Fans are likely eager to see certain storylines playing out — especially Mel and Jack’s relationship progressing. After it was revealed that Jack was the father of Mel’s baby, and not Mel’s deceased husband Mark, Jack proposed.
- Martin Henderson, who plays Jack in the series, spoke to Glamour about Season 5. “What I’m hoping in season 5 is actually seeing (Jack and Mel) get closer together through adversity rather than being pushed apart, because I actually think the audiences love that.”
- “You’ve got to have some bumps, but seeing them mature and deepen their love is going to be nice,” Henderson explained.
