00:00500 years, enduring perennial, this be the time of our quincentennial, husband, wife,
00:27son, and daughter. Pray silence for the story of this great slaughter.
00:41No, no, no, Dottie. Music needs to flow around my words like a river.
00:48Dottie, do remember, your cue is the reverend mother symbolically handing over the key.
00:55I'm so sorry. I was worried I'd miss it.
00:58No, fear not, Miss Thimble. That will be near impossible.
01:01Sort of sisters wanted to be involved.
01:04Reverend mother's idea out with their heads held high.
01:07But I agree with you, it seems an odd time to celebrate staring down the barrel of St Vincent's being sold off.
01:12Apologies, Lord Sedgwick.
01:14No, you're right. Their courage and enthusiasm is inspiring.
01:19Hippi-piri.
01:22Inspector, Mr. Panasa here apparently has a model of the proposed development,
01:30which will need to be brought on stage for the speeches.
01:33Right you are. Where is it? Somewhere very safe.
01:38Ruth?
01:39Hello, Sam.
01:44Ruth Penny. In the flesh, or flash, as it were.
01:47How lovely.
01:49You know each other?
01:50We do.
01:51Hello, Felix.
01:52Hello, Ruth.
01:53Sister.
01:54But how? Why?
01:56Well, don't get excited, Sam. Things are wonderful with Kingsley.
01:59I'm working.
02:00A story on how the St Vincent's development could be rolled out nationwide.
02:03I'll explain everything in my speech tomorrow.
02:06Tomorrow is about great slaughter, Mr. Panasa, not world domination.
02:12Lynn Goodwin, as our town's council leader, I shall be doing the unveiling.
02:19I give you Lord Adam Sedgwick Towers.
02:26Oh, my.
02:28Yes, I thought you'd be impressed, sister.
02:30Progress. Like a shark, we keep moving forward or we die.
03:05Our last day before we're all separated. Let's try to enjoy it.
03:11At this rate, I'll be enjoying a hernia.
03:14Your reward should be in heaven, sisters.
03:16One briefcase bomb.
03:18I remember that one. Thought I was a goner.
03:21One ritual dagger from the secret covenant of witches.
03:26And one brassiere.
03:29Are you blushing, Sam?
03:32That was a lethal murder weapon.
03:34We had some fun, didn't we?
03:37Our little family's breaking up.
03:40There, there, Peggy.
03:42To everything, there is a season.
03:44The time to laugh.
03:46Don't you want to danger at me, young man?
03:47The time to...
03:48What do you think you are?
03:49I am the person kicking you out.
03:51Shout.
03:51You stubborn penguin.
03:52The new owner.
03:54Makes no odds to me who you are, dear.
03:58It is a matter of simple physics.
04:00If you want me moved, you are going to have to physically pick me up.
04:05Oh, my.
04:05It's really her.
04:06For goodness sake, woman.
04:08My builder needs to take sight measurements.
04:10All right.
04:11We're all emotional.
04:12This is hard for every one of us.
04:14Oh, Lord Matthew Sedgwick, upon whose land we stand.
04:19The fact that I oppose this Frankenstein's monster of a development is irrelevant.
04:25Oh, you horrible old battle axe.
04:30What on the earth is going on?
04:34This is a place of prayer, not to wash a woman's beck fence.
04:38Reverend Mother Adrienne, may I introduce Sister Helena,
04:41a esteemed archaeologist and a, well, something of a hero.
04:46We are acquainted.
04:48Helena.
04:50Reverend Mother, I have written permission from the diocese
04:55to photograph and document this glorious ancient chapel
04:59before it is butchered.
05:02Yes, and I try to tell her I need...
05:05Young men, you do not own this land, not yet.
05:07So until tomorrow, when contracts are exchanged,
05:12Sister Helena stays.
05:25Sorry for raising my voice earlier.
05:28Council elections are upon us, and...
05:31I boarded at a convent school.
05:34Life was a living hell.
05:36Hated nuns ever since, no offence.
05:39Nun taken?
05:41Yes.
05:45We'll talk at dinner.
05:46Yes, Sister?
05:57Boniface.
05:58I've read all your papers.
06:00Egypt, Machu Picchu, Ephesus.
06:02Just extraordinary.
06:03If you'll forgive.
06:05You are one of the reasons I felt called to the sisterhood,
06:09and just to know that you're a sister here yourself.
06:11All right, all right.
06:12That's enough boot-licking.
06:14If you must know,
06:17I've admired your work from afar, too.
06:21Your forensic deductions, your eye for detail.
06:25Golly.
06:27Well, um, one detail from your writings.
06:32You already examined this chapel a number of years ago.
06:35Did you miss something?
06:37The Lord works in mysterious ways, Sister.
06:41Sister, we shall speak further.
06:46Yes.
06:50And another just like that?
06:57It's lovely.
06:59Religious.
06:59Oh.
07:02You have a journalist's eye, Ruth Penny.
07:04Seek from my mum.
07:07She must be so proud.
07:10Actually, I don't know.
07:12Is she no longer with us?
07:14No, she...
07:16She got mixed up with some religious types.
07:21Left me with my dad.
07:22Are we done?
07:27Oh, yes.
07:30She left me with her.
07:39Oh.
07:40Oh.
07:54Oh.
07:55Good Lord.
08:04No, no. Just his helper wrestling this tiny batch of forensic records.
08:09Well, lucky you found a good Samaritan.
08:11Lord Sedgwick, I presume?
08:13Matthew, please.
08:14I could hardly leave Sister Boniface to shift all these on her own.
08:17I'm already making her homeless.
08:20Well, perhaps we could assuage some of that guilt with an interview.
08:23Ruth Penny, journalist.
08:27I noticed they're naming the development after your father.
08:30My only request. He loved St Vincent's so dearly.
08:36I just wish there was another way.
08:41Sister Peter, breathe. What is it?
08:50This is Sister Helena's writing.
08:52Return post-haste, vitally important.
08:55I can drive.
08:57Oh, yes.
09:02Sister Helena!
09:06Oh, goodness.
09:09There's no two ways about it.
09:17She's really, truly dead.
09:21What in the name of all the same's happened?
09:25Blunt force bopped to the back of the skull.
09:27I'm afraid it's murder.
09:29Another one?
09:31Here?
09:32Now, listen to me, Inspector.
09:35I am not having the Sisterhood's parting legacy be a brutal, unsolved killing.
09:42Understood.
09:43Sister Boniface?
09:45No bruising.
09:46No broken nails.
09:48All signs of a struggle.
09:49I think she was struck from behind, unaware.
09:52Sister.
09:53Sister.
09:54And what are these flags that are on her habit?
09:56Oh, yes.
09:58Ivory-coloured lipophilic compound.
10:02Wax.
10:05From its hue and pigmentation,
10:08it's the sort utilised in...
10:11a traditional Catholic pillar candle.
10:13I believe we have our killer candlestick.
10:24Oh, no, no.
10:25Touch.
10:26So, it was opportunistic.
10:28Grabbed in the moment.
10:30But why?
10:32Why, indeed.
10:34Did Sister Helena say anything else at all when she gave you the note?
10:37No.
10:40Actually, yes.
10:43She was walking around, nervous,
10:46and whispered, I should tell you,
10:50in suchello,
10:52in conspectu.
10:55Latin.
10:57In the chapel, in plain sight.
11:01It's curious.
11:02It does suggest she'd either seen or found something.
11:08Her camera might contain a clue,
11:10if we can still use your darkroom.
11:12Expose the lead.
11:13Yes.
11:14Ingenious idea, Peggy.
11:16Let's get this all to the lab.
11:18One last time.
11:19The chapel was out of bounds because of the model to everyone aside from the nuns,
11:28Sister Helena, and you two.
11:31You think one of us did this?
11:32Well, we did see you argue with her.
11:33Well, we did see you argue with her.
11:34Yes, over getting started on building work.
11:38Why would we complicate things?
11:39What does this mean for the quintentennial?
11:41Do I need to cancel?
11:42Just keep calm and carry on.
11:44But let us do our job.
11:46And this chapel is now closed to everyone.
11:50Journalists included.
11:51Oh, come on, Sam.
11:54Don't be such a killjoy.
11:56Sister gets her last case.
11:57Why can't I play two?
11:59Oh, the old team together one last time.
12:02If we're going to do this, we do it properly.
12:04No games.
12:05Maybe you could check the bugle, see if there's anything on Sister Helena's past.
12:08Inspector Gillespie, you are on.
12:17The film's drying.
12:19I'm off to see Reverend Mother about her records.
12:24I know someone's been brutally murdered, but...
12:28I'm really going to miss doing this.
12:30You and me both, Peggy dear.
12:32I mean, what are we going to do without you, your sister?
12:36It's hardly like we can replace you.
12:39Is it?
12:43Felix, Peggy, it's murder.
12:46You know what to do.
12:49Mind the camera!
12:50What the hell?
12:55What on earth is this?
13:02Sister?
13:04Sister?
13:04What is it?
13:06A fingerprint?
13:07Uh, no, no.
13:09It seems our killer had presence of mind to wipe those away.
13:12However, their waxy weapon remains illuminating.
13:16Have a look at this.
13:18They left their mark in the wax?
13:20An indentation containing form and detail, hitherto invisible to the human eye.
13:25By deduction, it was made as the killer gripped the candlestick holder to deliver the fatal blow.
13:31So it was something that they wore?
13:34Presumably on their wrist?
13:36Yes, precisely.
13:37Find that object and I'll catch our candlestick killer wax-handed.
13:41Ruth may have something.
13:42That was quick.
13:43Well, Norman was already putting together materials on Lynn and Ronnie.
13:47He was willing to share for a favour.
13:49Oh, you may owe him a date, Peggy.
13:51Oh, thanks a bunch.
13:55So, what we know.
13:57Sister Helena used to be a resident at St Vincent's.
14:00What we didn't know, she used to teach at a local Catholic school called St Peter's.
14:05Sister success.
14:07St Peter's pupil wins national essay competition.
14:10She was scary even back then.
14:12Look at the girl.
14:13Wait, is that...
14:18Oh, no.
14:20Sister Helena was the teacher who made your life a living hell.
14:25When I saw her this morning, just...
14:28standing there,
14:30it all came flooding back to me.
14:33The humiliating, goading,
14:37demanding things of me I could never deliver.
14:39Did you speak to her, Lorne?
14:44It's too late for lies, Lynn.
14:47I wanted her to know what she'd done to me.
14:50I felt this urge.
14:54When I did, it was so odd.
14:55Ah, I wondered when you might muster the courage to speak.
15:06That's right, Lynn.
15:08I remember you.
15:10You have no idea how unhappy you made me.
15:17No idea.
15:19I'm afraid it was a habit of mine.
15:21And I was always hardest on my favourites.
15:25Those girls who I could imagine achieving great things.
15:30Going to the world with just the right amount of push.
15:34Look at you now.
15:35Leader of the council.
15:36Holding your own in a man's world.
15:39Shaping your community.
15:41We may not agree on how,
15:43but I have to say,
15:45I'm proud of you.
15:47I always wondered where I'd got my resilience from.
15:54Maybe it was her all along.
15:57After that,
15:58I walked around outside,
16:01a bit dazed.
16:02I did hear raised voices,
16:05but I couldn't tell you who.
16:06The War of Roses did good times bring.
16:13There was Henry VII,
16:14our new Tudor king.
16:17And a theatre,
16:19and a poetry,
16:21to prick a tear,
16:22courtesy of our bard,
16:24Mr William Shakespeare.
16:28I'm so sorry.
16:29Not at all, Your Highness.
16:32It's terribly heavy.
16:34Oh, for goodness sake,
16:35could you just keep going?
16:37Am I still sparkle, larkle?
16:39Of course you're still dead, Tom.
16:41You've got an arrow through your head.
16:43Sister Peter,
16:44could you please
16:45stop wielding that broadsword?
16:47Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
16:48Mrs Clam,
16:50where on earth
16:51do you think you are going?
16:53I am going
16:54to divest myself
16:55of this ridiculous costume.
16:57It's extremely cumbersome.
17:00And besides,
17:00I have to be back at the office
17:02for the last post.
17:03No, you do not.
17:06People, please,
17:08please, people,
17:09can we just get
17:11the last stanza right?
17:13The symbolic passing
17:15of the key.
17:16Are you ready,
17:17Reverend Mother?
17:18I would hope so.
17:20Ahem.
17:21No longer a convent,
17:23but what?
17:24Ha, ha, ha, ha.
17:25We shall see.
17:27It is time for the sisters
17:30to pass on the key.
17:40Reverend Mother.
17:43To pass on the key.
17:46Let go.
17:50Perhaps we should leave
17:53this bit for tomorrow.
18:04Sister,
18:05Lynn Goodwin's bracelet.
18:07Aunt,
18:08no one witnessed
18:08her walking outside yesterday.
18:10But we've still no idea
18:11who the raised voices
18:12belong to.
18:13Well,
18:14I have a feeling
18:15my little putty pattern
18:16might get us close.
18:20Now,
18:21I wouldn't bet
18:21the convent on it,
18:22but I think
18:24this has the appearance
18:25of Guramuki's script.
18:26Possibly Sikh.
18:27That could make sense.
18:29We found something
18:30in the convent records.
18:31Remember how
18:32Ronnie Panasar
18:32said his mum
18:33was taken from him?
18:34That's right.
18:35Seduced by weird
18:36religious type.
18:37Right, well,
18:37look at this.
18:39A file on a young woman
18:41who was brought
18:41into St. Vincent's
18:42by Sister Helena.
18:44And her name
18:45was Rand Panasar.
18:47Excellent word,
18:48Barton.
18:49Right,
18:49I'm going to go
18:49and talk to Ronnie.
18:50Inspector,
18:51given that I remember
18:53the specifics
18:54of the case,
18:55it might be wise
18:56if I join you.
18:57Follow me!
18:59Right,
19:00sister.
19:03Moving to England.
19:05A mixed-race family.
19:06took its toll
19:08on mum
19:08and you lot
19:10took advantage
19:11of her.
19:13So this is about
19:14revenge
19:15against Sister Helena?
19:16Revenge?
19:17I just wanted
19:18to turn that stain
19:19of a convent
19:20into something
19:21that helps families,
19:22not tear them apart.
19:24Mr Panasar,
19:25I was here
19:27when they brought
19:28your mother in.
19:29I can't imagine
19:30how hard it was
19:32for you.
19:32No?
19:34Then let me tell you.
19:36I woke up
19:37to a mum
19:37just gone.
19:39No contact allowed,
19:40no letters allowed.
19:42I'm afraid
19:43that's not true.
19:45No,
19:45my dad told me.
19:46You cut us off.
19:47Sister Helena
19:49brought your mother
19:50to St. Vincent's
19:51because she had
19:52been hospitalised.
19:54Hospital?
19:55Who by?
19:57Your father, dear.
19:58I'm so sorry,
20:02but
20:02the marriage
20:04was a violent one.
20:07Your mother
20:08was terrified.
20:09She tried
20:10to take you
20:11with her,
20:11but
20:12he threatened her.
20:16All St. Vincent's
20:18did
20:18was give her
20:19refuge
20:19until she could
20:21get back
20:22to family
20:22in India.
20:23He said
20:24she was up north,
20:25that she wouldn't
20:26speak to us.
20:28I need to
20:29cross-check,
20:30but the match
20:30is far from perfect.
20:32When did you realise
20:34that it was
20:34Sister Helena
20:35that took her in?
20:36I didn't,
20:37not until now.
20:39Then
20:39what was the argument
20:40about it?
20:41Lynn Goodwin
20:42said she heard
20:42raised voices.
20:44Whoever those
20:44voices were,
20:46they were nothing
20:46to do with me.
20:49Another dead end.
20:50Did Sister Helena's
20:51photographs give us
20:52anything else to work with?
20:53They're mostly just
20:54shots of the altar.
20:55She took rather a shine
20:56to this bronze plaque.
20:58This inscription,
21:00St. Vincent's
21:01convent,
21:01doors always open
21:02to those in need.
21:04Here there is goodness.
21:05Here there is goodness.
21:06In plain sight.
21:12Can the ransacking
21:13of this hell-old place
21:15not wait until tomorrow?
21:16The rivets were
21:17already loose.
21:18Sister Helena
21:19was hunting for something,
21:21and I dare say
21:22she found it.
21:31Wax seal
21:32recently broken.
21:36Sister Helena
21:36took what was inside?
21:38Or
21:38our killer.
21:40This jar
21:41was hastily replaced
21:42after the murder,
21:43so
21:43lady logic implies
21:45whatever was inside
21:46was relevant.
21:47How long
21:48has the plaque been there?
21:49It was put up
21:50in memory of the late Earl
21:52by his family
21:52when he passed on
21:53some six months ago.
21:55You're sure?
21:56Certain.
21:56Poor man.
21:57We hadn't seen him
21:58for weeks.
21:58He was very ill.
21:59Could this be something
22:00that affects
22:01the building development?
22:03Possibly.
22:03It still implicates
22:04both suspects.
22:05Lim would lose
22:06her entire career
22:07and Ronnie
22:07his investments.
22:09Of course.
22:10There is one other person
22:12who might have known
22:13about this.
22:15She's right.
22:17Well, I do believe
22:17it's cocktail hour.
22:21So you knew
22:22there was a capsule
22:22behind the plaque?
22:24Absolutely.
22:25I was the one
22:25who had it put there.
22:27Father's
22:27dying wish.
22:29And you can tell us
22:30what was inside?
22:32You're lucky
22:33I can speak at all
22:34after these whiskies.
22:37He said it was
22:38a photograph of him
22:38as a boy
22:39on the day
22:41of his confirmation
22:41at the chapel.
22:42So
22:43he would remain
22:45part of St. Vincent's.
22:46but
22:48the jar
22:49was already sealed
22:50so I never
22:51saw inside.
22:53Are you thinking
22:54it's
22:54something that
22:55could help us?
22:56I'm thinking
22:57how desperately
22:59you need this
23:00sale to go through.
23:04Miss Penny
23:05I can't deny
23:07enjoying your company
23:08but your subtext
23:09leaves something
23:10to be desired.
23:11Your father
23:11left you with debt
23:12yet
23:13my editor
23:14in London
23:15tells me
23:15that after he died
23:16you were quite
23:17the man about town.
23:21Circumstances change.
23:23Is that
23:23what your argument
23:24with Sister Helena
23:25was about?
23:26Lynn Goodwin
23:27heard raised voices.
23:31It was you.
23:35I didn't want
23:36everyone to know.
23:37I
23:37I
23:37I
23:38I
23:38I
23:38I
23:38I
23:39I
23:39I
23:41I
23:41I
23:41I
23:41I
23:41I
23:41I
23:43I
23:43went to smooth
23:44things over.
23:46Miss Goodwin
23:47and Mr.
23:48Panassar
23:48are only trying
23:49to keep things
23:49on track.
23:50They both
23:51have much
23:52to lose.
23:53You wish to talk
23:54of loss
23:55whilst casting
23:56the sisters
23:57asunder.
23:58What?
23:59Do you think
23:59I want this?
24:01Do you think
24:01I somehow
24:02enjoy it?
24:03My father
24:04left me crushed
24:05under impossible debt
24:07with no choices.
24:08None.
24:09I didn't even
24:10get a chance
24:10to grieve
24:11because right
24:12away I was
24:13forced to be
24:13the villain
24:13or become
24:14the earl
24:14who brought
24:15down his
24:16family.
24:17I knew
24:18your father.
24:20In his last
24:20correspondence
24:21to me
24:22he told me
24:22he'd made
24:23provision
24:23to avoid
24:24this.
24:26And I
24:26know
24:27that the
24:28Sedgwick
24:28family estate
24:29was in
24:30fine fettle
24:31until your
24:32father died.
24:33It took
24:33one Lord
24:34Matthew
24:35Sedgwick
24:36to bring
24:36us all
24:37to this.
24:38Is this
24:40true?
24:41My father
24:42was no
24:42J.P.
24:43Morgan
24:43but he
24:44was a
24:44man of
24:45faith
24:45and he
24:45balanced
24:45his books.
24:49I can
24:49claim
24:50neither.
24:51I
24:52lost
24:54everything
24:54on the
24:56stock
24:56exchange.
25:01What did
25:01Sister
25:02Helena mean
25:02when she
25:03said your
25:04father made
25:04provisions?
25:07I don't
25:07know.
25:08but if
25:10there's
25:10some
25:11secret
25:11pot
25:11of
25:11money

33:31town

35:09it's my great pleasure
35:11it's my great pleasure to give you lord adam sedgwick towers
35:15oh look at that that's a future
35:19heavens above

35:28adam sedgwick towers is not just a development
35:32it's a passion project
35:35a step into the future
35:37in the future
35:38in this era of prosperity
35:39in this era of prosperity and progress
35:40our aim is to keep the spirit of St.
35:42Vincent
35:42convent alive
35:43while providing much needed accommodation for the area
35:46impressive
35:47isn't it
35:50using your car to arrive at the police station
35:53before sister peter when she brought me the note
35:56made it seem almost impossible that you could have committed the murder
36:01even though
36:02even though
36:02you did
36:03this
36:03are you out of your mind
36:06our apartments are
36:08generous
36:09modern
36:10and
36:11aspirational
36:13when you placed that capsule behind the plaque
36:15you had no idea it contained something to save St. Vincent's
36:19but with sister helena's remarks
36:21you knew
36:22you'd sealed your own fate
36:23all I knew
36:25was the nonsense she spouted when I confronted her
36:29it took one lord Matthew Sedgwick to bring us all to this
36:34the man who found out that his father
36:37planned to bequeath the convent to the sisters
36:41so he cut him off from the world
36:44no more solicitors
36:46no more pastoral visits
36:47no more letters on the subject
36:49but
36:50you failed to spot his code to me in his final correspondence
36:55find proof
36:58in saccello
37:00in conspectu
37:03and find it
37:05I have
37:06what have you found
37:08where is it
37:10tell me
37:12in saccello
37:17in conspectu
37:19it's a bluff
37:21there's nothing to find
37:24well then why did you ransack her room this morning
37:26imagine waking to the views from your 12th wind
37:29you had no proof
37:29you're trying to shame me
37:32to stop me leaving my mark
37:34no that's just the problem lord
37:36you did leave your mark
37:38the signet ring that you usually wear on your right hand
37:42a wax letter seal
37:44that leaves the imprint of your family crest
37:46photographs show you were wearing it on the day of the murder
37:49my guess is
37:52you found remnants of wax
37:54and then removed it
37:56a forensic confession
37:59signed and sealed
38:01sealed
38:02literally
38:03tell me
