Joe prepares to take up his new post in London, but secretly regrets the decision to leave the Yorkshire Moors. However, the arrival of his replacement PC Wetherby signals it is too late to change his mind. Nurse Carol is administering vaccinations at the school when she notices extensive bruising on a boy's body and suspects he is being abused. The youngster lives with his mother and stepfather, but recently his biological father has been back in touch, trying to see the boy - something the courts will not allow. However, tragedy strikes when conflict grows between the angry father and stepfather - with one of the Aidensfield bobbies caught in the crossfire. Rupert Ward-Lewis joins the cast
