00:00:00Absolute disgrace!
00:00:07See how he likes it when no one turns off?
00:00:11This will teach him.
00:00:18Hey, they've been at it all morning. It's killing my business.
00:00:21That's all I've seen. They're all over the village.
00:00:30Blue or grey?
00:00:32That's fairly good.
00:00:36Blue it is, then.
00:00:48Brad!
00:00:50Good girl.
00:00:51Thanks for coming.
00:00:53Did Brad rob a jewelers?
00:00:55I'd have stolen the crown jewels to get Frankie to say yes.
00:01:00What's with your pants?
00:01:02They can't even stretch to real champagne.
00:01:04Well, this is a step up for them.
00:01:06I was expecting tap water.
00:01:11Cordelia, hi.
00:01:12I'm not drinking this. It's not real champagne.
00:01:18I don't know what you're smiling about.
00:01:20The village have voted to boycott our flower festival.
00:01:23Fear not, my dear. Your brilliant husband has it all in hand.
00:01:27What's that mean?
00:01:28Oh, what have you done now?
00:01:30Is there nothing else?
00:01:31No, unfortunately not.
00:01:36Oh, they're beautiful.
00:01:38Thank you, Kim and E.
00:01:40I was hoping you might hire me to do the flowers on your big day.
00:01:44Oh, I...
00:01:45Yeah, we're not really making any clear-cut decisions yet.
00:01:49It's good to see you.
00:01:50I'm all right.
00:01:51I think I'm getting a cold.
00:01:52I might be over the moon for Frankie.
00:01:56This is me being over the moon.
00:01:58Who the hell is that?
00:01:59Yes!
00:02:00It's amazing, isn't it?
00:02:01My mum used to tell me about this place.
00:02:02Why have you stopped?
00:02:03Me and the others can start setting up.
00:02:06Yes!
00:02:07You've got to come and say hello.
00:02:08I can't do this on my own.
00:02:09You're the one who couldn't wait to come here.
00:02:10Not me.
00:02:11Come on, guys!
00:02:12...
00:02:24You're the one who couldn't wait to come here.
00:02:25Not me.
00:02:27Come on, guys!
00:02:29Yeah, alright.
00:02:32설명 alguien
00:02:33Narth, I presume.
00:02:48How shall we handle this?
00:02:50Like Livingston and Stanley?
00:02:51It's a bigger moment than that.
00:02:54Oh.
00:02:55Oh, oh.
00:02:56Yes.
00:02:58Girls, I want you to meet your uncle.
00:03:00We don't have an uncle.
00:03:01What on earth is going on?
00:03:03Myrtle, this is my half-brother, Noah,
00:03:05and suffice to say, until recently,
00:03:08neither of us knew the other existed.
00:03:10Hi.
00:03:11Well, it's great to meet you all.
00:03:17I didn't want to turn up empty-handed.
00:03:21Oh, that's lovely.
00:03:30Time.
00:03:32Starts now, as they say.
00:03:35Oh.
00:03:36Yes.
00:03:41Oh!
00:03:41Oh!
00:03:45Cuckoo!
00:03:46Wow.
00:03:49Come on, everyone.
00:03:50Let's get a photo of you all by the clock.
00:03:52Oh, yes.
00:03:53Well, it's a big moment!
00:03:54Old family, new family, family of the future.
00:04:00I'm not family.
00:04:01Just smile and say cheese.
00:04:04Cuckoo, cuckoo.
00:04:09Love.
00:04:10Hang on.
00:04:11We need the happy couple in the middle.
00:04:13Oh, come on.
00:04:15Am I going to get my share?
00:04:16You have your reward for marrying my daughter.
00:04:18That's not what we...
00:04:19Agreed, Alan.
00:04:20It's so, Alan, to you.
00:04:23Oh, very nice.
00:04:26That's it.
00:04:27Well done, everyone.
00:04:28Well done, everyone.
00:04:28Well done, everyone.
00:04:28Oh, my God.
00:04:29Oh, my God.
00:04:29Oh, my God.
00:04:29Oh, my God.
00:04:29Oh, my God.
00:04:29Oh, my God.
00:04:30Oh, my God.
00:04:30Oh, my God.
00:04:31Oh, my God.
00:04:32Oh, my God.
00:04:32Oh, my God.
00:04:33Oh, my God.
00:04:33Oh, my God.
00:04:34Oh, my God.
00:04:34Oh, my God.
00:04:34Oh, my God.
00:04:35Oh, my God.
00:04:36Oh, my God.
00:04:36Oh, my God.
00:04:36Oh, my God.
00:04:36Oh, my God.
00:04:37Oh, my God.
00:04:38Oh, my God.
00:05:08Oh, my God.
00:05:38I thought I was going to build this.
00:05:59Yeah, you did think that.
00:06:01And then I decided it needs doing properly.
00:06:03As you are well aware, my grandfather was a master carpenter.
00:06:08And as a carpenter, you make a brilliant detective.
00:06:14Oh, Winter.
00:06:15Sir.
00:06:16Oh, what are you building?
00:06:18Well, if I do it, it's going to be in Arbor.
00:06:20And if John does it...
00:06:20Presumably there's a reason you're here this early.
00:06:43Ah, I thought it'd be this place.
00:06:46I almost came here last year.
00:06:47They have an annual flower festival.
00:06:49I didn't know you were into horticulture, Winter.
00:06:51No, I'm not, but this girl I was seeing was...
00:06:53And when you say you almost came here?
00:06:56Well, when she took one look at my house plants, she decided that I wasn't the one for her.
00:06:59Apparently I put the wrong perennials next to each other in the same pot.
00:07:02Small margins, Winter.
00:07:03Look, how am I supposed to know that some plants don't get on?
00:07:09Looks like more police are arriving.
00:07:15Do you think I should go up there?
00:07:18Then do what?
00:07:19I don't actually know.
00:07:21I mean, how do brothers brother?
00:07:30There.
00:07:33Where did you get to last night?
00:07:41I woke up and you weren't there.
00:07:42I, uh, I had a nightmare.
00:07:44I took a walk to calm down.
00:07:49Look, if your brother needs you, he will tell you.
00:07:59Hello?
00:08:01Here's a new one for you.
00:08:03The poor fellow was pecked to death.
00:08:07Pecked?
00:08:08We didn't realize it was the murder weapon until it struck the hour and stabbed one of my
00:08:13sockers.
00:08:14He's lucky he's tall.
00:08:16Well, to all of them, the victim.
00:08:17Watch this.
00:08:19Um, better stand back first.
00:08:24Further?
00:08:24Well, I've seen everything now.
00:08:36The victim's name was Brad Furbank, aged 29.
00:08:42Time of death?
00:08:43Judging from his lividity and rigor, I'd say he'd been dead at least five hours.
00:08:48Well, that will put it about three o'clock this morning.
00:08:50Who found him?
00:08:51The lady of the house.
00:08:53Myrtle Bruce.
00:08:54She lives here with her husband, Sir Alan.
00:08:57Where was the clock hanging?
00:08:58It was level with that ghoulish portrait.
00:09:02The cuckoo stabbed Brad and he came tumbling down the stairs.
00:09:05Well, it seems they were right all along.
00:09:09Time is indeed the enemy.
00:09:15I couldn't believe it.
00:09:17Brad was just lying at the foot of the stairs.
00:09:20What time was this?
00:09:22Probably about seven.
00:09:24You hadn't heard anything before that, say around three this morning?
00:09:28I had a bit too much to drink last night.
00:09:31So I was out like a light.
00:09:37Don't look at me.
00:09:38I tend to sleep the sleep of the just.
00:09:41Quiet.
00:09:43Tell me about Brad.
00:09:45Presumably he lived here with you.
00:09:47Oh, goodness, no.
00:09:48He's been staying at the Raging Stag.
00:09:50It's a pub in the village.
00:09:52Would either of you know why he came here in the middle of the night?
00:09:59I hadn't a clue what Brad was doing here.
00:10:01Presumably he was coming to see you.
00:10:03But he knew I was out last night with my friends, carrying on the celebrations.
00:10:09So it was our engagement party yesterday.
00:10:13It's all right.
00:10:14I'm here.
00:10:15When did you get back to Godly Manor?
00:10:17I didn't.
00:10:18My friends and I crashed at Cordelia's flat.
00:10:21I saw it.
00:10:21I can't believe this.
00:10:23I'm sorry.
00:10:23I just have a few more questions.
00:10:28When did you last see Brad?
00:10:29Yesterday evening, before I left with my friends.
00:10:33That was around nine, I think.
00:10:35And did anything untoward happen before then?
00:10:37Does the arrival of an uncle we never knew we had qualify?
00:10:41The clock was a gift.
00:10:43From a brother-in-law I didn't know I had.
00:10:46It's a long story.
00:10:48I'd still like to hear it.
00:10:49Well, my father, Sir Percival Bruce, sired Noah out of wedlock.
00:10:55Noah?
00:10:55Noah Connoboy.
00:10:57Now, I had no idea he existed until the family solicitor told me at my father's funeral.
00:11:02Was this recently?
00:11:03It was about six weeks ago.
00:11:06So I asked Brad to search for him.
00:11:09He's very good at the internet.
00:11:11Well, was.
00:11:12So Noah turned up with the clock?
00:11:16Yes, he said that he'd made it especially for the occasion.
00:11:19Shall I save you some time?
00:11:21The only reason Noah's here is to claim his share.
00:11:25Oh, so you think Sir Alan was the intended target?
00:11:27A child of five could tell you that.
00:11:30So, off you trot and go and arrest Noah.
00:11:33He'll be outside, contaminating our grounds.
00:11:35What my darling wife means is that Noah's arrived with his troupe.
00:11:40They put on oldie-worldie woodworking festivals.
00:11:43Very popular, apparently.
00:11:44Brings people from far and wide.
00:11:46So we don't need some limp flower festival when we can replace it with something much more popular.
00:11:55Did Brad work in the village?
00:11:57He could work anywhere.
00:11:59He was in Bitcoin.
00:12:00He was doing really well.
00:12:01Always on his phone, checking the markets.
00:12:03So you didn't have an argument with someone in godly buzzards, hey?
00:12:07Oh, Brad, never.
00:12:09He was really popular.
00:12:10My sister can vouch for that.
00:12:11He was lovely.
00:12:13Never seen Frankie as happy.
00:12:19You know, I nearly came to the flower festival last year.
00:12:22Would have been a waste of time.
00:12:24It was rained off.
00:12:25Worst thunderstorm in decades.
00:12:27Destroyed all the flower beds.
00:12:28It was an absolute disaster.
00:12:30Well, hopefully it'll be different this year.
00:12:32No chance.
00:12:34The village have boycotted it.
00:12:35Our magnanimous father decided to charge double this year, which made a lot of people very angry.
00:12:41We're looking for a Noah Connor boy.
00:13:03That will be me.
00:13:04Oh, I saw you earlier.
00:13:06But you were, um, a bit taller.
00:13:09Oh, yeah.
00:13:10Yeah, no, I get that a lot.
00:13:15Uh, sorry, I'm Nessie.
00:13:17Nessie Copeland.
00:13:18What's happening up at the house?
00:13:20I'm afraid we have reason to believe that, um, Brad Furbank was murdered last night.
00:13:25Murdered?
00:13:27Are you serious?
00:13:28That's awful.
00:13:29Well, what can you tell us about the cuckoo clock?
00:13:34It tells the time.
00:13:36What else is there to say?
00:13:37Did you build it yourself?
00:13:39I craft everything myself.
00:13:40Sorry, why are you asking about a cuckoo clock?
00:13:42It's spring had been tightened to a murderous degree.
00:13:48A sharp piece of metal had been attached to the cuckoo's beak.
00:13:51The second it chimed, it sprang out, and...
00:13:54I'm sure you can work out the rest.
00:13:57Everyone saw the clock yesterday.
00:13:59There wasn't anything attached to the beak.
00:14:02Um, there was a woman taking photos.
00:14:05That'll prove it.
00:14:06Uh, I think she was called Kimony.
00:14:09Runs the flower shop in the village.
00:14:10This has nothing to do with Noah.
00:14:14Did either of you notice anything, um, off at the engagement party?
00:14:18I-I wasn't there.
00:14:20I was here with the others setting up.
00:14:21There's a lot to do.
00:14:22Alan wants me to put on a festival.
00:14:25He couldn't get me here quick enough.
00:14:26Did you know your father owned all of this?
00:14:28I was born in the village.
00:14:30It wasn't long before my mother up sticks.
00:14:33But she often told me about this place.
00:14:37Is that your way of saying that you did know?
00:14:41When you put it like that, I guess it is.
00:14:48Well, sir, Noah could have been trying to kill Sir Alan,
00:14:51because there's obviously something to gain.
00:14:53I can see it now.
00:14:53He-he sneaks back up to the house, rigs the clock,
00:14:55and then potentially inherits the lot.
00:14:57But how would he know Sir Alan was going to get so close to it,
00:15:00and at the exact time?
00:15:04Fleur.
00:15:04It's called a dibbler.
00:15:06Say that again.
00:15:07Gardeners use it to make holes in the ground.
00:15:09Oh, thanks as ever, Fleur.
00:15:11I'm still talking.
00:15:12The so-called emeralds in its eyes are paste,
00:15:15and the beak is gold plate.
00:15:18May look a million dollars,
00:15:19but it's worth less than a real cooker.
00:15:25Well, the piece of metal attached to the beak is called a dibbler.
00:15:28Um, what's a dibbler when it's at home?
00:15:30If you'd bothered looking after your houseplants, Winter,
00:15:32you would know that a dibbler is a tool that gardeners use.
00:15:37And now murderers, apparently.
00:15:45Sorry, mate.
00:15:46We don't need the extra kegs.
00:15:49Blame the village for boycotting the flower festival.
00:15:51I'm not going to shift a tenth of what I normally do this time of year.
00:15:54Sorry, pal.
00:16:00Mr. Solanke?
00:16:01Were you aware that Brad had gone up to Godly Manor
00:16:12in the early hours of this morning?
00:16:14Did he?
00:16:15I didn't know.
00:16:16When was the last time you saw him?
00:16:18Last night, just before I locked up.
00:16:21Did you notice anything unusual at the engagement party?
00:16:24Not really, no.
00:16:26Well, not unless you count that moment with Kimony.
00:16:30Kimony?
00:16:30Kimony Bullitt.
00:16:32Brad told her not to do the flowers for the wedding,
00:16:34and she seemed quite annoyed, but not murderously so.
00:16:39And did you see the clock being hung on the wall?
00:16:41Everyone saw it.
00:16:42It was a work of art.
00:16:44Wish I had skills like that.
00:16:45I can barely put up a shelf.
00:16:47Should have listened to her mother and done a corset.
00:16:48Thank you, Mr. Solanke.
00:16:50My team will obviously need access to Brad's room.
00:16:54Why he wasn't killed here?
00:16:57We need to go through Brad's things.
00:16:59And we're still to locate his phone, for one thing.
00:17:02I see.
00:17:03Problem?
00:17:04No, no.
00:17:05Not at all.
00:17:05Well, there must have been a sale on at the mirror shop.
00:17:25Well, we've got a charger.
00:17:29But still no sign of a phone.
00:17:31Sounds to me like someone doesn't want it to be found.
00:17:36Dr. Perkins?
00:17:37Hey, fever.
00:17:38I know the feeling.
00:17:39There you are.
00:17:39Within five yards of a mustard plant.
00:17:43Diamond?
00:17:44Not real this time.
00:17:46That's probably Frankie's.
00:17:47Brad liked to splash out on her.
00:17:49Please remove yourself, Mr. Solanke.
00:17:53I've never seen anything like this.
00:17:55Well, not for real.
00:17:57It's my mum wanting me to do a course in forensics.
00:18:06Will you be done soon?
00:18:07I'm afraid you're asking the wrong person, Mrs. Solanke.
00:18:11Fleur?
00:18:11We're done.
00:18:20We're done.
00:18:21For now.
00:18:22We're done.
00:18:52What are you doing, Kimini?
00:19:17It's me.
00:19:18Being you doesn't exonerate you, Sylvia.
00:19:20Brad's just been murdered, for goodness sake.
00:19:22Surely you can be a bit lenient.
00:19:23I'm in shock.
00:19:24Then you shouldn't be out driving in the first place.
00:19:27This isn't just a speeding offence.
00:19:29It's a whole lot more than that.
00:19:31And you know it.
00:19:36Is this you for the rest of your life now?
00:19:38Punishing drivers day and night?
00:19:40The boycott of the flower festival can't be helping business.
00:19:57The village are furious for Sir Alan.
00:19:58He tried to turn a quaint tradition into a corporate cash grab.
00:20:04I heard he doubled the entrance fee.
00:20:05Almost tripled it, if you include having to pay for parking.
00:20:06Oh, which reminds me, I need to make a note of Sylvia's speeding offence.
00:20:12I send them in every Monday, first thing.
00:20:15Noah Connoboy said you took some photos that included the cuckoo clock.
00:20:21Uh, I'll need you to email that to me.
00:20:25Oh.
00:20:39Well, I'll need you to email that to me.
00:20:41I'll need you to email that to me.
00:20:47Of course.
00:20:50Usually this time of year there's a queue all the way from the green to get in here.
00:20:54You can't have been happy with Sir Alan.
00:20:56That's an understatement.
00:20:58Yet still you went to the engagement party.
00:21:02Myrtle and I have been friends for decades.
00:21:05I could hardly let her down on Frankie's big day.
00:21:11Have you sold any of these lately?
00:21:17Who needs a dibbler when there's no flower festival?
00:21:20Thanks to Sir Alan, I couldn't give them away right now.
00:21:24I know a very good jeweller if you want to sell that ring.
00:21:41How could you be so thoughtless?
00:21:43There's no need to bite my head off.
00:21:45We're all trying to process what happened.
00:21:47It's not just you, Frankie. It's a big loss for us as well.
00:21:50This is my pain. It's not yours.
00:21:53Don't you dare try and hijack it.
00:21:55Look, why don't we try to concentrate on the positives?
00:21:58We've got this wonderful festival of wood, thanks to Noah,
00:22:01and we'll have tons of people streaming in, and that's mainly down to Brad.
00:22:04God rest his soul.
00:22:06My word, these people. No one's going to pay to see a freak show.
00:22:10Au contraire, my dear. It'll be the height of popularity.
00:22:13We were in the middle of talking.
00:22:15I'm sorry, dear. I thought you'd said your piece.
00:22:18Why did it have to be Brad that got killed, and not one of you?
00:22:24Mom.
00:22:44Hello.
00:22:45Oh, hello again.
00:22:47How can I help?
00:22:49I do flowers for all occasions.
00:22:51A good thing, too.
00:22:53Now we've got a funeral coming up.
00:22:55Oh, God. I didn't think.
00:22:57Don't worry. It's easy.
00:22:59I'm not here about flowers.
00:23:01A little birdie told me you're the head of the village council.
00:23:04Someone's got to keep this place in order.
00:23:06Perfect.
00:23:07Because I need to know about the grounds at Godly Manor.
00:23:10Only we were due to put on a festival of wood.
00:23:13Badger's Drift a few weeks back, but the village voted against it.
00:23:17Even though we were holding our event on private land.
00:23:20Well, there are a few archaic laws floating around.
00:23:24Alan got me here so quickly I didn't have a chance to check.
00:23:28You're putting on a festival at the manor?
00:23:30He said it was to replace a flower day or something.
00:23:34I see.
00:23:36He thinks it could become a permanent thing if it goes well, which it always does.
00:23:41Noah?
00:23:42Sweetheart.
00:23:43Can we get back now?
00:23:46Yes, yes.
00:23:48Be an angel and find out about those bylaws.
00:23:50Sure.
00:23:57Call me back when you get this.
00:23:59I'm not 100%, but you will not believe who I just saw.
00:24:03I'm getting bad vibes about this place.
00:24:16I think we should pack up and go.
00:24:18And leave my brother at his lowest ebb.
00:24:21You know why you're really here.
00:24:24He's using you.
00:24:26His flower festival isn't happening and he needed something to take its place.
00:24:29I wasn't born yesterday, Des.
00:24:31You're happy to be used?
00:24:33Credit me with some brains.
00:24:35I want something out of this as well.
00:24:37Look around.
00:24:39I'm owed half of this.
00:24:41Noah, you promised me.
00:24:43You said it would be two or three days at the most.
00:24:46That was before we got here.
00:24:48Well, I'm not staying here a second longer than I have to.
00:24:50What's got into you?
00:24:51There's someone who grew up around here.
00:24:53I thought he'd enjoy being back.
00:24:56I hate it here.
00:24:57What?
00:24:58Why would you say that?
00:25:00After this weekend, we are leaving.
00:25:02We are never coming back.
00:25:05I mean it, Noah.
00:25:13Call me back when you get this.
00:25:14I'm not 100%, but you will not believe who I just saw.
00:25:32Kimberly, I just got your message.
00:25:38Oh my God.
00:25:39Are you sure it's her?
00:25:43I can't.
00:25:44I just can't.
00:25:46Not while there's breath in my body.
00:25:54You're not working today.
00:25:55Ah, blame Winter for running late.
00:25:57Did you know he got dumped last year because he planted some flowers the wrong way?
00:26:01It's the little things in life, John.
00:26:02You've got to get them just right.
00:26:04But don't worry.
00:26:05You're getting there.
00:26:07So, what do you think so far would Granddad approve?
00:26:09If you don't mind me saying, it looks a bit lopsided.
00:26:12Very funny.
00:26:15Oh, I see where you've been going wrong.
00:26:17Here, look.
00:26:18You've had this upside down.
00:26:19You tear that and you're in big trouble.
00:26:24Oh, Penny!
00:26:25Oh, Penny!
00:26:26Oh, Penny!
00:26:27Ow!
00:26:29It's all right.
00:26:30I can dry it off.
00:26:32Look, I will finish that off as soon as I get a moment.
00:26:35Did I mention carpenters in my jeans?
00:26:38I'll just grab the first aid box.
00:26:47Tell me what's wrong with this picture, Winter.
00:26:50Cuckoo's the only one that's smiling.
00:26:53Look at the clock.
00:26:55It's not level with the top of the painting.
00:26:57Fleur said it was level with Sir Alan's portrait, but here it's at least four inches lower.
00:27:02So someone moved it.
00:27:04Look who is level with the portrait.
00:27:06Brad.
00:27:07Which most likely means he was the intended target after all.
00:27:12Well, talking of Brad, sir, here's a strange one.
00:27:15Tech managed to get into his laptop, but as far as they could tell, he wasn't doing anything in Bitcoin.
00:27:18Truth is, he barely had a penny to his name.
00:27:21Then how did he pay for Frankie's engagement rate?
00:27:23Well, there's no sign of it in his accounts or credit card statements.
00:27:27Also, we heard back from his mobile phone provider and they confirmed that his phone was switched off at the time of the murder.
00:27:32Presumably, they sent over a record of his recent calls and texts.
00:27:35Yeah, nothing unusual out of the ordinary.
00:27:41Also, sir, there is this.
00:27:43This was found under Brad's bed at the pub.
00:27:46Now, I presume that it belongs to Frankie, but I think it's worth checking.
00:27:54Did anything come back on Kim and E. Bullitt?
00:27:56Ah, yes. I found out that her husband was killed in a hit and run a year ago.
00:28:01The driver was never traced.
00:28:03That explains the speed gun and her devotion to catching errant drivers.
00:28:07Intriguingly, the hit and run happened on the same day that the flower festival was rained off.
00:28:10In almost exactly a year to the day, Brad Furbank is pecked to death, as Fleur so eloquently put it.
00:28:19If he didn't know that the emeralds and gold were fake, imagine what seeing them might mean to him.
00:28:25Someone who's not only penniless, but also a proven liar.
00:28:30You mean he went there to steal it?
00:28:32Why else would he be there at three in the morning?
00:28:34So someone booby-trapped the bird and then rehung the clock, knowing that he would come for it.
00:28:39That's exactly what they did, Winter.
00:28:45Now, I'll speak to Frankie. You talk to her sister, Sylvia.
00:28:49I want to find out what they did or didn't know about Brad.
00:28:52Well, and while you're at it, I need a book.
00:28:57A book?
00:28:59On, um...
00:29:00Woodwork.
00:29:01My sweet heart come along, don't you hear the fond song, the sweet note of the nightingale flow?
00:29:14Don't you hear the fond tale of the sweet nightingale, as she sings in those valleys below?
00:29:21Oh, sorry. We don't open until tomorrow. I'm not a visitor. All the same.
00:29:38I'm Frankie. Oh, I mean Francesca, Bruce. Myrtle and Alan's daughter.
00:29:44Oh, I'm so sorry about what happened to your fiancé.
00:29:49Oh.
00:29:53That actually means more than you realise.
00:29:55I'm Nessie.
00:29:56Noah's partner. Were you looking for him?
00:29:58No.
00:29:59I just needed to go on a wander.
00:30:05How long will you be here for?
00:30:07Oh.
00:30:08Hopefully just for the weekend, if I can convince Noah.
00:30:11Well, he wants to stay longer.
00:30:13He thinks he can make a permanent home here.
00:30:16Has he told my father that?
00:30:18Doesn't matter if he has.
00:30:19I'm gonna convince him to up sticks.
00:30:22Couldn't hit me with you.
00:30:23Could you?
00:30:24That was a joke.
00:30:25Well, sort of.
00:30:28Frankie, if you wanna get away, then do it.
00:30:31I did the same myself, years ago.
00:30:33Left godly buzzard and never looked back.
00:30:37And now you're the singing stilts lady.
00:30:39And I can see for miles and miles, to the horizon and beyond.
00:30:44I'd love to try that one day.
00:30:49Please?
00:30:53Let's see if you've got a head for heights.
00:30:55Wow.
00:30:56You're right.
00:30:57You can see everything.
00:30:58Frankie.
00:30:59You have a moment.
00:31:01Do me a very large favour, Sylvia.
00:31:02Slap these up everywhere.
00:31:03I'm working.
00:31:04Yes, but you also have a civil duty to assist any knight of the realm whenever he should so request.
00:31:05For God's sake, Dad.
00:31:06You're not a civil duty.
00:31:07You're not a civil duty to assist any knight of the realm whenever he should so request.
00:31:08For God's sake, Dad.
00:31:09You're not a sir.
00:31:10Grandad was the sir.
00:31:11You don't inherit that title.
00:31:12You have to have it bestowed.
00:31:13Yes, well, I was a DIY bestowment.
00:31:14Really shot my bloody ear off, actually.
00:31:15You're not a sir.
00:31:16You're not a sir.
00:31:17You're not a sir.
00:31:18Grandad was the sir.
00:31:19You don't inherit that title.
00:31:20You have to have it bestowed.
00:31:21Yes, well, I was a DIY bestowment.
00:31:22Really shot my bloody ear off, actually.
00:31:23Ah!
00:31:24Have you found the culprit?
00:31:25The investigation's still ongoing.
00:31:26Well, chop, chop, because the wonderful Noah's Bar is opening tomorrow morning,
00:31:2910 a.m.
00:31:30a.m.
00:31:31a.m.
00:31:32This is a very large favour, Sylvia.
00:31:33Slap these up everywhere.
00:31:34I'm working.
00:31:35Yes, but you also have a civil duty to assist any knight of the realm whenever he should so
00:31:36request.
00:31:37For God's sake, Dad.
00:31:38You're not a sir.
00:31:39Grandad was the sir.
00:31:40You don't inherit that title.
00:31:41You have to have it bestowed.
00:31:42Yes, well, I was a DIY bestowment.
00:31:43Really shot my bloody ear off, actually.
00:31:44Ah!
00:31:45Have you found the culprit?
00:31:46The investigation's still ongoing.
00:31:47Well, chop, chop, because the wonderful Noah's Bar is opening tomorrow morning, 10 a.m. sharp.
00:31:57More questions?
00:31:58Yes.
00:31:59Do you mind if I step inside?
00:32:04Miss Bruce, can you start by telling me what you really thought of Brad?
00:32:09I already made that clear.
00:32:11I liked him.
00:32:12A lot.
00:32:13Presumably you didn't know that he was a con man and a thief.
00:32:16I'm sorry.
00:32:17He was what?
00:32:18We found antihistamine in Brad's room at the pub.
00:32:21It's for hay fever.
00:32:23What sort on earth was he doing showing up at a flower festival?
00:32:26And that makes him a thief?
00:32:28Well, there's a good chance that he was casing the house with the intention of robbing it
00:32:31later.
00:32:32It's a well-known ploy.
00:32:33Stately homes throw open their doors, but they never truly know who they're inviting
00:32:36inside.
00:32:37Brad did nothing of the sort.
00:32:38All he did was meet my sister and fall madly in love.
00:32:41Or he realized that there was more to gain from seducing Frankie and marrying into the
00:32:46family.
00:32:47Please stop.
00:32:48This is awful.
00:32:49I've never seen it before.
00:32:54Where did you find it?
00:32:56It was in Brad's room at the pub.
00:33:03This earring.
00:33:06It doesn't mean he was.
00:33:08No, Brad wouldn't do that to me.
00:33:14How did you meet?
00:33:15It was on the eve of last year's War of the Roses festival.
00:33:20We had a private preview.
00:33:22We ended up talking, so I took him on a tour of the house.
00:33:25He asked to see inside?
00:33:27He seemed really keen.
00:33:29I got the impression he liked me.
00:33:33How much did you know about his Bitcoin business?
00:33:36Only what he told me, but he was doing great.
00:33:39I'm afraid he was lying to you, Frankie.
00:33:41You didn't have a penny to his name.
00:33:43Of course he did.
00:33:45Have you seen this ring?
00:33:46Why would he say that?
00:33:47He was overdrawn and owed money everywhere.
00:33:49No, he was always splashing out on me.
00:33:52You need to get your facts straight.
00:34:02Please don't let this be true.
00:34:05It's been hard enough trying to convince my parents I'm worthy of their love and...
00:34:11Now this.
00:34:16Is that all you wanted?
00:34:17Only my father's given me a job to do.
00:34:19Were you around when Kimmy's husband was killed in the hit and run?
00:34:22What's that got to do with what happened to Brad?
00:34:25Well, we're aware that he showed up at Godly Manor the same day that it happened.
00:34:28I remember spotting him with Frankie and wondering who he was, but I didn't give it another thought.
00:34:34Not till she introduced him a few weeks later.
00:34:37I need to get on.
00:34:39Oh, and I need a book.
00:34:42On woodwork.
00:34:43Do you have children, Chief Inspector?
00:34:56A daughter.
00:34:58And you love her, right?
00:35:01You love her with every fibre of your being.
00:35:04Well, can you imagine what it's like when the opposite is true?
00:35:10Can you imagine what that would be like for your daughter?
00:35:15I can't see myself being anything other than in awe of her.
00:35:19That's because you didn't bring her into this world for all the wrong reasons.
00:35:28I had a brother, Chief Inspector.
00:35:31Frances.
00:35:33Well, what I mean when I say I had a brother is he died when he was just over a year old.
00:35:38And I was conceived shortly afterwards, but solely in the hope that my parents could somehow recreate him.
00:35:49Myrtle, it was so long ago.
00:35:53I was probably seeing things.
00:35:56Don't backtrack now.
00:35:58Something made you think you saw Aggie Marlowe.
00:36:00Now, what was it?
00:36:02It was the way she wouldn't look at me.
00:36:05Like she didn't want to be recognised.
00:36:08Perhaps you could have her arrested this time around.
00:36:11What are you talking about?
00:36:13The police said Frances' death was due to natural causes.
00:36:16There's no arrest happening here.
00:36:17No, sometimes you have to take things into your own hands.
00:36:23You don't mean that, do you?
00:36:26Mattel?
00:36:29You're scaring me.
00:36:34Apparently my parents were out at an afternoon due with my grandfather.
00:36:37And when my mother came back, she found Frances dead on the floor.
00:36:42He'd fallen out of his cot.
00:36:44They'd left him on his own?
00:36:45No, they had a babysitter.
00:36:47Aggie Marlowe.
00:36:48But she vanished into thin air.
00:36:50Sylvia said it broke my parents in half.
00:36:53Until one of them had the desperately sad idea of making another Frances.
00:36:58Hence my name.
00:37:01So they went ahead.
00:37:03And sadly for them, I emerged.
00:37:07And that is when they realised that they couldn't get Frances back.
00:37:11But worse, because they were saddled with someone every day
00:37:15who reminds them that I'm not their precious son.
00:37:18So I'm sorry, that maybe it wasn't a cat that you were able to make it?
00:37:19That was a good idea.
00:37:20I'm not having trouble.
00:37:21I'm not having trouble.
00:37:22Because I'm not having trouble with all of them.
00:37:23And I was impressed with other people.
00:37:25Think about this.
00:37:27Who's a cool guy.
00:37:28But how many are you?
00:37:29And what are you doing?
00:37:31And what are you doing?
00:37:32I'm still not a little bit like I'm not gonna have.
00:37:35It's fine.
00:37:37That's what you're doing.
00:37:38I'm not a little bit nervous.
00:37:39I'm not a little bit nervous.
00:37:41He's been telling you that I'm not mourning.
00:37:43I'm not a little bit nervous.
00:37:45But I'm not a little bit nervous,
00:37:47PIANO PLAYS
00:38:17There, best I could do, sir. Is it for Mrs. Bean?
00:38:28Thank you, Winter.
00:38:30Yes, Sarah's struggling a bit with the arbour.
00:38:33She even managed to injure her thumb.
00:38:36Well, I'm sure she'd be glad of this.
00:38:38So, did Frankie recognise the earring?
00:38:41In a word, no.
00:38:44Oh, well, that puts a cat among the pigeons.
00:38:46The bride must have been seeing someone else.
00:38:50Dears, Winter.
00:38:52Okay.
00:38:54Yeah, thanks.
00:38:56Sir, we've had an anonymous call for withheld numbers.
00:39:00A woman saying that she's very worried about an Aggie Marlowe being back in Godly Buzzard.
00:39:05We don't know an Aggie Marlowe, do we?
00:39:07I think we do, Winter.
00:39:10The Aggie is short for Agnes, which can also be shortened to Nessie.
00:39:15Perhaps you should go and have a chat with her.
00:39:17No, honey.
00:39:19It's a badduck.
00:39:24I do?
00:39:26No, come on.
00:39:39Who the hell are you?
00:39:48What are you doing in here?
00:39:51You don't remember.
00:39:54You couldn't keep your hands off me the last time we met.
00:39:58Aggie!
00:40:01This is Frances' room.
00:40:02How dare you!
00:40:05I was looking all over for you, Myrtle.
00:40:06And then I saw Frances' name on the door.
00:40:10And I couldn't help myself.
00:40:12If Myrtle were here, God knows what she would do to you.
00:40:15She's who I came here to see.
00:40:18I'm going to tell her what really happened that day.
00:40:22Noah is dead set on staying here.
00:40:23And the only way I get to stay here with him is if Myrtle and everyone else knows
00:40:27you are the reason why Frances died.
00:40:30As if anyone's going to believe you.
00:40:32And do you know what the best thing is?
00:40:34You brought Noah back here.
00:40:36Which means you brought me back here too.
00:40:39Everything comes home to roost eventually.
00:40:41That's enough!
00:40:41I'm not having this!
00:40:42Oh!
00:40:43Ah!
00:40:43Ah!
00:40:48Ah!
00:40:48Ah!
00:40:48Ah!
00:40:49Ah!
00:40:50Ah!
00:40:50Ah!
00:40:51Ah!
00:40:51Ah!
00:40:51Ah!
00:40:52Ah!
00:40:52Ah!
00:40:53Ah!
00:40:54Ah!
00:40:55Ah!
00:40:56Ah!
00:40:57Ah!
00:40:58Ah!
00:40:59Ah!
00:41:00Ah!
00:41:01Ah!
00:41:02Ah!
00:41:03Ah!
00:41:04Ah!
00:41:05Ah!
00:41:05Ah!
00:41:06Ah!
00:41:06Ah!
00:41:32Ah!
00:41:33You've joined a library.
00:41:36Oh, er, Winter borrowed it. He said he thought he might need it.
00:41:41That's so nice of him.
00:41:42I thought we could look through it together.
00:41:44Why would we need to do that?
00:41:47When you've got the blood of a master carpenter running through you.
00:41:50You don't need this. Not when it comes so naturally to you.
00:41:54Do I have to get any splinters?
00:42:03Winter. Impeccable timing.
00:42:08Oh, you found Nessie. What did she say?
00:42:14I'll be right there.
00:42:24A little bird tells me, not a cuckoo this time, you were looking for Agnes Marlowe.
00:42:31The good news is you found her.
00:42:33But the bad news is someone else found her first.
00:42:36Talk us through it, Fleur.
00:42:38Judging from the angle of the attack, I'd say she was approached from behind.
00:42:42And the billhook did the rest.
00:42:45The what?
00:42:46Billhook, Winter.
00:42:48It's a highly versatile cutting tool. My grandfather had one.
00:42:51Same sort of tool you might find in Noah's bark.
00:42:53You look 10% more handsome when you say something intelligent.
00:42:57I'll have to set you brain teasers up the percentage.
00:43:01Time of death, Fleur?
00:43:03I'd put it somewhere yesterday evening.
00:43:05And the killer just left the weapon lying around?
00:43:07It was stuffed behind that fallen log over there.
00:43:10I'd start with Noah.
00:43:14Before you loaf off, she was carrying this.
00:43:18But I wouldn't get too excited.
00:43:21I don't think he's the killer.
00:43:27What the hell?
00:43:29They're not letting the public in.
00:43:31Well, what did you expect?
00:43:33Agnes Marlowe was murdered last night.
00:43:35Yes, that person was a blight on our family.
00:43:37Yes, and of course we know who brought her here, don't we?
00:43:41Now, Noah couldn't have possibly known who she was.
00:43:44How do we know that?
00:43:45I don't trust a thing about him.
00:43:47Ever since he arrived, terrible things have happened.
00:43:49Is really that terrible that Aggy's dead?
00:43:51You know full well what I mean.
00:43:53I want him gone, Alan.
00:43:55It's all right.
00:43:56I saw her at a folk festival.
00:44:09She was the most beautiful girl I'd ever set eyes on.
00:44:14We started chatting and realized we'd both lived in godly buzz at once.
00:44:19From that point on, we never left each other's side.
00:44:23Ended up creating all this.
00:44:26Did you know that Nessie had changed her name from Aggie?
00:44:30Aggie?
00:44:31No.
00:44:33She was always Nessie to me.
00:44:35Well, she never mentioned that she used to babysit for the Bruises.
00:44:40She never said a word.
00:44:43How did she react after Brad found you?
00:44:47To be honest, she didn't want me to come here.
00:44:51When we pitched up, she got pretty nervy.
00:44:54Even had a nightmare the first night we stayed here.
00:44:57Had to get up and go for a wonder.
00:45:00Nessie said she never went up to the house.
00:45:02But did she encounter any of the Bruises other than Frankie?
00:45:06Not that I know of.
00:45:08Can you tell us where you were yesterday evening, Mr. Connerboy?
00:45:16Don't even go there.
00:45:20Ness was the love of my life.
00:45:24Mr. Connerboy.
00:45:25I was at the pub with Angel.
00:45:33We just finished setting up and deserved a pint or two.
00:45:37Did you say Angel?
00:45:39The axe man.
00:45:41He looks ferocious, but underneath he's a kitten.
00:45:43We believe that a tool from your troop was used in the attack on Nessie.
00:45:49A billhook.
00:45:52Is there one missing?
00:45:54I'd have to ask you around.
00:45:57Anyone could come in and take anything.
00:46:00It's not like we'd lock anything away.
00:46:02It's not like we'd lock anything away.
00:46:28Saj, what are you doing?
00:46:30Waiting for you to join me.
00:46:33Here.
00:46:37I don't understand.
00:46:39I want to make a toast to Brad.
00:46:41He lived there for a year and I'm gonna miss him.
00:46:44Saj, you may as well know.
00:46:46Police are saying he was a con man.
00:46:48No way. A con man?
00:46:50Did you know?
00:46:52Or ever get a sense of it?
00:46:54Like you said, he was here a whole year.
00:46:56Me? Nah.
00:46:58Poor Frankie.
00:47:00Are you sure you didn't know?
00:47:02Are you sure you didn't?
00:47:03What does that mean?
00:47:04I don't know.
00:47:06I always thought you had a bit of a thing for him.
00:47:08A thing?
00:47:09What thing?
00:47:10Why would you say that?
00:47:11Well, you're always so keen on him, always bigging him up.
00:47:14What says he's number one fan?
00:47:16That wasn't me.
00:47:17No way.
00:47:18You've fawned all over him.
00:47:19In fact, you changed personality whenever he was around.
00:47:22Aye, well.
00:47:23Maybe it's a good thing he's not around anymore, eh?
00:47:30Lucas.
00:47:32This is crazy.
00:47:34None of this matters now he's gone.
00:47:36I'm sorry.
00:47:39I didn't mean to say any of that.
00:47:42Same.
00:47:44Normal service has resumed.
00:47:50Best make a different toast, hmm?
00:47:53Hmm?
00:47:55Out with the bad and all that.
00:47:58Out with the brad, more like.
00:48:05What was Nessie doing out here on her own?
00:48:07Maybe she was meeting someone.
00:48:09What, with a teddy bear?
00:48:11I'll get tech to check out her phone calls and texts.
00:48:15Also, have them chase up the anonymous tip
00:48:18about Aggie Marlow being back in the village.
00:48:21She was killed almost immediately afterwards,
00:48:23so whoever called us was really worried.
00:48:25You think one of the bruises found out she was back?
00:48:28I'll go and see.
00:48:34This is the last place I saw Francis alive.
00:48:37I gave him a cuddle before Alan and I
00:48:39took Sir Percival to a party.
00:48:43I'll never forgive myself for leaving him.
00:48:46And when you returned home?
00:48:49I stayed longer than planned.
00:48:51It was Kim and his fault she could chat for England.
00:48:53Alan had wandered off ages before.
00:48:56When I got back, there was no sign of Aggie anywhere.
00:49:02And then I found Francis.
00:49:04Lying right there.
00:49:06Not moving.
00:49:11Lady Myrtle, did you know that, um,
00:49:14Aggie Marlow was living on your grounds with Noah?
00:49:17Of course I didn't.
00:49:19You never met or saw her?
00:49:21I just said.
00:49:22I didn't know she was back.
00:49:23And trust me, if I had,
00:49:25Aggie would have been dead a lot sooner.
00:49:28I want that woman's body off our land.
00:49:32You know what she did to Myrtle and I?
00:49:34Where were you last night?
00:49:37Are you listening to me, Barnaby?
00:49:39It's Detective Chief Inspector, Barnaby.
00:49:43I was in my bed getting my beauty sleep in preparation for the grand opening,
00:49:47which actually won't be remotely grand now, thanks to Aggie Marlow.
00:49:51Were you aware that she was part of Noah's bar?
00:49:54What on earth are you talking about?
00:49:56It turns out she was Noah's partner, had been for years.
00:49:59My God, you couldn't make it up.
00:50:01Brad didn't happen to find that out when he was searching for Noah.
00:50:04Would I have invited him here if you had?
00:50:06If you wanted revenge for Francis, then yes, that's exactly what you would have done.
00:50:10Look, I invited Noah here simply to raise some cash.
00:50:14My father didn't exactly leave a pot of gold in his will,
00:50:17and these stately homes cost a fortune to maintain.
00:50:20On the outside, it looks like we've won the lottery.
00:50:21On the inside, we can barely afford a ticket.
00:50:24Well, there's still a house and grounds, though.
00:50:27And surely you knew that finding Noah could result in you having to hand over half of everything you'd inherited.
00:50:33You've met him? He's a hippie.
00:50:35They don't belong in houses like this. Anyway, he'll drift away soon enough.
00:50:39Did Brad know you were struggling financially?
00:50:42I admit, I was a little too keen to get Noah here, and someone like Brad might have noted that.
00:50:48Someone like Brad?
00:50:49He was a parasite. I didn't realize at first, but he was a tapeworm eating his way into our family.
00:51:01Sir?
00:51:02I called Saj Solanki, and he said that he remembers seeing Noah and the Axeman in the pub.
00:51:09It seems the Bruce's both had a strong motive for killing Nessie, and Sir Alan had an inkling that Brad wasn't the person he claimed to be.
00:51:18Talking of Brad, we know that he was desperate for money to keep up his lies and lifestyle, so all it would take is for his killer to know that as well.
00:51:28What about the person the diamond earring belongs to? It could be some kind of love rat thing.
00:51:35Elegantly put, Winter?
00:51:36Or Frankie found out that Brad was cheating on her and killed him in a fit of jealousy.
00:51:39I'm sure that's possible in your love rat world?
00:51:41She was also the only member of the Bruce family that we know for certain met Nessie.
00:51:46Ah, and you were doing so well, Winter.
00:51:48But Frankie hadn't been born when Nessie was babysitting for the Bruce's.
00:51:52It's doubtful she'd know her on sight.
00:51:55Here's a question for you.
00:51:57How does a penniless man rent a room in a pub for an entire year?
00:52:15Kimmy won't report you for speeding.
00:52:17There are mitigating circumstances just like you told her.
00:52:20You know what she's like. She takes her misery out on anyone she can find.
00:52:24I can't have points on my licence. I could lose my job.
00:52:28Well, come work here then. You'd probably earn more.
00:52:31If this world of woodenness takes off, this place will be packed.
00:52:35It's not the money. I happen to love that job.
00:52:39Mr. Solanke, a word if you don't mind.
00:52:43I thought you were all done here.
00:52:45How did Brad pay for his room and board?
00:52:48Like anyone else?
00:52:49He was penniless, Mr. Solanke.
00:52:51We can just go through your books.
00:52:54Right, well, the thing is, hindsight's a great thing.
00:52:58Right, but I kind of let Brad run up a tab.
00:53:03For an entire year?
00:53:05He was a nice guy. I totally trusted him.
00:53:08Tell them, Sylvia. You were always urging Frankie to marry him.
00:53:10You'll lead on that.
00:53:13Well, we have you.
00:53:15We found this in Brad's room. Have you seen that before?
00:53:19No, sorry.
00:53:21Did Brad ever have anyone other than Frankie back to his room?
00:53:23No, not that I ever saw.
00:53:26Fleur?
00:53:28Believe it or not, we're at the pub right now.
00:53:34We're going to need access to Brad's room again.
00:53:39It'll be fine. Don't worry.
00:53:40Don't worry.
00:53:56Oh, Noah.
00:53:57I'm so sorry. I just heard about Aggie.
00:54:02Aggie?
00:54:04I meant Nessie. You must be devastated.
00:54:08That answers everything.
00:54:11She called herself Nessie, yet you just called her Aggie.
00:54:14I know your big pals with Myrtle, my charming sister-in-law.
00:54:21Did you do the family a favor and tell them who Nessie really was?
00:54:26I think you should leave.
00:54:28I think I should go to the police, don't you?
00:54:31What is it called? Accessory to murder?
00:54:35Go on, then. I've done nothing wrong.
00:54:38I'll tell them you clearly recognized her,
00:54:40and they'll realize you're the only one who knew who she was.
00:54:46Why are you here?
00:54:49What do you want from me?
00:54:50That's better.
00:54:52I know I got permission to put on my festival,
00:54:55but what if I wanted to set up home there permanently
00:54:59with all my people?
00:55:01That's something else entirely.
00:55:03You're the head of the council.
00:55:04I'm sure you could make it happen.
00:55:05They already hate Sir Alan.
00:55:07I doubt they'd be too fond of you for riding to his rescue.
00:55:09We're talking about my home.
00:55:12A home I've been denied for far too long,
00:55:14so make it happen.
00:55:18What if I can't?
00:55:21This is my birthright.
00:55:23And I'm not gonna let anyone
00:55:25stand in the way of that.
00:55:26What are you doing?
00:55:42What's that for?
00:55:44Care to explain, Mr. Slunke?
00:55:46No idea.
00:55:48I was already there when I started running the police.
00:55:50Shall I keep going?
00:55:52Where is this leading, Fleur?
00:55:54I worked on a similar case once.
00:55:56There were mirrors all over the walls in that place as well.
00:55:58Clearly the idea took off.
00:56:00When I first encountered this sort of thing,
00:56:02my boss told me to touch the mirrors.
00:56:04With my fingernail.
00:56:05And my fingernail touched its reflection.
00:56:08What else would it touch?
00:56:10Index finger, please, Winter.
00:56:11Will you please, Winter?
00:56:15I promise not to buy it.
00:56:18If it were a normal mirror,
00:56:20your fingernail and its reflection would never meet.
00:56:22There'll always be a gap.
00:56:24Like so.
00:56:26But with a two-way mirror,
00:56:29finger touch his finger.
00:56:31And they're in every room, aren't they, Mr. Slunke?
00:56:45It's for security purposes.
00:56:47Try again, Mr. Slunke.
00:56:51Look.
00:56:53A lot of people book into hotels and not just to sleep.
00:56:56They meet up with lovers.
00:56:57Some of them do secret deals.
00:56:59I've heard them on the phone lying about their whereabouts.
00:57:02The list goes on.
00:57:04Half the people that come in here are up to no good.
00:57:07So you thought you'd make some money out of it?
00:57:10When did Brad find out you were doing this?
00:57:13First night he stayed.
00:57:15He accidentally knocked over the mirror onto the floor
00:57:17and he saw the camera behind it.
00:57:19But he didn't report you?
00:57:20He told me to lose the cameras in his room
00:57:23but keep the rest in the other rooms.
00:57:25He wanted in on it.
00:57:26In fact, he took over.
00:57:27He made me blackmail everyone that I could.
00:57:30And for the last year he's lived here rent-free
00:57:33in exchange for his silence.
00:57:35He's bled me dry in every way you can imagine.
00:57:38Including forcing you to buy Frankie's engagement ring.
00:57:41Well, how do you know that?
00:57:43We didn't until now.
00:57:45We'll need to look into Mr. Slunke's finances.
00:57:49Am I going to prison for this?
00:57:50At the moment I'm more interested in who Brad was seeing behind Frankie's back.
00:57:56Well, you wasn't seeing anyone.
00:57:58You're in enough trouble as it is, Mr. Slunke.
00:58:00I couldn't see anything before because then you'd come back and ask for proof and then you'd...
00:58:06Find out what you've been doing.
00:58:07She used to come in the back way.
00:58:11Obviously didn't know I had a hidden camera outside.
00:58:14But it was...
00:58:15Sylvia Bruce.
00:58:16Sylvia?
00:58:17No.
00:58:19It was her mum.
00:58:20Myrtle.
00:58:21Look at these idiots, sir.
00:58:44She can't give me a ticket.
00:58:47This is official police business.
00:58:49So's this.
00:58:50Just so you know, you can pass on my information, but it'll be up to the police if they decide to prosecute or not.
00:58:55And, well, I am the police.
00:58:58Well, we'll find out on Monday when I send in my data whether that helps or not.
00:59:07When will you ever learn, Cordelia?
00:59:10It's not 30 miles an hour through the village.
00:59:13And don't think you can get away with this at night either.
00:59:16I'm on guard 24-7.
00:59:18Sorry, Kimberly.
00:59:20I'll go halves on the phone.
00:59:21I can.
00:59:24Someone needs to take that speed gun off her.
00:59:27Drive on, Winter.
00:59:28Slowly.
00:59:29Would you like to know where we found this?
00:59:41You should know that Brad never loved Frankie. I mean, how could he? She's quite unlovable. Alan and I tried for years.
00:59:44When did you and Brad start seeing each other?
00:59:45Months ago. I rather felt for him, all that pretending he had to do.
00:59:48So the affair was still going on even at the engagement party. Did Sir Alan know?
00:59:49Doesn't matter if he did or he didn't.
00:59:50He disappeared the night Francis died.
00:59:51There's more life in his portrait.
00:59:52When did you last see Brad?
00:59:53When did you last see Brad?
00:59:54When he was lying dead in our hallway.
00:59:55Lady Myrtle.
00:59:56At the engagement party.
00:59:57And you were never worried that Sarge would see you at the pub and tell Frankie.
00:59:58I didn't go there often.
00:59:59And Brad seemed to have some hold over them.
01:00:00When you were going home with him.
01:00:01How'd he come home with me?
01:00:02She was not so.
01:00:03You know what, never.
01:00:04But when there was a burden of a happy house who died in this place.
01:00:05Death was the risk of a big house.
01:00:06But I think what I felt was a place before.
01:00:07But I didn't.
01:00:08And when I saw this was going home, I knew they were just going to be on to say the滿an.
01:00:09I just felt a bit of background.
01:00:10And I still felt it, you know.
01:00:12I turned around for him.
01:00:13All that pretending he had to do.
01:00:14So the affair was still going on even at the engagement party.
01:00:16Did Sir Alan know?
01:00:17Doesn't matter if he did or he didn't.
01:00:18He disappeared the night Francis died.
01:00:20There's more life in his portrait.
01:00:21You were never worried that Saj would see you at the pub and tell Frankie?
01:00:24I didn't go there often, and Brad seemed to have some hold over Saj.
01:00:29He said he wouldn't say a word if he knew what was good for him.
01:00:32Sadly for you, he can say whatever he wants now.
01:00:35What are you talking about?
01:00:36Saj has CCTV footage of you two arguing outside his pub the day before Brad died.
01:00:42What was the argument about?
01:00:44He'd found out that Alan and I aren't exactly wealthy.
01:00:47He was furious. He said I'd been leading him on.
01:00:50Did he break up with you?
01:00:51He threatened to.
01:00:52How did you feel about that?
01:00:54How do you think?
01:00:55Did you get the dibbler from Kim and his shop?
01:00:58All in to see her and slip one into your pocket?
01:01:00I wouldn't know a dibbler from a punch on the nose.
01:01:03And then you rigged the clock?
01:01:04Oh, this is ridiculous.
01:01:05Murder very often is Lady Myrtle.
01:01:11You're not going to bring Lady Myrtle in, sir?
01:01:13Sir Alan has already given her an alibi for the night Brad was killed.
01:01:16We need something concrete.
01:01:17Yes, Winter.
01:01:21Oh, okay.
01:01:22That was quick.
01:01:23Thanks.
01:01:24Sir, Tech have managed to trace the anonymous call regarding Aggie Marlowe.
01:01:29It was from Kimeny Bullet.
01:01:31Oh, of course it was.
01:01:33We already know she likes to share her findings with the police.
01:01:37Hop over to her shop and find out if she told anyone else.
01:01:40She was obviously worried about what might happen.
01:01:43Hello?
01:02:03Hello?
01:02:11You could have picked somewhere more accessible.
01:02:14I never liked that hill.
01:02:15There you are.
01:02:42Let me just catch my breath.
01:02:45Oh.
01:02:46Oh.
01:02:48Oh.
01:02:49Oh.
01:02:49Oh.
01:02:52Oh.
01:02:54Oh.
01:02:56Oh.
01:02:59Oh.
01:03:00Oh, my God.
01:03:30How's your thumb?
01:03:31Throbbing.
01:03:35Do you really think you can put that arbor together?
01:03:38Only I don't want it suddenly collapsing on Betty or her friends or on me, for that matter.
01:03:43That arbor will still be standing a hundred years from now.
01:03:47A monument to the inherited skills of a master craftsman.
01:03:53Right.
01:04:00Winter.
01:04:20What's that around her mouth?
01:04:21Fleur thinks it's some kind of industrial wood glue.
01:04:24Super strong.
01:04:24I'm afraid her lips are sealed, so I'll have to talk for her.
01:04:29It looks like someone stuck it to the chair, and then, if I'm right, they force-fed her with whatever was left in the glue gun.
01:04:36That's also covered in glue.
01:04:38Whoever it was tried to make it cozy and inviting.
01:04:42If only.
01:04:44Any idea where the chairs came from?
01:04:46Jetting from the finish, I'd say a craftsman, by that.
01:05:04Would you like a ticket?
01:05:05I'm afraid Kiminy Bullock was killed sometime last night.
01:05:27My God.
01:05:29I was wondering what had happened.
01:05:32Were you at the house?
01:05:34No.
01:05:34I stayed here last night.
01:05:37Noah's a bit lost right now, obviously, so I thought I could be there for him.
01:05:42You didn't see or hear anything?
01:05:44No.
01:05:46Sorry.
01:05:47This is awful.
01:05:49I've known Kiminy my whole life.
01:05:54Excuse me.
01:05:55Excuse me.
01:05:56Wood is so much more than we think it is.
01:06:16It has sheltered us, defended us, given up its body to us.
01:06:22Nessie came up with that.
01:06:24All of this was her idea, to show people how much they can learn and benefit from nature.
01:06:31And turn it into furniture, namely a pair of chairs.
01:06:34If you're looking to pin this on me, anyone could have come in here.
01:06:37You really shouldn't try locking things away, Mr. Connoboy.
01:06:40Someone needs to go and tell the crowds we won't be opening any time soon.
01:06:44They'll have to come back next year.
01:06:45You're planning on returning?
01:06:46I'm not actually planning on leaving.
01:06:47I was born here.
01:06:48I was born here.
01:06:49Nessie was born here.
01:06:50I belong here.
01:06:51I belong here.
01:06:52I belong here.
01:06:56I belong here.
01:07:00Hi, sir.
01:07:01Yeah, I'm in Kiminy's shop.
01:07:15Someone has been in here and...
01:07:16Looks like they've smashed up our laptop.
01:07:20Yeah.
01:07:27Is there anyone Kimony might have upset recently?
01:07:30If there was, she didn't tell me.
01:07:33We know she left an anonymous tip-off about Aggie Marlow being back in Godly Buzzard.
01:07:39Did she happen to tell you as well?
01:07:41As I've already said, that wouldn't have gone well for Aggie.
01:07:45Is that why Kimony decided to contact us?
01:07:48You met her. She spent half her life contacting the police.
01:07:53Talking of which, did she ever mention the hit-and-run?
01:07:56Only to the point of boredom.
01:07:58More recently, I mean, as in, had she found out who killed her husband?
01:08:01No, she'd have said. In fact, she'd have screamed it from the rooftops.
01:08:08We know that Brad checked into Saj's pub on the same night that Kimony's husband was killed.
01:08:13Before you fall down that rabbit hole, Brad got a puncture up at the house and walked down to the village.
01:08:19He couldn't have run anyone over, let alone Kim and his husband.
01:08:22I don't suppose I could have Francis's teddy. Only Kimony bought that for him. It feels so wrong that Aggie took it.
01:08:34How did you know about the teddy bear? We deliberately withheld that information.
01:08:41Alan told me. He must have let it slip, Chief Inspector.
01:08:47Charles, how good of you to call. Now, I may need you to sue the police for loss of earnings.
01:09:04Yes, that's right, the police. I'll send you an email with all the details. Speak soon.
01:09:10Well, that should shrink your annual budget.
01:09:14How did you know about Aggie Marlowe taking Francis's teddy bear?
01:09:19You told your wife, remember?
01:09:21Well, I probably picked it up after one of you lot.
01:09:24Aggie must have gone up to Francis's room. I think you saw her.
01:09:29You're an absolute balderdash. Why would she go up there?
01:09:32I didn't know she had.
01:09:34It seems a strange place to return to, considering the circumstances.
01:09:38Or was she coming to see you and Lady Myrtle?
01:09:40I very much doubt it.
01:09:42She'd been avoiding being seen, yet she felt confident enough to come to the house.
01:09:48The place where she'd apparently left a child to die.
01:09:52I'm afraid I can't answer for her actions.
01:09:54I happen to think you can.
01:09:57What really happened on the day your son died?
01:10:00I'd really rather not go back there.
01:10:01It's still exceedingly raw, even after all these years.
01:10:06I know that you and your wife went to a party with your father.
01:10:11She said that she came back alone, which implies that either you were still at the party,
01:10:16or you'd already left.
01:10:18I stayed till the bitter end.
01:10:19Then you would have seen both Lady Myrtle and Kemeny, because they stayed late as well.
01:10:27You've spent a long time living with this, Sir Alan.
01:10:37She was extremely attractive back then.
01:10:40And I was only a little older than her.
01:10:43In your eyes, perhaps?
01:10:46And I'd been drinking.
01:10:48And you know, sometimes on those odd occasions when you have a romantic thought,
01:10:52and then that thought becomes a possibility, and then before you know where you are,
01:10:56it's a cast-iron certainty.
01:10:58And I was Sir Percival's son. How could she not be impressed?
01:11:01But Aggie wasn't impressed, was she?
01:11:04Well, she tried to be polite, and I went along with it at first.
01:11:07But then I said we hadn't got much time, and perhaps we should move things forward.
01:11:11Well, she was appalled.
01:11:13Said she wanted to go and check on Francis.
01:11:16He was crying, and I stopped her.
01:11:21I didn't let her see him.
01:11:23For how long?
01:11:25Well, I thought I heard a thump, or a thud, or something.
01:11:29But I just ignored it, because I had other things on my mind.
01:11:34And Aggie heard it too, and told me to open the door.
01:11:37She said it over and over again, and when I refused, she slapped me, and then she dodged by me.
01:11:41And her first thought was to go and check on Francis.
01:11:45And that's when I heard her scream.
01:11:48And by the time you got there...
01:11:52Well, to my eternal shame, I blamed her.
01:11:56I said it was all her fault, and that I would see her locked up for life.
01:12:02So she ran, knowing that no one would believe her word against yours, the son of Sir Percival Bruce.
01:12:10She came to see me a few nights ago.
01:12:13She told me she was going to tell Myrtle the truth.
01:12:16Well, everybody, in fact.
01:12:17Why now, after all this time?
01:12:19Well, Noah wants to set up permanent residence on the grounds.
01:12:22But I didn't kill her, I swear.
01:12:24I didn't even try to get that damn Teddy back.
01:12:28I just stood there, frozen.
01:12:31In this pathetic excuse that I call my life.
01:12:44Winter.
01:12:46So I looked into Saj's financials, like you said, and the odd thing was that Sylvia paid for Brad's room the night he turned up in Godly Buzzard.
01:13:02But she said that she didn't meet him that day.
01:13:04I think we'd better talk to her.
01:13:05Also, Fleur's tech team found a smudge of blue ink on Kimini's laptop.
01:13:10It was only tiny, but she's going to run it.
01:13:12Tell her there's no me.
01:13:14Yeah, I already have, sir.
01:13:15Because it's probably from the stamp that Sylvia uses in her library.
01:13:18You won't jump ahead of me, Winter.
01:13:20There is a first time for everything, sir.
01:13:21You should get a bonus for all the things you've taught me.
01:13:24Didn't tech have any luck with Kimini's laptop?
01:13:28They managed to retrieve most of the data, but it was just the speeding reports that she'd been filing.
01:13:33Can I see?
01:13:34Hmm.
01:13:37Yeah, I should go and talk to her before she heads off.
01:13:47Sylvia, I wanted to ask, why did you pay for Brad's room the night that the flower festival was rained off?
01:13:54I'm sure that you hadn't met him that day.
01:13:56Sylvia!
01:13:59Sylvia!
01:14:05Put your foot down, Winter.
01:14:21Can't get around us, man.
01:14:23See if there's somewhere to put us up ahead.
01:14:25Oh, following me!
01:14:28What's she doing? Where's she going?
01:14:29She's on her way to Godly Manor.
01:14:31You can't go and live with that excuse for an uncle.
01:14:36I can do what the hell I like.
01:14:38Noah's going to try and take all of this from us.
01:14:40Not just the grounds he wants. He'll come for his share of the house.
01:14:43And you think I'm on your side?
01:14:45I hope he gets the lot.
01:14:47Frankie.
01:14:48Frankie!
01:14:56She's heading for the gate, sir.
01:14:57She's gonna go straight through them, sir.
01:14:59Frankie!
01:15:00Frankie!
01:15:02Frankie!
01:15:03Frankie!
01:15:04Frankie!
01:15:05Frankie!
01:15:07Frankie!
01:15:12Sylvia!
01:15:14Sylvia!
01:15:16What are you doing?
01:15:17They know.
01:15:18Know what?
01:15:19What I did.
01:15:20Pull yourself together, Sylvia.
01:15:22I killed him, Mother.
01:15:24I killed him.
01:15:25I killed him.
01:15:31What the hell is going on?
01:15:32He's shaking like a leaf.
01:15:37Sylvia, I don't understand.
01:15:39Ask them.
01:15:41They know.
01:15:42Stop saying that.
01:15:43Will somebody talk to me?
01:15:44Tell them, then.
01:15:45Tell them what I did.
01:15:46I'd rather hear it from you, Sylvia.
01:15:52I didn't see him.
01:15:54The road was empty one minute the next.
01:15:56He was just standing there right in front of me.
01:15:59Who is she talking about?
01:16:00Too many bullets.
01:16:01Husband, Lawrence.
01:16:02What?
01:16:03Sylvia?
01:16:04Right.
01:16:05Don't say another word.
01:16:06Alan, call your solicitor.
01:16:08Tell us what happened, Sylvia.
01:16:09Leave my daughter alone.
01:16:11Alan, call Charles now!
01:16:13Josh!
01:16:15I didn't think anyone had seen me, so I drove off, not knowing what to do.
01:16:20I was in such a state, though, I had to pull over, thought I was gonna be sick.
01:16:23A few minutes later, there was a tap on the side of the library.
01:16:28Brad had seen what you'd done.
01:16:30He made me pay for his room at Sash's pub.
01:16:33He was really after something else.
01:16:37I'm so sorry.
01:16:39I'm so sorry.
01:16:42He wanted to be in the manor.
01:16:43He wanted a portrait of his own.
01:16:45He wanted it all.
01:16:47So he told me I had to make sure you married him.
01:16:49Doesn't anyone want me for who I am?
01:16:53I know.
01:16:55I know, and I hated him so much for it.
01:16:57I wanted to rescue you, Frankie.
01:16:58I wanted so many things.
01:17:00Winter?
01:17:01As I learned at great cost last year, there are certain perennials that shouldn't be planted next to each other.
01:17:06Kim and I would know that better than anyone.
01:17:08I think they found Brad's phone.
01:17:11Well, on it, no doubt. We'll find out why it had to be buried.
01:17:14Mm-hmm.
01:17:15Am I right, Frankie?
01:17:19I have no idea what you're talking about.
01:17:22I know it was you who smashed up Kim and his laptop.
01:17:25Me? I had no idea that even happened.
01:17:28I saw a list of number plates on a document that Kim and he was putting together.
01:17:32Your friend Cordelia's number plate was on it along with a date and time.
01:17:36Then talk to Cordelia, not me.
01:17:38Ironically, that was actually the very thing you were trying to prevent.
01:17:41When will you ever learn, Cordelia? It's not 30 miles an hour through the village.
01:17:47And don't think you can get away with this at night either. I'm on guard 24-7.
01:17:50You took Cordelia's car after everyone had passed out after your celebrations.
01:17:56You drove it up here not thinking for a minute that Kim and he would still be out monitoring the roads.
01:18:02She was going to post her findings on Monday, and the moment Cordelia received her speeding notice, she would have questioned it.
01:18:08You couldn't have that happen, Frankie.
01:18:14Is this true?
01:18:16Not a word of it. And who stays up half the night looking for speeders?
01:18:20Kim and he did. She was heartbroken after Lauren. She couldn't sleep or find peace anywhere.
01:18:25We know that the cuckoo clock had been moved high enough to kill Brad.
01:18:29And who would have known Brad's height better than you?
01:18:33Try my mother. She seemed to have spent a lot of time with him.
01:18:35Yes, mother. I knew that earring was yours.
01:18:39Would you like to tell us what's on the phone, Frankie?
01:18:43It won't take us long to access it.
01:18:45Well, when you put it like that. Frankie.
01:18:58Frankie.
01:19:05It was the look on his face that did it. It was this look of pure and utter greed.
01:19:12I knew what he was thinking. So I sent him a message.
01:19:16Why don't we steal the clock and run away together?
01:19:20He agreed. Said we should do it after things had died down.
01:19:23But you came up here and rigged the clock.
01:19:25Because I knew he was lying. He wanted it all for himself.
01:19:30I hoped I was wrong, but sometimes you just know.
01:19:34It was horrible to watch.
01:19:36How did you know that Brad would be there at the right time?
01:19:39I didn't matter what time it was.
01:19:43Frankie knew Brad would turn the hour hands to get the cuckoo to come out regardless.
01:19:55Tell me about Nessie. Presumably you saw her up at the house.
01:19:59Kimmy, I just got your message.
01:20:00Oh my God. Are you sure it's her?
01:20:03I can't. I just can't. Not while there's breath in my body.
01:20:06I hadn't a clue who my mother was talking about.
01:20:08Until you realized that I was in the right place.
01:20:10I didn't know what time it was.
01:20:12Frankie knew Brad would turn the hour hands to get the cuckoo to come out regardless.
01:20:16Tell me about Nessie. Presumably you saw her up at the house.
01:20:20Kimmy, I just got your message.
01:20:23Oh my God.
01:20:25Are you sure it's her?
01:20:26No clue who my mother was talking about.
01:20:29Until you realized there was only one person your mother could hate that much.
01:20:32Aggie Marlowe.
01:20:35And there she was, carrying Francis' teddy.
01:20:39So you took revenge for your brother.
01:20:41How could I not?
01:20:43She's responsible for this nightmare I call my life.
01:20:47Only she wasn't.
01:20:49What?
01:20:51I suggest you speak to Sir Alan about that.
01:20:54I'm curious about the blue ink on Kimmy's laptop.
01:20:57Presumably you wanted to throw us off the trail.
01:21:02Sorry, sis.
01:21:04You all but forced me into loving Brad.
01:21:07It was his doing, not mine.
01:21:08But I didn't know that, did I?
01:21:10I believed every word he said.
01:21:12I'm your sister. I was put in a horrible position.
01:21:14Do you want to know about horrible positions?
01:21:17Try killing three people.
01:21:19Most people would have just called off the engagement.
01:21:21Blame them.
01:21:23They made me that way.
01:21:25I grew up being rejected for not being what they desperately wanted.
01:21:28And there I was again.
01:21:30Not being what Brad wanted.
01:21:35What's a girl to do?
01:21:36Though I rather hoped.
01:21:40I was always one step ahead of you.
01:21:42If it's any consolation, you were.
01:21:47But you always saw the wood despite the trees.
01:21:50How ironic.
01:21:55I don't understand you, Frankie.
01:21:59How are you saying all these things?
01:22:01As if you didn't have a care in the world.
01:22:03Because I learnt from the worst.
01:22:05If only you and father had wanted me.
01:22:08It was just a simple little thing.
01:22:10Like loving a child.
01:22:12But it was beyond both of you.
01:22:19I hope your daughter turns out to be everything you could hope for.
01:22:33That's it.
01:22:34Almost there.
01:22:49He's doing a grand job.
01:22:51He is.
01:22:52And I have to say, I am deeply impressed.
01:22:55Did you know pergolas and arbors date back to early Egyptian times?
01:22:59Really that far?
01:23:01In some societies there were actually status symbols.
01:23:04Well, the Barnabys are going up in the world.
01:23:08I'd have had that up an hour ago.
01:23:10You'd be moaning about having a strained back by now.
01:23:13I'm just saying, it would have taken me half the time.
01:23:15Don't listen to them, Winter.
01:23:17You're doing a fine job.
01:23:21A very fine job, indeed.
01:23:23I'm so tired, I think it would have been a fine job.
01:23:27You're done.
01:23:28I'm so tired.
01:23:30I'm sure I can't do this.
01:23:32I'm so tired, but I'm really tired.
01:23:33I'm so tired, but I'll make money.
01:23:37I will be happy with you.
01:23:39I'll make money in the world of my family.
01:23:42How much.
01:23:44I know everything, I know everything.
01:23:48You can play this place.
01:23:49I know everything.
01:23:50I know everything, but I do.
01:23:51I can't play this place.
