NEW SERIES We’re really getting spoiled tonight aren’t we! Alison, on the other hand, is being treated less well. The public outing of her ability has led to her and Joe both losing their jobs and, with Devalos off the scene and Scanlon distancing himself, there’s no-one she can turn to when she starts to have visions about a missing boy – until she meets private investigator Cynthia (played by the magnificent Anjelica Huston).
