What happened in series one of The Bay?
WARNING: Contains spoilers for series one.
The show kicked off with the DS Lisa Armstrong on a night out where she had sex with local man Sean Meredith in an alleyway.
Then, there was news that local teenagers Holly and Dylan had gone missing – Lisa was assigned to their case and Sean was their dad.
In the background we saw Lisa’s daughter get involved with dealing drugs for local man Vincent.
Lisa’s son Rob was also involved in a dangerous online dare game.
Dylan’s body was found washed up on the beach – and Holly’s bag was found in the sea.
Later, vulnerable adult Nick was accused of knowing what happened to the twins – Sean and his twisted brother-in-law Ryan took him hostage, with Ryan beating him to a pulp.
