New best friend (1x8)

Data emisji: Paź 29, 2001

Paul gets out of prison to discover that Lee's mother has commandeered his bedroom, the policeman who arrested him has moved into Di's bed while Sean is working for his hated rival Reuben, residing in a penthouse apartment with high class prostitutes on tap and driving a top of the range BMW. Paul ends up in the pub - he talks to Tim about his bad luck, blaming whoever dumped Ronnie Bryant's body in the canal for the whole, sorry mess. On the way home he is kidnapped and driven to a remote field where he discovers, to his horror, that it is Ronnie Bryant's killer who has swagged him. The assassin informs Paul that he has two choices : thirty grand in cash and leave Acton forever, or his 'old life' back. Paul returns to the pub where the Annual Karaoke Challenge is in full swing. He discovers that Lee's mother is living and working in the pub, DI Dodds has left Di, Reuben has put his hands up for the gear, and that Tim is the mystery assassin. He sings 'Love Lift Us Up Where We Belong' as a karaoke tune, joined by the newly freed Sean. Together they re-enact the famous Richard Gere/Debra Winger last scene from 'AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN'.
