Overview
- ITV’s new trailer, released Monday, confirms a court week starting Monday, May 4, with Bear Wolf on trial for murder and Paddy Dingle and Dylan Penders charged with perverting the course of justice.
- The storyline follows a long arc in which Bear was exploited on a farm run by Ray Walters and Celia Daniels and later killed Ray after threats against Paddy and Dylan.
- Promos and previews show emotional testimony from April Windsor and Dylan Penders, a damaging account from fellow victim Simo, and expert evidence from Bear’s counsellor explaining how Ray groomed him.
- Joshua Richards, who plays Bear, says the months‑long arc has been draining and that he is relieved it is nearing its end, calling the workload intense and the material personally taxing.
- Cast and press note the show consulted The Salvation Army and a modern slavery survivor to shape the plot, and the verdicts will not be revealed until the episodes air next week.
