00:00You
00:05You
00:10Robert
00:12I'm picking up Harry. Might I tuck him for a quad bike rider
00:15Thought he'd be back by now
00:17But if you've got time for a cuppa
00:19Yeah, put the kettle on
00:20You
00:25How's Cain doing?
00:28How's Cain doing?
00:30Okay
00:32The doctors want to keep him in for another night
00:35It could have been a lot worse
00:38If the buck shot
00:40Put him a few centimetres either side
00:42Well
00:43You know
00:44He
00:45It's so lucky that you stopped him going after John
00:47Thank you so much for that by the way
00:49And getting him in the ambulance
00:50Muck
00:52Yeah, he's getting there
00:54I was
00:55Just saying to Caleb
00:56I mean
00:57We could have lost them both
01:00They're gonna be okay
01:01Yeah
01:02In time
01:03Cain should be ready
01:05Stressed in
01:06Avoiding stress
01:07He was hoping that one day
01:10He'd get justice for a night
01:12But it's never gonna happen now
01:13Eh
01:14I'm sorry
01:15Well
01:16We all are
01:17All we can do is pick ourselves back up and
01:20Carry on somehow
01:22It's what we do
01:23Right?
01:25Yeah
01:26Well er
01:27I'd best go check on Harry and Marty
01:28See where they've got to
01:29Get the lad home
01:30Oh

01:31Er

01:34Well listen
01:35Erm

01:40Hey look
01:41I
01:42I appreciate everything
01:45Means a lot
01:46Robert
01:47Take care
01:50And
01:51He
01:52His
01:53Everyone
01:54He
01:55He
02:04I
02:05I
02:07I
02:09I
02:10I
02:12I
02:14I
02:15I
02:16I
02:17I
02:19I
01:55Nothing.
02:00Think about what my dad's been through.
02:03How can a human being do that to him?
02:05Another.
02:07To you.
02:08It's been the worst few weeks of our lives.
02:10I've never been so scared.
02:12Yeah.
02:13And now the police know about Callum.
02:15And I'm going to prison.
02:16That is not gonna happen.
02:17Sweetheart, the police have released you on bail.
02:19For now.
02:20DS Walsh said it's not love.
02:22But they know what Ray and Celia put you through.
02:25But they're still out there, Dad.
02:27And when Celia finds out that I've talked, she will go...
02:30You're mental.
02:31Ray and his mum aren't our problem.
02:32Not anymore.
02:33The whole operation's a bit blown apart.
02:34They'll be mad.
02:35They're miles away by now.
02:36They won't be able to hide forever.
02:38They'll find them.
02:39The police will find them.
02:40They'll bring him home.
02:41But...
02:42The person who comes back...
02:45If he comes back...
02:46If he comes back...
02:47He will.
02:48You can't give up hope, Paddy.
02:49But what...
02:50What he's had to endure.
02:51What he's had to suffer.
02:52He...
02:53He...
02:54He won't...
02:55He...
02:55He can't be the same person.
02:57So I might have lost him anyway.
03:00I might have been in here five minutes.
03:01I'm sick of the hospital food.
03:02I'm sick of the hospital food.
03:05I'm sick of the hospital food.
03:06Which is why...
03:07I have brought you a lovingly curated sandwich.
03:10Although Houghton General is a centre of excellence for many fields.
03:14Catering is not...
03:15Wow.
03:16Brilliant.
03:20One word from you.
03:21I could be out of there today.
03:24You already know the...
03:25The answer to that.
03:26No use to Moira in here.
03:27All this mess with Celia.
03:30Yeah.
03:31Shocking.
03:32Yeah.
03:33She was in business with the moment.
03:34She...
03:35She's gonna be up against it.
03:36She needs me at home.
03:37The police are gonna be asking her questions.
03:39It would be a...
03:40Bad idea...
03:41To discharge yourself...
03:42Against medical advice.
03:43Especially when the...
03:44Probably...
03:45I'm gonna send you home tomorrow.
03:46So what's wrong with today?
03:47Okay.
03:48Your consultant's kept you in for two reasons.
03:50Firstly to monitor your recovery from a gun shocked wound...
03:55it's also to have a chance to investigate whatever this abnormality is i'm telling you
04:00not cancer it can't be if you're in here
04:05they can act quickly if these results come back and there is
04:10a tumor it's best to be prepared you may need to make some big decisions
04:15pretty fast i know that's tough with every
04:20thing going on at home but trust me best place for you right now
04:25is he
04:28monday
04:30just stay there yeah but Tina's still on remand if you come back from Ireland now
04:35who's going to look after the kids until me dad turns up there's nothing you can do
04:40Dylan's here about to go yeah I love you too all right bye
04:45bye-bye how'd you get on oh yeah okay
04:50Dylan's corroborated a lot of what April Windsor has told us actually if you've got a minute
04:55I'd like a word about your dad yeah
05:00have you found him not yet
05:05but we've searched Celia's farm and found evidence that the attic has been occupied
05:10um by who how many people well the farm was abandoned when we arrived
05:15and we've not found any of the victims yet but from what we've seen and what we know
05:20half a dozen or more we think they were used as forced labor on the poll
05:25tree farm and then bust out to other employers as and when but I don't understand why didn't we
05:30dad run why didn't he just ask for help fear
05:35one word out of line and that had been reprisals
05:39one word out of line and that had been reprisals
05:40it can be a complicated relationship traffickers prey on the vulnerable condition them
05:45so they fear the rest of the world
05:46my dad was a professional rest
05:50I'm afraid it might be best if you do prepare yourself for the worst
05:55it's not unusual for traffickers to find ways to prevent their victims from talking
06:00to us we are doing everything we can and I I really hope to
06:05find your dad safe and well sorry I do have to take this
06:10we'll be in touch okay
06:15hello yes no it's all out there finally
06:20I should be relieved
06:24I just feel numb
06:25I wish you'd told me
06:27I hated having to lie to you mum
06:29get
06:30getting you to move out but it was the only way we could keep you safe
06:34I'd much rather have
06:35been here with you all

06:49no
06:50he's right
06:51he's right about Bear when he does turn up
06:53Ray and Celia didn't think twice
06:55about Tommy and I was running Dylan down
06:57and that was in plain sight what must they have put him through
07:00hi
07:04hi
07:05i

08:06Ray Walters and Celia Daniels lied to you
08:09we've
08:10seen this pattern before

09:46Okay.
09:48And the church will be open for quiet contemplation and prayers for being safe with her.
09:53You've got to tell us as a god after all this.
09:55I appreciate these are challenging times, Jimmy.
09:57Challenging!
09:58My granddaughter's been abused by a drug dealer along with half the family.
10:03Had his dad enslaved?
10:04That's before you even start on John Sugden.
10:08I can't take much more of this.
10:09I just try and act normal and behave like you.
10:12Like what?
10:12Like I can't...
10:13I haven't just killed my brother.
10:14Vic.
10:14Robert will be home with Harry now, so can we go, please?
10:18I'm going to nip in and see Eve.
10:22Is that all right?
10:23Of course it is.
10:24You never need to ask.
10:28Mission accomplished.
10:29I've already worked in on me, but I reckon I managed to spin things.
10:33Passports?
10:34Shoved on a bookshelf.
10:38In the middle of the living room.
10:39Ready to be found by whoever you've tipped off.
10:42Good man.
10:44Right, well, now I've done your dirty work, let's talk terms.
10:47Okay.
10:48I'll be up as soon as I can.
10:49Okay.
10:50I'll be up as soon as I can.
10:52Okay.
10:53Tim.
10:54I have news.
10:55You and me both.
10:57Robert.
10:59I heard about John.
11:00How are you all?
11:01I'm glad to see the back of him.
11:03So glad.
11:04Robert and Victoria have reconsidered their options.
11:08and they have kindly agreed to sell us their share of Butler's Farm.
11:11Hm.
11:12It's coming.
11:13from the man who swore he'd rather sell his soul than take a penny from us.
11:18I've changed my mind.
11:19Well, I made him an offer that he would be stupid to refuse.
11:23And Moira, she'll come around eventually.
11:26You still think that's not?
11:28She'll sell.
11:29She'll sell.
11:30I have agreed to let Robert have tenants.
11:33Well, I'd wanted in writing that you won't ever abuse our trust.
11:38Like Celia.
11:39By using the premises to run a criminal operation.
11:43A drug cartel right under our noses.
11:45Who'd have thought?
11:46Oh.
11:48It's far worse than that.
11:49Celia and Ray have been using that filthy attic.
11:53as some kind of prison dormitory for trafficked people.
11:58What?
11:59Yeah.
12:00Seems like she and her son abused illegal my-
12:03Migrants.
12:04Lost souls.
12:05Street sleepers.
12:06Enslaved them as full slaves.
12:08If that wasn't shocking enough, Paddy's father was one of them.
12:13Oh, man.
12:14Oh.
12:15Oh.
12:16Oh.
12:17Oh.

13:21She could go down for this.
13:23Setting her up for paying cash in hand, that's one thing.
13:26This, this is massive.
13:27Moira's done nothing wrong.
13:28Okay, well then if you want to go to Moira...
13:31And explain to her exactly what you stashed on her shelf.
13:34Please be my guest, but do not now pretend.
13:36To have grown a conscience.
13:38Move on with your life.
13:40I'll be in touch.
13:41When I have a contract for you to sign.
13:46I'll be in touch.
13:51I just wanted to put April's mind at rest.
13:55I know.
13:56I appreciate that so much.
13:58We'll be in touch.
13:58Listen, I don't...
14:00I don't suppose you can tell me what happens from here.
14:02The kind of charges April might still face.
14:05It's going to take a while before we have the full picture.
14:07All I can say is try to take it one day.
14:10It's time.
14:12Take care of yourselves.
14:15Excuse me.
14:18This...
14:19This...
14:20There's something you need to see.
14:23Ray.
14:24Ray.
14:25I never could stand him.
14:26Cocky.
14:27Up himself.
14:28Yeah, well...
14:29Maybe he was just with me.
14:30To make me to look respectable.
14:32Hmm.
14:33It's Caleb again.
14:34I need to...
14:35Go and do this job.
14:36So...
14:37I'll call you later, okay?
14:38Thanks.
14:39Thanks.
14:39Eve said to ask if she can have fish fish for a tea.
14:43Mm-hmm.
14:44You two have a nice time?
14:45Yeah.
14:46Just need a little hug, that's all.
14:48It's some pad...
14:49Ellie, the police are on it.
14:50They're going to find your dad soon.
14:53Do you know...
14:54what the detective told me?
14:56These monsters.
14:57When they're on the run.
14:59They're usually disposed of the victims.
15:01Stop them talking.
15:03Okay.
15:04Kill them?
15:06They wouldn't.
15:07Would they?
15:08Hey, Paddy, I can't tell...
15:09Oh, yeah, sorry I am.
15:11Sorry for what?
15:12For going into business with people traffickers.
15:14So am I.
15:16You think I had any idea?
15:18How could...
15:19Would she?
15:19None of us did.
15:20I don't think anyone's suggesting that's the case.
15:22And yet, you knew that she...
15:24...forged your signature.
15:25You knew that she was dodgy.
15:27But you never thought to ask even a few questions...
15:29...about what she was really up to on that farm.
15:31No, I thought she was dishonest, yeah.
15:34But I never would have thought she was up to anything like this.
15:37You can't blame Moira.
15:39For this.
15:40I mean, that'd be like blaming Aaron for what John did.
15:44When I think about my dad.
15:47Locked up.
15:48Humiliated and for...
15:49...forced to work.
15:53Sorry, I've got to go.
15:54Paddy.
15:59Just makes me sick to think those low lives I'd bear.
16:02Working him like a dog, probably.
16:04It's just horrible.
16:05And then to find out he was this close to home all that time...
16:08...must be doing Paddy's head in.
16:09And you know what?
16:11If I ever got the chance to get my hands on that Ray or his mum...
16:14...you're due to them what I did to John.
16:17No.
16:18Vic.
16:19You've got to...
16:19...stop doing this.
16:20How can I?
16:22You know, Harry's just asked me why Uncle Aaron...
16:24...was hurt in a car crash when he's such a good driver.
16:27It's fair point.
16:29And he believed what I told him.
16:31Because he trusts me.
16:33If he'd any idea...
16:34...you know what I'd done.
16:35He never will.
16:36And before, in the pub, I couldn't stand it.
16:39I'm...
16:39...trying so hard to look normal.
16:41But I feel like I look different.
16:43Like everyone can tell.
16:44Like I'm a murderer.
16:45Vic.
16:46We've been through this.
16:49You did what...
16:49...what you had to do.
16:50It won't look like that with the footage Joe's got.
16:53If he takes it to...
16:54...the police, I could lose everything.
16:56It's not going to happen.
16:57We've got this.
16:58We've got your back.
16:59I'm so glad I've got you two.
17:02And we're going nowhere.
17:04You did what you had to do to keep your family safe.
17:07And now, we're going to do the same for you.
17:09I promise.
17:12We'll all get through this stronger.
17:19Let's race.
17:24I know it anywhere.
17:27OK, thanks.
17:28Thanks.
17:28If I...
17:29I could ask you to stay back whilst we secure the scene.
17:32What's going on?
17:33It's race.
17:34This car.
17:35You must have dumped it.
17:37DS Walsh.
17:38Emerdale Village Hall.
17:39I'm going to need forensics here ASAP. Thanks.
17:44Thanks for your help. We'll take it from here.
17:49James, I'm getting lots of good messages.
17:54Sorry mate, we're going to have to pick up his work.
17:57What, by splitting myself enough?
17:59I'm already too busy as it is.
18:01The Manchester client's going off his head because he's not done that job has he?
18:05Did you tell him there was a massive crash?
18:08Where have you been?
18:10Looking out for Laurel.
18:11You know, all this mess with Ray, she's struggling.
18:14Yeah, yeah, I know. Yeah, Charles filled me in. It's terrible.
18:17You know, you can look out for Laurel in your own...
18:20The client's expecting you. You need to get over there tonight.
18:23Yeah, and I can't...
18:24Do it.
18:27Well, don't look at me!
18:28I mean...
18:29I didn't get home till stupid o'clock this morning.
18:32You know, I was stuck on the moose for hours...
18:34I was waiting for them to clear that road.
18:36Yeah, yeah, now it is clear.
18:37So, you either get in that van...
18:39Drive over to Manchester or you find yourself another job.
18:44You might want to check that all the boxes that are already in there that they haven't shifted.
18:48Last thing...
18:49We need complaints that the stock's been damaged in transit.
18:53Right, fine.
18:55You know what? You have it your way.
18:57But I am telling you now.
18:59I am too tired.
19:01So if I have a crash on the way, we both know who's done.
19:04No blame.
19:06Alright.
19:08Alright.
19:10I suppose a few hours won't make much difference.
19:11But you do it tomorrow and you set off first thing.
19:14it's not so good.
19:15I'm good.
19:16It's so simple to get out of all of my seats.
19:17I have to wait for it after working on the chair.
19:18Now, the door blusher, you'll be able to do things like so.
19:20I'm like, oh, you're like, oh, you're going to go.
19:22Let it all see.
19:24But here's a boy.
19:25I can't let it go.
19:26Cause it's a boy.
19:27With my mom's house.
19:28Can we just get out of your way?
19:29I can't let it go.
19:31I can't let it go.
19:32People can't let it go.
19:34You can't let it go.
19:35You can't let it go.
19:37You can't really get out of your way.
19:39So you can't let it go.
19:40I know it.
19:42You can't let it go.
19:43Kim, yeah, that's nice.
19:48All right, a long time ago,
19:53an evil man terrorized a whole village.
19:58The villagers were fearful
20:01because they're protecting
20:03Hector, the great king,
20:05had been wounded in battle.
20:08The king was sad.
20:13He and his queen had been betrayed
20:16by people they thought they could trust.
20:18And throughout the kingdom,
20:23fear...
20:23Fear and mistrust grew.
20:27Some people...
20:28Some people called for help
20:29from unexpected allies.
20:33But other people had deep secrets
20:37they were desperate to keep...
20:38because they were scared of what would happen
20:41if the truth came out.
20:43What happened next?
20:46Well...
20:48The king and the queen.
20:51They were patient.
20:53They knew all they had to do
20:56was wait.
20:58Because no matter how hard you try
21:02to hide a secret...
21:03The truth...
21:08always comes out in the end.
21:13To be continued...
21:15To be continued...
21:18Sunday.
