00:00:00Oh, you opened up, okay?
00:00:27Have you been still happening?
00:00:28Yes.
00:00:29Well, I'll look after it, please, till Keith comes back for the game.
00:00:31Are we going to lie down?
00:00:33You die lying down.
00:00:39How you doing, big man?
00:00:40Fine. Find a lager, please.
00:00:42I'll get that.
00:00:43Thanks.
00:00:46You have a good day?
00:00:47Yes.
00:00:50Where is she now?
00:00:51About a minute ago.
00:00:53One brave lady.
00:00:55I'm not brave.
00:00:59You don't know anything about women.
00:01:03McVitie's asked me to prepare a report for the Procurator Fiscal.
00:01:06We think there might be enough circumstantial evidence on which to charge her.
00:01:11I object to you going over my head and asking that.
00:01:25That what?
00:01:26He's your neighbour, Jan.
00:01:28He knows what he's about.
00:01:29And he's not susceptible to Eleanor Samson's charge.
00:01:32Meaning I am.
00:01:33She's a beautiful woman.
00:01:35Successful.
00:01:36Famous.
00:01:37But there's not one law for her and one for the rest.
00:01:43Sir.
00:01:48Her son was having an affair with Kirstie King.
00:01:52We wanted to hang her out.
00:01:56It may have no bearing,
00:01:58but I reckon there's more to this case than we thought.
00:02:00She buried Ted Maxwell,
00:02:02John Samson,
00:02:03Graham.
00:02:05Does Peter know?
00:02:06Not unless he's clairvoyant.
00:02:08Don't start working against each other.
00:02:13Start.
00:02:17I'm going out.
00:02:28Lily.
00:02:29Is there anything you want?
00:02:58You're right.
00:03:08You're right.
00:03:10I'm going out.
00:03:12I know you.
00:03:15I'm going out.
00:03:19You're right.
00:03:22You're right.
00:03:23You're right.
00:03:24John.
00:03:54Hello? John?
00:04:18Ah!
00:04:24The start of the season, right enough.
00:04:47Classic suicide position.
00:04:50Bully mess.
00:04:52Never try and get used to it.
00:04:55You might wake up one morning feeling nothing.
00:04:59Check the windows in the house.
00:05:06Right, give me one of the gun cabinet.
00:05:09Has it been forced?
00:05:11No.
00:05:13No sign of a struggle?
00:05:14No.
00:05:15Is there a note?
00:05:16Well, a minority of suicides leave notes.
00:05:20Is that right?
00:05:22Jim?
00:05:29Good grief.
00:05:32He's all yours.
00:05:36Anyone report the shot?
00:05:37Nobody.
00:05:38Must have made quite a din.
00:05:41Carbark firing somewhere.
00:05:44Glasgow's not yet a set of way.
00:05:45Expect he had guns going off.
00:05:46Thank goodness.
00:05:48Can we move the gun?
00:05:49Yes.
00:05:53All locked.
00:05:55No sign of any forced entry.
00:05:58Those must have gone through like a solid object.
00:06:01They've both been fired.
00:06:03Both barrels?
00:06:04It's a side-by-side.
00:06:05You can fire both barrels at the same time.
00:06:08Two cartridges to commit suicide when one would have done.
00:06:12I shouldn't have thought economy was on his mind.
00:06:15I'll be with Mrs. Samson.
00:06:16All right.
00:06:20Let's see how long he's been dead.
00:06:51I'm sorry. I know it's painful right now, but I have to ask, how did you get into the house?
00:07:03Side door.
00:07:05Was it open or closed?
00:07:09Closed, not locked.
00:07:12When did you last see him?
00:07:15About a week ago. The day after.
00:07:17I just wanted to try and talk.
00:07:24Where's Graham?
00:07:27At his grandfather's, I think.
00:07:31Did you kill Kirsty King?
00:07:33Why do you keep asking me that?
00:07:37Oh, come on, Mrs. Sampson.
00:07:40You're not on stage now, playing some big operatic role.
00:07:44In a few days' time, you could be charged with murder.
00:07:46I want a straight answer. Yes or no.
00:07:49No.
00:07:50No!
00:07:55Who believes me?
00:07:58I don't believe myself.
00:08:00Does that make sense?
00:08:19Suicide?
00:08:20Yes.
00:08:21He's been dead about eight hours.
00:08:23Say, between 8.30 and 10 o'clock this morning.
00:08:27Can't he be more exact?
00:08:29You should know better than to ask that.
00:08:32Contact wound?
00:08:33Would have to be.
00:08:35There's a lot of burning on the roof of the mouth.
00:08:37What's left of it.
00:08:40In my view, it's totally consistent with suicide.
00:08:43And no note.
00:08:45None at all.
00:08:48This doesn't change anything, you understand.
00:08:49I don't know.
00:08:50I don't know.
00:08:56It's holidays you keep reading about.
00:09:03How would you like to be able to afford one?
00:09:05You bring home the money, and we'll have the holiday.
00:09:08You and me, the Costa Brava.
00:09:14Well, I'm a way out.
00:09:16You're going out an awful lot these days.
00:09:19There's this man.
00:09:20I'm doing a job for him.
00:09:22What kind of a job?
00:09:24Well, sort of delivering things.
00:09:26You're going to get paid?
00:09:27Of course I'm going to get paid.
00:09:29I hope it's legal.
00:09:30Don't worry.
00:09:35You'll be able to pay off your loan.
00:09:39For good.
00:09:41Jimmy!
00:09:42Jimmy!
00:09:56What kept you?
00:10:00I got up late.
00:10:03I had to pay my own admission.
00:10:08Why do we have to keep meeting at the zoo?
00:10:10I'm wrong.
00:10:10Do you not like zoos?
00:10:13When do I get paid?
00:10:15Half before the job, and half after I sell the pub.
00:10:18Why do we have to wait?
00:10:22Because murder has to be planned.
00:10:25Discussed.
00:10:26You cannae just rush in.
00:10:29That's how a lot of folk get caught.
00:10:30They get careless.
00:10:32Look at that Eleanor Sampson, the opera singer.
00:10:34Kill the girl on that boat.
00:10:36A stupid way to do it.
00:10:38But I've got this thing worked out.
00:10:39I'm listening.
00:10:42Now what concerns me most is that you remember to do everything.
00:10:45I'll remember.
00:10:48I'll take a lesson for her.
00:10:56If you're talking to Graham, I'm staying with him.
00:11:02How did he see him this morning?
00:11:04I didn't see anything.
00:11:08Nothing at all?
00:11:09Mum doesn't know.
00:11:13Know what?
00:11:16Dad found out.
00:11:19Kirsty and me.
00:11:22Oh, no.
00:11:24I'm afraid it's true.
00:11:27I told Dad that Kirsty was still seeing Mr Maxwell.
00:11:30Her old boss.
00:11:32The night before she got killed.
00:11:33How did you know?
00:11:35Kirsty told me.
00:11:35They had this argument that night about it.
00:11:41He threatened to kill her.
00:11:46Give me a Bible.
00:11:47I'll swear on it.
00:11:47If Graham says it's true...
00:11:49...
00:11:49...
00:11:49...
00:11:50John killed her.
00:11:54Frank, it's been a long time.
00:12:04Frank, it's been a long time.
00:12:22I came by to say sorry I had about John.
00:12:25If there's anything I can do.
00:12:28There isn't.
00:12:32Did he leave anything?
00:12:33A note?
00:12:34Nothing.
00:12:36Ready?
00:12:39Police are in the house now.
00:12:41They're the last people I want to see.
00:12:43They're the last people I want to see.
00:12:45You take care now.
00:13:02Domestic murder.
00:13:03Nice and easy.
00:13:04You said that to me once.
00:13:07It must have been crazy.
00:13:10That's Maxwell's car.
00:13:11It must have been crazy.
00:13:12Oh, man.
00:13:14It must have been crazy.
00:13:16I don't know.
00:13:36We've got to see.
00:13:37There we go.
00:13:38There we go.
00:13:39We've got to see.
00:13:40We're gonna see.
00:13:40We've got to see.
00:13:41I think you could be looking further into this case than it merits.
00:13:54If John Sampson killed Kirsty in anger, why didn't he do it earlier that morning?
00:13:59He didn't kill her.
00:14:00You think Graham's lying to take the heat off his mother?
00:14:03Yeah. I think it's possible.
00:14:05Oh. I know it's possible.
00:14:11Come in.
00:14:12Oh, you're still here. Glad I caught you.
00:14:16I brought you the post-mortem report.
00:14:18Have you got a minute?
00:14:20Sure.
00:14:27So what's your problem?
00:14:29It's not a problem, really.
00:14:31It's more a notion.
00:14:35Suppose...
00:14:38...Sampson was knocked unconscious.
00:14:42And then...
00:14:45...then he's put in the arms here.
00:14:48And his fingers are placed on the triggers, and someone else...
00:14:51Someone else operated the triggers?
00:14:54Huh?
00:14:58Half his head was blown away, obliterating the first injury.
00:15:02Then you'd have the perfect murder.
00:15:16The hammer's in the drawer under the telephone.
00:15:18Under the telephone.
00:15:20I hit her while she's sleeping.
00:15:22Drag her body over to the telephone.
00:15:25Put the receiver in her hand.
00:15:26Face down.
00:15:28You must drag her face down.
00:15:30Face down?
00:15:32Put the receiver in her hand.
00:15:34Dial 999.
00:15:35I don't say anything.
00:15:37I just leave.
00:15:39What about the drawers?
00:15:41I pull them out.
00:15:42Make it look like a break-in.
00:15:45I'll make sure there's something's missing.
00:15:47And I go over it again.
00:15:49Oh, do I have to?
00:15:50Yes.
00:15:53The hammer's in the drawer, underneath the telephone.
00:15:57Couldn't I shoot her?
00:16:01I hit her while she's sleeping.
00:16:03Drag her body over to the telephone.
00:16:05Face down.
00:16:06Face down.
00:16:07It's got to look as though she's crawled and made the call herself.
00:16:10You've told me.
00:16:11The emergency services will trace the call.
00:16:14That'll give me time to establish an alibi.
00:16:18Well, where will you be?
00:16:19Never mind.
00:16:22Just remember, you have to do it at 4 o'clock exactly.
00:16:27What if she's not sleeping?
00:16:28She always has a nap.
00:16:32I haven't got a watch.
00:16:34Take mine.
00:16:38And remember to wear your gloves.
00:16:39You've got a record, so your prints will be on file.
00:16:42Do you think I'm stupid?
00:16:47When do I get paid?
00:16:49The money's in front of you.
00:17:00Suppose something goes wrong.
00:17:03Nothing can go wrong.
00:17:09That was the brewery on the phone.
00:17:12The Dre wants to deliver today instead of tomorrow.
00:17:15Well, that's all right.
00:17:15I can stay on.
00:17:16Oh, good.
00:17:17What time's your appointment?
00:17:18Quarter to four.
00:17:21My Gerald had varic his veins.
00:17:22He was like you.
00:17:23Suffered terrible.
00:17:25Wendy, if Keith comes back before I do, you don't need to tell him where I've gone.
00:17:29I'm going private.
00:17:31Well, you don't want just anybody feeling your legs, do you?
00:17:35Here, I wish somebody would feel mine.
00:17:36Excuse me, do you have the right time?
00:17:58Sorry, I don't wear a watch.
00:18:00Clock seems to have stopped.
00:18:01Sorry to have kept you.
00:18:10He's before me.
00:18:11I haven't seen you in here for some time.
00:18:13How are you?
00:18:15I was sorry to read about your son-in-law.
00:18:17I saw the funeral was yesterday.
00:18:20At Tussus.
00:18:23Day after tomorrow.
00:18:24That'll do.
00:18:26It's Mulholland.
00:18:28M-U-L-L.
00:18:29Do you know?
00:18:31There we are.
00:18:35Thanks.
00:18:36Bye.
00:18:37Bye.
00:18:41What time is it, Dot?
00:18:43Oh, it's four o'clock.
00:19:01What do you two o'clock, call me?
00:19:04Oh, it's four o'clock.
00:19:14Oh, it's four o'clock.
00:19:19A great day.
00:19:22Bye.
00:19:22Bye.
00:19:23Bye.
00:19:24Bye.
00:19:24Bye.
00:19:27Bye.
00:19:27Bye.
00:19:28Bye.
00:19:28Bye.
00:19:29Bye.
00:19:29Bye.
00:19:29Bye.
00:19:30Bye.
00:22:33Whoever it was didn't mean to kill her.
00:22:37What was he trying to do? Hang up a picture?
00:22:42Maybe she was still alive when he formed.
00:22:44I thought you'd outgrown that stage.
00:22:49What stage?
00:22:51Laying the groundwork for the defence.
00:22:54Right.
00:22:54I only left her for an hour.
00:23:03Left who, sir?
00:23:04My wife.
00:23:05Can...
00:23:06Can I see her?
00:23:07What's wrong?
00:23:08All left's been marked up.
00:23:17What's wrong?
00:23:20What's wrong?
00:23:21I killed her woman.
00:23:31I didn't mean to...
00:23:32I didn't mean to.
00:23:43I didn't mean to.
00:23:45You're good.
00:23:45You know that holiday you've always wanted, Ma?
00:23:47You know that holiday you've always wanted, Ma?
00:23:52Can we go together today, please, Ma?
00:23:56Did she have any relations?
00:23:59I think she has a sister somewhere in England.
00:24:02Brighton.
00:24:03It's, uh...
00:24:06It's just a matter of procedure, Keith.
00:24:09But we'll have to ask you where you're at at four o'clock this afternoon.
00:24:12Of course.
00:24:13I was at the dry cleaners.
00:24:15Quality dry.
00:24:16It's in the precinct.
00:24:17What did you go there for?
00:24:18Had a couple of suits.
00:24:20We'd like to go upstairs and make a list of anything that's been stolen.
00:24:25You don't think I had anything to do with it?
00:24:27No.
00:24:28It's, as I said, it's the procedure that we've got to go through.
00:24:50Good afternoon.
00:24:51Afternoon.
00:24:52Please.
00:24:53We're just doing a routine check.
00:24:54Oh.
00:24:55Yesterday, did you have a customer called Brennan come into the shop?
00:24:57Ah.
00:24:58I'll have a look.
00:24:59Keith Brennan.
00:25:00Oh, Keith.
00:25:01Oh, yes.
00:25:02Yes, he comes in here regularly.
00:25:03In fact, I remember he usually brings in things for his wife, but yesterday he brought
00:25:17in two suits.
00:25:18Why?
00:25:19He hasn't done anything.
00:25:20He hasn't done anything.
00:25:21Do you remember what time he was in at?
00:25:22It was four o'clock.
00:25:23You seem very sure about that.
00:25:25Well, he asked me the time.
00:25:27The clock stopped.
00:25:28I keep meaning to get a new battery.
00:25:30Are you the manageress here?
00:25:32Yes.
00:25:33Yes, I am.
00:25:34Can you hear your name, please?
00:25:35It's Milner.
00:25:36Dorothy Milner.
00:25:37There's no need to close up.
00:25:42Oh, it's nearly lunchtime, and I do have an appointment anyway.
00:25:46I will keep you there.
00:25:48Bye.
00:25:49Bye.
00:25:50Bye.
00:26:01You wanted a what?
00:26:03Aye.
00:26:04We found this watch, Keith.
00:26:08Don't suppose it belongs to you by any chance?
00:26:11No.
00:26:12We found the gloves he wore nearby.
00:26:16Thought he might have dropped that in the process.
00:26:18Looks like the one I bought you.
00:26:21I saw it is.
00:26:22I didn't know it was missing.
00:26:23Where did you find it?
00:26:24In the canal.
00:26:25I don't wear it that often.
00:26:26You were lucky to find it.
00:26:27Fine birthday present.
00:26:28All we thought was missing was a few pounds.
00:26:29We got a couple of prints off it.
00:26:30Prints?
00:26:31Is that possible if it was in the canal?
00:26:32Oh.
00:26:33They might be mine.
00:26:34That's why we took yours, for the purpose of elimination.
00:26:35I need to keep it, Keith.
00:26:36I'll keep you posted.
00:26:37And by the way, you'll be glad to know that we got in touch with Mrs McQueen's sister.
00:26:38That's good.
00:26:39That's good.
00:26:40I can't have a few.
00:26:41I can't see you.
00:26:42All we thought was missing was a few pounds.
00:26:43We got a couple of prints off it.
00:26:44Prints?
00:26:45Is that possible if it was in the canal?
00:26:47Oh.
00:26:48They might be mine.
00:26:49No.
00:26:50That's why we took yours, for the purpose of elimination.
00:26:54I need to keep it, Keith.
00:26:57I'll keep you posted.
00:26:59And by the way, you'll be glad to know that we got in touch with Mrs McQueen's sister.
00:27:06That's good.
00:27:08I don't know where he is.
00:27:11Do you mind if we wait?
00:27:13What's he done?
00:27:16Where was he yesterday afternoon, Mrs Petrie?
00:27:18Around about four o'clock.
00:27:20He was right here.
00:27:21You're certain?
00:27:23Because he's my witness.
00:27:25We know he wasn't, Mrs Petrie.
00:27:27Who are you to come in here telling me where my son was or where he wasn't?
00:27:30I told you he was here.
00:27:32Why don't you go and do something useful?
00:27:34Like looking for my husband who's been missing for four years without a trace.
00:27:38Bastards.
00:28:46Oh, my God.
00:29:16Come on, then.
00:29:18Hey, hey, hey.
00:29:20Come on.
00:29:22Come on.
00:29:24Come on.
00:29:26Come on.
00:29:28Come on.
00:29:30Hey, hey, hey.
00:29:32Come on.
00:29:34Hey, hey.
00:29:36I thought you were going to cruise stuff up.
00:29:40I thought you were going to cruise stuff up.
00:29:46Have you read it?
00:29:50Aye.
00:29:52I'll let you use my good pen.
00:29:54How many years will I get?
00:29:56But mine's not on.
00:29:58Only three or four.
00:30:00But you're charging me with mud, though.
00:30:02I know, Jimmy.
00:30:04But you made the 999 call.
00:30:06You didn't mean to kill her.
00:30:08My court will look sympathetically on her.
00:30:10Won't it, Peter?
00:30:12Undoubtedly.
00:30:16Come on.
00:30:22Come on.
00:30:34How's the arm?
00:30:36Painful.
00:30:38Dr. McNaughton.
00:30:40Please, it's an emergency.
00:30:44Dr. McNaughton.
00:30:46It's Graham Sampson.
00:30:48Mr. Mulholland's grandson.
00:30:50It's my grandfather.
00:30:52I think he's dead.
00:30:54Is this exactly how you found him?
00:30:56Yes.
00:30:58Just after I came home from school.
00:31:00I switched off the electric fire.
00:31:02It was burning.
00:31:04When did you I see him?
00:31:06This morning.
00:31:08Have you been here for a while?
00:31:10No.
00:31:12I think he's dead.
00:31:14I think he's dead.
00:31:16Is this exactly how you found him?
00:31:18Yes.
00:31:20Just after I came home from school.
00:31:22I switched off the electric fire.
00:31:24It was burning.
00:31:26When did you last see him?
00:31:28This morning.
00:31:30Have you been here since your mum left for London?
00:31:32Yes.
00:31:34Would you leave us for a minute?
00:31:36I'll have to phone and tell mum.
00:31:38Later.
00:31:40Looks like a stroke to me.
00:31:42But I thought I'd better call you.
00:31:44Oh, you did right.
00:31:46Has he had a stroke before?
00:31:48Three.
00:31:50Minor ones.
00:31:52He once referred to himself as...
00:31:54...as...
00:31:56...a...
00:31:58...an...
00:32:00...an...
00:32:02...an...
00:32:04...an...
00:32:05...an...
00:32:07...an...
00:32:08...an...
00:32:09...an...
00:32:10...an...
00:32:11...an...
00:32:12How much was he worth?
00:32:17Do you mean money?
00:32:19Yes.
00:32:20That's how a man's worth is measured, is it?
00:32:28There's Mr Mulholland's will...
00:32:30...received by us on the 12th of August.
00:32:32Start of the season.
00:32:34That's the letter that was sent with it, asking for early confirmation.
00:32:39We sent that out the same day.
00:32:41Is it normal to deposit a will with a bank without going through a solicitor?
00:32:45Some people just object to paying solicitor's fees.
00:32:48Even someone with his money?
00:32:49Especially someone.
00:32:54I don't believe it.
00:32:56Neither do I.
00:32:59Would you mind waiting outside for a moment, Mr Pearson?
00:33:03Not at all.
00:33:14Signed by him?
00:33:15By two witnesses who can no longer testify.
00:33:17That's our motive.
00:33:18The beneficiary.
00:33:21Dorothy Milner.
00:33:22Do we know her?
00:33:23No, but we ought to.
00:33:24Let's get an expert to look at those signatures.
00:33:26It may just be coincidence, but you remember Keith Brennan's alibi?
00:33:29What about it?
00:33:30The woman who runs the dry cleaning shop.
00:33:33Her name's Dorothy Milner.
00:33:35I'm going to phone the police and find out what's happening.
00:33:44Eleanor, there's something you ought to know first.
00:33:47Mum, the police are treating it as murder.
00:33:53But you told me he had a stroke.
00:33:57How much has he left me?
00:34:05A lot.
00:34:07In fact, everything.
00:34:10Why?
00:34:11We were hoping you could tell us.
00:34:14It was 18 years ago.
00:34:18It was a crush on a middle-aged man, really.
00:34:20I mean, Cathy never knew about it.
00:34:22His wife.
00:34:24What do you mean?
00:34:25He gave me a lift from school one day.
00:34:28It was raining.
00:34:30I accepted.
00:34:31And he took me for a coffee.
00:34:33How old were you?
00:34:3517.
00:34:37It was my last year at school.
00:34:40He started turning up.
00:34:43I went out with him.
00:34:45It lasted about a year.
00:34:48I had a baby by him.
00:34:53How much...
00:34:56I mean...
00:34:58How much is everything?
00:35:00Well...
00:35:02With the value of the house.
00:35:04About half a million.
00:35:06Plus company shares.
00:35:08I just can't.
00:35:19Maybe you made him happy.
00:35:21He comes in here regularly.
00:35:23There's nothing between us.
00:35:25What happened to the baby?
00:35:27I don't know.
00:35:28I had to put up for adoption.
00:35:33The two witnesses that put their signatures to the will are both dead.
00:35:37Kirstie King and John Samson.
00:35:40I take it you can account for where you were at the time of both deaths.
00:35:45Well, yes.
00:35:47There is one thing.
00:35:49In spite of the will, Mr. Mulhoorn's daughter is legally entitled to half the movable estate.
00:35:58Smart.
00:36:00Even though she isn't his daughter?
00:36:02But I haven't even heard of her.
00:36:05Neither did we until today.
00:36:08I want to see this will.
00:36:10I'm afraid that's not possible at the moment.
00:36:12Come.
00:36:16Mrs. Samson?
00:36:17I've told Mrs. Samson about the will.
00:36:20Have you also told her we now have a motive for the murder of Kirstie King and her husband?
00:36:24Jim!
00:36:25Mad.
00:36:26There was no suicide, Mrs. Samson.
00:36:27The inquest felt...
00:36:28They were wrong.
00:36:30And we were wrong.
00:36:33Kirstie King and her husband witnessed the will.
00:36:37It's my opinion they were murdered so that neither you nor Graham could contest it,
00:36:41and it's also my opinion that we'll find out that will is a forgery.
00:36:45Do you know Dorothy Milner?
00:36:48No, I haven't even heard of her.
00:36:53She, um...
00:36:56She says she had an affair with her father 18 years ago,
00:37:00when she was only 17.
00:37:04And she also says...
00:37:06that she had a son by him.
00:37:09Is that possible?
00:37:13You didn't know him.
00:37:15Oh, yes, yes, it's possible.
00:37:21Or something else.
00:37:27We have to prove that her story's genuine.
00:37:32She mentioned something your father told her 18 years ago.
00:37:34I think you'd better sit down.
00:37:38There's Max, folks.
00:37:40I'll get rid of him.
00:37:41I'll get rid of him.
00:37:47I'll get rid of him.
00:37:48I'll get rid of him.
00:37:49I'll get rid of him.
00:37:58Oh, no.
00:38:00I'm sorry about your father.
00:38:02Yes, sir.
00:38:04I know this probably isn't the right time, but, uh, what's going to happen to the company?
00:38:06it isn't the right time it becomes yours doesn't it John's estate goes to my
00:38:14son your father was still a major shareholder in the company if you
00:38:19thought of selling this for maxwell decisions like that can't be left I have
00:38:28a few suggestions on my putting yes we just don't want to hear about them not
00:38:31now I'm still upset if you want to manage or put in temporarily I can suggest a
00:38:37good man mr. Maxwell would you just please leave
00:38:53a bloody man's an absolute vulture
00:39:01what's the matter I've just been told I'm illegitimate
00:39:10come on this this woman she
00:39:16she said dad told her I wasn't his daughter
00:39:22you must always have known you surely don't believe that I've agreed to a blunt
00:39:32test by the way you'd be named as the executor on that one
00:39:39she's inherited a lot of money who has
00:39:47you a fancy piece in the dry cleaners you know the father of that singer the one the police think
00:39:55murdered that girl in the boat he's left her everything in his will why it seems he quoted
00:40:01her 18 years ago I wish a rich man had quoted me
00:40:05a massive what myocardial infarction destruction of an area of heart muscle caused by the occlusion of a
00:40:17coronary artery which means what he had a heart attack so much for the murder theory Jim
00:40:25what about the third degree burns down his side must be lying in front of a electric fire for hours a coronary occlusion Jim I did a complete post-mortem he had a history of cardiac trouble did you have a handwriting expert look at the will
00:40:43yeah the signatures are all genuine it was Tector Mulholland's typewriter and then the signatures put on it's incredible how many people sign things without reading them properly including Mulholland and Samson Samson would never have been a party to that will
00:40:58they thought they were signing something else the old paper underneath trick
00:41:04I want her watched 24 hours a day if she didn't kill Kirstie King and John Samson somebody did it for her
00:41:14and Mulholland's death what about that
00:41:17it's not often we have a motive without a murder
00:41:23well you've both been eating me
00:41:27Steve
00:41:28a heart attack can be induced
00:41:33shock
00:41:34shock
00:41:35shock
00:41:35a hard one to define in law Jim
00:41:39and almost impossible to prove
00:41:42what will happen to grandpa's house
00:41:46Graham there's something I've got to tell you
00:41:51I've only just found out myself and
00:41:54well it was rather a shock
00:41:56what
00:41:56grandpa's house
00:42:02yes and most of his money is going to a woman he had an affair with years ago
00:42:07but you're his daughter
00:42:09well I'm coming to that
00:42:10I've also just been told that
00:42:12I wasn't his real daughter
00:42:15he really led your grandmother a dance you know
00:42:18well
00:42:20apparently she found someone else for a while and
00:42:24I'm the end product
00:42:28Christ I hate my family
00:42:34I'm the end product
00:42:38M-U-L-L
00:42:41Hello, my phone.
00:42:58M-U-L-L.
00:43:11All right, if I come in?
00:43:41It's quite a wee place, this, eh?
00:43:46Used to be my hideaway when I was a little girl.
00:43:51All I had was the streets, the backcourts and the middens.
00:43:56We used to dig holes and sail wee bits of wood in them.
00:44:08By the way,
00:44:10the procurator fiscal has brought a mother charge against you.
00:44:14Lack of evidence.
00:44:16That sounds rather like a face-saving decision.
00:44:22I thought you'd be relieved.
00:44:24I don't feel anything.
00:44:27And, um, we've had the result of the blood test.
00:44:33And?
00:44:35Well...
00:44:37Your father's blood group was AA.
00:44:41Yours is O.
00:44:43I'm told that makes it impossible to...
00:44:45So who was my father?
00:44:47Wish I could tell you.
00:44:49It was always cold to me.
00:44:53I never knew why.
00:44:57Wish I'd known.
00:44:59Don't know how this affects your chances for the...
00:45:01Oh, I do. I...
00:45:03I had a meeting with Mr. Donaldson, the solicitor.
00:45:06Apparently I...
00:45:07Should have claimed off my mother's estate.
00:45:09Very little chance of that now.
00:45:13You take it all very calmly.
00:45:17I don't need the money.
00:45:19I've got more than I know what to do with.
00:45:21Can't buy John back for me.
00:45:25He's that special.
00:45:29He knew me before I...
00:45:31I was what I am today.
00:45:39What do you think, Gilda?
00:45:43I don't know.
00:45:45Find out.
00:45:47What do you think, Gilda?
00:45:49Please.
00:45:55Hello.
00:45:57Gilda, are you feeling all right?
00:46:01Have you come to collect some...
00:46:03I've got two suits.
00:46:07Your wife was in a Friday.
00:46:09I know.
00:46:11She was telling me about the martyr.
00:46:13I think we're in the same business.
00:46:15I hear you've inherited a lot.
00:46:19Yes.
00:46:21A man I was once very close to.
00:46:23Mulholland.
00:46:25M-U-L-L.
00:46:27Pardon?
00:46:29That was him in the shop.
00:46:31Same time as me, I took note of his name.
00:46:33Funny thing, that.
00:46:35Him having to spell it to you.
00:46:37What did you want?
00:46:39Money?
00:46:43No.
00:46:44Just a talk, really.
00:46:46I have to talk to somebody.
00:46:48Come back the day after tomorrow.
00:46:50Go.
00:46:52It's me.
00:46:54Somebody knows.
00:46:56I mean, who would have thought Keith Brennan was involved with our Miss Clean Easy?
00:46:58You think he killed Kirsty King and Prince Abson?
00:47:00Well, if he did, she'd put him up to it.
00:47:02So where does Olive McQueen's murder come into it?
00:47:06Can't figure that one out.
00:47:08Let's bring him in.
00:47:10And I'll let the other one.
00:47:12We can't afford to.
00:47:14We'll catch them together.
00:47:16We'll catch them together.
00:47:18Mate.
00:47:19Oh.
00:47:20Oh.
00:47:21Come.
00:47:22Oh.
00:47:23Tell me.
00:47:25Tom?
00:47:27Come in.
00:47:28Oh?
00:47:29Honey.
00:47:34Michael.
00:47:35Oh, look.
00:47:36We've got about to get shattered.
00:47:37What?
00:47:38Right.
00:47:39We want you to get out of here.
00:47:40Is to mess down the portal.
00:47:43I have two quarters.
00:47:44Nate.
00:47:55There he goes.
00:47:56The second time in three days empty-handed.
00:47:59I wouldn't have thought Keith had the courage to come out of work.
00:48:02Or the brains.
00:48:04Right, let's get it.
00:48:05There's 20,000 there. Now go.
00:48:14It won't be a minute.
00:48:17Hello, Mr. Taggart.
00:48:19Hello.
00:48:20You're a frequent visitor in here, Keith.
00:48:23You must have an awful lot of dirty washing.
00:48:25I've just come for my suits.
00:48:27That'll be five pounds. I won't keep you a minute.
00:48:29Don't worry.
00:48:30Oh, left a couple of photographs in one of the pockets.
00:48:44What'll he get?
00:48:53A murder GBH for the telecom engineer.
00:48:57And for you. Conspiracy to murder your wife.
00:49:01Why did he say nothing?
00:49:03Well, it was obviously made the 999 call.
00:49:06And we told him he might get off with culpable homicide.
00:49:09After which he had the brains to keep his mouth shut about the telecom engineer.
00:49:13He didn't mean to kill Olive.
00:49:16She must have surprised him.
00:49:24I hope wherever that kid's going, you go too, Keith.
00:49:34The conversation you overheard.
00:49:36You're quite sure Mulholland started to spell his name?
00:49:40I'm sure.
00:49:44We were watching two different football matches, sir.
00:49:47They got their bows crossed.
00:49:49Does Dorothy Milner know we're onto her?
00:49:51No.
00:49:52She doesn't even know she helped us to catch Keith.
00:49:55And we believed her story about knowing Mulholland's.
00:49:58It didn't seem important at the time, but...
00:50:01When I was checking on Keith's alibi, Dorothy Milner shut up shop.
00:50:05For no apparent reason.
00:50:07There was a woman about to come in.
00:50:10It was as if she didn't want me to meet her.
00:50:15Why didn't you mention this earlier?
00:50:17I wish I could remember something about her.
00:50:19Think.
00:50:20See that?
00:50:21Semper vigilo.
00:50:23Always I watch.
00:50:24Always wondered what that meant.
00:50:27I only saw for a second.
00:50:29She didn't look as if...
00:50:32As if she'd just been to the hairdressers.
00:50:34There's one in the precinct.
00:50:36Check out tomorrow.
00:50:40You know, Eleanor...
00:50:41I've never said this to you before.
00:50:45I think you just wasted six years of your life
00:50:47hoping that you and John would get back together again.
00:50:51You've always avoided him, haven't you?
00:50:54And I never had much in common with John.
00:50:57Or with Frank, for that matter.
00:50:59They put up substandard housing.
00:51:01You designed beautiful cakes.
00:51:05And I don't suppose we ever will know the truth about your mother.
00:51:11She was always so proper.
00:51:14Shoes neatly placed together, fingernails scrubbed before dinner.
00:51:17Oh, and your children, everything seems so right.
00:51:21Unquestionable.
00:51:23Keep this paper tight if you see Mrs. Sargell.
00:51:40Come on.
00:51:41Mrs. Sampson.
00:51:43Inspector.
00:51:45It's all right, Don.
00:51:46I'm not leaving.
00:51:48I want to talk to Mr. Taggart privately.
00:51:50Well, if you're sure.
00:51:51I'm not going to be whisked away to Siberia.
00:51:55Won't you sit down?
00:51:57Where's Graham?
00:51:58In the bath.
00:52:00Are you coming to the funeral?
00:52:01Yes, that's usual procedure.
00:52:03I'm not leaving.
00:52:04I'm not leaving.
00:52:05Inspector.
00:52:06Inspector.
00:52:07Inspector.
00:52:08Inspector.
00:52:09Inspector.
00:52:10That's usual procedure.
00:52:12What about your neighbour?
00:52:14He's following a new lead that's a...
00:52:16It's called delegation.
00:52:21I still feel it's hanging over me.
00:52:24It's like having murder not proven against you.
00:52:26People will always think I did it.
00:52:30Audiences will come to the opera for all the wrong reasons.
00:52:33Oh, I doubt that.
00:52:36Why have you helped me?
00:52:38Let's just say I'm an admirer of yours.
00:52:41My admirers don't fall asleep in the front row.
00:52:44Semper vigilo.
00:52:48Listen.
00:52:52We know Dorothy Milner is lying.
00:52:54She never knew your father.
00:52:56Somebody put her up to that story.
00:52:58Somebody who knew it couldn't be disproved.
00:52:59Or thought it couldn't.
00:53:01Or thought it couldn't.
00:53:05And, er...
00:53:07That somebody...
00:53:09knew your father well.
00:53:14Well, was her hair straightish or sorta curly?
00:53:18Curly.
00:53:19I think.
00:53:21Well, it could be one of those six.
00:53:23They were all in that morning.
00:53:53I'm sorry.
00:53:54It's a strange thing.
00:53:56Oh, my God.
00:53:57Oh, my God.
00:54:01Oh, my God.
00:54:04Oh, my God.
00:54:06Oh, my God.
00:54:08Oh, my God.
00:54:10Oh, my God.
00:54:12Ooh, my God.
00:54:14Oh, my God.
00:54:17Thank you, Lord.
00:54:18Let's go.
00:54:48Sorry to bother you. Is Mrs Marthel?
00:54:50She's at what?
00:54:51Where can I find her?
00:54:52What's she done?
00:54:54Part in another double yellow?
00:54:55Nothing like that.
00:54:57She's at the surgery. It's just up the road.
00:54:59Who's surgery is that?
00:55:00She's the receptionist at Dr Meadon's.
00:55:18She's at the surgery.
00:55:48I'm putting you through.
00:56:02Yes.
00:56:02I'm sorry, please.
00:56:04This is very important.
00:56:07You're Mrs Marr?
00:56:09Yes.
00:56:10I was in here about four weeks ago.
00:56:11I remember.
00:56:13A week ago last Tuesday, you went to the dry cleaners in the precinct after you'd been to the hairdresser's.
00:56:17What is this all about?
00:56:18Is that right?
00:56:19Yes.
00:56:20I should remember.
00:56:22I got the door shut in my face.
00:56:24Do you know Dorothy Milner, who owns the shop?
00:56:27Yes.
00:56:28She's a patient here.
00:56:29Well, she was.
00:56:31I haven't seen her for some time.
00:56:33Would you check her file, please?
00:56:41There's nothing in her file.
00:56:44It's missing.
00:56:44But she was a patient of Dr. McNaughton.
00:56:47Yes.
00:56:49Where is he?
00:56:50Oh, he's at Mr Mulholland's funeral.
00:56:53Oh, he's at Mr. McNaughton.
00:57:23He's at this store for some time.
00:57:27I'm asleep in all around, I see.
00:57:30O, how blue changes, if not How came to see you.
00:57:45Oh, I who were you.
00:57:48Oh, I was a Dean.
00:57:50I was a Dean.
00:57:51Let's go.
00:58:21I need some information urgently from Dr. Andrews.
00:58:49It's about a drug called suxamethonium bromide.
00:58:53Did you get that?
00:58:54Acknowledged.
00:58:55Tell him it's for use in anaesthesia.
00:58:57Ask him what it does.
00:59:00Would a Dr. Normandy carry it?
00:59:01And could the burning on my hole inside have disguised a hypodermic needle track?
00:59:06And tell him it is urgent.
00:59:07He wants to know what?
00:59:11Uh-huh.
00:59:12Uh-huh.
00:59:14What does he think I am?
00:59:15So that's how he got their signatures.
00:59:33Any word yet from Dr. Andrews?
00:59:35Let us pray.
00:59:37Now, Father, in these difficult moments of farewell, give us the grace we need so that in faith we may be able to release our lost one to you, confident in the knowledge that he is in your care and everlasting peace.
00:59:53Through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
00:59:56Amen.
00:59:56Will you please stand?
01:00:00For as much it hath pleased Almighty God to take unto himself the soul of our brother here departed, we therefore commit his body to be dissolved, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, and sure as...
01:00:14Right. Tell him I've found it.
01:00:16Sucks a methonium bromide.
01:00:18It's a drug used in anesthesia to cause muscle relaxation during surgery.
01:00:23Too much can cause death by failure of the chest muscle to maintain breathing.
01:00:27It's virtually undetectable.
01:00:30Tell him now that we know what we're looking for, we can find a trace.
01:00:34But we'll prove nothing without his body.
01:00:36The judge understood. Please acknowledge.
01:00:45Forever and ever. Amen.
01:00:54Police!
01:00:55Can you get that body out of there?
01:00:56You're choking. It's like a raging inferno in there.
01:00:59He's dark.
01:01:01In here.
01:01:06I hope you're not late for your own.
01:01:12I thought he was in there.
01:01:15They've got our bike law.
01:01:18Used...
01:01:20...suximethonium bromide.
01:01:24Aye.
01:01:25Had to be something.
01:01:28McNaughton was the only man in that chapel that never looked once at mess clean easy.
01:01:33And who else had the opportunity to intercept the confirmation from the bank?
01:01:39Our Dr. McNaughton always on the hall it first thing in the morning.
01:01:44Come on, let's get out of here.
01:02:03I'd like to ask you a few questions about Frank Mulholland's death.
01:02:06Who's broken into the bag? And the car?
01:02:08We know how he died.
01:02:10I don't know what you're talking about.
01:02:12Your father had the practice before you?
01:02:13Yes.
01:02:15If Mulholland had his suspicions about a certain family secret,
01:02:18what better person to confide in?
01:02:21We'd only take a simple test.
01:02:23I still don't know what you're talking about.
01:02:25We've still got a body.
01:02:27Jim.
01:02:29Come around.
01:02:30If Mulholland had his suspicions about a certain family secret,
01:02:32what better person to confide in?
01:02:35We'd only take a simple test.
01:02:38I still don't know what you're talking about.
01:02:41We've still got a body.
01:02:45Jim.
01:02:46Come on, let me go!
01:02:48Let me go!
01:02:49Let me go!
01:02:50Let me go!
01:02:52Let me go!
01:03:16I thought I'd committed the perfect murder.
01:03:33You did.
01:03:35Unfortunately, someone else's got in the way.
01:03:46Let me go!
01:03:56Let me go!
01:03:58Let me go!
