00:00:00Two five pound notes.
00:00:09Check the serial numbers on those as well.
00:00:18The serial numbers on the five pound notes in your wallet.
00:00:22Follow one from the one we found in Lena Henderson's handbag.
00:00:25I didn't kill her.
00:00:27You said you didn't know her.
00:00:30She was blackmailing me.
00:00:32Why?
00:00:33My brother's trial.
00:00:36I'm in a pub up near the law courts.
00:00:40Seen a couple of the jurors.
00:00:41I got talking, had a cup of drinks, you know.
00:00:44Tried to convince someone Arnie was innocent.
00:00:47She saw me.
00:00:49She was in the pub.
00:00:50She told you you could be charged with attempting to pervert the course of justice.
00:00:54Aye.
00:00:55I'll go to prison.
00:00:57And she asked me for money.
00:00:58How many times since?
00:01:00Four times.
00:01:01How did you pay her?
00:01:02Meet her at a pub.
00:01:03Give her the cash.
00:01:04Did you ever go to your house?
00:01:06Never.
00:01:06How did you find out her address?
00:01:07I don't know her address.
00:01:11Where were you last Thursday night?
00:01:13Thursday.
00:01:14Oh, come on.
00:01:15Two nights ago.
00:01:18I saw a couple of mates.
00:01:19I watched a video.
00:01:20Who framed Roger Rabbit?
00:01:23Two people have confirmed Mackenzie's alibi.
00:01:36If Lena Henderson was blackmailing one person, it's likely she was blackmailing others.
00:01:40No other names in the book, sir.
00:01:42Just figures.
00:01:43Then we must go through Balmain's list of cases again.
00:01:46Lena could have attended any number of trials that were unconnected with Balmain.
00:01:50Is there anything that links Fred Scott with Lena Henderson?
00:01:53Just the post office.
00:01:54Oh, sir, I've got a dress rehearsal.
00:01:56Festival club.
00:01:56Well, hold Mackenzie.
00:01:58Charging him in an attempt to pervert the course of justice.
00:02:01You're convinced he had nothing to do with it?
00:02:02The man's a prat, sir.
00:02:05But he's no big enough prat to want to murder her.
00:02:08I can cancel.
00:02:09But I need to know now, sir.
00:02:18All right, Pete.
00:02:19I'm off to my bed now.
00:02:21Are the police coming back at all?
00:02:23How should I now?
00:02:32I'm off to my bed now, but I'm off to my bed now, but I'm off to my bed now.
00:03:02I'm off to my bed now, but I'm off to my bed now, but I'm off to my bed now.
00:03:32I'm off to my bed now, but I'm off to my bed now, but I'm off to my bed now.
00:04:02I'm off to my bed now, but I'm off to my bed now, but I'm off to my bed now.
00:04:32My fiancée.
00:04:34Hey, Jackie.
00:04:36Hello.
00:04:37We've got to be going.
00:04:39Thanks for coming.
00:04:46That seems to have what?
00:04:48Fiancée, is it?
00:04:50You can lick off my hand now.
00:04:54If you want.
00:05:02Fiancée, is it?
00:05:32What's happening?
00:05:39What are you doing in here, Mr. Brown?
00:05:42Have you been drinking?
00:05:44I don't know what all the fuss is about.
00:05:47All the screaming.
00:05:50I just came into the wrong room by mistake.
00:05:54Now, come on, Mr. Brown.
00:05:56I shall have words with you in the morning.
00:05:59Keep your hands off me.
00:06:02Don't flatter yourself that I was after you, Sophie.
00:06:09I wouldn't waste my time.
00:06:11Now, come on.
00:06:13What a load of nonsense.
00:06:16You haven't heard the last of this.
00:06:19I'll be looking for you.
00:06:21I'm very sorry about this, Sophie.
00:06:29Are you all right?
00:06:36I can't find Sophie anywhere.
00:06:38Have you asked everyone?
00:06:39Nobody's seen her since breakfast.
00:06:42She hasn't told anyone she was going out.
00:06:45I take it you like to be kept informed when they go out.
00:06:48It's the rules.
00:06:50Fire regulations.
00:06:51I hope it has nothing to do with that bit of bother we had last night.
00:06:55One of our mail residents went into her room.
00:06:58It was nothing serious.
00:06:59It gave her a bit of a fright.
00:07:00Well, give me a ring when she gets back.
00:07:03I'd like to talk to her again.
00:07:04Of course.
00:07:06Excuse me.
00:07:17What are you doing here?
00:07:19I work here.
00:07:20Can we keep walking?
00:07:21You mean you work here and at the post office?
00:07:23Please, don't tell Mrs. Pritchard to.
00:07:25You've got more than Mrs. Pritchard to worry about.
00:07:28Come on.
00:07:38It can't be much fun for you taking me out every Sunday, Alice.
00:07:42Nonsense.
00:07:43I can't think of anyone with whom I'd rather spend a Sunday.
00:07:46Wish you'd find yourself a nice young lady.
00:07:49I neglect you.
00:07:50That wouldn't do.
00:07:53A man came into my room last night.
00:07:57Who was he?
00:07:58A resident at the home.
00:08:01He burst in and started threatening me.
00:08:04Most objectionable man.
00:08:05I think he'd been drinking.
00:08:06But you managed to get rid of her.
00:08:08The staff saved me.
00:08:11Otherwise, I don't know what might have happened.
00:08:14I couldn't sleep a wink.
00:08:16Oh, I'm sure it was nothing to get upset about, Aunt Sophie.
00:08:20Perhaps he was attracted to you.
00:08:21Oh, don't be ridiculous.
00:08:26And let a man come near me since your uncle died.
00:08:30Oh, of course, you never knew him.
00:08:33You were only about three.
00:08:34Five, Aunt Sophie.
00:08:35And I do vaguely remember him.
00:08:36That old house has so many memories for me.
00:08:42That old house will soon be sold.
00:08:45And you're better off where you are.
00:08:47Where were you last Thursday night?
00:08:57I worked at the home.
00:08:59That was Sophie McQueen's first night, correct?
00:09:01That's right.
00:09:01So you knew Lena Henderson was in the house in the rowing?
00:09:06I never thought about it.
00:09:08Was she blackmailing you?
00:09:10Blackmailing me?
00:09:11About what?
00:09:12What do you tell me?
00:09:14You were moonlighting at the post office.
00:09:17If Mrs Pritchard had heard about it, you'd lose your job, wouldn't you?
00:09:20Not necessarily.
00:09:20Oh, come on.
00:09:23You were a care assistant on night shift.
00:09:26You were supposed to keep wide awake to look after the people.
00:09:29If Mrs Pritchard knew you had a job during the day, she'd have given you the sack.
00:09:33Is that right?
00:09:37Isn't that right?
00:09:38It's all right.
00:09:39But she wasn't blackmailing me.
00:09:40She kept a notebook.
00:09:43In it, she kept a close record of money.
00:09:46Now look at the bit where she's written her pension down.
00:09:49Next to it, she's written ten pound each time.
00:09:52Can you explain that?
00:09:53No.
00:09:54Was that the way you paid her off?
00:09:55I wouldn't pay that kind of money just to keep some old lady quiet.
00:09:58Maybe you killed her instead.
00:09:59No!
00:10:00Or perhaps it wasn't your money.
00:10:01It was the post office's.
00:10:03If I was fiddling the post office, I wouldn't need to do two jobs, would I?
00:10:05We're going to have to call the auditors in.
00:10:13Don't do that to Donald.
00:10:14Please.
00:10:21Seems a thin motive.
00:10:23I've more people to kill for less.
00:10:26What about Fred Scott, sir?
00:10:27Where does his murder fit in?
00:10:29I don't know.
00:10:30Maybe some other person murdered him.
00:10:32You can't bend the facts to suit the motives.
00:10:34Don't you ever accuse me of that.
00:10:38Hello, sir.
00:10:39Hi.
00:10:43If you get any friendly with her,
00:10:45you'll be posted to another station.
00:10:48And you won't be able to work with me again.
00:10:52That'd be a tragedy, sir.
00:11:04Can we have a word, please, Mr. King?
00:11:08Won't be long.
00:11:17It's about your boyfriend, Pete McCulloch.
00:11:20What's happened to him?
00:11:21We found out that he has another job at the Woodlands Park rest home.
00:11:24Yeah, he needs the money.
00:11:26What for?
00:11:27Well, Pete's only part-time at the post office.
00:11:29It's not a crime to have two jobs, is it?
00:11:31We're holding Mr. McCulloch in custody.
00:11:34We suspect he was being blackmailed by Lena Henderson.
00:11:36That's ridiculous.
00:11:38We believe he's connected with the death of Lena Henderson.
00:11:40He's been fiddling the post office books to make these payments.
00:11:45I do those figures every day, and there's no way any money's missing.
00:11:49We may have to call in the auditors.
00:11:50The post office has never lost a penny.
00:11:52We've worked hard to keep it open.
00:11:55He wasn't being blackmailed.
00:11:58I was.
00:12:04Where have you been?
00:12:06We've had everyone looking for you, including the police.
00:12:09I took my aunt out.
00:12:11Nobody knew.
00:12:12Aunt Sophie, didn't you tell anyone?
00:12:15You must tell us in future when you go out, Sophie.
00:12:19I've never been treated like a child in my life,
00:12:22and I don't intend to start here.
00:12:27It was a long time ago.
00:12:30The details will be in some file.
00:12:33I forged some checks belonging to my father.
00:12:35I was 19.
00:12:36I did six months in prison.
00:12:38And how did Lena Henderson know?
00:12:40She knew my father.
00:12:41They used to live in the same street.
00:12:43She knew that I'd done time.
00:12:44She was threatening to tell the post office.
00:12:47And they would have revoked your contract.
00:12:50Didn't you have to sign anything to see you had previous convictions?
00:12:53Yeah.
00:12:54And you said no.
00:12:55That's a criminal offence.
00:12:57I know.
00:12:59And she blackmailed you.
00:13:00I'm only admitting this because you had the wrong idea about Pete.
00:13:03Very touching.
00:13:06The night Lena Henderson was murdered,
00:13:07I was at my sister's in Cambus Neth,
00:13:09and the night Fred Scott was murdered,
00:13:12Pete and I were together.
00:13:14Most people have to think about their alibis.
00:13:17If something's worrying you,
00:13:39spiritual healing may help to relax you.
00:13:41You're very persistent.
00:13:43I could tell.
00:13:45Ever since you've been here,
00:13:47something's been troubling you.
00:13:52Maybe you do have some powers.
00:13:57Look, I haven't told anybody this,
00:13:59not even my nephew.
00:14:00Your secret's safe with me.
00:14:01I want to go home.
00:14:07I don't want to stay here.
00:14:10That was silly ever to leave my home.
00:14:13It's not an uncommon feeling.
00:14:15It often takes time to settle in.
00:14:17No.
00:14:19That's not it.
00:14:22Oh, I can't explain.
00:14:25I don't know how I'm going to tell Alastair.
00:14:28But everyone here likes you.
00:14:29If Noel Brown says so,
00:14:32you'll be wonderfully looked after.
00:14:34No.
00:14:38There's something else.
00:14:39I should be looking at the end of this.
00:14:58I'll be learned at the end of this.
00:15:01You have been looking for you.
00:15:06Oh, I've been looking for you.
00:15:08Please leave me alone.
00:15:10Sorry about last night.
00:15:11I'm going to never mind.
00:15:12No, I want to apologize.
00:15:14Disgraceful behavior.
00:15:15It's quite all right.
00:15:16Let me give you a hand.
00:15:17No, thank you.
00:15:18I can manage.
00:15:19Please.
00:15:19It's hard to believe it's only your ankle.
00:15:37You won't be walking anywhere for a while, Sophie.
00:15:42You look to me like you had a dizzy spell.
00:15:44I'll call the doctor.
00:15:46I don't need a doctor.
00:15:48I'm all right.
00:15:49Sophie, you are our responsibility,
00:15:51and you're seeing the doctor.
00:15:53I'd rather see Commander Gunner.
00:15:55You can see them both.
00:15:57But you're seeing the doctor first.
00:16:01You can see them both.
00:16:31This is Lena's room.
00:16:41It's all right.
00:16:42I'll clear things in here.
00:16:44All I want is for you two to box up everything that's in the loft.
00:16:48And be careful.
00:16:49All I want is for you two to box up everything that's in the loft.
00:17:03All I want is for you two to box up everything that's in the loft.
00:17:24Are you all right?
00:17:37We're only walking around.
00:17:54Can you feel the heat?
00:18:09Yes.
00:18:13I'd think twice about going home if I were you.
00:18:17Don't worry about me.
00:18:21Imagine you're at home and had an accident.
00:18:24You're far better off here, where you can be taken care of.
00:18:32I think I've caused quite enough trouble already.
00:18:35I don't know.
00:18:35I think I've caused quite a lot of trouble already.
00:18:38hello it's been in there 30 years or more

00:20:15Okay.
00:20:45Thanks.
00:20:48There's only 36 pounds here.
00:20:50Wait to see.
00:20:59Sorry about that.
00:21:10It was underneath the body.
00:21:12There's an inscription.
00:21:14My beloved Winifred.
00:21:18Winifred?
00:21:19Aunt Winnie.
00:21:20She lodged with Sophie.
00:21:22Your aunt?
00:21:23No, not a real aunt.
00:21:24I only called her that.
00:21:25I was a boy at the time.
00:21:27Did you never wonder what happened to her?
00:21:29One day she just moved.
00:21:31Aye.
00:21:32Up to the Arctic.
00:21:34What have you been doing?
00:21:35Me too, and I found her mummy in the trunk.
00:21:37Don't lie to me.
00:21:38You're in some kind of trouble, aren't you?
00:21:39It's true.
00:21:40We did.
00:21:41You were meant to be at the laundrette.
00:21:42Hello, Mrs Atkin.
00:21:43I'm Detective Sergeant Jarden.
00:21:44You be quiet.
00:21:45You're in a police station.
00:21:46This policeman will put you in a cell
00:21:47and lock you up.
00:21:48I'm surprised.
00:21:49We'd like you to stay here
00:21:50while your daughter gives us a statement.
00:21:51What's she done?
00:21:52It's all right.
00:21:53She found a body.
00:21:54See?
00:21:55Will this be in the papers?
00:21:56We found a body in your attic, Sophie.
00:21:57Whose body?
00:21:58Well, we believe it's the body of your previous lodger, Winifred Forsyth.
00:22:00Oh.
00:22:01Is there anything you'd like to tell us?
00:22:02Yeah, I'm sorry.
00:22:03I'm sorry.
00:22:04I'm sorry.
00:22:05I'm sorry.
00:22:06I'm sorry.
00:22:07I'm sorry.
00:22:08I'm sorry.
00:22:09I'm sorry.
00:22:10We're out of my mouth.
00:22:12I'm sorry.
00:22:13You're out of my way!
00:22:14I'm sorry.
00:22:15You're out of my way.
00:22:16I'm sorry.
00:22:17I'm sorry.
00:22:18I'm sorry.
00:22:20You're sorry, I'm sorry.
00:22:21I'm sorry.
00:22:22I'm sorry.
00:22:23I'm sorry.
00:22:24I'm sorry.
00:22:25You needn't say anything if you don't wish to, Aunt Sophie.
00:22:28Now, look, I'm trying to do this the easy way.
00:22:31If you want the other thing, we'll go down to the station and we'll have a formal interview.
00:22:35I'm fine, Alistair.
00:22:39Is it Mrs Forsyth's body?
00:22:43How should I know?
00:22:46Where's in your attic?
00:22:49I haven't been able to get up to the attic for years because of my hip.
00:22:54Did Lena go up there?
00:22:57The body's been up there for 30 years.
00:23:00Where?
00:23:04It's in a trunk and it's marked with Mrs Forsyth's initials.
00:23:10Are you sure?
00:23:13I wonder if it must have left it behind.
00:23:24Why didn't you tell me you were being blackmailed?
00:23:34I didn't want to worry you.
00:23:36You should have told me.
00:23:38I was embarrassed.
00:23:39You can imagine paying an old woman money to keep her mouth shut.
00:23:43It was so cheap.
00:23:44If it was £10 a week, it was bloody expensive.
00:23:46I didn't want to lose the post office.
00:23:48If they found out I hadn't declared my conviction, that's what would happen.
00:23:52I always thought you had.
00:23:54A record for forgery?
00:23:56Come on.
00:23:57What do you think they are?
00:24:01I didn't kill her.
00:24:05I know.
00:24:05Why did the body look like that?
00:24:11It was horrible.
00:24:13It was mummified.
00:24:14It's a natural process.
00:24:16It occurs in a hot, dry atmosphere.
00:24:20It's like the plague of the zombies.
00:24:23Now, Mr Balmain, did he know you were up in the loft?
00:24:27He sent us up.
00:24:29What was he doing?
00:24:30He was sorting through Lena's things.
00:24:33Was he looking for something?
00:24:35I don't know.
00:24:36I could see he didn't want us in Lena's room, though.

00:31:53Oh, my God.
00:32:23Oh, my God.
00:32:53It's all right.
00:32:59These are healing hands.
00:33:04No prizes for guessing.
00:33:07She put up a struggle, though.
00:33:09Evidence of bruising round the shoulders as though she'd been pinned down.
00:33:13Poor Sophie.
00:33:14I was quite fond of her.
00:33:18Even though she had a body in the attic, sir?
00:33:21She had guts.
00:33:23How could this have happened?
00:33:25I'm terribly sorry, Mr Balmain.
00:33:27You must have had somebody on duty last night.
00:33:29We did.
00:33:30And we spent a lot of money last year on a scheme to make the building more secure.
00:33:35You obviously didn't spend enough.
00:33:36In my office, Mr Balmain.
00:33:38300 pounds a week.
00:33:40And my aunt would have been safer than living on her own.
00:33:42Was there anyone on duty last night, Mrs Pritchard?
00:33:48Pete McCulloch.
00:33:49He said he heard nothing.
00:33:51He couldn't have fallen asleep.
00:33:53My staff do not sleep on duty.
00:34:01I didn't see or hear anything.
00:34:04Were you asleep?
00:34:05No.
00:34:05Come on.
00:34:06You're doing two jobs, working day and night.
00:34:09When do you sleep?
00:34:10Not when I'm on duty.
00:34:11Two jobs?
00:34:12If you didn't hear anything or see anything last night, I want to know why.
00:34:17I may have nodded off.
00:34:19Peter, you know the rules.
00:34:22I do not allow moonlighting.
00:34:27Did Sophie have any visitors yesterday?
00:34:30Plenty.
00:34:31You were here all morning.
00:34:32Apart from us.
00:34:34Her nephew came back again in the evening.
00:34:37Our two girls came to see her as well.
00:34:39Girls?
00:34:40Schoolgirls?
00:34:41I don't know.
00:34:4215 or 16.
00:34:44Anyone else?
00:34:45Not that I can think of.
00:34:46Unless you count Commander Gunner.
00:34:50The spiritual healer?
00:34:51Yeah, he's here a lot.
00:34:53The old people seem to like him.
00:34:54I think he's a fake myself.
00:34:56Are you telling me that Commander Gunner is a regular visitor here?
00:35:22Not only that, he's been treating Sophie.
00:35:25Treating Sophie?
00:35:27Well, that's great.
00:35:29Why didn't anybody tell us?
00:35:30No one knew we might be interested.
00:35:35Two of our victims have had his spiritual healing.
00:35:39I think it's time Commander Gunner's ship came in.
00:35:41She tried to get us to help her commit suicide.
00:35:56Suicide?
00:35:58Well, why didn't you tell us?
00:36:00I promised we wouldn't tell anyone.
00:36:01Now, you two are supposed to be responsible teenagers.
00:36:07And you didn't think it was your duty to inform us.
00:36:10I thought we'd talked her out of it.
00:36:12Why did she want to commit suicide?
00:36:14She admitted that she killed that woman we found in the attic.
00:36:16This is vital information.
00:36:23You heard someone confess to a murder and you didn't report it.
00:36:27We thought about it, but we didn't want her to go to prison.
00:36:30How does she want you to help her to commit suicide?
00:36:32She asked us to get her a bottle of aspirin.
00:36:34We couldn't do it, though.
00:36:35Look, if you'd have told us,
00:36:37your friend Sophie may have been alive today.
00:36:44So,
00:36:45when will I know when I have to appear in court?
00:36:49You're keen to go back to prison, are you?
00:36:52You said you found no evidence of embezzlement or fraud.
00:36:55We've only just started.
00:36:58We'll be in touch, Mr King.
00:37:02Just wanted a stamp.
00:37:05I'm sorry.
00:37:06And when are you going to reopen?
00:37:07They've closed us down.
00:37:09What?
00:37:10I've got half a mile to walk to the next post office.
00:37:16Look.
00:37:18Here.
00:37:19Take these.
00:37:26Where have you been?
00:37:28I've lost my job.
00:37:29Yeah.
00:37:31Well, me too.
00:37:32Join the club.
00:37:35All this because I'm one blackmailing old.
00:37:42Hey.
00:37:45Forget it.
00:37:50Sir.
00:37:51No sign of gunner yet.
00:37:53I've changed my mind.
00:37:55I don't want them brought in.
00:37:57You've what?
00:37:57I don't want them to go.
00:37:59Michael, what do these three have in common?
00:38:03Fred Scott was depressed because his daughter wanted to put him into a home.
00:38:08Lena Henderson was being put out too.
00:38:10Sophie McQueen wanted to die.
00:38:12I suppose gunner helped them all.
00:38:17His healing hands could be killing hands, you mean.
00:38:20That's why I don't want him alerted.
00:38:22What evidence have we got?
00:38:23If we have to let him go, he might skip the country.
00:38:26None of these deaths seem like mercy killings to me.
00:38:29Me neither.
00:38:30You go to the Navy.
00:38:32Find out what you can about this commander gunner.
00:38:35I'll go to Balmain and see what he knows.
00:39:05Do you know anything yet?
00:39:16Couple of ideas.
00:39:19When you spoke to your aunt last night,
00:39:21did you know she was contemplating suicide?
00:39:24Suicide?
00:39:25Aunt Sophie.
00:39:28Are you trying to suggest that she smothered herself?
00:39:32We believe she murdered Mrs. Forsyth.
00:39:34I don't believe that.
00:39:36And when the body was found in the attic,
00:39:38she decided to commit suicide.
00:39:40That's nonsense.
00:39:42I knew my aunt.
00:39:43Not well enough, it seems.
00:39:45Sir, can I have a word?
00:39:49I've been through gunner's naval records.
00:39:51He was never a surgeon commander.
00:39:53He was a medical assistant.
00:39:54What's that?
00:39:55A nurse.
00:39:56He was discharged for disorderly conduct.
00:40:00Did your aunt ever mention a commander gunner?
00:40:04No.
00:40:06Never heard of him.
00:40:07If gunner has been committing euthanasia...
00:40:26You mean murder, sir?
00:40:28We'll set a trap.
00:40:30Break a few rules.
00:40:32What are you saying?
00:40:33A lure.
00:40:33We'll find a victim.
00:40:34Somebody to play a part.
00:40:35You mean an agent provocateur?
00:40:39Well, I didn't want to say the word, Michael.
00:40:40McVitie will never go along with it.
00:40:42McVitie doesn't have to know.
00:40:43We could be had up for aiding and abetting.
00:40:48I'm not asking him to break windows or smother people.
00:40:51And neither did his victims.
00:40:53I don't want anything to do with it.
00:40:54Michael, it's not a committee meeting.
00:40:59I know just the right person.
00:41:01Oh, dear.
00:41:06What have I done?
00:41:08Nothing, Dame Elizabeth.
00:41:10We'd like you to do us a favor.
00:41:12Let's say, quite a delicate matter.
00:41:15I don't feel very presentable.
00:41:17Don't you worry about that.
00:41:19Do you mind if we talk inside?
00:41:20Not at all.
00:41:24An agent provocateur?
00:41:27What do I have to do?
00:41:28You don't have to accept.
00:41:29We'd rather you didn't use that phrase.
00:41:32Very well.
00:41:34We want you to pose as a lady who needs spiritual healing
00:41:36and may be contemplating suicide.
00:41:39Because of some illness, perhaps?
00:41:42We'll leave the reason up to you.
00:41:44Is this man dangerous?
00:41:46There'll be no risk to you.
00:41:48We'll be here.
00:41:48His name's Commander Gunner.
00:41:59Try and make an appointment for tonight, if possible.
00:42:02Hello.
00:42:03Hello?
00:42:05Commander Gunner.
00:42:06Speaking.
00:42:07My name's Elizabeth Friel.
00:42:09Hello.
00:42:10Hello.
00:42:10I'm phoning about healing.
00:42:14Spiritual healing.
00:42:15I'd like to make an appointment with you.
00:42:18I could fit you in tomorrow.
00:42:19Tomorrow?
00:42:23I'm in urgent need.
00:42:25Well, how about eight o'clock tonight?
00:42:27Eight o'clock tonight?
00:42:29Fine.
00:42:30I don't think this is a good idea.
00:42:58No, no.
00:42:58No.
00:43:00What's happening?
00:43:03Sir?
00:43:04Have you found Gunner yet?
00:43:05We're going to see him now.
00:43:06I'll come with you.
00:43:07I don't want to trouble you, sir.
00:43:09We're big boys.
00:43:10We can handle it.
00:43:16You are pushing your luck, sir.
00:43:18Drive before he insists.
00:43:30We're manned on his way now, sir.
00:43:48I hope you're not feeling nervous.
00:43:50First night nerves never bothered me.
00:43:54Ship ahoy.
00:43:55Commander Gunner's on his way.
00:43:56Most of the time I sit in my room, I stare at the walls.
00:44:20There's nothing for me now but the pain.
00:44:24I understand.
00:44:26The pain.
00:44:28The suffering that you're going through.
00:44:31I'm not a weak woman, Commander, but it has me so I can't sleep at night.
00:44:38I'm sure I can help.
00:44:39I've had so many treatments, so many doctors, so many drugs.
00:44:46I just wish I could die in peace.
00:44:50Well, part of the problem is these modern painkillers.
00:44:53They leave you so that you can't think straight.
00:44:59I keep thinking of Sam, my old dog.
00:45:04We had him put down, you know.
00:45:07People are not animals.
00:45:26There are things that we can do.
00:45:30You mustn't think about dying.
00:45:31Tell me where the pain is, and I'll take it away.
00:45:37I wish someone would take mercy on me.
00:45:42You mustn't think like that, Elizabeth.
00:45:44I am a healer.
00:45:47Now, where is the pain?
00:45:51The pain is in my shoulders.
00:45:55How are the shoulders?
00:46:18Much better, actually.
00:46:19I do have a problem with them.
00:46:21His hands have done a power of good.
00:46:23Did I play my part well enough?
00:46:26I'm just sorry we don't give Oscars.
00:46:28Tonight it concerns me.
00:46:29What do I have to do?
00:46:31I shan't sleep tonight,
00:46:33and I've got the Trust's award ceremony in the morning.
00:46:36Trust us.
00:46:36We'll see you next time.
00:46:51I don't know.
00:47:21If you don't mind, I think I'll go to bed now.
00:47:43I shan't sleep, but I need to rest.
00:47:45Where will you be?
00:47:46Oh, we'll be here.
00:47:48Don't you sleep either, will you?
00:47:51I don't know.
00:47:56He's gone off with a prostitute, sir.
00:48:05No sign of him yet.
00:48:07Still on naval exercises.
00:48:09It's been over an hour now.
00:48:11Maybe she's been getting some spiritual guidance, eh?
00:48:14Horizontal healing.
00:48:15That's him now.
00:48:23Are you two going to sit here all night or what?
00:48:26Are you shy or something?
00:48:28Police.
00:48:29Move on, please.
00:48:31Piss off.
00:48:33Look, just move it, eh?
00:48:35Or we'll take you in.
00:48:37Pigs.
00:48:41Don't believe it.
00:48:45Don't believe it.
00:49:15Don't believe it.
00:49:20You poor thing.
00:50:10What are you doing?
00:50:35I was closing the window, sir. I saw she'd left it open.
00:50:37Somebody should open your brains.
00:50:40I saw she'd left it open.
00:51:10I saw she'd left it open.
00:51:40I'm having that.
00:52:03Well, I'm having this.
00:52:10Perhaps I didn't convince him.
00:52:14All the same, we're leaving a couple of detectives with you.
00:52:17Well, I've got the award ceremony at 11 o'clock,
00:52:20so they won't have too long to wait.
00:52:35Silly bitch.
00:52:40Do you want that?
00:52:43Yes.
00:52:44You can only have one thing.
00:52:45I want both.
00:52:46You can't. That's all you're allowed.
00:52:48Which do you want?
00:52:50This.
00:52:52Good morning, sir.
00:53:04Both of you.
00:53:05My office.
00:53:06Now.
00:53:20We do not use agent provocateur.
00:53:22This is not America.
00:53:24And what I find so disappointing is that you should choose willfully to conceal this operation from me.
00:53:32It was my idea, sir.
00:53:34Do you think your Sherlock Holmes and Interpol rolled into one?
00:53:37I'm busy.
00:53:38And what was Jim?
00:53:39It failed.
00:53:40You mean if it had succeeded, you would have approved?
00:53:41I would not.
00:53:42I'm sorry, sir.
00:53:43I thought you'd want to know.
00:53:44There's been another murder.
00:53:45Same pattern.
00:53:46A Mrs Campbell, sir.
00:53:47Her home help discovered her half an hour ago.
00:53:48I bet this is the most people that I've ever been to see her.
00:53:49Here's another one.
00:53:50I like being above people.
00:53:51Then I can lose her.
00:53:52I'm sorry, sir.
00:53:53I'm sorry, sir.
00:53:54I thought you'd want to know.
00:53:55There's been another murder.
00:53:56Same pattern.
00:53:57A Mrs Campbell, sir.
00:53:58Her home help discovered her half an hour ago.
00:53:59I bet this is the most people that I've ever been to see her.
00:54:13Here's another one.
00:54:15I like being above people.
00:54:17Then I can look down on the things that I make happen.
00:54:20We made this happen, not just you.
00:54:23You couldn't have done it without me.
00:54:26You needed me.
00:54:47See the old man's house and then Lena Henderson's?
00:54:52Yeah.
00:54:53Then there's Sophie's rest home in here.
00:54:56If you draw a line between them, it makes the shape of a P for Pauline.
00:55:02Well, if we had one over there, I could have the shape of an F for Fiona.
00:55:07We don't know anyone who stays over there.
00:55:09We know Dame Elizabeth.
00:55:11Hey, Michael.
00:55:12Have you seen any sign of a dog in this house?
00:55:24No.
00:55:25No.
00:55:26This woman's got dog food on her shopping list.
00:55:29Maybe she does the shopping for her neighbour.
00:55:32What's that?
00:55:34Postage prepaid stamp.
00:55:35No address?
00:55:36Just a contract number.
00:55:37First class.
00:55:38Probably a suss killer.
00:55:39Get somebody to check it out, eh?
00:55:41First class.
00:55:42Probably a suss killer.
00:55:44Get somebody to check it out, eh?
00:56:11It is a circular, sir.
00:56:12The serial number belongs to the Dame Elizabeth Friel Trust.
00:56:13A newsletter goes out to all their volunteers.
00:56:14Pauline and Fiona?
00:56:15That's right.
00:56:16Ach.
00:56:17They probably dropped it on one of their barber jobs or whatever they do.
00:56:34You think it could be, then?
00:56:36I don't know what to think.
00:56:39Certainly knew Lena and Sophie.
00:56:42God, they're children.
00:56:44So what?
00:56:45We're dealing with a multiple murderer.
00:56:48Yeah.
00:56:49And all the victims were elderly.
00:56:51The exact same group that these young girls were working with.
00:56:55They knew that Lena Henderson was alone in that house.
00:56:58They even told us that Sophie had asked them to help her commit suicide.
00:57:01Aye, but they wouldn't do it.
00:57:02Maybe not in the way she planned.
00:57:04No.
00:57:05No, Michael.
00:57:06Come on, sir.
00:57:07All right.
00:57:08We'll go and talk to them.
00:57:09Mr. Scott's missing medals and some souvenirs of other crimes.
00:57:10What's the matter?
00:57:11What's going on?
00:57:12What's the matter?
00:57:13What's going on?
00:57:14Where did Pauline get these?
00:57:15I've never seen them before.
00:57:16Is she in trouble?
00:57:17Mrs. Atkin, you'd better come with us.
00:57:18What's the matter?
00:57:19What's the matter?
00:57:20What's going on?
00:57:21Where did Pauline get these?
00:57:22I've never seen them before.
00:57:23Is she in trouble?
00:57:24Mrs. Atkin, you'd better come with us.
00:57:43Mrs. Atkin you'd better come with us.
00:57:47Where are Pauline and Fiona?
00:57:49I'd spent my whole life since the age of 17 touring and performing and running around
00:58:02worried, nervously looking for my next job.
00:58:06I realized retirement gives you a chance to do the things you've always wanted to do.
00:58:12Having been an actress all my life, I wanted to do something worthwhile.
00:58:40Bronze awards for Angela Burnett and Victor Morris.
00:58:45Where's Pauline?
00:58:46I don't know.
00:58:49Come on.
00:58:51Out.
00:58:55Where's Pauline?
00:58:56I don't know.
00:58:58Where is she?
00:59:00Now, we know you were involved in the murder of those old people.
00:59:05It would be better for you if you told the truth.
00:59:07Was it to steal things?
00:59:08No.
00:59:09Why do it?
00:59:12It was Pauline.
00:59:14She made me go with her.
00:59:16She killed them.
00:59:17I don't have anything to do with it.
00:59:23Pauline!
00:59:23She made me go with me.
00:59:32MUSIC PLAYS
00:59:56Don't believe her. She's lying.
00:59:58It was all Fiona's idea. She killed her.
01:00:01Pauline's got nothing to do with it.
01:00:03Tell me she hasn't.
01:00:31Please, I didn't kill anyone.
01:00:35Fiona did it, I'm telling you.
01:00:37She's violent.
01:00:38She's a monster.
01:00:40Oh, my God.
01:00:41Put her in the car.
01:00:42Fiona, come by from the edge.
01:00:46Please.
01:00:47Please.
01:00:48You've got to believe me.
01:00:49Pauline killed them.
01:00:50I wanted to stop her, but she said she'd killed me if I told anyone.
01:00:55I know that.
01:00:56You don't know.
01:00:57You don't know what she's like.
01:00:59I think we do know.
01:01:09Come down.
01:01:12I can't.
01:01:15I'm scared.
01:01:17Look at me.
