[Eddie] Cheers on six months.

-[glasses clink]

-Can we get the bill, please?

-Yeah.

Cheers.

Whoa. What are you doing?

I'm getting this.

-Happy anniversary.

-Aww.

Not that you ate much.

Bit of a waste, really.

I just got a bit

of a dodgy stomach.

Here you go.

Everything all right for you?

Yeah, lovely, thanks.

-[card machine beeps]

-Hope to see you again.

What?

Should we go?

[soft keyboard music plays]

[footsteps]

-Do you know that waitress?

-No.

-She gave me her number though.

-What?

Yeah, on the receipt.

Oh my God, that bitch.

Calm down.

-Thrown it away.

-No, sorry,

She could clearly see

we were together.

-I feel like going back in there

-Oh leave it.

She's not my type anyway.

That is not

what you're meant to say.

Well, tell me

what I'm meant to say.

That, you've

only got eyes for me,

and I'm the best girlfriend

in the world.

-I've only got eyes for you.

-Mm-hmm.

What was the next bit?

-So annoying.

[soft music plays]

[upbeat music plays]

What the?

-Are you okay?

-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

-Oi! The f*ck are you doing?

-Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

-I've gotta tell you something.

-What?

It's all kicking off.

The TV cameras are at home.

Mate, I think

you've got the show.

No way!

I can't believe it now.

Babe, I'm in!

Listen, yeah,

whole film crew is at home.

-Dad is loving it.

-You're joking.

And who's in our

kitchen having tea with mum?

-Only Mickey Martell..

-Shut up.

Woooh!

[laughing]

Okay, okay, so what's the plan?

What's the plan?

Right, me and

you, we've gotta drive back

-like we've been out.

-Yeah?

You gotta act like you didn't

know nothing was happeni..

-You gotta act surprised, yeah?

-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And then Mickey is gonna

tell you the news on camera.

Oh man, I can't believe this!

-Babe, can you believe this?

-What show is it?

Come on, come on, let's go, bro.

[laughing]

-Oh, wait,

she can't come with us.

Nah, bro, they just

want me and you in the car.

Babe?

Ah that's okay,

I'll walk, you go.

You sure?

-Come on bro.

-Yeah.

[upbeat electronic music plays]

It doesn't matter

because we are here

to meet an unsuspecting

housemate, shhh.

-Eddie!

-[all cheering]

Come in, come in beautiful.

I'm not coping that

Thank you to everyone

who voted, I love you all.

We have got a full-on sexy cast

You lucky boy, you just wait!

Bring it on! Yeah!

[Cheering echoes away]

[sad piano music plays]

-[muffled cheering]

-Love on the Rocks baby!

You're gonna be

packing a bag next month

and we're gonna be at

the Love and the Rocks villa

in Hawaii!

[cheering]

[upbeat music plays]

[cheering]

Hawaii?

Go on my son!

[cheering]

So tell me, what can our viewers

expect from Mr. Eddie Reynolds?

Oh, I'm going in to win mate!

-[cheering and clapping]

-I Look good

Did you see my face

when the door opens?

I was acting well

shocked, weren't I, Mum?

I know, darling,

you deserve an Oscar.

I think she's

nice, that Mickey Martell,

lovely girl, a bit loud.

-Hasn't she got

an eye for the ladies?

I mean, in show business

nobody's straight.

-You better watch out.

-Shut up, Nan.

Look, let's watch it again.

Actually, Eddie, I'm gonna

need to go in a minute.

I've got work in the morning.

Oh. he's excited, love.

You can watch it one more time.

Look at him.

You're not gonna sleep

tonight, you ya? Oh love him!

No, yeah, yeah, yeah,

come on, I'll drop you back.

I can get an Uber if

you want to stay and celebrate.

Good idea.

No, it's okay,

I'll drop you back.

-Yeah, but you've

been drinking, so.

Yeah, I've only had

a couple, I'm fine to drive.

[Dad] Hello?

Oh, hello?

Yeah, hold on.

Aunty Karen,

seeing you on the telly.

-[laughing] Hold that

-Hello Karen!

Helloo!!

Look, it's fine,

I'm just gonna get an Uber.

Feel a bit under

the weather anyway so.

No, I'll just do this, look,

I'll be two minutes.

-Go wait in the car, yeah?

-Thanks. Bye.

Bye!

Aunty Karen.

-All right?

-Yeah.

What's up?

Nothing, just,

yeah, nothing, doesn't matter.

Are you not happy for me?

Yeah, of course I am.

You don't seem it.

It's 'Love on the Rocks', Eddie.

The villa is for single people.

Well, yeah, but we

weren't together when I applied.

No, I know.

Why didn't you tell me?

I didn't think I'd get in.

Sure.

Well where does that leave me?

Like, where does that leave us?

You're trying to ruin my night.

No, I'm not, I'm not, I just,

I just don't wanna

watch you on TV every night

getting with

another girl, or girls.

I don't know how you

expect me to react.

How would you feel

if it were me?

I'd expect you

to be happy for me.

I'm gonna be famous, aren't I?

Can you just take me home?

Lauren.

Please.

[car starts]

Do you know what,

what do they do next then?

Far too young to be

serious about a girl like that.

She's gonna get in the

way of his dreams, that one.

[Nan] She seems

nice enough to me.

I met your father when I was 18.

Oh, don't worry about that.

They won't last long.

Not once he's in

that villa, eh, Dad?

Yeah, he's gone on

the TV show as a single man,

that's the whole point.

Oh, he's gonna

be famous, my boy.

I can't believe it,

he's gonna be a star.

Do you think I'm

gonna be a star, mum?

No.

He better behave

himself, I'll say that.

I wouldn't count on it.

I just wish he

wasn't tangled up with her,

he doesn't need it.

Oh, leave it alone now.

You're like a

dog with a bone, you.

He'll have to

call it off with her, won't he?

He'll find someone

better in there, anyway.

Okay, bye.

[sombre music plays]

[phone pings]

[cameras clicking]

Good job, good job.

Nice, one, boys.

Chuck us a wheely

[photographers cheering]

Mum, mum, you seen outside?

I know, darling,

They've been there all day.

The phone hasn't

stopped ringing, either.

It's been bedlam at that gate.

They even wanted photos of me!

Now, Wes, your brother

will be back soon,

go upstairs and get

changed into something nice,

in case they want to

interview you okay?

-Off you go.

-Yeah.

-Oh, and brush your hair.

-All right.

For the reports of last month,

please do have it on

my desk by the end of today.

I had a meeting with the board,

and they are very,

very impressed, I must say.

Just a couple notes

on my end of the tweaks in--

Sorry, guys, one sec.

Yeah, I had a meeting

with the board,

and they are impressed,

they are very impressed.

I think there's just a

couple tweaks in the strategy.

[toilet flushes]

What?

You tell me.

Oh, it's nothing, I think i've

got a bit of food poisoning.

I've watched you

run in and out of here,

every day this week.

You're pregnant.

Oh my God, don't be ridiculous.

Have you done a test?

No, I don't need to,

I'm not pregnant.

I think you should take a test.

-[car horn beeps]

-He's on his way back.

Oh, oh!

Eddie, Eddie, Eddie

Eddie please.

Hello, hello!

Never done one of these before.

You're lucky, I've lost

count of how many I've done.

It's easy, you just

go in and pee on it.

Go on.

-Alright mum.

-Hello, darling.

Oh, I'm so proud of

you, I really are.

Come on Eddie

I'll make you a cup of tea.

They love me.

-They love you, I love you.

-Come on.

I'll make us a cup of tea.

[soft music plays]

A bit of heather for you love?

A bit of luck for you.

That's for you, that is.

What do you got for me?

Oh, sorry, I don't carry change.

-I never have it.

-You sure, love?

Nothing at all?

Honest, I would.

Sorry, you can take it back.

No, my love, you keep that.

So sad.

You look after yourself, love.

[sniffling]

Do you mind if I get a selfie?

Yeah, yeah, man, go for it.

-Hey nice idea, nice one mate

-Good to see ya.

Cheers, yeah.

All right?

Er, no.

I've got something to tell you.

-Have you told your mum?

-No.

-I wanted to tell you first.

-Don't tell her.

-What?

-And don't tell

-But why?

-Because they

-What if I wanted to keep it?

-It's not an option.

-Eddie.

-Babe.

Seriously?

-We can't have a kid.

-No, I know.

This would ruin every.

-This would ruin my TV career.

-Okay.

But can you just

put that aside for a minute?

No, I can't.

-I can't, this is major.

-I know.

I've got something

growing inside me.

How did this happen?

You know, I actually had

something to say to you today

and this has f*cked it all up.

-Oh, I am sorry.

-No, I didn't mean.

All right, listen.

The producers called me today.

Mum told them I was

seeing you and that

and they've asked me

to keep it on the down low

whilst the show's on the air.

That's just until it's all over.

A few months.

It's a game, isn't it?

Oh, I get it, you need

to appear single, right?

-Yeah.

-So we're breaking up?

-No, no, no.

We just need to pretend.

Pretend like we're not together.

You understand, I've

got to start thinking, like,

like what's the best thing

for 'Eddie Reynolds' to do?

-You know what I mean?

-Third person.

Wow, now I understand.

Oh don't be like that.

No, don't worry

about the down low.

We can call it off.

It's fine.

Wait.

Are you gonna tell

your mum about the other thing?

Stop slamming things about.

Oi, I'm talking to you.

Calm it down.

Elaine, come and

speak to your son.

I don't need to speak to her.

I just wanna be left alone.

I'll never understand

you, you know.

-Nothing's ever

good enough, is it?

Most boys your

age will be over the moon

to get on that

'Love on the Rocks',

-and you're still not happy.

-It's not about that.

-You don't understand anything

-What is it about then?

Don't tell me is it a girl?

-Cause I know a thing or two.

-Dad.

There's not much

about women I don't know.

-For f*ck's sake.

-Hang on, come here,

-Me and your mum

have been talking.

[Dad] Wait a minute.

You're very young,

and you don't know everything.

You think you do, but you don't.

This TV show, it could be

the making of you, son.

You've seen how well

those other lads have

Money, fame, cars,

clothes, holidays.

.Women.

You don't need a girlfriend

right now to get in the way

Do you?

-It's over anyway.

-What?

I said it's over anyway.

Don't need to say all this.

All right.

Well, that's that

then, isn't it?

Oh, I'm going to start

your tea now, love, all right?

What are we having?

What would you like?

I'll make you something nice.

Unbelievable.

-Hello, am I invisible here?

-Sadly not.

I don't want anything, Mum.

Oh, don't be silly, I'll

make you something you like.

And what about me?

You'll get what you're given.

Remember what I said.

You don't need a woman

getting in the way.

Oi, you.

You know what,

Dad, you're right.

-I'm single now.

-Yes.

-That's it.

-It's all about me.

Yes.

Nothing's going to hold

me back from Love on the R..

-That's it. That's it.

-Nothing

I'm going to get as much out

of this as I can, you watch me.

It's right, mate.

So what about Laurel?

-Lauren!

-Lauren.

-It's over.

-Oh.

No, we're growing apart.

Just don't. don't

ask me about her again.

Okay?

See? One word from me.

Yes, love, you smashed it.

Hi.

How was work, love?

All right, yeah, it was

okay. I'm just going to bed.

What's the matter

with your face?

You've been crying?

No.

What is it, love?

What's the matter?

Come on. Come and sit down.

Oh, darling, don't cry.

-It's him again, isn't it?

-No.

Mum, I swear to

God I'm going to punch him.

I'm so going to punch him.

-What have you done this time?

-Nothing.

-Has he hurt you?

-No.

I swear down

someone needs to buss him up.

Can you just leave it, please?

Look, I don't need

my little sister to

I'm finished anyway.

-We ended it today.

-Yes!

I'm going to get the boys, yeah?

I'm going to tell them

to go down to his work, yeah?

Teach him a f*cking lesson.

Rochelle, you are going

to do no such thing and do not

Look, it's not going to work

with him going on

He can't have a girlfriend

and be on the show, can he?

So I'm going to get every

single person I know

every single person

from gymnastics,

every single person I

meet on the f*cking street.

-So what are

they going to do?

f*cking. two days, two days

and he'd be out of that villa.

Can you just leave it, please?

It's going to be my mission,

night and day to

That number is on speed dial.

Okay, that's enough.

Can you just calm down?

I'm going to get my dad, yeah?

Tell his mates to,

like, beat him up or something.

I think we both know our

dad's are useless

-That's it.

-[Lauren laughing]

Men are dickheads.

Especially your fathers.

Good job I ain't into men, then.

-Yeah, I wish I wasn't.

-And me.

Go put the kettle on, love.

Okay.

Now, while your

bodyguard's not here.

Is there anything

you need to tell me?

-No.

-Be honest.

It's just run its course.

You're sure now?

Yeah.

I promise.

Come here.

[piano note echoes]

[Slow piano plays]

Hello.

Would you like to

pop yourself down on the bed?

[phone buzzes]

[phone buzzes]

Hello?

Babe, It's me.

It's late. What do you want?

Babe I'm devastated

about today, aren't I?

Wait, how did you find out?

I don't know, some

girl called me, didn't they?

I'm gutted.

I thought it was

what you wanted.

What?

This would have changed

my life. How can you say that?

Eddie.

I could have done it, you know.

I'd have been so good.

I would have smashed it.

Why didn't you call me earlier?

I've been drinking haven't I.

-Can I come round?

-It's late.

Please.

I won't drive.

I'll. I'll walk over.

I just want to hug you.

Okay.

Why, babe?

I've missed you.

It's been mad.

I know. Same.

We've got a lot

to talk about, though.

Yeah, not tonight.

Let's just.

-Let's just stay

like this and not talk.

I'm really sore.

Why, what's up?

Well, erm.

Because of what

I had done today.

What did you have done?

Why are you here?

-Well, you said

I could come over.

So, wait, what

were you upset about?

You know why.

It's all over the news that.

They've kicked me off the

show before I've even started.

They found out

I had a previous conviction.

And then.

I'm done.

They've replaced me.

It's shit.

You knew that, didn't you?

Babe?

Yeah, yeah, I did.

It's shit.

Sorry.

The best thing to

come out of it though,

is that we can be together now.

Do us a tea, love.

You'll have to wait a minute.

I'm telling you, Mart,

I'm not going to let this go.

Oh, no.

That TV company,

they've crossed

They've broken that boy.

You don't do that to a kid.

You don't do that to my kid.

He's not a kid. He's

an adult. You'll get over it.

Building him up like that.

Putting him on the telly

and then humiliating

It's an absolute travesty,

and someone

You got the paper?

Oh, no way.

Papers are banned in this

house until it all blows over.

I am not having

him upset by anything else.

I tell you Mart,

they're going to regret this.

I bet they're

sh1tting themselves.

That smug bitch Martell

waltzing in here

making out our son's

going to be a star.

It's all fake, isn't it?

She's a fake.

A load of shit.

Any chance of that tea?

Oh, I thought it might be too

much to expect

You know what?

I'm like a single parent

in this house.

Oh, here we go,

mum to the rescue.

Tell me this.

Did it help

all those times you went

racing up to the

school fighting his battles? Eh?

Constant bloody showdowns

with teachers and school kids.

Did you ever think he

might be the one to blame?

Oh, f*ck off.

One woman army.

I'm his mother. I'm

supposed to protect him.

What he needs

is to toughen up a bit.

You've spoiled him

all his bloody life.

Oh, I've heard all this.

Shit, things happen, and he's

going to have to learn

God help him if

anything serious went wrong.

He'd fall apart.

Oh, hello, darling.

Have you been out all night?

You okay?

But sit down. I'll

make you a cup of tea, yeah?

Where have you been?

-You stink of booze.

-Dad.

Leave him, please.

I was at Lauren's.

Huh? Is that all back on now?

Mum. do you think they might

change their minds

Oh, yeah. Don't you worry son.

I'm calling them today.

Believe me,

Eddie, let me explain

something to you.

A dr*gs conviction

doesn't look good.

I told you this.

Especially when they want

people to be squeaky clean

For f*ck's sake.

I told you this would

come back to haunt you didn'..

That's all history, Martin.

He said he was sorry.

It weren't his

fault anyway, was it, love?

He told you what happened.

The police didn't believe

him, did they?

Shut up, Dad!

No, never your fault,

but them's the facts.

Leave it, please Martin.

You can see the boy's upset.

When you start taking some

responsibility, maybe your life

[phone dings]

f*ck.

This is bullshit!

-All right?

-Get out, Wes.

I'm sorry about what happened.

About the show and that.

Yeah, I don't want

to talk about it.

Just close the door.

So many people

came up to me yesterday

It was mad.

Yer an' I hope

you told them to f*ck off.

Yeah, of course.

They don't know shit.

Bro, look.

I know you said you'd

take me to Dubai after

I just want to say,

yeah, that I don't care

It don't matter.

I'm not bothered.

I know you won't

have the money now.

But you know you said

about me having your bedroom,

cos you're

gonna buy a new house.

Does that still stand?

[chuckles]

[phone dings]

[pensive electronic music plays]

Anyway, here for you, bro.

Not going in work again today?

I've just got cramps.

You think staying up

all night with that boy helped?

That would be a hard no.

OK, we were just talking.

-Mm hmm.

-OK, sis.

What's he doing

back here anyway?

-I thought you broke your heart?

-OK mum please.

You know best.

Far be it for me to

get involved in your love life.

-Yeah, amen.

-What?

Just for the record,

if Eddie is around,

I am getting involved

in your love life.

-Rochelle!

-Oh, what?

Right, seeing as

you're both home.

you can help me take all

this to the post office later.

I can't. I've got that thing.

Yeah, Mum, I'm in

pain. I need to lie down.

Right.

So, Eddie's back

on the scene then, is he?

How long for

this time, I wonder?

OK, you just said you

weren't going to get involved.

-Your as bad as her.

-Darling, I'm concerned for you.

You've moped around this

house ever since he dumped you.

He didn't dump me. I left him.

-He's made you miserable.

-Truth!

I don't want you to waste

your life on someone like him.

-You can do better than that.

-OK, Mum,

Look at your father.

-I wish my mother had warned me.

-Have you taken anything for it?

-Yes, I'm just waiting

I only say these

things 'cos I love you.

I want you to be happy.

I get a bad feeling

from that boy.

I always have, you know that.

When I see

the two of you together.

I don't know, I get

this awful feeling come over me.

-Oh mum!

-Well your sister hates him too.

I f*cking hate him, he's a d*ck.

OK, Mum, I love him, all right?

And I know he's not perfect,

but I know what I'm doing.

I know you only say this

stuff because you care,

[train horn hoots]

It's just up here.

-What do you think?

-So nice

This is my favourite place.

-Yeah?

-Really?

What do you mean really?

[laughing]

There's one.

[laughing]

That's great.

Thank you.

[sheep baas]

[slow piano plays]

[laughing]

When can we get married?

-You proposing?

-Well, not yet.

Mmm, why not?

Have you seen

the state of this path?

I ain't kneeling down

in this, I'll ruin my jeans.

Oh, OK, we'll have

to wait to get married then.

What about kids?

What about them?

Well, how many do you want?

I don't want to talk about kids.

Why not?

Cos you never

mentioned the one we nearly had.

-I had an abortion, Eddie.

-Yeah, I know.

You wanted me to, didn't you?

Yeah, I did, but.

You know, I just tried to

pretend like it didn't happen.

And then.

You never brought it up, so.

.neither did I.

-Yeah, it was easier.

-Not for me.

-Was it awful?

-Yeah.

.and no.

I felt a bit alone.

I think that

was the worst thing.

One minute you're aware

of this extra thing inside you.

And then all

of a sudden it's gone.

I missed it. I missed you.

I won't leave you

like that again.

I promise.

If you promise

never to leave me.

OK?

So I'm stuck with you forever.

Is that what you're saying?

Afraid so.

What's this?

[laughing]

[Squealing and laughing]

-You know we only

get an hour, right?

It's been so chaotic

today. I haven't had a minute.

-So where are we going?

-Do you want to try

Lead the way.

-Let's go somewhere else.

-What? Why?

I just know somewhere better.

Yeah, but we've

only just got here.

-What do I do?

-Just go.

He is not worth it. Come on.

Eddie?

-Lauren.

-Who is this?

-Excuse me?

-Wait.

-Eddie!

-Look, she's just a.friend.

-What? I thought you

broke up with her.

-Look I can explain.

-Oh seriously?

No, don't go.

I don't want to interrupt.

-Look, you're not inter--

-Wait. I know you.

-Lauren.

-The waitress.

You are unbelievable.

You know, just about everyone

warned me

I'm an idiot.

I just want to go.

You are welcome to him!

I'm done.

Lauren, wait.

Why don't you

leave that girl alone?

She's too good for you.

I said leave her be this time.

You had your chance, mate

[sad music plays]

[crowd cheering]

[silence]

[silence]

[cheering]

[Dad] Hey, make a wish.

[cheering]

Are you all right, love?

Everything okay at work?

Yeah, yeah, fine.

Me and mum we've made all your

favourites tonight, haven't we?

And all your presents

are through there,

but your dad's got

something for you first.

Let's go!

[excited chatter]

-[cheering]

-[engine sounds]

Bro come and look!

Well. what do you

reckon son? Will it do? Eh?

It's got top of the range

speakers, Sat Nav.

hardly any miles on the clock.

Dad said I

can drive it sometimes.

Oi, no I didn't.

What'd you think, love?

Why did you buy me a car?

Don't be like that, love.

You need a car.

I'll have it

if you don't want it.

Yeah, you can have it.

I don't want it.

He said I could have it, Dad.

Well, that's bloody

ungrateful if you ask me.

Mother.

I'll speak to him.

[sniffles]

I know you're tired

from work, darling,

but just take the car

out for a little spin later

with your dad and Wes, yeah?

It means so much to him.

I can't, Mum.

Oh your Nan's

got you a lovely present.

You wait till you see it.

I don't. want anything.

Shouldn't have done this.

Made all this fuss.

But it's your birthday.

-Is this about that girl?

-Lauren.

Eddie. things

don't always work out the way

we think they will,

but we've got to move on.

Feeling sorry for yourself

every day isn't gonna help.

-But I miss her, mum.

-Oh, I know you do, darling,

but there's loads

of girls out there

who'd jump at the chance

of being with a

Come on, let's go

and have some tea

and open your presents, yeah?

Come on, love.

I'll be there in a minute.

Okay.

Ooh.

[sniffs]

[people chattering]

Oh, do you remember?

Do you remember!

The chimpanzee

threw shit at him!

[Laughing]

Oh, I do remember

Oh, that was funny.

Oh, that was so funny.

[Dad] Little bleeder.

Oh, do you know.

[Mum] Oh a lovely day

that. I loved it.

-I remember that.

-Oh I miss those days.

[Dramatic music plays]

[Thunder rumbling]

[speaking from TV]

Your car went down well then.

[people chattering on TV]

I must say, if my parents

had given me a car at that age,

I wouldn't have

reacted like that.

All right, Mum, give it a rest.

-Did he even say thank you?

-Mum.

You can't help but

think about all those kids

who'd have no one

to buy 'em a car.

Mum, that's enough, please.

I'm trying to watch this.

Wesley, turn it up.

[on TV] Dan, Helen's husband

and brother, I think. Can we go.

Far be it from me to tell

you how to bring your kids up.

But good manners

cost nothing, you know.

-Mart, can you

take her home, please?

-No, now, Mart.

-Oh, you are a difficult woman.

Yeah, because

I had a good teacher.

Right, that's me.

Wesley, would you

get my bag, love?

He's a lovely boy, that one.

Never given us any

trouble, whereas him.

Don't mum,

I'm warning you, just don't.

Martin.

Right, I'm ready.

-[TV advert music]

-I'm ready.

[on TV] "People,

pack your sun tan lotion"

[on TV] "The countdown is on."

[on TV] "Strap yourself in,

the TV event of the year"

[on TV] "is heading your way."

Turn that shit off, Wes.

I don't want that

programme on this house.

Another thing he

managed to screw up, eh?

That wasn't his fault!

No, no, it never is, is it?

Come on, take me home, Mart.

Bye, Wesley.

I'll leave the

hug goodbye if that's okay.

Yeah, yeah,

don't worry yourself.

[sighing]

[sombre music plays]

Can I put the TV back on, then?

[speaking on TV]

[phone buzzing]

Eddie Reynolds?

Yes?

Hi, Eddie.

Now, you don't know me,

but I'm from DTV.

I'm Naomi.

Hi.

Now, you might

remember we were in contact

regarding a TV show,

Love on the Rocks?

-Yeah, I remember.

-Awesome.

Well, I hope you

don't mind me calling,

but we've been having

some discussions

Oh, yeah?

Yeah, and we've been

watching your

and to cut to the chase,

we all think it's pretty unfair

what happened to you

and we've all had

and I'm pleased to say

I've got some good news for you.

We would love to invite you

back onto the show this year.

Sort of pick up

where we left off.

[sombre music]

Hello?

Not interested.

Pardon?

I said I'm not interested.

Oh, okay, erm.

May I ask why?

Because I couldn't

do that to my girlfriend.

I understand, no, sure.

Bad timing for us, I mean.

Listen, I'm gonna

leave you my number

just in case

your situation changes

-and you wanna reconsider?

-I won't.

Thanks for calling.

Okay, well, I--

[phone beeps]

Where's Mum and Dad?

Wes?

Wes!

What?

-Where's Mum and Dad?

-Gone round Nan's.

You wanna play?

-No.

-Oh, come on,

I'm going out too.

What?

Well can Jake and Brad

come round then?

Do what you want.

Oi, boys, do you hear that?

Free house, get over here now.

[sombre music plays]

[doorbell rings]

Is Wes here?

Wes!

Your brother's well moody, man?

Yes, bro, come in.

I hear what your saying.

[train rattles]

[train horn]

So is this a cry for help stunt?

Or are you

actually serious about doing it?

I'm serious.

No, you're not.

-How did you know I'd be here?

-Cause you're so predictable.

-This is best for everyone.

-You're so dramatic.

Can you imagine the mess?

I'd feel sorry for the people

that have to clean up after you.

It's not funny, you know.

I've come all this way

to see you

and now you're saying

you're gonna jump.

Be with me then.

I can't make it without you.

You can't keep

asking me to come back.

-It's not fair.

-Yeah, I know.

Can we just talk for a bit?

Like we used to.

Look, I won't put

any pressure on you.

It's just to talk.

Please.

Were you gonna get down then?

Will you stay with me for a bit?

[dramatic music swells]

Can I see you again?

I thought we'd discussed this?

We've had a nice

time tonight, haven't we?

-Yeah, but--

-I loves talking to you.

But we didn't talk

about us, did we?

How not perfect it was,

-how you hurt me.

-I was different then.

I understand now.

I've grown up.

I just talked you

down off a bridge.

Thank you.

Why were you wearing

your best clothes?

I don't know.

I know I don't deserve you.

Good night, Eddie.

You didn't answer my question.

Can I see you again?

I'll see you around.

[soft piano music plays]

[door closes]

Eddie, love?

Yeah?

Can you come in here, please?

Wes, out you go.

-Oh, Mum.

-Do as you're told, out.

Hello, love.

Come and sit down.

So, Wes seems to think

you've been on a date tonight.

Yes, actually, I have.

That's nice, love.

Anyone we know?

All right, all right,

we're just pleased

you're moving on with

your life, aren't we, Mart?

Can I go now?

Mum's got something to ask you.

So, I've had a call

from DTV today.

They want you to appear on

this year's Love on the Rocks.

Yeah, so?

Why didn't you tell us?

Because I'm not doing it.

There's nothing to talk about.

But why, love?

You were really

excited about it last time.

It could open

so many doors for you.

Please, leave it.

I'm not doing that show.

I couldn't do it to Lauren.

What?

What's Lauren got to do with it?

This conversation's over.

I'm going to bed.

-You!

-What the f*ck have I done?

[sighs]

[soft piano music plays]

I reckon my granddad's

up there, you know?

In the stars?

Or, in heaven.

At least I hope he is.

I haven't made him proud have I?

And yet, he was so proud

of me when I was growing up.

He used to tell all

his mates down the Legion

that I was going to be rich

because I was the

smart one in the family.

[Giggling]

You know, Wes wasn't

that close to him, but.

I loved him.

You know, he was

such good company.

More of a dad to me than my dad.

Ever since he died,

all I've done is let him down.

I let you down too, didn't I?

It doesn't matter anymore.

It does to me.

I'm sorry, Lauren.

I'm gonna be a better person.

That's all I want.

You know, Mum and Dad

bought me a car for my 21st.

I don't want it though.

I don't deserve it.

That's just.

I think you need to move on.

You need to start

thinking about the future.

Maybe we shouldn't

meet like this any more.

I don't think it's helping.

I haven't told

anyone we're meeting like this.

You know, our parents

wouldn't understand anyway.

It can be our secret.

Just don't

leave me again, Lauren.

I don't know what I'd do.

Oh. It's him.

Oh, you're late tonight, love.

How was work?

Yeah, it's fine.

Sit yourself down,

we've saved you some dinner.

Dad, can I start

doing lessons in Eddie's car?

-No.

-But he's not using it.

Wes, your dad said no,

It's Eddie's car.

He's gonna wanna drive it soon.

I won't.

I told you.

It's lovely, that car, you know.

Your granddad

would have loved it.

Are you, um,

are you out tonight?

-Maybe.

-Can I come?

No

Is it a date?

[doorbell rings]

Wes, go and get the door.

Mum, I don't know who it is.

It's a lady.

Oh.

Oh, hello love. Come in.

Oh, what a lovely surprise.

Everyone, this is Marsha.

Oh, hello, love.

Marsha's Colleen's

daughter from the tennis club.

Oh, yeah.

How is your mum?

She's fine, thanks.

Eddie. Say hello.

Hello.

[Clears throat]

Oh, yes.

Yes, it's my television

programme on now.

Please excuse me.

Lovely to meet you, love.

Wes, come and

help us in the garage.

-What? No.

-Wesley.

Can I, um, can I

get you a drink, Marsha?

Oh, just some water, thanks.

A glass of water.

There you go.

-Thank you.

-All right, darling, okay.

Marsha's training to be

a, what's it called again, love?

-Physiotherapist.

-Physiotherapist,

Are you at college then?

Uni.

Oh, Eddie didn't want

to go to Uni.

He wanted to earn his own money,

start saving and that,

didn't you, love?

-Where do you work?

-Mum!

What are you doing?

-What?

-What's this about?

Why have you

bought this girl here?

Calm down, love.

Colleen and I just

thought you two should meet.

You've got

a lot in common.

You shouldn't have done that.

I should get going, actually.

No, no, hang on a sec, love.

Eddie, don't be like that.

Look, I'm sorry

she made you come around.

My mum seems to forget

that I'm in love with someone

and that's not gonna change.

I better get going,

Mrs. Reynolds.

I'll see you about, love.

[Slams table]

-Well, was she a nice girl?

-Babe.

Was she?

Well, yeah, she was pretty,

but, you know, she's not--

Well, she might be good for you.

What?

Why would I care? I've got

you, I don't need anyone else.

But you haven't got me.

Come on.

What do you mean?

Don't, don't say that.

-I'll never meet

anyone like you.

-No! We're meant to be together.

-Obviously we weren't.

-I can't keep seeing

you like this.

-Never see me again?

-Oh, Eddie.

-My life's over.

-No.

No, you can't say

that to me, that's not fair.

But we loved each other, right?

-Please.

-You still wear my necklace?

-I shouldn't wear them any more.

-No.

You need to let me go.

For me.

You can't have

loved me to say that.

It's because I love you.

Goodbye, Eddie.

[phone ringing]

Hello.

Hi, is that the

sales department?

Yes, how may I help?

Can I speak to Lauren, please?

Lauren?

Who is this, please?

Um, it's, uh.

Is this Eddie Reynolds?

Yeah.

Okay, you listen to me.

You do not phone here again.

Do you hear me?

You're sick and you need help.

Look I just wanna talk to her.

She must have

changed her number.

Eddie, this is enough.

Look please, I just--

Don't phone this office again.

This is harassment!

[phone slams]

[slow piano plays]

No, no, it's okay, thanks.

Thanks for checking.

Can you give me a call

when he gets there, please?

Okay, thanks very much.

Bye, bye.

Where's your brother?

-How would I know?

-Well his car's

-So?

-What's all the fuss?

Eddie's taken his car, Mum.

-Taken it where?

-I don't know, do I?

Come in.

Hi, Jenny.

Please meet Inspector Marston.

-Hi.

-Hello.

-Please sit.

-Oh, lovely.

He's come to hear

your complaint today.

Thank you for coming.

It's nice to meet you.

So, just to briefly explain

why we've asked you to meet us.

We've been receiving

calls here to the office

from a young man

called Edward Reynolds.

And at first, probably due

to the fact that we were busy,

we just ignored it.

But now, the calls

are becoming more frequent.

I see.

Jenny can supply you

with more context

as she has intercepted

the majority of the calls.

How long has this been going on?

Um, I'd say five months or so.

So he's pretty persistent,

this chap?

You could say that.

Our priority is to

protect our staff members

through all communications.

So we need this matter concluded

for their safety and well-being.

Of course.

Okay, Jenny,

let's start at the beginning.

[Train passing]

[dramatic music plays]

He just came

bursting into the office.

-No, no, no, no, no, no.

-Lauren!

-Eddie!

-Like he owned the place.

Eddie, get out!

-Eddie, get out!

-No, you give me

Such an arrogant.

Lauren and I had

caught him cheating

like five minutes earlier.

Then he turns up

full of bullshit excuses.

[dramatic music

drowns out dialogue]

I told him she

didn't want to speak to him,

but he wouldn't have it.

He just kept begging for

her to come outside for a chat.

In the end,

one of my male colleagues

had to literally

remove him from the office.

Lauren, she was so embarrassed.

He caused a massive scene.

I saw this happen,

but so did most of the office.

Go on.

We had a staff

party booked that night in town.

It had been planned for ages.

Lauren didn't want to

come after what had happened,

but we all begged her so she

could take her mind off of it.

And this was March 18th, right?

Yeah.

And what happened next?

[dramatic music plays]

So we all get

to the bar that night,

and Eddie's there, isn't he?

Edward Reynolds?

Yeah.

But Lauren's a bit

shaken by it all

and doesn't want another scene.

[people chattering]

I don't know what he said,

but he clearly managed

to turn on the sweet talk

and they're acting all in

love like nothing had happened.

So I followed her to the toilet.

To ask her what was going on,

I was just so annoyed for her.

He was always

treating her so badly.

She kept saying

she's fine and just to leave it

and that he had

explained it all.

[sighs]

-What's that?

-Nothing.

Um.has anyone heard anything?

-Why are we worrying? He's fine.

-He's not fine, Martin.

There's something wrong.

I can feel it.

Wesley!

Wes!

-What?

-Your brother's missing.

I want you to go round

all the places he could be,

check his mates'

houses, see if he's there.

He don't really see

no one no more.

Just go and look

for me, please, Wesley.

And watch the road.

[sighs]

Don't get yourself

in a state, love.

He can't be far.

There's something wrong,

I'm telling you.

[Melancholy music plays]

[no dialogue]

[no dialogue]

f*cked it!

They told you to wear this.

Stand here, smile now.

Look up.

Find your light.

Look to the light.

Well, I'm looking.

I'm looking!

You want me?

You don't want me?

I'm on the show.

No, I'm not.

And you can't even have a baby.

It doesn't mean

anything, does it?

None of it does.

It never did.

I couldn't hold any

of it in my hand, could I?

[laughing]

f*ck you!

[sombre music plays]

Granddad?

I'm sorry.

Give me one reason to stay here.

Because I can't think of any.

I f*cked it.

I totally f*cked it!

[phone ringing]

[grunts]

[grunts]

[screaming]

[Train horn honks]

[Wes] Don't worry Nan.

I'll find him.

[soft piano music plays]

You're absolutely unbelievable.

So I've been told.

I've had to pick up the pieces

one too many times after..

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Why can't you just

leave her alone?

Why can't you

mind your own business?

You make me sick.

[laughing]

Think what you like.

But I love Lauren.

You wouldn't understand.

Yeah.

Yeah, right.

I don't understand,

'cos you're a prick!

Did you speak to Lauren

again that night?

Yeah.

I asked her if she

wanted to share a cab with me.

But Eddie said they

were going home together

and didn't even let her speak.

Anything?

No.

Hi, it's Mrs. Reynolds again.

Has Eddie shown up there yet?

Oh, oh, okay.

Could you give me a ring

if he does?

Okay, great, great.

Thanks very much, bye.

I don't know what else to do.

Where could he be?

Do you think

he could be at Lauren's?

[Dramatic music]

They left shortly after that.

Just calm yourself, just

don't even look at her.

Okay, okay, we'll go.

I won't say anything.

I didn't even see her

to say goodbye.

Oh, it's fine, it's fine.

-Come on, let's drive.

-No, I'm not driving

I've driven in worse

states then this before.

-That's not a good thing.

-It's fine.

-Can you just

let me book an Uber

-Ah, Philip!

-Eddie, can you stop!

They're going to The Afters, you

wanna come?

No, I don't want to come to.

-Well can I come to yours then?

-No, you definitely

What? Alright babe, babe, babe.

Look, look, look, look, look.

Just.

For a second, okay? Look.

-That girl today

meant nothing to me.

Okay, you're the only

girl for me, I promise you.

-Can you stop

-Babe.

I don't want to talk about this.

What is it you always

want me to say?

That you're.

the best girlfriend

in the world,

and I've only got eyes for you.

Can you please stop?

I just want to go home.

Babe!

[Discordant note plays]

-Can you slow down?

-Hmm?

-Can you slow down.

-It's fine.

-Eddie!

-Lauren, the road's.

Can you watch out?

Please just turn the music down.

-It's fine, turn it back up.

-Stop it.

You're being an idiot.

Can you slow down?

f*ck, Eddie!

I love this song.

-[Engine revs harder]

-It's not funny!

-Eddie, slow it down. Eddie!

-It's fine.

[metal crashing]

[car horn blares]

[sirens wail]

[Sombre music plays]

[muffled] Lauren

Lauren!

Help!

[Muffled banging]

Hey!

Lauren!

Oh, f*ck!

Oh, shit.

Help!

Hey, hey!

She's not moving, quick!

Oh, Lauren!

Where were you six months ago?

-When I had lost my child.

-How can you stand there?

How have you let this happen?

-Where the f*ck were you then?

-Get out!

-I hate you!

-I knew he wasn't good for her.

-You're precious little Eddie.

-You let this happen.

You let this happen!

You knew he was drunk

You let him go in the car!

What the f*ck are you doing?

Why did you f*cking come?

Cos you piece of shit

she's gone!

You piece of shit.

You're so f*cking selfish.

You don't care

about anyone but yourself.

It can be our secret.

Just don't leave me

again, Lauren.

[Sobbing]

I don't know what I'd do.

It's all because of you!

Because you didn't keep

an eye on your f*cking kids.

Your whole family

are shit, all of you!

I hate you!

I hate you.

I know. I know. I know.

I know.

I hate you!

Get out!

Oh, no!

[Sobbing]

I'm sorry Lauren.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

[Sobbing]

I'm sorry.

[Genni] She'd be here now

if it wasn't for him.

I don't think he

even knows how to be sorry,

or how to take responsibility.

[Genni] The saddest thing is,

it didn't need to happen.

He should have just

left her alone to live her life.

He never even gave her a chance.

I never saw myself

I never sensed my memory

Ooh, where's the sun?

I never felt my heart
