00:00Previously on The Bill
00:30Superintendent Caro wanted to be here today to reopen the station
00:39But because of yesterday's tragic events, he can't be with us
00:44Our thoughts are with him during this difficult time
00:47As they are with all those who lost their lives in the station fire
00:51This reopening is dedicated to their memory
00:54Thank you
00:56Gina
00:58The investigation into the crash that killed Alan's family
01:01It's been overseen by traffic
01:03I want to make sure it's handled properly
01:04So I've asked Terry to liaise with them on anything they need to know
01:07Have you spoken to Alan yet?
01:10Uh, I called his home but no answer
01:12Traffic assigned a family liaison officer
01:14Well, the collision team thought that under the circumstances
01:17You might want to take on that role
01:18I've cleared it with the investigating officer
01:20Me?
01:22Well, you know him better than anybody
01:24But how can I be somewhere later on?
01:28That's something more important than being there forever
01:29I just don't think I'm the right person for the job check
01:33Well, who else is he going to talk to?
01:37Okay
01:37Ramony, it's Terry
01:41I want to run something past you
01:42If we can meet up sometime this morning
01:44But not at the station, yeah?
01:47All right, call me
01:48Bye
01:48Do you see our Meadows?
01:50Yeah
01:50Do you see Graham Minton, investigating office and a collision investigation unit?
01:54Right
01:55Terry
01:55I'll go to my office
01:57Right
01:57Look, I know we're all shaken by yesterday's events
02:01But I want you to look at a new sex offender
02:03Who's just come into the public protection unit
02:05Okay
02:05I've only scanned the file quickly
02:07But I need you to monitor a Mike Harrison
02:09Just released from prison for indecently assaulting a teenage girl
02:12Has the victim been contacted?
02:14No, she was moved to Scotland
02:15It's not that I'm concerned about
02:17Harrison was also suspected of abusing his own daughter
02:19Kelly
02:20She was eight at the time
02:21Nice guy then
02:23Ramony's not in till later
02:24So any problems, give me a shout
02:25Got it
02:25All right
02:26So there's no eyewitness
02:27Nobody saw the collision tape place?
02:29No, and according to the collision investigator
02:32There are no skid marks on the road to indicate that either driver breaks suddenly
02:35There was a set of temporary lights at the accident
02:37But they've been checked and they're not faulty
02:39So what about the cars?
02:41Welcome check, no signs of mechanical failure
02:43So we're looking at human error?
02:45Seems like it
02:45And what about the other driver?
02:47Her name is Tamsin Parkaga
02:49She hit Mrs. O'Kara with side on, didn't she?
02:51Doesn't make her guilty
02:52According to the report, she was pretty hazy
02:53But she did say the lights were green
02:55Assuming she's feeling up to it
02:56We're asking him for a chat today
02:58Superintendent O'Kara has lost his wife and children in this incident
03:00We need to know what happened
03:02I know
03:04There's no CCTV footage of the scene, unfortunately
03:07The only camera was at the other end of Wells Avenue
03:09And it doesn't cover the junction
03:10Yeah, that doesn't help us much, does it?
03:11We also found Denise O'Kara's mobile phone went under her car seat
03:14It was broken
03:15But we haven't examined to check for any calls that may be made around that time
03:19It's possible she was using it in the car
03:22As I said to you on the phone, Mr. Harrison
03:26My name is DC Susie Sim from Sun Hill
03:29I'm from the Public Protection Unit
03:31And I'll be monitoring you over the next few months
03:33Liaising with you over work opportunities
03:35And generally discussing how things are going
03:37Spying, you mean?
03:41No
03:41I'll be paying regular visits to see how you're getting on
03:44That's all
03:44Lucky me
03:45You'll also need to see your probation officer
03:47Already got a date
03:48Anything work-wise?
03:50Oh, yeah
03:50They're falling over themselves to employ me
03:52What do you think?
03:53I've registered with a couple of agencies for kitchen pottering
03:56If that's okay with you
03:58As long as you stick to the terms of the sex offender order
04:01Do you understand what you have to do?
04:03Not go within 50 metres of a school
04:04Or have unsupervised contact with anybody under 16
04:07Think you have problems complying?
04:09No
04:09I've learned my lesson as far as lying
04:12Teenagers are concerned
04:13Nina Compton was only 15
04:17Going on 25
04:18She was no angel
04:19You indecently assaulted her
04:21And my eldest daughter, Jodie
04:22Who was Nina's best friend
04:23Said she was lying through her teeth
04:25You sound angry, Mr Harrison
04:27Nina's lies cost me three years of my life
04:30They brainwashed my wife Lynn into thinking
04:32I'd done something to Kelly
04:33I miss Kelly growing up
04:34I've got a no-contact order against me
04:36So I can't even see Kelly now
04:38Wouldn't you be angry?
04:39Kelly's form teacher said at the time
04:41She was withdrawn and behaving strangely at school
04:44Kelly was confused
04:45Wouldn't you be with all that was going on?
04:47Did she ever say that I touched her?
04:49Didn't your wife Lynn believe you did?
04:51They fiddled on a pack of lies
04:52I did nothing wrong
04:53And I am still Kelly's father
04:55All I want is my family back
04:59Are you saying you're going to try and see her?
05:02No
05:02I'm saying I want to
05:05Gina Gold
05:09Yeah, I've got a radiotherapy appointment at 11
05:12Do you think you could put it back a few hours?
05:1512.30 is the latest
05:19No, no, no
05:20Okay
05:21I'll be there
05:22Thank you
05:22Adam
05:31It's Gina
05:32I was dropping by your house to see if you're okay
05:35But you don't seem to be here
05:36Well, I hope you're all right
05:39And call me when you can
05:41Gina Gold
05:46Jack, hi
05:49We've just had some news
05:50We need to warn Adam
05:51Warn Adam about what?
05:54We had Denise's mobile phone examined
05:57We've just this minute heard back
05:59She was on a call moments before impact
06:03So it looks like it could be negligent driving on her part
06:06How's he coping?
06:08Well, I don't know
06:09He's not here
06:10Actually
06:11I've got an idea where he might be
06:13All right, I'll call you later
06:14Right
06:15You okay?
06:36What are you doing here?
06:37Oh, looking for you
06:38And I'm here as your FLO
06:41And friend
06:43I've been trying to call
06:44You'd never know, would you?
06:47It's that I lost everything here
06:48Why have you come here?
06:53I needed to know what happened
06:54The way I see it
06:55Denise and the children were coming along here
06:58The other driver must have shot out of that road there
07:01Flying straight into Denise
07:02Who wouldn't have had time to swerve and
07:04We've got some information
07:07And I think it's best you hear it from me
07:09Go on
07:12Well, Denise did come along there
07:14But we don't think it was her right of way
07:16Because when we examined her phone
07:18We think she was making a call
07:21When the incident happened
07:23I don't believe it
07:24You're saying the crash was Denise's fault
07:28That's what we think happened
07:30You're telling me my wife was responsible, aren't you?
07:33It's a possibility, Adam
07:35Adam, I know how impossibly hard this is for you
07:49I can't even begin to imagine
08:03No, you can't
08:04This is the number she called
08:10Did you recognise it?
08:12Is this why you're here?
08:14No
08:14I came to see that you were okay
08:17The Taylors
08:19Malcolm often goes there after school
08:22He used to go there after school
08:25You knew Denise
08:29Do you really think she'd be on a mobile phone
08:32And run through a red light with the kids in the back of the car?
08:36No, but we all make mistakes
08:38Not Denise
08:40The ones that will jeopardise the lives of our children
08:43You're wrong about this, Jim
08:46I need to get you home
08:50No
08:51There is nothing for you here
08:54Okay
08:56But you're wrong about this
08:58Denise didn't cause the crash
09:00I'm coming to the station with you
09:02I want to know what's going on
09:04You could help me, madam
09:09Oh, Neil
09:10You're well enough to play football later on
09:12You could help me clear up, couldn't you?
09:14Sorry, DC sir
09:16Oh, Susie, please
09:17I mean, you've got some homework to be doing
09:20Okay, okay
09:22I know why you're here
09:27I got a call about Mike's release
09:28How do you feel about it?
09:32How do you think?
09:33Has Mike been in contact with you since he went to prison?
09:36No, he's not coming near
09:37It's just the two of us now
09:38Just me and Kelly, no one else
09:40What about your older daughter?
09:42Jodie
09:42What about her?
09:45Do you see her?
09:46No
09:46She moved out before
09:48Just before Mike got arrested
09:50That was why
09:51He went round to Nina Compton's
09:53To see if she knew where Jodie was
09:55Right, and that's when the assault allegedly took place
09:58But Nina thought Jodie's reason for leaving home
10:01Was something to do with your husband
10:03Didn't she?
10:05Jodie denied that
10:06What do you think?
10:08Well, I know that a lot of questions were asked
10:12That was enough for me
10:13Nothing was proved
10:15But I could have lost Kelly
10:17That's why I agreed to them taking the no contact order out
10:20I love my kid
10:21Do you know where Jodie is?
10:25In Canley, somewhere
10:26I don't know
10:27I don't see her
10:28Lynn
10:28Can I ask you why?
10:31You seem like too doting a mother to cut all ties with your daughter
10:35My relationship with my daughter's got nothing to do with this
10:38I thought you were here to talk about Mike
10:40I am
10:41Of course
10:43I saw Mike earlier
10:45He's pretty adamant that he was falsely accused
10:48Well, there were so many accusations at the time
10:51Which one?
10:52Well, he claims Nina Compton lied
10:55And says that he never touched Kelly
10:57There were too many questions
11:01And I didn't want to risk Kelly being taken away from me
11:05I think that he's going to try and fight the restriction on seeing Kelly
11:09He can try, but he's not going to see her
11:11That's what the order's for
11:12Was Kelly physically examined?
11:15No, I didn't want her to be
11:16I thought she'd been through enough trauma
11:19With having her dad being taken away
11:22And her sister leaving home
11:23Did she admit anything to you?
11:24Why are you asking me all these questions?
11:27I didn't mean to upset you, Lynn
11:29But the more I know about Mike
11:32The better I can try to figure out what he might do
11:34It's just that
11:35I've been asked so many questions in the past
11:38Social services wanted to know about him
11:41Jodie
11:42How a marriage
11:43Everything
11:43I'd already lost Jodie when she moved out
11:46I didn't want to lose another
11:48That's why I agreed to the no contact order
11:51I'm sorry
11:52I understand
11:54I'm finished
11:59Oh, well done, sweetie
12:01Can we play pretty now?
12:02Yes, we can
12:03Look
12:03Here's my card
12:05If Mike tries to make contact
12:07He will let me know, won't you?
12:09Sure that he won't
12:10Please
12:10Just
12:11Let me know if you have any concerns
12:13See you, Kelly
12:15Bye
12:16Hi, Rich
12:21What do you reckon?
12:22It's good, isn't it?
12:24Well, I can't really see it like that
12:25I guess not
12:27Sorry
12:28That was a bit insensitive
12:30No, you're all right
12:32Excuse me
12:34Tamsin Parker
12:36I'm here to see
12:37P.C. Minton
12:38From the Collision Investigation Unit
12:40I'll let him know you're here
12:42Thank you
12:43Hello
12:51I'm DCI Meadows
12:53Take a seat
12:54Thank you for coming in
12:56We don't have to do this today
12:57If you don't feel up to it
12:58No
12:59I want to help
13:00So how are you feeling?
13:02Okay
13:02The hospital let me go home last night
13:04I've had a few cuts and bruises
13:06Nothing serious
13:07I was very lucky
13:08Do you
13:10Do you know who the others were?
13:13Yes, we do
13:14It was a woman and two children, wasn't it?
13:23How's the husband?
13:23Well, he needs support
13:27But we're doing everything we can for him
13:29Adam, Adam, are you sure this is a good idea?
13:37As good as any
13:38I went to pick up my daughter Evie from Brownies
13:49Which direction are you travelling from?
13:51Darrow Road
13:51There were roadworks and temporary traffic lights
13:55What colour were the lights?
13:59Green
13:59Are you sure?
14:02Yes
14:02And then what happened?
14:10Take your time
14:11That's just it
14:15I'm so sorry
14:18It's alright
14:19I thought this would help
14:21Help what?
14:23Help me remember
14:24I can't remember what happened
14:26Look, I think we should reschedule this for a couple of days, okay?
14:31We'll call you
14:32I need to know
14:33Does this mean it was my fault?
14:36Did I kill those people?
14:38Well, that's what we're trying to find out
14:39Do you get the impression that Lynn Harrison believes the abuse allegations?
14:45I'm not sure
14:46I don't believe she knows what to think
14:48There's an older daughter, Jodie
14:50I want to trace her
14:51She left home just before her father was accused of the assault
14:53But didn't the police speak to her at the time?
14:55Yes
14:55She backed her father up about the abuse
14:57Completely denied it
14:58But for some reason, Lynn Harrison has no contact with her anymore
15:01She wouldn't say why
15:03I think there might be some answers in there about Mike
15:05Do we need to involve her?
15:07Yes
15:08I'm going to monitor Mike Harrison
15:09I could do with knowing everything about him
15:11Kelly's safe with her mum
15:13But I need to know what kind of stance he's likely to pull
15:15Are you dealing with, um, Mike Harrison?
15:17Yes, why?
15:18Cardiff just had a call of disturbance at a kid's football match
15:20One of the parents rang in saying they recognised Mike Harrison
15:24They leave a name?
15:25Yep
15:25And a phone number
15:26She says she knew him from years gone by
15:28Apparently it's all kicked off
15:29I think, not the football
15:31I know
15:32I've got it
15:34Lynne
15:47I got here as quickly as I could
15:51Where's Mike?
15:52What?
15:53One of the parents rang in to say they saw Mike here
15:55You've kicked it
15:56I haven't seen him
15:57I would have rung you
15:58Who said they saw him?
15:59I can't give you a name
16:00But they said he was here
16:01They saw him watching
16:02Well, they must have got it wrong
16:05I, uh, I would have told you if Mike had been here
16:08Are you sure?
16:09I mean, how would he even know that Kelly was playing here?
16:12What are you saying?
16:13I've got an order against him
16:15He's not allowed anywhere near us
16:16And I didn't see him
16:18The parent also said Kelly was upset
16:20She certainly looks it
16:22Yes, she wrote a leg
16:23I tell you girls are dirtier than boys when it comes to tackling
16:26Lynne, did he threaten you?
16:28Because if he did, I can
16:29How many times I didn't see him?
16:31If Mike had been here, I'd tell you
16:33What?
16:33Why would I deny that?
16:36I don't know
16:37Kelly's leg looks fine to me
16:41Well, it's not
16:43Now, excuse me
16:44I've got to check on my daughter
16:45Alan
16:53Didn't expect to see you here
16:56Why?
16:57I'm the superintendent here
16:58The death of my family is the subject of an investigation
17:00Were there any witnesses to the crash?
17:04I'm afraid not
17:05What about the other driver?
17:06They say anything?
17:08Well, they're in the process of being interviewed
17:09But nothing yet
17:10Okay, tell me what you do know
17:11Well, traffic had been over to the Taylors' house
17:15They talked to Helen Taylor about the phone call
17:17Apparently, your son left his school bag in the house
17:21So that's what the call was about
17:23Helen only talked to Malcolm, though
17:25She didn't talk to Denise
17:26So the call had nothing to do with the collision?
17:28It would seem not
17:29Good
17:30I told you Denise would never use the phone in the car
17:33So was Malcolm on the phone when it happened?
17:36Did Helen hear the crash?
17:38Well, it must have been just before
17:39The timing must have been a few seconds out
17:41Helen was the last person to speak to him alive
17:44Did she say what they were talking about?
17:48Not really
17:49Not really?
17:51I have every right to know
17:52Well, uh
17:55She said she heard Denise and Leah laughing and chatting in the background
18:07I'm so sorry
18:08Who's the investigating officer?
18:16Graham Minton
18:16Good
18:17I know him
18:18Right, we've established Denise wasn't on the phone
18:20What's next?
18:24Right, for you
18:25Okay
18:26So to what do I owe the pleasure, Helen?
18:30Please
18:30I wanted to talk to you before you came back to work today
18:33I wonder if you knew anything about them
18:35Antidepressants, where would I?
18:38Because they're my address to you
18:40Roger found them in your post
18:42Goodness sake
18:44Well, I'm sorry
18:45I was worried about you
18:46I know how difficult things have been lately
18:47Well, even if they were mine
18:49I wouldn't be stupid enough to order them at work
18:50They were someone, didn't they?
18:52Well, it was Margaret
18:53Obviously
18:54I'm surprised
18:56Terry, she's angry with me for trying to pull away from her
18:59She's trying to hurt me
19:00It's definitely Margaret
19:02We just need to find proof
19:03Okay
19:04Find out who would have established
19:06You know, I've been watching her while I've been away
19:08Do you think that's wise?
19:10Well, I've got to do something
19:11Everybody thinks I'm incapable of doing my job
19:13Including you, it seems
19:15Now listen
19:15You leave Margaret to me
19:17If she's behind this, I'll find proof
19:19But you stay away from her
19:21Because you'll just make it worse
19:22Are you stalking me?
19:34Like a bad penny
19:35Been out?
19:36No
19:36I heard different
19:37You heard wrong
19:38Hope so
19:39Because going to a young girls football match
19:41In which your daughter was playing
19:42Would be really stupid, wouldn't it?
19:44I guess so
19:44Do that and you'll be sent straight back to prison
19:47That's what I wouldn't do
19:48When you were in prison
19:50Were you in contact with Lynn?
19:51No
19:52Have you been in contact with her since you've come out?
19:54No
19:54She doesn't want anything to do with me
19:56How would you know if you haven't been in contact?
19:58I'm assuming nothing's changed
19:59I really think you should go home
20:06Are you trying to get rid of me?
20:07No
20:07They seem into them
20:09Lieutenant
20:11Who's that?
20:17It's a witness
20:17She's got a cut above her eye
20:19That's Tamsyn Parker
20:21She was driving the other car
20:22Um
20:23We should let you get on
20:24She killed my wife
20:26She was driving the other car
20:27She sadly got a scratch on her
20:30What does she say happened?
20:31She can't remember
20:32My family are dead
20:36And she can't remember anything
20:38It's very soon after the incident
20:40She's...
20:40All right, thank you
20:41Please see me
20:41Thank you
20:42We're protecting the wrong person
20:45We're not protecting anybody
20:47They're not remembering anything
20:53She must be responsible
20:54We do know that
20:55You don't seem to know anything, Jack
20:56Perhaps you're not asking the right questions
20:58I assure you we are
20:59And I can assure you
21:00Not knowing what happened to my wife and children
21:01I'll tell you something
21:05If you're not going to find out what happened to them
21:07I will
21:08Couldn't you get him at home?
21:36I didn't find him at home
21:37I found him at the collision site
21:39What was he doing?
21:40Well, trying to figure out what happened
21:42Did he say anything?
21:44I mean, has he talked about how he's coping?
21:45Anything but
21:46He's blocking it
21:48Focusing on the investigation
21:49What are we going to do?
21:50Well, it's not going to help him be here, is it?
21:52We've got to try and get him home
21:53I've had a thought
21:53Will you help me do something?
21:56If we can, yeah
21:56Bring the other driver in
21:57I want to watch her being interviewed
21:59I know Denise is driving
22:01I've been to the scene
22:02I can tell if she's lying
22:03Well, it's not a matter of whether she's lying
22:05It's whether she remembers or not
22:06I don't believe that
22:07Look
22:08This is about your loved ones losing their lives
22:11And no one should hear that
22:12This is not about a car crash, Adam
22:14I just want to help the investigation
22:15Just leave it to us, Adam
22:16We'll get to the bottom of it
22:18But for now
22:20You should go home
22:21And do what?
22:24No one's there
22:25And Denise's family
22:26You need their support
22:28And they need yours
22:29I can't face them
22:31But being here is not doing you any good
22:34Okay
22:38Get after him
22:42Okay
22:45I'm going to sit here
22:47Back to the wall face and the door
22:48What's that about?
22:50Feng shui?
22:51No, it's what the gunslingers did
22:52So they could see who was walking in
22:54Oh yeah, look
22:56I've got something next to you
22:57If I sit here
23:02I can look at you
23:02Sorry to interrupt
23:05But Tony I just tended a burglary den
23:07At St Hugh's Pharmacy
23:08Drugs taken with the street value
23:10Sleeping tablets, painkillers, morphine
23:12Well, let's see if there are similar burglars
23:13In other hospitals
23:14Yeah, sure
23:15We've got a pile of CCTV to wade through
23:17Oh yeah, another problem
23:18Is the burglar made his exit through an adjoined laboratory
23:21And knocked over a lab player samples on his way out
23:23What does that mean?
23:24It means we're looking for an IC1 male, medium height
23:27With a possible case of typhoid
23:28Excuse me
23:43Hi
23:44I'm looking for Jodie Harris
23:46Who are you?
23:47DC Sim, Sunhill
23:48Are you Jodie?
23:52I was wondering if I could have a word with you
23:54What about?
23:55Your father
23:56Can I come in?
24:00Did my mother give you my address?
24:12No
24:13I got it from the electoral roll
24:15Your mother says she doesn't know where you are
24:19I sent loads of letters to Kelly
24:21Mum knows if she wants to
24:23So what's my father done now?
24:27He's just been released from prison
24:29Makes no difference to me
24:30I have no contact with my parents
24:32Right
24:34So he hasn't tried to contact you yet?
24:37No
24:38And I wouldn't see him if he did
24:40Jodie, why did you leave home?
24:44It's none of your business
24:45Guess not
24:46Look
24:47I just wanted to get away
24:49It's no big deal
24:50Lots of kids leave home
24:51Nothing more specific than that?
24:54No
24:54I'm sorry to ask Jodie
24:58But
24:58Did your father abuse you in any way?
25:03No, he didn't
25:04Did you know he was accused of abusing Kelly?
25:09When?
25:10Just after he was charged with indecently assaulting your friend Nina
25:13Nothing was proven but
25:15I believe he wants to see Kelly now
25:18I'm sorry, I can't help
25:19It's nothing to do with me
25:20If you don't know what he needs to do
25:22Jodie
25:22Just take this
25:26What for?
25:29In case you want to talk
25:30About anything
25:32It might help your little sister
25:40Tony
25:49How serious is this typhoid?
25:51Well, when we spoke to the lab assistant
25:52He says it causes fever, vomiting, diarrhoea
25:55Especially dangerous in the young and the old
25:57And it's highly contagious
25:58Right, we've checked all known burglars who live close to the hospital
26:02And fit the description
26:02And?
26:03There's nothing
26:04So what have you guys got?
26:07Well
26:08There's this
26:09Now this guy fits the description
26:12He's hanging about outside pharmacy department
26:15And look
26:15He's got something under his shirt
26:17If we
26:18Push it on a bit
26:20There he is again
26:23Now look
26:24He's definitely got something under, hasn't he?
26:27That could be anything
26:28Could have been at the cafe
26:29Why would he hide a sandwich under his jacket?
26:32Well, that's what we thought
26:34What's odd is that he didn't leave the hospital
26:35We've checked all of the tapes
26:37Every hospital exit's been covered
26:39Now, he doesn't leave any of them
26:41But
26:42Steve
26:43We do pick him up a few minutes later
26:47Now, if this is our man
26:50He's heading into the A&E department
26:52Thank you, Phil
26:55Yeah
26:57What's that for?
26:59What do you think it's for?
27:00I don't know
27:01Fancy dress?
27:02Very funny
27:03You're telling me
27:04You look ridiculous
27:04Look, I don't know about you
27:06But I don't want to catch a dose of typhrine
27:07Oh, you're not serious
27:09I get paid to catch criminals, alright
27:10Not infectious diseases
27:11But this isn't the plague, Phil
27:13And really, it's not that contagious
27:15The only people at risk
27:16Are the very old and the very young
27:18Or in your case
27:19The very hypochondriac
27:20It's better to be safe than sorry
27:22Well, I'm not wearing one
27:23Oh, that's charming
27:24Listen, you are worrying too much
27:26Our guy probably hasn't caught anything
27:28And even if he has
27:29Just don't get too close
27:31What if we have to arrest him?
27:33Well, then I'll do it
27:33And what if you catch it?
27:35Well, then I'll make sure
27:36I don't get too close to you
27:38Do you want me to come in with you?
27:44I don't like to think of you
27:45In there on your own
27:45Don't you have better things to do?
27:48No, I don't
27:50I'll be fine on my own
27:54Forget it
27:58I'm coming in
28:00And you can make the tea
28:02You will let me know
28:03If you find out anything
28:04Yes
28:05You don't seem certain, Gemma
28:10I need to know
28:11I understand that
28:13And I will let you know
28:14But also, you need to let go of the investigation
28:16And do what?
28:17Because you need to
28:18You've got to try and find a way to let yourself grieve
28:35Come on
28:37Were you flirting with DS Nixon earlier?
28:46No
28:47You've got no chance with her
28:48It'll never work
28:49Shut up
28:50Right, our suspect's in there
28:53Well, let's go and get him then
28:54No, not yet
28:55Well, why not?
28:56Well, that's why
28:57Maternity's full
28:58So she's giving birth down here
29:00Now, I've asked the nurse to bring our man out
29:02And I've warned her about the infection, all right?
29:04Last chance you want a mask?
29:05No, I'm fine, thank you
29:07Whoa, DS Nixon, Sunhill
29:10And you are...
29:10Mr Simmons
29:11What's going on?
29:12Mr Simmons, I'd like to ask you some questions
29:14About a theft from the hospital pharmacy
29:16You what?
29:16My wife's having a baby in there
29:18Well, no, I appreciate that
29:19But this is very urgent
29:20So's this
29:20Whoever broke into the pharmacy
29:22Tried to leave by the lab
29:24And accidentally knocked over some research samples
29:26So?
29:27Well, this person could be carrying the typhoid bacteria
29:30It's highly contagious
29:31You're having me on, right?
29:32No, we're not
29:33It could be a big risk to anyone you touch
29:35Especially a pregnant woman
29:36And newborn babies
29:37Right, so if you committed that theft early
29:41You shouldn't go back in there
29:42But I have to be there
29:44Is that an admission?
29:45No
29:45Well, it's your call, Mr Simmons
29:46Actually, you might be interested in some CCTV we have
29:50Looks uncannily like you
29:52Drew!
29:58Drew!
30:01I got the impression earlier you needed to be somewhere
30:05Oh, don't worry
30:07It's nothing that can't wait
30:08I've made too many mistakes
30:11I should have been here more
30:17I should have spent more time
30:19I should have been here yesterday
30:22Don't say that
30:22You gave your family everything you could
30:24You made them very happy
30:26Please
30:27No, I mean it
30:28Denise is a wonderful woman and a great mother
30:31You, of all people, don't have to say that
30:33Yes, I do
30:34You were with her at the scene yesterday, weren't you?
30:41What did she say?
30:44She was very calm and in control
30:47I never felt I really deserved it, you know
30:51How do you mean?
30:54She was brave, honest
30:56I couldn't even be that for her at the hospital
30:59That's not true, you were very brave
31:01But I didn't tell her, did I?
31:03About the children
31:04She would have wanted to know it
31:05I just couldn't face it
31:07And what good would it have done if you had told her?
31:10Oh, you don't understand
31:11We had trust, honesty
31:13But when it mattered, I came up short
31:15I was always short of the mark
31:18Now listen to me
31:18You have to hang on to the positives
31:22That's all we can do
31:23You know, none of us know what's coming around the corner
31:24You don't know what it's like to go through something like this
31:26I've never said that
31:28I need to be alone now
31:29Oh, Adam
31:30Please
31:31Just go
31:33Just go
32:03Um, I called earlier
32:06It's Gina Gold
32:07I'm due for a radiotherapy treatment
32:11At 12.30
32:13But
32:13I could be there in ten minutes
32:16Oh, good, right
32:20Thank you very much, bye
32:21You all right?
32:28Yeah
32:28Well, is everything okay?
32:30Everything's fine
32:31You have got the most gorgeous little baby girl
32:33I want to see her
32:34Steve
32:35She's got these tiny little fingers
32:36And these beautiful big blue eyes
32:38Congratulations
32:39Can't I see her?
32:40Well, no, you can't
32:40Because you're under arrest
32:41And also we need to get you checked out
32:42All right
32:42Steve
32:42Now, it turns out that you got form for theft and burglary
32:53But I suppose that wasn't you either
32:54What was it, a long labour?
32:57You see, most expectant fathers go out to buy flowers
32:59Not squeezing a quick robbery between contractions
33:02I said I didn't want to see you
33:06What are you doing here?
33:07Come in, son
33:08No
33:08No, what are you doing here?
33:12I just need to talk
33:13Everything all right?
33:15Jodie called me
33:16She asked me to come over
33:17What did you do?
33:18Like I said on the phone
33:19I don't want to see you
33:20Why are you here, Lynn?
33:23I decided I'd like to see my daughter
33:25Is that such a crime?
33:26I don't care
33:27What are you doing here?
33:28Jodie
33:29No, just leave me alone
33:31Lynn
33:33Get lost
33:47Jodie
33:47Jodie
33:47Jodie, are you all right?
33:53What's the matter?
33:55Why did your mother come?
33:59What did she want from you?
34:03I can't say
34:17The FME's seen Simmons
34:18You can relax
34:19Turns out he wasn't infected after all
34:21Sure
34:21That's a saying
34:22Still not a good day for him otherwise
34:24What do you mean?
34:25I'm getting nicked
34:26Today your baby's born
34:27It's not exactly ideal, is it?
34:28Well, that's his lookout, isn't it?
34:29He used the fact that she was in labour to commit a crime
34:31It's not one of her grandchildren, is it?
34:33Were you there for the birth?
34:34Yeah, I was, till I got nicked
34:35Grandchildren?
34:36Get a little soppy on me
34:37Yeah, just saying
34:38Maybe you are ill
34:47Jodie
34:52Was that the first time you've seen your mother since you've left home?
35:09Do you know why she would come all of a sudden?
35:12Was it because of your father being released?
35:15No
35:15It's because of you
35:18She came to warn me not to speak to you
35:23Why?
35:28In case I told you what happened
35:30To you?
35:39Jodie, were you abused?
35:41I can't do this
35:42Yes, you can
35:43No
35:43Why are you doing this to me?
35:48Doing what?
35:50Digging it all up
35:51Jodie, I want to help you
35:53He can't hurt you now
35:55This isn't about him
35:56You don't get it, do you?
36:00Did mum tell you it was all his fault?
36:03Did she say she'd do anything to protect Kelly?
36:05Yes
36:06It's all lies
36:09This isn't just about him
36:12It's about both of them
36:15She's part of it
36:18She let my father arrange for those men to come round
36:21How old were you when the abuse started?
36:41Nine
36:41I just remember the pain
36:46Shh
36:47It's okay
36:48I had to go to school and pretend the pain wasn't there
36:52I thought it was happening because I'd done something wrong
36:56You hadn't
36:57It wasn't your fault
36:59Then why did they treat me like that?
37:02I don't know
37:03Jodie, what did your parents do to you?
37:06They didn't do anything
37:09They never touched me
37:12I don't understand
37:15They let other people do that
37:17How?
37:24They let other men have sex with me
37:26Dad organised it
37:31Mum let it happen
37:33Why?
37:36They're supposed to look after me
37:39How long did this go on for?
37:44Till I left
37:45Seven years
37:47Every Wednesday
37:48Why Wednesday?
37:52Pub night
37:53I'd lie in bed waiting and waiting
37:57And then I'd hear them come home
38:01Them?
38:04Dad and one of his mates
38:05Sometimes more
38:07He'd bring them up
38:11They stank of drink
38:14Jodie
38:15Where was your mother?
38:18Downstairs
38:18She'd turn the volume up on the TV as soon as they came upstairs
38:22To block the noise out
38:25When they left she'd turn it down again
38:29Like nothing happened
38:32Why didn't you do anything to stop them?
38:35It's got this power over her
38:37If you're relying on her to protect Kelly, forget it
38:40That's why mum came today
38:42To warn me not to let you lot know
38:44So Kelly would get it if I did
38:50Listen to me
38:50You need to make a statement
38:52Help me stop this from happening again
38:55It's my fault isn't it
38:56I ran away
38:58I didn't stay to help Kelly
39:01No
39:01It wasn't your fault
39:03You were frightened
39:04It's understandable
39:05I knew what they were capable of
39:07What they might do to her
39:09I left her
39:11I left her
39:13I left her
39:14Jodie
39:15Now's your chance to help her
39:18Alright?
39:20Yeah
39:20Maybe
39:21Maybe
39:22Look, I just need some time to think
39:25Alone
39:26Okay?
39:29Okay
39:29Okay
39:29Hi
39:46It's Denise
39:47We're not here at the moment
39:49Believe us a message
39:50And we'll get back to you
39:51Adam
39:53It's Jack
39:55Just wanted to check you were okay
39:57I'll try again later
39:59Hi
40:03It's Denise
40:04We're not here at the moment
40:05Believe us a message
40:06And we'll get back to you
40:08Hi
40:10It's Denise
40:10We're not here at the moment
40:12Believe us a message
40:13And we'll get back to you
40:14Hi
40:17It's Denise
40:18We're not here at the moment
40:19Believe us a message
40:20And we'll get back to you
40:29Do you need a hand?
40:34I think I'm okay, thanks.
40:37I owe you an apology.
40:38What for?
40:39I was short with you earlier.
40:40Oh, don't worry about it.
40:41If I've been through...
40:42No, come on.
40:42I shouldn't let the memory of Marilyn
40:44affect the way I treat people.
40:46There's no excuse,
40:47and she wouldn't have wanted that.
40:48She was always so friendly, wasn't she?
40:50It's fine, really.
40:52Those forms,
40:53I think Marilyn would have put them over her.
40:54What's up, sir?
41:02171 from Pierre Oscar.
41:03Can you deal?
41:05Labour is concerned about the welfare of residents
41:07at 10 Broome Lane.
41:08Yeah, I'm right, yes, yeah.
41:24You okay?
41:46Yeah.
41:47Right, well, the first thing we need to do
41:48is get a statement from Jodie.
41:49Details of the abuse,
41:50names of who was involved.
41:51This needs to be passed on
41:52to the Child Protection Team.
41:54We need to concentrate on Kelly.
41:56You sure that Jodie's telling the truth?
41:58Yes!
41:59I think she's a really sweet girl
42:01trying really, really hard
42:03to deal with what happened.
42:04Gov, she was repeatedly raped
42:05over a seven-year period.
42:07Mike and Lynn are going to deny
42:08that anything happened.
42:09It's going to be their word
42:10against their wayward daughters.
42:11We can't prove that Lynn
