00:00:00Satsang with Mooji

00:00:30I don't know.

00:01:00I don't know.

00:01:30I don't know.

00:02:00I don't know.

00:02:29I'm just going to say, well, I know you need time, but I really would like to talk to you.

00:02:35Inspector Lindley?

00:02:36I might have suffered at the moment, but I'm on my mobile, so if you want to talk, and I hope you do, give me a call.

00:02:45Paula, good to see you again. What have we got?

00:02:47Bits and pieces.

00:02:47They dragged you up here because they thought this was the same as the Tottenham case.

00:02:52Yeah, supposedly.

00:02:54They're not even barking up the wrong tree. They're in the wrong forest.

00:02:58It's a shotgun, and she's blonde, but the way the body's been moved, it doesn't feel the same to me.

00:03:03Well, you got here very quickly.

00:03:06How's that when the call came through?

00:03:07Turning the candle at both ends.

00:03:09Something like that.

00:03:10Oi, Windy Miller, can I have everyone off the crime scene, please?

00:03:13Okay, love. That's me on me way.

00:03:15What did he call me?

00:03:16Not that way. This way. Back the way we've come.

00:03:19Come on, constable.

00:03:19He was the first on the scene. Garrett, one of Suffolk's finest. Probably got his bicycle park around the corner.

00:03:27Constable, did you see anything unusual this morning?

00:03:30Well, this whole thing's unusual for around here, sir.

00:03:32We've got traces of blood in the grass leaving from the house up to here.

00:03:37We've also got a few boot prints in some spilled sand up by the house. They're fresh, size 10.

00:03:43Can we tell her for where I was carrying anything?

00:03:45Well, the prints are slightly deeper than we'd expect, so I'd say there's a good chance, yeah.

00:03:48And she weighs nine stone?

00:03:50Whereabouts.

00:03:51Of course, if she was carried from the house, then there might be some fibres on her clothes.

00:03:56So, I put the egg in my mouth, and I just suck.

00:04:00Sorry, well, you know, you're more than welcome back in London any time.

00:04:03Oh, thank you. You've no idea how much I miss digging bullet fragments out of crack house walls.

00:04:09That's another blast from the past.

00:04:12I heard about the shooting. Is she all right now?

00:04:14Yeah, she is. She's fine.

00:04:18Hello, Barbara. How are you?

00:04:20Oh, Paula.

00:04:21Sir?

00:04:21Havers.

00:04:22I'm fine. Thanks, you?

00:04:24Well, one minute I'm giving a nice gentle lecture on the limited uses of vacuum metal deposition.

00:04:28The next, I'm watching a load of sheep warriors contaminate my crime scene.

00:04:32Same as everything.

00:04:33Solving murders would be an awful lot easier if you took the police out of the equation.

00:04:36Let me know when we're ready to move into the house, will you, Paula?

00:04:39Havers.

00:04:42Havers.

00:04:42The victim is Samantha Walthew, born Samantha Morgan, age 34, Major James Walthew, who's

00:04:52on his way up from London as we speak.

00:04:54He's a property developer. She was an interior designer.

00:04:57I bought this place about six months ago and turned into a fancy hotel.

00:05:00When was the body found?

00:05:02Uh, just before seven o'clock this morning.

00:05:04She was shot in the kitchen, and then her body was dumped out there.

00:05:06Uh, the murder weapon was a, uh, shotgun, but they haven't recovered it yet.

00:05:12Who found the body?

00:05:13Uh, a poacher by the name of Bob Harris.

00:05:17What?

00:05:18A poacher, Havers.

00:05:19That still goes on, does it?

00:05:21Oh, I'm afraid so, Havers. Yes, these are pleasant breeding grounds.

00:05:23Shooter season starts soon, so there's some rich pickings to be had.

00:05:27Charming.

00:05:28The killer didn't try to conceal the body.

00:05:30No.

00:05:31Either he or she was disturbed while moving it, or they didn't care whether it was found or not.

00:05:35And the poacher?

00:05:37That's where we're going now.

00:05:45Are you fighting fit?

00:05:47No, it's official. Do you feel comfortable being back?

00:05:50I'm fine.

00:05:51I'm sure you're fine.

00:05:53You got shot. It's a big deal.

00:05:58Big enough to get compensation.

00:06:00Really?

00:06:02You didn't tell me you'd applied.

00:06:03Well, I didn't know I had.

00:06:04They had me filling out so many forms, but I got late yesterday, and apparently it's coming through.

00:06:09Good for you.

00:06:11Can I ask...

00:06:12Sorry.

00:06:14It's none of my business.

00:06:16Ten grand.

00:06:16Ten thousand pounds?

00:06:19That's fantastic.

00:06:20What are you going to spend it on?

00:06:22I haven't given it much thought.

00:06:23I'll put it in savings.

00:06:25Not what I call the most exciting option.

00:06:27I mean, it's a windfall.

00:06:29It's free money, Havers.

00:06:30You should splash out on yourself.

00:06:33Um, maybe a cruise.

00:06:35Yep.

00:06:35Bingo.

00:06:37Ballroom dancing with people twice your age.

00:06:40Maybe.

00:06:42It's my money.

00:06:44Sorry.

00:06:45Yes.

00:06:46But look, if you do want a financial advisor, I can put you in touch with one.

00:06:50There are some very good ways to invest, you know.

00:06:51Of course I know who she was.

00:06:54Doing up the old priory so smart London types can spend a weekend gawping at locals.

00:06:59Kidding themselves to getting back to nature.

00:07:01What time was this, Mr Harris?

00:07:03Seven thereabouts.

00:07:04What were you doing there?

00:07:06Walking in.

00:07:07There's a law against that.

00:07:08There's a law against trespassing on private property.

00:07:10There's a public footpath.

00:07:12Half a mile from where the body was found.

00:07:14I got lost.

00:07:15I told this, the young lad took my statement.

00:07:17Now you're going over it again with us.

00:07:19This ain't the beat.

00:07:20Are you approaching, Mr Harris?

00:07:21No.

00:07:23What do you do for a living?

00:07:24Listen to that.

00:07:25You can't be more specific.

00:07:28I sign on.

00:07:29I do hard jobs.

00:07:30You can check with us socially if you've got nothing better to do.

00:07:32Do you run a shotgun?

00:07:34Yes, I do.

00:07:35And it's licensed.

00:07:37I've nothing to hide.

00:07:38Good.

00:07:39Then I'll get someone to take it away and we can examine it.

00:07:41We'd better get it back.

00:07:44Did you ever meet some other or few?

00:07:46No.

00:07:47No interest in meeting her.

00:07:49Never saw it already.

00:07:50London type, won't she?

00:07:52Thinks the countryside is some quaint tourist attraction.

00:07:56Come up there.

00:07:58Before you know it, local booze has become a non-smoking wine bar.

00:08:01Where were you last night?

00:08:05Queen's head till closing.

00:08:06I'll come home, watch some rubbish on telly, went to bed.

00:08:09Can anyone corroborate that?

00:08:11He can.

00:08:12Can't anyone speak dog.

00:08:13I'm the best of getting a murder, Mr. Harris.

00:08:18I don't appreciate sarcasm.

00:08:20I don't appreciate being called names like poacher.

00:08:22And I don't like having my private life poked around in.

00:08:28We may need to talk to you again.

00:08:30Are you going to be in the area for the next few days?

00:08:32No, I'm going to New York tomorrow on business.

00:08:41Mr. Wolfiuk?

00:08:44I'm Detective Inspector Linley.

00:08:45This is Detective Sergeant Havers.

00:08:46I would like to offer our condolences.

00:08:52However, we do have questions to ask.

00:08:57This was going to be the restaurant.

00:08:59She had big plans for it.

00:09:00She said it was going to be the best restaurant in East Anglia.

00:09:06Did she suffer?

00:09:09No, I'm sure it was very quick, sir.

00:09:13Do you know of anyone who might have had a reason?

00:09:16She was my wife.

00:09:18I thought she was part of my future.

00:09:22Everything is uncertain.

00:09:23You never really know anything that I thought she would be there.

00:09:31I understand that your wife grew up in the area.

00:09:35Yes, she did.

00:09:36She lived here until she went to university.

00:09:40That's where we met.

00:09:42Did she maintain any ties here?

00:09:44No, no, she didn't.

00:09:47Her parents emigrated to Australia when Sam left for uni.

00:09:50And yet you bought this house?

00:09:52It's business concerning it.

00:09:55But it wasn't just a coincidence.

00:09:57It was here.

00:09:58It didn't hurt that Sam knew the area,

00:09:59but it wasn't a major factor.

00:10:03Are you going to find who did this?

00:10:05Or was he pursuing all avenues of inquiry?

00:10:14Where were you last night?

00:10:17Am I an avenue of inquiry?

00:10:19I'm sorry, but I do need to ask these questions.

00:10:25I work late at my office.

00:10:30I must have got home about ten.

00:10:33I think I went to bed around midnight.

00:10:34You were alone at home?

00:10:38Yes.

00:10:40Did you talk to your wife last night, sir?

00:10:41We speak...

00:10:43Yeah.

00:10:45I spoke several times a day.

00:10:48Yes, she called me last night.

00:10:50About what time?

00:10:50It would have been 10.30, quarter to 11.

00:10:55How did she seem, sir?

00:10:59Stressed.

00:11:01That wasn't unusual for Sam.

00:11:04A project like this.

00:11:05And she was managing it on her own.

00:11:07It throws up all kinds of problems

00:11:08with builders and decorators and so on.

00:11:11She was camping out here

00:11:13to stay on top of everything.

00:11:15And that's what she was stressed about?

00:11:17Yes.

00:11:18I think so.

00:11:23She...

00:11:23She'd been quite distant

00:11:25the last few days.

00:11:28Distant?

00:11:29Why?

00:11:31I've no idea.

00:11:33Just, if something was bothering her,

00:11:34you'd be able to tell from her demeanour.

00:11:37But you'd never know what it was

00:11:38until she was ready to tell you.

00:11:40She was

00:11:44preoccupied with something more

00:11:47than work, I think.

00:11:52Thank you, sir.

00:11:59Ah, Inspector.

00:12:00We've just received something

00:12:01rather curious by email.

00:12:03It was sent anonymously

00:12:04to the local station

00:12:05and seems to have been

00:12:06taken on the grounds.

00:12:07Can you trace the sender?

00:12:08It was sent from an internet

00:12:10cath up at the town.

00:12:11Now, uniformer there

00:12:12checking to see

00:12:13if anyone remembers anything

00:12:14or if the sender

00:12:15was caught on CCTV.

00:12:16But you can get the date and time

00:12:17the image was taken

00:12:18from the file attachment,

00:12:19can't you?

00:12:203.07 yesterday afternoon.

00:12:22Now, if we found

00:12:23either the camera

00:12:23it was taken with

00:12:24or the computer

00:12:25that it was originally saved on,

00:12:27we could match them up conclusively.

00:12:29Can I keep this?

00:12:30Of course.

00:12:31I'll take it in copies.

00:12:32I'll just find it

00:12:32without manners.

00:12:33I'll see you've met

00:12:34my new geek.

00:12:36It's, um,

00:12:36tech specialist.

00:12:37It's okay, Simon.

00:12:38Some of my best friends

00:12:39are geeks.

00:12:40Can we do the walkthrough, Paula?

00:12:43It's fine.

00:12:56Family stamps

00:12:57by the look of it.

00:12:58This room's a goldmine.

00:13:00Tell me something.

00:13:01Where was the husband last night?

00:13:03He says he was in London.

00:13:04Okay.

00:13:05Good.

00:13:06Why?

00:13:07Without getting lurid,

00:13:08there's a wealth of DNA

00:13:09on these sheets.

00:13:11And even if there wasn't,

00:13:12someone left the toilet seat

00:13:13up in the bathroom.

00:13:15Your victim was having

00:13:16an affair, Inspector.

00:13:17Either that

00:13:18or the husband was lying.

00:13:19Anyway, he was here.

00:13:20Well, we're still lifting prints.

00:13:21We'll let you know

00:13:22if we get a match

00:13:22in the meantime.

00:13:27Dog hairs?

00:13:28Very good.

00:13:30Dog hairs.

00:13:31Not enough for there actually

00:13:32to have been a dog in here,

00:13:33but enough to have come

00:13:34from the clothes

00:13:35of someone who owns one

00:13:36or who's recently

00:13:37come into contact with one.

00:13:38We're looking for a dog owner

00:13:39in the countryside.

00:13:42Okay.

00:13:43So Samantha Wolf,

00:13:44who and her mystery man

00:13:45finished doing their business

00:13:46on the bed.

00:13:47What happens next?

00:13:50Do we know what happened to him?

00:13:51Not yet.

00:13:53Samantha's footprints

00:13:54are all through here.

00:13:56She's dodging these step ladders

00:13:58and the various bits and pieces

00:13:59strewn about.

00:14:00There's no electricity

00:14:01on this floor,

00:14:02not even working lights,

00:14:03so it would have been dark.

00:14:04Any other footprints?

00:14:05Lots.

00:14:06Builders have been

00:14:07coming in and out.

00:14:08Hers are easy,

00:14:09because she's barefoot.

00:14:10We're trying to lift prints

00:14:11and match them

00:14:12with all the workmen,

00:14:13but it's a bit of a mess.

00:14:14Doors, windows?

00:14:15Nothing's been forced

00:14:16or broken.

00:14:17Unless she comes

00:14:17into the kitchen,

00:14:19which is also dark.

00:14:21And she moves across to here.

00:14:23There was a three-quarter moon

00:14:24last night,

00:14:25waning, if anyone cares,

00:14:27so there would have been

00:14:28some light coming

00:14:29through this window,

00:14:29just enough to see by.

00:14:31This whole area here

00:14:32is peppered with shots,

00:14:33so presumably the shooter

00:14:35was at this sort of angle

00:14:38and, what,

00:14:40two or three metres away?

00:14:41Mm-hmm.

00:14:42We found a broken glass

00:14:43tumbler in the sink.

00:14:44We're lifting prints

00:14:45from the glass fragments.

00:14:46I'd be very surprised

00:14:47if they weren't hers.

00:14:49So she's facing the window

00:14:50and gets shot in the back.

00:14:53Why not just leave her here?

00:14:57And why bother

00:14:58to take her outside

00:14:59if you're not going

00:15:00to conceal the body?

00:15:03I'm just going

00:15:04to let's appreciate it, sir.

00:15:09You've been in the wars.

00:15:12I overheard the message

00:15:13you left for Helen

00:15:14this morning.

00:15:17Yeah, we're not together,

00:15:18that would.

00:15:19And you don't want

00:15:20to talk about it?

00:15:21She was in a car accident.

00:15:27We lost our baby.

00:15:29I heard.

00:15:31I'm sorry.

00:15:34She's, um,

00:15:35she's having a hard time

00:15:36coping with it

00:15:36and she thinks

00:15:37she needs some time

00:15:38on her own.

00:15:40Maybe she's right.

00:15:43She's temporary.

00:15:45I'm just giving her

00:15:46some space.

00:15:47And you?

00:15:48You?

00:15:51How are you coping?

00:15:55With the separation.

00:15:56With the loss.

00:15:58It was your baby, too.

00:16:02I cope.

00:16:05Sir,

00:16:06we've identified

00:16:08the man in the photograph.

00:16:09His name's Philip Turner

00:16:10and he used to own the Priory.

00:16:18All right, yeah.

00:16:19I'll post it on, thanks.

00:16:21We're going to contact

00:16:23the Morgans,

00:16:24Samantha's parents

00:16:24and tell them what happened.

00:16:26Oh, and the photo

00:16:27by the bedside,

00:16:28it's Kate Morgan,

00:16:29Samantha's sister.

00:16:30She's three years younger.

00:16:31So where is she?

00:16:32Well, we're trying to trace her.

00:16:35Don't you think it's odd

00:16:36that James Wolfe

00:16:37never mentioned her sister?

00:16:40Perhaps they were estranged.

00:16:41Yeah, but

00:16:42you still wanted to know

00:16:43though, wouldn't you?

00:16:44The Morgans

00:16:53is the one that's

00:16:54Bismarck.

00:16:56It's all right,

00:17:34auction that's right not the most popular outcome as far as some of the locals are concerned a lot of

00:17:41people worried about the gentrification of the countryside around here i think they thought

00:17:45that james and samantha were going to turn the place into some kind of theme park how well did

00:17:50you know samantha well and each other growing up well the group of us village kids you know

00:17:56we were inseparable for a time are the others still around oh yeah amanda gibson lives here she was

00:18:03sam's best friend back then david and liz hughes run the queen's head but she never stayed in touch

00:18:09with anyone sam always used to say the best thing about a place like this was seeing it disappear in

00:18:14the rearview mirror and yet she did come back and you became close again we saw each other around the

00:18:22place sir mr turner are you going to make me waste my forensic team's time matching the hairs from this

00:18:37dog to the ones we found in samantha's bedroom we've been seeing each other for a few weeks

00:18:45whenever she came up it's an affair inspector you're supposed to lie about it not during a murder

00:18:52investigation you're not you saw her last night i did i went around there about 11

00:18:58she was very much alive when i left which was when just before one and you saw her yesterday afternoon

00:19:04not that i recall no

00:19:07why did you leave last night why didn't you stay i never stayed not my choice sam didn't believe that

00:19:17sex with someone constituted infidelity if you can understand that she drew a line between sex and

00:19:24intimacy she'd sleep with you but she didn't want to wake up next to you

00:19:27did her husband know about the affair i don't think so i'm gonna have someone come up and take

00:19:39a formal statement from me and uh we have to take your gun for forensic examination

00:19:44look i realize i must be a suspect

00:19:55well i think there was someone else there last night

00:19:59that must be the most predictable thing i could say i'm listening

00:20:03i didn't see anyone but when i left getting into my car i heard

00:20:08something in the undergrowth i don't think that it could have been an animal

00:20:12whereabouts off to my right in the grounds

00:20:16but you didn't see anyone no okay mr tanner

00:20:23did you love her

00:20:27no

00:20:29this is my world inspector

00:20:34in the last year i've lost everything

00:20:38and i realized that i never really had anything to lose it's a strange feeling

00:20:43spend your life desperately clinging on to things that you don't really want

00:20:47probably i should be up a mountain somewhere

00:20:52chanting

00:20:53but i'm not i'm here

00:20:5536 fairly pointless years on earth

00:20:59i aspire to nothing in my future and i may not even be halfway through my life

00:21:04i didn't love her no

00:21:07but i will miss her

00:21:09sorry

00:21:12we'll talk again i'm sure

00:21:17okay so we get sent this photograph of smantha walthu and philip turner arguing

00:21:29and yet he denies he even saw her yesterday afternoon

00:21:33he does admit though to having an affair with her

00:21:37and claims that he was with her last night leaving her around one o'clock

00:21:41now we're pretty sure that she was killed within an hour of that

00:21:45right

00:21:46so he must be the last person to see her alive

00:21:49did you believe him when he said he didn't love her

00:21:54the speech

00:21:55nihilism in a barber in green wellies

00:21:57did you buy it

00:21:58no

00:21:58not really

00:21:59so turner said he thought he saw someone standing

00:22:03over here

00:22:05if it was then

00:22:06well that person we've seen turner leave and samantha come into the kitchen

00:22:11and go to the sink

00:22:12james walthu

00:22:14we can't corroborate his alibi

00:22:16he may have known about the affair despite what turner said

00:22:19either that or turner is deliberately pointing out in the wrong direction

00:22:23a prowler in the underground it's a bit convenient isn't it

00:22:27he did say it sounded predictable

00:22:28double bluff

00:22:30he's a gambler

00:22:32he's very calm with us

00:22:33maybe he just showed us his poker face

00:22:36it's quiet isn't it

00:22:45yeah

00:22:46peaceful

00:22:48i wonder how samantha felt moving back here

00:22:52i prefer london

00:22:57knowing that there's people around

00:23:00sir is paulist team still here

00:23:08no no they've gone for the day

00:23:10there's someone inside

00:23:11there's someone inside

00:23:41Here, here.

00:23:42Here.

00:23:43Here.

00:23:44Here.

00:23:49I'll go down!

00:24:05Hey!

00:24:06Hey, what's up here?

00:24:11Did you get a look at him?

00:24:21No.

00:24:27What's this?

00:24:29M-O-K-I-T-A.

00:24:35It's not in the dictionary.

00:24:37No, I don't think it's an English word.

00:24:39It's probably not English.

00:24:41We'll do an internet search or whatever.

00:24:43Bye.

00:24:47That's the photograph, now this.

00:24:49I think someone's trying to tell us something, Haynes.

00:24:51I mean, it's not just the stock market.

00:24:52There's art, there's property.

00:24:53After you get money for £10,000.

00:24:54But when you get back to London, you really should look into it.

00:24:55Don't want to leave your money just sitting there in a building society.

00:24:56Okay.

00:24:57What would you recommend, sir?

00:24:58Wines, Haynes.

00:24:59Wines, Haynes.

00:25:00Certain wines increase enormously in value.

00:25:01And if you store them right, you get a great return on your investment.

00:25:03Sir, I think I was going to spend £10,000 on booze.

00:25:04I want to drink it.

00:25:05Typical bird.

00:25:06You're always where you don't want it.

00:25:07Come on, Haynes.

00:25:08Come on, Haynes.

00:25:09Come on, Haynes.

00:25:10What a bear.

00:25:11Each one's very good in one day.

00:25:12You want to be here?

00:25:13Make a bear.

00:25:14Come on, Haynes.

00:25:15I have a loin party.

00:25:16Okay.

00:25:17What would you recommend, sir?

00:25:18Wines, Haynes.

00:25:19Certain wines increase enormously in value.

00:25:20And if you store them right, you'll get a great return on your investment.

00:25:23Sir, I think I was going to spend £10,000 on booze.

00:25:24I want to drink it.

00:25:25Typical bird.

00:25:26You always want to bring it.

00:25:28When you start...

00:25:29Come on, Haynes.

00:25:30For a bear in, he's burry just like his dad.

00:25:32Hey, hey, no.

00:25:33Just...

00:25:34Give me that.

00:25:35Come on, Haynes.

00:25:36Come on, Haynes.

00:25:37Come on.

00:25:38You're David Hughes.

00:25:39Hi.

00:25:40I'm Detective Inspector Lindley. I need to talk to you in a minute.

00:25:42First of all, I want to clear this up.

00:25:43What is this?

00:25:44Inside with that little spunce.

00:25:46What's going on here, then?

00:25:48Don't look at me.

00:25:49Poaching, trespassing, now brawling.

00:25:51Always brawling. Should we be talking to that one in hospital?

00:25:54You know, you're just one badly chosen word away from spending the night in the cells.

00:25:59What's your name?

00:26:00He's Billy Verger.

00:26:01What the hell are you protecting him for?

00:26:03Because nobody else will.

00:26:03Yeah, well, quite right, too.

00:26:05Right, you two, inside.

00:26:06This is my pub.

00:26:07Our pub?

00:26:08I'll get to you.

00:26:09Let me talk to this one on his own.

00:26:11I want her to stay.

00:26:12No, he's a good lad, aren't you, Billy?

00:26:14He's fine from that.

00:26:15Please, sir, both of you go inside.

00:26:23Will?

00:26:24I'm fine.

00:26:25I didn't ask you how you were.

00:26:27I'm not saying anything.

00:26:30There was nothing.

00:26:32It's between me and him.

00:26:34It's nothing to do with what you're here for.

00:26:36I'm investigating a murder, Mr Harris.

00:26:37If one of my suspects...

00:26:39Don't look so surprised.

00:26:42If one of my suspects causes an affray right under my nose, I'm going to make it my business.

00:26:47Is that understood?

00:26:48I think they've just had a few too many, sir.

00:26:50I'll take care of it for you.

00:26:51Our paths are better not cross again, Mr Harris.

00:26:57I'll live it in your hands, then, Constable.

00:27:02Everything all right, Inspector?

00:27:03Sorry you cocked her up, didn't I?

00:27:04It's all been taken care of now, Mr Hughes.

00:27:08I understand that Samantha was a friend of yours.

00:27:11A very long time ago, yeah.

00:27:14We were an item, actually.

00:27:16It sort of petered out, you know, when she went off to university.

00:27:20These long-distance things don't stand much of a chance, do they?

00:27:22But you were presumably reacquainted when she and her husband bought the Grand Priory.

00:27:28Well, I saw her around the place, but we didn't really talk.

00:27:30Is that a bit strange, if you were so close before her?

00:27:35You didn't know Sam, Inspector.

00:27:37Never known anyone who could slam the door on the pass like she could.

00:27:41Just Sam, is it?

00:27:43Yeah, I was just saying, she were like a shark, wasn't she?

00:27:46You know, now they have to keep moving forward, else they'll die.

00:27:49No, she was there.

00:27:50All that time away, not a letter, not a card, nothing.

00:27:53Well, except Amanda, Amanda Gibson.

00:27:55I think they had some sort of contact, was it James?

00:27:58James Wolfe, you?

00:27:59James and Amanda's family were friends before they were born.

00:28:02It was through Amanda and knowing Sam that James met her at university.

00:28:06Is Billy all right?

00:28:08Ears open.

00:28:09Um, what were, uh, Bob Harris and Billy Virgil fighting about?

00:28:13Well, they don't like Billy.

00:28:15Who doesn't?

00:28:16Oh, this place, the village.

00:28:18Why, do you blame them? Like father, like son, that's why.

00:28:21What does that mean?

00:28:23It's just a figure of speech.

00:28:25No, no, it was quite specific.

00:28:26Well, it's this Ron Verger, Inspector.

00:28:30He was a scourge of this place once upon a time,

00:28:32and Billy looks to be following in his footsteps.

00:28:33Well, that's not fair.

00:28:35No, he's cut from different class, that one.

00:28:36He's a clever lad.

00:28:38Where's Ron Verger now?

00:28:40Far away from here as possible, I hope.

00:28:42Upton left.

00:28:43What's happened?

00:28:44Billy and his mum, what, 15 years ago?

00:28:46About that.

00:28:46Last I heard, he was up north.

00:28:49And that's not nearly far enough.

00:28:52Let's get back to the hotel.

00:28:54Tomorrow I want to look up this Ron Verger,

00:28:56find out where on earth he's got to.

00:28:58Sure.

00:29:05I'll wait in the car.

00:29:06Billy.

00:29:23What's the fight in there about your dad?

00:29:28Do you want to talk about him?

00:29:30No.

00:29:30How old were you when he left?

00:29:37Ten, eleven?

00:29:39Nine.

00:29:40You never heard from him?

00:29:47My dad's not around anymore.

00:29:50From a former support group.

00:29:56Ron, wasn't it?

00:29:57He sounds like quite a character.

00:30:01In a horror film, yeah.

00:30:04Not bad.

00:30:08I don't want to talk to you.

00:30:09Then why were you waiting for us?

00:30:14I think you do want to talk to us, Billy.

00:30:22Billy.

00:30:27There's something down here somewhere.

00:30:40Here you are.

00:30:46Sorry.

00:30:47Sorry.

00:30:49Thanks.

00:30:51You cope really well today.

00:30:53Thanks.

00:30:54It's not very grand, is it?

00:30:58Well, I know you're coming to some money, Avis,

00:30:59but we can't all stay out of the ritz.

00:31:01That's very funny, sir.

00:31:04Oh.

00:31:06Have a good night.

00:31:08Good night, sir.

00:31:24Good night.

00:31:32Bye-bye.

00:31:40Bye-bye.

00:31:41Bye-bye.

00:31:46Bye.

00:31:46Bye-bye.

00:31:50Oh, good. There you are.

00:32:00Here we are.

00:32:01Mokita.

00:32:02That which everybody knows but nobody speaks of.

00:32:06Apparently, it originates from a tribe in New Guinea.

00:32:10So what is it that everybody knows?

00:32:11Well, I've got some news on Samantha's sister Kate Morgan, sir.

00:32:15Oh, good. Where is she?

00:32:16Here.

00:32:17Here?

00:32:18Mm. Buried in the village churchyard.

00:32:21The coroner's report lists it as suicide.

00:32:23She took an overdose in 1989.

00:32:25And nobody thought to mention this.

00:32:27Well, that's not all.

00:32:29The coroner's report also mentions broken fingernails

00:32:32and a bruise to the cheek that might be consistent with an assault or some kind of fight.

00:32:36This all happened about three months before Samantha went off to university

00:32:40and the parents emigrated to Australia.

00:32:43Yeah, good work, Evert.

00:32:46Now we need to find out more about Ron Verger.

00:32:48Oh, um, we've listed 31 Ron Vergers living in the UK.

00:32:52We're checking them all.

00:32:53Excellent.

00:32:54I want to talk again with James Wolfe, you.

00:32:56When's Samantha's post-mortem?

00:32:57Um, they're doing it this morning.

00:33:01Arrange for him to come in and identify the body.

00:33:04We'll ask him about Kate then.

00:33:05That's...

00:33:12Yes, that's her.

00:33:17Samantha.

00:33:21All right, thank you.

00:33:23Come and get you a glass of water or something, sir.

00:33:38I'm fine, thank you.

00:33:43There's something I think I should tell you, Inspector.

00:33:46My wife.

00:33:56She was having an affair.

00:33:58Yes, we know.

00:34:06I found these two weeks ago.

00:34:08I was going to ask Sam about them.

00:34:10I suppose you'd call them love letters.

00:34:16They're from David Hughes, the landlord at the Queen's Head.

00:34:19Why didn't you mention these before?

00:34:23The first one is dated a couple of months ago.

00:34:27Just a few weeks after we bought the Priory.

00:34:28Mr. Walthier, would you say that your marriage was a happy one?

00:34:40I loved my wife, and she loved me.

00:34:45Sometimes...

00:34:46Sam found it necessary to...

00:34:50satisfy her needs elsewhere.

00:34:56It's not easy to live like that.

00:34:58Sam was able to make the distinction between love and sex,

00:35:04so...

00:35:05I learned to do the same.

00:35:09I suppose David Hughes must have got back in touch

00:35:11at just the right time.

00:35:13Actually, sir, to our knowledge,

00:35:15she wasn't having an affair with David Hughes.

00:35:24Then who?

00:35:26Philip Turner.

00:35:28Another notch on Turner's bedpost.

00:35:36I'm not sure that's how she'd want to be remembered.

00:35:40Did he kill her?

00:35:42Do you think it a possibility?

00:35:44I really don't know.

00:35:45Another thing you failed to mention when we last spoke was Samantha's sister, Kate Morgan.

00:35:55Kate was never spoken about.

00:35:57She...

00:35:57She killed herself.

00:36:00The memory was terribly painful for Sam.

00:36:02She kept it locked up.

00:36:04She talked to me about it once when we first met,

00:36:06but she never spoke about it again.

00:36:09I must say, I really don't see how that's relevant now.

00:36:11Why did she commit suicide?

00:36:13I'm afraid I have no idea.

00:36:14Yeah.

00:36:19Did you have any other questions you wanted to ask me?

00:36:23No.

00:36:24Well, if you'll excuse me, I have funeral arrangements to make.

00:36:27When she went away to university, I was devastated.

00:36:3718 years old, you're gutted when any relationship breaks down, but...

00:36:40But this was more than that.

00:36:44Why?

00:36:46It just was.

00:36:47You know, the idea that your perfect match is out there somewhere.

00:36:54Well, that was Sam, as far as I was concerned.

00:36:56Sam?

00:36:59Not your wife?

00:37:02When Sam left, I tried to push her out of my head, move on.

00:37:07I married Liz, and I do love Liz.

00:37:11We were happy all that time.

00:37:14Until Sam came back.

00:37:15But she didn't come back for you, though, did she?

00:37:20No.

00:37:22So did you feel that was some sort of sign that you should be together?

00:37:27What, like fate, you mean?

00:37:30No, not into any of that.

00:37:32It's just that Sam was the only one who had the guts to get out of this place.

00:37:36Did you envy her for that?

00:37:38Yeah.

00:37:39Made her irresistible.

00:37:41The people I know are the people I grew up with.

00:37:49Out there in the world, you can choose your friends.

00:37:52In a place like this, Inspector, you're stuck with whoever's about.

00:37:54What did you hope to achieve, writing these letters?

00:38:02I just wanted her to know how I felt.

00:38:05I wanted to know if she could feel the same way about me.

00:38:09Instead, you found she wanted someone more like Philip Turner.

00:38:12Do you know how I saw them together?

00:38:19I drove past them on the road late one night on my way back from snooker.

00:38:26And they were kissing.

00:38:28Did that make you angry?

00:38:29I was disappointed.

00:38:34I mean, why would she go out with him?

00:38:37You've met him.

00:38:38He tramples on everything.

00:38:40He doesn't care.

00:38:40Born into all that wealth.

00:38:42What does he do?

00:38:43He squanders it.

00:38:44How could she be so stupid?

00:38:51Do you have an alibi for the night that Samantha died?

00:38:53I was with Liz all night.

00:38:58And I don't want her to know about this.

00:38:59She won't understand.

00:39:00I'm not going to keep your secrets for you.

00:39:03She'll find out soon enough.

00:39:06I love my wife, Inspector.

00:39:09And this is my life now.

00:39:12And I've just got to get on with it the best I can.

00:39:19Have you heard?

00:39:20We can prove that Bob Harris's shotgun was fired in the last few years.

00:39:23and it matches cartridges found at the edge of the estate.

00:39:27Right.

00:39:30I think we'd have to pay Mr Harris another visit.

00:39:32Oh.

00:39:34Ron Verger.

00:39:39When did he disappear?

00:39:41About 15 years ago.

00:39:43We don't have an exact date.

00:39:45But Susan Verger started claiming benefits to a single mother in August 1989.

00:39:50That's three months after Kate committed suicide.

00:39:53We need to clarify where he went.

00:39:57What about David Hughes?

00:40:00He's obsessed with Samantha.

00:40:02Says his wife doesn't know about it.

00:40:04There's no love lost between him and Philip Turner.

00:40:06Who I think knows more than he's telling us.

00:40:08Are either of you two armed?

00:40:15Because I want to shoot somebody.

00:40:17What happened?

00:40:18That useless, yokel, clod who was stomping about the crime scene.

00:40:22Garrett.

00:40:22I've just had a call from the lab.

00:40:25Our size 10 suspect.

00:40:27Oh, no.

00:40:28That is the boot print of a man who's been in the police force for God knows how long

00:40:33and still hasn't grasped crime scene protocol.

00:40:37He was first there, was he?

00:40:39Yeah, Bob Harris called him when he discovered the body.

00:40:41Oh, I don't believe it.

00:40:44Havers, have someone find Garrett and tell him to report to us immediately, will he?

00:40:47Yes, sir.

00:40:48Have you spoken to Helen?

00:41:06I'm just worried about Avis, that's all.

00:41:18Mr. Harris.

00:41:24Make yourselves at home.

00:41:26We have some interesting news concerning your gun.

00:41:28Solved the Kennedy assassination, have you?

00:41:31We've had some forensic tests done on your gun.

00:41:34And we've found some unhardened residue on the barrel indicating it'll be fired in the last few days.

00:41:39Miracles of modern solids.

00:41:41What are you trying to prove?

00:41:42Are you saying it hasn't been fired in the last few days?

00:41:44I've shot some rabbits and been playing havoc in my vegetable patch.

00:41:48So where are they?

00:41:49We ate them.

00:41:50We?

00:41:51We and him.

00:41:54The cartridge that killed Samantha Wolfhue will match whatever gun it was fired from.

00:41:58You know that, don't you?

00:41:59It's not my gun.

00:42:00We found some cartridges elsewhere on the Grand Pire Estate that do match your gun.

00:42:05Now, you said yesterday that you're not a poacher.

00:42:08Is that right?

00:42:09You two got me down as a proper villain, ain't you?

00:42:11You hardly look like a pillar of the community, do you?

00:42:14Is that how you do your detective work, Inspector?

00:42:16Judge a man on his appearance?

00:42:18I might not be a conventional sort of a bloke.

00:42:20That doesn't mean I'm suddenly going to decide to go sneaking around in the middle of the night killing some girl.

00:42:25Do you resent people who lead conventional lives?

00:42:27I chose this life.

00:42:29What I feel about people in the village is my business.

00:42:30This is a picture of you not seeing Samantha on Tuesday afternoon.

00:42:44Where did this come from?

00:42:51What were you arguing about?

00:42:54I honestly don't remember.

00:42:56It was two days ago.

00:42:57There must have been something quite trivial, then, or I'd recall.

00:43:00Do you have any idea who took the photograph?

00:43:02Should I know?

00:43:03Would you describe yourself, Mr. Turner, as a possessive man?

00:43:07I wouldn't say so, no.

00:43:09Having an affair with a very beautiful woman.

00:43:12She won't let you stay the night.

00:43:13She won't leave her husband for you.

00:43:14I never asked her to.

00:43:15And what?

00:43:18I killed Samantha because I couldn't have her for myself.

00:43:20It's happened before.

00:43:22What makes you think I wanted her?

00:43:24I told you I aspire to nothing.

00:43:26Well, some people would say that Samantha will prove something to aspire to.

00:43:30Who else in the village knew about you two?

00:43:32I don't think anyone else knew.

00:43:35Tell me about Ron Verger.

00:43:36Did you know him?

00:43:39Yeah, I did.

00:43:41Not personally.

00:43:43I knew who he was.

00:43:44What he was.

00:43:45Ron Verger's ancient history.

00:43:49Where did he go?

00:43:51I don't know.

00:43:51Abroad, I heard.

00:43:53We understood he went north.

00:43:56What about his son?

00:43:58Billy.

00:43:59He's trouble.

00:44:00That's as much as I know about him.

00:44:02What kind of trouble?

00:44:04Vandalism, burglary, arson.

00:44:07The usual stuff.

00:44:07He's not a master criminal.

00:44:08He hasn't got a record.

00:44:10Well, that doesn't mean he's not a criminal, does it?

00:44:12Just that he doesn't get caught.

00:44:13Ron Verger disappeared around the same time that Kate Morgan committed suicide.

00:44:20Am I supposed to see a connection?

00:44:22Is there one?

00:44:23You're the detective.

00:44:24Why did you lie to us about not seeing Samantha on the afternoon of her death?

00:44:29I told you I didn't lie.

00:44:31I forgot.

00:44:32Now, is that a lie?

00:44:33That you forgot?

00:44:34Is there a point to these questions?

00:44:35Because it just feels like you're trying to provoke me into a confession.

00:44:38We're trying to establish who killed Samantha Wolf.

00:44:40Well, I don't know the answer to that.

00:44:42I'm tired of this.

00:44:44I suggest, Mr Turner, instead of aspiring to nothing, you decide to tell us the truth and

00:44:49help us eliminate you from our inquiries.

00:44:51Can we see the photograph again?

00:45:07Do you know exactly where it was taken?

00:45:10No.

00:45:10We should find out, though.

00:45:12There's something here we're missing.

00:45:14So, who's she?

00:45:20Oh, that's James Wolfe, though, isn't it?

00:45:23Yeah, it might be Amanda Gibson.

00:45:35Amanda Gibson.

00:45:37I'm Detective Inspector Lindley.

00:45:38This is Detective Sergeant Havers.

00:45:40Mr Wolfe, you?

00:45:44These were her favourites.

00:45:49Would you like me to leave?

00:45:51No.

00:45:51Actually, we do have questions for the both of you.

00:45:53Don't you think James has answered enough questions for one day?

00:45:55It's okay, Amanda.

00:45:58We're old friends, Inspector.

00:45:59Amanda is protective of me.

00:46:02We're interested in why Samantha's sister, Kate, committed suicide.

00:46:08Well, I'm sorry.

00:46:09I don't know that.

00:46:10Yeah, um, no, we thought that Miss Gibson, knowing Samantha at the time,

00:46:14might have.

00:46:16The coroner's report suggests that there were signs of an assault,

00:46:19that she'd been in a fight.

00:46:20I wouldn't know about that.

00:46:21Surely you would.

00:46:23You were her sister's best friend.

00:46:28Kate committed suicide after an incident of some kind.

00:46:31You must tell us everything you know, Miss Gibson.

00:46:39Amanda?

00:46:45Kate was raped.

00:46:49Fifteen-year-old girl, and he raped her.

00:46:55Who raped her?

00:46:56Ron Verger.

00:47:00Billy's dead.

00:47:03She was walking home one night from a friend's house.

00:47:07Must have been ten or eleven o'clock at night.

00:47:09And he jumped out at her on the side of the road

00:47:13and dragged her into the woods on the edge of the priory.

00:47:17And she said it was Ron Verger.

00:47:18She saw it.

00:47:19Yes.

00:47:22Kate didn't want anybody to know about it.

00:47:24She was embarrassed.

00:47:26Shamed.

00:47:27She wanted to keep quiet,

00:47:31but...

00:47:32Samantha wasn't about to let it lie.

00:47:36She was absolutely determined to persuade Kate

00:47:39to go to the police to make a statement.

00:47:42Two days later, Kate killed herself.

00:47:48Sam always said she blamed Ron Verger for it,

00:47:51but I think she secretly blamed herself.

00:47:52She felt if she hadn't pushed Kate quite so hard

00:47:57to go to the police,

00:47:57maybe Kate would still be alive.

00:48:04Why couldn't she tell me?

00:48:07James...

00:48:07She was my wife.

00:48:11She didn't want you to know how...

00:48:14responsible she felt.

00:48:17I'm sorry.

00:48:18And were the police ever informed?

00:48:23Yes.

00:48:25Sam and I told the police after Kate's death.

00:48:30But Ron Verger denied everything,

00:48:33and without Kate there was no evidence,

00:48:35so nothing happened.

00:48:39How soon after this did Ron Verger leave the area?

00:48:44Um...

00:48:45A few days.

00:48:46A few days.

00:48:48Perhaps less.

00:48:50Did anyone else know that this had happened?

00:48:53I imagine Samantha told David Hughes.

00:48:57Um, they were seeing each other at the time,

00:48:58and she was so upset by it.

00:49:01And then Samantha left?

00:49:04I think everything about this place

00:49:05reminded her of what had happened.

00:49:07Her parents were destroyed by it.

00:49:10They didn't know the full story,

00:49:12but their daughter committing suicide,

00:49:14they emigrated to Australia.

00:49:15Sam stayed over here and went to university.

00:49:21Think she wanted a clean slate.

00:49:26That's why she never told you.

00:49:27She wanted to forget about it.

00:49:28We're going to Bury Salm just over there.

00:49:46This was our favourite place,

00:49:48the three of us.

00:49:51We used to play here when we were kids.

00:49:52What was Samantha like?

00:50:01She was just like the rest of us, I suppose.

00:50:06Curious.

00:50:09Excitable.

00:50:09She was very protective of Kate.

00:50:15When we were at primary school,

00:50:17Kate had, um,

00:50:18punches in her hair,

00:50:20and the boys used to like to pull them to tease her,

00:50:23and Sam was always straight in there,

00:50:25fist flying,

00:50:27fearless if she thought Kate was being hurt.

00:50:28And when Kate died,

00:50:35she was lonely.

00:50:42They were always inseparable as children.

00:50:46I think when Kate passed on,

00:50:50Sam was...

00:50:50and the way she threw herself into

00:50:56university and then her career,

00:51:02the affairs she had.

00:51:06I mean, I'm not a psychologist,

00:51:07but it seems to me that they were all in some way

00:51:09a way to escape the loneliness.

00:51:15Everything she did,

00:51:16everything she devoted her life to

00:51:17was in some way a replacement for Kate.

00:51:20And now they're together again.

00:51:30I believe that.

00:51:34Well, that's some comfort.

00:51:39No, Sergeant Havers,

00:51:40I really don't think there's any comfort

00:51:41to be had here.

00:51:50Constable?

00:51:56It's a nice motor, sir.

00:51:58She's a Bristol, isn't she?

00:51:59Size ten shoe, aren't you?

00:52:01That's right, sir, yeah.

00:52:02How do you know?

00:52:03We have wasted precious resources

00:52:04attempting to identify a bootprint

00:52:05that we thought was a vital part

00:52:07of a murder inquiry

00:52:08until we discovered it belonged to you.

00:52:11Well, I was first on the scene, sir.

00:52:13Barbaris called me.

00:52:15If I stepped on anything, I'm sorry.

00:52:16So you...

00:52:17So you damn well should be.

00:52:20Well, yes, but please be careful

00:52:21over your tone, sir.

00:52:22My tone?

00:52:24I don't look in the mirror every morning

00:52:25and see a failure.

00:52:27I see a man who's worked hard

00:52:29to gain the respect and trust of the community.

00:52:31Now, I realise you would rank me,

00:52:32but I think I'm owed some respect

00:52:34nonetheless, sir.

00:52:38Sergeant?

00:52:40Hello?

00:52:41I'm very sorry if I've caused you any trouble.

00:52:44Lord knows everyone around here

00:52:45is more than keen that you two

00:52:46find out whoever did this

00:52:47to that poor woman.

00:52:50Now, if that's all,

00:52:51I'll get out your road

00:52:52and be on my way.

00:52:54Ron Verger.

00:52:56What can you tell us about him?

00:52:58Ron Verger?

00:52:59That's a while ago.

00:53:01What about him?

00:53:02Well, I understand from Amanda Gibson

00:53:04that he raped Kate Morgan.

00:53:05Well, supposedly he did, yeah.

00:53:07Young Kate, God rest her soul,

00:53:09she went and done that silly thing

00:53:10before we could get her to press charges,

00:53:11I'm afraid.

00:53:12But Ron Verger disappeared anyway.

00:53:14Yeah, he did, yeah.

00:53:15Walked out with his wife, his kid.

00:53:17Good riddance to bad rubbish, I say.

00:53:19Did you question him at the time, Constable?

00:53:21Unofficially, I had a quiet word, ma'am, yeah.

00:53:24I told him to go.

00:53:27Did I do the wrong thing?

00:53:29I'll put it this way.

00:53:30He raped and caused the death

00:53:31of a 15-year-old girl

00:53:32and got away with it.

00:53:34Would you be able to tip your hat

00:53:35to him in the street?

00:53:45That's a terrible story,

00:53:46what happened to Kate.

00:53:48It's no surprise they're all glad

00:53:49to see the back of Ron Verger.

00:53:52And no luck yet, trying to trace him.

00:53:55You know, I think Billy knows more

00:53:56than he's choosing to tell us.

00:54:05Good view of the Priory.

00:54:10When was this taken?

00:54:12A few weeks ago.

00:54:13How old did you know Samantha?

00:54:15How old did you know Samantha?

00:54:16Not that well.

00:54:18What are the lines for?

00:54:20It's the divine proportion.

00:54:21Excuse me?

00:54:23There's a theory that our notion of beauty

00:54:25is all based around the presence

00:54:26of certain shapes.

00:54:28A perfectly beautiful face, for example.

00:54:30You'd have the eyes, mouth, cheekbones,

00:54:34all arranged in sort of patchwork

00:54:36of rectangles.

00:54:37How old is Samantha's score on that?

00:54:41Not bad.

00:54:43Someone knows her stuff.

00:54:45Clearly it isn't me.

00:54:47It's not just faces, though, is it?

00:54:49You've used the same composition

00:54:50in a lot of these.

00:54:52Most people don't spot it.

00:54:54I believe the same maths governs

00:54:57sunflower petals and the like.

00:55:01And fur cones.

00:55:05What do you do as an encore?

00:55:08I investigate murders.

00:55:10And how's that working out for you?

00:55:13Are you sending us photographs, Billy?

00:55:16Now why would I do that?

00:55:18You tell me.

00:55:22When did you last see your father?

00:55:24When I was nine years old,

00:55:25so not recently.

00:55:30And after that it was just you

00:55:31and your mum, yeah?

00:55:33Till the cancer.

00:55:35Now it's just me.

00:55:37She never told you where he went?

00:55:39She never knew.

00:55:41If she did, she never told me.

00:55:43Just took off, apparently.

00:55:47Letters?

00:55:47Birthday cards?

00:55:49No.

00:55:49What about when your mum was ill?

00:55:51Nothing.

00:55:53Where were you on Tuesday night?

00:55:55Here.

00:55:57All night?

00:55:57Yeah.

00:55:58Can you prove that?

00:55:59No.

00:56:00Do you think you're the first cops

00:56:04that have tried to intimidate me?

00:56:07You haven't even told me my dad was a rapist yet.

00:56:10You're not even trying.

00:56:12How do you feel about that?

00:56:13Obviously, I'm incredibly proud of the old man.

00:56:17You just want the truth, Billy.

00:56:19Really?

00:56:19That's not what brought you here, though, is it?

00:56:24Meaning?

00:56:25Meaning someone gets killed

00:56:27and the whole village starts pointing a finger in my direction.

00:56:31What a coincidence.

00:56:33The same kind of coincidence has my dad

00:56:35disappear into thin air a few days

00:56:37after some girl gets raped.

00:56:39Well, if you don't believe that story,

00:56:40then you tell us what happened.

00:56:41No-one wants to know what I think.

00:56:43Mokita.

00:56:46What's that?

00:56:48Look, if you know anything

00:56:49that's relevant to our investigation

00:56:51and you withhold information...

00:56:52It's an obstruction of justice

00:56:54and we wouldn't want to obstruct justice, would we?

00:56:57Do you want to know what I think?

00:56:58I'm on the edge of my seat.

00:57:01I think you're leaving us a little trail of breadcrumbs to follow

00:57:04because you're just not brave enough

00:57:06to tell us what you know.

00:57:08That's very deep.

00:57:09Is it?

00:57:11There's a picture of the murder victim on your wall.

00:57:13You've got the camera set up

00:57:14to photograph the house she used to live in.

00:57:16We've recently received a photograph anonymously

00:57:18with the victim apparently arguing with a man.

00:57:22Then someone breaks into her house,

00:57:25paints a word on the wall,

00:57:26a word that seems to suggest

00:57:28the burglar has some information on this case.

00:57:33I think there's something you're not telling us, Billy.

00:57:35I haven't got the patience for your childish games.

00:57:39Is that the time?

00:57:40I really must be getting home.

00:57:43We'll be talking again.

00:57:44I'm sure you know that.

00:57:49You can't trust us, Billy.

00:58:00What's the rush all of a sudden?

00:58:03Let me show you.

00:58:03Something has been troubling me about this picture

00:58:07since the first time I saw it

00:58:08and I haven't been able to put my finger on what

00:58:10until I saw Billy's photographs in there.

00:58:13It's actually a very cleverly taken photograph

00:58:15because it's in the divine proportion.

00:58:19Okay, you're going to have to take me through this slowly, sir.

00:58:21All right.

00:58:22About 700 years ago,

00:58:24there was an Italian chap named Leonardo Fibonacci.

00:58:26Now, he came up with a sequence of numbers

00:58:28that appears to define perfection in nature.

00:58:32So, um, that's the most pleasing shape to the eye?

00:58:35Exactly.

00:58:36Well, in theory.

00:58:38See, if I draw a line here and make a square,

00:58:41what's left is the same ratio as that with which we started.

00:58:44So, I draw another square there

00:58:45and another

00:58:47and so on and so on.

00:58:49Okay, I get it.

00:58:51So what?

00:58:52Well, then we draw a line

00:58:53connecting the corners of the squares like this

00:58:54until it becomes

00:58:56a spiral.

00:58:57Yeah?

00:58:58And the centre of the spiral

00:58:59is what Billy is trying to lead us to.

00:59:01This, not this,

00:59:02not Samantha and Turner arguing,

00:59:04but this,

00:59:05a fir tree.

00:59:12We need to know what Billy's trying to tell us.

00:59:15Let's go and talk to him again.

00:59:19Come on out there, buddy.

00:59:38Come on out there, buddy.

00:59:38It's punching in my head.

00:59:43And the country happens

00:59:45to glide through my bones.

00:59:47I think you're too late.

00:59:56Yeah, ambulance.

01:00:03I missed that, yeah?

01:00:05This really is a suicide attempt.

01:00:07It's a very public one.

01:00:08I'd like to go with him, sir.

01:00:10When he comes round,

01:00:10he might talk.

01:00:11Let's do it.

01:00:11Dawkins.

01:00:14Good.

01:00:15Come inside.

01:00:16There's a computer I need you to see.

01:00:20You see the thing's passworded?

01:00:23I've got some software back at the office

01:00:24that should be able to bypass it,

01:00:26but...

01:00:27Try Fibonacci.

01:00:30Right.

01:00:31F-I-B-O-N-N-A-C-C-I.

01:00:37No.

01:00:39Makita.

01:00:41Try Makita.

01:00:42M-O-K-I-T-A.

01:00:46Right, bingo.

01:00:47Bingo.

01:00:47There's just photographs

01:00:57by the look of it.

01:00:59Loads up.

01:00:59Go through all of them, will you?

01:01:01What for?

01:01:02Not entirely sure yet,

01:01:03but anything unusual.

01:01:06If you do spot anything,

01:01:07I'll be on my mobile, okay?

01:01:08Okey-doke.

01:01:09So this is what Billy wants us to see.

01:01:17But why?

01:01:18Why this tree?

01:01:20There are no other coniferous trees around.

01:01:23Huh?

01:01:24Yep, so you're right, Paula.

01:01:26So why is it here?

01:01:29Why has it brought us here?

01:01:34A few more of these over here, please.

01:01:37Right outside.

01:01:39You'll notice how the roots

01:01:40have grown up right through him.

01:01:42Why wasn't the body discovered before?

01:01:44There must have been gun dogs

01:01:45running around this area for years.

01:01:46We found a layer of what I think

01:01:48is going to turn out to be ash.

01:01:50Someone built a bonfire over the grave.

01:01:52Ash masks the scent of the body.

01:01:55Hopefully he can be identified

01:01:57from dental records.

01:01:58Can you tell how he died?

01:01:59His neck's broken.

01:02:01By the look of it,

01:02:02he could have been hanged.

01:02:03How long before we can confirm all that?

01:02:05We've got to preserve any evidence

01:02:07that's in the grave around him,

01:02:08so it's going to take us the best part of a day

01:02:10to get him out.

01:02:11After that, depending on pathology,

01:02:12another few hours to confirm ID

01:02:14and cause of death.

01:02:15I've got something you need to see.

01:02:27Welcome back to the land of the living.

01:02:41Wasn't the idea.

01:02:44Billy.

01:02:46They found the body under the tree.

01:02:50Who is it, Billy?

01:02:51Billy.

01:02:51Who is it, Billy?

01:02:57Is it your dad, Billy?

01:03:06The most of it's arty Photoshop stuff.

01:03:08And I was ready to write it all off

01:03:10until I found this folder.

01:03:14That's Samantha in the kitchen.

01:03:17When were they taken?

01:03:22Twelve months past one,

01:03:23two days ago.

01:03:24It's moments before she was shot.

01:03:27Can you answer it?

01:03:29I'll give it a go.

01:03:35I was nine years old.

01:03:39And someone

01:03:40came to the house

01:03:42looking for Dad.

01:03:46He wouldn't let me go with it.

01:03:49He took his coat.

01:03:50He'd been collecting furcones.

01:03:57And I put one in his pocket.

01:04:02And then I followed him

01:04:03into the woods.

01:04:08I was scared.

01:04:13There were voices.

01:04:16People coming near.

01:04:18And I hid.

01:04:22I thought I'd get into trouble.

01:04:29I saw him.

01:04:35Who did you see, Billy?

01:04:41Billy, who did you see?

01:04:45Dad.

01:04:48I saw Dad.

01:04:50There were people.

01:04:52People shouting.

01:04:57She told me not to tell anyone.

01:05:00Who said that?

01:05:01She said,

01:05:01I imagined it.

01:05:03She said that he'd gone away.

01:05:06She said that it was a bad dream.

01:05:09Who said that, Billy?

01:05:12Liz.

01:05:12Liz?

01:05:14Liz Hughes?

01:05:16She said

01:05:17not to tell anyone

01:05:20about the dream.

01:05:25And I haven't said a word

01:05:27till now.

01:05:35Who have you told, Billy?

01:05:36I told you.

01:05:44Samantha.

01:05:49I told Samantha.

01:05:57Yeah.

01:05:57It's from Verger.

01:06:00But Liz Hughes told him

01:06:01to forget all about it.

01:06:02Do you believe him?

01:06:03All right.

01:06:05Then go and talk to Liz Hughes.

01:06:06I know what she really knows.

01:06:08Someone's coming through.

01:06:09I'll call you back.

01:06:16There's someone there.

01:06:20It's the killer.

01:06:22Billy's caught the killer

01:06:23on camera.

01:06:26Must be able to enhance this, Dawkins.

01:06:27It's going to be tricky.

01:06:39Mrs Hughes?

01:06:40Hmm?

01:06:42I've come to talk to you

01:06:42about Billy Verger.

01:06:44Oh.

01:06:44What about him?

01:06:45Well, I'm afraid to say

01:06:46he's taken an overdose.

01:06:50Oh, no.

01:06:52Well, is he...

01:06:53No, he's going to be OK,

01:06:54but I need to ask you

01:06:54a few questions.

01:06:55You see,

01:07:06Billy's been talking

01:07:07about the death

01:07:08of his dad

01:07:08and we found

01:07:10the remains of a body

01:07:11at the Priory.

01:07:11Habers?

01:07:27I'm at the pub.

01:07:28Who's there with you?

01:07:32I want you to get out of there

01:07:33as quickly

01:07:33and as quietly

01:07:34as you can.

01:07:36I don't understand, sir.

01:07:38Well, how did he...

01:07:45He's here.

01:07:51Habers?

01:07:52Hey, Barbara!

01:07:55Call the armed response unit.

01:07:57Get him to the Queen's head

01:07:57as quickly as possible.

01:07:58I hear you've been

01:08:01on the wrong end

01:08:02of one of these

01:08:02quite recently.

01:08:04So you'll know

01:08:05not to do anything silly.

01:08:06Pat?

01:08:07What are you doing?

01:08:10Why don't you go over

01:08:10and join everyone, Liz?

01:08:13Unless anyone need a drink?

01:08:16No?

01:08:18Go on.

01:08:19And you.

01:08:35They know about you.

01:08:38He's a clever man.

01:08:39You're a boss, isn't he?

01:08:43Put the phone down, please.

01:08:44Pat, what's going on?

01:08:53I'm afraid the game's up,

01:08:54ladies and gentlemen.

01:08:56Our old friend, Ron Verger,

01:08:57appears to have risen

01:08:58from the grave,

01:08:59so to speak.

01:09:00And it's over.

01:09:01Well, we'll see about that.

01:09:02No, it's over.

01:09:04What are you going to achieve

01:09:05by locking us up in here?

01:09:06Just doing my job.

01:09:08Your job?

01:09:09Protecting the people

01:09:09of this village.

01:09:10No, Pat.

01:09:11Not anymore.

01:09:13What's this, a mutiny?

01:09:14It's sense.

01:09:15Oh, it's sense, is it?

01:09:17Was it sense to come to me,

01:09:18you two,

01:09:19in the middle of the night

01:09:19demanding justice?

01:09:21Hmm?

01:09:22Now, let's not forget

01:09:23who started this.

01:09:26Should have seen them.

01:09:28The bloodlust they had

01:09:29for Verger

01:09:29for what he did

01:09:30to that little girl.

01:09:33Wasn't much sense

01:09:34getting on that night,

01:09:34was there, eh?

01:09:38Now he hangs his head.

01:09:41They all hang their heads.

01:09:42Look at them.

01:09:44But not the night

01:09:45they all stood by

01:09:46and watched me

01:09:46string him up.

01:09:49So it was you.

01:09:50You killed him.

01:09:51No.

01:09:52We all killed him.

01:09:54I put the noose

01:09:55around his neck.

01:09:56I hauled him up.

01:09:58But they were there.

01:09:59They all complied.

01:10:02And I stand by

01:10:03what we did.

01:10:05There's no way

01:10:06this uniform

01:10:06was going to make

01:10:07a difference

01:10:07to that man's fate.

01:10:08not after what

01:10:11that poor girl

01:10:11did to herself.

01:10:14He'd still be

01:10:15walking around today

01:10:15with how many more

01:10:17ruined lives

01:10:18in his wake.

01:10:19Hmm?

01:10:19You know what?

01:10:28I've heard

01:10:29every argument

01:10:29there is for

01:10:30vigilantism

01:10:31and none of them

01:10:31hold any water.

01:10:33And even if it did,

01:10:34it wouldn't excuse you

01:10:35killing Samantha

01:10:35Wolf, you.

01:10:38Samantha.

01:10:42They don't know.

01:10:44Right little fox

01:10:45in the hen house,

01:10:45aren't you?

01:10:46she'd found out

01:10:48what had happened.

01:10:49Aunt Billy Verger

01:10:50told her.

01:10:52It turned out

01:10:53he'd saw the whole thing.

01:10:55Nine-year-old kid

01:10:56hiding in the bushes

01:10:57watching his dad

01:10:57receive him justice.

01:11:01She knows about Billy,

01:11:03don't you, Liz?

01:11:04She'd feel sorry for him.

01:11:05Nobody should have

01:11:06to see that.

01:11:07He tried to kill himself.

01:11:08Only tried.

01:11:10Shame.

01:11:11You killed Sam?

01:11:14He knew.

01:11:16She was going

01:11:16to go to the police.

01:11:18She was going

01:11:19to tell them.

01:11:20You were going

01:11:21to talk to her.

01:11:22Did I say that?

01:11:23Or did I say

01:11:24I'd take care of it?

01:11:26A grown man

01:11:27come to me

01:11:27to sort out his mess.

01:11:28You killed her.

01:11:29To protect you all.

01:11:30What?

01:11:31From Sam?

01:11:32From my best friend?

01:11:35A woman who spent

01:11:3615 years of her life

01:11:38grieving for her

01:11:39dead sister

01:11:39and you murder her?

01:11:41She wasn't going

01:11:41to listen to reason.

01:11:42Why should she?

01:11:42He'd already tried

01:11:43to talk to her.

01:11:44No matter the time,

01:11:44why should she condone

01:11:45what we did?

01:11:46Why should anyone?

01:11:47We were just teenagers.

01:11:49I've lived with the image

01:11:50of that man

01:11:51hanging there dead

01:11:52for half my life

01:11:53and I regret it

01:11:53every single day

01:11:54but we did it for Kate

01:11:55to finish things

01:11:56not for Samantha to die.

01:11:58Oh, really?

01:11:59So who's all nice

01:12:00and cosy

01:12:00with a bereaved husband, eh?

01:12:01Didn't take you

01:12:01very long, did it, eh?

01:12:02Get your eyes off me.

01:12:04You're as guilty

01:12:05as he did.

01:12:06I told him to talk to her.

01:12:07Persuade her not to say anything.

01:12:08Not this.

01:12:10The footprints.

01:12:10Your footprint

01:12:15contaminated the crime scene

01:12:16but you did it deliberately

01:12:18so that we would

01:12:19eliminate you.

01:12:20Yeah.

01:12:21You're not just

01:12:21a pretty face, are you?

01:12:22That's why you left

01:12:23the body there.

01:12:24Mm-hmm.

01:12:25You knew that the only

01:12:26person to find it

01:12:27would be Bob Harris

01:12:27cos he was poaching

01:12:28the area and

01:12:29you knew that he would

01:12:31find the body

01:12:31and call you first.

01:12:33And I turns out

01:12:34with my big-sized hands.

01:12:35Here come the cavalry.

01:12:51Inspector Lindley.

01:12:52There's a policeman

01:12:53in there,

01:12:53very likely armed

01:12:54and he's taken

01:12:54some hostages

01:12:55including my sergeant.

01:12:57Is he armed?

01:12:58She?

01:12:58No.

01:12:59What's I?

01:13:00Stay in position.

01:13:00That's your way out.

01:13:17I don't think so.

01:13:23Come on.

01:13:24Come on in.

01:13:25Let's pick up.

01:13:26Where are you going?

01:13:28This is over.

01:13:29What the hell are we

01:13:31thinking of?

01:13:31This is over now.

01:13:33Not yet, it's not.

01:13:33Sit down.

01:13:36Do you know

01:13:37what's happening out there?

01:13:38I can imagine.

01:13:39There will be

01:13:40a tactical firearms team

01:13:41preparing to come in here.

01:13:42Not if they're sensible.

01:13:43They're not.

01:13:44You know what

01:13:45you're up against.

01:13:46Trust me, ma'am.

01:13:48They're not taking

01:13:49any of us alive.

01:13:50No, I'd sit down

01:13:51if I were you.

01:13:52No.

01:13:54Serious, Phil.

01:13:56So am I.

01:13:59Get down!

01:14:02Get down!

01:14:15Let me answer it.

01:14:26No!

01:14:29If I answer it,

01:14:30you can negotiate

01:14:31your way out of here.

01:14:32They want me.

01:14:32They come in

01:14:33and they get me

01:14:34and that goes for all of us.

01:14:35I've lost your mind.

01:14:36I'll ignore that!

01:14:37None of us want this!

01:14:38You ought to be careful.

01:14:40What are you worse for, boy?

01:14:41Is it alive?

01:14:42Amanda, put some pressure

01:14:44on the wound.

01:14:44Try and stem the bleeding.

01:14:48Let them go.

01:14:49Keep me.

01:14:50Don't be stupid!

01:14:52I've got to go in.

01:14:53Absolutely not.

01:14:53We have shots fired now.

01:14:54I'm the ranking officer.

01:14:55Once guns are involved,

01:14:56you're not.

01:14:57If anyone goes,

01:14:57it's us.

01:14:59Sergeant Havers.

01:15:01I weren't there

01:15:02the night this happened.

01:15:04I don't know

01:15:04anything about it.

01:15:05You knew about it

01:15:06after, Liz.

01:15:07Billy told you.

01:15:09You were an accessory

01:15:09after the fact.

01:15:10What could I do?

01:15:11This whole village knew.

01:15:14A man disappears

01:15:15in the middle of the night.

01:15:16A man like that.

01:15:18This whole place

01:15:19knew what had happened

01:15:19to him.

01:15:20But no one asked.

01:15:22No one said.

01:15:25And do you know why?

01:15:28Because they were relieved.

01:15:30That man was a disease.

01:15:33He was a blight on this place.

01:15:37Was it my idea

01:15:38to go down this road?

01:15:39Hmm?

01:15:41No.

01:15:44You two

01:15:45would come to me

01:15:46and ask for help.

01:15:47So I helped you.

01:15:50I helped you find justice

01:15:51and protect this community

01:15:53from people like Ron Verger.

01:15:56And when Samantha decided

01:15:57she was too weak

01:15:58to stomach the vengeance

01:15:59taken in her dead sister's name,

01:16:01I protected you again!

01:16:05Constable.

01:16:07Constable!

01:16:11You have to give yourself up.

01:16:17Oh, really?

01:16:24And are you going to make me,

01:16:25Sergeant Havers?

01:16:28Are you so very brave

01:16:30looking down the barrel

01:16:31of a gun all of a sudden?

01:16:32What?

01:16:34And here's me thinking

01:16:35you were scared half to death.

01:16:36And all the while

01:16:37it's excitement

01:16:39that's making your voice

01:16:40quake like a little girl.

01:16:44I keep quiet if I were you.

01:16:45You might have got lucky before,

01:16:49but trust me,

01:16:49if I shoot you,

01:16:50you won't be lucky twice.

01:16:59This is the gratitude.

01:17:03You want to walk away,

01:17:04you want to hold your hands up

01:17:05and tell them

01:17:06what you did was wrong.

01:17:07Well, it wasn't wrong!

01:17:09And I won't let you do that!

01:17:15We're shoulder to shoulder here.

01:17:24Get in now!

01:17:25Help her!

01:17:26Go, go!

01:17:32Stay down!

01:17:32It's okay.

01:17:36It's okay.

01:17:37It's okay.

01:17:38Get away!

01:17:59it's our head

01:18:00so hot

01:18:01Come on, let's go.

01:18:31And we now commence her body to the ground, earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust,

01:18:59and ensure certain hope of the resurrection to eternal life through our Lord Jesus Christ,

01:19:05who will transform our frail bodies, that they may be conformed to his glorious body,

01:19:11who died, was buried, and rose again for us.

01:19:15To him be glory forever. Amen.

01:19:29I'm not sure how such a small village recovers from something like this.

01:19:45Maybe it doesn't.

01:19:50I feel terrible you had to go through all that again.

01:19:53It wasn't your fault, sir.

01:20:01You know, all these months, you never talked to me about the shooting.

01:20:05How you felt about it.

01:20:12You know, you didn't have to throw yourself a garret to prove that you're not afraid.

01:20:16I know you can do the job, Barbara.

01:20:21Yeah, I woke up in the hospital, and I didn't remember it.

01:20:27And then it slowly came back to me, and I realised that it had happened, that I'd actually been shot.

01:20:32And all I could think about was, what if it had been an inch to the left, or an inch higher?

01:20:38Yeah, you were lucky.

01:20:39Yeah.

01:20:40I was.

01:20:44But Samantha wasn't, and, well, I'm here, and she's not.

01:20:52You know, and for a while, I thought, it's been a mistake.

01:20:55I'm not meant to be here.

01:20:56And in the pub, when Garrett put that gun to my face, I thought, this is it.

01:21:07And then I decided, I don't know why, I just thought, I am not going to accept that.

01:21:15I was angry.

01:21:16I was so angry.

01:21:18You certainly were.

01:21:21I was frightened.

01:21:23But, you know, something's shifted.

01:21:27Yeah.

01:21:29You seem different.

01:21:31Do I?

01:21:32Definitely.

01:21:34You seem stronger.

01:21:37Yeah, I am.

01:21:40So have you booked your cruise yet?

01:21:45You know, somehow bingo and ballroom dancing doesn't seem exciting.

01:21:49Well, I'm certainly going to stand in your way if you've decided to be sensible with your money.

01:21:53And if I haven't?

01:21:56You have decided what you're going to spend it on, haven't you?

01:22:03I'll have to wait and see.
