00:00:00Can you see me? Are we starting?
00:00:03Your camera's off. I'm just letting people in as they arrive.
00:00:08Any chance of actually starting this thing on time?
00:00:11Yeah, it's only just quarter to you, Moira.
00:00:13I can't see you.
00:00:15Hi there.
00:00:16Hi Moira.
00:00:17I said I can't see you.
00:00:19Oh, really?
00:00:20Um, not you, Estelle.
00:00:23Hi. Yes, I just need to...
00:00:28Hi.
00:00:29Hello.
00:00:30Okay.
00:00:31Welcome everyone to this slightly unusual meeting of Causton Grammar Parent Teacher Association.
00:00:38Due to the unfortunate way things ended last time, the decision was taken to move online.
00:00:45My hope is that we can communicate more constructively this time.
00:00:51Constructive criticism surely involves listening, not cancelling events unilaterally with no consultation, no real evidence.
00:01:00The issue which you're referring to is on the agenda, Moira. Thank you.
00:01:05But first I'm going to hand over to our Deputy Head, Mr Crawford, for some housekeeping.
00:01:10Uh, hi then, everyone. My connection's a bit dodgy, but hopefully we're going to be okay.
00:01:15So the minutes from our last meeting have been reviewed, and um, well...
00:01:19Oh yeah, whatever. Get on with it.
00:01:21Sorry. Really sorry.
00:01:23No, no. I'm not sitting through all of this. We need to talk about Holly.
00:01:27Well, we've got a meeting that's in the diary next week to discuss Holly.
00:01:30Every day she's excluded is another day she's missing her education. All her training for the athletic trials, it's just not fair.
00:01:37It's not lawful.
00:01:38I understand you're upset, but this isn't the appropriate forum.
00:01:42Appropriate forum? Waste of time!
00:01:50Um, perhaps we should move on to item one on the agenda. Um, cancellation of PTA fundraising event, a Q&A with Piers Mayhew.
00:01:59Any thoughts?
00:02:01Oh, here we go. Do we have to?
00:02:03Well, if you could please keep yourself on mute, unless you have something constructive.
00:02:07I'm sure you would love to mute me, Mr Crawford, but as Chairwoman of the PTA, I am entitled to have my say.
00:02:14Go for it, Moira.
00:02:15Counselling an event at such short notice is an insult to the work of this committee.
00:02:22Do you have any idea how difficult it is to secure a speaker like Piers Mayhew?
00:02:28He is your brother.
00:02:31Meaning?
00:02:32Was it that difficult to book him?
00:02:34He is the region's best-selling children's author.
00:02:37Given his recent outbursts on social media, I simply don't see how we can go ahead.
00:02:43Well, that's not what you were saying until Kara got involved. Where is she, anyway?
00:02:47She's off sick.
00:02:48She'll be in tomorrow.
00:02:49How convenient.
00:02:50I cannot allow you to keep derailing these meetings, Moira. If this continues, you will be ejected from this call.
00:02:58Derailing? I stayed on as PTA head as an act of goodwill because nobody else would do it.
00:03:04And we appreciate it. Item two of the agenda. Second-hand uniform sale.
00:03:11And as a PTA head, I am entitled to call an emergency meeting. It says so in the Constitution.
00:03:17Second-hand uniform sale.
00:03:19Have you read the PTA rules because they ve-
00:03:23Okay. I have muted you, Moira. I'm so sorry. There can be no further-
00:03:28Go on, I'm gonna-
00:03:36Happy?
00:03:37Yeah. Looks brilliant.
00:03:39Mmm, that smells incredible.
00:03:41We've got butter chicken, lamb skewers and dog.
00:03:44Oh. Oh, and you think you're getting some, do you? Well, you're out of luck because nobody wants to deal with the aftermath of that.
00:03:50We're just setting Paddy up to take the blame for you.
00:03:53That's an outrageous accusation. I don't know what you're talking about.
00:03:56See? He is home on time.
00:03:58What's that?
00:03:59Mum said you're unreliable.
00:04:01Hold on. I didn't say Dad was unreliable. I said sometimes his job, me-
00:04:09Winter?
00:04:11Ryan?
00:04:15Okay. I'll see you there.
00:04:17You're kidding.
00:04:19Dad. If I ever get married, it will not be to a policeman.
00:04:26What?
00:04:27Dad.
00:04:28What?
00:04:32I'm sorry.
00:04:33No, no, no.
00:04:38Oh.
00:04:39I'm sorry.
00:04:40I'm sorry.
00:04:42I'm sorry.
00:04:43No, no, no.
00:04:44What?
00:04:45I'm sorry.
00:04:46I'm sorry.
00:04:47Estelle Hallis, 52, head teacher. She was running a PTA meeting online when she was killed.
00:04:53She was killed on camera?
00:04:55In front of a dozen people. No one saw anything though. The killer must have stayed low and out of shot.
00:05:05That looks like a javelin.
00:05:08It is. The angle suggests it was an upward stabbing motion from lowdown.
00:05:17You won't need my help with time of death. It's on camera at 5.48 precisely.
00:05:25After school clubs finish at 5pm and then the school's locked and only the staff have the code.
00:05:30Next, have Kim been notified?
00:05:32Yeah, we're trying. There's a husband, Blake Anderson. He runs the bike shop in town but he's not picking up his phone.
00:05:39And then there's a daughter, Cara. She's an art teacher here but also uncontactable. Apparently she's off sick today.
00:05:46I assume curry nights cancel?
00:05:48No, no. Please go. They've gone to so much effort. You could get them to save some for me. Lamb skewers or something.
00:05:54Lamb... skewers?
00:05:57Or maybe just a naan.
00:06:00The javelin was kept here, sir.
00:06:03The javelin was kept here, sir.
00:06:18This must have been planned. They knew you should be on that call and you should be wearing headphones and wouldn't hear them coming.
00:06:25And there's something else.
00:06:33This classroom belongs to the victim's daughter, Cara. It's an interesting message, right?
00:06:41Always behind you.
00:06:43Not fully dry. This is recent. Who was first on the scene?
00:06:56Tim Crawford, deputy head.
00:06:58DCI Barnaby. Were you on the video call?
00:07:01I did it from my classroom just down the corridor.
00:07:03Did you see anybody?
00:07:04No. I ran over straight away but by the time I got...
00:07:10I'm sorry. Is there somewhere we can talk?
00:07:12Uh, the staff room's just here.
00:07:15Oh, uh, sorry, uh, end of year prank, I guess.
00:07:19Is this graffiti new?
00:07:26What's that?
00:07:27Oh, yes, uh, Hillary.
00:07:31Yeah, yeah, the kids love it when they find out my middle name.
00:07:35What kind of head teacher was Estelle?
00:07:37Well, she's ambitious, which is not a bad thing, but...
00:07:40I'll put it this way, she expelled more pupils in two years than the last head did in 12.
00:07:44Anyone recently?
00:07:46Holly Randall, last week.
00:07:48Her parents are appealing it.
00:07:50There was a Paul and Josephine Randall on the video call list she gave me.
00:07:53Yeah, that's them.
00:07:54Um, Paul, he stormed out at the beginning, but Josie, she was on for the whole call.
00:07:58How far away do they live?
00:07:59About just over the road.
00:08:01What was Holly expelled for?
00:08:03Um, she...
00:08:04Tim!
00:08:05You okay?
00:08:06Yeah, yeah, um, where are the girls?
00:08:08Oh, they're in the car. We were at their ballet lesson.
00:08:11Oh, sorry. I'm Felicity, I'm the school receptionist.
00:08:15Um, they were just asking about Holly Randall.
00:08:17Well, surely no-one's blaming her for this.
00:08:19I mean, well, she's made some silly mistakes, but...
00:08:22What kind of mistakes?
00:08:23She stole a brand new tablet from the ICT class, then sold it online.
00:08:27She was trying to get money to go on the year 12 residential, which is way too expensive now.
00:08:31Yeah, well, we can't use that place in the Lake District anymore, can we?
00:08:34Health and safety nightmare.
00:08:36Have you told them about the situation with Piers?
00:08:39Piers? No.
00:08:41Uh, Piers Mayhew. Um, he's the brother of our PTA chairwoman, Moira.
00:08:46He was meant to do a fundraiser for us, but...
00:08:49Well, he...
00:08:51He got a bit provocative on social media.
00:08:54He's a misogynist. And a troll.
00:08:57Unfortunately for him, one of the women he targeted was Estelle's daughter, Cara.
00:09:01She persuaded her mother to cancel his event, and he wasn't very happy about it.
00:09:05Neither was Moira. She threw a chair at them when she found out last Friday.
00:09:08That's why we moved a meeting online today.
00:09:10Have you managed to contact Cara?
00:09:12I've left messages.
00:09:13She was on a yoga retreat in Snowdonia over the weekend.
00:09:17Um, she did text Estelle to say that she was sick, so...
00:09:20She might not have travelled back yet.
00:09:22She was going on about some kind of digital detox.
00:09:26Very into that sort of thing.
00:09:28Thank you. We'll be in touch about opening the school tomorrow.
00:09:31Certain areas, obviously, will remain off-limits.
00:09:34Yep. Yep, of course.
00:09:37Um, DCI Barnaby?
00:09:40I don't know if this is important, but, um, when I was leaving today,
00:09:44Moira's grandson, Dominic, was hanging around outside Estelle's office.
00:09:48Well, he was giving a talk to the sixth form about starting university.
00:09:51Well, yes, but that was finished by 3.30, though. I saw him at 4.
00:09:55Look, I don't want to cause any problems.
00:09:57He's a great kid, but, um, it's just he looked pretty upset.
00:10:04What do you mean he was upset?
00:10:06Well, I think we said.
00:10:08What do you want to do?
00:10:09Well, I don't want to do a good job no matter if you don't do anything.
00:10:12So what do you want to do?
00:10:13Well, that's awesome.
00:10:14Oh, yeah.
00:10:15I don't like this.
00:10:17Hey, you look...
00:10:19Oh, look, I love it.
00:10:21You look, I don't look.
00:10:22I just don't even know if that's wrong.
00:10:23Oh, look.
00:10:24That's right.
00:10:25You look.
00:10:26Oh, that's right.
00:10:27Oh, my God.
00:10:28You look, I'm sorry.
00:10:29Oh, my God.
00:10:30You look, I'm sorry, you look.
00:10:31We used to live next door
00:10:41And when my daughter died
00:10:42When I was going through all the guardianship stuff for Dominic
00:10:45She held me together
00:10:47This must be very difficult
00:10:49I was shouting at her when it happened
00:10:51About stupid things
00:10:53Things that don't even matter
00:10:55Go ahead
00:10:55It's okay
00:10:56We heard about an incident in a meeting last Friday
00:10:59With a chair
00:11:00Who told you that
00:11:04I'd had enough
00:11:05That's all
00:11:06Karen had a book quantificating
00:11:08The chair was in my way so I moved it
00:11:11A bit too hard
00:11:13Sorry
00:11:16I don't see how all this is relevant
00:11:20I mean surely you're not accusing me
00:11:22I was on the video call
00:11:24You visited the school earlier
00:11:26Is that right
00:11:27I did a talk
00:11:28Yeah
00:11:28How to succeed at university
00:11:30Dominic was head boy
00:11:32He's now on a very competitive course
00:11:34Did you see Estelle Hallis?
00:11:37No
00:11:38Are you sure?
00:11:39A witness saw you outside her office at around 4pm
00:11:42Gran wanted me to nag her about this book event with Pierce
00:11:45I knocked
00:11:47And she didn't answer
00:11:48So I left
00:11:49The witness said that you looked upset
00:11:50I wasn't
00:11:51Hiya
00:11:57I thought you weren't in until tomorrow
00:11:59I thought you weren't in
00:12:01Oh I might
00:12:03Have you seen it out there?
00:12:04There's like 20 police cars at the school
00:12:06These gentlemen are the police
00:12:08Oh right
00:12:10Uh
00:12:11Reese Chapman
00:12:11She's the dusty old book
00:12:13Some of the fabulous textiles
00:12:14Estelle Hallis has been murdered
00:12:16What?
00:12:18Seriously?
00:12:19Seriously
00:12:19Stabbed to death with a javelin
00:12:21That's not how you tell people
00:12:23That's how you told me
00:12:24Does Kara know?
00:12:25We're trying to get hold of her
00:12:26Yeah she's not been picking up all weekend
00:12:28She's my housemate
00:12:29We were told she's on a yoga retreat in Wales
00:12:31Yeah but
00:12:32She should be back
00:12:33This is going to destroy her
00:12:36They were really close
00:12:38I'm sorry
00:12:40Do you mind?
00:12:43Did Estelle ever talk about her marriage?
00:12:47She seemed happy enough
00:12:49You don't like Blake?
00:12:50Don't trust him
00:12:51I don't know
00:12:52There's just
00:12:53Something
00:12:54Collie says he's alright
00:12:55My girlfriend
00:12:57She works a Saturday job at his bike shop
00:12:59Is that Holly Randall?
00:13:02Yeah
00:13:02So she works with Estelle's husband?
00:13:06Okay
00:13:06Well I've left my number
00:13:08Do call if Kara gets in touch
00:13:10It's unusual
00:13:22It's all my own work
00:13:25We run knitting sessions on Thursdays
00:13:27Everyone's welcome
00:13:27No my grand taught me to noon the school holidays
00:13:30But I couldn't do it now
00:13:32Well you never lose it
00:13:34It's like riding a big woolly bike
00:13:35Thanks
00:13:39Please don't be shy Winter
00:13:46I'd love a nice scarf
00:13:47Yeah hello
00:13:49Okay tell him to stay put
00:13:53I'll get DS Winter over there now
00:13:54Thanks
00:13:55Thanks
00:13:55Who was that?
00:13:58They've located Estelle's husband at the bike shop
00:14:01You go over there and see what you make of him
00:14:02While I talk to the girl who was expelled
00:14:04Only try not to needle him
00:14:08What?
00:14:10You see you've got to unravel the whole case
00:14:12Before you can knit it back together
00:14:14But don't let him pull the wool over your eyes
00:14:20Lunch boxes on the table and PE kits in the wash please
00:14:31Please
00:14:32Lucy seemed freaked out by all the police
00:14:37Wasn't sure what to say
00:14:38Oh come on
00:14:42Again?
00:14:44You promised that you would check next time before donating things
00:14:48That must stuff from the attic?
00:14:50Your older wards from school are still going on about that
00:14:53A tidy house helps me cope
00:14:55What's this?
00:14:58And these?
00:15:00You know what they are
00:15:02What are you doing?
00:15:16He said he waited
00:15:17You didn't turn up
00:15:18There was a bit of a problem
00:15:19I didn't want to worry you about it
00:15:21What sort of problem?
00:15:26Rhys?
00:15:26Okay, look
00:15:27Don't freak out
00:15:29But
00:15:29Kara is not on a yoga retreat in Wales
00:15:56I'd keep my phone off on the bike
00:16:26So when I turned it back on
00:16:27All the missed calls
00:16:28I knew it was bad
00:16:31I think I
00:16:32Can I see her?
00:16:35Because I think I need to
00:16:37For it to
00:16:37Feel real
00:16:39We can arrange that
00:16:41Of course
00:16:41Were you cycling with anyone today?
00:16:45I was on my own
00:16:47Up in the Johns
00:16:47How long had you been married?
00:16:51Eight years next month
00:16:52Second time lucky for both of us
00:16:54What's the situation with Estelle's first husband?
00:16:57Left when Kara was a baby
00:16:58How did you meet?
00:17:02Online
00:17:02She was teaching in Nottingham
00:17:08But she always wanted to move back to Midsummer
00:17:10So when she got the headmistress job
00:17:13We came down here
00:17:14We were told that she expelled a lot of students
00:17:16Did that make her any enemies?
00:17:18No
00:17:18It's not like she ever abandoned the kids
00:17:22She'd go out of her way to find them places at another school
00:17:25Somewhere they could
00:17:26Start again
00:17:28She was friends with Moira Mayhew
00:17:31Is that right?
00:17:32Was
00:17:32Yeah
00:17:33She phoned
00:17:34On Saturday
00:17:35Going ballistic about this
00:17:37Book event
00:17:38Estelle put her on speaker
00:17:41And the language coming out
00:17:42Seriously
00:17:44She might be getting on
00:17:47But she scares the hell out of me
00:17:49So Josie
00:18:00You were on the call right until the end
00:18:02But Paul
00:18:03You left a couple of minutes in
00:18:05I'd had enough
00:18:06I took myself outside to calm down
00:18:09Are the fields behind this house
00:18:12The school playing fields?
00:18:15I wasn't running across them
00:18:16To murder the headmistress
00:18:18If that's where you're going
00:18:18I was in the garden
00:18:21She could see me
00:18:22And what were you doing, Holly?
00:18:29Wasting my life in the park
00:18:30I'm sorry
00:18:32She's having a tricky time
00:18:34I heard about the expulsion
00:18:36You stole computer equipment
00:18:37It was stupid
00:18:38I said I was sorry
00:18:40Someone told her form teacher
00:18:42Cara Hollis
00:18:43We thought she'd helped sort it out
00:18:45But Cara told us still
00:18:46No discussion
00:18:48Just out
00:18:49For a kid who's never been
00:18:51Any trouble before
00:18:52I mean, we know what it's really about
00:18:54Holly's very sporty
00:18:56She was training for the school's
00:18:58National championships
00:18:59But she's not academic
00:19:01As such
00:19:02I'm really thick
00:19:04Ah
00:19:04That's not what she's saying
00:19:07It's just
00:19:08Estelle
00:19:09Estelle
00:19:09Was precious about those exam results
00:19:12So the decision was taken by the headmistress
00:19:14I don't know why Miss Hollis even thought she could tell her
00:19:17I thought she was alright
00:19:19But she was so fake
00:19:21I've got you Holly
00:19:23I'm always behind you
00:19:25Always behind you
00:19:28Are you sure you haven't been to the school today?
00:19:35Yeah
00:19:35Because there's graffiti on the wall of Cara Hollis' art room
00:19:40With that exact phrase
00:19:42Not in green paint?
00:19:44Yes
00:19:45You were washing green paint off your hands when you got home
00:19:48She told me it was off a fence in the park
00:19:50It was just a joke
00:19:51I was there
00:19:54Okay
00:19:55But I didn't touch Estelle Hollis
00:19:58Ask Dominic
00:20:00Dominic was with you at the school?
00:20:03I went to see him
00:20:04After his talk
00:20:05We were messing around in the staff room
00:20:08But then we heard the police cars turn up
00:20:11We made it out across the fields
00:20:12We were
00:20:26van
00:20:30van
00:20:38van
00:20:39van
00:20:41van
00:20:41van
00:20:41¿ daughter
00:20:42van
00:20:42van
00:20:42van
00:20:42Oh, Causton Grammar?
00:20:59Oh, yeah. I'm a teaching assistant.
00:21:03Ah. How do you find it there?
00:21:06Oh, um, I used to like it.
00:21:08Well, since Estelle started, there's a lot more politics now.
00:21:14What sort of thing?
00:21:15Everyone assumed Tim Crawford would be the next head.
00:21:18He applied for it, and his wife still isn't over it.
00:21:22Was there tension between Felicity and Estelle?
00:21:25She thought Estelle was trying to push Tim out.
00:21:28I just put it down to sour grapes, but then Felicity found an email chain with the governors, and...
00:21:33Did she confront Estelle?
00:21:35It was weird. She was going to.
00:21:37She was all riled up, and then changed her tune.
00:21:41Said it was all a misunderstanding, and refused to speak about it ever since.
00:21:45Okay. Well, thank you.
00:21:46If Cara Hallis does get in contact with anyone at the school, make sure she calls me straight away.
00:21:51Does Cara not know yet? Surely Tim called her.
00:21:55Everyone's calling her. No reply.
00:21:57Well, if she was going to pick up to anyone, it would be Tim.
00:21:59Why do you say that?
00:22:00Oh, he was her mentor in her NQT year.
00:22:06Just stuff and gossip, probably.
00:22:08Well, that was interesting.
00:22:14Follow up on Felicity Crawford's movements, because there was much more tension between Felicity and Estelle than she led on.
00:22:21She said that she was at ballet with her kids.
00:22:24I'll check.
00:22:25Well, so I've got an address for Piers Mayhew.
00:22:26His sister, Moira, definitely downplayed how hostile things were.
00:22:29Deception runs in the family, then.
00:22:32Because if Holly's telling the truth, Dominic Mayhew is lying through his teeth.
00:22:37What about?
00:22:38He told us he left the school at four.
00:22:41Holly says he was still there when Estelle was murdered.
00:22:55You're a kid's TV presenter.
00:22:57Yeah, guilty.
00:22:59And what were you a fan of?
00:23:00Crazy Carousel or Gunstown?
00:23:02Oh, no, I just saw the photos.
00:23:04Oh, well, before your time, obviously.
00:23:08I was glad to leave it all behind, to be honest.
00:23:11You're a children's author now.
00:23:13Yeah, it's a bit of a pivot.
00:23:14But I had this idea about a boy who can turn himself into sea creatures, and, well, it sold rather well.
00:23:21We're here to talk about Estelle Hallis.
00:23:23I believe Moira has told you what happened.
00:23:26Indeed.
00:23:27And I'm suspect numero uno, am I?
00:23:29Well, we have some questions.
00:23:32Estelle was weak.
00:23:34She caved into pressure from the snowflake mob.
00:23:36But it's her daughter, Cara, the real problem with.
00:23:38She was the one leading said mob.
00:23:40And you had an argument with Cara online?
00:23:43There was a debate about sensitivity, rewrites in children's books,
00:23:46expunging references to characters being fat, censorship, essentially.
00:23:50And I thought very strongly about it.
00:23:52And, yes, a few glasses of New World Rising had been consumed, and possibly I did overstep the mark.
00:23:57But nothing to justify my wholesale cancellation.
00:23:59Where were you this afternoon, around 5.45?
00:24:03Oh, I was at the Kinston Arms from five o'clock.
00:24:07The landlord, Pete, can vouch for me.
00:24:12This looks amazing.
00:24:14Sorry we're so late.
00:24:15Oh, don't worry.
00:24:16How cross is Betty with me on a scale of one to teenager?
00:24:22Oh, she'll get over it.
00:24:23But listen, is it really Estelle Hallis?
00:24:26I didn't, Claire.
00:24:28I promise.
00:24:29She didn't have to.
00:24:29It's all over the teacher message group.
00:24:31Well, I would never contradict a group of educators.
00:24:35Oh, well, I remember her from that conference in Birmingham last year.
00:24:38She's a fellow historian.
00:24:40She writes about female spies in World War II.
00:24:42It's fascinating.
00:24:44I'll put it on my reading list.
00:24:46I tell you what, I did not enjoy being back in the headteacher's office again today.
00:24:51Traumatic memories.
00:24:52I loved school.
00:24:53We know you did, head girl.
00:24:55We're an elite breed.
00:24:59I thought you'd be much more likely to get expelled.
00:25:02How dare you?
00:25:03I was an excellent head girl.
00:25:05I liked the power.
00:25:07Oh, yes.
00:25:08I can totally see it now.
00:25:10It was him over there getting himself expelled.
00:25:13I was not expelled.
00:25:17I was suspended.
00:25:19What did he do?
00:25:20Oh, just stupid 14-year-old stuff.
00:25:22So, Jess, come on.
00:25:27We will get it out of you.
00:25:31I can assure you, you won't.
00:25:33We will get it out of you.
00:25:39I don't know.
00:26:09Hi.
00:26:12Um, it's not a good time, Holly.
00:26:14I just wanted to say I'm sorry about your wife.
00:26:16I know me and her.
00:26:17She was trying to help you, Holly.
00:26:19She liked you, Holly.
00:26:21She expelled me.
00:26:22Because you stole from the school.
00:26:25Oh, nice, yeah.
00:26:26Why'd you steal these from me?
00:26:27I'm sorry.
00:26:29I just...
00:26:29Your last days were filled with nothing but stress because of you.
00:26:33Now get out!
00:26:34Blake?
00:26:35Don't come back.
00:26:37There's no job for you here anymore.
00:26:39All right, guys.
00:26:56Last stop.
00:26:58Have a good one.
00:26:59That was not true.
00:27:07What?
00:27:07What's that?
00:27:08I lost one to the door, please.
00:27:10Wait, wait, wait.
00:27:11Wait.
00:27:41and you're who you are?
00:27:51That was not true.
00:27:52Let's go.
00:27:52Let's go.
00:27:53Thanks, guys.
00:27:54I lost one to the door.
00:27:55Let's go.
00:27:56Let's go.
00:27:57Let's go.
00:27:58Oh, my God.
00:28:28Oh, my God.
00:28:58Ta-da.
00:28:59Oh, thanks, sir.
00:29:00Oh.
00:29:01Yeah, I thought I'd get back into it.
00:29:03It's going to be good for relaxation.
00:29:04Oh, you'd actually justify it to me.
00:29:06I would just question whether green is your colour.
00:29:09I'm told that it brings up my eyes.
00:29:13Oh, so it does.
00:29:14I stand corrected.
00:29:16Shall we watch some footage of a murder again, then?
00:29:18It's what we get paid for.
00:29:19Well, I hope there'll be some kind of reflection or something, but there's nothing.
00:29:29Well, they've been very careful.
00:29:30Yeah, they're not precisely 5.48.
00:29:37Anything else to see?
00:29:38No, they have cameras at key locations.
00:29:41We're not everywhere.
00:29:42Okay.
00:29:44Oh, Dominic admitted to lying.
00:29:47He was worried about getting in trouble for the graffiti, apparently.
00:29:50And he thought that was worth lying for in a murder investigation.
00:29:53What did you make of Estelle's husband?
00:29:58His grief seemed genuine enough, and there's no financial motive.
00:30:01Well, she's well off.
00:30:03Five rental properties between here and the Midlands.
00:30:05Yeah, but it all goes to Cara, though.
00:30:07The solicitor sent the will through this morning.
00:30:09I assume Cara hasn't made contact overnight.
00:30:11No.
00:30:12There's a text from her on Estelle's phone, though, sent Sunday night.
00:30:15Said that she had food poisoning and couldn't drive back.
00:30:17But I have contacted every yoga centre in Snowdonia,
00:30:20and not one of them has a record of her booking.
00:30:22Tracking her down needs to be a priority.
00:30:26I meant to be in a meeting upstairs.
00:30:28Just quickly.
00:30:30Traumatic aortic rupture.
00:30:32One clean stab.
00:30:34No hesitation.
00:30:37It's my pleasure.
00:30:39Any developments on our other case?
00:30:43What?
00:30:44What other case?
00:30:45I need you full-time on this.
00:30:46The case of the delinquent DCI.
00:30:50We're brainstorming reasons you got suspended from school.
00:30:54And what do you have so far?
00:30:56Setting off a fire extinguisher.
00:30:58Starting a food fight?
00:30:59Mm-mm.
00:31:00Something involving nudity.
00:31:04Miles off.
00:31:06Miles and miles.
00:31:08Mr. Crawford.
00:31:20Tim.
00:31:21Oh, hi, Moira.
00:31:24Dominic has something to say.
00:31:27Yeah, hi.
00:31:30Sorry for the damage to the staff room yesterday.
00:31:32It was me and Holly.
00:31:34Holly's the one who did the graffiti.
00:31:35He just didn't stop her.
00:31:38That sounds like we need to have a little chat.
00:31:43Right.
00:31:44Yes.
00:31:45It really wasn't his fault.
00:31:49I'm sorry.
00:31:50What were you thinking?
00:31:52How does that possibly help your case?
00:31:53I know.
00:31:54I made it all worse.
00:31:56You can still help me.
00:31:57I don't think I can.
00:31:58Not now.
00:31:59No.
00:32:00Please.
00:32:00Any idea where in Snowdonia it was?
00:32:10Aye.
00:32:13Or if she was going with anyone?
00:32:15She didn't tell me anything about it.
00:32:19She didn't take any of her yoga stuff?
00:32:21Well, she said they provided mats and everything.
00:32:26I thought you said she didn't tell you any details about the trip.
00:32:30Oh, well, yeah.
00:32:31No, she didn't.
00:32:33Just that.
00:32:34Just that one very specific thing.
00:32:39I can't do this.
00:32:42I'm feeling sick all the time.
00:32:45Look, there is no yoga retreat.
00:32:48She was supposed to fly to Boston Friday night, but she's disappeared.
00:32:52Why was she going to Boston?
00:32:54She was delivering a rare book to some American guy.
00:32:57Signed, first edition, all that.
00:33:00Except it was fake.
00:33:02Rare books?
00:33:03Is Moira Mayhew involved in this?
00:33:05I don't want to get her in trouble.
00:33:06She's just trying to put Dominic through uni, and I've got a slight tax issue.
00:33:11So you're selling fake books to collectors?
00:33:12It was just this one.
00:33:14The guy paid 70 grand, so he wanted it hand-delivered.
00:33:17She asked me to do it.
00:33:18How did Cara get involved?
00:33:21I didn't think about it until I agreed, but I got arrested at a climate change protest last year.
00:33:29I can't get the paperwork to enter the US.
00:33:31So you asked Cara to go instead?
00:33:34She was meant to be on the 9pm flight.
00:33:37I've been calling and calling.
00:33:39It's like she's vanished off the face of the planet.
00:33:41Winter, sorry I couldn't pick up.
00:33:49I had a feeling that Rhys Chapman was about to crack, and he did.
00:33:53Cara was never going on that yoga retreat.
00:33:56She was flying to Boston.
00:33:58Well, she didn't make it, sir.
00:34:02The school caretaker found her body half an hour ago.
00:34:20It's definitely her.
00:34:22Driving license.
00:34:23No sign of her phone, though.
00:34:25This is all due to be collected today.
00:34:29Flour?
00:34:31We've got a huge depressed skull fracture.
00:34:34Rigour has completely dissipated.
00:34:37I'd say she's been dead for three or four days.
00:34:40Friday or Saturday?
00:34:42So she'd already been dead for days by the time her mother was killed.
00:34:46So the message about food poisoning is from the killer, just playing for time.
00:34:50These were in her jacket.
00:34:51They're most commonly prescribed for anxiety and panic attacks.
00:34:56I can't see properly, but I think there's discolouration on the back of the calves.
00:35:04Caps and thighs, where the blood settled.
00:35:06Well, that tells us she wasn't always in this position.
00:35:12She was in a seated position somewhere for at least 12 hours after death.
00:35:19Then moved to the locker.
00:35:21We're missing a crime scene.
00:35:23Well, given where she's been found, let's focus on the school.
00:35:26Contaminated by hundreds of kids, apparently.
00:35:30We'll just have to do what we can.
00:35:33That's us in Barcelona.
00:35:34We travelled round Europe together last summer, our grand tour.
00:35:44I always thought boyfriends come and go and whatever, but...
00:35:49Me and Cara, I thought she'd always be in my life.
00:35:53It's a huge loss.
00:35:58I'm sorry.
00:35:59Yeah.
00:36:00Well, the main thing now is that he doesn't get away with it.
00:36:03Who?
00:36:05This guy, Pierce Mayhew.
00:36:07I know who he is.
00:36:11Cara got into an argument with him online.
00:36:13Yeah, but do you know about the other account?
00:36:15Our friend from art school, his auntie, used to work with Pierce on TV,
00:36:20and she told Cara all these stories about him.
00:36:22Drunk on set, abusive to runners, massive creep.
00:36:27And Cara set up an anonymous account to share the stories.
00:36:30Did Pierce know it was Cara?
00:36:32He found out last week.
00:36:34And he came to the house looking for it.
00:36:36He only left when I threatened to call the police.
00:36:38Hold on.
00:36:45This, uh, this last post on Thursday, stay tuned, more to come.
00:36:52Any idea what that was?
00:36:53No, but he was freaking out about the press,
00:36:56like anyone remembers who he is.
00:36:59Were you aware that Cara was taking medication for panic attacks?
00:37:03No.
00:37:05She did get a prescription last year.
00:37:07She saw an accident on a school trip, one of the instructors.
00:37:11I was worried about her popping pills, though.
00:37:13I thought she decided not to.
00:37:15I can't believe she didn't tell me that.
00:37:20She was my best friend.
00:37:31Winter?
00:37:32Oh, sir, someone's given the art room a thorough bleaching.
00:37:35But there's some blood showing up by the door.
00:37:37They're testing the store cupboard now,
00:37:39and it's lighting up like a Christmas tree.
00:37:41Sir, we know where her body was kept.
00:37:43Good work.
00:37:44Oh, one more thing, sir.
00:37:45She emailed Paul Randall on Wednesday,
00:37:48saying that she would contact the driving agency
00:37:49if he didn't do it himself.
00:37:50Paul then asked for a meeting with her.
00:37:52Do we know if that meeting took place?
00:37:54He's not on the visitor's log, but Rhys Chapman is.
00:37:57He's down as visiting Cara at 1.15 on Friday.
00:37:59That's the only entry I can find for him.
00:38:01Interesting.
00:38:02You didn't mention that.
00:38:04Well, let's pay the Randall's a visit,
00:38:07but first we need to talk to Piers Mayhew.
00:38:08It turns out that Cara was getting ready to destroy his reputation.
00:38:15People spread rumours online all the time.
00:38:17Nobody's going to pay attention to Cara.
00:38:19You seem very sure about that.
00:38:21Look, I wish you could help.
00:38:24But I was sitting in that chair most of the weekend,
00:38:25working on the next novel.
00:38:27Yes, I...
00:38:27Okay, I did run a few errands,
00:38:29so if you can give me a more specific time...
00:38:31So you can ask someone to lie for you?
00:38:34Like you did when Estelle was killed?
00:38:36Don't know what you mean.
00:38:38We spoke to the landlord of the Kyniston Arms on our way over here.
00:38:41Your friend Pete.
00:38:42Except he says he's not your friend.
00:38:45And he was only too happy to report
00:38:47that you were not at his pub from 5pm yesterday.
00:38:51You got there over an hour later at 6.15 and had one drink.
00:38:54And then phoned him and asked him to lie.
00:38:56Okay, okay, you got me.
00:38:59I've been extremely foolish.
00:39:01I listened to Moira and that was a mistake.
00:39:03What's Moira got to do with this?
00:39:05Well, she was afraid I'd be a suspect.
00:39:07And with good reason, as it turns out.
00:39:09Anyway, her panic was infectious
00:39:10and she persuaded me to get myself an alibi
00:39:12in a populated place as soon as possible.
00:39:15So where were you really when Estelle was killed?
00:39:17Well, unhelpfully for all of us,
00:39:19I was sitting at that computer writing.
00:39:23A task I must get back to.
00:39:24Well, if there's nothing else.
00:39:28Nothing for now.
00:39:30You're probably safe to take Pete off your Christmas card list, though.
00:39:39My grandmother had it and she lived right into her 80s,
00:39:41so we know it's not a death sentence.
00:39:43But still, MS.
00:39:48It's not what you want to hear.
00:39:50Of course.
00:39:52And you drive for a living.
00:39:54I was planning to declare it.
00:39:56And I do get it, I'm driving kids around,
00:39:58but what if I need a test to keep my licence?
00:40:01I wanted all the work lined up first.
00:40:03He's been keeping the driving to a minimum.
00:40:06But then another bill comes in.
00:40:09We overstretched on this place.
00:40:11It's got quite tight.
00:40:12You don't have to pretend.
00:40:14I know we're losing the house.
00:40:17And it's my fault, Karen.
00:40:19I told her about Dad's diagnosis
00:40:20back when I thought I could trust her.
00:40:22Before I killed her.
00:40:23That is.
00:40:24Obviously.
00:40:26Holly.
00:40:26That's a sick joke to make.
00:40:27Why would you say that?
00:40:28Why else are they here, though?
00:40:30They don't care about your health.
00:40:32Or my education.
00:40:33Or how you pay your bills.
00:40:35They think one of us did it.
00:40:37That's the only reason they're talking to us.
00:40:39I really do apologise.
00:40:41It's okay.
00:40:42We're here to ask difficult questions.
00:40:44And yes, it would be helpful
00:40:45if you could tell us where you were
00:40:47from Friday afternoon to Saturday night.
00:40:50Friday, we were all here.
00:40:52And Saturday, Paul was at the shops
00:40:53and me and Holly were doing the garden.
00:40:55It's Blake Anderson.
00:40:56You should be talking to.
00:40:58His wife and stepdaughter are both dead.
00:41:00And he's super aggressive.
00:41:01Your boyfriend said that you liked
00:41:03working with Blake.
00:41:04That was before he lost it with me.
00:41:08Like, I honestly thought it was going to hit me.
00:41:10I was just trying to give him some flowers.
00:41:12When was this?
00:41:13Last night.
00:41:15So instead of harassing my disabled dad,
00:41:18perhaps you could ask Blake
00:41:19why he has anger issues.
00:41:21And then you could leave us alone.
00:41:26What were you looking at?
00:41:46Holly?
00:41:49Hey?
00:42:19Oh.
00:42:32There's more in the dish if you'd like some.
00:42:35Ooh.
00:42:36Is that Estelle's academic work?
00:42:38No, photos from her phone, just checking I'm not missing anything.
00:42:42It looks like she did a knitting course at Top Yarns.
00:42:46I thought maybe it was her research because she's marked up the stitches with letters.
00:42:50Estelle was a historian. What would that have to do with knitting?
00:42:54Remember I said that she'd written about female spies in World War II?
00:42:59I remember everything you say.
00:43:01Well, sometimes they use knitting to hide messages.
00:43:04So they'd do sequences of smooth stitches and then raised stitches, like that,
00:43:09and it would spell out words in Morse code.
00:43:12One of the spies was called Phyllis Latour.
00:43:15Well, hang on. Phyllis Latour.
00:43:17This artwork is called Ooh La La Tour.
00:43:20Well, unless it's Ooh La La Tour, in which case she wasn't learning to knit.
00:43:24She was deciphering a code.
00:43:26Can you read this?
00:43:28I could give it a go, but you probably need a knitter, really.
00:43:31And I know just the man.
00:43:33Is everything okay with Holly?
00:43:52Mm-hmm. She's fine.
00:43:54I wanted to speak to you.
00:43:59Look, I'm her mother, aren't I?
00:44:02So I love her, no matter what.
00:44:04Okay.
00:44:05And you love her too.
00:44:07Enough to want to protect her.
00:44:10I think you know what I'm asking you, Dominic.
00:44:15I need you to tell me the truth.
00:44:19Oh, that's great.
00:44:31What does it say?
00:44:32You're kidding, Ryan.
00:44:33This is going to take me ages.
00:44:34I have the utmost faith in you.
00:44:36Anything more overnight?
00:44:37Oh, yes.
00:44:39Digital flagged something weird in Cara's search history.
00:44:45She kept searching for a Terence McGregor maths.
00:44:50Well, it seems that he was a professor of applied mathematics,
00:44:53lived in Badger's Drift, died five years ago, aged 87.
00:44:56And no obvious connection to Cara?
00:44:58Not that I can find.
00:44:59Well, keep digging.
00:45:01Okay, mother and daughter both killed on school grounds.
00:45:04Cara was killed first, so presumably it all starts with her.
00:45:07The last sighting of Cara was 4.50pm on Friday,
00:45:10when the in-person PTA meeting disbanded.
00:45:13When Moira threw a chair at her.
00:45:14Moira could have followed her into the classroom after the argument.
00:45:18What if Cara revealed that she knew about the book fraud?
00:45:21Or, um, Holly has to be high on the list.
00:45:24Well, she's impulsive.
00:45:25She felt betrayed by both Cara and Estelle.
00:45:28Yeah.
00:45:29Oh, we need to speak to Felicity Crawford again.
00:45:32I just heard back from the ballet studio that her kids go to,
00:45:35and they missed their lesson on Monday.
00:45:37So, I called their primary school, and she booked them in to stay late.
00:45:41So, Felicity lied about where she was when Estelle was killed.
00:45:46I'd like to talk to her about that,
00:45:48and about the Stafford gossip surrounding her husband and Cara.
00:45:53I did sort of twig that Cara had a crush on me.
00:46:06Did I do enough to discourage it?
00:46:08Probably not.
00:46:10It's nice to have the attention.
00:46:12You know what it's like.
00:46:14She was like a lovesick puppy.
00:46:16Tim had to have a word with her.
00:46:20It was reassuring, in a way.
00:46:23Wrong classroom!
00:46:25Sorry, miss.
00:46:31Reassuring that Cara had a crush on your husband.
00:46:34Well, no, that she made it so obvious.
00:46:37I mean, something had been going on, then she would have been more careful, wouldn't she?
00:46:41No lines were crossed.
00:46:43Not even slightly.
00:46:46Do you have any idea why your wife lied about taking your daughters to ballet on Monday?
00:46:51What?
00:46:53Where were they then?
00:46:54I went to see a psychotherapist.
00:46:58That's not what you said before.
00:47:00I lied because Tim was there, and it wasn't something that I wanted to discuss in front of my husband.
00:47:11I think there must be some crossed wires.
00:47:13Felicity and I, we don't have secrets.
00:47:18That is one complicated marriage.
00:47:20Let's see if the therapist backs her up, sir.
00:47:22There's been a new voicemail left on Estelle's mobile.
00:47:25It's from Dominic's university tutor.
00:47:27Apparently got himself kicked out.
00:47:29Estelle was trying to help.
00:47:31Oh, Sarah.
00:47:33Why is she calling you?
00:47:36Oh.
00:47:37I'll speak to Dominic.
00:47:38Hi, Sarah.
00:47:39Yeah, he's just realised.
00:47:42Non-attendance lectures.
00:47:44Failure to submit essays.
00:47:46After everything I did to help you get in there.
00:47:49The coaching.
00:47:50The extra tutorials.
00:47:54Maybe that was the problem.
00:47:57When I had to do it for myself, I couldn't cope, could I?
00:48:00You never let me learn to cope.
00:48:01I spoke to your tutor, Dominic.
00:48:02He said that Estelle called him at 4.30pm on Monday, that's about an hour before she was killed, saying that you had just left her office in a highly emotional state.
00:48:16Well, she called them for me.
00:48:19She said she couldn't, and Mr Crawford had already tried.
00:48:21Tim Crawford knew about this.
00:48:23He was trying to help.
00:48:24Just to be clear, Dominic, you're admitting that you met Estelle shortly before she was murdered, that you were in her office, and that you were upset.
00:48:31Well, I talked to her, but I didn't do anything.
00:48:34You told us that you just knocked on the office door, that you didn't go in.
00:48:37This is the third version of events you've given us?
00:48:40You've made everything so much harder for yourself.
00:48:45Why did you lie?
00:48:47Because I mess things up.
00:48:50It's what I do.
00:48:52Because I'm stupid.
00:48:54I need a minute.
00:48:55Don!
00:48:56I have a few questions for you, Moira, as well.
00:49:02About your book fraud.
00:49:04What?
00:49:06Fake first editions.
00:49:08Forged signatures.
00:49:10Rhys told my colleague everything.
00:49:22It's not my usual way of doing things, I can assure you.
00:49:26It's more Cara's involvement that we're focusing on now.
00:49:28She knew about the scam.
00:49:29Did she threaten to reveal it?
00:49:31I didn't know she was involved until Rhys told me on Monday.
00:49:36I'm telling you the truth.
00:49:41I'd make a joke about forgetfulness, but I can't remember how it goes.
00:49:44Well, come in, because you know what occurred to me this morning.
00:49:47You remember my old head of science who moved to Nottingham?
00:49:50Well, he ended up at the school that Estelle used to teach at.
00:49:54So, I gave him a ring this morning and Estelle's husband, Blake Anderson.
00:49:58Not Blake Anderson at all.
00:50:00What do you mean?
00:50:01Well, his real name is Benjamin Ashton.
00:50:03He went to prison for conning three separate women out of their life savings.
00:50:07They met when she was volunteering as a prison educator.
00:50:10So, his whole marriage to Estelle, that could be another romance scam.
00:50:15You should come and interview him with me, you're great at this.
00:50:17It's not difficult.
00:50:19I don't know why you always make such a song and dance about it.
00:50:23Oh.
00:50:32It took me a long time to believe that she liked me because obviously she knew my past.
00:50:38It was all out there, on the table.
00:50:43But she believed in new starts.
00:50:46She was willing to back me.
00:50:48And that made me think, I can back myself, you know?
00:50:52What about Cara? Did she know?
00:50:54We told her we met online.
00:50:56You should have been up front with us from the beginning.
00:51:01I was going to tell you, but I couldn't.
00:51:03So it's all at the bottom of the lake now.
00:51:06What is?
00:51:08My old life.
00:51:10Or what was left of it.
00:51:11Mementos and photos of my parents.
00:51:14I threw them away.
00:51:16I was afraid you were going to search my shop.
00:51:20Where were you over the weekend?
00:51:23At home.
00:51:25With Estelle.
00:51:27But I can only give you my word for that, and I know that's not worth much.
00:51:30In light of Cara's death, your wife's estate is all yours.
00:51:34Her pension, her property.
00:51:35It is, yeah.
00:51:37I think it's worth quite a lot.
00:51:41But Estelle is the one person who knew every last bit of me
00:51:47and said yes to it all.
00:51:50So I profit from this.
00:51:52Yeah, I know I do.
00:51:54But all I can think about is what I've lost.
00:51:56Oh.
00:52:10You're Dominic's girlfriend, aren't you?
00:52:13Yeah.
00:52:15And what do you want?
00:52:18Money.
00:52:25Packish?
00:52:28No, it's for the guys at the station.
00:52:31I mean, helping me with this knitted artwork.
00:52:33And, wow.
00:52:37These stitches in the speech bubble are indeed Morse code.
00:52:41And it's all about Cara.
00:52:42It's basically Rhys declaring his love for her.
00:52:44Oh, I assumed he was...
00:52:46Oh, ignore me.
00:52:47And never assume.
00:52:49So Estelle understood the reference to Phyllis Latour
00:52:53and cracked the code only to discover it was about her own daughter.
00:52:57If Estelle told Cara, then that would make sense of the message
00:53:01that she sent her mother on Friday morning.
00:53:04Here.
00:53:05I'm worried.
00:53:06It's obvious I know.
00:53:07I'll need to have the talk.
00:53:09So you think Cara was planning to confront Rhys?
00:53:11Well, it could be why he visited the school on Friday,
00:53:14and she asked him to talk, and then she rejected him,
00:53:16and he snapped.
00:53:18You've been killed for less.
00:53:21Sir.
00:53:29There.
00:53:41Both computers are still here. All my first editions are accounted for.
00:53:54I don't understand it.
00:53:55Well, you must have been looking for something.
00:53:56I've no idea what.
00:53:57They've left my stuff alone.
00:53:58I don't think there's much of a market in stolen knitting needles.
00:54:00I'm sure they're right.
00:54:01Can I have a word with you in private?
00:54:03Yeah, if you need to.
00:54:04I've got things to do upstairs.
00:54:07Shall we go through there?
00:54:09Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:54:10I'm sure you're right.
00:54:11Can I have a word with you in private?
00:54:12Yeah, if you need to.
00:54:14I've got things to do upstairs.
00:54:18Shall we go through there?
00:54:20Oh, yeah.
00:54:21Yeah.
00:54:22Yeah.
00:54:23Yeah.
00:54:24Yeah.
00:54:25Yeah.
00:54:26Yeah.
00:54:27Yeah.
00:54:28Yeah.
00:54:29Yeah.
00:54:30Yeah.
00:54:31Yeah.
00:54:32It's about your relationship with Kara.
00:54:37Is it purely platonic?
00:54:39Of course, yeah.
00:54:41On both sides?
00:54:42I'm not sure what you're getting at.
00:54:46The message in the speech bubble.
00:54:49Do you want me to spell it out for you?
00:54:52Well, that's art. It doesn't literally mean...
00:54:55I think it does.
00:54:57You were in love with Kara.
00:54:59You couldn't tell her, so you poured it into your art.
00:55:03But Estelle spotted the Latour reference, didn't she?
00:55:14It all came out last week.
00:55:17Because I've been dating men for so long,
00:55:18Kara forgot that bi does actually mean bi.
00:55:23She was acting like I tricked her or something.
00:55:26So she rejected you?
00:55:29The rejection, I could handle it.
00:55:32It was the awkwardness.
00:55:33It was like she was wary around me. It was awful.
00:55:36Is that why you visited Kara at school on Friday?
00:55:39I just needed to make things right before she got on the plane.
00:55:43And she said we were good, but...
00:55:45We weren't.
00:55:47I could feel it.
00:55:49And after that conversation, what did you do?
00:55:51I went straight back home.
00:55:55Look, it's obvious where you've taken this, and you're so wrong.
00:55:59I could never, ever hurt Kara.
00:56:02One more thing for now.
00:56:04Does the name Terence McGregor mean anything to you?
00:56:07I've never heard of him.
00:56:09He was a maths professor. Kara seemed to be researching him.
00:56:12I know who he is!
00:56:13I couldn't help overhearing.
00:56:16I bought some crates of books from his estate when he died.
00:56:20Turned out to include some highly sought-after talkings.
00:56:23But I don't know why on earth Kara was interested.
00:56:36Rotten fish in the air vent?
00:56:38What?
00:56:40Fifty chickens in the staff room.
00:56:41A truckload of horse manure in the car park.
00:56:47Are you really so desperate to know what got me suspended?
00:56:51I most certainly am.
00:56:54Well, Dr. Perkins, I will tell you, on one condition...
00:56:59Name it.
00:57:00Under no circumstances does this get back to winter.
00:57:05It was a weed killer on the school sports field.
00:57:10Applied to burn the grass in a...
00:57:12In a certain shape.
00:57:15A shape a teenage boy might find amusing.
00:57:20The very one.
00:57:22Lucky to get away with just a suspension.
00:57:24Oh, I got a lot more than that.
00:57:25My parents persuaded a police officer friend to turn up on our doorstep in uniform.
00:57:32He said he had some questions.
00:57:33He frightened the hell out of me.
00:57:34Stellar parenting.
00:57:35Stellar parenting.
00:57:36Yeah.
00:57:37But then his questions were all about why I'd done it.
00:57:43He was genuinely curious about why I was acting out, you know.
00:57:47And he showed me that you could make a mistake and it could be okay.
00:57:51You could come back from it.
00:57:54I sometimes wonder if that conversation was the reason I became a police officer.
00:58:01That's actually really nice.
00:58:03I became a pathologist because I like knives.
00:58:11And on the subject of pathology...
00:58:13Ah, yes.
00:58:14Cause of death was the depressed skull fracture.
00:58:19She was hit once, very hard, with a pointed object.
00:58:23This was on display in the art room.
00:58:26Traces of blood and bleach.
00:58:28I sent it to the lab for DNA.
00:58:30Sorry, I'm late.
00:58:33Felicity's therapist called.
00:58:35She was with him when Estelle was killed.
00:58:37That's Tim and Felicity both accounted for, then.
00:58:41Yeah.
00:58:44What?
00:58:45No, it's just...
00:58:46It's not impossible they're working with a third party, is it?
00:58:49It's just something the therapist said.
00:58:51He assumed that I was calling because Estelle had followed through on a threat that she made to Felicity about going to the police.
00:58:58What about?
00:58:58Well, he wouldn't say, like confidentiality, but I looked him up online and he's an addiction specialist.
00:59:09This is humiliating.
00:59:12We're not here to embarrass you, we just need the facts.
00:59:15Felicity gets quite anxious.
00:59:17Ever since the girls were born, really.
00:59:21We all deal with stress in different ways, don't we?
00:59:24And for Felicity, she...
00:59:27Well, she takes things without pain.
00:59:32Shortlifting.
00:59:34It just happens when things get on top of me.
00:59:37It's not even the stuff that she wants.
00:59:39Most of it ends up in the bin.
00:59:40Did Estelle know about this?
00:59:43No.
00:59:44Yes.
00:59:46Well, she did.
00:59:48I mean...
00:59:49When I tried to talk to her about the way she was treating you...
00:59:52She said that...
00:59:53She said that she'd noticed me taking things.
00:59:59Christmas fairs.
01:00:00Summer fates.
01:00:03I mean...
01:00:04She framed it as concern, you know, how can I help?
01:00:06But...
01:00:08The message was clear.
01:00:11She had something over you.
01:00:13Well, that doesn't mean anything, does it?
01:00:15You know that Felicity didn't kill Estelle.
01:00:18She can't be in two places at the same time.
01:00:33What's this?
01:00:34A music festival in Croatia.
01:00:36I need you to give these to Dominic.
01:00:39Help him go over the studio diversity business.
01:00:40Since when did you take the slightest interest in Dominic?
01:00:47Since he and his girlfriend took an interest in me.
01:01:10Dominic!
01:01:20I've got a surprise for you from your uncle.
01:01:25Dominic!
01:01:27Don!
01:01:29Oh, my goodness.
01:01:31Oh, my goodness.
01:01:31Oh, my goodness.
01:01:40Oh, my goodness.
01:02:05Oh, my goodness.
01:02:07There's nothing obviously missing as far as Moira can tell
01:02:18She can barely speak
01:02:19The knitting needle hit the carotid artery
01:02:22Massive blood loss
01:02:24Triggering brain hypoxia
01:02:26Moira said that the shop was closed
01:02:29This has got to be linked to the break-in, surely
01:02:31No sign of forced entry this time
01:02:33And no obvious struggle
01:02:35Dominic led them in, he trusted them
01:02:37Well, they had their own keys
01:02:39Besides Dominic and Moira, that leaves Rhys and Piers
01:02:53What's Holly said so far?
01:02:56She claims she was here all morning
01:02:58Left at 12.30
01:02:59She sent me these
01:03:01Which were taken around midday
01:03:03Hmm, that globe has been moved
01:03:14Is it still somewhere in the flat?
01:03:16I'm not sure
01:03:17Do you think it's valuable?
01:03:19Well, it looks old
01:03:20Just check it's still here
01:03:21So
01:03:22I'm going to talk to Holly
01:03:24He was fine when I left them
01:03:35I swear
01:03:36Nobody's accusing you, Holly
01:03:37Just tell him what you told us about Piers
01:03:40Piers doesn't write his own books
01:03:44He stole them
01:03:45Me and Dominic started blackmailing him about it
01:03:49What do you mean, he stole them?
01:03:54It was years ago
01:03:56Dominic came across these old notebooks in the bottom of a box in the shop
01:04:00They belonged to some lecturer who died
01:04:04A maths lecturer
01:04:05Um, Terence McGregor
01:04:08Yeah
01:04:08That's it
01:04:10Um
01:04:11They were full of these handwritten stories
01:04:16Dominic got really into them
01:04:19Piers had a look and wanted to borrow them
01:04:22Who else knew about this?
01:04:26Piers gave Dominic £500 to keep quiet
01:04:29Then Dominic told me
01:04:32And when Cara got into the whole thing with Piers online
01:04:35I told her
01:04:36Was Cara threatening to go public?
01:04:40She said she needed to check it was true first
01:04:43But I went to see him yesterday
01:04:46You went to blackmail him?
01:04:50He agreed to pay for a few things
01:04:51As long as we kept quiet
01:04:54So excited to tell him
01:04:57But now what if I've got him killed?
01:05:02The only person responsible for Dominic's death is the person who killed him
01:05:05Look
01:05:12No sign of that globe
01:05:14Moira said that she was collecting things at the shop for the PTA jumble sale
01:05:18It came in as a donation
01:05:20Cara saw it, said that she liked it
01:05:22And asked Moira to put it aside for her
01:05:23Wait a minute
01:05:24So Cara showed an interest in this globe
01:05:26And then Dominic had it in his possession
01:05:28Until it vanished around the time he was killed
01:05:31You're thinking whoever killed Dominic
01:05:33Took the globe from the flat
01:05:34Why?
01:05:35Logically there would be two options
01:05:37They wanted it themselves
01:05:39Or they wanted to stop someone else getting hold of it
01:05:41In which case what have they done with it?
01:05:43Hidden it?
01:05:44Disposed of it?
01:05:45Get Uniform to have a look round
01:05:47Just in the immediate area
01:05:48In case they dumped it straight away
01:05:49In the meantime I have some questions for Piers Mayhew
01:05:53Midsummer's premier plagiarist apparently
01:05:56What globe?
01:06:01I've been sitting here the whole time writing
01:06:03It's what I do
01:06:04Hmm
01:06:05The new novel
01:06:07How's that going?
01:06:09Slowly
01:06:09I'd like you to read this please
01:06:14I know what it says
01:06:24These stories
01:06:28None of them are yours
01:06:30You stole them
01:06:32I used the material as a springboard
01:06:34That's all
01:06:35It's plagiarism
01:06:36But as you like stories
01:06:39Once upon a time
01:06:41Dominic told Holly that you stole your novels
01:06:44Holly told Kara
01:06:45And she was going to tell the world
01:06:47Only before she had a chance
01:06:49She was killed
01:06:51This is absurd
01:06:52I did not do this
01:06:54Plot twist
01:06:55Kara told her mother
01:06:57Estelle
01:06:57And she was killed too
01:07:00If you have evidence to arrest me
01:07:05Go ahead
01:07:06Otherwise this little
01:07:08Storytelling session
01:07:10Is over
01:07:11Here's has to be top of our list
01:07:22Estelle, Kara and Dominic
01:07:24Were blowing his world apart
01:07:25Between them
01:07:26I don't suppose that globe's turned up
01:07:28No
01:07:29Uniform check
01:07:29The wheelie bins
01:07:30The public litter bins
01:07:31The park
01:07:31What?
01:07:34I walked past that fencing a few hours ago
01:07:36It wasn't pulled open like that
01:07:37Are you serious?
01:07:42I'm serious
01:07:43Okay, fine
01:07:45I really should have stopped buying new suits
01:07:51With respect, sir
01:07:53This is a complete waste of
01:07:55Hold on
01:07:58You were saying
01:08:06That your hunches are always right, sir
01:08:09A prize for academic excellence
01:08:21Presented to
01:08:22Timothy Hillary Crawford
01:08:25Year 8
01:08:25By Mr. Vincent Bell
01:08:27Headmaster
01:08:28Oh, this is Tim Crawford's globe
01:08:32Tim's
01:08:33From when he was at school
01:08:35Okay
01:08:36But if this was in the PTA donations
01:08:39Then why did Kara ask Moira to put it aside for her?
01:08:42I think I might know
01:08:43Vincent Bell
01:08:45Here, look
01:08:46Vincent Bell, 72
01:08:48Fell to his death
01:08:49While facilitating
01:08:50A residential trip
01:08:51For a group of
01:08:51Year 12 students
01:08:52From Causton Grammar
01:08:55That's the school trip
01:08:56Tim organized
01:08:57In the Lake District
01:08:57And the man who died
01:08:59Was his old headmaster
01:09:00Kara
01:09:01Witnessed the accident
01:09:02On that school trip, too
01:09:03Reese said
01:09:04That's what started
01:09:05Her panic attacks
01:09:06Was she aware
01:09:07That the man
01:09:08She saw die
01:09:09Was Tim's headmaster
01:09:10Was it only seeing
01:09:12This globe
01:09:12That told her that?
01:09:15Come on
01:09:15He was just a random
01:09:20Old guy
01:09:20Helping out
01:09:21At the center
01:09:22But Kara saw his body
01:09:23Hit the ground
01:09:24And that's why
01:09:24She couldn't sleep for ages
01:09:26Did she mention
01:09:27That Tim knew him
01:09:28From when he was at school?
01:09:30What?
01:09:31No
01:09:31She definitely
01:09:32Would have mentioned that
01:09:33As far as she was concerned
01:09:35He was a stranger
01:09:35To both of them
01:09:36What did Kara say
01:09:37When she asked you
01:09:38To keep the globe for her?
01:09:40Just to make sure
01:09:41It didn't end up
01:09:41With the jumble sale stuff
01:09:43She said she needed
01:09:44To show it to someone
01:09:45Thank you
01:09:46Take good care of each other
01:09:53So Tim never let on
01:09:59That he knew Vincent Bell
01:10:00And then
01:10:01Kara saw the globe
01:10:03That's all the names
01:10:03And made the connection
01:10:04Exactly
01:10:05And there's one obvious reason
01:10:07Why Tim
01:10:08Would cover up his connection
01:10:09To Vincent Bell
01:10:10Isn't there?
01:10:12It wasn't an accident
01:10:13Well, so
01:10:14But it can't be Tim though
01:10:16Can it?
01:10:16We have him on video
01:10:17When Estelle was murdered
01:10:18And even if he was
01:10:20Working with his wife
01:10:20Or something
01:10:21We know that she was
01:10:21With his therapist
01:10:22I know
01:10:23But what if there
01:10:25Was a way
01:10:26To be in two places
01:10:27At once?
01:10:31There
01:10:31Slow that down
01:10:32It actually cuts out
01:10:38For a split second
01:10:39546 precisely
01:10:40Two minutes before
01:10:42Estelle is killed
01:10:43You could run
01:10:44From Tim's classroom
01:10:46To Estelle's office
01:10:47In that time
01:10:47Tim said he was
01:10:48Having technical issues
01:10:50You know
01:10:51It's possible
01:10:52That all the footage
01:10:53We're seeing
01:10:54After it cuts out
01:10:56Was pre-filmed
01:10:58Go to the bit
01:10:59With the javelin
01:11:00Look at the time stamp
01:11:05It's not 548
01:11:08In a few seconds
01:11:08It's 548
01:11:09On the absolute dart
01:11:11He timed the javelin
01:11:14To coordinate
01:11:15With his faked reaction
01:11:18On the pre-filmed footage
01:11:20So you go on my whistle
01:11:24Mr. Crawford
01:11:30We haven't informed
01:11:32The students yet
01:11:33Doesn't feel real
01:11:35Does it?
01:11:35I mean
01:11:36Who want to hurt
01:11:38Dominic
01:11:38Oh indeed
01:11:40I believe this belongs
01:11:43To you
01:11:44Why don't you tell us
01:11:47About Vincent Bell
01:11:49Or Mr. Bell
01:11:51As I suppose he was
01:11:51To you
01:11:52Being your headmaster
01:11:54I don't want to talk
01:11:54About him
01:11:55Not here
01:11:58We know
01:12:08What you did
01:12:10We have a good idea
01:12:11How you did it
01:12:13We'd just like to know why
01:12:16Why?
01:12:21Because he was a monster
01:12:24He was a bully
01:12:27He belittled us
01:12:29Terrified us
01:12:30Day and night
01:12:31Was this a boarding school?
01:12:33Yes
01:12:34There's no escape
01:12:36I know for a fact
01:12:38There are men out there
01:12:39Middle aged men
01:12:40They're suffering from depression
01:12:42Unable to form relationships
01:12:44Because of the damage
01:12:45That he did
01:12:46You tried to be a good student
01:12:49You know
01:12:53The day that I won that
01:12:56He said it made me conceited
01:12:59He made me
01:13:03Take off my socks
01:13:06And shoes
01:13:07And run 20 laps
01:13:09Around the school
01:13:10And when he saw
01:13:13That my feet were bleeding
01:13:14Do you know what he did
01:13:15DCI Barnaby
01:13:16He smiled
01:13:19That man
01:13:22Was a sadist
01:13:23Then all those years later
01:13:26At the outdoor centre
01:13:28There he was
01:13:30It was recorded
01:13:35As an abseiling accident
01:13:36Yeah, he was
01:13:39He was setting up a line
01:13:41So he was
01:13:41Close to the edge
01:13:43Excuse me
01:13:45Did I have to keep
01:13:46Hello, Timothy
01:13:51I thought I recognised the name
01:13:55I was back there
01:13:56A 13-year-old little boy
01:14:00I was humiliated
01:14:04Frightened
01:14:05But there was this anger inside
01:14:08I was so incredibly angry
01:14:10And I knew
01:14:12And I knew
01:14:12I knew in that moment
01:14:13It was so clear
01:14:15And the only way for a man like Vincent Bell
01:14:23To face consequences
01:14:25Was for a man like me
01:14:27To make him
01:14:28But Kara saw it
01:14:30Kara
01:14:34She saw something
01:14:38I never knew exactly how much
01:14:43But
01:14:43She trusted me
01:14:47And you used that
01:14:49And you used that
01:14:49You made her believe your lies
01:14:52Over the evidence of her own eyes
01:14:54Until
01:14:55That was hidden in the back of an attic
01:14:58I'd forgotten it existed
01:14:59Oh, and then when Felicity had given it to a jumbo sale
01:15:04It was like this grenade was out there waiting to go off
01:15:07I couldn't track it down
01:15:08Kara spotted it
01:15:09In the donations at the shop
01:15:11She saw your name and his name engraved side by side
01:15:15Difficult for her to make the connection
01:15:16I saw you
01:15:18You had your hands on him
01:15:19I was trying to grab him
01:15:21And you knew him
01:15:22There's only one reason you'd lie about that
01:15:26I'm sorry
01:15:29Where are you going?
01:15:31Kara, please
01:15:32She was going to the police
01:15:37You hid her body in a cupboard
01:15:40You moved it to the locker at the weekend
01:15:43You knew they were going to the tip
01:15:44But
01:15:45What if she'd confided in someone else?
01:15:48I read her messages
01:15:49And that there was one to Estelle
01:15:52Something like
01:15:54I'm
01:15:54I'm worried
01:15:56He knows that I know
01:15:58We believe that message referred to something else
01:16:02It was about her friend Rhys
01:16:05It had nothing to do with you
01:16:08How did you fake the video call footage?
01:16:16I
01:16:16I filmed myself over the weekend
01:16:19And then I switched the feeds
01:16:21Counseling an event
01:16:23At such short notice
01:16:25Is an insult
01:16:26To the work of this committee
01:16:28Do you have any idea
01:16:31How difficult it is
01:16:32To secure a speaker like
01:16:34Pierce Mayhew
01:16:35He is your brother
01:16:37Was it that difficult to book him?
01:16:41He is the region's
01:16:42Best selling children's offer
01:16:44Given his recent adverts on social media
01:16:46I simply don't see how
01:16:48We appreciate it
01:16:49Item two on the agenda
01:16:51Secondhand uniform sale
01:16:53So you ran over there
01:16:55And they were too busy shouting at each other
01:16:58To pay any attention to me
01:16:59I knew there would be
01:17:00And as a PTA head
01:17:03I am entitled to call an American
01:17:05Existence
01:17:07But the incriminating globe was still out there
01:17:25That was you
01:17:26The break-in at Moira's shop
01:17:27Trying to get it back
01:17:28Kyra said it was there
01:17:30But when I broke it
01:17:31And I couldn't find it
01:17:31You know
01:17:33I knew that Dominic
01:17:34Had seen it though
01:17:35That graffiti
01:17:36In the staff room
01:17:38I
01:17:38I never told them
01:17:39My middle name
01:17:40You were afraid
01:17:42That he'd work it out
01:17:43He knew about the incident
01:17:45On the school trip
01:17:46Everyone did
01:17:46There you go
01:17:50Oh thanks
01:17:51Presented to Timothy Hillary Crawford
01:17:56Year eight
01:17:58By Mr. Vincent Bell
01:17:59Headmaster
01:18:00Imagine going through school
01:18:02With a middle name Hillary
01:18:03Vincent Bell
01:18:05I knew I heard that name
01:18:07That old guy who died
01:18:09On the year twelve trip
01:18:10Was it?
01:18:11I can't remember now
01:18:13Yeah
01:18:14It definitely was
01:18:15Bell's a pretty common name
01:18:16But the Vincent Bell
01:18:19Who died
01:18:19Was a retired teacher
01:18:20It said so in the papers
01:18:22Sir
01:18:24Why would you say
01:18:26You didn't know?
01:18:29You killed him
01:18:30Nineteen years old
01:18:31I didn't want to
01:18:34I just thought
01:18:37If I could get the globe back
01:18:38You murdered Cara
01:18:40Estelle
01:18:40And Dominic
01:18:41To cover up
01:18:41The truth about
01:18:43Vincent Bell's death
01:18:44Where was this going to end?
01:18:47Holly Randall
01:18:47Saw that globe too
01:18:49Was she next?
01:18:56A week ago
01:18:57That was me
01:18:59A good teacher
01:19:02A good man
01:19:06That's the one thing
01:19:10Vincent Bell
01:19:11Did for me
01:19:11He made me want
01:19:14To be a teacher too
01:19:15So that I could do better
01:19:16And I did
01:19:22Do better
01:19:23I don't understand
01:19:29How I let this happen
01:19:30Sir
01:19:46Sir
01:19:46Sir
01:19:48Sir
01:19:50Sir
01:19:50Sir
01:19:52Sir
01:19:54Sir!
01:19:57Sir!
01:19:59Almost left this in the office.
01:20:08Oh, thank you. That's great.
01:20:10Oh, it's brilliant, rebel.
01:20:13Don't know the half.
01:20:17I'm going to join you for the second round, actually.
01:20:19There's something I need to do first.
01:20:24It's okay. I haven't come to interrogate you.
01:20:38I just thought you might be feeling like you've messed up
01:20:41and that there's no way to come back from it,
01:20:43so I just wanted to tell you about something.
01:20:46What is it?
01:20:48Something incredibly stupid that I did
01:20:51when I was around your age involving a sports field
01:20:55and a bottle of weed killer.
01:20:57Well, I don't get it.
01:20:59What was it?
01:21:01Well, it turned out it was the making of me.
01:21:06All right. Come on in.
01:21:10Just once around the block?
01:21:21Yeah. As long as he gets a decent walk at lunchtime, he'll be fine.
01:21:24What do you look like, eh?
01:21:26No, sorry about that. I'll get the next round in.
01:21:29There's no need. It's on Jamie.
01:21:31Ah!
01:21:32Who will also be dog-sitting next weekend,
01:21:35jet-washing the patio and helping you trim that edge.
01:21:38Because...
01:21:40We brokered a deal.

01:21:45So I finally went through the boxes in the shed
01:21:48and it turns out your mother kept it.
01:21:51The local paper with a full-page spread
01:21:55detailing your little teenage incident that led to your suspension.
01:22:07Nobody breathes a word of this to Betty, okay?
01:22:10Because I'm supposed to set an example.
01:22:12I'm a figure of authority and sound judgement.
01:22:15Oh, for goodness sake, it's not that funny.
01:22:17It is. I mean the sheer scale of this artwork.
01:22:20Anatomically correct?
01:22:22Yes, I mean you can see it from space.
01:22:24It did take me quite a while.
01:22:26Oh, this is amazing.
01:22:29This might be the greatest day of my life.
01:22:37Yes.
