Nathan is in the frame

Searching Nathan’s van, Kit discovers some USB sticks inside. He arrests Nathan on suspicion of breaching his sexual harm prevention order.

Sarah asks Kit what they found in Nathan’s van. He tells her that it’s one of Lauren’s hairs, and suggests that she may have dropped it when planting the evidence. However, he promises not to tell anyone.

DS Swain and Kit set about interviewing Nathan, with Joel present as solicitor.

Elsewhere, Sarah tells Bethany and Daniel how she planned to set Nathan up – and now he’s been arrested. Daniel is furious.

Back in the questioning room, DS Swain tells him that his alibi has changed her mind. She then questions him about his penchant for young girls.

When DS Swain suggests he murdered Lauren, Nathan refuses to comment.
