New Year's Eve. Masters and Sim investigate an assault on a city lawyer, and suspect that he may have been involved with the racial bating of an Asian group trying to give out leaflets to students. Stamp manages to persuade a taxi driver who was witness to the attack to come forward, but then nearly ruins it by questioning his immigration status. As Masters and Sim investigate a former partner in the law firm, she is identified by the taxi driver as the person he saw attacking the victim. Meanwhile, Smith and Kapoor deal with a frustrated man who breaks into his former home, trying to deliver late Christmas presents to his children after his ex-wife refuses him access to see them.

00:50Possible racial attack for a white male.
00:52Serious head injury, the victim's name is Kevin Barnes.
00:56You can do it as well as you can, and keep any witnesses involved.
00:58Oh yeah, thanks a lot.
01:00Got it, huh?
01:02That's why!
01:04I don't know what you've got this wrong!
01:06I'm not licking these, I'm leaving them for the kids!
01:08Oh yeah?
01:10So where's your parts of Ryan being in?
01:12I'm their dad!
01:14That's Bethany, Michael, and that's little Lucy.
01:16Look, I swear to you, this used to be my house before their mum and me split up.
01:18So why did you have to smash the lock off the front door then, mister?
01:20Alderson!
01:21Brian Alderson!
01:22You just keep your hands where I can see them!
01:23It's just my wallet!
01:24I don't know what you've got this wrong!
01:25I'm not licking these, I'm leaving them for the kids!
01:27Oh yeah?
01:28So where's your parts of Ryan being in?
01:29I'm their dad!
01:30That's Bethany, Michael, and that's little Lucy.
01:31Look, I swear to you, this used to be my house before their mum and me split up.
01:32So why did you have to smash the lock off the front door then, mister?
01:33Alderson!
01:34I'm their dad!
01:36But that's Bethany, Michael, and that's little Lucy.
01:38Look, I swear to you, this used to be my house before their mum and me split up.
01:40So why did you have to smash the lock off the front door, then, mister, er…
01:44Alderson, Brian Alderson.
01:45You just keep your eyes where I can see them!
01:47It's just my wallet!
01:48Here, check my drivers licence.
01:50She changed the locks months ago. How else was I supposed to get in?
01:54So Oscar from 437-72, Oxgate Street.
01:57I believe this man, then you ever make me if I take this.
01:59Alderson.
02:00Can you ever make me, please?
02:01Can you have a maiden name for your kids?
02:02Alderton, right?
02:04So why is this male addressed to a Miss E, Alice?
02:06She's been using her maiden name since we split it.
02:09Look, I'm just a father that wants to keep in touch with his kids.
02:13Of course, as I have the right on my access days.
02:15All right, now you're looking at a burglary charge.
02:16Unless you're ex-convents for you.
02:18The whole point is she's not here.
02:20She's gone on holiday and taken the kids with her.
02:22All of a sudden, Sarge, it turns out our Santa Claus here does have four.
02:27Four assault.
02:27All right, you're all right, isn't it?
02:32For what I can make out, Barnes was speaking around the corner with some friends about 30 minutes ago.
02:36Then you'd have to get a cab home.
02:38You're making sense?
02:39Well, he says there was an incident earlier in Vulcan 3, maybe four Asian males in their mid-twenties.
02:45What kind of incident?
02:47The story is the Asian lad's wanted to pick a fight with Barnes and his friends in 1-0.
02:51And then he reckons the same lad's came back and did this.
02:55I don't expect to put a gun.
02:56Mr. Stanton, Mr. Stanton, please you don't matter.
03:04I just need to ask you a few questions.
03:06Can you understand what I'm saying, sir?
03:10Mr. Stanton?
03:12That's it.
03:13That's right, love.
03:14I'm serious, sir.
03:16I got nicked for handcuffing myself to railings outside the family court.
03:22It was a bit of a scuffle that I was just exercising my legal right to protest against the situation.
03:28My baby, you haven't got any legal right to switch there.
03:30Somebody else's got her, have you?
03:33Hang on.
03:34Hello?
03:34Um, would you be all right?
03:41What can you mean on your own?
03:42That's my business, is it so much?
03:44I don't know.
03:45That's what I'm saying.
03:54I don't know.
03:56No, no.
03:59I don't know.
03:59No, no, no.
04:05No, no.
04:06No.
04:08What do you expect to hear from you again?
04:18I just didn't want to end things the way we left them.
04:21Well, we're both still alive and I've got all my fingers.
04:23It's not a bad ending considering your husband's record.
04:27I know some of the things I did weren't very smart.
04:31They're not their only wife.
04:33They're signatures that they've never read.
04:36These weren't a couple of dodgy insurance claims.
04:38I know what the charges were.
04:44I just came to say goodbye.
04:47We said our goodbyes.
04:50You know, I've been trying to get used to not seeing you anymore
04:52and I've been trying to put myself back together again.
04:55And my life in there is, you know, that's what I'm good at.
04:59And I don't know what you want from me,
05:00but you being here is putting my job at risk.
05:06You all right?
05:08I shouldn't come here.
05:13Bye.
05:13Mr. Stanton reputedly grant the arresting officer with legal proceedings.
05:26You are going to regret this.
05:28Be nice to Mr. Stanton.
05:30He's terribly important.
05:31He's a solicitor.
05:32Edward Stanton alleges that you and three friends assaulting earlier this evening around 10 o'clock outside.
05:43And you believe him and not me?
05:45This drunk guy yelling abuse at the whole crowd.
05:48You believe him instead of a God-fearing Muslim in it?
05:51Do you see my sister's job to interview at 23-18?
05:55He's the one who was looking for trouble.
05:57Mr. Bashar, just tell us where you were between 10 and 10.45 this evening.
06:01Why do I need to tell you that?
06:05Because there's an allegation of assault against Edward Stanton.
06:08I told you already.
06:09He started it.
06:10We need to know what you were doing this evening to exclude you from a more serious allegation.
06:14Hey, if you don't want to cooperate, we'll just take you back to the cell and talk to you in the morning.
06:24I was with some of the Muslim brothers.
06:26They can't belong to my uncle.
06:27Right.
06:28With your two friends?
06:29No.
06:29They went home.
06:31Can you tell me the names of the people that you were with?
06:33I don't know the names.
06:35I never met them before.
06:38Ask my uncle, Ali Hussein.
06:40He'll tell you I was there.
06:41Yeah.
06:44Can you tell me if you were in this area between 10 and 10.45 tonight?
07:02Yes, but I didn't see him.
07:05You didn't see who, sir?
07:10I saw nothing or whatever was this thing.
07:12I'll see you at the driver's license, please.
07:15It's home.
07:17I'll be back in a minute, OK?
07:25It's the phone on the phone on the primary street.
07:28Attention to a great Toyota.
07:29Paying a stop for police.
07:31Over.
07:31I'm not being titty.
07:33I just want to get an investigation.
07:34Right now, all I'm saying is, don't let the long hours get to you.
07:38We're all doing extra shifts.
07:39That's just our guns at Christmas.
07:42Morning.
07:43Morning, sir.
07:44Right, what have we got?
07:46OK.
07:47Our victim is Kevin Barnes, one of four workmates from a legal firm in a city out for New Year's
07:53drink.
07:54Barnes, Edward Sandson, Alec Grace, Paul Shelton start with the office party at three o'clock.
08:01Now, four poppers in the cocktail bar later, they're heading to Calico Street, looking for
08:05a quarry.
08:06At nine o'clock, they arrive at the start of Madras restaurant.
08:09At ten o'clock, they leave and get into a fracker with three young British males on
08:13the middle lane.
08:14The route blows over and they move on to the Fusion Bar, 50 yards down the road.
08:19At ten-twenty, Kevin Barnes leaves the bar, heading towards Foundry Street, looking for
08:24a minicab home.
08:26Fifteen minutes later, he was found with serious head injuries by a passerby.
08:29A uniform arrives three minutes later, and at ten-fifty, Stanton arrives to see what
08:34the fuss is about, Susie's front cabin lying there.
08:38Ten-fifty-five, Aftar Bashar says he arrived at the crime scene.
08:42We're still trying to contact Alec Grace and Paul Shelton.
08:46Aftar Bashar and Ed Stanton are in custody after yet another altercation at the crime scene.
08:50That's eleven-thirty, Tony Stamps falls over a minicab.
08:53Now, the driver looks anxious and drives up before he can do a PNC check.
08:57Okay, well, let's push on to trace the minicab driver just in case there is a connection.
09:01Also, do you want to find out what you can about the kind of people that Barnes handles?
09:06You know, maybe there's an ex-climb that's got some kind of grievance against him?
09:09What's the company?
09:10Fraser Carmichael and Partners.
09:12Okay, Jay's the investigating officer on this one.
09:15But we need soft hands.
09:17I don't want racial tensions cranked up anymore.
09:21Understood?
09:22Judge.
09:22Right, Christmas is over.
09:27The sales are on.
09:28It means people are out looking for a bargain.
09:30It makes their wallets easy targets.
09:32Now, I need four officers on the lookout for two organised pickpockets.
09:43Both groups of young women in their early teens.
09:46Right, next up.
09:46This is a serious assault in Foundry Street last night, and I'll allocate Tim to continue
09:53the search for witnesses.
09:55And, uh, sorry about this, but, um, outstanding warrants.
09:58Oh, come on.
10:00Mr. Walter, you're being released after we've contacted your ex-wife.
10:04She's demanding that you pay for the damage to the front door, but she's got to confirm
10:07the version of your bank.
10:08It's my own home.
10:09No, we used to be your home, so it's still criminal damage.
10:12I'm telling you, the lengths a man's got to go to just to get fair access to his kids
10:16these days.
10:17Now, that is criminal.
10:18But all these protests are making a difference, aren't they?
10:21And things are changing.
10:23Yeah.
10:24Meanwhile, your kids are growing up.
10:27I don't know.
10:28I'm thinking old woman.
10:29I'm on your side to what I'm talking about.
10:32Yesterday was one of your exes, ladies.
10:34Your ex-wife has broken the court ruling, so the law is on your side.
10:38Speak to your sister, and get to know your complaint for the end.
10:42If you need me to back you up, tell you to get in touch, all right?
10:46You're the sound of a man, Sergeant Balesmith.
10:49I tell you, Pat, show him the way out before I lock him up for crawling.
10:53Send you up.
10:55Okay, talk us through what happens here.
10:58This guy and his mates come up.
11:00He's up his head and giving a panty of that.
11:03He's going, who do you think you are?
11:04Are boys in the right defending your democratic, this, that, and the other, you know?
11:08Okay, then what happened?
11:09His mate, the mouthy one, the guy who got cracked.
11:12He grabbed the leaflets off me and started tearing them up.
11:15There, see, see that?
11:18We're giving out leaflets to the grass roots.
11:20We're trying to connect young British Muslims, yeah?
11:23It's not new to get them, miss.
11:25We don't want to be martyrs or send out fat warts.
11:28Turn our backs of society.
11:30Turn our neighbours in to get those, yeah?
11:31Can we stick with last night?
11:33Kevin Barnes tore the leaflets up and threw them in your face.
11:36That must have made you really angry.
11:39Nah, I'm giving a sigh about the cool, you know?
11:42Peace be upon you.
11:45You don't care, hon.
11:47That's not going to be cheap.
11:48Don't worry about it.
11:50I'm going to promise that I can find him somewhere decent.
11:54Never mind.
11:56At the expense of sounding like your head wishes, you were late.
12:01Again.
12:02I have a problem with starting the car, Mum.
12:04Well, it's not just the car that needs a kickstart, is it?
12:07No, Mum.
12:08I think it's going to change now.
12:10Well, you're a day or two away from a New Year's resolution.
12:13Let's hope you mean it.
12:15Yes, Mum.
12:16Well, your partner's waiting with a list of warrants to chase up.
12:20Come on, get out there.
12:24What'd she want, blood?
12:25So, you say Kevin Barnes left the fusion bar at around 10.20 and went looking for a minicab?
12:34I should be at Kevin's hospital bed instead of here answering these questions.
12:38The driver of a minicab may have been involved in the assault on your friend.
12:42The man you had in custody is clearly responsible.
12:46Well, have all those community leaders already got him released?
12:49Aftar Bashar's version of what happened last night outside the staff of Madrasa Strat is very different from yours.
12:56Tell us about the influence, Mr. Stanton.
13:01I didn't read them.
13:03But it's always the same.
13:05Everywhere you go these days, you find some apologists for terrorism yelling in your face.
13:09The government's to blame, the troops in Iraq are to blame, the people of London brought this on themselves.
13:14Is that what this man was saying?
13:15We've been too soft.
13:17Made too many concessions.
13:24Sir, PC Stamp.
13:27Are you with this people?
13:28No, I don't know about any of this.
13:30I am a subrahini.
13:31You talked to me last night and I drove away.
13:33For this I'm sorry.
13:35I think I have information which can be some help.
13:37Mr. Braheini, you drove away from PC Stamp because you weren't registered to drive the minicab.
13:47The documentation on your vehicle is out of date.
13:49You need to amend it.
13:50Mr. Braheini, you came here to give us information, is that right?
13:53My wife says if somebody was badly hurt last night, I must come to say what I saw.
13:57And what did you say?
13:57I stopped in traffic halfway down Foundry Street and I saw a man on the floor.
14:02I couldn't see him very clearly because of the woman.
14:05There was a woman?
14:06She was standing over him.
14:07Young woman, maybe 25.
14:10A white woman.
14:11Was she talking to him?
14:13Just looking at this man on the floor.
14:16Then the traffic moved on and I drive away.
14:18Mr. Braheini, you need to tell us everything you can about this woman.
14:21Your car will also be considered as part of the crime scene and our forensic team will need to examine it.
14:26My car?
14:26What will happen now, sir, is that you'll have to remain in custody while we do that.
14:33I've just let the family come to apply an order to solicit, sir.
14:36Ask him to confirm that his client was denied by an ejector state.
14:39You're not in the South, I could never be wise, sir.
14:42Have a wet touch.
14:43Yes, sir.
14:44Where's your look?
14:50What's the problem?
14:51I've always asked, sir.
14:52She's agreed against the witness protection program.
14:54She can testify against her husband.
14:56So is it?
14:56Dave Sikson just told me.
15:00I thought you'd want to hear that.
15:02This means that Pete Larson goes down and the witness gets protection.
15:06Oh, they've been so stupid.
15:08What are you talking about?
15:09She comes to sleep, boy.
15:10She knows that when she goes into the witness protection, we're never going to see each other again.
15:22Oh, great.
15:23Oh, great.
15:28You're going to pop the gun out.
15:30It shows about the South.
15:33Now, I could have a bit of a heat.
15:34The woman who saw her standing over Kieran Barnes was wearing a very distinctive jacket with a floral pattern on shoes.
15:40This is about 15 minutes before the assault, 500 metres from the scene.
15:44She's carrying groceries.
15:46She's carrying groceries.
15:47She might be local.
15:49Can we have an address to that shop?
15:51Thank you very much.
15:56She said Colleen's not being back for another round.
15:59She's got to pick up her benefit.
16:01Colleen Crowe.
16:03Two months old court, we're up for Kieran to appear.
16:06Great.
16:06Never know himself.
16:08How does a specter girl going to know I'm doing the job if you've got nothing to show for it?
16:11Don't worry.
16:12We'll come back here now.
16:13We'll pick her up then.
16:13Well, what about refs?
16:15By the time we get her back to the station and do the paperwork, I'm going to be scarring.
16:19I don't believe you.
16:21Yes, ma'am.
16:21You can depend on me, ma'am.
16:23Do you remember that?
16:24Well, now we'll do.
16:25What's the difference?
16:26Here's what we'll do.
16:27We'll go on refs for an hour.
16:28We'll come back.
16:29We'll pick her up then.
16:31Well, about an hour and a half.
16:33An hour?
16:34Look, refs is a break from the job.
16:36We don't try and fit the job round it.
16:37Joe, what else did you say he was off the record track with Miss Superheel?
16:47I, um, I told him you wouldn't ask him any awkward questions about his status in this country.
16:51You mean he's got no right to remain?
16:53Why else did he think he's so reluctant to come forward?
16:56Well, we can't afford to involve immigration in this.
16:58We need him as a witness.
16:59Why didn't you say so before?
17:00Oh, to be honest, the way you've been behaving and everything by the book,
17:04I thought it would serve you some soul-searching.
17:07You didn't know about it.
17:08Yes.
17:09Lisa Keller, DC Masters, Sam, can we have a good word?
17:16Not certainly me.
17:18So what's this all about?
17:19You've got your address from the newsagent to deliver your papers.
17:22Can you tell me, were you in Foundry Street last night at around 10.30?
17:26Hold on.
17:27Look, no disrespect, but you're in my home.
17:31I mean, we could say you've infringed my civil liberties already.
17:34Don't you think it would be good manners to tell me what this is about?
17:38Apologies, Ms. Keller, but we're looking for witnesses to a serious assault that happened last night.
17:43So, if I can repeat the question, were you in Foundry Street last night at around 10.30?
17:49No.
17:50My route home doesn't take me that way.
17:52I take the bus to the corner and then walk.
17:54You walk locally?
17:56Yeah, I do volunteer work at the community centre in Parsons Field.
17:59Did you take the bus home last night?
18:01Yeah, yeah.
18:02And number 15, just after 10, had a couple of drinks with two colleagues.
18:07See, we have a witness who says I saw a woman fitting your description at the scene of the assault.
18:13Well, it's obviously been a mistake.
18:16Does the name Kevin Barnes mean anything to you?
18:19No, I'm afraid not.
18:20I'm sorry, but I've really got to get back to work.
18:29Not so nervous, little girl.
18:33I've really got to get on.
18:34Hi, it's Louise.
18:41I can't take a call.
18:41I don't know.
18:42Please give me a message.
18:44Louise.
18:45It's me.
18:46You know, um...
18:48I just, uh...
18:51About last night, I'm sorry.
18:53I just...
18:54I didn't know why you wanted to see me.
18:57What if you got this message, didn't you?
19:02I don't want to give me a call here.
19:04Please, just...
19:05What?
19:06You've got a domestic search for yourself, and Ryan Alderton and his ex.
19:09Oh, you're saying you're doing a little stupid.
19:15What's that?
19:17Stanton?
19:18You do?
19:19As a solicitor.
19:20You've got a stamp of the need for evidence before making an arrest.
19:23Um, Joe, I've got more on Aftab's alibi.
19:26I've just been down to the local mosque, looking for the uncle.
19:29Now, he wasn't there.
19:30But I was told by two separate witnesses.
19:33Aftab was at the mosque, a religious meeting at 10 o'clock last night.
19:37Well, if that's true, it clears him.
19:38So why didn't he tell us that?
19:39The religious meeting was given by a Muslim cleric called Abu El Hasnawi.
19:44El Hasnawi's North African-born and very militant.
19:48He's also possibly connected to Al-Muhajaroun.
19:50Al-Muhajaroun was deported by the French jihad one months ago for inciting the Muslim youth of Paris to join the jihad.
19:58Looks like Aftab Bashar has friends who doesn't want us to know about.
20:04No, no, not that one, no.
20:06No, no.
20:07No, no, no, no!
20:09What's that cost?
20:10Didn't I tell you that they're doing a bit stupid?
20:12I was trying to give her the toys for the kids.
20:14She starts having a go at me, and before you know what's happening, it's like that we were still married.
20:18Only then it was pan she threw.
20:19Not these very expensive toys!
20:22Alright, now that is the last time I want to hear you raise your voice, do you understand me?
20:26Now you've got the course on your side, but if you want me to help you, then you need to work with me, alright?
20:36Sergeant Smith from Sunhill Police.
20:40Can you open the door for me, please?
20:42I need to come and respect to you, Ms. Ellis.
20:46I need to come and respect to you, Ms. Ellis.
20:51Just forgive me.
20:51Why didn't you tell us the truth about where you were last night?
20:57Listen, I've seen what the press said about El Hasnaumi.
21:00I wanted to hear them for myself.
21:02That's democracy.
21:03No, you listen.
21:04You're facing a serious assault allegation here, and you expect us to believe you were more worried about politics?
21:10Maybe you don't know what's going on out there.
21:11Everybody's going on about freedom of speech, but as soon as you try and get something, they've got you on a suspect list.
21:18You were wasting police time and taking on unnecessary risks.
21:21I was protecting my family.
21:23You think I want your people raiding my home and treating my family like terrorists?
21:27But if you told us the truth, you would have been released long ago, Mr. Bashar.
21:31I'm a police officer.
21:33I investigate crimes.
21:34Now, how long did you stay at that meeting?
21:39Long enough to hear some of his poison ideas.
21:43All these moderate Muslims saying there's nothing but peace and love in the Koran.
21:48Believers, make war on the infidels who dwell around you.
21:53Deal firmly with them.
21:54How long were you at that meeting?
21:56Come in.
21:58It's there on the page, man.
22:00Just like the Bible is full of blood and murder and death.
22:05They've got to stop saying it isn't in there or the people are not going to listen.
22:09Well, the breakfast of the tape, decent ideas, just entered the room.
22:12Can I have a word with you?
22:13Yeah.
22:14Interview suspended, 1337.
22:18Hi.
22:20Thank you, Jesus.
22:23Forensic's results on the iron bath.
22:25I've also published a print, but it's not Hattab Bashar's, and it's not Mr. Bahini's.
22:30The blood's definitely kept in balance.
22:32It's just in case there's any doubt, so I try to get hold of some CC.
22:34There's a TV footage from a bus that Lisa Keller says that she took home last night.
22:38The bus that we said there was a problem in the number 15 service.
22:41There was a gap in the service for around an hour.
22:44What time was that?
22:45About 9.45 minutes.
22:46Which throws Lisa Keller's story at me.
22:49Yeah.
22:49You don't know him, Sergeant Smith.
22:53Most of the time the kids were growing up, he was in the park with his mates.
22:56From what he tells me, it sounds like he's got his priorities right now.
23:03Penel?
23:04Yeah.
23:06Try and see it from his point of view.
23:08He wants to make up for all of that, make a clean start.
23:11And I am trying to make a clean start too, for me and the kids.
23:15Nobody's asking you two to get back together.
23:18But the family court does say he has a right of access.
23:20Maybe.
23:21But it doesn't mean I have to like it.
23:23As soon as you deny him access, then someone like me gets involved.
23:27I don't want to be, but I am now.
23:29What are you saying?
23:30If necessary, I'll have to go to court and testify that you've broken a room.
23:33The net result of that is more access from Mr. Orton and the possibility of a change of custody.
23:42Now, do you want that to happen?
23:43No.
23:44On the other hand, if you can demonstrate to me starting now that you can behave sensibly and follow the court's ruling,
23:51I don't need to get any more involved.
23:53It's your choice.
23:56Lisa's not actually here at the moment.
23:57Maybe I can help.
23:58What case is it?
23:59No, it's not about the legal aid work you do here.
24:01I think she can help with a serious assault investigation.
24:04Do you know where she might be?
24:06No.
24:07Yeah.
24:08We're a bit disorganised at the moment.
24:10We rely on volunteers to help people die yet today.
24:13Is Lisa Carr a volunteer?
24:15Lisa?
24:15No.
24:16She's the best legal aid solicitor we've got.
24:20She's a solicitor.
24:21As far as I can tell, she's in court today.
24:24Do you know which court?
24:25That I can't say.
24:27We do a lot of immigration appeals.
24:28They tend to get shuffled around without much notice.
24:30So before she came to work for you, do you know who her previous employer was?
24:34Yeah, we were talking the other day.
24:36She said until about eight or nine months ago she was working in the city.
24:40Fraser, Carmichael and partners.
24:42Maybe.
24:43Okay.
24:44Thanks for your help.
24:49I'll start checking the court.
24:50See if I can track her down.
24:51No, I'll get his aim on the back.
24:52We need to go and see the suit breaking you.
24:54But don't phone me and go ahead of me, yeah?
24:55Yeah, his evidence has just got a whole lot more significant, and I need to make sure he's going to cooperate with us.
25:05How much around this, Brahimis?
25:0945, a year or two, either way.
25:12And a report on the name of Superhimi.
25:14Says he's 45.
25:14Do you want to sign in here, please, sir?
25:20And we just need to confirm a few details within this, Brahimis?
25:23That's your age, Bruce.
25:2635 years of age.
25:27And your price is burnt.
25:29If you wait, your passport confirmates.
25:32Why are you asking me this?
25:34Is this the thanks I get?
25:36You want me to not help you?
25:38I should have said nothing.
25:39No, you did the wrong thing, Mr Brahimis.
25:41I work hard.
25:47I don't look for trouble.
25:49I have a right to be here.
25:55I get this feeling that Mr Brahimis isn't actually Mr Brahimis.
26:03Do you have anything?
26:05Watch out, Robin.
26:06You've always got to be back out ages ago.
26:08When I told you my radio was at the scene, let's get another one.
26:11I think she's done your war at this, isn't she?
26:13Colleen Crowe?
26:14Yeah, we've just got our way back out for her, finally.
26:17Oh, she's in custody now, so that's the difference.
26:19I just nicked her.
26:20She pulled a knife on another girl in Canley Shopping Centre.
26:24Oh, the result's the same, isn't it?
26:25Whether they got her or we did.
26:27Yeah, try to turn that to a girl that knew she had a six-inch blade in her guts.
26:30Hey!
26:30Hey!
26:39Hey, look at you!
26:44He's going to take them out for a festive burger, on the understanding that if he's a minute late bringing them back, he's going to have his ex and make some answer to them.
26:51Come on, let's get going, shall we?
26:55I'm going to do a little more than a day's work for Bobby and me.
27:02Royce?
27:03Um, no, no, no, it's, uh, not a bad time.
27:06Um, look, um, forgive me, you know, just to, uh, I'm just to talk about things, but, um, I don't know if you want to.
27:20This is Mr. Stanton.
27:22Sir, now you do have time to talk to me.
27:25Does this mean you've finally charged the Bangladeshi?
27:27No, Mr. Michelle has been cleared and released.
27:30Great.
27:31An order sent down from above, you mean?
27:33I know how it works.
27:34I'm not here to argue with you, Mr. Stanton.
27:36I need to know about a former employee.
27:39The name of Lisa Keller?
27:41Lisa Keller?
27:42Is this relevant to me?
27:43That's what I'm here to find out.
27:45This is the level of your inquiries.
27:47It doesn't bode well for the investigation.
27:48Please, Mr. Stanton.
27:52We had to let her go.
27:54She appealed against that.
27:56Resettled.
27:56End of story.
27:57Would she have reason to feel unfairly treated?
28:01We've had a business.
28:03And our clients have to come first.
28:05Right.
28:06Some of them are facing long prison sentences.
28:09If I were them, I wouldn't want to put my life in the hands of someone whose mind was on the one-cloat FIFA baby.
28:14Would you?
28:15She was pregnant.
28:18The tribunal was about maternity arrangements.
28:22Now, if you'll excuse me.
28:23Susie, I'm nervous that we're in here.
28:33We've got a problem with our star witness, Joe.
28:35Masu's wife says he won't go to court.
28:38What?
28:39They had a visit from Uniform, didn't they?
28:42Masu's afraid he'll run into immigration problems.
28:45What Uniform offices?
28:46Who ever returned his car from forensics, I guess, but...
28:50Listen, we can't afford not to be working this time of year, so I'll put a call out to Uniform, and somebody must have got a beetle.
28:56Yeah.
28:56It's not fine, anything that worries me.
28:58It's getting him back on side.
29:03Oi!
29:05Ew.
29:05Close the door.
29:14Right.
29:16Who's going to tell me about the pantomime with Colleen Crowe today?
29:20She was on your warrant this, but ends up getting arrested by P.C. Harmon for an offensive weapon.
29:25We must have missed her by just a few minutes, Mum.
29:27Sorry, Mum, that's the experienced officer. I know we should have returned in time to arrest her.
29:32But, but...
29:35You're telling me you were slowed down by your probationer?
29:41Do you care to leave us, P.C. Hemingway?
29:47Mum, how come Hemingway gets a flight and you now get the rap on the knuckles?
29:50Because I do not need officers on my team who will not take responsibility or own up to their mistakes.
29:55But it was one outstanding warrant. It's not fair, but...
29:57No.
29:59Your attitude and your overall performance are still well below par.
30:03You are, you are not, my idea, you handsome, of a good officer.
30:09You're not going to throw me up, are you?
30:11I need this job.
30:13Oh, is that what it is to you?
30:15A job?
30:15Because if it is, there are other jobs less dangerous, less frustrating,
30:18and some of them with more money.
30:20Maybe you should go for one of those.
30:22You can't push me out of here.
30:23What the hell did you think you were doing, scaring off my witness?
30:41You're what?
30:42Who are we talking about?
30:43We're sued Raheem, and you just waded in there without a second thought.
30:46I was answering questions.
30:48I was being a police officer.
30:49There's something strange about the guy.
30:50There's enough pressure on this investigation without getting immigration involved.
30:54Well, hang on.
30:55Are you saying that you knew his status was questionable?
30:57What I'm saying is, if I lose Raheem, the CPS won't charge my suspect.
31:01So now I've got to spend the afternoon trying to change his mind.
31:04Well, I should be concentrating on the investigation.
31:05The cat company gave us his location here.
31:27He wasn't very happy when we pulled him over.
31:30How's he now?
31:31Well, I don't know what he thinks is going on, but he's pretty scared.
31:35Why do you need to send officers like this looking for me?
31:40I'm sorry, Mr. Brahini.
31:42I'm sure PC Valentine's exclaimed.
31:44You're not under arrest.
31:45I just need your help.
31:49I think it's in the air, would you?
31:50Yeah, sure.
31:53Police officers came to my house, asking questions about my passport.
31:56I know.
31:57Please don't let anything those officers said make me forget why you came to us with information.
32:02I can't help you anymore.
32:03I came forward and I told you what I saw.
32:06Because you knew it was the right thing to do, and I know how hard that was for you.
32:11Yes.
32:12I fear for my children.
32:14Sir, without your help, I believe someone who brutally assaulted Kevin Barnes may escape justice and go free.
32:21I need you to identify that woman for me.
32:29I wish for my family to stay here, not to go back.
32:32I'll do everything I can to help you stay, but you have to help me once more, Mr. Brahini.
32:44Is this both okay?
32:46Yeah, it's a friend.
32:47She's away.
32:49She doesn't know anything about this.
32:50You know what's happening, don't you?
32:55I know that you've agreed to go into witness protection, yeah.
33:01I don't understand, Louise.
33:02If the CPS had dropped with their charges against you, why would you put yourself back in danger and testify against your husband?
33:10I mean, why not just walk away from all of this?
33:12Because I'm already in danger.
33:13If Pete gets off, he'll come looking for me over what happened between us.
33:19And if you testify against him when he gets 20 years?
33:22Then he'll send someone else after me.
33:26Pete's going to get revenge any way he can.
33:31Testifying against him and going into witness protection is the only way.
33:35And the worst part of it is the things I have to leave behind.
33:48I don't see how you can promise Masoud Brahini that immigration aren't going to take action on him and his family.
33:54I only told him I'd do what I could.
33:57He knows I can't just make one call and sort the whole thing out.
34:02What time did Lisa Keller say she'd be back?
34:05She left the court about 40 minutes ago. She'll be here any minute.
34:09Okay.
34:11I still think we should tell DS Nixon about Mr. Brahini's status.
34:14That way we've got it all on record.
34:16What is your problem?
34:17I've been banging on all day about going by the book and following procedure.
34:21You're getting on me nerves.
34:26I'm sorry, okay?
34:28I'm taking my sergeant's exams.
34:32Are you right?
34:33Oh, well, now it all makes sense.
34:37You've been practicing what policy and procedure tells you to preach.
34:43Well, they're still sexy about getting a result.
34:45Whether you're a DC or a DS.
34:47Jo, when we're both DS, we can argue about it until the cows come out, okay?
34:51Well, who says I won't be a DS?
34:52Yes.
34:53Silly Jones, if it's anything to stick a light, you who?
34:57Here she comes.
35:04If you have any more questions, perhaps we can make time tomorrow.
35:10I'm really very busy.
35:11You can find your legal aid work more rewarding than the old job at Fraser, Carmichael and Bartlett's.
35:16Why did you tell us you didn't know Kevin Barnes?
35:19A man you share the same office with.
35:20Because I knew you'd want to ask me a few hours' worth of questions before realising that it was just a coincidence that he was assaulted a few streets away from my flat.
35:31I have people whose lives in this country depend upon me giving them my time.
35:35And I need that time to answer some of my questions.
35:38Lisa Keller, I'm arresting you for grievous bodily harm.
35:41You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your offence.
35:44If you do not mention one question, something you do later rely on in court.
35:47Do you ever think about how things could have been for us?
35:54If circumstances were different?
36:00I wonder whether there were decisions that we could have made differently.
36:05Things that we did, things that we didn't do.
36:09Sometimes they told me that when an officer's been involved in an investigation,
36:17really involved, the way that you were.
36:21They said that sometimes that officer can go into protection too.
36:29We could start again.
36:32Just somewhere nobody knows what's...
36:34I wonder if it's what you want.
36:44Only if you could leave everything else behind.
36:46Mr. Stanton?
37:01I'm very sorry.
37:03I know this isn't a good time, but I need to ask you a few more questions.
37:06Can you tell me the circumstances that led to you leaving Fraser Carmichael and partners early this year?
37:25I've been at Carmichael's for three years.
37:32Everyone said that I was set to become the youngest partner that the firm had ever had.
37:38My manager was Ed Stanton.
37:41And when did you find out you were pregnant?
37:43She applied for a maternity leave with lots of conditions on her return.
37:50We tried to accommodate her, but she was pretty inflexible.
37:54So she felt she could have it all.
37:56Family and a high-flying career.
37:58What happened then?
38:00Things started to get more heated.
38:03We didn't see how we could back down a bit of a minute.
38:06Then a position at the head of department came up.
38:10Lisa didn't get it.
38:11She thought we promoted someone over her head because of the maternity dispute.
38:16Promoted who?
38:23Had all the resources of the company stepped against me.
38:27The pressure that they put me under.
38:30In any way they could.
38:33It was extreme.
38:38David.
38:39That was my partner.
38:40And David said that I should give up.
38:44Said that I couldn't win.
38:49Ed seemed to take the whole thing personally.
38:53He was obviously out to prove something about the weaker sex.
38:57It was a tough battle.
38:59There were precedents you would have set.
39:01We fought hard for the good of the company.
39:02Do you know what happened to Lisa after she left the company?
39:08We never spoke after she lost the appeal.
39:10As far as I know, she's found herself some soft-touch employer who allows her to press feed in the boredom, I don't know.
39:16So you mean you don't know shit?
39:20Hey, Kate, it's necessary on the monitor.
39:22Chris, can you take the airway?
39:24So if you can start shooting out for me?
39:25Two months after I lost the appeal, I lost the baby.
39:30My relationship with David was already strained.
39:35The baby was what was keeping us together.
39:37I still don't know if I left him or he left me.
39:45The result's the same, I suppose.
39:49This Christmas was going to be so special.
39:55The first Christmas with our new baby.
39:57It's been the most miserable time of my life.
40:11I wanted to tell me about last night.
40:14But we should know something.
40:16We found fingerprints on the iron bar used against Kevin Barnes.
40:22Okay, let's get a phone monitor.
40:23See if you can check the pulse for me.
40:25I'm going to check the 200 for me.
40:28Okay.
40:29Everybody clear.
40:30Charging to 200.
40:31Shopping.
40:33Okay, so I'm going to ask you to turn it up to 360 for me.
40:35Charging to 360.
40:37Everybody clear.
40:38Shopping.
40:40Okay, he's no sister here again.
40:43I stopped off on the way home to buy a bottle to keep me company.
40:48I do that a lot these days.
40:52As I was walking along Foundry Street,
40:55I saw Kevin.
40:58He was drunk.
41:00He was really drunk.
41:03He was trying to stop taxes, but they didn't want to know.
41:06I tried to turn back, but he saw me.
41:15And then he was...
41:16He was right in my face.
41:18He was...
41:19He was yelling at me.
41:22What was he saying?
41:23What stupid stuff.
41:31How does it feel to be a loser?
41:35How I wasn't tough enough to work with the big boys.
41:38How could it feel to be a loser to get pregnant?
41:48And then he...
41:50He grabbed my arm and...
41:53And I stepped back and...
41:55And he fell to his knees.
42:00But he was still yelling.
42:03He just couldn't shut up.
42:05And then I said...
42:10And I hope it was worth it.
42:14I saw the iron bar and skip in the road.
42:29And I...
42:29I grabbed it.
42:34And I came back to where he was leaving.
42:38And he was still laughing.
42:43And I just...
42:44I just swung it at his head with both hands.
42:49I don't think I'm worried to see him.
42:57He was still alive.
42:58I don't think I'm worried to see him.
43:01I'm still alive.
43:19I don't know.
43:38I don't think I was...
43:40Yeah.
43:43Yeah.
43:44Yeah.
