ALARM BEEPS

HORNS BLARE

I said, shut up!

Cheers, mate.

ALARM CONTINUES WHIRRING

HORNS HONK

HORN HONKS

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

HE EXHALES

Kim. You all right?

Why wouldn't I be?

I don't know, just wondering.

Well. You?

Yeah. Great.

Hey, you all right? What's with the suit?

Oh, it's the inquest today.

An inquest today?

Yeah. I thought it was Thursday?

No, it's today. Are you ready for it, then?

I don't know if ready's the right word, mate.

I just want some answers.

I catch myself thinking that once this is all over,

everything that's happened won't be as, well,

every way that it has been, if that makes sense. Mm.

Just got to take it one thing at a time, mate.

Helps knowing someone else has been there, though.

Oh, Kim. Kim. I'm sorry, Chlo Charles' inquest - it's today.

Yeah, I know. Well, I've got the days mixed up

and I've arranged for a supply for Thursday.

That's fine, you don't need to go. It's all right.

I should go!

I've given a witness statement and the school needs to be represented.

OK. Erm...

Right, I will get onto Wendy and we will try

and find a supply for today. Thank you, Coral.

Hey, miss. Hey, mate. Hiya, you all right? Yeah.

So I was just wondering how long it'll be before you know

whether I've got ADHD for sure.

Like, two weeks or something?

Oh, it'll be longer than that.

It'll be a few weeks till you're referred and then a few months

until you're assessed. A few weeks?! Yeah, and then a few months.

He's only... Nah, I'll be a nutcase by then, won't I?

Kelly Jo... No!

HE SPEAKS IN PASHTO

MAN REPLIES IN PASHTO

Vote Samia for school councillor.

BELL RINGS

Val, I see they managed to drag you into this school council

election carry-on.

Well, I said I'd organise the count,

but it's good to give them the responsibilities.

Yeah, but we end up with extra responsibilities.

As if exam resits aren't enough extra work for one day,

it's like, "Oh, you're not allowed a personal life..."!

Who are yous going to vote for in the elections?

Not, Ryan. Not Ryan?

C'mon, you lot.

You know Miss Walker loves to give detentions.

Ryan's got more votes.

Oi, what kind of melt would want to get elected in this place?

Ah, mate, some saddos who don't have a life.

Sayin' that though, yeah, wouldn't it be fun to get one over on 'em?

Like, I could get you out the BU at lunchtimes.

No, waste of time.

We do have places to be, gents.

Please don't leave that on the floor, Dean Weever.

You're not leaving that on the floor.

I got mine here, innit.

Just pick it up, man, just put it in the bin.

I swear, he threw it. Mate, just pick it up.

HE TSKS

Thank you.

Good luck and everything.

English Lit's the one I've been brickin' it about.

Nah, you'll kill it.

Where's everyone else meant to put theirs?

You got one to put up? Are you even running, Tonya?

Maybe.

What's it to you? Nothing.

Woy-yoy-yoy-yoy-yoy!

Why don't you watch where you're going?

Do you think people are going to vote for you?

Yeah.

Oh, OK.

BELL RINGS

Is that your homework? Yeah.

You don't need to hand that in now, could have had over the weekend.

I wanted to.

OK, well, I look forward to reading it.

So, how you feeling about today?

I'm kind of just hoping that after this inquest is over,

everybody's going to stop talking about what happened.

But then I feel bad.

Yeah, OK. Why?

I feel guilty doing the stuff I like.

You know, going shopping, going out with my mates,

and even just watching TV.

The texts for phonics tests I asked you for, where are they?

I put them in your classroom yesterday afternoon, remember?

Miss Walker, is netball practice still on? Miss Walker?

Did she not hear me, miss?

She's probably just tired.

And, listen, do you really think your mum would want you to feel

guilty about shopping?

You don't have anything to feel guilty for, Izzy.

Ever.

Honestly, I'm shocked.

I can't believe that I heard you speak to Tonya like that.

Oh, as if she's going to run for school councillor.

I mean she's not Angela Rayner, is she?

No, she is a 13-year-old who's just gone through

three years of the pandemic, disrupted learning,

an endless procession of supply teachers.

Who we need to encourage, not mock.

Neil, c'mon, you are a good classroom teacher, all right?

But we are not only judged on the way we teach our subjects.

Well, maybe we should be. We're not social workers.

Sometimes, we need to be, and you know that.

I just don't understand why we can't accept the fact

that we've all got our own way of doing the job.

Fine, I will find her and I will say sorry.

It astounds me.

That letter were about his wife.

Said something about contesting. What's that?

It's like if you argue over something you own.

So, like your money? That's why he didn't let me see it.

Well, you know, it is sort of private.

Yeah, it is sad she died.

He buried her ashes under an apple tree in his garden.

What?

That's what my dad told me. That he buried her ashes...

Oh, my God, Iz, he told my mum that she was buried near Leeds somewhere.

We actually are near Leeds, cos we live in Manchester.

No, like Leeds Leeds, with her family and that.

Except, she's not, if she's under his apple tree.

Maybe it were a mistake.

That's not a mistake. That's a lie.

What if he's hiding summat?

Pfft, I'm going to the toilet.

Don't you think it's a bit mad that, Ton? Come on.

Exactly and I think you're just angry cos he laughed at you.

Mm.

Well, I'm going now.

Yeah. Goodbye. Mm-hm.

See you.

Yeah.

Supportive.

BELL RINGS

All right, settle down, class.

You don't have to worry about a thing there.

Her stories are... What's going on? Erm...

I'm just giving Donte some good vibes for today.

I'll see you later.

Bit friendly, aren't you?

Well, it's a bit of a difficult day, isn't it?

I heard you're going to the inquest as well?

I think that's a really good idea. It might help you, too.

Help me. How?

Well, you were there as well.

HORNS BLARE IN HEAD

Why don't you shut up!

You don't care about what might help me,

any more than I would if it was you.

What? That's not true.

"That's not true."

If I was as desperate to be liked as you,

I'd have packed it in years ago.

This job is going to spit you out.

Wait, hold up.

Oh, give us a break.

Checked out his wife, yeah.

Couldn't find anything about her dying.

Like, there's nothing.

But that's not it.

He's also got this thing about men who have killed their wives.

History Of Strangeways Prison, by Neil Guthrie.

It's like this talk he gives to some creepy group.

The Manchester Historical Society, you mean?

You think Guthrie killed his wife?

Well, yeah.

Let us see that. Wait, why is he... What you laughing at?

Don't worry about it. What's happened? No, let me see that again.

Something's going on with him, and I'm serious.

Let me see that again. Oh, just give me my phone.

ON PA: Year 11 hustings are about to start in the assembly hall.

So, as a member of the school council, I will do everything

I can to make sure your voices are heard,

whether it's about the canteen menus or the girls' toilets,

the changing rooms, making the school

a more accessible place to be...

I've pulled in a favour and I've managed to get key stage three

and key stage four covered. OK? Thank you. OK.

..decisions that affect every part of our lives

while we're pupils here at Waterloo Road.

This is your school and you should have a right to say how it's run.

CHEERING

Yo, yo, just listen up, everyone, yeah?

Swear down, I can do everything

Samia's talking about, except better, probably...

My man!

How's about you give us one of your own ideas, Noel?

GIGGLING

Well, there's...

Oh, come on. Erm...

Yeah. Get on with it, then.

Well...

Go on, then!

..chill-down Fridays, yeah?

Yeah, see, we get the tunes on in the playground and that.

We get some decks in, DJ Noel.

Don't know how you can even show your face in this election

after what you did at the protest.

You don't care about any issues.

I'm all about issues.

Yeah, cos you've got 'em!

LAUGHTER

Listen to this, yeah.

People eating with people should be a right, yeah?

So everyone in the BU, yeah, let's liberate 'em, man.

CHEERING Just let 'em eat with us.

What about Black Lives Matter week of action, or MeToo at school?

Chill out, Greta Tool Box.

Honestly. Right, this is how it is.

Vote for Noel - there will be absolute scenes, yeah? Be well good.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

MIXED CHEERING AND BOOING

You know why, man. You know, you know!

Now, a common misconception with Henry VIII is that he had

all of his wives executed.

Well, that is wrong, in reality, he only actually killed two.

See, Henry was driven by an obsession with having a son

and heir to secure his legacy,

but he was also a man who had a hard time controlling his emotions.

He wanted to divorce Catherine

because he had fallen in love with Anne Boleyn.

So then he had her head cut off

because he thought she'd been unfaithful.

He would later go on to have a... Listen.

..marriage of convenience with Anne of Cleves

annulled because he'd become infatuated with Catherine Howard,

who became wife number... Anyone?

Five. WHISPERING: He killed her.

He later had her executed for committing adultery. In the garden.

HE CHUCKLES

Can't have your phone out in class, son.

Sorry, clearly he doesn't understand what's going on.

Like, ain't he meant to have a translator or something?

Oh, yes, well, thank you for your contribution, Dwayne.

Give it here, son, you can have it back after class, son.

UPROAR

No, no, no, no. No, sir. All right, all right, all right, calm down.

RIOT ON PHONE VIDEO Who filmed that, you?

Did you film that?

All right, put it back in your pocket.

BELL RINGS

Right, everyone listen up, your projects for the dissolution

of the monasteries are due by the end of the week. Off you go!

DISCORDANT MIX OF SOUNDS

Miss Walker. Come on, I'll read your horoscopes.

You all right?

Yeah.

I'm going to the inquest in a bit.

I need to make sure I'm covered for the election count later.

Well, Valerie said she'd do it, didn't she?

Oh, yeah.

That reminds me,

one of my Year 9s has got some video footage of the riot.

Norullah, the Afghan lad.

I was just wondering maybe the police could do with seeing it.

Why? What was on it?

Oh, just, you know, a lot of people shouting

and moving around, you know?

I think I saw your car.

HORN BLARES Shut up!

You OK?

ON PA: Year 9 hustings in the assembly hall, please.

Some things matter, like when we all stood up

and said we didn't want our school to be named after a slave trader.

CHUCKLING

But we didn't do it in the right way.

So the school council's going to change things.

Yeah, right!

So if I'm elected school councillor,

I'll campaign on the important issues.

Black Lives Matter, MeToo, accessibility for disabled students.

These are the issues...

She's either buried in Leeds or she's in his garden,

she can't be in both.

Bro, I swear, you're off the deep end.

And the letter. He's hiding something.

A vote for me is a vote for you.

Norullah, give me that, please.

No, it's mine. Please. No! Give it to me.

Miss, you can't do that.

Do you want to stay out of this?

Sir, she's well out of order.

She's just snatched his phone off him.

Just keep an eye on him for a minute, yeah?

Oh.

OK.

ON VIDEO: I said, shut up! HORNS BLARING

Oh, no...

SHE RETCHES

What is wrong with everyone at this school?

Why are they having a go at me when I'm trying to talk about

really important issues, like, it's not fair.

Like, I just get... You!

You.

Why is everyone listening to you? You don't care about any issues.

Yeah, I mean, I don't think it's issues that are the problem here.

Are you saying it's me?

Yeah.

That still doesn't answer my question -

why everyone's listening to you.

Natural charm, innit. Some of us just have it!

You literally decided to run this morning,

you don't have any policies and you didn't put up any posters.

Yep, who needs posters when you got this much swag?!

I give up. I literally give up.

Yo...

These, erm, posters, like, if I do need 'em, then where do I get 'em?

Remember, when voting does start, it's one vote each

and then straight back to class, OK?

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

What was all that about?

Like you said, there could have been something

important on it for the inquest.

Well, you could have just asked the poor lad,

instead of barking at him, Coral.

I wanted to be able to explain, in case there was...anything.

Well, like what?

I turned around and shouted at another driver and...

So?

I shout at people all the time when I'm in the car.

The roads are full of berks.

Are you OK? You seem...

I'm fine. Erm...

But I haven't checked with Valerie yet about the election count so...

She told me she's sorting it, it's fine.

Good.

Well, you up for doing something later, then?

You can come to mine if you want. No, I can't.

I've got an essay to finish for Guthrie, so...

OK, well, call me if you finish it early.

Sure.

So, how did it go?

It was all right. Answered all the questions,

but there's not much more I can do now, really, is there?

See, I told you, any time that you need help

on catch-up stuff, I'm here.

If you want to, of course. Yeah. Nice one. Ta.

Do you really not care what people think?

There is nothing wrong in having a bit of a laugh.

Well, we're not supposed to be here so get down.

Yeah, but if you can get people laughing, yeah,

then they'll start to actually think about

what you're trying to tell 'em. Do you get what I mean?

Are you saying I'm too serious?

Yeah.

Well, I don't know any jokes.

Well, I mean, not everyone's boss at comedy.

OK, what I'm trying to say is, yeah,

if you want to get elected, then people actually have to like you.

I mean, you don't even have to be any good at it.

But I want to be good.

OK.

One mouth, two ears, yeah, means that listening's your secret weapon.

So, vote Noel.

ENGINE STARTS

TURNS OFF

ENGINE STARTS

HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYS

ON PA: Go straight to the assembly hall for the Year 7 hustings,

and, Daniels, turn that music off.

They're the rules, son.

No, no, no, Norullah, you can have it back after school.

No. No, at the end. No.

No, no, no, no, no.

Afterwards, not allowed. After school. Give me!

Whoa, wait. Son, wait.

Excuse me!

Wait, wait, wait, please. Please.

Stay there. Please, Norullah, stop.

HE SPEAKS PASHTO

Don't run. OK?

I haven't got the legs to come after you.

HE SPEAKS PASHTO

Put your phone away, right?

I'm not going to take it off you.

Please, just, just calm down and come

and sit down and let's have a talk, yeah?

Me and you, talk.

Yeah? Come on.

HE SPEAKS PASHTO

You can trust me. Come on.

Ooh, you are fast.

Sit down here.

HE SIGHS

Used to play football.

So, where are you from in Afghanistan?

I mean, where's your home town?

Your family home?

Kunduz. Kunduz.

That is north.

North, is it? North?

Yeah. There's a lot of mountains.

Mountains.

Yeah?

Do you speak Pashto?

Pashto. Pashto. Pashto.

Oh... Would you like a mint? Mm?

CHEERING

Thank you for all of your hard work and enthusiasm.

Does anybody have anything else they would like to say,

whilst you've still got your electorate here?

Yeah, OK, Shola.

I know what I believe.

But I know that everyone else has their own ideas.

So whilst I'll still campaign on the issues I care about,

I also want to listen to the things that are important to you.

So I won't just talk all the time.

One mouth, two ears.

APPLAUSE

Right, anybody else? Nope? OK.

Right, then, well, you have heard from all of your candidates,

so now it is time to vote.

And the results will be announced at the end of the school day.

OK, thank you.

I'll let you have that one.

We've heard the main findings of the medical,

police and pathologist reports and the relevant

sections of written witness statements submitted as evidence.

We will take a short break

and when we return, I will move on to my conclusion.

All rise.

Your mother and father, are they still in Kunduz?

Any brothers or sisters?

Sister in Kunduz, my brother and me travel.

Is he here in Manchester?

Where...?

Your mother and father will be so happy that you are at this school.

Mm, you know, happy?

You are here now, yeah?

It's a good place.

You'll make friends and your life will be good.

I was with my brother in the refugee camp in Greece.

He went to find a friend who might help us, but I don't see him again.

I didn't know you could speak English.

No-one can find my brother.

They have looked for him.

Maybe he is, maybe he is dead.

No, no, no, no, you mustn't think like that.

He'll be out there somewhere.

He's probably looking for you.

There must be a way that we can find out where he is.

We'll go and see Mr Casey and see what we can do.

It's possible to help us?

Yes. We will.

All rise.

The death of a young mother is a tragedy

and it's natural that we should

look for conclusive answers to the many questions her family have.

Unfortunately, this has been difficult under the circumstances.

The vehicle which hit Mrs Charles

was shunted from behind by a second vehicle,

driven by Miss Coral Walker.

Miss Walker's statement claimed that her vision was obscured

by paint splatter on her vehicle's windscreen,

therefore, the accident was unavoidable.

In addition, we have to consider the possibility

that the subarachnoid haemorrhage was due to a pre-existing aneurysm.

I cannot find the appropriate standard of proof

of a causal link between the collision,

the bleed on the brain, and death.

Therefore, I am going to return an open conclusion in this case.

What? What does that mean?

I hope this brings some closure and comfort to you.

The usher will now take you through the process of obtaining

the death certificate.

All rise.

Give you time? You've had all the time that you need.

I understand. I understand you're upset...

Please, just do something, all right? Do something.

Coral.

Why didn't you tell me?

I don't get it.

You never once mentioned to me that you were involved in the crash.

I spoke to the police and they told me not to say anything.

But they cleared me of any wrongdoing.

My wife died.

You were there.

It wasn't my fault, I couldn't see a thing.

Coral, please. Please.

Please. I need... I need to know what happened.

She just said it could have been a pre-existing condition.

Which doesn't make any sense.

I can't help you!

I've told everyone everything I know.

The Red Cross are trying to locate his brother, as far as I know.

I'll have to check his welfare notes.

Should we... Do you want to...? Yeah.

I didn't realise you could speak English this well, Norullah.

My father taught me. Right.

Not quite sure how the Senco assessment missed that.

Give me two minutes, yeah?

I used to listen to the BBC World Service,

but since I'm here, I don't use it.

Why not?

If I don't speak, then I'm left alone.

No, no, no, no, son, you don't want to be alone.

Sounds like you've had enough of that.

United, eh?

Best team in the world.

Ha-ha! They're not even the best team in Manchester!

They are. They are not.

Uh, Mr Guthrie...?

Right, so, registered in a refugee camp in Greece last summer.

Red Cross ARE trying to trace him, which is really positive.

Will you help me?

Yeah, yeah, whatever we can do.

Right, go on.

Get yourself home, Norullah.

Thank you, Mr Guthrie.

That is quite a breakthrough, Neil.

Well done.

BELL RINGS

ON PA: School council election results

are being announced in the hall.

What happened?

Erm, open conclusion.

No evidence to suggest any single thing was responsible.

OK.

Thanks.

Probably not what Donte wanted to hear, but at least it's over.

I need to get to netball practice.

Right, the votes have been counted

and recounted by our returning officer, and we have the results.

In year order, working upwards -

Year 7, Waris Khalid.

Year 8, Gemma Bowen.

Year 9, Shola Aku.

Yes!

Year 10, Bethany Simmons.

Year 11...

..Noel McManus.

CHEERING

I'm really sorry.

All right, all right, all right, so each one of you needs to submit

a policy document by the end of the week, OK?

With any ideas that you might have for the school council charter.

Document?

Yes, Noel, with power comes responsibility.

True for Spider-Man, true for you.

CHUCKLING AND MURMURING

There's something about Guthrie, right?

You are seriously obsessed.

I can feel it.

Yeah, sure, he killed his wife. Makes total sense.

Which do you think he did,

buried her in the garden or cremated her in Leeds?

Buried her in the garden or cremated her in Leeds?

He's got history club tonight.

Why don't we go round there, check his garden out.

No way you've got the bottle.

I would, but I don't actually know where he lives, so...

Drake Lane.

Went by there a couple of days ago. Number 12, I think it was.

Bottling it?

I mean you know where he lives, you know he'll be out.

What more do you need, detective?

Are you coming or are you a bottler?

See you there.

Shola! Oh, oh, hey.

Congratulations. Not too sure, man.

I thought you were well up for it.

You were going to do everything that Samia was, except better.

It's all the stuff they've got us doing now, yeah,

like giving up dinner times and staying late.

All I said I wanted to do, yeah,

was play some bangers at lunch on Friday.

So then, tell them that you don't want to do it any more.

I'd feel like a right div.

Well, I can help you if you want.

Yeah, like, do me document for us?

No. No.

But I'll be working on mine at lunch tomorrow

so if you want to meet up or something, I can help you.

No, OK, so you're not making the decision

if you're throwing the ball.

So, if you're signalling to go left, you move left.

You don't just stay still.

Move your feet when you're signalling to go in that direction.

It's all about communicating with each other.

If that doesn't happen, you're not going to get the ball, are you?

It's basic stuff.

Miss Walker, over here.

Pass was too high.

Told you already.

Miss Walker...?

THEY GASP

Are you all right, Miss?

INTERNALLY: I said, shut up!

No, I'm not! I am not all right.

I am not a machine!

Miss?

GIGGLING

MUFFLED CHATTER

So, what exactly are we looking for?

We're looking for his dead wife.

Oh, my God.

He's even more of a weirdo than I thought.

I read about these people who found bodies in the garden,

under where grass and flowers and stuff won't grow.

Over there.

And it's near a tree.

Mm. I mean what are you going to use to dig?

Your hands?

Unless, we could just leave it.

No.

Cos she could be there.

All right, let's do it, then.

All right, you take that spade, I'll go over here.

CORAL SOBS What on earth is it?

Coral, what's happened?

Oh, Izzy, just give us a minute, please.

Out you come.

That is practice over for today, OK?

Miss, I need to get my stuff.

And I need my phone.

All right, well, just stay here for now and I will let you know

when you can come in, OK? Just stay there.

Coral, what's happened? What's happened?

It was me.

What?

I freaked out and I totally lost control.

Someone was beeping their horn, I turned around,

I wasn't looking, and the car went forward.

I could hardly breathe, the riot and the noise.

It was like my worst nightmare and they wouldn't stop bloody beepin'.

Hey, it's OK. It's OK.

I nearly didn't come in that morning.

I forced myself to get in the car.

I didn't think I could face it.

Face what?

Everything.

Coming back for another term, being head of department,

teaching, the three Is, assessments, management reviews,

everything coming from every direction,

knowing no matter what I do, it will never be enough.

And you said, do better.

And I am trying.

I know you are.

I know you are and you are a brilliant teacher.

I'm not a brilliant teacher.

Of course you are, you're a brilliant teacher.

You don't know, you don't know me.

I have killed someone!

I lied.

I lied to everybody, to the police, to Donte,

but the truth is Chlo Charles is dead because I lost my temper.

No matter how you are feeling,

no matter what you think has happened,

there is nothing that we cannot sort out, OK?

Nothing.

We can do this together, all right?

DOOR RATTLES

Guthrie.

Hi!

Who invited them?

Bro, what are you doing here?

She made me tell her.

If yous are worried about me telling my dad,

I literally don't tell him anything.

I'm only here cos I want to help.

No way, get out.

They're here now. Anyway!

So I was watching this thing where people, like, bury things

in the back garden where there's no grass, it was really interesting.

BOTH: Yeah, we know!

OK. You're not the first one that's said it.

Millie, can I please borrow your phone?

Are you... Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm fine. Are you sure, do you need anything?

No. Can I please just borrow your phone?

All right, I'm sorry. Thank you.

Have you lot seen it in here?

It's just all, like, history stuff, really.

And there's only pictures of old buildings and paintings and things

like that, but there's actually no pictures of his wife, like, at all.

Maybe it was just too much to handle for a guilty conscience,

I don't know. If you're not going to help us dig,

what are you even doing here?

PHONE BUZZES

Dad, it's me.

I...

Miss Walker, she just, she just...

About Mum.

SHE EXCLAIMS

Look! Bro.

THEY SCREAM

See, a bone, I told you.

He killed his wife.

He's a murderer.

Oi, what's going on?

Mr Guthrie killed his wife and buried her.

We've just found her, look.

Look, I've got no idea what you're talking about, but this isn't right.

All of you, out of here now. Look at it!

What the hell are you lot doing here?

Sorry, mate, I just came by and I found 'em.

I was just telling 'em to leave. Yeah, I heard!

We found your wife's bones, you buried her here.

Did you kill her? Tonya, that's enough!

Look at it. First, he said he had her cremated, then he buried her

and now we've found her.

This is a ham hock, you...silly girl.

Next door's dog gets through a hole in that fence and buries his bones.

Now, all of you say sorry, and then do one.

Mr Guthrie's wife died, all right, have some respect.

Sorry, sir.

I didn't kill her!

Cos she's not dead.

She left me.

She lives in Leeds with my daughters.

So, now you know. Now, get out!

I don't get it.

She left me for me best mate.

It was humiliating.

Then, one day, right out the blue, someone comes up to me

and says they were sorry to hear about me wife passing.

And I didn't correct them.

Cos it was easier, it was less painful.

I just said it once and then I couldn't un-say it.

And if it means that we can't be friends...

Friends?! You don't lie to friends!

Not like that.

You know why I came here? Because I thought you'd be

the one person who'd understand how I'm feeling.

But I do, because we've got to know each other because of the meetings.

They gave us an open verdict on Chlo.

No answers, no moving on,

no end in sight for me Izzy or Tommy, and now this!

Ah!

Don't ever come near me again!

I didn't think I could feel any worse.

OK, all right, thank you very much, babe, I'll see you at home.

Yeah, OK, thanks, bye.

Kim, I just told Mike everything that Coral told you.

And about her deleting the video off the phone?

Yes, it isn't admissible, Kim.

The inquest is over, right? The coroner's given a verdict.

Whatever happened and whatever Coral's memory of it is,

it wasn't her fault.

They couldn't even say if the accident

was what caused Chlo's death.

Yeah.

Yeah, thank you. Thank you.

Kim, are you all right? Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Yeah. Hey.

I want to hug you.

There are problems that can't be solved with tea and biscuits,

but I can't think of one.

IZZY ON MESSAGE: Dad, it's me.

Miss Walker, she just...

About Mum.

She lied about what happened.

Please, come and get me, Dad. Please.

Chlo died because lots of different things came together in a way

that nobody could have predicted or prevented.

And it is tragic and it is devastating,

but it isn't your fault.

Iz, what's happened?

Well, it's OK, she's fine, it's just...

Hey, come here.

It's all right. Talk to me.

You said something about Coral.

She said it's her fault.

She lied to everyone.

She said Mum's dead because she lost her temper.

Donte!

Look, the most important thing now is that you get all the help

and support that you need to be the brilliant teacher that you are.

I want you to know that we're here for... Donte. What did you

tell Izzy? Whoa. Did you lie?

All right, let's step outside for a second.

No, I just want to know what's going on. I'm sorry. Oh.

No, so it's true? You killed her?

All right, that's enough. I want you to leave, Donte.

Oh, man! You've been teaching Izzy.

You've been walking past me every day

saying hi like nothing happened!

When you knew that you caused the crash. OK, outside, mate, come on.

No. I want to hear her tell me the truth this time.

Erm, I just lost my temper.

Oh, man...!

Look... Look, come on, mate, it's not the time for it.

Best thing to do is go home. Don't tell me what's best for me!

Your wife wasn't killed! Killed!

Izzy, we're going, come on.

Let's go, now. What's happened?

Just get in the car. What's happened?

Just get in the car, all right? Come on.

Belt on.

Dad! Ah!

Kim.

Kim! We need you outside.

Dad, what are you doing?!

Donte, stop! It wasn't Coral's fault.

Yeah? Then whose fault was it, then?

Cos it wasn't anyone's, is what I'm being told.

Put it down, mate.

HE GRUNTS

Dad, please.

Stop.

We're going home.

I just want some answers. We deserve 'em!

I'll take Coral home.

Not in this, obviously.

DOORBELL RINGS

Can't they just leave me alone?

Norullah.

I heard some people talking today and that you live on this road.

Right.

They were saying stupid things about your wife.

Look, you're not supposed to be here,

so you best be getting yourself back home.

This is my brother and my sister.

And here are my parents.

And this is my town, Kunduz.

I thought you might like to see.

MUSIC: Black Over Grey by Neev

I'm so sorry, Iz.

Listen, you've got me and you've got nothing to be sorry about, OK.

You were right to be angry.

Nobody knows what it's like.

Nobody can tell us how to feel.

Come here.

I'm not letting this go, OK?

I promise.

Hannah. Hannah, listen to me.

It's not working.

I'm sorry, but we've tried

and we just keep arguing over the same things.

It's...

At this point, we just need to figure out what's best for the kids.

Look, I can't speak about this here, I'll call you later, OK?

All right.

All right.

Right, so, this fella here is our local MP.

Member of Parliament, politician.

And he can help find my brother?

Well, we can email him, and explain what's happening.

I need to ask you a question.

What?

Did you kill your wife?

No, I chuffin' well didn't.

I just wanted to check.

My wife, ex-wife...

..is moving to New Zealand with her new husband.

That is far away. Couldn't be any further.

See, she's taking my daughters.

I got a letter this morning, from someone called a mediator,

asking for my permission, because we've got joint custody,

which means that I still get to see them.

You'll not see them any more?

I contested it for a while, fought it, but it's what they all want.

So, erm, I'm not going to try and stop it.

You have brothers and sisters?

Mm. Brother.

Just like you.

He lives near here?

Well, not as far as New Zealand.

It's important to keep in touch when you can.

Family is important.

So let's try and see what we can do to find YOUR brother.

Hmm?

He likes Manchester United, too.

Oh, really? Shall we leave it, then?

You're joking! HE LAUGHS

Well, nobody's perfect.

Right, let's start this email.

How do you spell his name? Nazir.

N-A-Z-I-R.

You should be gone.

Oh, I've still got a bit of scheduling to do, so...

It's time you got off now.

Yeah, probably.

I can mess up and let people down just as easily

from home as from here.

Hey, come on.

Coral got in that state and I didn't even pick up on it.

Because she didn't want you to. No.

No, that's not the point.

Look, we're stretched to breaking.

You more than anyone.

You can't be on everything.

No, but I should be on everything.

It is actually my job.

But instead, I pushed her too hard and then

I made what was already a really big problem into something worse.

No, it's not your fault.

It is my fault.

Nothing is working out the way that it's supposed to do

and the school is falling apart and I'm falling...

I don't know, I don't know what to do about it.

Again, no.

Without you, this would all fall apart.

No.

You are keeping this together.

You don't know how brilliant you are.

No.

I'm your boss.

Hannah.

It's over.

We're getting a divorce.
