00:03:55Places almost deserve them by the time I got here.

00:03:58Any witnesses?

00:03:59Not really.

00:04:00Probably these guys.

00:04:02They haven't another planet.

00:04:05Right.

00:04:06Let's get the dogs in.

00:04:07See if it's the place for drugs.

00:04:29Hey, hey.

00:04:54Come on.

00:04:57Oh, my God.

00:05:27Oh, my God.

00:05:57His name's Scott Graham. He's a builder's labourer from Shorelands.

00:06:02He was also a drug addict.

00:06:04Figures.

00:06:05And a practising homosexual.

00:06:08Well, takes all kinds.

00:06:11Drugs or the fall?

00:06:13The fall.

00:06:14Pushed or did he jump?

00:06:16He probably flew the amount of drugs he consumed.

00:06:19Oh, my God.

00:06:48sorry to be such a nuisance you're not the first middle-aged man to come in here suffering from a

00:07:15mild heart attack middle-aged you're very kind right mr. McVitie any idea what brought this on heated

00:07:30argument then I felt this tremendous pain in the chest and that was that I think it frightened Jim

00:07:37more than it frightened me Jim Jim Taggart my chief inspector the person you had the argument with

00:07:43yes he held these very passionate views on this pure heroine that's being sold on the street

00:07:48more deaths are caused by heart attacks mr. McVitie you're gonna have to change your lifestyle I'm

00:07:54afraid oh and then steer clear of argumentative chief inspectors for a while

00:08:01I have no comment

00:08:22I have no comment

00:08:52We found traces of drugs. Nothing substantial.

00:08:57Have we all harmed you?

00:08:59Apparently Scott Graham was knocking back everything on offer.

00:09:03Brains completely fried.

00:09:04My boyfriend?

00:09:05No idea. Everyone was totally stoned out of their minds.

00:09:15About the party.

00:09:17What's this around? Must have been a few gate crashes.

00:09:23They usually leave via the window.

00:09:29Who's your dealer?

00:09:37Get my doctor there.

00:09:47Jack.

00:09:53I was on my way to see you. Heard about your problem over the car radio.

00:09:58It's a little embarrassing.

00:10:00Yes, well...

00:10:02You won't be long, will you?

00:10:03Two minutes.

00:10:06I've spoken to the doctor, Jack, knowing how long these things can take.

00:10:10I hope you're to be on my feet in a few weeks.

00:10:12I think you're being somewhat optimistic.

00:10:18In the circumstances, I feel we must have someone at the helm.

00:10:23Someone to man the ship.

00:10:25Aye.

00:10:27I'm going to recommend that Taggart be made acting superintendent in your place.

00:10:30Not the perfect choice, I know, Jack, but we haven't got anybody else available at the moment.

00:10:36Still, a few strategy meetings at headquarters should keep him out of your head.

00:10:47The superintendent McVitie's had a heart attack. He's in hospital.

00:10:57A heart attack?

00:10:58Sometime this morning, that's all I know.

00:11:00For the hell of a row we tag her over this heroin problem.

00:11:04Who's on the card?

00:11:05I've been trying to get hold of Mrs McVitie. She doesn't know about it.

00:11:08You leave that to G.S. Reid. Carry on with the murder inquiry.

00:11:12I haven't been to bed yet.

00:11:15You just show a bit of enthusiasm, eh?

00:11:19If you're looking for Mr. Taggart, he's not here.

00:11:23He's been summoned to headquarters.

00:11:25He's been made acting superintendent.

00:11:35Do you know where she is?

00:12:02No.

00:12:03No.

00:12:05No, it's all right.

00:12:06Yeah, I'm sorry if I bothered you.

00:12:10I can't get hold of Mrs McVitie.

00:12:12I've tried everywhere.

00:12:13Tried the Beirsten Arts Centre?

00:12:15Arts Centre?

00:12:16That's where you'll find her.

00:12:18How do you know that?

00:12:33Hello?

00:12:34Yes.

00:12:35Mrs McVitie?

00:12:36Hello?

00:12:37Mrs McVitie?

00:12:38Yes.

00:12:39Detective Sergeant Reid, Maryhill Police.

00:12:40Yes.

00:12:41Mrs McVitie, your husband's been taken to the Glasgow Infirmary.

00:12:44The Infirmary?

00:12:45The Infirmary?

00:12:46We believe he suffered a heart attack.

00:12:47What?

00:12:48What happened?

00:12:49Well, I understand he was having a slight argument with Mr. Taggart when...

00:12:50An argument?

00:12:51Well, I'm sorry.

00:12:52That was probably the wrong choice of words.

00:12:54Mrs McVitie?

00:12:55That was probably the wrong choice of words.

00:12:56Mrs McVitie?

00:12:57Yes.

00:12:58Yes.

00:12:59Mrs McVitie, your husband's been taken to the Glasgow Infirmary.

00:13:02The Infirmary?

00:13:03We believe he suffered a heart attack.

00:13:08What...

00:13:09What happened?

00:13:11Well, I understand he was having a slight argument with Mr. Taggart when...

00:13:15An argument?

00:13:16I'm sorry.

00:13:17That...

00:13:18That was probably the wrong choice of words.

00:13:21Mrs McVitie?

00:13:24Hello?

00:13:44If the subcontractors can't deliver on time, then we get a local firm.

00:13:47I don't care.

00:13:48My main concern is that this section is finished by the 4th of next month.

00:13:54He's at the table.

00:13:55My apologies.

00:13:56Stuart, don't forget we got that bloody Chinese delegation for you any day now.

00:13:57You sort something out, weren't you?

00:14:11It was an important meeting, Harry.

00:14:14My car was stolen last night.

00:14:15I've been to the police station.

00:14:17We should have been here.

00:14:18Day, date, time, and time.

00:14:48Please. I mean, it's simple enough, isn't it?

00:14:50I have been up all night, sir.

00:14:51Yeah, well, don't let it happen again.

00:14:54That's for you.

00:14:58Yeah, Jarden?

00:15:00Yeah.

00:15:01Go home and get a few hours sleepy.

00:15:03Where?

00:15:06Yeah, we'll be right there.

00:15:18Savagely beaten with a blunt instrument.

00:15:41Was she dead before being dumped in the river?

00:15:43Almost certainly.

00:15:45Anything else?

00:15:46I would say she'd had rather a hard life, Michael.

00:15:50Hard life?

00:15:51Scars, some of which had received rather crude medical attention.

00:15:56The most recent stab wound, I'd say.

00:16:03Anna Pulaski.

00:16:04Polish.

00:16:12Detective Inspector Jarden.

00:16:14Yes?

00:16:14It's Anna Pulaski.

00:16:16She's not in at the moment.

00:16:17If you want to leave a message...

00:16:18Are you a friend of hers?

00:16:20A neighbour.

00:16:21She was found murdered this morning.

00:16:23Anna!

00:16:24Could we have a look at her flat?

00:16:25Yeah.

00:16:45You shouldn't let him bully you.

00:16:47It's not Jim's fault.

00:16:50Could have happened at any time.

00:16:52That's not what I was told, Jack.

00:16:54Oh, please, Marjorie.

00:16:56That's enough.

00:17:05I have to get to college.

00:17:06Who are the others?

00:17:23Don't know.

00:17:24Miss Pollitt, we'd like you to identify the body later.

00:17:27I didn't really know her that well.

00:17:28We have to make sure the body we have is Anna's.

00:17:30But the photograph...

00:17:32We have to be seen.

00:17:32Yeah.

00:17:36Just concern yourself with getting better.

00:17:39Forget about Jim Taggart.

00:17:41Jim and I are old friends.

00:17:44Could I have a word, please, Mrs. McVitie?

00:17:57Mrs. McVitie, your husband needs peace and quiet.

00:18:02He will be all right.

00:18:04I need to do some tests.

00:18:05However, I would suggest that any visits be kept to a minimum.

00:18:09Particularly from his colleagues.

00:18:11What was that chief inspector's name?

00:18:13You mean Taggart?

00:18:15Yes.

00:18:15Especially Taggart.

00:18:20Good morning, Joan.

00:18:22Mrs. McVitie.

00:18:23This is a surprise.

00:18:25I'm sorry about it.

00:18:26So am I.

00:18:27I do hope he's going to be all right.

00:18:29Early days, Joan.

00:18:30Well, we are all going to miss him.

00:18:32I've come to collect his personal things.

00:18:34Oh, of course.

00:18:35Go right in.

00:18:39She has no relations as far as we know.

00:18:41We've got a Polish community in Glasgow, have we not?

00:18:44Yes, sir.

00:18:47What have you done sitting in my husband's chair?

00:18:50Marjorie.

00:18:51I've been made acting superintendent.

00:18:53You just couldn't wait, could you?

00:18:55Who is it, Marjorie?

00:18:56You've always been jealous of Jack.

00:18:58If the truth be known, you engineered this.

00:19:05Hey, Marjorie.

00:19:07Hello.

00:19:08Hello, Jean.

00:19:08Do you want the good news first?

00:19:10What's happened?

00:19:11I've been made acting superintendent.

00:19:13Wonderful.

00:19:14Oh, well done.

00:19:15You deserve it, Jim.

00:19:15Well, Marjorie McVitie doesn't think so.

00:19:17Marjorie McVitie doesn't think so.

00:19:18Marjorie McVitie doesn't think so.

00:19:19No matter what.

00:19:25Hello.

00:19:25Hello, Jean.

00:19:28Do you want the good news first?

00:19:29What's happened?

00:19:30I've been made acting super intended.

00:19:32Wonderful.

00:19:33Oh, well done.

00:19:34You deserve it, Jim.

00:19:35Well, Marjorie McVitie doesn't think so.

00:19:36Marjorie.

00:19:37I don't understand.

00:19:40Oh, well done. You deserve it, Jim.

00:19:43Well, Marjorie McVitie doesn't think so.

00:19:45Marjorie? Oh, I don't understand.

00:19:48Jean, here's the bad news.

00:19:50I've been promoted because Jack has suffered a heart attack.

00:19:54Oh, dear.

00:19:55Oh, poor Jack. Is he going to be all right?

00:19:57Oh, aye.

00:19:59I don't know if I'll survive it, but listen, Jean,

00:20:02I want you to do me a favour.

00:20:10Oh, my God.

00:20:40I don't think I can go through with this.

00:20:51Oh, dear.

00:20:55How can I help you?

00:20:57Does the name Anna Pulaski ring a bell?

00:20:59Anna Pulaski?

00:21:02No.

00:21:04She was found dead this morning.

00:21:06She'd been murdered.

00:21:07Poor Roman.

00:21:08I think originally she came from Gdansk.

00:21:12I know every Polish family in Glasgow.

00:21:18I never heard of Anna Pulaski.

00:21:21Is that strange?

00:21:21Ah, well, as I do not know of her,

00:21:26when she didn't want to be known,

00:21:30Paul.

00:21:31Such a miracle.

00:21:32Paul, let me introduce you to, uh,

00:21:35Jackie.

00:21:36Hello.

00:21:37Paul came over from Poland,

00:21:39especially for Maria's wedding.

00:21:42It's nice to meet you.

00:21:43Paul comes from Gdansk.

00:21:46Would you like to dance?

00:21:48Why not?

00:21:49Come on.

00:21:59What could she possibly have done to deserve that?

00:22:03Would you take me home?

00:22:05I'm sorry.

00:22:07I'm rather busy.

00:22:08I'll get you a car if you want.

00:22:10No, it's all right.

00:22:19Give us a ring if you remember anything.

00:22:20I know this is a million to one chance,

00:22:30but do you happen to know a girl

00:22:31by the name of Anna Pulaski?

00:22:33From Gdansk?

00:22:34Her body was dragged out of the river this morning.

00:22:37She'd been murdered.

00:22:38These are terrible times.

00:22:41Would you like me?

00:22:50to make inquiries when I return?

00:22:53I have connections.

00:22:55Yes, why not?

00:22:56Good.

00:22:57You return my favourite, Jackie.

00:23:00Like what?

00:23:02Oh, you come to the party with me tonight.

00:23:04What party?

00:23:06Family.

00:23:07Polish people are great ones for celebrations.

00:23:10I don't know.

00:23:12I'll pick you up at eight.

00:23:14Well, think about it.

00:23:20Did you tell them anything?

00:23:44What could I tell them?

00:23:49It's going to cost more.

00:23:52Who cares?

00:23:53Just keep it coming.

00:23:54Fergus!

00:23:56And?

00:23:57I hope you don't talk in your sleep.

00:23:59I never sleep.

00:24:00Lorie.

00:24:14Lorie.

00:24:17Lorie!

00:24:18It's going to help me, Lori.

00:24:20It's going to help me, please!

00:24:30Oh

00:25:00Any luck?

00:25:03No, not really

00:25:04How about you?

00:25:06Ellen Pollock identifies Anna

00:25:07Top brass?

00:25:10Maybe they've given Taggart a chauffeur

00:25:17Jordan, Reid, come in

00:25:19Close the door

00:25:21Just popped in to see how you're coping

00:25:27Well, sir, with Superintendent McVitie in hospital and DCI Taggart

00:25:32This murder investigation appears to be painfully slow

00:25:34We are having difficulty establishing a motive, sir

00:25:39That in turn has made the investigation more complex

00:25:41I don't want excuses

00:25:43No, sir

00:25:44I want results

00:25:46This is a chance for you to shine, Jordan

00:25:48Yes, sir

00:25:50What about you, Reid? Are you up to it?

00:25:53I've always carried out my duties to the best of my ability, sir

00:25:58This investigation reflects on us at headquarters

00:26:05I'm sure you appreciate that

00:26:06Yes, sir

00:26:08Very well, carry on

00:26:11Yes, sir

00:26:12Thank you

00:26:23What a cheek

00:26:24When was the last time he investigated a murder?

00:26:28Forget it

00:26:29He's got nothing better to do

00:26:30Forget it?

00:26:32Like water off a duck's back

00:26:34Well, that's him scrubbed off the Christmas card list

00:26:38An MGB similar to yours was parked outside the block of flats

00:26:46If you weren't at the party, then I would like to interview you

00:26:49Tomorrow then

00:26:50At 3.30, thank you

00:26:53I've collated mixing colours of vehicles parked in the area at the time

00:26:56Over a few registration numbers, which may or may not be correct

00:27:00Keep trying

00:27:00There's a black taxi mentioned here

00:27:04Yeah, that's right

00:27:05Mrs. Lee Archibald?

00:27:08Yes

00:27:09Mrs. Archibald, this is at DC Gibson, Maryhill Police Station

00:27:13Yes

00:27:14Mrs. Archibald, you own a Golf GTI

00:27:17Yes

00:27:18Could you tell me where it was parked last evening about 11.30?

00:27:22No

00:27:23My husband borrowed it

00:27:25He's had his Mercedes broken into you so many times

00:27:28Erm, can you tell me where I can get in touch with your husband?

00:27:31Why?

00:27:32A routine inquiry

00:27:33Well, I'll get him to call you as soon as he comes in

00:27:37I'll have my husband call you as soon as he gets home, officer

00:27:43The black taxi

00:27:44Oh, one of the witnesses said he thinks the guy pushing drugs at the party was a cabbie

00:27:48Why would a witness say that?

00:27:50Because the guy drove a taxi

00:27:51Well, you would, wouldn't you?

00:27:54We found this photo at the dead girl's flat

00:27:56If that's the same taxi

00:28:02We've got a connection with Scott Graham's death

00:28:04Check out licensed cab drivers

00:28:07They all have their photographs and their applications, don't they?

00:28:09Yeah, sure

00:28:10Thank you

00:28:12Please don't stay too long

00:28:22Jean!

00:28:26I didn't know what to bring you

00:28:28I thought they may have put you on a diet or something

00:28:31Oh, God knows, I could use words

00:28:33Thank you, Jean

00:28:35Oh, glad to see you're all right

00:28:37Well, that's the sort of thing that happens to other people, never to yourself

00:28:41Yes

00:28:42Jim was very cut up about it

00:28:45What happened, the way it happened

00:28:47You tell him not to worry

00:28:49Marjorie

00:28:52I suppose you're here making excuses for your husband

00:28:55Well, you know me better than that

00:28:57Now it is

00:28:58I've always known Jim envied Jackie's promotion

00:29:00But I never expected such underhandedness

00:29:03That's not true

00:29:04Ladies, please

00:29:05Jim has his faults

00:29:18But no matter how much he loves his job

00:29:21He would never sacrifice friendship for promotion

00:29:23I'm sorry, but I must ask the both of you to leave

00:29:27Look what you've done

00:29:34I can't even visit my own husband now

00:29:36Perhaps it's for the best

00:29:37What do you mean by that?

00:29:38Don't be so silly, Marjorie

00:29:40You haven't heard the last of this

00:29:42No, I'm sure we haven't

00:29:45No, there's nothing here

00:29:49I've gone through the index on the previous three drug-related deaths

00:29:55There's no sign of a black cab

00:29:57Go back to 91

00:30:01You after a transfer?

00:30:07Oh, I'm impressed

00:30:08So you should be

00:30:09DC's appraisal interview

00:30:12Tag up

00:30:13Oh dear

00:30:14Rory McLeod, ex-university

00:30:17Was expelled for possession of drugs

00:30:19Drives an old black taxi

00:30:21There's no present address

00:30:22Information came through the collator

00:30:25I checked with them

00:30:26Believed assault on a girl with a knife two weeks ago

00:30:28Dr Andrews mentioned that Anna had a recent scar

00:30:32We've got them

00:30:34I've had these calculations checked

00:30:37We need to change the connection detail

00:30:40Yes?

00:30:48Where were you last night?

00:30:50What's the matter?

00:30:51The police have been making inquiries

00:30:53What sort of inquiries?

00:30:56They didn't say

00:30:57What have you been up to, Sam?

00:30:59Nothing, I swear

00:31:00I hope you haven't been getting up to your old tricks again

00:31:04Darling

00:31:05I was with Harry

00:31:06Must be some mistake

00:31:08Well, I hope for your sake there is

00:31:09Darling

00:31:10I told the police you'd contact them

00:31:14Harry

00:31:22I want you to do me a big favour

00:31:28What's the police, you say?

00:31:34Anna Pulaski

00:31:35P-A-L-E-S, I remember

00:31:38She discharged herself

00:31:40Discharged herself?

00:31:42Didn't want to get involved with the police

00:31:44Something that's stemmed back to her childhood in Poland

00:31:46That's strange

00:31:49Strange?

00:31:51The particulars are not on the computer

00:31:53Perhaps somebody slipped up

00:31:55No

00:31:56No

00:31:58No, I entered them in myself

00:31:59No

00:32:26Doctor, sorry to trouble you

00:32:28What is it now, sister?

00:32:30Do you remember a Polish girl brought in a few weeks ago suffering from a stab wound?

00:32:34Why?

00:32:35Her details have been erased from the computer

00:32:37There must be a mistake

00:32:39I've checked

00:32:41I wondered if we could have a look at your notes

00:32:43We?

00:32:45Detective Sergeant Reed, Maryhill Police Station

00:32:47This is highly irregular

00:32:51Yeah?

00:32:54Both the hospital and the doctor's records are missing

00:33:02Missing?

00:33:04It's as if Anna Pulaski never existed

00:33:06Somebody must have remembered something

00:33:08The hospital sister remembers the night that Anna was brought in with the stab wound

00:33:12Anna said something

00:33:14That she feared the police more than she feared her attacker

00:33:17The sister got the impression it was something that stemmed from her childhood

00:33:21Have you checked with the police community?

00:33:24Nothing

00:33:24Although

00:33:26Although what?

00:33:29Nothing

00:33:30Was it possible she was at the party?

00:33:38Her name hasn't come up

00:33:39But we know for certain that McLeod was there

00:33:41Yeah

00:33:42I wonder if there was time

00:33:45Time for him to leave the party and kill Anna?

00:33:50Hmm

00:33:50Yes, that's possible

00:33:53Thank you

00:33:54Thank you

00:33:55Thank you

00:33:56Thank you

00:33:57Thank you

00:33:58Thank you

00:34:19Thank you

00:34:20Thank you

00:34:21Thank you

00:34:22All right, let's go.

00:34:52The first day of baking soda is turned off.

00:34:55The oven is filled with the whole house of baking soda and butter.

00:35:01I only use baking soda but not to be able to cook the bath.

00:35:07The food is not just smoking soda.

00:35:10The decipher is a little better.

00:35:15The glass is more efficient and fancy than just eating.

00:35:19Anybody I know?

00:35:25Shouldn't think so.

00:35:27Any luck?

00:35:29On MacLeod?

00:35:30Yeah.

00:35:32The Scarlet Pimpernel.

00:35:34We seek him here, we seek him there, we seek him every bloody way.

00:35:38Keep trying.

00:35:49Michael, what are you doing here?

00:35:55I just saw a pop on my way home.

00:35:58She certainly put up a struggle considering...

00:36:01Considering what?

00:36:04Considering she was pregnant.

00:36:08Pregnant?

00:36:09Nice trip.

00:36:21Let me go all right?

00:36:22No problem.

00:41:56Oh, my God.

00:42:26He was beaten up, left for dead.

00:42:31Another guy, a Samaritan who was traveling on the same road, saw him.

00:42:38And his heart was filled with pity.

00:42:40Don't eat me.

00:42:42I'm all right.

00:42:44You think you should go to hospital?

00:42:46I'm all right, man.

00:42:47God bless you.

00:42:55Naomi?

00:43:15Who's there?

00:43:32You've been me up for a couple of days.

00:43:43I've tried all kinds of indices.

00:43:52Social Security, Tax Office.

00:43:54They all come back the same.

00:43:55Address unknown.

00:43:57Someone's hiding them.

00:43:59Any joy with a taxi?

00:44:00It's not registered with the District Council.

00:44:02Look, I've got to admit, he's pretty smart.

00:44:09Jump in the cab, buy your smack, out at the next junction.

00:44:13Sent me has the edge over a street corner dealing.

00:44:16I've got to find out the identity of the other girl in that photo.

00:44:19I'd like to use the press.

00:44:20We'll have to ask Acting Superintendent Taggart's permission.

00:44:26DS Reed.

00:44:27Yes.

00:44:29We'll be right there.

00:44:35A girl's body's just been found in the river.

00:44:37Mr. Campbell, I must be honest with you.

00:44:49Second hip operation of your mother is out of the question.

00:44:52If it's a matter of money...

00:44:53Your mother is senile, Mr. Campbell.

00:44:55I must do what I can.

00:44:57She's been like this for nearly three years.

00:44:59Why put her through all that unnecessary pain

00:45:02when we both know she will not walk again?

00:45:22It's the other girl in the photograph.

00:45:24Died before she was dumped in the river.

00:45:30Weapon?

00:45:31Blunt instrument.

00:45:33Possibly a piece of hardwood.

00:45:36There were also minute samples of blood

00:45:38under the fingernails of the right hand.

00:45:41The killers?

00:45:42Well, possibly.

00:45:43She put up a desperate struggle.

00:45:45Nothing.

00:45:46Not even a bus ticket.

00:45:48This one's not pregnant.

00:45:50I'll let you know.

00:45:54The photograph connects the two girls

00:45:57and they've got the same M.O.

00:45:59If it is the killer's blood

00:46:00underneath the fingernails,

00:46:01then we're in business.

00:46:03Blood samples from every suspect.

00:46:05Every one.

00:46:06You never know what might turn up.

00:46:08And if they refuse?

00:46:10Well, they've got something to hide, haven't they?

00:46:14Got that.

00:46:15Yeah.

00:46:18The body in the river.

00:46:20We've got an identity of the prince.

00:46:22Well?

00:46:22Name's Lucy Ferguson.

00:46:24One previous conviction,

00:46:26short-lived in Aberdeen.

00:46:27Last known address at the Sandalwood Refuge.

00:46:30Do we know it?

00:46:32It's a kind of halfway house for women.

00:46:34Run by a priest.

00:46:35An evangelist.

00:46:52I'll try and hear.

00:47:14I'll try and hear.

00:47:14Can I help you?

00:47:38I'm Detective Inspector Jardin.

00:47:42I'd like to speak to someone

00:47:44regarding Lucy Ferguson.

00:47:47You better see Father Doyle.

00:47:49Go back to the Social Security office.

00:47:56Tell them you know Derek's last address.

00:48:00Play it cool.

00:48:01Don't blow your top this time.

00:48:05See you later, Janet.

00:48:06Let me know how you make out.

00:48:07This is Detective Inspector Jardin.

00:48:14It's about Lucy.

00:48:17Lucy.

00:48:19Lucy Ferguson.

00:48:29Not what you'd call a change of clothing?

00:48:31Lucy travelled light.

00:48:35She's not been here for a while, has she?

00:48:37The refuge is not a permanent address for any of us.

00:48:44Backpack.

00:48:45Did Lucy have her backpack with her?

00:48:49No, she didn't.

00:48:51Wouldn't go anywhere without it.

00:48:52It's part of the image, you see.

00:48:54A free spirit.

00:48:55What about boyfriends?

00:48:59I don't know his name.

00:49:01I think he might have driven a taxi for a living.

00:49:03We take in anyone.

00:49:06They're all God's children.

00:49:09I wish I could help you further, Inspector.

00:49:19Quite a few girls stay one night.

00:49:21Move on.

00:49:22Sure.

00:49:24I'll remember her.

00:49:26You don't keep a register?

00:49:28A register?

00:49:30I want to encourage the girls, officer,

00:49:32not drive them away.

00:49:46McLeod.

00:49:47We have got to find him.

00:49:48Maybe he's the father of Anna's baby.

00:49:50More than likely.

00:49:51The telephone number's in the wall.

00:49:59Wall?

00:49:59What wall?

00:50:00The hallway in Anna's flat.

00:50:02McLeod's number.

00:50:03It could be there.

00:50:18Hello?

00:50:21Hi.

00:50:25Mind if you come in?

00:50:26Uh, no.

00:50:33Some of these are so faint.

00:50:35Get the wall photographic sections.

00:50:37Have them blown up.

00:50:38Oh, damn!

00:50:41You're making a hard job of that.

00:50:42Yes.

00:50:43Yes, I am, aren't I?

00:50:45Rob.

00:50:46And he's a photographer.

00:50:47And I thought the days of chivalry were over.

00:50:50Did you get him to come to 14 Kilmer's Crescent?

00:50:52I usually get to help old ladies to cross the road.

00:50:55Don't get too many damsels in distress this side of Socky Hall Street.

00:50:59Yep, I'll hang on herey.

00:51:00Let me get this straight, sir.

00:51:12You didn't park your wife's car outside the apartment block in question.

00:51:16I told you.

00:51:17I was with a colleague from work.

00:51:18We were having a drink.

00:51:19The car was parked outside the public house.

00:51:21Nowhere near this block of flats you keep referring to.

00:51:23The car couldn't be in two places at once, Mr. Archibald.

00:51:26Obviously somebody's made a mistake or given you false information.

00:51:30What's the likelihood of two cars running around Glasgow with the same registration number?

00:51:35Are you 100% sure you have the right registration number?

00:51:39Officer, my job is civil engineering.

00:51:42I employ 800 people.

00:51:43I'm a very busy man.

00:51:44Now, if there are no more questions...

00:51:49The name of your colleague?

00:51:51The one who can verify your story?

00:51:53Harry Clyde.

00:51:54As in the river.

00:51:57As in the river.

00:52:24When I was in trouble, I called to the Lord.

00:52:30And he answered me.

00:52:32Oh, yes.

00:52:35He answered me.

00:52:36I said, Lord, save me from these liars and deceivers.

00:52:44Save me.

00:52:47Save me, Father.

00:52:48Place your soul in the Lord's care, my child.

00:53:07And it's easy, Father.

00:53:09Well, I must say, that was great.

00:53:29Wonderful.

00:53:30And we have had some great meals.

00:53:32What was the name of that restaurant, Harry?

00:53:35The one we never stopped talking about.

00:53:38Wolfgang.

00:53:39No, not Frankfurt.

00:53:40Krakow.

00:53:42This restaurant was used by the old communist regime.

00:53:46Well-kept secret.

00:53:47They treated us like royalty, didn't they, Harry?

00:53:49Yes.

00:53:50I reckon we must have boosted the Polish economy that night by at least 50%.

00:53:54Mind you, we did have something to celebrate.

00:53:58The company had just completed a $200 million oil refinery for the Polish government six months ahead of schedule.

00:54:03Darling, Susan was there.

00:54:05Why don't we trip the light fantastic?

00:54:11Oh, I'm sorry, Harry.

00:54:28If you keep doing that, we'll have no fired.

00:54:31Dead men's shoes.

00:54:33What in heaven's name are you talking about now?

00:54:35I don't want this promotion, Jean.

00:54:37It's only temporary.

00:54:39Why don't you sit back and enjoy it while you've got the chance?

00:54:44You don't understand.

00:54:46I understand, only too well.

00:54:49Michael and Jackie, they're quite capable, you know.

00:54:52I'm not so sure.

00:54:54You don't mean that.

00:54:59Jean, I've got this gut feeling.

00:55:00Something's wrong.

00:55:06All they need to be a bit of luck.

00:55:08Hiya.

00:55:27Hello, there.

00:55:29You all right?

00:55:30Must have been a valve.

00:55:32I'll give you a lift, Tom.

00:55:33There's never one around when you want them.

00:55:35You think it was the perfect relationship, wouldn't you?

00:55:55I don't really care.

00:56:02Sam's bisexual.

00:56:04You know that.

00:56:06Sam?

00:56:08I've covered up for him many times.

00:56:10Not Sam, surely.

00:56:12I feel sorry for Lee.

00:56:15She knows.

00:56:16He promised faithfully no more affairs.

00:56:22And so why are you telling me this?

00:56:27One of Sam's boyfriends died at a party the other night.

00:56:31Died?

00:56:33Police have been making inquiries.

00:56:36Sam wants me to give him an alibi.

00:56:37Only this time I'm not sure I'm doing the right thing.

00:56:43Oh, don't get involved, Harry.

00:56:45Please.

00:56:46I owe him.

00:56:49If Lee finds out the marriage is over,

00:56:52I can't let that happen.

00:56:58Of course, you were not in trouble, haven't I?

00:57:00No, that's okay.

00:57:03There you go.

00:57:05Would you like to come in?

00:57:07I've got to get back.

00:57:10I've got to go away for a few days.

00:57:12It's my parents' silver wedding in person.

00:57:14Perhaps when I come back?

00:57:16Perhaps.

00:57:17See you around, eh?

00:57:18Sam, let's split it.

00:57:37Certainly not.
