The final series of Happy Valley reached a crescendo during episode four as Catherine Cawood's hunch played out in gripping scenes.

The last five minutes of the latest episode of the hit BBC drama saw major developments in the two storylines, as Rob Hepworth discovered his wife Joanna's body, and Tommy Lee Royce made his great escape.

One fan declared that the show 'makes it impossible to get an early night' as the episode ended with yet another cliffhanger and the prospect of a final showdown between Sarah Lancashire's Cawood and James Norton's Royce.

Episode four saw Tommy getting a haircut and showing off his tattoo dedicated to son Ryan as he headed to court over a gangland murder charge after the victim was discovered by Sergeant Cawood in the opening scene of the series.

Tommy's son Ryan (Rhys Connah) ditched school to sit in court, only for his granddad Richard (Derek Riddell) to also show up, as part of his investigative work into the Kneževićs.

After two of the Kneževićs men provided a distraction outside, Tommy fought his way out of the courtroom, racing through the streets of Leeds.
