Devilishly dark story of greed and desire

Sloane - no first name - is sizing up Kath's spare room as a would-be lodger. Jordan Stephens (of the hip-hop duo Rizzle Kicks) gives the mysterious stranger a bold, open smile, and the lonely Kath, played by Tamzin Outhwaite, is like a moth to a flame. "You have the air of lost wealth," she purrs, running what she insists is a motherly leg up his calf.

She's soon straddling him on the chaise longue ("I shall be so ashamed in the morning") and when her brother, Ed, arrives, it is clear that Sloane will wriggle like an eel into his affections too.
