18:36call from the alarm company about the break-in just after 1 30
18:38he took a cab back to the wine bar because he'd had a drink
18:42i've confirmed to the cab company that they picked him up in polmarin and took him to the bar
18:46the uniformed unit were already at the scene and confirmed the break-in happened at 1 30
18:50so we can rule out terry finch
18:53looks that way
18:55i couldn't find adhesive remover anywhere you'd think i'd be asking for unicorn poo
19:03had to go to the industrial estate
19:06you can't just leave him sitting there what else can i do with him

20:07and that christmas god that's well bad

20:23and the uh sister
20:24again nothing so far i'm still waiting on the missing person reports to come back but i've drawn
20:30a blank with electoral register care homes sheltered housing in a five mile radius
20:34looks like we've hit a dead end maybe we should just pass it on to social services
20:39well let's at least keep trying until they get here
20:49and you're not even going to warn him
20:51no he'll start fretting and when he frets he breaks things
20:55right well speaking of someone surrounded by bottles no one wants that
20:58just make sure everything's ready it will be
21:02hi thanks for getting back to me
21:07how can one person be on the phone so much every time i call her she's engaged maybe she's busy
21:13i haven't got anything on fishes why mart
21:16there's no cctv in the alley a few passers-by at the front just after midnight then nothing until
21:23the police unit turned up just after 1 30. then a cab arrives that's terry finch
21:29oh still we still need to speak to robert check his movements why you don't think he had anything
21:37to do with this of course not that's to spark the investigation margot ticking all the boxes do you
21:43know where we can find him margot yeah well i've got three jobs i do mornings here home deliveries in
21:55the afternoon and fishers four nights a week can you tell us where you were last night after you left
22:02the bar up to about 1 30 a.m uh yeah no i was i was at home can anyone vouch for that uh well no
22:10and laura is staying at her mum's with the girls laura's your wife yeah yeah hey um is it true that
22:19they took that charity money from behind the bar too yes they did who would do something like that
22:26uh yesterday do you recall asking terry finch if he'd been to the bank uh no oh no wait yes
22:35did yeah yes i think i did can ask why oh no no reason i just have to cover the bar if he goes
22:43to the sorry am i in trouble no no not at all um just routine questions oh can you just run us
22:51through your shift yesterday starting with after we left yeah well i mean i was rushed off my feet
22:57um mr finch see he won't hire any more staff he says cutting costs makes us look good to head off
23:03this hmm you didn't notice anything out of the ordinary no no no no we had three parties in um we
23:10called last orders not long after you guys left and you know everyone just drifted off what time is
23:14that i think we were empty by about half eleven yeah i wiped down the tables in the bar i put the uh
23:20thank you i put the empties in the bottle crate to be collected the next morning emptied the bins behind
23:26the bar normally i'd run the bin bags out the back but mr finch told me to go home so yeah i think
23:31i left by about quarter to twelve then after you left did you see anyone outside nope it was pretty quiet
23:40oh no hold on there was this lunatic in a snowman suit yeah oh are you sure we can't take this head
23:51off yet apparently not glue needs to soften for another 20 minutes and we can't cut it off because
23:58he'll lose his deposit fine so you were at a party yeah i was at a mate's flat his girlfriend's birthday
24:08fancy dress whoa how do you know that i'm a detective and on your way home you walk through the alley
24:14behind the shops on the high street uh shortcut right did you see anyone particularly anyone at
24:21the back of fisher's wine bar i think i saw a bloke taking the bins out right what time oh maybe just
24:28before midnight oh and then there was this bunch of kids kids yeah about 10 of them on bikes all started
24:35taking the mick obviously how old i don't know 15 16 anyways they all start pushing me around and then
24:44one of them goes oh chuck him in the wheelie bin and so they did couldn't you get out oh i was smashed
24:51by then plus they're surprisingly comfortable in there oh don't remember nothing after that right
24:58silent what are you thinking this fresh splinter of wood we found at the scene from the back door
25:07yeah but it was only visible once the bin men had taken the bags away in the morning do you remember
25:13they cleared them while we were there so so
25:19so surely that must mean the splinter was under the bags but how can that be when our snowman saw
25:25finch put the bags out before he left the evening it doesn't make any sense we know the break-in was
25:30at 1 30 because that's when the alarm went off exactly
25:45the eagle has landed
26:03oh yeah we uh we thought you might be hungry it's ham and cheese
26:09it's ham and cheese
26:16if you don't like it we can swap it for something else
26:20uh no rush just just let me know have you found louise
26:26no david not yet but we're looking okay i miss it so much oh mate
26:33hey hey we know you do don't get upset all right our inspector he's looking for her and he's amazing
26:45got it that was it they found a match for the image ah
26:57it's from the tavistock chronicle newspaper coverage of the amateur dramatics train murder
27:03they snapped you at the station remember no idea it's definitely the same image okay good so let's uh
27:10focus our search on the tavistock area and see what that throws up will do all right oh steady
27:17yep you got my skin there
27:23everyone meet seb branner hello seb thank heavens for that oh thank you guys i thought i'd never get out
27:32david got a bit upset started talking about his sister again but he's calmed down a bit poor love

27:46it off brilliant cheers oh sorry yeah okay you all right i've sent an information request to
27:54tavistock police and the town council so what are you thinking the kids on the bikes
28:02no yeah there were three or four bottles of pinot grigio smashed on the floor no other damage
28:10and there was no empty beer cans no witty remarks or pictures of genitalia etched on the walls
28:16the office was untouched no this wasn't teenagers i think this was someone who knew the cash was there
28:23and where it was robert so you do think bobby was involved no yes you do i can see it on your faces
28:33we're still trying to work out exactly what happened margot but bobby's a suspect no well well yes but
28:41only until we eliminate him i'm sorry margot we don't like it any more than you do but we have to do our
28:46job he's the only other person who knew that cash was there overnight and he's working three jobs so
28:52we know money's tight for him and i've known him his entire life there's no way he could do anything
28:58like this we're sure that's true but we have no buts that boy goes to the children's ward every
29:04christmas morning to take them presents do you really think he'd steal his own charity money
29:10and yes he's got three jobs but that's because he's a hard-working lad trying to provide for his
29:15own family not a thief
29:23margot good luck with that
29:26everything all right yeah uh the boxes are in the car hi mum back yeah she's just in the kitchen
29:42making him a sandwich you're not having second thoughts are you what if he hates it he won't
29:51i love it you think i know all right i better go and check on our guest
30:05sir tavistock police no missing person reports in the past week okay but but i still think we're in
30:11the right area so um try gp surgeries next uh social services see if any of them have a patient called
30:17david or louise haylton sir
30:34i'm sorry i shouted
30:40i was a bit cross that's perfectly understandable but i stand by what i said
30:44my bobby isn't a thief
30:55so kelby did you get your snowman home
30:58seb yeah i got to meet his new girlfriend's parents yeah they didn't suspect a thing
31:04well he did have a rash across his neck but he said it was only because he was nervous to meet him
31:12smooth
31:13hmm heat rash probably from being in that suit he must have been melting in there oh hey it's like
31:19that joke from last night what do you call an old snowman water
31:26ice that's it melting ice explain
31:32an empty crisp packet what oh no sorry
31:39if this splinter of wood was found underneath the bags of rubbish at the back of fisher's wine bar
31:44then the door must have been forced open before they were put out by terry finch shortly before midnight
31:49except that's not possible because we know the break-in was an hour and a half later what if it wasn't
32:02what if everything was just set up to look like a break-in by who terry finch yes
32:13sorry but if finch set all this up himself how could the alarm go off at 1 30 in the morning when
32:20we know he was 10 miles away in polmarin because in the words of a song from my youth ice ice baby ice
32:28remember the pool of water on the bar what about it i thought it was all at the time it was wine
32:36bottles that were broken so how could it be water robert told us he wiped down the bar before he left and
32:43he also said he emptied the bin behind the bar yet it had a plastic bag in it
32:56okay now you're losing me i saw a similar bag at the christmas party
33:03sorry
33:06but you'd expect to see a bag used for ice behind a bar wouldn't you yes but
33:11if robert emptied the bin as he said and i have no reason to doubt him why was it there in the
33:18morning thank you good night this is what i think happened i had to carry you tonight all right sorry
33:26pull your finger out or else i'm gonna have to get someone else don't say that mr finch no no no you
33:31know i need this job well maybe you should be thinking more about your kids and less about
33:35falling all over the puns it's just it's christmas i just wanted everyone to have a good time i told you
33:39christmas is for mugs all i'm interested in is how much they spend right so let's chitty chatting
33:45and more serving you got it yeah got it i think robert did exactly as you said after you cleaned
33:50the bar he emptied the bin leave them i'll take him out no no it's fine i'll take leave him i'll take
33:55him out i'll do it myself like everything else go on go on i'm sick of looking at you
34:01like mr finch and once robert had left finch went straight out to the back door
34:20which is how this splinter of wood got in the alley before the bags of rubbish it's the only thing
34:24that fits
34:45there was no damage anywhere else no sign of anyone searching the office so our thief had to know
34:50where the money was
34:59but this this was the clever bit
35:09ice defrost at a predetermined pace and therefore makes a perfect time delay switch
35:15so as the ice melts the bottles will fall setting off the alarm precisely
35:36so
35:46so
35:48so
35:50I don't know.
36:20By the time Terry Finch arrived at the wine bar, police were already there and had found the broken back door and broken wine bottles on the floor.
36:32Which would look exactly like a break-in.
36:34I think when Terry got there, he took the plastic ice bag from the bar and simply threw it in the bin.
36:45But forgot to wipe away the water from the melted ice on the bar.
36:49Precisely.
36:51So, it wasn't Bobby?
36:53No, it was not.
36:59Crikey.
37:00Thank you, Margot.
37:03Kelby, go pick him up.
37:06Oh.
37:07Tavistock Social Services.
37:09They've reported one of their care home residents, David Hilton, as missing.
37:15He wasn't in his room when his carer went in this morning.
37:19No mention of his sister, but his daughter and son-in-law are on their way now to pick him up.
37:26Oh, yes.
37:27So, he'll be with his family for Christmas.
37:29Well done, everyone.
37:30Kelby called.
37:50They've got him.
37:50And Margot ran a cheque.
37:52Seems he was sacked from his last job for running up gambling debt on the company credit card.
37:57I see.
37:57So, he was a gambler.
37:59Whose luck just ran out.
38:00Hello.
38:08I'm Humphrey.
38:09Well, this is Esther.
38:10He's your dad, is he?
38:14We've been going out of our minds all day.
38:17Yes, I'm sure.
38:18Where did you find him?
38:19Er, he found us.
38:21He was sitting on the doorstep when I came in this morning.
38:23Er, are we going to see Louise now?
38:25Oh, not yet, Dad.
38:28We need to get you home.
38:29Everyone's worried about you.
38:31He's been talking about his sister all day.
38:34I'm sorry.
38:35We'll get him home.
38:36I'm sure you've got more important things to do.
38:38Not at all.
38:39Can I just ask?
38:41He had a photograph of me in his pocket.
38:48You wouldn't happen to know why.
38:50You're Humphrey Goodman.
38:52Yes.
38:53Yes, I am.
38:55Dad, you sit with Keith for a minute, okay?
38:59I won't be long.
39:02Yeah.
39:05You're all right, Dad.
39:05You're all right.
39:06Dad and his sister Louise were adopted.
39:11They lost their parents when he was seven.
39:14They were supposed to go to the same family,
39:15but circumstances changed and they were split up.
39:18Come on.
39:35He tried to look for her over the years, but just hit one dead end after another.
39:53So he just sort of locked it away and got on with his life.
39:58Just became that unspoken thing.
40:03And then he started to get ill.
40:05And he was diagnosed as having dementia.
40:09And as his memory started to deteriorate, he started talking about Louise again.
40:18It was as if of all the things he had in his life, she was the thing he was frightened about forgetting the most.
40:25So we decided to try again.
40:30We hit the same dead ends as before, but this time we found her.
40:34Dad was so excited.
40:36We traced her to Gloucester, where she was adopted by a couple on Christmas Eve in 1968.
40:42They changed her name to theirs, so she became Louise Briggs.
40:44But then she moved away.
40:47And we lost all track of her.
40:50But then, the people who bought her old house in Gloucester found an old bank statement dated from around the time she moved away.
40:57But it showed that she made a withdrawal from an ATM in Shipton Abbott.
41:00Sorry.
41:01Sorry.
41:01Oh.
41:02I still don't see why David would have a photograph of me in his pocket.
41:06So, we were at a loss as what to do next.
41:10So, we spoke to Dad about hiring a private detective in the new year.
41:13Someone from Devon who could help us find her.
41:16And Dad saw your picture in the paper and thought you looked like a decent chap, so he was going to call you and ask if you could help.
41:23He can't remember what he had for breakfast, but he can tell you what song was on the radio the day they took Louise away.
41:35It's like he's stuck in that moment, and the hurt is just as real now as it was then.
41:48Okay, everyone.
41:50Let's run a check on the name Louise Briggs.
41:52It's town halls, social services, PNC, any other databanks you can get into.
41:57Local HMRC, passport office, DVLA.
42:01Look into local clubs and organisations.
42:03She must be drawing a pension by now, see if that gives us anything.
42:06Sir.
42:08Should we be making these kinds of checks?
42:11Yes, we should, Sergeant, for two very good reasons.
42:14Firstly, it's a missing persons investigation.
42:16Even though they're not missing any more?
42:18Technically, yes.
42:20And the second?
42:21It's Christmas.
42:22Oh, Martha called.
42:25She said she's at the winery ordering stock.
42:27Can you pick her up from there?
42:28And don't be late.
42:30What time's it now?
42:30Uh, it's 4.35.
42:32You've got 25 minutes.
42:34Okay, quick as you can, everyone.
42:35Hey, Elton.
42:36H-A-L-E-T-O-N.
42:39H-A-L-E-T-O-N.
42:44Although that's her original name, she went on to become Louise Briggs.
42:59Have we got anything else listed under the name Louise Briggs?
43:03No, that's all the information we have.
43:04No, that's all the information we have.
43:05Could we cross-reference her date of birth against anything else?
43:08All we know for sure is she left Gloucester around four years ago and we think came to ship the nabbit.
43:13Or at least somewhere in this area.
43:15Bye.
43:16Okay, let me see if I can find that.
43:18I'll come back to you.
43:21They need a national insurance number.
43:23You'd better go.
43:24Five more minutes.
43:25Okay, well, thanks for trying.
43:27Bye.
43:29Nothing.
43:30Say again?
43:32But her adopted name was definitely Louise Briggs.
43:37Is there an address on the records?
43:41If you would.
43:43You got my number.
43:44Okay, thanks, Jess.
43:49There was Louise Briggs married in patent registry office four years ago.
43:53She declared her former name as Hilton.
43:56So it's her?
43:57It has to be.
43:58Her married name is Branner, but they couldn't see an address for her.
44:01They're checking, but, you know, they can't guarantee it'll be today.
44:05Branner.
44:06I've heard that somewhere.
44:08Yeah.
44:11Seb, the snowman.
44:13Oh.
44:14Yes.
44:14Of course.
44:17You go.
44:17We'll do this.
44:18Oh, no.
44:18I don't.
44:19No.
44:22Right.
44:23Let's call Seb.
44:32Come on through.
44:34She should be around here somewhere.
44:36Hello, love.
44:38Hello, love.
44:39All right, Lou.
44:40Guys, this is my step-mom.
44:43Louise, this is Esther and Margot.
44:45Hi.
44:46Louise, we're from Shipton Abbot Police.
44:48It's nothing to worry about.
44:50Going to let Margot take the lead on this one.
44:53Louise, we believe you had an older brother.
44:55I think he's been on this one.
44:57No.
44:57Listen to me.
44:57I think he hasn't ready to tell me.
44:59Well, he's done it.
45:03Yeah.
45:06God.
45:08Yes.
45:09First of all, love.
45:09I'm here.
45:28Hi.
45:31You're late.
45:33What's going on?
45:35We're getting married.
45:37What?
45:37Come on.
45:39He's here.
45:46Ah.
45:47Oh, good Lord.
45:49You mean we're really getting married?
45:51Just told you.
45:52Yes, but I thought it a metaphor.
45:54For?
45:55For something else.
45:57You still want to get married, don't you?
45:58Yes, of course I do.
46:01I mean, why the big secret?
46:04Because whenever we've planned it properly, it's always gone wrong.
46:07And so I just thought I'd sneak up on you.
46:13Because after Rosie left, I wanted to show you that as hard as it was losing her, it was kind of all right because I still had you.
46:22And you're enough.
46:26Sorry.
46:31Shall we get married, then?
46:32Yes, please.
46:33Yeah!
46:34Oh, you'll need to change.
46:39And I nearly forgot.
46:42Mm-hmm.
46:42I found you a best man, too.
46:45Oh, crikey.
46:48Commissioner.
46:50Nice of you to join us, Inspector Goodman.
46:52He's here.
47:09I think you want to take over.
47:11Dad.
47:13Look over there.
47:16It's Louise.
47:16Louise.
47:17Louise.
47:17Louise.
47:17Louise.
47:17Louise.
47:22David.
47:48David.
47:49Yeah.
47:49Yeah.
47:50Yeah.
47:50I know.
47:51David.
47:51Yeah.
47:52Yeah.
47:52I can't believe you've come all this way just for me.
47:57I didn't.
47:59Oh.
48:01Well, I was in the UK anyway, visiting my daughter.
48:04This was a happy coincidence.
48:07Even so.
48:09Thank you, sir.
48:11Well, should I call you Selwyn?
48:13No.
48:15Of course.
48:22If I promise this is what I'll do
48:31Will you love me like I do you
48:37If I hold you when the world is great
48:42If you want to hold me to me
48:46Wait!
48:49Wait!
48:50It's in time.
48:51Oh, I can't believe you
48:54Will you love me like I do you
48:59So, we're here today
49:03To witness the marriage of Humphrey and Martha
49:06Who are not so much starting a new life together
49:09But confirming their commitment to each other
49:12Do you remember our house?
49:17My bedroom is next to your bedroom
49:19That's right
49:22To cherish and respect each other
49:25Throughout our lives together
49:27Humphrey
49:32Pardon?
49:33I give you this rent
49:35Wait, listen, um
49:37What is it?
49:39I give you this ring as a symbol of our love, trust and marriage
49:55I give you this ring as a symbol of our love, trust and marriage
50:05I promise to care for you above all others and to give you my love, friendship and support
50:11Otherfinger
50:12Otherfinger
50:13Otherfinger
50:14Otherfinger
50:16No, the ring, the otherfinger
50:17Oh, sorry, golly
50:19Otherfinger
50:20Otherfinger
50:22Yeah, and to respect and cherish you throughout our lives together
50:25And to respect and cherish you throughout our lives together
50:41And now, a short reading from the best man Selwyn
50:54Who is to say what love is?
50:59From the fluttering heart that sees a face long missed
51:05To the tearful, breathless wrench of a love only ever found in the moment
51:13Or a love that speaks of blood shared
51:20Of a bond that can't be broken
51:27Of a light that can never be dimmed by adversity
51:35Who is to say what love is?
51:42Because love seeks no favor
51:47Nor does it seek permission
51:50It seeks no title, no praise or reward
51:59Love simply is
52:02Love never blames, always forgives and cannot be diminished
52:11Diminished by distance
52:13Or weakened by time
52:18Love is what is left when everything else deserts you
52:24Who is to say what love is?
52:30Only you
52:31Only you
52:32Because only you know
52:36At which point, having declared their vows to each other
52:41And through the exchanging of rings
52:43I can very happily declare that Humphrey and Martha are now husband and wife
52:49Congratulations
52:50Archie, thank you
52:56This is perfect
52:57Worth all the skullduggery
52:58Definitely
52:59All those clandestine meetings was a bit like being back in the old days
53:03Stop
53:04I'm a married woman
53:05And I couldn't be happier for you
53:10It's such a shame he can't find someone
53:11I mean, he's handsome, rich, generous to a fort, even makes his own wine
53:17I mean, there should be a queue around the building
53:18Though I have to admit that you're clumsy, annoying, socially awkward, yet quite delightful
53:24Beanpole with my new husband is quite a catch too
53:25Yes, he is
53:26Yes, he is
53:27Oh, thanks
53:29Yeah
53:30Hi
53:31Oh, thanks
53:32Oh, thanks
53:33I just certainly know
53:34You can't find someone
53:35I mean, he's handsome, rich, generous to a fort
53:37Even makes his own wine
53:38I mean, there should be a queue around the building
53:42Though I have to admit that you're clumsy, annoying, socially awkward, yet quite delightful
53:47Beanpole with my new husband is quite a catch too
53:52Yes, he is
53:54Oh, Inspector, we were just comparing notes.
53:59That's mildly terrifying.
54:01It seems you've brought all your annoying traits with you from the Caribbean.
54:04But also your brilliance.
54:06Ah.
54:07Congratulations.
54:08Thank you, Mum.
54:11Commissioner?
54:12It was my pleasure.
54:16Thank you for being here.
54:18And your reading was quite beautiful.
54:20So, I'm not entirely sure how you managed to convince her to marry you.
54:30You're a very lucky man.
54:32Yes, I am.
54:34Oh.
54:35Ah, excuse me.
54:37Of course.
54:39Inspector Wilson.
54:39Oh.
54:41David and her sister, how'd it go?
54:42Uh, we found her.
54:44She agreed to meet him.
54:45They're together now.
54:46It was amazing.
54:48So, she was related to Serb the Snowman?
54:51Yeah, she was his step-mom.
54:53Congratulations, everyone.
54:54Well done.
54:54You're amazing.
54:55Yeah, we are.
54:57I think we should reward ourselves with another drink.
55:00Oh, yes.
55:00Good idea.
55:01Come on, sir.
55:02Um.
55:03Everything okay, sir?
55:08Mm.
55:09That was the new inspector.
55:11He's working on a case in St. Paris, but there seems to be links to the UK, which you would
55:18like me to look into while I'm here.
55:20Sorry, Selwyn.
55:22Can I steal my husband?
55:23Be my guest.
55:25Thank you, sir.
55:30All right?
55:31Okay.
55:31Have a look at the case.
55:32Of course you do.
55:33Bye.
55:33Bye.
55:35Any excuse?
55:36Excuse me?
55:37Yeah.
55:37Just stand next to me.
55:40What did you do?
55:41Pour it into a pot plant?
55:42You wish.
55:44Oh, really?
55:45Yeah.
55:46One, two.
55:47Two, one, two.
55:47Yeah, that's great.
55:48Maybe I do.
55:51Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
55:52We are better heads.
55:54Can't keep running away.
55:57Mum, come on.
55:58The band's starting.
56:04Night, you love.
56:07Well.
56:08We finally did it.
56:10Sorry, that was.
56:12Yes, we did.
56:14Happy?
56:15Very.
56:16Actually, it doesn't matter if you are or not.
56:18There's no escape now.
56:19You're stuck with me.
56:21It's the only person I've ever wanted to be.
56:24Merry Christmas, Mrs. Goodman.
56:26Merry Christmas, Mr. Goodman.
56:32Oi!
56:33Come on, sir.
56:35Come on, sir.
56:35Come on, sir.
56:35Come on, sir.
56:36Come on, sir.
56:3710,000 miles away.
56:38Oh, dark and distant.
56:40What's the day when last I saw my mech?
56:43She's a government divine,
56:44Boundly chimed in a little bit about her leg.
56:47And we've never been around her leg.
56:48Let me last, let the big ship sail away.
56:51And I say that I'll beat you to her.
56:5310,000 miles away.
56:56Now, I say,
56:57I know you're entitled,
56:58I know you're entitled,
56:58A road in my little girl.
57:00I'll stay the more,
57:02I'll take you to the show.
57:03Well done.
57:03The music playing for now.

57:07And I won't be back again.

57:15I'll take you to the show.

57:33Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Goodman.
57:36The ocean's shine from London
57:38For the river run quite clear
57:40On the ocean's brine
57:41Return to wine
57:42And I'll forget me beer
57:44Oh, I'll forget me beer
57:46In Midlands
57:47And the landlord's tub I'll pay
57:48Before I forget my own dip
57:50Make 10,000 miles away
57:52I'll sing gold
57:54The winds I owe
57:55For a road in I will go
57:57I'll stay the more on England shore
57:59For me to hear the music play
58:01For I'm off the morning train
58:03I won't be back again
58:05I'm taking a trip on a government ship
58:0810,000 miles away
