In Chapter 7, Matt takes us all the way back to where it really began and answers a question that's been hanging over the story since the very first mention of Neil Chalk: what actually happened between the twins?

What starts as a simple favour for his brother spirals into something much bigger — a secret that will follow both of them for years and eventually blow apart everything they thought they knew about their family.

There are weddings, funerals, a devastating reveal, a confrontation that changes everything and the single greatest Mollie King laugh ever recorded. By the end of the chapter, the full picture of why Chalk has been acting the way he has finally clicks into place — and it's far more heartbreaking than anyone expected.

Oh, and there's a Big Mouth Billy Bass. Obviously.

Matt and Mollie are writing a novel… together. They alternate chapters in a bid to create a gripping murder mystery. The catch? They have completely different ideas about what the book should be.

Hosted by Matt Edmondson and Mollie King, with ever-patient narrator and referee Steffan Powell, each has just one week to continue the story — reacting, escalating, derailing and occasionally rescuing the plot from the other. Steffan reads the chapters aloud and tries to keep the whole thing vaguely coherent.

What starts as a simple premise becomes a competitive, unpredictable battle of twists, cliffhangers and creative one-upmanship.

Part comedy show, part audiobook, part social experiment — and by the end, there’s a complete original novel, written in real time.

Welcome to the story.
