Episode 3: Don't Take My Heart, Don't Break My Heart

Duration: 59 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One HDLatest broadcast: on BBC One Wales

Responding to an emergency call, Holly rushes into The Herald in the early hours of the morning. When the call turns out to be a false alarm, Holly takes the opportunity to talk to Amina about the lead she is following - a former protegee of business tycoon Joshua West has come forward claiming that over a number of years West has been using his position of authority to pressure young women into sleeping with him. Knowing that levelling any charge against a man with West's power will be almost impossible, Amina gives Holly the nod to investigate. As another anonymous source comes forward to Holly and James, pressure on Amina to run the story grows.

Ed travels to Warwick to interview Geoff Newman, a man the media suspect of being involved in a local boy's murder. Ed is irritated to find that Leona is also there, covering the story for The Herald, and the two journalists engage in a competitive tussle that risks losing both of them the story.

Duncan proposes a deal that could make waves in the political world. As both papers go to print, Amina and Duncan make bold moves that could risk their careers. Show less
