 |
| "I'm only a parish councillor" |
He replies, “I’m only a parish councillor – stop treating me as if I were First Minister, then!”
 |
| "I'll show you what you can do for me" |
Dai approaches and would like a word with Mr White; “I’ll show you what you can do for me now,” he says, as he walks into the alley,
 |
| "Do you expect me ro stand here like Lot's wife" |
“Come on – do you expect me to stand here like Lot’s wife?”
 |
| "Oh, good morning" |
At Morawel, Hywel has been waiting for Ieuan to get up; when he finally stumbles into the kitchen, Hywel is sitting there with a cup of coffee. “Oh,” he groans, “Good morning.”
 |
| "It's actually afternoon" |
Hywel points out to him that it is actually afternoon.
 |
| "You left it at number 21" |
Then Ieuan cannot find his phone, so Hywel hands it to him, explaining that he left it at number 21. That’s why I came over to give it to you and found you . . .”
 |
| "Ww shall laugh about this one day" |
“About last night – we shall laugh about this one day,” Ieuan suggests, but Hywel begs to differ.
 |
| "You could have drowned" |
“You could have drowned – drinking in the bath like that!” Ieuan maintains that he was only having a nap, but is informed that he was almost unconscious. “How did you get into such a state?”
 |
| "I only had a couple of swigs" |
Ieuan says that he was doing some DIY and found a bottle of whisky in the cupboard; “I only had a couple of swigs.”Hywel insists that he does not get into that state after a couple of swigs,
 |
| "No more fuss' |
but his brother does not want any further fuss.
 |
| Kelly has her laptop in the Deri |
At the bar in the Deri, Kelly is looking intently at her laptop, then closes it and puts it into her bag.
 |
| Gaynor looks nervous |
Gaynor rather nervously walks in and Kelly greets her; she orders a coffee.
 |
| "Tough, isn't it?" |
Kelly can see that it is difficult for her and comments, “Tough, isn’t it? Are you meeting someone?”
 |
| "Just forcing myself out of the house" |
Gaynor replies that she is just forcing herself out of the house to face people again.
 |
| "All I wanted to do was hibernate" |
“Yep – all I wanted to do was hibernate after everything with Ed,” Kelly commiserates,
 |
| 'I can't hide for ever" |
but Gaynor appreciates that she cannot hide for ever.
 |
| "We haven't done anything wrong" |
“Why should we?” Kelly demands, “We haven’t done anything wrong – and don’t let anyone tell you differently, OK?”
 |
| "Big game today, boys" |
As she is about to leave, Britt and Mark arrive, in high spirits; “Big game today, boys!” Britt exclaims, “Win this and we’re going up to the next league! Nigel should be here by now – he’s usually here on the dot.”
 |
| "Didn't you know? Nigel's ill" |
Mark is surprised that she did not know that Nigel is ill and it will not be coming; Britt’s attitude changes immediately;
 |
| "We might as well kiss promotion goodbye" |
“We may as well kiss the promotion goodbye, then – and we can’t play without a full team, can we?”
 |
| "I could play . . ." |
Gaynor, further along the bar, volunteers that she could play;
 |
| ". . . I'm not very good" |
“I’m not very good – but it’s better than nothing, isn’t it?”
 |
| They do not have much choice |
They do not seem sure about that.
 |
| "Look at it – it's disgraceful!" |
Dai shows Siôn the vandalism to the war memorial; “Look at it – it’s disgraceful!”
 |
| "I'll discuss it with the council" |
Siôn agrees with him that vandalising public property like this is unforgivable and will discuss it with the council as soon as he can.
 |
| "Why do you need to discuss it?" |
“Why do you need to discuss it? Committees are just empty promises.
 |
| "My great uncle Walter was at El Alemein!" |
“This means a lot – my great uncle Walter was in El Alamein. They called him Walt Desert Rat!”
Siôn insists that he has to go through the right channels, because . . .
 |
| "Big manifesto out of the window already!" |
“Here we go – your first morning and your big manifesto is out the window already!” shouts Dai,
 |
| "Typical councillor!" |
“Typical councillor – you promise the world and achieve nothing!”
Siôn tries to protest that is not true, but Dai is not backing down;
 |
| "I'm disappointed in you" |
“Yes, it is – I’m disappointed in you – I was expecting better! I thought you were all about community – I’m disappointed. Thanks a bunch!”
 |
| Siôn has an idea |
His outburst makes Siôn think and he soon comes up with a plan of action.
 |
| Rhys does not waste any time |
As soon as Kelly is home at number 7, Rhys is also there and immediately kisses her. She offers him a cup of tea, but apparently that is not what he wants.
 |
| "We have the house to ourselves?" |
“Isn’t Griffiths back yet?” he enquires, “So we have the house to ourselves.”
 |
| "I've got hot date with a laptop" |
She agrees that they have, but adds, “I’ve got a hot date with a laptop.
 |
| "Proud owner of a new blog" |
“You’re looking at the proud owner of a new blog – well, nearly proud owner.”
 |
| "You kept that quiet" |
Rhys is surprised that she kept that quiet and she says that she did not want to broadcast it until she was finished;
 |
| "It's really cathartic" |
“And do you know what? I think it’s really good and I’m really enjoying it! And it’s really cathartic”
[involving the release of strong emotions through a particular activity or experience]
 |
| "Do you know what else is really cathartic?" |
Rhys takes her hand and asks, suggestively, “Do you know what else is really cathartic?”
 |
| "I have to crack on with this" |
She laughs at his innuendo, but continues that she really needs to crack on with the editing, inviting him to come back later.
 |
| "Half past six – and I'm all yours" |
“About half past six – and I’m all yours.” This is an irresistible offer and he tries to kiss her again,
 |
| She is concentrating on the job in hand |
but she is concentrating on the laptop.
 |
| Britt throws a dart . . . |
The darts match is in progress,
 |
| . . . achieving a good score |
with Britt managing to get a good score.
 |
| "That video message meant a lot" |
Gaynor brings Mark a pint to say thank you; “That video message meant a lot – I’m sure it wasn’t easy for you –
 |
| "Something clicked" |
“and it made a difference, hearing that so many people could see how much control Tom had over me. I don’t know, something clicked.”
 |
| "I'm trying to understand" |
Mark admits that he is trying to understand, but then it is Gaynor’s turn with the darts
 |
| "I'll help you" |
and Mark says that he will help her.
 |
| "I feel as good as new now" |
At Morawel, Ieuan says that he feels as good as new now, but is going to stay there another night as there is still a bit of work to do. He tells Hywel to go if he wants.
 |
| "So you can get drunk again?" |
“What? So you can drink this and get drunk again?” as he produces another bottle of whisky which he has found in Ieuan’s bag.
 |
| "I'm even more worried now" |
“ was worried– I’m even more worried now I’ve found this! You brought a bag full of bottles to get drunk on your own.”
 |
| "There's no law against that" |
Ieuan maintain that there is no law against that, but Hywel demands why he is doing this; “Just tell me you’re not going to do anything stupid.
 |
| "Why are you getting into such a state?" |
“Why are you getting into such a state?”
 |
| "Because I'm ashamed!" |
Ieuan answers, “Because I’m ashamed!”
 |
| "I can't cope without Anita" |
He sits down on the sofa and confesses, “I’m ashamed because I can’t cope without Anita. I came here to escape, to forget, just for one night.
 |
| "I look forward to seeing her each day" |
“The thing is, I look forward to seeing her every day. I count the minutes on the clock – but once I get to Brynawelon, I don’t want to go in.
 |
| "I have to sign a blinking book to see my own wife!" |
“I have to sign a blinking book to see my own wife! And her life is shrivelling into one warm little room. I have to leave her there, on her own – time after time.
 |
| "There's no escape, is there?" |
“Sorry, I thought I’d tricked myself – running away from my problems – but there’s no escape, is there?
 |
| "I hate my life, Hywel!" |
“This is my life now – I hate it, Hywel!”
 |
| Siôn is concocting something . . . |
In the shop flat, Siôn is using one of Eileen’s mixing bowls to produce a concoction which appears to include icing sugar, lemons and vinegar, among other things. He has made quite a mess in the process.
 |
| . . . much to Eileen's horror |
Eileen comes in, boasting that she has bought steak to celebrate, but he tells her, “Sorry, not now – I’m busy.”
“What on earth is that?” she demands;
 |
| "Proof that I take my duties seriously" |
he replies that it is proof that he takes his duties seriously, picks up the basin of mixture plus a bucket and walks out of the flat, informing her that the community has to come first.
 |
| "You can't leave my kitchen like this!" |
“You can’t leave my kitchen like this!” she complains, but he still takes no notice.
 |
| The darts match was a disaster |
Britt, Gaynor and Mark sit glumly by the bar; Gaynor apologises and Mark does not believe they have actually lost by 100 points before.
 |
| "It must be a new record!" |
Britt calls it a new record, which Gaynor regards as something, at least.
 |
| "Damage to the wall – and floor" |
“I should have a word with Cassie – we may have to cover the cost of damage to the wall – and the floor,” Britt groans.
 |
| "I'm sorry, too, Gaynor" |
Gaynor again says how sorry she is, with Mark adding, “So am I – I know I’ve said some terrible things to you.”
 |
| "We all got caught up in Tom's net" |
She appreciates that they all got caught up in Tom’s net and now they have to try and make sense of everything.
“The only way we are going to be able to do that is by being honest with each other.”
 |
| "I want us to be all right" |
Mark wants them to be all right and for things to be like they used to be, but every time he thinks of Cheryl – dead – and Gaynor . . .
 |
| "It's right that you feel like that" |
But now he is becoming tearful, which Gaynor can understand; “It’s right that you feel like that. Look, I’m not saying this to make you feel guilty, honestly,
 |
| "She would have loved to see us playing darts" |
 |
| "I'm trying to take back control of my life" |
“That’s why I’m trying to take back control of my life – coming down to the village, seeing people, allowing my solicitor to talk to the CPS.”
 |
| "And playing darts!" |
Mark adds to that list, “Playing darts.”
 |
| "I can't let Tom win" |
Gaynor is adamant that she cannot let Tom win – for Cheryl’s sake and once again apologises for the darts.
 |
| The back garden at Morawel |
In the back garden of Morawel, overlooking the football pitch,
 |
| "It must have been a strain" |
Hywel appreciates, “It must have been a strain,” and Ieuan does not dispute that, but at least he was busy and his days were full.
“Now, the hours just stretch out in front of me – I don’t know how to fill them.”
 |
| "Have you talked to Kelly?" |
Hywel asks whether he has talked to Kelly,
 |
| "Kelly's suffered too much already" |
but he replies, “Kelly’s suffered enough without having to listen to me. She has her own life to live – like you. I’m not as stupid as you think, I know I’m a nuisance, in the way, looking for company – anything to help pass the hours of the day.”
 |
| "Anita still needs you" |
Hywel stresses that Anita still needs him,
 |
| "She doesn't remember if I've been or not" |
but Ieuan sighs, “She doesn’t remember if I’ve been or not, that’s the plain truth. But of course I’ll be there for her., every step of the way. I just feel that she’s slipping further away from me every day.
 |
| "I want to drag her back . . ." |
“I just want to hold her hand, you know, just to drag her back –
 |
| ". . . but I can't" |
“but I can’t.”
 |
| Hywel is not used to this sort of thing |
Hywel rather awkwardly put an arm around his brother.
 |
| "Are you ready?" |
Siôn appears to have finished his task when Eileen and Dai walk towards him; “Are you ready?” he asks.
“For what? A recount so we can elect someone who’ll do something?” grumbles Dai; Eileen wants to know what is going on as she needs to make dinner.
 |
| Dai is amazed at the transformation |
Suddenly, Dai changes his attitude; “Good grief! Things are shining now!” Eileen maintains that paint does not come off easily and wonders how he did it.
 |
| Siôn reveals his secret recipé |
“Spirits, baking soda and the passion to serve the community,” is the reply.
 |
| "I don't often admit I'm wrong . . ." |
Dai declares, “I don’t often admit that I’m wrong, but I was wrong about you. Top man – that means a lot!”
 |
| "Garry wants a chat with you" |
Eileen also congratulates Siôn and informs him that Garry came to the flat, wanting a chat with Siôn. This news does not appear to be very welcome.
 |
| "You'll be like the Pied Piper" |
Dai, over by the war memorial, remarks, “There we are – that’s how it will be from now on. There will always be someone after you – you’ll be like the Pied Piper.”
 |
| Kelly is working in the laptop |
Kelly is working on the laptop when there is a knock at the door and she discovers that it is Rhys again,
 |
| Rhys can tell that something is wrong |
who immediately notices that something is wrong; “We did say 6:30 didn’t we?”
 |
| "It's this blinkin' blog, not you!" |
“It’s this blinkin’ blog, not you!”
 |
| "You were buzzing earlier" |
He recalls that she was buzzing about it earlier, “But that was before I looked at it with fresh eyes –
 |
| "There's no structure, no direction" |
“there’s no structure, no direction, nothing!” she moans.
“Life as a carer,” he reads, “It’s about you and Anita.” Kelly assures him that there is no way she is posting it, but he points out that she has already written it.
 |
| "It's not good enough, OK?" |
“It’s not good enough, Rhys, OK? I wanted something that would, like resonate, not sugar-coat things –
 |
| "Just tell it like it is!" |
“you know, just tell it like it is.” He is sure that is what she has done, but she is equally sure that she has not.
“I mean, being a carer is, like, really tough, isn’t it? But it’s also a real privilege and this just doesn’t reflect that!
 |
| "I'm just, like, rambling" |
“I’m just, like, rambling.”
 |
| "It will be incredible!" |
“Kell, knowing you, it’ll be incredible, like everything else you do!” Rhys maintains, in a rather biased fashion.
 |
| "You haven't read it!" |
She points out that he has not read it, so he demands to do so,
 |
| "It will help me understand" |
so it will help him understand what she is going through.
 |
| "Read it – then I'm deleting it!" |
“Fine, read it – and then I’m deleting it!” she tells him;
 |
| He sits down with the laptop |
he sits down in the chair and starts reading.
 |
| Gaynor looks at the scan photo |
Gaynor is looking at the scan photo given to her by Lois, when there is knock at the door and she finds that it is Mark.
 |
| "I just wanted to say that you're right? |
He says that he is not staying, but just wanted to say that she was right.
 |
| "You and I go back a long way" |
“You and I go back a long way, don’t we? Tom has no right to destroy that. No-one else will really ever understand what we’ve been through, so I think it makes sense for us to help each other.”
 |
| "Cheryl would be so proud of you" |
Gaynor smiles that Cheryl would be so proud of him and he leaves the house again,
 |
| "No more darts, OK" |
but not before specifying, “No more darts, OK? We were all lucky to get away in one piece, weren’t we?”
 |
| "You have to share this, Kell" |
After having read the blog, Rhys instructs Kelly, “You have to share this –it’s so honest.” She still refuses to do so.
 |
| "I was really there with you!" |
“I can be a hard nut to crack, but this – I was really there with you.”
 |
| 'That's because you know me" |
Kelly replies that is different, because he knows her;
 |
| "No-one else would be interested" |
“No-one else would be interested.” He insists that of course they would be
 |
| "Think of all those carers out there" |
and that she should think of all those carers out there who feel just like she does. This would really help them.
 |
| "It's so clunky, seriously!" |
“Rhys, it’s so clunky, seriously!” she protests, but he points out that being a carer is not easy, it is clunky.
 |
| "It's great, Kell!" |
It’s great, Kell!” She justifiably accuses him of bias, arguing that they are in the honeymoon stage;
 |
| "If I wrote a shopping list, you'd love it" |
if she wrote a shopping list, he would love it.
“Seriously, thanks for your kind words, right?
 |
| "I want to forget I wrote it" |
“But it was a stupid idea and I want to forget I ever wrote it. Takeaway? My treat?”
 |
| When Kelly is out of sight . . . |
He agrees and when she walks into the kitchen, he checks to make sure she is not looking
 |
| . . . he publishes it, nevertheless |
and publishes the blog without her knowledge.
 |
| 'Your blood is live' |
The screen informs him, ‘Your blog is live!’
