00:00So why did you go to the church?
00:06It's a same night prayer.
00:08He said that he'd been a disappointment.
00:11I spoke to a chap earlier and he said that he went to an art gallery.
00:14The thing is, you'll never guess what he saw there.
00:16I saw you talking to Anthony.
00:18What did he want?
00:19Nothing important.
00:20Champton Vicar visits victims of gay plague.
00:23Dear me, what were you thinking?
00:25Unless this was a random attack,
00:27the murderer must have assumed they knew who they were attacking.
00:30It's God's will.
00:32You should burn in hell.
00:33Does that answer your question?
00:45What do you two want?
00:57It should have been you.
01:27You should burn in hell.
01:32You should burn out.
01:33You should burn zero one another.
02:16Reverend Clement, Daily Express, can you tell us about the murder last night?
02:25Oh, no, no, I'm not right. No comment.
02:35The Express wanted a quote.
02:41I was enjoying that. It's catchy.
02:43It's painful.
02:44That's the dee-doodie.
02:49So what did you tell them?
02:50I said no comment.
02:52How exciting. I've always wanted to say that.
02:56They'll give up in a minute.
02:57Yes, because that's what they do.
02:58Listen, things are going to be difficult enough around here without the papers stirring things up.
03:08So if they approach you, you won't say anything, will you?
03:11Certainly not.
03:14I wouldn't dream of talking to a rag like the Express.
03:18Look, I told you.
03:25Oh.
03:26May I?
03:27How can I help you, detective?
03:35I'd like to talk to everyone who knew Anthony Bowness.
03:38And I figured you'd know where to start.
03:40Well, I expect a lot of them will be at the service this morning.
03:43Lord of Flores has said that we can use Champton House while St. Mary's is...
03:46a crime scene.
03:50Well, you don't think the killer's here, do you?
03:52I think it's a definite possibility.
03:55Right.
03:56I think we're looking at three options.
03:58Anthony could have been killed because he interrupted a robbery.
04:03Or he could have been the intended victim all along and we just don't know yet why he was targeted.
04:09And then there's option three.
04:11The murderer made a mistake and the person they really wanted to kill was you.
04:16None of this makes sense.
04:37To take a life in a church, the house of God, it's an abomination.
04:44And I ask myself, what purpose did it serve?
04:50Was it God's plan?
04:53Because if it was, I'm not sure that I can understand it.
04:56I doubt any of us can.
04:57And so for now, I pray.
05:04I pray for the soul of the departed.
05:09And I pray for whoever did him wrong.
05:13That they receive justice and mercy.
05:17Is this about Mr. Burnout?
05:26Yes.
05:27Right.
05:27See you later.
05:36Mercy for the killer.
05:39And it won't go down well.
05:40Yes.
05:42Well, I don't believe in retribution.
05:45I made him a little scared.
05:47I'm doing it.
05:48I'm doing it.
05:49Yes, sir.
05:50That's what you're doing, man.
05:51Yeah?
06:12Boy.
06:15Does MGM mean anything to you?
06:17You mean apart from the flicks? No, not really.
06:20How did Anthony ever find anything?
06:23Yeah, I did ask him that once.
06:25He seemed so together.
06:27I had no idea he was so...
06:30Yeah.
06:32Yeah, no one did.
06:36So, how well did you know Mr. Bowness?
06:38Not especially.
06:40Kept himself to himself, mostly.
06:42We didn't have a lot in common.
06:44Um, I knew him from the choir, but that's all I'm afraid.
06:49Oh, well, he didn't make it easy.
06:51Kept everyone at arm's length, like he was ashamed.
06:55Don't think anybody disliked him.
06:58You should have got to have a personality to be disliked.
07:01Tell me, will this delay the Reverend's plans to install a toilet in the church?
07:07You should talk to Edgy.
07:10Edgy?
07:11Patrick Liversidge, the gamekeeper.
07:14There was some sort of bad blood between him and Anthony.
07:18You know what they're like.
07:20They?
07:23Gypsies.
07:24Right.
07:27Right.
07:35It's Chompton House.
07:37Oh!
07:39Yeah.
07:40Yeah, it's during the war.
07:41Wow.
07:42The place is filled with MOD bigwigs and all that SOE stuff.
07:46All very, you know, hush-hush.
07:48Yes.
07:50Oh, look at that.
07:52Now it's Kath and Dora Sharman on the right.
07:54Oh, they worked at the house?
07:55Yeah, as housemates before and after the war and then for the MOD during it.
07:59In fact, quite a few women from the village actually got seconded.
08:04Oh, my God.
08:06What is it?
08:07Oh, it's from the plane that crashed.
08:10Plane crash?
08:11Oh, yeah, yeah.
08:12The SOE chaps used to fly across to France.
08:15They'd rendezvous with the resistance.
08:16They'd drop off agents that supplies weapons and then come straight back.
08:21But they used to take off and land right by the house.
08:24So Anthony and I...
08:25Yeah, we used to watch them from my bedroom window.
08:30So what happened?
08:31Oh.
08:33Yeah, no, it was, um...
08:35It was late.
08:37Must have been around 11.
08:38Anyway, we heard the engines fire up so we raced over to the window and...
08:44Well, she took off okay and then she...
08:48Oh.
08:50I said it was faulty wiring and spark and she just, you know, exploded.
08:55Well, they didn't stand a chance.
08:59Anyway, a few days later Anthony...
09:01Found this.
09:02Said he wanted to keep it.
09:05A reminder that the war was...
09:08Real.
09:10Yeah.
09:11Have we got any of that lavender honey left?
09:22Well, she'll be in here.
09:24Visit the lavender fields of Provence.
09:41Don't you think it's time?
09:43Oh.
09:44Oh.
09:45Oh.
09:46Oh.
10:16I've heard stories, is all I'm saying.
10:24What sort of stories?
10:26Well, outsider comes from a small rural community.
10:29There are always secrets, which he uncovers,
10:33and it always ends badly for him.
10:35First of all, Anthony wasn't really an outsider,
10:38and second, it's not the Wicker Man.
10:41Who said anything about Anthony?
10:43Okay.
10:45So, tell me about Patrick Liversidge.
10:51Well, uh, Edgy was a boxer once upon a time.
10:55Fares and a bare-knuckle circuit.
10:57I hear he was pretty good at it,
10:58but when he got back from the war, he was too old to fight.
11:01So he got a job as the gamekeeper.
11:04Not at first.
11:06He was a debt collector for a while.
11:10There were rumours, pub gossip mostly,
11:11that he did more than just collect the money.
11:16Handed out punishments, too.
11:18And he was very good at that.
11:20Can you have a word?
11:33Did you know Anthony?
11:34Anthony, like in the village.
11:35How word are you?
11:36No comment.
11:40I didn't know him, to be honest.
11:41Even though you were both working at Champton House?
11:46We said hello and that, you know, polite like.
11:49Margaret Portis seemed to think that you didn't get on.
11:53Oh, is that right?
11:55Yeah, bad blood is what she said.
11:57And I would say she's got a very good imagination.
12:00When was the last time you saw Mr. Bourness?
12:06Uh, that would be the open day, I suppose.
12:11When?
12:12In the morning.
12:13I was doing the parking.
12:15Okay.
12:17Only Mrs. Portis says she saw you talking to him much later.
12:21Oh, if that's what she said.
12:22What were you talking about?
12:23I don't remember.
12:30It's understandable, Edgy.
12:32These last couple of days, I've certainly forgotten things.
12:35It's the shock.
12:36Yeah, thanks, Reverend.
12:37It is upsetting.
12:40You get all churned up, Clark.
12:43Sorry.
12:49Don't do that.
12:50Do what?
12:51You feel the silence.
12:52Well, I don't see how that...
12:53You let him off the hook, and you reassured him.
12:55No, I was simply...
12:56I don't want them reassured.
12:57I want them off balance.
12:59Because that's when they're likely to say something interesting.
13:02You know, people quite often tell me things that they're ashamed of.
13:06But they don't want others to know.
13:07You don't have to trick them.
13:09Not everybody wants to confess.
13:15I mean, how long's the church going to be closed for?
13:17Different jacket.
13:19All my gardening stuff's there.
13:20How am I meant to prune my roses?
13:22It's most inconvenient.
13:23For Mr. Bowness, too, I should think.
13:27What's it meant to be?
13:29A sophisticated garden party.
13:32They look like they're waiting for the bus.
13:34Hello.
13:46Mrs. Clement.
13:48I saw the sign outside, and I couldn't resist.
13:52Aren't I the fortunate one?
13:54Stella.
13:55High-class ladies' fashion.
13:57So inviting.
13:59So literal.
13:59We have all the labels here, you know?
14:04Country casuals, trick or veal, Jaeger, of course.
14:08I can see.
14:09Very impressive.
14:10Can I interest you in anything today?
14:13No.
14:13Just looking.
14:15I understand.
14:16Quality items like these don't suit every budget.
14:19Sometimes I have a sail rail.
14:24Come again.
14:25You never know, you might get lucky.
14:28I did want to say this.
14:31Take on my son.
14:33You take on me, too.
14:36Good to know.
14:37I think I'm going to like it here.
14:46A marvellous display.
14:58Excuse me?
14:59No, I told you.
15:00I understand.
15:02I'm sorry about earlier.
15:03Some reporters can be a bit pushy.
15:05A bit?
15:06We try not to be like that, the Telegraph.
15:09We find it pays to be a bit more respectful.
15:13Get more that way, I think.
15:16Don't you?
15:19I do.
15:20You're going to France?
15:22Both of you?
15:23I've got a little bit of side.
15:25You know, for a rainy day.
15:26I've always wanted to go to Provence.
15:28To see the lavender fields?
15:30Originally, yes.
15:31But it just never happened.
15:33So I thought, if not now, when?
15:36Another?
15:37Oh, yes.
15:43You know, she's doing all this for me.
15:47She knows how important it is.
15:49She's making sure there's nothing left undone.
15:52The least I can do in return is take care of her, so that the time we have left is as good
15:58as it can be.
16:04Sterling work yesterday, I thought.
16:07On the harmonium?
16:08Oh.
16:08Not quite the fruity tones of the church organ, but needs must, I suppose.
16:14Yes.
16:14Well, thank you, sir.
16:16And then the interview with the police, straight after.
16:20Such excitement.
16:21Lily?
16:22You think so?
16:23Absolutely.
16:23Absolutely.
16:25Unless you've got something to hide, that is.
16:27Yeah, I suppose.
16:29I mean, I'm sure you told them about seeing Anthony the night before he died.
16:35I was cycling home.
16:37I saw you coming out of his cottage.
16:40I must say, it all seemed a little furtive.
16:44But I'm probably just imagining things.
16:47I expect so.
16:52Are you coming?
17:02Ed.
17:04Excuse me.
17:05Ed.
17:05Can you just wait a minute?
17:09Sorry, Harry.
17:11I just wanted to say, I was sorry to hear about your dad.
17:15Thanks, Kath.
17:16He lived a good life.
17:18And I know he must have been so proud of you.
17:22Anyway, I just wanted to, you know.
17:32Seems Patrick Leversedge has a bit of form.
17:35I thought you might.
17:36Dating back to the 50s.
17:38Couple of arrests for ABH and one for demanding money with menaces.
17:43Right, convictions?
17:44None that I could find.
17:45Also, I got a list of the phone calls made to and from Anthony Bowness's phone the month
17:51before his death.
17:52Right.
17:53The day before Anthony Bowness was killed, five phone calls were made to him.
17:57Okay, and?
17:59That number's a direct line to the editor of the Gazette.
18:04Ned Thwait.
18:05Ned.
18:06Ned.
18:08I'm sorry.
18:11Please.
18:15Ned.
18:19Ned.
18:23I know I promised I said I wouldn't see him, and for a long time I didn't, honest.
18:27But Anthony, he needed me.
18:31I couldn't just abandon him.
18:33It doesn't work like that.
18:35I had no choice.
18:39How long?
18:44A couple of months.
18:45A couple of months.
18:45And he kept it secret?
18:55All that time?
18:57Nothing happened, I swear.
19:00I never meant to deceive you, and I would never do anything to hurt you.
19:05Forgive me.
19:08Please?
19:08Alex.
19:24Jim and tonic.
19:26Meeting someone?
19:28Just dropped in for a quick one.
19:32I'll get this.
19:34Cheers.
19:37Listen, I...
19:38I know it's probably nothing, but...
19:41I saw you with Anthony at the end of the open day.
19:44And...
19:45It looked like you were having a row.
19:47Were you?
19:50He was just being a bit arsy.
19:53Why?
19:55My guess, he was pissed off with Parker's...
19:58They'd had a row, and he ended up taking it out on me.
20:02You know?
20:03Kick the cat.
20:06Surprising how often that happens.
20:08Take care, walking home.
20:15Haven't you heard?
20:16There's a killer about.
20:17There's a killer about.
20:17There's a killer.
20:29I can't do this for you.
20:30Look!
20:38There you go.
20:39I can't, I can't see...
20:44I don't know.
21:14Oh, dear me, that's rather horrid.
21:19Did you hear anything?
21:20No, not a peep.
21:23Right, that's it.
21:25They've gone too far this time.
21:28How dare they upset you like this?
21:32That's my job.
21:44I can't believe he's in the paper.
21:52Morning, ladies.
21:53Morning, Rector.
21:57That's OK, Rector.
21:59He was only chopsing.
22:01Stamps, please, Mrs Brains.
22:0221st and 22nd.
22:03Your orders arrive, too.
22:07Those fancy pens.
22:10But you know paper won't arrive before Thursday.
22:13Gay plague pasta.
22:31You know what they're like.
22:33His support for the gays is controversial,
22:39even amongst those closest to him.
22:42I don't think we could have got that from anywhere.
22:45He was always one for lost causes,
22:48said his mother, Audrey, 67.
22:50He said he was from the Telegraph.
22:55What time will you be home?
22:57Not late.
22:58Why?
22:58What have you got planned?
23:00Peace offerings.
23:01Jay, you really don't have to.
23:03I know, but I want to.
23:06Yeah, OK.
23:07All right.
23:08Well, I've got to go.
23:09OK, bye.
23:14Hey, thanks for coming in.
23:16I feel a bit of a fraud, to be honest.
23:18Well, I took a look, like you asked,
23:21but I'm afraid I couldn't see anything unusual.
23:23Ah, right.
23:36Canon Clemon.
23:37Detective.
23:40And it was pinned to a dead rat,
23:41hanging outside the front door.
23:43Well, whoever it was has a taste for the Gothic.
23:46And access to a dead rat.
23:48Someone like Patrick Liversidge.
23:52Maybe there's some truth to the pub gossip after all.
23:55I'll, er, get it tested.
23:57You never know.
23:59I spoke to Alex DeFlois last night.
24:02He said that Anthony had rowed with his father at the open day.
24:06Bernard never mentioned a row.
24:07Well, he didn't, did he?
24:09He didn't, did he?
24:13Listen, um, yesterday, I came down on you a bit hard.
24:18It's fine.
24:19I shouldn't have jumped in.
24:20You were right.
24:22There are other ways of getting people to talk.
24:25Well, the caller helps.
24:29Gosh.
24:31Listen, um, going over to the Gazette,
24:34Nev Thwaite was all over Anthony's phone records.
24:38You want to tag along?
24:40Hmm?
24:40Oh, hello, Kath.
24:49Hello, Rector.
24:50Mr Thwaite, DS Van Loo.
24:53Can we have a word?
24:55Er, yeah.
24:56Yeah, sure.
24:56We'll have to walk and talk.
24:57Well, Anthony Bowness was a pain.
25:02On and on about his bloody champton-at-wall stuff.
25:05He was always here, wanting to go through the archive.
25:07And that's a problem.
25:09Well, it is if you don't pay for it.
25:11Look, we've been putting a paper out every week since 1907.
25:14That's a lot of back numbers and it takes up a lot of space.
25:17I've been trying to put it all on microfiche, but it's expensive.
25:19So I started charging him for access.
25:21Only Anthony Bowness thought that because he was de Floor's cousin,
25:24he should somehow get it for free.
25:26He's taking additions home with him like it was his own private archive.
25:30So you denied him access?
25:32Yeah.
25:33Didn't stop him from coming, making a fuss.
25:35Last week he went off on one.
25:36Actually made the receptionist cry.
25:38Well, I wasn't having that.
25:39So I gave him a call.
25:40Told him not to come here anymore.
25:41Nothing sinister.
25:43Do you know specifically what he was researching?
25:45Something about the war?
25:47Appears to be a popular subject right now.
25:49New copy for page seven.
25:51Doing a piece myself, actually.
25:52The one that got away.
25:55Ah, Captain Philip Curlin.
25:57He was a champton running SOE operations.
25:59He was a suspected double agent, but it appears he hightailed it back to Germany before he could be unmasked.
26:05They covered it up at the time.
26:07Double agents, bad for morale.
26:09And it stayed covered.
26:10Is that why Kath Sharman was here?
26:12Yeah.
26:13Yeah, that's right.
26:13I was hoping she could help me with my research.
26:17Flight logs and stuff.
26:19Waste of time, sadly.
26:20Apparently 40 years plays havoc on the memory.
26:23Look, if that's everything.
26:25A reverso.
26:26Yeah, that's right.
26:28It was a wedding gift from Jane.
26:31When I was a kid, I saw John Mills with one in Above Us The Waves.
26:35It might just have been the coolest thing I'd ever seen.
26:39Right, okay.
26:41Well, look, I really do have to go.
26:45What?
26:48Unbelievable.
26:56Don't forget the Bat Rawdens are coming for lunch.
27:15And they're bringing Henrietta.
27:18I'm not marrying Henrietta Bat Rawden.
27:21Why not?
27:21She's a lovely girl.
27:22Or anyone else.
27:23You have to marry somebody, Alexander.
27:26You know, if you're so worried, why don't you concentrate on honour?
27:30Last time I looked, she was very much single.
27:32Because you are next in line.
27:34And God forbid that the floors die out, right?
27:40Would it be so terrible?
27:46I want to tidy yourself up.
27:56Well, she can't confirm Ned's story.
28:24She wasn't in that day, but she did say that Anthony had kicked up a fuss before, and that generally, he was a right divvy who needed taking down a peg.
28:33All six.
28:34So, there's that.
28:37Right.
28:38You coming?
28:38I might have something.
28:40What?
28:41There was a note about MGM in Anthony's house.
28:44Of course I know Mr. Bonus.
28:52He comes in every couple of months.
28:54Buying or selling?
28:55Selling.
28:56Is there a problem?
28:58I'm afraid Mr. Bonus was murdered.
29:01The day before yesterday.
29:03Jesus.
29:05Sorry.
29:06When was the last time you saw him?
29:10Uh, a couple of weeks ago.
29:13He brought this in.
29:16Luigi Loire, from about 1863.
29:19Very nice.
29:21And you're sure it's genuine?
29:23Of course.
29:24I have each item individually appraised and verified.
29:26And Mr. Bonus's paperwork, the provenance and such like, was always excellent.
29:33He was a pleasure.
29:36Mostly.
29:37Mostly?
29:38About six months ago, he, um, started to be more pushy on the price.
29:44He got quite aggressive, saying he needed to make more from the deal.
29:49I mean, really.
29:51Who's the one with the overheads?
29:52Did he say why he wanted more?
29:54I just thought he was being greedy.
29:57Which surprised me, because he, he never struck me as the greedy type.
30:03It felt wrong while mum and dad were still alive.
30:08Trying to find my real parents.
30:13Disrespectful, sort of.
30:14You didn't want to hurt their feelings?
30:17They gave me everything.
30:19But it's, it's like, there's this blank.
30:22I mean, looking at all this stuff.
30:26And last night, when people were telling me all those stories about dad, I realised how little I know.
30:31About?
30:32How they came to adopt me.
30:34I mean, I know they came here in 1947 from Norfolk.
30:40And they didn't tell you anything else?
30:42Just my father died before I was born.
30:44And my mother, you know, they weren't married, so she couldn't.
30:48You know, if you start digging, you might not like what you find.
31:03He was right.
31:14Anthony didn't seem the greedy type.
31:15If enough money's involved, I find most people are the greedy type.
31:19Cynic.
31:20Probably.
31:20I really thought we were going to find something, you know, concrete that would blow the case wide open.
31:26Yeah, it doesn't work that way.
31:27Mostly it's just spaghetti against the wall.
31:31You throw a watch and see what sticks.
31:32Scales are falling from my eyes.
31:34Sadly, the eureka moment doesn't happen very often.
31:37I imagine it's pretty good when it does, though.
31:39I'll let you know.
31:40Do you think they'll want to talk to me?
31:46Of course they will.
31:47So just stick to the story and we'll be okay.
31:53Why would they think we had something to do with it?
31:55Because anything bad, someone always thinks we had something to do with it.
32:01No one likes us, son.
32:02That's just the way it is.
32:05They never have, they never will.
32:07So we look after our own.
32:11Well, why do you remember that?
32:20Do me a favour.
32:23Take a look at this.
32:27What was Anthony's?
32:29It was on him when he was killed.
32:31We can't make head or tail of it.
32:34Can I hang on to it?
32:34Sure.
32:36If anything leaps out, let me know.
32:38Well, I can't promise, but spaghetti against the wall, eh?
32:42Yeah.
32:46Say?
32:47Their preliminary forensic reports are back.
32:50Oh, it's fine.
32:51Come on.
32:52Well, they found traces of lateral, meristematic and dermal tissue in the wound.
32:57Plant matter?
32:59Plants?
33:00The stem, apparently.
33:07The secateurs?
33:10Sorry?
33:11This is the flower room.
33:12The secateurs are kept here without fail.
33:14Stella insists.
33:16But where are they?
33:18If the secateurs were the murder weapon, they could be anywhere.
33:22I doubt the killer hung on to them.
33:23But it makes it all spur of the moment, doesn't it?
33:26If you intend to kill, don't you bring the weapon with you?
33:28So, who knew they were there?
33:31Only member of the church, I imagine.
33:33It wasn't a secret.
33:34Well, then, that's where we're going to find the killer, Daniel.
33:37In your congregation.
33:38What's next?
33:59I'm separate from the doctor.
34:01I'm sorry, Ash.
34:02I don't care if anything about the killer.
34:05A confess.
34:05Bishop, I didn't know you were coming.
34:18A flying visit.
34:20Your mother's been taking care of me.
34:23Spilling the beans in all sorts of ways.
34:27Has she, indeed?
34:29Most enlightening.
34:31My lord, you are too kind.
34:35As much as I'd love to hear more stories, time and time, will you excuse me?
34:44I think the study, don't you?
34:52So, how are you?
34:54Bearing up. Thank you, Bishop.
34:56It's a heavy burden you're carrying.
34:59I'm dealing with it. What else can you do?
35:02Indeed.
35:04Still, there's a lot of publicity.
35:07Something like this, it's bound to attract attention.
35:10People talk.
35:12Even though it'd be better if they didn't.
35:14What would be better is if they didn't have anything to talk about in the first place.
35:19Well, I'm sure we all wish there hadn't been a murder, but, uh...
35:24I'm not talking about the murder.
35:28I'm talking about ill-advised photo opportunities.
35:35My visit to the AIDS patient.
35:37Oh, it's a delicate situation.
35:47But seeing their vicar mixing with people like that, it's upsetting the congregation.
35:57I'm sure you understand.
36:00I'm beginning to.
36:01Well, good.
36:03Then I'm confident that's the end of the matter.
36:07Do thank your mother for me.
36:09I particularly enjoyed hearing about your childhood.
36:13It's always nice to get a bit of context.
36:18Don't you think?
36:19That was fun, wasn't it?
36:35Well, you could have tried a bit harder.
36:42Why?
36:43I don't know.
36:44Good manners.
36:45Because it's important to par.
36:49What's the matter, Alex?
36:54The police...
36:57nosing around, asking questions.
36:58Well, that is sort of their job.
37:00The thing is, you can't choose what secrets get out.
37:03Can you?
37:05You'll be okay.
37:06They just want to find the murderer.
37:08Anything else is...
37:10irrelevant.
37:11Irrelevant.
37:19I don't know.
37:20I don't know.
37:21I don't know.
37:22I don't know.
37:22I don't know.
37:23I don't know.
37:23I don't know.
37:24I don't know.
37:24I don't know.
37:25I don't know.
37:25I don't know.
37:26I don't know.
37:27I don't know.
37:27I don't know.
37:28I don't know.
37:28I don't know.
37:29I don't know.
37:30I don't know.
37:30I don't know.
37:31I don't know.
37:32I don't know.
37:33I don't know.
37:34I don't know.
37:35I don't know.
37:36I don't know.
37:37I don't know.
37:38I don't know.
37:39I don't know.
37:40I don't know.
37:41I don't know.
37:42I don't know.
37:43I'm going up to the house.
37:55I thought lamb chops tonight.
37:58Whatever you like.
38:04Well, this is where Anthony did a lot of his research.
38:08This was his hiding place.
38:09There are records here of the house and the village.
38:13They date back to the 1700s.
38:15I mean, there's all sorts.
38:18Yeah, feel free to have a poke around.
38:37Oh, the church.
38:39May I take this?
38:45Yeah, I'll help myself.
38:47Oh, my goodness.
38:50That's us.
38:52Me and Anthony.
38:53God, I didn't know he had this.
38:54Is that you riding the horse?
38:55Yeah, I used to ride all the time.
38:58Wow.
38:59Wow.
38:59Did you know he was writing a book?
39:14No.
39:16No, that's the first I've heard of it.
39:18Maybe you could try and get it published.
39:20Kind of a legacy.
39:21Yeah, I'd like that.
39:23I'll go.
39:24Yeah.
39:24It's good.
39:25Yeah, I mean.
39:27Yeah, I and Anthony.
39:32Yeah.
39:33Yeah.
39:34He's trying to.
39:40Yeah.
39:42I love you.
39:55Bernard, can you explain how I saw this painting for sale in a gallery just a few hours ago?
40:03Hmm.
40:08Well, Anthony was quite clever, really.
40:12So we have a, um, you know, a fair collection of paintings here, and, um, well, he was careful.
40:19It was only the middle to low-ranking ones that he had copied, so as not to draw attention.
40:24But how did he convince the gallery owner they were genuine?
40:28Because they were.
40:31The copies are hanging here.
40:35You see, it's not illegal to copy a painting, only to pass it off as the genuine article, which, of course, he didn't do.
40:42So the only person he defrauded?
40:48Was me.
40:50Yeah.
40:55Alex told me that you'd had a row with Anthony at the open day.
40:59Is that what it was about?
41:01Yes, one of the visitors had been looking around the house, and he'd seen the painting, told me there was an identical one in the gallery, so.
41:08I contacted the gallery, and they told me where they got the painting from.
41:13Then I confronted Anthony, and said I was going to go to the police.
41:16What did he say?
41:18Well, he rather called my bluff.
41:20He said I wouldn't tell anyone, because I didn't want to risk a scandal, and, of course, well, he was right.
41:27Amazing.
41:27Really?
41:27You know, after everything I'd done for him.
41:36Instead of being grateful, he just...
41:39He resented it.
41:42I imagine you were pretty angry.
41:45Damn right I was.
41:46The bishop was nice.
42:00Hmm.
42:01Very smart car he's got.
42:03Does he?
42:04And a chauffeur, too.
42:06Actually, it's the gardener.
42:07He doubles up when the bishop wants to make an impression.
42:09He's a powerful man, Daniel, and I think you should do what he says.
42:18I couldn't help overhear him.
42:20Through the door?
42:22Just keep your head down.
42:25Don't rock the boat.
42:26I see.
42:28And even if I think...
42:29You have a nice life here, Daniel.
42:30A beautiful church, friends, a roof over your head.
42:34Don't mess it up.
42:35And what if I think the bishop is wrong?
42:41What do I say to those people out there who are all alone and who need someone right now to be by their side?
42:47You're right.
42:48I do have a nice life, but it comes with a commitment, doesn't it?
42:52To do what's hard because it's the right thing to do.
42:57Shouldn't that be what the church is for?
42:58I remember when it was the miners and you were there on the picket line.
43:05Now it's the homosexuals.
43:09You have an admirable commitment to helping others.
43:14What a shame it didn't extend to your own family.
43:25Thanks for the chops.
43:58Oh, yeah.
44:18Ned?
44:19Supper?
44:20I'm, uh, just cleaning up.
44:23Remembering you, falling into my arms, crying for the death of your heart.
44:33You were stone white, so delicate, lost in the cold.
44:39You were always so lost in the dark.
44:45Remembering you, how you used to be.
44:49You were so down, you were ages, so much more than everything.
44:56Oh, for the last time, you slip away quietly.
