00:00You need to go home and get some sleep. You've been here all night. Esther will be wondering
00:16where you are.
00:17Kerry's looking after her. I mean, I couldn't ask Lydia and Sam, could I?
00:25Sorry to disturb, folks. I am Detective Sergeant Foy. This is Detective Constable Chester.
00:30We are investigating the alleged assault on Mr. King.
00:33Nothing alleged about it. Oh, Doctor, how is he? Have you had a chance to look at his
00:39scans?
00:40He's improving, and his pain levels are under control. We need to keep him under observation,
00:46but it's looking positive.
00:47Doctor, is he well enough for me to talk to him?
00:49Not at the moment. He's still groggy, needs plenty of rest.
00:53When might he be?
00:54Depends on his recovery. I'll be back to check on him later.
00:58Thanks, Doctor.
00:59It were Belle. I called to report her. It should appear that you're arresting.
01:05Yeah, or it could have been Cain.
01:06No, I double-checked. We know her. Cain's definitely in Scotland. It has to be Belle.
01:10Tom went up to go see her, and I know Lydia's saying that he didn't show up, but I just...
01:14I don't believe it.
01:15Would that be Belle King, his wife?
01:17They're separated. She hates him because he left her. He couldn't take it anymore, and
01:21now she's going round making up all these accusations.
01:23What sort of accusations?
01:25About him abusing her, which is all lies, by the way.
01:28Course it is. He's a good lad.
01:30And you are...?
01:31Jimmy King, his uncle.
01:33And I'm Amelia, his girlfriend, which Belle was really jealous about. She wanted to punish
01:37him. Got him to go to the police about him controlling her and how she was scared of
01:41him, and that's why he went to her yesterday, to beg her not to ruin his life.
01:47And then he turns up in this state. It doesn't take a genius to work out what's happened.
01:53Well, hopefully once Mr King is awake, he'll be able to tell us exactly what happened.
02:00We've hardly slept. Keeping an eye on her, making sure she knows it wasn't her fault.
02:07He would have killed her.
02:09I've cleaned her flat as best I can.
02:12Yeah, I'll finish fixing door.
02:17Hey, Belle. How are you doing?
02:24Tired.
02:25Course you are. I'm not surprised.
02:30Amelia's finally got back to me. Tom's out of danger.
02:36What if he tells them you were out?
02:38He's going to, isn't he? I might as well just hand myself in now.
02:43You will not. Anyway, you've got an alibi now, haven't you?
02:47And he's just the bitter ex telling lies about you.
02:51So we just need to get our story straight.
02:53We're not going to let him ruin the rest of your life.
03:00Oh, you all right? Hi, mate.
03:04Here, is Amy OK with you moving in?
03:07Oh, yes, she understands. I'm going to miss her, but it's only until Cain gets back.
03:11Well, make sure you don't let her out of your sight.
03:15Oh, and you need to keep an eye on Isaac today as well.
03:18Is he in school?
03:19Well, no. He's a little bit sniffly, so Moira insisted on keeping him off.
03:24She was never like that when I was little.
03:26My leg could have been hanging on by a thread and she still wouldn't have made me walk to school.
03:30What are you two up to?
03:32Nothing.
03:33I'm just going to take my stuff up to my room.
03:35Well, you don't have to. I don't need babysitting.
03:38Well, that's not why I'm here, Mum.
03:40Well, it better not be.
03:42My anti-seizure drugs are working. I haven't had one in ages.
03:46That's great, Mum, but, um, no, I need a break from all the Amelia drama.
03:50Her and Amy keep arguing about Tom. I just want to stay out of the way, so...
03:53Can I move in for a bit, please?
03:55As long as that's all it is?
03:57Yeah.
03:58Well, go on, then. It'll be nice to have you here.
04:05Why don't you try and go and get some sleep? I can't close my eyes.
04:11You didn't do anything. You were out walking with me, remember?
04:14Hello.
04:16Would one of you folks be Belle King?
04:19I am.
04:20Oh, this is D.C. Chester. I'm D.S. Foy.
04:25I wondered if we could have a word with you about your husband's injuries.
04:29We heard he was on the mend. We're all very relieved. We're very fond of him.
04:34Did you meet with him here yesterday?
04:36No.
04:37I heard he came over to discuss your marriage.
04:40He might have planned to, but he never arrived.
04:43So you didn't meet him yesterday to discuss the allegations that you made about him?
04:47No.
04:50Did you argue?
04:53No.
04:54She's just told you she didn't meet him.
04:57Your husband's a victim of a very serious assault.
05:00Now, I've been led to believe that you were upset about him leaving you.
05:05Well, then it seems you've been misled.
05:07Why don't we all go inside? Have a nice cup of tea, eh?
05:14Can we go play Lego in my room?
05:16Oh, not right now, mate. We've just got our butties.
05:19After then, can we?
05:21Er, wouldn't you rather stay down here with Mum?
05:23No.
05:24You can go. It's only upstairs.
05:26Nah, Mum, we're fine as we are.
05:29Why are you back already?
05:31Thirsty.
05:32I'm also starving. Can you make me one of them?
05:35But you're supposed to be fixing the fence.
05:37I will do it. I had to go to the garage.
05:40I knew I couldn't trust you.
05:42Moira, I'm juggling two jobs to try and take the pressure off you.
05:46The least you can do is feed me.
05:47Feed yourself.
05:49Fine.
05:50Aww, Isaac. That is so good.
05:54It's minty. I miss him.
05:56Aww, I know you do, sweetheart.
06:00Hey, how about we go and take a look at some sheep this afternoon?
06:04Mum, he's supposed to be off set.
06:05Yeah, well, the fresh air will do him good.
06:07I want a lamb of my own.
06:09Not sure that that's a very good idea, mate.
06:12Why not?
06:13Because he gets too attached. You said so yourself.
06:16Oh, maybe I was wrong.
06:17Maybe Isaac should have a little flock of his own.
06:19How many can I have?
06:21Ooh, I don't know.
06:23But you know Bernard's farm down the road? He is selling some.
06:26But they're not lambs. They're full-size sheep.
06:29And you won't kill them?
06:30No, I won't kill them.
06:31Guys, we already have sheep. We can't buy any more.
06:34But Mum promised.
06:35I know she promised, mate, but she's a little bit impulsive right now.
06:40It's a symptom of you and me, won't it?
06:42No, it's not. It's about me doing something nice for my son.
06:45Maybe so, but it's not happening.
06:47I mean it, Moira. It's too much.
06:51We went for a walk, me and Charity.
06:54I always like to get my 10,000 steps in,
06:56so I dragged Bella along for the company.
06:58Where did you go?
07:00The woods. We were out for a couple of hours.
07:03Well, that's a long walk.
07:06Did you have anything like a step counter, a GPS,
07:09something that might verify where you were?
07:11I mean, I don't actually count them. I'm not a fanatic.
07:15I don't have one.
07:17No problem.
07:21So, Mrs King...
07:23You can call me Belle.
07:25Belle.
07:28Would you mind telling me why you and your husband split up?
07:34There's lots of reasons.
07:37The main one being?
07:42I've been informed that you claimed he was controlling you.
07:46Is that correct?
07:52He was difficult to live with,
07:54and that's why we're not together anymore.
07:56Well, I'm sorry to hear that.
07:59Were you afraid of him?
08:02I don't want to talk about it.
08:06Belle...
08:08I really don't want to press you on this,
08:10but a man has been attacked, and I need to find out what happened.
08:15Now, did he turn up and threaten you?
08:20No.
08:23I don't know who did this, but it wasn't me.
08:26Do you know who it might have been?
08:28No.
08:30I'm trying to establish whether or not your husband has any enemies
08:33that would like to do him harm.
08:35Belle's not his enemy.
08:37Do you know anyone who is?
08:39Take your pick.
08:41He's not very popular.
08:43I thought you said you were all very fond of him.
08:46You don't miss him much, do you?
08:50This is a very serious crime.
08:54Now, if any of you know anything, anything at all,
08:58now is the best time to tell me.
09:01We don't.
09:03We're just glad he's OK.
09:08OK.
09:11OK.
09:13You've all been very helpful.
09:18As the investigation progresses,
09:21I may be back to ask a few more questions.
09:24Thank you for the tea.
09:27SAMMY SIGHS
09:39Sammy.
09:41You definitely got rid of the axe, yeah?
09:44I buried it next to Piper.
09:47Well done, love.
09:49You've been so brave.
09:57SAMMY GROANS
10:01Tom.
10:06Finally.
10:10You were out for the count.
10:13Can you remember me being here last night?
10:16I can't tell you how worried I've been.
10:20Everything... hurts.
10:24I'm not surprised.
10:28You were attacked.
10:30The police are wanting to talk to you
10:33so that they can get whoever did this.
10:38Was it Bell?
10:40They need to know who did this.
10:44Can you remember?
10:47Can you remember?
11:03Ah, there you go.
11:05Cheers, Radders.
11:08Oh. You never said you were coming back today.
11:12Well, why would I? I don't have to run things past you.
11:15How was the scrap auction?
11:17Fine.
11:18All right, we're in that mood, are we?
11:20Right, I'm just going to grab us some coffees.
11:23What are you doing with them?
11:25I'm the new paramedic practitioner at the surgery.
11:27Oh, sorry, did I forget to run it past you?
11:30Are you, um... busy tonight?
11:33Why?
11:35Just thought you might want to come to mine, have a few beers.
11:38Or you could come to the van.
11:40What?
11:42I've just been away for a few days, I want me own bed.
11:44And yes, I know how sad that sounds, yeah, but I don't care.
11:47Just come to the flat.
11:49Fine.
11:51I can't promise you a good night's sleep.
11:54Well, it's a good job you found Tom when you did,
11:57otherwise he might not have survived.
11:59I just did what I could.
12:01Ah, Nicola and Jimmy are grateful.
12:04Well, we all are.
12:06I'll get your coffees.
12:08So, uh, you and Aaron seem to be getting along rather well.
12:11Rather well?
12:13Yeah, I suppose.
12:15Is it serious?
12:17We'll see how it goes.
12:19Do you want it to be?
12:21I'd rather not be having this conversation with my boss.
12:23Is Nicola around?
12:25Not at the moment.
12:27I just wondered if she knew how Tom was getting on.
12:29Oh, well, I've just got a text from her.
12:31Tom is awake.
12:33Great. Right, well, let's get back to hospital, then.
12:35Yeah, wait, I wouldn't do that if I were you.
12:38The police are waiting to interview him.
12:41Yeah, well, they'll be able to tell him it were Belle.
12:43Sorry, what was Belle?
12:45She tried to kill Tom.
12:47I can't believe that.
12:49She's been making his life a living hell.
12:51And now he's awake,
12:53he'll be able to tell the police everything.
12:57Mum?
13:03Dan with the fans.
13:05Hello?
13:07Is Mum outside?
13:09No.
13:10I just took Isaac up to his room.
13:12I was only gone a couple of minutes.
13:13Come back downstairs, she's gone.
13:15How could you be so stupid?
13:16Well, it's not my fault.
13:17She could have a seizure, Matty.
13:18She said the drugs are working.
13:19For how long?
13:20She could get worse while she waits for an operation.
13:22Wait with Isaac. I need to go and find her.
13:28There's your tea.
13:31It must have been horrendous.
13:33It was.
13:34Whoever did it could have still been there
13:36and you ran into danger without a second thought.
13:38I mean, I didn't see anyone.
13:40You're a hero.
13:42He certainly is.
13:43I should be getting back.
13:45You said it was your lunch hour.
13:46Yeah, I just need to prepare for appointments.
13:48Such dedication.
13:50I wanted Charles to be a doctor,
13:52but he went into banking,
13:54which was a great disappointment.
13:56I mean, he's a vicar.
13:57He must be very proud.
13:58I thought you'd never get here.
14:00Is it?
14:01You said you were organising a meeting.
14:03Dr Kavanagh is in charge of the allotment
14:06and his veg will be taking pride of place at the Harvest Festival.
14:10I don't know about that.
14:11I should really be going.
14:13If you must.
14:15Can I get you anything?
14:17Do you know if Laurel's come in?
14:19She had a lot of ideas.
14:20Bad ones.
14:21Yeah, Laurel was in earlier.
14:22She said she hasn't got time to help with the Harvest Festival anymore.
14:26What about the disco?
14:27Is she still in charge of that?
14:29I've no idea.
14:30But I do know that she's not going to serve on the parish council anymore.
14:34She wanted Nicola to stand in for her,
14:36as if she didn't have enough on her plate.
14:38She really doesn't have to.
14:40Don't worry, Charles.
14:42I can take Laurel's place.
14:48You were found bleeding profusely
14:51from a wound in your back.
14:53Do you remember how you got that?
14:56OK.
14:58Maybe just talk me through events leading up to that point.
15:01Where you were.
15:02Who you saw.
15:05I think...
15:09I think I was supposed to meet someone.
15:13Bill.
15:15Please just allow him to answer for himself, sir.
15:17Come on, Tommy, you don't have to go for her.
15:19I think it might be better if I just talked to your nephew without you here, sir.
15:22Sorry.
15:24I won't say another word.
15:25I just don't want her getting away with it.
15:27I remember walking.
15:30Like I was going somewhere important.
15:35But then...
15:37I don't know.
15:39Try to remember where you were going.
15:41Or if you got there.
15:43I'm trying, but it's blank.
15:46I'm sorry, I'm just...
15:47I'm in so much pain, I can't think.
15:49Do you want me to get a nurse?
15:50OK.
15:51Look, we'll leave you in peace.
15:53But I will pop back tomorrow.
15:55Hopefully I will have remembered by then.
15:57I'm sorry for wasting your time.
15:59Not at all.
16:09Well, we need more people out looking for her, Mattie.
16:13Oh, scrap that, she's here.
16:15I'll talk to you later.
16:16Moira.
16:18What in God's name are you doing?
16:19Mattie and I are trying our best to keep you safe.
16:21Oh, so he is here to babysit me.
16:23I knew it.
16:24It's not that.
16:25You're not supposed to be out on your own.
16:27What were you doing?
16:28Went to see Bernard.
16:30I told you you weren't to get any more sheep.
16:32It's for Isaac.
16:34Right, well, I'm cancelling the order.
16:36I'll explain that you're not yourself.
16:38You'd better not.
16:39Yes, I will, Moira.
16:41You're all over the place.
16:42Shut up.
16:44I am sick of you treating me like a child.
16:46Just back off, Mackenzie.
16:49I was on my way to see you.
16:51How are you?
16:52Been to Leeds lately.
16:54Was that suddenly legal?
16:56A load of smart watches have been stolen from a warehouse there.
16:59Wow.
17:00Non-stop excitement for you, isn't it?
17:02Your car was caught speeding away from the exact location at the time of the robbery.
17:07Is that right?
17:09Crack open your boot.
17:12Unless you've got something to hide.
17:16Everything all right?
17:18Yeah.
17:19All good.
17:21Are they keeping an eye on you?
17:23Lucky me.
17:26What was that about?
17:28It's nothing.
17:29Just police harassment.
17:31You done for the day?
17:33Not yet.
17:35That's a shame.
17:38I've got to get back to work.
17:41Not yet.
17:42That's a shame.
17:51Hey.
17:52You need to go and pack your bags.
17:54What?
17:55I can't have you and Mackenzie, like, breathing down my neck all day.
17:59Mum, I've been worried about you.
18:01You need to stop fussing.
18:04Isaac.
18:06I've got you a grown-up minty.
18:08Well, a flock of minties.
18:10Can I go see them?
18:12No, not yet.
18:13They're not here.
18:14But Bernard's delivering them later.
18:16Oh, so that's where you went.
18:17Don't you start.
18:18I've heard it all from him.
18:20Telling me I'm not on my right mind.
18:22That's not what I said.
18:24Well, it sounded a lot like it.
18:26You know, I can take care of myself.
18:27I've been doing it long enough.
18:29Not with a brain tumour.
18:31Can you take him upstairs with me, please?
18:33Yeah, of course.
18:34Come on, mate, shall we go and play with that Lego?
18:35Come on.
18:39Come on.
18:45Look, you think I don't know that I'm not right?
18:48I am living with this.
18:49I know how bad it is.
18:51I don't need you to point it out all of the time.
18:54I'm sorry.
18:56I'm sorry for treating you like a kid.
18:58It's only cos I'm...
19:00It's only cos I'm worried about you.
19:02I know.
19:04And I know buying the sheet was a bad idea,
19:07but I just wanted to make Isaac happy.
19:10And you trying to stop me, it just wound me up.
19:13So I had to do it to prove a point.
19:16I just don't need you trying to control my life.
19:19That's not what I'm doing.
19:22I'm...
19:25I'm just trying to protect you.
19:28I just... I hate this.
19:30I mean, kept prisoner.
19:32Losing every bit of my independence.
19:35Well, listen.
19:37It's only till after the op and then you get your freedom back.
19:42I appreciate you looking out for me, but...
19:45I don't need you here keeping guard.
19:48You've been attacked and nobody's been arrested.
19:51What if they come back here?
19:53I think I'll be safe.
19:55OK.
19:58Just a phone call away if you need me.
20:02Thank you, Jimmy.
20:05Don't know what I'd do without you.
20:27PHONE RINGS
20:36PHONE RINGS
20:44Val?
20:47Don't I even get a hello?
20:52After what you did to me?
20:57You can't just ignore me.
21:00I want to see you.
21:03Come and visit me.
21:05By one o'clock tomorrow, don't tell...
21:08anyone.
21:11Or I'll tell the police everything.
