The initial ending was different it was something to do with Caitlin, Coleman toldVariety.

That fate was avoided for Caitlin though, by writer Cat Jones, and perhaps wisely.

However, having realised the truth, Ember chooses not to confess to crime.

Luckily, she regained consciousness and escaped in time to watch him set himself on fire.

Ember naming Arj as the killer wasnt the only version of that ending either, Coleman toldVariety.

There was a couple of different ways it could go.

But the version that we had on paper was her saying those words.

Again, I think its about sitting in that uncomfortable space and there being no easy answers.

The Jetty is available to stream on BBC iPlayer in the UK
