00:30Robert
00:32I'm picking up Harry
00:35Might have took him for a quad bike ride
00:37I thought he'd be back by now
00:38Better if you've got time for a cuppa
00:40Yeah, put the kettle on
00:42How's Cain doing?
00:52Okay
00:53The doctors want to keep him in for another night
00:57It could have been a lot worse
01:00If the buckshot
01:02Hit him a few centimetres either side
01:04Well, you know
01:06He is so lucky that you stopped him going after John
01:09Thank you so much for that, by the way
01:11And getting him in the ambulance
01:12Mark?
01:14Yeah, he's getting there
01:15I was just saying to Caleb
01:18I mean, we could have lost them both
01:20Are they going to be okay?
01:24Yeah, in time
01:25Cain should be resting
01:27Avoiding stress
01:29He was hoping that one day
01:32That he'd get justice for a night
01:34But it's never going to happen now, eh?
01:37Sorry
01:37Well, we all are
01:39All we can do is pick ourselves back up
01:42And carry on somehow
01:44It's what we do, right?
01:47Yeah, well, eh
01:48I'd best go check on Harry and Matty
01:50See where they've got to get the lad home
01:52Oh, well, what about your tea?
01:53Er, Matty can have it
01:55Moira, listen
01:57If you need anything
01:59Just give us a call, right?
02:03Hey, look
02:03I appreciate everything
02:06It means a lot, Robert
02:08Take care
02:10I'm going to think about what my dad's been doing
02:23How can a human being do that to another?
02:28Thank you
02:28To you
02:29It's been the worst few weeks of our lives
02:32I've never been so scared
02:33Yeah
02:34And now the police know about Callum
02:36And I'm going to prison
02:38That is not going to happen
02:39Sweetheart, the police have released you on bail
02:41For now
02:42DS Walsh said it's not off
02:44But they know what Ray and Celia put you through
02:46But they still aren't there, Dad
02:49And when Celia finds out that I've talked
02:51She will go mental
02:52Ray and his mum aren't our problem
02:53Not anymore
02:54The whole operation's been blown apart
02:56They'll be miles away by now
02:58They won't be able to hide forever
02:59They'll find him
03:01The police will find him
03:02They'll bring him home
03:03But
03:03The person who comes back
03:07If he comes back
03:09He will
03:09You can't give up hope, Paddy
03:11But what he's had to endure
03:13What he's had to suffer
03:14He won't
03:15He can't be the same person
03:18So I might have lost him anyway
03:21I've only been in here five minutes
03:26I'm sick of the hospital food already
03:27Which is why
03:28I have brought you a lovingly curated sandwich
03:31Although Houghton General
03:33Is a centre of excellence for many fields
03:36Catering is not one of them
03:37Wow
03:38Brilliant
03:40One word from you
03:43I could be out of here today
03:44You already know the answer to that
03:47I'm not used to mooring here
03:49All this mess with Celia
03:51Yeah, shocking
03:53Yeah, she was in business with her mum
03:56She's going to be up against it
03:58She needs me at home
03:59The police are going to be asking her questions
04:01It would be a bad idea
04:03To discharge yourself
04:04Against medical advice
04:06Especially when they'll probably send you home tomorrow
04:08So what's wrong with today?
04:10Okay, your consultant's kept you in for two reasons
04:12Firstly, to monitor your recovery
04:14From a gun-shocked wound
04:15And then it's also to have a chance
04:18To investigate whatever this abnormality is
04:21I'm telling you
04:22It's not cancer
04:23It can't be
04:24If you're in here
04:26They can act quickly
04:28If these results come back
04:31And there is a tumour
04:32It's best to be prepared
04:34You may need to make some big decisions
04:37Pretty fast
04:39I know that's tough
04:41With everything going on at home
04:43But trust me
04:44The best place for you right now
04:47Is here
04:48Mandy
04:51Just stay there
04:53Yeah, but Tina's still on remand
04:56If you come back from Ireland now
04:57Who's going to look after the kids?
04:58Until my dad turns up
05:01There's nothing you can do
05:02Dylan's here
05:04I'd better go
05:04Yeah, I love you too
05:06Alright
05:06Bye
05:07Bye-bye
05:07How'd you get on?
05:10Er, yeah
05:11Okay
05:11Dylan's corroborated a lot of what April Windsor has told us
05:15Actually, if you've got a minute
05:17I'd like a word about your dad
05:18Yeah?
05:19Have you found him?
05:26Not yet
05:27But we've searched Celia's farm
05:29And found evidence that the attic has been occupied
05:32Erm, by who?
05:34How many people?
05:36Well, the farm was abandoned when we arrived
05:37And we've not found any of the victims yet
05:40But from what we've seen and what we know
05:42Half a dozen or more
05:44We think they were used as forced labour on the poultry farm
05:47And then bussed out to other employers as and when
05:50But I don't understand
05:51Why didn't my dad run?
05:53Why didn't he just ask for help?
05:56Fear
05:57One word out of line and there'd have been reprisals
06:01It can be a complicated relationship
06:04Traffickers prey on the vulnerable
06:06Condition them so they fear the rest of the world
06:09My dad was a professional wrestler
06:12I'm afraid it might be best if you do prepare yourself for the worst
06:16It's not unusual for traffickers to find ways to prevent their victims from talking to us
06:22We are doing everything we can
06:25And I really hope to find your dad safe and well
06:28Sorry, I do have to take this
06:31We'll be in touch
06:33Okay?
06:37Hello?
06:38Yes, Marsh?
06:39No, it's all out there, finally
06:40I should be relieved
06:43I just feel numb
06:47I wish you'd told me
06:49I hated having to lie to you, Mum
06:52Getting you to move out
06:53But it was the only way we could keep you safe
06:56I'd much rather have been here with you all
06:59We've missed you, Mum
07:00So much
07:01Please come back home
07:04There's nothing I'd like more
07:07I'll get that
07:09Paddy, you know
07:12He's right about Bear when he does turn up
07:15Ray and Celia didn't think twice about Tom and I was running Dylan down
07:19And that was in plain sight
07:20What must they have put him through?
07:26Hi, I'd like to know the word with April, if that's okay
07:29I'll tell you, you're here
07:30She's already told you everything she knows
07:32April Poppet, the police want to see you
07:35You know, it's been a long day
07:38Anything else, we want our solicitor present
07:40There'll be no need for that
07:41April
07:43Are you here to arrest me?
07:46That's not why I'm here
07:47Earlier today, you told me that you were led to believe you'd fatally harmed Callum Swift
07:52Did you find his body?
07:55Well, we made some inquiries
07:56And he'll be relieved to know that Mr Swift is alive and well
08:00So, he's not dead?
08:07He wasn't when I spoke to him half an hour ago
08:09Oh, thank God
08:10Once we tracked him down, we asked him to come in to answer a few questions
08:13After which I arrested him for a number of crimes
08:17Including solicitation
08:18And we've detained him pending further inquiries
08:22I didn't kill him
08:26No
08:27Ray Walters and Celia Daniels lied to you
08:31We've seen this pattern before
08:33It's a tactic
08:34A way of keeping their victims under control
08:37That's what you are, April
08:39That's what you are
08:40A victim, just like all the rest of them
08:41You've been so brave
08:43I'm so proud of you
08:45Oh, Paddy
08:51Sorry it doesn't even come close
08:54Have you had any news from the police?
08:57No, nothing
08:58Still looking for me dad
08:59And the others
09:01Ray and Celia still have him?
09:04What the police reckon?
09:04Poisonous little rat, Ray
09:07Yeah, well, trust me
09:08It's no joke when you find out that you're actually...
09:10Are you sleeping with the devil?
09:11Yeah
09:11Just like me
09:13Not that I did
09:14I didn't get close enough
09:15Sorry, mate
09:17You wouldn't even have asked her out
09:18If I pushed you into it
09:20Well, now I know what she really is
09:22I wish I'd never bothered
09:23Hindsight
09:24It's a wonderful thing
09:26Hang on
09:27Did you never notice anything of it?
09:30Odd
09:30No strange messages or phone calls?
09:32No
09:33Just like Bob didn't realise that Celia trafficked people
09:36Paddy
09:37I don't know what to say, Nate
09:40Say
09:43I heard about John
09:44I was hoping I'd waste another thought on him
09:47He's gone
09:48It's over
09:49I'm sorry
09:52I know you wanted justice for Nate
09:55Yeah, well
09:56Maybe I haven't got it
09:59Not the way I wanted to
10:00But
10:00He'll pay for what he did
10:03In hell
10:04Listen, if there's anything you need
10:06Or anything you want
10:07You just call me, okay?
10:08Thank you
10:09And the church will be open for quiet contemplation
10:12And prayers for a bear safe with her
10:14Are you going to tell us there's a god after all this?
10:17I appreciate these are challenging times, Jimmy
10:19Challenging?
10:21My granddaughter's been abused by a drug dealer
10:23Along with half the family
10:25Paddy's dad enslaved
10:26That's before you even start on John Sugden
10:29I can't take much more of this
10:32I just try and act normal
10:33And behave like you
10:34Like what?
10:35Like I haven't just killed my brother
10:36Vic
10:37Robert will be home with Harry now, so
10:38Come and go, please
10:39I was going to nip in and see Eve
10:44Is that alright?
10:45Course it is
10:46You never need to ask
10:47Mission accomplished
10:52Murray worked in on me
10:54But I reckon I managed to spin things
10:55Passports?
10:57Shoved on a bookshelf
10:59In the middle of the living room
11:01Ready to be found by whoever you've tipped off
11:03Good man
11:05Right, well, now I've done your dirty work
11:08Let's talk terms
11:09Okay
11:10I'll be up as soon as I can
11:12Kim, I have news
11:16You and me both
11:18Robert, I heard about John
11:22How are you all?
11:23Glad to see the back of him
11:24So glad
11:26Robert and Victoria have reconsidered their options
11:30And they have kindly agreed to sell us their share of Butler's Farm
11:33It's coming from the man who swore he'd rather sell his soul than take a penny from us
11:40I've changed my mind
11:41Well, I made him an offer that he would be stupid to refuse
11:44But Moira, she'll come round eventually
11:48You still think that's an option?
11:51She'll sell
11:51I have agreed to let Robert have tenancy
11:55Well, I'd wanted in writing that you won't ever abuse our trust
12:00Like Celia
12:02By using the premises to run a criminal operation
12:05A drug cartel right under our noses
12:07Who'd have thought?
12:09Oh
12:09It's far worse than that
12:11Celia and Ray have been using that filthy attic
12:15As some kind of prison dormitory
12:18For trafficked people
12:20What?
12:21Yeah, seems like she and her son abused
12:24Illegal migrants
12:25Lost souls
12:27Street sleepers
12:28Enslaved them as forced labour
12:30If that wasn't shocking enough
12:32Paddy's father was one of them
12:35There
12:49He was enslaved
12:51Yeah, no, the police have smashed the operation
12:54He's still missing
12:55Ray and Celia must have taken him with them
12:59I've made it perfectly clear to that detective on the phone
13:03That we had no idea
13:05But this has PR disaster written all over it
13:09So we're supposed to police our own tenants?
13:12That's what I'll be telling the authorities
13:14I mean, they're searching the place now
13:16Heaven knows what they'll find
13:18Those poor people
13:20Locked up, treated worse than animals
13:23It's heartbreaking
13:25And look, I've, er, I've got to get up there
13:29Human trafficking?
13:37You're telling me you didn't know about this?
13:38I'm as shocked as you are
13:41If Moira gets found with those passports
13:43She could go down for this
13:44Setting her up for paying cash in hand
13:48That's one thing
13:48This, this is massive
13:49Moira's done nothing wrong
13:51Okay, well then
13:51If you want to go to Moira
13:53And explain to her exactly what you stashed on her shelf
13:56Please be my guest
13:57But do not now pretend to have grown a conscience
13:59Move on with your life
14:01I'll be in touch
14:03When I have a contract for you to sign
14:05I just wanted to put April's mind at rest
14:17And I appreciate that so much
14:19We'll be in touch
14:21Listen, I don't
14:22I don't suppose you can tell me what happens from here
14:24The kind of charges April might still face
14:27It's going to take a while before we have the full picture
14:30All I can say is
14:31Try to take it one day at a time
14:33Thank you
14:35Take care of yourselves
14:36Excuse me
14:38There's
14:41There's something you need to see
14:43Ray
14:47I never could stand him
14:48Cocky
14:49Up himself
14:50Yeah, well
14:51Maybe he was just with me to
14:52Look respectable
14:54It's Caleb
14:56Again
14:56I need to go and do this job
14:58So
14:59I'll call you later, okay?
15:01Thanks
15:01Eve said to ask if she can have fish victims for a tea
15:05You two have a nice time?
15:08Yeah
15:08She needs a little hug, that's all
15:10Listen, Paddy, the police are on it
15:13They're going to find your dad soon
15:14Do you know what the detective told me?
15:18These monsters
15:19When they're on the run
15:21They usually dispose of the victims
15:23Stop them talking
15:25Kill them
15:27They wouldn't
15:29Would they?
15:30Hey, Paddy, I can't tell you how sorry I am
15:33Sorry for what?
15:35For going into business with people traffickers
15:36So am I
15:37You think I had any idea?
15:41How could she?
15:42None of us did
15:43I don't think anyone's suggesting that's the case
15:45And yet
15:45You knew
15:46That she'd forged your signature
15:48You knew that she was dodgy
15:49But you never thought to ask
15:50Even a few questions
15:52About what she was really up to on that farm
15:54No
15:54I thought she was dishonest, yes
15:57But
15:57I never would have thought she was up to anything like this
16:00I mean
16:00You can't blame Moira
16:01For this
16:02I mean, that'd be like
16:03Blaming Aaron for what John did
16:05When I think about my dad
16:08Locked up
16:10Humiliated and forced to work
16:12It's alright, gotta go
16:17Paddy
16:17It just makes me sick to think those low lives I'd bear
16:24Working him like a dog, probably
16:26It's just horrible
16:27And then to find out he was this close to home all that time
16:30He must be doing Paddy's head in
16:31And you know what?
16:34If I ever got the chance to get my hands on that Ray
16:36Or his mum
16:36You do to them what I did to John?
16:39No
16:40Vic
16:41You've got to stop doing this
16:42How can I?
16:44You know Harry's just asked me why Uncle Aaron was hurt in a car crash when he's such a good driver
16:49It's a fair point
16:51And he believed what I told him
16:53Cos he trusts me
16:55If he'd any idea what I'd done
16:57He never will
16:58And before in the pub
17:00I couldn't stand it
17:01I'm trying so hard to look normal but
17:03I feel like I look different
17:06Like everyone can tell that I'm a murderer
17:07Vic
17:08We've been through this
17:10You did what you had to do
17:12It won't look like that with the footage Joe's got
17:15If he takes it to the police I could lose everything
17:18It's not gonna happen
17:19We've got this
17:20We've got your back
17:21I'm so glad I've got you two
17:24And we're going nowhere
17:26You did what you had to do to keep your family safe
17:29And now we're gonna do the same for you
17:31I promise
17:34We'll all get through this stronger
17:36It's Ray's
17:47I'd know it anywhere
17:48Okay thanks
17:50If I could ask you to stay back
17:53Whilst we secure the scene
17:54What's going on?
17:56It's Ray's car
17:57He must have dumped it
17:59DS Walsh
18:00Emmerdale
18:01Village Hall
18:02I'm gonna need forensics here
18:04ASAP
18:04Thanks
18:06Forensics?
18:08Thanks for your help
18:08We'll take it from here
18:09It's Jay he's not getting back to me messages so
18:17Sorry mate
18:18We're gonna have to pick up his work
18:19What by splitting myself and off
18:22I'm already too busy as it is
18:23Look the Manchester client's going off his head
18:25Because he's not done that job has he
18:26Did you tell him there was a massive crash?
18:31Where have you been?
18:32Looking out for Laurel
18:33You know all this mess with Ray
18:35She's struggling
18:37Yeah yeah I know
18:38Yeah Charles filled me in
18:39It's terrible
18:39But you know you can
18:40Look out for Laurel in your own time
18:42The client's expecting you
18:44You need to get over there tonight
18:46Yeah and I can't do it
18:47Well don't look at me
18:51I mean
18:51I didn't get home till stupid o'clock this morning
18:54You know I was stuck on the moors
18:56For hours waiting for them to clear that road
18:58Yeah yeah
18:59Now it is clear
18:59So you either get in that van
19:01Drive over to Manchester
19:03Or you find yourself another job
19:04You might want to check
19:08That all the boxes that are already in there
19:10That they haven't shifted
19:11Last thing that we need
19:12Complaints that
19:13Stock's been damaged in transit
19:15Right fine
19:16You know what
19:18You have it your way
19:19But I am telling you now
19:21I am too tired
19:23So if I have a crash on the way
19:25We both know who's to blame
19:27All right
19:30All right
19:31I suppose a few hours won't make much difference
19:34But you do it tomorrow
19:35And you set off first thing
19:36When's Dad coming home?
19:54Tomorrow
19:55Do you fancy a story?
19:57I'm too old for stories
20:00Not to me you're not
20:01Come on
20:02That's nice
20:09Right
20:11A long time ago
20:14An evil man terrorised a whole village
20:19The villagers were fearful
20:24Because their protector
20:26The great king had been wounded in battle
20:29The king was sad
20:33He and his queen had been betrayed
20:38By people they thought they could trust
20:41And throughout the kingdom
20:44Fear and mistrust grew
20:47Some people called for help from unexpected allies
20:53When other people
