Scott & Bailey

Called to the home of an elderly couple who haven't been seen for a while, Janet discovers Eunice Bevan's severed head at the bottom of the stairs, her body at the top, and her husband Joe in bed, emaciated and barely able to speak.

Retrospective episode set immediately after the events of season two. Rachel faces further accusations of masterminding the fatal attack on ex-lover Nick and finds comfort in the arms of ever-faithful Sean, agreeing to marry him. The detectives also investigate the case of a businessman suspected of murdering a tramp.

The detectives investigate the murder of a wealthy man whose double life left him vulnerable to exploitation. Away from work, Rachel's recent moment of indiscretion threatens to come back to haunt her when a confused Sean takes a phone call from her one-night stand.

Troubled saleswoman Helen turns up on Janet's doorstep with information that takes the investigation into the death of her mother in a completely different direction - paving the way for the formidable Det. Supt Julie Dodson to be called in.

Having realized her marriage is a mistake, Rachel is still staying at Janet's and making excuses for her absence, but Sean isn't prepared to accept that things have gone so wrong, so quickly. Meanwhile, the investigation into Joe Bevan continues.

When Janet gets called in to Gill's office to explain a cheeky email that she's sent to Rob, she's adamant that it wasn't from her, and mortified that Rob will think it is. Meanwhile, Catherine, daughter of care home resident Gerald French, raises concerns about the level of care her father had been receiving, so Scott and Bailey are sent in to investigate.

Syndicate 9 are left reeling at the identity of the mole in the team, and when a body is found in Oldham town center, the detective duo discover that a spate of street robberies may lead them to the killer.

With their friendship in tatters, the lack of communication between Rachel and Janet is making even the simplest of tasks difficult, and it takes a call about Gill's possible abduction to reunite them as a team.
