00:00:01He looks like he's in for the night.
00:00:03I wish we were.
00:00:06I hate long watches.
00:00:09Why don't you buy a short one?
00:00:16You ready for some?
00:00:18I am.
00:00:20Still your mother's pea soup, isn't it?
00:00:22My mother makes very good pea soup.
00:00:27Cheers.
00:00:30That looks like a munch card.
00:00:34What?
00:00:35The super, Murray.
00:00:44Charlie?
00:00:46Ah.
00:00:48Robert.
00:00:50Thanks for coming.
00:00:53I shouldn't be here, you realise that?
00:00:55Well, I appreciate it.
00:00:56Would you like a drink, Robert?
00:00:57No thanks, but...
00:00:59Well, maybe just a small Dubonni and lemonade.
00:01:04How's Miriam?
00:01:05She's well.
00:01:06She's painting the bathroom tonight.
00:01:09Pink.
00:01:11How's business?
00:01:13Oh, I got stung with half a dozen pirated cassettes.
00:01:16I did warn you.
00:01:17Well, I don't take risks knowingly.
00:01:22What did you want to see me about?
00:01:25Do you see that blue escort out there?
00:01:29There are two of your men in that.
00:01:32Don't be ridiculous.
00:01:33I'm being watched, Robert.
00:01:34And I can do without it.
00:01:39I didn't know about this.
00:01:40No, of course not.
00:01:42Taggart's in charge of this case.
00:01:44No, but you're above him.
00:01:46Does seem heavy-handed.
00:01:49I'll say he's heavy-handed.
00:01:51I find him quite understanding.
00:01:54I'm sorry I did.
00:01:56And what's he understanding about?
00:01:59Our marriage.
00:02:01It's something to be ashamed of, is it?
00:02:03Look, I don't want to become involved in your personal lives.
00:02:07The police are involved.
00:02:09Yes, indeed.
00:02:12Look, Robert, I don't want to pull friendship into this.
00:02:14You already have.
00:02:15What are friends for, Robert?
00:02:17Well, they have a place, Pat.
00:02:19This isn't one of them.
00:02:21I'm being watched like a common criminal.
00:02:23Something must be eating that man the way he interviewed me.
00:02:26Are you making a complaint against them?
00:02:27Just get him off my back.
00:02:28I'll talk to him.
00:02:35Just talk?
00:02:38How long have we known each other?
00:02:40Charlie, we were boys together.
00:02:44But it was a long time ago.
00:02:58How did she manage to kiss him through that thing?
00:03:09You never care when she stays out late.
00:03:11Who says?
00:03:12You never show it.
00:03:14She's not a child.
00:03:16Besides, you never worry when I'm out.
00:03:18You're used to going out.
00:03:19And what do you want her to get used to staying in?
00:03:22Being afraid.
00:03:32How's the new sergeant?
00:03:33Efficient.
00:03:35Changed your tune about him?
00:03:36Not changed my tune.
00:03:37He's efficient, that's all.
00:03:39Well, I hope you don't drive him to being a Zen Buddhist like Al Mackie.
00:03:44I never drove Al Mackie.
00:03:47Just found something else.
00:03:52Where have you been?
00:03:54Opening a Ben's wine bar.
00:03:56You came back on the bike with that?
00:03:58Yeah. Great.
00:03:59You had a good time then.
00:04:01So long as nobody spoils it.
00:04:03That time, Alison.
00:04:05Through that again?
00:04:06We never go through it because there's never enough time in this house.
00:04:09It's hardly my fault.
00:04:10I'll leave you two to argue. Good night.
00:04:12It's always the same. Stay here.
00:04:14You tell her.
00:04:16It's after twelve. Long after.
00:04:18She knows what time it is.
00:04:20You just don't want her to go out at all.
00:04:21We never meet unless by accident.
00:04:31You didn't go to bed last night, did you?
00:04:33Course I did.
00:04:35You sat here all night, I know.
00:04:37It's warm.
00:04:39If we'd had central heating put in.
00:04:42But no.
00:04:44Nobody's ever in this house long enough to merit doing anything.
00:04:46Now that's not true.
00:04:48I'm not complaining.
00:04:49I just don't like being the butt, that's all.
00:04:54I must go to bed.
00:04:56Get some proper sleep.
00:04:58I can get some pills.
00:05:01It's not pills I need.
00:05:03It's a reason for going.
00:05:07I've got an early shift.
00:05:09You wouldn't believe it, but that's reason enough for me.
00:05:17Izzy?
00:05:19He has a tape, wouldn't you say?
00:05:20He has a tape, wouldn't you say?
00:05:21with a drug.
00:05:22He has a tape, wouldn't you say?
00:05:24I can't.
00:05:25He has a tape.
00:05:27He has a tape.
00:05:30You're up early?
00:05:44I'm sorry.
00:05:45You're up early?
00:05:49Yeah, they couldn't sleep.
00:05:53They're still there.
00:05:57I think it's the next shift.
00:05:59Do you think we should invite them in for breakfast?
00:06:01That's not very funny.
00:06:03It can't be for them either.
00:06:05Whose side are you on?
00:06:15You're thinning.
00:06:19Do you miss her?
00:06:23Of course I miss her.
00:06:27I just wondered.
00:06:35I thought I'd catch you before you left.
00:06:39A cup of tea, sir?
00:06:41No, thanks.
00:06:43I saw Charlie Patterson last night.
00:06:47That must have been nice.
00:06:49He's under surveillance.
00:06:51No, that's too sophisticated a word for it.
00:06:53He's being harassed.
00:06:55There must be a new definition of the word.
00:06:57Why?
00:06:59They were supposed to watch him.
00:07:01No, set up his ears.
00:07:03I asked you why, and why I wasn't informed.
00:07:05Because if he's our man,
00:07:07he'll not get a chance to go out and do it again.
00:07:09Oh, come on.
00:07:11One more woman's gonna be safe.
00:07:13Same talking, you might as well put the whole of Glasgow
00:07:15under surveillance.
00:07:17Oh, I would like to, sir.
00:07:19I would like to.
00:07:23You used to be subtle, Jim.
00:07:25Shrewd.
00:07:27You used to play your hunches.
00:07:29Didn't he hammer him?
00:07:31What's getting at you?
00:07:33He's a man.
00:07:35He comes out of the shadows.
00:07:37He leaves no clues.
00:07:39Nobody sees him.
00:07:41He has no motive.
00:07:43Can I ask an impertinent question?
00:07:47Go ahead.
00:07:49If he wasn't an old friend, would it make a difference?
00:07:53Yes.
00:07:55It's an impertinent question.
00:07:57Other things at home.
00:07:59All right, what?
00:08:01And, Gene?
00:08:03What's the worst of this going to do with it?
00:08:07He's just taking an interest.
00:08:09See, nobody likes this sort of crime, Jim.
00:08:13Wondering if and when a killer might strike again.
00:08:17If you're becoming emotionally involved...
00:08:19Who says?
00:08:20I could take over.
00:08:22If you wanted.
00:08:24Would you want to do that?
00:08:26Very well.
00:08:27Find some evidence or leave Charlie Patterson alone.
00:08:30Is that an order?
00:08:33If you like.
00:08:43Gordon, take your lunch.
00:08:44It's too early.
00:08:45Take it.
00:08:47Take it.
00:08:54You manager?
00:08:55Relief.
00:08:56Which it will be when he goes.
00:09:00Thanks, by the way.
00:09:01What for?
00:09:02For getting rid of them.
00:09:04Ah.
00:09:06Coffee?
00:09:07No, thanks.
00:09:09Lunch?
00:09:10On me?
00:09:11Wouldn't be the thing, Charlie.
00:09:13No.
00:09:14Perhaps not.
00:09:15Life's far stranger than any of this fiction, eh?
00:09:19It sure is.
00:09:20Miriam's talking about wanting a machine and hiring films.
00:09:24Anytime.
00:09:25Free membership, you know that.
00:09:26When would I have time?
00:09:27When would I have time?
00:09:31Look, Robert.
00:09:32I know I put you in an embarrassing position.
00:09:34Yeah.
00:09:36You did.
00:09:37Sir.
00:09:38I was just leaving.
00:09:39I was just leaving.
00:09:40See you later, Charlie.
00:09:42Well?
00:09:43I called to see if you remembered anything about the contents of Susan's bag.
00:09:47If I'd remembered anything, I'd have told you.
00:09:48Have you any idea why she went home along the canal?
00:09:49No, I have no idea why she went home by the canal.
00:09:50You see, it's just possible she went to meet someone.
00:09:51It's just possible I might be run out of business.
00:09:52Sorry?
00:09:53I got caught with half a dozen pirated cassettes.
00:09:54Hello?
00:09:55Naval demolition.
00:09:56It's true what they say.
00:09:57The police never leave you alone.
00:09:58That depends what kind of help they get.
00:09:59I don't know.
00:10:00If I'd remembered anything, I'd have told you.
00:10:01Well, have you any idea why she went home along the canal?
00:10:02No, I have no idea why she went home by the canal.
00:10:03You see, it's just possible she went to meet someone.
00:10:06It's just possible I might be run out of business.
00:10:09Sorry?
00:10:10I got caught with half a dozen pirated cassettes.
00:10:13Hello?
00:10:14Naval demolition.
00:10:19It's true what they say.
00:10:20The police never leave you alone.
00:10:22That depends what kind of help they get.
00:10:26Why are you having Charlie watched?
00:10:38Oh.
00:10:40That was my sergeant's idea.
00:10:42He's a bit keen.
00:10:44I've put an end to it.
00:10:46Won't you sit down?
00:10:48Something's been bothering me since we first met.
00:10:57Oh?
00:10:58What?
00:11:03You allow your husband to bring a younger woman up from London.
00:11:07Employ her.
00:11:09Carry on an affair with her.
00:11:11I thought policemen were meant to be men of the world.
00:11:15A woman like yourself, Mrs. Patterson.
00:11:17A house like this.
00:11:20Nice things.
00:11:22I always wanted a house with nice things.
00:11:24I wouldn't gamble with it.
00:11:25Charlie never gambled.
00:11:28Well, from where I sit.
00:11:29I like this house too.
00:11:30I like the things in it.
00:11:31Charlie provides.
00:11:32He's very good at providing.
00:11:39At what cost?
00:11:44You want to know why I stood back?
00:11:46Let him carry on?
00:11:47I had a younger lover.
00:11:54A boy I give a lift to once.
00:11:59He used to hitchhack up from Bradford to see me.
00:12:01Regularly.
00:12:04It was a bit of a gigolo.
00:12:06It was fun being flattered.
00:12:08I enjoy flattering.
00:12:10He was only 23.
00:12:20He went away and I never saw him again.
00:12:22I hoped she'd tire of him in the same way and she didn't.
00:12:25It strikes me you had good reason for wanting Susan dead.
00:12:28What are you suggesting?
00:12:30That I was jealous?
00:12:33It would only be natural.
00:12:41Don't you think I never thought about her?
00:12:44Them together.
00:12:47Him talking to her the way we...
00:12:52Who used to tell me I was more important.
00:12:54Monotonously.
00:12:59Now.
00:13:01Seeing him upset over her.
00:13:05Seeing him look at those love letters he keeps locked in that drawer.
00:13:09What letters?
00:13:11From her in London before she came to work for him.
00:13:16I have feelings.
00:13:19I just learnt to control them, that's all.
00:13:23I'm sorry I've upset you.
00:13:28No.
00:13:30Just gut at the truth.
00:13:38What are you doing here?
00:13:54Just going.
00:13:56I've had it up to here with the police.
00:13:58Any one policeman in particular.
00:14:01If you come to my house again...
00:14:03I'll report me to Robert Murray.
00:14:04Robert Murray.
00:14:05You do that.
00:14:06You do that.
00:14:28Simple.
00:14:29Take us to him.
00:14:33Take us to him.
00:14:49We've found out things about you Alec.
00:14:51No nice things.
00:14:53Who are you?
00:14:54Let me go.
00:14:56Your sins have found you out son.
00:15:00What sin?
00:15:02It wasn't me.
00:15:03I never...
00:15:04Honest.
00:15:06You killed me woman.
00:15:07Ask the police.
00:15:08They know it wasn't me.
00:15:10Can I get you?
00:15:12But we can.
00:15:13You killed me.
00:15:21This is the man.
00:15:22No it wasn't he.
00:15:24This is him.
00:15:26Tell them why you went to prison.
00:15:28No for killing it.
00:15:30A rape to lassie.
00:15:32This is the man.
00:15:44No.
00:15:46No.
00:15:48No.
00:15:50Something is coming.
00:15:51No.
00:15:53No.
00:15:55No.
00:15:57No.
00:15:58No.
00:16:00No.
00:16:02No.
00:16:04No.
00:16:07No.
00:16:08No.
00:16:09No.
00:16:11No.
00:16:12What's the matter?
00:16:22Oh, my God!
00:16:26I just wish you'd let me in on it.
00:16:28On what?
00:16:28This personal vendetta you have against Patterson.
00:16:31I know why he got picked on by the video squad.
00:16:34I want to find out things.
00:16:36What things?
00:16:37Things that weren't there.
00:16:39How come he's your sort of hero?
00:16:40He's not.
00:16:41I just wish you'd tell me what you're doing.
00:16:43That would make a difference.
00:16:44Yes.
00:16:45We are working on this together, sir.
00:16:47I'm an old dog.
00:16:53Faggot?
00:16:55Did he see who?
00:17:03What's happening in this city?
00:17:11Come on!
00:17:12He was near!
00:17:14Get rid of him!
00:17:15You better do your job, Mr. Tick.
00:17:20They work with the Ballantyne clan.
00:17:22You pick them up.
00:17:24I cannae speak to them.
00:17:25I understand them.
00:17:26I understand them.
00:17:34It wasn't your fault.
00:17:36I should have guessed.
00:17:37You said yourself.
00:17:38McGowan never went into the gondola.
00:17:40His sister did.
00:17:41So?
00:17:42She opened her mouth.
00:17:43I still should have known.
00:17:46There was a time when people told me things.
00:17:50Oh.
00:17:51Vigilantes.
00:17:53How did McGowan keep it a secret so long?
00:17:56Kept low.
00:17:57Ronnie's shop.
00:18:00Kept out of trouble.
00:18:02See, we can keep secrets as well.
00:18:05Do you really care about him?
00:18:07What kind of stupid questions are I?
00:18:10I care about this city.
00:18:12Our people.
00:18:14What's happening?
00:18:16You look like I haven't slept for days,
00:18:17caring about it.
00:18:21Doesn't he seem right?
00:18:24A girl of 18 having an affair
00:18:26with a guy like Parson.
00:18:27That again.
00:18:29It seems right.
00:18:32He's got a locked desk at his home
00:18:34with love letters from her in it.
00:18:36I'd like to look in that.
00:18:38Think you can get the search warrant?
00:18:42Aye.
00:18:44I'd rather not do it that way.
00:18:46Reasons of mine.
00:18:48She must be really something.
00:18:57And here is your next question.
00:19:01What have cameos usually carved from?
00:19:05Yes, sir.
00:19:05My phone.
00:19:06My phone is correct.
00:19:07Is she coming in?
00:19:08Onyx gets you 15 nice, big punches, sir.
00:19:14Like then, here is your next question.
00:19:16A student of law has reached a certain standard
00:19:18You haven't said much of the night?
00:19:22I haven't.
00:19:26Is something wrong?
00:19:29No.
00:19:32I thought maybe you'd be doing a visit for your mother.
00:19:34I need to eat in Bute for a walk.
00:19:44In a wee while.
00:19:45Can I come with you?
00:19:49Why?
00:19:50I want to.
00:19:57Look, it's nice to have you here to come back to.
00:20:00Fine excuse.
00:20:03Excuse for what?
00:20:09Look.
00:20:12See where all this guy's about?
00:20:15Do you want me to walk you to the school,
00:20:16wait and walk you back again?
00:20:20Are you listening?
00:20:26Are you listening?
00:20:26Are you listening?
00:20:50Do you want me to walk you back?
00:20:51Are you listening?
00:20:52Come.
00:20:56I'm listening.
00:20:56I'm listening.
00:21:01Now, I think I'm listening.
00:21:02you might say she was dumped from a car you would the body fluids have gathered
00:21:11she was seated upright after she was strangled for about an hour i'd say
00:21:14i do know my job you know one tries to teach him his

00:26:28i was a dirty habit of sin, didn't you know
00:26:33you were talking about the blanket
00:26:34Crystalline. Don't like going into the rooms. They smell cheap.
00:26:47What smells cheap? Them or the rooms?
00:26:51Bath.
00:26:54What do you use the scissors for?
00:26:57Cutting string. Scissors. Stone. Stone blunts scissors.
00:27:27Hi. I didn't know where you were, so I thought I'd take bute for a while. What's that?
00:27:33It's a video machine. Where'd you get it? A funny.
00:27:37Here you go. All right, look. Four million homes in the UK have got them. Now we have.
00:27:42Where did it come from? I go right cheap. Who from?
00:27:46A guy, I know. You don't know any guys. Not that kind anyway.
00:27:50All right, I want in a raffle in a pub, okay? You don't go into pubs?
00:27:55There's a lot about me you don't know. Right, which pub?
00:28:00I cannae remember the name here. Look, I was just sitting in an office day and nothing.
00:28:06Stone.
00:28:11Look, it wasn't even plugged in.
00:28:13Michael, you stole it. All right, look. I went for an interview for a job, right?
00:28:20Well, I went to see if they had any interviews.
00:28:25It was just sitting there. There was nobody about.
00:28:28It was some advertising agency.
00:28:31Did you steal this too?
00:28:35No.
00:28:36Did you?
00:28:40Look, I always wanted you to have good things.
00:28:42No stolen things.
00:28:43No stolen things, Michael.
00:28:46But nobody saw me.
00:28:50I suppose you want me to lie about this.
00:28:54I've lied for you enough.
00:28:57Now what do you mean?
00:28:59You know what I mean.
00:29:01Those weren't the lies.
00:29:04Well, what were they?
00:29:05Dear Jim, may I call you Jim?
00:29:12Well, I just thought I'd let you know I'm having a short rest.
00:29:16Doctor's orders.
00:29:18I haven't been too well.
00:29:20But they don't own you, do they?
00:29:23Nobody does.
00:29:25I like the blonde ones best, you know.
00:29:27Hope you like the enclosed.
00:29:29I took one from each.
00:29:31No good trying to find me, Jim.
00:29:32I see the papers have given me the name The Strangler.
00:29:36Well, DiSalvo had 13.
00:29:38Maybe I will too.
00:29:41They look good like that, don't they?
00:29:43So long, your friend The Strangler.
00:29:50A nutter's filed.
00:29:52I'll take the hairs match, sir.
00:29:54Three individual hairs were sent with a letter.
00:29:56It's likely they'll match.
00:29:58See that reference to the Boston Strangler?
00:29:59I mean, DiSalvo did leave his victims in the same position as ours.
00:30:02Do you think that's what you mean?
00:30:04Who'd know the position of ours about our killer?
00:30:06DiSalvo sexually assaulted his victims.
00:30:08Ours doesn't.
00:30:10Have we adopted him?
00:30:13I don't think McGowan will tell us much more.
00:30:15He hasn't told us anything.
00:30:17Hairdressers, what?
00:30:19They don't own you, do they?
00:30:21I like the blonde ones best.
00:30:23Could he be a hairdresser?
00:30:25They being?
00:30:26Customers.
00:30:28Nice thinking.
00:30:29Assuming it's genuine.
00:30:31Assuming McGowan is not our man.
00:30:33Well, we know he had some reason for cutting off his victims' hair.
00:30:35Do we?
00:30:36Do I need to remind anyone of the danger of falling for hoaxes?
00:30:39He knows too much for it to be a hoax.
00:30:41Okay, Peter, get a team onto it right away.
00:30:43Yes, sir.
00:30:44And let's nail McGowan if he did send us.
00:30:45Send us.
00:31:15Good for you to go, Oleg.
00:31:16Are you still thinking I'm killed a woman?
00:31:17Oh, I think...
00:31:19...you've just been unlucky Oleg.
00:31:20Good for you to go, Alec.
00:31:37You still think I killed a woman?
00:31:41Oh, I think you've just been unlucky, Alec.
00:31:50They let you go.
00:32:11Aye.
00:32:12They were here. I don't know what they were looking for.
00:32:16I don't know either.
00:32:17Never touched a woman in years.
00:32:20They weren't a real woman.
00:32:22What were they? Blokes dressed up?
00:32:25Substitutes. That's what they were.
00:32:27Prostitutes. That's what they were.
00:32:29Don't be disgusted with me, Wilma.
00:32:33It was either of them I'd gone out and done what I did before.
00:32:37I've got strong feelings, Wilma.
00:32:39Just look at you.
00:32:42I like a bath.
00:32:44Pathetic. That's what you are.
00:32:45Don't let them send me away again.
00:32:48Our mother was right.
00:32:50Look after, Alec, she said.
00:32:51He needs looking after.
00:32:52And there was me, no married, stuck with you.
00:32:55No much of a life, eh, Alec?
00:32:57But I stuck it.
00:32:58I stuck it for you.
00:33:01How many times, then, were you with her, them?
00:33:04Just now and again.
00:33:05Oh, aye.
00:33:05So that you can act like some big man for a few minutes.
00:33:09Well, I'm no staying here.
00:33:10No in this shop.
00:33:11No in this neighborhood.
00:33:13And certainly no with you.
00:33:14Not any longer.
00:33:15Wilma.
00:33:15Take your horns off a wee, Alec.
00:33:21The fuss'll die.
00:33:22Die?
00:33:23Aye.
00:33:24I might die.
00:33:26Before I've had a chance to day something with my life.
00:33:29Away from you, Wilma.
00:33:31Come on.
00:33:51Funny thing happened to the hairdressers.
00:33:54Two detectives came in and started asking questions.
00:33:56About any members of staff who'd been off sick.
00:33:59Or were off sick.
00:34:00Billy.
00:34:01I've never asked you.
00:34:06Are you married?
00:34:08I have a wife.
00:34:14Is this a social visit?
00:34:19There's been a third murder.
00:34:22One we knew nothing about.
00:34:24I heard.
00:34:26Does that mean you've stopped suspecting Charlie?
00:34:28I'd still like to look at the love letters in this desk.
00:34:33Keeps it locked.
00:34:34I do.
00:34:36Why are they so important?
00:34:37Oh, probably they're not.
00:34:38You'd need a search warrant.
00:34:42Or a key.
00:34:43Charlie keeps it.
00:34:48Have you never been tempted to...
00:34:50Do you want to steal it?
00:34:50There are some things I don't want to know.
00:34:58You see, they might tell me what a girl of Susan Maguire's age saw in a man like your husband.
00:35:04Some girls prefer older men.
00:35:05Like some young men prefer older women.
00:35:08I don't make a habit of it.
00:35:09I'm sorry.
00:35:11I'm sorry.
00:35:20I was just the one.
00:35:24Glad he went the way he did.
00:35:25Without a word.
00:35:28If he'd been more of a gentleman about it, I wouldn't have coped.
00:35:30Do you love him?
00:35:36He made me feel wanted.
00:35:41Charlie and I had a son once.
00:35:43I know.
00:35:44Died of meningitis when he was three.
00:35:50Charlie accused me of turning Colin into a replacement.
00:35:54Jealous.
00:35:56What else?
00:35:58With Susan, he's certainly got his own back.
00:36:01Some men are lucky enough to be able to.
00:36:04Are you?
00:36:09I live with murder, Mrs. Patterson.
00:36:12It's ugly.
00:36:14It's cold.
00:36:17Sometimes it makes you feel cold on a midsummer's day.
00:36:21Sometimes it makes you feel nothing at all.
00:36:26Call me Pat.
00:36:27Please.
00:36:28I'm constantly surprised how few crimes of real passion have committed.
00:36:32Disappoints you, perhaps?
00:36:33Ah.
00:36:35How do the French call it?
00:36:37Crime passionnelle.
00:36:39Aye, that's it.
00:36:42Here am I looking for a man that kills for killing's sake.
00:36:47A cold man.
00:36:51Heartless.
00:36:51I hope you'll find him.
00:36:55Aye.
00:36:56Sorry.
00:36:57I'll give the kill.
00:36:58Let's go.
00:37:28Peter, come in.
00:37:58Have you seen the lab report on the letter?
00:38:08Tells us nothing.
00:38:09What did you expect?
00:38:11Arrested many cheesy wheezies.
00:38:13None.
00:38:14We're checking out quite a few.
00:38:16Susan Maguire's bag has surfaced.
00:38:19It fits the pattern.
00:38:20Thrown some distance from the body.
00:38:22Where was it?
00:38:23In a scrapyard.
00:38:25This note was in her pocket.
00:38:28Along with two love letters written by Charlie Patterson when she was in London.
00:38:34Compare the handwriting.
00:38:35Who's R.M.?
00:38:41Who was so anxious we lay off Parson?
00:38:46R.M.'s pretty big.
00:38:48Give me a proof of that.
00:38:50Robert Murray!
00:38:52Robert Murray is pretty big.
00:38:56But proof about what?
00:38:58Hiya.
00:39:16My wife Jean, daughter Alison.
00:39:19Detective Sergeant Livingston.
00:39:20Hello.
00:39:21Hello.
00:39:22You must have caught him then.
00:39:23No, I just want me to talk business.
00:39:25It's unusual.
00:39:28Aye, isn't it?
00:39:36I didn't realise your wife was disabled.
00:39:41You're allowed to use the word.
00:39:45So what do you think?
00:39:47That's difficult.
00:39:48Why would Susan McGuire have a note in her bag asking for proof about Murray written by Patterson?
00:39:55She wanted to find out something about him.
00:39:58Well, as there Charlie Patterson wouldn't already know.
00:40:01It has to be Murray.
00:40:04Who else is pretty big?
00:40:08He wanted me off the case, Peter.
00:40:10You think there was a reason?
00:40:13I want to look at the love letters on Patterson's desk.
00:40:17How?
00:40:18I took a small liberty.
00:40:22Investigated many housebreakings.
00:40:25Oh no.
00:40:26There's no alarm.
00:40:27That careless, that.
00:40:29So there shouldn't be any problem, should there?
00:40:31I hope Sergeant Livingston likes salmon paste.
00:40:34Aye, I'm sure he does.
00:40:40Any relation?
00:40:42No.
00:40:43None that we can work out.
00:40:44What's it like working with Dad?
00:40:50Okay.
00:40:50Well, what do you do?
00:40:52I'm a nurse.
00:40:53Ruckhill Hospital.
00:40:55It's funny how a lot of policemen marry nurses.
00:40:57Isn't it?
00:40:58Not this one.
00:40:59One policeman in the family is enough.
00:41:01What's up?
00:41:09There's been a fourth victim.
00:41:12I like my going.
00:41:16Suicide.
00:41:17Here you are.
00:41:28I'll put them down.
00:41:36Come on, what's wrong?
00:41:38That.
00:41:39That's what's wrong.
00:41:41Now come on, there's someone else upsetting you.
00:41:43No.
00:41:46Look, you're balling odd socks.
00:41:52Look, nobody's seen me.
00:41:53If they had somebody, we'd be here by now.
00:41:55It's thieving.
00:41:57Well, where would we have got the money?
00:41:58What's the people manage without?
00:42:02There was the opportunity and I took it.
00:42:04Oh, aye.
00:42:05What other opportunities do you take?
00:42:09Now, what do you mean?
00:42:11You know.
00:42:14I don't.
00:42:23You, Dad.
00:42:26What, you think I'm the strangler?
00:42:37I don't know what do you think.
00:42:45Look, it's not funny, Michael.
00:42:47Aye, well, I think it's very funny.
00:42:51Look, it's happening here, right?
00:42:52It could turn out to be another case, just like the Ripper.
00:42:59I wanted to collect things about it.
00:43:03Is that the truth?
00:43:05I used to collect scraps when I was a kid.
00:43:10Well, why didn't you tell me?
00:43:15Because I didn't want to upset you.
00:43:16Look, I know how much this guy does.
00:43:24Come on.
00:43:25Come on.
00:43:25I want to see you.
00:43:39Bye.
00:43:45Bye.
00:43:50Bye.
00:43:51Bye.
00:43:52CP? Just thought you might fancy a wee trip into the town, shopping.
00:44:20Oh aye, what with? There's a special offer on it, Keithley's the dry cleaners.
00:44:24I've taken a couple of skirts then. Is that a video machine? Yeah. You cannae afford that.
00:44:31It's rented. What with? Michael did a job for somebody. A job? Him? Oh don't believe it.
00:44:38Look if you hold on I'll come with you okay? See before the telly come in the kids was quite
00:44:44happy listening to the wireless. I bet they'd get more of their school work done. I'd smash
00:44:50the lot of these video machines I really would. Mummy you've just never owned one. No and I'm never
00:44:55late let you. Do you need to take this? Aye, why not?
00:45:13Jean and me never ate out. In fact we never went through a romantic phase. She was there, so was I.
00:45:25A young copper with a head full of dreams. I was ambitious. It helps if you're married.
00:45:33Why are you telling me all this? I like your company. I expected questions. What sort of questions?
00:45:47About me and Charlie. Why should I still be interested in that? I expect your marriage
00:45:57is an imitation. Like mine. I'd never betrayed Jean. That's the difference. Have you never? What?
00:46:06Thinking about her problem. Doesn't it have to be a problem? Unfortunately she made it one.
00:46:16I um yeah I have been unfaithful.
00:46:23She made that sacrifice for me. How very noble of her. Noble? A woman that lets her
00:46:33man take a 19 year old to a hotel for a weekend. That's a different kind of sacrifice.
00:46:40I thought we discussed all that. The same hotel where they spent their honeymoon.
00:46:46You seem very sure of that.
00:46:53Found that in Susan Maguire's bag.
00:46:57It was in February they went. A check with the hotel.
00:47:02I thought you had no secrets.
00:47:07It seems that we do.
00:47:14It was a lovely meal. Thank you.
00:47:16I'll drive you home but eh. I have my own car. Besides, it wouldn't be a very good idea.
00:47:26Another cake?
00:47:30Why not?
00:47:46I see what you mean about Mrs P.
00:47:59Leave any traces?
00:48:00Of course not.
00:48:01Anything?
00:48:02Nothing in the letters. All fairly turdid stuff.
00:48:05What he's doing in London. How much he's looking forward to coming back to Glasgow.
00:48:08Having his arms around her. That sort of thing.
00:48:11That's turdid, is it?
00:48:13I think so.
00:48:16Something a bit odd.
00:48:21Patterson doesn't smoke. Yet he has a gold cigarette lighter with his initials engraved on it.
00:48:26Well that's interesting.
00:48:27There's only one place in Glasgow you could have bought a lighter like that.
00:48:29Aye.
00:48:30I was puzzled so I went there.
00:48:31That's good work.
00:48:32You're Mrs Patterson's a regular customer.
00:48:35An assistant remembers selling her the lighter. Four years ago.
00:48:39For a man that doesn't smoke.
00:48:42Did you ever read Alice in Wonderland, Peter?
00:48:44Curiouser and Curiouser.
00:48:47In the end, it was a nightmare.
00:48:49How much does it cost for the end of tape?
00:49:07You have to join our video club.
00:49:08How much is that?
00:49:10Five pounds for life membership.
00:49:13And what about the tapes?
00:49:14One pound a night.
00:49:17Okay, thanks.
00:49:18You're welcome.
00:49:19Gordon.
00:49:20Come on.
00:49:21Oh, pass me that poster, please.
00:49:23Yes, Mr.
00:49:23Come on.
00:49:40Hello.
00:49:41Can I help?
00:49:43Do you want to come in?
00:49:44Please.
00:49:46Luke, could you come back with me?
00:49:47Yes.
00:49:52Come in.
00:49:58Well, you have a leader, don't you?
00:50:01Because if you haven't...
00:50:02We've got a lead, sir.
00:50:03That was found in Susan Maguire's bag.
00:50:07It's in Charlie Patterson's handwriting.
00:50:09Why wasn't I showing this before?
00:50:19What does it mean?
00:50:21I think it means you've got a problem, sir.
00:50:23It's not here.
00:50:31Are you sure it was?
00:50:32He's been home.
00:50:34Well, I know I'm sounding hysterical.
00:50:37I just need to know it's no him.
00:50:40Is that why you came to report it?
00:50:42There's something else.
00:50:53He says he used to keep a scrapbook when he was wee.
00:51:00Well, people do keep scrapbooks, don't they?
00:51:02It's only natural.
00:51:04Yeah.
00:51:06He's got a lot.
00:51:09He couldn't kill anybody.
00:51:12I know he couldn't.
00:51:16God, tell me it's no him.
00:51:20Mrs Boyd, does Michael have access to a car?
00:51:23No.
00:51:23Are you certain?
00:51:25Michael cannae drive.
00:51:28The information you gave us, he gave us, was any of it untrue?
00:51:35On the night of the first murder.
00:51:38He was down there an hour later.
00:51:42And the second?
00:51:45He was out.
00:51:47Working yet?
00:51:48No.
00:51:53That video machine, is it new?
00:52:00He just wanted us to have things.
00:52:04Just to have money to buy them.
00:52:14I'll get them for you.
00:52:19Village video.
00:52:23Mr Patterson?
00:52:24I'll get them for you.
00:52:26Mr Patterson?
00:52:31Who is it?
00:52:32Didn't give any.
00:52:37Hello?
00:52:39Mr Patterson, I saw you that night at the walkway.
00:52:43I know that you're the man the police are looking for.
00:52:45That's the shop where one of them worked to, I read it.
00:52:51I also have something belonging to you.
00:52:54Go on.
00:53:03Mr Patterson, I want as much money as you can raise.
00:53:07Now.
00:53:09And I'm going to tell you where to leave it, okay?
00:53:16Mr Patterson, can you ring me back?
00:53:18My number is 7538684.
00:53:20Gordon, why don't you go home early?
00:53:31Come on, hey, thanks.
00:53:32Well, find something else to do.
00:53:40Hello?
00:53:41Tell me where.
00:53:45Yes, I know it.
00:53:505,000?
00:53:51Yeah.
00:53:53Okay.
00:53:55I'll be there.
00:54:10So soon.
00:54:12Thank you again for the lunch.
00:54:16I'm sorry I left so suddenly.
00:54:17Curiosity finally got to you.
00:54:22It doesn't work.
00:54:24Ah, you have to be good at these things.
00:54:29I have a key here that might fit.
00:54:34Do you want to try it?
00:54:37Huh?
00:54:38Why are you doing this?
00:54:52I think we both have to know the truth.
00:54:54What's wrong?
00:55:14What's wrong?
00:55:18Where did...
00:55:19Who do you buy it for?
00:55:21Colin.
00:55:23A young man that vanished without a word.
00:55:26What was his surname, Mrs Patterson?
00:55:29Penman.
00:55:30CP.
00:55:32Same initials as your husband.
00:55:33Do you think that's why Charlie kept it?
00:55:36Where did Charlie get it?
00:55:38When you visited Susan Maguire in the video shop, did you ever tell her about that lighter?
00:55:43Talk to her about it.
00:55:44Why should I?
00:55:45Oh, thank you.
00:55:47It's important.
00:55:52Yes, I remember.
00:55:55I was trying to put her off Charlie.
00:55:58Turn her against him.
00:56:01I told her how men weren't worth the trouble.
00:56:03How I'd bought this lighter for Colin.
00:56:08How he disappeared without saying goodbye.
00:56:10Now, why do you think that was?
00:56:13Colin.
00:56:15Charlie liked to impress Susan.
00:56:18Expensive car.
00:56:20Expensive clothes.
00:56:21I'll wager he used that lighter to try and impress her without realising she already knew who it belonged to.
00:56:31What happened to Colin?
00:56:33Charlie was a jealous man.
00:56:47Thanks.
00:56:51Look, whatever Michael's committed, it isn't murder.
00:56:55How do you know?
00:56:57Well, the man we were looking for drives.
00:56:58I hope we'll get them.
00:57:04First offence?
00:57:08Oh, I couldn't bear it if he went to prison.
00:57:14Livingston?
00:57:15A message received from D.I. Taggart.
00:57:18Meet him at the video shop in Ducanon Street soonest.
00:57:24Where's your boss, son?
00:57:24He's gone out.
00:57:26Gone out where?
00:57:26I don't know.
00:57:27There was a phone call.
00:57:27What phone call?
00:57:29I don't know who it was from.
00:57:30Well, what did he say?
00:57:31He wrote something down on this.
00:57:36He said 5,000.
00:57:375,000 pounds.
00:57:39Has he been blackmailed?
00:57:40Wouldn't it be the first time?
00:57:43What's happened?
00:57:44History's repeating itself.
00:58:14Susan McGuire was blackmailing Patterson.
00:58:26Right, first time.
00:58:27He never even knew his wife had a lover,
00:58:29a lone one who'd disappeared.
00:58:30There's a lot of things I never told you about this case.
00:58:33Why?
00:58:34And it was so important.
00:58:35I never knew it was important until now.
00:58:38So he committed two other murders to make it look like the work of a maniac.
00:58:41He sent the anonymous letter with the hairs in it.
00:58:44Sent you off on a wild goose chase.
00:58:46He fooled us all.
00:58:48Why go to all that trouble?
00:58:49Oh, think.
00:58:51If he'd only murdered Susan McGuire, we'd never have let him off the hook.
00:58:55And all because he kept that letter.
00:58:57Aye.
00:58:58That was his downfall.
00:59:00I just hoped to God we're not too late to prevent mine.
00:59:03Where does Murray come in?
00:59:05I've been a bad boy, Peter.
00:59:07A very bad boy.
00:59:11I wanted the glory for myself and my city.
00:59:35What glory?
00:59:36Oh, for Christ's sake.
00:59:38You're supposed to be a smart young detective.
00:59:41Susan McGuire worked it out.
00:59:43Patterson took her to the Kinloch Hotel, King's House, Argyle.
00:59:47He'd served up there.
00:59:48He knew the area well.
00:59:50Well enough to know where to bury a body in a remote spot without it being found.
00:59:56Now, where would that be in Scotland?
00:59:59Runoch Moor.
01:00:00Aye.
01:00:01R.M. is pretty big.
01:00:04Of course she had no proof.
01:00:07She just had a hunch that he'd killed Pat's boyfriend, buried him up there.
01:00:12That's what the note meant.
01:00:14Which presumably he left her instead of the money she asked for.
01:00:16Right.
01:00:19When did you work this out?
01:00:22When we found it.
01:00:23You knew R.M. stood for Runoch Moor.
01:00:26You deliberately misled me.
01:00:30Sorry, Peter.
01:00:32You bastard!
01:00:32You bastard!
01:00:58Frankly, I can do without you, son.
01:01:02You bastard!
01:01:21You bastard!
01:01:21I'm going to die.
01:01:37Come on, man!
01:01:39Come closer.
01:02:02Send me a leg!
01:02:05This one!
01:02:09Go, go, go, go.
01:02:39Go, go, go.
01:03:09Go, go, go.
01:03:39Go, go, go.
