Transcript

00:00:00You must be very busy.

00:00:20Er, yes, yes, we are at the moment.

00:00:24Er, how's, you know, how's your B&B, is that right?

00:00:27It's fine.

00:00:29I'm, um, not that comfortable just turning up on your doorstep and telling you, though.

00:00:35No, it, um, it rather unsettled me.

00:00:41And, um, I think you ought to know that when I was on secondment to Essex all those years ago,

00:00:49well, my marriage wasn't all that wonderful.

00:00:53Mr. Frost, I know you and my mum didn't have the great romance,

00:00:59but she said that you treated her well, that you're kind.

00:01:05That's often enough, you know.

00:01:06Yeah, I suppose it is.

00:01:10I'm not asking for anything.

00:01:13No, I know you're not.

00:01:16Mum only told me she thought you were my father because she knew she was dying.

00:01:20I'd never have had any hope of finding out otherwise.

00:01:26It took me ages to pluck up the courage to come and see you, yeah?

00:01:32Anna, look, I don't want to shirk my responsibilities in any way,

00:01:38but I think, well, for both our sakes, we've got to be sure.

00:01:46I know, but my mum did think it was you,

00:01:52and I don't see how she can be wrong, can you?

00:01:54Excuse me, madam.

00:02:15Security have asked me to question you about some goods you haven't paid for.

00:02:18What? I'm sorry.

00:02:21Detective Inspector Frost, Denton CID.

00:02:24I'm afraid I'm going to have to search you.

00:02:27You can't do that. I haven't done anything.

00:02:30Then you'll have to come down to the station

00:02:31to be strip-searched and interviewed.

00:02:34Now, which is it to be?

00:02:37You're keeping me busy, Inspector.

00:02:39Yes.

00:02:40Well, I don't want you forgetting how to carve the Sunday roast, do I?

00:02:44Have you got any news over my dead Dr. Gibson?

00:02:48She wasn't sexually assaulted.

00:02:50All right, what killed her?

00:02:52I blew her head.

00:02:54I see.

00:02:55And a sword of weapon?

00:02:58How does blunt instrument sound?

00:03:00Pretty predictable.

00:03:02Probably something like a rough-edged rock.

00:03:06Found traces of dirt in the wound, which would indicate she was killed outside.

00:03:09Do we know the time of death yet?

00:03:14Roughly.

00:03:15I'd say there was a struggle.

00:03:16Oh, yeah.

00:03:17Rigor mortis still isn't a good gauge, but it speeds up after violent exertion.

00:03:22As far as I can tell, she'd be dead 24, maybe 30 hours.

00:03:25What's that, then?

00:03:27Saturday morning?

00:03:28Yes, well, that would make sense, wouldn't it?

00:03:31Oh, anyway.

00:03:32Oh, anything?

00:03:33Oh, no.

00:03:33There's nothing obvious.

00:03:37Locked drawer over there.

00:03:54I see.

00:03:57Mrs Royden, isn't it?

00:03:59That's right.

00:03:59I'm Detective Inspector Frost.

00:04:01How do you do?

00:04:02Righty dear.

00:04:03Dr Gibson's schedule, you know, operating times, war drowns,

00:04:08time she came in, time she left, that sort of thing.

00:04:11Do you think you could get it for me?

00:04:13Yes.

00:04:14I understand that she wasn't in on Friday.

00:04:17No.

00:04:17Is that usual?

00:04:18No.

00:04:19But if she wasn't scheduled for an operation,

00:04:22she's sometimes caught up with paperwork at home.

00:04:23I see.

00:04:24Have you got a key for this drawer?

00:04:25No, only Dr Gibson has this.

00:04:27If you've got the knack...

00:04:30You don't need one.

00:04:34Oh.

00:04:35Now, is there any reason why she would have that locked up?

00:04:39No.

00:04:40She was at a symposium last week.

00:04:42She may have picked it up there.

00:04:48I see.

00:04:51I'm going over to see Jameson,

00:04:53the hospital manager.

00:04:55I want you to go over to the mortuary area.

00:04:58Check out those waste disposal bins, will you?

00:05:00All right.

00:05:01Now, look, I've...

00:05:02I found this.

00:05:04She was using that as a page mark,

00:05:06if, you know, if that's what it was.

00:05:08Well, it's Dr Retnick's resignation.

00:05:10Exactly.

00:05:11He's one of her surgical team.

00:05:12Yeah, I know, but last time I spoke to him,

00:05:15he said he was very happy to be here.

00:05:18No, word has it she got on everyone's wick.

00:05:21Stuffed up a dozen people's careers.

00:05:23No personal life to talk of.

00:05:24Well, they say that not enough sex makes you irritable.

00:05:28Well, someone told.

00:05:33Question you yet, have they?

00:05:35I was told Inspector Frost wanted to meet me here.

00:05:37Maybe she's run off with a secret lover,

00:05:39never to be seen again.

00:05:41Well, it'd certainly make life a lot easier around here, wouldn't it?

00:05:43I can't make the connection.

00:05:47Oh, come on, Jameson.

00:05:48She fought your cut to tooth and nail.

00:05:50Now you don't have anyone to stand up to you.

00:05:52I'm not going to discuss hospital business with you.

00:05:56And with the inquiry into the post-operative death,

00:05:58to which we now add the Ingram boy,

00:05:59it's all rather convenient.

00:06:01What's the word I'm looking for?

00:06:03Scapegoat?

00:06:04You don't look exactly heartbroken.

00:06:07Me?

00:06:07God, no.

00:06:08That damn woman's stopped my career prospects good and proper.

00:06:11Oh, no.

00:06:12Good riddance.

00:06:13That's what I say.

00:06:13If you ask me, you should interrogate Retnick.

00:06:20Are you suggesting there are suspicious circumstances

00:06:23surrounding her disappearance?

00:06:25No, I didn't mean that.

00:06:27I don't know what I meant.

00:06:30He's a Serb.

00:06:31Did you know that?

00:06:32Oh, I see.

00:06:35You know, picking on the underdog always tends to get up my nose.

00:06:39I don't know why.

00:06:40Maybe the words bullying and prejudice spring to mind.

00:06:43Anyway, you were the one that employed him.

00:06:45She employed him.

00:06:47It's her recommendation.

00:06:48He'd been working as a surgeon in an international aid agency.

00:06:51What do you mean?

00:06:52Saving lives rather than taking them.

00:06:53Tell me, do female surgeons join foreign doctors on your list of dislikes?

00:07:01There were very few occasions when Helena and I needed to meet, even here at the hospital.

00:07:06And we didn't socialise.

00:07:08Look, I'm sorry, Inspector.

00:07:10I simply don't know where she is or why she's gone missing.

00:07:15Er, excuse me.

00:07:17What about this internal investigation into post-operative deaths?

00:07:22How do you know about that?

00:07:24It's my job.

00:07:25I listen at keyholes.

00:07:27Denton General is below average in national clinical indicators.

00:07:31What?

00:07:32Hospital death league tables.

00:07:35Oh, so hardly the lottery you'd want to win, is it?

00:07:40Obviously, we don't want people thinking her absence and the internal investigation in any way connected.

00:07:46Conspiracy theories are always flavour of the month.

00:07:50And I need that information to help me with my investigation.

00:07:53I'm, er, I'm going to pick up some extra shifts.

00:08:02Might work.

00:08:04Aren't my days long enough already?

00:08:23Jack, hold on.

00:08:25Lawrence Dale Brewer.

00:08:27What, Larry the barrel?

00:08:28That's him.

00:08:29Got out four years ago.

00:08:31We did him for impersonating a customs and excise officer.

00:08:35I think he's the one impersonating you.

00:08:37Now he's too fat.

00:08:38Now I spoke to the screw who worked his wing.

00:08:41It seems Larry didn't take to HMP Grub.

00:08:44Shed his weight.

00:08:46Well, I'll be blown.

00:08:48Hey, keep this under your hat.

00:08:49We can flog this idea to Weight Watchers.

00:08:51Oh, Larry the barrel.

00:08:53Best bet we've got so far, Jack.

00:08:55Yeah, yeah, oi, just a minute.

00:08:56What are you up to?

00:08:58Oh, someone turning over corner shops.

00:09:00I'll keep as much of it off your desk as I can.

00:09:02All right, thanks, George.

00:09:14I've said all I'm going to say.

00:09:16Mr. Brendan, this is more than just a couple of kids wrecking the place for a laugh.

00:09:21There's at least another five shops in Denton who have had the same treatment.

00:09:26And half a dozen more on the edge of town.

00:09:28Then go and speak to them.

00:09:29Tell them.

00:09:31Keep quiet, Jennifer.

00:09:33It's been getting worse.

00:09:34This is the third time.

00:09:36Only this time, they hit him.

00:09:37I said that's enough.

00:09:39You don't know anything about it.

00:09:40I know that they hurt you.

00:09:42To my way of thinking, Mr. Brendan, this sounds like a protection racket.

00:09:46You pay them or they pay you a visit.

00:09:49Does the name Robbie Jensen mean anything?

00:09:52This is her.

00:10:16DS Reed's military record.

00:10:18Right, thank you.

00:10:20OK.

00:10:21Now, Ernie, about 18 years ago, I was working on a fraud job in Essex.

00:10:29It was a shipping company.

00:10:30Don't remember that one.

00:10:31Yes, you do.

00:10:31Horizon Containers, they were called.

00:10:33No.

00:10:34I need my notes on that job.

00:10:37I need to know where I was and when.

00:10:40Well, it won't have been archived into the computer.

00:10:42It'll be buried.

00:10:43This is personal.

00:10:46Personal?

00:10:47Yeah.

00:10:49All right.

00:10:53Now, listen, Jack.

00:10:55I think I'm going to need your help with these corner shops being turned over.

00:10:59What?

00:10:59Some kids nicking sweets?

00:11:01No, no.

00:11:02It's a bit more than that.

00:11:03It's about a dozen shops in the past couple of weeks.

00:11:06There's nothing stolen.

00:11:07Some assault.

00:11:09No one's saying anything.

00:11:11Sounds like a protection racket to me.

00:11:13Exactly.

00:11:14That's what I thought.

00:11:15But I can't pin it down.

00:11:17One name has come up, though.

00:11:19A partial identification.

00:11:21Robbie Jensen.

00:11:22We just can't find him.

00:11:24No, I don't know the name.

00:11:26He's a sometime doorman on the clubs.

00:11:28What?

00:11:29Got some form, has he?

00:11:30Well, he likes to use his fists.

00:11:32I was investigating illegal rave parties when I was at Edmund Street.

00:11:36We thought they were shifting a fair bit of ecstasy.

00:11:39Do you get him?

00:11:40No, he didn't have the brains to organise it.

00:11:42Now, it's somebody using him.

00:11:44Yeah, we thought the bloke behind it all was a Tim Hamilton.

00:11:47He was organising everything out at abandoned warehouses.

00:11:51He lives out of that posh estate in the north end of town.

00:11:54Solicitor's son.

00:11:55Arrogant little sod.

00:11:57Oh, what?

00:11:58Bored at boarding school, so goes out and get up to mischief?

00:12:02Yeah, something like that.

00:12:04University.

00:12:05We had to drop the case.

00:12:06His father climbed all over us.

00:12:09Really?

00:12:10You got his address?

00:12:12Yeah.

00:12:12I think a polite inquiry might not go amiss.

00:12:18You got time?

00:12:19Come on, we'll make time.

00:12:21Ah, no, no, no.

00:12:22Not you, Reid.

00:12:24If you've already had a run-in with this Hamilton,

00:12:27I don't need you to provoke him.

00:12:29I can do that myself.

00:12:32Yeah, all right, Gov, but keep your hands in your pockets.

00:12:35You'll be tempted to clock him, won't you?

00:12:37What, me?

00:12:38Never.

00:12:38Ah, Mr. Hamilton.

00:12:52Yes?

00:12:52Detective Sergeant Toulon, Denton CID.

00:12:55Detective Inspector Frost.

00:12:57I wonder if you can help us, sir.

00:12:58We're trying to trace the whereabouts of a Mr. Robbie Jensen.

00:13:01So?

00:13:02Well, do you know where he is?

00:13:03I've never heard of him.

00:13:05Oh, now, come on, don't let's get off on the wrong foot, son.

00:13:07I know that you know him

00:13:08because he's done a few things for you in the past.

00:13:10Well, he's an errand boy.

00:13:11He lives on a council estate somewhere.

00:13:13They like to think they're part of the action.

00:13:15Well, like rave parties?

00:13:17Look, we've been through this months ago.

00:13:19I don't know where he is, so just chill out, yeah?

00:13:20All right, thank you.

00:13:24Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Hamilton.

00:13:27Hmm, chill out indeed.

00:13:30All right, see if you can find this slug, Robbie Jensen.

00:13:34It's probably hiding in a dark hole somewhere.

00:13:37All right, let's get on my body.

00:14:03There, we've got another shipment in it.

00:14:12Yeah?

00:14:14Okay.

00:14:15If you want this thing done right,

00:14:17I'm going to have to start hurting people.

00:14:18Oh, all right, yeah, thank you.

00:14:30Have you got any kids?

00:14:33Yeah, two.

00:14:36My mother took them away a couple of years ago.

00:14:39She's remarried.

00:14:40I mean, yeah, I'll see them when I can.

00:14:44They're great kids.

00:14:46Not easy, though, I suppose.

00:14:49Well, I don't blame her.

00:14:51Kind of being very pleasant being with a bloke who's in a mess, huh, was it?

00:14:56I went over the edge.

00:14:58It was scary.

00:14:59I don't know.

00:15:02I get scared witless sometimes in this job.

00:15:09Well, there's no such thing as heroes, Giff.

00:15:12As far as I can see.

00:15:13No, you just get frightened enough or angry enough to do what has to be done.

00:15:22I just had to face this idiot with a gun.

00:15:27Oh, I'd had plenty of this, and, well, my marriage was on the rock,

00:15:31so I thought, well, we've got nothing to lose.

00:15:33Well, quite the same as what you did, though.

00:15:40Now, I've read your file.

00:15:48Fear is fear, Governor, no matter what.

00:15:51Yeah, I know, but I suppose what I'm saying,

00:15:53there are different kinds of fear, though, aren't there?

00:15:56I mean, I've just...

00:15:58Well, I've just had something quite scary happen to me.

00:16:01I mean, someone, well, told me something

00:16:05about something that I might have been responsible for 20-odd years ago.

00:16:14And then that sent a chill down my spine.

00:16:18Do you know what I mean?

00:16:20Yeah.

00:16:25Do you know the most frightening thing anyone said to me?

00:16:31Fixed bayonets.

00:16:47Yes.

00:16:48Well.

00:16:53Can I give you a lift?

00:16:54Uh, no thanks, Governor.

00:16:56I'm, uh, going to check out a couple of pubs.

00:16:59See if I can find the bloke who sold me those duff fags.

00:17:02Yeah, all right.

00:17:05Thanks, Mr Frost.

00:17:08It's all right.

00:17:09Forget it.

00:17:33Oh, my God.

00:18:03We were on patrol when we saw a couple of kids running out of the public toilets.

00:18:09When they saw us, they dropped this.

00:18:11It's DS Reeds, I'm afraid.

00:18:13They stripped his wallet, chucked away the wine card.

00:18:16Medics say it's touch and go.

00:18:18Oh, thanks.

00:18:18Bring it.

00:18:19Can you hear me?

00:18:20You'll be all right.

00:18:21You're all right, son.

00:18:23You're going to be all right.

00:18:23You hang on in there.

00:18:25Don't you give up on me, son.

00:18:26Don't you give up.

00:18:33Naturally, we hope that he overcomes the injuries sustained in this assault.

00:18:52But it appears that DS Reeds had a drug habit that he'd managed to keep hidden.

00:18:59Now, this will throw the public and the media spotlight onto us all.

00:19:01And Miss Redmond here will have her hands full with the press.

00:19:06Another rotten apple, another crooked copper.

00:19:10That's how the press will present this whole shameful affair.

00:19:14An officer with a drug problem sneaking into a public toilet to feed his habit.

00:19:20Bringing disgrace on the service.

00:19:24Excuse me, sir.

00:19:25May I?

00:19:26I've just come from the hospital where DS Reeds is on the critical list.

00:19:34Now, before we condemn a long-serving officer, I do think we ought to give him the benefit of the doubt, don't you?

00:19:40I'm dealing with facts.

00:19:42I think not.

00:19:45Miss Redmond.

00:19:45These are the facts.

00:19:50Twenty years ago in the Falklands, Terry Reid went up a mountainside with a bayonet on the end of his rifle because other young men, like himself, were being cut down by machine gun fire.

00:20:03And because he did the business, they gave him a military medal for courage above and beyond.

00:20:13His background is irrelevant to this matter, Inspector.

00:20:15Not at all.

00:20:16I think it's very relevant, sir.

00:20:20Does anyone in this room who thinks they know anything about courage had better think again?

00:20:25Yes, Reid's got problems.

00:20:28He's got very big problems.

00:20:30But knowing those problems, and trying to shape his life, I mean, that's courage.

00:20:38Yeah, that's enough, Inspector.

00:20:39No, it's not enough, sir.

00:20:42And before anyone in this room kicks a man while he's down, I want to assure you that DS Reid was not, and I repeat, not doing anything illegal yesterday.

00:20:55And I will stake my career on that.

00:20:59And let me just say this.

00:21:02I think it's disgraceful the way you're treating a real bloody hero who's got on with his life and never quit.

00:21:12Yeah, yeah.

00:21:16In my office.

00:21:17I won't be challenged in such a manner by you or anyone else.

00:21:27And I will not stand by while a senior officer condemns a fellow officer without substantial proof.

00:21:33Look, Reid was assaulted and robbed whilst paying for drugs.

00:21:36His wallet wasn't missing, just everything in his desk, and so was his military medal.

00:21:40Addicts sell anything to feed their habits.

00:21:42Oh, don't give me that.

00:21:43Reid would never sell that medal.

00:21:45That's the only thing that holds him together.

00:21:46That's enough.

00:21:47A damn good officer's reputation has been maligned in front of his colleagues.

00:21:51That's not what the doctors say.

00:21:53He's on methadone, and here's a report that he's left up his room where it appears...

00:21:55You're presuming to judge him guilty before anyone else has seen the facts.

00:21:58Where it appears you assured officers...

00:21:59If you had listened to his record, and not what you think has happened, you don't know what he was doing.

00:22:04That's enough.

00:22:07I know he was working on a case.

00:22:08Enough!

00:22:09I expect an apology from you, Inspector.

00:22:17In writing.

00:22:20Yes.

00:22:23And just for the record, sir, when I establish exactly what happened to D.S. Reid,

00:22:30I'm sure that you will be prepared to offer the same unequivocal apology to him.

00:22:35That's all, Inspector.

00:22:51If there's anything I can do to help, let me know, Jack.

00:22:55Thanks, George.

00:22:55There is.

00:22:57Look.

00:22:58Get sniffing around.

00:23:00See if you can find Reid's medal.

00:23:02We'll find that, and we'll find the bloke who did him over.

00:23:05I'll start with the pawnbrokers.

00:23:07All right, yes.

00:23:08And tell them I want it done by the book, and let us know.

00:23:11I'll personally guarantee they won't be out of pocket.

00:23:13In the meantime, we'll get on with what we have to do.

00:23:18There's been a fair bit of rain in the past few days, so there's not much to go on.

00:23:23Now, we do know that she was at work on Saturday.

00:23:26She also got a house in the centre of town.

00:23:29Doubtful that she had time to go anywhere else.

00:23:31Well, let it be.

00:23:33But see here, Jack.

00:23:35The tyres are clean, but there's specks of mud trapped in here.

00:23:39Red clay.

00:23:41Now, there's a band of soil with a talk seam of clay running through it in two areas around here.

00:23:45The local farmers call it Denton Red.

00:23:50I, er, I've marked the areas for you.

00:23:53Can you tell how recently the car was in this area?

00:23:56Definitely in the last couple of days.

00:23:58And that's not all.

00:23:59Darren, thank you.

00:24:00There's a smear of the same stuff inside, almost like a scuff mark.

00:24:12And there's another one just like it on the back carpet as well.

00:24:16Yeah, but what made it?

00:24:17Well, that I can't tell you.

00:24:19And I thought all you blokes practised the black arts.

00:24:23Oh, only when there's a full moon.

00:24:24How's Terry Reid doing?

00:24:41It's too soon to tell.

00:24:42I'm sorry.

00:24:44Oh, thank you.

00:24:44Is Reid your man?

00:24:51Yes.

00:24:52Yes, he is.

00:24:53He's not my patient, but I'll make sure they keep you up to date.

00:24:56All right.

00:24:57You wanted to see me?

00:24:58Yes.

00:24:59Yes, I do.

00:24:59There are a lot of doctors here.

00:25:06All right.

00:25:07We work all hours.

00:25:09Please.

00:25:10We live on canteen food and takeaways.

00:25:14All right.

00:25:15Don't worry about that.

00:25:16It's like home from home for me.

00:25:18Coffee?

00:25:18Yes, please.

00:25:20Milk on sugar.

00:25:23Um, now we've established that Dr. Gibson went missing on Saturday.

00:25:30Could you tell me where you were?

00:25:32I was at a surgical procedures lecture.

00:25:36Hmm.

00:25:37Any witnesses?

00:25:39About 60.

00:25:40I was on the platform as a panel member to answer questions from 9 to 5.

00:25:44I did the main lecture, go back to the hospital that evening, and attended to an emergency admission.

00:25:51And that will all be documented.

00:25:52Hmm.

00:25:53Hmm.

00:25:55Earlier, you said you liked Dr. Gibson.

00:25:58Yes.

00:26:00You seem to be the only one.

00:26:02I first met her in Kosovo in a camp that treated both sides of the conflict.

00:26:06She was a volunteer surgeon for two months.

00:26:10Generous and brave, eh?

00:26:12Dedicated.

00:26:12Nothing was allowed to stand between her and her work.

00:26:17I have to get back to my patients.

00:26:19Yes, of course.

00:26:22Oh, one more thing, Dr. Retnick.

00:26:25Why did you resign?

00:26:28Resign?

00:26:29Yes, I found your letter of resignation in Dr. Gibson's desk.

00:26:35Oh, yes, yes, of course.

00:26:36I forgot.

00:26:37And she refused to accept it.

00:26:39I wanted to move to a smaller hospital.

00:26:41Better career move.

00:26:42She took me out of it.

00:26:43Hmm.

00:26:44She must have had a lot of faith in you.

00:26:47Yes.

00:26:48I suppose she did.

00:26:48Good afternoon, Jack.

00:26:56Oh, good afternoon.

00:26:58I'm not so sure that I want to see you.

00:27:01Don't shoot me.

00:27:02I'm just the messenger.

00:27:02Oh, good tidings, I hope.

00:27:05Well, 18 years and five months ago, to be precise, for the Essex job, I found it.

00:27:11Those are the dates you were seconded, and those are the dates you claim for expenses, and those are your personal notes.

00:27:24Oh, I didn't realise I didn't realise I was there so long.

00:27:27Time flies when you're having fun.

00:27:29There are times when I wish that you weren't so thorough.

00:27:34Nothing untowards, I hope, Jack.

00:27:35No, no.

00:27:36Well, I suppose it could be quite good.

00:27:41Anyway, thanks.

00:27:43I appreciate this.

00:27:44That's OK.

00:27:45Oh, hello, George.

00:27:46Hello, mate.

00:27:47Jack, any news on Reid?

00:27:52Oh, critical.

00:27:53But he's stable.

00:27:57George, about this hospital thing, I can't work it out.

00:28:04Everyone who was associated with that Dr. Gibson has got an alibi for Saturday.

00:28:10I mean, even she was in the wards taking patients' notes an hour before the waste truck arrived.

00:28:16So what's your point?

00:28:19Well, whoever killed her had to wrap her in plastic, put her in a plastic bag, get the bag into a wheelie bin, get the wheelie bin from wherever it was, right across the hospital, to where the waste is picked up, all in under an hour.

00:28:38It couldn't be done.

00:28:41Anyway, have a look at this.

00:28:44Colby's company brochure.

00:28:46Look at the small print on the back.

00:28:48List of company directors.

00:28:50One happens to be the hospital manager's wife.

00:28:54Jameson.

00:28:56Conflict of interest, maybe.

00:28:58Yeah, very big, maybe.

00:29:00Especially when there's a lucrative waste contract on offer.

00:29:04Yes?

00:29:07James Ingram, sir.

00:29:09Yeah, well?

00:29:10He's a paramedic.

00:29:11He works at the hospital all the time.

00:29:13Is he?

00:29:15Well, well, well.

00:29:17Who better to wheel a body into a mortuary than a paramedic?

00:29:23That's what I thought too, sir.

00:29:26Oh, did you?

00:29:27Yes, sir.

00:29:29Mr Mullet told me, as you're short-handed, I was to attach myself to you.

00:29:33Oh.

00:29:34And that gives you the go-ahead to start thinking, does it?

00:29:37I've already started making inquiries about Ingram's off-duty activities, sir.

00:29:43I'll get on to his background first thing tomorrow.

00:29:45No, no, no, Prentice, no.

00:29:47You will get on to it tonight and give me the information first thing tomorrow.

00:29:52Good idea, sir.

00:29:53I was only going to study tonight anyway.

00:29:55Yeah, well, what you don't know, you won't miss, will you?

00:29:59Goodbye.

00:30:05He's learning.

00:30:11Is your friend badly hurt?

00:30:14Uh, yes.

00:30:16I'm sorry.

00:30:17Well, he's tough, though.

00:30:19You know, that helps.

00:30:20Oh, I thought you should have done this.

00:30:33Why not?

00:30:34It was the last time you ever had a picnic.

00:30:37Anyway, it's my birthday.

00:30:40Oh, it isn't, is it?

00:30:43And, um, I'm sorry.

00:30:46You won't know.

00:30:48Thanks.

00:30:50It's Italian.

00:30:55Lots of different tastes.

00:30:57Right.

00:30:58Not a spaghetti, sir, is it?

00:30:59Not quite as messy.

00:31:01No.

00:31:04Hmm.

00:31:04Oh.

00:31:06Here, hang on.

00:31:10Well.

00:31:14And I...

00:31:15I just want you to know that...

00:31:18You know, your mother and I had a great relationship.

00:31:23You know, she was a lot of fun.

00:31:25I just wish that she'd told me about you.

00:31:30Mum was always independent, wasn't she?

00:31:33I don't know.

00:31:34Maybe she didn't want to share me.

00:31:37Yeah.

00:31:38Never thought of that.

00:31:39Women don't always want men cluttering up their lives, do they?

00:31:46No, I suppose not.

00:31:49Vice versa, too.

00:31:50You wouldn't be cluttering up my life.

00:32:02I just want you to know that.

00:32:03I just want you to know that.

00:32:03They want us to sell their cheap cigarettes.

00:32:32Instead of our regular stock.

00:32:35And these cigarettes will either be stolen or illegally brought into the country.

00:32:40My husband doesn't want to break the law.

00:32:43But this man...

00:32:44This...

00:32:46Is it Robbie Jensen?

00:32:49This man...

00:32:51He's going to hurt us.

00:32:53Don't tell my husband I came here.

00:32:55Mrs. Brendan.

00:33:00I have a colleague, a police officer, who's been seriously assaulted.

00:33:05I think that from what you've been telling us here, that it's possibly the same people.

00:33:12So if you could give us a name, please.

00:33:15I'm sorry.

00:33:21Reid.

00:33:24He was sniffing out someone selling illegal fags in pubs.

00:33:28Tell me there's not a connection.

00:33:30Here.

00:33:52Get the lid off this, will you?

00:33:54My hands ain't as good as I used to be.

00:33:56Blackberry and apple.

00:34:02My daughter brings it in for me.

00:34:04And the nurses keep it in there.

00:34:05Oh, yeah.

00:34:06There you go.

00:34:11That's not bad, is it?

00:34:14Your mate in there, is it?

00:34:16Yes.

00:34:17Yeah, that's right.

00:34:17Look, if they stick him in the M bed, he's a goner.

00:34:22It's where they've all been dying.

00:34:24Bed five.

00:34:26Yeah.

00:34:26Have the hop.

00:34:28Into intensive care.

00:34:30Woof.

00:34:30Stone dead.

00:34:32Bed five?

00:34:33Yeah.

00:34:35Well, if they shift him in there, I'll get them to give you a call,

00:34:38cos he'll be a goner.

00:34:39Sure as eggs is eggs.

00:34:40Yeah, well, you do that.

00:34:46Hey!

00:34:47Huh?

00:34:48You want to watch the sell-by date on these things?

00:34:51Oh, it's a load of rubbish.

00:34:53You buy them cheaper this way and keep them in the fridge,

00:34:55they last longer.

00:34:57Look, I don't think she was killed on Saturday.

00:35:01Don't confound science, Inspector.

00:35:03It means extra work.

00:35:06You're here to cause me grief, I can tell.

00:35:08No, no, no.

00:35:10Listen.

00:35:10Just listen.

00:35:12Supposing, just supposing she was killed earlier,

00:35:15and the killer discovers that the hospital incinerator has broken down.

00:35:21So, he's caught short.

00:35:23No quick way to dispose of the body.

00:35:25Right.

00:35:26So, he stores the body in the cauldron in the mortuary.

00:35:31Right?

00:35:32Now, what would happen?

00:35:36Ambient temperature dictates the rate of decay to slow down decomposition.

00:35:41Ambient temperature dictates the rate of decay to slow down the mortuary.

00:35:42I don't know.

00:35:43I don't know.

00:35:44I don't know.

00:35:45I don't know.

00:35:46I don't know.

00:35:47I don't know.

00:35:48I don't know.

00:35:49I don't know.

00:35:50I don't know.

00:35:51I don't know.

00:35:52I don't know.

00:35:53I don't know.

00:35:54I don't know.

00:35:55You blamed Dr. Gibson for your son's death.

00:36:00She killed him, just like the others.

00:36:03The others?

00:36:03Oh, come on.

00:36:05For God's sake, haven't you dug that out yet?

00:36:07There's an inquiry going on.

00:36:09Five post-operative deaths in as many months.

00:36:12Something went wrong with my son's operation.

00:36:15Of course she killed him, one way or another.

00:36:18A ward nurse said that you visited your son late Thursday night.

00:36:24Yeah.

00:36:24Did you see Dr. Gibson?

00:36:28Look.

00:36:30I saw it in the corridor, right?

00:36:32I asked her if anything had gone wrong during the operation.

00:36:35She assured me Michael would be fine.

00:36:37Farmers says he saw a blue Vauxhall Cavalier parked in one of his fields.

00:36:42A bloke releasing pigeons.

00:36:44So what?

00:36:45Dr. Gibson's car was seen in that area.

00:36:50All right, go on.

00:36:51Come on.

00:36:56Admit it, Ingram.

00:36:59You were there.

00:37:02Look, I went out there on Friday.

00:37:04The day your son died?

00:37:08You wouldn't understand.

00:37:12Who told you who saw me?

00:37:14Farmer couldn't have.

00:37:16Oh, the bloke who runs the hospital, was it?

00:37:20Jameson?

00:37:20Ah, yeah, that's him.

00:37:22Yeah, he drove past.

00:37:23Maybe he saw me.

00:37:25Anyway, it doesn't matter.

00:37:26I haven't done anything wrong.

00:37:29Sir!

00:37:29Yes, what is it?

00:37:36Sir!

00:37:38Well, well, well, well, well, well.

00:37:41That doesn't look very nice, does it, Mr. Ingram?

00:37:44Are you sure there isn't something that you want to tell us?

00:37:48Jim!

00:37:48Well, it's blood.

00:37:51I hit a fox when I was driving out there.

00:37:54Its back was broken.

00:37:55I had to finish it off.

00:37:57Look, I didn't tell you because I didn't want to upset you.

00:38:00You didn't think about upsetting me the day my Michael died?

00:38:03Just going off to fly your bloody pigeons?

00:38:06Leaving me here alone?

00:38:08Just leaving me?

00:38:09Look, look, sorry, love.

00:38:10I had to get out of the house.

00:38:11I had to do something.

00:38:13But you didn't do anything for me.

00:38:14Mr. Ingram, I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to come down to the station to answer

00:38:22a few more questions.

00:38:24Prentice, get a woman constable out to the house and bag those jeans up as well.

00:38:31Sir.

00:38:33All right, look, you can talk to me as much as you like.

00:38:36But please leave my wife alone.

00:38:39She's not coping.

00:38:41Michael was her only child.

00:38:42If you've got kids, you'll know what I mean.

00:38:52A result, Jack?

00:38:54Mm.

00:38:54Oh, James Ingram.

00:38:57I had to bring him in until he checked out some bloodstains we found.

00:39:01Did you?

00:39:02Uniform dugout Robbie Jensen.

00:39:04Ah, like a rat in a hole.

00:39:06Oh, well done, uniform.

00:39:11Bad timing, Jack.

00:39:12Super wants to see you as soon as you come in, both of you.

00:39:15And this bloke wants you to phone him.

00:39:17Oh, who's he?

00:39:18No idea.

00:39:19Wouldn't say.

00:39:19Except it's important.

00:39:20Well, it always is, isn't it, eh?

00:39:22Well, come on, Georgie Porgie.

00:39:24Let's go and see the headmaster.

00:39:31Inspector Frost.

00:39:33This is Tim Hamilton's father.

00:39:35He has a complaint.

00:39:37Oh, complaint.

00:39:38I'm very sorry to hear that, sir.

00:39:40How can I help?

00:39:41You and this other officer have been harassing my son.

00:39:44No, no, no, no.

00:39:46Actually, we were asking for some information, that's all.

00:39:49Well, you're going to stop making any association between my son and a roughneck who works in nightclubs.

00:39:54The family went through enough of this last time.

00:39:57Well, he's not the most well-mannered boy I've ever come across, is he, sir?

00:40:02Mind you, they usually say that that comes from the parents.

00:40:05That's enough.

00:40:08You may think you have the right to insult me and my family, you and your vindictive colleague here.

00:40:14Gestapo tactics are still in the police training manual, I see.

00:40:17Mr. Hamilton, I will not have inappropriate accusations made.

00:40:20You should know better than that.

00:40:22If I catch you near my son again without just cause, you and this department will feel the full weight of the law.

00:40:27Excuse me, sir, but is that what happened to Detective Sergeant Reed?

00:40:33Reed?

00:40:33Oh, yes, I remember him. Persistent to the point of being vindictive.

00:40:38Yes, and he was moved from his own division a week after that.

00:40:42Point taken, I think.

00:40:45Well, sir, if we have to question your son again, let's make sure we've got just cause.

00:40:55Eh, Mr. Hamilton?

00:40:58Sir?

00:40:59Come on, George.

00:41:03Well, I'd like to thank you, Mr. Ridley, for getting in touch with the station.

00:41:10Now, I'm rather hoping that you've got something I want.

00:41:13Maybe I have.

00:41:13Your blokes were putting a word about nothing in the papers, I see.

00:41:20Well, no, we didn't want to scare anyone off.

00:41:24If I have got this particular piece of merchandise, you'll take it away, evidence, whatever.

00:41:32I'm out of pocket.

00:41:33Well, you would have heard that I'm willing to stand good for it.

00:41:36Which is what I found.

00:41:46I thought it was dodgy.

00:41:48I don't see many of these.

00:41:51No, they don't give many away.

00:41:54We have security camera tapes of a highly incriminating nature.

00:42:05We're also re-interviewing all of the shopkeepers.

00:42:09We also have a very critically ill police officer.

00:42:11I want to make a phone call.

00:42:16Of course you do.

00:42:18And it's your right.

00:42:21The public phone's a bit dicky at the moment.

00:42:26However...

00:42:27Constable.

00:42:28Yes, sir?

00:42:29If this gentleman needs to make a phone call, he can use the office down there on the left.

00:42:32And make sure he has his privacy.

00:42:34All right, sir.

00:42:35This way, please.

00:42:36Yes.

00:42:37Yes.

00:42:38Yes.

00:42:39Yes.

00:42:40Yes.

00:42:41Yes.

00:42:41You haven't got anything with him on security tape.

00:42:47He doesn't know that.

00:42:48And there's nothing wrong with a public phone.

00:42:50That's a bit close to the wind, isn't it?

00:42:52Look, I said that I have some tapes of an incriminating nature, which I have.

00:42:58Of the kids who pawned Reed's medal.

00:43:03That's not Jensen.

00:43:05We haven't made any connection between Jensen and whoever clobbered Reed.

00:43:09We will.

00:43:10Anyway, George, what do you want?

00:43:14Are you buying?

00:43:15Oh, yeah.

00:43:16Well, in that case, thank you very much.

00:43:18It's all right, all right.

00:43:18It's only a soft drink.

00:43:20It's not magnum of champagne.

00:43:23So what do I do now?

00:43:26What do you mean, buy some time?

00:43:27They're trying to stiff me with working over a copper.

00:43:29They're trying to stiff me with working over a copper.

00:43:41Cover the door.

00:43:42Hamilton is the sort of bloke who gets his kicks by running tough street kids in illegal cigarette rackets.

00:44:07The cost of mounting a raid is substantial.

00:44:09Well, I think that Hamilton has pegged Jensen out to dry.

00:44:13Look, Jensen has told me the time and the place where Hamilton is expecting his next drop-off.

00:44:19If I can...

00:44:19Jensen's statement is not enough.

00:44:22Hamilton's father, he's a force to be reckoned with.

00:44:24Well, it's all I've got.

00:44:28I'm sorry it's all I've got.

00:44:30But if I can nab Hamilton, I'm sure he'll tie in with the lads that assaulted Reid.

00:44:35Well, you haven't got them yet, have you?

00:44:37Well, no, we've identified them.

00:44:39We're looking for them.

00:44:41So, Reid didn't pawn his medal?

00:44:46No.

00:44:48The kids who worked him over did.

00:44:53All right.

00:44:55You better have your raid.

00:45:18All right, come on, let's make a stop.

00:45:20Where's the building?

00:45:21Come on.

00:45:28Hello, Timmy.

00:45:29You're a filth in the farm yard, eh?

00:45:31And a good afternoon to you, too.

00:45:34Tell me, what does it take to join this private club of yours?

00:45:38A willingness to commit crime?

00:45:40No.

00:45:40Intelligence and a willingness to apply it.

00:45:42You've got no right.

00:45:47Wrong.

00:45:48Look, I run a legitimate trading business.

00:45:50What, a smart lad like you at his last year at university?

00:45:54It's called entrepreneurship.

00:45:57It's called thieving.

00:46:00Buildings are clear, sir.

00:46:01Nothing illegal in bath ducks, inspector.

00:46:17They may have pawned it, but they never hurt anybody.

00:46:34I'm not having you lot stick an assault on my, Paulie and Jeff.

00:46:37They've done nothing.

00:46:38Tell him.

00:46:39Tell him what you told me.

00:46:40All right, that'll do, that'll do.

00:46:43You never brought any money into this house.

00:46:46What you do with it, eh?

00:46:47Okay, son.

00:46:48Tell me what happened.

00:46:50He'd already done him.

00:46:52What other bloke?

00:46:54This other fella ran out.

00:46:55We saw him.

00:46:56Some bloke in a short-cutting act.

00:46:58He just nicked his wallet.

00:46:59So, if the boys didn't clobber read, and it's fairly certain they didn't, that just leaves Larry Brewer.

00:47:10No, I don't think it was him.

00:47:12It's not his style.

00:47:14Mind you, people do change, though.

00:47:16There you are, sir.

00:47:19Oh, yes, here I am.

00:47:21Seems as I can't hide anywhere in this place, can I?

00:47:25New post-mortem on Dr Gibson.

00:47:26Oh, thank you.

00:47:29Ah, well, well.

00:47:32It seems our Dr Gibson didn't die on Saturday morning.

00:47:36She died on Thursday night.

00:47:38That's a day and a half earlier than we thought.

00:47:41Clever clogs, aren't they, forensic pathologist?

00:47:44Who says they're one step up from watching sugar dissolve in tea?

00:47:50Put the team rechecking all the statements, will you?

00:47:52I'll get on to it now, sir.

00:47:54No, you won't.

00:47:54You will do that tomorrow morning.

00:47:56You'll go home to your wife, and that would-be child of yours.

00:48:00Go on.

00:48:01Right, sir.

00:48:01You know, the killer must have brought her car and her body back to Denton General Thursday night.

00:48:11That's when he discovers that the incinerator has broken down.

00:48:18He forges her signature on the medical charts Saturday morning to make us think that she was alive and still at work.

00:48:29Well, it's an alibi in reverse.

00:48:34But who killed her Thursday night?

00:48:38I don't know.

00:48:39But one thing is, sir, it wasn't James Ingram.

00:48:43His son didn't die till Friday morning.

00:48:45Sir!

00:48:46Sir!

00:48:47Just had a call from somebody called Rolo.

00:48:50Said to tell you they serve a good pint at the Fiddler's Aben.

00:48:57No, let's call it a day.

00:48:59Good evening, you promised.

00:49:01The usual.

00:49:04Come on.

00:49:04You can always tell a copper, can't you, Inspector Frost?

00:49:21Especially the bent ones.

00:49:24They have that...

00:49:25Certain look.

00:49:27And then there's all the freebies.

00:49:30Free beer, free sarnies, and...

00:49:33Well, who knows what else?

00:49:38Larry Brewer.

00:49:40Took me a long time to remember you.

00:49:43And now you remember me.

00:49:46Oh, my God.

00:49:47Well, no.

00:49:48Just Inspector Frost.

00:49:50Or don't.

00:49:53You tried to kill a police officer?

00:49:56I never laid a hand on him.

00:49:58Cottoned onto me in the pub and followed me out.

00:50:00He's still in a coma.

00:50:01I thought I could hide from him in the cars he...

00:50:04What did you hit him with?

00:50:05Nothing, Mr Frost.

00:50:06I swear.

00:50:08One minute he had his hands on me, the next he was down.

00:50:11Is that when you put the boot in?

00:50:12Look, I haven't harmed anyone.

00:50:16I pretended to be you.

00:50:18Fair enough.

00:50:19But it was a meal ticket and a bit of fun.

00:50:21It was a harmless con.

00:50:25That's all.

00:50:27No, not harmless, Larry.

00:50:30As far as I'm concerned,

00:50:33you assaulted and left a badly injured man

00:50:36who still might die.

00:50:40Con your way out of that one.

00:50:42Oh, no, I'm sorry.

00:51:01I must have nodded off.

00:51:04A quick five minutes, wasn't it?

00:51:06Inspector, you've been here all night.

00:51:09Oh, thank you very much.

00:51:32I'm off duty now.

00:51:33Oh, this is better than a blood transfusion, this.

00:51:41Thank you for, you know, letting me sleep.

00:51:44Well, just don't tell anyone.

00:51:46And make yourself scarce.

00:51:47Shift changes get busy.

00:51:50Yes, yeah, okay.

00:51:52And, uh, well, thanks again.

00:51:54And, uh, well, thanks again.

00:52:24Oh, excuse me.

00:52:38Can you tell me where I can leave this?

00:52:39Just put it in the kitchen, second on right.

00:52:48It was just an unconscious act.

00:53:16Part of a normal routine.

00:53:20She just pulled the plug out and then...

00:53:24then put it back a couple of minutes later.

00:53:27My God.

00:53:29And five people have died.

00:53:30No one could have known.

00:53:36No one.

00:53:37I think this might conclude the internal investigation into post-operative mortalities.

00:53:43The ventilator alarm on bed five was faulty.

00:53:46The ECG alarm only came on when the patient's heart stopped.

00:53:49This is going to cost the trust a fortune.

00:53:50If you didn't skimp on equipment in the first place, Jameson, and gave us enough money for appropriate maintenance, this would never have happened.

00:53:58Thank you, Inspector.

00:54:00You've saved lives.

00:54:01I forgot to add my congratulations and thanks, Inspector.

00:54:12She's happened to be in the right place at the right time, as opposed to our Dr. Gibson.

00:54:17Oh, I was meaning to have a word with you today, anyway.

00:54:22You don't seriously think I killed her?

00:54:24I should be impounding your car today, and I should be taking samples from the tyres, which I believe will put your car in the vicinity of where she was murdered.

00:54:37Quite close to where you live.

00:54:40She was killed near my house?

00:54:42Too close for comfort, eh, Mr. Jameson?

00:54:47Look, she came out to the house.

00:54:49She wanted me to reassess the budget cuts to her department.

00:54:51And she'd do...

00:54:54She'd have done anything to keep that unit fully operational.

00:54:59So she was blackmailing you.

00:55:02She was going to tell the hospital trust about your wife's association with Colby's.

00:55:08And that Colby's had just been approved a very lucrative contract by you, the hospital manager.

00:55:14I didn't kill her!

00:55:18God, what a terrible mess.

00:55:21She left the house at about 8.30, last Thursday night.

00:55:29After I'd agreed to her demands.

00:55:33And she left, Inspector, because our dinner guests had arrived.

00:55:38A dozen people can vouch for me and my wife on Thursday night.

00:55:41I drove into the office late on Friday morning.

00:55:48And I never saw Helena Gibson again.

00:55:52I may be guilty of vested interests, Inspector.

00:55:56But not murder.

00:55:57All right.

00:56:25All right.

00:56:26See, you don't need to use brute force.

00:56:29A little humiliation works wonders.

00:56:30Oh, please leave him alone.

00:56:32Please.

00:56:33He's done a lot of harm.

00:56:35Where would we be without commercial enterprise, Mr. Brunden?

00:56:38Welcome to your organisation.

00:56:41It's nice doing business with you.

00:56:45Oh.

00:56:47Oh.

00:56:48Oh.

00:56:48Frost.

00:56:55Frost.

00:56:55Ah, Mr. Hamilton.

00:56:57So sorry to disturb your meal, sir, but it gives me great pleasure to tell you that I have a warrant for your son's arrest.

00:57:03Okay, George, let's go.

00:57:04I also have a warrant to search these premises and seize anything that I feel might be relevant, such as computers and files, etc.

00:57:14It's all right, Tim.

00:57:14I'll solve these big lads.

00:57:16I have witness statements.

00:57:18I also have a wholesaler who's swapped a whole load of plastic ducts for a surprisingly large amount of contraband cigarettes.

00:57:26I also have a lorry containing the aforementioned contraband cigarettes.

00:57:30I have a friend of your son sitting out there who has traded in his get-out-of-jail-free car.

00:57:37Your manner alone is sufficient for me to lodge a complaint at the highest level.

00:57:40Well, I dare say, but your son, Timmy, has been a very naughty little tyke and has to face some rather unpleasant medicine.

00:57:48You really are insufferable.

00:57:50Yes.

00:57:51And they say there's no satisfaction in one's work.

00:58:00You had to check.

00:58:03I know that.

00:58:06They told me my son was in that bed in intensive care and why he died.

00:58:12Yes, I'm sorry.

00:58:14If you hadn't found out why those people had died, they wouldn't have released his body till who knows when.

00:58:21We can bury him now.

00:58:23Thank you for that.

00:58:28Is there anything I can do?

00:58:29I mean, do you want a lift?

00:58:32No, my, uh, my wife's here.

00:58:47Just a moment, Sergeant.

00:58:50Now, I don't want you feeling lonely in this cold, smelly old cell, so I brought you something to keep you company.

00:58:56Thank you, Mum.

00:58:57Thank you, Mum.

00:59:00Hmm.

00:59:03Thank you, Mum.

00:59:08You know about this fraud case in Essex that I was on all those years ago?

00:59:16Well, I've been looking at my notes.

00:59:19That took some doing, Jack, with your scribble.

00:59:21Well, the thing is that I was back here that month when I was working on that case.

00:59:32She says her birthday is this week.

00:59:35What are you talking about?

00:59:40There's a young girl who says I'm her father.

00:59:45Oh, blimey, that must be serious.

00:59:47She can't be after your money.

00:59:48No, she isn't.

00:59:50No, she isn't.

00:59:50Thank you, Trig.

00:59:55The thing is that, um, well, I'm rather warm to the idea.

01:00:02You...

01:00:03Well, what are you going to do about it, Jack?

01:00:07Don't know.

01:00:07If I don't say anything, she won't know.

01:00:15And she'll have a father and I'll have a very nice daughter.

01:00:22Listen, then.

01:00:25DNA.

01:00:26A DNA test will give you proof.

01:00:30No.

01:00:32They've got the proof.

01:00:34What?

01:00:34Saliva test.

01:00:41Of a serviette that we had on our picnic.

01:00:45I haven't got the courage to open it.

01:00:51That's your call, Jack.

01:00:56Here.

01:00:59Thank you, Trig.

01:01:04Thank you, Trig.

01:01:25Hey!

01:01:26Prentice, you're late again.

01:01:35Sorry, Mr Frost. It's up all night. The baby's due today.

01:01:39Look, why don't you just take the rest of the day off?

01:01:41Oh, thanks, sir. Because I'd never get to the hospital on my bike in time.

01:01:45Oh, well, you'll have to learn to pedal harder, won't you?

01:01:49Look, just a minute.

01:01:51I've got to go to the hospital, see D.S. Reid.

01:01:54I'll get a patrol car to drop me off.

01:01:57Go on, there's my keys. When the call comes, use my car.

01:02:01You can put your bike in the rear.

01:02:03Thanks, sir.

01:02:04Which means, when all this is over, you can cycle back.

01:02:20He's going to be fine.

01:02:23You regain consciousness early this morning.

01:02:25Oh, great.

01:02:26Thank you. Thank you very much for all your help.

01:02:29Not at all. He's got a strong will.

01:02:31Went some way towards pulling him through.

01:02:33Well, I always knew he wasn't a quitter.

01:02:35He'll, um, he'll need care for some time to come.

01:02:38Yes, of course, I understand.

01:02:39Oh, um, by the way, Jemison has resigned as hospital manager.

01:02:43So, um, some good has come of all this.

01:02:46Any words on Helena Gibson's murder?

01:02:49No, not yet, I'm afraid.

01:02:53Excuse me. Will it be all right for me to go in?

01:02:57Yes. Okay. Just for a minute.

01:03:07All right?

01:03:09I see you caught up with your beauty sleep, then.

01:03:12All right, Governor.

01:03:13I've got a shock in the head, eh?

01:03:17Oh.

01:03:17Ha-ha.

01:03:18Ha-ha.

01:03:18I'm not surprised.

01:03:21You'll be pleased to know that we've got Larry Brewer.

01:03:25He'll do some serious time for what he did to you.

01:03:27He didn't touch me, Gov.

01:03:31You what?

01:03:33No, I sussed him in the pub.

01:03:36He did a runner.

01:03:38I collared him in the toilets.

01:03:42The floor was swimming in water.

01:03:45And I slipped and cracked my head on the sink.

01:03:50Well, that was his story.

01:03:53You were telling the truth.

01:03:55For once.

01:03:56Well...

01:03:58Anyway, we still got a result.

01:04:02Yeah.

01:04:05You catch the killer?

01:04:08No, not yet.

01:04:13You know, well, I'd better go.

01:04:17You get some rest.

01:04:19I'm going to slide off to the pub and get a liquid lunch.

01:04:22And before you ask, I won't have one for you.

01:04:27I'll have a double.

01:04:28I hope I'm not too late, sir.

01:04:49Good time, Kiwi, is a knack.

01:04:51And it's one I hope you will soon acquire.

01:04:58Wait, wait, wait.

01:04:59That's what you're doing.

01:05:00Sorry, sir.

01:05:01My upholstery, though.

01:05:02I didn't clean last year.

01:05:03Sorry about that scuff, sir.

01:05:05I'll come off with a bit cleaner.

01:05:07Sir, you all right?

01:05:14Get in touch with the station.

01:05:15Get DS Toulon down here and a couple of squad cars.

01:05:18I want them now!

01:05:19Sir.

01:05:31Ah, Dr. Redneck.

01:05:33You thought you were safe.

01:05:36No body, no crime.

01:05:39But you see, I've got her body.

01:05:41I got it before it went into the incinerator.

01:05:45I have to go back to my patients.

01:05:46You put her in the cold room.

01:05:50Because you knew the hospital incinerator had broken down.

01:05:55You sneaked her car back here Friday night,

01:05:58then forged her signature on Saturday.

01:06:02A perfect alibi.

01:06:04I know it all.

01:06:06No!

01:06:07No!

01:06:10Get out of the way!

01:06:14Britney!

01:06:16No!

01:06:26No!

01:06:32No!

01:06:36No!

01:06:37No!

01:06:38you didn't write that resignation did you she did

01:07:08but she wanted you to sign it am i right you don't understand what it's like where i come from

01:07:15people like her they watch every move you make

01:07:18everything would have ended for me she was questioning my qualifications

01:07:25thought i was responsible for all those deaths

01:07:28the irony is written it wasn't your fault

01:07:44those patients die

01:07:46i heard her talking to jameson she was going to tell him all about me
