Catégories:

As Chris waits at The Bull for Harrison to turn up, Lilian chats about the ‘Name the Pub Cat’ competition. Chris just hopes they end up with a better name than Prospero! When Will appears with Ed, he gets a frosty reception. Upset Will heads off and Ed tries to explain that Will and Emma did try to make George confess. Ed thinks that as George’s uncle, Chris should be more understanding. But Chris retorts that after everything he did to Alice and Martha, George is no nephew of his.George nervously awaits Alice’s arrival at No.1 The Green, explaining to Will and Ed that he has to face this alone – he’s not a kid anymore. When Alice arrives she explains she’s not there to have a go at George, she’s there to read out her impact statement to him face to face. The prosecutor will read it out in court. George fights back tears as Alice outlines how George’s actions have impacted on her personal life, work and especially her daughter Martha. Because of George, Alice felt like she was on a course of self-destruction. When she finishes, shell-shocked George sobs saying how sorry he is. Alice is gentle but firm telling him she understands what he’s going through – she’s far from perfect. But she advises him to take responsibility for what he did, and if he ends up in prison, to use that time to grab every opportunity he can to put his life back together. He mustn’t let this ruin him. George promises it won’t – he’ll come out of this a better person.
