00:00Previously on The Bill
00:04She's making everybody believe that I'm on Steve
00:06I'm due for a radiotherapy treatment at 12.30
00:09Were you flirting with D.S. Nixon earlier?
00:11You've got no chance of that
00:12It'll never work
00:13Shut up
00:14D.I. Cronin
00:15Remind a caster I'm arresting you for harassment
00:30Okay
00:37Let me get this clear
00:39So you're saying you have no idea why Mrs. Barnes is accusing you of harassment?
00:44None
00:44As I said to you before, it's the other way around
00:47Well, she claims you tried to get her fired from her cleaning job
00:49I merely requested that she work somewhere other than on my floor
00:53She also alleges that later that same day you deliberately pushed her down the stairs
00:56No, it wasn't deliberate and she told my superintendent it was an accident
00:58No, she's claiming she was pressurized into saying that
01:00Now she's saying that you attacked her
01:02She's lying
01:03Have you ever been to her flat?
01:15Why?
01:16Well, Mrs. Barnes claims that you have
01:17That she's seen you lurking around outside
01:20Look, that's rubbish
01:23Is it?
01:24And how do you explain these?
01:43They're photos of you outside Mrs. Barnes' flat
01:45Yes, yes
01:45I know what they are
01:47I know
01:47And they were taken just before someone vandalized her car
01:50This is absolutely ridiculous
01:52I did not vandalize her car
01:54Are you sure?
01:59Dear Croning, have you understood a word I've said?
02:04Margaret Barnes
02:05Has been harassing me
02:08She's been stalking me
02:10Look, I'm just trying to make sense of this
02:13Really, I am
02:14But considering all the evidence
02:16It looks very much like you've been harassing her
02:18A copper nick for Harrison a cleaner
02:24Dove, Ramney isn't a stalker
02:25It's the other way around
02:26This has been brewing since Margaret got here
02:28She's obsessed
02:29So how did Ramney let it get to this?
02:30I don't know
02:31I told her to take it to the super
02:32Why didn't she?
02:33She didn't think anyone would believe her
02:35Look
02:35She's still here
02:36Well, they obviously can't work in the same building together
02:40Leave you with me
02:40I'll get it sorted
02:41Have you ever been stalked, dear Croning?
02:48No
02:48But I have to ask you these questions
02:51You know that
02:52I don't really expect you to understand
02:56But I went round there because
02:58I felt intimidated
03:01I thought if I knew where she was
03:05Then I'd feel safer
03:06And did you?
03:08No
03:08How did you feel?
03:11How frustrated
03:13Oh, because you were angry with her?
03:16No
03:16No, because I felt trapped
03:19I mean, I didn't damage her car
03:24Why would I?
03:25And why is she so convinced that you did?
03:26She isn't
03:27She's making it up
03:28She did it herself to make it look like me
03:30This woman is trying to humiliate me
03:33She's trying to make me suffer
03:35Right, Operation Mercury
03:41Where are we?
03:42Uniform and community support have been patrolling the coal lane
03:45We've been targeting dealers using juveniles to deliver the drugs
03:48Any joy?
03:49Well, we carried out a series of raids, Gov
03:50And it turns out that there was the faintest trace of cocaine in a sports bag that we recovered from one of the kids
03:54Oh, we know these kids are shifting cocaine
03:56But how does that identify the supplier?
03:58Well, when forensics put our bag under the UV light to check for marks
04:01Writing suddenly appeared on the inside in big capitals
04:04Bernard Cryan, Class 7B
04:06Cryan's file
04:07Convicted for cocaine dealing on the coal lane estate out last year
04:10Now, we're thinking he's back on the scene, playing it careful, using young couriers
04:14It's not very careful, is it, giving somebody coke in an old school bag?
04:16Well, his name was written in magic marker, Pengov
04:18He wouldn't have known it was there
04:19Well, we can't charge him with that alone
04:21No, but it's enough to arrest him, search premises, see what else he's got stashed away
04:24No, all we need's an address
04:26Is that Karen?
04:27No, it's his mum's and she's washed her hands of him
04:29But we're working on it, Gov
04:31We'll find him
04:31Right
04:32Well, I'll leave you to it
04:33Ambulance to the playground near Melling Road, Coal Lane Estate
04:41Received
04:42I'm going to ask around on the street, see if anyone saw the attacker
04:47Get his details, yeah?
04:48Yeah, yeah, go on
05:18Cool, cool, man
05:22I just want to ask you something
05:23The man's been attacked back there
05:25We didn't see nothing, but
05:28White guy, 20s, we didn't see
05:30You're going to let me out now, yeah?
05:40Right, it's okay
05:41There, that's right
05:45See ya, let's go
05:47Dad, there's been another mugging on the Coal Lane
06:01Probably drug-related
06:03Yeah, listen, mate, might be nothing, but you might not do a vehicle check
06:07Bramley
06:09Come in
06:10Let's see
06:11Right, I hear you've been bailed in that charge
06:15Pending further investigation, yes
06:18Well, I suggest you get yourself a Fed rep
06:21Well, I've already got legal representation, sir
06:24Well, that doesn't matter
06:24You've paid for the privilege
06:26Take advantage, Romany
06:28These Fed reps are our people
06:30They know about police procedure
06:32They know what it's like to be a copper facing criminal allegations
06:35Guilty till proved innocent, eh?
06:38Yeah, I've discovered that
06:39I wouldn't be suggesting this if I didn't think you needed help
06:42Gov, if I am charged, I will be suspended, won't I?
06:51Well, let's hope it doesn't come to that
06:53But you know that there's nothing in it, don't you?
06:56Yeah, of course, yes
06:57I just wish you'd come to me sooner to tell me what was going on
07:01The delivery boy who was given the bag has confirmed it came from Bernard Cryan
07:08No, I don't suppose we'll say so in court, though
07:09No, and he went quiet when asked where Cryan was dossing
07:12But he did let slip that Cryan has a girlfriend, Chanel
07:14Let's get uniforms sniffing around after her
07:16Hang on
07:17Chanel Middlemiss, 16 Haygarth Court
07:21Registered owner of a car that Lance asked me to put a check on
07:24What for?
07:25Well, a couple of guys in it acting dodgy on the coal lane
07:27But there can't be that many Chanel's about, can there?
07:29Could be Cryan's Bird
07:30Call Lance, get a description of the driver, I'll check out the girl
07:33Right
07:33Hey, how are you?
07:36Fine
07:36Ramony
07:38Hey
07:38Ramony, wait
07:39What happened at Barnstreet?
07:45I was bailed overnight and called him for questioning this morning
07:47Treated me like a criminal
07:50Didn't you tell them what Margaret's been up to?
07:54I mean, she's the one they should be questioning
07:55Where is the evidence, though, Tay?
07:58There's pointing the other way
07:59Margaret set this whole thing up and she's done a good job of it, you know
08:03I mean, she's even taken photographs of me outside her flat
08:06If I was him, I'd probably think the same thing
08:10No
08:10Oh, come here
08:13Come here
08:13No
08:13No
08:14Shh, shh, shh, shh
08:16Come on
08:16We'll sort this out
08:19I promise you
08:21Hold on
08:32Mike Headley
08:33Serious coke addict
08:35That's the kid I talked to in the car earlier
08:37Looks like it's just done a deal
08:38What, the one who gave you a lip?
08:40What, do you know him?
08:42Yeah, I'm a mate of his mum's neck
08:44His name's Jordan Tomlin, but he's a decent kid
08:46I'm going to search him
08:48But we didn't see anything
08:50It looked suspicious from what I saw in the car
08:52That's plenty
08:53Wait there, yeah
09:03Jordan, can I have a word?
09:04What?
09:05How do you think of his name?
09:06Oh
09:07It's...
09:08It's...
09:08Stay there, I said stay
09:29Hands off me
09:30Don't struggle then
09:31Laura, are you okay?
09:32Yes, yeah, I'm fine
09:34Okay
09:34I'm PC pal, Sunil
09:36You know PCS O'Brien
09:37What I've seen today
09:39I've reason to believe you're in possession of controlled drugs
09:41I ain't got no drugs
09:42I intend to detain you to search you
09:45You can't search me
09:46This is harassment
09:48You're entitled to a record of the search
09:49Get hands off, man
09:52What, you want to steal my mula now?
10:03Oh, Jordan, shut up
10:04Let him do his job
10:05A lot of Queen's heads for a kid
10:07Man
10:07What's this?
10:10For personal consumption
10:11Can't do me for that
10:13Really?
10:14Yeah
10:15I'm arresting you for possession of controlled drugs and assault
10:18You do not have to say...
10:19Assault?
10:19You're arresting me for assault?
10:20Lars, what are you doing?
10:22Call for a car
10:23But it may harm your defense if you do not mention when questioned something which you later...
10:26It was an accident
10:27She got in my way
10:28Anything you do say, it may be given an evidence
10:30I can't help you unless you talk to me
10:42Tell me what's going on
10:49I feel humiliated, Terry
10:54Being arrested in front of all my colleagues and friends
11:04Everything I seem to say made it worse and I sounded guilty at the interview
11:12Well, you're not
11:13And once Barton Street finished their investigation...
11:16Well, the DCI seemed to believe me
11:18I don't know
11:20I mean, everything that I've built up over the years
11:29I just can't lose my job
11:36You won't
11:36I'll sort it out for you
11:38That's what you said before I got arrested yesterday
11:40I mean, I've handled this all wrong
11:44I thought I could get through to Margaret
11:46But I was clearly very stupid
11:48Don't blame yourself
11:49You did everything you could
11:50No, no, no
11:51No, I haven't
11:52I haven't
11:53I've just let this escalate
11:54And escalate
11:55Look at the state of me now
11:57I should have gone to the superintendent
11:58And I should never ever let it get to this
11:59If you stay calm
12:02What calm?
12:04That's the last thing I feel
12:06Is calm
12:07I feel scared
12:11Terry, I feel scared
12:14Of Margaret
12:15Because I don't know what she's going to do next
12:17Smash up, man
12:36I ain't done nothing wrong
12:37I wouldn't call assaulting a woman nothing, would you?
12:40No, especially when it's a colleague
12:41Come on, in your get
12:42Lance
12:43It's my fault
12:45I shouldn't have got in the way
12:46That's not the point
12:47He struck you down
12:48Yeah, but I surprised him
12:49He couldn't stop
12:50Don't do him for assault
12:51I'm not bothered
12:52It doesn't matter whether you are
12:53He struck a community support officer
12:55I have to act on that
12:56Oi!
12:58Here we go
12:59Hold on
12:59Okay, madam
13:01Keep away
13:01Get your hands off me
13:03That's my son
13:04Come away
13:04It's all right
13:05She's a mate of mine
13:06Just get control yourself
13:07Or you'll be joining him
13:08Jordan's been arrested for possession and assault
13:10What? Jordan?
13:12He ran away from me and my colleague and he knocked me over
13:14Well, what would he run away from you for?
13:16We wanted to search him because we'd reason to suspect he was in possession of drugs
13:20No! Jordan's not a criminal, you know him
13:23Annette, we found cannabis resin on him and a large amount of cash
13:27You're a liar, Laura! How dare you!
13:30Hey, enough!
13:30Everything Laura said is true, your son's in serious trouble
13:33Having a pop of urge is not helping
13:34Now calm down, get to the station
13:36Jordan's going to need you
13:38It's our new front office
13:45She is
13:47Margaret?
13:48Margaret?
13:48Who can I say is calling?
13:54Margaret?
13:56Fine
13:56It's your boss
14:03I wish you now
14:07It's a luxury apartment
14:08And she's only 18 years of age
14:10I've got the impression someone's looking after her
14:12Well, Bernie Crime won't be short of a bubble or two
14:14If he's dealing with it
14:15No, he won't
14:16Mate
14:19Is that the kid from the cold lake?
14:26Yeah
14:26Yeah, that's him
14:28Yeah, that's him
14:29Nice one, Lance
14:30He just helped us nick our dealer
14:33Nice one, Lance
14:35He just helped us nick our dealer
14:36The Cherokee Jeep
14:44Registered owner Chanel Middlemiss
14:4616 Haygarth Court
14:47Confirmed as Crime's girlfriend
14:48Obviously he thought that if he put the place in her name
14:51That it'd be hard for us to find him
14:52Well, bring him in by all means
14:54But if a kit bag and a kid with resin
14:56Are the only proof you've got of crying and dealing
14:57I don't fancy our chances
14:59I don't understand
15:05I'm happy here
15:06I don't know what they mean
15:07They have no other option than to relocate me
15:09Margaret, why don't we go and get a cup of tea or something, yeah?
15:13No
15:14It's got to be a mistake
15:16I'll get someone to look into it for me
15:17No problem
15:18Please stand on the floor
15:25Please stand on the floor
15:26Sit down
15:27Sit down, love
15:28What's your name?
15:30Jo?
15:31Put your hands where I can see them
15:32Dizzy Masters on Health
15:35I'm arresting you on suspicion of supplying controlled drugs
15:37You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defense
15:40If you do not mention one question
15:41Something that you later rely on in court
15:42Anything you do say may be given in evidence
15:44Do you understand?
15:46Let's go
15:47In an hour
15:50No, no, no
15:51That's fine
15:52Yeah
15:53Okay
15:54Great
15:55Bye
15:56Yeah
15:58Okay
15:59Um, since I've got the time
16:01I think I might pop out and get myself a proper cup of coffee
16:03Okay
16:04Do you want to join me?
16:05No, I've got what they call a paper mountain to climb
16:07Um, listen, Terry
16:09I think I might go home afterwards
16:11Alright
16:11We'll catch up later
16:12Okay
16:13Oh, I was just coming to find you
16:24I've got to be somewhere
16:26I wanted to ask a quick favour
16:28What?
16:29Oh, I wouldn't ask if I wasn't desperate
16:30I know it's always you I come to
16:32Margaret
16:32You and I are not meant to be speaking
16:35Don't be like that
16:37Well, what do you expect?
16:39I'm being relocated
16:40Well, you must know why
16:41You can't pretend not to know why
16:43Why are you being like this?
16:47I feel really stupid now
16:49Obviously you don't want me here either
16:51I can't deal with this
16:52Ramini, please
16:54Please don't be like that
16:56Ramini
16:59Ramini
17:04Are you okay?
17:29I just didn't expect to see her, that's all
17:31No, well, the DC guy said we'd get rid of her
17:34I could have her escorted out of the building if you want
17:35It's like, it's like
17:36She acted like everything was normal, right?
17:39Like, like this, this past day
17:40Meant nothing
17:41I mean, I can't
17:42Is she, is she winding me up?
17:45Who knows what goes on her age?
17:46Listen to me, Terry
17:47Her eyes
17:48Her eyes were blank
17:49And I don't know
17:50Whether this is, this is genuine mental illness
17:52Or whether this is some sick joke
17:54Or whether she's mad
17:55Or whether she's just trying to get revenge
17:57I don't know anything anymore
17:58Oh yeah, Bernie
18:05You might want to know that one of your little mates
18:08Is sitting in a cell just round that corner
18:10Oh yeah?
18:11Jordan Tomlin
18:11You were with him earlier on today
18:13Looking forward to having a chat with him
18:15Thanks
18:19Does it hurt?
18:27No, no, it's just a grave
18:28Laura, I'm sorry about earlier
18:31You were upset
18:33It's happens
18:34I shouldn't have shouted at you
18:36Jordan said he didn't mean to hurt you
18:39Yeah, right
18:40Stupid boy
18:43What's he thinking of?
18:45Well, he wasn't
18:45Else he wouldn't have run
18:46Can you do something?
18:51He's learnt his lesson
18:52I know he has
18:53I don't know what I can do
18:55It's not down to me
18:56Well, you can talk to someone
18:58I'm asking you as a friend, Laura
19:03Please
19:05Oh, Margaret
19:15They're looking for you
19:16You OK?
19:21Not really, no
19:22It's my last shift
19:23They're moving me to another station
19:25Margaret, why are you saying those things about Ramani?
19:28After all she's done for you
19:30What?
19:31I'm smashing up my car
19:32And pushing me down the stairs
19:33You know she didn't do any of those things
19:35Why are you putting her through this?
19:38I know she's turned against me
19:40But she won't have to worry about me anymore
19:43She won't have to bother
19:44Because I won't be here
19:45Listen to me, Margaret
19:47I want you to go to Barton Street
19:49And tell them you made all that stuff up about her
19:51You don't want to see her suffer anymore, do you?
19:54I've got to go
19:54I'm late for the children
19:56The children are in school, Margaret
19:59I've got to pick them up
20:03Mr. Philip, back here
20:05That's right
20:05Officers
20:06Stamp and Casper
20:08Sunhill
20:08We're out of the spot of trouble with vandalism
20:10Oh, yes
20:11As if dogs messing everywhere isn't enough
20:13Now there's this
20:14Wipe out the filth
20:17Novel
20:18Well, it could be having a go at you lot
20:20Well, it's not graffiti
20:22It's no paint
20:24If anything, it's been scrubbed
20:26It's a state of that
20:27Compared to that
20:28Whoever did it, cleaned it
20:30Are you going to be able to actually do anything about this then?
20:34Traditionally, it's quite hard to track down graffiti artists
20:37It's not graffiti
20:38But it is criminal damage
20:40And we treat that very seriously, Mr. McHugh
20:42So thank you very much for bringing it to our attention
20:44Well, it's not the only one that's cropped up
20:46Really?
20:47Follow me
20:48Yeah, there's nothing as yet
20:59Nah, it's not looking too promising either
21:01Have you ripped up the floorboards?
21:03Do it, Gary
21:04If you can't find any drugs or paraphernalia
21:06Look for documents
21:07Bills, letters
21:07Anything to help us build a case against crime
21:09Let's not take any further action with Jordan
21:13They have no idea with it back home
21:14What, should we give them you a go-trip?
21:16No, I just think we're wasting our time
21:18He didn't hurt me and the possession's petty
21:20It's not just a matter of possession
21:21Me also be carrying on the drugs or barely crying
21:23All right, Gary, keep me posted
21:25We're having no joy at crime's place
21:27You want to work on Jordan?
21:29Well, he's all we've got for now
21:30And anything he can give us on crime is a bonus
21:32Do you really think there's much you can tell us?
21:33Soon find out
21:34He must use some sort of stencil
21:41Well, why don't you use that creativity of yours
21:43To work out how we're going to identify him
21:45That's easy
21:46CCTV
21:47We can watch the maestro at work
21:48That's some out-of-focus kid in a hoodie
21:51Spray on a wall
21:52If you don't spray, it ain't paint
21:54Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever
21:55Look, we'll get the camera from the car
21:56Photograph the evidence
21:57I'll go on a crimp
21:58See if we can work out this guy's MO
22:00CCTV, that's last resort stuff
22:02Yes, boss
22:03Hold up a sec
22:07He's left his signature
22:09What is it, a rat?
22:13Nah, could be a squirrel
22:15Looks like he's got goggles on
22:17What's that all about?
22:19How do I know?
22:20It's got to mean something
22:21Dan, people in their face walls are not philosophers
22:24And maybe his surname's squirrel
22:25Nice
22:26I'll look it up in the phone book
22:28Jordan, how do you know Bernie Cryan?
22:35He's just a mate
22:36Sort of mate
22:38You hang out with regularly?
22:39Not really
22:40So just the sort who set you up with drugs?
22:44Bernie
22:44Nah, man
22:47So who gave you the resin, Jordan?
22:50I found it
22:51Stop wasting their time
22:52I did
22:53On the pavement
22:55Beds are always chasing kids down the coal lane
22:58The amount of stuff that gets emptied out of pockets
23:01Boy
23:02Look, I know you're scared to give us anything on Cryan
23:05You don't want it coming out of your grasp, right?
23:08What we can do is tell you what we know
23:09And you confirm or deny the information
23:12Without it getting out
23:13Or coming back to you
23:14Can we give it a try?
23:18We know Bernie's a cocaine dealer
23:19Can you confirm that?
23:21No
23:22You're denying he's a dealer?
23:24No
23:24Well, what are you doing?
23:25Confirming or denying?
23:27He's having a laugh
23:28At us
23:29Hey, Jordan
23:30Sorry?
23:33Are we still playing confirm or deny?
23:37Dr. Annabert
23:38You gave the authority
23:39For Margaret Barnes to be sectioned earlier this year
23:42Yes
23:43Yes
23:44I realise there are confidentiality issues here
23:47But
23:47Hypothetically, Doctor
23:50If Margaret Barnes didn't take her medication
23:52What would
23:53It's very much
23:56That's really helpful
23:57Anyone needs me, I'm out of the job
24:02All right, mate
24:03Turn the place upside down
24:05Uniform's still there
24:06But we're running out of places to look
24:07I'm not letting Kryon storm out of this
24:09Without evidence, what can we do, eh?
24:11He's not going to come out and admit to dealing
24:12Is there nothing more we can get out with that Jordan guy?
24:15You never know with the gobbled ones
24:16The more they talk
24:17The more chance they might ship themselves
24:18Jordan's not going to grass on Kryon
24:20All we've got is the bag
24:21Now, come on
24:23I'll do the talking
24:23Okay, Bernie
24:27Bernie or Mr Kryon
24:29Which do you prefer?
24:31Call me what you want, babe
24:32So long as you call me a cab in ten
24:34Because you've got nothing on me
24:36Recognise this, Bernie?
24:46For the benefit of the tape
24:47Mr Kryon has just been shown a sports bag
24:50I'm showing Bernie a photo of the bag
24:55Taken under ultraviolet light
24:58Is that your bag?
25:02Bernard Kryon, class 7B?
25:06Possibly
25:06Account for what it was doing in the room of a kid we nicked
25:09For selling cocaine
25:10You're asking me to speculate on an item
25:13I might not have seen in ten years
25:14Kid might have taken it out of my bin
25:17He might have picked it up in a car boot sale
25:20He says you gave it him
25:22Yeah
25:22To get himself out of trouble
25:24You think he'd say that in court?
25:27Be sensible
25:27You can go on trying to link me, the kid, this bag and the drugs
25:34But you can't prove it
25:36You're grasping
25:38So what, let him go?
25:42I'm not giving that cocky little gear the satisfaction
25:45Until I've been through that flight myself
25:46We've already spun the place, I've told you there's no sign
25:48I'm gonna knock on every door in that block
25:50If there are drugs there, I'll find him
25:53What about the bathroom?
26:13Well, we've taken it apart, but nothing
26:14What have you got?
26:18Seriously vigilant neighbour
26:19I'm doing door to door
26:20This bloke asks me whether I've come to arrest the fella
26:23He reported for running a pirate radio station
26:25Fella rings the guy accesses the fire escape onto the roof twice a day
26:28He thought he was adjusting an aerial
26:30And I've been up there
26:31No aerial
26:32Guess who fits the pirate's description
26:35Got the CCTV?
26:42Enjoy?
26:42No, nothing
26:44I think our man's a one-off
26:46Right, afternoon
26:48You front the television
26:49What?
26:50You were the one who's just sitting through that
26:51His last resort stuff
26:52I'm quite up for it now
26:54And you were the one who thought graffiti was boring
26:56Yeah, but it's unusual
26:58Our bloke set a puzzle
26:59I want to solve it
27:01I think you've seen all there is to see
27:02Surely you can think of a better way of coming at it
27:04Than sitting through them
27:05Hark's Constabulary
27:08They do a graffiti
27:10They come across our squirrel
27:12And they've got a bit of database
27:13Yeah, what are you going to do?
27:14That
27:15You contact Environmental Health
27:16See if they've had to whitewash any of our man's work
27:18Yeah, see?
27:20A little bit of head scratching
27:21You remember where you stashed all that knowledge?
27:35All right, all right, I'm coming
27:45Mr Barnes
27:46I'm DC Perkins from Sunhill
27:49We're on late night
27:50Late morning, more late
27:52I won't keep you long
27:53Sunhill?
27:54What's happened?
27:56It's your wife, Margaret
28:04Sorry about the delay, gents
28:05We'll have this wrapped up in no time
28:07Interview resumed at 1.20
28:10Sorry, where were we?
28:13Part way, you were going to call me a cab, babe
28:15Right
28:16Yes
28:18DC Best has entered the room with two packages
28:27Found on the roof at Haygarth Court
28:29Approximately 30 minutes ago
28:31I'm showing Bernie electric scales
28:35And a package that appears to contain roughly
28:38Kilo
28:39Of what I suspect to be cocaine
28:42Who's grasped me up?
28:49It's one of the first places we look
28:50Babe
28:51Get lost, it is
28:52Who's been talking?
28:55That Jordan, eh?
28:56You tell them I'll kill them
29:00They're dead
29:03I won't bother calling that cab just yet
29:05Hey, Bernie
29:06Have you ever known Margaret to have these powerful, obsessive feelings before?
29:13Nah, never
29:14We had a hard time with the manic depression
29:17But nothing like that
29:18Has Margaret been taking her medication?
29:22I don't know
29:23I do ask
29:25And she always says yes
29:28But after a while
29:30She always feels like she can do without it
29:33When was the last time you saw Margaret?
29:36A couple of weeks ago
29:37Oh, but she was so low
29:39She kept asking the kids if they'd miss her
29:42If they never saw her again
29:43I couldn't get the kids to settle for days
29:45I can't put them through that again
29:49So
29:50She has no contact with the kids?
29:53No
29:53Why?
29:56Well, she said she was going to pick them up
29:57Come on
29:58I'm going to have to call her school
30:00So
30:06What treats do you do, then, eh?
30:09Hey
30:13Have you heard?
30:15We've found evidence to charge Bernie crying
30:17Yeah
30:17I told you
30:19If you're persistent
30:20So, what about Jordan, then?
30:25What about him?
30:26Well, with the dealer off the scene
30:27There's no one to turn his head
30:28We could let him off
30:29And do you think that'll be the last we hear of him?
30:31Yeah, I'll do as it happens
30:32We'll find another dealer to run errands for
30:35No, we won't
30:36His mum will see to the house
30:37Laura, you're being naive
30:38Well, I think you're being too hard on him
30:40This isn't about me
30:41It's the law
30:42We don't have to play it by the book
30:44We can deal with this
30:46We give Jordan our time
30:48Tell him no more second chances
30:50Have a word with the youth offending team
30:51And tell them to give him a caution
30:53Oh, come on
30:54Let's not make an example on him, eh?
30:57Why do I think I'm going to regret this?
31:01Is it OK?
31:12The kids are fine
31:13Maggie's not been in
31:15That's a relief
31:16Yeah, but where is she?
31:18If she's not been taking her medication
31:19There's no telling what she might do
31:21I've got to find her
31:22Make sure she's OK
31:23Come on
31:24Don't suppose you'll remember his name
31:27Well, thank you, Mr Huckfield
31:30You're a legend
31:31I was head of cleansing at Haringey Environmental Health
31:35You know, he's our squirrel
31:36Haringey?
31:37Yeah, that geezer spent the last few months wiping out squirrels
31:40Until they found the graffiti artist responsible
31:42Andrew Farley
31:43Oh, so he's a graffiti artist now, is he?
31:45I thought you said he doesn't use paint
31:47He doesn't now
31:48But when he was trying to leave his mark on Haringey
31:50He was well into spray cans
31:51Then he got nicked
31:52And his punishment was to clean them all off
31:54Great
31:55Get on Haringey, Nick
31:56Get his details
31:57Well done
31:59Oh, look
32:15Maggie
32:22Maggie
32:22Maggie
32:26It's me, sweetheart
32:42It's Chris
32:43She's not here
33:05Oh, Maggie
33:13She must be in a right state
33:18These were taken outside Ramani's house
33:23I've got to go
33:26I've got to find her
33:27Look, you stay there
33:32I'll be in touch
33:32Ramani, it's Terry
33:33Call me as soon as you get this message
33:36Jordan, I'd hate to think you didn't take anything away from today
33:50Oh, I learned plenty
33:52It won't happen again
33:54Cheers
34:00Thank you
34:01Jordan, I want to ask you something
34:06I'm asking you to stop seeing those boys you go about with
34:10Go back to college
34:11Why are you asking me that now?
34:15You have to have them here so you can ask me that
34:17We all want this
34:19We don't want you getting involved with bad people
34:21Do I ask to choose your friends?
34:23You know my friends
34:25I know nothing about you anymore
34:26At least tell me who these boys are
34:30So they can go and mash up their cribs
34:32Give me that
34:34Give it back
34:35Jordan, cut it out
34:36You see how he talks to me?
34:38What, are you texting one of them now?
34:40Give it back to me
34:41Jordan, sit down
34:42Annette
34:43No
34:44I will be respected in this house
34:46I'll pay for the blessed thing
34:48I'm keeping it
34:48You will not speak to these boys
34:51You will not see them
34:52And you will go back to college
34:53Look, I think you should go
35:02Sure
35:04I'll just talk to Jordan first, yeah
35:22Jordan!
35:23Hey, commercial landscapers
35:32Move about a lot
35:33Look at the grounds need maintaining
35:35Always up in trees
35:37Safety goggles
35:38Always done
35:39You said it had no meaning
35:51Andrew Farley
35:52Yeah?
35:55Come down, please
35:58A bit busy here, pal
36:01Can you not just shout up?
36:03No
36:03What can I do for you?
36:14Need some advice on clearing the dead wood out of your neck?
36:17I've investigated various incidents of vandalism on walls in the vicinity and identifying your signature tag
36:25What?
36:25I'm arresting you on suspicion of causing criminal damage
36:28Criminal?
36:29How is it criminal?
36:30You don't have to say anything, but it may harm the defence if you're not mentioned when questioned something which you later line in court
36:34How is cleaning dirt off a wall damage?
36:36Anything you do say may be given in evidence
36:37Take the gear off, please
36:38How is it?
36:41Really?
36:42How is it?
36:42How is it?
36:44How is it?
36:49Brody!
37:04Brody, open the door!
37:19...
37:25...
37:33...
37:37...
37:42...
37:44...
37:46...
37:48Romany?
38:07Romany?
38:18Robert, it's Terry Perkins from Sun Hill.
38:44It's okay, it's okay.
38:45Robert, what happens to your hand?
38:52Look, let me just put this over there, okay?
38:57No!
39:04Put the knife down.
39:07Put the knife down, I'm not gonna hurt you.
39:12I'm gonna help you.
39:14Alright?
39:15I wanna help you.
39:19Okay.
39:21Just call an ambulance, alright?
39:28No!
39:35Get my phone, will you?
39:43Margaret, get my phone, will you?
39:50Please, get the phone for me.
39:53Get my phone.
39:54You need to call an ambulance.
39:56Please, Margaret, I'm gonna bleed to death.
39:59You need to get an ambulance, yeah?
40:01Margaret, please.
40:03Margaret!
40:07Margaret!
40:08Margaret!
40:14Margaret!
40:26Margaret!
40:31We'll have a look around, see if we can find him.
40:53Do you know of any particular hangouts?
40:55Hangouts? You're the one who tells me he hangs outside shops in people's cars.
40:59How do you keep track? How do you?
41:01Look, we'll sort it out.
41:03There is a way to keep track. It won't help now, but, um, mobile phone tracers.
41:08What, so you can spy on your own children?
41:10Well, it has to be with the user's consent.
41:14I couldn't.
41:18Look, Annette, it's all right, Annette.
41:20Look, Annette, think about it, yeah.
41:23Like you say, you pay for that phone.
41:31So you're admitting making a template, placing it on surfaces and using...
41:36Wire wool.
41:37Wire wool. And what? Detergent to scrub it off?
41:39Yeah. Bleach.
41:41Some of that dirt's Victorian.
41:42And that's how you produce these designs?
41:47Yeah.
41:48Good, innit?
41:50Original.
41:52Some of them surfaces will be worth something someday.
41:55I doubt it.
41:56Most people find graffiti offensive.
41:59It's not graffiti.
42:00OK, we've established how your myth had come about.
42:05It's from having to clean up your own stuff, yeah?
42:08You know, I don't like to discuss the creative process.
42:12Words just, well, it reduces the integrity of the work, doesn't it?
42:16You're obviously not stupid.
42:18So why waste your ideas on walls and risk this happening?
42:21Look, them walls won minging from years of pollution.
42:25I found that offensive, so I tried to clean it up now.
42:29Why is the crime?
42:30Oh.
42:32You want to argue the law with me, do you?
42:33Yeah.
42:35Go on.
42:36Quote me the one that outlaws responsible citizenship.
42:40Go on.
42:41A good citizen would have left them alone in the first place.
42:44Or at least cleaned the whole surface.
42:46I did what I could in time I had.
42:48You see, you should have finished.
42:50Because now somebody else is going to have to do that job.
42:52And that is where your problem lies.
42:54Those walls were perfectly normal before your intervention.
42:57Now they're defaced and in need of repair.
43:00Yeah.
43:01Only to repair them, you have to clean them.
43:05That's all I'm doing.
43:06Right.
43:08Right.
43:09Well, in that case, you won't mind me telling the CPS that you're offering to finish the job, will you?
43:14Interview over.
43:15A 14.02.
43:20Okay.
43:24So, how did you meet him with the Fed, right?
43:26Oh, very positive, sir.
43:27We went through the process of building my defence and rebuilding my reputation.
43:31Well, your standing was never in doubt.
43:34But you look exhausted.
43:35Why don't you go home?
43:36I will.
43:37I will see.
43:37You're going to need to speak to the cleaning contractor.
43:58Just stay there.
44:00What?
44:01No!
44:02I need you to let me see where the phone's coming from.
44:04Lee, let JT come off. Back off.
44:07Margaret. Margaret.
44:10The Esther Costa's not available, so you're going to have to talk to me.
44:13Is that all right?
44:15Well, um, how many?
44:17Well, she's not available.
44:19Sergeant.
44:21No, I don't want you involved in this.
44:23She'll listen to me. Have you called an ambulance?
44:25Yeah, it's on its way.
44:26No, because she may have a weapon.
44:28Just...
44:29You weren't there.
44:31Margaret, do you know what?
44:33I think that we should go somewhere really quiet away from all these people.
44:37You didn't come.
44:39But I'm here now, Margaret. I'm here now.
44:41So, let's go somewhere else.
44:43So, come on. Let's go in there.
44:45It's really quiet.
44:46It's better get the door.
44:48So, just go in there.
44:50Okay? You'll feel a lot more comfortable, Margaret.
44:52You take my hand.
44:54There we are.
44:55Just take your time.
44:56Just take your time.
44:57It's fine.
44:58Mm-hmm.
44:59So nice and quiet in there.
45:00Mm-hmm.
45:01Would you get something to stem the bleeding, please?
45:03Just in here.
45:04It's nice and quiet.
45:05Oh.
45:09Can I see how your virtues are?
45:11I can't... I can't feel it, I think.
45:13Oh.
45:16I think you probably are in shock.
45:18Um...
45:19How did you do this?
45:21Did you cut yourself?
45:22Mm-hmm.
45:23Yeah.
45:24Okay.
45:25Just...
45:28I'm just gonna try and stop the bleeding.
45:29Do you have what you cut yourself with?
45:31No.
45:32No.
45:33No?
45:34Well, that's good.
45:35That's good.
45:37We're gonna try and stop the bleeding, so you'll feel a lot better.
45:40Give me.
45:41Give me.
45:42Give me.
45:43I knew you'd help me and you...
45:45Next time on The Bill.
46:02The amount of blood on her clothing isn't consistent with her wounds alone.
46:05I'm concerned she might have harmed someone else.
46:08I didn't mean to hurt him.
46:09Please, Margaret. Who was it?
46:12I did my team. It's doing a deal.
46:15I can't still pretend I can't.
46:45I can't.
46:46I can't.
46:48I can't.
46:50I can't.
46:51I can't.
46:53I can't.
46:55I can't.
46:56I can't.
46:58I can't.
