Gripping drama.

Kelly (Eva Morgan) tries to make sense of recent events after being disqualified to compete in the gymnastics competition.   

A violent attack on a teenager at an illegal beach rave sends shockwaves of suspicion through a Merseyside Community.

Natalie's plan to secure her daughter Jessica (Sadie Soverall) a spot on the national tumbling gymnastics team comes to fruition, at Kelly's (Eva Morgan) expense.

But Jessica's performance suffers when she faces a backlash from her angry teammates.

An acute anxiety-induced asthma attack should be a wake-up call, but Natalie (Vinette Robinson) sees an unexpected opportunity.

As Natalie's single-minded pursuit of success pushes Jessica further into the arms of Adam (Sonny Walker).

Jessica is forced to make a decision that she can't come back from.
