DI Manson comes back with a bang

DI Neil Manson returns from his sabbatical and he's determined to get his team back on track. DC Stevie Moss has to deal with his grumpiness as the pair get to work on a case involving Mark Griffin, who has gone missing on his wedding day after an apparent burglary.

Neil and Stevie suspect that Mark may have been cheating on his fiancee, Jenna Murray, with her best friend and bridesmaid, Kelly Harper. And when a suspicious Jenna sees Kelly leaving Sun Hill after being interviewed, she throws a punch at Kelly - and Neil gets caught in the crossfire.

Later, Neil and Stevie learn that Mark beat up and dumped Darren Blake outside St Hugh's the night before, and Pcs Tony Stamp and Roger Valentine head to the hospital, where they find Darren, bloodied and unconscious. Neil and Stevie call at a gay bar where Darren's partner, Brett Edwards, works and interrupt his Kylie performance.

Waiting for the show to finish, Neil soon realises that they've been hoodwinked - Brett has made a run for it. Neil chases after the Kylie impersonator, much to the amusement of passers by, not to mention Stevie. The question is: can Neil get to the bottom of this one?
