00:00Previously on The Bill
00:04Neil, I just found out my husband has had an affair
00:07I'd like you to take some leave so that you can grieve as you need to
00:10You're saying that D.I. Manson is involved in witness intimidation
00:14I'm saying we believe that D.I. Manson is corrupt
00:30Julie, Julie, listen, this is my wife's case
00:39Look, we talked through this, I can't give you any more advice
00:43It's a National Crime Squad investigation, I can't get involved
00:46Look, speak to Philippa, not me
01:00Hello
01:12Good day
01:14I didn't know you were cooking, earlier, sorry
01:19It's okay
01:21Did Jake get to bed okay?
01:24Yeah
01:24I'm gonna go get changed
01:28Neil, is there somebody in our garden?
01:58Hey!
02:28Did you get a good look at them?
02:42Here, let me do it
02:43It's alright, I've got it
02:44Who'd want to steal our rubbish?
02:52Someone who wanted to know our secrets, I guess
02:54Assuming we still have any
02:57Isn't that what journalists do, go through other people's rubbish?
03:01This has got nothing to do with my affair with Andrea
03:04You seem very sure
03:05Yeah, well, you're the one who's handling the high-profile prosecution
03:08I shred all my old documents
03:09Peter McGowan doesn't know that
03:10Maybe this has got something to do with you
03:12Someone looking to blackmail you
03:14Well, should we report it?
03:18Up to you
03:19Neil, you've burnt your bloody dinner
03:24Why's the phone unplugged?
03:36Because Julie kept ringing
03:37You're gonna have to speak to her
03:40Well, what does she want?
03:41Oh, to let off steam
03:43She's just paranoid about testifying against McGowan
03:45I told her, she's your witness
03:47From now on, she speaks to you
03:49She's left a message
03:50You should listen to this
03:53She's upset
03:54Sounds like someone's been threatening her
03:55Neil
03:56I'm gonna call her back
03:58Hang on
03:59Wait a minute
04:00This was in the smoke alone
04:07What is it?
04:09It's a book
04:10A probe
04:11It's a listening device
04:15Is it still on?
04:17No, I've disconnected it
04:18Well, how long has it been there?
04:19Are there any others?
04:19How did they get in?
04:20I don't know
04:20Have you had anyone around saying that from the gas or the electric?
04:25Well, you've been the housewife recently
04:26You tell me
04:27Well, we've been broken into
04:29And it's a very professional job
04:32It's as good as it gets
04:33I can't be connected in my case
04:35Why not?
04:38McGowan's a very powerful man
04:40If he's found guilty of money, Lorna
04:42And then he's gonna want to be desperate for the trial to collapse
04:45Yeah, but he's on remand
04:46He's got lackeys on the outside
04:48His son Gordon, for one
04:50You need to listen to this message
04:52Why have you hung up on me?
04:56I'm scared, I need help
04:58Please
04:59I'm gonna report this to the police
05:01It might have been the police who planted this
05:03NCS?
05:04More than possible
05:05What?
05:06Besides, if it was McGowan, he'd have bugged your chambers
05:08Well, he might have done
05:09I'm gonna have to search everything
05:10We need to look at this from a police point of view
05:13If they've got wind that McGowan wants the case to collapse
05:16Where are they gonna look for evidence?
05:19You're not gonna be the first prosecution barrister to be offered a bribe
05:22Or blackmailed
05:23God
05:24Don't take it personally
05:26The Met like to cover all the angles
05:28I really don't like this
05:29I want to make a complaint
05:30No, hang on, wait a minute, okay?
05:31We don't know what's going on here
05:33I need to check it all out
05:35I'll come see the DCI in the morning
05:39If this is one of ours, I can put him straight
05:42And if it's not?
05:43Then the police will help us
05:45What are you doing?
05:49You might have eaten
05:50I haven't
05:52Go
06:14Well, like I said before, all you've got is a picture of the DI with this woman
06:22Julie Hemming
06:23Only the chief prosecution witness in our case against McGowan
06:26Or should I say was
06:28Suddenly she's refusing to talk to us
06:30Putting our trial in jeopardy, which is why we're here
06:32Our question is
06:33What's she doing drinking coffee with your DI when he's off duty?
06:38Well, you may suspect he's corrupt
06:40But I know my officers
06:41You didn't know about his affair with PC Dunbar, though, did he?
06:44The point is, he's married to the prosecution barrister
06:47So?
06:48But which makes him uniquely placed
06:50His marriage is rocky
06:51His mistress is dead
06:52He's at home feeling sorry for himself
06:54McGowan comes along, offers him a nice juicy bun
06:56Manson uses his wife to gain access to the witness
06:59Who suddenly decides to clam up on us
07:02This is all conjecture
07:03Well, it's a theory for which we need evidence
07:06Which is where you come in, Gov
07:08It would make life easier, Andy
07:10If we could have your cooperation
07:11There's a couple of Neil Manson's cases
07:14We'd like to look into
07:14For evidence of corruption
07:16Go on
07:17Oh, Phil
07:18Are you doing all right?
07:19Yeah, I'm fine
07:19You just excuse me a minute, will you?
07:21Phil
07:21Did you know about the other PC Dunbar?
07:30Did you?
07:30What's this about?
07:34They've got the National Crime Squad in there
07:35Making a fool out of me
07:36In this whole bar
07:36I'm just going to get a coffee
07:39Okay, I'm just off to the gents
07:40I think you'll find you need to go as well
07:43So, who is this McGowan villain?
07:50He's a big-time villain
07:51Laundering drugs money through a chain of pubs and clubs in the East End
07:54On his trial, he's about to go tits up
07:57NCS have got it into their minds
07:59That Neil Manson's been leaning on their star witness
08:01They are
08:02There's no way
08:04They've got photos of them both together
08:06They want to know what's going on
08:08And right now, so do I
08:09So, I want you to sniff around
08:11Follow him, but
08:13Think he's great
08:14You've got it
08:15Susie?
08:21Oh, I didn't know you were coming in
08:22Good to see you
08:23I wanted to work with the DCI
08:25Oh, he's been tied up all morning
08:27No idea what with her
08:28Who's that?
08:32Liz Garrett
08:33DS for the National Crime Squad
08:34Well, I can do
08:36Neil
08:37Gov
08:39How's it going?
08:42Shouldn't you be at home?
08:44Well, I was
08:44A white word, actually
08:46In private
08:47Well, that won't be difficult at the moment
08:49Maybe later
08:51I'll see what I can do
08:51Okay, thanks
08:53Gov
08:53All right, Mickey
08:54What are you guys up to?
08:57Shouldn't you be enjoying your time off?
08:59You're not going to have any when you get back here
09:00True
09:01Shall we continue then?
09:03Yeah
09:04Catch you later, Phil
09:07So, what's the news?
09:17Not a lot
09:17Listen, I've got something to be getting on with
09:19But I'll speak to you later, yeah?
09:20Yeah
09:21Susie?
09:31Yeah
09:31What do you know about the McGowan case?
09:34Only what I've read in papers
09:36If you get wind of what this is about
09:38With DCI and MCS
09:40Any chance you can let me know?
09:42Yeah
09:42Sure
09:43Thanks
09:44Well, I doubt if you'll find anything
09:52Then I'll leave you to it
09:55Why do you think D.I. Manson came into it?
09:58Well, as you know, he said he wanted to discuss something
10:00And what was it about, do you think?
10:02I don't know
10:02Well, not psychic
10:03Well, it's a very high-profile case, Julie
10:09You're bound to be nervous
10:10There are people outside my house
10:12I'm scared, okay?
10:15Okay
10:15How many times have you seen them?
10:18Look, I can't remember
10:19But the McGowans are trying to kill me
10:22I know they are
10:23Gordon knows I saw too much
10:25Who could have think I could testify against his dad
10:29And get away with it
10:30What was I thinking?
10:31All right, Julie, calm down
10:32These people
10:34What do they look like?
10:37I don't know
10:38It was dark
10:38So you don't know if Gordon was one of them?
10:41Well, no, but they must be people connected to him
10:43You're not even listening
10:47They're following me
10:50Why would anyone take me seriously?
10:54Look, Julie
10:55You can't
10:55Julie, look
10:56Julie, I am listening
10:58Okay, just calm down
10:59Calm down
11:01Look
11:01This is really weird
11:02Look, I am listening
11:04I'm listening
11:05Let's just go back
11:08Can you talk?
11:10Or are you sitting down?
11:11Because I don't think you're going to like what I'm about to tell you
11:13D.I. Manson is talking to NCS's chief witness
11:17I think the best bet is for you to take this straight to the National Crime Squad
11:37Tell them what you've told me
11:39I'll drive you there myself
11:40I don't trust the police
11:41What do you mean?
11:44I've moved flats twice in the last week
11:45And they always know where I am
11:47Who?
11:48Gordon
11:48Or his mates
11:50The people have been threatening me
11:52But the NCS were the only ones who ever knew where I was
11:56So you're saying that a member of the NCS is in McGowan's pocket?
12:02Well, how else have they found out?
12:03Where are you staying now?
12:11Why do you want to know?
12:13Well, there's a chance that they might be booked
12:14I'll come with you
12:16You'll be safe with me
12:17How?
12:18How do I know you're not involved?
12:20Well, now you're just being ridiculous, aren't you?
12:23Look, Julie
12:24You were the one who came to my wife for advice
12:26Because she thought you had been followed
12:27She asked me to talk to you
12:29If I was involved
12:30Don't you think that's a huge coincidence?
12:31I'm not telling you anything anymore
12:34Look
12:35Julie
12:37Just go
12:38Right, it's like they've had a big argument
12:42Gubby's going one way, she's going the other
12:46I mean, who do you want me to follow?
12:48Well, she's the one at the root of all this
12:49So stick with her
12:50Fine
12:51You're right
12:52I mean, look, if you comment on this
13:09You've got a Hopkins
13:09Get in love
13:11You're right
13:12I love you
13:12You're right
13:13I love you
13:14You are right
13:15I love you
13:15She's gone.
13:24What do you mean she's gone?
13:25Hang on, I think someone's just pulled her into the back of the van.
13:27Look, I'm going to switch to radio, gov.
13:30Phil?
13:31All units, door all road.
13:34Woman's been pulled into the back of a blue van.
13:36Index is W774SEP.
13:39Heading up towards Burbeck Street fast.
13:41I'm following.
13:45The suspect's got a shotgun.
13:51They just fired at me.
13:52Phil, are you all right?
13:54What's happening, gov?
13:55Received ARV ETA.
13:57Phil, two minutes.
13:58Phil?
13:59It's all right, gov.
13:59I'm OK.
14:07You're turning left on Gabriel Hill.
14:13It looks like we got him trapped.
14:15Julie, can you hear me?
14:30Police, accident.
14:31I need an ambulance for Stearman Road.
14:33The female's been thrown out the back of the van and I've hit her.
14:38Julie Hemming has been run off.
14:39What?
14:40Where?
14:41Stearman Road.
14:42Is she hurt?
14:42She's on her way to St. Hugh's.
14:44Phil rings her, she's back.
14:45Phil?
14:46Yeah, he's with her now.
14:48How come?
14:49Well, she was snatched off the street.
14:50Phil happened to be there.
14:51Well, do you want to tell them what Phil was doing there?
14:56I asked them to look into things.
14:58I know what you're thinking, Mickey.
15:00But if someone told me you were dodgy, what would you expect me to do?
15:02Nothing.
15:02I know what you're doing.
15:07Hi.
15:10What happened?
15:12Hey, mate.
15:14Hi.
15:15Why don't you put your telly on and we'll watch your DVD, eh?
15:19OK.
15:23What did Jack say about the bro?
15:24Next time you've got an hysterical witness, deal with it yourself.
15:30I'm not getting dragged into this case anymore.
15:32What are you talking about?
15:32What did Jack say?
15:33I couldn't even speak to him.
15:35The whole station was crawling with NCS.
15:38Why?
15:39This whole thing is spinning out of control.
15:41Julie thinks someone from NCS is feeding them a gowns of information.
15:45I told her she was mad, but, you know, thinking about it.
15:48When did you see Julie?
15:49She said she needed to see me.
15:50Then she would let me help her.
15:51Maybe these threats against her are real.
15:55Maybe there is a leak in NCS.
15:57You're being paranoid.
15:58Yeah, well, it's infectious.
16:01What did Julie actually say?
16:05I'll tell you what, you speak to her.
16:07If you want to know, ask her yourself.
16:19You go through the sequence of events.
16:20It's logical that you do in South City.
16:22There's nothing you could have done, right?
16:25Leave it, sir.
16:29Well, look, after they shot at me, I just continued to pursue.
16:34I opened up the back of the door and then I just threw her out and I couldn't break in time.
16:38So, this van, do you know who they were?
16:41No.
16:45Did Julie Hemming say anything?
16:46Who's Julie Hemming?
16:50Any theories?
16:52Well, I'm guessing someone was watching.
16:54Just thought I was watching the BR.
16:55Look, how's he doing?
17:05Is he all right?
17:06Yeah, yeah, it's fine, yeah.
17:07Listen, when he's...
17:09Well, my boss would like a word.
17:10Sure.
17:10Oh, gov.
17:14We need to lose this system.
17:16Why?
17:17Well, you know what?
17:18D.I. Manson bought her home from Stafford Road.
17:20We don't want her compromised.
17:27Susie, can you run up a few witnesses?
17:29Yeah.
17:29Right, where were we?
17:36Well, obviously, D.I. Manson knew where she was and I was following him.
17:39But the point is, whoever abducted her, how did they know where she was going to be?
17:49Mrs. Manson, I'm Susie Sim.
17:52I believe we met once when I was working with your husband at Stafford Road.
17:55Right.
17:56I was wondering if I could have a word with him.
17:59Neil!
18:00Come in.
18:07So, how are things at Stafford Road these days?
18:10I'm at Sun Hill now.
18:11Neil got me the transfer.
18:13Susie?
18:14Sir.
18:16What's the news?
18:17Do you know a Julie Hemming?
18:24DCI Jack Meadow.
18:25Yes, Phil Hunter.
18:26This is DCI Victor Boris.
18:27Hello.
18:27Hi.
18:28Hi.
18:28Shall we get on with it?
18:29Yeah.
18:30Oh, shall we, Phil?
18:34Well, there's something rotten in the study of Denmark, I'd say.
18:38Unless you can provide an alternative explanation as to what D.I. Manson was doing associating
18:42with our witness.
18:43Well, perhaps if you hadn't alienated Julie Hemming in the first place, you wouldn't have
18:47to come here looking for the scapegoats.
18:48Well, let's hope she doesn't die.
18:49She's the only one who might be able to tell us what D.I. Manson was actually doing.
18:52Without her, Manson's dead and buried.
18:56Right.
18:57Right, she's got some CCTV for us.
19:01That's definitely the van.
19:02Do we recognise any of them?
19:03Do we recognise any of them?
19:08Not that it's been enhanced.
19:09Well, this one would well be Gordon McGowan.
19:10So what do we know about him?
19:11Not very much.
19:12Bit of a hothead, likes his father's finesse.
19:13But I'm more interested in knowing how you, Phil, happened to be there in the first place.
19:17I think you know the answer to that.
19:18Would you like to elaborate?
19:19Well, I wondered if you'd like to elaborate first.
19:20What do you mean?
19:21Well, you've got a witness who won't talk.
19:22You've got a trial that's about to collapse.
19:23And now you're spending your time making accusations of corruption against D.I. Manson
19:24I mean, apart from the odd photograph of Julie Hemming, what evidence have you got that he's
19:26trying to sabotage this trial?
19:27There's not so much evidence.
19:28So what do we know about him?
19:29Not very much.
19:30Bit of a hothead, likes his father's finesse.
19:31But I'm more interested in knowing how you, Phil, happened to be there in the first
19:32place.
19:33I think you know the answer to that.
19:34Would you like to elaborate?
19:35Well, I wondered if you'd like to elaborate first.
19:38What do you mean?
19:40Well, you've got a witness who won't talk.
19:42You've got a trial that's about to collapse.
19:44And now you're spending your time making accusations of corruption against D.I. Manson.
19:47I mean, apart from the odd photograph of Julie Hemming, what evidence have
19:51you got that he's trying to sabotage this trial?
19:53There's not so much evidence.
19:54There's intelligence.
19:55Something we've just received.
19:56What?
19:57No, sorry.
19:59But I can tell you it's solid.
20:01Rock solid.
20:06So what was Phil doing there?
20:08Was he following me?
20:10I don't know anything else apart from what I've told you, Gov.
20:13What's going on?
20:15It's complicated.
20:18But I need you to trust me.
20:20Of course.
20:22Do me a favour.
20:24Found this in a smoke alarm.
20:27I need to know if it was the police.
20:29Look, Susie, I'll explain everything when I can.
20:35I'll try my best.
20:36I'm sorry about D.I. Manson.
20:37Well, don't be sorry till there's something you be sorry for.
20:42I might not be as close to him as I was to you, but I'd trust him just the same.
20:47Well, I wouldn't trust any of you.
20:48I don't work for you anymore.
20:49So what do you reckon?
20:50So what do you reckon?
20:51Well, they found rock solid evidence that Neil was corrupt.
20:52They'd stop faffing about and arrest him.
20:53But they haven't.
20:54We could call the hospital.
20:55We could call the hospital.
20:56Officially we don't know she's been hurt.
20:57It's not been reported.
20:58It's not been reported.
20:59Did you tell her?
21:00Susie?
21:01It's not been reported.
21:02Did you tell her?
21:03Susie?
21:04It's not been reported.
21:05But I'd trust him just the same.
21:06Well, I'd trust him just the same.
21:07Well, I wouldn't trust any of you.
21:08I don't work for you anymore.
21:09So what do you reckon?
21:10Well, they found rock solid evidence that Neil was corrupt.
21:12They'd stop faffing about and arrest him.
21:14But they haven't.
21:22We could call the hospital.
21:23Officially we don't know she's been hurt.
21:25It's not been reported.
21:26Did you tell her?
21:27Susie?
21:28Tell her what?
21:29About Julie, that she was worried about the NCS.
21:31Don't be ridiculous.
21:33Then what was Susie doing here?
21:34Telling me about the accident.
21:36I asked her this morning to keep me in the loop when she saw NCS were involved.
21:39Why?
21:40At some point, we're going to have to start trusting one another again.
21:45Yeah, well, that has to be planned.
21:47And such a thing was forgiveness.
21:48Oh, and you were always so good at that, weren't you, Neil?
21:50Oh, this is ridiculous.
21:51I don't care what you say.
21:52Well, put that probe.
21:53Philippa, wait.
21:54Mrs Matheson, I've once searched his premises for money and correspondence.
21:58Mickey, you know she's a lawyer.
21:59You start making false accusations, you'll regret it.
22:01It's not your wife we're interested in, Neil.
22:02It's you.
22:03Sneaking in the back way.
22:04I wouldn't have thought that was your style, DS work.
22:06Well, with respect, sir, given your position, we thought we'd be more discreet.
22:08Does this look familiar?
22:09No idea what you're talking about.
22:10Yeah, right.
22:11I don't know.
22:12I don't know.
22:13I don't know.
22:14I don't know.
22:15It's not your wife we're interested in, Neil.
22:16It's you.
22:21Sneaking in the back way.
22:22I wouldn't have thought that was your style, DS work.
22:24Well, with respect, sir, given your position, we thought we'd be more discreet.
22:27Does this look familiar?
22:30No idea what you're talking about.
22:34Yeah, right.
22:36All right.
22:57Sarge.
23:31If she dies...
23:32Well, the nurses try to be optimistic.
23:34Yeah, well, it's not just me that I'm worried about.
23:36It's the DI, too.
23:37I mean, Jimmy's the one best place to put him in the clear.
23:40I'm not, as the case may be.
23:42Are you saying?
23:43Look, supposing the DI is kosher?
23:48Suppose.
23:49I want him to be innocent, believe me.
23:52But I trusted Don Beach once.
23:53I don't know where I'd go, mate.
23:54If he is innocent, somebody's dripping poison into the air of NCS.
23:57Maybe it's Pippa.
23:58I mean, wrong wife and all that.
23:59She's not that spiteful, shall they?
24:00There's someone in mind, Nick.
24:01Sir, get off.
24:02Maybe I can...
24:03Nick.
24:04Nick.
24:05Nick.
24:06Nick.
24:07Nicky.
24:08Yeah?
24:09Thanks.
24:10Gov.
24:11Maybe I should maintain the surveillance on the DI.
24:13Perhaps there's something going on that we don't know about.
24:14I'll tell you where he is now, if you like.
24:15That was Nicky.
24:16The DI and his wife have been taken into Barton Street for questioning.
24:18What?
24:19What?
24:20What?
24:21What?
24:22What?
24:23What?
24:24What?
24:25What?
24:26What?
24:27What?
24:28What?
24:29What?
24:30What?
24:31What?
24:32What?
24:33What?
24:34What?
24:35What?
24:36What?
24:37What?
24:38What?
24:39What?
24:40What?
24:41What?
24:42What?
24:47What?
24:53What?
24:54What?
24:55What?
24:56What?
24:57How?
24:58What?
24:59What?
25:00This is the story of beauty.
25:01As you told me, others, grey.
25:02I've got nothing to hide.
25:15I found it in the smoke detector.
25:17When you found the probe, why didn't you report it?
25:19I thought it might be one of yours.
25:21Really?
25:23Either it was put there maliciously,
25:25or in the mistaken belief that someone in my house was corrupt,
25:27I wanted to believe the latter.
25:29I wanted to deal with the matter discreetly,
25:31avoiding embarrassment.
25:33Well?
25:34The probe?
25:35Yeah, the probe.
25:36We're NCS, Jack, not MI5.
25:38But I take it you're going to find out who put it there?
25:41We're looking into every possibility.
25:43My wife and I have nothing wrong.
25:45There is no immediate urgency.
25:47So?
25:49So what?
25:51So, cards on the table.
25:53Is it one of yours?
25:55Is this where you say, we ask the questions?
26:02Can you explain how this money came to be hidden in your son's bedroom?
26:08No.
26:09Five thousand pounds of used notes found under your son's mattress, and you have no idea?
26:15How much pocket money does he get, I wonder?
26:18All I know, it's not mine.
26:20Whose is it then?
26:21I don't know.
26:22Your wife's?
26:23Well, you'd have to ask her.
26:26Doesn't sound very characteristic though, she tends to use a bank.
26:29Who else's could it be?
26:31The same person or people responsible for the probe.
26:35And their motives?
26:38Someone is setting me up.
26:42When did you first come to meet Julie Hemming?
26:45When she came to my house.
26:47What did you talk about?
26:48Nothing, she was there to see my wife.
26:50She was worried about testifying, she thought she had been followed.
26:53You know we've got evidence of you meeting her on your own?
26:56Well, my wife later asked me to advise her as an impartial police officer.
27:00Julie was concerned that the information she was given the police was somehow finding its way back to the McGowan's.
27:10So you discussed the case?
27:13Only in that respect.
27:17When was the last time you saw her?
27:19This morning, she asked to see me.
27:22What?
27:23About the same concerns about her safety, she was very agitated.
27:26She went she that soon after I arrived and given what happened to her five minutes later it wasn't entirely unreasonable sufficiently.
27:34Did you discuss the case with your wife?
27:36Only in relation to Julie's concerns.
27:38How did you discover that Julie had been injured?
27:40No comment.
27:41Who told you?
27:50No comment.
27:51I was doing so well.
27:52You're going to have to release him.
27:53I mean what exactly have you got?
27:54Pro-tem Jack.
27:55Pro-tem Jack.
27:56Pro-tem.
27:57I have no idea how the money came to be at my house nor who put it there.
28:00Julie Hemming came to see me in relation to a case.
28:01The reason for Miss Hemming's visit is privileged information.
28:02I have nothing further to say.
28:03She's good, calm, controlled.
28:04I don't believe a word of it.
28:05Did you ever discuss the case with your husband, Mrs. Martin?
28:06I refer you to my statement.
28:07I refer you to my statement.
28:08I'm trying Mrs. Munson exhibit MW3.
28:09It's an electronic bug.
28:10Have you ever seen this before?
28:11I refer you to my statement.
28:12I have nothing else to say.
28:13I refer you to my statement.
28:14I have a good marriage, Mrs. Munson.
28:15I have nothing further to say.
28:16She's good, calm, controlled.
28:18I don't believe a word of it.
28:20Did you ever discuss the case with your husband, Mrs. Munson?
28:23I refer you to my statement.
28:24I'm trying Mrs. Munson exhibit MW3.
28:27It's an electronic bug.
28:28Have you ever seen this before?
28:30I refer you to my statement.
28:31I have nothing else to say.
28:33What do you think I had a good marriage, Mrs. Munson?
28:36What was the name of that PC that he was in the sack with?
28:38She's an undercover journalist, wasn't she?
28:40No comment.
28:41When did you find out Julie had been hurt?
28:44No comment.
28:45You did not.
28:46Would you like me to read my statement again?
28:48Perhaps a little slower this time.
28:57I made some dinner.
29:00I've already eaten.
29:02Jake's asleep.
29:05Well?
29:07Well what?
29:09Well, it wasn't my money.
29:11Well, it certainly wasn't mine.
29:13Someone put it there.
29:14Maybe Jake robbed a bank.
29:19Tell me everything you know about Julie.
29:21That's privileged information.
29:23Even it weren't, there's nothing to tell.
29:25Right now, she's the only person who can put me in the clear.
29:27You only ever think about yourself, don't you?
29:29If this case goes down, how do you think it's going to affect me?
29:31God's sake, Phillip.
29:32I...
29:33We shouldn't be fighting.
29:34We shouldn't be fighting at a time like this.
29:38What do you tell them?
29:39Only what I said in my statement.
29:40What about you?
29:41Just why I met Julie.
29:42And about the probe.
29:44Did they own up?
29:45Well, they're hardly going to do that, are they?
29:47Even if the probe was theirs, the 5K certainly wasn't.
29:50Which would mean two sets of people breaking into our house without us noticing.
29:51Doesn't make sense.
29:52So what's the plan?
29:53Well, other than waiting for Julie Hemming to recover, I haven't got one.
29:57I haven't got one.
30:20Well, I doubt if you'll trace that book back to anybody.
30:40You know, those type of listening devices can be bought and sold anywhere.
30:43He's just doing some research, Cove.
30:45For a friend.
30:46Neil is the innocent one in all of this.
30:47I can't just sit here and do nothing.
30:49We're not. But that doesn't change the facts, either.
30:52But if I could prove where the probe came from, then we might be able to steal this away from him.
30:56Well, for a start, NCS had denied its theirs.
30:58And I'm sure that whoever did plant it there didn't leave a trail.
31:01What else can we do?
31:03We can let the evidence speak for itself, and that's not a suggestion.
31:06You're on my team.
31:07So you don't look into anything without informing me first.
31:11Gov.
31:11If Neil's innocent, we're 100% behind him.
31:14If?
31:15Get some sleep. You're going to need it.
31:19You're going to need it.
31:30Butch, do you have any idea what time it is?
31:33At the third stroke, it will be 2.29. Precisely.
31:36Beep. Beep.
31:37Look, I'm not in the mood. What do you want?
31:39To see you.
31:41Well, you can wait.
31:42Not really.
31:44What's this about?
31:46You, your career, your lovely wife, not forgetting, of course, me.
31:50I might decide how to stay out of jail if at all possible.
31:55Okay. Where are you?
31:56Downstairs in your kitchen.
31:58Just about to port a gallon.
31:59Fancy a cup of tea?
32:00What the hell do you think you're doing?
32:14I'm looking for tea bags.
32:16How did you get in?
32:17Well, I would have run the bill, but I know you've got a little one.
32:21Your wife would probably only moan about her beautifully being interrupted.
32:25If I know anything about women, which, of course, I don't, because, let's face it, which of us does?
32:34I asked you how you got in.
32:36I might as well, through your back door.
32:39Five-lever Mortis lock, which, of course, your lock recommends, but, let's face it, it's meat and drink to the likes of me.
32:46So you planted the bug?
32:48I cannot tell a lie.
32:50And the five grand?
32:50It was supposed to be ten, but, being the duplicitous little git that I am, I get five back for meself.
33:01Shopping.
33:02Ooh, milk and sugar.
33:04You working for NCS?
33:05The cops?
33:07I'm not that bad.
33:08Really?
33:09Seems to remember you've given me plenty of information.
33:12Yeah, well, that's because I like you.
33:17Just milk.
33:17Look, so if it's not NCS, who is it?
33:21I'm a professional, Mr Manson, and you know me, I abhor violence.
33:26Most of all, when it's being directed against me, of course, but when it involves women...
33:30You're working for the McGowan's?
33:33I'm a burglar.
33:35An honourable calling.
33:37But I draw the line at murder.
33:39Well, almost murder.
33:41What are you talking about?
33:42You don't know this, but Gordon McGowan does.
33:48One of his girlfriends has got a girlfriend who works as a nurse.
33:53Butch, what are you saying?
33:57Gordon's really pleased at this.
34:00I don't think you will, but I...
34:02What?
34:06Julie Amin fell into a coma two hours ago.
34:09There's no way she's going to wake up.
34:18Let me get this straight.
34:21Gordon McGowan approached you.
34:23No.
34:24Who, then?
34:25On or amongst thieves, Mr Manson, the bloke involved was just a go-between.
34:30No names were ever mentioned.
34:32So how do you know it came from Gordon?
34:34I don't.
34:35I'm putting two and two together.
34:38Your missus is prosecuting Peter McGowan, right?
34:41Yeah.
34:41And someone wants a bug installed in your kitchen.
34:44What about the five grand?
34:46What, you tell me.
34:47Make out she was taking a bang, I guess.
34:51The thing is, I knew Julie Amin when she's the guy out with Gordon.
34:56I liked her.
34:57You knew she was going to testify against his dad.
35:01Do you know why?
35:02Because she didn't know what she was getting herself into with Gordon's family.
35:06It's all way too much.
35:09Dirty business.
35:11Next thing you know, she's been thrown out of the back of her van.
35:14How do you know about the accident, Butch?
35:19You know, I've gone out on a limb for you, Mr Manson.
35:22And there's a distinct lack of gratitude.
35:25Hang on.
35:26What are you doing here?
35:28Just one good deeper today.
35:30No.
35:32I know you better than that.
35:34You're more involved in this than you're letting on.
35:37So come on, it's just me and you.
35:38It's off the record.
35:39If I tell you this, I'm counting on you to see me right here.
35:43I can't do anything, Butch.
35:44I'm not working.
35:46I need your help.
35:48Do you know, people?
35:49You can pull strings.
35:50I can't.
35:52I could be looking alive here.
35:53I swear on my mother's grave, I was just offered a job.
35:58I had no idea what they were planning.
36:01What are you talking about?
36:03I was driving the van.
36:06If Gordon ever gets word, I've come to see you.
36:09I'm a dead man.
36:10Yeah, all right.
36:10Well, listen, I can make a phone call, get you into a protective custody.
36:13Oh, no, that's just it.
36:15Gordon's got someone on the inside.
36:17One of your lot.
36:19Who?
36:21If I knew that, don't you think I'd tell you?
36:23Right now, you're the only one I don't trust.
36:26Yeah.
36:29I'll go.
36:31You want me to lock the door after me, or she'll rather make it to you.
36:35Oh, lovely night, Chris.
36:47McGowan's got a cop in his pocket.
36:50If I don't find out who, we're in big trouble.
37:06We're at a bit of a loss as to know what you want, Jack.
37:09Well, I want to know if you're going to arrest my officer.
37:12No insinuation against your intended, Jack, but it might not be altogether appropriate for us to discuss that.
37:17I resent that implication.
37:19Gov, if you don't mind me saying, one of your strengths as a DCI is more the loyalty you display to all your officers.
37:26Which, given the circumstances, what, might now be considered a weakness.
37:30Gov.
37:38It's not a good time right now.
37:39Well, I'll make it quick.
37:40There's something you need to know.
37:42The McGowan's have got someone in NCS working for them.
37:45Yeah, yeah.
37:47Where are you, Gov?
37:48Who are you with?
37:48Yeah, okay.
37:49Well, thanks for getting in touch.
37:50Yeah.
37:50Gov.
37:51Bye.
37:51You were saying something about a weakness?
38:07Gordon McGowan.
38:08Do I know you?
38:09I know you.
38:11D.R. Manson, possibly.
38:13Or shouldn't that just be playing mister these days?
38:15You have got your ears to the ground, haven't you?
38:17How does it feel to have rejoined the human race?
38:19What would you know about that?
38:21I wouldn't call what you do human, would you?
38:24Now, you're not trying to provoke me by any sorts, are you?
38:26Well, that's not very hard by all accounts.
38:28Probably suit you down the ground, wouldn't it?
38:29I took a swing at you.
38:31Sadly, I am a man of peace.
38:33Not what I've heard.
38:35Don't want to believe everything Julie says.
38:36Julie's not saying anything these days.
38:39Probably never will again, thanks to you.
38:41Easy, Tiger.
38:42You're letting your imagination run wild.
38:44I heard it was a copper's car run over.
38:47How would you know that, eh, Gordon?
38:50It's not been officially announced.
38:52Maybe I'll just psych it.
38:56Well, I'm on to you.
38:57And I know who your old man's got in his pocket.
39:01Now, there's a threat.
39:03I'm terrified.
39:05Should be.
39:06Because right now, I'm not working as a copper.
39:09There's no rules.
39:10If Neil's right, Victor Bryce, Mickey Webb and Liz Garrett are all in the frame.
39:23Where did the AI get this information from?
39:26I've no idea.
39:27And do we believe him?
39:31What are you thinking?
39:32If he is bent, he knows NCS are on to him.
39:38What's he going to do?
39:41He's going to turn on his accusers.
39:44Exactly.
39:44Butch, unless you've got something to give me, we're not going to have this conversation.
40:04Just tell me who it is.
40:06Who's corrupting NCS?
40:11All right.
40:12I'll meet you there.
40:13Oh, Scott.
40:21According to the Telephone Investigations Unit, Neil received a call from one James Cassidy at 2.29am this morning and another one just half an hour ago.
40:30What's this?
40:31TIU did a cell site analysis on Neil's phone.
40:33On what grounds?
40:35There wasn't time to discuss ethics, Phil.
40:36I just told them what they needed to hear.
40:38Do we know this James Cassidy?
40:40I know him.
40:42Ironically known as Butch.
40:44A cat burglar.
40:45Could bypass any alarm.
40:46Pick any lock in seconds.
40:48The actual criminal genius.
40:50Sometimes he's always getting caught.
40:52I always had a bit of a soft spot for him.
40:54But the question is, why is Neil contacting Butch at a time like this?
40:57Have we got an address for him?
40:59No.
41:01No associates.
41:02Gordon McGill.
41:03Gordon McGill.
41:03Gordon McGill.
41:03Gordon McGill.
41:04Gordon McGill.
41:04Did TIU manage to pin a location on Neil's phone?
41:08Only that he's on the move, sir.
41:09All right, call him.
41:19That's fine.
41:20What's he doing?
41:22I couldn't think of one person of mine, though.
41:24Is that right?
41:25Yeah.
41:26Butch, it's me.
41:46I'm on my own.
41:48There's nothing to worry about.
41:48Butch.
41:53Come in, Mr. Manson.
41:55It's open.
42:03Sorry, Mr. Manson.
42:04Get up.
42:05I had to do it.
42:08I was training him to kill me.
42:13What the hell are you doing to him?
42:16You said you weren't going to hurt him.
42:19I haven't seen Neil since firstly this morning.
42:22Well, we'd like you to call us when he returns.
42:24Neil doesn't trust anyone at the moment.
42:27I'm sure you understand when I say that the police aren't exactly flavour the month in this house right now.
42:32Well, we are on his side.
42:33You would say that, though, wouldn't you?
42:38Have you seen this man before?
42:45Pippa.
42:46It could be important.
42:49He was here late last night.
42:52I didn't talk to him.
42:53He left when I came downstairs.
42:57Why was he here?
42:59Neil wouldn't say.
42:59He seemed very agitated after he'd left, though.
43:04Did he say why?
43:06He seems to think someone in the NCS is working for the McGowns and that they helped set him up.
43:11Excuse me.
43:11Susie.
43:16Yeah.
43:17Neil's phone has been in the same place for the last half an hour.
43:21After looking at the map, I'd say he's somewhere on Wendell Street.
43:23Thank you, Susie.
