Doesn't look like Sam/Callum is gonna be in tonight - but here is Thursdays episode!
ITV1 8PM
Two children have been abducted: Single mum Zoë Todd went out to work in the evening leaving Jason (6) and Melanie (4) home alone. Stuart leads the search for them after Zoë discovers they’re not at home on her return. Estranged father Kevin Todd claims Zoë lost the kids last year because she was so stoned after smoking dope – unfortunately, he doesn’t know where his kids are either.
Its bad news for little Jason and Melanie: when viewing CCTV of them on the high street after they were taken, Terry recognises Greg Pope. Terry nicked Pope years ago for gross indecency with a minor. Pulled in, Pope refuses to help. Will’s vexed as he could be out searching for the missing kids.
Will takes out new PC Benjamin Gayle who has just transferred to Sun Hill station today. They investigate an attack on Roman Lesnik - at first it seems to be a gay bashing. On a personal level, Will’s disappointed to hear the bike his new colleague rides is only a mountain bike and not a motorbike.
Tracking down the men who attacked Lesnik, Will is punched and sent flying when he tries to arrest one of them. Chasing the other three in to the woods, Benjamin is soon cornered - one of them has baseball bat and they’re about to pounce. With back-up ages away, it looks like Sun Hill’s new copper is about to be flattened…
