Episode 5
1 - Your kid lost me a lot of wedge.
- It's for our flat.
We have to keep that safe, don't we? Stop! Police! Mummy?! It's OK, baby.
I love you.
Can you tell me what's happening to his mother? My concern is with getting Mason into foster care.
We've found a placement for him.
You'd just chuck it away - 18 years of marriage? You call two hours a week a marriage? Give us another chance.
Gavin?! 'He's had a little accident.
' It's my fault, you know, why he's here.
He got into this wrong crowd and I found a gun.
My brief says that without the gun they can't do anything.
I know where his gun is.
Hold the line! Hi, Gemma.
You don't have to worry about the business.
With your statement, we can build a strong case.
Link the murder with what you saw last week.
Could put Andy away for a long time.
I closed my eyes Drew back the curtain To see for certain What I thought I knew Far, far away Someone was weeping And the world was sleeping Any dream will do I wore my coat With golden lining Bright colours shining Wonderful and new I'll sort it out.
I've got to get this.
David, it's me.
Gemma Hang on.
See you tonight, love.
Can I call you back? Andy's here.
At work.
He must know what I've done.
He's been released.
What? Why? He's supposed to be locked up! All you have to do is pretend everything is normal.
OK.
Andy, sorry to keep you waiting.
Is everything OK? Look, I need you to pass on a message.
I already called you at home, but I didn't get it.
I called your mobile too.
When are you next speaking to Steve? He has to ring me.
I know that.
When's he next going to call you? I speak to him in the evenings.
You OK, Gemma? Is everything all right? Yeah.
Fine.
When you speak to him, tell him to call me.
What is it? Just a bit of trouble with the business.
Something's happened, so just make sure you pass on the message, yeah? I'll tell him.
Can I get a tea, please? Thank you.
Andy's been released on police bail.
I'm sorry.
They had insufficient evidence to charge him.
What about my statement and the ID parade? You told me he were going to be locked up.
I said it would be a big step in helping us, and it has been, but it's not enough.
And these are huge charges.
Human trafficking, false imprisonment, assault.
Yeah, you told me I'd done the hard part.
I never said it would be smooth.
You lied to me.
Gemma, I'm sorry that this hasn't been straightforward for you.
But I need you to trust me to do my job.
You you just concentrate on looking after yourself and Baby.
Is your back hurting yet? Yeah.
Swollen feet? Insomnia.
We will get Andy.
And we've got a strong case against Steve.
We've just got the forensics back so now I'm legally obliged to serve Steve with the new evidence and tell him that we found the gun.
You can't do that.
If you tell him that, he'll know that I told you where the gun were.
He won't.
I've got that covered.
Set up a decoy crime scene.
Just watch the news tonight.
And in the meantime, don't let him suspect.
Stick to your routine, keep up your visits.
Back to normal.
Is that ham? It's all I've got.
Take it or leave it.
I told you I don't eat anything that had a mother.
Shall I eat it? Listen, before you go Family day Friday.
Don't go making any plans.
Five hours of Cluedo and face painting.
Whoopee shit! Don't be like that - your dad's really looking forward to it.
I bet.
I told you I was going to meet Shelley after school Friday.
I don't care what you've said or what you've planned.
It's one day every three months to spend together as a family.
Is that too much to ask? See ya.
Bye, Grandad.
Yeah.
Ta-ra.
From Paul, is it? What? That envelope you've just thrown in the bin cos you thought I wasn't looking.
Call MI5.
They're missing an agent.
18 years.
You're still a good-looking woman, Frannie.
You know that? Still? Like your mother.
She aged well.
Strong bones.
God, you make me sound like a horse! And you've got a few good races left in you yet.
But not if you waste them waiting around for him.
Oh, Dad, don't.
What about Vinnie over the road? Very lonely since his wife went.
Vinnie? The one with the lazy eye? Got his own car.
Will, I need Friday off.
Why? It's family day at the prison.
Family day? Yeah, you get longer visits and different rules apply.
You get to s Steve's expecting me.
I need to go.
Gemma, look, I am not trying to be unreasonable but the favours seem to be going in one direction.
Constantly AWOL, you're bringing strange men into the school.
I didn't bring him.
He just came.
Look.
If you're serious about making this work then, you know, we need flexibility on all sides.
Please, Will.
Please.
Please what? I'm married.
To a murderer.
Louisa Marie Bell, you have been charged with possession of a class A drug with intent domestic situation, this court has decided to grant you conditional bail condition of that bail is that you do not return to your flat, 4A instead reside at 23 Northleas Road, Sheffield, S10.
Goodness! You look Come in.
Can I get you a cup of tea? Or a lie down? You can use the spare room.
It's just that I want Mason.
My boy.
I want him back.
Is that the worst thing about him being inside? The constant supply of crap art? I can't remember you making much of a fuss on your wedding anniversary.
Every year I bought your mum flowers from the garage, card from the corner shop.
She knew how I felt about her.
Hello? It's for you.
Rolf Harris.
Hiya.
What do you think? The card.
Do you understand it? I understand you're no Leonardo.
I'm talking about inside - the map.
Visits hall.
You see those little squares? That's where officers sit.
And the dots.
That's the route.
What are you talking about? We're going to do it.
We're going have sex.
You what? I've been planning it for days.
We can do it.
On family day.
Oh! How was your bath? Was there enough hot water? I can put on the immersion.
Yeah, yeah, it were fine, thanks.
I was going to make a shepherd's pie but realised I hadn't got any lamb in the freezer so I'm using beef, which isn't really Harriet, I want to explain.
Oh, no need, really.
I just I want you to understand why I did what I did.
I'm I'm not a drug dealer.
The only reason Look, really, Lou, you don't have to.
But I'd like to.
Honestly, Lou, let's look to the future, eh? I mean, "least said, soonest mended".
Isn't that what they say? Thanks anyway, for letting me stay.
Be nice to have the company.
Without Gavin, I rattle around like a pea in a tin.
We have a lot in common, don't we? Both without our boys.
Sorry, I didn't Before I got sent down how did we used to make up after a row? In bed.
Or on t'floor, or in t'car.
Or up against t'garage wall.
Yeah, but what if we get caught? I mean, you'll get put on a charge and I'll have less visits.
We won't get caught.
Even if we do, it'll just be slap on t'wrist.
This is what we need, Frannie.
To fix things.
I'm old and I'm not what I was.
You are to me.
I want to hold you.
I want to feel every part of you.
Right.
Change of plan.
Family day - you don't have to go.
Result! Will Dad be all right about that? I'll find a way to make it up to him.
Nice! Hiya.
I'm here from the court.
Louisa Bell? I'm here to fit your tag.
There you go.
Waterproof up to five metres so no need to pack in your snorkelling.
This will notify the monitoring agencies if she leaves the house during curfew hours.
Right.
7pm till 7 in the morning.
Cost pence to run, and at the end of the tagging period you can claim for reimbursements.
Oh, that's very reasonable.
Thank you.
Would you like a biscuit? I'd love a biscuit.
Thank you very much.
So, um, does it work as a phone as well? No, if you just leave it as it is, it will just look after itself.
This is very nice.
Thanks.
It's all right, I'll get that.
Better get this.
Hiya! You all right? Yeah, yeah, all right.
What you been up to? Nothing.
Usual.
You? I had my pre-release workshop bollocks.
Oh! Hey, put Mase on.
Got a joke for him.
He's not here.
He's having tea at Kyle's.
Lou! Lou! It's flashing.
Who's that? Er Nobody.
Just kids.
Lou! Chasing a dog.
Listen, I've got to go.
What? You're going? I've got to pick Mason up.
Kyle's going over his dad's, so Lou! I can't be late.
Yeah.
'Lou!' All right.
'Bye, then.
' All right, bye.
Love you, yeah? What you doing screaming at me?! It was flashing.
The monitoring unit.
That was Sean.
I thought it was going to go off.
I don't want Sean to know, all right? I'm sorry.
It's your curfew.
You know, I'm partly responsible for you.
He can't know what I've done and where I am, and you stood there screaming at me! It's not my fault.
I never said it were! You're being very unreasonable.
You know, while you're in this house Oh, for God's sake, Harriet! Fine.
There.
You know, you did this.
You sold drugs - you chose to do it.
I just hope you think it was worth it.
'A 52-year-old man who was in the back of the van died in the collision.
'A female passenger who was 69 'suffered serious chest injuries.
'In other news, Yorkshire Police were investigating today 'after a man's body was found at Thornbury Moor.
'The area was sealed off to allow officers to examine the scene.
'This evening a police spokesman said the death is being treated as suspicious.
' The purpose of this interview today is to disclose to you further evidence in this case.
This afternoon on Thornbury Moor, while examining an unrelated crime scene, we found a gun which has been identified as the murder weapon.
It's been forensically examined.
Can you give me any reason why there might be evidence to connect you to this gun? Any reason for finding your DNA on the gun? Well, can I explain to you that the weapon takes 9mm bullets? Have you ever handled 9mm bullets, Steve? Or can you explain to me why the bullets inside the chamber are covered in your fingerprints? No comment.
Hiya, it's Gemma and Steve.
Please leave a message and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.
Thanks! 'Gem it's me.
'You there? 'Gem, pick up.
'Pick up, Gem.
'Something's happened.
Someone 'Jesus! Please! 'Gemma, I need you.
' Harriet? It's OK.
I wasn't asleep.
Are you all right? I can't sleep.
Do you need another blanket or warm milk, or anything? What if I don't get him back? Oh, come on, now.
You will.
But when? I can't wait for them to make their mind up.
I'm going to prison.
Come here.
Are there any relatives that could help? The social worker at the police station said if there was any immediate family There's nobody.
I don't have anyone.
Well I asked if I could help before, but maybe I could try again.
Would you like that? Would you WANT me to help? Yeah.
'Andy.
' Something's happened.
You have to help me.
What are you talking about? Police have been in, man.
To interview me.
They say they've found a gun.
They're saying they can link me to it.
No, no, this is Hang on.
There's something not right here.
What do you mean? They've been sniffing round the yard.
They dragged me in.
What? Wait, wait They arrested you? 'Yeah, but I'm out on bail.
' Someone's been talking.
Pilates.
Increases your core strength.
If you say so.
I used to like that Jane Fonda myself.
Hanoi Jane.
Yeah, well, the world of exercise has moved on since then, Dad.
More's the pity.
'Ey up, here comes Bela Lugosi.
What's that all over your face? Have you been helping yourself to my eyeliner? No.
Property is theft, eh, Lauren? Where the heck are you going to? Saskia's dad's got a corporate box at the rugby.
I thought you were doing revision.
I will, tonight.
I mean tomorrow.

'Can you come over?' THUD! Yes.
No, no, absolutely.
Well, we're here all day today and then to Yes.
Yes, absolutely.
Look forward to seeing you.
Yeah, yeah, bye.
Well, she said they'd consider me as a temporary carer while the investigation's ongoing.
She asked me if anyone else lived here and how long I've known you.
She said they might want to run a CRB check.
It's certain procedures before the case conference tomorrow.
Oh, yes, and she said they'd be over to do a risk assessment.
Do you know what that is, exactly? Perhaps I should clean the oven.
What's happened? What's going on? Is it the baby? Then what is it? No, I'm sorry.
Please? Just for a few days.
No, I can't have you staying at mine if you won't tell me what's wrong.
I can't.
The police said I weren't allowed.
You talked to the police? I told them what I saw.
Gemma! Told them everything.
People locked up, Andy, the man.
Told them where I threw the gun.
Jesus! You don't do that, you don't You don't talk to the police.
You've put yourself in danger.
You've put ME in danger.
If you didn't like what you saw look away.
What?! Like you? And what's that supposed to mean? I wanted to put a stop to it.
I wanted to fix it all.
This isn't a game where you run from the bad prince to the good cop.
I can't sleep.
I can't even close my eyes without the noise of his head when they hit him.
You think that's all right? You think you can see something like that and walk away? This isn't my world.
If you think this is all right then it's you.
There's something wrong with YOU.
You wanted a fairy tale, don't marry a gangster.
I didn't know.
Course you knew! Like we all know.
No.
No, I didn't.
Maybe that makes me the stupid little wife who doesn't know her husband, who he is, what he does.
But I know now.
And I did something about it.
Good.
Then you live with it.
Oh, for Francesca! Don't come crying to me because you can't cope with it.
You have consigned yourself to 20 years of shit.
Of lonely nights, of a kid who doesn't know its dad.
YOU did this and you didn't need to.
Most of us don't have that choice.
Do you smoke? No.
No, never.
Well, actually, yes.
I did try once when I was 15.
My friend Lesley and I, we were But no, that was a long time ago, so so no.
I do have the occasional sherry.
Oh! Is your dog the only pet in the household? Basil, yes.
Yes, he is.
How is Basil with children? How would he cope with the addition of a young child? Oh, he'd be fine.
Absolutely f Basil, stop it! Stop! He has been treated.
Sorry? The scratching.
In case you were wondering.
I do take pest control very seriously.
Right.
How's it going? Yes, yes, all right, I think.
Do you think this is suitable? I mean, it's not, you know, Fairtrade.
You what? Does it matter? It's just she's a social worker.
I don't think it matters what you give her.
How's she going to know? No, you're right.
Course it doesn't.
Course it doesn't matter.
It'll be fine.
It'll be OK, Lou, I promise.
Hope she likes custard creams.
- All right.
- Come on in, ladies, here we go.
Looking lovely today! How am I going to tell him? You just do.
Get a grip and head up.
You go on.
I I just need a minute to myself.
I tried ringing the other night.
You didn't pick up.
I were in bed.
Baby's been kicking.
Keeping me up.
You you sounded upset.
I've got some bad news.
Or perhaps you already know.
What? The police have been in to see me.
They've They've found the gun.
D'you understand what this means, Gem? It means I'll not be there for the birth or be here for the baby and I won't be here for you.
I'm going to be stuck here for a long time.
And you're going to be on your own.
Come here, you.
You smell nice.
I stopped using that deodorant since you said you didn't like it.
It's better.
Smells like YOU.
Frannie, don't! Don't! No! Hmm.
Would you prefer I used a little sausage? You're a bitch! You love it! The marvellous thing about these cakes is they've been made by the lads on our catering course.
Gavin, I do believe that's your Victoria Sponge.
Mum, would you like a slice? Yes, I would.
Very much.
Like your blouse, by the way.
Oh! Very jolly.
Oh! Thank you.
Mum Mum.
This is delicious.
I didn't know you were doing catering.
Well, I mean it's not just a cake.
Well, it is a cake! But Can I show you something? All right.
This is for SDP.
It's about getting clean.
And it's helped.
It's really helped me clear my head.
That's That's great, Gavin.
And I started TSP.
What's that? Thinking Skills Programme, which helps me to make better choices, to look at the mistakes I've made and how to change.
Really? That's That's very, very positive.
I'm seeing it, Mum.
Hm? For the first time.
I'm seeing where we went wrong.
Where's Mason? Lou? Lou, what's going on? Where is me boy? I just I don't understand how how it happened.
Where did you dump the gun? I told you - Thornbury Moor.
Was someone watching you? No.
Following you, then? No! No-one.
Steve, we've just been really unlucky.
The police found it when they were investigating another murder.
It's not bloody coincidence! Do you not understand? That's what the police are wanting me to think.
They've been sniffing round Andy as well.
Andy? I'm sorry.
What?! I'm sorry if this is my fault, but Steve, please can we stop talking about it? I don't feel very well.
What? Gem, what aren't you telling me? He's behind you! Prison? You're going to prison? I don't understand.
It were It were crack and heroin.
What?! Lou I told you to stop dealing, so, what, you upped your game, did you? It wasn't like that.
Tapper made me.
Mason He got Mason to do a run and he lost it.
Mason lost the drugs.
Mason?! You got Mase to deliver drugs?! I didn't.
It were Tapper.
You promised me you'd stop! You promised me you'd sit tight, do nothing, until I was out.
That was the point, wasn't it? I do YOUR time and you hold it together.
You be a mum to our son.
I'm out in a week! What've you done?! - What are they, everyone? - Sausages! - Pardon?! - Sausages! This was a daft idea.
It's never going to work.
That screw's been standing in front of that door for ages.
Patience! We've got to pick our moment.
I'm not in the mood any more, anyway.
Frannie! Captivating yet capricious.
Don't you think you can just silver-tongue me.
How did you know what I had in mind? Come here! Come here! Hang on.
I know what you're like, Gemma.
We both do.
You can get confused.
And people, they can Well, they can put pressure on you.
They can make you do things that you don't want to do.
Nobody here's making me do anything.
Come here a second.
Steve What aren't you telling me? Talk to me, Gemma.
Stop! I can see it in your face, Gemma.
What are you hiding?! You OK? Yeah, she's fine.
I'm sorry.
What are you sorry for, Gem, eh? Just tell me.
I'm bleeding.
Doctor said it probably wasn't a miscarriage.
But I should stay at home and rest.
Jesus, Gem.
Why didn't you say something?! I didn't want you to know.
I didn't want you to worry.
Thought I could pretend everything was normal.
You daft thing! You see, that girl can't lie.
Go and get her a drink of water.
Is any of that true? You've not told him? No.
Good.
You bloody idiot! Not much longer and then you can go.
You can do it.
They say you just You just kind of get stuck.
And it sort of makes sense, what they're teaching us.
How you've got to change your patterns of behaviour.
A lot of it's about parenting.
They say you've got to be brave.
Look to your past.
Gemma, please.
I am so sorry.
I'm like an animal.
Treating you like this when you're It's just this place, Gem.
It's making me paranoid about everyone and everything.
It's OK.
Steve, it'll be all right.
I know it will be.
I know they've got the gun but they don't know it was mine.
They don't know I fired it and they don't know I killed him.
Look I'm a family man.
I've got a business, I've got a baby on the way.
Ask any jury.
I know.
I know.
I know.
It's all right.
None of this matters.
It's just us two, Gem, yeah? The two of us.
Our baby.
I've got to go.
Don't care.
I don't want to see you till you get Mason back.
That's what I'm trying to do.
I'm going to case conference now, and Harriet's taking me.
I'm going to try and get him back.
Yeah, well, you do.
You say whatever it takes, whatever social services ask.
All right? You know what kills me? It's always about you, what YOU want.
How you just push me away, push everyone.
You're stuck in there.
With your shouting and your fighting and your bullshit fantasies that'll never happen.
You got us into this.
I promise You'd better do more than that.
Do not hurt this family any more than you already have.
Go.
I did tell you I'd have to leave a little early today, didn't I? Where are you going? Well, it's a strange thing, really, but but I've got a legal obligation, I suppose.
I'm applying to become a foster carer to Lou and Sean's little boy.
What? What are you talking about? This is family day.
Yes, I-I know that.
OUR family.
You're more interested in flirting with the chaplain or looking after someone else's son.
Oh, Gavin.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry if you feel that way.
Then stay.
I can't.
I can't.
Not today.
I'll come back next visit.
Gavin, please.
No.
I know, I know I haven't always been the best mum, but it's just it's It's so hard.
You know, everyone changes, Mum.
Grows up.
But you You made me feel like a freak.
And you won't even talk about it.
Much better to talk about cats and cakes.
You shut yourself up in that house for years and you let me slip away.
Least said, soonest mended? For who, Mum? Eh? For who? You let me smoke more and more and I kept thinking, "This is the night she'll come through that door.
"She'll come in, and say, 'Enough!'" You never did.
You never stopped me.
Harriet.
Yeah, I know.
We need to go.
Mason's case conference.
We're going to be late.
I know, I know.
Harriet.
Yeah, I know.
Gavin, I want I'm sorry.
Hi, Gavin.
Oh! He's left his cake! D'you want another drink? No.
I'm going to the toilet too many times as it is anyway.
Yeah.
It says that in the pregnancy book.
Common at this stage.
What? I love that you actually read it.
Of course I read it.
Mind you, when I say "read", it's more actually looking at the pictures.
Shut up! At least I'm making an effort.
Yeah.
Yeah, you are.
Fran.
Frannie Look at me.
No, I'm not going to look at you.
Why? Cos you're going to make me try and change my mind.
I told you I'm not doing this.
And I'm not taking no for an answer.
It's now or never.
Well, it's going to be never.
It's going to be now.
Sit down and stop it.
I can't stop.
Paul! Man and wife, Frannie.
Basic human right.
You're insane.
Yeah Yeah, and you love it.
You love me.
Open the door! Open this door now! Oh, my God! Frannie, I love you.
I'm sorry it was a bit quick.
Usain Bolt.
Speed, not style.
You complaining? Gold medal.
You think that'll be us in a few years' time? Dunno.
Time's up, ladies and gentlemen.
I don't know how this is going to end, Gem.
I don't even want to think about it.
What do we do, eh? We do this.
Do you want me to come in with you? No.
It'll be all right.
Biggest thing I ever done.
I can't I can't mess it up.
And you won't.
I wish I were more like you.
Oh! Lou! No.
Look at you.
You even look like a mum.
I haven't done a very good job, have I? Wash room service.
Here's the chef.
What's up? Mummy not like your cake, eh? It's not your fault, Harriet.
You know, Lou, I'm not a very religious person.
It's it's just sometimes when I'm facing a challenge, you know, difficult situation and I feel a bit I feel a bit lonely, it's this, it just helps.
It makes me feel brave.
What? He who would valiant be 'Gainst all disaster Let him in constancy follow the master Stop! No discouragement Shall make him once relent His first avowed intent To be a pilgrim Who he Give me your arm.
No! No! Give me your arm, Gavin! Gavin, you've got to calm down.
Get his head.
Hello, social services reception.
Yes.
I don't have anything left Good afternoon, everyone.
I'd like to thank you all for coming here at such short notice.
We are here to share our concern about the care of Mason Bell and to discuss any safeguarding issues that arise.
Shall we start with outlining the case that first brought Mason to your attention? During an ongoing investigation, Louisa Marie Bell was found in possession of a class A drug and charged with intent to supply.
Our surveillance indicates that she routinely left her son unattended while she pursued her drug dealing, a very serious case of child neglect.
Miss Bell, if you'd like to come in.
Miss Bell, are you clear about the purpose of this case conference? We need to be sure that you fully appreciate that there are very serious concerns about Mason's care, and to see if we can find a way forward for you and Mason that will guarantee Mason's safety.
I'm sorry.
I am.
Sorry I left him alone.
Sorry I done what I did.
I will never, ever do it again.
I know you need to investigate me and everything.
And that you're considering Harriet as a temporary carer and I think that's brilliant because I think she's a brilliant person.
And I know she looks a bit mad and everything but she's a proper mum.
Respectable and and safe.
She even she even shopped her own son in t'police.
That's what kind of person that she is.
What kind of person does that? Are you going to stay calm now? We're going to release the locks, all right? I know I messed up.
I need to take your clothing and give you some more.
You understand? And I let my boy down.
But if you just if you just give us a second chance, I'm a good mum.
It's all I've ever wanted to be.
Stupid thing is, yeah there's a reason why I did it.
To get Mason out of that estate.
A better life.
I was trying to be a good mum.
And it all went wrong.
I'm sorry.
I am.
And I want your help.
If you could sign there and there.
Now, that's your copy of the foster care agreement.
You're now approved as Mason's temporary carer.
And I'm here to support you if you need me.
I'll be visiting you next week.
See how you're all getting on.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
What will happen to Paul? Nothing much.
Loss of privileges.
They'll probably take away his telly.
Cell confinement.
At least it gave him something to think about while he's in there.
You cold? D'you want to go home? No.
No, I like it here.
You can see everything.
Piece of history, this bench.
Me and Paul used to come up here when we were first going out and he used to try and undo my bra without me noticing and tell me stories.
What sort of stories? About this place, Sky Edge.
Sheffield gangs from way back.
I thought you'd crack today.
Tell Steve what you'd done.
I wanted to.
You're braver than you thought.
I used to think I had that kind of strength.
Staying power, but it takes more to change.
I can't do it.
D'you want to? Not enough.
You were right, what you said about me.
I do, I do turn a blind eye.
I know what Paul does.
He makes a living and I can live with it.
Doesn't make it right, though.
I'll have more fun than you.
Easier ride.
But I know I won't be going to heaven.
Andy I know who it is.
The grass.
It's Gemma.
Part of my job is to protect you.
Men like Andy have long memories.
There'll be some money coming for you.
You'll have to pick it up.
You should get out more.
You just need a bit of make-up.
Make the most of yourself.
I'm out now.
My turn next.
Stop it, Sean.
No-one likes a grass.
This is DS Hunter.
I need obs on a white female, heavily pregnant.
If she is accompanied, that person may be armed.
- It's for our flat.
We have to keep that safe, don't we? Stop! Police! Mummy?! It's OK, baby.
I love you.
Can you tell me what's happening to his mother? My concern is with getting Mason into foster care.
We've found a placement for him.
You'd just chuck it away - 18 years of marriage? You call two hours a week a marriage? Give us another chance.
Gavin?! 'He's had a little accident.
' It's my fault, you know, why he's here.
He got into this wrong crowd and I found a gun.
My brief says that without the gun they can't do anything.
I know where his gun is.
Hold the line! Hi, Gemma.
You don't have to worry about the business.
With your statement, we can build a strong case.
Link the murder with what you saw last week.
Could put Andy away for a long time.
I closed my eyes Drew back the curtain To see for certain What I thought I knew Far, far away Someone was weeping And the world was sleeping Any dream will do I wore my coat With golden lining Bright colours shining Wonderful and new I'll sort it out.
I've got to get this.
David, it's me.
Gemma Hang on.
See you tonight, love.
Can I call you back? Andy's here.
At work.
He must know what I've done.
He's been released.
What? Why? He's supposed to be locked up! All you have to do is pretend everything is normal.
OK.
Andy, sorry to keep you waiting.
Is everything OK? Look, I need you to pass on a message.
I already called you at home, but I didn't get it.
I called your mobile too.
When are you next speaking to Steve? He has to ring me.
I know that.
When's he next going to call you? I speak to him in the evenings.
You OK, Gemma? Is everything all right? Yeah.
Fine.
When you speak to him, tell him to call me.
What is it? Just a bit of trouble with the business.
Something's happened, so just make sure you pass on the message, yeah? I'll tell him.
Can I get a tea, please? Thank you.
Andy's been released on police bail.
I'm sorry.
They had insufficient evidence to charge him.
What about my statement and the ID parade? You told me he were going to be locked up.
I said it would be a big step in helping us, and it has been, but it's not enough.
And these are huge charges.
Human trafficking, false imprisonment, assault.
Yeah, you told me I'd done the hard part.
I never said it would be smooth.
You lied to me.
Gemma, I'm sorry that this hasn't been straightforward for you.
But I need you to trust me to do my job.
You you just concentrate on looking after yourself and Baby.
Is your back hurting yet? Yeah.
Swollen feet? Insomnia.
We will get Andy.
And we've got a strong case against Steve.
We've just got the forensics back so now I'm legally obliged to serve Steve with the new evidence and tell him that we found the gun.
You can't do that.
If you tell him that, he'll know that I told you where the gun were.
He won't.
I've got that covered.
Set up a decoy crime scene.
Just watch the news tonight.
And in the meantime, don't let him suspect.
Stick to your routine, keep up your visits.
Back to normal.
Is that ham? It's all I've got.
Take it or leave it.
I told you I don't eat anything that had a mother.
Shall I eat it? Listen, before you go Family day Friday.
Don't go making any plans.
Five hours of Cluedo and face painting.
Whoopee shit! Don't be like that - your dad's really looking forward to it.
I bet.
I told you I was going to meet Shelley after school Friday.
I don't care what you've said or what you've planned.
It's one day every three months to spend together as a family.
Is that too much to ask? See ya.
Bye, Grandad.
Yeah.
Ta-ra.
From Paul, is it? What? That envelope you've just thrown in the bin cos you thought I wasn't looking.
Call MI5.
They're missing an agent.
18 years.
You're still a good-looking woman, Frannie.
You know that? Still? Like your mother.
She aged well.
Strong bones.
God, you make me sound like a horse! And you've got a few good races left in you yet.
But not if you waste them waiting around for him.
Oh, Dad, don't.
What about Vinnie over the road? Very lonely since his wife went.
Vinnie? The one with the lazy eye? Got his own car.
Will, I need Friday off.
Why? It's family day at the prison.
Family day? Yeah, you get longer visits and different rules apply.
You get to s Steve's expecting me.
I need to go.
Gemma, look, I am not trying to be unreasonable but the favours seem to be going in one direction.
Constantly AWOL, you're bringing strange men into the school.
I didn't bring him.
He just came.
Look.
If you're serious about making this work then, you know, we need flexibility on all sides.
Please, Will.
Please.
Please what? I'm married.
To a murderer.
Louisa Marie Bell, you have been charged with possession of a class A drug with intent domestic situation, this court has decided to grant you conditional bail condition of that bail is that you do not return to your flat, 4A instead reside at 23 Northleas Road, Sheffield, S10.
Goodness! You look Come in.
Can I get you a cup of tea? Or a lie down? You can use the spare room.
It's just that I want Mason.
My boy.
I want him back.
Is that the worst thing about him being inside? The constant supply of crap art? I can't remember you making much of a fuss on your wedding anniversary.
Every year I bought your mum flowers from the garage, card from the corner shop.
She knew how I felt about her.
Hello? It's for you.
Rolf Harris.
Hiya.
What do you think? The card.
Do you understand it? I understand you're no Leonardo.
I'm talking about inside - the map.
Visits hall.
You see those little squares? That's where officers sit.
And the dots.
That's the route.
What are you talking about? We're going to do it.
We're going have sex.
You what? I've been planning it for days.
We can do it.
On family day.
Oh! How was your bath? Was there enough hot water? I can put on the immersion.
Yeah, yeah, it were fine, thanks.
I was going to make a shepherd's pie but realised I hadn't got any lamb in the freezer so I'm using beef, which isn't really Harriet, I want to explain.
Oh, no need, really.
I just I want you to understand why I did what I did.
I'm I'm not a drug dealer.
The only reason Look, really, Lou, you don't have to.
But I'd like to.
Honestly, Lou, let's look to the future, eh? I mean, "least said, soonest mended".
Isn't that what they say? Thanks anyway, for letting me stay.
Be nice to have the company.
Without Gavin, I rattle around like a pea in a tin.
We have a lot in common, don't we? Both without our boys.
Sorry, I didn't Before I got sent down how did we used to make up after a row? In bed.
Or on t'floor, or in t'car.
Or up against t'garage wall.
Yeah, but what if we get caught? I mean, you'll get put on a charge and I'll have less visits.
We won't get caught.
Even if we do, it'll just be slap on t'wrist.
This is what we need, Frannie.
To fix things.
I'm old and I'm not what I was.
You are to me.
I want to hold you.
I want to feel every part of you.
Right.
Change of plan.
Family day - you don't have to go.
Result! Will Dad be all right about that? I'll find a way to make it up to him.
Nice! Hiya.
I'm here from the court.
Louisa Bell? I'm here to fit your tag.
There you go.
Waterproof up to five metres so no need to pack in your snorkelling.
This will notify the monitoring agencies if she leaves the house during curfew hours.
Right.
7pm till 7 in the morning.
Cost pence to run, and at the end of the tagging period you can claim for reimbursements.
Oh, that's very reasonable.
Thank you.
Would you like a biscuit? I'd love a biscuit.
Thank you very much.
So, um, does it work as a phone as well? No, if you just leave it as it is, it will just look after itself.
This is very nice.
Thanks.
It's all right, I'll get that.
Better get this.
Hiya! You all right? Yeah, yeah, all right.
What you been up to? Nothing.
Usual.
You? I had my pre-release workshop bollocks.
Oh! Hey, put Mase on.
Got a joke for him.
He's not here.
He's having tea at Kyle's.
Lou! Lou! It's flashing.
Who's that? Er Nobody.
Just kids.
Lou! Chasing a dog.
Listen, I've got to go.
What? You're going? I've got to pick Mason up.
Kyle's going over his dad's, so Lou! I can't be late.
Yeah.
'Lou!' All right.
'Bye, then.
' All right, bye.
Love you, yeah? What you doing screaming at me?! It was flashing.
The monitoring unit.
That was Sean.
I thought it was going to go off.
I don't want Sean to know, all right? I'm sorry.
It's your curfew.
You know, I'm partly responsible for you.
He can't know what I've done and where I am, and you stood there screaming at me! It's not my fault.
I never said it were! You're being very unreasonable.
You know, while you're in this house Oh, for God's sake, Harriet! Fine.
There.
You know, you did this.
You sold drugs - you chose to do it.
I just hope you think it was worth it.
'A 52-year-old man who was in the back of the van died in the collision.
'A female passenger who was 69 'suffered serious chest injuries.
'In other news, Yorkshire Police were investigating today 'after a man's body was found at Thornbury Moor.
'The area was sealed off to allow officers to examine the scene.
'This evening a police spokesman said the death is being treated as suspicious.
' The purpose of this interview today is to disclose to you further evidence in this case.
This afternoon on Thornbury Moor, while examining an unrelated crime scene, we found a gun which has been identified as the murder weapon.
It's been forensically examined.
Can you give me any reason why there might be evidence to connect you to this gun? Any reason for finding your DNA on the gun? Well, can I explain to you that the weapon takes 9mm bullets? Have you ever handled 9mm bullets, Steve? Or can you explain to me why the bullets inside the chamber are covered in your fingerprints? No comment.
Hiya, it's Gemma and Steve.
Please leave a message and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.
Thanks! 'Gem it's me.
'You there? 'Gem, pick up.
'Pick up, Gem.
'Something's happened.
Someone 'Jesus! Please! 'Gemma, I need you.
' Harriet? It's OK.
I wasn't asleep.
Are you all right? I can't sleep.
Do you need another blanket or warm milk, or anything? What if I don't get him back? Oh, come on, now.
You will.
But when? I can't wait for them to make their mind up.
I'm going to prison.
Come here.
Are there any relatives that could help? The social worker at the police station said if there was any immediate family There's nobody.
I don't have anyone.
Well I asked if I could help before, but maybe I could try again.
Would you like that? Would you WANT me to help? Yeah.
'Andy.
' Something's happened.
You have to help me.
What are you talking about? Police have been in, man.
To interview me.
They say they've found a gun.
They're saying they can link me to it.
No, no, this is Hang on.
There's something not right here.
What do you mean? They've been sniffing round the yard.
They dragged me in.
What? Wait, wait They arrested you? 'Yeah, but I'm out on bail.
' Someone's been talking.
Pilates.
Increases your core strength.
If you say so.
I used to like that Jane Fonda myself.
Hanoi Jane.
Yeah, well, the world of exercise has moved on since then, Dad.
More's the pity.
'Ey up, here comes Bela Lugosi.
What's that all over your face? Have you been helping yourself to my eyeliner? No.
Property is theft, eh, Lauren? Where the heck are you going to? Saskia's dad's got a corporate box at the rugby.
I thought you were doing revision.
I will, tonight.
I mean tomorrow.
I'm staying at Saskia's tonight.
All right? Bye.
Right, have you got your phone? Yeah.
You'll be all right on your own? Course.
See ya.
Bye.
Bye, Grandad.
Dad.
Get off! It's quite comfy, this! Hello? It's me.
Who's me? Gemma.
Look I've got a massive favour to ask you.
'Can you come over?' THUD! Yes.
No, no, absolutely.
Well, we're here all day today and then to Yes.
Yes, absolutely.
Look forward to seeing you.
Yeah, yeah, bye.
Well, she said they'd consider me as a temporary carer while the investigation's ongoing.
She asked me if anyone else lived here and how long I've known you.
She said they might want to run a CRB check.
It's certain procedures before the case conference tomorrow.
Oh, yes, and she said they'd be over to do a risk assessment.
Do you know what that is, exactly? Perhaps I should clean the oven.
What's happened? What's going on? Is it the baby? Then what is it? No, I'm sorry.
Please? Just for a few days.
No, I can't have you staying at mine if you won't tell me what's wrong.
I can't.
The police said I weren't allowed.
You talked to the police? I told them what I saw.
Gemma! Told them everything.
People locked up, Andy, the man.
Told them where I threw the gun.
Jesus! You don't do that, you don't You don't talk to the police.
You've put yourself in danger.
You've put ME in danger.
If you didn't like what you saw look away.
What?! Like you? And what's that supposed to mean? I wanted to put a stop to it.
I wanted to fix it all.
This isn't a game where you run from the bad prince to the good cop.
I can't sleep.
I can't even close my eyes without the noise of his head when they hit him.
You think that's all right? You think you can see something like that and walk away? This isn't my world.
If you think this is all right then it's you.
There's something wrong with YOU.
You wanted a fairy tale, don't marry a gangster.
I didn't know.
Course you knew! Like we all know.
No.
No, I didn't.
Maybe that makes me the stupid little wife who doesn't know her husband, who he is, what he does.
But I know now.
And I did something about it.
Good.
Then you live with it.
Oh, for Francesca! Don't come crying to me because you can't cope with it.
You have consigned yourself to 20 years of shit.
Of lonely nights, of a kid who doesn't know its dad.
YOU did this and you didn't need to.
Most of us don't have that choice.
Do you smoke? No.
No, never.
Well, actually, yes.
I did try once when I was 15.
My friend Lesley and I, we were But no, that was a long time ago, so so no.
I do have the occasional sherry.
Oh! Is your dog the only pet in the household? Basil, yes.
Yes, he is.
How is Basil with children? How would he cope with the addition of a young child? Oh, he'd be fine.
Absolutely f Basil, stop it! Stop! He has been treated.
Sorry? The scratching.
In case you were wondering.
I do take pest control very seriously.
Right.
How's it going? Yes, yes, all right, I think.
Do you think this is suitable? I mean, it's not, you know, Fairtrade.
You what? Does it matter? It's just she's a social worker.
I don't think it matters what you give her.
How's she going to know? No, you're right.
Course it doesn't.
Course it doesn't matter.
It'll be fine.
It'll be OK, Lou, I promise.
Hope she likes custard creams.
- All right.
- Come on in, ladies, here we go.
Looking lovely today! How am I going to tell him? You just do.
Get a grip and head up.
You go on.
I I just need a minute to myself.
I tried ringing the other night.
You didn't pick up.
I were in bed.
Baby's been kicking.
Keeping me up.
You you sounded upset.
I've got some bad news.
Or perhaps you already know.
What? The police have been in to see me.
They've They've found the gun.
D'you understand what this means, Gem? It means I'll not be there for the birth or be here for the baby and I won't be here for you.
I'm going to be stuck here for a long time.
And you're going to be on your own.
Come here, you.
You smell nice.
I stopped using that deodorant since you said you didn't like it.
It's better.
Smells like YOU.
Frannie, don't! Don't! No! Hmm.
Would you prefer I used a little sausage? You're a bitch! You love it! The marvellous thing about these cakes is they've been made by the lads on our catering course.
Gavin, I do believe that's your Victoria Sponge.
Mum, would you like a slice? Yes, I would.
Very much.
Like your blouse, by the way.
Oh! Very jolly.
Oh! Thank you.
Mum Mum.
This is delicious.
I didn't know you were doing catering.
Well, I mean it's not just a cake.
Well, it is a cake! But Can I show you something? All right.
This is for SDP.
It's about getting clean.
And it's helped.
It's really helped me clear my head.
That's That's great, Gavin.
And I started TSP.
What's that? Thinking Skills Programme, which helps me to make better choices, to look at the mistakes I've made and how to change.
Really? That's That's very, very positive.
I'm seeing it, Mum.
Hm? For the first time.
I'm seeing where we went wrong.
Where's Mason? Lou? Lou, what's going on? Where is me boy? I just I don't understand how how it happened.
Where did you dump the gun? I told you - Thornbury Moor.
Was someone watching you? No.
Following you, then? No! No-one.
Steve, we've just been really unlucky.
The police found it when they were investigating another murder.
It's not bloody coincidence! Do you not understand? That's what the police are wanting me to think.
They've been sniffing round Andy as well.
Andy? I'm sorry.
What?! I'm sorry if this is my fault, but Steve, please can we stop talking about it? I don't feel very well.
What? Gem, what aren't you telling me? He's behind you! Prison? You're going to prison? I don't understand.
It were It were crack and heroin.
What?! Lou I told you to stop dealing, so, what, you upped your game, did you? It wasn't like that.
Tapper made me.
Mason He got Mason to do a run and he lost it.
Mason lost the drugs.
Mason?! You got Mase to deliver drugs?! I didn't.
It were Tapper.
You promised me you'd stop! You promised me you'd sit tight, do nothing, until I was out.
That was the point, wasn't it? I do YOUR time and you hold it together.
You be a mum to our son.
I'm out in a week! What've you done?! - What are they, everyone? - Sausages! - Pardon?! - Sausages! This was a daft idea.
It's never going to work.
That screw's been standing in front of that door for ages.
Patience! We've got to pick our moment.
I'm not in the mood any more, anyway.
Frannie! Captivating yet capricious.
Don't you think you can just silver-tongue me.
How did you know what I had in mind? Come here! Come here! Hang on.
I know what you're like, Gemma.
We both do.
You can get confused.
And people, they can Well, they can put pressure on you.
They can make you do things that you don't want to do.
Nobody here's making me do anything.
Come here a second.
Steve What aren't you telling me? Talk to me, Gemma.
Stop! I can see it in your face, Gemma.
What are you hiding?! You OK? Yeah, she's fine.
I'm sorry.
What are you sorry for, Gem, eh? Just tell me.
I'm bleeding.
Doctor said it probably wasn't a miscarriage.
But I should stay at home and rest.
Jesus, Gem.
Why didn't you say something?! I didn't want you to know.
I didn't want you to worry.
Thought I could pretend everything was normal.
You daft thing! You see, that girl can't lie.
Go and get her a drink of water.
Is any of that true? You've not told him? No.
Good.
You bloody idiot! Not much longer and then you can go.
You can do it.
They say you just You just kind of get stuck.
And it sort of makes sense, what they're teaching us.
How you've got to change your patterns of behaviour.
A lot of it's about parenting.
They say you've got to be brave.
Look to your past.
Gemma, please.
I am so sorry.
I'm like an animal.
Treating you like this when you're It's just this place, Gem.
It's making me paranoid about everyone and everything.
It's OK.
Steve, it'll be all right.
I know it will be.
I know they've got the gun but they don't know it was mine.
They don't know I fired it and they don't know I killed him.
Look I'm a family man.
I've got a business, I've got a baby on the way.
Ask any jury.
I know.
I know.
I know.
It's all right.
None of this matters.
It's just us two, Gem, yeah? The two of us.
Our baby.
I've got to go.
Don't care.
I don't want to see you till you get Mason back.
That's what I'm trying to do.
I'm going to case conference now, and Harriet's taking me.
I'm going to try and get him back.
Yeah, well, you do.
You say whatever it takes, whatever social services ask.
All right? You know what kills me? It's always about you, what YOU want.
How you just push me away, push everyone.
You're stuck in there.
With your shouting and your fighting and your bullshit fantasies that'll never happen.
You got us into this.
I promise You'd better do more than that.
Do not hurt this family any more than you already have.
Go.
I did tell you I'd have to leave a little early today, didn't I? Where are you going? Well, it's a strange thing, really, but but I've got a legal obligation, I suppose.
I'm applying to become a foster carer to Lou and Sean's little boy.
What? What are you talking about? This is family day.
Yes, I-I know that.
OUR family.
You're more interested in flirting with the chaplain or looking after someone else's son.
Oh, Gavin.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry if you feel that way.
Then stay.
I can't.
I can't.
Not today.
I'll come back next visit.
Gavin, please.
No.
I know, I know I haven't always been the best mum, but it's just it's It's so hard.
You know, everyone changes, Mum.
Grows up.
But you You made me feel like a freak.
And you won't even talk about it.
Much better to talk about cats and cakes.
You shut yourself up in that house for years and you let me slip away.
Least said, soonest mended? For who, Mum? Eh? For who? You let me smoke more and more and I kept thinking, "This is the night she'll come through that door.
"She'll come in, and say, 'Enough!'" You never did.
You never stopped me.
Harriet.
Yeah, I know.
We need to go.
Mason's case conference.
We're going to be late.
I know, I know.
Harriet.
Yeah, I know.
Gavin, I want I'm sorry.
Hi, Gavin.
Oh! He's left his cake! D'you want another drink? No.
I'm going to the toilet too many times as it is anyway.
Yeah.
It says that in the pregnancy book.
Common at this stage.
What? I love that you actually read it.
Of course I read it.
Mind you, when I say "read", it's more actually looking at the pictures.
Shut up! At least I'm making an effort.
Yeah.
Yeah, you are.
Fran.
Frannie Look at me.
No, I'm not going to look at you.
Why? Cos you're going to make me try and change my mind.
I told you I'm not doing this.
And I'm not taking no for an answer.
It's now or never.
Well, it's going to be never.
It's going to be now.
Sit down and stop it.
I can't stop.
Paul! Man and wife, Frannie.
Basic human right.
You're insane.
Yeah Yeah, and you love it.
You love me.
Open the door! Open this door now! Oh, my God! Frannie, I love you.
I'm sorry it was a bit quick.
Usain Bolt.
Speed, not style.
You complaining? Gold medal.
You think that'll be us in a few years' time? Dunno.
Time's up, ladies and gentlemen.
I don't know how this is going to end, Gem.
I don't even want to think about it.
What do we do, eh? We do this.
Do you want me to come in with you? No.
It'll be all right.
Biggest thing I ever done.
I can't I can't mess it up.
And you won't.
I wish I were more like you.
Oh! Lou! No.
Look at you.
You even look like a mum.
I haven't done a very good job, have I? Wash room service.
Here's the chef.
What's up? Mummy not like your cake, eh? It's not your fault, Harriet.
You know, Lou, I'm not a very religious person.
It's it's just sometimes when I'm facing a challenge, you know, difficult situation and I feel a bit I feel a bit lonely, it's this, it just helps.

Hello, social services reception.
Yes.
I don't have anything left Good afternoon, everyone.
I'd like to thank you all for coming here at such short notice.
We are here to share our concern about the care of Mason Bell and to discuss any safeguarding issues that arise.
Shall we start with outlining the case that first brought Mason to your attention? During an ongoing investigation, Louisa Marie Bell was found in possession of a class A drug and charged with intent to supply.
Our surveillance indicates that she routinely left her son unattended while she pursued her drug dealing, a very serious case of child neglect.
Miss Bell, if you'd like to come in.
Miss Bell, are you clear about the purpose of this case conference? We need to be sure that you fully appreciate that there are very serious concerns about Mason's care, and to see if we can find a way forward for you and Mason that will guarantee Mason's safety.
I'm sorry.
I am.
Sorry I left him alone.
Sorry I done what I did.
I will never, ever do it again.
I know you need to investigate me and everything.
And that you're considering Harriet as a temporary carer and I think that's brilliant because I think she's a brilliant person.
And I know she looks a bit mad and everything but she's a proper mum.
Respectable and and safe.
She even she even shopped her own son in t'police.
That's what kind of person that she is.
What kind of person does that? Are you going to stay calm now? We're going to release the locks, all right? I know I messed up.
I need to take your clothing and give you some more.
You understand? And I let my boy down.
But if you just if you just give us a second chance, I'm a good mum.
It's all I've ever wanted to be.
Stupid thing is, yeah there's a reason why I did it.
To get Mason out of that estate.
A better life.
I was trying to be a good mum.
And it all went wrong.
I'm sorry.
I am.
And I want your help.
If you could sign there and there.
Now, that's your copy of the foster care agreement.
You're now approved as Mason's temporary carer.
And I'm here to support you if you need me.
I'll be visiting you next week.
See how you're all getting on.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
What will happen to Paul? Nothing much.
Loss of privileges.
They'll probably take away his telly.
Cell confinement.
At least it gave him something to think about while he's in there.
You cold? D'you want to go home? No.
No, I like it here.
You can see everything.
Piece of history, this bench.
Me and Paul used to come up here when we were first going out and he used to try and undo my bra without me noticing and tell me stories.
What sort of stories? About this place, Sky Edge.
Sheffield gangs from way back.
I thought you'd crack today.
Tell Steve what you'd done.
I wanted to.
You're braver than you thought.
I used to think I had that kind of strength.
Staying power, but it takes more to change.
I can't do it.
D'you want to? Not enough.
You were right, what you said about me.
I do, I do turn a blind eye.
I know what Paul does.
He makes a living and I can live with it.
Doesn't make it right, though.
I'll have more fun than you.
Easier ride.
But I know I won't be going to heaven.
Andy I know who it is.
The grass.
It's Gemma.
Part of my job is to protect you.
Men like Andy have long memories.
There'll be some money coming for you.
You'll have to pick it up.
You should get out more.
You just need a bit of make-up.
Make the most of yourself.
I'm out now.
My turn next.
Stop it, Sean.
No-one likes a grass.
This is DS Hunter.
I need obs on a white female, heavily pregnant.
If she is accompanied, that person may be armed.
