Robert was on his way to Alison with the manuscript for the book for her. He was sorting out his personal stuff before he died. He was stopped on the way by a swing-bridge that had opened for a boat. He then had some form of health attach and collapsed on the road. An ambulance was called by the driver behind him. The crew arrived and were working on him.
Cut to Alison's house:
Alison is in the kitchen when Robert appears behind. Robert says that he's cut his hand and isn't ready to go. She says that he doesn't have to - stay and have a glass of wine. He says that the book is on the passenger seat of the car. Again, whilst Alison's back is turned Robert disappears as soon as he appears. Alison looks for him and realises that the security chain on the front door is on.
Alison runs out in the street looking for him.
Next Saturday it continues on ITV1.
