00:00:00I see danger.
00:00:05I see some very dangerous people.
00:00:09You must take great care.
00:00:12They're far away at the moment.
00:00:15Not in your life yet.
00:00:18But they are coming.
00:00:30I can't wait for that to go.
00:00:43Okay, let's do it.
00:01:00Come on.
00:01:06Move! Move!
00:01:07Do you get told me I'd use this?
00:01:10Put him in the bag.
00:01:11Put him in the bag!
00:01:28Come on, we might. Get a move on.
00:01:30Here's a minute, will you?
00:01:32Get a bird to take your stuff out of the window.
00:01:35Come on, move it.
00:01:38Open it!
00:01:43Darn it, come on!
00:01:50A police constable was fatally stabbed
00:01:52in a daring raid on a jewellers shop in London this morning.
00:01:56Police constable Vincent Fox, who was 21,
00:01:59confronted the raiders at a shop in Shepherd's Bush.
00:02:02The car used in the robbery, a stolen Ford Granada,
00:02:06was later found abandoned in Harrow.
00:02:08It's been estimated that the robbers got away
00:02:10with over £50,000 worth of jewellery.
00:02:13And now sport and...
00:02:14This would have scared them off.
00:02:17I don't play with toys.
00:02:20There was three of us. He had no chance.
00:02:22We carry radios, haven't you heard?
00:02:25Anyway, how was that you know he'd die?
00:02:28I saw you. You stuck it in him right up to the fist.
00:02:31I'm getting desperate.
00:02:33Aye, well, I'm no stopping the motorway.
00:02:34You want me to do it here?
00:02:35Why did I have to get involved with you lot?
00:02:38Do you want to pull out or what?
00:02:39Hey, Malky, why don't you hang the jewellery out the window
00:02:41and really draw attention to yourselves?
00:02:42Why don't we just hang you out the car?
00:02:44Yeah.
00:02:55Yeah, Twally.
00:02:57See, 가능 at that!
00:03:12Wait a minute.
00:03:14He's a liability.
00:03:18He is.
00:03:19Told you it was an accident.
00:03:21They'll never stop.
00:03:22It was an accident, right?
00:03:24They'll never stop.
00:03:24They never do when one of their own gets it.
00:03:44They never stop.
00:04:13Where is she, eh?
00:04:14Three guesses.
00:04:16Aye, wouldn't he?
00:04:18Not a time like this.
00:04:20What a tosser.
00:04:25You could always just drive away.
00:04:27Look less obvious.
00:04:29And leave him hitching on the motorway.
00:04:32Yes!
00:04:34No!
00:04:43You enjoying your holiday?
00:05:03Aye, oh my.
00:05:04Look, the longer we're here, the mere attention we get.
00:05:08They're going to be looking for us up here, aren't they?
00:05:09Aye, they have your accent, my accent, and Danny's.
00:05:13Aye, he's mad.
00:05:14They didn't have to use it, eh?
00:05:15I know, but we're stuck with him.
00:05:16Now, come on!
00:05:17We're stuck with him.
00:05:18Just let me finish it, will you?
00:05:19Well, come on!
00:05:20Look, just okay.
00:05:21Calm down.
00:05:23Have you ever been on a horse, Jim?
00:05:26Not since I fell off the Coleman's horse when I was ten and broke my arm.
00:05:29You don't get bored with all this.
00:05:33I'll tell you this.
00:05:35As soon as I watched them going round in circles,
00:05:37and so-called executives heading for a heart attack...
00:05:39What made you get out?
00:05:41Money.
00:05:42I lost a lot of it.
00:05:43Too many crooks in a timeshare business now.
00:05:46I thought, I don't need all this hassle anymore.
00:05:47I'm going to slow down and enjoy life.
00:05:50Hello, Hayne.
00:05:50Aye, darling.
00:05:52Daddy, can I go and help groom Smokey?
00:05:55Course you can.
00:05:55Come on.
00:05:56She must be in her element, eh?
00:05:58That's what I did it for, really.
00:06:00Come on.
00:06:00This way, darling.
00:06:01Royal Blind School, minibus at the section 5.
00:06:04Well, I didn't expect to see you here.
00:06:07I just wanted to make sure you could use that contraption in your new car.
00:06:11It was like having independence again.
00:06:13Just going over streams and up hills.
00:06:16Just walking.
00:06:18Well, don't get carried away.
00:06:20Every time I develop a new interest,
00:06:22you greet it with a singular lack of enthusiasm.
00:06:25Jean, it's my day off.
00:06:27If I wasn't enthusiastic, I wouldn't be here.
00:06:44That's Jimmy back.
00:06:45You know what he thinks of you sitting there all day looking at that TV?
00:06:48When I was a girl of children, I went for the families, enough of that.
00:06:50We like it.
00:06:51Grandpa, I'm going to have to move you.
00:06:55Grandpa, you're going to have to move.
00:06:57Grandpa.
00:06:57Come on.
00:06:58Mum wants you to move.
00:06:59Up, old fella.
00:07:01You all coming.
00:07:02We've got a job on.
00:07:04Move it, you two.
00:07:05Leave it to me.
00:07:31It's tricky getting helpers.
00:07:34Not to mention cash.
00:07:35I get a grant from the local council, but I need another 20 grand.
00:07:39That's a lot of money.
00:07:40Know any bank robbers can give me a few tips?
00:07:42Yes, I do.
00:07:43But they're all inside.
00:07:47Don't worry.
00:07:47She's fine.
00:07:48She's got away with them.
00:07:50He said I was worried.
00:07:52She's safer with horses than getting into a car these days.
00:07:54I'll stick with wheels.
00:08:24British Airways is spending four billion pounds.
00:08:39I fancy a big chicken curry and a pint of lagerie.
00:08:42Okay.
00:08:43What's the matter, Billy?
00:08:44You no hungry?
00:08:45I'm nearly home.
00:08:46This is Danny Bonner, Music 10, 400 miles from the scene of the crime.
00:08:56And now back to the lovely Lorraine Kelly in the studio.
00:09:12Willie!
00:09:16Come on.
00:09:37Come on.
00:09:40Come on.
00:09:40Come on.
00:09:40Come on.
00:09:44What the hell?
00:09:46Oh
00:10:17Hey, Dan
00:10:21What is that?
00:10:23Just some ointment
00:10:26What's in it?
00:10:28Just ointment
00:10:30I'll not go reporting this to the police now, eh?
00:10:42Hey, look here, go for it, right
00:10:44I said Mark!
00:10:46Karen!
00:10:48Mark!
00:10:49Oh, nothing's in enough
00:10:53I think your friends have got the car started
00:10:59It's still gonna cost a bit to repair that body damage
00:11:02More on the stabbing of a London policeman
00:11:04We've just heard that the Metropolitan Police believe the gang that raided a jewellers shop in London earlier today
00:11:09and murdered 21-year-old police constable Vincent Fox may have come from Scotland
00:11:14Police are linking the raid with other jewel robberies in the south-east
00:11:25Nobody?
00:11:26Jesus
00:11:29What's that?
00:11:30Oh, my God!
00:11:31Oh, my God!
00:11:32Oh, my God!
00:11:33Oh, my God!

00:13:31Is he all right?
00:13:47Aye.
00:13:49What are we going to do, Jimmy?
00:13:51I don't know.
00:13:53The old you know get the blame.
00:13:56We'll go to Glasgow.
00:13:58Somebody there will help us.
00:14:00Aye.
00:14:01Right.
00:14:04Perry, when you're ready.
00:14:05Aye, right. Get you in a minute, Chief.

00:14:09Told you a lot before.
00:14:11No tinkers.
00:14:13You bloody tinkers.
00:14:15Right, boys.
00:14:15What'll it be?
00:14:16You're out of order.
00:14:17There's a race relations act, you know.
00:14:19What's it got to do with race?
00:14:20I'm not having them coming in.
00:14:22Let one in and they're all in.
00:14:24I like to keep the place respectable
00:14:25so decent folks like yourself
00:14:27can discuss discreet police business
00:14:30up at the bar
00:14:30and a continual man.
00:14:32I gotta go somewhere.
00:14:34But I gotta go somewhere.
00:14:35You cannae come on here.
00:15:02We've got problems enough as it is.
00:15:04They'll move us on.
00:15:06Most did.
00:15:08Somebody killed her.
00:15:10See you in there?
00:15:11Aye.
00:15:34We were picking up some stuff.
00:15:44When we got back, everything had been taken.
00:15:46Money, jewellery, the lot.
00:15:48The Hornies will think Grandpa did it.
00:15:50You know what they're like.
00:15:51Aye, well, you're not bringing them here.
00:15:53We'll all get involved.
00:15:54Well, where then?
00:15:55Take them up to the site at Firhill.
00:15:58The Hornies will find you there faster than them.
00:16:00What about Grandpa?
00:16:01He was there when it happened.
00:16:02Well, you say he was with you.
00:16:03I'd be none the wiser.
00:16:07I'd be none the wiser.
00:16:09I know, but you're only stock to admire the view.
00:16:37Move.
00:16:38The lot of you.
00:16:39Now.
00:16:40No, the car is great, sir.
00:16:44It's just Jean.
00:16:45You know what she's like with anything mechanical.
00:16:51Sir, suspected mudder at Firhill.
00:16:53What's new?
00:16:54It's mudder every second Saturday at Firhill.
00:16:59It's mudder every second Saturday at Firhill.
00:17:06What's that mean?
00:17:07Womby.
00:17:23What's her name?
00:17:31Lambie.
00:17:33Effie.
00:17:34Euphemia.
00:17:35When did this happen?
00:17:37Last night.
00:17:39Last night?
00:17:40I came back and found her.
00:17:42All of us.
00:17:46Who laid her out?
00:17:49Well.
00:17:51We did.
00:17:53You mean this happened last night
00:17:58and you didn't report it until this morning?
00:18:01Sir!
00:18:04Get out of the lot.
00:18:08The cop was telling us that this lot only arrived here 20 minutes ago.
00:18:23We're in charge here.
00:18:31Huh?
00:18:32Who wants to know?
00:18:33Police.
00:18:34She was stabbed twice.
00:18:38Once in the chest and once lower down in the abdomen.
00:18:41Both wounds capable of being fatal.
00:18:44Rigors fully established.
00:18:46She died sometime yesterday, say between three in the afternoon and eleven in the evening.
00:18:51Yesterday?
00:18:52Well, she's been dead about 17 hours.
00:18:55And she's been moved.
00:18:57Well, no doubt.
00:18:58Well, Michael's checking that out.
00:19:01It harmed up the road at the gypsy site.
00:19:03Oh, nice.
00:19:04The right hand is interesting.
00:19:06Seems to have undergone what we call cadaveric spasm.
00:19:10A violent spasm of the muscles that make it go stiff at the moment of death.
00:19:14The fingers seem to have been holding something.
00:19:18But there's nothing in them.
00:19:20Oh, and the other hand has rings on too, but they've been pulled off.
00:19:23Roughly.
00:19:24Can you tell me anything about the knife that was used?
00:19:27Well, I can't tell you the depth of the wounds yet.
00:19:30But I'd say the knife had a single cutting edge.
00:19:33Would that have done it?
00:19:35That could.
00:19:51Is that your knife?
00:19:53Aye.
00:19:54It was found in the bus.
00:19:57It's got blood in the hilt.
00:19:58Can you explain that?
00:20:00They use it to skin rabbits.
00:20:02How'd you go on?
00:20:03They arrived there this morning.
00:20:07What do you mean, there?
00:20:08They brought the body there this morning.
00:20:10The guy didn't want us sniffing around, so he sent them along here.
00:20:15How many places has this body been to?
00:20:21Waiter.
00:20:22What's the matter, Danny?
00:20:26Thank you. Medium. Medium.
00:20:36What's the matter, Danny? There's still blood in there.
00:20:39It was wanted medium rare. These are rare on the customer's eye in a hurry.
00:20:43Hey, Ronnie. Yeah, that'll be it, eh?
00:20:56Come on.
00:21:12Capital Carpets, can I help you?
00:21:16Just a minute, I'll find them.
00:21:18What we face is a 15% reduction in sales,
00:21:21so we have to ensure that when customers do come into the store,
00:21:25they don't walk out without buying something.
00:21:27Are you listening, Mr Galloway?
00:21:29Yes, Mr Hamilton.
00:21:31That means a concerted effort. Trainees working as a team.
00:21:35A new strategy aimed at the point of sale.
00:21:37In other words, I'm talking about a sales drive
00:21:40that will leave our competitors standing still.
00:21:45Excuse me, Mr Galloway. Customer on the telephone.
00:21:51Have you seen Malky? No.
00:21:55Yes, hello, Mr Galloway speaking.
00:21:58Hi, it's Danny. Is everything okay?
00:22:00Yeah.
00:22:02How's the car?
00:22:03I had a slight accident in it.
00:22:05Had to put it into the garage.
00:22:07Should be fixed by tomorrow.
00:22:09Okay, all right.
00:22:11Oh, he's... fine.
00:22:14Look, I'll be in touch tonight. I'll give you a call when I can speak.
00:22:17Okay.
00:22:22What, you were getting your hair cut?
00:22:24Mr Hamilton's gonna have you.
00:22:26Oh, ho.
00:22:27So where have you been?
00:22:29Oh, don't tell me. I can guess.
00:22:31Just a nudge from the jackpot.
00:22:33George.
00:22:34How you doing?
00:22:35Oh, no.
00:22:36Oh, no.
00:22:37I'm not interested. Not any more.
00:22:38Do you know what, take a look?
00:22:39Look.
00:22:40Look.
00:22:41I don't want to know what.
00:22:42You've taken this stuff to every other truck.
00:22:43Not this one!
00:22:44Why not?
00:22:45Because there's a reward out for information about the murder of that policeman.
00:22:48You know what, take a look?
00:22:49Look.
00:22:50I don't want to know.
00:22:51You've taken this stuff to every other truck.
00:22:52Not this one!
00:22:53Why not?
00:22:54Because there's a reward out for information about the murder of that policeman.
00:22:58You breathe one more than that. I'll cut your throat so wide your head'll fall back.
00:23:22Why would I do that, Danny?
00:23:25we don't know who
00:23:40so you just waited around

00:25:16I take it it's not a domestic
00:25:28it's hard to see a motive sir

00:32:42just a few ingredients
00:32:43at my expense
00:32:46this is a chain
00:32:48we don't do individual recipes
00:32:50it relieves the monotony
00:32:52I'm all for that
00:33:02300
00:33:20what do you do
00:33:21drive it through a river
00:33:23upholstery was soaking wet
00:33:25there you go
00:33:27oh fire away
00:33:29one of the guys found this in the car
00:33:31yours
00:33:32I don't know how it got there
00:33:54looks expensive
00:33:56diamond earrings just drop out of the sky do they
00:34:01okay
00:34:03I'll tell you the truth
00:34:05they were a wee present
00:34:07and they're no real
00:34:09though you must be around here
00:34:11when it turns up you'll get it
00:34:13it's a nice place to keep a present
00:34:16on the floor of the car
00:34:17it must have happened in the accident
00:34:19when you hit the wall
00:34:21roi
00:34:22oh sorry
00:34:36sorry
00:34:37I don't know.
00:34:39We're over again.
00:34:41I don't want to be there for long, eh?
00:34:44Eh, fives, tens, fifties, hundreds, you know, whatever you like.
00:35:04Evening.
00:35:07Well, I think we can take it that our bunch pulled the London job as well as the Gypsy Muddon,
00:35:30and possibly the other London jewel robberies as well.
00:35:34I take a bit of organising.
00:35:37Curse of the motorways.
00:35:39They can go down south, come out of job and be back up in five hours.
00:35:43Where were you lost in an English motorway?
00:35:45Could the Tinkers be involved?
00:35:48I don't think so, sir.
00:35:51They'd have got rid of the stuff down there.
00:35:53They wouldn't bring it back up here.
00:35:56Who do we know up here with that MO?
00:35:58Nobody that isn't inside right now.
00:36:00We'll step up the search for the green car.
00:36:02It's the best clue we've got.
00:36:03Oh, I told the Met that.
00:36:05Oh, by the way, they're sending up a couple of their guys to liaise with you.
00:36:10The what?
00:36:11One of their policemen was killed.
00:36:14I think they're looking for a little co-operation.
00:36:17You see this?
00:36:18The noise I'm up to something right?
00:36:19Oh, Michael.
00:36:20I don't want the Met up here crawling over a patch.
00:36:37Their time will come when we make an arrest.
00:36:40Isn't that a rather insular view, sir?
00:36:42I mean, this idea that we're all separate forces.
00:36:45But we are separate forces.
00:36:47I know, sir.
00:36:48But we're not living in the Wild West.
00:36:51But what do you want next?
00:36:53The West Midlands Police up here as well, telling us how to do our job.
00:36:57They're just coming up to liaise, that's all.
00:37:03They're coming up here to take the credit after we've done the legwork.
00:37:07Hey, boys!
00:37:08Like my notice?
00:37:09No travellers.
00:37:10Anybody can accuse me of racial prejudice now?
00:37:13Aye, they can.
00:37:14Ah, since when was the travellers a race?
00:37:17You know fine well what you mean.
00:37:30Hi.
00:37:31Oh, hello.
00:37:32You been in any trouble?
00:37:33None whatsoever.
00:37:34They use the water here, but apart from that I hardly see them.
00:37:36They keep themselves very much to themselves.
00:37:37Is the boy in there?
00:37:38No, it's just her and her grandfather.
00:37:40Thanks.
00:37:44Daddy?
00:37:45Yes, Tanya?
00:37:46Are the gypsies like the ones we saw in Spain?
00:37:49No, these are a different kind.
00:37:50And I don't want you going and talking to them, all right?
00:37:53And Tanya, I thought we were never going to mention Spain.
00:37:57Okay?
00:37:58Hiya.
00:37:59You like it here?
00:38:00I suppose it must be hard wherever you are in the winter.
00:38:05What do you think of settling down?
00:38:06And giving up the travelling line?
00:38:07Or having a family?
00:38:08Look, you mustn't see us as your enemy all the time.
00:38:09I know it must be different.
00:38:10What are you?
00:38:11What are you?
00:38:12What are you?
00:38:13What are you?
00:38:14A polis or a brush salesman?
00:38:15We're the enemy, sir.
00:38:16That's why they didn't report the death straight away.
00:38:17They knew they'd be blamed.
00:38:18I suppose it must be hard wherever you are in the winter.
00:38:22What do you think of settling down?
00:38:24And giving up the travelling line?
00:38:26Or having a family?
00:38:28Look, you mustn't see us as your enemy all the time.
00:38:33I know it must be different.
00:38:35What are you?
00:38:38A polis or a brush salesman?
00:38:41We're the enemy, sir.
00:38:43That's why they didn't report the death straight away.
00:38:45They knew they'd be blamed.
00:38:47Wouldn't you want to know who killed your mother?
00:38:50I would, sir.
00:38:51But you know their attitude to the law.
00:38:53Aye.
00:38:54Very convenient.
00:38:56When do we get our share?
00:38:59When the heat's off.
00:39:08You trust anyway?
00:39:09What if we know always?
00:39:11Anyway, you'll only waste your share like you always do.
00:39:14What a day with my money is my business.
00:39:17Did you know these machines were made for mugs like you?
00:39:23There's a lorry load of vinyl stuck on the A74 which won't be here till about eight.
00:39:27I need someone to stay on.
00:39:29I was trying with John.
00:39:30I was shuggy.
00:39:31Mr. Lee has gone home sick.
00:39:33Mr. Davidson has a prior engagement.
00:39:35I said one of you two would volunteer.
00:39:39I've got a date tonight.
00:39:41Malcolm, you're the junior.
00:39:45Toss for it.
00:39:46Yeah, all right.
00:39:52See if you can get it out.
00:39:53We don't want it damaging the stock.
00:39:55Oh, buts aren't our department.
00:39:59Some heats.
00:40:23Oh, Jim.
00:40:24I'd like you to meet DCI McGarry and DS Tilling from the back.
00:40:26Hello.
00:40:27Sir.
00:40:28Hiya.
00:40:29We've finally got here, eh?
00:40:30Road works on the M1 and the M6.
00:40:31I will.
00:40:32We can't stop.
00:40:33We've got a lead in the green car.
00:40:34Belongs to a William Galloway.
00:40:35Carpet salesman.
00:40:36Going to pick him up.
00:40:37Do you know him?
00:40:38No, we've never heard him.
00:40:39We'd better come with you.
00:40:40No.
00:40:41You just stay here.
00:40:42For the long tiring journey, relax.
00:40:44Go upstairs, have a nice cup of tea.
00:40:46We'll bring him in for you.
00:40:49Sorry, our sweet person.
00:40:50I'm dearly dying.
00:40:51I'm dearly dying.
00:40:52I can't have a night.
00:40:53I can't see the snowwater.
00:40:54I can't see the snowwater.
00:40:55I'm sorry.
00:40:56I can't see him.
00:40:57I can't see him in for you.
00:40:58I can't see him in for you.
00:41:00He's sad.
00:41:01And I'm sorry.
00:41:02We've seen him in for you.
00:41:03No, we've never heard him.
00:41:04We'd better come with you.
00:41:06No, you just stay here.
00:41:07You've had a long tiring journey.
00:41:09Relax.
00:41:10Go upstairs, have a nice cup of tea.
00:41:12We'll bring him in for you.
00:41:15You came to me, said I'd love you.
00:41:45Billy!
00:41:50Billy!
00:41:53Billy!
00:42:15Billy!
00:42:25Billy!
00:42:30Billy!
00:42:35Billy!
00:42:45Billy, if you'd plain in your stupid...
00:42:56There's his car.
00:42:58He must be in.
00:43:00Go for some yard.
00:43:05Please, please, come quickly.
00:43:08They shouldn't be long.
00:43:13More tea.
00:43:14Do you have anything stronger?
00:43:16It's been a long journey.
00:43:20Do you have accommodation for tonight?
00:43:22Yeah, I've booked in at a B&B, but the governor is...
00:43:25I'll be staying with my father up at Torrance.
00:43:27Be a bit strange for him.
00:43:29I haven't been up here for about five years.
00:43:31I gather he was a D.I. on the south side.
00:43:34Can't say I knew him myself.
00:43:36Oh, he retired in 78.
00:43:39Keeps pigs now.
00:43:40Really?
00:43:43Of course, the city's changed a great deal.
00:43:45We're the European city of culture.
00:43:48So I heard.
00:43:49Soda and the brandy?
00:43:51No thanks.
00:43:52On its own.
00:43:57Yeah?
00:44:00I see.
00:44:03Oh, very well, we'll be there.
00:44:07I'm afraid there's a bit of a problem.
00:44:11How long's he been dead?
00:44:12Not long.
00:44:13An hour to an hour and a half.
00:44:16It's unusual wound.
00:44:17Yeah.
00:44:18Unusual knife.
00:44:20You're obviously not a D.I.Y. man.
00:44:22That's a linoleum knife.
00:44:24I take it he didn't do it himself.
00:44:27Suicides aren't usually that enthusiastic.
00:44:29No, I'm sorry, Sam.
00:44:30I think we can't allow you access to the store room at the moment.
00:44:37Look.
00:44:38Can you explain to this constable?
00:44:40I've got to take delivery.
00:44:41We have orders that must go out tomorrow.
00:44:44Look, Mr Hamilton.
00:44:45There's been a murder.
00:44:46We've just started the investigation, so nothing can be disturbed.
00:44:50Now, what was Galloway doing here?
00:44:51You were closed, weren't you?
00:44:52He was to supervise the delivery.
00:44:55When did you last see him this evening?
00:44:57About half past five.
00:44:59I also told him to get that bird out of here before it damaged the stock.
00:45:03I'm afraid it wasn't the bird that did the damage.
00:45:05We weren't serious or anything like that.
00:45:14It was just through working together.
00:45:18We had a date last night, that's all.
00:45:21Do you know who you piled about with?
00:45:24Not really.
00:45:26Erm, I didn't really know him outside this place.
00:45:30He's only been up here about nine months.
00:45:32He started with capital carpets down in London.
00:45:37But, erm, they move you about to get experience.
00:45:42I can't think why, cos every store looks the same.
00:45:47The mechanic said he found an earring in Galloway's car.
00:45:51Is it yours?
00:45:55He said it was one of a pair that he'd bought for me as a present.
00:46:02But I didn't believe him.
00:46:06I never believed him.
00:46:08You never can believe men, can you?
00:46:12I'll make you keep this.
00:46:15One evening's no good to me.
00:46:17Do you know where he was last Monday?
00:46:20His day off.
00:46:22Er, he said he had an accident in the car.
00:46:29Drove it into a wall.
00:46:32I didn't believe that either.
00:46:34On his day off, who was he with?
00:46:36Well, it certainly wasn't me.
00:46:38Things didn't go as we planned.
00:46:52So it seemed.
00:46:53Was he one of them?
00:46:54If this earring is part of the hall.
00:46:57Listen, you used to work in your patch.
00:47:00Came back up here as the training manager.
00:47:02Looks like we wasted our time.
00:47:06Any pattern to these robberies?
00:47:08Not really.
00:47:09Apart from the fact that they all happened on Mondays.
00:47:12Mondays?
00:47:14When did they start?
00:47:16About six months ago.
00:47:17Monday's his regular day off.
00:47:20He's been up here for nine months.
00:47:23More than likely his accomplices are up here.
00:47:26And you've never heard of him?
00:47:27Yeah.
00:47:29He's in your patch.
00:47:31He's got no previous.
00:47:33That means we start from scratch.
00:47:36The search starts here.
00:47:47Sorry to wake you up, Dad.
00:48:03Andy, what are you doing here?
00:48:05Come in, come in.
00:48:10Did you think I was the man come to collect your poll tax or what?
00:48:13I've been having a lot of trouble.
00:48:14Oh, I've...
00:48:15Some gibbos came and put broken glass in the pigs' troughs.
00:48:18I lost ten pints through it.
00:48:20Did you catch them?
00:48:21No.
00:48:22If they ever come back, they'll know all about it.
00:48:24Is it about that job where that copper get killed?
00:48:27Why?
00:48:28Well, we think the guys that did it came for up here.
00:48:32Do you now?
00:48:34Aye, and I'm up here to nail the bastards.
00:48:36Two of them anyway.
00:48:37Let them get done tonight.
00:48:40Care for a dram?
00:48:42Thanks.
00:48:44There are times I wish I was still in the force.
00:48:47Just to be able to do something.
00:48:49Like what?
00:48:50Just give me ten minutes in a room with these guys.
00:48:53It's all changed now.
00:48:55It's tape-recorded interviews these days.
00:48:57Unless you're Irish, of course.
00:48:59See this bloody pace?
00:49:00This Police and Criminal Evidence Act?
00:49:02It was the lefty start of that.
00:49:04To make our job more difficult.
00:49:06Dad, I think it was designed to increase public confidence, was it not?
00:49:10Aye, so they say.
00:49:11You don't have to bother with all that now, though.
00:49:14No, I still like to keep in touch.
00:49:15You know what's going on.
00:49:19Here.
00:49:21How's Cathy and Jason?
00:49:23Well, Cath's fine.
00:49:25And Jason is about to sit his GCSE.
00:49:30He wants to join the Met as well.
00:49:33Glad to hear it.
00:49:34Keep hitting the family, eh?
00:49:36The store won't be opening this morning.
00:49:41I've told the police all there is, but they want to talk to everyone individually.
00:49:45You get that haircut during your lunch break.
00:49:48I won't tell you again.
00:49:50We hope to open at midday.
00:49:56Thanks very much.
00:49:57You got to come in?
00:49:58All right.
00:50:00Sit down, Mr...
00:50:01Jury.
00:50:02Welcome, jury.
00:50:04How long have you worked here?
00:50:06Two years.
00:50:07Just two years.
00:50:09Were you a friend of Billy Galloway?
00:50:10No, I just...
00:50:11I just walked with him.
00:50:12So you've no idea who his friends were outside?
00:50:13No, I haven't got a clue.
00:50:15Last Monday, Billy had the day off.
00:50:16Do you know where he went?
00:50:18No, I don't.
00:50:22You don't know anything about him taking a trip to London in his car?
00:50:26No, no.
00:50:27When's your day off, Malcolm?
00:50:28Monday.
00:50:29Most days get Mondays on.
00:50:30What did you do with it?
00:50:32I was just up to town, you know, playing the fruit machines.
00:50:36A few places.
00:50:38I don't know anything.
00:50:39I don't know anything about him taking a trip to London in his car.
00:50:41No, no.
00:50:43When's your day off, Malcolm?
00:50:45Monday.
00:50:46Most days get Mondays on.
00:50:48What did you do with it?
00:50:50I was just up to town, you know, playing the fruit machines.
00:50:54A few places.
00:50:56How about last night after you left, Billy?
00:51:00Joe's archived.
00:51:03I was there for, er, half five to about the back of eight, you know.
00:51:08They know me there. I'm there all the time, you know.
00:51:10Were you on your own?
00:51:12I was playing the machine.
00:51:15For two and a half hours?
00:51:17Aye.
00:51:20Must be a good unit.
00:51:23No.
00:51:25No.
00:51:28Let's go.
00:51:58All right, Alison, could you get us some coffee, please?
00:52:11Now, about this job.
00:52:14I can't pay you, of course, but you can have as many free sessions as you want.
00:52:17Oh, I don't know, Colin.
00:52:18Look, I just desperately need someone to help me run this place.
00:52:20Colin, you need somebody able-bodied, not me.
00:52:23You can help me with the accounts, answering the telephone, taking bookings.
00:52:26There is another reason.
00:52:29I want to spend more time with Tanya.
00:52:31Don't you already?
00:52:33Not as much as I like. I still feel guilty.
00:52:36About the accident?
00:52:38I was too busy then. That's why it happened.
00:52:47I was dashing backwards and forwards to Spain on that timeshare operation.
00:52:51I took Tanya with me.
00:52:53God, I wish I hadn't.
00:52:56She could have lost her life, not just her sight.
00:53:02Who caused the accident?
00:53:05It's always the other driver, isn't it?
00:53:11Thanks, Alok.
00:53:15Three new managers.
00:53:18That lot couldn't organise an ease-up and a health club.
00:53:21I think in your day, sir, they were called shop assistants.
00:53:26Could be just a falling out amongst thieves.
00:53:29What, a line-on-night through the windpipe?
00:53:32Excuse me, can I open the store now?
00:53:34We thought it was open.
00:53:36I got the impression it had to be closed.
00:53:38Not only the stockroom, not the whole store.
00:53:40I'll get it in the neck of head offices about this.
00:53:45Unfortunate turn of phrase, eh?
00:53:47Sir, we found all this behind a loose wall panel in the loading area.
00:53:51Got prints of it.
00:53:52It's a replica gun.
00:53:54None of the jewellery in there?
00:53:56Afraid not, sir.
00:53:56Oh, well, eh...
00:54:01Keep searching.
00:54:03It's a big place.
00:54:08Why didn't you get the phone?
00:54:11Yes?
00:54:12Yes?
00:54:13Look, always you call.
00:54:15Lunchtime is busy.
00:54:17Hang on.
00:54:18Danny!
00:54:19Telephone.
00:54:20This potato's black in the middle.
00:54:22Get your money.
00:54:22He did the toys.
00:54:25Hello?
00:54:26Danny.
00:54:26It's me.
00:54:29Do you have it?
00:54:30Aye.
00:54:31I have it made it this morning.
00:54:32Look, I want my cut.
00:54:35We can't touch it yet.
00:54:36It's safe where it is.
00:54:37The police have interviewed me.
00:54:40It's only a matter of...
00:54:41Sorry, pal.
00:54:43It's only a matter of time.
00:54:44Look, I need the money.
00:54:46And I want you.
00:54:47Just take it easy, Malky, right?
00:54:49What about all the gypsies, you little?
00:54:51All that old stuff.
00:54:52Maybe they'll trace that.
00:54:54I'll take it.
00:54:55Hang on to the rest.
00:54:56Malky, for...
00:54:57Mrs. Andrews.
00:54:59I'll get back tonight.
00:55:13How would you like to earn some extra money?
00:55:15Doing what?
00:55:16I need a chef with a bit of imagination tonight at my place.
00:55:20Dinner for two.
00:55:22Can you handle it?
00:55:24Why me?
00:55:26You were the one who said you were bored.
00:55:30Okay.
00:55:30I'm staying at the White House.
00:55:33Do you know where that is?
00:55:34Yeah.
00:55:36I'll see you at three.
00:55:42We've interviewed all his friends and colleagues from work.
00:55:45What about the other carpet salesman who had the same day off, Malcolm Dury?
00:55:52Yeah, he's alibied for Billy Galloway's murder.
00:55:55He left the store at 5.30 and he was in the amusement arcade till after 8 o'clock playing the fruit machines.
00:56:02The change went in to the customer, so it seems like it's an addiction with him.
00:56:07The gun?
00:56:07It's a red production gun, sir.
00:56:10Hundreds of them about.
00:56:11The only lead we've got is Galloway's Prince.
00:56:14In other words, you've got nowhere.
00:56:16When we get somewhere, you'll know.
00:56:19Can I say something?
00:56:20You better keep any connection between this murder and the London job out of the news.
00:56:25It's done.
00:56:26Good.
00:56:27Because we don't want the other two legging it having already lost one.
00:56:31Okay.
00:56:32At least this way we get the satisfaction of dragging the other two back with us.
00:56:35Now listen.
00:56:36Let's get this straight.
00:56:37You're dragging nobody back until we sort them out up here.
00:56:42So, that's your priority, is it?
00:56:44Some old tinker's life's worth more than a young copper's.
00:56:48She had just as much right to live.
00:56:50But we understand your concern.
00:56:52Do you?
00:56:54I left this city when culture was a thing that grew on the walls.
00:56:59Maybe that's why all your villains travel south now to do the business.
00:57:03They don't want to tarnish its new image.
00:57:05Is that you get it filled up from your palm?
00:57:14Aye, you are more.
00:57:15Well, I thought it'd be good fun to have this license, but, you know, B-E-T, 5-2-1.
00:57:29Bet, oh.
00:57:30Bet, 5-2-1.
00:57:32Yeah.
00:57:32A bit of fun.
00:57:33Thank you, Dan.
00:57:34This looks good, eh?
00:57:35Because I'm realising his potential.
00:57:38So, what about my offer?
00:57:41I don't know, Jen.
00:57:42It's all a matter of style.
00:57:44That's the point.
00:57:45Get rid of the chandelier and that dreadful flock wallpaper.
00:57:48Give the punters a bit of fun, as well as some excitement.
00:57:51You provide the action, I provide the food.
00:57:55Glasgow's the perfect place for it.
00:57:57Certainly you know more about casinos than I do.
00:58:02Mmm.
00:58:02I hope you're paying that young man more than the pittance you pay your other employees.
00:58:07Pittance?
00:58:08Have you ever heard anyone complain?
00:58:10I thought they lost their jobs if they did that.
00:58:12I don't know.
00:58:15On you spot.
00:58:17You eat evil-smelling cacca's out here and out your bed.

00:58:27And that's cats and polis.
00:58:30Is that for our benefit?
00:58:31Yeah, he's got a sense of humour.
00:58:33What passes for a one.
00:58:35What's with the non-alkie?
00:58:36What I don't drink.

01:00:53Mr. Tuckett, a long time since I've seen you.
01:01:16Too long, Geordie.
01:01:18How's business?
01:01:20Me name's not Geordie.
01:01:21It's George.
01:01:23And since you asked, my business is doing very nicely.
01:01:26What, any jewellery lately?
01:01:27I don't buy jewellery anymore.
01:01:30Repair it, that's all.
01:01:32I'm Mickey Mouse.
01:01:33This is my partner, Donald Duck.
01:01:36Have you been offered any stuff lately?
01:01:38Stuff?
01:01:39I don't know what you're talking about.
01:01:41There's a £5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of three people
01:01:45in connection with stolen jewellery from London and up here.
01:01:49Here's a list.
01:01:52I told you.
01:01:59I've given up.
01:02:02Last time I was helpful, I got shut on from a great height, Mr. Tuckett, in spite of promises.
01:02:08That's the law of the jungle, Geordie.
01:02:20Hey, I can take to being a chauffeur.
01:02:22I had one that used to drive me down to the south of Spain quite regularly.
01:02:27Got himself banned.
01:02:29Spain, very nice.
01:02:31Do you still go down there?
01:02:32I have a villa down there.
01:02:34It belonged to my late husband.
01:02:35He started the trading post and I took over the business.
01:02:40After he fled the country?
01:02:42After he left the country, yes.
01:02:45You didn't go with him?
01:02:47I told you.
01:02:48I took over the business.
01:02:51We saw each other as often as we could in Marbella.
01:02:53Do you know many criminals down there?
01:02:57I have a lot of friends down there.
01:03:01If you were looking for somebody to drive you down, I'd be available.
01:03:05Of course you might be.
