00:00Thank you for listening.
00:45If someone hasn't turned up in the first week or two, they're probably dead in a ditch.
00:48Nice one, Nico.
00:51Always the voice of optimism.
00:52What?
00:53I'm being realistic.
00:55How long has his tapping gone now?
00:56Weirdo life goes on.
00:57Let's do it.
00:58It's just...
00:59John.
01:00Why is everything carrying on like normal?
01:02Are you sure there's nothing we can be doing?
01:04About me dad?
01:05No.
01:06Er...
01:07No.
01:08Er...
01:09Running out of places just to look really, and to be honest, could be anywhere.
01:13Everyone just wants to help.
01:18Yes, they do.
01:19And they're being ever so nice, but I'm trying to learn to be patient.
01:23Are you going somewhere?
01:24What?
01:25Oh, yeah.
01:26I'm going somewhere.
01:27I'm going somewhere.
01:28I'm going somewhere.
01:29What?
01:30Oh, yeah.
01:28Work.
01:29Listen, we're okay, aren't we?
01:31You and me.
01:32I think so.
01:34Marlon.
01:35None of this is your fault.
01:37No one knew.
01:38He'll turn up.
01:39He'll turn up.
01:43He'll turn up.
01:44Oh.
01:48Okay.
01:49I think so.
01:50I'll turn up.
02:07Okay, well, then.
02:12Come check out what friends have.
02:13I'm going somewhere.
02:15Hang on.
02:17Hi Paddy. How you doing? You alright?
02:20Yeah, I'm alright, yeah.
02:22I really am alright.
02:27Any news about your Dad?
02:29No, nothing.
02:31Must be a nightmare.
02:32Anyway, while we're talking, would you mind stopping by the farm and having a look at one of the ca-
02:37It looks a bit lame to me.
02:39Moira would know straight off but, well, she's not-
02:43You're on the surgery?
02:45No, but I'm talking to you.
02:46I haven't got my sh-
02:47Oh, come on, man. Listen, if we had seen anything going on, or if we'd-
02:52If we'd heard anything, we would've said.
02:53I know!
02:58Sorry, Ross. I'm not blaming you or anybody else.
03:01Celia should be locked up.
03:02Not Moira, I'm just, you know, just-
03:06That'll do.
03:07I'll pop in later.
03:12I'll turn the phone off to you.
03:13I'll light up the house then.
03:15Musking-
03:27Please tell me you've got some good news.
03:32Every force in the country has your dad's photograph.
03:35You'll be the first to know if we do hit anything.
03:37Right.
03:37Right, and Ray's killer, have you got, what you call it?
03:42Are you a person of interest?
03:44I can tell you that we're very keen to talk to Celia Daniels.
03:48And are you any closer to finding it?
03:50I can't really talk to you about the ongoing investigation, sorry.
03:52No, no, I know that, but it's worrying, isn't it?
03:54I mean, has she got my dad or...
03:56Try to stay positive.
03:57I've got a lot of resources focused on tracking her down, okay?
04:02I've got a lot of questions.
04:12I'll see you next time.
04:13Right, look, erm, I've just bumped into the police and the-
04:18I'm probably going after Celia for it.
04:21Yeah, I'm on me way.
04:23I'm on me way.
04:29Oh, okay.
04:32I guess I'll be-
04:33Just keeping my shoes on then.
04:34For my own safety.
04:36You alright Harry?
04:37Hey, how you doing?
04:39Look what I made.
04:42Oh.
04:43Oh, I know what that is.
04:44Don't tell me.
04:45Don't tell me.
04:46That.
04:49Well, whatever it is, I like it.
04:51Harry, why don't you go upstairs, brush your teeth and-
04:53choose some clothes, okay?
04:56Goodbye.
04:59Why isn't he at school?
05:02Because of-
05:03I'm keeping him home.
05:04He was up half the night crying.
05:06He wants to know where his Uncle John is.
05:08So I finally told him.
05:10Told him he'd died.
05:13Good.
05:15Good.
05:18You told him the truth.
05:19Well, not exactly.
05:20You told him the truth.
05:21You told him the truth.
05:23So now you don't have to worry about it anymore.
05:24What?
05:25Vic, you need to keep holding it together.
05:27I'm-
05:28I'm sorry that I don't do the seasoned psychopath thing so well.
05:31You've got nothing to feel guilty about.
05:32You did what-
05:33you needed doing it.
05:34You probably saved lives.
05:36So now, we-
05:37we move on.
05:39Very sick.
05:40Mum?
05:41Mum?
05:43More sick.
05:44We can kiss.
05:45You will just be human.
05:46See you back.

06:07That's how you both присu Sebab Bunun paulino Jefs
06:10for the reason in the challenge,
06:11even though it's hard.
06:12Is everything okay?
06:16Do you mind if I...
06:17Please, sit down here.
06:18Thanks.
06:19Just got a few more questions.
06:21That's okay.
06:23Shouldn't take long.
06:25Mr Dingle, can you tell me...
06:27...where you were on the day of January 2nd?
06:31January...
06:32That was the day of the serious road traffic accident, the one that involved quite a few members of the...
06:37...the community.
06:38Is that the day that Ray died?
06:40I'm afraid I'm not at liberty to confirm any...
06:42...or anything at this stage.
06:43In other words, yes.
06:45So, Mr Dingle.
06:47You're not serious.
06:48We're still ruling people out.
06:50The sooner we can get a clearer picture of everything...
06:52...the sooner we can leave you to your day.
06:57Hello.
07:07I'm going to take a look at the top of the top.
07:12Hiya!
07:15What are you doing?
07:17It's good, you know, the police pinning it on Celia.
07:19Still got a little way to go here.
07:21Come f-
07:22Completely exhausted from lying to everyone.
07:24Even Marlon's like me best mate.
07:27You're totally doing the editing.
07:30How's it been?
07:32Quiet, but we've been over it again.
07:35I've said it so many times I'm starting to-
07:37I can't believe it myself.
07:38You know, kept on a farming hole, escaped, found his way back.
07:42Now he's asking where in the hole.
07:44What did you say?
07:45I just said it don't matter, you know, no one knows.
07:47So...
07:50You must be ready to be let out soon.
07:53Would you trust him?
07:55As in what? Stick to the story?
07:57I hate this.
08:00I hate this.
08:02Just want to get him out of there.
08:03Get him home.
08:07I hate this.
08:10Hey, Dad.
08:11What's that?
08:12It doesn't matter, honestly.
08:13Yeah, maybe.
08:14Oh, bye, love.
08:15Have a good day.
08:17Love you.
08:18Love you.
08:20Oh, what was that?
08:22Why is he so moody all the time?
08:25Nick, if I tell you something, you won't tell anyone, will you?
08:28Um, yeah, okay.
08:31Arthur stole drugs.
08:32What?
08:33Off Ray.
08:34I found them before you could do anything with them.
08:36Oh my God, like what?
08:37Take them?
08:38Sell them?
08:39No, I don't think so.
08:40He claims that he didn't know the drugs were in the bag.
08:42He was trying to be helpful.
08:44He wanted to grab Ray's passport before he vanished.
08:48Okay, so where are the drugs now?
08:50Oh, I don't know.
08:51I'll skip Del Ward.
08:52I'll just chuck them down the sink.
08:53But anyway, it gets, um, it gets worse.
08:57We had a really bad argument and, um,
09:01God.
09:03I hate him.
09:06So,
09:07So, apart from Mr Dingle, Paddy Dingle, did anybody else see you?
09:11Um...
09:12Rona.
09:13And Ross Barton.
09:14Um...
09:15April's missing, so I went looking for her.
09:16I was worried and...
09:17And Ross offered to help, but she came home, so...
09:19False alarm.
09:22And...
09:23Rona, your movements that day?
09:24I'm sorry.
09:25Why is this necessary?
09:26Why...
09:27Why now?
09:28I was okay.
09:29Um...
09:30I cancelled whatever appointments I had.
09:32Well...
09:32Like Marlon said, we were just worried about April.
09:34So, there were no clients?
09:37Yes.
09:39Did you talk to or meet up with anybody that day?
09:42No.
09:43Just Marlon.
09:44So, are we suspects now?
09:45Is that it?
09:46Or are you not even allowed to tell us?
09:47As if we haven't all been through enough.
09:49We're still trying to locate Celia Daniels.
09:51And...
09:52In the meantime, we're putting together as clear a picture as we can
09:55of anyone who might have seen or...
09:57spoken to Ray Walters leading up to his death.
09:59That's all.
10:03So, do you know how he died?
10:05I mean...
10:06It must make a difference.
10:07You know, if he was shot or...
10:09His injuries were consistent with asphyxiation.
10:15Thank you both.
10:16And I'm sorry to take...
10:17Take up your time.
10:22Take up your time.
10:24Did...
10:25What?
10:27Do you believe her?
10:28About us not being suspect?
10:30Why wouldn't I?
10:31Well, maybe...
10:32You've never been sent to prison for a murder you didn't commit.
10:34But this is starting to feel like Graham all over again.
10:37I fucked up my head.
10:38My understanding that he was just hidden there.
10:39I don't know he was a man.
10:40Did you explain to us a behind?
10:42When he was in there and I was��� IXM...
10:43where he was hiding...
10:44what good morning was himself to Aegisuye's weitere meals.
10:46Like, you'll go to Xinasiya, and there's no subconsciously so much.
10:47Are we just got to follow up from the end?
10:49Okay...
10:59You're a good friend.
11:01in my house...
11:02I don't know who he sees.
11:03You're was a kind of a book with the whole facebookremo Gum.
11:05I wouldn't know.
11:06How can you talk about my life?
10:57I'm watching some old films.
11:02Ah, the old ones are the good ones.
11:06Matt Jones.
11:07I can have a film night.
11:08I can have a film night.
11:12I got you some stuff from home.
11:14There we go.
11:17Yeah.
11:18Your favourite jacket, just in case you fancy having a stroll.
11:21Um, new clean pyjamas.
11:25Who's is this?
11:29Who's is this?
11:29It's yours, Dad.
11:33It's yours, Dad.
11:33Do you not remember?
11:35You can get all your old...
11:38You can get all the stuff back when we get you back home.
11:39You can get all the time.
11:40Amen.
11:42Amen.
11:44and the sandwich from the shop is there.
11:49Cheers.
11:51Now...
11:53Dad!
11:54I heard that Dylan has been talking to you about how to answer, if anybody asks.
11:59And I'm sorry if it seems like we've been nagging you.
12:04Who's going to ask?
12:05Well, it doesn't matter, does it?
12:07So, do you...
12:09Do you remember where you've been all this time?
12:13All this time.
12:14Yeah.
12:15That's correct.
12:17On a farm?
12:18Yeah.
12:19What about Ray?
12:24Yeah.
12:25Yeah.
12:26Yeah.
12:28Yeah.
12:29It...
12:30It...
12:31It...
12:32It...
12:33It doesn't feel right.
12:34It just...
12:35It just don't feel right.
12:39It doesn't feel right.
12:41Oh, my God.
12:44None of this is your fault, they are.
12:49Love you so much.
12:54They are so golden.
12:55And I go jump and boom and clench the other three.
12:56Uh...
12:57Let's take a look for the good fellas on the ground.
13:13Let's go.
13:14between me and Ray.
13:17Are you serious?
13:18Yeah.
13:19Locking up.
13:19A confused old man.
13:20What are we doing?
13:21We're saving your dad from a life sentence, Paddy.
13:24Right, that's what we're doing.
13:25And we're saving all of us.
13:27For how long?
13:28We can't keep him locked up in there for-
13:29Never, can we?
13:31It's like we're just waiting for the police to catch up with us.
13:34But that's me now.
13:35You know, I cook Christmas dinner for gangsters.
13:38I hire-
13:39I made evidence and I hit my son.
13:41Well, if you ask me, Arthur was massively ass-
13:44Why are you asking for it?
13:45I just-
13:46I feel like I'm losing him.
13:48I can't get through-
13:49I can't get through to him.
13:50After what he said?
13:51What if you hadn't found the drugs?
13:53What then?
13:54Blimey!
13:55We're talking about Arthur.
13:57Messing with drug-
13:59Laws.
14:00It's not exactly Walter White material.
14:02He would have been arrested within a week or were-
14:04I still murdered.
14:05You probably saved his life.
14:06Yeah, I think you're being very kind.
14:07I wonder if he'd say the same-
14:09Without Jimmy, if he hit one of the boys-
14:11It's not like you slipped on some knuckle dusters and went to town on-
14:14I know, but I drew blood.
14:15I mean, it was actually bleeding.
14:17Well then, just talk to him.
14:19Like a grown-up.
14:21Make him understand he-
14:23He's a good-
14:24Good lad.
14:25He knows right from wrong.
14:26Good lad.
14:27He knows right from wrong.
14:29Just leave it.
14:31How is he?
14:33How is he?
14:34He's up and down.
14:35Keeps happening.
14:36He's fine one minute, then it's like-
14:39He forgets or he doesn't understand.
14:41So then it's-
14:42When are we seeing Uncle John?
14:44Don't say it's gonna be okay.
14:46He's feeling his way through it.
14:50I mean, do you even know what death is at that age?
14:53He's never even lost-
14:54The pet.
14:55Are you serious?
14:56Well, that's what people say, isn't it?
14:58When-
14:59Kid loses a pet.
15:00It's the first time they encounter it.
15:01It's like practice.
15:02Right.
15:03And practice me-
15:04It's perfect, eh, Robert?
15:05What are you angry at me for?
15:06I'm not angry with you.
15:08I am repul-
15:09I am repulsed by me.
15:11And you genuinely don't seem capable of understanding why.
15:14What you did was in self-defense.
15:16And the fact that you had the presence of mind to-
15:19Cover it up.
15:20You did what you had to do so that Harry carries on having a mum.
15:24I'm not even sure it was self-defense.
15:25Of course it was.
15:26How else would it have happened?
15:27But-
15:28John-
15:29Love-
15:29He loved me.
15:30He did.
15:31He was crazy.
15:32And dangerous.
15:33He hurt his bo-
15:34So he had to die?
15:35No, that's not what I said.
15:36Because he's like a pet, isn't he?
15:38Yeah, he was dangerous.
15:39So he should be put to sleep.
15:41Actually, I've got a question for you, Robert.
15:44John was a killer.
15:45So you.
15:46And now I am as well.
15:48What is it?
15:49Like-
15:49Something that runs in the family like bad blood.
15:51What's Harry going to turn into?
15:53Don't.
15:54Don't.
15:55I am not like you.
15:57I can't just forget.
15:59I'm never going to get over this.
16:01Ever!
16:04You.
16:05You.
16:06You.
16:07You.
16:08Uh.
16:09He said, he's dead into the car.
16:10Were you sick?
16:12No.
16:13After.
16:14You're lying.
16:15Now this is warm.
16:16まる dog Un llega.
16:17You're lying.
16:18So, a nice back.
16:20Was to leave it safely in power.
16:22Yup.
16:23My son died.
16:24I didn't have to leave a Ireland in power.
16:26That's what's home.
16:33You were likely asleep.
16:09Hey Dad, do you fancy a drink?
16:12Get you a frothy coffee if you want.
16:14Dad.
16:19What are you thinking?
16:25Right.
16:26Oh yeah.
16:28Huh.
16:30I hurt him.
16:32Dad, I've told you it's not your fault.
16:34Put it out of your mind.
16:36I need...
16:38I need...
16:39I need to tell someone.
16:40Yeah?
16:41Well that's exactly what you shouldn't do if you want to come home.
16:43I mean is that...
16:44Is that what you want to do?
16:45Do you want to come home?
16:46I'm serious.
16:48I...
16:49I...
16:50I wear...
16:51I wear a knoll.
16:52I wear a knoll.
16:53Okay, I just...
16:54I just...
16:55Need to get it straight.
16:56In me...
16:57In me mind.
17:00Yeah.
17:02I know.
17:05Sorry.
17:06Sorry.
17:09It's really exhausting.
17:10I'll come here.
17:14I'll come here.
17:15Um...
17:17You...
17:19You...
17:19What happened to him, buddy?
17:24Get that coffee.
17:29What happened to him?
17:34Hey, everything okay?
17:38Just wanted to see you.
17:39Rumor.
17:44You know, before when that cop was round, I was talking to her about that day.
17:48You weren't really quiet.
17:52Did I?
17:53Yeah, it was like...
17:53It was like you knew I wasn't telling her the whole story.
17:57No.
17:58Well, what is it?
18:00I didn't do anything to Ray.
18:02But I wanted to.
18:05So?
18:06We...
18:07We both wanted to.
18:07Everyone wanted to.
18:08No, no, no.
18:09But I actually went looking for him.
18:10With a knife.
18:14I...
18:14I did see Ross.
18:15Ross.
18:15Ross.
18:15Ross.
18:15Ross.
18:15Ross.
18:15Ross.
18:15That bit was true.
18:17I told him everything.
18:18Okay.
18:18And Ross?
18:20No.
18:20No.
18:20No.
18:20No.
18:21He didn't do it either.
18:21If he had, he would have told me.
18:22I'm so sorry.
18:23I'm sorry.
18:24Are we okay?
18:25Yes.
18:26Look, Marlon, I...
18:27I know, I know.
18:28And if there's one thing, this whole...
18:30Catastrophe.
18:31has to teach us as a family...
18:32I agree.
18:33...is that we can't have secrets.
18:34Hold on.
18:36That wasn't why I was being quiet earlier.
18:38I've been worried.
18:39You've been looking at me thinking,
18:40is that who he is now?
18:40The kind of person who...
18:41do that or get Ross too.
18:42I'm so scared you won't see me in the same way again.
18:44You start to hate me.
18:46Sorry.
18:47Sorry.
18:47What was it?
18:47You were going to say something.
18:50It's not important.
18:51You were looking for ways of turning off,
18:52and I figure it out.
18:54Yeah.
18:54Hell, yeah.
18:55I don't know.
18:55Oh, yeah.
18:57Fuck.
18:57Fuck.
19:00Fuck.
19:00Fuck.
19:05Fuck.
19:07Fuck.
19:08Fuck.
19:09Fuck.
19:10Fuck.
19:10Fuck.
19:13Fuck.
19:14Fuck.
19:16Fuck.
19:17Fuck.
19:19Fuck.
19:20Fuck.
19:20Fuck.
19:20Fuck.
19:21Fuck.
18:56And hey you, why have we not been picking up your phone?
19:00We've been out a lot.
19:01We've been searching and the reception hasn't been great.
19:03Right, that's it. I'm coming on.
19:05What?
19:06I'm coming on and I'm going to do the pestering for you.
19:08The police, they won't know what's hitting.
19:11I bet they will be sending the flying squad from London to find Dad.
19:16They won't be that annoying, they'll want to get rid of me.
19:18I really don't think you should.
19:19I'm booking the flight.
19:20No.
19:21What do you mean no?
19:22I mean no.
19:23I don't want you to come home.
19:25Things are delicate.
19:26You could easily make things worse.
19:28You could scare him off.
19:29Thanks very much, Pat.
19:30You know what I mean?
19:31Yeah, I know exactly what you mean.
19:32You made yourself very clear.
19:33Look, I was only trying to help.
19:36I know you were, but sometimes...
19:38What?
19:39Sometimes what?
19:40But sometimes you can be...
19:41I can't afford to make things worse.
19:44Well don't you worry.
19:45I'm not going to scare you, Dad.
19:46That way, right?
19:47I'm going to stay here.
19:48Where I'm appreciated.
19:49Mandy.
19:51Mandy.
19:52Mandy.
19:53Mandy.
19:56Mandy.
19:57Mandy.
19:58Mandy.
19:59Mandy.
20:00Oh, hi, love.
20:02I didn't know you were home.
20:03Fish fingers, chips and peas for tea.
20:05Yeah.
20:06Yeah.
20:07Yeah.
20:08Nice one.
20:09I mean, I know you're not a kid, but...
20:12Listen, erm...
20:15I know...
20:16that I made a big mistake.
20:19I still can't believe.
20:21that I let somebody like Ray into my...
20:25well, into our house.
20:26He hid himself from me and...
20:30I...
20:31I fell for him.
20:33And that's on me.
20:36Mum, it's...
20:37It's alright.
20:38No.
20:39Is it?
20:40Is it rainy?
20:42No.
20:43I did she, that wasn't alright.
20:44No.
20:45I did she, that wasn't alright.
20:46No.
20:48No.
20:49No.
20:50No.
20:51I did.
20:52Well, I'm so happy.
20:53No.
20:54No.
20:55No.
20:56I'm so happy.
20:57No.
20:58No.
21:03No.
21:04We talked.
21:06Kappa?
21:06Yeah.
21:14Dad?
