The Luck Of The Irish

Episode 4.07 (135)
March 11, 1997
Written by Cassandra Carter
Directed by Kevin Carlin

There are mixed reactions among the Heelers to Chris' sudden wedding announcement. Tom feels that she's rushing into things, a sentiment echoed by Chris' cousin, Dominic, who doesn't approve of Sean, sure that he's just trying to cash in on the Imperial's lucrative business. As Tom does a little digging into Sean's past, he discovers there's no record of him, or his teenage son, Conor, entering Australia. Sean explains away the anomaly with a smile, but Tom isn't convinced.

When Chris starts talking to Maggie about her plans for a huge wedding, Sean seems to be less than enthusiastic, and they argue about their plans. Sean storms out of the pub, but moments later, comes back and apologises — they'll talk about the wedding later. The next day, Sean hasn't returned and Chris is worried. He doesn't know anyone else in the district — where would he have gone? The Heelers try to placate her, but the mystery surrounding Sean deepens.

Chris' fears for his safety are justified when the Heelers discover a body in the cemetery bearing shotgun wounds — it's Sean. An investigation ensues, and Chris discovers the man she was in love with was a stranger to her in many ways. His past is a secret he was trying to escape from, but as the Heelers discover, there are many things that will follow you to the grave.

Meanwhile, Nick and Adam look into a series of complaints of harassment against a Turkish schoolgirl but their job is complicated by her refusal to identify the persons responsible.
