01:00If you could trim the hedges on the south field, then Lewis will sort the feeding and the bedding.
01:07Yeah, it's decent of him to step in.
01:09Oh, that'll be him now.
01:14Morning. I'm DC Stewart. Is Moira dingling?
01:17Yes, that's me.
01:21Hello. I wondered if we could ask you a few questions about Celia Daniels.
01:25Not now, I can't, no.
01:26Oh, I'm afraid it's important.
01:28Well, so is picking up my husband from hospital. He's just been discharged after being shot.
01:33I take it you work here too?
01:35Yeah, I'm Robert Sugden, part owner.
01:37Right, okay. Are all staff in today because I'll need to speak to everyone?
01:42Uh, Ross and Matty are in later. Max just got out of hospital.
01:47I know Victoria's got the day off. She's part owner too, but more of a silent one.
01:52Well, I'll need her contact details.
01:54She doesn't know anything that I can't tell you.
01:56Even so, I will need to speak to her directly.
01:58I'll give her a call and tell her to come up.
02:00Any idea how long you'll be?
02:01No, sorry. I'm not rushing him, but once he's home I'll answer anything you want.
02:06Well, I'll probably need to speak to your husband too.
02:09I'm sure he'll have a few things to say.
02:11Excuse me.
02:27Thanks.
02:28Ganga aren't happy.
02:30I wonder if they're getting paid for standing around.
02:32How long's this going to take?
02:34Can't put a clock on it, Mr Milligan. Sorry.
02:37Drugs again.
02:38You emptied this place a few months back and you didn't find anything.
02:42Is this, um...
02:44Is this anything to do with that Celia?
02:46These are for those two.
02:48Mm-hmm.
02:49And the others are on the way.
02:50Okay, thanks. I'll need the driver logs too, please.
02:53This is going to cost us a fortune.
02:56Yeah, tell me about it. I've got no choice of one.
02:58It's like the van you drove you the day.
03:01Yeah.
03:03Not going to find anything, are they?
03:05Like the ton of cocaine I picked up off Pablo.
03:07Okay, secure the area. We're going to need a full cordon and get Socko here immediately.
03:18We have a deceased male.
03:21Have either of you ever visited Celia's farm?
03:24Not me.
03:25Not me neither.
03:26Honestly, we had no idea what was going on up there.
03:30Well, we understand that Moira and her husband did go up to the farm the day after a very public argument in the Woolpack pub on December the 18th.
03:39Well, I wasn't in the pub but I did hear that Moira was upset.
03:42Well, by all accounts she was so upset that she slapped Celia.
03:46Do you know what they fell out about?
03:48I think it was a mix-up over invoices.
03:51Well, she didn't give you any details.
03:54Does that not strike you as unusual?
03:56No, because the poultry deals were their own side project.
04:00Only Moira signed off the contracts.
04:02And plus she probably didn't want us to worry.
04:05The farm's had some financial problems recently, hasn't it?
04:09Do you mean the slurry leak?
04:11Well, the local water was contaminated so the water company fined Moira and our investment into the farm helped pay for it.
04:18Completely?
04:20There wasn't any money to spare?
04:22No.
04:23Which is why Moira took the deals with Celia to help keep the place afloat.
04:27She must have been desperate to stop the farm from going under again.
04:30Well, wouldn't you have been?
04:32I mean, yeah, yeah, she was terrified.
04:34She nearly lost everything.
04:36This farm is her life.
04:39How desperate do you think Moira was?
04:41Look, I know how this could look if you didn't know Moira, but she wouldn't risk it all.
04:45Not on something dodgy.
04:46Not knowingly.
04:47We all want this farm to work and we're proud of how it runs.
04:50There's nothing hidden here.
04:51No secrets waiting to come out.
04:54We're all above board.
04:56Especially Moira.
04:57About half one, quarter two.
05:04Did you happen to notice Mr Walter's car?
05:07A black 4x4 parked nearby?
05:09I can't say I did, no.
05:12And once you parked at the village hall, where did you go?
05:15To Laurel's house.
05:17I wanted to borrow a bike lock off Arthur.
05:19That's Laurel's son.
05:20I mean, I was there for, what, around half an hour?
05:24Lots of arounds and abouts here.
05:26Well, I wasn't checking the time every minute.
05:29So then you set off to go to Manchester?
05:32Yeah.
05:33Well, I had that job to do.
05:35And then I also knew that the bike shop shut at five o'clock.
05:38So, well, I didn't get very far though because the road was gridlocked because of the crash.
05:44So, well, I parked the van in a lay-by and I got a taxi home.
05:50I mean, you can check with the cab firm.
05:52We will.
05:53So then you went back the following day, picked up the van and drove it straight here?
05:57Yeah.
05:58The CCTV will back me up.
06:00For everything that happened at the depot, yes.
06:03So, who else has keys to the vans?
06:06Well, there's two keys for each vehicle.
06:11Spares are kept in that lockbox there.
06:14But the other key for that van went missing a while back.
06:20Did you not report that?
06:22Waste your time.
06:24Look, stuff goes missing from time to time.
06:26It's never usually a big deal.
06:28Until now.
06:30So, the van was never left unlocked.
06:32Either outside the village hall or in the lay-by.
06:35No, of course not.
06:36For insurer's purposes.
06:38And it was still locked when you went back the following day?
06:41Yeah.
06:42So, here's the problem, Mr Sharma.
06:45A dead body ends up in your locked vehicle and you had the only available key.
06:49If you think I'd hide a dead body in my own van at my own depot.
06:54I mean, well that's just insane.
06:56Sorry to interrupt.
06:58You wanted.
06:59Right.
07:00Okay.
07:01The depot is a crime scene until further notice.
07:03I'll need a list of all staff, please.
07:06Is that it?
07:08We'll be in touch again.
07:10Please don't leave town.
07:13Is there anything you need to tell me?
07:19Like what exactly?
07:20Well you were the last person driving that van and suddenly there's a body in there.
07:23It's freaking me out.
07:24Yeah, well me too.
07:25But I can assure you, one million percent, it had nothing to do with me.
07:30I'm a lot of things, Caleb.
07:33But I'm no killer.
07:35Well, someone is.
07:37Nothing like a police investigation to increase profits, eh?
07:41Oh, no, on the house.
07:43Your needs greater than mine.
07:44Oh, thanks.
07:50Hey, erm, just thought you'd want to know a body's been found up at the depot.
07:55In one of the vans.
07:57The police said, eh, they haven't identified it yet, but they're talking like it's that
08:02Raybug.
08:05Sorry, eh, I didn't see you there.
08:08Er, did they know what happened to him?
08:10He was wrapped in tarpaulin, so...
08:12He was killed?
08:13Honestly, I'm fine.
08:15Sorry, did they mention if anybody else was involved?
08:19Like, Celia?
08:21No.
08:22Sorry.
08:23She'll still be out there, Paddy, just like your dad is.
08:26Are you alright, Dylan?
08:27I don't know.
08:29Are you?
08:30It doesn't make sense.
08:32How did he end up dead?
08:35Hey!
08:36How are ya?
08:37Still breathing.
08:38You guys done?
08:40Yeah, I think so.
08:42Well, I need to go anyway, but, erm, I'll see you all later.
08:46Hey.
08:47Hey.
08:48How'd it go?
08:49Wasn't too hard on you, was it?
08:50No.
08:51No, not really.
08:52Will you be okay?
08:53No, we're gonna have to be.
08:55We're tough, us farm girls, though, aren't we?
08:57Hm.
08:58Thanks for coming.
09:01Right, so come on then, let's get this over with.
09:03I'll just wait for DS Walsh to arrive.
09:08Hello again.
09:09I'm leading this investigation.
09:11Oh, you'd be better off looking for Celia or that rave bloke instead of coming in here
09:14hassling in some people.
09:16We are still looking for her.
09:18But not him.
09:19Seeing as you found his body at the depot, wrapped and stuffed in the back of a van.
09:22What?
09:23My brother owns the depot.
09:24Well, we can't confirm anything.
09:26We haven't formally identified the body yet.
09:28So, Mrs Stingle, I think it's best if we get started with some questions, okay?
09:32But it is murder.
09:33The matter we're investigating is extremely serious, far more than routine.
09:38Every single detail counts and we are relying on you to be entirely honest.
09:43Admissions, or half-truths, could land you in real trouble.
09:48So, even though she tried to con you, you still ended up in business together.
10:03How did that happen?
10:04Well, she was working for the Tates at home farm.
10:07And they were trying to get me to sell up.
10:09Then she double-crossed Kim and Joe and came clean to me about it.
10:14So I thought maybe I could trust her after all.
10:17Stupid, really.
10:18Right.
10:19And then she started offering joint contracts.
10:22Yeah, she wanted to use my name and reputation.
10:25She had good contacts, so it was a win-win.
10:27And did you?
10:28Win?
10:29A lot?
10:30Well, we were doing all right, yeah.
10:32You didn't question where the money came from?
10:35No.
10:36We had no reason to.
10:38Why do you think Celia was so keen to tie herself to your farm?
10:43I'm trying to work that out for myself.
10:46I suppose she was wanting to use my business as a cover.
10:50And it was on its last legs.
10:51I was an easy target.
10:53Just before Christmas, you attacked Celia in the Woolpack pub.
10:56Why?
10:57It wasn't an attack.
10:59I slapped her.
11:00I know I shouldn't have, but I was furious.
11:03I'd seen that she'd used my signature and was fiddling invoices.
11:07And I panicked because I thought she was going to drag my reputation down with hers.
11:11But I severed all ties with her after that.
11:13And do you often resort to violence?
11:15No.
11:16I just lost control.
11:18I massively regretted it.
11:19Why didn't you report that?
11:21The fiddling invoices?
11:22Because she was trying to buy my silence.
11:25She told me to take the money and carry on.
11:28I said no and I know I should have reported her.
11:31But the truth is, I wanted rid.
11:34She was trouble and I didn't know how far she was going to take things.
11:38I know I've made mistakes.
11:40But other than the contract, I am not part of her sick operation.
11:44You're fine.
11:48You sure?
11:49Well, it wasn't the love of my life.
11:51He's gone.
11:52I'll get over it.
11:53It seems like you already have.
11:55We're not even positive it's him yet.
11:57Dead or alive.
11:58Ray wasn't the man I thought he was.
11:59So there's no point grieving over somebody that, you know, you don't really care about.
12:04But you need to let something out.
12:05Some emotion.
12:06Oh, Nicola, please stop going on about it.
12:07My head's so full.
12:08You've got customers anyway.
12:09This conversation isn't over.
12:12It's for me.
12:15You okay?
12:16Oh, God, you gave me a job.
12:17I was just talking to myself.
12:19Why are you not at work?
12:21I've called in sick.
12:22What, again?
12:23You can't keep taking sickies.
12:24You've got a job.
12:25That's not right.
12:26Well, after what you've done, you don't get to lecture me about what's right and wrong.
12:30Arthur, you should know that Ray's body's been found.
12:37And I will dig out any copies of my contracts and paperwork.
12:43Would that help?
12:44There might be something in there to help you find Celia.
12:47Or Bear, even.
12:48That would be useful.
12:50Yeah, and I'm happy to come down to the station and ask more questions.
12:53Whenever.
12:54Appreciated.
12:55We'll be in touch.
12:56Thanks again.
12:57Bye.
12:58Right, you.
13:05Bed rest.
13:06You've had a day and a half.
13:08Hmm.
13:09Says you.
13:10You did well.
13:11Hmm.
13:12Did I?
13:13I thought she was judging every single word.
13:15Well, it's just how they all look.
13:17Well, let's just hope that's the end of it, eh?
13:20We've got enough to think about waiting for your biopsy results.
13:23I am gonna dust off my dancing shoes when we find where his grave is.
13:28The horrors he put our April and Gillan through.
13:31I know.
13:32It beggars belief.
13:33They're just kids.
13:35They're so easily led and those monsters took full advantage of that.
13:39Not just kids though, is it?
13:41I can't believe that I have fell for Celia's act myself.
13:43You're not the only one.
13:45They have smashed my family to bits.
13:48Oh, luck done in when she heard.
13:50I played everyone.
13:52Probably stitched you all up.
13:58One have you had?
13:59Oh, just the one.
14:00But I doubt this will be my last.
14:02Is Moira talking to them now?
14:05Oh, she's got so much going on.
14:07She'll be fine.
14:08Oh, hopefully.
14:09But what you said to the police about her is true.
14:12She loves that farm.
14:13She wouldn't be stupid enough to throw it all away like that.
14:16Well, whatever's happened, Moira's the victim, not the villain.
14:20If anyone's responsible for this mess, it'll probably be that of Celia.
14:24She'll have bumped her son off, done a runner and left Moira tangled up in it.
14:28So Ray is dead?
14:30Yeah.
14:31Well, it's not confirmed yet, but...
14:33Yeah.
14:34I probably should have started with that bit.
14:36This is crazy!
14:37Yeah, tell me about it.
14:39Look, uh, hadn't, uh, got the toilet, I'll get us a drink and we'll have a proper chat, yeah?
14:44Yeah.
14:45You're singing Moira's praises now.
15:13That's not gonna help us, is it?
15:15I'm not letting her go down for something she didn't do.
15:17Moira Dingle.
15:18Drug baron and slave driver.
15:20She's gonna get a slap on the wrist and that's it.
15:22Remember the plan.
15:24She needs no choice but to sell us that farm.
15:27Why are you helping her?
15:28You're making it harder for me.
15:30This was meant to be a tax fiddle for farmhands' wages.
15:33Now she's neck deep in people trafficking, drugs, now murder!
15:37Are you sure?
15:38Are we absolutely certain that he was murdered?
15:40Well, seeing as they found his body wrapped up in the back of a van, I'd say, yeah, they're
15:43pretty damn sure.
15:45That's weird.
15:46What exactly did you see when you went up to Celia's farm?
15:49Well, I wasn't greeted with a corpse and I didn't murder him.
15:53If that's what you're thinking.
15:54I'm sure the police would be very interested to know that you were up at the farm the day
15:58before the farm raised body.
15:59I'm sure the police would be a lot more interested in watching a video of your sister stab John
16:03in the neck.
16:07Yeah.
16:08So, now that you're back in your little box, have the police found the evidence that
16:14you stashed yet?
16:15They're just questioning her.
16:16Let's hope they find it.
16:18What happens if they never search?
16:20And what if they search and they never find anything?
16:22Don't even think about moving those ID cards.
16:26We had a plan.
16:28Stick to it.
16:30Do you think Celia did it then ran off?
16:40Listen, you're gonna have to speak to me before the police do.
16:43I'm worried about you, Dylan.
16:46I just can't get my head around it, alright?
16:49And I know I shouldn't care, it's just...
16:52No, you shouldn't.
16:53He was evil.
16:56He didn't stand a chance.
16:59What do you mean?
17:01With a mum like that, this...
17:02This all could have been different, alright?
17:04He didn't deserve to be killed.
17:10Dylan.
17:11Mate.
17:15You okay, love?
17:17Yeah.
17:18I'm fine.
17:19Just...
17:20I'm worried about him.
17:21I'd better...
17:22Let me know if we can help, yeah?
17:29It's horrible seeing him like this.
17:32I know.
17:33Poor kid.
17:34It's gonna take him time to get his head around being groomed and controlled, isn't it?
17:38Unpicking it all.
17:39But we can help, right?
17:40Yeah, of course.
17:43I hate to say it, but...
17:46I'm glad Ray's gone.
17:48Me too.
17:49I mean, he must have had a hundred enemies.
17:52Yeah, I suppose.
17:54Anyway, erm...
17:55Leo was angling for a takeaway before.
17:57Smart kid.
17:58I can't run your face cooking, so...
18:00Maybe I'll get your mum to make us a takeaway from the pub.
18:03Staff discount.
18:04Whatever.
18:05Right, that won't be long.
18:07Alright, that won't be long.
18:38Joe Tate?
18:40Yeah.
18:41Come in.
18:42Thanks.
18:44I'm DS Walsh.
18:45This is DC Stewart.
18:47We'd like to ask you some questions relating to Celia Daniels.
18:51Okay.
18:52Can I ask why?
18:53Well, we believe you were the landlord to Celia, and her son, Ray Walters.
18:57Yeah, that's right.
18:59Well, technically my step-grandmother, she owns the estate and I just helped run the place.
19:05Yeah, they rented a property.
19:08Modern slavery.
19:10Horrible business.
19:11I mean, I'll answer any questions you have.
19:13Unfortunately, I won't be much help.
19:14I didn't really know Celia very well.
19:16You should probably speak to...
19:18Ooh.
19:19Have you spoken to Moira Dingle?
19:22Yeah, she was very, erm...
19:25Involved.
19:26Why the emphasis on the word involved?
19:28Ah.
19:29Probably shouldn't have said anything.
19:31Just listening to rumours.
19:33What rumours?
19:34Just that things weren't necessarily above board.
19:37You know?
19:38We looked into it as landlords.
19:39We didn't find anything, unfortunately.
19:41We all just know that they were thick as thieves.
19:44Thieves?
19:45It's a saying.
19:46You know, like...
19:47No smoke without fire.
19:51Coffee.
19:52Coffee?
19:53Coffee.
19:54Thanks.
19:55What are you thinking?
20:14I'm thinking...
20:16When we get back...
20:18We should put a request in for a search warrant.
20:20Won't hurt to surprise Moira Dingle tomorrow.
20:33Have you asked how long it's gonna take?
20:37Can you?
20:39The less I have to do with them, the better.
20:42They'll be dining out if they start digging into my past.
20:45Well, if you haven't done anything wrong, you've got nothing to worry about.
20:47There's no if about it.
20:49It has to be Celia.
20:52Now, Ray's dead and she's gone missing.
20:54It is the only thing that makes sense.
20:57Even though none of this really makes any sense.
20:59Yeah, I'm not so sure.
21:00I would Celia get her body into one of that lads.
21:05I reckon it's someone closer to home.
21:29That's what we call it.
