The police and Tom

 Sunday 26 August 2007, 8pm, BBC One


With Fiona taken in for police questioning over George's death, Anna's uncertain whether or not her and Tom's plans for Botswana should still stand, but Tom persuades her to leave as soon as possible.

In her haste, Anna has little time to contemplate the shocking revelation that she's Frank's daughter. Meanwhile, Frank reveals the truth behind his affair with her mother Imogen and that they were madly in love. It transpires Frank and Imogen had arranged to run off together but she chickened out. 16 years later, Imogen turned up out of the blue and revealed she was dying and that if anything happened to Anna, that Frank should look after her. Franks declares he came back to look after Anna following George's death.

Sarah faces a challenge to keep the practice going in the absence of Anna and Tom, and Claudie thinks she has the answer. However, Sarah has other things on her mind when she discovers she's pregnant. She confides in Anna that she believes the father's Sebastian. Anna talks her into keeping the baby.

Tom's plans are halted as the police discover a pair of wire cutters believed to be connected to George's death. Tom declares that he believes Fiona's been trying to stitch him up. When he explains she killed George, the cops query why he didn't come forward sooner. With not enough evidence to charge him, Tom's released.

When Fiona discovers Tom's real intentions, she storms to The Chase to confront Anna. A huge row ensues with Sarah and Anna caught up in Fiona's rage. Fiona holds a knife to Sarah but tragically the victim of her anger is someone she never intended to hurt. In a blind fury, she fatally stabs Tom and he collapses in Anna's arms.
