Baker Boys (2011) s01e03 Episode Script
Episode 3
1 You can't just shut us down.
This place has been going for over 30 years.
So you want to buy the bakery.
Well, that's exactly what I want.
You want people to put their own money in when they've just lost their job.
So, there's no guarantee it'll work and we'd lose all our money if it didn't.
It's a risk.
So you're just going to go home to him now as if nothing's happened.
Nothing has happened.
Sare, wait.
Are you gonna tell Rob? And you want me to join the buyout? I want you to join the buyout.
- And the wedding? - It'll have to wait.
Actually, I've been offered a job.
With the buyout brigade.
So we're putting Glasgow on hold, is that what you're saying? I don't want to move to Glasgow.
£15,000 short.
Not everyone who pledged came forward.
Plus the grants that didn't come in, 40,000.
I can put in 40 thou.
What? You've got Sarah on board, you can have me too.
I just want to say we did it! And this is just the beginning.
Stay away from her.
I will break every bone in your body if you so much as touch her.
You'll have to start pulling your weight now, Pete.
How are you? Yes, yes, yes, yes.
What's in your box, then, babes? Any chance of a ride? Er, sexual harassment, that is.
Lucky man.
Good to have you on board.
How are you? Right, let's get cracking.
It's like riding a bike, Gwynfor, eh? Any chance of a cuppa? - We're busy.
- Come on, I'm doing two jobs here.
It's thirsty work.
How many bosses does it take to change a light bulb? - How many? - One.
He puts up the light bulb and expects the universe to revolve around him.
- Morning.
- Didn't know you were in.
Yeah, I needed a meeting with Sarah, so You live together.
Never mix business with pleasure.
How's the, er, baking going? Fine.
Are you going to be long? I need my desk.
Yeah, we could do with another one in here.
You a bit crowded? Excuse me, boss.
- Yeah.
- Yup.
Sorry.
Force of habit.
You're needed in here.
Owen, there's something I'd like to raise Sorry, there are people smoking out by the bins.
Could we get a radio Right.
This is a suggestion box.
Write it down, pop it in there.
Then what? Management will discuss your requests.
Yes, what she said.
Excuse me.
We need more tea bags for the kitchen.
- Ask Shel.
- Oh, thanks.
A cancellation? - Saturday the 24th.
- Well What about the dress, the catering, everything? Wedding planner.
You tell them what you want whatever you want and they'll sort it out.
Look, I know it's quick, but I just feel like it's a whole new chapter for us.
Come on, what are we waiting for? Okay.
Okay, let's do it.
I'm not even joking with you one the size of a grape, one the size of a melon.
You should have been there, John, you would have loved it.
- On a go-slow, are we? - Bog off.
Excuse me? That's a board member you're speaking to.
Time was, any hold-up, and you'd be off for a crafty one.
I have never once drunk on the job.
Oh, come off it.
Lunchtimes don't count, everyone knows that.
Oh, things are different now you're the big man, is it? Well, I'll have less of your lip to start with.
And what are you gonna do about it? I could take disciplinary measures.
Promises, promises.
Oi, Owen! Ah, that's the whole lot gone.
Get the alarm off.
What's the problem? - Dodgy thermostat.
- Oh, not again.
Be late on delivery now.
Hang on, we've got two ovens, and one of them's dodgy? We lose a couple of batches now and again, that's all.
I've got a big idea here, how about getting it fixed? We tried, it's just old.
- Well, then we need a new one.
- We can't afford it.
- That's not your decision.
- That's not yours either.
No, it's the board's decision.
So we'll have a meeting to decide when we break.
This is the bookkeeping I used to do for Ooh, this looks lovely.
Hmm, me and Rob are getting married.
- In a month.
- A month? Yeah, he's hired a wedding planner.
Yeah, I know it's quick, but never really wanted to spend months sorting out menus and flowers and napkins and all that fussing.
That's brilliant, Sare.
Yeah, lucky we got a cancellation.
He said they're having a few at the moment.
- Yeah.
- Shelly, I'm sorry.
Oh, it's all right, really.
Congratulations.
A new oven will cost at least £27,000.
No chance, we haven't got it.
- Forget it.
- We've barely started, we don't have enough working capital.
We'd be running before we could walk.
It did lose us a couple of customers last year.
- I didn't know that.
- Why would you? You never used to give a monkey's.
Look, our margins are too narrow to make any mistakes.
We got three contracts, one fixed term, seasonal catering.
- When that's up - In three months.
Yeah, we're going to need something else.
And the oven's going to flip out again sometime, isn't it? Where's Rob? He's been fannying about here all morning, now we need him.
- He's on his way.
- This is a board meeting, he should be here.
- Well, as finance manager, I'm deputising.
Can you make a decision, then, on his behalf? Right, well, that's four against, one for that's democracy.
Forget the oven.
What? Hang on.
Don't count me as against.
- Sorry? - Well, I'd like to know more before I make my mind up.
- Apologies, everyone.
- And where the hell have you been? Getting us a new oven.
- What? A new oven? - Now hang on, we've not discussed this.
- £27,000 of our money? - Twelve.
- Sorry? - I got us one for 12.
- Not brand-new, but good as.
- Where from? Harring Bakeries.
Went into liquidation last week.
- Had a word with the administrator.
- Oh, that is a bargain, yeah? - A bargain.
- You shouldn't have acted without the board's agreement.
I know, but if I'd waited we wouldn't have got it.
You still spent £12,000.
You want to know how we pay for the oven? Harring Bakeries supplied bread and rolls to Capaldi's.
Now, Capaldi's have got 16 outlets across South Wales, and suddenly, no bread supplier.
I got on the phone, worked my magic, they've offered the contract to us.
- Ah, that's fantastic.
- There is a catch.
They want a one-month trial.
Starting this week.
- This week? - But we're flat-out as it is.
Can we put on more shifts? We could use some of the lads who lost their jobs at Harring.
No, we can't afford extra wages and anyway, you take new people on, it takes two weeks for them to be of any use to you.
Yeah, we wouldn't have time to train 'em.
Why? They'd be doing the same job.
No, it's a different mix, different methods.
You're telling me we can't hire anyone? Yes.
Oh, you think you know it all? So, you get on the phone to Capaldi's and you tell them you were talking through your arse.
We can't.
If we've spent 12 grand on an oven we're gonna run out of money to pay ourselves by the end of the month.
You spent our wages? - Can we cover new shifts as we are? - No.
To get fresh bread out at 7:00, it means you have to be in at 3:00.
That'll mean everyone would have to work two shifts, that's 14-hour days.
- For the whole month? - Well, that puts us well over the EU working time directive.
You're not serious.
We can't make everyone work like dogs because he screwed up.
Maybe if you go out there and sell it to them.
Lie to them, you mean.
They trust us.
Robert made a mistake.
- But he was doing his best.
- I'm not covering for him.
People will look to you now, for a lead.
You're the boss.
- Tell him that.
- I know.
You want to go down the pub, have a good old moan with everyone about how daft everything is.
Yeah, me too.
But where would that get us? So, what the hell do I say? EU directive means 48 hours a week, max.
- We can opt out.
- Yeah, if it's voluntary.
And everybody gets to decide for themselves.
But if the union says it's for the best, then maybe that will persuade people.
I'm meant to be representing workers' rights, not asking them to work themselves into the ground.
It means a 3:00 a.
m.
start.
You're having us on, aren't you? It's just for a month.
- Fourteen-hour days? - We've got two kids.
Who's going to look after them? Moira could help out.
It'd be plenty of overtime.
No, we can't afford it.
- So what would we get? - Minimum wage? Is this what being our own bosses means? Twice the work for half the money.
It's not what we signed up for.
No, we bought into this to have some control.
Look, it's not an ideal situation and I take full responsibility.
What does that mean? You gonna do the work? No, he screwed up and they want us to pay for it.
Now, hang on.
There is no them and us.
It's not a desirable situation, there's no denying it.
And I know that this next month will be very hard.
But it will make this venture more secure.
What happens if we say no? Then we run out of money.
So basically, we got no choice.
We're stuffed.
What's the union say, Pete? Well, I think, er, as a member of this co-operative that we need to work the extra shift.
If we all pool together, I am absolutely sure we can do it.
You were sure we'd beat the All Blacks.
It was a moral victory, Richard.
It was a mess.
Our line-out was all over the place.
Now, if you want to come to my office, I've got the opt-out forms.
You all have to sign them.
This had better be worth it.
- You're not going out tonight.
- Oh, one pint.
If you can have one pint, and be in work on time, you wouldn't still be working in the storeroom.
You were the one who made me go back there.
I was the one who paid for you to go back there.
Oh, so it's a shit job but I'm still supposed - Hey! Don't get lippy.
Come on, you'll have a bit of peace with me out the house.
No.
You know, unlike you, I can handle my drink.
Oh, tell me this is a nightmare.
- You should be in bed.
- So should you.
Ploughman's.
Don't forget your tablets.
If Kai tells you it's the school holidays, he's lying.
There's a blanket on the sofa, you can get some sleep.
Mum! Nath? Nathan.
I'm leaving in five minutes.
Yeah, yeah, I'll take my car, you go.
Yeah, don't be late.
Less talking, please, Tom, more work, yeah? More tea-making, please! - You don't have to be here.
- Well, you are.
Rich is.
- Here you are.
- Ta.
Did, er, Sarah say anything to you yesterday? About what? About her and Rob getting married.
She mentioned a while back that he'd asked her.
They've set a date now.
24th.
No, she didn't say anything.
Oh, I don't think she's told anyone else.
Asked around.
Maybe they won't need to.
Four hours' sleep I had.
I should be waking the kids up at 7:00.
Getting them breakfast.
- Packing their schoolbags - It's only for a month.
It's a long time when you're 5.
Er, where you going with that? It's for me and Rich.
Owen gave it to us.
Tell you what.
We'll have this one, you ask him for another one.
How is that fair? Oh, I love this song.
Hello.
Morning, sweetness, how you doing? Fine, why? Just wondered, has Mum said anything to you? About what? Living arrangements, Rob, that sort of thing.
What are you talking about? Nothing, don't worry.
Where are you? At school.
I can always call them and check.
Whatever, I have to go, we got assembly, bye.
I'm just looking for Nathan, is he in yet? Ah, job's getting done.
I'm managing.
Right.
I'll have a word.
- Busy? - What can I do for you? - Just something Shel mentioned.
- Yep.
Are you and Rob getting married? I was going to tell you today and then - You two set a date? - 24th.
And he's not making you move to Scotland? He was never going to make me No, we're going to stay here.
Well As long as you're happy.
You're not going to make things awkward, are you? What are you doing here? I just wanted to check the orders got off to Capaldi's on time.
And they did.
A very happy customer.
I'll let the others know.
And congratulations.
Well, it was you lot did the hard work.
No, I heard you got engaged.
- You heard? - Yeah, Shelly, you know what she's like.
Yeah.
Yeah, we should have told you.
It's fine.
I just wanted to say, all the best.
Cheers.
Back to the grindstone.
It's, er, my fault.
I should have told him.
Word travels round quick around here, doesn't it? Oh, sorry.
Shelly! Yeah? We need to have a word about confidentiality.
News about our wedding seems to have got out.
Oh, sorry, I thought you'd be telling people.
Yeah, I think we just need to keep business and personal separate.
Right, I'm off.
I'm meeting the dressmaker at 10:00.
Ta-ra.
Karen.
Going down the club tonight? - Why? - Might buy you a drink.
We're on at 3:00, remember? Another time.
I thought you could go all night.
Oh, is that right? You've been flirting with me since the day I got here.
But you never had the nerve to do anything about it.
What if, as a director of this co-operative, I was to tell you you're coming down the club tonight.
Then I'd have to go along with your blatant abuse of power.
Just to gather evidence against you.
Mine's a double vodka.
You're late.
- Where you been? - Here.
Yeah, Gwynfor's been covering for you.
Doing his job and yours.
You pull your weight, boy.
This is your first and last warning.
Debs.
Hiya, yes.
I just wanted to have a chat with you about a drinks do, for a wedding.
- Hi, Sare.
- Hiya.
- Told Elen to be round yours by 10:00.
- That's a bit late.
Oh, she's round at Amy's.
I thought it'd be all right.
She's been working hard.
Exam pressure and all that.
Is that a new shirt? Thought you were coming straight from work.
Did you? Nice of you to make an effort, like.
Mate, when I make an effort, you'll know about it.
Double vodka, was it? We could always go via the offy.
- If you fancy it.
- Go where? Your place, if that's all right? Right.
Probably around 60.
Er, nothing too complicated.
Keep it quite simple.
- Oh.
- And, erm - Oh.
- Ta-ra.
Ta-ra.
Good luck to her.
She's going to need it.
Oh.
- Don't be nervous.
- I'm not.
Just some men can get a little bit, erm self-conscious, about their bodies.
Not me, I can even do it with the lights on, if you want.
Well, that's good to know, because what I'd really like is if we could film it.
That's fine.
You first.
All right, you got me.
Come here.
Oh, yeah, I've, er started a spreadsheet for wedding guests, we just need to be realistic about numbers.
Oh, no, no, no.
School night.
Yeah Erm, I've had an idea.
Instead of all the formal nonsense, why don't we just have a pre-wedding piss-up at the club? Capaldi trial finishes the day before, it'll be like a big thank you to everyone.
Is this our wedding drinks or work drinks? Well, if we can get everybody from the bakery in on it, we can be a bit choosy with the reception.
Keep it small, intimate.
Hello.
It's, er, 10:30, we did say 10:00.
Sorry, I was helping Amy with her homework.
Erm, Elen, your mum has got something to tell you.
- Oh? - Yeah, me and Rob are getting married at the end of the month.
- Right.
So, nothing's going to change, we're gonna still be living here, me, you, him.
I don't have to be bridesmaid, do I? Not if you don't want to, no.
- Well - Well congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Can I go to bed now? I ate at Amy's.
Sure.
Night-night.
- Night.
- Night.
I never know what that girl's gonna say.
I really don't.
Let me put that in.
- How would you feel about more? - "More"? More what? Children? Or one more, maybe.
You've never mentioned children before.
Well, sometimes it feels like we've got our hands full with Elen.
Yeah, I know, yeah.
And you are brilliant with her.
I just wonder what ours would be like.
And we're still young ish.
We're getting married.
So you'd be up for all the sleepless nights and the nappy changes and the crying and the feeding You'd do all that, wouldn't you? Joking.
Yeah, why not, how hard can it be? Do you know, it's worth having a baby, just to see you eat your words.
So you'll think about it, then? Hmm.
I thought I'd be getting more responsibility, you know? Learning stuff.
- I'm sure you are.
- I'm not.
Just get given the scraps Sarah doesn't want.
And I can hardly say anything to Rob, can I? I keep walking in on them kissing.
Just feel like I'm in the way.
No one listens to me.
I don't think I've ever done it literally all night.
Well, learn to do it better and next time you might not have to.
- Oi.
- And it's only half-two, it's hardly all night.
Thanks, Moira.
- Cheers, bye.
- Off you go.
Gwynfor says Moira can't help tonight.
Can your mum? I can ask her.
She's been on earlies, she'll be knackered.
Thank God it's only for another week.
Only? I'm ready to drop now.
- Look out! - Dave! Dave.
We're lucky it wasn't worse.
With the hours we're working, I mean, if there's a serious accident, are we still insured? Who am I going to sue? Myself? You? - Everything all right? - No.
It's not.
I'm working my arse off here and you haven't been in on time all bloody week.
- All right, all right, I'll sort it.
Oh, come off it, Pete.
There's one rule for the bosses, and another rule for the rest of us.
- That's not true.
- I only asked if everything was all right.
- Nathan, quiet.
Fine.
I don't want to be here anyway.
Hey, come back here.
- Get off me.
- Hey! - Come on! - Stop it! Everyone stop it.
- What the hell is going on, Pete? - Nathan! Home! I'll deal with you later.
So you give me a bollocking for turning up late, now you're sending me home! - Don't get lippy with me, boy.
I'll sort it.
So, an accident and a fight in one morning.
Let's try to keep it at one fight, shall we? Sorry, erm It's about insurance.
Well, we're employees as well as owners, and so I don't know where liability starts and Ask him.
I've got enough on my plate.
See this number here.
"Any queries, give our advice line a ring.
" I can't believe Dave hit you.
It's not even me he's pissed off at really.
It's it's the fact that he's put all his money into that place, now he's working around the clock for peanuts.
Pour us another.
Good job I can always rely on you for free booze.
It's posh, this.
You sure they don't mind? They're too busy, they won't even notice.
Like they won't notice you not being at school? Lucky for you I wasn't.
So, how long's your mam and Rob been together? Eight years.
They've known each other forever.
They were at school together.
My dad, too, back in the dark ages.
- What are you making? - A Trefynydd Twister.
Keep going.
I can take it.
What about your mum? She's gone.
Got a new family now, in the Midlands somewhere.
What are they like? Well, I haven't seen her since I was 10.
How come? I don't know.
She left us, why should I? I can't blame her, mind.
I mean, who'd put up with my dad and his moods and his drinking? You do.
Yeah, I get a roof over my head and my bills paid for.
Must be more to it than that.
Well, he's not all bad.
It's just I don't think things have turned out as he thought they would.
Including me.
That's not your fault.
I'm not what my mum and dad were expecting.
You should stand up to him more.
Or just go.
I'd have to work out where I was going first, though, wouldn't I? How's it all going? In a daze.
I meant you and Karen.
- Good, thanks.
- Great.
Nice girl.
- That's not quite what I'd call her.
- Good-looking.
- Yeah.
- Makes the best of herself.
- Guess so.
- Right, well, glad all is tickety-boo.
Hello.
Yeah.
Sare? How much has she had? Best part of a bottle of vodka.
How you feeling, El? Where's Nathan? Er, he's in the living room scrubbing vomit off the sofa.
You should ask us before you have boys round.
Not going to interfere.
What about you and Karen? She's round all the time.
Me and Karen are grown-ups.
Pete.
He is.
Why did you drink so much, baby? What's going on? I wanted to know what it was like.
What was it like? - Horrible.
- Hmm.
What's going on with this Nathan? Is he your boyfriend? - No.
- What's he doing here? He pays attention to me.
He listens.
- And we don't? - You're too busy.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to You might be a waster but don't you dare drag anyone else down with you.
Yeah, you want to have a go, do you? Hey? You want to take me on, do ya? Hey?! It's really nice of you, cooking me dinner.
Don't expect it every night.
Do you think we spend a lot of time together? I finish work at 6:00, I've got to be up at 3:00 in the morning.
And your place is 20 minutes closer to work than mine.
So, if it wasn't for the way things are at work, we'd probably be taking it a bit slower.
Say what you want to say.
Just I think for Elen I think having you round so much so quick, is a bit weird for her.
Then I won't come round as much.
Yeah.
That might not do it.
So This is as far as it goes? I think so.
It was nice while it lasted.
Don't go, you made all this.
I did, didn't I? I'm home.
Wanted to give you a little treat.
Been working so hard.
What's that bath towel? Ta-da! Takeaway? How come that took two hours? Ohh.
Whoa! Whoa! Don't go in there.
I remembered you saying about that Jamie Oliver fusion stuff you liked.
Where he gets the different dishes Maybe I should've tried something easier.
I'm sorry, love.
- Come on, you're tired.
- Yes, I am.
I'm shattered.
And I know you're trying, but now there's all this to clear up, and we could have put that money in the wedding fund.
I've just about had enough.
I'm only at that bloody bakery because of you.
And I am trying.
I'm bloody knackered too.
So, how's about you get off my back and stop being such a bitch.
Wait, where you going? Shel! Have another glass, won't seem so bad.
Cheers.
Rich is right, - I'm just being a crabby bitch.
- You're knackered.
Give yourself a break.
Have some more curry.
Hmm.
So, Karen just made all this and then left? Kind of.
Oh, you dumped her.
I knew you would.
- How? - Well, you always do.
Dead keen to start with, dead donkey two months in.
- That's not true.
- It is.
Sarah says, you think if a woman really likes you there must be something wrong with her.
Bollocks.
Well, it's a shame.
Karen would've been good for you.
Let's talk about you now.
Okay.
I thought I was going to be someone in this bakeryjob.
You know, do more by myself.
But they're just treating me like I'm stupid.
- Who? - Rob and Sarah.
And then there's the wedding.
Hotel do, dresses, wedding planner.
Rob's spending a fortune.
I mean, I want to be happy for them, I do, but I'm thinking I'll never have that.
Rob worships her.
He really does.
And Rich worships you.
In his way.
I don't even think she's that bothered.
- What do you mean? - Sare, about getting married.
- What's she said? - Nothing, that's it.
I mean, if it was me getting married in a week, you couldn't shut me up.
Well, believe me, you and Rich are a damn sight more solid than Rob and Sarah.
- Yeah, well, you would say that.
- I know that.
What do you mean? Just, you never know the full story with relationships, in general.
- Oh, my God.
- What? When? - You've slept with her, haven't you? - Slept with who? Oh, don't.
- Me and Sarah? - No, you and Rob.
When? Ages ago.
When she was thinking of moving to Scotland.
That wasn't ages, that was weeks.
Look, I thought she was going.
I thought it was just that night.
- It didn't mean anything.
- You idiot.
Shel, don't say a word.
To anyone.
You know, I think we're going to do it.
Listen, I've got to dash home to check on Elen, but There was just something I wanted to get your thoughts on.
I hope you don't mind.
No.
Well, I know I work hard, Rob, but this is too much.
Sarah just thinks I haven't bothered, but I had it made specially.
Do you think it's all right? It's beautiful.
Oh, it's really beautiful.
Yeah? Thank you.
Right, see you later.
- See ya.
- See ya.
So, three days to go.
I've got another dress fitting.
Should only take 20 minutes, but she loves to drag it out.
Oh, how annoying.
Sorry? I'll try and get back by 11:00.
Just ring if there's an emergency.
Hello, Valley Bara.
Yes.
Today? Yeah, two seconds.
It's Food Standards.
They're doing a spot check this afternoon.
What? Cleaning now, on top of everything else.
Never gonna pass.
All the corners we've cut.
Yeah, why is it happening now? I rang HSE last week, for help.
Might have set off a few alarm bells.
Why didn't you just talk to me and Rob? Well, Rob was busy.
He told me to ring HSE.
This was the last thing we needed, Shel.
- I was trying to help.
- You should've asked.
What's done is done.
If you want to help, get stuck in.
Yeah, well, I've got to go and change.
Shel! - Don't talk to me like that.
- Well, you could've called me.
Well, I didn't want to.
You've been a bossy prima donna since we started here.
Well, all you've done is sulk and screw things up, Shel.
Oh, well, you're never here.
Always swanning off to meet your wedding planner.
Oh, that's what this is about, is it? My wedding.
No, but now you come to mention it, I spend more time with Rob than you do.
- Which is hardly surprising.
- What? - Well, you don't love him.
- Don't be ridiculous, of course I do.
Oh, then why did you shag Owen? What is it? One for fun, one to pay the bills? Inspector's here, then.
Looks happy so far.
What an effort.
Two more days, thank God.
- Well, it's not over yet.
- Yep.
I've got to check the delivery list.
If there's gonna be a mistake, it'll be today.
I'll get stuff ready for the mixers.
Oh, he's along there.
They've just brought him up from A&E.
- He never said he felt ill.
- Well, he wouldn't.
I'm sure he'll be fine.
How can you stand there and say that? Those hours were ridiculous.
He was working himself into the ground.
And you are union, you should've protected him.
It wasn't Pete's fault, Moira.
It was his son that Gwynfor was covering for.
Doing two men's jobs.
Because he was your friend.
And what did you do for him? Nothing.
So don't you stand there and tell me it'll be fine.
Don't you dare.
Well What's all this, then? Hmm.
Okay.
Thanks.
He's stable.
That's all they'll say.
Well, stable's good, isn't it? - Well, isn't it? - Yes, stable's good.
It wasn't your fault he had a weak heart.
Yeah.
- How many years have they been married? - I don't know.
There's a lot of love there, you know.
Loyalty.
A lifetime of it.
That's all that matters, isn't it? In the end.
What's the matter? I'm so sorry.
I'm so so I'm so sorry.
No, don't.
I can't.
- What's the matter? - I can't do this.
The what? The wedding? What? Can't What's wrong? You don't wanna do it because of Gwynfor? Or at all? No, no.
I want to.
I want to marry you.
See, I want to.
I want everything to be all right.
It's not gonna be.
'Cause I haven't been honest with you.
About what? Owen.
Me and Owen, erm slept together, a couple of months ago.
Before you asked me to marry you.
It just happened.
It didn't mean anything.
It didn't mean anything and I really wish it hadn't Er Erm - Where? - His house.
- When? - I just told you.
- No, where was I? - I don't know.
Work.
Here.
I came back and got into bed and you were asleep.
I don't understand.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
All this time, buying the bakery, it was before all that? Yeah.
I don't understand.
I slept with him and I wish I hadn't.
No, no, not that.
I don't understand you carrying on sleeping with me, and agreeing to marry me and talking about starting a family with me.
Unless you did it for the money.
So, my money would save that bakery? I didn't do it for the money.
I love you.
Oh, don't.
Well, it's the truth.
Why tell me now? What do you want? Were you scared I'd find out? Who else knows? No one else knows.
Shelly.
Shel So, the whole bakery They'll all know! They'll all be laughing at me.
It's not like that.
I'm having to tell you because I can't live with myself any more.
What What do you expect me to say? - "Thanks for your honesty, never mind"? - No.
What, then? What do you want from me? It was a mistake, it was once.
- I don't care! - It was a mistake.
Yes.
Yeah, yes, it was.
Where Where you going? Come on, come on! All right? What the hell? I know about you and Sarah.
I gave her everything you couldn't.
You just couldn't stand that, could you? Don't flatter yourself.
She came looking for me.
Well, I hope it was worth it.
'Cause I'm pulling every penny of mine out of Valley Bara.
- You can't.
- Everything you've all worked for, gone, because of you! You can beat the crap out of me now, and I won't stop you.
- Just don't wreck the buyout.
- Why? 'Cause you won't be the big man any more? When everyone knows it's your fault they're alljobless and broke.
Because it's not their fault.
But I want you to know how it feels when something you love is taken away from you.
Can you get these ready by 9:00? Thanks.
What the hell happened to you? Was it Rob? It was, wasn't it? He found out.
Oh, my God, this is my fault.
This is all my fault.
This time, I think it's all mine.
What happens if Rob pulls his money out of this place, then? If this collapses after all this work.
Nothing left to say, then, is there? I just wanted to say, well done, everyone.
We did it.
We've completed the Capaldi trial.
Drinks are on me tonight.
And believe me, you've earned every one.
Is there any news on Gwynfor? Pete's at the hospital now.
He'll let us know.
I didn't want you here.
But it's not about what I want, is it? Moira, I'm so sorry.
Seeing as you are here, you can help me.
There's his things to carry.
People are staring.
Can't blame them.
Go on.
Here, let me.
I thought they were on Rob, pre-wedding drinks.
It's my tab now.
Rob's not gonna have anything left by the time you've finished, is he? Except half of Valley Bara.
Chances are, he's not gonna want that, is he? Seriously, what happens now? - We'll sort something out.
- Oh, you don't know.
And I'm so tired I can't even give you the kicking you deserve.
I just want to get drunk, go home, hug my kids, and go to sleep.
Shut up and buy me a pint.
How long has it been going on for? - Owen and Sarah? - Don't ask me.
I wish I'd never said a word about it.
Could've been years.
No, it was just the once.
What do you mean, "just"? What about the big wedding? Well, I'm guessing that's off.
Cheers.
She's got a nerve.
Sarah, I am so sorry.
Me too.
I thought he might be here.
Have you heard anything? He's not answering his phone.
I rang round the hospitals, nothing.
The police say they can't do anything.
What would it take to make you stay? Stay? Keep all this going.
What if I left? Got out of your life and Sarah's? Too late.
Rob Can we have the music down, please? - Thank you.
- Rob, please, don't.
Er, everybody, erm If I could, I'd just like to say a few words.
First, I'd like to say thank you.
You have all worked so hard over the last four weeks.
I spoke to the manager at Capaldi's last night, and the contract is ours.
Now, when we took on the trial, I have to admit, I wondered whether you could stick it.
But you did.
You did.
You have all impressed me more than I imagined you could.
And so that makes what I have to say next quite difficult.
Moira.
I didn't want to come here.
I won't lie to you.
I know you're all proud of what you've done.
But there's been a price to pay.
And Gwynfor's paid it.
- Is she telling you off? - There he is.
Nothing compared to what I've had, believe me.
Look, I know I can go on a bit sometimes, but, er This needs to be said.
What we're seeing in this town of ours is the start of something extraordinary.
And I think we've forgotten that these last few weeks.
And yes, we've worked hard.
Too hard.
But we've done it for ourselves.
And for each other.
Because we can do things as a community we never could as individuals.
I used to think we were the last generation to believe that, that nowadays it was every man for himself, that we got used to the idea of doing well at someone else's expense.
But we have proved it doesn't have to be like that.
And that there is something to be proud of.
Well, hope we didn't interrupt anything.
Was there something you wanted to say? Yeah.
Yeah, there was.
This place has been going for over 30 years.
So you want to buy the bakery.
Well, that's exactly what I want.
You want people to put their own money in when they've just lost their job.
So, there's no guarantee it'll work and we'd lose all our money if it didn't.
It's a risk.
So you're just going to go home to him now as if nothing's happened.
Nothing has happened.
Sare, wait.
Are you gonna tell Rob? And you want me to join the buyout? I want you to join the buyout.
- And the wedding? - It'll have to wait.
Actually, I've been offered a job.
With the buyout brigade.
So we're putting Glasgow on hold, is that what you're saying? I don't want to move to Glasgow.
£15,000 short.
Not everyone who pledged came forward.
Plus the grants that didn't come in, 40,000.
I can put in 40 thou.
What? You've got Sarah on board, you can have me too.
I just want to say we did it! And this is just the beginning.
Stay away from her.
I will break every bone in your body if you so much as touch her.
You'll have to start pulling your weight now, Pete.
How are you? Yes, yes, yes, yes.
What's in your box, then, babes? Any chance of a ride? Er, sexual harassment, that is.
Lucky man.
Good to have you on board.
How are you? Right, let's get cracking.
It's like riding a bike, Gwynfor, eh? Any chance of a cuppa? - We're busy.
- Come on, I'm doing two jobs here.
It's thirsty work.
How many bosses does it take to change a light bulb? - How many? - One.
He puts up the light bulb and expects the universe to revolve around him.
- Morning.
- Didn't know you were in.
Yeah, I needed a meeting with Sarah, so You live together.
Never mix business with pleasure.
How's the, er, baking going? Fine.
Are you going to be long? I need my desk.
Yeah, we could do with another one in here.
You a bit crowded? Excuse me, boss.
- Yeah.
- Yup.
Sorry.
Force of habit.
You're needed in here.
Owen, there's something I'd like to raise Sorry, there are people smoking out by the bins.
Could we get a radio Right.
This is a suggestion box.
Write it down, pop it in there.
Then what? Management will discuss your requests.
Yes, what she said.
Excuse me.
We need more tea bags for the kitchen.
- Ask Shel.
- Oh, thanks.
A cancellation? - Saturday the 24th.
- Well What about the dress, the catering, everything? Wedding planner.
You tell them what you want whatever you want and they'll sort it out.
Look, I know it's quick, but I just feel like it's a whole new chapter for us.
Come on, what are we waiting for? Okay.
Okay, let's do it.
I'm not even joking with you one the size of a grape, one the size of a melon.
You should have been there, John, you would have loved it.
- On a go-slow, are we? - Bog off.
Excuse me? That's a board member you're speaking to.
Time was, any hold-up, and you'd be off for a crafty one.
I have never once drunk on the job.
Oh, come off it.
Lunchtimes don't count, everyone knows that.
Oh, things are different now you're the big man, is it? Well, I'll have less of your lip to start with.
And what are you gonna do about it? I could take disciplinary measures.
Promises, promises.
Oi, Owen! Ah, that's the whole lot gone.
Get the alarm off.
What's the problem? - Dodgy thermostat.
- Oh, not again.
Be late on delivery now.
Hang on, we've got two ovens, and one of them's dodgy? We lose a couple of batches now and again, that's all.
I've got a big idea here, how about getting it fixed? We tried, it's just old.
- Well, then we need a new one.
- We can't afford it.
- That's not your decision.
- That's not yours either.
No, it's the board's decision.
So we'll have a meeting to decide when we break.
This is the bookkeeping I used to do for Ooh, this looks lovely.
Hmm, me and Rob are getting married.
- In a month.
- A month? Yeah, he's hired a wedding planner.
Yeah, I know it's quick, but never really wanted to spend months sorting out menus and flowers and napkins and all that fussing.
That's brilliant, Sare.
Yeah, lucky we got a cancellation.
He said they're having a few at the moment.
- Yeah.
- Shelly, I'm sorry.
Oh, it's all right, really.
Congratulations.
A new oven will cost at least £27,000.
No chance, we haven't got it.
- Forget it.
- We've barely started, we don't have enough working capital.
We'd be running before we could walk.
It did lose us a couple of customers last year.
- I didn't know that.
- Why would you? You never used to give a monkey's.
Look, our margins are too narrow to make any mistakes.
We got three contracts, one fixed term, seasonal catering.
- When that's up - In three months.
Yeah, we're going to need something else.
And the oven's going to flip out again sometime, isn't it? Where's Rob? He's been fannying about here all morning, now we need him.
- He's on his way.
- This is a board meeting, he should be here.
- Well, as finance manager, I'm deputising.
Can you make a decision, then, on his behalf? Right, well, that's four against, one for that's democracy.
Forget the oven.
What? Hang on.
Don't count me as against.
- Sorry? - Well, I'd like to know more before I make my mind up.
- Apologies, everyone.
- And where the hell have you been? Getting us a new oven.
- What? A new oven? - Now hang on, we've not discussed this.
- £27,000 of our money? - Twelve.
- Sorry? - I got us one for 12.
- Not brand-new, but good as.
- Where from? Harring Bakeries.
Went into liquidation last week.
- Had a word with the administrator.
- Oh, that is a bargain, yeah? - A bargain.
- You shouldn't have acted without the board's agreement.
I know, but if I'd waited we wouldn't have got it.
You still spent £12,000.
You want to know how we pay for the oven? Harring Bakeries supplied bread and rolls to Capaldi's.
Now, Capaldi's have got 16 outlets across South Wales, and suddenly, no bread supplier.
I got on the phone, worked my magic, they've offered the contract to us.
- Ah, that's fantastic.
- There is a catch.
They want a one-month trial.
Starting this week.
- This week? - But we're flat-out as it is.
Can we put on more shifts? We could use some of the lads who lost their jobs at Harring.
No, we can't afford extra wages and anyway, you take new people on, it takes two weeks for them to be of any use to you.
Yeah, we wouldn't have time to train 'em.
Why? They'd be doing the same job.
No, it's a different mix, different methods.
You're telling me we can't hire anyone? Yes.
Oh, you think you know it all? So, you get on the phone to Capaldi's and you tell them you were talking through your arse.
We can't.
If we've spent 12 grand on an oven we're gonna run out of money to pay ourselves by the end of the month.
You spent our wages? - Can we cover new shifts as we are? - No.
To get fresh bread out at 7:00, it means you have to be in at 3:00.
That'll mean everyone would have to work two shifts, that's 14-hour days.
- For the whole month? - Well, that puts us well over the EU working time directive.
You're not serious.
We can't make everyone work like dogs because he screwed up.
Maybe if you go out there and sell it to them.
Lie to them, you mean.
They trust us.
Robert made a mistake.
- But he was doing his best.
- I'm not covering for him.
People will look to you now, for a lead.
You're the boss.
- Tell him that.
- I know.
You want to go down the pub, have a good old moan with everyone about how daft everything is.
Yeah, me too.
But where would that get us? So, what the hell do I say? EU directive means 48 hours a week, max.
- We can opt out.
- Yeah, if it's voluntary.
And everybody gets to decide for themselves.
But if the union says it's for the best, then maybe that will persuade people.
I'm meant to be representing workers' rights, not asking them to work themselves into the ground.
It means a 3:00 a.
m.
start.
You're having us on, aren't you? It's just for a month.
- Fourteen-hour days? - We've got two kids.
Who's going to look after them? Moira could help out.
It'd be plenty of overtime.
No, we can't afford it.
- So what would we get? - Minimum wage? Is this what being our own bosses means? Twice the work for half the money.
It's not what we signed up for.
No, we bought into this to have some control.
Look, it's not an ideal situation and I take full responsibility.
What does that mean? You gonna do the work? No, he screwed up and they want us to pay for it.
Now, hang on.
There is no them and us.
It's not a desirable situation, there's no denying it.
And I know that this next month will be very hard.
But it will make this venture more secure.
What happens if we say no? Then we run out of money.
So basically, we got no choice.
We're stuffed.
What's the union say, Pete? Well, I think, er, as a member of this co-operative that we need to work the extra shift.
If we all pool together, I am absolutely sure we can do it.
You were sure we'd beat the All Blacks.
It was a moral victory, Richard.
It was a mess.
Our line-out was all over the place.
Now, if you want to come to my office, I've got the opt-out forms.
You all have to sign them.
This had better be worth it.
- You're not going out tonight.
- Oh, one pint.
If you can have one pint, and be in work on time, you wouldn't still be working in the storeroom.
You were the one who made me go back there.
I was the one who paid for you to go back there.
Oh, so it's a shit job but I'm still supposed - Hey! Don't get lippy.
Come on, you'll have a bit of peace with me out the house.
No.
You know, unlike you, I can handle my drink.
Oh, tell me this is a nightmare.
- You should be in bed.
- So should you.
Ploughman's.
Don't forget your tablets.
If Kai tells you it's the school holidays, he's lying.
There's a blanket on the sofa, you can get some sleep.
Mum! Nath? Nathan.
I'm leaving in five minutes.
Yeah, yeah, I'll take my car, you go.
Yeah, don't be late.
Less talking, please, Tom, more work, yeah? More tea-making, please! - You don't have to be here.
- Well, you are.
Rich is.
- Here you are.
- Ta.
Did, er, Sarah say anything to you yesterday? About what? About her and Rob getting married.
She mentioned a while back that he'd asked her.
They've set a date now.
24th.
No, she didn't say anything.
Oh, I don't think she's told anyone else.
Asked around.
Maybe they won't need to.
Four hours' sleep I had.
I should be waking the kids up at 7:00.
Getting them breakfast.
- Packing their schoolbags - It's only for a month.
It's a long time when you're 5.
Er, where you going with that? It's for me and Rich.
Owen gave it to us.
Tell you what.
We'll have this one, you ask him for another one.
How is that fair? Oh, I love this song.
Hello.
Morning, sweetness, how you doing? Fine, why? Just wondered, has Mum said anything to you? About what? Living arrangements, Rob, that sort of thing.
What are you talking about? Nothing, don't worry.
Where are you? At school.
I can always call them and check.
Whatever, I have to go, we got assembly, bye.
I'm just looking for Nathan, is he in yet? Ah, job's getting done.
I'm managing.
Right.
I'll have a word.
- Busy? - What can I do for you? - Just something Shel mentioned.
- Yep.
Are you and Rob getting married? I was going to tell you today and then - You two set a date? - 24th.
And he's not making you move to Scotland? He was never going to make me No, we're going to stay here.
Well As long as you're happy.
You're not going to make things awkward, are you? What are you doing here? I just wanted to check the orders got off to Capaldi's on time.
And they did.
A very happy customer.
I'll let the others know.
And congratulations.
Well, it was you lot did the hard work.
No, I heard you got engaged.
- You heard? - Yeah, Shelly, you know what she's like.
Yeah.
Yeah, we should have told you.
It's fine.
I just wanted to say, all the best.
Cheers.
Back to the grindstone.
It's, er, my fault.
I should have told him.
Word travels round quick around here, doesn't it? Oh, sorry.
Shelly! Yeah? We need to have a word about confidentiality.
News about our wedding seems to have got out.
Oh, sorry, I thought you'd be telling people.
Yeah, I think we just need to keep business and personal separate.
Right, I'm off.
I'm meeting the dressmaker at 10:00.
Ta-ra.
Karen.
Going down the club tonight? - Why? - Might buy you a drink.
We're on at 3:00, remember? Another time.
I thought you could go all night.
Oh, is that right? You've been flirting with me since the day I got here.
But you never had the nerve to do anything about it.
What if, as a director of this co-operative, I was to tell you you're coming down the club tonight.
Then I'd have to go along with your blatant abuse of power.
Just to gather evidence against you.
Mine's a double vodka.
You're late.
- Where you been? - Here.
Yeah, Gwynfor's been covering for you.
Doing his job and yours.
You pull your weight, boy.
This is your first and last warning.
Debs.
Hiya, yes.
I just wanted to have a chat with you about a drinks do, for a wedding.
- Hi, Sare.
- Hiya.
- Told Elen to be round yours by 10:00.
- That's a bit late.
Oh, she's round at Amy's.
I thought it'd be all right.
She's been working hard.
Exam pressure and all that.
Is that a new shirt? Thought you were coming straight from work.
Did you? Nice of you to make an effort, like.
Mate, when I make an effort, you'll know about it.
Double vodka, was it? We could always go via the offy.
- If you fancy it.
- Go where? Your place, if that's all right? Right.
Probably around 60.
Er, nothing too complicated.
Keep it quite simple.
- Oh.
- And, erm - Oh.
- Ta-ra.
Ta-ra.
Good luck to her.
She's going to need it.
Oh.
- Don't be nervous.
- I'm not.
Just some men can get a little bit, erm self-conscious, about their bodies.
Not me, I can even do it with the lights on, if you want.
Well, that's good to know, because what I'd really like is if we could film it.
That's fine.
You first.
All right, you got me.
Come here.
Oh, yeah, I've, er started a spreadsheet for wedding guests, we just need to be realistic about numbers.
Oh, no, no, no.
School night.
Yeah Erm, I've had an idea.
Instead of all the formal nonsense, why don't we just have a pre-wedding piss-up at the club? Capaldi trial finishes the day before, it'll be like a big thank you to everyone.
Is this our wedding drinks or work drinks? Well, if we can get everybody from the bakery in on it, we can be a bit choosy with the reception.
Keep it small, intimate.
Hello.
It's, er, 10:30, we did say 10:00.
Sorry, I was helping Amy with her homework.
Erm, Elen, your mum has got something to tell you.
- Oh? - Yeah, me and Rob are getting married at the end of the month.
- Right.
So, nothing's going to change, we're gonna still be living here, me, you, him.
I don't have to be bridesmaid, do I? Not if you don't want to, no.
- Well - Well congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Can I go to bed now? I ate at Amy's.
Sure.
Night-night.
- Night.
- Night.
I never know what that girl's gonna say.
I really don't.
Let me put that in.
- How would you feel about more? - "More"? More what? Children? Or one more, maybe.
You've never mentioned children before.
Well, sometimes it feels like we've got our hands full with Elen.
Yeah, I know, yeah.
And you are brilliant with her.
I just wonder what ours would be like.
And we're still young ish.
We're getting married.
So you'd be up for all the sleepless nights and the nappy changes and the crying and the feeding You'd do all that, wouldn't you? Joking.
Yeah, why not, how hard can it be? Do you know, it's worth having a baby, just to see you eat your words.
So you'll think about it, then? Hmm.
I thought I'd be getting more responsibility, you know? Learning stuff.
- I'm sure you are.
- I'm not.
Just get given the scraps Sarah doesn't want.
And I can hardly say anything to Rob, can I? I keep walking in on them kissing.
Just feel like I'm in the way.
No one listens to me.
I don't think I've ever done it literally all night.
Well, learn to do it better and next time you might not have to.
- Oi.
- And it's only half-two, it's hardly all night.
Thanks, Moira.
- Cheers, bye.
- Off you go.
Gwynfor says Moira can't help tonight.
Can your mum? I can ask her.
She's been on earlies, she'll be knackered.
Thank God it's only for another week.
Only? I'm ready to drop now.
- Look out! - Dave! Dave.
We're lucky it wasn't worse.
With the hours we're working, I mean, if there's a serious accident, are we still insured? Who am I going to sue? Myself? You? - Everything all right? - No.
It's not.
I'm working my arse off here and you haven't been in on time all bloody week.
- All right, all right, I'll sort it.
Oh, come off it, Pete.
There's one rule for the bosses, and another rule for the rest of us.
- That's not true.
- I only asked if everything was all right.
- Nathan, quiet.
Fine.
I don't want to be here anyway.
Hey, come back here.
- Get off me.
- Hey! - Come on! - Stop it! Everyone stop it.
- What the hell is going on, Pete? - Nathan! Home! I'll deal with you later.
So you give me a bollocking for turning up late, now you're sending me home! - Don't get lippy with me, boy.
I'll sort it.
So, an accident and a fight in one morning.
Let's try to keep it at one fight, shall we? Sorry, erm It's about insurance.
Well, we're employees as well as owners, and so I don't know where liability starts and Ask him.
I've got enough on my plate.
See this number here.
"Any queries, give our advice line a ring.
" I can't believe Dave hit you.
It's not even me he's pissed off at really.
It's it's the fact that he's put all his money into that place, now he's working around the clock for peanuts.
Pour us another.
Good job I can always rely on you for free booze.
It's posh, this.
You sure they don't mind? They're too busy, they won't even notice.
Like they won't notice you not being at school? Lucky for you I wasn't.
So, how long's your mam and Rob been together? Eight years.
They've known each other forever.
They were at school together.
My dad, too, back in the dark ages.
- What are you making? - A Trefynydd Twister.
Keep going.
I can take it.
What about your mum? She's gone.
Got a new family now, in the Midlands somewhere.
What are they like? Well, I haven't seen her since I was 10.
How come? I don't know.
She left us, why should I? I can't blame her, mind.
I mean, who'd put up with my dad and his moods and his drinking? You do.
Yeah, I get a roof over my head and my bills paid for.
Must be more to it than that.
Well, he's not all bad.
It's just I don't think things have turned out as he thought they would.
Including me.
That's not your fault.
I'm not what my mum and dad were expecting.
You should stand up to him more.
Or just go.
I'd have to work out where I was going first, though, wouldn't I? How's it all going? In a daze.
I meant you and Karen.
- Good, thanks.
- Great.
Nice girl.
- That's not quite what I'd call her.
- Good-looking.
- Yeah.
- Makes the best of herself.
- Guess so.
- Right, well, glad all is tickety-boo.
Hello.
Yeah.
Sare? How much has she had? Best part of a bottle of vodka.
How you feeling, El? Where's Nathan? Er, he's in the living room scrubbing vomit off the sofa.
You should ask us before you have boys round.
Not going to interfere.
What about you and Karen? She's round all the time.
Me and Karen are grown-ups.
Pete.
He is.
Why did you drink so much, baby? What's going on? I wanted to know what it was like.
What was it like? - Horrible.
- Hmm.
What's going on with this Nathan? Is he your boyfriend? - No.
- What's he doing here? He pays attention to me.
He listens.
- And we don't? - You're too busy.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to You might be a waster but don't you dare drag anyone else down with you.
Yeah, you want to have a go, do you? Hey? You want to take me on, do ya? Hey?! It's really nice of you, cooking me dinner.
Don't expect it every night.
Do you think we spend a lot of time together? I finish work at 6:00, I've got to be up at 3:00 in the morning.
And your place is 20 minutes closer to work than mine.
So, if it wasn't for the way things are at work, we'd probably be taking it a bit slower.
Say what you want to say.
Just I think for Elen I think having you round so much so quick, is a bit weird for her.
Then I won't come round as much.
Yeah.
That might not do it.
So This is as far as it goes? I think so.
It was nice while it lasted.
Don't go, you made all this.
I did, didn't I? I'm home.
Wanted to give you a little treat.
Been working so hard.
What's that bath towel? Ta-da! Takeaway? How come that took two hours? Ohh.
Whoa! Whoa! Don't go in there.
I remembered you saying about that Jamie Oliver fusion stuff you liked.
Where he gets the different dishes Maybe I should've tried something easier.
I'm sorry, love.
- Come on, you're tired.
- Yes, I am.
I'm shattered.
And I know you're trying, but now there's all this to clear up, and we could have put that money in the wedding fund.
I've just about had enough.
I'm only at that bloody bakery because of you.
And I am trying.
I'm bloody knackered too.
So, how's about you get off my back and stop being such a bitch.
Wait, where you going? Shel! Have another glass, won't seem so bad.
Cheers.
Rich is right, - I'm just being a crabby bitch.
- You're knackered.
Give yourself a break.
Have some more curry.
Hmm.
So, Karen just made all this and then left? Kind of.
Oh, you dumped her.
I knew you would.
- How? - Well, you always do.
Dead keen to start with, dead donkey two months in.
- That's not true.
- It is.
Sarah says, you think if a woman really likes you there must be something wrong with her.
Bollocks.
Well, it's a shame.
Karen would've been good for you.
Let's talk about you now.
Okay.
I thought I was going to be someone in this bakeryjob.
You know, do more by myself.
But they're just treating me like I'm stupid.
- Who? - Rob and Sarah.
And then there's the wedding.
Hotel do, dresses, wedding planner.
Rob's spending a fortune.
I mean, I want to be happy for them, I do, but I'm thinking I'll never have that.
Rob worships her.
He really does.
And Rich worships you.
In his way.
I don't even think she's that bothered.
- What do you mean? - Sare, about getting married.
- What's she said? - Nothing, that's it.
I mean, if it was me getting married in a week, you couldn't shut me up.
Well, believe me, you and Rich are a damn sight more solid than Rob and Sarah.
- Yeah, well, you would say that.
- I know that.
What do you mean? Just, you never know the full story with relationships, in general.
- Oh, my God.
- What? When? - You've slept with her, haven't you? - Slept with who? Oh, don't.
- Me and Sarah? - No, you and Rob.
When? Ages ago.
When she was thinking of moving to Scotland.
That wasn't ages, that was weeks.
Look, I thought she was going.
I thought it was just that night.
- It didn't mean anything.
- You idiot.
Shel, don't say a word.
To anyone.
You know, I think we're going to do it.
Listen, I've got to dash home to check on Elen, but There was just something I wanted to get your thoughts on.
I hope you don't mind.
No.
Well, I know I work hard, Rob, but this is too much.
Sarah just thinks I haven't bothered, but I had it made specially.
Do you think it's all right? It's beautiful.
Oh, it's really beautiful.
Yeah? Thank you.
Right, see you later.
- See ya.
- See ya.
So, three days to go.
I've got another dress fitting.
Should only take 20 minutes, but she loves to drag it out.
Oh, how annoying.
Sorry? I'll try and get back by 11:00.
Just ring if there's an emergency.
Hello, Valley Bara.
Yes.
Today? Yeah, two seconds.
It's Food Standards.
They're doing a spot check this afternoon.
What? Cleaning now, on top of everything else.
Never gonna pass.
All the corners we've cut.
Yeah, why is it happening now? I rang HSE last week, for help.
Might have set off a few alarm bells.
Why didn't you just talk to me and Rob? Well, Rob was busy.
He told me to ring HSE.
This was the last thing we needed, Shel.
- I was trying to help.
- You should've asked.
What's done is done.
If you want to help, get stuck in.
Yeah, well, I've got to go and change.
Shel! - Don't talk to me like that.
- Well, you could've called me.
Well, I didn't want to.
You've been a bossy prima donna since we started here.
Well, all you've done is sulk and screw things up, Shel.
Oh, well, you're never here.
Always swanning off to meet your wedding planner.
Oh, that's what this is about, is it? My wedding.
No, but now you come to mention it, I spend more time with Rob than you do.
- Which is hardly surprising.
- What? - Well, you don't love him.
- Don't be ridiculous, of course I do.
Oh, then why did you shag Owen? What is it? One for fun, one to pay the bills? Inspector's here, then.
Looks happy so far.
What an effort.
Two more days, thank God.
- Well, it's not over yet.
- Yep.
I've got to check the delivery list.
If there's gonna be a mistake, it'll be today.
I'll get stuff ready for the mixers.
Oh, he's along there.
They've just brought him up from A&E.
- He never said he felt ill.
- Well, he wouldn't.
I'm sure he'll be fine.
How can you stand there and say that? Those hours were ridiculous.
He was working himself into the ground.
And you are union, you should've protected him.
It wasn't Pete's fault, Moira.
It was his son that Gwynfor was covering for.
Doing two men's jobs.
Because he was your friend.
And what did you do for him? Nothing.
So don't you stand there and tell me it'll be fine.
Don't you dare.
Well What's all this, then? Hmm.
Okay.
Thanks.
He's stable.
That's all they'll say.
Well, stable's good, isn't it? - Well, isn't it? - Yes, stable's good.
It wasn't your fault he had a weak heart.
Yeah.
- How many years have they been married? - I don't know.
There's a lot of love there, you know.
Loyalty.
A lifetime of it.
That's all that matters, isn't it? In the end.
What's the matter? I'm so sorry.
I'm so so I'm so sorry.
No, don't.
I can't.
- What's the matter? - I can't do this.
The what? The wedding? What? Can't What's wrong? You don't wanna do it because of Gwynfor? Or at all? No, no.
I want to.
I want to marry you.
See, I want to.
I want everything to be all right.
It's not gonna be.
'Cause I haven't been honest with you.
About what? Owen.
Me and Owen, erm slept together, a couple of months ago.
Before you asked me to marry you.
It just happened.
It didn't mean anything.
It didn't mean anything and I really wish it hadn't Er Erm - Where? - His house.
- When? - I just told you.
- No, where was I? - I don't know.
Work.
Here.
I came back and got into bed and you were asleep.
I don't understand.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
All this time, buying the bakery, it was before all that? Yeah.
I don't understand.
I slept with him and I wish I hadn't.
No, no, not that.
I don't understand you carrying on sleeping with me, and agreeing to marry me and talking about starting a family with me.
Unless you did it for the money.
So, my money would save that bakery? I didn't do it for the money.
I love you.
Oh, don't.
Well, it's the truth.
Why tell me now? What do you want? Were you scared I'd find out? Who else knows? No one else knows.
Shelly.
Shel So, the whole bakery They'll all know! They'll all be laughing at me.
It's not like that.
I'm having to tell you because I can't live with myself any more.
What What do you expect me to say? - "Thanks for your honesty, never mind"? - No.
What, then? What do you want from me? It was a mistake, it was once.
- I don't care! - It was a mistake.
Yes.
Yeah, yes, it was.
Where Where you going? Come on, come on! All right? What the hell? I know about you and Sarah.
I gave her everything you couldn't.
You just couldn't stand that, could you? Don't flatter yourself.
She came looking for me.
Well, I hope it was worth it.
'Cause I'm pulling every penny of mine out of Valley Bara.
- You can't.
- Everything you've all worked for, gone, because of you! You can beat the crap out of me now, and I won't stop you.
- Just don't wreck the buyout.
- Why? 'Cause you won't be the big man any more? When everyone knows it's your fault they're alljobless and broke.
Because it's not their fault.
But I want you to know how it feels when something you love is taken away from you.
Can you get these ready by 9:00? Thanks.
What the hell happened to you? Was it Rob? It was, wasn't it? He found out.
Oh, my God, this is my fault.
This is all my fault.
This time, I think it's all mine.
What happens if Rob pulls his money out of this place, then? If this collapses after all this work.
Nothing left to say, then, is there? I just wanted to say, well done, everyone.
We did it.
We've completed the Capaldi trial.
Drinks are on me tonight.
And believe me, you've earned every one.
Is there any news on Gwynfor? Pete's at the hospital now.
He'll let us know.
I didn't want you here.
But it's not about what I want, is it? Moira, I'm so sorry.
Seeing as you are here, you can help me.
There's his things to carry.
People are staring.
Can't blame them.
Go on.
Here, let me.
I thought they were on Rob, pre-wedding drinks.
It's my tab now.
Rob's not gonna have anything left by the time you've finished, is he? Except half of Valley Bara.
Chances are, he's not gonna want that, is he? Seriously, what happens now? - We'll sort something out.
- Oh, you don't know.
And I'm so tired I can't even give you the kicking you deserve.
I just want to get drunk, go home, hug my kids, and go to sleep.
Shut up and buy me a pint.
How long has it been going on for? - Owen and Sarah? - Don't ask me.
I wish I'd never said a word about it.
Could've been years.
No, it was just the once.
What do you mean, "just"? What about the big wedding? Well, I'm guessing that's off.
Cheers.
She's got a nerve.
Sarah, I am so sorry.
Me too.
I thought he might be here.
Have you heard anything? He's not answering his phone.
I rang round the hospitals, nothing.
The police say they can't do anything.
What would it take to make you stay? Stay? Keep all this going.
What if I left? Got out of your life and Sarah's? Too late.
Rob Can we have the music down, please? - Thank you.
- Rob, please, don't.
Er, everybody, erm If I could, I'd just like to say a few words.
First, I'd like to say thank you.
You have all worked so hard over the last four weeks.
I spoke to the manager at Capaldi's last night, and the contract is ours.
Now, when we took on the trial, I have to admit, I wondered whether you could stick it.
But you did.
You did.
You have all impressed me more than I imagined you could.
And so that makes what I have to say next quite difficult.
Moira.
I didn't want to come here.
I won't lie to you.
I know you're all proud of what you've done.
But there's been a price to pay.
And Gwynfor's paid it.
- Is she telling you off? - There he is.
Nothing compared to what I've had, believe me.
Look, I know I can go on a bit sometimes, but, er This needs to be said.
What we're seeing in this town of ours is the start of something extraordinary.
And I think we've forgotten that these last few weeks.
And yes, we've worked hard.
Too hard.
But we've done it for ourselves.
And for each other.
Because we can do things as a community we never could as individuals.
I used to think we were the last generation to believe that, that nowadays it was every man for himself, that we got used to the idea of doing well at someone else's expense.
But we have proved it doesn't have to be like that.
And that there is something to be proud of.
Well, hope we didn't interrupt anything.
Was there something you wanted to say? Yeah.
Yeah, there was.
