He talks about Faye's baby storyline and how the baby puts extra pressure between Anna and Owen. Owen attacks Craig, who he thinks is Faye's baby's father and then Owen is carted off by the police and has to spend a night in the cells.
Owen is in the doghouse with Anna, but instead of begging for forgiveness from her, he suggests that the baby is put up for adoption.
As they row, Anna tells Owen she doesn't love him any more.
Ian says: "It adds extra poignancy when you realise you're doing this for the last time. There's a collection of rows, and by the time they reach the big one, I think Anna and Owen are exhausted. They part for circumstantial reasons, not because they've actually fallen out of love.
"Owen thinks they can work it out but Anna's not prepared to do that. So maybe he'll go away and realise he could have done more..."
I wonder if when he goes away, he'll be on the first plane to Portugal? And wouldn't this be a great time to bring Eddie Windass back?
