After checking in with Lofty and his gran last week, the focus this week was very squarely on Dom and the aftermath of the needle-stick injury he sustained a couple of weeks back. I've retained the whole of his story in the edit below, because it is so closely interwoven with that of him and Lofty, both now and potentially for some time to come. I thought both actors played their scenes beautifully and the introduction of Lofty's sax teacher (played by Paul Clayton) was both an excellent plot device and showed a delightful attention to story continuity (S20:E01).
Synopsis: As the pressure builds from all sides, Gaskell takes a huge risk to save his trial. An unwelcome discovery threatens Dom's career and his relationship with Lofty. Elsewhere, an angry relative puts Fletch's professionalism to the test.
The full episode can be viewed on BBC iPlayer until 7 June 2018 while below, with my apologies to those of the cast who have hit the cutting room floor, is the Dom and Lofty edit. Also a few screencaps...
