It's the finale tonight so there are plenty of issues to be resolved. Dan Kelly's (Dermot Crowley) big secret is out after his heart attack and with RAW closed for business the Kelly sisters are left in limbo. Will he be okay? Emma (Tara Lee) has to work out whether to follow her Dad's wishes and go back to school - despite loving being part of the RAW family.

Unbeknownst to Kate (Kelly Gough), Shane (Keith McErlean) is well aware that she lied to him about trying for a baby, and of her sexy fling with new barman, Chris (Kevin Ryan). Shane's doing the honourable thing by holding his tongue while Dan's ill. But Kate is going to have to face the music sooner or later.

Tony Robinson leads the Team to the village of Beadnell on a beautiful stretch of the Northumbrian coast, to explore an unusual promontory, from which mysterious fragments of human bone have emerged over recent years. Legend ties the site to local seventh-century Saint Ebbe, and it's widely believed that a 13th-century chapel stood here.

This is a classic "one incident, from many perspectives' story. In this case the incident was one of the worst airline ground crashes ever in Ireland's history, when flight NM7100 from Belfast to Cork crashed in thick fog on landing, killing six people. The many perspectives come from a cast of characters who tell a very human, tragic story of loss and near loss, of blame and guilt, of suffering and happiness, of reasons and opinions, of cause and effect. We will hear the heart-wrenching and the unbelievable stories of some of the passengers who survived.
