00:09Music
00:25Alright, come in.
00:36Can I get you a drink or anything?
00:38No, thanks.
00:39Oh, listen, I'm sorry about all this mess.
00:41We've just had our dinner. Yeah, we had some cheese on toast.
00:44It's fine.
00:45Actually, I'm just putting a wash on.
00:47We just need a word with Todd.
00:49Oh, right, right. I will get out of your hair.
00:52Actually, I'm just going to go to the dry cleaners.
00:56Anything you want taking?
00:58No, thanks.
00:59Great. All right. Bye.
01:01Goodbye.
01:01Bye.
01:06So, what can I do for you?
01:07I need to let you know that Theo's death is now a murder investigation.
01:15What are you doing here?
01:16Talking.
01:17He needs to be at school.
01:18We were discussing.
01:19Nope, I'm going.
01:20Love you, baby.
01:22Well done.
01:23We were discussing about him coming away with me.
01:25He's going nowhere.
01:26Oh, you go digging your heels in again.
01:28Oh, Melanie, what are you talking about?
01:30Oh, this is what you do.
01:31This is what you've always done.
01:33It's always my way or nothing.
01:34Can you ever think about what's best for anyone else?
01:37I don't.
01:38You're the self-centered one.
01:39He needs his mum.
01:40There's things going on that you don't know about.
01:42Things that I need to get him through.
01:44Yeah, whatever.
01:47What things?
01:48Things like what?
01:50Tell me.
01:51Tell me!
01:52Aye!
01:53The entire pub can hear you two.
01:56She's had an abortion.
01:58Okay?
01:59Megan.
02:00Megan had an abortion.
02:03So she was going to have his baby?
02:05So he needs to be here with us.
02:07No.
02:08He needs to be far away from you.
02:10You've failed him!
02:11You are not going to take him away from his family!
02:14I'm his mum!
02:15What's in a blue moon?
02:16All right, will you stop shouting?
02:17You just need to sit down like adults and talk.
02:21She's not capable.
02:22Ben!
02:24I'm going for a walk.
02:25Ben!
02:26Go away like you always did!
02:27Melanie, just...
02:28Please!
02:30Can we just talk?
02:31Please?
02:34Apologies to go over this again, but you say you were here
02:37at Number 11, Coronation Street.
02:38That's right, yeah.
02:39And that you booked a flight to go to Thailand?
02:42My mum and my brother are out there.
02:44Yes.
02:45Okay.
02:46Now you called a taxi to take you to the airport.
02:49Correct.
02:50But the taxi came, but you didn't go?
02:53I was in the taxi when I realised I didn't have my phone.
02:58So you abandoned your plan to get away from Theo
03:00because you didn't have your phone?
03:02I couldn't do anything without it.
03:04It had my ticket, emails, everything.
03:07Okay.
03:09So you went back to look for it?
03:13Where?
03:14I was going to go back to the flat, but that's when I saw Theo.
03:19So did you run back to your taxi?
03:22You know that I didn't.
03:25I ran towards the precinct and I hid.
03:29And that was the last time you say you saw Theo alive?
03:32That was the last time I saw him.
03:34Yes.
03:35And where did you go from the precinct?
03:38Incombe Street.
03:40I found a phone box and I rang here,
03:42asked George to come and pick me up.
03:45Christina came.
03:48And why them?
03:49I mean, why call them specifically?
03:53I wanted someone who could look after me,
03:58protect me and make me feel safe.
04:01It's been one of them days at work.
04:04Should I have just sacked it all off and come with you to hospital?
04:06Yeah, well, I wish you had.
04:08Honestly, my head is just done in.
04:10What, Harper?
04:10No, no, no.
04:12I'm sorry.
04:13It's just Jodie, innit?
04:16What, have you heard from her?
04:17No.
04:18And I'm scared we've missed something like a clue
04:21or just any idea of where that gang could have taken her
04:23or where she could be hiding.
04:24Well, she might have just, you know, upped and gone.
04:27Just herself.
04:28Well, why would she?
04:29No, she'd have rang me.
04:31She'd have left a message.
04:32Look, we need to retrace everything,
04:35go over everything that happened before her disappearance.
04:37What's that?
04:37Well, I've written it all down.
04:39You see, and I need your help.
04:40So, if there is anything, anything at all
04:42that you can see that I've missed.
04:46Never really been mates, me and you, have we?
04:49No.
04:50I don't think we ever will be.
04:52Agreed.
04:56And I think what we can also agree on is that, erm,
05:00no young person should ever have to go through
05:03what Will went through.
05:06No.
05:08That woman abused him.
05:11She was in a position of authority,
05:13she had a duty of care and she used that to groom him.
05:17And yeah, yeah, it did happen right under our noses.
05:21But what you've got to remember, Mel,
05:22is that it also got past everybody at that school.
05:25In fact, it got past everybody at two schools.
05:28Nobody had an inkling.
05:30That is how well she hid it.
05:32And I know you probably think that as his mum you would have known,
05:34but I, I, I can't...
05:37I swear to you, it wasn't even a sniff of it.
05:42So I'm begging you, please don't take it out on Ben.
05:45Please.
05:46Because that man, he...
05:50He's already in bits.
05:53Yeah.
05:55Don't throw stones at Ben.
05:57Well, you can throw them at me, I don't care, I can take it,
06:00but not at him.
06:01There was no way he could have known.
06:03None of us could.
06:05It was all Megan, all of it.
06:18Hello?
06:23You see?
06:25Oh, I've been...
06:26Sorry, I've been cleaning this, this desk over and over again.
06:31I started just before,
06:32before I called you,
06:33and I've been doing it ever since waiting for you to get back anyway.
06:36It's spotless now.
06:38I've practically taken the first layer of varnish off it anyway,
06:40but I can't, I can't stop, you see,
06:41because there's, erm...
06:45There's, there's blood on your shirt.
06:47You see, I was, I was, I was putting a wash on,
06:49and I was just about to put it in the machine.
06:51Erm, whose blood is that?
06:54Theos.
06:55Oh, it's, oh, it's Theos.
06:57From the fight.
06:59The...
06:59What, from the night he died?
07:00Hmm.
07:01Yeah, the night me and Todd locked him in their bathroom.
07:04Oh, right, okay, so, erm...
07:07When I, when I went to get Todd, and I came back,
07:09you changed your shirt.
07:11Yeah.
07:13It was a bit stinky.
07:14Yeah, but also because it had blood on it.
07:17Hmm.
07:18And that's Theos blood.
07:20Yeah.
07:21From the struggle to get him in the bathroom.
07:23Right, and not, not from, not from anywhere else.
07:28Like...
07:29Chrissie.
07:29Did you, erm...
07:32Did you go out?
07:33You know, when I went to get Todd?
07:35Did you go, did you go anywhere at all?
07:37Yeah, yeah, I went for a walk.
07:39Oh, God.
07:40Just to get some hair and, you know, I had a little walk around the block.
07:44Oh, Georgie Love.
07:45What?
07:46Georgie Love, do you know that...
07:48Theo's death is now a murder investigation.
07:51You know that Lisa Swain has been to see Todd.
07:54that this could be bad for you.
07:59Why is that, then?
08:07You all right, mate?
08:10Yeah.
08:11You?
08:13Yeah?
08:18Hi.
08:19Hi.
08:21Hi.
08:30No, come on, please.
08:32Please?
08:33There's no need to take him to the station.
08:35Let's not make a show of it, eh?
08:36George.
08:37Excuse me.
08:37He hasn't done anything.
08:39Chrissie.
08:40Please.
08:41Right, I'll get you Adam Barlow.
08:42No.
08:43No, not him.
08:43No, he knows you.
08:48This isn't right.
08:49He hasn't done anything.
08:50He wouldn't do anything.
08:51He's playing George.
08:52He wouldn't hurt her flying.
08:53Of course he wouldn't.
08:54We'll get this away now.
09:12I mean, there's got to be something.
09:15Something, anything.
09:16I've missed something.
09:18Well, there is.
09:21What?
09:23On the night she disappeared, something happened between us.
09:29Well, it didn't happen.
09:31What are you on about?
09:35Well, I'd had a few.
09:37Yeah.
09:39And I sent you a text message, right?
09:41And you replied with like a love heart.
09:44No, I didn't.
09:45No, I know you didn't.
09:46I thought it was you, but it wasn't.
09:48It's not there anymore.
09:48She's deleted it.
09:51What?
09:51Jodie did?
09:52Yeah.
09:57So, I'd had a few.
09:59Yeah, you said.
10:00Yeah, like I said.
10:01And I came back here, and because we've sent a message,
10:05I'm thinking, we're in here, yeah?
10:09I gets up to our room, and there's candles on.
10:12And you're lying in our bed with a robe on.
10:15I am.
10:16Yeah.
10:17Only it isn't you.
10:18It's Jodie.
10:19All right, go on.
10:24So...
10:25Her face was like turned away, yeah?
10:28Like this.
10:30And...
10:32Because it was dark,
10:34and because I've had a drink,
10:36and because we've sent the messages together,
10:39I get into bed and I start to kiss her.
10:41You what?
10:42I swear, it was nothing.
10:43And as soon as I realised it wasn't you,
10:45I freaked and I ran out of the room.
10:46Do you fancy her?
10:47No, of course not.
10:48Yeah, but she's attractive though, isn't she?
10:50Well, no, I'm not interested.
10:52I wouldn't.
10:53I didn't.
10:54I'd never.
10:55Right, did anything else happen?
10:56No.
10:57You better not be lying to me, David.
10:58I'm not, I'm not.
10:58Because you know what will happen if you are lying to me.
11:00I will kill you, okay?
11:01I will kill you.
11:02I know, I know.
11:03And I didn't.
11:04I promise, I swear, I love you.
11:06I love you.
11:13Well, that's it, innit?
11:15That's why she left,
11:16because you came on to her.
11:19I know, but I didn't.
11:20I mean, I even said to her,
11:21I was like...
11:22I thought you were showing her, you know?
11:23I said sorry and...
11:25and that was it.
11:27Well, maybe she did choose to leave after all then.
11:32Why did Christina take your shirt to The Undertaker's today?
11:35Well, that's a question for Christina.
11:37Not my client.
11:39Okay.
11:43You say you fought with Theo?
11:44He didn't say fight.
11:46Well,
11:47it was more of a struggle.
11:49Self-defence.
11:50Mr Silverton's blood is on your shirt.
11:52He must have been bleeding.
11:53Yeah.
11:55From the struggle.
11:57Well...
11:59He was going for Todd, so...
12:02I, erm...
12:03I...
12:04I hit him.
12:06And he bled from my punch.
12:12And then what happened?
12:14Erm...
12:15Well, then...
12:16I bundled him into the bathroom,
12:18and...
12:19I held the door,
12:20and then...
12:20me and Todd,
12:21we tied the handles so that he couldn't escape.
12:24Then we left.
12:27I called the police.
12:30And then, erm...
12:31I saw Kit.
12:33And then we went home.
12:35And that's when Todd decided to leave for the airport?
12:37That's a question for us to answer.
12:39So what about you?
12:41Where did you go?
12:42You're not obliged to answer.
12:44But...
12:44I...
12:45I just went to pub.
12:46Rovers.
12:47Why?
12:49Because...
12:50Todd was packing, and...
12:52I needed a drink.
12:53I was shaken up.
12:54After the fight?
12:55Struggle.
12:56You chose not to stay with Todd and wave him off?
12:58Well...
12:59He wanted me to go and be with Summer.
13:00At the Rovers?
13:01Yeah.
13:01She was in the pub with Christina, and then, erm...
13:05And then Kit DC Greeny came in later.
13:07He did.
13:08And it was here that you heard that Mr Silverton had escaped?
13:11Yeah, that's right.
13:12Right.
13:14So what did you do?
13:17Well, I went to see Todd.
13:20At Number 11?
13:21Yeah.
13:22Yeah, I watched him get into his taxi, and then...
13:25He drove away, and I waved him off.
13:26But he didn't get to the airport, did he?
13:28Detective Sergeant.
13:29You thought he'd gone until he called you at...
13:3221.25?
13:34And...
13:36That's when he asked me to pick him up, yeah?
13:39So what did you do?
13:42Well, erm...
13:44I couldn't drive, cos...
13:45I'd had a few pints.
13:47How many?
13:48Two.
13:50Or three.
13:52Yeah.
13:52Three.
13:54So, er...
13:56Christina went to get him.
13:57On her own?
13:58Yeah.
14:00She told me to stay in, in case you came round.
14:03Or the police.
14:04And did you?
14:06Stay at home after Christina left?
14:08Yeah.
14:10Right.
14:12So, you'd fought, and it was more of a fight than a struggle if Mr Silverton had been punched.
14:17You'd trapped him in the bathroom at his flat, then after drinking three pints,
14:21you learnt that Mr Silverton had escaped and was out there chasing Mr Grimshaw.
14:25Christina had gone to collect him on her own, and you...
14:30You'd just stayed at home.
14:35Yeah.
14:39Yes.
14:46Well, erm...
14:47I might have, erm...
14:49Yeah, no, I did.
14:50I went home for a little walk.
14:53Just to clear my head and get some air.
14:55Just round the block and back, but I didn't see Theo.
14:59Or anyone.
15:01You didn't see anyone?
15:02No.
15:05So there is nobody who can confirm your account.
15:14Ben, can you come home please, love?
15:15I've got news.
15:20Hiya.
15:20Usual.
15:21Er, yeah.
15:23George still in?
15:25I've asked Adam to message me the second they release him.
15:29If they release him.
15:37Here's Carl.
15:40He wants to turn over a new leaf.
15:42Again.
15:44He might be saying it, but is he actually capable of doing it?
15:50He doesn't care about anything or anyone other than himself.
15:57He's just been beaten half to death.
16:00Yeah.
16:03Do you know something?
16:06No.
16:09Ronnie.
16:18David.
16:22Right, so er, I just want to let you know that we've had the results back from the blood samples
16:27that we found here.
16:28Sarah's as we suspected, but we've also found a separate sample in the database.
16:33Whose?
16:34Jodie's.
16:35What?
16:36Hang on.
16:36Can it not be old?
16:38I mean, she lived here for ages.
16:40Couldn't we believe it was fresh?
16:41Right.
16:42She must have been hurt if she was bleeding.
16:45Mustn't she?
16:45I mean, she had to be.
16:48Maybe it had something to do with them.
16:51Look, if she was hurt, someone must have taken her.
16:54Well, we're working on the theory that whoever hit Sarah's took Jodie.
16:58Shona, listen.
16:59I promise I'll do everything I can to find her.
17:01Okay?
17:04I took him to the hospital, didn't I?
17:06And dumped him there.
17:07Like he was a pile of rubbish for tip.
17:11Ronnie is our family.
17:13Yeah?
17:14For good or for worse.
17:16He's lucky I found him when I did.
17:20I thought better of you, Ronald Bailey.
17:26Hey, Debbie.
17:31Sorry for going off grid, sweetheart.
17:33Just me and Mel.
17:35It's all right.
17:36At least I know she's no threat to me.
17:38Not in a million years.
17:40I just hope she's not a threat to our will.
17:42I think I got through to her.
17:44Really?
17:45Yeah, I mean, don't count your chickens just yet,
17:47but my gut instinct is that she's going to leave things as they are.
17:56Oh, mother of God.
18:00Look, some grapes.
18:03The hospital said you're not allowed to bring flowers anymore,
18:06but grapes are fine.
18:08I don't like grapes.
18:10I know.
18:11You know, sitting here, watching you sleep,
18:15it's really hard to imagine you pushing someone down the stairs.
18:20Sweet, frail little nana.
18:22You.
18:23Ah, there she is.
18:26Finlay told you a bunch of lies.
18:28Oh, well, that's I'll tell Ben anyway.
18:31Let him know what people have been saying about what his mammy did to his daddy.
18:36What do you want?
18:37My son, remember?
18:39Please, Melanie.
18:40Look at me.
18:41Laid out here.
18:42I don't care.
18:44I don't care.
18:45I care about Will.
18:47And the fact that he's not being looked after here.
18:49Nearly a dad at 16 years old.
18:52Come on.
18:52Something needs to be done.
18:56Look.
18:58Convince Ben that Will comes to stay with me.
19:01Yeah?
19:02And I won't tell anyone about you know what.
19:06Yeah?
19:08Enjoy your grapes.
19:17I don't think they have enough to charge him.
19:18Of course they haven't, because he didn't do it.
19:21Anyway, I thought you should know.
19:23Yeah, cheers, mate.
19:29Madness, right?
19:31Yeah.
19:32What?
19:34Nothing.
19:36You were thinking something.
19:38No, I was just...
19:43I was just...
19:46Why haven't they let him go?
19:47Because they're just checking what he said, maybe?
19:51He didn't do it. I know that. You know that. We all do.
19:54We don't know that.
19:56Not for certain.
19:59He didn't tell me he'd been out for a walk.
20:01What else isn't he telling me?
20:02And he was in such a state that night with Theo escaping and you were running for your life.
20:07He could have done anything.
20:09No.
20:09Tell us, there's only one person who knows who killed Theo, right?
20:14And that's his murderer.
20:31There he is.
20:32Are there?
