00:30Don't they say, if someone hasn't turned up in the first week or two, they're probably dead in a ditch?
00:48Nice one, Nico. Always the voice of optimism.
00:52I'm being realistic. How long's this dapping gone now?
00:56Weirdo, life goes on.
00:57What?
00:58Just jars, everything carrying on like normal.
01:03Are you sure there's nothing we can be doing?
01:05About my dad?
01:07No.
01:09Running out of places to look, really.
01:11And to be honest, it could be anywhere.
01:14Everyone just wants to help.
01:15Yes, they do. And they're being ever so nice. But I'm trying to learn to be patient.
01:23Are you going somewhere?
01:25What?
01:27Oh, yeah. Work.
01:29Listen, we're okay, aren't we? You and me.
01:31I think so.
01:34Marlon, none of this is your fault. No one knew.
01:39He'll turn up.
01:39Cheers, bye.
01:57Oi, do you reckon this is hyper-processed?
02:00I'm not sure hyper-processed is a thing, is it?
02:03I don't think that's what he said. But then again, he says a lot.
02:06Ultra-processed.
02:07Basically, is Lewis going to go in a mard because I've eaten all his organic stuff and replaced it with this?
02:17Hi, Paddy.
02:19How you doing? You alright?
02:20Yeah, I'm alright, yeah.
02:23I really am alright.
02:27Any news about your dad?
02:29No, nothing.
02:31Must be a nightmare.
02:33Anyway, while we're talking, would you mind stopping by the farm and having a look at one of the cows?
02:37It looks a bit lame to me.
02:39Moira would know straight off, but, well, she's not here.
02:43You're on the surgery?
02:45No, but I'm talking to you.
02:46I haven't got my schedule.
02:48Oh, come on, man. Listen, if we had seen anything going on, or if we had heard anything, we would have said.
02:53I know!
02:54Sorry, Ross. I'm not blaming you or anybody else.
03:01Celia should be locked up. Not Moira. I'm just, you know, I'm just...
03:05That'll do.
03:08I'll pop in later.
03:09Please tell me you've got some good news.
03:30Sorry.
03:33Every force in the country has your dad's photograph. You'll be the first to know if we do hit anything.
03:37Right, and Ray's killer? Have you got, er, what do you call it? A person of interest?
03:44I can tell you that we're very keen to talk to Celia Daniels.
03:48And are you any closer to finding her?
03:50I can't really talk to you about the ongoing investigation. Sorry.
03:52No, no, I know that, but it's worrying, isn't it? I mean, has she got my dad, or...?
03:56Try to stay positive. We've got a lot of resources focused on tracking her down. Okay?
04:10Dylan, is everything under control?
04:14Right, look, erm, I've just bumped into the police, and they're properly going after Celia for it.
04:20Yeah, I'm on my way.
04:22Tell me, mate.
04:28Oh, okay.
04:32I guess I'll be keeping my shoes on, then.
04:34For my own safety.
04:36You all right, Harry?
04:37Hey, how you doing?
04:40Look what I made.
04:42Oh, I know what that is. Don't tell me. Don't tell me.
04:46That.
04:48Well, whatever it is, I like it.
04:49Harry, why don't you go upstairs, brush your teeth, and choose some clothes, okay?
04:55Good boy.
05:00Why isn't he at school?
05:02Because I'm keeping him home.
05:04He was up half the night crying.
05:06He wants to know where his Uncle John is.
05:08So I finally told him.
05:10Told him he'd died.
05:11Good.
05:18You told him the truth.
05:19Well, not exactly.
05:20You told him the truth.
05:22So now you don't have to worry about it anymore.
05:24What?
05:25Vic, you need to keep holding it together.
05:27I'm sorry that I don't do the seasoned psychopath thing so well.
05:30You've got nothing to feel guilty about.
05:32You did what needed doing it.
05:33You probably saved lives.
05:34So now, we move on.
05:39For his sake.
05:40Mum!
05:49I've just been talking to Paddy.
05:52And?
05:53How is he?
05:54I don't know.
05:55I just got really nervous and waffled.
05:56I didn't expect us to pick up like nothing's happened.
06:01And he keeps saying you don't blame me.
06:02But it's been really distant.
06:04It must be horrible.
06:06Not knowing anything about that.
06:08Come in.
06:08Thanks.
06:14Is everything okay?
06:15Do you mind if I...
06:17Please, sit down here.
06:18Thanks.
06:19I've just got a few more questions.
06:21That's okay.
06:22Shouldn't take long.
06:24Mr Dingle.
06:25Can you tell me where you were on the day of January 2nd?
06:31January...
06:32That was the day of the serious road traffic accident.
06:35The one that involved quite a few members of the community.
06:38Is that the day that Ray died?
06:40I'm afraid I'm not at liberty to confirm anything at this stage.
06:43In other words, yes.
06:44So, Mr Dingle.
06:46You're not serious.
06:48We're still ruling people out.
06:50The sooner we can get a clearer picture of everyone's movements,
06:53the sooner we can leave you to your day.
06:55The sooner we can't do anything at this stage...
06:58It's a bit of a...
06:59It's a bit of a lie.
07:00I can't do anything at this stage.
07:01I can't do anything at this stage.
07:02I can't do anything at this stage.
07:03Hiya.
07:13What are you doing?
07:16It's good.
07:17You know, the police pinning it on Syria.
07:19Still got a little way to go here.
07:21Completely exhausted from lying to everyone.
07:23Even Marlum's like me best mate.
07:26Totally during me heading.
07:29How's he been?
07:31Er, quiet.
07:33But we've been over it again.
07:35I've said it so many times I'm starting to believe it myself.
07:38You know, kept on a farm in Hull.
07:40Escaped, found his way back.
07:42Now he's asking where in Hull.
07:44And what did you say?
07:45I just said it doesn't matter.
07:46You know, no one knows, so...
07:50He must be ready to be let out soon.
07:53Because you trust him.
07:55As in what, stick to the story?
07:59I hate this.
08:01I just want to get him out of there.
08:03Get him home.
08:09Hiya, Dad.
08:11Oh, well, honestly.
08:13Yeah, maybe.
08:14Oh, bye, love.
08:15Have a good day.
08:16Yeah.
08:17Love you.
08:20Oh, what was that?
08:21Why is he so moody all the time?
08:23Nick, if I tell you something, you won't tell anyone, will you?
08:28Um, yeah.
08:29Okay.
08:31Arthur stole drugs.
08:32What?
08:33Off Ray.
08:34I found them before he could do anything with them.
08:35Oh, my God.
08:36Like what?
08:37Take them?
08:38Sell them?
08:39No, I don't think so.
08:40I mean, he claims that he didn't know the drugs were in the bag.
08:42He was trying to be helpful.
08:43He wanted to grab Ray's passport before he vanished.
08:46Okay, so where are the drugs now?
08:49Oh, I don't know.
08:50I'll skip their water.
08:51I'll just chuck them down the sink.
08:52But anyway, it gets, um, it gets worse.
08:56We had a really bad argument and, um, I hit him.
09:06So, apart from Mr Dingle, Paddy Dingle, did anybody else see you?
09:11Er, Rona and Ross Barton.
09:13Um, April's missing so I went looking for her.
09:16I was worried and Ross offered to help but she came home so, false alarm.
09:21And, Rona, your movements that day?
09:24I'm sorry.
09:25Why is this necessary?
09:26Why now?
09:27Mum, it's okay.
09:28Um, I cancelled whatever appointments I had.
09:31Well, like Marlon said, we were just worried about April.
09:34So, there were no clients?
09:39Did you talk to or meet up with anybody that day?
09:42No.
09:43Just Marlon.
09:44So, are we suspects now?
09:45Is that it?
09:46Or are you not even allowed to tell us?
09:47As if we haven't all been through enough.
09:49We're still trying to locate Celia Daniels.
09:51And, in the meantime, we're putting together as clear a picture as we can of anyone who might have seen or spoken to Ray Walters leading up to his death.
09:59That's all.
10:03So, do you know how he died?
10:05I mean, it must make a difference, you know, if he was shot or...
10:09His injuries were consistent with asphyxiation.
10:14Er, thank you both.
10:15And, I'm sorry to take up your time.
10:24Did...
10:25What?
10:27Do you believe her?
10:28About us not being suspects?
10:29Why wouldn't I?
10:30Well, maybe you've never been sent to prison for a murder you didn't commit, but this is starting to feel like Graham all over again.
10:37I'm Robert Hale.
10:38You've been watching some old films?
10:39Ah, the old ones are the good ones.
10:40Might join you later.
10:41We can have a film night.
10:42He brings you the latest developments of late unfolding.
10:47The New York Times...
10:51Are you watching some old films?
10:53Ah, the old ones are the good ones.
11:06Might join you later.
11:07We can have a film night.
11:08film night. I got you some stuff from home. Here I go. Your favourite jacket, just in
11:20case you fancy having a stroll. New clean pyjamas. Whose is this? It's yours, Dad. Do you not
11:34remember? You can get all your old stuff back when we get you back home. Got you a sandwich
11:48from the shop as well. Cheers. Now, Dad, I heard that Dylan has been talking to you about how
11:58to answer, if anybody asks, and I'm sorry if it seems like we've been nagging you.
12:04Who's going to ask? Well, it doesn't matter, does it? But, so, do you remember where you've
12:11been all this time? All? Yeah, that's correct. On a farm? Yeah. What about Ray? It doesn't
12:31feel right. It just, it just don't feel right. Come on, Dad. None of this is your fault,
12:47here. Have your sandwich. So? I just thought, after what the police said today about Celia,
13:07we could maybe talk about bringing him home soon but flipping kidding myself. Well, what
13:12just happened? I couldn't hear him. What's the difference between me and Ray? Are you serious?
13:18Yeah. Locking up a confused old man. What are we doing? We're saving your dad from a life
13:23sentence, Paddy, alright? That's what we're doing. And we're saving all of us. For how long?
13:28We can't keep him locked up in there forever, can we? It's like we're just waiting for the
13:32police to catch up with us. So that's me now, you know, I cook Christmas dinner for gangsters,
13:37I hide evidence, and I hit my son. Well, if you ask me, Arthur was massively asking for it.
13:45I just, I feel like I'm losing him. I can't get through to him. After what he said? You know,
13:52what if you hadn't found the drugs? What then? Hmm? Blimey, we're talking about Arthur. Messing
13:58with drug laws. It's not exactly Walter White material. He would have been arrested within
14:03a week or were still murdered. You probably saved his life. Yeah, I think you're being very
14:07kind. I wonder if he'd say the same about Jimmy if he hit one of the boys. If it's not like
14:12you slipped on some knuckle dusters and went to town on him. Yeah, I know, but I drew blood.
14:15I mean, it was actually bleeding. Well then, just talk to him, like a grown-up. Make him
14:22understand that he's a good lad. He knows right from wrong. Just leave it. How is he?
14:34He's up and down. Keeps happening. He's fine one minute, then it's like he forgets or he
14:40doesn't understand. So then it's, when are we seeing Uncle John? Don't say it's gonna
14:45be okay. I was feeling his way through it. I mean, do you even know what death is at that
14:52age? He's never even lost a pet. Are you serious? Well, that's what people say, isn't it?
14:58When a kid loses a pet, it's the first time they encounter it. It's like practice. Right.
15:03And practice makes perfect, eh, Robert? What are you angry at me for? I'm not angry with
15:08you. I am repulsed by me. And you genuinely don't seem capable of understanding why.
15:14What you did was in self-defence. And the fact that you had the presence of mind to...
15:19Cover it up. You did what you had to do so that Harry carries on having a mum.
15:23I'm not even sure it was self-defence. Of course it was. How else would it have happened?
15:27But John loved me. He did. He was crazy. And dangerous. He hurt us both.
15:34So he had to die? No, that's not what I said. Because he's like a pet, isn't he? Yeah.
15:38He was dangerous so he should be put to sleep. Actually, I've got a question for you, Robert.
15:43John was a killer. So you. And now I am as well. What is it, like, something that runs
15:50in the family like bad blood? What's Harry gonna turn into? Don't, alright? Don't.
15:55I am not like you. I can't just forget. I'm never gonna get over this. Ever!
16:02Hey, Dad. Do you fancy a drink? Get you a frothy coffee if you want. Dad.
16:17What are you thinking? Ray. Oh, yeah. I... I hurt him.
16:32Dad, I've told you it's not your fault. Put it out of your mind. I need... I need to tell someone.
16:39Yeah? Well, that's exactly what you shouldn't do if you want to come home.
16:43I mean, is that what you want to do? Do you want to come home? I'm serious.
16:47I... I... I... I... I... I were... I were an hole. I were an hole. Okay, I just... I just...
16:55I just need to get it straight in my mind.
17:01Yeah.
17:03I know.
17:06Sorry.
17:09It's really exhausting how I come here.
17:20What happened to him, Paddy?
17:25Get that coffee.
17:34Hey. Everything okay?
17:37I just wanted to see you.
17:43Roma, you know before when that cop was round and I was talking to her about that day,
17:49you weren't really quiet.
17:52Did I?
17:53It was like...
17:55It was like you knew I wasn't telling her the whole story.
17:57No?
17:59Marlon, what is it?
18:00I didn't do anything to Ray.
18:04But I wanted to.
18:05So?
18:06We both wanted to. Everyone wanted to.
18:08No, no, no. But I actually went looking for him.
18:12With a knife.
18:14I did see Ross.
18:16That bit was true. I told him everything.
18:17Okay.
18:19And Ross?
18:20No, no, no. He didn't do it either. If he had, he would have told me.
18:22I'm so sorry. I'm sorry.
18:24Are we okay?
18:25Yes.
18:26Look, Marlon, I...
18:27I know, I know.
18:28And if there's one thing this whole catastrophe has to teach us as a family...
18:32I agree.
18:33...it is that we can't have secrets.
18:34Marlon, that wasn't why I was being quiet earlier.
18:37I've been worried.
18:38You've been looking at me thinking, is that who he is now?
18:40The kind of person who'd do that, or get Ross to.
18:42I'd be so scared you wouldn't see me in the same way again.
18:44You'd start to hate me.
18:46Sorry. Sorry. What was it?
18:47You were going to say something.
18:49It's not important.
18:56And hey, you.
18:57Why have you not been picking up your phone?
18:59We've been out a lot, searching, and the reception hasn't been great.
19:03Right, that's it.
19:04I'm coming home.
19:05What?
19:06I'm coming home, and I'm going to do the pestering for you.
19:08Look, the police.
19:09They won't know what's hitting.
19:11Right, babe.
19:12They will be sending the flying squad from London to find Dad.
19:15I'll be that annoying.
19:16They'll want to get rid of me.
19:17I really don't think you should.
19:19I'm booking a flight.
19:20No.
19:21What do you mean, no?
19:22I mean, no.
19:23I don't want you to come home.
19:25Things are delicate.
19:27You can easily make things worse.
19:28You can scare him off.
19:29Thanks very much, bud.
19:30You know what I mean.
19:32Yeah, I know exactly what you mean.
19:33You made yourself very clear.
19:34Look, I was only trying to help.
19:35I know you were, but sometimes...
19:38What?
19:39Sometimes what?
19:40But sometimes you can be a bit...
19:41I can't afford to make things worse.
19:43Well, don't you worry.
19:44I'm not going to scare you Dad away, right?
19:46I'm going to stay here.
19:47Where I'm appreciated.
19:49Mandy.
19:53Mandy.
19:54Oh, hi, love.
19:55I didn't know you were home.
19:56Fish fingers, chips and peas for tea.
19:57Yeah.
19:58Uh, yeah.
19:59Yeah, nice one.
20:00I mean, I know you're not a kid, but...
20:01Listen.
20:02Um...
20:03I know...
20:04that I made a big mistake.
20:05I still can't believe that I let somebody like Ray into my, well, into our house.
20:10He hid himself from me and I fell for him.
20:14And that's on me.
20:15I know that I made a big mistake.
20:19I still can't believe that I let somebody like Ray into my, well, into our house.
20:28He hid himself from me and I fell for him.
20:33And that's on me.
20:35Mum, it's all right.
20:38Is it?
20:40Is it really?
20:42What I did to you, that wasn't all right.
20:46And I'm really sorry.
20:49Mum, you seem nice.
20:55Do you think?
20:57I mean, I can't believe I met a man that made Jay look like Catcher the Century.
21:03Anyway, it's good we talked.
21:06Cuppa?
21:07Yeah.
21:12Dad!
21:17Got your posh coffee and your favourite slippers.
21:21Do you remember them?
21:23Mandy sends a love.
21:25And also, you better have your kecks on, cos I'm coming in.
21:29Dad?
21:30Dad.
21:31Who have you got me?
21:32Who have you been telling me?
21:33It's just about to be some kind of my magic.
21:34Dad?
21:35Dad?
21:36What's, what's interesting you doing?
21:37I'm happy to ask for a couple of years.
