00:30Paddy, I'm fine.
00:43Good.
00:45So's Ella.
00:46Well, Mandy said she's still a bit worried,
00:49but I'm sure they'll put her mind at rest at the scan.
00:52I appreciate the situation's a bit awkward.
00:54Mandy's her friend, but...
00:57If you've come to dissuade me from going to the scan...
00:59I just thought you'd appreciate her sounding bored.
01:01Might want to offload after yesterday.
01:03Look, if you weren't concerned for her,
01:05you wouldn't have put her up in a B&B last night.
01:07I tell you what concerns me, is I cannot trust a word she says.
01:10Maybe she doesn't trust anyone.
01:12Maybe she hides behind her lies,
01:14like a mask.
01:16Did Mandy read that in a magazine?
01:18No.
01:20I did.
01:22Look, we're all bang on about supporting people,
01:25but when you scratch the surface,
01:27we're all a bit judgy.
01:28I'm not unsympathetic, but...
01:31do I really want that woman in my life,
01:33raising my child?
01:35So it is your child now.
01:37She's having a paternity test, so...
01:40we'll know soon enough.
01:44Maybe I shouldn't go.
01:46Miss the first milestone of your child's life?
01:50Might regret that later.
01:53I know sleeping in Angelica's room isn't ideal.
01:57It is a bit like sleeping in a shrine,
01:59but I can cope with all the pink.
02:01I'm just grateful to have family around me.
02:04How's Belle settling in?
02:07I don't know.
02:09I'm giving her some space.
02:12You're a good lad.
02:27Coffee at the B&B still not improved?
02:30Nope.
02:32And the barista in here is really hot.
02:37Tea?
02:38Hot and sweet, just like you.
02:40Still got it.
02:43I'm here because a cafe is the perfect place for an alibi.
02:47Are you taking a hit out on Caleb?
02:49Codename Icarus.
02:51Flew too close to the sun and crashed and burned.
02:54Didn't know you studied the classics.
02:56I haven't, but I watch QI.
02:58I've got a crush on that bloke.
02:59Stephen Fry?
03:00No, the thick one.
03:02Seriously though, what's this surprise you've got planned for Caleb?
03:06If I told you that, I would have to kill you.
03:09You reckon you could take me in a scrap?
03:13You'd probably fight dirty.
03:15Besides, it's the best you don't know.
03:17Clauseable deniability.
03:19Yeah, well, as long as it's not you who gets burned.
03:21No chance.
03:23I'm wearing Kevlar knickers.
03:26Oh, these pictures are beautiful.
03:29Can we go and live in Bali?
03:31No.
03:32You're so mean, I should divorce you for unreasonable behaviour.
03:35I'm working.
03:36You can work remotely from Bali.
03:38Why do we always have to come back to the village of the dam?
03:40There's always trouble and stress here.
03:42We could be having beaches and sun.
03:45Don't answer that, you're a bad, bad husband.
03:47Hey, hey, no.
03:51Oh, Caleb Milligan's super villain, who's this?
03:53Oh.
03:55Ah, sorry, officer.
03:57What's up?
03:58What is it, is it Nicky?
04:03Oh my God, when?
04:05Right, yeah.
04:07Yeah, I'll come straight over now.
04:09Right.
04:11Her car phone's burned down.
04:13Early hours.
04:19Rachel.
04:20Hi.
04:21Hiya.
04:23You missed your appointment again.
04:25I was worried about you.
04:27How've things been?
04:40Ella.
04:42You okay?
04:43Any more pains?
04:44It's been fine overnight.
04:46I think it's better if I do this on my own.
04:49Well, for who, you?
04:52I'll do the scan and I'll grab you a copy of the screenshot or whatever.
04:54Ella, I'm coming.
04:56I don't want you there.
04:58Why?
04:59Because of this.
05:01You doubting and judging me.
05:03I'm meeting my unborn baby for the first time
05:05and I don't want you to spoil it for me.
05:12You've definitely got your mum's smile.
05:17So, Tom's moved out and you've moved back in.
05:19Yeah.
05:21I know, it's a lot.
05:23I've just been a mess ever since we got married.
05:25So it wasn't fair on him.
05:27You said it was you who ended things?
05:29How's Tom taking the break-up?
05:31He's even had the locks changed for me.
05:33Has he?
05:35Yeah, that was a boundary.
05:37To just make this place feel like my own.
05:39No dropping in.
05:41Good for you.
05:43That's important.
05:47I meant to put that away earlier.
05:49Well, you can do whatever you like with the place now.
05:51It's yours.
05:53Really make it your own.
05:55And how are you feeling in yourself, Belle?
05:57You taking your meds now?
05:59Lydia phoned
06:01and asked for some advice.
06:03Your family were all really concerned about you
06:05when you came off him.
06:07That was just a big misunderstanding.
06:09I never stopped taking them.
06:11Tom got the wrong end of the stick.
06:13Well, if you ever find you don't want to talk
06:15to your family or your mates,
06:17Tom is here for a chat.
06:19No pressure.
06:21Thanks.
06:23I'm good, I'm moving on.
06:25Taking control of your life
06:27might seem a bit scary,
06:29but I bet it feels good, too.
06:31And if you find you ever get lonely here on your own,
06:33you've got plenty of family to bother.
06:35I know.
06:37Thanks for coming, Rachel.
06:39Bye.
06:47♪ ♪
07:17Yes, so it was on the local news.
07:19Apparently, Caleb's building and all his stock
07:21went up in flames.
07:23Oh, all those beautiful luxury cars.
07:25What a waste.
07:27Oh, sorry, are you in the middle of a committee meeting?
07:29Oh, heaven forbid, no.
07:31I'm starting a book club.
07:33Are you interested?
07:35I'm in. So's Bob.
07:37Help me.
07:39Well, actually, my evenings are quite free now,
07:41so, well, I suppose I could start reading, yeah.
07:43Perfect.
07:45Perfect.
07:47I'll add you to our group chat.
07:49Oh, lovely.
07:51Oh, what are you doing here?
07:53I thought we were going to do different shifts.
07:57I want to establish some ground rules.
07:59I'd like you to run
08:01any senior management decisions past me.
08:03Menus, rotas,
08:05I'll be doing the ordering, too.
08:07We need to keep a check on the budget.
08:09Why are you micromanaging me, Jay?
08:11You used to undermine me,
08:13and I let it go because we were married.
08:15But now you're just staff,
08:17so you need to do things my way
08:19and show me the proper respect.
08:21I don't really know what to say to that, excuse me.
08:31Everything OK?
08:33No, I've got my scan this afternoon
08:35and the stupid taxi's been stuck on five minutes away
08:37since forever.
08:39Oh, great.
08:41You've cancelled on me.
08:43Leaving early?
08:45I hate being late.
08:47Well,
08:49I could drive you.
08:51I promise not to say or do
08:53anything to ruin it for you.
08:57Ella, if this is Liam's baby, do you not think he should be there?
08:59And if it is,
09:01then I would hate to miss this milestone.
09:05Guess I can't say no, then.
09:11Well, it's a complete mess.
09:13Everything's burnt out.
09:15Thank God I got the insurance
09:17before we went away.
09:19Yes,
09:21that was pretty good timing.
09:23I told the detective you were on your way back
09:25so she said she'd wait.
09:27Mr Milligan, 1L.
09:29Caleb, also 1L.
09:33I just have a few preliminary questions.
09:35Where were you
09:37in the early hours of this morning
09:39between 4 and 6am?
09:41I was here, asleep with my wife.
09:43Just tell her that.
09:45Sorry, I don't really understand why you're here.
09:47The fire investigator suspects arson.
09:49So we're investigating.
09:51You think someone set the place on fire?
09:53Who'd want to do that?
09:55Well, hopefully I'll find out.
09:57Well, if it is arson.
10:01I understand you had some cars stolen
10:03from these same premises a few months ago?
10:05Er, yeah.
10:07Yeah, that's right.
10:09They were never recovered and there have been no arrests to date?
10:11No.
10:13And you're still with the same insurance company?
10:15Yeah, same one.
10:17And you increased the premiums just before your holiday?
10:19So what?
10:21A couple of weeks ago?
10:25How's business been lately?
10:29Yeah, it's good, thanks.
10:31Why?
10:33As I said,
10:35I have a few preliminary questions.
10:37But we'll wait for the fire investigator's
10:39conclusive report.
10:41And if it does confirm arson,
10:43I will find out who's responsible.
10:45Who's responsible?
11:05Hiya, love.
11:07Is your camera broken?
11:09No, it's fine.
11:11Well, aren't you best leaving it up then?
11:13I don't want to hear on you, Todd.
11:15I never wanted it up there in the first place.
11:17It's my decision now, isn't it?
11:19Of course it is, love.
11:21And hey, if anyone knows how to disable a CCTV system,
11:23it's our family, eh?
11:25Rude.
11:27I've got some new keys, so I'll give you a spare.
11:29Righty-ho.
11:31I'm meeting Kim in the pub,
11:33if you fancy coming.
11:35I heard you spoke to Rachel
11:37about my meds.
11:39We were worried about you.
11:41But I wouldn't just stop taking them.
11:43Quite right.
11:45Hey, um,
11:47do you fancy coming to ours for tea later?
11:51Great. Vinnie will be pleased to see you.
12:01Reminds me of that stuff in Ghostbusters.
12:03What, ectoplasm?
12:05OK.
12:07Are you ready to meet your baby?
12:09I'm a bit scared.
12:11Your dad looks more nervous than you.
12:25Is there a problem?
12:29Are you having difficulty
12:31locating it?
12:33What's up?
12:35Is the machine dodgy?
12:37Why else?
12:39Well, keep trying, I'll maybe get somebody else to do it.
12:41I'll get me doctor
12:43to take a look.
12:51I knew it.
12:55She'd never have got my hopes up.
12:57What?
13:01Why can't she find her heartbeat?
13:03Well,
13:05that's because
13:07there is no fetus.
13:09A baby, Liam.
13:11I told you it's a baby.
13:15Are you saying it's died?
13:17Oh, spare me the...
13:21Ella,
13:23you're not pregnant.
13:25And you never were, were you?
13:27What?
13:29No, I am.
13:31Wait! The doctor's coming.
13:33Come in.
13:35That's why you didn't want me to tag along.
13:39It makes perfect sense now.
13:57Now,
13:59I don't want one of those apologies.
14:01Come with me, Jay, OK?
14:03I got an email from your solicitor
14:05about
14:07declaring assets.
14:09Oh, that's just a standard form.
14:11I've had to fill one in, so...
14:13But why?
14:15You've got your house, I've got mine, so...
14:17Yeah, but I've got a mortgage, unlike you.
14:19Really?
14:21OK, I see.
14:23So you want to get your hands
14:25on my half of Holgate.
14:27Hmm?
14:29Two can play that game, Laurie.
14:31Won't you stop? Just fill the forms in,
14:33go to mediation, so we can keep amicable,
14:35all right? Thank you.
14:37Thank you. Bye-bye. See you soon.
14:39Bye.
14:41Mediation?
14:43Sounds more like a negotiation.
14:45So you kicked me out and now you want to rinse me?
14:47No, it doesn't matter who
14:49ended things, OK? But I am still
14:51entitled to my fair share.
14:53There you have it.
14:55Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
14:57Exhibit A.
14:59Rest my case.
15:28I know how it looks,
15:30but I didn't burn my own place down.
15:32It's got to have been an accident.
15:34What if it wasn't?
15:39Nah.
15:41Nah, she might be a vengeful witch,
15:43but her beast's ancient history,
15:45it'd make no sense.
15:49Look out.
15:51Incoming.
15:53How was the holiday?
15:55Thailand, wasn't it?
15:57Poor man's borough borough.
15:59It was a barley, actually.
16:01You need better intel.
16:03Or maybe I just need to pay more.
16:05Heard about that terrible fire
16:07at your premises.
16:09I told you about that.
16:11Is that smoke
16:13I can smell on you?
16:15Or desperation?
16:17No, it's neither. It's anticipation
16:19of a nice big fat insurance payout.
16:25No, seriously.
16:27I thought it was deliberate.
16:29Don't let that detective rattle you.
16:33That man,
16:35that has a good poker face.
16:37But if anyone thinks
16:39they can dupe me, they can think again.
16:45Ooh.
16:47Do you know, I reckon we need
16:49a good thriller.
16:51What about a Grisham?
16:53Jane Eyre.
16:55Moonraker.
16:57Hey, we could read
16:59all the Bonds.
17:03Go and see if the lads have any ideas.
17:07How's it going, chaps?
17:09Kim Tate said I was hot
17:11earlier. Had she been drinking?
17:13Stone cold sober.
17:15I mean, she was mocking me,
17:17of course, but still.
17:19Laurel's after rinsing me for my assets.
17:21That didn't take long.
17:23Well, that doesn't sound like her.
17:25She was happy to have an affair with you.
17:27I'm sorry, what is it?
17:29International Kate Bob Day?
17:31Yeah, come on, Jay. It's probably best if me and Bob
17:33stay neutral on this one.
17:35Why? Moral Laurel
17:37is not the victim here.
17:39Believe me.
17:51Are you absolutely sure?
18:03I mean, I'm not a trained
18:05sonographer, but
18:07pretty certain I would have
18:09recognised her foetus.
18:11So there was no baby?
18:13There never was.
18:15She just made the whole thing up.
18:17But why would she do all this?
18:19Because she's unhinged, Paddy.
18:23She killed her friend,
18:25visited that poor child's
18:27mother, who's vulnerable
18:29with dementia,
18:31and made her think that she
18:33was her daughter. I mean...
18:37I don't know, she must just get some kind of
18:39sick thrill from it.
18:41I'm sorry.
18:43I'm so sorry. This is just
18:45beyond cruel.
18:47But she acted
18:49like she was massively shocked.
18:55You know,
18:57when we were in front of the
18:59ultrasound
19:01screen,
19:05I really allowed myself
19:07to start to feel like
19:09I could be a father again.
19:13See, you know, it just feels like
19:15yet
19:17another loss.
19:19I'm sorry.
19:21I knew it.
19:23I knew
19:25I shouldn't have believed her.
19:27And the sonographer
19:29called me Dad.
19:31Yeah.
19:35And now this
19:39fictitious fantasy baby
19:41is gone.
19:43It's gone. You know, what am I supposed to do with that?
19:47And I should be relieved
19:49there is no baby, because the woman
19:51is obviously deeply disturbed.
19:57She needs to leave, Paddy.
20:01I want her gone.
20:03Thanks
20:11for ringing.
20:13I didn't know what else to do
20:15or where else to go.
20:17The hospital called me after you both ran off.
20:19They're very worried about
20:21you.
20:23As am I. Come on.
20:29I just started walking and I found myself
20:31on the bus.
20:35What did I do wrong?
20:37Nothing.
20:39There's nothing you could have done.
20:41They couldn't see my baby
20:43on the scan and
20:45now Liam thinks I've made the whole thing up.
20:51I'm not mad, Mampreet.
20:53I did tests.
20:55I didn't imagine the results
20:57and neither did Liam.
20:59No, I know.
21:01And he will have seen this kind of thing
21:03before. Sadly, it's not that rare.
21:05What kind of thing?
21:09What you had
21:11was an anembrionic pregnancy.
21:13It used to be called
21:15a blighted ovum or silent miscarriage.
21:17It's basically where the sperm
21:19fertilises the egg.
21:21The egg implants in the uterus
21:23but it fails to develop.
21:25So there was a
21:27real baby.
21:29Yes, you did conceive.
21:33You were definitely pregnant.
21:47Tonight at 9
21:49DCI Stan Hope uncovers
21:51a web of intrigue, betrayal and lost
21:53promises in order to find her killer.
21:55That's Vera, but first
21:57to find out if tonight's new set of famous
21:59faces can master a hob.
22:01It's new Cooking with the Stars next.
