Births, breakdowns and ballroom dancing, librarian love and legless lust, masochism, murder and sham marriage, it's been a frenetic year on the Chatsworth estate... but it's not quite over yet.

Karen and Joe are holed-up in the shop whilst the spectre of Jamie's revenge looms over them. Joe plots a future away from Chatsworth but Jamie has Connor in hiding and a shell-shocked Karen is going nowhere without her son. Joe uses his dubious contacts and when opportunity knocks he grabs his chance, snatching Connor and dragging his new family away to freedom; little does he know he's carrying unwelcome baggage.
