00:10They were on our doorstep earlier, saying it was a murder investigation.
00:15Billy Mitchell, killer.
00:17Don't buy it.
00:19Hacking the day was a proper wrong'un.
00:21People can snap.
00:23Hmm.
00:24Why else would he have disappeared?
00:38Phil.
00:39There you go.
00:40Phil, you ain't got any idea where Billy is, have you?
00:42No, no, and you need to tell your lot.
00:43He's got nothing to do with it.
00:44We've got a 999 call of a woman screaming that she's being attacked by Billy Mitchell.
00:48We've got blood at a crime scene, a missing body.
00:51She's set him up, isn't she?
00:52And if he hands himself in, we can try and prove it.
00:54Try, try.
00:55Yeah, you said it yourself.
00:56The evidence is stacked against him, isn't it?
00:59Please help him.
01:00Pops can't go to prison.
01:05Is this for real?
01:07It's a murder inquiry.
01:10Oi!
01:11You know, this ain't a freak show, all right?
01:14It's Honey's life.
01:15You're just looking out for her.
01:16Yeah, I bet.
01:18Got yourself front row seats, did you?
01:19Got some fizzy drinks and popcorn.
01:22Go on, clear off.
01:23You know, show some respect.
01:29Just ignore them.
01:33I need to see Billy.
01:45Denise isn't, um...
01:47Is she?
01:51Dad, what's happened?
01:52No, nothing's happened.
01:55Is she okay?
01:59Her immune system's low.
02:03She ain't feeling great.
02:06No, but it is what it is.
02:10Kim, you know, she was supposed to visit, but she's bailed last minute.
02:15So, I'm going to get myself ready and I'm going to get down now.
02:18Do you want to talk about anything?
02:21No, it's fine.
02:26Always feel this way after a night shift.
02:29Just a late night's.
02:32Can I have a shave, a shower?
02:34I'll be better.
02:35Better be so.
02:46Phil.
02:46Don't worry, no-one saw us.
02:48Did you lock the door behind you?
02:49Yes, I ain't stupid.
02:51Billy?
02:55Oh, Billy.
02:56She?
02:57Oh.
02:58All right.
02:59Oh.
03:02What's happening out there?
03:04Phil said the place is cruel and the cop.
03:06It's horrible.
03:08What have you told the kids?
03:10Well, I told them the truth.
03:11I said that Bea's angry with you, that she's trashed the house,
03:14and that she's trying to make you look guilty.
03:16Look, they're safe at mine, all right?
03:18We're keeping them away from all the gossip.
03:20I shouldn't be hiding that, any.
03:21I should be talking to the police.
03:23No, no, no.
03:23With Bea still missing you, your bank of rights on you,
03:25and she's done a proper job on the house.
03:27DNA's all over you, it looked like.
03:28You've attacked her.
03:29No, no, no.
03:30I was trying to sling her out.
03:31She slipped over.
03:32Well, can't he tell them that, Phil?
03:34I mean, hiding out here's just going to make him look really guilty.
03:36No, with Bea still missing, it's too risky, hon.
03:39I told the punters it'd be in a water leak now by some time.
03:42Well, they'll find Bea soon enough, I know.
03:44If they don't...
03:48It's Linda.
03:50The detective's at the B&B and want to question me.
03:54After sabotaging my night and sealing my act,
03:57it should be Zoe Slater under tarpaulin, surrounded by evidence tags.
04:01Have a bit of respect.
04:02That's a murder investigation, though.
04:03Linda told you it was a stitch-up.
04:05Anyway, all I'm saying is,
04:07Zoe Slater is definitely not on my guest list for the wedding.
04:11Oh, yeah.
04:11Wedding guest list.
04:12A couple of thoughts about that.
04:14So I've taken off all the obvious notice.
04:16Stacey Slater.
04:17Can't make your map a bit quick.
04:19So, is she in your yes column?
04:22No, of course she ain't,
04:23but by the time you take off ex-husbands,
04:25ex-wives and lovers,
04:26you know her now.
04:27I want the old world to know how happy we are.
04:29So I reckon we invite everyone to know,
04:31draw a line under the past,
04:33be happy.
04:34Which is why, Max Brennan,
04:36I am marrying you.
04:39What would I do is celebrate my daughter's birthday?
04:41I know you missed your mum,
04:43but don't even go there, OK?
04:47I thought she found him sick yesterday.
04:48She looks all right to me.
04:49Nah, she goes up and down, doesn't she?
04:52I think she's had it tough
04:52since Robbie left her single mum and all that.
04:55Yeah.
04:56I suppose so.
04:58All right, I'll see you later.
04:59I'll be there.
05:19Do us a tea, will you?
05:20No, you can't, won't you?
05:22Your legs will be.
05:23Try a sauce Sasquatch out a couple, will you?
05:26All right, Picasso?
05:27Oh, let me just say,
05:29she does some beautiful jewellery design.
05:33Here's a look.
05:35Proper talent.
05:36Thanks.
05:38I've got a drawer full upstairs.
05:38Uh, yes, so, Jas,
05:40does your talent stretch to pulling pints, darling?
05:42Come on.
05:48Oh, that's nice.
05:51Yeah.
05:52How much?
05:53We will need to take elimination blood samples
05:55from you and your daughter
05:57to try and identify whose blood was found in your house.
05:59But we know that blood is bees.
06:00She's the only one unhinged enough to do it.
06:02No one else has been in my house.
06:04She called the police terrified of your husband.
06:06Anyone can put on a performance.
06:07Yeah, especially that delusional leech,
06:09who, by the way,
06:10wormed her way into Honey's life
06:11to try and destroy it.
06:13I allowed you to stay with Honey for support,
06:15but if you carry on like that,
06:16you will have to leave.
06:17We're just trying to tell you what she's like.
06:19All right, she sets this whole thing up.
06:21I'm afraid we have to follow the evidence in front of us.
06:24Look, please.
06:25I know this is going to sound crazy,
06:26but can you just trust me on this?
06:28Bee Pollard is an obsessive, jealous, manipulative woman.
06:31And she's done it before?
06:32Yes, she has.
06:33To a woman called Ruth, actually.
06:35I have her number.
06:36She did exactly the same thing.
06:38She became obsessed.
06:40Destroyed anyone who came in between their friendship.
06:43And she killed her dog!
06:44OK.
06:46Right now, we need to focus on finding Bee and your husband.
06:50This is a murder investigation,
06:52and Billy Mitchell is prime suspect,
06:54and we don't necessarily need a body to charge him.
06:57So anyone helping him hide
06:59could face a maximum penalty of life in prison.
07:03So do you know where he is?
07:09You're inviting everybody.
07:11Oh.
07:11Even Dad.
07:12Even Ian.
07:13Well, why not?
07:14The more the merrier.
07:16It's time to celebrate.
07:17OK.
07:19Well, I'll just give Junior a call then, should I?
07:21Er, maybe don't.
07:24Anyway, even if you did,
07:26Max wouldn't be threatened by that.
07:28But we know how much we love each other, Gina.
07:36What is it?
07:38I spoke to Anna last night.
07:41Told her about the wedding.
07:43I thought she'd be happy.
07:45I thought she'd want to come.
07:47Well, she's not coming.
07:50She'd been out partying.
07:52I could tell she was drunk.
07:54But, you know, Ian, Junior, your Dad,
07:58she just didn't take it seriously.
08:00Said, oh, another man you're in love with.
08:05But what's she saying today, though?
08:12Come on, she's apologised for being harsh.
08:14And she says she hopes you'll be happy.
08:17She's even signed it off love you with five kisses.
08:20Yeah, but she's still not coming.
08:22Yeah, but it's hard.
08:23She's...
08:25She's travelling.
08:26She's wrapped up in her own life.
08:28It's a big adventure.
08:29But I'm still her mum.
08:33Surely that should mean something.
08:38Oh, I need to go.
08:42Thanks.
08:52Oh, this is exactly what I need.
08:56Can I just talk to you a sec?
08:58Can you get my text?
08:59Yeah.
09:01Look, I saw how tense things were with Abani here,
09:03but if you come to me every time you get upset, Priya,
09:06then I'm just a bit worried you're going to want to start opening up to me.
09:11Okay, that's never going to happen.
09:12Look, this ain't emotional, okay?
09:13I'm not like a shoulder to cry on.
09:16Do I look like I'm crying?
09:17I love Cindy.
09:18She's my future, and when I say I do, all of this has got to finish, yeah?
09:22Yes.
09:23This is your final flame before you settle down.
09:25I get it.
09:27Now, come on.
09:30Priya, I can't, honestly.
09:31I've got a client who's waiting for me.
09:33Max, it's the final flame.
09:36And so far, I ain't been flung.
09:50What am I teaching my kids, eh?
09:52What am I doing?
09:53Hiding in here, running away from me problems.
09:55Billy?
09:56Billy?
09:57It's me.
09:59Forget what I said to you.
10:01The police are not going to believe a single word that comes out of your mouth.
10:04You know, I told her that you were being framed, yeah?
10:07And she looked at me like I was the crazy one.
10:09It did sound far-fetched when she said it out loud.
10:11I mean, that detective ain't going to give you the benefit of the doubt.
10:15But we're just going to have to find her ourselves.
10:16It's the only way.
10:17And how are you going to do that?
10:21Look, we all know she's doing this because she's obsessed with me, yeah?
10:25And I know that sounds arrogant when I say it, but...
10:28Oh, honey, it's a pretty fair assumption.
10:30Look, she craves attention.
10:32She's desperate to be loved.
10:34She's obsessed with social media.
10:35I mean, I don't know.
10:36I mean, maybe we could use that to lure her back here.
10:39To catch a bee, you need to set a honey trap.
10:42Exactly.
10:43Yeah.
10:44Yeah.
10:45And I'm going to need everyone's help to do it.
10:47Yeah.
10:50Oh, OK.
10:53Dirty matcha caramel latte.
10:55Iced.
10:55No hot.
10:56No iced.
10:58What?
10:58I was just guessing a drink.
11:01Americana.
11:02Americana.
11:03Treat and me.
11:04Yeah, that's where the saying should end.
11:06Things OK with the two?
11:08Well, three, I think.
11:11I need something other than brothers and boyfriends in my life for a while.
11:15Oh.
11:20Oi.
11:21Where'd you get that from?
11:23Brought it off Moe.
11:28Well, that sounds like an interesting idea.
11:32What is she on about?
11:33Candlelit vigil for Bea.
11:35In the day.
11:37But aren't the police looking for Billy?
11:38He hasn't done anything.
11:39Look, trust me.
11:40All right, Bea has completely lost the plot.
11:42She's done all of this to set him up.
11:44Yeah, we've got to do something to prove that he's innocent.
11:46Well, how's this going to help?
11:47Well, we thought, you know, if we do a live stream on the square, saying how much I miss
11:52her, she won't be able to resist coming back because, well, she's obsessed with me.
11:57Am I the only one who's going to point out how ridiculous this sounds?
12:01My Billy is facing prison for a murder that hasn't even happened, Chelsea.
12:08He's the love of my life.
12:10He's the father of my children.
12:11And, yeah, it might sound ridiculous, but it's all I've got.
12:16So, if you care about me, if you care about Billy, you'll get out there and make it look
12:21convincing, please.
12:24Yeah, good show, honey.
12:25Right, come on, you lot.
12:26Let's get out there for Billy, yeah?
12:27Come on, let's go.
12:28Well, I'm in.
12:28Me and all.
12:30She should have seen that.
12:31Stop.
12:32Let's go.
12:36Yeah, like, she just keeps going on and on about my birthday to, like, I don't know,
12:40cheer me up or something.
12:41Because you miss your dad?
12:43Yeah, but for me, it's like, just let me sulk about it.
12:47Like, I don't want to go bowling with her and nugget.
12:48Like, I'm not eight.
12:50Bowling?
12:50Yeah, like, she just keeps trying to force happy families and it's so annoying.
12:56All right, I'll see you later, yeah?
12:59All right, see ya.
13:01It's not easy being a mum, you know.
13:04Wait, sorry, what?
13:05Oh, Maxie, is it all at work?
13:08Look, yeah, I get you're missing Ravi, but maybe show your mum a bit more respect, yeah?
13:13Are you for real?
13:16What is your problem?
13:22Do I act like she's missing or do I believe that she's dead?
13:27Go dead.
13:28In for a penny, in for a pound.
13:31Jack's just messaged, wants to know if we're going to see Denise tonight.
13:35Look, I know it's difficult with all this Sheila stuff, but she's going to know you're avoiding her.
13:40I've got no choice, have I?
13:42And I look sad for honey.
13:45Have you got the flowers in photo?
13:47Yeah.
13:48And we are live.
13:51Gathered friends, I just wanted to say how moved I am that you've all come out here to show your
13:59love and compassion.
14:01Alfie.
14:14What can I say about Bee?
14:18Wonderful.
14:20Beautiful.
14:22Beaming.
14:24Beady.
14:25Beaverish Bee.
14:26She rang that try.
14:29On behalf of the entire community, I just wanted to say how devastated we are by your tragic passing.
14:38And that a light has gone out from my life's name.
14:46Bee, you were the bestest friend I've ever had.
14:51And I just wish I had one more chance to have a conversation with you.
14:56One final opportunity to look you in the eye and say the things I always wanted to say.
15:06Alfie.
15:07Rest in peace.
15:09Amen.
15:15That was wonderful.
15:17That'll do it.
15:18Okay.
15:18It's on.
15:19I don't know if I can.
15:20No, it's great.
15:20I'm not sure.
15:24This is all sorts of messed up, right?
15:27When your best friend goes missing, next thing you're holding a seance in the square.
15:30I'm sorry.
15:30What, you're asking me to talk about something emotional?
15:33I'm not doing that with you.
15:34Oh, well, now you're starting to speak my kind of language.
15:39I forgot my keys.
15:41Oh, yeah.
15:43Yeah, oh, and while I'm here, stop running your mouth off about a business in front of other people.
15:48What are you on about?
15:49Well, I just had Cindy all up in my face basically trying to say that I'm a brat and that
15:53you're some sort of saint just because you're a mum.
15:55She did what?
15:56Exactly.
15:56So watch what you say in here because he can't keep his mouth shut.
16:00Okay?
16:06I actually found that quite emotional.
16:09Yeah.
16:11Oi, you got something of mine?
16:14Tracy's new necklace.
16:20Yeah, you're lucky, um, your first sale, 20 quid.
16:26She paid 30.
16:30Don't look at me.
16:31You're your own worst enemy.
16:39Oi, hold up.
16:41It's bang out of order, Nan.
16:43I've got an eye for these things.
16:45I could frog the lot.
16:46Yeah, it's still half the profits.
16:48We could do 60-40.
16:50No!
16:5070-30?
16:53What is your problem?
16:55Don't you need the extra cash?
17:00You know what?
17:03Maybe I do.
17:05Hey, Penny.
17:07Is your store still up for grabs?
17:09Uh, yeah.
17:10Why?
17:12I think I might run it.
17:17Yeah, all right, fair enough.
17:18Cindy shouldn't have said anything.
17:19But when we saw you and Avani together, yeah.
17:22You looked a bit stressed.
17:23Oh, so you decided to have a little chit-chat about poor old me?
17:25Wasn't like that.
17:26Right before you came round and had sex with me?
17:28Uh, keep your voice down, and that weren't why I come round.
17:30You know that.
17:30I don't need you judging me.
17:32You're just trying to be nice.
17:33Here's a new rule for our little thing, okay?
17:35Don't go gossiping to your fiancée about me and my kids.
17:37Or I might go around gossiping about you.
17:59Well, we need to give it a bit of time.
18:03Yeah, look, I'm going to go and check on Will and Janet, yeah?
18:06Oh, thank you.
18:11I just can't believe she would set all this up.
18:15You know, part of me, part of me thinks it could be a mistake that, you know, we've all got
18:21this wrong and...
18:23Oh, maybe I'm just being naive and stupid.
18:27No, you're just being lovely.
18:30Never change.
18:33Shall we go?
18:35Do you know what?
18:36I might squeeze in with Nicola.
18:38I think I'd like to be with the kids.
18:39Of course.
18:40I'm going to be two minutes.
18:42Okay.
18:42No, I don't.
18:43Night-night.
18:58I'm going to be with the kids.
19:44No, Bea!
19:48Bea!
19:50Bea, get back here!
19:52Bea!
19:57Bea!
19:59Bea, stop!
19:59Stop!
20:18Bea.
20:23You're standing a bit down.
20:25Let it come round.
20:29Get some chocolate.
20:35Show Mum in it.
20:36Yeah.
20:39Well, chocolate's not going to do it then.
20:41No.
20:42That's exactly what I need right now.
20:50Some days I don't even think about her.
20:53But with Denise being in hospital...
20:55She's a close thing you have to her mum, right?
20:58I can't lose her too.
21:01Dad's all over the place.
21:03So, that one's really talking.
21:06Yeah.
21:07Yeah, Kim's the same.
21:08She's a wreck.
21:11I just feel so useless.
21:13No, I'm not.
21:14I'm not.
21:16It's all right.
21:17You're not useless.
21:20You're amazing.
21:23I know she will.
21:24And Denise, she's so strong.
21:28She's going to get through this.
21:31I know she will.
21:35Why don't we do something tomorrow night?
21:37If we can get a few people together,
21:39we can take our minds off all this.
21:44My dad's on nights.
21:46He could come here.
21:48Sweet.
22:01I know it's you.
22:10Bea.
22:13I know you're here.
22:25I just want to make sure you're okay.
22:37I heard what you said about me.
22:41Did you?
22:45I meant every word, you know.
22:46I really did.
22:50Oh, Bea.
22:52Please come home.
22:55It's not fair on Billy.
22:57No, no, no, no, no.
22:58Don't talk about him.
22:59It's OK.
23:04Listen.
23:07My eyes are open now.
23:11Well, I know what a monster he is, and I'm definitely leaving him.
23:22Thing is, the police think that he killed you, so he could go to prison.
