Vera spoilers

A teaser for the episode shares: “On the night of a massive storm, trying to get home, DCI Vera Stanhope (Brenda Blethyn) comes across an abandoned car with a baby inside.

“With no mobile signal and blocked roads at every turn, Vera is forced to seek refuge somewhere she’d rather not be, Brockburn House, the Stanhope’s ancestral pile. Vera doesn’t exactly receive a warm welcome from her estranged family as there’s a function in full swing and her turning up with a baby isn’t a great look.

“Things start to look even worse and take a far sinister turn when a body is found on the track leading to Brockburn House.”

Vera airs Sunday on ITV1 and ITVX.
