He told Jake and Angie – now a couple – to leave the country, knowing that his brother would never be able to come back to Scotland with the hit and run charge hanging over him. When Max discovered Sheila’s crimes, he tried to blackmail her into testifying that Jake was the sole driver in the hit and run and he wasn’t involved. On the night Max and Jake ran Walter down, she’d given him a lethal dose. A ‘black widow’ with multiple previous victims, Sheila had been poisoning Walter under the guise of caring for him, to steal his home and money. She was a stranger who’d been promised £20k by Walter’s neighbour Sheila to pose as his niece so that Sheila could swindle the deeds to Walter’s house after his death. There, Jake met and fell for Walter’s American niece Angie.Īngie, however, wasn’t Walter’s niece at all. Max pressured Jake into covering up the crime, and into posing as a friend of the deceased – an old man named Walter who turned out to have been suffering from cancer – at his wake to retrieve potentially incriminatory evidence. Series one revolved around Max and Jake committing a hit and run on their way back from a wedding. Series One: Sheila, Angie, Walter, and the Hit and Run Things are rocky for Jake and Angie (the girlfriend Jake met when she was posing as the niece of Walter, the old man he and Max accidentally knocked down in a hit and run they tried to cover up in series one), and disbarred lawyer/former money launderer Max is still plotting to regain his former wealth. Series three finds the brothers in Chicago, one year on from Max’s transatlantic escape from the Lynches. This final four-episode run caps off an excellent trilogy about good people doing bad things and bad people doing… more bad things. The Scottish comedy-drama from Neil Forsyth ( The Gold, Bob Servant) about brothers Max and Jake McCall returns for series three on Tuesday the 25th of April on BBC Scotland and iPlayer, with episodes airing weekly on BBC Two at 9 p.m.
