There seemed to be alot of loose ends, I thought. How was the army guy involved with the guy(not good with names) who he was kicking? Was Leanne pregnant with husband's baby? What did Sarah work as? I was very dissatisfied with ending. Who was in the van that drove up and blocked kids view when Leanne disappeared?

I think (but I well not be right as I am also usually confused over such tv dramas),

the soldier mate, the weido bloke and the flower seller were all in cahoots selling black market fags.

Flower seller and weirdo in flower van (selling said fags + flowers). Leanne appears, recognises weido (from connection with her grandfather plus woman carer in home), she goes off on one (cross about selling fags? using gradfathers caravan?), flower seller shoves her, she falls over and bangs head, Flower seller and weirdo freak out, bundle her into van and drive off.

Soldier mate (?) head honcho...met flower seller while in Bosnia and set up contacts.
Met weirdo in army recruitment centre.

whew!! does that make sense??

I think Kyle looked up to the mate, as they both used the gym. The flower seller & Kyle were buying counterfeit cigs together and were both in the layby when Leanne stopped to buy flowers. The flower seller hit Leanne when she started having a go at him because she realised how her grandad was getting the cigs (through Kyle) and she fell to the ground. Kyle though at first she was dead and took her to the caravan and went back to look for the kids. So when he told Rosie & Ethan he would take them to their mum, he was telling the truth. Leanne came round in the caravan and then passed out on the floor. Kyle must have told the mate (Gary?) and he was the one who put her in the water because he thought she was dead, but she was still breathing. (don't know why they didn't just get help, instead of trying to dispose of Leanne).

All rather disappointing.

Fab - I knew there would be a thread on here explaining everything to me. The power of mumsnet again. I have been puzzling since Thurs night about who and why but then I suddenly realised where to look!
