00:00Thank you
00:30It doesn't feel any less creepy than it did last night, does it?
00:37No. I'm trying to think where I'd go if I was in.
00:42Would you want me to stay here and you go back to the house?
00:45Just wait and hope. It's too cold. You're still recovering.
00:51Get back to the car and call me Aerith.
00:54Just thought we could find you before the police do.
01:00Is that what kids do now? Cultural away days?
01:11I was lucky if I saw Blackpool Illuminations once a year.
01:15I want them to appreciate more than just money.
01:18They'll appreciate the shops.
01:20We're not going shopping. We are going sightseeing and then we're seeing a musical.
01:25Poor kids.
01:27OK, so this is for Lucas and this is for Clemmie.
01:31What's this?
01:32What do you think?
01:34Spending money?
01:36What?
01:37Nothing. Thank you. It's kind of you.
01:40Also, I cancelled your taxi. I will give you a lift.
01:42You don't have to do that.
01:43I'll wave you off.
01:44What are you two going to do for a night all on your own?
01:47And Evan?
01:48I don't know. Compare bank balances. Play Monopoly.
01:53Actually, I'm looking forward to it. We rarely get to hang out together.
01:57Right, I'm going to get the kids because I'm going to miss this train.
02:00OK.
02:03Look at you.
02:05What?
02:06Family man.
02:08It's fun. I like fun.
02:11Full of surprises.
02:13Hmm.
02:14That I am.
02:16See you later.
02:23You can't just appear and then disappear like that and then leave me knowing nothing.
02:27Just...
02:28Can you please just call me back?
02:30Laurel?
02:32Hi.
02:33Don't let me disturb you.
02:36No, actually, work can wait.
02:39How are you doing?
02:40I've been meaning to...
02:41You first.
02:43How's April doing?
02:45She's...
02:46OK.
02:47I mean, I can't work out if she's a miracle of resilience
02:50or just really good at keeping herself distracted.
02:53And any news from, er...
02:55There?
02:58I just wish she was back home.
03:00And that they'd catch Celia.
03:02Then it would feel like this whole nightmare is over.
03:04My mum gets up in the middle of the night and I hear the door open and close
03:07and I think it's that woman.
03:09You need to wonder if I'm ever going to sleep properly again.
03:11Oh, I've given up on sleep.
03:14Listen, I know that Marlon had a word.
03:17Yeah, I know.
03:18I know I was really sharp with him and I've felt really bad about it since.
03:21Laurel, I can't tell you how hard it was watching Ray come and go from your house.
03:24Don't be able to say anything or warn you.
03:27Yeah, no, I get it.
03:28I get it.
03:29Do you?
03:30Yeah.
03:31Yeah.
03:32Oh.
03:33Sorry.
03:34Sorry.
03:35We'll catch up properly soon, yeah?
03:37Oh.
03:39Hello?
03:40Yep.
03:41Hello, Mr Teasdale.
03:42Yes, I did.
03:43I got your email.
03:44Erm, are you wanting to reschedule?
03:47No problem?
03:48Yep.
03:49I just need to check the diary.
03:50Hello, Ronan.
03:52Hello, Ronan.
03:53Hello, Ronan.
03:54Hello, Ronan.
03:55Hello, Ronan.
03:57Hello, Ronan.
03:58Hello, Ronan.
03:59Hello, Ronan.
04:00Hello, Ronan.
04:01Hello, Ronan.
04:02Come on, Ted.
04:03Come on, Ted.
04:24That was annoying.
04:37What's the rush?
04:38Well, sooner we get going.
04:40Sooner we get back.
04:41Why are you so determined not to enjoy this?
04:44This is your New Year's resolution, not mine.
04:46If it's so much fun, why are you so determined to drag me along?
04:49Well, forgive me for wanting to spend some quality time together.
04:51It's the right answer.
04:53Yes, I know.
05:00Dylan.
05:01Where are you?
05:04Is there something going on?
05:05Arthur?
05:06Hi.
05:07Erm, I don't suppose you have a charger I could borrow?
05:20Er, yeah.
05:21Yeah.
05:22Sit down if you want.
05:24That's a nice phone.
05:25Yeah, it's new.
05:26Gabby's gone to Portugal and I'm killing the tips.
05:29Oh, hi.
05:31Just bumped into Ronan.
05:33I was asking about you.
05:35Er, I'm okay.
05:37I just want you to know you're a very brave young lady and we're all here for you.
05:42Do you want another?
05:44I'm all right.
05:47She's right, though.
05:48What she said about you.
05:50She's so not.
05:51I just still can't believe that he was round at ours on Christmas Day.
05:55He just seemed normal.
05:58Are you hungry?
06:00We can get her something.
06:02You know, my turn.
06:03Must be a lot of big tippers round here.
06:06The police said he was suffocated.
06:08Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
06:11I don't know why you're so upset.
06:12Because I needed to know it wasn't you.
06:15You said not to pursue it.
06:16There was no need.
06:17What are you doing, Graham?
06:19Why are you here?
06:20You could have just called.
06:21Rumour has it, it's the woman Celia.
06:25Hello.
06:26Hello.
06:29Hello.
06:30Ah, Rona.
06:31How good are you at keeping secrets?
06:39Oh, I had this image in my head of him waiting for us from the stepper in the playground or something.
06:44So what do we do now?
06:53The police would have called you if they found him, wouldn't they?
06:56Depends if he's started talking.
06:58They might want the whole story first.
07:01Dylan.
07:02He's not ready for the world yet.
07:04He won't cope.
07:05He won't survive the cold.
07:08Maybe it's best if the police do have him.
07:10Maybe one of us should call him and just say he's been spotted in the vicinity.
07:14Yeah, and the next thing, we're all in prison.
07:16And if your dad ain't ready for the world, then he definitely ain't ready for that.
07:21Trust me, neither are you.
07:24There should be a number people can ring to talk them out of New Year's resolutions.
07:29Like, I'm gonna join an expensive gym and go twice a week.
07:33No, you won't.
07:35Save your money.
07:37I'm gonna learn to play the violin.
07:40No, you're not.
07:42Save your marriage.
07:44I'm gonna go rambling at dinner time in the mud.
07:47Right.
07:49If you could just stop whinging for one second, you might actually enjoy it.
07:53Whinging?
07:54Yes, it means moaning.
07:55I know what it means, Caleb.
07:56I am not a rambler.
07:57You knew that when you married me.
07:59You'd run?
08:00Yeah, because running's cool.
08:01Ramblers wear fleece gilets and walk with plastic sticks.
08:05What now?
08:06Is that...
08:08Bear?
08:12Huh?
08:13What do you want?
08:14Oh my God, are you okay?
08:15Does Paddy know you're there?
08:17Paddy would be so relieved.
08:19I think I've gone wrong.
08:22What...
08:23What do you mean?
08:25Look up my vets, they'll have Paddy's number.
08:30No, I've got no signal.
08:31Right, let me...
08:32Let me go over there and see if we can get one.
08:34Here you go.
08:35What's that?
08:36Signing.
08:37Thanks, Dylan.
08:38Er...
08:39Not much to put in it, right?
08:40But...
08:41I don't mean this.
08:42I mean...
08:43Everything.
08:44It's been...
08:45It's been mad, hasn't it?
08:46Er...
08:47Yeah.
08:48It can't have been easy.
08:49Being around all that.
08:51But there is an end in sight.
08:53Once we've found my Dad...
08:54Once we've got through this, then...
08:56Erm...
08:57I think what I'm trying to say is...
09:00I couldn't have done this without you.
09:02You really are like...
09:03I don't know.
09:04You know...
09:05I don't know.
09:06You know what I'm trying to say is...
09:07I'm trying to say...
09:08What I was trying to say is...
09:09I couldn't have done this without you.
09:10You really are like...
09:11I'm trying to say...
09:13What I'm trying to say is...
09:14I couldn't have done this without you. You really are like a son to me.
09:24At least it's not Mandy.
09:27Hello?
09:29You kidding?
09:31Where is he?
09:33And how is he? Is he alright?
09:37He'll be there.
09:39Someone's found him.
09:41It's with Ruby and Caleb.
09:42Right, so that's good isn't it?
09:46They've called the police.
09:59I'm not exactly an expert in equine family trees or anything horse related for that matter.
10:05I'm more of a fan of things with four wheels. Preferably a flat six.
10:09That's the secret?
10:10If I am reading this correctly, this horse is a direct bloodline descendant of ice. An icicle, if you will.
10:20Okay.
10:22I thought it'd be a nice gift for Kim. Celebrate us resetting our relationship, you know?
10:25But I can confirm that it's got four legs and a mane and horse teeth and that's about it.
10:33Right, so you want me to look into it? Visit?
10:36Visit? Yeah. Check it out. Um, interview it for the job. Whatever it is you have to do.
10:41Okay, well if you send me the link, I will let you know. I'm really sorry but I do have to leave now for an appointment, so...
10:47Have you been with everything that's happened recently? Makes you think, doesn't it?
10:51You mean with April? With April, yeah. With Paddy's father, Bear and with the crash.
10:59It's made me think. I've been thinking a lot about family. I never thought I'd have a family. I never thought I'd want one. You know?
11:09Not a real one. With the... kids. I only really had one person in my life that felt like family.
11:19I need to go, so...
11:22I thought I saw Graham recently.
11:26I just say that because I know that you and him had a thing. More than a thing.
11:31Obviously, I couldn't possibly have seen him. Maybe I just miss him more than I thought.
11:36I guess maybe having the kids around kickstarted it all. He was kind of like a... like a father.
11:43And like a brother. Like a father-brother rolled into one.
11:46I'm sorry, Joe.
11:48I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Whoa. No idea what came over me.
11:52You are a vet, not my psychiatrist. Um, look into the horse and let me know.
11:58Obviously, I would really appreciate some secrecy.
12:01I won't say a word. Thank you.
12:10You heard all that?
12:11Hm.
12:13I'm glad he's found some kind of, er, family happiness.
12:18Shame it's involving Kim.
12:20But it's none of my business now.
12:24Then why are you here, Graham? You could have just answered your phone.
12:28But here you are, back in the village with all this history.
12:30I... I can't get me bearings.
12:37Well, it's been a while since you've been...
12:39I thought he were there.
12:42Paddy?
12:44Ray. I thought he were there with Anya.
12:47Right, Paddy's here now.
12:49Anya?
12:50You found me.
12:52Did you just say Anya?
12:53Bear?
12:54Do you know where Anya is?
12:55Well, I thought I did.
12:57Bear?
12:58Bear.
12:59Look who it is.
13:00Dad!
13:01Oh, my God.
13:02Dad!
13:03You all right?
13:05You're losing on flipping minds.
13:06Come here.
13:08I just went for a walk.
13:11It's just here?
13:12Yeah, yeah. It was just there.
13:14I don't believe it.
13:15Thank you. Thank you. I'll take it from here. Thank you.
13:17Hey.
13:18Dad, where have you been?
13:20Everyone's been looking for you.
13:21The police.
13:22The, the, the...
13:23Actually, can you just give him a ring and tell him not to bother coming over?
13:26I'll...
13:27I'll make sure he gets home safe and I'll call him from there.
13:31Eh.
13:32Might be a bit late for that.
13:37Okay. Do you want anything else?
13:38No.
13:39You don't want a pudding?
13:40No, I'm right.
13:41Sure.
13:42Yes.
13:45You're the golden boy.
13:46Well, yeah, we had a row and then we talked it out.
13:49But ever since she's been buzzing and it's getting really annoying.
13:53So are things like, get back to normal now?
13:58Not exactly.
14:00Oh.
14:01Sorry, I thought.
14:02Nah, that raise.
14:03You know.
14:05Did you get to keep the money?
14:07What money?
14:08Oh, from the drugs.
14:10What makes you think there's money?
14:12Well, you see it on the telly.
14:13There's mountains of it.
14:14It's not a drill video.
14:16The money gets taken off you as soon as you've earned it.
14:19And then there's always this fake debt and interest on that debt and interest on top of interest.
14:24Yeah, well, if it's, if it's that bad.
14:26Sorry, Arthur, were you thinking about getting into the business?
14:28No.
14:29No, no, no, no.
14:30Of course not.
14:31I just meant like, you know, why do it?
14:34Because they trick you.
14:35And they threaten you and they threaten your family.
14:38And you see what they do to other people so you know that those threats are real.
14:42I'm glad I'm still alive but I hate myself for what I've done to everyone else.
14:48Now what?
14:49Well, we're skint now.
14:50They took everything.
14:52Left my whole family in masses of debt.
14:55No fancy phones for us.
14:59Well, he said he'd been looking for that ray.
15:01He didn't say where he come from.
15:04But thanks for coming out.
15:06I should probably try and get some hot food inside him.
15:08Getting checked out.
15:10I'll radio for some medical backup.
15:12We can sit him in the back of my car and ask him a few questions while we wait.
15:16I'm sorry.
15:17I'm not even just sitting there and waiting.
15:19There's literally a hospital down the road.
15:21I'll take him yourself.
15:26Can you remember where you were coming from?
15:28I'd love to hear more about this Anya.
15:31Where did you meet her?
15:32Hull on a farm in Hull.
15:34Hull?
15:35Was Anya with you in Hull?
15:37I don't know.
15:38I can't find Anya's ribbon.
15:40What do you mean?
15:41What ribbon?
15:42Dad, let's get you to the hospital.
15:43Get you checked out.
15:44I don't need checking out.
15:45Get you a hot bath then.
15:46Get you something to eat.
15:47I'll follow you down.
15:48Sorry?
15:49Meet you at the hospital.
15:50Is that really necessary?
15:52I think your dad might have information related to an ongoing murder investigation.
15:56Including the search for a prime suspect.
15:58So, sooner we talk to him.
16:05Thanks.
16:06No idea.
16:07No worries.
16:08Hope he's all right.
16:09That was a bit weird.
16:10You don't even know the half of it.
16:13Oh.
16:14Hey.
16:15Um, April's gone to the shop just in case you were looking for her.
16:20Oh, all right.
16:21I think you really managed to take her mind off things earlier, so thank you.
16:23More like old times.
16:24More like old times.
16:25I'm sorry.
16:26You didn't know about everything that's happened.
16:27Onwards and upwards, yeah?
16:28Yeah.
16:29I think you really managed to take her mind off things earlier, so thank you.
16:31More like old times.
16:32More like old times.
16:33I'm sorry.
16:35You didn't know about everything that's happened.
16:36Onwards and upwards, yeah?
16:37Yeah.
16:38April's gone to the shop just in case you were looking for her.
16:40Oh, alright.
16:42I think you really managed to take her mind off things earlier, so...
16:45Thank you. More like old times.
16:48I'm sorry you didn't know about everything that's happened.
16:52Onwards and upwards, yeah?
16:54Yeah.
17:08They want you to stay overnight.
17:28Eh?
17:29As far as they know, you've been sleeping rough in the cold.
17:36Dad, they're going to want to talk to you about Ray and Celia.
17:40I couldn't find Ray.
17:42I know.
17:48I killed him.
17:53Barry, I did.
17:53Don't be scared.
17:57You were taken to a farm in Hull and you escaped, right?
18:06I hear you're spending the night.
18:09Right.
18:09I don't know what the doctor said to you, but they were pretty firm with me about letting
18:13him rest, not stressing him out.
18:15I understand.
18:16Alright.
18:17Er, so you don't want to speak to him?
18:19He's been through a lot.
18:20We've referred him to a support group who'll be assigning him a counsellor, so...
18:25We'll be leaving you alone till tomorrow.
18:27Bet you're looking forward to dinner.
18:28He looks alright, doesn't he?
18:32For someone who's been sleeping rough in the middle of winter.
18:35Call you tomorrow.
18:47Right, Reeves, I'm locking up.
18:50Give me a sec.
18:55You doing?
18:59Anya's a weird name for Bear to just pull out of the air, isn't it?
19:02How many Anyas have you met in your lifetime?
19:04Yeah, not that many.
19:06Okay, go with me.
19:08We found Anya in the back of one of your vans.
19:11Then Ray is found in the back of one of your vans.
19:14Weird.
19:16Okay, what about this?
19:18The van that Anya turned up in didn't come in directly from abroad.
19:22According to this, there was a pick-up in Leeds.
19:26If she was already in the van, surely they would have found her?
19:30Well, yeah, you'd hope so.
19:33So, if she was already here, then why sneak into a van to go a few miles down the road?
19:38Unless she was hiding or running away?
19:42So, who is she running from?
19:44And where is she now?
19:47Okay.
19:59I can't take any more of this weirdness.
20:02You're grinning at me like your brain's fallen out or something.
20:05I'm just grinning.
20:07It's making me uncomfortable.
20:09You know I don't like surprises.
20:11I am certain that you are going to like this one.
20:14Okay.
20:14So, what's going on?
20:17I have been looking at horses.
20:20Why?
20:20I found a blood relative.
20:22Of yours?
20:23Very funny.
20:24Of ice.
20:26And subject to a report from Rona, you might want to start making preparations.
20:33Or painting the spare room, whatever it is you have to do.
20:35Are you lost for words?
20:39Obviously, it's very kind, but...
20:42But you don't know.
20:44Come on, Kim.
20:49You worshipped that horse.
20:50Even I knew that.
20:51Yes, but ice is dead.
20:53I'm sorry.
20:55I know I must sound ungrateful, but it's the thought that counts.
21:00And it's a lovely thought, Joe.
21:02A really lovely one.
21:05Okay.
21:06Yeah.
21:06Okay.
21:07Um...
21:09I'm not going to pretend that I'm not a little bit confused.
21:12I've shared some wonderful years with ice.
21:15He's a really happy memory now, but he's gone.
21:20I don't believe you can bring the dead back to life.
21:24That, Kim, is where you are so...
21:30wrong.
21:34I am not a livingbuddy town
21:42not a livingbuddy town
21:43I've run some snow
21:45I don't think you have a hard date
21:47I am not a livingbuddy town
21:48But I think they have a hard date
21:49And then bye aقول
21:50I'll wait either
