00:00You're sure it's him?
00:14The passer has already been formally identified by his wife.
00:18Did he leave a note?
00:19Go to your room and put your headphones on.
00:21Go now.
00:25He wanted me to withdraw my statement.
00:35He couldn't bear the thought of standing trial.
00:38We can never know what's going through a person's mind at a time like this, but what we can
00:43say with absolute certainty, this is not your fault.
00:52We'll need to take your statement.
00:54I'll be in touch in the morning.
00:56Well, thank you, Officer Tates.
01:04I reckon we could all do with a drink.
01:05No.
01:07Go to your bed.
01:16I just need a little touch.
01:24I'll be right back.
01:51You alright?
01:54Bet you wish them two hadn't shown up.
01:57I knew it had to happen sometime.
01:59Yeah, but I mean, you wasn't expecting that, though, was you?
02:02Going behind your back, changing things up.
02:05It's not fair, Rhys.
02:08You need a drink.
02:09No.
02:10After the day you've had, hot chocolate ain't gonna cut it.
02:13Please, let me do this.
02:16I've given you so much grief the last couple of weeks, and, you know, Sonia would not want
02:21me behaving like this.
02:24Let me make it up to you, please.
02:29I'm sorry.
02:36Well, maybe just a while.
02:37Yes.
02:38Come on.
02:45Do you want me to have a word with Ian about what he said to Anna?
02:48I could do my concerned big brother routine.
02:50Don't you dare.
02:52I want you as far away from Ian as possible.
02:56What the hell is he doing here?
02:57Come on, Finn, let's in.
02:59Come in!
03:00Quick, out of the booth.
03:02What?
03:03Get out!
03:04If you'll keep me waiting just for three more minutes,
03:06if I only want to talk to you, please.
03:09Don't say a word.
03:10Come in!
03:16Ian.
03:17Better later than never.
03:20He loves to come and get me, you know, Ian.
03:22I can't make it down Bridge Street on my own.
03:25We both know it doesn't take an hour to find a laptop.
03:29Come on.
03:30Tell me the truth.
03:32Why are you really here?
03:37It's really all right, I'm moorish.
03:40Funny word, isn't it?
03:41Moorish.
03:43Moorish.
03:45Well, take me out after your race, because relationships ain't easy.
03:50I mean, I sort of fell into most of mine, you know,
03:53like a drain I couldn't get out of.
03:55Of course, it's, uh...
03:56Aunty Dorothy has to take the real credit.
03:58Aw.
03:59The rest are...
04:00It's a lot.
04:07I mean, you've had two amazing relationships.
04:09I've barely had one.
04:11It's not true.
04:13Not what Brenda said.
04:14Me and Debbie.
04:15We were so mismatched on the outside, but...
04:19...on the inside, we were...
04:22...sympatico.
04:25Oh, it means on the same wavelength.
04:27Oh.
04:28So you didn't know that she'd changed the wheel, then?
04:32I mean...
04:34It's not fair, is it?
04:35Because if Debbie had a problem,
04:36she should have spoke to you about it, the heartless cow.
04:39Please, don't speak about Debbie like that.
04:43Maybe it's time for that hot chocolate after all.
04:51Do you seriously expect me to believe it?
04:53You've been in this place all this time,
04:55giving it a good once-over.
04:56Yeah, well, I came in to find my laptop,
04:58and then I noticed the state of the place,
05:00so I thought I'd get my cloth out.
05:02But it's therapeutic.
05:03You relax by counting money.
05:05I relax by scrubbing grout in.
05:07How long have we known each other, love?
05:09Well, two of us.
05:11How long have we known each other, love?
05:13Well, to avoid ageing us both, I'd say a long time.
05:16And in that long time,
05:17I don't think you've even used the word grouting,
05:19never mind clean any.
05:20In fact, you bought a job lot of shammy leathers
05:22back in the 80s,
05:23and I swear, they are still in the loft,
05:25untouched by human hands.
05:26All right, Ian, you've proved your point.
05:31You...
05:33...are hiding in here.
05:36Hm.
05:37What's the last thing I've said about the Anna thing?
05:41Well, would you blame me?
05:44Well...
05:46Look, I've had time to think,
05:48and I shouldn't have spoke to her the way I did.
05:50I mean, especially what I said about
05:52her sniffing around Bobby's best mate.
05:54Yeah, well, I thought you might have forgiven me after 30 years.
05:58Yeah, well, Bobby being gone,
06:00maybe I'm finding it harder than I thought.
06:02Bobby will always be your son, Ian,
06:04and Anna will always be my daughter.
06:06Yeah.
06:07That was never going to work out well for us, was it?
06:09The two of them dating.
06:11Yeah, very selfish of them, I thought.
06:13Yeah, it's like they weren't even thinking of us, was it?
06:16So, come on, then.
06:17Let's leave the VAT.
06:19All right?
06:20Let's go home and watch a film.
06:21Yeah, sounds great.
06:22I'll see you at home, then.
06:26Ian, I really need to finish off this paperwork.
06:28It'll only take ten minutes.
06:31I won't relax until I do it.
06:33I'll see you at home.
06:35Oh, sorry.
06:37Look, if you can't forget about doing the VAT
06:39and you obviously haven't forgiven me,
06:41then I will just wait here.
06:43I will wait here all night if I have to.
06:47Oh!
06:49You really are a pest sometimes, Ian.
06:52Come on.
07:07Come on.
07:29Great.
07:37Ah.
07:45Ah.
07:56I just wanted him to admit what he did.
07:59To acknowledge the...
08:03...damage.
08:05And pain.
08:09I didn't want this.
08:12The man was too afraid to face justice,
08:15so he took things into his own hands.
08:18Suicide is never the answer.
08:21Nothing wrong with being glad that he dead.
08:24Huh?
08:25I know I am.
08:30He asked me today
08:33if I hated him.
08:38And the truth is
08:43a bottomless burn and rage consumed me.
08:47Yes, understandable, dear.
08:49But that is not who I am, Patrick.
08:51That is not who I want to be.
08:55If it had been anyone else who had taken their own life,
08:59I would have gone down on my knees
09:01and prayed for their soul.
09:03But he don't deserve it.
09:05I know that.
09:07But I have a need to find the compassion in me
09:14to do it anyway.
09:17Please, God.
09:22I can do it.
09:26Maybe I can heal.
09:31I think I'm going to call it a night.
09:33Look, I shouldn't have said that.
09:36I'm sorry.
09:37Come and sit down.
09:38Come on, come and sit down.
09:41I know you think I'm just some gobby cow,
09:43but I do know what it's like
09:45when someone you love doesn't love you back.
09:49And the funny thing is,
09:53you don't blame them, you blame yourself.
09:55It's horrible.
09:58I don't understand how I could have got everything so wrong.
10:02No, I...
10:05I don't think you're the one that's wrong.
10:08I think they are.
10:10You know, every time I turn a corner,
10:12I've got someone trying to tell me that I ain't right.
10:17Do you know what I think about that, Rhys?
10:22Sod them.
10:24Sod the lot of them.
10:27Even Sonia can't be bothered with me half the time.
10:31Sonia always sees the best in me.
10:45Well, she'd do anything to help me.
10:48She was even going to sell this place.
10:52Because that's what love is, isn't it?
10:55It's not rewriting your will,
10:57making sure your grieving husband
10:59doesn't have anything proper to remember you by.
11:02I've spent everything
11:05on Debbie's care.
11:08Over ten years of marriage,
11:10and I've got absolutely nothing to show for it.
11:24Sonia.
11:55God.
12:09I can't believe the way that Brenda spoke to you.
12:11I mean, if that was me, I'd have punched her in the face.
12:15What am I like?
12:16Look, using your letter as a coaster.
12:19Like it's nothing important.
12:22It's a...
12:23It's actually a letter about Debbie's life insurance.
12:26Life insurance?
12:27I don't know, the police have put a stop on the money.
12:31That's why they think Sonia...
12:33Well, you know.
12:35So you thought you'd be getting a few quid then, did you?
12:41Where have you been?
12:42I've been texting you like mad.
12:44You know you left your back door unlocked.
12:47There we are.
12:48North-northwest of Santa Rosa.
12:50How far is that?
12:51Twenty miles.
12:52Twenty miles, eh?
12:55About three hours?
12:56Roughly.
13:03By river, here, through the jungle, it's about...
13:07Three minutes.
13:09Send this message to General Prieto.
13:13Prepare the fireworks.
13:15Ready.
13:16You've got to go.
13:17Now.
13:18Sweet, just give me my microphone, I'll be out of your hair.
13:20I ain't finished with it yet.
13:21Listen, I'd let you have it till the morning.
13:23It's just a group chatter saying that there's some Marsh aviators over at Wallasey Island
13:26and I've got to be there first thing.
13:27Stuff your Marsh atchis.
13:29Don't you dare.
13:30I'm not going to be there.
13:31I'm not going to be there.
13:32I'm not going to be there.
13:33I'm not going to be there.
13:34I'm not going to be there.
13:35I'm not going to be there.
13:36I'm not going to be there.
13:37I'm not going to be there.
13:38This is life and death.
13:40I think Rhys is the one that killed his missus.
13:42How much have you had to drink?
13:44You don't believe me.
13:45No one is going to believe me unless I get him to confess on tape.
13:48Oh, that's why you wanted my birth record, is it?
13:50Sonia is innocent!
13:53This is the only thing that is going to get her out of prison.
13:56I have been throwing vodka down Rhys' throat all night
13:58and if you hadn't barged in he would have spilled his guts by now.
14:01No, darling, this ain't good.
14:02You're going to get me caught up in some mad scheme.
14:04You're going to get me stood in front of a judge.
14:07I'll turn it in, will you?
14:08Listen, the only reason I lent you my stuff was for the good karma.
14:11This ain't good.
14:12This is terrible.
14:14Look, I'm the one putting my neck on the line here.
14:16I will give you that stupid microphone back,
14:18but please, you've just got to go away.
14:24Actually, I think it might be better if he stays.
14:29Junior?
14:34Junior?
14:37Oh!
14:40It's gone so long I had to go forage him.
14:42Not the mint-chopped chip.
14:43That's what Ian nicks when no-one else is looking.
14:45You know there'll be a full-blown inquiry tomorrow if there's none left.
14:50What took you so long?
14:51I'm sorry, I couldn't get here any sooner.
14:54I mean, it could have been worse.
14:55Ian wanted to watch Titanic.
14:56You'd have been stuck here all night.
14:59Phew!
15:01We were lucky.
15:02This nearly all blew up in our faces.
15:05Look, please stop doing that.
15:07Oh, what are you getting all let up about, Rhys?
15:09It was just am-dram.
15:11Freddie's doing a play and I'm just helping him rehearse.
15:13All that us talking.
15:14Were you just trying to trick me the whole time?
15:19Can you blame me, Rhys?
15:21We both know you're not being honest.
15:23Not about Debbie.
15:24Not about loads of stuff.
15:25I'm grieving, Mum.
15:26My partner's in prison.
15:27I'm focused on Sonia and then the campaign.
15:29Oh, picking yourself up again,
15:30acting like Mr Arnold,
15:31acting like Mr Arnold,
15:32acting like Mr Arnold,
15:34and then picking yourself up again,
15:35acting like Mr Ardumbo...
15:36Bianca...
15:37I ain't buying it, Rhys
15:38cos I don't believe a single word
15:39that comes out of your mouth.
15:40I know it wasn't all sunshine and roses
15:41for you and Debbie
15:42but, oh, that temper of yours!
15:43Brenda's got it in for me.
15:44It's...it's luck of end master.
15:45It wasn't news to me
15:46because I've seen it, remember?
15:47way you can kick off
15:48whenever you feel like it.
15:49No, I don't believe this.
15:50It's not true.
15:51Saw your face when you read that letter?
15:53Banking on life insurance, were you?
15:54This is a horrible thing...
15:55That baby would have cost you a fortune
15:57And the only way you could pay that back is if Debbie snuffed it.
16:00I mean, I call that emotive. What are you, Reece?
16:02You're being hard. No, I know what it's like to be desperate.
16:05You'll do anything, anything, and I don't even blame you for it.
16:08Stop it. I'm making my sister take the blame
16:10when she's pregnant with your baby.
16:11I mean, if that's not wicked, what is?
16:13Right, that's it. I'm calling an ambulance.
16:15No, I'll be fine in a minute.
16:16You're a good actor. I'll give you that old Meryl Streep over there.
16:19Just get her out. I need her out of my house.
16:20Your house? Right, we're done. Your house? No.
16:22If Dot knew there was a little snake like you living in here,
16:25she'd be turning in her grave.
16:27Right, we're going. You're out of here. Stop it, Freddie!
16:29I ain't doing what you tell me! I've got leggings that are older than you!
16:32Dot, I'm so sorry about all this, Reece. This ain't over.
16:34I am going to get my sister out of prison, you murderer!
16:37And I am going to tell the world what you've done!
16:39I am going to scream it until somebody believes me!
16:42Dot, can we just go now? You idiot!
16:44Five more minutes and I would have had him!
16:46I have let my sonia down! I've let her down!
16:49Come on, let's just go. Stop crying. I'll take you to Kat's.
16:52Leave me alone!
16:53Reece, I'm so sorry about all this.
17:23Hello?
17:33Hello?
17:44Hello?
17:46It's me.
17:48Stella.
17:54I'm so sorry.
17:57I didn't know where else to go.
18:03Go inside.
18:04Go inside.
18:26Oh!
18:28Where have you been?
18:30I mean, I woke up, you weren't here.
18:31I went to put the baby to bed.
18:33You weren't here?
18:34I went to put the bins out.
18:35Last time I saw you, you were snoring for England.
18:38What an exciting life we lead, innit?
18:40Still, almost 35 years after we first got married.
18:44It'd be a bit weird if we were still swinging from the chandeliers.
18:47Still, I didn't think we ever were.
18:49Maybe we'll do it again one day.
18:51Oh, and the marriage bit, I mean.
18:54I might surprise you and propose when you least expect it.
18:57Hang on, you'll turn for the dishwasher.
18:58Turn the lights out before you come up, won't you?
19:02I'm sorry about how I was before.
19:06What I asked of you.
19:11I wanted to believe in him so much.
19:16I did for so long.
19:20I believed in my husband like I believed in God.
19:28I'm sorry, Elendi.
19:32Your husband was not God.
19:38I know that, but...
19:41..perhaps he was mine.
19:46Can I even truly call myself a woman of faith?
19:52Of course you can.
19:56If...
19:58If...
20:01If I could go back...
20:04..a Christian woman would have known.
20:11Relationships are never straightforward.
20:16Not with our men.
20:19Not even with God.
20:22Stella, you are brave.
20:25And you are not to be blamed.
20:31I've just been walking.
20:35My thoughts going round and round in my head.
20:41Somehow I found myself walking here.
20:48You did the right thing.
20:55I wouldn't have refused you.
20:58Not tonight.
21:14He sent me a voice note.
21:19I've been trying to pluck up the courage to listen.
21:22I don't think I can do it on my own.
21:37I tried to get her to come here, but she just ran off to her taco van.
21:40You've done nothing wrong, all right?
21:42You should have seen her.
21:43I was making out like she let Sonia down,
21:45and the things she was saying to her,
21:47the things she said to me,
21:48I was making out like she let Sonia down,
21:50and the things she was saying to Rhys.
21:53Is she all right, do you think?
21:55No! No, she's not all right.
21:58She hasn't been all right for a long time, to be honest.
22:00She needs help. Yeah, tell me about it.
22:03What can I do?
22:04Drag her by her hair to the doctor's? Tie her to a chair?
22:07I just think if Sonia was here, then she'd sort her out.
22:09But she's not here, is she?
22:11And Bea ain't listening to anything I've got to say.
22:13She can't go on like this.
22:16There must be someone that can do something to help her.
22:29Wait.
22:33I don't think I can.
22:45You've seen the truth of a man you cared for...
22:49..and lost, all in one day.
22:54And now you're worried.
22:58What if there is more?
23:05What if he unburdens himself,
23:07and those burdens are left on you?
23:11I'm scared.
23:15I know.
23:20But what can you say that is worse than what you already know?
23:35My darling Estella...
23:38..I want you to know that I understand why you felt you had to go.
23:43These past months have been unbearable.
23:47I wish I could have relieved some of the pressure.
23:52But I simply cannot admit to allegations that aren't true.
24:00You know I am completely and wholly innocent.
24:06You don't deserve any of this.
24:08I know I should have been brave enough to say all this in person, my darling.
24:14I am innocent.
24:21Hush. Hush, hush.
24:24Hush.
24:28Hush, sister, hush.
24:38SHE CLEARS HER THROAT
24:45Hi, Ricky, it's Kat.
24:48Listen, I know it's late, but...
24:51..I don't know what else to do. We need to speak about Bianca.
25:01Oh, baby.
25:05Baby.
25:07I mean, what are you still doing up?
25:12This ain't good for you at all, you know?
25:19I thought you were right.
25:24I thought his terrible act...
25:27..was his way of admitting his guilt.
25:32But he's admitting nothing.
25:35Yeah, but the man's gone.
25:38Nothing matters now.
25:40Of course it matters.
25:43I pushed, and I pushed.
25:47And now he will never admit it.
25:55Hmm.
