00:00:00Stay where you are!
00:00:23What the hell are you doing here, Cordelia?
00:00:24What did you come here for?
00:00:26Was it to kill me or was it just to scare me away?
00:00:28What the hell are you talking about?
00:00:29I had no idea you were even here.
00:00:31You're lying.
00:00:32Sophie must have told you.
00:00:33Sophie?
00:00:35I haven't even talked to Sophie.
00:00:38She's been rather cool with me ever since I admitted I couldn't stand Mark.
00:00:42Hugo?
00:00:45Look, we just came here to get Isabel's painting.
00:00:49That one.
00:00:51Hugo!
00:00:52Hang on a second.
00:00:54You'll never guess who I've found.
00:00:56Why would Mark have Isabel's painting?
00:01:00She lent it to him.
00:01:02To cheer him up, I suppose.
00:01:03She can be very kind and generous, you know, when she feels like it.
00:01:10Don't worry.
00:01:11I don't suppose she ever actually went to bed with him.
00:01:13There's a painting in Mark's bedroom in yours, Isabel.
00:01:17Oh, yes.
00:01:17Well, then why did you come to get it in the middle of the night?
00:01:20Why not during the day?
00:01:21It was Hugo's idea.
00:01:22He did not want anyone to see us and wonder why we are here.
00:01:23Why tonight?
00:01:24We were at the stupid ball.
00:01:25It was on our way home.
00:01:26Just tell me what happened the night Mark died, Isabel.
00:01:39When you visited him here.
00:01:42I did not visit him.
00:01:43I told you the other night.
00:01:45We were at the theatre with Davy and Sophie.
00:01:47Don't you ever believe anyone?
00:01:49Not when they're lying, no.
00:01:50I'm going to see Dr. Callender tomorrow.
00:01:58If you don't tell me the truth, I'll tell him that you're both involved in his son's death.
00:02:04It'll be up to him if he phones the police.
00:02:07But if he does, I'm afraid that Isabel won't stand up to even five minutes' interrogation.
00:02:12You won't let her with you.
00:02:16You do realise that they've found traces of lipstick on Mark?
00:02:19Same colour as Isabel's.
00:02:22Hugo.
00:02:27OK, OK.
00:02:30I could do with a drink, Cordelia.
00:02:35Well, go on, then.
00:02:38You're right.
00:02:41Isabel didn't come to the theatre with us.
00:02:42What are you saying?
00:02:43I did book four tickets, but Isabel isn't very keen on shows with a cast of less than 50,
00:02:49so at the last moment she pretended she had a headache.
00:02:52I did have a headache.
00:02:53And as soon as we left for our dose of culture, she popped off to see Mark.
00:02:58Isn't that right?
00:03:03What time was this?
00:03:04Just after half past seven.
00:03:06What happened?
00:03:11He was already dead.
00:03:14His body was hanging from the belt.
00:03:20Come on.
00:03:22You've got to tell her now.
00:03:24Being rich and beautiful can't protect you from real life forever.
00:03:27When I found Mark, he did not look like he did later.
00:03:35He had nothing on except for black brassiere and black lace panties.
00:03:41And there was lipstick all over his mouth like a clown.
00:03:44There were pictures of naked women on the table there.
00:03:48He asphyxiated himself.
00:03:50It's supposed to increase sexual satisfaction.
00:03:53Apparently quite common these days.
00:03:55So you're saying that Mark's death was an accident?
00:04:02Obviously.
00:04:03It was just horrible bad luck.
00:04:07He must have slipped or the belt must have got too tight.
00:04:15I don't believe it.
00:04:19What happened next then?
00:04:22She came back to the theatre and found us
00:04:24and all four of us drove back here.
00:04:26Why?
00:04:27Do you mean why?
00:04:29We didn't want him to be found like that.
00:04:32It was my idea, actually.
00:04:33I thought the least we could do
00:04:35was to get his own clothes back on him
00:04:36and get rid of the lipstick.
00:04:38Okay, I didn't like him.
00:04:41But I'm not a complete bastard, despite what you think.
00:04:43He...
00:04:43He didn't deserve to be remembered like that.
00:04:47When we came back,
00:04:49Mark wasn't dressed like he was before.
00:04:54What do you mean?
00:04:55He was dressed in his jeans.
00:04:57There was no make-up, no naked pictures.
00:05:02So someone else had changed him?
00:05:05Yes.
00:05:06And there was a typed note, too, in verse.
00:05:08The suicide note, are you sure it wasn't there before?
00:05:13I think I'm sure, but how can I be completely sure?
00:05:16Well, I've told you everything now, really.
00:05:30Well, that's good.
00:05:32So, er, what are you planning to do about it?
00:05:35I'll think of something.
00:05:39You still don't really believe us, do you?
00:05:40You haven't exactly gone out of your way
00:05:45to tell me the whole truth, have you?
00:05:50Good night.
00:05:53If someone did kill Mark,
00:05:55it was not an accident.
00:05:57You will find them, won't you?
00:06:08Hugo, wait!
00:06:10Get off me!
00:06:40Get off me!
00:07:00Get off me!
00:07:01You're getting me!
00:07:03Please!
00:07:05No!
00:07:06Yeah!

00:22:02Oh, my God.
00:22:32I think I'd better take that.
00:22:39I think I'd better take that, don't you?
00:22:46I think I'd better take that.
00:22:55I think I'd better take that, don't you?
00:23:05I think I'd better take that, don't you?
00:23:12I can't see him.
00:23:13I can't see him.
00:23:14I can't see him.
00:23:15I can't see him.
00:23:19I tried to stop her.
00:23:20I can't see him.
00:23:26I tried to stop her.
00:23:27I tried to stop her.
00:23:28I can't see him.
00:23:29I can't see him.
00:23:35So, why this dramatic appearance at such a ridiculous hour.
00:23:38If it's to report that, if it's to report that the police have already told me.
00:23:45Or have your investigations turned up something pertinent at last?
00:23:50What did you expect me to discover?
00:23:51What did you expect me to discover?
00:23:53Something more than childish fantasy.
00:23:56Clearly you've achieved nothing.
00:23:58I made a mistake with you.
00:24:00But thank you for your time and effort.
00:24:03I thought you wanted to know what I'd discovered.
00:24:07What?
00:24:08More bizarre fantasies about Mark being murdered?
00:24:13He was murdered.
00:24:15He was murdered by someone he knew so well that he didn't hesitate to let them into the summer house.
00:24:20And then he was strangled.
00:24:23Or suffocated.
00:24:26And strung up by his own belt.
00:24:28The murderer put lipstick on him.
00:24:31Dressed him in women's underclothes.
00:24:34And spread naked pictures over the table.
00:24:36So it'd look like he'd strangled himself accidentally during a sexual experiment.
00:24:43It's quite common, I believe.
00:24:45What are you talking about?
00:24:46Women's underclothes.
00:24:47He wasn't found like that.
00:24:49Of course he wasn't.
00:24:52But that's why you employed me, isn't it?
00:24:55The real reason, I mean.
00:24:56Because you wanted to know why he hadn't been found in just the way you'd left him.
00:25:01You were desperate to know what happened to him after you killed him, weren't you?
00:25:05Must be that much admired scientific curiosity of yours.
00:25:09I employed you as a rather shameful but necessary public relations exercise to satisfy my backers.
00:25:17All right.
00:25:18Let's endow your hypothesis for a moment.
00:25:25What happened next?
00:25:27After this obscene murder?
00:25:30Someone came to the summer house and found Mark.
00:25:34They were so shocked that they went for help so that they could at least make him look decent.
00:25:39But when they came back, they found that someone else had done the job for them.
00:25:46Who were all these people?
00:25:48I'm not at liberty to tell you.
00:25:50You don't really know much, do you, Miss Gray?
00:25:59Certainly not enough to convict whoever might have done this terrible thing to Mark.
00:26:04Not even enough to have them committed for trial, I should say.
00:26:06All you've done is antagonize me and a number of others with your extraordinary notions.
00:26:13I also know why you killed him.
00:26:16At first I thought it was because Mark had discovered that you weren't his father, but that didn't make any sense.
00:26:21He'd found out that your wife wasn't his mother, hadn't he?
00:26:25And that terrified you.
00:26:27Why should that affect me one way or the other?
00:26:30Of course it terrified you. You were petrified that Mark would make it all public.
00:26:33And then what would that nice Christian lady from the Wolvington Trust say?
00:26:38Fraud?
00:26:40Illegitimacy? And a father who'd lied to his son all his life about who his real mother was?
00:26:45You'd have had to kiss goodbye to that money that she'd promised you.
00:26:48And then what would happen to your precious laboratory?
00:26:50The only thing that you've ever really cared about in your life.
00:26:53I was at a college dinner on the night that Mark died, as numerous people will confirm.
00:26:58You killed Mark before the dinner.
00:26:59You got Lunn to ring you during the meal and pretend to be Mark wanting to talk to you.
00:27:03That's your alibi.
00:27:04But then you discovered that somebody had found Mark's body during the evening.
00:27:07So you had to tell Benskin the truth, that it was really Lunn and not your son who rang.
00:27:13Don't you find it distasteful to talk like that about a man who's just died?
00:27:17He was my right hand.
00:27:20Quite brilliant in his way.
00:27:23And without him, you don't have a shred of evidence.
00:27:28Merely slanderous allegations.
00:27:31And if you repeat a word of them outside this room, I'll destroy any reputation you might have
00:27:37and bankrupt your sorry little business.
00:27:40How can you talk so calmly?
00:27:42Mark was your son. He was your son!
00:27:46You've really no conception of the importance of the work we do here.
00:27:50Mark's death was necessary.
00:27:53Unlike most deaths, it served a purpose. It was for the public good.
00:27:56For the good of humanity, if you like. He should have been proud to die in such a cause.
00:28:00You didn't think to ask him first.
00:28:01It's not as if he was...
00:28:04How shall I put it?
00:28:07He wasn't a very valuable individual.
00:28:10In fact, he was a self-righteous prig.
00:28:14Who would seriously mourn his loss for more than five minutes?
00:28:18Isn't that what one has to ask?
00:28:20I'm afraid I didn't love him.
00:28:22Yes, I can see from the conventional look of shock on your face that you think I should have.
00:28:27What can I say?
00:28:29I'm a scientist, I report what I find, and I find that I didn't love him.
00:28:34Not at all.
00:28:35And if his own father didn't love him, who else would?
00:28:38Who else would?
00:28:46Oh, my...
00:28:48Oh...
00:28:54Oh...
00:29:00Mark was your son, wasn't he?
00:29:03His son and mine.
00:29:05I've only ever loved two people.
00:29:11Both of them are now dead.
00:29:18I found this in his dress suit.
00:29:20The one he wore to the college dinner the night Mark died.
00:29:25It was your lipstick.
00:29:29And you wiped it off Mark when you found him.
00:29:31Change him into decent clothes, yes.
00:29:36Try to give him back some dignity.
00:29:42What are you doing?
00:29:44Phoning the police.
00:29:46Why?
00:29:48Why not?
00:29:49What does it matter now?
00:29:52Losing your freedom matters.
00:29:55Going to prison matters.
00:29:56Do you think Mark would have wanted his mother sent to prison?
00:30:02Do you want the whole world knowing how horribly your son died and who killed him?
00:30:07Tell me what I have to do.
00:30:15Is there...
00:30:17Is there anyone else in the house?
00:30:19No.
00:30:22Right then, we...
00:30:24We have to act quickly and...
00:30:26And we have to trust each other.
00:30:27What are you doing?
00:30:37I think there's a firing residue.
00:30:40And I think the police can test for it.
00:30:44Now, wash your hands and, er...
00:30:47And...
00:30:49Get me a thin pair of gloves.
00:30:51Do as I say, quickly!
00:30:53Oh, God.
00:31:13Hello!
00:31:14I don't know.
00:31:44I've wiped off your fingerprints, but they'll expect to find mine on it.
00:32:01Did Mark ask you to come and see him the day he died?
00:32:06I told him I'd come round when I could.
00:32:09Perhaps he was going to tell you that he knew you were his mother.
00:32:14You'd better put these back where you found them, and the lipstick.
00:32:36Then what?
00:32:41Then we work out our story.
00:32:44And then you call the police.
00:32:45We don't talk to each other once they get here.
00:32:58We don't know each other.
00:33:00We don't even like each other.
00:33:04If this works out, Miss Gray,
00:33:06there are things I suppose you have a right to know.
00:33:09Will you tell the court how you came to be in possession of a gun, Miss Gray?
00:33:33My employer, Bernie Pride, left it to me when he committed suicide.
00:33:41I knew it was illegal, I'm afraid.
00:33:44I should have handed it over to the police, but I didn't.
00:33:48I've no excuses.
00:33:49You said that Dr. Callender took the gun from you when you first met.
00:33:55That seems an extraordinary thing to do.
00:33:57Why did he do that?
00:33:58He said he thought that being a private investigator must be an especially difficult job for a woman.
00:34:04I said that was a rather old-fashioned point of view.
00:34:08And anyway, if I had any problems, I had Bernie's gun.
00:34:11He didn't like that at all.
00:34:16He said he wouldn't employ anyone who had a firearm, and he made me hand it over.
00:34:21So what did he do with the gun after he'd taken it from him?
00:34:25He took it out of the room.
00:34:27I don't know where he put it.
00:34:29Did you ever see it again, before you found the body?
00:34:31No, never. Not until then.
00:34:34Will you tell the court how you came to be in Dr. Callender's house at the time of his death?
00:34:38I'd come to say that I was giving up the case.
00:34:44I hadn't discovered anything, and I'd come to the conclusion that it was wrong,
00:34:50taking money for prying into his son's private life.
00:34:55I'd been up all night worrying about it.
00:34:57That's why I was there so stupidly early.
00:35:00How did Dr. Callender seem when you spoke to him?
00:35:03Tired and depressed.
00:35:05All he could talk about was that his lab assistant had just been killed in a car accident.
00:35:11Was Dr. Callender usually such an emotional man?
00:35:14I believe not.
00:35:16In fact, Miss Leeming, his assistant, was shocked by the change in him.
00:35:21She was saying just that as we walked out of the car,
00:35:24and that's when we heard the shot.
00:35:27She'll have to be grateful to you for the rest of my life.
00:35:33I'm not sure I like that.
00:35:36I'm not sure I like being charged with the legal possession of a firearm,
00:35:39but I'll live with it.
00:35:42Anyway, there's no need to be grateful.
00:35:44I did it for Mark, not you.
00:35:46There's your payment.
00:35:54You did what Ronald asked.
00:35:57You said there were things I had a right to know.
00:36:02About you and Mark, I assume.
00:36:05Ronald was desperate for a son, you see.
00:36:13Mainly because Evelyn's father had promised her half a million if she had one.
00:36:18I discovered I was pregnant about the same time she learned she was never going to conceive.
00:36:25It was so easy.
00:36:26She pretended she was pregnant.
00:36:30I took a flat in Camden, and then every couple of months the three of us flew to Italy.
00:36:35Where I'd become Mrs. Callender, she'd be me.
00:36:38Then when she got back to England, she put on a bit more padding.
00:36:41How could she put up with anything so humiliating?
00:36:44Because she loved Ronald and didn't want to lose him.
00:36:48And of course she was religious.
00:36:50She was practicing self-deception.
00:36:52June, she persuaded herself it was all best for the child.
00:36:58And she did get the child.
00:37:03For nine months.
00:37:05Until she died.
00:37:08Did he kill her?
00:37:11No.
00:37:13He wasn't always such a monster.
00:37:16I wouldn't have loved him if he had been.
00:37:17He grew worse, more frustrated as the years went by.
00:37:23He had to accept that he wasn't great after all.
00:37:39What?
00:37:41Can I ask you something?
00:37:42Did you really tell Dr. Callender that you weren't going on with the case?
00:37:49Well, I know you said you did, at the inquest.
00:37:53But I've got to know you a bit better since Bernie died.
00:37:58And I think you're temperamentally incapable of giving up on a case once you've committed yourself to it.
00:38:03I think it's a great quality, and whatever it is you did find out, I'm not trying to wheedle it out of you.
00:38:14Grey's Detective Agency.
00:38:17Yes?
00:38:18I'll put her on.
00:38:22Chief Superintendent Ferguson.
00:38:30Hello?
00:38:30Hello?
00:38:33Yes, yes, I could do that.
00:38:36Goodbye.
00:38:44He'd like to see me at New Scotland Yard.
00:38:47Wednesday at four.
00:38:50Not much of a one-for-small talk, is he?
00:38:54I understand from Sergeant Maskell of the Cambridge Police that, er, you told him you suspected Mark Callender was murdered.
00:39:00But you didn't mention it to the police after Dr. Callender's death, or at the inquest. Why was that?
00:39:08Because I decided that I was wrong.
00:39:11Really?
00:39:12Yes.
00:39:14Really.
00:39:14Really.
00:39:14I've carried out a few investigations myself, Miss Grey.
00:39:20Just before Dr. Callender's death, you managed to trace Mark's mother's old nurse.
00:39:25And you asked her about his childhood and his parents' marriage.
00:39:30You also tracked down the doctor who looked after Mark's mother when she was ill.
00:39:35Then you rang Dr. Callender's doctor and found out his blood grew.
00:39:38Oh, and I believe your secretary obtained a copy of Mark's grandfather's will.
00:39:45She's not my secretary. She's my assistant.
00:39:50Well, why did you do all that if it wasn't to find out who would gain most from Mark's death?
00:39:56Well, that's just the point.
00:39:57I found out that no one stood to gain by it, as I'm perfectly sure that you did, too.
00:40:06So why didn't you tell the police about your fall down the well?
00:40:13It was an accident.
00:40:15I wasn't aware that I'd broken any law by falling down a well.
00:40:19Why should I tell them about it?
00:40:21Miss Markland said that after she rescued you, she wanted to stay with you.
00:40:26But you insisted you'd be fine.
00:40:28You said you weren't afraid because you had a gun.
00:40:31Is that right?
00:40:32It's right that I said it, yes.
00:40:35But you told the inquest Dr. Callender had taken your gun.
00:40:41That's right.
00:40:44Miss Markland's an extremely disturbed woman.
00:40:48Well, I'd have said anything to get away from her.
00:40:53She was sobbing about her dead child.
00:40:56She actually thought that I was her child.
00:41:00So what about the motorist who came up to you when you were asleep in your car a few hours later?
00:41:06He'd telephoned the police from a service station,
00:41:08reporting he'd been threatened by a dark-haired young woman with a gun.
00:41:14Do you deny that?
00:41:16Of course I do.
00:41:18He was drunk.
00:41:20I'm surprised he remembered anything.
00:41:23I threatened him with a spanner, actually.
00:41:27One I keep in the car, especially for people like him.
00:41:30I only wish I'd had the chance to hit him with it.
00:41:34Would you like to hear my scenario for the next events?
00:41:40Yes.
00:41:41I think Mr. Lunn threw you into the well.
00:41:49Then replaced the cover and came back later on to take it off again so it would look like an accident.
00:41:55You threatened him with a gun, but he escaped.
00:41:58Somehow.
00:41:59And you followed him.
00:42:00Which is why he was driving so fast when he crashed.
00:42:03I wasn't following him.
00:42:06I was going to see Dr. Callender.
00:42:08At six in the morning.
00:42:09I'd almost died.
00:42:11It was an accident, but I was still in a state of shock.
00:42:14Look, I was going to tell him that I couldn't go on with the case.
00:42:18It was one of Bernie's rules.
00:42:21You remember Bernie?
00:42:22Always keep the client informed of any major developments.
00:42:27At six in the morning, Miss Gray.
00:42:29I was going to see you in a while.
00:42:59What have you been keeping from me, Cordelia?
00:43:13It's something serious, isn't it?
00:43:16It must be.
00:43:18Well, Ferguson wouldn't want to see you again.
00:43:20I think he just wants a few more points clarified.
00:43:24And is that what he wanted yesterday?
00:43:27In a way.
00:43:29This does concern me.
00:43:33If you are determined to destroy this agency, I have a right to know.
00:43:37And it isn't just me.
00:43:38It's what Bernie put into it.
00:43:40If you want to know what I think, I think it would be a terrible chaise!
00:43:51You see, I think Miss Leeming killed Dr. Callender and you took pity on her.
00:43:55You cleaned the gun and then put it into Dr. Callender's hand so that his prints were on it.
00:43:59You made Miss Leeming wipe the firing residue off her hand onto his, which was particularly clever of you.
00:44:08That makes you an accessory after the fact, Miss Gray.
00:44:12Do you know how many years you can get for helping conceal a murder?
00:44:15You've, you've, you've no evidence.
00:44:20Nothing at all.
00:44:23Nor do we have any witnesses.
00:44:25To any of it.
00:44:27First Lund, now Miss Leeming.
00:44:29She killed herself last night.
00:44:31Sleeping pills washed down with whiskey in her son's bedroom.
00:44:35Mark was her son, wasn't he?
00:44:42I wanted you to know straight away.
00:44:44She, she, she didn't kill Callender.
00:44:48He took the gun from me.
00:44:50He took the gun.
00:44:51As you said at the inquest.
00:44:53No, he did.
00:44:54He took the gun.
00:44:54You don't have to come this afternoon.
00:44:56I shan't be needing you anymore.
00:44:58It's finished, as far as I'm concerned.
00:45:03Why did you sack Bernie?
00:45:04He, all he ever wanted was to be a detective, and you wouldn't give him the chance.
00:45:14It wasn't quite as simple as that.
00:45:17Though I did get rid of him, it's true.
00:45:21Why?
00:45:24If you really have to know, he was fine in uniform.
00:45:28But once he was in plain clothes, he was out of his depth.
00:45:31I kept him on as long as I could.
00:45:36Too long, very likely.
00:45:40I'll say one thing for him, though.
00:45:42I'd have never believed he was such a good teacher.
00:46:01You all right?
00:46:12I'll be fine.
00:46:20We live to fight another day, do we?
00:46:26Quite possibly.
00:46:26Why don't you take the rest of the day off?
00:46:33You sure?
00:46:35Turn off your Amstrad and go.
00:46:39Is there any I can get you before I go?
00:46:41Yes.
00:46:43The calendar file, please.
00:46:44You're not going to stay up all night, are you?
00:46:56Not long, I promise.
00:47:01Thank you, Edith.
00:47:20I don't know.
00:47:50I don't know.
00:48:20I don't know.
00:48:21I don't know.
00:48:22I don't know.
00:48:23Good morning.
00:48:24I'm all right.
00:48:25Good morning.
00:48:26Good morning.
00:48:27Good morning.
00:48:28Good morning.
00:48:29Good morning.
00:48:30Good morning.
00:48:31Good morning.
00:48:32Hope I didn't pick you up last night.
00:48:34Er, no.
00:48:35No, not at all.
00:48:36I'm glad.
00:48:37See you later.
00:48:38Bye.
00:48:49Move what you want.
00:48:50Do any of you want a cup of tea?
00:48:51Yes, please.
00:48:52I'll issue this, please.
00:48:53I might be spending a lot more time in here in future.
00:48:57Actually, I might very well move my bed in.
00:48:59Oh, the builders.
00:49:00Just think how nice it'll look when they're finished.
00:49:01How are you supposed to keep saying when you're up all night?
00:49:02And then when you get to bed, there's a baby screaming its head off.
00:49:03It was really kind and generous of you, renting your flat to a single mother.
00:49:04Edith, I needed to rent it out.
00:49:05Edith, I just happened to be a single mother.
00:49:07Wait, wait, wait.
00:49:08No, I don't want to wait.
00:49:09I don't want to talk.
00:49:10I just want to lie down for ten minutes and then I'll be all right.
00:49:13I'll be all right.
00:49:22I'll be all right.
00:49:23I'll be all right.
00:49:24Okay.
00:49:25I'll be all right.
00:49:26Good morning, good morning.
00:49:27Good morning.
00:49:28Good morning.
00:49:29Good morning.
00:49:30Good morning.
00:49:31Good morning.
00:49:32Why didn't you tell me?
00:49:34Because you didn't give me the chance.
00:49:41Miss Gray?
00:49:43Yes, Cordelia Gray.
00:49:46How can I help you?
00:49:55All right.
00:50:02I need a woman detective, you see.
00:50:08Why a woman?
00:50:11I don't see how a man can possibly understand.
00:50:16And I wanted some outside the area.
00:50:22My name's Julia Hampson.
00:50:25My husband and I run a hotel near Bath.
00:50:35My husband has been sexually harassing female staff.
00:50:41He's been doing it for years now.
00:50:44I've put up with him screwing around for so long,
00:50:47hoping he'd grow out of it, I suppose,
00:50:49taking the coward's way out.
00:50:50So what happened that made you suddenly decide to do something about it?
00:50:55It wasn't suddenly.
00:50:57It's just that one day you realise that if it goes on much longer,
00:51:00there'll be nothing left of you.
00:51:02I want a divorce and I want him out of the hotel.
00:51:05It's my home.
00:51:06It's been my home for 20 years and he's solid it.
00:51:10So you want me to find evidence against him
00:51:12so that you can put pressure on him to agree to terms?
00:51:16Yes.
00:51:19It's what you do, isn't it?
00:51:23I'm sorry I'm not finding this very easy, Miss Gray.
00:51:28If you're not interested, please say so and I won't waste any more.
00:51:32No, it's not that I'm not interested.
00:51:34It's just that...
00:51:36I just need to be clear.
00:51:38Where would I find this evidence, Mrs. Hampson?
00:51:42Ask the girls, the ones he's done it to.
00:51:44Do any of them still work at the hotel?
00:51:47They won't speak to me. He's made damn sure they won't.
00:51:50And what about the ones who used to work at the hotel?
00:51:53I bumped into one a few months ago.
00:51:56Her name?
00:51:58Erica.
00:52:01Erica Goodwin.
00:52:03She used to work for us some years ago.
00:52:06Then she disappeared.
00:52:07My husband said he didn't know what had happened, but he was lying.
00:52:11How do you know he was lying?
00:52:14Because I've had practice.
00:52:17Are you married?
00:52:20No.
00:52:22No.
00:52:24Anyway, I saw her in the village.
00:52:27She'd come back.
00:52:29She ran off as soon as she saw me.
00:52:32He's a monster.
00:52:37I'm sorry.
00:52:39It must be dreadful for you, Mrs. Hampson.
00:52:44But it's really very difficult proving that somebody is a monster.
00:52:49I want you to come and work for us.
00:52:58I want you to be a holiday relief.
00:53:01Then you'll find out what he's like.
00:53:04Find out at first hand.
00:53:05Is she not?
00:53:07Is she not?
00:53:22I wonder if you can help me.
00:53:23My name's Cordelia Gray.
00:53:25I'm here to see Mrs. Hampson as we start work here tomorrow.
00:53:28Could you just wait over there, please?
00:53:30Yes.
00:53:31Can I help you, please?
00:53:32Can I help you, please?
00:53:33You really need to see someone, Julia.
00:53:37Yes, that's right.
00:53:38It's definitely different.
00:53:59Can I help you, please?
00:54:00You really need to see someone, Julia.
00:54:04You know that, don't you?
00:54:06I'm just not sure how much more I can do to help.
00:54:10Bastard!
00:54:12I'm sure I could find someone.
00:54:14Would you like me to?
00:54:18I wish you were bloody dead!
00:54:25Do you really think I'm going to let you get away with it?
00:54:27I'll show you your room, if you're ready.
00:54:28Yes, I'm sorry.
00:54:29I'll show you your room, if you're ready.
00:54:46Yes, I'm sorry.
00:54:47I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:54:50I'm sorry so much.
00:54:53I'm sorry, I'll show you.
00:54:55I'm sorry.
00:54:57I'm sorry, I'll show you so much.
00:55:02I can't wait until you see the detail!
00:55:05you know.
00:55:07You see I've actually had?
00:55:10I've never seen it.
00:55:11Look at your face.
00:55:13Oh, we've got two separate rooms, and this is on the other side of the room, yeah, right.
00:55:26Sorry.
00:55:27Sorry.
00:55:28Have you enjoyed your stay, madam?
00:55:32Thank you very much, madam.
00:55:34My wife?
00:55:35Yes.
00:55:36Cordelia Gray?
00:55:46Yes. Hello.
00:55:47Andrew Hampson. Pleased to meet you.
00:55:49Hello.
00:55:50My wife told me she'd taken you on. That's marvellous.
00:55:53You're all so busy this time of year. Be a great help.
00:55:56I don't actually know what my duties are.
00:56:00I was expecting to see Mrs. Hampson and that she'd tell me.
00:56:04Unfortunately, she's a little unwell at the moment.
00:56:07But I imagine she's dealt with all the boring stuff, like pay and references.
00:56:11If not, she'll have left detailed instructions.
00:56:14She's alarmingly reliable in her way.
00:56:16Thank you, sir. Bye-bye.
00:56:18Have you met Joanna?
00:56:19No, I haven't.
00:56:20Hello, Joanna.
00:56:21Nice to meet you.
00:56:22Thank you. Welcome to Blair Court Park.
00:56:24Cordelia.
00:56:25Joanna will know your rota.
00:56:27It's very kind of you. Thank you.
00:56:29Not at all.
00:56:30Just the softening up process.
00:56:32We'll have you screaming for mercy within days, won't we, Joanna?
00:56:34Oh, yes.
00:56:35Joanna's been here since she left school.
00:56:37She knows everything.
00:56:38I've got to go, I'm afraid.
00:56:39Yes, sir.
00:56:40If there's anything you need, any problem at any time, never be afraid to ask me.
00:56:48Cordelia.
00:56:49I'll show you around for your night.
00:56:50I'm fine.
00:56:51Wendy, if you could take over.
00:56:52Yes, thank you.
00:56:53During the day, you can help me in reception.
00:56:56And then you get a couple of hours off in the afternoon.
00:56:59Then you're in the bar.
00:57:01Room 7.
00:57:02You have worked in a bar, have you?
00:57:04Yes, I have.
00:57:05On several occasions.
00:57:07This is Tony.
00:57:08He's our comedy chef.
00:57:10Hello.
00:57:11And he works under Marcus, who's over here.
00:57:14Hello.
00:57:15How are you today?
00:57:16Hello.
00:57:17This is Cordelia Marcus.
00:57:18She's come to join us a bit.
00:57:20Nice to meet you, Marcus.
00:57:21Good morning, Mr. Walsh.
00:57:23How are you?
00:57:24We have a rather rapid turnover of staff, Cordelia.
00:57:27Conditions can be difficult.
00:57:29In what way?
00:57:30Oh, I'm sure you'll find out.
00:57:31So watch it.
00:57:33I'll take you round to the leisure centre.
00:57:40So do you know what's the matter with Mrs. Hampson?
00:57:42Did Mr. Hampson tell you?
00:57:44He said that she was unwell.
00:57:46Well, he should know, shouldn't he?
00:57:47I think she's unavailable.
00:57:48What is this?
00:57:49Are you some secret hotel inspector or something?
00:57:52I thought you were holiday relief.
00:57:56I suppose I'm just naturally inquisitive.
00:58:02It's open 24 hours a day.
00:58:04We can use it before 8 in the morning, after 10 at night.
00:58:08Saunas at the end.
00:58:10Why don't you use it, do you really?
00:58:11Some of your tensions at the end of the day, eh?
00:58:13Not in front of the customers, are you?
00:58:15Oh, of course.
00:58:18Right.
00:58:21Now this, this is definitely worth waiting for.
00:58:24Who is this gorgeous young thing?
00:58:26No, not actually you, Joanna.
00:58:30Philip Hampson, Cordelia Craig.
00:58:32Really?
00:58:33Philip is assistant manager.
00:58:34Yep.
00:58:35Nothing to do with talent.
00:58:36Sheer nepotism.
00:58:37But how do you do?
00:58:38How do you do?
00:58:39You Mr. and Mr. Hampson's son?
00:58:40I am.
00:58:41And you are indeed a new recruit.
00:58:42So poor you, I think.
00:58:43Yep.
00:58:44Well, I'm going to give Cordelia a little tour.
00:58:45You do whatever it is you do.
00:58:47One minute.
00:58:48Do you mind?
00:58:49Right.
00:58:50Ten minutes, Cordelia.
00:58:52That, that, that.
00:58:53Yeah.
00:58:54Are you not afraid now that I'm going to give you a hard time?
00:58:56Oh, I'm terrified.
00:58:57So, right.
00:59:00Tell me all your secrets.
00:59:01You're not going to, are you?
00:59:02No.
00:59:03Um, no wedding ring, no engagement ring.
00:59:08Have you got a boyfriend?
00:59:09Really?
00:59:21Hold that.
00:59:22Oh dear.
00:59:23Now, what on earth is all this for?
00:59:26It's for the Disraeli's suite.
00:59:28Which wall do you want it on?
00:59:29Don't ask me, Peter.
00:59:30I thought you worked here, Philip.
00:59:32Was that just a joke?
00:59:35Why don't you ask my mother?
00:59:36Yep.
00:59:37If you can, uh, if you can find the old cow.
00:59:39I mean, I'm sure if anybody can find her, you can.
00:59:49I'm Cordelia, I'm you.
00:59:50All right.
00:59:51What did he mean?
00:59:52Mm-hmm.
00:59:53If anyone can find her, you can.
00:59:54No idea.
00:59:55He just likes to stir things.
00:59:57Oh.
01:00:00Who's he?
01:00:01Peter Forbes.
01:00:02Yeah.
01:00:07There we are.
01:00:08Not too bad, is it?
01:00:09Mm-hmm.
01:00:10Okay.
01:00:11Now, if you could please fill in your details here.
01:00:15And then I can load the photograph later.
01:00:18And when you've done that, there we are.
01:00:20When you've done that, please come back into reception.
01:00:22Okay?
01:00:24All right.
01:00:25Hello.
01:00:26Hi.
01:00:27Can I help?
01:00:28No, no.
01:00:29I've, er...
01:00:30I've just had my photo taken.
01:00:31Nowhere near as good as in the flesh.
01:00:32See you later.
01:00:33Yes.
01:00:34Yes.
01:00:35Yes.
01:00:36Yes.
01:00:37Yes.
01:00:38Yes.
01:00:39Yes.
01:00:40Yes.
01:00:41Yes.
01:00:42Yes.
01:00:43Yes.
01:00:45Yes.
01:00:46Yes.
01:00:47Yes.
01:00:48Yes.
01:00:49Yes.
01:00:50Yes.
01:00:51Yes.
01:00:52Yes.
01:00:53Yes, yes.
01:00:54Yes.
01:00:55Do you know who?
01:00:57Yes, I hope.
01:00:59Yes.
01:01:00No, no.
01:01:01I've, er...
01:01:02I've just had my photo taken.
01:02:03Hello.
01:02:05I wonder if you could help me.
01:02:19Who are you?
01:02:21Oh, are they yours?
01:02:23They're lovely.
01:02:25They're twins.
01:02:27Yeah.
01:02:29My neighbour usually looks after them, only she's ill.
01:02:32I'm sorry.
01:02:33You're not allowed in here in the holidays.
01:02:35If anything happened, it would be my responsibility.
01:02:37I'm sorry.
01:02:38It's just that my son, Dominic, is starting here in September and we've only just moved
01:02:43here so I haven't had a chance to look around yet.
01:02:45Oh.
01:02:46How old's Dominic?
01:02:48He's four and a half.
01:02:53Maybe the caretaker could show you around.
01:02:56Right, yes.
01:02:57That would be great.
01:02:58I wonder if you could help me first.
01:03:00I really need a job.
01:03:02I've just got divorced.
01:03:04That's why I've moved up here.
01:03:06Everything's so much less expensive than in London.
01:03:09There's not much work around here.
01:03:12I was lucky to get this.
01:03:14Excuse me, I've got to get her.
01:03:18Right.
01:03:19Someone told me about a hotel up the road.
01:03:23What's it called?
01:03:25Uh, Clarecourt Park.
01:03:28That's it.
01:03:29Do you know anything about that?
01:03:31I'm sorry.
01:03:32What do you mean?
01:03:34Like what?
01:03:36Well, is there any work there?
01:03:40I've worked in a bar before, before I was married.
01:03:43I just wondered if it would be worth pursuing.
01:03:46Um...
01:03:49How should I know?
01:03:50It's...
01:03:51It's up to you.
01:03:55It's just that I heard that there might be problems
01:03:57with the man who runs the place.
01:03:59Well, that's the last thing I need.
01:04:01Who said that?
01:04:03Do you know anything about it?
01:04:05Who are you?
01:04:07Why are you asking me?
01:04:08Why?
01:04:09Who else should I ask?
01:04:10Who told you to come here?
01:04:11No one.
01:04:12Who else should I ask?
01:04:13Get out.
01:04:14Just a name.
01:04:15Just a...
01:04:16Get out!
01:04:17Just a name.
01:04:18You're trespassing.
01:04:19Please, just a name.
01:04:20Why don't you ask Sandra?
01:04:21Not me!
01:04:22Sandra who?
01:04:23Erica, please!
01:04:24Have you come to carry my case?
01:04:36What prompt service?
01:04:40I can see I'm going to enjoy myself here.
01:04:43Room 24, please.
01:04:44Cordelia, top of the stairs.
01:04:46Enjoy your stay.
01:04:48If you'd like to follow me.
01:04:49Extremely expensive, Cordelia.
01:04:50If you think that I'm paying for you coming here.
01:04:51I wouldn't dream of it.
01:04:52I wanted a little break.
01:04:53Have you worked here long, my dear?
01:04:55Don't overdo it.
01:04:56Highball glasses for gin, not Stanley.
01:04:57Sorry.
01:04:58Sorry.
01:04:59Do you know where Mrs. Hudson is?
01:05:00I don't know.
01:05:01It's all right.
01:05:02It's all right.
01:05:03That's all right.
01:05:04I've been waiting for you for a while.
01:05:05It's all right.
01:05:06That's all right.
01:05:07I've been waiting for you for a while.
01:05:08And it's all right.
01:05:09I'll have to take you for a while.
01:05:10I'm not waiting for you, Cordelia.
01:05:11If you think that I'm paying for you coming here,
01:05:12I wouldn't dream of it.
01:05:13I wanted a little break.
01:05:14Have you worked here long, my dear?
01:05:17Don't overdo it.
01:05:18Highball glasses for gin, not Stanley.
01:05:20Sorry.
01:05:26You know where Mrs. Winston is.
01:05:28Don't ask. It's counting blessings.
01:05:32It's much less stressful when it's just the one. Believe me.
01:05:49We are.
01:05:51We are.
01:05:52We are.
01:05:53We are.
01:05:54And they're very ready to do exactly that.
01:06:06Table six wants two cognacs and a straga.
01:06:09Right.
01:06:10If you have the time.
01:06:11Yes, of course I do.
01:06:19Who is it?
01:06:24Little nightcap?
01:06:26No.
01:06:27Did you find anything out?
01:06:28Oh, lots.
01:06:29He's a very interesting man.
01:06:31We talked about all sorts of things.
01:06:33The new golf course.
01:06:34What?
01:06:35He's building a golf course at the side of the hotel.
01:06:38Didn't you know?
01:06:39He's got lots of other plans as well.
01:06:42His wife wants him out of the hotel.
01:06:44I think she'll find that difficult because he obviously loves the place.
01:06:48She seems even going to get her share of the money back if he's playing funds into new developments.
01:06:52Well, it all sounded like sense to me.
01:06:54He seems to have a good business head on his shoulders.
01:06:57In fact, he seems a perfectly decent, pleasant man.
01:07:03How long did you talk to him for?
01:07:05Five minutes?
01:07:06Ah, well, I'd be the last to suggest that age guarantees wisdom.
01:07:11But I think it's your employer we have to worry about.
01:07:14First of all, she asks you to do a job that's extremely delicate.
01:07:19And then she disappears before you have a chance to see her.
01:07:22I think she's probably unstable and neurotic and I would tread very carefully in your dealings with her.
01:07:28If I ever have any dealings with her.
01:07:31I found out about Sandra, by the way.
01:07:34How did you manage that?
01:07:36Easy.
01:07:37I asked one of the waitresses.
01:07:39Apparently, Sandra White used to work here.
01:07:43And about three years ago, she left very suddenly.
01:07:46Thank you, Edith.
01:07:51Good night.
01:08:01So how was your first day?
01:08:03Not too traumatic, I hope?
01:08:05Oh, well, I'm sure I'll survive.
01:08:08I'm sure you will.
01:08:10So what are you doing here?
01:08:12I'm just going to the leisure centre.
01:08:15I got lost.
01:08:16Oh.
01:08:17I thought I'd try out your new sauna.
01:08:22Oh, yes.
01:08:23I normally do the rounds at night.
01:08:26The place is at its best then.
01:08:29So quiet and peaceful.
01:08:32Don't you think?
01:08:34Yes, I suppose it is.
01:08:36You know, sometimes we get so busy I forget how beautiful the place is.
01:08:40How much I love it.
01:08:43Have you noticed our paintings?
01:08:46Yes, I have.
01:08:50She's one of my favourites.
01:08:52The folds in the silk.
01:08:55The way it's slightly crumpled.
01:08:58Almost makes you want to straighten it out for her.
01:09:02God.
01:09:05Wouldn't you just love to be able to paint like that?
01:09:08Or perhaps you can.
01:09:09Oh, I wish I could.
01:09:15Is your wife any better?
01:09:16Oh, she'll be fine soon, I'm sure.
01:09:19Anyway, I mustn't keep you.
01:09:21I'm so sorry.
01:09:22How embarrassing.
01:09:23Look, um, why don't I come with you, show you the way?
01:09:28Breath of night air.
01:09:29Do me good.
01:09:33All right.
01:09:34All right.
01:09:35Good night.
01:10:04Good night.

01:11:49Good night.
01:11:50Good night.
01:11:51Good night.
01:11:52What the hell are you doing?
01:12:08Just keep your mouth shut, okay?
01:12:17I'm not sure I should be leaving after what you've just told me.
01:12:20I'll be fine.
01:12:23Philip will have a sore head today, and that is all.
01:12:26Yes, but if Julia Hampson has a boyfriend, she's hardly the wrong wife, is she?
01:12:33I don't suppose she's been sick at all. I dare say she's off somewhere with him.
01:12:36Well, her husband might have driven her to it.
01:12:40What are you planning to do?
01:12:46Find Sandra White, I suppose.
01:12:47I don't know.
01:12:48I don't know.
01:12:50I don't know.
01:12:50I don't know.
01:12:51Sorry.
01:12:54Never leave reception unattended, Cordelia.
01:12:59Sorry.
01:13:11Never leave reception unattended, Cordelia.
01:13:21How can I help you?
01:13:23Who are you?
01:13:24Cordelia Gray. I only started yesterday.
01:13:26Are you booking in?
01:13:27Certainly not.
01:13:28Are you sure I can't help you with anything?
01:13:31Excuse me. Excuse me.
01:13:32I hope you aren't bullying Cordelia because she is completely beautiful and completely harmless.
01:13:37Hello, darling.
01:13:40Cordelia, Cordelia, this is Hillary.
01:13:42This is my big sister.
01:13:43Well, sort of half-sister, but big half-sister.
01:13:46And Hillary, this is Cordelia.
01:13:47Yeah, I know her name. Thanks.
01:13:49Hillary has a very interesting problem.
01:13:51She doesn't actually like to have other attractive young women around the place
01:13:54because she thinks it will spoil her own chances.
01:13:57So you better watch out.
01:13:57Well, at least you found it in the end.
01:14:02Just about.
01:14:03Sorry.
01:14:04Could I have a word?
01:14:05Yes, of course.
01:14:06Sorry.
01:14:07Excuse me.
01:14:08Enjoy your sleep.
01:14:09Thank you very much.
01:14:10You said if I had any problems to come and see you.
01:14:12I know it's ridiculously soon, but...
01:14:16Well, try me.
01:14:19I've just had a call.
01:14:20A friend of mine's gone into hospital for an operation.
01:14:24It's really quite serious, and I'm desperate to see him before he has it.
01:14:27I wondered if I could have the afternoon off.
01:14:34I'll be back for seven, and I'll make it up during the week.
01:14:38And I won't make a habit of it, I promise.
01:14:42No problem.
01:14:43Oh.
01:14:46Well, go.
01:14:48Go on, go.
01:14:49I'm sure the hotel won't grind to a halt without you.
01:14:52No, thank you.

01:19:23you
01:19:24you
01:19:25you
01:19:26you
01:19:27it took you long enough to find me
01:19:29what sort of detective's that
01:19:31one who's wasting her time I'd say
01:19:34I talked to Erica Goodwin
01:19:36and got nowhere except that she put me on to Sandra White
01:19:39you do remember Sandra White don't you
01:19:43she admits to a brief affair with your husband
01:19:46there you are
01:19:47what did I tell you
01:19:48it was an entirely voluntary affair no question of sexual harassment I'm afraid
01:19:51and you believed the little whore did you
01:19:53of course you did
01:19:55you know better than employ a frigid little bitch I saw it in your eyes the other day
01:19:59the fear or disgust was it
01:20:01oh nice people don't do things like this
01:20:03what nasty messes people do make
01:20:05I take it you came here to meet Peter Forbes
01:20:07has he stood you up
01:20:10or did you have a row is that why you're in such a state
01:20:13why didn't you just tell me the truth why couldn't you just be honest
01:20:17it is my business he has nothing to do with this
01:20:20he has everything to do with this
01:20:22you didn't tell me about Sandra White you didn't tell me about him
01:20:25how am I supposed to know that everything you've told me isn't just more lies and half-truths
01:20:29I've decided not to go on with this investigation
01:20:31I don't wish to
01:20:33of course I shall make no charge for work already done
01:20:36I don't wish to employ you I wish I'd never met you
01:20:39but since I have I'll make the decisions thanks very much
01:20:42and I've just decided you're fired
01:20:44oh god
01:20:54oh god
01:20:58oh I'm so sorry
01:21:01oh I'm so sorry
01:21:03oh
01:21:04oh
01:21:05oh
01:21:06oh
01:21:07take me home please
01:21:09oh Jesus
01:21:10oh Jesus
01:21:21I need your help
01:21:22please
01:21:24he's so clever I can't do it on my own
01:21:28I apologize for losing control
01:21:32it's just I was disappointed by what you said
01:21:35really?
01:21:36were you just shocked that I'd managed to track down Sandra White?
01:21:40no
01:21:41I thought you'd realize how easily someone like Andrew can gain control over stupid little girls like Sandra
01:21:47you're seriously saying that he could persuade them to go through a sexual encounter that was forced on them and think that they'd encouraged it or even enjoyed it
01:21:58yes
01:21:59he buys them off too he gives them presents and money
01:22:02and you think that that's what he did with Erica Goodwin?
01:22:06probably
01:22:07yes I'm sure it is he's probably still doing it
01:22:10what did Erica say to you?
01:22:12she didn't say anything
01:22:13well there you are then why wouldn't she?
01:22:16I've no idea but
01:22:18there could be any number of reasons
01:22:22Mrs. Hampson
01:22:25I haven't got any evidence none at all
01:22:29well then I'll give you evidence
01:22:32come on
01:22:43there
01:22:46just ask her what he's capable of
01:22:51if you could talk to her you'd believe me
01:22:53what do you mean if I could?
01:22:55who is she?
01:22:56alright where does she live? how can I get in contact with him?
01:23:00you can't
01:23:01what do you mean I can't? why can't I?
01:23:03no one can
01:23:04you're saying that she's dead?
01:23:07you're saying that he killed her?
01:23:09I said before there are people who can give evidence if you can find them
01:23:13if he hasn't terrified them into silence
01:23:15who are these people and why haven't you contacted them earlier?
01:23:19because they hate me surely you've discovered that they all hate me
01:23:22Christ he's even turned my own children against me
01:23:24why haven't you noticed that either?
01:23:27I'm sorry Mrs. Hampson
01:23:30even if I believed you even if I did
01:23:33I haven't got anything to go on
01:23:35how can I can continue an investigation when it's reached a complete dead end?
01:23:39he likes you doesn't he?
01:23:41well that's the quickest way to find out what he's really like
01:23:44put yourself at his mercy
01:23:46then you'll find out whether I'm lying or not
01:23:48well isn't that very nice?
01:23:50makes you feel queasy does it?
01:23:52we mustn't have that must we?
