What to Read Next
Toyah remains adamant she was right to defend Roy's reputation and to stop the sleuths from desecrating such a special place as Nick's puzzled by her choice of words.
When Nick returns home, he finds Toyah in tears as she reveals that at 19 she gave birth to a stillborn baby girl, she kept it a secret and she buried her in the exact same place in the park that she found the sleuths digging up.
Toyah takes a deep breath and explains to Nick that the baby's father was Phil Simmonds, the man who raped her.
Simon returns home and oblivious to the tension, tells Nick and Toyah that the police are digging up North Cross Park and Bobby reckons they've found a body. Will Toyah find herself in even more trouble?
Meanwhile, in the café, Asha confides in Aadi that she's had a response from the troll behind the video and she's arranged to meet him in the precinct as Aadi offers to go with her.

Roy phones the cafe to wish Nina a happy birthday and Nina makes out that Freddie is fine and assures him that Dee-Dee is doing everything to secure his release.
When Aadi reveals that Amy's charity worker had to pull out of the interview because of a crisis with a vulnerable family, Joel reluctantly offers to help. As Asha arrives at the precinct, there's no sign of Aadi and she tries his mobile repeatedly.
