0:00:27 > 0:00:28There you go.

0:00:31 > 0:00:32Thanks so much, Doctor.

0:00:32 > 0:00:34Thanks for coming round.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36That's no trouble, it's my job.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38- Would you like a tea or something? - No, no, I better go.

0:00:38 > 0:00:41I've got other patients to see, so...

0:00:41 > 0:00:44She's a beautiful baby, eh? How old is she?

0:00:44 > 0:00:47- Eight months.- She's teething, then.

0:00:47 > 0:00:49- You probably both need some sleep, then, eh?- Hm.

0:00:49 > 0:00:54- Well, she'll sleep now, and she'll be fine.- Hm.- Hm.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04That's better. Can't have wonky angels now, can we, eh?

0:01:04 > 0:01:05Thank you.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10(Come in with us.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13(You're going to come in with us, my darling.)

0:01:15 > 0:01:18- Hello.- Have a cuddle with us. Hello.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25Hello, my darling.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34WOMAN SCREAMS

0:01:39 > 0:01:41She's dead.

0:01:43 > 0:01:44She's dead.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49She's dead. She's dead.

0:01:49 > 0:01:54Tia, you have to let me look at her. Please.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56Come on...

0:02:01 > 0:02:03SHE SOBS

0:02:05 > 0:02:06Where are you taking her?

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Just next door.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11No, no. Tia, just wait here.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22- Hi.- Hi.- I'm looking for Phil.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24That's me.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26You were expecting a bloke.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28- Philippa?- Philomena, actually.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31Ah. Howard Bellamy - formerly Captain Bellamy.

0:02:31 > 0:02:34- Ah, you were in the military?- Yes, but I run a medical practice now.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36It's good to get out from behind the desk.

0:02:36 > 0:02:37I can't wait to get stuck in.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40Good. You can leave your stuff on the side.

0:02:51 > 0:02:52How long?

0:02:54 > 0:02:55A few hours.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58She's still warm.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03I hate these cases.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05The baby hadn't been ill -

0:03:05 > 0:03:08at least, Tia hadn't brought her into the surgery recently.

0:03:08 > 0:03:09They're your patients?

0:03:09 > 0:03:11Mm, both of them.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14I suppose it could be Sudden Infant Death Syndrome,

0:03:14 > 0:03:17but we'd need a post-mortem to be sure.

0:03:22 > 0:03:23Oh!

0:03:26 > 0:03:28What?

0:03:28 > 0:03:29A needle mark.

0:03:32 > 0:03:37Your son has unexplained bruising and you want me to come up with an explanation?

0:03:37 > 0:03:40Yes. Thank you for seeing us at such short notice, Doctor.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43Neither of us are paediatric specialists, Doctor Westerby,

0:03:43 > 0:03:45so we need the view of an expert.

0:03:45 > 0:03:49Hm. Well, I'll examine your little boy now.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52Technically, your social worker should be here,

0:03:52 > 0:03:54but she's happy for me to proceed.

0:03:54 > 0:03:55You can wait outside.

0:03:55 > 0:03:57Oh, I think Joe would be happier if we stayed.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59I'll call you back in when I'm ready.

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Zara.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10I think she's got a whole pharmacy here.

0:04:10 > 0:04:14This is over-the-counter stuff. Baby aspirin, creams for rashes and...

0:04:15 > 0:04:19This is the latest cure-all - she must've got that from the internet.

0:04:19 > 0:04:20Herbal remedies.

0:04:23 > 0:04:24And this?

0:04:27 > 0:04:31Tia's a former addict. They would have given her clean needles.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33But she stopped using as soon as she became pregnant.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35She's trying to be a good mum.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38If she used to take smack, she'd know how to give an injection.

0:04:38 > 0:04:42The last time I saw Chloe, she was teething.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Neither of them had had any sleep for days.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Maybe I should have done more, but...

0:04:48 > 0:04:49you know what it's like,

0:04:49 > 0:04:51you'd do anything for a good night's sleep.

0:04:51 > 0:04:55Yeah, well, maybe she injected Chloe with something to make her sleep.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58I didn't give her anything!

0:04:58 > 0:04:59It was the doctor.

0:04:59 > 0:05:02You took her to a doctor last night?

0:05:02 > 0:05:04No. He came here.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07Chloe had a bit of a temperature.

0:05:07 > 0:05:12I rang the out-of-hours people, they said someone'd come round.

0:05:12 > 0:05:13No-one came for hours.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18Then this doctor turned up. He was so kind.

0:05:20 > 0:05:24He gave Chloe the injection. He said she'd be fine.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27She went right off to sleep.

0:05:28 > 0:05:32And then when I woke up this morning...

0:05:32 > 0:05:33What was the doctor's name?

0:05:33 > 0:05:35I dunno - he was a bloke.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40Old. About 40.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43Brown hair. Blue eyes.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46He was really kind.

0:05:46 > 0:05:47He said she was beautiful.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50He had a Scottish accent...

0:05:51 > 0:05:54Or maybe Irish - I don't know.

0:05:54 > 0:05:56He had a proper doctor's bag.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59We will check with the out-of-hours services.

0:05:59 > 0:06:03He was here! I'm not making this up!

0:06:04 > 0:06:07You know me, Doctor - you know I'd never hurt her.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10I've done a full examination.

0:06:10 > 0:06:11In my opinion,

0:06:11 > 0:06:15there's no disease or natural cause for your son's bruises.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17I'm as certain as I possibly can be

0:06:17 > 0:06:21that these are non-accidental injuries.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24- But we thought you'd find a medical condition.- Sorry to disappoint you.

0:06:24 > 0:06:29- There's no way that it can be an injury. It must be some... - You wanted my professional opinion.

0:06:29 > 0:06:30I can't help it if you don't like it.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32Well, we'll get a second opinion.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34Are you challenging my judgment?

0:06:35 > 0:06:39As you know, I have 25 years professional expertise in this field.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42Get a second opinion by all means,

0:06:42 > 0:06:44but anyone with any sense will agree with me.

0:06:44 > 0:06:48PHONE RINGS Now, I'm afraid you'll have to excuse me -

0:06:48 > 0:06:49- the nurse will show you out.- Come on.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58Tia, we've checked with the out-of-hours service and they did

0:06:58 > 0:07:02get a call from you last night, they sent someone round straight away.

0:07:02 > 0:07:03But she couldn't get in.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06You weren't answering the door or your mobile.

0:07:06 > 0:07:13Now, they are definite that no doctor saw you or treated Chloe.

0:07:13 > 0:07:14They're lying!

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Tia, why would they lie?

0:07:16 > 0:07:18I talked to them myself.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21There were four doctors on duty last night.

0:07:21 > 0:07:25Two of them were women, one was a Nigerian, and the other a Sikh.

0:07:25 > 0:07:29None of them sound anything like the man you described.

0:07:29 > 0:07:32Is there anything you want to tell me? Something you haven't said?

0:07:32 > 0:07:34He was here! I'm not making it up!

0:07:36 > 0:07:38I'm going to need you to come down the station.

0:07:38 > 0:07:39You're not under arrest.

0:07:39 > 0:07:43I haven't done anything! I wouldn't hurt her!

0:07:45 > 0:07:47What are we going to do?

0:07:47 > 0:07:50- We have to keep fighting, we can't just walk away. - How do we fight this?

0:07:50 > 0:07:52Even the experts think we abused him!

0:07:52 > 0:07:55- Westerby's going to report back to Fleur...- Look, if we get a second opinion...

0:07:55 > 0:07:58- You said that Westerby was the best. - I thought that he was.

0:07:58 > 0:08:01Oh, OK. So we see the second-best consultant,

0:08:01 > 0:08:02and hope that they say something different?

0:08:02 > 0:08:04- What if it's the same? I- don't know!

0:08:04 > 0:08:06I thought we'd get something definite,

0:08:06 > 0:08:10- a reason for all this, and we just seem to have made it worse. - It's not your fault.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13I antagonised Fleur and she can take Joe away from us.

0:08:14 > 0:08:15It's not your fault.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19- What will happen to her?- I don't know, but if it's manslaughter,

0:08:19 > 0:08:21she'll go to prison, obviously.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23She never stood a chance.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26She's been in care herself since she was a baby.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28It doesn't make sense to me.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31- Why?- Well, her baby's ill and she has the good sense to call

0:08:31 > 0:08:34the doctor and then she injects Chloe herself?

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Why would you do that?

0:08:36 > 0:08:39Maybe she panicked.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41I don't think Tia meant to kill Chloe.

0:08:43 > 0:08:47Why would you lie about something that's so easy to disprove?

0:08:47 > 0:08:50Because she can't bear the thought that she killed her own baby,

0:08:50 > 0:08:52so she blames someone else.

0:08:54 > 0:08:55I think she half believes it.

0:08:58 > 0:09:01The "red man" day is a vital part of your training as special constables.

0:09:01 > 0:09:04You have to know how to protect yourself and the public

0:09:04 > 0:09:08in violent situations and how to defuse and control those situations.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Now I've put you into pairs...

0:09:10 > 0:09:12there's protective clothing over there -

0:09:12 > 0:09:14knee and elbow pads, helmets.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16Put it on...

0:09:16 > 0:09:17I know it may look daft,

0:09:17 > 0:09:20but it'll stop you from getting a crack on the head.

0:09:21 > 0:09:22Howard.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24Spencer.

0:09:24 > 0:09:25I heard you say you're ex-Army...

0:09:25 > 0:09:28Yeah. 25 years active service.

0:09:28 > 0:09:29That's brilliant.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32Yeah, certainly teaches you how to look after yourself.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34Stick with me, I'll show you what to do.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Do we really have to wear these?

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Health and safety gone mad.

0:09:38 > 0:09:42If we wore this lot on the street, the villains would die laughing.

0:09:44 > 0:09:45KNOCK ON DOOR

0:09:53 > 0:09:55I brought you some tea.

0:09:55 > 0:09:56How're you feeling?

0:10:01 > 0:10:03Do you believe in heaven?

0:10:03 > 0:10:05Er...

0:10:05 > 0:10:09Do you think she's with the angels?

0:10:10 > 0:10:13Yes, yeah. I'm sure she is.

0:10:13 > 0:10:14What's going to happen to me?

0:10:15 > 0:10:17We're going to ask you a few questions.

0:10:17 > 0:10:21So I think it's best if you have a solicitor.

0:10:21 > 0:10:22It's my fault.

0:10:24 > 0:10:28I injected her, I killed her.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30That's what you want me to say, isn't it?

0:10:30 > 0:10:35No. No, not if it's not true.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38No-one cares if it's true.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41I don't care.

0:10:41 > 0:10:42Now I've lost her...

0:10:44 > 0:10:46This doctor you said came to the flat...

0:10:46 > 0:10:48He did come to the flat.

0:10:48 > 0:10:49What time was it?

0:10:49 > 0:10:52Half past five. I was up all night waiting.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54Can't you remember anything else about him?

0:10:54 > 0:10:55He didn't give you a name?

0:10:57 > 0:10:59Andy.

0:10:59 > 0:11:02He said to call him Andy.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05OK. Was he wearing gloves?

0:11:05 > 0:11:06You mean, medical gloves?

0:11:06 > 0:11:08- No.- Did he touch anything?

0:11:09 > 0:11:11He touched her.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14And he straightened the mobile.

0:11:14 > 0:11:18The angels' mobile over the crib. Why?

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Because he would have left fingerprints.

0:11:23 > 0:11:24Right, Howard.

0:11:24 > 0:11:27Spencer's going to attack you, you have to defend yourself.

0:11:27 > 0:11:29Go on, Spencer, don't be shy.

0:11:38 > 0:11:39Good. And again.

0:11:45 > 0:11:46And again.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55- Aaargh!- Excellent.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57You see the importance of maintaining

0:11:57 > 0:11:59a good defensive position.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01Thanks, guys.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06Well, thanks for this, Dr McCall.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08OK, what can you tell me?

0:12:08 > 0:12:09Cath, please.

0:12:09 > 0:12:12Like I said, I never got to see this baby.

0:12:12 > 0:12:16We went to the address, got there about midnight.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19I banged on the door, shouted, tried the mobile. Nothing.

0:12:20 > 0:12:26I thought, maybe the mum had taken her baby to A&E, or it was a hoax.

0:12:26 > 0:12:27And then we left.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29Can you remember the address?

0:12:29 > 0:12:31Auckland Street. The rough end.

0:12:31 > 0:12:33- Down by the canal.- Are you sure?

0:12:33 > 0:12:36Because that is not Tia Lynch's address.

0:12:36 > 0:12:37In fact, it's nowhere near.

0:12:38 > 0:12:41We have got a description of the doctor.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44A man, about 40, dark hair, Scottish,

0:12:44 > 0:12:47- goes by the name of Andy...- Andy?

0:12:48 > 0:12:50- He's my driver.- Hm.

0:12:50 > 0:12:53What time did your shift finish last night?

0:12:53 > 0:12:57Five am. Andy finished at the same time.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00Yeah, well, this "doctor" turned up

0:13:00 > 0:13:03at Miss Lynch's flat just before 5.30.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22What's wrong with him, Daniel?

0:13:22 > 0:13:23I wish I knew.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30What if he's really sick?

0:13:31 > 0:13:35What if he's really sick and I can't look after him?

0:13:35 > 0:13:38What if he's taken into foster care and we never get him back?

0:13:42 > 0:13:43SHE SOBS

0:13:45 > 0:13:48I am not going to let this happen.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57No. No.

0:13:59 > 0:14:04I'm showing the suspect exhibit B, which is a doctor's bag,

0:14:04 > 0:14:09and exhibit C, which is a further bag filled with medicines -

0:14:09 > 0:14:14antibiotics, painkillers, aspirin, syringes, needles.

0:14:15 > 0:14:19We found these at your house, Andy. Are they yours?

0:14:19 > 0:14:20Yeah. Yeah.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24Why have you got so many medicines?

0:14:24 > 0:14:27Well, I admit, it's a...it's a bit weird.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30I buy loads, it's an anxiety thing.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32I don't take them. I just...

0:14:32 > 0:14:35Having them around makes me feel safe.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38And have you ever administered them to anyone else?

0:14:38 > 0:14:39No. Of course not. No.

0:14:41 > 0:14:48Last night, you were supposed to drive Dr McCall to Tia Lynch's house.

0:14:48 > 0:14:52But you took her to the wrong address, didn't you?

0:14:52 > 0:14:55Delaying treatment for a baby that could've been very seriously ill.

0:14:55 > 0:14:59That was a genuine mistake. I've only just moved here.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02No, it wasn't. It was deliberate.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04You didn't want Dr McCall to treat the patient,

0:15:04 > 0:15:07so you made sure she never had the chance.

0:15:07 > 0:15:10And then later on, you went back

0:15:10 > 0:15:14and you gave Chloe Lynch an injection that killed her.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16Of course I didn't. That is totally ridiculous.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21Now, my favourite. We're going to do a role play.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Yes, I knew you'd be pleased.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26Gary and Danny, here, are going to start a fight outside a night-club.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28Who wants to have a go breaking it up?

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Spencer and Howard. Away you go.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41All right, lads, calm down.

0:15:42 > 0:15:43Lads, calm down.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45Break it up!

0:15:45 > 0:15:46Now!

0:15:47 > 0:15:50I said RIGHT NOW.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52STOP.

0:15:52 > 0:15:53FREEZE!

0:15:55 > 0:15:56Uh!

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Aa-ah!

0:16:02 > 0:16:03Aaargh!

0:16:06 > 0:16:07Let's stop it there.

0:16:09 > 0:16:13If that had been a real fight, you'd both be dead.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Spencer?

0:16:15 > 0:16:20Er... I thought we controlled the situation well. Initially.

0:16:20 > 0:16:21Till you got stabbed.

0:16:21 > 0:16:23You didn't control it, either of you.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26Spencer, you're meant to break up fights, not join in.

0:16:26 > 0:16:30I didn't join in. I tried to physically separate the combatants.

0:16:30 > 0:16:33Howard tried to keep things calm, low-key. That didn't work.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36So you started shouting. That doesn't help.

0:16:36 > 0:16:40It just hypes people up even more, inflames the situation.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42Does anyone have more positive comments?

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Howard was trying to protect Spencer.

0:16:44 > 0:16:45You never leave a man down.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49Yes. But instead of saving him, you got yourself killed.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51You didn't protect your colleague or yourself.

0:16:51 > 0:16:53You forgot the basic defensive position.

0:16:53 > 0:16:56All right. It was an unmitigated disaster.

0:16:56 > 0:16:57Yeah. Just a bit.

0:16:57 > 0:17:01You screwed up, both of you, badly.

0:17:01 > 0:17:06But still - better to screw up in here than out there where someone really could get hurt.

0:17:12 > 0:17:17Look. I drive these people around, you know, these real doctors.

0:17:17 > 0:17:18You should hear them.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23At least Cath cares about the patients - the other ones,

0:17:23 > 0:17:27the older ones, they couldn't care less.

0:17:27 > 0:17:28They slag them off,

0:17:28 > 0:17:32moan about how stupid they are and they despise them.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35And they despise me.

0:17:36 > 0:17:40Yeah, I talk to them, try and be friendly,

0:17:40 > 0:17:42they treat me like dirt -

0:17:42 > 0:17:45because I'm just the driver, I'm not even worth noticing!

0:17:45 > 0:17:47So you pretend to be a doctor, a hero,

0:17:47 > 0:17:50saving lives - and then everyone would appreciate you.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53No. I'm just saying, that if you're going to do that job, right,

0:17:53 > 0:17:56you should care about people.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59And I do. More than anything, yeah?

0:17:59 > 0:18:00I'm a people person.

0:18:00 > 0:18:02And you cared about Tia Lynch?

0:18:02 > 0:18:04Is that why you went to her home?

0:18:04 > 0:18:07I didn't go. I have never met her!

0:18:07 > 0:18:09Did you give her baby an injection?

0:18:09 > 0:18:11Absolutely, categorically not.

0:18:11 > 0:18:13I have never set foot inside that flat!

0:18:13 > 0:18:14How do you know it was a flat?

0:18:14 > 0:18:19Well, that was the address, wasn't it?

0:18:19 > 0:18:21Flat 2 or whatever it is, you know.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24It's what they do - get some teenage girl, just out of care, stick her

0:18:24 > 0:18:28in some council estate miles away from anywhere, totally isolated.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30How do you know that Tia is a teenager if you've never met her?

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Because Cath said!

0:18:32 > 0:18:34Oh, come on.

0:18:34 > 0:18:35Is that really the best you've got?

0:18:37 > 0:18:38OK.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41I'm going to make this absolutely clear to you -

0:18:41 > 0:18:46I have never met Tia Lynch, I have never been inside her flat

0:18:46 > 0:18:49and I did not give her baby that injection.

0:18:50 > 0:18:55And we won't find your fingerprints if we take a look in there, Andy?

0:18:55 > 0:18:56Mm?

0:19:00 > 0:19:04OK. I'm going to need to take a break here because I'm...

0:19:05 > 0:19:08See, I don't-I don't feel very well.

0:19:08 > 0:19:11I keep getting these migraines, and...

0:19:11 > 0:19:12Well, don't you worry about that.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15Because we will get a real doctor to take a look at you.

0:19:18 > 0:19:19I feel really sick.

0:19:19 > 0:19:21Save it for the doctor, Andy.

0:19:21 > 0:19:24You. You killed my baby.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27- YOU KILLED MY BABY! - Leave it.- Let me go!

0:19:27 > 0:19:29She's wrong. I was just trying to help.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32- That's all.- She was all I had.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35Get him in a cell.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39You all right?

0:19:39 > 0:19:41You tell me. I'm the one that failed.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45You didn't fail. You tried to protect your colleague.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47Yeah, couldn't even get that right.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50Howard. I told the lads to attack one of you,

0:19:50 > 0:19:51to see what the other would do.

0:19:51 > 0:19:54How can you stop a fight and save him at the same time?

0:19:54 > 0:19:56I mean, what are you supposed to do?

0:19:56 > 0:19:59- You can't win. - That's the point of the exercise.

0:19:59 > 0:20:00It's unwinnable.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03There are no good options in that scenario,

0:20:03 > 0:20:06you can only choose the least worst.

0:20:06 > 0:20:07You see, the thing is,

0:20:07 > 0:20:09I've been in that scenario, when it's life and death,

0:20:09 > 0:20:11and got everybody out alive.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13I used... I am a good soldier.

0:20:13 > 0:20:17And I can't even get a simple training exercise right.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19You didn't fail, Howard.

0:20:19 > 0:20:22Look, I don't know how long it's been since you were Captain Bellamy,

0:20:22 > 0:20:26but you can't rely on the instincts and reflexes you once had.

0:20:26 > 0:20:29You have to be realistic about the strengths

0:20:29 > 0:20:32and weaknesses of the man you are now.

0:20:32 > 0:20:34That's what you needed to learn today.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51How are you feeling?

0:20:52 > 0:20:54All right.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57That shouldn't have happened. You shouldn't have had to see Andy...

0:20:59 > 0:21:01It helps, in a way.

0:21:01 > 0:21:06Tia, I'm so sorry I didn't believe you.

0:21:06 > 0:21:10And I, well... We're all so sorry for your loss.

0:21:15 > 0:21:16So what's going to happen to him?

0:21:16 > 0:21:19Well, with any luck, he'll be charged with murder.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21And with you as a witness, we'll have a stronger case.

0:21:21 > 0:21:23He'll be locked up, right?

0:21:23 > 0:21:25Yes. Well, I can't guarantee that, but I hope so.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27I hope he gets life.

0:21:27 > 0:21:28No. He should be dead.

0:21:30 > 0:21:32Of course I will. Anything.

0:21:32 > 0:21:35You'll have support. People to help you.

0:21:37 > 0:21:38What about now?

0:21:40 > 0:21:42Do I just go home?

0:21:42 > 0:21:45No, no. The flat is still a crime scene, and anyway,

0:21:45 > 0:21:46we don't think you should be alone.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49I've spoken to Fran, your social worker,

0:21:49 > 0:21:53and she's found a place for you to stay and someone to look after you.

0:21:56 > 0:21:57I want to see Chloe.

0:21:59 > 0:22:00Say goodbye to her, properly.

0:22:02 > 0:22:06Yes, of course. That's OK.

0:22:11 > 0:22:13Joe's all right. He's watching Peppa Pig.

0:22:15 > 0:22:16No new bruises.

0:22:18 > 0:22:19How're you doing?

0:22:21 > 0:22:24I'm his mother, and I'm a doctor,

0:22:24 > 0:22:27and I don't know what's wrong with him!

0:22:28 > 0:22:30There has to be something...

0:22:32 > 0:22:35I've had an idea, and it would mean that you could stay with Joe.

0:22:35 > 0:22:36What?

0:22:40 > 0:22:43I'm the problem. I always have been.

0:22:43 > 0:22:49I had postnatal depression and I could've really hurt him.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51You are a great mother, anyone can see that.

0:22:52 > 0:22:57So if I left - or if you and Joe left me...

0:22:58 > 0:23:00..then you'd be allowed to keep him.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04Absolutely not! You haven't hurt him!

0:23:04 > 0:23:06But they probably think that I have.

0:23:06 > 0:23:08So you're going to confess to a crime that you didn't commit?

0:23:08 > 0:23:11- That is insane. - Yeah, but I wouldn't have to.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14If you and Joe left, then they'd just assume that I was guilty.

0:23:14 > 0:23:17- Zara, please, hear me out. - You'd have a record.

0:23:17 > 0:23:20You would never be allowed near children again - this isn't just about Joe.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23- This is about your work. This is about...- If it meant that you

0:23:23 > 0:23:25and Joe could stay together, then it would be worth it.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28That is not fair.

0:23:29 > 0:23:34You are asking me to choose between you and Joe and I won't.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37It just means that he would be able to stay with one of us.

0:23:39 > 0:23:43Zara, listen to me, I'm not saying that this is a good option,

0:23:43 > 0:23:45it's just the least worst.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49And what's the alternative?

0:23:49 > 0:23:51That he's taken from both of us.

0:23:56 > 0:23:57Are you ready?

0:24:07 > 0:24:09She looks beautiful.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11Yeah. She does.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16You take as long as you need.

0:24:16 > 0:24:18OK.

0:24:19 > 0:24:22You believed me.

0:24:22 > 0:24:23No-one else ever has.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52'You think I liked being a single parent?'

0:24:54 > 0:24:57You did it. You coped.

0:24:57 > 0:25:00You were like a super-mum compared to me.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02I wasn't. I did everything wrong.

0:25:03 > 0:25:07I thought it was all about organisation, and schedules,

0:25:07 > 0:25:09and giving him the right organic vegetable puree

0:25:09 > 0:25:12at the right moment and buying the right pushchair.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14You were always so confident.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19One time, when I came home to my dad's,

0:25:19 > 0:25:21from work - I'd been out all day, Joe was teething,

0:25:21 > 0:25:26I hadn't slept in three days... I had baby sick in my hair.

0:25:27 > 0:25:31Well, it must've been there all day and nobody had said anything!

0:25:31 > 0:25:35They were probably too scared that you'd bite their heads off.

0:25:36 > 0:25:37Probably.

0:25:41 > 0:25:42You would cope without me.

0:25:44 > 0:25:46And it would mean that Joe would be with one of us.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49Daniel. It wouldn't ever work.

0:25:49 > 0:25:50It's worth a try.

0:25:50 > 0:25:55Listen. We don't know what's causing those bruises. Nobody does.

0:25:55 > 0:25:57So you leave me, he gets more bruises,

0:25:57 > 0:26:00he gets taken away from me - I end up losing you both.

0:26:03 > 0:26:07When I left you, I hated you.

0:26:14 > 0:26:15We've changed.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18We have worked it through.

0:26:18 > 0:26:22And we have learned together to be good parents.

0:26:22 > 0:26:26And I am not going to let anyone take him away from us.

0:26:28 > 0:26:29Joe needs you.

0:26:32 > 0:26:33I need you.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38What if we lose him?

0:26:38 > 0:26:42OK, under your plan, you'd lose Izzy too.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45So we won't let that happen.

0:26:45 > 0:26:47We can't let that happen.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50We are going to be a family

0:26:50 > 0:26:53and we are going to deal with this together.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10Is everything all right?

0:27:10 > 0:27:11I think we might lose Joe.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13We need to look at what's causing your insomnia.

0:27:13 > 0:27:15They've taken my scholarship,

0:27:15 > 0:27:18they want to kick me off my course - obviously I'm stressed!

0:27:18 > 0:27:21Daniel and Zara are having a nightmare of a week

0:27:21 > 0:27:24and you two are acting like spoilt kids.

0:27:26 > 0:27:27What's that?

0:27:27 > 0:27:28Cyanide.
