00:00:00Take us to buckle, to fall, to give in, but that ain't the way to bore the rats, ain't the way widens neither, never will be.
00:00:12They think they can bully us. They think they can push us around. They think we won't stand up for ourselves. There couldn't be more wrong.
00:00:30We're in a fight. A war. Not only to save a village, but to honour the past and protect our future.
00:01:00And I'm here to tell you that if and when first war to come for us, or anyone else for that matter, then we'll unleash the rats and they'll chew the flesh from anyone, anyone that dares challenge us.
00:01:26And if we go down, we go down fighting.
00:01:37I'm just here. Give us a call back.
00:01:45I'm just here.
00:01:53Oh, my God!
00:02:21Ben!
00:02:23Ben! Ben!
00:02:25What?
00:02:27The water's cold in the shower.
00:02:29And?
00:02:31Well, I need it hot.
00:02:33Have you let it run a bit?
00:02:35Yeah. Come on, quickly, cos I need to go to work.
00:02:39Right, OK, it's the boiler, the pressure's gone.
00:02:43It does it all the time, I'll sort it.
00:02:45How long's it gonna take?
00:02:47Give me a minute.
00:02:53Mmm. I've made breakfast.
00:02:55Out itself.
00:02:57I'm actually a coffee and go girl.
00:02:59Should've asked. Oh, hang on a sec, before I forget.
00:03:01Key to the kingdom.
00:03:03Don't lose them.
00:03:05It's Hitchens.
00:03:07Do you get the calls?
00:03:15OK, what do we have here?
00:03:17Who's that behind us?
00:03:19Someone's in a rush.
00:03:21Whoa, whoa, whoa, here at me!
00:03:23What?
00:03:25Hey! Slow down, mate!
00:03:27Hey, stop! Stop! Stop!
00:03:29Stop!
00:03:30Whoa!
00:03:33What are you playing at? You nearly drove into a crime scene.
00:03:35I did, I didn't realise.
00:03:37What, you didn't see the police or the tape?
00:03:39What's your name?
00:03:41I'll just turn around.
00:03:42No, no, the name, please.
00:03:43It's Hebden, Michael Hebden.
00:03:45What are you doing up here, Mr Hebden?
00:03:46I'm on my way home from work, I thought I'd take a shot, but...
00:03:49Where do you work, Michael?
00:03:51What does that matter?
00:03:52Just answer the question.
00:03:53Up at Firth Water, the water company at Hope Valley.
00:03:57What's going on up here?
00:03:58I'll tell you what's going on.
00:03:59You're going to turn around and you're going to use the road like a normal person.
00:04:03Go on.
00:04:04Go on.
00:04:11Is he kidding?
00:04:12I guess you're out in the sticks now, Diane.
00:04:14Roads are just a suggestion.
00:04:20She always gets here before.
00:04:21How does she even do it?
00:04:22I don't know.
00:04:23Dr Taylor!
00:04:25Hello.
00:04:26A dog walker found him about an hour ago.
00:04:30Any idea?
00:04:32Cheers.
00:04:35Neil Goodwin, 23 years old with him.
00:04:37Time of death.
00:04:39As usual, the best I can offer is a rough estimate.
00:04:42Judging from the pallor and rigour, I'm pretty sure he's been here all night.
00:04:46And he made a weapon?
00:04:47GBC.
00:04:48But whatever it was, it was hard enough to shatter his skull.
00:04:51Marko that's it.
00:04:52You keep first water out of women's.
00:05:21This is Neil's house.
00:05:30He's obviously a very passionate man.
00:05:34Clearly not a fan of first water.
00:05:36The door's open.
00:05:40Hello?
00:05:43Hello?
00:05:44Oh, wait, around the back, around the back!
00:05:47Stop! Police!
00:05:51Right, do you want to tell me why a vicar is running from the police, pal?
00:06:04What are you playing at?
00:06:06I'm sorry.
00:06:07I'm Derek Alton. I'm the Reverend at St. Asaph's.
00:06:11What are you doing in Neil Goodwin's house?
00:06:13I thought I saw someone in here.
00:06:15I'm sorry I ran and you startled me.
00:06:18You didn't think it was Neil?
00:06:20Well, his car's not outside.
00:06:21So I got a bit worried.
00:06:23Sorry, but has something happened?
00:06:26I'm afraid Neil was found dead this morning.
00:06:30What?
00:06:34I only saw him yesterday.
00:06:37How? I mean, that can't be right.
00:06:40Unfortunately, it's true.
00:06:42Did you know Neil well, Mr. Alton?
00:06:49No, not especially.
00:06:51But you saw him yesterday?
00:06:53What time was that?
00:06:55Maybe around 4pm.
00:06:56I had an online meeting with my previous parish and Neil, he popped in to say he didn't nip off to see someone.
00:07:06Popped in from where?
00:07:08The church grounds.
00:07:09He had recently started working as the caretaker.
00:07:11He came highly recommended.
00:07:14Always happy to help, apparently.
00:07:15He didn't mention who he was going to see, did he?
00:07:20Er, no.
00:07:22Not to me he didn't.
00:07:23Sorry.
00:07:25Erm, may I go now, please?
00:07:28This is quite a lot to process.
00:07:29Thank you for your help.
00:07:33If we have any more questions, we'll be in touch.
00:07:38Derek.
00:07:41Lucas, what are you doing here?
00:07:43I was looking for Neil.
00:07:44Is he about?
00:07:45This is Lucas Oxley, a neighbour of Neil's.
00:07:48You're not going to believe this, but, erm, Neil has...
00:07:52I'm afraid Neil's body was discovered this morning.
00:07:55Really?
00:07:56Really?
00:07:57What were you talking to him yesterday?
00:08:00When were they?
00:08:01Early evening.
00:08:03Would you be a bit more specific?
00:08:07Do I know you?
00:08:10Not to my knowledge, no.
00:08:13It was around six.
00:08:15I was outside a pub having a smoke.
00:08:17What pub?
00:08:18Only one pub round here.
00:08:20The Fatted Calf.
00:08:22Neil and I had a chat.
00:08:24I went back inside.
00:08:26Did he say where he was going to next?
00:08:29I didn't ask.
00:08:32We should do a remembrance for him.
00:08:35Seeing as much as we all liked him.
00:08:49What was wrong with him?
00:08:50Did you see how we were looking at you?
00:08:50Well, I don't know what that was all about.
00:08:54Shall we have a look around?
00:08:56Yeah, let's.
00:09:09Is that what I think it is?
00:09:11A well?
00:09:13Got it in one.
00:09:15Let's have a look.
00:09:17A bit random.
00:09:19Why would someone have a well in their garden?
00:09:22Well, you never know until you look.
00:09:25Can't see anything.
00:09:26No, there's nothing.
00:09:28Worth a try.
00:09:30Let's take a proper look inside Neil's house.
00:09:36Quality stuff, eh?
00:09:37You know about antiques?
00:09:40Ah.
00:09:41Every Sunday night, I had a bath for jam butter in the antiques roadshow without fail.
00:09:46What all kids grew up with that.
00:09:47Take a look at this.
00:09:51What are these?
00:09:55Oh, whoa.
00:09:56Look at these.
00:09:57Looks like Neil has been blackmailed.
00:09:59Repent or die.
00:10:01Judgment is coming.
00:10:02The rats will eat you alive.
00:10:06Death is watching you.
00:10:11The hell is that?
00:10:12Neil Goodwin, 23 years of age.
00:10:36Died from blood force trauma to the head.
00:10:39He was last seen alive outside the Fatted Calf pub in Wythens yesterday about 6pm.
00:10:44Two hours later, he was found dead in a local quarry.
00:10:47And what we need to do is account for those two hours.
00:10:50Tracy, can you see where that lettering might have come from?
00:10:53Yeah, yeah, will do, sir.
00:10:54Ben, Diane, you spoke with Derek Alton, the vicar.
00:10:59Yeah, it was a bit skittish, wasn't it?
00:11:01My bad.
00:11:02Uh, we also saw someone dressed up like a rat-like creature with a weird mask on.
00:11:11Yeah, it was that.
00:11:12A rat, yeah.
00:11:14Yeah, and whoever it was, whatever it was, was stood directly outside Neil's house and
00:11:18then just disappeared to thin air.
00:11:21Listen, can we put that on hold for a moment?
00:11:23Is no one going to ask me why I'm a few minutes late?
00:11:25Why a few minutes late?
00:11:27Yeah, thanks.
00:11:28Uh, I've been digging up some more case files.
00:11:33And...
00:11:34Seriously?
00:11:37Have you ever forgotten Emma Runshaw?
00:11:38Anyone going to fill me in?
00:11:40Oh, it's your case, Todd.
00:11:42Right.
00:11:44Emma Runshaw, only daughter of Howard and Sarah Runshaw.
00:11:47Five years ago, she was going to see her boyfriend in Birmingham.
00:11:50Never arrived.
00:11:51Disappeared en route.
00:11:52Now, have a little guess who her boyfriend was.
00:11:54Neil Goodwin.
00:11:58Bingo.
00:11:59Anyway, last sighting of Emma was in a tiny amulet in between Eatendale and Birmingham.
00:12:05No witnesses, no CCTV or phone were dead, and her parents are convinced it's all down to Neil Goodwin.
00:12:11You two are definitely going back to Withers.
00:12:13They're going to pay the Runshaw's a visit.
00:12:15Oh, mate, mate, don't forget tonight, we're paying due reverence, yeah?
00:12:19Yes.
00:12:21What's that about?
00:12:22Well, on this very day, back in 1972, Derby County won what was the old First Division.
00:12:28It's a big deal.
00:12:29Upgrade offer.
00:12:50Mrs. Runshaw.
00:12:55Yes?
00:12:55DC Ben Cooper.
00:12:57This is DC Fry.
00:12:58Can we come in and have a chat, please?
00:13:00Yes.
00:13:01Come in.
00:13:07I knew you'd be round.
00:13:08I said to Howard, I said, ours be the first door they knock on.
00:13:16I mean, when we found out Neil was murdered.
00:13:18Mrs. Runshaw, can we ask where you was yesterday evening?
00:13:22Sat in, watching books with Howard.
00:13:25Is your husband around?
00:13:28Upstairs.
00:13:29Can you shut him down?
00:13:32Howard!
00:13:34Police are here.
00:13:36They think we've done away with Neil Goodwin.
00:13:40Sorry.
00:13:42Just getting things ready for Emma Day.
00:13:44We like to commemorate her each year since she's gone missing.
00:13:47We're putting three of her photos and artwork on display in the local church, so the village
00:13:54can remember her.
00:13:56It'd be like she'd never been away.
00:13:58We were just establishing your whereabouts last night, Mr. Runshaw.
00:14:02I told him we were watching Tally.
00:14:04Which we were.
00:14:06Right.
00:14:07Can you tell us when either of you last saw Neil Goodwin?
00:14:10Can't remember.
00:14:12Sarah?
00:14:13Don't ask me.
00:14:14We avoided him like the plague.
00:14:18You still blame him for the disappearance of Emma five years later?
00:14:21It was him all right, make no mistake.
00:14:23Well, according to our records, he had a solid alibi the day Emma disappeared.
00:14:28That was a pack of lies.
00:14:30He took her from us.
00:14:32No doubt there's a reason you're saying that, Mrs. Runshaw.
00:14:34He was controlling Emma.
00:14:36By the time we realised it was too late, we challenged him, but she just vanished.
00:14:39He's had a hold-up somewhere all to himself, I know it.
00:14:42But Neil came back to Wythens to live, and I begged and begged him to tell us where she was.
00:14:48She just said that you both avoided him like the plague, so which one is it?
00:14:53Got a smart one here, Sarah.
00:14:55Better watch our step.
00:14:59What Neil ever said to us was that we should forget about Emma and move on.
00:15:02If you knew what I went through bringing her into this world, I almost died giving birth.
00:15:12But I fought with all I had because I was going to be her mum.
00:15:17And he thought we should just move on.
00:15:19Listen, let's park Emma for now.
00:15:21She's not the reason we came here.
00:15:24But you're the ones bringing her up.
00:15:25It's like you lot have forgotten all about her.
00:15:27No-one calls us.
00:15:29There are no updates and nothing.
00:15:31Okay, like my colleague said that...
00:15:33Five years and we're no closer to getting her back.
00:15:36We're dying with this woody great hole in our lives.
00:15:38If there's time, I'll try and follow it up.
00:15:40I'm not making any promises, but can we get back to talking about Neil, please?
00:15:43Did you hear that, love?
00:15:45She's going to find Emma.
00:15:47No, I never said that.
00:15:49Take these.
00:15:51Get to know our beautiful daughter.
00:15:53Then you'll see why Neil wanted her up to himself.
00:16:06Right.
00:16:06Neil Goodwin's life in a nutshell.
00:16:08We've got bank statements, letters, bills.
00:16:10I mean, you name it.
00:16:13All right.
00:16:14Sock all will have been through that.
00:16:15Yeah, but I haven't.
00:16:17Are they?
00:16:18Emma Runshaw's diaries?
00:16:20Yeah, Howard Runshaw gave me them.
00:16:22Yeah, no.
00:16:22Waste of time.
00:16:23Nothing but the cliched agonies of every teenager you've ever met.
00:16:27I've done a bit of a deep dive on Neil.
00:16:29So it appears like he never had a full-time job, but did lots of cashing handwork.
00:16:35Dairst and dairst.
00:16:36Yeah, both parents killed in a car crash.
00:16:39He inherited the house and his brother, he emigrated to New Zealand.
00:16:44Any previous?
00:16:45Yeah, it was a public order in Birmingham, outside of nightclub Eastside.
00:16:50But, I mean, other than that, he appears like an angel.
00:16:53Where did he stay in Brough?
00:16:55Tupton Lane.
00:16:55Yeah, I went there.
00:16:57I was seeing if Emma was beneath the floorboards.
00:17:00There's anything to get their stupid parents off my back.
00:17:04Any signing of his phone?
00:17:06No, no.
00:17:07Service provider reckons it's switched off, but they're going to send over, like, call data and
00:17:10last cell site when they have it.
00:17:12And what about his car?
00:17:13Er, no.
00:17:14No signing of that, either.
00:17:15Yeah, look, guys, we are going to broaden the search tomorrow.
00:17:17Odds are.
00:17:17We find the car.
00:17:18We find the phone.
00:17:19Ben, derby time.
00:17:20Let's go.
00:17:24Chewie calls.
00:17:27See you tomorrow.
00:17:28See ya.
00:17:34Oh, thought you were told to ignore them.
00:17:38Yeah, but looks like I'm home alone tonight, so what else am I going to do?
00:17:42All right.
00:17:43Night-night.
00:17:53Everyone's fighting, now that I'd be proud.
00:17:58Steep room is watching us.
00:18:01I can tell them that's the height.
00:18:04Every one's fighting.
00:18:05What's that?
00:18:06I'm going to commit to the song.
00:18:07Show up a second, right?
00:18:09Go on.
00:18:09Tell me this, right?
00:18:10What's it like with the new flatmate?
00:18:13Oh, here we go.
00:18:15Er, no, yeah, it's, er, yeah, it's fine.
00:18:19No problems.
00:18:21No.
00:18:22No.
00:18:22I want to know what she's like outside of office hours, outside of those suits that she wears.
00:18:27I want to know.
00:18:28I can't tell you what she's like, because she's only just arrived there, so I can't give you any specifics.
00:18:33Say, right, that you want to bring a girl back home, or you want to watch the football, or, no, no, all right.
00:18:40Say, say, you want to walk around in your pants, right?
00:18:43Right?
00:18:43The one thing that I've always said that I will never give up is my freedom, my right to be me, God-given right, yeah?
00:18:51And I follow that to the letter, to the letter, then, all right?
00:18:55Otherwise, look, you'll never live.
00:18:57It's not that deep.
00:18:58It's not that deep.
00:18:59Anyway, I've got a house, mate, not an incurable disease, you know what I mean?
00:19:03Well, I bloody hope not, because I have been sipping from your pint when you've been looking away.
00:19:07Well, I've been spitting in yours, pal.
00:19:08Well, I've been spitting in yours, pal.
00:19:38I've been spitting in yours, pal.
00:20:08Let's go.
00:20:38Mum, are you here? Mum, I've brought you dinner. Mother!
00:20:57No need to shout, love. I could smear you upstairs.
00:21:04Hello. Hello, love.
00:21:06It's way too late for dinner. So, what are you really doing here?
00:21:11Oh, straight to the point. You should have been a copper, Mum.
00:21:15No, actually, there is something I want to ask you, because if anyone would know, it would be you.
00:21:20So, what do you know about rat-like figures in Witham's?
00:21:27Oh. I think you're talking about Satan's version of Morris dancers. Call themselves the Border Rats.
00:21:37Yeah? That's... Why did they dress like that?
00:21:44Well, it was to do with the workers who died. The quarry at Witham's.
00:21:48It collapsed in the 1880s.
00:21:50Hundreds of them died. And they were all found with their fingers and toes and faces, chewed and even bitten clean off by rats.
00:22:02Wow. Well. They ate the workers.
00:22:04Oh, more than ate them. They absorbed them. That company didn't care how many men died. Just as long as their quarry could work overtime.
00:22:14So, the story is that the Border Rats were formed to protect Witham's from then on.
00:22:21Beware the rats. They will eat you alive.
00:22:24What was that?
00:22:25Ah, nothing. It's just a message I read.
00:22:29Robin, be careful.
00:22:32When the Border Rats feast, they eat both body and soul.
00:22:44Welcome back to the Border Rats.
00:22:45Bye.
00:22:46Bye.
00:22:48Bye.
00:23:14So, the phone was found in the brambles on the path up to Mount Tart.
00:23:21Now, we're still waiting for forensics on the blood, but fingerprints have confirmed that it is, in fact, Neil Goodwin's phone.
00:23:26Now, it looks like Neil's killer grabbed the phone and dumped it miles away.
00:23:31So, sexy TV, traffic cam, the usual, whatever they throw up. Yes, basically.
00:23:37Yeah, I've looked into the lettering found on the threat sent to Neil, and it looks like it's been cut out of a Bible.
00:23:43We don't know which version yet, but forensics are on it.
00:23:46Okay. Ben? Ben? Anything on the vicar?
00:23:52Still digging into it, sir. Keep looking. Maybe next year, stick to the shandy.
00:24:05Here you go. Made it extra strong for you.
00:24:08Cheers. Right, I spoke with my mum.
00:24:12That thing we saw yesterday, apparently it's called a border rat.
00:24:16It's like a Morris dancer, but a bit more vicious.
00:24:21What?
00:24:23I wanted to say this before. I promise, I wasn't prying or snooping around, but I came across the stuff you have on your dad's murder case.
00:24:32Well, I was just looking for a pen and then I...
00:24:35No, it's all right. It's all right. It led nowhere, so I boxed it all away.
00:24:39Don't that stuff belong here? On file?
00:24:42Well, just, I'll find a second. I'll put it all back. No one's gonna know, are they?
00:24:46Before you do, I could take a look. Fresh eyes.
00:24:50No, no need. I'm done with it, honest. Thank you.
00:24:55Right.
00:24:59Derek Holden. Let's get to know you properly, shall we?
00:25:04There he is. In his old parish. Nice church.
00:25:09So, why did you transfer to Wythens?
00:25:14Ben, you are thinking out loud.
00:25:20Hang on.
00:25:23It's St Maldon's. It's his old church, and that's in Birmingham Eastside.
00:25:27Didn't somebody mention Birmingham Eastside, right?
00:25:29Yep. Tracy said Neil used to live there when he was in Birmingham.
00:25:32Yeah, that's it, that's it. So maybe him and Alton knew each other from before?
00:25:36No, he said he barely knew Neil.
00:25:38Look, we found him in Neil's home.
00:25:40You don't believe that burglar crap he came up with, do you?
00:25:44I'm gonna go pay him a visit. See you in a bit.
00:25:47Bye.
00:25:50That had blocked the altar. I thought we could do it off to one side.
00:25:53We want her, front and centre.
00:25:55Excuse me.
00:25:57You got news on him already?
00:25:59What have you found?
00:26:01I'm actually here to see Reverend Holden.
00:26:04Sorry. Reverend, could I have a word in private, please?
00:26:08Yes, of course. This way.
00:26:18I just wanted to chat to you about your last church, St Maldon's.
00:26:22I'm okay sitting here, all right?
00:26:24Yes, of course. What's that got to do with anything?
00:26:27Did you know Neil lived in Eastside while you were over there?
00:26:31No. Not at all.
00:26:34Never came up between the two of yous?
00:26:36No.
00:26:37That's weird.
00:26:39Never mentioned. He never asked you where you transferred from.
00:26:42Never told you that he shared a flat in Eastside.
00:26:45We barely spoke.
00:26:47I just thought you might have said something in past.
00:26:51It was strange, I think.
00:26:54He worked outside, clearing the graveyard.
00:26:56I thought you would have bumped into him a bit.
00:26:58Maybe had a chat about the past.
00:27:00I had no reason to go out there.
00:27:02And I've been too busy here with the church.
00:27:05Fair enough.
00:27:07I saw a picture of your old church. Very nice.
00:27:13And all this feels...
00:27:16kind of like a demotion.
00:27:18Well, a house of God is a house of God wherever you go.
00:27:23It's a nice Bible.
00:27:26I couldn't have a look at that, could I?
00:27:28Sorry, but I've had a few stolen recently.
00:27:33What I mean is people forget they've got them and then they take them home.
00:27:37I'm trying to hang on to the ones I've got.
00:27:40Bible thieves, eh?
00:27:43You can give me some names of potential suspects, if you like.
00:27:47I'd better get back to the run, Charles.
00:27:50Fair enough. I'll have a look round and then I'll be on my way, yeah. Thank you.
00:27:55Why would you need to do that?
00:27:58You see, my old man was a copper too.
00:28:00And he said to me, make sure you follow every path.
00:28:06I let myself out.
00:28:25Sarge?
00:28:27What?
00:28:28Take a look at this.
00:28:36Looks like Neil was about to have a big payday.
00:28:45You come to repent?
00:28:46Neil was selling to First Water.
00:28:48It says, Neil, we're selling his house and moving out of Wyverns.
00:28:51How's that work?
00:28:52He's got a bloody great big protest sign in his garden.
00:28:55First Water must have convinced him to sell.
00:28:57That's where Michael Hebden worked.
00:28:59Nice recall.
00:29:01Shall we pay him a visit?
00:29:02Yeah, let's do it.
00:29:03I'll see you down there.
00:29:04Yeah, Neil was selling up, but I managed to talk him into it just over a week ago.
00:29:24First Water was delighted.
00:29:26So what about all the signs in Neil's garden, because he was quite clearly against First Water?
00:29:31Well, Neil and I decided to keep the sale between ourselves in case there were any recriminations.
00:29:36What sort of recriminations?
00:29:38Well, you must have felt the anger around here.
00:29:40The village would be up in arms.
00:29:42They hate my guts as it is.
00:29:44So what?
00:29:45They'd go after Neil?
00:29:46No, well, he made sure that they wouldn't.
00:29:47The minute the money was in Neil's bank, he was going to pack up and get the hell away.
00:29:51Mr Hebden, what exactly were First Water's plans?
00:29:54They're going to buy up Wyverns and then flatten it.
00:29:57There'll be a huge water refinery here instead.
00:30:00And hundreds of jobs will be created. It's a good thing.
00:30:02But wouldn't you lose your home?
00:30:04Oh, I couldn't care less.
00:30:05Soon as they make me an offer, I'm taking First Water's coin and getting the hell out.
00:30:10Don't look like the rest of the village is selling up any time soon.
00:30:12Oh, they will.
00:30:13The minute they hear that Neil's house has been snapped up, it'll be like dominoes.
00:30:17All it takes is one person to throw in the towel and the rest will follow, guaranteed.
00:30:21Why did you seek out Neil in particular?
00:30:23Well, that's because of the well in his garden.
00:30:26It's like a natural gateway to the underground springs.
00:30:29Getting that means that Firth have got Wyverns by the ball, so to speak.
00:30:33It's all just a matter of time now.
00:30:35Do you think there's a chance that someone could have found out about Neil's plans because he was getting death threats?
00:30:41Oh, God, I never even considered that.
00:30:45Can you think of anyone that would threaten him?
00:30:48Well, I don't know if I should say.
00:30:50I mean, if that's what got Neil killed...
00:30:52Mr Hebden.
00:30:53This didn't come from me.
00:30:57But if anyone was sending threats, it'd be Lucas Oxley.
00:31:02That's the guy we met outside Neil's house.
00:31:05Well, was there any animosity between Neil and Lucas Oxley?
00:31:10It's Lucas Oxley.
00:31:13There's always going to be animosity.
00:31:22So, Lucas Oxley?
00:31:24Yeah, my dad arrested his son, Rowan, he was called.
00:31:28That's probably why he was looking at me like that.
00:31:30Saw some resemblance.
00:31:31He was into everything.
00:31:33Robbery, GBH, handling stolen goods, you name it, they were doing it.
00:31:37It was actually his wife, Lilla, who gave my dad a tip-off about him.
00:31:42Apparently he was always cheating on her, so she'd had enough of him.
00:31:45Word was she fled to Wales, but my dad never believed it.
00:31:48He looked into it, but never found anything.
00:31:51You know what, I have to say, I think I'm with Hebden.
00:31:57I would take first offer, and I would run with it.
00:32:01No, no, but this is their home.
00:32:03You know what I mean?
00:32:04Once these villages go, they're gone forever, aren't they?
00:32:06And for what?
00:32:07A bottle of water in a supermarket?
00:32:09Hmm.
00:32:10If I lived there, I'd fight as well.
00:32:12And kill?
00:32:13Well, it's looking like it, isn't it?
00:32:15Oxley finds out that Neil's selling up, starts with the frets, doesn't work, so he escalates,
00:32:20takes it to the next level to set an example for anyone else thinking of selling up.
00:32:24Let's get this.
00:32:26Hiya, DC Fry.
00:32:29Yeah.
00:32:35No, I appreciate it.
00:32:37Bye.
00:32:38That was the hospital, because I asked them to dig out Emma Runshaw's medical records.
00:32:43The diaries were pretty much as Sarge said they were.
00:32:46Until I noticed Brave Girl stickers on some of the pages.
00:32:49Like the type you get when you go to the dentist as a kid?
00:32:52Yep.
00:32:53Or the hospital.
00:32:54And now it's worked out that for every sticker, it matches up with a hospital visit.
00:32:58Now, it was a lot of visits.
00:33:00Emma was in and out of casually right up until the time she disappeared.
00:33:05Maybe we should pay the Runshaws another visit.
00:33:13Howard's still over at church.
00:33:15Oh, that's okay.
00:33:16We can do this for you, Mrs. Runshaw.
00:33:20Well, how can I help you now?
00:33:26We're concerned with the unusually high number of hospital visits Emma had over the years.
00:33:31That's what you get for being a tomboy.
00:33:33Doing all the daft things that boys do.
00:33:35Even at two years old?
00:33:37Because the hospital told me that was the first time she was admitted.
00:33:39And that's because she had that illness.
00:33:42What's it called when you keep bumping into things?
00:33:45Dyspraxia.
00:33:47Howard's right.
00:33:49You are a bright one.
00:33:52The first time it happened, we gave her a dolly.
00:33:55And it turned out to be a big mistake.
00:33:58Why is that?
00:34:00Well, it became a thing.
00:34:05She knew she'd get a dolly every time she went to hospital.
00:34:09You know what kids are like.
00:34:11Was Emma leaving home, Mrs. Runshaw?
00:34:16Whatever would make you think that.
00:34:18Well, in our case notes, it said that Emma left with a suitcase.
00:34:21I mean, why would she do that if she was just visiting Neil for a weekend?
00:34:25Because that snake Neil told her to.
00:34:27He was controlling her.
00:34:28He told you.
00:34:31He told her to pack her suitcase.
00:34:33He told her to get on the bus.
00:34:34And he told her he'd be waiting for her.
00:34:37Waiting to take our precious daughter away.
00:34:39Neil had an alibi for when Emma disappeared.
00:34:41And yet you maintain he took her.
00:34:44It don't make sense.
00:34:45It was a made-up alibi.
00:34:48Why won't you listen?
00:34:53My phone, I was found.
00:34:54Cheers.
00:34:55It's not registered to Neil Goodwin, so you can't only get this, man, right?
00:34:59Oh!
00:35:00Want to slow down, man?
00:35:01Sorry, mate.
00:35:09Hello.
00:35:10Hey, what are you doing?
00:35:11Oh, my God!
00:35:12Yes, I thought you were a good man.
00:35:13It's not really good to watch the video.
00:35:15I can tell you what I knew.
00:35:16It's not really good to watch the music tonight.
00:35:17I have no no more.
00:35:18Thanks a lot for this music.
00:35:19Let's go.
00:35:20It's a broken man.
00:35:21It tastes like a lot of people.
00:35:22You have to say I'm the same.
00:35:24It's crazy.
00:35:25I've never seen a lot of people on Earth.
00:35:26I don't know.
00:35:27It's..
00:35:28I'm sorry.
00:35:29Right, so what are we thinking?
00:35:45Let's say the Ranshaw's did do something to Emma, right?
00:35:48Somehow Neil finds out.
00:35:49And they know that Neil knows.
00:35:51So what, they do something to shut him up?
00:35:55It's something we definitely have to follow up on.
00:35:57Yeah.
00:35:59Do you want a coffee?
00:36:08No, I'm OK, thank you.
00:36:09All right.
00:36:09Who's that little fella?
00:36:36Oh, erm, it's nothing.
00:36:38Do you want to talk about it?
00:36:48It's nothing, and we've got work to do.
00:36:51Well, it's obviously not nothing, because you've been jumping all week. Is that your ex or something?
00:36:56We are not doing this, and we are definitely not doing this here.
00:36:58What do you expect, right? Every time he texts or calls you, you freeze her. You obviously don't want to see him, yet he's turning up here, dropping off gifts for you.
00:37:06Is he a nutter?
00:37:07It's fine.
00:37:08You need to do the right thing and report it.
00:37:09Leave it, Ben. I've got this. Trust me.
00:37:12Yes, Dr. Taylor.
00:37:19Yes, Dr. Taylor.
00:37:19Yes, Dr. Taylor.
00:37:23Sir, we've identified the splinters in Neil's headroom. It's hardwood. From our black wood.
00:37:44Black walnut tree.
00:37:53Black walnut?
00:37:54Presumably he wasn't hit with the whole tree, so we'll just have to find out what did they make out of black walnut.
00:38:00Sure yourself, then.
00:38:23You like it?
00:38:27You big chicken.
00:38:28You never said what happened to your old one.
00:38:32I honestly don't know, Lucas.
00:38:35Of course you don't.
00:38:37But take it from lessons learned long ago.
00:38:42Silence is the best friend you never knew you had.
00:38:58Right, so it's definitely not Neil's phone.
00:39:10No, no.
00:39:11So, network provider reckons it's a burner because it's not registered anywhere.
00:39:14But the weird thing is, when they opened it up, the only number they found on it were Neil's.
00:39:18So, whoever owned his phone has been calling Neil on it?
00:39:23Yep.
00:39:24And, according to his provider, he's been calling the Mac.
00:39:28Look, why would a phone that don't belong to Neil have his blood and fingerprints on it?
00:39:32God knows.
00:39:33Right, I need some fresh air.
00:39:34My head's pounded.
00:39:37Right.
00:39:38Mind if I run to McVite, yeah?
00:39:53You've gone to anyway, sir.
00:39:55Look, it's about Emma.
00:39:56She stepped off a bus in a...
00:39:58Right, Diane, Diane, the head is banging, yeah?
00:40:00We just...
00:40:01We need to follow up on Lucas Ockley, find out who's been calling Neil,
00:40:04let alone who hit him over the head with a lump of warmth.
00:40:07Which is what I am doing.
00:40:09Look, Emma got off the bus in a tiny village.
00:40:11There were no CCTV, no traffic cams, nothing to record a movement.
00:40:14But why did she get off the bus when the bus was taken all the way to Birmingham?
00:40:17That's what Sarge said.
00:40:18He said whoever abducted her picked her up from that point, didn't he?
00:40:22What if Neil helped her escape?
00:40:23What if he was waiting there to take her somewhere safe?
00:40:25Yeah, but Neil had an alibi, didn't he?
00:40:27He had some bloke.
00:40:28He spent the whole day with him in Birmingham.
00:40:29We need to talk to this alibi.
00:40:32Every path, Ben, we go down every single one.
00:40:35See, now that's weird, why are you saying that?
00:40:37Where have you got that from?
00:40:38I don't know, I just heard it somewhere, why?
00:40:40Oh, nothing, it's just something Dad used to say.
00:40:46Come on, then, let's do it.
00:40:56Right, let's see who gave Neil an alibi.
00:40:59Ben, look at this.
00:41:04What?
00:41:05Look.
00:41:09Every damn path.
00:41:10Derek Halston.
00:41:12He told me he'd never met Neil before.
00:41:14Hello, Derek.
00:41:22We just had a few questions to ask you.
00:41:25Sorry, you've reminded me, I better put a sign up.
00:41:26Oh, no, no, no, Scott, I can wait, I can wait.
00:41:29Why did you tell me you'd never met Neil when he was in Birmingham before?
00:41:34Because I didn't.
00:41:35Only he did, because five years ago you gave Birmingham Police a statement saying that you were with Neil.
00:41:42The day that Emma Runshaw went missing.
00:41:46Neil asked me to do it.
00:41:49He said they'd believe I'm out of the cloth.
00:41:51Okay.
00:41:51Okay, so where was he instead?
00:41:54You just said he was in an alibi.
00:41:56I didn't question it.
00:41:57Right, so you do know providing a false alibi is a serious offence, so you just happily went along and did it, though, right?
00:42:05You must have known Neil pretty well to do something like that for him.
00:42:08Come on, Derek, you don't just leave your old parish and come to a run-down village for nothing, do you?
00:42:17Neil and I, we were in a relationship at the time.
00:42:24I thought it was dating Emma back then.
00:42:27It was a front.
00:42:28They were best friends.
00:42:30She helped him out, he helped her out.
00:42:33So did the Runshaws know about you and Neil?
00:42:36They hated Neil.
00:42:38And I may have well defended him a bit too fervently.
00:42:45The Runshaws are adamant that Neil's alibi was a lie.
00:42:49I mean, did you end up telling them what you did for him?
00:42:51Two weeks ago.
00:42:53They pried it out of me.
00:42:55They're nothing but horrible bullies.
00:42:57I didn't have a choice.
00:43:08Look, if the Runshaws only found out about Derek's fake alibi recently, then that'd explain why they killed Neil now and not five years ago.
00:43:27I thought I should try and tidy up a bit, but I pulled back the tab where Neil was clearing up.
00:43:50Ben, it's not in the coffin.
00:43:53Ben, it's not in the coffin.
00:43:57Man or female?
00:44:17That'll have to wait for now.
00:44:18That's a nice bracelet.
00:44:20Can you at least tell us how long it's been in the ground?
00:44:23See my previous answer.
00:44:26Thanks.
00:44:32Is it her?
00:44:33Is it my Emma?
00:44:34Is it her?
00:44:35Is it her Emma?
00:44:36Is it her?
00:44:37Sorry, we actually don't know anything at this point.
00:44:39All right, guys, sorry.
00:44:40I know it's her!
00:44:41It's not Emma, Lord!
00:44:42It's not Emma!
00:44:43It can't be!
00:44:43She's out there somewhere.
00:44:44She's alive!
00:44:45I can feel it!
00:44:46You can too!
00:44:46Tell me you can!
00:44:48I don't understand.
00:44:49Why would Neil cover up her body when you could just call the police like a normal person and instead he tells Derek he's going to go see someone?
00:44:56And ends up dead.
00:44:57In a disused quarry.
00:45:00I meant to be the one who offers support, but look at me.
00:45:04When did Neil start clearing the graveyard?
00:45:07Two days ago.
00:45:11It had become overgrown and Neil was helping tidy it up.
00:45:15Did anyone voice concerns about that?
00:45:17Not to me they didn't.
00:45:19He was doing a good thing.
00:45:21I did think it was weird that he just up and left before finishing.
00:45:24Sorry, I need to answer this.
00:45:31I'll be back in a minute.
00:45:41Go on then.
00:45:41Go on, say it.
00:45:44Say what?
00:45:46You think that's Emma's body that Neil dug up, don't you?
00:45:49And that her parents put her there, right?
00:45:51Or at least the dad did.
00:45:56Judging by the mum's reaction.
00:45:57No, but he would have had to have known about their escape plan.
00:46:02Okay, let's just say he did.
00:46:04And on the day she went to meet Neil, well, he went after her, pulled up and grabbed her before Neil got there.
00:46:09I mean, it would be the perfect spot to go undetected because Emma and Neil had already made sure of it.
00:46:13Okay, but if that was the case, then Neil would have known they'd taken her when he got there.
00:46:20Because she's not there, so why not ring the police then?
00:46:24They put her missing.
00:46:25You know, she's a young girl.
00:46:26But no, instead, he moves back to Withens.
00:46:29Doesn't point the finger of suspicion at anyone in five years.
00:46:33Well, I'm not buying that.
00:46:34It's Sarge.
00:46:39They've found Neil's car.
00:46:41Let's go.
00:46:42It's near where the body was found.
00:46:49This is nice.
00:46:50Look at this handsome bastard.
00:46:53He's a wans fan.
00:46:55Any sign of Neil's phone, Sarge?
00:46:57No, not a sniff.
00:46:58No.
00:46:59Look, you're telling me he bought all this from doing odd jobs.
00:47:04Tell you something, I've seen this before.
00:47:07He's reported stolen, I'm sure of it.
00:47:19Lucas Oxley?
00:47:20When did he become a player in this?
00:47:22The last known person to see Neil Goodwin alive, sir.
00:47:25We believe he was threatening Neil over the sale of his house to Firthwater.
00:47:30How come?
00:47:30Will Firthwater plan to flatten Withens and build a water refiner in its place?
00:47:36The villagers are furious.
00:47:37One of the villagers, Michael Hebden, who works for the water company, he helped Neil sell his house in secret.
00:47:44But if word gets out...
00:47:45Yeah, we all know what Oxley's capable of.
00:47:48Anything else?
00:47:50The Runshaws.
00:47:51We believe they were abusing Emma.
00:47:54It's just a theory for now.
00:47:56But the number of hospital visits she had seems to point to that.
00:48:00No one's bought an act five years ago.
00:48:01I just got lucky, sir.
00:48:05So we think Neil actually helped Emma escape their clutches.
00:48:09They found out...
00:48:10Which gives both the Runshaws motive.
00:48:12What, have they got alibis?
00:48:13Conveniently, they've given each other an alibi, sir.
00:48:16But how did they find out about Neil?
00:48:17I mean, was this recently?
00:48:19Yeah, um...
00:48:20Derek Colton, the vicar, he told them that he'd given Neil a false alibi.
00:48:25Oh, man of God lies to the police.
00:48:27Well, he had to, sir.
00:48:28He was in a relationship with Neil.
00:48:30The things people do for love.
00:48:33So, if I was a betting man, who would you tell me to put my money on?
00:48:39Runshaws.
00:48:41Great.
00:48:42Is that it?
00:48:43Well, judging by the inside of Neil's car, sir, he's definitely on the rub.
00:48:47Well, the serge is convinced anyway.
00:48:49Which brings in another factor.
00:48:50Um, we think Neil could have had a falling out with whoever he's dealing with.
00:48:54And then we think it could be that person's phone that we found up at Mam Tor.
00:48:59Who throws away the round phone?
00:49:01Yeah, we have that question also, but we just can't seem to figure it out yet.
00:49:05But yeah, that's the picture, is it the stands?
00:49:08Here he is.
00:49:10I'm just going to put this up there.
00:49:13Remember my hunch about this bad boy?
00:49:16Turns out I was stolen from an address in Withens, no less.
00:49:20It was an heirloom.
00:49:26Where'd you find it?
00:49:27We've reason to believe Neil Goodwin stole it.
00:49:30Neil wasn't a thief.
00:49:32He was about the only decent person around here.
00:49:34Well, we found it in his car.
00:49:36I can't believe that of him.
00:49:38He put the security grills over the windows, installed the front door.
00:49:42Damn thing weighs a ton.
00:49:43He did all that to protect me.
00:49:46Protect you?
00:49:47You didn't say you needed protecting.
00:49:48Well, I would have thought it was obvious.
00:49:51I'm parting to the death of this crappy little village.
00:49:55So you were threatened as well?
00:49:58They come every day.
00:49:59The threats, do you keep them?
00:50:00Because we would need to see them.
00:50:02No, you misunderstand me.
00:50:05They come in person.
00:50:06What the hell?
00:50:12I told you.
00:50:13Every day.
00:50:14Without fail.
00:50:19The border rats.
00:50:21Look, can you see what they're holding?
00:50:22Yeah, it's Black Walnut.
00:50:24Oxley makes them.
00:50:25I'm going to have a word with them.
00:50:26No.
00:50:26They'll go away in a bit.
00:50:29It's best to wait them out.
00:50:30Yeah, I can't do that.
00:50:31No, please.
00:50:32They can't get in.
00:50:32We're safe in here.
00:50:33Neil's sore to that.
00:50:34It's all right.
00:50:35With the police, we'll be fine.
00:50:36Leave it to us.
00:50:40Excuse me.
00:50:42Police.
00:50:42Do you want to take off your mask?
00:50:43We need to ask you some questions.
00:50:45Take off your mask and take a step back.
00:50:49Get back.
00:50:49Get back.
00:50:50I said get back.
00:50:53Leave me alone.
00:50:55Keep fruit water.
00:50:56You hear me?
00:50:56Leave me alone.
00:50:58Mr. Hebden, put the gun down.
00:50:59I'm warning you.
00:51:01I call with the police, remember?
00:51:02We're here to help.
00:51:04I said leave me alone.
00:51:06We're here to find out what happened to Neil, Mr. Hebden.
00:51:09Put the gun down, Mr. Hebden.
00:51:20There you go.
00:51:25There you are.
00:51:27Right, we need to check if Hebden has a license for that shotgun.
00:51:30Although I don't think he's in any fit mental state to own one, but you never know.
00:51:35We need to find out who's behind the border rats, because any one of them could have been threatening Neil.
00:51:39We can't even unmask them without a warrant.
00:51:42There's me thinking Leeds were bad.
00:51:43All right, come on.
00:51:46You need to tell me about this, because whatever happened in Leeds has followed you here.
00:51:50And don't tell me it's nothing.
00:51:52It is nothing.
00:51:53You don't drive the whole way to Edendale to deliver a teddy bear.
00:51:57That's mad.
00:51:59When I broke up with him, he couldn't accept it.
00:52:03To the point where I had to move here.
00:52:06And now the problem is, he still won't accept it.
00:52:11Does this guy have a name?
00:52:13It's David.
00:52:17David Branagh.
00:52:18Right, and is David married?
00:52:23I'm taking that as a yes.
00:52:24Look, promise, I didn't know.
00:52:26I didn't know, and as soon as I found out that he had a wife and kids, I ended it.
00:52:30If you want my advice, I'll be picking up the phone and I'll be putting him on stalking charges.
00:52:35Ben, it's not that easy.
00:52:37Why? Tell me.
00:52:38Well, can I at least see a photo of this guy?
00:52:48Okay.
00:52:55Relax, it's the boss.
00:52:56Hello?
00:52:59Hello?
00:53:05Yeah.
00:53:06You want to see us, sir?
00:53:07Yeah.
00:53:07Take a seat.
00:53:07We've just had the report on the body in Wytham's graveyard.
00:53:17Is it Emma Runchers?
00:53:18No.
00:53:19Turns out it's Lily Oxley.
00:53:21Lucas Oxley's daughter-in-law.
00:53:24She's been lying in that graveyard for years.
00:53:26From round about the time that she supposedly moved to Wales.
00:53:30So Dad was right, something did happen to her.
00:53:32Well, if she turned her husband in, Lucas Oxley could have found out and, well, turned on her.
00:53:38Maybe Neil recognised their initials from the bracelet.
00:53:41That could be what he wanted to talk to Oxley about, outside the pub.
00:53:46Dr Taylor mentions that Lily was bludgeoned to death, and that there are particles of black walnut in the wound.
00:53:53So it has all the similarities on Neil Goodwin's murder.
00:54:20Lucas Oxley?
00:54:23I thought I smelled something when I met you.
00:54:31You're Joe Cooper's son.
00:54:33Couldn't place you at first, but to say,
00:54:36a stink of your dad about you.
00:54:40Well, just so you know, Lucas,
00:54:42we've ID'd the person found at the church.
00:54:46It was your daughter-in-law, Lily.
00:54:48Can't be.
00:54:49She went travelling.
00:54:50Packed her bag and took off.
00:54:52No.
00:54:53Sir Lucas, make no mistake.
00:54:55Neil found her when he was clearing up.
00:54:57She'd been buried there for years.
00:54:58I suppose it saves on a funeral, then.
00:55:00What would her have been buried already?
00:55:03You can pop her back in when you're done.
00:55:04We heard there were animosity between you and Neil.
00:55:08Neil had some things he needed selling.
00:55:11There was no animosity.
00:55:13Why would I hurt Neil?
00:55:15I had not done against him.
00:55:17Where were you the day that Neil were murdered?
00:55:19I was in the pub for closing time.
00:55:21Rehearsing.
00:55:22Oh, yeah?
00:55:23Rehearsing what?
00:55:24You'll have to come down next time and see for yourself.
00:55:27Okay, can anyone confirm that you were in the pub that whole time?
00:55:30That's the vicar.
00:55:31He'll tell you.
00:55:32Oh, so Derek Halton's aboard a rat too.
00:55:34Of course he is.
00:55:36Dancing and chanting to an eye of beating.
00:55:39Busman's holiday for him.
00:55:41But he knows as well as anyone.
00:55:43You have to rehearse till you're perfect.
00:55:45Or else the spirits won't come.
00:55:48What do you mean by that, Lucas?
00:55:50We're in a fight for our lives, sweetheart.
00:55:52And we're summoning help.
00:55:54And mark my words, they'll come.
00:55:56And their hunger and rage will follow.
00:55:59Cross this village and the rats will come out to feast.
00:56:02We are withings through and through.
00:56:21We know what it means to be from a place like this.
00:56:26Those like First Water.
00:56:28They try to pick on the little guy.
00:56:29Well, they don't understand what we've been through.
00:56:34They don't understand the weight of the border rats.
00:56:38Decades have gone by since our ancestors lost their lives.
00:56:42Or for some useless quarry.
00:56:45Those men fought till the very end.
00:56:49And we will do too.
00:56:51We honour them each and every day.
00:56:55But now more than ever.
00:56:59First Water are closing in.
00:57:02This war we've been ready for
00:57:04is coming straight to our front doors.
00:57:07And this, this is our time now.
00:57:10This is our time for revenge.
00:57:13For the border rats to rise up
00:57:15and take back what is ours.
00:57:17Firstly, it is wonderful to see so many here.
00:57:42Especially in light of recent events.
00:57:48Anyway,
00:57:49we are here for Emma.
00:57:53Not just to remember,
00:57:55but to reclaim her.
00:57:58As in, bring her back to withers.
00:58:01Sarah and Howard
00:58:12know that this village
00:58:15is where she truly belongs.
00:58:18Can I help?
00:58:38Lucas actually needs an alibi.
00:58:41And you've been happy to give him in the past, so...
00:58:43Do you want to talk about this somewhere safer?
00:58:50Do you want to talk about this somewhere safer?
00:58:54I wasn't in the pub that night.
00:59:10I don't know why Lucas would say that.
00:59:13So where were you then?
00:59:15At the church.
00:59:17I was sorting a few things.
00:59:18Can anyone verify that?
00:59:21No.
00:59:24But I've got to say,
00:59:25I find it strange that you moved down here
00:59:29five years after Neil ended the relationship.
00:59:31That was pure coincidence.
00:59:34You still had feelings for him, didn't you?
00:59:36Even after all these years,
00:59:37you couldn't get him out of your head.
00:59:39No, that's not true.
00:59:41When did you find out Neil had sold out?
00:59:44He told me last week.
00:59:46How did you take it?
00:59:49I told him I was happy for him.
00:59:51Even though you'd moved your entire life down here
00:59:54just to be with him,
00:59:55you said you were happy with him.
00:59:56Well, we'd figured things out recently
00:59:58and we agreed to be friends.
01:00:01Did you tell anyone he was moving away?
01:00:03Why would I do that?
01:00:05You were a border rat.
01:00:07You would have known what that sale meant.
01:00:09I only became a border rat to be closer to Neil.
01:00:13I swear, I kept it to myself.
01:00:16I knew people would be angry,
01:00:19but I'd never put Neil in danger.
01:00:21No, but that's exactly what you did
01:00:23when you told the run chores
01:00:24about your fake alibi, isn't it?
01:00:27Wasn't it?
01:00:28Talk us through your movements
01:00:35the night Neil died, please.
01:00:38I went to his house.
01:00:42He wasn't in, so...
01:00:44I went looking for him
01:00:45and...
01:00:47I ended up back at the church.
01:00:49And then what?
01:00:52When I went into my office,
01:00:54I saw that someone had been in my cupboard.
01:00:58The door was swinging open.
01:01:01What'd you keep in there?
01:01:05My border rat costume.
01:01:07And my stuff had been stolen.
01:01:11Lucas, we weren't sure you'd still be here.
01:01:35Villagers only.
01:01:38No blow-ins wanted.
01:01:40That's not very nice, Lucas.
01:01:42You've got the same smoke face as your dad.
01:01:46And look what happened to him.
01:01:51Derek wasn't at the pub.
01:01:53Lucas, you lied to us.
01:01:57So who do you want to get now?
01:01:59Do you want to point out one of your friends
01:02:01who can come along with us to the station
01:02:03and we'll find out their line and all?
01:02:05Yes, Lucas.
01:02:14Tell this pilgrim
01:02:15where I was the night Neil got himself killed.
01:02:19I'd have to have a think.
01:02:21I said tell him.
01:02:30He was rehearsing all night in the pub.
01:02:33And you'd know this.
01:02:35How?
01:02:37Because it...
01:02:38Like I was rehearsing with him.
01:02:41No one went home till closing.
01:02:44Your dad's probably looking down on you right now.
01:02:47Thinking...
01:02:48Look at that.
01:02:50My idiot son
01:02:51has inherited my idiot genes.
01:02:53Leave it, Ben.
01:02:57Leave it, Ben.
01:02:58Leave it, Ben.
01:03:07Arrogant bastard.
01:03:11Look, if that's the case,
01:03:13then Howard's alibi for Lucas
01:03:15means that Sarah was on around the night
01:03:17that Neil was killed.
01:03:18Howard is scared stiff of Lucas.
01:03:20He'll say anything to keep him sweet.
01:03:22So...
01:03:22One of them's lying.
01:03:25Hmm.
01:03:26And if Sarah made Howard give her an alibi,
01:03:28then surely that's the act
01:03:30of a person with something to hide.
01:03:32Yeah, but we know Lucas made the staff,
01:03:35so all we have to do is find the staff
01:03:36that killed Neil and we've got him.
01:03:38Nothing else matters.
01:03:40No, I need to speak with Sarah.
01:03:41Sarah.
01:03:44Okay.
01:03:56Mrs. Winshaw,
01:03:58it wasn't Emma's body that was dug up.
01:04:01It was Lily Oxley.
01:04:05Huh?
01:04:11It's just so Howard's right.
01:04:14Emma's still out there.
01:04:18Mrs. Winshaw,
01:04:20according to Lucas Oxley,
01:04:24Howard was with him when Neil was killed,
01:04:26which isn't what you told us, so...
01:04:29Do you want to tell me why you lied?
01:04:32I mean,
01:04:33we could take this to the police station.
01:04:36Seems to me you're not quite as clever
01:04:37as Howard thought.
01:04:39What do you mean by that?
01:04:41So what if Howard wasn't at home with me?
01:04:43Doesn't mean I wasn't there.
01:04:44What I mean is,
01:04:46innocent people wouldn't lie.
01:04:47I was waiting in all evening,
01:04:49just like I do every night,
01:04:51just in case Emma finds her way home.
01:04:53Mrs. Winshaw,
01:04:53I'm here to talk about Neil.
01:04:56We're tied together,
01:04:57mother and daughter,
01:04:59in darkness and in light.
01:05:02Emma knows that better than anyone.
01:05:04Yeah.
01:05:06Emma definitely knows about darkness.
01:05:10You've not got kids,
01:05:11have you?
01:05:14Sometimes,
01:05:15a mother
01:05:15has to do things that hurt
01:05:18both themselves and their child.
01:05:21It's just the cross a parent has to bear.
01:05:24You're not just a nurturer,
01:05:26you're a teacher too.
01:05:28And some lessons take a little bit longer
01:05:29to sink in.
01:05:32But,
01:05:33I can assure you
01:05:34that everything was done
01:05:35with love
01:05:37and care
01:05:37at the heart of it.
01:05:39So,
01:05:41I'm not an artist,
01:05:44but,
01:05:44I'm offended.
01:05:48Ah!
01:07:48I found the staff on Lucas Oxley's property.
01:08:11Looks like he was planning to burn it all.
01:08:14Hopefully forensics will prove it was used to kill Neil.
01:08:18And this is the Bible he used to send the threats?
01:08:21It's got to be.
01:08:22Do you think we can get him on Lily's murder as well?
01:08:25He definitely has motive.
01:08:26Forensics are checking out a bracelet for prints.
01:08:28It would be a great result if we could.
01:08:32You don't look convinced, are you?
01:08:35Lucas Oxley has an alibi for Neil's murder.
01:08:38It just feels too easy.
01:08:39Guys, evidence management just called.
01:08:43It's about the burner they found in Mam Tor.
01:08:48Let's save ourselves to the hospital and just call this person back.
01:08:51No, because that's tempering with evidence, Sarge.
01:08:53So what are we going to do?
01:08:54Just stand around staring at it?
01:08:55What good is that going to do?
01:08:56The caller ID is Neil.
01:09:04I'll get Tracy to get a cell site look-ish.
01:09:06Come on, even if she does, all right?
01:09:07Who's to say the caller's going to stay around?
01:09:10Why did you have to say that, Sarge?
01:09:12Get it here.
01:09:15I'm not taking a rat for this.
01:09:23Come on.
01:09:24Neil.
01:09:27Hold on.
01:09:29I thought this wasn't Neil's phone.
01:09:43The blue kettle.
01:09:44That's a cafe, not a valet.
01:09:45I know where it is.
01:09:46Come on.
01:09:46Yeah, I'll come with you.
01:09:47Bye.
01:09:47Bye.
01:09:47Bye.
01:09:47Bye.
01:09:47Bye.
01:09:47Bye.
01:09:47Bye.
01:09:48Bye.
01:09:48Bye.
01:09:48Bye.
01:09:48Bye.
01:09:49Bye.
01:09:49Bye.
01:09:50Bye.
01:09:50Bye.
01:09:51Bye.
01:09:52Bye.
01:09:52Bye.
01:09:52Bye.
01:09:52Bye.
01:09:52Bye.
01:09:52Bye.
01:09:52Bye.
01:09:52Bye.
01:09:53Bye.
01:09:53Bye.
01:09:53Bye.
01:09:53Bye.
01:09:53Bye.
01:09:53Bye.
01:09:53Bye.
01:09:54Bye.
01:10:24Emma, I'm afraid Neil's not coming.
01:10:30I don't understand.
01:10:32Where is he? Who are you?
01:10:34I'm Detective Constable Cooper.
01:10:37This is Detective Constable Fry.
01:10:40Um, look, maybe we should sit down and have a chat.
01:10:44Why? What is this?
01:10:46I think it's best you take a seat, Emma.
01:10:54Where's Neil?
01:11:12I'm afraid...
01:11:14I'm afraid Neil was killed a few days ago.
01:11:19What?
01:11:20Emma, I understand that this is shocking.
01:11:25But we need to ask you a few questions.
01:11:28Do you want to drink tea or water before we start?
01:11:31What happened to him?
01:11:32Well, that's why we're here. We're trying to find that out.
01:11:37We appreciate that this is hard.
01:11:40But we need your help, Emma.
01:11:43Do you think you can do that?
01:11:48We'll start with Neil.
01:11:50We're aware that he helped you get away from your parents.
01:11:54He saved my life.
01:11:56Not sure how long it would have lasted in that house.
01:11:59I saw the brave girl stickers, so I understand.
01:12:02It's my mum who's the terrifying one.
01:12:05I bet she told you how she almost died giving birth to me.
01:12:09She mentioned it.
01:12:11You told me the same thing every day of my life.
01:12:14Like it was my fault.
01:12:16You nearly killed me.
01:12:18Over and over.
01:12:19I wish she'd say it.
01:12:22Sometimes words weren't enough.
01:12:25She nearly knocked me into next week some days.
01:12:29The next thing I know I'm lying there with a broken arm or a fractured jaw.
01:12:32I'm so sorry this happened to you, Emma.
01:12:37Why didn't your dad step in?
01:12:38The amount of times I begged him to.
01:12:40Screamed myself hoars and he just stood there and did nothing.
01:12:45Except buying me a stupid doll afterwards.
01:12:47Did anybody know?
01:12:49Did the services step in?
01:12:50This started when I was like two years old.
01:12:54And if you grow up not trusting your own parents, then what's going to make you think you can trust any other adult?
01:13:01But you did trust Neil.
01:13:03But I hadn't saved any money and I didn't know where to go.
01:13:07And then he came up with this plan.
01:13:09And it worked.
01:13:10Up until two weeks ago.
01:13:13I was living in Birmingham.
01:13:14I was shutting up shop.
01:13:16I work in a cafe.
01:13:17And as I was turning the clothes sign around, I saw them.
01:13:25My parents, they tried the door.
01:13:29Thank God they didn't see me.
01:13:30I was in shadow.
01:13:31But a few seconds earlier and they'd have walked in.
01:13:33It was completely by chance, but it was too close for comfort.
01:13:37So Neil came up with another plan.
01:13:39He told me to ditch everything.
01:13:41My phone, my flat.
01:13:42He told me to hide out until he could get some cash together.
01:13:44But not by selling his house.
01:13:46It would have took months for the cash to come for it.
01:13:48Of course not.
01:13:49And that wasn't happening anymore.
01:13:50He'd changed his mind.
01:13:52He'd sold up, Emma.
01:13:53The last time I saw him, he told me he was going to talk to someone down at the water company to call off the sale.
01:13:59What?
01:14:01Wait.
01:14:02Did Neil tell you why he wasn't selling up anymore?
01:14:05Him and the vicar had come to some sort of agreement.
01:14:07It got to the point that Derek was doing Neil's nutting and was driving him away.
01:14:13But they figured it out and Neil didn't need to move away anymore.
01:14:18So how was he going to get money for you?
01:14:21Well, by selling the stuff he'd, you know, stolen.
01:14:25As soon as he agreed to deal with Lucas Oxley, he was going to call me on the new phone he gave me.
01:14:31Tell me to get ready to leave.
01:14:32Do you know who Neil was meeting up at the quarry?
01:14:34I didn't know he was meeting anyone.
01:14:36I really didn't.
01:14:37Okay, okay.
01:14:38Last question, I promise.
01:14:39How come you and Neil had swapped phones?
01:14:41It was an accident.
01:14:42He was in a hurry and he picked up mine by mistake.
01:14:46You're going to need to see that phone, Emma.
01:14:47What happens now?
01:14:56You can't bring me into this.
01:14:58You're part of a murder inquiry, Emma.
01:15:00You can't let my parents know you found me.
01:15:02Not if Neil's not here to help me.
01:15:05But please don't tell them.
01:15:11Right, as soon as we get this phone open, as soon as we can find out who Neil was meeting up with.
01:15:15It's school pick-up time.
01:15:17We're going to be stuck in traffic now.
01:15:18Come on, you must know some shortcuts.
01:15:23Ben?
01:15:26What?
01:15:27We're in Hope Valley.
01:15:30And?
01:15:31When we met Hebden at the quarry, he said he was taking a shortcut from work.
01:15:36Birthwater's offices, they're in Hope Valley.
01:15:39Look, remember the map?
01:15:41Come on.
01:15:42Driving through the quarry takes me in the opposite direction.
01:15:45What are you talking about?
01:15:47Just drive, and I'll explain.
01:15:48Drive!
01:15:49Drive!
01:16:06Mr. Hebden, we need a word.
01:16:08Michael!
01:16:10We need a word.
01:16:16Michael!
01:16:21Check the window.
01:16:24Michael!
01:16:27Michael!
01:16:27No, I'll go around there.
01:16:35He's running!
01:16:36Mr. Hebden!
01:16:38Michael!
01:16:41Mr. Hebden!
01:16:43Stop!
01:16:45You're under arrest.
01:16:46Turn round.
01:16:47Turn round!
01:16:48We were in Hope Valley earlier.
01:17:02Tell us about the shortcut through the quarry you take from work, please.
01:17:06Er, yeah.
01:17:08It's saved me a few times, that.
01:17:11Why do you ask?
01:17:12It, er...
01:17:14Turns out it ain't actually a shortcut.
01:17:19Takes you in the opposite direction, you see.
01:17:22Why lie to us, Mr. Hebden?
01:17:23You see, we have Neil's phone, and I think we'll find messages on there between you and
01:17:30him, arranging to meet up at the quarry on the night he was murdered.
01:17:33I didn't meet with Neil, I swear.
01:17:37When did you find out?
01:17:38He decided to stay at Withan's.
01:17:40He wasn't.
01:17:41He was selling up.
01:17:42We think.
01:17:43He rang you, and he wanted to meet up, and he was going to tell you he'd changed his mind.
01:17:46And you saw your plans fall into pieces, because if Neil didn't sell, then no one else would
01:17:52follow suit.
01:17:53And Firth Water would start having to look at other sites, and you'd be stuck in Withan's
01:17:58forever.
01:17:59So you agreed to meeting him?
01:18:00I certainly did not.
01:18:02Come on, Michael, it'll all be on the phone.
01:18:03Look, stop this, please.
01:18:04I know you don't have it.
01:18:06You're bluffing.
01:18:07I can tell.
01:18:08You thought you threw Neil's phone away when you killed him, right?
01:18:12But that was actually Emma Runshaw's phone, because Neil took hers by mistake.
01:18:16So she had his.
01:18:19And, er, well, now we have it.
01:18:23This is ridiculous.
01:18:24Emma Runshaw disappeared years ago.
01:18:27Well, we had a conversation with her this afternoon, Michael.
01:18:30We can keep this up all day if you want.
01:18:31Shall we jog your memory?
01:18:33Okay, so Neil tells you he isn't selling.
01:18:35You've got border rats hounding you day and night.
01:18:37Lucas Oxley is one of those rats, and he's a man who can do a lot more than just threaten
01:18:41you.
01:18:42So you panic, and you realise you need to get Neil to change his mind.
01:18:46No matter what it takes.
01:18:47Yeah, and you've got these thoughts going round your mind, and then you see Reverend
01:18:50Alton, and you know where he keeps his staff.
01:18:53And you take it, Michael.
01:18:55Then you arrange to meet Neil at the quarry.
01:18:56And when you see him...
01:18:57What went wrong?
01:19:09Neil was sorry.
01:19:15He really was.
01:19:17But he felt bad selling up.
01:19:19It was his family home.
01:19:20It was where all his memories of his parents were.
01:19:23He just couldn't do it.
01:19:27And then?
01:19:30Michael.
01:19:33He was such a nice person.
01:19:38Unusually kind.
01:19:40And I suppose I thought he'd come round to my way of thinking.
01:19:49But he didn't.
01:19:54And suddenly I was...
01:19:56I was swinging that staff as hard as I could.
01:20:01Why did you take the staff away with you?
01:20:11Was it to try and frame Lucas Oxley?
01:20:16I knew there'd be an investigation, and...
01:20:19I knew his name would come up, so I dumped it in that stupid bonfire of his.
01:20:25And God knows I gave you enough hints to go and look for the bloody thing.
01:20:29Why did you drive up to the quarry the next morning?
01:20:35I thought I might have left some evidence I was going to look around.
01:20:39I had already panicked and thrown away the phone.
01:20:43But you know what?
01:20:45Whatever I did...
01:20:47This is on them as well.
01:20:51The village.
01:20:53The border rats.
01:20:56They drove me crazy.
01:20:57I just couldn't think straight any more.
01:21:12The rats aren't coming, Lucas.
01:21:16Move on.
01:21:18This is private property.
01:21:19You murdered Lily and buried her in the church grounds.
01:21:26And if it weren't for Neil accidentally digging her up,
01:21:29you would have got away with it.
01:21:32Lucas Oxley, I am arresting you on suspicion of the murder of Lily Oxley.
01:21:37You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence
01:21:40if you do not mention when questioned,
01:21:42something which you later rely on in court.
01:21:45Anything you do say may be given in evidence.
01:21:48You don't know what you've done.
01:21:49You don't know what you've done.
01:21:51Your prints were on Lily's bracelet, Lucas.
01:21:53It's over.
01:21:53You do not know what you're doing.
01:22:24Why? Because I wanted to tell you the news in person.
01:22:26You found Emma?
01:22:28It's more that we're closing the file on Emma.
01:22:30You can't do that.
01:22:32We need her back.
01:22:34She belongs with us.
01:22:36Yeah, she won't be coming back.
01:22:39Why would you say that?
01:22:41I found evidence that Emma ran away.
01:22:45She had the help in the shape of Neil.
01:22:47She's alive.
01:22:48So he took her?
01:22:50What Neil did, Mr Runshaw, was an act of kindness.
01:22:52He was a good person. He just wanted to try and help people.
01:22:55What the hell are you talking about?
01:22:57If she chooses to live a life away from you, then that is up to her.
01:23:00That's our baby girl.
01:23:02What she is, Mr Runshaw, is an adult.
01:23:03And if she wants to be free from both of you, then you have to learn to respect that.
01:23:06Well deserved.
01:23:27There we go.
01:23:31Cheers.
01:23:32Cheers.
01:23:32Cheers.
01:23:32Cheers.
01:23:36Oh, that's good.
01:23:42How were the runshaws?
01:23:44Mental.
01:23:46And, yeah, angry.
01:23:49But I officially closed the case on Emma.
01:23:52Just in time to open a new one against your ex, yeah?
01:23:55Listen, I know you don't want to hear it, but that's the best thing to do, get him on stalking.
01:23:59Let me just do it my way first, yeah?
01:24:01I want to, I want to wait him out.
01:24:06Derek Alton took five years to come to his senses.
01:24:08Look, I thought we were supposed to be celebrating.
01:24:10You got Lucas Oxley.
01:24:12He'd have made your dad proud.
01:24:15Yeah.
01:24:15Did something right.
01:24:17You've done loads of things right.
01:24:21Ben.
01:24:23If you want to, um, you know, bounce around new ideas about your dad's kids.
01:24:27No, no, no point.
01:24:29It's a dead end.
01:24:31Are you sure?
01:24:33Yeah.
01:24:34Yeah.
01:24:35Um.
01:24:40I tell him, I'm just gonna.
01:24:42Yeah.
01:24:43I can tell that you've had some upheaval.
01:25:13In your life.
01:25:14Something recent.
01:25:16And you may have to overcome some hurdle.
01:25:20But after that, things will definitely change.
01:25:24Now, most people get spooked when they see this cat.
01:25:27But don't worry.
01:25:29It can mean the death of something negative.
01:25:32Or the end of a long and arduous road.
01:25:35But whatever it is, I think you have much to anticipate.
01:25:41Even to look forward to.
01:25:44I'll take that.
01:25:45Are you new to Edendale?
01:25:50Or just passing through?
01:25:53We're passing through.
01:25:54But you know what?
01:25:57I think I might hang around for a bit.
01:25:58No warrant.
01:26:03No rights.
01:26:05There's not much I haven't seen.
01:26:06Even murder.
01:26:07Death is death.
01:26:09Two women were attacked in the same area within a few weeks of each other.
01:26:12What was the connection?
01:26:14It's time to come on, don't you think?
01:26:16Get out of here now!
01:26:18I should have listened to her.
01:26:19I should have listened, but I didn't.
01:26:21And it's too late.
01:26:23In the case of the murder of Joe Cooper,
01:26:27do you admit to perverting the course of justice?
