A quick jump in the time line and abrupt scene changes can make this episode a little hard to follow, although if you stay with it you should be alright. The story involves a seance that took place five years earlier than the present, with ramifications that occur to the principals who participated in it. As the story progresses, a common link appears to involve the misfortunes of all who attended the seance, with young Edward (Tom Piccin), who witnessed the hit and run death of his mother that precipitated their adversities. The Latin phrase 'Non Omnis Moriar' keeps popping up in various circumstances, and it's translation, 'I shall not altogether die', seems to suggest that death may not visit all of the original seven, though terrible accidents or illnesses are still in play. The principal character from the seance is Frannie Monsanto (Sophie Ward), and her relationship with Oliver Hankin (Nigel Havers) brings her into chilling contact with his son Edward, channeling the evil spirit of a long lost ancestor brought forth by the seance of years ago. With a brief reprieve suggested by the intervention of a Catholic priest (Tony Haygarth), the episode ends with an insinuation that the evil bloodline will be perpetuated with the son of Frannie and Oliver.
