**Contains spoilers on The Couple Next Door season 2 episode 2**
The Couple Next Door season 2 kicked off on Channel 4 last night (Monday 14th July), and viewers (including myself) are already hooked.
The new series centres around heart surgeon Charlotte and her consultant‑anesthetist husband, Jacob, whose seemingly perfect life is interrupted by their new neighbour and nurse at their hospital, Mia (played by Aggy K. Adams).
From the minute she arrived, Mia's behaviour has raised suspicion - from her move to the Leeds from Sweden, to her being able to afford a home on the posh street where her boss lives while on a nurse's salary.
And in episode two, she raised major alarm bells, as one of the patients at the hospital suddenly died, and she showed zero remorse.
So, did she kill the patient?
Here's everything you need to know.
Did The Couple Next Door's Mia kill the patient in episode 2?
As of episode two, it's not clear whether Mia did in fact kill the patient, but all the signs are pointing towards her.
At the beginning of the episode, the patient groped Mia while she was getting him ready for surgery.
"I bet you have all the boys chasing you don't you," he said, before touching her bum.
She left the room in disgust and bumped into Jacob, who had witnessed the whole thing. He tried to check if she was ok, but she stormed off saying that she could handle it herself and she wasn't a child. She later thanked him.
Following surgery, the patient's blood pressure began to fall and his heart rate increased. Mia was the only nurse in the room at that point, with Jacob later entering to see what was up. He pressed the alarm and asked her to assist him with trying to stabilise the patient, but she just froze in the corner. More nurses and doctors rushed into the room to help, but she could be seen in a panic in the corner.
Mia didn't move until the patient was pronounced dead.
"He really wasn't a pleasant man," she said as she left the room.
On her way home, she bumped into Alan (Hugh Dennis) who asked if she'd had a bad day. She told him a patient had died and he said he was sorry.
She replied: "Don't be; he was a sexist perve. I don't think anyone will miss him."
The staff at the hospital were later interviewed by the hospital manager, and one of them mentioned that the patient's death was "unexplained".
"Something wasn't right," he added.
Speaking about Mia, the head nurse said: "You know I would always back my nurses, but Miss Eldegard's response to the death really shocked me.
"Firstly she hesitated when she was asked to help the anaesthetist save his life and I had to take over."
The hospital manager mentioned that situations don't always run smoothly, and the head nurse agreed, however, felt that Mia continued to act suspiciously.
"But afterwards, she acted almost pleased about the patient's death because she'd taken against him. I'd say she was quite cold about it as if justice had been done," she said.
When being questioned herself, Mia said: "No I didn't like that man. He was disgusting."
Asked by the hospital manager if she didn't think other's might find her reaction unusual, she continued: "I did my job properly; I have a clear conscience. I'm sorry I'm not emoting in a sufficiently correct British way for you.
The hospital manager then ordered a post mortem on the patient...
Mia's looking pretty guilty right now!
