Friends, please welcome Della Howells.

I haven't seen him with you before.

- I haven't seen him with you before. - I only met him this morning.

Caleb, I'd like you to meet my mother.

I know, OK?

About your history.

It felt real...

..you and me...

..the most real thing I've felt for a while.

You can get people to do all manner of stupid things...

..when they fall in love with you.

He began to steal things for her from the museum.

Dad was a principled man.

Don't pretend you want to help me.

You've just used me to get what you want.

I haven't quite got what I want yet, Caleb.

GUN SHOT

Dan!

It's OK, it was only an accident.

Do you think the police will see it that way, Della?

I'm sure there's a way of working things out.

Listen, Fioled...

..you'll be dealing with me from now on.

What can I get for you next?

Della?

Della?

You stayed down too long that time.

- You stayed down too long that time. - It's good for you.

It's meant to make you live longer.

- It's meant to make you live longer. - Not if you die in the process.

Why don't you come in?

It's too cold.

Maybe next time.

Are you reading about the legend?

Yeah.

About the woman who emerged from the lake.

That story gets under my skin.

Why's that?

Well, this woman emerging from the water...

..with her powers and her ability to heal people.

Then, all these men she gives birth to...

..get all the credit.

They're known as these important physicians...

..'the Physicians of Myddfai'...

..and she's just forgotten about.

Well...

..when you put it like that.

That's why she had to return to the lake.

Her husband should have been punished, not her.

He hit her, didn't he?

It depends which version you read.

This one says it was a tap on the shoulder.

Yeah, right.

Once accidentally, with horse reins...

..the second time because she cried at a wedding...

..and the last time because she laughed at a funeral.

It still means that he oppressed her.

He tried to tell her how to behave.

Maybe returning to the lake wasn't meant to be a punishment.

Maybe it helped her escape.

PHONE RINGS

Work?

Yes.

I'd better go and show my face.

Shall I see you back at the house?

- Shall I see you back at the house? - Yes, but...

..remember we're going over to Penrhos for dinner.

Do we have to do that tonight?

We've got to make some effort with the neighbours.

We can't hide like a pair of hermits.

Why not?

I enjoy it.

Go and find a bottle to take over to them.

We're lucky to have someone of her calibre here.

She must see some potential in this old place.

A-ha.

Talking about me again, Heddwyn.

Talk of the devil.

Sorry to call you in - I wanted you to meet Glyn.

Glyn - Dr Della Howells.

- Glyn - Dr Della Howells. - Hello.

I hear you've been on holiday.

I had some days to take before the end of the year.

We're all entitled to holidays. Anywhere nice?

Rome - I'm a fan of Caravaggio.

- Rome - I'm a fan of Caravaggio. - Ah.

The Galleria Borghese is one of my favourite places in the world.

Only the Palazzo Barberini does it for me.

This place will soon be just as good thanks to Dr Howells.

We'll see about that, Heddwyn.

I asked to see the storage unit where the Dolaucothi gold is kept.

Heddwyn told me you had the keys.

Yes.

I'm sorry you've had to wait for them.

It's been a little inconvenient, to be honest.

Is there a reason why nobody else has access to the keys?

He knows what I'm like.

I lose my own house keys three times a day, don't I, Glyn?

Right, shall I take you down there?

Great.

Don't tell me the storeroom is always like this.

He insists he knows where everything is.

A photographic memory, apparently.

It isn't where I thought it was, unfortunately...

..but it's here somewhere.

Where did I put that old chest?

Maybe the builders moved it.

I've got a meeting in ten minutes.

You go. I'll find it before long.

Heddwyn said you wanted to curate an exhibition on the gold artefacts.

I think it makes sense.

Dolaucothi is the only Roman gold mine in Britain...

..and it's on your doorstep.

I don't know why you never thought about it yourselves, to be honest.

With all due respect, Dr Howells...

..it's not down to a lack of ambition.

Just a lack of resources.

I don't think we have enough artefacts...

..for an entire exhibition.

- ..for an entire exhibition. - You'd need a blockbuster item.

Any ideas?

Let me speak to the team in Cardiff.

Well, if there's anything I can do to help.

You can begin by helping Heddwyn find the gold that's already here.

The Romans are turning in their graves.

Cal?

Cal?

Are you ready?

I told them we'd be over by six.

Cal?

Don't worry - the bike came off worse than he did.

He's in good hands.

Greta's always glad to find a patient, aren't you?

Caleb!

Are you OK?

I turned too quickly, that's all.

- I turned too quickly, that's all. - I don't think he needs stitches.

What's that stuff?

It's a poultice - Aloe vera and flaxseed.

I always use it.

Mm.

- Mm. - It'll heal faster...

..less inflammation.

Would you like some food?

- Would you like some food? - If Cal is alright to stay.

Of course. I'm starving.

Mm, wow.

The tagine was lovely.

Everything tastes better when you cook it outside.

When I lived in Morocco...

You've been to Morocco, Dad? You never mention it.

Don't be cheeky.

Best time of his life, before he was lumbered with me.

Thanks for offering to do the washing up, Gret.

Anything to avoid listening to you harp on about Morocco.

Children don't speak to their parents like that in Morocco.

Thanks.

More wine?

Yes, please.

Thank you.

Not for me, thanks.

I'll go and help.

- I'll go and help. - There's no need.

It's the least I can do after she helped me.

When will I see some of your work?

Oh, I'm working on something new at the moment.

It's not quite ready yet.

I don't want to jinx it.

Is that your studio?

Greta calls it a man cave.

You do some video work too.

Erm, I try.

I've always been a bit analogue but I need to move with the times.

I'll dry, if you want.

We usually let them dry naturally.

Oh.

OK.

Oh, I brought this back.

The book about the Physicians of Myddfai.

I've got another copy.

Keep it.

- Keep it. - Are you sure?

Thank you.

We're distantly related to them.

Or so my mother used to say.

Did Mick paint that picture of her?

Yes.

That's not how I remember her...

..but that's how he saw her.

It couldn't have been easy...

..to raise her on your own.

- ..to raise her on your own. - Not always...

..but she's turned out well.

Just a bit chopsy.

Who isn't at that age?

You haven't done badly...

..if she's off to study Medicine.

- ..if she's off to study Medicine. - Is that how you measure success?

By the subjects they choose?

Doesn't it show something if they've got ambition...

..or a purpose in life?

I'm not sure if I've ever inspired my children.

Top-up?

Why not?

What happened to her?

Your mother?

I hope you don't mind me asking.

Death isn't taboo for you, is it, Caleb?

It's just a fact of life.

They called it an unexplained death.

How do you explain to a child that there's no explanation?

I'm sorry.

Don't be.

What happened to you is worse.

It's not a competition.

No, I know that...

..but I'm sure your grief is more complex.

You'll have to watch him...

..if you want to keep her.

SHE SCREAMS

We've got to sort that shower out.

It's about to pack up.

I'll take a look at it tonight.

Did you sleep?

- Did you sleep? - Not really.

CAR HORN

They're here, I'd better go.

You don't have to do this job.

If I sit down writing my dissertation all summer...

..I'll go stark crazy.

Anyway, I enjoy the work.

CAR HORN

Has she tied you to the bed yet?

- Has she tied you to the bed yet? - Shut up.

Where are we off?

- Where are we off? - Mrs Protheroe's house.

She only died last week, poor dab.

Her son wants the place cleared by the end of the week.

Some people, honestly.

PHONE RINGS

Hello?

Hello?

Who is this?

Still don't like surprises?

Is Esgair Llaethdy close by?

I think it's the farm next door.

Oh.

That's where the Physicians of Myddfai lived.

Shift it, please. We've got a hell of a lot of work to do.

Yeah, sorry.

Wow.

People around these parts keep everything.

I'm sorry about the delay yesterday.

Things always go haywire when Glyn is away.

You need to employ somebody to sort that archive.

Cuts - what can we do?

- Cuts - what can we do? - This isn't sustainable, Heddwyn.

All that information in one person's head?

It's worked well up until now.

What if you dropped dead?

I'm not planning on going anywhere for a while!

It's tragic, really.

She's kept all her mother's stuff who kept all her mother's stuff.

What for?

Don't you ever keep things?

Out of sentiment?

Life's too short for sentiment, Caleb.

You don't get to take it with you.

What shall I do with this?

Take it out. It can go to the skip.

There used to be a lovely open fire there.

It's probably still under that panel.

I suppose nobody trusted her to light a fire in the end.

If I ever go gaga, shoot me.

I'll write that down.

You and the MILF will have moved away.

Will you stop calling her that?

What am I meant to call her?

- What am I meant to call her? - Della. That's what she's called.

Sorry.

Don't worry.

I prefer chunkier women myself.

I wasn't worried.

Don't you have work to do?

Oh.

Heddwyn.

This is...

You didn't need to worry.

It's incredible.

To think they had all that wealth under their feet...

..and that the Romans came here specially to look for it.

There's something else too.

Something that can help us get that 'blockbuster item'...

..if you can guess the code.

Heddwyn?

- Heddwyn? - It's just a little game.

Come on.

OK, erm...

..it must be a historical date.

Four numbers.

OK, which year?

There are two letters too, just to keep you on your tiptoes.

OK.

AD...

..48.

SAFE CLICKS OPEN

The year the Romans arrived.

The eight-spoked wheel.

I've never seen one up close before.

It refers to the Celtic god of thunder...

..Taranis.

A symbol of strength.

Strength, victory...

..battle...

..it's a wheel of a war chariot.

Are there more?

More were discovered at the time...

..but they were taken to the British Museum.

You know what they're like.

Well, they owe us a favour now.

What do you mean?

PHONE VIBRATES

NICE HOUSE!

Problem?

Erm...

..I've just got to deal with something.

If you could lay the necklace out too that would be great...

..and send me the details of its origin...

..to show the team in Cardiff.

Origin? Of course.

Who hides shoes in a fireplace?

It's an ancient tradition.

They used to hang shoes up to ward away evil spirits.

Don't meddle in those things.

Should I put them back?

It's too late. You'll get seven years bad luck.

I've already had my share.

They were also meant to help if you were trying for a baby.

You know, if a couple found it hard to put a bun in the oven.

Put a bun in the oven!

Take them home with you.

They could bring luck to you and the MI-...

..to you and Della.

But we're not, erm...

CAMERA CLICKS

Hello, Mam.

God! Mags?!

What are you doing here?

Nice to see you too.

Sorry.

You just frightened me, that's all.

I texted you.

I didn't recognize the number.

Shit, sorry. I changed my number.

Why have you done that?

Look, I'm sorry.

It's really nice to see you, darling.

Why don't you come in for a cuppa?

How did you get here?

Hello, Della.

Well, well.

We've gone up in the world, haven't we?

Or down?

I can't quite work it out.

The day before

CHILD LAUGHING

Efa?

CHILD LAUGHING

Efa!

Argh!

Argh!

Caleb?

Are you OK?

Would you like some food?

- Would you like some food? - I'm starving.

I hope red wine is OK. I wasn't sure what meat you'd cook.

It's perfect for lamb, thanks.

Come on.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Have you seen some of Mick's work?

Only what they have in the house.

I'm dying to know what he's got in that shed.

I'm sure you are.

What's that supposed to mean?

Hey!

TURNS SWITCH ON

The electricity's gone again.

Of course it has.

Nothing works in this bloody house.

Are you going to tell me what you meant about Mick?

You've seen the way he looks at you.

That's nonsense.

- That's nonsense. - The thing is...

..I enjoy it.

I enjoy watching him stare at you.

I like the impact you have on people.

What are those?

Nothing.

"For the prevention of dreams."

"Take betony flowers...

.."and place them around your neck...

.."or drink their juice...

.."as you go to rest."

"The leaves of the elder...

.."have serrated margins and grow in five leaflets."

"The two lower leaves..."

"Toadstool...

..or skin lesions."

"Take some of the plant named hedge-hyssop...

.."the crumbs from sourdough bread, and half a spoonful of chamomile.

"Boil them in the surplus of an old drink.

"Mix until the liquid thickens."

"Take half a measure of the juice of the ivy...

.."and half a measure of breastmilk and filter through muslin."

"Take fennel...

.."and white roses...

.."and distil them..."

Caleb!

Good morning.

Good morning.

Hiya.

Can I get a cuppa?

The kettle's on.

Where are you going?

To get fresh air.

Della?

Where are the tea bags?

Oh.

Della?

Give me a second.

I'll be there now.

I'll find them a B&B or something.

You don't have to do that.

They're family.

When it suits them.

You could have bought more milk.

There was enough here for myself and Caleb.

It's always worth having some spare in case somebody calls.

Nobody ever calls.

- Nobody ever calls. - That suits you well, doesn't it?

Fair play.

You found a nice place to hide in.

FOOTSTEPS

Good morning, everybody.

I'm going to get dressed.

Milk and sugar?

Let it stew, I don't like it too weak.

You've landed on your feet.

The house comes with the job.

The museum owns it.

Della's the one working.

I've got a part-time job too...

..while I finish my degree.

You know how you like it.

Black coffee...

..am I right?

Thanks.

Do you mind?

- Do you mind? - Hey, it's your garden.

God, you're really out in the sticks here.

It's nice and quiet.

We like it.

SHE CHUCKLES

What?

Mam used to hate it when Dad booked places like this.

She'd moan about the lack of Wi-fi or shops.

She was incapable of switching off.

People change, don't they?

Suppose.

POURS COFFEE

I'd forgotten how young he looks.

Have you heard from Dan recently?

No.

He's got his own life in London now, hasn't he?

And what about Mags?

Do you think she's got her own life?

Living with her gran...

..while her mother's off galivanting with her toyboy?

OK, Mam.

You haven't come all this way to give me a lecture...

..for being a bad mother.

It was on my list, as it happens.

Don't pretend you haven't seen it.

These are great, Mags.

I've been doing this online course.

They make you delve deeply into your own psyche...

..and find a unique perspective that nobody else could have.

It's a bit nuts, really...

..but I think it's refreshing.

You're allowed to be yourself...

..but you can still hide behind the camera.

You should show them to someone.

As if.

I think I'll go out on the bike this morning. Fancy coming?

I haven't cycled for ages.

Well, it's just like...

..riding a bike.

Had you not pulled Dan into this we'd all be free.

Don't you understand that?

You can't blame me for what happened.

I didn't know he'd follow me there!

I did everything I could to protect him.

I gave Fioled the Rembrandt to keep Dan safe.

Dan doesn't want anything to do with us any more.

I don't blame him.

Poor Mags is suffering more than anyone.

She can't understand what's happened to us all.

I could never tell her what happened with Dan.

OK?

You've got to say something.

It's not my place to say anything. You're her mother.

Oh, yes.

I had such a good role model.

We're in this mess together.

We've got to face it together.

Why are we stopping here?

I know them.

I just want to say hello and thank them for fixing my bike.

I think I'll go back to the house.

No, stay. Please.

I want you to meet somebody.

Hello.

This is Mags, Della's daughter.

Do you mind going to say hello?

She could do with a friend.

Leave it with me.

I've got to go to work, OK?

I could come with you. I'd like to check this place out.

We haven't reopened to the public.

- We haven't reopened to the public. - You can show your mother around.

Well, as she didn't let me know she was coming, I can't.

I've got a busy day ahead.

THANK YOU

You know that book you gave me about the Physicians of Myddfai?

You've found it, haven't you? Catrina's Red Book.

What exactly is it?

It's my mother's version of the Physicians' book.

An improved version.

Don't you want it back?

- Don't you want it back? - Keep it.

Are you a student?

I'm between things at the moment.

Mam-gu wanted to come and nose at Mam's new house.

Just fancied a breather, really.

That place can be suffocating.

Mick?

KNOCK ON THE DOOR

I was wondering when I'd be hearing from you.

I didn't have much choice.

What have you done?

They know, Della...

..and they're coming after us.

Fioled?

Next time...

Sometime I wonder where we'd all be...

..if you hadn't stepped in when you did...

..because we wouldn't be here right now, would we?

Mam, I'd like you to meet someone.

I don't think those gold artefacts were here yesterday.

You think he's stealing?

There are strange people in conservation.

Aren't there just?

Isn't it remarkable?

You shouldn't be here.

There's something weird in the attic.

It's really creepy.

Who burns a photo of a baby?

You're dark, Mags.

Deep down, you're a hard woman.

I'm confident you'll make the right decision, Della.

You're your father's daughter, whether you like it or not.
