00:09Música
00:40We're going to go home.
00:41We've got more questions.
00:44Theo, he was alive and kicking last time I saw him.
00:47You can't seriously think it were me.
00:53Home night in the police cell.
00:55My poor dad will be spinning in his grave.
01:06I can't stop thinking about that blood.
01:09Yeah.
01:11Which you're meant to mean.
01:13I've got your stress too, aren't you?
01:16Well, the thing is...
01:17I don't like that face, David. What is it?
01:21The thing is, I didn't know how to tell you before
01:24because, you know, I just thought it was Jodie being...
01:27Oh, you've got to be kidding me. What is it?
01:29Just tell me.
01:30She sent me a voicemail that night, all right?
01:33And it was a total nuts voicemail.
01:36Right, what is with this dribs and drabs, David, OK?
01:39My sister is missing and you're feeding me important information
01:42when you think the time's right.
01:44She wasn't missing, eh...
01:45That's not the point!
01:47I didn't know what to do for the best.
01:48Best for who?
01:50Look, it's just another one of her stunts.
01:52My sister's blood is not a stunt, OK?
01:54We need to take this to the police.
01:56Look, if we do that, we've at least got to tell them about the Evvys.
02:00I just don't want to do anything that is going to put Lily in danger.
02:03Nor do I.
02:04But what other choice do we have?
02:06Right, whatever's on here is enough to prove that she's vulnerable, right?
02:09Right.
02:10So this, along with the blood sample, is enough to make the police ramp up the investigation?
02:15Maybe.
02:16We've got to take this to the police.
02:21Well, brace yourself.
02:23So they've kept him in all night, in a cell?
02:26Looks like.
02:27Yeah.
02:28That's just plain wrong.
02:29Well, they've got to be thorough, haven't they?
02:31And they've got to be seen to be thorough.
02:33Yeah, but George, I mean, come on.
02:35Try not to worry, all right? Adam's on the case.
02:38Maybe they're just eliminating suspects.
02:40Yes, exactly.
02:41And given his punch-up with Theo,
02:43they're bound to shine the beam on him eventually, aren't they, suppose?
02:46People who had bust-ups with Theo were practically queuing around the block.
02:50Yeah.
02:51Sorry, Todd.
02:52It's a fact.
02:55What if they send George to prison?
02:57You know, stitch him up?
02:58That's not going to happen.
02:59Come on, he landed one punch.
03:01They could make out that it was more.
03:03Stop spiralling.
03:04Right, if George is innocent,
03:06which we all know he is,
03:08then he's got nothing to worry about.
03:09Of course he's innocent.
03:11That's what I just said.
03:13Well, there's no way that he killed Theo,
03:14so what's with the if?
03:15No, no, lovely, that was just a...
03:17It was just a figure of speech.
03:19It's...
03:19Are you going to have a cup of tea, or what?
03:21No, thanks.
03:23Yeah, and when you speak to George,
03:25just send him my love, yeah?
03:26Tell him that I haven't doubted him for a nanosecond.
03:30Copy that.
03:35Yes, I know.
03:37I know she puts me to shame, but I...
03:40I can't shake it off.
03:42Todd, are you telling me there's not one part of you
03:45that's starting to wonder?
03:46Not really.
03:49Let's not go there, OK?
03:53I have watched every cop show go in me,
03:56and I know why you are asking me the same thing
03:59over and over again.
04:01It's because you're trying to trip me up.
04:03Liars need good memories.
04:04Trouble is, I'm not lying.
04:07Well, it took you a while yesterday
04:08to remember you'd been for that war, didn't it?
04:10It's because I panicked.
04:11I thought you might get the wrong end of the stick,
04:13which you did.
04:14All we need from you, Mr Shuttleworth,
04:16is the unvarnished truth.
04:18How many times did I loathe and detest the guy
04:22with bells on?
04:24I'm sad that he's dead.
04:27I'm sad for his kids.
04:29Otherwise, it's a blessed relief that he's gone.
04:32Maybe now Todd will be able to rebuild his life.
04:34You seem if wanted to be here.
04:36Oh, give me strength.
04:37My client's exhausted.
04:38You've held them overnight.
04:39The O'Sillerton's blood is on your polo shirt.
04:41I've explained all that.
04:43Which even your own partner conceded
04:45would look bad for you.
04:46Have you heard, eh?
04:46I'm being stitched up like a kipper here.
04:50That's quite a temper you've got there, George.
04:53I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of that.
04:54You want to try being wrongly accused of murder, love?
04:59For the tape, I'm showing Mr Shuttleworth
05:01a photograph of a brooch that was found at the flat.
05:03It's covered in blood DNA.
05:04Results to follow.
05:06Have you seen this brooch before?
05:10No.
05:11How's that for unvarnished?
05:13George.
05:13Well, niceties have gone out the window, haven't they?
05:16So you have never seen it before?
05:18No.
05:18I've never seen it before.
05:20Do you have any idea who it might belong to?
05:22Well, given that I've never clapped eyes on it in me life.
05:24Not a clue.
05:26Look, can I just go home now, please?
05:29Yes, Wayne.
05:30The pace clock's about to run out.
05:32Either get an extension, good luck with that,
05:34or let him go home.
05:38I'll bring this upstairs, shall I?
05:40Oh, the whole lot will need washing.
05:43Reeks of hospital.
05:44Don't worry, I'll sort it.
05:45Right, let me tuck this in.
05:46Go on.
05:48And you were right, little Florence Nightingale.
05:51Do you fancy another coffee, Nan?
05:52No, Ollie.
05:53But I could murder a ham sandwich.
05:55Yeah, I'm on it.
05:55White or brown.
05:56Granary.
05:58Wiltshire ham, breaded,
05:59and a dash of English mustard.
06:02Probably the greatest thing to come out of England.
06:04Along with Paul O'Grady.
06:06I'll go to Freshco's.
06:07Thanks, darling.
06:11Blimey.
06:12The way that Megan blamed you for the miscarriage that didn't happen.
06:15There's no line that woman won't cross.
06:18That won't have helped your stress levels.
06:20Agreed.
06:21Right, do you want any more cushions?
06:23Maybe a little one for the small of me back.
06:26Ooh, are you milking it, Ma?
06:28Definitely.
06:29I should nearly crack it more often.
06:31Don't be joking about your dodgy heart.
06:33It's not funny.
06:34Didn't you say I had a swing and break?
06:37No.
06:37That was Melanie.
06:39What was Melanie?
06:41As if by magic.
06:43Ah, we were just, uh,
06:45having a little stroll down in memory, Liam.
06:49Haven't come to start trouble.
06:56Hey!
07:01I'll bring you to school.
07:02Whatever.
07:03I'll stay with Maggie a bit.
07:11So, are you going to work on Ben for me?
07:13Or am I going to have to pull the pin on Stairgate?
07:16I have only been out of hospital for two minutes.
07:19Well, you're home now, and I need to know today, by tea time.
07:23So you're going to invite me round.
07:25Will needs stability.
07:27Well, Max, just tell Ben that Will needs to spend some quality time with his mum.
07:32OK.
07:42Summer?
07:44Hey, what's happened?
07:45Oh, no, I'm OK.
07:47It's not about me.
07:48What is it?
07:50I'm just, I'm worried sick about George.
07:53The police kept him in all night.
07:55Oh, darling.
07:57Oh, you've been through so much, you don't need this, do you?
08:01I mean, George wouldn't hurt a fly.
08:03And that fight with Theo was only looking out for Todd.
08:08Well, I've just got to let the police do the thing, eh?
08:10Yeah, I'm sure they'll realise that they're barking up the wrong tree soon.
08:14Yeah, they will, won't they?
08:15Yeah, 100%.
08:18Oh, right, what are my eyes saying?
08:21I've had a good blub, but I'm still gorgeous.
08:26Oh, I'm sorry.
08:27I just can't bear it for him.
08:29You're going to be OK?
08:31Yeah.
08:33No, thank you.
08:34But I'd better get going.
08:38Poor kid.
08:41Who do you think killed him?
08:46I've got no idea, but I'd shake him by the hand and buy him a pint.
08:51Jakey, what do you know?
08:57Do we have to tell him about the bed stuff?
08:59Yes, because it shows that she's vulnerable, all right?
09:01Why the U-turn?
09:03Because it's embarrassing, isn't it?
09:05And it doesn't help him find her.
09:07Well, we'll let the police be the judge of that.
09:09And if there's anything else, David, that you need to tell me you need to do it now.
09:12No, that's it.
09:12That's everything.
09:13Right, fine.
09:13Well, we're doing the right thing.
09:14Are we?
09:15And the whole street's going to know his business.
09:18If it helps them track her down, it doesn't matter.
09:22So I've got this straight.
09:23The nutso sister-in-law has some weird fixation on me and somehow I'm the one getting it in the
09:28net.
09:28Oh, poor David.
09:29My sister's missing and her blood's on our living room floor.
09:32Well, then why don't we tell him about the haulage, guys?
09:35Oh, genius.
09:36Genius, David.
09:37Why don't we just paint a target on Lily's back and all?
09:39Unbelievable.
09:40Longest day, I'm all right.
09:41Yeah, ditto.
09:42What's that, woman?
09:43You're going to bloody kill her!
09:46Oh.
09:47Oh, no.
09:48Oh, here he is.
09:49Yeah.
09:51He's back.
09:53How are you holding up?
09:54Hey, how are you holding up?
09:59Don't think I've really processed it.
10:00No.
10:02What have they said?
10:03Well, they've released me under investigation.
10:06They've probably got the bit between the teeth with this, though.
10:09Well, they did.
10:10And then Swain showed me this photo of some brooch that they found in your flat with blood on it.
10:15Brooch?
10:16Yeah.
10:16Seems like a big deal.
10:18So what did you say?
10:19Well, I said to her, I'm sorry.
10:20I'm something more of a string of pearls type of girl.
10:23He didn't say that.
10:24No.
10:26Just wanted to put a smile back on your lovely face.
10:28Come here.
10:31Tell you what, though, it's all going to come out in the wash, Chrissie.
10:33Pardon the pun.
10:36Sorry, love.
10:40Hello.
10:41Yes, speaking.
10:43Oh, hello, DS Swain.
10:47Yes, yeah, no.
10:49Yeah, no, well, I can come in straight away, yeah.
10:53Well, whatever good it'll do you, but yeah.
10:55Okay, yes, I will.
10:57All right, thank you.
10:57Bye-bye.
11:00What the oil are you in for now?
11:02They said they want me to help them with their inquiries.
11:20Are you married to my sister, for God's sake?
11:24Don't worry.
11:25I won't tell her.
11:27But please, you need to back off.
11:30I don't like you that way.
11:32I know what you're thinking.
11:33Is that right?
11:35Hot sister-in-law.
11:37Blah, blah, blah.
11:39But I'd never cheat on Shona, not in a million years.
11:43Well, your sidekick powers her way off.
11:45What I'm thinking is, why have you withheld information?
11:49Potential evidence for three days?
11:52I hadn't even told Shona.
11:54I was at your home yesterday to tell you about the blood.
11:58Look, I told her about the bedroom thing after you'd gone.
12:01All right, I told Sarah, actually.
12:04And it were her who told me that I should come clean to Shona.
12:07Sarah being your sister, Sarah Platt?
12:11Yes.
12:12Officer Green.
12:14In the voicemail, Jodie's apologising for knocking you back,
12:19reminding you that you're married to her sister.
12:23Yeah, I know.
12:24I'm not interested in her.
12:25I never have been.
12:26She's a fantasist.
12:27Oh, she's a missing fantasist.
12:29Look, I've told you about the whole tricking me into bed thing.
12:32I mean, she's nuts.
12:34She's all hazelnuts.
12:35Right, all that notwithstanding,
12:36her blood's been found at your home,
12:38and we've not heard a peep from her for three days.
12:42Why do you think I'm here?
12:43Well, presumably to assure you're innocent.
12:46About three days too late and a dollar sharp.
12:53I'll be ready in about 20.
12:55Oh, it smells lovely.
12:57You've got some very talented boys.
13:00Thank you very much for the invite, Maggie.
13:02The more the merrier.
13:03So, are you going back to Scotland tomorrow?
13:06Yeah, come with me if you like.
13:08What, tomorrow?
13:09Yeah, we're stopping you.
13:10He's got his GCSEs.
13:11So?
13:12The lad's traumatised.
13:13We can get a letter from his GP.
13:15He's in a routine here, Mum.
13:16I mean, that hasn't helped much, has it?
13:17Is he even safe to stay in Weatherfield?
13:19You are.
13:20Don't be scaremongering.
13:21No, I'm not.
13:22What do you think, Maggie?
13:23With Megan at large,
13:25the change of scenery we'll do in the world of good.
13:27We can make sure that you do your revision,
13:30if and when you feel like it.
13:31I mean, there's no pressure,
13:33because the school's a little bit overrated, if you ask me.
13:35It's not happening, so drop it.
13:37Come on, Maggie.
13:38It's not like you to hold back.
13:40Will can do with a break, couldn't he?
13:41I suppose a week wouldn't harm the schoolwork.
13:45Oh, thanks, Ma.
13:46He needs to get back into the swing of things.
13:48Start knocking out with his mates again.
13:50You said so yourself.
13:51Do you know, you're right.
13:52I have the memory of a goldfish.
13:55Will is exactly where he needs to be.
14:00Right, that's told me.
14:02Interesting.
14:03How would you describe George's relationship with Theo?
14:06Oh.
14:07Oh, hated him.
14:09I mean, that was no secret.
14:12And it was mutual.
14:15Do you see, the thing to remember about Theo is,
14:17God rest his soul,
14:20he was a vile specimen,
14:22and George and I had a bird's-eye view of the whole thing.
14:27That must have been very hard for you.
14:29Oh, yes, it was.
14:30It was, especially for George,
14:31because Todd was, you know,
14:32he was like the son he'd never had.
14:35What were you planning to do with the polar shirt?
14:40Ah, yes, I, um...
14:44I panicked.
14:45Yeah, I mean, you would, wouldn't you?
14:47Wash it.
14:48Bin it.
14:48You haven't answered my question.
14:50I wish I'd burnt the flaming thing now.
14:52Bit drastic.
14:55Did you have a hunch that Theo was murdered?
14:57Er, no.
14:58Well, no, not until you told Todd yesterday,
15:01but I knew that he was dead,
15:03and I knew that it was blood,
15:04and I knew that my George had had a bust-up with him, so...
15:08And you wondered if it was Theo's blood?
15:10Well, if I did,
15:12it wasn't for, like, a nanosecond,
15:16because I thought George had killed him.
15:18I mean, certainly not on purpose.
15:24Right, so you...
15:25So you know that George and Todd
15:29locked Theo in the bathroom?
15:30Mm, and George's in quite a state afterwards.
15:33Well, yeah, I mean, you know,
15:35he's a lover, not a fighter.
15:38Why didn't George go with you to pick up Todd?
15:41Well, he'd have a drink.
15:42He didn't need two of us.
15:43He could only phone you from Inkeman Street.
15:45So George was alone when you went on your mercy dash?
15:47Oh, right.
15:48I see where this is going, OK?
15:50So you think
15:51that when I went to fetch Todd,
15:54George went to finish off Theo?
15:57Doesn't matter what I think.
15:59We deal in facts.
16:02George claims to have spent a period of time alone,
16:04but obviously we have no-one who can corroborate that.
16:12Erm...
16:13Yeah, I think I will...
16:14I will have that, um, solicitor.
16:16Thank you.
16:29She's just having a physio.
16:32No.
16:34Er, Lily's having tea at Ruby White's.
16:38Good.
16:41So?
16:44We've kept hold of it before.
16:48Sure you'll get it back?
16:49No.
16:50What did they say?
16:52Not a lot, really.
16:54Kept my cards close to the chest, just...
16:57I don't know why I'd sat on it for so long.
16:59Well, it's fair enough, I suppose.
17:04Well, I'm glad that they've kept you mobile.
17:06It means they're taking it seriously.
17:09This sort of bad could have happened, couldn't it?
17:14I don't know why I'd say it's not positive, but...
17:16I don't know how we're Geordie doing.
17:18She's got more layers in on you.
17:22Chances are, though, she's doing fine.
17:25She's looking after number one.
17:30Right, I'm going to try her again.
17:33Come on, get us a coffee.
17:40Hey, it's Jodie.
17:42You know the drill.
17:43Hiya, it's me.
17:46Um, right, I...
17:50I don't care about that stunt you pulled with David, all right?
17:58I just need to know you're okay.
18:01So come home.
18:04Please.
18:06Please.
18:26I just need to know you're okay.
18:54There's kayaking on the lock.
18:56There's go-karting in town.
18:58I mean, it's a reset.
18:59You'd love it.
19:01Maybe at half-term, if he wants to.
19:03Why wouldn't he?
19:05I'd keep him safe.
19:07Let's not fall out, guys.
19:09I mean, this family's been through a lot, hasn't it, Maggie, over the years?
19:12One thing after the other from year dot.
19:14Whatever game you're playing, Mel, stop it.
19:16Dad.
19:17Game?
19:17I just want my son to come and live with me.
19:19No chance.
19:20He's traumatised.
19:21He's vulnerable.
19:22He needs his mum.
19:23If I am traumatised, yeah, it's because of you lot.
19:26All of you.
19:27Constantly at me, 24-7.
19:28Talking about me like I'm not even in the room.
19:31All right, son.
19:32Look, I know you thought you loved her, but she's bad news.
19:35He did love her dad.
19:36You can at least give him that.
19:37Right, you're not helping.
19:39Will, darling, that woman only looks after number one.
19:42I mean, that's something we can agree on.
19:44I don't need this.
19:46Mate.
19:49Nice one.
19:57And then there were two.
20:01The last thing my grandson needs is to be alone with you.
20:04Bad move.
20:05Shut up.
20:06I haven't finished.
20:08But worse would be his whole family falling apart.
20:13She's still got it.
20:15I'll talk to Ben tomorrow.
20:16Ben tomorrow.
20:18When the right moment presents itself.
20:21You've got precisely 24 hours.
