex with the lad who came round to her house

to fit the new cooker.

She probably did and a few more besides.

It was the way she said it.

She looked me straight in the eye, not a flinch, nothing.

She didn't even say the bloody words.

What words?

She was letting me know that she was letting you off the hook.

I was never on a hook.

He won't let me have a turn.

Tell him it's your go next.

What are you doing?

I think we need a bit of space.

We've got to go away till the investigation's over.

I'll keep in touch.

Well, that's good of you.

Look, I said I believed you, Paul.

Yeah, but they're hollow words of honor.

You'd like to believe me, but the truth is you can't.

Not like this.

What are you doing?

I'm going away for a couple of days.

I'll ring you.

You don't have to do this, you know.

I do.

What did he do?

Hazel, you didn't turn up at the hospital,

and I just wondered if everything's all right.

Can you ring me?

Are you looking for me?

Oh, there you are.

Are you OK?

I don't really know.

What's the matter?

It seems Simon doesn't want us to get back together.

He says this woman he's been seeing

has nothing to do with it.

But as far as he's concerned, we're finished.

He couldn't have said it any plainer.

Well, like I said before, we're here for you, whatever you need.

The only thing I need is Simon.

I meant for the baby.

There is no baby anymore.

That's why I didn't go for the scan.

I've had a termination.

I'm sorry.

What have you said to Georgia?

Why, what she's saying, I've said.

It's not what she's saying.

It's what she's not saying.

Simon, it's got nothing to do with me.

There's one thing I know about Georgia.

It's that she's her own person.

If you think she'd take any notice of me,

then you obviously don't know it.

I do know her, and I know we had something.

It was real.

And now she's trying to pretend like it never happened.

She was a dancer, Simon.

It was her job to make men feel special.

And we're not talking about a Cheryl or a Natalie.

She's got it up here.

Now, I know what you're going through.

I've been in your position.

What I did was wrong, and I got me comeuppance.

But you've done nothing.

You're a free agent.

Let her go.

I can't.

Oh, you won't.

I want her.

Because I had a fling with her.

I wanted her before I even knew about that.

And it wasn't a fling you had with her.

It was a full blown affair.

Two and a half years you deceived my mother.

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

That's why you showed me the tape.

You want to hurt me as much as you can.

And why, I've no idea.

Because God knows I've never wanted to hurt you.

I had a father who didn't give two shits about me,

but I did the best I could for you.

I've worked my bollocks off to provide you

with the good things in life,

and I've asked for nothing in return, nothing.

Peter, where the hell are you?

You're never there when I need you.

I've seen Philippa.

She's got the baby.

She's had it.

Is Red all right?

Why, Nathan, where's Paul?

Yeah, it's a long story.

Can you make yourself scarce?

Go on.

Tell me you've not made a deal with him.

What the hell you on about?

He's made you manager, hasn't he?

What, so he just changed his mind all by himself and did it?

Simon, I am the right person for the job.

I've worked here for over seven years.

I know the industry inside out.

And I'm a single parent struggling to...

Oh, anyway, I've got your concern.

Give me up and you get to be manager.

You're so bloody obvious.

You don't know anything.

You think you do, but you don't.

So go on, then.

Tell me something I don't know.

My dad was right.

You're not a nice person.

Who stood there calling me deceitful and a liar?

You're worse than him.

You're worse than him.

You'd stick a knife in someone's back to get a foothold up.

I didn't even know...

Like my dad says, you were just a cheap dancer.

It was your job to tell lies,

keep the customers happy, make men feel good.

Now you've had me in the booth, you've got me all excited,

you've had your money, and now it's bye-bye Simon.

It's got absolutely nothing to do with that.

You couldn't be more wrong.

I do have feelings for you.

I really like you. A lot.

We can never, ever be together now.

Why not?

Torbett is Peter's child.

It's like I've been waiting for this to happen.

Something had to come along and burst the bloody bubble.

Like Graham's illness burst your bubble before?

Yeah, just like that.

When he was diagnosed, I didn't believe it.

I thought, there's no way. They've got it wrong.

They've looked at the wrong x-ray.

I mean, the man did a physical job.

He rode a Harley Davidson. He was...

He was fit and he was so full of life.

How could he have cancer?

So what was life like before Graham's illness I don't want to talk about it just makes me upset

It was perfect was blissful. I didn't worry about anything

He was eight years older than me

And he took care of everything. He took care of me

If you'd have met him you'd understand

It's all right. Let it go

I don't believe this

It's been nine years

So what maybe you didn't leave it long enough after he died

Maybe you still needed to grieve

when Paul came into your life.

I want to stay here.

Let's go for a walk.

What if you see someone you know?

I don't care. I wanted to shake her,

scream in her face, but...

me mouth just wouldn't work.

I just stood there, stupefied.

How could she do that?

I don't know.

An ex-girlfriend of mine did the same.

So I know what you're going through.

Does your son know?

I suppose he'd be bothered.

He never believed she was pregnant anyway.

Maybe she wasn't.

He can't just organize these things overnight.

That's a horrible thing to do.

What about your husband?

What about him?

Have you told him?

I rang, but he wasn't there.

He's never there.

She rang me instead.

Well, I needed to talk to someone.

And you've been ringing me all day.

Boy, it wasn't just that.

And I wanted to see you as well.

Did you?

Of course I did.

Because just I never know where I am with you.

You do.

I don't.

Sometimes you give out messages like back off,

and other times you're.

I never want you to back off.

But I think what we're doing is wrong.

What do you feel for your husband?

I don't know.

Don't think I've ever really known.

Sometimes I think I love him, and sometimes I

don't even like him.

Suppose I'm used to him.

And there's times when we sort of connect.

And then there's times when I look at him

and I'm filled with pride.

What about?

Well, he made a go at things, didn't he?

He had nothing, came from the slums of Leeds

and made something of himself.

He doesn't make me happy.

Maybe you have to find that for yourself.

I left him once for a night.

Went to my son's.

I went back again the next day.

Oh, I didn't know what else to do.

Frightened of being on my own.

I kept thinking, who's going to want me at my time of life?

You don't mean that.

I do.

Come and live with me.

It's just a two up, two down in Wurtley.

I'd love to live with you in your two up, two down in Wurtley.

Not going to happen.

Why not?

Well, because I have a family, responsibilities.

What were people thinking, me?

What's it matter?

It's your wife.

I've dreamt about you.

Not so much a dream as a daydream, a fantasy.

You're in this nightclub and I was dancing for you.

That was nice.

Your mother's gone missing.

Have you said something to her?

I said, did you know Dad had a two-and-a-half-year affair?

And he's got a bastard son!

What's killing me is this.

I can't eat, I can't sleep.

I had my hearing yesterday.

Go to the police station and withdraw your allegations.

Otherwise, you're gonna look stupid in court.

I miss you, Hazel.

We miss you.

Come with me.

Back to Paul for me.

It's all right. I didn't tell the police, though.

Gotta go away till the investigation's over.

What about Heron's?

They're monogamous, aren't they?

I really like it a lot.

But we can never, ever be together now.

Why not?

Toby is Peter's child.

Peter, where the hell are you?

You're never there when I need you.

What's wrong?

What are you asking me for?

I just thought you might be...

I haven't been in the office since I was in there.

I have to warn you, he's smashed out of his brains.

I had to tell him about Toby and...

You did what?

Are you a bloody stupid woman?

I don't even know if he's mine.

How can you say that? There wasn't anybody else.

Well, that ex-boyfriend was hanging around.

Hanging around, yes. I wasn't shagging him.

Come in, Daddy.

Come and meet yourself at home.

Sorry about the mess.

I hope you don't mind, but I helped myself to some of your whiskey.

I'll just say goodbye to Erika.

I'll have to introduce you to her sometime.

She does everything you want, causes you no grief.

Not like some women who go and get themselves pregnant.

You and I got quite a lot in common, Doug.

Philippa's not pregnant anymore.

Mysteriously, it disappears.

Not like little Toby, eh?

He didn't go away, did he?

Now he's a chip off the old block.

I don't know what the hell you're talking about.

Don't you?

We'll have to speak to Georgia then,

because she seems to think you're Toby's dad.

That is complete bollocks.

Why would she say that, then?

I don't know.

Maybe she wants to finish it.

She doesn't know how else to do it.

She does not want to finish it.

It's you that's put it into her head.

I've got more important things to worry about

than your love life, Simon.

Your mother's gone missing.

Have you said something to her?

I said, did you know Dad had a two and a half year affair?

And he's got a bastard son!

I'm serious.

She left a message on me mobile.

It sounded like something had happened to her.

Well, maybe something has.

Maybe it's finally dawned on her that you're a piece of shite,

and she's left you for good this time.

Who the bloody hell do you think you're talking to?

Grateful bastard.

Hey, you!

It was terrible. We were just punching the hell out of each other.

I just couldn't stop myself.

It was like I was taking out all my frustration on him.

And that was four days ago?

Have you and your son spoken about it?

Not really. I've hardly seen him. He's just been home once.

And you haven't seen Hazel at all?

Nothing. Not a telephone call, not a letter.

My daughter's coming back from her honeymoon tomorrow. What am I going to tell her?

The truth.

I don't know what the truth is.

You'd tell me if you'd heard from her, wouldn't you?

Unless she asked me not to.

She hasn't been in touch.

I feel like I'm going out of my mind.

If she'd just let me know that she's all right, I'd feel better.

What's killing me is this.

I can't eat, I can't sleep. Do you have to do that?

Oh, I'm sorry. Does it bother you?

Yeah, it does.

I've rung all her sisters, even Bernadette in New Zealand.

Nobody's seen her.

Right. And there definitely couldn't be anybody else involved.

What? Hazel?

Must be joking.

No way.

So you're gonna have to show me what to do.

What do you mean?

Well, how you have an orgasm.

Oh, I couldn't do that. I've only just learnt myself.

Oh, come on.

No, it's true. I've been seeing a sex therapist.

Really? I only had my first one last week.

First one with your husband?

No, first one ever.

You were having me on.

No, it's the God's honest truth.

I thought it was because we were new together.

Well, you thought wrong then, didn't you?

Hey, don't get uppity with me because I'll tickle you to death.

Oh, show me what the sex therapist taught you.

I couldn't.

Of course you could.

I'm a bit too embarrassed.

Oh, of me. Come on. Show me what to do.

Sorry. There was an accident on the ring road. There was a tailback.

It's okay. Don't think so worried.

I finished early so I just jumped in a cab and came straight here.

You got a drink then? Another glass of red wine, please.

In fact, can we have a bottle?

So how come you finished work early?

Oh, this client. I've been seeing him.

His wife's left him and he only came to see me to find out if she'd been intact.

And has she?

No, but I think I know where she is.

Did you tell him?

No way. I might be wrong.

It's a shame, cos we're just beginning to make some progress.

We think we've got problems.

No, I think we've got a hiccup, that's all.

And I think we'll get over it.

I had my hearing yesterday.

No, I wanted to ring you. How was it?

I don't know. Alright, I think.

I was a bit on the defensive.

Oh, you're bound to be.

I just tried to answer all the questions honestly.

I really wanted to tell him about that necklace, though.

But you didn't.

I'm just worried it'll come back to haunt me.

Then what if she showed it to somebody, or told someone?

It would've come out at the hearing.

Anyway, it's over now.

They're not gonna make a decision until the police investigation's over. It could be weeks.

Fiona's been asking where you are.

I said you were on a course, and...

...you'd be back at the weekend.

I wanna come home, but...

But what?

I just think there's a lot of tension between us at the minute.

It's not good for the kids.

I think us being apart is more damaging.

Anyway, shall we order? I'm starving.

Food up!

I'm not hungry.

Well, how can you not be hungry? We've not eaten for days.

Try it. Go on, it's lovely.

What's the matter?

Nothing. Just thinking.

What about?

Well, how about Simon? He'd be worried about me.

Well, phone him if it makes you feel better.

My battery's down.

Use mine.

It was here a minute ago.

You don't have to hide anything from me, Hazel.

I wasn't.

I know it's not gonna be easy, this.

But as long as we're truthful with one another.

Yeah, I know.

Just didn't want to burst the bubble, that's all.

It's not a bubble, it's the rest of our lives.

The thing is, Simon, if I marry you, I know I'll make you dead happy and that,

but if I stay single, I'll make millions of men happy.

Oh, excuse me, I won't be a minute.

You better not be, I'm watching me watch.

Just for the record, are you supposed to be working or are you here as a client?

I'm whatever you want me to be, darling.

What's up, are you jealous?

Oh yeah, I'm jealous.

that you sat on your arse doing nothing while I'm brushed off my bloody feet.

Oh, I don't want to sit on my knee, babe. Have a little rest.

No, thanks. You stink.

You want to go home, get a shower and sober up.

I haven't got a home.

Can I come and live with you? After all, you're nearly family.

You're my brother's mother.

You're sick, you.

Mind you, Cheryl says I can live with her.

Well, go and live with her then.

I tell you what, she's a bloody good shag.

She's nearly as good as you, babe.

I don't know what you're trying to do, Simon, but you're trying to hurt the wrong one.

Then again, I hear Chantal does a fantastic blowjob.

Simon, Delaney speaking. Hello?

Simon, it's me.

Mum, where are you?

I'm staying with a friend.

I'm just ringing to let you know I'm alright.

Dad's been worried. He's going off his head.

He's called the police.

Well, tell him I'm fine.

Tell him not to worry about me.

You sound funny.

It's cos I've been drinking.

Well, don't.

Listen, I'll be in touch, love.

I'll ring you again.

Well, everything's a mess, Mum.

I need to see you cos I need to tell you something.

Look after yourself. I've got to go, love.

What is it that you're gonna tell her?

What do you think?

You're gonna tell her about Toby?

Well, she might as well know it all.

You're a cruel bastard.

Yeah, and that come from the mouth of the expert.

Can I speak to my mum?

It's for you.

It's me. Who was that?

A friend. I told you.

I'll leave you two.

I can meet you somewhere.

So what do you think went wrong with us then?

You see, I knew this would happen if I came in.

Paul, we've got to talk about this.

I promise it won't get into an argument.

I just need to know what you think, that's all.

It'll end in a row, and we've had a lovely night.

Okay, I think that you put a lot of emphasis on sex.

And it isn't that important to me.

Maybe it's because of your job.

Maybe it's because...

Because I like to be intimate with the person I love.

It's a physical demonstration of your feelings for me.

Sounds like a phrase from one of your books.

I can't help being a sex therapist.

What I can't understand is why you don't need to be intimate with me.

I do. Sometimes.

Just not as often as you, that's all.

Do you remember what we used to be like in the beginning?

What did I have then that's gone?

I don't know. I suppose...

..it was new and exciting.

Well, you respected me.

You looked at me as though I was someone.

What, and I don't know?

I have to go.

I've never been in a bath with someone else before.

It saves water.

Just as well then.

I usually have bubbles.

Have you got some washing up liquid?

No thanks. I'll get someone to go shopping.

What are you shopping for?

Food and clothes. I've nothing to wear.

I don't want you to go shopping.

I've got to.

Make me a list of what you want and I'll go.

Don't be silly.

You won't come back?

Of course I will.

I came here because I wanted to. I've never felt so free in me life. Don't spoil it.

I'm sorry, I just...nothing.

You've got lovely little feet.

And you've got lovely strong legs.

And a proper woman's body.

What does that mean?

It means you go in and out in all the right places. I like that.

What are you doing? You'll drown!

Delaney? Hazel?

It's Aira. Is that you, Daddy?

Oh, hello, love. Where are you?

At work. He said he'd pick us up.

Oh, bloody hellfire.

Listen, get a cab back here and I'll pay this end.

It'll cost a fortune.

Don't worry about that. Just do it.

I'll see you soon.

You're dripping.

On your carpet.

Oh, bloody.

What do you want?

I just want your autograph on this bit of paper, sir.

It's for the overhead wires.

I understand you didn't want them under your land.

That's right.

I don't want no bloody big pylons, neither.

I shouldn't think there'd be any need for that.

I take it you've agreed the terms.

It's just I don't want you making a bollocks of it like you did with the water.

It's nothing to do with me, sir.

Yeah. Funny that.

It's never nothing to do with nobody.

Sarah and Spen are on their way back.

God knows what I'm gonna tell them about your mother.

Do you want some money?

No, it's all right. I got some.

Don't look so worried. I'll be back before you know it.

What time?

Oh, I don't know. I might pop into the hospice,

Let them know I'll only be coming once a fortnight now.

You could ring them.

Oh, they'd be expecting me.

And I want to see Gladys.

Oh, you're making me feel bad, Steve.

I don't mean to.

I just don't know what I'll do without you.

I don't know what I'd do without you, neither.

You're just saying that.

No, I'm not.

Go on.

I'm all right.

I suppose Simon told you I'd be here.

Yeah, thank God.

I was going out of me mind.

I'm sorry.

How are you?

I'm all right, thank you.

What have you done to your face?

I fell over. Can we go somewhere and talk?

I've got nothing to say, Peter.

Yeah, well, I have. Come on, you owe me that much.

I don't owe you anything.

I've given you the best years of my life,

and I want what's left for myself.

Well, will you do me a favour, then?

Will you tell Sarah and Simon that?

Cos I don't see why I should have to do it.

Yeah, I'll tell them.

When? When I'm ready.

It's just that Sarah's asked where you are twice.

Did you pick them up?

I forgot.

I paid for the cab, though.

I've told them they can stay at the house

because their kitchen ain't ready yet.

They'll look a picture.

You should see a pair of them.

Did they have a nice time?

They've taken loads of videos and photographs.

She wants to show us.

I told you he might be back tonight.

I miss you, Hazel.

We miss you.

Come with me, Hazel.

Just for an half an hour.

I'll bring you straight back.

I just want to show you something, that's all.

Hiya, how are you?

All right.

I'm just going for a meeting.

What are you up to?

I've just been for my supervision.

Next one's my last.

Well done.

And are you still off the booze?

Yeah, except for when they stopped me seeing you.

Well, you're back on track now.

Sort of.

I kept going to my group.

And have you got used to Liz?

No, I'm bloody hater.

I've been seeing Katherine.

I'm really sorry about all that bother I caused you.

It's OK.

Did you tell Catherine about the necklace?

What necklace?

The one you stole from our house.

I didn't steal note from your house.

Well, how come you had it then?

I told the police.

I had to with you being on probation,

and I think they found your fingerprints in the house,

so I'm not sure what's going to happen.

Well, how come they haven't been round to my house, then?

I don't know.

Maybe they're saving it for the trial.

What trial?

When they've done their investigation.

There were loads of people coming in and out of your house.

That's because there was a party going on,

and they were invited.

Anyway, I gave it back to your wife.

Yeah, you said I'd given it to you, and that was a lie.

You wanted to cause trouble for me, didn't you?

But it's backfired on you, Tracy.

I don't give a shit.

I only took it because of what you did to me.

I didn't do anything, Tracy, and you know that.

If you say so.

I'm not getting into this.

I'm late for my meeting.

Tracy, go to the police station and withdraw your allegations.

Otherwise, you're going to look stupid in court.

Don't bother me.

Stephanie, sir.

You'll see.

See this shop here?

Which one?

Yeah, this one.

Empty shoe shop.

It's yours.

I bought the lease.

You can sell flowers.

It's got A1 planning.

It'll be a fantastic flower shop.

Of course, it'll need gutting and doing art first, but...

It's too late, Peter.

What are you talking about, too late?

I wanted a flower shop when I didn't have anything else in me life.

When the children were at school and you were...

Somewhere else.

Don't you understand it was to fill up the void?

Well, I don't feel empty anymore.

So you don't want the shop?

Don't need it.

Well, what am I going to do with it?

I have no idea.

That's bloody fantastic.

So everything's suddenly wonderful now you've left home,

is it?

Well, it is sort of.

So I was the void.

It was me who made you feel empty.

You did nothing to fill it, Peter, and neither did I.

Well, maybe I was too busy being a father and provider.

Yeah, maybe you were, but we forgot the important things.

We had some good times.

Yeah, we did.

And if I found out something was wrong,

I did everything I could, to put it right.

We've been on more holidays this last couple of years than we've...

Oh, it's not about going on holiday, Peter.

I felt lonely on some of those holidays. I bought you a bracelet and...

It's not about that either.

I've come with you to see that bloody therapist

and sat there embarrassed out of me skull.

I appreciate that.

And what for?

I've no bloody idea.

Cos things have just got worse, not better.

Well, that's not true.

Well, it is from where I'm standing.

Just look at us now.

Things are chaotic.

We're not even living under the same bloody roof.

She's helped me.

Would you take me back now, please?

Don't you even want to look inside?

Not really, no.

That's a surprise.

How long have you been sat here?

About ten minutes, that's all.

Don't I owe this honour?

I wanted to tell you that they've dropped the police investigation.

Oh, that's fantastic! When did you hear that?

My line manager rang and it seems I'll start work again on Monday.

Oh my God, Paul, I'm so pleased for you.

Let's just stop a minute.

What's the matter?

Just look at me.

Paul, look at me.

I really love you.

And I need you in my life.

And if we never had sex again,

I just don't want to be with you.

I want to come inside you.

Shut up and eat cornflakes.

You've drunk my drink.

I haven't. You drank it.

I'll go to the office and get you another bottle.

I've no money.

You don't need money.

I suppose you're not going to tell me where you're staying.

It's best that you don't know.

I see you've done a bit of shopping.

Just a change of clothes and some food.

So you're not in a hotel then?

I knew that anyway.

I've rung around most of them.

I've put another couple of grand in your account,

so you needn't go short.

You don't have to do that, Peter.

I don't want to.

I want to look for a job.

Doing what?

I don't know, anything.

I hope you find something.

Will you do me a favour?

It depends what it is.

Come round to the house.

Sarah's dying to see you.

Have a last family meal, and then we'll tell them together.

No, I don't know if I can do it.

You wanna pick up the rest of your things, won't you?

Yes, but...

Well, then.

We can go now.

Well, I'll see what I can do.

Maybe just for an hour or so.

It'd mean a lot to me, Hazel.

Hello, angel face.

Have you been home now?

Yeah, he's back from his course.

Where's Bohuska?

Upstairs having a little rest with Kieran.

Is she?

I'll go.

What are you doing here?

Olivia, remember?

All right, so you're back, then?

That's all right. Have you seen Bohuska?

She's with Fiona, ain't she?

Well, have you tried her out?

No. I will do, though.

Lord, you're back.

Nice arse.

They think I've been.

I said you'd gone to that health farm again, where you're Margaret.

We're back! Hello!

Sweetheart, you look wonderful.

We've had such a great time.

Amy went to Ayers Rock. It was incredible.

Oh, and we had a honeymoon massage in the hotel in Singapore. It was so beautiful.

Let your mother get in the house, love.

Did you get my emails?

No, Simon showed me a couple.

How was Bali?

Oh, we didn't go.

Oh, what a shame.

The holiday are booked for us after the wedding.

Yes, yes.

Well, your mother had promised to do some stuff at the hospice.

But we'll go later on in the year.

Oh, it's lovely to see you. I was so upset when you weren't here.

Oh, no, I'm sorry.

I just forgot which weekend you were due back and...

I've got you a present.

Oh, hello, love.

Oh, how are you?

I'm fine.

It's lovely to see you back.

It wasn't anything I said, was it?

Right, who wants a drink?

Oh, me. Red wine, please.

Oh, why don't we open that champagne?

No, we'll wait for Simon.

Then we'll pop a bottle when we're all together, eh?

There you go, Mum. This is for you, from me and Sven.

Oh, you shouldn't have bothered buying presents.

I wanted to.

Oh, that's lovely, that is.

Do you know, I got some red satin slippers and a picture to put on me wall.

Oh, Sarah.

It's pure Thai silk.

Oh, thank you, darling. Thanks, love.

I'll just go upstairs and try it on.

Is she all right?

I think she's just a bit overcome.

It's just...

...she seems...

She's been chilling out for a week.

What do you expect?

Who's there?

Has somebody picked the phone up?

No one in here.

She's gone all echoey.

I'm about ten minutes away.

What have you said to her?

She stays.

Looking after number one as usual, Dad.

I'm looking after the family.

I'll see you soon.

Cloud beginning to thicken. Outbreaks of rain.

with very strong north-easterly winds sweeping across the country, so a very damp and blustery night at night.

It's me, Hazel.

I'm sorry, I'm going to be a bit later than I thought.

I decided to get some of my things from the house.

Have you got it on yet?

Oh, sorry.

Oh, you're all right.

Erm, I've got to go. I'll talk to you later, Margaret.

Well, take your dress off then.

Where's your crucifix?

Oh, erm, it fell off earlier.

Yeah, it was in my purse.

I shall have to get a safety chain put on it.

Here it is.

So you had a good time, did you, love?

Oh, it was fantastic, Mum.

I remember it all my life.

And Sven was so sweet.

Do you know, I think I love him more now than I did before,

and I didn't think that was possible.

I'm really happy for you, love.

That's how it should be.

And I'm just so pleased that we had a chance

for a proper holiday together.

It might be the last one we get.

God, don't be silly. You're gonna travel loads.

I think I'm having a baby, Mum.

A baby?

Well, I think it must have been the first week we were in Thailand.

I started feeling queasy. I thought it was the food, but...

I missed a period, and my boobs have gone up a size.

We haven't told anyone yet. I wanted to tell you first.

But I thought you were going to wait.

I know, but the house will get finished eventually, and I'll get full maternity leave.

The only important thing is that we're both happy.

Nothing else really matters, does it?

She's really kicking off out there.

Your mother's back?

Yeah, her dad ran.

Don't say anything to her.

She'll tell us in her own good time.

Fish pie?

Sounds great.

What do you think, Nana?

Oh, sexy.

Yeah, I've always wanted one of these.

Oh, my parsley sauce.

Here, put them out.

Sure, Dad.

I need to talk to him.

Would you tell him I was at the hospital?

He was going mental.

I had to let him know.

So who was the friend?

Oh, good, you're home.

You look stunning, love.

Yeah, it's beautiful.

I'm the right person.

OK, let's get that champagne up, and now we're all here.

Don't bother for me.

It's not your father's fault, Simon.

Isn't it?

You know, Grim and I went on this tantra week to Turkey.

It was absolutely mind blowing.

Strictly for those in a fairly stable relationship, though.

Yeah, I think Paul and I will go on a walking holiday instead.

Must have been tough for the pair of you.

Well, if we put it this way, we'd have been divorced if we'd have been married.

What's funny?

Oh, we're just talking shop.

Top shop.

Might I know.

You got a top-up?

It's still going.

Yeah, go on then.

So what's the verdict on Kieran, then?

Oh, yeah.

They're definitely shangling again.

No doubt about it.

It's just the old pack.

I reckon he's besotted and she's loving the power.

I mean, look at her tonight.

Whose benefit is that for?

But she's trying her best with Brendan.

Don't you think we should put Kieran out of his misery?

No, no.

Let him sweat.

Yeah, it'll do him good.

Tracey Ellis has thrown herself off a flyover.

That's Poy. He was our guide. He was lovely, wasn't he?

He's got five kids, a wife, three goats and hardly any money.

He's got everything he wants, anyway.

It's a shame some people don't know when they're well off.

The dustbin's over.

I'm sorry about Philippa. Do you think you'll get back together?

No, it wasn't working.

It's best to be honest about these things.

good stringing her along.

But she told me you were planning on getting married next year.

No, I know where they'd be were.

I'm not going to be one of those sad bastards that get married and start having affairs.

What's the point of that?

What do you think, Dad?

I think you're right, son.

Cos you might do something like that in the heat of the moment and live to regret it.

Yeah, I bet.

And if Philippa found out, she'd be the one that got hurt.

And she's the innocent party.

She's done nothing wrong.

Sounds like you know what you're talking about.

Just common sense.

Well, I think you could get somebody better.

She has a face like a wet weekend.

I've got somebody.

Her name's Georgia.

And I'm going to marry her.

Only she don't know it yet.

Yeah, didn't I tell you?

There's something else and all.

Oh, Morris, you're snoring again.

I'll have to take him home, Peter.

I'll run you around in a minute.

But we've got something that we'd like to tell you first,

haven't we, Hazel?

How exciting.

More surprises.

What is it?

And you better pick that bin up.

We don't rubish all over the garden.

No, neither can I. What are we going to do?

I don't know.

Simon seems really angry.

I think he just wants us back together.

Of course, we don't have to say anything.

If you stay.

I can't beat it.

There's too much to do.

What was that?

Oh, bloody hell.

They only put it up today.

It's an electric cable for the new estate.

Touch it.

It may be live.

The wind must have brought it down.

Was that in the water?

Don't know.

Looks like a rubbish bag.

No, it can't be.

She'll get all wet.

It's dead.

The poor bloody thing's dead.

Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho,

ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.

Oh, what did I do?

Oh, Jesus, help me!

I never wanted to hurt anyone.

I never wanted to hurt you.

I have had affairs.

I know.

And I'm sorry, Mom.

I'm so sorry.

It's all right.

And so am I.

I can't do this.

Can't do what?

Look, there's been a full investigation and you've been found innocent.

I mean, if Katherine hadn't been here, we probably wouldn't even know yet.

Alona, I stepped over the line.

Yeah, well, we've been through that.

I was attracted to her and she knew it.

Of course she did.

I'm not fit to do my job.

Oh, don't be ridiculous.

Of course you are. You're upset, that's all.

I'm gonna hand in my resignation tomorrow.

Why? What good would that do?

Look, is this because she sprayed some words on a sheet or because she killed herself?

It's because I've lied. Well, I haven't told the whole truth. I kissed her.

Okay, big deal. So you were bloody stupid.

And I put my hand on her breast and between her legs and she gave me oral sex.

I never penetrated her but I wanted to. She was different and she wanted me.

And I didn't.

Basil, somebody at the door, love.

Yeah, well, that's only halfway through its cycle.

Just put them on the hardtop.

We can wash the glasses by hand.

Your husband reported a dead heron.

Tried to ring you.

Yeah, I got a message.

Come on, save your breath, will you?

I know what you're gonna say.

You were never gonna come back.

I was.

I swear on Our Lady's life.

I brought the bubble bath and everything.

Did you tell him about me?

You had sex with him, didn't you?

Well, you can teach him all the things I taught you.

Oh, don't say that.

Do you know what this feels like?

Yes, I do.

And I'm sorry.

Well, I suppose you're even now.

That's not why I did it.

Right, I'm off.

I might see you sometime.

What if I can help it?

The cable had snapped with the wind, they hadn't secured it properly.

Peter said it could have killed Horace as well as the heron.

Poor thing.

Lying there all limp and lifeless.

It was like all the

The anger in me just disappeared.

It didn't matter about the affairs or anything.

I looked at him, stood there holding that dead bird,

and I saw how tender he was.

You all right?

Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

It's just a cold.

So you felt connected to him again?

Yeah, sort of close and warm.

And I haven't felt like that for a long time.

So you opened up your heart to him, did you?

I realised he must have suffered.

I mean, not just because of the heron,

but because of everything we'd been through.

And I wanted to be with him in our bed, his body next to mine.

And I wanted to feel Peter's flesh on my flesh.

I wanted to look into his eyes.

And I wanted to feel him inside me.

I feel bad about Steve cos he helped me and I don't regret what I did.

What is it, love? What's the matter?

This is so unprofessional of me, I'm sorry.

Would you mind if we finished early?

Yes, of course.

My partner and I broke up yesterday.

Oh, I'm sorry, love.

It's difficult when you realise you made a mistake and the person that you love is not the person you think they are.

Yes, well, don't be in a hurry to chuck it away.

You might not have made a mistake.

It might all come right for you, like it did with me and Peter.

No, you and Peter are different.

You have enormous love for each other.

That's why you've come through the things you have.

I'm not sure we have that.

I don't suppose I'll be seeing you again,

unless you think I should.

Only if there's a problem.

Oh, I'm sorted now, thanks to you.

You sorted yourself out.

I couldn't have done it without you, believe me.

Oh, thanks for everything.

And I really hope things work out for you.

Don't worry, I made a strong stop.

What's up?

Nothing. I love you. That's all.
