According to the blurb for tonight's episode: "Danny (James Nesbitt) goes to confront his old friend and former police partner, Ryan (Sam Heughan).
"Initially, Danny doesn't mention the CCTV footage that proves Ryan was with Christina (Imogen King) shortly before she died.
"But as Ryan becomes pricklier and more evasive in response to his questioning, it becomes too much for Danny and he reveals what he knows, prompting an extremely violent reaction.
"Danny knows Ryan is corrupt, and he starts to suspect that, despite the personal connection between them, Ryan was deeply entangled with Christina and her drug-dealing activities, and may even be responsible for her death, forcing Ryan to provide what appears to be a cast-iron alibi.
