The Barrister from the Crown Prosecution Service interviewed Kirsty Soames when she made a dramatic intervention on the final day of the trial of Tyrone Dobbs for assaulting her. In truth, she had been the abuser of him for many months and had fabricated the allegation against him after she had discovered that his friendship with Fiz Stape, who he had gone to for a shoulder to cry on, had turned into an affair. Kirsty burst into the court with Ruby Soames, their child, admitting the truth of Tyrone's story and saying that she didn't trust herself any more not to hurt Ruby.
