| Colin is given another card |
Someone is in a car, watching Colin as he receives a sympathy card from an unknown villager;
 |
| He is unaware that he is being watched . . . |
he looks around before closing the door
 |
| . . . by Yvonne! |
and we discover that the person on the car is Yvonne.
 |
| "We don't have a spare shirt" |
Inside the house, Colin tells Britt that it is another card; “Right, don’t put these on until after breakfast,” she tells him, after ironing his white shirt, “Because we don’t have a spare shirt if you get ketchup on it.”
 |
| "That's exactly what I wore to Izzy's funeral" |
He looks, transfixed, at the shirt and suit hanging there; “That’s exactly what I wore to Izzy’s funeral,” he says,
 |
| "Oh, Colin!" |
and hurries upstairs.
 |
| "The boss sent me home" |
In the pharmacy, Maya is surprised to see Delyth; she comments, “Short shift!” Delyth has been sent home by her boss, who wants her to go to the memorial service.
 |
| "Have toy tell him about you and Yvonne?" |
“Have you told him, then, about you and Yvonne?” Maya asks.
 |
| "He wants someone there one behalf of the force" |
“Nobody knows, apart from you and me,” Delyth replies, “He wants someone there on behalf of the force.”
 |
| "It might be a good idea for you to go" |
Maya points out that she has already said that it might be good for her to go, to say goodbye, but Delyth still reluctant to go.
 |
| "What if I came with you?" |
“What if I came with you, to support you?” Maya offers and has already made up her mind, “We’re going!”
 |
| Delyth is very reluctant |
Delyth is not in favour of this.
 |
| "Another three are lame, Eileen" |
At Deri Fawr, Howard is speaking on the phone, “Another three are lame, Eileen, and they need to go to the vet now.” In the background can be heard the anguished cry of dogs howling and whimpering.
 |
| "I know it's in the contract" |
“I know it’s in the contract, but how am I supposed to afford that?
 |
| "I'll deal with it myself, then" |
“OK, I’ll deal with it myself then – all right?”
 |
| He throws down his phone |
He throws down the phone.
 |
| "Greta ran straight to her friends" |
Siôn reports to Iolo, “She let go of my hand and ran straight to her friends – she’s got a good group at school, fair play. Do you want some breakfast before the service?”
 |
| "I'm not going to the service" |
Iolo replies that he does not, adding that he will not go to the service;
 |
| "That's quite understandable" |
Siôn appreciates that, after Tyler. “And I was thinking of driving to Aberystwyth this afternoon,” Iolo goes on, “My friend Ger has moved there and he’s enjoying it.”
“You’re not thinking of moving to Aber, are you?” asks his father, with a note of concern. Iolo answers that he has been looking at houses this morning; the rents look pretty reasonable.
 |
| "What about Greta?" |
“And what about Greta?” demands Siôn. He is informed that Iolo has been in touch with a local school who are willing to accept her if he applies. “What about the school here? You don’t want to disrupt her education.”
 |
| "Children change schools all the time" |
“Dad, children change schools all the time – she’ll be fine.” Siôn says he cannot understand the big rush
 |
| "There's nothing to keep me here" |
and is told that there is nothing to keep Iolo in Cwmderi now.
“There we are – if that’s how you feel!” snaps his father. When Iolo asks if Siôn will look after Greta this afternoon, so he can go,
 |
| "If you go to Aber, I won't be there to help out" |
he is told, “No – if you go to Aber, I won’t be there to help out.”
 |
| "I've got a loyalty card" |
Kelly and Rhys come out of the deli as she tells him, “I’ve got a loyalty card, so if you book anything, make sure you do it through me, because I’ll get the points. Mind you, I don’t know if I want to go back there again.”
 |
| "Have you seen the e-mail from Griffiths?" |
Rhys is looking anxiously at his phone and she asks if everything is all right; “Have you seen the e-mail from Griffiths? A new property this afternoon?”
 |
| "No – you've got loads of clients" |
He shows Kelly his phone and asks if she would prefer him to do it. She is adamant, “No – you’ve got loads of clients already, so it’s fine.”
 |
| "Shall I come with you?" |
However, when he volunteers to go with her, she would prefer that.
 |
| Don't recognise that front door |
There is a knock at an unfamiliar door we have not seen before; we find that it is Yvonne.
 |
| Whoever is Kate Thompson? |
She asks whether the person opening the door is Kate Thompson
 |
| "Suzy Davies, CID" |
and introduces herself as Suzy Davies, CID, showing her warrant card; “I’m here to discuss your sister, Laura.”
 |
| "You'd better come in" |
She is invited into the house.
 |
| Jinx and Colin finalise the plans |
In the Deri, everything is prepared for the memorial service; Jinx and Colin are going through the order of service. “Then I invite you, Britt and Gaynor up to sing, yes?” says Jinx.
 |
| "What was the name?" |
He is reminded to use the name of group, which Jinx has not quite grasped; he tries, “Y Clocsiau,” [the Clogs] and then, “Y Cloncwyr,” [the Clunkers] before being informed of the correct name, “Y Cloriau.” [The Covers]
 |
| "I know you and Yvonne didn't see eye-to-eye" |
Colin thanks him for today; “I realise that you and Yvonne didn’t always see eye-to-eye,”
 |
| "I was too prepared to take Gwyneth's side . . ." |
and Jinx is happy to help, confessing that perhaps he was too hard on Yvonne all those years and too prepared to take Gwyneth’s side.
 |
| ". . . that's how she got away with everything" |
“That’s how she got away with everything – she deceived everyone.”
 |
| "You're just in time for a rehearsal" |
Gaynor comes in and Britt wants to fit in a rehearsal before the service. It appears that Gaynor has now developed cold feet and does not want to sing.
 |
| "I don't know why I agreed to do this" |
“I don’t want to stand in front of everyone, trying to harmonise – I don’t know why I agreed to do this.”
 |
| "We're doing it for Colin!" |
Britt is angered by this, “We’re doing it for Colin – I don’t want to sing either, but I’ve learned Yvonne’s solo now – that’s not going to waste!”
 |
| "But I'm a bag of nerves!" |
Gaynor protests that she is a bag of nerves,
 |
| "This is not about you, Gaynor" |
but is reminded, “This is not about you – you can’t let Colin down at the last minute! Go and have a drink!”
Gaynor thinks it is a bit early for that, but Britt has already had one.
 |
| Colin is looking very uneasy |
Colin, by the bar, is looking very anxious.
 |
| "I don't have any further news" |
Yvonne – alias Suzy Davies – apologises that she does not have any further news,
 |
| "I feel like everyone has forgotten about it" |
but Kate tells her, “Don’t worry – I get my hopes up every time I hear from the police – I feel like everyone has forgotten about it, to be honest.”
 |
| "We're reviewing a lot of old cases" |
“We’re reviewing a lot of old cases, including your sister’s disappearance,” she is told.
 |
| "We'll do anything we can to help" |
Kate and the rest of her family are willing to do anything that will help. Yvonne notices a photograph on the piano and asks if it is Laura.
 |
| "She loved playing the piano when she was little . . ." |
Kate confirms that it is, adding, “She loved playing the piano from when she was little – she played every time she came home, but she did not come home very often by the end.
 |
| ". . . I'd do anything to hear her play again" |
“But I’d do anything to hear her play again now. I know it’s unlikely after ten years – but I still live in hope – that’s all you can do, isn’t it?”
 |
| "Say what you've got to say and then go!" |
Howard is not in a good mood, and when he has visitors, he tells them, “I’m busy, so say what you’ve got to say and then go!”
The callers are Rhys and Kelly;
 |
| "We have an appointment" |
Rhys points out that they have an appointment
 |
| "Tomos ac Ellis" |
and Kelly adds, “Tomos ac Ellis.”
 |
| "What's this – the glamorous assistant?" |
“What’s this – the glamorous assistant?” demands Howard and it is explained to him that this is a large property which takes two to deal with.
 |
| "John hasn't told you, has he?" |
“John hasn’t told you, has he?” Rhys continues, while Kelly adds that he is selling Deri Fawr.
 |
| "You are joking?" |
At first Howard thinks they are joking, but Kelly enlightens him, “Why would we joke? That’s why we’re here.
 |
| "The house, the business, the outbuildings – everything" |
“He’s given us permission to do the measurements and put the listing up as soon as possible – the house, the business, the outbuildings – everything.”
 |
| Howard is dumbstruck |
Howard cannot believe his ears.
 |
| "It's not easy with her staring at me!" |
People are gathering in the Deri, with Maya and Delyth having just arrived. Maya hopes that the large photo of Yvonne on the bar will not upset her partner; “It’s not easy with her staring at me!” growls Delyth.
 |
| Note Geraint's tattoo |
We see that Geraint, who is on duty, has a tattoo on the back of his left hand. The two of them are welcomed by Gaynor, who was not expecting to see them there.
 |
| "She's here in her official capacity" |
Maya explains that Delyth is there in her official capacity.
 |
| "It's only lime and soda, to calm my nerves" |
Gaynor is quick to point out that her drink is only lime and soda to calm her nerves, as she is singing.
 |
| "You're singing a solo?" |
When Maya assumes that it is a solo,
 |
| "I'd need something far stronger for that!" |
she is informed, “Goodness, no – I’d need something far stronger for that!”
 |
| "Would you like to take your seats?" |
Jinx invites them all to take a seat
 |
| "Are you OK, Dee" |
and Delyth tries to look as if she is OK.
 |
| "Dad sent you, did he?" |
Ffion arrives at Y Felin, with Iolo suspecting that his father sent her there; “He’s worried, Iolo – it would be a big change to move – especially for Greta.”
 |
| "I have to do something, Ffi!" |
“But I have to do something, Ffi – look, when I was in rehab, right, everything felt better –
 |
| "I wasn't constantly reminded of . . ." |
“I saw everything more clearly because I wasn’t constantly reminded of . . .”
 |
| "Tyler – you might accept it one day" |
Ffion supplies the missing word, “Tyler. Look, you might accept it one day – and be glad of the memories.”
 |
| "Not all the memories are good ones" |
He maintains that not all of the memories are good ones and that is why he feels that he cannot move on.
 |
| "I'm not doing your father's dirty work" |
“But have you considered how leaving here would affect Greta? I’m not doing your father’s dirty work,” Ffion assures him, “I’m saying that as a headteacher.”
 |
| "Wouldn't that be best for Greta?" |
He concedes that it is not ideal, but she will get used to it; “The idea of going is what’s keeping me sane – wouldn’t that be best for Greta? Seeing her Dad happy and in a better place?”
 |
| "Yes – but Aberystwyth?" |
Ffion has to agree that is true, but does appear rather dubious about the choice of Aberystwyth.
 |
| Howard is despondent |
Howard is sitting in a very depressed mood with his phone when the estate agents come downstairs; “It’s even bigger than I expected,” comments Rhys, with Kelly describing it as spacious,
 |
| "The decor leaves a lot to be desired" |
although the décor upstairs leaves a lot to be desired.
 |
| "John has confirmed it . . ." |
Howard has phoned John, who has confirmed the situation;
 |
| ". . . you're enjoying this, aren't you?" |
he snarls at Kelly, “You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?”
 |
| "Kelly's just doing her job" |
Rhys stresses that she is simply doing her job.
 |
| "And you'd better get used to it!" |
“And you’d better get used to it, because I’m in charge of the sale from start to finish,” Kelly emphasises, “I’ll be in touch to organise the photographer and stuff.”
 |
| "What's all that whining?" |
Throughout their visit there has been the sound of wailing and howling dogs in the background. When Rhys calls attention to that, they are shown the door, with Howard insisting that he has things to do.
 |
| "What is all the noise?" |
As Kelly walks out of the door she asks him what the noise is; “That barking?”
 |
| "Animals make noise" |
He replies that they are on a farm and animals make noise, but she insists that the noise is incessant.
He informs her that they are Penrhewl’s hunting dogs, which he is looking after for Eileen.
 |
| "I'll get rid of them before you start the viewings, don't worry" |
“I’ll get rid of them before you start the viewings, don’t worry.” He closes the door behind her.
 |
| The photo of Laura |
Yvonne is now looking at the photo of Laura
 |
| "Did they take DNA samples?" |
and asks, “Did the police carry out any enquiries with the family? Take DNA samples and so on?”
 |
| "They did as little as possible, Suzy" |
“They did as little as possible, Suzy,” sighs Kate, “That’s why I’m surprised to see you today – no-one has ever given a damn.”
Yvonne asks if they looked into things
 |
| "We never got the photo back" |
and is told, “They turned up, took some statements and borrowed one photo – which we never got back. Then it was ‘We’ll let you know if there’s any news.’
 |
| "Laura was just a homeless druggie" |
Laura was a homeless druggie to them – just a piece of dirt, begging on the street.”
 |
| "But she was your sister" |
“But she was your sister,” says Yvonne,
 |
| "Do you have any brothers or sisters?" |
and is asked if she has any brothers or sisters. “One brother – I moved away and we lost contact,” is the reply.
 |
| "At least, you've got the option to speak to him again" |
“At least you’ve got the option to speak to him again – I’d do anything to reach out to Laura. We were close at one time, but I turned my back on her when she needed me most.”
 |
| Yvonne can identify with this |
This has obviously struck a chord with Yvonne.
 |
| "My little sister . . ." |
In the Deri, Colin says hesitantly, “My little sister – when I was growing up in Lampeter,
 |
| ". . . always stood up for me, her big brother" |
“Yvonne always stood up for me, her big brother.”
 |
| They listen intently |
locals who have gathered pay attention to his words. “For the family, for her beliefs and principles which were so important to her – for her cat as well, poor thing.
 |
| "She had a mischievous side as well" |
“But she had a mischievous side as well – I remember one year she was playing a shepherd in the nativity play in Siloh Chapel in Lampeter.
 |
| "She wanted to be Mary, you see" |
“She protested – goodness me – she wanted to be Mary, you see – or an angel, at least.
 |
| "She started hitting the angels" |
“Well, during the performance she grabbed a hymn book and started hitting the angels one after another – her mother had to carry her out under her arm!
 |
| "She never got the chance to be an angel" |
“She never got the chance to be an angel.”
At this point, emotion seems to overcome Colin; “Well, she’ll always be an angel to me,” he says, wiping a tear from his eye, “That’s what was so special about Yvonne – she never held a grudge, because, she had this smile, you see – the most special smile you could . . .
 |
| This is all getting too much for Colin . . . |
“Sorry, I can’t . . .”
 |
| . . . so Gaynor steps in |
Gaynor steps forward to finish his sentence; “She was a very special sister, wasn’t she, Col?
 |
| "She will be greatly missed" |
“And she will be greatly missed.”
Delyth and Maya look at each other, while Britt is anxious about Colin
 |
| The photograph on the bar |
and we see a close-up of the photograph.
 |
| Howard is pondering |
In Deri Fawr, Howard is sitting at the table, which appears to be littered with tractor parts; he has a drink in his hand and listens to the continuing sounds of dogs in distress.
 |
| He drains the last of his drink . . . |
He drains his glass, gets up
 |
| . . . reaches for the shotgun . . . |
and reaches for the shotgun, which is kept on a high ledge.
 |
| . . . and makes a decision |
He looks at it and decides what he is going to do.
 |
| "It's always difficult to say goodbye to someone" |
Back in the Deri, Jinx says, “It’s always difficult to say goodbye to someone, so Colin wants me to emphasise how grateful he is that you’re all here today to support him and the family.”
 |
| Ffion comes in and sits down |
Ffion slips in and sits down in an empty chair next to Siôn; “Well, there’s only one thing to do, which is finish with a song,” Jinx announces.
 |
| "Yvonne, Gaynor and Colin sang in a group" |
“Yvonne, Gaynor and Colin sang in a group years ago and Britt has agreed to stand in for Yvonne – so that they can reform to perform for the last time. So please welcome . . .”
 |
| "What was it again, Col?" |
He has forgotten the name again, so Colin has to prompt him. “Y Cloriau!”
 |
| "Yvonne's favourite song . . ." |
Colin hopes that he gets through this better than he did earlier; “Now, as a group, we’d like to sing Yvonne’s favourite song, ‘I know you’ll be there, ready to comfort me’.
 |
| "Yspryd y Nos" |
This is ‘Yspryd y Nos’.” [Spirit of the Night]
 |
| Then someone appears . . . |
However, before they can sing the first note,
 |
| . . . and all eyes turn towards the newcomer |
Colin becomes aware of someone who has just walked in through the door of the Deri; he is absolutely astounded to see that it is Yvonne, as are the rest of those present,
 |
| Delyth is disconcerted |
particularly Delyth.
 |
| Yvonne smiles at her brother . . . |
Yvonne smiles at Colin,
 |
| . . . who is absolutely stunned |
who cannot believe that this is actually happening.
