Graham implicates Wadsworth in Vicky’s disappearance

Catherine Cawood’s notepad is a critical tool in this interrogation, serving as both a record of Graham Tattersall’s confession and a visual representation of the investigation’s progress. As Catherine methodically writes down Graham’s name, address, phone number, and the damning details of his affair with Amanda Wadsworth, the notepad becomes a tangible symbol of the truth being uncovered. Graham watches her write, his discomfort growing as the evidence of his betrayal is recorded in ink. The notepad’s role is functional—documenting the alibi-breaking information—but it also carries narrative weight, as it marks the moment when John Wadsworth’s involvement in the case becomes official.

Before: Blank or partially filled with earlier notes, carried by Catherine into the interrogation room.

After: Filled with Graham Tattersall’s details, the address (27 Lydgate Avenue, Mirfield), phone number, and the critical admission that ties John Wadsworth to the night of Vicky Fleming’s disappearance. It is now a piece of evidence in the investigation.
