00:00Mackie trained to be a detective with your dad.
00:02What is he doing here, Pat?
00:04He's bent. He's a killer, for God's sake.
00:06We three okay?
00:07Man's been shot dead on the moors.
00:09Todd Drake. He's epileptic,
00:11and he lived and worked on Borngate Farm.
00:13Todd Drake was dead before he was shot.
00:15If he was shot after he died,
00:17what was the cause of death?
00:18Hey! Police!
00:19Somebody needs to go in the ambulance with that one.
00:21Zav Palmer. Ban the burn.
00:23There's a great big fire up on the moors
00:25and Pat's just called to say that Soph and some of the mates are still up there.
00:28Come on, come on!
00:30Come on, come on if you can!
00:31What's going on here?
00:32Here you go!
00:33Have they found someone else?
00:58Thank you, come on.
01:00Fire's just about under control.
01:02Have they found Sophie?
01:03Don't think so.
01:04You sure this is the Zav Palmer fellow then?
01:07Positive.
01:09Another body on Benson land.
01:11I mean, why here?
01:13Near Todd Drake?
01:15That's a shotgun wound.
01:19Another shotgun death, sir?
01:21This is the man that gave you in deep of the slip yesterday.
01:23Hmm.
01:24Top police in Marshall.
01:25Commendation worthy.
01:26Thank you, Babak.
01:27Any connection between the victims?
01:29Er, yeah.
01:30The farmer, Jeff Dixon, pulled a shotgun on Zav Palmer yesterday.
01:33Threatened to kill him.
01:35And Todd Drake lived and worked on the same farm.
01:37This Mr Dixon sounds like a person of interest to me.
01:40So, where is he?
01:41No sign of Dixon when forensics were at Todd's caravan yesterday.
01:45Okay, we'll find him.
01:46Now, speak to the fire investigation team.
01:49How did the fire start?
01:51Was it accidental caused by the Benson's Heatherburn?
01:55Or was it deliberate?
01:56The killer covering their tracks.
01:59Two murders in two days is gonna spread quicker than the bloody fire,
02:02so we'll keep a lid on this, yes?
02:05The identity of the victim stays with us.
02:07Understood?
02:08Yeah.
02:09Good.
02:10Well, the A's with the uniform.
02:12We had the teenagers on the moor.
02:13I want to know as soon as they've been found and interviewed,
02:16who was here, what they were doing, and what did they see.
02:20And while we track down Jeff Dixon,
02:22I'd like to know if these two victims knew each other.
02:24So if there is a connection, find it.
02:40What?
02:42Sophie.
02:43Thank God for that.
02:44How is she?
02:45How is she?
02:46She's a bit shaken up, but she's okay.
02:47She got separated from her mates in the panic and lost her bearings, but they're gonna check her over.
02:51What about the girl I found?
02:53I've seen her.
02:54She's banged up, but she's alright.
02:55What were you doing up there?
02:56I can't get anything out of them.
02:57So, you alright?
02:58So, you alright?
02:59Um, listen, you won't be able to talk to me in part officially, because we're family, but you'll have to give a statement when you're ready, yeah?
03:02Hey, what's this about another dead body?
03:03Who told you that?
03:04Fluttered my eyelashes at a fireman.
03:05So, is there a serial killer or what?
03:06Can you just not spread any rumours, because we're trying not to panic everybody?
03:07Who is it?
03:08Who died?
03:09It's nobody that you know.
03:10You just take care of yourself, alright?
03:11All right?
03:12What about the girl I found?
03:13I've seen her.
03:14She's banged up, but she's alright.
03:15What were you doing up there?
03:16I can't get anything out of them.
03:17So, you alright?
03:18Um, listen, you won't be able to talk to me in part officially, because we're family, but you'll have to give a statement when you're ready, yeah?
03:21Hey, what's this about another dead body?
03:23Who told you that?
03:24Fluttered my eyelashes at a fireman.
03:25So, is there a serial killer or what?
03:27Can you just not spread any rumours, because we're trying not to panic everybody?
03:30Who is it?
03:31Who died?
03:32It's nobody that you know.
03:33You just take care of yourself, alright?
03:34See that?
03:35What were they doing on the moors at 4am?
03:37They're teenagers.
03:38You know, we did stupid stuff when we were their age.
03:40Listen, what's all this about you being outsmarted by the second murder victim?
03:44Who told you that?
03:46Babak texted me.
03:47Oh, my God.
03:48My head was spinning.
03:49It was all that stuff with the commendations, and then you texted me every four seconds, so I messed
03:53up, alright?
03:54Alright, alright.
03:55Sorry.
03:56Look, before all this kicked off, I was going to do some more Mackie stuff.
04:03These are coppers that your dad and Mackie work with.
04:06We're all retired now.
04:07Do you know any of them?
04:09No.
04:10No, I don't think I do.
04:11Why don't you ask my mum?
04:12She might remember.
04:13Yeah.
04:14Just be careful what you say, alright?
04:15Alrighty.
04:16No, I know.
04:17I understand, Mr Clifford.
04:19No, it's scary.
04:20Right, close your windows if you're worried about the smoke.
04:23Yes, yes.
04:24So they're only evacuating the houses closest to the moors as a precaution, okay?
04:29Okay, okay.
04:30Well, I'll give that a go.
04:31Alright, then you stay safe now.
04:32Okay, bye-bye.
04:33Bye for now.
04:34Bye for now.
04:35Right, I promise you she's not been in that thing all morning, just most of it.
04:38I'm up to me neck with colds about the fire.
04:41And what's all this about another body?
04:44My lips are sealed.
04:46So it's true then.
04:47Right, right.
04:48Right, where the hell have I put my keys in now?
04:50Oh, hey.
04:51Would you?
04:52Shh, shh, shh.
04:53Would you have a look at this for me quick?
04:54Names of all coppers.
04:56Would you help fill in the blanks?
04:58Yeah.
04:59Oh, my.
05:01I haven't seen these names in a while.
05:03Er, right.
05:05Nige.
05:06Nigel Linwood.
05:07He lives in Spain now.
05:08And his fourth wife.
05:09Jim B.
05:10Oh, right, yeah.
05:11That'll be Jim Baxter.
05:12Oh, he died just after Bren, actually.
05:16Tempo.
05:17Yeah.
05:18Oh.
05:19Bren did not like him.
05:21No?
05:22No.
05:23Who's he?
05:25Sorry, Molly Marshall.
05:27Oh, hello, Mrs Barnes.
05:29So I've spoken to the street cleaning department about the graffiti.
05:32I promise you I'll keep pushing them, okay?
05:35Bye-bye.
05:36Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye.
05:37Oh, those bloody red axes.
05:39Right.
05:40Where were we now?
05:41Tempo.
05:43Fraser Tempest.
05:44Yeah, Bren thought he was a bit of a liability, actually.
05:48Mackie won't keen, either.
05:50Liked to drink.
05:51Er, got in the way of a few cases, I think.
05:54Took early retirement.
05:56Is he still local?
05:58Ish.
05:59Er, hang on a minute.
06:01I might, um...
06:04I might have his details in there, actually.
06:06There you go.
06:07Right, I've got to go.
06:08I've got to get over to Tony's.
06:09He's not answering his blooming phone.
06:11Bye-bye.
06:12Bye-bye, beautiful.
06:13Bye-bye.
06:14So, what are you asking me for, anyway?
06:16Mackie will tell you more than I can.
06:18It's a surprise for Mackie's birthday.
06:20I'm getting some of the old-timers together.
06:23But I won't invite Tempo.
06:27All right.
06:28I've got to go.
06:29See you later.
06:30Bye!
06:31Hello.
06:32What are you doing there?
06:44Where's Tony?
06:45Oh, he's, er...
06:46He's upstairs fretting about Donna moving back in.
06:48I've offered to give the Tideline another coat while he's, er...
06:50...fannying about with his council stuff.
06:52You see, I'm nice like that.
06:53He's a good dad.
06:54Yeah, well, he couldn't cut in to save his bloody life.
06:57Erm...
06:58Just wondering, do you fancy meeting up for a drink later?
07:01I mean, er...
07:02It should be nice to catch up properly, you know.
07:05From what I've missed.
07:11Molly Marshall.
07:12Yeah.
07:13Hello?
07:14Thanks for painting, Jack.
07:16Was that Molly?
07:17Yeah, she's, er...
07:18She's outside on the phone.
07:19Erm...
07:20I meant to ask.
07:21I went over to Uplands after our chat yesterday.
07:24Who's the, er...
07:25Who's the fancy brunette in yoga pants,
07:27recording the shots and waving her clipboard around?
07:29Sounds like Harriet Benson.
07:31What foot will Harriet Benson?
07:32Haven't seen her in years.
07:34Didn't she have the landscaping company?
07:36No, I don't think so.
07:37She, er...
07:38She runs Crossthill Estates now with her dad, Alan.
07:40Bit of an eco-warrior, actually.
07:41But, no, I suppose, er...
07:42Well, she might be consulting.
07:45Who bought Uplands after you, then?
07:47Er...
07:48It was a company called Orion Developments.
07:51But you'd have to ask the liquidators.
07:52Well, knowing you know, at least, hey?
07:54That's got to be good.
07:55Ah.
07:56Oh, there you are.
07:57We're trying to call you all morning.
07:58Yeah, you and half of Waterside.
08:00Yeah, and the other half have been calling me.
08:02So, have I...
08:03Another body?
08:04What's next?
08:05What's next?
08:06It's the other foot.
08:07Oh, no.
08:08Yeah, we'll do heavy rain later.
08:09The problem is, you see,
08:10the burnt moor land will increase runoff,
08:12make the chance of flooding worse.
08:14Well, let's hope the flood hole does its job.
08:16Right, so...
08:17Oh, but what's the plan?
08:18Oh, I'm going to go down to it.
08:19It's the only thing you do.
08:20It's the only thing you do.
08:21It's the only thing you do.
08:22It's the only thing you do.
08:23It's the only thing you do.
08:24It's the only thing you do.
08:25Bye, then.
08:40A second murder investigation has been launched in Waterside
08:44after the death of a man in his 40s.
08:47Who told the press?
08:48I'm sure you didn't text them.
08:50Is there any sign of Geoff Dixon?
08:52He's not at the farmhouse.
08:54The car's gone.
08:55I really hope he's not the third victim.
08:57How'd you figure that?
08:59Well, Dixon said that criminals have been targeting the farm,
09:02ditching construction waste.
09:04He seemed to think that Zav was involved.
09:06What about Todd Drake?
09:07Well, Todd could have links to the same gang.
09:10They get in over their heads.
09:12Dixon witnessed something.
09:14Dixon is not a victim.
09:16He's a suspect.
09:17He pointed a shotgun at Palmer,
09:19threatened to kill him,
09:20and now he's done a runner.
09:21Mmm.
09:22Interim Pathology Report.
09:24So both victims likely shot with a 20-bow shotgun,
09:27but, get this,
09:29both shot when they were already dead.
09:31What?
09:33So what killed them?
09:36Let's have a look.
09:39OK, so.
09:40Todd Drake suffered a blow to the forehead,
09:43unlikely severe enough to be fatal.
09:45Cause of death still to be established.
09:47We're not good enough for a while yet.
09:48What about the abandoned transit van found near Todd's body?
09:51Has the blood on the dashboard been tested?
09:52We're waiting on the results.
09:54Well, we should chase it.
09:55That could be Todd's.
09:56Excuse me if I don't jump at your suggestions right now.
09:58No, no, no.
09:59She's right.
10:00We should chase it.
10:01Zav Palmer stabbed repeatedly with a long, thin object.
10:04I think a shard of metal or a tool.
10:06Then his body moved to the ditch and shot.
10:08It's unclear whether it was before or during the fire.
10:11So both bodies are moved to the Moors?
10:13Why?
10:14And why shoot them both after they're dead?
10:17The guy's angry.
10:18Unhinged.
10:19Killing them wasn't enough.
10:21Wanted to keep inflicting damage.
10:23Yeah, maybe, but...
10:24Zav was stabbed to death and Todd's got no obvious lethal injury.
10:27Why the inconsistency?
10:29Have we found any more connections between the two?
10:32No.
10:33Chalk and cheesies, too.
10:34Todd Drake had a quiet life, by all accounts.
10:37Lived and worked on the farm for a couple of years.
10:39Man of guard, no criminal record.
10:41Had a long-term girlfriend who died two years ago.
10:44Leukaemia.
10:45Zav Palmer is a...
10:48Well, an unemployed drifter.
10:50Bit of a...
10:51Bit of a wrong and by the sounds of it.
10:52I mean, his mum was in bits, but even she didn't have much nice to say.
10:55Had a few girlfriends, according to her, but she only knew first names,
10:59so Lynn's trying to get the surnames and ID them.
11:02So Zav's crooked, but Todd's a churchgoer.
11:06Doesn't sound like someone caught up an organised crime to me.
11:09Yeah, yeah, but even so, both men shot post-mortem with a shotgun.
11:14Something's got to link them.
11:16Yeah.
11:17Geoff Dixon.
11:19Hmm.
11:20Any news from the teens on the moor?
11:23Not yet.
11:24Some of them went straight home, some went to hospital.
11:26It's proven quite hard to wrangle all the parents.
11:28What?
11:29What is that?
11:32This...
11:33is everywhere.
11:35Doesn't look like you're trying to arrest them to me, Marshall.
11:47Keep a lid on this, I said.
11:49The victim's identities stay with us.
11:51And now there's a video of you online
11:53looking like you're about to smooch one of them.
11:55Why didn't you cuff him?
11:56I was about to, but his thigh wound had reopened.
11:59So I covered him while he put a dressing on it,
12:01I looked away for one second and he took off.
12:03We're already getting calls from the press wanting a statement.
12:05This is the last thing we need in the middle of a double murder investigation joke.
12:08I understand.
12:09Who posted it?
12:10It wasn't me.
12:11This is not the first time you've been caught in an awkward situation
12:13with a suspect only for him to end up dead.
12:15Oh, you've got no idea what you're talking about, Babak.
12:17If you'd not let him escape, he might still be alive.
12:19Babak.
12:22Excuse me.
12:23Joe!
12:33A word.
12:34Are we just seeing the CCTV of you and Zav Palmer?
12:36Oh, is there anyone who hasn't?
12:51Look, Deepa tells me he was talking about you and dating apps.
12:55What was going on with you two?
12:59Nothing.
13:00Babak telling everyone otherwise and Deepa apparently.
13:04Look, I'm only asking out of concern.
13:06I know how personally involved you can get with these things.
13:09Are you really questioning how I do my job?
13:12Just remember who you're talking to.
13:24I've gone out of my way with these commendations to clean up the mess you made.
13:29I can just as easily make it go another way.
13:33A bit of gratitude wouldn't go amiss.
13:37Get fucked, Maggie.
13:42Why are you talking to Mackie behind my back?
13:47I wasn't.
13:48I was getting a bollocking for losing Zav at the hospital.
13:51He was making me go through it all step by step.
13:55At the end of the day, Mackie's on our side, you know.
13:58He defended you when there was gossip about you and Lee Ellison, didn't he?
14:02He's always got our backs.
14:04Just don't get too close, yeah?
14:10What are you doing here?
14:11I'm seeing Mackie for this community safety meeting this afternoon.
14:14You all right?
14:15Yeah.
14:16Actually, do you know of any other landowners complaining about illegal waste?
14:20Tony?
14:21Oh, it's right, but the council won't do anything about it until it's impacting public land.
14:26On a privately owned farm, we've got no jurisdiction.
14:29Well, that seems daft.
14:31Oh, there's Mackie.
14:33Oh.
14:34Bye, love.
14:35Yeah, bye.
14:36See you.
14:37Hi, Tony.
14:38Molly.
14:39Thanks for coming in.
14:40You all right?
14:41Yeah, fine.
14:42Lynn's come through with a list of Zav's girlfriends.
14:43We've got Lucy Hampson, Abigail Midford, Donna Roha.
14:45Donna Roha?
14:46What?
14:47Do you know her?
14:48I know of her.
14:49That was her dad just now.
14:50He's a counsellor.
14:51Yeah, Donna lives in temporary accommodation in town.
14:53She's been there since the floods last year.
14:55All right, we'll start with her.
14:57You with me now.
14:58Why?
14:59A bit of space between you and Babak might not be a bad idea.
15:08Don't let the stuff with Zav Palmer bother you.
15:10I've done far worse myself.
15:12And Babak, he's just threatened by you.
15:15Young lass on the team, showing him up, getting commendations.
15:18Yeah, well, he can keep him.
15:21I don't like the attention.
15:23I don't think he uploaded the video, though.
15:25I know he has his moments, but that would be career-ending.
15:28I mean, anyone could have done it.
15:29Don't waste your energy.
15:35You know the bloke Babak mentioned?
15:37The one he said you got close to last year?
15:39Was that Lee Ellison?
15:42Yeah, how do you know?
15:43Just locker room chatter.
15:45You know how it is.
15:52Did he hear Balsara?
15:53Smooch.
15:54I mean, who the hell says smooch?
15:56I mean, who the hell says smooch?
15:57I mean, who the hell says smooch?
15:58Donna, when was the last time you saw Xav?
16:00Take your time. We know this is distressing.
16:02Donna, when was the last time you saw Zav?
16:22Take your time.
16:23We know this is distressing.
16:24He was here yesterday.
16:39He'd stayed over, but overslept and left in a rush.
16:42OK, and that was the last time that you saw him?
16:44No. No, he came back later, looking for something.
16:48But he had this gash on his leg and he wouldn't tell me how he got it,
16:53but it needed dressing and then I'd run out of bandages
16:56and I told him to go to hospital.
16:58I couldn't get any sense out of him.
17:00It's all right. Just take your time.
17:02Do you know what it was that he was looking for?
17:04I really don't know.
17:07I'm sorry, I can't do this.
17:09OK, all right.
17:12Is there somebody that you can call to be with you?
17:14Your dad, maybe, yeah?
17:17If there's anything you remember or you notice something's missing,
17:21just give us a call. Thanks.
17:23Are you all right?
17:28Donna?
17:30Is that from Zav?
17:38So, Zav visits Donna,
17:42then I see him at the farm,
17:44he goes to hospital, does a runner,
17:46comes back to Donna's looking for something,
17:48then I see him at the chemist and he does a runner again.
17:50What do you think he was looking for at Donna's?
17:52Hmm.
17:54The note on the fridge, by the way.
17:56Zav signs his name with an X.
17:58What does that remind you of?
18:02Paint your initial all over town.
18:04To what end?
18:06Yeah, I don't know about that bit,
18:07but if not, then what's it all about?
18:09Fire services just found a shotgun in the moors.
18:12Armed response says it's the same gauge
18:14as the one used on both victims.
18:16Should be getting confirmation as to who owns it soon.
18:18Fraser Tempest.
18:37Huh?
18:38Pat Holman.
18:38I'm a detective in Waterside.
18:41Off duty, obviously.
18:43I'm setting up a local support network for retired coppers
18:46and I was just wondering if you had a minute for me to pick your brains.
18:48Ah, I'm off out in a minute.
18:50Can you leave me your details?
18:52Yeah.
18:53Do you keep in touch with any of the lads that you served with?
18:57Not really.
18:58You took early retirement, right?
19:00Yeah.
19:01I've wanted a change.
19:02School caretaker now.
19:04Suits me.
19:06Being in the force is a tough line of work.
19:08I wasn't cut out for it.
19:09I heard it was like the Wild West back then.
19:11Aren't you a bit young to be setting up support groups for old-timers?
19:16Oh, it's a subject close to my heart
19:18because my father-in-law was a copper.
19:20Bren Marshall.
19:23Oh.
19:24Yeah.
19:25I work with Bren.
19:27Good man.
19:28Hmm.
19:28I remember his little girl.
19:30He was always bringing her to the station,
19:32sitting her at his desk.
19:33She is a detective now
19:35and we're married.
19:37Separated.
19:38Er...
19:39I'll tell you what.
19:45Why don't you come in for a minute?
19:48Do you have kids yourself?
19:50Mine are all grown up now.
19:51We're kids of their own.
19:54Enjoy it while it lasts.
19:56How was the little one?
19:58Er, she's just had her first birthday.
20:00Had a big party for her.
20:02Not that she had any idea what was going on.
20:03Mackie was there, actually.
20:10I heard that you didn't quite get on with him and Bren.
20:15Do you mind telling me what happened?
20:18What makes you think anything happened?
20:20Sorry, I didn't...
20:23I thought this was about ex-Coppers.
20:25It is.
20:26It is.
20:26A lot of the old boys who retired,
20:27the same stuff keeps coming up.
20:29You know, the stress and the pressures,
20:32the things that they saw,
20:34things that were made to do...
20:35Enough of the retirement group crap.
20:38What is this really about?
20:45OK.
20:46Look.
20:49I know Mackie hates you.
20:52That's why I'm here.
20:57And I've been doing their dirty work for years.
21:00But not any more.
21:02Me and Mackie are solid.
21:10Always have been.
21:23Well, I've heard differently.
21:27And the way that you reacted
21:28when I brought Mackie's name...
21:29I need you to leave.
21:31Now.
21:32Let's just forget about this.
21:47OK?
21:47You came looking for trouble, not me.
21:50So.
21:53Pat Holman,
21:54of Leefield Avenue Waterside.
21:59I suggest you leave now.
22:00Please.
22:06Don't say anything to Mackie.
22:18Yeah.
22:19They came round.
22:20I said to him,
22:21she lives with your detective.
22:24Pat'll talk to her anyway.
22:25I don't think she's out, Al.
22:32Speak of the devil.

25:13yes
25:20you say it's on my land so it's my problem well now it's on your land so you can deal with it
25:21you've already just stay seated
25:22yeah you can't wait
25:24oh come on come on come here
25:26oh
25:27distinction you're wanting a connection with the murders of todd drake and zab karma
25:30you do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence
25:33you do not mention when questioned something you later rely on in court
25:36anything you do say may be given in evidence
25:38after you lot left i drove to the black oars in brackenwell and made my way through several
25:48pints and half a bottle of vodka not exactly the smartest move after what happened on the
25:53farm yesterday well i was upset todd and i had worked together for years
25:57do you think that todd could have been involved in anything criminal
26:01todd not a chance what about zav oh i didn't know the guy
26:07why'd you have your shotgun out
26:08security
26:12bloody fly tippers
26:14oh look i wouldn't have used it
26:16go and tell him we went through this yesterday
26:19if you and the council had taken my complaints seriously we wouldn't be in this bloody mess
26:24littering isn't really at the top of our priority list mr dick
26:27this is not just a few crisp packets and fag ends
26:29this is commercial waste
26:31tons of it
26:32and i do not have the money to clear it up
26:34this is the only crime where the victim takes the hit and pays to clear it up and the people
26:40behind this are nasty bastards and they are raking it in and it is not going to stop and nobody gives a toss
26:46calm down that's before you get into the flooding every other year
26:49my flock is half the size it used to be right because the land is not fit for grazing
26:54i don't have any money for bills i don't have any money for food and my best worker my
27:00bloody friend is dead mr dixon we know that you're upset but you did employ one of these men and
27:07threatened to kill the other so we just need to make sure everything's nice and clear for your statement okay
27:12good right uh the black horse is there anyone that can confirm you were there
27:20it was karaoke night i did agadoo and then i did wannabe
27:27a room full of people witnessed me butchering a modern pop classic but you can ask any of them
27:31and then the landlord it's neil he put me to bed on the sofa for the evening
27:35he's got alibis all night long apparently well it makes sense because the shotgun they found on
27:45the moors isn't his then whose is it it's from the cross steel estate oh bloody hell what alan benson
27:52you hadn't noticed the gun was missing not until you called us i'm spinning plates here running
28:06the organic farm the foundation keep the place from grumbling joe sorry dc marshall ds bradley this
28:13is my dad alan benson nice to meet you now let's move this shotgun business along i'm meeting with
28:19the fire investigators at five find out what started the goddamn thing the sooner we can get
28:25word out that it wasn't our heatherburn the better i think a stolen shotgun is worth a bit of our time
28:30how can we help um do you keep this locked of course we do there's no sign of forced entry so
28:37whoever it was had the code we're going to need a list of everyone who has access and if both of you
28:41could have someone to verify where you were two murders on our moorland then the fire and now a
28:47shotgun's been stolen have we been set up or what did either of you know todd drake or zav palmer
28:57wasn't there a zav that was a loader here or something i think there was a grouse beater
29:02called zav last year year before i'd have to check i take it they're the dead men then you think harriet's
29:12shotgun was used to kill them well the guns with forensics now why did zav stop working here no idea
29:19we don't know every casual employee on the estate have you had any problems with illegal waste being
29:26left on your land recently only as much as any landowner ah here's peter our estate manager one more
29:33thing when did you last see zav look i barely remember the man now if you have any more questions
29:41you can put them to my lawyer harriet give them some turnips
29:45who knew give them some turnips was a euphemism for fuck off
30:02Fraser Fraser what's all this files notebooks tapes stuff i took with me when i left it's all yours
30:12i thought you and mackie were solid i said that because i'm terrified of the man and so should you be
30:21i know Fraser he's got me too i looked the other way i took back anders but i'm a coward so i kept my
30:31mouth shut i want to bring him down i just need help what's mackie got on you now i'm not bloody telling
30:40you you see that's what he does he finds your weakness and then he uses it against you
30:48i didn't want to put my ticket in but it were that or prison and i'm a coward like you
30:57well i'll hand myself in if i have to well you know can you really do it
31:01because i thought i could too you got those from the station not me
31:09if he catches you snooping around you are on your own he won't think twice about doing whatever it
31:16it takes to save his own skin
31:28balsara is not a happy bunny no solid suspect no links between victims and the only lead we have
31:49right now is a shotgun that wasn't even used to kill them and just put them to fire investigation
31:54they've ruled out control burning as a cause of fire on the moors well that's one thing off the
32:00benson's plate so what caused it they don't know but arson is still on the cards my niece was one of
32:07the teens on the moor she's been banging on about heather burning hopefully uniform can get something
32:12out of her and her mates listen um i'm sorry for prying earlier about the ellison it was the last
32:21thing you needed when you're having a shit day yeah don't worry about it fancy a pint my treat i would
32:28but i i can't another time okay well if you ever need to talk about zav or leo well anything really
32:36i'm here and i could do with the distraction to be honest emptiness and rooms a bastard i'll see you see you
32:43i was convinced that frazier was going to call mackie but then he shows up with all this case
32:53files interview tapes there's money laundering schemes with no cash to show for it drug farm
32:59raids with not much in the way of drugs all signed off by mackie what do you think he was stealing
33:04evidence drugs cash maybe i mean there's no evidence of corruption it's all circumstantial
33:11but i can't look at it at work now anyway without all being flagged to balsara i mean look there's
33:18another one 2012 teenager saskia bale burglary all the evidence goes missing while she's in custody
33:25charges are dropped well let's see what else we can find on her and anyone else in there yeah and
33:31there's there's uh tapes what kind of tapes interviews conducted by mackie and your dad i've
33:38only started listening to one of them though okay uh send me an audio file you sure do you think i
33:47can't handle listening to them i don't know you've you've had a rough day i don't want to do anything
33:54that's going to send you over the edge i'm fine i'm fine are you not really no i mean you didn't see
34:02the way that mackie looked at me even if fraser hasn't said anything that doesn't mean he's not
34:05on to us it's fine i'll sort things with mackie right right gotta go just send me that audio yeah yeah
34:13okay bye that's new isn't it he's very good isn't he if you say so
34:33hello sweetheart what are you doing up it's someone outside they were out my window stay here dad
34:43you
35:13I thought it was your night off.
35:36There's more to do here than there is at home.
35:39Sarah's still in London.
35:40Yeah, it turns out being an MP is more full-on than being a copper.
35:49Mackie, I'm sorry for having a go earlier.
35:56The commendations, they'd just brought up everything that had happened,
36:00and all this stuff with Zav Palmer, you know?
36:05Sorry.
36:07You were having a bad day.
36:08You took it out on the wrong person.
36:12Let's move on.
36:18So what did happen with you in Zav Palmer?
36:21I helped protect his modesty.
36:23He got the better of me.
36:25That's it.
36:27All right, forget about it.
36:29I'll shut down the office gossip.
36:31And embrace the commendations.
36:36What you did last year should be celebrated.
36:39There's a bright future for all of us if we can just stick together.
36:44It's OK.
36:45You don't need to give me the sales pitch.
36:47I'm not going to say anything.
36:49I've got too much to lose.
36:51And, you know, you were my dad's best friend.
36:58You've been there my whole life.
37:01What family?
37:04Mm-hmm.
37:06A fucked-up family, but...
37:08Yeah.
37:09You know, ever since your dad died, I felt responsible for you.
37:20Make sure you were taken care of.
37:22That you were happy.
37:24And your mum too.
37:25God knows she deserves it.
37:29But I miss you.
37:31What we had before.
37:33Look, and I know it's going to take some time for you to think of me like you used to, but you will.
37:40I know you will.
37:53Thanks for seeing me, Mum.
37:55Found out I got screwed over the Uplands deal.
37:57Well, basically, my investors pulled out of the deal at the last minute.
38:03Left me drowning in debt, so I had no choice but to declare bankruptcy.
38:08And then today, I find out that those same investors bought back Uplands from the liquidators.
38:15Forcing me out so that they could, er...
38:18Well, snap it up for peanuts.
38:20Oh, no.
38:21Is that even legal?
38:22Well, I mean, the original investment was made pretty much on a handshake, you know, gentleman's agreement.
38:28Oh, that was your own fault, then.
38:30Well, maybe a bit, but, I mean, I needed the money.
38:33Anyway, I checked out who owned the parent company that was dealing with all of that.
38:39Turns out it was Alan Benson.
38:40Sounds to me like a cutthroat business.
38:43I'm sure you've done similar.
38:45You're supposed to be on my side.
38:49Well, can't Sarah Mackey help you out, you know?
38:52Girlfriends in high places and all that.
38:55That ship sailed long ago.
38:56Actually, not so much sail, it sunk.
39:02So is it all over between you two, then?
39:05Yeah, I'm done chasing other men's wives.
39:08Develled the best years of my life to all of that.
39:10And what with me business schemes, and what have I got to show for it?
39:13Sod all.
39:14Oh, come on.
39:16You'll be back on your feet in no time.
39:17You're a survivor.
39:19Like a cockroach.
39:20No, I don't know.
39:23This last year, with losing Uplands and everything else, I've just realised that, er, I just want
39:29something more for me life, you know?
39:32I just want something real.
39:33Oh, bloody hell.
39:35Jack Ratcliffe trying to find himself.
39:38You stop with the jokes, please.
39:40You know, I'm talking here about my bloody feelings.
39:44Anyway, when I came back to Waterside, I realised that, er...
39:52Well, there was one person that I really, really wanted to see.
39:58Who?
40:00You, for God's sake.
40:02Think the world of you, Mole.
40:04Always have.
40:05There.
40:05Right.
40:06Now.
40:06I've said it.
40:07Done.
40:07Well, don't just sit there.
40:11Say something.
40:12Oh, shut up.
40:12Oh, shut up.
40:33No.
40:33Hiya, here's the interview with your dad and Mackie, I've told you about.
40:47I'm Detective Sergeant Bren Marshall, presently stationed at Watersark Police Station.
40:53Also present is Sergeant Phil Mackie.
40:55I'm interviewing Tommy Hatton.
40:58Tommy, can you give your account of events from the morning to the 22nd of March?
41:01Oh, my God, I've been up to this a million times.
41:15What's this about you being caught on candid camera with one of the victims?
41:18Oh, God, I keep thinking if I've taken him in, he might still be alive.
41:24No, Mum, please don't watch it.
41:26Is that Zav?
41:29Did you know him?
41:30Yeah, I did.
41:31You know the grief counselling group I go to?
41:33Well, he's been coming there these last few months talking about losing his dad.
41:37He was devastated.
41:39Zav went to grief counselling?
41:41Did you talk to him much?
41:43No, not really.
41:44Sorry.
41:46Aw.
41:47He's dead.
41:48Poor bloke.
41:49Mm.
41:50So he was the one dating Donna Rowa, wasn't he?
41:52Mm.
41:54Yeah.
41:54I, er, I saw you and Jack last night.
42:04Yeah?
42:05So is that a problem?
42:06Well, I've got to be honest, I didn't love it.
42:11What, are you two, like, a thing now, or...?
42:13No, I don't know, I don't know.
42:15Can I not just have a bit of fun?
42:18Yeah.
42:19Sorry.
42:20You all right?
42:23There wasn't a, er, Todd Drake at that grief counselling group, was there?
42:28Yeah, there was a Todd.
42:29Don't have a surname, though.
42:31Why?
42:32Did his girlfriend die of leukaemia?
42:34Yeah.
42:35How do you know that?
42:36Todd's the other murder victim.
42:39No.
42:40Oh.
42:41Right, well, in that case, it's not a random killing spree, then, is it?
42:44So, hang on, Zav and Todd went to the same grief counselling group.
42:48Did they know each other?
42:50Yeah.
42:50They were mates.
42:51They met there, I think.
42:52But they all were sat together.
42:54And I think Zav would stay at Todd's, you know, when they'd had a skinful,
42:57which I always thought was a bit odd, because they were so different.
43:01There was a sleeping bag at the caravan.
43:04So, Zav wasn't sneaking around the farm.
43:06He was just going back to Todd's.
43:11He had a bag.
43:13Ah, he had a bag.
43:14He must have dumped it before Dixon caught up with him.
43:16Thank you, Mum.
43:18OK, bye, love.
43:19Bye.
43:19Bye-bye.
43:24OK, the quad bike chases Zav into here, and he has the bag.
43:28But when he jumps over that half door down there, it's gone.
43:31He doesn't have it.
43:46Sam?
43:50Might be.
43:54Yeah, here we go.
43:55OK.
43:55Hang on.
44:22What is it?
44:28What the hell were they up to?
44:31Whatever it is, it went wrong.
44:34Zav killed Todd?
44:36Yeah, but why?
44:38And if he did, then who killed Zav with the same shotgun MO?
44:42Maybe.
44:43Things went wrong, Todd got killed,
44:45and then Zav knew they were coming for him next.
44:47Oh, forensics.
44:53OK.
44:55So Zav and Todd definitely both shot with the Benson gun.
45:00Wiped down, one thumbprint on the barrel, not Zav or Todd's.
45:04And it's not someone on our system.
45:09Do either of the Bensons have fingerprints on record?
45:15Do we really think Harriet or her dad could be murderers?
45:19More likely, the fingerprint belongs to one of their employees.
45:22Mm-hmm.
45:22Oh, wow.
45:26Someone clearly thinks they're to blame.
45:27Oh, wow.
45:27Someone clearly thinks they're to blame.
45:52Thanks for coming, Phel.
46:00Thanks for coming, Phel.
46:00We'll see you next time.
46:30See you then.
46:30See you then.
