Episode 4 of 6

John and Janie investigate a murder in an amateur dramatics group, prompting John to take a role in their next stage production.

Following the murder of coastal town businesswoman and am-dram theatre director Menna Hughes, Janie is eager to solve the case and land the DI promotion she desperately wants. She enlists John’s help, but bristling at Janie’s insinuation that he might have ‘lost’ his acting chops, John takes matters into his own hands and joins the cast of the theatre group’s next play. What starts out as a murder investigation soon becomes a cathartic journey for John, who is unexpectedly reminded of why he fell in love with acting in the first place. As for Janie, witnessing a downtrodden suspect finally stand up for themselves inspires her to confront her own demons from the past.
