TV&Satellite Week 9

Gary tells Imran he’s to

blame for Rana’s death...

›› Four months after his sabotage

caused the factory roof to collapse,

Gary has a crisis of conscience

and confesses to Imran that he

was responsible for his sister

Rana’s death.

His moment of

truth comes after

a week in which

the pressure

mounts and the

net closes in.

First off, Nick

• considered by
  many a prime
  suspect for the
  tragedy – spots
  himself in one of Beth’s
  photographs taken on the
  morning of the disaster, showing
  he was nowhere near the building.
  Suddenly, it seems he has an alibi.
  Meanwhile, Sarah becomes
  suspicious of her ex when Carla
  tells her she had a ‘dream’ in

hospital in which Gary visited her

and looked through her handbag.

Her suspicions are piqued when

she then questions Gary about the

voicemail he left on her phone, and

she reports him to the police, who

haul him in for questioning.

News spreads, and

when Gary returns to

the cobbles, he faces

the wrath of Peter.

Burdened with

guilt, he calls into

the solicitors’ office

and tells Imran that it

was his fault Rana died.

Does prison now beckon?

NEW FACES

Among the new characters in

this series are Cecily Hanson (Lily

Dodsworth-Evans), the daughter

of a mahogany trader, the rebellious

Tess Tregidden (Sofia Oxenham),

who’s employed at Nampara, and

the impetuous Ned Despard

(Vincent Regan), who needs Ross’

help getting out of prison. ‘Ned

STRONG EMOTIONS

There’s no shortage of

drama for the show’s other main

characters, including George

Warleggan (Jack Farthing), who

struggles to deal with Elizabeth’s

death. ‘He can’t compartmentalise

it and it hits him,’ reveals

Farthing. ‘He goes to some very

dark places.’ Meanwhile, Drake and

Morwenna (Harry Richardson and

Ellise Chappell) have reunited after

the murder of Morwenna’s vile

husband Osborne Whitworth. ‘It’s

not an easy journey for them,’ says

Chappell. ‘They love each other,

but it’s not that simple. Morwenna

must process what’s happened.’

FOND FAREWELL

After four years as Poldark,

Turner says there will be a fitting

send-off for the charismatic

Cornishman. ‘Because it was

the last series, there were lots of

poignant moments – the last time

I got up on a horse, the last time

I put on the tricorn hat,’ he says.

‘But now it’s just great to have

completed it. And it feels nice

not to have to get up at 5am every

morning!’
